55KRC Thursday Show - Ken Kober, AFP, Empower U, Massie, Jay Ratliff

have provol in the uh state of the city. Just the other day said that youth violence is down more than thirty five. I would never suggest he's lying, Joe, but huh, he said it's down because of programs that work against violence, feeding students at Government Square. You realized they had a food stand down here. I don't know if it's don't know if if the hot Dogs Dan got knocked over in the riot or not. Something called advanced peace and a new crisis response team cited by

after have pro ball for why youth violence is down? Whatever, Thank you, Liam Uh summing up sort of my perception of that on that topic. At seven oh five, we're gonna hear from Ken Cover FOP President Ken Kob representing the police officers of the City of Cincinnati. We will talk public safety and we will ask sort of out loud, the rhetorical question, if everybody's worried about youth violence and crime, why the hell did the residents of Hamilton County of

like Connie Pilach and Charmaine McGuffey. Well, that sums it up. Maybe you're on fire today just Trecker and the Addison police are dissolving or have dissolved. And you know, I don't have an opinion or comment on that necessarily, except an observation from my youth is that you never ever, ever went even one mile an hour over the speed limit when you were driving through Addison. My Dell High and West Side friends know exactly what I'm talking about.

If you're of my vintage or maybe a little bit older. There were all kinds of rumors as to why the speed was so strictly enforced in downtown Addison, but well, no police force there. I guess maybe the sheriffs will be patrolling it. I don't know. We'll find out from Kenkober at seven oh five on that one. Americans for Prosperity, Donovan and ne O. The work is not done yet. Well today we'll be talking at seven thirty with Donovan about the Lame Duck agenda in Columbus, Land of Dysfunction,

Political Dysfunction. Jackie Williams doing in Power Youse seminar tonight. It's going to be very interesting and I'm looking forward to having Jackie on the pro I'm going to talk about warning signs of Alzheimer's. You heard my heavenly the my dad chime in, Heavenly chime in earlier there with the no Obviously our family went through that, and it's just a god awful, god awful disease. Go ahead and prioritize what sucks most. But right up there at the

very top, I think I'm going to put Alzheimer's. Congressman Thomas Massey had a fallop in the schedule yesterday or he had an obligation he had attend to yesterday was to be on in advance of judgement. Politano irritating a lot of people that judge did yesterday. He was he seemed to be like he was. I don't know. I guess since at the five o'clock hour can sum it up as he seemed a little pissed off. Did you see his facial expressions on the zoom call there, Joe,

Were you able to watch that? Yeah? Anyway, that's why he came across to me and didn't He didn't really caught into the doge cutting back on government thing. I was excited about that, and they still remain excited. He's, well, these aren't authorized by constitutions, like neithers is a part of education, I said, I don't care. He's talking about having to put office space and create all this new you know, it's another layer of bureaucracy. And my responses

will does it have to be? I mean, if you put vvak Gramma SWI I mean Elon musk in in an unused conference room and give him access to areas where they can cut government. They don't need off of space or help or anything. They just need to identify areas if the government can be cut and just cut it, period, doesn't have to be formally established organization or cabinet post or anything. Just get the job done. We got all kinds of areas where we can cut on that, maybe

have a little fun and games with that. This morning here in the early part of the show, and Matt Gates Attorney General, we'll get Congress Smamassi's initial reaction on that, because that's the man who's been apparently tapped for the job. Gets your reaction too, if you like to call five one three seven eight hundred eighty two to three talk go to town five fifty on at and T funds.

And of course we always and the fifty five Karoseme Morning Show on Thursdays with Iheartmedy aviation expert Jay Ratliffe. Hell of a good man he is. We'll talk about passengers being rude, add them to the list of everybody else apparently being rude these days San Francisco winning a battle against Oakland Airport, Spirit air hit by gunfire and also struggling financially. I tacked that one on there. Plus

we always end with hub delays. Jay Ratliffe at eight thirty fifty five care see dot com and you can't listen live to the angry judge Nita Politano, the always enlightening Jack Atherton with the big picture and bring him acount with a few words on energy policy, which is exactly where I wanted to start this morning. This is a wonderful illustration of the batcrap insanity of energy policy.

We turned to California, where the residents of the state of California struggle mightily against the always increasing price of gasoline brought about by government policy. So they didn't even wait for the election result to be to completely dry. The California Air Resources Board aka CARB just voted to increase the low carbon fuel standard by thirty percent. Now, this thirty percent reduction has to take place by twenty thirty, so you've got yourself a few years here. But the

gist of it is the program requires refiners. There'll be the folks that make the gasoline to reduce their quote carbon intensity, close quote in the fuel, or if you can't reduce the carbon intensity of the fuel, buy credits from renewable producers. Of course, ultimately described as a de facto carbon tax, indirectly subsidizing politically favored businesses. That's how the journal described it. So I don't know how you reduce carbon intensity of fuel. Let's just say you can't.

Let's say it's against the laws of physics. We can't be repealed for you people out there going, let's just repeal the laws of physics. Old joke running among Democrats. So you have to buy carbon credits. So they explained in the journal, explains how it works, which is what drove me absolutely crazy. Under the program, electric utilities, biofuel producers, and hydrogen and electric vehicle charging companies get credits that

they can sell to refiners. So these chosen businesses apparently are loaded up with these carbon credits, were readily available for the open market, a market created out a whole cloth by legislation. Somehow, it reminds me of bitcoin. It's like one day it wasn't there, and the next day it's there. It's like, wait, wait a minute, where did this source of revenue come from? This thing of value which consists of ones and zero? Where did these carb

credits come from? Oh? Look, peace of legislation created them, and now there's a market for them. A market created from a whole cloth by politicians in California and elsewhere. So certain producers like electric utilities, biofilip producers, hydrogen electric vehicle charging companies get the credits, which allows them to sell to refiners who apparently are incapable of meeting the

CARB standards. All right, Utilities take the proceeds from the sale of these fictitious CARB credits and subsidize electric vehicles, which no one wants to buy. Now get a load of this, though, The Durnal points out one of the program's biggest beneficiaries has been dairy farms that capture men methane from the kalmanore and they make more money selling credits than they do from selling the milk. That is

the point of their business in the first place. But then it's noted, remember this is all in artificial market. Credit prices. These carb credits have recently fallen because more renewable producers and dairy farms are looking for these subsidies, so they're capturing their methane and selling them. It's a law of supply and demand, right. Oh, look, we got more CARB credits because we captured more cow flatulence. Hey,

goodie for us. Well, the market then gets saturated with CARB credits, so the price of these carb credits drops. Now the California Air Resources Board, the one that just tightened the standards. We'll get to the reason why here. They are concerned that declining credit prices could make green

investments on economic. In other words, your dairy producerver there's going, well, wait a second, I'm gonna invest all this money to capture my manure methane, and the CARB credits just don't pay what they used to, so I'm not gonna do that anymore. It's a pointless exercise. So what does CARB do? They're like, oh, wait a second, how do we get the price of these credits to go up? Ah, we tighten the fuel standards, ergo, boosting the credit prices, ergo. Ultimately,

Californians pay more money for gasoline at the pump. It's ultimately. It's where it all leads. Apparently, the California Air Resources Board predicted last year that the stricter standard would increase the gasoline price at the pump by forty seven cents a gallon by next year. Others suggest they could climb sixty five sense a gallon in the near term, or eighty five cents a gallon by the twenty thirty deadline. They say regulators played down a concern that tightening the

fuel standard would hurt low income residents. Ready, low income residents cannot even afford the current cost of four dollars and fifty cents a gallon for gasoline. Go ahead and add eighty five cents to that. But according to the California Air Resources Board, which arbitrarily sets the price, are the limits on these various manufacturers of fuels that we

all need? Claim that these low income residents could, in their words, avoid the potential pass through cost of the regulation by buying evs Okay, I think it goes to that, saying that a lot of low income households can't afford even a new internal combustion engine car, let alone the e electric vehicles which cost even more than the internal

combustion engine automobiles. Period, end of story. So out of whole cloth, they create a CARB or they create these offset markets they create, they hand over the credits to certain industries. Those industries sell them to the industries that can't comply with the CARB standards that are randomly set, and when the price of these credits goes down, these standards go up to increase the price of the CARB. Do you see the circuitous crap that being shoved down

our throats, none of this would exist. It's a fake market. It's all manufactured, it's manipulated. We're all being just. I suppose that it is, as we ballot the alter that our excelation is causing climate change. I what planet did I wake up on? And I don't know when it happened, but I woke up on like a planet, planetary body in an unstable orbit around Remulac or something. Because this shire doesn't feel like the world that I woke up or that was born in five nineteen fifty five k

City Talks days. Just stick around, love to hear from you. Got a comment, got a few funny things going on. I got to get to the stack of two, but got local stories. But I'd rather talk to you, so feel free to call. I'll be right back in a moment.

eight just recently called it the other day. Bottom line is, people want to have natural gas in their homes if they want it, preserving the right to choose and flying in the face of this climate change nonsense sy Even Washington State leftist liberals want the option. Reconcile that one. And as Biden prepares to part company with the well the balance of reality, his environment over texting agency finalize the new rule this the other day, taxing methane emissions

from the oil and gas sector. Now you might wonder how they could issue a new rule creating a new tax, but this is all part of the inflation Reduction Acts, which apparently included the allowance of regulations relating to waste emissions charges. Well, they had discretion on how tightly to clamp down, so clamp down they did that. I could tell you how much per cubic ton it gradually goes up to the bottom line is it's an additional fee

that's being levied. According to the release from the EVA, the final waste emission charge the latest in a series of actions under President Biden's methane strategy. Are you ready to improve efficiency in the oil and gas sector? Support American jobs?

American jobs. Now, the other two throwaway points will protect clean air and reinforce US leadership on the global stage. I don't know what the latter means except virtue signaling to the rest of the world who doesn't want to pursue the climate policies that the Western nations are being forced to pursue. The Iranian Vice President, Sheena Ansari, was at COP twenty nine just the other day. The Iranians happened to be around a petro state country. They sell

gas on the open market. So what the hell they doing at COP twenty nine. Well, they're demanding the right to be able to sell their products, their oil and gas around the globe. Why because it's just not fair that they should be subjected to limits on their production, because the rest of the world has been free to go ahead and do that all along, up until this most recent moments in time, when we started thinking that

our exhalation was causing the globe to kill itself. Her statement, and sorry, however, we cannot forget that the current climate situation of the world is the result of the industrial policies of a few developed countries. That would be you

and me. That's the United States, it's Europe, any developed like first world nation who has prospered mightily because of Well, maybe there's systems of government the free population that can pursue enterprise and pursue profits to their own benefit, you know, a system of government that encourages prosperity. That's our fault, pivoting over and developing states shall not be deprived of their right to development because of what others have done.

So here's your explanation. And you can put China in the group. I guess with Iran because they're not concidered yet a First World nation. They're allowed to pollute all day long. They can build coal plants, they can burn oil, they can sell the oil. They can pollute all day long. Why because well, they have not yet had a seat

at the First World table. So you and I and other First World countries will bear the brunt of cutting our own throats and taxing ourselves into submission and ruining our own economies in the name of global wealthy distribution. So the Iranians and the Chinese and mostly our other adversaries can thrive and develop their countries while polluting the globe and negating anything we have done in the name of preventing climate change. You following all this, what an

epic epic scam? Five twenty eight fifty five karste Detalk station. Feel free to call.

sex assigned at birth. Originally State represented of Adam byrd, we introduced the House Bill one eighty three. Legislation was slit into an uncontroversial and unrelated bill is an amendment at eleven PM during the last session before summer recess. Official birth record would be used to prove biological sex as long as the certificate was issued at or near the time of the individual's birth, saying that it wouldn't matter if a birth record is challenged to reflect the

individual's identity. Who would go through that hassle anyway? Bird representatives said the bills about public safeties. I understand that it's controversial, but it is an issue of protection for those people that are vulnerable. But they've been over backwards in this reporting to make it sound like a terrible thing that men can't go into the little girl's bathroom. How gas stations convenience stores couldn't sell delta delta ETHC products.

Onder new bill that lawmakers may pass before the end of the year. Hurry up and get it all done before the years over. Bill three twenty six here in Ohio, introduced by Senator Steve Huffman, would ban the sale of hemp derived products that are wildly popular. This after the twenty eighteen Farm Build legalized hemp. Under federal rules, hemp can't contain more than point three percent of delta nine THHC. That's the product or compound that gives you get you high.

But businesses, being enterprising, took advantage of the gaps in the law. They started selling Delta eight, which they refer to as and I don't know why, diet weed, described as a synthetic compound derived from CBD that gives users a mild high. Others found workarounds to sell Delta nine

edibles and THCHCA flour which becomes delta nine when it's heated. Now, as for Huffman's bill, it would enact an all out ban on gray market cannabis, not just sales the miners, and prohibit anything with more than point five milligrams of delta nine two milligrams of deltainine, so that was per serving two milligrams of deltaine per package, zero point five milligrams of tota or total non deltainine per package. Keeping track of this measure would not apply to industrial hem

products like fiber'cloth or CBD infused cosmetics. I'm sure somebody will figure a workaround to that one as well. Five point thirty five fifty five KRCD talk station.

So to the stupid we go. I've read these before. British women died after paying thousands of British pounds for a Brazilian butt lift surgery in the country of Turkey.

procedure to his wife. Missus Dowell thought to be one of six Brits who died in Turkey in twenty twenty three following botched medical procedures, Apparently the country popular with Brits for reducing prices on cosmetic surgery, though then the subject of warnings by United Kingdom health officials. D BBL involves increasing the size and shape of a person's butt by removing fat from one area of the body and transferring it to the buttocks. See I'm old enough to

remember when fat butts were a bad thing. Mister and Missus Dow arrived in Turkey October first last year. According to the inquest, she went under the knife at the BHT clinic and his tanbull the next day. Died around midnight on October third. Preliminary hearing into her death, they were untill told she suffered from an embolism, which can arise after a surgery caused the potentially fatal blood flow blockage. Mister Dawes said he and his wife carried out research

to find the clinic. He said, quote, we found this surgeon and had a clinic named after himself. He was one of the top five surgeons in Turkey. However, he told the coroner that she had only consented to two of the three operations she had, although he did not identify which one she had not agreed to. Details about

the procedure were not heard at the preliminary hearing. However, mister Dowray's concerns about his wife not having information provided to her quote there was not any risk outlined to her. Mister Dowell claimed, Hm, we would not have known the risks according to her daughter because she didn't consent to all three. One of the biggest concerns mister Dale expressed

is the change and the length of the operation. He said it should have been around six hour operation, but it wound down to one hour and forty five minutes. The surgeon left halfway through the operation and left the anesthetist to do the job. You can't do both at the same time, said, They asked me to sign the consent for him after she passed away. Mister Whittaker as our walker, also suggests that he will be writing a Prevention of Future Deaths report to help stop future tragedies occurring.

Full inquest to take place in January. I'm thinking, like, don't do that. Full of money are soon parted and learned that one in a wild Joe appreciate that the only thing that could have made that better. And I don't know anything about Turkish medicine. I'm just going to assume it's not up to the standards of American medicine. At least. The operation was described as taking place in a clinic because a lot of the stories I've read about that over the years where people have died as

a consequence of getting you know, butt injections or whatever. Uh, the operations take place in a motel six, which really works nicely in your phrasing comment there about butt injections, I was thinking the roofing cock, Joe, that kind of injection for people who weren't a bigger BUTTI fifty five Casi tuk station.

that neighborhood. Please call Around ten minutes till nine pm and five thousand block North Ashland Avenue encountered two cars with extensive damage. One of the drivers, identified as Samantha Steel, one of three commissioners selected to serve at a Cook County border review. She admitted officers that she drove her car into the other vehicle shortly after they arrived on the scene. Court to the incident report, officers then spotted an open bottle of red wine on the floor of

the passenger side of the car. Court to the report, it read, I observed her eyes were bloodshot and glassy I also detected a strong odor of alcoholic beverage coming from her breath as she spoke. Officers noted that Steel, representing District two, refused to take a sobriety test. When asked how much she had to drink, she told the officers quote, I want my lawyer and I'm not talking

to you. Steel then handcuffed, taking him to the area hospital, where she received treatment for the injuries she sustained during the crash. During her arrest, she reportedly said to the officer, is your penis that small?

there are a couple of working theories. Local authorities awaiting further information about the deceased identity the The spokesperson did, however, tell People magazine that he suspects the remains were an adult male, but they're awaiting confirmation.

Jay RATTLFF I heart media aviation Expert. Without further ado, CJ, thank you so much for holding over the brake there all I saw on the call screen was Cincinnati, and there was no name there. Joe and I are having a little difficult communication over our electronics this morning. No fault of yours, but I appreciate you holding and welcome to the program.

in two months. But my concern about the Matt Gates is this is that Donald Trump has a Mandy on the border, he has a Mandy on the foreign policy, and a lot of the garbage going on in the world.

got four years. He doesn't have a he can't he doesn't hold the power I can run for reelection over people. I just don't see it as a smart move From that standpoint, I get why he's putting Matt Gates in there. He is not going to pay attention to any sex scandal. Donald Trump will because he doesn't believe ninety percent of them, because of his own experience, But I just think it's just a bad fight to have when you have so many pressing issues and you cannot run for reelection.

this garbage that's going on in there. But the problem is going to be is is that if he wants to go into recess to get some of these nominations through, I don't know if he can go into recess now, because you already have Collins and Murkowski saying they will not do anything to get Matt Gates into the Attorney General. I would assume McConnell won't and Gates burned a lot of bridges with those fights in the House of Representatives.

That fight is just going to be ugly in the Senate, and it could bleed down into some of these others. Because I'm okay, I love the Hecktat nomination. I can live with the Toulci Gabbard one. I just don't understand the met Gates fight because he's going to take up a lot of energy on things that Trump want's done right away.

that divisive, I don't it remains to be seen. But yes, if you want to avoid controversy, probably the wrong guy, at least from the outside now some are suggesting he's going to engage in you know, law fair much in the way that a lawfair was waged against Donald Trump. I'd like to think that Donald Trump would not allow that to happen. But maybe that's me being overly optimistic. Is Donald Trump going to be a guy that's seeking revenge? Is he going to try to, you know, get back

at those who attacked him throughout his presidency? Do we even want that to happen? I certainly don't a lot of questions, though, appreciate the call. It's a very controversial moment in this nation's history, is it not. Let's see what Steve's got. Steve, welcome to the program, Thanks for calling this morning, and a happy Friday Eve to you.

in the butt to his fellow Republicans. I mean, he's so if we you know, if he is not confirmed, won't bother me. There'll be a second choice. But at used to get him out of the house. I mean because he resigned a seat in the House. But you know that's because.

I don't doubt for a second any room they were ever in when Trump walked in. He's loud, boisterous, and I'm sure it rubs on, you know, grates on their nerves and they think and they may both be much smarter.

and this is what I've heard from Blumenthal. He is so convinced he is smarter than Trump and can't believe that he has not succeeded as he has not become president. In other words, this is somebody that has has surpassed what I was able to do. And I know I'm smarter than he is. And I think that's the same thing with Napolitano. I think he is so convinced he is so much smarter than Donald Trump. Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. But again, that's one factor of what

makes him a human being. He doesn't command you know, the room the way Trump does when he walks into it. I think it grates on his nerves. This Department of Government efficiency, that's a moniker.

myself regularly. But I like him and welcome I'm a refreshing alternative thought process or change of pace, and that way, folks like you and I, Steve and the listening audience can talk about it and analyze it and try to figure it out for ourselves. But yeah, at least it allows me to bring back up that Doge point. Yes, cut the government period, end of story. You don't have to create a department to do it. Just start cutting. Thanks brother, I got a few callers online if you

don't mind bearing with me. It's six pot nineteen. Got to take a quick break and strong recommendation. Help you save money, and I mean significant amounts of money. It's affordable imaging services where you get medical imaging for a fraction of what the hospital imaging department will charge you MRI four ninety five, four hundred and ninety five bucks for a full MRI. Get a contrast at six hundred

and forty five bucks. Go on over call the hospital you've been scheduled for an MRI, ask them how much it's gonna cost, and tell them to tell you how much it's gonna cost after your insurance payment or is processed. I bet it's going to be more than the entire MRI with the board Certified Radiologist report. Yes, more than six hundred and forty five bucks. Get the whole thing for six hundred and forty five bucks. With a contrast at Affordable Imaging Services, No contrast, it's only four hundred

and ninety five bucks. CT scan no contrast four point fifty at a contrast six hundred that could set you five thousand dollars back at a hospital imaging department. They listen, they make a lot of profit at the imaging department. Look at all the overhead, Look at all the air conditioning they got to deal with. Look at all the space at the hospital. All that has to be paid for. Let me tell you, Affordable Imaging Services overhead is very

very low. The equipment's the same, the professionals operating and have been doing this for more than forty years. Every image comes with the certified board, certified Radiologist report. You get a separate bill for that when you go to the hospital, So don't do that. Find out ahead of time how much it's going to cost you out of your pocket, and then check it out the prices at Affordable Imaging Services, and I feel pretty strongly you're going to go for the ladder.

pricing and everything else. Go to Affordable Medimaging dot com. Affordable medimaging dot com. Yes you can go there. That you have a choice when it comes to your medical care.

all the way down to the bottom. Really, we haven't won a war in fifty years, at least seventy years, you know, really since World War Two, we haven't really won anything. So that's my thoughts on that. The other

one is, I take this appointment of Matt Gates. While I appreciate Matt Gates because he brings up a lot of good points, I think he has such ill will amongst the Republicans whenever he shoots his mouth off and he does actions such as the impeachment of the House President, I think that's just going to be more of a distraction, cause upset in the Republicans and we're going to wind up fighting that for three months and get nowhere.

And as far as the military is concerned, just one area of government, all areas of government could do a top down, thorough scrubbing and cleansing of the nastiness that exists in literally the four corners of all governments. So it just doesn't exist in the military. But I'll be the first person as big of a fan as I am of American military to point out there is a boatload of fraud, waste, and abuse and

Fill it with the highest R value foam in the market. And if you have a new er home anything after the mid seventies, USA can inspect the exterior walls and find out what you've got in there which may be insufficient.

a crapshoot. We'll have to wait through another election to find out.

So we at least that we can thoroughly agree on. The thing is, you're right about Gates, but you're also half the factor into the equation. Much like the midterm elections may hand the House over to the Democrats of America? Is that dumb to go that route? In a couple of years, Matt Gates still has his detractors, and he still has people who really do not like him, and those are people within his own party. He's got to withstand support and he has to be well voted on.

So is it better to vote with someone who does and come with the baggage in spite of the fact that he will hit the ground running and with his nose to the grindstone. I think there are other people who could fill that role. Maybe not to your level of satisfaction, but don't throw out the good looking for the perfect. And I wouldn't say Matt Gates is perfect either.

But in so far as any one of these folks that steps out of their role as an elected official in the Senate or in the House, they're going to have to be replaced by somebody. And of course, in so far as Jade Vance's concern, we're still waiting around, as Bobby pointed out, for Mike Dwine to make a decision on that one. It's apparently rest in Dwine's hands. And I don't know if that differs from state to state.

I'll be quite honest with you on that. We dwell or I may be, but in terms of the minutia, in terms of you know, like some people ask me, like, can you recall fill in the blank? Yeah, I don't know which state you're talking about, which office you're talking about. It all depends on a variety of things. And I don't purport to have all the answers to all the questions. But you know what, I know, a simple internet search would probably answer literally every question that we all have.

So if you find out and give me a call, let me know. In terms of cutting real quick, here the New York Post that I was looking at. They because this office, which I'm excited about, and it's not really a cabinet, and say, this is one of the things. This is the point of contention. Got to do with the pol Atana the other day, because oh, we shouldn't even have these thes are not part of the gut Listen, just say park Elon Musk and Viva Gramaswamy in a room.

Department of government efficiency doesn't have to be a formalized funded department. These guys are multi billionaires and millionaires. They don't need any extra money anyway, so they probably do the job without being paid. But let them start cutting. Put them in an office. Let them start cutting. They got empty offices. You don't even have to pay for

extra new space. Let them start cutting. Excuse me, cough Futton. Anyway, your posts identified quite a few things, and the neat thing about when they announced this Department of Government Efficiency, they said they would have the opportunity for us to give them ideas about where to cut, and to the extent they announced something that they are planning on cutting, that we would be able to react to it in

a positive or negative way, So open door policy. Federal government spent one point three billion dollars in checks on dead people from the IRS one calendar year twenty twenty three, medicare as well as assorted veteran groups. There's one point three billion dollars in savings. All you need to do is cross check the payments. The Treasury Department as a do not pay list. Everyone should be on it, and it should be shared across all layers of government. They

don't share the information. Easy fix. You probably put artificial intelligence behind that one and not even have a position for that role. Prisoners thought to still be free and out of work got one hundred and seventy one million in unemployment payments from Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. They also sent one hundred and one billion in improper payments

Thirty three million dollars given to a firm which runs Monkey Island, three thousand monkeys sent to do for research lab. They grant a three point seven million to fund a study on monkeys and gambling. Part of the twelve million dollars went to the University of University of Mississippi to

test monkeys on meth amphetamine. Florida Lab received half a million dollars a little less than to help fund research on transgender monkeys, and you listen to this and you think, you know, there's no way. There's no way, Yeah, there is. Our government's gotten so big that we are willing to throw a half a million dollars at alleged transgender monkey research.

end of the fiscal year. Treasury Department said October deficit up two hundred and eighty seven percent from the sixty seven billion dollar deficit it was in October twenty three. Do you think we're having a spending problem here in this country? And when you look at that kind of hole we've already dug ourselves and the debt service we're paying on the money we've already borrowed and must pay

debt service on. Going back to transgender money key research, that one person in my listening audience maybe that thinks that's a good idea, right, Sure it is. Every little bit counts, so let's start cutting every little bit we can.

percent this calendar year. And I was scratching my head over that one, because I know there have already been more youth involved incidents at the various transit centers which seemed to be a magnet for these young punk kids, and crimes more this year so far than the entire calendar year last year. So you tell my listeners, where are we in terms of crime generally speaking, in youth crime specifically.

the time. But instance that police department, if you have an interim everything's going to be status quo into a permanent person's named.

simple solution, simple fix. It doesn't require a permanent position to do it, just requids someone with the willpower to start implementing it and figuring out how to pay for it right now.

our neighborhoods safe. But the bubble seem to have gotten burst in so far as law and law enforcement's morale. When you have a revolving door of crime and you don't get rewarded by seeing the purp that you busted your hump chasing down on the streets see justice, you're less inclined to maybe arrest them or report a crime. Is that still kind of a concept going on? Because I keep reading that, well, violent crimes down, this gets down,

and it's down. It could be down simply because nobody's reporting crimes that happen.

because they don't want to waste their time. They don't want to go down to court, you know, and and spend two or three different appearances down there. For some defendant to maybe show up, maybe not show up, and then ultimately when the case comes to a conclusion, they

get nothing out of it. So I think, honestly, there's some citizens you know that are victims of crime that are fed up with the justice system and saying nothing's going to happen to these people, So you know, the heck with him, I'm not even gonna bother reporting.

tough on crime prosecutor any longer. That, coupled with a lot of the woke judges we have, which we know are very very soft on crime, have any perception of whether this is going to get worse before it gets better.

we work with the prosecutor's office. To your point, you know, if things are trending to where we are going to just be soft on crime, it is certainly going to make a huge impact. But I think it's one of those things where I think we are best to just wait and see. You know, Connie's really an unknown.

And then how about leaning on some of these woke judges and telling them, listen that those days are over. We are not doing ourselves any service by letting people who are violent and have committed you know, multiple crimes in the community out on no bond or with very light sentences. I think that's a that's an easy ask ka Connie Billich whether the judges will listen to her. But she's got to have more pull with the woke judges than a Melissa Powers would have.

squander it by bickering and complaining and fighting. Let's get the nose to the grindstone to start cutting and cutting and cutting and cutting. It's one thing I have at least a measure of optimism. For God knows what's gonna happen with the war in Ukraine. I don't think Donald Trump's capable of laying hands on it and just ending it.

Even though apparently funding may be cut off now with the a new administration, I yet sworn in Democrats obviously for more funding for Ukraine as are summer Republicans, but the likelihood of more going over less of a possibility,

at least at this moment in time. Back over to New York post lease in terms of areas where you can certainly cut I mentioned a handful of these before, but in the remaining moments of the segments, UH, take away the guns and the ammunition from the Environmental Protection Agency. I wouldn't have any problem with that. Apparently six hundred and twenty thousand dollars spent on guns and AMMO, bulletproof armor, night vision equipment, military grade weapons. Why would the EPA

need any of that? We give money to China. Fifty eight point seven million dollars given to China between twenty seventeen to twenty two for things like one one hundred grand to promote gender equality through the use of New Yorker magazine cartoons. I would love to say, you can't make this stuff up, but this is the kind of thing that you would make up. But this is real. National Endowment for Humanity spends apparently one hundreds of thousand dollars annually on what they are calling a New York

post of obscure studies. January twenty twenty four grant three hundred and fifty thousand dollars to research and write books on Are you ready the history of Muslim Chinese encounters in Asia from the thirteen sixties to the sixteen forties?

this crap. There's someone out there that knows somebody inside government and just says, hey, man, I want to do a book on the Chinese and the Mongolian relations in this one small decade of time three hundred years ago. Can you score me a grant?

Probably is one of the very few people who you could say, if you had to guess, would never ever ever ever abide by that or take that kind of stuff or direct taxpayer money to stupid, stupid programs.

Yeah, I did have to replace the batteries in my remote control, and I know how silly it sounds, but either the

remote control gas fireplace is really awesome. I just love it to death. You can adjust the flames, like two different types of flames in there. You can have them both going for a roaring fire, a small little fire. You got lights in there. It just it looks beautiful. It all looks very, very real, which would take the fun out of it. Didn't look real. But that was the insert I got when I replaced the old one after the inspection revealed that I might burn my house

down if I used the old fireplace. Yeah, build a special. It was not vented properly and heat was trapped, and obviously a roaring fire and a fireplace generates a whole lot of heat, and I guess enough so that it could have caught the wood framing behind it on fire. Bottom line is it went out, replaced the whole winding, got a brand new firebox and the gorgeous, gorgeous architectural beauty of that and just melds right within the look of our living room. So that happened quite a few

years ago. But last night, press the button, there's a fire.

Are you working on that at Americans for Prosperity.

the nation. It's one of the main priorities we have is we're having initial conversations with incoming lawmakers here in the state of Ohio about what they need to make a priority of in the first six months of twenty twenty five.

rid of the income tax. And so our challenge really are it's really comes through the voice of our activists, right, the citizens who elected these folks that we bring to the state House to remind folks that, hey, despite all these nice things you want to do with my taxpayer dollars, maybe we need to keep that focused on just a

few key critical government functions. And then if we do that, we can actually put the rest of that money back that you've been collecting since the seventies through our paychecks, back in the pockets of the hard working Higlands who pay these bills and ultimately achieve the mission of the limping names from tax But it just comes down to reminded, folks, you can't do everything for everybody. You really got a

priority we need. You need leadership that's going to prioritize what the thing is spending its money on.

show for it. Maybe you should start looking inward and relying on your local community and quit sending taxpayer dollars to Columbus because we're not going to fix it.

What about like pulling back regulations or real and back red tape so that you can empower the folks close to that problem to be able to solve it. Right, And one way to do it is not take money out of their pockets through taxation, so that you can redistribute that welfare on the state. Right, Let's keep it in the hands of the folks who know best how

to utilize it and the closest to the problems. And let's if there's a red tape regulation barrier that exists, let's go be a champion, a warrior to remove that so they can go out and do the good things in the community they want to do it. It's bottom up solutions, it's local governance that it's back.

for their children. And those folks are going to be coming after the money that's been allocated in the you know, in the state budget this passed by Anium for these these universal school choice program we have now in the state of Ohio, and so we're need to remain vigilant on defending that. But then also I think working to

lower the barriers. There's still an income threshold that exists, there's some administrative bureaucracy that makes it challenging for schools to be able to access those dollars in a timely

manner to fund their operations. And so I think there's a lot of defensive need here right now to make sure we retain the programs we have, but then also some opportunities to move forward in terms of raining bringing down some of the red tape, because that's what government's best that bright, it's just creating it might it might open up one opportunity, but to create three or four

more challenges as it goes. And so I think that's where we're going to continue to continue to work to make sure we keep the UH, we keep it easy for families toil to access when they need.

one of the things we're going to be doing. I think we'll see that as a major priority for our chapter and what we do next year, not just because energy prices remain high, but because we have to remain vigilant against a utility dominated paradigm right now. We need to make it a consumer dominated paradigm where we'll focused on making sure energy is affordable and abundant and reliable

here in the state of Ohio. And I think that's going to be a really exciting area to be working in going into twenty twenty five.

and the team, Donovan. You and I will be talking again, and good luck working forward with the remaining opportunity you have under the current electrical the current administration in Columbus.

Man if you're s seven forty four, are here fifty five kre CD talk station right time I was happy to welcome to a fifty five KRC morning show a subject matter near and dear to my heart for all the wrong reasons. Alzheimer's sucks, and no one knows more about that than Jackie Williams. She's a program manager for

the Greatest SINCINNTI Chapter of Alzheimer's Association. Before being joining the Association, she served as a volunteer for close to ten years, helping to educate those in the community regarding challenges individuals face with living with dementia. She was her mother's full time caregiver when she was in the later stages of dementia, with hands on experience, her passion to continue her work and serving this population letter to join

the staff at the Alzheimer's Association. Welcome Jackie Williams. Let me start by thanking you for your hard work with the Alzheimer's Association. My father struggled with Alzheimer's dementia and ultimately lost his life as a consequence, and my mom was his primary caregiver and oh my god, you know as well as anybody it takes a huge toll on the family and most notably the primary caregiver. Welcome to the program.

note the numbers. I've been looking at the numbers that, yeah, I have in front of me, six point seven million Americans and to county or twenty twenty three, one in nine aged sixty five or order are living with Alzheimer's. These numbers just keep going up. Is there any do we know anything about where it comes from or why the numbers increase every year.

We still do not have a cure, We still do not have a prevention, but every day those research projects are getting us closer and closer to getting us to what our mission is, a world without Alzheimer's and all other dementia. So, as an association, while we are Alzheimer's Association, we do care and support individuals who have a form of dementia that may not be Alzheimer's.

ten Warning Signs of Alzheimer's. What is the the Is there a first leading indicator that might be a red flag that people might want to start paying attention to, or is it just vary from person to person.

or trying to figure out, like what was that? And oftentimes I'll hear people, just probably jokingly but maybe not say, oh boy, I must be getting to Alzheimer's or I must be getting dementia. Yeah, And that may not necessarily be the case. It could be a tribute to something else. You know, stress can manifest in terms of like all of a sudden, you know, your cognitive abilities in your thinking process might be hindered by stress. So it may

be that or it just may be normal aging. And there is a difference between the things that we experience as normal aging and what could be what i'll call crossing the line and not necessarily normal aging that we would encourage individuals to go and get checked and make sure that they're working with their physicians to just evaluate and monitor and try to get any type of an early diagnosis, because that's where the most successes in finding

treatment and being able to have a more impactful journey through this disease.

getting old. I don't I don't need anything. I don't I don't need to address that, And so oftentimes tracking and recognizing and encouraging somebody to go and get further assessment.

And if you're lucky enough like I was to be able to attend those doctor's appointments, my mom, I kept a lot of notes in terms of like, here are the changes I'm seeing, and when it's happening, and why it might be happening and whatnot, and that helps the physicians know that, yep, this is a little bit more than what normal aging might be.

not you have Alzheimer's. But the great news is we are getting really close in our research to a point where we might find a day and we're really close to it where you can get the diagnosis through a biomarker blood test, and being able to do that makes it so much more available to individuals who might have cost prohibitations to really paying for some of those tests, right, but also in some of our rural areas where they don't have access to some of those things, and making

sure that we're getting them diagnosed as well.

here within the last couple of years. So we are working with the public health policies and hospitals and insurance companies to make sure that we are allowing good, ample accessibility to those treatments and making sure that we can get those individuals in the loop and being treated.

But I thought to myself this morning, even said it on the program, Well, Thomas Massey's the kind of guy that if he was Secretary of agric Culture, he would do everything in his power to whittle away the Agriculture Department of virtually nothing and maybe even eliminate it, so he would be out a job. He's the kind

And I think there are things that we could do to strengthen our agriculture industry, and that includes big companies, but we need to create a parallel path for small farmers and for consumers because these these are part of the coalition that helped Trump get elected, particularly in Pennsylvania where you know you had Amos Miller being prosecuted for trying to sell raw milk and meat to directly. Well, the problem is we don't have that

alternate path right now in the agriculture sector. And you know, the USDA is has been captive to the big corporations and somebody needs to be there to create this parallel path for healthy food that's not you know, grown the way everything else has grown. We need a way to get food that's not you know, ultra ultra processed, and

that that would be my approach to it. Create this off ramp, this parallel path for those folks, and make sure that we are still the strongest agricultural producer in the world.

that is, we are exhaling our way to devastation. I don't buy it, and I view it as a mechanism to simply liberate money from the very wealthy countries of the world and offload that via the claims of climate alarmism to third world countries who haven't really, you know, passed the test of economic mustard.

happened to the carbon? Right, you've got a carbon dioxide molecule. It doesn't just turn into an oxygen molecule. The carbon goes somewhere. Where does it go through? Yeah, it's it's the gluclose that becomes other forms of sugar and carbohydrates. They're called carbohydrates for a reason. Right, there's water and carbon involved. And people forget that all of the carbon that you end up eating it came originated, not in the ground, but.

seventeen days. We should put at least a dozen bills on Trump's desk that are ready to sign when he sits down.

It's something that would then be in law, and it would be forever until, for instance, the Democrats got control of both chambers and the Presidency in order to reverse it.

you don't need to make it apartment. These have two guys with a pair of scissors just starting to cut the fat out of it. But it's an unlimited amount of fat they can cut out. Do you think it will be effective? Do you think they can actually get something accomplished by what way of pairing down the size and scope of government?

stealing power from the past and your behind her. And look, I'm not sure if this entitled person had permission or not from the person behind her, or if she just took it anyway, But I mean, the picture of the deed has gone viral with more than a few unkind comments, and I'm thinking, Okay, I wake up from an app and I see the person in front of me as reached behind and stuck their power thing in my.

other people's space. And you know, it's one thing to kindly ask and that's fine, but it's another thing just to take it on your own to do it like you're entitled to the whole row, or not only your row, but the one in front of you, behind you.

it out with Oakland. What's the story on this one?

the good news is Oakland is getting more passengers. The bad news is some of them weren't going there.

going through them, significant size, quite telling, quite horrific. But the issue here is, you know, we have probably four or five flights today that were going into Haiti on a daily basis, with Jeff Blue and Spirit and others.

But Brian back in early September, the State Department on their very useful website, and I'm being totally sincere here, they have travel advisories to places around the world, and when it came to Haiti, they were recommending not to travel there because Americans were seeing an increased number of assaults, robberies, kidnapping for ransom, and they added this little bit at the end the airport could be a focal point for armed activity. Yeah, now this is early September, so now

the airline's anywhere? Well it is, And you know, Sherry flew down there after the earthquake and helped with you know a lot of some things with the kids and different things for a week, and I was worried when she went. But you know, since then, it's only gotten worse. And you know, now you have a situation where a flight attendant was slightly injured. I don't know if it

was by the gunfire or the evasive action. But you're also thinking, okay, how many people are going to sue Spirit Airlines because it's obvious that the State Department said not a good idea to go there, you decided to go there anyways, the you know, the the ad is in early September from the US government said armed focal point. You know, armed activity? Is that going to be something you know people can sue over the day of the week.

So I suspect that this is going to be interesting for Spirit, who's having a rough week anyways, because they're about to file for bankruptcy and their stock has dropped like sixty percent this week. Yeah, please don't buy it, by the way, And it's going to be interesting to see how things go. Now the FAA has stepped in and said no US carriers flying two Haiti for the next thirty days, as we kind of see if any of this is going to calm down, and I suspect

it won't. And another good discussion on this front is how many times have you and I talked about the people that say they want a totally automated flight deck. Tell me what that computer would do if it's getting shot at. I don't know if that would be part of the programmed response or not. And knowing a lot of these men and women in the cockpit are former military, some of which you have been shot at before. Yeah,

that's the experience I won on the flight deck. If we encountered this kind of situation flying anywhere.

So don't let that prevent you from making future reservations or being overly worried about upcoming reservations, because they will continue businesses as normal as they can. What really sent them off the edge this week, Brian, was they were having problem raising money and they went back to Frontier to see if maybe they could rekindle those merger talks. Remember it was the two of them a couple of

years ago that we're going to get together. I really liked Frontier Spirit merging, and Jet Blue kind of pushed in as the new suitor offering more money, and Frontier was kind of shoved to the side like a jilted lover, so to speak.

we've had a great career here. I'm going to take an early retirement so the people behind me can enjoy what I had. So even through the pandemic, they had never laid a single person off. Now they're a point where the Boeing aircraft delays have really impacted them, and they've seen the service at certain airports shrink just a bit. I think Cleveland's being impacted by this as well, a

lot in Atlanta and a bunch of other airports. Nothing at Cincinnati right now, and they're being forced to offer these early retirement packages, the voluntary separations to people to see if enough people will take advantage of it, ending their work the end of next month, December thirty first,

so they won't have to lay anyone off. If they don't get enough people stepping forward, well, then Southwest is going to be forced to do what most other airlines have and the first time in their history as far as actually laying off some of their employees. And this is just a sign of the Boeing situation. A plus, Southwest has been slow to adapt as far as offering the premium seats and now the assigned seats and the idea of baby charging for check bags. They're going to

have to do all of these things moving forward. So they're a little slow in responding, but at least they're pointed in the right direction.

looks great. The problem is that weather that we have, and it's moving towards the east and causing a lot of travel disruptions.
