Speaker 1 (00:00):
Make us your number one precent for instant access to
your world. Couldn't live without its fifty five KRC, the
talk station five oh five at the five k r
(00:21):
C the Talking Station. Happy Tuesday, some sense day will
a vacation.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I'm the dude man, and I'm not.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
I am Brian Thomas, and I hope you're eving a
happy Tuesday. Try to make it such if you are
not currently having one. I was feel little bit of
malaysed yesterday, even pointed that on Facebook and thanks to
all the kind of people who are wish me well.
I don't know, LA is a weird thing, man. Just
a lot of problems in the world and you struggle
to try to cope with them and deal with them.
And there's no answer to so many the things you
have to cope with in this life. It can get
(01:04):
you down. And I think coming off vacation also added
to that. But we'll see if we can't muddle through today.
I got some great guests lined up. Thank you to
Joe Strekker, second producer of the fifty five Carse Morning
Show and liner upper of Guesters. Dave Williams Taxpayer Protection
Lines joins us at seven oh five, here's a topic
(01:24):
Congress utter disregard for fiscal responsibility. How many decades we've
been talking about that. I'm not quite sure which direction
Dave's going to go on that one, but we have
a multitude of possibilities for that general subject matter. Also,
you need to extend Trump tax cuts and let's make
it permanent this time. That would require Congress down the
(01:45):
road to actually vote to increase taxes. It's one thing
I always hate about these. You know, when you adjust taxes,
it's just for a limited time and thus requiring Congressional
action when the time period ends, and of course period's
coming up to a close, and everybody's screaming about it,
needing to extend them. Those tax cuts benefit everybody. Don't
(02:06):
believe the Left that these are just tax cuts for
the wealthy. That just drives me crazy. Here that repeated
over and over and over and over again, stirring that
whole class warfare pot just constantly. It's like they're one
trick pony class warfare. Steve Gooden are Legal expert returns
(02:29):
at seven thirty. Great to have Steve on. He can
explain what the hell's going on with the Supreme Court
and this decision on the then as well and prisoners.
And I know it's a temporary thing and involves evidence,
and you know what's going on in the lower courts,
what hasn't been done in the lower courts. But that's
why we have Steve. He brings clarity to otherwise confusing
(02:49):
situations going on in the area of law today, Venezuelan
prisoners and the law. So seven thirty for Steve Gooden.
Always enjoy having him on the program. Today is Tuesday
Ergo the Inside Scoop with bright Bart News. Today we
get Texas Border Associate editor Bob Price to talk about
MS thirteen gang members more rights than Americans apparently. Yeah,
(03:12):
and we have a Democratic judge resigning after harboring a
gang member in his home, which is a really bizarre story.
Somebody wrote wtf at the top of it. Oh, that
was me, new Mexican Democrat judge. They actually had a
trendy Aragua gang member living in their home and the
(03:36):
guy was you know, he filmed himself with automatic weapons
on the range and apparently their daughter has automatic weapons
and let this guy use them. It is absolutely badcrap
in saying bizarre mate may have to touch upon the
details on that one before we get to Bob Price
at eight oh five. But wow, strange things. And then
(03:56):
of course it is Tuesday, so we get the Daniel
Davis deep dive retired to Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis talking
about the latest in Ukraine Russia. Yeah, well the fighting
has resumed, the end of the Eastern Truce and you know,
I don't know it was the reminder of World War Two.
Wasn't there a period of time of World War two
at Christmas time when a World War One? Rather when
they had a ceasefire that went for like a day
(04:18):
or something, And I recall hearing stories about you know,
folks from both sides of the trenches, you know, to
meeting and is sitting down and sharing at least a
moment of peace, you know, having a smoke together, you know,
the Brits on one side of the French and the
Germans on the other, and they stopped fighting for some
small period of time and actually cross the lines and
(04:41):
engage in some measure of humanity together, which really illustrates
the bizarre reality of war, doesn't it that you are
actually literally trying to kill someone across the line that
you have no connection with and if you pause for
a moment and you agree that you neither of you
are going to try to kill each other, you actually
find you've got something in common. Well, that's what the
Eastern Truce was all about. I don't know if they
(05:03):
sat down and broke bread together, the Russians and the Ukrainians,
but they did stop fighting, although of Zelensky argued that
the Russians didn't completely stop fighting, but Putin did declare
yesterday that it's over. He said, our attitude to cease
Fars is positive, and that's why we proposed the initiative,
especially as it was during the Holy Easter days. We've
(05:25):
seen the initial reaction from Kiev, as I believe everyone
did this sentiment, characterize our proposal as playing with lives
and so on, and it's bizarre, isn't it. And when
you step back from it, that because of the Easter
holiday you would stop trying to kill each other, it's
(05:50):
very Christian sentiment. But the moment midnight hits and it's
not Easter anymore, that's when you start killing each other again.
I I'm sorry, I war just so oftentimes doesn't make
any sense to me anyhow, accountability has returned to student loans. Oh,
(06:13):
by the way, if you want to call five one, three, seven, four,
nine fifty, five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to
three Taco with ton five fifty on AT and T phones,
you know I enjoy hearing from the listeners. Anyway, little
bit man, Education secretary, They're coming for your student loans
no longer freebie. President Biden never had the authority to
(06:33):
forgive student loans across the board, as the Supreme Court
held in twenty twenty three, she writes in an open letter.
But for political gain, he dangled the cart of loan
forgiveness in front of young voters, among other things, by
keeping in place a temporary COVID era deferment program. Thus,
the Education Department allowed students to rack up massive debt
(06:54):
that is now long past two. Between twenty one and
twenty four, federal student loan debt increase by more than
sixty billion dollars annually, while the department manipulated repayment plans
and forgiveness policies until only thirty eight percent of student
loan portfolio was in repayment. This is unsustainable for both
(07:17):
students and underscore taxpayers. I am announcing the end of
this dishonest and irresponsible policy. We will confirm the Department's
repayment options to federal court decisions and end the Biden
era practice of zero interests, zero accountability forbearances that are
(07:38):
pushing borrowers into loan delinquency and default. On May fifth,
we will begin the process of moving roughly one point
eight million borrowers into repayment plans and restart collections of
loans in default. Borrowers who don't make payments on time,
we'll see their credit scores go down and in some
cases their wage wages automatically garnished. Why not, because we
(08:01):
want to be unkind to student borrowers. Borrowing money and
failing to pay it back isn't a victimless offense. Debt
doesn't go away, It gets transferred to others. If borrowers
don't pay their debts to the government, taxpayers do. And
let that sink in. Everybody out there who didn't go
into debt and get a college education. That's more people
(08:23):
than those who did. You're the ones that are going
to be shouldering the burden of this. Is that fair
to you? She goes on student loans must always be
paid back because they are unlike other types of consumer loans.
If borrowers stop paying a mortgage or a car payment,
(08:43):
he would go into foreclosure or find his car repossessed.
Student loans have no collateral. It's impossible to repossess a
college degree. That's why they are very rarely discharged even
in bankruptcy. That's the hard truth for borrowers. But I
have another hard truth for the institutions that made empty
promises to students while pocketing their loan dollars. Here's the
(09:06):
good part. Colleges and universities call themselves nonprofits, but for
years they have profited massively off the federal subsidy of loans,
hiking tuition and piling up multi billion dollar endowments while
students graduate six figures in the red. A widely cited
twenty fifteen study found that for every dollar of increased
(09:28):
federal caps on subsidized loans, colleges raised tuition by sixty cents.
Many of the degree granting programs that qualify for student
loans are worthless on the job market, but colleges continue
to accept students to these programs and encourage them to
borrow to pay for them. Accountability is a two way street.
(09:51):
As we pushed to hold student borrowers to account, we
will also push colleges to be responsible and transparent. If
you're a student borrower with a federal loan balance, then
haven't been making payments. You must restart payments now. Our
Federal Student Aid Office is providing every form of assistance
we legally can to ensure that a monthly payment can
(10:13):
fit into your budget. We recently extend the FSA call
center operation with weekend hours to ensure that your individual
questions can be answered. We're also updating the Loans Simulator
to help calculate your easier repayment plan. We also provided
an advanced AI Assistant Aiden to help pinpoint your best
financial strategy. As we plan for the department's future, we
(10:36):
won't leave the loan portfolio and disarray. We are committed
to ensuring that borrowers are paying back their loans, that
they are fully supported in doing so, and that colleges
can't create such a massive liability for students and their families,
jeopardizing their ability to achieve the American dream. Bis McMahon,
US Education Secretary, And isn't that really a great point
(11:02):
she makes on the colleges that encourage this. They don't
sit down with you ahead of time and say, you
know what this degree you're pursuing in humanities or sociology
or fill in the blank, political science. I'll make fun
of myself with my own undergraduate degree. But then again,
I didn't plan on being a political scientist. They use
that as a vehicle to get to law school. I
(11:24):
don't know what I would have done with it. I've
said that before. Then again, I went to the University
of Cincinnati, which was not costing my parents fifty sixty
seventy thousand dollars a year. And thank god to my parents,
as I always give them credit for a well getting
me an education. But in the final analysis, wouldn't it
(11:45):
have been a nice prudent thing to do to sit
down and say, wait a second, what are you going
to do with this degree? Just getting a you know,
the sheepskin hanging on the wall does not guarantee you employment.
Is there a demand for or the degree that you're getting.
(12:05):
Have a fair analysis of that guide students in the
proper direction. It's like something that you know, I'm hoping
that is brought back to K through twelve education, which
is simple home economics, not maybe not balancing a checkbook
anymore since electronics do all that. But I've actually, you know,
discussing budgeting money in versus money going out, how to
(12:28):
maybe not rack up a credit card bill, simple day
to day principles, logic and reason that you will apply
in your life. You can have this similar discussion with
regard to pursuing a college education. First off, what do
you want to do and what are you going to
do with a degree when you get it? Is there
a demand out there in the world for the degree
you're pursuing and if there isn't, maybe you don't want
(12:51):
to go down that road. But it's a great point
also that you can't revot the college degree. I mean
there is no collateral there, loose lending standards pursuing degrees
of little to no value, which means, you know, as
a barista, you may not be able to discharge your
(13:12):
two hundred thousand dollars college debt. So anyway, bring it
some accountability back, which I welcome that. I don't know
how you feel about it, Maybe you feel differently. You
can feel free to call it's five eighteen right now,
be back after these brief words.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
When something makes.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
You say what social Security accounts belonging to people listed
over one hundred and twenty years old.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
When something makes you say why eight million dollars for
making mice transgender?
Speaker 1 (13:44):
When someone makes you say who?
Speaker 6 (13:46):
No one lacks violence, but sometimes violence is necessary.
Speaker 7 (13:50):
When and where will you get the answers? Twenty four
to seven, Paul, this is just crazy right here on
fifty five krs the talk station there is your Channa
nine first one to out of orgas. What do we
got going on today? Partley botty skies turning mostly sunny
at some point.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Seventy two is going to be the high, down to
fifty overnight with a few clouds, seventy eight with mostly
sunny skies. Tomorrow a few clouds overnight, fifty for the low,
and on Thursday mostly body day. Best chance of rain
coming on Friday. There's a slight chance of rain Thursday
seventy nine to high Thursday forty nine degrees. Right now,
fifty five car CD talk station Flove twenty two fifty
(14:34):
five cars talk station five one three seven four nine
fifty five hundred eight hundred eight two three Talk five
pay fifty on AT and T phone. Remember tonight it's
the inside China today, the social political economic situation with
Breitbart World editor Francis Martel. Talk with Francis yesterday about
that fascinating reality. You know what we read in the
papers isn't quite often the realite's real situation. Apparently things
(14:57):
not great in China and nobody's having babies, no one's
getting married. Uh. Economic situation people in the general suff
there's that word again, malaisee, money, money with Brian James
and Christopher Smith Ofman absolutely on fire yesterday. Boy, he
was riled up, most notably about Marift have Purvoll violating
(15:20):
the law and blocking the streets with the protest over
the weekend protest over what a lot of anger in
the Democrats side of the ledger, a whole lot of
anger and just scratching my head over what specifically, And
turning to Gallup, it's got a new poll out confidence
rating for Democratic leadership in Congress now at twenty five percent,
(15:46):
nine points below the previous low of thirty four percent,
which is recorded in twenty twenty three. Contrast that with
confidence Republican congressional leadership, which isn't you know exactly, you know,
through the roof, But at least it's thirty nine percent,
well above the twenty four percent low it hit back
in twenty fourteen. According to the conclusions from Gallup Feeling,
(16:09):
the drop in confidence in the Democratic congressional leadership were
well Democrats. Gallup noted in the release of this poll,
Democratic congressional leaders rating among their own party faithful has
followen forty one points since last year to their lowest
point ever. One might ask themselves why that might be.
(16:35):
Maybe on the wrong side of a lot of the
issues that really are important to Americans. I know, White
House Press Secretary Carolyn Levitt having a go at Democratic
Senator Chris van Holland because well, he went to Al
Salvador to meet with the deported illegal immigrant gang member
and wife, Peter apparently, and pointed out that that trip
(16:56):
was in fact paid by you, the American taxpayer. So
if you're working today, hey, this is what you work
for days in our country, illegally MS thirteen gang member
reported by his wife to be a wife beater, which
(17:18):
anybody listens to my program knows. I have a certain detest,
I mean, really strong, strong anger and resentment and hatred
toward wife beaters and abusers. They're one notch below child
molesters in my mind, she pointed out yesterday and Fox,
he is an illegal alien, a foreign tourist, terrorist, and
(17:42):
criminal MS thirteen gang member who violated our country's loss
by coming here in the first place. Now, how is
it and why is it that the Democrats seems so
interested and desirous of bringing him back into our country.
It seems to such an a strange position to take.
(18:05):
She pointed out, there was a litany of evidence providing
approving Garcia's ties to the gang. It had been confirmed
by two different courts and by multiple law enforcement officers
that he's a gang member. This is who the Democratic
Party is advocating for. It's ridiculous. That's her point, and
that seems to be my conclusion as well, And that
may serve to explain on some level the Gallup poll numbers.
(18:31):
It's defending the indefensible. It's like being angry at dose
for pointing out that we're paying for, you know, transgender
mice surgery or something like that. I mean, there's a
million little things you can point to, and they're angry
about that. I don't know. Listen, it's not my party.
(18:51):
I'm not trying to defend the indefensible. Five on three
seventy eight two to three dogs Zimmer. That's a great
company to call for HVAC needs, Zimmer heating and air conditioning.
They're outstanding of what they do. Customer service is great.
Then around three generations, more than seventy five years making

Cincinnati area home safe, efficient and comfortable. And right now,
if you need a new unit HVAC unit, it's a
perfect time to get in touch with Carrier because you
can save up to fifteen hundred and fifty dollars on
a new Carrier comfort system. It's a great Then Carrier
makes a great system and at fifteen hundred and fifty
dollars savings, that's real money. So you can confidently call
(19:32):
the folks at Zimmer. They do wonderful work. Customer service
couldn't be better. Chris Zimmer can be reached at five

one three, seven four nine fifty eight two three. Talk
rather talk with you than do local stories, So let's
do that. Joey's calling. Hey Joey, thanks for calling this morning.
(20:34):
Welcome to the show.
Speaker 8 (20:37):
Hi, how are you doing today?
Speaker 1 (20:38):
I am doing okay. I hope you can say at
least that much.
Speaker 4 (20:42):
Yeah, yeah, no doubt.
Speaker 9 (20:44):
I'm on my way to work and I'm grateful I
got a job.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Amen.
Speaker 8 (20:48):
Hey, I just wanted to kind of draw a picture here,
what's going on with this guy from a salvad Or.
The Democrats all along have been salivating an opportunity with
the deportation to pick, and they weren't and.
Speaker 10 (21:05):
They'll probably be a couple more, but to pick.
Speaker 8 (21:07):
And find a poster child so that they can run
with that and put that out from all American people
that believe they're nonsense due to the fact that the.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
Media lies and illustrates so.
Speaker 11 (21:20):
Well for them.
Speaker 10 (21:21):
So what happened. They just hastily picked.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
The wrong guy.
Speaker 8 (21:28):
They're not going to back down, because they don't. They
will look you in the space and lie to you
over anything, all of them will, and stick with it.
Speaker 10 (21:37):
And twist and turn and camouflage their narrative. If you're
not paying attention, you're going to believe it. But they
just picked the wrong one.
Speaker 8 (21:44):
They're not going to back down, and they'n't pick a
couple more.
Speaker 10 (21:48):
And they might find because there is human error at.
Speaker 8 (21:52):
All, these people that got to go back, they might
find where they make a mistake, and they'll find that
perfect seventeen year old that looks like he's twenty.
Speaker 9 (22:00):
Something, and they'll make a martyr out of him.
Speaker 10 (22:04):
There, they'll be a couple of more.
Speaker 4 (22:05):
They be a good.
Speaker 8 (22:06):
Minor, really tug at people's heart strings what we're doing
to the children, And they just picked the wrong guy,
and you're not.
Speaker 4 (22:12):
Gonna let it go.
Speaker 8 (22:13):
And as for the senator, this moron, I'll be careful here.
He's gonna be the next Gavin Nowsan. I think this
jack ass just wants to position himself to be the
next coming. And look what he's done to run for president.
That's what I think. I don't even know why I ask,
(22:33):
because they'll be easy to be destroyed, But I think that's.
Speaker 9 (22:36):
What's going on.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Yeah, I think it's in this student observation. You're right,
it was. It was sort of ready fire aim with
them selecting this El Salvador or this this gang member
to be the bridge or the hill upon which they die.
But yeah, you're right, and they won't admit error and
they won't back down, and it just makes them look
worse and worse because the more information that comes out,
(22:58):
the more this gets talked about, the more people become
aware that he has already been identified at two courts
of law, as an MS thirteen gang member, that his
wife did report him to the police for being a
wife beater, and that there's nothing and nothing at all
that is redeemable about this person's character, and that he
did come into our country illegally in the first place.
(23:18):
I mean, that's one of the weirdest elements of this.
He was in here, he came in illegally. He's an
illegal alien, and we're trying to bring him back into
the country. They're facilitating like it's a second act of
lawbreaking by you know, we get him out and then
they'll bring him back in what so he can go
(23:39):
through a deportation hearing and then get chucked out again,
which is really, in the final analysis, exactly what would happen.
So it's just that's what makes this all crazy. But yeah,
you're right, there will be another one. This isn't the
only one. They will find somebody who has been perhaps
wrongfully deported, perhaps and then they'll make that the next
(24:01):
poster child. But in the grand scheme of things, I mean,
here's a really an interesting fact. Given the number of
border crossings, get a load of the difference between President
Biden's border policies and Trump's porter policies one and eighty
nine thousand, six hundred and four, which are the number
(24:25):
of illegal immigrants border patrol agents caught and released into
the United States in one month. That will be December
twenty twenty three. Again, the number one hundred and eighty
nine thousand, six hundred and four one single month. The
number of illegal immigrants agents caught and released in the
(24:47):
United States in February twenty twenty five twenty. Has there
been a new law put on the books?
Speaker 9 (24:56):
Nope?
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Did we need a new law put on the books? Nope.
I remember them screaming their heads off about Donald Oh,
it's Donald Trump's fault that we didn't get immigration reform.
We the immigration reform bill, not even reform, basically solidified
and codified into law. Biden's bought open border policy and
Donald Trump was not in office at the time that
that thing got shot down. The Republicans in Congress decided
(25:19):
they didn't want to advance it because it would basically,
you know, memorialized Biden's open border policies. It was a
nonsensical bill in the first place, but they got all
up in arms and riled up about it. Well, there's
nothing we can do about it without a new piece
of legislation. Nonsense. Donald Trump comes in office and look
twenty Caughton released in one month versus one eighty nine,
(25:44):
six hundred and four again in December twenty twenty three,
one month. And this possibility with that vast quantity of
numbers and we've heard numbers between ten and twenty million
during the Biden administration and illegally coming into our country. Yeah,
there may very well be someone in that mix who
(26:06):
goes through some sort of deportation process who is wrongfully deported,
and that person, that loan individual, become the next poster
child for the Democrats to stream and cry about. But
what about the other what ten million or more people
that aren't supposed to be here and have no justifiable
legal basis to stay in the country. It's like, you know,
(26:30):
demonizing the entire police department because yeah, there's a bad
egg in there. Go to work today. I don't care
how big your building is or how many people work there.
I bet there's one bad egg among all the other
folks in your office that do great work. There's a
bad one in there. Thus is life, Thus is society.
Thus it has ever been mistakes can be made, and
(26:55):
they are made, they can be undone, and they can
be fixed. But when the Democrats get a hold of
something like this, it's as if every single act, every
single effort, is all bad, it's all demonized, it's all wrong,
and that's just nonsense. By thirty seven fifty five Carcy
(27:19):
Detalk Station QC. Kinetics not nonsense. It's to help get
rid of your pain. You get our thrtis pain, you've
been seeing the doctor. I know a lot of people
that go to the doctor because our theright is pain.
Maybe it hurts why you're in bed, Maybe it hurts
when you put your feet down on the floor. Maybe
you can't walk the dog, maybe you can't play pickleball,
maybe you can't pick up the grandchildren. It's pain, knee pain,
(27:40):
hit pain, wherever the pain happens to be. And their
doctors talk to you about surgery, and you're thinking about surgery,
and you're thinking about, well, the downsides of surgery, the
risk that go along with surgery, the recovery time that
goes along with surgery, and you're done with the pain meds.
So what about thinking along a different line? And all
natural approach aren't your own bodies healing properties to treat
(28:02):
the root cause of our thritis pain. That's QC kinetics
life changing for so many people, tens of thousands of
satisfied patients throughout the United States. We've got them right
here in Cincinnati now. And what you have is in
office procedure with no surgery and no downtime, providing lasting
relief from chronic joint pain. To find out if you're
a good candidate, and I guess not everybody is, but listen,
(28:24):
you get a free consultation up front, so why not
take them up on and find out if QC kinetics
regenitive properties and treatments are right for you. Here's the
number to call for that free consultation. Five one three
eight four seven zero zero one nine five one three
eight four seven zero zero one nine again five one
three eight four seven zero zero one nine.

shall we? Fox nineteen reporting from Ludlow, Kentucky. Loudlou City
council members voted I guess yesterday to keep one of
their council members after being accused of licking a city
(30:04):
administrator's hand. Why are you doing that? After what they
describe as hours of witness testimony, the council voted to
keep Abigail Miller on the council. She said quote, I'm thankful.
I'm thankful I got to stay where the people elected
me to stay on city council. So I'm thankful specifically
to mister Ziegler for keeping me on council. Close quote.
(30:26):
Miller accused of licking a former police chief and now
Ludlow City administrator Scott Smith after his interview. According to witness,
Smith filed a complaining against Miller for sexual harassment and battery,
claiming she licked his hands before hand rather before a
job interview. Why are you doing that? I don't know
if we ever going to find out to remove a
member Apparently unanimous voters required. Miller's attorney claimed Smith, along
(30:49):
with other witnesses, had a hand in manipulating the process
to become city administrator after someone else was selected first.
Smith denies the claim that he was trying to influence
a council, saying, quote, it was no surprise that they
came after me personally, making it everything about every issue
other than what was issue at hand, And the issue
(31:09):
at hand is that she licked me unwanted, and there's
no punishment for it. Close quote. Smith has not stated
whether he will file a criminal complaint. You see no
answer to the question why are you doing that?
Speaker 10 (31:26):
Don't vote Democrat?
Speaker 1 (31:28):
In under what circumstances would you'd lick someone's hand? I mean,
you know, is there a flag for that one? Joe,
at least not in a public setting. Two teachers in
Battle Louis battl Rouge, Louisiana, have been placed on leave
(31:50):
after an altercation between them, according to authorities. One of
the teachers now facing criminal charges. Baton Rouge Police Department
said two teachers got into a fight bel air head
Start around ten am last Wednesday. The officials say thirty
five year old Ashley Daniels was issued to summons for
misdemeanor simple battery court of officials. Both teachers were placed
on administrative leave while the Bretton Rouge Police and the
(32:12):
city parish Human Resource Department investigate head Start program, described
as a preschool read in his program, typically serving children
between the ages of three and five. Program manager doctor
Carr Tina Roberts deferred comment on the matter to the
parish's communications team. Spokeswoman Fallon Brown for the city parish
(32:35):
wrote in a statement, the Safety and wellbeing of the
children in our care as our highest priority. We will
not tolerate conduct that compromises the integrity of our educational
environment or the trust in our community. Children of Baton
Rouse serve a safe, respectful and supportive learning atmosphere. Brown
added that a critical incident report about the fight has
been submitted to parish officials and is being reviewed as
(32:55):
part of the investigation. Sadly, that's it no additional details
on why they got into a fight, which is ultimately
the best advice that you can probably take. Five point

Five forty or five fifty one VideA five krsit the

takers duvide men admitted to smoking a joint during a
traffic stop. Richland police officers is Mississippi pulled over the
(35:46):
vehicle for a traffic violation officer smelled weed. The driver,
Carl Dominio Demino, fifty eight years old, admitted to smoking
and handed the officer of the joint. It was at
that point the officer carried out a probable cause search
of the vehicle and found more than one hundred and
(36:08):
twenty ecstasy pills, more than three pounds of pure ecstasy
or MDMA, five pounds of psychedelic mushroom, twelve files of
pure LSD, half a pound of marijuana, and two digital
scales street vet street value two hundred grand. Not surprisingly,
(36:28):
he was arrested charged with drug trafficking, and police say
that he had been arrested more than twenty times previously
and had been convicted of at least a dozen felonies
in seven states. That was where I was going. They
go to Cambria County, Pennsylvania, where authorities there say local
man's now facing charges after being accused of inappropriately touching
(36:50):
a male employee at an area sheets store earlier in
the month. Please say, forty nine year old Keith Poplinsky
allegedly groped the employee well he was reportedly cleaning the
coffee machines at the grouser street sheets location. Why are
you doing that? Cord of the affida. But I think
you can come up with your own conclusion on that, Joe,
Please say the leg Yeah, there you are. Ledge incident
(37:13):
captured on Yes the stores surveillance footage in best gotta say.
Poplenski was reportedly waiting for a food order when he
proceeded to repeatedly touch the victim near his groin area.
How hard is it? Well, since it was an unwelcome advanced, Joe,
(37:33):
I'm gonna go with not very police note of the
employee did tell Poplensky to stop touching him?
Speaker 4 (37:41):
What mean?
Speaker 1 (37:42):
Court to the surveillance video authority say that after the incident,
Poplinski allegedly attempted to shake the employee's hand. Please say
the victim told obviously he did not know Poplinski personally
and only knew him as a frequent customer of the store.
Poplenski charged with misdemeanors for disorderly conduct and open lewdness.
(38:08):
A man who police say was erratic and bit an
officer during an arrest, suffered a medical emergency and dropped dead.
Fulton police officers first bought of the man until about
twelve thirty in the morning after closing hours at Lemon
Park Corning Department news released Please say the man looked
to be holding a smoldering cardboard box and was acting erratically.
(38:34):
As more officers showed up, police said the man became
uncooperative and began to physically resist. More officers then called
to provide assistance, and according to the department, that took
several of them to gain control of the guy and
put him in restraints. As officers were taking the man
into custody, he violently bit an officer on the arm,
causing injuries. Fulton Fire Department were trying to treat both
(38:58):
the suspect and the officer. Several minutes later. According to
the release the arrest, he appeared to have a medical emergency.
Police said. Paramedics began life saving measures and took the
man to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Idiots doing idiot things because they're idiots.
Speaker 4 (39:16):
You know.
Speaker 1 (39:16):
I was thinking this would have more of an Epstein
air of mystery to it, you know, like he was
put in his cell and then they came back later
and that's when they found him dead. Yeah, well that
could be that the police officer was poisonous. They supposed
the small potential of that officer who was bitten, was
(39:37):
treated at the hospital and then released. Investigators with the
orange kinted District Attorney's Office responded for an independent investigation
into the death.
Speaker 4 (39:45):
And that's it.
Speaker 1 (39:49):
Now, you heard, probably at the top of the air
news I did this other one. Some idiot went around
with a chainsaw and cut down dozens of trees all
across downtown Laws Angeles.
Speaker 3 (40:04):
What the hell?
Speaker 1 (40:10):
What is to be gained by that? Anyhow, the mystery
will never be answered or solved. Stick around at six
o'clock hour coming, I've got more to talk about. Your
phone calls are always welcome. Five one, three, seven, four, nine,
fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three talk.
I'll be right back covering Trump's first one hundred days.
Speaker 11 (40:27):
Every day, promises made, promises kept.
Speaker 1 (40:30):
Fifty five krs the talk station. It's six oh five,
coming up at six or six fifty five kr CEB
talk station right the time. I see you, wishing everyone
a happy Tuesday and inviting you to stick around. Looking
forward to Dave Williams for the Taxpayer Protection Line. So
we'll be on in an hour. First topic, Congress utter
disregard for a fiscal responsibility. I just laugh at that.
(40:51):
It's like, you know, yeah, we're thirty six coming up
with thirty seven trillion dollars in the hole. Your debt
services are trillion dollars a year. That's our credit card
interest rate payment. I mean, yeah, we've got disregre utter
disregard for fiscal responsibility. And yes, Republicans and Democrats, everyone
across the board bears responsibility for that. They'll talk about
the need to extend Trump tax cuts, which, of course
(41:14):
deadline's approaching on that reconciliation I think is the mechanism
for that. Dave Williams will address those topics, follow by
the legal expert Steve Goodin from a Porter right, excellent
lawyer he is. He's going to break down the Supreme
Court's decision on the venezuel and the prisoners inside scoop
with Bright Barton News. Fast forward to eight oh five
Bob Price, the Texas Border Associate editor. He'll talk about
(41:37):
the MS thirteen gang members having basically more rights than Americans,
and also the Democratic judge I had to resign after
harboring a gang member in his and his wife's home,
which is just the most bizarre story. Plus it is Tuesday,
so we get the Daniel Davis Deep Dive with the
latest on Ukraine and Russia. Feel free to call love
(42:01):
to hear from the listeners of Something You Want to
Talk About five one, three, seven, four nine fifty five hundred,
eight hundred eighty two to three talk go with pound
five fifty on AT and T phones. We were talking
about this insane Senator Chris van Holland and his trip
down to visit this Kilmar Armando Arbregio Garzia guy. And
I've had Ken Blackwell in the program many many times
over the years. Just think, really, I think the world
(42:23):
of Ken Blackwell. And he addressed that in a broader
context and is uh an opinion piece he wrote for
town Hall, And I thought it was, you know, he
made some student observations and you know, sort of illustrating
the Trump administration moving in the right direction as contrasted
to the Biden administration, who basically was going after well
(42:44):
moms and dads who cared about the content of what
their children were learning in school. How did he bring
all those together? Don't tell Senator Chris van Holland, but
the On April seventeenth, the Department of Justice released detailed
evidence demonstrating how Kilmar Armando Igo Garcia, whom Senator Van
Holland and his fellow Democrats falsely portrayed as an innocent
(43:05):
Maryland father, is not only an illegal immigrant, but also
a violent member of the rural Ms thirteen gang. Apartment
of Homeland Security also provided court documents showing Garcia's wife
had previously sought the domestic violence restraining order against him,
accusing him of assault and other forms of abuse. It's
the clearest sign yet that the adults are back in
(43:28):
charge of protecting America's homeland, and that's great for America's safety.
This degree of coordination between the Department of Justice and
the Department of Homeland Security under Trump's leadership stands in
start sharp contrast to the Biden administration, where both agencies
work together to advance the Biden administration's radical political agenda
(43:51):
instead of protecting public safety. Under the leadership then Secretary
Aleander Maiorchis, Biden's DHS did everything could to maximize the
mass illegal immigration of suspected terrorists and violent criminals who
preyed on American citizens. Secretary of MYIARCHUS stopped construction of
Trump's border wall, and kept Ice and Border patrol from
(44:13):
doing their jobs when a surgeon border crossings Biden specifically
asked for became a political liability for Democrats, and Attorney
General Mery Garland coordinated to massively expand temporary protected status
and created the CHNV program, parolling hundreds of thousands of
unvetted migrants into the US interior, complete with an app
(44:36):
to streamline the process. Things weren't any better at Biden's
Department of Justice. Garland presided over a DOJ that targeted
Catholic parishes, inflated to domestic extremism statistics, and labeled concerned
parents as potential terrorists. Remember those days, Peaceful pro life
(45:01):
activists were arrested at gunpoint, while left wing extremists who
threatened Supreme Court justices or firebombed crisis pregnancy centers were ignored.
You know, and you can think about all the violence
that was you wielded on our cities with ANTIFI and
Black Lives Matter groups and these crazy leftists running them
(45:21):
up in the streets, throwing at frozen bottles of water
at police officers and fireworks and torching buildings, doing literally
millions of dollars worth of damage. Do you ever hear
about any prosecutions for them? Nothing. Garland also appointed Special
Council Jack Smith under dubious legal authority to imprison Biden's
(45:44):
chief political rival. At the same time, the DOJ's Anti
Trust Division attempted to blame private companies like Visa for
the inflation caused by Biden's federal overspending. That's not an exaggeration.
When Biden's big government stimulus spending helped drive inflation to
a thirty year high. The DOJ's response was the sue
(46:05):
Visa for charging merchants roughly zero point two to three
percent in debit card transaction fees, translating into about fourteen
cents on a sixty dollars purchase. The case was an
embarrassing attempt to scapegoat to private company for Democrat induced inflation.
Added all up, and it becomes clear that Biden's DOJ
(46:29):
and DHS were not focused on public safety, national security,
or the rule of law. They were focused on politics.
Now that's changing. Trump's team is showing the country what
it looks like when the DOJ and DHS returned to
the core mission of protecting American citizens. They're working together
(46:50):
to go after real threats. Not parents, not pro lifers,
not credit card companies, but violent gang members, abusers, and
foreign nationals who break our laws and endanger our communities.
Restoring credibility and functionality of these agencies after four years
of abuse is a significant step in rebuilding trust with
the American people. Real justice means enforcing the law fairly, consistently,
(47:16):
and with the goal of public safety. And for the
first time in four years, that's finally happening. You know,
I look back on the four years of the Biden
administration as I reflect on Ken Blackwell's words, it is
really an amazing thing to behold, and most notably the
realities of that open border. Look at what happened. Cities overrun,
(47:44):
I mean cities that are already struggling financially, overrun schools, overwhelmed,
children who can't speak English, barely can speak English, if
at all, holding back your children from getting an education
because we have to accommodate those kids. They've got to
learn English. Resources precious scarce resources allocated to dealing with
(48:07):
schools overwhelmed by a bunch of young people coming in
out of nowhere based on an open border, intentionally open
border strategy. And I find it out that it's like
no one ever really wanted to get to the bottom
of the whys and wherefores that the Biden administration was
(48:27):
engaged in and letting every human being in the world
come into our country. I know they were all hoping
to make them citizens someday and get Democrat voters and everything,
but you know that's not going to happen, at least
I don't see it happening. And look what it had
(48:48):
the effect of doing. Donald Trump won the presidency, and
that may be in large part because of Kamala Harris
and Joe Biden, who obviously was cognitively impaired, and apparently
every single human being working with the Biden administration knew
it and covered it up. Books are coming out from
people who were otherwise defenders of Joe Biden during this
period of time when we all could see his cognitive decline.
(49:11):
You know, believe your own eyes, there he is stumbling around,
sounded like a complete idiot. Something's wrong with the man.
We all knew and could easily figure it out. No, no, no,
sharpest men in the room. No no, no, his defenders
would say, defenders who are now coming out with books
talking about how his impairment was well known among the staff,
and they did everything they could to hide it from
(49:32):
the world. I mean, we were lied to over and
over again. We the American people who elected these clowns
to ride herd over affairs and past legislation or otherwise,
you know, dictate the terms and conditions of our life.
We find out were absolute liars and pivoting over. They
(49:56):
allowed our country to be overrun with people who had
no legal wor right to be in our country, and
yet soak up all the valuable resources that we can
barely manage for our own populace. And it took the
Trump administration to come in with Elon Musk to find
out that all the Social Security numbers that are out
there for people who are three hundred years old or whatever,
(50:18):
they're being used for nefarious purposes. Checks are going out
to people who shouldn't be getting checks, and illegal immigrants
who have no right to work in this country legally
are using social Security numbers to work. One little sliver
of what Doze is uncovered, but the damage that was
(50:43):
done that was all intentional. And as I turned back
to that gallup pole with people's in Democrats' confidence in
Congress and their elected officials is down in the bottom
of the barrel. Do you think maybe they got it wrong?
(51:04):
You think of all the inroads that were made into
the black population and the Hispanic population in this country
when Trump got elected and won the popular vote, when
you look at the numbers and the statistics that show, yes,
many people in the black community and many people in
this Spanic community voted for Donald Trump in numbers that
(51:25):
were really surprising to the Democrats. Oh my god, what's
going on here? Maybe people woke up, Maybe people understood
that what the Democrats were doing to America was not
good for Americans generally, regardless of what race, or religion,
or ethnicity or whatever they are. And now they're running
(51:47):
around organizing protests and screaming fascist and Nazi, just screaming
at the top of their lungs as if that's a
policy platform that that's going to get them elected. Just
exhibitions of outright rage and anger. How do you what
do you translate that into in terms of you know
what I want to be elected because I plan on
(52:08):
doing the following rage, rage, anger, anger, Nazi, nazi nazi. Yeah,
but what do you plan on doing? What's what's your
idea for the What's what's your recipe for success in
America for all American people? What do you plan on doing? Rage? Rage, anger, anger, anger?
Speaker 2 (52:28):
You know, let them go.
Speaker 1 (52:29):
I I've said it before. I just like they seem
to be digging themselves their own hole. I'm just befuddled
by the whole thing. And no, I don't think Trump's perfect.
I'm a little worried about this trade war that's coming.
I'm a little concerned about what these tariffs are going
to do. Legitimate concerns shared by people of all political stripes.
I mean, go ahead, read about it all the time.
(52:49):
I don't know if that's right or wrong. I'm gonna
find out myself along with you got my popcorn out.
There's not a damn thing I can do about it
except live through whatever happens, and you know what, maybe
you'll end up working out, maybe it won't. We're living
in an experiment here. But at least he's trying to
right this ship, and most notably in the area of
(53:12):
illegal immigration. He's trying to get rid of the worst
of the worst, and you got this idiot Van Holland
going down and entertaining and hoping to bring back an
MS thirteen gang member who beats the crap out of
his wife. Keep digging, Brian, You're gonna have to hang on.

Speaker 1 (55:36):
Twenty three THIK five KRCD talk stations jump straight to
the phone. Frian was kind enough to hold over the break. Brian,
thanks for holding. Welcome to the program.
Speaker 10 (55:44):
Hey, thanks for having me on.
Speaker 9 (55:47):
Can you hear me?
Speaker 1 (55:48):
Yeah? Absolutely loud and clear.
Speaker 4 (55:49):
Okay, okay.
Speaker 10 (55:51):
So I remember before the election, Brian, you were I
seemed like you and I were listening. You were saying,
like Trump is the devisive you know, is there anyone
else better? And at the time when I was listening
to you, I was getting frustraed. I was one of
this kind of you know, I'm a Trump for guy. Yeah,
you do you see anyone at this point now that
he would say, h there's no one better than Trump.
(56:12):
I mean, when you look around at Congress and the
different politicians, do you see someone else that would.
Speaker 4 (56:18):
Job? No.
Speaker 1 (56:20):
I'm with you. I am actually shocked and amazed at
what he's been able to accomplish because I think he
had that first four years under his belt. He had
to learn the system, learn the process, deal with the
idiots and the bureaucrats, and figure it out. And then
so he hit the ground running. He hit the ground sprinting.
I've been amazed at what he's been able to do,
(56:40):
and I'm very happy the man got elected. You know,
and I listen, I can't read, you know, tea leaf
reading is you know, everybody's political. Every It's like being
an economist. You know, you guess and maybe you're right,
maybe you're wrong. I had my reservations, obviously, I spoke
out loud about them. He got the nomination. He beat
the crap out of Kamala Harrison. That doesn't surprise me,
(57:00):
because she was a clown in a buffoon. But what
he's been able to accomplish in the first, you know,
a couple of months of his presidency has been amazing.
And I think that's because he had a team behind
the scenes, knew exactly the direction that they wanted to go,
and had everything ready so that he could hit the
ground running. I mean, all did' you should think, Brian,
all those executive orders had already been drafted and piled
(57:23):
up in a room somewhere before he got elected. I
mean they had to have been he was ready to go,
and it's been impressive, so absolutely, I eat my words.
I'm glad he's there. I'm glad he's doing the job
he's doing, and I wish him all the best in
the world. My only concern happens to be with tariffs.
Speaker 2 (57:39):
But you know what, what do I know.
Speaker 1 (57:41):
I'm not an economist. I don't play one on radio.
I just I know about the smooth Holly Terriff Act
and how bad it was for our economy here. But
we'll see what happens. The world's a different place now.
But yeah, yeah, you're right, Brian, no question about it.
I think we're much better off. Chuck, you don't mind
holding I'd be happy to take your call right out
of the gate. I am out of time. It is

Speaker 1 (59:09):
This is the Sean Hannity Morning Minute.
Speaker 14 (59:13):
In this new poll that came out about potential twenty
twenty eight candidates a Yelle youth poll. It points out
it found that both men are upside down with their
party's young voters, and they found a plurality of Democrats
would vote for Kamala Harris twenty seven point five percent,
AOC twenty one point three percent, Pete Buddha Judge Pothold
(59:36):
Pete fourteen percent. No other Democrat got more than five
percent of the votes. The top three candidates were the
same among young Democrats only with even stronger support for
Harris at thirty seven point four percent a Casio Cortes
at twenty eight point two percent, which, by the way,
if your Kamala, you should be paying very close attention
to it, from.
Speaker 1 (59:56):
Coast to coast, from c to Shining Sea. It's a
Sean Hannity show.

Chuck Ingram on fifty five kre see the talk station.
Speaker 1 (01:01:54):
Six thirty Tuesday, and a happy one to You're gonna
get straight to the phones. Chuck was kind enough to
hold over the brake. Chuck, welcome to the Morning Show.
Thanks for calling this morning.
Speaker 9 (01:02:02):
All right, good morning. I'm not a smart guy. But
didn't the Trump say that these MS thirteen and that
other game is a terrorist organization?
Speaker 1 (01:02:12):
Yes, he designated them as a foreign terrorist organization.
Speaker 9 (01:02:16):
Okay, so when that senator went down there, that's aiding them, betting.
Speaker 1 (01:02:21):
He could probably make that argument, Chuck. I haven't say
anybody else make that argument yet, but yeah, I.
Speaker 9 (01:02:28):
Mean if I did it with ISIS or the Taliban
I would go to jail.
Speaker 1 (01:02:33):
I yeah, yeah, honestly, I don't know what the legal
ramifications are, what the legal the points are, the factors
that go into actually fulfilling the aiding and a betting.
But it sure looks it sure looks like it. They're right,
it does. That's what makes it. That's what makes it
so stupid. You know that somebody else called in and
(01:02:55):
like you know, they maybe they inadvertently glombed onto this
guy thinking he really was this in sent father and
as it turns out, no, he's been adjudicated a gang
member and he's a wife beater. His wife turned him
into the cops. And I mean, they picked the wrong guy.
But apparently this is the hill they want to die
on now. So yeah, we'll aiding it a better terrorism
on top of it. Let them let him keep it up,
(01:03:18):
chuck right, let him.
Speaker 4 (01:03:20):
Going.
Speaker 1 (01:03:21):
Thanks man, that was good. I appreciate the call.
Speaker 4 (01:03:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:03:29):
I suppose if he brought him back, and it wouldn't
that be you know, again, the original it broke the
broke the law coming across the border in the first instance,
because he was not legally authorized to enter the country.
So and then if if he brought him back in this.
Wouldn't that be like a double offense. You know, we
(01:03:49):
can make all kinds of arguments. Let's see what Pat's
got this morning. Pat, Welcome to the Morning Show. Happy
Tuesday to you.
Speaker 15 (01:03:56):
Same to you, Brian. There are more and more.
Speaker 9 (01:04:01):
Uh.
Speaker 15 (01:04:01):
I don't know if it's Congress or senators, but apparently
I think they're already down there and they're also trying
to get this Guarcia guy out. But what I noticed
Trump had showed a picture of his hands, but when
he was down there with Van Holland, his hands were
(01:04:23):
under the table. He never had his hands above the
table because apparently the tattoos on his hands apparently showed
the gang.
Speaker 3 (01:04:32):
Yeahver their thing is.
Speaker 1 (01:04:34):
Yeah, I've read that he has MS thirteen I guess
across his knuckles or something like that.
Speaker 15 (01:04:40):
Yeah, So anyway, sweetheart, you'd be careful and pray for
the children.
Speaker 1 (01:04:45):
Thank you very much, take care of yourself, appreciate the
call as always. Yeah, I didn't. I hadn't observed that
in the interview that he was hiding his hands. But yeah,
apparently his well tattooed, as most of those MS. Thirteen
folks are. And you know, think about that as a
(01:05:06):
point of evidence. If you're trying to prove somebody as
a member of MS thirteen, if you've got an MS
thirteen tattoo, I mean, I'm not sure that that is
proof positive that you're an MS thirteen gang member. But
who among us would go out and get an MS
thirteen tattoo if we weren't affiliated with MS thirteen one,
(01:05:30):
because you probably don't want to be affiliated with him
if you're not, so why would you want people to
think you are? And second, if an MS thirteen gang
member sees you with an MS thirteen tattoo and knows
you not to be part of their gang, I imagine
you might get a world of hurt unleashed on you
(01:05:50):
or appropriating their gang symbol, just saying let's see what
Mike Scott, Mike, thanks for calling this morning. Welcome to
the Morning Show.
Speaker 16 (01:05:57):
And right now, the guy for thirteen is the Democrats
want to bring him back. But how are they going
to bring him back? As the President said.
Speaker 11 (01:06:07):
I'm not going to give him back.
Speaker 16 (01:06:08):
Trump said, now he's not coming back. That one of
them bringing back that would be given trafficking. So they
get in trouble for that.
Speaker 1 (01:06:16):
Well, That's kind of what I was thinking, because you're facilitating,
you know, an illegal immigrant gang member, and I guess
terrorist organization member coming into the country would go back
to that aiding and abetting a terrorist organization kind of thing. Yeah,
it doesn't make any sense. None of this makes any sense,
which is what's so baffling about all of this. I mean,
(01:06:39):
if you are they incapable of stepping outside of themselves
and you know, licking their finger and testing the political
wins to see if this has actually any appeal even
among their own constituents, I just think they're locked in
their own echo chamber that they think this is what
(01:07:01):
everyone really truly wants. So maybe I'm the one in
an echo chamber. I just don't I mean, I just
don't see it as you know, good for America, good
for American politics. None of this is positive for the
American populist generally speaking, regardless of political stripe. You know,
I kind of feel the same way about this, them
falling on the sort of of allowing you know, trans
(01:07:26):
athletes to compete against women in women's sports. Now, if
you're a parent, I mean, this is like something in
a conversation I had with Christopher Smith, and all the time,
he's got a daughter, she's a swimmer. He doesn't want
men competing against his daughter. They have an unfair physical advantage.
And I'll go back to world records. Look at all
the world records. In pretty much any damn sport out there,
(01:07:46):
men have an advantage, and yet they stand up. Main
democrats want of women their own constitution to codify allowing
trans athletes in girls sports. Is that really what the
City is of Maine actually want, because if it is,
I'm baffled by that. I'm just it makes absolutely no
(01:08:08):
sense to me. And it's not that I have some
sort of ill will or hatred towards someone because they
believe they're of a different gender. Actually, on many levels,
feel sorry for them. And you know, don't you know,
you don't have to have pity for me. But you know,
from a logical, reasonable and fairness standpoint, I don't mind
(01:08:32):
that you live among us in society. I don't bear
any ill will towards you as a member of society.
Get a job, go to work, participate, you go vote,
do what you need to do. But when it comes
down to participating against women in sports, that's not fair.
(01:08:53):
Six thirty seven fifty five k s the talk station
chime in five and three seven four nine fifty five hundred,
eight hundred and eighty two three talking get yourself USA
Insulation get a free inspection. I usually bring it. The
free inspection is great because they'll give you a free
quote on USA Insallation's Premium foam in your exterior home.
But if you're one of those homes that is older
(01:09:15):
but not pre mid seventies, then you probably have insulation
in the exterior walls. And I love using my daughter's
home as an example because we bought USA Premium Foam
as the housewarming gift for her and her fiance. Now,
they only had R twelve in the house when it
was built, and that was R twelve back then in
the late seventies when it was built, and it does
not have or did not have R twelve insulate insulative
(01:09:36):
capacity because the stuff breaks down over time, so it
isn't insulating as well. So if you're in that situation,
that's what a free inspection's all about. They'll figure out
what's in the wall, if anything, and whether you can
benefit by the premium foam, And I'm telling you you
can benefit by it. It's the highest R value foam
in the market, made right here in the state of Ohio,
and they have done thousands of homes and everybody gets
(01:09:58):
a smile on their face and the only regret you'll
have is, geez, why didn't I do this sooner? You know,
the heat of summer is going to be barren down
upon us in virtually no time. You are going to
be running your air conditioner and it's going to cost
you a fortune. Energy bills keep going up, guaranteed savings
from USA Insulation, and the comfort will be noticeable and
proven and comfort from day one. Quieter home to start with,
(01:10:20):
but that the distribution of your HVAC is going to
be noticeably improved. So if you got that hot room
in your house, you can ever seem to get a
cool down, that problem will be solved. And you saved
money and it only ninety nine dollars a month interest free.
Many of my listeners have done this and they save
more than that. The product pays for itself. It qualifies
(01:10:41):
you for a twelve hundred dollars energy tax credit when
you're doing next year's taxes, So take advantage of that
or don't as the case may be, it's like getting
a check for twelve hundred dollars. So call for the

Speaker 1 (01:12:06):
Coming to a six forty three fifty five KRCV talks
station after Tuesday five one three seven eighty two to
three talk looking for to David Williams Taxpayer Text Alliance.
After the top of the air, News and Steve Gooden,
our legal expert, can to be talking about the Supreme
Court decision regarding Venezuelan prisoners. Also inside scoop, we'll talk
Texas Border associated ator Bob price Adato five on the
(01:12:27):
MS thirteen gang members having more rights than Americans dominant
topic of conversation this morning. Plus this crazy Democrat judge
had to resigned after harboring a mster or a trade
deer AGWAD gang member. It's a crazy story. Democrat judge
in News Mexico had just resigned from the bench last
(01:12:48):
month after immigration agents arrested this TDA gang member living
at this judge's home, entered illegally in Eagle Pass, Texas,
then was released on an immigration parole because the facilities
were overcrowded, so it was one of those catch and
release kind of guys. Then moved to New Mexico. Federal
(01:13:10):
prosecutors in the District of New Mexico alledged to this
twenty three year old guy named Christian Ortega Lopez illegally
in possession of a firearm and has ties to guess
the violent Venezuelan gang trend. Deer Agua designated as a
foreign terrorist organization, so police arrested this guy executing a
(01:13:34):
search warrant at the home of this New Mexico magistrate,
Judge Joel Kano and his wife, Nancy Kano, former police officer,
allowed Ortego Lopez to file a requests for immigration reliefs
using the judge's residential address. Court exhibits also posted on
(01:13:56):
social media show the foreign national posing with the judge,
and these photographs are all over the place. Court records
showed that Ortego Lopez Venezuela Nashal entered the United States
illegally again at Eagle Pass during the peak of the
Biden border crisis December of twenty twenty three, when one
hundred and eighty nine thousand people were caught and released
(01:14:19):
in that one month, so the eagle passed. Detention facilities overcrowded,
so they let him go. Social media posts obtained by
the US Attorney's Office for the District of New Mexico
showed Ortego Lopez and other illegal aliens at a shooting range,
possessing multiple firearms and a large quantity of handgun and
(01:14:40):
rifle ammunition, and one image the man holding an AR
fifteen rifle in one hand and a semi autgomatic pistol.
In another video showed the Venezuelan migrant and possession of
another AR fifteen equipped with a suppressor, fired the rifle
until it was empty, then reloaded it with a new
magazine and continued to fire. This accord of the statement
from the US Attorney's Office. Photos of the video showed
(01:15:01):
Ortego Lopez displaying gang tattoos reflecting he's a trend de
Iragua member. This get his report of the Venezuelan national
move to l pass so after being released by the
border patrol agents, then he roomed with five other people
(01:15:22):
and while living there he met Nancy Kanno, the judge's wife,
and began doing some construction and handyman jobs for her,
and at that point she extended an offer for this
guy to move into what they call the casita behind
her home. I guess it's like an outbuilding or something.
Other images from Ortega Lopez his cell phone, obtained by
Breitbart show graphic images of multiple decapitated and mutilated bodies.
(01:15:46):
This is the kind of guy you want to invite
in your house. Hey, Joe, you got any extra space
in your house? Ortego Lopez currently in the Donna Ana
Kunty Detention Center where he's ards with being an illegal
alien in possession of firearms. At this point, it isn't
clear if Judge Conna or his wife Nancy will be
(01:16:08):
charged with harboring an illegal alien or providing material sport
too a foreign terrorist organization. Going back to the point
the caller made earlier, can that senator be charged with
supporting a foreign terrorist organization by visiting the guy in
(01:16:29):
prison in albert El Salvador, don'na. We'll see if he
brings them back. What might happen? This is just crazy.

Station six fifty two fifty five care CD talk station
just heard that commercial for Herbert and I had asked
Joyce said he's still alive. Huh, Just isn't that a
tribute concert? So no, he's ninety and bully for him anyway,
(01:19:17):
if you're my age, you remember when those songs were
playing on the radio all the time. You need to
get a real ID, and I guess the deadline is
coming as fast approaching, so hurry up and get your
real ID. That is, if you plan on flying American
is going to need a real ID, federally compliant driver's license,
or other identification that meets higher standards than your plain
old state issues license in order to easily travel by air.
(01:19:40):
That according to the Department of Homeland Security on their website,
only legal US citizens or residents can get one of
these identification cards. You can still use your passport instead
of real ID for domestic air travel, but that just
puts the illegal immigrants out of the running in terms
of flying domestically. Now they can and get driver's licenses
(01:20:01):
in a whole bunch of states. I think there's like
nineteen states that allow illegal immigrants to get driver's licenses,
and this has been going on for years. But when
the real ID kicks in, that's not going to cut it.
Domestic air travelers are in the nation illegally presently required
to present a valid and updated photo ID to board
(01:20:22):
a flight, but as of the believe it's the fifth
of May, if I have the date correctly, that's not
going to work anymore. Accord to Department of Homeland Security
memo outlining Trump administration's motivation, because this was delayed for
a while, they're going to enforce the real ID law
to prevent those in the country illegally from flying, with
(01:20:43):
the exception of self deportation on an international flight. According
to the memo, under Biden, illegal aliens use non compliant
IDs from sanctuary cities to board flights, but real IDs
higher security standards make it nearly impossible to forge legitimate documents,
ensuring only verified travelers can fly. This closes the gaping
(01:21:06):
vulnerabilities Biden's policies created preventing criminals and potential terrorists from
exploiting our aviation system as seen during nine to eleven.
When fraudulent IDs enabled attacks DHS and TSA are clear.
The only place in illegal aliens should be flying is home.
Under Secretary Christy Nolmes leadership, illegal aliens will be barred
(01:21:28):
from domestic flights with one exception. Illegal aliens self deporting
on international flights will be allowed to board without real ID,
encouraging their exit from the United States. That is again
a statement directly from the memo. Now some are against this,
including Congressom Massey. I don't know how the idea of
(01:21:48):
election integrity came in, but Congressome Massey I mentioned this.
Big brother. If you think real ideas about election integrity,
you're abing to be sorely disappointed, someone has lied to you,
or you're engaging in wishful thinking. Please don't shoot the messenger.
Real ID is a two thousand and five George Bush
era Patriot Act overreach that went completely unenforced until Trump
got in office. Let me guess he's playing four D
(01:22:11):
chess and I should just go along.
Speaker 4 (01:22:12):
With it.
Speaker 1 (01:22:14):
Those from a couple of Massi's posts. Anyway, onto the
first Trump administration pushed back on the real ID October
twenty twenty deadline because of the pandemic. But then the
Biden administration did kick in the deadline, which happened to
be May seventh. So if you're wondering where the deadline
came in, then you can just point to the Biden administration.
(01:22:34):
Whether you like real ID or not. But I've had
one for years. I never really looked at it as
a big brother kind of thing. I mean, they've got
all the information on me that they check for real
ID anyhow. But you're going to have to get one
if you plan on fly six fifty six. Dave Williams
coming up next, Taxpayer Protection Alliance, followed by Steve Gooden,
who's going to provide a thorough and thoughtful analysis of
(01:22:56):
the Supreme Court decision regarding the Venezuela and prisoners. That'll
take place at seven thirty. I sure hope you can
stick around covering Trump's first one hundred days.
Speaker 4 (01:23:04):
Every day we stand on the verge of the four
greatest years in American history.
Speaker 17 (01:23:09):
Fifty five KRC the talk station. This report is sponsored

Speaker 1 (01:23:34):
Return with Steve Gooden at the bottom of the area
to give us some breakdown on the Supreme Court decision
about the Venezuelan prisoners. But in the meantime, welcome back
from the Taxpayer Protection Alliance Dave Williams. Always good to
have you on the phone, Dave, Welcome.
Speaker 6 (01:23:48):
Good morning, Brian, a belated happy Easter and hope you
had a really nice, quiet Easter.
Speaker 1 (01:23:54):
I did, and at the end of my I had
a week off last week, which a mental health week
off is kind of what I was calling it, because
every once in a while you got to take some
time to exhale, and so I was able to do
that and really was enjoyable. Getting back into the gear
of things has been a little challenging for me the day.
It's like, you need a vacation, a week of vacation,
to come off your week of vacation.
Speaker 3 (01:24:15):
So, wait, did you go to Al Savador last week?
Speaker 4 (01:24:19):
No? I did.
Speaker 1 (01:24:19):
Yeah, I try to spring some gang members in El Salvador. Yeah,
seacat prison. Anyhow, Now I stayed at home and slept
and stared at the back of my eyelids for real
extra like the time Dave I got the biggest kick
because Joe Strecker does what we call the rundown, and
it shows me who's going to be on the program
and also the topics that we will be discussing. Dave
(01:24:40):
Williams at seven oh five, Congress utter disregard for fiscal responsibility.
That's making making me laugh all morning, because you know,
as long as I've been alive and I'll be sixty
in September, Man, it's just been the order of business.
They always disregard fiscal responsibility. But this is you're gonna
have to break this down for my listeners in me
(01:25:02):
because they're in the process of doing this reconciliation thing.
So the Senate's got a version, their House has got
a version. The Senate only is requiring four billion dollars
in spending cuts. Is that four billions is the Congressional
Budget Office does its budget and that's four billion over
ten years.
Speaker 6 (01:25:23):
That's four billion over ten years. And that's not even
a cut, No, it's not. It's it's a flesh wound
as money. Python would say, you know, this is something
that is very problematic because reconciliation is key to getting
back to tax cuts and extending the tax cuts.
Speaker 3 (01:25:40):
So they have to do this. They have to come
up with some sort of agreement.
Speaker 6 (01:25:44):
And you're right, the Senate is talking about four billion
dollars over ten years now. Listen, I was offended when
I saw the House was only cutting one hundred and
fifty billion a year. Wow, I mean compared to the Senate.
This is this isn't credible. But again, you know, so
much more has to be done here.
Speaker 1 (01:26:04):
Okay, So, as you write in it's protecting taxpayers dot Org, folks,
bookmarkt and pay attention with Dave and the team are
doing over the Taxpayer Protection Alliance. But as you point out,
it only requires four billion minimum spending on the Senate side,
in stark contrast to the House's one point five trillion requirement,
which you know, if you just compare the two numbers,
(01:26:24):
this is a substantial difference. But we e blow through
about two trillion dollars more annually than they take in.
Am I right about that?
Speaker 6 (01:26:35):
Therein lies the problem is that they're not even making
a dent in the deficit. And let's not even talk
about the debt because the debt is going to continually
increase over the next five, ten, fifteen, I mean until
you know, as far down the road as we can see.
Speaker 3 (01:26:50):
And this is the time to do with Brian.
Speaker 6 (01:26:52):
We have a Republican House, a Republican Senate, and obviously
a Republican in the White House. This is the time
to cut spending because we have no idea what twenty
twenty six is going to look like for the House
or the Senate. We may never see these conditions again.
And you know, listen, I like Speaker Johnson. I think
he's a decent guy. He's just not bold enough. Remember
(01:27:15):
back to the days of nuke Gingrich and you know,
we had such stronger Speakers of the House and I
just don't see that with Mike Johnson. And again, he's
a nice guy, and I think he's trying to do
the right thing. But we need, you know, more leadership
and then stronger leadership in the House and the Senate.
Four billion dollars over ten years. That's embarrassing, that's absolutely embarrassing.
Speaker 1 (01:27:34):
It is embarrassing. So you know, what I really am
always looking for is what is the explanation. I mean,
the Republican Party always pays lip service to being the
party of fiscal responsibility. It's in their platform. They talk
about it, they complain about defits, if they complain about
outrageous spending, of course, thank god for Doge. At least
we're getting an eye full of all the crazy crap
(01:27:55):
that we labor for every day and have that money
removed from our paychecks and go off to like I
don't know, Sesame Street programs in Iraq or whatever. But
that's just tiny little bits and pieces. I know, mind
the pennies and the dollars will mind themselves. But I mean,
we've got trillions of additional dollars that are spent. With
all that, and all that being said, what's the explanation
(01:28:18):
from at least the Republican side of the Ledger in
the Senate for why they're only willing to consider cutting
four billion over ten years.
Speaker 6 (01:28:26):
So John fun who's the leader of the Senate right now,
said this is the best deal that they can get
that they can that can pass the Senate. I mean,
this is what the Republicans because the Republicans don't have
the I can't say it on the air, but they
don't have the intestinal fortitude exactly exactly, Well, why not.
(01:28:51):
There's so many moderate Republicans that are afraid to cut
spending because they think that it's going to hurt them
in the polls. Now, this is the crazy part, Brian.
I think that if they were bold, people would appreciate that.
Look at the you mentioned DOGE. Look at the support
that DOGE is getting. Look at what it's doing going
through every milk and cranny of the budget and of
these agencies and finding just disgusting examples of waste, fraud, abuse.
(01:29:16):
And listen, this is something that Rand Paul has been
doing for years. Yeah, now we actually hear about it
on a daily basis, and now is the time to
do this. And you know, we're potentially talking about trillions
of dollars that could be cut from the federal government.
Speaker 3 (01:29:30):
And nobody would notice.
Speaker 6 (01:29:32):
Like you said, you know, Sesame Street in Iraq, all
these crazy research programs, No one will notice if these
programs go by by.
Speaker 1 (01:29:41):
I'm just I mean, i feel like I'm getting rid
of boil over with anger because when you see this
on paper, as you have it on your Taxpayer Protection
Lines web page. Yeah, I just want to start, you know,
slapping these people across the face metaphorically speaking. You know,
I'm not a man of violence, but you know, it's like,
what in God's name are you thinking? Just as you
(01:30:04):
point out, this is like the only opportunity you may
ever have to stop us and save us from ourselves,
and you are the ones that are supposed to be
saving us from ourselves, and in fact you're the one
that can't save You can't save yourself. You're addicted to
the spending. Is it pet projects in Republican states that
they're worried about losing? I mean what, I just don't
get any There's no rationale behind letting this opportunity pass
(01:30:27):
up that I can figure out.
Speaker 3 (01:30:30):
No, and the American public is ready for this.
Speaker 6 (01:30:32):
I mean, you looked at the election last year, you
look at what's happening with dose is that people are
ready for this. They're ready for spending cuts. And you know,
the last time we had this, it was called the
tea Party, right, and I think we have a bit
of a resurgence of it. We're not calling it the
tea Party anymore. But I think people are fed up
with Washington.
Speaker 1 (01:30:51):
Now.
Speaker 6 (01:30:51):
You have a lot of these agencies that are letting
people go and the only people that are complaining about
this are the people in the agencies and inside the Beltway.
Speaker 3 (01:31:03):
Everyone else is like, so what, so.
Speaker 6 (01:31:06):
What if these people, you know, they have been doing
nothing for years? You know a lot of these bureaucrats.
Now it has to be done in a way where
you know, you don't fire everyone an agency.
Speaker 3 (01:31:15):
Well, I don't know. That's a little at tempting it is.
Let me get back to you on that.
Speaker 1 (01:31:19):
But spends.
Speaker 6 (01:31:22):
Massive savings because if if you get rid of someone
who's making one hundred thousand dollars a year, that actually
multiplies over years because of their benefits and uh and
down the road. So I think again, they're missing this opportunity.
And I'm just I'm as frustrated as you are, because
now the time to do it.
Speaker 1 (01:31:39):
Well, does the taxpayer Protection Lines reach out to the
individual senators and and and give them a ton lashing
or try to encourage them.
Speaker 6 (01:31:46):
In hundred percent, we are calling out the Republicans and
we're saying, listen, this is the time to do it.
And we you know, we are writing letters, we are
going up and visiting with these offices, and we're getting
a lot lot of pressure and you know, people may
not know this, but so we get a lot of
pressure from Republicans to support the budget, to support these bills,
(01:32:07):
and we refuse to.
Speaker 3 (01:32:08):
You look at the statement we made.
Speaker 6 (01:32:10):
It was a scathing statement, you know, against the Senate
and now you know, looking at the House, what they're
going to do. So you know, we're taking no prisoners
here and listen. We we want to support the Republicans
because they say the right thing, but they don't.
Speaker 9 (01:32:23):
Do the right thing.
Speaker 3 (01:32:23):
That's it, right, Yeah, So no, we've been very.
Speaker 6 (01:32:28):
Active and very vocal on Capitol Hill trying to uh
figure out what to do to have more spending cuts
and really some more fiscal responsibility.
Speaker 1 (01:32:37):
It's frustrated, well, is this a call to action for
my listeners? Disagreement their senators and we haven't even pivoted
over to the Republican side, where it's only one point
four trillion over ten years, that's not going to put
really much of a dent in the in the in
the fiscal reality of what's going on in the spending
and the spending levels in Washington. I mean, both sides
need to be get a tunnel aashing.
Speaker 6 (01:32:58):
People should be calling their member of Congress whether it's
they're member of the House and a member of the Senate.
They need to be calling because that's the only way
this is going to change. And this is something now
we've been talking for a number of years and I
always say, see something, say something, you have to call
your member of Congress.
Speaker 1 (01:33:15):
Well, let's get on that, folks. It's easy to do.
Just get in touch with your elected officials Senate and Republicans.
And I wouldn't mince my words, be quite candid with you.
This is the only, maybe the only opportunity in our
lifetime where we can actually bring some fiscal responsibility and
stop well what it's like a death by a thousand cuts.
(01:33:36):
Eventually we're not going to be able to afford what
we've what what our credit card tab I mean, we're
already a trillion dollars annually in interest.
Speaker 6 (01:33:43):
Dave Well and Brian think about this is if we,
you know, have this problem with China so much, well,
this is even more of a reason to cut spending
and not be beholden to China to prop up our deficits.
Speaker 1 (01:33:57):
And prop it up. Yeah, and that's the other compy worry,
because what if they quit buying our bonds?
Speaker 6 (01:34:05):
That's a whole nother conversation that's not gonna be pretty
at all that Congress and the President will have to have.
And that's why all these things are interconnected, and it
has to start.
Speaker 4 (01:34:14):
Now.
Speaker 1 (01:34:16):
Let's pause every day back about well, tax cuts. They're
going to keep the tax cuts in place, and if so,
how are we going to pay for them? Seven sixteen

Protecting Taxpayers dot org. Get is Day Williams with the
taxpayer protection lines all right. Pivoting over from the spy
less Republicans in the House and Senate who refused to
cut spending adequately enough to save us in the future
of our country. Pivoting over to taxpayers and the taxes
(01:37:11):
we pay. The Donald Trump tax cuts in Job Act
of twenty seventeen's getting set to expire because the spineless
idiots refused to ever enact something permanent. It's an opportunity
to make these cuts permanent and everyone will benefit from this.
Am I wrong, Dave Williams?
Speaker 6 (01:37:29):
So have you noticed, Brian, whenever there's an increase in spending,
that's permanent, right, that never expires. Whenever we cut taxes,
there's always an expiration date.
Speaker 1 (01:37:42):
Tiet.
Speaker 3 (01:37:42):
I mean it should be the exact opposite.
Speaker 6 (01:37:44):
And listen, what happened in twenty seventeen was amazing because
we saw the economy take off. We saw thousand dollars
bonuses going out to people from corporations. And remember Nancy
Pelissi mocked this thousand dollars bonuses and said, what's a
thousand dollars for some buddy?
Speaker 3 (01:38:00):
Well, I mean talk about out of.
Speaker 1 (01:38:02):
Touch, yeah, said the woman with a twenty five thousand
dollars refrigerator freezer during COVID eating twelve fourteen dollars a
pint ice cream. That woman is so out of touch anyhow, whatever, Yeah,
And so.
Speaker 6 (01:38:15):
That's why we need to make these things permanent. These
tax cuts permanent for individuals and businesses. Right now, if
you're an individual in twenty seventeen, you got a tax cut.
It made taxes a little bit simple. Listen, I'm not
gonna lie to you and say taxes are simple. But
it increased the standard deduction, so a lot of people
(01:38:35):
didn't have to put all the itemized deductions in to
get you know, the bigger tax cut for businesses, Oh
my gosh.
Speaker 3 (01:38:42):
We went from a.
Speaker 6 (01:38:43):
Forty percent corporate tax rate to a twenty one percent
corporate tax rate, and you had companies flooding back into
the country.
Speaker 3 (01:38:50):
Remember nineties and two thousands, the inversions.
Speaker 6 (01:38:53):
Where companies would leave this country basically on paper, right,
is that Tim Horton's bought Burger King. There's a lot
of different inversions that happened. Corporations left this country. They
came back in twenty eighteen because of the tax code,
and we saw unemployment go down.
Speaker 3 (01:39:10):
It really was. I mean, twenty eighteen and twenty nineteen
two great years.
Speaker 6 (01:39:14):
Obviously twenty twenty was COVID, but it's the tax cuts
have to be permanent for this economy to get going.
Speaker 1 (01:39:22):
I couldn't agree with you more. And if the tax
if these tax cuts go away, I mean, everybody's going
to get hit. I mean you keep hearing the Democrats
scream about, you know, billionaire tax coaches, taxcoachs for millionaires,
and then it's not I mean, everyone gets the benefit
from this, including regular working stiffs that are out there
on the lower end of the pay scale. They benefit
from this. But what about the the salt deduction? My
(01:39:47):
understanding is because I saw the article written by Faith
Jibluco over at Taxpayer Protection Alliance about the corporate salt,
which she points out would be welcome. Is there a
stand under deduction that they did enjoy or should rather
be subjected to that might benefit.
Speaker 6 (01:40:08):
Us or Yeah, so I think there's you know, we
are not being hypocrites here because you have salt, which
is a state and local tax tax that you get
to deduct a certain amount that was capped at ten
thousand dollars twenty seven.
Speaker 1 (01:40:22):
Because all we were doing was subsidizing high rent or
high taxation states like California, New York, and New Jersey exactly.
Speaker 6 (01:40:30):
So what they're trying to do for the personal salt
is to raise it to one hundred thousand dollars, which
is insane, absolutely insane, would would bust the budget.
Speaker 4 (01:40:39):
Now.
Speaker 6 (01:40:40):
Corporations are looking for what they call sea salt, the
corporate state and local tax deduction. And no, if you're
not going to give it to individuals, you can't give
it to business. It has the same effect. And listen,
we want businesses to grow. We want to give them
an opportunity to grow in this country. But this is
(01:41:00):
not the right way to do it. And there are
so many things in the tax code right now that
are disincentivizing business and we need for business.
Speaker 3 (01:41:08):
To stay here. And listen, businesses employ people.
Speaker 6 (01:41:12):
I remember remember Mitt Romney saying corporations are people, right,
I mean, and he wasn't wrong though, I mean they
employ you know, you look at these big tech companies
that everyone hates, Well, they employ millions of people, They
pay property taxes, they pay you know a fight. Could
they pay all of these taxes that are actually helping
the country.
Speaker 3 (01:41:31):
So we want, but it has to start with individuals.
Speaker 6 (01:41:33):
It has to start with the individual tax cuts and
making sure that like you said, you know, these middle
income folks that they can still enjoy these tax cuts.
Speaker 1 (01:41:43):
Well, cost of everything's going up, and of course every
little bit counts, and I like to keep more money
in my pocket, particularly right.
Speaker 6 (01:41:49):
And Brian and Brian remember the irs. They want to
prepare your taxes now with direct files.
Speaker 3 (01:41:55):
They they want to get.
Speaker 6 (01:41:57):
All of your financial information and say, you know, don't
worry about filling this out.
Speaker 3 (01:42:01):
We'll fill it out for you. We'll tell you how
much you or how much of a refund.
Speaker 9 (01:42:05):
So this is what the iron is.
Speaker 6 (01:42:08):
What they want to do is prepare your taxes, which
you know, I'd rather have the guy down the street
that knows nothing about taxes prepare my taxes than.
Speaker 3 (01:42:16):
The Iron rests. I would trust him a lot more
than bureau.

even keep their own house in order. How many sources

all the other things that dogs figured out. Anyhow, Dave Williams,
appreciate what you do each and every day. I'll encourage
my listeners again to book mark your site Protecting Taxpayers

(01:42:42):
and your representative and scream at them and tell them
to quit or cut back on spending you can get
our house in order or we're all going to collapse
under the weight of our debt. Dave, keep up the
great work. We'll talk again soon, I hope. Thanks.

legal analyst. And I know, yes I am a lawyer,
but some things, like the peace of God, they pass
all human understanding. And that's when we bring Steve in
when it comes to matters of law that are like
the peace of God, like the Supreme Court's decision the
(01:44:42):
other day temporarily UH barring the government from removing Venezuela
and men under the alien Enemy Zach. Welcome back, Steve,
good and appreciate you being on the program today.
Speaker 4 (01:44:53):
Good morning. I can't live up to the peace of God.
Speaker 1 (01:44:55):
Part, but I'll do my best. Hey, you don't have
to adopt my my word. That's just the way I feel,
because I, in fact, was very confused by all of this.
So let's start with the core issue here. We'd start
with the Alien Enemies Act seventeen ninety eight, law that
allows the president to detain her deport citizens of an
enemy nation without a hearing or any other review by
(01:45:17):
a court if Congress declares war or or there is
an invasion or predatory incursion. Now, apparently the law has
only have been invoked three times, one including the detention
of Japanese citizens, which I'm fining to be you know,
offensive and unconstitutional. But that's the law he enacted to
(01:45:38):
deal with this, these these these gang members, or he
asserted this law in an effort to deport them. So,
as I understand the Alien Enemies Act, if you are
if you fall under a declaration of the Alien Enemies Act,
you're not entitled to a hearing. You just you can
just get chucked out of the country.
Speaker 4 (01:45:56):
Is that right, Well, I'll give you the the lawyerly
answer sort of or maybe. And I think that's really
and it's in that gray area that the Supreme Court
fell on Saturday night when they grand an injunction and
actually stopped deportations under the Act. And a lot of
it really goes down to what the definition of a
(01:46:17):
criminal or a terrorist is. So you know this is
a scenario, Like you said, the Alien Enemies Act has
been with us since seventeen ninety eight until I've been
used a handful of times, and it's very clear in
a scenario where there actually is a congressional declaration of war,
we have people on our soil. Those folks can just
(01:46:37):
be summarily removed without a hearing. But if you're under
this kind of second prong of the Alien Enemies Act,
the question becomes, are you really dealing with the terrorist organization?
And I guess the Court's question is in the American
Civil Liberties Union question is you know these people are
being removed. There is no declaration of war. We are
(01:46:59):
not at war with Venezuela. There clearly has been an
almost organized kind of movement for these folks to come
into the country. There's clear evidence I think of, you know,
a peddling gang activity, of organized drug dealing, of fetanyl dealing,
all of these things, but there's really never been an
Act of Congress declaring it. There's never been a Supreme
(01:47:22):
Court decision declaring it. And some of these individuals are
now saying, well, you know, wait a minute, we're really
not part of MS thirteen. We're not a terrorist, we're
not a criminal, you know. And the Trump folks are
really sort of just just shoving them out and putting
them on the planes regardless. And it's a tough thing
because I mean, obviously this is one of the areas
where Trump has the largest, the biggest mandate. I think
(01:47:45):
one of the things that when you look at the polling,
there's a lot of folks that have a lot of
questions about Trump, but even a lot of people on
the left degree that we should not have drug dealers,
gang members and people like that who are from foreign
countries on our soil. They should get kicked out. So
this all circles around their due process rights. Should they
have due process rights and shouldn't they get a little
(01:48:07):
hearing where we have to prove the government has to
prove that they are in fact criminals and terrorists, and
that is the basis of the court's ruling saying, hey,
we got to stop these until we come up with
the process.
Speaker 1 (01:48:17):
Well, the declaration did not say Venezuelans. It said the
gang members MS thirteen or trade Dat or Agua, whatever
the gang members are, they're the ones that were going
after They're the ones that essentially are invading and causing
all this criminal activity. So it's a subset of the
broader ven as well and immigrant population, right.
Speaker 4 (01:48:39):
Right, absolutely, And I think that's why you see Trump
out on TV really pushing you know, you have them
standing there in the Noble Office of some photos, particular
this Garcia guy up at Maryland that has become a
real flashpoint saying no, look he has this gang tattoo
on his hand. And again the cat and I'm playing
Devil's Avgate here, but so is the ACOU and in
these cases argument as well. You know, some of these
(01:49:01):
folks had to get these tattoos just to get by
in Venezuela. You know, they're seeking asylum some of them
at least. These are the arguments that are being made,
and it just it's it becomes like they're trying.
Speaker 1 (01:49:12):
To make it really murky.
Speaker 4 (01:49:14):
Factually, they've got very good lawyers who are sort of
advancing these sort of factual arguments saying, no, these folks
really aren't gang members, or maybe they're former gang members
who don't want to go back to Venezuela and will
be killed because they left the gang. These are the
kinds of factual questions that they're raising, trying to kind
of throw enough sand in the air to stop the deportations,
and it's a tough thing. And it also sort of
(01:49:36):
intersects with this issue about national injunctions, because we had
this judge Boston who was a up in DC who
tried to stop the deportations everywhere, and then the Supreme
Court sort of neutered him and said, no, you can
only rule on them in the DC area. But they
didn't then ask the different district courts to put together
some sort of due process, some sort of hearing process,
(01:49:58):
and then the courts down in Texas to ignored that,
and here we got the injunction.
Speaker 1 (01:50:02):
All right, well we'll bring you back because we need
to break down a little bit more along these lines.
But you're so far, so great. Is typically a case
with Steve Gooden from Port to Right talking about the
current status of our efforts to deport really evil people.
We're talking about gang members, mostly notably from Venezuela and
running into a whole host of legal challenges. Now, there
(01:50:23):
was a Supreme if I recall correctly, Stevens, gonna have
to help me out of my recollection because all these lawsuits,
they're just coming at you like a mile a minute.
The Supreme Court recently held that, going along back to
our conversation about are these folks really gang members rather
than just Venezuelan's generally speaking, who may have an argument
(01:50:45):
that they're allowed to stay here? Maybe not, But then
the Supreme Court rule that there must be a determination
of their gang affiliation before they can be deported under
the Alien Enemy I.
Speaker 4 (01:50:56):
Think a strong one is let us look at this.
Deportations is a foreign policy issue, and that's why they
have invoked the Alien Enemies Act. This is a mass migration,
There is criminality involved, there are particularly terroristic activities involved.
This is a foreign policy issue. That's why you see
Marco Rubio out front on this more than anyone else
(01:51:19):
in the administration, and the typically people look at these
deportations as a domestic issue, an immigration issue. They're saying, no,
this is a foreign policy issue. And the importance of
that legally is that courts are supposed to defer to
the administrative branch or the executive branch on foreign policy issues.
So they thought that would set up a more generous
(01:51:40):
sort of or less robust review by the courts. And contrast,
you have folks like the American Civil Liberties Union and
some of the individual immigration groups who are saying, you know,
these folks factually still have to be proven in some
sort of a hearing, not a true criminal hearing, but
some sort of a hearing that they actually our criminals,
(01:52:00):
gang members, terraced, whatever it is. There needs to be
some factual showing some evidence, something taken under oath, an
affidavit from an IMS agent, something to prove it before
they're put on the plane and shipped out of the country.
And that's where the Court has been wrestling for months,
but has finally kind of come down on the side
of the Venezuelan pro Venezuelan groups and saying we've got
(01:52:22):
to come up with some sort of a hearing here.
Speaker 11 (01:52:24):
Now.
Speaker 4 (01:52:24):
Of course, Congress could have acted they have not at
this point, so it's going to be something that the
judges just sort of crapped out a whole cloth. So
we're in a very you know, yet again with Trump,
we're in a very unusual constitutional space. He is being
very aggressive in the use of his executive powers, and
he's saying, look, I don't have to It doesn't say
(01:52:45):
hearings in the US Code annotated. There's no reference to
a hearing there under the Alien's Edition acted. The very
short thing, I'm going to put them on a plane
and send them south. And finally the Supreme Court has
said not so fast.
Speaker 1 (01:52:59):
The libertarian in me is going to be quick to
point out there is a due process clause in the Constitution.
Has the Alien Enemies Act ever been challenged on the
grounds that it denies due process? And I think, for example,
the internment of Japanese US citizens during World War Two.
I mean, these were not Japanese nationals. They just happened
to be of Japanese descent, and guess they were hearded
(01:53:20):
up and packed away in camps without due process. So
is the Alien Enemies Act in and of itself something
that may be challenged on the grounds that it's unconstitutional.
Speaker 4 (01:53:31):
Well, Bright, I think you are some like you're ready
to argue with the US Supreme Court. That is exactly
the issue. Citizenship is exactly the issue that is being
argued on both sides. You know. The Trump administration's argument
is that the Alien Sedition Act simpler, or that the
due process clause simply does not apply to non citizens,
(01:53:51):
that if you're not a citizen, you don't get a hearing.
You're you know, you're here but the grace of God
and our im authorities, and we can just send you home.
And if you look back at the Japanese and tournament cases,
you're right, those all in the big Supreme Court case
relating to that all turned on the idea that these
folks were citizens and were entitled to some due process
(01:54:15):
and shouldn't have been just sent to those camps. That
they should have been accorded some sort of opportunity to
tell whether or not they were loyal to the United States.
As it turns out, you know, the vast majority of
them indeed were, so you know, that is a stain
on the country, and they shouldn't have just been rounded
up because they had some sort of Japanese lineage. Here
we have folks who are not citizens. In this question
(01:54:37):
is what process do you get as a non citizen?
And that's what the courts are wrestling with, and frankly,
it looks like they're going to make up. They're going
to make something up. It's basically what they seem to
signal over Easter weekend is you know, we're going to
take this up and we're going to come up with
some sort of a test since Congress has not. So
that's that's sort of where it's shaking out. We're in
(01:54:57):
sort of a this on deportations that relate to this criminality,
gang membership, terrorist kind of idea. It looks like they're
on hold. And of course the next question is whether
the Trump administration acknowledges the order, which there are some
indications they may ignore it.
Speaker 1 (01:55:14):
Well, that's going to be I suppose, some sort of
constitutional crisis potentially in and of itself. So the midnight
order from the Supreme Court that just puts things on hold.
I think they're waiting for a lower court to actually
act on the factual record that they're dealing with. They
seem to be they lacked enough information to actually rule
(01:55:35):
on it. I got the impression with this midnight order
that was unusual, right, I mean.
Speaker 4 (01:55:41):
The way these work, and this is one of the
things that people sort of hate about our legal system.
I mean, the Trump administration did not get to put
on their case to the contrary. I mean, this was
an emergency belief. The ACLU lawyers came in I think
it was on a Saturday morning, made their pitch, showed
what they believed to be some evidence of people who
(01:56:02):
were not gang members who were being deported and caught
up in these suites. Whether that's accurate or not, nobody knows.
The Trump administration, because it was an emergency situation, was
not allowed to present evidence to the contrary, so we
don't know. So there is going to be a more
full hearing and review of the evidence. This all relates
to a district in North Texas. It looks like most
(01:56:24):
other judicial districts in the federal system were trying to
cobble together some sort of process by which there'd be
determination of whether these folks were gang members, But the
North District of Texas just really was taking a hands
off approach, and the deportations were set to resume I
think on Monday, so that's why the ACLU took them
to court.
Speaker 1 (01:56:44):
And I understand part of the reason was that they
the adminted Trump administration claims that these guys got a
notice and had a time to assert this habeas corpus
proceeding or otherwise retain counsel to make an argument that
they weren't gang members, but they didn't act on it,
and ergo, the Trump administration had fulfilled its obligations and
(01:57:05):
they were that it was okay then to deport them.
Speaker 4 (01:57:09):
Right, I mean, I think, and I will say, in
fairness to the a c OU I think what happened
was the Trump people gave them a notice and said, hey,
it's time to go have the have the hearings. But
then the local court system just never set the hearings, right,
so they kind of notice and saying, oh, you're going
to get some sort of opportunity here to at least
argue you're not a terrorist or a gang member. And
then in the Northern District of Texas is like, well,
(01:57:31):
we're not doing that. It was a bit rush, you know, exactly,
So then they said then then they literally had the
planes I guess gassed up to leave a Monday morning,
it's like, well, it's too bad. If the court can't
fit you in, you're going, You're good. I guess you
go to El Salvador's or they're sitting everybody so soy.
That's that's really kind of where it fell. And you know,
there's some indication that that some of the other judicial
(01:57:52):
lower lower federal courts are going to step in and
and kind of craft a process that maybe the Supreme
Court will buy off on. So this may turn out
to be a skirmish that it doesn't have as big
a you know, an impact as it might seem. I mean,
everyone may you know, cooler heads may prevail. They may
come up with some sort of kind of expedited hearing
process to look at these individuals. But I think the
(01:58:14):
biggest issue is whether Trump just straight up defies the
orders and whether or not we end up in some
sort of criminal contempt scenario with with folks at the
Homeland Justice or Homeland Security and State Department are who
are who are making these deportations happen?
Speaker 1 (01:58:29):
All right, And finally, since you brought it up moment ago,
we'll just go a little bit over here. The whole
concept of national injunctions and it does seem sort of
crazy that some random judge in a district court and
some remote part of the United States can issue an
injunction that impacts the entirety of the United States of America.
Do we need legislation jurisdictional limitations? And I know the
(01:58:50):
Congress was considering doing that, but can the Supreme Court
deal with that on its own or is it going
to require an Act of Congress to sort of curb
the scope of the authority of these history court judges.
Speaker 4 (01:59:02):
Well, either could happen. It looks like both are happening,
and I think, thank God that the day of the
national injunction is coming to an end. They get Sendedtor
grass Leaf, for Myowa did introduce a bill to get
rid of them. And really what they are just kind
of injunctions is the fancy term for a restreaming order
and the idea that a federal judge in one part
of the country can issue an injunction or streaming order
(01:59:24):
against the federal federal policy that applies to all fifty
states and Guam and territories. I mean, that's sort of
absurd because it does encourage justice shopping, and here we'd
only had eleven, I think or twelve national injunctions prior
in our history. We've had eighty four since Trump took
office in sixteen. So it can tell you how politicized
(01:59:45):
that process can be. But the Court did send a
signal to this judge up in DC who had tried
to issue a national injunction against all of these deportations
based on the Alien Enemies Act. They did say, hey,
look something like this constitutional question like this, you can
only issue a restraining order in your district. You can't
(02:00:06):
do a national one. So the Court did signal that
they you know, they not as a matter of policy yet,
but they did kind of clip this guy's wings and say,
on something like this, you can't do that. So I
think that day is ending. I would I suspect there
will be some bipartisan support for ending this in Congress
because you know, just simply put, it could be you know,
(02:00:26):
it could be abused by either side, right, we know
judge shopping goes on. We know, you know, because of
the way these judges are appointed, you have some idea
what their political leanings may be based on the appointment
the appointed. They were appointed by the president, so you know,
obviously you're if you're the ac OU, you're looking for
a Biden or an Obama or a Colton appointee and
(02:00:47):
hoping that you're going to get a better outcome. So
and that's not good for anything. It's not good for
the rule of law. And hopefully that's coming to an end.
Speaker 1 (02:00:55):
Yeah, you and I both know plane employers are really
good at judge shopping cases exactly.
Speaker 4 (02:01:02):
Steve.
Speaker 1 (02:01:03):
Good God bless you, sir. I can't thank you enough
for coming to the program of breaking this down for
all of us, including me, and you do such a
really good job. And I'll look forward to having you
back on and maybe hopefully with some really good news
next time in the area of law and litigation, if
it was.
Speaker 4 (02:01:19):
There is no good news in litigation, Brian, It's just
it's all. That's the point of litigation is the seple
fighting and squabbling and arguing. It's endless.
Speaker 1 (02:01:27):
That's how you get the bills up, right there, Hours build,
hours build, God bless you, Steve. Keep up the great
work at Porter. Al Right, we'll have you on again
real soon. Take care of yourself, my friend. It is
seven fifty three fifty five kre CE Detalk Station nine percent.
If you look at the worst month under the Biden administration,
I think that was December of twenty twenty three, where
one hundred and roughly one hundred and ninety thousand people
(02:01:49):
were caught and released into the country. And this past
month it was twenty twenty so huge one administration, James.
We didn't new legislation happening to be passed, just we
needed a new administration. So clearly Trump has had a
profound and tremendous impact on that. Now he's busily trying
(02:02:10):
to get rid of the worst of the worst of
the illegal immigrants that came in, most notably like the
MS thirteen gang members and the Trendy or Agua gang members.
But as you note, they seen, at least currently under
the courts system, have more rights than US citizens these days.
Speaker 11 (02:02:26):
Bob, I'll tell you what is alarming that's going on,
as these activist federal judges that think they have power
to set foreign policy for the United States, that think
they have the power to interfere with the president's lawful
authority to deport criminal illegal aliens, and just keep stepping
(02:02:47):
all over this. Even in the United States Supreme Court
this week came back and stopped the deportation of these
Venezuelan migrants. That this is absolute insanity, and we've got
to figure out a way to get these judges is
back into their role, which this is clearly not. But
you know, you mentioned the type of people that we're
(02:03:09):
talking about here, these hyper violent Venezuelan prison gang Trendy
I Ragua gang members, the MS thirteen Salvadoran gang who
have been here for a long time. You know, the
first Trump administration did a great job of knocking those
people back and really stopping what was going on in
(02:03:30):
the Obama administration with MS thirteen all over the country.
And then you know, during the Biden administration, the Trendy
Aragua thing took off in twenty twenty three when the
Venezuelan government started dumping their prisons. So it really has
been an interesting time since January twentieth. It's hard to
(02:03:52):
believe it'll be one hundred days this week, and it
seems like it seems like it's been almost forever at
this point. The drastic overnight change of putting a president
into office that has the will power and the desire
to secure the American border and deport illegal aliens who've
been into the country illegally. That has dropped it, as
(02:04:15):
you mentioned, yeah, from the peak, and.
Speaker 1 (02:04:22):
All the polling reflects this. You know, closing the borders
is what the American people want, and the Democrats I
just and so baffled by their resistance to this, the
idea that you know, Chris van Hollands going down to
visit an MS thirteen gang member in El Salvor to
try to bring him back. He entered the country illegally,
he's already been determined to be a gang member, but
(02:04:42):
then he's taken all these extra steps to try to
bring him back, just as you know he's a family man.
Well you know, if he's such a great family man,
why does his wife try to get a restraining order
concusing him of beating her. I mean, it's it's like
I just am so puzzled on why this seems to
be a hill that they want to die on.
Speaker 11 (02:04:59):
Well, it Trump derangement syndrome once again going on. And so,
because President Trump wants to secure the border, Democrats have
to be against it. President Trump wants to deport criminal
illegal aliens, Democrats have to.
Speaker 4 (02:05:11):
Be against it.
Speaker 11 (02:05:12):
President Trump wants to protect women from men participating in
athletic sports, causing them injury and suffering, and you just
basically destroying Title nine. Democrats have to be against that,
and so that just continues throughout his foreign policy, throughout
his domestic policy, and throughout his border security policy. If
(02:05:33):
he's in favor of it, they're going to be against it.
Even though ten years ago, you know, President Obama was
very adamant about that we had to secure the border.
Even though he didn't do a very good job at it,
he at least acknowledged that the problem was there. Biden,
you know, just opened the doors and intentionally invited millions
(02:05:54):
of people to come into the United States and we
were still suffering that the criminal consequences of all of
this well, and.
Speaker 1 (02:06:01):
You know, Democrats lost a lot of voters as a
consequence of the cities being overrun by illegal immigrants. I mean,
the school systems were overrun, the living and housing issues
were exacerbated, the millions, if not billions of collective dollars
that had to be thrown at dealing with the illegal
immigrant population. I mean, there were some angry, angry Democrats
(02:06:24):
in Chicago and New York and on the West Coast.
I mean, it's as if they can't see the forest
for the trees. They live in their own echo chamber
and don't observe the damage that they have done and
actually damage they did to their own party.
Speaker 11 (02:06:37):
Well, and you know, hats off to my Governor Greg
Abbott here in Texas. You know, he really changed the
national dialogue on this when he started this bussing program
and in twenty twenty one to take migrants from Eco
Pass in Del Rio, Texas who were crossing by the
thousands each day and bussing them up to New York City, Washington,
(02:06:58):
d C, Denver, Los Angeles, Philadelphia. And it made those
mayors wake up and see what was going on and
put the cost that we've been bearing here in Texas
for decades, put that cost onto their back. And now
you see Mayor Eric Adams coming out and actually supporting
(02:07:20):
ICE and making you know, it's it's a sad day
that US mayor has to say that ICE is not
a criminal organization. You know, why is that even necessary
for somebody to say, Well, it's because of the language
of people like Senator Van Holland who go out and
say that ICE is kidnapping people off the streets.
Speaker 1 (02:07:40):
Yeah, and you know, you get to with hindsight, we
could to reflect back on this. And I remember early
on in the Biden administration they were denying that the
that there was even an open border, when the likes
of Bright barton Fox News are the only ones down
there with cameras filming it and showing America the reality
of what was happening literally every day. I mean, it
collectively lied to and always makes me wonder what nefarious
(02:08:02):
motive was behind this? As you point out, they were
emptying their prisons out and facilitating their arrival at the
southern border. This wasn't just it didn't happen by a
magic trick. This was actually organized and done with calculation.
And why do we allow it to happen? I'm just
still puzzled.
Speaker 4 (02:08:22):
By that, Brian.
Speaker 11 (02:08:24):
It was an intentional action by the Biden administration. They
were told by the outgoing Trump administration what would happen
if they changed these policies that Trump had put in
place that were highly successful. They had reduced border crossings
by ninety percent at the low point, and they told them,
you know, if you change these policies, this is what's
going to happen. Well they did, and literally thirty days
(02:08:47):
later we started seeing the massive increases in border numbers,
peaking in December of twenty twenty three, when about two
hundred and fifty thousand people across the border, the southern border,
not counting the northern border, the southern border illegally and
in that month. And one of those who crossed that
month was this guy, Christian Ortega Lopez, who entered through
(02:09:11):
Eagle Pass and ends up eventually living with a district
magistrate judge, you know, in Los cruzs, New Mexico.
Speaker 3 (02:09:21):
What is up with that?
Speaker 1 (02:09:22):
I read that story, Bob, I could not believe that that.
I mean, the guy was He's on all kinds of
YouTube videos, are filming himself with machine guns and high
powered weapons, and he's not even legally allowed to own
a firearm in this country since he's an illegal immigrant.
He is a gang member and ends up living at
(02:09:42):
magistrate Judge Joel Kano and his wife Nancy's house. They
got pictures of them standing there like their family members together.
Speaker 11 (02:09:51):
Oh and there's some other pictures that have come out
here since we've published this arder. We were the first
one nationally to break this story.
Speaker 9 (02:09:57):
The s R.
Speaker 11 (02:09:58):
I saw it written about it, and then you know,
it just took off. It's such a ridiculous story showing
how these democrats just totally disregard the law. You know,
this is blatant. His wife meets this guy in El Paso,
which we knew then was a hub of trendy Aragua
(02:10:20):
gang activity, human trafficking, arms trafficking, all these kinds of things,
and somehow thinks that this would be a great guy
to invite to their house to do construction work and
handyman work and hang out with their daughter. And you know,
there's photos out now of them literally sitting around dinner
tables together as one big, happy family. And he's he's
(02:10:42):
an ex cop, he knows what the law is. He's
a judge, and he's giving this guy access to AR fifteen's,
to handguns, taking them out to the range, going shooting,
drinking margarita's with them, flashing gang signs, you know, and
he's got the tattoos all over his body. There's no
question that that he's he's a trendy Aragua gang member.
(02:11:06):
And yet this judge just thinks that's okay. Well, I've
got news for him. I hope the US Attorney in
the District of New Mexico will bring charges against him
at least for harboring an illegal alien and and maybe
even they need to look at, uh charging him with
with providing material.
Speaker 4 (02:11:23):
Support to a foreign terrorist organization, which is you.
Speaker 11 (02:11:25):
Know, the Trump administration designated them Trendy Aragua as a
foreign terrorist group.
Speaker 1 (02:11:30):
Yeah, and I had that that question was burning in
the back of my mind. So I'm glad you brought
it up because certainly was going to ask you about this.
Just because he resigned from the bench, that does not
mean his and his wife's troubles are over yet.
Speaker 11 (02:11:42):
Oh, absolutely not. And you know, I think more is
going to come out of this. I don't know if
if any of this arms trafficking was going on with
this guy, but you know, he's certainly surrounding himself with
guns and uh, you know, just what are they up to?
Speaker 4 (02:11:59):
What is it? Guy? Possibly?
Speaker 11 (02:12:01):
I still can't wrap my head around it, you know
it it's this liberal mentality that we have to take
care of these poor, you know, disgruntled illegal aliens who
come here with this tragic story from other countries all
around the world, you know, and invites him into his home,
(02:12:21):
has him, has him hanging out with his daughter, you know,
and I can't I can't get it.
Speaker 1 (02:12:29):
I can't get it as as the parent of a daughter. No,
that's not going to happen.
Speaker 4 (02:12:34):
I mean, yeah, me too.
Speaker 1 (02:12:36):
Well, you know there's there's some maybe out there screaming
at the lady of going well, you know, at least
he opened his house to one of these displaced, poor
illegal immigrants, you know, because there has been that argument
made many times. You know, well, you're the governor or,
you're the mayor of the city of Chicago. You've got
lots of room in your giant and mayrill mansion once
you let some of them live in your place. I
(02:12:56):
mean there's been those arguments made a lot, and so
maybe he's of that mindset. Well, at least I'm providing
a space for them, and so you can't criticize me
for doing what we're asking everyone else to do, which
was shoulder the burden. But you know, the fact that
he's a gang member and they're providing you with firearms
just and adds an extra element of just frankly creepiness
to the whole story.
Speaker 11 (02:13:17):
Yeah, that's the over the top part. I Okay, if
you want to say, okay, we're we're housing these people
because they need someplace to go, Okay, maybe, yeah, But
giving them semi automatic rifles and pistols and taking them
out to the range shooting, and you know, that is
just it's mind blowing, It really is. And you know,
(02:13:39):
it was fun writing this story. I pulled up the
court documents, the federal court documents on and got a
lot more information than the Albuquerque Journal had access to.
But it really was shocking how deep this was and
he integrated, he was into their lives there, and you know,
like I said before, there's no doubt that he knew
(02:14:01):
what was going on, that this guy's a trend Ragua
Foreign Terrorist Organization gang member and he's putting up with it.
He not putting up with it, he set it up
and living the dream.
Speaker 1 (02:14:17):
Well, Bob Price, I noticing your reporting on this.
Speaker 4 (02:14:19):
One.
Speaker 1 (02:14:19):
Other really creepy element of this is images from his
cell phone, this Ortego Lopez, a cell phone that you
obtained Breitbart showed graphic images of multiple decapitated and mutilated bodies.
What the hell's was that?
Speaker 11 (02:14:34):
Yeah, that that just shows the mentality of this individual
or Taga Lopez who who there was at least two,
there may have been more than that. It was hard
to distinguish, but decapitated, mutilated, bloody bodies on his cell
phone images. And I don't know if he had anything
to do with those things, or if there was something
(02:14:56):
that somebody else had sent to him and they were
sharing in the fund, you know what the situation is.
But but this shows the mentality of these trendy Aragua
gang members that think this is something to celebrate, these decays.
You know, we see it all the time in Mexico
with cartels, the Zetas and and you know beltren Lava
(02:15:18):
and the Santa Looa cartel, Cartel Jalisco New Generation. Those
people are hyper violent. They put the Middle Eastern terrorists
to shame. They can look like amateurs and choir boys
in comparison. And this is all going on just south
of the US border. And and that's why President Trump
(02:15:39):
declared these groups, these cartel groups to be foreign terrorist organizations,
that they truly, truly are terrorists, and that was illustrated
in these images. You know, sometimes we put graphic images
on brightbart just so that people can actually see what
it is that we're dealing with, and I chose not
to in this particular case because the events were just
so graphic. But it's shocking, and it's it's just another
(02:16:06):
illustration of the mentality of these animals that Democrats are
defending and supporting.
Speaker 1 (02:16:13):
Well, they do it at their own peril from what
I can conclude. So keep it up, That's all I
can say, because we could use a lot fewer of
them in elected capacity. Toyo Texas Border associatedor Bob Price,
a pleasure to have you back on the morning. She'll
keep writing the great stuff, and I'll encourage my listeners
to the bookmark Breitbart dot com so they can read
it for themselves and also get a lot of other
outstanding news that, of course the mainstream media is not
(02:16:34):
willing to cover. Bob, You have a fantastic day and
glad to have you in the city.
Speaker 11 (02:16:38):
Thanks good to be back there, and look forward to
doing it again soon.
Speaker 1 (02:16:41):
Take care of my friends. A twenty two if if
you have care site talk station, you know what I
got a CT scan at Affordable Imaging Services because you know,
I do what I recommend you to do, and I
saved a whole lot of money. CT scan is great.
It's like the third one I've gotten there. My doctor
got it, no problem. The radiologists report fine, it read perfectly,
there was no issues there. So I got my diagnosis,
(02:17:01):
and that's what it's all about. And I also saved
a heap load of money because the CT scan there
doesn't cost you five thousand dollars, which you'll have to
pay at a hospital. It only costs four hundred and
fifty without the contrast. I needed a contrast, so six hundred.
That price came with the board certified radiologists report same
thing with MRIs echo cardiograms and they'll get you right in.

Retired Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis. I'm back to the fifty
five Cassey Morning Show. I missed our conversation last week
when I was on vacation. Brother.
Speaker 5 (02:19:04):
I know, man, I always go through a little bit
of with draw symptoms when you take your vacation. So
I'm glad you're back in the office.
Speaker 1 (02:19:09):
I'm glad to have you on the program. I really
enjoy year analysis of well sadly war and you know,
I'm sorry I have to. I'll phrase this as I
got a kick out of it. I just like it's
one of those what would Jesus do kind of things.
So Easter shows up and they have a thirty or
thirty hour ceasefire, I guess because it's Easter, and then
(02:19:30):
start killing each other the minute it's over.
Speaker 4 (02:19:32):
With, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (02:19:33):
I mean, didn't they do that In World War One?
They had like a Christmas armistice and the guys came
out of the trenches from both sides. They sat down,
they talked, conversed, they had cigarettes together, and then they
went back to the trenches and started killing each other again.
It seems kind of barbaric and preposterous, doesn't it.
Speaker 5 (02:19:50):
Well, yeah, that's that is a good analogy because that
there were some similarities there, although frankly unlock the one
in World War One, that this one was routinely lad
left and right really throughout the whole lot of contact.
So it was less of killing during the Easter holidays
than it would otherwise have been.
Speaker 1 (02:20:08):
But it wasn't a full seasfire, didn't lead to anything.
Speaker 5 (02:20:11):
I guess that, you know, at least according to what
Putin himself said, because he's the one who designated this,
that it was just you know, for at least one holiday.
He wanted his troops to get, you know, on both
sides of the lines, to get some kind of respite,
I guess. But yeah, like you said, it was pretty
short lived, so I'm not really sure what was accomplished
by it.
Speaker 1 (02:20:31):
So where are we in this whole process. I get
the feeling that, you know, Trump's just kind of washing
his hands of the whole thing. Russia doesn't want to
sit down negotiate. Ukraine wants more than they can ever
hope to get in their negotiations. And is Trump just
going to turn the whole thing over to our the
NATO allies in the Western European countries to handle.
Speaker 5 (02:20:51):
Yeah, this is actually a potentially very very crucial week,
and one of the more crucial we've had in quite
a long time, even since Trump has come into office.
Speaker 4 (02:21:02):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (02:21:02):
There are some really important meetings between the United States, Ukraine,
and Europe UH in London tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (02:21:09):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (02:21:09):
And then there's gonna be some US and Russia meetings
following that. And Trump put out on his true social
last not that he thinks within the next three days
that he thinks he can have some kind of.
Speaker 1 (02:21:20):
A deal wrapped up.
Speaker 5 (02:21:23):
I'm thinking it's more like the first version you said
that the end result of all these conversations is going
to be I'm washing my hands and moving on, because
the sides are still so far far apart, even the
US and the Western side are far apart. But then
from where anybody in the West wants to go and
where Russia wants to go are certainly not something you
(02:21:43):
can bridge in three days. For example, one of the
things that the Ukraine side wants is to say, all right,
we'll we'll conceive this twenty percent of the territory where
the line of contact is, but only I think they
call it de facto, not.
Speaker 1 (02:21:56):
Djure, which they define as meeting.
Speaker 5 (02:21:58):
Will say yes, thank you by this, but we will
not publicly acknowledge that it's your territory, et cetera. Russia said,
it is our territory. It's already in our constitution, it's
not even up for debate, so they would not agree
to that. Then, of course you get into the bigger
issues of you know, where will those lines be, because
the Ukraine side wants them to be on the line
(02:22:19):
of contact and the Russian side says, the minimum we'll
even talk about is the administrative borders, and there's substantial
portions of the southern three of those provinces that have
would have to be withdrawn and evacuated by the Ukraine side.
Speaker 1 (02:22:32):
I can't see him agreeing to any of that.
Speaker 5 (02:22:34):
So if Trump is true that he wants to have
this wrapped up in three days, then it's almost the.
Speaker 1 (02:22:39):
Only way he can do that is to wash his
hands and walk away.
Speaker 2 (02:22:41):
So it seems I.
Speaker 1 (02:22:44):
Don't want to call it conical, but you go, do
you talk to facto and d desuro of course, by
law ergo the formal movement of the border to recognize
this is now part of Russia as opposed to de facto,
which is really what it was before, with the vast
majority of the population in these regions already feeling more
(02:23:05):
loyal to Russia than they did to Ukraine, so that
that situation existed before Russia invaded to sort of liberate,
if I may use that word, these territories, right, Well.
Speaker 5 (02:23:16):
Yeah, and then that's that really kind of gets to
the heart of why I think that really the only
play that Trump can can have here is to say,
all right, we gave you guys every opportunity we could,
but we're walking. Because even with all the combat realities
you and I talk about every week we get together,
that are irrevocably on the Russian side, even to this day,
(02:23:36):
the Western side still cannot come to recognize that. And
they think that they can actually tell the Russian side
where the line's going to be, what the conditions are
going to be, et cetera. When all those cards are
on the Russian side and so I think that you're
going to get to the point to where Trump is
like faced with the reality the du jour if you
or the yeah, the juror if you want to get
to that one, that they're irreconcilable.
Speaker 1 (02:23:59):
And so the only option is y'all figure it out.
And that means y'all fight it out.
Speaker 5 (02:24:03):
And I think that's just the harsh truth of it,
because they will not come to a recognition of combat reality.
Speaker 1 (02:24:10):
Well, and we've had this conversation before. If it comes
to that and we basically effectively pull the plug and say, hey,
we're done. You know, you guys deal with it on
your own. Our NATO allies don't have the capacity to
do that. I mean they I don't think the population
itself is willing to go put itself on the line
(02:24:31):
to fight for Ukrainian independence from Russia to try to
liberate these Russian dominated regions in Ukraine. I mean, do
they have the will? That's one question. But then the
second component is that we've talked about before, do they
have the military hardware to do it? And I get
the impression that they do not. I mean, they're starting
to rebuild their armies as we speak, but they're way
(02:24:53):
behind the curve on that. Yeah, I mean, let's start
with the second part of that.
Speaker 5 (02:24:57):
First, the capacity, without question, there is not because Russia
has spent really the first say two and a half years,
two plus years, retooling their industry, building up their armed forces,
building up their capacity to do all these things that
they need to do, reorienting their economy so that they
can sustain this. And now that they are on a
(02:25:19):
steady state to where they can maintain this force, they
have now about one point five million active army alone
two point something total active forces when they add in
the air force, in the navy, and the industry can
sustain this level of fighting for indefinitely, which grossly exceeds
anything the cumulative West in its entirety to include the
(02:25:42):
United States can even come close to match.
Speaker 1 (02:25:44):
And they can't.
Speaker 5 (02:25:45):
And to your second point about the political will, it
simply doesn't exist.
Speaker 1 (02:25:49):
Everybody.
Speaker 5 (02:25:50):
There are many people, let me put it that way,
in the West ideally would like Russia to lose.
Speaker 1 (02:25:55):
It would like Ukraine to win.
Speaker 5 (02:25:56):
But if it costs them something, if they have to
shed their blood, if they have, and they're boys, it's
zero percent.
Speaker 1 (02:26:02):
Yeah, and it makes me think of something like Vietnam
a lot of resistance, so that why are we in
this remote region in Asia and why are we fighting
for their population? It has nothing to do with us.
We're not connected with them. It just it befuddled a
lot of people. And I know there were a lot
of people the big supporters of it, because that was
back when we were fighting the Communist you know, the
Red scourge. But it's amazing we ultimately become a trading
(02:26:26):
partner with Vietnam after all those years. Anyhow, the absurdity
of war. Are we learning anything?
Speaker 4 (02:26:34):
I know.
Speaker 1 (02:26:36):
My observation on this, considering the overwhelming amount of military
might that Russia has, the overwhelming numbers relative to the
soldiers that are on the ground, it has taken them
a long time. I think Russia thought they just roll
in and to be over in no time. Have we
learned something from this about Russia's ability to wage war
(02:26:57):
given the size of Ukraine relative to the size of
the Russian army. Is this providing us with valuable information?
Speaker 5 (02:27:05):
Let me tell you something that's not entirely good or
kind or optimistic, but after World War Two we learned
a great deal and our policy makers across the board
in Western up recognized the reality of balance of power
forces and what was and what wasn't possible, and our
policies matched reality, and we got the best deal we
(02:27:25):
could given the circumstances, and we kept that steady state
peace for you know, during the entirety of the Cold War,
and we didn't take actions that were unnecessarily provocative. We
were a show to a definite strength so that it
would deter the other side from doing anything, and that
kept the peace for a long time. We have forgotten
those lessons, and now then, despite what we have observed
(02:27:46):
with well over a million people being killed and proving
again the reality of the balance of power dynamics, we
still have refused as a cohort in the West. We've
refused to acknowledge that, and we're still pretending it's otherwise,
and that very often leads to bad policy decisions that
can't be accomplished and don't lead to peace. I hope
(02:28:09):
it doesn't come to that, and that's one of the
reasons I'm hopeful that Trump's a willingness to do that
may force feed these guys to do something that gets
the war off the table. And if it doesn't if
they act even more foolish, if without the United States,
they could plunge themselves into a war that could go
nuclear all too easily.
Speaker 1 (02:28:26):
Oh jeez, Well, we don't get to end on a
happy note today, Daniel Davis. But got to speak it
out loud to point out what reality is I like
and as we stare at this conflict, Daniel Davis, deep dive.
Always a real pleasure having you in the fifty five

Speaking of patriots like Daniel Davis, there's a Patriot program
Shop Regroup or Colorwilliams Seven Hills, and I haven't brought
this up though, but they have the Patriot Home Program
Terans VA Police fire and ems developed by veterans to
help patriots buy and sell their homes. You get a
ten percent of the SBRE group's commission given back as
(02:29:11):
a rebate at closing. There is that a wonderful thing
to acknowledge and respect in the patriots in our community.
Just one of the many things that Shabri Group of
Keller Williams seven Hills does that nobody else is doing.
And they got that cash to keys program. You get
to leverage Sabri Groups cash to make a cash offer
as a buyer, with the Saberi Group giving a better
chance to win the sale, often at a lower price
(02:29:34):
and with better terms. Just a couple of little of
the programs that they offer guarantee you and their commitment
that you'll get a five star experience, true value in
your real estate team. When you contact the Shabri Group
of Keller Williams seven Hills, do it one of two ways.

Happy Tuesday, Jack Atherton and judg Entnapolitan on the fifty
five KRC Morning Show tomorrow. He's enjoy hearing from both
of them. Every Wednesday we get to hear from both
Jacket seven oh five and Judge and Polatano at eight thirty.
Always like it when Congressman Thomas mass he's ahead of
a Politano. But whatever, we'll get him down the road
(02:31:28):
a little bit. Let us see here started out this
morning telling everybody that if you have a student loan
and you've at you thought you had it forgiven, or
you think you're never gonna have to pay it back, sorry,
Lenna McMahon's cracking down and the Trump administration of course,
Education Secretary of McMahon wrote a really interesting open letter
(02:31:49):
to the world pointing this out, starting with Biden never
had the authority to forgive student loans across the board
in the first place. Supreme Court pointed that out in
twenty twenty three, but nonetheless he continued his efforts to
suspend your obligation to pay back the sixty billion dollars
every year increase of student loans. So those days are over,
(02:32:11):
and she made some excellent points in her her letter.
Not because we want to be unkind to student borrowers.
Borrowing money and failing to pay back isn't a victimless event.
Efense debt does not go away. It gets transferred to others.
So if you don't pay your debt to the government,
that means the rest of us have to pay taxpayers,
(02:32:32):
people who had nothing to do with your choice on
getting a student loan or not when you written got
when you got the student loan, you well, we're obligated
to pay it back. That's what the paperwork says. It
always just kind of really frankly pissed me off. The
Divine Administration thought, oh well, it's like buying votes and
literally buying votes. Wolf, what you vote for me will
(02:32:52):
forgive your student loan. Wait a second, the debt was
incurred that that just it seems to me that a
way of alienating every single human being who did not
go into Debtford college or doesn't have a student loan,
didn't go to college, the laborers out in the world,
the folks that maybe chose that it was not the
(02:33:12):
path for them. College is not the right path for everybody. Also,
an excellent point you make, student loans must always be
paid back because not like other types of loans, if
you get a mortgage for a house or you get
a loan for a car, you don't pay for it forclosure.
There's equity in the home. The bank can foreclose on
(02:33:34):
your home and sell it and get the money that
you borrowed back. Your car can be repossessed. You didn't
offer any collateral when you got your student loan for
a college education, and it's impossible to repossess a college degree.
As she wrote, it's an excellent point, which is why
they're very rarely discharged in bankruptcy because someone has got
(02:33:58):
to pay it back. And it's unfair to the American
taxpayer that we should shoulder the burden for something that
you did. And more fundamentally, as she points out, she
throws a lot of blame at colleges, and I do
as well, pointing out that many of the degree granting
programs that qualify for student loans are worthless in the
(02:34:20):
job market. Colleges nonetheless continue to accept students into these programs,
encourage them to borrow money and sometimes hundreds of thousands
of dollars to pay for them, when there's no job
waiting for you on the other side, with your fill
in the blank degree, humanity's degree, or art degree, or
whatever it happens to be. This is what I was
(02:34:40):
on a rail on this morning at the five o'clock hour.
It seems to me that colleges owe an obligation, says
students that are approaching them and asking to be admitted
into the institution, whether or not the degree has any value.
It's an ethical thing. And I know the colleges want
(02:35:02):
to make money and they'll take tuition from anybody that
wants to line up for any stupid degree they offer.
But that they offer stupid degrees when there's no opportunity
for employment afterward, that's depriving people of valuable information, information
that some eighteen year old might not have or be
thinking about. They're not that worldly eighteen year olds. I
(02:35:22):
remember when I was eighteen, I got a political science
degree from the University of Cincinnati. What kind of blank
and value did that have in the real world. Well,
I got I moved into political science. When I realized
I wanted to go to law school, I just assumed
that that was going to happen. Ultimately it did. There
were employment opportunities for lawyers out in the world, and
that's what I ended up doing. I don't know how
(02:35:45):
it would have worked after me with a political science degree.
I have no idea what I would have done. I
look back on it and I scratched my head. What
was the value of that? You know why I got one?
I'd like politics. Well that's why people get art degrees.
They like art. But you can teach that in your
own time. I could have learned about Canadian parliamentary politics
on my own time, read a book on it. That's
pretty much all I did in college. Maybe I could
(02:36:10):
have gone to the CIA. I don't know. I just
know that on reflection, that's not a degree that I
would look at right now and consider that it has
any value. Maybe if a counselor sat down to me
and talk to me about that ahead of time, or
showed me what my employment possibilities might have been, I
might have pursued a different degree, maybe a business degree
or an accountant degree, or maybe I would have gone
(02:36:30):
into chemistry. I thought about being an engineer at one point.
But in the final analysis, colleges are doing many students
a disservice, and as a consequence, many people leave college
with a valueless piece of paper and end up in
This is no diss to baristas. Somebody got to get
their coffee made by somebody, But there's a lot of
(02:36:52):
baristas out there with one hundred thousand dollars in student debt,
but you're gonna have to pay it off. That's the
latest announcement. So they're going to accommodate you. They're going
to provide all the help they can get. So, if
you're a student bar with a federal loan bounds haven't
been making payments, you must restart the payments now, they said.
(02:37:14):
The Federal Student Aid Office is providing every form of
assistance they can legally they legally can to ensure that
a monthly payment can fit into your budget. She writes.
We recently extended the FSA call center operations with weekend
hours to ensure that your individual questions can be answered.
We're also updating the loan simulator to help calculate your
easiest repayment plan. We also provide an advanced AI assistant
(02:37:38):
to help point pinpoint your best financial strategy. So it's
not they're just leaving you to their own devices. They're
trying to help you accommodate the goal of repaying the
debt that you incurred, so we, the American taxpayer, don't
have to pay it off. I support the effort in
that regard. Anyhow, Tuning again tomorrow, Jack Adan and Jenna
(02:38:00):
Paul time. If you need to hear Dave Wannings from
the Taxpayer Protection Alliance. You owe an obligation to everybody
in the United States to contact your representative and your
senator to ask them what in the hell they're doing
with this Reconciliation Act. The Senates proposal only cuts four
billion dollars over ten years. The Republicans only cuts one
(02:38:21):
point five trillion over ten years. We blow through two
trillion extra dollars. Then they take in in taxes every year.
The math doesn't add up. It's a recipe for further disasters.
So get in touch with them and tell them to
man up, or get some wuevos, or do whatever you
politically correct statement that fits your needs, but tell them.
