55KRC Wednesday Show - Jack Atherton, Cory Bowman, DAV, Judge Napolitano, Bethany House

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:08):
Five o five.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
I think about Garri see the talk stations.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
It was a.

Speaker 4 (00:28):
Fire.

Speaker 5 (00:30):
Yeah, well, isn't that the truth if you're if you're
not fired, you may be laid off. So read it
in the morning News. Brian Thomas right here. Glad to
be looking forward to the got great guests this morning.
Thanks as always the Judge, Director, executive producer. It's Wednesday,
of course, which means, of course Judge Annapolitano at eight thirty.

(00:50):
Preceded by Dan Claire, Community Chief Communications Officer for Disabled
American Veterans. They're got a Patriot boot Camp. Joe, it
was really asleep this morning when he put the rundown together,
it says boor Camp. I was laughing when the mic
came on because there was another thing on the rundown

(01:11):
that I asked him about. He goes, give me a break, man.
It was two o'clock in the morning when I was
putting that together. And this is yet one more you
get a past, Joe. It's a okay, I know what
you're talking about. My brain can comprehend boot as opposed
to bore boot camp. That's a D eight to five,
preceded by in Studio at seven point thirty, we have

(01:32):
somebody else that's running against Mayor, aftab Perval, the half
brother of JD Vance, Corey Bowman. Some local news reporting
on Corey Bowman, local pastor and again half brother JD.
Van's running from mayor. So I said, when I landed
at CBG, I knew the city where my family and
I live in love cannot fall behind in the critical

(01:55):
years ahead. Looking very forward to having Corey in studio
and finding out what he's all about, what his ideas
are for the city of Cincinnati, and how he contrasts
himself from half tem Purval. Should be a pretty easy
chore to do that anyhow, pre sated by the big
picture with Jack Adad and jack Adad and when DEEI

(02:16):
refuses to hire referencing what he describes as a forgotten
Supreme Court case, which is also the subject matter of
the Judge Naninapolitana's discussion at eight thirty tariffs in the Constitution.
I haven't told him. He refers to a case, that
long standing case that I was not familiar with. So
we get to learn a little bit about the law

(02:37):
with Judge Annapolitana together at eight thirty, which I fully
appreciate and should we take over Gaza. Donald Trump, in
addition to Greenland and Canada and the Panama Canal now
going after Gaza. He's an aggressive guy, There's no question
about it. And that was nice hearing from retired Congress

(03:01):
from Brad Weinster former, I think he said, and he
had sent me this press announcement from the White House,
just given a really concise rundown of what had happened
up until I guess the day before yesterday, because so
much has happened. And we'll talk about US eight here
at a moment, which is rather an interesting organization, and

(03:25):
you'll feel really really swell about how they're using your
tax dollars or how USA it is traditionally use your
tax dollars, you know, flying under the banner of helping
the world's poor and solving the world's problem and advancing
America's interest. I don't have production of a transgender opera,
it serves that interest or something along those lines. To

(03:46):
get the details in a minute, anyway. Columbia. Columbia agreed
to accept American repatriation flights from illegal immigrants check Venezuela.
President's envoy traveling Venezuela secured the release of six American hostages,
and Venezuela also agreed to accept the return of illegal

(04:08):
immigrants from the Trey d Aragua gang members check Afghanistan.
Trump facilitated the release of Ryan Corbett and William McKenny
from the Taliban his first day in office, Jack Panama.
During Secretary of State Mark Rubiz visit to Panama, the
president there announced that the nation would not renew its

(04:29):
participation in China's Belt and Road program. China made some
serious inroads and taken over and running the Panama Canal,
much of the chagrin of pretty much everyone here. I
seem to recall Jimmy Carter handing over Panama. I was
a little even as a young person when he did that.
I did not understand why, since we built the damn

(04:51):
thing anyway. In roads in Panama Canada, of course, the
other day Justin Trudeau announced it that Canada would deploy
more troops off the flow of fentanyl and appoint a
Fentanyl TZAR joined US with the United States in a
strike force and a two hundred million dollars directive combating

(05:11):
organized trime, a crime infentanyl. Czech Mexico. Yes, you all
remember that Mexico's president, Claudius Shinbaum announced that Mexico be
spending sending ten thousand soldiers to the border to combat
the border crossings and deal with fentanyl traffic trafficking check.
And of course, Trump helped secure the release of hostages

(05:33):
being held by the terror GROUSEMA Group AMAS in Gaza.
So just a short and very concise list of the
accomplishments of Donald Trump just a mere two weeks. It
is pretty amazing. And Democrats are just losing their minds.
I would say I kind of feel sorry for him,

(05:55):
but I don't, and I'm just I'm waiting patiently and
sort of with wild curiosity to see which political direction
they decide to go, because what they've offered the American people.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
Ain't working anyway.

Speaker 5 (06:16):
Over to the USA, Elon Musk Kevin a go at
USA and he's rooting through the records and talked talking
about waste and abuse, which you can easily agree that
it is waste and abuse, and I think you could
probably get bipartisanship agreement that there's a massive amount of
waste and abuse in this forty billion dollar agency. It's
not a sizeable chunk of our annual multi trillion dollar expenditures.

(06:41):
But you know every little bit counts. So Trump ordered
the USAID folks not to show up to work. Despite
its title. You know, we know adage is looking into
every area of government with that is just filled with fraud, waste,

(07:04):
and abuse. Anyway, the White House said on Monday, for decades,
US agent, the United States Agency for International Development USA,
has been unaccountable to taxpayers that funnels massive sums of
money to the ridiculous and in many cases malicious pet
project of and tranched bureaucrats with next to no oversight.

(07:25):
So the White House list released a list millions of
dollars in programs of Trump administration considers well DEI controversial
and undermining of the United States interests. That this is
an organization that is supposed to spread the love of
the United States. How come it's funding terrorist organizations, which

(07:47):
in part it does one point five million dollar programs
slated to quote advanced diversity, equity and inclusion in Serbia's
workplaces and business can communities, a seventy thousand dollars program
for a DEI musical in Ireland. How you feel about

(08:11):
that and think about I mean just that one seventy
thousand dollar expenditure. Some group in Ireland reached out to
USA US, the American government, the American taxpayer, and said,
you know what, we want to do a musical about diversity,
equity inclusion. Would you mind paying for it? And somebody

(08:35):
Usa'd agree to that. Oh, okay, sounds like a good idea.
Multiple initiatives supporting the LGBTQI programs forty seven thousand dollars
for a Here We Go Again, a transgender opera in Colombia.

(09:01):
In Peru, thirty two thousand dollars allocated for a transgender
comic book. Over to Guatemala, where we allocated two million
dollars of our taxpayer hard earned money for sex changes
in LGBT activism. That's Guatemala. Also identified by the White

(09:27):
House as some of the ridiculous expenditures, A six million
dollar agreement that was intended to fund tourism in Egypt.
When you think you'd like to fund tourism in the
United States, I mean, we're trying to represent our own
best interests. What better thing to do than encourage people
to come to the United States and see how things

(09:47):
are here. Oh, that's right, we have the internet now,
and maybe that's why tan do fifteen million people in
poorer countries entered the United States of America illegally over
the past I don't know, four or five years anyway,
that Egyptian aid also to provide further access to this

(10:09):
isn't quotes access to transportation for rural communities and economic
livelihood programming for families.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
I'm sure there are.

Speaker 5 (10:17):
Some people in struggling communities here in the United States going, hey,
what about my access to transportation? Sorry, sucks to be you.
Finite amount of dollars we need to send them to
Egypt for that. Egypt, of course, we funded Echo Health
Alliance to create a bat virus that infected humans on

(10:41):
a massive scale, killing literally millions, apparently from US AIDS funding.
Just scratching the surface here, folks. Climate activism big on
the list of US AID recipients, and these non governmental

(11:02):
organization groups linked to Palestinian terrorism included, among them tens
of millions of dollars to agency bureaus that cover issues
like environmental justice and ODBTQI plus inclusive development. Now, in

(11:27):
response to all this, you know you witness this, and
you see this, and of course the Trump administration put
a whole bunch of staffers.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
On administrative leave. Just the other day.

Speaker 5 (11:37):
Marco Rubio, who is head of the State and in
charge of now USAID, said this freeze and these furloughs,
these administrative leaf folks came in response to what he
referred to as insubordination, saying, USA, it is a history
of deciding that they're somehow a global charity separate from

(11:58):
the national interest. That sort of insubordination makes it impossible
to conduct a sort of mature and serious review that
I think foreign aid writ large should have right now
in the case of million dollar expenditures, or even tens
of thousand dollars expenditures like the DEEI musical in Ireland
was only seventy thousand dollars. Mind the pennies, the dollars

(12:22):
mind themselves, old adage that stands true to this day.
Start ferreting out every single illegitimate, stupid.

Speaker 1 (12:30):
If I might underscore that word.

Speaker 5 (12:33):
Expenditure, the American taxpayer dollar, and you start showing some
positive result, and perhaps you send out a message to
the world that we're not the idiots that we seem
to be. By paying for this stuff. I'm sure somewhere
out in the world, and you know what, artificial intelligence
will probably provide a guide Joe see if AI will

(12:56):
answer the question, how does one easily get a government grant?
Make up a program LGBTQI plus executive producer emotional support
group program so you can get funding for that. I
know you're not in that category. I'm just throwing it

(13:17):
out there as an illustration of something that sounds really, really,
really blanking stupid. One million dollars in taxpayer funds to
help disable people in tagic Stan become climate leaders Washington
Freebeacon reporting crop props to them. The grant notice solicited

(13:42):
proposals for a quote Disability inclusive climate action close quote
project in TAGI Stan. The cash to ensure that disabled
TAGI stannies were included quote in the development of climate
change response and mitigate policies as if the disabled population

(14:04):
was impacted in a fundamentally different way than anybody else
who might be impacted by so called climate change.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
I mean, there's more. The list is seemingly endless on this.

Speaker 5 (14:17):
You worked for this, I just I always want to
keep pointing it out. My listeners are probably sick to
death to hear me make the same point over and
over again. They're taking money from your labor to pay
for this crap. We should all be revolting, we should
all be screaming, we should all be demanding accountability. And

(14:38):
look what's happening. Donald Trump's in office for two weeks.
We got Doge. Now Doge is identifying this stuff. And
I got to find out at age fifty nine that yes,
part of my labor.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
Is going to this stuff.

Speaker 5 (14:56):
Five twenty fifty five Krcity Talks Station'd love to hear
from You've got a in five one three, seven, four,
nine fifty eight hundred eight two three talkun five fifty
on AT and T phones.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
Don't go away.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
To stop.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
Five four.

Speaker 5 (15:16):
Of course I regularly refer to as to Joe Strecker as,
among other things, Internet Research GURO. He did the chat
GPT sert securing. Here's what it turned out, securing government
grants to develop an LGB to support group in the
Republic of Congo. He didn't go with the executive producers,
but that's okay. Can be challenging due to limited funding opportunities. However,

(15:38):
international organizations and foreign governments offer grants that support LGBTQIWXYZ
initiatives globally, including in African nations. Here are some avenues
to consider. One international organizations coming in at number one
on the list of international organizations the one I was
just referring to USAID. The United States Agency for International

(16:02):
Development provides grants to local LGBTQI led organization and offers
support for emergency situations. Austria Lesbian Foundation for Justice. I
guess there is one of those supports LGBTQI groups worldwide,
offering flexible general support grants ranging from five thousand to
thirty thousand dollars annually. United Nations Initiatives. The United Nations

(16:27):
Democracy Funds supports projects that strengthen the voice in civil society,
promote human rights, encourage the participation of all groups in
democratic processes, calling for proposals which can be an opportunity
for funding. The US Embassy apparently offers grants public Diplomacy
Small Grants program. The US Embassy and the Democratic Republic

(16:55):
of Congo invites proposals for programs the strengthen ties between
the United Slime States and Congo. Specific to the Democratic
Republic of Congo, similar programs exist for the Republic of
Congo's advisable to check with the US Embassy for potential opportunities.

(17:16):
There's others steps to take. It recommends research eligibility to
ensure organizations meet the eligibility criteria for each grant. Well,
if you can get you a gay musical and Ireland funded,
I think that's probably a pretty low bar. Prepare a
strong proposal, outline your project's objectives, target audience, expected outcomes,

(17:40):
and how it aligns with the grant's goals. I think
merely incorporated the words are the letters LGBTQI plus in
the proposal will satisfy that hurdle. There Joe build partnerships,
Collaborate with established non governmental organizations and community groups. It's
strengthening proposals, increase credibility. So you got an NGO that

(18:03):
already went through this qualification criteria, they must be your
friends and they can help you guide or navigate the
seemingly instrumentable hurdles not.

Speaker 1 (18:16):
To get the grant.

Speaker 5 (18:17):
Also, stay informed and regularly monitor the website of potential
funders for the new grand announcements, send deadlines.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
It goes on chat GPT.

Speaker 5 (18:28):
He said it churned out this response while I was
still talking to him about entering the entering the request
in chat GPT to help us navigate the challenges of
getting grants. This madness must stop. Five seven fifty five.
Care see the talk station, don't go away. Local stories

(18:49):
coming up or phone calls if you care to call,
I'd love to talk to you.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
This is what's happening.

Speaker 6 (18:54):
We're trying to shrink government.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
Stay current. We will secure our.

Speaker 7 (18:57):
Border and our minting.

Speaker 2 (18:58):
We've been guarding it. Check in every hour. El Salvador
offering to take in prisoner.

Speaker 8 (19:02):
Dangerous American criminals.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
Fifty five krs the talk station.

Speaker 6 (19:07):
It's the marketer's report.

Speaker 5 (19:13):
I'm sorry, we'll get to it in a second. I
just Joe, Just and I are having a field day
with his research grants anyway, Chat GPT coming through with
high comedy this morning. Ah weather overcast day to day
rain around four pm, spotty rain anyway, thirty six for
the high end of thirty five overnight with showers as
far as possible, and the northern counties might see some

(19:34):
freezing rain. Rain and tomorrow morning as possible. It'll mean
partly cloudy and mild otherwise with the highest sixty one
overnight little of thirty partly Clotti and a sunny Friday
gay with a higher forty two.

Speaker 1 (19:50):
Thirty three degrees right now for five years of the
talk station.

Speaker 5 (19:56):
Bobby, if you're out there, I said, see if you
can figure out if chat GPT can turn out how
to get a government grant for toast suckers. I said,
why don't you call it foot fetishest anyway, there's no

(20:17):
flag for us, all right, Well, maybe there will be.
Dave Chappelle. It says getting a government grant for a
niche project like foot Fetish support group, and he chose
the country of Romania randomly chosen by Joe might be
challenging chat GPT rights. But here's some steps to improve
your chances. Identify grant opportunities, check Romanian government programs and

(20:43):
fundmental health, social support or sexual wellness initiatives. Mental health
I think the operative words in.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
That seek it.

Speaker 5 (20:53):
Please look for EU grants related to mental health inclusion
or niche community support. Consider private foundations that support alternative
lifestyle communities. Then it suggests to frame the issue as
a social or psychological support initiative. Position in the group
is a mental health.

Speaker 1 (21:13):
Or Wellness project. See.

Speaker 5 (21:16):
Now that's sound advice, because if you make it sound plausible, reasonable,
or something that really sounds caring or concerning, then you
might stand a better chance of getting some money from
some stupid organization like USAID. Anyhow, I won't continue. I
do have local stories, but if you want to call,
feel free to do it. Governor Mike DeWine signed an

(21:38):
executive order telling state employees to show up to office
full time, taking a cue from President Trump to Wine
outline that back in twenty twenty, during COVID nineteen, has
offers allowed some state employees to work remotely, but in
twenty twenty one state of emergency ended. Employees that have
been remote started to return to work full time or

(21:59):
on a hybrid race basis. Court to the Wines executive order,
as a result of remote work in hybrid work, the
state of Ohio saved millions of dollars by reducing least
real estate and maximizing the use of state owned and
manage real property, ensuring the state offices are currently nearly
fully occupied. Four years later, fast forward to Wine said
it's in the best interest for employees to return to

(22:20):
the office to best serve public and maximize the use
of state owned assets and facilities to wine ordered all
state agencies boards commissions to require employees to return to
office no later than March seventeenth. What day is it today?
Is it going to take that long to arrange for
transportation to go back to work? Sorry, I'm in a

(22:44):
bit of a mood today. One person dead in early
morning shooting in Hamilton. Officers were reported as shots fired
in the eleven hund of block at Clovernook Drive yesterday morning.
At five point forty five am. They got reports to
a thirty three year old man was shot by somebody
who left and was possibly fleeing on a purple Honda Civic.

(23:08):
Hamilton police blocked Southern Hills Lane and Hamilton Clees Pike
Road for several hours while they were doing the investigation.
Police announced mid morning that there was an altercation involving
two suspects that resulted in one of them being shot.
That person now dead. Hamilton Police detectives responded to the home,
continuing investigation and at least as of this reporting, not
actively looking for any other suspects at this time. But

(23:31):
if you have an information, detective rule would love to
hear from you at five, one, three, eight, six, eight,
fifty eight to eleven five point thirty five right now
at fifty five care City Talk Station. Seems like we've
been spending time in the STACKUS tupe, but already, even
though it relates to genuine government expenditures, we get a

(23:51):
real STACKUS tou but coming up next absent your phone calls,
but you can feel free to call it. I'd love
to hear from you five to thirty five right now,
fifty five care City Talk Station back. Hopefully cy high
comedy continues even when the microphone is off. Research funding grants,
just go ahead and plug them in the chat ept
and maybe you two can get a slice of the

(24:13):
USAID money. I can't even say out loud some of
the grants. Jes Drecker is stuck in there. But it's
interesting because the last one you put in there regarding
a very controversial grant for the City of San Francisco.
In conclusion, after providing all the information and points that

(24:34):
it suggests you follow in order to get funding for
your research grant, it concludes by saying, would you like
help drafting a grant proposal or identifying specific funding sources?
Artificial intelligence hard at work. I can't see how this
is going to make the world a better place anyway.

(24:55):
Stacking stupid. We have a certified public accountant in Denver
went on a midday shooting rampage, firing at two strangers
with a pistol.

Speaker 1 (25:04):
Why are you doing that?

Speaker 5 (25:05):
I don't know if we're really gonna find out. Shot
one guy in the neck and job after getting into
an argument with one of the victims over them sitting
on the same park bench as him.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
There's your reason.

Speaker 5 (25:15):
Twenty eight year old CPA told detectives he believed the
individuals and in his words, were somehow involved in a
psy ops. That's in quotes, paranoid much. Ryan Eggleston, Licensed CPA,
described himself online as a certified joy enthusiast and small

(25:36):
business other. Joe, see if you can get a grant
for him? WHOA, that's a lot of feces. H deep,
We just revealed the nature of the grant application you
were looking for in San Francisco. Joe, you said you
weren't gonna bring it up. His figures slept.

Speaker 9 (26:03):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 5 (26:04):
People some days more serious than others, and I'm enjoying
the less serious moments we're having here of the Morning
Show today. Also says he has a deep passion to
preach and teach the word of God. I guess with
his handgun shooting at random people. Arrested Sunday for attempted
first degree murder after allegedly targeting two people in Denver's
Washington Park. Victim shot founded a nine hundred block of

(26:25):
South Downing after Eggleston randomly opened fire on him. Fortunately,
he survived, as did the under other individual that this
guy allegedly shot at that happened to be the guy
that was sitting next to him. Accord to the Denver
Police Department, Eggleston was involved in a verbal altercation of

(26:48):
the first victim when the victim asked if he could
sit on the same bench with the defendant. During the altercation,
the defendant was observed by several witnesses spitting on the
victim is that part of God's mission, pushing the victim
in the chest and eventually punching the victim once in
the lower back. Victim then began to walk away while
seated on his bicycle, at which time the defendant was

(27:09):
observed by witnesses producing a firearm and firing one round
at the victim, placing the victim in fear for his life.

Speaker 6 (27:16):
Just away.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
There's that, please say.

Speaker 5 (27:20):
A bullet defect later found in the rear tire the
victim's vite. Witnesses reported seeing Eggleston walking up to the
second victim, appro approximately thirty seconds to one minute later.
Witnesses stated that they observed the defendant produced the firearm
again fire a single shot at the second victim from behind,
with around struck in the neck and jaw area, causing

(27:41):
serious bodily injury. At no point to the second victim
and the defendant appeared to have any sort of disagreement
or altercation prior to the shooting. At that point, Eggleston
walked over to his red Hyundai Sinan and fled the scene,
apprehended by police after a high risk stop and pit maneuver.
Claimed in interviews the police said that he thought people

(28:03):
he attacked were part of a psyops mission aimed at him.
Psychological operations, uh, something Eggleston reportedly talked about at length.
At one point on a Christian podcast, I think the
guy miss.

Speaker 4 (28:19):
Keep your stupid mouth shut.

Speaker 5 (28:22):
Entire point of the Christian mission. According to the host,
of the Kingdom Crossroads podcast a guy named Robert Thiboudo.

Speaker 1 (28:35):
Close enough.

Speaker 5 (28:36):
No, Joe's record does not produced this particular podcast, although
if you want to do a podcast, Joe will produce.

Speaker 1 (28:40):
It for you.

Speaker 5 (28:41):
Maybe the mark of the Beast is here and it's
really a I oh. Going back to the artificial intelligence,
he's got a problem with that. Accord to Eggleston what
he said of the podcast, the Denver Accountant believes artificial
intelligence is going to usher in the end of time,

(29:03):
and I guess cause you to randomly open fire on
completely innocent, undeserving individuals. Feel free to call if you
want to comment on something or joining the fun this morning.

Little Miami Brewing in Milford, cool spot. And always regardless
of where we are our fellowship is awesome at listener lunch.
So uh, given the paucity of phone call interest, I

(31:04):
take that personally. Biden signed with a talent agency. It's
in the stack of stupid creative artist agency apparently previously
represented him between twenty seventeen to twenty twenty. I guess
he did previously an American Promise speaking tour. Don't wait

(31:24):
for that happening again, given his inability to speak in public.
And I have no idea why a talent agency would
want to hire Biden given his current mental cognitive function.
But whatever, it's their issue, not me, but.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
Any of that.

Speaker 5 (31:40):
Donald Trump, and responding to this, said, you gotta be kidding.
He signed with a talent agency. I think he's got
much bigger problems than that, But I wish him well.
Mighty nice of Donald Trump. Go to Texas Bexer, Katy, Texas,
where a mom there's now facing charges after authority say
she left after her children at home for more than

(32:02):
ten hours while she was out drinking. Do what the
hell cord of the MEXICUNTI Sheriff's office. A twelve year
old girl called nine to one one to say that
her mom abandoned her at home with her younger sister
for over ten hours. Deputies got there found two children,
ages nine and twelve alone. They told deputies the mom
had told them she was going to pick up a

(32:23):
package from a friend nearby, but never returned. Mom identified
as thirty six year old Misty Down Lewis investigator's request
of the cell phone ping for Lewis, which led them
to an undisclosed location in San Antonio, where offered deputies
found her there. She appeared to be intoxicated and did
smell of alcohol. They said she elsa had a small

(32:45):
amount of cocaine in her possession. She admitted she left
her children home alone. Arrested charge with two counts of
abandoning or endangering a child, facing an additional charge of
possession of controlled substances of less than four grams. Someone
described as a scorned lover, upset about her now ex
boyfriends multiple relationships with her and another woman, got a

(33:09):
little bit violent. She ran over him with the range Rover.
This of course, in Florida, and after she was accused
of throwing eggs at his car and dousing it with
ketchup and mustard. Can I get it just walk away
Joe a nineteen year old Yoshabelle Edouard facing a charge
of aggravator battery causing great bodily harm according to the

(33:31):
probable cause arrest staff and David deputies met with the victim,
twenty year old Curvin Saintal. He told deputies he was
having multiple relationships with Eduard and another woman. Early Inday,
he accused Edward of egging his car and smothering it
with the condiments. Later, Saint Hill and his other lover

(33:55):
and a couple of friends were walking around his apartment
complex and put to gore to Florida when they saw
Edward in her white Range Rover. She turned the corner
made a beeline for this guy. He tried to evade
the vehicle, but she hit him. He skipped up the
front of the rover, landed on the windshield, shattering the windshield,
and he suffered multiple lacerations to his right side, including

(34:16):
on his arms, shoulder, and head. Santo's new girlfriend said
Edward wasn't speeding, but was driving fast enough to try
to hurt Santil. Victim's friend gave similar accounts in an
interview with detectives. Edward said she and Santil were in
an on again, off again sexual relationship. She became upset

(34:39):
when she heard Santil and the other woman talking about her.
She said that she and the other woman were talking
on the phone when they were looking at the damage
from the food items. I guess that will be the
ketchup and mustard. I sounds to me like they're all guilty.

Speaker 1 (35:03):
And finally we remained in Florida.

Speaker 8 (35:09):
Tradition, Thank you Joe.

Speaker 5 (35:10):
Woman arrested for throwing a what is described as first
date brick in quotes through the window of her ex
husband's home. Lee County Sheriff's office said they caught her
on camera throwing the brick. They posted a video of
the suspect, thirty four year old Sabrina Coin, in a
Facebook post from the police, A thirty four year old

(35:31):
woman's behind bars for throwing a first date brick throw
a Benita Spring's residence window. Post said deputies located Sabrina
Coin outside of the residence after the homeowner said they
woke up to a loud crash and banging on the
front door. In the video, the officer can be heard
asking did you launch anything in there? Coin insisted no,
before the camera cut. It cut the footage showing or

(35:54):
throwing what appeared to be a brick. I have what
the hell is a first date brick?

Speaker 1 (35:59):
Anyway, I had no idea what's going on? Thank you, Tally.

Speaker 5 (36:04):
I'm with you, CJ out of time, brother, But if
you don't mind holding I'll be more than happy to
take your call right out of the gate and we
get back from the top of the hour.

Speaker 2 (36:11):
News covering Trump's first one hundred days. Every day America's
deadline is over fifty five KRC being talk station. If
you're fifty five kr se me talk station.

Speaker 5 (36:24):
Brian Times wishing everyone very happy Wednesday and inviting everyone
to lunch. It is listener lunch day. We're going to
be a little Miami Brewing Company in Milford. Great spot.
Been there before. If you've been there, you know it's
a great spot. But every spot we're at for listening
lunch is great because the fellowship is beyond comper compare great.
People love my listening audience. I love spending time with

(36:46):
folks and enjoying this opportunity to get out of the house,
which is really all it's about. As I've pointed out
from the very get go listener lunch, and we've been
doing it for eighteen years or a full seventeen years anyways,
my nineteenth year in radio. But using it as an
excuse to do something different. That's all it's about, you know,
get out of the house, just like the way we
used to get away from the the cafeteria at Anthem

(37:09):
and take our little basket and go back and work
in our cube over lunch in the legal department. Just
on occasion we'd all get up and just head on
over to Skyline or someplace, and it was just really
refreshing to leave the office. So consider leaving the home
or leaving your office for an hour or so. Usually
start about eleven thirty, but lots of flexibility. I think cribbage.
Mike and I always end the listener lunch with our

(37:31):
cribbage game. I usually don't walk out till somewhere around
one thirty. So you're invited. I also invited a call.
I love hearing from the listeners five on three seven
four nine fifty eight hundred eight two three talk. I'll
be honest with you, I'm not done with USA and
stupid programs. If it wasn't real, it's high comedy. You'd
think this stuff was completely made up, much like the

(37:52):
request we put it a chat GPT this morning to
create funding opportunities for programs that don't exist. We'll go
into details of the one Joe Struck I put in
last time, but let's go to the phones. I promised
CJ he'd be first. CJ, thanks for holding over the
brake there. Welcome to the program.

Speaker 10 (38:12):
Good morning, my friend. A couple of quick things on USA.
One thing on USAD real quick. It is amazing the
Democrat freak out.

Speaker 11 (38:20):
They must have been getting the loads of money being
diverted from some of these different programs right back into
the DNC and probably explains how they took off in
so much fundraising over the last twenty years.

Speaker 5 (38:32):
It does, what it does, raise some suspicious questions, because
you know someone is behind the grants, right, Someone's behind
this And you know, I'm not saying this is happening,
but you know, people like Alexandri Casio Cortez, who are
flat broke and complaining about how they don't have any
money because they were a bartender, get elected to Congress

(38:52):
and then walk out multiple years later as multimillionaires. Is
it just even possible that maybe some of these grants
include percentage kickback to whatever member of Congress or elected
official help get the grant. I'm just throwing it out
there because it's certainly possible. I'm sure they don't do
any really in depth accounting work for how the seventy

(39:16):
thousand dollars grant for the LGBTQ musical in some remote
corner of the world, how that money was spent. So
I'm just saying, but go ahead, make a good point.

Speaker 4 (39:26):
Yeah. Absolutely.

Speaker 10 (39:27):
But the reason why I call it today is is
that government.

Speaker 4 (39:30):
Has one job, and that is to protect us. And
somewhere Gene.

Speaker 10 (39:34):
Roddenberry and Ronald Reggahin had a toast of a beer
because we successfully tested a missile with a five mile
range that destroyed a drone in the Persian Gulf and
has the ability.

Speaker 4 (39:48):
To knock out missiles.

Speaker 10 (39:50):
That is, every Democrat who is alive in the nineteen
eighties and early nineteen nineties today needs to write an
apology letter to Ronald Reagan for the vision that he had.
It may not be in space yet, but when Donald
Trump is talking about a US iron dome, that is
exactly what he's talking about. Right, there is that laser

(40:11):
that was shot yesterday, And if you have the capability
to have a five mile range, you're pretty close to
knocking out not that far away from knocking out in
continental ballistic missiles number one and then number two. You
have totally changed the world from the standpoint of just
like the the English when they knocked out the Spanish Armada,

(40:33):
you have created a new weapon system in which you
are going to protect and dominate disease.

Speaker 4 (40:38):
The question is how far along is.

Speaker 10 (40:41):
China been doing the same thing, and have they already
stolen this technology?

Speaker 5 (40:47):
You know, I know you don't. You know, I don't
know the answer to that question. But given China and
its ability to steal research from US very easily, apparently,
I imagine they've got their own version. But yeah, I mean,
that's a and it's the speed of light. It's the
one mechanism that at least I am aware of, if
it works and it is effective, that might be able

(41:08):
to knock out one of those hypersonic weapons. Those things
are frightening our iron dome. The typical iron dome system
with its regular rocket fired missiles, in no way, shape
or form, could catch up with a hypersonic missile, so
we're left completely unprotected unless you can get something like
that laser system which could easily which could track that
hypersonic missile as fast as it's going, and then given

(41:31):
the speed of light and modern computer technology, might be
able to track and successfully bring it down. Yeah, I
agree with you, CJ's that's the kind of thing we're
supposed to be spending money on, not DEI programs and
converting our military members into woke idea logues. That is
not an appropriate spending expenditure of money. Five point three

(41:52):
seven four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty
two to three talk pound five fifty on AT and
T phones. Anyway, since I'm having such a fun time
with this USA and learning more about it. In twenty
twenty three, maybe the last year we have actual figures
for it, it's widely reported they got forty billion of
our dollars, had no fewer than ten thousand employees, and

(42:17):
supported really absolutely batcrap insane programs, which is one of
the reasons we should all rejoice the Elon Musk and
Doge and anybody else that's involved in this This cutting
and pairing and eradication efforts should be applauded for the
work that they're doing. House Foreign Affairs Chairman Brian miss
cited some examples of the usdad's USA's progressive agenda work.

(42:38):
He said the agency and the Biden years supported electric
vehicles in Vietnam, a transgender clinic in India, A Serbian
LGBT group called Gruppa is Zagi. They got one point

(42:59):
five million dollars and in in quotes to advance diversity,
equity and inclusion in Serbia's workplaces and business communities. I
wonder if the Serbian government had Serbian government had any
say in that. Analysts by the Middle East Forums that
one hundred and sixty four million of USAID money has

(43:21):
supported radical organizations around the world, one hundred and twenty
two million of that aid going to groups aligned with
foreign terrorist organizations. Cour to that report, USAID's given millions
of dollars to organizations directly in Gaza controlled by Hamas.
Recipients of the money have called for the lands to
be cleansed from the impurity of the Jews, that is

(43:45):
in quotes. Now, of course, this is a congressionally created
organization and entity, and Donald Trump is not committed to
just say sorry, it's gone. It's going to require an
Act of Congress, but he did tell the folks to
show up to work. Congress does have the power of
the purse. It could easily defund this organization if Republicans

(44:07):
can get their act together. Other USAID projects one million
dollars in your money to help disable people in tagic
Stan become climate leaders. The Disability Inclusive Climate Action Project,
that's the name of it. Cash meant to ensure that
disabled tagic stands were included in the development of climate

(44:29):
change response mitigation policies. Yes, I'm aware that I mentioned
that one in the last hour. USA champion the funding
in twenty two to twenty thirty Climate Strategy, a one
hundred and fifty billion quote whole of agency approach for
the purpose of creating and again quote equitable and equitable

(44:51):
world with net zero greenhouse gas emissions. The tagic Stan
grant centered on ensuring the climate at action by governments
and other actors is informed by and responsive to the
unique ideas and contributions of persons with disabilities. All right,

(45:11):
right before leaving office, Biden administration pushed out a million
dollars actually more than a million dollars in your money
for diversity, equity inclusion.

Speaker 1 (45:21):
Programs around the world and other areas.

Speaker 5 (45:23):
USA would engage in with indigenous led institutions to implement
an indigenous language technology program in of all places, Guatemala,
where ninety five percent of the residents there speak Spanish,

(45:47):
Indigenous language programs in Guatemala. Over to Kenya, USA promised
to build a collaborative bridge between the United States higher
education institutions, including historically, excuse me, black colleges and universities
select Kenyan universities in the private sector Indonesia. The money

(46:07):
aimed to help, in their words, underrepresented students to gain
access to higher education opportunities here in the United States.
Back in twenty two, seventy eight thousand dollars and again
not a huge sum of money, but every little bit counts.
Seventy eight thousand dollars to the Community Development and Continuing

(46:28):
Education Institute, a Palestinian activist group based in the West
Bank whose leaders praised terrorists who murdered US military attache
as a hero fighter. They got the cash to promote,
in their words, youth participation and accountability in local governments. Governance.

(46:48):
You know those pesky youth, those radical peski youth, and
a guy named Amad al Zir who happens to be
the chair of that organization, that that community development continuing
education institute which got the money. He attended a Popular
Front for the Liberation of Palestine events celebrating the fifty

(47:09):
second anniversary of the terrorist groups founding deputy chair of
that group praised George Abdullah, a Lebanese terrorist person serving
a life sentence in France for murdering a military ad
Esha Charles r.

Speaker 1 (47:22):
Ray I was waiting for that Joe.

Speaker 5 (47:27):
Six days prior to the October seventh Hamas assault on
murder of Israeli's innocent they were. USA doled out more
than nine hundred thousand dollars to a terror charity in
Gaza involved with the son of Hamas leader Ismael Heinye.
According to watchdog reported taken by The Free Beacon, May
twenty three, USA announced plans to spend one point five

(47:51):
million dollars on a program aimed at empowering female climate
activists in spend the globe put your finger down in
the country. In this particular case, Kenya centered on empowering
women to adapt to climate change in northern Kenya.

Speaker 1 (48:15):
Not the preferred nomenclature please.

Speaker 5 (48:19):
According to the USA, women in the area live in
traditionally patriarchal communities and need training to join Kenya's fight
against climate change. July twenty four by the USA had
sent fifteen million dollars in the Taliban controlled Afghanistan, three
years after we hastily pulled out of the country, phrasing

(48:46):
nice timing on that the purpose of the aid oral contraceptives.

Speaker 1 (48:50):
And condoms as this tradition six eighteen.

Speaker 5 (48:55):
If you five k sit talk stations Mississippi, James, hang on, brotherwa,
I will get your call. I looked up and saw
the clock, and I got to mention Odo exit. No,
it does not get rid of the stench of politics.
And don't we wish that oto Exit had a product
to get rid of the stench of politics? But nothing
solves that problem. But in so far as other odors
are concerned, anything you got around the house, around the
maybe your car, like I always say, I use the

(49:17):
Otero Exit magic product in my car when I pick
up fast food, because they don't want a car smell
like fast food. But beyond that, you know, pet oders mold,
mildew's smoke. Maybe you got a weed smoker in your basement.
They actually have medical marijuana list. That is one of
the things that it gets rid of, but even non
medical marijuana. Just the illustration of the power of the

(49:38):
Otero Exit products. They come with a one hundred percent
satisfaction guaranteed will get rid of the odio you're trying
to get rid of. When you use this directed you
get your money back now. I always encourage people call
the toll free number. Locally owned and operated twenty five
years in business. They just got done having a big
party in celebration, and I'm really proud of those Odo
Exit folks because the products really do work and they've

(49:59):
been solving odor problems for folks for twenty five years.
Go online, order it on the website. You can figure
out which product you need in the website. Lots of
information there. The total free number to call is there
if you have any questions, and if you order it
right there before three pm today, it'll be on your

the stench of politics. No E It's o d O

Speaker 5 (50:38):
I got time for Mississippi James, Missippy James, thanks for
holding over the break.

Speaker 1 (50:41):
Welcome back to the show, my friend.

Speaker 12 (50:43):
Hey, good morning, doctor Brian. You you own a road
this morning, buddy.

Speaker 5 (50:48):
Well, this is you know, I feel like I am.
I'm reading a bunch of stories from the stack. Is
stupid when I read about these programs that we all
worked for collectively, and they thought it would be important
to spend that money on this outlandishly crazy backcrap, insane stuff.
I mean, it's just it's it's impossible to imagine and believe.

Speaker 1 (51:08):
And then you know, say.

Speaker 5 (51:10):
What you want about Democrats, and I know about the
pendulum and I get it. But they're out there in
front of the US eight Office protesting the fact that
they're trying to shut it down and they're going to
have to justify all these expenditures.

Speaker 1 (51:21):
I mean, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (51:24):
Listen, you invited me to a protest about shutting down
something that's near and dear to my heart, and you
told me all of it, that something that I thought
I enjoyed and wanted around was spending money on condoms
in Afghanistan. I wouldn't show up for the protest. I'd
be embarrassed by it.

Speaker 12 (51:41):
Hey, if we only knew, and if you look at
some of our own departments, you know, when they come
up with a balance budget. Man, if you look at
the way, well it's privileged to the way that they
balance the budget, that's almost.

Speaker 2 (51:55):
Criminal, it is it is.

Speaker 12 (51:58):
Let me give you an example. Right here in Meridia, Mississippi,
we're supposed to have one hundred police officer. We only
have about forty.

Speaker 1 (52:08):
Oh wow, that.

Speaker 12 (52:09):
Means sixty that is not there. But that budget that
paid for salary, pension and insurance is still going to
the to the budget. Oh my, all right, so that's
called the unfilled billets. You probably know aboudy that. Yeah,
so that's we got, we got less supposed to be

(52:32):
than we don't have. It is sixty. But when they
went for the budget last year, they had a nine
million dollar budget and increased it by three million. Now
they have a twelve million dollar budget. So it's a
whole lot of flush fund that's going somewhere that need
to be investigated.

Speaker 5 (52:51):
I agree, forty when you're supposed to have one hundred
man when seconds counts, they're going to be minutes or
if not hours away from you.

Speaker 12 (53:01):
James, Hey, you're right, But with that money they balance
a budget. So that's a lot of flesh funds that
they are used and not getting the protection or what
sight are in it.

Speaker 5 (53:18):
No, they aren't. I feel for you on that one, Missipi, James.
I mean the police are short here in the city
of Cincinnati and they just can't get people to sign
up for the job. I mean ignoring the financial realities
that we face here our budget. We have massive budgetary
problems too, much like your community as well. But when
you hear that, and you know the money is actually
going into your city's coffers, and yet it is not

(53:41):
being spent on what it's supposed to be spent on,
at least that allocation, you know there's some shenanigans going on. James,
excellent point. It's everywhere, and both sides of the political
ledger back to your pendulum, man, they're both sides are
responsible for this nonsense. New Hampshire. I'm getting calls small
over the United States today, New Hampshire. Are you so
I got a pause. It's six twenty seven right now.

Fifty five cares to the talk station. And if you're

always point out, the bottom line is the bottom line.
That's particularly your bottom line. Why not pay less to
have at equal, if not maybe better service on your
automobile at Foreign Exchange, And they service all makes and

(54:25):
models of traditionally imported manufacturers, and also Tesla like to
emphasize that they've been trained to service. Tesla's Westchester location
of Foreign Exchange is where I choose to go, and
that's where I find Austin and his awesome a S
certified Master Technicians. They treat you like family. It's this warm,
welcome environment and you have a smile on your face.
And I know repairs can be expensive, but knowing full

(54:46):
well that you saved a lot of money by going
to Foreign Exchange while leaving with a full warranty on
parts and service, that give you peace of mind and
a reason to smile, and they will.

end of the show. The meantime over to the phones,
New Hampshire, Gary, Thanks for holding. Welcome back, my friends.
Good to hear from you again.

Speaker 4 (57:19):
Good to hear from you, Brian. I can now see
why they really want to shut down ACT. I was
reading all morning on the Bill Crystal connection to USAID
and it is mind blowing. They've been giving money through
the Rockefeller I want to get this right. The Rockefeller

(57:40):
Leader Foundation is giving money to the Bill Crystal Foundation,
which is defending democracy above all the things. And he's
been spending the money on democratic platforms and kicking money
all over the place. And then he receives an ice
big back check himself while he writes his New York

(58:03):
Times article. And it is so nefarious. Is it is
just flat out evil? How you know? It's no different
than what the Romans did this. This is really messed up.
So I don't think it's the USAID and all those
people protesting. I don't think they really give a darn
about the condoms and that maybe a little bit, But

(58:26):
I think this is their big hopefully this is their
big slush fun. If not, there's probably a lot more
more nefarious things going on in the country.

Speaker 5 (58:37):
Oh oh yeah, And you know what, everybody knows how
much I support the American veterans in the American military,
and you know the purpose of American militaries. I always
point out, kill people and break things. It's not anymore.
And I know that Pete Haggzeth and the Trump administration
are going to do their best to turn that around
and reshape the mission which never should have been deviated from.
But if you're talking about nine hundred billion dollars the

(59:00):
military funding, you know that that one area of government
funding is also filled with all kinds of nonsensical spending.
It's literally everywhere. When you're spending five six seven trillion
dollars annually, no human being can keep track of it,
No multifaceted, multi prong accounting agency could ever do a

(59:22):
successful audit of it. And oh, look to double down
on that, Gary, They've tried to audit the military budget
like eight times and they fail every single time. Doesn't
that red flag waved high and and and and big
for all to see if they can't even pass an
audit done by the federal government another.

Speaker 4 (59:42):
Day for the military I was in, and you know,
we always called it armored cars, meals on wheels, you know, yeah,
beating everybody in every other country that couldn't do it
for themselves, and we were taking the credit for it.

Speaker 5 (59:55):
You know, yet just waste, absolute waste, And I guess
one night, I appreciate it. Man, you can double down
all day. And you know, if we had the money,
if we had the money, someone might be able to
make an argument supporting condoms to the Taliman.

Speaker 1 (01:00:18):
But we don't.

Speaker 5 (01:00:21):
Beyond the money they take in, we spend an extra
multiple trillions of dollars a year, digging ourselves further and
further into the hole and creating a larger and larger
debt that we must service. And the interest rate on
the debt that we've already accumulated even exceeds the military's

(01:00:42):
budget now, as insane as that budget might happen to be.
We're killing ourselves, literally killing ourselves. And some may argue,
and I'm willing to agree with them, that much of
this may be an intentional effort. Thirty seven fifty five
krecy De Talk station. We are the evil ones in

(01:01:04):
the world, aren't we? At least according to a lot
of people in this world, and a lot of people
that will are in positions of power in our own country.
We're a cancer or something that needs to be cut
out of the globe. Someone to provide massive value. You
need a real estate agent. You need the Peter Shabrin,
the team at a Sabri Group of Keller Williams Seven Hills.

(01:01:24):
They are absolutely the best real estate team ever. Pardon
my cough, Peter Shaber and his team of the Subrine
Group of Keller Williams. No, it's a competitive market out
there and they want to help sure that you land
your dream home. So one of the programs they offer
if you're a buyer, if you're using them as your
buyer's agent. With a Subrin Group, you can leverage the

(01:01:44):
cash to Keys program, which will allow you to make
a cash offer on the home and that quite off
and in many cases leads to a lower price in
better terms because the seller of the homes like great.
It's like walking in with a suitcase of cash. You
meet the the price they're looking for and they don't
have to wait around worry about financing contingencies and all

(01:02:05):
the extra baggage that goes along if the buyer needs
to secure that kind of thing. But that's the kind
of five star experience and service you can expect from
the Shebre Group and just one of many programs the
SBRI group and the team offers it. No other real
estate agents are offering several ways to find them. If
you can't remember the phone number of the website, just
look up Shabrie c Cha b RS Group and your

Company and Milford's place to be where you will be
able to meet if you want to shake his hand
and thank him for a service for our country. On
a submarine, welcome back my submarine or friend Cribbage Mike.
Good to hear from you this morning.

Speaker 14 (01:03:07):
Good morning, sir. Hey with all the other that you've
listed so far from USAA, I think you and Joe
could craft a proposal for a multimillion dollar grant that
they would fund listener lunch where like minded people will
solve all geopolitical problems, will in support a local farmers
and restaurant owners.

Speaker 5 (01:03:27):
I love the concept, Mike, but you know, somewhere along
the lines, they would figure out that most of my listeners,
not everybody that shays a listener to lunch is you know,
a conservative or little libertarian. Everyone is invited, but they
probably would catch on that most of my audience tends
to see in large respect along my political lines, and

(01:03:48):
therefore the grant.

Speaker 1 (01:03:50):
Would be denied.

Speaker 5 (01:03:51):
Although under the current administration we may stand a chance, Mike.
We'll We'll have Joe go back to chat GPT and
crafted proposal.

Speaker 1 (01:03:59):
On that one.

Speaker 14 (01:04:00):
Absolutely, and I would like to once applaud Mayor Peerival
and Charme McGuffey, the Hamil County Sheriff for coming to
their senses and actually said they would support ICE if requested.
But I think it's a sad state of affairs. One
you have to utter a press release to basically do
your job. And the hyphenated Vice Mayor held a neighborhood

(01:04:23):
meeting yesterday at City Council, and I hope her intentions
were noble because I think any person should be aware
of what their rights are. However, when in an interview,
the only thing that she touted was the billions and
billions of dollars they bring into our economy and the
billions of dollars that they pay in taxes, but not
once mentioning the billions of dollars that they stress on

(01:04:46):
the medical, education and housing situation, because for the most part,
I don't see them for the most on average engineering degrees,
eight figure salaries their entry level. And if children are
afraid to go to school where parents are fried to
say sending this school, if you're harboring a criminal, you
should be afraid.

Speaker 5 (01:05:06):
Then well, I'd like to say you didn't call looking
for an argument. And as you're saying that these billions
and billions of dollars they bring to the economy, I'm
just wondering how that can be unless they are, for example,
making a salary above a certain amount, they're not even
going to be paying federal income tax, not sir.

Speaker 14 (01:05:27):
And then what of, for example, to ship back to
their home of origin.

Speaker 5 (01:05:31):
Well, and that happens all the time, we're all aware
of that. But then what of as you mentioned the
weight that it is placed upon these sanctuary cities. The
billions of dollars that have been spent on housing and
shelter and food and medical care and schooling. That isn't
made up. I mean, if it was all a gain
to every community, then they wouldn't be showing these massive

(01:05:53):
budget deficits exacerbated by the influx of illegal immigrants who
need all these social welfare services.

Speaker 14 (01:06:00):
And it's been very well documented in the run up
to the election and even afterwards. If you poll anyone
who has come to this country that we have always
welcomed immigration that did it legally and had to wait
five ten years and spend their own money to do it,
they're not too happy about the current situation.

Speaker 5 (01:06:19):
No, they're not not at all, because it's their communities
as well that have been overwhelmed and are having struggles
dealing with the problem that's created by this unmitigated, unregulated
influx of humanity into our country over the last several years.
You're right, they have every right to be angry about it. Hey,
what about me, I waited in line, I did it legally.
You mean I wasted my time and I would get

(01:06:41):
all this large jess thanks to the American taxpayer. Had
I just walked across the border. What the hell was
I thinking? You know, studying and going to classes and
learning about American history, and waiting and waiting and waiting
for the opportunity to get sworn in proudly as an
American citizen.

Speaker 1 (01:06:58):
Yep.

Speaker 5 (01:06:59):
Looking forward to our game today, Mike, you're gonna bring
your a game. Of course you will. You always do.
That's why you always beat me. Thanks Mike, I'll see
in a few hours. Six forty six fifty five cares

to make twenty five bucks now and even later. Multiple
opportunities to get twenty five bucks from Memory Federal Credit
Union bus just by well becoming a member. There's twenty

Speaker 2 (01:07:58):
Fifty five K.

Speaker 5 (01:08:01):
Fifty five KRCD talk station and a very happy Wednesday
to you, having a lot of fun.

Speaker 1 (01:08:06):
This morning started off.

Speaker 5 (01:08:07):
With all these absolutely insane USA grants, just absolute proof
that our government is run amok, out of control, funding
any any stupid project that you can come up with.
And I posed the question earlier this morning, like, you know,
what does it take to get a proof for funding?
I said Joe Strecker, Once you throw in chat GPT

(01:08:27):
and ask it for help. And so we made up
some really rather comical things. But sit there, you have cribbage, Mike,
how about a government grant to fund listener lunches? So
Joe was hard at work over the break there throwing
in chat EPT securing our government grant it says for
funding lunches aimed at problems. Solving discussions can be challenging,
but not impossible here's a structured approach to increase your

(01:08:50):
chances of success. They say, identify right grant opportunities. Look
for grants related to community engagement, policy, innovation, social entrepreneurs owership,
or small businesses. Places to look grants dot gov, which
is US federal grants, State of local government, economic development agencies,
community development block grants, National Endowment for Humanities or National

(01:09:13):
Science Foundation for policy driven discussions. Small business loans. Then
to find a clear mission in public benefit. To qualify
for funding, you need to demonstrate a public good beyond
just networking frame. It is supporting local economies. Ah, there
you go. It s boosting small businesses, local restaurants, encouraging

(01:09:33):
civic engagement, and innovative problem solving. Our listeners at the
lunch solve every problem known to man. Ask someone for
an opinion on how to solve a problem. You'll get
an answer, creating actionable solutions with measurable outcomes. Number three
partner with a nonprofit or physcal sponsor and Joe Strecker

(01:09:54):
thought of a great idea. Let's partner with the help Squad.
It's a five p OH one three C organization which
chat GPT specifically mentioned. Consider partnering with a five oh
one three C organization, or maybe Patriots landing, that wonderful
organization with the wood shop that helps American veterans deal
with their problems and provides them with employment opportunities in
a place to hang out. Number four, prepare a strong

(01:10:18):
proposal winning a grant proposal toenshoot, it should include a
problem statement like what global or local issues are you
addressing all of them? Right, Joe, That's exactly what I
was gonna say. How will your group contribute to solutions? Again,
we answer all the questions that we have, show how
grant money will be used e g. Meals at mom

(01:10:39):
and pop restaurants. It actually churned that out, Joe. I
think we can apply for funding. Joe Strecker says, we
want seventeen million dollars. I'm surprised you were so conservative
with your grant request there, Joe, and explore alternative funding
if government grants are too restrictive, can inter corporate sponsorships,

(01:11:01):
crowdfunding a go fundme page for the fifty five k
see listener lunch.

Speaker 1 (01:11:10):
Yeah, well you're right.

Speaker 5 (01:11:11):
If you went more than seventeen million dollars, Elon Musk
might flag you and you'll end up in a widely distributed,
multi pronged revelation because these USAID programs, I think are
like on every single news dump outlet, that's how crazy
they are. You can find this the list of these

(01:11:31):
programs that you and I funded and paid for around
the globe that deal with the dumbest possible things you
could ever conceive, reported everywhere, like the gay opera in
I don't know where was that one used Bekistan or
something like that. Anyhow, we'll get some sage wisdom from

(01:11:56):
Jack Atherton right after the top of the ro news
that you can stick around for that, and we're gonna
have Corey Bowman in studio. He's running against the aftab
Purwall jd Vance's half brother and from all accounts, a
really good guy. We'll find out together coming up at
seven point thirty. Please stick around from.

Speaker 15 (01:12:11):
A full rundown and the biggest ten lines just minutes
away at the top of the hour.

Speaker 2 (01:12:15):
I'm giving you a fact now the Americans should know.
Fifty five krs the talk station.

Speaker 5 (01:12:34):
Seven oh five, the fifty five car CD talk station.
It's a happy Wednesday listener to lunch Wednesday, hope to
see in Milford at Little Miami burn Company today. And
always a great day to be tuned into the O.
Time to be tuned into the fifty five Carric Morning
Show because we get to hear from lawyer and author
and anchorman and scholar Jack Abadan. Welcome back to the
Morning Show, my friend. Always love hearing from you on

(01:12:55):
the show.

Speaker 9 (01:12:56):
Morning Pal. Just a few hours, Ames Lee and I
are going to join him everybody at today's listener lunch.

Speaker 5 (01:13:02):
Oh you kidding, fantastic. The number of listeners going to
show up today just increased dramatically. Could see you Jack,
That's awesome. We'll see Tell your Jack Atherton authored books
and I bet you Jack would be more than happy
to sign him.

Speaker 9 (01:13:17):
Oh that's sweet. Look For anybody who didn't catch this
last night, President Trump sprang his biggest surprise yet, and
that's saying something announcing during the White House press conference
with Israel's Prime Minister net and Yahoo that he wants
to relocate almost two million Palestinians from Gaza to other countries,

(01:13:41):
including Egypt and Jordan. Then Trump wants the US to
take what he calls ownership of Gaza and the developer
wants to develop it into quote the riviera of the
Middle East. That's because the tiny Gaza Strip lies next
to Israel on the Mediterranean, so it could be nice

(01:14:02):
an international population, including some Palestinians, but not all would
then be allowed to buy property and move in. We
do history, Brian, so let's understand how we got here. Gaza,
for hundreds of years was controlled back and forth by
Egypt or at the outset of World War One, the

(01:14:24):
Old Ottoman Empire what today we call the Turks. They
were allies of Kaiser Wilhelm. When Germany lost the war,
Great Britain took over Gaza and also what was then
called Palestine. When Israel was granted independence in nineteen forty eight,
its borders did not include the Gaza Strip, but after

(01:14:45):
its neighbors invaded Israel in nineteen sixty seven, Israel took
over Gaza. Right fast forward twenty five years as part
of the Oslo Accord. Anybody remembers that world old enough.
In the nineth Israel granted Gaza autonomy. It was great,
but that's when the Hamas terror group moved in. It

(01:15:09):
began shooting rockets NonStop into Israel and building tunnels. So
Hamas could launch attax. The worst one, of course, was
October seven, twenty twenty three mass murders, rapes, seizing hostages,
including the ones they still hold. Hamas is a client
of Iran. In his first term, Trump neutralized Iran and

(01:15:34):
Hamas by imposing an oil embargo and other sanctions that
almost bankrupted the Mollahs and kept them from funding terror
groups until Joe Biden lifted those sanctions. Well yesterday afternoon,
when Trump reinstituted his pressure campaign to keep Iran from

(01:15:54):
building a nuclear weapon, the sanctions went back on. And
that's how we thought that Trump would protect Israel until
last night when he revealed this new plan for Gaza.
What's now flumixing even some fervent Trump supporters like Maybrien
is that he always criticized George W. Bush for getting

(01:16:16):
America deeply involved in governing Iraq and Afghanistan, two ruinous wars.
Besides that, Egypt, Jordan and other Muslim neighbors have never
shown any willingness to take in Palestinians. They see them
as subversive radicals. Beyond that, while Trump wants to cut

(01:16:37):
funding in Ukraine and other foreign countries, he now wants
to invest in Gaza, and of course it's not at
all clear how the US could legally assert ownership. Yes,
we helped run Germany and Japan after World War II,
but both of those countries had waged war on America,
not on one of our allies. Trump believes he can

(01:17:01):
get Muslim nations, including Saudi Arabia, to foot most of
the bill for this redevelopment, and I wouldn't put any
negotiation past him. Maybe his talk of America owning Gaza
is more like his offers to make Canada and Greenland
the fifty first and fifty second states.

Speaker 1 (01:17:20):
He likes to stir the pot ack. He likes to
stir the pot.

Speaker 9 (01:17:23):
And it works. But you've got to wonder what the
reaction to all this will be, at least in the
short term. From the Middle East to our own college campuses,
to Muslims in Michigan who only recently became Trump supporters,
they're calling Trump's plan mass deportation, ethnic cleansing, even though

(01:17:44):
the President insists no one will even be able to
live in Gaza for ten or fifteen years, because it's now,
thanks to Iran and to Moss, nothing but rubble. So
they have to find someplace else to live. Well, that's
the background. How do you think all of this is
going to shake out?

Speaker 5 (01:18:05):
Well, you just you know, sort of ask the questions
that I've had in the back of my mind since
I read the headlines about it. And you know, like
I said, he likes to stir the pot, and I
think he likes to go really really large with his
with his promises. You know, he is a negotiator. Anybody
who negotiates know, you gotta ask, and you got to
start big, because then you can pare down your your

(01:18:27):
your overwhelming unachievable demands to something that may and you
or to your benefit, but will be less than for example,
turning Canada into a state. But you got to start somewhere.
And saying the United States is going to take over
and rebuild Gaza, I think is the starting point to
hopefully maybe getting something positive done there. But insofar as deportation, listen,

(01:18:49):
if I'm a Palestinian and I can find a place
that isn't a you know, burned out hollow shell of
a core of a city and I want to stay there,
I'm going to say I don't want to go to Egypt.
You can't make me go to Egypt. This is where
I live.

Speaker 1 (01:19:05):
So how do you.

Speaker 5 (01:19:06):
Deal with people who aren't inclined to want to move
to a different country with which they have no connection.

Speaker 9 (01:19:12):
It remains to be seen, But people who talk about
Palestinian genocide have to remember that the larger Palestinian population
is in the larger property the West Bank. You can
still negotiate if you wanted to a two state solution there. Anyway,
we'll just have to see the next thing I wanted
to talk about. I guess we'll have to do one

(01:19:33):
after a break, Brian. It's Dei and the consequences of
not just their hiring, but they're refusal to hire.

Speaker 5 (01:19:41):
All right, let's do that. We'll take an early break.
We got a minute, but we'll pause here for a moment.
Seven thirteen. We'll hear more about when DEI refuses to hire,
and he's going to tell us about a forgotten Supreme
Court case like so many that I have forgotten more
with the brilliance of Jack Adad. And it's seven thirteen
right now, and I get to mention my great friends
at chim Care for.

Speaker 1 (01:20:00):
Coming up next. Bottom of the hour. We won't do
the news.

Speaker 5 (01:20:03):
We're talking to Corey Bowman, who is a candidate for
the mayor of the City of Cincinnati, Republican, and it
just happens to be jd Vance's half brother as well.
Looking forward to having Corey in studio. In the meantime,
always enjoy having Jack addident on the program. Jack, you're
getting ready to pivot into DEI when DEI refuses to hire.
Let's talk about that.

Speaker 9 (01:20:25):
I am still shaken, brother, by the collision of that
passenger plane and Blackhawk helico. They're over DC. That took
sixty seven lives. President Trump got blasted for his immediate reaction,
but he raised valid questions, not answers. Not yet, nobody
should be jumping the gun. But Trump raised necessary questions

(01:20:48):
about the Federal Aviation Administration's diversity hiring under Biden, and
more important, its refusal to hire. Now, let's be clear,
there was nothing wrong I think with the FAA reaching
out to predominantly black and Hispanic and Native American schools
like the Rooney rule in football. I think it's never

(01:21:09):
wrong to seek out good candidates where you haven't before,
where you haven't been looking.

Speaker 1 (01:21:15):
For them exactly.

Speaker 9 (01:21:16):
But look what happened in DC. Despite the fact that
control towers are chronically understaffed and have been, and that
Washington and other cities have seen a rash of near missus.
A class action lawsuit alleges that the FAA denied jobs
to one thousand air traffic applicants because they did not

(01:21:38):
meet dea DEI pardon me targets. They left vifal jobs
unfilled because the FAA could only find white applicants. That's
now been outlawed by Trump, and he's following a Supreme
Court precedent that I haven't heard discussed. You may recall
Brian a case laid out in my book, A Lighthearted

(01:22:02):
History of Liberty. In two thousand and three, New Haven, Connecticut,
gave an exam to firefighters seeking promotion. These were highly
technical tests because lives depended on having highly qualified lieutenants
and captains. Diversity was already an issue twenty years ago
that usually called the affirmative action. To avoid any complaints,

(01:22:26):
New Haven, a liberal city I know, I went to
school there, hired an outside consultant to ensure the tests
were racially neutral. Nineteen firefighters qualified for immediate promotion, yet
the firefighter the fire department promoted none of them because
none of them were African American. One of the qualifying

(01:22:50):
firefighters struggled with dyslexia. Frank Ricci had to quit his
second job to prepare for this exam, paying about one
thousand dollars for materials and training, and, as it turned out,
all for nothing. So Richie joined the other applicants, including
an Hispanic firefighter, to sue, claiming the city had set

(01:23:12):
an illegal quota. A three member federal appeals court that
included then Judge Sonya Soda Mayor upheld New Haven's refusal
to fill those jobs. Soon afterward, in nominating Soda Mayor
for the US Supreme Court, President Obama praised her empathy,

(01:23:34):
but Frank Ricci and the other firefighters found that empathy
highly selected. Thankfully, their fight wasn't over. Splitting five to four,
the Supreme Court upheld Ricci and his colleagues. This was
just before Sodo Mayor joined the High Court, although in fairness,
she's no worse than the other liberal justices. Brian in

(01:23:56):
twenty first century America, we must not permit discrimination or
reverse discrimination, even when lives are not at risk, but
especially when they are. The better way to close racial
gaps in government and the private sector, is to provide
better primary and secondary school education, which includes school choice.

(01:24:20):
More important, parents, mothers and fathers must help their kids study,
must help them avoid poisonous influences, both human and electronic.
But that would require treating parents like responsible adults, not
helpless victims, but require government to take responsibility for their children.

(01:24:41):
Woke progressives will keep trying to divide us along lines
of race, gender, sexual preference, religion, political party, any other
skinner box they can stick us in to receive rewards
or punishments. Now, old time Democrats, same Democrats, Franklin Roosevelt,

(01:25:01):
Harry Truman, Jack Kennedy, they didn't see the world this way, folks.
They did not seek to divide and conquer us. Donald
Trump's selection shows that more and more Democrats who reject
woke ideology, who see themselves as Americans, they want the
opportunity to compete in a land that recognizes merit, not victimhood,

(01:25:25):
not identity politics. That's more just to everyone. And Brian,
it's going to save.

Speaker 1 (01:25:31):
Lives, Yes, it will.

Speaker 5 (01:25:33):
And as you were talking about the air traffic controllers,
and of course lives are in their hands. Literally, I
was thinking about the medical community and how much DEI
has invaded medical schools. Listen, I don't want an equity higher.
I want someone who is the best diagnostician that they
can turn out of a medical school. I want the
best and brightest, and I do not care a wit

(01:25:56):
the color of their skin or their religion. I want
them to be competent physicians. And in fact, two of
my doctors I believe are Indian Pakistani Indian and they're
they're fantastic. What you do my cancer doctor and my
eye doctor. I'm getting ready to have eye surgery by
someone who is not a white person. And do I
am I concerned, not a least bit concerned. I know

(01:26:16):
I'm in great hands. That's what is important. That you
are being treated by a physician that knows what they're doing,
not that they check some box that someone made up.

Speaker 9 (01:26:26):
This diversity hiring a firmative action is a disservice to
qualified Sometimes the most qualified minority doctors, engineers, you name it,
because you know you don't know whether they're they're based
on merit or based on these these terrible woke ideologies.

Speaker 5 (01:26:45):
Yeah, it doesn't disservice to everyone to go down that road,
and thankfully it seems that we're pulling the rug out
from underneath all that nonsense. Elections have consequences, and along
those lines that we can we can all be thankful
for the outcome that so far has been brought about
by Donald Trump's election. Seven thirty two fifty five KRCD
Talks Station. I've been looking forward to this since I

(01:27:09):
found out from West Side Jim Kiefer, who always seems
to get the information before anybody else. He's one of
my favorite little birds feeding me information in studio. Mayor
old candidate Corey Bowman. Corey, great to have you here.
I'm glad you made the trip into the studio.

Speaker 8 (01:27:23):
Great to be here. Thanks for having me, Brian.

Speaker 5 (01:27:25):
And you know, it's a parenthetical for me, because I
doubt you put it on your resume, but I think
it's important for my listeners to know your brother happens
to be the vice President of the United States of America.

Speaker 6 (01:27:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:27:36):
I'm considering putting on my resume just for the heck
of it, you know, maybe get some benefits there as well.
But yes, he is my half brother on my father's side.

Speaker 5 (01:27:44):
It's inspiring to you or I think you have a
huge measure of pride for him.

Speaker 8 (01:27:49):
Absolutely.

Speaker 3 (01:27:50):
You know, I just did an interview yesterday and I
just told people that the number one thing is that
he's a big brother to me, and he's a role
model to me. You know, he's four years older than me,
and to be able to see what he's been able
to accomplish, and to be able to see it on
that big of a stage is just so inspiring.

Speaker 5 (01:28:07):
Got to be incredible. And I mean he you know,
I'll be speaking out loud. I'm fifty ifty sixty in September,
and I consider him and you know young young men,
and that I never in my wildest thank you, I
wouldn't imagine. I mean, even in my age, with my
life experience, I mean, taking on a role of even
being mayor of the City of Cincinnati. I think I'd
be out of my element or out of your mind. Yeah,

(01:28:30):
or that's what people have told me. You're running as
a Republican in the city of Cincinnati, and I have
to give and sorry, Taylor, uh, hold on, where's my
reading glasses on my head? Taylor whiter Weader from WCPO
wrote a little article about you, and he said, Cincinnati
has not had a Republican mayor since Bill Gradison Junior
in nineteen seventy one, who was elected after Eugene Ruhlman.

(01:28:53):
But no Ken Blackwell was mayor between nineteen seventy nine
and nineteen eighty. I think he was the last Republican.
So obviously a Sisathian like challenge for Republican to become
mayor of the City of Cincinnati. But you know what,
Donald Trump just got elected but and won the popular vote.
People are upset with the direction of the Democrat Party,

(01:29:13):
so you know, it's within the realm of possibility. Obviously
you wouldn't be taking a stab at running.

Speaker 3 (01:29:18):
Yeah, I to be honest with you, this didn't even
cross my mind in recent days, but I put on
a post for my announcement that a few weeks ago
we landed in CVG from coming back from the inauguration.
And one thing if you know me and my wife
and our family is that we love the city of Cincinnati.
Oh yeah, and this is just our home. This isn't

(01:29:41):
a stepping stone. This is like we came here four
years ago, which I'm from the area. I was in
Tampa for nine years, but whenever I came back. We
came back because this is our home, that's where we
want to raise our family. And it wasn't even on
the outskirts. We love the downtown area in Cincinnati proper.

Speaker 6 (01:29:58):
Well.

Speaker 3 (01:29:58):
Then as time started, you know, going on and seeing
what happened at the inauguration, I just ended up saying, hey,
is this a realm that can help this city in
my life? And so I looked it up and the
last I saw was all the SATs that you just said,
and no Republican mayor since the seventies. And it's basically
like bullies in my mind, and I don't like bullies. Well,

(01:30:21):
and we need a dissenting opinion. It's an echo chamber
since they counsel, say the mayor, all they do is
talk amongst themselves and say, yeah, you're right, No, you're right,
yet absolutely without anybody raising their hand, just sort of questioning,
like wait a second, hold on, let's contemplate perhaps this
or that angle to any particular solution.

Speaker 5 (01:30:41):
So that's exactly how I saw it. Wonderful all right, Well,
to take a break at is break time. We're going
to continue this conversation with Corey Bowman. Corey needs signatures
in order to become a candidate for the mayor of
City of Cincinnati, he's got to collect and to submit
one thousand qualified signatures. So everybody get together and helps
support Corey in his effered along those lines real quick

(01:31:01):
here though, First a word for twenty two three Firearms
Range gun Store Route forty two between Mason eleven and
my favorite gun store ever. The owners there, Wendy and Jeff,
are just the best people, best people, And if you
have never been to twenty two three, you got a
great incentive to do that because this Saturday between ten
am and four pm, Shaw Armament will be there on

What a great guy.

Speaker 5 (01:33:24):
I'm having a good time talking on and off air
with Corey Bowman, who is running for mayor at least
he hopes to. He needs signatures, and there's a way
you can help Corey get the signatures. He'll be at
his coffee shop in addition to being the pastor and
founder of the River Church. We're gonna learn about that
from Corey here at a moment. He also with his
wife owns King's Arms coffee shop. He said it's in

(01:33:45):
the West End, Yes, sir, Yeah, it's on Bay Miller,
Bay Miller in the West End.

Speaker 3 (01:33:49):
On a website nineteen hundred Bay Miller Street, and we are.
It's King's Armscoffee dot Com wonderful.

Speaker 5 (01:33:56):
So if you can show up at King's Arms, he's
actually working today, he said. His barista has taken a
couple of days off, so behind the counter he will be.
You get to shake hands with him, meet him and
sign a petition to have Corey run for mayor. Now
pivoting over in addition to the owning King's Arms Coffee shop,
the River Church. Tell my listeners about the mission, the denomination,

(01:34:16):
if there is one, and how you ended up founding
that church.

Speaker 12 (01:34:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:34:20):
Absolutely, So you know, I grew up in the area.

Speaker 3 (01:34:23):
I had what I would call as an encounter with
the Lord, just basically me making that decision for myself
for the first time in my life to follow whatever
God's plan was for my life. I think a lot
of people need to come to that place and themselves.
Don't just get your religion from what you grew up
when with, but you have to make that decision yourself.
So I got to that point about fourteen years ago,

(01:34:45):
still in Cincinnati area, but I felt, hey, I just
graduated from Miami of Ohio with business. But before I
venture off in anything, I'm going to go to Bible
School in Tampa, Florida. It was a ministry that helped
change my life. It was past Is Rodney and Donica
Howard Brown and Tampa, Florida.

Speaker 1 (01:35:03):
That was the River Church.

Speaker 3 (01:35:04):
So long story short, we basically went to school there,
met my wife there, started raising our family there. I
was there for nine years, and in the final year
that I was there, COVID happened and my pastor was
the first one in Florida to be arrested just for having.

Speaker 5 (01:35:20):
Church leader of the resistance I just mentioned off. Eric went,
I mean, have you ever seen the First Amendment of
the United States Constitution trampled on more than during COVID.
Absolutely not freedom of assembly, a free exercise of religion,
freedom of speech, all thrown out the door in the
name of this nonsensical COVID nineteen thing we had going on.

Speaker 1 (01:35:41):
But you could still go to Best Buy.

Speaker 4 (01:35:44):
No.

Speaker 8 (01:35:44):
Absolutely. That was during that time.

Speaker 3 (01:35:46):
That's when we realized how important local government was because
they could say things from the federal level. But if
the local government is fighting tooth and nail against those
or fighting against the constitution, then that's where the rights
are going to be hindered. And so what happened with
us was that we saw firsthand them trying to shut
down our church during COVID. We were feeding a thousand

(01:36:07):
families a week. My wife was the head of a
call center. We were taking prayer calls. We had student
body that we were helping as well many members that
just needed that sense of community, and they were trying
to shut that down. So whenever we saw that firsthand
and all the craziness, that's probably what started a little
bit in me of realizing the importance of local government.

(01:36:29):
And when that happened during that time, our heart has
always been the people of Cincinnati. You can ask any
of my friends. Whenever I was going to Bible school
or even whenever I was at Miami is that downtown
Cincinnati was my heart. That's where I'm always going to be.
That's where the Reds games are, That's where Skyline is.
That's where Skyline and Greaters have combined right now, hallelujah.

(01:36:50):
And so there's all these things that are just ingrained
in me about the city. Well, during that time, we
realized that people were suffering, that people needed that sense
of community, they needed that sense of belonging in the
downtown area and so in twenty twenty, we just packed
our bags and we started the River Church, Cincinnati, right
in the middle of all of it.

Speaker 5 (01:37:09):
That's truly amazing, and I hate that we have taken
another break. We're going to come back and find out
what Corey's ideas are for the city of Cincinnati if
he were mayor, and I'm looking forward to seeing that
and how he's gonna well deal with the challenges he
invariably will face given the makeup of the political makeup
rather the city of Cincinnati first, So call it electric

just head on over at some point today or Tomorrow's
going to be at his coffee shop, King's Arms coffee Shop.
And you can also consider checking out the River Church,
which is Pastor Bowman's church.

Speaker 8 (01:39:51):
Where's the church located right in the west End Still,
it's right.

Speaker 3 (01:39:54):
It's about a block away from Taft High School, and
it's rock Cross Street from Star Our Goal Football Stadium
where the CPS meets, and it's.

Speaker 1 (01:40:04):
It is non denominational.

Speaker 5 (01:40:05):
It's just it's it's christ base, it's it's Bible based,
but you don't adhere to like a Catherine doctor and
Episcopalian doctrine or yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:40:13):
No, I just tell people.

Speaker 3 (01:40:14):
A lot of times people ask if it's non denominational,
but that's kind of becoming a denomination itself, and people
kind of assume something about that as well. Ross Roads exactly.
I wish it, you know, not bad talking to any
of these others. I basically just tell people we believe
the Bible, we believe the power of God, and that's
something we've received and that we want other people to experience.

Speaker 5 (01:40:33):
Father of three with one on the way, when's your
when does your wife do for this is to do
at the end of June early July. Well, I wish
you all the best in the world on that. Thank you,
family man.

Speaker 1 (01:40:44):
He is all right.

Speaker 5 (01:40:45):
Pivoting over to politics, of course, being the mayor of
the City of Cincinnati, Voll's politics. You obviously perceived the
city to be going in the wrong direction. Otherwise you
wouldn't want to challenge mayor. I have to have purvall.
What's your plan for the city, What do you want
to accomplish? If you were in that role.

Speaker 3 (01:41:01):
Well, I think what got me started on it was
the fact that there was wasn't really any opposition, And
like what we talked about earlier, you cannot be in
an echo chamber. There has to be conversation, there has
to be debate, there has to be differences of opinion.
Over the last years of being downtown, I've had a
chance to talk with people on the streets, leaders in

(01:41:22):
the community, but also just residents that are suffering. And
we don't start the conversation off with hey, i'm blue,
you're red or whatever. We actually just like talk about
experience and then whatever the conversation leads to. It was
not based on the side. It was based on the
experience and what common sense might.

Speaker 5 (01:41:43):
Be perceived solutions as opposed to politics governing the discussion exactly. Yeah,
we live in such a divided society. You could come
up with the best idea in the world, but if
you articulate it by saying, you know, I'm a Republican
and I think we should do this, the other side
just can immediately say no, yeah, yeah, I hate that
about politics.

Speaker 3 (01:41:59):
And I believe reporter asked me yesterday, are you running
as a Republican or Democrat. And I just I told her,
I said, well, in the city, you can't run as
a Republican or Democrat. It's a non parson you know,
you know, actual position. But I will say that my
views are on the side of more conservative. But that
doesn't mean that there isn't a room for debate and conversation.

(01:42:20):
What I've seen over the last four years of being
downtown is that first and foremost, I love the city.
I'm not here to say this. You know, city as
a hell hole and we need to fix everything. There's
a reason why I love the city so much. I
believe this is and people think I'm biased, which I am,
But I truly believe it's the greatest city on the
face of the earth. It's the queen city, it's the
epicenter of the Midwest. I really believe that has the

(01:42:42):
greatest potential of any city that we see in our area.
But I truly believe also that there's policies that have
been in place over the last four years that have
really hindered an acceleration of growth in our city and
also has left certain communities just left in the dust.

Speaker 5 (01:42:59):
Yeah, that's typically the case, and you'll hear from those
communities every time a new election comes around. You know,
are you going to come over here and pay attention
to us for a change in terms of prioritization law enforcement,
you in favor and pro law enforcement, not as opposed
to being a defund police kind of anti policy.

Speaker 3 (01:43:16):
We have to support our public offices and we have
to support our police department. I think one of the
biggest things is that you have to increase the morale
and the out how people perceive law enforcement is that
law enforcement we are at the coffee shop. When police
officers come by, they are there to help the community,
they're there to protect the community. And we're living in

(01:43:38):
a city to where people are actually afraid to make
a report. Businesses specifically sometimes are afraid for the cops
to even come because if it's a false alarm, instead
of just saying, hey, we're here to help, they get
a fee because it was a false alarm. And so
these are things to where that's on the individuals of
the police department. Those are just policies in a culture

(01:44:01):
that we need to kind of change and just realize
we back the police department, we back our fire department,
but they're here to help the community.

Speaker 5 (01:44:09):
Okay, I'd be remiss if I didn't ask you what
your stand is on We already got one leg your
stance on a streetcar expansion.

Speaker 3 (01:44:18):
I believe that public transportation is a huge issue, and
I think that if you are in the city, infrastructure, roads,
these are things that have to be a priority. Sometimes
we put these blanket statements on things based on issues
that don't really affect the everyday people. The streetcar is
a huge topic. I will say this that being downtown,
the streetcar does benefit certain people and it is a

(01:44:41):
good thing. But there are certain ways that's been implemented
or perceived or maybe putting too much effort into something
that could be put into something else. I believe that
you just got to look at it and kind of
just rethink some things.

Speaker 5 (01:44:54):
Well, and we're not going to unring that bell, but
you know, my favorite gripe is you know the Sun's
that the road has been in a state of horrific
disrepair for probably fifteen years, if not longer, and no
one's ever bothered to fix it.

Speaker 1 (01:45:08):
And I'm not the only one.

Speaker 5 (01:45:10):
We had a caller that used to call every once
in a while named Fred, and he's like, fix my street.
I just want my street fixed, and infrastructure seems to
be falling apart while the powers that be are pursuing
all these you know, bright and shiny objects.

Speaker 3 (01:45:23):
I also think too, that people wouldn't be as frustrated
about it if they weren't promised for the last four
years that the purchases and the money and the funding
that have come in will go toward infrastructure. If anything,
this last winter has showed that that money isn't being
used properly.

Speaker 5 (01:45:39):
Yea, I certainly echo that sentiment. And then of course
we have outstanding pension problems. Not sure that you're capable
of dealing with that, but it's got to be a
priority at some point because people are going to be
relying on that.

Speaker 12 (01:45:53):
Well.

Speaker 3 (01:45:53):
Yeah, I think that you know this term and this
is actually ring true with the federal government as well well.
Is one of the biggest issues is we have to
manage money properly. We have to be able to look
at our budgets, we have to be able to look
at what's coming in. I truly believe that there's plenty
to be able to take care of our city, to
be able to take care of these issues, But it

(01:46:14):
comes down to money management. If you're not a good
steward of what you've been given, you know, I'll just
you know, quote the Bible says, if you're faithful with
a little, you'll be ruled over much. And so if
and I'm not saying that Cincinnati has little, we have plenty.
We have great people, we have great resources, and we
have great funding. But I truly believe that the management
of that needs to be reevaluated in order to focus

(01:46:38):
on the issues that are really important to people.

Speaker 5 (01:46:40):
Corey Bowman and he is learning for mayor. If he
gets the signatures, you can help him out. And doing that,
I'm sure he'll be other places beyond King's Arms coffee shop,
which is where you'll find him today and tomorrow behind
the counter, making you up a great cup of coffee
and having a petition there to get him on the ballot.

Speaker 1 (01:46:56):
I wish you all the best of luck. I really do.

Speaker 5 (01:46:58):
It would be a refreshing alternative to the status quo
we've been dealing with for a long time, which has
led us to what some describe, like me, a pretty
sorry state in terms of some of the issues we
talked about this morning. Corey, thanks again for making the
trip into the studio, and I'm sure you and I
will talk again.

Speaker 3 (01:47:13):
Absolutely, thank you for having me I will. I do
want to say that the names on the petitions do
need to be registered voters in the Cincinnati Proper Action
in the day Town area, So if you're planning on coming,
you can stop by and visit me. I would love
to shake your hand, but if you're want to sign
a petition, it has to be a registered voter in
the city.

Speaker 5 (01:47:30):
Important clarification. Corey, good luck man, Thank you again. We'll
talk soon.

Speaker 6 (01:47:36):

and everybody else that shows up at lunch, including Curbage Mike.
He's invited. Don't know that he can make it. Welcome
to the fifty five KRC Morning Show and thank God
for your service for our country. Dan Claire he is

(01:48:45):
the chief Communications and Outreach Officer for the Disabled American Veterans.
You can find them in line at DAV dot org.
He's got an amazing background. Marine Corps veteran of the
Persian Golf and an Air Force veteran of the War
in Iraq. He's been with the He's been the Communications
and Outreach Officer for the DAV since August of twenty nineteen,
but he's got a long history with the DVAV. Welcome

(01:49:09):
Dan Claire. If I went through your resume and your CV,
we wouldn't have any time to talk about this boot
camp that we're going to be. You're giving us the
details on Good to have you on the fifty five
Carse Morning Show.

Speaker 18 (01:49:18):
Sir, hey Brian, thanks for having me, and thank you
for your support for veterans. You have quite a reputation
for supporting our cause, so thank you so much.

Speaker 5 (01:49:27):
It's the least I can do. I tell people every
single time that's brought up. I did not enlist, and
I have such profound respect for those who just threw
the dice by enlisting, not knowing where they were going
to end up or what they were going to be doing.
And real quick on that note, as your CV notes,
you're a Marine Corps veteran of the Persian Golf and

(01:49:47):
an Air Force veteran of the war in Iraq.

Speaker 1 (01:49:50):
How does that happen?

Speaker 18 (01:49:53):
Well, you spent four years in the Marine Corps and
I got out right before nine to eleven. So I
got out and came back in right before nine to
eleven just to keep my military service going in the
Air National Guard, and then nine to eleven happened. So
I deployed on nine to eleven to help FEMA teams
and here we are.

Speaker 4 (01:50:09):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (01:50:10):
Well, okay, let's begin with the Disabled American Veterans Program
again DAV dot org. What's the organization all about? What
is the purpose of its existence?

Speaker 18 (01:50:21):
You know, we're trying to keep promises to veterans. We're
trying to make sure that if a veteran was changed
in service, that we're doing everything we can to help
them meet their maximum potential. And that's what DAV Patriot
boot Camp. This entrepreneur program that we have this morning
is all about that. It's a three day cohort. We're
going to be helping about fifty five We expect entrepreneurs

(01:50:41):
and the veteran and military connected community. We're going to
give them the building blocks that they need so that
they can be company owners, so that they can be
benefits providers, so they contribute, can continue to contribute to
our country. It's an amazing program and it wouldn't be possible,
you know, talking about people who did not serve. This
program would not be possible without the many many local

(01:51:03):
CEOs here in Cincinnati who contribute. We have more than
twenty mentors who are coming from the CEO ranks here locally.
It's a great program and they bring tremendous value to
these veterans who just want the chance to have business
to be more accessible to them.

Speaker 5 (01:51:18):
Well, there's nothing like a successful person in business that
has all those has experience, been there, done that build
those He knows about those foundational building blocks that inevitably
lead to success. Now, the folks that are going to
be attending this boot camp, are they want to be
future entrepreneurs or do they already have businesses of some

(01:51:40):
sort and are and seeking to expand and learn more
about how that happens. Who qualifies to be a part
of this group.

Speaker 18 (01:51:48):
Well, we're making a big investment in these folks. So
we were looking for people who have made some concrete
steps to show that they're serious, that they have a
business idea, that they usually have websites, they have ne
in you know, they're they're they're raising some funds, they're
hiring some people because those are the people, you know,
who were taking a risk on and we think that
they're going to excel, and so we want to get

(01:52:10):
them in the program so that they can grow. It's
taken that next sleep for their companies.

Speaker 5 (01:52:16):
From What areas of business do the mentors come from?
Because I'm certain of my listening audience, So someone out
there has got their ears perked up, going, Hey, that
sounds like something I would like to help out with.

Speaker 18 (01:52:27):
Oh, it's awesome. They're CEOs, they're folks in marketing, their
attorneys founders. I mean the list locally. We just had
actually an attorney from Dinsmore and he is donating Brett
renzen Brink is donating five thousand dollars worth of legal
services to support these veteran entrepreneurs. These these are just
people who've been there, done that kind of in terms

(01:52:49):
of their careers, and they want to give back. They
want to help veterans avoid those early mistakes that they
might have made in their careers and their businesses so
that they can get the trajectory they need to succeed.

Speaker 5 (01:53:00):
Right, So I guess in terms of the legal services
that are being volunteered there, and salute to those who've
done that, that what a great thing because I know
how much it costs to hire a lawyer. It ain't cheap, ever,
but setting up, for example, the appropriate corporate structure for
any given business.

Speaker 18 (01:53:16):
Oh, it's it's incredibly important. And that's one of those services.
As we were at a cohort in Washington, d C.
And we had two lawyers there that would have cost
a veteran for an hour. You know, we're talking about
thirteen hundred dollars an hour apiece. And these folks are
thrilled to come in and give veterans their services.

Speaker 5 (01:53:39):
You know what I was when I was in house
with Anthem, Blue Cross and Blue Shit. We're going back
nineteen years now because it's my nineteenth year in radio.
I remember the first time because I was in charge
of managing litigation that we had outsourced in certain times,
and I remember the first time I got a four
figure per hour a bill out of some New York
law firm and I soiled myself just looking at that
going I can't not believe how much money these guys cost.

(01:54:02):
But you just hit the nail on the head on
that one. So lawyers out there help out the disabled
American veterans with these programs. Now, you mentioned it's the
boot camp is starting today. So this I presume that
this is not an appeal for folks to sign up
for this particular boot camp. Do you do them throughout
the year.

Speaker 18 (01:54:20):
Dan, Yeah, absolutely, we're back in May and we you know,
this is a program it sources nationally, but we have
a handful of great local companies who are participating. We
have a Remodel It Right company, James Hannen, Air Force veteran,
is trying to help remodel homes here locally. We have
a branding company, Stephen Easley's Easily Blessed Media and they're

(01:54:45):
just helping companies get their branding down straight. We even
have a taekwondo company from Wilder representing the cohort. So
it's a fun group. They're a little bit spread out
in terms of the types of services the types of
products they offer, but they're veterans who we think are
going to be extremely successful down the road.

Speaker 5 (01:55:05):
All right, Well, speaking of extremely successful, Dan Claire, chief
Communications Officer for the da V, can you share maybe
a couple of success stories about the results of the
Patriot boot Camp some of the alumni success stories.

Speaker 18 (01:55:20):
Sure. I mean, one one that sticks out to me
is Alvin Allan Parvis. He's the CEO of Go Faster.
Alan's company that's here and since Cincinnati based company. He's
making running shoes that are kind of a hybrid trail
and walking shoe or a trail and street shoe. He's
an example of a company that's done great. We have

(01:55:41):
people with just amazing ideas, amazing solutions. One of the
one of the founders we had, had developed a reservoir
that collected water for to refill your windshield. So you know,
you've ever been in the rain and mud and you
run out of windshield wiper fluid and you're in big
trouble in your like, oh my god, it's raining outside.

(01:56:02):
But he had he'd developed the way that you could
take in rain water with a detergent and then clean
your windshields. And of course now cars are kind of
all over. It's just they're amazing ideas. You see with veterans,
they want to change the world. They want to be
involved in something that's meaningful, and that's what we see
with these entrepreneurs' new missions.

Speaker 5 (01:56:21):
How about that, it's one of the things you surprised
nobody ever thought of that before.

Speaker 1 (01:56:25):
So I guess are there and I have.

Speaker 5 (01:56:27):
I think I maybe seen a whole all of fifteen
or twenty minutes of shark Tank where you know, they
show off products and try to get executives to buy
into them or thumbs up and thumbs down kind of thing.
Are is there certain elements of that involved.

Speaker 18 (01:56:40):
Absolutely. We have a pitch contest that goes into every
cohort and it's very much dav Shark Tank without the
intellectual property theft. It's a great it's a great thing,
you know, and that follows up on the digital side.
So if you sign up to get information, we'll let
you know when that contest is going to be held.
We've had folks from this program compete in Shark Tank

(01:57:02):
and even win. So we're rolled with the types of companies.

Speaker 19 (01:57:06):
That we have.

Speaker 1 (01:57:07):
Wow, and it's over the course of how many days.

Speaker 18 (01:57:10):
It's three full days.

Speaker 5 (01:57:13):
We start off.

Speaker 18 (01:57:14):
This morning, we just had a bustload of people come
in and then this program also introduces veterans and entrepreneurs
to Northern Kentucky. We're supported by Meet Nky, Blue North.
I mean, just the business community in Northern Kentucky, Cincinnati,
and Indiana have just coalesced around this program. We couldn't
do it without them. They offer great advice and they're

(01:57:36):
doing this all out just because they know it's the
right thing.

Speaker 1 (01:57:39):
To do it is the right thing to do.

Speaker 5 (01:57:41):
It's like my support of the American veterans the right
thing to do for me, because you know it's worthy
to support them. Because it's just a quality group of people.
I mean, you already sung their praises and you can
only double down on that. I mean, I know there's
some outliers and some bad eggs out in the world,
but that's the case with literally everybody. But I don't
think you can find a better class of people than
those folks who have served their country and serve them

(01:58:03):
served proudly. And I'm glad this this program is out there.
When's the next boot camp?

Speaker 18 (01:58:09):
The next boot camp is coming up the first week
of May. You can sign on. You can actually visit
Patriot boot Camp dot org to get specifically into this program.
Always visit dav dot org for benefits, help for volunteerism,
for transportation, things like that. But this our next cohort
is May five through seven. Here locally, we want people

(01:58:30):
to sign up. We want mentors, we need mentors, we
need speakers, So we encourage everyone to get involved. Sign up,
we'll start sending you information and uh and we'll make
you part of our community.

Speaker 5 (01:58:40):
At the risk of having you repeat yourself. I just
want to make sure I understand you're looking for folks
who already have you know, their their their toes in
the water of business, have something to show for their
entrepreneurial direction, not just someone who's got a great idea
but it hasn't come to any measure of fruition.

Speaker 18 (01:58:57):
I got that right, Yeah, absolutely, looking for people who've
made a serious step because it's you know, this is
a program. It brings thousands of dollars worth of value,
and we want to make it make sure that our
mentors time is being dedicated to people who are going
to go out there and use it, you know, really
put it to work. And they're serious companies. They're serious people.

(01:59:17):
They're you know, veterans, are resilient people. They know how
to scale, they know discipline, they understand how to adjust
in changing environments. They're just great people. And this gives
them the opportunity. You know, just a lot of these guys,
when when most people were going to college or starting
their first business, they were serving their country. Now we're

(01:59:39):
able to just level the playing field a little bit
for them, give them some of those building blocks. So
they can go on and really conquer the world.

Speaker 1 (01:59:46):
Wow, what a great concept this is. And how long
have you been doing this?

Speaker 18 (01:59:51):
We've been doing this. This became a DV program. It
was a separate charity founded by civilians to help veterans
get into the tech center. We've had a DV it's
been a DV program for three years, but overall it's
been going on for about twelve years that the programs existed.
It started by you know, some very Governor Jared Polis
was one of the people who was one of the

(02:00:11):
original founders of the program. It's just it's an exceptional
community that Dav was able to inherit. When we brought
on Dav Patriot boot Camp.

Speaker 5 (02:00:19):
Well, it comes through loud and clear in your voice,
the enthusiasm you have and how proud you are of
this program and the work that you're doing for the
American veterans. So I'm I'm just pleased to sponge to
have you on the program to support it. Patriot Bootcamp
dot org for the information and I let's see here.
I know there was one more thing I wanted to
ask you. Oh, sometimes I have a brain bubble on

(02:00:40):
the morning show, sir and apologies for that.

Speaker 1 (02:00:43):
Oh yeah, I just it.

Speaker 5 (02:00:45):
Also, I mean, in addition to this, it sounds like
there could be a parallel sort of networking function among
the young entrepreneurs of the veteran entrepreneurs as well as
the mentors in the in the program.

Speaker 18 (02:00:56):
Oh it's huge. We've had Honey Baits, one of the
family members of Honey Baked Hams, has donated legal services,
his attorney, his retainer. He's donated that to help more
in the Northern area. Dton area entrepreneur with a company
called Whiskerman he's donated legal time. I mean, these the

(02:01:18):
people who get involved, they usually stay involved, stay in contact,
and they're ongoing mentors. And we need about forty to
fifty mentors if we have forty to fifty participants for
every cohort. So there are always opportunities to help. If
you have a skill you think you can bring to
the table, please volunteer, Please get involved. We'll make it
worth your time, all right.

Speaker 5 (02:01:38):
Now, for that group of people, those interested entrepreneurs that
have been there and done that want to help out,
do they go to Patriot Bootcamp dot org or do
they go to the dav dot org.

Speaker 18 (02:01:47):
Site Patriot boot Camp dot org is the fastest way.

Speaker 14 (02:01:50):
To get there.

Speaker 5 (02:01:51):
Fastest way to get there will be linked online blog
and podcast pages. My friend Jos directors edited already, so
click right there. If you can't remember Patriot Bootcamp dot org,
just remember fifty five KRC dot com. You know, Dan
on behalf of all of my listeners who all support
the American veteran Dan Claire. Thank you so much for
what you're doing with the DAV and keep up the
great work. And anytime you want to talk about something

(02:02:13):
going on with the DAV or remind folks about the
boot camp down the road, you got to welcome opportunity
here on the fifty five KRC Morning Show.

Speaker 18 (02:02:21):
Oh, Brian, thank you so much. Thank you Joe, and
thanks Todd for helping get this thing together. God bless
you guys, and.

Speaker 5 (02:02:27):
You sir, appreciate your time. Eight twenty right now fifty
five kr SE the talk station and a great time
to mention Cover Sinsey. My friends are cover Sincy to
help get you medical insurance, better coverage for less money.
I do a Sunday show with John Rohlman and we
talk about facets of medical insurance every Sunday at a

(02:02:47):
thirty and it's just it's absolutely fascinating, it's interesting, and
you think, listen to a half hour show on medical insurance,
absolutely you will learn so much and there's so much
to know, and the team that covers since John Rowman
and the team know literally everything there is to know,
and they are your people, your people specifically when you

(02:03:07):
are working with them, and it doesn't cost you anything
at all to work with them. Now, of course you're
going to be purchasing insurance policies from them, but it's
a different way of doing medical insurance because they have
access to hundreds of insurance companies, thousands of different policies.
But because they are literally in your corner, they pick
and choose which policies and coverage are the best for
your situation. You know, they can save you heaploads of money,

(02:03:30):
get you better college coverage, dollar one coverage. They know
where the real problems are when it comes to medical care.
You know, like anticipating that unexpected hospital visit. You know
what might be in store for you if you're not
properly insured. Cover since he does, and they'll explain it
to you and ultimately you can save a heapload of
money while getting better medical coverage and covering for those

(02:03:53):
contingencies to reach out to them.

Speaker 1 (02:03:56):
There is no obligation.

Speaker 5 (02:03:57):
You just give them information and then they will work
on preparing something that's exactly right for your needs. Two
ways to do that coversincy dot com. There's a form
there you can fill out, and it strongly encourage you
to fill out as much information as you can. It
speeds the process along, but they'll reach out to you
very quickly and get back with you. Or you can
call them directly at eight hundred call that's five one three,

Giants fan. Pretty sure we know who the judge is
rooting for in the big Game. It's time to talk
to the newest Chiefs and swifty fan. In fact, he's
going for his own three p nachos, nachos and not

(02:05:49):
you were way ahead of me. The Judge's next Chuck
ing ramon fifty five krs the talk station, what are
you gonna do?

Speaker 2 (02:06:04):
Good morning, Good morning, Judge of the Polton.

Speaker 7 (02:06:07):
Unique Introductions I get anywhere, I.

Speaker 6 (02:06:10):
Know, I listen.

Speaker 5 (02:06:12):
I couldn't say that definitively, because I know you're introduced
every single day on multiple platforms everywhere around the country
and the globe. But I would have been able to
easily guess that his are the most interesting and unique introductions.

Speaker 1 (02:06:26):
How could they not be? No one ever KNOWSQUI what's
on Chuck's mind? Does he have it right? Though you
can be rooting for the Chiefs, No, he does not.

Speaker 15 (02:06:33):
I am a fan of Saquon Barkley, who I think
is the greatest running back in the business, and if
he has a few more years like this past one,
he'll be the greatest running back in history. And the
Giants need to learn their lesson about the stupidity of
letting him go over a lousy million dollars a year.

Speaker 5 (02:06:50):
Is that a chip I see on your shoulder, Judge
the Polton, It is a big chip.

Speaker 15 (02:06:55):
They paid Danny Gimes forty million years, the worst quarterback
in the business, and they like one Barkley go the
best running back in the business.

Speaker 1 (02:07:03):
Well, I'm on your side. I'm on your side, so
we will share.

Speaker 15 (02:07:08):
Any of this have to do with Patrick Mahomes who
might be the best athlete on the planet.

Speaker 1 (02:07:15):
Right, Well, and let us use that as a pivot.

Speaker 5 (02:07:19):
Not much of a relatable pivot to pivot over to
your column, is that tariffs in the Constitution. I'm so
glad that you chose to deal with the concept of tariffs,
but it's a rather esoteric area of the law. And
even in my retort to you, my response to you,
I wasn't aware of the case that the Supreme Court
has allowed this to happen. But it is an easy

(02:07:41):
question to ask for anybody. How is it that Trump
can just flip a switch and tariff a country literally
almost in any amount he wants.

Speaker 19 (02:07:52):
It?

Speaker 1 (02:07:52):
Just it seems like it's after.

Speaker 15 (02:07:54):
Years ago, at the height of the depression and the
cusp of World War Two, the Congress decided to give
that power to Franklin Delana Roosevelt, and it has resided
in every president since. Notwithstanding a constitution couldn't be clearer.
All taxes shall be raised by legislation enacted by the Congress,

(02:08:19):
and all legislation for imposing taxes shall originate in the.

Speaker 7 (02:08:24):
House of Representatives. Couldn't possibly be clearer.

Speaker 15 (02:08:26):
You have this one tax, a tariff which can be ruinous,
can be imposed by the president and the president alone.

Speaker 5 (02:08:38):
And yet the Constitution does not address specifically tariffs residing
in the executive branch. So by what circuitous route does
the president end up with the power to just sort
of one day turn and say, Hey, I'm going to
tax Canada twenty five percent.

Speaker 15 (02:08:53):
So the decision is called United States versus Curtis Right.
Curtis Right was the name of an arms manufacturer who
sold arms to Bolivia, and the Congress had authorized a
FDR to embargoes on arms at his own choosing. He

(02:09:13):
can impose an embargo one day and unimpose it the next.
And when he imposed the arms embargo on Bolivia and
Curtis Wright sold it anyway, the FEDS indicted the corporation.
The federal judge throughout the indictment by saying that the
president can't decide what's legal and what's not. The President

(02:09:35):
can't create a crime, only Congress can. The Supreme Court
reversed it. Now, if the Supreme Court had simply reversed
it and said hold a trial, we wouldn't have known
about any of this. But the reversal was written by
Justice George Sutherland born in Great Britain, which is.

Speaker 7 (02:09:52):
Part of this story.

Speaker 15 (02:09:54):
He wrote a treatise on presidential power, going well beyond
the issues before the Court, and in that treatise, in
the guise of a judicial opinion us versus Curtis right,
he declares that the president and the president alone establishes

(02:10:15):
foreign policy, and he needs tools to effectuate that establishment.

Speaker 7 (02:10:20):
And among those tools are.

Speaker 15 (02:10:22):
Deciding what's criminal when it violates his foreign policy, and
imposing tariffs in order to effectuate the foreign policy.

Speaker 7 (02:10:33):
None of this was before the court, or most of
it wasn't before the court.

Speaker 15 (02:10:37):
But it's in the opinion anyway. The opinion has never
been touched as absurd as it is because the federal
government is one of limited powers. But just as Sutherland wrote,
this is actually in the opinion, Brian that in seventeen
eighty nine, when the Constitution was ratified, the power of

(02:10:59):
foreign government, of dealing with foreign governments magically came across
the Atlantic Ocean from George the Third to George Washington,
and has been reposed in the hands of every president
ever since.

Speaker 1 (02:11:12):
So we relate is still good law.

Speaker 15 (02:11:14):
As irrational as it is, and every president from FDR
to Donald Trump has used that opinion as legal authority
for the imposition of everything from embargos to tariffs.

Speaker 5 (02:11:26):
So, in so far as Curtis Right was concerned, it
was selling arms to Bolivia in spite of the ban
on that did that happen.

Speaker 15 (02:11:33):
But the ban was not a congressional ban. The ban
was a presidential ban, and so Curtis Wright argued that
Congress did not have the power to delegate that power
to the president.

Speaker 7 (02:11:47):
If Congress had.

Speaker 15 (02:11:48):
Said, thou shalt not sell arms to Bolivia, and if
you do, it's a felony, that would have been one thing.
But when Congress said thou shalt not do what FDR's
you from doing it. If you do, it's a felony
that violates the principle of non delegation.

Speaker 7 (02:12:05):
So Supreme Court rejected that argument.

Speaker 5 (02:12:07):
But within that that declaration, FDR was able to say, no,
don't sell the arms. He also he made it a
crime to violate his declaration that they won't be sold
or did it just was it just a band that
didn't carry with it a criminal component.

Speaker 1 (02:12:23):
That's what I wanted to kind of be clear on.
He made it a crime, oh, which.

Speaker 7 (02:12:28):
Is why it was scandalous.

Speaker 15 (02:12:30):
It will be one thing to impose some administrative sanction
on this company, quite another thing to indict them for
a crime that was never enacted by the Congress. This
violates all the due process jurisprudence about notice and about
the legitimacy of federal crimes, which can only be made

(02:12:51):
valid by action of the Congress, not by action of
the president. Now, Joe Biden has imposed sanctions and Donald
Trump has not unimposed them on many, many Russian facilities.
I mean what Trump said the other day, I'm going
to impost sanctions on the Russians. Well, Biden has sanctioned

(02:13:12):
everything the Russians sell us except for one thing which
we desperately need, which is uranium.

Speaker 7 (02:13:18):
I don't even know if the President knew it.

Speaker 15 (02:13:22):
I also don't know, it's a long winded answer to
your question if it is a crime, a felony to
violate those sanctions. There's about a couple of million dollars
worth of still itch Naya vodka still sitting in Port Newark.
It came across the Atlantic Ocean while Biden imposed the sanctions.

Speaker 7 (02:13:45):
It's still sitting in a warehouse in New Jersey. I
don't know who owns it. I don't know what's going
to become of it. But if you sold it, could
you be arrested.

Speaker 5 (02:13:54):
I don't know the answer to that, but the idea
though that I mean, I'll just say it out on
a whim. The president can do that and also in
doing so, create a crime without congressional approval, which is
where that power lies. I understand why you're in such
a state of disbelief that this law actually is still

(02:14:14):
on the books, and the fact that it derived from
from British law.

Speaker 1 (02:14:18):
They don't have a constitution with separation of powers.

Speaker 7 (02:14:22):
Correct Correct.

Speaker 15 (02:14:23):
Justice to Southerland, who you know, came to the US
as a baby, was a senator from one of the
western states I forget, which, but nevertheless had the mindset
that the president was a monarch and the Congress was
like parliament, which is unlimited.

Speaker 7 (02:14:39):
Parliament can legislate on anything from spinning on the sidewalk
to treason.

Speaker 15 (02:14:43):
Congress theoretically cannot legislate on spinning on the sidewalk, although
that legislator and I'm just about everything else. That's another
story for another time. But in Justice Sutherland's mind and
seven of the of the remaining eight justices.

Speaker 7 (02:15:00):
Agreed with him. Mc reynalds dissented.

Speaker 15 (02:15:04):
The president is entitled to monarchical powers with respect to
foreign affairs because when we became a sovereign country, these
powers devolved on him.

Speaker 7 (02:15:15):
When they were taken away from George the Third. I mean,
this is absurd.

Speaker 15 (02:15:19):
Madison and Company would have rejected that unambinuously had it
been articulated in seventeen eighty nine.

Speaker 1 (02:15:26):
Yeah, there's no question in my mind. You got that right.
Oh lord, well, I can't thank you. I me again.

Speaker 7 (02:15:32):
I said to be a little bit in the weeds.

Speaker 15 (02:15:35):
But no, everybody's asking how can the president impose a tax?

Speaker 7 (02:15:39):
Well, this is how.

Speaker 15 (02:15:40):
This is how power devolves in America from stupid, outdated,
irrational Supreme Court opinions.

Speaker 5 (02:15:49):
Yeah, and I want to address that. Always makes me
want to bring up the commerce clause.

Speaker 7 (02:15:58):
I know, I know, I'd talk about Patrick Mahomes.

I love food. I grew up in the kitchen. I
love to cook. I like make my own meatballs. They
don't touch these. Trust me, thank you so much. I
have really high expectations and standards. You've exceeded them. Man,
these are great. Are you gonna be serving these at
the Marty Graus event?

Speaker 16 (02:18:31):
Absolutely? I have you serving those at the Marty Gras
e Vents, and I hope everybody enjoys them as much
as you have. It being perfect even for me at.

Speaker 5 (02:18:38):
Least, peg Gordy. You guys had some of his meatballs yet?
Oh yeah, okay, yeah good. I better get out there
and get another one before they disappear. Food has a
way of just evaporating around the studios here, all right.
The website is what is it Marty Gras twenty or
twenty twenty five dot or do I got.

Speaker 1 (02:18:55):
To have that right?

Speaker 12 (02:18:55):
He did?

Speaker 5 (02:18:56):
Marty gra twenty twenty five dot org Brian, that's right now.
It's benefiting homeless children. Let's talk about the ways in
which this event will benefit homeless children. We'll talk about
sponsors and what we're going to see and do there and.

Speaker 1 (02:19:08):
Also the date.

Speaker 5 (02:19:10):
So who wants to cover the how the benefit proceeds work?
Because you guys have been adapt this for this is
the thirty fourth year for this right. Peg is from
Bethany House. Go ahead, pe peg.

Speaker 19 (02:19:19):
There's three organizations that serve homeless families in our region,
Bright and Center, Welcome House, and Bethany House, and we
use the proceeds we have a great party for a
really good cause. We feed the children that we serve
in these families with the proceeds, so it helps us
feed children all year. Often families are homeless for almost

(02:19:43):
a year before they get to shelter. On any given day,
Bethany House has one hundred kids living in our emergency
shelter trying to find a way. Their parents are finding
a way to get rehoused, So we use this money
to feed them.

Speaker 4 (02:19:57):
Well.

Speaker 5 (02:19:58):
And I really appreciate you being here, And I'm aware
of this homeless problem because I've talked to folks like
beth in the House over the years. Explain to my
listeners who might be in a state of disbelief that
there are really homeless children out there, because I think
quite often people think of the homeless person as you know,
the vagrant sort of in a corner in an alleyway,
probably drug addicted or maybe suffering from some cognitive struggles

(02:20:21):
or psychological problems. But that's not the case we're usually
talking about here, though, is it right.

Speaker 19 (02:20:26):
Family homelessness is really a hidden problem because parents will,
as we know, parents will do anything to keep their
kids safe, and so they'll find a stairwell in an
apartment house where they can limb under, maybe a storage unit,
a shelter at a state park or city park. They'll

(02:20:49):
find lots of places where they can sleep and coexist
with whatever else is going on in the area, and
their kids'll be safe well.

Speaker 1 (02:21:00):
And from my understanding, correct me if I'm wrong.

Speaker 5 (02:21:02):
Quite often this is almost like a spur of the
moment homelessness because they live in a dangerous situation at home.
Maybe they're an abusive relationship type situation. Mom grabs a
jam bag, grabs the kids and just heads out, really
maybe with no destination.

Speaker 19 (02:21:16):
A lot of our parents are escaping abusive relationships. Many
are just can't afford the rent anymore. And if you
have a high medical bill that you didn't have insurance for,
or a car repair and you had to get the
car fixed so that you could get to your job,
you might not have enough money for the rent. And then,

(02:21:38):
and of course in our area, rent has exponentially increased
since COVID.

Speaker 5 (02:21:44):
Now do you put these families, these children, and these
mothers in touch with organizations and might be able to
help them out to deal with those challenges. I immediately
think of the Help Squad over on the West Side,
because sometimes women will come to them and like they
can't make that rent, pain that they need that one
month assistance, or they're going to find themselves in this situation.
Help squad vets them and we'll get them the money. Yeah, here,

(02:22:08):
we're helping you out this month. Or in one case,
they actually bought this poor woman who had to drive
be on a bus three hours a day to get
to her job.

Speaker 1 (02:22:15):
They got her a car.

Speaker 4 (02:22:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 19 (02:22:17):
It's incredible, you know, because if you have to get
your kids to day care or to school and then
get to your job, that could be a three hour
bus ride, yes, ma'am.

Speaker 2 (02:22:26):
So there's lots of.

Speaker 19 (02:22:27):
Organizations, Saint Vincent to Paul community action agencies. Each of
the three agencies I mentioned Bethany House included we raise
funds so we can provide a little bit of financial
assistance to help smooth those barriers.

Speaker 1 (02:22:45):
All right.

Speaker 5 (02:22:45):
And one of the ways you raise funds and it's
been wildly successful thirty fourth annual Culinary Celebration. It's the
Marti grav benefiting the homeless. I'll turn to you, Gordy,
founding chairman, been at this a long time. Let my
listeners know how much money you've put together together with
this event over the years.

Speaker 17 (02:23:01):
Well, so far we've raised two point seven to three
Brian two point three seven three million dollars. That's amazing
and we're hoping to raise about two hundred thousand this year.
So that's our goal this year. We'll see see if
we can get everybody there that night to help us
raise some money. We have a silent auction, a live auction,
and just a really big party for everybody to come, a.

Speaker 1 (02:23:20):
Great celebratory event. What day is? What day is it?

Speaker 5 (02:23:23):
We'll learn about the details on it, the where, the when,
the why, the house.

Speaker 1 (02:23:26):
So what when is the date? We need to mark
down on our calendar.

Speaker 17 (02:23:29):
So it's Tuesday, February eighteenth, it's early this year. Normally
Fat Tuesday is March fourth this year, but we we
didn't get the spacebook at the convention Center because of
Cincinnati shutting down and Cincinnati Convention Center took all the
space at Northern Kentucky. So anyway, we had to move
it up a little bit, so it's two weeks earlier,
February eighteenth. We'll call it Tasty Tuesday this year. So

(02:23:52):
at any rate, it's it's going to be five thirty
to ten o'clock at the Northern Kentucky Convention Center. This year,
we've got free parking right across the street in the
Kenton County.

Speaker 1 (02:24:01):
Well that's an improvement.

Speaker 17 (02:24:02):
So yeah, yeah, Well, you know, it was a tough.
It was tough for everybody to when they wanted to
come to the event to find a place to park.
So this year we just bought out the garage. Oh
that's great, and so now get people get free parking.
It's right across the street.

Speaker 5 (02:24:13):
So you mentioned silent auction, and I imagine you have
all kinds of sponsors that donated items for the silent auction.
Oh yeah, yeah, all times one of these events without
people being generous and a live auction too, Brian, Oh yeah,
give me an example of one of the.

Speaker 17 (02:24:27):
Well, we have we have Reds opening day packages, we
have a Caribbean cruise, we got everybody loves a slush
puppy machine that give away for so it's Yeah, we've
got all kinds of We've got a h a cable
deep deep sea fishing trip this year, so that's going.

Speaker 1 (02:24:47):
To be neat. Yeah, I want the slush Puppy machine.
You went to Slush.

Speaker 4 (02:24:53):
Show.

Speaker 17 (02:24:53):
Yeah, And we've got fifty four restaurants and beverage preveyers
this year. We've got a great entertainment from DV eight
this year. They're brand new too.

Speaker 5 (02:25:02):
So they're they're a very popular group there now. Now, Jimmy,
general manager of Governor's House, You're you're gonna be serving
these meatballs. So I'm be doubly sure of that. Yeah,
because if you have all those food vendors there, I'm
just gonna wonder how people are gonna find room because
everybody's gonna be gathering around Jimmy's meatball.

Speaker 16 (02:25:19):
That's exactly what happened last year when I did that.
I bet our booth was packed and everybody else, you know.

Speaker 5 (02:25:24):
Nobody give you some examples of some of the other
restaurants that are gonna be serving.

Speaker 16 (02:25:29):
Well, then there's Blinkers will be there, which is right
next door to us in the Covington area. They'll be
serving food as well. I'm not sure exactly what they'll
be serving, but I've seen with some of the other Yeah.

Speaker 17 (02:25:39):
Well, actually Blinkers is serving at Port Tenor with the
with the bourbon glaze. Yeah, you've got City Barbecue there
with their their famous beef brisket notch. We've got eighteen
at the Reticent serving lobster mac and cheese. We've got
of course Governor's House. They're with their meatballs. We've got
the Hooters girls will be there with their with their

goes on and on, Brien.

Speaker 5 (02:26:17):

alcohol vendors too, that they'll be there. Well, you know
that was gonna be my next question. Adult beverages of course.

Speaker 17 (02:26:29):
Margarita's wine, beer, all kinds of stuff.

Speaker 19 (02:26:32):
Last year I got to reminisce with some Little Kings.
Little Kings that takes me back, Yes, it does.

Speaker 17 (02:26:40):
There's so much food and beverages here. If you can't
have a good time here, you can't have a good
time anywhere.

Speaker 5 (02:26:45):
You've got everything covered, great food, great beverages, you got
great music, entertainment, the live auction and the big uh
uh and the silent auctions as well, and it all
benefits the wonderful services Beth in the House provides each
and every day. Services we really really wish and pray
weren't necessary, and you know there's always it's sort of
the pall that's cast over this wonderful event is that

(02:27:07):
you do need the funds because there are homeless out
there that children most notably need these services. So thanks
for what you're doing at Beth in the House. It's wonderful.
PEG So tickets are available at the website I just mentioned,
it's Marty Graw twenty five dot org. Can I ask
out loud how much you take the costs? Well, the

(02:27:28):
tickets are as little as one hundred dollars. That includes
everything including parking this year, there's all kinds of different
levels that you can buy. Sure and we also need sponsors,
so they want to learn more how to be a sponsor,
corporate sponsor, or, A table sponsor. Go out to Marty
Gras twenty twenty five dot org well Man a salute
to the sponsors. I'm looking into the web page Wiler
Family Foundation in Mercedes Benz of Fort Mitchell and with

do not happen and the money doesn't get raised. Well,
you certainly got my attention. Gordye peg Jimmy again, Jimmy
