55KRC Friday Show - Tech Friday, Dan Hils, Tom Brinkman

other reason it's Friday. But beyond that, Tech Friday, Uh, China planning influence people through TikTok Oh shocking that I got a story here in Iran is doing the same thing, not through TikTok on its own advertisers have sued Meta for seven billion dollars in damages and Ferrari Ceo almost a victim of identity theeve. I think that story goes back quite a few weeks, remember reading about that one. We'll get the details from Tech Friday's day Hatter at

six thirty, as we do every Friday. FOP President Dan Hills outspoken with regard to the fop's endorsement of Greg Lansman over Orlando Sanza. He's going to join the program at seven oh five event his Spleen. I imagine anyway, it was good seeing Dan at listener lunch. He's made a special show and just to stop in and pad Orlando on the back and apologize for the fop's error in endorsing Greg Lansman Tom Rankman about using railroad money for tax cuts. I just kind of reacted to that, kind

of negatively. Sell the railroad one point six billion dollars, and they obviously sold the bill of Goods to the voters of the City of Cincinnati who approved it. That railroad now is supposed to generate revenue for infrastructure, and immediately Tom wants to take six hundred million dollars out of it and put it in a step for fun to help City of Cincinnati residents pay for real estate

tax Huh okay, I know it's a problem. I'm not saying real estate taxes aren't high, and inflation, you know, coupled with it, is really causing a lot of problems for folks. But well, we'll work out the details with Tom. Toms joined the program NATO five, and I'm welcome him

to do that. Let us see here five on three seven four nine fifty five eight hundred eight two three talko with pound five fifty on AT and T Funds for care to call, I'd love to hear from you, and I may as well just die lots just observing the growing chorus of folks within the mainstream media across the spectrum, from CNN and all the way over to the Wall Street Journal everything else in between. What in the hell is going on with Kamala Harris? Who is she?

What is she all about? What is she actually going to campaign on? What's her foreign policy strategy? You don't know in neither to what, and of course that's by design. God, you know. I wish the American people would express more outrage over this. I mean I have been speculating and wondering out loud. Why what goes through Democrats' minds when they have no say in the choice of their candidate?

Is this an acceptable process? The whole thing related to Kamala Harris now being the nominee for president of the United States of America without any input from the constituents at all. That's bad, of course, and her folks got the chair they always do. I mean, it's not like the necessarily that people might have any saying the vice presidential choice although if they had a convention or a nomination process they might, But you got Timmy now and

the uber left ticket based upon voting records. You gotta go back and see what they said about policy positions, what they voted on the past, how they did, for example, as governor in the state. And while the financial train wreck that is that state, the money that they've lost, the taxes they've increased, the fraud, waste and abuse that went on, the lockdowns during COVID, we can all see that Tim Watt's got a record that he has to

run on or hide from. Same thing with Kamala Harris in favor of all of the main issues, the main issues that are impacting the American people, like, for example, just grab one of the border on the wrong side of the American public sentiment with regard to the border being wide open and causing us a bit of a threat, a concern of her terrorism resources being used and absorbed and exhausted as a consequence of having to care for just this unmanageable number of folks coming across the border.

She was on and remained on the side of having an open border was her baby, It was her darling. You can say all day long, she wasn't in charge of it.

on record of wanting to ban fracking. Now they're trying to walk back a lot of this. I get all that, but she's on record, and she's not on record now because she won't talk to anybody. What are we on day nineteen or something like that. We only have a finite a very small number of days left before the election, and she continues to hide and run this, you know, Joe Biden from the basement COVID nineteen strategy of campaigning. And now we're all left to speculate. More and more

people are saying, what's the hell's the deal here? Maybe we'll be able to get to it later. Kim Strassel, choose your her own. Kamala, she's been compared to John Kerry, but he was relatively honest. He was a relatively honest flip flopper. We're left to guess, Kamala Harris, mystery commander in chief? How would the president keep America safe in a dangerous world? Voters deserve some editor some answers again headline from the editorial Word to the Wall Street Journal,

and they all post. They go into the point that we're all just left to speculate. We don't know what the hell she is. Her surrogate says she's something other than what her policy position stated out loud, were going back as far as twenty nineteen or even prior to that. That's what she said, that's what she avowted, and that's

what she was in favor of. Now, since we reject as a matter of prioritization of what matters to us the American voters numero uno on our list, like the inflation and the border and crime and all of that. Now she's got to walk all that back because she's on the wrong side of what America once. But she hasn't said it herself, so we don't know cosmic crapshoot, and you're gonna get away with this. Wouldn't you want

to know what your candidate is running on? I mean again, I keep trying to put myself in the position of a Democrat who is, you know, embraces the idea of anything but Donald Trump. But is that good enough for you, my Democrat friends, it's certainly not good enough for me. I'd like to know what the candidate stands for. I can speculate because of what she uttered out loud, in her own words, and I'm more inclined to well take her at her own words than what some surrogate says

through some filter. I think you should be too. So anyhow, we're all left to guess. But the chorus of folks within the media at least is, you know, pointing this out. And it's nice to see the likes of something like CNN do that, because we all know CNN is basically one of the most left wing organizations out there. Although maybe they're shifting right because the ratings are so terrible

and they're losing so much money. I don't know. Maybe they can try to rehabilitate themselves over time, but it is going to take a lot of time. Drum beat is growing. CNN panel warns longer Harris Waltz Duck interviews, the more scared they look. How about that their strategy will only receive more scrutiny and backlash as time passes.

It's interesting, hottest Gold, CNN media correspondent. The drum beat is growing, and it's a drum beat not only from the Trump campaign who's going to keep up this attack line, but it's also coming from reporters themselves, she said. The veteran former righte House correspondent Ron Fournier said that every day she doesn't talk to the media, it's what he called political malpractice, and we're going to hear this drum beat growing more and more until she does finally sit

down for an interview and for right now. So it's an easy attack line for the Trump campaign to use. Well, of course they're using it. Fournier, worked for the Associated Press, said, if not good for democracy, it's not a great look actings. If you don't need the media, you don't care about her answering these questions that you're above it, that you can ride on vibes, you know, and that they're riding on vibes, and I get that this is a very

truncated campaign. They've had to do everything very quickly. That's se cup in terms of sitting down reporters, but they need to do it. These don't have to be fatal questions, but they need to answer for that, and they need to show that they're tough enough to do that. Tough enough just to answer questions. God Almighty, that's the role of a politician. The longer they take to sit down, the more scared they look. A sea cup, So you got again. I'm glad to see the growing chorus. I

want to see a louder one. I want to see what Kamala Harris actually stands for, and of course how Waltz answers for his record, which is not going to be an easy task for the vice presidential candidate.

in the back of my mind aware of going on. Okay, we got the Internet, We're all connected globally, and of course that means nefarious people like the Iranians, the Russians, North Koreans, anybody who dislikes as Venezuelans, the list is growing, have access to trying to influence you. And this is one of the reasons why you want to stay off TikTok because a social media influencing operation Iran is apparently ramping up its online activity to influence the upcoming US election.

Shocking no one. Apparently, Iranian actors have been spending recent months creating fake news sites, impersonating activists, laying the groundwork to stoke division and sway Americans for the fall election. Stoking division beyond the election is something that they have been doing, I am certain now for years, how do we get so am divided in this country? If social media didn't exist, do you think we'd all be screaming

about bathrooms and access to bathrooms? There would be this massive outrage and outpouring of support for all these different, wild and very weird causes, which you know probably wouldn't be elevated anybody's measure attention, because well, if you look at the number of people let's just say trans people and listen, you want to be a trans, knock yourself out.

Just don't shove your ideology and your mentality down my throat, and Nique tell me that I have to accept it's just because someone says there are a woman makes them a woman. No, it just means that they dress and act like one, as long as the emotive dress between the sexes varies and at such point in time. And

I love the joke about this. You know, if we were all issued, you know, the olive drab, gray cameer rouge type pajama outfits and all had the same haircut, all of the cameo rouge, you couldn't tell the difference between a man and a woman. That's the point. But it becomes elevated through social media to the point where you think that everybody around you is with falling within that category. And of course the one size and narrative

that everybody needs to abide and yeah that listen. Absence social media, I don't think that would be even existing. But then you've got this opportunity here from the various powers outside of the United States to create and stoke division. Look at the racial division.

an eyebrow raised anymore in connection with that. That's why it's it's just irrelevant what color Kamala Harris's skin is, in spite of the fact that the Democrats want to make a big deal about it. Content of character is what's important. That's why I go back to what in the hell's Kamala Harris's character? What is she running on? But this report from Microsoft about these threats show how iron is evolving in its tactics for this upcoming election.

It's going to have global implication before it goes a step beyond anything. US intelligence officials have disclosed. While getting specific examples of Iranian groups and the actions they've taken so far, they say the report doesn't specify Iran's intentions. Besides showing chaos in the United States, US officials have previously hinted that Iran particularly opposes who do you think right?

Donald Trump? Port also shows how Russia and China are exporting US political polarization to events their own devisive messaging in this election year. They got a group linked to Iranian's Revolutionary Guard in June targeting US high ranking presidential campaign official with a phishing email. Group concealed the email's origins, sending it from the hacked email account of a former senior advisor in this political organization unnamed in the report,

although I'm going to guess it was Trump. Separate example, they're creating websites that pose as US based news sites targeting voters on opposite sides of the political spectrum. One lends itself to left leaning audiences, insults Trump, calling him raving mad, and suggesting he uses drugs. One third example, Microsoft found the Iranian groups are impersonating US activists, potentially

laying groundwork for influence operations closer to the election. And finally, another Iranian group compromised an account back in May owned by a government employee in a swing state. Now Ron denies this, as you imagine they would, but it's easy to do, and then using artificial intelligence makes it that much easier. Cheap, easy access to this artificial intelligence tool allows them to generate fake images that are indeed lifelike photos,

videos in a matter of seconds. Experts concerned that they'll be weaponizing and misleading voters coming up in the election side of well, you won't be able to believe your own eyes or ears. This is why it's so important to be so critical in your thinking when it comes

to what you read online. I got people sending me memes of you know, conservative leaning memes, and they make assertions and then I'll go do research and find out, Now that's a lie, and then I have to get back on them and say, did you even look into this before you send it out? The response is and now I just passed it along. Sorry I didn't realize it was fake. Five twenty seven fifty five krs DE

He can be seen running under the outfield, appearing to take a Cleveland Guardians player, talking to a Cleveland Guardians player, and doing a backflip before being chased and eventually tased. A fan of the outfield said Hendon ran onto the field in a Red's jersey and appeared to try to fist bump a Guardians player, taking the justice center, booked in within the hour, pleated not guilty the charge of

graphic details of the abuse. As well as pleading guilty, Britain wrote a letter of the court apologized for the abuse. No amount of words can convey how sorry and ashamed I am, nor undo what I did?

arrest on July thirty first at his mom's home. Officers suspicious when they arrived at home that morning and found clothes in the driveway with an odor of bleach.

What Yeah tell me about it? Man accused of hiking naked in Colorado, exposing himself to women of a period of several months in Jefferson County has pleaded guilty to three counts. Court records reflect Glenn Brayden, twenty one years older, rested in August of last year charges related incidents that occurred along trails in Jefferson County. Several women reported the man, later identified as braid and slapped their butts. One of the women reported that he slapped the butt doing that

and then try to rip her shirt down. He pleaded guilty to one kind of attempted sexual contact felony, one kind of sexual contact felony, one kind of indecent exposure mister me, fourteen other counts dismissed as part of the plea agreement. After being arrested, he agreed to speak with investigators. Said he typically hiked around dusk on Mondays and Tuesdays, which were his days off from work. He mentioned that he liked to hike in the parks where the incidents

occurred and would purposely expose himself to women. He admitted the woman reacted with disgust, but said he felt compelled to commit these sexual acts and could not help his compulsion. Right, it's doing idiot things because.

Tom Brent, I'm about using a railroad money to help pay for real estate taxes for the City of Cincinnati residence. Still scratching my head over that, but that's where we get Tom to talk

about it. So looking forward to hearing what he has to say about that. You can also call it love hearing from U five one, three, seven, four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three talk or pound five fifty on AT and T phone mentioned the last hour of the growing chorus of people wondering who in the hell Kamala Harris is and what she stands for, given that all of her prior stated out loud on the record position seem to be being walked

back by not her but members of her staff. She only speaks reading from a teleprompter. She does not take impromptu interviews. She will not answer questions were allowing I think day nineteen of that, although I do see she is apparently agreed to debate Donald Trump the ABC debate on September tenth. Now, Donald Trump wanted to do three of them, he said, Fox News September fourth, ABC September tenth,

and NBC September twenty fifth. Word from that Kamala Harris campaign that she's only agreed thus far to the ABC September tenth. Do we have to wait till September tenth to find out what the hell she's all about? Is she going to talk about what she's about at the convention?

Good question? Don't know, but more people are asking. I mean, when CNN starts saying the drumbeat is growing and warning that they look scared by ducking interviews, the more likely that she's going to have to come out of her shell. But in the meantime, choose your own, Kamala. That's the headline from Kimberly Strassel. Just worth pointing out a few things that Kimberly noted here today in the Wall Street.

We know she's from San Francisco. She was a prosecutor there, with the Senate voting record and twenty twenty presidential bid, during which time in those various points of her career, she proposed radical progressive agenda items. So that's her record. She spent the past four years as a partner to Joe Biden, who at least officially still disavow some of the radical policies. But how would President Harris govern? Don't know.

She's not saying again, no longer speaks impromptu. That's when you used to get the cackling comments and the word salad comments, because that's what she did when she's not reading from a teleprompter and through spokespeople just issuing backtracks on her prior on the record policy position. So is she still left wing Kamala Harris? Is she faking a pivot? Is she a reformed Kamala Harris?

private insurance. Back in twenty nineteen, she was on the record of saying that out loud, then backtracked on that, then readopted it in a Democratic debate, and then backtracked again, then apparently issued a hybrid approach, which, at least, according to chim Strass's analysis, blew up her can paign back in twenty twenty, when she stepped down because no single

person would vote for her. Where is she now? Campaign officials vaguely explained that she no longer supports single pair, But that's a vague explanation, not from Kamala Harris's lips, put from people that are her surrogates. What does that mean? Which she has promised in twenty nineteen create a system which private insurers can cover in her words, very little or is that not that is not otherwise covered by medicare? Because almost everything will be covered by government, she uttered

previously in her own words. What's she telling you now? Her surrogates suggests again she no longer supports single pair, But we don't know what hybrid approach or whether she is really lying, or what banning fracking that's on the record. There's no question I'm in favor of banning fracking day one priority. That was twenty nineteen, back when she had to well drop out of the campaign because no one was in favor of Kamala Harris. She wanted to eliminate it.

On public lands as well as and offshore drilling, and act further legislation to well kill anything on private land. You know that's common. A spokesperson. A spokes person now generically says she no longer wants to banfracking, how much any certain categories federal land only private land is she?

not in favor of doing a buy back anymore. She once was in favor of reimagining, getting rid of immigrations and customs enforcement, saying once that we needed to think about starting from scratch. Now through campaign staff, they suggest not her that she's no longer in favor of abolishing ice or starting from scratch. So here we are left to wonder out loud. Where is she on the guns, Where is she on the border, Where is she relative to ice? Where is she relative to fracking?

with Israel. They couldn't peacefully coexist. He got a little bit of trouble with that one. I don't know why, but he wrote that back in his twenties. As Kim observes, these positions of Kamala Harris which are on the record were her views five years ago when she was servant in the US Senate. Now her surrogates are saying that she is something else and that the she's disavowing these position That massive shift itself requires explanation. Has she had

an epiphany? Kim asked, has she been inhabited by an alien? Or our voters being asked to elect a woman who, in her third decade in the political arena, has yet to decide what she thinks about the most pressing policy questions of the day. Kim doesn't leave the hanging, of course not, She writes, this is deliberate evasion. Obviously she had Joe Biden as attemplate because back in COVID he was able to run his campaign out of his basement.

Never emerging. Allowed them to control the message. It allowed them to hide Joe Biden in a deteriorating cognitive ability. They were lying to you. You were told what Biden was, the moderate great, you know, handshaker, he reaches across the aisles. He's good, old solid Joe Biden, moderate, Joe Biden blah blah blah blah blah. Biden didn't say that. They said it for him because he was in the basement. This is exactly what's going on with the Kamala Harris campaign.

They're calling it her Kim calls it the teleprompter campaign, every word scripted and rather nebulous themes of freedom, the future, her words, I'm running to fight for in America where the economy works for working people and where hard work is rewarded, because that's the America I believe in. Props again to Kim, said every politician ever. And yet she's not answering any questions directly, she's not offering any interviews. She is no not acknowledging her past four years. There's nothing,

You've got nothing ergo. You get to choose your own version of what Kamala Harris is or is not, as the case may be. So what are we left with? Exactly what I've been saying, What we're left with. We know who Kamala Harris is. Actually, that is what her record is. It is what she advanced by way of actual policies when she was in a position to actually advance policies as a senator, far left agenda policies.

that kind of stuff up. I appreciate your concern, though, Kevin. If they could figure a way out how to do that, then I imagine that they probably would have a good Friday man, happy and thanks for calling and real quick. What else do we don't know about Kamala Harris? The all important foreign policy? Does she know anything about foreign policy? Where is she on foreign policy? We have no idea.

The world is falling apart. We have nothing to show by way of Kamala Harris's foreign policy chops, and of course Tima walls no foreign policy chops. What does she think about the twenty twenty one Afghanistan withdrawal, the failure to her Russian Ukraine, the Iranians nuclear program, China's South China Sea land grabs, their designs on Taiwan? Anything anybody know anything? Can you answer those questions? I have no idea. In the American people deserve to know this. We are

basically on the cusp of World War three here. Apparently she'd been endeavoring her team rather not her words, but her team's been trying to walk back whether she told an anti Israeli group that she'd be willing to ponder an arms embargo to Israel. She didn't show up at Benjamin Attanya his speech to Congress, and question she hasn't answered yet why did she pass over Josh sapiras her running mate. Well, she's got a lot of anti israel

folks in Minneapolis and Michigan and Wisconsin. Maybe that's the reason. But since she's on record wanting to ban fracking, that causes a big problem for the Pennsylvania voters. They get a huge, huge influx of tax revenue from the aforementioned fracking and their sale of the evil loosely referred to

as fossil fuels, coal, natural gas, and oil. It funds the coffers of the state of Pennsylvany, and if you took it away from them, they would be out hundreds of thousands of jobs and literally millions and millions of dollars coming into the coffers of the state from that industry or those industries. Not a good look for Kamala Harrison. It's one of the reasons why she probably could have gone should have gone with Shapiro. But we can't have a Jewish person, can we. At least that's what we're

left to believe. She hasn't explained it. She told counsel on Formulations again on the record in twenty nineteen, that she'd rejoin Iran's nuclear deal as long as Iran has returned to verifiable compliance. Guess what Iran hasn't and does not comply And it is near developing a nuclear weapon. That ship has sailed. Where is she on it now? These questions remain unanswered six twenty five fifty five. Krositi

talks and it's sad, isn't it? And you know, all I can say is, you know, I like seeing that the at least there's an illustration by the leftists at CNN that they too are complaining about this.

systems and solve your problems. And of course they do a wonderful job, and they sponsor this segment which is called Tech Writing with Dave Hat or Dave Welcome back to another edition of the Orwell Report.

against them. At least that's what our intelligence official has said. And so now they're building fake news sites, impersonating activists, laying groundwork to stoke division, all according to the Associated Press.

It points out the sources they used for the article. But yeah, of course they're going to use these platforms to try to persuade and influence people to particular opinions. I mean, that's one of the reasons why these things have been as successful as they have from a financial standpoint is the people behind them realize the persuasive power and make a lot of money off advertising. So, I mean, it just makes sense if you have some sort of narrative you want to push that you're going to try

to reach people on these platforms where they are now. Again, TikTok is a special case, as you and I have discussed many times over the past few years, pretty much since its inception. There have been many allegations about privacy issues with TikTok that are well documented, But TikTok again kind of a special case because many people have come back and said, well, how is it any different than

Facebook or Instagram or fill in the blank. And the answer is, well, it's owned by a Chinese company by Dance, which is controlled by the People's Liberation Army and the Communist Party of China, and it's increasingly clear that it's being used for more than just extremely aggressive and granted or data collection about its users. I would remind people go look at the Apple app privacy label for TikTok

and see what it purports to collect. But it's being used as a way to according to various reports, including this article that references it in a new report that recently came out, that it's being used as a propaganda tool by the Chinese Communist Party to forward narratives that are helpful to them and their cause and their ideology and suppress ideas that are not helpful to them. This thing, I know, we don't have time to get too deep into it, and people can go read this from themselves.

It's very easy to find. The report that the article references is TikTok Operations in the United States, unveiling strategic moves and sites and what lies ahead. Now I'm reading directly from the Washington Times article reveals the Chinese government's plans to use short videos and other methods to promote communist ideology and narratives worldwide. That's a direct quote from

the Washington Times article, which then references the report. This article is based on a couple other highlights in here. Chinese scholars study the application enlightenment of TikTok and ideological and political education for college students. States TikTok can be used to expand channels for delivering ideological education to Americans born in the nineteen nineties, a critical demographic target.

make the same argument for most of these platforms. You know, again, the difference is here, your data is going to come a business that is controlled by the Chinese Communist Party. And then as we see more and more evidence of this thing being used as a persuasion and propaganda tool to push pro communist narratives and suppress pro freedom narratives and to create dissent in the United States, it's.

foreign exchange is about. You paying less to have your car service with a full warranty on parts and star. I mean, that's the bottom line, is your bottom line, and I love what they've done for me over the years.

I've saved thousands, I can say probably, I say literally thousands, and just looking at my oil changes alone over the years from my under warranty cars that have gone to foreign exchange, yeah, German, and the couple of German cars have been taking a foreign exchange over the last couple of years, the one that got killed and the one I'm currently driving. I saved more than two hundred dollars on an oil change, so I know that I've saved

more than one thousand dollars right there. But then again, my wife's out of a warranty car that we just recently sold. They kept that thing running in top condition, allowed me to maximize the sale price at all the service records, all foreign exchange. I even told the guy that bought it through my son that, you know, call them up. You have any questions about this car's reliability,

talk to the people who work on it. That's Foreign Exchange Westchester location where all of our cars get service to our satisfaction and where we save money, and you will to take the Tylersville exit off of seventy five.

multiple properties. And an Adweek article talks about this. It's kind of interesting because the bottom line is basically that the folks in this lawsuit are alleging that meta platforms have vastly inflated the number of views they're getting on things so that they can charge substantially more money for

the ads they're running on there. Again, kind of going back to that last segment as a reminder, if you can pick any of these platforms right, they have lots of users, and to the extent that they can claim they have active users that are seeing your content, they can charge more money.

I mean that is a massive number. I could easily see where someone could argue okay, And you know a lot of times when you look at the analytics on these tools and the metrics they spit out, it'll tell you, well, this isn't a precise number, right, so I could see where you might be off a couple of percent, maybe ten percent, but four hundred percent margin, Yeah, yeah, you're over inflating the viewers by four hundred percent. I mean, it's it's pretty insane.

Jason Kent, CEO of the nonprofit group Digital Content Next. Now, I've seen allegations of this before that these platforms essentially know that they're inflating these numbers because it allows them to charge more money and by presenting real numbers, their revenue and profitability would go way down.

in that Wired article. I'm going to paraphrase the man I get exact rate something to the effect of, no one inside these companies wants to stop the money machine. Right, So even if they know that there may be issues with some of these things, you don't want to be the person it's like, well, wait a minute, we should do this. In his case, he was focused more on the privacy concerns that these things raise and the extensive tracking. But you know, I think that's part of the problem

obviously these companies. Again, I would remind folks when you look at Alphabet, the parent company of Google, or Meta parent company of Facebook, most of their revenue comes from your data. You are not the customer, you are the product. They're making money off of your data and selling you things based on that data, selling your data, et cetera.

So again, anything that impacts that is going to take a gigantic chunk out of the revenue because what else did they have to sell you And at the moment, the answer is nothing. If you think about it, you know that has tried some things like that home portal thing they were selling for a while didn't catch on. So it'll this to me is going to be very

interesting to see how this plays out. Along with you may have seen, Brian, it wasn't on our list to talk about today, but this recent lawsuit that went forward with Google and basically claimed that Google Search is a monopoly, and I'm sure they're going to peel that all the way to the Supreme Court, and maybe we should talk about this next week. But it appears from what I've read, again not an attorney, that there's a strong possibility that

Googles want to monopolistic power over search. And one of the ways they've accomplished this is they pay companies like Apple and other companies to make Google their default search engine. Anyone, anyone can go in anytime and change their default search engine, but most people don't know they can do that, and most people don't know how to do it right, which, by the way, I would encourage everyone, you know, change, yes,

change your Google search engine. It's easy to do. In fact, if you want to have a little fun, go to Google and search on how to change your search engine. You'll get the you'll get the articles you need from there. Then you can go into your browser settings on whatever platform you're on and change it to something more friendly like Duck Duck Go or start Page or one of the other you know. I would even argue being with

more privacy friendly than Google. But nevertheless, nevertheless, it'll be interesting to see where this goes, because I mean, I think this could really have a huge impact on that industry.

They want to keep the money in the house and they make huge, huge profits at the hospital imaging center. So you got the same equipment, you got same professionals, kind of a professional's operating. And when you go to affordable imaging services, you aren't paying thirty five hundred dollars for an MRI. You're paying four hundred and ninety five dollars. If you get a contrast, and this is the most expensive scan that affordable charges, it's six hundred and forty

five dollars for an MRI with a contrast. Seet scans four hundred and fifty, not five grand, which they could be at a hospital. You get a contrast, it's six hundred.

piece of content created by some sort of AI. Could be audio, could be video in some cases some combination of both. And there have been some high profile cases of these deep fake voice clones where someone is using this technology to copy someone's voice and impersonate them.

even real time. There was a big story that came out of I believe it was Taiwan about a year ago, where a guy was on a zoom call with people he claims that he knew this would are not unknown people to him. These were people he claimed he knew on a Kazoom call quote unquote and they convinced him to transfer twenty five million dollars. That was heavily reported on. So now we see another example. And there's multiple facets

to this that I think are important for people to understand. Again, the first and the foremost being it is easy to clone someone's voice. And people will ask me, well, I'm not a celebrity, how would you get my voice? And my simple answer is, well, if I call your phone number, do you have a voicemail message? Because if the answer is yes, I probably have enough of your voice to clone it using one of these freely available tools to take no skill or experience to use. So that's the

first piece. If your voice is out there in any public forum that I have access to, and even if I got the AT and T dump of phone numbers and just randomly called phone numbers and got a voicemail, I could clone that voice. So don't tell me your voice isn't out there. Maybe it's not, but it probably is. So that's thing. One thing too is in many cases, now again this was clearly targeted. Right they went after the CFO of Ferrari and impersonated the CEO of Ferrari.

How hard do you think it is Brian to do a little open source intelligence and figure out who the CEO and CFO of Ferrari are.

would be my first quote. If you don't normally get communications from someone who was asking you to do something, especially financial, over a meetium, if your CEO has never contacted you via what's happy for or fill in the immediate red flag. So you know he's chatting him up and then he works into hey, we're doing an acquisition. I'm going to need you to do a thing. It needs to be kept confidential in da blah blah blah.

So they're they're working this guy social engineering. So we've got what is essentially a social engineering attack using you know, a known platform. Obviously they found this guy's what'sapp information slash phone number out there, Probably not that hard to do as well, could have been leaked, could be stolen, maybe posted somewhere, which is one of the reasons why the less information you post about yourself that could be

used in these types of maneuvers, the better. And eventually, you know, the guy started to get a weird feeling. It didn't feel right back that they have to maintain a healthy dose of skepticism at all times, especially in any unusual scenario. And then he asked him about a book.

of time. That's just big red flag for everybody. I appreciate your warnings, your concerns, You're admonishing my audience about paying attention and being careful, and of course let's end on the get the hell off TikTok. Thanks to Interest I for sponsor this, Dave, I really appreciate what you do.

FOP for the Cincinni Police Department. Dan Hill's always a pleasure for having you on the morning show, regardless of which hat you are currently wearing. But an outspoken critic of the recent FOP endorsement of Greg Landsman. We can talk about some of the other ones, but wow, that really had you going the other day on the support the Blue and Cincinnati page. Welcome back, and it was great seeing you at Listener lunch on Wednesday. Man and your wife, who's your better half?

So I appoint a committee. Now the now president appoints committee, and the way it worked with me is I check in and a little bit. I don't like the micromanage. I check in a little bit in the beginning and have the endorsements brought to me at the end, and I did not always agree with the endorsement. Look, there's no secret I'm about this conservative as you can get. I mean, I'm often disappointed with Republicans for not being

conservative enough. Sure, but I realized that I'm in a lodge that has members of all persuasions and political parties and everything else. Was that dead? Was that said? There's certain things I'll tell the committee chairperson, like, Hey, whatever you do, make sure you look after so and so because they've been great to us in areas that you might not know of because I'm the president I know, or whatever you do, be aware that so and so has done this, or that you know, a reminder type

of thing. So, just so we're clear. If I had anything to do with this, and say Greg Lanson was running against Satan, it was between Greg Lansman and Satan, I would I would have told the committee chairperson, I say, look, I can't support I can't support either one of these at all. I think it'd be an embarrassment if the FOP endorsed Greg lanb I think it'd be an embarrassment as the FOP endorsed Satan. So let's just let's plan on a no endorsement on that one, and that way

the committee chairperson could could steer him that way. And the reason why, the reason I say that was with Lands and you know, you got the Gang of Five and his activities during George Floyd. A lot of people don't remember this one. I was the president. I saw his behavior during the Kyle Plush tragedy and how he was throwing the city under the bus, the employees of the city under the bus before they really knew what

was going on. And I don't want to go deep into that rabbit hole Kyle Plush, but that had a lot more to do where a spare tire had been stored than it did anything else. It was just a terrible, terrible thing of fate. But basically throwing the cop center the bus and that that very sad tragedy absolutely turned my stomach. But not to go off on a national scene, uh Bran, I guess I still find about that process. Did I answer enough of your questions about that process?

got to sign off on stuff as the president. I wouldn't sign off on anything that embarrasses that should embarrass the lodge. And this it's me embarrassed the lodge because I've seen who Greg Lansman is. And I was trying to do a funny when I was talking about Landsman versus Stayton. We know we don't have Greg Lanson versus State. We have in versus Orlando Sanza, who's like one of the neatest guys I've ever met that wants to be

involved in politics. I mean, why a guy is need is Orlando Sanda wants to get involved in the political world. You know, he's got to be crazy.

kind of screws over the cops. There's a law because the way our pension works, that they don't get full social Security if they've had sob security jobs. So I guess Landsman has become a champion for trying to fix that. But to me, I was now ready to go to some national issues. You're worried about your social security. I don't think there's going to be a social security when you're talking about what the Democrats are doing with the border.

The border, the border, which is in violation of the rule of law, which is trying to take down our two party system. So I no longer can look at anything I do, even like if I was still involved in FOP as just oh, I'm just a guy that's bouncing between you know, who's pro labor with the Democrats and who's you know, who's moving more pro law and order with the Republicans. We're past all that right now.

Our nation's under attack. And unless unless the Democrat stands up and goes, my party is totally screwing up here because they're giving up the sovereignty of the nation and they're violating the rule law by inviting every thug throughout the third world here into this country. Then I have no interest in them anyway. So uh, maybe other people can't see what you and I can see, which is

a shame because we all got to wake up. I just heard your tech guy talking about I ran doing what they can do that the hurt Donald Trump and nobody should be shocked by this. They want the What the left has gone to in this country leaves me a little bit handicapped to being able to to do what we used to be able to do with endorsements.

Is like, like I said, it's kind of way between that that Democrat and Republican thing, because as a pro law and order union, we should probably ring more republican. But I understand why sometimes as a labor union we cared about uh you know, uh what what some Democrats were saying. I don't even believe. I don't believe the Democrats or even pro traditional labor anymore. I don't, I don't. I don't know what they are other than you're socialists that want to take down the country as we know.

But there I kind of one off on a tangent on you. So I can talk a little bit about the state if you have more time.

some swag. That's right, new folks, you haven't been a twenty two three on route forty two between Mason eleven and get in there and get on that wonderful range of theirs. And if you do for the first time, you're gonna go away with some swag. Yeah, they got some special stuff going on there to give away while supplies last. So new to twenty two three, they'll take great care of you. And after using the range, you have an option of a nice little token gift there.

If you're already a twenty two three customer, great, that's an outstanding thing, you know what I'm talking about. Bring a friend who is new to twenty two three and you'll both get swag and your friend will shoot for free. You can't find a friendly, er, cleaner gun store or shooting range, and you can't find one with better selection. They have a fantastic selection of all types of firearms, ammunition, accessories, classes, range membership options galore, and the best people in the

world own it. That's Wendy and Jeff. I just love both of them to death. They're fantastic and they know what they're doing. They got a great staff there and a gunsmith to learn more about everything that they offer. It's twenty two three dot com number twenty two follow by the word three spelled out twenty two to three dot com.

five at the Cole Rings. What to the seventy five ram Chuck Ingram on fifty five KRC Deep Talk Station.

If you're listening to Dan and I talk about and seeing Orlando's praises and you're like, what, you haven't met him? Meet him. He's all around, he's readily available, he loves to talk to people. He's just strong on the issues. Orlando Sons at dot COM's where you can find out where he is on any given policy position. So a true, true, wonderful candidate, and I think he's going to serve our community. Well.

But pivoting over you, Dan Hills wanted to mention some of the Order of State races which were not part of the endorsements.

headquarters or whatever. And and again, there's rarely people in politics that that make me go that that guy is a special.

on that committee, I've voted that we endorsed JD. Bans against whatever that left he was that he was running against and Uh I got I got beaten up quite a bit in the in the committee and ended up doing a a no endorsement recommendation to the floor where the delegates I would have liked to have been this time, get a chance to vote well from that floor, Me and one of the other the I think there were three of us that tried to get jd Uh recommended

for endorsement. We went to the floor and ended up the floor of a rule the committee and they they endorsed jd. Bands. So you know that that that I think could turn out really good for our country is you know, he's he's really to me looking like a good VP assistant to the Donald Trump. But so that's how that works at the state. Here at the local it's you know, it works a little different. But if I was up at the state, I would have wanted to endorse UH. If I would have been a delegate,

I would have voted to endorse Bernie Marino. We did a no endorsement on this one here, which I'll take as a kind of a victory for law and order over shared Brown. And don't get me off talking about Sheridan. I know IM in the same camp as Greg Lambsam. You know, if it was Shared Brown and Satan running against each other, I would want to do a no endorsement.

But with Bernie Marino, I thought it would be wise that we gave him an endorsement, and one that doesn't necessarily stay there the next time in six years when he runs again. Also would have would have voted for Joe Deaters and very disappointed that we endorsed his opponent there at the state level. So, like I said, traditionally we probably fope at the state level leans a little left.

Here locally we used to kind of lean a little bit right, and I I did everything I could to keep that in order, because again, I think we're more important for us to be a law and order organization than a labor organization. And people that are people that are worried about their social security fairness. I get it

that times are tight. To start to look why times are especially tight with inflation, and look at the future of social security if you keep electing Democrats, and so I can't help but to have my personal beliefs and what I've observed is happening at the national level and everything else really bleed over into my my union politics because I want everybody to to do better and to you know, thrive in this country. But I you know, especially policemen and especially I want you know, there to

be law and order. And I think that I think we haven't even begun to see the worst of what's going to happen with these people that are coming over the border illegally. Yeah, and how it's going to affect the safety of the nation. Well, and when when President Trump and JD vance, when I think that's when you're going to start seeing a lot of the terror cells that are are are coming across that border.

I haven't heard anything. Although no, I've heard from listeners and others that claim to be in the know or have information. We do have an illegal immigrant problem in this area. It's just that no one is ever talking about it. Obviously not as bad as a place like Chicago or New York or some of the border cities that are just overwhelmed with them. But have you are we struggling with that in any way, shape or form. Do you know if we got a lot of illegal immigrants in our area?

a bracelet. Can you believe that they're they're the land legal ali and bad guys. So when they got you know, out of jail and put on that bracelet, Brian, you want to guess how long I think there was two of them, maybe three, but you guess how long those bracelets stayed on their ankle.

it all the time. I wish I wish you could articulate it a little bit better and have people understand that this is coming home to you and so back to again. You know, if you're you're on an endorsement committee or whatever, and especially you're a cop, you're a copper, a retired cop, and you're going, look what these people are doing. It's totally against the rule wall, totally against everything we ever believed in in this country, and it's

going to have real effects on everybody. It has effects on whether you can get a job, if you're if you're pro labor and you're being you're you're being cut off the ankles because of a bunch of legal aliens. And I see them all over the place working. I'm sorry to make assumptions that some of them are illegal,

but I imagine actually most of them are. And at the same time, if you are in a more affluent position in life, or you have a nice home or whatever, just so you know, some some Colombians or some Chileans might just kick in your door and they might have firearms, firearms on them, and they might take all of your really nice stuff. Actually have I actually have two wealthy friends.

I got Brian Thomas, I got another friends and news and is surgeon, and he got broke into in in the Hyde Park area and they took Drewelry and and and things of that nature. I think those were Chileans too. So you know what, I feel like doing a wake up America. But that's from a police officer's point of view. You got to wake up and you got to realize who's actually looking out for the country. Ain't perfect. Ain't

nobody in politics perfect. Probably Orlando signs it might be one of the closest I've ever seen to be in a perfect gentlemen. But we endorsed, we endorsed Greg Landsman, neverm So that's that's when I kind of lost it.

I appreciate your time today. Keep up the great work, and you always have a form here to talk Man and I welcome, I welcome you back on the morning show.

and and in a way it kind of is. But but really it is just too different, totally diametrically opposed, polar opposite ways of looking at at government and and and I cannot understand why why people aren't seeing this as much as they should be. How one side wants to run your life for you, control everything about your life, take all of your money in order to do that, and give your money away to people who haven't earned it. Uh,

it just doesn't make any sense. That is that is what I just stated is about as un American as you can possibly think. We we we hear America believe in earning things and getting what you deserve. But sometimes you know that doesn't even work out, because life sucks sometimes. But to give people stuff for nothing it is because they quote unquote deserve it. That's just ridiculous. And they're

taking something that you work for. So don't let them take your money, don't let them take your freedom, but don't vote Democrat. Have a great way you can't right.

I shouldn't elaborate on that, but that sounds like a policy of position. They'll be more consistent what Thomas saying and what I'm saying, which is, yeah, hard work is reward and the reward is salary and pay that you should be able to keep and spend as you see fit work is rewarded. Sloth lethargy is not rewarded. And yet the Democrats regularly take from those who've earned. And it doesn't matter what color your skin is, what religion you worship. If you make money, they want to take

it from you and give it to somebody else. I call that theft. And the fact that they can take what they want from you in the form of the tax rate is taking your labor. This is slavery when you have no say and you can be jailed, fine and penalized or otherwise. You know, docs are garnished. When you don't pay taxes, that means you must as a matter of law, which means they are capturing how much

work you do on a percentage basis. So if you're in a twenty five percent tax right, twenty five percent of your labor is taken by the government, which means you are a slave for twenty five percent of your work hours period. End of story. Now you can just try and say, well, we need bridges, we need roads. There are certain things in that eye. We'll concede that.

But when they're taking from you, stealing from you, making a slave of you to give to somebody else, most notably causes principles, things that you don't even believe in, that have nothing to do with core but basic government services, roads, bridges, infrastructure, then you got a problem.

Chuck Ingram on fifty five KRZ the talk station.

And since the money was supposed to be paid for infrastructure only taken away from principle, my cause a bit of a problem. Is it going to be even lawful to do it? We'll find out. Tom's going to answer all those questions coming out real soon and real quick here. Since there's been very little additional information from our federal government about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. Not answering questions,

I mean, no accountability. It's fueling the conspiracy theories. And I started this morning pointing out and Tech Friday's Dave hot and I talked about it as well. Iran for example, is ramping up all of the fake news sites, faking they're impersonating activists, they're stoking division in advance of the November election, and they are not on the side of Donald Trump, that is for certain. In fact, they like him assassinated. Which takes me back to the update here,

since we don't have much by way of updates. Although there was some new video camera that came out video evidence from the police that were there, not the Secret Service bodycam footage that was obtained by the Wall Street Journal, for example, reveals the moments right after the former president was shot and a reflection of how just absolutely grossly

negligent at minimum that they all were. I talked to Secret Service guys, They're like, yeah, no problem, we're going to post guys over here refern to the time of the roof in advance of the shooting. And no, they

didn't anyway, that's worth looking into and reading about. But during the pot of division, it's easy to do when your government is either lying to you or keeping mum on topics, and there's a whole range of topics we could talk about that the government refuses to answer questions about a new polls out showing that a third of Americans believed that the gunman was acting alone and there

was no broader conspiracy. And yet this tip Daily Mail poll found forty five percent of those survey believe in a larger conspiracy. And that's what happens. This fuels conspiracy which can easily be made into something broader than it is or bigger than it is, because guess what, they don't answer questions. Pole reflected among Democrats, they believe Trump

staged the shooting. He managed to have himself grazed by a bullet, allowed one rally god to be killed and two others seriously wounded, and found a twenty year old willing to take the fall to be killed by counter snipers. Now that just reading that, it sounds preposterous. And of course the FBI did confirm that he shot with a bullet. Some say Trump wasn't actually hit by a bullet, but cut himself to create a bloody ear so he can

make that iconic photograph. Uh okay. On the other side of the political letter political Ledger, conservatives think the fact that the shooter was allowed to climb the building to a rooftop of a line of side to mister Trump and squeeze off eight shots while people were pointing to him and running around on the ground going, hey, there's

a guy up there. There's a guy up there. Some believe that they intentionally left Donald Trump unprotected, So maybe not actively involved in it, but intentional negligence for the purpose of maybe, maybe, just maybe this is the rally where a crazed gunman will show up. If we're lax on security, we don't cover buildings that have a line the site to the president in the stage, then maybe

he'll be able to be successful. That as a th sounds a lot more plausible than Donald Trump staged it, because of course we are presented with evidence of gross negligence, and then of course we're all left the if you don't believe in conspiracy theories, we're all just left with a simple matter of fact that I think it's safe for all of us to presume that they were and have been grossly negligent, that it's a terrible work environment,

that they don't know what they're doing. If they can't even figure out that there's a line of site perfect sniper position close enough to the stage, and even an inexperience shooter could probably get off a fatal round, then we have a problem on our hands. So let us uniformly agree that in so far as the United States Secret Service goes, and at least as far as this particular event goes, we got a real problem on our hands.

But that's what their silence causes, and that allows others, maybe outside of our country, to stir the pot of division in yet one more area of our life.

be right. I mean, Kennedy got assassinated how many decades ago, and we're still talking about that one, the magic bullet, and the conspiracy theories that swirl around that, the hundreds of books that have been written on it. Probably the same thing as a consequence of this one. Does anybody believe the Warrant Commission after all that, Well, they could have been forthright, could could have brought out the information.

It's easy to do. It's easy to do. And if the bottom line is we just screwed up, which is basically the word we're getting from the US Secret Service, maybe we could buy that and maybe they would transform their ways and no longer screw up. But there you go. We're all left to speculate because their mom on the topic, which is dangerous and maybe maybe that's the point. Who benefits.

running for Hamilton County Auditor. Everybody knows who owns property here in Hamilton County and basically outside as well. Property taxes went through the roof. Some people got lucky and there's only one up, maybe nine percent. Others are facing a sixteen percent and even higher property tax rate, and many people can't afford it. You got a senior in a house on a fixed income, they cannot manage a property tax bill that goes up that much. Maybe a

solution is in Columbus. But Tom Brinkman has a solution. He's just turned in a proposed charter amendment and it's made the obviously made the news rounds, supported by, among others, Adam Kaylor, who's running for Hamilton County Commissioner, to take some of the railroad money the one point six billion dollars of Cincinnati put in trust when they sold this Sinni Southern Railway and take six hundred million of that to put it in a separate fund to help people

with their property taxes. Tom Brakman, welcome to the fifty five Cassey Morning Show. It's great to have you on to talk about this today.

eighty eight million dollars a year on this investment. I don't know what the market dropping the other day, whether that's even possible story to be told later on it. But the point is they take the money from the revenue that's generated, and they must work on the hundreds of millions of dollars in infrastructure needs we had because well, for the last four decades, I guess they've ignored roads and bridges and core infrastructure and they got themselves into

a real pickle. And now you want to take six hundred million of that to help people with property taxes. How is this going to work in practice? And is it even legal given the background behind the sale. I know it's a long winded way of opening this up, Tom, but that's all I got, man.

between fifteen and twenty years. But the way it's structured is the fund would be started in fifteen days, The city would contact the county auditor in fifteen days find out what their tax bill would be, and then fifteen days after that they write a check to the county treasurer, so that when we would see our bills, we would see that we owe one thousand dollars, let's say, but we would also see on the bill that one thousand dollars has been covered by this city fund, and we

see that type of reduction and into substantial reduction. It's about eighteen point seven even percent, depending on what type area you live in. And you know, if you're paying for your trees or you know, your sidewalk repair, you know that type of thing. Now, you know, we have home rule in the City of Cincinnati, in the state of Ohio. It's in our constitution, so a charter city can take care of what they want to do within

their boundaries. Now, I've been in the legislature and I know they're always trying to cut back on that.

in the city my old life. Nobody's given me tax abatement, nobody's setting up a fund for me. So my ancestors who were here in eighteen forty so they were around when they built that railroad. They were assessed property tax to pay for that railroad. It's fitting that the people who own property in the city now get relief from that fund. And I think it's only the.

keep a simple, stupid system. And that's how we plan to do it.

I get rid of that, holding it the same with twenty nine million, and then they want earned more earnings tax and I you know, I drive on Columbia Parkway. Fort Worshan away. It's a mess. Yeah, the garbage isn't picked up. It's a mess the street. They say, Oh, we're going to do these little bumps to stop people from rolling through the stoplet you drive across Seventh Drive

across Seventh Street. When I dropped off my petition yesterday at city Hall to get the seventy one, oh you got this, boom bom boom boom bom bom bom boom boom. The asphalt's terrible there, and.

that ran the city of Cincinnati. Was it Gene Ruleman or something or Ken Blackwell? But any event, they have neglected Fred and everybody else's road in chasing stuff and things and bright shiny new objects like streetcars. Point valid And you mentioned raising the earnings tax rate, and I

think this is the reason. Maybe they know, based upon the promises and whatever restrictions are placed on the one point six billion dollars that they have to put that toward existing infrastructure and therefore can't build the second leg of the street car. Maybe they want all this extra revenue because money's fungible. If it doesn't come from the earnings on the one point six billion investment, then they can use it to go for new shiny objects and things that they that they want.

There are three hundred and fifty thousand properties in Hamlin County. Sixty thousand properties got a twenty five percent increase or more, and a lot of those were in Avondale and Price Hill and Westwood more Side. I mean, some of them were outrageous. And these people are struggling. And I know the number of people who failed to pay their property tax in June. I don't want to say it's the highest, but it definitely went up over the previous year because people just couldn't forward to pay it.

Maybe people go that way. So and but you know, again, there's a lot of small businesses, the local hardware store, the local shoeshine guy. You know those places need help too because they have to push those prices onto us.

cut services. This is a fund that will make the same payment the city budget, will get the same amount of money because it'll come from this budget, from this this fund we set up, so city will get their twenty nine million or thirty two million this year, and there will be no cuts to police or fire or social programs or all the stuff they do. And you know, because that's what they generally do. When you want to cut taxes, they go, oh, we're going to have to

cut services. Nope, there'll be no no cut unless they cause a cut. But they'll get the same amount of money. But yeah, waiting for Columbus, it just it just takes a long time to get stuff there because we're a very diverse state. And you know what, the people on Mason they don't care and their rest doesn't care. And now now they care when they got to keep a tennis center and they want the city to send at the state to pay hundreds of millions of dollars to

keep that. And we kind of come along because you know, that's that's politics. We make the sausage. But you know, so they may get around to doing something, but it just takes time.

want to do streetcar expansion with that money. It's the how do they market that and call, well, this is infrastructure. We already have a streetcar, so we're just improving the existing streetcar. Oh, we need an arena. Remember they expanded the convention center twenty years ago, declaring it was an act of war and we were in a state of war with other cities who had convention centers, and they that's the excuse they used to raise our earnings tax

to pay for the convention center expansion. So they'll use any argument or anything they have to to do things like those big shiny objects like you talked about. So I'm not so sure that they planned on doing fixing that guy Street to once the pottobles fix with that money. I think they have their designs on something big so AFTEB can ride off into another office or in the DC or something like that. So I'm not I questioned their motive.

top priority at Kings Island. Over the past two years, there have been increasing incidents of unruly and inappropriate behavior across our industry at other major entertainment of venues committed to keeping Kings On a place where families and friends can come together and enjoy one of a kind part full of fun experiences and immersive entertainment. As part of the commitment, we are implementing a chaperone policy. Here you go.

All guests fifteen years old or younger must have a chaperon who's at least twenty one years old on Saturday starting at two pm. Other day starting at four pm, chaperon must show a valid government IDEA with their data birth at birth and ticket entry.

they may be denied entry. Guests fifteen years old and younger may be ejected from the park if they do not follow the code of conduct and do not have a chaperone. That rule applies to all guests, including King's Island season pass holders. So there you go. Chaperone policy

kicking in Police Chief Batavia, but heave. According to Chief Jim Young, I was notified today five pm, this is yesterday, that I am being placed on administrative leave with pay pending an investigation of an allegation of misconduct on duty. I am unaware of what the allegation consists of, but I trust that Mayor ronk will do a full, complete investigation determine the facts. Fox nineteen reporting on this when they reached out to the mayor for comment and they

have not yet heard from him. Acting Police Chief Corporal Christopher Warner according to confirmation recently they have ten sworn officers in the police department. And in other related news sort of condentding, we would go to Milford where the city manager and Milford announced yesterday that the city manager is resigning. City of Milford announced it anyway. Michael Dawes said he was resigning due to personal reasons and a statement.

The state said it would appoint an interim manager within the coming days and didn't expect an interruption in city services. That's a balance on that one and go to Loveland. I love my Loveland and said to read this news. Loveland Police Department talking about car break ends sixteen thefts reported on the same day at the river Ridge apartment complex that happened over night July twenty eighth and twenty ninth.

Residents in other areas and nearby have also The officers say more than thirty cars were broken into, two were stolen a one night in Loveland as well as neighboring jurisdictions. They believe the thieves are using stolen vehicles. Going back to Dan Hill's comment on venez whiling gangs breaking into homes, maybe this is a trend. I don't know. We had a Hundai Launtra stolen from an extended stay in Blue Ash.

Six vehicles broken into the extended stay on Creek Road, fourteen vehicles broken into at the Embassy Suites on Lake Forest Drive. Six thousand dollars was taken from one vehicle lock. You're junk in the trunk or don't leave it in the car. Charmee mcguffee. Five vehicles broken into and suffered damage at courtyard in on Lake Forest Drive. More than a dozen vehicles broken into at various other municipalities on

These are all on various dates. Blue Ash Police say that all jurisdictions in Hamilton County are working together investigate this crime spree, and Loveland Police say there have been no arrests and they haven't identified any suspects yet. Maybe somebody needs a ring, doorbell camera or something shocked. They don't have video that, at least they haven't announced that

they have it yet. This was kind of comical baseball fan who went viral for storming the Great American Ballpark field and doing a backflip only to be tasered by

a police officer. That guy, you may remember him, William Hendon, nineteen years old, captured by video from a bunch of people as well as professional sports photographers hence the online component, running onto the outfield, appearing to talk to Cleveland Guardians player and then doing a backflip before a police officer chased him down and then used a taser on him. He was taken to the Hamlin County Justice Center, booked within an hour, pleaded not guilty to charge the criminal

trespass and obstructing official business. Those charges have now been dropped. I wonder why he was ordered instead to complete a diversion program. Prosecutor say, he's already done that, but he's still banned I guess permanently from Great American Ballpark. I don't know if they're going to lift that ban or not.

Maybe talk to Pete Rose about being banned and then described as a sophomore toal House State University, as well as grandson of former Hamilton County Juvenile Court Judge Sylvia Hendon, who I know really well. Anyway, there you have it. I don't know which judge approved it. Going back to my conversation yesterday with Melissa Bowers, which you can find on the podcast Paid fifty five Care see dot com.

They did, and I think it was just two short days later they had their financing arrangements locked in and now they're happily enjoying their new place and so so happy for them, and they just really raved about working with Susette.

a fan of Donald Trump. The Iranians talking about fake news sites, impersonating activists, stoking division, and an effort to assuade the election. They're going to be using artificial intelligence to generate images that look real, and you're going to be questioning your own eyes and your own ears. There's no question about that. So they've done this before. This is a Microsoft report about the activity that's going on from the Iranians. Nothing from our own elected officials on this.

But Microsoft identified four examples of recent Iranian activity that they expect will increase the closer we get to November. First, group of Iran's revolutionary guards in June targeted high ranking US presidential campaign official with a phishing email. They don't identify which official and which campaign, but I think we can all draw conclusions given that they want to assassinate Donald Trump. At least that's what our officials have said.

Group concealed email's origin by sending it from the hacked email account of a former senior advisor. Then try to log into the account belonging to the former presidential candidate. But we're not successful, according to Microsoft. But you see they're trying Separately, they created websites that pose as US based news sites, targeting voters on opposite side of the

political spectrum. According to the report from Microsoft, one fake news site lends itself to left leaning audience, insults Trump, calling him raving mad, suggesting that he uses drugs. You see, if you read it on the internet, it's true. Abraham Lincoln said that they point out another site meant to appeal to Republican readers, centers on LGBTQ issues and gender affirming surgery, which of course the Iranians wouldn't be in favor of But what's the point stirring division? They don't

care where division comes from. As long as you and I are at each other's throats in this country over any given issue. That's the power of social media, and our foreign adversaries know all about it. Why are we always yelling at each other and why are we always so uncivil to each other over things that really don't matter to the vast majority of the American people, Like whether or not you're trans. I'm on in the record, don't care. I'm entitled to my own belief systems, though

you know what I mean. I'm entitled to follow science with X and Y chromosomes and X and X chromosomes and determining someone's gender, whether they identify as somebody else, that's beyond my control. But I do believe in science, and you can't tell me that I'm wrong when I believe in science. Right, we can live with each other under those parameters. Just don't teach my children that there's

no difference between the sexes. Third example, Microsoft found the running groups are impersonating US activists, laying the groundwork for influence operations as we get closer to the election. That on the heels of another article. I found a Chinese American posing as a pro democracy activist has been convicted of spying for China, facing up to I believe, twenty five years in prison. He starts ar did a pro

well an anti China pro democracy site. Chinese nationals joined the site and wanted to work with him, believing him to be above board and in fact pro democracy, which flies in the face of what the Chinese Communist Party wants. Turns out, Wang Shoo John No, he is actually working for the chiacoms. He was gathering information about these individuals who joined his organization and handed it over to the Chinese Communist Party.

swing state. Not clear in that one whether the cyber attack was related to election interference efforts, but nonetheless Microsoft is pointing out that this is going on real time right now and rate waiving a giant red flo lag of warning that it's going to continue and ramp up. That's just Iran. Do you think China's going to take a hands off approach? Do you think the Russians going to take a hands off approach North Korea? Are they

going to be taking a hands off approach? Are they just going to let us make up our own minds and try not to influence the hearts and minds of Americans as we get closer in November. Division it's all about division, destroying the concept that we all live under in this country up until recently, which is that we enjoy freedoms that no one else has, and those freedoms includes differences of opinions, the freedom to exercise one's individual

thought and make one's individual choices. No, no, no, no, There'll be no more of that. Can't even stand beneath the American flag with a mixed group of people beneath it and at least point to that flag as a symbol of the aforementioned freedom and just try to get

along based upon that unifying principle.

Check out five thirty eights polling on that Brown votes ninety eight percent with the Biden administration. So go ahead, look at all the policies and all the trillions of dollars that have been dumped into this economy over the past few years, with the Green New Deal and the Inflation Reduction Act, and go on and on and on and on and on.

Anyway, Brown, speaking with CNN, said, I often skip conventions because he's not going to the Democratic Convention this year, maybe because he wants to separate himself and sort of try to maintain this posture that he's actually a moderate of some sort, which he can't get away with here in the morning show Washington Free

Break and took a look at this. They looked at the public records, newspaper archives and what's available out there and found out, well, no, you don't often skip conventions. You've only missed one since nineteen eighty four. First Democratic convention in nineteen eighty four, then he was Secretary of State here in Ohio. He spoke alongside prominent Democrats in order to boost Walter Mondale's candidacy. How well did that work out? Fast forward to nineteen eighty eight Democratic National

Convention in Atlanta, Georgia. He was there. Then he missed the nineteen ninety two Democratic National Convention in Manhattan. That's the same year he was first elected to Congress. Four years later, He's back Chicago nineteen ninety six, received exclusive tour Wrigley Field apparently, and he also took a few swings in the batting cage and ran the bases at Wrigley Field while attending the Democrat convention. He went to

the twenty on two thousand and four convention. Back in two thousand and eight, he hosted a town fall event was broadcast on c SPAN from the convention. Twenty twelve convention, he sat next to President of Tim Ryan from Ohio during the Democratic festivities in Charlotte, North Carolina. He was given a primetime speech at the Democratic National Convention in twenty sixteen. Where are all these conventions that he was missing?

The two thousand are? The twenty twenty Democratic Democratic National Convention was virtual, you may recall that, but he still appeared remotely in a segment called America Recovering Stories of Survival, and according to Brown, that year's convention was one of the best. Quote. I've been to a lot of conventions for a lot of years, and I thought the single best moments I've ever seen were the role Call of

the States last night. Referring again to the twenty twenty convention where Joe Biden, the feeble old man whose cognitive decline was being hidden by every Democrat, including the current nominee for the Democratic presidential election this year. Anyway, people have a record, you can't hide from it. And going back to my comments about Kamala Harrison, literally everyone in all sides of the media now going what the hell does she stand for? She has a record she's run on.

So if you're question marking where she might hound out how she might run the administration, just look at where she was and all the issues and what she said out loud. I think her words actually mean something. Tech Frida be Dave had her Dan Hills during the program to talk about the FOP endorsements, and of course Tom brick and Brickman breaking down why he wants to take six hundred million out of the railroad money and use it for tax cuts for the Cincinnati City homeowners. Draw

your own conclusions on that one. You'll be able to sign a petition, I think beginning as early as Monday on that have a wonderful, wonderful weekend. Tune in Monday for money Monday, and Christopher Smithman, I hope you have a fantastic weekend. Like I said before, Joe Drecker, thanks for all that you do. Stick around, Glen Beex coming right up history string as it happens. Never before has an election mattered so much.
