Speaker 1 (00:08):
Motto five.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
If you've got d r C the Talcasian Happy Friday.
Well it was a vacation. There you go. You know

(00:31):
it's Friday. Got a woohoo. Thank you, Joe Direcor Executi
producer thirty five care see Morning show. My name is
Brian Thomas, host and you know me always welcome a
phone call. Sorry for my please an action dexpiration yesterday
phone calls. I feel a little bit better today. I
think I've got all eight cylinders firing, probably just because
it's Friday and because of the rundown today.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (00:55):
Thank you Joe Dreckor as always for you know, lining
the guests up. I just thorough enjoy talking the exchange
with people. It's like I was playing for the phone
calls yesterday. It's I I like the engagement, the back
and forth, you know, the thought process, the exchange of ideas,
hopefully finding solutions to the world's problems or at least
identifying them, and the usually illogical and unreasonable genesis of

(01:19):
stupid things government does. But we got a it's It's
It's It's mark to today, Mark two of the Big
Picture with Jack. Evan and Jack reached out to Joey R. Say,
he said he's got more thoughts on Gaza. And it
was a really awesome Wall Street Journal op ed on that,
and you know, the sort of mirroring what I've been

(01:41):
saying about Donald Trump talking about Gaza. Uh And you
can read it for yourself. I don't have to to
read the article. It's about those beautiful beachfront Gaza condos.
Critics derived Trump's ideas, But what are they offering the Palestinians.
The point being, no one seems to give a whit
about the people in the Palestinians that live there under

(02:02):
the oppressive, oppressive, you know, terrorist Thomas rule. No one's
offering any solutions. All the countries around, these very wealthy,
oil rich countries just seem to turn a blind eye
to the conflict. Hosts thrives, lives, thrives and survives in
this war torn area which really just looks like a

(02:22):
nuclear a post nuclear holocaust wasteland. And so I said,
you know, I don't think Trump has any aspirations or
designs to send the US military to take over Gozen,
maybe make it the fifty first state. But he comes
out with these wild proposals and ideas I think just
to get the conversation started, and that's really where what

(02:45):
I think he's just trying to do. You get people
to pay attention to the problem by you know, saying
something like, yeah, we're going to go in a takeo
for guts and make it into a you know, a
luxury beachfront paradise. Anyway, Jack's take on that coming up
at six oh five, and of course of being Friday
Tech Friday with Dave Hatter and congratulations, I mean he
posted something on Facebook. I say, I can't believe he's

(03:06):
been doing this on this show for eleven years, and
I just you know, it's one of my favorite segments
every single week because we learn so much and he
alerts us to all kinds of things that you and
I can do to protect ourselves from the evil forces
out there that just get worse and worse every single day.

(03:26):
And today we'll be talking about Chinese hackers can access
and record your phone calls, speaking of evil and nefarious
actors out in the world. Gmail a hack, apparently you've
been impacted, affected two point five billion with the b users.
And finally, artificial intelligence will supercharge cyber weapons. Oh joy

(03:48):
of joy. I know, they're usually grim topics, but this
is truly the reality of the world we live in.
He's not making any of this stuff up. He's not
wearing a tinfoil high although he likes to make fun
of himself for wearing a tinfoil hat. Adam Taylor returns
in studio to talk about well you becoming a citizen journalist?

(04:14):
What is the Cincinnati Exchange and how you can get involved?
Write it out ed start a podcast called Joe Strecker
for your podcast. Joe does produce podcasts on the side.
Little extra revenue for Joe. How many jobs you got now,
Joe six seventeen. He's got to supplement his paltry salary.

(04:41):
You say, Todzzinser's got a new podcast out now, just
started with you. Well he went to the right guy.
Joe does a wonderful job producing podcasts. So you can
reach Joe, you know how to do that. And we'll
also get Adam's thoughts on the railway money. We know
jam Michelle lemon Kearny, vice mayor of the City of
Cincinnati's already has designs on the railway money, which is

(05:05):
inconsistent what the promises were made when they sold the railroad,
which is they'd only use it on existing infrastructure. But
as I pointed out the other day, it's fungible. Money
is fungible. You got two piles of money, the general Fund,
and you got the money the railway money that's generated
at from the revenue that's invested. And so since you

(05:27):
got two piles of money, you do new projects with
the general fund and you tap into the railroad money
fund to do what you're supposed to be doing with
the general fund, which is maintaining roads, bridges, and infrastructure.
It's a total payton switch. But you know, it's so obvious,
and this is something that we talked about before the

(05:48):
railroad was sold. I mean I made this point on
the radio. You don't have to be a rocket scientist
to realize that, Yeah, that was a dumb idea selling
that railroad. Anyway. We'll also talk about bitcoin and the
Bengals with Adam Keaylor in studio. Looking forward to having
Adam back. He's a really good guy. Congressman David Taylor

(06:09):
placed Brad Weinstrip. We'll find out what committees he's been
appointed to in the legislative proposals that he's got that'll
be an eight h five, So again a wonderful lineup.
You know I always love hearing from you. Five one, three, seven, four, nine,
fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eight two to three
Talk Ti Fi fifty on AT and T phones or
remember fifty five caresee dot com for the podcast Jay Ratliffe.
We had Mark Metclerk yesterday. He's the President of the

(06:30):
Convention of States. Makes a great argument for the Convention
of States and it's growing in popularity. The idea of
well amending the Constitution to force, for example, them to
work within the revenue they've got coming in a balanced
budget proposal. That'd be awesome. And I just I just
go back to this whole Doge things and that Democrats
are pulling their hair out, screaming and yelling about Doge. Doge.

(06:54):
Oh my god, Hey, you know what Doge is doing.
They're merely identifying fraud, waste and abuse. Those aren't have
any authority to shut anything down, but thanks to them,
it's being brought to our general attention people who otherwise
aren't looking at the minutia of government where all this
money goes. You start talking about, well, gay operas in

(07:15):
Ireland or whatever, and everybody at every political stripe goes, wait,
what we pay for what? Yeah? And the list is endless,
on and on and on, stupid, stupid things trying to
influence the hearts and minds of countries with these messaging
DEI and LGBTQ and all these different programs shoving it

(07:38):
down other countries throats when they might not cot into
the idea. Aren't they entitled to chart their own destiny?
And I know we've been influencing other countries for years.
The CIA used to be responsible for that, and I
know it's still doing it, but now you've got this
entire department which is doing the same thing. This USAID crap. Anyway,

(08:00):
I'm glad they're out there. I'm glad DOGE is out
there bringing it to our attention. And again, Elon Musk
does not have any authority to do anything other than
ferret it out and let you and I know about it,
and of course let members of Congress know about it. God,
Democrats are losing their minds and I don't know why,
I mean, wonder why they react so negatively toward US,

(08:23):
seeing thanks to Musk and the work that they're doing
in Doge seeing the fraud, waste and abuse in government,
and does that bear a political stripe? In efficiency, fraud,
waste and abuse. Shouldn't that be something we can all
rally behind. Lord knows we could use some cutting in government.

(08:47):
We're just so dangerously in debt. And I always like
to point out for those who think that the government
is not too big and needs to be bigger and bigger,
you are most at risk of having your programs because
we are so far in the hole. We're never going
to be able to climb back out of it. If
we can't pay the interest on our debt. You know,
the fiat currency that we rely on and the global currency,

(09:10):
that default currency is going to disappear. And when it disappears,
so does your favorite pet program. Think about Medicare and
Medicaid and social Security. If you really want to put
some some fear behind the reality of the overspending, the fraud,
waste and abuse and government, those are programs that will

(09:33):
must be paired back. Look at the Congressional Budget Office,
you know, to take my word for it. It's reality.
They've been screaming about it for years. Look, this is
just you know, we're paying out more than we're bringing
in where it's like it's like eating into principle. Going
back to the railroad thing. You know, if there isn't
revenue generated from the investment, you're going to start diving

(09:55):
into the investment money that the principle, and then the
money alter disappeared into no source of revenue anymore. Ah See,
I seem to be a little more awake this morning
than I was yesterday anyhow. Five one, three, seven, four nine,
fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two three talk

(10:16):
found five fifty on AT and T phone. Something wanted
to get into. I'm reminded of the underpants numbs from
a South Park Phase one steel underpants, Phase three profit
overlooking Phase two headline ev fiasco. Ford lost five point

(10:37):
one billion dollars on electric vehicles last year alone, five
point fifteen Right now, fifty five K Steve Talk Station.
I'll be back after these brief words.

Speaker 4 (10:46):
Fifty five KRCUH.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Channelnine first one and one forecasts we have wels mostly
sunny skies today. Hi, just forty one though over nine clouds.
WI bill chance of very light rain freezing drizzled to
the north as possible flow of thirty one Tomorrow overcast,
maybe some showers forty two for the high, overcast, overnight
dry though thirty three and on Sunday mostly cloudy skies

(11:13):
in a high of thirty eight thirty three degrees. Right now,
that's about KRC Decauk station.

Speaker 5 (11:17):
I'm Donald Jane Trump. Can I improve this message?

Speaker 2 (11:19):
Shay, you're fine?

Speaker 1 (11:32):
Let me tell you you kill that?

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Yes? Indeed?

Speaker 6 (11:42):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Since Jack Etheriden is coming on at six oh five
for the second version of The Big Picture, just onet
of mind, folks. He was there listening to lunch the
other day. Lots of folks got to meet and they're
really excited about that. He is such a great guy.
And his wife, well, you know, he outkicked his coverage,
which I think further illustrates the brilliance of Jack added
And anyway, a lot of my listeners were really pleased
to see them there, as was I and March First.

(12:06):
This is kind of funny. We're going to be at
March First Brewery on East Kemper, which you're familiar with
Kids First, which is the sporting place where children learn
athletics and taekwondo and things like that. I spent a
lot of hours there when the kids were younger, and
at first when March First opened its doors, I was

(12:27):
scratching my head over the concept, why is there a
micro brewery right here? Because it looks as a micro brewer,
you know where the location is. It seems a little
bit out of place, and it's just right down the
street from Silver Spring House. But that was my initial reaction.
I'm like, oh my god, that's brilliant. It's right across
the street from Kids First. So you're dropping your kids off,
or you're gonna sit there at Kids First for a

(12:49):
couple of hours while your daughter is doing tumblebees or
taekwondo or something like that, or taking swim lessons. You
got nothing new but twiddle your thumb or read a book.
You can walk out the front door right across the
street and go enjoy a beer at March First Brewery.
Congratulations to Darren who is the owner of March First Brewery.
It's their eighth anniversary. And so we will be at

(13:13):
March First on March fifth, which is the first Wednesday
of next month for the listener line. So March fifth
at March First, go ahead, continuing the micro brew tour.
We are sort of we've set off on a course
to do that this year, So market on your calendar,

(13:35):
it'll be March fifth, at March first. Quite a few
people confused by that at listener lines. Anyway, Congratulations Ford
Motor Company. I'm losing five point one billion dollars on
its electric vehicle and software business last year. Keep it
up Phase three profit. Ford Motor Company announced it's fourth

(13:58):
quarter in full year earning for twenty twenty four, which
actually surpassed Wall Street expectations. That's because they're still selling
internal combustion engines. They sustained massive losses in the electric
vehicle and software division, known as Model E five point
one billion dollar loss in that segment, which is a
significant increase from the four point seven billion dollars that

(14:20):
lost in the prior year. Ford also predicts losses will
continue to mount, potentially reaching five point five billion this year.
How's that for a business model? And you know what,
if you bought a Ford traditional gas powered vehicle that

(14:41):
division and Ford is actually performing quite well, generating sufficient
revenue to keep the prompt company profitable overall. So that
truck you bought or that internal combustion engine you bought
from Ford, and you know I'm a Mustang fan. I
used to own a Mustang Cobra. Loved that car, boy,
I had fun with that thing. So nothing against Ford's
internal combustion engine, but you're paying more for that car

(15:04):
because you need to support the billions of dollars and
losses in the electric vehicle category. Can you imagine if
they weren't forced to make electric vehicles how much profit
they'd have and how much less your internal combustion engine
might cost if they didn't have to prop up the
EV wing. There you have it. They Ford caution that

(15:26):
its earnings may drop by two billion dollars or more
of this year due to costs associated with new vehicle launches.
Compared to its rivals in the EV market, Fords appears
to be lagging behind, currently offering only three battery electric vehicles.
So they got three vehicles for sale that are evs
and it costs the five point one billion dollars in

(15:47):
one calendar year. How do you make sense out of that?
And pivoting over New Yorkers. And you can have sympathy
for him or not, but their their energy bills are
outrages because they, like California, are seeking to become a
zero emission state con Addison, which serves in New York
City and the suburbs, proposing rate hikes that would increase

(16:09):
electric bills ready by eleven point four percent on average,
thirteen point three percent for gas service. I don't know
what your utility bill is, but mine doesn't come even
close to the New York average. Utility bills will average
about five hundred dollars per month average, which is one

(16:30):
hundred and fifty four dollars more than five years ago.
I don't think I've ever seen a bill be above
three hundred dollars for the Thomas House, even the worst
possible climate times. We do have a very energy efficient home,
I'm proud to say, though, But you know what, the
thermostats at seventy two degrees all year long. I'd never
touch it, don't have to. Democrats were hoping for a

(16:55):
one hundred and seventy five mile transmission line to power
to New York City with a giant wind in the soil
roller farms in upstate New York. What happened, Well, that
project got thrown out the window because of costs rising. Apparently,
another transmission line to deliver hydro power from Quebec under construction,
but it's going to cost six billion, with a E

(17:19):
six billion dollars they say, four times as much as
Connetison proposed electricity rate increased this year Journal reporting on this,
New Yorkers can expect rates to continue climbing to pay
for these green energy product projects in the interim or
in the meantime. New York Independent Systems Operator November warning

(17:40):
of potential power shortages next year. If that Quebec transmission
line isn't online by May, don't hold your breath that
it will be. And thank you Governor Andrew Cuomo of
New York who mandated the what is described by the
journal as the premature shutdown of the Indian Point nuclear
pant which generated about a quarter of New York City's power.

(18:03):
You also put in place a ban on shale fracking.
You also vetoed gas pipelines, all of which sent New
York Cities utility bills through the roof. How's that working
out for you? New York's giant climate tax five twenty six,
maybe making all the lives more miserable and taking what

(18:25):
your disposable income. And I think that's one of the
farious elements about all of this. Yeah, the more money
you got to throw at a power bill, the less
money you can output into the economy. It's economically destructive,
which may be the point of all of this when
you ponder it. Five twenty six Stick Around Local Stories

(18:47):
coming up. I'll take your phone calls if you prefer
I do it, but one way or another we'll get through.
I look forward to talking with Jack Addan coming up
at six oh five Stick around.

Speaker 4 (18:55):
Fifty five KRC.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
I'm Greg Rosenthal, host of Ben.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
Jovan A nine first one. We forecast today mostly sunny skies,
high forty one. It's going to be cloudy overnight, chance
of light rain, maybe some freezing drizzled north thirty one
for the overnight. Low forty two. Are high tomorrow with
spotty showers and overcast. Guys, it's down to thirty three overnight.
It'll remain overcast and a cloudy Sunday as well, with
a high of thirty eight thirty three degrees. Right now,

(19:22):
if you have ksee the talk station five thirty Happy Friday,
Tech Friday coming up at one hour Kay five one
three some nine fifty five y thre three pund five
fifteen eighty teen te phones. Get that all right, Governor

(19:42):
Mike Dwine propose budget the wine apparently he's come up
with the way for paying for new sports stadiums. Question,
why would the Ohio taxpayers are literally anybody whose tax
want to pay for new sports stadiums. That's a pet
peeve of mine. I just don't get it. And he

(20:04):
plans on doing it without using state taxpayer dollars. No,
he's going to rely on sports Bettingdwine planning on doubling
the rate that those operating Ohio's sports books pay on
their profits after winnings are paid. According to Dwine and
his statement, quote, look, Ohio citizens are giving every single
day millions of dollars to sports gaming companies. It's time

(20:27):
for us to raise the tax on them so that
we can do things to help ohioans. Joe is building
new sports stadiums, help Ohioans, just asking for a friend.
Are there other needs that Ohioans have beyond sports? Just
a couple you said, these are the companies that are

(20:48):
taking all of this money outside, draining it outside of
the state of Ohio on gaming. They got to pay
their fair share. A Republican actually said that they ought
to pay their fair share, and this would make them
pay their fair share. Budget proposed doubling the tax rate,
currently at twenty percent to forty percent and then creating

(21:10):
what he called a initial cap Sports Facilities, Construction and
Sports Education Fund. He said, so that will no longer
be necessary to use general fund tax dollars for this purpose.
Why was it ever necessary for general fund tax dollars

(21:31):
to be used for building sports stadiums for teams that
are owned by private individuals that make literally millions and
millions of dollars off of the sports, he said, What
can that money be used for? The fund once an
actor can be used to help fund professional sports facilities
in both major and minor leagues. Also, the proposal allows
the fund to support youth sports education. Maybe we should

(21:54):
just focus on youth education along the lines of traditional
things like reading and writing and arithmetics. Since the test
scores nationwide have tanked and our children are ignorant, That
would be stupid, says Joe. You said. It can be used,

(22:15):
for example, to help opposeet the cost of sports and
school activity fees and prevent many of how children from
playing youth sports and participating in other school based extracurricular activities.
And it's an interesting figure. We spent a lot of
money on sportsbook book Apparently it was originally a ten
percent tax, and four years later they bumped itto twenty

(22:36):
after more than a billion dollars was wagered in the
first month of operation in twenty twenty three. Priorities, thank
you too, John Kosache, News five Cleveland for reporting on

(22:56):
this one. Got to give credit where credits due. Only
twenty four the tax ended one hundred and eighty million
dollars in tax revenue. Seven hundred and twenty three million
dollars went to the sports books. Most of them happen
to be located outside of the state. Not the only
industries that are located out of the state that are
still operating in our state. You're picking on one industry
over another. Let us see here we are at the

(23:24):
New York and New Hampshire Rhde Island apparently have the
highest taxes on sports betting fifty one percent, Pennsylvania, thirty six,
Vermont and thirty one point seven. And then of course
that means a Mike to Wine can say that, well,
we'll still not be the highest, not the lowest, but
not the highest. He said in talking with some people
in the industry, there's a lot of concern that this
would mean a pullback and eventually advertising and marketing expenses.

(23:47):
This could be less This could also be less promotion.
It could be changing the betting lines. Right now, sportsbooks
charge what's called the viig, a little bit extra for
the line. Maybe that could change. We've seen that proposed
in other high tax states, some of those leading sports books.
Well wait a second. You know, I've never been against gambling.

(24:07):
I don't gamble personally because I think it's a foolish exercise.
I mean, you're usually gonna lose. That's how they build
those grand and glorious casinos. That's with your losing. So
if they pull back on advertising, maybe fewer people would
be addicted to gambling. Just the thought, I know that
makes me argue in favor of the tax, which I'm
not necessarily in favor of, given the where the money's

(24:30):
gonna go. Anyway, talk amongst yourselves. Interesting conversation. Five thirty
five stack is stupid coming up? Looking forward to that
beah be right back after these words.

Be Friday at five forty so yeah, five five hundred
eight hundred eight two three tag time by fickt down
eighteen t phones Fix five KRC dot com for the
podcast stack Oh Stupid. We got a Nationville man arrested.

(26:18):
Happened Sunday night. He's been charged with indecent exposure. A
police founded him running naked outside an Elizabethtown hotel with
a sledgehammer. Hey, do you think it was a United
States made sledgehammer? One of those that's subject to Chinese
import tariffs. The sledgehammer, the color of the sledgehammer, and

(26:40):
the country of origin is not identified in the article. However,
Jason Sheen Hupp, thirty three years old, reportedly walking outside
the Hampton Inn naked with the sledgehammer. According to the recitation,
police received a call about ten thirty pm on Sunday
about a man who was running around outside a hotel

(27:00):
with the sledgehammer. Police arrived. They made contact with Hupp,
who was screaming unintelligible words as a tradition well talking
with a police notice. Appeared to be under the influence
and had glossy eyes. Yep. When I asked how much
he had to drink, Hupp replied, quote a lot close

(27:23):
quote Well, at least he didn't make the use of
the three I had three beers, two Miller lines. Police
were able to get up into custody without any incident injuries.
After being arrested, police officers watched a video of the
incident in which Hub was completely naked from the waist
down in an area with multiple patrons, where multiple patrons

(27:43):
frequent well. On the way to the jail, police said
he asked for another beer. Rested in charge with first
defense first degree in decent exposure, and first or second
offense alcohol intoxication first degree indecent exposure called a classic
B misdemeanor resulting in a maximum ninety days in jail
and to find of up to two hundred and fifty
dollars if convicted. At least as of the reporting, he

(28:07):
was being held in the hardened Kinty Detention Center without bond.
YEP Florida middle school teacher who was arrested for child
pornography claimed he was looking to see if he recognized
the victims. Authority's first lord of the Internet user uploading

(28:28):
child section thanks Liam uploading child sexual abuse materials to
find similar images on August first, twenty three. Actually, investigators
then subpoenaed a Internet service provider and identified the suspect
as sixty nine year old Mark Pentea happened again in
November and December of twenty four. Law enforcement obtained the

(28:49):
search warrant confirmed he in January twenty five, then arrested
after police seized his laptop and found ten images of
children as young as two years old being abused. He
spent amen brother, he spent nearly thirty years as a
teacher of the Palm Beach County School District. Initially denied

(29:10):
searching for the images, claiming he might have unknowingly clicked
the site. Then he later admitted he was curious about
it before telling investigators quote he looked at the material
to see if he recognized the people in the image
and to know if they were in his community. Went
on to say, I know. He went on to say,
I am interested in the problem of child pornography, that

(29:32):
is for sure. I am interested in all children's problems.

Speaker 8 (29:35):
You know.

Speaker 2 (29:35):
That's one of the things teachers do is they make
themselves aware of any dangers in the community. Yeah, arrested
in charge with ten counts of posessing child porn, being
held on a one hundred thousand dollars bond. Jo suggested

(29:59):
that he didn't have any hands on when he was
making that statement of the police, Well, that would be
an appropriate, you know, addition to the story, given that
it is Friday, and Friday's usually involved the arrest of
people who are running around naked. Over to more twisted
reporting in the stack of stupid. A former San Diego
County Teacher of the Year has pleaded guilty to sex

(30:21):
crimes involving a minor. Jacqueline Ma, she's thirty five, was
a fifth and sixth grade teacher at Lincoln Acres Elementary School.
She joined there in twenty thirteen. In March twenty twenty three,
seven months after she was one of five recipients of
the Teacher of the Year award, the San Diego Union
Tribune reported a twelve year old student's parents had contacted

(30:44):
law enforcement to report an inappropriate relationship between their twelve
year old son and teacher Ma. Investigation revealed she had
been sending and receiving sexual images and engaged in sexual
acts with this preteen, as well as an eleven year
old boy. In court, Ma admitted the boys had committed

(31:08):
the acts under duress for her pleasure. Detective also read
messages exchanged between Ma and the twelve year old boy.
Quotes sometimes I think you don't understand that I am
a kid still and this is my only will relationship
close quote. Superior Court judge stated the evidence was overwhelmingly
clear that the defendant took advantage of two children, adding

(31:30):
that she used her power to course the twelve year
old victim into behavior that was he wasn't ready for,
for a relationship that was beyond inappropriate and beyond wrong.
Pleaded guilty to two counts elude acts with a child
under the age of fourteen, one of possessing material containing miners,
engaging in or simulating sexual conduct. Expected to be sentenced

(31:51):
between ready thirty years to life in prison at her
May ninth hearing.

Speaker 9 (32:00):
Here is Gee the biggest douche of the universe in
all the galaxy.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
Five fifteen. I said, We're going to share that Biggest
Fish Universe award with a couple of other folks. Let's begin.
In San Antonio, Becker County, Jerry sentence Amanda fifty years
in prison after a mom found him with her naked
young child. Isaac What the hell? Isaac Benavidez sentenced the

(33:32):
fifty years in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for
continuous sexual abuse of a child, along with an additional
thirteen years for a charge of indecency with a child
bisexual contact. The sentences will run concurrently. July fourth, twenty eighteen,
officers she spotted to a nine to one one call
where a mom reported that she had walked into her
daughter's room to find her naked with Benavidez in the
bed with her for their guest. Investigation led to detectives

(33:55):
to discover that the sexual abuse had allegedly occurred for
more than a year before he was found in the
victim's room. Bexer kind of District Attorney in a statement,
children with our communities must be protected in our offices
here to make sure that those who pray on children
are held accountable. Today, we hope that the community and
the victim feels safer and knowing the defendant is going
to prison. Oh you know it, fifty years worth of it.

(34:17):
Joe fifty fifty. Also sharing an the award, Wile Condoman
charged with public in decency after allegedly engaging in elude
behavior while naked on his porch. This accorded to Waconda
Police Department. Please say they showed up at the four
nat block of Barrington Road four pm January twenty eighth

(34:38):
for a well being check for a man later identified
as Horatio Olio forty four. After the incident was reported
by two young people. He appeared disoriented and confused when
they made content. When the officers showed up at his residence,
please said there was evidence of cocaine use on his
person and inside the residence. Taken a nearby hospital for
medical evaluation, got a search warrant and investigation. They seize

(35:00):
US currency and cocaine. Rest warrant issued. He was charged
with two counts of publican decency, two counts of disorderly conduct,
possession of drug paraphernalia, and possession of a controlled substance,
also sharing any award. Lincoln County Sheriff's Office in Wisconsin
said a forty six year old man was arrested Saturday

(35:21):
night after he was found walking around the town of
Merrill naked. Happened in the area of the Rock Island Resort.
Deputies were called because the man was seen naked. When
they arrived in the scene, they found him naked and
of course drunk. They tried to arrest him, but he
resisted amen brother. After a scuffle, they were able to

(35:43):
put the man in handcuffs and taken to a nearby
hospital to be checked out. He was cleared brought to
the jail, now facing several charges including disorderly conduct, resisting arrest,
and lute and lascivious behavior. And finally, those are the
award winners.

Speaker 9 (36:00):
If you want to play the rest of the show,
the biggest douche of the universe, in all the galaxies,
there's no bigger douche than you. You've reached the top,
the pinnacle of douche.

Speaker 11 (36:14):
Dum.

Speaker 1 (36:16):
Good going due.

Speaker 2 (36:18):
Your dreams have come true, all right. Uh. A woman
in Iran stripped naked and jumped onto a police car
in the city of my Shot in what is described
as a daring protest against Iran's conservative regime. The video
has gone viral, showing a woman stripping naked and jumping

(36:42):
onto a police car. Video shows her she's doing that
Saudi officers from the hood of the car and refusing
to move. Uh took place in Iran's second largest city,
again Mashad. Video shared by Irontian journalist messiev Alinjodd showed
the woman calm on the police car windshield, where she
sat and spread her legs. Mail officers seemingly holding an

(37:07):
automatic weapon, appeared hesitant to touch the woman and detained
her as she was naked. Woman seen yelling and angrily
thrusting her arms in the air as the video clip ended.
Man claiming to be the woman's husband reportedly said that
she has now been taken into care. Local media said

(37:29):
several posts on social media claims she was protesting against
heron's strict clothing rules for women. Nottally, Iranian legislature passed
the strict new law Chastity and Hijab Bill that's what
it's called, proposed to proposing harsher punishments for women and
girls exposing their hair, arms and legs. Oh heaven forbid.

(37:53):
Bill also said anyone found naked, semi naked, or wearing
clothing deemed to be improper in public by some random
dude ims I imagine, can be arrested without question, with
a punishment of up to fifteen years in prison. That
bill put on hold after sparking international outrage from activist
groups and human rights organizations, who accused Ron of quotes

(38:14):
seeking to entrench the already suffocating system of repression.

Speaker 12 (38:23):
Now who can argue with that?

Speaker 11 (38:25):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (38:25):
I was waiting for the help help of being repressed.
In November last year, a young woman stripped to her
underwear in the Iranian university and parent protests to the
against the country strict Islamic dress code. According to the
online videos and media reports, do you think she's been

(38:47):
thrown off a building? Yeah, well sure, along with all
the gay and lesbian folks. No no word from Alexandri

We always hear from him on Wednesdays at seven oh five,
and Jack chimed in with Joe yesterday and said I
got more to talk about, more thoughts on Guyza. Welcome back,

(39:41):
my dear friend, Jack Addington. It was wonderful seeing you
and your beautiful wife at listener lunch on Wednesday.

Speaker 13 (39:47):
Wasn't that fun?

Speaker 2 (39:48):
Oh, it's very fun, my listeners. I heard from a
lot of folks who were so pleased to be able
to meet you in person. And I have a fraturning
brother who just just praised you and Ainsley to death
talking about just you are the nice his people that
he's ever met, and I you have to chime in
and agree with him completely on that.

Speaker 13 (40:05):
Well, you have the greatest and most intelligent listeners. Discussions
were just great. I hope everybody can go next month
and every month as often as you have them.

Speaker 2 (40:16):
Yep, we're gonna be on March fifth. We're gonna be
at March first Brewery, which I got a kick out
of because a lot of people were confused by that.
Somebody coming to me, he said, where's the next listener lunch?
I said March first, and he got this curious look
on his face. He gives to wait a minute. The
first Wednesday of the Mounch is March fifth. I said, no,
you asked me where it's going to be, and it's
going to be at March first Brewery, So March fifth,

(40:40):
at March first. So we'll get that out of the
way anyway, Jack, go ahead.

Speaker 13 (40:44):
We got that straightened out, loud I, let's straighten out
the Middle East. Woke opponents may claim President Trumps, in
his words, own GASA and move its whole population elsewhere
so we can build a Trump med hotel and golf
course there. But we know his heart is in the

(41:04):
right place. Trump wants the Palestinians to have a better
life in some other country that offers more than rubble
and unexploded bonds, and he wants to rebuild with other
countries' money and personnel. Still, there are Trump supporters, volunteers
and donors like me who keep asking questions not just

(41:26):
about whether Egypt and Jordan would accept two million refugees,
and not just about the legal basis for America asserting
ownership of Gaza, but even more basic questions Brian, like
why has America in recent decades focused on occupying political
minefields instead of just containing them. The old containment policy

(41:52):
goes back to the Cold War, after Hitler invaded Russia.
The USSR joined the Allies to Berlin before we did,
but their communist dictator Stalin did not stop there. The
Soviets drew what Churchill called an iron curtain all across
the Eastern Europe. When Stalin next tried toppling Greece, Harry

(42:17):
Truman said enough. He stood up to Stalin, not by
invading the USSR, but through containment, the projection of strength,
including mutually assured nuclear destruction and later Reagan's Strategic Defense initiative,
also economic dominance and humanitarian aide like the Berlin Airlift,

(42:39):
and sharing the truth to combat Soviet lies through broadcasts
to the Eastern Bloc by the Voice of America. You
can still visit the VOA Museum in Westchester.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
It is awesome.

Speaker 13 (42:54):
Peaceful containment did not always work. We wound up going
to war in Korea. Luckily, the South Koreans, with our help,
have been able to stave off Little Rocketman and his
murderous family. But our successful defense of South Korea has
often been disastrous elsewhere. We lost fifty eight thousand Americans

(43:15):
in Vietnam we still when communist we lost twenty five
hundred Americans during twenty years in Afghanistan forty five hundred
in Iraq. Neither country today supports democracy, much less America.
There was an alternative Brian containment. When the Taliban alaud

(43:36):
Osama bin Laden to set up Al Keeda terror bases
in Afghanistan, where he plotted the nine to eleven two
thousand and one attack that killed almost three thousand Americans.
We did not have to invade and occupy the country.
Afghanistan had bled the British dry and then the Soviets
for more than one hundred years that went on. As

(43:59):
President Trump was say, we could have obliterated al Qaeda
camps with long range bombers and threatened that all hell
would break loose if any terror group returned. The same
thing could have happened in Iraq after Saddam Hussein invaded
Kuwait back in nineteen ninety one. George H. W. Bush

(44:20):
and his international coalition twenty one nations, I think should
have turned Saddam over to the International Court in the Hague,
as we did with Serbia's Slobodon Melosovich, and he stayed there. Instead,
Borsh Senior let Saddam retain power and wage genocide against
his own Kurdish population. Bush's son w then tried atoning

(44:45):
for his father's mistake and wound up occupy in Iraq.
A tar baby, if ever there was one. Today, instead
of attempting to occupy Gaza, we should be supporting Israel's
campaign again as Tamas, not with US troops or even contractors,
but with military aid. Yes, eighty percent of the Palestinians

(45:08):
in Gaza supposedly support Hamas, but they have a gun
to their head. Give Israel a free hand, as the
Biden administration refused to do. Israel's exploding payg your gambit,
you remember that it's going to be remembered. History will
remember it for killing terror leaders and not civilians. Let

(45:30):
Israel free as many hostages as they can. Use better
intelligence than they have to prevent the digging of any
new tunnels. Israel's intelligence failures still have to be investigated
by them, and then use economic and other peaceful means
to contain Gaza. If Palestinians can find homes elsewhere, great,

(45:54):
but don't try to relocate the whole population against its will.
Even justice shakings up containment may not give us any
seaside hotels, but America won't find itself in another bloody quagmire.

Speaker 2 (46:10):
Well, and Lord knows we don't need to be involved
in another bloody quagmire. Jack. I mean obviously various stute observations,
which is always the case when you're making points. Ah,
the only can I say some one other for she.

Speaker 13 (46:22):
Can because there's some question about this in people's minds.
The reason that Egypt does not want to accept Palestinian
refugees goes back to Barack Obama. Right after he took
office in two thousand and nine, Obama supported the overthrow
of Egypt's regime by the Muslim Brotherhood. He was part
of Obama's apology tour, apologizing for alleged American imperialism around

(46:46):
the world and especially throughout the Middle East, including Iran.
But when the Muslim Brotherhood took over, they were so
radical that the Egyptian people threw them out and they
brought back I'll see who is still there and remains
a US ally at peace with Israel. So do you

(47:06):
really want to screw that up?

Speaker 2 (47:11):
You know, it's interesting because Egypt didn't want any of
the Palestinians refugees. They didn't They refuse to allow them
to come in after October seventh, and it's you know,
historically speaking, Egypt refused to take over Gaza when Israel
offered it along with the Sinai Peninsula after the nineteen
seventy at Camp David Accords. They just didn't want anything
to do with it, and largely because they didn't want

(47:32):
to be involved with terrorists. You get control over an
area that's filled with a mos terrorist, that that becomes
your problem and you run the risk of a most
terrorist coming into your country. And I certainly understand the
reluctance in that regard, but the concept of rebuilding gazen
making it a welcoming, you know, habitable environment, it seems

(47:54):
to me that the various very wealthy Arab countries around
it should welcome that. And like you mention with aid
that we gave to Germany after we got done conquering it,
like we rehelp rebuild Japan after they were conquered and
they became very successful countries in their own right. You know,
if various nations surrounding Gaza and have to deal with
the spillover and the ongoing wars, whether it's Israel dealing

(48:16):
with it or the Hamas terrorists engaging in terrorist activities,
they should embrace the concept of making it a better
place to live, and the Palestinians under a more stable,
less terroristic administration might enjoy actually living there and not
have any desire to leave.

Speaker 13 (48:34):
I don't let the Gossen people off the hook. They've
been supporting Halmas, yeah, willingly or unwillingly. And I certainly
don't let the other Middle Eastern Muslim countries off the
hook because they have been using the Palestinians as pawns
since nineteen forty eight. But you know, for us to
try to move in there or have other people move

(48:55):
in there, and the whole idea, it's great that it's
outside the It's the kind of thing that President Trump
ought to keep thinking about. But these were not off
the cuff remarks. He says he's been thinking about them
for a long time, and Jared Kushner has proposed something
like this a year ago. So I think we have
to give it a little bit more thought.

Speaker 2 (49:14):
Yes, a lot of thought, A whole lot of thought.
I'm tired of what seems to be endless wars and conflicts.
Everybody is jack, I think everybody is God Bless you, sir,

Speaker 2 (52:31):
Station six twenty two fifty five KRSD talk station loves
Me My Friday's extra special treat with Jack Adaman. It
wasn't in David And of course always a good segment
with Tech Friday's Dave Hotter eleven years We've been doing

(52:53):
this together Tech Friday. Anyway, since I mentioned that the
Wall Street Journal article all about those beachfront Gaza condos
on the Spring, on the heels of Jack Avidan's comments,
maybe worth diving on into it. And I've got a
few minutes here I can do that President's Trump's idea
they write that the US might remove and relocate some
two million Palestinians from Gaza and then own and rebuild

(53:14):
the strip isn't going to happen soon, if ever. But
the idea, however preposterous, does have the virtue of forcing
the world to confront its hypocrisy over the fate of
the Palestinian people. The reaction to Trump's flyer was predictably hyperbolic.
Some called it ethnic cleansing, as if the US military
would round up two million Gozins against their will. Others

(53:34):
criticized Trump for US imperialism, contrary to his campaign theme
of deriding foreign interventions. For those reasons and more, his
Gaza daydream is fanciful, but note the mister Trump expressed
admirable sympathy for the Palestinians in their plight. The Gaza
strip has been a symbol of death and destruction for
so many decades, and so bad that the people anywhere

(53:56):
near it, he said Tuesday at a press conference with
Israeli Permanent and Premier mister Benjamin Not in Yahoo. Who
could disagree with that? He went on to say, we
should go to other countries of interest with humanitarian hearts,
and there are many of them that want to do
this and build various domains that will ultimately be occupied
by the one point eight million Palestinians living in Gaza,

(54:18):
ending the death and destruction and frankly bad luck. Quote.
This could be paid for by neighboring countries of great wealth.
It could be one, two, three, four, five, seven, eight twelve.
It could be numerous sites, or it could be one
large site. But the people will be able to live
in comfort and peace, and will get will make sure
something really spectacular is done. It's easy to dismiss this

(54:41):
as fantasy of presidential huckster who imagine Trump condos and
Gaza gold coasts. But his idea is so much worse
than the But is his idea so much worse than
the status quo that the rest of the world is offering.
The famous two state solution with the Palestinian state next
to Israel won't have But as long as Hamas still
runs Gaza and could run the West Bank, the Arab

(55:04):
states aren't clamoring to send in peacekeeping forces to eradicate
Hamas or govern the strip. The best the world can
come up with is to mauls the two state platitude
and let Gaza remain in a hell hole where Hamas
will revive its reign of terror and Palestinians who won
something different we tossed off buildings. The reaction of mister

(55:25):
Trump's brainstorm highlights, in particular that the Arabs don't really
care about the Palestinians. Egypt refused to take over Gaza
when Israel offered it along with the Sinai Peninsula after
the nineteen seventy eight Camp David accords. Egypt wouldn't even
let Palestinian civilian women and children leave Gaza for a
temporary refuge at the height of the recent Amas Israel war.

(55:45):
As for Jordan, nineteen seventy one, King Hussain killed and
expelled Palestinian nationalists who threatened Hashimite rule. Quote. No refugees
in Jordan, No refugees in Egypt close quote, said Jordan's
King Abdouli the second after the October seventh, twenty twenty
three massacre. Neither country wants Palestinian migrants who might bring

(56:06):
Gee hottest impulses back by money and guns from Iran.
Sellian point that we doubt mister Trump has any appetite
to send in this eighty second airborne to occupy Gaza,
and we know the American people don't. But perhaps his
pitch will cause the rest of the world to do
more to support a post Hamas government in Gaza that

(56:28):
would let Palestinians live in a territory that is better
than Hell on Earth. And see that's what I suggested
the other day in response to all this craziness. You know,
Trump needs to do something to get people off the dime.
He says something outrageous to get people to start thinking
about it and come up with better ideas and solutions.
So I think there's a certain tongue in chet point

(56:50):
that Trump's making. No, we're not going to go in
and own it. At least that's my conclusion, and I'm
glad the Journal shares my view on that. And of
course Tech Frida with Dave hadter coming up. In Chinese
hackers can access and record your phone call subject number
one with Dave after I mentioned imaging, which can be
affordable as long as you don't go to the hospital
imaging department. I'm talking affordable imaging services. Don't go to

(57:12):
the hospital. You're paying for overhead, you're paying for profit.
It's fat bang. Five thousand dollars for a CT scan
is unconscionable, and yet they charge that kind of money
each and every day, plus separate bills for radiologists, reports,
and I don't know, probably get a line item for
just walking in the door. Hospitals are very very expensive
at affordable imaging services. Walk in expecting low overhead, but

(57:36):
that loverhead allows them to do a CT scan without
a contrast for only four hundred and fifty bucks with
a contrast six hundred. What kind of equipment, same stuff
hospitals use. You still't pay for a lot of overhead.
Professionals operating at board Certified radiologists report included in every
image they do MRI no contrasts four ninety five with
contrasts six forty five. That CT scan with a contrast

(57:58):
six hundred, echo cartogram four ninety five and an ultrasounds
only two hundred and fifty bucks. You might pay two
thousand for that at the hospital. So don't you have

(59:02):
that much time has gone by. But it's always a
great thing to have you on my program.

Speaker 8 (59:07):
Well, always a pleasure to be here, Brian, And it
is hard to believe it's been eleven years. And joke,
it's extracudas today and the Flintstones happy anniversary song that's
prior to top.

Speaker 2 (59:17):
It's a good thing he didn't do a loop like
they did on the cartoon and over and over and
over again. Anyhow, we got some problem with the Chinese
Communist Party hackers apparently are listening to our phone calls.

Speaker 8 (59:31):
Yeah, you know this story has been going on for
some time. That was reported last year that you had
Chinese Party or Chinese Communist Party hackers breaking into the
telecom network and at last count nine different telecom networks
have been hacked.

Speaker 3 (59:48):
You may recall, Brian, and I think it's.

Speaker 8 (59:49):
Just good to show you how it's extensive. And badness
is that the FBI had come out by loggo and said,
because of this, everyone should start using apps like Signals
support into end encryption, because due to the infiltration and
the networks, they could potentially listen to your phone calls,
record your phone calls, figure out where you are because

(01:00:10):
everyone is assaults of now, and all of that is
geolocated through the seller networks. So it's pretty problematic. Now
the reporting of it has died off. I've never seen
anything that says that they believe they've fully solved this problem.
Hence the FBI's suggestion that you should use into end
encrypted apps like Signals. So again, think about it, Brian.

(01:00:32):
We've been doing this for a long time.

Speaker 2 (01:00:34):
Forever.

Speaker 8 (01:00:35):
The FBI and out of law enforcement agencies have been
against into end encryption because it makes it really really
difficult for them. Encryption in general makes it difficult for them,
and now they're telling you you should use it, so
it's a bad situation. My real concern though, is not
so much that they can record our phone call today, Brian,
that they could potentially turn off those teleton networks, and

(01:00:57):
since everything in the digital now, the impact of that
could be catastrophic. So it's not good. And we really
as a country if they just got to get serious
about such its infrastructure, or we're in deep trouble.

Speaker 2 (01:01:10):
Yeah, and no question about it. And you know, I mean,
as you say listening to my phone calls, I mean
I think they'd be quite bored listening into my phone calls.
But the implications are as you regularly point out, I
got nothing high, I don't care who's looking at it.
But that attitude is rather pervasive and it shouldn't be.
But the broader implications to shut down, and when we
talk about a larger problems I perceive to be bigger

(01:01:34):
problems like shutting down the electric grid or the water
system or any of those, are truly catastrophic, you know,
riot creating events. You know again, and just doubling down
on your point, we really should take better stock in
ourselves and worry about these things and double down on
solutions to fix them or prevent them from happening in

(01:01:55):
the first place.

Speaker 8 (01:01:57):
I know it sounds fantastical and like it could never happened,
Oh just because see what our government is saying about
this isn't this isn't just you and me making this
stuff up right, And you know at your point that
you know people don't take this stuff seriously. And I think,
you know, I've got nothing to steal enoughing behind. There's
nothing I don't care about. What's there. Okay, that may
be fine to use an individual, but it's not fine

(01:02:19):
for our companies. It's not fine from a trade secret standpoint.
It's not fine for our companies from a let's shut
this down, put this company out of business or worse,
you know, turn off the power grip or whatever else.
So yeah, we really really have got the excuise about this.

Speaker 2 (01:02:33):
Yeah, quick paying for you know, uh LGBTQ plays in
Ireland and start putting that money toward greater security in
our infrastructure, most notably governmental infrastructure, military and things of
that nature. Dave Hadder, we got more to talk about
along these lines. Apparently there was a Gmail hack and
it only affected two point five billion users. More with

(01:02:55):
Dave had Ter from interest it dot com first earning
twenty five dollars now and twenty five dollars late is
very easy to do with Emory Federal Credit Union. So
for every friend and family member or a colleague you
refer to Emory who becomes a member. You're both going
to get a reward at twenty five dollars simply by
spreading the word about the benefits of banking with Emery.
And there are great benefits for banking with Emery doing

(01:03:15):
it for years and years, maybe I think longer than
Dave Hatter's been on this program. I had a bank
kund at Emory. Federal Credit Union rates are great. Service
is superior, and now you can earn a little extra
cash and help your loved ones unlock a world of
financial opportunities.

Speaker 2 (01:03:43):
Cyber attacks and cybercrime are really on the red. It's
six thirty nine on a Friday, and then we're doing
that tech Friday thing. Interest it dot com thanks again
as always for sponsoring the segment. All right, moving over
to Gmail. Only two point five billion users impacted by
this one day, what's the story.

Speaker 8 (01:04:02):
Well, what they're pointing out in this article by and
I said, thanks to AI, attackers are getting a lot
more sophisticated, and so many of the things you and
I have talked about for a long time, you know,
the red flags around fishing and so forth, are getting
increasingly difficult to catch. And they walk to a scenario
which there was a more recent reporting on this last

(01:04:22):
year where now these hackers are smart enough. Now it
might be they're using AI voices so that they sound American,
but they'll you know, try to fish you and tell
you that, hey, I'm from Google. There's a problem with
your account. Hey look, I'm going to call you from
a number that you can find on Google's website, because
remember it's easy to spoof a phone number. And it

(01:04:46):
just goes to show you the level of sophistication they're
operating with now. And because you know you and I
talk about these things, we say, don't do this, don't
do that, look out for this thing over here. Well,
now it appears that you're getting an email that came
from Google. It appears you're getting a call that came
from Google, and you know you're not getting someone on
the phone that doesn't speak English. You're getting someone on

(01:05:07):
the phone or a voicemail from someone that sounds authentic.
And you know, a lot of this they're just using
open source intelligence and spooking techniques, because you know, I
can go look up and if I'm a criminal, I
can go find a Google phone number. I can make
a call using something like Google Voice that appears to
have originated from Google. And while it's a little more
sophisticated than that, if you read the article that the

(01:05:29):
point I want to make the focus is, you know
a lot of the things that we I and other
people have been saying for a long time that you
should look out for, some of that stuff doesn't really
work anymore, because if the bad guys are smart and sophisticated,
and they'll do their own homework and they'll use spooking
tools or work through legitimate Google services to send you things.
So like you know, I could go to a Google

(01:05:50):
forms page, send you a message from that form, and
it will have a legitimate Google dot com domain associated
with it. So the point here is a you've got
to be even more skeptical than ever before. And just
because something looks like it can't from Google. Even if
it's a phone call, you can't assume it's real. And
I'll tell you, Brian, call Google. Sometimes it's sad you

(01:06:13):
can get a human being on the time.

Speaker 2 (01:06:14):
Well, no, I was gonna ask you that. How Yeah,
there a I mean, this security warning related to two
point five billion users. Now is that in mind? How
likely is it that someone really truly from Google would
reach out to you among the two point five billion

(01:06:35):
people that they have apparently serviced, and perhaps even more
than that, and actually call you to talk about your
specific problem when you couldn't even get in touch with
a live human being in Google if you had a
real problem. I mean, it's just preposterous to even think
that that could happen.

Speaker 8 (01:06:52):
Yeah, they won't do it.

Speaker 2 (01:06:53):
They won't do that.

Speaker 8 (01:06:55):
And one of the things they point out of that article,
so there's this newer concept that it's not really new,
but for most people it's new, called past keys, And
you know, this ties back to so many data breaches
and you know, your password gets stolen people using the
same bad passwords on multiple accounts. And one of the
things they decome that article is, you know, even if

(01:07:16):
you have multi factor authentication, turned off, which you should.
Despite all of this, you know, it's still a good
defense against any sort of non sophisticated hacks. That's where
they'll they'll start this more sophisticated stuff and they claim
to be from Google and they want you to do
this and enter this code. It's because they are trying
to get around MFA on their end and they need
you to give them that code so that they can

(01:07:37):
take over your account. And one of the things they
talk about in there is the use of pass keys
to pass keys instead of passwords. Not every site supports this.
Google does, Microsoft does, a lot of the big players do.
Now uses public key cryptography, so you have a public
ken and a private key. It gets associated with one
or more of your devices, and especially if you have

(01:07:58):
biometrics turned on that device, which is a separate topic. Now,
it's almost impossible for someone to take over your account
because they have to have that physical device, for example,
your phone. If you create a pass key for your
Microsoft account or your Google account and you assostate it
with your phone, the hackers physically have to possess the
phone in order to use those pass keys. So while

(01:08:19):
it can be somewhat irritating to get the pass keys
to work right. For any site that supports it, you're
definitely better off to use a pass key and a password,
because as far as I add of today, there's no
way I know how to get around that because it's
digitally connected to it one or more devices. They have
to have those devices. But if you don't use pass keys,

(01:08:42):
if you don't know how to use pass keys, if
you're on a site that does support pass keys, this
just goes to show you you've got to be extremely
skeptical on just because someone calls you or you'll get
emails that look legit. It's never been easier to spoof
that stuff, and people are having lots of money stolen
and their whole lives up ended. Because I didn't have

(01:09:04):
the right accounts for you, I could do almost anything.

Speaker 2 (01:09:07):
Yeah, yeah I did. I got a call. I'm rerelated
to the Google thing, but you know me, I mentioned
a gazillion time to say it again. I get a
phone call, don't recognize the number, I'm not answering it.
And I had a guy leave me a message on
Larry from I can't remember it was one of my banks.
Because I have a couple of accounts, and I don't

(01:09:28):
think it was Emery. I think it was the fifth third,
but saying, you know, you need to give me a
call back, there's been a problem with your account. And
I'm thinking to myself, yeah, right, And so what did
I do. I went to my fifth third account and
logged on directly from it, and of course there was
nothing suspicious, wrong, weird, or unusual going on to my
bank accounts. So of course I'd never called back, and

(01:09:48):
I deleted the message. But he sounded like a regular guy.
He sounded normal, and he sounded concerned, and I, uh,
just again, it was obviously a spoof to me from
the moment I just started hearing what he had this say.

Speaker 8 (01:10:00):
So, yeah, that's the way to do it to you know,
go log into your account on your own and uh,
you know, or call the bank using a number that
you know can verify life on the bank statement. And
I mean, these these people are good. My family gets
texts regularly. They're purport to be from our bank and

(01:10:20):
you know, oh, your account is freeze. Please kindly call, Like,
look at that language, clearly scam your account be freeze.

Speaker 2 (01:10:31):
Yeah, okay, sure, I know English language standards have deteriorated
dramatically here given public schools, but that's obviously a huge
red flag.

Speaker 8 (01:10:43):
Ahead, Yeah, go ahead, go ahead.

Speaker 2 (01:10:46):
No, I was just going to say, day, but we'll
bring you right back. I just have to ask, are
you under the weather today, my friend? You sound a
little bit under the weather.

Speaker 8 (01:10:53):
Yeah. I got a little little sniffles or something going on.

Speaker 2 (01:10:56):
All right, Well, we'll wish you the best of health
and hope you get past it and bring it back
one more time to talk about artificial intelligence. Will now
be supercharging cyber weapons, great leveraging AI to more nefarious purposes.
I presume Dave will tell us all about that after
I mentioned my friends at Cullen Electric Andrew Cullen is

(01:11:16):
outstanding team of electricians, really do wonderful work. You'd be
glad you hired him. You'll enjoy the well oiled machine
you'll see when they're working in your house, and they'll
treat your house with the utmost respect. They're very, very
customer focused, so they'll take great care of you. They
enjoy an A plus with the Better Business Bureau, and
of course they deserve that. Whatever work they do for you,

(01:11:37):
from the smallest project to the largest comes with a
ten year wiring warranty. So don't delay, don't delay putting
off the upgrade of your nobin tube wiring. It's been
around for a long, long long time. Timed upgrade. Same
thing with aluminum wiring. Surround sound. They do that, they
do canlights. I did that with my house, the whole
house generator they wired up. If it's electric, just think

(01:11:58):

If fIF youy five KRCD talk station. Adam cala is
going to be in cdio off top of our news,
become a citizen journalist, start a podcast right or op
at and uh thoughts on the railway money being railroaded
off to pet projects, which we all knew was going
to happen the meantime, I guess artificial intelligence is going
to be creating cyber weapons. I mean, we're going to
we go from AI voice cloning to now using the

(01:12:42):
power of artificial intelligence to figure out different ways to
rip us off day. What's up.

Speaker 8 (01:12:48):
Yeah, I mean we're already seeing this sort of thing
now by it as you just discussed, whether it's the
voice cloning, deep fake video, you know, the ability to
write text that is very authentical looking as opposed to
all the old school tells like we just talked about.
But what they're referring to in this particular case, and
you the latest buzzword around AI now because the height

(01:13:08):
to a large extent has worn off of all the
catch ept generative AI type tool was just agentics. If
you haven't heard this term, mark my words. In the
next few months, you're going to be bombarded with agentics,
which is the idea if you're going to have these
AI agents that can do stuff for you. So rather
than you have to sit down and type a prompt

(01:13:28):
into an AI tool to have it do something, you
would create one or more agents and they're just going
to do stuff on their own, on their behalf. Does
that make sense? Before I kind of continue.

Speaker 2 (01:13:39):
Sort of, I mean, can you do an illustration or
an example, a specific example of a task that would
be automatically done for us.

Speaker 8 (01:13:47):
So let's say that you were trying to write some
code or something. Right, you're working on an application, or
you needed let's say every once a week you've got
a spreadsheet from someone and you needed to process that
spreadsheet in other form or something. You know, if you
have a unknown process that a human being could do,
and you can define those rules, and you theoretically could

(01:14:08):
build an agent that would say, Okay, at two pm
one Thursday, look in my email for a spreadsheet from Sindelar,
who download that spreadsheet and process at using these rules
and put it in this database or something like that. Right,
you'd have to define what it is you wanted to do,
but then basically through AI, it would be able to

(01:14:30):
do it on your behalf help. So imagine then if
you took these kinds of tools and set them up
to nefarious purposes, like okay, I want you to go
out and scan the internet, because there's some of this
stuff already exists, right, most of the hacking to see
isn't someone's sitting in their mom's basement. It's already using automation.

(01:14:52):
You know, they're scanning, they're looking for vulnerabilities and systems
they find online. They're trying to take dark Web data
and access people's email accounts. But instead of saying, Okay,
I'm going to run an automated tool and I see
this system as this weakness come back to it later,
you could have an agent that would kick in at
that point and then attempts to exploit the known vulnerabilities.

(01:15:15):
So it wouldn't take a human being to then engage
that AI could potentially do it. And the scary thing
about it then, assuming that this does what they claim
it will do, stuff doesn't take a break, it doesn't
call it sick. It works twenty four to seven. You
could spin up hundreds of thousands of these things, and
basically you have a really powerful army of agents out

(01:15:38):
there doing bad things as opposed to needing people to
do those more advanced steps. Does that sort of make sense?

Speaker 2 (01:15:44):
Yeah, it does, and a part of me it's like
watching one of those was It Terminator movies where the
guy comes back from the future and tries to kill
someone and it's all based on that big computer network,
or even one to the South Park Trapper Keeper episode
it makes you kind of wonder well or tinkering with

(01:16:06):
viruses to make them more sup more on making us,
you know, catch a deadly disease by just messing around
with it. It makes you want to ask the question
why I'm with you, Brian.

Speaker 8 (01:16:17):
I'm with you now again. Similar to this stuff is
hype and hyperbole. I'm not too concerned that we're suddenly
going to be wiped out and consumed by this stuff.
But this is the kind of things that people are
working on and when you ask the why question, often
the answer as well, our adversaries are doing it, and
that's kind of like to be able to it reminds

(01:16:39):
me of a lot of Doctor Strange Left. Yeah, when
you do the conversation that mutually is your destruction, well
we have to have more missiles than them, and that
sort of thing. But yeah, agendics agents, that's the latest buzzword,
this idea that you're going to be able to use
agents to do things, and sadly, part of that would
be to supercharge the sort of cyber attacks because you

(01:17:02):
know they wouldn't. Again, they don't call them sick, they
don't take breaks. They were twenty four to seven to
sixty five, and it's it is a real concern. I
don't want to downplay it. I'm not sure it's quite
the existential threat some people might have you believe at
this point.

Speaker 2 (01:17:17):
Yet, But yeah, at this point. The operative word in
your sentence was at this point, I mean, this article
reflects the writing is on the wall. I mean, we're
I mean, in terms of technology, we're just a moment
in time away from this reality unfolding Anyhoway right, new stuff.

Speaker 8 (01:17:35):
Certainly, yeah, certainly getting closer. And it's one of the
reasons why we really as a society and as individuals,
we you have to get serious about this stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:17:43):
Well, thank you very much for eleven years of scaring
the crap out of all this, Dave had or interest

there to help you out. Dave. Until next Friday, have

of the hour, we're moving very quickly. Fifty five KRC

Speaker 2 (01:18:11):
This report is sponsorible. Seven oh six here at five
KR City Talk Station. Brian Thomas wishing everyone a very

(01:18:32):
very happy Friday, extra special day.

Speaker 8 (01:18:34):
Man.

Speaker 2 (01:18:34):
We had a second appearance at Jack Evident earlier this morning,
of course Tech Friday, and in studio the return of
Adam cale Or. It's always a pleasure having you in
the studio talk about matters related to the city of Cincinnati,
my friend.

Speaker 15 (01:18:44):
Yeah, Brian, and it's it's a different country right now
we've got isn't it.

Speaker 2 (01:18:48):
Yes, last time we talked, Yeah, and you know you
po you painted an interesting picture. We were talking off
air before the show, before the segments started about the
Doge revel relations and where our money is going and
all these crazy indefensible projects and about you know, tax
dollars and I you know, as I always mentioned, you know,

(01:19:09):
I'm working and my tax dollars are taken from my labor,
which means I had to work some fraction of an
hour or whatever for my share of money that's sent
overseas for you know, the Sesame Street episodes in Iraq
or whatever. But you you illustrated a great point and
go ahead.

Speaker 15 (01:19:27):
And the idea is is that people don't understand billions
of dollars right, they really can't wrap their heads around it.
But when you talk about the money they spent on
the Sesame Street thing in Iraq, you could say the
average taxpayer spends about twenty thousand dollars a year in taxes,
and just for that Iraq Sesame Street thing, that's a

(01:19:49):
thousand people's entire tax bill in a year. A thousand people.
That's one for one program in Iraq. Any Iraq. That's
not even America. And this is the whole thing what
Trump was saying, America first, America first, and that's what
we're getting back to. That's what you see Elon and
these folks getting back to. That's why they're going after USAID,

(01:20:11):
which doesn't mean aid, right, it doesn't even stay for aid.
But you know, we're finding out that essentially it's an
arm of the CIA in a way, and it's there
to push political agendas. Whoever's in power at the time,
probably it's there to push their political agenda. In these
other countries, create activists so that they can implement whatever

(01:20:36):
it is they want to implement, right, trans surgeries in Peru,
things like that. You create these activist people like they
did in the United States. And this is all coming
out now. This is why you get these activists, folks
that are a lot of times funded by people like
George Soros, who received a bunch of money from USAID.

Speaker 2 (01:20:55):
Right in.

Speaker 15 (01:20:55):
Some of that money that he got, I think around
twenty seven million, it was on Rogan the other day,
twenty seven million dollars or twenty seven I think it
was twenty seven million dollars went to help elect these
woke district attorneys and prosecutors. And then you wonder why
good people like Melissa Powers here in Hamilton County can't
get elected. You got money that we're funding.

Speaker 2 (01:21:16):
We're funding it. Our interests are undermined by the taxes
they take from them.

Speaker 15 (01:21:21):
I'm saying, you're voting for who you want to vote for,
right who you seem exactly. But it doesn't matter because
the taxes you spend end up going to Sesame Street
and then to some woke district attorney or some woke
prosecutor who's going to let people out of prison and
into our streets. And here we go trying to round

(01:21:42):
these people up now and they're crying about it. Yeah,
it's just you can't win with these folks.

Speaker 2 (01:21:47):
Well, and the other interesting component about this, as I mentioned,
it's they're forced now to defend what I call the indefensible.
I mean it isn't a Republican slash Democrats, last independent thing.
Everyone can collectively be offended by American taxpayer dollars when

(01:22:08):
you learn about the types of programs that we are
spending money on, knowing full well that we spend an
extra two trillion dollars annually beyond what they take in
in taxes. It's and the left is screaming their bloody
heads off. But the marketing component of this, and I'm
very impressed with the efforts of DOGE to bring forth
all of these outrageous things because they're indefensible. Oh yeah,

(01:22:34):
make the American people up to it. But then pivoting
over to the deportation component, I understand people's arguments when
they say, oh, this woman's been living here for fifteen years,
she's gainfully employed, she contributes to the community, but she's illegal.
That's not who they're going after. They start off with
the most evil of evil, and everybody wants murderers, child rapists,

(01:22:56):
pedophiles out of their neighborhoods. Democrats, Republicans, communists, don't want
to pedophile living next to their house. So you can't
run around and defend or and scream about the deportations
which are focused on the worst of the worst, the
criminal types.

Speaker 15 (01:23:12):
That's right, that's right.

Speaker 2 (01:23:13):
It legitimizes this deportation effort because you are you really
gonna stand there and say we shouldn't be deporting these people.

Speaker 15 (01:23:19):
Look, and it's it's it is what it is, right.
These people came into the country illegally. They come over here,
which is one reason why he's Trump's trying to get
rid of the whole birthright citizenship thing. But they come
over here and they take advantage of the situation, and
then they hope that people are going to be sympathetic
to their cries. Right, but you came over here illegally.
These are the repercussions of your actions, right, And you

(01:23:43):
can't just feel sorry for some people because it's going
to keep happening. You have to put your foot down somewhere.
And Tom Homan, who's in charge of this whole thing, now,
he was on ABC last night, I think it was
last night, but he was trying to explain this to
the ABC hosts, who obviously are biased I mean, you've
seen what's happened to you. But he's trying to explain
to them, like, look, you can't just make exceptions.

Speaker 1 (01:24:06):
You have to go in and you have to be tough.

Speaker 15 (01:24:09):
You can't be soft hearted and sympathetic to a few
people because then you open the door to other people
doing the exact same thing, thinking that they can get
away with it. So if you're gonna put your foot down,
you have to put your foot down. And the crazy
thing it's like, when you think about it, the Republicans
are acting like adults right now, and the Democrats are
acting like children. I mean, you raise kids, right, I

(01:24:29):
mean you've got say your kid feels sorry for some
raccoon outside brings it in the house, right, You're like, hey,
look you can't have the raccoon. Oh but it's so cute.
Then the kid gets bit, gets rabies. Then you have
to pay for it to go to lo.

Speaker 4 (01:24:43):
That's Democrats, that's who it is.

Speaker 15 (01:24:46):
They get bit and it's your fault somehow, and then
you pay for it. It's just it's wild to me
that we live in a world like this where you know,
people in Ukraine's happening in other countries what's happening in
Peru with the trans community. Things like that supersede our

(01:25:06):
own population of people. Right, how did we ever get
to this point?

Speaker 2 (01:25:11):
Oh, the Marxists are running the shop basically, That's exactly it.
And you know, I'll go back to this whole idea
that that I think that behind the scenes, and I
use climate change is the greatest illustration of this. Every
single thing we end up doing is because we the
United States, are terrible in that we pollute more than anybody,

(01:25:31):
or we consume more than anybody. We are an overly
consumptive society. Our wealth has allowed that to happen. Our
wealth is predicated and built on capitalism and exceptionalism and meritocracy.
They're trying to take away meritocracy and fill us and
fill the country with a bunch of mediocrity. So we
end up not doing as well, intentionally knocking us off

(01:25:55):
this lofty perch that we have held for so long
because of how our gun works and because of the
freedoms and liberties we have. No other country has them,
which is why they aren't nearly as productive as the
United States.

Speaker 15 (01:26:07):
Yeah, and they're resentful, These are resentful people that we're
dealing with. They're resentful, they see dollar signs when they
can cry and complain and be in a leadership position,
they're the lead complainer. Like if you're the lead complainer
like an Al Sharpton or a Jesse Jackson or Colin
Kaepernick or you know any of these folks. Chuck Schumer

(01:26:30):
is a big complainer. I mean, look, how much money's
worth eighty million dollars or something?

Speaker 2 (01:26:33):
Right, Yeah, it's just gonna mention all the people you're
mentioning that screams so much about you know, the evils
and fair share of this and fair share of that.
They're all living quite large, Yeah they're not. How many
houses does Barack Obama have now?

Speaker 15 (01:26:45):
Well, exactly, Bernie Sanders and he's got summer homes. A
Casio Cortes isn't washing dishes anymore, right, I mean there
is money in grifting. There's money in just grifting off
the US tax dollar. You see that with usaid that
with what's going on. I mean, if you've got some
woke agenda, whether you believe it or not, there's a

(01:27:05):
government contract out there for you, oh without question, and
you can go down to Peru and do all the
trans surgeries. You want promote all the transurgers and tell
everybody else they're bad people for not letting you do it.
I mean they're going into some of the public schools.
I think it was actually in Peru they were going
into the public schools and teaching you know, the LGBTQ
agenda things like that, which you know, great community, let
them do their thing whatever. But now you're going into

(01:27:27):
another country and you're holding back money for their school
system that the United States taxpayer gives them unless they
teach this stuff. It's it's it's bribery.

Speaker 2 (01:27:40):
Well, just like taking federal money anywhere here in the
United States comes with massive strings attached. They have to
deal with the same reality in Peru. You know, they
don't want to teach LGBTQ agenda in your peruviing and schools,
then don't take our money.

Speaker 1 (01:27:56):
That's right, that's right.

Speaker 5 (01:27:57):
And some of them don't.

Speaker 15 (01:27:58):
Some of them say, look, I don't want it if
these strings come attached, if I've got you know, financial
blackmail is essentially what they're what they're doing to these people.
It's like, I don't want it, and you know, they
they try to justify it and say you know, Reagan
said something about, you know, it's not just what we
do here, it's it's some of the things we do
overseas and stuff like that. And it's like, look, it's

(01:28:21):
it's it's just Frankenstein. It's turned into this, this monster,
and nobody's looked at it because they see us a
ai D and they think us aid, oh, well, we're
doing aid. Of course, yeah, let's some of my tax
dollars go to this thing. But they've never looked into
it until now. And now that we're looking into it,
we realize this is all going to fund the Democrat agenda. Yes,

(01:28:45):
and you know what if it funded the Republican agenda,
wouldn't be for that either. I mean, you mean you're
a libertarian kind of you know thing going on, but
you can't you can't just use our money for political
stuff because you're using people that don't believe in what
you're doing money. And it's it's just crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:29:02):
What this is?

Speaker 15 (01:29:03):
What's become of this?

Speaker 2 (01:29:05):
Well, Adam Keleach, I mean, stud from now we're going
to be talking about maybe you two could be a

we will dive into the railway money bait and switch,
which we could all see coming a mile and a

one more with Adam Kaylor at first though, Foreign Exchange.
I love those folks at Foreign Exchange because I love

(01:29:27):
quality service. I love the family environment they have going
on there, and you get that and I like to
save money, and you definitely get that at Foreign Exchange
as well. Imported cars from traditional imported manufacturers, whether it's
Asia or Europe or Teslas. Like to emphasize they do
service Teslas now as well at Foreign Exchange, but you
get great service. You leave with a full warranty on

(01:29:48):
parts and service. I don't care what kind of maker
model you've got. If it's traditionally imported, from the exotic
to the run of the mill, you're in great hands
at Foreign Exchange and you will save money. I've saved
serious money. I've been going there for for as long
as I can remember, because I like the service and
I like not paying as much as just compared to
the dealer. That's what we're talking about. Westchester locations the

Speaker 1 (01:31:29):
Chuck ingramon fifty five krs the talk station.

Speaker 2 (01:31:34):
Seven twenty one to think about KRCD talk Station Happy Friday.
Adam Killern Studio had lots of issues to talk about.
So moving away from the broader globalism issues and the
leftist agenda that you and I are paying for with
our taxpayer dollars, let's turn local and talk about what
the railroad money is going to actually go for. Adam,
you and I talked about this before they sold the railroad.

(01:31:55):
Money is fungible. If you have a general fund that
is supposed to take care of roads and infrastructure, and
then you sell the railroad and put it in a
separate fund that is designed to pay for exclusively already
existing projects, you just free up money from the General
Fund so that the railroadmnute goes to quote unquote roads
or whatever, and then the general fund money's freed up

(01:32:16):
to start new stuff and things. And we saw that
the other day from the Vice mayor who wants to
talk about the Rising fifteen neighborhoods and using railroad proceeds
for this so called rising fifteen described as neglected neighborhoods.
And I guess I can just observe Democrats have been running.
And I misspoke the other day. Ken Blackwell was a

(01:32:36):
charter right when he was mayor, I thought he was
a Republican. So I withdraw that statement because someone reported
that we haven't had a Republican running the city since
nineteen seventy one. Well, that is in fact true, so
beyond Ken Blackwell and his more conservative minded attitude, at
least now, Democrats have been in control since basically seventy
one or roughly thereabouts, maybe you can even say nineteen

(01:32:56):
eighty when Ken Blackwell left office. Why do we have
all these neglected neighborhoods. I mean, you know, we got
a streetcar, we've got over the line that got redeveloped,
but nobody else gets any love. And now that we've
got railroad money, they're going to start focusing on these
neglected communities.

Speaker 15 (01:33:10):
Well, Brian, you know, I know you take those lefts
from Queen City Avenue on the subject if you're in
that right lane and you know, closest to the curb
there when you are in trouble man, and then they
patch them, and all they do is create speed bumps. Yeah,
when they patch them. I mean there's thousands of speed
bumps because of all the holes that were in that road.
And they just paved that not that long ago, maybe

(01:33:32):
seven eight years ago, and now it's a disaster. It's
it's like a war happened right there.

Speaker 2 (01:33:36):
It really is.

Speaker 15 (01:33:37):
And you know, it always brings me back to wait
a minute, we sold this railroad when and we got
one point six billion dollars for it, and it's apparently
making this money. But you know they didn't deploy all
that money. It took them a long time to actually
deploy that into investments. It just kind of sat there
and they did it in chunks and pieces. And I
guess that's a strategy that UBS uses, which UBS is fine,

(01:34:00):
you know, investment firm, but you know that money hasn't
been been, you know, enjoying the gains that we've seen
in the stock market that it could have. Right, So
I keep going back to those those TV commercials they
spent six million dollars on to convince the people in
Cincinnati to vote for that rail deal, where I have
tabs sitting in the car right where they use the

(01:34:20):
railroad money to promote him in the commercials, which you
know they both had the same treasurer for their campaigns.
That todd zens are found out for us. Yeah, but
but I keep reminding myself of all the potholes he
was in, you know, bouncing around a car. But they
haven't gone away.

Speaker 2 (01:34:36):
They're still there.

Speaker 15 (01:34:36):
They're still there, right, So these promises, See, this is
the thing, guys. You have to understand that these people
they get elected by poverty pimpin right. They they give
people hope, but they never deliver. Because if they ever delivered,
then people would vote differently, right, they'd be in a
better situation in their life. It all goes back to

(01:34:57):
the schools, Brian, It all goes back to the schools,
and this the years that they have failed us. Look
at the cities that have been completely run by Democrats
for decades, Baltimore, Memphis, Cincinnati, Chicago. There's a school in
Chicago where they pay over sixty five thousand dollars a
student going sixty five thousand dollars a student. None of

(01:35:20):
the kids can read at grade level. None of the
kids can read a grade level. There is a list
of all the schools. You guys can look it up.
There's a list of all the Chicago schools and how
much money they pay for students. Sixty five twenty five
is student thirty. That's private school money. But they can't
go anywhere, right, because they don't believe in school choice.
They want you to go to their little schools. They
want they're in doctrination camps. They want you to think

(01:35:42):
like them. They want you to be dependent on these politicians.
And then you have people like Kearnie who's like they
use the word underserved. Anytime they use the word underserved,
you already know what's gonna happen. Right, They're gonna steal
from you, steal from good money and give to bad money. Right,
are always doing that.

Speaker 2 (01:36:01):
Non governmental organization. This promises that they have the solution
to whatever problem. They get paid pretty handsome salaries at
the NGOs they work for. Even though they're five oh
one c three companies, they still make fat bank and
nothing ever gets accomplished, at least the appearance that nothing
seems to get accomplished. I know the school grade scores
have not gone uppe, and you know, I think there
is really a truly nefarious element behind that. I think

(01:36:24):
they're intentionally not teaching our kids to be critical thinkers.
They're intentionally dumbing down the populace because then the dumbed
down populace has to say, oh my god, I can't
take care of myself. I need the government to take
care of me. They need a vicious cycle. It's terrible.
It's terrible what they do to people. Let's pause from

(01:36:44):
what we'll bring back. Adam Keyler got lots to talk about,
including bitcoin and Bengals. First, though, tom is a big
day ten am to four pm. Get out to twenty
two three on Route forty two between Mason and eleven
and my favorite gun store. The best people in the
world own at Wendy and Jeff. Please tell them, Ryan said,
eye when you stop in, and one of the reason
you want to stop in between ten and four tomorrow,

(01:37:04):
it's a suppressor Day. Shaw Armament is going to be
there with some amazing suppressors, suppressors that are serviceable, modular
and caliber changeable. Serviceable is an important thing when it
comes to suppressors. You may know about suppressors, so you
know that it's an important element, But if you don't
know anything about it and you've always been curious about
maybe owning one, get out and talk to the folks

(01:37:25):
at Shaw Armament. They're going to be there demonstrating them
and you'll have an opportunity. They have them from twenty
two caliber all the way up. Some suppressor caliber changes
and shoot anything from nine millimeters all the way up
to fifty cow, which I find really hard to believe,
but there they are tomorrow, and so we'll also have
a full auto MP five on hand the customers can

(01:37:45):
test out on the range. So it's going to be
a great day. At twenty two to three, they have
a gun shop. It's amazing, filled with all kinds of
different firearms. Of course they have AMMO, They have a
gunsmith and a great indoor range. So think about that
all the time, but get out to between ten and
four to check out the suppressors. Twenty two to three
dot com. It's the number twenty two, followed by the
word three spelled out twenty two to three dot com.

Speaker 2 (01:38:58):
Fifty five KRCD talks Adam Kaylor and studio. We'll call
him an activist, and he'd like to encourage you to
also get involved, become a citizen journalist. And let's talk
about the Cincinnati Exchange and how folks can get involved
at them.

Speaker 15 (01:39:12):
Yeah, we haven't really launched it yet, but the whole
idea is to create a more objective news source in Cincinnati.
You know, we've got problems getting Republicans and even Libertarians
and Charter rights elected nowadays. Everybody just votes straight left.
And we talked about it earlier. It's because of the
poverty pimp and it's because of some of the tactics
that Democrats use.

Speaker 8 (01:39:31):
Right.

Speaker 15 (01:39:32):
They always look like the charitable ones, right, they always
look like the good ones.

Speaker 2 (01:39:36):
Yeah, but there's always strings.

Speaker 15 (01:39:38):
Attached, and usually those strings come with getting them elected, right,
and helping them to get elected. But when you get
into a position where you're so poor and you're so desperate,
anyone who's willing to give you something, not not help
you step up, but give you money right now to
alleviate your pain, that's what they do.

Speaker 2 (01:39:56):
Yeah, it's the whole you know, teaching man official for
a lifetime as opposed to to give them man officially
for a day, that's right. But the other thing is,
I don't know that there's even a delivery on the
promises they promise to give or deliver. But they never
make good on that particular aspect of their campaign or

(01:40:16):
what their promises.

Speaker 15 (01:40:17):
But you know what they did. They paid off thirty
thousand people's medical debt between one thousand and two thousand
dollars a week before the election, and then sent out
letters to people to pat themselves on the back about it.

Speaker 8 (01:40:27):
You know that.

Speaker 15 (01:40:28):
Oh yeah, they paid off the medical debts of all
these Cincinnatians. I mean it was a poverty pimping tactic, right,
So they said, hey, look, guess who gave you one
thousand dollars to help pay off your medical debt. Medical
debt that was going to get written off anyway by
the hospitals. So AFTAB and all these other guys, they
partner with the hospitals to pay off this medical debt, right.
And I can't remember how many millions of dollars it
was of taxpayer money that they used to pay off

(01:40:49):
this medical debt. But I mean it helped them get elected.
I mean it's thirty thousand people who got letters in
the mail saying that their medical debt was going to
get paid off, like a.

Speaker 2 (01:40:57):
Week before the election. What does that sound illegal to me?

Speaker 15 (01:41:02):
It kind of it sounds you know what, they'll get
through it, somehow, they'll figure it out. They come up
with reasons and ways.

Speaker 2 (01:41:07):
But in that it was in the inquire Okay, But
I mean, I guess that's the type of thing that
you would encourage folks to be more engaging and activists about.
You know, talk about it online, write about it online,
spread the word, talk to your friends about it. I
guess you know, every little bit counts, right, that's right,
just to become engaged and not be afraid of raising

(01:41:28):
these these issues and getting into an exchange with folks
about whether or not it's it's a good thing. Talk
about it logically and reasonably.

Speaker 15 (01:41:36):
Yeah, And I went credible people with guys like Todd Zenzer,
former US Inspector General. Credible guy.

Speaker 2 (01:41:44):
So he's smart as a whip, smart.

Speaker 15 (01:41:46):
Does his homework, knows what he's talking about. You know,
we've got twenty Republican clubs around town. You've got a
president of the club who's usually an activist type or
pays attention I don't want to call him activist the
way you.

Speaker 1 (01:42:00):
Know, like west Side Jim Kiefer, Jim Kiefer, amazing guy.

Speaker 2 (01:42:03):
Regular guy, great guy. He knows everybody in politics. He
gets people together. He's ahead of the West Side Republican
Club or whatever the moniker is they go under. But
you know, one guy. But he has a tremendous amount
of influences because he's out there and engaged, and.

Speaker 15 (01:42:17):
He's he's signed up to actually be an author on
our on our paper. Guys like Andrew Pappas out on
the east Side. He needs some east Side representatives, right.

Speaker 2 (01:42:26):
He's outspoken online. I mean Andrew Pappas ULLs no punches
at all.

Speaker 15 (01:42:33):
No punches. No, Actually, people are threatening him. I mean
I just saw his Facebook. Did you see that. People
are out here just you know, Internet gangsters or whatever.
Everybody's a thug on the internet, right. And but the
thing is is you got to collect these people, right,
We've got to get these folks who actually pay attention,
because most people don't. Brian, I mean, you're you're on
here every day, you pay attention, You watch the news,
you listen to the news, so you have some material

(01:42:53):
to talk about most people just go about their day.
They got other things to worry about, right. I understand
that especially these underserved served people, Right, they're worried about
how they're gonna put put food on the table, if
their kid's gonna get shot out in the street, or
are they gonna come home today because they got into
a fight at school. Like those are the things that
people have to worry about every single day in the
hood that you know, we're not out there is Republicans, Libertarians,

(01:43:17):
you know, people that are center right. We're not out
there every single day in front of these folks saying, hey,
look what the Republican Party is doing, and they don't
ever get our message because it's blocked.

Speaker 2 (01:43:28):
Right.

Speaker 15 (01:43:28):
They're in these indoctrination camps there. They're in a bubble, right,
a lot of them, which is why they keep voting
the way they keep voting, because they don't see us really,
so we got to get out there.

Speaker 2 (01:43:38):
I criticize a lot of the Republican candidates for I
think maybe the fear of going into one of these
challenged communities because they know it's predominantly Democrats, is because
they're in that loop cycle believing that they always have
to vote Democrats, that's right, and they're just like, well,
it's it's a waste of my time to go there.
I mean, the props to Melissa Powers. I mean she
was everywhere, everywhere, everywhere.

Speaker 15 (01:43:59):
And you know what, Jonathan Pearson was out in Avondale.
He was knocking ondoors in Avondale. Yeah, you know, white
guy in his you know, fifty sixties, just out knocking
on doors in Avondale talking about what he wanted to
do as county commissioner. He was out there, right, But
then there's some people and you know, you know, the
odds are against you when you run, right, all of us,
None of us run because we think, you know, there's

(01:44:19):
a really good chance we're going to win. I mean,
it's a seventy percent Democrat district the city of since
it anty.

Speaker 2 (01:44:24):
That a Sysyphian challenge.

Speaker 3 (01:44:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 15 (01:44:26):
Yeah, but if you don't put your name out there,
if we don't have someone on that ballot, the Republicans
start to feel underserved, right, we start to feel underserved
and we leave and then leave they go to Kentucky.

Speaker 2 (01:44:38):
Mate, my wife, when when the election results came in,
that the only election results we were certain of when
I went to bed or I guess she went to
bed around the same time. In November, the county election
results were all in and it was all pretty much blue.
Melissa Powers had lost and she's like, we need to
leave Hamilton County.

the air, new is Congressman David Taylor. Praise Congressman Brad Winster.
But David's going to join the program talk about what
committees he was appointed to and what his legislative proposals
are in the meantime. Adam Taylor on a bit of
a rant this morning, which is the idea behind Cincinnati
Exchange Another opportunity for conservative minded people, people with solutions

(01:47:13):
to problems, to put forth their ideas and offer their opinions. Uh,
and just one more vehicle to get the message out,
which message quite often is suppressed. We all have dealt
with that kind of idea before. When will you be
launching this exchange? Is it going to be online like
Cincinnati Exchange dot com? What's how's that going to work?

Speaker 15 (01:47:31):
Well, we are working on a new website for the
for the Hamilt County GOP, so that should come out soon,
Oh good, And we're going to have a blog on that.
And I've talked to Russ Mock about this and being
more active on the blog, getting information out, reacting to
things like what DOJE is doing, Like what is the
official Hamilton County Republican response to what's happening federally? And

(01:47:53):
then locally are we responding to this currenty situation with
the railroad? If why not? Like we need tools to
actually put our ideas out there, and that's one of
the things that that's gonna do. And then on top
of that, now we've got this Cincinnat's Change site, which
isn't part of the Hamilt kind of JOP at all,
none of that. It's something that I'm doing that I

(01:48:14):
want to try to get the people that are in
these clubs activated, get them on our platforms, start writing
about some of these things on a daily basis. But
then individually those people can go out work with our
favorite producer maybe and get your Joe Strecker and get
their get their podcasts off the ground. And I've got
a podcast studio people could come into my studio. They

(01:48:34):
can use my podcast equipment and they could get their
own little podcast going. Or we could we could start
a conservative podcast in Cincinnati and get it out there.
I mean this I would consider a central right kind
of radio show. You know, you're gonna have some people
on they're a little further right. Maybe you're gonna have
some people on that are left. Like I don't want
to I don't want it to just be one viewpoint,

(01:48:55):
So I want it to be objective.

Speaker 2 (01:48:57):
Yeah, and you know I have critics sense, like you're
some to call every once in a while and we'll
exchange ideas. They'll have different opinions, and you know, we'll
just get it out there and I leave my listening
onience to decide who's right or which side makes the
better argument. That's where you get a better idea coming from.

(01:49:17):
If you're in an echo chamber, you know somebody's going
to say something. You're right. Yeah, No, you're right, you're right.
I mean, you may have missed quite a few of
the points that you're supposed to be dealing with here
because you're just patting yourself on the back all the time. Right,
It's one of the problems the Democrat party has they
get in an echo chamber and they don't realize, for example,
like with regard to the criminal illegal immigrant situation, or

(01:49:39):
even more fundamentally, this weird thing that the left is supporting,
which is letting men play against women in women's sports.
No one likes it. Every single poll Republican, Democrat, Independent
overwhelmingly reject that only a small slice of humanity thinks
it's appropriate for some oversight a man to be boxing

(01:50:01):
a woman.

Speaker 12 (01:50:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 15 (01:50:03):
Well, when you've branded yourself as a good person, right,
I'm a good person. I'm a nice person. I'm a
kind They love to use the word kind, I'm a
kind person. They actually talk to people like their children,
like they talk to you like their children. They talk
to African American men like their children, grown men. They
talk to them like they're They treat them like their children,
like they they're incapable of doing anything without them.

Speaker 2 (01:50:26):
It's it's crazy, Like I've always said that, how insulting
can someone possibly be when you make an argument that
requiring an ID is somehow racist?

Speaker 15 (01:50:36):
Yeah, they can't get IDs.

Speaker 2 (01:50:37):
Yeah, you're in I'm sorry, mister black man, you're not
capable of getting an ID.

Speaker 1 (01:50:43):
You can take at a.

Speaker 15 (01:50:43):
Job without my help, without me passing this law or
whatever it is for DEI and ESG and all this
other stuff.

Speaker 5 (01:50:50):
Like guys, fix the schools.

Speaker 15 (01:50:53):
Just fix the inner city schools for God's sake, Like
quit growing the administrative class. You're given all this money
to these people who go to universities for the same thing.

Speaker 11 (01:51:04):
You have.

Speaker 15 (01:51:04):
An overproduction of elites is what it is in the system.
Your tax dollars absorb these people into the government in
some position, into a teaching position, into the public schools,
into an organization like USAID that is where these people go,
or college for tenured college, ten college, tenured high school people,

(01:51:24):
Like what is going on? Like you got these and
you know what, it's not even the teacher's fault that
these situations happen. But the whole idea is is like
you've got to get our ideas out there somehow. We
need more channels to put our ideas out there and
say here's what we have to say.

Speaker 2 (01:51:40):
What's your rebuttal? Right?

Speaker 15 (01:51:42):
And when people hear that rebuttal, if it doesn't, if
it doesn't hold up to what we're saying, then we've
got the right ideas, which I think we've got the
right ideas. You think we've got the right ideas, but
we don't have any channels to get our ideas out there.
So the Cincinnati Exchange dot Com we are going to
get that live very soon. We're gonna put some more
content on there. And that's going to be something that

(01:52:04):
I just do, right, I just put it out there,
and it's you know, I own a digital ad agency,
so it's it's easy for me to spin up a.

would love to write for a thing like this, And guys,
if you're interested, you've got the credentials. I think you know,
we need authors. We need people who can write who
have a little background and have some substance to them,

Right, yeah, gravitas. He's definitely got gravitas. The smart I mean,
the guys, I mean, he's probably one sixty IQ guy.

Speaker 2 (01:52:34):

we can dive into what this bitcoin in Bengals thing
was on the list of your topics. Move away and

bad guy the week we're looking for. Lisa, Happy Friday
to you. What's going on? Who's Antonio Curry?

Speaker 16 (01:54:37):

the work that you and the in St Police Department
do to help our community. We love you each and
every one of you. Keep up the great work. Back
over to Adam Taylor. Adam, interesting a concept you have
here with regard to the Bengals. Now, I know there's
these suggestions that maybe if Bengals don't get everything they

(01:55:40):
want by way of stadium upgrades that they're somehow going
to take their ball and go to another city or
move it or you know that kind of thing. But
there are options out there, one of which is, we
do have the right. It's like write a first refusal
kind of proposal that if they plan on moving or
selling the team, then somebody else the city, vergil could

(01:56:02):
come in and buy it from them and they have
to sell it.

Speaker 15 (01:56:05):
That's right.

Speaker 2 (01:56:05):
So how does this work because I don't know, I
don't know how who in the city is a billionaire,
but you got to have just crazy amounts of money.

Speaker 15 (01:56:13):
Crazy money. So if a billionaire in town, you know,
one of the wealthy people around here, which we guess
some billionaires floating around Cincinnati, but are they in the
market to buy a team, and are they in the
market to dedicate a huge chunk of their wealth to
purchase the Bengals, which you know, the value that team's
not going down anytime soon. But the problem is the
NFL has a rule, right, the art model rule, And

(01:56:34):
actually wasn't the NFL. It was the State of Ohio
that came up with this when the Browns left and
went to Baltimore. So you have no leverage right now
with Mike Brown and the team. If they wanted to leave,
they give you a ninety day notice, a quard of
the art model rule, and if a local buyer doesn't
raise their hand and say, hey, I want to purchase
the team, they can leave. But the thing is, the
NFL says you can only finance go to the bank

(01:56:55):
for a billion dollars. Well, the Bengals are worth between
four and a half five five and a half billion dollars.
There's three different groups that actually valuate the team, so
it did end up in the middle somewhere. But that
means somebody would have to come up with three and
a half, say four and a half billion dollars in cash,
maybe borrow against their stock or borrow against the value
of their company to purchase the Bengals. That's slimmed to

(01:57:15):
none chance exactly. So if nobody raises their hand, they're gone.
They could go to Mexico City, they'd go wherever, which
would be interesting under the Trump administration on American football
team going to Mexico City. But we need to do something,
we need leverage. So there's this thing, you know, obviously, crowdfunding.
I know a lot of people probably understand how crowdfunding works.
But on top of that, there's there's this method called tokenization,

(01:57:38):
which is essentially you create value. You create these tokens
that are traded on an exchange, and people can buy
and sell those freely. It makes you more liquid. But
Mike could either sell us forty nine percent of the team,
maintain control, and then be able to sell the forty
nine percent team back into the community. Now the community
would benefit because now you've got regular people in a crowdfund.

(01:58:00):
You don't have to be an accredited investor.

Speaker 2 (01:58:02):
With the vested interest in the successed.

Speaker 15 (01:58:04):
Interest Sexy team, But then you've got the community is
able to take advantage of the increase in value in
an asset that's only available to wealthy people right now,
So regular people around here that can invest in something
that only goes up.

Speaker 2 (01:58:16):
In value, right, that's so interesting concept.

Speaker 15 (01:58:20):
So you crowdfund the team, right, you go out, you
get pledges from people, maybe they have to put a
little money in escrow, right, but you got some people
that throw a million bucks at it. You got some
guys that to throw a hundred thousand at it, and
then you got some people to throw a thousand bucks
at it. But there's say four and a half, five
and a half million people in the Bengals fan base
just locally here. Maybe you open it up to the
county residents first, Okay, so the county gets to buy

(01:58:41):
firs since we own the stadium. Then you expand that
out to the metro area. And then you expand it
out to say the Trice State area, maybe include West
Virginia two. But you've got a lot of Bengal fans.
I mean, if you've got five and a half million
people in Bengaled them right, each person one thousand bucks.
There's your five and a half billion dollars right there.

Speaker 2 (01:58:59):
Well, it's a worthy thing to discuss, and we're not
quite there yet because we don't know what direction the
Bengals are going to go, but if they plan on
trying to flee, at least there's an opportunity. They're very creative,
and that's that's what we always get from you, Adam Keaylor,
is really creative ideas, and that's why you're such a
successful business man. Adam Keaylor. You know you're always welcome
here in the fifty five Cares mortsh. I appreciate you

(01:59:20):
making the trip and you know how much I like
having somebody in studio to talk to face to face,
and I've enjoyed the various topics we talked about.

Speaker 15 (01:59:26):
Thanks for having me on again. Guys at the Cincinnati
Exchange dot Com. It's could be opened up. You know,
people like Linda Matthews at the Frederick Douglas Foundation. Having
a black voice on there. I think that's going to
be important. You know, you got this Bowman guy running
for mayor right now too. I think he's going to
be important to get, you know, maybe get his perspective
on that paper. But guys, go check that out. We're
going to get that launch really shop you let.

Speaker 2 (01:59:45):
Us know as soon as you get at launch call
in the morning show. We'll set up another conversation. Adam Taylor,
take care and have a wonderful weekend. My friend, Congressman
David Taylor. He replaced brad Winstrip. Who is he? What's
he all about? What's the committee's he has he been
appointed to? What are his legislative proposals? He'll be up next.
Stick around.

Speaker 5 (02:00:08):
Talk station talk Station.

Speaker 2 (02:00:11):
Eight O six I fifty five gar see the talk station.
A very happy Friday. T You've been a great Show.
Thanks to Joe Checker for wanting up all the guests
this morning, including my next desk replacing Congressman brad Winstrop.
David Taylor, Representative Congressman Taylor. Welcome to the fifty five
KRCY Morning Show. It's a real pleasure to have you
on the program today. Oh, David, need to turn your microphone.

(02:00:35):
He's not here all on zoom. I'm sorry. Joe Strecker
and I are going back and forth. So good morning there. Yeah,
there you go, coming in loud and clear. Now, David,
it's great to have you on the morning show. Congratulation
on the victory and of course representing Ohio District too.
It's a sizeable district. Remind my listeners of your background,

(02:00:58):
because you have a very impressive background that obviously qualifies
you eminently for the job because most notably you run
your own small business, but also we're a former prosecutor.

Speaker 11 (02:01:09):
Yeah, Brian, that's right. I started out as as an
assistant prosecutor in Claremont County and did that for a
number of years before taking over the family business in
nineteen ninety nine, which is starting your Ready Mix located
in Brown County. Been in business in my family for
fifty years now and stayed involved with the Prosecutor's office

(02:01:29):
over the years since then and helped out where I could. Yeah,
I think it's important to have more people with the
business background in Washington, and I'm glad to say that
in this incoming Congress, a lot of the new members
don't have lifetime of political service. A lot of them
are in businesses of different kinds, of widely varied backgrounds,

(02:01:52):
which is you know, I think that's the goal.

Speaker 2 (02:01:54):
Well, and I think the important component is not just
that you know how to run business, it's how life
actually works, as opposed to how government works, which isn't
responsible for generating any revenue and having to be accountable
for the American dollar. You either earn your living and
have a successful operation, or yeah, lose the business. And
that's I mean. So I think that's an important sort

(02:02:17):
of reality component that some people just sort of miss
out on.

Speaker 8 (02:02:22):
Oh.

Speaker 11 (02:02:22):
Absolutely, the numbers have to work out in the private sector,
and all they have to do is print some more
money here unfortunately, and we're seeing how they've leaned on that.

Speaker 2 (02:02:33):
Well, let me just get your reaction to the just
flurry of activity coming out of the Trump administration. I've
been saying, Donald Trump hit the ground sprinting. We haven't
seen this much activity. And I would argue all positive
I did in my lifetime.

Speaker 11 (02:02:49):
I don't think I couldn't agree more that we all
expected him to come out of the gate strong. But
I think everybody's surprised by just how prepared the administration
was to go forward and how uh, how quickly it's happened.
And as you said, many many positive things happening here,

(02:03:10):
and it was sort of as a as a new congressman,
I feel like we need to we need to get
busy catching up with him. You know, a lot of
executive orders, doing a lot of good things, undoing a
lot of previous policies from the outgoing administration. But if
we don't go behind him and codify those things in
the law, then you know, the next time we have
a Democrat in the White House, those things will will

(02:03:34):
just be another flurry of executive orders. And I don't
think that's how the United States is supposed to be governed. Now.

Speaker 2 (02:03:40):
I'm not a big fan of the so called imperial presidency,
but we've been stuck in a quagmire for so long
Congress hasn't been able to get anything done. If Republicans
says yes, Democrats say no, it doesn't matter what the
idea is. It's just that there's this obstructionism that goes
on based upon party affiliation. But since you mentioned it,
and one of the obviously executive orders that bore some

(02:04:01):
great fruit on behalf of the American people, regardless of
the political strike, is cracking down on the border. I mean,
one of the reasons Donald Trump won and by a
large margin, including the popular vote, is because this border
security thing was just insane. Biden welcome people and in
fact encourage people from the four corners of the globe
to come to the United States, overwhelming even the most

(02:04:22):
blue Democratic cities to the point where the citizen there
was screaming at the top of their lungs to make
it stop. But border crossings down ninety percent. I read
that this morning. But it's something that the next administration,
if god forbid, we elect the Democrat president, could immediately undo.
So what is your codify into law solution? Do you

(02:04:42):
have one? Are you working on legislation to put something
into law?

Speaker 8 (02:04:49):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (02:04:50):
The one we've started with. I'm encouraging you know my
other fellow congressmanated to do the same. I've started with
trying to our first bill to codify the Residents Executive
Order to remove ten federal regulations for everyone that's added.
Very lucky to have Rick Scott heading that or leading
that in the Senate. No one disagrees that we've a

(02:05:14):
bloated federal regulatory structure. In fact, a member of my
staff spoke to Congressional Research Service last year just tried
to get an idea of under when he's working for
someone else out here, just to try to get an
idea of how many federal regulations there were, and we're
basically told that's not even knowable, just so many we

(02:05:36):
could not possibly give you account. So obviously it's not
a law that would need to be an effect forever,
but probably need to be an effect for a number
of years to sort of puld the unwieldy and you often,
you know, very negative federal regulations.

Speaker 2 (02:05:55):
Well, if anybody's seen the Code of Federal Regulations, I
mean it's volumes of books. I mean it's just it's
a sight to behold when you look at it, and
then when you start reading it. I mean, it's the
kind of thing that makes your eyes gloss over because
it's just so complex, and one regulation will reference another
one and sort of order to understand it, you got

(02:06:16):
to go to the other regulation. It's just mind boggling.

Speaker 11 (02:06:20):
Right where I'll tucking to one of my fellow freshman
class members and I said, it takes a long time
to walk past it, much less read it.

Speaker 2 (02:06:28):
Yeah, And you know that's when we hear about these
omnibus bills being passed. And I wish it would be
back to the regular order of business with twelve annual
Appropriations bill, which is part of the job description. But
you get an omnibus bill. It's twelve hundred and fifteen
hundred pages long, and it is it's you can't understand
it because it mentions changes to regulations which aren't fully

(02:06:50):
spelled out in the omnibus, which means you got to
go back to the Coda fegga regulations and have that
handy to understand what's sitting in front of you. But
ultimately it's only out there for like three days. So
even if you could read it cover to cover and
understand it, which you literally cannot.

Speaker 11 (02:07:06):
No one does no exactly right, And I want I
want to assure you that we're working hard to make
sure we do the appropriations bills and operate under a
budget this year. Obviously, the March fourteenth deadline is coming up,
but our goal is to be operating under a budget
as as was intended this fiscal year.

Speaker 2 (02:07:29):
Which committees are you on, if I may ask, Congressman.

Speaker 11 (02:07:32):
Absolutely was very lucky in that regard. The two committees
I thought were most helpful for the folks in my
district or Agriculture and Transportation and Infrastructure, and I was
fortunate enough to be chosen for both of those. We
targeted agriculture because you know, there are eleven thousand family
farms in the district and not only and they're struggling

(02:07:55):
under the lack of a farm bill that's been kicked
down the road two years running now, and I do
believe we're going to get that across the finish line
this year. I think we're in a good spot starting out.
But also that Agriculture Committee has some jurisdiction over the
rural connectivity issue, and that's a huge problem in the
second district. Large swaths of the district aren't not meaningfully

(02:08:18):
connected to the Internet, which means they're not meaningfully connected
to the modern economy.

Speaker 2 (02:08:23):
So that was sort of my.

Speaker 11 (02:08:27):
First priority in the district was that if you get
that domino to fall, I think you start tipping over
a lot more. Because it's an all Appalachian district. Now
they have every need in a very acute way that
you can imagine. Yes, but I think that gives them
accessibility to a lot of those issues.

Speaker 2 (02:08:43):
Well, I do I come from sort of related to
farm stock. I mean my grandparents, great grandparents, and my
great uncles were farmers in the Tennessee area. My wife
grew up on a dairy farm in rural Pennsylvania. And
I understand the hardships associated with being a dairy farmer,
most notably a small dairy farmer. That is a tough life.
And since you're involved with the with the agriculture area

(02:09:05):
and sector and on that committee to walk into dangerous
waters here. But I am no fan of burning up
corn in my gas tank, and I don't think there's
any need for it. It's all predicated on climate change
or something. And I don't know if I understand how
or why it is a good thing to burn up
food in cars, And yet we pay subsidies and encourage

(02:09:27):
farmers to do exactly that because of the ethanol mandates.
Where are you on that topic? And you feel free
to disagree with me or explain why I'm wrong.

Speaker 11 (02:09:35):
Now, Brian, I'm learning about that. I've heard from both
sides in a little bit of time i've been here.
I know they're talking about sustainable aviation fuels and trying
to see ways that it can be positively used. But
I've got a lot more to learn about that. But
I am in the process of trying to get my

(02:09:56):
arms around that issue. I know it's a hot button
topic between farmers, and you know people are against it,
so the farmers mostly are for it. Oh yeah, It's
something I'm digging into, but not something I've got a
position on yet.

Speaker 2 (02:10:09):
All right, Well, I appreciate that, and you're honesty in
that regard. But I think of the corollary to that
is the problem we had with corn syrup, and I
think RFK Junior, if he does end up getting his
position confirmed, is going to shine a whole lot of
light on that most notable problem in our diets. Let's pause.
We're going to continue with Congressman Dave Taylor taking over

(02:10:29):
for Congressman brad Winstrup, and he's hitting the ground running.
It's like everybody else in the Trump administration. We'll bring
him right back. Don't go away.

AY nineteen here fifty five KRCD talk station probably represented
District two here in Ohio Congressman David Taylor on the
phone day, finishing pivoting over to some of the legislation
you're sponsoring, and dealing with the border again, if I
maybe go back to that just for a moment, remain
in Mexico Act and finish the Wall Act. Those are
two things that obviously, if they were signed into law,

(02:11:53):
would have a level of permanence that executive orders do not, right, And.

Speaker 11 (02:11:59):
I think that's going to be the old this Congress
to sort of following the wake of these executive orders
and try to get them codified into law and so
that they're longer lasting. And the good part here is,
as you mentioned earlier, that we're seeing the positive effect
of these executive orders in short order. So you know,

(02:12:20):
that will make those bills easier to pass. So I think,
you know, as much as you and I don't love
the executive order, they are going to be helpful in
actually legislating in this case.

Speaker 2 (02:12:34):
I mean that's a positive well, and the other positive
is moving away to things that don't have a permanence.
But Elon Musk and I keep reading all these angry
leftist posts, he's a non elected official out of them.

and abuse in government so that folks like you, Congressman
Taylor can hopefully do something about it. He's been very

(02:12:56):
effective in that regard lately.

Speaker 11 (02:12:59):
I couldn't more you know, what we've seen from from
the Democrats since Dog especially was looking at us AIDS.
They seem to think that people are more worried about
how we found out the us AID funds leftist propaganda
international terror than they are that us AID funds the
leftist propaganda in international terror. I know, I think that

(02:13:22):
the public at large is a little more worried that
it's happening than how it finds out. And honestly, there's
nothing wrong with the president appointing someone to look at
what's going on within his bureaucracies. And this, you know,
the us AID was was enacted by executive order by
John F. Kennedy, So if the President wants to look
at it again, more than within his rights to do so.

Speaker 2 (02:13:43):
Well, and I'm quick to point out I don't recall
anyone electing doctor Fauci when he was running the ship
out there, and that terms of our medical care and
and covid is, among other things, and funding h gain
of function research at the Institute of Virology in Wuhan.

Speaker 11 (02:13:58):
Absolutely true. The idea that to be involved in the
processes of government you have to be elected, well, we'd
be down to under six hundred people out here. Maybe
that would be a good thing, but maybe.

Speaker 2 (02:14:13):
Youre on is something on that.

Speaker 8 (02:14:15):
Well.

Speaker 2 (02:14:15):
The other thing is I'm always been an advocate for
some measure of school choice. Obviously, I don't think anyone
can argue that our public schools seem to be failing
our children. And this is not intended to be an
indictment on teachers themselves. They've got a tough job, but
the scores are going down. The children are no longer
thinking along the lines of critical thinking. We're failing and

(02:14:36):
reading and mathematics. I see that you're behind getting rid
of the Department of Education. Do you think that will
have some sort of effect on allowing students and families
to make greater choices in their education.

Speaker 11 (02:14:49):
I think that's just one of many benefits that would
that would flow from the elimination of the of the
Department of Education. You know, the terrible policies that are
top down push from the federal level to schools in
our states are are uniformly ineffective to harmful. They sort
of arrange in that uh that near range. So not

(02:15:11):
only do the local state and local schools have more resources,
but they would be able to have, as you said,
more opportunities for school choice. I have it does a
great job with the voucher system, but it can be
a lot better, Like with more resources in the state.
My district which has fewer uh you know, school choice options,

(02:15:33):
would be able to have more school choice options. So yeah,
I know Congressman Matthew has proposed this before, and God
love him for it, and I've always been for it,
But this time around, it it looks like it's got
some traction from the White House as well. So now
now seems like the time.

Speaker 2 (02:15:52):
It does seem like the time and Ford part company.
I've just got to ask you, Congressman Taylor, about the
amendment of proposing the amendment of the Constitute the limit
the numbers of the terms of members of Congress. I
would think that you, probably even within the Republican Party,
might have some opposition to that, because well, that would
eliminate their their their their their jobs.

Speaker 11 (02:16:15):
Well, you know, there's what's right, there's what's right. I
think that you know, we need to address the situation
of term limits. I'm for term limits absolutely. Uh CO
sign the bill to that effect and maybe the sorry
the amendment. But you're right, it's hard to get people

(02:16:38):
to vote against their own job. But in the language
in the in the in the bill is such that
you sort of exempt the people that are already here,
so you get a little bit that self interest out
of it. And it's it's an unfortunate carve out, but
it's one that it's sort of necessary to give it
a chance to pass. To improve this. It's awa in

(02:17:00):
the long run. But yeah, I don't think you're supposed
to make a career out of this. I think the
founder's envisioned people having a life before and after politics,
and you'll go out and have a life and bring
some value life experience to Washington and then leave and
make room for someone else.

Speaker 2 (02:17:18):
And get back to running the Sardinia Ready mix exactly.
I hope they are okay without you for a while
day getting stuck in the swamp, and I'm sure you
got some great people there were running the show for you.

plans for the weekend. I love my Fridays. Every list

just go ahead and remind folks since I mentioned it
for the first time this morning. The next listener lunch
March fifth, which is the first Wednesday of the month,
which is when we traditionally have the listener lunches unless
it falls like on a holiday or something. I've always

(02:19:25):
mentioned the adjustments, but March fifth, we will be at
March First, which is the brewery on East Kemper across
from the Kids First Sports complex there. So March first,
March fifth. I had a couple of peop are very
confused about that. They was talking about it this morning.
So he said, where is the next listener lunch? I said,
March first. You get this really puzzled look on his face.

(02:19:48):
He said, well, the first Wednesday of the month is
March fifth. You asked me what the place was, I
said March first, anyway, And congratulations to Darren and the
entire crew at March First. They're celebrating their eighth anniversary.
So I'm looking forward to heading over there. Real close

a child hit by a car happened last night and
the child had to go to the hospital. Butler County

Madison Township where pedestrians struck around quarter after seven in

crime Stoppers five one three, three, five two thirty forty

(02:21:16):
three five two thirty forty Let's get over the phones.
I got Linda on the phone. Linda, thanks for calling
this morning in a very happy Friday to you.

Speaker 17 (02:21:24):
Good morning, Brian, how are you this morning?

Speaker 2 (02:21:26):
I am wonderful. I'm always good on a Friday. I
could be sick and I would still be happy and
in a good mood on a Friday.

Speaker 3 (02:21:34):
That's gould be too.

Speaker 17 (02:21:37):
I wanted to call in and talk to you about
what Adam Cohler was just talking about. I think what
Adam is bringing to the front of the Republican Party,
it's a wonderful ideal. It allows us to exchange ideals
and spread our brand out into the urban core. There
you are, say Central Committee woman of the ninth Senatorial District,

(02:21:59):
which is Sinnati. We've been working very hard in the
community for quite some time and changing hearts and minds
since look at our candidates and see what we're doing
here in the city of Cincinnati. Yes it's blue. Yes
we've lost, but we're coming back strong and hard. And
I thank President Donald Trump for all the things that

(02:22:20):
he's doing so quickly to change things around. And I
also think that because of what he's doing, and because
of the exposure that he's doing, is changing a lot
of hearts and minds in the African American community, not
just here in Cincinnati, but around the country. To see
all the waste that they've been doing, making all these

(02:22:41):
false promises that they couldn't keep. And I'm just so
proud of what he's doing.

Speaker 2 (02:22:47):
And I back in one Linda. It's such a pleasure
to hear you say that.

Speaker 6 (02:22:51):
I am.

Speaker 2 (02:22:51):
I want to thank you on behalf of everybody in
everybody for your involvement with Central Committee. I hear it
all the time. That's where the yeomans work gets done.
That's the first and front line to get good people
in office, to make to select the right candidates, to
make sure the right endorsements are made. Central Committee is key,
and I'm glad you're a part of it, Linda, And

(02:23:12):
I can hear the enthusiasm in your voice and the
positivity in your voice.

Speaker 17 (02:23:16):
Yes, Alex is doing a wonderful job. I'm so proud
to be under his leadership and his vision, his tenacity,
his ethic and working very hard for our party. And
I so I'm very honored to be in this seat
and on the State Central Committee. Also, Brian, we're doing
some more things out here in Cincinnati. Yes, we need

(02:23:38):
to engage more in the urban core. So I created
the Frederick Douglas Foundation of Ohio and in the Frederick
Douglas Foundation of Ohio. We have created different events and
outreach in the urban corps, not just here, but across
the state of Ohio. We have ambassadors throughout the state
of Ohio. We have a wonderful strong Boy and we're

(02:24:01):
bringing a big event here of February the twentieth at
the Woodlawn Recreation Center. The Frederick Douglas Foundation is along
with Black Wall Street and what we're trying to do
is engage in the urban cores and change hearts and
minds of things that you know, they've been indoctrinated into

(02:24:21):
and to see that what they've been thinking.

Speaker 5 (02:24:25):
Was just a force.

Speaker 17 (02:24:27):
And you know, with Trump exposing all this, I think
people are really waking up. So we put together this
event called the Black Family and where do we go
from here?

Speaker 8 (02:24:39):
And we're bringing in doctor.

Speaker 17 (02:24:41):
Umar Johnson, who is a world renown child psychologist and
talking about what things that are happening with our families,
the Black family and our communities. It's February the twentieth
at six o'clock at Woodlawn Recreation Center. But Brian, we
have a big problem. It's sold out into oh I was.

Speaker 2 (02:25:02):
Just gonna ask you, is there a website or something,
so we get a whole bunch of people to go
to that, Linda, that's so amazing.

Speaker 17 (02:25:08):
God, it's sold out.

Speaker 12 (02:25:10):
In two weeks.

Speaker 17 (02:25:11):
We have over three hundred and forty five people who
have tickets.

Speaker 8 (02:25:15):
So we have a problem.

Speaker 2 (02:25:17):
That's great.

Speaker 17 (02:25:19):
It just sewed out. So events like this helped us
get our message out and help people rethink and retool
on what are the things they're going to do to
make their families, make their children, and their community better.
We can't keep doing the same thing inspect different results.
So now we have to rethink and recharge on how

(02:25:42):
we're going to move forward in the future in twenty
twenty five and so we're gonna have this big discussion
and you know, I'm excited about it, and I just
want to call in and let you know that I
am working hard in the urban car in open core
and working across the state of Ohio with an ambassadors
that we have in Cleveland, Liverpool's, Montgomery County, Warren County,

(02:26:06):
Butler County, Hamilton County. So we have ambassadors all over
the great state of Ohio, and we're doing the work
in the urban core and we just got we just
really started so this year and next year, the years
of ahead of us, we're going to be in that
urban core, engaging, educating, and changing hearts and minds so

(02:26:27):
that they can see that what they've been doing all
along was not in their favor by voting for the
Democratic Party.

Speaker 2 (02:26:33):
Linda, your call has made my day. You have made
my day. I am so pleased to hear hear what
you have going on and how enthusiasm are and the
positivity you're bringing to the table, and you know, and
optimism too. You know you haven't written it off. You
know what you need to fight for, and you're going
to try to change the landscape for the better of

(02:26:55):
everyone in the community. You always have a place to
call in this morning show, Linda, to give us a
updates on what's going on. I can't thank you enough
for your hard work. Keep it up. And then you
got an event like that, you want to promote it,
you got a place to do it right here, and
I'm glad to see it sold out. How exciting is that, Linda.
Have a fantastic weekend. Get engaged, just like Linda. Turn

to the phones, I got two callers and James, you
hold on because Jeff's been on the phone longer. Patriot, Jeff, welcome,

(02:28:40):
My Friend's always good to hear from you.

Speaker 18 (02:28:43):
Hello, Brian is always shoot and Joe our.

Speaker 12 (02:28:45):
True patriots, buddy love hearing that.

Speaker 11 (02:28:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 18 (02:28:51):
Right, Before I get on to the individual journalism comment,
I wanted to reiterate that I think the reason that
Trump also identified with more people is because he didn't
try to be a politician.

Speaker 5 (02:29:07):
He never did.

Speaker 18 (02:29:08):
I mean, if we get more people in our government
that are not politicians and simple business people that it
doesn't matter what their communication skills are like or if
they talk on let's get the job done, which is
what he did better than any president, whether Republican or Democrat,

(02:29:31):
and I would say easily twenty years before him. I mean,
he actually got stuff accomplished, and he met with business people,
both black business groups, Latino business groups, white business groups.
I mean he had more people at the White House
that had to do with business than he ever did

(02:29:51):
you know, people that were going to back him, or
money people or whatever. It was all about, let's get
business people rock and and roll.

Speaker 2 (02:30:01):
Yeah, I mean, when you're in business, you need to
make a profit. There's accountability. You're responsible for your employees
and sometimes you're responsible for shareholders, to whom you owe
a fiduciary obligation to maximize profit and return on investment. Well,
business is a well oil machine, or business fails. That's
where And going back to one of the first points

(02:30:22):
I made this morning, Ford lost five point one billion
dollars on electric vehicles last year. You know why. That's
because they were forced to build them. That's not a
business decision that a prudent automobile manufacturer would make. It's
because of Edict's mandates and incentives from government to do
something otherwise wouldn't do because it's not in your best interest.

(02:30:43):
Your good man, Jeff, have a fantastic weekend, Mississippi. James,
welcome back to the morning show, my friend.

Speaker 3 (02:30:49):
All right, good morning, mister Brian.

Speaker 8 (02:30:52):
Hey.

Speaker 3 (02:30:52):
Two quick points, and one of them I had to
go back and listen at your tape from yesterday, and
I was speaking of about one world order, and it
seemed like you referred to it as the United States
being the leader in this one world or that's not
the angle I was coming from. United States would just

(02:31:12):
be a spokes, like a spoke on a wheel in
this new world order.

Speaker 2 (02:31:17):
Did I say we were going to lead it? I
think when I say, if I said something like that,
he's lead by example. That's the thing. You know, We're
the outlier in the world. We are the highest producer.
We obviously the biggest consumer, but we produce more money, goods,
and services and everything than all the other countries. And
so we can lead by example, but we don't have
to take over anything. We can just say, hey, look

(02:31:39):
at life in Venezuela and under their system of government,
and look at life in America where we have all
these freedoms, liberties, and the ability to go off on
our own and make money and profits and employ people.
So we are the demonstration to the rest of the
world of a better way to run a government. That's
kind of what my point I think.

Speaker 3 (02:32:00):
Okay, point number two. We talked about the schools being
a failure. If you go back and look at when
private prism became popular, and it was all about a
head in the bed, and we became up out of that,
the private prism, we came up with school the prism pipeline. Now,
I think it's been curved a live bit now. But

(02:32:23):
for twenty years they were not intentionally not educating these kids,
almost like targeting them so they could go to jail
and fill these prisons. And it went down so bad.
Now I think it's beginning to turn even here in Meridia, Mississippi,
they have started a program what they use social emotion

(02:32:47):
learning now. So I've just been invited to come to
the public school to teach a program that I've been
tweaking over the last five years. So I'm getting ready
to go up mentor in some of the.

Speaker 2 (02:33:00):
Public schools here, And can I ask you basically along
what lines are you mentoring? What information you're providing for
these young people that apparently they're not getting well.

Speaker 3 (02:33:10):
A title of it is called model citizen. Oh okay,
try to show a kid and I got step one
through five and they go from your first indoctor nation
as a child, you know, usually come from home, whatever
you believe in. So I opened that up and objective
is to get them to talking because most of the
kids do not trust adults. And I tell you that scowl.

(02:33:33):
The prison pipeline here was so strong that kids are
fred to go to school because a lot of men
up in the juvenile center for little minor incident because
they had zero tolerance. So when a teacher sent a
kid to the principal office, the principals do not mitigate anything.

(02:33:55):
They call the police. Police come out. We're putting handcuffs
on ten twelve third ye old kids, take them to
the juvenile center. Maybe because he had his back pants
were sagging, or he had on their own colored socks
outside the uniform, you know, so minus stuff they were.
So it was so progressive.

Speaker 2 (02:34:18):
I was gonna say, it sounds to me like your
program is providing the guidance that a good parent would provide.

Speaker 3 (02:34:26):
And some of the parents are so you know, they
not providing it.

Speaker 2 (02:34:30):
I understand that, but yeah, you're feeling a vital need
in and you know, providing young people with the guidance
and the skills to be good model citizens. And that
to me, if there was not a breakdown in the
family unit. If parents worry and that this is of
any you know, income level, any color, creed race. If
you're not taking your care of your kids, you're not

(02:34:50):
teaching them morals and ethics, and you're not teaching them
to be good citizens, then we're going to have a problem.
Not just in our schools, We're in a problem in society.
So yeah, James, I wish you all luck in the world,
and I hope the program is a wildly successful one.
And I want to thank you for engaging and getting
involved with the young people in your community. It's just

(02:35:10):
there were more people like you, James, we wouldn't have
as many problems. God bless you, sir. I always love
hearing from you. Man, have a wonderful weekend. Got to
take a break. I'll take Joe's call as soon as
I get back to hang on one second, Joe, if
you don't mind.

Speaker 5 (02:35:21):
Fifty five KRC the talk station.

Speaker 4 (02:35:25):
Best r us.

Speaker 2 (02:35:30):

It is a wonderful world.

Speaker 15 (02:35:38):
Geez agreed, redses too.

Speaker 17 (02:35:46):
Phone and.

Speaker 2 (02:35:55):
Man, I suppose the final word will come from my
caller online, Joe. Joe, thanks for calling this morning. A
happy Friday to you.

Speaker 11 (02:36:02):
Happy Friday.

Speaker 12 (02:36:03):
Can you me okay, Brian.

Speaker 2 (02:36:04):
Beg your pardon?

Speaker 12 (02:36:05):
Can I hear Can you hear me? Okay?

Speaker 1 (02:36:07):
Yeah, I can.

Speaker 12 (02:36:09):
I only get Josh Baker. Sorry, now I'll go ahead.
I'll make it quick. First, continue pressure for you and
your family.

Speaker 2 (02:36:16):
Thank you, sir, You're welcome.

Speaker 12 (02:36:18):
Yeah, you and a gentleman. James uh touched on a subject.

Speaker 19 (02:36:23):
Something I've always lost the battle in as a business
manager and an information technology person. I've always been big
on decentralization because when you do that cooking color approach,
you leave single points of failure and there's no innovation.
And I think that you can apply that lot of
global scale. And I want to hear your opinion on

(02:36:44):
my talks.

Speaker 2 (02:36:45):
I couldn't agree more. One size never fits all. That's
why I'm all in favor of sort of like, for example,
local control of education. On favorite local control of dollars.
You know, it's like every dollar that comes from the
federal government comes with massive strings attached, and that creates
that one size fits all approach, and it doesn't work
some places. I mean the struggles that people in Chicago

(02:37:08):
have versus the struggles that people in Cincinnati have or
even look at a place like Los Angeles to San
Francisco where it's impossible to even afford a house. Those
are different struggles. It's like, you know the minimum wage
that the left wants to push out there, fifteen dollars
minimum wage, twenty dollar minimum wage, Well, that will be
a lot of money if you live, perhaps in a
state like West Virginia. I don't mean to pick on

(02:37:29):
West Virginia, but contrast West Virginia's economics to a place
like New York City. I mean, you better damn will
make more than that prescribed minimum wage in New York City.
You're not gonna be able to afford to live anywhere.
So that one size doesn't fit because the economic realities
are just completely different regardless depending upon where you're standing
in our country. Yeah, innovation, local innovation, Try different solutions,

(02:37:54):
different options, and try to stay away from taking the
