A passionate instigator and dynamic problem solver. Doctor Kevin ross Emery, the host of the Doctor Kevin Radio Show. We'll be taking you outside the box, behind the curtain and identifying the load of bs we are fed every day. And now Doctor Kevin, Hello, Hello, Hello, and welcome to the first Thursday of the month of August, a Thursday Thursday, Indeed or mischief and Mayhem and my mischief in Mayhem. Favorite playmate is none other than Matt
Connerton from Matt Connerton Unleashed. You can hear Matt from four to six Monday through Friday Eastern Standard Time at WMNH five point three in Manchester, New Hampshire. Or you can go to Matt Connerton dot com or ipmnation dot com and you can get on the show. You can listen to the show. You can send in your comments, you can call in, text in, send
smoke signals. Matt reads them all and you can be part of his you know, you know, two hours his two two hours a day at the circus, but Matt comes here once a month where we mostly kick around what's going on politically in the larger and greater world and kind of just see see what's up? I mean, you can ever tell I think flower last show, half the time we spend about talking about everything and anything but politics,
but we still got some stuff in so it's always an adventure. If you'd like to be part of the conversation here on the Doctor Kevin Show with myself and Matt Punnington, you may do so by calling in at two O two five seven h seven O five seven that's two two five seven five seven. Call in with your comments and your question. Just n We just asked for them to be respectful. That's it. Not how are you these days? Good? Did you say mayhem? Mayhem? Madness and mayhem mayhem? Yeah,
mayhem? All right, it's a second. I'm good, I'm good. How are you? You know? Oh? Well, you know we've got some new stuff coming up. I'm starting a new series which I don't know. I mean, Jenny would be interested in. You should tell her about it. I don't know about you, No, I don't know.
You can be you can be interestedly funky at times. So h so on this coming up Sunday, August sixth, we are doing the something called six for the spiritually curious, and it's a spiritual integrative panel um to sip the Spiritual tea spiritual truth, and we're going to do one a month. I'm
hosting the whole series. Every month. We have a different group of spiritual teachers and healers and speakers, and we have a subject and we each speak on the subject for about ten minutes and then we opened it up for questions. So this is why we're calling it for the spiritually curious. It's to
cover a number of different things. It's on zoom, it's free. We're really trying to try to get up good information out there, you know, and I know there's a lot of crappy information on the Internet, and we know there are a lot of people that are more showman than shaman that are peddling spirituality and religion kind of as a sideshow. And so I came up with this idea, reached out to some of the people, and so four o'clock Sunday afternoon, hour and a half, just depending on how many questions
we get. The first one is psychic or Psychotic is the first show. Then in September we're doing one called got Soul? If so, what does it look like? And then we're gonna do one on Heaven and Hell, one on path Lives, and the final one for the year. The last one will be on angels, but just once a month, and again we're putting it out there for free. We're trying to just invite people who go.
I'd just like to ask some questions and I'd like to hear some different perspectives, because the whole goal is the people on the panel, Matt are not going to agree. I mean, like not, We're not carrying a and this is the standard bearer for our religion law. Yeah, you know, we want to expose people to different ways that different people that are out there doing the work look and think about things and answer questions. So I don't know, what do you think? Yeah, that's cool. I'm curious
about that first one. What is it psychotic or psychic? Yep, psychic or psychotic? Oh, psychic or psychotic. Yeah, I'm curious about that. Yeah. Well, you know, you and anybody else listening can go to New Hampshire Metaphysical dot com sign up, get the zoom link again. It's free. You know, we're kind of talking. You know. I chose that that title, I'll be very honest. One because it was a
good marketing choice because it grabs people's attention. Yeah. The other is that there has been a long history of, especially in the medical profession, of you know, thinking that anybody who thinks they're psychic is actually suffering from some kind of mental illness. And so, you know, I know that's one of the things I want to talk about in challenge. In fact, I'm challenging it in one of my latest books, which Yahoo I finished the final
edit of today. Oh really, sweet Jesus, thank God. And that's the name of the book publisher tomorrow. No, no, no, no, it's my It's the LGBTQIA mainstream romance that I wrote. Oh okay, Yeah, I mean I wrote it last year and it came out really quickly, and then I had to edit it, and then my spring and early summer got completely kidnapped, with like five chapters left to edit at the end,
and finally this week I sat down and got to them. So I'm meeting with the publisher tomorrow and hopefully we'll be able to get this book back on track and get it out there. So I'm excited. I'm excited for it. But in there, one of the characters has a family history of people in their family treated as mentally ill because they were psychic. I mean, it's one of the minor plot points I have in the book because even though it's an lgbt QIA romance, I have a lot of stuff about,
you know, the damage that religion can do. I tackle stuff like homophobia and racism. Um, I really it's a it's a it's a full book. Let's put it that way. So you're not this book and it's not It doesn't sound like it's geared toward necessarily the Florida market. Oh well, I think there's a lot of people in Florida that should read it. I think they should be tested on it. And if they fund to test, I think they should be said to Hungary. Uh oh h fair enough.
So anyways, yeah, so that's what's going on. I finally finished the editor of the book today. Who uh, and I've got I've got the first stip on this uh Sunday, And we'd love to have you and Jenny to term you know, tune in. You know, you can be hanging out and yeah, you know, four o'clock both watching it seeing if you if it's vibing, then please share it with anybody that is spiritually curious and how do we how do we get to that? Again, It's on your
website, New Hampshire Metaphysical dot com. Um is the easiest way, New Hampshire at nh Metaphysical dot com. You can go and it's an event and you can get the zoom link. Uh. I've also it's also in the New Hampshire Metaphysical Facebook page. At some point it was promoted on the Kevin ross Emory Facebook page. It's out there. I can certainly if you have any trouble, text me and I'll make sure I send you a link.
But you shouldn't have any trouble. We've we've been running it in all the different social media platforms, so if you look for it, you shouldn't have a hard time finding it. And if you do, I may need to fire my social media team and hire a new one because they're not doing their job if you can't find it, that's right, So tell me what's I mean? So? How is is life as a former political operative and now a man of music. I've never been a political operative, but political commentary
commentary political Oh well, there's no there's no former. I mean, that's that's still what we do. We just do a we just do a little a little bit more actually a lot more music than we used to. But no, we still do plenty of politics. Today was almost to all politics, except we did have the We had the world radio premiere of the new single Hipster Dipster from the band Jerry and the Scumbags, and My show is
actually mentioned in the lyrics of the song, which is very cool. But uh oh, but we talked about today on the show, of course, a lot about you know, historic day, Trump's arrangement and we have you're familiar with Mary Ann Williamson. Correct. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, she's coming on the show in studio. She'll be here Friday, August eighteenth. She's she's coming in for an interview. So really looking forward to that. That just got confirmed today. Oh well, congratulation, thank
you, thank you. Yeah. Jenny, Jerry, Jenny does all the booking and she's she's really doing a great job. Yeah. Well, she hasn't reached out to me lately. Ah. Ah, you're all, You're all. You're always welcome now, I know, I'll just show up. I'll be there August at Who are you kidding? Ah? There you go. Yeah, yeah, yeah, she's got some interesting I mean I don't disagree with a lot of what she says, like what she would like to
do politically. Yeah, I don't know how feasible it is. And you know, so it's kind of one of those you know, it's one of those dreadful things which you refer to and I tend to get on your case about. But if you want your vote to count, there's a minimum amount of criteria that you know it's going to count when you've vote. Now, after we had rank and filed voting, I would absolutely consider voting for her
with a rank and filed choice underneath her. I mean, from what I've heard, I haven't studied her whole platform, but the things I liked. How familiar are you with her politicer her what she wants to do if she gets elected. I think she's to the left of Biden. I think she's essentially more of a socialist. I'm not so much familiar with her specific positions, but I do recall, and I talked about this on the show too.
You know, she was on that debate stage in twenty twenty. Nobody took her too seriously, and of course she didn't have a chance, and
she has no chance now. Obviously Biden will be the nominee, of course, But I remember at the time making the observation that, you know, I don't think she was very impressive during those debates, but those that format is not for everyone, especially when you're not a polished politician, and it's hard to get across an idea or a policy position, especially when you're kind of a new kid there. You know, in a minute, thirty seconds, forty five seconds, whatever it is that you have to speak, and
the menial amount of time you have to speak. But then later I did see her in a couple of long form interviews on different podcasts and got to get more of a full picture of her and who she is and what she believes, and and actually find her to be very impressive. So in the right format, I think she's very impressive, very intelligent, knows her stuff, knows history very well, and I'm really looking forward to getting to sit down with her. I don't know if she's staying for the full two hours
or what the plan is exactly. We'll find out, but I've been impressed by what I've seen of her on other programs So if you were Jenny can send me the announcement of her being on the show. I will hand it over to my team to put it through all of our our social media feeds that would probably be very wanting to hear her. You know, you don't have a lot of social media feeds that that specifically go after spiritual a spiritual
community. And so yeah, get me something before she's there, and I'll have my people put it out and place it in all the different places where we might be able to drum up some new listeners for you because of your having her on. Oh. Absolutely, yeah, definitely, Yeah, it's perfect match. So okay, so let's talk about today's indictment. Let's talk about Jack Smith. Let's talk about how things are worded and what your thoughts are. I mean, there's a there's definitely some stuff to unpack here.
Yeah, jeez, where do you want to start? I don't even know where any start. Um, well, I mean, I'm I'm a couple of things that are I guess what's most intriguing to me at the moment is are we going to see during the trial. Are we actually going to see Mike Pence testifying against his former boss which I think we are likely to see, which will be fascinating because not only was Pence trump sweep but also a
current political opponent for the Republican nomination. So that's something that I'm particularly intrigued by. And the other thing that I'm particularly intrigued by at the moment is are we going to see Mark Meadows from former chief of staff testify. I suspect that we will. And is Mark Meadows in fact a cooperating witness, which I suspect that is. So those are the two elements of this, and I'm the most intrigued by it at the moment and can't wait to see
how how those particular things unfold. So it's interesting because I think you're right, we're going to see Hence on the witness stand. And unlike some people who are able to blow off the request from Congress, is this is not a yeah, I don't feel like showing up type of situation. Right, Yeah, Their ass is going to get thrown in that chair, whether they wanted to or not. Right, absolutely, And what will be funny? Well, so first of all, I wonder knowing this is coming down the
pike. You know, Pence went on and basically went at Trump on Fox yesterday. Did you see that? Um? Well, by going at Trump, what do you mean exactly? Because even at his most vicious, Trump, I mean, I'm sorry, Pence is pretty mild and in my opinion, generally comes across as an empty husk of a man, incapable of any sort of anger or passion or putting any force behind anything he says. Why what? So No, I didn't see specifically that. What did he say?
I didn't see it either, So I've only read the headline. Oh god, Pence made it. Pence made it clear that he didn't think Trump was fit to be president based on what they were saying from this. Oh that's right, yes, yes, yes, that anyone who puts the puts himself over the constitution cannot be president something like that. Yeah, and this for Pence, that's being outspoken. Yeah, I mean it, don't. I talk about Pence a lot on my show and that I just find him
to be very sort of I find my Pence well. On the one hand, I appreciate his courageousness on January six and doing the right thing, But in every other way since then, I find him to be somewhat of a pathetic figure, mainly because he has acknowledged that Trump, with his words, put him and his family, his wife and his daughters in danger on that day, and yet can barely like he struggles to muster up even the faintest criticism of Trump over that, and he usually says, well, you know,
I just think the former president got some bad legal advice, you know, and kind of blames it on the lawyers, after also acknowledging that Trump put his own wife and daughters in jeopardy on that day. So I find Pence to be kind of pathetic, I mean, you know, especially given he comes from a Christian patriarchal background where you know that the father and the
husband is supposed to be the protector. And yet watching him continue to sort of walk on eggshells because he doesn't want to upset anybody in the magacult by criticizing the guy who caused people to actually chant hang Mike Pence on January sixth, it's like, uh, you know, the bar has become unbelievably low in terms of you know, Pence really what we think of as Pence being
somehow forceful or or critical of Trump, you know what I mean? Yeah, and you know, part of it is this was probably the most bold, the closest to a bold statement that Pence has meant, which is right bold for pens But I think that now maybe I'm giving Tense too much credit, But I'm wondering if he sees the handwriting on the wall that he's going to be forced to be a testimony, that testimony is going to come out, and if he doesn't start getting a little further away from the milk toast
at Trump um than any hope he has, which is zero, but any hope he has of actually getting the nomination, even if if Trump gets convicted and ends up in jail and is unable to run or loses the nomination because of this um. You know, I think that it's a there's a little bit of a strategy of He's going to get a little bit more riled up at what's happening here, or Trump's going to just think of bad her claims with him. And it was enough riled up that Trump immediately went after him
on social media because of course Trump is so ticked off. He was, I mean, he's just he's just looking for people at the barbecue right now. And of course yeah, you know, there is so little purr or integrity left in the gop RA. Now. They're also afraid of the Cruise effect, you know, like he emasculated ted Cruise, who then follows him around like a puppy dog with a ground nose when you can see it when he pulled it out of Trump's butt, Yeah, you know, and so
he's really whipped. He's really whipped that that Republican Party they're all like lipped to dogs. Oh yeah, but so I just want you know, so that was my thought on the tenth perspective. Somebody may have said, you're going to start to shift this a little bit because the guy could crash and burn, and if you're still looking like you're defending him, there's not going to be any like you will go down with that plane. So I don't know, I could be wrong. Well, but it's not. It's not
gonna matter. Even if even if Trump does crash and burn. Republicans will never forgive Mike Pence for not trying to overturn the election, So it's not going to make any difference. I mean, I know what you're saying. If Trump crashes and burns, Pence wants to be the guy in theory. But but Trump's But even if Trump crashes and burns, He'll still be the nominee. Even if Trump ends up in prison, He'll still be the nominee.
I mean, every bad thing that happens to Trump, you know, he tells these people, well, it's I mean, he was saying today, it's it's actually a great honor to be indicted because he's he's being indicted for for all of you. You know. Uh, he just I've never seen anything like it. He's got them all convinced that. You know, it's that if they're not just after him, they're they're after all of us. And uh, and they believe it. They eat it up, and
you know, it's it's it's amazing. I mean, his numbers are going up in the polls among Republicans, um, and he just raises more and more money. So this is all still very positive in terms of Trump's quest for the nomination. Uh, you know, it's not great and that he you know, he could end up in prison, but it is great for him in terms of the nomination. He will be the nominee a more share
of it than ever because he only gains support among Republicans. Now is there's been anything at least there's Yeah. Rachel Maddow did a rant the other day that about history looking back and saying how did this not what did this man do? But how did this man ever get elected? Like what what went
wrong in America that this man got elected? Yeah? And you know, um so, so none of these charges, if he gets found guilty, would would interfere with him running for office because I haven't studying the charges enough to know. Because there are some things if you are convicted of, it eliminates you for being able to run for public office. And but I don't think jack Swick went after conspiracy, which would have eliminated his ability to run
proffer, But none of the other four do. I don't think. I don't believe there's anything that prohibits him at all, you know, unless he were to take a plea deal, and part of the plea deal was he can't run for president. But he's not going to do that. I mean, I didn't notice until recently. But actually this is stunning to me.
But if I remember this correctly, nine of federal cases do end in a plea deal because the Department of Justice doesn't full around if they don't think they can get a conviction, even if they know or suspect that you've done something pretty bad. If they don't think, if they're not almost one hundred percent sure that they can get a conviction, there, they don't waste their time charging you. So nine of these of these cases never go to trial.
They end up in a plea deal, and then the other ten percent they usually end up with a conviction. But but he's not going to take a plea deal. Well, I mean, I know there are certain things that bar you from running for often. I mean it's not there are some things. I just don't know what they are. Yeah, they either, that's the question. And I was pointing out on my show today too. It's more, you know, people being in legal trouble running and winning elections is
more common than people might realize. For example, Ken Paxton, the I guess now former Attorney general in the same of Texas. You know, he was under federal indictment for quite some time and still ran and still won, and you know, it all caught up with him finally, but it took years, and Texas, Texas voters had no problem while he was, you know, under indictment had no problem voting for him. It's pretty remarkable.
So we will be back in just a moment as we talk about some possible all plays of this indictment and then other things that are going on in the world today with my co host Matt Conton here on the Doctor Kevin Show.

Our call in number today, as always is two O two five seven seven. Call in and
be part of the conversation. My co host for this show, as most usual, is Matt Connerton from Matt Connerton Unleashed.

You can tune into his show. You can even h I am, or text or do whatever to ask your questions to be part of his three ring circus. Um So I tried on break to look and I couldn't
find what it was easily. Um And I'm now I'm just really curious as what is it? There are certain things that if you are invicted of you cannot run for office, But I can't find what they are? Do you how do you look at the charges? Go ahead? I think if you're convicted of sedition, you then you can't run. If you're convicted of some sort of sedition or treason, I think that's it. I think that's the only thing. So um, and that I know that was not one of
the charges, right right. Have you had a chance to look at the charges that he actually filed and do you think that they are that they are going to that anyone or all any of them are stuff that they can make stick. We're looking at it right now. What do you think? Yeah, there's four of them. I don't I don't remember how they're all worded, but you know, basically to kind of sum up what they are, ours is he's being charged with trying to overturn the twenty twenty election illegally.
And you know, we should clarify too, because this has been kind of shorthanded in the media to a large extent, although some of the mainstream media is trying to correct this, but it's been kind of shorthanded as being the January sixth investigation or a January sixth trial. January sixth is a part of this, you know, a piece of this puzzle. But really it's not about January sixth. It's about the effort to overturn the twenty twenty election,
and you know, that's that's really what he's being charged with. And a lot of it seems to center on did he know that that that it was all bs what he was claiming, because part of the defense is at least
what I see publicly. I don't know what will be said in court when the trial eventually starts, but part, at least publicly the defense right now seems to be, or what people are speculating the defense will be in court, is that he honestly believed that he was acting in good faith, that he honestly believed that the election had been stolen, and that it might not be as easy as we all assume for prosecutors to prove that no, in fact, he did know that he was acting in bad faith and that the
election had not been stolen. But I'm pretty sure it's going to you know, multiple people are going to testify in court that, yeah, of course he knew. He knew Cassidy Hutchinson, who had worked in the White House, you know, she said during the January sixth committee hearings. She said that Trump had acknowledged that, you know, that he knew that the election was stolen, and everybody has around him, as said, they told him
that that it was bs that the election had not been stolen. So so we'll be u to federal prosecutors to try to prove that he knew that what he was doing was wrong. But but that's that's not a slam dunk necessarily, although probably pretty likely. What is apparently not included in the indictment is because part of the defense too has been well, you know, he has a free speech He has a First Amendment right to say whatever he wants to.
So if he wants to go out and claim that the election was stolen, whether he's being truthful or acting in bad faith. That doesn't matter. He has a right to say whatever he wants to say publicly, and that is not there's nothing about that, at least I don't think there is in
the indictment. So they've avoided that. So they seem to be there's a sense that they're only going for charges that they know they can prove in court, and it might be difficult to overcome the First Amendment argument that the defense would make or will make. But so that's not included in the charges, at least I don't think it is. So it seems to really hinge on his efforts to illegally and with consciousness of guilt, actually overturned the twenty twenty
elections. Well, I get a somewhere I read that part of this because they were very careful that it was not about his free speech, but that he actively made plans with the knowledge that he had not won and was involved up to his eyeballs in the fake elector scheme. Because one of the charges is against, you know, trying to interfere with the Americans right to vote and be represented A yeah, lash languages, but and that he he was
part of the fake collector scheme. To do that, and they caught something something on tape or somewhere where he was trying to where he said depends about being a little less honest. Yeah, yeah, he's he told Tense, you're too honest. Yeah, yeah, that you're too honest. And then there was a clip and this, you know, so much, so much has unfolded. It's like a ship stream. It's like it's like one of
the flash floods in California of stuff coming out about this. But he was caught on audio tape admitting he had not won, and that came up and there was a big hullabump for about twenty four thirty six hours, and then something else came out and then that became him the big hub. But there was a voice recording of him acknowledging he did not win. Um and I remember it, and I remember I was like, oh, but I came
up and like all both went away right afterwards. Yeah, And and I mean if they have his voice saying of course he's going to tell his people. Yeah, that was that was a high. That was That wasn't me. That was just you know, yeah, they just just had a you know, one of those really talented voice over actors pretending to be me u but um and unfortunately just a large swath of those people who will believe it.
Um. But yeah, I do remember he was on voice tape caught and then there was Cassidy but and there was two or three other people who you know, he acknowledged it to, but you know, then tried to twist it in. But that's not really the will of the American people. But you know, the problem is he could problem pass a lie detective test because we know he's a narcissist and he believes everything he says right, and and people with certain types of mental illness can lie and pass a lie detective
test because in their head they're really convinced this the truth. Oh absolutely, So you know it will be interesting. Now here's the question is if he gets the domination and I know you're like, he's gonna get it, I don't know. That's not the debatable point here. If he gets it, you know, can he swing enough of the independent voters with the kind of convictions to vote for him. Well, the thing is Republicans voting for him
is not enough. Right. Well, what I've always said is that while all of these legal problems help him in terms of getting the nomination, but then hurt him in the general election because he's not going to pick up any new people, you know, suburban Republicans who maybe are more moderate and of course are even right right leaning, independence and whomever else that he needs who
may be decided to go for Biden in twenty twenty. They're not going to change their minds now and say, oh yeah, you know, maybe I will take a look at Trump for twenty four you know. So he's not expanding his base, he's just consolidating his support among them. But there's there's a big wild card here. And I haven't heard anyone else talking about this. I might be the only person in all of media who has brought this up. But what if what if something happens with Biden that makes people really
worried about voting for Biden? For example, you know, Biden is about the same age as Mitch McConnell, and you saw what happened to Mitch McConnell. Right, Yeah, I want to talk about that afterwards. Go ahead. All it's going to take. All it would take for Trump to be elected president would be for something like that to happen. With Biden. For example, say Biden freezes up like that, maybe during a speech or worse, during a debate. He's on that debate stage across from Trump and Biden
has a moment where he just completely seizes up for twenty three seconds. Then it's over. Then it's over. Trump will win if anything like that happens. And that's a big worry for me because, like I said, Biden's about the same age as McConnell, and you know, you get near eighties, you know, things like that happen. You know, the wheels too start to fall off a little bit, and um, you know, and
I don't think Biden should be running anyway. You know, my attitude is, uh, thank you, sir, thank you for getting us through the pandemic. Well done, and you can go. Now. That's that's been my attitude all along. Um, but man, there's a lot that could go wrong. Um. So anybody who says, oh, well, Biden beat him once, so I'll beat him again and it's a slam dunk and I would not be uh to to too cocky about it. And also too with the electoral college, you know, uh, Trump could lose the popular
vote. But the way the electoral map works. He could certainly when when, and so you know I wouldn't I wouldn't take it too lightly. So the now Trump is only what two years three years younger than Biden I believe, Yeah, I believe Trump. I believe he's three years younger. So just to have a moment of unrequited joy and happiness, what happens if it's Trumps that freezes on the debate stage, Well, that would be preferable.
McConnell. Yeah, I know that would be That would be something. I mean, this man eats the most god awful diet and does nothing to take care of his health, and it's too arrogant to think he could get sick or die um and has a ton of these pressures. And we have Georgia that's gonna do some kind of indictment in September. Right, I thought, this great little little cartoon, and it's a lawyer sitting there with Trump, and Trump says, which w I t which trial? And the lawyer said,
oh, this is the trial on the federal indictment. It's not the one on Yeah. I was like, how perfect is that? So we'll still see um if Trump stumbled, do you think there's anyone that the Republican Party could rally behind that could actually save their day. Or is it They're only going to get an office at Biden stumbles at this point? Oh, I mean there's other, there's other. I mean, there would have to be a pretty big sum on Trump's part for something that to take him out
and they get somebody else in there. I mean, they've got better candidates in the field. But you know, I mean, I'm you know, I have actually somewhat of a fondness for Chris Christie in some ways, even though I don't trust him, but I like the way I respect the way he goes after Trump. Um, it's just completely unafraid and you know, just really honest in that sense. And he would make a phenomenal general election candidate because you know, uh, some Democrats I think, you know who
are worried that Biden's too old. He might peelst some Democrats and been independence certainly, Um, I think he'd I think he'd make a great candidate. But uh, but no, I mean, you know, it's it's gonna be Trump, and you know, I don't I actually think it's less likely,
even though Trump takes terrible care of himself physically. I think it's less likely that Trump has a moment like that than Biden, only because I will say this about Trump, like Trump never seems frail or tired in the way that Biden does sometimes, even though Biden is clearly in better physical condition. You know, Biden was out on his bike today. Um you know, so he said he's thin, and he looks you know, he looks fit. Um, but he seems tired sometimes and Trump never really does. Trump
always has that that bluster about him, and he never seems frail. I don't know. But they're both up there. Anything can anything can go wrong. Um So Mitch McConnell and Diane Feinstein m are you know? Um, but let's stay with Mitch. So, yeah, what do you think was it? Was it a mini stroke? I mean I looked at the footage and it's like he's having a little tia there is what it looked like to may. But what do you think and is it going to make any difference?
I don't think. Yeah, I don't think he's not up for re election for a while. I think so, um so he's and he has said he's going to uh uh fill out his serve out as full term, but has not said whether he'll run for re election at the end of it. I don't think he does, But yeah, it might have been it might have been a TIA. It looked like it, but it also could
have been. You know, he's apparently had more stumbles recently than we realized, and I know there was that that one pretty bad one where he ended up in the hospital. So it might have been something caused by post concussion syndrome. It might have been a TIA caused by post concussion syndrome. I don't know. He doesn't seem to want to talk about it. When anyone asks him, he just says I'm fine, I'm fine, almost defensively,
so we may never know if he continues to keep it secret. I assume he's seen a doctor that was uncomfortable to watch twenty three seconds of him just kind of and he looked he looked like his face was kind of frozen too, like, yeah, that kind of thing is scary. But I don't know. I mean, if I had to guess, gone to my head, I would say it was a TIA, but I don't know. So
have you heard anything about this new platform being released? By the Republican Party saying that there needs to be more centralized control in the presidency, and it was a mistake on the part of our founding father. There's that I have a hand string you two. Um have you seen that. Well, I know that there's uh, there's a plan uh if Trump is re elected to kind of consolidate power in the executive branch. Yeah, iven't. I haven't
seen that very closely. It's not something I've closely looked at. But um, but I know that, you know, they would like to make make the executive branch a little bit more of a well a little a little more fascism and a little more autocracy, let's put it that way. Yeah, the biggest mistake they ever made when they decided to limit the president after a cr got elected four times was that they didn't elected that they didn't do the
same thing to Congress. It's the same principle. It's the exact same principle if a if a guy, if a guy gets elected for a third time as president, why not the American people voted him. Well, Congress had also the reasons why they didn't want that to ever happen again. Um. And but the reverse, but they don't think the reverse is true. Of course the reverse is true. You know. I I if you have term limits, you have all three branches should have term limits. Nobody should be
there because again, now look at Diane Feinstein. She's she's she really still capable of doing her jobs. Oh, clearly not. No, yeah, it's it's that situation is horrific. I don't understand why she's there. I don't understand. I guess her. I think her daughter has power of attorney. Now I don't. I don't know understand what's going on there. I mean, well, I mean except for there might be some pressure to keep her there because Adam Schiff doesn't want her to step down, and then Governor
Newsom has to appoint somebody. Although although if he got Gavin Newsom to simply appoint Adam Schiff, then maybe that would work. But yeah, Adam Schiff wants to run for a congressman. Adam Schiff wants to run for the Senate, so he wants to run when Feinstein finishes up this term. But I don't. But but for her to still be there, it doesn't make any sense. She doesn't know where she is, she's you know, there.
There's a story out there that she's already been diagnosed with dementia and they're keeping it quiet. It's it's bizarre, it's embarrassing, it's immoral. She should not be there. And there was a a reporter who interacted with her when she first came back, and she was she didn't seem to realize that she had missed any time. She was talking about having been there the whole time. I mean, she's lost. You know, she's ninety years old,
and that's it's tragic. I'm not trying to pick on her. That's that's what happens to some of us unfortunately. Um, but she should not be there. That doesn't make any sense. Now, Well, I was do you remember strom Thurman? M Oh, yeah, he stayed way he stayed
way past his expiration date. I mean I can, I can understand, you know, and some people, some people will say it's ages or whatever, and then you know, people bring up I mean Chuck Grassley of Iowa, he's I think he's ninety and he you know, but he but he's also taken extra measures to kind of uh stay with it because he still apparently goes out in jogs every day I don't know how at ninety someone's knees can even take that, but apparently his due, and he still goes out and
runs. And of course, you know, we all know that you know, the better the better care that you take of yourself physically, the better off you are mentally. So maybe that's why even at ninety he still seems perfectly sharp as far as I can tell. So you know there's exceptions to that too. It's not like anybody who's ninety is just dissolving into a shell of their former selves. But um, but but Diane Farnstein, she ain't. No Chuck Grassley it that way. You know, clearly, I think
grass Grassley is the exception, not the rule. So I'm going to tell you this, and this will this little story, and it's not political of us. There's something else political. You want to comment that you there's something I'm politically You want to comment that you think people are missing? If not, I just have a have a story I'm going to share with you.
But no, no, I'm curious, serious sort. So I read this interestingly in the Guardian, which is out of abriland out of the UK, and this eighties and I don't know if you heard about this eighty seven year old woman in Brunswick, Maine. She wakes up at two o'clock in the morning. This guy has broken in and is over her bed with a knife vein if she if she says or does anything, he's gonna cut her. It turns out it was like the kid, like when he was a kid
for ten years. He mowed her lawn and she got up, and she got out of bed and thought, well, if he's going to try to cut me, I'm going to try to kick him. So she put her shoes on yarh and he led her and so he started to like he did hit her. He bruised her, and she like racked him with a chair
and fought back until finally he just dropped a knife. He got into like her conditioner, not being surely completely secure or something, and so whatever reason, when he got in, he had taken off his shoes and his pants, so he was there fighting her in his underwear, and he just then wandered out of the bedroom down to her kitchen because he was familiar with the house. And she goes after him, and she and he says, you know, I'm just so hungry it's been so long since I've eaten. Now,
this kid's seventeen years old, and so she feeds him. She calls nine one, she calls the police, but she feeds him because he's hungry. He wanders off and goes out, and they pick him up on the road and put him into to Juvie and she's like, I'll just hope he straightened his life out. You know, sometimes bad things happen to good people. She was like, so compactionate about it, put a bruise on her forehead, and also said that at eighty seven she still taught line dancing classes.
Oh wow. So that story came up as we were talking about not everybody is the same age at ninety or at eighty seven or whatever. And it was Brunswick, Maine. And I didn't hear anything anything about this. I haven't heard anybody in any of our news sources. But it made a UK newspaper. The thing they said out Old Main Women is true was badline apparently. Yeh that's pretty cool. Yeah, it is the best part is to me, he was hungry, so she found him. Yes, wow,
God bless her. Still some good people in the world. And Matt Hunderton, you're one of them. Well, thank you Doctor Kevin. All right, sounds good, Thank you Bye. H
