Speaker 1 (00:00):
When you turn on your work computer, turn us off
love listening all day fifty five KRC to work with
the Tay stories while.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Do you work?
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Hey AATO five Right now at fifty five dr SE
Detalk Station Abbay Friday, bottom of the hour, we get
to hear from my heart mety aviation expert Jay Ralf
in the meantime, Welcome back to the fifty five KRC
Morning Show. Probably representing the second District Congressman David Taylor,
It's great to have you on the program. Congressman, welcome back.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Good morning, Brian, thanks for having me.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
It's too bad we don't have anything to talk about.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
What will we do?
Speaker 1 (00:40):
This is a question of where we start. Well, let
us first first observe it, isn't it interesting? With no
change in legislation, With no new bills or laws enacted,
the border went from wide open with approximately ten to
twenty million people flowing in over four years under the
Biden administration, to magically shut down practically completely. I saw
an article this morning apparently there were no illegal entries
(01:03):
into the country at our southern border in the last month,
which sounds remarkable, But all it took was a change
of administration and change of policies with no action from Congress.
But we're left with the aftermath, and of course that
leads us to the protest going on in LA and elsewhere.
ICE is just doing its job, right, Congressman, It's a
(01:24):
federal law. They're merely there to enforce the federal law.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Absolutely, I don't think anybody thought that this problem wud
be easy to solve. This intentionally created problem by the
last administration would be easy to solve. And then when
you add in the Democratic officials in Los Angeles and
California at large working against it, it creates a terrible situation.
(01:53):
They should be cooperating and helping our federal agents. Instead
they're doing everything they can to exacerbate the problem. You know,
it's happened. You know, it's been going on since I
got sworn into office. That Democrats have said they're going
to resist, and they're going to resist in the streets,
and and that's exactly what we're seeing now and in
a lot of places, not just La Seattle, New York,
(02:15):
lots of places in Chicago as well.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
And you know, the the the interesting thing is is
the the the the the left politicians Gavin newsom or
Maribas or uh you know up in in Chicago. Flip
the narrative on its head. ICE is allowed to enter
your neighborhood. They are there to round up and right
now the mostly criminal elements in the among the illegal community.
(02:41):
So they're allowed to do that. And when you stand
in the way of them execusing their lawful function and
entering places where these folks can be found and are
found and throw rocks at them and and assault them,
that's when the National Guard gets called up. It isn't
the National Guard showing up first, followed by a team
of ICE agents. You and you invite the National Guard
(03:03):
because of your your anti ICE enforcement behavior. But then
they try to say, oh my god, you know the
Marines have shown up, maybe because Donald Trump, evil man
or whatever. End of democracy. I mean, they throw these
these terms and connections together, but they don't follow the
order of reality. If you don't resist, they don't show up.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Right. Well, you saw Aaron Bath prevents the Los Angeles
Police Department from from doing their job. When even when
ICE agents were being assaulted and needed help or pinned
down in a building, uh, they she had the LA
police standing down. And then when President Trump sends in
the National Guard to assist UH. Governor Newsom goes to
(03:45):
the courts to try to rest control of the National
Guard back from the form the president, so they can't
help either. So it's very clear that the problem that
was created in the last administration was very intentional. They
worked very hard to spend a lot of political out
to give you all of these illegals here, and they're
going to they're proven, they'll go to the mat to
keep them here. So that's what that's what we're our
(04:08):
ice officials and border patrol officials are now dealing with. Well.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
I mean, given that Obama deported a whole ton of
illegal immigrants, I think this is illustrative of the house
of cards that California is. They've lost a lot of
their population, many of the wealthiest of them, because of
how poorly run the state is UH and the failure
of the priorities of the California government writ large. They
(04:33):
need to replace the population with somebody, and this was
a convenient way of doing it, and that's why I
think they're fighting so hard to keep the illegal population
from being deported.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
That's exactly right. They're slated blue seats in the next census.
They know that along with the Illinois and New York
And now now you see where they're fighting to keep
the illegal aliens, you know, on the rolls there where
they could be counted even though they're not citizens. They'll
be counted in the and they'll get representation. Like as
it's happening now, are many of the state seats in
(05:07):
Congress are actually representing non.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Citizens well, and as cash Battel revealed, apparently many of
them may very well be voting with fake IDs created
by the Chinese Communist Party. I'm not sure if you're
aware of that development of the recent revelations from cash
Bettel about what happened back in twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Yeah, I did see that. And you know, they've been
giving illegal aliens driver's licenses in these states for a
long time too, and with your driver's license they auto
register you to vote in many places. So I'm sure
quite a few of them have been voting in those states.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Most notably with mail in ballots. Amazing how when you
talk about this is how this all sort of lines up.
Some people are suggesting it's a conspiracy theory about the
twenty twenty election being stolen. I don't know. I've never
been on board with that. But the more and more
(06:02):
of this information comes out, the more I'm I'm lining
up with the folks who think that the election was
stolen in favor of Joe Biden. Anyway, So moving on
to the the the the violence inherent in the system. Again,
this is something the left rallies against and claims are
not responsible for. I don't see a whole lot of conservative,
(06:25):
right leaning individuals committing acts of violence against anybody. This
is this this genda message that came during the Biden administration,
and somehow the entire world was filled with a bunch
of right wing nazi activists. When every act of violence
is committed by the likes of Antifi, the Black Lives Member,
Black Lives Matter, Marxists, UH and so forth, the people
(06:46):
who try to assassinate Donald Trump. There seems to be
a pattern here, and it's not what the left wants
us to believe.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
No, you're right, Brian, And there's a lot of frustration,
I'm sure on the on the on the left with
having lost the House and or not get gotten the House,
lost the White House and not having the Senate, and
we've seen it from every one of the what passes
for Democrat leadership and their calls for action with fighting
in the streets here, from Kamala Harris, Chuck Schumer to
(07:18):
the King, Jeffries, the mayor of Chicago, you name it,
they all called for action in the streets. And for
all the rhetoric at def that Democrats are currently ineffectual,
apparently that call is being heard.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Well, it seems to be for lack of messaging. They
would have to call for action in the streets if
they had a message that they projected that people would embrace, like, Oh,
that's a great policy. I would like to vote for
you because you've offered some solutions to some of the problems.
They've gone so far to the farthest left of the
of the party, the elean Omar and AOC wing of
(07:53):
the party that none of the more sensible Democrats. I mean,
isn't it an odd situation, Congressman, when Letterman turns out
to be one of the more reasonable people in the
Democrat Party.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Absolutely, you know, like just like you said, there there's
no eighty twenty issue. They don't want to jump on
the twenty percent uh side of And I think there
when you when you chase the friend, you're you're going
to disaffect the more moderate Democrats. And I've said that
several places. This is a this is a prime time
to to with, you know, with with open arms talk
(08:28):
to some of these these the Democrat voters that I mean,
I have friends and relatives who are Democrat voters. And
now at the time they say, look, these people are
not representing your views. Maybe you should consider your your
your continuing support of them, if that's if they're going
to continue to chase the very edge of the left.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Yeah, and you know what I have to observe, and
you don't necessarily need to be put in the spot
of having a comp comment on this. I think the
Republican Party ultimately benefited from the Supreme Court decision saying
abortion is a state issue, a decision that I agree with.
I mean, the abortion is not mentioned in the in
the United States Constitution. It seems to me something covered
by the Tenth Amendment and always should have been.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
But we had Roe v.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Wade, and it started this political you know, for for decades,
this division among federal politicians. Now that that is no
longer the subject matter of Congress or the Senate, the
House representats of the Senate. It's free the Republican Party
on a federal level of having to to take sides
on that very divisive issue. And whether you like it
(09:32):
or not, a majority of people were in favor of
women having a choice on it. So you're able to,
i think, effectively siphon off a lot of people who
would vote on that one issue over the Republican side,
which is one of you know, greater freedoms and hopefully
fiscal responsibility. Will see how the budget turns out, but
you know, the more the great idea is that the
(09:53):
Republican Party always had.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
So I agree, and I agree that the concept there's
no basis for the federal government to be dealing with
with abortion. There's no basis for it. And the tenth
Amendment requires that if there's no basis in the Constitution
for the station aimless. So that's rightly where it is.
(10:17):
Let's pause.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Let's pause. We'll bring Congressman David Taylor back. We'll talk
about the current budget process and also some of the
recent bills, like, for example, his Water Resources Technical Assistance
Review Act. You're gonna have to explain that when we're
listening on audience, Congressman Taylor, be right back after a
quick word here for Gate of Heaven Cemetery. Uh, you know,
quiet contemplation and reflection. Gatehevan Cemetery is really beautiful. Uh.
(10:43):
And you know it's with with the weather. It's a
little human of course, but you know, just being a
nice that the flowers and the landscaping and the beauty
generally speaking of Gate of Heaven, it is a welcoming
environment and a great place to remember your loved ones.
You might want to consider your options there for the afterlife,
and you might want to consider a place for prayer
(11:04):
and reflection and maybe a little meditation. And you're in
the best possible place, a Gate of Heaven. Gate of
Heaven a sacred place for sacred people in honoring life
in this gorgeous environment. To learn more, head on over

Fifty five krc A nineteen. If you have KRCD talk stay.
(11:24):
Sharon bryn Thomas with representative of David Taylor. Congressman Taylor's
here represent of the second District of Ohio, and we
have this reconciliation process that's going on, and I'll be
honest with you, sir, I don't think it cuts nearly
enough out of spending to the extent that we are
engaging in even greater spending, to me is a non starter.
(11:45):
I know I'm alone in that, at least the Congressman
Massey and I are alone in our corners with that philosophy.
But it's over on the Senate side now, and they
made some proposals, one of which was kicking that forty
thousand dollars salt increase down to back to ten and
leaving it where it is, which I embrace completely. Where
are you in terms of what the Senate has done?
(12:06):
And are you satisfied? And would you embrace what the
Senates changed? Where are you in the process?
Speaker 2 (12:11):
Congressman Yeah, Bryan, By and large, I'm in agreement with
what the Senate's doing. I agree that there's room for
a lot more cuts. I do land on the on
the side of thinking this is a good step forward.
This won't be the last crack at reconciliation we get,
and I think this one will in the end. Nomb
(12:32):
says one point four trillion dollars will be produced from
the depths that over ten years, which is you know,
in star contrast to the CBO scoring. But we both
know what the CBO scoring is usually looks like. But
I'm fine with the salt cap being dropped from forty
to ten. It's going to be a contentious issue in
(12:53):
the House with we have the narrow majority, and we
have represented us from California and New York, and there's
places that are out and about that, but they've we
hit Senator Marino and I had sponsored a bill about
car interesting deductible on your income taxes, and that's part
(13:13):
of the end up being part of the big beautiful bill. Now,
one change that the Senate made there was to instead
of making it applicable to all vehicles, is only applicable
to new vehicles. I'd rather see that stay applicable to both.
They increase the senior tax deduction. We were talking about
no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax
(13:35):
on social security. Although sound good, but because of the
Bird rule, I don't think it could be possible to
do no tax on social Security. But the House passed.
The House version had a four thousand dollars credit for seniors.
The Senate version looks like we've come back at around
six thousand, which I'm fine, fine with. One thing that
(13:57):
does bother me a little bit in the Senate side,
on the wind and solar subsidies, they're supposed to end
those Green New Deal subsidies for those two sort of,
at least in my district, not very welcome forms of
renewable energy. But right we had a sixty day enactment
of that in the House version and the Senate of
(14:19):
a two year phase out. I'll have a significant problem
with that, but by and large I'm pleased with it.
Or they drop the endowment attacks on these universities that
have the multi billion dollar endownments from twenty one percent
down to eight. I mean, obviously that remains to be negotiated,
but by and large, I think they're a couple a
(14:41):
little deeper in spots and they're loosing it up in
other spots, and that's kind of what we expected. It's
going to be a little give and take, fair enough.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
And Congress, I got to ask you because I am
outright against the notion that any president, this one or
any other president has the right to start declaring war
on other countries absent and approval from the Congress, then
if it is an authorization use of military force was
the constitutional purist in me says, isn't a concept.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
But where are you?
Speaker 1 (15:08):
I mean, it looks like Donald Trump's getting ready to
drop Chris Christy on that that that that facility over
there in order to blow it up and stop the
centrifuges from their work. Your position on where we are
generally relative to the Israel Iranian conflict.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Well, the first question. First, I agree with you that
you know, we've we've wandered far afield from pauling the
Constitution as having Congress approved UH any war activity now
and we've got the other authorizations you've talked about in
multiple areas. On the other hand, Israel's a tremendous ally.
(15:46):
I ran as an enemy of basically everybody in that region.
But I really am against, you know, putting our troops
into that battle. We've Israel never asked us to do that.
We've never done that for Israel. We exchange UH terry technology.
You know, they were a vital piece of the development
of the F thirty five, the Israelis were, so they're
(16:07):
a vital ally. We have to support them. But I
don't want our servicemen and women in harms way and Iran.
That's not our conflict unless the Congress votes to say
it is fair enough.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
I'm glad you and I see idiye on that one.
Congressman Taylor, real pleasure having on the program as it
always is. Or are you doing a great job for
your constituents? And I'll look forward to having further conversations
down the road with you, and you're always welcome here
on the fifty five KRC Morning Show. Thank you, Brian,
have a great day. Thanks brother, you do as well.
A twenty five right now coming up. I heard me
the aviation expert Jay Rat. I've got some great topics
(16:39):
talk about with Jay. I sure hope you can stick
around fifty five KRC
When you turn on your work computer, turn us off
love listening all day fifty five KRC to work with
the Tay stories while.

What will we do?
Speaker 1 (00:40):
This is a question of where we start. Well, let

(11:24):
Sharon bryn Thomas with representative of David Taylor. Congressman Taylor's
here represent of the second District of Ohio, and we
have this reconciliation process that's going on, and I'll be
honest with you, sir, I don't think it cuts nearly
enough out of spending to the extent that we are
engaging in even greater spending, to me is a non starter.
(11:45):
I know I'm alone in that, at least the Congressman
Massey and I are alone in our corners with that philosophy.
But it's over on the Senate side now, and they
made some proposals, one of which was kicking that forty
thousand dollars salt increase down to back to ten and
leaving it where it is, which I embrace completely. Where
are you in terms of what the Senate has done?
(12:06):
And are you satisfied? And would you embrace what the
Senates changed? Where are you in the process?
Speaker 2 (12:11):
Congressman Yeah, Bryan, By and large, I'm in agreement with
what the Senate's doing. I agree that there's room for
a lot more cuts. I do land on the on
the side of thinking this is a good step forward.
This won't be the last crack at reconciliation we get,
and I think this one will in the end. Nomb
(12:32):
says one point four trillion dollars will be produced from
the depths that over ten years, which is you know,
in star contrast to the CBO scoring. But we both
know what the CBO scoring is usually looks like. But
I'm fine with the salt cap being dropped from forty
to ten. It's going to be a contentious issue in
(12:53):
the House with we have the narrow majority, and we
have represented us from California and New York, and there's
places that are out and about that, but they've we
hit Senator Marino and I had sponsored a bill about
car interesting deductible on your income taxes, and that's part
(13:13):
of the end up being part of the big beautiful bill. Now,
one change that the Senate made there was to instead
of making it applicable to all vehicles, is only applicable
to new vehicles. I'd rather see that stay applicable to both.
They increase the senior tax deduction. We were talking about
no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax
(13:35):
on social security. Although sound good, but because of the
Bird rule, I don't think it could be possible to
do no tax on social Security. But the House passed.
The House version had a four thousand dollars credit for seniors.
The Senate version looks like we've come back at around
six thousand, which I'm fine, fine with. One thing that
(13:57):
does bother me a little bit in the Senate side,
on the wind and solar subsidies, they're supposed to end
those Green New Deal subsidies for those two sort of,
at least in my district, not very welcome forms of
renewable energy. But right we had a sixty day enactment
of that in the House version and the Senate of
(14:19):
a two year phase out. I'll have a significant problem
with that, but by and large I'm pleased with it.
Or they drop the endowment attacks on these universities that
have the multi billion dollar endownments from twenty one percent
down to eight. I mean, obviously that remains to be negotiated,
but by and large, I think they're a couple a
(14:41):
little deeper in spots and they're loosing it up in
other spots, and that's kind of what we expected. It's
going to be a little give and take, fair enough.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
And Congress, I got to ask you because I am
outright against the notion that any president, this one or
any other president has the right to start declaring war
on other countries absent and approval from the Congress, then
if it is an authorization use of military force was
the constitutional purist in me says, isn't a concept.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
But where are you?
Speaker 1 (15:08):
I mean, it looks like Donald Trump's getting ready to
drop Chris Christy on that that that that facility over
there in order to blow it up and stop the
centrifuges from their work. Your position on where we are
generally relative to the Israel Iranian conflict.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Well, the first question. First, I agree with you that
you know, we've we've wandered far afield from pauling the
Constitution as having Congress approved UH any war activity now
and we've got the other authorizations you've talked about in
multiple areas. On the other hand, Israel's a tremendous ally.
(15:46):
I ran as an enemy of basically everybody in that region.
But I really am against, you know, putting our troops
into that battle. We've Israel never asked us to do that.
We've never done that for Israel. We exchange UH terry technology.
You know, they were a vital piece of the development
of the F thirty five, the Israelis were, so they're
(16:07):
a vital ally. We have to support them. But I
don't want our servicemen and women in harms way and Iran.
That's not our conflict unless the Congress votes to say
it is fair enough.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
I'm glad you and I see idiye on that one.
Congressman Taylor, real pleasure having on the program as it
always is. Or are you doing a great job for
your constituents? And I'll look forward to having further conversations
down the road with you, and you're always welcome here
on the fifty five KRC Morning Show. Thank you, Brian,
