10-23-24 Bill Cunningham Show

again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And first of all, before I get into specifics, there's been a report circulating the last couple of years that somehow crime rates are down, that somehow there's less crime than there has been before. And then the FBI revised an extent at their remarks about two weeks ago and said, actually that's not the case. We missed about four thousand murders, and we missed about eighteen thousand robberies, we missed thirty five thousand sexual assaults,

so we've updated the numbers. In fact, the crime rate is up. Now, when your neighbor is out of work, that's kind of a recession. When you're out of work, it's a depression. So I care more about Hamblon County than I do about the nation. You've been in law enforcement directly and in directly for more than three decades, and what is your sense of the crime rate in Cincinnati and Hamilton County is going up, going down, or staying about the same.

you crime is too high. Or I'm meeting with mothers of murdered children. They're going to say the crime rate is too high. So as far as this is the actual statistics, I would say we have too much. We have problems in Cincinnati that we need to address, and we want to make sure that everybody in our community feels safe.

And Mark Crumbine, who's one of the legal eagles on Channel nineteen, was one of the defense attorneys, and I can recall having on the witnesses in that case about Jeffrey Woganstall and went on and on and on, and now here we are more than thirty thirty three years later and he's filed repeat it motions for a new trial. He claims the body was dumped in Ohio. He says, not in Indiana, and that Judge Jenkins is a new judge on the bench. It's got to be busy with

current cases. But your office is trying to defend the criminal conviction to Jeffrey Woganenstall for killing this girl, molesting her, and then killing her. And one of his pubic hairs was found in her underwear, which I guess is evidence of something, but nonetheless one of the allegations of the defense.

Currently here we are in twenty twenty four, we're talking about events that took place more than thirty years ago, was that the discovery rules have changed, that those Brady violations that your predecessor in title as the Prosecutor's Office, it might have been Artiney or Joe Dieters did not give all the evidence to Jeffrey Wroganstall that could have

exonerated him. Can you explain, just in general, whether it's the l Rod case out of Blue Ash or Jeffrey Wogenstall, what has changed the past thirty to thirty five years as far as what your office has to give the defense.

on the merits for the new trial. But as you point out, all of these cases that have been going back since I've been in the office, the cases were tried twenty thirty fifteen years ago before I was ever in charge of the office. So s number one, number two,

it's not really being fairly reported by the media. They're claiming that these convictions where a trial judge is granting the new trial has been overturned, and then the people are being exonerated, the defendants are being exonerated, and that's inaccurate. These are motions for new trial. There was a trial years and years ago. Whatever case we're talking about, twelve jurors found the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt made a conviction. The case was reviewed by the Court of Appeals, by

the Ohio Supreme Court, by the federal court. The Elwood case that you're speaking of. There eighteen different judges took a look at that case, found that there were no issues with either the evidence or did any air as far as the legality of that was done, and upheld the convictions. Years later, the cases with a brand new judge on the bench hearing emotion for new trial, is granting these motions on the basis that evidence was not

turned over, not provided to the other side during the trial. Now, all these issues were discussed throughout the appeals and had been ruled upon by the higher courts. None found that there were any air, But because the evidence rules have now changed, they're not the same evidence rules that they were thirty Excuse me, the discovery rules were changed. You didn't need to provide what was now the saying should been provided by the trial court judge. So that's where

we are. It puts US at a clear disadvantage. Nothing has been documented by say, computer systems, what was turned over or not turned over. Witnesses are dead, defense attorneys are dead, so we can't even find out for sure. So it puts the state at a clear disadvantage when we're at this point, that case is on appeal to

the higher Supreme Court. Now, whether or not that's inaccurate that the trial court judge appropriately granted a motion for new trial on the woven Stall case, as I said, that one's stipending as well, and that involves again some what they're claiming Brady violations, but again it involves discovery rules that are much different today than they were thirty

years ago. And is it quite? Is it fair? Is it the right thing that you can now evaluate a case after these rules have been changed when they were always these rules up until I don't recently really so? And then the matters of and will be pending before the Ohio Supreme court. We have twelve cases and at the criminal cases before the Hire Supreme Court. So that's

what's going on here. And as I said this, the prosecutor's state is a clear disadvantage in these matters because of evidence is lost, memories are faded, witnesses are dead, defense attorneys are dead, and so it's really hard to proceed sometimes and being able to present whether it has whether there will be a new trial, or whether you know this was accurately done by the trial court judge of brand new trial court judge looking at it for

the first time, right, who knows more, maybe than eighteen other judges. I don't know.

it going to stop? So the father of this little girl who was kidnapped and brutalized and sexualized and stabbed to death, body dumped that this goes on and on and on. And the defense attorney, one of them was Mark Crumbine, who fortunately is a good man still around, and he said justice was done, whatever that might be when he was convicted. And one of the arguments from Jeffrey Wogenstall was well, I didn't drop the body in Indiana. I put it in Ohio. So well, that's a distinction

without a difference. But the other thing is the Brady violation for those who may not know, and I think most people don't, provides discovery what the state's got to give the defense and if some piece of evidence was not given. The new liberal judges were saying, without violations, the whole conviction. They got the right guy. He murdered her, he sexually assaulted her, his pubic hare found inside her pant. He's a ten year old girl. But he's claiming, well,

all the evidence wasn't turned over. So even if this judge, Judge Jenkins, actually grants a new trial down the road at some point, it doesn't mean he didn't commit the crime. It means Judge by twenty twenty four standards on discovery that nineteen ninety one conviction should not have happened. And to me, I would hope these judges would move on and deal with more current cases because justice was done

with Edward Jones and done with Wiganstall. But nonetheless, so many commercials I'm seeing you run against against Connie Pillage, and Connie Pillach has never tried. Just go over the list of two or three things your opponent has not done as opposed to you, that's been there for thirty five years as a judge, as a prosecutor, and more. And now you're the Hamlet County selected prosecutor soon to be elected. Why is she uniquely unqualified to take over this office that you that you now hold.

back then. But what I can gather, I have one hundred and fifty thousand cases I either personally tried or I presided over. And you know, the other thing about her is that she let her law license lapse and she reinstated it in order to run for this office two years ago, and then still didn't pick up the case to say, yeah, I'm committed to doing the work

that needs to be done. So just think if you had to, if you have a family member or yourself you were a victim of a crime, would you want somebody like that trying your case or be responsible for your case? Or if you look at it this way from a medical point of view, you needed surgery, would you go to a surgeon that hasn't performed surgery in over twenty years, or that hasn't hasn't read a medical journal. I mean, I doubt she's even read any case law.

And case law, I mean is constantly changing. I've been reading case law it's almost every day of my entire career. But if not every day, I mean it's it's several times a week, you know, as it's being updated. Because the law is constantly changing. I just don't know how she even thinks that she can even do this job. I hear her talk about, well, it's just a leadership position. Well, no,

it's more than that. You know. I'm consulted along with my prosecuters on how charges in working with law enforcement, you know, you're you're advising them, is there enough evidence on a case of even bring charges? You know, so things like that that just really to me raises a lot of red flags as to what will happen if she's in charge. And then the other problem that we have is that she's beholden to the soft on crime. You know, she'll be basically a rubber stamp for that

radical agenda. I could see, you know, she's being supported by those the radicals out of New York that want to defund the police, not prosecute categories of crimes, decriminalizing offenses, ending our cash bond system. That's what keeps us safe. And I think in the end, if we have someone

like that in charge, our entire community will suffer. We have made so much progress in our beautiful city, in our county that to backside because we don't have safety that people that crime is too high that we need. You know, people aren't going to invest here, people won't move here, Everyone's going to be leaving, and so we'll be a shell of a city. And I just think Cincinnati Hamilton County were a special place. I grew up here, and I'm fighting every single day so that all of

us are safe. And I'm fighting to serve every person. I don't care where you live or who you are. I'm fighting for your safety and fighting to be a voice for victims of crime. You brought up the Woganstall family or the victims you know of the of the wogan Stall case. When is when thirty twenty years later, they still don't have finality. I mean, we're fighting to have that conviction to be final so that that family

has justice. It's so important that families have justice and accountability when someone does something as heinous as a her case or hurts a child. We want that. And I'm afraid that my opponent, if she gets in here, it won't be the same. It'll ruin our city and will be just like any other these cities with those policies that have been failed all around the around the country. And I'm also concerned because I am the last Republican in the as far as within the county, and then

we'll end up with one party rule. And if we have one party rule, the corruption that comes along with it. Nobody everything, nothing will be transparent to the community. Everything will be good, and no one will be shedding a light on when something is going wrong. I'm constantly voicing when at the courthouse. They want to keep these things quiet, and they only want to speak when it's on their there on their terms and in their agenda. But I speak out to make sure that the public, the voters

know who's keeping us safe and who is not. Uh And I think the people have a right to know that.

criminals or break in your home? Break in your car, steal money from your bank account, God forbid, rape or kill.

You want someone that knows what they're doing. And when Connie Pillage has not had a law license for some twenty years and has never prosecuted a case, and I speak to elements in the black community, leadership in the black community, and they don't like Connie Pillage, because the black leadership of this town is telling me when we're hurt, when this's is shooting at Walton Hills High School or there's some shooting in the West End, we know with

CPD and with Melissa Powers, we have someone who actually is competent that will prosecute the criminals to the fullest extent of the law. And that's what everybody wants when they're personally assaulted. And for this county to turn its back on law enforcement, turn it's back on prosecution. And when the office flips over, if it does the county Pillage, you have one hundred and fifty employees that have been built up over the years, career prosecutors ready to get

to work for the victims of crime. And she is likely to fire everybody and bring in social activists at have a different viewpoint on that. Really, I kind of see this as a I kind of see this as the breaking point in Hamletin County and the city of Cincinnati, and I just hope the suburbanites, especially in those who live in the city, understand what's at stake in this election.

Melissa Powers once again, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show, and good luck in your race, because your race is our race, and your failure will be the failure of citizens of Hamlin and County should it take place, and I do not believe it will. When I speak to Alex t and others, I know you're up in the polling, but that doesn't make a damn bit of difference. What's required is for the people to actually vote to keep law enforcement functioning in this county.

And Melissa Powers, once again, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. Good luck to you.

to taxes, nothing's more certain than taxes and death. And the plans of the Democrats are significantly different than the plans for the Republicans. The Republicans want to lower taxes to grow the economy, resulting in more revenue to the treasury. The Democrats want to increase taxes, which stops economic activity, which means less so you get punished and there's less

money to spend anyway. But until then, I had the pleasure last night of going to get together at the Phelps on Fourth Street to talk about brad Winstrop, who's leaving Congress after ten years, and also I spent some time again with Orlando Sanza. First of all, brad Winstrop is a great American. I used that term loosely, but when it comes to him, it's so accurate. In nineteen ninety eight, as a medical doctor, he decided to join the US Army and began as a low officer in

the providing medical care. Then when nine to eleven broke out, he found himself in Iraq at Abu Grab caring for patients of one type or another, including those terrorists who were wounded by Americans. It's part of our policy to nurse the terrorists back to good health, which I may have a concern with, but the US Army says to do it. So doctor brad Winstrop volunteered, served in war, came back and regan his law, and began his medical

practice again. And then he saw an opportunity to serve in the United States Congress, and he did that for ten years. And he said, right now, I have my beautiful wife, and we have two kids that are seven and ten years old, and I miss everything about them. I'm in Washington, I'm traveling. He's one of the leaders in the Congress because when he showed up, everyone quickly realized that brad winstrip was a warkhorse and not a show horse. So he shows up and he gets on

this committee, gets on that committee, the Key Committee. He's on his House Ways and Means, which is taxing, and on the Intelligence Committee, which has all this secret stuff. And he was disgusted by the conduct of many Democrats after secret briefings about whether it's COVID or about Iraq or other problems, that they quickly run out and talk about everything that was going on, which they shouldn't have done, and no one was held to account for that at all.

But I made the reference to the fact that bred Winstrip is the best among us. He put his life at risk, he forestalled any economic gain of being a a dietrist by going into the military, and then when nine to eleven happened, he was deployed, and he did it without acrimony. He did it because he loved the country, and they spent quite a bit of time there and came back and continued in the reserves. He retired about a year ago from the military twenty five years, quarter

of a century in the military. Retired as a full bird colonel in the military and with ten years of service. And he said, the best thing I'm going to do in the future is coach my daughter's fifth grade girls basketball team at Saint Gertrude's. And so at some point he went into the military for the right reasons, and he left the Congress for the right reasons. No one chased him out. He could have stayed in Congress in the second Congressional District as long as he wanted to,

but his family called it. And I know what it must be like for a young father to have a couple kids that Daddy, where you going Monday morning? He'd fly off to Washington, come back Friday, and then maybe spend the weekend in Utah, and then spend the weekend in Wisconsin and go back to Florida. And he said, at some point, I have to take care of take care of my family. So he went to the military for the right reasons, which is because he loved it.

He went into the Congress for the right reasons to serve. He served his ten years as a soldier patriot, and then after ten years he said, I have to spend more time with my wife and family. He went into Congress for the right reasons, and he left for the right reasons. And it's sad that he has to do that, But as a husband and a father, I get it. Number one in your life's got to be God. Number two has got to be country and righte with it

his family, and he served all so well. And he made the rather interesting comment that I've heard a voice by many others. You don't see too many individuals flying Kamala Harris flags next to the American flag. When you see a Kamala Harris is normally somebody protesting about something,

normally abortion or transgender rights, whatever it might be. You'll see a lot of flags in the red areas of the world, not too many flags in the blue areas, because many Democrats have an ill feeling about our country and its place in the world. But I want to just remark that brad winstrip is leaving office in about three or four months. I'm sure we'll have a capable replacement.

Haven't met him yet, but we'll see what happens. But it's just wonderful to be with a guy that sacrificed life and limb to serve the country, and then, instead of taking the big riches of a pediatrist and a medical doctor, decided to go into the Congress where you make one hundred and eighty thousand dollars a year and I have to have two homes, and you're trying to raise a relatively young family seven and ten year old girls. And what do you do, Daddy? Why can't you be

at my soccer game? Daddy can you come with me and watch me do something in the art world. I can't do that. I got to be in Washington. And so it's sad people like that are kind of told by the circumstances that you got to go because faith and family to presidents over the service in the Congress. But I want to tip the counts cap to brad Winstrop at what he's done. And I was sure his replacement. I'll get him on at some point. But those are

some huge shoes to fill. But congratulations to brad Winstrop on a life well led. Secondly, I met again Orlando Sanza and the name is almost unforgettable. Orlando Sanza family are Filipino refugees who came here and Orlando Sanza got to work. He went to West Point, graduated sir four years in the military, attaining the rank of captain from West Point, and still is in the military. And he's running for political office, almost walking in the shoes of

Colonel brad Winstrop, and he's running against Greg Lansman. And break it down this way. Greg Lansman is a creature of Cincinnati City Council. He's a liberal Democrat who voted repeatedly with Nancy Pelosi over ninety nine percent of the time. Ninety nine percent of the time Greg Lansman voted with Nancy Pelosi. One of his campaign issues was and his about congressmen showing their stock trades, whatever that might be,

so people are informed about who's making money. Well, he himself was discovered did not inform the public that he had a stock trade he made lots of money from for nine months, So we now know why he wanted to inoculate himself against charges that he profited at the public trough when it comes to insider information. But Greg Lansman did that much like Nancy Pelosi, who's made hundreds of millions of dollars and it's a better trading record

than Warren Buffett. And Democrats and Republicans have insider information that many use for personal benefit, and one of them is Greg Lansman. So just breaking it down, if you think city council is well run, he's a creature of city council. He's a liberal Democrat who thinks abortion as a sacrament. He believes there should be no restriction on abortion, which means in the sixth or seventh or eighth month unborn babies can be killed because the mother is having

one of those moments. And that also believes in all the transgender rights movement. He's Nancy Pelosi's So if you believe Nancy Pelosi is good for the country and her philosophy, if you think city council in the city is well run, Greg Lansman's a creature thereof then vote for Greg Lansman if you want to go in a new and a better course with an army captain from West Point. Got a great family. He's got three or four kids. They're darling and his wife is also a graduate of West Point.

How about that? And he's running for the first congressional seat and we'll see what happens there. But that's the way it is. Secondly, in the news, it's again about Rudolph Giuliani and his assets are being seized. He has some huge judgment, a defamation judgment. I didn't hear the real number. It's one or two hundred million dollar dollars against two campaign workers and honestly, Rudolph Giuliani said things about them that were not true. So the issue becomes, Okay,

how much have you been punished? How much have you been hurt by illegal words said about you by Rudolph Giuliani. If somebody has said, well, my character is worth a half a million or a milliona or maybe five million dollars, okay, But the judgment against them was north of one hundred million dollars for a defamation of someone's character. And it brought to mind the number of people who have been who have been for years and years and years thinking

about entering public service. Normally, when one administration leaves, another

one comes in, it's a new slate. God knows that when Bush forty three, Bush forty three took over from the Clintons, there were hundreds or thousands of crimes committed by a dozen of people and the Clinton administration repeatedly, including Bill Clinton lying under oath to a federal judge twice, including all the conspiracies involving the women, and including using government offices in order to stash girlfriends and no show

big jobs. Bill Clinton did that repeatedly. And there was a quick little question to the Bush forty three if you thought about impaneling a grand jury and going after all the sins and crimes of the Clinton administration for those eight years and he said, look, it's a new slate. We got to move on, and he let it all go.

When Donald Trump took over in twenty seventeen, it was obvious that Obama and Biden and dozens of others by the standard of the Democrat Party, committed numerous felonies in office for various things that the executive did, the Vice president did, cabinet officers did, about lying, not telling the truth, secreting evidence, and what Trump said at that point, you know what, it's time to move on. It's a new

day or not. It was almost an unwritten rule that when one administration came in that you would not go the other direction and go back in time and indict and put under oath and find perjury charges against the previous administration, because, let's face it, that's not the way

things work in this country. Everyone, my god. When Nixon took over from LBJ, could Nixon administration and then paneled grand juries in various cities and put people into the hot white lamps under oath about the Vietnam War and who said what to who? Absolutely, and LBJ and all those around him would have gone to prison. But Democrats and Republicans said, you know what we can't do that. Something changed in twenty twenty and that is there was a fear that Donald Trump would come back in twenty

twenty four and seize the presidency again. And so what happened with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and others. They developed a campaign to go after Donald Trump and all of his alcoholites, to pin them down, to bankrupt them all, and to make sure that Donald Trump would be so smeared he couldn't be a candidate in twenty twenty four. If the Trumpster had said, I'm done with politics, I'm going back tomorrow Lago. I got a great life and great businesses. I have great kids and grandkids. I want

to live my private life. Well, none of this crap would have happened. But the Democrats in Washington, d C. In New York City, and in Atlanta and came out a week ago that Nathan Wade, the lover of Fanny Willis in Atlanta, coordinated indictments against various elements of the Trump administration through the Office of Counsel in the White House.

Listen up, Nathan Wade, the boyfriend of Fanny Willis, met repeatedly with White House counsel the conjure up ways of indicting Donald Trump and other accolades those around Donald Trump. Some fourteen other people along with New York City New York City Prosecutor concocted this scheme to tie down Donald Trump and those around him through the number three in command of the US Department of Justice, who goes to New York City to coordinate the indictments, the indictments of

Donald Trump and his friends and family. I have a brief list. This has never happened before in American politics, but the Democrats have done it, and now they're saying, well, donald Trump wants to weaponize the Department of Justice against his political enemies. That's exactly what the Democrats have done to Donald Trump. So whatever the Democrats do, they blame the Republicans for engaging in their behavior. Just a brief list.

First of all, Donald Trump himself indict it in four different markets, all controlled by the Democrats, something in the range of sixty four counts carrying four hundred years in jail. They want to lock up Donald Trump himself. By the way, as Joe Biden said yesterday, yes we should lock up Donald Trump. That's sitting president of the United States. In addition to that, the list includes Steve Bannon, Trump's White House chief strategists four months in jail for not testifying

in Congress. Roger Stone got three and a half years in prison for allegedly obstructing a witness and part of a Democratic investigation. Paul Maniford sentenced to four years in prison, Elliot Brudy Trump's inaugural fundraising ad for lobbying wrongfully. George Papadopolis, Michael Flynn, Rick Gates, Rudy Giuliani, Michael Cohen, Alan Weiselberg, Peter Navarro, Richard Spencer, Mike Lindell, Enrique Terrio, Stuart Rhodes.

January sixth insurrectionists. Most should not have been charged. Some should have, of course, Mark Meadows, Sidney Powell, Kenneth Cheesebro, Gina Ellis, John Eastman, Jeffrey Clark, Christina bob On, and on and on. There's there's another whole page I won't get to. So the Democratic Party in Washington, in Atlanta, New York City decided, let's stop the next Trump administration by indicting bankrupting everyone around Donald Trump, so nobody to

go to work for him. And let's go after the head of the party itself, which is Donald Trump, indicting him, and all those indictments are now falling apart. That is, that is lawfare of the worst order. It's time to turn the page. And I hope Donald Trump, when he gets into power, which he will again, I'm confident he's going to win, will not do to the Democrats what the Democrats have done to him. I hope that's not the case, because, let's face it, once the page is turned,

it's time to move on. But the Democrats don't see it that way. They're serious about bankrupting everyone around Donald Trump by forcing them to pay millions of dollars in legal fees. And that's if they win. That's never happened before. And let's hope Donald Trump does not let it happen again. Let's continue. We never stop. We simply continue. And if you're a liberal Democrat, you think City Council is a great place to be. I think it's well run, that

Greg Lansman is your candidate. If you think a West Point graduate who served in the military who's a conservative Republican like Orlando Sanza makes more sense than vote for Sanza. Fortunately, for Orlando. He has the entire county of Warren in the first congressional district and also is Green Township. But Greg Lansman, this is a plus five Democratic district. That

means the Democrat is supposed to win. But I hope, we'll hope the voters look at Orlando Sanza's record, I look at Greg Lansman record and say, you know what, one represents my values and the other does not, and move on. Let's continue. Grover nor Quest for years has had a group named Americans for Tax Reform. After the News he's going to break down for you what the Democrats want to do with your taxes and what the Republicans want to do and which is a better approach.

Plus later on after two o'clock is Genie Schmidt, who is going to break down constitutional issue number one. And also later on is Jeff Birding, the CEO of your FC Cincinnati and more. Twelve fifty six Home, Your Reds and the Bengals News Radio, seven hundred Wow. Bill Cunningham, the Great American. Of course, Grover Norquist has been there for decades about tax reform. Heads up. The Group of Americans for Tax Reform have the website up now there's

about policy, areas, commentary, and more. Donate and Grover Norquist, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And first of all, Grover, tell the American people what the recent Gallup polls indicated about the tax policies of both Kamala Harris and also Donald Trump.

the last seple weeks. So it is very interesting because on an issue that is completely black and white, you know, you know, clear where the American people are, the two parties and the two candidates are going in completely different directions. They are not, you know, on some issues that are popular. Both candidates for the House of the Senate, the President will tell you they think the same thing, even if it's not entirely true. But here Kamala Harris has said

a lot more taxes and she has listed them. And Trump has said I want only lower taxes, and he's listed those.

It's almost like a punishment that if someone succeeds, we want to punish them. So even though a lower tax rate produces more revenue, Democrats don't like that anyway, correct.

her head the number four hundred thousand dollars. And Biden says this, of course again, which is a lie, that no one's going to be taxed. If you make four hundred thousand dollars or less, you're not going to have your taxes go up at all, go up. If you make less, your taxes are going to go down or not go up whatsoever. Why is that wrong? Why does that make no sense? Grover Norquiest.

I don't mean you, just these other people. But in point in fact, the first tax that Obama put On was on cigarette smokers average income thirty five thousand dollars a year. He wanted the money. He doesn't care whether you're addicted to something. He wants that's four people. He wants to cash. He wants to tax energy, and so they say that. Of course, one of the things Biden did. He said four hundred thousand dollars. Kamala Harris says four

hundred thousand dollars. But since those two have been in office, that four hundred thousand, because of inflation, is only really worth three hundred and thirty thousand in.

percent of everything they do is wages. So if you're going to tell you you're missing a million dollars. Seventy percent of that's coming from wages, so that tax directly hits middle income people. Here's what Kamala Harris wants to do. She wants to get rid of all the Trump tax cuts. Okay, we'd raise everyone's income tax rate everyone. She wants to take the corporate rate up thirty three percent, higher than China, Okay, higher than everybody in Europe, and then she wants to

take the personal income tax for everybody higher. She wants to take the Capitol Games tax up to two point thirty three percent, which is higher than China is, of course, almost twice as high as China's talking about competitors and Mick shooting ourselves in the foot when we do this, But that's the capital Games tax, as high as it was under Jimmy Carter when everything went to hades, and even the Democrats agreed to pull that down. She wants to impose a second death tax in order to catch

all the inflation during your lifetime. But I don't know why they figured on that one, but that makes some sense given how they've operated a carbon tax, of course, raising the price of energy gasoline, many ulti.

States as a result of that. Ed will again Trump, lets take the twenty one percent corporate down to fifteen. That will bring even more money into invest in the United States. And Europe doesn't want that at all. So they want to have a deal where we all agree not to compete by making our.

in Beijing controlling our tax code. That's not well covered in the media. Plus, I watched I watched one of the morning shows. Mark Cuban was there talking about unrealized capital gains and he made the point, well, that'll never happen. Then why does Kamal Ayers talk about taxing unrealized gains? Can you explain to the American people how that relates to them personally? Because everything that moves or regulates or is existing in existence that Democrats want to increase taxes,

what does it mean to tax unrealized capital gains? Break it down, Grover nor Quist for the American people.

do that. You can't raise the corporate rate because corporations paid no taxes. They simply pass on to the concerner or the costs of the tax in the form of higher prices. So we can't do that. Can't do this, can't do that game? Well, what if she does? What if the House and the Senate go democratic, which is fifty to fifty chance of might get rid of the filibuster. They can do anything they want to do. Why wouldn't she keep her promise?

They take just a later piece of it, but if you add it all up, it's seven hundred and fifty million dollars. It just disappears out of activity. That means whenever you're buying something, you use a credit card or whatever. There's a little thing. There's a little thing there. And by the way, you don't have to make fourundred thousand dollars to get nicked.

death pack, which will be when you die. Usually you could hand your house or a small business or your four to one k to your children, uh and they would accept it at the value at which when you passed. But they say no, no, no, no no. They have to pay capital gains on your house, on land, on a small business, on your four one k on your pension, all your lifetime, all the inflation that took place during that okay, all the capital game that happened. That gets

tasked first. Then they can have the body. Oh, by the way, and then they pay the normal death tacks. So the second death packs specifically hitting people who lived under Biden's inflation.

money in. And the socialists in Europe do not want that. Grover nor Quist, thanks again, but I can't let you go without saying once again, Ronald Reagan said it if it moves, tax it, if it keeps moving regulate it if it stops moving, subsidize it. And that's the inefficiencies of government. And once again, Americans for tax reform. The website is fabulous, all the information available, we get the

government we deserve. Grover nor Quist. At times that concerns me, but once again, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. Let's see what happens the fifth and Grover, you're a great American. Thank you very much.

simply want to punish achievers. And if you own a home and it's gone up one hundred thousand dollars in value, do you want to pay taxes on an unrealized gain. Democrats want to tax everything which hurts the American economic activity. Let's continue, Bill Cunningham, News Radio seven hundred. Wow.

preseason team. Ryan Conwell made the third team.

the last pick returner. The last Cincinnati returner to win Special Team Player of the Week was in twenty twelve, who do you think that.

that's the problem. The behavior of the parents and you can do whatever you want. And secondly, I don't think we need another football field in downtown. Taft High School is right there. Walnut Hills is close by other highs. The problem is not a facility. The problem is the behavior of the of the coaches to take guns to a nine year old football team.

a gun. This is on the field at Wanting Hills High School, which is a great facility as through turf, etc. And Reagan, who's been a pretty good guy, pulls out a gun and shoots two people and then claim self defense on a football field with a gun. What the hell are we talking about here? Collapse?

school grounds. But how in the hell, How in the hell can a principal provide alcohol to underage girls in your house? How does that work?

is not the facility. The problem is the behavior of the parents and the coaches. That's the problem. How do you solve that with a stadium?

One of our great state representatives from Clairemont County's Jennie Schmidt, representative of Janie Schmidt. Welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And first of all, can you and a capsule explain to the American people what is State Issue one and why Americans should vote know for that? Explain that to the American people first, very.

It creates a fifteen member book board that is accountable to no one. It has an unlimited paycheck, a wallet that the House will have to approve expenditures on. We don't even know what those expenditures are. And it basically will codify Jaron Mandry. And that's something that the US Supreme Court has said time and time again is illegal. Why we're doing this because the left doesn't like the

fact that we are a conservative state. Vote no on it because if it's a constitutional amendment, the legislature has no power to change it. Let me repeat that, if it is a constitutional amendment, the legislature has no power to change it.

going to be retired. Appellate judges will get together and decide five Republicans, five Democrats, five independents. Then they set the lines and we don't vote on those. On those individuals, those fifteen people are going to be academics and others, we don't vote. So for the Democrats to say this is about democracy, it's the opposite of democracy. It says that if you like to vote for the people or govern your life, then vote no. If you think some

other academic group should control your life, vote yes. And so, but the wording of the ballot as such that I've read it a couple of times. In the first sentence of what you're going to vote for it no reasonable person would vote yes if you read the first sentence. And so is it true that the present system we get to vote to decide who draws the lines. If this thing passes, the voting is finished on that issue correct.

correct or incorrect. If this passes, there will be no action from anyone, not from citizens, not from legislators, not from judges to challenge the decision of these fifteen people, which, by the way, are told that they cannot have any experience in the political process. They have to be totally ignorant of the process to draw the lines for something that will affect us from now until eternity.

are going to vote yes because they're ill informed. And just read the first sentence on the ballot and tell me that's something you're in favor of. That's a bunch of crap. Vote no now. Second issue. I'm watching all these hundreds of millions of dollars of ads with Sheren Brown, who began politics when Richard Nixon was in the White House, and Sharon Brown is claiming that he and Governor Mike DeWine are together on the transgender issue, which is a bunch of bs. Can you explain that?

Senate ripped it out. But House Bill sixty eight, which we passed in June of twenty three, we attached the Saved Women in Sports fact on it, and the governor came out and vetoed the entire legislation because the governor believed that young people under the age of eighteen should be allowed to have gender altering care and that transgender women should compete against with biological women in sports. So I'm glad that Sharon Brown said he agrees with the

governor because the American people are against both. I mean, the polling is over seventy percent. So yeah, Shared, you're four women being forced to compete against transgender women. Shared, you're four allowing young kids to change their sets before they're eighteen. Glad to know where you really stand. He's gaslighting. People need to read through his rhetoric.

but right now it's institutionalized. When I talk about christ, when I talk to Chris Collinsworth and others, they think it's a great thing that Title nine allows women to participate in high school and college. When I went to Deer Park High School, there were no female sports at all. And now at deer Park High School there's softball, there's soccer, there's all kinds of women's girls' sports. Is a good thing.

And so if you're going to use some of Mikedwine, use all of Mike Dwine, which is Mike Dwine endorses Bernie Marino for the US Senate seat. But can you address yourself to the issue This thing is developing more that radical left is one to put teenage boys in the locker room and bathrooms with teenage girls and separate.

But Eagle doesn't apply anymore. In fact, the LPGA just that two hundred and fifty of its members say, don't let this male golfer in because it's a college male golfer who it tends to be a female who now is going to compete on the LPGA tour because of a threatened lawsuit. How important is is Title nine to the survivability of women's sports and women have an equal access to the marketplace.

but lose their identity. When I look at the Olympics and you look at the boxing match, how fair was that?

that tennis racket more effectively. You can't change those things. And their testosterone is ten times more than a woman's and you can't dumb it down enough to make it equal.

that voucher and apply in a Catholic school, a charter school, and maybe another public school, and you get out of that situation. She said, no, we're going to get rid of that. That means that if you have a voucher right now, and you're a mom or a dad in Green Township or Clammont County, New Richmond, and you can access a voucher system, you can get your kid out of a bad school and put them in a better school. She said, no, where do you stand on vouchers, which

many suburbanite mothers and fathers love quite a bit. Where do you stand on that? Do you stand with Kamala Harris or do you stand with the American people?

another school system can adequately address it. These are the parents' children, not the educational systems. Children and parents have the right and they have the right to move their children where they are the most comfortable for the child. The child can be the most productive and the happiest and be more successful in life.

Let the ballot box govern who rules our lives, academics who have different ideas. But Genie Schmidt, once again, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. And God bless you, and God bless Clairemont County. Thank you very much.

find that acceptable, go ahead and vote yes. But if you want control of your own life and your own lines, and your own representatives Congress, State House, and State Senate, then you got to vote no.

for the Eagles on Sunday. Looks like the Orlando Brown junior and also uh uh Geno Stone got a day to day with that knee and and shin injury, but the Bengals. Bengals kick returner Charlie Jones is the AFC Special Teams Player of the Week. Of course, he opened the win over Cleveland with that hundred yard kickoff return. The last the returner to win a Special Teams Player a Week award was at twenty twelve Adam Pacman Jones.

is going on around this place. Half the time, the Ravens and the Chiefs looking pregnable, the Bengals look a little bit hippie. The Bengals defense is the best part of the team and not the offense. Please continue.

Let's continue with more coming up next to me Jeff Birding about all the doings in and around tq ellen Moore at showing the Reds and the Bengals News Radio seven hundred w l Bill in the Great America. Of course, the Thanksgiving Day race is coming up. Blink just took place, FC going into the playoffs, and the Bengals about to beat the Birds on Sunday. The Reds, the Reds and more World Series. A man with his finger on the pulse.

So what's happening in our town? Is the honorable Jeff Birding, who's the CEO and chief bottle washer for FC Cincinnati, And Jeff, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham showing. First of all, I know FC was not directly involved with Blink or Blink. It was the greatest event I've ever seen as far as attendance. People went nuts, The stadium was lit up. Of course you couldn't walk around, it was too crowded. But give me your recollect give me

your reflections on what happened with Blink. We got the arena, you want to build the arena, get a brand new place over by you. Of course, you got the Thanksgiving race coming up. FC's going into the playoffs. Public safety's at risk. I listened Tomingo some of the reverends that the Bengals promised ten years ago to build a stadium. Well, it's wanting Hill's. The problem isn't building a brand new football stadium. The problem is the behavior of one or

two people at the football games. But nonetheless, there's a question in there somewhere, would you answer it for me?

that from Utah. That would be a huge coup, a huge get for Cincinnati to be the host of the Sundance Film Festival. So they got to see Cincinnati Shrine. They were just blown away by it. The folks at the Chamber of Commerce, Brendan calling his team say over a half million people every single night, and it sure felt that way too. Two million people downtown. Half of the people were not from Greater Cincinnati. People driving in, staying in the hotels, flying in from other parts of

the world. I was at the UC game on Saturday. Of course they beat Arizona State, but the Arizona State people were downtown.

they go to Fargo. I mean, why can't we have a good arena here? We paid a sales tax twenty five years ago. It was meant for sports. Can we also get an arena this time around? I think that's a fair question. Brendan Call and the Chamber of Commerce have done a study. They're just putting the finishing touches

on it. I want to be fair. I've not been involved because you noted that one of the sites that is being reviewed is across the street from Police District, one across from Music Hall, but it's in our neighborhood of where TQUL Stadium is, and I don't want to have people think that I'm trying to put my thumb on the scale. But at the end of the day, where it is located is less important than that we

get a new arena. I want, like we had for Blink, coming into this region and spending their money filling our restaurants, our bars, our hotels, the visitors tax that it generates, the hotel tax, just like we have the Cincinnati Open tennis tournament and all the Flying Pig Marathon, all the other big things we do. We need to have more of that, not less of it. But it's going to take, you know, new facilities. We've made the investment in the stadiums.

Let's also see if we can do an arena this time as well.

had some moments where cars have been broken into. You hate to see it, and and it's our position and and the neighborhood and people in the West End that when kids do that there, and it is always young people, there has to be some form of sanction, whether that is you know, they're spending the next four Saturdays picking up trash along the highway or in the West End or in other parts of town. But there has to be a sanction. They can't just get a pat on

the back or a hug uh. And again I'm speaking very specifically. People in the West End say to us, Jeff, we have to work with juvenile court. We have to work with the to make sure that there's a sanction. No one's saying they have to go to jail for a year for breaking into a car. But they can't just get a pat on the back and say don't do it again. There has to be a sanction in order to show people that listen, when you'd make bad decisions, we're going to hold you accountable for your.

I think the city's teetering. And lastly, about a minute remaining, Jeff Birding f season the playoffs once again tell the American people what lies ahead of anything.

There's no ties in the playoffs, right, so it goes right to penalty kicks in this first round and we get through it. We have a chance to advance the conference semifinal and the finals, probably play the Crew again. And then this year, last year we won the Shield. This year we can win MLS Cup.
