Five O five fifty five k rC the talk station every Wednesday, say

(00:25):
education, I'm the dude man,Well you may be. I'm Brian Thomas
is to the fifty five car SeMorning Show, and I wish you a
very happy Wednesday. Good day tobe tuned in, of course, Jode
Jennen of Paulitano American Caesar and constitutionalindifference just basically about how you know,
leaders in the for the sake ofexpedience being able to do something and getting

(00:46):
something done right away rather than waitfor the legislative process, violate the Constitution.
And there is a long list Republicansand Democrats all included in the list
of folks that just ignore the Constitutionfor the sake of whatever the moment in
time, if they think demands ignoringthe Constitution should be a good conversation,
as I think it always is withJudge Annapolitano. Preceded by are you ready

(01:10):
Sharon Coolidge? Since I choir rememberhow the city budget looks dire and we
kept hearing about that. Well,notwithstanding those predictions and those concerns, I
have to have purval mayor proposal inhis budget. He wants an eight percent
increase to the general Fund. Okay, remember when my dad was a kid,

(01:32):
he said he wanted a pony.His dad said, no, We
got that one on SoundBite somewhere.Anyway, we got dress Tracker Special Wednesday
with Christopher Smith Aman at seven thirty. I'll really get that Monday Morning Smith
event. But since we did abest of or right of the Joe behind

(01:53):
the board did the best of sincein honor of Memorial Day, got the
day off thanks to I heard mediadeclaring that a holiday and not eradicating it.
So we're gonna hear from Christopher today, which I think is always a
good thing. Enjoy what the formervice mayor of the City of Cincinnati has
to say. Always enjoy what youhave to say as well. Five three,

(02:13):
eight hundred and eighty two to threetaco with pound five fifty on AT
and T phones, and I've gota jaundice. I have suspicion, which
I usually do for all things atall times, about this whole problem with
the Democrats getting Joe Biden on theballot here in Ohio, because through their
own actions or inactions, as thecase may be, they schedule their convention

(02:36):
after the deadline. We've talked aboutthis many times, just talked about it
the other day, talked about itwith Secretary of State. Read his op
ed piece, say listen, it'snot my fault. The law says what
the law says. And you know, Mike DeWine, apparently really anxious to
get Joe Biden on the ballot,called for a special legislative session yesterday where
the Senate did pass its version gettingBiden on the ballot, but also banning

(02:58):
foreign money country abutions that's a criticalpoint here. But in advance of that,
this is rather interesting where my Johnof my jaded and cynical jouniceed I
suspicion is raised. The Democrats havedecided they're going to formally nominate Joe Biden
through a virtual role call a headof the convention in Chicago, which is

(03:23):
taking place in August nineteenth and throughthe twenty second. Didn't planned for a
long time, been talking about itfor a long time because we kept thinking,
I kept thinking, the world keptthinking that this is going to be
repaying the nineteen sixty eight Democratic NationalConvention in Chicago, where well protesters pretty
much ruined it for everybody on theDemocrat Party and an impressive showing of force

(03:46):
by the Chicago Police Department during thenineteen sixty eight convention. You draw your
own conclusions about the use of billyclubs. But whatever the outcome, it
was a disaster for the Democrats.Didn't make them look good, and it
was chaos in the streets. Kindof expected maybe that might happen. He
got the whole pro Palestinian pro Homasgroups screaming and all about the Democrats and

(04:08):
the relationship with Israel, and onand on and on. You know,
there's a multitude of factions out therethat might have showed up. Well,
if they've already nominated Biden Harris ticket, if they've already confirmed that in advance
of the convention, what's the pointof the convention? There isn't one.
Now, it'll still take place,It'll be symbolic. It be an opportunity

(04:29):
for the Democrats to fly to Chicagowith they're already purchased airfare or fly in
in a private jet, as thecase may be, and do a little
song and dance and talk about theirplatform and try to boost people's morale and
get them ginned up for the Novemberelection. But they're not going to be
there to select who's going to bepresident virtual proceedings. This new procedure,

(04:55):
this new idea would allow Biden andKamala Harris to get the parties formal nod
and be similar to the process usedin twenty twenty. Of course, during
COVID nineteen they did a virtual conventionback then, a fun fact that I
had since forgotten. But of courseit sets a precedent that this can be
done, so they can point backwardsand say, oh, we've done this

(05:16):
before. This is no big deal. Remember COVID, we had to do
it virtually. Maybe true, butnot in advance of the convention. Was
a virtual convention, and they didit on the day of the declared convention
for my recollection. Now, thisalso reduces the chances of an unscripted moment
during the parties highly produced Chicago conventionthat could embarrass Biden reporting a newsmax.

(05:43):
Thank you Sewing Me and Kim andBruce Shibkowski for pointing out what I'm talking
about. He says, discontent fromsome activist members of his party over his
support for Israel's war against some Austingaza and this would all be on live
television. These protesters in the streets, probably taking away the focus from the
conventions antics and activities to the moreinteresting protests and rioting going on outside the

(06:09):
convention. They don't have to worryabout that now, or the bubble has
been burst for a lot of theseactivists who thought perhaps they might have some
influence over what Democrats do at theconvention. Bernie Sanders supporters during his efforts
to get the nomination didn't have anyinfluence over the party elites in the back

(06:29):
room, who told Bernie, inspite of the fact that he probably had
a majority of the votes, itwasn't his night. I remember that like
it was yesterday. Democratic National Committeeyesterday did not say when this virtual roll
call is going to be taking place, but it's expected in the weeks after
the Committee's Rules and Bylaws committee votesto propose changes to the roll call process.
I guess they have to go throughsome formality that committee vote schedule for

(06:54):
June fourth, which gives them plentyof time to do this virtual nomination and
secure Joe Biden's name on the ballot. Jamie Harrison, Democratic National Committee chairman
had this to say, quote,Joe Biden will be on the ballot in
Ohio and in all fifty states,and Ohio Republicans agree. I don't know

(07:14):
who he was talking to, butno one in the Ohio Republican Party can
stop the Democrats from doing whatever itis the Democrats want to do along these
lines, as long as it's withintheir roles. You're right, Democratic Republicans
won't have any say. I'm notsure they agree, but whatever. Moving
on to his statement. But whenthe time has come for action, they
have failed to act every time,those evil Republicans refusing to help out Democrats.

(07:41):
Gee, and all the time,the Democrats keep helping out the Republicans
at every turn. You remember allthose times, right, Democrats bending over
backwards to accommodate Republicans. Yeah,if you have a single issue that they
actually did that, I'd love tohear from you. You can just give
me a call and let me knowwhich one I'm overlooking, because sarcasm in
my voice is quite obvious anyway.So Democrats will land this plane on our

(08:05):
own. Go ahead, Jane,that's fine. Through a virtual roll call,
he went on to say, wewill ensure that Republicans can't chip away
at our democracy through incompetence or partisantricks and that Ohioans can exercise their right
to vote for the presidential candidate oftheir choice. What the ever loving hell

(08:28):
is he talking about? Is thisa statement for the uninformed masses to somehow
suggest that it's the Republican's fault thatthe convention was declared after the deadline in
Ohio to put the any given candidateon the ballot. Is this to suggest,
perhaps the statement to uninformed voters whodon't realize that that deadline was enacted

(08:50):
under a Democrat administration here in thestate of Ohio fifteen years ago, and
that they were well aware of thedeadline in advance of their schedule in the
convention after the deadline. It justblows my mind that they have just the
stupidity of this statement within the contextof the facts. But whatever now they

(09:15):
keep bringing up they collectively the mainstreammedia everybody else, that this has been
done, this extension, this requirement. This deadline has been extended twice,
but in both cases it was toaccommodate both parties who scheduled their convention,
I suppose after the deadline for reasonsunknown to me, but history demonstrates that
it was done for both parties.Because both parties conventions were held after the

(09:39):
deadline, no one would have beenon the ballot in Ohio based upon the
law that's on the books now.Notwithstanding that, they did move forward with
what the Wine was pushing, whichwas the special legislative session and the Ohio
Center Republicans did pass the bill yesterdaythat will allow Biden to appear on the
general election ballot in November. Butalso it includes the bar on foreign contributions

(10:05):
to ballot issue campaigns, and ofcourse they were pushing that in response to
the issue one campaign last year thatconstitutionally protects now abortion in this state,
an issue that was pushed very hardand funded very largely by some Swiss guy
six point thirty fund, because it'salready illegal for four nationals to give money

(10:28):
to how candidates or contribute to federal, state, or local elections. In
spite of that, though, Republicanshere flow to this legislation as a consequence
of progressive dark money groups supporting theabortion rights amendment last year. So that's
what's included in this, you know, accommodation to Joe Biden get him on

(10:48):
the ballot. That group sixteen thirtyfund received contributions from a Swiss billionaire and
give predative Bill Sites represented Bill Sites, or say what you want about Bill
Yeah, this to say just becauseit's him today, This Swiss guy,
some Swiss guy, he said.It could be Chairman Ge tomorrow coming out

(11:11):
of China, could be Vladimir Putinspending money to defeat Joe Biden and get
his friend Trump elected. Could beanybody. The world is a dangerous place.
There's a lot of bad people outthere. He said. The bill
would reinforce federal law and codify thetwenty twenty one while Elections Commission's opinion prohibiting
foreign citizens from giving two ballot campaigns. You know, the citizen directed efforts

(11:33):
like, for example, legalization ofmarijuana. That was a grassroots citizens bill
kind of thing. Democrats criticize Republicansfor linking the legislation to this Biden issue
being on the ballot, calling ita poison pill, and they rejected it
out of hand yesterday in spite ofthe fact the Senate passed it anyway.
Question remains whether the House, theState House will will pass it as well.

(11:56):
Dwine wants a legislative's fix. Hedoesn't want to rely on this virtual
ballot, and even issue to statementto that effect said, well, I
understand the Democratic National Committee has justtoday proposed to work around to help get
President Biden on the Ohio ballot.It is prudent legislation be passed to get
this done. As I previously said, we do not want to leave something
so basic as having the sitting presidentof the United States on the ballot to

(12:20):
others when this can and should bedone legislatively. It's the right thing to
do now. I really don't understandDwin's wanting to bend over backwards for Biden.
I think it would have been prudentfor him to say, look,
we're going to use this total screwup on the part of the Democrats.
They're fair to pay attention to statelaws. We're not going to accommodate them

(12:41):
outright without getting something in return.What we're getting in return now is a
ban on Swedes and anybody else forthat matter, out there foreign nationals from
funding ballot and issues in Ohio.This is the price you idiots pay for
not paying attention to state law,Thank you very much. What's wrong with
that? Never gonna hear something likethat out of Mike Dwaine, though,

(13:03):

(14:52):
check out the podcast. When youcan't listen Livehouse State Representative Jennifer Gross will
Biden be on the bio. Thatwas the topic of conversation yesterday with her
and apparently he's going to be throughthe Democrats of virtual convention, or maybe
the Senate bill that passed yesterday willalso pass the House and we will ban
foreign money from these ballot initiatives andalso accommodate the Democrats for their in stupid

(15:13):
failures. Anyway, that was agood conversation. Also, John Carney,
a financial guy from Insights breit Bertnews on inflation and got some bad news
on that, most notably in connectionwith high beef prices, which don't hold
your breath waiting for those to godown. And this I just from the
Wiki League's task force file. Whatthe hell is with people? What the

(15:37):
hell are you talking about? Thomas? Excuse me, utilize the cough button.
If heroin wasn't bad enough, fednylstepped in right now, We're going
to add to the mix meditomidine becausefentanyl just wasn't toxic enough. If it

(16:03):
didn't get you high enough, goto this new drug, powerful new drug
apparently blaming being blamed for a spikeand overdoses in Chicago. Shocking. No
one overdoses happened between May eleven andMay fourteen. Drug samples from the case
those cases testing positive for high levelsof this metadaptomidine, which is described as

(16:26):
or is defined as a veterinary tranquilizernot approved for human use. User ining
justice drug will reflect symptoms as heightenedsedation and profound bradycardia, which is a
slow heartbeat, which gives the userthe appearance of a zombified state, which

(16:48):
is exactly what you want right thisdrug often I love this. This is
where it is like I'm scratching myhead, going what the hell is wrong
with people? They say that thisdrug is cut with other drugs like fentanyl,
because when blended with oploids, itincreases the sedative effects of the drug,

(17:08):
giving users and dealers the perception ofa stronger and more appealing product.
I mean, a couple of grainsof fentanyl will kill a human being,
just not strong enough. New sedativessaid to be two hundred times more powerful

(17:30):
than xylazine, which also gives asimilar experience to opioids. And yet both
of these this new one, wellnewly on the streets. I guess it's
not an opiate, and neither isxylazine. And they do not respond to
an oloxone or Narcan you know theshot that brings you out of an opioid
induced a coma or death. Idon't understand, really don't. I mean,

(18:00):
obviously this is a reflection of justan absolutely horrific, serious drug addiction
problem. You think about it,it's been going on since you know,
I mean heroin and overdose is aheroin and how how heavy is the mix
a heroin and you throw in fentanyl? This is some joker mixing fentanyl into
the heroin supply like that's going tobe evenly mixed. Then you see people

(18:23):
dying across this country of ours overdosingon something. Then they start mixing fentanyl
with every other form of fake tablets, so the you know, xanax or
whatever you're buying on the street containsfentanyl which can then kill you. This
adds the equation, And think aboutit, addiction so bad that you're willing

(18:48):
to play that kind of Russian roulettewith your life, that you know every
time you go out and buy anyof these types of drugs that the risk
of death is significant, And nowyou're out searching for something even stronger.

additional details again Fox nineteen. SaintBernardo Police they said they're searching for a

(23:40):
suspect who led them on a chaseand a stolen vehicle before crashing into a
fence and running off the road.And the weird thing is this isn't the
first time the victim's silver Kia optimhas been stolen. So yesterday morning,
three thirty in the morning morning morning, Amber Watkins Kia stolen. It was
parked at her residence on a sidestreet to East Mitchell Avenue. Watkins recalled

(24:03):
after running to her window to checkthe noise that she just heard I seen

Please spotted at ten minutes later threeforty am and North Avenue at Renning Road

her car was stolen and totaled.I love how the story ends.
She says her next vehicle will notbe a Kia five thirty six fifty five
car see the talk station got stackof stupid coming up? First word for

(25:56):
cover Since the outstanding folks that coverSincy, their job is to save you
a whole lot of money while atthe same time getting you better medical insurance
coverage, which seems like impossible.I know, I mean, how many
years have I've been insured through theemployer? And I know what's paid and
I know it's a lot of money, And I know you got a lot
of out of pocket responsibility before theinsurance kicks in. Then you got those

(26:19):
pesky deductibles, copays and everything elsethat goes along with it, and that
sometimes has so much money that upfrontout of pocket liability that people won't even
buy medical insurance. They go completelyunexposed for those folks, for folks that
are just living on Obamacare. Ifyou don't like what your employer coverage is
providing you, how about paying lessand getting more dollar one coverage included.

(26:41):
And that's what John Roman and theteam that covers Sincity are all about.
He's a medical insurance broker who willbe working for you. He works with
hundreds of insurance companies and has thousandsof healthcare plans at his disposal, allowing
to customize a plan that will bemultiple policies covering different avenues of your coverage,
you know, the regular checkups.For example, that might be one

(27:03):
policy covering dollars one coverage and thencatastrophic coverage. You get it all,
and you get it for less.So that's why I say it's worth a
phone call, because you know he'sbeen saving couples under age sixty five,
five hundred, one thousand dollars amonth with better coverage. Just an illustration
what he's capable of doing. Andyou get to keep John on the team
after you get medically insured through them, they'll do all your claims handling problems.

(27:25):
So if you get an EOB ordenied a claim, you got a
problem, you're curious, you don'tunderstand, you just call John and the
team will take care of the problemsfor you. It's a wonderful benefit that
goes along with working with him,and it costs you nothing but a little
bit of time to start this conversationfive one three eight hundred two two five

Wednesday, Zacher, Stupid San Diegopolice officer resigned after being caught locked in

(29:04):
the backseat of his squad car witha female detainee who propositioned him for sex
last year. This after newly releasedbodycam footage. Officer Anthony Hare left his
post about a month after the probewas launched into the August twenty three incident,
and I know the probe was launchedone day before he was to meet

(29:29):
with investigators for his second scheduled interview. Hair, who had been with the
police department for a couple of years, found himself in the vehicle with a
female suspect after he arrested her onsuspicion of stealing a stolen car outside a
convenience Star. Suspect not named oneof two people wonder for car theF She
also had a bench worn out forarrest. After Hair arrested her, he
was supposed to bring her to thepolice headquarters and later to the Lasculeanis Detention

(29:56):
Center for questioning, and bodycam footagereleased by the police department, suspect was
heard propositioning the officer for sex afterasking him if he was married. Quote,
You're not too bad. What's itgonna hurt me? If I work
the system. You know what Imean. That's the way I see s
word, she said to Officer Hair. She else went on to say,

(30:18):
are you single to what? Sheresponded, Yeah, but you're not,
she said, I'm down to.Well, we'll just say blanking right now.
I think you know the words sheused before he interrupts. Before he
interrupts, don't say that right now. Don't say that now because everything's being

(30:40):
recorded right now, which suggests maybeif you said it later, when the
video camera's not on, I mighttake you up on it. That's the
way I read that anyway. Asthe pair approach the Dissension Center detention center,
Hair could be heard asking the femalesuspect what she is doing in the
backseat, turned off his body camand slowed his vehicles. He drove into
a resident street. The outlet addedabout twenty minutes later, he called for

(31:03):
a fellow officer to help him outof the police car for the ad.
Is it yeah, unidentified officer saidof Hair, I asked him if he
was okay. He said yes,and then asked if I had my patrol
car key with me. I askedwhy was he asking and what did he

(31:23):
need? Officer Hair then asked meif I could go meet him. I
asked him his location and he saidnear Cottonwood. I asked him why he
needed me. He said he wouldtell me when I got there. He
said he was really embarrassed. Bestgedus reported Hair believed the woman was suffering
from a medical emergency. Hair andthe woman denied anything untoward happened, and

(31:45):
the officer claimed he was checking herhis word on the suspect in the back
whatever. In the clip, hesaid, well, when I was walking
up through, that's when I noticedthat this door closed on me. That's
when I was trying to kind ofopen the door. Whatever. Thank you,
Liam. San Diego police officers foundtraces of Seamen on Harri's belt cord.

(32:07):
To the local reporting, she saidhe wanted to get with me when
I was done with the warrant orwhatever I got arrested for. It's unclear

passenger eventually arrested. Photos showing himbeing pinned down face first by someone with
the foot on his back near hisstill exposed naked bottom. Unidentified man stripped

(34:45):
off Monday, soon after the flightleft Perth for Melbourne. Flight crew member
and another passenger told Australian radio stationthree a W he suddenly went bananas,
running up and down the aisle andbashing on the cockpit door, knocking over
a flight crewmember. Two air marshalshad to restrain and handcuff the individual until

(35:06):
they landed. Plane forced to turnback to Perth, where it was met
by police who arrested the disruptive passenger. Australian Federal Police confirmed that the officers
arrest of the man after he allegedlyran naked through the aircraft mid flight,
knocking the member to the floor.Remember the floor stafford was not injured.
Accord to the Australian Broadcasting Corporate reporting, the man was transferred to hospital for

(35:27):
assessment where he remains. According topolice. Not clear how or where on
the plane the passenger removed his clothes, not that the wear seems to matter.
He'll be in court June fourteenth,Not clear what charges he may face.

Nan passed away in August last yearand got cremated. Obviously, my family

(36:36):
and myself were grieving. So Iwent over to my mom's one night and
thought to cheer her up a bit. Let's just taste Nan do. What
the hell? After I did it? Once, I got Mom to do
it because I didn't want to bealone in it. She wanted to tell
the host that her brother had recentlybeen released from prison, and she welcomed
him home by while feeding his grandmother'sashes to him without consent. Why are

(37:00):
you doing that? She said,This is the part I've told nobody.
We haven't lived with each other sincewe were like young kids, so I
thought it would be funny to prankhim and put some of NaN's ashes in
the PASTA. Sauce didn't disclose whethershe told her brother about the Sauces edition,
but she has since sampled her grandmother'sashes again, confessing that she had

separation of powers which happens all thetime under both Republican and Democrat administrations.
What's the point of the Constitution ifpeople keep ignoring it? Anyway, and
I wanted to read this the otherday, Alyssa Finley's hop at on Anthony

(40:43):
Fauci and what are they doing tohiding it on the heels? I actually
brought it up today or wanted tobring it back to the top because yesterday
brad Winstrip Representative brad Winstrop, whowere fortunate enough to have come in studio
for an hour about every month,and we're going to miss him after he
moves on to the next days ofhis life after his term is over.
Anyway, Chair of the House OversightSelect Committee on the coronavirus pandemic outline evidence

(41:06):
in a letter he wrote to theNIH director Monica Bertegnolli. After getting documents,
they subpoenaed the personal emails of DavidMorn's senior advisor and to former National
Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease NIAIDdirector Anthony Fauci. In that letter,

(41:29):
Winster wrote, this evidence, takentogether, suggests a conspiracy at the highest
levels of NIH and NIAID to avoidpublic transparency regarding the COVID nineteen pandemic,
a pandemic that took the lives ofmore than one million Americans and I think
like eight million globally. If whatappears in these documents is true, this
is an apparent attack on the publictrust and must be met with swift enforcement

(41:52):
and consequences for those involved. AndI'd love to ask Congress from Winster for
anybody else who might know what theseconsequences might. They intentionally hid documents and
destroyed documents that should have been partof the public record, as required by
law, and they did this inan effort to avoid having to turn over

(42:13):
documents responding to FOYA requests Freedom ofInformation Act requests. Government hates those.
These documents show the Morning's consulted withNIH's Freedom of Information Office on the best
practices for deleting official records. Theywent so far as to write a one
email February twenty four to twenty one, quote, I learned from our Foya

(42:37):
lady here how to make emails disappear. Now the National and Superhealth has its
own Freedom of Information office. Theyget so many Foyer requests that they have
their own department within the NIH,and the person they're responsible apparently can explain

(42:57):
how those who are supposed to bekeeping this information how they can get rid
of them so the Foyle office doesn'thave to produce them. Documents also show
Moreens gave EcoHealth Alliance president Peter Dazak, EcoHealth one responsible for funding the gain
of function research that gave us thepandemic. They gave him preferential treatment by

(43:22):
forwarding to him, potentially damaging Foyaproductions before public release. Morens and Dazac
even mentioned a January twenty second emailchain that their emails might suggest they were
conspiring together in some way. That'sa quote, Hey, you know what
this is going to look like.We're conspiring to destroy evidence that we'll be

(43:44):
responsive to a FOIA request. Wellyou were. Warren's testified before the Select
Subcommittee last week that he'd been incontact with a public records officer for a
NIAID, but she had said thatthere was no way to delete emails permanently
from the NIH records. Warren's alsotestified that he didn't realize emails from his

(44:06):
government account were considered public records.Oh, I don't think ignorance the law
is an excuse here, Powell,And I don't think anybody's going to buy
into your argument that you really didn'tknow they were part of your public records.
And his letter weinster Boutline's other evidence, including a guy named Greg Fulkers,
Fauci's former chief of staff, utilizethese Freedom of Information Act evading tactics

(44:31):
by strategically misspelling words. So whathappens is that the NIH searches its email
server for keywords. So you senda FOI request saying I went all information
related to Eco health, gain,a function, whatever, whatever, whatever.
Well, if you don't spell theword right, it doesn't show up

(44:52):
in the search query. So ifthe NIH searches its email server for a
keyword, responsive to a FOI request. Folker's emails that contain the misspelled keywords
are not identified or produced as aresponsive document. They have an example here,
I think it was cited in CongressmanWeinster's letter June twenty twenty one email

(45:15):
Folkers appears to have misspelled eco healthas EC with a little squiggle health,
leaving out the oh in favor ofa Matilda or whatever that little squiggle is
called, Winster Brote. This suggeststhis may have been a common tactic with
NIAID and routinely employed. Yeah,he's requested a staff level briefing with this

(45:42):
Bertic Nooli guy no later than Junefourth, regarding document retention, transparency,
Freedom of Information Act requests, andpersonal email policies. Fauci is supposed to
be testifying for the Select Subcommittee onJune third. Seems to me this guy
should be in front of them beforethen. But over to a list of
Finley at the risk of running along, which I'm going to do. COVID

(46:04):
pandemic was in government's finest hour,not least because of persistent lack of transparency.
Emails released last week by the USHouse reveal how Anthony Fauci's former top
advisor worked to keep the public that'syou, in the dark, thwarting investigations
into COVID origins House Select subcommittee theCoronavirus Pandemic, which Brad is the chair.
They've been looking into the National institutessfor Health funding of the nonprofit EcoHealth

(46:27):
Alliance, some of which went tothe Wuhan Institute Virology, as I mentioned,
doing experiments with coronavirus, and wepretty much concluded now with definitive proof
that yes, they're responsible for creatingthis plague. On Humanity Committee earlier in
the week found the NIH and ecoHealth failed to monitor properly Wuhan experience experiments
subpen Private emails from Fauci's senior advisorthat David Morin's guy now show how NIH

(46:52):
officials and Eco Health president Peter Dazaksought to conceal their lapses. The Trump
administration in April twenty twenty suspended fundingfor eco Health. Doctor Morins rallied to
Dayzac's defense they were trying to keepthe funding in place. Doctor Morins wrote
to day Zach April twenty twenty,there are things I can't say except Tony

(47:16):
Fauci is aware and I've learned thereare ongoing efforts within NIH to steer through
this with minimal damage to you,Peter and colleagues, and to NIH and
NIATE. I have reasona believe thatthere are already efforts going on to protect
you. Fauci was the national directorthere between eighty four and twenty twenty two.

(47:38):
Parenthetically, NIAD doctor Morins led Dazachprotection program. He subpoenaed. His
supoena email show that he helped editeco health press release, and it worked
to get its funding restored. Alsosought the thwart Freedom of Information Act request
by outside groups regarding Ecohealth's grant.February twenty fourth, twenty one, Warrens

(48:00):
wrote to Boston University scientist Gerald Kouch. I learned from our Foyer lady here,
that's the person that Winstrip was referringto how to make emails disappear after
I'm foyed, but before the searchstarts. So I think we're all safe.
Plus I deleted most of these earlieremails after sending them to Gmail.

(48:22):
And I laugh at that because Gmailkeeps everything as well, so you know,
a subpoenat a Gmail probably would showthese up. And I'm sure that
they're all on that and as alist of Finley points out, safe from
what public scrutiny. Note that Morten'sand doctor kouch collaborate in a September twenty

(48:43):
twenty article that claimed theories about hypotheticalman made origins of Sorrow's COVID two have
been thoroughly discredited by multiple coronavirus experts. That article advocated more funding for groups
like Eco Health quote to prevent thistragic history from repeating itself, flipping reality
on top of its head. Fundingfor equal Health led to the creation of

(49:05):
this damn thing here. They aredenying that it was man made and encouraging
that funding continues so that they canwhat continue to work on changing bat viruses
around to affect human beings. DoctorMorrins noted in another email to doctor Kouch,
I learned the tricks last year froman old friend, Marge Moore,
who heads our Foyle office and alsohates Foyas the subject matter of her job,

(49:32):
it is her position to deal withfreedom of information at requests and she
hates them boid productions, They noted. Our burdensome, but government officials are
required by law to preserve their emailsand to conduct government business on government accounts.
Again, if you violate those lawsand those rules, what can be
done to these people? Doctor Morrinsdidn't. His email suggests Fauci may involved,

(50:00):
so used private addresses in this manner. Morns wrote to Dazac April twenty
first, twenty one. Quote,ps, I forgot to say. There
is no worry about Foya's. Ican either send stuff to Tony on his
private Gmail or hand it to himat work or at his house. He's
too smart to let colleagues send himstuff that could cause trouble. Close quote

(50:21):
next day Morn's were at the koach. If I had to bet, I
would guess that beneath Tony's Macho,I am not worried reaction. He is
really concerned and whatever the case,he should be very concerned about what happens
to Peter, to our research portfolioin an extremely important area, and to
scientific independence. In other words,NIH officials worried about losing public support if

(50:43):
their EcoHealth records were made public.Was this why the Health and Human Services
Department in May of twenty one blockedFOYA document releases related to eco health and
the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Sheasks rhetorically, mister Dazac thought so quote
on a cynical note. I suspectHHS is doing this because they feel that

(51:07):
Tony Fauci and Francis Colin, formerhead of the NIH, are under pressure
and if they don't want more mudto be and they don't want more mud
to be slung around haul of theFoy releases may also have given the NIH
officials more time yes to clean outtheir emails. Morn's wrote to another outside

(51:27):
collaborator collaborator, Baylor College of Medicine'sPeter Hotz June twenty eighth, twenty one,
that he had deleted all his emailsrelated to the COVID origin quote when
the S word starts hitting the fanclose quote. He said, I feel
pretty sure Tony was too. Bestway to avoid Foya hassles is to delete
all emails when you learn a subjectis getting sensitive close quote. In other

(51:51):
words, Morns believe that Fauci's emailswith mister Dazak were also deleted to avoid
public disclosure. Mid increasing scrutiny fromHouse Republicans of Eco Health's grand doctor Morins
wrote to day Zac in October oftwenty one, Peter, from Tony's numerous
recent comments to me, and fromwhat Francis Collins has been vocal about over
the past five days, they aretrying to protect you, which also protects

(52:15):
their own reputations. Well, it'squote Morrien's emails showcase how government officials circle
the wagons to protect themselves. Morns, who's currently on administrative leave owing to
the committee's revelations of his potential federalrecords law violation, told lawmakers last week
last week his Foyer avoidance was wrong, but denied knowledge that his emails constituted

(52:39):
federal records under the law. Obviouslyand regardless, he was clearly trying to
conceal the Dazak grant background. Inrelated news, HHS moved last week to
barre Dayzac from federal programs, citingEcohealth's improper conduct. Doctor Koisch, in
a statement, called mister Dazak's punishmentquotquote really dangerous to science, for sciences

(53:01):
and for national security close quote.Alyssa Finlay notes the real danger to science
is a lack of candor by healthofficials. House investigation and other illustration of
why Americans have lost trust in publichealth institutions. Members of Congress might consider
cutting funding for the NIH's punishment forthe employees' obfuscations. Yes, indeed,

(53:24):

these people criminally and hold them outas examples for the rest of the world

Over the local stories here, Erliner, there are major delays on the highway
closest since North Kentucky International Airport thismorning. Give yourself extra time heading that

(56:45):
way. According to Fox nineteen,which I mentioned a moment ago, westbound
Interstate two seventy five in erlink oronly two lanes open. Crews continue to
clean up an overnight crash between twosemis, a fire and a fuel spill.
Earl Anger Police This was just updatedjust about twenty minutes ago. Incident
initially closed all westbound lanes for hourshalfway between I seventy one seventy five interchange

(57:10):
and the Miniala Pike exit. Reportedshortly before eleven pm yesterday. According to
Earlanger Police Sergeant Kyle Thornberry, trafficcould not be diverted for more than two
hours for safety reasons, while firecrews put out the fire and stay road
clues cleaned up the fuel spill fromthe semi. I always been virtually shut
down all night. Sergeant Thornberry said, we hope to get this open soon

(57:31):
to get everything back to normal.Semi hauling a trail full of furniture rear
ended a semi without a trailer,and the first semi's engine burst into flames.
They said. Fire shot ten tofifteen feet in the air and at
one point it spread to the semi'scab and trailer, igniting the furniture.

(57:52):
The fire chief Battalion chief said itwas pretty impressive. His words, cruise
were slow because they battling the firebecause they had to stopped and haul out
sofas and recliners to reach the restof the trailer. Also had to deal
with a fuel spill. Wow estimatedthree hundred four hundred feet of fuel seeped

(58:12):
onto the highway, quote like aglaze. It wasn't pouring out or anything.
It kind of left a thin filmof diesel fuel on the interstate.
Fuel did not ignite, Luckily,the fire chief pointed out, so you
may still have that to deal with. You don't have to deal with eastbound
nor with lateral. Apparently it's opentoday eastbound lanes and over with ladel opened
by the time you're going to workthis morning. Eastbound lanes opened apparently at

(58:35):
nine pm last night. Repair workstarted March eleventh, originally expected to be
done by Memorial Day, had delayjust a little bit. They claimed bad
weather was to blame for it notbeing done by the original anticipated completion date.
According to the District eight spokesperson,had an effect, especially the last
couple of weeks, because when thecontractors are going to be out there paving,
we've had a few days of prettysignificant rain come through when they were

(58:59):
doing night time operation, so itstopped the work and the work didn't happen.
That construction includes resurfacing, rehabilitating threebridges, repairing joints, replacing barriers,
painting and ceiling. That lane nowdone, cruising moving over to the
westbound lanes. It's going to beabout a week when both lanes will be
opened, so enjoy it. Whileat last June tenth is when the cruise

(59:21):
is going to be working on thewestbound lanes, said O Dot recommends drivers
use Reagan Cross County Highway or FortWashington Way as alternative routes. Full lane
enclosures expected to end by Labor Day. The completion day for the NORWI lateral
project isn't until June of next year, but they're going to be working on
smaller finishing detail projects which will notinclude entire lane closures. So time does

(59:46):
fly. And I got a notefrom someone who's involved over in Covington and
asked is seeking to put speed bumpson Scott Street. Although I do not
believe speed had anything to do withthis incident that reported, there is an
investigation underway. A person on anelectric scooter got hit by a vehicle yesterday
quartered to three in the afternoon.Officers on the scene of an unrelated call

(01:00:07):
when they saw a person get hitby a vehicle at Scott Street in park
Place. Steve Markovich, who sentme the email, said he witnessed the
crash. He says the scooter washit while making a turn coming to fire.
Department said the person was pinned underthe vehicle for a short time.
Electric scooter writers suffered serious injuries,taking a UC Medical Center around six fifteen.
Police said the person was in stablecondition, which is nice. The

(01:00:30):
driver of the vehicle stayed on thesteam and was cooperating with the investigation,
according to the coming police. Andno charges have been filed in the roadway
back open. And I note thatno charges have been filed. In response

on your show is just so criticalbecause now just the last segment that went

into all of the information that Congressmanwins have shared about government employees, you
know, hiding information, not wantingto be responded. You know, it
ties so neatly into what Todd wassharing. Why do our elected officials feel

(01:03:50):
know, their jobs and the jobsof the city employees. And that comprehensive
zoning change in my experience, andI try to volunteer and be involved in
not only one, but two civicassociations because I live in one of the
dozen areas in Cincinnati that's claimed bytwo community councils. So I'm a lifetime

(01:04:13):
member of the Avondale Community Council.I'm also a member of the North Avondale
Neighborhood Association. And I knew nothingabout this, And maybe I've got to
just call some friends in the AvondaleCommunity Council to see when this zoning issue
came up, because I thought thepart of the interview where Todd said,
you know, rather than then implementthis comprehensive change that apparently did not have

(01:04:39):
the level of transparency and civic engagementthat city processes have been known for over
the years, he said, youknow, and I thought it was reasonable
you know that maybe it should bepiloted in one of the neighborhoods that has
gone on record to support it.But Mike, and that's totally reasonable,

(01:05:00):
sure, rather than implemented, youknow, as a blanket thing all over
the city. But then, youknow, neighbor called me and said that
that that the city submitted an applicationto the US Department of Housing and Urban
Development to put more quote unquote affordablehousing, uh in Avamdale. Now I've

(01:05:24):
got to dig deeper to find outwhat that application is all about. And
it's not my understanding. It's notmeant to subsidize the zoning change. It's
meant to subsidize quote unquote affordable housing, a term that I got a problem
with because it obscures too much.You either have market rate housing or have
subsidized housing. But you know,the zoning change will help, I think,

(01:05:48):
to facilitate the award of this grant. I don't know who is involved
in it, what the implications are, but I think that there used to
be a time if you were ahomeowner, the Planning Commission would send you
a notice about impactful things like aproposed zoning change or development. I've got
nothing in the man nothing and soI you know, I'm going to listen

(01:06:12):
to uh. I was getting readycall him doctor Winster, which he is,
but right now, thank god he'sstill Connis. I will and I
just don't hate to see him go. You know, he's got to have
a life, well that you knowhe does have. He does have young
children, yes, and I thinkhe's exactly just his life is flashing before

(01:06:34):
him like mine is. I'm sureRiz you might know. The older you
get, the faster time goes,and the more he spends time in Washington,
the less. Yeah. I justwent to a high school graduation and
I remember the child as a baby. That's all I could think about,
with her falling around as a babyand how darling she was as a toddler

(01:06:54):
and now she's going off to college. But thank you, And I think
that's the thing I want to getacross to your listener. Listen to the
podcast. I think you said somethingabout that at the five o'clock hour,
because I am actually going to takeit upon myself to find out more about
what is going on because I thinkit and I know Todd. He's a
great guy. Yeah, and Iwant to learn more because I don't like

(01:07:17):
the behavior of government where people wereelected officials don't feel they have to be
responsive and pick up the phone orshare information in a timely transparent way with
citizens. Yes to the engagement iscumbersome, but that's part of what we
are as a people, and notto have, you know, one party

(01:07:41):
rule. I don't care if there'sone party Republican or one party Democrat.
People think elected officials thinking they canthink for us that I think that's why
I enjoy your show. Thank you, Roz a very libertarian perception of you.
Yes, we're capable of making ourown decisions on most issues. We
don't need to be told what todo. And if you're going to be
telling us what to do, youbetter give us advanced notice that we can
have an informed debate about it.Which I understand is your problem with them

(01:08:05):
railroading this thing across the board,and you're right, Zenzer had a wonderful
idea. Why are they ramming thisthrough across the board. There are neighborhoods
who want the zoning change. Let'ssee what happens if you grant the zoning
change in one particular neighborhood that's askedfor it see if the developers actually come
because and you talked about grant money, which I did not know was connected

(01:08:29):
with this. This and in mydiscussion with Todd didn't really deal with affordable
housing. They were talking more aboutletting developers just build you know, duplexus,
multi family units, but do iton their own dime, with their
own investment money, with the hopesof course that they would make a profit.
And that suggests to me that they'regoing to be building nicer maybe not
affordable housing. Maybe it would bereally cool condos or something that people can

(01:08:54):
afford two thousand plus dollars monthly renton. I don't know, but this
is why it's an experiment. Andyou don't something like this out in all
the neighborhoods at one time. Whynot give one or two neighborhoods that wanted
a shot first, and we'll seehow things go. If it works,
if it's a success, then maybemore neighborhoods will hold their hand up and
say, oh, we want thezoning change too, or it didn't work,

(01:09:15):
so don't shove it down our throat. Wonderful way of a yeah,
but see that you hit the nailon the head the neighborhoods don't have enough
information. I don't have enough informationright now in order to say, you
know, categorically, you know howI feel. But you know, a
neighbor of mine called me yesterday andraised so many issues. When when government

(01:09:40):
railroads these things out and pushing itso fast, it really raises suspicions that
they're trying to ob secure something,yes, that we ought to know.
That's why i don't want to makeany accusation. I'm just saying that I'm
deeply troubled. And I wanted tothank the Brian Thomas Show and having that
interview with Todd Zenzer and suggest thatpeople always listen to the show through the

(01:10:04):
podcast. Do it on the weekends. You'll do yourself a favor because you
might find out what's happening in yourown backyard that you didn't know about.
Because I want to dig deeply intothis and find out if, in fact
my neighborhood had given the high times, because I don't remember getting any information
in the mail that this was evenon an agenda, and you know,

(01:10:28):
I've got to investigate it more so. And then Roz And let me thank
not only for thanking for the kindwords. But let me thank you for
your civic engagement. We need morepeople like you. And if you are
engaged as you say you are,and I believe you fully and you don't
have this information, there's your redflag legitimately so. And where Todd and
I are in total agreement is thatthe process needs to stop, full stop,

(01:10:54):
full stop. That everybody that mayhave different priorities in the zoning change,
can you know, at least havea chance to discuss it, that
it gets backs and data and thenmake a decision. But to have this
been posed on us like this andsteamroll, it is so disrespectful. It
is Roz God bless you. Thankyou for your call this morning. I

A buddy Jeff saved thirty one hundreddollars on his echo cardiogram because he

called ahead of time and found outwhat the hospital imaging department was going to
pay or was going to charge,plus what his insurance payment was going to
be, leaving him with a billof thirty one hundred dollars. He said,
hell no. He went to AffordableImaging Services where he got that echo
cardiogram with the board certified radiologist reportfor four hundred and ninety five dollars,

(01:11:59):
the whole thing, no ups,no extras. It's the complete package,
the same thing you would have gottenat the hospital limitging department, except probably
would have to pay a separate billfor the for the radiologist report. Affordable
Imaging Services does MRI, CT scans, echo cardigrams, ultrasounds, lung screenings,
and cardiac scorings for a very affordableprice, unlike the hospital imaging department.
Heck, you can get a lungscreening there for ninety nine dollars.

(01:12:24):
You have a choice when where yougo for your medical treatment. And just
because your doctor wants you to goto the hospital imaging department, it's probably
because his practice or her practice isowned by the hospital. They make fat

So good morning, guys. Andfurther to Ross's point, and I

and these people lying to him,the folks behind the scenes that aren't elected,
the folks at Naiad and NIA hidingdocuments, deleting them so they don't

(01:13:29):
have to respond to Foyer requests.It is one thing when our elected officials
lie to us or hide the ball, but it's almost worse, is it
not, when our elected officials,who are trying to get to the bottom
of what is going on behind thescenes and get to the truth of the
matter, when the unelected fill inthe blank with your favorite sec non compliant

(01:13:50):
descriptive term behind the scenes refused toanswer to the people that are responsible for

fine, except it Really there's anabsence in the morning show with you not

(01:15:46):
calling at five point thirty to remindpeople about it. I'm going through a
little with drill myself, so I'mglad I got a robber turney. So
I don't know what topics you didon I have to check the podcast last
day or too, but something I'mpersonally dealing with with. I know it
is kind of a national issue,people coming over here from other countries and
they want to work here. NowI'm just talking about people who are doing

(01:16:09):
it the right way, who aregetting a dream card, who are getting
permission, and they're not just sneakingacross. I'm not even dealing with the
illegal immigration issue. I'm thinking aboutpeople who come here, and there's the
whole idea of assimilating and becoming partof our society. And one of the
most important things that people need tokeep in mind is we've got to be
able to communicate with people. SoI've taken it upon myself to learn substantics

(01:16:30):
over the years, and I'm fairlydecent at it enough where I can get
by. But I'm finding too oftenthat there's a lot of people, especially
Hispanics, who are not going throughthe trouble of learning enough English so they
can communicate, so they come onto like, for example, I find
this a lot in construction to comeon to a job site and makes it
very difficult to communicate with people.Here's what I need you to do.

(01:16:51):
Here's paperwork I need you to fillout, and they look at you like
you know, dear the headlights,if you don't know what you're talking about.
We got to be able to communicatewith each other. And so one
of the parts of this conversation aboutand immigration is fine, we what,
we welcome you, we want youknow, we're a country of immigrants,
that whole thing. That's all welland good, but you need to be

(01:17:12):
able to communicate with us. Yougotta be able to talk to us,
and so we can understand you.You can understand this, so we can
cooperate and work and make some progressin each other. If you can't understand
what I'm saying to you, you'regonna you're not gonna do what you need
to do. You're gonna come workat a job and you're not gonna be
able to function some properly because youcan't understand what I'm telling you to do.
And that's not okay, that's notacceptable, and that's something that definitely
needs to be part of this conversation. So that's my little two cents today,

(01:17:35):
and of course, as always,don't vote Democrat. Have a great
day, but thank you for callingTom, and you make a wonderful point
and I understand that completely and withsome paid in contractors in after the bathroom
project was finally done, and ofcourse drywall work need to be done.
There were three Hispanic painters there,all green cards, are legal employees,

(01:17:55):
but only one of them spoke,and I mean very very broken English,
and which made it, you know, really almost impossible for my wife or
me to tell them what they neededto do, what they needed to follow
up on them, the like.And it's just one small, very minor
Everything ultimately got done to our satisfaction. But I just can't imagine in a

(01:18:17):
broader situation where you're building a buildinglike Tom's talking about, or more fundamentally,
a teacher in a classroom, andwe've heard and you know, I
know, you know, Welllis's stayup on this kind of thing, this
border situation with millions and millions ofpeople, many of them school age young

(01:18:40):
people, flowing into these cities,either flown directly by our government or coming
across the open border and just goingwhatever the hell they want, landing in
classrooms because we have a societal obligationto eneavor to educate these children. If
they don't speak English, how arethey going to learn. We've got a

(01:19:02):
massive budget crisis here in the CincinniCity Schools as a huge article about it
in the Cincinni Enquiry this morning,I read, I mean real financial problems.
Can you imagine an additional ten twentythousand illegal immigrants to children coming into
classes and not speaking English? Andit's not just Spanish. We do have

(01:19:24):
a sizable portion of the immigrant populationlegal and otherwise that do speak Spanish of
one of the Latin languages, butwe have also millions of other languages.
I mean, you've seen the litanyof countries from the four corners of the
globe been able to make it tothe southern border, or maybe even the

(01:19:46):
northern border as the case maybe becausethat's becoming a problem as well, but
nowhere near the level we see atthe southern border. How are schools able
to do that? How is yourchild, your English speaking child otherwise normally
and obviously is sitting in an Englishspeaking classroom going to get the attention he

(01:20:10):
or she needs to learn the material. If all of these resources must be
thrown at translators, is each childfrom every different language that's spoken that crosses
the border going to be as signeda translator? Are they going to be
parked in an individual, one onone situation classroom. I mean, I

(01:20:32):
don't know Zimbabwe, I don't knowwhat language they speak a Zimbabwean. I'm
just picking a country at random.How many you know overall? In the
grand scheme of things, you mightsay, well, we could easily do
Spanish language teaching courses and you know, put them in in English language learning
classes, et cetera. And youcan do everything of that, but you
need to be able to translate fromthe original language into English in order to

(01:20:54):
provide a foundation to learn the Englishlanguage. And then, I'm sure sure
there are some liberal, left wingnut jobs out there say, well,
you know, English is you know, part of the problem, and it's
part of the historic colonialization. Theonly reason were speaking is because the colonial
and the colonists came over here.And berber berber er, berber shut up.

(01:21:17):
It's the dominant language, you know. And now air traffic controllers must
learn English, airline pilots must learnit is the universal language for airlines.
How is it that we arrived onthat? Oh, I don't know.
Maybe the evil white people, thenorthern Europeans or Americans are responsible for all.
That's right. The Wright brothers,they invented aircraft. I'm sure the

(01:21:41):
rest of the world's pretty darn happythat we have aircraft, in spite of
the fact that Greta Thunberg thinks they'regonna kill everybody. But communication is critical,
and most notably, it's critical ineducation, and it's already bad enough.
You look at the Baltimore Public schoolsor any other public school systems which
are hemorrhaging people like Florida. Igot a great article it's coming out of

(01:22:02):
Florida. They got schools closing leftand right because they have school choice in
Florida. But if you look atsome of these public school systems where even
English speaking children are failing miserably,they're not capable of grasping the subject matter.

(01:22:23):
I don't know. I can't blamethe teachers entirely on this. I'm
sure they're in part to blame,but you know, most notably, I
always like to traditionally blame the familyunit. Are there people at home that
care enough about these children to insistthat they buckle down and do the damn
work that they need to do inorder to learn and advance and ultimately be

(01:22:45):
able to afford themselves to care forthemselves and not have to rely on somebody
else to do it. That wasmy mom and dad. God bless both
of them. I've said more thanone time on this program, and many
times more times and I can count. You know, the greatest gift my
parents gave me was the gift ofeducation, right after the gift of life,
because it allowed me to, yesindependently provide for myself and ultimately my

(01:23:11):
family, thankfully with the assistance ofmy wife, who my education well taught
me. Marry a smart person,especially one that is nice and as pretty
as my wife. But how dothey cope in schools? Tom's got enough
problems on his job site with legalimmigration. Not weep for the children in

(01:23:32):
America for that one. That,among anything but Lord Almighty, presents such
an insurmountable challenge. Seven fifteen fiftyfive K City TALKX station. Feel free

He's ninety four years young today,So happy birthday, Elmer. I
hope you're listening, and I wishyou all the best. Uh and real
quick here before I get to Joey, hang on one second. Joey Eric
one of my friends, one ofmy favorite meme guys. Hees meme genius.
He said, I teach operator classesall over the United States, and
a number of times that I've hadto have a translator so that every one

(01:26:23):
in the class can understand how tosafely operate this piece of heavy equipment.
Blows my mind. And my responsewas, yeah, a cost passed along
to the consumer. No doubt.He's in a private business and industry they
can afford to hire one. Butthen again, that adds to the cost.
It's maybe we'll call it an inflationarypressure. I'm staring at a headline,

(01:26:45):
Madeline Mitchell. You can check itout yourself. Since any dot com
you inquire headline Cincinnati school Board tomake more cuts close budget gaps. They're
thinking about cuts a twenty six milliondollar budget gap. Now, I don't
know if we have an illegal immigrantchildren problem in the sinsinme public schools,
but why don't you throw into themix the concept of thousands of people speaking

(01:27:08):
all kinds of different languages and whatan overwhelming expense it will be to have
translators to deal with their needs.Joey, thanks for calling this morning.
Welcome to the Morning Show. Hi, good morning, How you doing.
I'm fine, hope you can saythe same on my way to work.
But I was listening to what you'retalking about with the schools and so forth,

(01:27:30):
and it's just not right that allthese people are coming in and going
in to my kids and your kidsand everybody's kids' schools and taken away from
the ability and time that they shouldget to learn like they normally would because
of the fact that we've got thisconsequence of they can't speak English. It's
not right. And to add tothat, they have not built these schools,

(01:27:55):
they have not contributed to these schools, they have not paid access for
these schools. So, and I'mnot uncompassionate to these children. They need
to go to school, but thereneeds to be something implemented so that they
can come in and learn the Englishlanguage first or after school classes where their
parents, by God, need topay fifty dollars a week for their child

(01:28:18):
to learn English and English numbers andcounting and so forth on their own after
school. They should say from threeto five o'clock or something every day so
they learn the language, and theirparents need to get a job and they
need to come up with fifty dollarsa week to pay for whoever is teaching
is to their students. It's notright. And I add to that one

(01:28:40):
time. I hate to mention this, but I'll never forget. It's been
about seven or eight years ago whenI stumbled upon food and speaking to a
big auditorium of people, and Idon't know what the whole thing was about,
but it had some coverage and Ihappened to catch this one section of
Poodin of all people. He's abad man talking, and I'll never forget.
I gave him a out of respectbecause they were talking about people coming

(01:29:02):
to Russia and immigrants coming in soand forth, and he put his hand
down in a fist down and said, listen, you're welcome to come to
our country. We welcome you cancome to our country. But when you
come to our country, you aregoing to learn our language. You are
going to learn our culture, ourreligions, and the way we do things

(01:29:23):
here and follow our laws. We'renot going to be like the United States
in giving away their country. Andsince that time he was right, we
have gone way past that. Well, you stumbled into a whole mix of
responsive talking points on the left.You racist, xenophobe, You a perpetuator

(01:29:45):
of white supremacy and colonialism. Imean, you know, everything that we
have here in the United States isthe product of yes, settlers and the
result of these settlers settling the landand creating the states and forming a union.
But you know, under one constitutionthat protects our freedoms and liberties,
all of which the left hates inan effort to push Marxism down our throats.

(01:30:08):
That's exactly what they want to eradicatein this I am convinced this overwhelming
our institutions, our social welfare,safety net, the public schools and everything,
with this influx of people who donot speak English is part of the
problem and part of the process dividingus all and making us well a bunch
of ignorant Americans, because if you'renot spending the resources, time and effort

(01:30:29):
to educate Americans to do work inAmerica for the benefit of America racist xenophobe,
then and you're creating a whole classof young people that are just basically
plain ignorant, as demonstrated by thescoring that we get out of so many
public schools these days. It's working. Our young people are incapable of critical

(01:30:51):
thinking. They don't have a masteryof the subject matter at any grade level
for the most part or in manycases, which is sad. So you
can say I'm a conspiracy theorist forthinking this is actually an intended benefit.
But whether it's intended or not,it's reality, and we are going to

(01:31:11):
suffer mightily in the future. ChristopherSmithman with a smithervent coming up next.
Looking forward to having him back onthe program on a Wednesday special Wednesday edition.
And I also appreciate you, SusetteLow's Camp for helping out so many
listeners over the years with their mortgagerelated needs. You want to buy a
house, you need pre approval ather first time buyers, you absolutely need
that, sus that can manage thatfor you. She did it for my

(01:31:32):
young people, my daughter and aboyfriend Eric, and in no time,
I mean from the phone call togetting approval. I mean the turnaround was
very quick, and I was sopleased and they were so happy. They
even told me like, oh,really glad you turned this over to Susane
because they were talking to a bankand the hassle and the headache and have
these meetings and stuff, and itjust I always say, you don't listen
to the program with Susane loads agap. It was like three days later

(01:31:55):
and they had the financing ready.So just one illustration of the great rate
reasonto working with Suzette. Customer servicessecond to none. And how about refinancing.
I know you're worried about the ratesright now, but Susette right now,
for loans that close by June thirteenth, she's offering a closing cost credit
of up to fifteen hundred dollars soyou can save on the refinance costs down

(01:32:16):
the line when we hope the raidsdrop. And this certificate worth fifteen hundred
dollars is good through December thirty,first of twenty twenty five. So now's
a great time to working with Susanteand you know and Assatus are leading some
of the concerns you have about refinancingdown the road because we all know when
the rates drop, everybody's going towant a refinance. But for all mortgage

Always happy whether it's a Monday,Wednesday, or any other day of
the week, at any time ofthe week to hear from Christopher Smith and
former Vice mayor of the City ofCincinnati. We do the Smith Event every
Monday, traditionally at seven point thirty, but in honor Memorial Day. Got
the day off to reflect and contemplateand thank those who paid the ultimate sacrifice,

(01:34:30):
so didn't get to hear from smithAman, but today we do.
Welcome back Christopher Smithman. God blessyou, Bret Man. It's good to
have you on the show. Brother, God bless you. I know Memorial
Day we can it has passed.But let me again just extend my complete
gratitude for all of those servicemen andwomen, police officers, firefighters, all

(01:34:57):
of them that have paid that ultimatesacri And by the way, you and
I know that we would not havethe freedoms in this country without the sacrifice
that they made for us. SoI extend my deepest gratitude to them and
their family. Brother, I'm goingto tee off on the biggest story in

(01:35:20):
the news, and of course Iknow you'll pile on with me, but
we have I know you will.But look, this Trump case is not
about Trump. It's about Trump,but it's not about Trump. This is
a hoax man, this hush moneycase. I've never seen anything like it

(01:35:42):
in my life. Where you havea sitting a former sitting president sitting in
a courtroom in Manhattan and you hear. You have a guy by the name
of Cohen, his former lawyer,who who is an absolute pathological liar.
He lied to Congress, he liedin his deposition, He even lied in

(01:36:02):
the case that he's in right nowin front of these jurors, and you're
going to convict a former sitting presidenton a journal entry between him and his
attorney that his attorney said he did. That you can prove without a absolute,
no doubt that this man is guiltyof something that you're going to try

(01:36:25):
to put him in jail. Ihave never seen anything, and I am
furious that here you have the DemocraticParty using the judicial system as a weapon
against their political opponent. This issomething you see in third world countries.
You do not see it in theUnited States of America. And people have
to they have to hear my voicebecause if they convict this man, there

(01:36:49):
are people out there, Brian Thomas, who are not watching this. They're
not dialed in. And the storyyou've already got President Biden saying he's going
to have a White House press conference. At a press conference about what's been
going on between Israel and the Hamad, this guy says he's going to have
a press conference about the outcome ofthis political case. And I called it

(01:37:11):
a political case, Brian. Thisis really really bad stuff, and we've
got to stand up against this kindof tyranny. It's terrible and it's not
about Trump. People, people whoare listening to me. If you think
this is about Trump, it'll beyou. It'll be your mom and dad,
it'll be your child. If theycan do this to former President Trump
the way they have created this politicaltrial against him, they can do it

(01:37:35):
against any of us, oh,without question. And I'm sure there's many
in the listening audience screaming, yeah, they're doing it right now. The
January sixth protesters, and say whatyou want about that. I thought it
looked more like a drunken fraternity partyand it was a stupid exercise because they
weren't going to accomplish anything. Butsending people to prison for fifteen years for
walking into a building, quite oftenat the encouragement of law enforcement, seems

(01:37:58):
to me to be a bit ofa stretch. But yes, it could
have to anybody. And when youtalk about that, Trump at least has
money and he can pay his lawyersto defend him, which is exactly what
he did with that Stormy Daniels thing. So I think he probably was more
interested in keep a man millennia inthe dark about it. But you know,
I call it what you will.At least he can pay to defend
himself. Christopher, I don't knowabout you. I don't have enough money

(01:38:19):
to afford one thousand dollars an hourattorney, and that's what you're gonna have
to pay. I mean, fivehundred four hundred. There's some criminal lawyer
out there going no, I'll doit for two hundred and fifty bucks an
hour. Oh great. That reallyalleviates my financial concerns considering the hundreds of
hours you're going to have to workdefending me in a complex criminal matter.
But you're right, and you havethe other component of this. Now,

(01:38:41):
if he is convicted, you mentionedjail, and that is a possibility because
thirty four felony falsifications he's facing eachcarries a sentence of up to four years
in priven prison in a five thousanddollars fine. So he could, but
it's probably more likely. And it'snoted that the judge has a lot of
leeway in determining whether people are goingto go to jail or not. Somebody

(01:39:02):
did an analysis of the Manhattan DistrictAttorney's office about falsifying business records cases.
They found that roughly one in tenended up with a sentence of incarcarceration.
Some guy named norm ice In anauthor an attorney, so he did the
analysis. So it's in a rarecase that someone goes to jail. But

(01:39:23):
one of the things that this judgeMershon could do would be to sentence him
to house arrest, probation and orhouse arrests. How can you run a
campaign from your house? I knowJoe Biden did it, but at least
he had COVID to hide behind.Donald Trump goes out and engages with the
masses. He draws a pretty goodnumber of people when he shows up,

(01:39:45):
but he needs to travel state tostate to get his message out. I
don't think it's going to be avery effective campaign if he's got to do
it from inside his house, beingunder house arrest. So maybe that's what
the ultimate goal is, to keephim off the campaign trail. Part of
the law fair Christopher, here's wherewe're gonna head. It is very sad
to say, because the Democratic Partyhere and it's leadership and I'm talking straight

(01:40:09):
to the White House. Are soextreme that they're starting to push our country
into a civil war. This ishow it starts. You have this kind
of tyranny where you say, Ihave a court, a judge, a
prosecutor in Manhattan with these trumped upcharges to say, this guy's running for

(01:40:30):
president and we're going to bring himdown here because Stormy Daniels said he did
something, and you're going to havehis former lawyer, who is a absolute
convicted liar. You're going to convicthim and put him into jail, or
you're going to confine him to hishome. As you've described, Buddy,
they haven't seen anything. They haven'tseen anything if they decided to put a

(01:40:54):
handcuffs. And I'm saying what peoplehave to realize, Brian and the Libertarians
out there are going to watch theRepublicans, the Democrats, the blue dog
Democrats, the independence like me whoare watching this. We have to understand
that this could happen to us.It's bigger than Trump. This is about
using our judicial system as a weapon, period. And a lot of African

(01:41:15):
Americans out here, by the way, they're wondering why the polls are going
up because a lot of African Americansin this country have had similar issues.
Right where fifty sixty years ago,what did the court system look like for
African Americans? From my mother who'seighty five from Montgomery, Alabama, from
my father from Birmingham, Alabama.You could lynch somebody in this country sixty

(01:41:40):
to one hundred years ago and theycouldn't get justice. That's the reality.
And so there are people out theregoing, oh my goodness, we're going
back there, and you're starting tosee the You're starting to see more and
more African Americans and Latinos for differentreasons, dial in on this case,
which is backfiring on the Democratic Party. It's backfiring on I'm glad to see
that it is, and you're rightthe pulling numbers do reflect that. So

(01:42:02):
let's pause. Will bring Christopher backbecause I have a question I want to
post to you about your comment aboutCivil War Christopher, and get your other
thoughts and comments on this wonderful Wednesdayedition of the Smith Event. It's seven

City since Sant Christopher Smith Amen doingthat Smith event on a Wednesday, which
is great. Now, obviously,I mean you're obviously upset about the lawfair
going on. I agree with allof your comments, and you didn't call
me looking for an argument, obviously, but you did mention civil war and

(01:44:39):
part of me, and I wantedto get your reaction on this, part
of me thinks that the Democrats areare going with the Biden Harris ticket as
batcrap is insane as that seems tome to be to rational thinking people.
I think one of two thinks theywant Trump to win because they have no

(01:45:00):
backbench and to have Trump as presidenthelps them with this division that they have
been stirring, this pot of angeragainst and resentment against everybody's fellow Americans.
That Trump as president will be thatlightning rod that will motivate all these leftist
activists even more so to take tothe streets. And if you think about

(01:45:21):
civil war, regardless if it's thator if on the other side, Trump
were to get convicted, and somefolks out there in the always Trump supporting
community think that that has been injustice, which is probably true, an injustice
and it's wrong, and it's goingto keep Trump off the bout or whatever
that they're going to take to thestreet, which will also serve to further

(01:45:43):
divide America. The division in Americais what they're looking for, and I
think they get their way either witha Trump conviction or with a Trump presidency.
Your reaction, Yeah, I thinkthey're seeding it. I absolutely agree.
I mean the speech that President Bidengave to Morehouse graduates. Yeah,

(01:46:05):
okay, if people haven't heard thatspeech, take the time to listen to
what he said to some of thegreatest minds in the world. It was
all about division and what they can'tdo, why they can't make it.
And these are people that are Theseare students who are going like as they
graduate, they're going to medical school, they're going to get their NBA,

(01:46:27):
they're going to work on their PhD. They're going to hedge funds, to
run hedge funds in New York City. I mean, and so this notion
that he's saying somebody has their footon your neck and you're talking to the
talented tenth This is the Harvard Theyyell, whatever you want to call it,
of HBCUs And that was his messageto them. And so the Democratic

(01:46:55):
Party is constantly seeding these these divisionsthat they try to harvest on election day
was here. But what I'm talkingabout is we haven't heard from the right,
meaning the right tends to be incrediblyquiet. They're watching this very closely.
And I'm saying to you that again, once the public loses confidence in

(01:47:17):
the judicial system and they say,man, this branch of our government is
out of control. Right, theSecond Amendment is not for us worried about
what my neighbor is doing. TheSecond Amendment is more about the government's overreach.
And people don't understand that our forefatherswere thinking about that. And so

(01:47:39):
they're watching the judicial system now andinterfere in a presidential election, and it
is absolutely tyranny. And that iswhat starts pushing us culture and culture,
in my opinion, to civil war. And I'm very very worried about it.
And I will use that language onyour radio station. Loosely. I'm
saying, as I talk to people. If you go in and you practice

(01:48:00):
at a gun range and you seewhat you can buy what's not there.
People are getting ready for something.They're very worried, and it's because you
have a system, a government thatis overreaching and out of control right now,
and you're seeing it right now inManhattan. If they can do this
to former President Trump public, I'mtalking to everybody. If they can do

(01:48:25):
this to him, they can doit to you. And that's what you
have to be worried about. Thisis a political interference case in a presidential
election because one candidate, his nameis President Biden doesn't believe that he can
beat his opponent at the ballot box. So what they decided to do is
conjure up this case eight years laterand say we're going to try to put

(01:48:46):
him in jail on something. StormyDaniels has said, and he's a former
attorney Attorney Cohen has said, thisis outrageous and we're going to have most
likely a verdict today or tomorrow,Like this is coming right now, We'll
all will face this. By thetime I come back and you talk about
it on Monday, this will almostbe old news and we'll know what the
judge is doing come back for sentencingreally really dangerous stuff. Well dangerous,

(01:49:11):
Call me an idiot, but Iyou know, I, maybe sadly pathetically,
still have some sense of respect andbelief in the judicial system. And
even though the jury's made up ofa bunch of probably var left wing or
released Democrat New Yorkers, you knowthey're going to be held accountable fur their
verdict and reasonable doubt is reasonable doubtand it shouldn't bear a political stripe.

(01:49:35):
And I think there's far I mean, is so much reasonable doubt. As
you pointed out that their chief witnessis an absolute, absolute, confessed,
admitted liar and perjurer. So I'mkeeping my you know, powder dry on
my comments about the direction this isgoing to go. I know everybody in
my listening audience, I think believesit's a foregone conclusion that he's going to

(01:49:56):
be guilty. But you mentioned theundermining of institution. You're talking about the
legal institution, in our faith orlack thereof in it. Of course,
this is undermining it, but alsoundermined the Department of Justice in the FBI.
If you look at the way theytreated you know, Hunter Biden compared
to fill in the blank, anybodyelse with tax problems, slow walking investigations

(01:50:16):
until the statute limitations ran, andtrying to get a quick plea deal to
get him out of all of hishot water that you and I and no
one else would ever possibly get.And you could go on and on.
So you know, people say,well, I've lost faith in the Department
of Justice in the FBI. There'ssupposed to be the ones enforcing the law,

(01:50:36):
responsible for equal treatment under the law, and we see many illustrations,
more than I care to remember,of how they do not treat people equally
under the law, special treatment forspecial people. This is the kind of
thing, like you point out,you see in third world countries. We
really do, now, Brian,I want to have I want to say

(01:50:57):
one thing that kind of just caughtmy attention and then have a little fun
with you before we get off.So the so the the one more thing
that I want to say is thatyou know, I noticed that our current
mayor mayor purrival, you know,and I know you have spoken at the
police memorial on Fountain Square. I'vespoken there, and so you know the

(01:51:18):
procedure and so the reality of itis is that I'm watching these images where
the the everybody is in salute modethan the you know, saluting the flag,
doing the pleasure of allegiance, doingthe national anthem, and our mayor
is standing there without his hand acrosshis heart, are standing in a position
of reverence. I don't know whatthat was, and he was having a

(01:51:40):
moment, but I want to suggestto him and to anybody working around him,
right, I'm very offended when Isee images like that, And so
the next time he's out, makesure he has his hand over his heart
and he's respecting those who given theirultimate sacrifice. Because that's why you're on
Fountain Square, because your own officehas lost their lives. And so you

(01:52:01):
don't go down there and sit andeverybody else is saluting. Every widow and
widower is out there, and thenyou're not standing with your hand across your
heart. See that's how they play. This is this game they play where
they send these messages that they're reallynot supporting the police officers and law enforcement
are peace officers. And we actuallygot the message, Mayor Pureval. So

(01:52:25):
we saw you get it together.On a thun note. Look, my
daughter's a swimmer. That's where Iam now. I won't give the location,
but one of our good friends,Judge Ruman, is here and let
me tell you, guy, thisguy's a fish. I mean he's swimming
at an hour to an hour anda half out fired. I'm still watching

(01:52:47):
him them swim right now. Thisis a guy who who does diving in
the Ohio River. But he's abeast. Man. This guy is in
his respectfully in his seventies. Man, you never believe it. He's going
up and down and up and downand up and down and up and down
for probably hour hour and a halfout here, and it's just amazing to

(01:53:09):
which I don't know how long he'sgoing to swim, but I almost going
to walk over and tap him andsay, buddy, you've done enough.
Just rumin. We believe you.We believe you. Brother. Hearing about
it, you can give me badflashbacks like Vietnam flashbacks from my days back
in the Cincinnati Marlins. Oh mygod. Well, salute to him,

(01:53:30):
and thanks for the props to himfor staying fit. That's it, Cross
brother, and thank you, brother, thank you so much. I look
forward to talking to you on Monday, and I'm really praying for our country.
Brian Thomas, this is one ofthose here we are in the middle
of history like this is unusual.We're outside of the norm. You and
I are walking through history on whatthis jury. And I really appreciate what

(01:53:53):
you said about the jury. Thereare two lawyers on this, but when
the jury instructions are standing is thatthey don't have to have a unanimous decision.
He gave them jury instructions that fourof them could agree and others don't,
they still can get a conviction.I've never heard anything like that.
Yes, and so this is goingto be incredibly interesting to watch in the

(01:54:15):
next forty eight hours. Yeah,judgment. Paula Todda did an interesting analysis
of that was reported on Newsmax abouthow there's basically two separate things that half
the jury could find him guilty,oh and the other half could find him
guilty of something else. In otherwords, not unanimous on the underlying fact
set and yet still end up witha jury verdict. And trust me,
that's one more thing that'll be dealtwith on appeal, which will be overturned

(01:54:36):
on appeal if he is convicted.God bless you, Christopher, my brother
brother. Thank you. Talk toyou on Monday. Man, Thank you

(01:55:48):
Sharon Coolige from the Cincinnian Enquirer joinsthe program, talk about local matters because
at least she's paying attention to them. Sharon Coleidge, you'll find her online
Cincinnati dot com. That's the Enquirer'swebsite. I have a subscription and I
check it out every single day.Sharon, it's good to have you back
on the morning show. Good morning. I thought the budget was dire,

(01:56:09):
as you write in the UH andyou're reporting on this since any budget issues
of this since an when they wereselling the Southern Railway where they pushed that
after have Purvall called the city's boutlook dire. We've have a problem.
They predicted more than twenty million dollarsdeficit next year's budget. Oh my god,
we're all gonna die gloom and doom, sell the railroad. But oh

(01:56:30):
lo and behold. They roll outthe twenty twenty five fiscal year budget,
which was released last Friday, asyou report an eight percent increase in the
general fund up to five hundred andseventy million dollars. What happened to Dyer?
Sharon Well, I've learned over along period of time, politicians wyre
just before, just before it's timeto release it. And honestly, any

(01:56:56):
good kind of predictor or city manageralways gives the worst case scenario because then
they look like the hero and theyswoop in. So I've learned that there's
usually not it's not as bad aseveryone says, But that has really in
recent years become it's on an asneeded basis. Are we, you know,
on a commercial, you know,touting Cincinnati, Well, everything's amazing.

(01:57:18):
Are we trying to sell a railroadIt's horrible. It just it just
depends on the situation, whether it'sdire or not. And when we released
this budget on Friday, when theybrought it forward in a press conference the
day before holiday weekend at eleven am, everything was great. Yeah, well,
I know it's great for a citymanager Cheryl Long, who's going to

(01:57:40):
get a five percent raise up tothree and ten and forty one dollars a
year. Not bad. Hmmm,that's part of the budget that was rolled
out, So I guess she's kindof pleased to would say a lot of
I do have a lot of textssaying, well, I would love a
raise like that. Yeah, youknow, people being smart, people being
snarky. Well, I mean,I mean it's up to council. Council

(01:58:01):
has to give it, they haveto talk about it, they have to.
They did give her a review.Liz Keating kind of headed that up.
I kind of have to go backthrough that and really look at what
was said because I said that,you know, that's the one thing.
When that was all happening, somethingelse was happening, And I was like,
well, if they tried, theyyou know, proposed giving her a
raise, I'll look at it.Then this is then for me and I'm

(01:58:23):
not there yet. Well, okay, that's five percent, but as you
reported, many of the employees aregoing to get a three percent raise,
slightly less than five but only twopercent for police and fire employees. Hmmm.
In a time when we need morepolice than we then people are willing
to sign up for the job.We're desperately low on numbers, and you
can't get anybody to sign up togo to the police academy. How about

(01:58:45):
a bigger increase for police, iffor no other reason then to draw more
people into law enforcement. I willsay so this, I directly asked a
question, is this a negotiating tactic? And she said, you said it,
not me in the midst negotiation pleaseand buyer in the midst negotiating their
new contracts, and it's the kindof mediation phase they're not really like on

(01:59:10):
the same page. Do I thinkit's going to be two percent? No,
I do actually think it's going tohave to probably be a lot more.
So, Really, my question Iasked the wrong question, Like I
asked, was it I kind ofknew the answer to the question I was
asking. But the real question isif they have you know, what has
to happen is it has to beparody, right, It's it's less about

(01:59:32):
them in a you know, siloand more or what are they paying in
Claremont, what are they paying overin Harrison or nor what or what are
they Because we don't want to loseour officers and we don't want some of
them. We have to get themright, right, So those reasons could
be five percent, six percent,and those just doesn't really account for that.
It just says two percent. AndI don't I just I don't know.

(01:59:56):
It just didn't It wasn't a goodlook. I appreciate that fully,
Sharon. And you know the otherthing is we have to I mean,
it's it tends to be somewhat ofan Apple's and Oranges comparison, unless you
are comparing cities with similar problems crimerates, violence toward police, or otherwise
the amount of calls, et cetera. I mean, that should be a
large determining factor in terms of howmuch you pay a police officer if his

(02:00:19):
or her life is going to beon the line because some city or municipality
has a much higher crime rate,you're gonna have to pay more for officers
to want to even serve there.So and we do have a crime problem
in the city of Cincinnati, atleast that's what's been reported. Yes,
and you know I did this.I didn't put this number in the story

(02:00:39):
and I should have with a soFriday before holiday weekend, you know,
our sworn compliment one fifty nine officersare very close to that member they're around
in nine seventeen. Now there's tworecruit class slated for this budget, like
fifty each. But that's you alsohave to take into anyone who's going to
retire this year. That seemed lowto me, like these are like pre

(02:01:04):
when John Cranley was really starting outand it was like, we have to
get back to basic services. Wehad been so far behind. We just
hadn't have recruit what was you know, the recession in everything was I'm not
placing blame, but we hadn't hadrecruit classes in a long time when John
came, and that was that's alsoa concern. And the number and the
fire numbers are low too. Andwhen you look at fire you can kind

(02:01:28):
of deploy police officers in their carand say there's not enough of them,
but you have to have the firefightersat each station. When John Cranley came
into office, the city was ata point where they were having grown outs,
which means certain firehouses had to closebecause you didn't have enough officers here
or there. I'm sorry, isa citizen you want every firehouse open because

(02:01:53):
if there's a fire in your house, you want the closest fire company not
to come. Not oopsie, thatone's closed today, next closest fire you
know. Trust, That's not howyou want to run your city. So
there's a lot here, uh withpublic safety. Well, and I also
understand that this is the twenty ninemillion dollars we got from the since A

(02:02:15):
Southern Railway Board. That's the lastof the least payments, right, and
then next year they're going to starttapping into the money earned from the one
point six billion dollars that's in trust. So uh, they did so technically
we got thirty six million. That'sthe last of the money from the old
system. They did say, we'refive million in the hole. They overspent

(02:02:36):
capital last year by five million.I'm guessing somebody said to themselves, hey,
it's a huge one of money cominglater. It'll all be fine,
right. It's like, oh,it's like your inheritance, right, it'll
be fine later. We'll just keepspending this year. So they're five million
behind. So they did slate fortwenty nine They did responsibly. They were

(02:02:57):
very clear that this is a structurallybalanced budget, so they did the twenty
nine million. So it's kind oflike this is what they always do kind
of projects. It's a little bitmore actually, because usually it's like twenty
six million. But next year's theyear we're going to start watching is it
falling to see on track? Whatdo these projects look like? This is

(02:03:18):
a big planning year for them.I have to say, well, keep
an eye on that, because youhave to have projects there are shovel ready
for next year, not to shovealready, but existing infrastructure too. That
was the promise made to the voterswhen they approved the sale of the railway.
But this would not go to like, for example, a new streetcar,
unless, of course, they orWill and Minister of Truth change what

(02:03:39):
existing infrastructure means to include a newleg of an existing streetcar line. I
mean, you know that you're goingto pay really close attention to where that
money is allocated. Although I stillsay money's fungible, and the money that
comes from the railroad earnings can beput in a big pile and you can
say that no, no, no, that's just going to existing infrastructure.
But that payment frees up other Ineed to go elsewhere. So whatever,

(02:04:01):
But can I ask you a specificWe'll say something. Well, I was
going to say this because your audiencesomething that was not in the story.
The streetcar does cost six million dollarsa year to run, and that's pretty
much operating money. And you knowthat is whatever, whether you know we
have it now, there's like youknow it's happening, but it was supposed

(02:04:24):
to pay for itself. Yeah,there's no name sponsor for it, even
though it's super popular. I'm sureyou've heard this on social media. Oh
there's no name sponsor. What's upwith advertising? So in a general fund,
it really does. That's what itcosts, and it's a lot of
city money is paying to run thestreetcar. Now, Yeah, it's a
black hole and we can't climb outof because it's built and it's got to

(02:04:44):
be paid for or they have tomothball, which you're still going to have
the debt service payments on it regardless. So I guess we can go back
to the initial comment about being solda bill of goods, or as I
characterize it, being lied to bypoliticians anyway, won't ask for that,
no reference in your article. Andthis isn't criticism, but my understanding is
we have a massive pension problem needsto be dealt with. How much money
in the budget's going to close thatgap? You know what, I forget

(02:05:09):
what the actual number it is.It is more than normal, though,
which is I have to say,I think it's like nine million more than
normal. That is a nod thatthe pension does need some help, which
is something the Futurist Commission really focusedon and we're still waiting for the city
to come back with this report ona report, you know how many of
these things are vehnable. I circledthat. I wrote that down those very

(02:05:33):
words the report on the report we'rewaiting for, which cost money that came
Well, you know the administration isdoing it. But you know, I
really as someone who you know,there's not enough reporters. I'm not talking
out of school. I don't haveeveryone known, right, but I was
thinking when they ordered that report,you know, really back in sixty days.

(02:05:55):
I know that for a fact they'reworking on it. They're in the
midst of connected communities. They're unrollingthe budget, which is the biggest time
for the city administration to do allof this because councils kind of have a
bunch of questions, there'll be somechanges. This is their busiest time and
they're you know, kind of screwingaround trying to get a report. It
seems like they're going to break inlike mid June. They're supposed to pass

(02:06:17):
the budget June twelfth, even thoughthey have till June thirtieth, which is
the shorter wa I take all thetime to get citizens, time to comment
and certainize it, and way inas you wrote, Sharon, I want
you to connect our communities is nextweek? I know, well, next
week we're going to see that comeforward and it's going to be like what
budget. And the week after thatit's going to be like there's a budgeteering

(02:06:39):
and we're passing the budget. Sothat's the next weren't a shortened week,
It's already Wednesday. I also wrotesteamroll the on my notes here as well,
Sharon, I want to well,I got so many more I can
hear about. Then you can seemine. Sharon hold, I want to

you know, not address them.So can can can you stay for

five krc issues facing our Jeff Heytwenty fifty five KRCD talk station. We
went from dire to an increase inthe Cincinnai City General Fund budget. Gone
over this with Sharon Collig from theCincinni Inquirer Again, Cincinnati dot Com is

(02:08:30):
where you find the Inquirer online.So at the Futures Commission, they issued
their report saying basically, sell everythingthat we isn't nailed down. Some of
the things that are nailed down,raised taxes and fixed the pension. So
we have that now. So they'redoing an analysis a report on that report
to figure out, I guess whatcan work and what might not work.
We have the Connected Communities Plan,which is going to get rid of single

(02:08:54):
family zoning across the board. Wehad Todd Zinzer on the program last week
to talk about that. A betteridea he suggested, would you know,
let one of the communities that wantsto change those owning lass start first and
see what happens. Rather than jammingthis down everybody's throat. People are up
in arms on that the details notreally fully known by the general population.
The Greater Cincinnatira who will be impactedby it. So that's coming fast and

(02:09:16):
furious. You mentioned the budget.They're going to try to pass that on
June twelfth. The deadline's June thirtieth, limiting the amount of time that the
public has to even comment on it. Sounds like a railroad job here,
not to no pun intended, regardless, since the springs in part from the
railroad. So all of that spells, you know, of a big red
flag and a warning sign for me. But then more parking under your heading,

(02:09:39):
more parking tickets. Let me quoteyou, Sharon Coolidge, the city
is looking for ways to increase revenuein an effort not to be so reliant
on the income tax. Is thatto suggest, Sharon, that people are
moving out of the city and it'sno longer a reliable source of revenue for
the city. We actually know peopleare moving into the city. Population we

(02:10:03):
did here last week. It grewjust a little bit more incrementally does keep
growing. But it's the remote work. It's people you know, like me
who live in el High and youknow, I'm just I'm part time.
I kind of float around and soI don't there's not that income tax.

(02:10:24):
Right for five days a week andthere's a lot of companies that aren't back,
and so they really are trying tofind ways to you know, other
revenue, which the budget directors,as long as I've covered budgets ever,
has always been like, this isa bad plan we should be relying on
that. Every every budget director I'veever seen in Cincinnati has started their little

(02:10:46):
spiel with we shouldn't be so relianton this, and then no one has
really ever listed. But they doseem to be taking this more serious now
with trying to find other revenue.Now, I have written a lot about
parking. We care very much aboutparking in Cincinnati. I don't know why,
it's it's the thing. When myeditor came, he's like, there's
like a lot of parking around afterCincinnati and there's just stories and he's like,

(02:11:07):
you're right about parking all the time. I'm like, I know,
people love it. We don't liketo walk far here, but anyway,
so, but the best parking isnot a revenue driver. The best parking
is in and out to support yourbusinesses. What is the best parking plan

(02:11:28):
so you know people, so businessescan thrive and it's turnover and of course
there are our meters and everything.But I think, and this does need
a deep dive by myself. Itdoes seem to me. I do see
the parking enforcement officers, but itseemed we have less now than we did

(02:11:48):
kind of pre pandemic like this kindof it's really fallen off. I think,
well, the enforcement of parking regulationsand giving tickets for people who are
illegally parked. I mean, Imean, there are fewer police officers on
the road issuing speeding tickets during COVIDtoo, but then again they all came
back, so I guess I justhave to wonder out loud. I mean,

(02:12:09):
how much revenue can you really getoff of issuing parking tickets? And
the grand scheme of thing is that? Like, is that the solution to
the revenue problems plaguing in the cityof Cincinnati. I mean, it seems
sort of pathetic if you're going torely on issuing tickets to generate enough revenue
to run a city. It seemsvery a little bit here, a little
bit there. Other things that arehappening not necessarily in the budget. Is

(02:12:31):
they're really pursuing more money from tickettax, like the ticket master not paying
the taxes they're supposed to pay onthe resale market when they kind of buy
up all the tickets. So there'slike there's a plan to do that.
There's a you know, the EMSbilling is, you know, they don't
really do what they're supposed to bedoing for collecting people who take the ambulances

(02:12:52):
in the city, and they completelyare revamping that program to so be paid
what they're supposed to be paid forall of that. Yeah, enforcing what
they're obligating, enforcing what they're obligatedto do under the current situation. So
the city's let that lax. They'rejust going to start going through the enforcement
mechanisms. It's like going after appetencyabsentee landlord. You can need to let
it go in the problem festers,or you start cracking down in a hope

(02:13:15):
to fix it. And I alsosee before we part company, Sharon Coolige,
and I certainly appreciate your time yourwork on this. They're setting aside
money for an arena study. Afterthat, Parwell asked out loud, does
Cincinnati need a new arena? Andwho would pay for it? To actually
quite legitimate questions, and I wouldeven call them rhetorical well, I don't
think that the mayor, he hassaid things. I'm not sure this is

(02:13:39):
on his list of priority good Andthe question really is how is it going
to be paid for? Because certainlypeople in our tourism we do need a
new arena. I don't really thinkthere's but it is how are we going
to pay for it? You knowwhat the best thing about the city and
the county setting aside money for thearena study, it becomes a public record
because the chamber is leading it up. Mber's businesses, the chambers business and

(02:14:01):
you know, so there's a lotof things when that happened that become private.
But like just like the Futurist Commissionwhen the citizens, because that costs
two million dollars, one million fromthe public, one million from the business
community. When there's public money insomething, it does become a public record.
Yeah. So and that early earlyin the banks, that was the

(02:14:22):
people got the public money to openthe first kind of iteration of the banks.
That's why all of that was inthe turnover and everything that was happening
was very public because there was publicmoney in those early iterations. And now
they're like private businesses. They've soldand they you don't really know what's coming
and going and what's really happening becausethey're just businesses, which is I appreciate

(02:14:45):
that understood since an inquire Cincinnati dotcom is where you find Sharon. Sharon,
I appreciate you staying up on this, and you're right there's a paucity
of local reporting, so my listeningaudience is happy you're out there keeping tabs

any event, it's that time ofweek, and I'm blessed and my listeners
are blessed to have judge Ednapoloton andjoin the program in the name of supporting
the Constitution. He and I Ithink are am I listening some of the
few people who actually understand read itand recognize unconstitutional laws in edicts and mandates
when we see them. And that'sthe subject matter of his column, which

(02:18:28):
comes out tonight, American caesar andconstitutional indifference. This enjoys bipartisan support,
trampling on the Constitution, your honor, Yes, it sure does. I
was intrigued by an article in theEconomist magazine which candidly was aimed at Donald
Trump, but asking if the UnitedStates is dictator proof, And it just

(02:18:52):
started the wheels churning in my head, and all these horrible historical anomalies came
to mind, and I thought I'dwrit a piece about it. I don't
think we are a dictator proof.I think Congress is willing either to give
president's extraordinary unconstitutional power, much ofwhich I've outlined in the Peace, or

(02:19:13):
to look the other way when presidentsdo things that are clearly unconstitutional. I
remember interviewing Hotam Congressman Charlie wrangle realcharacter the very weak, that Barack Obama,
who was in Brazil at the time, announced that the United States was

(02:19:37):
bombing Libya because Missus Clinton had persuadedthem him that Kaddafi had to go.
And I looked at Wrangell and Isaid, shouldn't Congress declare war before we
bomb another country? And he basicallysaid, look, this is a win
win for us if Kadaffi goes,we got rid of him. If this
thing explodes, the blood is notin our hands, it's on the president's

(02:20:01):
hands. I said, what aboutthe Constitution. Oh, well, you
know, the Constitution's sort of aguideline. No, it's not a guideline.
It's the supreme law of the land. It restrains the government, it
restrains the president. It tells whatCongress can do and what the President can
do. That's an example of theattitude of most members of Congress. They

(02:20:22):
will do whatever they think they canget away with politically. Well, in
my comment back to you, andis one that we have talked about a
lot. It's one of the moredifficult components of you know, getting through
law school and understanding the complexity ofthe law is the idea of standing standing
to challenge the constitutionality of any oneof these unconstitutional actions. You mean,

(02:20:43):
you mentioned the establishment of the NationalBank in the United States, the Insurrection
Act, Alien Sedition Act, justamong some of the earliest examples of things
that fly in the face of theConstitution and its limitations if someone was in
a position to challenge it. Imean, how many times have we talked
about the NSA spying on people.We don't know about it. We don't
know that there are violations of law. Our civil rights violations have happened.

(02:21:05):
So we can't go in and individuallycertain a cause of action because we haven't
been individually harmed. It's crazy.So Madison and the other founders were afraid
of an all powerful judiciary that wouldjust look at the government and say,
well, that's unconstitutional. That's unconstitutional, that's unconstitutional, So they put the

(02:21:28):
case or controversy requirement in there.The courts can only hear real cases or
controversies, and you can only commencea case if you have some harm unique
to you. If it's a harmcommon to everybody, like taxes are too
high, or we're all being spiedon, or the president is fighting an
illegal war using our tax dollars ormoney barred in our name, the courts

(02:21:52):
would say the remedy for this ispolitical. The remedy is to vote out
of office the people that are doingthis. Only when harm is unique to
you, do you have the standingto sue. So, But if you
were injured in the war, ifthe spying produced evidence that the government tried
to use against you in a criminalprosecution. Something unique like that would give

(02:22:16):
you the standing to a challenge it. Otherwise, these presidents can get away
with almost anything they want. Quitefrankly, when I was doing the research,
I was scratching my head. JoeBiden declared a as a state of
emergency the fact that there are unpaidstudent loans I know, and used what

(02:22:39):
he claimed were emergency powers to forgivethose loans. Now, when he forgives
the loans, that means the federalgovernment is paying them. The bank's not
going to lose the money. Thetaxpayers are. And he did that in
defiance of the Constitution, which saidonly Congress can do it. George Bush
did the same thing when he orderedthe NSA to spy and everybody without search

(02:23:01):
warrants, claiming it was an emergency. After nine to eleven, Donald Trump
claimed it was an emergency at theTexas border and he could build the wall
even though Congress refused to fund it. I mean, how much can presidents
get away with. You may likethe idea of the wall, You may
want the president to forgive student loans, but the Constitution is very clear no

(02:23:24):
money shall be spent except that whichis appropriated by Congress and recruited in a
public ledger. That doesn't happen anymore, even though it's there in the Constitution
and they've all sworn an oath topreserve, protect, and defend it.
Well, and you know, theidea of being able to vote folks out
of the office. The political remedyabout which you spoke is kind of turned
on its head when it's not thepresident or an elected representative or senator that's

(02:23:48):
doing it, but when it's theadministrative state that's doing it and violating our
civil rights. I mean, wecan't get rid of the people who head
up the Department of Justice or FBI. They're not elected officials, they're appointed,
and yet we find out they're theones quite often well not applying the
wall the law equally among matters andviolating our First Amendment, our Fourth Amendment's

(02:24:09):
rights by you know, going intosocial media companies and suppressing speech or looking
at our effects and papers. Youknow, Joe Biden didn't rifle through your
effects and papers, but you know, darn well the NSA probably did,
and the FBI may have well havedone that. We're left without any remedy
we are, and they both workfor him. I mean, he could
stop the spying, just like hecould stop the war and Guza, just

(02:24:33):
like he could stop the war inUkraine. He could stop all that stuff
with a phone call. But hedoesn't. And the courts would say,
well, your remedy is to votehim out of office. I mean that
is not easily done. It maybe easily done in the case of Biden,
who's now in his last year ofhis first and probably only term in

(02:24:54):
office. But the harm that canbe done between the time they start doing
these things and the opportunity to votethem out of office can be irreparable.
There should be some mechanism for exposingall of this stuff well, and there
should be. There should be aremedy for this indifferent Oh well, we'll

(02:25:16):
look the other way. And ifGaddafi goes, that's a good thing.
And if this blows up, it'llblow up in Obama's face, not in
Congress's face, because we had nothingto do with it. That is just
a rejection. Much as I likedhim the congressman, he came on the
show a lot, that is justa rejection of your duty of office.

(02:25:37):
It is, And how many differentadministrations have we seen since let's say the
seventeen ninety one when the Congress enactedthe National Bank of the United States.
If that was unconstitutional, then peoplehave since changed their representative, senators and
presidents multiple times with different parties incontrol, and not one of them has
lifted a finger to undo the realityof something that was unconstitutional from the get

(02:25:58):
go, correct with no remedy.Correct correct, And the Insurrection Act,
which George Washington once actually used.He actually got on horseback and led a
pack of soldiers to suppress the WhiskeyRebellion in western Massachusetts where farmers were making

(02:26:22):
whiskey and refusing to pay a federaltax. Today, Donald Trump or Joe
Biden, or whoever it might beable, just call up the head of
the FBI and say, you know, send a thousand FBI agents to silence
Brian and the judge. It's crazyagain, no remedy whatsoever. And to

(02:26:45):
know that every single one of them, and I always think of this,
mostly because it's the most stark exampleof their lack of concern, care,
or reverence for the Constitution. Everyone of them holds their hand up and
swear an oath to uphold the Constitution, and then tomorrow they'll wake up and
they'll start figuring out a way totake away our Second Amendment rights to keep

(02:27:07):
in bear arms almost without a bump. And if you ask them the question
as well, it's in the nameof safety, and that quite often is
the default answer. Well, weneed to be able to spy on people
because there are evil people in theworld, and we need to be able
to try to predict and prevent crimes. Well, does that justify trampling our
Fourth Amendment rights? They say so, it's political expedients. Correct. Correct,

(02:27:28):
they will do whatever they think theycan get away with and whatever we'll
get them re elected. That's allThey're concerned with political popularity and staying in
office. Fidelity of the Constitution isway down on their list. Well,
I'm glad you're there to defend it, and I'm glad you are there to
support at least my perception that theConstitution actually means something something and it is
