5-29-24 Gary Jeff in for Scott Sloan

Do you want to be an American idiot? Ah the replacement idiot once again manning the airwaves in this timeslot, the sacred airwaves of seven hundred WLW. Garry Jeff Walker in for Scott Sloaney today until noon, a full lineup of guests. We've got some time for you and I to chat as well, anytime in the next three hours, but specifically at eleven o'clock right now. No guest, so that would open up the phone lines so you can tell me what you really think of me. I'm hoping that Robert de Niro will

phone in because I want to hear him read from his script again. When you're an actor, aren't you supposed to memorize your script? Anyway? Our first guest today is one of my favorite people on the planet, and that's including my wife and a few precious friends that I have. And we've only ever discussed anything on the radio or on the telephone. We've never met in person. She is an author and actor. I would assume adansa. I

don't know. I know she sings. She is a professional skeptic and occasionally a talk show host and occasionally a guest of mine on my programs. Karen Katileen, everybody, KK, good morning, how are you? Hey? Good morning Gary, Jeff Walker, how why are you doing good? We were talking about doing this show several weeks ago, and specifically the date May twenty ninth is special to you because it was your mother's birthday. Is that correct? Yes, actually it is. It is today's my mother's birthday.

She's no longer with us, and she shares the birthday with John F. Kennedy YEP Senior and Bob Hope. Fantastic. You want to talk about an incredible, you know, triad of people. We're you know, it's the it's the trinity of Karen Katalene's mom, Bob Hope, and in one time President of the United States. All of them have passed, but we can revel in the fact that they were here and their legacy that all of those

still live on. Definitely, and I said there was one of there was one o. Their common bond with you and and your with your mother and Bob Hope besides sharing a birthday my wife when she was a little girl, and Bob Hope spent a lot of time in Cincinnati at some little restaurant or bar in Silverton. Bob Hope was there and bought my wife a Shirley Temple? Is that the cutest? I mean, you want to talk about degrees of separation here and it being a small world, but I wouldn't want to

paint it and all of that. But still so anyway we have that. And is there anything that you specifically remember about your mom that lives with I mean, obviously there are probably tons of things, but what sticks out in your mind first when you think about your late mother, Karen? Oh my, this is a noted question. It is because in twenty twelve I wrote

a book that actually had a lot about my mother. It was said with insight and with respect and hopefully with some forgiveness, because people do the best they can. But I had a stage mother. My mother put me on the stage when I was three years old, and not coincidentally, she was put on the stage when she was three years old, and I guess I

think she thought that was the thing to do. So yes, I wrote a book called Fatlash, Food Police, in the Fear of Thin and in My Era, which preceded the John Bennet Ramsey story and preceded the child Beauty Pageant craze and criticism that happened around the time I put that book out. I experienced something similar and probably more benign in many respects than what we saw

in toddlers and tierras. But when parents lived through their children, they forget the age appropriateness of the child because well, to get a little mental healthy on you, because they do have an MSW from the great Conservative School of Glumbia University. Mind you, parents mothers. Often children are a narcissistic extension of their parents. Sometimes that's why you get in varying degrees. And I know I'm getting down the rabbit hole here soccer moms, no baseball dads and

that kind of thing. But yeah, as you're saying this, I'm thinking about all of the helicopter dads who are like pushing their kids in sports every day. And and there are probably some listening right now and thinking, well, you know, just trying to show the kid there's more to life than than school work, and you know, and and it gets really really oppressive sometimes for the kids and they don't understand it. This happened, Yes,

forgive me. It's complex because parents do have hopes and wishes and dreams for their kids. Sure, and that's understandable, but they're varying degrees of that. They're varying levels of that. And when you have, you know, kind of own show dog, shall we say, Yeah, putting kids in beauty pageants, that's a good time. Getting that they're only five instead of twenty five, then you get this inappropriate sexualization of children. Cut to the

chase. That's one of the reasons why I am so very sensitive to the mass psychosis we're seeing today telling the world that there are trans children and at the same time, notice the segue, at the same time, teaching little kids that there is no boy and there is no girl, so that there is a growing social contagion of gender dyswaryan gender confusion. That's also a narcissistic extension being placed on children because you know, you see a lot of moms

that they're not soccer moms, in beauty pageant moms or dads. They're political moms who use their children for a political agenda instead of allowing their children to grow up naturally, to go through the stages to be children of development and allow their kids to decide what they stand for. And it's quite brazen and

blatant today. And I guess, since I could go on for three hours and I won't, I should say that I did make peace with my mother, maybe after the fact, and yet it's kind of a blessing in a way that I had probably, as I say, a more benign experience, although it affected me greatly, and it was a blessing because it enabled me to do a lot of self exploration and learn that being an individual was important to me. It's probably why I'm not a radical leftist today. Well,

here number of reasons, I would say. Foremost is the fact that you've got a functioning brains while you're not a radical left just today. But I was. I was struck by how in the sixties they were preaching to us about individuality and doing your own thing and make your own music, and now they're all marching in lockstep together. Oh, we've got We've got a guest on actually after you after the News at nine thirty named Aaron McIntyre has written

a book called The Total State, How liberal democracies become tyrannies. And I can't I can't wait to chew into that conversation. But back to you, No, it's fine. I think I was done. I tried to to uh uh, you know, it make it more succinct than it really is. You talk about this whole, this whole trans movement, and how parents are you know, misguidedly pushing their children into, uh, this non binary kind of world when children pretty much live in a non binary world anyway,

up to a certain age, up to puberty. If they put them on puberty blockers, then they have no idea what's going on or who they are, who they want to be. And by the time they've had the mutilating surgeries and they're eighteen and nineteen, their lives are ruined. It's way too late. But it goes through every fiber, every threat of our society, Karen, now, because it's all about the language that is used, and

that goes beyond pronouns. But let's start there. I was watching a Reds game and sorry, sorry rein Hart and the rest of you programmers here at seven and we are the home of the Reds, and we've got a game coming up this afternoon at one ten, which we'll be caring of course. But I was watching on TV and the lead announcer as one of the ball boys snagged just a scream and shot down the left field line. That was a foul I mean, great catch. The kid made a great catch.

A couple of innings later, the kid who down the right field line also made a great catch and a foul ball that came screaming at him. I mean, just like, put me in, coach, I'm ready to play. And the announcer said, a couple of great plays by the ball folks. I never heard them called ball folks ever in my life. I mean, if it's a ball girl, it's a ball girl. If it's a ball boy, it's a ball boy. There is a difference, and this

is what they wanted to think it is. And the difference in all of this is that it's the social promotion, yes, of deleting gender while at the same time claiming you're a feminist and you don't know what one a woman is. It's really designed to drive lesser mentally well people crazy. I say that was some you know, a tongue in cheek, but thank you,

Judge Brown Jackson. When you have a culture that is that is dictating unreality to you, to tell you that you're not even supposed to know the difference between boy and girl, by the very seeing people who have been lecturing us about women's rights and women having equal pay and Billy Jean King can play as well as all of that, only to lead up to there is no boy and there is no girl, the fact that people can jump on and off

these bandwagons that are totally contradictory. Where are the me too people today? I mean, yesterday it was women being abused because someone says something to them, and today it is it's okay to engage in gang rape as long as it's an Israeli, as long as it's a Jew. I mean, there is no end to this mass psychosis of changing people's values willy nilly and people

jumping on that bandwagon. I think the good news is people are finally getting whiplash and saying, hey, wait a minute, what are you saying this is? This is crazy and what's your motive in trying to change trying to create group think that we're that you know, the moon is is turquoise and the grasses is red. I mean, they basically want to create an alternate universe and some people sadly are buying it, maybe because they don't know who

they are. Oh, you know it doesn't mean we all have to think alike, but it does mean it's really a good idea to think for yourself. Like the NIH tried to convince everybody that COVID came from bad soup, and when they were conducting the gain of function research in the lab at Wuhan the entire time and lied about it and then tried to cover it up.

The house right now is accusing the NIH, Morantz and Fauci of dodging the Record's request because they even stated in these emails and texts they found but we can get around for you this way, you know, and and and the people will be looking for this evidence, and we have back channels, and you know, it's the same thing. It's overwhelming in its enormity. I

know that's a lot of adjectives. But what is so interesting to make sense of it, in my humble opinion, is you notice that all these hoaxes and all this unreality is coming from people on the bandwagon, and the same, the same usual suspects are buying into all of it at the same time or promoting it. The promoting that the whole country is a racist kind of tree, which is a hoax and wrong and people who live in America lie, No, it's wrong, and it's it's a smear and a lie.

Uh and and there's so many of these ideas that are all being promoted by the same people. Did you notice how almost immediately as if overnight, first we were told that if we didn't put a rag on our face, we'd be killing grandma, and not a few nano seconds later, certain governors around this country were sending COVID into nursing homes and killing grandma's. Okay they yet, Oh, oh, forgive me, not that I'm getting wound up like a cheap watch. But what about Oh god, I just lost it.

I do that. I get so excited that I forget it happens to me too. But you're right. It is one of those things that they always are doing. What they're accusing someone else of doing is every time. Okay, I remembered it. If you have time, simply that the same people that have been their mantra, their mantra for decades. My body, my

choice, get the government out of my ovaries. And suddenly when the government dictates, forces, coerces, and demands that they take an experimental shot, you better do it or we're firing you, we're canceling you, and you're killing people because you're willing to put yourself at risk for a shot that promises that you won't be at risk. But now you're the bad guy because you're going to infect people who who supposedly are protected. That kind of crazy making

logic. People actually bought into it. It's a pandemic of the unvaccinated really, so that means if you're vaccinated and you're you're confident that you're protected, why are you demonizing people who took a risk not to be well? And the truth completely, Yeah, the truth of the matter is the more times you were vaccinated, the more likely where you were to get COVID and the studies have borne that out. Karen, thank you so much. We're out

of time, but my gosh, you're wonderful. H you are so Karen Katalen dot Cam All right, bye, babe. Breaking then back on seven hundred WLW. It's nine to twenty five. I'm Brian from one eight hundred. God John, We're a full service junk removal company. We come with it. Ah. Here we are back again. Garry Jeffen for Slowey Today on seven hundred WLW. The elevator bumper music kind of threw me. I thought maybe it was another intro to a spot, since there were so few

of those. Our guest in this half hour's a guy named Aaron McIntyre, host of The Aaron McIntyre Show. He's a columnist for Blaize News and is the author of the new book The Total State, How Liberal Democracies become tyrannies, I e. What we've been witnessing and what we're living through right now.

In twenty twenty four America, he was journalist and he saw firsthand the manipulation of news events, the bias of the press, relentless assault on truth during Donald Trump's presidency, and that's when it really came to the fore, when it really became obvious to me as well. But then we had the pandemic, and in the description it says his worldview is irrevocably shaken. And I share that feeling as well, and shared it then and still feel like

my relationship with my government will never be the same again. The question is how do we fix it. I don't know if there are any answers in this new book, but maybe he has some answers for all of us individually. Aarn McIntyre. Hello, welcome to the Scott's Loan Show. I'm Gary Jeff Walker. It's a great to have you as a guest this morning on seven hundred WLW. What's going on? Hi, thank you so much for

having me appreciate it. Yeah. So, in the book The Total State, How liberal democracies become tyrannies, this is probably the best description of what we've been living through and the things that are our founding fathers and the writers of the Constitution tried to safeguard us against. Was the total state, this centralized form of unaccountable bureaucrats and everything else that we've seen, especially in the last four to five years in this country, and how it's taken control.

And it's more than just Trump derangement syndrome. It's about control. I think they used Trump derangement syndrome as a tool to steer us into that self control, into that manipulation of the facts and the news. Your thoughts on that, No, absolutely, I think, like you were just saying, you

were outlining. I had a similar journey where I was working as a journalist and I had grown up as a talk radio conservative listening to Rush Limbaugh and go in my Civics class and understanding that the Constitution, the Bill Wrights, separation of powers, all these things were enshrined by the founders to stop the advance of the government, to hold back tyranny, and of course the press was supposed to be a part of that. Now, I had been a

conservative for a long time. I knew that the press was biased, but ultimately I believe that it served as a check against what was happening in the government, what we kept people accountable. But when I was working as a journalist during the Trump administration, I saw that really it seemed like every journalist has an agenda to go out and manipulate facts, manipulate stories, sometimes outright

lie. While I was in the press gaggle watching them just lie about what a politician was saying in order to manipulate things and turn them against Trump. And this is my first sign that things were not going well, that the constitutional order was not being protected by a free press. And then once we hit twenty twenty, kind of all my other illusions about American institutions and how they were constrained by the Constitution started to be torn away. You know,

the churches were closed, the strip clubs were open. We weren't allowed to go to funerals of family members, but the Democrats were allowed to riot in the streets and burn things down and drink champagne. After Joe Biden is selected, and all of a sudden, it became very clear to me that while the Framers might have created a constitution that restricted power at the time, something

had happened. There had been a seismic shift in the way that our social order had been created, so that so many of those restrictions had been circumvented. And the total state is really my story about that intellectual journey, the different thinkers and different ideas I explored better understand how power had circumvented the restrictions that our founders had created. Well, I think one of the one of the things we need to look at as a country, as citizens is somehow,

some way dismantling the centralized form of government that we have. And I'm not talking about an all out revolution. It would seem like an all out revolution or an insurrection to those inside Washington, DC's beltway, because they want to hold on to power at any cost. And we've seen that with the Democrats and their persecution and now prosecution of Donald Trump. You know, people don't like our policies, were behind in the polls. We got to make

sure we're the only thing on the ballot that people will vote for. But to decentralize the government, to break up Washington, to start to dismantle these bureaucracies that basically do nothing but spend other people's money, like the Department of Energy and the Department of Education, and moving some of these agencies out of Washington, DC. Is that an answer? I mean, if we could do it, would that help? I think that's the beginning of an answer.

I think that you're right that ultimately centralization has become the problem. But I think we have to examine. What I try to do in the book is examine why we allow to happen, why even conservatives were complicit in this

process. You're exactly right that a lot of people would look at a return to constitutional government as the Founder's intended, as a revolution, because ultimately, even most of the very serious and responsible conservatives that we see in Washington, DC, than ever Trump guys, or even some of the Trump guys, are so desperately bought into the bureaucracies and the systems, the idea of a neutral agency that will dictate from on high with experts how we should go ahead

and operate the country. They're so obsessed with that idea that they can't imagine the government being run once again by actual statesmen, by people who are making decisions based on the good of the people and the will of the people, and not so much based on the idea that there's some kind of morally neutral,

institutionally correct response to any given technocratic application of policy. And so, while I think you're right that moving these agencies, breaking up these agencies, creating less of a centralization into one geographic area, is a good start to ultimately what we have is an underlying mentality that we apply to all of governance that drives us towards this of centralized rule by experts and faceless bureaucracies. All right, Well, I'm looking forward to reading the book The Total State.

How liberal democracies become tyrannies. It's something that I have thought and in lockstep with you, by the way, pretty much through the whole process of the Trump presidency and through the what I call the scamdemic and all the lies that were being fed to us as truth by the media, and the media is a is a big part. I mean it's an arm not just to the Democrat Party, but it's an arm of the total State party, I guess for the sense of our conversation here, Aaron McIntyre, thank you so much

for being on the show today. Thank you so much for having me. Yeah, good luck with the book. It's a nine forty five. We'll take a quick break and come back. Gary Jeffin Fersiloni phone lines five one three seven d D big one. Oh my goodness, what account the part

It's the raves in Cardinals today at twelve ten on seven hundred lul W and seven hundred lul w's live stream Model three ihard radiof wasteful Washington spending is driving up the price of everything in Ohio groceries, gas housing. Senator Shared Brown, a friend of mine and I decided a while back that it might be time, it might be time for all of us, all of us subjects who are dictated to by the climate terrorist on

TV and on the radio. That's right, certified meteorologist, meteorologist, that maybe we should find a way to file a class action suit against all of them. I don't know if this would include the National Center. Are just specific weather casters because constantly we are I wouldn't say lied to, but we

are misled by their proclamations of terror from the skies. They're constant, frightening drum beat of well, there's a fifty percent chance you could die today now, as we've seen in all seriousness in the past couple of weeks, in the last month, really the horrible weather, the storms, the tornadoes that have ravaged complete towns and taken lives. But I'm talking about on the everyday

basis. I'm talking about the run of the mill weather forecast that makes you up in plans to go to say you're river camp, or chances to be outside with the family and friends, just to do things in general, and you stop and they're steymied at the last moment because someone's on TV in front of a green screen with a weather pointer telling you about all of the dangerous hail and wind and thunderstorms and tornadoes that we quite possibly could get. There's

got to be a happy medium. There's got to be somewhere in between the scare tactics of the meteorologist, or as Gary Burbank used to say, media urologist, and giving you just sensible information the most likely case scenario. And I'm not saying that they don't try. But they've got all these weather models, all these computer models, they've got radar like they've never had radar before.

They've got all kinds of tools to meticulously forecast and predict the weather we are going to get, and yet so many times it's a hit or miss five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven thousand day. The lines are open during this, so please don't cut anybody off. But I thought maybe if a group of us, if we could prove cause say, prove that we have spent money just to have it wasted because the plans were canceled last minute. If we have lost work due to a faulty forecast,

don't we have a claim in court? People sue for anything and everything in our culture. Isn't it about time that we saw fit to do the weather forecasters or the meteorologists again, National Weather Service in Wilmington. They probably don't have deep pockets. I will tell you this, that is the number one expense at most local TV news departments. Have you noticed how many weather people there are on the roster and they get paid big bucks. I mean

the radio people. You know, we get the shaft compared to TV people when it comes to pay because we're not pretty enough to be on TV. I understand why, But I'm just telling you weather forecasters they make big coin to be wrong more often than they're right. How many times in the last couple of weeks, and thankfully the forecast of dire results were wrong. I mean I would rather them be wrong than be right when it comes to horrible

things things happening. On the other hand, if they scare everybody to stay inside, hunkered down into a sheltered place in the center of your house, I've been through tornadoes before, there's no picnic, I understand, And to actually warn us is that they look at that as their job. But I'm just saying, there's got to be some relief for the common schlub who has a picnic canceled after spending all kinds of money after uh, let's see Tim

from Mason, Hello, Tim? How are you? I'm just asking, is there a chance can we get a lawyer to possibly look into the case of against meteorologists in general, a class action lawsuit for lost wages and for any any other harm that they may have caused us financially by and by a wrong forecast. I mean, with with the amount of suing that we get, I think so, I mean, I've seen other cases, but you've got guys on Facebook that go out and fear monger and aren't even weather forecasters

out here that promote all this stuff. So I think you got a bunch of guys out there that got a good case to get something going. So, so what kind of fear mongering are you talking about? I'm talking about the climate terrorists terrorists on TV. I'm so well, they're even worse on They're even worse on Facebook. There aren't even mediologists. You've got one guy that's called Southwest Ohio Freaks that has followers that the guy just isn't even a

meteorologist that promotes it. So what exactly is he promoting? Is he promoting death and mayhem? Absolutely from Mother Nature's wrath? Yep, yep, he's a he's not even a real meteorologists. He just puts out the weather stuff and has people, he has people actually pay him to do it too. So that's the worst part about it. But see, Tim, this is the thing. These people have degrees, they're certified, they went to school

for this. They have all kinds of the most you know, the up to date technology and tools, computers, they've got AI and they're still wrong. I just thought, I don't understand. I don't understand how you could be that wrong about Is it not an exact science meteorology, I'm not sure. But if they can't predict what's going to happen tomorrow, how can they tell us that the ocean ocean levels are going to rise six inches and twenty

years and we're all going to be underwater. That's my question. Thank you for the very very well for participating in the phone conversation. Tim from Mason, not to Tim for Mason. I used to talk to that guy. Was really cool. But anyway, my whole thing is, and I've talked

with my friends, the Pisqually brothers about this. Maybe if you're a lawyer and you're listening, one of the odds that we could have some kind of class action lawsuit against the entire profession of meteorologists and Bob and Ludlow, well, there's about thirty seconds before news. So we'll see if we get Bob

and Ludlow on. But anyway, if there was an attorney listening, maybe chime in sometime between now and noon and see what the odd odds are that we could have standing in a court of law against the entire profession, because there's some deep pockets there and I'd like to get a little coin out of this nonsense. Everybody else is making money. Hey, Bob, you there,

I got five seconds? What you got? Hey, Jerry, Jeff, I thank you kind of like way off base here to sue these folks, because one that's just a sue happy thing, and I think that's crazy. But I think the Wetomen do a pretty good job. They pretty much, I would say about ninety percent get the weather right, and the only

time they get it wrong is when it's when it's something dramatic. I don't know where you're getting your ninety percent, because it's nowhere close to that, Bob, maybe forty percent if that, And I don't think that's enough a break and then back Tony Lyons joins us on the line afterwards.

with the ten o'clock report to Rick Huchino breaking now. Tuesday was a marathon day of closing arguments in New York defense attorneys and Donald Trump's criminal hush money trial, casting a shadow over the credibility of the key witness for the prosecution, Trump's former attorney Michael Cohen, calling him the greatest liar of all time.

Prosecutors, meantime, detailed what they called a mountain of evidence they claim shows the former president committed a crime by falsifying business records to cover up a payoff of adult film actress Stormy Daniels in twenty sixteen. Prison time is theoretically possible. The felony counts carry up to four years in prison, but almost certainly, should it go that way, it would not happen right away.

Trump would undoubtedly seek to appeal and seek to delay his sentencing as long as possible, so it's not like he would be automatically remanded into custody like some violent felon. The reality is is that if he is convicted as a non violent, first time middle offender, the likelihood of prison time is very very small. ABC's Aaron Katski.

I know you're extremely busy this morning because a lot of people besides me read this piece that you published yesterday, and basically we're talking about the May third truck breaching attack at Quantico where there was a Jordanian illegal immigrant and another Jordanian who had long since had his student visa expire and they posed his Amazon drivers. People will remember this story from the beginning of the month. It was

kind of a mystery as to what was really going on here. But in this piece you call out what was really going on here, the first terror attack on this nation really since nine to eleven that you could call a terror attack. So explain if you can, right, you know, from a border crossing. Yes, so this is a Jordanian who crossed the border, got in with another Jordanian and a big box truck on May third, and tried to ram it into Quantico, a reading core base where also there's the

FBI and military intelligence and lots of other highly symbolic targets for jihadis. The question that everybody wants to know about this is whether there was a terrorism motivation. That question has been asked of Ice, of the Marine Corps, Department of Defense, of the FBI, and of the White House. None of them will this is very unusual, will rule it out, say it's absolutely not, or we're investigating that. We've got the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force.

Now this is very telling to me because always since nine to eleven, when there's some ambiguous attack like this, they'll at least give the American people the courtesy of saying that much, Yes, we are investigating this as a terrorism incident, or no, we are ruling it out, or we are at least looking at it and we haven't figured it out yet. In this case, it's blank total silence on the question, on the big T question.

And what I'm arguing in my New York post piece and also another one at cis dot org similar is that all of that indicates to me that the administration absolutely knows this was motivated by a terrorism interest, that this was probably a Jihavist attack, and I just decided that I'm going to call it for what it is because I believe that that's what this was based on sort of inductive logic. Unfortunately, we have to kind of fall back on that kind

of reasoning in the absence of any kind of information. So that's what I'm doing. I'm just I'm concluding, and I challenged the administration or anybody else to prove me wrong. I would be happy to have new information that proves me wrong, but I don't believe that the American people will ever see any such information because I'm right, this was a terror attack. And that's significant because this would be the very first one that has ever been attempted by somebody

who illegally crossed the southern border. In this particular mass migration crisis. We've been warning about this. The DHS has warned about it. The FBI director has warned about it, that this border crisis is a national security threat. And if they don't acknowledge it, which is one of my main arguments,

then how can we ever expect them to fix it? Which means that we're in store for more of these certainly, And you think that the reason that Biden and is people won't acknowledge this first ever border crossing terror attack is all about political aims at the expense of public safety. Because all the recent polling shows that the border crisis, immigration is a big hot button issue and has Biden trailing in those polls. Yes, this is the Biden campaign's major achilles

heel, the border crisis. If he's going to lose, he's going to lose in large part on that issue. He messed it up, he caused it, and now we're having terror attacks. And if he or his people were to actually acknowledge that that's what Quantico was a terror attack by a border crossing illegal immigrant, all the major media would have to cover it. Donald Trump would take this to the televised debate next month. This thing would just

become a huge It would just sinking. And they know it. And that's why they are just hoping, of Ben's hope that the whole story just goes away, that everybody just forgets about it, and that they're not going to give the media or people like me any leeway whatsoever to keep this thing in the headlines. I think that's really what this is all about. From the Center for Immigration Studies, Todd Bensman Man, You've done so much great work

over the last six seven years. Also the author of a book called Overrun was originally America's covert border war, and it's it's in full flagrante right now, and it is unabated by an administration and a president who could simply with the stroke of a pen and sign a couple of executive orders that he said he was going to and he never did to stem the flow of all of these unvetted illegals coming across our border, many of them with not so not

so good intent for the United States of America. Todd, thank you for your time today. I know you're booked up. Thank you you. Bet Tony Lyons, the president and publisher of Skyhorse Publishing. Coming up next trending now on news Radio seven hundred w l waiting on the jury. They now

have the criminal case in New York against former President Donald Trump. Defense is asking for a quick verdict not guilty of latestep dot com and bottom of the hour breaking news at once News Radio seven hundred w LW starting this Saturday, Genesis turns the laws of finance upside down with zero point zero interest financing on

all right now. Tony Lyons, who was the president publisher of Skyhorse Publishing, an attorney and a co founder of a super pack supporting RFK Junior in his bid for the presidency in twenty twenty four, Tony Lyons, thank you for your endurance and patients, and welcome to the show. Yeah, thanks

for having me on. You're a big proponent of free speech, so I got to ask you, aside from all these efforts to get RFK Junior on the ballots in all these states and to make make it to the CNN's standards of that first presidential debate, you had to be abhorred at the gag order that was put on President Trump during his trial. Weren't you if you're a free speech advocate, Yeah, definitely. I mean I think that the that the d n C is playing all kinds of political games to stifle debate and

dialogue. And you know they're doing it by trying to keep Bobby Kennedy off the ballot, by trying to keep him off the debate stage, by trying to silence Trump. You know, this is not the way that the political process is to both you know, is meant to go in a democracy. And yeah, so I agree that I see it on all sides. Uh where are we as far as Uh, you got ballot access in California far I have for Bobby Kennedy. Uh, where are we standing in Ohio for

example? Yeah, So he's he's doing great in the sense that he's on the ballot I think now in ten states and and then there are another almost a dozen where he's either got all the signatures that he needs or he's very close but they haven't been validated yet. So he's going to have enough signatures to be on the ballot in enough states to get two hundred and seventy electoral

votes by June twentieth, which is you know what CNN asks for. You know, the fascinating thing is that neither Trump nor Biden will because they won't

be on the ballot in any state till their conventions. So it's you know, it's kind of just another type of censorship that they're making all of these rules and then they're changing the rules, and they recognize, you know, CNN recognizes that they made a mistake that Bobby Kennedy is the only of the three candidates who's actually going to be on the ballot and you know, you

know, meet the criteria for ballid access that they've said. Well, this is nothing new, though, Tony, because in twenty twenty, as you will remember, in the presidential election, states were just changing the rules willy nilly in the middle of an election as far as how the votes are counted

and who determines the winners. In those states Pennsylvania, a judge just autonomously decided, well, the legislature's supposed to decide, but I'm going to decide how this goes down and how the election can Twenty twenty was such a mess with all the mail in and the absentee ballots. So it's not the first

time that they changed rules in the middle of the game. They've been doing this for a while, sure, and this time it's even worse because this time what you have is is the big tech platforms colluding with the President of the United States and his team to censor people. So you know, we've filed suit. We're suing Meta and Instant and Zuckerberg, all of them for

interfering with Bobby Kennedy's free speech. So we made this thirty minute film that kind of tells Bobby Kennedy's real story, so you know, cuts through all the censorship and the propaganda and tells his story in a way that I believe is really honest and compelling. And Facebook was sending messages to users warning them not to repost it, not allowing them to view it, telling them that

if they posted it, they could be kicked off the site. You know, so all of these things, telling people that it contained sexual content. So they were doing everything that they could to keep people from watching this film. And you know, it's part of a pattern that as soon as Biden came to power, he was writing emails to big tech platforms and specifically to

Meta and asking them to take down Bobby Kennedy's posts. Been doing this all along, and it's just such an insult to the American people and to democracy, and it really just has to stop. And it's part of this,

you know, sort of overall assault on democracy in this country. So I think that twenty twenty four is really just going to be a mess in that the tactics are so comprehensive and they're so hard to fight, and that all these lawsuits now that are percolating that I think are really going to let the American people know what's going on. But these are just all different forms of

election interference. So I understand, and it's clear to me that I think that Robert F. Kennedy Junior, if he's on the ballots in and of states and you guys are successful and getting him on a debate stage or whatever, he can have a real impact on the twenty twenty four election. But what's and Tony's gone apparently. I just wonder what the pass to the White

House is for RFK Junior. I don't think there is one. I think he can definitely take votes away from Biden, probably if you were away from Donald Trump, but there's no real path for him to unless they could throw it into there. He is back again, ller Tony, we lost you there. And my question at the end of this was, what is the path for RFK Junior to the White House. Yeah. So you know, I think that the recent polling shows that seventy percent or more of the American

public doesn't want to vote for Trump or Biden. And so I think that if you look at that, that's never been true in modern US history, that there's never been a case like that. And if you wop out Biden with Bobby Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy actually in two recent polls, beats Donald Trump. And if you swap out Bobby Kennedy for Donald Trump, Bobby Kennedy beats Biden decisively. So you know, there's a lot going on here and it's very hard to know how it's going to play out. But Bobby Kennedy is

definitely a very serious candidate who can win the election. And if you take the censorship out, and you take all the political games out, and you know, specifically, if you took away some of the three billion dollars that the DNC is going to spend trying to rig this thing, you know, then I think you could get an outcome where Bobby Kennedy just wins outright, that he gets thirty four percent. Well, I wish you will in your

endeavors. I can't say that I'm an RFK junior supporter, but very interesting to see another Kennedy in a presidential race for certain Tony Lyons. Good luck with your super pack and your efforts to get him on the ballots and get him on the debate stage, and we'll see what happens. All right, Yeah, thanks so much. You got it a breaking back. Austin Elmore

joined this after the noon. Apparently our next guest does not like this walk up music, this bumper music, but apparently other people think it's funny. And it all stems from a story he told on the air. Did you tell that story on the Scott's Loan Show? I did, Yes, I told her on a couple of shows. How long ago did you tell the story? Because I find it compelling As you were telling me during the news break, it was probably a year ago. Oh you know McConnell tells his

his Christmas story where he's locked out her every year. Yeah, I mean, maybe it's time for you to tell me the story because Austin Elmore is in the studio here for a visit on the Scott Sloan Show. Gary Jeffen for Slowney Today, and you kind of would giving me the thumbnail of what had happened. That was the genesis of you having Bubba Sparks, Yeah, Miss New Booty right as your theme music. So you'd like to hear the

story, I would like to hear the story. So for those of you who've heard this before, indulge me, because so it was a year or so ago. I pulled onto my street and in front of me was kind

of this raggedy taggety old car. It's kind of a narrow street. Cars are parked on both sides, and get about just past where you pull onto the street, past the light, and the car in front of me stops and in the road, in the middle of the road, and all four doors swing open, and music is blaring extremely loudly, some hip hop music, a lot of beats, a lot of you know, excitement, and out of the vehicle jumps four to five, maybe six women who's not you're

gonna say clowns. No, no, that's what I thought was happening at first, Women that are well in doubt on their backsides, we'll say that way, and they begin they got the beduncan, they've got big butts, and they've got short shorts on and there's there's a lot of skin, and they begin twirking violently all over the street. They are on the side of the car. At one point a woman jumps on top of the car. So this is a flash mob of large bootied women twerking correct in the middle

of the street. In the middle of the street, and I think in the early evening, like it was maybe six o'clock at night, And there's a park to the right, and there were some people there that matched the same description of those who exited the vehicle. And a woman comes running over to join them, and she was so excited that her breasts were falling out of her shirt. So there's just skin everywhere and they are just throwing ass all over the place. How long did this go on? This last?

And so I'm I'm trying to go home, gart If I can't pull to the right, I can't pull to the left, I can't back up. There's just booty everywhere, as the song says, and uh, this lasted for three or four minutes before finally I think another car like moved and I was able to pull around, but they did not like it was. Were you frightened? No? No, this sort of behavior in my neighborhood is not all that uncommon. It was ID been petrified. No, I was

appalled more than anything else. Like, it was just the the sheer level of excitement that they had was special. So was there and so from that point forward Scott plays that song it was. Was there ever any point in this instant where you thought, you know what, I'm want to throw in park and I'm gonna go join them? No, No, I don't know how that would have been received. Why. I just don't think that that would have been something they would have been interested in. I don't quite have

the same assets as them. I would have brought them down, huh. Yeah. But if you had come with the same enthusiasm, perhaps Austin, they might have welcomed you with open arm. From my experience on Planet Earth, Gary Jeff, twerking is not just something you do. It's a skill, like you have to really be good at it. And I really didn't want to offend them by poor twerking or anybody else around me. I also didn't have booty shorts on, so there's nothing I really would have fit the

description. There's nothing about twerking that I find artistic to be honest with you, but we haven't seen enough talking in your life. Then, well, is nothing artistic about board poor Andrew Abbott last night? Well his outing for the Reds. You know, after a fourth straight win and the first against the Cardinals on Monday, then we had last night and it fell apart fairly. I mean hung in there for a couple of innings, but after that

the Cardinals were just bludgeoning the poor red starting pitcher. Yeah, it seven to one before you knew it. Yeah, got the seven to one kind of. I don't know if he just kind of ran out of gas. And he had a couple of extra days of rest, so I thought maybe

he would be fresh. But the thing about this particular game is that the Reds didn't kind of use the strategy or the path they'd used over the last four When the Cardinals scored, it took the Reds two innings before they were able to answer, and by the time they did answer, they were still

down two runs. The offense was an emack last night. They didn't put any pressure on Saint Louis whatsoever, so once they were able to get out to a lead, all the pressure shifted onto the Reds, who were struggling to get hits, struggling to get base runners were no hit through the first five innings of the game. And that's the thing that's been frustrating about the team this year is there's those moments where they play like that for four games

and they're not afraid of a deficit. They put pressure on the opposing team. They play good, clean baseball, and then they'll play a game where offensively it looks like they've never seen major league pitching before, and that can be really frustrated. Every time I see them explode with like the nine to six game, you know, over the Friday, I guess every time I see that, I go, man, did they just waste all the runs they had in him? For the next week? Because you know that those

offensive explosions have been few and far between this year for this team. And again, if they get on base, they got a chance to score every inning because they're so aggressive and they're so fast, man demand on base and they can cause so many problems for the opposing team's pitcher and defense with their

running. You know, the leader in steals in all of major leagues, right, Yeah, they do. But that's the thing they haven't been stealing a lot of basses because they haven't had a lot of guys on price. And you can't the old Billy Hamilton disease, you can't steal first base, right, that's that old saying is you can't steal first base. Poor Billy Hamilton became the fastest player in the Major League from the batter's box to the

dugout. Yes he did. And you know that's the other thing. They've just struck out so much it's crazy, Like the strikeout percentages is way high. Uh, they're not putting the bat on the ball as much as they need to be. And you know, last night was really confusing because Kyle Gibson is a guy who they had many of those guys had seen before and had a lot of success against, but for whatever reason, they couldn't seem

to touch Kyle Gibson. Uh So, Yeah, those moments of frustration have happened a lot this year for this team, and a part of it is a lack of health. Part of it is it seems like they don't have the right plan at the plate, and the first four games, or the last four games prior to last night, seemed like they were always doing the right thing, and night like last night, they weren't. It's frustrating.

Yeah, switch gears here a little bit Scottie Scheffler's I guess court appearance before we do that, Gary Joe. A good piece of information that just came through about the Cincinnati Reds playing here in a couple of hours. TJ. Friedel is back. TJ Friedels lineup. He's leading off today for the Reds. So there you go. There's some good news. Well, and maybe he's the spark to get them going and get this machine. Hurt the wrist in spring training, came back, played six games, broken thumb on a

hit by pitch. He's back. What is the deal with all of the hit by pitch this year for the Reds? Are they just crowding the plate or what's the deal with that? I do wonder if the scouting report on the Reds is they struggle with the inside pitch and so play and pitchers just more frequently go there. However, they're right around the league average of being hit by pitch. Problem is they keep getting hurt when they're hit by pitch.

They're hitting those bad spots, the thumbs, the wrists, the hands that cause guys to miss time as opposed to you know, on the back of the leg or on the shoulder or something like that. Well, Dave Bell was throwing a tantrum like a five year old, throwing chairs. To love that guy, Yeah, I do, just throwing chairs because he's so mad at how crappy things have been. I love when he just goes after an umpire. It's the best. I like David, but you usually you

don't see that kind of emotion out of him most of the time. Well, you know, since he's come into the big leagues, he's second in Major leagues in ejections, behind only Aaron Boom. David Bell for a while was losing his mind at umpires a lot. He's been a little bit more reserved as of late. But you know, I'm a big David Bell fan. I like it when he just loses his mind. Do you think that there is the remotest possibility the Reds get back into a position where they can

contend in the division by the All Star break. What has to happen and they have to win a lot. Obviously, they put themselves in a four hundred hole, you know, after after doing fairly well at the beginning of the season. You know, it was kind of a reverse of last year where they started three and ten or three and eight ten, whatever it was. Yeah, it was horrid. I do think that they can get back

to contention. It's not going to be easy. They need to be as far as I see it, they need to be at five hundred by the end of this month, and they play a lot of teams that are beatable. Pittsburgh, Chicago is playing terrible right now. They can win this series today against Saint Louis. There's a lot of division games coming up. If they can get to five hundred by the start of July, I like their

odds. The first thirteen games in July prior to the All Star Break, three of them are against the against the Yankees over fourth of July in New York, not going to be an easy series. But the next ten is a home stand against three of the worst teams in baseball. If the Reds can get five hundred by the beginning of July and then I don't know when eight of those games, nine of those games before the All Star Break,

they're certainly in contention. Well, it's a lot to ask for it again again, teams that are a team that's having obviously some power outages at the

worst times. I want to get back to Scotty Scheffler, who of course got arrested outside Valhalla during the PGA Championship on the Saturday morning round for, among other things, assaulting a police officer, criminal assault of a police officer because the guy thought he was a Starsky Hutch model, jumping on the hood of Scheffler's car or whatever, grabbing on the Scheffler's car because you know, he was a major threat to go around the traffic and be waived around like

other players had earlier that morning. You know, he's marked, he's in a player's only car, and they'd already let other players in past the traffic accident, and the first police officer Scotti Scheffler encountered told him to go up and around and through, which is what he was doing when he did that, and then the other guy stopped him. There was obviously a miscommunication from the officers there, and then Scotty probably drove a little bit longer than he

should have with this guy trying to flag him down. It was just a surreal situation. Yeah, if the charges aren't thrown out. I will be very surprised. Yeah, I think we're supposed to hear something about that today. Yeah, they were for today. Yeah, I have not heard anything yet. I haven't heard anything yet. I did see some body camera footage that came out earlier today that with the officer kind of questioning Scotty about his side of things. And it was not the officer that was drugged to the

ground, it was a different officer. And you basically hear Scotty say the exact story I just told you, and he said, I didn't think that that was a police officer trying to stop me, and then he just you know, put his arm in my window and like pulled my my arm and all that. And Scotty admits he's like, I should have stopped sooner than I did, but I didn't realize that was a police officer, and I

thought I was. I was given the good to go. But I'll tell you, his attorneys have been very very you know, you know, steadfast on the fact that we're not letting this go. We're not just going to settle or anything like this. We'll fight this. And I think they feel

like he didn't do anything wrong. That's what they feel. Well, the first blush, you hear the story and you don't know anything about it, and you think it's, oh no, this is another entitled golfer or somebody is a celebrity just thinking that they're above everybody else, and you find you you peel away the layers of that story and that's not the case at all.

Scotty Scheffler was very respectful and all all of those other things, and once they told him in that story might fit for some of the golfers on the tour, but when you think of like the person that Scotty Scheffler is the exactly opposite. If there's Tiger Woods, everybody would fee a little bit more believable that that happened, but Scottie Scheffler doing it no way. Did you have any take on the comments of Jammel Hill on Caitlin Clark. What

did Jamel Hill say? Uh, well, okay, you can't have a take if you didn't hear it. I didn't hear it. I don't really basically said attention to Hill basically said, and the thing is, Sonny Houston of the View said similar things about Caitlin Clark that she had white privilege and tall privilege. Caitlin Clark is not tall compared to other WNBA stars. And then she said she had pretty privilege. There's such a half heard of pretty

privilege. I've never look I love Caitlin Clark, but I've never looked at her as particularly you know, like a beauty queen. Sure, pretty privileged person. But Jammel Hill was saying that it's all it's all because she's white, and and just this nonsense. What all is because she's white? All the attention that she's getting and the fact that she had, you know, she actually got the WNBA to doing private chartered flights instead of flying commercial everywhere.

She's elevated the game and brought a lot more attention. And Jamel Hill's take basically was the reason that there's more attention than the WNBA is because Caitlyn Clark is white, and that's why she's popular. Most of Jamel Hill's takes are based off of race, which is a reason why I don't really pay much attention to her. I do agree that, you know, maybe if

it was someone else, there wouldn't be as much attention on her. But is the reason is the reason that Caitlyn Clark broke the scoring record because she was white? Is that what happened? If her Jammel Hill might might say that, Yeah, that would be my question. Is her god given ability to make shots and score and do all these things because she's white? That would be my question. Now all the other things, Maybe there's something there.

Maybe there is something about the attention and the endorsements and all that. Maybe so, but Clark put herself in that position because she's really good at basketball. Yeah. Absolutely. Austin Elmore, thank you, And I hope that. I hope you can remain booty free the rest of the day. Unless you know you're looking for something like that. The winds could change. You never know. Takes the twerk where you can find it. Always a pleasure, Gary Jeff, thank you, sir seven utter WLW keep your golf

game sharp at Robin's Nest? Do you want to be an American? All right? So the judge and the Trump trial in New York has been instructing the jury now for about the last hour, going over intented to fraud says it only has to exist at the moment of criminal conduct. Says, you

have to decide whether you believe the witnesses are not the jury instructions. Of course, the judge in this case, the Jan Marshawn character, who was obviously a Biden partisan, obviously hand picked for this to get has saying that his that his his hand has been on the scales of justice is one of the great understatements of all time. But anyway, the nation watches and waits

for a verdict. Will they convict a former president for the first time of some kind of criminal charges that they couldn't define what it was during the trial? Thirty four counts of charges related to hush money paid to a porn star to keep her quiet and that influenced the twenty sixteen election. How many people knew about Stormy Daniels before that show hands? The Stormy Daniels story been out there since twenty eleven. I don't know what they were trying to keep to

influence the twenty sixteen election. That's what this is all based on. It's based on the Democrats and the Biden administration wanting to take Donald Trump out of the picture. Everybody knows this is that okay with you? Though? That's the question because it's Trump. I know we've got a bunch of Trump haters who are actually on the air here at this station. I've heard them, and I have talked to plenty of people who can't stand Donald Trump, and

I've heard all their reasoning, and there's no reason. Really. They just don't like him. Oh he's a womanizer, Oh he's this, that, he's mean, he calls people names. And the reaction most of the time you get is like that of Robert de Niro, who was speaking for the Biden Harris campaign yesterday in front of the court room the courthouse they're in New York where the Trump trials going on, because that's where the cameras were,

and Joe Biden can't draw a crowd or cameras anywhere he's going. He's in Pennsylvania today campaigning like Donald Trump should be instead of sitting in court waiting for this kangaroo verdict that's about out. So if you're one of the people who just hates Donald Trump for Donald Trump, I'd love to hear from you and hear your reasoning. We'll probably have to dump you because you'll begin cursing like a washed up actor who couldn't speak off the top of the cuff. Yesterday

at his little press conference, only read from his loose leaf script. Guess he hadn't had time to memorize his lines. Judge evidenced that the defendant was present when others agreed on crime does not mean he's guilty. This is a judge, by the way, who said to the attorneys, the prosecution and the defense, don't talk about the law. I will talk about the law.

I'm the judge. I'm the man in charge. During Donald Trump's presidency up until COVID, grave misgivings about the way he handled that, the way he handled anything during COVID, and the fact that he was spending like a drunk sailor, like or giving the green light to spending like a drunk sailor, like every other president we've had up into and back to President Bush, the Clintons. So I have some problems with Donald Trump, but I know

what's going on now and what was going on then. What was going on during Donald Trump's presidency was unprecedented economic expansion, jobs, the prices. Look, they say, all politics is local. Nothing is more local than going to the grocery store. During Joe Biden's presidency, he says inflation was nine

percent. When he took office, it was one point seven percent. And food has gone up more than thirty percent since Joe Biden took office, and his administration's policies, regulations, and everything else he has done since he went into office, signing executive orders and the bills he has signed, has done nothing but increase inflation and make prices go through the roof. It takes some

calls here, Doug in Indiana, what's on your mind? Well? I keep hearing all this stuff about the Trump trial and Stormy Daniels and this and that. What have you do? You reckon Stormy Daniels taxes on that one hundred and thirty five thousand. I have no idea because everyone is innocent except Donald Trump exactly exactly. I can't believe that they had her on the stand

at this trial. The fact that whatever she brought to the table, including talking to dead people and describing the alleged triist with Donald Trump and embarrassing anecdotes from that alleged trist, alleged affair, none of it had none of it had to do anything with false business records, nothing exactly exactly. And that's why I don't understand why Mrshawn or whatever his name is, hasn't seen this as a mistrial. Well, no, but because he was hand selected to

do this, because of his ties to Biden and his family's tie. His daughter's tied her daughter, His daughter is making millions of dollars supporting the Democrats. So this is all this is all just a hoax. It's another hoax. It's another fake news thing put together specifically to target Donald Trump. Alvin Bragg, the man who brought these charges to the foe, the district attorney, ran on getting Donald Trump, just like Letitia James, the New York

State Attorney General, ran on getting Donald Trump. They're having the trial in Manhattan, where ninety percent of the people voted for Joe Biden. The prosecutor in the case was the third man at Biden's doj who was hand selected to prosecute this case in New York in a New York state court. They're trying to charge him with federal election crimes, which they have no jurisdiction over, on charges of falsifying business records that long ago expired. The statue of limitation.

It's all a joke. But it's not a joke. If they if they're doing it, particularly to knock out the political candidate that threatens theirs, and that's what they're doing. This is what third world countries do, Banana republics, and that's what we've become. Doug, thank you very much. Glenn in Cole Rain, Hello, good morning, Jerry Jeff. How you doing, sir? Doing fine? Why can't Donald Trump win? Man, He's just poisoned the well. I voted for Trump twice. I put out

campaign signs for him. He's poisoned the well amongst white women. And you can't win if you don't carry white women. He was a great guy man, and what he has done is he has gave us the perfect storm. Republicans and Democrats have just ruined this country and it's a game to him. Kennedy can win this election. I'm telling you, I'm one of his big supporters. Now. He's not a perfect guy, but he can pull the young people in that he needs to pull in. And he's being covered up

right now, but he has a huge following. He is so far he is so far left on these policies. The only thing I agree with Robert F. Kennedy Junior on the COVID nineteen vaccines and what a farce they are. That's the only thing I agree with, RFK Junior. You don't agree with him on pulling out all these foreign countries, and then I don't agree with him on the Green New Deal and all the climate garbage he believes. No, I don't. I don't disagree with that. But he's evolving,

you know, which is something you can't say Trump's ever done. He's still pushing his vaccine mandate and that Trump's not pushing the vaccine mandate right now, but he's still bragging about how great he did with operations at York Speed. Well, yeah, you gotta let that doll go. I agree with that, Glynn, no question about Trump. But I just don't think you can

win. I think we've got our we've got our once a two hundred year chance to get rid of Republicans and Democrats and get somebody in there that can do something. Man, if we don't jump on this, we're doomed. Brother. RFK Junior is a Democrat and independent clothing brother, and and good luck with that. Alan and Springfield, Hello, Hey, how you doing? Gary? Jeff Good You say Trump and Biden deserve everything they get pretty much yes, I did, because, first of all, Joe Biden's been

around way too long to be our president leader. He's been selling he's been he's been selling out the country for his entire fifty years, and elected office as a senator, as a vice president. We have the proof of that, right, right, and and and and the clowns on the Democratic side and the clowns on the Republican side. Donald Trump deserves everything he gets as well. Two things. January sixth, that's all on him, baby,

I don't care what you guys say. I listened to WLW since the mid eighties, and I'm tired of uh that you guys did the roundabout way you guys defend him. Sometimes you guys will criticize Donald Trump is junk, and I don't understand why you guys can't Trump. Okay, okay, tell me why he's junk. Don't just don't do it trump and just call him a name. Tell me why he's foremost, first and foremost. I'll tell you

first first, while he's junking. You won't agree. A lot of people don't agree with this, and I don't care about what people do too much outside of politics, but I would never vote for a man who said what he said on that dumb bus with that reporter. I would never vote for a man who said that I have daughters. I would never vote for a man like that. Okay, Number one, Number two, January sixth, People died? Who who died? Who died? Alan? Who died?

Who died? Trying to get in? The woman was shot by a veteran unarmed, an unarmed veteran who was actually trying to make sure that there was no more chaos or mayhem that went on, by an armed Capitol police guard who murdered her for no reason. No, I'm not nuts, That's exactly what happened. She was. They were trying to break in, they were busting she was already in, she was unarmed, and she was murdered by that Capitol police officer. Oh you're a nut like you are. Donald Trump

is junk, and I'm a nut. You're you're you're you're great, You're great at name calling. Go ahead, Well all's Willie does when he gets on here and repeat himself. He makes fun of Joe Biden and everything. Why won't you guys have something better to say than all the poor national media beating of us we're Republicans. Go after it, man, figure out a better attack mode. That is not working. Whining about the media. It doesn't work well. The media is an arm of the Democrat Party, plain

and simple. If you if you don't see that, then you're just blind. Alan. The mainstream media is an army. I see that. My point is, get over it, move on, figure the figure this out, man. I just the the beating back and forth. I mean, the disgrace of this country that we put up with people like AOC and Matt Gates. I mean, come on, what a bunch of jokes, and and yet people defend them, well, defend Donald Trump. I'll, I will, I will, I will go along with AOC. I mean joke

too. Why can't you say it because you're a Republican. No, I'm not a Republican. Actually, I called people how to I mean no, no, no, no, you know you're right, you're right if somebody is wrong. Marjorie Taylor Green, I just shake my head at that woman. Yeah. I think a couple of those people could, really they set their mind to it, be good representatives to their constituents. But they're all

just trying to grab the headline. I mean well, look at look at the look at what we've done just in the speakership in the last year, and then we could play a while. We can't get nothing done? Are you kidding me? Come on? Neither party wants to sit down work together now. Usually compromise in especially in this environment, just leads to giving in to the Democrats. That's what compromise, That's what their idea of compromise is

reaching across the Aisle Brian and Middleport. Real quick, what you got man? I just wonder I'm wondering how history going to record this whole devostle. I mean, how our kids, my grandkids are going to be taught. They're gonna be rereading about this history books to write the history books and what

what's it gonna say? I'm just carrious. It's an interesting question. Uh. Sadly we probably won't be around to see it, but uh maybe some of us will be around to help write it and make sure it's an actual account and not a slanted one side or the other kind of deal. John jari Ye, how are you? I'm fine? What real quick? John, I I'm up against the wall here. Yes, I'll be very brief. You're a last caller and I kind of I kind of call in,

uh right during their call talked about the January sixth. Now the person was shot, you're saying they were murdered. Look to me, it's a two way street. If you break into a building, whether if that woman broke in, I don't know, I didn't on the building. If you break in, if you're trespassing, in my mind, and you get shot, it's no different than the Antifa people breaking in and looting. They should have been shot, right, I don't have a problem with that, but the

break But the problem, But John, the problem is they weren't. And the pro Hamas terrorist who broke into that building at Columbia weren't shot. So it's it's it's about equal protection under the law and an equal playing field, and we don't have that right now in this country. And I think that's

a big issue. A breaking back seven hundred WLW all right in our final half hour, the kind of story sparks by an NBC reports this past weekend that bemoan the fact that states are tracking down on crime again because of course, looking back on the death of George Floyd four years ago, complaining in this report that Georgia added cash bail requirements for thirty new crimes this year. Like that's a bad thing, or that Oregon passed a bill recriminalized possession of

small amounts of drugs. They have absolutely had it in Oregon with the free Society of free flowing drugs. The story also bemoaned the fact that Republican Governor Ronda Santas had championed and signed several bills into law related to police measures, included in air quotes an anti rioting law that may curtail protests. The writers of that story at NBC the trend toward tough on crime indicates some of those efforts at change following the death of Floyd have stalled to talk about that and

more. Is law enforcement veteran. He is the founder CEO of invest USA. They provide bulletproof vests for police officers and first responders all across the country. Michael, Lets, how are you doing, my friend? I'm doing great. Always a person to be back with. Yes, great, great

honor. Thank you so much for the opportunity. In many cities that have adopted the no cash bail policies, the justice system has become a revolving door of recidivius crime and wonder of wonder, Georgia decided that that wasn't working for the law and order citizens of the state of Georgia, and so they have now reinstated cash bail for like thirty new crimes. What do you know about this particular story, Michael, Let me tell you. And there's another breaking

story right now just for this morning. It all ties in together. It

shows the tremendous struggle between good and evil. This country's base. Georgia did have prosecutors who were pushing the idea they were soils based prosecutor because the progressive prosecutors that felt like, you know, we didn't need to have cash fail that if you committed a crime, that you should just be able to be put back out on the street and ponder the mistake of your ways, and then of course they would find a lighter sentence and put you back on the

path. Well, the argument, the argument was that it discriminated primarily against minorities who did not have the money to post bail, so they would sit in jail for inorder the amount of times awaiting their criminal trial. So that's part of the reason they were in stated and you know put in place in the first place. But please, you're exactly right. That was that was part of it. But you know the other part was that they just felt

like we needed to do a number of things. We needed to get people back out on the streets, burden less than the burden of the tax payers that being cast freedom. So anyway, that's where it went for a little while, and then violent crime begin to spike up again. Why would it not when there's no consequences, there's no accountability. Well, we find out

that that liberal ideology, the progressive thinking, is still out there. Just this morning, Boston's mayor has now come out and said that they want to eliminate any penalties of theft, no more rest. You can steal freely in the town of Boston and not face any consequences. It's a really a perverted type of mentality when you think that if you remove the penalty for crime, as suddenly people are not going to do it anymore. I think they must

be being dropped on their hands more than times than they can count. You have that kind of philossi to begin with. Well, Michael, they can say that crime, crime is down because it's not a crime. It doesn't get reported. Yeah, you're exactly right. There is no crime because there's no there are no crimes to be committed. Unfortunately, the American populace is way too intelligent for that. We see right through it, and we see

what is happening. Never have we had such a spike in violent crime property crime as we're having now. And it's just amazing to me. We just had a case. We'll fixing the report on a few hours here or another illegal immigrant in Texas arrested im into Chicago, excuse me, ten times in a row. He's been arrested every month for our crime and put back down on the street every month. But for the last ten months has been a

crime he's committed. He's been arrested for and then released, arrested and released, no portion of deportation. We just put it back on the street. This is a mentality that this administration is trying to convince you and I that we should accept. This is progressive them, this is good for our country. I don't think anybody that's stupid to buy that anymore. I don't know

where they come up with this philosophy. Quite frankly, well, you know, it points out how right, Donald Trump was when he said and and he you know, signed executive orders and made a commitment to stemming the tide of illegal immigration in this country. He said, they're not sending us our best, their best and their brightest, you know, they're they're sending us.

And in the case of since Joe Biden has taken office, and we have this just flood of illegal immigrants coming in, unvetted, unovated, through our southern border, through all of our borders. We have uh prisoners, criminals who've been let out of the jails in Venezuela, and the Venezuelan and government says, yeah, go go to the United States. And why we

did not. We have terrorists from all different countries all over the world coming in and this current administration just with a nod new link says, well, they're going to be voters of ours someday. So it's all, okay, you're exactly right. You don't what's solazy. Just yesterday we picked up five thousand all the board. Okay, you need liberates more. These are the

ones we picked up, not the ones that get through a detective. You realize this is the first time out of the five pounds We picked up not a single one from Mexico. Eighty percent of them were from Iran, Syria, Jordan, terrorist states that have made a vow to destroy America. That's where the few Turkey, that's where these people are calling them from. And we sat here and we even interviewed some of them, and they looked at us and said, now we're here to work. Of course they're have to

defend themselves, but why would your country do this? Why would you let people just come in uh with disregard, no regard for what they're tenn is they even know better? And yet our administration can't seem to figure that one out. It just shows to me it's not stupidity. It's a plan maneuver to destroy the freedom, the liberties you and I enjoy doing that for some time. And quite frankly, what you saw the we started off this interview.

The media is their pulpit, and they are upset that the American citizens are saying enough to enough, we want people held accountable, and we're bringing back to holding people accounting for their actions. They're saying, hey, hell, this is supposed to work. They're supposed to let go on the street. It's supposed to be the right thing to do. Now the Americans are

rejecting that. The media is upset about it. Oh, there's a big media uh, you know, firestorm recalling George Floyd's death four years ago, in the big media firestorm in the in the in the you know, in the aftermath of George Floyd's death that sparked the BLM and ANTIFA riots and the burnings of police stations and courthouses and the taking over of downtown areas and streets and everything that we saw in twenty twenty, which was wholly political in nature.

It wasn't about civil rights. Correct, If you look back at that mayhem that took place four years ago, what what stands out to you and what was the what was the end result for law enforcement in this country? We know what it was. Many police departments had their entire budgets gutted following, correct, the protests and what's happened in those towns in cities right well, exactly, let's take a look where we're at national right now because of

this defund the police movement. Right now, most agencies are at two thirds at best of capacity. Some New York City in la are almost at a half. You can't provide protection service to your people with half of the you require necessary to do it. It's just technically impossible. And what's going to continue to happen. We're asking these other half that are left to do double the job, and they're already burned out, so the whole issue is collapsing.

They know that that was their gold objective. You know, I was on a debate with bla man. I asked one simple question, dead silence, tell me one thing, only one. Just give me one thing. That's all have done with the American people, for black community, for anybody. Tell me one thing that you've done. You raised on hundred million dollars, Tell me one thing, just once. It's all I'm asking for that you've done it better the state and this community in this country in silence because

they split the money they've raised on themselves. They've done nothing but destroy the black community by burning it down. They've done nothing but remove police officers from the street so that they can violent crime to continue to escalate and raise and I'm proud of that. These people need to be shot well, I mean, and they found out too that the founders of VLM were really part of the trans movement. It wasn't. It had nothing to do with black lives.

It had to do with their own lives, their personal lives, their trans lives. And we found that out after the fact. Plus they were a great fundraising arm for the Democrat Party and Code Blue and still are absolutely Did you know, man, that's why we had come to this country. Did you know that of the Inflation Reduction Act funds that were passed in twenty twenty two. By the way, how's that working for you? The Inflation Reduction Act, it's rare. I think it was the Inflation Increase Yeah,

yeah, yeah, Increedy and Inflation Allowance Act. They one of most of the billions that were signed into law by Joe Biden through the Congress, and the Inflation Reduction Act were a Green New Deal projects supposedly, but what they really were were handouts to all kinds of activist group, including one that's Climate

Justice or something. They gave fifty million dollars to Climate Justice. If you go to their website, they are supporters of Hamas and there's a there's a picture on this this organization's website of one of the tanks that broke through the barriers on October seventh that allowed Helmas to get into Israel, and you know they're cheering that so even had nothing to do with green energy or the Green New Deal. It is amazing how we have been duped by these bills and

legislation that does exactly the opposite of what it is supposed to do. Well, you think the public attitude towards law enforcements changed and been restored since four years ago. I think it has because people are fed up with the crime. We're making a change. I don't want to say that we're there yet, but we're making the change. It is vastly improving. I think once

people understand that you can't expect somebody else to solve owing problems. If we're going to do this real new this again as the country, we're going to have to be united and we're going to have to reach take the country back to the place that we have values and principles once again. And we can't stand idly by it. Let some rogue government decide that they're going to trample on our rights and our freedom. It's just not going to be possible to

deal both. Well, I mean, why do you why do you suppose the media treats tough on crime is bad. Well, I think the reason is because they have such a close relationship with this ideology with the Democratic Party. They've supported them, they've gotten everything they want to and they get funded. You know, you mentioned it. You just hit the very tip of

the iceberg. How the majority were trillions of dollars is funded to these leftist organizations through Congress with innoculous names humanitarian care, humanitarian aid, restore you know this, or do this or that, and they don't do that at all. They put through nonprofits and they spend money in the media. The mainstream media is changing. Of course, the news print is kind of going down, so they've got to have somebody help pay their bills, advertising and all.

So they use the federal government and Democrats and help support with our task dollars they owe them. Well, you know, it's it's odd. Part of the part of the messaging, and they defund the police efforts that were you know successful for their intent, largely in a lot of big cities, was that police were were unfairly demonizing and incarcerating minorities. And you look in those minority communities, they are the ones who are crying out for a police

presence. You go into black communities in this country and eighty percent of the residents want more police on the street, not less. The only people that don't want police on the street and police doing their job and enforcing the law or the criminals. It's pretty obvious. And you talk to go ahead, go ahead. I think you call it from the democratic colossity. They have we did the black community for its destruction, and unfortunately they don't even realize

that. They give them welfare, they don't want them to work, they want them to be dependent on the government. They have bought their children. They make them feel like they're victims of law, so they shouldn't have to regard laws. You'd have to have any police protection. So they turn on themselves every policy they have done. They have said, we're doing policies to promote equity and to promote the black community, have done the exact opposite.

They've done nothing but to keep the black community down and try to destroy it. And I think the black community is recognizing that now and while waking up that that's not the way it's supposed to be. Let's talk about your organization for a manator so mister Lett's, it's invest USA and how can people get involved and what do you do exactly? Well, in US USA, we started thirty two years ago. We provide protective equipment for law enforcement officers.

But we've got a lot of things. When we first started, we had fifty two percent of officers they had no vests. We got that down to nineteen percent. Then the criminal want went to shooting long range rifles, which they concealable vest will not protect. So we had to start all over with you with active shooting vest which protected gives long range rifles, but ninety percent

of cops don't have those. So we're putting the officers on the street, ask them to do a job that they have no way of being home with us family should they be challenged, and that's that's that's criminal for us to do that. So we make sure we provide a vest. We also make sure that we take care of their other needs. You know, right now our officers, we have a high suicide rate in history. PTSD is real for law enforcement. For purpospondents, we don't even discuss it. Let's try

and figure out how to address it. We are making sure they have the necessary equipment they need otherwise for non lethal methods of dealing with criminal element And the biggest thing that we do is we tell the opportunity for the community. Hey, these people put their lives online for a little or nothing. At least you can do show your support. Reach out today and tell the cops thank you for your service. That's all we're asking. Show them the respect

they deserve. Michael, Let's invest USA. Thank you so much for I'm my friend and we'll talk soon. I'm sure that's it for me. Gary Jeffan for Slowey REGs coming up.
