Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:06):
Five o five at thirty five k r C, the
talk station Serious every Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Some say.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
A vacation and that's the way the news goes.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
I guess it is. I hope you have been a
wonderful day. If not, try to make it a wonderful day.
And by sticking around all morning here fifty five kr
CD talk station, listening to the program. Calling in, I'd
love to hear from folks. Maybe you got a subject
you want to talk about. As always, you have an
invitation to do so. Five one, three, seven, four, nine,
fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three
Talk foun five fifty on at and T founds. My

(00:52):
name is Brian Thomas, host of the fifty five KRC
Morning Shown. I'd love to have Joe strecker Way belongs
in the executive producer studio and appreciate what Joe does
to make the show go, because without Joe, the show
don't go. Coming up seven oh five, a reason to
hang out here in the morning show Big Picture with
Jack added and Everyondnesday at seven oh five, the brilliance
of Jack Avid and revealed today subject matter democrats reinventing

(01:15):
themselves again. I'm not quite sure what Jaskona dwell on,
though I've seen a lot of articles on it. The
Democrats going out and spending twenty million dollars to do
a study on outreach to men. It's getting a lot
of comments on social media and commentary from the talking
heads on the news, just you know, kind of segue

(01:38):
into something I wanted to talk about out of the
gate here this morning too. You know, I feel pretty
confident that I know what a men man is and
it's not David Hogg A Joe. Do you think David
hogg Is represents the ultimate mail means?

Speaker 1 (01:57):
Not even close.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
But you know, it's just been a concept that men
have been sort of belittle, demonized and made more effeminine
over the years. Is the rejection of your traditional, you know,
a grunting, stinky, muscular, protecting the family and the women

(02:21):
kind of mindset that we typically have with the American
male to this namby pamby wimpy now makeup wearing male
feminizing men. And I think a lot of men out
there reject that concept. I don't know, but let them
spend their money on what they want to spend on.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
Change.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
Can the Democrats change the hearts and minds of men
and men's perception of themselves and other men by spending
twenty million dollars or no, thank you, Dad, Or maybe
they might want to spend twenty million dollars to focus
on themselves and to look inwardly and be a bit

(03:01):
more introspective about their position about men, and perhaps come
to the realization that what they're trying to foist upon
society and societal norms is the wrong direction and therefore
alienates men and people's traditional perceptions of men. I've made

(03:23):
the point before. I am no macho man by any perspective,
but you know what you mess with my woman, you're
gonna have a I'm going to unleash whatever amount of
hurt I am capable of unleashing. That's one of the
reasons my wife married me. She even said that one time.
And I've told the story before repairing her flat tire
up in Clifton, and this I think homeless guy. I

(03:46):
don't want to presuppose the man was homeless, but he
had the traditional appearance of a stereotypical homeless man, and
he started bothering her. I had a tire iron in
my hand and I told him to walk away a sloan,
and he didn't, and he continued to pester her. So
I came at him with a tire iron. I didn't

(04:08):
have to hit him. I frightened him and he moved
on down the street in a rapid pace. But I
was willing to stand up for her. I'm not quite
sure David Hogg would have reacted the same way. I
really don't like honey, you're on your own. I'm going
to go cower in the corner now. Anyhow, I'm glad
I did that thirty three years of marriage this June. Anyway,

(04:33):
A big picture with Jack Evan and reinventing themselves. We'll
find out together what Jack's referring to Donovan and el
Americans for prosperity on the Big Beautiful Bill, which Elon
Musk is disappointed over it because it doesn't cut and
I share Elon musk concern over that. I just am
so disappointed in the Republicans for not really just going
hammer and tong at cutting the cost of government and

(04:55):
ferreting out fraudwais abuse, and memorializing in legislation, all of
the efforts Doge is committed to and has done so far,
you know, go ahead incorporated into legislation, so some federal
judge can't arbitrarily decide that whatever Doge cut can't be cut.
Congress does have the power of the purse anyway, Donald

(05:19):
and Neil seven thirty. Congressman David Taylor returns to the
program at eighth five. He too, will be talking about
the big beautiful bill Congress needs to enact doage findings
and be responsible with your tax dollars topic number two.
I guess he's on the same page as me, among
other topics with Congressman Taylor eighth five for that and
then Judge Edapolitano punishing freedom topic relating to freedom of

(05:43):
speech and Donald Trump's.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
Efforts to well go after universities.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
I guess because the students on campus are exercising their
right to free speech. So defunding universities for the content
of speech, and I understand the point on that one. Now,
that's one thing to be anti semitic and go after
and torture and prevent Jewish students from getting an education
that they paid for. That's wrong. It should be a

(06:09):
matter of university policy. But if students are protesting, let's
say they're pro Palestine and they follow the rules and
engage in a pro Palestinian protest. Are they not allowed
to do that? I think the short answer with the
First Amendment is Yeah, they're allowed to do that. It's

(06:34):
a question of how far they go in terms of
disrupting activities, taking over campus space, preventing students from studying,
and other violations of what I believe to be typical
university policies. Anyway, pivoting over to free speech, and I
was disappointed the Supreme Court did not hear a place.
They declined to hear a case, this one involving a

(06:55):
Massachusetts student thrown out of school for wearing a sh
shirt that says there are only two genders and then
followed by a shirt that said there are and he
put the words censored. I guess he had tape and
he taped over the only two words that I guess
got him into trouble. It says there there are censored genders.

(07:17):
So in both instances, the Nicholas Nichols Middle School threw
the child, Leam Morrison out of schools dad had to
come pick him up. So mom and Dad, Christopher and
Susan Morrison suit the school sent him both times after
he refused to change shirts, the school, arguing that the

(07:38):
shirts made his classmates feel unsafe. There are only two genders.
Federal judge agreed say the message was demeaning for transgender
students now, just as Clarence Thomas and Samuel Lita both

(07:58):
issued separate descents, are the court should have taken up
the case now. This decision comes about a year after
the first Circuit Court of Appeals argued against Liam and
his parents back in June last year, finding that the
school was justified in asking him to remove the shirt
and sending him home after he refused. He was in
seventh grade, set home with dad may have twenty three

(08:20):
because he wouldn't take the shirt off. Then that's when
he changed the shirt and covered up the only two
with a piece of tape that said censored. He stressed.
Liam did on his behalf stressed that the t shirt
was not directed toward anyone specifically people who are lesbian,
or gay, or transgender or anything like that. And see
that's where the child expressed some confusion, because transgender has

(08:42):
nothing to do with one sexual proclivities or preferences. Transgender
means someone thinks they're a gender that they are not
biologically part of. Has nothing to do with sexuality. A
transgender man meaning a woman who thinks that she is
a guy, might be typically, in least in normal parlance, heterosexual.

(09:04):
A transgender female, a man who believes seemed to be
a woman, may still have well sexual preferences for women.
This is the thing that really irks me when we
have discussions about transgenderism as distinct from lesbians, gays, or
folks that are bisexual, meaning they like to have sex
with both genders.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
I don't know, I mean this.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
It just h that they gloss over those stark distinctions.
Transgenders shouldn't be part of the whole discussion.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
Anyway.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
Student asked the Supreme Court vindicate his free speech rights,
but yesterday the Supreme Court refused. Here this is the
case in spite of the two conservative defense. We should
reaffirm the Bedrock principle that this that a school may
not engage in viewpoint discrimination when it regulates student speech.
That a from Samuel Alito in his descent, joined by

(10:02):
Clarence Thomas. Now, there was a case that back in
the sixties, when the Vietnam War was raging nineteen sixty nine.
It's the Tinker case, upholding the right of public school
students to wear black armbands in protests to the Vietnam War. Nonetheless,
the first Second Court of Appeals, which the Supreme Court
again allowed to stand, ruled against the child, saying the

(10:26):
schools may ban passive speech if messaging is, in the
Court's words, reasonably interpreted to demean anybody's characteristics of personal identity,
and if it's reasonably forecasted to poison the educational atmosphere
due to its serious negative psychological impact leading to substantial disruption.

(10:53):
Those are the words of the court. Now it's you know,
I crunched them. It's not a direct quote, but most
of that's a quote from the court. I mean, I
don't know where that test came from.

Speaker 4 (11:04):
Now.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
In the arguments, the child and the attorneys, of course,
conceded that a school could bar a shirt displaying the
messaging all trans kids are retarded. But see, that's not
what's being said here. That suggests that all trans kids
are suffering from some cognitive impairment, all of them. Ergo,

(11:26):
a trans child in the school could see that and say,
wait a second, I test pretty high on the IQ scale.
I am not retarded. It's demeaning to all trans kids.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
But what is.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Two genders? There are only two genders? Is that not
a widely held fact, a scientifically documented reality, in spite
of what's going on in the mind of a transgender
child that firmly believes that he or she is the
opposite sex biologically speaking, it is a scientific fact that

(12:04):
you're either a man or a woman. You get the
X in the wire, the double X, you have the
twig and berries, or you don't. You can look down
and see for yourself that someone chooses to disregard and
ignore this scientific reality of that. I'm sorry that you know.
You're entitled to your own beliefs, but it doesn't mean

(12:24):
that his shirt is wrong. Can you go around with
an equal mc square T shirt or is that being?
Is that going to insult someone? Okay, if you hadn't
an earth is the Earth is round? Can you wear

(12:46):
that shirt in spite of the fact that there are
some people at idiots they are out there that believe
the earth is flat. I mean, we go down this
road all day. So they're denying him the right to
wear something that is scientific documented and provable because well

(13:06):
poison the educational atmosphere due to its serious negative psychological impact.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
I'm I'm really troubled by this, I really am. But
then again, this whole topic regularly troubles me. I got
that out of my system anyway. Five one, three, seven,
four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eight to
two three talko with Pound five fifty on eighteen and
t funds love to hear from. You have no idea
which direction I'm going to go. We get back but somewhere.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
I'll be right back. Fifty five KRC City doing a Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
Next Wednesday listener lunch, We're going to be at Mad
Tree Brewery, Summitt Park, So if you want to show
up for that. Continuing our micro brewery tour this summer,
I think we'll have one or maybe two more two
exceptions the micro brewery rule as we head on toward
the end of the year. I know we're going to

(14:04):
be going to Jim and Jackson the River. I believe
that's in October. But if you want to join us
next Wednesday, about eleven thirty is a typical meat time.
You can show up a little bit later if you
want got some folks that show up early. I don't
know when they open. Usually it's eleven mad Tree Summit Park. Joe,
you're going to cancel your vacation plans. I know you're
looking forward to your trip to Venezuela this summer.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
I know.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
I'm sorry. I'm just giving you the news because I
don't want anything to happen to you. And it was
you just got your real ID and other than people
who have family members in Venezuela, of all the places
in the entire world you could choose for a travel destination,
why did you go to Venezuela? And in fact, the

(14:49):
United States government is telling every US citizen to actually
avoid traveling to Venezuela. Currently, the highest travel advisory level
four State Department issued a warning not to travel to
Venezuela do to what they call severe risk wrongful detention, torture,
in detention, terrorism, kidnapping, arbitrary enforcement of local laws, crime,

(15:10):
civil unrest, and a poor health infrastructure. There are more
US nationals wrongfully detained in Venezuela than any place.

Speaker 4 (15:21):
In the world.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
There is no US consulate operating in Venezuela. US government
cannot provide routine or emergency consular services to US CITIZ
in Venezuela. You know that's where you usually had if
you run it into travel in a foreign countries, like
to take me to the consulate. Sorry, sucks to be you.
There isn't one. If you're planning to still travel to Venezuela,

(15:46):
the State Department recommends doing the following. Prepare a will
and designate appropriate insurance beneficiaries and power of attorney.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
Well that's a warning sign, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (16:01):
Develop a communication plan with your family or your company
with a what they call proof of life protocol, and
consider hiring a professional security detail.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
Is that in your budget? Joe.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
Travelers should also have been understanding that medical care will
be limited in Venezuela, especially if you're looking for over
the counter medication. Also advised to avoid Venezuela and border
areas with Columbia, Brazil, Guyana because Colombian terrorist groups operate
in those areas. If you choose the travel to Venezuela

(16:41):
and spite all these warnings, horrific they are, the US
will not be able to assist you in recovering loss,
stolen or expired travel documents. So if your passport gets stolen,
sucks to be you. They also advise that any US
citizen still currently in Venezuela get out immediately. I think

(17:04):
that speaks volumes apparently as a travel advisory for Italy,
though it's only a level two Venezuela's level four. And
it's funny because the Italy travel advisory pretty much warns
you about going to places that you probably would want
to see, like tourism sites.

Speaker 1 (17:22):
Five twenty six.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
If you five car, see the talk station, got local
stories coming up, or call me either way you want
to go, be right.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
Back fifty five the talk station right now.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
If you five carsee the talk station five twenty nine
coming up with five thirty Happy Wednesday, five on three
seven fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two three
talk number if you five care Sea dot com. Excellent
conversation with Peter Bronson yesterday. I really enjoyed talking with
Peter about the Well It's the Well It's forty forty

(17:53):
eight eighth or forty eighth anniversary, the Beverly Hill Supper Club,
Fire Joe That's today. So we dove into his book
for Forbidden Fruit, which of course talks about the Northern
Kentucky crime syndicates from the early thirties all the way
through the burning down of the Beverly Hills Supper Club,
which was in fact mass murder. Thoroughly convinced of that,

(18:16):
and so is Peter Bronson and so so many other
people who've looked into that. So much corruption there back
in those days. I can't say whether the corruption exists still,
but wow, from the local police department all the way
up to the Governor's office, Daniel Davis deep dive, no
good news from Ukraine and Russia, and that continues to today.
And of course Bob Price inside Scoop with Bob Price

(18:37):
talking about the border and the changes on the border
and the challenges that we have.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
To deal with still.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
Also Joe put up on the links the nineteen seventy
seven Channel twelve broadcast reporting about the Beverly Hills Supper
Club fire. I guess Channel twelve, as Peter Bronson pointed out,
was the first local news organization that had the remote
broadcasting capabilities back then. My house in the meds. The
world has changed anyway, over to local stories. Nurse taken

(19:10):
into custody last Friday after she allegedly stole fentanyl from
an Ohio hospital. According to Youngstown reporting from w FJM,
thirty five year old Nicolette Gilger facing charges after she
allegedly stole a fentanyl from Saint Joseph's Hospital located in Warren, Ohio,
represented for the Trouble County Prosecutor's Office, speaking with local

(19:31):
news there the Ledsteffs curve between December and twenty four
and January this year. Stationed informed by the Prosecutor's office
that she had been a registered nurse since twenty nineteen.
Taken to the Tremble County Jail on Friday, charged with
five counts of possession of fentanyl related compound, five counts
left theft of drugs, five counts a deception to obtain
dangerous drugs, and five counts of illegal processing of drug documents.

(19:56):
Was released the same day, going to be arraigned at
June eleventh. Mercy Health issued the statement, which of course
was run through legal meaning it really didn't say anything
other than they care about the community. You get the
general gist of something like that. A woman shot in
the back after a bullet entered an apartment in Winton Hill.
Since Ant Police Department said they responded to a shooting

(20:18):
in the fifty six Hindred block at Garden Hill Lane
Back Quarter after eleven pm on Monday. Police on the scene,
speaking with local news WCPO thank you Daniel Goodman for reporting,
said the bullet originated from outside the apartment before hitting
the forty nine year old woman. Since anti Police Lieutenant
Jonathan Cunningham said that the woman was taken to UC's

(20:40):
University of Cincinnati Hospital, condition unknown at this point. Cunningham, though,
said that the shooting was not accidental. Police haven't released
information regarding any potential suspects, and the lieutenant indicated that
the investigation was ongoing. I'm guessing crime stoppers three five
to two thirds. If you have any additional information, it

(21:02):
might lead police to an arrest.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
It's on.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
City leaders in Covington announced yesterday that early work on
the I seventy one Brents Benz Bridge Project Quarter will
begin this summer. Apparently, the earliest work will involve demolishing
two homes on West eleventh Street and West twelfth Street
that should be done by August tenth, a corner of
the city. Another contract is out forbid to demolish the
radio Tower at Goble Park. Large portion of the project

(21:28):
will cut into the existing park. Mayor Ron Washington said
the community is working on a master plan to reshape
the park, saying we advocated on behalf of our citizens
to make sure the Goble Park is as much as
possible made. Whole state set aside money for Goble Park
to revise the gateway there.

Speaker 1 (21:46):
He said.

Speaker 2 (21:47):
Residents of Covington can also expect some changes to West
Third and Crescent Avenue, where a roundabout will be installed
by the fall of next year. Riverfront Commons Trail will
temporarily be rerouted until the summer of twenty twenty six.
Leaders outlined that various utility, sewer, and water lines will
also be worked on starting this year. They stress that

(22:08):
first responders will be updated regularly to ensure the clear
paths around or through work zones are there as the
project progresses. This are the kind of things you have
to think about, and I've Cincinnati's aging vehicle fleet faces
a seventeen point five million replacement backlog headlines from WCPO,

(22:30):
Joe wrote Channel nine needs to talk to Todd Zenzer,
who's identified a whole lot more than the seventeen point
five million dollars that were identified. Fleet Services Manager Liam
Norton told City council members that while two hundred and
forty two vehicles meet criteria for priority replacement about half,
only half are in the process of being replaced, he said,
so that leaves one hundred and twenty seven remaining with

(22:52):
an estimated replacement cost of almost seventeen and a half
million dollars. Since he's draft budget for next year allocates
are you ready ten point six million dollars the Capitol
fleet replacement, which is a one million dollar cut from
last year's budget, They say after American Rescue Plan dollars
were depleted, Gee, what will we do without American Rescue

(23:15):
Plan dollars? I guess let the fleet further deteriorate. Fleet
includes two thousand, six and twenty three units, which include
fire pumpers, fire ladder trucks, sedans, SUVs, backos, excavators, mowers,
and generators. If they're out of life cycle, it meets
two of three criteria vehicle age, mileage or life to

(23:37):
date maintenance cost. Departments that have focused on replacing the
two hundred and forty two vehicles that meet the three categories,
but Norton. The fleet manager told council member Mark Jefferies
that more than four hundred vehicles meet two out of
the three criteria, So someone's going to have to come
up with some money. Joe, do you think it's going
to snow next winter? I know that represented a bit

(24:01):
of a challenge for the city since Nona this last
last winter. Well, maybe they'll count on global warming. Five
thirty six, fifty five kr CD talk station. Stack of
Stupid coming up. Alternatively, phone calls. Either way, we go
be right back fifty five.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
KRC dot Com.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
Coming up at five forty one fifty five kr CD
talk station. Jack Atherton at seven oh five, Big Beautiful Bill.
Discussion with Donovan and EI on a similar discussion with
Congressman David Taylor. So Donovan at seven thirty, Jack at
seven oh five, David Taylor eight oh five, and David
apparently agreeing with me that Congress needs to enact the

(24:41):
Doge findings and be more responsible with our tax dollars.
Judge Anapolitano on punishing freedom. Freedom of speech is the
topic with the Judge. I'm sure we'll ramble on to
some area too. Always enjoy talking to the judge, I
hope you enjoy here and remember fifty five krs dot
com for podcasts when you can't listen live to this
stack of stupid five three, seven, four, nine, fifty two

(25:03):
to three talk case you care to shout out, We'll start
in Florida, Orlando. Amen brother, fast food worker in Florida
now facing charges after he shot and killed a customer.
There's been a lot of stack of stupid food stories
of late Joe.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
Why are you doing that?

Speaker 5 (25:23):
I have no.

Speaker 2 (25:24):
Idea anyway, Cording to police, verbal dispute over a food
order led to the shooting.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
Twenty three year.

Speaker 6 (25:32):
Old it's doing idiot things because they're idiots.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
Twenty three year old Elijah Mackie appeared before a judge
for the first time this past Friday and was given
no bond, obviously in front of Hamilin County Judge Silverstein.
Court to court documents, shooting happened last Wednesday after ten
pm Osiolakara County Sheriff's depu He's responded to a checker's
restaurant customer was getting his food from the front window

(25:59):
when he began arguing with a female employee and asked
to speak with a manager. According to court documents, the
witness said the customer wanted more mayonnaise packets with his order. However,
the situation escalated an authority see surveillance video. Oh look,
surveillance video. There's never any that anymore. From Checker's show,

(26:22):
Mackie climbed out of the drive through window, walking up
to the front of the restaurant to speak to the customer.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
Witness said.

Speaker 2 (26:30):
The customer then made a derogatory comment to Mackie, and
that's when the twenty three year old pulled out a
handgun from his waistband and shot the man in the chest.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
Do what the hell? WDC.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
Mackey then took off from the scene, but they were
able to find him hiding in a stairwell at the
Celebration Suites a short time later. I guess it was
a nearby location. Customer taken to the hospital and that's
where they died. Court to the Checkers spokesperson in a statement,
the actions of this one employee do not reflect the
values of the thousands of our hardworking employees across the country.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
Is that trip really necessary?

Speaker 7 (27:09):
Now?

Speaker 5 (27:09):
Who can argue with that?

Speaker 2 (27:13):
Is they ever going to read the reporting of this
article and determine that all checkers employees are armed and
likely to shoot you if you ask for a few
more mayonnaise packs. We're working close to the police and investigation,
and we are sending our thoughts and prayers to the
guest's family. Jeez, wheeze, it's a slight bit of overreaction

(27:36):
on that. Wouldn't you say, let's get another one. Texas
man's suing Wataburger after he requested no onions with his
meal but got them anyway.

Speaker 1 (27:54):
Court.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
To the court filing filed last month by a guy
named Demry Wilson, this is Texas documents claimed that Wilson
visited Waburger July twenty fourth, last year, ordered a fast
food meal without onions. However, he claims the order did
contain onions, which apparently then triggered an allergic reaction for

(28:16):
which he had to seek the care of medical professionals.
Whataburger denied Wilson's allegations in a separate court document, demanding
strict proof of his assertions. Representative for the San Antonio,
Texas based fast food chain speaking with Fox News so
the company does not comment on pending litigation. Another statement

(28:36):
from legal although the court final doesn't specify what Wilson
claims to have ordered from the fast food chain. The
classic Waterburger comes with the beef patty, mustard, tomato, lettuce, pickles,
and dice onions on a bund Waburger website also as
a page less possible allergens including wheat, soy, gluten, eggs,

(28:59):
and milk, but not reference onions. Court to lawsuit, there
was a manufacturing defect in the food at the time
it left Waburger's possession. The food was defective because it
was unsafe to eat. He's seeking monetary relief over a
quarter of a million dollars but less than a million,
claiming Whataburger is strictly liable for manufacturing defective and unreasonably

(29:21):
dangerous food it serves to the public. Waburger denies it
new or should have known that any product purchased by
Wilson at the restaurant in question was indefective or unreasonably dangerous,
because at the time the items were allegedly purchased.

Speaker 1 (29:37):
Says here.

Speaker 2 (29:38):
Isn't the first time Wilson has sued a fast food
restaurant changed because of a problem he had with his meal.
Lawsuit fought against Sonic on Wilson's behalf in twenty twenty
four alleges that onions were included on his burger, making
him sick. Sonic itself is seeking proof of the allegation
and answer requested a trial by Jerry. Joe Strecker suggested

(30:04):
those with food allergy issues, most notably in aversion to onions,
should look at the burger before it consuming it. Joe,
that just makes too much sense. I'm sorry, man, now,
who can argue with that? Not me, and nobody can
argue with saving literally thousands and thousands of dollars. I'm

(30:26):
mentioning affordable imaging services. Been there multiple times. It's low overhead.
They don't have all the overhead that hospitals have. Hospitals
have to make money, and so they choose the imaging
department to make fat fat fat bank. Why does it
cost five thousand dollars to get a CT scan at
a hospital when you can get one of affordable imaging

(30:47):
services for only four hundred and fifty bucks without a
contrast and six hundred with a contrast. It's the same
type of equipment. Affordable image includes the board certified radiologists
report along with that price, so you want to save
yourself heap loads of money. I got my buddy Jeff
out there, who always sends me an email when I
mentioned Affordable Imaging because he personally saved thirty one hundred

(31:10):
dollars with the image he got at Affordable Imaging Services.
Apparently worked out fine. He has no complaints. He's just

get right in at Affordable Imaging too. Because you're a
doctor orders up an echo cardiogram, I'm guessing you may
be a little bit concerned they'll get you right in.
You may have to wait around a long time. And
in fact, MRIs, there's a backup there too. My doctor

(31:31):
told me about that, at least the hospital that owns
his medical practice. I got my MRI at Affordable Imaging Services.
I called him, talked to him on a Monday. I
was there at noon on a Tuesday getting my MRI.
Everything's great. I was happy about it. But an MRI

Happy Wednesday. Let's head back to the stack of stupid,
shall we. Let's see here woman arrested in Ohio for
she allegedly broke into a home, petted the family's dog,
and washed the dishes. What don't you just have to

(33:38):
pay someone to come in and do that? Joe, Joe
wants to know she's available this weekend. Talked to the
Vinton County Sheriff's Office Anyway, which got a call Monday
morning about a burglary residence in Hampden. Deputy showed up
at the home spoke with the individual, who said a
woman had entered the residence to the back door, sat
down on the couch, and began to pet the family dog,

(33:59):
then wash the dishes, and then left. Individual told deputies
they don't know the woman and she never was invited
into the home. Homeowner noted that the woman was acting
very strange. I'm thinking so Joe. Deputies were interviewing the individual.
The Sheriff's office received a call that a woman matching
the description of the suspect was knocking on doors of

(34:20):
other residences in the area. They located the woman and
approached her. A woman identified as Cheyenne ewing you anticipated this,
didn't you. Joe appear to be under the influence of
narcotics and gave the deputies a false name, telling the
deputy that she had been up for.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
Two days straight.

Speaker 2 (34:40):
Arrested for burglary taking to the Southeastern Ohio Regional Jail
in Nelsonville, being held on a ten thousand dollars bond.
Florida man who was apparently bitten while swimming in alligator
infested waters was then fatally shot after officials said he
emerged from the lake and charged at sheriff deputies with

(35:01):
garden shears. I know two deputies, including a trainee, opened
fire on Timothy Schultz, forty two, after they deployed a
stun gun that had no effect on after Schultz tried
to remove a firearm.

Speaker 1 (35:14):
From the patrol cruiser.

Speaker 2 (35:18):
According to Polk County Sheriff Grady Judge, the fact that
he was bitten by an alligator and still continued his
rampage is shocking. Thorty's first respond to the call involving
Schultz at about six am, when he appeared at a racetrack,
shaking and asking to call his son. Sheriff said deputies
respond to the area could not find him. Two hours later,
witness spotted Schultz in Lakeland south of Orlando, and the

(35:41):
reported that the man was in the lake with quote
a lot close quote of alligators. Sheriff Judge said a
witness actually took a life vest and tried to give
it to him, he wouldn't take it. Another witness told
authorities that Schultz growled when a person tried talking to him.
Reported Schultz was treading water and they could see only

(36:02):
his head. At one point, an alligator appeared to bite
his right arm. After emerging from the lake, Schultz was
seen walking between houses in a residential area carrying a
pair of garden shears, and at one point he threw
a brick at a truck. As deputies arrived, Judge said
they saw Schultz appear trying to break into a vehicle
and quickly got out of their cruiser. Schultz charged at

(36:23):
them with the shears. Sheriff Judge said they ordered him
to drop the tool, and then they deployed the stun
gun when he didn't. Schultz then climbed into the passenger
side of the deputy's patrol vehicle and appeared to try
and remove a rifle or a shotgun, said the sheriff,
and at time our deputies shot multiple times. As a result,

(36:43):
Timothy is deceased.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
He said.

Speaker 2 (36:48):
Deputies will remain unadministratively while the state's attorney's office reviews
the shooting. Judge said Schultz had faced several meth amphetamine
charges and was released from County jeb most recently May twentieth.
Nafi David in that case said the deputy founded glass
pipe that a backpack Schultz was carrying at that tested
positive for meth amphetamine. Oh, I guess that answers the

(37:09):
question about what drug he was out of the influence

(38:33):

be responsible with your tax dollars, says Congressman David Taylor,
who puts some flesh on the bones of that statement,
and we've got some other topics. Go over with the
congressman again at eight oh five fall by Judge Ennan

Speaker 1 (38:55):
Column punishing Freedom.

Speaker 2 (38:57):
It's a First Amendment argument and relate to Trump's efforts
to crack down on college campuses. And again I'll point out,
you got the right to protest the existence of Israel.

Speaker 1 (39:08):
That's your prerogative. It's you're right.

Speaker 2 (39:09):
The question is how far you can go in your protest.
If you're disrupting other people, if you're harming them physically
or otherwise, if you're shutting down buildings, then that doesn't
constitute free speech.

Speaker 1 (39:22):
So there's a line in.

Speaker 2 (39:23):
There somewhere, and we'll go over the details of that
with a judge five one, three, seven, four, nine fifty
five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three talk
pound five fifty on AT and T phones, and if
you care to call, I would truly appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (39:35):
This morning. Uh, and you know I saw this with this.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
Article on the going to the details of it, but
it was people wrestling over the estimated number of illegal
immigrant population in the United States. Homeland Security Secretary Christi
nom said the other day we don't know for certain,
but we believe it could be upwards of twenty million
people that could be here in this country illegally.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
Now.

Speaker 1 (40:01):
Some been relying on older figures eleven eleven and a half.

Speaker 2 (40:04):
Some have gone as high as fifteen. She said that
she told the president twenty to twenty one million people
that need to go home, said that in the cabinet meeting.
Some other people have guestimated that the number is more
like fifty million, But these are figures apparently pulled from
Sphincter's White House Wity Chief of Staff Stephen Miller estimated

(40:25):
that Biden administration let fifteen million illegal immigrants into the
United States.

Speaker 1 (40:30):
JD.

Speaker 2 (40:31):
Vance also going with the approximately twenty million figure. And
then there are others who argue it's much lower than that.
They don't even know how to determine whether someone is
in illegally. They double count. Sometimes you have people that
are thrown out and when they come back into the country,
they're double counted. So is that two illegal immigrants or
is it just one? And they refer to it all

(40:52):
as a tricky question. But the estimates, I mean, regardless
of where you land on it, the estimates are pretty
substantial in terms of the total number of people that
have come in, and it's costing a ton of money
turned to the state of California. It's an illustration of
the broader problem we're facing this country as we struggle

(41:12):
over the big beautiful bills, so called cuts to Medicaid.
In the Medicaid program, I would argue, not really cuts.
I would argue that they're just pairing back or the
work requirement. I'm a firm believer in if you're able bodied,
you should be out in the workplace or at least
trying to get a job or some education training or
I guess you can engage in community service for what

(41:34):
that's worth, because that qualifies you to stay on Medicaid
if as long as you're doing it twenty hours a week. Anyway,
But Republican minority leaders in California, you're talking about what
they're planning on doing with medical that's the California Medical program.
It's insolvent, and it's brought about apparently the insolvency because

(41:56):
people are able to enroll regardless of their immigration status.
Stay facing a twelve billion dollar budget shortfall, and they're
currently discussing the budget and how to get wrestle with that.
In Sacramento, medical program went and solvent earlier this year,
it went billions of dollars over budget, resulting in a

(42:17):
three point four to four billion dollar in loan request
to salvage the program, and of course this covers low
income residents of California. Republicans said it was a large
part due to the illegal immigrants being allowed to enroll
in the program. According to state Sentimnority leader Brian Jones,
that's going to continue to be a big debate in

(42:38):
California where we're wrestling with a twelve billion dollar deficit
and the cost of providing free health care to illegal
immigrants is eleven point four billion dollars. So if we
just didn't do that, that would eliminate our budget deficit.
Interesting point. Newsom's May budget revision proposes a pause for

(43:01):
adults nineteen and older from enrolling in what they call
full scope coverage and to start charging one hundred dollars
each month in premium for individuals with their words certain statuses.
I guess we're left to puzzle over what that means.
According to the deputy communications director for Newsom's office, a

(43:22):
woman named Elena ross to be very clear, these proposals
are the result of a sixteen billion dollar Trump slump
and higher than expected healthcare utilization. Because these outside factors,
the state must take a difficult but necessary step to
ensure fiscal stability and preserve the long term viability of
medical for all Californians.

Speaker 1 (43:43):
How did Trump get in?

Speaker 7 (43:44):
There?

Speaker 2 (43:47):
Is Trump the one that expanded medicaal to all illegal
immigrants and where do you think higher than expected healthcare
utilization came from. It's because you allowed all the illegal
immigrants to float in your state to get on medical.

Speaker 1 (44:00):
Took them all off.

Speaker 2 (44:01):
Going back to the Sentimnority leaders comment, I guess you
would have saved eleven point four billion dollars later, ossi
communications director also added this Governor Newsom refuses to turn
his back on hard working Californians, especially when it comes
to the basic health care needs. Well, at least in

(44:22):
so far as medicaid is concerned, hard working Californians would
still qualify for it if they're under the income threshold.

Speaker 1 (44:30):
Anyway.

Speaker 2 (44:33):
Proposal from the Newsom administration garnered some criticism among the legislature.
Democratic California Legislative Latino Caucus they've got one of those.
They're suggesting a tax hike to pay for illegal immigrants
health care coverage. Well, I'm sure the residents of California

(44:57):
would certainly welcome yet another tax hike. It tax people
in the submission out there, it's one of the reasons
so many people have fled the state. There's more on
that in this article too. I like this statement. The
question remains whether a one hundred dollars premium would be
enough to get people to leave the program? Is that
what that's designed to do? A monthly one hundred dollar

(45:19):
premium for basically unlimited free medical care. They'll leave the
program if I have to pay it. Jones said, medical
being offered to illegal immigrants might not be quite what
democrats presented. Ask quote, it's just a messaging point for
the governor the Democratic leadership. It's not an actual thing,

(45:39):
meaning the governor and Democratic leadership or promising illegal immigrants coverage.
And they are on the rolls, but there's very little access. Now,
I don't understand that. If there's very little access, how
in the hell.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
Did the.

Speaker 2 (45:53):
Utilization go through the roof, resulting in this massive shortfall
in the medical program. Apparently they're there is access to it.
Corne to Jones, A lot of doctors in California that
used to provide Medicare and Medicaid have closed up shop
moved to other states. And I laughed at that, going

(46:13):
back to my earlier comment, Well maybe they've been taxed
into submission and they decided, look, i can go make
more money in another state. I'm leaving California Assembly Minority
Leader James Callagher, of course, this is California. James a
Republican talking to Fox News that the budget shortfall is

(46:36):
a total disaster and was completely predictable. You know, two
years ago, Gavin Newsom and the super majority Democrats decided
to fund illegal immigrant healthcare through our medical program, and
everybody said, it's going to be billions of dollars. It's
not sustainable. And at the time Biden was president and
people were coming across the border, millions of people. We
had no idea, and I think a lot of them

(46:58):
came to California.

Speaker 9 (46:59):
And so.

Speaker 2 (47:01):
Now we have a completely unsustainable, bankrupt medical system that
has required three point four billion dollars worth of loans
to prop up.

Speaker 1 (47:09):
Well, there you have it. You know, all across this
great Land.

Speaker 2 (47:13):
As a consequence of the open borders policy the Biden administration,
cities have been struggling just dealing with the housing and
the schooling issues. Billions of dollars have been spent. This
is a problem that is totally was totally avoidable. If
you'd just kept the borders closed and kept the number
of illegal immigrants flowing across the border at a minimum,

(47:34):
or at least endeavor to do so, you wouldn't have
had the massive influx of literally millions and millions, I
guess on some level somewhere between eleven and fifty million
coming into the country and overwhelming the social welfare safety net.
I mean, you know, Democrats did this to us. This

(47:57):
is what happens, and it's on the losing side of
the ledger. This is one of those things, you know,
as we're getting ready to talk to you well Jack Evan,
about Democrats reinventing themselves. It's one of the reasons that
Democrats don't pull so well and on that one topic
and that topic alone, that's why a whole bunch of
people voted for Donald Trump. They saw what was happening

(48:20):
in their city, They saw what was happening with crime,
they read the articles in the paper, they looked at
their own social welfare, safety net systems.

Speaker 1 (48:28):
Medical.

Speaker 2 (48:28):
Oh my god, I'm not I resident legal in the
state of California. I'm gonna have my medical care taken
away from me because the idiots and in Sacramento decided
they're gonna give it to every man. Woman and Chowdoo
came across the border illegally. It like I always say,
I woke up in a parallel universe planet. Doesn't make

(48:51):
a witsworth of sense. And if this is a strategy,
the Democrats run on and embrace and continue to embrace.
And there are a lot of Republicans worried about the
midterm elections. Well, they're on a charted course and it
seems to me that they're sticking with it. Let them

(49:15):
well die fighting that battle, as far as I'm concerned.

Six twenty three fifty five k r C the talk
station five one, three, seven, four, nine fifty five eighty
two to three talk nine five fifty on eight and
T phones related to nothing I've been talking about this morning,
but I do appreciate the headlines and the direction GM
is now going, following many other automobile manufacturers as they

(50:58):
begin to turn their back on electric vehicles because no
one wants them and if the government incentives dry up,
then no one's going to buy them. I think that's
pretty much a conclusion. And I say, I know that's
a broad brush statement. I've got friends of own tessels
and just think the world of them. And I'm not
going to be critical of the technology either.

Speaker 1 (51:15):
I just I'm.

Speaker 2 (51:18):
I like my internal combustion engine automobile. I feel confident
in it. It's easy to fill up, it's got awesome range.
I don't have to worry about finding a charging station,
even if the modern charging stations will charge my vehicle
up within five or ten minutes or however they I mean,
they've vastly improved the charging technology. I acknowledge all that.

Speaker 1 (51:39):
But you know, the.

Speaker 2 (51:42):
Inflation Reduction Act, which was that new enter a green
energy bill, was supposed to have built an entire network
of charging stations across this great land of ours, and
I think the current count stands at like fifty six,
so I'm not going down that road. Apparently General Motors
now move away from that road as well. They've abandoned
plans to put three hundred million dollars into electric vehicle

(52:05):
motor production at their upstate New York plan and will
instead invest eight hundred and eighty eight million dollars to
make the latest V eight engines. Hmm that that EV
announcement came a couple of years ago for its Tonawanda plant,
But since electric vehicle sales has slowed and they lose

(52:28):
money on every single one they sell, they GM, along
with a lot of other carmakers, are well pulling back
their investment plans in EV Technology Company said yesterday it's
new plan marks its largest single investment in an engine
plan and makes Tonawanda the facility there its second propulsion
plan to produce the six generation V eight engine. They'll

(52:53):
be using full sized trucks and SUVs, also going to
be combining a new combustion and thermal management innovations to
help them proof performance while also reducing emissions. Investment for
new machinery, equipment, tools, and facility renovations and builds on
GM's work to boost its manufacturing facilities in recent years,
including a half a billion dollar investment in its Flint

(53:15):
engine plant in twenty twenty three. So as far as
I'm concerned again to move in the right direction, joining
many other automobile manufacturers. I know Porsche's struggling because of
the EU and their mandates. They were going to go
all electric, and they're starting to question the prudence of
that decision. Maybe will continue manufacturing cars with internal combustion

(53:38):
engines six twenty six. Right now, if it's five kre

Happy Wednesday, looking forward to the top of the air
news because after which Jack added in returns to the
program to give us the big picture. One hour from
now Donovan Eel on the Big Beautiful Bill. Congressman David
Taylor on that topic as well at eight oh five,
and then two hours fast forward to Judge eddenal Politano
on the First Amendment punishing freedom. Anyway, let us see

(56:40):
here back to local stories. Let's see shot. Woman shot
in the back after a bullet entered an apartment. This
happened in Winton Hills, Cornas incein Police Department fifty six
hundred block of Garden Hill Lane about a quarter after
eleven Monday. Police said the bullet originated from outside of

(57:01):
the apartment before hitting the forty nine year old woman.
CPO speaking with Lieutenant Jonathan Cunningham. The woman taking to
UC Medical Center. Details of garnering his condition have not
been released, though the lieutenant said that the shooting was
not accidental. They have not released information regarding potential suspects,
although Lieutenant Cunningham Indicaty of West instigation is still ongoing,

(57:23):
so that's why throughout crime Stoppers earlier three five two
thirty forty if you have any information that might lead
to an arrest on that one. A story out a
Warren County nurse taken into custody after allegedly stealing fentanyl
from an Ohio hospital. Youngstown based news station WFJM reporting
thirty five year old Nicole Gilger facing charges after allegedly

(57:43):
stealing fentanyl from Saint Joseph Hospital located in Warren. Represented
for the Trumble County Prosecutor's Office said the theft s
occurred between December last year in January this year. Prosecutor's
office said that Gilger had been registered nurse since twenty nineteen.
Taken to the jail in Trumbull County Friday, charged with
five counts of possession of fentanyl related compound, five counts

(58:03):
of theft of drugs, five counts of deception to obtain
a dangerous drug, five counts of illegal processing of drug
documents released the same day schedule for arrangement June eleventh.

Speaker 1 (58:18):
Let's see here.

Speaker 2 (58:19):
Some people are calling for Hamilton County prosecutor County pillage
to clear since a police officer was shot and killed
eighteen year old Ryan Hinton. That decision may depend on
whether the case is presented for a grand jury. Again,
CPO reporting on this one. Officers from the CPD became
aware of a stolen vehicle. This was on May first.
I'm sure you know the story by now apartment complex

(58:41):
and the twenty five hundred block of Warsaw Avenue. Police
approach the vehicle. Four people ran from it, at least
one of them identified as Hint and was armed with
a gun. Officer whose name has not been released, and
I guess for his own safety, he said in police
interviews that Hinton was pointing the gun at police. Police
Chief Fiji said Marci's law as a reason or cited

(59:03):
Marsh's law as a reason for withholding the officer's name.
Hamilton County corner Lakshimi Somarco held a press conference last
week to discuss the autopsy. That press conference initially pushed
back after the coroner's office stated it had received a
grand jury subpoena. Smarco said, am I thirteen years as
a corner, I've never been served with the grand jury subpoena.

(59:25):
So local news WCPO looked into this trying to figure
out if the case was presented for a grand jury
talking with Pete Meyer, who worked at the Hamilton County
Prosecutor's Office more than forty years. He had retired last month,
but he spent a majority of those years as chief
Assistant prosecutor and head of the office's Criminal Division, which
job included going to scenes after police shootings to help

(59:46):
determine if the shooting was justified. Also part of the
team that originally prosecuted former University of Cincinnati police officer
Ray Tensing, he said the standard is basically, a police
officer is justified if there was a threat to himself
for the public, the threat is severe enough to use
deadly force. He's taught to use deadly force. Asked if

(01:00:07):
it was rare in his experience to present a case
of a police shooting for the grand jury, he said yes,
on one hand, I can count them, he said cases
of police shootings that he dealt with. If an officer
was clearly justified, then the decision would have been made
fairly quickly. However, he said, in some cases aren't as clear,
and those are the ones that be more likely presented
to the grand jury. So I guess that case still

(01:00:30):
has legs. Another video footage raised some concerns for some
folks in the community. But honestly, it's a split second decision.
The kid had a gun, was running from police, and
it may very well have been that he did point
it at the officer. But you know, young people with

(01:00:51):
firearms running from police out of a stolen vehicle. I
think that raises one's concern for eminent apprehension of deadly force.

Speaker 1 (01:02:36):
Hey, Bobby, welcome to the program. Good to hear from somebody.

Speaker 11 (01:02:40):
Good morning, brothers, faith, flagged, family, and firearms. When you
keep those, you always have freedom. Yes, sir, Happy humpday,
my friend. Back at you, brother, back at you. What's
on your mind today other than that. Well, we've just
we've just been out maintaining Almighty God's America against the
administrative state and the Fifth Column. So that's all I

(01:03:02):
know up to now. Just appreciate everything you do holding
the torture freedom behind bright.

Speaker 1 (01:03:07):
We need it.

Speaker 2 (01:03:08):
Any specific activities you've been engaged in in order to
accomplish that goal there, Bobby.

Speaker 11 (01:03:13):
Well, we try to stay undercover, my friend. You know
what I'm saying. There's a lot of help out there
needed with people that are trying to go up against
these retrobates.

Speaker 4 (01:03:25):
You know what I'm saying. I know unprincipled peoples.

Speaker 2 (01:03:29):
Are you trying to avoid being labeled as a domestic
violent extremist, Bobby.

Speaker 11 (01:03:34):
I don't believe in the violence. There's a lot of
ways to protest peacefully, and I agree, think out of
the box.

Speaker 1 (01:03:41):
I agree.

Speaker 2 (01:03:42):
This is the reason I use that specific phrase, and
I'll get to it after we part company on this call, Bobby,
But I certainly appreciate you chiming in, if just to
pass along that simple message which I agree with, say family,
flag and firearms, maintaining that freedom. Anyhow, I'll pivot over
to that point I wanted to make now. Last week
it was released, and I did comment on this the

(01:04:04):
other day that the Biden administration was well aware that
the COVID nineteen vaccine caused myocarditis and young people.

Speaker 7 (01:04:13):
And the.

Speaker 2 (01:04:15):
Ron Johnson Senator Ron Johnson samon of the sherman of
the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations has been looking into
the safety and advocacy of COVID nineteen vaccines, sent out
a multitude of subpoenas and more than seventy oversight letters,
which he said, since twenty twenty one he sent these out,
they were either completely ignored or inadequately assessed. So they

(01:04:36):
issued this interim report fifty five pages long, so in
the Biden administrations, with Biden administration officials, in the words
of the report, withheld crucial health information from the Subcommittee
and the public. Report highlights the records Johnson obtained pursuing
to the subpoenas he sent out. The report focuses on

(01:04:57):
health and human services awareness and awareness of and response
to cases of myocarditis, which is a form of heart
inflammation after the COVID nineteen vaccine. Report says that two
thousand and four hund and seventy three pages of records
he obtained contained and this is in the report as well,
contain evidence of the Biden administration's efforts to downplay and

(01:05:18):
delay warning the public about the risks of myocarditis associated
with the COVID nineteen vaccine, pointing to records from May
of twenty twenty one which health officials at AHHS discussed
whether or not they should issue a formal warning about
this problem. Cord to formal warning about myocarditis was initially

(01:05:38):
going to be distributed nationwide as what they call a
Health Alert Network message, a hand message, which is the
CDC's primary method of sharing cleared information about urgent public
health incidents with public information officers, federal, state, tribal, territorial,
local public health practitioners, clinicians, public health laboratories, and most notably,

(01:06:01):
something that the media could report on. Hey, by the way,
your myocar myocarditis may be a problem for your young
high school kid, if you give them a vaccine, you
might want to take note of that in factor that
into your decision making on whether or not you're going
to get your kid a vaccine. According to the report,
based on the subpoenaed records the subcommittees received the date

(01:06:22):
as well as public FOYA documents, This inter report will
highlight records and present a timeline showing US health officials
knew about the risk of myocarditis, those officials downplay the
health concern, and US health agencies delayed in forming the
public about the risk of the adverse event. Port also
points to Israeli Ministry of Health, which did notify officials

(01:06:44):
at the CDC in February of twenty twenty one of,
in their words, large reports of myocarditis, particularly in young people,
following the ministration of the Pfizer vaccine. Report also notes
that the CDC officials discussed safety signals for myocarditis with
mRNA vaccines in April twenty twenty one based upon Defense

(01:07:07):
Department and Israeli data, but still not taking immediate steps
to let you know about it, which is interesting timing,
which is the pivot over to the comment about domestic
violent extremists. Thank you Tech Friday's Dave Hatter for passing
this one along because it's now found out based upon

(01:07:29):
recently disclosed information Tulsey Gabbert declassified, in which it's revealed
a Biden administration labeled Americans who opposed the COVID nineteen
vaccination in mass mandates as domestic violent extremists. Accordingly released
declassified intelligence records designation created an articulable purpose for FBI

(01:07:53):
or other government agents to open an assessment of individuals,
which is often the first step towards a formal investigation.
According to over FBI agent, hmm, let's take Steve's call,
Joseahs take Steve, Steve, Welcome to the Morning Show and
a happy Wednesday, Good morning.

Speaker 9 (01:08:11):
I worked at a major hospital downtown Cincinnati that I
dealt with the younger people. Yeah, and they mandated everybody
got it on page I don't know five ten. They
had buried the information. He just said that it causes
heart problems. Several people that I was around, young guys.
One guy got it and about killed him. I refused

(01:08:33):
to take it a based on religious religious grounds, and
I brought.

Speaker 4 (01:08:37):
Up the Nuremberg Code.

Speaker 9 (01:08:38):
Right, I need to be fully informed. Consent I man.
I asked that I needed to see the ingredients. I
need to see the studies. I asked a lot of
questions when I was around there, especially in the research department.
There was one area where they had tissue samples final
you know, body parts and stuff where they could test

(01:08:58):
twenty years back. And I asked if they would check
those samples for COVID nineteen. And the women in the
rooms stop what they're doing, looked at me and said
they liked their jobs, they liked being in research. They
were never given the authority to do it, and if
they did it, wink when they probably find it.

Speaker 1 (01:09:16):
Yep, I walked.

Speaker 9 (01:09:18):
I went everywhere, listen to stories from I've worked on
this one light constantly outside these doctor's offices, and her
conversations from they needed to put people in concentration camps,
take the kids away, to the fact that hey, Bob,
maybe we messed up. You know they went through the
break to you know, oh so and so got COVID
even though they got a shot, Well that's just the

(01:09:39):
break to.

Speaker 4 (01:09:39):
Well then then we'll started getting it.

Speaker 1 (01:09:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:09:44):
I finally got it after two years to quit taking
vitamin see they try to mandate or make it the
government did they any vitamins and stuff had to be
prescribed and not over the counter. When I told my
doctor family doctor about I got COVID, took abrametin, how
to Corquin's epak and a steroid shot. I was over
in thirty hours and uh, I after she started going

(01:10:07):
off on abramectin, and I said, uh, it won a
Nobel Prize for you know, we were in the top
three medications over a enter for humans that said subscribed
sixty billion times in no side effects and it kills Oh,
what's that virus is? So why would you give me
an experimental drug that nobody's allowed to know anything? Ask anything?
Demonized conspiracy terrorists.

Speaker 4 (01:10:30):
I set out this years ago.

Speaker 9 (01:10:32):
It's out there in the public that everybody watches propaganda
TV and don't take the time to read. They know
every football player, basketball player, but don't care what they
put in their bodies. So I've been all through this.
It's it's out there. The information is there, and I
see people didn't show. People didn't show for subpoenas. Isn't
that a crime you can be in prison for? I
mean the CEO Pfizer couldn't go to UK Parliament to

(01:10:55):
testify on the road because you wouldn't take his own injection.
So when he did send people there, it's all you
can look all this stuff up. Don't believe me that
they testified under oath that their shot did not stop COVID,
did nothing, my hope had COVID and did not keep
people on spreading COVID. Yeah, And when I wouldn't take
their shot and they released people that did take the shot,
they could stop wearing a mask, I said, put a

(01:11:17):
star on my shoulder because I had to wear a mask,
I said, So I went to go. They were going
to write me up, And I went to the boss's office,
directors and stuff, and I grabbed two boxes off the
table on the way there, walked in the room, laid
them down and said, read the back of that. These
are the products you want me to wear.

Speaker 4 (01:11:31):
I said.

Speaker 9 (01:11:32):
It does not stop or prevent the spread of COVID.
Why am I having to wear one?

Speaker 11 (01:11:36):
Right?

Speaker 9 (01:11:36):
And I go ahead and go ahead and write me up.
I see in court fire me for not taking your injection.
Hates discrimination Nurremberg code, I said, And when you asked
me about my religions. State and federal law says you
cannot ask me about my religion. So thank you for
exhibit A. Thank you for exhibit A. It's been out there.
People are just I don't do what's cool. I do
what's right. And people are too worried about the proper

(01:11:58):
game of killing Grandma and in that that they don't
stand up for their own selves. That's all I got.

Speaker 4 (01:12:03):
I'll see.

Speaker 2 (01:12:04):
I appreciate your comments to you, or really do, and
I appreciate people standing up speaking truth to power. I've
had a couple of physicians on over the past what
a couple of months, Joe's lined up the guests and
they spoke truth to power, and they pointed a lot
of this stuff out back then, and they lost their
license and their jobs over it. And as it turns out,
what they were telling us back early on was true.

(01:12:27):
Six fifty one fifty five K see de talk stations.

and they'll deliver on that. So many people have worked
with Peter Shabrie and his team to get their house,
to find a house, or sell a house, multiple programs

(01:12:50):
that nobody else is offering. I love the instant Offer program.
Having been through the sale of a house at one point,
I know it can be a colossal pain in the keyster,
you know, getting out of the house for the showings,
pay rooms because well, your your choice in colors is
not appealing to the vast majority of people out in
the world. You know you're good. Real estate agents will
let you know that maybe peptobysmal pink living room is

(01:13:10):
not the way to go, so you might want to
paint that to improve the price of your home. You
don't want to do any of that. You want an
instant offer. Within forty eight hours of the Supree Group
seeing your home, you will have an instant offer, meaning
you're done and over with the entire process in about
three weeks or maybe even less, moving on with your life.
Patriot Program props to the Subri group for that one.
They'll give back ten percent of their commission to those veterans.

(01:13:32):

Speaker 2 (01:13:52):
Fifty four or fifty five KRCD talk station that be Wednesday,
Jack Avian And at the top of the our news
with the Big Picture, I was telling people about masks.
I mean, early on that was the one thing that
I refused to buy into the idea that a mask
was going to stop it. And my own personal experience
hilarious and painful as it was doing a stress test.
You know, you get a heart stress test on that

(01:14:15):
blanken treadmill, getting at your heart rate up really high,
and they made me wear a mask, one of those
paper masks, and you know, it's got a giant gap
on both sides, and I'm a heart you know, huffing
and puffing because of course it's the stress tests. And
I wouldn't exactly I wouldn't say my cardiovascular system is
exactly in superior shape anyway, but it's I mean, my

(01:14:39):
breath is literally coming out the side of the mask
at the woman who's operating the machine, and I went
to move it or take it off because I'm gasping
for air, and she don't take that mask off. I
think myself, what the hell good you think this thing
is doing. I'm early on record he was like throwing

(01:14:59):
sand again. It said, chain link fence. The little tiny
COVID nineteen virus is going to go right through the
paper mask, even if it's properly a fixed Yes, a
chain link fence will stop some sand from going through,
but the vast majority is going to go right through.
It was the just one of the dumbest things about
the whole COVID nineteen experience with those masks. Remember early

(01:15:20):
on when people would show up at like Kroger and
they'd have a like a jock strap across their face
or underwear. There's all kinds of makeshift masks out there.
I hope we learned a lot from that particular incident.
I know the trust in government has deteriorated dramatically since then,
and I don't necessarily view that as a negative six

up on fifty five krs the talk station.

Speaker 2 (01:16:13):
Seven o five Here a Forbuve KCD talk station. It's Wednesday,
which means you can always count on in the big
picture with Jack Added and Jack welcome back to the program.
Always look forward to having you on the show.

Speaker 12 (01:16:23):
Thanks for having me, Belle. Hope everybody's well. For those
who thought we'd never see Democrats and Republicans working together,
look how Jake Tapper's new book is now a best seller,
largely thanks to the Fox News Channel twenty four to seven.
They plugged this miserable confession of how the CNN anchor

(01:16:45):
helped cover up Joe Biden having been a sock puppet
for everybody, from doctor Jill to all the aids and
donors who used Biden's auto pen to run our country
into the ground. It's a huge story, I grant that,
but showing old Joe falling upstairs for the ten thousandth

(01:17:05):
time is exactly what Jake Tapper and the other Democrats
want because coverage of the cover up distracts from the
Democrats much bigger sin that they sold out their own
base of black voters, blue collar workers, and now Jewish voters.
To see how Brian can resume again. Through history, the

(01:17:28):
Democratic Party from his founding in eighteen twenty eight championed
slave owners. Even after losing the Civil War, Democrats remained
the party of segregation. They still control the South, But
the Republican Party he founded in eighteen fifty four occupied
the White House almost without interruption, from Lincoln's election through reconstruction,

(01:17:54):
then the guilded age of industrialization all the way until
the Roaring twenties led to our country's collapse. As we
always know, Brian power corrupts and corrupted the Republicans. Robert
Barons had cracked down murderously on the new labor unions.
Monopoly stifled competition. Stock prices were pumped up by speculators

(01:18:19):
who were allowed by Republican regulators to buy on ninety
percent margins. You only had to put up ten percent
of the stocks price disaster and those margins got called
in when the bubble finally burst in nineteen twenty nine,
Ruined speculators jumped out of windows, ruined workers eight on breadlines.

(01:18:40):
America did not trust Republicans again for more than twenty years. Now,
taking advantage of all this, Democrats had transformed themselves into
champions of the downshrodden. Their big city machines embraced millions
of immigrants and their unions nationally. Franklindellan a ro Roosevelt's

(01:19:00):
New Deal socialism took folks living in Hooverville shanties and
put them to work on government projects, including, of course,
the general mobilization of men and women for World War II.
After we won the war, Harry Truman's Marshall Plan rebuilt
Europe to see how grateful they are for that, and

(01:19:21):
he brought democracy to Japan. America could afford to be
generous because America at that time was the factory of
the world. Both parties remarkably asked General Eisenhower to run
on their presidential tickets in nineteen fifty two. He chose
the Republicans, but Democrats continued to control Congress, and the

(01:19:44):
two sides worked together because at that point, my friend,
they were not worlds apart. In fact, the next Democrat president,
John F. Kennedy, slash taxes across the board, Yes for growth,
and it worked. Jfk in fronted communism, the opposed federal unions,
and today Jack Kennedy would be considered a Reagan Conservative.

(01:20:08):
But after an assassin killed Kennedy and folks. This is
the key Democrats got greedy. In their second transformation, which
we're living through now, Democrats turned on their own constituents
in a bid to control them. Take Black Americans for generations,

(01:20:29):
they had supported Republicans the Party of Lincoln. Many fled
from southern bigotry to northern factories. They joined unions and
then freely chose to vote Democrat. Yet that wasn't enough
for Democrats. In order to own them, Lyndon Johnson's Great
Society sent black voters back to their plantation. Rush Limoit

(01:20:53):
used to remind us that more Republicans than Democrats supported
the nineteen sixties civil rights laws, but Conservatives did not
support welfare laws that pay teenage mothers one of the
worst things in history only if there was no man
living in the house. Those programs and others destroyed families

(01:21:14):
of all races who got welfare for generations, making them
utterly dependent on big government. The same thing happened with
blue collar workers. Democrats already had the support of unions.
They claimed to care about the millions of men and
women who had joined the middle class thanks to skilled labor.
But instead of expanding manufacturing here in America, Democrat leaders

(01:21:38):
betrayed those workers. Teaming up with the old white shoe Republicans,
the ones we now call Rhinos, Democrats pushed terrible trade
and tax laws that shipped America's manufacturing base overseas, mostly
the Communists China in a search for rock bottom wages.
And what about the blue collar jobs that had to

(01:22:00):
remain here in America, agriculture and landscape, construction, domestic work.
The new uniparty of Democrats and Rhino Republicans drove those
wages down by welcoming tens of millions of illegal immigrants
you were just talking about this last hour. The Democrat
base also includes generations of students indoctrinated by left wing teachers,

(01:22:26):
single women whose overriding issues are abortion and DEI, and
one other reliable group, Jewish Americans. Even more than most immigrants,
Jews had never been accepted in Europe, lacking a homeland
at that time, they arrived in America seeking universal righteousness
taught by the prophets and echoed by modern liberals. Trouble

(01:22:51):
is Brian Jews have always been handy scapegoats, excluded by
many white shoe Republicans. Watch the old Gregory Peck movie
Gentlemen's Agreement. Jews hoped to find a home with Democrats,
and for a while they did. But now Democrats and
their elite institutions by Harvard and Columbia receiving untold millions

(01:23:14):
of dollars, not just from the United States taxpayers, but
from Muslim countries and from others who have no use
for Jews or their Jewish state. Democrat leaders are now
propping up Iran Hamas and anti Semite are at home,
So where can Jews find a political home? Look, you
may not like his bullying and his overreaching, but Donald

(01:23:38):
Trump is the best friend Israel ever had. Besides recognizing
Jerusalem as Israel's capital and seeking a peaceful, prosperous future
for Gaza, Trump's Abraham Accords, which he's now trying to expand,
boxed in Iranian Jahadists by fostering trade between Israel and

(01:23:58):
its neighbors. That's the key to a bright future for
Israel and the Middle East, for Jews and the rest
of the free world. As for black and Hispanic voters,
along with blue collar workers and young people, more and
more are realizing that their future can only be secured
if they can find good pain jobs here in America.

(01:24:21):
Trump's entire growth program aims to take America and make
it secure economically, militarily, morally by encouraging family formation, the
exact opposite of what the Democrats did and do. Trump
may be uncouth, but he's not a bigot. He's not homophobic,

(01:24:42):
he's not anti trans only protective of children and taxpayers,
the bottom line, folks. Just as Democrats transform themselves twice
from slaveholders into champions of downtrodden workers and now the
party of a eat one world socialists, President Trump has

(01:25:03):
transformed the old elite, white shoe Republican Party into a
populist party for a growing middle class of all racist
creeds and ethnicities. Democrats have been nominated candidate in two
thousand and eight, who's not falling upstairs, who's healthy enough
to be president? But if they want to challenge the

(01:25:23):
ideas the policies that elected Donald Trump and that we
too seldom talk about on TV. They better transform themselves.
Yet again, what do you say, Brian, Well, I agree
with you. Has We've down quite a few thoughts on this.

Speaker 2 (01:25:38):
First off, the Democrats seems have been and I think
I'm not the only one who's reached this conclusion.

Speaker 1 (01:25:43):
Bounce it off your head as well. I expect you
to agree.

Speaker 2 (01:25:45):
With me, and seem to be dominated by the leftist
intellectual class, you know, the ones that dominate college universities,
and they've stolen whatever populist narrative the Democrats have, and
they are not I believe if you were able to
read their minds, you would find out that they are
truly Marxists. They truly believe America is evil, that capitalism

(01:26:08):
is bad, and it's the problem of the source of
everyone's problems. And as Marx wrote about, you know, the
problem that when Marxism doesn't take hold, it's because you
have a comfortable, happy middle class. And if you look
at the middle class, it seems to be eroding around
the edges, whether it's through you know, regulations. Energy prices
go through the roof, gasoline goes through the roof it erodes,

(01:26:31):
and taxes go through the roof. It erodes the spending
power of the middle class and puts them in a
position where they aren't comfortable and they are not happy.
So once you get rid of that middle class, you
are left with the people who are dependent upon government
or are just outright simply poor, which Marxism really appeals
to from each according's ability, to each courters his need,

(01:26:51):
which means wealth redistribution. And I ultimately think that's that's
really what the goal is. But they've lost sight of
what the American people really want. We aren't interested in that.

Speaker 12 (01:27:04):
In the nineteenth century, Karl Marx, who had emigrated from
Germany to England where he wrote his books along with
Fridrick Engels, he predicted that there would be communist revolutions
throughout Europe. He started writing in eighteen forty eight, when
there were a lot of revolutions he thought that would continue.
What Marx did not understand is that the capitalism that

(01:27:27):
he castigated had brought prosperity after a lot of woes,
after a lot of pain during that transformation. All of
these transformations are painful because people are displaced from established
jobs and they have to learn new technology. It's not
the same thing as Joe Biden callously telling people learn
to go out in code. It's not that easy, but

(01:27:48):
it does take take some time. Europe was transformed into
a capitalist society. There was a growing middle class, and
consequently the Marxist revolution came not an industrialized Europe, but
an agrarian Russia. And then in China, and yes, you're right,
that's where you had a lot of poor people and

(01:28:10):
all they expected were handout. It's not necessarily good paying
jobs that allowed them to rise to a middle class.
Those so called intellectuals that you're talking about on the
left in America, the Democrat intellectuals, they all equated labor
with Marxism, and that's unfortunate. Donald Trump doesn't do that.

(01:28:30):
He wants to bring jobs back to America, not so
people can become Marxists, but so they can become Americans.
Because America was founded on the idea that you could
support yourself, and you needed a zone of privacy, of
a zone of liberty that was God given and go
out and raise a family and have your own life
and fulfill all of your civic functions, not just a

(01:28:52):
top down society, a bottom up society, and that's I
think what the Republicans, the new Republican Party is striving
to do. The trouble is, you don't have a monolithic
Republican party, and you shouldn't. You should always have a
debate about ideas and about aims and about means. But
until that happens, it's possible that we're going to screw

(01:29:14):
up again, not get much done, and the Democrats rather
we'll take over.

Speaker 2 (01:29:19):
Well, that is certainly a possibility of a Republican party
has a track record of screwing things up when it
seems to be in their advantage to play nicely together
within their own party. And the other observation I have
the the the left is so against the Medicaid reform,
the work requirement in there, where able body people are

(01:29:39):
required to take some steps to better their own situation.
And that seems to me, you know, along the lines
of the reverse of the Johnson policy, where you hand
out money to and break up the nuclear family and
create government dependence. This is a mechanism. If you want Medicaid,
then you're going to have to go out and maybe
get a job or actually worked toward your education. And

(01:30:01):
there are so many opportunities in the trades. If someone
currently is unemployed on medicaid but is able bodied, if
they follow through and engage in a maybe an earn
while you learn plan, or go to a trade school,
or take advantage of the opportunity to learn something, they
will become independent people with a career. And that seems

(01:30:22):
to me to be a step in the right direction.

Speaker 12 (01:30:25):
Unless you're a Democrat. The Democrats have no philosophy, absolutely none.
For all of their so called intellectuals at Harvard and Columbia,
they only have what they now call the groups, all
of these various special interests groups, single women, young people, blacks,

(01:30:45):
of course, anybody they're trying to rope in and to
whom they can give something. They can't afford to offend
any of those individual groups, unless, of course, it's the Jews.
So they took regretted for so long and thought would
never go the Republicans because the Jews felt that they
were not valued by Republicans. That's changing, and I hope

(01:31:06):
more and more Jewish people will be changing too. But
when you talk about something like medicaid for able bodied
young men, the Democrats are so afraid of losing any
more men that they won't go along with that they
box themselves into insanity.

Speaker 2 (01:31:22):
Oh, no question about that. Although I think there's been
a rather large awakening among some of the minority communities,
most notably over the past four years. This paternalistic attitude
the Democrats have. You're not capable of doing this, You're
not capable of getting an id, you're not capable of
filling the blank. And I think that's an insult to

(01:31:42):
the minority groups that they're speaking to when they make
these ridiculous comments. And that may be one of the
reasons Donald Trump made so many inroads within the Hispanic
and Black communities.

Speaker 12 (01:31:52):
And continues to do so, and will if we can
actually succeed in pushing through his agenda. Maybe not all
of it, maybe not in pristine form, but we've got
to get things.

Speaker 2 (01:32:02):
Done and hope so jack out of it. Always a
distinct pleasure to have you on the show, my friend.
Excellent comments, and I'll look forward to next Monday with
another big picture. Best to you and your better half,
my friend.

Speaker 2 (01:32:58):
Here fifty five car CD talks to issue and it's
one say Americans for Prosperity. Donovan Andeo joins the program
at this time talk stuff and things and most notably
stuff and things inside the Big Beautiful Bill. Welcome back,
Donovan and Neil. It's great to have you on the program.

Speaker 4 (01:33:14):
Brian, always good to be with.

Speaker 2 (01:33:16):
Yeah, So your personal take on this still called big
Beautiful bill. I hate that name, honestly, I said that before.
I really wish it wasn't called that. I wish we
could call it something else. But beyond that I had
I was disappointed that didn't cut, you know, I mean,
at one point five trillion dollars and cuts over ten years,
when we're blowing through an extra two trillion plus a year,

(01:33:38):
it just doesn't do much by way of writing the
overspending in government. And I can't get over that, in
spite of the fact that it's got some great things
in it.

Speaker 1 (01:33:46):
Donovan, your reaction.

Speaker 13 (01:33:49):
Yeah, well, I think you know, none of this stuff
is ever is ever beautiful, despite the naming of.

Speaker 4 (01:33:55):
The one big of the bill being one big beautiful bill.

Speaker 13 (01:33:57):
But what I think is important here is what would
speak Johnson and House Republicans did is they operated from
the premise that this is this is our money, not
Washington's money, right, and so they remained laser focused on
cementing in one of the largest tax cuts in American history,
right by making permanent those twenty seventeen Trump tax cuts,
something that a lot of folks said may not even

(01:34:18):
be possible, maybe at best, they can extend them for
five to ten years. Maybe they can do it if
they increased the top marginal rate. But no, they did it, Brian.
They made the Trump tax cuts permanent through what they've done.
Now it goes to the Senate, and I think what
you're seeing from Senators like Ron Johnson and others right
where you've also got a smaller focus, a smaller number
of folks, right fifty two members to organize and rally

(01:34:40):
that the conversation is around the deficit, spending right and
getting some of that, getting some of that fiscal note
into a better place.

Speaker 4 (01:34:46):
And so I think through.

Speaker 13 (01:34:47):
This sausage making process, you know, the hope would be right,
we'd get to an even better product for those folks
who were focused on the deficit and the spending, which
is an important area. But I think the most important
thing we did, we see it happen here, right, is
what the goal was from the beginning of this year
was to make a lot of to make the Trump
tax cuts permanent, follow through on the campaign promises of

(01:35:08):
even lower taxes that Republicans campaigned on last year to
earn our votes, and then House accomplish that in this bill.

Speaker 2 (01:35:16):
I mean I get all that, and I know it's
a big thing to have the Trump tax cuts made permanent,
because that means some future Congress is going to have
to undo them by raising taxes, which is never a
popular thing to campaign on or run on. But you know,
as long as the deficit keeps increasing, it feeds the
notion that raising taxes on Americans is somehow going to

(01:35:36):
stop the excess spending in government and be applied to
lowering the whole we've dug ourselves in. And Donovan, you
and I both know that never ever happens.

Speaker 13 (01:35:47):
Well, it never ever happens. But I think what we've got,
what we're starting to see here is a bit of
the change in the culture right. And I think one
of the areas that as we get through this over
the next few weeks and we start looking at what
the next fight's going to be over the next three years,
the Trump administration, I think one of the biggest things
folks need to.

Speaker 4 (01:36:05):
Zero in on.

Speaker 13 (01:36:06):
One of the things that the Trump administration and Republicans
in Washington, as long as they have control, can do
to cement a legacy is to really get at that
administrative state. Take that doge idea, right, and really supercharge
that really begin to change the way that washed operates.
We're not going to see that deficit debt go away overnight,
but if we can begin to get at some of
that administrative state stuff and really zero in on getting

(01:36:29):
government more efficient and operating better, which is going to
take a combination of congressional action and executive courage, we
can then get to in that long run, get to
a better place. And so I think, you know, some
of that is promises made later on. I think Brian
Wright and I'm not eftical to that. And it's why
working in a grassroots organization like AFP, I know we're

(01:36:50):
going to be committed to.

Speaker 4 (01:36:51):
Continuing to hold folks feet to the fire. Right. We
don't see this as something that gets done.

Speaker 13 (01:36:54):
Everybody celebrates the tick or tap parade happens, and we
all go back and just wait to see what happens next.
We're our organization right, it remains committed to engaging in
that space. And so that's where I have a bit
of confidence, right, Bran, even though I'm jaded a a
lot of this stuff, I have a lot of confidence that, hey,
we'll get this done, keep working on this and then
what we really need to spend the next three years,
all now that we've maybe the tax that's permanent, is
getting that administrative state, aka the deep state, right under

(01:37:17):
control rained in and cementing that in some way so
that the next progressive administration to come through the White
House isn't able to undo a lot of the good
work that's being done right now in Washington.

Speaker 2 (01:37:29):
I know you're always going to remain hard at work
on these issues. It's just a question of, you know,
work AFP does and the desires of AFP consistent with
I think a vast majority of my listening audience and
me it's hurting the cats in DC and getting them
to do something that, oh my god, it might harm
my state. Ergo, I refuse to cut any program. Let's
talk a little bit more about what's in this particular

(01:37:50):
bill and what's what's going to happen going forward with
Donald and Neil for Americans for Prosperity, Pause for a moment,
and let me recommend saving fifteen hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 1 (01:37:58):
You can do that.

on a new carrier comfort system. But they've been keeping

Speaker 2 (01:39:41):
Gosha I seven forty fifty five KRCD talk station down
on a Neil Americans for Prosperity on talking about the
so called big beautiful bill. All right, so we got
the permanent tax cuts in there. Some of the other highlights.
I love the work requirement for Medicaid for people who
are capable of working. I mean, no one who is
truly on life margin disabled and others are going to

(01:40:02):
lose Medicaid, and this is a big talking point for
the Democrats. Oh my god, all these people are gonna lose. Well,
if you just work eighty hours a month, which isn't
a big ask, go to school, participate in community service
or something, then you'll be able to keep your Medicaid benefit.
So I don't consider that too much of an ask.

Speaker 1 (01:40:21):
Donald.

Speaker 2 (01:40:21):
And it also may liberate people from the ubilical court
of government because, as I've been harping on, there are
so many trade jobs out there that you can earn
while you learn, and also learn a career level trade.
So use this time to your advantage and don't have
to worry about being on Medicaid anymore.

Speaker 13 (01:40:37):
Donovan, Well, yeah, and actually on that, I agree one
hundred percent on that. I think that's really important policy.
And one of the things I was actually just yesterday
in Columbus with the Associated Builders in Contracts, Yeah, the
merit based construction workers, right, and they were talking about
all the jobs that are available. They had Dave Yoh's
Lieutenant governor and the Lieutenant governor come through and trust

(01:41:00):
and they were talking about the opportunities out there. And
so yeah, and I think that's part of what we
see in this bill right through those Medicaid work recurements.

Speaker 4 (01:41:06):
What we're doing is we're saying, hey, you.

Speaker 13 (01:41:08):
Know, government can be a handout, but not a handout,
right that'll adage. And that's really one of the things,
right the biggest driver in state budgets right now, Brian, Right,
half of the Ohio state budget goes to healthcare because
of these federal programs. And when you talk to lawmakers
in Columbus while they're doing we're working on different things,
trying to find different waivers. In a particular Representative Ville

(01:41:31):
identified potentially even six billion plus in waste that may
be there because of a lack of oversight. What we
really need the federal government to do is loosen up
its rules and restrictions so that the states can have
more flexibility to run these programs that are and more
efficiently as long as we're going to have the requirement
to have them. And so I think that is an
important part of the bill and something they get done

(01:41:52):
in a good way.

Speaker 2 (01:41:53):
Yeah, no question about that. The one other thing I
was disappointed in is increasing this salt deduction. I mean,
we're just it's a gift the American taxpayers are shouldering
the burden of high tax states like New York, New
Jersey and California with the increase in the salt deduction.
But you know, damn it, those Republicans wouldn't vote for
the whole bill unless they got what they wanted, which

(01:42:14):
is a subsidy for their high tax states.

Speaker 4 (01:42:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 13 (01:42:18):
Well, I mean that's a that's an element of this
the y raging caucus that you've got to bring together
right across the country. But I do think, yeah, as
long as we continue to subsidize salt, one of the
one you know, one of the things I said several
times and a lot of folks I think think the
same way is, you know, make these folks pay their
high taxes. They're in blue states like New York and California,
right that imposed high burden taxes on them. The only

(01:42:41):
way you change the political culture is by creating that
pain point. That pain point ought to be you're going
to pay your high tax bill until you elect good
conservatives who recognize that that money is not you know,
Sacramentos or New York Cities, it's your money exaggated in
your pocket.

Speaker 2 (01:42:56):
But I think that was the original idea behind the
concept of capping it, you know, I mean, they will say, no, Moss,
I cannot afford the outrageous tax bill I'm paying because
I no longer can deduct this these taxes from my
federal income taxes. We need to get people out of office,
we need to have our taxes lowered. So it just
didn't happen, Donovan, That's just it just didn't happen. So

(01:43:17):
now they got a little more flexibility. Although it is
capped at five hundred thousand dollars annual income, correct, Yeah, I.

Speaker 13 (01:43:25):
Think it's a little just a little higher than that.
But yeah, there's something like that. So, you know, the
progressive the folks who say they're rich don't pay enough.
I guess the retroll continue to pay a little more
in these coastal elite states. But yeah, I mean, I
think that gets at a bigger problem though. It's something
that you know, I think we need to continue to
beat the drum on.

Speaker 4 (01:43:41):
And be consistent and say, you know, the.

Speaker 13 (01:43:43):
Federal we obfuscate the actual cost of government when we
have these various deductions and credits and other things. And
the salt I think is one of the ones that's
in the mainstream conversation, and I think even beyond the
passage of this bill, continuing to talk about that and
what that the source than that causes, I think is important.

Speaker 4 (01:44:01):
And so you know, but uh, you.

Speaker 13 (01:44:04):
Do what you got to do to get the votes.
I guess, right, if you're don't envy the speaker and the.

Speaker 4 (01:44:08):
Role that he's in.

Speaker 2 (01:44:09):
Well, I appreciate that it repealed some of the Inflation
Reduction Act green new Green New Deal programs, uh, the
credits for electric vehicles, which I'm not a fan of.

Speaker 13 (01:44:22):
Well, yeah, and I think you know, one of the
things that you know, we can we'll get you to
point to. And I think in the Senate in an
area that there's still opportunity probably to identify some additional
savings and cost reductions. Here is in the Inflation Reduction Act. Right,
these subsidies, these great energy New Deal programs that you know,
the Biden administration put in, are you know, harmful and

(01:44:44):
costly to the American public, And we're underscored and the
cost they would be by the Congressional Budget Office. We
underestimated the impact of those to the national debt. And
so I think that's an area that you know, was
also up for discussion in the House. Unfortunately, they saw
the light and said, yeah, going to We're going to
end a lot of these subsidies. Hopefully, you know, whatever's
leftover the Senate can can tackle and take care of well.

Speaker 2 (01:45:06):
And speaking of the Senate, I know Raan Paul came
out in strong opposition to increase in the nation's debt
limit by what did the final bill have it for
a four trillion dollar increase or is it five? I
know it started out at five.

Speaker 13 (01:45:20):
Yeah, I think those those the CBO estimates somewhere around
there in there. But I think one thing that's important
right in the CBO estimates is they continually get this wrong.
The CBO gets this wrong right, and so I think
what you really need to be paying attention to. We've
seen more and more members begin to call that out
because it's the tactic that our opponents utilize very well

(01:45:44):
to slow roll tax reform, but we use vary in
effectively to stop bills like the Inflation Reduction Act from happening.

Speaker 4 (01:45:52):
They got they.

Speaker 13 (01:45:52):
Underestimated the Inflation Reduction Act by uh. I think they
said the CBOs that it would reduce the national death
death sorry by eighty billion dollars. Ultimately, recent scoring of
it has shown that it's actually increased the national deficit
by something like three hundred to five hundred and sixty
two billion dollars. And so they get these numbers wrong

(01:46:16):
a lot. And I think the thing we want to
remain focused on with this bill, right is it operates
from the premise that this is our money out Washington's,
and so tax cuts aren't don't contribute to the national debt.
Tax cuts go into our pockets. We invest that money
in the economy, and Washington sees that money come back.

Speaker 1 (01:46:33):
We hit five trillion.

Speaker 13 (01:46:34):
Dollars in federal revenues this year, right, five trillion dollars
in money the government's taking out of our pockets and
putting into Washington DC.

Speaker 4 (01:46:44):
We don't have a spending problem in Washington. We a.

Speaker 13 (01:46:46):
We don't have a revenue generation problem. We have a
spending problem. And yeah, we need to get that under control.
And centators like Rand Paul pointing that out are an
important part of getting the culture shift happen.

Speaker 2 (01:46:55):
Well, I presume the next call to action is going
to be pressure on senators. Where do you see this
shaking out. Let's just hypothetically say ran Paul gets his way,
and they put in a lot more cuts to federal spending.
They don't raise the nation's debt limit as much, or
perhaps don't raise it at all. They get rid of
the salt increase and take it back to ten grand

(01:47:17):
or something, some of the things that a lot of
these senators have advocated for. And it goes back to
the House with those in it. And then you got
the Republicans who are hold out saying no, no, I'm
not getting my way. Does it then collapse? Does it
then collapse? And we're back to square one?

Speaker 13 (01:47:32):
Donovan, Well, failure isn't an option here from the very beginning.
Failure isn't an option. Right, So the same proverbial gun
that's to the head of the sub of the US Senate,
right that if you fail to get this done, Americans
are going to see a tax increase occur. That exists
even if the Senate is able to accomplish a lot
of those goals, and it goes back to the House.

(01:47:53):
Right that the House still needs to get that done. Right,
because at the end of the day, this is about
making permanent the Trump tax cuts. So you know, I
think through this process, right, It's never beautiful, you know,
even when you're dealing with one big beautiful bill, it's
never beautiful. It never looks good, it's never very comfortable.
But I think what we have is that opportunity to
send it to get an even better product that then

(01:48:14):
goes to the House and the members have the same
there's still the same calculus they have today. They have
to get this done or else the American people are
going to see a tax increase. Average American will see
Ohio and I'll see a tax increase of fifteen hundred
dollars per year if Congress fails to act. And so
that's the mission, that's what they've got to get done.
And we'll continue to hold them accountable, feet to the
fire and focused on getting that accomplished in this bill

(01:48:36):
to the President's desk, ideally by the fourth of July.

Speaker 1 (01:48:40):
Well, my popcorns out and I'm waiting.

Speaker 7 (01:48:42):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:48:42):
The one thing that's it's rarely brought up, and I
being a firearms enthusiast myself and a lot of my
listeners appreciate the Second Amendment right to keep them bare arms.
The gun suppressors that got rid of the two hundred
dollar attacks on the gun suppressor? Has it removed them completely?

Speaker 1 (01:48:58):
Are they?

Speaker 2 (01:48:58):
Are they no longer sub to an FFL background check
and approval from the government.

Speaker 13 (01:49:04):
Ooh, I am not as dot in on that that
piece as you and how your listeners might be. Yeah, yeah,
I just know that they were the two hundred dollars
there well.

Speaker 2 (01:49:15):
A lot of good things in it, not enough is
from my perspective. But then you know, I just I
watch us with this existential threat of overspending, and no
one is willing to, you know, tear the band aid
off and say, you know what, we just can't continue
down this road. And this bill in large part continue
this down this the same profigate spending mode. And hopefully

(01:49:39):
the Senate wi will transform it and the House will
pass whatever the Senate passes. But we've got Donovan and
Neon Americans for Prosperity there to help us push it
along the way. What's the call to action for my
listeners today, Donovan?

Speaker 13 (01:49:51):
Well, absolutely, we need you to go to protect Prosperity
dot com. Protect Prosperity dot Com. That's been our overarching
campaign from the beginning this year to make the Trump
tax fits perm and that's what'll remain laser focused on
getting done and always appreciate your listeners who chip in
and help by reaching out to their senators, their congressman
to drive that very message you're sharing there, Brian, right
that we need a good product, we need to rent

(01:50:12):
in our debt, we need to make the tax fits permanent,
and we need to unleash American opportunity and prosperity once again.
And that's what you do by going to protect Prosperity
dot com.

Speaker 2 (01:50:22):
Protect Prosperity dot com. Get on, get over there, help out,
get in touch with your elected officials, and let's get
this job done. Donovan Neil, thanks for all that you
do at Americans for Prosperity. I appreciate hearing from me
every week and look forward to next week with another report.

Speaker 4 (01:50:36):
Always good chatting with you, Brian.

Speaker 2 (01:50:38):
I have a great week you too, called up at
seven fifty one I fifty five KRECD talk station. Another
word for chimneycarefireplaces do. It's a great time a year
to take care of your chimney safety issues. And one
of the things you might not think about is water
damage and so chimneycare fireplaces, though, is there at your
side doing a free exterior evaluation of your chimney. So
you got a chimney, you can call them and they
will look at it and inspected for free. They're experts

(01:50:59):
of what they do and they've been around locally own
and operated since nineteen eighty eight eight plus with a
better business bureau. If they find any problems out there,
they certainly can solve them for you. So avoid a
massive problem with water damage by getting that free inspection.
If you have a woodburning fireplace or stove, get the
woodburning sweep in evaluation the Spring Special. It's only one
sixty nine ninety nine thorough video camera inspection and certified

(01:51:22):
chimney sweep taking care of the sweeping. Figure out if
you had a chimney fire already, Yeah, your lining will
probably be cracked. You don't want to burn your house down.
That's what an uncleaned chimney flu can lead to. So
let's take care of that. And that way, you know,

Very happy Wednesday to you, Judgentopolitano, bottom of the hour.
In the meantime, please welcome back, proudly representing Ohio's second District,
Congressman David tail Or. Good you have you back on
the fifty five KRC Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (01:52:23):
Congressman Morning Brian, thanks for having me back on.

Speaker 2 (01:52:27):
Well, I know you're a yes vote because only to
vote to know Davidson and Congressman Massey the one big,
beautiful bill. It's got a lot of good in it,
I'll have to admit. But what my big concern is
I want to bounce it off your head. Uh, it
doesn't quite cut enough. We spend an outrageous amount of
money and I was hoping that they would it would
represent a much much larger cut from government expenditures over

(01:52:51):
the next decade is calculated by the CBO, which we
all have a question mark about their calculations, but any
anticipation that we're going to get cuts to spending down
the road at some point, Congressman.

Speaker 7 (01:53:04):
I certainly hope so Brian, that the Big Beautiful Bill
does have one point six trillion plus dollars and cuts,
and I agree with you one hundred percent that's not enough.
We all like to see the fraud wasting abuse that
the Doge found included in this Unfortunately, to pass the
Bird Rule, it has to be mandatory spending under the

(01:53:28):
Big Beautiful Bill, and the Doge fraud, waste and abuse
they found is primarily discretionary spending, so we'll have to
do that a different way. It absolutely has to be done, Unfortunately,
and frustratingly, it can't be done through this bill. I
do think that, as you mentioned already, the CBO scoring
is sort of unfair to the bill, and not surprisingly

(01:53:52):
they're historically a little bit biased against Republican legislation. But
they're using a growth rate of I think one point
six percent, which you leave the calculation that we're going
to add a bunch of money to the deficit. I
think growth is going to be double that or better.
You were all watching in real time the choices of
dollars of not just international investment, but American companies investing

(01:54:15):
in on shoring their operations. So I think the numbers
are misleading. But I also agree that we need to
make deeper cuts to our spending. I think this bill
does a pretty good job as a first step on that.

Speaker 2 (01:54:29):
Yeah, and I guess I agree with you completely about
the opportunity for much much larger prosperity and growth. Businesses
have to plan, and if they see tax cuts expiring
and they know they're going to get hit with a
bigger tax bill, they tend to contract their level of investment.
So if the Senate were to move forward with this
and at least include whatever that they come up with

(01:54:51):
and memorialize these tax cuts as permanent, I think that
creates the reliability that many businesses are looking on, and
we'll probably see even more investment.

Speaker 7 (01:55:00):
Absolutely, and there's a lot of encouragement for businesses to
do those very things. Or the Tax Cuts and Jobs
Act of twenty seventeen is made permanent. Here the one
ninety nine a deduction for small businesses not only made permanent,
but increase from twenty to twenty three percent, So businesses
are getting that benefit. Whereas you know, if this bill

(01:55:21):
wasn't passed, they were looking at a forty seven percent
tax rate, which is just going to run an unbelievable
number of small businesses completely out of business. The death
tax cap is double to making small businesses and farms
much more easily transferred from one generation to the next.
Keeping family businesses and the family is crucial, especially in

(01:55:41):
the second district. We have so many family farms and
other family businesses that we want to see protected for
generations to come. It allows for you know, one hundred
percent expensing and immediate expensing for buildings and structures used
in in agriculture. Overall, they're estimating about it ten billion
dollar reduction in taxes for American farmers overall. So there's

(01:56:04):
a lot of very positive things in this bill. We'll
see what kind of version comes back from the Senate.
But I'm enthusiastic about it. And you know, as I said,
it's just the first step, but it's a good one.

Speaker 2 (01:56:16):
Well, and something I think we're all experiencing right now.
And you know, I guess you can give credit to
the Trump administration. I know we're not paying nearly as
much at the at the at the gas pump, and
I know that as far as domestic energy production is concerned,
new oil and gas leasing and energy exploration exploration are
part of this bill which might help even more.

Speaker 7 (01:56:37):
Absolutely, And there's even the opportunity for increased leases in
for coal and timber on federal land, which could be
a real boon for the Second District. I mean all
over the country, but I'm always thinking about the Second District. First,
of course, we have the Way National Forest, which it
could be could be logged responsibly, and many other opportunities

(01:56:59):
for energy production in the Second District especially. I was
keen to see the the iory tax credits for wind
and solar rolled back and ye or they're actually eliminated.
But it was super important for our district that those
nuclear credits were not stripped away and those were protected

(01:57:21):
because you know, we have the only American owned uranium
enrichment facility in the country, and there's a lot of
buzz around that area. Oh, everybody's leaning towards the small
modular nuclear reactors, and that could be the epicenter of that.
You know, the second District can get back to being
the energy producing capital that it once was.

Speaker 2 (01:57:43):
I couldn't agree with you more. And that's one area
that I'm really excited about. Small modular reactors. You don't
need a giant cooling tower. They're basically cookie cutter in
that you can one size fits all. They're not have
to be tailor made any specific region. We do have
the materials to build them and the opportunity to them.
I had a conversation with I hope next Governor VI
vig Ramaswami. He is excited about the exact same thing,

(01:58:06):
making Ohio the energy production capital of the country. And
I think that's absolutely achievable. If we can just cut
back the regulatory burden and the environmental challenges that seem
to stand in the way of us getting literally anything
done in this country, man, we could really make a
mark in this world.

Speaker 7 (01:58:23):
Absolutely, and that's a focus also this administration. You know,
the all the neeper requirements for we all want these
projects to be done safely, but there's no reason that
should take nine or ten years to get these things done.
You know, Let's let's speed up the process. Do it safely,
do it quickly and get the benefits roll in for

(01:58:45):
Americans because all these big energy demanding businesses are coming
to our area. Honestly, we're getting data centers and things
like that that should require massive amounts of energy, and
you know it has to come from somewhere, It has
to from all sources in order for us to meet
the demand of the future. And when it's real hot
or real cold in the second district, we're redlining our

(01:59:07):
ability to produce. And then we've got these big companies
coming to our area that are going to demand much more.
And the math doesn't work unless we start producing more energy.

Speaker 2 (01:59:17):
And I know there's a huge demand out there for
military hardware and equipment, and we're seen to be behind
the eight ball and keeping up with say, the likes
of China in terms of, you know, building submarines and
ships and the like. But one hundred and forty three
billion dollars in additional defense spending, we're up to a
trillion dollars. They haven't been able to pass an audit
the last eight or so times. And I will doge ever,

(01:59:39):
be unleashed on the Defense Department and look at their
spending because something tells me that the money isn't going
where it's most needed, and that's those valuable, the war
fighting materials that we need to actually engage in our
defense and actually to help other countries who are interested
in purchasing our defense items.

Speaker 7 (01:59:59):
Yeah, I think the there. I know there's been discussions
of that being one of the their next places to
go give a good look to. And no one has
any like you said, no one has any big objection
to two dollars being spent for our military readiness and
especially now, and we have a military or a Secretary
of Defense that's that's focused on the things that that

(02:00:22):
are Our military is supposed to do as you, as
you always put so so eloquently, you kill the enemy
and break their stuff exactly.

Speaker 1 (02:00:30):
Thank you. I appreciate that, Congressman.

Speaker 7 (02:00:33):
That's the job of the military, and they're being refocused
on that. And there's thirty four billion dollars in the
big beautiful bill for ship building, specifically because we're being
out built at at a rate that's not even close
by China, and you know, in the long run, that's
a disadvantage we can't live with. Those dollars have to
be spent appropriately. So I certainly hope that the DOGE

(02:00:55):
team takes a good look at that, and uh, make
sure those dollars are spent a actively. You know, we've
got the all the military defense contractors, some of the
best ones in the world, but we have to make
sure the dollars that we send in them are getting
one hundred percent value for the taxpayers.

Speaker 2 (02:01:11):
Fair enough, let's pause. I'll bring you back be as
I know the USA Car Act is part of this.
You can let my listeners know about that, because I
know you were behind that. Plus want to talk to
you about Connor's Law, which you announced the introduction of
that bill. So let's bring Congressman David Taylor back proudly
again representing Ohio's second district. Be right back after these

(02:01:32):
brief words.

Florence into downtown. Chuck ingramon fifty five kr SEA the
talk station.

Speaker 2 (02:02:28):
They say seventeen to fifty five KOSD talk station and
make that eighty eighteen. Find time to see with Congressman
David Taylor talking about the big beautiful bill, and I
know it contains the USA car Act. You were a sponsor.
I guess Senator Bernie Moreno from Ohio sponsor that you
were in favor of. But what does that do for
the American people?

Speaker 7 (02:02:48):
Yeah? Thanks Brian. The credit where credits do? This was
Sentator Marino's idea and we loved it. Bills get sponsored
on one side or the other and you need somebody
to take it up on the other side. So he
sponsored this in the Senate and we are very happy
to do so on the House side. What it does
is makes your car loan interest deductible if you buy

(02:03:09):
an American car fully deductible and your income taxes, which
you know, it does two things. It makes cars more affordable,
encourages purchase of American cars, and it creates jobs for great,
good paying jobs for American workers. So it's uh, you know,
there's no real downside here. And I was glad to
see it included in the in the big beautiful bill
because as uh As Congressman Winster Boways said that quoted

(02:03:33):
Ronald Reagan saying, there's no limit to what can be
accomplished if nobody cares who gets the credits.

Speaker 1 (02:03:38):
We just want the good stuff to get don.

Speaker 2 (02:03:41):
So does this does this a deduction come in spite
of the salt deduction or the which I know is
gone to forty thousand dollars if you're not itemizing because
you don't have enough itemization to reach that level, do
you still get to deduct the car interest payment loan
or on your loan.

Speaker 7 (02:03:58):
Yes, with a little bit of a change from the
original language. I believe that's going to mean. We don't
know the final language of the big beautiful bill, honestly,
but hopefully the goal on the other side is that
you don't have to itemize. You get it either way.

Speaker 2 (02:04:11):
Okay, So a separate line on the income tax when
you're feeling out your income tax fair enough, Now, something
I understand you're going to be talking about later today
introducing a bill Conner's Law. And I was not aware
that this was a problem, but apparently it is. Commercial
drivers CDL driver's license holders can be a bit of
a problem out on the roads these days because we

(02:04:33):
have so many not only just illegal immigrants, but folks
out there driving around that they don't understand and can't
read or speak English, which when I think of road signs,
I think that's a red flag.

Speaker 7 (02:04:45):
Yeah, absolutely, and it was. There's a President Trump issued
in an executive order to that effect, and we're trying
to codify that at a law, because I mean, that's
just a common sense thing. Gets his name from a
young man who has killed by a distracted truck driver
who found not to be able to speak or read English.
Can't read a sign that says slow down, accident ahead.

(02:05:08):
You know, those kind of things obviously are unsafe. There's
a million different situations where it's unsafe for a driver,
especially of a big rig or a big heavy vehicle
of any kind, not to be able to read warnings
of what's on the road ahead. So I can't imagine
this one doesn't have some bipartisan support, and hopefully we'll

(02:05:28):
be able to get it across the finish line soon
and make our road safer.

Speaker 2 (02:05:32):
Well, I got a big question mark floating in my head.
I don't know how someone ultimately obtains a CDL permit
if they can't speak English. Isn't there reading materials and
things of that nature that go along with obtaining one
of those?

Speaker 7 (02:05:44):
Well, like any other program, I'm sure you can get
in whatever language you want as far as that goes.
But you would think, yeah, there would have been a
red flag from the beginning that if you're going to
get a CDL you need to be able to read
the signs on the road. Apparently that slipped through the cracks.

Speaker 2 (02:06:01):
Apparently it's a hazard for all of us out there,
especially people like me who do ride motorcycles. Rights, it's
out there from a size perspective. All right, well, I
guess I'm asking to read Tee Lee's Congressman David Taylor.
But the Senate's going to have its way with it.
I know Ran Paul came out over the debt ceiling
increase and said he would never vote for something to

(02:06:22):
had the increase as large as it is. I know
some other Senators have expressed some concern they want more cuts.
Any sense of where this is going to go? And
I guess your reaction to if they do, you know,
lower the debt ceiling increase or lower the salt deduction
from forty grand where it is now in the BBB
to something where it was like ten thousand. Will you
lose a House members who would reject it out of

(02:06:45):
hand for those types of changes.

Speaker 7 (02:06:48):
Well, first, let me say I'm all for you know,
there's obviously, as we know, more room for spending cuts,
responsible spending cuts that don't hurt people who benefit from
you know, needed programs like Medicare, Medicaid snap. We don't
want our safety net weakened, and we can make a
lot more spending cuts without doing that. That being said,

(02:07:10):
we as you know, as the one vote margin to
pass the big beautiful bill. So we threaded the need
a little bit. Any real, big change is going to
make it tough when we go to conference. So now
the President Trump encouraged the Senate to make changes, and yeah,
the boss, So I hope they may make good changes

(02:07:31):
that we can all live with. And because there's so
much good in this bill, the last thing I want
to see happen is nothing right.

Speaker 2 (02:07:37):
Well true, Listen, everybody's got to go campaign and even
the folks in New York, New Jersey and California push
for the increase in salt. If they say no because
of changes to that, for example, then they're the ones
that have to answer their their voters and the constituents
that well, because of them, we didn't get the permanent
tax cuts in Shrine, which are going to cause this

(02:07:58):
economy to take off.

Speaker 7 (02:08:00):
Yeah, to me, the salt issue is the tail that's
wagging the dog. You know, it's it's, it's it's it
affects very few parts of the country, but it's it
is by proxy affecting everybody because it's it's you know,
it's holding up so much good progress for you know,
every expaying American family, every American family period. If we

(02:08:21):
if we ultimately don't get us across the line because
of uh the salt situation, that will be extremely disappointed.

Speaker 2 (02:08:28):
Well, I'll look forward to legislation and shrining the DOGE
cutbacks into law, and I hope you engage in efforts
to get DOGE over the Department of Defense and start
rifling through their records to figure out where that money
is going, because I don't know. The fact that they
weren't able to pass an audit like eight times in
a row is troubling to me given the level of
money that we send over there. Congressman David Taylor, thank

(02:08:51):
you so much for your time today and you're that
you spent with my listeners in me this morning. I
wish you best of luck and keep up the good fight.

Speaker 7 (02:08:59):

don't forget to listen to the judge. He's next on
fifty five KRC, the talk station.

Speaker 1 (02:10:38):
Wondering where he was going with that one.

Speaker 5 (02:10:41):
Yeah, don't don't you let him have breakfast? Don't you
feed the man.

Speaker 1 (02:10:47):
Someone?

Speaker 2 (02:10:48):
I think someone goes back there and checks on him
every twenty four hours just to make sure he's okay,
you're on or beyond that we leave him to his
own devices.

Speaker 3 (02:10:56):
Anyways, Joe Strecker, bring him a cheeseburger, will you exactly?

Speaker 2 (02:11:01):
Judge Ennedapolitano every Wednesday at this time on the fifty
five KRE SEE Morning show, which I love, love talking
to the Judge, and I always appreciate getting your column.
My apologies for not sending you an email in response,
your honor. I failed to check my personal email yesterday
evening when I was preparing for the show, so I
got your column this morning. But I'll tell you, always outstanding,

(02:11:22):
always a wonderful read, always profoundly in line with our
core principles and constitutional values, and well our God given
rights which you bring up all the time.

Speaker 1 (02:11:34):
But before we get to that.

Speaker 3 (02:11:36):
The column is about efforts by the And thank you
for your kind comments, Brian. And you needn't reply every
time I send it to you. You're the only one
who does.

Speaker 2 (02:11:48):
Oh well, I value our friendship, and I think you
know honestly, when again I read it, I'm always impressed
by it. I just want to let you know. And
sometimes I'll send a warning shot over the value my
listeners are going to really take issue with this, or
just give you a heads up.

Speaker 1 (02:12:03):
But no, I.

Speaker 3 (02:12:04):
Times sometimes missus Thomas takes issue with it.

Speaker 2 (02:12:09):
I don't know that she's ever been critical of your column.
She has chimed in and said she agrees with you wholeheartedly.
And I know you remembered that one before we dive
in real quick here though, because it's along I think
it's along the same lines. The Supreme Court the other
day declined to review a free speech case involving a
student who was kicked out of school for wearing a

(02:12:30):
T shirt that said there are only two genders. And
I was troubled by that because isn't it a scientific
fact x X and Y and X and X in
terms of the Constitution or the chromosomal reality, that there
are two genders, and that they deemed it offensive in
some way. Did you get a chance to see what

(02:12:50):
the lower court said on that and the standard they
apply to that.

Speaker 3 (02:12:53):
Yes, yes, In fact, I discussed it this morning on NEWSMAXIM.
We'll be discussing it again in about an hour. It's
deeply disturbing. I would have joined the descent were I there.
Of Justices Sa, Thomas and Alito. I'm really surprised at
justice courts that truth the libertarian there. Now, this was

(02:13:15):
not an opinion.

Speaker 5 (02:13:16):
By the court.

Speaker 3 (02:13:17):
It was just a decision not to interfere with a
lower court opinion. But the lower court opinion really is
grounded in another opinion of the Supreme Court called Morse
against Frederick, better known by its absurd moniker bong hits

(02:13:37):
for Jesus.

Speaker 5 (02:13:38):
So here's the history.

Speaker 3 (02:13:40):
In nineteen sixty nine, a young man last named Tinker
wore a belt buckle that was a peace sign and
the ward in Des Moines, Iowa, and the high school
suspended him and his parents suit who went to the
Supreme Court, very famous case Tinker versus Des Moines, and
the Supreme Court ruled, once you reach the age of reason.

Speaker 5 (02:14:01):
Which is about age seven.

Speaker 3 (02:14:03):
You have the freedom of speech, and you can wear
whatever insignia you want unless it actually causes disruption.

Speaker 5 (02:14:13):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (02:14:13):
That was the law until two thousand and twelve when
some crazy kid at a parade not in the school,
but a school parade across the street and up the
block from the school, held up a sign meaningless sign
that said, Bong hits.

Speaker 5 (02:14:31):
For Jesus, I remember that right.

Speaker 3 (02:14:34):
And he was suspended and he sued, and based on
Tinker versus des Moines, he prevailed, and the Board of
Education appealed, and he prevailed again. The Board of Education
appealed again, and the Supreme Court reversed.

Speaker 1 (02:14:52):
Do we lose him? Judge? Are you there?

Speaker 5 (02:14:59):
Somehow I lost you?

Speaker 1 (02:15:00):
But there you go. You ended it in the Supreme
Court reverse.

Speaker 3 (02:15:04):
They have to be disruption, but a fear of disruption
is enough to suppress the speech of the student. On
that fear, that subjective perception of school authorities was based
the lower court rulings in this case involving the kid
stating a statement that is either a fact or an opinion,

(02:15:26):
but either way it's protected speech. But not not in
this Massachusetts town.

Speaker 2 (02:15:32):
Well, I found the First Circuit's language very troubling along
these lines, and I guess I'm paraphrase to a certain degree.
I'm just reading from the quotes in the Wall Street Journal.
Schools may ban passive speech message of the messages quote
reasonably interpreted, a close quote to demean anybody's characteristics of
personal identity, and if it's reasonably forecasted to poison the

(02:15:56):
educational atmosphere due to its serious negative psycho logical impact
leading to substantial disruption. His shirt said there are only
two genders? How could you come to that conclusion? My
comment this morning was along the lines of, you know,
there are idiots out in the world to believe the
Earth is flat. If I had at T shirt that
said the Earth is round, some unhinged, easily emotional flat

(02:16:21):
earth are out there could maybe qualify under this language.

Speaker 1 (02:16:24):
It seems so crazy.

Speaker 3 (02:16:26):
This is very, very dangerous to allow the government to
suppress speech on the basis of a subjective fear where
there's no objective harm. But you know, even hate.

Speaker 5 (02:16:39):
Speech is protected.

Speaker 3 (02:16:40):
In my view of this statement is absolutely protected speech
on the shirt of a then sixteen year old boy.

Speaker 5 (02:16:47):
I believe he's graduated by now.

Speaker 3 (02:16:50):
But this is what happens when the court tinker is
no pun intended from the tinker vi. Des Moines, this
is what happens when the court tinkers with the real
relationship between the government and the freedom of speech. This
first Circuit, which is basically New England First Third Court
of Appeals opinion, is worse for a free speech than

(02:17:15):
the Bong Hits for Jesus case is because they extended
it to the point of, well, if somebody reading your
speech could be offended, we can suppress the speech. Good God,
that could be offended. As you say, a flat Earth
person could be offended by the truthful statement that the

(02:17:36):
Earth is not flat. And I don't want to get
hung up on true I want to get hung.

Speaker 5 (02:17:42):
Up on opinion.

Speaker 3 (02:17:43):
Opinions don't have to be true, they just have to
be honestly held opinions to be protected exactly.

Speaker 2 (02:17:51):
And turning over to your column which focuses on the
endeavors of the Trump administration to crack down on free speech,
there is I mean, if you want to protest Israel,
you can protest Israel. If you want to say you're
pro Hamas or pro Palestine, you can say it out loud.
This is how we filter through and determine the good
guys and the bad guys based up our own personal

(02:18:12):
opinions and viewpoints of life. And you know, thank god,
we have the ability to do that so that way,
when a Nazi stands up and says I'm a Nazi,
we at least notice too. The state of Hell away fromact.

Speaker 3 (02:18:21):
But there's a Supreme Court opinion I'm forgetting the name
of it of relatively recent vintage, by which I mean
post World War two, which stands for that proposition it
is better to allow hatred out in the public. We
know who the haters are and we know what they're saying,

(02:18:42):
rather than if you suppress it, we don't know who
they are, what they're saying, or where it's coming from.

Speaker 5 (02:18:47):
That's a practical reason.

Speaker 3 (02:18:49):
The philosophical and juridical reason is Congress shall make no
law bridging the freedom of speech.

Speaker 5 (02:18:56):
Doesn't no law mean no law, don't mean no law.

Speaker 3 (02:19:01):
If it means something else, then there is no freedom
of speech. Then it's up to whatever the personality of
the justices want.

Speaker 2 (02:19:09):
But my understanding is somewhere there is a line that
can be cross and I've been arguing that, you know,
it's okay if you want to know, say pro Palestinian things,
or gathering a group on a college campus, as long
as you're following the the the legal rules that have
been established. You can't take over and occupy buildings and
prevent other students from the value of their tuition dollars, correct,

(02:19:33):
and you can't harm them.

Speaker 3 (02:19:34):
You can't take over a building and guy disguise that
takeover as free expression, because that is trespassing. That's combining
a criminal act with a protected act. So when you
combine the criminal act trespassing, taking over a building, kicking

(02:19:55):
the dean out, disrupting a class, with the expressive act
free Allstein or get rid of Palestine, whatever your opinion exactly,
that does not remove the sting or the criminality from
the criminal act. Now that's been the law of the
land for a long time. But without that criminal act,

(02:20:16):
all speech is protected, no matter who's offended by it.
In fact, one could argue, if the speech doesn't offend.

Speaker 5 (02:20:24):
What good is it?

Speaker 1 (02:20:31):
I love it? Oh, welcome to the fifty five KRC
Morning Show. You're honor.

Speaker 2 (02:20:37):
Somebody's offended about what I say on a daily basis.
So anyway, they fall to the category of batcrap insane
from my standpoint if they disagree with me.

Speaker 1 (02:20:45):
But that's a okay. We have different types in this world.

Speaker 4 (02:20:47):
Now.

Speaker 1 (02:20:48):
I guess.

Speaker 2 (02:20:50):
The Trump administration, though, is saying that they have failed
to protect Jewish students. Now, if we cross that line, occupy,
prevent these students from getting into class, harass them, harm
them in some physical way, uh the then that line
has been crossed. But can you, you know, defund a

(02:21:13):
school for their failure to act on these independent actions
of the students.

Speaker 1 (02:21:19):
I mean, how do we how do we know?

Speaker 3 (02:21:21):
The defunding is very problematic under the law because the
vast majority of federal funding, let's take Harvard, doesn't go
to Harvard as an institution. It goes to the independent
researchers who work at Harvard. They're the ones who apply
for the grants, They're the ones who propose what the

(02:21:43):
money will be used for, and they're the ones whose
proposals have been approved. The cash does go to Harvard,
and then Harvard pays these researchers. The researchers are typically professors, researchers,
doctors working in labs, have nothing whatsoever to do what's
happening in Harvard Yard or disciplining the students. Yet they're

(02:22:06):
the ones being punished, and you could argue, even though
I have a serious question with aid education because it's
not in the constitution, amen depriving all of us of
the fruits of their research. So this is a troublesome
area that the courts are going to have to unwind.
I think a federal judge did the right thing by

(02:22:27):
enjoining the President from suspending the aid until you.

Speaker 5 (02:22:32):
Can figure all of it out.

Speaker 3 (02:22:34):
You know, this is vicarious liability. You're going to punish
doctor Jones because of the decision of Administrator Smith making
up these names obviously to show there's two different people,
two different lines of authority. The researcher has nothing to
do with the demonstrations on the campus, but that's the

(02:22:56):
person who's being denied a livelihood.

Speaker 2 (02:23:00):
Fair enough and well explained. As always, Judge Nitapolitano can't
thank you enough for the time you smeoke my listeners
to me on the program. I certainly value your time
and who you talking to today.

Speaker 3 (02:23:11):
I have the Great Colonel Douglas McGregor at eleven o'clock
and ex CIA official Phil Geraldi.

Speaker 2 (02:23:20):
Of three Judging Freedom search for the podcast and hear
what the judge has to say when he's not on
the morning show until next week. My friend, it's always
a pleasure.

Speaker 5 (02:23:28):
Thank you, Brian, all the best.

Speaker 1 (02:23:29):
Thank you, sir.

Speaker 3 (02:23:30):
Please get Ingram a cheeseburger.

Speaker 2 (02:23:32):
We'll take care of that right after the show's over.
It's eight forty four at fifty five car se detalk station.
I'll be right back.

Speaker 1 (02:23:42):
D fifty five care or see the talking station. Happy Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (02:23:50):
I got a special edition of the Christopher Smith event tomorrow,
looking forward to him and Christopher on since we were
taking the holiday in honor of those who paid the
ultimate sacrifices service of their country on Monday, Memorial Day.
So looking forward to that. And there made a couple
of minutes here. I just thought this was rather in
some way comical, in some way extraordinarily frightening, considering we're

(02:24:11):
talking about nuclear weapons. Let's go to the comments from
North Korea on Trump's Golden Dome defense system, which you
may have heard about. He was back having to go
to Canada again, saying it would cost Canada sixty one
billion dollars to participate in the Golden Dome project. But
if they just gave up their rights and became a

(02:24:32):
fifty first state, they'd get it for free. I don't
know if that's going to convince Canada to go down
that road. I just wish you would drop that topic.

Speaker 1 (02:24:39):
That's just me.

Speaker 2 (02:24:42):
Anyway, though, join Yang officials calling the US initiative quote
the height of self righteousness, arrogance, high handed and arbitrary
practice continuing down through history. The US has justified its
move for space militarization, claiming that the perfect interception of
nuclear missiles by its enemy states flying toward its mainland

(02:25:03):
can be realized only by the introduction of space based
interception system. Under the pretext of defending its mainland, it
has been hell bent on building a missile defense system
targeting the independent sovereign states, including the Dpark. Really, the

(02:25:28):
clear reason is why the US is scheming to freeze
the so called threat from sovereign states as a pretext
for modernizing its missile defense system, persistently spinning out the
time worn sophism just like a guilty party filling this
filing the suit. First, it is to peremptively attained military
superiority in an all round way by justifying its hegemony

(02:25:49):
oriented moves for space arms build up and accelerating outer
space militarization behind the screen of the screen of mainland defense,
and to launch the military strike at the enemy states
at its will by relying on it in yeah, okay,
well that's North Korea pivoting over as we endeavored to

(02:26:12):
prevent Iran from achieving nuclear technology. Congressional Research Service issue
to report this past Friday that found that oh, look,
North Korea has produced enough fissile material in other words,
atomic bomb fuel to build up to ninety nuclear warheads,
described as a dramatic increase from the twenty to sixty

(02:26:33):
warheads it was believed capable of building last year. Congressional
Records Research Service argued North Korea continues to advance its
nuclear weapons and missile programs despite UN Security Council sanctions
and high level diplomatic efforts. The country's ballistic missile testing,
military parades, and policy statements suggests in North Korea is
continuing to build a nuclear war fighting capability designed to

(02:26:56):
evade regional ballistic missile defense UH inambited book, can you
reconcile those positions.

Speaker 1 (02:27:07):
One more time? On that Joe in about there you are.

Speaker 2 (02:27:14):
CRS had various estiments that Yoyang has assembled about fifty
warheads to date, has enough material to make forty more.
Congressional researchers cited a Department Defense analysis that found North
Korea is now postured to conduct a seventh nuclear test
at the time of its choosing. All right, so they're
gonna they're gonna scream at us for improving our defense capabilities.

(02:27:36):
That will be defense capabilities. That's what the Golden dumbas
for to defend us. Now, could it be used offensively?
I suppose it could. The pretext for building it though,
is we've got folks out there in the world, Russia, China,
et cetera, and maybe even someday in North Korea with
hypersonic weapons that can evade whatever defense mechanisms we have
right now. Those could be used offensively. Meanwhile, North Korea

(02:28:03):
is struggling, to you know, busily building all kinds of
nuclear warheads. And so apparently all of our diplomatic efforts,
our isolation in North Korea or itsself isolation, as the
case may be, our diplomatic efforts and our sanctions haven't
stopped them. From getting nuclear weapons. So Iran's next. It
appears it seems likely, doesn't it. It's like drones. You know,

(02:28:25):
we've got them for a long time. We developed the
technology and next thing, you know, every blanke in country
in the world is hitting people with drone strikes. Ukraine
what one of the premier manufacturers of drones. We have
terrorist organizations now using drones. You know, you're just it's
really like you just a moment in time away from

(02:28:47):
the technology getting out into the rest of the world
and everyone having it. I don't know if the world
will be a safer place if everybody's got nuclear arms
of mutually are a sure destruction works for US visa
VI the Soviet Union and China, Will it work with
US visa the any other nation out in the world
that happens to well get itself a nuclear weapon?

Speaker 1 (02:29:09):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (02:29:11):
I just know that I found North Korea's slamming Trump's
Golden Dome defenses some pretty comical. Given the efforts and
it's been engaging in for the last several decades to
obtain nuclear power or nuclear weaponry. A fifty five coming
to a fifty six ten and tomorrow for the smither event.
I hope you have a wonderful day. Thank you, Joe
Strecker for the Jack lining up, Jackatherton for the Big Picture.
