far away from me as you canget it sort of a reverse. Usually
the tickets, the closer you get, the more they are. Is completely
different. And by the way,tax deductible. It is a charitable organization.
(03:52):
I like the way you throw thatin its text. That's conductible.
It is it is, well halfof it is tax deductible. All right,
guys, let's do it. Itis time for handle on the news.
On this Thursday morning, June thirteenth, Amy King, Nil Savedra and
me lead story Medigino Metti Goto.The G seven leaders, they should be
(04:20):
called the G seven losers are inItaly. Virtually all of them are in
deep political trouble. Why because theyare for the most part moderates. And
the right has swept across the Westernworld. Lepenn for example in France,
(04:43):
who was a fringe politician, politician, complete conspiracy theorist. She her party
just decimated mccrone's middle party. Imean it's tough all over all over the
country. It has swung far.That's where the world is going. And
why because the left or perceive thelesson the moderates. Look where the world
(05:08):
is. It's gone to hell ina handbasket. So the far right's going
to do much much better. Wedon't have a whole lot of moderates anymore.
No, in name maybe, butwe don't have moderate. No.
Not many times to get called afar right winger on this program and then
the next email will be how liberalI am? I know, I get
the same thing. You know,Bill's a wacko. And because people don't
(05:30):
know how to look at topic bytopic and make a decision, Well,
I'm One of the things I'm knownfor is my sexual conservatism in terms of
statements I was made. I wastalking yesterday at lunch with our division president
and he said, I've got acouple of phone calls that I dealt with.
I go, what Bill you talkedabout Hunter Biden getting sodomized five times
(05:56):
a day by Bubba his cellmate.And I sow that effect, and I
said, I offended someone. What'swhat's the world coming to? Okay?
And changes the whole meaning of doingcrack okay? Whoa No. See,
That's why I enjoy Neil so muchon this shows. Calling Let's see,
(06:21):
the show went either uphill or downhillwhen when Neil came aboard January first,
I'm going to go with down Hi, Brad, I'm going to go with
that. I'm going to go withthat. The US isn't giving up on
Ukraine. The US and Ukraine expectedto sign a bilateral security pact on the
sidelines of the G seven, whichis underway. Of course in Italy.
(06:44):
It's a long term security relationship withKiev, but it is an executive agreement,
so it could be undone by futureadministrations, but for now it's expected
to commit the US for ten yearsto keep training Ukraine's armed forces. Also
calls from cooperation in the production ofweapons and military gear and the continued provision
of military assistance and more intelligence sharing. Yep, because Congress can't act.
(07:10):
Congress is gridlocks, so you're gonnaget nothing out of Congress. This is
going to be the most inept Congress, one hundred and tenth Congress that we
have this year, and it isgoing to be noted as probably the least
effective in the history of the UnitedStates. I think that's sort of a
given. Historians are already saying that. And so everything's done by executive action,
which means everything can be undone byex executive directive. And at this
(07:34):
election cycle, every election cycle,a general election cycle, both candidates say
this is going to determine which wayAmerica is going, and if you vote
for the other side, America isgoing to go at a hell in a
handbasket. And if you vote forme, then America is going to become
great. This election cycle is trulygoing to be which way America goes.
(07:58):
Who do you think, I believethat you're an amateur historian or a lated
historian. You who do you thinkin the history of the United States has
done the best for America as apresident. Well, Abraham Lincoln is given
the biggest credit, but he hadthe most difficult presidency and the largest war
(08:18):
ever in and he saved the Union. Literally. George Washington is known.
But then you have you know,the secondary of Thomas Jefferson, the Louisiana
purchase. You have Fdr bringing insocial security, of Teddy Roosevelt bringing America
into greatness and sense it becomes aworld power under Teddy Roosevelt. So you
(08:41):
can go all over the police,but you know the number one. Basically
everybody gives Abraham Lincoln because of hissteadfastness. He was saving the Union no
matter what, and if he hadn'tbeen there, there would be two countries
here. What about during your lifetime? Hello, Yeah, no, I'm
thinking I think I just wanted youknow, it depends on which way,
(09:01):
because you know, everybody has theirfaults. Lyndon Johnson doesn't get enough credit
for his civil rights I mean,the guy was a champion of civil rights
more so than any other president.Who else. Yeah he had a change
of heart too, Yeah he did. He was a racist out of he
threw the N word around a lotwhen he was was a group of Latinos
(09:24):
or young Latino kids, or somethingthat he came across. There was something
that changed his heart. And I'mtrying to think that it's you know,
I don't know. And I readthe book, Robert Kano's book Lyndon Johnson.
I forgot that. One's two volumes. It's like a thousand pages,
and I don't remember exactly. Itwas just curious. No. No,
it's a good no, it's Imean, it's a good question. It's
a very good question. It's easyto tear. Yeah, Andrew Andrew Johnson,
(09:46):
the worst president in history, whobecame president after Abraham Lincoln was assassinated
a drunk, A virulent racist,
You're listening to Bill Handle on demandfrom kf I am six forty. I'm

with your life. But yeah,still going to hell. You know,
