And then finally one in three have been a victim of a financial scan. Not shocking considering what we learn from tech Friday's Day Hatter every single Friday. Again, that's a podcast worth listening to if you can't listen live fast forward to eight thirty.

Doctor Catherine read a book Fat, Stressed and Sick MSG Processed Food in America's health Crisis. That's good. I'm glad we have more of these folks on regarding fitness and health because I think it's so important that we get our heads around and our our our information based around what's healthy and what's good for you and what is not. Going back to RFK Junior's pledge to do just that, at least get the information out there. Don't issue a band, don't do this. You know it's yeah. If we have,

if we're educated, we can make informed decisions. And if you choose to ignore the advice and fine, you may suffer as a consequence of it. But you know, I'm not the kind of guy that wants to take something away from you just because it's bad. Just recognize that there are bad things out there, and your consumption of bad things can lead to bad things happening to you. You know, alcohol is not good for you. But we all, we all saw what happened when we had a constitutional

moment banning it. Yeah, people continued to drink and organized crime flourished. Anyhow, I saw this poll and I thought was rather interesting. And we're seeing more and more potential presidential candidates emerge. I know it seems rather early to start talking about a presidential race, but the Democrats need to find someone who emerged from the pile of ashes

that was last November's election. And apparently Democrat favorability rating among Americans is at a record low, according to CNN, fueled in part by a dimming view from its own frustrated supporters, said Ariel Edwards Levy of CNN, reporting on its own polling, Democrats and Democratic aligned independents say fifty seven to forty two percent that Democrats should mainly work to stop the Republican agenda rather than work with the

GOP to get some democratic ideas in the legislation. Now, the likelihood of that happening, and I recognize its slim. We have a divided country and no one seems to want to work with anybody. I don't know how the Democrats could get whatever ideas they want into legislation, considering the insanity of most of the Democratic ideas. But then again, when you stop and think about it, Democrats should mainly work to stop the Republican agenda. That's the strategy. Well,

what is the Republican agenda? Think about that? I think primarily working to get the twenty seventeen tax cuts in trying into law. They've got an uphill battle for that, but they may very well be to get it done. There's about two hundred and fifty days left to do that, according to the countdown ferreting out fraud, waste, and abuse in government. How can anybody be against that? It seems to be primarily what the Republicans are all about these days.

Of course, with the Department of Government Efficiency DOGE, and all these revelations about the crazy stuff that we've been paying for, and the fact that even Barack Obama had urged it's great. This is going viral. A twenty eleven video President Obama calling on the federal government to cut wastele government spending in programs, even the ones that a

lot of people care about. His words, what everyone knows that getting rid of the deficit will require some tough decisions, and that includes cutting back on billions of dollars in programs that a lot of people care about, said Barack Obama in this fourteen year old, almost fourteen year old clip. Sounds familiar, doesn't it, see part of the Democrats' strategy as well, at one point, and what a bipartisan thing, getting rid of crap. We're in a death spiral. You know,

it gets old saying it over and over again. But that's the practical reality of where we are because of government overspending, and some of it's so easy to get rid of, as this Department of Government efficiency is showing us every day. It's part of the Republican strategy. But this has been an old adage for the Democrats as well. Even Barack Obama embraced the idea. He put Joe Biden

in charge of it back then. By the way, Obama mentioned the importance of more painful cut stressing though the US government should at least get rid of its quote pointless waste and stupid spending that doesn't benefit anybody, adding that in his words, it's a waste we should be getting rid of even if we didn't have a deficit. No amount of waste is acceptable, he said, especially when it's your money. Just as families are living within their means,

the government should too. Wow, lots of remarkable Stevemen a democratic proposition, a democratic idea. Obama even provide examples of stupid spending. Did you know the federal government pays for a website devoted to a folk music ensemble made up for forests made up of forest rangers called Finland Foresters. I'll put their music on my iPod, but I'm not paying for their websites. Amen, Barack Obama, how about all

the things that doges identified. I think back then, if you put it in front of him, he probably would have agreed completely and across the board. He also pointed out, we're paying for thousands of buildings across the country that no one uses. Barack Obama twenty eleven. Oh look. Former GSA Government Service Administration had Emily Murphy, speaking of Fox News, said the GSA will be right sizing its portfolio by

selling or leasing unused government buildings. I think that there's an incredible opportunity right now for GSA to say the government substantial amounts of money by right sizing its portfolio. Vacant or underutilized federal spaces are all over the place right now, the GSA is loose using money. The federal building that they own have over that buildings that they own have over three hundred and seventy billion dollars in deferred maintenance. That's a liability that's just growing and growing

because the buildings haven't been maintained. So getting rid of own space that hasn't been maintained, that isn't occupied, first of all, takes that off the government books and gets rid of that liability. So Barack Obama apparently didn't do anything about it back in twenty eleven when he promised to do exactly that. It's still there. Is it okay to do it now? Or a Democrat's going to resist because well, it's under a Republican administration. Stop the Republican agenda.

That's what it's all about. That's the platform. If the Republicans propose it, then we will stand against it, even though it is an apolitical, bipartisan practical approach getting rid of, for example, excess government buildings. Contrasting the current demands by the Democrats in other words, fight the Republican agenda fifty seven to forty two rewind to is September twenty seventeen

the CNN. Same CNN poll found seventy four percent majority of Democrats and Democratic leaders so their parties should work with Republicans in an effort to advance their priorities. Only twenty three percent advocated a combative approach. Time's changed, don't they? I suggest this is part of the Trump arrangement syndrome. Trump living rent free inside all these Democrats had. He's been characterized as this evil human being, so whatever he

says and proposes is immediately perceived as bad. Is that a party platform, especially when you note that these really practical solutions to some of the problems we face by way of government spending have no political stripe. Are there really Democrats out there that don't want to unload unused, empty office buildings that we're paying for? Is that a

dumb idea? And if so, please explain to me why should we continue funding shrimp on treadmill studies that don't see the benefit anybody shipping billions and billions of dollars overseas for stupid programs that more than likely aren't even being done puppet shows in Iraq or whatever. You know. I mean, I've lost there's so much craziness. I've lost track of the proposals or the programs that had been funded, those USA programs, for example, among Americans overall, not just Democrats,

because I guess the CNN broke them down. Among the American public overall, the Democratic Party's favorability ratings stands at ready twenty nine percent, described as a record low in CNN's pulling back to nineteen ninety two, and a drop of twenty points since January twenty one. Now, for its part, Republican Party ratings stands at thirty six percent, So not a tremendous this, you know, overwhelming improvement over the Democrats, but it's still better, I think, just a general reflection

that well, we all hate politicians. Just sixty three percent of Democrats and Democrat leaning independence report a favorable view of their own party, a dip from seventy two percent in January and eighty one percent to start at Joe Biden's administration, favorability ratings from Democrat Party failing, falling rather

by eighteen points. Among liberals and moderates, alike. Since twenty twenty one, seventy nine percent of Republicans and Republican leaders currently take a positive view of their party, turning the independence just independence, nineteen percent rate Democrats favorably, twenty percent rate Republicans favorably, So the Independence pretty much uniformally dissatisfy with both of the both of the parties. What's the solution,

what is the directive? What is the direction? The Democrats are going to go full on liberal, full on liberal or are they going to be a little bit more reform minded and try to become the party of the moderates to recapture those working class, middle class folks that the Republican Party appealed to in the most recent election.

It's an interesting challenge the Democrats face right now. Five eighteen fifty five Karacy de Talk stations stick around, plenty more to talk about coming up, and of course the stack is stupid at five point forty after the bottom of the hour news, I'll be right back five two fifty five Casey Detalk station. Thank you. Keith made my morning.

Just got an email from him this morning. Right about just a few minutes, I guess it's almost six pm here getting back to our rooms, and I'm going to turn on the show along with a photograph from his hotel room showing Mount Fuji. He's in Japan and he's listening to the fifty five KRSDY Morning Show. Joe Strecker, we've gone global. That's cool. Good morning, Keith. Safe travels to you, my friend, and thank you for making my morning. Chip over to the phone. See what Tom's got this morning? Tom,

welcome to the Morning show. Oh, good morning, Oh my god, where in the hell have you been?

backing off. They're like fighting at the glass. And if you went out the door right there where the geese are, there's just geese crap all over the sidewalk. At some point we got to be able to get rid of these stupid things. They're nothing but a nuisance. They don't only do is make a mess getting away, and you're not allowed to mess with them. I don't I don't think that's right.

of the word perfect. You talk to somebody like customer service, and you know you're telling them, you know, they're asking you for information, and you're telling him your name and you're stelling it for him and your address and everything is like perfect. Perfect. Now it's not perfect. If it was perfect, I wouldn't be having to talk to you to get a problem solved. There's nothing perfect about this. This flippant use of the word perfect is just irritating

the crap out of me. If it was perfect, believe me, we wouldn't be having this conversation right now with customer service dealing with this problem. So stop using the word perfect. Oh and by the way, people forget it.

I hope you're having a happy Monday.

But I thought, you know, Bobby Kennedy, Eric Adams, all these different Democrats who opened their mouth and complained basically are being thrown under.

Cortez against jd Vance. Anyhow, five point thirty five fifty five KRC the Talk station. If she had any traction that would really frighten me, I mean really frighten me. We got more to talk about. Stack is Stupid coming up next, so we can stick around for that. I'll be right back.

fools and their money being soon parted. Anyway, we now have the auction side Golden decided to put a Michael Jordan esque snack up for auction, described as the Jumpin' Cheeto. Idiots doing idiot things because they're idiots. As of the time of the reporting, current bid show a highest bid at two hundred and seventy five dollars according to the web The auction side Golden e Cheeto is in a

three inch case to protect it from the air. In the description, the reverse of the case is designed like a collectible card, highlighting Jordan's accomplishments from his illustrious career. The cheeto itself is positioned against the backdrop of the iconic photograph that inspired the world renowned logo. Apparently, you have some number of days left before the auction closes. If you are interested in bidding beyond the current auction price, I would say maybe it's time to get some counseling.

Last year, along the same lines, this is the quote from the article, Well, this is one of the more unique pieces of jordan memorability to go for auction. Anything associated with him can fetch lucrative prices. Last year and Autograph two thousand and three four logo man card sold for two point nine two eight million dollars. I don't know what planet I'm on. That is a correct statement. Go to Florida and why not as a tradition, it's

attack of stupid. Florida woman charged with domestic battery for allegedly throwing a watermelon at her boyfriend, who happily dodged the airborne fruit. During what it is described as a verbal confrontation. Shelley Hardwick, fifty one, allegedly picked up a whole watermelon and threw it in the direction of the victim of Cord. To the police report, Amen Joe, fifty six year old man quickly moved out of the way of the incoming watermelon. I love the smoking guns, reporting,

the weight of which is not disclosed. In the arrest Affida, Hardwick told police she threw the watermelon only out of frustration, denied throwing it at her boyfriend's direction. Bought arrival at the Paris residence, described as a motel in Dundon, Gobs noted there is a watermelon seeds on the victim's face and clothing. H Hardwick arrested for domestic battery misdemeanor. After spending a night in Joe. She was released from custody

on her own recognizance. Judge directed Hardwick, who's pleaded not guilty, to have no connection with the victim. Additionally, the judge ordered Hardwick to be outfitted with an ankle bracelet that monitors are you ready? That monitors alcohol consumption? What editorial decision by Joe Strecker to place this into the stack of stupid as opposed to one of the local stories having to go at Governor of Wine are you today? Joe governed to Wine asking Donald Trump to move NASA's

headquarters to Cleveland. He sent trumple letter Dwine Center trumpet letters shared Saturday on the Governor's Facebook page and other social media accounts. NASA's lease on the current building in Rushington, d C expires in twenty twenty eight. Florida and Texas olscove also vying for the Space Agency's headquarters, primarily because I think they're approximately located next to oceans or gulfs,

as the case may be. Quote as Governor of OHIOM writing to strongly recommend the National Aeronautics and Space Administration headquarters be located to the NASA Glen Research Center. This is an optimal time to move the headquarters out of Washington, DC area, take advantage of a much more economical location and gain significant efficiencies through co location with a vibrant

NASA Research center. Ohio is the birthplace of aviation, he wrote, the heart of America's aerospace industry and a critical hub for advanced technology research and manufacturing, including the Air Force Research Laboratory at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton and Ohio's newly designated Hub of Aerospace and Defense Innovation in Youngstown. Said the move with align with you MINAE

Stration's effort to decentralize federal agencies. Cleveland, home to NASIGUN Research Center, offers a significant lower cost living and operates expense and operating expenses than Washington. It would result in substantial savings for tax players, he claimed, while maintaining access to world class aerospace research and development resources. Stacker stupid for that one, Joe editorial comments from Driss Trecker. Joe Biden even thought that it was a stupid idea. Stranger

things have happened. Keep your popcorn out. What's the betting line for that? Going through Joe? They got that on the betting websites. Five to forty five fifty five KRCIT detalk station imaging can be affordable if you go to affordable imaging services of your echo cardiograms, MRI, CT scans, ultrasounds, lung screenings, and cardiac scorings a mere fraction, I mean a tiny fraction what the hospital imaging departments are charging. So echo cardiogram first off, they you can get you

right in. You may have to wait weeks or even a month or so to get into the hospital imaging department. So I've been told it will cost you thirty five hundred dollars maybe more. You have to pay separately for the board certified radiologist support. In most cases it's just dang expensive tons overhead. But it is a great profit center because most people don't realize there is a choice in medical care. You don't have to go where your hot doctor says to go. The hospital system that presumably

owns their practice keeping the money in house. So don't pay thirty five hundred dollars. Affordable imaging service is an echo cardigram five hundred dollars without enhancement eight hundred width and they'll get you right in. MRIs. Same kind of deal. Thousands and thousands of dollars and over at Affordable Imaging Services and MRI four hundred and ninety five. Same thing goes across the board for all the images.

stan Gerditz. Proposed piece of legislation aims to target students who exhibit quote any type of behavior or accessory displayed by a student in a school or district other than behaviors or accessories typically displayed by a member of the

Homo sapien species. Prohibition extends the surgical or superficial means of features that are non human, such as tails, leashes, collars, other accessories designed for pets, fur other than naturally occurring human hair, or a wig made to look like human hair, artificial animal like ears, barking, noowing, hissing, and or animal noises not indicative of human species, licking oneself for the sake of grooming, using a litterbox, for passing the stool,

passing of stool, urine, or other human byproducts. Exceptions carved out school mascots in certain theme days, which apparently Texas public schools can have five of those. Bill also outlines that quote allowing or encouraging the child to develop a dependence on or belief that non human behaviors are socially acceptable us quote in an educational setting constitutes child abuse, and if educators are found to support these tendencies and

violation of the Act. The attorney gentlemen find the district twenty five thousand dollars are up to Governor. Governor Abbot apparently, in a recent interview, raised concerns that kids go to school dressed up as cats with litter boxes in their classrooms, although local news there says there have been no confirmed instances of educator schools or school districts permitting or providing litter boxes to students to use in the state of

Texas or anywhere else in the country. I seem to have read that they allowed that for reasons unknown to me. Are you blanking kidding me? Nope, not kidding it. I can't believe that it's allowed or permitted anywhere, quite honest with you. We've go to Louisville, Kentucky High School. Special education teacher there has been arrested following accusations of abuse

in the classroom. Jamison Woods been charged with criminal abused, two counts of harassment with physical contact, and official misconduct. Criminal complaint says the first incident happened in January this year Odham County High School. Woods with a small group of special needs of students when she allegedly started demonstrating crisis prevention intervention holds on a fifteen year old with autism for in the words of the complaint, no justified reason.

Court documents say the student was not bothered by the whole but asked Woods for a hug afterward. Woods then allegedly denied him, saying, quote you have nasty germs close quote. Woods then went towards the cabinet went while the student followed and asked for another hug. She then allegedly grabbed a can of aerosol spray cleaner and sprayed his face. Joe, I think we've got an award to give out, Woods reported to me, within a foot of the student, and

she moved the can around as it sprayed. Students' classes blocked the spray from getting in his eyes. Next reported incident January thirtyth police said Wood threw a yoga ball at a fifteen year old mentally disabled student and a fourteen year old student with multiple disabilities, both allegedly hitting the head multiple times. The classroom eight saw the incident.

Oldham County School said in the statement, we were made aware of the allegations of owning a teacher at OHS back in January, the teachers immediately removed from the school and placed on leave on investigation led by OCPD took place. Teacher has not been back on campus since the allegations were brought forward. We continue to cooperate with the ongoing investigation and are committed to the safety and well being of our students.

he said to me, listening to the morning show. He chimed in, he said, I haven't seen anyone dressed as a cat here, referring back to my furries article, the legislation in Texas that would ban people from being furries in schools. I just thought it was funny because I would have figured Japan is like the one place you'd be certain to run into someone dressed like a cat. Maybe I have a misconception about our friends in Japan. Anyway, before I get into other areas of the news, let's

see what Bobby's got this morning. Bobby, Happy Monday to you, Welcome to the Morning Show.

of that one. So so we can say that that's bipartisan cutting fraud, waste, and abuse, stupid spending that doesn't benefit Americans out of the government. And how about this one, What else the Republicans doing or what is this administration doing that the Biden administration did not deporting illegal criminal aliens. Accord a new Tip Insides poll released by a nineteen percent margins Americans back broad mass deportations of all illegal

aliens by fifty six percent to thirty seven percent. According to Steve Cortez, who what was the one response were behind this Tip Insides poll, He said, in a country that's politically polarized or most issues break down to forty seven forty seven along party lines, kind of margin on a controversial topic like immigration points to an emergent consensus in the country. M how about that support for deportation or criminal illegals? Criminal illegals number the first point fifty

six to thirty seven was all illegal aliens. When it comes to criminal illegal aliens, widespread consensus that they should be kicked out if the illegal alien is a criminal record in the United States or their home country. Deportation is a plus sixty five percent. Among registered voters, seventy nine percent are in favor of it, only fourteen percent are against. Smaller upset a senior citizen nearly unanimous. Senior citizens say ninety four percent approve of deporting criminal aliens

compared to four percent who are against it. Subset of former Vice President Kamala Harris. Voters give deportation the criminal illegal aliens their approval as well. Seventy one percent huh and you know, I have to go back to the first poll. Democrats say stop the Republican agenda fifty seven to forty two. That is exactly what they want. Rather than working with the GOP to get something accomplished along what they want, fight the Trump agenda, which would include

deporting criminal illegal aliens. Not a winner among Hispanics, sixty nine percent say deport criminal illegal aliens. And he turned to independent voters eighty percent say deport criminal illegal aliens. Hm, the pollsters said, so, why have Americans moved so aggressively toward Trump and in favor of strict law enforcement regarding immigration? He cited three reasons. First, Biden's border hoax, claiming ad nauseum that he actually wanted law in order, but needed

new congressional action to secure our country. Now that Trump has secured the border only weeks into office, the fullness of that crass prevarication is laid bare before the country. That is a noteworthy point. Over and over again, they kept saying Trump stopped the legislation they would have prevented this. We need new legislation on immigration now. Actually you don't.

Second the economy, he cited an influx of millions of unvetted, unwelcome migrants, put massive additional strain on that predicament of affordable apartments and homes, and finally, public safety. Horrible cases of totally preventable violence clearly moved Americans who understandably worry about crimes that would never happen if illegal alien perpetrators

were not allowed in this country. Margin of era two point four percent, so well within any marchin affair on that one, they got to pivot over to California along the same lines. Look I wrote Castle Doctrine and Second Amendment on the top of the article headlines Migrant gangs

put on notice after a string of home burglaries. What is described as a bipartisan group of lawmakers in California asking the heart Department of Homeland Security to remove Chili's status on the Visa Program waiver or waiver program because of the burglary risk the Chileans are posing. Representative Young Kim, Derek Tran, Dave Min, Mike Levin of California Sinelearty DHS asking that ChIL be taken off the list. That list allows citizens from certain countries to visit the United States

for about three months without a visa quote. We are concerned about the VWP. This waiver program continues to be exploited by South American theft group, a majority of whom originate from Chile. Known as burglary tourism, certain eligible individuals travel to the United States through the VWP for the purpose of committing residential and commercial robberies before returning to their country of Oregon origin. That's in the letter obtained

by Fox News. The letter goes on, in addition having an impact on familial communities, these South American theft groups continue to victimize Orange County companies and entrepreneurs, placing a burden on our local police departments, already beset by a lack of resources and staffing deficit that would probably be

a result of the defund the police movement. In twenty twenty four, they wrote there were fifty nine residential burglaries suscepted expectator of being committed by these satgs these groups in the Orange County Sheriff Department Southeast Patrol area. Given the threat to public safety, we believe immediate action must

be taken. That's reported that this burglary tourism practice has become relatively common in communities throughout the country, including affluent areas in Orange County, California, Scottsdale, Arizona, oh And Travis Kelcey from the Kansas City Chief had it coming and had it evented his place, as well as Joe Burrow here in Cincinnati theft victims when they were out of

town at games. Previous letters sent by these representatives asking the Biden administration to take a similar action back in June of twenty three, warning that these groups will sometimes sell stolen goods online to launder money through Chinese crime syndicates.

World is. They're coming into Orange County, California, where Disneyland is, and they're not here to visit the happiest place on earth. They're here to burglarize. Well, if California wasn't so strict with gun control, maybe had a castle doctrine. They might learn their lesson and not take chances and break into people's homes.

Iragua gang members. So on Saturday issued a presidential proclamation invoking this act to speed up the deportations of the Venezuelan nationals who are fourteen years or older, who are members of the gang trade d Arragua and who are not citizens or lawful permanent residents of the United States

illegal immigrant gang members specifically, so before you issue the proclamation. Apparently, lawyers for five of the detainees being processed for deportation fouled a lawsuit to stop the President's deportation practice in front of US District George Judge James Boseburg, US District Corps for the District Columbia, who issued an order barring the deportation of those five specific plaintiffs for at least the next couple of weeks while the legal proceedings continue.

Then later on Saturday evening, the same judge returned issuing a second order granting a class action certification to all non citizens who would otherwise be subject to Trump's presidential proclamation booting them out under the Alien Enemies Act of

seventeen ninety eight. Lawyers from the ACLU and Democracy Forward Is filed the complaint challenging the legality of his invocation of this Alien Enemies Act, noting that the seventeen ninety eight law has only ever been invoked on three prior occasions. The War of eighteen twelve World War One and World War Two. I don't know that that necessarily limits its application in other times, even though we're not in a

declared war now. The plaintiffs claim THEE and Alien Enemies Act plainly in their words, plainly only applies to warlike actions that go on, saying it cannot be used here against nationals of a country Venezuela, with whom the United States is not at war, which is not invaded in the United States, and which has not launched a predatory

incursion in the United States now. In his proclamation, though, Trump says the Venezuelan government has gradually ceded more of its authority to the terrorist group Trade the Aragua and other similar transnational criminal organizations, resulting what the proclamation referred

to as a hybrid criminal state. If they're facilitating these folks coming into our country, if they are emptying their jails or cleaning out their neighborhoods to get rid of their gang problem, and sending them here, then one might construe that as potentially an active war, I can or

at least something that falls under this act. Trump's proculation states evidence irrefutably demonstrates that TDA has invaded the United States and continues to invade, attempt to invade, and threaten the invade the country, perpetrated irregular warfare within the country,

and use drug trafficking as a weapon against our citizens. Now, Trump reached out to the Venezuelan government or the l Salvadorian government, offered them six million dollars to imprison three hundred of these train de Airagua suspects and two more individuals suspected of ties the Salvadorian Transnational Gang MS thirteen. Bozburg said at the Saturday evening hearing where he issued the second order, I do not believe I can wait any longer and required to act. A brief delay in

the removal does not cause the government any harm. Meanwhile, these gang members were on a deportation plane already in international waters. Bozburg ordered the deportation planes that were already in the air to turn around, which the administration said, now they're in international waters, so it's too late. And the planes did touch ground, and the El Salvadorian government has taken them and placed them into their prison facilities.

It is, as Bobby pointed out, he called me on Saturday, let me know there was gunshots at the Ohio Gun Collectors Association, and it is reported in the side of the post a gunshot fire to the Ohio Collectors Association Saturday left two people injured, prompting a large law enforcement response and a temporary lockdown of the event. Apparently a single round discharged by one of the attendees there, which was held in Wilmington. That's where it always is. I've

been there to that thing. The shot hit one person. Another individual injured by a ricochet. Clinton County Sheriff's Department responded immediately securing the scene, locking down the entire venue for several hours while they established the crime scene. The event at six hundred and sixty vendor tables and was crowded at the time of the incident. It always is crowded.

Investigations ongoing circumstances surrounding the shooting aren't yet released. She had no further details regarding the condition of the individuals or the potential charges have been released. They're really good about checking firearms and securing them before you come in if you come in with one, because you can wander

around and sell them. Vendors are usually really good about that too, But they also sell Ammo there, so it's conceivable that someone could buy a gun or have a gun and then buy some AMMO and load it up right there, which would be really really stupid. Go to Kentucky. My friend's in the Commonwealth. There's a bill that is probably going to be signed. Governor Adbsheer's planning on signing it making it harder for retailers to sell vape products

to children. It's center bill one hundred, apparently got bypart is in support from both the House and Senate. Bill would create the division of Tobacco, Nicotine and Vapor Product Licensing, falling within the Department of Beverage Control. Will give the investigators authority to inspect any premise where alternative nicotine, tobacco and vaping products are sold without obtaining a search warrant,

kind of trouble by that. Advocates claim the bill will help create safe and healthy environments for children in Kentucky. Terry Brooks, executive director of the Kentucky Youth Advocates, said Senate Bill one hundred is targeted addressing what is not a problem, but a pandemic in the Commonwealth. The bill would also require retailers that sell any nicotine products to be licensed, and would establish penalties for retailers that sell

the products without a license. According to Brooks, retailers are going to get those surprise inspection visits, and they're not just going to be looking at who you are selling beer and cigarettes to, but they're going to be watching how you manage how you sell vape products. If the bill signed in the law by Governor of Sheer, Kentucky, would joined forty other states who have similar programs preventing

retailers from selling vaping products to kids and teenagers. I don't know that the other states allow a warrantless search. Kind of scratching my head over that one.

former Vice mayor of the City of Cincinnati. Let us see here going back to the point that President then President Barack Obama made widely circulated viral video about the President Obima back in twenty eleven talking about cutting crappy spending, wasteful government spending and programs, saying, everybody knows that getting rid of the deficit will require some tough decisions, and that includes cutting back on billions of dollars in programs that a lot of people care about, saying the US

government should at least get rid of pointless waste and stupid spending. That doesn't benefit anybody who said it's waste we should be getting rid of even if we didn't have a deficit. Quote, no amount of waste is acceptable, especially when it's our or your money. Just as families are living within their means, government should too. How about

that they also provide examples of stupid spending. Did you know that federal government pays for a website that devoted a folk music ensemble made up of forest rangers they're called fiddling foresters. I'll put their music on my iPod, but I'm not paying for their websites. Great, it was a great concept. Didn't follow through on it. He put then Vice President Joe Biden in charge of the effort to quote hunt down misspent tax dollars in every agency

and department of this government. It's like putting Kamala Harris's borders are okay, congratulations, your borders are and then not do anything about it. So well, this is about Hunter's laptop. Joe, Oh, Joe looked on Hunter's laptop and didn't find anything except evidence of criminal activity and drug abuse and porn. And going back to the CNN POLLI here I mentioned both

of these articles. In the five o'clour the CNN poll among Democrats and Democrat aligned independence, fifty seven percent say that Democrats should work to stop the Republican agenda, which occludes, of course, ferreting out fraud, waste, and abuse, which obviously, at one point in time was the Democrats agenda too. At least lip service was paid to it, even though

nothing ever happened. Further to the efforts that are actually going on now, Carrie Lake recently named is the Trump administration senior advisor to the US Agency for Global Media. That's apparently the one that oversees Voice of America, and she is hard at work announcing that she's reducing millions in costs, exposing suspicious activity, and eliminating positions at this

global media agency. She issued a letter US AGM and outlets it overseas will be reduced to their statutory functions, and associated personnel will be reduced to the minimum presence

and functions require by law. Those affected by the action we placed on paid administrative leave beginning Saturday, March fifteenth, that's past Saturday, and remain on leave until further notice, she said in a letter of the US Agency for Global Media will continue to deliver on all statutory programs that fall under the agency's purview and shed everything that's not statutorily required. So I fully support the President's executive order.

Waste fraud abuse run rampant in this agency, and American taxpayers should have to fund it. Go check with Barack Obama. This would be one of the areas that he was talking about, presumably. In her letter, she highlighted what she described as a few of the most egregious findings, massive national security violations, including spies and terrorist sympathizers and or supporters infiltrating the agency, eye popping, self dealing, involved in contracts, grants,

and high value settlement agreements. Just these are quotes obscene over spending, including a nearly quarter of a billion dollar lease for a Pennsylvania Avenue high rise that has no broadcast facilities to meet the needs of the agency, and includes a nine million dollar commission to a private real estate with connections, hundreds of millions being spent on fake news companies, and a product that often parrots the talking points of America's adversaries. She says, this agency is not

salvagel from top to bottom. This agency is a giant rot and burdened the American taxpayer, national security risk for this nation, and is irretrievably broken. While these are harsh words, while there are bright spots within the agency with personnel who are talented and dedicated public servants, this is the exception rather than the rule. So it's unfortunate that the work was done by self interested insiders and coordination with

outside activist groups and radical leftist advocacy organizations. To quote Trump, proof close quote, the agency made it impossible to reform. In fact, they weren't just trump proofing the agency from political leadership, they were accountability proofing the agency from the

American people. They did all this while spending taxpayer money to create false narratives which were amplified by biased media counterparts with clear conflicts of interest at the Washington Post, NPR, and more to actively cover up their obscene waste, fraud, and abuse. Now Subsequently, she issued a video at the office building that she was speaking about in that least Agreement.

I'm sitting here on the thirteenth floor of a shiny, brand new, beautiful skyscraper building that is costing you the taxpair of fortune. Fast forward in the online video. Fancy conference rooms with wall to wall windows. There are six conference room at least that's what I've counted so far. In this building. There are four bridges to nowhere, massive waterfalls, Italian marble finishes everywhere, leather furnishing, all of which being paid for by the American taxpayer. And it's not the

only thing we've seen. We're seeing grants where they've taken the grants that they've changed and they've changed the contract just days before we I guess the Trump administration got in here to make it less transparent for us to find out where the money's going and what's happening with these grantees. It was an obvious, obvious sign that they wanted to keep us from finding out anything that we could possibly go on and change to make it better

for the American taxpayer. I want you to know I'm hard at work here in Washington, DC and working to make sure that we are not being We're not being built out of our hard earned dollars built, and we're going to make sure that we're doing everything we can to cancel contracts that can be canceled, save money, downsize, and make sure there's no misuse of your dollars in this action. She apparently locked out more than one thousand employees at the Voice of America. It's everywhere, folks, every

corner of government. And again I will note that I'm waiting for them to start looking at the Department Defense.

we're number thirty eight. I want to lead us back to number one. So there's something that something's required. And if we're paying for number if we're playing for number one, we're going to have to do in this state. For example, we're going to take the state income tax down, not just from seven brackets to two, as I guess the current leadership is done, but down to zero brackets because we're going to get rid of the income tax in this state. Zero income tax in the state of Ohio.

He said, it's your money, not the governments. You deserve to keep what you earn. We've got to celebrate hard

work and success. How about that. According to the Census Bureau, Texas had met mike greation number of almost one hundred and forty thousand people coming into its state, Florida one hundred and thirty six almost one hundred and thirty seven thousand coming in at number three, North Carolina ten thousand or one hundred and ten thousand and eight hundred people coming into the state South Carolina number four, net migration

numbers of seventy two thousand and change. And it might be largely in part of the fact they don't charge an income tax. Ramasomi said, if eight other states have managed to do it, then so too will we here in Ohio. People ask me, how are you going to do it? Said, Look, if we're the state that sent somebody to be the first man in the world to walk on the moon. The state will not be the greatest challenge, or this will not be rather to be

the greatest challenge that'll how has ever conceived. I don't know if you can draw a parallel on that one. I know a lot of people are going to be like, what are we going to do with the mister revenue? What are we going to do the mister revenue? Those states that don't have an income tax Florida, Alaska, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington, Wyoming, and Tennessee, which doesn't explain how North Carolina could come into number four, but I think it's a great idea. Lower taxes are always of

interest in me. The question is dealing with the financial challenges that he'll face. But by all accounts, he's doing very very well in the polls, and considering in a red state, it'd be Vva Gramma swimming versus Amy acting, Amy, lockdown, close small businesses, don't drink after ten o'clock acting kind of stuff. I think we may be able to call him governor in fairly short order, and that'd be a great thing. So I like the guy I'm impressed by what he says and what he's done, both in a

private his private world. Obviously a very successful businessman, and he doesn't need the job. I know a lot of Democrats a scum. I got the billionaires, billionaires, billionaires. Well, you know there is something to be said for that. My understanding is Trump donates his salary to charity. Elon Musk isn't drawing his salary offering his talents for the good of America. Again, going back to Barack Obama, Barack Obama thought this was a great idea. Exactly what DOJE

is doing? Back in twenty eleven? When did it become a bad idea? Just asking out loud sort of rhetorical question six fifty five fifty five krsty talk station Job Opportunities, Nick Smiley, the executive director of the Tools Program, follow by Christopher Smithman at seven twenty. I hope you can stick around.

trades industry. When when to make sure we open every door, make the opportunities available to them, and then provide resources such as scholarships for transition money and tool packages as well.

And you know, when you've completed a project and every time you walk into a room like I did that, it really is. It is a rewarding thing. And I've talked to folks who you know, worked high iron and did some steel projects, and every time they drove by a building, it just overwhelming sense of pride that you know what, if it wasn't for me, that wouldn't be there.

on it. When you do have kids. Fair warning to anybody, they're gonna get sick of hearing that, they're gonna get sick of driving by everything on seventy five and dedes I built that, I built that, I built that, you know, so definitely works for us on the pride side. Keeps your kids in line, lets them know that you actually do know what you're talking about.

So with all the high schools I go to, the tools program now has forty participating schools from Van Wert down in northern Kentucky, and in every one of those high schools never fails three or four of the kids booming to get into that electric industry. Right now, it seems like electrician is the most popular. Maybe two years ago it was plumbers.

was really excited about his future career. So it's true, and there are multiple opportunities out there in these trades. I understand you're doing. The Tools program is doing a sort of a fundraiser kickoff thing.

great event. All proceeds going to our Scholarships Foundation, making sure that we can keep providing those transitional funds for these students as they leave high school and head into the skill trades industry.

always a great time at the event. Top Golf does an amazing job at getting us all set up, so it's pretty pretty easy deal for me as the organizer. But everybody seems to have a great time. And like I said before, we've got lots surprises to give away, so we just want everybody to come out and have a great time, leave with something nice and all for a great cause.

whatever trade they're thinking about. You know, for pet it's the electrician. Want to get him out on that job shadow see see if that's what he likes. If he likes that and he works through the summer, the perfect plan is that student then comes back to high school their senior year. That company has now hired them, so they are either co opting or they're just already employed waiting to graduate that year. We have them apply for

our scholarship. Nine times out of ten student wins the scholarship, they're already placed they graduate, So now we've given them direct placement. We've given them a scholarship of five to twenty five hundred dollars for transition money that can be used for whatever, whether it's a down payment for a car, clothing, tools, anything like that. And then the pure focus of the program is once they get out of high school, we've got them direct place, We've got them a toolkit, we've

got them a scholarship. I like to tell any student, once we get you into the industry, if you figure out that it's not for you, that's just what it is. It's just not for you. Because we've opened every door, we've made it as simple as possible, and we just want to make sure that we're sparking that interest. So every time I'm on your show, I can't can't. I was gonna say this at the end, but I want to kind of plug you out. I got to thank

you and Joe. You guys have an amazing platform. You guys have us on the support that you've given us and allowed us to be on your platform. Promote our program, promote the great things we're doing. It's amazing. I'm Brian. We couldn't do it without you, guys, And I just want you to know that every time I'm on your show never fails. A grandpa, a mom, a dad, somebody

reaches out to me because they heard me talking. And every single time that's happened, we've got their grandson or son or daughter place.

I mean, fast forward four years. They probably got a big bank account, savings account, maybe they're already participating in the retirement funding. They're working every single day, and somebody else is coming out with a sheepskin from a university with a music appreciation degree or like my degree, political science degree and kind of puzzling at what am I going to do, gonna be a barista at Starbucks. I just love the program. I love the concept. I can't

thank you enough for what you're doing. And I'll recommend my listeners go to Tools program dot org where they can get all the details about this event and get registered for it. It's going to be a great time, and it lasts a long time. It starts at noon, it goes all the way to five point thirty.

relates to raising them. And so you saw parents going to school board meetings trying to articulate points about their children, and school boards across this country even going so far to have those parents arrested, and it didn't matter what

the subject matter was. The parent is the power. And so now what you're seeing is the federal government, through the Executive brand, saying you know what, I'm going to dismantle this federal agency, and I'm going to empower each individual state to kill or the education that they believe best serves their communities. People. Because I'm talking to people Brian Thomas. They're saying, well, the executive branch is trying to get rid of education. They are all kinds of

iterations of this. That is absolutely crazy what the executive branch is saying. I'm going to take the money that you all that we're dishing out, and we're going to allocate that to each of the states and let you determine how you want to educate your kids. And why this is important to me, Brian Thomas is I am a conservative man who believes in fatherhood and being a great dad like you, and I don't want any teacher.

And I love teachers. My wife was a teacher. I don't want any teacher telling me how to raise my child. If my child goes to school and is thinking about suicide, I want the school to call me and tell me what's going on with my child. If my child is saying, hey, I think I'm I want the school to call me the parent and tell me what's going on with my

minor child. If my child is in a classroom with a furry and my child comes home barking or MEOWI and they're accommodating the furry with some kind of litter box, in the bathroom. I want to know that that's going on with my child, and no teacher has the ability to keep that information from a parent. And so what's going on to the left, the Democrats who are lost their way, they don't understand that parents are rising up

saying I want to raise my child now. If you on the West Coast want to have furries and you want to accommodate them with litter boxes inside of your restrooms, you can do that on the West Coast. If you want to do that on the East Coast, it's okay, but not in the Midwest. We don't want furries. And if there is a hurry and my child is coming home meowing because the kid next to him as a furry, and I don't know what the hell is going on,

I want the teacher to tell me about it. Brian Thomas, you know what I'm saying is so real, it's really happening.

able to do it. But in all cases, everywhere, my argument would be along your lines, Christopher, parents are entitled to know what's going on. They are the parent. The teachers stand in the shoes of the parents while they're at school. But that's just from a you know, a liability perspective in local parenthice is what it's known under the law. But that does not take away the parents' right to raise their children as a fit Amen. Exclamation

point will continue with Christopher Smithman more Smith. Event after I mentioned my good friends at Bud Herbert Motors more than seventy five years. They are proud of Bud Herbert Motors. The name is legendary. BUTTERB Motors started the operation, you know, so many years ago and always said, the most expensive tool you'll ever buy is a cheap one. That's because they don't last, they fall apart and then you're back looking out for another one. That's if you go to

the box store. Work with fifth generation Famine operator Bud Herbert. You will be working with a Herbert family member. They are proud of their organization and they will take all the efforts necessary to find the right equipment for you. And they only carry the finest, world class brands. You got your John Deere's, your x Marks steel and Honda power equipment. That's where I got Mahanda pushmoher and they told me it's the last one you're ever gonna have

to buy, isn't it amazing? I'm done my entire life. I am done with pushbowers delivered to your front door or your driveways, the case may be. And they service everything they sell, and they're so knowledgeable about what they sell. It's just the box stores don't have any vested interest in making sure you're happy and with the right equipment.

way it really worked. But look at this, it does work. That way now. I mean, it's just I just can't it over it.

so many different companies will be created through this. And so I go, there's a guy named Elon Musk that's behind this, and he's now talking about going to Mars.

But in this conversation with whether it was Tesla Starlink owning what was a Twitter now is X and I'm sure he owns many other things that I'm missing, including space X, he now positioned himself and one hundred maybe two hundred people that are saying, you know what, I need to do a deep dive, support the president and get in here through this organization they're calling DOGE and figure out what our federal government is doing and how they're spending their money, and in that the left has

decided to make him a pariah, a very bad person, when they used to love him. This is the guy who has Tesla space x. You know, I love the social media platform, whether you know Twitter, We love Elon Musk. And now that he has aligned himself with the federal government and the executive branch and specifically President Trump, the left wants to kill him. They're literally setting things on fire,

going after people's personal teslas, going after dealerships. That is violence, and there should be no place in politics for violence. This was the party that said we are tolerant, we want to expand we're inclusive of everybody. Our tent is big enough for anybody in everybody. And here we see

the truth. A party that cannot accept the election result, and what they're trying to do through federal judges, through intimidation, is trying to overthrow the results, are make it difficult for the executive branch to govern.

you got a guy that's fit for the job. He's not even drawn a salary. He's taken a break from his own money making profitable entities to do this on behalf of the American people in order to save us from ourselves. Elected officials weren't going after it. But when you look at what he's cut out and what the efforts are that he has led to cut the fraud, waste abuse out of government, Like, wait a second, how

could you be against this? How could you be against getting rid of SOSIS security numbers for people who are in their hundreds. You know that's a possible area of fraud. Someone could use that number and get an unlawful employment. They could get checks that aren't properly do. That's a simple,

low hanging fruit, and yet you're against it. I don't mean they're defending the indefensible or trying to anyway, I think unsuccessfully, just screaming into the air that, oh my god, evil, evil, Orange Man's Apprentice is going It doesn't make any sense.

And then so we're we're not having discussions about as you discided, you just said, incited one hundred and fifty year old getting a Social Security check. If we're worried about the condition of social security, we don't want checks going out to people that are one hundred and fifteen years old, that are dead and somebody else is cashing the check. And I just can't see why any Democrat can be against fraud, can be against corruption, can be

against waste. And so at the end of the day, it's a losing proposition for them as we move into the two year election, and I'm going, what are you guys gonna run on? Are you gonna say you spent the last two years Brian Thomas saying I was against fraud, I was against Doug against It doesn't make sense to me.

are embarrassed by what they're seeing. Where Jewish students are being targeted by people who are carrying Hamas flags, which is a terrorist organization, on their campuses, with boards that have refused to intervene, presidents that have refused to hold the students accountable, and it's taking the executive branch to stay and step in. We are not going to allow anti Semitic behavior, not language, because that's protected. Your behavior.

Where you are threatening Jewish students, you are standing in their way so they cannot get into the library, or to the classroom, or to wherever they're trying to go. No one understands why these universities are allowing the behavior because their free speech is protected. So that's not what we're dealing with. We're dealing with you threatening people, setting things on fire, breaking windows, vandalism. You don't have the right if you are from another country to come into

our country and then threaten other people. That is crossing the lines. But my point is Columbia, Harvard, and Yale, they should never give them back the four hundred million dollars.

We should force Columbia to step up and say every student who comes here, no matter where you're from in the world, it doesn't matter your child can come here safely, get a good education, and come home in one piece as my daughter Brian Thomas is looking at universities because there are a lots of parents that are in my situation. I've been saving incrementally for my daughter, like I've done for the other five to go to college. So we have this dream for our children to get a good education.

So my point is I now, in the back of my mind, I'm thinking, when I go to these college visits, which we just did one, what's gonna happen? Is this what I'm gonna call one of these woke universities where I have to turn my TV on and see people like they did in Trump Power this past week. They're chanting down with this holding Hama's flags, being arrested. It's not what I want for my child. I don't mind peaceful protests, I don't mind speech that is protected. That's

the conservative nature. But when it turns to violence, Brian.

not stepping in and saying violence is wrong. We condemn it. And if it were happening to black students, if there were white students standing in the front of a live ary blacking black students are African American students from entering, we would hear from the Democratic Party no matter what their race was. Well, no matter who they're talking heads are.

that you're going to get harmed. So you know, that's going on in these campuses. But that's a very excellent point. It was going to make it if you didn't make it. This is a race of people. They may practice Judaism as a religion, but regardless of whether they do or not, and many of my Jewish friends are not practicing Jews, but they are still Jewish people. They're going after a race of people, and that's a race of people that may or may not be in favor of Israel. They

may be in favor of a Kalestinian state. A lot of Jewish people profess to be of that mindset. So you're just painting with a broad brush, going after all Jewish students just because they're Jews. And that is inherently racism, but it's got its own name, of course, anti Semitism. It's awful.

here studying at our major university. I support the federal government from pulling their four hundred million dollars of funding from Columbia. Don't stop their executive branch. Go all the way to every university that refuses to protect any race of people. But we're discussing right now the Jewish students that are there where acts of violence are being practiced upon them. It's wrong, and I denounce it.

going kind of silver what Christopher was talking about. But fifty seven to forty two percent say that Democrats should mainly work to stop the Republican agenda as opposed to working with the GOPED for maybe to get something along the lines of what Democrats want into legislation. I know that seems like a tough road to ho these days, but just fighting anything that Republicans want, period, end of story. And you know, you go back to Christopher's observations and

defending the indefensible. It seems like insanity. And what are they asserting They can say no to what the Republicans are asking or pushing for, even though it makes them look like idiots. I don't understand how you can be in favor of fraud, waste, and abuse, which is the point that Christopher was making that I've been making a lot of late. Everybody has been but Democrats in a state of disarray. You know, Chucky Schumer's up against the wall now because he voted to keep the government open.

I thought that's what the Democrats always wanted, Oh, don't shut down the government. Well, they found themselves in a rather challenging position of being the party who would absolutely have been responsible for shutting down the federal government, which would have left everything in Donald Trump's control. He gets to decide what's essential in government and what's not. And I have a feeling the Department of Government efficiency would

have been deemed essential. So and and I kind of what prompted that I looked up in this left wing group Greater Sin Saint Politics on Facebook is pointing out this this rally. And I'm not going to give you the details because I think it sounds stupid, but Stand

for Justice protests to hold Warren Davidson accountable. Bring your signs and join Westside Democrat Club as we call for Representative Warren Davidson to defend his constituents from Nazis terrorizing our communities and dangerous executive orders threatening Ohioan safety and livelihoods. We got to be quick to know Congressman Davidson's not a Nazi. He wasn't viewing Nazi propaganda or Nazi vile bile.

And I don't know what executive orders that Warren Davidson is responsible for that are threatening Ohioan safety and livelihoods. Warren Davidson doesn't execut issue executive orders, so see Republican protest them. Regardless of the good he's done for his constituents, evil Republican protest him. Seven fifty six. If you I have Kosity talk Station Money Money with Brian James up next, I hope he can stick around Trump's.

things aside. At least I can get my head around, Well, if they're charging twenty five percent on our goods coming in and then a corresponding tariff on their goods coming in, would you know, serve to perhaps end the tariffs completely. But if you're trying to tariff somebody into doing something they otherwise wouldn't do, and we ended up in this trade war because of course they'll put reciprocal tariffs on.

So tariffs kind of bother me. And it's one of the things I believe I differ with in the Trump administration. But people are freaked out about tariffs and kind of panicking and it has impacted the stock market at least, although they've been, you know, predicting a correction for a long time now, Brian, and I know you've read articles about a correction coming. These drops in the markets have been attributed to the Trump tariffs. So what's this story

about this and should we be panicking? Well, yeah, that's lots of unpacked there.

What the market can handle bad news, it can handle good news. What it can't handle is unknown news. And with the Trump administration waffling back and forth on whether we're gonna put these tariffs against Canada or no, we're gonna hold off for a month, that kind of thing. What the market wants to know is how likely our company is going to be able to make a dollar and how many dollars are they going to make? And when we've got the rules changing, you know, think of

it this way. Can we predict if the Bengals are going to win a game if they change the length of the field during the game. You can't really predict exactly anything when when kind of the metrics of how we measure things are changing all the time, so as tariffs and the rules are changing on a daily basis, not only the Trump administration but also as you mentioned, countries are reciprocating, so we're just moving things back and

forth on both ends. The market hates that, and that's why we're in a bit of a downturn here.

them to. You know, that's not quite a tariff, but our threats to back out of NATO has gotten finally European nations to start spending the correct or closer to the correct percentages of their GDPs on defense. That's the same structure they're trying here. Let's just simply make the change the rules, change the inputs, meaning the US is going to put less into these kinds of things. That's going to force everybody to react in a manner that we're hoping to gain from them, and then we can

see whether we still need it. We don't want permanent tariffs. They're not a way to make money. They're a way to change the behavior of those we're doing business with, and once we get that, we'll.

a bundle of other stocks. But assuming someone is buying a specific stock, like let's just use Tesla as an example, which is down fifty percent, how do you decide what to do with something like that?

the lifestyle you're trying to. That's a little different than I want to own Tesla, and I really support Elon Musk, so I'm going to ride this out. Well, that better not be your Neste, because that's going to be a volatile stock. And the reasons for volatility in that specific example are completely self inflicted. Yes, man invented a product that everybody wanted and that filled a need, and then he chose to throw it into the fire for whatever reason.

who is not driven by profit and efficiency. He's driven at least in some part by power.

At least historically, that's always been the trend. Unless something like the Fiat currency collapses because of our overspending and government that's a completely different scenario that we can't plan for. But beyond that, it just continues to go up over time in spite of the downturns from time to time.

four or five hundred years. This is why you learned about the Dutch East India Company in the fifth grade. You didn't know why you were learning it. Your fifth grade teacher didn't know why they were teaching it. But this is why it was the origin of the stock market. That's five hundred years ago. So now fast forward to today, and every company under the sun worth at salt you can buy shares of, and sometimes they go up and down.

I think what it boils down to, Brian Thomas, is that there are five years that I consider attention getters within the last century. That's two thousand and eight, nineteen thirty seven, seventy four, two thousand and two, and twenty twenty two.

there know that. And there are team ways to get in touch with people nowadays and can and convince them how to think a little differently using social media, of course, So the ways to kind of protect here is if you feel like you might be in a situation like this, you might have a loved one in a situation like this, then make sure you have alerts set up on all of your financial accounts.

Joining the fifty five KRC Morning Show to talk about a book she co wrote along with Barbara Pice, PhD It is Fat, Stressed and Sick msg Processed Food in America's health Crisis. Doctor Reid is a real pleasure to have you on the program this morning.

I remember all the raids was getting Chinese restaurants to drop MSG from their from the foods, and we're going back a couple of decades at least on that one, and a lot of them advertised no MSG added. Good. Well apparently it's all over the place.

processed food. They're using spinach, they're using a specific kind of cheese, or they're using whole chunks of meat, And if I did that at home, it wouldn't be defined as process So how does that, you know, homemade preparation type thing differ from a processed food as we know it.

that is process you're taking. Yeah, you're taking milk, you're fermenting it, you're you know, having it. You know, cultures that are added to it to degrade the proteins and caseine, the major protein in milk or dairy products, is then degraded and so you get glutamate as a byproduct of the fermentation of that milk. The more age the.

hydrolyzed collagen. They're using an acid hydrolysis process on that collagen that will degrade that protein and break it up into its subunits of amino acids, glutamate, you know, being a significant part of that degradation. Weigh protein is a it's actually a cheese byproduct, waste product from you know, making cheese, and so they wanted to use whey because they didn't want to have a bunch of waste from

the cheese manufacturing. So now it's all over our you know, different protein enriched products, but like whig protein isolate or so a protein isolate, these are code words of it went through an extreme amount of processing. So what is not processed would be eating you know, like you said, your vegetables, your whole grains like you know, brown rice or quin waw. Starchy vegetables could be used as a carbohyde source like.

that a healthful thing to do? By contrast? Or are we sort of spin in our wheels thinking it's better for us?

like mozzarella or cottage cheese. And you're kind of just making more mindful choices to improve the health, especially if you're afflicted with a chronic inflammatory condition, which most of us are, Like, I mean, I think there's like seventy percent of the population that has at least one chronic inflammatory condition.

signaling a variety of different functions. So when it's at high levels, it's signaling stress. It is the stress response in our body at high levels. So if you think about like anxiety for example, or people who are experiencing like panic attacks, it is typically excessive glutamate signaling that is triggering. Yes, and so if you are constantly in that you know, fight, flight, fear, fawn response, it is an excess of glutamate signaling going on in your nervous

system and so yeah, and so it is. It's fascinating how this is absolutely wired to our survival response.

signs of it, So anxiety being one of them. Are there any other signs that someone might be suffering from this perhaps MSG connected problem.

entire category of depression labeled glutamate based depression. So there's depression, anxiety. My whole journey started with my youngest being on the spectrum with autism. And for those parents or anybody who's afflicted with autism, you can understand that many are it trapped in a fight like fear fawn response, or they're

very vulnerable to a stress response. It doesn't take much from their environment to be like, okay, they want to shut down, right, And that she was very sensitive to glutamate, had no idea that this was really going to help her condition and have a much better quality of life by really being aware where the glutamate is in the food supply. So cancer and I go through a lot of that with cancer is if you think about cancer,

cells is a metabolic cellular abnormality. Lutamate signaling will cause a lot of that abnormality because it's a stress response, and cancer can sometimes be what the body thinks is a cure to that stress response.

more time for the weather. Tene nine says today turning sunny and we'll have a higher fifty four down to thirty nine overnight, clear sky, mostly sun tomorrow with the highest seventy few clouds over night down to fifty two, and a warm windy day. Wednesday, they got a front coming in rain and a cooler temperature show up around sunset. We'll see a highest seventy two though right now it's thirty seven degrees in time for final traffic from the US.

Christopher smithment with the Smith event as well in my conversation with Brian James, I just wanted to read a little segment out of this article I saw Epoch Times, and it's a it's a read that

you should read. Massive Lithium ion battery fire raises questions about California's energy future and it talks about this fire that broke out at this battery storage facility. You probably recall me talking about or maybe read about it in yourself and the news. But all the shenanigans that went on, the fast tracking, the the the the approval process, the looking the other way because oh this is green, this is a green project, and you know, ignoring the huge,

huge safety problems that these present. So let me just read a little excerpt from it. What's in the plume has ample experience with lithium fires. There have been ten battery storage fires in California since twenty twenty one, and Vistra that's the one that most recently caught fire several times used LG batteries comprised of roughly fifty percent manganese,

nickel and cobalt. At the county's request, the APA began monitoring early for air quality testing for hydrogen fluoride, one of the most toxic compounds emitted in battery fires, along

with particulate matter typically measuring in air quality monitoring. Vistra also installed its own air monitors, but there was no mention of heavy metals in reporting from the EPA, VISTRA, state agencies, or the county, not until scientists working with the Elkhorn Slaw that's the area made a stunning announcement in late January. As a result of the fallout from the smoke, surface soil and nature preserve had drastically elevated levels of these compounds hundreds two thousands of times above

background levels. Part of the concern over heavy metal that they don't biodegrade and can easily accumulate in the food chain. Even at very low levels. They have a cumulative impact over time, making the determination of a safe threshold a matter of contention. In humans, exposure to heavy metals and other toxins such as pesticides, can give longer term impacts, damaging DNA, interfering with protein and enzyme function, creating oxidative stress,

and stimulating cancer progression. According to multiple global studies in livestock, and they had a number of stillborn livestock out there real high concentrations after this fire. Studies show exposure can cause damage to the central nervous system and reproductive failure, as well as impacting other organ systems, among other impacts.

Nickel and cobalt especially problematic, according to do To Joseph Landolf, associated professor with USC's Kex School of Medicine and an expert in chemically induced carc carcinenicity who often works with the EPA. He said quote Nickel is a carcinogen, especially in insoluble form, where it can cause damage to the

sinuses and lungs, resulting in tumors and occasionally to the kidneys. Normally, he said, EPA would conduct a complete risk assessment of the whole area, which is expensive and time consuming calculate the exposure risk properly. Some industrial hygienis and area resident Michael Polcaalba said reporting from the government and VISTRA mitt misleading, said from a tennial standpoint, is a big shock that

EPA was only monitoring for two airborne hazards. Monterey County has just taken a back seat, and no one else is asking the obvious question, what's in the plume? That giving the all clear sign to move back the next day was based on just two point five particulate matter and hydrogen fluoride, he said, referring to particles measuring two point five micrometers in diamond or less used to monitor air quality. Said they didn't even consider other contaminants involved.

And this article just goes on and on and on about sort of turning the other way and not providing a sufficient information. And this is dangerous stuff. I mean, the more I read, the more my mouth fell open and disbelief. And these poor folks living in the area, you know, it's literally a carpet coating of these dangerous compounds on everything. And because it doesn't break down in the soil, it's likely to end up in the food chain. Plants grow in the soil and it's absorbed up through

the plants. Cows eat the grass, and of course it's absorbed into the cows. I mentioned the reproductive issues. And again the article starts out with one farmer out there who just shortly after the plume hit up and coated the area. He lost quite a few livestock stillborns. So you know it ain't green when you think about it.

Along these lines, of course, you got the manufacturing process which is terrible, and you got the slave labor in Africa that's bringing forth all these rare earth minerals that go into the batteries, and then of course storage of the batteries and these runaway fires that happened. So yeah, uh, you don't hear that from Greta Thunberg and the global warming folks, do you, Yeah, wait till it comes to your neighborhood. Anyhow. Epoch Times massive lithium ion battery fire
