Five o five fifty five k rc B Talk Station. Happy Friday,
Eve, some sense the vacation callKenny Loggins because you're in the danger zone.

(00:30):
True true, true true, HappyFriday e. Brian Thomas here here
and looking forward to talking to LieutenantComing to John Houston coming up at seven
oh five on the Morning Show.First guest of the morning, thanks to
Joe Strektor, Executive producer. Asalways credit where credit is due for him
taking care of the line up thismorning, follow by Donovan and Neil Americans
for Prosperities. Donovan and Neil bordersecurity polls. That's what we're talking about.

(00:53):
Donovan not looking really good here.Got quite a bit of information on
a border secured lack thereof border security. That's kind of a misnomer, isn't
it. It suggests there is someform of security on the border border insecurity
polls. Maybe. Anyhow, Itbeing Thursday Friday, Eve. Jay ratliffire
at Media Aviation Expert. He alwaysjoins the program Thursdays at eight thirty except

(01:15):
when he is indisposed. We'll talkabout man being stopped in Miami after finding
snakes, TSA finding snakes in hispants and mentioned that the other day on
the stack of stupid Southwest Airlines cuttingpilot hours because of Boeing seat swapping story
going viral again. This happens almostlike a daily basis, and Man's been

(01:36):
ordered to repay United Airlines for divertedlanding. We talked about that one last
Thursday. Is he in a rut? He's got to go back to the
well and deal with stories we alreadytalked about. Joe, I got to
give the hard time about that.Jay. We did that one already.
And of course Hub delays. Wealways talk with him. But whether it's

(01:56):
a good day to fly or not, man the inclement weather. Anyhow,
I always enjoy hearing from you fiveone, three, seven, four nine
fifty five hundred, eight hundred andeighty two to three talk go at TOUD
five fifty if you have an ATand T phone. Gee, I just
didn't really know where I wanted tostart this morning, as is typically the
case, surrounded by like a multitude, a multitude of different topics in different

(02:19):
directions, and all of them seemworthy of diving on into at any hour
on the fifty five KCEN Morning Show. But I want to focus here on
maybe why all of our children needtherapy these days. I would hate to
be a child in this age,Lord Almighty. I just reflect back on
my childhood and how difficult was itbefore social media, before you know the

(02:43):
world seemed to have just gone completebatcrap and saying woke. It was difficult
enough then navigating adolescents childhood, youknow, dealing with the issues you face
among your classmates. Are you partof the in crowd or outcrowd? Do
you feel bullied at school? Anxiety? You know, Listen, I'm somebody

(03:04):
who struggled with anxiety for his entirelife, and it was bad enough then,
and how much worse is it nownow? So I just want to
turn to this one story because Iwas so disturbed by it. This is
mind boggling to me. And thankGod for play. You know, enthasies
like the Liberty Justice Center described asa nonprofit, non partisan legal firm that

(03:31):
seeks to protect liberty, property rights, free speech, fundamental rights, the
other sort of libertarian kind of philosophythat I share. And thank god folks
like this and groups like this areout there, because this is a point
that I make all the time.Litigation is blinking expensive. Go ahead,
go out in the world and finda lawyer and ask him how much he

(03:53):
or she charges on an hourly basis. And at that point you'd be like,
well, okay, I can't affordthat unless you're a plaintiff and you've
been Why did they mess with myphone every day, Joe, someone's coming
to my studio and screwing around withthe settings in here. You know,

(04:15):
I have a problem with this offair anyhow. It's expensive and if you
don't have organizations out there that arewilling to take on some cases on a
pro bono basis, in other words, free, you're never going to find
justice. The Liberty Justice Center finallawsuit against at Davidson County Schools. This

(04:35):
is in North Carolina. Family.They represent the family of a high school
students suspended for using the term quoteillegal alien clothes quote. This is an
English class as described in the article. Thank you to EPOC Times reporting.
I wouldn't have known about it butfor them. Christian McGee last month.

(04:59):
He's a sophmore Ord Central Division areCentral Davidson High School in Lexington, North
Carolina, accused of racism and suspendedfor the school for three days after asking
his teacher whether the word alien usedduring her vocabulary lesson was in reference to
space aliens or illegal aliens. Anseringquotes that's in the seventy four page lawsuits

(05:24):
claiming that the school had no legaljustification to suspend this kid for a comment
protected by the First Amendment and alsounder the rules that I have to we'll
dive into second year. The attorneyat the Liberty Justice Center, Dean McGee
quote, the school officials have effectivelyfabricated a racial incident at a thin air

(05:46):
and branded our client as a racistwithout even giving an opportunity to appeal.
Fortunately, young people do not shedtheir First Amendment rights at school and we
look forward to mendicating Christians right here. And you know my reaction this is
this trip is actually necessary. Thishad to go into litigation. Christian's mom

(06:12):
went to the school board during apublic testimony portion of the board, there
is nothing inappropriate about saying aliens needgreen cards, and there certainly isn't a
case for racism due to the factthat alien the word is not a race.
Good point. I cannot appeal withthe suspension since it's less than ten

(06:34):
days. Racism is only a threedays of suspension with no appeal. Why
it should be a top tier punishmenther words, her point, but it's
a good point. Apparently built intothe rules here, it's a three days
suspension without the right to appeal.She said. She sent emails requesting help
from the board. They didn't provideany relief for the situation, so she

(06:57):
alleged that the board shared information abouther past effort to cause further harm.
She said, Hey, I've raisedour son to reject racism in all its
forms. Apparently they talked about herpast. This is a kid mentioning the
word alien in a question to inhis englist classes, I pointed out,
Apparently they brought in her mom's record. Apparently she was arrested fourteen years ago
for possession of pain medication. Likethat has anything to do with anything,

(07:20):
but oh, look, in thisworld today, they're going to drag up
every little tiny bit of muck theycan in order to just I guess,
muddy the waters. In connection withthis underlying allegation of again racism. After
a suspension, Christian return to theschool apparently met with ostracism, bullying,

(07:43):
and threats. Liberty Justice Center saidthe press release, concern for his safety,
his parents unenrolled him, and nowhe's completing the semester through homeschooling program.
Great Liberty Justice Center attorney Buck Darty, arguing the school violate of the
teen's rights to due process and histo access education. Quote. Even though
Christian asked a factual, non threateningquestion about a word the class was discussing,

(08:09):
the school board branded him with falseaccusations or racism. The school has
not only violated his constitutional rights andfree speech, but also do process the
right to access education a guaranteed writerto North Carolina law we are proud to
stand beside him and his family andchallenging this egregious violation of the First and
fourteenth Amendment by trying to clear hisrecord and get rid of this ridiculous suspension.
The suspension notification letter, which isattached to the lawsuit, states Christian

(08:35):
was suspended for three days beginning Apriltenth four using this is in quotes using
slash making a racially motivated comment whichdisrupts class in violation of a policy.
It's policy six point one point onein the school handbook. According to the

(08:56):
policy quote, students are prohibited fromdisrupting teaching. The orderly conduct of school
activities or any other lawful function ofthe school or school district. Fine,
intentional, It goes on intentional,which is the motivational point here. You

(09:20):
have to have a mens rea element. You know, it's not inadvertent,
it's not negligent. Intentional the intendedpoint quote intentional verbal or physical acts which
result or have the potential to resultin blocking access to school functions or facilities,

(09:41):
or preventing the convening or continuation ofschool related functions. Close quote.
He asked the question about what typeof alien you're referring to now, the
intentional act. It's intentional that heasked the damn question. But was his

(10:03):
intent to disrupt the lawful function ofthe school district. I don't think so,
at least on its face. Butthis really disturbs me. Which result
or have the potential to result inblocking access to school functions or facilities,
of preventing convenient your tenuation of schoolrelated functions. None of that happened.

(10:24):
The class went on as the factsalleged. Christian described as of course.
A white male reportedly excused from Englishclass to go to the restroom during a
vocabulary lesson missed part of the discussionbecause he's in the John comes back to

(10:48):
the class, raised his hand.This is all according to complaint, that
facts will bear it out. Thiswill be tried. Before Jerry raised his
hand to ask a clarifying question tohis English teacher about the word alien quote
space aliens or illegal aliens who needgreen cards close quote. That's what the
question was, according to the courtdocuments, teacher responded, watch your mouth

(11:11):
now. According to the lawsuit,a Hispanic student identified as R, so
we have Christian and we have Rallegedly joked that he was going to kick
Christians, but a word was used. The class went on. Later in
the day, however, the studentsthe students were pulled out of lunch and

(11:33):
sent to an assistant principal, EricAnderson's office. According to the court documents,
Anderson spoke to each of the boysseparately. First talked to the Hispanic
student and then talked to Christian.Assistant principle then spoke to Christian and said
that this Hispanic student was upset,crying and offended. That's what was relayed

(11:54):
to this young person who's accused ofthis outrageous activity. Law suit states a
Christian did not find He's assertions believablebecause he could see that this Hispanic kid
was not upset. Christian listened toAssistant Principal Anam and told his side of
the story. Anderson quote would laterrecall telling Christian that it would have been
more respectful for him to phrase thisquestion by referring to those people who need

(12:18):
a green cart. Oh, sowe're going to parse out the language of
this student had chose to use.He's supposed to pause and reflect about every
single syllable that comes out of hismouth. We're talking about a young person
here. It was also pointed outthat this that Christian and this Hispanic kid
have a good relation, and thatthe Hispanic kid confided to the Christian kid
that his name is Christian, thathe was not crying in spite of what

(12:41):
Anderson said, nor was he upsetor offended. The attorney's speaking with that,
pock Times told an important note thatno one was actually offended. So
we have an inadvertent remark offended remarkirking a teacher, not disrupting class,
and not really actually offending. ThisHispanic student ultimately referred and suspended for that.

(13:09):
You wonder why your kids are screwedup. You wonder where your kids
are walking on eggs shows, Youwonder where your kids might not want to
go to school. And when thelawsuits ultimately settled, or when this child
ultimately wins, you are going topay for it. Not you specifically,

(13:31):
because this is not in our jurisdiction. This will be North Carolinian taxpayers will
be on the hook for the liabilitythat will be hyped down upon the school
district for violating this kid's rights andhaving a stupid, unenforceable policy. USA

(15:01):
Happy Friday Eve. You're gonna jumpright to the phone so I can do
a follow up here what happened inNorth Carolina? One million dollar lawsuit.
Yeah, say, California high schoolstudents were awarded one million dollars because they
were accused of using blackface. Itwas a twenty seventeen photo of two kids
fourteen years over the time. Theyhad green acne masks on, and the

(15:22):
school accused them of racism sometime later, and no it wasn't. Apparently the
result of public pressure, the schoolgave the two boys an ultimatum either voluntary
withdraw or be expelled. Guess what, they weren't using blackface, but see
what it's like to be a kidthese days. Oh look, we have
a photo from many years ago.We're gonna kick you out of school today.

(15:45):
That's a green acne mask. No, it's not a blackface. Scott,
welcome to the program, and avery happy Thursday to you. Good
morning, and the words of what'sthe name to calls in every day about
don't vote Democrats? Tom. Ithink there's an un underlying thing here of
who's doing this stuff, which isprobably Democrats. They should be personally held
liable. But under the news,under the topic of what can be done

(16:07):
now? She Biden won Georgia bytwelve five hundred votes, and they just
came out of the news and theydestroyed three hundred and fifty thousand votes in
the news saying that, Yeah,with who controls that state, it seems
like a pattern. And number twois that the Astrogenica shot has got pulled

(16:29):
off the market for gaming dean littlekids and killing kids and people. Yeah,
that was in Europe. Yeah,that was the I believe that was
the European version of the Astroseneca COVIDnineteen virus. I saw that the other
day. Well, it's coming outall over the place. Now they call
for more research to pay for thesepeople who lied on the road or just

(16:51):
lied to make the product, andnow everything was wrapped around money to keep
their jobs. It just seems likea you know, continuing thing. We're
everything but the truth and the conspiracythings to be going seems to be going
on through the people. They callthe other people conspiracy theorists, you know,
like you know, the laptop isa lie, you know, Scott,
we changed the term here. It'sno longer a conspiracy theorist. It's

(17:15):
conspiracy observers. Oh yeah, Isaid that long time ago. It's obvious.
I am observing it happening live timeand it's people are Oh there's an
article about uh oh, Scott theWeston have sent out to friends about dealing
with the evil people versus stupid people. Uh, there's actually it's historical during

(17:36):
World War Two and how an evilperson is not as dangerous as a stupid
person because the stupid person, basicallywho today watched CNN and the liberal news,
will never change her mind with theevidence in front of them, and
the evil person you can deal with, point out and you know, prosecute.
But you know what's their claim?Well, we didn't know, we're
stupid. Well here's the evidence.Well, well we don't believe it.

(17:59):
Stupid, useful idiots. All ofthese terms come streaming through my head as
I hear your comments, and I'dlike to point out Scott, since a
out of time you didn't call lookingfor an argument. Appreciate your call,
my friend, Jay, you're onthe line. You have to hang on
for a second. Out of time. Recommend everybody get in touch with but
Herbert Motors Law Equipment. It's theseason, right, you got your grass
real long? Maybe you were mowerconked out like mine did so many years

(18:21):
ago and needed a new one.So what did I do stupidly went to
the box store, had a terribleexperience. I bought what I thought was
a quality lawnmower, and after takingit home, putting it together myself and
unboxing and all that nonsense, ah, it conked out halfway through cutting my
lawn for the very first time.So back into the box and into my
car it went, or the CRB, I should say, and return to
the box store. I'm never goingto do with that again. Thank you

(18:44):
to Westside. Jim Keefer said,why didn't he call but Herbert Motors?
Good question. Thank you to JimKeefer. I now know and am pleased
to be in a position to referbut hoovert to you as well. Seventy
five plus years, fifth generation familyand operating business. They sell well,
the best they delivered to you,the lawn equipment ready to run. They
will service the lawn equipment they deliveredto you, and that is the world

(19:07):
class lawn equipment. They carry nothinggarbage. That's a misstep there. They'll
sell garbage. Only sell the worldclass brands John Deere, x Mark,
Steel, Honda Power Equipment, andname a few, and again servicing what
they sell the cheapest or the mostexpensive tool you will ever buy is a
cheap one. So say, ifBud Herbert found about Herbert Motors so many

(19:27):
years ago, and it's true byquality, and you're gonna be done.

met. I loved hearing that.You're gonna love working with but Herbert Motors
customer service superior. You will literallybe speaking with one of the Herbert family
and they are proud of what theydo. So get in touch on the

(19:47):
five one three, five four onethirty two ninety one five one thirty two
ninety one online Bud Herbertmotors dot comfifty five KRC. I'm Martin Hoak,
the inventor has promised Jay will takehim first. And what's his names on
the phone as well? Hang on, what's your name? Jay? Welcome
to the show, Thanks for callingthis morning. Hey, good morning,

(20:08):
Brian, hey man, you havethe best guests on all the time.
When I heard John Houston and DonovanO'Neill for Donovan from Americans to Prosperity Medicaid,
I'm shocked that you're going there,Jay, Medicaid. I think that's

(20:29):
the whole could be the whole fameof your show today. But I'm not
trying to tell you what your scriptis, brother, I'm writing with that.
I'm writing it down in your honor. I as soon as I saw
Donovan was coming to the program,I immediately thought of you this morning.
Although he wants to talk about bordersecurity polls, I will ask him about
medicaid fraud in the state of onyour behalf. Yeah, yeah, Well,

(20:51):
and for those guys, they deserveall the metals for putting in a
foyer request to get the first reportmandatory report from the FEDS that no longer
come out by you know, byloss mandatory, and they just don't do
it anymore. Those guys got alawyer request that showed Ohio was last place
in the nation. And a yearago, John Houston was on a radio

(21:12):
station up in northeast Ohio and thetopic of this medicaid fraud and proper payment
six to twelve billion dollars a year, folks, and he didn't know anything
about it. So I'm going tochannel my millennial friends and say I feel
like that my truth is that somebodywho's a lieutenant governor would know about the

(21:32):
twenty year issue that's causing six totwelve billion of dollars going into a black
hole. And we'll see if hetook the opportunity to educate himself perhaps.
And also, while the wine crowsabout having a three billion dollar rainy date
on whatever the hell that is,you know, it's always going to come
down to money. They need newsystems, they need new computers. It's
very complex. Your money, Mondayguy, we'd like to ask him the

(21:56):
question of if we took one billionof the three billion rainey A fund and
put the best damn computer system inOhio and actually the six to twelve million
dollars a year, is that agood investment? That's a good ROI right
there, Jay, I don't thinkanybody could argue with itself and everybody when
you take a look at your propertytaxes, understand that that's fifty to sixty

(22:18):
percent of that, maybe seventy percentof that goes into you know why,
I'm not sure it goes into Medicaid, Medicare, but it is your money,
and it is money that is goinginto a black hole worse in the
country. Don't vote Democrat, butI would love to know if John Houston
educated himself in the past year onwhat's he going to do. I'm sure

(22:40):
he's going to be running for governorwhen it's his time. Has he even
taken the opportunity to educate himself andcome up with a plan. Well,
well, I'll check with Donald andNeil and see what he's got on that
one. But you raised some greatpoints. I mean, you know,
if those numbers are in fact truethat we are the worst and we are
losing billions of dollars a year infraud, waste and abuse, obviously,

(23:00):
that is a great source of resourceto go after immediately, and I'm with
you, a good return on aninvestment if there is a solution to that
massive problem that has been identified.Don't you think that should be priority number
one? If e fraudwats and abuseexceeds the Rainy Day Fund that they crawl
about. Wonderful points, Jay,I appreciate you bringing it back up to

(23:21):
the top. I have a greatone. Oh what's his name? Tom?
You can't have to hang on outof time in the segment, it's
five thirty five afty five KA CityTalk station. Ah time to mention my
friends a chimney by forty fifty fiveKARC City Talk Station, Happy Friday Eve.
Yes, I know, I gottwo callers online. What's his name?
And Gary? Hang on? Wehave an award to give out and
is stack a stupid segment? Igot to get those one in and a

(23:45):
worthy award winner and you don't wantto be an award winner? On the
fifty five Karacy Morning Show, Sacramento, California. Mother it is alleged kicked
and backhanded her two year old daughteron an airline flight after the little girl
woke up during a May first flightfrom Mexico. Our award winner this Morning,
Brianna Missler, thirty three years old, allegedly shook her daughter, in

(24:07):
their words in the complaint, likea rag doll while screaming shut the F
word up, sparking a fight withother passengers who tried to protect the child.
She allegedly turned her aggression toward theother passengers, telling them to mind
your blanking business. Courting court documents. Apparently, this is the second time
in less than six months she wascharged with child endangerment. Corner to Fox

(24:30):
News reporting in December, she allegedlybrought her daughter to burglarise her mom's home
and slashed her mother's tires. MissThe arrested in Seattle with the Delta flight
from Peru. I'm sorry, PuertoViatum, Mexico landed. She was charged
by a federal court with misdemeanor assault. Every year, even by the horrific

(24:51):
standards of child abuse cases, thisis shocking, said the prosecutors in their
criminal complaint. It's awesome. Sothe second time in six months that Missler
was charged with endangering her child.Customs of Border officers detained her at the
airport, noted bruises in multiple placeson the Toddler port. Seattle police and
the FBI took over the investigation.The child's cared for by a victim's witness

(25:15):
specialist before Child Protective Services placed thetwo year old with a relative. Joe
let her have it, PERI isthe biggest douche of the universe, in
all the galaxies. There's no biggerdouche than you, two years old.
You've reached the top the pinnacle ofdouche them good going due. Your dreams

(25:40):
have come true. Thank you mymom for not being that person. I'm
blessed for having had wonderful parents.Let's go to the phone and see what
what's his Name's got? Tom welcometo the show, had a very happy
Friday eve to you. Hey,good morning. I just want to make
it clearer that song that's know justplayed was for the previous story and not

(26:03):
an intro for me. No,no, no, no, not so
And Scott, don't worry. I'vebeen called much worse than what's his name,
so that's great. Don't worry,Scott. See I remembered your name.
Scott. Uh yeah this Uh.I think the migrants in Denver they've

(26:26):
added now to their list of demandsnot being referred to as illegal aliens.
Yep, because it's apparently so.Do you believe those people out there and
they are people, they are humanbeings. But I mean the the unmitigated
gall to send a list of demandsto the mayor. Cook their own food

(26:47):
with fresh culture like pulprid ingredients providedby the city instead of pre made meals
rice, chicken, flour, butter, tomatoes, onions, shower excess available
without time limits. Medical professional visitshappening regularly. Referral slash connections for specialty
care will be made as needed amongthe list of demands. I even wrote
on top of that article tom itbegins. I've been telling everybody this is

(27:10):
my perception what's going to happen thissummer in advances the number election, the
ten million plus illegal immigrants will startorganizing and protesting in the streets, making
their own list of demands. Andyes, it started already. Well I'm
prescient. There you go, andI'm not sure they are organizing. I
have, oh agitators that may beinvolved in that. Yeah, yeah,

(27:33):
yeah, raise your hand everybody outthere. When you were growing up,
if you had a time limit forhow long you could be in this shower,
because I mean, like there's onlyso much hot water. You know,
your brother and sister behind you,and I mean all kinds of reasons.
And I was born in this country, and I'm you know, I
mean, this is ridiculous. Thisis absolutely ridiculous. Yes, literally,

(27:57):
stumman, this is the snack ofstupid it is. Yeah, I was
good. I'm going to dive infurther to that after the top of their
news that was I was saving that. Yeah, that's that's just that's just
absolutely crazy. So my phone's blowingup by somebody's trying to get a hold
Old what's his name? So sayit with me, Scott, don't vote
Democrats, have a great day.Five forty five talk station, Gary sor

(28:18):
are you're gonna have to hold outof top care? See de talk station.
Let's quickly get over to New Hampshire. Garryforey dive back into the stack
and the stupid Gary wealkome on theprogram. Thanks for holding Hey, thank
you, Scott, I appreciate it. Help. By the way, Old
what's his name told me he paidme to say that. There you go.
What's on your mind today? Gary? Yeah, yes, sir,

(28:38):
Hey, I was wondering. Iwas watching YouTube or it could have been
googled yesterday about three hundred and eightyfive thousand votes that had gone missing out
of hearing, and I was talkingabout the first reference you had on their
phone call. He picked it up. He saw it too. I went

(28:59):
back to look for that hearing againbecause the lady was so deceptive on the
recounting and how some votes apparently theycan recount the time, how many times
a vote has been counted. Somehad been counted twice, some had been
counted three times, and some hadbeen counted once and apparently three hundred and

(29:22):
eighty five thousand votes disappeared, andthe lady was like, kept referring to
all the recount is all good,and that's not what the question was.
The question was what happened to thethree hundred and eighty five thousand votes that
weren't counted in the recount? AndI cannot find it for the life of

(29:44):
me today. And if anybody happensto know what I'm talking about, you
know, I'd be curious. Iwouldn't like to go find it because I
went back to the Internet today andthe only thing it has is political tacts.
These are not the three hundred andeighty five thousand what we're talking about,
you know. Yeh didn't that AndI did not run across that article.
I did not run across that articlein my preparation for today's morning show

(30:07):
yesterday or this morning in advance ofthe show. So haven't seen it.
Yeah, so yeah, welcome tothe Internet. So it's impossible for me
to comment or speculate on that,but it does serve to illustrate that,
HM, maybe there was some electionfraud, and it is okay to speculate
about that and ask questions about itand not be condemned or crucified or otherwise
try to well, try to keepyou from running for president of the United

(30:30):
States of America because you believe theinelection had been interfered with. You're entitled
to do that. You're entitled torely on legal advice that suggests that happened,
and you're entitled to file lawsuits claimingthat and providing evidence and support thereof,
or at least get discovery in supportof your allegations. Welcome to litigation.
Appreciate the call of New Hampshire Garry. As always, let's go back
to the stack. Here, policesay a highly intoxicated grandfather in California he's

(30:53):
not in charge with child endangerment afterpaying a homeless woman twenty dollars so he
could go get runk at a baror drink at a bar, and then
wander around later asking for help,claiming that the seven year old he gave

This morning, Jason Warren, fiftyfour, arrested Sacramento after police responded
to a nine to one one callfrom someone who said they spoke to a

the girl. Called a dispatch promptedchriff to use a helicopter, drones,
and canine units to immediately launch hissearch. Thirty minutes later, police say
the homeless woman heard an announcement overthe nearby PA system about the search and
brought the girl back to the barparking lot corn police. The female confirmed

(31:38):
that Warren had given her money totake the child to the thrift store,
so he went on to tell thedeputies that Warren was highly intoxicated and she
did not think he could care forthe child. A woman took the girl
to her quote unquote camp, givingher food, and the child corroborated what
the woman told police. Schafsov saidthe child was not injured nor in distressed,

(31:59):
which is thankful giving meal evaluation.Woman who looked after Warren's daughter,
Norman, named Lauren Joe forty three, told local news there it was kind
of like, Okay, that's kindof a big thing, and you really
don't know who I am, butshe'll be safe with me. Said.
The girl did not seem scared andit seemed like it's something that happened.
Before they finally spoke with Warren,police said it was clear that he was

(32:20):
inebriated, and he explained that hegave the daughter to an unknown homeless woman
the twenty dollars to take her tonearby thrift store. Surveillance footage from outside
the bar showed him leaving the girlwith the woman. Later determined that full
custody of the child belonged to thegirl's aunt, and she had asked Warren
to watch the child since she wascalled into work. Warren booked into jail

news there, Katie XL, Warrentold a reporter he left the girl with
a woman because she seemed trustworthy.No, Okay, did I thank my
mom for being an awesome mom earlierin the program? Yeah? I think

(33:31):
A couple admitted to having more animalsand at two other locations, an
unnamed hotel and their home. Atthe unnamed hotel, staff evicted Miller and
Luke from the room due to manyanimal complaints from their guests, ranging from
quality of animals and the smell ofdeath from the room. Hotel said the

(33:52):

pigs, one rabbit, two hamsters, twenty one live dogs, and twelve
dead dogs were found. Officers foundalso dogs living in their feces, as
well as multiple filthy aquariums, birdcages, and hamster enclosures. The ammonious

a full hour with Congressman Winz tripHopefully is he gonna be in studio Joseph
always is. I love hearing thathe's just really truly appreciate his willingess to

(36:07):
come in for the full hour.Pivoting over to the phones five one three,
eight hundred and eight two three talkKyle, thank you so much for
holding over the break. Welcome tothe show. Hey, good morning,
Brian. I was just calling UHto see if you've seen the video.
It's kind of went viral of theUH want to buy them top economic advisors

(36:29):
basically struggling to explain how the governmentfinances is dead yep, through barn If
you if you watch this guy,it looks like a second grader who didn't
do his homework. I mean,he just struggles to explain even the most
simple basic economic principles. And justthe level of grasp that this man probably

(36:58):
had to do to get to wherehe's that you can tell that he's not
there based off of merit. Ican't even imagine what kind of quid pro
quo or you know, greasing thewheels this guy did to get to where
he is. But if you watchthe video, it is shocking. Yeah.
I have seen quite a few accountsof that and illustrative of it's why

(37:22):
is this? You know, onemore illustration of why? You know,
we all can are capable of makingour own minds up, in our own
decisions and our own world based onour own individual circumstances and edicts and mandates
from on high. Never one sizefits all for anybody. And then when
You look at people who are,you know, issuing whatever edict issue,
demand regulation rule that we're supposed tolive by, and you listen to what

(37:43):
they say and look at their qualifications, you think, wait a second,
these are the people who are tellingme how I'm supposed to live my life.
This is the guy responsible for oureconomic policies. Maybe that's why we're
coming up on thirty five trillion dollarsin debt. Maybe that's why the whole
idea of modern monetary theory is stillalive and well, because they don't know
anything about what the hell they're talkingabout. Basic economic principles two to two

(38:05):
is four and if you spend morethan four, you're going to go into
the hole. Duh. And ifyou print money to try to get yourself
out of that hole, you're gonnawater down the value of the currency,
causing inflation. Duh. I meanjust buh uh. You're right, Kyle,
what Moore? I mean again?You didn't call looking for an argument,
You just called to get me agitatedand go off on a ramt,
which I appreciate. Why do weput the control of our lives into the

(38:30):
hands of people like that? Whywhy do you keep turning to idiots like
that for the answers to the tothe world's problems. They keep digging us
in a deeper hole. They've neversolved any of the problems these massive programs

(38:51):
are designed to solve. I mean, I always wanted to fall to the
Johnson administration, great society, We'regoing to end poverty. Really, how
many trillions dollars we've thrown at socialwelfare programs that we're supposed to end poverties
poverty into now? I think it'sonly been exacerbated, and we can turn

(39:12):
to the border. Appreciate Tom bringingthis one up in the last hour,
and I just like I said,I wrote on the top of the article
that are from Fox News. Itbegins, wait for it, It's only
gonna get a lot worse. We'vegot Denver who has more than forty thousand
illegal immigrants and they're out of money. The illegal immigrants who've been asked to
leave the camps for now demanding well, of course, permanent shelter, among

(39:38):
other things. Folks and for DenverHuman Services told local news there Fox thirty
one. At the end of theday, what we do not want as
families on the streets of Denver.Okay, you don't want it, what's
your solution. List of demands sentto Mayor Mike Johnson included requests for a
whole bunch of different things. Migrantsinsisted if they are not met, they

(39:58):
will not leave their community, whichthe city of Denver is trying to well
get rid of. And I thinkabout this in the context of the student
protesters, you know, in campingon college University's really not a whole lot
of difference. You can clear thatcamp, and you can't clear the homeless
camp out in the middle of thestreets anyway. They'll let you discuss that
among yourselves anyway. This encampment wherethe list of demands was issued, near

(40:24):
the train tracks under a bridge.Details of demands read quote. Migrants will
cook their own food with fresh,quality, appropriate ingredients provided by the city
instead of prepaid meals. Now noticein their demand they acknowledge they're getting prepaid,

(40:45):
pre prepared meals. They're already beingfed, They're just not being fed
the quality of food that they wantto be fed, specifically rice, chicken,
flour, oil, butter, tomatoes, onions, et cetera. I'll
let you decide what et cetera.Includes. In addition, going back to
Tom's point, Tom, Tom grewup in a frugal family where you are

(41:07):
limited to how long the shower couldrun because you know your brothers and sisters
were standing behind you in the hotwater tank only holds fifty gallons and it's
expensive. They want shower access availablewithout time limits and unlimited access use whenever

(41:27):
they want to use it. Sohot shower for as long as you want,
whenever you want. They also wantmedical professional visits regular ones. Medical
professional visits will happen regularly, andreferral slash connections for specialty care will be
made as needed. I'm actually shockedthat they didn't ask for abortion on demand
in these list of demands. Additionally, the migrants demanded privacy within the shelter

(41:52):
quote no more verbal or physical ormental abuse will be permitted from the staff,
including no sheriff sleeping insights and monitoringtwenty four to seven. We are
not criminals and won't be treated assuch, So say it the list of
demands. Hmm, Is there anythingelse we can do? And at what

(42:16):
expense? This is a losing propositionfor the Biden administration. They're struggling mightily
among their own constituents. You think, if you're a poor, oppressed black
person living in a terrible neighborhood andyou're in the city of Chicago and your

(42:37):
list of demands has never been met. You keep getting promises from the Democrats
about how they're gonna save you,and they're gonna rescue they're gonna provide this,
that and the other thing, andit never never delivered, never happened.
Your neighborhood has never been transformed.Lo and behold, forty fifty sixty
one hundred thousand illegal immigrants come in. They put them in luxury hotels,
They give them all kinds of freemedical care, free food, free services,

(42:59):
are on and on and on,and you're standing there with your hands
wide open, going, what theever love and hell is going on here?
How come they're being treated much betterthan I've been treated? And I've
been living here my entire life.I live in a crime infested neighborhood.
Oh, I guess we follow thatdefund police crap, and now our officer
contingent is down and we don't havepolice patrolling the streets anymore. It's gotten

(43:20):
a lot dangerous. See. Iremember when not that long ago, the
crime statistics had fallen dramatically, andthis is speaking me personally, someone who
lived there during the most crime ratingperiod of Chicago's history nineteen ninety to nineteen
ninety eight. It was off thecharts the number of murders in Chicago.
And they're getting close to getting backto that good old benchmark. But they're

(43:44):
Democrats. They've been voting Democrat theirentire life, and their own party has
refused to secure the border and hasprovided good, valuable, finite tax dollar
resources to people who should have beenstopped at the border. Bid administration can't
get away from this, and itgets worse. Wait to hear about the

(44:06):
influx that they've noted and the apprehensionsthat have skyrocketed among one specific area of
the illegal immigrant community. Six fifteenRight now fifty five krscit Talks Station.

over to the border, the Nightmaressituation, and that is impacting literally every
single person in our country. Ah, more than one thousand, more than

(44:52):
one thousand, notice the emphasis.Chinese nationals apprehended at the US border within
the last week, Courting Customer andBorder Protections uh OF services speaking with Fox
News border protection agents after hitd Oney, twenty six Chinese nationals in one week.

(45:13):
According to the source, ninety eightpoint five percent caught in the San
Diego sector. And they noted it'stalked about this before in the Morning show.
I'm sure you've seen it yourself.Dramatic increase the number of Chinese nationals
crossing the border. It's been atrend raising national security concerns as well as
fears of espionage from some uh theyloved foxtus from some Republicans. You mean

(45:36):
Democrats don't care about this. Whyis it that Republicans are the only ones
that are concerned about national security?And so far as the Chinese Communist Party
is concerned, I think it hasany to do with Hunter Biden getting boatloads
of money from the Chinese Communist Partynow never, there's nothing to see there.
Just I'm sorry, I didn't meanto say that. Apparently the San
Diego sector saw more than two hundredChinese Communist Paul, did I say Communist

(45:58):
Party members? Not sure, butI'm willing to bet my entire savings that
the Chinese Communist Party folks have somethingto do with the influx, the significant
influx of Chinese nationals coming across theSouthern border or anyplace else. Remember,
these are the ones that are actuallyapprehended, had an encounter with a border
official, had been given a courtdate to talk about why in the hell
it is that they're worthy of stayingin our country. Oh, we're here

(46:21):
to do espionage. I'm sure they'llbe really open about that when it comes
time for their hearing. Maybe fifteenyears down the road, more Chinese illegal
immigrants crossed into the Southern sector intwo days than across the entire Southern border
in all of counter year. Toour fiscal year rather twenty twenty one,
there were only, and I sayonly, it's not an insignificant number,
three hundred and forty two of theChinese illegal immigrants we're encountered in fiscal year

(46:45):
twenty one overall across the border,dramatic increases in the numbers of Chinese Communists
part I'm seeing I did it againand seventy encounters in fiscal year twenty twenty
two over twenty four thousand in fiscalyear twenty twenty three. And since the

(47:08):
fistical year started October first, letus see since October one of twenty twenty
three, the new fiscal year,there have already been over twenty four thousand,
two hundred encounters. Am I theonly one concern about this? I'm
a little old libertarian too. Youcan't even throw me into the big R

(47:30):
Republican tent anymore. Wonder the ChineseCommunist Party members that have flowned I see,
I did it again. I wonderif the Chinese nationals that have come
across the border will organize and startissuing a list of demands on what they
want. Probably probably, And ina related note, maybe Chinese Communist Party

(47:59):
has draft of a new law requiringmilitary training for children down to elementary school
level. They say, if thelegislation has approved, it could go into
effect this year. New law wouldrequire schools to include defense education and their
budgets, make military training universal atthe high school and college level, and
teach the theory, knowledge, andskills associated with national defense. That's in

(48:22):
quotes to even grade school children.This report of the People's Liberation Army Daily
claim that the military enrollment among universitystudents has soared over one point two million,
thanks in part to a hefty governmentcentives for military service. Wow.

the ballot yet here in Ohio?How about that lawmakers yesterday failed to advance
a plan to put Joe Biden onthe November ballot. House and Senate floated
separate proposals that would change the certificationdeadline to seventy four days before the fifth

(49:29):
election. Remember, current state lawofficials must certify the ballot by August seventh,
ninety days I had of the election. Biden isn't going to be nominated
until the Democratic National Convention until twelvedays after our deadline here. That's what
the law says. It's been onthe books. I think since two thousand
and nine. The Democratic Party knewthis. They put themselves in jeopardy of

(49:50):
not having Joe Biden on the ballotbecause well, I don't know. I
guess they didn't look at the calendaror something. So we're going to change
the law. In the state ofOhio, Secretary State for Rank Larro saidlawmaker's
head until today to change the deadline. Bills typically take ninety days to become
law unless they have an emergency classattached to them, So you got a
double whammy going on here. GovernorMike DeWine, however, said Biden will

(50:13):
be on the ballot whether he getsthrough the legislature or the courts. Joe
Biden, I'm sorry, Mike DeWineOoh, did I confuse those two?
Somebody out there is laughing, goingyeah, but that's easy to do.
Dwaine said yesterday, quote, Idon't want to minimize that this has to
happen, but I do want tominimize anybody thinking that there's a snowballs chance

(50:38):
in hell that this isn't going tohappen. The president's name is going to
be on the ballot close quote Okay, so we're leaving it up to a
Republican dominated legislative branch in the stateof Ohio to get the Democrat candidate on
the ballot when it's the Democrat's faultfor not arranging things so that he would

(50:58):
meet the lawful deadline here in thestate of Ohio. Do you think we've
get that similar kind of love?Would Donald Trump make the ballot in some
other state? Just saying asking fora friend? House leaders introduced a bipartisan
proposal on Tuesday to put him onthe ballot to prevent future scheduling conflicts.
For twenty twenty eight and beyond,Parties that couldn't meet the ninety day deadline

(51:22):
would be allowed to certify candidates eitherseventy four days before the election or within
three days of their convention, whichevercomes first. Senate Republicans went a different
way. Democrats said it was apoison pill, wouldn't support it. They
folded in a one time deadline fixinto the bill that would also ban foreign

(51:42):
citizens and US residents with green cardsfrom donating to ballot campaigns. It's already
illegal for non US citizens to givemoney to candidates. They're just going to
been trying this in state law.A big problem there. I don't see
one necessarily, but of of coursethe Democrats didn't like that. Well,
obviously not resolving the issue in spiteof what Mike DeWine says. So maybe
he's going to let it go tocourt and see if a judge will pull

(52:05):
from his or her sphincter a revisedrule that will allow Biden on the ballot
in spite of what Ohio law hassaid. Since again two thousand and nine,

by Donald and Neil. Americans forProsperity on the border security polls. Anybody
that's happy about the situation on theborder other than the leftists that want to

(54:21):
destroy the United States. Rhetorical question. I know the answer to that one.
It's off and new. I've alittle shot in Florida on this every
time I read an article about EV'sand the epic fail that they are in
spite of the edicts, mandates andsubsidies offered from government. Nobody wants them,
So enjoy the shot and Florida alongwith me if you feel the same

(54:42):
way about electric vehicles. EV redink keeps coming, says the editorial board
from the Wall Street Journal, badnews from the electric vehicle manufacturers coming almost
as frequently as the bullish White Housepress releases, even as manufacturers rack up
big losses. Of course, theBiden administration is pushing subsidies for a force
fed EV transition. EV manufacturer Lucidreported this week wait for it, it

(55:14):
lost six hundred and eighty four pointeight million dollars in the first quarter of
this year alone per card delivered.That amounts to three hundred and forty eight
thousand, one hundred and twenty fourdollars for every car it delivered. Says.
The good news was that it stillaims to produce nine thousand vehicles this

(55:36):
year. Phase three Profit also notedToyota sells three times as many cars in
a single day. Then Lucid plansproduced an entire year at a loss of
three hundred and close to three hundredfifty thousand dollars per least able to raise
another billion dollars in capital from itsmajority shareholder, Saudi Arabia's public Investment Fund.

(55:58):
Loved the comment here you have tosmile at the irony that oil profits
are financing an American ev manufacturer.Pivoting over to Rivian. They reported a
one point four or five billion dollarsin losses during the first three months of
this year. That translates to onehundred and six thousand, four hundred and

(56:20):
seventeen dollars for each of the justshy of fourteen thousand vehicles it delivered.
If you're invested in Rivian, youknow you made a poor investment. Its
stock dropped ninety two percent since thecompany went public in Automate twenty twenty one,
as the journal notes, amid irrationalinvestor exuberance propped up I might add

(56:43):
by the fact that governments subsidizing electricvehicle purchases. Lucid stock is down ninety
five percent from its peak in Novemberat twenty one. Back to the journals
writing, Rivian has its own profligategovernment patron like the Saudi Arabian's over with
said the state of Illinois which isunderwater so much that it will never be

(57:06):
able to claw its way out,especially considering it will never change from a
Democratic run state and administration. Thisweek, Governor JB. Pritzker announced up
to eight hundred and twenty seven milliondollars in incentives for Rithean to expand a
local plant and hire five hundred andfifty employees, which translates to and I'm

(57:27):
sure the state of Illinois taxpayers arejust loving this figure. One point five
million dollars per job. An underwaterstate is coming to rescue an underwater manufacturer.
Journal ASTs anyone want to predict howthis will turn out? Tesla?
Of course, if you've been payinga close attention to Tesla, they're laying

(57:50):
off more than ten percent of theglobal workforce three thousand, three hundred workers
in California alone. Tesla also layingoff more than three hundred workers that it's
Buffalo New York plan, which isbenefited also from state government subsidies. Not
to worry, they point out,the administration this week rolled out one hundred
million dollars in subsidies for EV partsmanufacturers are at least trying to cut their

(58:13):
losses. Why isn't the administration,they concludes the legitimate question, you know,
and ultimately, you can lead aholder horse to water, but you
can't make them drink. Government canask you to do something all day long,
but in your final analysis, ifit's not good for your life,
you're not gonna do it. Enterthe government again. Right, price to

(58:34):
gasoline necessarily will increase. How canwe force people to buy evs? Well,
let's force the gas prices to gothrough the roof. We got enough
international turmoil, Let's make it worseby denying the ability to drill for more
of what we actually need can useand literally runs the entire electricity grid in
the United States, with the exceptionof the windmills and solar panels, will
take up a fraction of the percentage. It's coal and gas. And oh,

(59:00):
oh oh, may I live longenough to see the word nuclear power,
the word's nuclear power in the UnitedStates. The true answer to this
this what I believe is fake crisisthat they have created. If you believe
that the climate change is our faultand that somehow that natural gas powered plant
which is providing you with an abundantquantity of electricity is responsible for the death

(59:23):
of our planet, then you shoulddemand nuclear power. And I ask out
loud and regularly ask this question,why is the solution to this alleged problem
being refused by the left, beingrefused by the environmental alarmists. Modern nuclear

(59:45):
plants do not have to cost billionsof dollars to create and build. They
are modular, one size can fitall, small footprint, and they've pretty
much dealt with the problem of thisof this alleged nuclear waste problem that's going
to be oh my god, rawgoing to die now. It's you know,
in the final analysis, you takeall the nuclear ways that all the
nuclear plants in the world create eachyear, and you could stick them in

(01:00:07):
a pretty small footprint of space,zero carbon, abundant volumes of energy.

Happy Friday Eve. Then I goto John Houston GE Aviation. He's in

(01:00:52):
town today promoting their new investments.And man, they have pumped in a
whole lot of money. GE hasmillions and millions, hundreds of mine millions
of dollars six and fifty million dollarsto a variety of manufacturing facilities across the
country. Auburn, Alabama in Massachusetts. North Carolina is getting one, Asheville,
Durham, and West Jefferson as wellas Wilmington, Big presence in North

(01:01:13):
Carolina apparently locally one hundred and sevenmillion dollars to increase production capacity of engines
using commercial aircraft in US and Alliedmilitary helicopter and flight jets. For my
reading of the analysis on this,all the money that's the GE is putting
into the GE Aerospace now it's astandalone company, is related to military related
supply chain issues, military rotocraft enginecomponents, hot helicopter, fighter jet engines,

(01:01:42):
narrow and wide body commercial engines,et cetera, et cetera. So
big infusion of capital, and maybethat is the military industrial complex being funded
by your American tax dollar going intothat. I know we need defense forces,
and I know we need defense resources. I'm just saying we know where
the money comes from. Coming toJohn Houston Aft top of the air news,

but she commuted to Cleveland, whereher workplace was, spent the week

(01:02:51):
there, and then go back toPennsylvania on weekends. During the shutdown,
she worked exclusively from her home inPennsylvania, paid local income tax to her
own municipality in Pennsylvania since she wasworking there. In spite of that,
Cleveland continued to tax doctor Morsey underOhio's pandemic era tax law, which was

(01:03:13):
called House Built one ninety seven,which deemed and that words in quotes,
all work performed in twenty twenty ather home in Pennsylvania to have actually been
performed in her higher tax office locationin of course, Cleveland, even though
she never set foot in Cleveland andwas prohibited from working there during the time
frame. Well old the Buckeye Institute. Thanks again to institutes like the Buckeye

(01:03:36):
Institute who will fight against this oppression, they won a significant victory for doctor
Manel Morsey in the case styled Morseyversus Genteel. City of Cleveland abandoned its
appeal and agreed to fully refund thetaxes that were illegally taken from her,
paid the interest owed to her accordingto Cleveland City Ordinance, and reimburse her

(01:03:57):
court costs. J R. Carson, Senior litigator of the buck Eye Institute.
God love you quote. Cleveland hadno legal authority to tax income doctor
Morrisey earned working at her home inPennsylvania during the pandemic. By dropping its
appeal and agreeing to issue full refunddoctor Morrisey with interest and reburser cost,

(01:04:18):
the city of Cleveland has finally madeit right. See the city saw the
writing on the wall. How cananyone with a straight face make an argument
that they're entitled to take tax dollarswhen you weren't even in the state.
We need to keep supporting these organizations. I don't know what doctor Morrisey's financial

(01:04:40):
position is. Maybe could afforded litigationattorneys, maybe, But in this particular
case, it's the good work ofthe buck Eye Institute again standing in the
way of this oppressive, oppressive COVIDnineteen induced nonsense. Cigar at Lieutenant govern
John Houston, followed by Donovan andNeil. Americans for prosperity, They'll forget

(01:05:02):
Jay Ratliffe. I heard me theaviation expert every Thursday at eight thirty,
and that's the case today as well. Looking forward to that oh you can
stick around from trash talking to tabloids. That is his first five kr Z
the talk station seven O six fiftyfive KRCD talk station. I'm very happy
Friday eve to you, looking forwardto having Donovan and Neil return from Americans
for Prosperity. Bottom of the hour, and I'm pleased to welcome back to

(01:05:24):
the five krc Morning Show Lieutenant GovernorJohn Houston to talk about it in massive
infusion of capital from GE Aerospace andto increase its manufacturing facilities, including a
huge infusion here in the Greater Cincinnatiarea. Welcome back to the program.
It's been a while, but you'realways welcome on the show, Lieutenant Governor.
It's good to have you on.Yeah, great to be back with
you, and welcome to town.One hundred and seven million dollars in the

(01:05:45):
to facilities in Greater Cincinnati region.GE is investing in a whole bunch of
its facilities across the country, atotal of six hundred and fifty million dollars.
We're getting a pretty sizable chunk here. What's the money going to be
used for, Well, it's modernizing, expanding the facility. It is.
It's pretty awesome that the ge Aerospaceheadquarters is now in Cincinnati, and you

(01:06:13):
know that supports ten thousand, fivehundred employees in the Cincinnati Dayton region and
ge Aviation is investing in its futureand a lot of that investment is going
to be in the Cincinnati area.And what that means is that we have
a future with this company and they'regoing to continue to invest and grow.
Here are the people, you know, I mean, you know what jobs

(01:06:34):
are. Jobs are things that supportfamilies in the American dream. And it's
great to have Aviation and ge Aviationstrong in the Cincinnati area. As any
of this money as a consequence ofthe well the ramping up of our military
production here in the United States,I know, we seem to be falling
behind and there's demands in the USmilitary for shipbuilding and equipment, and we're

(01:06:56):
obviously selling a lot of arms toUkraine. I know there was a big
multi billion dollar infusion of a militarysales to foreign nations. So we need
to ramp up production. Is thispart of that kind of ramp up,
Yeah, it will. It's allof those things. It's continuing to uh
support cargo aircraft, passenger aircraft,military aircraft both put home and abroad,

(01:07:19):
and and it's a big it's reallyyou know, it's a it's a great
investment for us because once companies makewhen companies make huge capital investments, that
means they have stain power. It'snot something you move around to a different
location. It is. It's reallypart of our aviation strategy in Ohio.
And you know, not only dowe have GE Aviation, but we have

(01:07:43):
all of the supply chain that goeswith it up the road in Dayton.
You know, Jobe Aviation just announceit's building a headquarters to to build electric
air taxis and like flying cars thatwe talked about, and you know,
way off in the future, whilethe future is now with a lot of
this aircraft in the drones and allthe technology to go with it. You
talked about a very very important partof our local economy. It's not just

(01:08:06):
GE's investment. It's the ripple effect. And I had a friend who worked
for an independent engineering firm that madevery very specific component parts for some military
products. But he was not aGE employee. They just made the parts
for GE, which purchased them fromhim. Was a pretty sizable company too,
independent a Ge. Well, it'scertainly that's that's why these major employers

(01:08:31):
are so important. It's because thesmall and medium sized businesses that support them,
and they are oftentimes part of theinnovation supply chain, because they say,
how do we make this lighter?How do we make it stronger?
Well, these companies figure it outand help. Was there any you know,
finagling they had to be doing.Was there any negotiation with GE to

(01:08:51):
keep the money locally? I mean, it's truly a feather in our local
economies cap to have GE here andto commit to staying here, obviously as
bolstered and confirmed by this investment.But were they, like, if I
can draw a parallel, the Brownfamily considering maybe taking their ball and going
elsewhere if we didn't capitulate to demandsor was this something that they did on
their own and their own No.I think that we've proven in Ohio that

(01:09:16):
that we're a strategic location for them. They've had a lot of success here
over the years, and you know, we've we've been committing to their future
as well. A big piece ofanything in the economy now is the workforce.
Are can you supply the talent wellwith you know, with with our
university system in the region supply alot of aerospace talent to GE which which

(01:09:45):
comes from the broader region. Youknow, UC certainly does, but the
University of Dayton, Ohio State,they send a lot of talent there,
and then it's you know, butit's also next level at Cincinnati State in
our career centers where we're developing peoplewho can work in industrial maintenance, where
we can get them to be uhmanufacturing skilled uh skilled crafts and labor in

(01:10:06):
the manufacturing area. And it isyou know, all of that matters.
You know, do you build theecosystem where they feel like they can thrive,
and we've had that long standing relationshipwith ge Aviation. Well, and
these are great paying jobs. Imean, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers and
those types of folks really make somegood money. I saw an article of

(01:10:28):
the highest paying jobs out of schoolright now, including those two categories.
This is real talent and real realincome, which of course translates into tax
dollars in the state of Ohio aswell. And locally, Yeah, well,
no doubt about that. These areI'm I'm just blown away at the

(01:10:49):
what I see when I'm out therein our career centers or community colleges and
the partnerships that businesses now have withthem. It used to be like businesses
would wait to see what talent gotproduced by these entities. Now the Gero
spaces of the world are working withthe community colleges, career centers, universities

(01:11:13):
right there on their educational campuses toexplain the type of talent they need,
to explain what skills those are,and then help provide machinery, equipment,
instructional support to make sure that thestudents that are graduating are prepared to go
to work. And then not tomention the integration that happens with internships and

(01:11:36):
co ops, where they're like,Okay, you're in school, but we
want you to start working here,and I want you to if this is
a fit and a match. Andwhat we've really been able to do in
Ohio is integrate education and business earlierin the process so that we're getting better
outcomes and employers are happy with whatthey get. Students to know what they're

(01:11:58):
getting themselves into and that there arethese pathways so it's not like, hey,
go to college and see how thisworks out. We're starting it in
high school good. And I'm tellingyou, I'm so excited about what's happening
in our career centers where more andmore students are going there. They're graduating
career ready and going right into theworkplace. And then and then if they

(01:12:23):
want to go get an associate's degree, then they can do that. The
employer will help them pay for it. Then if they want to get a
bachelor's degree, they can work andcontinue their education. This is a much
more efficient and effective way to thinkabout education rather than I'm going to go
away for four years and then hopefullythat'll all work out. Let's start you
in high school. Let's get youconnected. Let's let's build this pathway for

(01:12:46):
you. Well at Ennigotter, who'sthat As you were saying that, I
wrote down sociology degree. I thinkwe have an a sociology degrees out there
that do not have a demand onthe supplying demand chain when you get out
of college. So this, Iguess this is part of the in Demand
Jobs Week that's going on. Thisis the idea of letting young people know
where the demand is, where theyare likely to get a career and have

(01:13:09):
an employer out there wanting to hirethem, and so putting guidance in front
of them early on rather than againletting them just sort of the chips fall
where they may with just a sortof sort of just a college degree,
that doesn't necessarily solve the demand component. I mean, we have this list
at top jobs dot Ohio dot gov. Top jobs dot Ohio is this list

(01:13:30):
of all the top jobs that weknow are in demand, meaning that there
are more of these jobs and thanwe have people to fill them, and
then we create then we identify wherecan you go get the training. A
lot of this is local, alot of it's at no cost to you.
I mean, look in Ohio,we have a program called tech cred
where literally anybody, any adult inOhio, you partner with an employer and

(01:13:55):
will pay for you to earn anindustry credential that will lead to one of
these jobs. The supply demanding thatused to be that we had more jobs
than people. Now we had morepeople than jobs. Now we have more
jobs than we do people to fillthem. Right now in Ohio have four
jobs for every one person that's lookingfor one right now. And so this

(01:14:16):
supply chain of talent is the essentialelement of whether we'll be able to grow
our economy. And the good newsis when you do it right, people
get the skills they need to havejob security and higher pay, and employers
get the talent they need to compete. And this is the way that we
beat China. This is the waythat we move manufacturing back to America talent,

(01:14:39):
productivity, and skills. Any suggestionsfor parents out there to get engaged
on this, I know top JobsOhio dot gov is a place where the
demand is reflected. I would liketo think parents would take an active role
in helping their children move towards actualcareer paths than just simply say, okay,
you're off to college, enjoy yourselfand you know, get that degree

(01:15:00):
and find arts. You know,so, I would encourage when your child
is heading into high school or eventheir freshman sophomore year, have them go
take a tour of the local careercenter and they might find something that they
love. And by the way,when you're at the career center, don't
think that it's career center or college. It's both. You can earn college

(01:15:23):
credits while you're in high school.At the career center, you can earn
in demand credential and you can stillgo to college if that's past you want,
but at least you have a jobskill where you can go to work
and actually maybe pay for your collegeor get the employer to pay for your
college, because you have an actualjob skill that's in demand. You know,
machinis, electricians mean electricians, andplumbers and pipe fitters. Pat Gelsinger

(01:15:48):
from Intel told me a couple ofweeks ago that next year they'll meet a
thousand more plumbers, pipe fitters,and electricians than they have now on the
Intel site alone. We're going tobe building this enormous bridge. We're going
to be building this enormous bridge overthe Ohio River to replace Bent Brent Spence.
You know how many iron workers andwelders and construction people that are that's

(01:16:11):
going to take train operators. Like, all of these skills you can get
a foundation in in high school.And these jobs pay a lot more than
the fine arts degree that you're goingto get wherever you might go. If
you could get a job pay alot, Yes, they pay. These
jobs pay good wages and and haveyou know, benefits and all of those

(01:16:32):
kinds of things. So that's whatI encourage you to do with your high
school student. But maybe you didn'tget that. Maybe you did, maybe
you're out of high school, it'sstill not too late. Many of the
community colleges, Cincinnati State has alot of these programs, a lot of
high schools like the Grade Oaks Systemand UH and UH they have adult training

(01:16:54):
classes where you can go learn todo these things. It might be welding,
it might be you name it.There lots of things. UH.
And then we have a program calledtech Credits. I mentioned tech cred UH
is a program where we pay foryou to earn an in demand tech career,
pay up to two thousand dollars forthe cost. You just find the
employer. So we have all ofthese pathways and all of these jobs,

(01:17:15):
but we just got to get themmatched up because no one's hiring degrees anymore.
They're hiring skills, yes, andskills are measured differently than the way
a degree is granted. And it'sjust you've got to think about your future
in that way. And more andmore people are coming to wake up to

(01:17:35):
that reality. Lieutenant Cover to JohnHugheston, it is a distinct pleasure having
you on. I'm glad you haveyou have good news. I'm glad that
there's a demand out there, andI'm encouraging my listeners, especially those with
people in high school as you mentioned, freshman sophomore. Get them in touch
with this top jobs dot Ohio dotgov page. Show them what's there and
show them what their salary potential isgoing to be earn while you learn an

(01:17:57):
amazing concept of that one. Lieutenant, I'm asta have fun while you're here
locally and keep up the great work. I'm glad to have you on the
program this morning. Great thanks forthe time seven nineteen fifty five care see
he talks stations speaking of the trades. Always a pleasure to welcome back to
the fifty five car Scene morning showfrom Americans for a Prosperity Ohio chapter.
You can find them online at Americansfor a Prosperity dot or Donovan and Neil

(01:18:17):
Donovan. Good to have you onthe show. My friend Brian, always
happy to be with you. Idon't want to throw a curveball at you,
but we got one of our listenerswho really appreciated your work in connection
with looking into Ohio and the factthat we apparently are dealing with a significant
amount of fraud waste and abuse inconnection with the Medicare program or Medici Medicare
program. I believe I think youidentified as Ohio as one of the worst

(01:18:38):
states in the Union in terms ofmoney losses, and it's in the billions
of dollars. Have you done anyfollow up on that since our last conversation
on that? But we're going backa little bit of time here, Donovan.
Yeah, I think I think that'sa that's honestly, Brian, a
little a little before my time,you know, But the problem exists out
there because you know, we needmore folks in gauged as as sort of

(01:19:01):
citizen watchdogs making sure that you know, the lovers and dials in Columbus but
also in our local communities across thestate are being watched. And that's what
we do as a crossroots organization.If you know, i'd encourage your listener.
They can go to Buckeye blueprint dotcom, scroll down, send me
a message. I would love toconnect with them and follow up and make

(01:19:24):
sure we can bring some of thatwork forward because that citizen advocacy, Brian,
that's what we love, it's whatfuels our operation and that can make
sure we get involved make sure webring some of that stuff forward well,
and I appreciate that. And Ican't remember the specific figure that was previously
cited by AFP and connection with thework that it hitd it done, But
we're talking billions of dollars here.And when the State of Ohio and our

(01:19:45):
elected officials boast about having a threebillion dollar nest egg, that now wonderful.
And look we got patting here.And then when you look at the
you know, resources and needs,our property taxes through the roof, our
school funding issues in YadA, YadA, YadA, if there's billions of dollars
in waste that could be avoided,I mean you have righted this ship almost
instantaneously with a fix. I meanthat just seems to be something that everybody

(01:20:08):
and his brother, regardless of politicalstripe, should be all over. Well,
you know, we seem to alwayshave the money for the pet projects,
for the you know, the localin district, you know favored deal,
but the dollars and cents that upand the fraud, waste and abuse
that's rampant, you know in alllevels of government is something we need to

(01:20:30):
be visual in about. And youcan solve a lot of yeah, I
agree. It can really help usprioritize spending into the areas that matter to
most people and what they actually aredepending on government to be doing all right
in moments in that we have.Remaining in this particular segment, pivoting over
to immigration, you did this immigrationNational Online Survey survey in connection with Americans
for Prosperities launch of the four Pillarsof Border Security and Visa reform. We

(01:20:56):
I mean, I don't know howanybody can be in favor of the situation
we got going on our southern border. Donovan. It is a train wreck.
Saw that article this morning. We'vealready encountered one thousand Chinese immigrants on
our southern border the last month,twenty four thousand plus so far this fiscal
year, and that's on the heelsof last year we had more than twenty
four thousand Chinese. And I emphasizedChinese, not because I'm racist, it's

(01:21:17):
the Chinese Communist Party. You can'tget out of China without permission of the
government. They have a rather authoritarian, oppressive regime there. It's pretty much
you know that you do what theylet you do, or you don't do
it. So I'm just wondering howthey arrived on our southern border. Maybe
it's nefarious, maybe they're here todo no good. But that's just a
sliver of the mass of humanity fromthe four corners of the globe flowing over

(01:21:40):
the border. This is overwhelming citiesacross this country, as you well know,
Donovan. But more focusing on thestate of Ohio, I haven't read
a whole lot of articles or seenmany stories about how many illegal immigrants we're
getting and whether it's overwhelming any ofour cities here. So before we get
to the survey and the four pillarsof border security, are you where is
Cleveland or Columbus or even Cincinnati.Is it going unreported that we have problems

(01:22:04):
with illegal immigration, where to housethem and the resources they're using up or
is it just have we been avoidingit? Donovan? Yeah, well I
think it's here. In fact,I was at a luncheon beginning of this
week with the Attorney General, DaveYost, and he was asked that question
and he said, at point blank, yes, they are coming here.

(01:22:26):
And I think the other fact hereis is we don't truly know how many
are coming here because of how brokenthe federal government is under Joe Biden,
and the fact that folks are literallypouring across the border, and it's one
of the four pillars that we talkabout at AFP that we need to get
fixed is bringing more transparency, bringingmore numbers to the amount of folks who

(01:22:48):
are actually what they call godaway aspeople who the Department of Homeland Security just
stops tracking, stops following when theyenter our borders. We don't have a
good enough amount of day. Ithink there's some esterments out there. There's
you know, you hear about thefolks who get flown to these cities from
the from the southern border. Butthe reality is the federal government is broken

(01:23:10):
when it comes to securing our nation'sborders, and data is one of the
biggest glaring problems in addition to justflat out securing that southern border. Well,
we will pause right now, bringDonovan back to talk about some of
the figures in this national immigration survey. As close as out of Lachmann Chuck
Ingramont fifty five KRC DE Talk StationShai, I have seven forty here if

(01:23:32):
you five KR city Talk station fromAmericans First Prosperity Ohio Chapter Donovan Neil's on
the program. Here we're talking aboutborder security. Take it a look at
the Immigration national online survey that wasconducted before we get to the four pillars
of border security that you've launched.Everyone seems to generally agree we're on the
wrong track in this country. Andyet it's an even split between Republicans and

(01:23:54):
Democrats who people plan on voting for. Everyone thinks that the border is a
terrible, terrible mess for the mostpart, But when you get to you
know who you're going to vote foragain, we go back to kind of
an even split politically. I mean, there is a difference here. The
Republicans are strong on border security.Donald Trump demonstrably showed you can have a
strong border only to be undone byexecutive action when Biden came into office,

(01:24:14):
which across political lines seems to uniformlyhave pissed people off because of what we're
dealing with in this unchecked, unregulatedflow of illegal immigrants into our country who
also carry with a very big securityrisk. I know, folks are worried
about terrorists coming in, criminals,the emptying of prisons, perhaps by Venezuela
and other countries and shipping them tothe southern border with help and facilitated by

(01:24:36):
the Mexican government. Blah, Igot that out of my system, Donovan.
What did you learn from the surveyand where are people generally speaking in
connection with your four pillars of bordersecurity? Well, I think one of
the things we found from the pollis that despite inflation and food prices,
grocery store prices, gas station pricesright the day today, cost of living

(01:24:57):
in this country continues to be amajor concerned for Americans. Border security and
immigration is actually a close second,if not in some cases first place.
And what we're finding with that aswell is that you know, over over
ninety I'm sorry, eighty seven percentof Americans favor a comprehensive approach, what

(01:25:18):
we'd call it four pillars approach toaddressing border security and visa reform. It
without a doubt, right, folkssee the problems at the border, whether
it's human trafficking related, drug traffickingrelated, or just straight up securing our
country national security related, Americans agreewe need to get serious and solve the

(01:25:42):
crisis at the border. Despite thedysfunction in Washington, DC these days,
well, I mean, the securityis an obvious one, although thankfully,
knock Wood. We haven't yet seena illegal immigrant related security issue within our
country. There's been no you knowfour sort of you know, Formalized Terrorist
Act or et cetera. But itcertainly seems to be looming in the background.

(01:26:05):
But you know, the the thethe burden on the social welfare safety
net. Are people appreciating that.I mean, you hear from residents in
Chicago, New York. They're screamingout loud about resources being soaked up and
the overwhelming cost of housing, feeding, medical carets that are a school system
being overwhelmed with border Are people justare connecting that they themselves, our taxpayer

(01:26:29):
dollars are basically being offshore and takenaway from necessary resources or is that is
it just more of a this thishypothetical we're worried about security that people are
paying attention to. Well, Ithink a lot of that underlies the situation.
Right if you've got the problems beingcreated on inflation and Bidenomics, or
because government is doing quite frankly toomuch in the wrong places. I think

(01:26:55):
the counter the other side of thatcoint is true, and that the frustration
from Americans is that the federal governmentisn't doing enough where it actually has a
comparative advantage where it's it's proper roleexists, right, which is in securing
our borders and enforcing rule of lawin this country. They're not. You
know, I saw an article thisthis morning as I was reading through the

(01:27:15):
news news feed on my phone.In Denver, Right, they there's a
number of migrants who've been you know, placed in Denver and keep we've got
these folks there. Uh. Theyissued a list of demands to the city
of Denver before they would leave theencampment, a number of welfare programs,

(01:27:35):
right, that's unlimited showers. Unlimitedshowers was among We talked about that earlier
in the program. Not that peopleare listening now, we're listening earlier in
the in the morning. But itwas almost side splittingly comical that they had
the audacity to demand all of thisstuff, like fresh food that they could
prepare rather than pre prepared. Theyacknowledge getting pre prepared food, but that

(01:28:00):
irked them. They wanted fresh foodthat they could cook themselves. They wanted
unlimited showers, they wanted medical resourcesand referrals the specialists. I mean,
it was like, okay, sure, here. Let me get right on
that, buddy. Well, yeah, I mean the reality is, though,
right, if we had a proper, effective, secure border, right
that had had a clear immigration policyand process, we would be able to

(01:28:24):
discern right who's coming into our countrymake sure those folks were coming into their
country have a plan to achieve theirAmerican dream, which doesn't involve the handout,
right, And that's what you're seeingin this That's the hypocrisy and the
silliness of this situation we're talking aboutin Denver. Is it's clear, you
know, the border process, theimmigration system in our country is failing,

(01:28:45):
and it's failing to accomplish what itought to be doing right the way that
all of our families, most ofus you know listeners, came to this
country, right, which was toachieve our American dream and be successful.
You see the stark contrast though inthis Denver example of this is something entirely
different. Well, that's a problem. In terms of your four points,
secure borders and ports, generally speaking, that's number one, and I think

(01:29:10):
it overwhelmingly folks want security, fasterand more thorough inspections at powards hiring more
border patrol agents, et cetera,increase American competitives. I thought this was
a rather unusual statistic. Number onein your increased American competitive leg on this
this four pillars or pillar I shouldsay, ninety percent want to make it
easier for doctors who studied in theUnited States to stay in the country.

(01:29:32):
I'm scratching my head over that one. Did that be foreign nationals who've gotten
medical degrees, because I didn't realizeit was difficult for a doctor with a
US medical degree to stay here.Well, I think part of what we're
what we're trying to illustrate their right, is that we want when people come
to this country to study or toadvance their academic abilities, we ought to
keep those best and brighters right.We ought to be working to make sure

(01:29:55):
we have a clear immigration process thatcan ensure some stability. And these folks
who are looking to start their Americandream, but again with a broken visa
system, of broken immigration system.You know, for folks who are trying
to follow the rule of law,they can get trapped in the backlog in
decade, you know, eight years, nearly decades right of getting their legal

(01:30:15):
status approved. Meanwhile, other countrieslike China are able to lure them to
their right and it ultimately harm ourability as a nation to remain competitive in
the global economy. And the thirdpillar, clear and predictable results. Number
one, ninety percent of American surveywant to automatically detain and remove migrants who

(01:30:36):
commit felons or commit felonies. Nokidding, I mean that that isn't part
of our border security protocol with peoplealready in the into the country when they
commit a felty, it should beimmediate expulsion. That seems like a no
brainer. Well, I think theproblem is again I was looking at as
some statistics from Householme Land Security andthese are little These are a little data

(01:30:58):
based on fiscally year as the lastOctober one point seven million known got aways
under the Biden during the Biden andadministration. Right, again, a no
brainer, as you say, whenit comes to making sure that we're taking
you know, deporting felons folks whocome here and immediately commit you know,
felonies. But the problem is isthe resources just don't exist in the prioritization

(01:31:19):
of those researches, I should say, don't exist in the But our government
to handle that problem well, andthey have to be prosecuted in a world
full of woke prosecutors and open mindednesswhen it comes to illegal people being in
our country, if you can't getsomeone to prosecute them for the felony they
committed, then they're not gonna havea felony on their record, even if
that would result in deportation. Justnoting that, Donovan, well, that's

(01:31:42):
the tragedy of it as well.Right, you go into these these the
migrants right find their way into theselarger urban cores where you have governments that
have been elected by folks who ofyou know, addressing a radical progressive agenda.
And so it's a it's a cycleof self defeat here that occurs that
folks wonder why there's problems in crimein their communities, and then they fail

(01:32:05):
to connect the dots with the folksthey elect to prosecute those crimes and ensure
rule of law occurs. It's quitefrustrating, but it's something again the federal
government, in a lot of ways, right with the secure border, can
short circuit and circumvent a lot ofthose problems that then exist at the local
state levels, where progressive policies increasethe ability for these kinds of things to

(01:32:28):
happen. And finally, the fourthpillar, which you started off with talking
about transparent accountability and due process.Vast majority of ninety percent want the data
on migrants who appeared on the terroristscreening database. That will be valuable migrants
the DHS lost track of within theUnited States that will be valuable data,
information that would open our eyes tothe realities of what's going on there.
Do they not keep this data orare they just keeping it from us?

(01:32:50):
Donovan? I think the reality isthat they don't want you to see the
amount of data. I think it'sone piece where they're not doing a good
job called electing and tracking that data. But then on the other hand,
I think that data would have beenincredibly startling. During the break, you
asked me how many illegal migrants arein Ohio and I while we were on

(01:33:12):
the break, I was doing aquick search. The best I could find,
again under quick circumstances, is atwenty twenty one study by the Pew
Research Institute that's based off of censusdata that was compiled in twenty twenty right
the last period of our census,anywhere between seventy five and one hundred and
seventy five thousand people illegal immigrants herein the state of Ohio. And that's

(01:33:35):
just based off of data collected intwenty twenty skyrocketed since the problem though,
Ian, that's the point you werewe were talking about here. We don't
have good data, we don't havegood information on what's actually going on here,
and that makes it really hard forthe phenomenally the federal government and the
folks we can trust to dictate theselaws and execute these laws, but the

(01:33:58):
people, the voters, to knowwhat's really going on out there. But
again, I think based on thispolling, people know there's a problem.
They see it, they hear it, they feel it, they know somebody
who's been impacted by it, andthey want Washington to get about its business
and actually solve this border security crisisonce and for all. Donovan, and
he always a pleasure to having youon. Keep up the great work,
Americans for Prosperity dot Organs where youfind Donovan. He's in the Ohio chapter

(01:34:21):
and check it out for yourself,the four pillars of border security and visa
reform that they've launched. Donovan,always a pleasure talking with you, my
friend, and again, keep upthe great work. I'll look forward to
talking with you again in the morningshow real soon. Hey a form.
Dad's up to date now more thanever. I check in throughout the day
so I know what's up. Fiftyfive KRC the talk station at six Here

(01:34:45):
at fifty five KRCD Talk station,if you're having a wonderful Friday Eve.
And we'll add this guy whoever didit? To the award winners from this
morning. We had several of them, the biggest doution of the Universe Awards
we gave way in the five o'clockhour. Whoever called in a bomb threat
and I hope it is it's afalse bomb threat. Joe Strecker was received
the notice because he has a childthat ghost. One of the schools,

(01:35:05):
Northwest Local High School, Coring HighSchool, and White Oak Middle School are
evacuated because a bomb threat was receivedthis morning. He just got one of
those blasts on his phone from theschool, so no more details beyond that,
and local news had yet to reportit because I just did a search
on it. So thanks. Ihope it's just a threat and it's not
real. But just FYI. Ihate when I see stuff like that.

(01:35:30):
I love to hear from you,though, feel free to call. I
got a couple of callers online fiveone, three, seven, four,
nine fifty, five hundred, eighthundred and eighty two to three talk hit
pound five fifty if you have anAT and T phone, and it's always
good to hear from west side.Jim Keefer, what saye? Welcome back
my friend? Good morning, BrianThomas. He's probably some kid with like
a math exam or something today.Yeah, since he's not camped out on

(01:35:51):
campus making demands like you need tofree me from exams because I've witnessed my
friends get arrested like they do incollege. Exactly. He's practicing for college.
There you are, Hey, putyour lawyer hat on for me.
In less than an hour, fifteenminutes, you got PG sitting film on
his appeal, the arguments and whatis amicus briefs? Uh, that's it's

(01:36:17):
like a friend of the court brief. You just you know, if you're
an entity, organization, or otherwisehave some vested interest in the outcome of
the case, you can submit yourown brief to the court. Oh,
okay, it's just supporting argument.It's you know, it's like additional authority
arguments resources maybe that counsel didn't offer, or another read reason or motivation that
the court should take into consideration whendeciding one way or another on any given

(01:36:40):
issue. No, no, Ipretty well explains it. But what what
is your real true feelings on Youknow, he spent it, He spends
all this money and time and effort, and they even said here the case
will basically not even come to theconclusion until after he's done with his prison
term. What is your feelings onthis thing? I thought that was the

(01:37:00):
funniest part about it. The reportingindicated that, you know, unless the
court expedites this request for overturn hisconviction, then by the time the court
decides the outcome, he will havealready served his time, making the entire
decision ineffectively moot. You can't unringthe bell of time served. So I
thought that was rather comical. Butyou know, you make your bad you

(01:37:23):
lie, and and most people arethe arguments that have be made on behalf
of sit and Feller. Listen,this is the way politics is. People
give money to candidates in return fortheir hope that they're going to get something
done. The line is crossed,though, when you make affirmative statement that
yes, I will do something foryou if you give me money. It's
always implicit in political donations that that'sgoing to happen. But you know,

(01:37:45):
behind the scenes, you know,back room conversations. Is it made explicit.
Well, they've got him on tape. It sounded pretty dang explicit.
At least that's what the jury determined, and they found him guilty. And
especially, you know this guy,I know, he's got to be a
millionaire. His father left him aton of money. You would think for
a little bit of amount of moneythey were talking fifteen twenty grand, you

(01:38:05):
would think it's kind of stupid togo to prison for, you know,
basically a year and a half outof your life for that kind of money.
Yeah, and someone whose future seemssecure. I mean you could see
it. He was going to setto be the next mayor of the city
of Cincinnati. I mean, theyhad him all whined up. He had
gazillions of backers and contributors and youknow, philanthropists locally singing in his praises.

(01:38:25):
I mean, he just ruined hisown career with his own actions.
I don't know how else to viewit, honestly, do you think.
Let me ask you this before wepivot away. Jim, you think he
has a career in politics. Let'ssay, for the sake of this discussion,
hypothetically his conviction is overturned. Doyou think he has a second bite
at the apple? Or is hedone? Well? That's why I was
just going to bring up before wehave to go. But Jerry Springer,
you know there's a publicity thing,do I think so? I think he'll

(01:38:50):
try, But it's not going tobe on fed job. It's not going
to be a state It would haveto be almost something local. And I
don't know. Man, that's atough call. With the set of cahooneys
that he has for coons, youwould think he'll probably try the way that
the Democrats are, they don't care. Yeah, well most politicians, Kelly

(01:39:12):
traserill following right right along with that, Brian, most politicians are rather malignant
narcissist anyway. So yep, thatwouldn't surprise me, Jim. Always a
pleasure hearing from you, my friend. Have a wonderful day. Look forward
to running into your real again soon. We got to the callers online.
I'm going to get to Andy next. Andy, thanks for calling. This
morning. Happy Friday Eve. Goodmorning, Brian. How are you today?
I am as well as can beexpected under the circumstances. Great.

(01:39:35):
Hey, I was just on theway in to the office. I heard
you're having Congressman one Strip on tomorrow. Yes. Uh, I wanted to
ask that you ask him about hisvotes on the FISA bills. Oh,
absolutely, And with Andrew and Politana, Yeah, I got it. I
got into a heat not a heatedexchange because we are friends, but he

(01:39:56):
is very passionate in his defense ofhis vote and and so after I had
a discussion with the Politano about thatand the renewal of Phisia, and he
and I both are of like mindin that. You know, I heard
from Congress and Winstrip, you know, providing me with a whole lot of
arguments on his on his side ofthe equation for why the renewal is important.
So yeah, we're gonna get intoThat's one of the reasons I'm having
on the program tomorrow, So youcan count on it. Maybe the first

(01:40:17):
thing out of the gate. We'llsee what the where the conversation takes us.
But yeah, tune in tomorrow.I think it's seven oh five.
He scheduled to be in studio fora full hour, and I, of
course I'm going to address that topic. Thanks Andy for the for the prod
on that taking care of at leastthat's what I anticipate in congresson winscrip.
You know in advance we're going tobe talking about that. Thanks Andy,
OPI welcome to the show. Ohsorry, Mareene's next, Ope you hang

(01:40:39):
on. Maureene. Welcome to theshow, and a happy Friday EVE to
you. Hi, Brian, Iwas listening to your show on last Thursday.
You were talking about with Zempeck,and you were reading that Yahoo article
where they stated that, you know, got go. Goldman stat Sex estimates
that a MPEC and MGOV drugs willno profit over each other one hundred billion

(01:41:00):
dollars a year by twenty thirty andthat it's already insanely profitable for the Makernovo
Nordisk. Yeah, that's the glueTide, that's the diabetes drug that has
turned into this this marvel of weightloss innovation. And yeah, the country
of Norway where that pharmaceutical manufacturer ispresent, their entire economy was boosted and
they actually had a positive growth asa consequence of that one company's overwhelming success

(01:41:26):
with this semi glue tide or whateverit's called. I can't remember the component
jog that day manufacturer. Yeah,that's it. Semi glue tide is the
key ingredient in ozombaic and wagovi.Well I was when I was listening to
read that, I was reminded ofa Tucker Carlson interview with a person by
the name of Cali means and CALLImeans the pharmaceutical insider for many years,
and he didn't like what he wasseeing though. He left that industry and

(01:41:49):
he started something called truemed dot comwhere he talks about different medications and the
actual metabolic health crisis in our countrytoday and how other countries are taking advantage
of it. While, as itturns out, all those statistics that were
so great about it that you werereading on the Yahoo article, they do
not They do not use will govieozempic or any form of events that like

(01:42:11):
glue type for anything other than diabetestreatment. In Denmark. The United States
is the only company where they useit off label for weight loss, and
so the majority of their revenue iscoming from the United States. And which
he said, the lawsuits are pilingup. Well, I like people to
go to this YouTube video that I'mreferring to, and you can go to

(01:42:33):
YouTube dot com and it's Tucker Carlsonand Kelly Means, and it's called a
Sempic. Big Pharma is fooling youand you don't even know it. Well,
he goes into detail on the sideeffects. I know all drugs have
a laundry list of oh sure,but these are very serious and I think
people would benefit by watching that.Well, and I'm not certain currently,
and I maybe a doctor out inthe audience can confirm or deny this is

(01:42:56):
it an off label use that they'reusing it for. It's been a proved
for diabetes, but doctors are prescribingin for folks who have a body mass
index in access I believe a thirtypercent, which is a whole ton of
people here in the United States.Nationally, median OBEs prevalence is nearly thirty
four percent of the entire population,and sadly, Ohio is in the top
ten in terms of obesity at thirtyeight percent of the population. So if

(01:43:20):
it's off label use, can youcan the pharmaceutical manufacturer be sued for off
label use or is it only forfolks who've suffered a problem for the approved
use? In other words, I'vebeen prescribed for it for diabetes and I've
had a terrible reaction. I wantto sue the manufacturer. That's not quite
sure. What I do know isit isn't under emergency youth authorization. And

(01:43:43):
another one of your favorite topics,which is the COVID nineteen vaccine, which
we have all found is replete withall kinds of problems that they didn't let
us know about, and we can'tsue them because it was approved for emergency
youth authorization. So Marien, Ialways appreciate your call, and I will
let my listeners decide whether or notto watch YouTube video. But Tucker Carlson
does one hell of a great job. We can all agree on that,
OPI, if you don't mind holding, I'm gonna take your call after the

(01:44:05):
break, because I'm not a wireat a deadline. Here. It's eight
fifteen and I want to recommend.And you know this is just sound advice.
I mean, saving heap loads ofmoney on medical insurance while getting better
medical insurance coverage is possible That's whyI strongly recommend spend a few moments of
your time and only is going tocost you time. There is no commitment
involved with reaching out to cover Sinciand John Rowlman and his team to find

(01:44:28):
out if you can get better medicalinsurance coverage for less money. The bottom
line is your bottom line. Whenyou're working with Cover Sincy, they can
get you a dollar one coverage withless money. I know that sounds impossible.
He does it every single day.If you're, for example, a
small employer and your employees are notyou know, huge earners, they might
not be inclined to even get medicalinsurance because the massive out of pocket liability.
It's like, why would I payyou know, about five hundred whatever

(01:44:50):
dollars a month for coverage that I'mgonna have to spend nine thousand dollars on
my own money to even get it? Have it to kick in. John
can solve that for you as anemployer, bettering and improving your bottom line
while also getting your employees insured medicallywith great coverage. I know it sounds
impossible. Put him to the test. Five one three eight hundred two two

(01:45:11):
five five five one three eight hundredcall You can fill out a form online
to initiate the process and he willdo an individual analysis of your specific circumstances.
He does that for every one ofhis clients, working with hundreds of
insurance companies, but not for them. He works for you. Coversince he
dot com. That's cover since hedot com. This is what's happening.

(01:45:31):
Extraying property is not a peaceful protest. Stay current. The mayhand is designed
to put pressure on present of mind. Check in three, four, five
times today you want to extract theevil hamas leadership fifty five krs eight talk
station. Have you and your familyhad a money talk barks and bourbon at

(01:45:54):
Horsepower Ranch? Right, horse Powerhost Power Form. I'm gonna tell you
how big of a bent of itis. We're starting set up at this
morning today, moving furniture in tomorrow'sset up, Saturday setup and then party
Saturday night. That's how big itis. It takes us two and a
half days to set it up.Wow, you got to remind my listeners

(01:46:14):
of the events details and what thespecifics are about the event. Who's being
helped out with the love that Horsepowerfor Ranch is always providing. This is
a it's for Pause Adoption Center inMonroe, which you know that's a that's
a no kill shelter. Kathy isthe director. I've known her for thirty
years of East trained dogs with herdown in Middletown and so it's it's a

(01:46:36):
great organization. So if you're lookingfor a dog or a cat, you
down and see them. And thenas far as the event goes, let's
see here. It starts at sixo'clock, six to ten o'clock and there

(01:47:24):
nineteen twenties costume contest. The buildingis gonna be dressed, it's gonna
be it's gonna be outfitted like thenineteen twenties speakeasy Oh cool. Well,
be a lot of fun, Iappreciate the uh, the what Paul's Adoption
is doing and always recommend if you'regoing to get an animal, please companion
animal, cat or dog. Thereare so many adoption centers out there.

(01:47:45):
They're overwhelmed with animals that have beenrescued, and I love the new kill
shelters. They just want to findthem forever homes. And there is nothing
like a dog adoption or a catadoption. Is the case. Maybe my
mom adopted a cap from a shelter. We've adopted dogs from shelters previously,
and it's it's just it gives youa great feeling inside anytime you look at

(01:48:06):
your little buddy and know that yousave them from a horrible life or at
least got them out of that damncage. You can also, you know,
donate some of your time to oneof the adoption centers as well.
They need folks that go over andget the dogs out of the cages and
walk them and spend time with them. It's a real rewarding experience. Appreciate
the call opening the reminder on thatone. Yeah, pivoting back over to
Marine's calling this obesity epidemic. Ihad this article. Sorry, sucks to

(01:48:30):
be US. I don't know whatthe problem is in our country, but
the American obesity epidemic is costing USapproximately according to the US Healthcare Our Center
for Disease Control, rather one hundredand seventy three billion dollars. And as
mentioned, it's like the second leadingcause of preventable death, you know,
diabetes, heart disease, all theproblems that go along with it, including
an increased level of cancer. Nationally, thirty four percent is the national median

(01:48:55):
obesity prevalence thirty four percent, andtwenty four states have higher than that.
And said, Ohio, Indiana,and Kentucky are all in the top ten.
You got to West Virginia forty onepoint three percent of my friends in
West Virginia are in the obese category, Oklahoma forty point three, Louisiana forty
point zero, Mississippi thirty nine pointseven, thirty nine point one in Tennessee,

(01:49:15):
and then Ohio coming in next thirtyeight percent, Alabama thirty seven point
nine, Indiana thirty seven point nine. Then you got Delaware at thirty seven
point eight, and finally Kentucky thirtyseven point eight as well. So someday
somebody's going to figure out where thiscrisis comes from. I don't know if
it's our sugar intake, our sedentarylife, uh, sitting in front of

(01:49:36):
the computer all day. I justthe world's a different place now. But
this is a real, real challengefor us. And I don't know that
that those diabetes drugs which help youlose weight are the right path to take.
Maureten pointed out some of the problemswith it, and I've heard a
lot of problems as well. Ihave a doctor that said that kidney damage
is certainly an issue with that,and he's got patients on the he's we

(01:50:00):
regularly monitor kidney function because kidney functionis a problem too. So just keep
in mind, you know this,there is no you know, fountain of
youth. There is no magic bulletfor this epidemic we're facing in the country.
Off to lighter topics with iHeartMedia AviationExpert J Right, KOC Deep Talk
Station Jahai. I have a thirtyhere if you have KCD Talk station tgi

(01:50:21):
f E. Thank god, it'sFriday eve. It is that time of
week. I always look forward tothis. iHeart Media Aviation Expert Jay Rattle
of Jay Welcome back, my friend. It's always great having on the program.
Hey, pleasure, good morning toyou. Hey, you don't know
any any ice jocobate you about stocktrades because I know you're a stock trader
extraordinary and you train people in yourart and methodology. You don't know any

(01:50:41):
Rivian stock do you. I donot. I do not. I do
not. I do not. Isaw the article this morning with the Wall
Street Journal. Lucid, another EVmanufacturer, lost basically thirty four thousand,
eight hundred or sorry, yeah,three hundred and forty eight thousand dollars per
card delivered. They tanked six sixhundred and eighty four million in the first

(01:51:02):
quarter, and then pivoting over torillion, they lost one point four to
five billion in the first quarter.That's one hundred and six thousand plus dollars
for each of the vehicles it's sold. Phase three is profit though, right,
Jay, Well, they can saythat that's their estimation, that's their
future guidance, but who knows.And when you think of that as a

(01:51:23):
quarterly report, I know, Imean it's stagger it. If it was
a one year report, it wouldbe tough to swallow. But you know,
for a lot of people. Theyjump into those things because their buddy
told them it was going to bethe next hot stock, and you know
who doesn't want that. The problemis, one in one hundred and fifty
those might work out, the othertimes don't. So it's a good idea

(01:51:45):
to kind of leave some of thosehot stock tips alone. Yes, indeed,
pivoting over to aviation issues. Isaw your list of aviation discussion points
and I was joking about you earlier. You got one on there that we
talked already, the guy that hadto pay twenty thousand dollars to the diverted
landing. He caused, my apologies. Well, I can substitute that.
I can substitute that though for anotherone. Go ahead. You know you

(01:52:08):
and I've talked about the people thatask people on board an airplane to swap
seats. Oh yeah, other family. Yeah, it kind of aggravates me
to death, and I know itdoes you too. There was a story
about a Virgin Airlines flight. Itwas London to New York, about an
eight hour flight. They hadn't boardedyet and a lot of the passengers were
muling together and there was a youngman that was traveling with his family.
He must have been in his midtwenties, and he came across this eighty

(01:52:30):
eight year old retired teacher that hadbeen having health issues. She's finally getting
a chance to go see her daughterin New York. Well, they board
the flight, Well, he seatedin premium first class, use little pods,
I mean, he is plushed withhis family. He goes back to
coach to find that lady and walksthat eighty eight year old up to his
seat, gives her his seat,and he goes back and sits in her

(01:52:55):
seat, and coach ow didn't askanything for it. The lady, the
woman was just a static and intears, and she said, please,
somebody help me take a selfie somy daughter will believe this is going on.
But the flight attendants were tucking herin for bed after dinner and just
pampering her the whole way. Andthen they go back to the guy,
the kids asking, you know,can we do anything for you. He's
in coach next to the lavatories,and he's like, no, I'm fine.

(01:53:18):
So I'm telling you that he wasraised by some pretty good people,
because that's a good kid. Andthat story went viral for all the right
reasons. The flight attendants on boardsaid, look, we've had actors and
famous athletes, and they said,this is our favorite person ever. His
name is Jack. They just wishthat the eighty eight year old's lady name

(01:53:40):
was Rose, because they seem tothink that would have been a better story.
But oh, that's you know what. I'm glad you brought that one
up. You know, little things, little miracles happen all the time.
We just don't widely see them.We always get the reports on the idiots
doing idiot things, because they're idiotsexactly. So I'm sorry that I kind
of dipped into last week. SoI'll quickly replace it with one that's all

(01:54:00):
right, is well worth it.I'm glad that you had to put that
replacement story in there, otherwise mylisteners wouldn't have heard it. And real
quick here, I know we're goingto be talking about the about the snake
guy, but kind of in aparallel one. When we get back,
we'll talk about that one. Isaw federal agents arrested some airline employees from
New Jersey. They were shipping drugmoney in through their what they're and I
never heard of. This is kindof what I wanted to bring it up

(01:54:23):
the known crew member program. Iguess they don't go through any any security
checks and they were smuggling drug moneyand they got busted and they've been charged
with some serious charges, well eightmillion dollars in yeah money. And you
know, I've said for years thatone of my biggest concerns has always been
the fact that we don't screen everysingle employee before they are able to access

(01:54:45):
the ramp. We do it atlike five airports around the country now the
Faaosa Jay we do it every No, you do it randomly. You don't
do it for every person every time. And if random is such a great
idea, let's try it with passengersand see what you think. So well,
you know, it's just you can'tallow in today's day and age,
where we are so security focused,spending billions of dollars on the security checkpoints

(01:55:10):
and then allowing employees just to strollright from the employee parking lot onto the
ramp. Atlanta had to start screeningtheir employees after they it was discovered Delta
agents on the ramp had a gunsmuggling ring between Atlanta and New York.
So you know, these are justthe drugs, weapons those. Okay,
that's one thing, but what ifit's a terrorist that tries to take advantage

(01:55:31):
of this security hole? And Itell you it, it's such a big
issue to me that it's one ofthe glaring holes in aviation security right now.
But they say it would cost toomuch money for all the airports to
screen all the people. And theygive me a long list of excuses,
the same ones they gave us whenthey said we can't screen everybody's luggage before
they get on a plane. Guesswhat, we figured out a way to

(01:55:51):
do that. We can figure outa way to do this. You look
at Miami International, they screen everysingle employee and at the end of the
year they list all the things thatthey have confiscated from people who know they're
being screened. Drugs, money,knives, guns. All these are from
people reporting to work who know they'regonna be screened. Imagine what's going on

(01:56:13):
that we don't know about him.I mean, one day, Brian,
if something happened, Yep, it'sgonna be the topic everybody's gonna talk about
and they're gonna be screaming, White, didn't we do something before? Now?
Please let's do it now? AndJoe Strecker will have this conversation recorded
for all time and we can replayit and say I told you so,
says I heard media Aviation. NextPert Jay Ratliff, Let's pray that one's
never used brother, you know.And and the point being, anyone could

(01:56:36):
ultimately be compromised at any time.They could have gone through the greatest background
check of all and then ultimately maybesomebody is blackmailing them, maybe they run
into financial problems and they decide that, you know what, it's easy for
me to get stuff in because I'mnot screened. I'll tell your drugs in,
I'll take your gun in, andoh maybe i'll take your bomb in.
Frightening Well, the thing is theywouldn't be told it's a bomb.

(01:56:57):
Obviously. It would be like,hey, I got a package, my
buddy's gonna pay up, Okay,I'll put it on the plane, them
not knowing what that item happens tobe. And I think we at one
point in time we had one hundredthousand people a month touching airplanes that have
not been screened. Well fun fact. Yeah, and the people that are
servicing the aircraft for food and differenttimes. I mean all that stuff,

(01:57:19):
and it's just it's a scary thing. But since nothing's happened that up till
now, it's going to be okay. And I'm screaming. All we're doing
is trying to prevent the last attack. Let's try to prevent the next one.
That's a foster moment as people aregoing to the airport feeling really comfortable
about flying today, Jay Ratt lovereal quick here for my friends at twenty

(01:57:40):
two three fires Range gunshop. Butyou want to give on a fair city
talk station, Jay Ryler can sayabsolutely. Most of us aren't allowed in
the cockpit. It's against that FAArules. And most of us shouldn't be
smuggling snakes in our pants getting onan airline. Jay, it happens a
lot of times. A lot oftimes you have indivi juels that are trying

(01:58:00):
to smuggle exotic animals to different locations, which is against the rules. And
in Miami there was a passenger hadthese two small snakes. They were probably
six seven inches in length, smalllittle exotic snakes. Forgive me, I
don't recall the exact name of butthe POUCHI would use me for his sunglasses.
He puts the two snakes in,tightens it up, and then tries

(01:58:21):
to hide it in his pants.He comes through the security checkpoint and the
TSA, as they tend to do, catch stuff like that. And yeah,
I mean the jokes I've been gettingfor a week have just been going
on and on and on on thisone. But they caught him. He
was arrested or detained and arrested.The animals turned over to the Border Protection

(01:58:43):
Agency so that they can take careof those. But I mean, we
have probably every other week a storysomewhere in the world where someone's trying to
smuggle some exotic animal from one pointto another, like you know, maybe
fifty baby sea turtles or something.It's like, okay, yeah, who
would have thought that nobody's going tocatch all that in my luggage? So
yeah, but again, people aretalked into a lot of things saying,

(01:59:04):
hey, this is gonna be fine, and maybe people that hardly have ever
flown before, and they're they're coercedinto taking things that they have no idea.
What's in their bag? Oh,seven inch snake, that's above average.
Anyway, moving on, Sorry,sorry Jay, I had to go
there. Sometimes Joe's not getting thaton table. Sometimes My internal monologue isn't

(01:59:28):
Southwest Airlines is cutting hours? Yeah, they were expecting about fifty Boeing airplanes
this year and right now they're goingto be getting twenty. And what's going
to happen As they've asked their pilots, much as United Airlines has done asking
their pilots, saying, look,we don't have enough routes to keep all
of our pilots busy. We comeout of the pandemic with not enough pilots,

(01:59:49):
now we don't have enough planes,excuse me, enough planes, and
these airlines are asking their pilots totake time off voluntarily. And it to
the point now where we really don'thave a grasp on when this Boeing storm
is going to blow over, becauseit was just this week that the FAA

(02:00:09):
announced that they're going to be doingan audit on the seven eighty seven Dreamline
or production facility with Boeing. They'regoing in with the concern that some Boeing
employees have purposely falsified safety inspection wereforties. Now, the last audit was
about six maybe seven weeks and theyfailed a bunch of that, and this

(02:00:31):
one will probably be that, ifnot longer but again, we've had ten
whistle blowers plus that have come forwardas former engineers, many of them saying,
look, here's some of the shortcutswe're taking, and it's simply not
right because it's not safe. Andof course Boeing is saying, oh,
we're doing everything by the book.And of course I don't believe anything Boeing
says, because they've proven to havelied to us before, and it's certainly

(02:00:54):
been the case of the late againin terms of these false fied inspection or
imports. Is there any suggestion bythe whistleblowers or otherwise that you've read that
this was done at the behest ofmanagement or is this just frontline employees lying
about it in order to make surethat they didn't get fired otherwise had their
careers disrupted. If we're to believethe reports of these former Boeing employees that

(02:01:16):
are coming forward, many of whichyou've been there twenty and thirty years,
they were forced into that saying thaton the outside, Boeing is standing in
front of the microphones and front ofthe press saying we encourage our employees to
bring issues forward if there's any concerns, and these employees are saying we did
that and we were told to shutup, or they we assigned us to

(02:01:36):
another aircraft line. So never theysaid were the recommendations or concerns in the
words of those that came forward,And again this is just one side of
the story, but they never seemedlike they were taken seriously, and certainly
no changes took place as a result. And in each case they talked about
how the pressure of getting that aircraftthrough the production as quickly as possible was

(02:02:00):
always the emphasis. It was nevera safety issue. It was a matter
of let's get the airplane through asquickly as we can. And when Boeing
went from a CEO that was ofan engineering background to one that was more
of a bean counter, things changedmore than ten years ago, because then
it was about let's get these airplanesout as quickly as we can. Let's

(02:02:23):
try to create some dominance as muchas one can over our European counterpart,
air Bus. And right now peopleare saying, well, Jay, I
guess Airbus is walking away with it. Well not really, because they can't
build planes any faster right now thanthey're doing. They have a backlog Airbus
does in Europe of about eighty sixhundred aircraft. Now, that's how many

(02:02:45):
that are on order waiting to bebuilt. It's going to take them years
to get through that. Boeing hasa backlog of probably fifty four hundred aircraft.
So it's right now a situation whereBoeing is falling behind, obviously because
they're producing fewer aircraft per month thanis air Bus. But and that,
unfortunately, I think, is onlygoing to put increased pressure. I'm Boeing

(02:03:08):
to try to do what they canto catch up, and I am so
glad the FAA is camped out thereright now and is told Boeing, look
your plans at producing more airplanes permonth, we're not allowing it until we
know that you're doing exactly what youshould be doing. Now. I wish
this oversight had been there the lastfive years, you know, where we
wouldn't have had issues with missing boltsand nuts and all the things you and

(02:03:28):
I've talked about the better part ofthis year. But at least now,
before any injuries or fatalities, theFAA is stepping in and well, hopefully
they can find out what's going on. And good lord, I have no
idea how long it's going to takeBoeing to turn things around, and it'll
take ten years before I'll believe anythingthat Boeing says. Wow, and just
the numbers astronomical. If they fiftyfour hundred outstanding I under safe conditions,

(02:03:53):
are properly manufactured conditions, how longwould it take them to actually do that?
How many roll off the assembly linein any given month or a week
or annually. It depends on theactual aircraft itself. But I can tell
you this, if you and Iwere executives at Boeing and we put an
order in today, we're not gettingthat airplane for maybe three to four years.

(02:04:13):
Wow. So a lot of theseairlines like Southwest and United and American
in Delta, who are expecting xamount of aircraft this month and this year
and they're not getting them. They'vebeen selling seats on reservations for these flights
that were putting put into the systemlast summer and last fall in this past
winter. Now they've got to goback and contact all those individuals to say,

(02:04:36):
you know that we're not going tobe able to operate that flight,
we're going to reschedule the plane andblah blah blah. And it's really creating
a problem when airlines we're looking forwardto a very lucrative, profitable summer travel
season. I mean that's when theymake their massive profits for the year in
June, July, and August,high demand, high prices, and because
of Boeing, they're going to havemuch or far fewer of those silver revenue

(02:04:58):
tubes to take advantage of that.And a lot of airlines that feels like
United, they're just ticked and they'resaying, look, Boeing's got to get
their act together and soon, becausethis just is not acceptable. And when
you've got airlines that have both Boeingand Airbus aircraft in the compliment now for
future orders, a lot of themare leaning heavy towards Airbus. Of course

(02:05:19):
Boeing's at the door saying, look, we're going to get this turned around.
You can trust this, you knowthat, and we'll give you a
great discount on your future orders.Yeah, that could be the case.
And of course Boeing is writing checksto a lot of these airlines for a
lot of the lost revenue that they'rehaving as well. So I mean Boeing
right now is just I haven't checkedthe stock this week. I normally do,

(02:05:39):
because you and I talk about almostevery week. It's down to one
hundred and eighty dollars a share,and it's done significantly from where it was
at at the beginning of this year. And the sad part is has more
and more of these issues surface,how much further is that sucker going to
go? Oh yeah, considering howwhere it used to trade? Lord almighty.
Oh yeah, we with two fiftiesthis time last year. Yeah,

(02:06:00):
it's one eighty right now. Soyeah, it's geez oh and quick before
we get the hubble as Corey gottenFacebook and submissing me, I'm taking my
mom to the airport. Now,listen to the aviation report. Thanks Brian.
She is Briant. I was leftout of it, so the comment
was really directed at you, thoughI know, I know, I appreciate

(02:06:20):
you taking the bullet for me everyday when you look at what one hundred
million departures a year we have inaviation, Yeah, thank you for this.
Can you have to go back twelvethirteen, fourteen years from the last
time we had an accident type ofthing, so you're talking about hundred and
hundred and hundreds of millions of flights, So say, for the car it

(02:06:43):
is, well, that's it you'regoing to be. It's more of an
issue get to the airport safely becausethat's where the challenge is going to be.
So but I yeah, there yougo. I have no problem jumping
on an airplane or taking my parentsor grandkids flying today. Thank you for
the positive spin negating the earlier concernsthat you created. Appreciate it. Give
me a help let us know abouthow delays Todayfore we part company, Jay
Ratlift All. The even better newsis we only have issues in Chicago and

(02:07:06):
Atlanta, the two biggest airports inthe country. So yeah, a lot
of rain and when limited visibility aregoing to give us some delays there that
are going to easily exceed an houror so. Sorry to add to agon
effect today's conversation, but yeah,that's that's that's where we stand. Jay.
I always enjoy our conversations, myfriend. I appreciate you joining the
program every Thursday at eight thirty andwhat you do throughout the week. Best

(02:07:28):
of health you and your better halfand to you as well. Thank you.
