Bill cunning into Great America. Welcome to this larious Tuesday afternoon in the Tri State Reds Baseball kicks off about six oh five tonight with Lance McAllister. Well, number forty four Dela Cruz hit one out into the Licking River or the Ohio River, or just hit the boat tonight the most exciting I might all say this. Maybe Mike Dartis would disagree, but early on this is the
most exciting Reds player that I've ever seen. Talk about Frank Robinson, you talk about Tony Perez, talk about Morgan, talk about Barry Larkin, talk about Jose Blaman on Rehill, whatever you want to do. Talk about Bucky Waters, talk about noodles Han. Noodles Han was a great performer. But nothing has led up Cincinnati like Dela Cruz has done the great number forty four.
Joining you and I now as Mike Dartis of the power of five and he is the consort of course of share Scherie Palelo and Mike Dartis once again, welcome to the Bill Cunningham Show. Let's talk first of all about the great number one four, not Eric Davis, not Floyd Little. Let's talk about not Jim Brown. Let's talk about Della Cruz. How exciting is that guy once he met to the Reds. Most exciting start in the history of baseball. I think's Tella Cruz and not even Reggie Jackson number forty four,
Willie. But you know what, I think it's his age too. I mean, you talk about a guy coming up when he's a teenager versus a lot of these other guys who spent two or three or four years in the minors after college. And what's funny is the guy gets criticism from fans because of his batting average and his strikeouts. He's hitting two fifty, you know, and he hits these monster home runs. He's exciting, He fills the ballpark. Give him a few years, give him a few years, and
really, the pitching's been the pitching has been pretty darn good. Yeah, But when your offense is hitting two fifteen around him, I mean, what do you expect. I mean, he doesn't have a much of a crew around him, you know, So he gets a lot of criticism, but he is exciting and I love watching well, you know, Mike Dartists. To start the year, Kral put together a team with a third baseman. I guess on steroids. A first baseman cees that is hurt, can't play
all year. Matt McClain, who was very exciting last year, I guess coming back on August or September. Then center field freedom keeps getting hurt. That's four of the eighth position players aren't playing, and now as we speak this Tuesday afternoon, they're in third place. Who knows what can happen in the future. But let's get serious. Enough of this playing around. I want to deal with you on Pastor Jackie Jackson. I read the story that you have at your website, and of course we pick it up too,
that Pastor Jackie Jackson been around a long time. He's founded an anti violence group in the city of Cincinnati. I met him many years ago. Well intended, a good guy, and I'm reading this story that he's had ten family members killed in the past ten years, including his sixteen year old grandson who was shot down like a dog and the banks a few days ago. He's out at two am in the morning. I think this Jackie Jackson the third has a child, but nonetheless he's sixteen years old. I guess like
a sophomore, A junior in high school or tries to be. And then, in addition to the ten dead, he says he's had nine other family members shot, one multiple times and lived. So we have one family with nineteen gunshots, ten dead, nine are wounded, some multiple times and live. And I'm thinking, Mike dartis what if you and Shuri Palelo had a family with ten members dead, gunshot, wounds and got shot and lived. I might want to move to Madagascar and breed Kmodo dragons. It's got to
be safer. What the hell's going on? Well? I think, you know, you know, you're running to people on the street who say, you know, sometimes a lot of folks who watch it, you know, they say, you know, it's tough watching all this bad news. Or I don't watch the news all the time because there's such bad news as well. What I try to tell him is we don't make the news up. This is stuff that's going on, and we can't put our head in the stand and ignore it. There's so many things going on, I mean,
what is the answer. We talked to Prosecutor Melissa Powers in Hamilton County, talked to the sheriff Charmaine McGuffey talked to Sheriff Jones out there in Butler County, and I think, yeah, you know, there's always that ongoing debate of rehab versus jail time. And the problem is, as you know, Willie, most of these people committing these crimes are reoffenders. And then eventually we're gonna that's the eight hundred pounds elephant in the room. You know,
these are the reoffenders. How do you deal with them? Do you put him in jail for longer? Do you get them off the streets? You know, there's this debate, and it's such a divided America right now. There's no middle ground, there's no middle ground ondeciding how we handle all this. And I think that's the big problem. We're never making progress, We're always chasing our own tail. You and I have been dealing with it. I of course did a lot of criminal law over the past. Really I
believe it or not. I've been an attorney now fifty years unbelieva. Last weekend I was eighteen years old shooting baskets at Deer Park High School. Time flies, and it's getting worse, not getting better. I look at some stats given by the Department of Justice, among other things. Every day in America, there's one hundred and twenty people shot in America and killed every day, one hundred and twenty. And on top of that, there's two hundred
more that are shot and wound and lived. And the crime statistics appear to be going in the right direction, but not really because most people don't report crime because there's no reason to report it. When you got two to four hundred kids downtown doing donuts and having a stage matches MM style, and then you have shots fired at barges going by, three or four cops cars show up and they're told, don't do anything I had on the other day.
Ken Kober the head of the FOP, and he will freely say the cops are demoralized. There's not enough cops to go around and as a consequence. As a consequence, all they can do is just put out fires all over the place. We need to two hundred more police officers. But you bring up a key point, Mike Dartist. We need a criminal justice system.
When repeat offenders come back to juvenile court with Judge Carrie Bloom, who gave a great interview to one of your reporters and the head judge and Juvenile Court said she does not want to put a kid in jail for one or two or three days because of the harm inflicted upon the offender. The offender is concerned. Carrie Bloom is concerned about the offender having some psychological damage by going to jail for a day or two. And I'm thinking, my god,
they need to go jail for a long time. Just recently in front of juvenile court, we had a kid who committed the assault on that Coal Raine High School teacher, put her at death's door, took off part of her skulls her brain could expand. And the judge there gave essentially six months in jail to a Cole Ryane High School student who's now sixteen years old for attempted
murder. And the prosecutor wanted to take that case out of jubie court and put it an adult court, and the juvenile court judge said no. D Staffan Raid said no, we're not going to do that. And so you have someone that commits an attempt at murder on a Cole Raine High School teacher in class while class is going on, and he gets an additional six months in jail and the teacher's outraged, she's lost her life, and so we need, well, what's your perspective. You've been around a long time,
you bring up repeat offenders. If you have someone who almost kills a teacher in class, shouldn't you get more than six months in jail? I think, you know, it's sad because this is one of the things. You know, there was maybe six months eight months ago, there was a shooting, not a shooting, it was an armed robbery down at the banks, involving a teenager, and the kid didn't even get jail time. The kid didn't even get jail time. And some of these bails, it's just confusing,
you know. You see in one county somebody gets a million dollar bail and then in Hamilton County it's five thousand dollars for something far more serious. I think, you know, we have to look long and hard at you know, putting people behind bars for longer. And and the problem is they say that you can't treat every offender the same, but unfortunately they do.
Every young offender seems to be treated in the same way, given the same liberties, you know, where if they commit a serious crime, they're given a second chance. They're given a third chance. I think we have to look long and hard at somebody who's just flat out a danger to society, somebody who somebody You lose your right to be an innocent child when you pull a gun on a teacher or you beat up a teacher, and as you
say, you almost killed that teacher in cole Raine Township. Yeah, I think sometimes you lose your right to be treated like a child when you do something that serious. You know, I've been around it a long time and I've been in the business thirty five years and it's the age old debate, but I do believe. Yeah, if it's something where you feel like you can rehab somebody and it wasn't that serious to climb, I'm all for it. Put them into the system, try to rehab them. Second chances,
third chances. But when you kill somebody or nearly kill somebody, I think that's off the table. Once you get to that serious the nature of a crime, I think you have to take that element off the street. And it's not fair. You're concerned about the offender, as you said, and their future and how they're going to react to being behind bars, But what about the next two or three or four victims who are going to be subject
to a shooting or a robbery or something like that. You know, Mike Dartist, there's three or four active gangs in the city of Cincinnati breaking into cars almost every night, I think the last night of the night before. You spoke about more car break ins as if it's no big deal because it happens so often. But when you get your car broken into, your windows
are shattered, and your stuff's going through, it's a serious crime. I mentioned yesterday on Saturday night in Oakland County, which is north of Detroit, Sheriff Bouchard, and I've had him on a couple times. He's a great sheriff, that they had a simple car break in and someone stole a twenty twenty three Chevrolet Equal and an officer was on parole and they said, hey, there's that twenty twenty three Equinox. I can't see the license plate,
but it's the right color. Let's pull him over. And the cop gets out of his car, walks up to the car with his gun drawn at his hip, and three get out unload on him, and that officer is dead. And that began with a car jacking with a car break and then
a fob was left inside the car and away we go. And these gangs recruit kids that are thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen because they know we have a dysfunctional juvenile court system that won't lock up kids, and they have a different attitude when they get to be eighteen years old and they get into adult court. I say, if you, as a kid commit an adult
crime, then you do a dult time. But when you have a judge Carrie Bloom and others that doesn't have that attitude, and there's no power on earth that can reach in a juvenile court with a sixteen year old almost kills
a teacher in class and make that student come to adult court. I know in Columbus that the legislature under the leadership of Bill Sitz, is going to try to get a law pass that in serious felonies, the county prosecutor can reach in a juvenile court and take the case out without the juvenile court's judge permission. And let's face it, the face of crime and Cincinnati is a young black male face. But the great majority of young black males have nothing
to do with crime. They're the victims of crime. I would assume the nineteen or twenty relatives of pastor Jackie Jackson are all black, and half are dead and half are walking around with bullet wounds, and they're all black, And there seems to be this idea. Well, we got to give a kid a second and third or fourth chance, and that's not the way it ought to be. And until we change, that system is going to continue. Now, lastly, we got the Great Debate coming up Thursday night.
And as you sent me a text this morning, and this could be this could be Super Bowl type numbers. Tony Bender tells me that ninety three of the top one hundred TV programming last year, and you're aware of this at Channel five is NFL football. This could be an event, might even be hired, might even be hired. It might be a Super Bowl between someone mentally absent against the Trumpster, who's loathed by many. Give me your perspective.
You're going to have it on at nine o'clock. We're going to have it on all the platforms. This is a heavyweight championship of the world. The presidency is on the line, Mike Dartis, give me your perspective. Well, first of all, I think you already know this. I did an informal poll last night on Twitter, and I said, as you watch theseates, are they going to help you make a decision or have you already made your decision? And I think you already know the answer. Ninety six
percent of the people in the polls that I've already made my decision. So but you know, it's funny that four percent could decide this election if you look at all of the key states. You can look all you want at the overall general election numbers and pretty darn tight within a point or two or whatever. But if you start looking at the key swing states, Ohio Trump by eight, Pennsylvania Trump by six, Georgia Trump by four or five this
time around, Nevada Trump, Arizona Trump. Michigan right now is a dead heat, and Wisconsin's kind of a dead heat. Even if Biden were to be able to pull those two, Trump would still win the election. So Joe Biden's got some work to do. And I think that these debates are
immensely important for him to show America at his age. With all these memes and videos going out on social media, some of them doctored up, of course, and some of them real that he can lead, you know, and you're gonna see it on live TV for an hour and a half straight. You know. There's no audience, so it's just the two of these guys, Mono Amano, and I think it's just gonna be mussy TV. I don't know. I mean, some of it's gonna be uncomfortable, A
lot of it's gonna be uncomfortable. But I mean, I would not, you know, tune away from something like this because I mean, I think I think not only is America watching, but the world is watching, and and really down the stretch here till November, this is huge. I mean, there's a lot of states that are up for grabs, and it's really going to be interesting to see how this goes on Thursday night. It's going to be exciting. I think the four or five percent will decide the election.
And of course Trump is playing an away game and the officials are picked by the Biden team. Some of the comments made by Jake Tapper include this is Jake Tapper in his own words in twenty twenty quote, for tens of millions of our fellow Americans, their national nightmare is over. Trump is gone. He also said, quote quote continue, Trump continues to lie to the American people. Another retweet, Trump is one hundred percent insane. These are
the words of the moderator, describe trump presidency as a total disaster. He ran a segment about the alleged shape of Trump's penis. I'm talking about Jake Tapper. He questioned the twenty sixteen election Russia collusion hoax. He said it was a hoax. The laptop is not real. He also claimed that Trump was rather angry defendant. There's no case here for him whatsoever. He accused Trump of being a Russian plant, and that is from the host, that
that's the guy in charge of the debate. Does that sound objective to you, Mike Dartists, Let's talk about Trump, you know, let's talk about that. Well, I'm not talking about that, and I'm not diving into that pool with you there, Willie. I think I'll stick away from that. But what I will say is I think Donald Trump, as you probably know, plays road games stronger than home games. The day he's convicted in New York, he raises more money than he ever had and he and he
whips up that base. I think that, you know, he's been prepping for this debate, and I think that he's ready for if Jake Tapper, in his mind, steps over the line a little bit, he's going to use that, of course, and you know that that'll get his it'll it'll pump up the people who are Trump supporters, and he'll use all of that. So I think he's going in his people have thrown that storyline out there about Jake Tapper and CNN, and so therefore he's ready to, you know,
ready to use that to his advantage if he has to. You know that. You know, Trump's a pretty good counterpuncher, but he's playing an away game and the officials have been picked and paid for by the other side. So Trump needs to overcome not just one person, but three. But Mike darteris thanks for coming on this Tuesday afternoon, and let's all hope the violence in the city stops. It'll stop when family formation occurs. It'll stop
when faith is a part of urban Black America. It'll stop when more fathers are in more homes telling boys when they're five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten years old, what is proper behavior and what is not proper behavior. I can't imagine you having a son down at the banks at two o'clock in the morning, wondering where the hell's my boy? You know exactly where he is, and so when when good fathers and good mothers raise
good families, that's the solution. But Mike Dartis give my best to Kay Rob and all the folks at Channel five, will Willy have a good day, and God bless America. Let's continue with more the line becomes available five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven thousand, and I'm not going to talk about Trump's penis on news radio seven hundred WLW everwolf down a big mac in thought I could use some extra cash my billy counting in
The Creative American Reds Baseball kicks off tonight. Tony Benner just told me that Nicklodolo is on the fifteen to ten or twenty day DL. He's hurt, he's got a bad finger. He's got a blister on his finger. When I pitched for Burnett Pontiac, I buy the blister on my finger. I chewed it off. I said, what the hell, I got nine other
fingers, but not the way life works today. And before I got onto the substantive issues, the Reds began the season at the end of March with a third baseman who was on steroids and gone, a first baseman Cees who about three weeks later was gone. Matt McClain never started. Then the center field of recij Friedel, he's hurting out for the third time back on the
DL. That's half of the Reds offense and they're gone, along with the lodolo and two or three relievers like like what's his name never got on the mound. So it's a consequence. This team is doing quite well when you have half your team who can't play or take steroids or whatever. So action starts about six to ten to night with segment Dennison and the course and Lance McAllister and Dela Cruz may hit the ball next into the Ohio River. If
not the licking, we'll see what occurs. Exciting. They're in third place, they're about about seven games out of first, but they're gonna have to start winning some baseball game system case. Secondly, I hear many well intended liberal sympathizers, and I heard it again this morning. You know, crime
is down, crime is down all over the country. And I have a quote here from the President who poorly read a teleprompter very poorly, but he did say that one of the highlights of his time in office is that last year we saw the largest decrease of crime in the history that it was inaudible in yan ying yin Ya. And the rates are continuing to fall faster than hunter Biden's crack addiction. Last star we saw one of the lowest rates of
violent crime in fifty years. Murder and rape and assault and robbery all down, along with burglary and property crime all down. Does anybody believe that? So? Now I see this report from the Marshall Project, which is headquartered in the East Coast. Of course, Biden didn't mention that in twenty one and twenty twenty two a decline in crime reports from police precincts around the country.
It declined in the reporting. In fact, one third of police departments according to the according to this factor, stopped reporting crime to the FBI in twenty twenty one because their computer system did not wet up with the new system put in by the FBI. The Marshall Project also explained that in twenty twenty one, almost every law enforcement agency was included in the FBI's database. However, by the end of twenty twenty one, the FBI put in a brand
new system compiling data would only accept police precincts. Through the brand new system with the right passwords and the right analytics. Thousands of police agencies fell through the cracks because they didn't catch up with the changes in the system. Thus, in twenty twenty two, twenty nine percent of police agencies stop turning in
data to the FBI. The Marshall Project reported in twenty twenty three that six thousand law enforcement agencies were missing from the FBI's national crime data as compared to twenty twenty. That's about one third of eighteen thousand police precincts. The FBI pivoted then and said, wait a minute, we got to start collecting the right kind of data. However, the Marshall Project said it remains to be seen how many of the over six thousand police agencies, including New York City
and Los Angeles will begin or have begun reporting again. Up to this point June of twenty twenty four, they have not. So how can you say? And the experts, you know, talk show hosts may not know this. The general and maybe editorial writers and newspapers don't know it. Maybe community activists don't know it, but it appears that twenty nine percent of police agencies still do not report crime to the FBI because their political leadership doesn't want it
done. It's bad for business to say I've been in office for a long time and crime is rising. So its a consequence. Idiotic politicians, supported by foolish opinion makers continue to say that historical crime decreases have happened. Is that your experience? Absolutely not when you delve into the numbers. The reason crime stats are down is because about one third of police agencies don't report data to the FEDS because the democrats in charge of cities and counties don't want to
report it. And that layer on top of that the fact that police are disincentivized to pull in the over for committing crime. There's no more individuals being pulled over on speeding charges or reckless operation charges whatever. That's why you have so many speed bumps on Madison Road because police don't want to pull people over because if you pull somebody over, give me your drive, give me your license, your registration, your insurance, and here we go, Well,
what's that in the car, what's your name. I don't want to give you my name. Get out of the car. I won't get out of the car. Get out of the car. We got your name now and you run them. You got warrants out therefore we got to arrest you. No, you don't want to arrest me, and cops are done with it.
Too. Many cops have the experience of what happened to that police officer in Oakland County north of Detroit, under the leadership of Sheriff Bouchard, who there was a report of a twenty twenty three Chevrolet Equinox that was stolen. The fob was left in the car, broken windows. Hey the fobs here, start the car and take off. Police officer followed the car about an hour later, picked it up and said, hey, that's the car that
was tolen. Get out of the car to arrest the individuals involved. Three, get out with and execute the police officer. The father of three and one. His wife is pregnant with number four, and he's dead. Numerous shots through the head and the torso he's dead. See, criminals not to shoot cops in the head, not in the body because of body armor. So they shot this cop dead on a simple car break in results in a
police officer dead. So the more and more cops see this kind of stuff, they're thinking, wait a minute, Hell, I'm not pulling anybody over. My leadership does not want me to do it. Politically, it's bad if I chase some knucklehead down the hallway, And as a consequence, why I put myself at risk when I'm not required to do that in my job. That's happening in never major city crime is up. Reporting a crime is way down for political purposes, computer purposes, and blue cities don't want to
report facts because it's bad for business. That's why crime, according to the FBI is down. But they also report that agencies and not giving them the data. Garbageen, garbage out, No garbage in, garbage out. That's the way it is. Secondly, it is with deep sadness that the gut Marker Institute, which is the largest abortion gathering institution in America, is now reporting that last year, in twenty twenty three, we've had the most abortions
since twenty nineteen. How many times have you seen that women are about to become handmaidens, et cetera. Well, in twenty twenty three, there were at least one million, thirty seven thousand abortions according to Gutmaker, which are the major statistic gathering, which is higher. Oddly enough, the Democrats the liberals again want to tell you a lie and make you vote based upon the
lie. It is extremely easier now to get an abortion than under Row and Row versus Wade, for example, and the third trimester when the when the baby is viable, in other words, can live outside the womb. There was a state interest in making sure that babies were born and and today in Ohio, and I'm sad to report on this that Ohioans voted for an abortion buill to put in the in the Ohio Constitution that said that abortion is permitted
up through the moment of birth. So Ohio has a more liberal abortion policy killing unborn babies then was under Row versus Wade. Did you know that? Of course not, media doesn't report it. The number of abortions because of telemedicine are off the charts. And if a woman gets pregnant today outside of rape or incest, which is one percent of pregnancies or less one percent, it's because she wants to get pregnant or she's acting along with he irresponsible.
Is birth control available, beginning with abstinence, to condoms, to birth control pills, to IUDs, whatever it might be available everywhere free, go to clinics, they're free. So if a woman gets pregnant today, it's because she wants to get pregnant or she's acting completely irresponsible, especially especially when there's a Plan B pill out of Walgreens. Go to Walgreens within two or three days after unprotected sex, and no pregnancy takes place in the first place.
So if you get pregnant today, you want to get pregnant or you're completely irresponsible outside of the one percent rape and insist. So Ohioans and the voters are stupid. I'll freely say that did not understand. They thought they were imposing to say. They had to read the law, which most voters do not read it simply in favor against abortion, which is why they pass in
most states. But now abortion on demand is much more liberal than Roe versus weight in the state of Ohio. If we had a six week or at sixteen week ban, that would have been voted in two But see the abortionist killing unborn, healthy babies doesn't want that. They want the mother to have the access to killing her baby up through birth. And that's the way the law is in Ohio. And it's sick and it's sad, but that's the way it is. More abortions than five years ago. And because of telemedicine's
going to be more and more abortions. But why get pregnant unless you want to? Don't act here responsibly. And if you do get planned b at Walgreens, it's available. So the Democrats liberals wants you to vote on issues that have no germane relevance to the issue itself. Roe versus Wade said. And the third tribe mester, the state has an interest because the baby is viable, baby can live outside the womb. So that's the way it is. But don't do not believe the fact that you hear the crime is down.
Crime is down. No, it's not. Crime is way up, but the reporting of crime is way down. The prose acusion of crime is way down. Putting people in jail for criminal activities are way down. That's the fact. And lastly, we spend some time with crime on the mead streets of Cincinnati. If I was in a family as Reverend Jackson is with ten dead family members and nine others that are wounded and survive. That's nineteen
family members over a ten year period. I might want to relocate to Madagascar and say to hell with it. Have all the programs you want, fund all the so called activists like Irish Rolie, give her lots of money, stand around bus stops, have after school programs, talk about botchi ball in downtown theaters. It's all a bunch of bs. Until families are formed and fathers mary mothers and husbands marry wives and stick together and have family values and
also the idea of faith. Nothing's going to. Cincinnati is not unique. Cincinnati is common with other Blue cities and Blue states in which there's little or no family formation in large parts of the urban black community, which is not the most of African American folks living in America. The great majority of African American folks are in the middle class, living not in the dirty major cities
of this country, and they're doing quite well, thank you. And Sims Township and Comington and Boone County. Black couples are everywhere living out the American dream. It's not a black white thing. It's a behavioral thing. Change the behavior of individuals who find it acceptable to father numerous kids out of wedlock and not be the father to their kids. Solve that problem, and you'll
go right to the heart of the matter. In the meantime, spend all the money you want on downtown movie theaters and BATCHI ball and whether or not to have more after school programs and more basketball leagues, more swimming pools are
open, doesn't make any difference. There's a hardcore number of individuals and the the city of Cincinnati that are overwhelmingly black males between the ages of thirteen and twenty five, completely dysfunctional, that do not represent Black America, that do not represent the values of people like Melvine marsh or the values of people like Scottie Johnson, or the people like Christopher Smotherman, and the people like the
great judges and lawyers, the Clyde Bennetts of Cincinnati. They don't represent those kinds of individuals at are because they have degrees, and they work, and they're middle class and they live outside the hardcore inner city of the city of
Cincinnati. So to solve the problem, change the behavior mainly of fathers and mothers who will form family structures, become husbands and wives and guess what then the first thing they want to do is move to Florence or get to Butler County, get out to Westchester somewhere, or Clamont County because they can't stand it either. It's not race, it's behavior. Change the behavior and you'll change the outcome. Well, let's continue troll fifty five home your Reds without
a team intact with Lodolo back on the DL. They are playing magnificently under difficult circumstances because of Nick Krawl. Let's continue twelve to fifty six, and also Dave Collins, the top sales rep with the Reds is Dave Collins. All in news Radio seven hundred WU olt you our Higheart Radio, I Billy cunning in the Great American Whenever I watch NBC, ABC, CBSPBS or the morning shows, all I hear about is the weather, which they claim is
the climate, which it is not. And David Muir begins with a weathercast. If there's thunderstorms in Minnesota, it leads normally, if it bleeds, it leads. But with the weather today, the media has determined that we have to pound into people's heads that this is so unusual. The weather we're having in the summertime when it's hot. Of course they'll always compare to the
nineteen thirties when it was about five to ten grees hotter. But I and so it is a shod always say, a political view of the mainstream media to keep pounding in the people's head that climate change is changing the world because of rainstorms and thunderstorms and lightning and hail and tornadoes and hurricanes, et cetera, in order to allow the government to have more control over your life because of climate change. Joining you and I now is Steve Gorm, executive director
of the Climate Science Coalition of America. Author are four books on energy and climate change, with over one hundred thousand copies in print. His new book is Green Breakdown The Coming Renewable Energy Failure and came out August of last year. And Steve Gorm, Welcome again into Bill Cunningham Show. And Steve, what are the political goals of the mainstream media when they report weather? Hey, Willie, great to join you again. Yes, yeah, it seems
like it's hyped. You know, it's a great story. It gets more people to watch. I guess you know. The fear man made warming is a great boon to the media. And they're even naming all sorts of storms now that never used to be named. They're trying to name heat waves and tornadoes and floods and everything else. And I also find they're using the heat index a lot, you know, because the heat index when it's humid,
is higher than the temperature, so it sounds worse. I'm expecting they're going to invent a thing called a climate index, which is even higher than the heat index, so that it will really it'll really seem hot. Yeah, go ahead, please go ahead. Now, is the media being successful because when you're politicized and you're preached to and it's an indoctrination that begins in grade school, in high school and colleges, the Helmas protesters, all those individuals.
Are they victims of the system? Are they independent thinkers? Put in perspective, the weather we have today is that climate? And is it worse than it's ever been? No, it really isn't. It's it's it's a little bit warmer. We've had about one degree celsius about two degrees fahrenheit warming since eighteen eighty and that's kind of a milestone because that's when we had thermometers that were being used. So it's been a pretty mild, gentle rise.
But we hear all these people talking about records. There's recently in the AP they had this talk about how heat wasves thirty times thirty five times more likely because of climate. But if you look at the history again, you can go to site with Noah, the National Shanek and Atmospheric Administration, which has the state high temperature records, and find that most of our records, well
twenty three of the fifty state records were set in the nineteen thirties. That includes Ohio, which was set in Gallipolis July nineteen thirty four one hundred and thirteen fahrenheit. I think on Saturday, the forecast for Cincinnati is to get up to ninety three, so it'll be twenty degree lower from the old time
record for Ohio. But that's you know. And then by the way, thirty six of our fifty state records were set before nineteen seventy five, so we've had warmer times in the in the recent past, as well as many many times in the last ten thousand years. I much been warmer them today. I wonder if David Muir and Lester Whole were around in the nineteen thirties and the temperature was one hundred and thirteen degrees in Galla Police of Ohio.
They would have gone nuts. And so what is the political goal of the media to indoctrinate us with information untethered to reality? Yeah, I think it's sort of a just a joining of interests. You know, climate is great for a lot of different policies. You can spend more money for wind, solar and biofuels, and you can get rid of some industries you don't like oil and coal and natural gas. And then the media gets to hype these stories and so it's sort of a you know, a pooling of interest.
It helps it helps our media viewing and also helps you do what you want with the climate rather than one big plot. I think it's sort of a pooling of interest, but it has captured most of the people. Like good news is there have been some recent polls that have said that the number of people that believe man made warming is dangerous has actually declined by about ten points ten percent I think in the last few years. So that is a good
news. Maybe there's just too much overhype, and people are starting to say this doesn't make sense. And I can recall a couple of years ago there were like no tornadoes in the Midwest, and the media didn't report on that. But now that we've had some outbreak of tornadoes in the summertime in the
spring, they report on that. And what are some of the predictions about global warming typically that have failed to occur because we never go back in time and look at this so called experts who told us what was going to happen by the year two thousand or the year twenty twenty five was going to happen. What are some of the three or four worst predictions made to indicate the
falsity of man made climate change. Yeah, there's some big ones, matter of fact, in the nineteen seventies, and these comes This comes from my books. I have these sidebars which show real headlines, but in the seventies that were predicting an ice age. Here's a quote from Newsweek, January nineteen seventy the planet will cool, water, vapor will fall and freeze on A new ice age will be born. A headline October nineteen seventy one in the
Los Angeles Times quote new ice age. It's already getting colder. Nature had a headline in nineteen seventy five same thing. So they were predicting cooling for a while. But by nineteen eighty five the things had shifted and people are starting to talk about man made global warming. Here's that Carl Seigen, the
famous scientist, December nineteen eighty five quote. Few scientists now dispute that today's soaring levels of carbon dioxide and other gases in the atmosphere will cause global temperature changes to rise by as much as nine degrees fahrenheit sometime after the year two thousand. Look at about Yeah, a couple two or three tenths since nineteen eighty five, I think not nine degrees. And Carl Sagan is one of
the apostles of man made climate change. And I saw a reason graft about fifty years ago they said by the year twenty twenty five, Florida would be underwater. Florida will be consumed. Explain that how Florida is not really underwater. Yeah, oceans are rising seven or eight inches per century. But then
we have to add to that the land subsidence. The land in Florida and along the East coast is actually subsiding by anywhere from ten to twenty inches per century, So there is a rise that people are going to have to adapt to. But again, driving EVS is not going to stop the ocean rise. That's just a myth. Here's another one. This was from John Holdren.
He was the chief Science officer in the Obama administration, and he was quoted in nineteen eighty six that it is possible that carbon dioxide climate induced famines could kill as many as a billion people before the year twenty twenty a billion? A billion. Did that happen, No, that didn't happen. Here's another one. This was on This was on the United Nations website in two thousand and five and they said they're going to have fifty million climate refugees by
twenty ten. Well, they erased that from the website because that didn't happen. And then maybe the most famous of all was former Vice President Gore who said this was in two thousand and nine. He was speaking at the United Nations Climate Conference in Copenhagen. Quote, there is a seventy five percent chance that the entire North Polar ice cap during some of the summer months could be completely ice free within the next five to seven years, so that would have
been about twenty fourteen. That didn't happen. We've had a little bit of ice decline as the Earth is warmed, but we still got the ice caps. What about the polar bears. My producer Tony Bender loves polar bears. Of course, we're killing polar bears all over the Arctic and killing the penguins in Antarctica. How's the polar bear population coming, and also the penguins.
The polar bears are doing fine. Yeah, the polar bears were kind of the icon of the climatist movement for many years that they were going to disappear, but we only had about We had about ten thousand polar bears eight to ten thousand on the surface of the Earth about nineteen seventy and then the northern nations got together and signed treaties to prevent hunting of polar bears or limit hunting, and that was a Canada and Scandinavia, the United States, Russia,
and now we've got twenty five to thirty thousand polar bears. We have more than triple the amount that we had in nineteen seventy and that's because we're not shooting any somebody for hunting. But the little, the few, the fraction of a degree warming since that period hasn't really hurt the polar bears at all. How about clubbing the baby seals in the head. How's that coming along? Clubbing the baby seals? Well, that was another that's back when the
environmental movement was really an environmental movement. You know, they're concerned about the animals and the whales and the nuclear proliferation. Now they're in favor of building wind turbines off the coast, which may be hurting the whales and nobody seems to care, or putting up wind turbins that chop up birds all over or in Scotland they removed something like ten million trees to put up wind turbine sights.
Not very environmentally friendly at least in the terms of the old environmental groups. I want to share with your report from Canada. Of course, Canada
and Western Europe is about the worst. You know, the US Olympic teams eating it off in two or three weeks, are taking their own portable air conditioning because Paris has determined they're in a climate crisis and they will don't allow the athletes to be in air conditioning when inside the rooms might be ninety five degrees, but nonetheless Paris is going to be green, which means you can't be cool. Also, I'm looking at a study out of Canada. The
report Research shows quote report card on physical Activity for Children and Youth. They concluding Canada, the climate change is emerging as a new barrier for kids and youth to get more active. How about this and so climate is ru Yeah, this is like, this is like, you know, if we have a list of one of the stupidest studies of the year, this one has to go on there. They actually think more heat in Canada is preventing the
kids from exercising up there, so they're getting fack. The average annual the average annual temperature in Toronto is eight point seven degrees celsius. That's like forty five degrees that's the average temperature in Toronto. Down in Cincinnati it's twelve point seven celsius, Atlanta sixteen celsius, down in Miami twenty five degrees celsius. I mean, the kids in the United States just just aren't getting in the exercise because of all this heat I mean, it's just it's just looney.
And there's like seventeen quote leading experts that agree to the conclusions of this study. In Canada, you wonder whether these people are you know, what world they're living in. They really are there there, but but now you know everything's got to be due to the climate. It's just it's just looney and Steve gorm. You have to say that there's a lot of money in this. You're paid to do research, and you're paid to come up with a
particular conclusion. You're not paid to find out that the pollution in America is less today than it's been in the last one hundred years. I'd live in a little Cincinnati and used to be able to stand in Mount Auburn looking over the valley and you couldn't see downtown because of the small that's all gone. We almost live now in a pollution free environment, not until the pollution has been solved. I said before the EPA should disband because they're successful. But
there's too much money in coming to a particular conclusion. And I would note that the University of Michigan, Michigan the Wolverine's not exactly a conservative enclave has said that in order to produce the batteries for one EV, five hundred thousand pounds of dirt must be moved, and that to supply the mining requirements of evs over the next twenty five years, we have to build every year six large new mines every year to produce cobalt and copper, lithium, et cetera.
And instead of producing new mines, we're producing less. We're shutting down demanding more electricity come from where. Unbelievable. And this also points out a normal Honda accord needs about forty pounds of copper. Electric Hondas need two hundred pounds of copper. And no one has planned to more or less double in the next ten years electricity production. In fact, we're planning to produce less electricity with more demand. How will that work? And this is the University
of Michigan. Yeah, I think well, people are starting to catch on. We need a lot more electrical power for all these things. But on the other side, the consumer seems not so interested in EV's. Lately, they've hit a speed bump. Sales are actually flat in Europe this last year. EV's are losing share in the United States. The places that are still growing are India and China. And by the way, China is shipping tens of thousands of these things to Europe and they're sitting on docks and people aren't
really buying them. So the EV revolutionist kind hit a speed bump, but slowing down. And uh, maybe this is one of the first signs of the coming green breakdown that people are just not going to be forced to buy evs and switch to electric appliances and all the rest. Even when the government bribes people to buy evs, they don't do it. And I would point out the last week Bloomberg indicated that every EV sold by Ford cost a company
one hundred thousand dollars each. So by selling an EV, if you divide the loss by the number of evs sold by Ford, they lose one hundred thousand dollars every time an EV leaves the lot. If I was Ford, I'd quit selling evs. What do you think, I think Farley's in trouble the president, Yeah, it's and they're scaling back, and they're scaling back their new designs. By the way, there was just a survey out.
I think I heard it this week on last week on TV that something like forty or forty five percent of all current EV owners have said they're not going to buy an EV the next time around. They're going to go back to a gasoline or a diesel car. So so that's that's a big shift, and you know, people are getting back to sensible and government can only do so much. By the way, if mister Trump gets in, a lot of this is going to be shut down. He's going to shut off a
lot of money for things like all these charging stations. And again there's another area. Nobody is making any money. Charging stations don't make money. They're living on state and federal subsidies. So we got a long way to go. EV's are going to penetrate world markets. But the idea that we got to force them to stop the oceans from a rising, that's what's really crazy.
The book is the coming Green Breakdown. I would point out that Pete Buddha Judge, the brilliant Secretary of Transportation, said on CBS Morning News about a month ago that they had planned five hundred thousand charging stations and so far there are seven seven of five hundred thousand, and most of those don't work. And when it's hot. The evs don't work well when it's cold. The EV's don't work well when you own an EV. Many times you have
to plan your trip with all the charging stations. To charge your vehicle costs as much as filling it up with gas, which doesn't impact the environment. We're brilliant at cleaning up the environment, and we can get rid of that technology too, because, let's face it, it's not working. It's a government boondoggle and more figured it out. Steve gorm The book is the coming Green Breakdown, and it's happening as I speak, and the green breakdown is
everywhere. Where can people get your book? If anywhere, Yeah, I think, go to my website Steve Gorham g R E H A M dot com and I'll send them signed copies. They can get ebooks as well. By the way, there's a bunch of this about one hundred and fifty colors, sidebars, all kinds of great things, like the guy in Sweden who's who proposes people eat human flesh to help reduce global warming. All these are important headlines and it shows how crazy the world is. I guess gules are
still alive. They like to eat human flesh. That's someone really recycling the environment. Eat grandall. That'll be great, all right, Steve Gorm, you're a wish. CBS, ABC, NBC and PBS put you on set about once a month to tell the American people the truth. There's too much money in this to be broken down, but the American people are getting wise and Trump is the solution. Let's continue with more, Steve Gorm, thank you very much, thank you. Let's continue. Bill cunning in the Great
American with you every day. You're home of the Reds. News Radio seven hundred WLW Weebia Chevrolete. It's to daily cruise. He drives it high and deep to center field.
