Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:07):
Clive O five fifty five k r C The Talks
Days Friday Eve a vacation. Yes, indeed it's Friday E.

(00:32):
Brian Thomas right here. Glad to be good to see
Sean McMahon covering for the vacationing J Tracker, who is
probably still poolside. Hmmm. Do you think maybe he passed
out at the pool bar Sean, he still spent the
whole night there. I don't know, kind of widely expeculating
about what has been doing over the past several days.
I hope it's fun regardless, and thanks everybody who made
it to the Senator Ran Paul Congressman Thomas Massey event

(00:55):
last night in Barlington. Great time. I was able to
m see that and thanks to the Camps for inviting
me to facilitate. It was an awesome opportunity. A couple
of hundred so people showed up. It was a whirlwind
kind of day for them. They hit make seven stops
and support of Congressman Massey in his efforts to get
re elected next year. And as Congressman Massey pointed out,
there are several billionaires of the bee funding the anti

(01:17):
Thomas Massey ad campaign that many of my listeners, and
I've seen him. You probably have seen him. And as
he pointed out, isn't it interesting that that money in
that campaign, the anti Thomas Massey campaign trying to convince
by northern Kentucky voters. If you guys all have to
laugh at this, that he is not a conservative guy.
I mean, I got you. Folks in the Commonwealth keep

(01:41):
returning Senator Raanpaul and Congressman Thomas Massey time and time again,
inspite the challenges that they fay faced, because they are
sound constitutionally founded individuals. Mister no, he may be, but
he's always no unfat bloated government spending. He's never know
on this responsibility limited government and free markets. He's never

(02:01):
known about protecting your civil liberties, Congressman Massy. But these
three billionaires are finding this campaign, notably one of the three,
he pointed out last night in his comments in Jeffrey
Epstein's telephone book. Still the subject of controversy. Where in
the hell the Epstein documents? Anybody? Massy's discharge petition looks
like it's going to get through. He is waiting for

(02:23):
the new representative to be sworn in that person has
committed to signing the discharge petition along with the he
was waiting for I guess two or three additional votes.
There were some vacant seats. They've been filled now, and
all of the new seats in the House all have
commitments to join with the others who have already soundly
committed to the discharge petition, which will force Johnson to

(02:44):
bring the vote to the floor, which will allow us
to maybe get the damned documents released. And I you know,
of all the things that have gone on to the
Trump administration during the first nine months, here, is there
anything more disappointed than his reversal of his promise to
reduce release those documents. Who's he protecting? We have to
ask out loud. Oh, maybe it's the billionaire on the

(03:04):
That's funny. The anti Thomas Massey campaign could be well
more fundamentally, dog Massey suggested, probably, and more likely friends,
well connected friends. He reminded everybody that were a thousand victims.
There are those FBI what are those three or two

(03:25):
forms or something? Anyway, we learned about those with the
Hunter Biden investigation. But they have to prepare a specific
document when the victims come forward and reports are crime
to the FBI. Those are those exist, and there are
a ton of them. Apparently have we seen those yet?

Speaker 2 (03:41):
No?

Speaker 1 (03:42):
We see there in lies the challenge all these well
connected not developers. In this case, that would be the
City of Cincinnati working with the Parvole administration to get favors.
But in this particular case, the favor that's being given
is the protection from revelation to the Epstein documents. And
there could be a lot of folks in there, and

(04:04):
I have no sympathy for him, honestly. Listen, they have
vast quantities of money. They can go on social media.
We all have access to social media. We can protect
and defend ourselves state Nope, you know, yeah, I knew
the guy. I was on the plane, or I wasn't
on the plane, I was at Pedo Island, or I
wasn't on Peedo Island. Just to explain yourself, if there's
evidence you committed a crime, maybe, just maybe someone will

(04:25):
prosecute you for it, budd. If not, why are we
being kept in the dark on this? Anyway, interesting time
last night, a lot of fun, A lot of politicians
from Kentucky showed up, very very libertary minded folks and
It was truly a pleasure to be there, really happy
that my son was able to make it today as well.

(04:46):
So anyway, keep your popcorn out on the Epstein documents
five on three seven two three talks Sorr. I went
on that tangent, but it did a time last night
at that event seven o five with Congressman Warren Davidson,
one of the few good ones we've got along with
Congressman Massive Congress Warren Davidson join us for a couple

(05:09):
of segments again seven o five, follow by Daniel Flynn,
author of the Man who Invented Conservatism, The Unlikely Life
of Frank S. Meyer. Maybe we'll learn together about Frank Meyer.
He'll join the program. Daniel Flynn will at seven thirty.
I heard media aviation expert Jay Rattle Love every Thursday

(05:30):
at eight thirty five and three seven two three talk
found five fifty on at and t phones. More violence
revealed yesterday. Of course, we have a left wing who
has been purportedly an affiliate of Antifa. Yes, a new
left wing murderer, this time going after ICE agents that

(05:52):
authorities of the target of violence. The latest string of
attacks on ICE maybe ginned up by all the politicians
are calling ICE jack boot thugs, Nazis, et cetera, et cetera.
I mean, the list of of name calling and attacks
on ICE agents is just almost unlimited. Jutor on a
position in a neighboring building fired what they say is

(06:13):
indiscriminately at ICE officers. Sadly didn't hit any ICE officer,
at least sadly from his perspective, that's what he was
going for. Anti ICE guy. Three migrants in a van
pulling up to the office were hit, okay, one killed,
two others wounded, and then the cowardly murderer blows on,
bragging's out saving the taxpayers a trial. No sympathy for

(06:36):
these people whatsoever. Jee, I'm not a believer in the
death pan, and I've said that many times. Y'all know
that the rather guy Rotten hell in prison for a long, long,
long time. But you know again, if you want to
take your own life. Dallas Meat identified this murderer as
Joshua Johns, who is twenty nine. They are investigating the

(06:57):
attack as targeted violence. Cash Betel posted a photo of
the AMMO clip and that it is a clip in
this particular case, as opposed to a magazine difference. Yes,
revealed in the photograph with of course the anti ICE
message in large blue block letters. And someone was trying
to go back to like twenty seventeen or so, there
was a murderer the ranam Uk in some foreign country,

(07:20):
a right wing extremist murder. In that particular case, he
wrote something on one of the bullet casings. So the
left wing media is now suggesting that this is a
right wing phenomena and that the left wingers are all
now copying it by putting political messages on their bullets. Man,
what an act of desperation that is. President Trump called

(07:41):
the shooting despicable, said the ICE officers were under grave
threat violence. This violence is the result of the radical
left democrats constantly demonizing law enforcement, calling for ICE to
be demolished, and comparing ICE officers to Nazis. I'm calling
on all Democrats to stop this rhetoric against ICE and
America's law enforcement right now. Well, you know you've been

(08:03):
hearing ICE being called Nazis and secret police lot lately
among Democratic leaders, complaining masked agents swooping in your neighborhoods
to make arrest slave patrols. That's one one compared to
ICE's slave patrols. Minnesota Governor Tim Waaltz, you remember him, Tampon,
Tim called Ice a quote modern day Gestapo. Close quote huh,

(08:34):
modern day Gestapo, and repeatedly, over and over and over
and over and over again, the same types of words,
the same kind of rhetoric being spewed out by left
wingers to their left wing cohorts to sit in echo
chamber and think, oh my god, we're being overrun by Nazis,
failing to even look into what the Nazis diod for
what they were all about, and to recognize the vast
distinctions between the brown Shirts and the Nazi Party in

(08:55):
Germany and what they did, which is run around and
brutally beat, brutalized murder quite often Jews. I don't see
any parallel whatsoever to do what Ice is doing law
enforcement and rounding up some really horrifically dangerous people, doing

(09:18):
good work to make our communities safe. Anybody who want
a child moluster in their neighborhood, of course not now
if you had a mechanism to get rid of that
child moluster right away, because it was a United States
citizen child moluster. After they've been through due process. They'll
have to register as a child molester. You probably know
where they are. But you can't get rid of them,
can you. Oh well, here's a convenient way to get
a child moluster out of this country. Throw him out

(09:40):
because he's not supposed to be here in the first place.
He is here unlawfully. We have a legal mechanism to
remove him from the country. Look, there's a child moluster,
Pick him up, process him through the detention facility, and
send them back to whatever God forsaken hell Holy came from.
That's doing the work of the people. It's not Nazi activity.

(10:08):
Everybody's at least on the right side of political ledger
calling for some sort of senseability, some de escalation of
the rhetoric. Anyhow, I can only pray it happens. I
don't see it going away anytime soon. The left doesn't
have anything. This has been widely observed. I'm just sort

(10:30):
of summarizing about nine thousand op ed pieces pieces as
we move forward towards the next year's election in November,
of course, but as the Democrats struggle to get a
message out, the only thing that's percolating through is kind
of consistent with an ongoing theme. It was always Trump, Trump,

(10:52):
to Trump, Trump, Trump Trump, and that did not work.
Weighing on balance when you've got, you know, a job
ding up for the last five minutes of the election, basically
being replaced by Kamala Harris without any input from Democrats.
Nobody really trusted Harris anyways. Word salad, But all of
the anger toward Trump, what was behind that initial perception

(11:14):
of anger. Ask a Democrat if they feel angry about Trump,
they hate him, evil orange man. But when you get
to the issues, that's where Donald Trump was prevailing, at
least in terms of a percentage basis. On issues that
really mattered, he was ahead of the well the Democrats
generally in their rotating lists of presidential candidates, but a haad.
On immigration, he was on the right side of the

(11:36):
argument the American people were sick of this unregulated, unchecked
flow of humanity come into our country. Donald Trump was
winning on that. Also, on crime, Donald Trump was ahead
of the Democrats on crime. All of these realities remained
the same today, by the way, and there were other
areas where Donald Trump. So it's the hatred that they
had built in them directed toward Trump did not and

(12:00):
I'm tongue in cheek Trump, their preference for him on
the issues that we have to deal with. I'll take
evil Orange Man because he's better on these issues. Welcome
to a new Trump administration. Nothing's changed since then. In fact,
the polling has gotten better for Trump on the core issues.

(12:20):
The Democrats have no alternative to it. They're the defund
the police folks. They're the open borders folks. They're soft
on crime and all those issues. Donald Trump far ahead
of the Democrats. They don't have a message that can
act as a foil to his success on these issues.

(12:44):
And so what do they defaul to? Anger and violence
and vitriol? Hate, hate, hate, And I'm sorry all the
hate in the world poured on it does not override
success on what you and I have to deal with
on a day to day basis five eighteen Right now, Jay,
get your call just a second, got to take quick break,
be right back after these words.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
This is fifty five KARC and iHeartRadio station.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
It is five point twenty one. Very Happy Friday. If
if five KRC dot com and you can't listen to
a lot, strongly encourage you to head on over there
to get your iHeart media software or application. Listen to
all the content there. Judgement Paulitano Mariabeth Seruchi on the
America's true energy potential. That's from Americans for prosperity, helping
you help all of us by getting you involved and

(13:30):
get in touch with your elected officials to make it
easier for us to produce electricity in this country, most
notably the state of Ohio. Let's go to the phones.
You a Jay's guy, Jay, thanks so much for calling.
Welcome to the program. Hey, good morning, Brian.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
They wanted to did a little bit of math because
I can't help myself being a recovering engineer on school tax.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
Go back to the school tax a.

Speaker 4 (13:51):
Couple of years ago, and I would encourage listeners to
do this. You can call your school, talk to the
treasurer and ask for a copy.

Speaker 5 (13:57):
Of the budget and take a while.

Speaker 4 (14:00):
But I finally got it, and as I was going
down through it, I saw that we are paying. And
this is Springboro, north of town quite a way. We
have two athletic directors, not one, but two on the payroll.
And when I went to college, I took engineering because
it was you know, all these credits cost the same

(14:21):
but this one pays the most. You probably did the
same thing with attorney because you know it's hard.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
But it pays well.

Speaker 4 (14:28):
No athletic director, Yeah it can. Well this the senior
athletic director is getting one hundred and twenty five thousand
dollars a year, and the junior athletic director is getting
one hundred thousand dollars a year.

Speaker 6 (14:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (14:44):
So I took that number and said, let's multiply that
time zero point seven to see how much property tax
is paying. And I came up with a number like
one hundred and fifty six thousand dollars. Ident If I
divide that by let's say I think a seven hundred
thousand dollars house pays about fifty six hundred dollars in
property tax a year. Where that says an order to

(15:05):
that's a that's a that's a seven hundred.

Speaker 7 (15:07):
Thousand dollar house.

Speaker 4 (15:09):
That says twenty seven hundred thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
Yeah, it might be low. That sounds low for property
tax on a seven hundred thousand dollars house. Anyway, I
don't need to interject my commons. I apologize. Well, no,
I take it back.

Speaker 7 (15:22):
It is low.

Speaker 4 (15:23):
I took seventy percent of the property tax of a
seven hundred thousand dollars house. Let's let's say it's closer
to like eight nine thousand bucks, so seventy percent of
that goes to schools. The point is it takes twenty
eight homes who it's seven hundred thousand dollars to pay
for the two athletic directors. So let me put a
different way. Take a take it to three hundred and

(15:44):
fifty thousand dollars house. It takes fifty six houses, damn
near you know, a neighbor a small neighborhood. The fund
that just two athletic directors. And we're not even talking
about the football field. That's a million bucks that has
to be redone every I don't know, five years they score.
We can't have wooden bleachers anymore where they have to
be aluminum, right, and everything that comes along with the

(16:08):
care and the feeding and the mowing and the upkeep.
So when you start thinking about that, but just in
term of these athletic directors. I don't know about you,
but when I was in high school, I didn't know
what the term athletic director was until I went to college.
And I still didn't understand what that was because our
athletic director, the football coach, was the history teacher.

Speaker 7 (16:27):
Yeah, probably got.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
The gym teachers history teachers. I think we had a
oh what do they call sex ad back then? But anyway, Yeah,
they doubled. They taught classes in certain areas, and then
they were out on the football field or the baseball
or whatever they happened to do. In terms of their coaching.
I don't know there was really much coordination beyond them
just saying, you know, you're you're the coach of the

(16:49):
football team, and oh, by the way, a health class
you're going to be teaching health class as well. Okay,
there's your athletic director role fulfilled bingo.

Speaker 4 (16:57):
So so I bring this up to is yet another
example of what happens if we stop funding schools through
what happens if we don't do property tax anymore in Ohio. Well,
remember seventy percent of the money goes to the schools,
and maybe they'll have to have the history teacher becomes
a football coach again, and you get in this case,

(17:17):
you get fifty six three hundred thousand dollars homes worth
of cash freed up to you know, funds like reading, writing,
and arithmetics. So I would say, don't panic. The schools
have more money than they know what to do with.
Sign the petition get rid of property tax. The Republicans
and the powers that be were never going to get
rid of it. And whatever you do, Brian, I hope

(17:41):
this is taking in. Don't vote Democrats.

Speaker 1 (17:45):
I appreciate it.

Speaker 6 (17:46):
Man.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
Oh, then there's that whole pesky Supreme Court decision from
twenty years ago which says our current school funding mechanism
is unconstitutional. Still trying to figure that one out, folks
by twenty six right now, feel free to jime me
in five on three ninety two to three talk calls
or local stories coming up. You're right back bout thirty

(18:07):
one on a Friday Eve. Happy Friday Eve, gonna go
to the phones. I got Tom on the line. That
way Sean can reboot his computer system, which apparently has
failed him. So we'll see if we can't get Tom
in here before Shawn disappears from my field division. Tom,
welcome to the morning show. I'd be Friday Eve. Hey,
good morning, how you doing I'm doing fine. I'm doing fine,
Thank you so mate.

Speaker 8 (18:27):
And gott I am I'm on my way to work.
Got to help pay for all this craziness.

Speaker 6 (18:34):
I guess it.

Speaker 8 (18:34):
Well, maybe it was just me, but you actually announced
gas prices yesterday and they still haven't come up with
gone back up. So maybe maybe as long as I
don't say it out loud, we're fine. But gas prices
Gift North the two seventy five or are still down.
People are heading that way or in that area. Run
up to Cincinnati Dayton Road, Tylersville and get you some
cheek gas.

Speaker 1 (18:54):
Yeah, you know what, it would be cool. I remember
the first time I ever paid more than a buck
for gas, and I'm going back to I think maybe
around my freshman year of college eighty three or four,
when it first tipped over you, and I would love
I haven't done the cost of living adjustment for the
dollar deflation over those years. I'd love to know what
a dollar back in say nineteen eighty four was versus

(19:18):
you know, it's spending power now and figure out what
the cost of guess is now relative to then.

Speaker 8 (19:23):
I distinctly remember when I first moved up here in
ninety so it actually would have been early ninety one,
and I remember it was on my birthday. In March,
LW had a remote up in Fairfield at a brand
new gas station and they dropped the gas prices to
seventy cents for I mean whatever, I don't know, a

(19:45):
couple of hours or whatever. And as a promotion. And
I remember meeting Andy mac Williams, so that was one
of my big celebrity meetings. So that was a pretty
big deal. And he's got the same birthday as me,
and I think the radio station too, so it's kind
of cool. I don't want to digress too far, but yeah, yes, prices, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

(20:09):
I caught myself real. Oh heck, I'm going way back.
Good that it's been a minute. Isn't that what the
kids saying? It's been a minute?

Speaker 6 (20:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (20:16):
I called because, uh, just another reminder of how absolutely
ridiculously stupid these liberals are.

Speaker 6 (20:23):
Uh.

Speaker 8 (20:23):
There, there's a statement that's been made by quite a
few people. I think I've even heard you say it.
And even if Donald Trump your cancer, the left would
it would hate him for it, right, uh And and
it was something to that effect, and it was it
was always said sort of tongue in cheek, assumed it was,
you know, an exaggeration to make an effect and hyperbolic

(20:44):
and all that. Brian, It's not an exaggeration, it's the
absolute truth. I mean, look at these ladies who are
getting on TikTok and they're intentionally like downing tyl and
all just to get what what the hell is wrong
with people?

Speaker 1 (20:59):
I mean meme on that one it was a picture
of President Donald Trump saying don't ever drink your own urine,
and then it was a picture below of a woman
with a plastic bottle that was filled with what obviously
appeared to be urine.

Speaker 8 (21:11):
So you know, I don't, I don't, there is there
is something very wrong with these people. It's I I
went back and I looked up the little clip from
a Bob Hope movie in the forties, some zombie movie
where some guys going on talking about the zombies and
how they wander around and they don't know what they're
doing and all that, and he and Bob ho was like, oh,

(21:33):
you mean like democrats. Yeah, you know, if it was
pretty much true back then and it's still true now.
I mean that this is what we're dealing with. This
is that this is a group of people who have
a big say over what happens in this country, whether
by protesting, whether they're elected to the office or something
like that.

Speaker 6 (21:52):
It is.

Speaker 8 (21:52):
It is frightening, Brian. The stuff that they are pushing
and trying to make happen. It's scary. And the people
that support him are not They don't know what the
hell they're doing. They are just going on pure emotion.
They're not using any common sense whatsoever. Please, people don't
go along with this crap. And as Jay says, don't
vote Democrat.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
That's a great day, Brian, And I'll just add a
little extra to that statement and say, and be careful
about which Republicans you vote for five point thirty five
right now fifty five care seedy talk stays and you
feel for fear to chime in kal five won three
seven four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred eight two
three talk eight pound, five fifty. If you have an
AT and T phone and another number, I'm going to
give you a number for QC Kinetics, which can help

(22:34):
you with that pain. Maybe that's why you take them
up in the free consultation to find out if they
can help you. Are you a good candidate for these
natural regenitive cellular level treatments coming from your own body,
which heal and restore the damage joint tissue. This is
where you're dealing with arthritis, hip pain, knee pain, back pain,
that kind of thing, and people are getting some great results.
You know a list of all these success stories. I

(22:55):
mentioned a couple over the last couple of weeks, Broke.
How about Brody in his own words, I came to
quee Kinetics about four or five months ago. At the time,
I could hardly walk. I couldn't walk up an downstairs.
I couldn't ride a bike, I couldn't dance. Last night
I danced. I'm walking, I'm back on weight machines, and
I've had about four or five treatments. I highly recommend
this treatment to anybody who's having any issues. Brody and

(23:18):
other success stories, and there are thousands of success stories.
So are the treatments going to work for you? You're done,
You're you're over the steroid injections. You don't want to
go into the ninth and the surgery is your next option.
How about trying them out? Call them up five one
three eight, four seven zero zero one nine five one
three eight four seven zero zero one nine that's five
one three eight four seven zero zero.

Speaker 3 (23:37):
One nine fifty five krc.

Speaker 1 (23:40):
If you're looking for a world club, it's five forty
fifty five KRCD talk station. I've eat Friday, Eat Thursday,
Huge fer shit in front a stack of stupids. Since
Jay brought up tile and all in connection with crazy
leftist doing anything, Donald Trump says the opposite of anything.
Donald Trump says so, and that was the case of
the title. He comes out and he says, you know, tailan'ol,

(24:02):
it can be a problem. It may increase the risk
of autism. Quote. For this reason, they are they the
Health and Human Services Department are strongly recommending that women
limit taler all use during pregnancy and less medically necessary.
There's it's a recommendation. You have a choice. You can
choose to ignore the recommendation, or you can listen to

(24:25):
the recommendation and heed the warning. You have been warned.
It's kind of comical because you know, that internet thing
kind of funny because if you say it and you
put it out here in the world, it's never ever
going away. So as jokes say, don't film yourself having
sex unless you want the world to see it, because
it's going to happen. And if you're talan' all the

(24:46):
company that owned talanoll or owned it, whatever, whatever. March seventh,
twenty seventeen, there's a social media account for the tail
and All folks. It has not had a post since
twenty twenty one, but you know how social media users are,
they look back and see what talanoll had to say
about its own problem prior to that when they're actually posting.
So March seven, twenty seventeen, tailand All posted quote, we
actually don't recommend using any of our products while pregnant.

(25:09):
Thank you for taking the time to voice your concerns today.
That's Thailand All about its own product. Another post reads,
congrats on your upcoming edition, meaning the pregnancy is so exciting,
it'd be great to touch base real quick, since we
haven't tested tile and All to be used during pregnancy,
said the folks from tailand All about their own product. No,

(25:33):
but you got to get a COVID jeb or we're
gonna fire you. See. No choice. By the way, during
COVID pandemic, you're not allowed to get at ivermected even
if you think it might work. Your doctor sits down
and says, you know, it is a possibility that it
might work, but I'm sorry I can't prescribe it to you.
I've been told by my lords and masters that it
might get my license pulled if I recommend something other

(25:56):
than the government san you sanctioned emergency use authorization. Mr
a COVID vaccine. New York City fell and known as
the Burbery Bandit because he wears a burbery patterned shirt.
He's been released again underscore that word. Cornell Neely, thirty five,
earned the nickname Burbery Bandit after he was caught on

(26:17):
surveillance camera back in twenty twelve wearing a very similar
pattern associated with Burbury brand luxury items. Arrested September fifteenth,
just recently after police said he robbed five banks throughout
New York City over the course of one month. Each case,
he allegedly passed a note passing note to the bank
teller demanding cash. According to the New York Police Department,

(26:41):
accused bank ground bringing spree allegedly began August sixteen. He
walked into the Chase Bank on Seventh Avenue, Midtown, Manhattan,
handed the teller note demanding thirty five hundred bucks teller
handed him a thousand dollars before he walked out. Allegedly
asked for the same amount of money when he entered
the Chase Bank on Park Avenue, where he ultimately walked out.
I was seven hundred and sixteen dollars. A couple of

(27:03):
weeks later, September ninth, accused of entering another Chase Bank Midtown,
asked for forty five hundred dollars, but reportedly ran off
when the teller sounded the alarm. September twelfth, demanded thirty
five hundred dollars from the Chase Bank on West four
to three. He's obviously got a problem with Chase Bank.
Next day, allegedly made off empty handed after the handing
the teller at the Chelsea Chase Bank a note that read,

(27:25):
this is a robbery. I want all large bills now.
This is real. The employee triggered the bank alarm system
and he ran off rap sheet. Here's where we go,
the spinning wheel of justice. Thirty four prior arrest for
previous bank robberies. Bank robberies, that's a federal offense. Peer

(27:49):
in front of a Brooklyn Supreme Court Judge Jeffrey Gershuny,
he was allowed back on the streets on supervised release.
Appointee of Mayor then Mayor bild A Blasio rejected the
prosecution request for a fifty thousand dollars cash bill or
one hundred fifty thousand dollars bond. One New York Police

(28:09):
officer quote of the fact that this bail was declined
by the judge is negligent on the judge's part and
shows a real lack of care for public safety, asking
at what point does he keep getting out and gets
desperate and brings a gun to a robbery instead of
a note and kills somebody. That's a legitimate question. See,
you need to factor in the public safety decision to

(28:33):
let him out comes a month after he was demoted
to presiding over misdemeanor cases. This judge in criminal court
following an incident which he reportedly pulled out his own
gun on the bench while hearing a weapons case. Yeah.

(28:55):
If I walked into a bank today and I robbed it,
I guarantee you I'd be put in jail. They try
and convict me in no time and probably throw away
the key. I don't feel like Brian Thomas of the
host of The Fifty five KRCY Morning show would get
the left wing social justice love if I was in

(29:17):
a courtroom for a comparable offense, just making a statement.
Gate of Heaven Cemetery. Actually yeah, well okay, yeah, I'm
running through my spot list Gate of Heaven Cemetery. It's
a beautiful, beautiful location Montgomery Road. It's real close to
two seventy five in Montgomery Road, so general idea of
where it is, and it's well worth a trip to

(29:38):
Gate of Heaven because it is a just an absolutely
beautifully maintained, gorgeous landscaping. It's trankful, it's peaceful, and the
point is they have created this ideal environment for prayer,
reflection and remembrance about life every phase of life, birth, life, smilestones,
and of course passing into eternal life. Gate of Heaven
recognizes and revers the sacredness of the hum and journey

(30:00):
in every phase of it. So choose to reflect, choose
to pray, choose to engage in something positive for your health,
and contemplate maybe even the brevity of life. Gate of
Heaven dot org is where you can learn more about
service details and pre planning options, and a whole lot
about the cemetery again seventy seven years serving the cris
CINCINNTI Christian Community Gate of Heaven dot Org five fifty

(30:23):
one fifty five CARCD talk station. John McMahon covered for
the vacationing jist tracker and struggling with the phone lines.
Got a phone issue going on right now. He's busily
trying to resolve that. So in lieu of phone calls,
so we would go back to the stack of stupid.
We've got plenty coming up at fifty five Carsite Mornings
s you're including Congressman Warre and Davidson at seven oh five,
Daniel Flynn with his book The Man Who Invented Conservatism,

(30:45):
and of course our dear friend Jay Ratliffe, our iHeartMedia
aviation expert at eight thirty. Let's see here this is outrageous.
One customer had some reservations about a bill at a
restaurant and receive frustrated customer claim they were charge urged
ready a quote quiet time surcharge close quote on the

(31:07):
restaurant bill. It was added before the tip why the
restaurant was empty. User, of course went to social media.
They went to this restaurant for the first time said,
it's looked like a decent place is to stop in
and eat. According to the people that got the bill

(31:28):
at the end of the meal, I checked my bill
and there's an extra twenty percent pre tip charge labeled
quiet time surcharge. They thought this got to be an error.
What the hell is that? I never even heard of it,
The server described as looking sheepishly before explaining that management says,
when it's not busy, you're basically getting the whole place

(31:52):
to yourself, kind of like flying a private flying private
instead of commercial on the airlines. Obviously, the customer taken
aback by that. Are you kidding me? I'm not chartering
a restaurant. I just want dinner. If anything, it's less
service work when the place is empty.

Speaker 9 (32:13):
Yeah, no question about it. Cost it's what I mean,
think about the nerve of that your restaurant is not popular.
So I mean, apparently it's not popular, not that it's
not populated by a bunch of people that want to
eat there. So you're charging the few people who went
in extra money to enjoy the empty space. Not a

(32:35):
winning recipe for a business, I would venture to guess.
Go to Marlborough Massachusett's. A shoplifting incident there led police
to seize about thirteen point eight grams of cocaine. Tevin Haywood,
who's thirty one, now facing charges after he tried to
shove plastic sandwich bags filled with white powder that appeared

(32:56):
to be cocaine into his mouth while being arrested. Police
initially called to a Target on Boston Post Road in
Marlborough for the shoplifting incident. A newspaper report of the
target employees told the police that Heywood and a female
suspect left the store with about one hundred and fifty
bucks worth of unpaid merchandise. The two fled on foot

(33:17):
ordered to stop. When Haywood was caught, he was quote
seeing stuffing plastic sandwich bag into his mouth close quote
a court of the community community advocant reporting on this
bag contained four or five bundles of white powder suspected
to be cocaine in a small bundle of blue powder
suspected to be fentanyl. Now facing several charges including shoplifting
by aspirtation, third offense, conspiracy, distorterly conduct, resistant arrest, assault, battery,

(33:42):
and a police officer possession of Class A controlled substance,
plusessession with a debt to distribute Class B substance and
tampering with evidence court of the newspaper and being absolutely
backcrap insane. First off, I'm struggling to try to figure
out how you could swallow an entire and I'm thinking,
like glad sand bag, that's what it was described as.
That's pretty sizable. Even trying to swallow an empty bag,

(34:04):
I think might represent a challenge. But this has got
drugs in it.

Speaker 1 (34:07):
Now. I don't know about eating cocaine probably could be deadly.
Don't know what the volume is in terms of grands,
whether that translates into a deadly amount, but pretty much
any level of fentanyl's going to kill you. Here, let
me swallow a whole bag of it. Well, welcome to
the stack of stupid moron. Anyhow, Uh, let's talk California

(34:27):
coming after your speech, among other things, and of course
violence going on regularly. I did lots of different topics
we can talk about. We've got a mixed bag, potpourri
of stuff, but also your opportunity to steer the direction
of the conversations. I'll let you know when the phone
line things get sorted out. Hoping they do be right
back after the top of the air news HI the
fifty five KARROC DE talk station. Very Happy Friday, eight

(34:49):
fifth Trian Thomas inviting phone call Sean mc mann covering
for the vacationing jist tracker has the phone problem. We
had a few moments go sort it out. So the
phone lines are open five on three seven one nine,
fifty eight hundred eight two three talk pardon me too,
five fifty on AT and T phones. Fast forward one hour.
Congressman Warren David's returns at the fifty five fifty a
ORC Morning Show, Warren Davidson. I guess a whole host

(35:11):
of topics we'd go down with Warren Davidson. Of course,
the hatred that's been spewed so much generally across political spectrum,
but most notably among the leftists, and obviously the constant
ongoing assault verbally and physically against ice officers who were
merely doing their job. I got a comment or two
about that as it relates to the new piece of
California legislation trying to prevent you from speaking your mind online.

(35:34):
Congressmanarren Davidson again seven oh five. Daniel Flynn's going to
join the program. He wrote a book called The Man
Who Invented Conservatism, The Unlikely Life of Frank S. Meyer.
Apparently a not widely known story about this guy communist
turn conservative, anti war activist turned soldier and a free
love enthusiast turned family man whose big idea captured the

(35:55):
American right, including the likes of Barry Goldrudter, Ronald Reagan
and other conservatives, should be a fascinating account. We'll get
to that at seven thirty. Fast forward to eight thirty.
I am one of my favorite times of the week.
I heard media aviation expert Jay Ratliffe. He did send
me a whole list of topics. We've got a lot
to go over with Jay. Oh yeah, feel free to call.
All right, now, you gotta have to help me unpackage

(36:17):
this one. We've been talking a lot about free speech
of late right. Free speech, free speech, hate speech is
protected speech. I'm sorry it sucks to be you, but
it is. I mean, I see things online to find offensive.
I can handle it now that we find it offensive.
That is our natural reaction. But that's the point of speech,
you know, say something and let us evaluate you the

(36:37):
content of your character basedupon the words coming under your
mouth of the meme that you post on Facebook. Right,
it's all okay, the vast majority of it anyway, California,
they're just waiting for Governor Newsom to sign this bill
and has passed past both chambers. I have state legislature.
It's ready to get Governor at avenue In's signature. It's

(36:59):
called SB seven to seventy one, described as a controversial
bill that would impose fines up to one million dollars
on social media platforms that failed to censor content deemed
in violation of state civil rights laws, state civil rights laws.

(37:25):
State democrats reportally or justifying this bill, citing the rising
incidents of hate motivated harm that sound familiar to you.
Oh yeah, somebody got killed yesterday by a sniper shooting
at ice officers. Okay, a lot of hate motivated toward
ice officers of Lake. You read about it the news

(37:46):
all the time. You've been inundated with these comments about
them being a bunch of Nazi jack boodh of thugs
and I don't know, the embodiment of pure evil rounding
up little children and dragging them into prison. Yeah, these
outrageous stories of the left. Pedals are just a bunch of
crap nonsense, make any sense when you peel back to
venear of this this vile comment they make and they're

(38:06):
doing a job anyway. So the focus on this bill
to curb your speech or actually find social media platforms
that post or repost your speech. Part of it. Okay,
rising intent, a motivated hate of hate motivated harm plus
hate crimes involving anti immigrant slurs. So anti immigrant slur

(38:34):
results in some form of criminal activity, like you punch
somebody in the face while making a hate filled race
based comment, then they're going to prosecute you for the assault,
the battery, the harm, which exists independently of anything related
to the reason why you launch the punch. And in
a world where we ascribe additional penalties that relate to

(38:57):
the underlying motivation, which I hate. Ah, there's that word.
I think it's a terrible thing. It's in front of
the First Amendment. Your motivation shouldn't matter. Did you hit
the person? Yes, Okay, you're guilty. So that's just my
boiled down analysis of hate crimes generally. But the hate
crimes are on the book in California. So if you
say I hate you maybe whitey, or use maybe the

(39:21):
N word or some disparaging remark to refer to Hispanic
people or Asian people. Then you're gonna be tried for
a hate crime. On top of it. It's like using
a gun in the commission of a felony. You're gonna
get a piled on extra charge. There you go. That's
the boiled down version of what it bounds. What hate
crime is now. This bill apparently cited data from the
Human Rights Campaign and something called the Center for Countering

(39:42):
Digital Hate, which they claim show a four hundred percent
rise in anti LGBTQ plus disinformation and harmful rhetoric on
major social media platforms. Well, there's a little bit to
unpackage as well. What is LGBTQ plus disinformation? Going back
to my regularly oft use example, sorry to be a

(40:04):
dead horse, folks who regularly listen to me. But I'm
going back to the tea part and all of that.
Am I going to be accused of disinformation for asserting
my scientific based belief system that says a guy can't
be a woman, you can't change chromosomes, you can fake
it on the outside, doctor up the genitals, so to speak,

(40:27):
but your chromosome or reality or biological reality is one
the same. You are a guy or a girl, period,
and a story the way you were born, belief in
what you are. Different story you're in toited your own
belief systems. And I don't have a problem with that.
But is that hatred? It's not. I don't think it's disinformation.
It's a perspective and point of view of looking at it.
This is the problem you get into. What is hate quota?

(40:47):
The bill quote the proposed The purpose of this act
is not to regulate speech or viewpoint, but to clarify
that social media platforms, like all other businesses, may not
knowingly use their systems to promote, facilitate, or contribute to
conduct that violates state civil rights laws. Now post for

(41:11):
a moment and help me out here. And I'm trying
to envision a situation where this, how this applies. What
are we talking about. We're talking about online posts. That
is not a physical activity. That is not a punch
in the face, It is not stealing money from someone.
It's it's not a crime. The First Amendment allows for

(41:34):
the free exercise of speech, and you can counter the evil,
vile whatever you think constitutes a hate post with additional speech,
like everybody's been doing in response to all the evil
posts about Charlie Kirk. He deserved it, I response, No
he didn't. You're crazy, you know, back and forth. But
the post itself is not a form of violence. And

(41:58):
how could somethings show up on social media? How can
you connect that to contributing to conduct that violates state
civil rights laws? Are they going to go back and
try to create an evidentiary chain that some crazy Dylan
ruth out there saw your social media post that was
reposted or facilitated or hosted by X social media company.

(42:21):
Not X the company, but you know, Facebook, whatever happens.

Speaker 7 (42:24):
To be.

Speaker 1 (42:26):
Crazy killer reads something that you posted that the state
of California deems hateful, and they want to go after
the social media company for some exercise of speech in
a post you put up that they reposted. I don't
get this at all. It doesn't make any sense. One guy,
director of digital media a company called r Street Institute

(42:49):
Showshana Weisman anyway, made a good point. If people think
platforms remove their content too much, now they should expect
to see the patterns significantly intensify with this law. Rather
than risk liability for showing users content, one could argue,
even if it doesn't actually violate a law, platforms will
over moderate and remove posts in order to stay out

(43:12):
of court. Exactly this is uncharted. Waters Do I want
to pay a lawyer one thousand dollars an hour to
defend me? Says corporate media company or social media company? Well, no,
screw it. I'll just take the post down, and I'll
use a wide net when I'm talking about pulling posts down,
because I don't want to go down that road. I
don't want to deal with one of these left wing
California prosecutors and have to defend myself in court, even

(43:33):
though I know I'm on solid First Amendment grounds on this.
Under the proposed law, platforms with one hundred million dollars
or more in annual revenue could face one million in
fines if they intentionally, knowingly or willfully quote relay close
quote content that violates state law through their algorithms. The

(44:00):
reliance of conduct is in and of self, a form
of free speech. No one has engaged in activity that
could be considered criminal, and yet here the California California's
going right after the company, They just allowed this whatever
post to be posted, and is how can you as

(44:21):
a social media company, again ignoring what I just pointed
out that a post is not a crime, although this
law seeks to make it into a finable offense. How
do you know ahead of time if you are violating
state hate crime laws? That's such a nebulous form of

(44:42):
jurisprudence anyway, Is in whose eye? Is it hate in
your eyes? Is it hate in the prosecutor's eyes? Is
it hate in the eyes of some very sensitive, get
balled up in a fetal position, young person that can't
handle the reality that sometimes are going to be confronted
with speech that they don't like. How do you know
ahead of time whether you violated that law?

Speaker 10 (45:03):
You can't.

Speaker 1 (45:07):
It just goes anyway. I'm just I'm confused as hell
about this. I find it absolutely crazy. And you know,
the other layer of craziness is the motivation for putting
this facially unconstitutional law in the books in California was
because of anti lgbt LGBTQ plus disinformation and harmful rutor.

(45:30):
They didn't focus on anything related to anger, angry comment, hatred,
vile hatred spewed toward ice officers. You know why, because
your position, your employment status, what you do for a
living is not a protected characteristic. Now, there's enough hate

(45:53):
out there against law enforcement generally speaking, perhaps they should
add profession to the list of protected character teristics. Huh,
because right now in California, the protected characteristics are race, religion,
sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, ethnicity, and mathe national origin.
Nothing in there about your career. So if a bunch

(46:17):
of crazies in the world deem your lawful career, you
are enforcing books that Congress or various state legislative bodies
governors signed into law along the criminal lines. That all
went through the normal course of process, the constitutional process,
the state constitution, the federal constitution. It's a law on
the books. We have law enforcement. What do they do.
They enforce laws on the books. Their profession is designed

(46:41):
to that. You have demonized their profession into something where
you deem it lawless and against everything American. You're just
ignoring the process that led us to this point. Why
can't we have law enforcement on the list of protected
carecharacteristics or huh? Corporate CEOs Brian Thompson comes to mind.

(47:09):
Got a couple of collars online. I'm looking forward to
taking those callers when I get right back. And I
mentioned first though, a really amazing product. I love the
Galaxy Concrete Coatings of Cincinnati. Products one hundred and forty

after the top of the hour, News seven oh five
with Congressman Davidson about an hour away from Daniel Flynn
with the book The Man Who Invented Conservatism. Of course,
Jay Ratlofe coming up in a couple of hours in
the meantime, and see what Mike's got this morning. Mike,
thanks for calling the program, Welcome to the show.

Speaker 2 (49:34):
Hey, thanks, Brian, thanks taking much call. I just want
to comment on this whole Gavin Newsom thing and everything
else that Democrats seem to be pushing forth in their
narratives or being these moral gatekeepers. To me, it reminds
me of this brilliant joke from Austin Power's Part three,

(49:58):
where Michael came says, you know, there are two things
in this world I hate, you know, people who are
intolerance of other people's cultures.

Speaker 6 (50:07):
And dut Dutch.

Speaker 1 (50:08):
Yeah, I remember that.

Speaker 2 (50:09):
Yeah, And it's just this entire instandy of them wanting
to push forth this narrative that you know, intolerance is
bad unless we approve it. You know, we hate racism
unless you're Jewish we hate you know, sexism unless you're
a transgender woman who wants to play in you know,

(50:30):
women's sports. And this hypocrisy has got to stop because
this is just it's breaking our country in half.

Speaker 1 (50:39):
Well, yeah, there is a huge component of that, and
I'm a firm believer that a lot of outside nefarious
forces that stir the part of this division for the
purposes of turning our country in half. But in terms
of politics in the United States, part of me just
wants to say, let them go, let them continue doing this.
They're only digging themselves a hole that's getting deeper and deeper.
They can't remember, not read well in the polls on

(51:01):
all the issues that you might and I care about,
the economy, immigration, maybe the debt, the deficit. Again, we
could go on for a long time, but far more
important issues than the ones that are harping and complained
about all the time. But the hypocrisy is on full display,
which makes their problem worse. Again, going back to this
so called hate censorship civil penalty thing going on, it

(51:23):
was predicated on hatred toward the LGBTQ plus community, but
they ignore and do not even bring up the absolute
insane level of right wing directed violence and vitriol. Yeah,
we're not gonna pay attention to that, or or lie
straight to your face and say, no, that's not even

(51:44):
a thing. It's like the FBI under Biden and Obama.
The biggest threat to the United States of America is
right wing extremism. While Antifah has camped out in every
major American city, burning buildings down, assaulting and accosting police officers. Meanwhile,
Donald Trump, just the other has declared the uh, he's
gonna he's gonna dismantle Antifa after declaring them a terrorist organization. Well,

(52:06):
I think he has good reason to do that, but
you know, remind me a lot of bad Dad Bob.
You know, the news reporters on the streets fires raging
at the ANTIFA protests and the Black Lives Matter protests,
protests that were predicated on, uh, maybe somewhat of a
lie with the George Floyd thing. Where were all the

(52:28):
right wingers taken to the streets after Charlie Kirk got shot.
It didn't happen, did it? All the right wingers out
there calling for calm, asking for to lower the volume
on the rhetoric, to engage in perhaps a more Christian
christ like message, which is what Charlie Kirk preached. That's
what I'm hearing and seeing right now. And in the

(52:49):
aftermath of Charlie Kirk's assassination, what do he got another
crazy loon ANTIFA affiliated leftists attempting to murder ICE officers. Now,
maybe California will be able to connect the dots. Maybe
there's some social media posts after this laws passed, if
we could rewind time the laws already on the books.
Let's say, let's try to put that scenario into the

(53:10):
California law. That's going to find the media companies that
allowed some vile posts that influenced this guy on the roof.
Maybe they could even quote Gavin Newsom in connection with
an anti ICE post that goes up on social media.
Gavin Newsom's going after the ICE agents. It impacts this
crazy guy on the roof. Now, if the law protected

(53:32):
ICE agents and deemed them to be a protected category
within hate speech, I don't even see how they can
connect the dots and civilly find somebody for even doing that.
They just posted it. That's it. I just think just
got me completely perplexed this morning, six twenty five fifty
five KRC detalk station. Your calls or local stories coming

(53:53):
up five eight hundred eighty two to three dog pound
five fifty on eighten Do you want to save yourself
a heapload of money and get better medical insurance? It's
that time of year were fast approaching. If it isn't
already here open enrollment for your employers. You got three
choices here as an HMO and a PPO and something
else or whatever. Tons of out of pocket liability responsibility,

(54:13):
maybe even as much as nine or ten thousand dollars
before the insurance kicks in. Oh that's right. I've got
a family, they're all into this one big policy. Why
don't you double that out of pocket liability before the
insurance even kicks in. Terrible scenario, isn't it. Medical bills
got like the number one cause of bankruptcy in this country.
If you have better medical insurance and you pay less
money for it, don't you think that's a good thing.
That's exactly what covers. Since he's all about I don't

(54:35):
care what state here, and that can help you out
all fifty states. They're your broker. They have hundreds of
insurance companies out in the world that issue medical insurance policies,
thousands of those policies, so they'll layer a package of insurance,
putting dollar one coverage in your in your hands as
well as the catastrophic coverage and everything else you'd expect
filling put plugging the holes in the bucket is John

(54:56):
Roulman from Cover. Since who likes to call it with
couples under sixty five saving between five hundred and one
thousand dollars a month with better coverage sounds impossible to believe.
Why not try it out? Call them up. They're gonna
review your entire situation and they're gonna prepare package directly
for you. If it will save you money and get

Turn up your radio. Here's a Sean Hannity Morning minute.

Speaker 12 (55:57):
You know, these politically motivated acts of violence have got
to stop.

Speaker 1 (56:03):
I don't think there's.

Speaker 13 (56:04):
Any denying anymore.

Speaker 1 (56:06):
And I'm not blaming you, blame the shooter.

Speaker 12 (56:08):
I'm not going to take the ridiculous liberal argument and
say that words called the words are having an impact.
You know, we found anti ICE messages on the shooters rounds.
At least three people shot, one killed, and they're shooting
this morning, and the FBI says they are investigating this
incident as a targeted attack against ICE. There has been

(56:34):
a one thousand percent increase in threats against ICE agents
around the country.

Speaker 5 (56:42):
Check out the Sean Hannity radio show later today right here.

Speaker 14 (56:51):
You know, it was nearly two years ago that terrorists
murdered more than twelve hundred innocent Israelis, took two hundred
and fifty hostages, murder, rape, kidnapping, torture, even beheading. Today
it seems as if the cries of the dead and
the dying have been drowned out. And yet as the
world may look away, light is shining in this darkness.

(57:12):
And it is a movement of love and support for
the good people of Israel. It's called the Flags of Fellowship.
It's organized by our friends at the International Fellowship of
Christians and Jews. And on October the fifth, just a
few weeks away, millions across America will prayerfully plant an
Israeli flag in honor and solidarity with the victims of

(57:34):

Speaker 15 (59:01):
Hi, Brian, thinking about the new LOLLI just passed in
California where they're trying to keep ice agents from wearing
a mask.

Speaker 5 (59:08):
On their face so you can see.

Speaker 8 (59:09):
Who they are.

Speaker 16 (59:12):
I saw a video they did.

Speaker 8 (59:13):
They were talking about YouTube about it.

Speaker 15 (59:17):
They brought up the point that during COVID Gavin Newsom
pointed out that certain face coverings are not masks, and
I think Gators were one of them, you know, Like
they's like, no, you can't, that's not a mask. You
have to wear this.

Speaker 10 (59:30):
This is a mask.

Speaker 15 (59:30):
So he's like, well, you said this wasn't a mask,
So we're okay putting this on our face right.

Speaker 7 (59:38):
By the road rule.

Speaker 16 (59:39):
They're trying to.

Speaker 1 (59:40):
You know, like, well, you know, I guess it's application specific.
If it's a COVID mask, the closest you can get
to something that works is like an N ninety five.
So there's your COVID, your COVID compliant mask. Now, if
you're an anti fought protester, then any kind of mask
is not a mask.

Speaker 16 (59:56):
I guess.

Speaker 1 (01:00:00):
More lunacy from their friends in California. Wow, appreciate that.
Excuse me, cough button. It's just so comical when you
when you when you dive through it and look at it.
I guess the funnier part about this is what are
they going to do if there's another pandemic, and masks

(01:00:22):
actually might be a solution to the problem. So nobody
accept or everybody accept ICE agents must wear a mask.
It makes it easier to identify the ICE agents because
they'll be the ones without the mask, while everyone else
walks around with a mask on. All Right, Locally, the
pothole solution is it going to be solved with this
grant received by an entrepreneur who implemented a new solution

(01:00:42):
to detect potholes in the city of Cincinnati. Now, you
may recall the City of Cincinnati had an outreach program
seeking entrepreneurs out in the world for offering five thousand
dollars grant if they could come up with an idea
to fix our pothole situation the city Cincinnati. So yesterday
they said they took sixty eight applicants. Six finalists were selected,
and a panel of judges can including Cincinnati City Council

(01:01:05):
Member Evan Nolan selected. Congratulations, Nate yan geeze geise I.
Hope I'm pronouncing that correctly. Nate, you get credit. He's
got the funds because he came up with an app
for this. According to mister Geese, have you ever hit
a pothole so hard you thought your phone registered it, Well,

(01:01:26):
it did. Your phone has an accelerometer and a GPS senate,
and we should use that to improve our city's data collection.
He said. Most smartphones, well that was a slipt. Most
smartphones can detect your speed and can detect a bump.
So he proposed the software that would record the bumps
as the users are driving around, and then with the
GPS it records the bumps can establish a detect incision

(01:01:48):
at a system that can predict where the potholes are.
He said. By crowdsourcing all of this data and coupling
it with reported potholes, you have that number you can
call to reporting existing potholes. He said, they can establish
which potholes may be the highest priority and immediately send
workers to fix them. Said ideally the system would be

(01:02:09):
in the background of existing city apps like Sincy three
to one one parking meter apps like easy Fare, and
he said by putting it in the apps, something embedded
within the app. Dave had or might have a word
or two to say about this. He said, more years
users would be actively using the system because they already
have the apps on their phone. His proposal included an
incentive proposal that would see users earn points for reporting

(01:02:33):
potholes and provide rewards for more options. Counsel of Nolan
said the city officials were already in contact with this
guy and five other participants to look at their solutions
as well. All I can say is that this gets
rolled out and you've got this, you know, embedded app
on your phone. Please do me a favor and every
single day, as often as your car can handle it,
drive up and down sunset every day. That maybe that

(01:02:57):
will get the job done. Sixty six five krc Detok Station.

Speaker 1 (01:05:07):
Sixty two. If you about krc DE talk station, hope
you're having a decent Thursday, five one three seven pointine
fifty five hundred eight hundred eight th three talk looking
forward to Congressman Davidson now on after the top of
the hour news randomed wasn't quite your instruction. I wanted
to go, So why don't just choose this meme that
popped up in front of my face? A Facebook post
from a guy I will not name, not a real
friend in the friendship sense. I don't know this person,

(01:05:29):
but I do know him to be a hardcore leftist.
But since he has quote unquote friends with me on Facebook.
I see his post or maybe her, so she reposts
this memes by some other memester who's obviously a left winger.
For the record, I refuse to stop calling you fascist
if everything you do is what fascists do. Masked thugs

(01:05:53):
grabbing people off the street without due process, ignoring the courts,
stifling free speech. F word. All So that's what's reposted
by this guy under the heading fascist is as fascist does.
Now let's break down mask thugs grabbing people off the
street without due process. All right. So there's your your
angry vitriol directed at ice agents calling them thugs and

(01:06:16):
they are doing their job. How does due process work?
If you're out on the street and an officer believes
you have committed a crime, what happens They, in essence,
grab you off the street, your issue to citation, your
process through the criminal court system, and that is when
you received due process before a judge, maybe in front

(01:06:38):
of a peer, a juror a jury of your peers,
or maybe you're getting a bench trial. Either way, that's
the point at which due process shows up. So these
so called mask thubs grabbing people off the street yes
they will, but then they determine their immigration status and
whether or not they're criminals at that time, go through
the due process of deportation, which is where the due
process comes in, and then fly them out of the country.

(01:07:00):
That's the order of things. You don't provide due process
on the street. The probabile cause to pick you up.
They pick you up. If they were wrong, then your
due process will result in your release. Specifically, ignoring the courts,
I mean that's a two way street. I don't know
what specifically this person was meaning by ignoring the courts.
And I presume be talking about Donald Trump ignoring the course,

(01:07:22):
but how many illustrations of district courts, the lower level
of federal courts have been ignoring higher court decisions. So
if someone's ignoring the courts, it happens even within the
judicial system. So that may be a two way street.
No one should ignore the courts. But that's his illustration
of what a fascist is. And then finally stifling free speech,
and I'll just refer you back to the article and

(01:07:43):
the new piece of legislation in California which will find
social media companies for merely allowing you to post something
that they deem hateful if they can connect it with
a hate crime, that makes no sense. Rewind and listen
to the prior hours conversation on that. I'm baffled completely
by it. But of course the left is the one

(01:08:03):
stifling free speech, so I suppose then we can blame
the left for all that. See the most recent Google
letter from the Google attorneys or the Alphabet attorneys acknowledging
and admitting that they suppressed your speech throughout the whole
COVID nineteen process, telling social media companies what they can
and cannot post relative to COVID vaccines, lockdown masks, et cetera,

(01:08:25):
et cetera. So yeah, who's the fascist now? Just keep
accusing the other side of doing exactly what you are
all about. Who is trying to regulate your every component
of your life. That will be government telling you how
you can and cannot use your land, you know, fill

(01:08:45):
in the blank on any number of things that we
are regulated to the point where we lose our rights
and our freedoms and our liberties. That's the left, thank
you very much. Socialism the means of production owned by
and controlled by the guy government. Fascism along the same lines,
is that they have a dynamic figurehead who's you know
which They always described to Trump, evil orange man. But

(01:09:08):
Trump's trying to deregulate your life. He may be the
popular figure, but listen, I don't see his picture posted everywhere.
I don't see people walking around providing some you know,
Donald Trump like salute.

and Warren Davidson after the top of the Aaron He's
sticking in California, but spent a lot of time there
this morning. Gavin Newsom's on CBS's Late Show. Just the
other day. Here's a quote from Gavin Newsom talking about
the the evil violent rhetoric. And this is a mirror
image of a lot of what the left are saying

(01:11:58):
about Donald Trump right now, they have apparently nothing to
run on, and he kind of admitted that in his statement,
which is here's the quote. We Democrats got crushed in
this last election, and now we're in a position where
we are struggling to communicate. Here you are, and I
don't think dropping liberal amounts of F bombs in every

(01:12:20):
politician's statement or post. I know you're going to get
clicks on that because people are like, oh my god,
I can't believe fill in the black person, drop the
F bomb and trying to make a point. That's not communicating,
its curses and it doesn't convey substance. So yeah, you're
struggling to communicate. You're struggling to find a message that
resonates with the American people. Anyway, interjecting my comments or anyway,
here's the rest of the quote. We're struggling to win

(01:12:43):
back now the majority in the House of Representatives. And
that's a big part of what I Governor Gavin Newsom doing,
not just today in terms of the work out here.
I'd love this. He immediately points to raising money. We
know it's important to Governor Newsom today in terms of
workout here, raising money but also raising awareness around how

(01:13:06):
Donald Trump is trying to rig the BG term elections
and how I fear that we will not have an
election in twenty twenty eight. I really mean that, and
the core at in the core of my soul unless
we wake up to the code read what's happening in
this country, and we wake up soberly to how serious

(01:13:27):
this moment is serious, meaning he is not going to
allow election in twenty twenty eight. He is suggesting that
the entire constitutional framework is going to somehow disappear. He
the party of ballot box stuffing, is worried about Donald
Trump rigging the big term election. Who's trying to stop
that from happening. Who's trying to return us to the
fur of one day of voting. Who's trying to stop

(01:13:48):
mail in ballots? That would be the Republican Party in
an effort to prevent ballot box stuffing and rigging elections,
mister Newsom. But the theme that is emerging among the Democrats,
it must be part of the talking points that somehow,
and you've seen it and heard it before. It's not
the start of this. It's kind of a continuing theme

(01:14:10):
they're trying to struggle because quote unquote evil Orange Man
just ain't cutting it anymore. Now it's evil Orange Man
is going to end democracy and if there was, I'm
just posing this as a thought exercise. There are a

(01:14:31):
lot of very conservative people out there, very constitutionally based
people out there, a lot of freedom loving people believe
in the Bill of Rights and like the freedoms that
God gave us and want to continue enjoying those. If
you had mom dammy kind of presidential campaign, or even
Alexander Alexander Casio Cortez, he's a hardcore socialist slash Marxist.

(01:14:55):
They're all about tearing our country apart and reimagining the
United States in some sort of like phoenix rising from
the ashes, new form. And we all know what that
new form would take. And that person really did pose
a genuine threat to the future of this country, the republic.

(01:15:20):
Don't you think that might spur or egg someone on
that might take a shot at someone in that position
who is doing well in the polls and advancing in
the ranks and offering up socialism as an alternative to
capitalism or what's left the capitalism in this country. That
truly would be a threat to democracy. I certainly wouldn't
suggest violence against that person, but look, you got Governor News.

(01:15:42):
I'm talking about Donald Trump threatening the very fabric of
our country's existence, saying if they don't do something and
we don't turn the ship around, we are not going
to have a country anymore. That's pretty strong stuff, especially
in a world filled with lunatic, insane, basement dwelling people
that have no social skills, isolated from humanity, no critical

(01:16:07):
thinking skills, brainwashed and believing some twisted political ideology. Yeah,
these comments are dare I say dangerous? Coming up at

Fifty five krs the talk station.

This report is SPONSORBLE.

Speaker 1 (01:16:52):
Seven five. Here a fifty five kr CD talk station.
Brian Thomas wishing everyone a happy Thursday Flast Friday. He
would like to refer to it in all, always excited
about having Congressman Warren Davidson on the program that's happening
right now. Welcome back to the fifty five Kersey Morning
Show and Congressman Warren Davidson. It's always a pleasure to
having you on the show.

Speaker 5 (01:17:09):
Yeah, always an honor and nice cycle with you.

Speaker 6 (01:17:11):
Brian.

Speaker 1 (01:17:11):
I thought about you laugh night. Last night. Your name
didn't actually come up, but I was at a rally
for Congressman Thomas Massey was Senator Ram Paul. They hit
multi stop rallies and they gave me the opportunity to
facilitate the event. No Big Joe's is like introducing a
lot of Kentucky elected officials. Of course, hearing from Senator
Ram Paul and Congressman Massey, and I thought about you.
I'm in the room with two of the very few

(01:17:35):
of all the elected officials in Washington, DC that I
actually have respect for, So I thought about you because
you're in that small list. Congressman Davidson, well, that's hi praise.

Speaker 5 (01:17:46):
I really appreciated Brian and here they had a pretty
good event, so it was good. There was a lot
of love and support for both of them.

Speaker 1 (01:17:53):
There a lot of and since it came up and
this is not a topic that even had on my
list to speak with you, but because it did come
up in Congressman Massey's comments, because now there are three
billionaires who are funding an anti Massy ad campaign, and
he brought it up because he believes it's completely connected
with the Epstein files. Because Congressman Massi is waiting for

(01:18:13):
the discharge petition, he's got all of the votes he
needs with the newly appointed representative, so we should be
seeing a vote on that soon. That obviously is going
to result in a vote on whether or not we
eat the American people can get the Epstein documents, which
looks like it probably will happen. I don't know what
happened to the Trump administration on this. They went complete
one point eighty but in connection with these billionaire ad campaigns,

(01:18:35):
one of them is on or is in Epstein's personal
phone book, which only had a couple of hundred names
in it. So he suspects that there is some connection
with the ad campaign and the desire to keep these
documents under wraps. Your reaction, Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:18:52):
I think he certainly's got a pretty strong feud going
on with President Trump, and President Trump is a guy
that be good to not have a feud with. I
know Thomas loves a lot of Trump policies, but he's
been consistent he doesn't vote for big spending, no matter
who's doing the spending, and he doesn't vote for foreign
aid no matter who the aid's going to. Some of

(01:19:12):
the Israeli folks took an offense at that, and it's like, no,
there's nothing special about my position with israel I. Don't
vote for foreign aid for anybody. That's been his position.
You know, most of us respect his positions. Not everyone agrees.
That's why all the spending goes up, up, up, and
you know, all the aid goes everywhere, and often with

(01:19:32):
very little accountability. So in Franquly sometimes two countries that
don't really need the aid, that have lower debt than
we do. So, you know, and with respect to the
Epstein files, I think, you know, Massy went hard after that.
I think as Trump was going hard at Massy, and
it kind of coincided with Trump once the big beautiful

(01:19:54):
bill passed. He kind of started talking about a couple
of things, like the Epstein list is a hoax. I mean,
I've pushed Jim Jordan, you know, the chairman of the
Judiciary Committee, like, we don't necessarily need to see the list.
Normally we find out about this stuff because evidence is
presented at a trial and the Attorney General, Pam Bondi
said that we're going to be trials. She gave binders

(01:20:15):
to journalists. I want Pam Bondi to come to Congress
and I want somebody to say, hey, explain yourself what
happened and where are the trials, because that's the fundamental issue.
People have asked me since I got elected. When is
somebody going to jail? And Congress doesn't have a prosecutor.
The Attorney General is supposed to prosecute criminals.

Speaker 1 (01:20:35):
That is correct, and with a thousand victims at least
that's been reported widely, is the one thousand victims of
the Estein Trafficking organization and operation. I mean, Massey pointed
out he wasn't just trafficking for himself. Obviously there were
others involved. And you'd like to think when you're talking
about minors being trafficked, that someone would be held accountable criminally.

Speaker 5 (01:20:55):
Yeah, I mean that should be unifying, and I think
it is. And I think you know, some of the
Trump administration is just and just a very odd disconnect.
I mean, I think, you know, President Trump's normally very
connected with issues that the base cares about, and it's
delusional to think that somehow people no longer care about
this issue. I will say, I've talked to desctituents who
feel exasperated, like there's no hope that anyone's ever going

(01:21:18):
to be held accountable, so they just move on and
look to other issues and they can see wins that
they care about. But you know, there should be accountability
no matter who's the guilty parties here. But somebody trafficked
to these young women, and Julane Maxwell's in jail for
the trafficking part. But they didn't traffic them. They weren't

(01:21:40):
trafficked to themselves. They were traffic to somebody on the
other side of that. And Frankly cash Bettel at hearings
before the Senate uh IS Senator Kennedy from Louisiana asked
him and he said, well, we don't have evidence of
them being trafficked to anyone else, and we'll really who

(01:22:01):
why is Jelane Maxwell.

Speaker 6 (01:22:02):
In jail with?

Speaker 1 (01:22:02):
Right?

Speaker 5 (01:22:03):
I mean, it's just mind blowing some of the answers
that are being given. Yeah, the normally the answer is
normally the answer is is, well, I can't come in
an ongoing investigation. But they give the idea that there
isn't even an ongoing investigation in thisministration, And yeah, that
is mind blown.

Speaker 1 (01:22:20):
It's mind blowing, and it deepens the mystery, and it
increases and feeds the adds fuel to the fire for
demands by the American people to get the documents out there.
Why are we getting all this mixed information? Why aren't
there in any prosecutions? You know, who are these wealthy,
well healed folks who are well connected with or who
were well connected with Jeffrey Epstein? And what were they
all about? I don't know. I just I The changing

(01:22:41):
direction by the Trump administration is really one of the
few criticisms I have up to date since he was
sworn in pivoting over. It looks like we're facing a
government shutdown. Apparently if there's no agreement reach, government's going
to shut down. At twelve oh one am October first,
Chuckie Schumer says that this new OMB memo which says
we're going to fire a bunch of federal workers if
we don't get a proposal reached. Says it's a threat.

(01:23:05):
Of course, it is an attempt at intimidation, is what
he referred to it as. But I found this fun
fact from the OMB to be particularly illustrative of maybe
a broader problem in government. OMB memo instructs its agencies
to design reduction of forced plans. If we shut down
for employees who work for programs that have no current

(01:23:26):
funding and have no outside funding source, and for which
there are no they're not consistent with the President's priorities.
You mean we're paying people. I don't understand how that
situation can even exist. Are there slots left open that
are going to be removed? Are people actually working in
areas where there's no funding of any type? This reporting
from the Wall Street Journal, I found it quite puzzling.

(01:23:47):
Congressman Davidson.

Speaker 5 (01:23:49):
Well, I didn't read the Wall Street Journal's report, but
I did read a statement from russ Vote, and I
think what he's meaning is is posed a shutdown like
once the funding expires, and certain programs would have no funding,
and you know, other programs are still funded, like the
military is still funded. We're not going to get rid
of the military, right but you know the prisons is

(01:24:12):
that the guards aren't going to stop showing up at
the prisons, right the prisons, So uh, air traffic controller
are still going to go to work. But you know
you've got certain agencies that aren't as high on that
priority list and don't have the same continuity of funding
in those areas. Well, then you know these aren't considered

(01:24:33):
you know, essential in a shutdown phase. Well, then which
positions can we eliminate? And you could see certain certain
roles that the administration would say, yeah, I'm not really
sure why Congress ever appropriated but exactly so, so okay,
if in the past they appropriated for it, but now
it's last we don't even think this should exist. So
here's an easy way to just say, great, we're just

(01:24:55):
going to reduce the force here and that that kind
of discretion comes to the president when you shut down.
Remember when Barack Obama decided to use the shut down
to spend money, frankly to put people out to block
Americans going to national parks. Yeah, so there is a
lot of latitude in terms of how you comply with
a shutdown. Uh, you know, Barack Obama thought that closing

(01:25:19):
down the National parks was the most essential way to
save money. I'm pretty sure the Trump administration will choose
different priorities, but they will find a way to save money.
And that gives a lot of latitude to us.

Speaker 1 (01:25:31):
Voted at OLM. Be Well and the idea, you know
that that these non essential services. And I don't want
to paint with too broad up a brush, but shouldn't
we you know, conceptually speaking as American tax fairers with
a thirty seven plus trillion dollar deficit and a trillion
plus dollars a year in interest service, shouldn't we never
fund services that are non essential? I mean, doesn't a point,

(01:25:54):
you know?

Speaker 5 (01:25:55):
And people are out there saying, oh, you know, there's
no consequences for the two trillion dollar death set every year,
two trillion, you know, six percent of our GDP. They're like,
how is there not massive inflation? You got six percent
of GDP getting poofed into the economy, you know as
death sits. Of course there's inflation. And you see the

(01:26:15):
evidence everywhere. And instead of saying, oh, you know, we
should we should turn something non essential off. There's like
this rush amongst immigrants. We need another one and a
half trillion dollars in spending, including restoring free health care
for illegals. Were we're going to shut the government down?
I mean, this is what they're fighting over, is these

(01:26:36):
COVID emergency funding, which the COVID emergency has long since expired.

Speaker 1 (01:26:42):
Yes, even in Washington, d C.

Speaker 5 (01:26:46):
And here we are fighting to keep the funding going
as if we're in the midst of a pandemic right now.

Speaker 1 (01:26:53):
Yeah, it's bizarre. I mean, the pandemic spending. What was
the largest spending bill ever pass in Congress was related
to the pandemic spending, and we saw all the fraud,
wasted abuse that went along with that, just just basically
throwing billions of dollars out into the world with no accountability.
So that's another failed government program. But the idea that
COVID's over and we still want to spend at that

(01:27:15):
level is absolutely insane. But that's exactly what Schumer and
the Democrats are pushing for. They're willing to shut the
government down unless we continue COVID level funding. Wow, it's
just crazy. I think they're going to own this one.
How do you feel about that one, Congressman Davidson, if
it does shut down?

Speaker 5 (01:27:31):
Yeah, I mean I assume there'll be you know, five
or six networks out there and the you know, controlled
media that'll be out there messaging for Chuck Schumer. But
the great thing is is the public is broken past
all that. They know the reality. I mean, look, Congress,
we passed in the House of bill a week or
so ago about funding that just look, there's no like

(01:27:51):
big Republican priorities. I mean, this is my frustration. Look,
I didn't run to be on the punt team. I mean,
we're supposed to be on offense right at that point,
you know, but we're just kicking in the can down
the road, not solving any of the problems, just status
quo level funding. I mean, this is the funding package
that Schumer when he was the Senate Majority leader last Congress,
and when Joe Biden or the autopen was running things

(01:28:15):
for the executive branch. This is that level of funding.
So yeah, okay, I know the all the ever one
is more. But it wasn't like, oh, this is some
radical overhaul of spending priorities that I'm pleading for, that
you're pleating for is yeah, let's turn some of this
stuff off. That's not what Chuck Schumer's rejecting he's rejecting
status quot funding, So I don't know how he doesn't own.

Speaker 1 (01:28:36):
It exactly, And I'm glad you're able to get that
all out. Congressman Davison will continue in a moment here

Speaker 13 (01:29:39):
This is fifty five krc AN iHeartRadio Station seven.

Speaker 1 (01:29:44):
Twenty fifty five KRCD Talk Station. Bryan Thomason, Congressman Warren Davidson.
There are some good ones in Congress. Congressman Davidson one
of them. And want to get your reaction to the
ramped up anger vitro. I think a lot of people
are connecting the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the most recent
illustration yesterday, the crazed Antifah leftist gunman who wanted to

(01:30:06):
kill Ice agents. We could go on a whole litany
and list of folks. The a couple of assassination attempts
on Donald Trump amid these swirling screams and crying of Democrats,
most notably yesterday with the Ice shooting. They call them
Nazis and masked thugs, and on and on and on
and on, drawing all these parallels to evil regimes like
the Nazi regime. They think, get Governor k Newsrom taking

(01:30:27):
a jab a go with Donald Trump, and this is
very concerning, considering two people try to assassinate him, at least,
he said, in terms of my work out there, what
I'm raising awareness on around how Donald Trump is trying
to rig the midterm elections, and how I fear that
we will not have an election in twenty twenty eight.
I really mean that, And at the core of my soul,

(01:30:49):
unless we wake up to the code read what's happening
in this country, and we wake up soberly, it's how
serious this moment is. He is telling the world that
Donald Trump is a threat to our public, and that's
he's just one of many Democrats who are going down
that road now, lacking a message regarding policy that resonates
with the American people. This is just sort of an

(01:31:11):
amorphous almost worse than the whole evil Orange man kind
of screaming and yelling. They were talking about him being
a racist, misogynist, blah blah blah blahl littany. That doesn't
work for them anymore. So now he's a threat to
the republic.

Speaker 5 (01:31:24):
Congressman Davidson, Yeah, I mean, it's it's the doubling down
on the same kind of rhetoric and you know, getting
getting the left wing base rallied back around the dehumanizing attacks.
You know, it brought up Kamala Harris to in my view,
helped illustrate why we didn't vote for Kamala Harris, but

(01:31:45):
also just to go out and say more bad things
about Donald Trump and how he's a threat to our
democracy and all this. And you know, they've rolled out
Hillary Clinton. You know, she's she's currently able to do
an interview now and she's up. They're in the wake
at Charlie Church's assassination saying the real threat to society

(01:32:05):
is you know, white Christian men, you know, white Christian men,
And yeah, I mean I see that that is a
concern for the Democrat base. They're rapidly losing white Christian men,
but they're losing everybody else too, and so you know,
the dehumanizing stuff goes on. And look, in the wake

(01:32:27):
of a lot of this political violence, Congress is actually
spending more money on security for members. And you know,
I will say, look that I don't know any member
that hasn't had death threats against them sells their family.
And I was an Army ranger. I never had a
personalized death threat until you know, I got elected to
this job, so kind of the dehumanizing rhetoric is is

(01:32:50):
is terrible. It's it's caused a lot of problems. And
look at the violence just goes on. And look at
jd Vance responding in the media. You know, well, how
dare you speculate about his motives? And like they wrote
the motives on the bullets, so like it's not confusing
here as to what was going on.

Speaker 1 (01:33:09):
Well, I'm chuckling over the idea that you're getting ready
to fund additional security for members of Congress and other
elected officials. Not that I don't understand the motivation behind that,
because obviously, in your capacity as an elected official, we
get a lot of death threats, and so to local
political candidates like Corey Bowman who's running for mayor, he
gets death threats all the time. Common problem. But are

(01:33:31):
members of Congress that are seeking this money for their
own personal security protection or any of them? Of the
defund the police ILK Because I have that, I have
a difficult time reconciling those concepts.

Speaker 5 (01:33:44):
Yeah, look, I mean maybe the most.

Speaker 1 (01:33:47):
Crazy crazy.

Speaker 5 (01:33:50):
Person on defund the police was Corey Bush, you know,
Ferguson Missouri, Saint Louis. Thankfully she's no longer in Congress.
Even Ferguson Missouri said, you know this lad, he might
just be a little too crazy. She was the one
that when they said defund the police, and they were
trying to tone it down, like, well, you know, we
don't mean literally defund the police, she goes to the
house floor and she is, yeah, that's exactly what we meant,

(01:34:13):
and we are going to defund the police. But part
of the corruption that she got is she was abusing
funds from her campaign, which is another source of security,
and she was paying her husband as a security guy,
you know, which was one of the ethical problems that
she was running to Lots of them, but yeah, hypocrisy

(01:34:33):
knows no bounds here. You know, if they were for
double standards, Democrats often wouldn't have them. But yeah, I
mean it, it's definitely plenty of hypocrisy on the security funding.

Speaker 1 (01:34:45):
There, and I think an insult to every person living
in a troubled crime laden city, including Cincinnatile some areas,
they are elected officials that are getting their own personal
policemen basically or police personnel on our money, and we
don't get a safe neighborhood, and we have politicians running

(01:35:07):
around trying to get rid of our police officers are
keeping us at lower contingents. It's insane. It's absolutely insane.
Congressman Warren Davidson. Always a pleasure having you on the show,
So I'll look forward to doing it again real soon.

Speaker 6 (01:35:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:35:17):
Likewise, Brian Gov. Let's you and all your.

Speaker 1 (01:35:19):
Listeners and you, sir. Seven twenty five fifty five k
C the talk station. We're gonna be hearing from author
coming to next, Daniel Flynn, the man who invented conservatism.
Interesting book about a guy that I never heard of,
and probably you haven't either. I think that was the
point of him writing it. First though, I want to
mention USA Insulation. Get in touch with USA Insulation right now.
Get them to come over to your place. They'll do

(01:35:39):
a free inspection and provide you with a free quote.
They figure out that you're under insulated or uninsulated. The
phone goes in the exterior walls, inject into tiny little
holes that they patch up so no one knows they
were there. You'll enjoy amediate improvement and comfort and energy
savings every single month. Still only ninety nine dollars a
month interest free. But right now they want you to
call them ear because wintertime the phone starts ringing off

(01:36:02):
the hook when the temperatures drop. It's like, oh my god,
I gotta get the insulation. And the duke bills are
going up more and more every day. So save probably
enough on your energy bill to cover the ninety nine
dollars a month interest free and a five hundred dollars discount.
That's an incentive from USA to get that phone ring
and now so they get ahead of the winter rush.
What's more, this is the last year you can enjoy
the tax credit, so if you want an additional twelve

(01:36:24):
hundred dollars UH when you're doing your taxes next year,
act this year. So huge incentive to get what you
should do under any circumstances. Five one three three eight

Speaker 1 (01:36:48):
Heay seven thirty here fifty five KRCD talk station. Very
Happy Thursday Slash Friday EU too. I'm happy to introduce
the fifty five KC Morning Show author Daniel Flynn. Uh.
He's also the senior editor of American Spectator Excellent. The
American Spectator, a visiting fellow the Hoover Institution, authored several books,
among them Blue Collar Intellectuals, When the Enlightened and the
Everyman Elevated America, A Conservative History of the American Left,

(01:37:11):
and Cult City Jim Jones, Harvey Milkin Ten Days That
Shook San Francisco. Yes, I would love to talk about
each and every one of those, but today welcome Daniel
Flynn to talk about your new book, The Man Who
Invented Conservatism, The Unlikely Life of Frank S. Meyer. Welcome
to the Morning Show, sir. It's a pleasure having you on.

Speaker 4 (01:37:28):
Hey, thank you for having me.

Speaker 1 (01:37:29):
And thanks for your work that you do with The
American Spectator. I appreciate that. Okay, let's get right out
of the right to the point. Who in the hell
is Frank Meyer?

Speaker 10 (01:37:38):
I'm going Meyer was?

Speaker 1 (01:37:40):
I was just gonna say, I just turned sixty. I've
been involved in politics my entire life. Reagan was the
first president I was able to vote for and campaigned for,
so I kind of go back. But there is a
connection with Frank Meyer. And Ronald Reagan apparently, So let's
talk about this.

Speaker 16 (01:37:55):
Yeah, certainly, I mean I was gonna say. When Meyer
was interviewed by Mike Wallace in nineteen sixty one, Wallace said, listen,
I would venture to guess that about maybe one of
a thousand of my viewers know who Frank Meyer is.
That you know, But I'm told that Barry Goldwater hangs
on your political advice, and William F. Buckley solicit you

(01:38:17):
for editorial advice.

Speaker 1 (01:38:19):
So who are you?

Speaker 16 (01:38:20):
And you know what I would venture to guess is
that in the year since nineteen sixty one, it's certainly
fewer than one in a thousand.

Speaker 10 (01:38:26):
But Meyer was.

Speaker 16 (01:38:27):
Someone who behind the scenes, these people like Goldwater William F.
Buckley were listening to. I think the interesting thing about him,
aside from his work in the conservative movement, this is
a guy who was a Stalinist communist who's called the
founder of the communist movement in Great Britain in I
five and six files that I have. At the same time,

(01:38:49):
he was in Great Britain calling for the violent overthrow
of the government of Ramsey McDonald, who was the Prime
minister over there. He was having a secret affair with
Ramsey McDonald's daughter. I have his youngest daughter. I have
the letters from her saying, hey, meet me at ten Downing.
My father's not home. Now the coast is clear. Come over,

(01:39:09):
we'll have dinner. So that's the kind of a brash
guy that he was.

Speaker 1 (01:39:13):
Absolutely was Daniel. Is this is happening while he is
embracing this communist philosophy.

Speaker 16 (01:39:22):
Yeah, he is the Johnny Appleseed of the Communist Party
in Great Britain, and unsurprisingly he is there's movement to
deport him from the country. He becomes a cause celeb
in Great Britain. Clement Atlee, you know, the future Prime Minister.
He gives a speech on the floor Parliament Bertrand Russell
the Philosopher signs a petition in his honor. There is
a guy named Michael Strait who was later the publisher

(01:39:43):
of the New Republic. He remembers marching around England's chanting
Free frank Meyer, Free frank Meyer. Meyer gets deported. He
later works for the guy who erected the Berlin Wall,
Walter Obrooks, who is the longest serving dictator of East Germany.
He gets disillusioned with communism, testifies in the longest most
expensive trial in US history, the smith Beck Trial sends

(01:40:05):
eleven of his former comrades to jail, and then in
nineteen fifty five, he's present at the creation of National View,
and that's kind of a new chapter in his life
where he's, you know, he goes from being the Johnny
apple Seed of communism in one country to be the
Johnny apple Seed of conservatism in this country.

Speaker 1 (01:40:22):
Okay, So was it that prosecution that like, so he
turned his back on they turned his back on his
own movement, or what was the how did you go
from communists to conservative philosopher? I mean, what was the
defining moment in his life? That's like leaving the Democrat
Party to become a Republican and that's no insignificant event,
But this seems to me even larger broader than that.

Speaker 16 (01:40:43):
Yeah, I think that's why one of the reasons people
are in the book. There's three reasons. One, he tried
to join the army and the communists wouldn't let him.
So during World War Two, he wanted to fight Hitler
because they were telling everyone go fight Hitler. He says,
I want to fight Hitler. He said, no, don't do it.
So when he finally joined, he met for the first
time in his life plumbers and brick layers and assembly
line workers, and these were not the proletariat that Marx

(01:41:05):
had told him about.

Speaker 7 (01:41:07):
Right later, he reads.

Speaker 16 (01:41:10):
A book called The Road to Serve Him and he
gives a review of it in the communist publication. Is
maybe the first time ever in any communist publication that
a free market thinker like Frieder Kayak gets a respectful,
fair review. Ostensibly this is a review of the Road
to Serve Him. Really, what it is is a guy
cracking up. Basically, a guy looking at the fourteen years

(01:41:30):
of his political commitments and saying.

Speaker 4 (01:41:32):
Gee, it was all a lie.

Speaker 16 (01:41:34):
And then you have something, you know the He realized
that communists were sort of going in a Bellicoast direction
after the Second World War. He thought that was crazy
to have a Cold War because they just had this
war that killed fifty million people worldwide. Why a you're
you gonna have more conflict? And he leaves the Communist Party,
has about a five year retreat and re emerges as
a conservative.

Speaker 1 (01:41:55):
How about that, Well, there's hope for all the leftists
out there in the world. Perhaps we can pray for that,
and that's one of the reasons I guess you wrote
the book The Man Who Invented Conservatism, The Unlikely Life
of Frank s. Meyer. Now we also are introduced, and
I am sorry I have to admit to this. Perhaps
like only one in a thousand or maybe even fewer
know who Frank s. Meyer was. But Fusionism, Yeah, Fusionism.

Speaker 16 (01:42:18):
So you know, Fusianism was so popular, it was so
influential that most of the people who adopted it as
sort of the default philosophy of the American right, they
never even heard the term fusions and they never heard
of Frank Meyer, but that was the default philosophy, from
say Barry Goldwater all through Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan was
sort of the embodiment of frank Meyer's dreams, and in

(01:42:41):
nineteen sixty he predicted Reagan as president. He told Nation Review,
we should never, under any circumstances endorse this guy, this
opportunist Richard Nixon. We may have to wait twenty years
to elect one of our own. And that's of course
what happened. Fusiasm essentially is the marriage of two seemingly
desperate ideas, traditionalism and libertarianism. So you have the freedom,

(01:43:04):
and you also have the sort of the virtue, the
sort of the religious concerns the traditionalists.

Speaker 1 (01:43:10):
On the other side.

Speaker 16 (01:43:11):
What Meyer said was that these two ideas weren't in conflict,
they were in cooperation. They are that you take away
all this tradition of Western civilization, you take away our heritage.
Then you know the freedom that rests upon that is
going to disappear too. You take away freedom, and you
have compulsory virtue, which isn't virtue at all, which is
sort of wrote virtue. And so Meyer thought those two

(01:43:33):
things went together, and a lot of Americans believe that.
And it worked because it was true. It worked because
it was simple. But I think most importantly, it worked
because it had political utility in a way a lot
of the other conservative philosophies didn't. In other words, it
brought these two different groups together and said, you know,
we've got to work together. They did, and it seemed

(01:43:54):
to work for you know, over the course of thirty
forty years.

Speaker 1 (01:43:57):
Well, and that's pretty much some me up, sir. I
am a traditional conservative, but I also I am quite
the I always refer to myself as a little l
libertarian as opposed to the Capital L Party libertarian. I
disagree with some of the tenets of the Capital L,
but I'm a freedom loving guy, and I understand this
country is the only country we truly enjoy the freedoms
and liberties that nobody else in the world enjoys. So

(01:44:18):
I'm happy to play with others nicely in the tent
and can accept them for who they are. But certainly
traditional conservatism involving moral and social order that is extremely important.
We see what's happening with the lack of moral and
social disorder in this country. But also fusionism also included
an element of anti communism, did it not, Well.

Speaker 16 (01:44:38):
Yeah, I mean Frank was anti communist par excellence. I
mean he was a guy that went in and joined
the Communist Party with a guy named Prince Murski, who
a few years later winds up in a gulag Frank
has you know, his protege is Charles Darwin's great grandson.
A few years later he's dead in the Spanish Civil War.
He worked for, as I said earlier, Walter Ulbrooks, who

(01:44:59):
was the longest serving dictator of East Germany and who
erects the Berlin Wall. Later they worked on peace activism
together at a time when Oubrits had already ordered murders. So,
in other words, Frank had seen the very ugly side
of communism and he wanted to stop it.

Speaker 1 (01:45:17):
Quick question for you today, Daniel Flynn, author of this book,
this great book, the man who had been in Conservatives.
I've always observed and at least set out loud, the
fall of the Soviet Union, while a victory for United
States and democracy generally, however you want to characterize it,
is the moment in time when the United States lost
its bearing. We had this moral compass. It was always
the Soviet Union, you know, the breadlines, the misery the

(01:45:38):
folks lived in, the lack of freedoms and liberties, the
stark contrast what we had here we no longer have.
That we ignored China and its abuses. It was not
even a traditionally communist country, I guess, nor was Soviet Union.
But without that constant, you know, Cold War drumbeat of
look at how bad it is under that system of
government compared to ours, it kind of felt better about

(01:46:00):
our system, in spite of the fact that it comes
with some flaws. Disappearing in the Soviet Union. I think
we no longer have that. Young people aren't taught about
the ills and the evils of communism and living under
that that that system of government. So now it's become
in vogue almost these days.

Speaker 16 (01:46:17):
Yes, strangely, I mean that was the unifying force for
the American right when it was gone. The right corner
sort of like a top that sort of spins a real,
you know, undisciplined direction. That's that's what happened to the
American right. I think the other thing that happened is
exactly what you said that you know, for all those years,
we're reminded about how evil socialism was, and once the

(01:46:39):
Soviet Union fell, a new generation of people quit, you know,
quickly forgot about how evil was. And I you know,
I look at Poles. I think probably communism is more
popular here than it is in Russia, and that if
you told someone that in nineteen eighty nine, that that's
what the future would be like, they would laugh at you.

Speaker 1 (01:46:56):
Just like they would laugh out any politician who actually
proudly hugging the monarch her socialist on their political leanings.
You know that you didn't say that out loud back
in the day, in spite of the fact that may
have been how you actually perceived politics. Great conversation the
Man who invented Conservatism The Unlikely Life of Frank S.
Meyer by my guest today, Daniel Flynn. Thank you so

time between the top of the hour and of course
Jay Ratliffe showing up at a thirty for the I
heard me the aviation Extra report. First though, let me
mention my friends at Gate of Heaven Cemetery. You know
these troubled times. It's an ideal thing to maybe reflect
and think about the beauty and the awesome reality of life,

(01:47:59):
life from earth to death and everything between. The sanctity
of life is really truly what is embraced at Gate
of Heaven Catholic Cemetery. They've been serving the sins at
Christian community for about seventy seven years and they invite
you to enjoy the peaceful, beautiful, maintain grounds of the cemetery.
It's tranquiled landscape surroundings which are ideal for prayer, reflection, remembrance,

(01:48:20):
honoring life through its milestones, every milestone, and then reflect. Also,
I think it's important on the brevity of life because
it might make you appreciate the moment you're living right now.
That's what it's all about. To learn more about the
pre planning options, service, details upcoming events, and maybe more

between now and the bottom of the hour with Jay Ratliffe.
In the following hour eight thirty with Jay Every Thursday,
I heard e the eightation expert. In the meantime for
the phones I go. I got a couple of callers online.
We'll begin in the order in which they will received,
meaning Mississippi, James is up, James. Always good to hear
from you.

Speaker 6 (01:50:04):
Hey, doctor Brian, come in peace, love everybody, and there's
nothing you can.

Speaker 1 (01:50:09):
Do about it. Spread the message, all right.

Speaker 6 (01:50:11):
I just call in to say I'm rawly confused, you know,
I'm confused about what's going on you two. And the
pendulum is swinging so fast, you know, and both sides
are using the same piece information as they proof while
they're right. Yeah, you know, we'll right because it is

(01:50:32):
we'll right. Because of that, it's swinging so fast. So
I say, with me with the thirty three percent in
the middle, thirty three on the third in the middle,
and you look at the thirty three on third on
the left and the right, and they're swinging so fast, buddy.
So I'm rawly confused. As the word of truth lies

(01:50:54):
right now, but it eventually revealed itself.

Speaker 1 (01:50:58):
Sometimes you have to wait for it.

Speaker 6 (01:51:01):
Yeah, And the truth is always in the balance. It's
in the balance, act yep.

Speaker 1 (01:51:09):
In this immediate gratification world we live in, where you know,
we immediately get whatever movie we want, we immediately get
whatever food we want, We immediately get everything. We can't
wait for anything. That's when people start drawing their own
conclusions before they have all the information. You know, Jimmy
Kimble got in trouble with it saying that the murderer
of Charlie Kirk was some right wing extremists, one of
the MAGA folks. That was not even close to accurate. Now,

(01:51:32):
before we had information on who that guy was and
what his political leanings are, we speculate could have been
a right wing fanatic, could have been a left wing fanatic.
Could have just been some guy who completely lost his
marbles and randomly chose that event to shoot someone. We
don't know. But when he said that statement, we already
had the information out that he was an anti Charlie
Kirk kind of guy. He's a left winger and nutcase.

(01:51:53):
So but you waited for it. We haven't gotten the
Epstein documents. We're all wildly speculated about what the hell
could possibly be in those. Most of the American people
want those. We don't know what's in them, do we.
People are starting to draw their own conclusions. You know,
I like to wait to see what happens. The meantime,
it's okay to speculate. You can ponder, but the pondering

(01:52:13):
in the speculation, at least in a situation like, for example,
the Epstein files, will more likely lead you to discovering
the truth because our elected officials have to capitulate to
the ongoing demands in the American public to know what
the truth is. And the worst part about it is,
we wait, we wait, we wait, and we find out
that what we've been told over and over and over

(01:52:35):
again by the media or whoever's supposed to responsibly report
on these things. You know what, after four years and
multiple investigations and impeachment teerings, it turns out, you know what,
Donald Trump isn't an agent of Russia. Hunter Biden's laptop
was Hunter Biden's. I mean, the masks don't work. How

(01:52:56):
many years did it take for that information to get out.
We just keep getting lied to a lot, and it
fosters and encourages the frenzy of what I will maybe
call conspiracy theories, speculation, and of course, to your point
in Mississippi, James, the division that goes along with that. Bobby,

and we hear from George Brennan and Keith Tennfield in studio.
I wonder if they're gonna bring up T Town and all.
They're the Restore Wellness team and they do great, great
work trying to help us get motivated toward a better
path in terms of health. And I've listened to what

(01:54:16):
George and Keith had to say over the past well
about a year or so, we've had them on with
Restore Wellness. George Brenhaman is the Restored Liberty do US guy,
a US guy as well, but puts his his health

(01:54:38):

my dear friend, Patty Scott from Heart for Seniors, she'll
be back back in the studio talking about all the
wonderful things they're doing for seniors who are in assisted
living facilities not exactly an idyllic lifestyle there. And of
course she and a Hertford Seniors came up with this
wonderful technological solution to deal with, yes, changing the garments

(01:55:02):
when people have accidents. Incontinence is a huge problem for
UH for seniors, and when they're laying there and there's
not enough staff to regularly check on them or check
on them at the right time, the software alerts the
staff the need for a change that way, it gets
taken enough quickly, no wallowing in your own felf and
of course avoiding all the medical complications and everything else

(01:55:25):
that goes along with that just one of the things
that hard for seniors does. I just love having them
on because they have so many beautiful success stories that
will be tomorrow on the lineup without further ado five one, three, seven, four, nine,
fifty five, eight hundred and eight two three talk Top
five fifty on AT and T phones. Bobby, thanks for
holding over the break there.

Speaker 18 (01:55:41):
Welcome back, my friend, Hey Brian, happy Thurdy too. If faith,
flag and family and we know what else takes care
of the first and the third minute to the constitutions, Yes,
there we go. I've got one thing if they don't
want to talk about again, and you ask to come
from the FBI and the Department Justice. These perpetrators that

(01:56:02):
are doing these shootings, they've already categorized that psychological profiles
and they're all consistent knee holistic violent extremism. If you
look under the Department of Justice Center MVE, it will
explain all of them. But the problem is they can't
control it. That's one reason why they're not discussing it.

Speaker 1 (01:56:26):
Well, let me just think about that for a second.
They can't be controlled, correct, They're out there in the world.
Crazy people have always existed. We don't have mental health
facilities where we sort of, you know, involuntarily lock them up.
We have crazy people in the world. That's always the case, right, Bobby. Now,
crazy people are surrounding themselves with their own hand selected

(01:56:48):
social media quite often involving a violent anti society message.
If I can be loose with my broad termination there
and then they live and wallow in their own ideological message,
and they get support from people who can very well
prompt them to do evil things, or maybe they'll come
up with an idea to do an evil thing for themselves.
You can't get ahead of that, cany Bobby. All the

(01:57:08):
NSA capturing of data and information cannot reveal to anyone
who the one is that's going to pull the trigger, right.

Speaker 7 (01:57:16):
You cannot.

Speaker 1 (01:57:16):
You can't get ahead of it.

Speaker 7 (01:57:18):
All you can do is critique it after the fact.

Speaker 10 (01:57:20):
Right now.

Speaker 7 (01:57:20):
The only way.

Speaker 18 (01:57:21):
To stop it or curtail it is if family members
or friends go ahead and finger the guy. Right, that
just has to be it. Because they live in isolation
and they live to the point where they don't want
to accept the truth about people that are close to them.
But these individuals, these perpetrators, is what they're consistent among

(01:57:42):
all of them, and the common threads alienation, despair, and
you can't stop them because nobody knows who they are.
The majority of them have never been arrested or in
troubled before, right, They just their membly ill.

Speaker 1 (01:57:55):
Yeah. I think it was Corey Bowman to mention this too,
because you know, I've gotten death threats before, but it's
you don't worry about the death threat you actually receive
that people actually send to you that might even be traceable.
The ones you worry about are the ones you don't
hear about. That's the point Bobby's making here. Off the radar,
they may be quiet, they may not even engage. Think

(01:58:16):
about this, Bobby, you can absorb this vile content and
this maybe erroneous political message and get you know, brainwashed
into believing it and not even communicate with someone who's
issuing that type of message. Just reading it, you don't
leave a digital footprint, so.

Speaker 7 (01:58:34):
Individuals are groomable.

Speaker 6 (01:58:36):
I guess that's a good way to put it.

Speaker 1 (01:58:37):
Yeah, Well, considering marketing and money and politics. And I
mentioned this this concept last night at the Massy event
with Senator Rampaul and Congress from Massy about the money
that's being thrown to wage a war against Congress from
Thomas Massey by these multi billionaires in connection with the

(01:58:59):
Epstein document push I said out loud yesterday, isn't it
a crazy world we live in where money can actually
translate into results when it comes to political philosophy. Mirror
messaging can influence the hearts and minds of people. It's
not critical thinking they're offering. It's a label they're placing

(01:59:20):
on something money buys. The ad campaign Thomas Massey evil
mister no did this characterizing in any way they can.
If someone knew Thomas Massey's record and they watched that commercial,
I think the obvious result of the logical result would
be to bust out into laughter. I know Congress from Massey,
I know is voting record. He's not a liberal guy.

(01:59:41):
I know the reasons for the reason why he voted
no on whatever's being illustrated by the ad campaign. That
requires basic general knowledge to counter the message being given you.
But the fact that that message gets through and will
resonate with people in spite of the fact that his
most lying, live filled type message out there the power
money influence messaging and for the soft minded out there

(02:00:05):
that can't go through it in the logical, reasonable thought
process and you know, submit it to the test of
maybe asking questions, engaging in a debate on any given topic.
You know, like maybe Charlie Kirk did. Yeah, that's the
world we live in. A lot of people out there
that don't dwell on the weeds that could easily be

(02:00:27):
messaged into believing something, or in the case of some
of these murderous thugs living in the basement, getting message
into the point where they turn into a murderous thug.
And you're right, Bobby. The solution is anybody who is
next to anyone needs to keep their eyes focused on
that loved one, that person you're familiar with, that friend.
We are our brother's keeper. You owe it to your friend, yourself,

(02:00:48):
your friends, your loved ones, and to that person that
you're not talking with that you say, you know what,
he didn't used to act that way. He's kind of
withdrawn from society. He's uttered some interesting, sort of arguably
bizarre comments about politics or individuals and politics generally speaking,
red flags, Maybe engage them. Maybe you're the last line

(02:01:12):
of defense in the crazy world like this, you know,
going to the point. We've heard it time and time
again from judging the Polotono and others. They gather up
all of our communications nssays, absorbing it all the time,
trillions of data bytes and points and messages and social
media posts and all that. It's all out there. Even

(02:01:32):
artificial intelligence akpara can't sift through it all and figure
out which guy is the one that's going to pull
the trigger, But it is good and helpful after the fact,
when you're trying to catch the bad guy who might
have gotten away and didn't kill himself. And hate have
to acknowledge that though, because don't you feel helpless to

(02:01:56):
a certain extent that you don't don't know who these
crazy people are and you don't know at the moment
of time, and it's going to happen again. Yeah, I
don't know. I wish there was an easy solution to
these broader problems. But certainly our elected officials owe us
better in terms of how they characterize things, how they

(02:02:18):
frame who their opponents are, and what they're all about No,
Donald Trump is not a Nazi, for God's sake, but
you keep saying it, and you have been saying it
for such a long time. And there's a lot of
elected officials out there that like to refer to Donald
Trump as fascists. And I don't need to go back
over the reality of what the definition of fascism is

(02:02:40):
and who the real party of fascism is. Consider who
is trying to control every component of your life. That's
what fascists do. That's not what free loving people do.
But they'll screen that out loud. And for an idiot
who believes it on its face Donald Trump fascist and
doesn't bother to put that label to the test logically,

(02:03:03):
reasonably and from a critical thinking standpoint, may very well
be the person who tries to kill Donald Trump. Oh look,
it's happened already twice. Coming up in eight fifteen fifty

Fifty five krc.

Speaker 1 (02:04:25):
Hey twenty fifty five KRCD talk station. Looking forward to
the next segment, as I always do every week, Thursday.
I heard me the aviation expert Jay Ratlift every Thursday
at eight thirty. A good list of topics too. It's
always fun talking with Jay about aviation issues and usually
reconfirming my disdain for air travel. Let's see what Steve's
got this morning. Hey Steve, welcome to the Morning Show.

(02:04:45):
Thanks for calling.

Speaker 17 (02:04:47):
Yes, sir, i haven't talked to you in a few weeks.
I'm going to echo what you just said with Jay Ratlift.
That's one of my favorite segments in the week. I'm
really really enjoy it. It's Everything's Relay did, but it's
very diverse the different airline issues, and there's a lot
of humor in that too. But it is enjoyable.

Speaker 1 (02:05:07):
But it's, you know why it's so enjoyable for me,
not just because I love I love Jay Relif. He's
fun to talk to. The stories are always interesting on
some level. It's a nice, you know, relevant topic subject matter.
But it's a great diversion from, of course, everything else
we talk about here in the fifty five years Mark show,
which is focused on politics and craziness of late.

Speaker 17 (02:05:28):
I'm going to keep it away from the politics until
my last comment, but I'll just I'll just dip my
toe into the water with the politics. But I know
you got Jim and Jacks on the river coming up?
Where where is where exactly is that? I could look
it up? But why not call you that way?

Speaker 10 (02:05:46):
You make the announcement on River.

Speaker 1 (02:05:48):
Road fifty Let me see, I can pull it up
real quick here, give you the exact address. Go ahead
and go finish your thoughts or okay, so.

Speaker 17 (02:05:54):
That'd be like west of the city then oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, okay, okay,
I might do that. I'd live in Independence. I'm you know,
thirty fourth. When I went to.

Speaker 1 (02:06:03):
Thirty four fifty six River Road, thirty four to fifty
six River, I knew it was three thousand block, but yeah,
really easy to get to.

Speaker 17 (02:06:10):
Well if I if I go, you know, i'd really
like to meet Christopher Smitherman. He is a true gentleman.
Just his voice on genuine cares, I mean, makes me
wish I lived on that side of the river so
I could vote for him. But what what a great guy.
I mean, I love listening to him too. That's another
highlight of You've got a lot of highlights in the
week that I.

Speaker 8 (02:06:31):
Look forward to.

Speaker 1 (02:06:32):
I'm blessed things.

Speaker 17 (02:06:33):
Yeah, one of the things you talk and I am simp.
Welcome to the sixty club. I'm sixty three, so think,
but I'm semi retired. I work three days a week
so and and I do delivery work on my workdays.
So I listened to the radio what I can't call
in but Monday. I you, this was funny because I

(02:06:54):
was with you. My my my jaw dropped open adult children,
maybe in their thirties forty fifties, trying to get their
inheritance from their parents. Yeah, while their parents were still living.
And I just pictured and you would never have done it.
But I pictured a twenty something Brian Thomas approaching mister

(02:07:15):
Jerry Thomas, and I don't think I would have ever
heard of you.

Speaker 2 (02:07:18):
Then.

Speaker 17 (02:07:18):
I think Dad would could have put an end to
that real quick.

Speaker 1 (02:07:22):
People who knew my dad know my my repetition of
his one of his favorite quotes, I got two I
got two words for you, and they ain't happy birthday.
And trust me, Dad wouldn't even bother with the intro
on that. He would have given me the two words
straight through. Get a job, follow I get a job?

Speaker 17 (02:07:39):
Yeah, okay, And I guess I'll let it go with that.
I will say I have always voted for Massi. I've
sent him money, and I've talked to you about him before.
The only you know, and I see what they're trying
to do to him, and I do like him very much.
The you know, and I've told you this before. He's
in a group of four hundred and thirty five and
you know, you're you are in a legislative body, and sometimes,

(02:08:03):
you know, I know he's a man of principle, but
sometimes you got to play the game because you are
in a circus. And you know. But one of his
problems he might have with people like me who have
always voted for him and will continue it. I go
to I vote in primaries, which is a lot of
times more important. One of the problems is as much

(02:08:26):
as I love him having him as my representative, I
think a lot of people that vote for Thomas Massey
love having Donald Trump as their president just a little
bit more. Well, we'll just leave it at that.

Speaker 1 (02:08:38):
Yeah, they're not a reconcilable concepts. I mean, you know,
the Donald Trump and Congressman MASSI. You are a hell
of a lot closer politically than like many people within
the Republican party. We talk about this all the time.
You know, what does it mean to declare yourself a Republican?
Are you a Neo Khan? Are you a warmonger type Republican?
Are you a tea party type Republican like me, little

(02:09:00):
libertarian like for example, living a government fiscal responsibility for
free markets. Are you one of those opportunist Republicans who
you know, like Larry household Er and those other clowns
that voted money into their pockets in order to and
to facilitate legislative business and that kind of thing. I mean,
there's a huge swath much like there's a huge swath
of Democrats. What does it mean to be a Democrat?

(02:09:20):
I don't know, you're a communist Democrat? There's a ton
of those. Now are you a John F. Kennedy Democrat?
And Kennedy most notably, would be a more conservative Republican
given the political dynamics that have shifted over the years. So,
you know, don't throw out the good or in the
case of Congressman Thomas Massey, the great in search of

(02:09:41):
the perfect, but at least the problems you have with Massey,
he provides that wonderful, much needed foil to the uniparty
that were typically faced with. By the way, folks, that's
Congressman Massey metaphorically, here's the Constitution, and I'm troubled to
find out where in the hell you get the authority

(02:10:02):
to do this that the other thing, pay for something
and true to our lives. Whatever happens to be constitutionally based.
In other words, looks if it violates the Constitution or
sends us further into debt. Republicans, Democrats, independence, whoever the
hell you are, don't bother putting it in a piece
of paper you call legislation because you know the answer
to the question when you ask me if I'm going

(02:10:23):
to vote for it. No, we all know that ahead
of time. That's why we're happy Congressmans is there. He
forces people to have to speak and engage and debate
on critical matters to our country's existence, the constitutional structure,
the supreme law of the land, and the one that's
supposed us to protect us from government. A twenty six

Speaker 1 (02:11:40):
Hawk, a thirty two fifty five KRCD talk station. A
very happy Thursday. Always happy at this moment in time
because we could hear from my heart meaty aviation expert
Jay Rat, Welcome back to the show, Jay, my dear friend.
It's great having you on today.

Speaker 7 (02:11:53):
Ah, it's a pleasure to be back, my friend.

Speaker 1 (02:11:56):
People with laser pointers again, when are they gonna larn?

Speaker 7 (02:12:00):
What's happened? In Los Angeles. There's a guy that's walking
down the street, no shirt, kind of talking to himself,
acting in a little bit of radic There's a law
enforcement officer on the other side of the street, gets
his flashlight kind of flashes that had him to get
his attention at night, and this guy pulls out one
of those high powered lasers that you know people pointed
aircraft and stuff like that that we've talked about, and
he points it back at the officer, kind of hits

(02:12:22):
him in the chest type of thing. And these things
can put your eyes out as if you're not careful. Well,
there's a helicopter flying over and I guess he's going
to try to distract the officer by shining this high
powered handheld laser. It's the helicopter going by. Happened to
be Marine one.

Speaker 13 (02:12:38):
Oh no, you about having a bad day.

Speaker 7 (02:12:42):
Yeah, you're about to have a bad day. Within seconds,
this guy is tackled by a number of Secret Service
agents telling him what he did. This guy's apologizing like
he's a Trump voter. He goes, Hi, I'm so sorry.
It's not gonna help, brother, You're in trouble and alf
they took him. So, you know, if you've got that
segment of you know you're having a bad day, win, Yes,

(02:13:02):
this would certainly fit that well.

Speaker 1 (02:13:04):
The idea to put a laser point out when he
was been confronted by law enforcement. Hell, law enforcement officer
might have thought that that was a laser an amounted firearm.

Speaker 7 (02:13:12):
Absolutely, you guys lucky to be alive, and yeah, you
can have a lot of time to think about it. Normally,
you can't catch the individuals that point these high powered
lasers that can temporarily blind a flight crew at a
critical moment of flight. We talk about that all the time.
How even pilots have lost vision because of these attacks
and why people want to point him at aircraft I'll

(02:13:33):
never understand. But the crew is not in a position
to inform air traffic control that can inform law enforcement
where these idiots are at So most of the time
it takes somebody on the ground seeing it happen that
can call law enforcement and say, hey, this person's doing
this before they get caught. So the vast majority of
these people never ever, you know, pay for their consequences.

(02:13:55):
This guy just pointed at the wrong aircraft, and you
talk about a story that they're going to enjoy him prison,
that's going.

Speaker 1 (02:14:01):
To be it. Are you the guy that ye word
idiots doing idiot things because they're idiots said.

Speaker 7 (02:14:08):
That would be the top of my list this week.

Speaker 1 (02:14:10):
Brother, I'm telling you cosmic crapshoot of life, bad day
with a question. Think about it, what is the likelihood
that you're ever even going to see in your lifetime
that helicopter fly overhead?

Speaker 6 (02:14:22):
You know?

Speaker 7 (02:14:23):
Yeah, and the prison just happened to be a board
marine one and US dapt it. So yeah, people are
going to kind.

Speaker 1 (02:14:29):
Of notice that. That's awesome. Le's stick around more with
Jay Ratliffe. First, I'm gonna mention again for this morning
Gate of Heaven Cemetery. You know, we could all use
a trankful, peaceful, relaxing, gorgeous environment to reflect on the
beauty of life. And that's why Gate of Heaven Cemetery
is there. This is Cincinnti christ serving the Sinsini Christian
community for like seventy seven years. The idea is to
honor life. That's the goal there, honoring life on sacred ground.

(02:14:51):
Contemplate the brevity of life. I can do that at
a cemetery, that's for sure. But think about birth, think
about life's milestones and then of course passing on to
eternal life. This I think grounds you in your day
to day life. So pray, reflect, meditate. It's a gorgeous
spot to do that, and they invite you to do so.
So if you visit Gate of Heaven dot org you

(02:15:13):
can learn more. You can explore the pre planning options
they have service details and as well as upcoming events,
or simply to learn more about the mission and values
that make Gate of Heaven a sacred part of our
community again, seventy seven years.

Speaker 3 (02:15:26):
Gate of Heaven dot org fifty five KRC.

Speaker 13 (02:15:30):
More than a few of our patients have talked to me.

Speaker 1 (02:15:32):
Have you ever been in the cockpit before? Jay Ratliff
has these iHeartMedia aviation expert and we're gonna move on.
Apparently you found a friend in the Senate, Jay Ratliffe, Well,
if we.

Speaker 7 (02:15:45):
Can call Democrat Senator Richard Blumenthal friend, Well, I will this.
You asked you one of the instance, even the stop clock. Yes,
but he came out saying that this three point one
million dollar fine that Boeing was hit with, we talked

(02:16:05):
about it. It's to find the Federal Aviation Administration imposed
on Boeing for the Alaska Airlines door plug incident. A
lot of safety violations that occurred. Boeing knowingly allowed this
stuff to happen. They're hit with this three point one
million dollar fine, which you know I'd been talking about,
was disappointing to me, and the senators coming out saying,

(02:16:26):
wait a minute, and unless the penalties rise, as he says,
to the level that forces the company to in essence change,
the risk of the flying public is going to maintain
or persist. And certainly that's the case. And I called
the three point one million dollar fine lunch money for Boeing.
And it's really unfortunate that again a company that has

(02:16:47):
admitted five years back until just recently that yes, we
knew we were doing things wrong, and at one time
they admitted criminal misconduct. They're allowed to continue to kind
of do that. I'm sorry, a three million dollar fine
on a multi billion dollar company is not going to
be something that's going to cause them in the boardroom
to sit up and go, oh my gosh, we've got

(02:17:08):
a change note. And I'm sure that even though I've
not read this, that there's something in there that the
FAA is put in saying if there's future violations, you know,
we might find you more. And I'd be like, what
six million. It's just ridiculous that Boeing far too often
seems to have a lot more control over what happens
to them than other companies. And I'm sure a lot
of it has to do with, you know, jay speculation

(02:17:30):
here the government defensive contracts that they have.

Speaker 1 (02:17:33):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm with I'm not going to say
you're speculating, jay on. They have some power control because
we're beholden to them for so much of our military hardware.

Speaker 17 (02:17:42):
We are.

Speaker 7 (02:17:42):
And it's just, you know, when I think how close
we came to somebody dying in that Alaska a situation
where that door plug fell off, he had the massive
immediate decompression that was so severe that yes, it ripped
a teenager's shirt off. This guy's sitting there and boom
off his shirt and go out the door or the
whole of the aircraft. As this air is rushing out,

(02:18:04):
you have the secured cockpit door that nobody can get
through that is blown open because of that pressure change.
It's obvious. I mean, you couldn't even talk to the
person next to you without texting so they could read.
It was so loud. And the idea that nobody on
a packed airplane was sitting in a window seat, you
got to be kidding me. Every packed airplane has a

(02:18:26):
window seat with somebody sitting in it, if nothing else,
just to kind of get out of the way that
seat no one was there. Had it been, I'm sure
that person would have been sucked out the door. So
it's just it's amazing that not only Boeing five years
ago had the two Boeing Max crashes that killed more
than three hundred and forty people because of things they
intentionally did and withheld from the FAA, from pilots and

(02:18:49):
from airlines. It's the same stuff, and that's why when
I'm asked today JD believe Boeing's words of promise, I'm
like absolutely not. I was an idiot to do it
five years ago, and they proved to me that they
weren't really interested in changing. Now, hopefully they've turned that corner,
and I'll tell you in five years what I think.
But right now I do not trust Boeing to do

(02:19:09):
the right thing.

Speaker 1 (02:19:10):
I just they got so damn lucky that no one
was there. It's just when they described that situation, the
fact that it was a pack plane and the horrific
violent reaction of that immediate depressurization, I had, somewhere along
the lines either forgotten or overlooked the fact that the
cockpit door flew open. I did not know that that
would happen. So that's and you know.

Speaker 7 (02:19:32):
All the things in the cockpit that were not tied down.
You had flight man, it was at a bunch of
different paper, and I mean it goes up flying. It's
kind of in the way of the crew, and they
don't know if there was a bomb that went off.
I mean, you're on the flight deck and all of
a sudden you have that immediate you're immediately thinking something's
blown up somewhere, and do we have the ability to
land this crippled aircraft? And try to save the lives

(02:19:55):
of those that remain on board. You don't know how
many people just died in the back. You get all
all of this uncertainty that's ongoing, and the crew did
a great job of getting that airplane on the ground.
They couldn't communicate with any of their flight attendants because
of the noise as far as what was ongoing. They're
dotting oxygen mask and they're going through their emergency procedures.
It was horrific and I'm sure the PTSD for the

(02:20:17):
people on that plane is going to be something that's
gonna be with them for the rest of their lives.
Why because Boeing allowed some safety issues that they knew
were going on to continue. And why because, for their
own admission, when it was a criminal investigation, they allowed
the airplanes to be rushed through production to try to
get them out the door. And Brian, when you're talking

(02:20:38):
about Boeing, who used to set the standard for safety,
is telling their employees were out of parts for this
specific part of the aircraft. Go to the rejected part, Ben,
find the best failed part, and let's put it on
this aircraft so we can keep it going through the
production line. That's stupid. But it happened over and over

(02:20:59):
and over again, to the point you had dozens of
employees coming forward saying, look, I don't want to be
a part of the next disaster. Right, this is happening
and it needs to stop.

Speaker 1 (02:21:09):
Well, I don't want to be part of the next
disaster either, Jay. So, with a little bit of reluctance
to even ask the question, did they go back and
go over all of those airplanes that they previously put
together to find out they're going to be failed parts
put in them?

Speaker 7 (02:21:22):
I would love to say yes, and then I would
love to say Boeing said yes, And then I would
say I'd love to say Boeing was correct when they
said yes. I wouldn't. I don't believe a word that
comes out of their mouth. So if they said yes,
you know, every single part has a part number to it,
so the FAA could look and see if they knew
which ones. But you know, they went back and looked,
like for the training logs and the different things for

(02:21:45):
the door plug, to see exactly you know, who was
in charge, who was overseeing those kinds of things. And Brian,
would you believe that stuff disappeared? Oh? My god. Oh no,
they can't find it. Oh just that's the that's what
adds it even further increases my blood pressure because of
the arrogance of somebody saying, well, we'll just get rid
of the evidence and it won't be an issue. And yeah,

(02:22:07):
they pay three million dollars, Fine, whooah, that'll share change
their behavior.

Speaker 1 (02:22:12):
Did they look at the sub basement storage room for
burn bag documents?

Speaker 7 (02:22:16):
It's just absolute nuts. But it continues to happen. And
it's only by the grace of God something hasn't happened.
And you have Boeing employees. And I'm not among this
group that will not get on their own airplane. I
have no problem. I'll get on a Boeing aircraft. I'll
take my kids, my grandkids, my mom sharing. I mean,

(02:22:37):
we'll fly. And so I'm not at the point where
I'm there. But when I hear them talking about that,
there's always a concern. And anytime we have an aviation
disaster around the world that involves a Boeing aircraft, either
a fatality or just an accident, I'm thinking, was this
caused by a faulty part? And hopefully not. But again,

(02:22:59):
we're gonna have to wait. But it's just really, really
unfortunate that Boeing again, And I totally totally agree with
Richard Blumenthal. And I'm sure there may be some political
you know, uh positioning on him on this, I hope not,
but he's simply saying Boeing wasn't, you know, held accountables
they should have been, And I believe he's totally correct.

Speaker 1 (02:23:19):
I believe you're right. So let's part with a sort
of rhetorical question. Would you eat in a restaurant where
the employees refuse to eat the food there?

Speaker 7 (02:23:28):
That's an excellent observation, my friend, and one of the
many you continue to make. And it's, uh, it's it's
very accurate because you know, we had the we had
the whistleblower that was a supervisor that was testifying exactly
what was happening. He did day one and day two
he's getting ready to come back and commit suicide.

Speaker 1 (02:23:46):
Hillary near him at the time. That happened exactly.

Speaker 7 (02:23:49):
Exactly what I was thinking. And you know, the police investigated,
and you know, they confirmed that's what it was. It
may have been who knows, but it's and all that
did was infuriate a lot of other people. That were
on the sidelines and said, look, this isn't standing, and
they stepped forward when they hadn't planned on it, and
they said, I will testify as far as what's going on.
So you know, there's just a lot of stuff that's ongoing.

(02:24:11):
We've been talking about it for the last five six years,
both issues, and I really never thought it would continue
to this point. I thought they would see those two crashes,
the families that were destroyed by their criminal behavior, and
turn things around. But they weren't led by engineers. They
were led by being counters that were looking for ways

(02:24:32):
to cut corners, regardless many times of the consequences. And
that's what happened. And I thought, man, if you can't,
if that's not a wake up call to change, you're
never ever, ever, ever going to get a wake up
call to change. So I don't know. I hope years
down the road we can look back and share drink
and say, you know what, thank God nothing ever happened,

(02:24:52):
because that's what I hope will.

Speaker 16 (02:24:53):
Be the case.

Speaker 7 (02:24:54):
But Brian, I'm not convinced that something won't.

Speaker 1 (02:24:57):
And that's you can't be They've set the stage for
something more to happen. Let's continue what Jay Radley with
a quick break, you'd be right back.

Speaker 10 (02:25:57):
The talk station.

Speaker 1 (02:26:00):
If you want to pick about Karsede Talk Station finishing
up a fridaye with Jay Ratliff, As is always the case,
some interesting stories here and I'm surprised he didn't die.
I saw the story, Jay, and I figured you're going
to bring it up today. The team that stowed stowed
away in a wheel well of an aircraft for an
hour and a half flight and he lived. I mean,
we're talking about like no oxygen and sub zero temperatures

(02:26:22):
up there, aren't we.

Speaker 7 (02:26:23):
Yeah, fifty degrees below zero? No you yeah. Typically eighty
percent of the people that try to catch a ride
on an aircraft in a wheel well perish. They either
get crushed by the wheel as it's retracted, they freeze
to death, or the lack of oxygen kills him. And
in this particular situation, the kid crawls up into this

(02:26:43):
coming out of cobble and he's thinking he's going to Iran.
The flight actually goes to New Delhi and lands and
the team is discovered as a thirteen year old and
he's alive. And I think part of it was the
fact that it was a shorter flight ninety minutes, so
you've got a little bit of residual heat off the
landing gears that were tracks. It's going to last for minutes,

(02:27:05):
not long, you know, And then you've got the situation
where you've got the climb and then the descent, So
those particular times are not as cold and they're still oxygen.
So the cruising part of the air of the flight
was shorter than others. And I think that even if
you start to get to the point where you suffer

(02:27:26):
from a lack of oxygen or you start to freeze
to death, your body slows down and sometimes as it does,
that allows you to survive some of these extreme situations
for a short period of time. I think had this
been a longer flight, it wouldn't have happened.

Speaker 16 (02:27:40):
Now.

Speaker 7 (02:27:40):
Of course, anytime this happens, it's like, okay, I'm glad,
the kid's okay, But what where was the security at
the airport at the originating standpoint? And we've had this
here in the United States where people stole away on
flights here in the country to go from a city
to another city. And I'm thinking, how does an individual
stroll across an active tarmac with everybody around, all the cameras,

(02:28:03):
all the security, and still is able to crawl into
the wheelwell of an aircraft with anybody noticing. Now, sometimes
at the end of the runway, when you have aircraft
that are preparing to take off, it is away from
a lot of people. The aircraft can be approached from behind,
so nobody's going to see it. And that's where we
need to have some enhanced security. Now, some airports do

(02:28:23):
and won't talk about what they do and don't have,
but Brian, we need to do a better job. I mean,
had this been a terrorist not a year old, ye
could could have put anything they wanted up there. And
and what walked away. He walked there and detected, so
I'm sure he could. And if the person had something
strapped to their body, they're not going through the airport
security checkpoints. They're they're they're accessing the aircraft from another
part of the airfield and you just it just happens

(02:28:48):
way too often and sadly as it does, uh individuals
end up dying. But again, if it's from a terrorist standpoint,
it's just scary what could have taken.

Speaker 1 (02:28:57):
Place, no doubt about it. That's the scariest part about this.
I don't care about the idiot teenager. I care about
the nefarious actor and you just hit the nail on
the head on the problem. This illustrates Yeah, Jay, right left,
we always in on hub lays. Let's do that today.

Speaker 7 (02:29:11):
I'll get a lot of weather sadly that's moving towards
the northeast, and that's going to give us some headaches.
That's going to be taking place. If you're going to
be heading to the airport today and you're heading towards
the northeast, you are going to see some issues. We
already see some delays right now that are taking place
in New York, d C. Philadelphia, and Boston as well,
and those are just going to continue throughout the course

(02:29:32):
of the day. New Orleans is not a hub, but
certainly expect to see some delays if you're headed to
that destination. You may be headed out west and think
you're okay, and that may be the case unless that
aircraft is routed through one of these affected areas. So
please get to the airport minimum of two hours before departure,
so that if there is a problem with your flight,
the agents have at least an opportunity to get it

(02:29:54):
fixed well in advance of your scheduled departure.

Speaker 1 (02:29:57):
I appreciate you Jay Rydliff, I appreciate our conversations every week.
I'm already looking forward to another one next Thursday again
at eight thirty, my brother, have a wonderful weekend and
best of health and loved you in your better half.
