55KRC Monday Show - Cory Bowman, Smitherman, Money Monday, Dane Donovan

the property tax reform from last week. Brigham Accown in the studio from the Hudson Institute, the Energy policy guru. He is it's some interesting updates on that national energy policy changing under the Trump administration fairly dramatically and I think in the right direction anyway. A little bit on that a little bit later, of course, Tech Friday with Dave Hatter. I think it's appointment listening he's offering some

really important information information. Again, you can get a fifty five care seat I Comedy can't listen live coming up on the fifty five caresee Morning show Man who's made it in the news. A lot of late Corey Bowman running from Mayor of the City. Since then, of course, they've been asking him for his comments and reaction to the horrific beat down that occurred last weekend. Lots and lots of national attention on that, and of course the

press conference has passed over. On the first of August. Updates on that if you can get to see a Christopher smith and of course he'll be joining the program Corey at seven five Topics the mayors and you decide. Was it an embarrassing press conference? A lot of community leaders in there offering their thoughts and comments and their takes on what little video we've got or what video

we do have. Please Chief Fie, she said she's got a lot more that she may be releasing this this week and maybe don't jump to conclusions anyway, we'll get his thoughts on the latest news from downtown Cincinnati seven oh five for Corey Bowman Christopher Smithman. It is Monday, every Monday eight at seven twenty we get to hear from the former vice mayor of the City of Cincinnati. I suspect the subject matter will be the same as it was last week as the beatdown. Anyway, Monday, Monday,

it is Monday. We'll get Brian James every Monday at eight oh five. Today Trump to name a new FED chair. Really, I know he's looking for one, going to let the term run out from by all accounts, But we'll find out from Brian what his take is on that. Are the labor statistics calculated incorrectly? Donald Trump says they are. Somebody lost their job over that one. And should high schoolers have to take a personal finance course? Well, yeah,

is that a rhetorical question. I think it's important. You know, it's interesting if you learn household economics, you know how to balance a checkbook, or you know, only spending the money that comes in and not more than the money that comes in, the idea that there's interest that you have to pay on credit card debt, and you know,

on and on and on. All those things translate from and it's important to know that kind of thing, not just because you can manage your finances within your own household. But they create a perception of what it takes to be financially responsible. So when you see your elected officials digging us into this massive, insurmountable debt, you think I could never run my house that way.

that they have. It's in top running order and they're looking for folks to nominate people in need that could use a car, a good running car that Donovan's has repaired and in top running order. So an opportunity for you to help someone out and need Dane Donovan to join the program at eight forty to talk about that and a salute to Donovan's they do a great job, really great job. AH five on three seven eight hundred and eighty two to three talk found five fifty on

AT and T phones. I don't know if the event is sold out. I tend to think it is, and I'm referring to this This evening's Jim and jack v V Ramaswami U meeting with of course Christophers Hyman's going to be there. It's at Jim and Jackson the River five point thirty. I saw the announcement for the press. I think the door opens for the press at four pm, and you had to RSVP now. As of Friday, the

rsv site on VVG for Ohio was still open. I just checked it this morning and there is no mention of this town hall on his website, so I suspect that maybe it's already sold out. The one person I have a feeling who knows west Side, Jim Keefer. I texted him this morning to find out if he had any idea. Christopher Smithman, if you're listening right now, if you have any idea, maybe you can let us know at seven twenty when you're on. But that is tonight

at Jim and Jackson the River. It should be rather interesting hearing from well. All kinds of folks are invited. As of late Friday, his VVG for Ohio website was still accepting RSVPs, and again I checked it this morning and couldn't see a link to it. That doesn't mean that it isn't there. It's just that my cursory review of the website well showed no information about it. Anyway.

Since our officials had an August first press conference to address the videos that are circulating regard to the attacks in downtown Cincinnati, which portrayed the city and what they

thought was a cynical and unfair manner. Hm, I have to have Purval mayor, he was there, actually showed up for something, please, Chief Threes, Thigi Cheryl Long, the city manager, along with community leaders including Damon Lynch, who reached his own independent conclusions based upon what he perceives to be reality. Purval said that it's overt racial tensions that have been claimed by irresponsible leaders who have unfortunately cynically tried to

take advantage of this awful fight and try to divide us. Huh. This is kind of a message theme that goes on throughout the press conference. What do politicians do when events like this pop up? They try to work them to their own advantage. This is what politicians do. It doesn't matter which side of the political ledger you're on. If something's going to come up to provide you a vehicle

to make some comments or draw some conclusions. Politicians typically grab the bull by the horns and do exactly that. I don't know why this comes as some surprise. This doesn't come as a surprise. It's just they're trying to make it out to be. This is this is terrible. This is terrible. Five men and one woman subjected to

unimaginable physical violence. Corded to police Chief Teresa Thiji, five men and one woman has a lot more people involved in receiving beatdowns or other physical attacks than originally reported. We thought it was just the two that were there and the little video that we've got. Six people have been charged, Four have been arrested.

jumped on other black people. Well, you know what, I'll can see the point maybe, And this is something that I always find puzzling. There is no community uproar when it's black on black crime. Your pause to think about that. Statistically speaking, a lot of crime at black on black crime. There is a lot of it out there. There are murders, there are beatdowns, there's physical assaults, all kinds of things that go on never makes the national news. Maybe it

has been racialized. I think the appalling nature of it was that, regardless of what happened to start the fight, that this constant, this continual beating just went on and on and on. Does the motivation for the original altercation have any connection with the just savage nature of the beating? And I suspect maybe if this savage beating was, you know, on involving people of any racial background, that it might be in the national news. Look, this is horrific behavior.

The conduct is inexcusable, most notably the beatdown of Holly, who appeared to be just an innocent bytanp. Biston are trying to render aid. See her story seems to be pushed off to the side. When you start talking about some racial slur that's been uttered or may not have been. I don't know. The white guy that got the beatdown may have uttered something racial. Is that justification? But you know, push to the side is Holly who just got punched

in the face, and she wasn't doing anything wrong. There's no suggestion that she uttered anything racial. Damon Lynch said it was a street fight and not a racially motivated attack. Where did he get his information? Any can anybody say definitively what this was? Lynch said that what he saw in the video was a black man and a white man engaged in a verbal dispute. A second black man stepped in attempted to de escalate the situation. Then the white man slapped the third black man, and after that

the white man was met with disproportionate force. Damian Lynch's words, and I all agree with those words. And then he pivoted over to wonder why only black people have been arrested. He is, when I see the mugshots, I only see people who look like me. I don't see the person who slapped another black man, so I don't see the slapper's mug shot. Well, wait a minute, isn't that a racially motivated statement? Fiji said the police department's investigation is ongoing.

More video footage they have in their possession, but it hasn't been released. Addressing Damon Lynch, he goes Reverend Lynch explained what we saw when he saw the footage, which is the footage that has been extensively reviewed by the public. Probably early next week that will be either name today or maybe sometime later this week. I will be releasing additional footage, including body warn camera footage that tells a

little bit more of the story. But right now I need to let the investigators continue to do their jobs. She previously said back on July twenty eighth in a press conference that the video footage that you and I have seen is missing context, saying social media, the post that we've seen is not to pick the entire incident. That's one version of what occurred. The times, social media and mainstream media and their commentaries are misrepresentations of the

circumstances surroundny given event. And again, does this come as a surprise anybody. They're acting like this is some sort of new revelation. Oh my god, this has never happened before. People speculating on something that they've seen without all of the information. Jeez, I address that all the time. You know, I'm gonna keep my popcorn out and wait till I get more information before I reach any given conclusion, because

that's what smarter people do. Some people benefit from stirring the pot and drawing early conclusions, quite often community activists, people with political agendas.

yet yet. Councilman Scottie Johnson, chair of the City's Council's City Cincinnia Council's Public Safety Committee, quote, when you continuously run a loop where you have national leaders that are speaking irresponsibly, showing black and white people trying to knock each other's heads off, what role do you play media in continually showing that level of violence. He's having a go at media.

They're appalled and shocked that people would go out on social media and the media would actually report on this. Is it not newsworthy what we saw so far, even not having all the facts and information, that people could get so savage and beat people to the ground and continue to beat them after they have been thoroughly well, after they lost the battle. And then I'll pivot back over to Holly surprisingly absent, at least in so far as the focus of the the propriety of the response,

I guess is a way of answering it. Lynch. David Lynch, third Qu's National Republican Vice President, J. D. E. Vance of eve A Ramaswami, Bernie Moreno of politicizing the fracas. Well, you know a lot of us are concerned about law and order in this great land of ours, and Democrat policies and and lack of tough enforcement on crime has increased crime in a lot of cities around this country. And I think that may be one of the reasons why it's really a focus from national attention. It is

a symptom of a bigger problem. This isn't the only illustration of violence in the system. This isn't the only illustration where we feel unsafe. This is just one more story to add to a general sort of feeling in the country that these left wing policies, that no cash bond kind of policies, the slap on the wrist for heinous crime policies, the soft on crime policies. You can see the deterioration across the system. You can see it in multiple cities where they have adopted these light on

crime defund the police, reimagine the police. We want law and order, we expect it, and this is clearly a situation reflecting a lack of law and order. Where were the police. Apparently eleven officers were downtown in the business district during that night. They didn't expect anything to happen, Fiji said, was kind of normal. Things normally quiet down after two am. By way of history, you know, so you know this this is what we've been doing. We're

doing it for years. Music festivals, red games, whatever's going on, this is not new territory for us, she said at the conference. As far as policing, we work with a schedule that we think is best for events that are occurring. Well, sometimes you got to expect the unexpected. But shocked, shocked there's gambling going on in here. I'm shocked the media would report this. So I have twenty fifty five k

City Talk station, Roger. I will take your call just a minute, If you don't mind holding for a moment, I'll get right to you right back.

Might there be repercussions for hitting someone who's not involved in the beating, perhaps yes? But legally speaking, eminent apprehension of grievous bodily harm or fear of death under reasonable circumstances, would a reasonable person in that position believe their life is in peril? And I don't think anybody can say that would be unreasonable under those circumstances. Five twenty five fifty five kc DE talk station. Every single incident has

to be looked at individually. I'm just giving you the general legal standard for deadly force stigre out. I got local stories. Are more phone calls? Will Tom call this morning? Question mark be right back.

block away from me now infamous intersection. Uh and we we came unscathed, enjoyed it so much on Saturday, we actually went back Sunday and did the same thing so well. You know, nine ten o'clock in the morning is not really a bad time to go to town on the weekend.

somebody wrote and Israel before they end us. And my first thing I did was chuckle because of how absolutely ridiculous that statement is, because you're you're talking about a country that, I mean, what for the last hundred years has been pretty much running for their lives, if not longer than that, you can go back to maybe if you read the Bible, you can go way back to when when they set up the Promised Land thousands and

thousands of years ago. But other than that, we're talking about a nation that's been kind of trying to just be left alone and live their life, and they're not going around conquering people. I don't understand this fear and this I mean, what is this Israelophobia or something that's absolutely that there's no sense whatsoever to something like that

worrying about what Israel's gonna do to you. If you go after Israel, you should start worrying then if you attack them, because they they're pretty formidable and defending themselves, but they're not They're not trying to bother anyone or conquer anyone or make anyone believe what they want to believe. That sounds like so maybe some other countries or or religions or whatever. That's absolutely insane. But this is how the left, and I am convinced it's somebody from the

left that wrote that. And we hear all this garbage from the left, you know, against Israel and all. You know, a lot of this anti Semitism crap, it's mostly, if not all, coming from the left. It's it's it's just it's fear mongering to try to make them look bad when it's absolutely insane and ridiculous. And these people who don't want media coverage on this stuff, it's only because they the media coverage is pointing out how bad they look. Don't vote Democrats. Have a great Dame Bright.

end of story. It's as if you know, they weren't there one day and they were there the next day. Somebody had to be displaced to create the nation, and ergo the displaced, I think is the source of the anger and frustration toward Israel. Wait a second, how is it that this used to be my house. In nineteen forty eight, I was displaced and booted out of the country.

I grew up with the family next door of Palestinian family who basically leased by hurt by the accounts of Swad Seafree, the late Great, she said they actually were under gunfire as they fled their home and were displaced. So different perceptions depending upon where you spring from and your view of history in that situation. Let's do what Bobby's got this morning. Bobby, welcome to the Morning Show, and a happy Monday to you, sir.

that's the legal analysis. The question of whether it is reasonable to use deadly force is one for a jury or judge. If it's being tried in front of the judge, it's a question of fact. That's one for the jury decide. It's not a question of law. The law is the way I stated it, But whether it was reasonable, that's something a jury determines. So you are putting your hands

or your fate in the hands of the jurors. But ask yourself the question, Wait a second, if I hadn't used deadly force, would I even be around to make the argument why? People quite often said I'd rather put my life in the hands of twelve five thirty five right now for you, five k CD talk station cull In Electric Outstanding electricians at Colin Electric, and they've got

Again that reporting from not that many hours ago, five actually right before the mike went

on this morning. Thank you Joe for flagging that one for me over to the stack, Oh stupid employed to Wing Stop be a wing joint in Tennessee accused of throwing hot cooking oil onto two patrons during a disagreement. Why are you doing that? Let's find out together. Twenty five year old Jonesea Herring now facing agri at a salt charge. According to the complaint, ledge attack happened on July twenty second, two women enter the wing stop to pick up an order. Once inside the restaurant, they became

embroiled in an argument with this Herring woman. As the two patrons were quote continuing to argue with Herring. This is from the report. Obviously, Herring went to the kitchen, grabbed a bowl filled with hot cooking oil, and the defendant is then said to have walked back and threw the bowl of hot oil onto the women.

that woman, regardless of whatever they were arguing about. Sound familiar, Have that a familiar ring to it? Airingplaced in the Shelby Kenny jail. Seventy five hundred dollars bond schedule be arigned according to the police and As of over the weekend, she was no longer listening to jails inmate roster Auster suggesting that yes, she was out on bond.

an employee wanted to leave her shift early. Memphis police departments that received a call from the restaurant twenty minutes after five pm. Cour to the local NBC affiliate WMC, it was Bowers who made the call. As officers were on the way to the scene, they received additional reports that a shot had been fired and a person was hit. Police arrived reportedly found Stephen Shepherd in the Wendy's parking lot with a gunshot wound to his stomach. He was

hospitalized and later died. Court documents alleged Bowers is the one who shot him, with the bail screening form for the suspect claiming he shot and killed the victim while the two were fighting. Employee he wanted to leaver shift early called Shepard to pick her up after Bowers threatened to slap her. Sometime after Shepherd arrived, the two men started fighting. In a video posted on social media showed

parts of the violent confrontation. Oh Yes, Shepherd can be seen throwing a punch of demand said to be Bowers were Bowers in his Wendy's attire, appears to hold the two clasped together hands in front of him, Shortly before a gunshot is heard. That man then walked over to the gunshot victim appears to slap him in the face. Shepherd, reportedly unarmed. Witness told local news the person that got shot he ended up swinging on the manager of the store,

and the manager pulled out a gun and shot him. Hmm, well he already had his gun in his hand, Thank you, Joe, And I don't think you can justify deadly force in this particular situation. Apparently the victim of the suspect knew each other. Courting the police, Bowers said to have not resisted arrest and admitted to being the one who fired the shot. Oh temper temper temper fortify five kersee talk station QC kinetics. Getting out of bed, you hit the

You need to nominate that person, and they are determined to be in need. They may be the winner of a free automobile from Donovan's, so that'd be at eight point forty back over the stack is stupid? Got a Wisconsin woman tried to kill her father while hallucinating that he was the living embodiment of

the devil what? Thirty four year old Jamie Anderson stands accused of one kind of attempted intentional homicide of the first degree by use of a dangerous weapon. Charge includes domestic abuse assessment, which might be considered essentially akin to a minor sentencing enhancement anyway. July first is when it happened at the father's home, small town about twenty miles

southeast of Madison. Accord to the Stoughton Police Apartment, early morning hours, Anderson allegedly walked some sixteen miles from her Madison apartment to her father's residence, rang the doorbell when the defendant's father finally awoke and answered the door. Anderson first said she wanted to stop hallucinating all right. Next, she had said to have asked her father for a hug. In response, however, her father said that he had asked

her if she was on drugs. That question allegedly prompted Anderson to try and stab her father in the head. Multiple stabbing attempts allegedly ensued. In some of those efforts, drew blood. I'm going to kill you, she allegedly rep They fought. The scuffle continued outside. Woman's father told responding officers he eventually had to push his daughter over a coffee table so he could escape this safety. About six am, officers found the man on his front step with blood

from his left arm. He said to the police, she actually came here to kill me. Father said his daughter was still somewhere inside the house. Defendant discovered walking down a stairway on the side of the house into an alleyway, knife in hand. Police asked her to drop the blade. The defendant immediately complied and was arrested without incident. She allegedly told police she hallucinates and thought her father was the devil. She that allegedly went on to admit cutting

or slashing him roughly four times. The defendant allegedly further admitted her plan was to kill him because she wanted him dead. Women's father suffered serious injuries from the attack, resulting in staples and his head and surgery on one arm, and comments to police. He allegedly struck a somewhat conciliatory tone, saying the incident was not her and that her mind is cooked due to her drug use. Bond five hundred thousand dollars with a no contact order. Dane County Jail

is where she's being held now. Definitely not Hamilton. Kind of with that kind of bond, Joe, they would have, Yeah, they would have. Just that, you would have gotten an ankle monitor and a cookie.

Michelle Narrens and Henry Betsy married in Hernando County back in November twenty two. New wife said they met on match dot Com. Hit it off quickly got married within three weeks. Then it changed when she realized he was still married to another woman. Brandy Allen had married Henry Betsy February doing idiot things because they're idiots. Yep, they're said to have met on the dating app. As I mentioned, he said all the right things. One woman noted who

had legally become Brandy Betsy. We got married right there at the courthouse, no questions asked. There was nothing that was flagged in the system for him already having two prior open marriage licenses, so the whole process took fifteen minutes. But even then, before Michelle Betsy was in the picture, there was another woman whom Henry Betsy had given his last name, Tanya Betsy, who realized last year what her

husband had done. Tanya and Henry reportedly got married in Duval County, Florida, November of twenty twenty after meeting on Tinder. She told local news the way he portrayed himself, he sold the perfect person, when in reality he was none of those things. Michelle said, Tanya found her and messaged her, and I had no idea that she was still married

to him. The newest wife said Henry, resident Seminole County, Florida, when on October twenty third, twenty four, he showed up at the Sheriff's office headquarters and advice that he was currently wanted and wished to turn himself in. He says he filed for divorce from Tanya after his arrest, now working to annull his other two marriage. When he apologized in court to the women and everyone involved during the hearing, Chel Betsy didn't believe it was genuine. Really five fifty

six five care see the dogs. They and plenty more coming up and phone calls are always welcome, So if you want to call, I would enjoy talking with you. I'll be right back.

If you're a member of the media, you're supposed to RSVP, and I believe the media has access beginning at four pm. The door is actually open at five point thirty. Have it on good account from Westside, Jim Keeper, you need to get their ear But I don't think that you have to RSVP. So I'm in a state of question mark with that one right now, because there was some mention of an RSVP on the vv vvake for Ohio

dot com website. But again, Jim and Jackson the River for the discussion about well crime in general and maybe solutions in the aftermath of the violence this past over this week ago Saturday morning. Of course, we all know what we're talking about on that one. Christopher Smithland at seven to twenty with a smith event. He'll be there tonight Monday, Monday of Brian James at eight oh five

New Fed Chair. Maybe labor stats had they been calculated incorrectly, as Donald Trump concluded, they have been and finally, should high schoolers have to take a personal finance course, to which I say, of course, it sounds like a rhetorical question. And then Dane Donovan on the program at the end talk about this wonderful opportunity for someone in need to get a car twenty thirteen Subaru outback for a deserving neighbor in the Cincinnati community. Donovan's given back. So the

Donovans Care with car in caps. Yes, giveaway, Donovan Cares giveaway, So make your nomination. We'll get the details from Dane at eight forty. Without further deal, let's go to the phones five on three seven eight hundred eight two three talk. Jordan, thanks for calling this morning, Welcome to the Morning Show.

The third is the reverend. You're referring to string the pod and calling it and claiming it's not it wasn't a racially motivated attack, and expressing dismay that the press would actually report on it. That was a theme throughout the press conference. I can't believe the media would even report on this. I can't believe that. Oh come on, I mean, it's insane. Of course the media's gonna report. And you know, and I'll go back to what I said in the last hour. You are part of the media.

Everybody's part of the media. You have access to the opportunity to post online. Yes, the answer is so maybe you were there, you can report on what you said. Maybe you have concluded and based upon your own review of the video, that you have a definitive answer to the question. You're allowed to go on and say something like that. You may do it at your own peril. You might want to wait till all the facts are

in Police chief three. So Thigi said she's got a whole bunch of more video that will be released this week, which tells perhaps a different tale. We're a ready fire aim on a society anymore. You see something you immediately comment on and draw your own conclusions. And perhaps that's wrong, but shocking. I'm shocked that the media and people online would actually go down this road. Not just it's rather comical that they act like this just doesn't happen all

the time. Yes, it makes the city Cincinnati look bad. Welcome to reality, and you know, maybe it isn't bad. Crime statistics, depending on where you're looking, they're either up in certain areas or down in certain areas. But we live in a day of modern social media. Literally everyone's got a video phone, and apparently, as evidence by the beatdown, people are more inclined to record something than actually call in law enforcement to help stop the problem from happening

or stop the crime from going on. I mean, so it's gonna get posted online. Everybody wants to be the person that got the video. Ah, it was me social media, x y Z at so and so it was me. I was there, I saw it. Look look what I posted five minutes ago. In history, we didn't have access to video like this. It wasn't out there for the entire world to see. It's the flavor of the moment. Does anybody think this is going to be an ongoing

topic and discussion in this country? With everything that's going on in the world, this does not or will not have the legs of perhaps a George Floyd type incident, now will it? Hey organized protests like five minutes after that happened. Black Lives Matter was born from that. They had an entire organization. Millions and millions of dollars contributed to the Black Lives Matter organization, describe themselves self described Marxist. I guess there's still a thing out there somewhere that

had legs. What's your opinion? Do you think this is going to be you know, talked about down the road much longer than you know, the the realities of the world where everything gets like five minutes of a ten. Then we all move on with our lives and don't talk about it anymore. I'll just kick back and wait and see. But going back to and I'm going to get back to this use of deadly force thing. It's

been brought up quite a few times under the circumstances presented. Yes, I do believe that the guy that was getting the beat down, or even the woman for that matter, that got her flights punched out, were she in a position actually you know, cognitively think about defending yourself. Yes, subjected to a brutal could could have been deadly beat down.

If you're faced with eminent apprehension of bodily harm or or reasonable fear of death or grievest bodily harm, that is when you have the right to use deadly force. And I'll go back to the point I made. Prosecutors could still bring charges against you for using deadly force, and you have a right to defend yourself were you

being reasonable at the time. And since we got all this video of these guys get issuing a brutal beat down, the reason for which we are unaware, but certainly nothing but way of verbal abuse could justify getting the crap beat. Added to the extent that that man and that woman suffered that beating, they would legitimately be fearing for their life, and they could go in and make that argument in court if they were charged for using deadly force. And

of course that didn't exist here. No one used deadly force. But pivot over. You may remember this, it's been five years. Speaking of Black Lives Matter protests, the Saint Louis couple who brandished weapons against the Black Lives Matter protests five years ago finally got their confiscated guns back after what is described as a lengthy legal battle. Mark McCloskey and his wife, Patricia. They happen to both be lawyers, which puts them in a better position to actually be able

to defend themselves. They went viral, oh look after wielding guns on their property, this after Black Lives Matter protest has broke down an iron gate and ignored a no trespassing sign back in June of twenty twenty, God, it's been that long, Mark mcclusty, posting the past Friday on x account. It only took three lawsuits two trips to the Court of Appeals in one thousand and forty seven days. But I got my AR fifteen back. We defended our home.

Noticed sight dwelled on that word. We were persecuted by the left smeared by the press, and threatened with death, but we never backed down. This is the current concern of a lot of people who carry concealed or otherwise firearm owners. Gee, you know I have a right to use it under certain circumstances, but will they go after me? Notwithstanding that, the answer absolutely Patrician mccloskey's Braiko three to eighty pistol, don't ever buy one, probably one of the

most the cheapest, most unreliable firearms ever manufactured. My editorial comment is expected to return be returned this week. Mark McCloskey said on Saturday, he said the AR fifteen ended up in the possession of the Saint Louis Metropolitanoloe Department. The Lewis Sheriff's Department got the Brico handgun. I don't know why they're keeping it, but McCloskey said they felt threatened by the mob which was marching as part of the George Floyd protest. Now no one was hurt. But

here's what he had to say about it. When you're facing three hundred and fifty to five hundred people screaming death and arson, I'm going to rape and kill your wife. I'm going to burn down your house. I'm going to burn down your office building. I'm going to kill your dog. The fact that we were able to hold them off is proof of the value of the Second Amendment and the absolute reason why we should resist every attempt on the part of government to restrict, control, or remove those rights.

Police seized weapons. Mccloskey's charged with unlawful use of a weapon. The prosecutor described as a Democrat. They did plead guilty to miss Demeter, fourth degree assault and second degree harassment. But here's where the rubber meets the road on this.

Would they have gotten their firearms back after having that plea They were pardoned by Missouri Governor Mike Parson On In August of twenty twenty one, Mark McCloskey filed a lawsuits he can return of the guns and refund of the eight hundred and seventy two dollars and finds a couple paid. Appeals Court confirmed last month that the convictions had been expunged, meaning you treated as if the incident never happened. So as a consequence of the pardon, the

predicate for taking the firearms disappeared. They finally got them back, but noticed it had to go to the Court of Appeals for that isn't that crazy? But question did they have a reasonable fear for their lives? They brandished firearms, which you can't do unless it's under certain justification. It's argued that they were defending their property, not their lives, and therein lies the distinction that we need to focus on. You can't use deadly force in defense of plain old property. Now,

i Ohio, you got the castle doctrine. It is presumed under the law that if someone breaks into your home and enters your dwelling, that they are in fact there to do grievous bodily harm or to kill you. So you can use deadly force as someone kicks in your door and comes in. But once you leave the house, then it becomes a different landscape legally, and you can't use deadly force to defend property. Someone's stealing your car, your life is not in danger. You can't start unloading

on them with a firearm. So I'm not quite sure now. Of course the prosecutors went after the mcloskey's on this, and of course the media had this and then in their crosshairs, you know, Pun intended on that. But ultimately you can decide whether justice was served. I'm not quite sure. In this particular case it was six sixteen fifty five K See the talk station Prestige Interior for your ultimate

Tom Bryan said, Hi, five one three two four seven zero two two nine. That's two four seven zero two.

any other weapon close quote. Not even sure what that means anyway, but the one big beautiful Bill Act that was passed reduces that two hundred dollars registration fee, which actually has been in place. Two hundred dollar fee was enacted in nineteen thirty four, so there's been a substantial devaluation of the dollars since then. I get that in a minute, but it still requires registration. So they got rid of the fee and they moved it from two

hundred down to zero. But they wanted to completely remove all the items under the NFA completely, But apparently the rules regard art in the Big Beautiful Bill Act and what could be in there in terms of reconciliation and not allowed them to remove the fee. But the possibility of that fee being replaced or enacted in a separate follow up legislation, maybe by Democrats, has kind of thrown

this into a bit of a legal quandary. They claim that by lowering it to zero, it neutralizes the National Firearms Act taxing authority, making it an illegal firearms registry. They want to report to remove the items from the regulation completely. Now, machine guns and quote unquote destructive devices are still subject to this tax. In this registration. Planets include the National Rifle Association of the Second Amendment Foundation Soon,

the Bureau Alcohol Tobacco, owned firearms, and others. They expressed confidence in the legal basis for the lawsuit and the press conference and out of the Constitution grants Congress only limited powers, none of which authorize the registration of privately

owned firearms. In fact, as we expect the courts to recognize our case, the Second Amendment forbids it nineteen thirty seven, US Supreme Court ruled at this National Firearms Act is a legal exercise of Congress's taxing authority, finding the government could gather information on the owners of certain firearms and

accessories like suppressors as part of the tax system. So by removing this tax, the planoffs are arguing that they no longer have the authority to require you to sign up and let the government know what you bought, which I think is a sound legal argument. But because the Act only reduced the tax rather than eliminated it, gun control proponents say, well, you can't just just get rid

of the NFA. Now, going back to the value of the dollar, Senate Amendment twenty nine to seventy three that was introduced by Senator Chris Murphy, Democrat from Connecticut, would have raised that two hundred dollars tax to four thousand in seven hundred and nine dollars, which apparently is the equivalent of what two hundred dollars meant to you and me in back in nineteen thirty four, claiming that amendment was to save lives, Well, I you have a firearm

with no suppressor. You have a firearm with a suppressor. Both deadly weapons capable of taking lives just saying out loud the length of a barrel on a firearm does not determine its deadly nature or not. So if you got a barrel shorter than sixteen inches or eighteen inches, it's going to kill you as effectively as one with a longer barrel. So I don't understand the logic and reason behind this, but I do like the argument though no tax, no have no obligation to register. Makes perfect sense.

So we'll see, we'll see. Oh and further, aren't you glad you don't live in a place like Australia. Beginning September first, there is a ban on the sale and possession of machetes machetes similar to the UK's ban on knives. Generally speaking, you gotta handover a photo ID to show you're over the age of twenty one if you want to buy cutlery in the UK. Anyway, no machetes in Australia anymore. Australian Prime Minister Jacintha Allen, she's touting the

brand new drop off boxes at local law enforcement facilities. Yes, machete drop off boxes. On the first of September, when the ban on machetes takes place. We're rolling out through Victoria Police at the two hundred and forty seven police stations. This safe disposal bins. There will be locations right across the state. There'll be locations where people can come in and lawfully dispose of any machete they already have at

one of these bins, safely and securely. Okay, glad we have a second Amendment in this country, six twenty six. Right now if you have KCD talk station. Got some local stories coming up.

of non life threatening injuries. Crazy event. North College Hill and Springfield Township police responded. Woman called nine again a few minutes after midnight, reporting that a white SUV pulled up to her car was she and her boyfriend were on the highway. Speaking of the dispatcher, she said someone in the suv shot up her car and shot her boyfriend.

No that explanation provided by Fox nineteen reporting on this again, the details are kind of sketchy because it just happened this morning, and the report came out right before the mic went on here on the fifty five Ksey Morning Show. Got off the Highway Hamilton Avenue exit, went on to Hamilton Avenue. They were trying to get away from the suv,

but it kept following them. According to the recording a nine one one call, she yelled for her boyfriend to pull over, but then ultimately told him to go, just go. I guess she was freaked out because this suv was tailing them. A woman said the suv was following them. Oh my god, I'm pregnant. She said, I'm nine months pregnant. And then she pointed out her boyfriend was shot. You can even hear him in the background saying I'm shot.

I'm shot, Come get me. As far as the suv, they say it was last scene traveling north on Hamilton Avenue. According to the dispatch log, police found the victims in the woman's car at the Hamilton and Hamilton Avenue in Lake Nol Drive. Mount Healthy fire crewise took them into the hospital. The Well Police both referred Fox nineteen to North College Hill Police for any incury or for any questions, but they are still investigating and had no updates as

of five o'clock this morning. Jeez, since I please investigating a Ku Klux Klan investigator rather Ku Kux Klan flyers that were found in various communities across the city of Cincinni Inquiry Reporting working with Fox nineteen Reporting as well. Spokesperson Jonathan Cunningham confirmed in August third the department's intelligence

units were looking into the matter. The department spokesperson in a news release said, we are committed to maintaining a safe and inclusive environment for all residents and will continue to take all necessary actions to address and prevent the spread of hate in our communities. President of the Madisonville Community Council, Kate Botos said in a post on Facebook that the flyers promoting divide in violence that's in quotes,

were distributed overnight in the neighborhood. Other people posted pictures of the flyers on Facebook, which included call for the people to join the Klan. In response to the fight in downtown Cincinnati, on July twenty sixth Jeez, please surge anyone with information regarding the distribution of the flyers to contact crime stoppers at three five two thirty forty three

five two thirty forty. You see, and in this world where you're all jaded and cynical, now, is that designed by left wingers to stir the potted division and make the people think that the Klan is actually a thing? Still? Do you know anybody who belongs to the Klan? I don't know, but probably out there. I know racism still exists, but geez, talk about an organization that has zero credibility anywhere. Man suffering from life threatening injuries after his shooting occurred.

Happened in North Side late Friday night, according to Captain step and Captain Stephen Bauer, the since A Police department. He said police were called to the forty seven and block of ash Tree Drive about eleven PM. Forty four year old man was shot in the face while in a vehicle taking a UC medical center and police do not have a suspect of this time. Cause of the shooting still an investigation.

is it? And these tactics are so easy to put out there. I mean, how much does it take to print off some flyers and make it look like the Klan is active, alive and well. I didn't see the flyer Warren. I don't know if there was a recruiting number or a website to go to sign out to be a member of the Klan. I didn't read any of that. I doubt that that was.

said Jim Keefer. I just found out there's going to be a counter protest across the street. Naturally, he just sent me a flyer that apparently Indivisible Resistance in Southwest Ohio apparently the organization Big Bold rally for Cincinnati Monday, August fourth, four to thirty pm. Tell v vake Ramaswamy CINCINNTI doesn't want his divisive politics described as across the Street from Jim and Jacks thirty four to fifty six

River Road. Yeah, they're gonna hang out of the railroad tracks. Now, I understand it's a flyer, and I understand if you are not a conservative minded individual, you might not be real high on v.

I mean, he's got all kinds of great ideas that will benefit every Ohio in regardless of political stripe. A wildly successful businessman, a brilliant man, a multi billionaire, made his own fortune. He wants to share that knowledge and expertise with the folks in Ohio. He wants to lead

Ohio out of these sort of dulgrums. That's been in now for decades, energy policy, I mean everything across the board. It's I would hardly call a divisive but that's my take on him. Long into the meeting yourself and see what goes on this eating Tyler. Thank you for calling and welcome to the Morning Show. It's good to hear from you. I'm doing fine for a Monday anyway, Tyler.

that Bigfoot exists, and that the world is flat. You know how many in terms of percentage of population, those people make up very very few. Why because it's insane. You can always find insane people. And yes, there are some racist, insane people out there, and they're the kind of people that would print up racist flyers and try to convince you that it's the right thing to hate your fellow man based purely and simply on the color of their skin. But see, the left doesn't want that.

in his divisive politics. So you know you can show up with that and judge drecker Ford me a post from the controversial if I may be so delicate, Iris Rawley, who first emerged on the scene back in the Cincinni riots. What was that two thousand and one? Going back a long time on that, But she's been an outspoken activist and had some pretty shall we say, divisive Some may

characterize them as hate skewed comments over the years. Certainly some controversial comments in connection with the beatdown that happened this past over the last weekend. Anyway, time to she writes in her Facebook I guess is this Facebook? Or is it x or what is it? Joe Facebook? Time to stand up against hate and violence? Join me tomorrow

this post from yesterday and again referring to the counter protest. Now, if you the purpose of the meeting at Jim and Jack's with the vacant Christopher is to talk about solutions to the violence that's going on in the city. And whether you think that that incident that lasts Saturday makes

us look bad or was blown out of proportion. I think we don't have enough facts for information, really no, But what we do have is what we can see on video, people getting beaten, and most notably, I'll talk about the woman Holly, and she seems to be absent from the discussion. I mean, there's no justification for col cocking a woman in the face who wasn't doing anything. So, yeah, Iris, you want to stand up against hate and violence, let's

stand up and collectively condemn what happened. But that meeting is not about hate and violence. That meeting is not there to foment hate or violence. Vivak Ramaswami is not going to start leading a crowd in a riot on the street. Anybody who's listening to Christopher Smithing over the years is that the type of person you conclude is a hate fil individual. Would you participate in a rally

that would encourage hate and violence? I think clearly not. Again, you know this screaming yell about this video being taken out of proportion, Oh my god, this is you know, it unfairly portrays the city of Cincinnati. Well, Iris, RAWI, you're unfairly portraying what's supposed to go on at Jim and Jackson night at five point thirty. It's what everyone does. I just got that press conference was just a joke.

Keep going back to their criticism of the media and criticism of what we're dealing with here in modern society, which is you are a media outlet. You have the right to speak and say what's on your mind. Everyone does it. Whether you want it to be on them on the internet twenty four to seven. Whether it unfairly characterizes the city of Cincinnati or fairly characterizes it, that's for us to decide. But you think people are gonna

not report on it and keep their mouths shut. You think Iris Rawley's gonna let a meeting tonight at Jim and Jacks led by vvank Ramaswami and Christopher Smith and go without any statement or counter protest. No, of course not. She's gonna blow it out of proportion and mischaracterize it. Look, it's happening again right there. And that's the woman that the Reds honored last week. Joe, Yeah, Okay, you have

a choice when it comes to elected officials. This November, we're gonna be voting for Cincinnia council members, and of course you have a mayoral race. Do you want the status quo? Do you want one city's been living with now for the past four decades, you want to go in a different direction. Corey Bowman joins the program at the top of the our news he is running for mayor.

If you haven't gotten a memo on that one, he's gonna be talking about what he described or at least has been led me to believe based upon the rundown. Here the embarrassing press conference led by Mary f Ted Purvol along with his thoughts on the latest news from downtown Cincinnati. That's Corey Bowman, fallow by Christopher Smithman hate Phil, Yes, of course he is. Now he'll be aud at seven twenty. I hope you can stick around for this.

loll after it. I mean, we've been living a reality the left is it loves to divide us. They were the ones that divide us constantly over every possible issue, political and social. This is what they're all about. Divide and conquer is a strategy for the left, So I find it a little bit hard to swing. I look at like since George Floyd, they have used that to take advantage of this fight and try to divide us racial tensions claimed by irresponsible leaders. I mean, this has

been going on for a long time. Anyway. Your overall reaction to the press conference and where we stand on this incident, Corey Bowman, Yeah, Well, like.

your job of informing the people. And that's what we have to realize is that city Hall, the chief, the mayor, they were silent for an extended amount of time while all this was going on, and the nation's eyes were on our city, and the elected officials are responsible for informing the people about what's going on, and they failed to do so.

the events. Let's talk about the curfew, how officers were specifically told to not cite for violations, and so basically there's glorified babysitters, a short staff force is trying to enforce a curfew, but not enforce a curfew. And then let's talk about how there was not adequate cops that were downtown. And then on top of this, let's talk about how the chief said that there was only one nine to one one call and when they played that,

I'm telling you that's the bold face lie. Because at the screenshot of a lady that called off a Fourth Street at three oh three am and she said that they were very dismissive on the line.

see police officers in squad cars. You're going to see police officers on segways and on segways that have three wheels. You are prioritizing the visibility in our urban core in order not just to maintain safety, even to make sure people feel safe when they're going out. Well, seems like something that people have been clamoring for for a long time. Where's the mayor been since he was elected and prior councils who are pro defunding the police. This is a complete one to eighty.

out loud. Not there to filment violence and anger, as Iris Rawley would suggest, but an opportunity to maybe get your voice heard and see Corey Bowman and shake hands and again Corey Bowman dot com to help his campaign. I hope it goes well tonight, Corey. I hope it's uneventful at least in terms of violence or anger, and I hope you do come up with some good solutions. It's a great opportunity for people to get the message out.

for any type of reason. That is what we're fighting against, and we're trying to get people to focus on the main issue, which is trickled down in competence from the top down.

and they deliver on that. Great plumbers. I know that for a fact because I've watched them in action at my house tankless water heaters been pointing this out.

press conference on Friday. It lacked uh information and solutions for someone who had been out of town, who had really kind of missed the entire national discussion about what would had happened in downtown Cincinnati from their pure vole. And so I was waiting to hear him say a few things like number one. I was waiting for him to say, Look, I extend my deepest thoughts to the victims.

This should never have happened to anyone. And the amount of violence, the kicks to the head, the woman Holly, who I now have found her name has was punched in the face. I feel so horrible for her. There would notice there was no empathy on his part for those who had been attacked in downtown. And there is no excuse, there is no excuse for the violence that

we saw on those people in downtown Cincinnati. So this it was an easy step and I have no idea why it is so difficult for this mayor to show empathy for Holly, who has knocked out most people who saw that video when her eyes went still, when the blood came out of her mouth. And I'm being very specific because I think we need to be, because some people haven't seen the video that you would have thought the mayor would have then said, Hey, I could see that in my wife, I can see that in my sister,

I could see that in my aunt. I wouldn't want that to happen to anyone in my family. There was none of that, I mean his response. His response was like, Hey, I really haven't spoken to any of the victims, and I've asked Joe to kind of play that piece on the other side when we come back so people can hear specifically what he said Brian that, Hey, I haven't spoken to any of the victims. I haven't reached out

to anyone and had a conversation with him. I don't know how a mayor of a major city sees a video like that and then says I don't have time to talk to any of them.

people who did this to me. She said. She hopes, in her words, they find love and they find different way of thinking. I mean, talk about it, but I would characterize it someone it is like a very Christian attitude, you know, you know, turn the other cheek or forgive your brother man, regardless of what they did to you. I thought that was a I think that speaks volumes to her character.

about it using our first Amendment right. Everybody was the problem except the leaders at City Hall. His his very light comment about President pro Tim Parks, meaning her comment of saying, all of those who were viciously attacked, including Holly, now, you didn't say it this way, but she didn't say it this way, begged for it. What a grotesque comment

from the President pro Tem. If I were a member of council, if I were the mayor and I was standing on that podium, I would have said it is time for our President pro tem to resign, meaning I would have made it clear that I distanced myself from someone who is clearly advocating violence, because she's saying they begged for that. No one begged for getting being kicked in the head, stumped. And this notion that they were acting like they were wrestlers, those professional wrestlers, and they

were coming off the top of the ring. People Matt that have seen the whole video, and they were landing on their body back up again and to cheers. People were cheering. As a person went back up in the air like they were in the WWE and landing back on the victims that were in the middle of the street. People probably haven't seen the total video, and that was happening. By the cheers of the crowds, it was like they

were in some coliseum. And so I want to say that I was looking for this leadership, rich leadership from the mayor having come back, and I think he missed an entire opportunity.

gun violence being children. We have violent crime, like every other major city across the nation, that requires our attention and our bandwidth, and so I don't traditionally meet or speak to every victim of violent crime in our city. And that's consistent with my approach today, Christopher.

the men who are being kicked in the head. And this WWE stuff that had was happening in the middle of the street, meaning somebody just standing up and then landing back down on somebody's body and then standing back up and landing back down on somebody's body. That's what was happening in the middle of the street. This was

not a fight. And so the mayor is trying to depict this because he is essentially saying those he's he's falling into what uh President pro Tim was saying, Uh Brian Thomas that that not that not that he took the step saying they deserved it, but saying that he can see wrong on both sides, and what happened, no one deserved the level of violence that you and I

and others and the national world saw. And that's his lack of leadership, because what he should have said is what happened was wrong, and there was no there's no excuse, there's no way to say what I saw on that video was okay. And because he didn't do that, he's creating this vacuum in our city for people to look at those videos and post on social media that something that they saw was okay and it isn't. That is

why I'm absolutely standing up against violence. That's why having this public conversation is very important because here I am, and here you have the vec Ramaswami standing up against violence and saying, let's have some community discussion because the mayor isn't doing it to the public. You would think that the mayor would be holding some type of town

hall meeting bringing everybody together to have the discussion. He doesn't want to have this discussion because he really doesn't want to be the mayor in my opinion, and he certainly doesn't want to reach out to any of the victims and express empathy to them for what has happened to them in our city.

Fitny Hall should be very cautious about these public aggressive comments, particularly during a campaign that she is out following the candidate, Corey Bowman to his political events and making comments while she's being paid by city Hall. It's a it's a it's a it's a very bad look. Wow. And so

I'm gonna allow. I'm going to allow. I'm going to allow the mayor and the city manager to police their contractor or their employee who is posting these things in the middle of an election where she's being paid six figures. So I think that's the most important part of this that the public should understand. So if we see her and she's across the street, know that her compensation is coming from all of us.

income is around six figures. I think it's inappropriate for her to be making these political comments, engaging in this kind of political activity in the middle of a mayorial race. But unfortunately, we have a mayor a city manager who seemed to allow this person to do whatever they want to do and not kind of give her the engagement. What are the rules of engagement now that you are working for the city. Four years ago, she wasn't working for the right, But the last four years she's been

working for the City of Cincinnati. They've been paying her. The mayor has her very close to her, the city manager has her very close. So this is new because she's never been been in the inside, meaning getting taxpayer dollars, and now she still wants to be this activist. You've got to choose a side. I think you're either an activist on the sidewalk or you're accepting taxpayer dollars and you're working on our team to make the city better.

that was alleged by the police department. They've identified four of them, or have arrested four of the six that were identified. But he's upset that the person who slapped the black man, the man who got the beat down in the middle of the street, that he has not been arrested. Now that guy is apparently lawyered up and his lawyer didn't want him to talk with him with the police. But it doesn't mean charges won't be filed.

If you slap someone, that's assault and battery, you know, So there is a potential charge there, but obviously greatly overshadowed by the heapload of violence that was meeted out upon him as a consequence of whatever altercation led to this.

You shouldn't be out here. This is karma. They drug him in the middle of the street like he wasn't even a human being, and so they dehumanize these people at a level. I'm going to allow the federal government to dig into whether they think HA crimes should be

are appropriate for what I saw on the video. My personal opinion is that this was a HA cron and that if this had happened in reverse, if I was watching a video with a group of white people in the middle of the street that were doing the WWE video, meaning they're standing up and falling back down. And see I keep saying that because people haven't even shown that part of the video, meaning just smashing these people in the middle of the street, knocking them out, kicking them

in their heads, punching holly in the faith. If this was reverse and this was a middle aged couple, black woman who was knocked out three or four or five black men in the middle of the street being stomped and beat up and kicked in the head by white people, I suggest that city hall would have a different response. I suggest that mayor pure Ball would have a different response. I suggest that our police chief would have a different response.

I suggest that our city manager would have a different response. This is an issue where they do not have the racial competency to run our city, and they're just showing it that they're not even handed. They're not willing to call a ball a ball and a striker strike, and

that is what is dividing us and white Americans. Whether they live in Paddap Hills, whether they live in Clifton, Stephen Gooden where he lives, whether someone lives in Northside, whether they live in bond Rolls around Westwood, of Price seal where this is or whether they live on River Road.

Everybody is seeing the double standard. We're not crazy, and so it's very important in my opinion for African American leadership right now to stand up and call a ball the ball to strike, to strike, a strike to strike. I do not share the opinion of my former neighbor and friend, Reverend Damon Lynch. He can have whatever opinion he wants is he has a First Amendment right to have it. I'm sharing with you that I see the double standard. I believe that this was a hate crime

from my perspective, and it should be treated as such. Well.

police cam of footage and other video. I guess they have cameras posted on the polls downtown Cincinnati that may be available. I don't know, but you did say that information and those videos will be released this week.

down with their cameras. All I'm saying to you is that you can see the effort of not showing the video that I'm talking about this WWE stuff that was happening in the middle of the street by African American men who are standing up and as as if they were coming from the top of a ring and coming down on the bodies of these white men in the

middle of the street. That happened several times. That video has not been sent out, It is not being played nationally, and I believe that it will and I believe that the press conference that happened on Friday will not age. Will that just basically says, hey, listen. They didn't do a good job. They were there trying to blame the Brian Thomas. They were trying to blame Channel five, Channel twelve, whoever,

they were trying to blame social media. They are the leaders of the city of Cincinnati, and there was no reflection on their part saying we own this part of it. We only had three officers downtown. We were understaffed. We should have done better coordination with the state of Ohio with Governor Mike Delyne. That would have been part of the solution, right. We should have brought more officers in, the sheriffs in and because we knew that there were

three major events that were happening downtown. I mean, the point is that mayor didn't own anything. You know, I have a master's degree in counseling, and one of the first things you have to do is own He didn't own anything. He was blaming everybody. He was deflecting. It was the basic kinds of things which are talking about happening across the street, which is just fine for anybody

to do. That's just deflection. It's just background noise. Because there are people out here who want him to win. They want members of Council to win, and they really don't want you and I, my white brother black brothers, to come together, have a civil conversation, talk about solutions, talk about what happened, and walk out of here hand

in hand. They're wanting to keep the divisiveness actually going because they're more interested in the November election than they are the people of the city of Cincinnati.

so you're not a member. You know anything, you know anything about it. But the point you're making, you're making a very rational point. You remember, the klu klux Klan was an arm of the Democratic Party. Historically. These are the Dixiecrats, right, This is not the Republican Party. So remember the Dixiecrats. My grandfather who was from Montgomery, Alabama, my mother of what's from Montgomery, my father from Birmingham, Alabama. The people that they worry about, my grandmother who lived

through one hundred and six Mosilla flowers. They were concerned about the Dixiecrats, the Klueklus current members, not the Republicans. So remember when you look at that flyer, you should think about the Democratic Party because that's historically who they were and what they did. And the last thing I'll share with you, we stand on hollow ground here in Price Hill. Remember the Ohio River, never forget, was the sacred place where so many African Americans crossed for freedom.

And there were abolitionists all up Route fifty who took in our people and kept them safe from the slave catchers. Right put their lives in everything on the line. There is no better place than right here at Jim and jack to have some type of public discussion about what is happening in our city for those white abolitionists who

put everything on on the line. I am honored to serve as a voice for those white Americans who were dehumanized and continue to be dehumanized by city Hall and specifically the President pro Tim who said those people begged for the violence against the Jeez.

tenth year for the fundraiser. They've established some scholarships in his name, and they had me out every year to speak a few words and kind of facilitate it, and it was just a glorious, glorious event. It always is one of those things that reminds you that there's so much good going on in the world in spite of the fact that we deal with a bunch of crap each and every day in the news.

They're just so fun and welcoming, and again is one of those I really needed this event kind of moment is the way I feel every year about it. It's because here I am surrounded by bad news and you know, division and intolerance and beat downs, and you show up and something like that. You know, what, the world is still sane, The world is still a great place.

We're the Fed does not move quickly. We don't want to spook anything. You don't want to spook the herd.

So they're not moving fast enough anyway, although I don't believe any FED chair will be able to move fast enough to keep President Trump happy. But in this case, there's also behind this. There's just a difference in philosophy. Trump feels an interest rates should have been on the you know, months, if not years ago, and FED chair Palell is feeling a little differently about that in terms of his face is on this. So he has to be the one making the right decisions.

out in favor of what ter Powell. Terir Powell wants to act on more evidence in general, so he's a little bit slower than some have been in the past. But those numbers are coming out. It's looking more and more like we're going to see a ray cut here in September. So we may we looks like we may very well get what the president is is it has been asking for, and what some of the political population believe as well. It's just not happening fast enough to keep everybody happy.

factory or something like that and create jobs. I'm sort of making this up as hypothetical example, but somebody out there is sitting in a conference room right now trying to decide do we execute this loan with this bank right now or do we wait six weeks this end of September and see what the Federal Reserve is going to do because we could get a better interest rate

out of the deal. So you know, there are this is something there has to be some predictability to it, where if I'm trying to make a decision that's going to employ hundreds of thousands of people, you know, build build some factories as the President is wanting here, Well, then I need to know what my bank financing terms are going to be, and a lot of that comes

right out of the Fed. So I need to be able to understand what they're going to do and the timing of when they're going to do it, not this afternoon is different from tomorrow morning.

interest they pay on the T bills. Yes, absolutely so.

primary role. There's a million statistics and reports and all kinds of things that they look at, but it basically has to do with employment and CPI. Those are the two things. If we keep those under control, keep those where we want them. We want, you know, employment around ninety five percent is and we want inflation around two to two and a quarter something like that. We're a little bit higher than that now, but we are well off our nine percent crazy highs from a few summers ago,

so we're definitely training in the right direction. We just haven't actually ticked the box that would give a green light to Jerome pell in his own thinking.

going on between the President and Jerome Powell. She didn't even go to the meeting most recently, so you know, all of this is speculation. It's not fair to guess at what's in somebody's head. But you know you can. I think you can kind of infer from the lack of information that she shared about her decision that whatever it was probably would have caused more conflict, and she was trying to avoid that too.

Trump's different perspective. At the same time, remember he put drum Powell in this position too, so we'll see if it lasts throughout this person's term.

job loss is a consequence of it. First, though, Affordable Imaging Services, we are talking about money, and this is all about money because you're gonna get the same dang thing you're gonna get from the hospital imaging department at Affordable Imaging Services, that is and echo cardigrana, MRI, a CT scan, an ultrasound, or an X ray. You're gonna

get it for a sizeable discount, I mean massive. Ask my listener friend Fred out there who said he saved six thousand dollars, and I always like mention Jeff too. He saved thirty one hundred dollars. Jeff got a CT scan. I've gotten three of them at Affordable Imaging Services. You know what, same equipment to hospitals use medical professionals operating them. They've been at this for decades. A CT scan is not five thousand dollars, which is probably what it's gonna

cost you at the hospital. It's four fifty four hundred fifty bucks without a contrast six hundred with a contrast. Yep, been down that road. Doctors had no problem with many of the images. The images all all of them come with the price included a board certified radiologist report. It's low overhead. Folks, don't expect all these bells and whistles. Just expect you to get a good CT scan or an ultrasound, et cetera and save money. That's what it's about.

Five one three seven, five three eight thousand, five one three seven, five three eight thousand. Check it all out online Affordable Meddeimaging dot com.

Somebody sent me a link to the gives Send Go campaign, which is where you can contribute to help her deal with her medical issues and everything. Three hundred and forty thousand, nine hundred dollars has been raised so far in the last several days. That is absolutely amazing.

I'm not in love with this. I'm okay with some of the things we've done to you know, to change our standing and you know, for example, force other countries to pay their fair share for NATO support and even up on tariffs, all that stuff. I've been feeling like his overdue moves. But stuff like this, to me, just completely undermines his legacy. He's reacting to the July report showed only seventy three thousand new jobs that was far

below expectations. But the bigger point, remember the Bureau Labor Statistics. What they do is they gather surveys. They literally ask companies, how many people did you hire this month? And companies will respond and of course, just like any other survey you get via email, sometimes you respond right away, usually you don't, But anyway, it takes a long time. Over the ensuing three months of sending that out, they will continue to receive responses to this survey. Yeh, that's where

those revisions come from. It's not the Bureau of Labor Statistics screwing things up. It's companies just not responding in a timely manner to government surveys, which you know, you can't force him to do that anyway. But the news here as the revision was downward by over a quarter million jobs. That is a really really big miss. And rather than deal with the headlines of possible slowing economy, President Trump just decided that that it was wrong.

these huge interest rates decisions. So yes, the the the actual numbers that were coming out, even these revisions are speaking towards Yeah, it's probably time to lower interest rates because the economy is definitely slowing and whoops, it may be slowing a little faster. Were stomping on the brakes a little little faster that we wanted to That is a recipe for Yep, it's time to lower interest rates. And that's why I feel pretty confident that September is

going to involve a rate cut. But it also speaks to I think it's the it's the trajectory. It's how quickly those revisions came down that angered the president because it makes it feel like the economy is going over a cliff as opposed to just slowing down.

and that it will come through there. If we're really trying to tout that the economy is wonderful, but we're hemorrhaging jobs left and right, you will see it in the stock market.

revisions usually were positive. Under Biden from twenty one to twenty four, the more recent ones about one hundred thousand jobs on average, and usually they were in a more downward direction, and Obama was kind of somewhere in the middle. But anyway, the point is not the numbers. The point is that these revisions have happened and do happen and always will happen. The ahead of the BLS gets two days to do whatever he or she is going to

do with the data. They don't get to audit it, and all that has to come out as basically as soon as it as soon as it appears, so there's not much chance that she would have had to manipulate it. I'm gonna go ahead and throw out there that there's a zero chance that Trump gave any time to look for the data, to look for any evidence that this is an accurate assertion of his that the data is wrong.

money than you take in. You have an appreciation of not over spending, and then by learning that knowledge, you can then criticize government and its runaway spending and it's deficit spending and appreciate that I can't run my home that way? How is it that politicians can run our government that way? Turning everybody into a fiscal conservative? Brian James, this is Is there any opposition to this concept of requiring the some just a semester of a basic home economics kind of thing for finance.

me per memories. I remember square dancing and wondering why I was square dancing, you know, back of the day. But yeah, so remember we don't have a Department of Education anymore, so there's no there isn't a federal mandate, nor will there be a federal mandate. But there are a lot of states out there who are doing this, So this is not a you know, the article we stumbled across with Colorado is you know, is putting something

in place. They are the twenty eighth states, so there's more than half the country, half the states in the country out there that do have some kind of requirements for financial literacy around budgeting, saving, how do you deal with credit and debt, leasing versus buying all those kinds of things. And I do know some of the schools that I've had direct experience with through my own family

actually do have some pretty strong programs in place. So despite the headlines, I think there's more financial education out there that is happening. It's just kind of hitting the headlines a little more as more and more states get on board, but there never will be a federal mandate on this because you just dismantled the entire Department of Education, so we will not have a voice from the federal level.

can't be part of their social studies graduation requirements. It has to be part of the finance and that represents about sixty hours of instruction under law. So we do have some rules and standards. And there have seen some of the things that are coming out of the schools. And I'm actually from my perch here as a financial advisor, I like what they're talking about. I anticipated it'll change conversations I have with young people in the next ten years.

thing was. But they didn't want to touch it at all. They simply wanted to get us in the room so that the computer expert would would basically take over for that half hour forty minutes. So yeah, I think I think we are in a situation with this stuff where it can be tough to pull, you know, a teacher out of what their background is. Maybe they know history, maybe they know mathematics, but they don't know the personal finance side themselves. Remember, I have a job for a reason.

Not a lot of people know how to put the puzzle pieces together, so throwing them in and asking them to teach this curriculum can be a challenge.

car giveaway. They have a car that's been fully repaired, ready to hit the ground running for someone in need out in the community. We're gonna learn from Dane about this in the next segment, how you can stick around.

they're like, that's it. I'm not I'm not putting any more money into it. And other people will put you know, ten thousand dollars into a ten year old car.
