55KRC Tuesday Show - Dr Ridgley, Empower U, Breitbart, Deep Dive

Ridgley with his book Dee I exposed about that. That's perfect timings considering the actions by the cincinn Public Schools UH refusing to sign on to try administration demand to dismantle DEI in the Cincinni Public Schools among other public schools nationwide. Get to that shortly here, But DEI expose putting the spotlight on the big con of diversity, equity and inclusion, and it is a scam. What else is coming up? In power Youse? Seminar Jude Kessler Birth of

the Beatles? How about that? How the Beatles became a band? And when I saw that on the rundown, it was like, isn't it strange twenty twenty five. We're still talking about the Beatles. Obviously a profoundly influential band, no question about that. I cannot deny it. In I like the Beatles well enough, I suppose. Anyway, what else is coming up in the Five Jersey Morning Show. It is Tuesday, so we do the inside scoop today, Brightbart News immigration expert Neil Monroe.

We'll talk about the new executive order ensuring truck drivers speak English, as well as border security and Donald Trump's enjoying at least he's got some I know was his numbers of drop, but he is enjoying some high favorability rate for the crackdown on the border and his deportation policies.

Something else we can get to here. And Daniel Davis deep Die with the latest on Russia and Ukraine, and apparently Trump's hard working, working hard with trying to get Zelensky to sit down or at least agree to some kind of peace deal with Vladimir Putin. Putin putting a strike, a pause in the in the war for three days or something like that. It's kind of like the Easter pause. We'll do a ceasefire for three days. And I'm not sure if it's in order to get the ducks in

a row. Maybe to sit down and talk a little bit more about negotiating resolution. Looks like Crimea is now in the hands of Russia permanently, at least from all things I've been able to read. It's obviously a constant state of flux. Just be nice to have that war over. Yeah, Russia declared a three day ceasefire in Ukraine for the World War two victory Day. All right, you could probably just declare it sees fire because it's the day ending, and why if you need a justification for it, may

as well be the end of World War two. Let us see that. Also, Irani shield coming on are ask the expert. We'll talk about that. Figure out why that's a great product. If you feel like Colin, feel free

to do so. Five and thirty seven four nine fifty five hundred eight hundred eight two three talk pound five fifty on AT and T Funds, speaking of doctor Stanley Riginally, this book de I exposed since our public schools will not sign a letter from the Trump administration asking school districts to eliminate diversity, equity inclusion policy initiatives and k through twelve schools, just so you know where your kids

are going and what they're up to. So apparently, the recently Department of Education sent letters to education organizations local districts to get them to certify that they will comply with the Trump administration's interpretations of civil rights law, and not complying could cost the district's federal funding. There's your threat. Remember, for all those who advocate federal funding as a means of altering state behavior, here you go, new times, new administration.

Federal dollars come with strings attached. I don't like it, You don't like it. Just depends on whose ox is getting gored. Well, how about not attaching strings to federal dollars When it comes back to the states, who's center to the federal government in the first place? Anyway, According to the Department of Oppressed Release, federal financial assistance is a privilege, not right. When state education commissioners accept federal funds,

they agree to abide by federal anti discrimination requirements. Right and as far as since I public schools are concerned. According to Policy Matters Ohio, it would represent a twenty two percent funding loss from its budget. Can they deal without that money?

Since a public Schools is well aware of its legal obligations under Title six of the Civil Rights Act in nineteen sixty four and the constitution and laws of the United States and state of Ohio. So since our public schools follows the law and will continue to follow the law. That a statement from board President Kareem Moffatt, who went on to say the district's policies, programs, and activities do not discriminate against students on the basis of race or

any other protective characteristics. CPS did not sign the letter because the district policies and programs are supportive and welcoming to all students. Okay, you don't discriminate, and I guess the trouble administration and its interpretation of the Title six if you're in if you have DEI programs, then you are discriminating. I think that's that whole merit versus equity kind of argument. Have you demonstrated merit? Are you able to pass the subject matter? Are you able to advance

to the next grade. Well, a lot of school districts don't give a rip about that, and they will take in factors such as race and you know, socioeconomic disparities in order to advance students and be on the grounds

that well, it's unfair to hold them back. I guess I don't know why else you would advance a child who hasn't learned the subject matter or can't demonstrate competence in any particular area of the subject matter, that you would allow them to move forward to the next grade or give them a passing grade when they can't pass the test. Someone give me an argument as to why that's appropriate. I mean, the further you move along under

that system, the further you fall behind. It's like, you gotta go take algebra one before you can go take algebra two. Why Because algebra two deals with the continuation of the building blocks of the subject matter you learned in algebra one. I mean, if I miss something on this, we live in a crazy world, but any of that. One CPS parent, Katie Elliott, was speaking with WCPO about this, and I thought this was a rather unusual statement. She said, I think the letter apparently is out of touch. I

think it's out of touch. She has two children who attend Pleasant Risk Montissori. She said, she's aware of the financial risk of district my face, but hope CPS stands by its decision. So it makes me sad that the leaders of our nation think that that's the solution. If you're gonna be moan in the performance of public schools and then threaten to take away their funding, a lot of institutions that I thought wouldn't have caved have been caving. No,

it's not about the performance of the public schools. It's what they're teaching in the public schools and DEI policies and initiatives. I guess I definitely have a relationship to the performance of public schools. But I think another fundamental underlying layer on all this is that these schools are spending too much time dealing with social justice and activism versus you know, spending time teaching core subject matters my

perception anyway. Anyway, she said she hopes people with deep enough pockets can step in to fill the gap from federal funding. Joe, are you gonna make a donation and contribution to funded since a public schools if they lose federal funding? Never? I don't know how deep Joe's pockets are, but I can see that being the reaction from the vast majority of folks. Are you kidding me? Have you seen my property tax bill? Hell? Already fund enough money

enough of the school districts of expenditures and needs. I'm not going to write an additional check to cover the gap from their refusal to sign on to this administration strings attached obligation. Well, go ahead and make a stand. May come with significant consequences anyway. Oh and by the way, Kentucky, sorry, I know you asked for an extension on the real ID deadline, but they're not going to give it to you. The Trump administration said there will need be no real

ID exceptions. Now need a real ID. It's May seventh is the deadline to get one. Are you not going to be able to fly unless you have a passport or a military ID? So beginning May seventh, passengers will need real IDEA or another acceptable form of identification according to the TSA again, passport military idea or real ID. Transportation Secretary Administration TSA spoke this person said, non compliant passengers may expect wait times or additional measures at airports.

If you're an illegal alien without a real IDEA. The only way you'll be able to permit the flies if you're self deporting. So they made an exception for illegal immigrants in our country so they can get on a

plane and go back home. Kentucky lawmakers and Kentucky's Transportation Committee Chair Jimmy Hignan and twenty seven other Senate leaders sent I led at Homeland Security Secretary of Christy Nome asking for an extension because they have concerns among Kentuckians who are still unable to access drivers licensing services due to limited appointment availability and long lines for walkins. Now, real ID got implemented by the Bush administration, and it's

been kicked down the road quite a few times. But isn't this I don't want to be critical with my friends in the Commonwealth, but aren't they asking for an extension Because Kentucky's Bureau motor vehicles. I guess which processes these licenses aren't operating efficients efficiently. Kentuckians who are still unable to access drivers licensing services due to limited appointment availability and long lines for walkings. That would be at the Bureau motor Vehicles, which are run by the state.

So maybe you need to oil up the machine at the bureaum Motor Vehicles or DMV or whatever they call it in Kentucky. Anyway, one of the Higden that's going back to his day and the simple requests to protect Kentuckians from bureaucratic burdens. Rural residents, seniors and families still have hurdles in front of them, and a lot of the cases may not be aware of their options. Said, only about forty percent of our residents have a real ID, But I would like more time to keep Kentuckians understand

that they may not need a real ID. Kentucky has made a good faith effort, but we just aren't there yet. Well, no, says the Trump administration. So I don't get the issue. I know a lot of people don't like the real ID generally and conceptually speaking, but it is long on the books. They've already told you the deadline was coming. You had like years to prepare for the deadline and get the information out to your citizens and act responsibly as an elected official and say, hey, like it or not.

If you plan on flying, you're gonna need one of these things. So it's in play. Five seventeen fifty five krs to the talk station five one, three, seven, four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three talk pound five fifty on eight and t funds. But for to give me a coll you got something on your mind, particular subject matter.

showers of the storm after six pm. Seventy four overnight scattered storms sixty two for the low, and then it'll stay warm on Thursday, highest seventy nine quote, storms still lurking and thunderstorms in them hours seventy one degrees right now if you bought kearseity talk station. It's amazing how the weather forecast changes by the minute, right, Joe, yesterday, We're gonna have rain NonStop from six pm today through the rest of the week. I know your opinion on weathers.

It's the safest mind. Yeah, not to this nine. I don't think anybody ever has it down one hundred percent. Ever, it's like reading tea leaves. Just don't put your you know this. You know they say online gambling for the weather, you like, lay odds on whether the forecasters will get it right, you know, put it. Make it as a component of sports betting, you know, like weather betting the house will win five one, three, seven, eight two three.

met a man I didn't like. I didn't walk up to someone and immediately say I don't like you before you get a chance to meet him. Once you meet him, then you can make an informed determination of whether you like him or not.

need some of this. Well yeah, you get large loses his personal meanings and it just get out there as an economic gain. So it's like sucking off and I'm using, Hey, that's for his cab to come there. But if a goat come there and all other kind of animals come there and.

a different you're using your choices of words. Okay, okay, okay, I got you.

being hired for. They're the best candidate. Black, white, Asian, doesn't matter. That's the person you're supposed to hire because they're the best qualified for the job. When DEI kicks in, it's like, no, no, no, no, there's not enough of this particular color person or this particular type of person. I don't see any LGBTQ members in the mix of people working for the company you need to hire that person because they fill in a check box for a

certain category. The DEI thinks that we need mixed into the situation, whether it's teachers or corporate positions or whatever. That is getting rid of the concept of merit in favor of well, something that many perceive to be unfair and in some cases racist. You're hiring someone because of the color of their skin rather than their merit, their ability,

their competence for the particular position. That's the point about DEI, and I think that's why a lot of people rejected, and a lot of people within the you know, the black community, I mean, considering it's quite often we're talking

about minorities here. They too, people who have earned their positions out of merit are worried that someone is going to look at them and say, well, you're a diversity higher and I've heard that you know you're a diversity higher that what that is saying is you don't deserve the job, You aren't the best candidate for it. You got it because of the color of your skin, which is bad for everybody.

into the exact same argument. Yes, that's wrong. Now if the person is the best possible person for the job, like if you grew up, if you're the son of the owner of the company, and you've worked at that company your entire life, your knowledgeable skill and you can manage it, and you're in a good position to be the person in charge, then it's not a nepotism Higer, It's a competence hire. You've demonstrated merit and ability. So not all cases where you have a relationship hire is

it nepotism. But in cases of true nepotism, are they're only being hired because of the connection with the hiring person, then you're right, same thing. That's why I am you know why. That's where my position on DEI comes from, but falls into the same category, James, I really believe that, and watch your language, my friend, You're always welcome to call the morning show. I like your position at the outset. Take care. It's five twenty eight fifty five care see

I enjoyed our conversation. Coring Township mom said she is scared after somebody fired bullets that just hit under her bedroom window while she was sleeping there with her nine year old daughter. Police responded to shots fired in the area of Stadium Drive and Deshler Drive around eleven thirty pm on Sunday. According to the incident report, officers recovered shellcasing from the area and one home was struck by gunfire.

Vehicle at a neighboring residence also struck. Spoke from for the township Helen Tracy Nora and speaking with Fox nineteen, said we did have a shooting around the time last night. There were no injuries. It's an active investigation, so it's too soon to tell if the house was targeted. Kashia Phillips that she called nine one one when they woke up to the gunshots in and around their home. A bullet came through my front door and hit my living room wall. She said.

Fifteen year old boy charged with murdering a twenty five year old man in Coryville could face charges as an adult. Hemion County Prosecuter County Pillage.

Talking with WCPOS, she said, so it starts with my office requesting the bind over and then the judge having a brief hearing and then having an investigation to a lot of different aspects of the child's record as well as their behavior. Could take about forty five days to go through the process. Teen facing charges in adult court, something the family of Kylie Merrick called for back in

April thirteenth. Merk's sister Katie, even though this kid is fifteen years old, he needs to be charged an adult. You know why he was sitting outside a liquor store as an adult. He had a gun as an adult, So why isn't he charge as an adult? I agree, Lee, Prosecutor Hamlin County, speaking tough WCPOS that the case meets the criteria for potentially charging the suspect as an adult. Billige explained the charges against the teenager where one of

the criteria for her office requests of the judge. Court documents show the charges from April twelfth shooting against the team include murder and aggravated murder, which Pillage described as heinous crimes. Well, yeah, that's an easy statement. Get your popcorn out, dear, just as well until they get in

the court room. Oh you think she's not gonna stick with that this path, Joe, you think he's gonna go light Ah, the judge, Yeah, there is the need for the judge in the situation, and you may very well be right for the front of judge Silberstein or Silverstein.

Girl's father told deputies he woke up when he heard noises coming from the daughter's bedroom, walked into the room and found the man lying naked

on the floor. Girl's father told the suspect he was calling police and then went downstairs and got a handgun. That sounds like something I do. Ridgards Major Ridgells said The suspect ran out the front door, and the girl's father followed him, firing three shots into the ground. Deputy found a vehicle park on the sidewalk nearbyy with nobody inside. Victims father positively identified the suspect after he was shown a picture from a driver's license which was attached to

New York Police put out an image of the suspect on the train before and the rest was made. Not immediately clear what led to Gonzalez's death,

Plenty to talk about in the seven o'clock hour, including peak peak heads, f Pete heads, av interesting crackdown on obesity.

When you hear the statistics on the condition of America's military, I think you'll probably be a bit concern, as was I. But there's a whole lot more going on the six o'clock hour, plus I'd love to hear from you, so feel free to call. Be right back, covering Trump's first one hundred days.

Inside Scoop with Bright Bar News. It is Tuesday. Would do that every Tuesday eighty five. Today, immigration expert Neil Monroe will talk about the new executive order ensuring truck drivers speak English, as well as border security, and it's just looking at the statistics. I don't care where you are in border security, but it's like Donald Trump just

flipped a switch and things magically changed. It was some border official that worked under six different presidential administrations and said this was this was so intentional, considering that even you know, Barack Obama took a lot of steps and efforts to eat deport folks as well as keep the border somewhat measurably secure. Joe Biden, I guess in a moment of sleepiness, someone using the executive Panda in his absence making a decision to open the borders, not enforced

border security. So definitely an intentional act when you had, you know, a couple of quarter of a million people coming in over a month, and then it's trickled down to I think maybe you're looking at like ten thousand a month now. So obviously Trump's efforts on the border have just been absolutely amazing, and you didn't need a congressional action on that. Of course, you can't wait around

for Congress to pretty much do anything. Inside Scoop of Bright Barton is at eight oh five Daniel Davis Deep Dive. We'll get the latest from retired Lieutenant Colonel Davis on Russia Ukraine situation, Will there ever be peace? And Rhino Shield's going to join the program at the end for

Dustin Dunbar joined the program yesterday his book You're Doing Great and Otherwise Alcohol

Told Me, which allows me to pivot. It was obviously about the problems in the toxicity of alcoholics, connection with cancer and real nice and the book actually is light, it's not heavy reading. So maybe offering alternative solution to something like AA I think is his idea. But it's his done personal story and what he did overcome challenges of alcohol addiction. Pivoting over to the health of Americans

generally and specifically in our military. This is so disturbing, and you know, I'm glad that RK juniors out there raising awareness about public health because maybe more people will start paying attention. We are a nation of obese people, and I don't know that it's necessarily just because we're all eating too much. There's got to be some something

else nefarious going on here. But as far as military service is concerned, you would think to be lean, mean fighting machines now, But it turns out more than two thirds of look like John Candy from stripes. It's reported more than two thirds of reserve and Guard troops are overweight, which is just as a potential threat to the readiness and their ability to deploy at a moment's notice. This

a report by American Security Project. Sixty eight percent of the nation's reserve forces are overweight, according to the researcher's estimate. In the report, they say, with the diminished size of active duty force and increased demands on National Guard and reserves, service members separate separated due to obesity and its comorbidities, are vital personnel the armed forces cannot afford to lose. Study calls for a new policy to ensure troops health

and better access to obesity related healthcare. Defense Secretary Pete Hegzeth in an ex post, completely unacceptable. This is what happens when standards are ignored. All caps on that word, and this is what we are changing. Real fitness and wage standards are here, we will be fit and not fat. Close quote. Now, this isn't the first time this American

Security Project has done an analysis. This apparently report from October twenty twenty three found the two thirds of active duty service members fell into the overweight to obese category. If you're just looking at BMI, and some people challenge BMI because it doesn't take into account muscle mass, but

it certainly is an indicator of a problem. The report warned that these service members experience heightened risk for a wide variety of serious health conditions such as type two diabetes, cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, osteoarthritis, which may lead to

life threatening health events such as stroke and heart failure. Wow. Now, for his part, Pete Hegsett launched a review of grooming and physical fitness standards last month after expressing a lot of concerns that fitness standards have eroded, also questioning whether

mismatched standards for men and women are affecting readiness. Acting under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness to look at existing standards set by the military departments pertaining to physical fitness, body composition, and grooming, which includes, but is not limited to beards. He's an old school guy, I guess. He wrote in his book War on Warriors when we were when I was in the army, we kicked out good soldiers for having naked women tattooed on their arms.

And today we're relaxing the standards on shaving, dreadlocks, man buns, and straight up obesity. Well, I guess, and you could say you saw this one coming. Service branches began making accommodation for recruits who did not meet physical fitness standards in recent years as a way to address the recruiting crisis. So we can't get people to sign up for the

American military. There are very few people out there in the world, young people who otherwise might have joined the military because they don't meet our recruiting standards in so far as their weight is concerned and their ability to the ability to their physical fitness ability. So we're just gonna get rid of the you know, standards and allow people who otherwise wouldn't qualify for military service to join

the service. Fortunately, though under the trub administration, the recruiting crisis, I don't know. I can't say it's over but from by all accounts and from everything I've read, a lot more young people are signing up for American military service. So I don't know. It just really troubling to me. You known, know this all happened over my lifetime and you last, I mean the thirty forty years. You know, I was the fat kid in the neighborhood. You know, I was ten Ton Thomas, but I was skinny by

today's standards of what is fat and what's not. Yeah, you talk about bullying. I got bullied all the time by the neighborhood kids. But you know, I will say something along those lines that bullying was a motivational tool for me to ultimately lose the weight. And it's amazing what puberty coupled with being on the Cincinnati Marlins can do to turn one around from a physical fitness standpoint.

So if you're looking for a solution to perhaps an overweight child, abam joined the Marlins or some comparable swimming outfit like that. During my Marlins days, I could literally

eat anything. I've burned through five thousand collaries a day as much as I used to swim back then, and managed to lose all the weight ID normal size and along lines of Health Pepsi COO, they've agreed to remove all of artificial agreements from their food items by twenty twenty five, AH heating to call it a band artificial agreements by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Junior Ramon La Guarta, Pepsi COO Chair and chief executive

officers said in a recent conference called that the company will reduce artificial ingredients and has already begun doing so well. We've been leading the transformation of the industry now for a long time on sodium reduction, sugar ducts, and better fats. Sixty percent plus of our portfolio today doesn't have any artificial colors. He also said the company is undergoing that transition.

He cited specifically Lays and Tostitos, which quote will be out of artificial colors by the end of this year. Why do you think it takes them so long? Can't you just slip a switch and stop adding artificial colors. No, we're going to use up the stock of artificial colors

who've already bought before we turn them off. So healthing Human Service Secretary in the news release recently establishing a national standard and timeline for the food industry to transition from petrochemical based dyes to natural alternatives the way I guess they do it in Europe, initiating the process to revoke authorization for two synthetic food coloring citrus red number two and orange be within the coming months, and working

with industries to eliminate six remaining synthetic dyes and who knew they were a petrochemical based fdn C Green number three, fd and C Red number forty, FDNC Yellow number five and six, and fdn C Blue number one and two. By the end of the year, they'll be in it from the food supply, which I suppose is a good thing. And there's a certified nutrition that's incited in the article that by Fox News. Some author named Liana Werner Gray. She wrote a book called Earth Diet, and she just

documented her experience. She because I personally eliminated ar official dies like a red, forty, yellow five, yellow six, blue one and others from my diet over sixteen years ago when I started the Earth Diet, living a natural lifestyle, and she's once I removed these dies and switched to natural, whole food based alternatives. The symptoms she had went away symptoms including major moon swings, anxieties, skin breakouts, energy crashes,

and strong impulsive urges to eat processed foods. And I'll tell you from my own experience getting rid of sugar, I don't have really any desire for it anymore. You got to go through that withdraw period, and I'm honest with you. You know, like if you go on that keto diet, they called it keto flu. And I've mentioned this before and it's well documented. Hell yeah, it's a thing. It's like going through a heroin withdraw is the only analogy I can draw, even though I've never been on

hooked on heroin or whatever tried it. But you know what people go through, you know, they shake and they sweat, and you've seen movies about it and everything like that. It wasn't nearly that bad, but you, oh, you felt miserable, and yeah, you head straight for the carb cabinet. You have one of those in your kitchen, the carb cabinet. That's where your chips are, your p tet, pretzels and the bread and all that. Man, when I cut those out of my diet, I found myself just unconsciously walking

over there as a matter of routine. It was like part of my you know, every hour on the hour kind of thing. Walk over there, I'll just have a couple of chips. Open the back, get a couple of chips, you put the bag back in. An hour later, you're back at the Carbre cabinet. So, you know, just been my experience. But getting it out of my diet has

just been an outstanding thing for me. And I wreck I say this out loud now because I'm patting myself on the back, because I'm encouraging you to maybe get on the health bandwagon and feel better in your day to day life by getting this crap out of your life.

Heading over to Donald Trump's desk for his signature, a bill co sponsored by Ted Cruz and Amy Klobashar, So you got both sides of the ledger already passed the Senate unanimously back in February. Trump already indicated previously that he would sign the bill into law. So there you have it. Milania Trump was behind this as well, one of the things that she championed. Going back to the two voted against it. Anybody want a guess who

one of them was. Two OUs Republicans, Representative Thomas Massey of Kentucky and Eric Burlson the Missouri voted against the bill. It requires US websites to remove the content within forty eight hours of being notified to the issue. According to Thomas Massey and his post on Acts. Tonight, we're voting on the Take It Down Act, a bill that would impose federal criminal and civil penalties for publishing unauthorized intimate pictures generated with AI. I'm voting no because I feel

this is a slippery slope ripe for abuse with unintended consequences. Now, I don't have to get Master on the program to further elaborate on his perception of that. I'd have to just guess what the ripe for abuse and unattended consequences component may be. Now, someone hacks into your computer and makes it look like you're the one that posts something

like this. That's one thing I always worry about that kind of thing happening, you know, because we have some people out in the world who are very nefarious, as we learn about every single Friday here in the fifty

five krecy Morning Show with Tech Friday. And if someone can hack into your computer, can't that person hack into your computer like pretty for example, put child porn on it, and then a lot authorities that you're a pedophile and you got child porn and the cert your surfing child porn, and then they come over to your house with the search warrant they find it on and then you get prosecuted for something you had no idea even on your computer.

I certainly can envision a scenario where that might happen. So maybe it's something along those lines, but it's not elaborated on in the article about his specific reasons for voting against it. So maybe when next time Congress masses on the program, because you know, it sounds like a good idea generally speaking.

of millions of dollars for their stadium projects. Credit w CPOs Paul Christian for reporting Ohio House passed the six hundred million dollar bond deal to help the Cleveland Browns out. I wonder what kind of goods the Cleveland Browns have

on members of the House. They're building a one point two billion dollar dome, stadium, and entertainment district a place called Brook Park, so we get to pay for it six hundred million dollars worth financed by bonds which are going to end up costing like a billion dollars over however many years we pay the bonds out. I just am so disturbed by this. Of course, the Bengals not

a part of that agreement, I guess. Speaking with WCPO, State Senator George Lang Butler, kind of Republican serves on the Senate Finance Committee, said, I think if we do for one, we have to do it for all. It's either do all or do none. I personally will choose the latter option. Lawmakers receive separate requests for additional funding from the Bengals and FC Cincinnati. Bengals and Hamilton County asking for three hundred and fifty million dollars for pay

Corpse Stadium renovations. FC Cincinnati wants it's hand in the cookie jar to be reimbursed for thirty percent of the construction costs on its planned three hundred and thirty two million dollar mixed use development near TQL Stadium. Lang, for his part, says, well, you can't blame them for asking. If you don't ask, you don't get it. Yes, that may be true, but you don't have to get it.

Lang features creating new community. This is kind of comical community authority districts drawn in geographic areas around the stadiums where business and property owners can vote to increase sales taxes to raise money to make payments on the project's debt. Now, my IMDIA reaction to that is how big of a geographically defined space around the stadium is that going to be?

Because I'd be willing to walk an extra block or two to save the additional tax that they're going to charge within that particular zone, right, I mean, it's not going to get go into the zone and buy an automobile anyway, he said, I would like to explore that scenario. Taxpayers are not on the hook. Yeah, well, unless you're buying something, he said, for the banks that could literally make the banks the project, it makes sense for it

to expand a little bit further. And for FC Cincinnati, that whole development around there, I mean it's exploding, well, I mean it is exploding naturally, and because of the supply and demand, FC Stadium is there, It's become a very popular thing soccer here in this city of Cincinnati, and so much like Wrigley Field in Chicago, people kind

of want to live by it. It's an expanding, evolving community that apparently doesn't need a capital infusion of three hundred and thirty two million dollars I don't know, or at least thirty percent of the construction cost of that from the state taxpayers. Here's another interesting statement from Lang, except we should not participate in this. If these teams are going to hold us hostage in twenty five or thirty years and say give me more or I'm leaving

for the Browns, I'd like a fifty year commitment. For the Bengals, I'd like a thirty year commitment. I kind of put lol next to that, because that's within his well. If they're going to pack up their bags and threaten us thirty years down the road, I don't want that part of the deal. So you get a thirty year commitment from the Bengals thirty years down the road. They could threaten to pack up their bags. And I don't

know why the Browns would get a longer commitment. Why not make both of them commit to fifty years or maybe even agree to never leave. I don't know, but you know what fundamentally unfair and in time when we're dealing with economic problems. You know, our property tax bills going through the roof, some people's financially struggling out in the world. You know, electricity bills going up. Everything seems to be going up. Inflation is taking a real toll. Go ahead and try to buy a stake at the

allow E fifteen to be used all year round. That's the ethanol fifteen percent ethanol gasoline, which I believe was created as a consequence of the lack of available real gasoline. I know it's not necessarily good for I mean, it's bad for engines that were built before twenty two thousand and one. You're not supposed to use it in motorcycles and small engines or at water craft. It doesn't give you as good as gas mileagy. You lose like two

percent of miles per gallon. And I know that doesn't sound like a whole lot, but another downside of it, and it's just built to support the agricultural industry. It's just a gift to the corn growers. Not to diss the corn growers, but you know, why are we putting food in our gas tanks when we have an abundance of oil and we can refine and actually provide real gasoline. Just get out of the way, you evil environmentalists. And

that's what the Trump administration is doing. And yet here we are having the EPA now allow this moved And according to the Agricultural Secretary Brook Rollins in a written statement yesterday thanking the EPA for this decision, this move will allow the summer sale of E fifteen, which apparently makes it smaggier, so you're gonna have more small out there. Will provide immediately relief to consumers. What relief, provide more choices at the pump, and drive demand for corn grown

process and use right here in America. And I think that's the only reason we're burning food gas in our gas tanks. By administration also allowed E fifteen to be sold in the summertime in twenty two to twenty three and twenty four, as it faced high gasoline prices, particularly

in the wake of Russian invasion Ukraine. Plus pivoting over to this, Newsom has gasoline awakening, plus what we've done to ourselves, cutting our own throats in the name of climate change, and that right, well, we'll California Governor Gavin Newsom do when he doesn't have oil companies to kick

around anymore. The possibility is suddenly occurring to him. After Valero announced last week that it will close a major Bay Area refinery and signaling another in Los Angeles was at risk arguing even higher auguring even higher gasoline prices.

Valaro said it will idle, restructure, or cease refining operations at its Venicea refinery by April next year, citing uncertainly related to current or contemplated legal, political, or regulatory developments that are adverse to or restrict refining and marketing operations. In other words, we're under attack by Sacramento, California. Chevron more or less said the same thing when it announced last summer that it's moving its headquarters to Texas from

San Ramon, California. Same thing with Phillips sixty six planned to close a major southern California refinally, after Newsom signed a bill to let the state Energy Commission micro manage refineries, oil companies warned the law would make operating refineries uneconomic. Newsom didn't listen. Instead, he shot the messengers quote, they buy all these ads saying somehow it's California's fault. They've been manipulating you, They've been lying to you. Not so.

Closure of the Valerra and Phillip sixty six refineries will eliminate twenty percent of California's already constrained refining capacity over the next twelve months, increasing the risk of supply shortages and price bikes. I think the gas prices are high now. In the Golden State, average gasoline gallon costs four dollars and eighty cents. Just wait, national average right now apparently

is three dollars and thirty cents. And if you collect your your Kroger points, my wife just paid two dollars and twenty cents the other day filling up the tank and our five gallon gas cans two twenty who'd ever thought that that might happen again? Anyway. Not so in California. Several refineries have shut down over the last decade because of the burdensome regulations as California's low carbon fuel standard

and cap and trade program kicked in. Few refineries outside the state can produce California's mandated clean fuel, so whenever a California refinery has a problem, gas prices go through the roof. After a fire to Bay Area refinery in February, price is shot up thirty five cents a gallon. Democrats, as usual, accused oil companies of price manipulation and their infinite ill wisdom. They passed along twenty twenty three, Letting Energy Commission set a maximum gross gasoline refining margin and

imposed a penalty on refiners that exceeded it. Then there's the California Air Resources board recent tightening of its low carbon fuel standard, which the board predicted would raise gasoline prices by forty seven cents a gallon this year alone. All this plus taxes, explained why California's gas prices on average a dollar sixty four gallon higher than what we the rest of us out in the nation pay. The Valero and Phillip sixty six closure could lift prices by

another one dollar a gallon, according to some estimates. Enter mister Newsom, who on Monday urged his Energy Commission to

mend fences with oil companies. Its essential quote, refiners continue to see the value in serving the California market and to reinforce the state's openness to a collaborative relationship and our firm belief that Californians can be protected from price spikes and refiners can profitably operate in California, a market where demand for gasoline will still exist for years to come, he wrote. He tells us as he tries to clean up his record ahead of a potential presidential bid in

twenty twenty eight. But if it's sincere, he'll drop his war on the industry. You see, it's just proof, putting proofs in the pudding. They make it very difficult to refine gasoline and burn gasoline. The State of California regulations create a massive increase in the cost for the citizenry of the California. Take away the regulations, the price would go down. The self inflicted wound California trying to lead the globe and reducing carbon emissions or whatever. As if

it's going to have an impact craziness. E wait till you hear what's going on in Germany. If we'll get to that in a minute. Six forty five or forty six to fifty five care City Talk station.

the bridge. Chuck Ingram on fifty five KO see the talk station six fifty one fifty five KERCD talk station. A happy Tuesday to you. Yeah, A cautionary tale from our friends in Germany. Continuing to theme along the lines of these year we cut our own throats in the name of so called climate change. Everybody knows I'm a

non believer when it comes to that religion. But again Wall Street Journal, Germany's invested so many hundreds of billions in euros of its green and its green energy transition over the years that no one can tally the precise amount. Yet the share of the wind and solar power in the country's energy mix in the first quarter of this year managed to fall by a lot. Pointing out here there's a lesson for the United States. Again, A cautionary tale.

Renewable sources made up about some forty seven percent of electricity consumption in Germany, Europe's largest economy, at least formerly, I would argue, in the first three months of twenty twenty four, down from fifty six percent in the first three months of twenty twenty four. The drop comes despite Germany's continuing build out of renewable generation. The country's added eight hundred and seventy two windmill.

compared to a year ago. But as the journal notes, we're talking about Germany in March, relatively short daylight hours in the northern latitude met its boost with solar wasn't enough to offset the decline and wind generation. These climactic conditions happened regularly enough in Germany and the German language has a word for it, don'kl flauta. Also, I mean in English dark stillness. It means renewables alone can't power

and advanced industrial economy. As even Berlin is starting to notice new coalition agreement that will form on the basis of the incoming Chancellor of Friedrich Merz's agenda envisions building twenty gigawatts of natural gas fired power generation by twenty thirty to provide stable base of power, but Merzy's left wing coalition commits to continuing a renewable buildout as well.

Good luck with that. Since an over reliance on intermittent renewables tends to make it uneconomical to run natural gas plants as a backup, expect more subsidies in the future. Notably, nuclear power is absent from their energy production plan. Germany is further down the road of renewable power than many other large economies like here. Its energy mess is enough to make everyone realize it's not an example to follow. Well, aimen to that. What wrong with German people? Well, they're idiots.

They listen to Greta Thunberg. I mean you can't run factories on a windmill. I mean there's nothing more than you can take away from this reality. We're watching it happen. It's like ignoring all the other efforts by people to become socialist governments, only to see them collapse before their very eyes. Oh, we need to do it here. They just haven't done it right there. All those other times when they tried it, they just didn't do it right. Well, we'll get it right this time. No, you're not. We

need to stop cutting our throats. And thank god we got the Trump administration who's turning its back on this all green nonsense, all the above approach, which here in the United States also includes nuclear. Let's start fast tracking it. I'd like some reliable power and this is one of those areas. And when I talked to VV. Ramaswami about this, you know, we could lead the nation in nuclear power.

We could be a magnet for business and industry because we have constant, never ending, clean, efficient, small nuclear plant, modular type plant footprint, nuclear plant production. Why wouldn't we go down that road? Coming up? In six fifty six, fifty five krc DE talk station doctor Stanley Ridgeley with a book DEI exposed after the top of the R News be right back a.

He's a clinical full Professor of Strategic Management at Drection University, holds a doctor and master's in International International Relations and Security from Duke University and an International MBA from Temple U Russian language linguist and former military intelligence officer and author of a book we're talking about today, DI exposed how the biggest con of the century almost toppled higher education.

Doctor Ridgley, Welcome to the fifty five CASE Morning. So it's a real pleasure to have you on this morning.

this shoved down their throats. And part of me wants to conclude, and maybe you can answer the question for me. This is made of This is just like a whole cloth creation designed to provide jobs for people who went to college and got worthless degrees in social justice. I mean, is that about?

justice and that kind of thing. It's really basically just coercing people to believe a kind of a make believe world of the United States as a racist institute, a racist country, and the colleges and universities are somehow riven with white supremacy culture. It's a fraud, it's and it's a real injustice to our students to have admitted these people onto the campuses to perpetuate this nonsense.

You know, you've got Harvard, which is you know they've been calling for, uh, this noble opposition to the Trump administration. But who runs Harvard? Well, it's the billionaire Penny Pritsker at the head of the Harvard Corporation with her fellow billionaire Bitty Madison and Bitty Martin. I'm sorry. And and these are the these are the oligarchs, the billionaire oligarchs that the left is always talking about, and they're in control of Harvard. And we don't we don't ever hear that.

All we see is the President Garber standing up for racketemic freedom and freedom of speech. This is absurd, It's just a fraud.

this hubrist that attaches to the Harvard name. And so you've got these billionaires that are there's there's thirteen members of the Harvard Corporation. Pritzker is the head of this corporation and they're they're basically is by the way, her brother is JB. Boss Pritzker, the governor of Illinois. There's nothing that comes to they said they got their money through inheritance. They're the Hyatt hotel uh errors of that fortune.

And so so I can't really speak to her motivation except to the idea of power and the ability through their money to uh actuate their ideology. And I'm going back to the whole idea of DEI. It's not what people think it is. And this has been the major strength of DEI. It's not creating a level playing field for everyone. It's not catering to marginalized populations, giving everyone a hand, a helping hand. It's not just teaching about race and teaching about slavery. No, it's none of those things.

That those things happen, it's merely as a byproduct. It is the acceptance and propounding of a noxious, toxic doctrine of racialism, where everyone is slotted into one of two categories, either villain or victim, either you know, white, non white, oppressor or oppressed, and nothing else in one's history matters. Not your education, not your attitude, not your parents, you know, not your way. Often nothing matters except race. And that is the dirty secret of DEI that is now being exposed.

We live under the banner of freedom, at least we used to, you know, the flag would stand for this, this freedom concept where yes, in the United States you can be yourself and choose your own pursuits. But this is ruining to that national cohesion. The flag is then viewed as a symbol of racism because of you know, historic racism and this whole concept the were just evil white supremacists. I mean, this is leading to the end of our country. And maybe is that the nefarious element

that's going on behind all this. They don't want the United States to continue its amazing success.

in a new bottle. It's Marxism if you really wack it. Down to it. The idea of Marxist class consciousness has been replaced with race consciousness, and the framework is virtually unchanged. And so this is the idea that it's somehow, some sort of racial equity type of things is really cool.

It's the old social justice crowd, collectivist crowd trying to supersede and trying to argue and coerce people into believing this notion of collectivism that you're identity in a group is far more important than your identity as an individual.

on your paper. The world's obviously different place since then, and I think this is reflected in the in the media's shift to a far left sort of uniform lockstep left wing reporting perception because they're victims of this one sided view in college ed education we've lost the media to this. I mean, is this something that can be undone? Can this bell be unwrong? Or is it too late?

Because colleges are filled with professors who have a uniform ideology anymore, you can't be a conservative and teach college of courses anymore.

being true. So the Department of Education is utilizing funding is leverage against the universities, and yes, it is against the universities to become serious institutions again, become places where that marketplace of ideas is a reality, where those ideas can you contend in an open debate, rather than having certain views suppressed as we find right now. And that is indeed the case. And I detail this and I

chronicled this and DEI exposed. Do I exposed DEI is simply this this latest did for in perimature over the universities, and they found it very useful because it sounds good, doesn't it. Diversity, equity, and inclusion, just like cults like the Moonies utilize the terms peace and unity, that's their motto, and the inclusion and belonging. It sounds very cult like. Well, and that's because it is.

also the removal of meritocracy. There are many, many people of color that have reached lofty positions through their merit, through their experience and their knowledge of any given industry or position, they earned it. And this idea that you're going to just fill in a check mark that oh black check, We're going to hire that person merely because they're the right color, even though there are more qualified Asians or pick a color, skin, or nationality. We're not

going to hire those people. We're going to put this person in because they meet this equity checkbox or diversity checkbox that waters down and negates those people who've actually earned those positions because people have this perception like, wow, you're a diversity higher. I know you've heard that term before.

going to finally move beyond this. I should point out that the latest executive order from last week striking down disparate impact, the idea that if you can show that there's some sort of statistical result that shows that somehow one group is having a different outcome than other groups, you can utilize this to prove individual discrimination against you. And this has been an absurd notion that is in

our judicial system that is now being struck down. Those of us and social sciences know this is a fraud, it's a fallacy. You can't do this because it makes it's not valid, and yet we find it. We've been following this disparate impact for quite some time. That's no longer to be the case.

of Jewish people. How has DEI fueled anti Semitism? And I don't understand how it is that there's some what their motivation is, and anger over that the Jewish people is on college campuses as if the Nazis took over.

So it doesn't matter how many assaults or bullying or trespassing or vandalism that kind of thing is perpetrated against Jewish students, it doesn't matter. And I have an entire chapter on this of how DEI has perpetrated this anti Semitic ethos on campus, that it's okay to discriminate against Jewish students, it's okay to bully them and to assault

them because they deserve it, because they are oppressors. In this framework that I've described to you, that's the that's the core of DEI, that you and I are in a particular racial category and are deserving of our faith, the fate being determined by the Dei ideology. It's the thing that motivated Luigimangioni to kill Brian Thompson in New York. His ideology for him to do this.

It's just it's okay to discriminate against someone on the color, based on the color of their skin. It's just got to be the right color in their eyes.

the fact of the idea of coercion. I'm going to compel you to do something that I want you to do that my ideology tells you do, because I have access to this hidden knowledge that the left has always been claiming on the college campuses.

A Happy Tuesday to you. I love the empower You seminars. They are amazing thing. And thanks always the Dan regular to fram Usa originally a fram Usa for creating the concept of empower. You've been doing this for decade, about a decade, and it's just filled with all types of

different topics, not always political. We learned about Woodrow Wilson, or you're going to learn about Woodrow Wilson tonight, but Thursday being at seven pm, you're going to hear about the Here from the foremost authority on John Lennon and the Beatles, Jude Sutherland Kessler, leading authority on John leven having spent the last thirty eight years researching and writing the first six books and an anticipated nine volume John

Lennon series. Welcome to the program, Jude. It's a pleasure to have you on this morning.

get all that resolve. But pivoting over, how did you become such a massive Beatles and more of John Lennon per first and foremost? But fan, what started all this for you?

And unfortunately I chose George Harrison the first day and they were so disappointed they wouldn't tell me why but they were very disappointed in me. So I went home and I did what I always do. I did research, and I called their big sisters and said, tell me about these Beatles. And I found out that John Lennon was considered the leader, the smart Beatle. And so I went back the next day and said, listen, I changed

to my mind, it's John Lennon. And I think I was like nine years old and it's been John Lennon ever since.

a great singer. And she did it because he was being swallowed up by tragedy, and of course just a few laters, she herself was hitting killed by drug driver and she was taking away from him, and then his best friends to Sutcliffe was taken away from him. How John Lennon persevered and gave us the soundtrack of Our Lives is the greatest success story of all time?

at least within rock music. Roger Waters obviously the sort of John Lennon, like David Gilmore, more like Paul McCartney, more poppy, more traditional, non experimentation kind of music. Do you kind of feel that way the same way as I do in my observations?

of rock and roll music. But what was with them getting rid of Pete Best? And favorite Ringo star.

step onto the stage of the world. But I will say the real mystery is not why they broke up, but how in the world two alpha male, brilliant, talented big dogs like John and Paul stayed together as long as they did. That's the real miracle.

The music obviously was very appealing, and they were good looking kind of guys, and that there was an appeal there. But you know, back then, you know, music was often just word of mouth. You shared sort of records that you ran into. Some local DJ would pick up on an album and they would play it and then people would start asking them to play it again, and that would create a phenomenon. How did it happen with the Beatles?

other ingredient. And this is so crucial to their sel is that every time I interview someone who attended a concert, whether it's in Cincinnati or in Chicago or wherever, they tell me the same thing. They looked right at me, they sang a song to me, They stared straight at me. Both men and women say the same thing. Somehow they had the ability to connect with an audience in ways that no one else could.

they played here at Cincinnata Gardens, the rudimentary equipment. I mean, I don't know that anybody in the audience actually could hear the words they were singing or the music that they were playing. There were so many screams and shouts, which in and of itself was a wild phenomenon back then, this unrestrained exuberance that the fans, most notably the women in the audience had right you.

two three talk found five fifty on AT and T phone. Yeah, I just would love I'd just like to listen to the song. Joe, you do this to me every once in a while, and I just don't want to say anything, but I do appreciate that. Got to move on, so I've got something to say. Feel free to call. After the top of the our news, it's the Inside Scoop

with Bright Barton News. Immigration expert Neil Munroe joins the program to talk about the new executive order ensuring truck drivers speak English, and we'll talk border security and as far as border security is concerned CBS, so you know this implicit bias and anything CBS does right. They did a poll of twenty three hundred and sixty five adults and it showed that fifty six percent of those polled approve of Donald Trump's program to fined and deport immigrants

who are in the country illegally. It's broken down. Ninety percent of Republicans are happy with it. Fifty four percent of independence approved, but only twenty two percent of Democrats approve. Paul asked about illegal immigrants, not about illegal migrants who committed crimes, so it was a general question, not for

the specific criminal illegal aliens. Women split fifty to fifty sixty three percent of men backing Trump's program, eighty percent of liberals disapproved, eighty nine percent of conservatives approve, which is consistent with I think most of the people's tea

leafreading on this. The left wants these in, and you think sanctuary cities magnets for the illegal immigrant communities or for illegal immigrants generally creating a larger population base for the purposes of maintaining or getting more congressional seats, because it's judge based on population, so that may be the nefarious component behind it, not that they're going to be voting necessarily, but when it comes to overall population. That may be what's going on behind the scenes on that.

But most people are happy with it. President Trump's not an executive voter yesterday, escalating his battle against the sanctuary cities and states don't fully cooperate with federal immigration authorities.

The order directs the Attorney General and the Secretary of Homeland Security to identify within a month cities and states that are not complying with federal immigration laws designate them, designating them as sanctuary jurisdictions, which then could face a cutoff of federal funding as well as possible criminal and civil suits if they refuse to change their laws and

their practices. Could there be repercussions, White House Press Secretary of Carolyn Levitt said yesterday at a briefing along with Tom Holme, and Trump's borders are It's quite simple. Obey the law, respect the law. Don'tumstruct federal immigration officials and law enforcement officials when they were simply trying to remove public safety threats from our nation's communities and the order.

Trump also directs the Justice Department to pursue civil rights cases against city or states and in its view, if a favor immigrants over country over in this country, ill legally over US citizen, citing policies that treat immigrants more leniently in criminal cases or in sentencings, and state laws that provide immigrants in state tuition rates at public universities yet deny the lower rates to US citizens who live out of the state. Apparently at least twenty five states

have adopted such laws in some fashion or other. And you know, get a load of that. You get illegal immigrants in your state, and you'll provide the lower tuition rate to them. But if there's some person, like you're talking about a California university and there's somebody out in Ohio who foolishly wants to go to California to go to college, you're not going to give them the lower rate.

That doesn't really make any sense to me. Of course, the administration is facing legal challenges on the actions that's already take taken against sanctuary cities. Last week, federal judge in California block Trump suffers to strip federal funding from sixteen counties and cities in the state, like San Francisco, under executive orders he had previously signed. Judge ruled the orders likely overstepped the president's authority and constitutional requirement of

due process and protections against coercion. That ruin took issue with prior order or lack of specificity in Despine defining which jurisdictions were deemed sanctuaries, an issue. Yesterday's executive order attempts to scourt by requiring the Justice Department of Homeland Security to formulate a list. Okay, problem presented to the judge, flagged it out, and problem solved with this executive order.

Maybe now going over to Boston Michelle Mayor Michelle wou she said the executive order wouldn't change policies in the sanctuary city quote. The courts have backed us up on this as well. That In a statement yesterday over in Chicago, spokesman for Mayor Brandon Johnson said that making lists of cities to withhold federal funds based on their political leadership as fundamentally unconstitutional and undemocratic. No, it's not based on

political leadership. It's based on your decision to not enforce US immigration laws and obstruct proper lawful law enforcement from enforcing federal laws. So don't try to hide behind this as a party issue that the Democrat Party and their mayors and their governors have chosen to do sanctuary cities and states and defy federal law and deny ice from its ability to do its job and throw up roadblocks in front of that. That's the conduct that is the

predicate for this. It's not because you're Democrats. Well, because you're Democrats, you carry these philosophies. But still inside scoop a bright Bard news coming up off top of the our news fall by the Daniel Davis Deep Dive with to get the latest on Russia and Ukraine at eight thirty. I hope you can stick around us. Happens fast, stay up to date at the top of the hour. Not going to be complicated, It's going to go very fast. Fifty five KRC the talk station this reported.

the show, sir. Glad to be on, Glad to have you on, and glad to have you reporting about the border and border security. I was just talking about it before the top of the hour break. The CBS poll that came out just the other day. Apparently Donald Trump is enjoying widespread, overwhelming approval about his program to find and deport immigrants, not just illegal immigrants, but immigrants generally are our brother not just criminal illegal immigrants, but who

are in the country illegally. Fifty four percent of the six percent rather of those poll to prove it, ninety percent of Republicans, fifty four percent of Independence and only twenty two percent of Democrats. But overall, it's enjoying widespread support.

It's really truly amazing, isn't it, Neil, what one change of administration was able to accomplish in such a short period of time in towards in terms of shutting down the influx of illegal immigrants as well as deporting the most nefarious of the group.

to America? First, You've got to do mortgage your farm. You got to take out a loan from the local bank, and they only go north to America if they can pay off the loan, right. And but Biden and the

New York As his evil sidekick were doing. They were telling the migracy, you know, you come up here and will let you go, and then you can get a job and you'll work eighteen hours a day for you know, five dollars an hour or whatever, so also in better wages, and you could pay off your death and you can get money for your kids and your wife and your house. Maybe you don't want to go home, but you can learn a lot of money if you come up here

for a while. That's what your federal government was saying. And they were doing that because they wanted to pump up. They wanted to move a lot more money into the pockets of big corporations and big investments. And it was very successful. Your housing prices rose, your interest rates went up, the price of eggs went up, the prices all those went down, rents went up. That was great, that's what

they wanted. It sounds insane, but driving up housing prices is great for people who own large blocks of land, who own a part building to well ow an office building. So that's what they were doing, they said it, Oh yeah, I do to ask them well.

So Americans are divided, so Americans are fighting with each other. That's great for big government because then big government can say, well, you Americans are fighting over there in that corner. This

is what we're going to do. And one of the things they did they imported roughly speaking, ten million people during Biden's years fourteen to fifteen million if you count all the legalized workers, the white collar workers, and among them were about say ten million illegals across the southern border, and they were putting them to jobs, and it looks like they put half a million, eight hundred thousand of them. That's half a million. It's very hard to track into

the trucking business. So when you drive out on the highway, you're passing trucks, and trucks are passing you that have been driven by illegal migrants or longer migrants aquasi illegal migrants. There's numerous ways they did it, so about five hundre let's say, five hundred thousand people on the road are basically not Americans and what often what they're doing is like, so this is the way it works. A couple of Indians in India say, I want to make some money

for my family from my village in America. I go to the American embassy and I'll get a visitor's visa, you know, like I'm a tourist, okay, but under the visitors visa, they're allowed to become truck drivers. So the family, So a couple of young men will get together, say ten thousand dollars it's fortunate in India, and then they'll fly off them they get the visa because Trump of Biden's people will just hand them out like candy. They fly into America and then they got ten thousand dollars

for comment. So they have more or less buy commercial driver's licenses in California and various other loosely, you know, very generous states, let's say, and take its driving course, a little bit of this, a little bit of that, and pretty much a couple of a month or so later, they're on the road. They're on the road, barrewing passed you at eighty five miles an hour, singing happily themselves in Hindi by the way, there's two. There's two or

three guys in that truck. So when they get in the truck in La, they can drive to Florida or Texas or New York in one go. They barely have to stop. There's a sort of government regardation that says you can't drive more than they are. And and then there's of course the basic rules. You need to stop to go to the bathroom shower. Not these guys. These guys are making money, a tiny amount of dollars that's

worth a fortune in India. So they're happy putting the hammer down for eighty miles an hour across the United States. So if you don't like those big trucks barreling by you, that's them. Now, Biden and New Yorkers did that to you. They did that. They made that possible. And so the Obama's people. There's a rule that says, an old rule that says you can't drive on American roads unless you

pass a reading test. Okay, it doesn't sound unreasonable. This was designed for say, Canadian truckers drill delivered beer into Detroit or something like that. Our Mexican delivery agriculture product in Texas they were supposed to be able to read. Well, the Indian language or Eritrean language, or Kazakh language or Somali language or Cameroonian language is completely different. These guys can't even read our letters. And in twenty sixteen, Obama's

people said, you know what, we love these immigrants. We want more immigration. Let's stop, and we want cheap labor. Because the companies always want cheap labor. Let's stop enforcing that rule. So in twenty sixteen, they stopped and forcing the rule that said if you can't read the signs, you can't drive. That's how Biden and New York I've got five hundred thousands migrants onto the roads behind the

driving eighteen wheelers. That just ended the language rule. And you never heard about it because most media doesn't care. It's a tiny little rule, very very deep in the federal government. And I never knew and I covered this stuff full time, and I didn't even know that people could fly in here on B one visitor visas and get truck driving license. Because there's so much going on. It's also chaotic, it's also confusing. It's also incredibly complex

that I didn't know. Well, I found out a couple of months ago what was going on, and I wrote it up. And then Trump and its people they're like sharks. They're politicians. They're after votes and poll ratings. That's what keeps them going is what we want. We don't need him to love us. We don't need him to rhapsodize about American society. We need him to help by following the polls. So they saw that and they've quickly changed

the rules. And yesterday Trump announced in an executive order telling is sexuality of transportation to start and forcing the language rule. So soon enough, a month or two, they will start and forcing the rule that if drivers can't read English, they can't.

this cheap labor mean? First of all, it which is a huge number of American trucking companies out of business, so names disappear, jobs disappear. It also drives down wages, right, and so what that means is truckers get poorer and poorer and less than less experiences, and so American drivers will get worse. And here's another thing it does. When there's truck drivers willing to drive across the country can't without getting out of the cab in their little teams,

what do the warehousing companies and retailers do. They don't care what happens to truckers. So a lot of truckers spend a lot of time waiting to park, waiting at warehouses be loaded or unloaded, which is really unfair. If I drive eight r the one we paid for eight hours, well, under federal rules, you don't get paid waiting in a park loss. So many of these truckers have to waste

many hours doing nothing and one reason. And that's bad for all of us because it means we have more trucks and more costs in order to deliver the same amount of stuff. But when there are plenty of cheap drivers, the warehousers, the warehouse companies are under no pressure to improve efficiency. They don't care if the truckers are stuck four or five hours in the parking lots. It's not their problem. They're not paying for it. And if there's

loads of truckers, the trucker counts right back. So if there was a shortage of labor, the whole system would get more efficient. If there was a shortage of labor, the warehouses would say, you know, let's speed this up. Let's stop wasting time. Let's make everything more efficient and more productive. And that's what makes Americans, which when the country gets more productive, more efficient when there's less wasted time. But cheap labor from overseas just turns everything to mush.

When you stuff more people in the country, right, the economy doesn't get more efficient, so everyone knows spending more of their greater share of their money on rent and property and on various other things too. It's like it's migration makes the country as a whole bigger, fat, or richer, but it doesn't make the average American.

can see how crazy people drive these days. Maybe it's part of the problem because illegal immigrants can get drivers' licenses.

it's been in a thousand years. In Norway, there are people from wilder cultures where they don't have road signs or they don't particularly obey the road laws because they come because the grandparents didn't have no car with all very recent and so there are people drive at different rates. And everybody you know of has had the road insurance rates rise up, and that's partly because immigration has brought an immense amount of inexperience and reckless drivers, and it

has also brought in a huge amount of theft. So we will regularly see articles about illegal migrants stealing catalytic conversions in Canada and here there's a huge illegal If you're from often illegal migrants will say, Wow, that's a really great car, be worth a fortune in my home country,

How do I get it? There A lot a lot of migrant steel cars, very professionally, very sophisticated, very electronic, high tech, and they stick them in a container and or their ownership in Baltimore a day later heading off to South Africa or Bornosires or whatever.

story you got a gloom and doom. Four corners of the universe seem to be troubled, and that's usually what we end up talking about. So it can be depressing. But I'm doing fine, and I hope you can say the same. We've been talking week after week after week about the latest on Russia and Ukraine, and I saw some hint of suggestion because Trump apparently had a meeting with Zelensky when they were overseas that CRIMEA might be under consideration, that Zelensky might not have that red line

in the sand. I'm not going to give an inch of my territory up. But crime has been taking over by Russia now for twelve years. Barack Obama let it happen, and it's been that way, and that seems to be part of sort of a foregone conclusion and all of our prior conversations you talk about zelensky lack of willingness to concede any territory. Does he think that he can

somehow get back CRIMEA. I mean recognizing the relative negotiating powers that we've talked about, and that he doesn't have a whole lot of power on his side at the negotiation table. I gotta tell you, Brian.

looking at things reality. That's one of the reasons why I think that President Trump just has to make whatever decision he thinks is best for the United States because he doesn't have a genuine partner on the Ukraine side to come up with some kind of rational plan that they can present as a as a unified side along with Europe in their negotiations with Russia.

and let you guys figure it out for yourself, because if you're not gonna listen to sam any kind of common sense, then I can't do anything for you anyway. And that'll be a He'll come under a lot of pressure from that for President Trump, but only those who are also not willing to look at reality.

do you god, I mean, what is your argument? I mean, your people are being slaughtered on the battlefield, and I'll admit that some of the Russians, and I guess North Koreans as well at this juncture, are being slaughtered as well, but not the degree the Ukrainians saw are they're running out of people to fill the ranks in the military. This has been going on for quite some time. Meanwhile, the slaughter goes on, Zelensky's in an untenable position and

yet won't acknowledge it. I guess I just don't understand why didn't somebody just sort of throttle him.

Zelenski is not in a normal position. And I think that his situation is exacerbated further and alarmingly so by leaders in Europe because instead of throttling him, as you just put it, they instead encourage him.

I mean they're feeding into it. So there's a much bigger problem, quite frankly, going on in the Western world right now, which complicates this greatly.

have enough, they can't actually do it. But they're still talking about this and encouraging Zelenski forward, which has the perverse effect that you just laid out there, getting more Ukrainian slaughtered in and pointing this battle they can't win and they just won't come to graps with reality.

Because this the Russians are continuing to go forward. Russia gained twenty seven square kilometers of territory in the last twenty four hours, so their advances are accelerating, and now more Ukrainian people are put at risk, and there's more flight going on inside the country, and you keep seeing that over and over, and you just got to ask yourself, how much worse does it have to get before you finally come to a recognition that the war can't even

be stopped much less one. But unfortunately, it looks like that there is no end inside and so that means this by definition, Russia will eventually conquer what it wants on the ground, aside from the negotiation because they don't have a partner that they feel they can discuss it with.

rhinews shield that's coming up. I hope you can stick around.
