55KRC Tuesday Show - Empower U, Breitbart, Deep Dive, Steve Goodin

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:07):
Five o five at fifty five KRC, the talk station,
Happy Tuesdays.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
It was a vacation.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
I'm the dude, may I you may be.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
I am Brian Thomas.

Speaker 4 (00:32):
So it's the fifty five KRS Morning Show and a
very happy Tuesday to you. Good to see Joe Strecker
in there. Jacob producer of the fifty five kr Morning
Show and the man responsible for the lineup, which includes,
beginning at seven thirty, of the guests, Michael Mercier got
into Power Use Seminar. It's the last one for the
calendar year, and it is always ending on a fun note.

(00:52):
Dan Regnold I think was the originator. Of course, it
was the originator empower Youse seminar generally speaking, but he
always liked to end the season on something oh uplifting
or fun, and that's the case an Elvis lecturer concert
and celebration. So if you're an Elvis fan, you're gonna
be an opportunity to have some good times. So we'll
get to details from Michael at seven thirty on that one.

(01:15):
Moving away from the headier topics of politics for sure,
eight oh five The Inside Scoop of Breitbart News.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
This is unbelievable.

Speaker 4 (01:21):
Nick Gilbertson, who's the capital of the reporter, It's gonna
be talking about the shenanigans going on in Pennsylvania, where
they continued up until yesterday to count votes after the
Supreme Court had previously ruled. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court previously
ruled that no, you need to stop counting the votes
that don't comply with Pennsylvania law, a radical shift from
twenty twenty, when well the law was thrown out the

(01:43):
window in the name of COVID nineteen or whatever. The
lawlessness in this is unbelievable, and the callous nature of
the officials that are counting these votes in response to
prior Supreme Court rulings is mianed blowing, so much so
that I'm not going to wait till eight point five

(02:04):
to talk about it. We'll get to that in a moment.
Daniel Davis, Steve Dive, I've really been looking forward to
talking to Daniel Davis, but the latest in the Russia
Ukraine situation. He's also going to be talking about Israel
a little bit more back burner, given the news of
late with US providing Ukraine with authority to use these
longer range missiles that they will launch into Russia. I

(02:27):
suppose in an effort to bomb the North Korean troops
of amassed in Russia to help Russia fight the war
against Ukraine. And I'm still struggling over that one. I
guess maybe was the North Korea and Russia recently entering
into a mutual defense treaty. That was the reward North

(02:49):
Korea got for while taking ten thousand or more of
its own troops and sending them to Russia to fight
on the Ukrainian front. Anyway, the whole situations getting a
little alarming. Over in Europe, We've got a critical undersea
internet cable that got severed. Happened in the vicinity of

(03:11):
the Swedish island of Goblin and the Baltic Sea. Happened
early yesterday morning. That is frightening stuff. Internet cables they
transcend the ocean waters, they flow under the Baltic Sea,
they flow everywhere, and if you're cutting off Internet communications
that could be a massive problem. So certainly a tool
of warfare. It's gone on just recently yesterday morning, Moscow

(03:35):
giving us a warning by allowing Ukraine to hit Russian
soil with their longer range weapons, and we have the
Swedes telling their citizens to prepare for nuclear war and
start stockpiling food and water. Swedish government issuing well to
all of its citizens a list of things that they
need to stockpile, including iodine tablets and just in the

(03:57):
case of nuclear fallout. Well that's real comforting now, isn't it?
So big question mark swirling around what the hell the
Biden administration is doing in advance of the Trump administration
taking over? Maybe just let's get us involved in World
War three. Frightening stuff going on. But back to the
Pennsylvania This really is just blowing my mind. Pennsylvania Supreme

(04:21):
Court just ordered the board of elections all throughout the state,
although a couple of Board of Elections are the ones
that are primarily responsible for this, even happening to follow
its previous rulings, I mean pointing back to a prior

(04:42):
ruling that it issued. Hey hey, idiots, didn't you read
what we wrote previously in our ruling about counting ballots.
So they had to issue a follow up opinion yesterday
telling them basically just that, in other words, don't count
mail in and absentee ballots that failed to comply with

(05:02):
the state election code. We said it before, why did
you ignore us? So get to that in a minute.
So the issue this ruling. Yesterday, election board officials in
this notably in Buck County, were defying Pennsylvania's Supreme Court
president and counting ballots that the Court had already determined
cannot be counted. So in the most recent ruling, it said,

(05:26):
I just summarized the paragraph. The Court hereby assumes that
it's King's Bench authority over the instant application only to
direct that all respondents, including the boards of elections in
Bucks County, Montgomery County, in Philadelphia County, shall comply in
bold caps with the prior rulings of this Court in

(05:48):
which we have clarified that mail in and absentee ballots
that failed to comply with the requirements of the Pennsylvania
Election Code shall not be counted all caps for the
purpose of the election held fifth twenty twenty four. Was
this trip really necessary yet? Donald Trump is the guy

(06:09):
who's going to end in democracy or the Republicans.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
We know it.

Speaker 4 (06:12):
It's separation of powers that exists in states as well.
States constitutions mirror the Federal Constitution, dividing the executive branch,
the legislative branch, into the judicial branch into three independent powers,
separate but equal. I guess in this particular case, the
boards of elections are like, well, screw the Supreme Court.
We're not going to listen to what they have to say.

(06:33):
What do they know which is really boiled down what
they were saying. So the Republicans had to bring suit
against all sixty seven counties in Pennsylvania where the race
between Senator Bob Casey, who refuses to concede to Senator
elect David McCormick, who's been declared the winner according to

(06:53):
the legitimate vote tally. Associated Press called for mcort But
this ruling comes after several days after Bucks County Commissioners,
the plural Diane Ellis Marsa Gallia and Chair Robert Harvey Junior,

(07:18):
moved in a two to one vote that was within
the commissioners two to one vote to go ahead and
account four hundred and five misstated or undated mail in ballots.
The appeal read. The board did so even though its
legal advisors recommended rejecting the ballots based on the current

(07:39):
state of the law, and even after a warning from
the county's legal advisors that counted the ballots would likely
lead to a lawsuit and guess what it did, wasting
the taxpayers all kinds of unnecessary resources in litigation when
this had already been decided by a prior to Supreme
Court decision in the in the state. This Ellis Marsagalia

(08:04):
woman said, I just can't vote to reject these ballots.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
I just can't.

Speaker 4 (08:10):
As noted in the filing her words, Council for McCormick
wrote that the board of the board violated the election
codes mandatory date requirements, and the Pennsylvania Supreme Courts repeated
orders holding that the date requirement must be enforced. It's
the law of the state, folks. These two elections officials

(08:37):
also moved to count provisional ballots missing signatures and one
or two really critical races, despite the Pennsylvania Supreme Court
ruling from months ago that said provisional ballots missing the
signature cannot be counted. As for Ellis Marsgalia, she for

(08:58):
her part, said she didn't not value the court's precedent,
even boasting she was indifferent as to whether or not
she was breaking the law. Quote, I think we all
know that precedent by a court doesn't matter anymore in
this country, and people violate laws any time they want.

(09:20):
So for me, if I violate this law, it's because
I want a court to pay attention to it. Close
quote Oh really, Just contemplate that attitude as you contemplate

(09:42):
the laws that are on the books. Joe, you're not
allowed to take someone's life unless it's done in self defense.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
Murder. Just make a point, Joe, go ahead and commit murder.

Speaker 3 (09:58):
Why not.

Speaker 4 (10:01):
Do you want a court to pay attention to the issue.
They voted to count the ballots even after the county's
legal department told them that unless it is signed by
the voter in two places, we shouldn't count these. In
a concurring opinion, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court Justice Kevin Brobson

(10:25):
in the Monday to disabuse local elections officials of the
notion that they have the authority to ignore election code
provisions that they believe are unconstitutional.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
Quote.

Speaker 4 (10:35):
Indeed, this Court has held that administrative agencies like county
boards of Elections lack the authority to declare unconstitutional the
very statutes from which they derive their existence and which
they are charged to enforce. Mind blowing and a kind

(11:07):
of related note. As we talk about you know how
we're going to cut back fraud, waste and abuse in
government with this DOGE Department, Senator Jony Ernst, Republican from
Iowa is talking about the IRS and they have more
than eight hundred IRS workers owing millions of dollars in
back taxes. This is even after report happened earlier this

(11:27):
year exposed how many millions of dollars a day owed,
most of them still employed. She requested a report back
in earlier this year. It revealed more than fifty eight
hundred RS and contractor employees owed almost fifty million dollars
in overdue taxes. The agency only fired about twenty of them.

(11:50):
In spite of that pressure, the IRS wrote in a
letter sent to Representative Joony Ernst that of the two
thousand and forty four employe who reported having balances totally
more than twelve million dollars, eight hundred and sixty is
still not paid their taxes, only twenty to seventy who
willfully evaded paying taxes were fired. Ernst said, we haven't

(12:12):
seen a tax revolt like this since the Boston Tea Party.
If hard working Americans dodge taxes, they are faced with
steep fines and imprisonment. But it appears that tax collectors
in Washington believe those rules are for thee but not
for me.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
Well.

Speaker 4 (12:29):
Hell, people violate the rules of the law all the time.
And you know, there are a lot of people out
in this country that believe that taxing is unconstitutional in
spite of the fact that there is an amendment justifying
the income tax as a matter of principle. You know,
those people who claim to be sovereign citizens. You may
call them batcrap and saying but hey, listen, it's a law.

(12:53):
We're just making a point. Doesn't matter anymore what the
law says. People violate the law any time. Five one, three, seven, four, nine, fifty,
five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two three talk go
with pound five fifty on at and T phones. Plenty
more to talk about, and this hour stack is stupid.
Coming up local stories as well, and then a lot

(13:16):
more in the six o'clock hour. I hope you can
stick around.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
What's happening For the.

Speaker 5 (13:19):
First time, Ukraine uses missiles from the United States just
strike inside Russia.

Speaker 6 (13:23):
The persons that the president is choosing Matt Gates Senator
Marco Rubio America First policies.

Speaker 4 (13:28):
The day's news the nation has divided is on fifty
five car See the talk station, remember first oneing we
the horcast tells us we got some rain tapering off
lid of this afternoon part of cloudy sky's all day
high sixty eight, over night little forty seven with some clouds,
mostly cloudy. Tomorrow high of fifty five with isolated mid
day showers, clouds over night thirty four, and on Thursday,

(13:51):
mostly cloudy.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
Day rain slash snow chances.

Speaker 4 (13:55):
High a forty Right now, it's fifty seven five per
see talk station. Uh you got that right, I got
that right in the studio whatever chuck Ingram Pop's in
the studio. You know there's problems going out there on
the roads.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
Well, you don't need no stinking snow.

Speaker 4 (14:11):
You know. I love talking to you, man, But when
you pop in, it's like, uh oh, yeah, this is
some bad news coming our way.

Speaker 7 (14:17):
This is some bad news coming your way. On southbound
seventy five. Dumb truck. I believe it's a rumky truck.
I haven't been able to conferm it yet on its
side just above Azer Charles. It hit the barrier wall
and it took out about a ten foot section of
the barrier wall, enough so that it hit four other
cars heading northbound.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
Oh my god.

Speaker 7 (14:40):
Yeah, so this is a pretty good crash that they're
working on right now. As I left my studio, the
left three lanes of southbound seventy five are blocked off.
There was talk of blocking off everything southbound at the
Western Hills Viaduct. That hadn't happened as of yet, so
there's still at least one lane of travel getting into
downtown now northbound seven, the left two lanes are blocked

(15:01):
off for these folks that were just doing their thing
and coming up the highway and all of a sudden
got clobbered by debris enough on one of them. I
heard them say on the dispatch. One of the was
an SUV, was enough to deploy the air bag. So
are any injuries reported that I haven't heard answer yet. Yeah,
they were still trying to sort out exactly what they're doing.

Speaker 4 (15:22):
So it hit it with enough force to blow through
the barrier wall.

Speaker 7 (15:26):
Yeah, yeah, to knock about ten feet of the concrete out.
So there is the call to o DOT. They're going
to have to come in and inspect. You probably have
to come up with something temporary to go in that slot.
So you can't have a ten foot gap heading into
down downtown in there.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
Or giant chunks of barrier wall blocking lanes of traffic.

Speaker 7 (15:45):
And go yeah, yeah, with the three other cars. That
are three or four cars that were hit.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
Geez.

Speaker 7 (15:50):
So this is going to be my talk for the
rest of the morning. Probably it sure is. They were
already backed up past Dezer Charles almost to the bridge.
Northbound Southam was above the Western Hills Viaduct and heading
for Hoppele So okay, I'll be talking to you about it.

Speaker 1 (16:05):
Yeah you will, So jog around the city on what
is that?

Speaker 7 (16:11):
Well, I guess your best bet is the lateral at
the moment. If you haven't passed the lateral, come on
over to southbound seventy one one. But you don't have
southbound four seventy one as an alternative. So you guys
met them coming right back across Fort Washington Way to
pick up seventy five again. If they shut it down
all together, they may leave one open, and this time

(16:32):
of the morning, that could help.

Speaker 4 (16:34):
Well, I'll pay time too, But it's certainly going to
be a huge back. You're right, Chuck Inger will be
listening for your reports all morning. I can't thank you
enough for coming and let my listeners know in advance
about what's going on.

Speaker 3 (16:43):
No problem, it's going to be a biggie.

Speaker 4 (16:44):

hang in there. Brother, Oh my word, it's like piling on.

Smith Event. Welcome to the program, Bob, thanks for holding
over the break, my friend.

Speaker 8 (17:53):
Well, thank you.

Speaker 9 (17:54):
Good morning, Brian.

Speaker 8 (17:56):
I'd like to ask you a legal question.

Speaker 9 (17:59):
I'm not a little but I tried to follow some
like legal rulings right to one with the Supreme Court
of Pennsylvania. I know a few months back federal Supreme
Court overruled the Chevron doctrine. Yes, and I'm thinking that

(18:21):
this is similar to that where now the state Supreme
Court has told this administrative Office of the Elections that
they do not have the authority to determine if a
law is unconstitutional.

Speaker 4 (18:37):
No, completely different. Chevron doctrine provided the lee way you
were to defer to the administrative state on what they
interpreted the law to means. So if there's any gray area,
you give deference to the back the regulators behind the scenes.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
So that's been limited.

Speaker 4 (18:56):
This was an outright defiance of state law law, the
state law state you had that had damned signature on it.
And this this, this county clerk or these commissioners were
counting the ballots anyway, an absolute direct violation of Pennsylvania law.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
They ignored it.

Speaker 9 (19:14):
Okay, So it wasn't filling in a vague.

Speaker 4 (19:17):
No no, no, no this and it had already been
spoke spoken that the Supreme Court had previously ruled on
this exact issue. I mean, this is this opinion from
yesterday was basically pointing backwards to the prior decism saying
we already told you you can't do this.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
This is law.

Speaker 4 (19:36):
This is outright lawlessness. You know, I understand the idea
of you know, vaguary and interpreting the law if it
isn't very clear, you know, everybody takes some leeway with that.
That's the lawmaker's failure to to to to you know,
pass laws that are very clear in what they say,
and that's how you ended up with a chevron doctor
in the first place. But no, this was you must

(19:59):
have the signature on the ballot you cannot count a
ballot without a signature, and here they are going basically,
screw you guys, We're gonna count them anyway.

Speaker 9 (20:08):
So it's really contempt. Now.

Speaker 4 (20:10):
Oh, it's just outright lawlessness, is what it is. I
can't come up with any other term to describe it.
But I appreciate the call and the ability to further
vent my spleen on that because I'm to find it
hard to believe.

Speaker 9 (20:24):
I am happy that the Supreme Court of the State, though,
is willing to take the issue up.

Speaker 10 (20:30):
They had taken it up already. That's the crazy part
about it. If this was the first bite of the
apple for him, you can say, Okay, well, they gave
it their best shot. They tried to count the ballots,
and they got shot down by the Supreme Court because well,
maybe the Pennsylvania maybe the Pennsylvania legislative brands didn't actually
write it very clearly. But no, in the aftermath of
twenty twenty, they rewrote the laws and they very clearly

(20:50):
defined what can be counted, what is required to make
a valid to vote validly in the state, and follow
the law.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
They follow the law.

Speaker 4 (21:00):
And previously went up because somebody wanted to count the
signature or the count ballots without signatures. Onto the Supreme
Court earlier on said no, you can't do that. The
law says very clearly there must be a signature. And
here we go back again after they ignored that ruling,
back to the Supreme Court, where they basically said, look,
we've already been there, we already ruled on this. See

(21:20):
the prior decision. Unbelievable. Appreciate the call over the local stories.
Since our council apparently has a new plan to help
homeowners who are delinquent on their property tax bills, Hamilton
County ordered returned one million, seven and eighty two thousand,

(21:42):
four hundred and twenty one dollars to help the city
help struggling families catch up on the property tax bill. Yesterday,
the Budget and Finance Committee passed the measure. Still questions
about who's eligible, wondering about that, how the city will
distribute the money, and whether there are income restrictions. Yeah,
those are challenges before passage. Some low and middle income

(22:03):
housing advocates Warren City leaders about what could happen if
they did not pass the relief package. Since sanny Hamilton
County Community Action agencies. Matt Strauss said the passage of
generational wealth is at stake if something is not done.
Seniors are at the greatest risk, he pointed out. Others

(22:24):
say it's only going to get worse for those who
are struggling this year. Stacey Purcell with Legal Aid Society
said many of these homeowners are going to fall behind
their mortgage payments and other tax bills coming in January.
City launched in July the Home Safe Property tax relief
program that was designed to help those struggling to pay

(22:45):
the property taxes. Offered up to ten thousand dollars for
families who were eligible, but some residents that spoke with
Brett Berganski of WCPO doing the reporting on this, we're
asking for more widespread relief. UH still questions about how
the city's going to use the money, counts members seth
while Walsh also offered another solution. He said, the state

(23:07):
is what's causing this right now. The state is at
fall for this, and if we want to change it,
we need to force the state to step up and
actually help people. I think that's a valid point. Taxes
are an issue for Columbus. I'm sorry, you know, I

(23:27):
love going to see concerts. I wish we had more
concerts in the city, but boohoo. Scott Wartman of the
Inquiry reporting about the bans that did not come to Cincinnati,
apparently in argument in favor of us building a brand
new giant stadium or something. Heritage Bank Center forty nine
years old apparently doesn't meet the needs of many touring acts.

(23:49):
So who skipped out on us? I know, that's kind
of what I was my response, Joe, So we missed
out on blink one, Elton john Machine Gun Keller, Cody Johnson,
Jack Harlowe. Do you know who these all these people are?

Speaker 3 (24:08):
Joe?

Speaker 1 (24:09):
Good? Because I was feeling maybe alone in this.

Speaker 4 (24:13):
Oh and you know, really really just a real blow
to my desires that the Jonas brothers they went to Indianapolis, Pittsburgh, Cleveland,
and Lexington in August of last year but passed up Cincinnati.
So how many millions of dollars are the taxpayers want
to go in the hole so we can get the
Jonas brothers in town as opposed to driving in an

(24:34):
hour and twenty minutes to Indianapolis, just asking five point
thirty five fifty five ks. The talk station Pete's on
the phone. Pete, I would love to take your call.
I don't have any time in this segment, but before
we get to the stack of stupid, we'll talk. As
long as you stick around, you can feel free to
call on as well, folks. I'll be right back. Celebrige

(24:57):
John nine says the weather will be as follow us

Southbound seventy five, an overturned truck above Azer Charles has
the left side of the highway blocked off. That's backing
up to the Western Hills Viaduct northbound seventy five. Some

(25:52):
debris has the left lane blocked off from that wreck.
That traffic backing into downtown and it's already a twenty
minute delay.

Speaker 3 (25:59):
Chuck Ingramont the talk station.

Speaker 4 (26:05):
Just shy a five forty fifty five KO City talk station,
A very happy Tuesday to you, going to go to
the phone five went three seven four nine fifty two
to three talk Pete, thanks for holding over the break,
Welcome to the show, Thanks Brian.

Speaker 5 (26:18):
And back on that Pennsylvania voting thing. What really comical,
ironic is about the whole thing is that there's like
a twenty thousand vote gap between the leader and even
if they counted all them three times, it wouldn't have
any impact on it.

Speaker 8 (26:37):
So, I mean, I don't understand why they're even thinking
about doing this.

Speaker 4 (26:40):
It is it is beyond stupid. At just another further point,
you make, yes, why are they bothering it's mind blowing
spending taxpayer dollars to fight a lawsuit that should never
have had to be brought because, of course, the law
was very clear that these votes could not be and
should not be counted.

Speaker 1 (26:58):
Period.

Speaker 4 (26:59):
End of story and then add on top of it,
we're only talking about four or five hundred votes that
were at issue here, which would not have changed the
outcome of the race.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
It's crazy, man.

Speaker 4 (27:09):
I guess the only thing you can think of is
that maybe beyond Bucks County, which was the main county
that was being so obviously a law breaking, is that
maybe if on some weird theory they were ultimately able
to prevail, which clearly was not the case, that more
counties would have dug up and looked for more votes
that weren't previously counted because all those other counties were

(27:30):
actually following the law that somehow the race could change,
but clearly predicated on violation of the law. It was
pointless and a dumb exercise. It wouldn't change the outcome.
Good point, Pete. Appreciate you making it New Hampshire, Gary,
welcome back. My friend's always good to hear from you.

Speaker 8 (27:46):
Oh, good to hear it from you, Brian. Hey. But
I think what we're looking here is we're looking at
saul Lynski rules for thee and not for me, as
long as there's no consequences to breaking the law, and
they basically flaunted that.

Speaker 3 (28:02):
They're breaking the wall.

Speaker 8 (28:03):
Oh yeah, you know, they're not going to pay any
consequences for it. So I would just if if if
they're Solominsky, just keep cheating, because I know that there
were six other counties that were doing that were doing
the exact same thing that were surrounding counties and that
uh in that deal. So what they were also looking

(28:25):
for is they were looking for enough votes to cause
and trigger recount. They didn't have enough for it, so.

Speaker 4 (28:34):
It was they had they had to get within point
five percent of each other to trigger the automatic recount.
So yeah, to Bill's point, maybe that's exactly what they
were trying to do. Just hone that down to where
they could go through an entire recount and then engage
in more Lalla's shenanigans to change the outcome of the vote.

Speaker 8 (28:52):
Yep. And and but you know, same shame on their
supreme courts. They should have fraud marched and walked those
people out and handcuffs because now there's no consequences, they're
going to go ahead and cheat anyhow, nothing's going to
stop them.

Speaker 4 (29:09):
Well, it may not be over now. If you if
you turn to Minnesota, there's a man who has served
as the head election judge there who has been charged
with two phony accounts for allegedly letting eleven people vote
who were not registered. And that is a violation of
Minnesota law, and it could be a violation of Pennsylvania law.

(29:31):
I don't know that would be step two. Will the
a prosecuting attorney or their attorney general go after this,
these two lawless officials in Pennsylvania for election violations, So
that has potential legs. I don't know Pennsylvania law enough.
They don't even try to suggest I dabble in Pennsylvania law.

Speaker 8 (29:53):
But I did see on X that I think it
was Matt Gates who posted, you know, freeze all your
documents and be expecting these people will go to jail.
But you know he's federal. I don't know if he
can dabble in state and county things, but you know

(30:13):
I did see that on.

Speaker 11 (30:16):
X.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (30:17):
I think this is strictly an issue of state law
and the interpretation of state laws. So we'll see. Keep
your popcorn out and amster Gary. I don't know that
it's over yet, but the illustration that has been presented
before the American people of the outright lawless position of
these election officials. I mean, I can read this woman's
quote again. Quote. I think we all know that precedent

(30:40):
by a court doesn't matter any more in this country,
and people violate laws anytime they want.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
So.

Speaker 4 (30:47):
For me, if I violate this law, it is because
I want a court to pay attention to it. Close
quote there, you are unbelievable, unbelievable or maybe sadly believable
these days. Real quick, I can get one stack of
stupid story in and thank you, Z Drecker looking at

(31:07):
the headline. Go to Sunbury, Pennsylvania, where a man allegedly
pleasuring himself in his neighbor's property in view of her camera.
Benjamin Santos Junior making Dad Happy fifty six, allegedly intoxicated
when he went to his neighbor's property two thirty in
the morning in September, according to Officer Dara Golden Kiski

(31:29):
of the Sunbury Police Department. Neighbor told police Santos went
in front of an outside camera on her property and
began the act of pleasuring himself. Next day, the neighbor
saw Santos outside and asked him what happened as she
pointed to her camera Santos had a smirk on his face,
and he told her he was very drunk and quote

(31:49):
my bad clothes quote. He was charged with misdemeanors of
open lewdness, loitering, prowling at night, and summary harassment. Preliminary
hearing set for early December five forty five. I think
he was finished. I think that's probably why he went home.
See five cars, the more stupid coming up or phone calls.

about the aforementioned Pennsylvania idiots continuing to count votes even
if the Supreme Court said they had to stop doing that.

(33:36):
Deep dive with Daniel Davis with the latest on Russia
and Ukraine as well.

Speaker 1 (33:40):
That'll be in the eight o'clock hour.

Speaker 4 (33:41):
In the meantime, back over the stack of stupid in
lieu phone calls, we have a woman from Georgia, who's
been arrested and accused of allegedly endangering her son because
the ten year old was allowed to walk less than
a mile away.

Speaker 1 (33:56):
From his home. Dear, what the hell.

Speaker 4 (34:00):
Forty one year old Britney Patterson taken another had taken
another son to a doctor? Happened October thirtieth, and she
became mildly annoyed but not at all worried when the
Fannin County Sheriff's Department called to say her son, Soren,
had wandered from their home in Mineral Bluff and into town.
Speaking with local NBC news there in an interview that

(34:21):
aired last week, is it's not super dangerous or even
dangerous at all stretch of a road. I wasn't terrified
for him or scared for his safety. Deputies drove the child, Soren,
who's now eleven, home, and that was that was at
least that's what she thought. A few hours later, though,
the Sheriff's department went back to her home near the
South North Carolina border, where Patterson was handcuffed, arrested, and

(34:46):
booked on suspicion of reckless conduct, and forced to post
a five hundred dollars bail. She said, quote it was
anger and frustration, of course, because my children were having
to witness that all. They asked me to put my
hand behind my back and all that stuff, and I
realized what was going on. Authorities offered to drop off
drop the charge of Patterson's signs of form that outlines

(35:09):
a safety plan guaranteeing that her children would always be
under a watchful eye. According to she and her lawyer,
she refused to sign it, said she'll contest. The charge
carries up to a year behind bars, saying this is
not right. I did nothing wrong. I'm going to fight

(35:30):
for that, and good for her. Her lawyer, guy named
David de Lucas, sort of rhetorically asked whether mothers and
fathers now have to know the precise locations of their
children at all times? Are all parents going to have
to put GPS on their child? The parents get to
decide for their children unless it's unreasonably dangerous. Representative for
the district Attorney in Fanning County he was not immediately

(35:53):
available for comment when reached out of course he wasn't.
It was like an idiot for having to prosecute the case.
I remember when we were little my sister and I.
We used to walk from the family house down to
it was King Quick back in the days. You guys
remember the Quick brothers. It was probably a good mile
and a half on Devil's backbone back when Devil's backbone.

(36:15):
I don't know if they have sidewalks back then. Very
rural road back in the day, but we were allowed
to go on long walks unsupervised. That's been children where
children had a good time and really we were able
to experience life without.

Speaker 2 (36:32):
There.

Speaker 4 (36:32):
We are there, We are good to Dallas were a
couple is taking the owners of a former bar to court.
They left the bar with third degree burns after ordering
what is described as a fiery cocktail which they claim exploded.
What hmm, Abby Hans Briscoe and Dustin Johnson see one

(36:57):
of them then hands. Brisko said they had to shave
my head and hospital to get access to the ear
and the scalp where it was burned. Now they live
in discomfort recovering from first, second and third degree burns
of the upper body because of again a fiery drink
order from the former Twisted Trick on Cedar Springs Road.
I guess don't look for it anymore.

Speaker 1 (37:18):
She has.

Speaker 4 (37:18):
The skin was falling off my arms, assuing the owners
of the bar. In the lawsuit filed in Dallas County,
the pair city stopped to have a drink. Johnson ordered
the Flaming Pineapple, which is described as an ever Clear cocktail,
not aware it came with a garnish of lime on fire,
Johnson said when it was presented to us, I was like, Oh, cute, cool,

(37:41):
it's on fire. They took a picture of it before
the bartender added more ever Clear to the drink and
lit the drink itself with a torch. He goes, hell,
it's doing because they're idiots, as Brisko said, He goes
a give it a little more, and he lit the
ever Clear on fire in our direction and the drink ignited,
shattering the glass and spreading fire on the couple. According

(38:04):
to lawsuit, they say it was a moment of panic,
pain and terror. They felt like hours as they tried
to put the flames out. Hans Risco's injuries described as
the worst. She said, they literally had to cut my
brawl off me because it was melted onto my skin.
They were taken to the hospital burning in it. Johnson's
beard saved some of his skin, but he was hospitalized

(38:27):
for several days. Hans Brisco was in there for seven weeks,
received three skin grafts and got sepsis, which is impacting
her ability to walk. Twisted Trick, as noted before, has
since closed down. Their attorneys responded to the lawsuit, denying
the allegations and saying they failed to provide facts to

(38:49):
support them. Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission doesn't have any rules
or regulation about serving drinks on fire.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
Whatever.

So dry you own conclusions on that. It's going to

seven thirty eighth five. Fast forward two hours The Inside
Scoop with Bright Bart News every Tuesday at eight o five. Today,
Nick gilbertson the Capitol Hill Reporter on something I was

(40:15):
on an absolute tear on the five o'clock hour, that
Pennsylvania was continuing to count ballots that were not valid.

Speaker 1 (40:25):
Were not valid.

Speaker 4 (40:26):
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania had previously ruled on the
very issue, and they continued to count them in spite
of the Supreme Court's ruling. In fact, an outright defiance
of the ruling. Just didn't mind blowing to me. And anyhow, Yeah,
Donald Trump's the one who's a threat to democracy. Anyhow,

(40:48):
we'll get his take on that at eight oh five
and then the Deep Dive with Daniel Davis. And I'm
really looking forward to talking to retired Lieutenant Colonel Daniel
Davis because of the deteriorating situation, at least it appears
to me to be interior rating in the situation between
Russia Ukraine that war. And also an update on things
going on in Israel. I like to hear from you

(41:08):
if you care to call, so feel free to do so.
Five one, three, seven, four nine fifty five hundred, eight
hundred and eighty two to three talk pound five point
fifty on AT and T phones and don't forget fifty
five care Sea dot com for the podcast You can't
listen live the Smith event yesterday, Boy, he was on
an absolute tear about illegal immigration, most notably the Lake
and Riley case. I mean, he is the father of,

(41:30):
you know, a young his young daughter, and he thinks
about her when you hear about you know, evil murderous
illegal immigrants raping and murdering people. Of course, anybody would
be concerned about that. They found out this morning Sanctuary Cities.
Now there's just been a recent release. Immigrations and Customs

(41:51):
Enforcement over the past three and a half years have
announced that at least according to the number of crunching
by the Center for Immigration Studies, sanctuary cities protected more
than twenty two thousand deportable criminal illegal immigrants. ICE placed
detainers on these illegal immigrants who are criminals in order

(42:15):
to deport them, but the sanctuary jurisdiction thirteen states and
said they released them back into the community. Yeah, it's okay,
We'll just let them go. CIS director Jessica Vaughn said,
each declined detainer represents a deportable criminal alien who was
released back into the community and given the opportunity to
pray on more victims, more Lake and rileys. Is the

(42:37):
bottom line. God knows how many people were impacted by that,
and that's just the ones in that one report. But
as I always often point out, I do enjoy standing
on the shoulders of giants, particularly when there's no way
I Brian Thomas could articulate things as clearly as someone
like Wow today Gerard Baker actually op ed from yesterday, brilliance.

(43:03):
And there's a lot of optimism floating around out there,
at least among more conservative minded individuals, libertarian minded individuals
like myself. Since Donald Trump has saved us from more
of the well, the lawlessness and the insanity that has
been going on since the Obama administration. Four more years

(43:23):
of Trump may make America normal again. Subtitled our Age
of bizarre ideological conceit climate change alarmism, transgender ideology, immigration
extremism is reminiscent of the Emperor's New Clothes. And that's
what I blombed onto because he makes a really great
point on this, because I feel, as often I do

(43:45):
on the Morning Show, I feel like the child who
did point out the emperor has no clothes and your
Ard Baker rights. Donald Trump's supporters and critics alike have
called his election victory of revolution. He himself once promised
to mark a retribution to me, it is more the
feeling of a revelation. It's an Emperor's new clothes event

(44:08):
for America and perhaps for the rest of the West too,
an overdue recognition and repudiation of the regime of oppressive
insanities we have been subjected to for a decade or more.
We're all familiar with the details of Hans Christian Andersen's
moral parable. The unscrupulous tailors who trick a vain monarch

(44:28):
into believing their empty work as a fashion innovation, the
ambitious courtiers who go along with the fiction and vie
with each other for the king's favor, the crowds who
silence their shock at the emperor's nudity for fear of
standing out from the rest. And the small boy who
alone calls out the truth in the charade. For a

(44:50):
decade or more, yes, even when Republicans have been nominally
in control, we have been led by peddlers of a
set of ideas that have clothed our institutions and the
country in social and political doctrines, fake claims, and strictures
that have inflicted untold harms. The fancy new items of

(45:11):
invisible attire that our nation's rulers have made us wear
for too long include these. The idea that people who
have stolen into this country illegally should be showered with
all the rights and benefits of citizens, that it is
immoral to deny them those rights, and that they should
instead be treated as victims of persecution and given sanctuary

(45:35):
in our crowded and fiscally strained cities. The idea that
a nation that sits atop one of the greatest reservoirs
of natural energy resources on Earth should forcibly restrain itself
from exploiting them to save the planet on the basis
of a politicized science, while other countries are free to

(45:58):
do more damage to the globe environment. The idea that
after a century and a half of progress in expiating
America's original sin of racism and making the country more equal,
we are suddenly obliged to believe that America is as
oppressive as it was in sixteen nineteen, and that the

(46:20):
best way to right the past wrong of treating people
based on the color of their skin is to treat
people based on the color of their skin. The idea
that children should, without parental consultation or consent, be free
to choose their gender, be assisted by the state in

(46:41):
committing acts of self mutilation to do so, and all
on the understanding that we have repealed millennia of science
and just discovered that there is no such thing as
biological sex. The idea that democracy and freedom are best
protected by denying people the right to express certain views

(47:02):
that the authorities deem misinformation, and by weaponizing the law
against political opponents lest they weaponize the law for political purposes.
Ambitious elites in business and civil society went along with
the fictions. Political on all sides, including Republicans, decline or politicians,

(47:23):
or rather on all sides, including Republicans, declined to dissent
for fear of being called out. It took command with
some of the instincts of a child a political engineer,
Angenneux lacking the sophistication to participate in the sham, to
the call of the whole thing out for what it was.
Of course, he's referring to Donald Trump. I'm going to

(47:46):
fast forward a little bit here, but here's what I,
Gerard Baker, am optimistic about. Four years from now. There's
a good chance that the nonsense we have had to
endure will be buried, that important things will have become
normal again. It will become normal to tell people who

(48:09):
have no right to be here that they must leave,
and that in the process, people around the world will
have been made to understand that they don't have an
automatic right to live in the freest and most prosperous
country on Earth. It will become normal for the nation
to exploit its enormous energy advantages for its own economic

(48:31):
benefit and know that the planet won't explode as a result.
It will become normal again for children to be helped
to respond to the inevitable strains and traumas of growing up,
not by having their genitals cut out, but by receiving
loving guidance and care from family and society. That people

(48:51):
will be judged on the basis of their talents and ability,
not on their claims of oppression by ancestors six generations
in the past. And it will not be automatically assumed
that because you are white, you should be punished for
your supposed persecution of others. It will become normal to
be able to say what you think on university campuses,

(49:15):
in the media, on technology platforms. However unpalatable, some people
may find it, and that, to my mind, is progress.
Gerard Baker ip ed November eighteenth, brilliant and I can
only pray that his predictions.

for a moment. I'd love to take your call, but
I gotta take a quick break here and highly recommend
as I have done for the almost full eighteen years
I've been on radio, and my father proudly did prior
to me recommend USA insulation the ultimate no brainer right now,

(50:00):
interest free ninety nine dollars a month. Steve brought it back.
I think that's his most popular offer. Ninety nine dollars
a month interest free, Take advantage of it. Get your
twelve hundred dollars energy tax credit next year when you're
doing your taxes. That is a heapload of money off
the top, and it pays for itself. You might save
more than ninety nine bucks a month interest free. You'll
continue to save after it's paid off. It'll make your

(50:21):
home more valuable, probably keep every single type of critter out,
which is just an added benefit. The primary reasons savings
on energy which I mentioned, and of course the immediately
noticeable improvement and comfort in your home. Wintertime fast approaching,
you're going to be dealing with that very very expensive,
always increasing energy bill, So save lots of money. Hell,

(50:43):
you can save up the fifty percent of your utility
bills cost. Insulating your home obviously pays for itself. These
savings generally speaking, regardless of the amount guaranteed from USA,
and the comfort also guaranteed, so get in touch with them.
It's a free inspection. You may be under insulated, you
may have no in in the exterior walls of your home,
so call and get the free inspection and find out

(51:04):
what it's going to cost you and then take them
up on it. Whether this amazing offer is going on.

Six twenty one on a Tuesday, and a happy one
to you, Brian Thomas. Welcoming phone call. Is gonna go
to the phones five one, three, seven, four nine fifty
five eight hundred eighty two to three talk Jim, thanks
for calling this morning.

Speaker 1 (52:36):
Welcome to the program.

Speaker 8 (52:38):
Good morning, Brian. That's this is ridiculous. What they're trying
to you to Paris. My good good thing. My parents
and a couple of my buddy's parents are around because
we were allowed to ride our bicycles five miles up
US sixty eight for no apparent reason. We can pind
us better to do. And another buddy, you should ride

(52:59):
your bicycle ups eight about a mile and a half
to his dance gas station, and that was over down
nasty dip and around the nasty curve. You know we survived, and.

Speaker 1 (53:09):
Crazy, yes you did.

Speaker 4 (53:11):
And I have friends and I was there to witness
the whole thing. Liberated big wheels from people's front yards
and rode them down Anderson Ferry from Palisades with speeds
up to fifty plus miles an hour. And a couple
of those guys probably are listening right now and chuckling
to themselves. They survived. And one guy lost most of

(53:35):
his cowboy boots. He had brand new cowboy boots and
he was tried to use them as brakes because of course,
remember the big wheel break. It was that little metal
rod that sort of rubbed against the hollow plastic wheel
in the back. Well, clearly that doesn't work once you
exceed about four miles an hour. So he used his
cowboy boot heels, and we were behind him in a
car clocking him, and sparks were flying from his heels

(53:58):
like ten fifteen feet from the nails in the eels
behind him, and his feet almost caught on fire. As
some of the most comical things I remember now. He
certainly could have died. I'm not suggesting anyone should or
should ever have done that. But you know, those were
different times. Back then, kids were kids. Kids were left
to do stupid things. Some of them probably died doing it.

(54:20):
And as I say that, I think about people who
hop aboard moving subway cars and subway surf and do
idiot things like that as well. So you know, parental
supervision is a good thing. But walking a mile he's
referring to his story from the stack of stupid. A
mom was charged with child in endangerment for allowing her

(54:41):
child for with a child walking less than one mile
from their home into the neighboring town. Bizarre, absolutely anyhow,
also bizarre as I'm relishing in the idea of this
doge thing.

Speaker 1 (54:55):
I know, I've been on a.

Speaker 4 (54:56):
Tear about this Department of Governmental Efficiency, but they toted
at Center Ran Paul and he always issues his Festivus
Government Waste Report through some of the ridiculous things that
the US government chooses to spend our labor on. As
I always emphasize, when they spend money, they're spending your labor.
You are working, you are obligated. In spite of us,

(55:19):
some people who believe the law doesn't matter You've got
to pay taxes or you can be arrested and charged.
So work, work, so we can tax you and take
your money and buy stupid, stupid things. So one of
the studies highlighted both Paul and this new Department of
Governmental Efficiency involves seeing what makes a sunfish more aggressive?

(55:46):
Gin or tequila? You worked for that total one hundred grand.
How about one million dollars that you worked for and
labored over to fund a study to see if cocaine
makes Japanese quail more sexually promiscuous. You worked for and

(56:10):
paid for seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars to determine
if Neil Armstrong's line was actually one small step for
man or one small step for a man. And actually
that study ended up being inconclusive. I think he was

(56:32):
actually supposed to say one small step for a man,
but he skipped the a part. But it doesn't matter now,
does it. He stepped on the moon. Doge clip shared
by US also featured Senator Paul noting that two million
dollars you worked for was spent on the construction of
a kelp and shellfish nursery in Maine. Senator Ran Paul

(56:55):
pointed out one point five million dollars was spent to
encourage video gaming in New York. He said, we might
be better off spending one point five million to discourage
kids from playing video games. Good point, Senator, three hundred
and eighty eight thousand dollars for Columbia University, two hundred
and forty nine thousand dollars for the Baltimore Symphony. He said,
give money to all the symphonies. And then of course

(57:20):
you go back to Senator of vive a grammar or
Senator it's a VVA grammar storry over the weekend talking
about getting rid of a lot of these large, bloated
and ridiculously funded organizations in government, which again I applaud
the effort. I will take whatever we get. If it's
two trillion dollars, wonderful. If it's a billion, time well spent.

(57:41):
Six twenty six, coming up at six twenty seven, Feel
free to call. Got local stories to talk about other
than phone calls, But I prefer talking to you five one, three, seven,
four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eight to three.
Talk foreign exchange. You need to call them get your
car fixed for less money. Westchester location is where we go,
my wife and I and probably my though she's got
herself a replacement car since the deer killed her Mazda,

(58:06):
but she did get an imported car hasn't had to
have it service yet, thank god. She's only handed for
about a month and a half. But when it comes
time to service, I know she's going to go to
Foreign Exchange because she needs to save money like all people,
young people certainly more importantly. But I love saving money.
I don't like spending it if I don't have to.
And I know I get outstanding service by an ASE
certified Master technician on my car, and I don't pay

(58:28):
as much as the dealership would charge. And I know
that for a fact I use my oil change is
a great illustration of it. So a couple hundred dollars
savings on an oil change every single time my car
is still under warranty. That's the difference between a dealer
and the independent Foreign exchange.

Speaker 1 (58:43):
The cost.

Speaker 4 (58:44):
So you get the technicians that are it's a BOSS
certified business. They know what they're doing. You leave with
a full warranty on parts and service and more money
in your pocket. There is no downside to this, so

local stories suburban Cincinni High school principal being investigated for
insubordination after he led a former student who was experiencing
homelessness attend school after the student was unenrolled. Madeline Mitchell
from the Choir reporting on this one. Robert Burnside, principal
Lakota East High School, Liberty Township, during a predisciplinary hearing,

(01:01:23):
district administrators asked Burnside about his relationship with the student
experiencing homelessness, who was withdrawn from the district this school year.
Questions obtained by the enquire through the Ohio Public Records
Act request raised concerned about how the student was able
to receive lunches at the school and what might happen
if the student was ever hurt on school grounds. One

(01:01:45):
of the questions, do you consider the liability of this
since he was unenrolled or did you consider he declined
to comment at the time placed on administrative leaving no
member first pending the conclusion of an investigation. Following week,
Superintendent Ashley. Whitley alerted district families about Burnside's absence, since
said the district had been investigating a concern that was

(01:02:07):
brought to their attention. The district had anticipated having a
resolution sooner, according to what Whitley wrote in the statement.
District didn't comment further on the situation, but said other
Lakota East administrators had been overseeing daily operations since he
Well has been absent. Burnside led Lakota East High School
since twenty twenty one. Previously served as principal at New

(01:02:27):
Richmond High School and before that worked at Lakota as
an English teacher and as an administrator at Lakota East
Freshman School. I also spent time as an assistant principal
at King's High School. According to the resume, Burnside accused
him in subordination, willfully violating the school board's policy for
student attendance, and putting himself and the district in a
potentially liable position that accorded a letter from Rob Kramer,

(01:02:50):
executive director of Human Resources for the district. Those charges
listed in a predisciplinary hearing notice the district sent to
Burnside November fifth. District also a list of questions or
asked during the hearing. The predisciplinary hearing, which continually point
to Burnside's relationship with the previous students who experienced homelessness.
Burnside question on how he came to know this student,

(01:03:12):
his relationship to the students' parents, and how the student
received services at the school without being enrolled. Where was
he laying his head at night? How was he getting
to eat the east each day? How would teacher have
accounted for him being in their class, take attendance if
he was withdrawn? What would have occurred if he had
gotten in trouble? How would he have been disciplined if

(01:03:33):
he was not a student? The questions go on and on.
He used to remain unpaid administrative leaving definitely until the
investigation's over. During the time, he's going to receive full
pay and benefits, but not allowed on school property. He's
not allowed to attend school district events or communicate with
students or staff. Six point thirty five fifty five care

I'd love to hear from you. In the meantime, feel
free to give cover since you a call, Well, everyone
to do this cover sincey where John Rowlan and the
team at Cover since you will take a look at
what you've got by way of medical insurance and more
than likely come up with a better opportunity for you
in terms of your medical insurance, like better medical coverage,
dollar one coverage without having to dip down deep in

(01:04:16):
your pocket to just get plain old regular medical checkups
and things like that, all for less money. You choose
your doctors, you choose your hospitals. It's thirty to sixty
percent lower costs than Obamacare. How is that possible? Talk
to John and the team. What you're doing is working
with your own broker. That's Cover. Sincey they're looking out

(01:04:37):
for your best interest. They have access to couple of
one hundred different insurance companies with thousands of insurance policies,
which allows them to tailor a specific package of coverage
just for you. If you're a small business owner, he
can improve your business's bottom line. Ask my friend Jeff,
I think his bottom line was improved by like fifty
thousand dollars and his employees are all ecstatic about the

(01:05:01):
new coverage they're getting, which is superior to what he
had been offering to his team. So cheers, the Jeff
for taking my advice and giving them a call. He's
really happy he listened to me, but I guess he
always listens to me. I appreciate your support, Jeff, and
I'm glad I helped you out and I'm helping my
listeners out by steering you over to Cover since he
it doesn't cost you any money to ask the question,
is there a better way for me? And probably the

(01:05:23):
best outcome can be John on the team just saying no,

At six forty one if fifty about KRCD talk station,
Happy Tuesday. I've read and gay obviously, big credit to
Gerard Baker with his off ed piece about more years
of Trump may make American normal again. And one of
the points he makes the idea that we can actually exchange,

(01:07:10):
have a free exchange of ideas and not be you know,
accused of spreading misinformation or disinformation. We have a government
that's out there trying to take away our freedom of
speech by virtue of claiming, oh my god, we can't
go having that spread around the internet. Boy, we got
to pull that off Facebook. That post is not a

(01:07:32):
good post. You know, what right does anybody have to
do that?

Speaker 2 (01:07:36):
Now?

Speaker 4 (01:07:36):
I know, if it's a private organization, they have every
right to control what you say and do. They don't
need to abide by the constitution. They're not a government entity.
You can feel free to choose a different employer. But
if you are a government entity, or you are so
affiliated with a government entity that you are part of it,
then yes, you must honor our rights to free speech.

(01:07:57):
The free exchange of ideas is what built this country.
And I say that because here's an example of what
it's like to live in a country without free speech.
Talk with Tech Friday's day Hatter every Friday at six thirty,
and I love those conversations. I mean, he's always warning
us about the problems that are plaguing the Internet and
the people's efforts to do this that and the other thing.

(01:08:18):
You know, how you get hacked and how you avoid it.
But one of the things he quite often mentions is
a virtual private network a VPN. And I have one
I use the Nord VPN, which is one of the
more popular ones, and it's one of the ones Dave recommends.
But a VPN is a system of computers that exists
all around the world, and you log into the VPN,

(01:08:42):
the virtual Private network, and it appears to the rest
of the world that you're operating from a computer that
is elsewhere. So my particular case, it just had it
is at de fault on it. I could pick any
location on the planet. I mean, I could make it
look like I'm my computer activity is coming from Sweden
if I wanted, But for whatever reason, it just defaults

(01:09:03):
to Chicago. I don't care. It's not my computer, it's
not my IP address. It is routed through something else.
And I always laugh about VPNs because in states like
for example, they try to outlaw pornography, like you know,
you must log in and prove that you're an adult
over the age of eighteen and to enter this particular site. Well,
if it doesn't look like I'm in that state, and

(01:09:25):
it appears as though I mean Illinois or someplace else,
then that's a workaround. Now that's not why I have
a VPN, So don't get any ideas, but the point
being we have that right, that opportunity, and it can
help you in many different ways and protect you from
some of the more more nefarious things that are going
out in the world. Go over to Pakistan, which of

(01:09:49):
course is a theocracy. Their top legal cleric declared that
the use of VPNs to browse the Internet Internet is
now against Islami law.

Speaker 1 (01:10:00):
Hold on someday I will lose that.

Speaker 4 (01:10:06):
Cough declaration from the Council of Islamic Ideology announced yesterday
I guess chairman Ragheb Naimi saying that Islamic law allows
the government, the government to prevent actions that lead to
the spread of evil.

Speaker 1 (01:10:26):
Don't you love that?

Speaker 4 (01:10:27):
How would you like to live in a system of
government where the government determines what is evil and what
you can read or cannot read. And the whole point
of VPNs being evil is because it gets lets people
in Pakistan get around the idea that it looks like
they're in Pakistan where they have blocked and limited multiple

(01:10:48):
different Internet sites. They don't want you to get on X,
they don't want you to get on Facebook, they don't
want you to get on fill in the blank. Whatever
they decide is evil. They delete it, don't allow access
to it through their country servers, routers and internet traffic.
But if you get on a VPN and it looks
like you're well in Germany or Cuba or United States,

(01:11:09):
you're not subject to those ridiculous laws. So here's to
the VPN, and here's the people in Pakistan getting to
consume whatever they want and for them to decide what
is truly evil or not, for them to get around
the idea of a theocracy, and says millions of Pakistan
has been using these vpn to access all these websites

(01:11:30):
that have been blocked by the government, most notably.

Speaker 8 (01:11:32):
X and.

Speaker 4 (01:11:41):
Also before the parliamentary elections. And if you think about that,
and our country really worked hard to deprive you of
information about our US elections. Boy, didn't they work hard
to censor your comments about Trump or Kamala Harris or whatever.
That's the scary part, which is why I applaud every

(01:12:01):
Pakistani who's got a VPN and their efforts to consume
whatever content they damn well, please, I don't want to
live in a world where my government decides what's evil
and what is not evil, what I can read and
what I cannot read and know. This is not me
defending pornography in an elementary school library, so I pointed out,

(01:12:21):
and nobody was trying to ban books. They were just
trying to keep them out of a finite supply of
space in an elementary school library.

Speaker 1 (01:12:27):
If you're going to choose between.

Speaker 4 (01:12:30):
A non offensive, non pornographic work to fill the limited
shelf space in a library, why would you want to
have put Heather has two mommies or whatever in that space?
Different Can you go and get Heather has two mommies
at the general public library where they have plenty of space.
Of course you can, but it's available. So is the

Station imaging can be affordable. I was joking about this
the other day after talking to Money Money is Brian James.
Take the money you save by getting your scan, your
mri CT scan, echo cardogram ultrasound at affordable imaging services

(01:13:13):
and go ahead and put in your retirement account because
it'll boost it substantially. When you can save three thousand dollars.
It would normally come out of your pocket, and you
don't have to pay it because you did the smart
thing and exercise your choice when it comes to where
you get your medical care. That's affordable imaging services. Where
that CT scan without a contrast is four hundred and

(01:13:34):
fifty dollars, and yes it includes the board certified radiologist report.
If it requires a contrast, your doctor will order that
six hundred bucks. Over at the hospital that imaging department
may charge you five thousand dollars or more. Again, going
back to my friend Jeff, who's taking a lot of
my advice, saved himself thirty one hundred dollars. That's real

(01:13:55):
money in my world, and that's real money that again
you can apply to Christmas gives, put it in your
timing account. Just go blow it on something you'd find
more fun to spend it on than an image MRI

I love that guy.

Speaker 4 (01:16:29):
He is one outstanding human being, just generally speaking. But
I enjoy our conversations and I think one of the
ones we're going to be talking about this is frightening.

Speaker 8 (01:16:39):
Now.

Speaker 4 (01:16:39):
You may have heard about the plane that got shot
in Haiti, which you know Spirit Airlines. They were at
that tusson Little Vanterira International Airport, Haitian capital Port of
Prince November eleventh. I guess they got shot with a
bunch of I don't know it was ak rounds or
bottom line, it was a hell of bullets hit the plane,

(01:17:02):
resulting in the FAA nancying a ban on all civilian flights.

Speaker 1 (01:17:06):
Lo and behold.

Speaker 4 (01:17:08):
Southwest Airline plane hit by gun fire while preparing to
take off at Dallas love Field Airport in Texas Friday night.
Thankfully no injuries were reported, but the idea that something
like this is happening here is really frightening. Southwest Airline
flight twenty four ninety four, taxing for departure to Indianapolis.

(01:17:28):
A bullet, they say, apparently struck the right side of
the aircraft just under the flight deck. Safely returned to
terminal Dallas love Airport after the gunfire. It's not clear
how many passengers were aboard the plane, but it is
clear that no one was harmed or injured, which is
the really wonderful outcome on this. But you know, on
the heels of the one that happened in Haiti, this

(01:17:50):
is I find this rather disturbing, and unfortunately I don't
have to fly too much since this job does not
require me to travel. However, I go back to the influx,
this mass influx of literally tens of millions of people,
as that occurred over the past, you know, not just
this administration, but in the prior ones with the known

(01:18:11):
god aways, many of whom may very well be terrorist organizations,
with the thirty thousand to fifty thousand Chinese Communist Party,
aged military, aged men that have come into our country,
people from the four corners of the globe, coming into
our country for reasons we don't know, motivations not clear.

(01:18:32):
It's not like they swear them in and put them
under light detector tests when they're when they're crossing over
the southern borders. It's like they stamp them and go
on in, come on in, there's your bus over there.
I worry about this kind of thing terrorist activity, and
you know, being familiar with rifles and firearms generally speaking,
because I'm a huge fan of the Second Amendment and
I like to exercise that right all the time by

(01:18:52):
going to the range. I know what rifles are capable of,
and I know the distances at which you can shoot
a rifle, and yeah, you could easily hit an airport plane.
This is not me advocating for some sort of firearm
crackdown because it's possible, because it's always been possible. But
when's the last time you heard about airplanes being shot?

(01:19:13):
I don't recall it happening before. It may have happened,
I don't know. I know they're targeted with lasers all
the time, and that's just sort of been a more
modern phenomenon because lasers are now you can buy one
for twenty bucks on Amazon. But shooting at airplanes something
to think about safe travels as we approach Thanksgiving six

expert on all things Elvis Presley. So the Power You Seminar,

(01:20:48):
Final one of the Year is going to be a
big fun event that he's gonna do a lecture on
Elvis and answering all the questions, dispelling all the rumors,
as well as followed by a concert. There's going to
be an Elvis in person, Nator in band, and there's
going to be uh I think drinks including adult beverages
and food and all kinds of fun and games. So
two twenty five North and Boulevard's a place to be.
All the details and information already on my blog page

(01:21:11):
fifty five care se dot com, where you can check
out what former Vice Mayor of the City of Cincinnati
Smithman had to say yesterday on his smith event Man
he was on fire in addition to spreading some news
about a good friend of his uh doing some fundraising
for the Stage four I guess Hodgkins lymphoma. It's just

(01:21:32):
really sort of heartbroken over the reality of that. But
illegal immigration and that Lake and Riley case has broken
his heart and he takes it personally, having a daughter
that he thinks about and cares about and worries about
like all good parents do. It's a really enlightening thing,
Christopher had to say. So I encourage you to head
on over there and check that out while you're getting
all the other information. Care starts now. Fundraiser is going on.

(01:21:54):
You can help them out as well. Speaking of things
related to cancer, and let me do paused for a
moment and get quick update because I told a bunch
of people I want on the keto diet two reasons.
One because of cancer. I read a whole lot of
research on it that if you starve your cancer of
sugars and that you can really go a long way

(01:22:16):
into either stopping it in its tracks or maybe even
getting rid of it. Now, I know the science is
out on this, and there's all kinds of different studies
and everything can figure what the hell. I've been encouraged
to lose some weight anyway, so I decided I'm going
to try that. So it's almost a month and I
woke up this morning and I'm almost down fifteen pounds.
And I only say this out loud one because I

(01:22:37):
mentioned it on Facebook with two because I want to
thank my wife. It reminds me of pulp fiction, because
remember when the one character said, you know, well, my
girlfriend's a vegetarian, so I'm basically a vegetarian myself. Well,
when you're on a kyto diet and you are basically
cooking for two, you're essentially stuck with your spouse. Now,
she can eat whatever she wants, but she's been struggling

(01:23:00):
with me. The bigger problem is when you go on
this diet it's actually a name for it, it's called
keto flu, and you feel like crap, Go ahead, cut
all your carbs, and sugars out of your diet. Give
yourself a couple of days and see how you feel.
You'll know exactly how I've been feeling for almost a
month now. So actually this morning I woke up, I

(01:23:20):
actually had more energy, and I hope that part of
this diet is gone because it sucks out loud.

Speaker 1 (01:23:28):
And whether I'm doing myself any good, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:23:31):
But a major major encouragement for me this morning, and
I got on the scale, so hopefully I will reach
my goal now. I mentioned Gerard Baker's comic Calm this morning,
and I've quoted most of it, and the one thing
I wanted to bring up is I move over.

Speaker 1 (01:23:46):
One of the things.

Speaker 4 (01:23:46):
He's so hoping that after four years of this cup
coming Trump presidency, we will have put behind to us
all this lunacy, this insanity. He started out with a
parallel with the Emperor's new clothes, that nobody says anything,
but we all know that there are men and there
are women biological science. But you can't say anything out
loud because somebody's going to ridicule you. So everybody keeps quiet,

(01:24:08):
and it takes some little kid in the audience to
say the emperor has no clothes, and everybody starts cracking
up and going, you know, you're right. Well he parallel,
he draws, is that's Donald Trump. And now we're all
waking up to the reality that we're partying, we're celebrating,
we're rejoicing, and we're pointing out the stupidity of the
policies that have been governing our lives for the past
decade plus. And one of the things he mentions the

(01:24:30):
idea that the nation sits atop one of the greatest
reservoirs of natural energy resources on Earth, and that we
forcibly restrain ourselves from exploiting them to save the planet
on the basis of politicized science, while other countries are
free to do much more damage to the global environment.
This is the point I've been making for years and years.
How come China gets to do it? How come India

(01:24:51):
gets to do it? Go on and on and on,
up and down the road, while the rest of the
Western world kills itself. France, there's another op ed piece
in the journal today just mentioning some of the things
France is moving over to. Basically, the low hanging fruit
of eliminating particulate from the environment. That's all been dealt with.

(01:25:14):
So now they're pushing more electric vehicles, penalties for driving
older cars, promoting remote work, cut down in commutes, mandating
fewer business trips and vacations abroad, mandating denser housing, restricting
the size and resolution of your computer monitor for the

(01:25:37):
purposes of limiting energy consumptions for televisions and smartphones. Regulating
the temperature of your home maximum temp in the winter
sixty six minimum or minimum temperature in the summer seventy eight,
all via regulations, subsidies, penalties, and taxes. Are the these

(01:26:00):
people nuts? They ask rhetorically, and then over to a
piece by Paul Tice. Now I'm not familiar with Paul Tye.
He's a senior fellow at the National Center for Energy
Analytics and author of The Race to Zero. How esg
investing will creater the global financial system, so you can
get an idea where he is on the whole thing,
same place I am.

Speaker 1 (01:26:21):
But what can Trump do? Two things?

Speaker 4 (01:26:23):
First points out, rather than simply exit the Paris Agreement
via executive order, which is what he did before, only
to have it reversed by Biden, he says, and the
unconstitutional back and forth by submitting the Climate Treaty to
the Senate. It's required of all binding international treaties, including

(01:26:45):
the Paris Agreement in the United Nations Companion's Sustainable Development
Goals for twenty thirty. It requires in this country, under
the law two thirds approval to pass the upper upper Chamber,
and of course Republicans with a fifty three majority, it
won't happen. Just do it, get it shot down, put

(01:27:07):
a shovel, dig a hole.

Speaker 1 (01:27:09):
And bury it.

Speaker 4 (01:27:10):
Second strike the two thousand and nine endangerment finding from
the books. That's initial cap endangerment finding. This ruling, which
he explains devised by the Environmental Protection Agency, compels the
EPA to regulate carbon pollution from greenhouse gases because such
emissions quote endanger both the public health and the public

(01:27:33):
welfare of current and future generations, which has been the
justification for anti fossil fuel bias across all kinds of
government agencies, most notably during this current administration, which is
quickly coming to an end. So, he says, rather than
issuing a new counter finding and letting the courts deal
with it, Trump should urge Congress to pass the legislation

(01:27:55):
that reigns in the EPA by reasserting Congressional authority over
the Clean Air Act, which would be consistent with those
recent Supreme Court decisions ones that I'm in love with,
like West Virginia versus EPA and that Lowerbride Enterprises versus Riamanda,
which found that executive ages can't agencies cannot cannot implement

(01:28:16):
major policy changes without explicit authorization from Congress, and all
these regulations are not explicitly authorized by Congress. This is
that whole idea of reigning in the regular authority of government,
and we've been given the opportunity to do that under
the new Supreme Court rules under the law. So this

(01:28:38):
provides an opportunity for say, hey, hey, hey, you know
what trace greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide.

Speaker 1 (01:28:46):
Hey what you know what?

Speaker 4 (01:28:47):
They're naturally occurring and not particulate pollutants that can be
regulated by the EPA. That is a statement of scientific fact.
Your exhalation is plug that food, methade, and nitrous ox
sine occur in nature.

Speaker 1 (01:29:05):
They're part of the atmosphere that we regularly and normally breathe.

Speaker 4 (01:29:09):
Why are we killing ourselves and ruining our economy to
regulate things that are naturally occurring. Good question. Ask it
out loud to your global warming friends. Just a couple
of quick points.

Speaker 1 (01:29:23):
You mean are they?

Speaker 4 (01:29:23):
They are?

Speaker 1 (01:29:24):
He mates, and I think it's a great idea.

Speaker 3 (01:29:26):
Just fuel for thought.

Speaker 4 (01:29:30):
And maybe an opportunity to bring our economy back, maybe
an opportunity to have lower price gasoline, a lower energy bill.
Imagine that five one, three, seven, four nine fifty five hundred,
eight hundred and eight to two three talk. Feel free
to call. Got any many callers this morning, I'd love
to hear from you. You got a little time before
we get to the bottom of the hour. I'm sure

(01:29:51):
I can fill it given what I'm surrounded by by
way of stories out there in the world. And one
more thing I'm gonna recommend. Prestige Interiors. John Ryan is
a great guy to work with. He does kitchens more
than anybody else I think in history. He's been doing
kitchens more than thirty five years, almost exclusively. And he
is really a great partner in a kitchen and modeling project,
from initial design to final installation. The man has seen

(01:30:14):
it all, tiny tiny kitchens. I remember my mom's galley
kitchen growing up, really small kitchen.

Speaker 1 (01:30:20):
Get out of my kitchen.

Speaker 4 (01:30:21):
I remember my mom screaming that all the time, not
sure that he could improve the size of that kitchen,
but he did. In our house, he was able to
find more space in that what you thought was a limited,
finite amount of space. So's he can work some magic.
And so if you have a small project, like you
just want to replace the countertops and the cabinets, or
you want to got the whole thing and start from
scratch like we did. The man has great ideas and

(01:30:44):
we followed a lot of them and loved everything we did.
He did with our kitchen, and you will too. Better style,
better function, better design.

Speaker 1 (01:30:51):
It's all there.

Speaker 4 (01:30:51):
Aplus is the better business bureau Jonavan with you every
step of the way. You just reach out to him
for everything and he will make it happen. Prestige won

of what he's done. They're not all there, trust me,
but some of the some of the work he's done.

Seven twenty one fifty five kr CD talk station, Happy
Tuesday to you hear about that Elvis uh event coming
up at the bottom of the hour. In the meantime,
if you're a journalist and you get the opportunity to
interview a world leader, a former world leader, or a
soon to be again elected world leader, when you take

(01:32:48):
up the opportunity, regardless which side of the political spectrum
you're on, ask hard questions. If you get the opportunity
to get your foot in the door as a journalist,
isn't it your job to do that? I just this
blows my mind how unbelievablew MSNBC has always been unbelievably
leftist politicized, but apparently Joe Scarborough and Mika Brazinski, the

(01:33:13):
host of The Morning Joe, are getting crap from their
own people for actually meeting with President elect Donald Trump
all over social media and like one cowardice doing exactly
what anti Trump is dooring Tom tim Snyder Warrens on

(01:33:34):
air not to do obey in advance. It's disgusting and
frankly unsurprising, largely disdainful, one said Jennifer Rubin, described as
an MSNBC contributor. I don't even know that the people
over there, I'm barely even familiar with Joe Scarborough, but
called it disgusting on social media. Another MSNBC host, Katie Fang,

(01:34:00):
normalizing Trump is a bad idea, period one, echoing that
Vacatie Fang is right, it's normalization. It's all access barbar streiss,
and journalists don't need access to their subjects to hold
them to account. None of it is believable. The obvious
answer is believable. They are opportunists. Well wait a second,

(01:34:26):
how is this in any way, shape or form a
bad idea? They actually went in there to ask them
some difficult questions, and even I guess Scarborough was prepared
for the for the backlash. How is it a bad
thing for any journalist to take up an opportunity to
ask hard questions of any political figure like this? Hell

(01:34:48):
if I had an opportunity to sit down with Joe Biden,
now I know, I get circular answers, and he would
look off into the distance, you know, like and at
the butterflies that are flying around him that aren't actually there.
Different story. But hell, if I could have had an
op unity to sit down with with Barack Obama, I
certainly would have asked him a lot of difficult questions.
He would have been comfortable with them. He wouldn't even
have entertain an idea of talking with me. I'm surprised

(01:35:08):
Trump even offered them an opportunity to sit down at
mar A Lago. That's actually speaks volumes to Trump, doesn't it.
He doesn't know what he's going to get into with
these leftists. He does know they're probably going to post
some leftist questions. Scarborough said, We're not here to defend
or normalize Donald Trump. We're here to report on him
and hopefully provide you insights that are going to be

(01:35:31):
going to better equip all of us in understanding these
deeply unsettling times. Unsettling for him, perhaps unsettling for his audience,
of course. But don't you think if you are a
left wing nut job out in the world that it
would be interesting to know what your left wing nut
job talking heads are asking the nut job right wing

(01:35:55):
guide that's going to be the next president of the
United States of America. Wouldn't you find that beneficial? This
isn't journalism anymore. I'll give a nod to Scarborough for
doing the for sitting down and asking some questions of him.
That's what journalists are supposed to do. Just the rhetoric
coming from the audience and the fellow NSNBC employees being

(01:36:17):
critical of him taking up that opportunity, it's absolutely mind
blowing to me. Oh well, seven twenty five fifty five

the lining replaced and it works wonderfully. It's beautiful too.

it's actually more than just a seminar. It is a
whole evening of fun and games. Show up live so

(01:40:15):
you can enjoy beer, wine, appetizers and enjoy a live

It's a great have you on today.

Speaker 12 (01:40:25):
Hey, thank you Brian very much.

Speaker 1 (01:40:27):
You've been an Elvis fan your entire life. Apparently understand you.

Speaker 4 (01:40:30):
You actually made a trip to Graceland with your dad
back in the day a few years ago. That was
I suppose.

Speaker 12 (01:40:37):
Yeah, yeah, I've made two trips. One my dad and
I took a road trip from Boston to Graceland in
nineteen ninety and then in two thousand and nine, my
own son and I took a trip from Cincinnati to Graceland.

Speaker 1 (01:40:50):
Oh that's cool, sir.

Speaker 4 (01:40:52):
You know, I've always seen pictures of Graceland, and you know,
most recently, I guess the movie Zombie Land had Graceland
in after the Zombie Apocalar and was all dilapidate and everything.
The one thing that I've been told and I've heard
other people say, and I wanted to get your impression
on that, is that, you know, given how big homes
have gotten over the years, and you look at these

(01:41:13):
twenty thirty forty fifty thousand square foot ridiculous houses out
west and out east, it's it's a lot smaller than
you would think it would be given how historic Graceland is.

Speaker 1 (01:41:25):
Is that your impression?

Speaker 12 (01:41:27):
Yeah, I would say yes, yes. You know, you walk
in and there's a dining room in the left and
a living room in the right, and then you go
through a hallway and then you have a kitchen and
like a bedroom in the back, and then that that
famous jungle room. But I'd agree with you, it doesn't
it doesn't seem like a huge, you know, Hollywood mansion.

Speaker 4 (01:41:45):
Really was he a kind of a humble guy in
his in his real life, you know, and outthstanding the
amazing stage person he put on.

Speaker 1 (01:41:54):
What kind of guy was he?

Speaker 2 (01:41:55):
You know?

Speaker 1 (01:41:55):
Sort of day to day?

Speaker 12 (01:41:58):
Well, if you that's the great thing about the Internet.
It's given you know, all these Elvis obsessed fans with
all of this information you can. You can hear interviews
with all of his friends and the people that performed
with him and acted with him, and you know what
you hear is he was this enormously generous person. I
think like everyone who everyone in the Memphis mafia and

(01:42:19):
people that work for me. You bought them a home
and cars, and he was always giving anonymously. There was
a story that was revealed recently that sometime in the
seventies there were like consecutive Christmases where on Christmas Eve
he could go to the Memphis prison, the jail and
talk to every inmate and see what he could do
for them to help them, you know, whether it was

(01:42:39):
money for their family or whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:42:41):
But he was this really you know, down to earth.

Speaker 12 (01:42:43):
Everyone says he was really down to earth, kind and generous.
But at the same time, what's and I covered this
in the talk. So many people say that he had
this this aura that you could feel electricity, like you
could be in a room and he'd enter the building
and you didn't know he was there. You could physically
feel that he was there and you knew he was there.
He gave off like an energy and electricity that many

(01:43:05):
people talked about so he was. He was very humble,
but I think there was something going on there.

Speaker 1 (01:43:11):
Yeah, no, I understand that.

Speaker 4 (01:43:14):
And I guess one of the things I learned and
I get your reaction on the movie that was made
about him that Tom Hanks was in, But when I
read Bill O'Reilly's Killing the Legends, I came away with
this absolute and I wouldn't say hatred, that's a tough word,
but disdain for Colonel Tom Parker. He worked Elvis Presley

(01:43:35):
to death. I mean you can almost say that literally, right,
And that's.

Speaker 12 (01:43:40):
You know, that's something that I think Elvis, from what
I've heard from you know, and everything's his bodyguard said
and the mesmafia that in the seventies he became aware
that Colonel Parker had the serious gambling problem and that,
you know, Elvis was I think he was doing like
performing one hundred and eighty nights a year in the
in the seventies, and sometimes he'd be two shows, like
in Vegas he shows a night for thirty days straight.

(01:44:01):
So he felt like he was being worked to death.
And it was partly to pay off Colonel Parker's gambling
deaths because he'd lose, you know, a million bucks.

Speaker 4 (01:44:11):
You know, in a moment, how is a guy like Elvis,
with all the money he was made, how popular he was,
all the access to the multitudes and the masses of people,
was he able to be kept in such a confined
space and domineered by so much by Tom Parker that
he didn't get some sort of independent financial advice or
get someone to sort of grab him by the neck

(01:44:32):
and say, dude, do you realize you are being ripped
off and work to death?

Speaker 1 (01:44:37):
For that man's issues.

Speaker 12 (01:44:40):
That I really don't understand, because I know he knew
he was being worked to death.

Speaker 1 (01:44:44):
But on another level, I think.

Speaker 12 (01:44:49):
That Elvis implicitly trusted Colonel Parker because he really, you know,
in the fifties made him so successful. He really attributed
his mega success to to a great extent, to Colonel
Parker's promotional abilities. You know, and I know I've seen
in interviews with Elvis' father he said the same thing, like,

(01:45:09):
you know, you can trust a guy like Colonel Parker's.
I think there was a real naivete. I think they
implicitly trusted Colonel Parker on well financially in terms of
like the deals, right, but I think they're very naive,
you know in terms of like business and finances, and
really weren't fully aware of how much she, you know,

(01:45:29):
Cola Parker was taking from him, you know, financially well.

Speaker 4 (01:45:33):
Speaking of taking obviously muchly. A dramatically different racial environment
existed back in the fifties when you know, he made
his bones in music and became popular, and I think
of a guy like Pat Boone who would sing black
music for a white audience. You know, that was for
the purposely designed so it was acceptable. I know Elvis

(01:45:56):
has been accused of that, of stealing the music of
that belonged to the black culture. Was he aware of
those criticisms during his lifetime or did these come up
later in life?

Speaker 12 (01:46:08):
He was, And well, I don't know for sure, but
I get the sense that he was, because there were
multiple times where you know, he didn't appropriate that music.
He really transformed black rhythm and blues into his own thing,
and that's why it was so popular. You know, it
was something new. And of course you've probably heard when
when they first started playing his records in the South,

(01:46:30):
white listeners thought he thought he was black, So people
thought he was black initially, but he was doing something
different with the music, he was transforming it and making
it his own. But there are multiple interviews in press
conferences that he did where he would say, my music
was really a combination of gospel, rhythm and blues and
country combined. So he always knew that he was borrowing

(01:46:54):
and taking as the basis of his music black gospel
and rhythm and blues.

Speaker 8 (01:46:58):
You know, and transform.

Speaker 12 (01:47:00):
I mean, he didn't do his own thing, but he
always acknowledged that it wasn't you know this appropriation where
he tried to sound like a black performer and claimed
the music as being just his own. He always credited
black performers well.

Speaker 4 (01:47:13):
Get that he started out with gospel. Was Was he
a profoundly religious man himself?

Speaker 8 (01:47:19):
He was?

Speaker 12 (01:47:20):
He was and his his girlfriend Lynda Thompson in the seventies,
he used to talk about how he he would wear
across and a star of David and I forget the
Islamic symbol because he said he didn't want to be
kept out of heaven on the captality. So but he

(01:47:41):
had a he had a trunk of two hundred books
that he would take with him on his tours in
the seventies. He was very really an intellectually. He became
an intellectual and a lot of them were always had
the Bible next to his bed, and a lot of
them were spiritual books. He would read about different faiths,
you know, from all different cultures. He was extremely spiritual.

Speaker 4 (01:48:01):
And one of the things I have to comment on
before we part come to day Michael Mercier. We're just
scratching the surface of his topic, which obviously Elvis Presley.
The event Thursday, six point thirty pm. We got an
early star time. If you're showing up a two twenty
five northn Boulevard, that's when the appetizers and the beer
and wine start flowing. Michael's going to start speaking at seven,
and then at eight o'clock you're going to hear from

(01:48:22):
the sincerely Elvis Tribute band, who's going to be playing
for an hour with all the Elvis music and of
course the Elvis experience and the moves and the as
it's described here in my notes, electric vibes. So it's
gonna be a fun full evening. But back over to
the question I wanted to end on this morning, Michael
with you his film career now some obviously better than others,
and I have seen quite a few Elvis movies. I

(01:48:44):
wouldn't exactly call any of them Academy Award winning material,
but there are some of them that I have a
feeling that Elvis had to be really, really embarrassed to make.
And of course not Viva Las Vegas, because Ann Margaret
was smoking hot in that movie. But clam Bake, I mean,
come on, man, seriously, Michael, you're the biggest Elvis fan

(01:49:07):
on the planet.

Speaker 1 (01:49:08):
You can't defend clam Bake.

Speaker 12 (01:49:11):
No, No, honestly, I think I found all this personally
to be a mediocre actor. I think he had potential, yeah,
but he wasn't like a Rod Steiger, right, He wasn't
a native actor in my opinion. And yes, he was
giving all given all those terrible films, and it frustrated him.
You might have heard this story where Barbara streisand approached

(01:49:31):
him about taking the lead and a star is born
and he wanted to do it. He thought this could
be my big break to get into dramatic films, and
the Colonel Parker demanded too much money and she declined. Oh,
so he gave up the Yeah, he gave up the
film career and said forget it. Hollywood doesn't want me,
and he went back to music, which which was great
in the seventies.

Speaker 1 (01:49:52):
Of course, you know, well that's great, Michael.

Speaker 4 (01:49:54):
It's been a real pleasure having you on to Dan
and it's gonna be a really interesting conversation. You'll do
Q and A at this tonight, will you? Yeah, we're
on Thursday. Yes, Thursday, not tonight. I don't want to Thursday, Thursday, Thursday, Thursday.
The information on my blog page fifty five cars bring
an appetizer. If you're showing up in person for the
six thirty social, you're encourage to bringing appetizer or dessert. Again,

(01:50:15):
they'd be beer and wine flowing. You get an hour's
worth of conversation with Michael, and then you get an
hour's worth of music with the band. Michael has been
a real good I have fun on Thursday. I know
it's going to be a great event. A lot of
people are going to check it out. So have fun
and uh I will probably talk with you again down
the road.

Speaker 12 (01:50:30):

Jack Avident and Jaie Jannetapolitano. Every Wednesday at eight thirty.
We'll see if I can push that Doge Department back

(01:53:36):
at him, since he didn't seem to be a big
fan of it, thinking it was going to be a
giant expansion of government with just one more government department,
and lo behold, it turns out that it's gonna not
be It's gonna be what I suggested. It might be
just basically two guys in a room with no salary,
just taking the scissors or the chainsaws. The case may
be to the size and scope of federal government. So

(01:53:56):
I love when these illustrations of government taxpayer expenditures comes out.
And as again I've always characterized it as this is
your labor as reflected by the decision making of elected
officials or worse, people behind the scenes who are not
accountable to you. So when you're feeding I don't know,

(01:54:19):
quail cocaine to find out if it has some impact.

Speaker 1 (01:54:21):
On their libido or whatever.

Speaker 4 (01:54:23):
It was an interesting story about that this morning that
they were pulling out just as an illustration and dumb
things we spend money on, or they spend money on.
I mean, someone's got to be held accountable. And so
I love this idea that we're going to be able
to reach back in and stop the stupidity in the
name of basically saving ourselves. And after the top of

(01:54:45):
the hour news we're going to be talking get the
inside Scoop with I'm Sorry. The Inside Scoop with Breitbart
Nick Gilbertson on Pennsylvania on counting votes after the Supreme
Court said stop. The audacity of the Pennsylvania election officials
is beyond my.

Speaker 1 (01:55:01):
Comprehension.

Speaker 4 (01:55:04):
Pennsylvania Supreme Court had previously stated and unequivocally that mail
in and absentee ballots that do not comply with the
requirements of the Pennsylvania election codes had a signature requirement. Specifically,
unequivocally had stated in a prior decision they cannot be counted.

(01:55:28):
That's the highest court of the land. This is not
something the US Supreme Court is going to rule on.
This is Pennsylvania law that was done over with stick
a fork in. It don't count the damn ballot. It
doesn't qualify under Pennsylvania law.

Speaker 1 (01:55:39):
And yet they did it anyway.

Speaker 4 (01:55:43):
Bucks County Commissioners Diane Ellis, Marceglia and chair of Robert
Harvey Jr. They wanted to count and moved and actually
voted two to one vote. They took a vote on
this to count four hundred and five miss or undated
mail in ballots. They do not qualify because of being

(01:56:04):
misdated or undated. So off to court, they had to go.
Republicans sued them because Bob Casey was losing and ap
had already called the race for Dave McCormick, Senator Black McCormick,
you can call him that now. And some are speculating
that they were hoping this would happen throughout the state,
that by gathering up four hundred and five here or

(01:56:26):
one thousand there of ballots it did not qualify to
be counted, they could get enough of them to get
a runoff and probably engage in more cheating when they
did a recount, not a runoff, a recount it needs
to be if it zero point five apart or less
than they do an automatic recount.

Speaker 1 (01:56:45):
Now, this is what's so enraging to me.

Speaker 4 (01:56:48):
This Commissioner, Ellis Marceglia, said that she did not value
the court precedent, actually boasting that she was indifferent as
to whether or not she was breaking the law in
her official capacity by ignoring the Supreme Court ruling.

Speaker 1 (01:57:09):
On this subject. Here's what she said.

Speaker 4 (01:57:14):
I think we all know that precedent by a court
doesn't matter anymore in this country, and people violate laws
anytime they want.

Speaker 8 (01:57:22):
So.

Speaker 4 (01:57:22):
For me, if I violate the laws because I want
a court to pay attention to it. Close quote, well, ma'am,
there was nothing in dispute here. The votes did not
qualify to be counted. That's what the law said, That's
what the Supreme Court confirmed when it dealt with this topic.

Speaker 1 (01:57:39):
It's not that long ago.

Speaker 4 (01:57:41):
That's exactly what the Supreme Court came out swinging yesterday
and said. The Court hereby assumes all in caps, assumes
that King's Bench authority over the instant application only to
direct that all respondents, including boards of elections in Buck County,
Montgomery County, and Philadelphia County, shall comply with the prior
ruling of this Court in which we have clarified that

(01:58:02):
mailing and absentee ballots that failed to comply with the
requirements of the Pennsylvania Election Code shall not be counted.
I mean, in the opinion itself, they did bold capitalized
statements shall not be counted. It's like, listen, woman smack
them across the face and sort of verbally or metaphorically,
didn't you read what we said before? And there she

(01:58:25):
is standing up there saying, yeah, I violated the loss.
So what everybody does it? And she was doing it
to try to benefit Democrat Bob Casey. So who's about democracy,
who's about preservation of our republic? Who's about well, just

(01:58:49):
cheating to get what they want? Perfect illustration right here.
We'll continue talking about this after the top of the
air news that we can stick around. We'll be right
back your voice.

Speaker 9 (01:58:57):
Thank you for taking my call.

Speaker 8 (01:59:00):
It gives us all somewhat to think about.

Speaker 1 (01:59:02):
Fifty five KRC the talkstation. This report is sponsored by.

Speaker 4 (01:59:07):
Talkstation eight oh five. On Tuesday, regular listeners know to
be tuned in at this time. It's appointment listening because
we get the inside scoop with bright Bart News joining
us today, Capitol Hill Reporter Nick Gilbertson returns to talk
about what I've been mentioning all morning, the Pennsylvania vote counting,

(01:59:27):
which is in violation of the law.

Speaker 1 (01:59:29):
There.

Speaker 4 (01:59:30):
I just remind my listeners, as I do with the
outset of every inside Scoop segment, Bright Bart Bookmarket, B
R E, I, T B A, RT dot Com. Great
reporting there and of course, notably by Nick Gilbertson, the
Capitol Hill Reporter.

Speaker 1 (01:59:43):
Welcome back. Nick's great to have you on the fifty
five KRC Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (01:59:46):
As always, Hey, Brian, great to be here, Thanks for
having me.

Speaker 3 (01:59:50):
You know, I am a lawyer.

Speaker 4 (01:59:51):
I continue I maintain my law license, although I have
not practiced. This is my eighteenth year in radio concluding it,
so I'm no longer an active practitioner of the law.
I have a profound respect for the law. I understand it.
I understand the constitutional framework, the separation of powers and
the separate but equal branches of government, including the Supreme Court.

(02:00:11):
And that's the federal level. But the states are all
set up the same way. Apparently the people counting the
votes in Pennsylvania, least in a couple of counties, didn't
get the memo. They actively and out loud intentionally violated
the law in trying and continuing to count votes that
did not qualify to be counted under Pennsylvania law. This

(02:00:31):
was mind blowing the defiance that came out of one
of these officials. It doesn't matter anymore, this woman said.
I think we all know that precedent by a court
doesn't matter in this country, and people violate laws anytime
they want. So for me, if I violate the law,
it's because I want a court to pay attention to it.
So say it commissioner Elise Marzilla, a woman named Ellis Margalia.

(02:00:55):
I mean, I couldn't believe my eyes when I was
reading this. Well, and what's your response on all this, Nick,
You've been following it.

Speaker 2 (02:01:05):
Yeah, Brian, I was absolutely shocked when I saw that
board meeting there in Bucks County last week. And yes,
it's a mind you this is the party, by the way,
that screamed about threats of democracy, you know, an election
integrity here for four years after twenty twenty, and now
we have this going on. But yeah, this all comes

(02:01:26):
down to two really a couple types of ballots here
that we're getting talented in Bucks County and other counties
throughout the state in defiance of these Supreme Court rulings
from you know this year and president that was said
that decided, you know, these votes shouldn't count. So the
first type that are in question are these misdated ballots,

(02:01:48):
and you know they're missing signatures or misdated or undated ballots,
and the court had already ruled, you know that you
can't count these. There's no way to you know, verify
these in the state election law. There's really you know,
a wiggle room on this stuff. And you know these people.
They go ahead. Last Tuesday, Elis Marceeglia there and her

(02:02:09):
fellow board member Robert Harvey Jr. They vote two to
one to count the votes even though there's an existing
Supreme Court order. Then on Thursday there's again there's two
types of ballots again that are in question, on provisional
ballots and whether you know if they have to be
signed in two places, one on the affidavit and one
on the on the ballot or on the envelope itself,

(02:02:32):
if they're missing a sat nature in one of those
two places. The court ruled in September you can't count them.
They cannot be counted. And again these people knew this.
On Thursday, their own legal council, the county solicitors, Yeah,
we are advising you not to counties. And they're basically
making the same argument their Republican Council was making. And

(02:02:53):
they go ahead and count them anyway.

Speaker 1 (02:02:55):
And she gives that.

Speaker 2 (02:02:56):
Really extremely defiant statement that shows a lack of lack
of value for precedent and the rule of art and
interpretation of the law. So really interesting and Bran, I'm
not sure if you saw this, but in the decision,
one of these justices they wrote, and it come being
concurring statement to agree with the decision. And he specifically

(02:03:20):
went after these local elections.

Speaker 1 (02:03:22):
Yeah, he said, Justice Justice Robson.

Speaker 2 (02:03:27):
Yes, Kevin Brobson. He goes, I want to quote disabuse
local election officials of the notion that they have the
authority to ignore election code provisions that they believe are
un constitutional. It's just one paragraph, but really straight to
the point. You yeah, you guys don't.

Speaker 8 (02:03:44):
Have this power.

Speaker 4 (02:03:44):
Well, the follow up is almost even more comically. Indeed,
this Court has held the administrative agencies like county boards
of elections lack the authority to declare unconstitutional the very
statutes from which they derive their existence and which they
are charged to enforce.

Speaker 1 (02:04:01):
I mean, you know that was a yeah, I may
be so bold, be slap.

Speaker 4 (02:04:06):
I mean they were all over this, and and the
order itself even has in capitalizations shall comply shall not
be counted. It's like, how hard over the head can
you hit him?

Speaker 5 (02:04:19):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:04:19):
I laughed out loud at that second part there the
statutes from which they derived their existence. Yeah, no, really
really incredible stuff. And it's good to, you know, see
the Supreme Court coming in here. And and coming on
this because of course this all ties into the tight
Senate race there between McCormick and case. Obviously McCormick is won,

(02:04:41):
and Democrats are just looking for any way they can't,
you know, overcome this, this these eighteen seventeen thousand votes
that McCormick leads by.

Speaker 4 (02:04:50):
Well, it is awfully nice of the governor of Pennsylvania
to back the court and their their conclusions that they
had already reached previously in two separate cases. Democrat Governor
Josh Shapiro said, yeah, okay, we need to go ahead
and not count them. Well, thanks buddy, appreciate you. You
following the law yourself. It's as nice support you've given
your own constitution.

Speaker 2 (02:05:12):
Yeah, right, comes out of uh yeah yeah put yeah,
Shapiro joining in it. Of course, it comes after the
court basically ruling right.

Speaker 8 (02:05:21):
He couldn't he couldn't.

Speaker 2 (02:05:22):
Well, things were kind of hanging limbo there. He couldn't
come out and advocate for their rule of law.

Speaker 4 (02:05:27):
But yeah, well, if the county's own judicials are owned advocates,
their own lawyers already told them that they could not
count these votes. I would like to think that the
attorney general the state of Pennsylvania would have echoed the
same sentiments.

Speaker 2 (02:05:40):
Yeah, and well that's the most jarring thing to me too,
is that that and the fact that these people were
warning her that we're going to get sued, You're going
to bring a lawsuit on the county that's going to
cost the taxpayers dollars. To the fact that their counsel
was literally advising against that, and you know she's up
there to use seeing the sport of elections as you know,

(02:06:03):
just however she wants to is just really staggering. It is.

Speaker 4 (02:06:08):
Now someone had asked me this earlier, and I don't
know Pennsylvania very well or law very well at all.
I mean, only would I come across in the news
that makes these types of profound points and very important
national topics. But do you know by any chance, Nick,
and I don't want to put you on the spot.
If you don't know, just say so. Can they be
charged for violating the law and putting the putting the

(02:06:30):
taxpayers through this process? Because I pivot over to Minnesota
and there is a guy served as the head election
judge in Minnesota which has been charged with two felony
counts for letting eleven people vote even though they were
not registered to vote. Do you know if there's a
corollary provision that might hold these two nut jobs accountable
in Pennsylvania.

Speaker 2 (02:06:52):
So I, honestly, I don't know off the top of
my head, Brian, I'm not a lawyer, but I do know.
I mean, I was on a press call yesterday with
the r n T and r n C chairman Michael
Michael Wattley was very adamant that you know, he said,
it's impertive. Quote, it is imperative that these officials who
are engaged in such conduct face serious consequences for their

(02:07:15):
brazen betrayal of the public trust. This is the kind
of conduct that undermines faith and elections. When election officials
pick and choose at the last minute which rules to
follow and which to ignore, it naturally leads voters to
lose trust in the process.

Speaker 1 (02:07:31):
End quote.

Speaker 2 (02:07:31):
So certainly, you know, we we have the r n
C calling for severe consequences for the likes of Ellis
mar Seglia and and and and Harvey Junior. And you know,
if this was going on in other counties to these
board members there. But again, that's that's a little out.

Speaker 4 (02:07:49):
Of my night's okay right now, Well, it's out of
my league too. I wasn't going to answer the question either.
I hadn't seen anything written on that. I just knew
that there was another article out there about this guy
that has been charged for these un letting unre registered
people to vote, obviously in violated and violation of state
law there. But you know, it really boils down to
and I would argue that it really just it surprises

(02:08:12):
me that they would be so bold as to utter
statements like that out loud, even if they held them
dear in their heart. You know, screw the law, it
doesn't matter. I'm counting the votes. You know, this shouldn't
come down to a question of whose ox is being
gorg You know, Democrats shouldn't be cheering that type of
statement from a Democrat elected official, because everyone, as you

(02:08:35):
point out, is going to start questioning the integrity the election. Well,
if they feel that way, if the Republicans are in
charge of all, the Republican's gonna be doing the same
damn thing. Nobody should be doing it, and everyone should
be celebrating the SmackDown that they got from both sides
of the political ledger.

Speaker 2 (02:08:50):
Yeah, and that's that's the major problem too, is if
there's no uniform if everybody decides, every county board decides
to make up their own rules, not follow Supreme Court
precedents in the state and count ballots however they choose,
you really don't have a uniform state elections statewide, you
know what I mean, where you're valuing ballots the exact

(02:09:12):
same way.

Speaker 8 (02:09:14):
And yeah, it's good.

Speaker 2 (02:09:15):
Good on everybody coming out now and admonishing this this woman,
and you know, the right and Republicans have been really
shining a light on this, and it's a I don't
think this this woman ever thought that that those words
when she said them, would turn into a national news story.
But you know, here here we are, and uh yeah,

(02:09:35):
I think I think it's a good lesson for you know,
not she's learning it the hard way, but it's a
good lesson for other you know, county county boards and
these people and at pretty much activists in these positions
that you can't get away with this.

Speaker 1 (02:09:50):
You can't, they can't, No one can.

Speaker 4 (02:09:52):
Republicans can't cheat, They can't send in un you know,
filled out ballots, they can't go around and violate Pennsylvania law, remember, Nick,
And I'm sure you can, because it wasn't that long ago.
We were counting votes in the twenty twenty election during
COVID and Pennsylvania was the most lawless state in the
Union almost. They were just shooting from the hip, changing
laws that were on the books already and ignoring them

(02:10:13):
and extending here. And I mean, to me, it was
just insanity. They were creating on the fly new rules
for voting while the process was going on. You need
legislative action and a loss signed in or a bill
signed in, a law by a governor to change the
election laws. And yet we all let to kind of
have a pass.

Speaker 8 (02:10:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:10:35):
No, Yeah, twenty twenty, twenty twenty was you know, it
was so crazy with COVID and the mail in ballot
and how we kind of really changed the culture of
our election and moved that way. And yeah, it was
so disorganized that it was hard to make heads and
tails of what was going on in Pennsylvania four years ago.

(02:10:57):
And it's you know, this time around. I mean, it's
good to see how things are working out in the court,
in the legal system playing out correctly to this point anyway,
But yeah, it's entirely hypocritical of Democrats as a party

(02:11:18):
to be engaged in this election denialism, especially how everything
they did after twenty twenty. They brought two cases against
the leading Republican presidential candidate months after he announced had
never been in any criminal trouble before, and two of
those cases were over his election challenges in twenty twenty.
Now sentence, they're beyond Pennsylvania in Georgia and other states,

(02:11:40):
of course, but it just goes to show just the
hypocrisy here of Democrats, and you know, Dave mcgri Bob
Casey's election denialism here in pennsylvania's pretty striking. I mean,
I just want to contrast this with Mike Rodgers. He
was a Republican candidate in Michigan and he ran a
really close race with the listious luck and lost by

(02:12:01):
like nineteen twenty thousand votes. Last night, I saw more
than ninety five percent was in. He conceded the moment
the Associated Press called the race, and he was real,
you know, humble and gracious in his defeat. And I
think that just illustrates a little difference here. That's that's
kind of going on here between the two parties that

(02:12:21):
you can see right now.

Speaker 1 (02:12:23):
Yeah, I guess she just did.

Speaker 4 (02:12:24):
These two election officials just didn't get the memo, and Ali,
obviously they were hoping. I think the strategy was, it
was only four hundred and five votes here, would not
have changed the outcome of the election. I think they
were hoping if they gathered enough bits and pieces by
engaging in a violation of law in amongst various counties,
they could close the gap between the two candidates less

(02:12:46):
than point five percent that would result in a recount,
during which time they could cheat again and maybe let
the Democrat win.

Speaker 8 (02:12:54):
That's one dred percent.

Speaker 2 (02:12:55):
Seems to be the strategy to me. You know, it's
four hundred and five votes doesn't much if you're talking
one county, you know, but if you're talking all sixty
seven counties in Pennsylvania, a couple of hundred votes here,
a couple hundred votes there, you know, get them through
and close the gap, get the recount. You know that
that seems to be certainly be the game plan to me.
And it's not just you know that those four hundred

(02:13:16):
and five misdated or or ballots missing or missing dates
altogether in Bucks County, and then there were another one
hundred and twenty five that had the signature issues. So
it's not just uh so, it's as many ballots. It
looks like they're trying to get across the finish line here,
you know, in every as many counties as possible to

(02:13:38):
try and close that gap. That's one hundred percent.

Speaker 4 (02:13:40):
Right, all right, Well, you don't take multiple bytes at
the apple, even if the first bite settled the entire issue.
Tell you what I mean, Nick Gilbertson, It's been a
real pleasure having having back on the fifty five Caressey
Morning Show. He is the Capitol Hill reporter, Bright Bart Bookmarket,
Brightbart dot com or line on the information. They provide
great report every single day. Keep up the great work,

(02:14:02):
Nick and the entire crew at Bite Bar. Best to
heal to all of you, and I'll look forward to
another inside scoop next Tuesday at eight oh five here
on the fifty five Kars Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (02:14:11):
Hey, thanks for having me, Brian, great to be here.

Speaker 1 (02:14:12):
Always a pleasure. Nick. It's a twenty right now. Stick around.

Speaker 4 (02:14:15):
We're going to get a Daniel Davis deep dive and
it is going to be a good one because we're
talking about Russia, Ukraine, and a little tidbit of information
on that Pewtin just announced a revised nuclear doctrine just
today saying that any attack on Russian supported by a
country with nuclear power could be grounds for a nuclear response.

(02:14:38):
We being a nuclear power supporting a country that's not Ukraine,
them shooting into the depths of Russia now justifies in
the hearts and minds of Vladimir Putting and the people
there a nuclear weapon response. Frightening stuff. Eight twenty one
to fifty five KRC Detalk Station. He's coming up next to.

Speaker 14 (02:14:56):
Stick around fifty five KRC.

Speaker 11 (02:15:00):
The holidays mean more travel, more shopping, and more personal
info in more places that could expose you more.

Speaker 4 (02:15:08):
Eight thirty on a Tuesday. It is that time of
week where we do it. Daniel Davis Deep Dive. You
can find his podcast online where we get your podcast.
Daniel Davis, retired Lieutenant Colonel. It is always a pleasure
to have you on the program, and I wish we
had better news to talk about, but let's dive right
on into it. The Russia Ukraine situation, Day one thousand

(02:15:28):
and I look up and see that Vladimir Putin just
signed a revised nuclear doctrine today saying that any attack
on Russia is supported by a country with nuclear power
US could be grounds for a nuclear response. That's frightening stuff.
Daniel Davis, welcome back to the fifty five KRC Morning Show.
It's always a pleasure to having you on the show.

Speaker 11 (02:15:49):
Yeah, well, thanks for having me back, And ordinarily I'd
be a little more cubilant about being on your show.
But goodness gracious, because what you just said is coupled
with the reported first use of long range ATTACKUMS weapons
inside Russia one thousand kilometers deep inside of Russia.

Speaker 1 (02:16:07):
Uh and and those things coming together.

Speaker 11 (02:16:10):
On the one thousandth day of war, in my view,
is the most dangerous place we've been since this thing began,
because in essence, what we have done by Biden allowing
this weapons to be used is to call Putin's bluff.

Speaker 1 (02:16:23):
And so now we have put putin in a position.

Speaker 11 (02:16:26):
Are you gonna make good on your previous threats that
if long range weapons were used you would consider it
a direct participation by the West and the war and
take commensurate action, or is he going to back down?
Is he just gonna make this statement about you know,
change nuclear doctrine and that's it, or is he going
to actually do something. That's the position that we have
put him in right now, and that's a bad, bad

(02:16:46):
place to be in an incredibly irresponsible move on the president.

Speaker 1 (02:16:53):
I have been I have demurred for the most part.

Speaker 11 (02:16:56):
Uh, you know when when Biden has done things over
his nearly four years now in office. But this is
the most egregious and unnecessary risk that he has taken
to date.

Speaker 4 (02:17:05):
Well, and that was going to be the basis of
my initial question to you before Putant and out of
this new announced, this new strategy or this new protocol,
why did Biden approve the use of these longer range
missiles into the interior of RUSS show. Everybody knows that
we're in control of them. Everybody's been paying attention to
the issue, knows they require American soldiers using to operate them.

(02:17:30):
Because of the sophisticated nature of them, as well as
the proprietary and I guess high level security clearance. You
need to be able to connect with the resources that
allow them to work and be accurate. All of it
suggests you know, you think about advisors in Vietnam, Welcome
to advisors in Ukraine. That's what we're doing. That's what
we're there. And since they launched them, clearly we have

(02:17:52):
to do so we have something.

Speaker 2 (02:17:53):
To do with it.

Speaker 11 (02:17:55):
Yeah, and you're specifically talking about military personnel. Yes, the
USR and forces have to be participating.

Speaker 2 (02:18:01):
So I e.

Speaker 11 (02:18:02):
What Putin said turns out to be accurate. And listen,
you asked the reason why why would Biden do this?
The ostensible claim in both the Wall Street Journal and
the Washington Post when this news broke that the permission
had been given, The unnamed senior administration officials said, it's
because of North Korea. It's because they have ten thousand

(02:18:24):
troops there, and this is to send a signal to
pyoon Yang, not to Moscow. Except now, then, these missiles
were not fired around the Coursk area, where the alleged
by the way, still not have been independently confirmed. They're
actually there, but a thousand kilometers in the Bryansk area,
i e. Nowhere close to where the North Korean troops
allegedly are. So that puts to the lie the claim

(02:18:47):
that that's the reason they are being used. So we
have some real difficult questions to answer here, and I
really hope that the media puts President Biden's feet to
the fire on this and says, hey, what are you
trying to do because there is no and I mean
zero military utility and using a handful of long range

(02:19:08):
weapons at this point, nearly three years into the war,
on the one thousandth day, it's not going to make
any difference. And by the way, Secretary of State Austin
on sixth of September expressly stated that it's not going
to make a difference in the war. It won't change
anything on the front lines. We don't have enough missiles.
UK and France don't have enough missiles to have a

(02:19:28):
sustained engagement that it would be required for long range missiles.
You can't do it with a few one offs. As
you saw, most of them got shot down, if not
all of them. And now here we are at a
possible red line crossing. I just I find it hard
that we see that we're staring over the brink of
this moment in history and it does not look good
now the troops and I'm not going to defend North

(02:19:51):
Korea at at any way, shape or form. I'm not
going to defend Russia in their active assault on Ukraine
and they intact them and they them, and I understand
all that, but there's nothing illegal necessarily unless, in fact,
the North Koreans have been on the front lines that
are literally fighting the Ukrainians. And I think there's a
big question mark swirling about that. Maybe you can answer that.

Speaker 4 (02:20:13):
But if there's a whole bunch of North Koreans somewhere
in Russia, what's the big deal unless they actively engage
in war. So you're shooting into the interior of Russia
in order to perhaps go after a target that doesn't
have any military use or purpose. Could possibly if they
started engaging in combat. But you're talking about a finite
amount of missiles with a limited impact in terms of

(02:20:35):
their destructive power, most of which is you pointed out,
got shot down. This seems to be an absolutely pointless gesture.

Speaker 11 (02:20:46):
It is, and I think I've said on some of
the previous episodes that we've been on together that the
Russians a long time ago, when the hi Mar systems
came in, because they have a very similar guidance system, etc.
They're electronic warfare, I had had basically render them meaningless.
You hardly ever hear about a high Mar strike anymore.
Not that we don't give a missiles, it's that they

(02:21:06):
don't hit the target. And the same with the Attackles.
We gave permission on a limited basis for that near
the front some number of months ago. You don't hardly
ever hear anything about Attackles missiles because Russia has figured
out how to deflect or shoot down most of them.
So then the question is why in God's name then,
with something that has very limited even tactical utility, would

(02:21:28):
you want.

Speaker 1 (02:21:28):
To allow something to be fired at a strategic depth.

Speaker 11 (02:21:31):
And this was fired, by the way, at a base
where missiles were a missile depot warehouse. It had nothing
to do with North Korea at all, not even allegedly.
It was a missile depot in Russia and they were
trying to take that out. That's according to the Ukrainian
military that released that this morning. So then you get
back to the again your very pointed question, what is
the point here? What are you trying to accomplish? Because

(02:21:52):
there is nothing of value militarily that you can gain
by this, but there is enormous potential for escalation because
Ussia would respond against us, which is what they've claimed.
That's why I'm saying, I'm so worried because we have
put putin in a place. You don't want to put
a caged bear in a position to either have to
fight or flight, because it's likely he's going to fight.

Speaker 4 (02:22:14):
Yeah, he does seem to be a bit of a
loose canyon that canon, Daniel Davis. Now, as to my
understanding also is that Russia recently entered into a mutual
defense treaty with North Korea, so if one gets attacked,
the other will run to its defense. Are we in
that moment in time as well? Did I read that correctly?

Speaker 11 (02:22:32):
That is correct, They've they had a number of agreements
had already been signed in the military sphere, especially with
coordination and.

Speaker 1 (02:22:41):
Equipment had been coming over.

Speaker 11 (02:22:43):
And you know, my belief, my speculation, because I don't
have any hard facts to back this up with, but
I suspect that North Korea probably said, Hey, let me
send some of my troops over there to get some
combat experience or be trained by your combat experience guys,
so that I can bring the train the trainer kind
of thing and make my whole force better based on

(02:23:03):
modern combat tictiques. That makes some sense, because it doesn't
make any sense that Russia, you know, is a sign
of weakness, which so many in the West want to
characterize this, claiming, oh, we'll see they don't have enough troops. No, right,
they have enough troops. There is no shortage of troops
in Russia. In fact, that number continues to grow. So
this might be something that Kim Jong un wanted in

(02:23:24):
exchange for all these rockets and ammunition that they've been
sending to Russia, not that Putin needs them. So yeah,
if that's what they're trying to do, then then that's
that's the situation, and it could be for North Korea,
not for Russia's benefits.

Speaker 1 (02:23:38):
Well and America.

Speaker 4 (02:23:38):
I believe it is for North Korea's benefit, and ultimately
that comes back to North Korea and South Korea, which
obviously have had their problems of their own since the
end of that or the well, whatever that conflict would
whatever we call that conflict, the Korean War, I think
we loosely refer to it as although there was no declaration,
all right, I don't want to have to move away

(02:23:59):
from from Rush. I saw that the Swedes announced to
their citizen ready to prepare for nuclear war, not as
a very unsettling thing. And also that that internet cable
that was severed just the other day as well, obviously
a revelation of it to me how easy it is
to accomplish such a devastating have something to have such

(02:24:24):
a devastating impact, which really amounts to taking a pair
of pliers and cutting a cable. I know, it's more
complicated than that that just happened the other day with
one of these undersea internet cables. That could happen on
a broader scale and be unbelievably complicating from a global perspective.

Speaker 8 (02:24:40):
It could.

Speaker 11 (02:24:40):
That's been one of the concerns that many people have
been voising for the last couple of years, actually that
if things got bad enough, Russia has the capacity, you know,
as a state with with you know, submarines, that they
can take out in innerity anything that they want to
anywhere and would have a crippling effect economically on the
on the West, certainly the United States, but the West
in general. And by the way, just as a point here,

(02:25:02):
I saw I was perusing the headlines in the Russian
media just before coming on here, and it said that
there is a large scale use of expanded nuclear shelters
being built throughout Russia, and there's this big push on
for that, so they are concerned about that and are
taking actions as well on the Russian side.

Speaker 4 (02:25:22):
Well, I wish I could walk away from this conversation
feel a little more comfortable by global affairs Daniel Davis,
But today I don't think I am, And sadly we're
out of time. I wanted to get to Israel and
what's going on there. We can save that for another day,
and hopefully that day will be next Tuesday when we
do another edition of The Deep Dive with Daniel Davis. Daniel,
it's been a real pleasure, as it always has been

(02:25:42):
to get your knowledge and your expertise on things military,
and we'll do it again next Tuesday, my friend.

Speaker 1 (02:25:48):

He's in a well complex commercial litigation primarily. But we
always love to get Steve Gooden on the program to
talk about things legal. In a conversation we've been having
all morning. Maybe feels like if you listening to the
Morning Show all day, a little bit of beating a
dead horse because I started out of the gate with
it at five o'clock. We just talked about it with
the Bright Parts Insights Scoop, Nick Gilberts and the Capitol

(02:27:41):
Hill Reporter. But Steve Gooden, welcome to the Morning Show
to talk about this unbelievable reality going on in Pennsylvania
with these election board officers that are just in it
out loud, almost joyfully, basically saying it doesn't matter anymore
about the law.

Speaker 8 (02:27:58):
The law.

Speaker 4 (02:27:58):
We violate the law all the time, so screw you guys.
We're going to count these votes even though it violates
the law. In Pennsylvania. The Supreme Corte had to come
back in pennsylv from Pennsylvania and smack him down yet again.
Welcome back, Steve Gooden.

Speaker 8 (02:28:13):
Wait, good morning, Brian, what did you did you Really
they're shaying the quiet part out loud, aren't they? They're
showing the quiet part out loud.

Speaker 4 (02:28:21):
Couldn't believe it. This Commissioner Elis mar Seglia. I think
we all know that precedent by a court doesn't matter
anymore in this country, and people violate laws anytime they
wont so for me, if I violate the law, it's
because I want a court to pay attention to it.

Speaker 1 (02:28:37):
Well, Steve, that's one thing.

Speaker 4 (02:28:39):
If the thing, if the dispute, the underlying issue at hand,
had not been resolved, even like in the distant past.
This is just recently resolved. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court said
explicitly that what they were doing was illegal or what
did not count, and that these ballots that they were
counting were not to be counted, and yet they did

(02:29:02):
it anyway. It's like a breakdown of the system.

Speaker 8 (02:29:06):
Well, marn there's an even scarier part of this. She
got three votes on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court to support
her decision. It was a four to three decision, which
is I think the most remarkable thing here that isn't
being talked about. You're right, I mean, you made this
kind of bizarre argument that there's some language of the
Pennsylvania State Constitution that says there shall be no impediment

(02:29:26):
to voting whatsoever in the state. But of course this
is an act of their legislature. Is it arguably out
of date?

Speaker 9 (02:29:32):
Maybe?

Speaker 8 (02:29:33):
I mean, I think the whole issue is, you know,
whether or not you signed to david or absentee ballot.
It's definitely a holdover from the days when you really
had to get permission to vote absentee, as opposed to
the current kind of no fault absentee reguluen we have.
Back when I was in the Army, you had to
actually apply to vote absentee and explain why you were
not in Ohio to vote, And this is sort of

(02:29:53):
a holdover from that. But all said, she got three votes.
There's a four to three decision to just blatantly go
against the law. It chertually says the law should be changed. Okay,
then go to the legislature and change it, like she's
even acknowledging it exists.

Speaker 1 (02:30:09):
That's what courts are supposed to do.

Speaker 4 (02:30:11):
I mean, this is the whole idea of judicial activism
versus you know, judicial conservatism. Maybe they were pointing out
to the legislative body, which maybe should have happened a
long time ago, back in twenty twenty, when they just
played fast and loose with all the laws in Pennsylvania
that look, you guys can change this, but it is
the legislature's job to do it.

Speaker 1 (02:30:30):
It's not my job.

Speaker 4 (02:30:31):
My job as a judge is to read what this
section says and apply the law accordingly. And the law
requires these signatures, and these states ergo. If they don't
have them, they can't be counted legislative brands.

Speaker 1 (02:30:44):
You're up next.

Speaker 8 (02:30:47):
That's it. I think that's exactly right. And this comes
at a horrible time really, because we really are you know,
we come out of the twenty twenty election when there
there's a lot of folks who didn't believe that the
votes were counted properly, that there were shenanigans at the
state level. I don't believe it was ever proven that
there were a lot of people out there who believe it.
It was really kind of what was the thrust behind

(02:31:08):
the January sixth, you know issues and now here you know,
we get through this election and it seems to be
like this general you know, kind of recovery from that mindset,
like we have a popular vote winner, we have an
electoral vote winner. Would they're not split for once? And
now we have a local elected election official here on
the back end saying, oh, by the way, we don't

(02:31:30):
really follow the law all the time, and we're not
going to hide it. We're going to talk about it,
and I'm going to get three parties in Supreme Court
justices to back me in my state. And that, you know,
that's really bad for the system, bad for the belief
in our electoral system, and just a really really bad
day all the way around. I wish, I wish say
just abide a bit of law and if they had
an issue with it, they could have gone to their

(02:31:50):
state legislature and introduced to bill telling me the Democratic
governor of Pennsylvania, Governor Shapiro is cited with the Republicans
of the Supreme Court. He saying they don't count the ballot.
He seems to pay the winds blowing on.

Speaker 1 (02:32:05):
This, well, he certainly does. And that's the way it
should be.

Speaker 4 (02:32:08):
And the know, the almost the second layer of nefarious,
at least from my standpoint. I don't care that three
of the Supreme Court justices, you know, try to justify this.
But the law says what it says. This was over
four hundred and five votes. Now, the winner of the
race was the Republican and he's he's ahead by much
larger than the point five percent margin that would require

(02:32:30):
a recount. And so my thought was that what this
particular county was doing, and trying to perhaps encourage others
to do, it count the votes that should not be
counted under Pennsylvania law.

Speaker 1 (02:32:40):
And if we can go.

Speaker 4 (02:32:41):
Around in all the various counties and gather up one
hundred here, one hundred there, we might be able to
close that gap, end up with less than point five
percent separation between the two of them, and during a
recount then engage in more Shenanigans and result in a
different outcome of the election.

Speaker 8 (02:32:58):
Well, it's a pretty fair reading of I mean, they're
doing exactly what Trump was accused of doing. You know,
they claimed that Trump, you know, told the Georgia Secretary
of State get me X number of votes to get
me you know, clothes there. And this this feels like
another instant to that kind of Trump's arrangement syndrome where
they're doing what they thought he was doing, which is
finding the votes in a close race. I mean, you're right.

(02:33:19):
I mean I understand that McCormick's up seventeen thousand. You know,
Trump won Pennsylvania pretty handily. He and almost by two points,
like a one point eight points, so it's not unexpected
that the senator on the red ticket would win as well,
you know Casey, Senator Bob Casey even sort of an

(02:33:41):
endangered species there of Pennsylvania, I think for the you know,
since his last term six years ago when he was
last elected. So none of this is really a surprise.
None of this is outside of what the poland was
or what the other national results were. So the idea
that there are these local officials are you know, almost
calling out for other local officials to join the meter
is a really kind of bad day, and I hope

(02:34:04):
it gets the look that's going to get. I understand
that there are some federal lawsuits being filed today on
both sides to try to give another look at this,
so we'll see where that goes.

Speaker 4 (02:34:13):
Well, federal law suits, I mean, will this even be
in is there a federal jurisdiction for this, because this
is state law, and I know the federal laws govern
federal elections, but since the states dictate the terms of
conditions of their own elections, will this ever see the
light of a federal court hearing or I mean it
wouldn't go to the Supreme Court?

Speaker 1 (02:34:33):
Would It's zee?

Speaker 8 (02:34:35):
Yeah, but well believed or not, there is a possibilities
for that. And back in twenty sixteen, he actually had
a federal lawsuit proud here in the Southern District in
Hamilton County before Judge Susan de Lott regarding keeping some
of the polls open. If you recall, and there's kind
of a trivity question now, but there was multiple traffic
accidents on election day in two thousand and six, and

(02:34:57):
they went to court saying, hey, this simple. It's the
federal constitutional right to cast your ballot, not just the
state constitutional right. So if they can fashion some sort
of federal constitutional argument that we are depriving, that the
folks in Pennsylvania are being deprived of their right to
vote because of this requirement, I could see a district

(02:35:19):
court at least giving them a hearing. Whether it goes
anywhere or not. I can't fathom that. But as long
as you kind of complying something to talk about, generally
speaking in the US Constitution about the right to vote,
then yes, you can argue that there's concurrent uri station.
The Act saw that year back in twenty sixteen, and

(02:35:39):
the judge actually did order the polls to stay open
an hour later because of the various traffic accidents on
the highway. So the she ruled whether it could have
impacted the right to cast it out. I think that
decision was never appealed. It didn't really matter in that race.
I mean, Trump lost Hamilton County handily anyway, but had

(02:36:00):
it been a close election, that would have gotten a
lot of scrutiny for the Sixth Circuit.

Speaker 4 (02:36:04):
Well, and real quick here, Steven, I don't put you
on the spot because I don't know if you know
the answer to the question. I certainly don't. But I
saw that there was an election judge charged in Minnesota
with two felony counts because he allegedly let eleven people
vote that were not registered. Do you know if there's
any corollary provision in Pennsylvania where these election officials in

(02:36:26):
defiance of Supreme Court precedent in defiance of the law
of the state allowed this to happen. Nonetheless, that they
might might might be facing some sort of charges.

Speaker 8 (02:36:37):
You know, it's possible. I did quickly look at that.
In Pennsylvania does not have anything as on the point
into ractice in Minnesota law, but they do have a
general kind of dereliction of duty criminal charges you can
file against an elected official. And it's interesting the woman
who made the statement, she's an elected official. I mean
she is not just an elections official. She's actually a

(02:36:59):
count big commissioner there in Bucks County, excuse me, Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
So you know, she has multiple obligations as an elected official.
Ten of blight here in Hamilton County, you know, or
you know, an elected divisional can serve on the board
named by the party fair enough, so she could be

(02:37:21):
removed as a commissioner as well.

Speaker 4 (02:37:22):
All right, Well, we'll keep our popcorn out on the
federal side as well as what happens are on the
state side. But it is resolved and it's over with,
and at least the governor's on board.

Speaker 1 (02:37:30):
With well the law.
