Attention. You're listening to the Tod Huff radio show, America's home for conservative not Bitter talk radio. The advised the content of this program has been documented to prevent and even cure liberalism, and listening may cause you to lean to the right. Here's your conservative but not Bitter host, Tod Huff. All right, my friends, here we are at the end of a busy broadcast week. It is hard to believe January is quickly quickly passing us by moving
into I don't know if I've shared this. I haven't shared this this year, but every time I think of February, I think of Groundhog Day, which is the most entertaining holiday. I think that there could be holding up a little groundhog to see if we're going to have six more weeks of winter. Those guys in the top hats love it. Anyway. It's good to be here today. Thank you for joining us. Emails should you want to be part of this conversation today, Todd at todd haveshow dot com. You
can always text us as well. Three one seven two one zero twenty eight thirty. That actually reminds me I did get a message that I did want to you know, sometimes I directly reply on here as well to people that have messaged us, and I think I do with this one really quickly. I got a message. I think it was on Wednesday, and there were a couple typos in the message, so I but I think I got the It happens, by the way, a big deal, but the gist of
it was I'm looking at enough. Perhaps I missed Perhaps I missed it, but if not, please consider discussing Trump versus other Trump VP. Probably there we go. That's not how I read that initially. It's not how I read that initially. You know, I thought it was talking about versus other candidates, so vps. I don't know, honestly, I think, you know, I think that there are you've seen the stuff out there as far as some VP potential. I've seen Christynum's name kicked around. There's some people
that think Ramaswami might have a role like that. Maybe it's not VP. And then of course there was Trump and his comments with Ramaswami, when Ramaswami endorsed Trump the other night with Trump standing beside him, you know, for a while, until she decided she was running for Senate in Arizona, I thought Carrie Lake. I actually thought, if I'm being candid with you, I thought Carrie Lake my be the choice for Trump. For a while, that was kind of my pick. Those are the ones that jump up.
I don't know, and I don't know how much it matters. I remember back in the day when I was in college. I remember there was a lot of discussion. People did not like that the vice president was, while technically voted on, the vice president didn't go through a vetting process of the American people, meaning the candidate, the nominee selected his or her running mate and then put them on the ballot with them, and then you voted for
them as a team. And a lot of people at the time, of course, back in these days you had Reagan, who had a vice president, of George H. W. Bush, who then became president. You had William Jefferson Clinton, America's first black president. They used to tell us that, by the way, do you know that for those of you who are younger, you may not, but he was actually described in some circles as America's first black president. I guess you can be trans black, after
all. Who knows if you're a leftist to anything as possible, but Bill Clinton, his running mate, his vice president, I should say, was Albert al Gore Junior, and al Gore ran for president in two thousand against George Bush. That, by the way, was, of course the hanging chads, the dimpled chads. If you weren't alive or paying attention to politics at that time, that's worth looking into. That was an incredible election.
You talk about a razor thin election that came down to the state of Florida in particular, a couple of counties, something like I want to say, five hundred and thirty seven votes or some such thing. Supreme Court cases. I mean, this had it all. You talk about election deniers, there was that as well. Anyway, I don't know where Trump was going to
go with that, but of course there's plenty plenty of opinions. But to me, the bigger issue is I don't think it it matters in the sense that we want someone on the ticket, and boy, this is not intended to be an attack on Mike Pince, but I think we need someone on the ticket who also has the same tenacity or no one's gonna have the same tenacity, but the same level of tenacity as well that's not even true either, the same in the vicinity, how about that in the same general vicinity
of the tenacity that President Trump has. Because friends, if Trump wins this, we have to hit the ground running. He has to hit the ground running in two thousand and twenty well twenty five technically is inauguration day should he win, and there's not gonna be any time for any messing around. There can't be any concern for a lot of the traditional I don't know niceties and so if I'm not saying to be jerks, but there are things that absolutely
have have to be done. And so hopefully there's someone with some tenacity, someone who's not afraid, someone who's not too much concerned about I don't know, the traditional side of that. We just need people pushing in the right direction. It's not enough, my friends, for the President of the United States to simply slow or for the Republican Party to slow the nonsense. We actually have to begin the process of undoing some of it. So I want
to start here today. I want to start here today by talking about an interview or part of an interview I saw the other night with JP Morgan CEO Jamie Diamond now Jamie Diamond was being interviewed, and of course the media, as we've talked about, was in complete panic mode, completely be thought oled how to Trump not only when the Iowa caucus, but how did he get
above fifty percent? And I've seen this spun every conceivable way. I've seen the results of the twenty twice excuse me, the twenty twenty four Iowa caucus spun in a number of ways. Well, of course Trump should get fifty percent. He actually should get a lot more than that. He's basically the incumbent, right, This is how this is framed. This is how this is this is spun. I heard someone say, I don't remember who it
was, one of these talking heads in the media. Man, if Obama ran for the Democrat nomination again, if he was able to do that, you can almost hear some disappointment in their voice, because again, nobody wants Biden. By the way, nobody wants Biden. Anybody who tells you that they're riding with Biden, it's actually lion with Biden so far as I can tell. But the idea they said that, you know, Obama comes back into this race, if he could be our Nona, he would get eighty
five ninety ninety five percent. May I point out, by the way, in twenty twenty Trump did get I think he got ninety seven percent. I think is what I saw when I was doing some show prep earlier this week, ninety seven percent in the Iowa caucus. But you have to remember what's happened here, right, I mean, context is King, Context is King. First of all, there were four primary for primary people in this election, Trump, DeSantis, Nikki Hayley, Vivek Ramaswami. And this is in
the wake of everything that's happened to Trump. This is in the wake of Trump having what is it, ninety one indictments or whatever it is. This is in the wake of two impeachments. This is This is Republicans in the state of Iowa who are trying to decide if the guy that is the clear front runner, if there is if he can pull it off in the general. There are some people now I think that he can. By the way, I want to be clear, I'm telling you how I think that many
voters are looking at this. They look at this and they think, I don't like Trump's tweets, or maybe they think Nicky Hayley is a little bit more statesman like. She's not as harsh on something. She's you know, articulate, she's measured, you know. And some people don't like that. It doesn't mean they won't vote for it. They won't vote for Trump. It certainly doesn't mean that they'll pick Biden over Trump. Maybe some of these
folks will. I did see too, Remember I had mentioned and you had seen this probably elsewhere Trump had was one vote away from winning all ninety nine Iowa counties. I forget the name of the county, but I did read as I read through that article, and I didn't mention this when we talked
about this. As I was reading through that article, somewhere near the end, maybe the second half of the article, it said that there was they actually ran out of papers for people to fill out who had switched parties in that particular county, those precincts or however it's set up there there were a higher proportion or a significant portion of people who were Democrats who were changing their
party affiliation, however that works in Iowa. Specifically, to vote in the Republican caucus in Iowa on Monday, and she wins by one vote there. We know that Nikki haleeu is and has been trying to appeal to Democrats to win the Republican nomination. Of course, we've got New Hampshire coming up here in a few days as well. But the point is, the point is here. The fallout from Iowa caused all sorts of pandemonium from the left trying to spin it in ways. He's not as popular as he should be.
If this guy was such a threat politically, he would have gotten much more than fifty one percent. I went through this with you on I don't know, Tuesday or Wednesday. Where we looked at We looked at this the history of the Iowa caucus. We looked at the high mark, the high what was considered a sizable victory, and no one besides Trump back to twenty twenty or two thousand, I should say, has eclipsed the fifty percent mark.
I think that that's relevant. I think that that's relevant. You also have to put yourself in the position of how Iowa caucus goers think about the election. They, folks, they are the first ones to begin to voice their opinion. They think of this as a blank slate. Of course, of sorts, looking across a lot of candidates typically and picking the one that they
think would be best for whatever purpose. And again in the case of Trump, some of those factors include, can a guy who's been under you know, indictment for ninety one charges when the White House? What happens if he's taken off of the ballot and not allowed to be on the ballot, not just in the primary, but maybe in the general. What happens. We've got articles, I've got them in the stack of stuff. An article that shows how the Democrat Party is trying to prepare, prepare itself to challenge the
outcome of the twenty twenty four election should President Trump become president again. On and on, this goes right, on and on, this goes. Remember, it's the Seinfeld Newman strategy. Whatever it takes, as long as it takes them, so long as it takes Trump away from sixteen hundred Pennsylvania Avenue the White House, And that's the strategy. That's the plan. And when they don't see their plan working, they get panicked. And that's what we've
seen over the past few days. They get panicked. They start to try to say, well, he didn't win by as much as he should have won. You know, this guy is going to end up in an orange jumpsuit, not to be confused with Hillary Clinton's orange pantsuit. All these things, all these things trying to spin it, but it is a foregone conclusion. And I'm telling you and you know this. They do not they do not want to mess with the buzz saw that is President Donald J. Trump
in twenty twenty four. They do not want this. It is abundantly evident. They do not want this. They don't think they can stop him. And that involves every strategy and idea imaginable, as you know, everything that they've reviewed and that they willing to do, which candidly I think is virtually anything. I think they've they've laid out all these things in strategic meetings, and they realize that they're really that they've played all their cards right. I
mean, there's no more. There's nothing else that they can do to make this, to make Trump scarier to some voter who's maybe on the fence. There just isn't. They've done it for so long, there's nowhere else to take this. There just doesn't. Now I'm not gonna I'm not saying they're not going to try or anything like that. October surprise sort of stuff is certainly a reality. But I mean they are in full fledged mode of weaponizing
the government to go after this guy anyway. So with that is the backdrop, I'm gonna take a time out. When I get back, I want to play. I want to play a piece of a SoundBite. It's about ninety seconds Jamie Diamond, CEO of JP Morgan telling the media, telling viewers. I think it was was at MSNBC. I don't know where it was, one of these lunatic leftist outlets, but he says, hey, we
should be more respectful of Trump voters. This is another indication, my friends, that people are beginning to realize that the Trump movement, despite their best effort, is not a fringe movement. It occupies the heart of America, at least a big, big chunk of the heart of America for several reasons. For several reasons. I mean, they've seen what it's like to live under a Democrat president now for four years or three years, it seems like
fifty years they have, you know, they can compare and contrast. They see the impact of having weak leadership. The world is on fire, inflation has been a problem. It's still way higher than it should be. We've got an open border. We go through all these things right on a regular basis, kitchen table, politics, personal finance, job, buying a house.
How many young people think that there's no remote way that they're ever going to own a home given the conditions of the housing market, the expense that's involved there, and just the overall economic questions that people have, Inflation and all these sorts of things and people. These are unavoidable, no matter how many talking points, no matter how many one liners, no matter how many campaign slogans, no matter how many times the Biden campaign goes out there and
tells us that Biden's age actually means wisdom and experience and good judgment. None of that stuff. None of that stuff matters. And they're coming to the realization that they are out of cards to play, and this is going This has the potential, I don't want to say it's going to be, but this has the potential to be absolutely politically brutal for the Democrats coming up here later this year. Timeouts in order, I'll play that SoundBite from Jamie Diamond
when we return. You're listening here to conservative not better talk. I am your host, the one the only tapuff back here in just a minute, come back to my friend. We're just going through, going through the realities here that the Democrats, the media, the seven pillars of propaganda are just now coming to grips with. They have invested think about this. They have invested everything in their existence into stopping what is now unfolding before their eyes.
They have thrown everything at stopping Donald Trump, everything imaginable. There is a case in New York where they are trying to go after him for well, to penalize him for real estate valuation when he got alone. I've heard I've heard people talk about this in the real estate world and they say, you know, no one was injured here, There wasn't like it wasn't like Trump didn't repay alone or something like that. This was this was just arbitrarily after
the fact. And they've you know, people who are in this world, and it makes sense to someone who's not like I'm not a professional real estate investor, but they the people that are in that world say this, this has never happened before. And how many things would you say that about Trump? Right? How many things would you say, this thing that's happening to Trump has never happened before. So you've got that in New York, you've
got four criminal trials, you have two in peapeachments. You had the Russian collusion, delusion right on and on, we had wire tapping, spying on his campaign. Back in twenty sixteen, we had fifty one alleged alleged intelligence experts that this little old talk show host, even at the time that they said that this Hunter Biden laptop scandal had all the hallmarks of Russian propaganda and disinformation. How was I able to figure out and how were you able to
figure out that that was bunk? Back in twenty twenty. How many times have you seen fifty one intelligence professionals, big wigs in that particular, in any particular phase of the of the government or some industry come out in unison as they do against President Trump. We can go on and on and on about this, but they've thrown everything they can to stop this guy, everything they can conceive of, absolutely everything, And what are they left with?
A guy who won over fifty percent of the vote in the Iowa caucus, who is gearing up to win in New Hampshire. I'm not even sure, folks, that we're gonna have candidates after New Hampshire. I mean, it may be effectively over. I'm not predicting that. I don't spend a lot of time in the world of predictions, but that's certainly we are moving in that direction right right now. It's what Trump, DeSantis and Nicki Haley.
The debate was canceled because Nicki Haley realizes there's no point of having a debate if Trump's not going to be there. Trump says, what debate, I'm doing my own thing. You guys should drop out. Ramaswami drops out, calls on DeSantis and Haley to drop out. Desantus is over there saying I'll still show up at the debate. The television company that was supposed to be carrying the debate says we're not going to even have the debate because there's no
one left. I mean, it's just it's it's running on fumes. It is inevitable that Trump's gonna be the nominee, and everybody knows this. Everybody knows this, and it makes them the left get crazier. Now to that point, it's entertaining, but it's still absurd that what we have to deal with this sort of stuff. So it's with that backdrop. Jamie Diamond, JP Morgan's CEO. He's on CNBC. I thought it was MSNBC. It's CNBC. And I just want you to listen to this exchange because this is
this is he's talking to the to the media. And these are people that of course have invested every ounce of their the fiber of their being into stopping Trump and it's not worked. And not only has it not worked, you know how people like Jamie Diamond out there saying that we should would be they should be more respectful. So Trump voters, I mean, it's completely coming.
The wheels have come off of this. So I just want you to want to point out I wish the Democrats would think a little more carefully when they talk about mega you know, and you if you travel this country, you know, and the country is unbelievable. We took our butt trip this year and Leslie Picker was on Spokane and Boise and Bo's men. People are growing, they're hungry to grow, they're innovating. It's it's everywhere. It's
not just Silicon Valley. So we've got this great hand. But when people say maga, they're actually looking at people voting for Trump and they think they're voting and they're basically scape going them that you are like him. Uh but I don't think they're voting for Trump because his family values. If you look, just take a step back, be honest. He's kind of right about NATO, kind of right on immigration. He grew the economy quite well,
tax reform worked. He was right about some of China. I don't I don't like what he did us. So you see that though, even when Jamie Diamond is stating the obvious right, Trump was right about the border, He did a good job on the economy. This guy, I don't know who this guy is. On the end, this is squawk box, he chimes in and says China virus, as though you just compare that Trump said China virus to point out that the virus came from China. By the way,
did you see this is in the stack of stuff. I don't want to get off on this topic, but in today's stack of stuff, at the website tied upshow dot com, you can find a story that shows that China was sequencing COVID genetically sequencing COVID nineteen earlier than when they alerted people that they had a problem with COVID nineteen. Remember all the people remember founcing,
ah, this wasn't developed in a lab. None of this stuff happened, that's made up, This was from a wet market or whatever nonsense they were telling us back then. I mean, it's crazy, but to focus on that, To focus on Trump's use of the phrase China virus, even if you find that to be whatever, offensive, xenophobic, racist, whatever, it's not. But even if you go there, are you seriously going to tell me that that is more problematic than the world burning around us? Because
American weakness is in fact, my friend's provocative. Is it worse than inflation? What we've gone through during this term of Biden? An open border? I mean, what is what conceivable reason does anyone have to pick Biden and what he's done, what's been happening in this country pick to pick Biden? And that over Trump calling COVID the China maybe retinue. And I don't like how he said things up the Mexico I don't like, but he wasn't wronged
about these critical issues, and that's why they're voting for him. And I think people should be a little more respectful of our fellow citizens. And when you guys have people up here, you always ask the why, not like it's a binary thing. You're support Trump, you're not support Trump? Why are you supported to hate seventy five million of your fellow Americas? I agree with And you know, the Democrats have done a pretty good job with the
deplorables, ugging on's their bibles and their beer and their guns. I mean, really, could we just stop that stuff and actually grow up and treat other people with respect and listen to them a little bit. And I do think the economy will affect and I think this negative talk about MAGA is going to hurt Biden's electrical campaign. And I just also want to point in, Yeah, sorry the SoundBite leaped there, but basically he was saying, Hey, what I see on this program every day, let's not be bitter.
Let's actually appeal to people's reason and rationale. Let's not assume that just because someone disagrees with us, that they are evil, they are racists, they're sextists, a sexist, homophobic, whatever. This is what has happened. This is what the left has invested everything in. They've gone after Trump to stop him. They've gone after Trump supporters to demoralize them, to isolate them,
to malign them, to destroy them, to break them. That's what's been happening in this country over the past well what is it now, seven eight years, and that they've invested every ounce of their fiber into this and they could not pull it off. Now, I'm not saying that Trump's gonna
win. I'm saying they did all of that work, all of that you talk about misinformation, disinformation, They've invested in all that to get to the point to where Trump is the inevitable nominee, to where it's a clear choice for anyone with any sense whatsoever between Trump and Biden. And now you have people like Jamie Diamond saying, hey, maybe you guys shouldn't be maligning and attacking regular people because there's legitimate reasons why they prefer Trump over Biden. It's
completely falling apart, my friends. It is a beautiful thing to watch. It is a beautiful thing to watch, Like I get enjoyment out of this because they sit behind doors to try to figure out how to deceive you, to how to stop you, to how to stop Trump, to how to just stop the mag of movement, to stop the movement of people that focus on liberty and the constitution. They want to stop all that. They want us to move to the left, following these leaders the status blindly into globalism
and everything else, and it's collapsed. It didn't their objectives with this strategy didn't work. Now again, the election's not over. They're going to try to regroup. They're not done. They never will give up. But it's a beautiful thing to watch. They built their entire narrative on lies and deception, and we knew, we knew that it would eventually collapse. Is collapsing right before our eyes. Quick time out, my friends, back here in
a minute. Welcome back, my friends. I want to shift gears here a little bit. You may have seen this in the news, if not, this is worth noting. Postmillennial dot com Biden administration flagged financial transactions containing terms like MAGA and Trump. Financial Crimes Enforcement Network urged financial institutions in the wake of January sixth, twenty twenty one to look through their customers transactions using search terms like trump and MAGA. We'll talk about that here in just a
moment, but I want to mention to you. I want to mention to you. This segment of the program is brought to you by my friend Eric Wilson at I Sell Health. I Sell Health specializes in individual health plans, group health plans, Medicare, and even even helping to plan a tax free retirement. Eric's been serving clients throughout the country since two thousand and four. This will be his twentieth year. My friends, I know there might be
a Bernie Sanders supporter out there. Pretty basic math, so I think you could have followed that. When I'm kidding, I welcome you to the program. But twenty years he's been serving people around the country. He's an expert in the Affordable Care Act. He's an expert at helping find the plan that makes the most sense for you. This is what he does day in day out. You can talk to Eric, get a free, no cost consultation. He'll walk you through the option so he'll give you his opinion. This
guy has been Eric's a great guy. He's been featured as an expert in healthcare in the Affordable Care Act. He's been interviewed in places. We've talked to him here in the past as well when we were talking about health care, health insurance and all that stuff which comes up from time to time. But he's been lots of places, lots of places. You can call Eric at eight one five three seven, two thirteen sixty three to get that free, no cost, console tation, no pressure whatsoever from Eric, or you
can visit his website, I sell health dot com. That's I sell health dot com eight one five three seven two thirteen sixty three, Eric Wilson of I Sell Health. So let's look here at this well concerning reports again, this is at the postmillennial dot com. I've got this in the stack of the stack of stuff here. This should concern every American, my friends.
I'm just gonna tell you, if I found out our government was trying to identify and politically target people that were of a different political persuasion than me, that would upset me as well. We need more people having that mindset. We can't just think, well, if it happens to me, it's terrible. If it happens to them great or even worse or too bad. Maybe even worse would be to say, if it happens to me, that's terrible. If it happens to them, they deserve it, because it happened to
me. That never ends, Like we have to get to a place in this country where we can say, you know what, the government shouldn't be doing this to anybody. Now. I get, you know, probable cause and investigations if there's real crimes and all this stuff, But this was all part of the performance aspect of how they were, you know, using the
January sixth Committee to do some political theater. And if you read this, which I'm going to read a portion of this and then take a time out, the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government has un or excuse me, has revealed that the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network FINSEN, a bureau of the United States Department of Treasury, urged financial institutions in the wake of January sixth, twenty twenty one, to look through customers transactions using search terms like
trump and MAGA. So they're proactively, proactively telling financial institutions going there and see what these folks are spending money on. Let us know, let us know if anything comes up, because they're probably trying to overthrow the government.
The next paragraph, heir says the letter from the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of Government and the Committee on the Judiciary have obtained documents indicating that following January sixth to twenty twenty one, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network again that's Benson quote, distributed materials to financial institutions that, among other things, outline the typologies of various persons of interest and provide financial institutions with suggested search terms and merchant
category codes MCCs. If you're wondering for identifying transactions on behalf of federal law enforcement, there's a link here to the tweet. These search terms included Trump
and MAGA. Prior Finsen analysis warned financial institutions of quote extremism indicators that include transportation charges such as I think that's true that says changes I don't know if it's supposed to be charges, but nonetheless such as bus tickets, rental cars, or plane tickets for travel to areas with no apparent purpose, or the purchase of books, including religious texts, and subscriptions to other media containing extremist
views. Now, of course it sounds reasonable to say, hey, man, extremist views, extremist views, But it turns out the people who define what those terms mean, can deceive people into what that really is. You know, extremist views and conservatism are not the same thing. Conservatism, my friends, most of this country is in fact conservative. They live their lives
as conservative people because turns out reality forces you to do that. You can't live your life as a leftist if you do, you can't live your life as a leftist living in La la Land without at some point putting your feet on the ground otherwise. I mean, what happens is what we see in our culture. Right, we've got, we've got the trans agenda, we've got I mean even crazier than that in some instances now with other things that
people think that they can identify as and everything else. That is what how unhinged the radical left ideology is. But conservative values like hard work, conservative values like believing that what you earn first and foremost you have a right to keep it, it belongs to you. You have the right to have your own opinions. If your opinions differ from whatever the official position of some governing authority or some bureaucratic entity are, you don't have to agree with those and
by virtue of disagreeing it certainly doesn't make them extremist views, right. I mean, these are loaded statements, and they are using the government to target their political enemies. That's it. To target them, to harass them, to make their lives difficult, to take away their influence and ability to operate and persuade and organize. Is to intimidate others who are watching. This is out of control and cannot happen. And I've got to take a time out
with my friend. Sit tight. You're listening here to conservative not better talk. I'll be back here in just a couple of minutes. Come back to my friends. I don't know if we've not talked about this yet. World Economic Forum is currently has been meeting in Davos here for the past couple of
days. There's some things in the stack of stuff that came from that that came from that here recently, including oh boy, some clips of them simply telling us their plans, which of course they tell us right there to our face, for anybody who wants to see, and it should be terrifying.
But there's some clips of that if you want to see that. They also hosted a panel, a panel on disease X, which of course should also be terrifying as well, and the CEO of Blackrock told attendees that a Trump victory in twenty twenty four poses a fundamental challenge to Europe and probably to the world of course as well. All those things are in the stack of stuff. Don't have time to get to them because the clock is telling me it is time to take a break, and it is indeed, my friend,
sit tight back here in just a minute. All right, my friends, I know the most depressing time of the week for you. I certainly understand as the busy week comes to an end on this program.
