00:00:05.639 --> 00:00:08.759
Brian Rust's name, you know the brand.
2
00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:18.280
Limbing up the airways in this wing, belting snow face
3
00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:23.039
with a fiery head talking truth. You can't always stand
4
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:33.479
fast to show from coast to coast. Got the facts,
5
00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:36.439
but it ain't no boast. Can't give up the change
6
00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:39.079
and give it toast to the man who.
7
00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:42.320
Roasts the moods. Knock it off. It's rust on me.
8
00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:46.759
But in my life, care of scenes, did you mind no,
9
00:00:47.079 --> 00:00:58.600
don't free free? In the top show Silver Street, the
10
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:03.880
such lords that's off the plane. Nothing never stays the same,
11
00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:09.840
breaking down walls of shame. Ryan Rost is here, claim
12
00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:14.640
voices rise a thing, and so through the censor to
13
00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:20.120
the court all Ussians. Cheaper score for Ryan's battling in
14
00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:23.840
this war knocking off its rushold.
15
00:01:23.239 --> 00:01:27.879
Me, Bunny ryl care sage, did you mind.
16
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:32.519
No, don't free Fray? In the saucial Silver Street?
17
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:44.319
Well, hello, good morning, and welcome to the show, Happy
18
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:46.719
Red and Friday. It is a Red Friday today where
19
00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:50.439
we remember everyone deployed, sponsored by our friends in American
20
00:01:50.519 --> 00:01:53.719
Charlie Grill and Tavern. Of course, the best thing about
21
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:57.359
today is that we're finally back in the knock It
22
00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:03.159
Off studio back from our vacations slash Mayo Clinic trip,
23
00:02:04.120 --> 00:02:07.400
even though we've been doing the radio show all week,
24
00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:10.919
which I got to tell you was as much as
25
00:02:10.919 --> 00:02:13.000
I love doing the show, and I do love doing
26
00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:15.240
the show, it was taxing as hell to do the
27
00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:19.039
show this week because we were obviously not in our
28
00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:22.319
regular studio. We were in the remote stuff and didn't
29
00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:24.360
have all the things that we normally had, and it
30
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:27.840
was just awkward. And sometimes I was doing the show
31
00:02:27.879 --> 00:02:31.680
from the couch. Sometimes I had pants on, sometimes I didn't.
32
00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:35.159
It was just it was awkward. Not to mention, we
33
00:02:35.199 --> 00:02:38.319
also did not have our rumble and wimkin audience that
34
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:41.479
we bounce off of throughout the show. So it's good
35
00:02:41.479 --> 00:02:44.000
to see all you guys already chiming in this morning
36
00:02:44.680 --> 00:02:46.439
on the show. But it is good to be back,
37
00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:49.719
it really truly is. The boys, by the way, were
38
00:02:49.759 --> 00:02:55.280
also stupid excited that Daddy was home. As a matter
39
00:02:55.280 --> 00:02:59.280
of fact, I think between last night, when I arrived
40
00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:03.159
back at home until this morning, when I finally woke
41
00:03:03.240 --> 00:03:05.159
up and had to kick Charlie out of the studio,
42
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:08.599
I've gotten more kisses and hugs from him than a
43
00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:11.520
horny teenager on a Friday night date. I mean, it's
44
00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:15.479
just been unbelievable. He kind of missed me. So it
45
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:18.000
was kind of nice to see the rug Rats this
46
00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:21.439
morning and last night, got all my cuddles and everything.
47
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:23.280
They were in the studio right up until about the
48
00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:25.599
beginning and then they're like, oh God, this is the
49
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:27.400
time the dad gets all riled up. It's time for
50
00:03:27.479 --> 00:03:30.319
us to go and left the studio. But we do
51
00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:32.479
have a lot to talk about today. Of course, with
52
00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:34.840
it being Friday, we'll have the guys on from America
53
00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:37.240
in View. They'll be joining us later on in hour
54
00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:38.919
number three to talk about some of the things that
55
00:03:38.919 --> 00:03:42.120
are going on around the state and around the country.
56
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:45.280
And you know, there was actually something that we were
57
00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:48.159
talking about on the show the other day and now
58
00:03:48.199 --> 00:03:49.759
I can't remember what the hell it was, And I
59
00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:51.759
was thinking to myself, oh, we got to talk about
60
00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:54.639
this with the Doster boys coming up on Friday. I
61
00:03:54.680 --> 00:03:56.400
don't know what the hell it was, So we'll figure
62
00:03:56.439 --> 00:03:58.639
it out. Maybe they'll bring it up, but I'll be like,
63
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:01.919
that's what it was. Also joining us on the show
64
00:04:02.120 --> 00:04:05.960
later on this morning, Linda Cope from The Warrior Beach retreat.
65
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:08.879
Their fall retreat is coming up, and we're gonna talk
66
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:11.719
about that coming up in a little bit as well.
67
00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:16.040
But in the meantime, the Left is it is not
68
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:19.680
even meltdown mode that they are in right now. And
69
00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:23.839
Charlie was worried he was adopted by Haitians. He was like, hey,
70
00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:27.199
who is this that's coming in and feeding me? He
71
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:28.839
was a little off by that for a little bit.
72
00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:34.000
But the Democrats, they are not in a meltdown mode.
73
00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:39.720
They are in another level of emotional mode that we
74
00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:42.319
haven't seen from them in a while. And it's all
75
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:46.519
because of Donald Trump, of course. And I gotta say this,
76
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:50.480
Donald Trump has taken his internet trolling to a whole
77
00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:56.160
new level. And it's just funny to watch the response
78
00:04:56.920 --> 00:04:59.680
from the left when you start looking at how they
79
00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:04.319
are responding to the memes. It's not fair Donald jump
80
00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:07.800
as being a big meanie pants. And I love it
81
00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:13.920
because when Hikeem Jeffries came out the other day and
82
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:17.480
he was upset about the sombrero thing. There by the way,
83
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:20.360
they're also calling it racist, which I saw video pointing
84
00:05:20.399 --> 00:05:23.040
this out, and it was actually kind of funny where
85
00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:28.439
they're talking about Okay, so you're you're upset because Donald
86
00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:35.639
Trump put a sombrero on Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer.
87
00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:41.759
You do realize that a sombrero is not racist. If
88
00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:46.519
you are looking at the sombrero being put onto somebody
89
00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:53.199
as being racist, then you're the one who's racist, because
90
00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:58.199
you're the one who thinks that's racist. And it's kind
91
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:00.120
of a valid point because a lot of this stuff
92
00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:02.319
that we always hear from the left with them, that's
93
00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:05.959
some rained since no, it's not racist, it's you being emotional,
94
00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:09.720
whiny brat, and that's exactly what the Democrats are right now.
95
00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:12.959
And Donald Trump has not slowed down. And again, I
96
00:06:12.959 --> 00:06:15.079
don't know who it is that's on his digital team
97
00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:17.519
that is coming up with all of these things, because
98
00:06:17.560 --> 00:06:20.279
I know it's not one hundred percent Donald Trump. I'm
99
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:23.240
sure that there was some smart ass kid that is
100
00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:26.920
on this team that that probably went to mimester President,
101
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:28.879
you want to say something like it us And he
102
00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:32.560
looked at that and said, roll with it, absolutely, roll
103
00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:36.240
with it. And there was another video and I don't
104
00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:39.199
know if you saw this one where Keem Jeffries was
105
00:06:39.240 --> 00:06:41.920
on I think it was CNN or MSNBC or one
106
00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:43.720
of those. I don't really care which one it was,
107
00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:47.079
but he was on there complaining and whining about Donald
108
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:50.279
Trump doing this and it's not fair, it's so bad
109
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:53.279
what he's doing. And then all of a sudden, somebody
110
00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:57.839
the team again took the video and put Donald Trump
111
00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:02.199
in a mariachi band with sombreros and everything. Right behind
112
00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:07.040
came Jeffries doing his thing. It's just hilarious. And then
113
00:07:07.079 --> 00:07:10.680
you get the moment. The moment that came Jeffries decided
114
00:07:10.759 --> 00:07:14.000
he wanted to be a tough guy when he said,
115
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:16.319
the next time I'm in the Oval Office, or when
116
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:19.439
I'm in the Oval Office again, I'm gonna address him
117
00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:24.879
and he could say it to my face. Dude, think
118
00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:28.160
about this for a second. Think about this for one second.
119
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:30.800
And I mentioned this the other day when talking about this,
120
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:34.800
that Donald Trump is the man who sat in front
121
00:07:34.839 --> 00:07:38.519
of the United Nations, the world's leaders, sat there in
122
00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:43.439
front of them and ripped them apart. These are people
123
00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:46.879
who have militaries, these are people who have economies, These
124
00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:51.519
are people who could retaliate, and he slammed them to
125
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:55.600
their face. Do you even remotely think that Donald Trump
126
00:07:55.639 --> 00:07:58.319
won't do it to your face. First off, he's a
127
00:07:58.360 --> 00:08:00.879
New Yorker, and in old school New Yorker at that
128
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:05.879
he will have no problem with tearing you apart to
129
00:08:05.959 --> 00:08:10.560
your face. But it's just not fair. It's not fair
130
00:08:10.600 --> 00:08:14.240
that Donald Trump is making fun of me, you poor
131
00:08:14.279 --> 00:08:17.000
little whiny brat. And Pat, you're right, it was okay
132
00:08:17.040 --> 00:08:19.199
for Kathy Griffin to hold up a severed body head
133
00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:23.480
of Trump, but when you do these memes, it's the
134
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:27.920
worst thing in the world. It's so immature. Yeah, the
135
00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:30.519
one where he threw the mustaches, that was pretty funny too.
136
00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:34.799
Every time you turn around there's another one. And again
137
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:36.559
I don't know who it is. It's on Donald Trump's
138
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:39.679
digital team that's doing these things, but they need a raise,
139
00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:42.200
they need a raise, They need to be praised. But
140
00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:46.399
sadly though, also needs to be hidden, like, don't say
141
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:48.480
who it is, because we know how the left is.
142
00:08:49.039 --> 00:08:51.279
If the left finds out who it is that's actually
143
00:08:51.279 --> 00:08:53.480
doing it, they will go after him or her or
144
00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:56.799
whoever it is that's doing it. And that's a sad
145
00:08:57.279 --> 00:09:01.799
statement of our times too. But it ishilarious because it's
146
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:05.320
just good old poking fun. And maybe it's just the
147
00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:08.840
gen x in me where you know, we find this
148
00:09:08.879 --> 00:09:12.240
stuff to be hilarious because it's just it's all words.
149
00:09:12.960 --> 00:09:15.440
It's words, a little little poking fun. It's not that
150
00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:17.919
big of a deal. You're gonna be okay, You're you're
151
00:09:17.960 --> 00:09:20.919
gonna go to bed tonight, you're gonna wake up tomorrow morning,
152
00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:25.240
and everything is still gonna be fine. But the left,
153
00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:28.159
they can't handle it. They can't handle it. And it's
154
00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:31.240
okay for them to slam on Donald Trump, it's okay
155
00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:34.960
for them to go after Maga people, but when the
156
00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:39.519
favor is returned, it's so bad. You can't do this
157
00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:42.519
to us, which is also kind of the same attitude
158
00:09:42.519 --> 00:09:47.639
that they're taking it like during the shutdown, like they
159
00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:49.720
I don't know, if somebody hang on a second, let
160
00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:56.519
me let me write this down. Maybe this will help.
161
00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:00.679
And if you if you were watching in the video
162
00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:05.480
version of the show, you'll get this. And I will
163
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:14.120
tell you right lights, you lost. That's the bottom line.
164
00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:19.840
You lost. You lost the elections, and when you lose
165
00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:22.480
the elections, you are no longer in power. So therefore
166
00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:26.840
we don't have to bow down to you, which is
167
00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:30.000
exactly the attitude that they're taking. They don't understand why
168
00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:32.960
the Republicans are not bowing down to us and why
169
00:10:32.960 --> 00:10:35.919
they're not doing exactly what we say. This is wrong.
170
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:39.919
You had to listen to us, and you have to
171
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:42.960
do what we want. You can't just do whatever you want.
172
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:46.279
This isn't right. No, this is exactly right. This is
173
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:51.200
how it works. You have to come to us to negotiate.
174
00:10:51.320 --> 00:10:53.399
You have to come to us and say, hey, here's
175
00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:55.679
some things that we would really like, and we're willing
176
00:10:55.720 --> 00:10:57.879
to sacrifice this, this, and this so that we can
177
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:00.519
we can get a little something, because because that's what
178
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:08.120
you did to us, it's just not fair. And I'm
179
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:12.879
again social media, I'm loving this Christy Jackson. This guy,
180
00:11:12.919 --> 00:11:16.399
he's such an idiot. He really truly is posted a
181
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:21.039
photo of Joe Biden. So it's a good looking black
182
00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:23.000
and white photo. I'm gonna give the photos some credit.
183
00:11:23.080 --> 00:11:25.440
It's a good looking photo, a little portrait thing. And
184
00:11:25.480 --> 00:11:30.000
he said America traded competency and decency for chaos and deprivity.
185
00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:34.559
I'll never understand it. Well, you know, here's the thing,
186
00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:37.960
dumb ass, and that's what you are, Chris Jackson. You're
187
00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:42.720
a dumb ass. What America could traded was we traded
188
00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:47.399
somebody to come in and remodel the kitchen because somebody
189
00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:51.639
came in and splashed it with rainbows and DEI and
190
00:11:51.679 --> 00:11:54.679
all this other bs and made it so that it's
191
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:58.480
so expensive to open up the refrigerator. And we said, no,
192
00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:00.840
we don't like this. We want to renovate the kitchen.
193
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:04.320
And Donald Trump came in to renovate the kitchen. And
194
00:12:04.360 --> 00:12:06.559
in order to renovate the kitchen, one of the things
195
00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:09.600
you have to do is tear out the crap that
196
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:12.200
was put in there initially. And that's what we have
197
00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:15.399
seen Donald Trump do. And look, I think most of
198
00:12:15.480 --> 00:12:20.240
us understand that in order to fix the problems, it's
199
00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:22.360
gonna get a little bit worse because you have to
200
00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:25.639
do the demo work first, and that's what Donald Trump
201
00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:30.360
has been doing. And now that the shutdown has happened, Oh,
202
00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:34.200
there's a full on construction demolition team that is now
203
00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:36.039
standing by and we're gonna get into that in just
204
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:38.840
a second, but first we got to take a quick break.
205
00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:41.000
We'll be right back. This is the Brian Russ Show.
206
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:42.840
Do I't Forget? Today is a Red Friday where we
207
00:12:42.919 --> 00:12:44.799
are brought to you by Oh wait, a second, there's
208
00:12:44.799 --> 00:12:48.519
another one that just popped up. Trump just posted this
209
00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:52.000
incredibly weird AI video of himself and JD. Vance in
210
00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:55.399
a band and Russ Vought as the Grim Reaper. This
211
00:12:55.480 --> 00:12:57.600
is what the president is doing while the government is
212
00:12:57.600 --> 00:13:00.759
shut down. We're so screwed. Oh, Harry sis On shut up.
213
00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:06.039
Oh that's a great one. That is great. I'm gonna
214
00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:07.360
have to listen to that one in the break just
215
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:09.320
to see what that one's all about. Anyhow, we are
216
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:14.240
Read Friday, remembering everyone deployed, including our Ice agents that
217
00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:16.480
are deployed around the country, in our National Guard that
218
00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:18.679
is also out there doing their thing, and especially now
219
00:13:19.000 --> 00:13:21.919
that we are in the shutdown and the potential that
220
00:13:21.960 --> 00:13:24.480
they may not get paid, we got to remember them,
221
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:26.639
thank them for what they are doing. And of course,
222
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:28.799
brought to you by our friends at American Charlie Grill
223
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:31.080

TVs for you to go watch the games as well.
231
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:05.600
Right there at American Charlie, Welcome back to the show.
232
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:07.840
Thanks for waking up with us today. Do appreciate it.
233
00:14:08.200 --> 00:14:12.120
Thanks for watching us today on Rumbleandwimken dot Com. Back
234
00:14:12.159 --> 00:14:14.600
to that for those of you that have missed that
235
00:14:14.759 --> 00:14:17.960
torture of having to watch this hot mess in the morning,
236
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:20.919
there it is, there you go. It is good to
237
00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:26.120
be back though from the vacation slash Mayo trip visits.
238
00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:28.279
And I know a lot of people have been asking
239
00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:31.159
me about the visit because I had made some posts,
240
00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:33.919
you know, just kind of updating as we went along,
241
00:14:34.440 --> 00:14:36.840
and it looks a little bit like this. Just to
242
00:14:36.840 --> 00:14:41.039
give you a quick update, I am once again one
243
00:14:41.039 --> 00:14:45.399
of the male clinics most boring patients. Which I know
244
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:48.720
that seems like a contradiction to say me and boring
245
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:52.120
at the same time, but that is that is kind
246
00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:55.279
of the case. All of my blood work, you know,
247
00:14:55.360 --> 00:14:58.480
looked great, the kidney function looked great. Still ready to
248
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:01.919
hear a couple of tests, but they're pretty confident that
249
00:15:01.960 --> 00:15:04.679
everything is going to be pretty okay. I do have
250
00:15:04.720 --> 00:15:06.399
to go back to the Mail Clinic though, for some
251
00:15:06.519 --> 00:15:09.399
other things, because that's one of the problems when you
252
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:12.840
have when when you get older and with a kidney transplant,
253
00:15:12.879 --> 00:15:16.159
sometimes it does cause other issues. But overall, I'm still
254
00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:20.480
pretty damn healthy and the checkup went great, so that
255
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:23.279
is a good thing. I just it wears me out, though,
256
00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:27.720
And anybody that has gone through these these annual checkups
257
00:15:27.720 --> 00:15:29.279
that you do at the Mayo Clinic, you know that.
258
00:15:30.120 --> 00:15:32.679
And it usually doesn't matter what it is that you're doing,
259
00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:38.120
whether you're going in for a cancer update or you know,
260
00:15:38.159 --> 00:15:40.559
a transplant update or whatever it might be. When they
261
00:15:40.559 --> 00:15:42.639
start running all these tests on you to check everything,
262
00:15:42.720 --> 00:15:48.039
it's exhausting, it really truly is. So yeah, it's good
263
00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:50.039
to finally be home. I actually have a little bit
264
00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:52.559
of energy today, mostly because I'm also able to drink
265
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:55.000
some knock it off coffee. I did not bring any
266
00:15:55.000 --> 00:15:57.240
of it with me because you know, in the hotels
267
00:15:57.279 --> 00:15:59.320
that you don't really have a good coffee maker, so
268
00:15:59.679 --> 00:16:01.279
I was kind of forced to drink some of that
269
00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:04.200
hotel coffee. And let me tell you, that crap is
270
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:07.320
just I don't I don't know it's they call it
271
00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:10.600
rainforest blend or something, and it literally tastes like you're
272
00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:14.159
scraping the ground off of the rainforest. It's just the
273
00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:18.600
nastiest stuff. So and that's right, Dean. A positive attitude
274
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:21.000
and trusting God goes a long way. And you know
275
00:16:21.080 --> 00:16:23.799
what I have, I've I've preached that for a long
276
00:16:23.840 --> 00:16:27.879
time when it comes to you know, illnesses, and and look,
277
00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:30.600
I have dealt with a lot of a lot of
278
00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:34.240
health issues for a long time, specifically with the kidney.
279
00:16:34.720 --> 00:16:38.440
Uh and uh, you know, having that positive attitude does
280
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:40.559
really truly help. And that was actually one of the
281
00:16:40.559 --> 00:16:44.080
things that I was having a conversation with with some
282
00:16:44.120 --> 00:16:47.399
of the crew at the Mayo Clinic the other day
283
00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:51.559
because they were getting it ready, getting you ready to
284
00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:56.240
do the the the biopsy on the kidney, which was
285
00:16:56.279 --> 00:16:58.559
the most intense thing that I actually had to do
286
00:16:58.600 --> 00:17:02.320
the entire time that I was there. And uh, you know,
287
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:05.160
I'm I'm just I'm generally kind of a goofy guy anyhow,
288
00:17:05.160 --> 00:17:07.799
and I'm always got a pretty positive attitude. And when
289
00:17:07.799 --> 00:17:10.720
I don't, you know that I'm probably really pissed off
290
00:17:10.759 --> 00:17:13.440
about something and it's probably a time to head the
291
00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:16.279
other direction and avoid me for a little bit. But
292
00:17:16.400 --> 00:17:18.839
we were having the conversation about it, and uh, you know,
293
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:21.680
the the nurse that was setting everything up, she looked
294
00:17:21.680 --> 00:17:23.279
at me and she's like, you know, it really is
295
00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:25.279
great to actually have somebody with such a great attitude,
296
00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:28.359
because she was even telling me, she's like, you can
297
00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:32.240
tell the people that always come through that are doing
298
00:17:32.319 --> 00:17:35.480
the best, even if even if things aren't the greatest,
299
00:17:35.480 --> 00:17:37.519
but they're still doing the best. Are the ones with
300
00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:40.640
the best attitudes, you know, the ones that are not
301
00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:45.160
coming in all fearful and scared and and everything else.
302
00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:48.680
And when you're just in there to to uh, you know,
303
00:17:49.240 --> 00:17:51.599
be positive about it and know that that things are
304
00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:53.559
pretty good, it, it goes a long way. And I
305
00:17:53.880 --> 00:17:58.559
can't preach that enough for anybody who is who is
306
00:17:58.640 --> 00:18:02.240
ill with anything, whether it be you know, a cancer
307
00:18:02.359 --> 00:18:06.559
diagnosis or you know, a transplant diagnosis or whatever it
308
00:18:06.640 --> 00:18:11.960
might be, having a positive attitude takes you so far.
309
00:18:12.720 --> 00:18:14.839
And the crew there at the Mail clinic as we
310
00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:17.279
were talking about it, they agreed one hundred percent. They said,
311
00:18:17.640 --> 00:18:19.680
you know, having that positive attitude is a good thing,
312
00:18:19.720 --> 00:18:22.799
So you really got to do that. Just keep it positive.
313
00:18:23.400 --> 00:18:26.240
Which I know nowadays is tough to do. With all
314
00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:28.839
the stuff that's going on in our world, it is
315
00:18:28.920 --> 00:18:31.640
hard to have a positive attitude, like even here in
316
00:18:31.640 --> 00:18:33.759
the Knackadoff studio. As much as I love being in
317
00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:36.519
the Knockadoff studio, I have to admit it is time
318
00:18:36.559 --> 00:18:39.119
for a new chair because this chair is the most
319
00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:42.720
uncomfortable thing that I've sat on in a while. And
320
00:18:42.759 --> 00:18:46.119
I'm just I don't know, it's time for this chair
321
00:18:46.200 --> 00:18:48.279
to go. But I'm trying to be positive because look,
322
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:52.039
I'm back in the Knockodoff studio. I have our rumble
323
00:18:52.079 --> 00:18:54.319
and whim can feedback up again. I've got all the
324
00:18:54.359 --> 00:18:57.599
equipment that I need. I've got my knock it off
325
00:18:57.599 --> 00:19:00.559
coffee that I could drink. I've gone Charlie and Lucky
326
00:19:00.640 --> 00:19:07.039
running around. Life is good. So having a little bit
327
00:19:07.039 --> 00:19:08.880
of a positive attitude, even though there are some things
328
00:19:08.920 --> 00:19:11.920
in life that are a little stressful, it does help
329
00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:15.759
a lot. So Yeah, anyhow, what else we got to
330
00:19:15.799 --> 00:19:17.559
talk about today? We got so much to talk about.
331
00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:19.279
But now that I've rambled on about stuff and took
332
00:19:19.319 --> 00:19:22.200
up this entire segment, I don't really have enough time
333
00:19:22.240 --> 00:19:24.880
to dive into anything and don't have enough time to
334
00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:28.480
not dive into something because I boo booed, because we've
335
00:19:28.519 --> 00:19:31.799
got our hard break coming up here at the bottom
336
00:19:31.839 --> 00:19:35.720
of the hour. But the shutdown, this is becoming more
337
00:19:35.720 --> 00:19:39.079
and more entertaining every moment, and we're gonna talk about
338
00:19:39.079 --> 00:19:41.240
it coming up in just a little bit. What's that
339
00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:44.240
the X chair? See the problem with the X chair.
340
00:19:44.279 --> 00:19:47.759
The X chair is low, and the studio is actually
341
00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:50.640
it's not a low desk, it's like not in normal height.
342
00:19:50.720 --> 00:19:53.799
The desk in the studio is about was that about
343
00:19:53.839 --> 00:19:58.119
three feet high, so it's like a standard TV studio,
344
00:19:58.240 --> 00:20:02.519
radio studio desk in the height side. So it's gonna
345
00:20:02.519 --> 00:20:05.079
be difficult to find that a chair that really truly fits.
346
00:20:05.079 --> 00:20:06.839
And this thing squeaks. I don't know if you ever
347
00:20:06.880 --> 00:20:10.079
hear it on the microphone or not, but it squeaks
348
00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:12.359
like crazy. And the fact that it's uncomfortable and I
349
00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:17.079
keep squirming in the chair because it's just uncomfy. You know,
350
00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:20.079
it's just it's one of these things. But look, positive attitude,
351
00:20:20.119 --> 00:20:21.799
even though there's one thing that just kind of tears
352
00:20:21.799 --> 00:20:26.160
it apart here. Positive attitude. But yeah, the shutdown, this
353
00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:28.480
is becoming more and more entertaining. We're gonna talk about
354
00:20:28.519 --> 00:20:32.960
that coming up after the break, because the Left screwed up.
355
00:20:33.880 --> 00:20:36.519
They screwed up big time when it came to allowing
356
00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:40.839
this whole shutdown to even happen. So we're gonna talk
357
00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:42.480
about that coming up in a couple of minutes. So
358
00:20:42.519 --> 00:20:44.599
for again, you could also check out the show at
359
00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:46.759
the Brian Rushshow dot com. We finally got the new
360
00:20:46.799 --> 00:20:49.720
website up and running, providing that GoDaddy doesn't f with
361
00:20:49.759 --> 00:20:52.680
it anymore, because if they do, I'm probably going to jail.
362
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:55.119
I'm just saying, but go check that out. We got
363
00:20:55.119 --> 00:20:56.559
to take a quick break though for a bottom of
364
00:20:56.559 --> 00:21:09.480
the hour. We'll be right back. Good morning, all right,
365
00:21:09.559 --> 00:21:11.240
welcome back to the Brian Rush Show here at our
366
00:21:11.279 --> 00:21:14.200
Red Friday. Happy Friday to you. We finally made it
367
00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:19.200
to that big weekend road Gray, Good morning to you.
368
00:21:19.440 --> 00:21:22.839
A good point. The Dems should get Kamala to explain
369
00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:26.000
why they won't agree on the spending plan. Probably has
370
00:21:26.039 --> 00:21:28.440
something to do with the electric yellow school buses. Can
371
00:21:28.480 --> 00:21:32.039
you imagine? Can you imagine Kamala Harris having to get
372
00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:37.799
out and explain the reason for the shutdown. It would
373
00:21:37.799 --> 00:21:39.279
actually be kind of funny.
374
00:21:40.079 --> 00:21:40.279
Is it?
375
00:21:41.400 --> 00:21:47.039
What happened was is okay, everybody, listen, listen, listen up.
376
00:21:47.079 --> 00:21:51.880
It's Kamala has And and I'm gonna spend see you
377
00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:56.039
the monies and the monies which with the with the
378
00:21:56.119 --> 00:21:59.079
dollars and with the in the dollars that go in
379
00:21:59.440 --> 00:22:00.640
your your purse.
380
00:22:02.880 --> 00:22:06.480
I got a purse. What happened was is that.
381
00:22:07.119 --> 00:22:11.640
You see, we wanted to put more dollars in somebody
382
00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:16.680
else's bust, and the Republicans said, no, you have to
383
00:22:16.720 --> 00:22:19.240
pay your bar tab before you can leave. I don't
384
00:22:19.279 --> 00:22:21.160
know why this's got a pat of barn tab all
385
00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:21.559
the time.
386
00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:27.440
It would be hilarious to have Kamala Harris actually do
387
00:22:27.599 --> 00:22:32.920
that and ap it would be pretty funny. If I
388
00:22:32.920 --> 00:22:35.960
did have a sombrero. I don't have one, and if
389
00:22:35.960 --> 00:22:37.759
I did, I would wear one in casey, you're right,
390
00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:40.240
with all the Diegos that I consume, I should have
391
00:22:40.640 --> 00:22:42.640
I should have one, and I don't know why you don't.
392
00:22:43.799 --> 00:22:45.799
But you know what, actually, now that I think about it,
393
00:22:46.000 --> 00:22:49.000
with all the Diegos that I consume, I should also
394
00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:52.519
have a Diego's T shirt. I'm just I'm throwing that
395
00:22:52.519 --> 00:22:56.079
out there into the wind. I don't I do have
396
00:22:56.160 --> 00:22:58.960
my uh what was that the T shirt that I got,
397
00:22:59.039 --> 00:23:06.039
the the Barrito Benditto, the Barrito Benditto T shirt. Yeah. Anyhow,
398
00:23:06.599 --> 00:23:11.480
it would be pretty funny though, to have Kabala Harris explaining, uh,
399
00:23:11.599 --> 00:23:17.960
the the the budget cuts, the shutdown because she couldn't
400
00:23:17.960 --> 00:23:20.400
get through it. She couldn't get through, especially if the
401
00:23:20.440 --> 00:23:24.000
teleprompter stopped, or like even if if Joe Biden had
402
00:23:24.000 --> 00:23:29.119
to do it. Well, you see, when I was a kid,
403
00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:34.440
I'm not kidding. This is not hyperbole here, no joke.
404
00:23:34.640 --> 00:23:38.880
When I was a kid, my dad uh bless his heart,
405
00:23:39.119 --> 00:23:43.519
uh right, the rest of his soul with the windshield
406
00:23:43.880 --> 00:23:47.759
and then with the cancer. It would be able to
407
00:23:47.799 --> 00:23:50.440
figure it out. But the bottom line is, though, when
408
00:23:50.440 --> 00:23:54.200
it comes to the shutdown, the Democrats, they got caught
409
00:23:54.240 --> 00:23:56.440
in their lie and they didn't even realize it. And
410
00:23:56.519 --> 00:23:58.839
they still don't even really truly realize that they've been
411
00:23:58.839 --> 00:24:03.599
caught in their lie because they're trying to do the
412
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:08.039
whole healthcare thing even though that's where their lie is.
413
00:24:09.400 --> 00:24:11.960
They wanted to add another one point five trillion dollars
414
00:24:12.039 --> 00:24:16.359
in spending in this fiscal year, one point five trillion
415
00:24:16.400 --> 00:24:21.119
dollars an addition to what we're already spending. I mean,
416
00:24:23.039 --> 00:24:25.680
just the average. I mean, I think even Kamala Harris
417
00:24:25.759 --> 00:24:28.279
in one of her drunken stupors might even be able
418
00:24:28.519 --> 00:24:31.680
to sit there and reasoningly go, hey, wait a second.
419
00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:35.119
Didn't for like the past seven months, didn't we go
420
00:24:35.200 --> 00:24:38.240
through this doze thing where they exposed all of the
421
00:24:38.559 --> 00:24:41.839
waste and the fraud and abuse. Would it probably not
422
00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:44.880
be a good idea for us to turn around and say, hey,
423
00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:47.640
even though we were given a roadmap and a blueprint
424
00:24:47.640 --> 00:24:49.680
on how to do all these cuts, would it be
425
00:24:49.839 --> 00:24:52.000
a bad idea to say, hey, let's add another one
426
00:24:52.039 --> 00:24:56.599
point five trillion dollars to the spending. But they did
427
00:24:56.599 --> 00:24:58.920
it anyhow, And then on top of it, the argument
428
00:24:59.000 --> 00:25:02.359
about the healthcare, and of course they're not doing the
429
00:25:02.480 --> 00:25:07.039
argument correctly with accuracy and not lying. They got to
430
00:25:07.160 --> 00:25:12.160
use fear, you're going to lose your health care. You
431
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:15.480
know what, those of us that work in the private industry,
432
00:25:15.720 --> 00:25:19.119
we've not lost our healthcare. We're okay, everything is fine,
433
00:25:19.200 --> 00:25:25.160
you're good, all right, cool, We're all good. The only
434
00:25:25.200 --> 00:25:28.839
people that are really losing their healthcare in the cuts
435
00:25:28.880 --> 00:25:31.599
that were proposed in the big beautiful bill are the
436
00:25:32.960 --> 00:25:36.640
couple of million illegals that were on it and the
437
00:25:36.680 --> 00:25:40.240
able bodied workers. They're not going after mom and dad
438
00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:42.440
and grandma and grandpa and cutting them off. They're not
439
00:25:42.480 --> 00:25:46.119
going after the low income single mother who really needs it.
440
00:25:46.240 --> 00:25:47.920
That's not who they're going after, but that's what they
441
00:25:47.960 --> 00:25:51.400
make it out to be. And of course, the other
442
00:25:51.440 --> 00:25:56.240
thing when it comes to the healthcare situation and jd
443
00:25:56.359 --> 00:26:01.799
Ern JD Hakeem, Jeffries, Timu Obama, he's getting busted in
444
00:26:01.880 --> 00:26:04.079
his lie all the time, and so is it Chuck Schumer.
445
00:26:04.119 --> 00:26:06.319
Because the thing that they keep saying is that there's
446
00:26:06.319 --> 00:26:09.559
not a single dime, not one dime, not one dime
447
00:26:09.559 --> 00:26:13.640
in federal money is going to the health insurance, remember words,
448
00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:18.440
the health insurance of illegals, which we know is none
449
00:26:18.480 --> 00:26:21.400
true because there was at least one point five ish
450
00:26:21.640 --> 00:26:25.440
maybe a little bit more illegals that were on Medicaid
451
00:26:26.079 --> 00:26:29.880
by the way, that's health insurance. So yes, there was
452
00:26:30.079 --> 00:26:33.880
some dollars in dimes going to the illegals with that,
453
00:26:34.480 --> 00:26:38.319
but that is not the area that the illegals are
454
00:26:38.359 --> 00:26:42.480
getting the free health insurance. The area that they are
455
00:26:42.480 --> 00:26:44.200
getting the free health insurance. And this is where they
456
00:26:44.279 --> 00:26:48.480
keep lying to everybody, is that there are subsidies that
457
00:26:48.519 --> 00:26:51.640
are given out to hospitals. And remember this is the
458
00:26:51.680 --> 00:26:54.039
other thing. Oh my god, all these hospitals are going
459
00:26:54.119 --> 00:26:56.559
to close down, and it's gonna be the worst thing.
460
00:26:56.599 --> 00:26:59.400
And they're shutting down, and oh my god, the Republicans
461
00:26:59.400 --> 00:27:04.519
are taken away your health care and your hospitals, the
462
00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:08.240
subsidies that we're going to these hospitals specifically to pay
463
00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:11.519
for the illegals who have had just walked into the
464
00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:18.519
emergency room and required healthcare. That's what they're doing. They're
465
00:27:18.599 --> 00:27:21.480
basically saying, we're not going to pay for these people
466
00:27:21.519 --> 00:27:26.039
to get health insurance or health coverage. Go home, go
467
00:27:26.119 --> 00:27:28.839
to where you're from. Stop living off of our dime.
468
00:27:29.680 --> 00:27:32.319
And of course the Democrats have been completely wrong about that.
469
00:27:32.400 --> 00:27:35.480
And of course King Jeffries trying to get out there
470
00:27:35.559 --> 00:27:37.839
and and do his stuff without Donald Trump and putting
471
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:41.559
a sombrero on him and playing the mariachi band in
472
00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:44.960
the background. And actually, you know what, it seems wrong
473
00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:49.240
to be even to be talking about Hakeem Jeffries without
474
00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:51.680
the proper stuff. So hang on with a second year.
475
00:27:52.359 --> 00:27:58.000
We got to do this. If we're going to talk
476
00:27:58.039 --> 00:28:08.759
about Hakim Jeffries, let's do it right there we go, Yeah, oh,
477
00:28:08.799 --> 00:28:10.519
this is bad news that I'm back in the studio
478
00:28:10.720 --> 00:28:15.200
anyhow So, Hakim Jeffries now kind of contradicting some of
479
00:28:15.240 --> 00:28:18.079
his fellow Democrats too when he claims that the government
480
00:28:18.119 --> 00:28:23.160
shutdown is not over giving healthcare to the illegals. He's
481
00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:25.720
been taken to every place that somebody would put him
482
00:28:25.720 --> 00:28:29.440
on camera to talk about it, and Jeffries told ABC's
483
00:28:29.480 --> 00:28:32.039
Good Morning America, the federal law prohibits the use of
484
00:28:32.160 --> 00:28:37.160
Medicaid and Medicare and the Children's Health Insurance Program and
485
00:28:37.319 --> 00:28:41.480
the Affordable Care Act to provide health insurance in any way,
486
00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:45.000
shape or form to undocumented immigrants, period, full stop. That's
487
00:28:45.039 --> 00:28:50.480
the law, and Democraocrats aren't trying to change that now.
488
00:28:52.319 --> 00:28:58.480
He's right, However, explain the one and a half plus
489
00:28:58.680 --> 00:29:04.240
million illegal that we're on Medicaid and medicare. Explain that
490
00:29:04.319 --> 00:29:10.039
one period, full stop. That's the law. How is it
491
00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:15.119
that they're able to get it? And just because you're
492
00:29:15.160 --> 00:29:18.799
saying that they are not allowed to have the insurance
493
00:29:19.680 --> 00:29:22.559
doesn't mean we're not still spending money on the healthcare
494
00:29:22.920 --> 00:29:26.359
of the illegals, and that is what we're doing, and
495
00:29:26.400 --> 00:29:30.440
they don't see it, they don't understand it, and we're
496
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:35.039
spending a lot of money on them. Now I am
497
00:29:35.119 --> 00:29:41.839
I am totally okay with with the Americans who maybe
498
00:29:41.880 --> 00:29:46.119
need help, because look, there are times when when things
499
00:29:46.160 --> 00:29:49.680
happen to American citizens. And I'm not talking about people
500
00:29:49.680 --> 00:29:52.400
that are under the protective status. I'm not talking about
501
00:29:52.400 --> 00:29:56.440
the the the visa holders or anything. I'm talking about
502
00:29:56.559 --> 00:30:00.839
the American citizens. Some of them they need help. And
503
00:30:01.240 --> 00:30:05.519
when you have a horrible health situation or your employment
504
00:30:05.559 --> 00:30:08.079
goes away, your income is reduced to the point where
505
00:30:08.079 --> 00:30:10.440
you can't afford your healthcare. And believe me, I've been there.
506
00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:15.279
I've been there where that has happened. So I understand.
507
00:30:16.359 --> 00:30:20.119
Then let's help out our fellow Americans in their time
508
00:30:20.160 --> 00:30:24.759
of need. When you are somebody who has cancer and
509
00:30:24.799 --> 00:30:29.359
you can't work and you can't work to get your insurance,
510
00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:32.799
we should be helping them out. But helping out just
511
00:30:32.960 --> 00:30:35.920
as somebody who came across our border illegally breaking our laws.
512
00:30:36.480 --> 00:30:39.839
Even if you only broke the one law of crossing
513
00:30:39.839 --> 00:30:43.039
the border and coming in here, you're still here illegally.
514
00:30:43.599 --> 00:30:46.680
Even if you have been a productive part of society
515
00:30:47.039 --> 00:30:51.160
and all the other stuff, you're still here illegally. Just
516
00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:53.920
because you broke into the front door of my house
517
00:30:53.960 --> 00:30:56.119
and you're now sitting on my couch doesn't mean that
518
00:30:56.160 --> 00:30:58.759
I need to be feeding you dinner because you cleaned
519
00:30:58.839 --> 00:31:03.319
up the floor. I don't need to be taken care
520
00:31:03.359 --> 00:31:08.720
of you. You broke into my house, get out, knock
521
00:31:08.799 --> 00:31:10.559
on the door, ask me if you can come in,
522
00:31:11.440 --> 00:31:12.920
Ask me if you can come in, and if I
523
00:31:12.960 --> 00:31:14.920
can make some dinner for you, and I'll make that
524
00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:18.440
decision of yes or no. That's not how it's working
525
00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:23.160
with these illegals. And and again, the the Democrats in
526
00:31:23.200 --> 00:31:26.440
full beltown mode over all of this, and they're trying
527
00:31:26.519 --> 00:31:30.440
their hardest to say that the immigrants are not getting
528
00:31:30.680 --> 00:31:34.039
the illegal immigrants or the undocumented immigrants. I'm sorry, you've
529
00:31:34.039 --> 00:31:36.359
got to get that right. Are we still using what
530
00:31:36.400 --> 00:31:38.160
was that other word that they had for a while.
531
00:31:38.799 --> 00:31:41.079
I can't keep up with their their phrases all the time.
532
00:31:41.400 --> 00:31:44.079
The what was it?
533
00:31:44.079 --> 00:31:44.480
It was?
534
00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:49.319
Uh newcomers, remember that one? What a dumb phrase that was.
535
00:31:50.599 --> 00:31:54.519
But the illegal aliens? You can't call people illegal, Yes,
536
00:31:54.599 --> 00:31:56.480
we can and we're doing it. So get over it
537
00:31:58.599 --> 00:32:01.480
with the fact that they are here. This is what
538
00:32:01.519 --> 00:32:04.200
the what the the left wants. And think about the
539
00:32:04.759 --> 00:32:08.119
hundreds of billions of dollars that we have already spent
540
00:32:08.200 --> 00:32:14.240
on illegals and what it's doing to the the leftist communities.
541
00:32:14.519 --> 00:32:17.920
And that's the other thing. We in the that live
542
00:32:18.000 --> 00:32:21.400
in the the blue areas, the blue run cities, sure
543
00:32:21.480 --> 00:32:23.240
we have them. I mean, look, there was just some
544
00:32:23.359 --> 00:32:27.039
bust the other day again of some illegals here in
545
00:32:27.519 --> 00:32:30.519
Bay County, Florida. And you know, Bay County, Florida and
546
00:32:30.680 --> 00:32:34.640
the surrounding area. We are very very much so Republican,
547
00:32:34.720 --> 00:32:38.720
sixty seventy percent Republican. But we yeah, we've had some
548
00:32:38.759 --> 00:32:41.920
illegals here, but we don't have the crime, the issues,
549
00:32:42.279 --> 00:32:45.279
and everything else that that some of the blue areas have.
550
00:32:46.000 --> 00:32:48.079
And again, Donald Trump is just going in and cleaning
551
00:32:48.160 --> 00:32:51.200
up the blue areas. He's not going after the citizens,
552
00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:55.960
the hardworking Americans whose taxpayer dollars are going to all
553
00:32:56.000 --> 00:33:00.359
this stuff, The hard working American citizens whose hall are
554
00:33:00.359 --> 00:33:04.079
being broken into, businesses are being ravaged, and their children
555
00:33:04.119 --> 00:33:08.240
are being murdered and daughters and wives being raped. We're
556
00:33:08.240 --> 00:33:10.759
not seeing that in the red cities. We're only seeing
557
00:33:10.759 --> 00:33:12.759
that in the blue cities. And Donald Trump is trying
558
00:33:12.759 --> 00:33:15.759
to help that, and the left like is completely opposed
559
00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:19.839
to it. They just, oh, man, it's so mean what
560
00:33:19.880 --> 00:33:22.319
you're doing to the illegals. What do you mean is mean?
561
00:33:22.359 --> 00:33:25.400
What we're doing to the illegals? What about the young
562
00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:28.920
woman who'd been murdered? How is that not mean? How
563
00:33:28.920 --> 00:33:31.559
about grandma who's trying to go to the grocery store,
564
00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:33.640
go play bingo or whatever it is that she's going
565
00:33:33.680 --> 00:33:35.720
off to do, and she gets to living crap kicked
566
00:33:35.720 --> 00:33:37.720
out of her in the subway by an illegal immigrant.
567
00:33:39.160 --> 00:33:41.960
What about Dad who's on his way into the office
568
00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:44.400
to work a hard day's work so that he can
569
00:33:44.440 --> 00:33:47.160
come home and provide for his family, and some piece
570
00:33:47.200 --> 00:33:50.319
of crap comes up and carjacks's car and runs away
571
00:33:50.359 --> 00:33:53.559
with it. Or better yeah, carjacks the car and shoots
572
00:33:53.680 --> 00:33:59.359
kills dad. Where's the outrage about that? And they don't
573
00:33:59.400 --> 00:34:03.799
get upset up about it, And instead the left, the
574
00:34:03.880 --> 00:34:07.400
politicians are jumping on this whole health care thing because sure,
575
00:34:07.519 --> 00:34:09.719
it can be scary if you don't have health insurance
576
00:34:09.719 --> 00:34:11.880
and you need it, But it's also kind of a
577
00:34:12.360 --> 00:34:15.960
it's kind of a false argument because look, the reality
578
00:34:16.039 --> 00:34:20.519
is that most of Americans are healthy and don't need
579
00:34:20.800 --> 00:34:25.000
the regular health insurance and don't need to be going
580
00:34:25.039 --> 00:34:27.199
to the doctor all the time. So it's still a
581
00:34:27.239 --> 00:34:29.639
small portion of the population that they're kind of fearing with.
582
00:34:32.039 --> 00:34:34.800
But let's talk about the real problems that are out there,
583
00:34:34.840 --> 00:34:39.239
and they're not doing it. However, now with this shutdown
584
00:34:39.519 --> 00:34:42.440
that the Democrats are trying to say is over healthcare
585
00:34:42.519 --> 00:34:45.119
and trying to make sure that health care for everybody.
586
00:34:45.519 --> 00:34:47.719
We had to get health care for everybody. That's what
587
00:34:47.760 --> 00:34:50.599
Maxine Waters said when she was approached by a reporter
588
00:34:51.000 --> 00:34:55.199
who approached her about saying, Hey, you guys are taking
589
00:34:55.199 --> 00:34:57.800
care of the illegals. No, we're not, stop saying that
590
00:34:57.840 --> 00:35:01.679
you're a horrible reporter. We just want healthcare for everybody. See,
591
00:35:01.719 --> 00:35:06.400
it's all in the words that they pick. But now
592
00:35:06.440 --> 00:35:10.639
the budgets with the shutdown, and I don't have enough
593
00:35:10.639 --> 00:35:12.320
time to dive into this, but we're going to in
594
00:35:12.320 --> 00:35:16.480
a little bit with Russ Vaughant now teaming up with
595
00:35:16.519 --> 00:35:19.519
Donald Trump to go in and do the stuff that
596
00:35:19.599 --> 00:35:24.599
the Democrats completely did not think about. They completely did
597
00:35:24.599 --> 00:35:29.119
not think about the fact that once Donald Trump is
598
00:35:29.159 --> 00:35:32.599
in the shutdown mode, he has the power and the
599
00:35:32.679 --> 00:35:40.199
authority to cut programs, spending and personnel. So for the
600
00:35:40.280 --> 00:35:42.920
very few people in the country that are being affected
601
00:35:42.920 --> 00:35:46.840
by the the health insurancey illegals, now you're going to
602
00:35:46.920 --> 00:35:54.760
have programs, departments, people, budgets eliminated. Was it worth it, dems,
603
00:35:55.280 --> 00:35:58.840
Because now in a very short period of time, you're
604
00:35:58.880 --> 00:36:01.199
going to realize how bad of an idea that was.
605
00:36:01.800 --> 00:36:03.239
All right, we got to take a quick break. It
606
00:36:03.280 --> 00:36:05.480
is a Red Friday where we remember everyone deployed, including
607
00:36:05.519 --> 00:36:07.320
all of our ice agents that are out to try
608
00:36:07.400 --> 00:36:10.840
to save this country and make this country a better
609
00:36:10.880 --> 00:36:13.719
place again. We ken brought to you by our friends
610
00:36:13.719 --> 00:36:17.000
at America Charlie Grilla Tavern right there on Panama City Beach.
611
00:36:17.280 --> 00:36:19.719
Next time you're in town, head on over and check
612
00:36:19.719 --> 00:36:21.599
out their new menu, their new extended hours, and of
613
00:36:21.639 --> 00:36:24.039
course this weekend with all the football, go check out
614
00:36:24.039 --> 00:36:39.480
some of the games. We'll be right back. All right,
615
00:36:39.519 --> 00:36:41.639
Welcome back to the Brian Rush Show here on Florida
616
00:36:41.639 --> 00:36:46.079
Man Radio Network, also streaming on Rumble and Wimken. Thanks
617
00:36:46.079 --> 00:36:48.159
so much for getting your day started. With US Gavin
618
00:36:48.159 --> 00:36:52.559
Newsom out to remind us about the shutdowns. October one,
619
00:36:52.719 --> 00:36:57.840
twenty twenty five, President Trump, shutdown December twenty second, twenty eighteen,
620
00:36:57.920 --> 00:37:03.280
President Trump. January two. It's twenty eighteen, President Trump. Almost like,
621
00:37:03.400 --> 00:37:05.719
there's a pattern here, and you know what there is?
622
00:37:06.719 --> 00:37:09.920
There is a pattern here. There is a pattern here
623
00:37:10.079 --> 00:37:15.119
where the Democrats have voted thirteen different times for this
624
00:37:15.360 --> 00:37:19.719
pretty much exact same continuing resolution, but now that Donald
625
00:37:19.719 --> 00:37:23.679
Trump is in office again they vote against it. I
626
00:37:23.800 --> 00:37:25.679
was for it before, I was against it, when I
627
00:37:25.719 --> 00:37:27.719
was against it before I was for it, And then
628
00:37:27.760 --> 00:37:30.119
there was the left back, forward, up, down, left, right,
629
00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:37.400
and she's a he. But yes, under Donald Trump, there
630
00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:41.639
have been more shutdowns. But it's not because it's Donald
631
00:37:41.679 --> 00:37:45.480
Trump that wanted the shutdown. Every single one of them
632
00:37:45.800 --> 00:37:50.480
were because of the Democrats. The Democrats wanting things that
633
00:37:50.519 --> 00:37:55.360
were unreasonable and the Republicans actually doing what they should
634
00:37:55.400 --> 00:37:58.679
be doing and pushing back and saying no, I don't
635
00:37:58.679 --> 00:38:03.440
think so. But again, we have to be selective when
636
00:38:03.480 --> 00:38:05.159
it comes to the facts. We don't want to we
637
00:38:05.199 --> 00:38:06.800
don't want to look at all of the facts and
638
00:38:07.039 --> 00:38:10.679
and and actually well be honest about them. Then, of
639
00:38:10.679 --> 00:38:14.079
course the left takes this information and they run with it.
640
00:38:15.039 --> 00:38:17.760
But there is a pattern, and the pattern is the
641
00:38:17.800 --> 00:38:21.760
Democrats thinking that everybody must bow down to them. Know
642
00:38:21.880 --> 00:38:25.800
if ans or butts about it when they're in power,
643
00:38:26.519 --> 00:38:29.960
sit down, Republicans. You guys lost, We're the ones in control.
644
00:38:30.679 --> 00:38:34.000
When the Republicans win, the Democrats throw their fit. How
645
00:38:34.039 --> 00:38:36.559
good we can't have Well, you have to listen to us.
646
00:38:36.760 --> 00:38:38.679
No we don't. That's the reason for why you lost
647
00:38:38.719 --> 00:38:42.280
the election. We don't have to listen to you. But
648
00:38:42.320 --> 00:38:45.519
they continually do that. It's just over and over and
649
00:38:45.559 --> 00:38:49.760
over again. It's like, I really truly do want Chuck
650
00:38:49.800 --> 00:38:55.159
Schumer to get primary Chuck you Schumer. He's got to go,
651
00:38:56.440 --> 00:38:59.679
absolutely positively has got to go. And the other thing too.
652
00:38:59.719 --> 00:39:05.800
I I've asked this before when it comes to the Democrats,
653
00:39:07.000 --> 00:39:09.400
is King Jeffries really the best you can do for
654
00:39:09.519 --> 00:39:13.400
leadership in the House. I mean, when you look at
655
00:39:13.440 --> 00:39:16.920
all the other people that are Democrats, is a King
656
00:39:17.079 --> 00:39:21.800
Jeffries really the best you can do? And when you
657
00:39:21.840 --> 00:39:27.039
look at who the Democrats continually elevate up to a
658
00:39:28.199 --> 00:39:32.559
position of power, it just you got to scratch your
659
00:39:32.559 --> 00:39:36.480
head a little bit. And just be like, is there
660
00:39:36.519 --> 00:39:39.960
not anybody better? I mean, I understand that right now
661
00:39:40.239 --> 00:39:43.920
we are getting into a time where politics have gotten
662
00:39:44.039 --> 00:39:48.880
so nasty, so ugly, that a lot of people don't
663
00:39:48.960 --> 00:39:52.639
want to go down that road. And I understand that
664
00:39:53.079 --> 00:39:58.920
even though the patriotic side of you should really say, well,
665
00:39:59.039 --> 00:40:01.639
it's worth the sack her vices to be able to
666
00:40:01.639 --> 00:40:05.119
save our country. But we've gotten to a point now
667
00:40:05.239 --> 00:40:08.360
where there's so much nastiness in our in our politics,
668
00:40:08.400 --> 00:40:13.000
and they're in everything is just so negative, then why
669
00:40:13.039 --> 00:40:15.800
would anybody want to get in it? So I guess
670
00:40:15.840 --> 00:40:18.000
that's the reason for why we are stuck with people
671
00:40:18.559 --> 00:40:24.639
like he Keim Jeffries, like AOC, like to lead a rashive,
672
00:40:25.000 --> 00:40:27.840
and all these others that are just the worst people ever.
673
00:40:29.760 --> 00:40:32.800
You're right, Chew, He's a DEI guy, And maybe that's
674
00:40:32.800 --> 00:40:36.880
what it is. Maybe the reason for why he came
675
00:40:37.000 --> 00:40:40.360
Jeffries is in that role was because of the DEI
676
00:40:42.559 --> 00:40:46.480
and the fact that he is like the Timu version
677
00:40:46.559 --> 00:40:50.119
of Obama. Maybe they looked at it and said, look,
678
00:40:50.119 --> 00:40:53.480
if we're going to replace the white woman, we should
679
00:40:53.480 --> 00:40:59.760
replace her with a good looking, well spoken black guy,
680
00:41:01.920 --> 00:41:04.360
very light skin black guy. But still you could say
681
00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:11.239
he's black, and again there's plenty of black Democrats that
682
00:41:11.360 --> 00:41:13.440
actually could have gone in there and done a much
683
00:41:13.480 --> 00:41:16.559
better job. As a matter of fact, last night's dinner
684
00:41:16.559 --> 00:41:19.679
that I saw this morning could probably also do a
685
00:41:19.719 --> 00:41:25.800
better job than Hakeem Jeffries. But the thing that's just
686
00:41:25.840 --> 00:41:29.559
gotten out of control is the amount of lies in propaganda.
687
00:41:30.199 --> 00:41:32.199
And again, this is I think another reason for why
688
00:41:32.239 --> 00:41:34.679
the Smith Munt Act needs to come back and why
689
00:41:34.719 --> 00:41:38.559
Donald Trump hasn't brought that back yet. It blows my
690
00:41:38.639 --> 00:41:42.800
mind because it would force the media to stop with
691
00:41:42.840 --> 00:41:46.559
their propaganda and going right along with it. It'll force
692
00:41:46.639 --> 00:41:49.760
the media for the next time that you have Hakeem
693
00:41:49.800 --> 00:41:53.079
Jeffries that comes on and says that not a single
694
00:41:53.119 --> 00:41:56.559
dime or even Chuck shu it comes on and says
695
00:41:56.559 --> 00:41:58.400
not a single dime of tax payer money has been
696
00:41:58.440 --> 00:42:03.480
spent on illegals healthcare or insurance. That's when they should
697
00:42:03.480 --> 00:42:06.280
be doing their job and saying, well, actually, you know what, senator,
698
00:42:06.280 --> 00:42:10.519
you are absolutely right, but however, according to these numbers,
699
00:42:10.800 --> 00:42:13.639
we've spent X number of billions of dollars on their healthcare,
700
00:42:14.679 --> 00:42:18.559
not their health insurance, their health care. So explain that one,
701
00:42:19.519 --> 00:42:21.360
but they don't do it because the media is bought
702
00:42:21.440 --> 00:42:24.039
right into the loony left as well. All right, we
703
00:42:24.039 --> 00:42:25.519
got to take a break for our top of the hour.
704
00:42:25.599 --> 00:42:27.119
We'll be right back just a minute. This is the
705
00:42:27.119 --> 00:42:29.800
Brian Rush Show and you're listening to Florida Man Radio Network.
706
00:42:36.840 --> 00:42:39.960
Brian most name. You know the brand.
707
00:42:42.719 --> 00:42:50.000
Line up, the always in this one, melting snowface. We're
708
00:42:50.079 --> 00:42:52.880
the fiery head talking truth.
709
00:42:53.000 --> 00:42:54.199
You can't always.
710
00:42:53.840 --> 00:43:04.639
Stand fast to show from coast to coast, got the facts,
711
00:43:04.679 --> 00:43:07.599
but it ain't No boast can't give up the change
712
00:43:07.639 --> 00:43:10.440
and give him a toast to the man who roast
713
00:43:10.519 --> 00:43:11.039
the mots.
714
00:43:11.239 --> 00:43:15.599
Knock it off, it's rust on me, hurting rylack care
715
00:43:15.800 --> 00:43:16.800
of scenes?
716
00:43:17.079 --> 00:43:21.480
Did you mind on Jefrey Fray in the tops and
717
00:43:21.800 --> 00:43:26.440
Silver Street?
718
00:43:29.719 --> 00:43:32.199
Those first words that sparked the plan.
719
00:43:33.199 --> 00:43:38.079
Nothing never stays the same, breaking down laws of shame,
720
00:43:39.079 --> 00:43:43.360
Ryan Rust is here a claim voices rise of Finian
721
00:43:43.559 --> 00:43:49.159
sort through the censor to the court. Allosicians keep the
722
00:43:49.360 --> 00:43:51.880
score for Brian's babbling in this war.
723
00:43:52.199 --> 00:43:54.199
Knock it off, it's rust.
724
00:43:53.960 --> 00:43:58.800
On me, burning ryle like carera scenes. Did your mind
725
00:43:58.880 --> 00:44:03.679
on je Free in the sacial Silver Street?
726
00:44:12.320 --> 00:44:14.519
All right, welcome back to out number two of the show.
727
00:44:14.599 --> 00:44:16.039
It is a Red Friday, brought to you by our
728
00:44:16.039 --> 00:44:18.039
friends at America, Charlie Grill and Tavern. And when we
729
00:44:18.119 --> 00:44:21.719
remember everyone deployed, including our ICE agents that are out
730
00:44:21.960 --> 00:44:25.039
deployed around the country trying to make this country a
731
00:44:25.159 --> 00:44:30.639
safer place. And can I just say what Riley Gaines
732
00:44:31.000 --> 00:44:35.719
last night gave birth to a baby girl. First off,
733
00:44:35.800 --> 00:44:38.280
I had no idea that Riley Gaines was even pregnant.
734
00:44:39.199 --> 00:44:42.840
But aside from that, she posted a photo with her,
735
00:44:42.960 --> 00:44:47.280
her the hubby and their their brand new daughter. Can
736
00:44:47.360 --> 00:44:53.599
I just say for somebody who just gave birth last night? Durnam,
737
00:44:54.480 --> 00:44:58.920
I mean, I'm ladies, I know you might not want
738
00:44:58.920 --> 00:45:03.079
to hear this because I know that you know pregnancy.
739
00:45:03.559 --> 00:45:06.119
It it does something to a woman's body and it
740
00:45:06.199 --> 00:45:11.400
changes it all up. But Riley, that is it's not fair.
741
00:45:11.760 --> 00:45:15.840
It's not fair too well one men, uh and two
742
00:45:16.000 --> 00:45:20.920
women for you to look that good after giving birth.
743
00:45:21.519 --> 00:45:25.559
I'm just I'm I'm a little loss at words there.
744
00:45:25.880 --> 00:45:28.960
If you haven't seen the photo yet, she looks pretty good.
745
00:45:29.000 --> 00:45:30.800
And again I had no idea she was pregnant like
746
00:45:30.840 --> 00:45:32.840
I've been seeing her do all these things now. Idea,
747
00:45:33.800 --> 00:45:36.199
I guess that whole thing about working out and staying fit,
748
00:45:36.320 --> 00:45:39.960
actually there might be something to that, who dow. But anyhow,
749
00:45:40.239 --> 00:45:43.920
congratulations to Riley Gaines on the birth of her her
750
00:45:43.920 --> 00:45:47.039
brand new daughter. And and of course now she has
751
00:45:47.079 --> 00:45:51.239
even more of a a reason to fight for women's
752
00:45:51.360 --> 00:45:55.800
rights and for women in sports because now she's got
753
00:45:55.840 --> 00:46:01.039
a daughter to fight for. Right there, sot her congratulations.
754
00:46:01.039 --> 00:46:04.159
By the way, today is also a Puffy sentencing. Sean
755
00:46:04.280 --> 00:46:08.199
Puffy Comb's puff Daddy is expected to be sentenced later
756
00:46:08.239 --> 00:46:11.840
on today. We'll see what he gets, see if it
757
00:46:11.840 --> 00:46:14.880
will be a slick sentence or not. If you get that,
758
00:46:15.000 --> 00:46:16.519
you get that, and if you do, you're sick and
759
00:46:16.559 --> 00:46:19.880
perverted just like me, and I appreciate that. So we'll
760
00:46:19.960 --> 00:46:22.519
wait for that news coming up later on today what
761
00:46:22.559 --> 00:46:25.400
he ends up getting for a sentencing and the the
762
00:46:25.480 --> 00:46:29.480
trolling continues with Donald Trump. Obviously. The one big thing
763
00:46:29.519 --> 00:46:33.039
that's out there right now are the memes with with
764
00:46:33.119 --> 00:46:39.280
the Keem Jefferies and Chuck you Schumer, which is absolutely hilarious,
765
00:46:39.880 --> 00:46:42.039
But the White House has decided to step it up
766
00:46:42.079 --> 00:46:44.760
a little bit now. One of the controversies that has
767
00:46:44.800 --> 00:46:48.599
come about is the the halftime show that is coming
768
00:46:48.679 --> 00:46:51.840
up for the Super Bowl with Bad Bunny. Bad Bunny
769
00:46:51.880 --> 00:46:54.920
is going to be doing the Super Bowl show, which one,
770
00:46:55.239 --> 00:46:58.320
he doesn't speak English. If he does, he doesn't sing
771
00:46:58.360 --> 00:47:03.880
anything in English. Everything is Spanish. The number of Hispanics,
772
00:47:03.880 --> 00:47:07.440
the percentage of Hispanics that actually watched the Super Bowl
773
00:47:07.840 --> 00:47:13.000
versus everybody else extremely low. On top of that, Bad
774
00:47:13.039 --> 00:47:17.719
Bunny is a anti Donald Trump, anti Ice, and illegal
775
00:47:18.239 --> 00:47:23.920
immigration enforcement person, so he's not exactly somebody that the
776
00:47:24.000 --> 00:47:28.800
majority of the football watching audience is going to want
777
00:47:28.800 --> 00:47:33.239
to tune in to see. The White House has decided
778
00:47:33.280 --> 00:47:36.280
to troll a little bit more. The White House announced
779
00:47:36.360 --> 00:47:39.079
that there's going to be Ice agents that will be
780
00:47:39.239 --> 00:47:45.440
present during the Super Bowl for the Bad Bunny performance,
781
00:47:46.039 --> 00:47:50.199
which I think is absolutely hilarious. Bad Bunny even said
782
00:47:50.639 --> 00:47:53.840
that he is not going to perform anywhere in the country,
783
00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:56.639
and the reason why he didn't want to perform anywhere
784
00:47:56.639 --> 00:47:58.599
in the country is that he is afraid that his
785
00:47:58.760 --> 00:48:04.480
fan base is gonna get locked up by Ice, so
786
00:48:04.559 --> 00:48:06.440
he's not going to do it. And now the fact
787
00:48:06.519 --> 00:48:10.239
that Ice is going to be there at the performance
788
00:48:11.119 --> 00:48:15.639
is hilarious. Shoes right, he's a trainning. I are we
789
00:48:15.679 --> 00:48:17.039
allowed to use that word tranning?
790
00:48:17.519 --> 00:48:17.719
Is that?
791
00:48:17.840 --> 00:48:19.480
Is that politically correct? I don't even know what the
792
00:48:19.519 --> 00:48:21.159
hell he is, to be honest with you, I think
793
00:48:21.159 --> 00:48:25.320
he's just I don't think he's a transgender or tranny
794
00:48:25.440 --> 00:48:28.039
like the the the gen xers we like to call it,
795
00:48:28.039 --> 00:48:30.599
because that's what it was. Let's let's just be what
796
00:48:30.679 --> 00:48:33.320
it was. It's a tranny. I can't believe you'd say
797
00:48:33.320 --> 00:48:36.079
those where there's so offensive, good sit down and cry.
798
00:48:37.320 --> 00:48:42.719
But he's just a typical Hollywood entertaining freak is a
799
00:48:42.719 --> 00:48:45.679
freak show. And I think a lot of it is
800
00:48:45.719 --> 00:48:48.360
that that whole attention getting thing. I'm gonna show up
801
00:48:48.400 --> 00:48:50.840
to an award show or to some ceremony, you know,
802
00:48:50.960 --> 00:48:53.599
dressed in high heels and a skirt. It's like, wow,
803
00:48:53.639 --> 00:48:59.119
that's that's greater whatever. But again, the fact that ice
804
00:48:59.159 --> 00:49:00.880
agents are going to be present and at the super Bowl,
805
00:49:02.440 --> 00:49:05.039
I think it's hilarious and there'll be many ways that
806
00:49:05.079 --> 00:49:09.440
they can get away with it too. If Donald Trump decides, hey,
807
00:49:09.440 --> 00:49:12.840
I'm going to go to the super Bowl, then the
808
00:49:12.920 --> 00:49:16.960
Secret Service is going to take over security of the
809
00:49:17.360 --> 00:49:20.559
of the super Bowl. And when they do that. They
810
00:49:20.599 --> 00:49:24.320
do like to bring in other agencies for very large
811
00:49:24.360 --> 00:49:29.320
events to assist in the UH in the security details.
812
00:49:29.360 --> 00:49:33.440
And if you have a bunch of ICE agents that
813
00:49:33.599 --> 00:49:37.280
have to be scattered all around the super Bowl in
814
00:49:37.360 --> 00:49:40.559
places where the camera could be there and they've got
815
00:49:40.599 --> 00:49:45.320
to have I'm getting too much joy out of that,
816
00:49:45.519 --> 00:49:48.280
I really am. I'm like, in the back of my head,
817
00:49:48.320 --> 00:49:53.119
I've got the wheels rolling saying that, seeing how how
818
00:49:53.119 --> 00:49:54.920
that's going to impact him and whether or not he'll
819
00:49:54.960 --> 00:49:59.480
be Like if ICE agents were stationed at the the
820
00:49:59.480 --> 00:50:02.480
the en stands for where he would have to come in,
821
00:50:03.239 --> 00:50:05.119
if ICE agents were the ones that had to like
822
00:50:05.360 --> 00:50:08.639
escort him around, that would be hilarious. It would absolutely
823
00:50:08.719 --> 00:50:12.960
be hilarious. Uh to see happen. I can't wait. I
824
00:50:13.280 --> 00:50:16.000
might watch the Super Bowl, uh, just to see what
825
00:50:16.079 --> 00:50:20.400
happens with that. So we'll see. So the with the
826
00:50:20.519 --> 00:50:24.639
continuing resolution that is going down which has now shut
827
00:50:24.679 --> 00:50:27.239
down the government. Uh, this is again one of the
828
00:50:27.280 --> 00:50:31.199
things that that Chuck Chuck you Schumer has has not
829
00:50:31.360 --> 00:50:34.840
calculated into. And I don't think Keem Jeffries did either
830
00:50:35.760 --> 00:50:37.760
the steps that now Donald Trump is able to do.
831
00:50:38.599 --> 00:50:40.840
And of course we are. We are hearing over and
832
00:50:40.880 --> 00:50:45.760
over again about how the Republicans are not stepping up
833
00:50:45.800 --> 00:50:49.519
to the plate to negotiate, and and they just walked
834
00:50:49.519 --> 00:50:52.400
away from everything. It's like, no, they'd been trying to
835
00:50:52.440 --> 00:50:55.360
get this done for a while because remember despite the
836
00:50:55.360 --> 00:50:58.400
fact that the the the House should have been working
837
00:50:58.440 --> 00:51:02.800
on the actual budget for the past month, they have
838
00:51:02.920 --> 00:51:06.719
been working on the Continuing Resolution. So for the past
839
00:51:06.840 --> 00:51:10.039
month they've been working on the Continuing Resolution, trying to
840
00:51:10.039 --> 00:51:12.280
get the Democrats involved, and the Democrats come to the
841
00:51:12.280 --> 00:51:14.159
table say we might have spend one point five trillion,
842
00:51:14.199 --> 00:51:16.199
now there's more, and we want more healthcare for all
843
00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:21.880
the illegals. They've had the opportunity to do this. As
844
00:51:21.920 --> 00:51:27.199
Speaker Johnson had said, there's nothing to negotiate. It's something
845
00:51:27.239 --> 00:51:30.800
that this Continuing Resolution is something that had been passed
846
00:51:30.840 --> 00:51:39.599
thirteen times by Democrats. And now Donald Trump, who he
847
00:51:39.760 --> 00:51:44.400
says he didn't want the shutdown, but there's parts of
848
00:51:44.440 --> 00:51:46.719
me that go, I think in the back of his
849
00:51:46.840 --> 00:51:52.480
head he was kind of hoping for it. Because what
850
00:51:52.639 --> 00:51:55.400
ended up happening as soon as the shutdown goes in,
851
00:51:55.519 --> 00:51:58.440
the President and his team now gets to stemp up
852
00:51:58.440 --> 00:52:01.760
and go all right, figure out what is essential, what's
853
00:52:01.760 --> 00:52:04.519
not essential, who to lay off, what to close, what
854
00:52:04.599 --> 00:52:08.400
not to close. Let's go and now the President of
855
00:52:08.440 --> 00:52:11.039
the United States and his team gets to unilaterally make
856
00:52:11.079 --> 00:52:14.880
that decision. And at this point in time, and as
857
00:52:14.920 --> 00:52:18.599
Donald Trump even said it, he's like, look, will close
858
00:52:18.639 --> 00:52:22.639
programs and commissions and and you know, get rid of
859
00:52:22.920 --> 00:52:25.760
certain people. And we're just going to do it. And
860
00:52:25.800 --> 00:52:28.000
he posted on his true social that he would be
861
00:52:28.039 --> 00:52:32.559
meeting with is it vauked or vaunt vaut I? Hear
862
00:52:32.719 --> 00:52:35.840
his name pronounced like fifteen different ways. So Russ. He's
863
00:52:35.840 --> 00:52:39.000
going to be a meeting with Russ, the Budget Director,
864
00:52:40.519 --> 00:52:44.159
and they're going to be determining which of the as
865
00:52:44.199 --> 00:52:47.960
Donald Trump put to determine which of the many Democrat agencies,
866
00:52:48.480 --> 00:52:52.239
most of which are a political scam, he recommends to
867
00:52:52.320 --> 00:52:55.039
be cut, and whether or not those cuts will be
868
00:52:55.119 --> 00:53:00.480
temporary or permanent. And remember that's the catch right there,
869
00:53:00.920 --> 00:53:05.039
that now Donald Trump can make some permanent cuts that
870
00:53:05.239 --> 00:53:08.440
in order for them to be restored, they're going to
871
00:53:08.519 --> 00:53:10.639
have to go back to Congress. Then they're going to
872
00:53:10.719 --> 00:53:14.760
have to pass a bill to restore those things. And
873
00:53:14.880 --> 00:53:19.719
without the Republican's assistance, not going to happen. But Donald
874
00:53:19.719 --> 00:53:22.480
Trump went on to say that I can't believe the
875
00:53:22.599 --> 00:53:27.760
radical left Democrats gave me this unprecedented opportunity. They're not
876
00:53:27.960 --> 00:53:31.800
stupid people, so maybe this is their way of wanting
877
00:53:31.840 --> 00:53:38.599
to quietly and quickly make America great again. President DJ tamsprise.
878
00:53:38.639 --> 00:53:40.480
He didn't end that with thank you for your attention
879
00:53:40.559 --> 00:53:42.800
to this matter. But you know what, he's got a point.
880
00:53:44.320 --> 00:53:48.000
I mean, first off, he now has this unprecedented opportunity
881
00:53:48.199 --> 00:53:51.599
to do these cuts that could be permanent, shutting down
882
00:53:51.639 --> 00:53:55.960
program sutting down commissions, getting rid of employees, and trimming
883
00:53:56.000 --> 00:53:59.679
the fat in our federal government. And he can't believe
884
00:53:59.679 --> 00:54:02.440
that they gave him that opportunity. And to be honest
885
00:54:02.480 --> 00:54:05.519
with you, I don't think most of them knew they did.
886
00:54:06.519 --> 00:54:09.360
And I think that in the coming days, as Donald
887
00:54:09.400 --> 00:54:12.239
Trump starts going and cut this and cut that and
888
00:54:12.280 --> 00:54:16.920
cut this, that's when the radical left, the aocs will
889
00:54:16.960 --> 00:54:19.519
be like, oh my god, what's going on? Why is
890
00:54:19.599 --> 00:54:22.280
Donald Trump doing this? He shaidn't be able to. You mean,
891
00:54:22.440 --> 00:54:24.360
he can do it because we voted this shut down
892
00:54:24.400 --> 00:54:27.559
the government. Oh my god, like my office door was open,
893
00:54:27.559 --> 00:54:32.400
and why didn't these Republicans come negotiate with me. But
894
00:54:32.559 --> 00:54:35.960
maybe there is some truth to what Donald Trump said
895
00:54:35.960 --> 00:54:39.079
at the end of his statement that maybe this is
896
00:54:39.119 --> 00:54:42.960
their way of wanting to quietly and quickly make America
897
00:54:43.039 --> 00:54:46.280
great again, because again, not all the Democrats are stupid,
898
00:54:47.119 --> 00:54:50.719
but they also know that if they go down certain roads,
899
00:54:51.280 --> 00:54:54.480
then it could affect them when it comes to reelections
900
00:54:54.679 --> 00:54:58.960
and winning back the House. So if we come out
901
00:54:58.960 --> 00:55:03.199
and say we shut down the government or that we
902
00:55:03.360 --> 00:55:05.440
voted to shut down everything, but it's all because of
903
00:55:05.440 --> 00:55:07.960
Donald Trump, and it's his fault to Donald Trump bad.
904
00:55:08.679 --> 00:55:11.519
But in the background, they can sit there and go, whoo,
905
00:55:12.880 --> 00:55:14.599
it's not gonna be me getting the blame for shutting
906
00:55:14.599 --> 00:55:16.920
down that program that never should have existed to begin with,
907
00:55:17.000 --> 00:55:20.119
and said that program's gone like it needed to be,
908
00:55:20.679 --> 00:55:24.000
and Donald Trump gets the blame for it or credit,
909
00:55:24.039 --> 00:55:25.960
however side you want to look at it. So there
910
00:55:26.000 --> 00:55:30.039
may actually be some truth to that. But again, now
911
00:55:30.039 --> 00:55:33.000
Donald Trump has got the free will to go crazy.
912
00:55:34.119 --> 00:55:36.960
And of course that post that that Trump had made
913
00:55:37.000 --> 00:55:40.719
on truth Social comes as him and Russ are continuing
914
00:55:40.760 --> 00:55:44.440
to implement broad reductions in the federal bureaucracy, which is
915
00:55:44.480 --> 00:55:49.719
what we've wanted. We want that bureaucracy to be cut.
916
00:55:50.239 --> 00:55:54.400
And remember, if somebody is a non essential government employee,
917
00:55:55.079 --> 00:55:57.920
then that means they were not needed to begin with.
918
00:55:59.719 --> 00:56:02.239
Now how they define the non essential is going to
919
00:56:02.239 --> 00:56:04.079
be interesting, of course, they're going to be like, see,
920
00:56:04.159 --> 00:56:07.360
we have janitors that are being let go. Now a
921
00:56:07.440 --> 00:56:11.800
janitor should be essential. A janitor that is cleaning up
922
00:56:11.840 --> 00:56:16.199
the Capitol building and cleaning up the parks, and that's essential.
923
00:56:16.480 --> 00:56:17.320
Got to have somebody to.
924
00:56:17.239 --> 00:56:17.880
Clean this up.
925
00:56:18.000 --> 00:56:22.239
So an essential employee Now, the assistant of the assistant,
926
00:56:22.280 --> 00:56:24.400
of the assistant, and the intern of the intern of
927
00:56:24.400 --> 00:56:28.639
the assistant. Those are things that are non essential. There
928
00:56:28.679 --> 00:56:31.519
are departments in programs that are out there that are
929
00:56:31.559 --> 00:56:33.960
non essential, that are not needed in this country. So
930
00:56:34.000 --> 00:56:38.719
it should go. But russ He revealed earlier this week
931
00:56:39.000 --> 00:56:43.280
the cancelation of nearly eight billion dollars in the federal
932
00:56:43.320 --> 00:56:47.760
green energy products, which targeted blue and blue leaning states
933
00:56:47.800 --> 00:56:51.840
like California, Colorado, Illinois, New York, and a whole host
934
00:56:51.880 --> 00:56:54.039
of others, didn't go to any of the red states,
935
00:56:54.079 --> 00:56:57.519
all to the blue states, and the administration also confirmed
936
00:56:57.559 --> 00:57:02.199
that eighteen billion dollars in infrastrutructure projects in New York City,
937
00:57:02.239 --> 00:57:06.199
including the Hudson Tunnel project and the second Second Avenue Subway,
938
00:57:06.639 --> 00:57:12.199
would be placed on hold pending review of contracting practices. Now, remember,
939
00:57:12.440 --> 00:57:15.119
if there's anybody that understands how to do that, it's
940
00:57:15.239 --> 00:57:19.039
Donald Trump. You remember the man who said, hey, look
941
00:57:20.800 --> 00:57:23.719
looking outside of my window. Here there's that skating rink.
942
00:57:25.320 --> 00:57:26.480
You guys, can you finish?
943
00:57:26.559 --> 00:57:26.840
All right?
944
00:57:27.000 --> 00:57:29.119
Tell you what, I'm gonna finish it. I'm gonna finish
945
00:57:29.199 --> 00:57:31.239
it on time. I'm gonna finish it under budget. The
946
00:57:31.280 --> 00:57:33.679
thing that the city has been able to do city
947
00:57:33.800 --> 00:57:36.840
was like, all right, sure, Donald Trump turns around and boom,
948
00:57:36.840 --> 00:57:40.719
done under budget and ahead of schedule. So that if
949
00:57:40.760 --> 00:57:43.639
there's anybody that knows how to do that, it's the contractor.
950
00:57:44.920 --> 00:57:47.679
And we have seen so many of these quote unquote
951
00:57:47.719 --> 00:57:52.559
infrastructure projects where they have not done well. Look at
952
00:57:52.559 --> 00:57:54.920
the billions of dollars that have been spent for a
953
00:57:55.079 --> 00:57:58.199
mile of the high speed rail in California, something they've
954
00:57:58.239 --> 00:58:00.480
been working on for how long now, I mean, I
955
00:58:00.519 --> 00:58:03.760
don't even remember when they started that project. You also
956
00:58:03.800 --> 00:58:09.119
have the solar farm, the big solar farm that has
957
00:58:09.159 --> 00:58:11.519
been going down for what about ten years, and they
958
00:58:11.639 --> 00:58:14.880
just shut it down because they went, huh, look at that.
959
00:58:15.079 --> 00:58:18.639
It didn't work. It wasn't producing anywhere near the energy
960
00:58:18.639 --> 00:58:20.000
that we thought it was going to, and it was
961
00:58:20.039 --> 00:58:24.679
costing us billions of dollars. Sorry, we failed shut it down.
962
00:58:27.280 --> 00:58:29.519
When it comes to doing infrastructure in this country, By
963
00:58:29.559 --> 00:58:31.920
the way, this is something that just it annoys me,
964
00:58:31.960 --> 00:58:33.480
and I know it annoys a lot of you too,
965
00:58:33.760 --> 00:58:37.679
especially those that live here in Florida. Because I don't
966
00:58:37.719 --> 00:58:40.440
know who's in charge of infrastructure projects here in the
967
00:58:40.440 --> 00:58:42.960
state of Florida. I'm beginning to think that it might
968
00:58:43.000 --> 00:58:46.400
be a Democrat, I really am, because they can't get
969
00:58:46.440 --> 00:58:51.199
anything done. How long did it take for the in
970
00:58:51.239 --> 00:58:55.320
the Central Panhandle area here to do roads like Highway
971
00:58:55.360 --> 00:59:00.400
seventy seven. It had to have taken twenty year years
972
00:59:00.440 --> 00:59:03.760
easily to do that project. And I don't even think
973
00:59:03.760 --> 00:59:06.079
it's completely done yet. I think they stopped at a
974
00:59:06.119 --> 00:59:09.280
certain point. How long does it take to get these
975
00:59:09.320 --> 00:59:13.000
projects done? So, yeah, we need to work on infrastructure.
976
00:59:13.039 --> 00:59:16.079
We need to do the contracting practices a little bit better.
977
00:59:16.119 --> 00:59:18.800
We need to make sure that we're not spending absorbent
978
00:59:19.039 --> 00:59:22.719
amounts of money and things aren't getting done on time.
979
00:59:22.800 --> 00:59:25.639
So sure, the Hudson Tunnel project, in the Second Avenue subway,
980
00:59:26.119 --> 00:59:28.800
and all these other infrastructure projects, they need to be
981
00:59:28.920 --> 00:59:32.440
put on hold and reviewed. We need to start doing
982
00:59:32.440 --> 00:59:36.079
this in a smart, effective financial way. That's not going
983
00:59:36.159 --> 00:59:39.039
to be a problem. But Russ also played a pretty cool,
984
00:59:39.239 --> 00:59:44.320
pretty central role too in shaping the federal operations. In August,
985
00:59:45.000 --> 00:59:48.159
when it came to a whole bunch of other projects,
986
00:59:48.199 --> 00:59:50.559
Marco Rubio, by the way, pointed him to oversee the
987
00:59:50.639 --> 00:59:54.440
close out of the US Agency for International Development, the USAID,
988
00:59:55.840 --> 01:00:01.239
following Congress's approval of the nine billion dollars recession package
989
01:00:01.320 --> 01:00:05.360
that eliminated funding for the USAID and PBS and everybody else.
990
01:00:06.280 --> 01:00:09.840
The trimming is happening, and the trimming right now is
991
01:00:09.880 --> 01:00:13.840
gonna be even more mouth watering than watching Dad stand
992
01:00:13.840 --> 01:00:17.800
there in front of the Thanksgiving turkey and carving into
993
01:00:17.840 --> 01:00:20.760
that and that first knife slice goes into that and
994
01:00:20.800 --> 01:00:23.079
you see that juiceese stares come off of that thing
995
01:00:23.119 --> 01:00:26.360
and your mouth starts to water. Oh, this is gonna
996
01:00:26.400 --> 01:00:28.480
be good. I'm gonna enjoy every second of this, and
997
01:00:28.480 --> 01:00:32.400
I'm also gonna enjoy the meltdowns from the left. Donald
998
01:00:32.480 --> 01:00:34.719
Chump is a bad guy, and he's taking away all
999
01:00:34.760 --> 01:00:38.360
of our infrastructure projects, and he's shutting down the healthcare
1000
01:00:38.440 --> 01:00:42.000
and oh this is the worst. Now, Actually, what this is,
1001
01:00:42.480 --> 01:00:45.119
this is what we wanted. It's a Red Friday, brought
1002
01:00:45.119 --> 01:00:47.719
to you by our friends at American Charlie Grill and Tavern,
1003
01:00:47.760 --> 01:00:51.159
where we were remembering everyone deployed. And again that includes
1004
01:00:51.199 --> 01:00:52.800
all of our ICE agents that are out in the
1005
01:00:52.800 --> 01:00:55.519
front line right now dealing with so much of the
1006
01:00:55.920 --> 01:00:58.639
horribleness from the left. We remember you guys, and we
1007
01:00:58.719 --> 01:01:01.079
thank you guys for getting out there and doing your thing.
1008
01:01:01.119 --> 01:01:03.159
And of course to all of our military that is
1009
01:01:03.199 --> 01:01:06.079
deployed around the country and around the world. That's what
1010
01:01:06.119 --> 01:01:08.079
a Red Friday is all about. And again sponsored by
1011
01:01:08.079 --> 01:01:21.719
our friends at American Charlie. We'll be right back, all right,
1012
01:01:21.880 --> 01:01:23.920

01:01:47.599 --> 01:01:52.280
Was nice to also finally be back in the in
1022
01:01:52.360 --> 01:01:56.280
the studio, back in the Nagodov studio, which which we
1023
01:01:56.360 --> 01:02:06.079
have completely missed the studio. Hang on a second guests
1024
01:02:06.079 --> 01:02:07.599
coming up this morning on the show. By the way,
1025
01:02:08.159 --> 01:02:10.880
we do have at the top of the hour, h
1026
01:02:10.960 --> 01:02:13.559
Linda Cope from the Warrior Beach Retreat is gonna be on.
1027
01:02:13.559 --> 01:02:16.800
We're gonna chat with her about the upcoming event that's
1028
01:02:16.840 --> 01:02:22.119
going on. Also, we have the the Doster Boys that
1029
01:02:22.199 --> 01:02:25.000
will be joining us coming up later on this morning
1030
01:02:25.280 --> 01:02:28.440
as well in the next hour of the show, where
1031
01:02:28.440 --> 01:02:30.760
we'll talk about a whole bunch of Florida things and
1032
01:02:30.760 --> 01:02:32.280
and get some of their thoughts and opinions on the
1033
01:02:32.280 --> 01:02:35.920
shutdown as well. So what else we got to talk about.
1034
01:02:36.519 --> 01:02:38.880
I'm sorry, I'm just I'm a little giddy today for
1035
01:02:38.920 --> 01:02:46.119
some reason. Oh, Donald Trump's unhinged. Donald Trump's absolute unhinged.
1036
01:02:46.159 --> 01:02:48.239
You don't you don't understand how bad it is. And
1037
01:02:48.239 --> 01:02:50.920
and we've got to go to Madeleine Dean. I know who.
1038
01:02:51.920 --> 01:02:58.400
Madeleine Dean is a Democrat congresswoman from from Pennsylvania, which
1039
01:02:58.559 --> 01:03:03.320
if you're a Democrat right now in Pennsylvania, you are
1040
01:03:03.440 --> 01:03:07.800
probably not thinking that you have a great future in
1041
01:03:08.880 --> 01:03:15.119
politics because Pennsylvania, the amount of people that are switching
1042
01:03:15.159 --> 01:03:18.719
over to the Republican Party and what Scott Presler, by
1043
01:03:18.719 --> 01:03:20.719
the way, I got a total hats off to him.
1044
01:03:21.239 --> 01:03:23.960
What Scott Presler is doing in the state of Pennsylvania
1045
01:03:24.000 --> 01:03:28.679
with getting the registration push out and getting out there
1046
01:03:28.679 --> 01:03:30.880
and getting people to switch over to the Republican Party
1047
01:03:30.880 --> 01:03:33.039
has been amazing. And the thing that I love about
1048
01:03:33.079 --> 01:03:38.679
it with Scott is he is pretty much the opposite
1049
01:03:38.760 --> 01:03:43.000
of what the left would like when it comes to
1050
01:03:44.440 --> 01:03:51.719
an operative on the Republican side. First off, he's gay.
1051
01:03:54.039 --> 01:03:56.199
That right there that throws the Democrats off. They're like,
1052
01:03:56.239 --> 01:04:00.480
oh my god, why is there a gay guy helping Theublicans.
1053
01:04:00.480 --> 01:04:04.480
Doesn't he understand the Republicans don't like him. No, we
1054
01:04:04.519 --> 01:04:06.920
have no problem with it. And on top of that,
1055
01:04:06.960 --> 01:04:09.559
he is young and he's got the long hair thing going,
1056
01:04:10.119 --> 01:04:12.760
not like you know, pretty boy here, but just like
1057
01:04:13.360 --> 01:04:16.039
rock band kind of long hair. But the kid has
1058
01:04:16.079 --> 01:04:19.280
done an amazing job at getting that message out. And
1059
01:04:19.280 --> 01:04:21.039
this is one of these things where I look at
1060
01:04:21.039 --> 01:04:26.039
it and I say, hey, RNC, will you will you
1061
01:04:26.119 --> 01:04:28.320
take a look at these young people that are helping
1062
01:04:28.320 --> 01:04:31.840
out the Republican Party. What are you doing to help them?
1063
01:04:31.880 --> 01:04:34.960
What are you doing to understand what's going on here? Well, ye, see,
1064
01:04:34.960 --> 01:04:37.840
the book says that we have to on this point
1065
01:04:37.880 --> 01:04:40.599
in the time, we have to turn to page number
1066
01:04:40.679 --> 01:04:44.239
fifty three, and we have these procedures we have to follow. No,
1067
01:04:44.360 --> 01:04:47.519
you don't think outside the box, and that's exactly what's
1068
01:04:47.559 --> 01:04:51.519
going on. So again, oh Squirrel, props to him, to
1069
01:04:52.639 --> 01:04:55.159
Scott Presler for the amazing work that he's doing. He
1070
01:04:55.239 --> 01:04:59.000
really is, and they're attacking him. They are attacking him
1071
01:04:59.039 --> 01:05:03.119
like you wouldn't Belie leave from the Left, which I
1072
01:05:03.119 --> 01:05:06.199
find hilarious because I didn't think you were supposed to
1073
01:05:07.199 --> 01:05:09.840
attack young gay people like that. But I guess if
1074
01:05:09.840 --> 01:05:13.440
you're a Republican it doesn't really matter. But back to
1075
01:05:13.480 --> 01:05:18.079
Madeline Dean. Madeline was on Anderson Cooper three point sixty
1076
01:05:18.119 --> 01:05:20.679
And again I know you're saying who, because nobody really
1077
01:05:20.719 --> 01:05:24.000
cares about Madeline Dean, But this is again an example
1078
01:05:24.039 --> 01:05:27.760
of the left. They were having a discussion about with
1079
01:05:27.880 --> 01:05:31.400
Speaker Johnson, and Dean had said that I have told
1080
01:05:31.440 --> 01:05:34.280
him how deeply concerned I am that the president is
1081
01:05:34.400 --> 01:05:38.519
unhinged and unwell and our allies are noticing it, and
1082
01:05:38.559 --> 01:05:42.000
they're looking elsewhere for support, and our enemies are enjoying
1083
01:05:42.039 --> 01:05:57.119
it and they're embolded by it. What where, where? Where?
1084
01:05:57.239 --> 01:06:00.639
Where is this? Madeline? Is is this a movie that
1085
01:06:00.639 --> 01:06:03.400
you're watching, You're reading a book somewhere, or are you
1086
01:06:03.440 --> 01:06:06.840
living in an alternate universe? Where where exactly is that?
1087
01:06:06.920 --> 01:06:07.159
Again?
1088
01:06:08.840 --> 01:06:11.000
Is it in your own fantasy world? Is this one
1089
01:06:11.000 --> 01:06:15.360
of the Democrat fantasy stories that they're sharing on Reddit
1090
01:06:15.480 --> 01:06:19.880
or something? Is that where you get this information from?
1091
01:06:19.920 --> 01:06:22.039
But John Berman, who was filling in for Anderson Cooper,
1092
01:06:22.039 --> 01:06:24.119
had said, you just called the president unwell again, what
1093
01:06:24.159 --> 01:06:27.400
do you mean by that? And I love this because
1094
01:06:27.400 --> 01:06:32.880
her response was, well, he's aging, aren't we all? Yeah,
1095
01:06:33.440 --> 01:06:38.960
we're all aging, some age differently than others. But she
1096
01:06:39.039 --> 01:06:40.719
goes on to say that I think we can very
1097
01:06:40.800 --> 01:06:43.519
much so notice that there's a different man than he
1098
01:06:43.679 --> 01:06:47.760
was in his first term. Yeah, he's four years older,
1099
01:06:48.599 --> 01:06:51.440
of course, he's a different man. He's also a different
1100
01:06:51.480 --> 01:06:55.119
man because he was somebody that was abused and took
1101
01:06:55.159 --> 01:06:58.599
so much crap that he changed as a man. He
1102
01:06:58.840 --> 01:07:02.719
changed as a because of the lessons that he had learned.
1103
01:07:03.199 --> 01:07:06.320
So yes, he's a very much so different man this
1104
01:07:06.400 --> 01:07:09.199
time around. And it would not have been so bad,
1105
01:07:09.280 --> 01:07:13.119
by the way, if Donald Trump was reelected. I don't
1106
01:07:13.159 --> 01:07:16.000
think that Donald Trump would be doing the stuff that
1107
01:07:16.039 --> 01:07:19.280
he is doing today if Donald Trump got reelected in
1108
01:07:19.519 --> 01:07:22.880
twenty twenty, I really don't. I think the absolute best
1109
01:07:22.920 --> 01:07:25.599
thing that happened to this country, And I know this
1110
01:07:25.639 --> 01:07:28.519
sounds hard to say, but I'm just saying anyhow, the
1111
01:07:28.559 --> 01:07:30.920
best thing that happened in this country was Donald Trump
1112
01:07:31.000 --> 01:07:34.639
lost the election in twenty twenty, hands down one of
1113
01:07:34.719 --> 01:07:38.599
the best things to happen, because one had gotten to
1114
01:07:38.679 --> 01:07:42.400
expose the Democrats for who they really truly are. We
1115
01:07:42.480 --> 01:07:45.639
saw four years of absolute chaos, and yes, those four
1116
01:07:45.719 --> 01:07:48.639
years sucked for us, but it also made us realize,
1117
01:07:48.679 --> 01:07:52.039
and it made Donald Trump realize how good we actually
1118
01:07:52.039 --> 01:07:55.159
had it under Trump and what the Democrats are really
1119
01:07:55.199 --> 01:07:58.320
truly doing, and what the deep state and the bureaucracy
1120
01:07:58.360 --> 01:08:00.320
and all this other stuff the problem that they are.
1121
01:08:00.639 --> 01:08:03.760
So Donald Trump woke up to it more. He had
1122
01:08:03.800 --> 01:08:06.800
a new mission. We woke up to it because of
1123
01:08:06.840 --> 01:08:10.880
the suffering that we had to do, and even Democrats
1124
01:08:10.920 --> 01:08:13.639
woke up to the suffering as well. So when Donald
1125
01:08:13.679 --> 01:08:17.279
Trump came around, it all changed. All right, we got
1126
01:08:17.319 --> 01:08:18.960
to take a quick break. We'll be right back. This
1127
01:08:19.000 --> 01:08:19.920
is the Brian Rush Show.
1128
01:08:20.039 --> 01:08:36.399
Good morning, making liberals cry, one happy show at a time.
1129
01:08:36.880 --> 01:08:41.119
This is the Brian Rust Show. All right, welcome back
1130
01:08:41.119 --> 01:08:42.840
to the show. Thank you so much for waking up
1131
01:08:42.880 --> 01:08:45.640
with us today. We went late on that break. My bad,
1132
01:08:46.439 --> 01:08:50.880
That's okay, it's all good. By the way, talking about Pennsylvania,
1133
01:08:50.920 --> 01:08:54.600
there's so much about Pennsylvania too that that is that's
1134
01:08:54.600 --> 01:08:57.000
got to be freaking out the Democrats. It really does,
1135
01:08:57.119 --> 01:09:00.319
because the effort that is being put in and by
1136
01:09:00.319 --> 01:09:04.319
the way, not by the Republican Party, but by people
1137
01:09:04.399 --> 01:09:07.960
who want to make America better and starting off with
1138
01:09:08.000 --> 01:09:11.399
Pennsylvania because that is his home state. When we're talking
1139
01:09:11.399 --> 01:09:13.880
about Scott Presler and all the things that he's done,
1140
01:09:14.039 --> 01:09:18.279
it's amazing and it should be an example of what
1141
01:09:18.319 --> 01:09:20.439
other states need to be doing and what other people
1142
01:09:20.520 --> 01:09:23.000
need to be doing. We need to be taking the
1143
01:09:23.039 --> 01:09:29.239
reins because look, I don't trust the Republican Party, the
1144
01:09:29.560 --> 01:09:32.920
National Committee, the RNC to do what is necessary to
1145
01:09:33.000 --> 01:09:35.920
do to win. I really don't. We have to get
1146
01:09:35.960 --> 01:09:38.640
out there and we have got to do more to
1147
01:09:38.720 --> 01:09:42.199
spread the message and get that out. That's what we
1148
01:09:42.279 --> 01:09:45.359
need to do. And seeing him doing that, that is awesome.
1149
01:09:45.359 --> 01:09:47.840
And I know that we also have a lot of
1150
01:09:47.880 --> 01:09:50.920
people that listen to this show, watch this show, download
1151
01:09:50.960 --> 01:09:54.439
the podcast. In Pennsylvania. It's one of our top states
1152
01:09:54.439 --> 01:09:57.359
that we have often that is watching the show. And
1153
01:09:57.439 --> 01:10:00.760
we are still trying to figure out a good time
1154
01:10:00.800 --> 01:10:04.279
to go up and do a visit to Pennsylvania, do
1155
01:10:04.319 --> 01:10:06.680
a weekend visit. I'm not sure when we're going to
1156
01:10:06.760 --> 01:10:10.279
do it, working on it. I mean, I just with
1157
01:10:10.319 --> 01:10:13.199
the week that I just had, I just spend a
1158
01:10:13.239 --> 01:10:15.279
lot of money on on on time away, which by
1159
01:10:15.279 --> 01:10:17.520
the way, I did not go to Disney at all. Well,
1160
01:10:17.760 --> 01:10:19.359
I can't say I didn't go to Disney. I did
1161
01:10:19.359 --> 01:10:21.800
go to Disney Springs, but I almost don't count that.
1162
01:10:23.119 --> 01:10:26.920
But I didn't do the Disney thing, even though the
1163
01:10:27.039 --> 01:10:31.039
last day that I was in Orlando was when the
1164
01:10:32.479 --> 01:10:36.439
when the food, wine and food thing started at Epcot.
1165
01:10:36.880 --> 01:10:38.880
Has anybody ever been to that. I've been dying to
1166
01:10:38.920 --> 01:10:42.439
go to that, but fat boy Happy, I realized it
1167
01:10:42.479 --> 01:10:45.800
would probably have been a bad idea because immediately following
1168
01:10:45.840 --> 01:10:47.359
my vacation, I had to go to the Mayo Clinic,
1169
01:10:47.880 --> 01:10:51.800
and if I spent all that day eating at the
1170
01:10:51.880 --> 01:10:56.399
wine and food festival, I probably would have weighed about
1171
01:10:56.399 --> 01:10:58.359
three hundred pounds when I got to the Mayo Clinic
1172
01:10:58.399 --> 01:11:02.359
on Tuesday. So I ruled that out, but instead I
1173
01:11:02.399 --> 01:11:05.600
did end up I didn't actually play any golf golf.
1174
01:11:05.960 --> 01:11:08.399
I went and played. It's not top golf, but it's
1175
01:11:08.399 --> 01:11:14.000
the other subsidiary of theirs that they've got, and that
1176
01:11:14.199 --> 01:11:17.840
sucked that I was not feeling good and I probably
1177
01:11:17.880 --> 01:11:20.279
shouldn't have done it anyway because I wasn't feeling good
1178
01:11:20.319 --> 01:11:23.119
and my body was sore. So I was like, you
1179
01:11:23.119 --> 01:11:24.800
know what, I got nothing else to do, Let's go
1180
01:11:24.840 --> 01:11:26.960
ahead and just let's go play. And I played and
1181
01:11:27.239 --> 01:11:30.840
kind of regretted it. I really did. Ended up playing
1182
01:11:30.840 --> 01:11:34.760
one of the virtual golf courses and played the worst
1183
01:11:35.039 --> 01:11:39.119
game that I've ever played since I have been playing golf.
1184
01:11:39.359 --> 01:11:43.960
I mean, it was, it was bad. So now I
1185
01:11:44.000 --> 01:11:45.239
think what I need to do is get a new
1186
01:11:45.239 --> 01:11:47.600
golf coach. Ever since I got my new golf clubs,
1187
01:11:47.880 --> 01:11:50.600
forget about it. It's like maybe I just need to
1188
01:11:50.640 --> 01:11:53.199
revert back to my old clubs, bring the old game
1189
01:11:53.279 --> 01:11:55.720
back or something. I don't know either way, coming off
1190
01:11:55.800 --> 01:11:59.600
the top of the hour, we do have the crew
1191
01:11:59.680 --> 01:12:01.640
Linda the Cope, and I'm sure that the rest of
1192
01:12:01.680 --> 01:12:03.119
the gang will also join us on the phone as
1193
01:12:03.119 --> 01:12:06.920
well from Warrior Beach Retreat. If you don't know what
1194
01:12:06.960 --> 01:12:10.039
the Warrior Beach Retreat is, we'll get into the details
1195
01:12:10.079 --> 01:12:12.119
of a bit a quickie on this. It's basically a
1196
01:12:13.840 --> 01:12:17.880
retreat for some of our wounded warriors and their caregivers
1197
01:12:17.920 --> 01:12:19.840
that we do here in Panama City Beach. It's been
1198
01:12:19.880 --> 01:12:24.439
going on now for the bottom Golf There's so many
1199
01:12:24.479 --> 01:12:28.600
things I'm gonna I'm gonna let that one go. But
1200
01:12:28.960 --> 01:12:31.039
it's an event that we've been doing here and on
1201
01:12:31.079 --> 01:12:35.159
Panama City Beach now for fourteen to fifteen years. It's
1202
01:12:35.159 --> 01:12:37.720
a great event for our wounded warriors that we have
1203
01:12:37.800 --> 01:12:40.399
out there. It's a local thing, it's not affiliated with
1204
01:12:40.439 --> 01:12:43.479
any of the big guys, so it's an amazing experience.
1205
01:12:43.560 --> 01:12:46.399
So we will be talking about that coming up at
1206
01:12:46.439 --> 01:12:48.239
the top of the hour of the meantime, we are
1207
01:12:48.239 --> 01:12:52.680
in date number three of the shutdown, and whether or
1208
01:12:52.680 --> 01:12:55.079
not we will see any relief on this, I don't know.
1209
01:12:56.039 --> 01:12:58.840
I'm willing to bet not. I'm willing to bet that
1210
01:12:59.479 --> 01:13:02.840
we probably won't see a recovery from the shutdown until
1211
01:13:03.359 --> 01:13:08.000
probably sometime next week. I think that's probably what we're
1212
01:13:08.000 --> 01:13:10.840
gonna see. But as we also see, you know, the
1213
01:13:11.159 --> 01:13:14.600
the Democrats coming out and calling out Donald Trump with
1214
01:13:14.720 --> 01:13:17.880
him being unhinged and everything else. Bernie Sanders now jumping
1215
01:13:17.920 --> 01:13:21.119
into this too, and he was on MSNBC's All in
1216
01:13:22.000 --> 01:13:26.439
Over last night, and when he was talking with Chris Hayes,
1217
01:13:26.520 --> 01:13:29.520
Chris said, you know, you've been You've been in You've
1218
01:13:29.520 --> 01:13:32.199
served in Congress, in the Senate, You've served through a
1219
01:13:32.279 --> 01:13:35.760
number of different administrations with different presidents. I've covered a
1220
01:13:35.840 --> 01:13:38.119
number of shutdowns. I've never seen a president during a
1221
01:13:38.119 --> 01:13:41.800
shutdown kind of gloating about the ability to punish people
1222
01:13:41.960 --> 01:13:44.319
or take stuff away from the people in the states
1223
01:13:44.680 --> 01:13:48.039
that didn't vote for him. Have you seen that before?
1224
01:13:49.399 --> 01:13:51.199
And of course, what he's referring to is the fact
1225
01:13:51.199 --> 01:13:53.439
that Donald Trump now looking at things and saying, look,
1226
01:13:54.119 --> 01:13:56.159
now we can do some cuts that need to be
1227
01:13:56.199 --> 01:14:00.079
done because we can't get it through Congress. Now, this
1228
01:13:59.920 --> 01:14:04.760
is not a and I love how they're framing this that, oh,
1229
01:14:05.039 --> 01:14:08.640
he's going to punish the people who didn't vote for him. Now,
1230
01:14:08.840 --> 01:14:11.720
the punishment, by the way, is when those of us
1231
01:14:11.760 --> 01:14:14.399
in red states, our tax dollars have to go to
1232
01:14:14.479 --> 01:14:20.119
something that is not effective in blue states. That's that's
1233
01:14:20.119 --> 01:14:24.079
a problem. We got an issue with that. But of
1234
01:14:24.079 --> 01:14:26.800
course Bernie Sanders comes back and he's like, oh, of
1235
01:14:26.840 --> 01:14:29.640
course I have you know, Chris, we're living in an
1236
01:14:29.760 --> 01:14:35.560
unprecedented dangerous moment, possibly the worst crisis in America since
1237
01:14:35.600 --> 01:14:43.199
a Civil war. Holy hell, are you? It's the worst
1238
01:14:43.279 --> 01:14:47.279
crisis in America since the Civil War, according to Bernie Sanders,
1239
01:14:47.279 --> 01:14:50.159
because of the fact that our government shut down because
1240
01:14:50.199 --> 01:14:54.000
the Republicans didn't want to spend an additional one point
1241
01:14:54.039 --> 01:14:58.399
five trillion dollars that we cannot afford, and also didn't
1242
01:14:58.399 --> 01:15:04.560
want to give money and healthcare expenses to illegals. So
1243
01:15:04.760 --> 01:15:08.760
because of that, according to Bernie Sanders, we are now
1244
01:15:08.840 --> 01:15:14.279
in the most unprecedentedly dangerous moment, possibly the worst crisis
1245
01:15:14.319 --> 01:15:19.600
in America since the Civil War. I would say this
1246
01:15:19.640 --> 01:15:22.439
little thing that happened back in the early nineteen hundred there.
1247
01:15:23.520 --> 01:15:28.079
What does that thing called the Great something? Oh yeah,
1248
01:15:28.119 --> 01:15:31.560
great Depression. I think that might have been worse, even
1249
01:15:31.560 --> 01:15:33.960
though the name had great in it. I think that
1250
01:15:34.119 --> 01:15:37.560
was a little bit worse, maybe more than just a
1251
01:15:37.560 --> 01:15:42.760
little bit, but definitely worse than the unprecedentally dangerous moment
1252
01:15:43.039 --> 01:15:46.119
that we are in right now here in America that
1253
01:15:46.159 --> 01:15:48.560
we are living in. But he went on to say
1254
01:15:48.560 --> 01:15:52.199
that you have a president who's acting unconstitutionally and illegally.
1255
01:15:52.479 --> 01:15:56.000
Guess what. These projects have been appropriated, They have been
1256
01:15:56.039 --> 01:15:59.520
signed by a president. It is legal to rescind them,
1257
01:16:00.079 --> 01:16:03.520
illegal to rescind them. And then basically to say, people
1258
01:16:03.520 --> 01:16:06.720
in Vermont, in New York and California, oh, you didn't
1259
01:16:06.760 --> 01:16:09.079
vote for Donald Trump, Well, we're going to take away
1260
01:16:09.119 --> 01:16:13.960
funding that was supposed to go to your state. Illegal, outrageous, unconstitutional.
1261
01:16:14.600 --> 01:16:16.159
And then he continues on saying that you got a
1262
01:16:16.199 --> 01:16:20.359
president who's acting in an unprecedented way, who is a
1263
01:16:20.640 --> 01:16:24.199
megalomaniac who wants more and more power for himself and
1264
01:16:24.359 --> 01:16:29.520
his oligarchy friends. I want everybody to understand that, and
1265
01:16:29.600 --> 01:16:32.479
you also to understand that if we can bankrupt this country.
1266
01:16:33.119 --> 01:16:36.800
There will be breadlines and soup lines for everybody. Nobody
1267
01:16:36.800 --> 01:16:39.960
will go hungry. It'll be amazing. I have been to
1268
01:16:40.119 --> 01:16:43.399
Soviet Russia where they had breadlines and it was delicious.
1269
01:16:43.800 --> 01:16:49.279
The bread was made every day and the soup was yummy. Bernie,
1270
01:16:49.319 --> 01:16:52.760
sit down and shut up. I mean seriously, because the
1271
01:16:52.840 --> 01:16:54.840
things that Donald Trump is going after, like the eight
1272
01:16:55.000 --> 01:17:03.760
billion dollars in green energy projects, green energy projects that
1273
01:17:03.840 --> 01:17:07.359
don't work. Let's look at the Gigantic project right now
1274
01:17:07.359 --> 01:17:10.760
where it was it in California, the big solar plant
1275
01:17:10.800 --> 01:17:12.640
that had that was out there. We've seen it in
1276
01:17:12.720 --> 01:17:15.159
movies too. It's the one of the the big towers
1277
01:17:15.159 --> 01:17:16.640
that are all up over the place. What was the
1278
01:17:16.680 --> 01:17:19.640
movie we've seen that in. I think it was in
1279
01:17:19.640 --> 01:17:22.600
one of the James Bond movies too. But there's there's
1280
01:17:22.640 --> 01:17:25.000
like these these towers that are up and it's surrounded
1281
01:17:25.000 --> 01:17:27.520
by solar panels and reflective things all over the ground,
1282
01:17:27.760 --> 01:17:29.640
and it was supposed to be a solar thing to
1283
01:17:29.760 --> 01:17:34.079
generate electricity. Well after billions of dollars that have been
1284
01:17:34.159 --> 01:17:37.359
dumped into this thing, it's not producing anything and it's
1285
01:17:37.399 --> 01:17:39.840
not working, and they just shut it down after a
1286
01:17:39.880 --> 01:17:43.560
decade of that. This is the type of stuff that
1287
01:17:43.760 --> 01:17:47.680
is part of that eight billion dollar green energy initiatives
1288
01:17:48.439 --> 01:17:54.720
that they shut down. They're not going after just the
1289
01:17:54.760 --> 01:17:58.279
regular people and things that affect everybody's everyday lives and
1290
01:17:58.319 --> 01:18:01.600
in these states, No, they're going after the things that
1291
01:18:01.680 --> 01:18:05.039
do not work in that are of fantasy, that are
1292
01:18:05.079 --> 01:18:09.439
spending billions of dollars of the American tax payer money. Now,
1293
01:18:09.479 --> 01:18:11.359
if we were able to Bernie, and I know you
1294
01:18:11.399 --> 01:18:15.000
don't understand this because it's complicated and its money, but
1295
01:18:15.159 --> 01:18:18.239
if we were able to not spend money on things
1296
01:18:18.279 --> 01:18:21.079
that are not effective, like solar farms out in the
1297
01:18:21.119 --> 01:18:25.000
middle of the desert that doesn't do anything, then that
1298
01:18:25.039 --> 01:18:28.119
means that we the people would be charged less in
1299
01:18:28.359 --> 01:18:31.880
taxes because you wouldn't need to spend so much. And
1300
01:18:31.920 --> 01:18:34.640
then if you were charging less in taxes, then that
1301
01:18:34.680 --> 01:18:38.600
means we the people of Vermont and New York in
1302
01:18:38.680 --> 01:18:42.119
California would have more money in their pockets to be
1303
01:18:42.159 --> 01:18:44.600
able to do the things that Oh ready for this one,
1304
01:18:44.680 --> 01:18:49.079
hang on, this is gonna hurt they want to do.
1305
01:18:51.800 --> 01:18:53.760
And I love it when you see things like the
1306
01:18:53.800 --> 01:18:58.199
politicians in places like Massachusetts where they get out there
1307
01:18:58.239 --> 01:19:01.760
and they keep spreading this, and I honestly don't know
1308
01:19:01.800 --> 01:19:04.000
where the poll was done. And I have seen this
1309
01:19:04.680 --> 01:19:06.760
several times. And I can tell you as somebody who
1310
01:19:06.800 --> 01:19:11.800
is number one from Massachusetts and two I have lived in. God,
1311
01:19:11.840 --> 01:19:16.520
how many states have I lived in? Now Here nine,
1312
01:19:17.159 --> 01:19:20.279
ten or eleven different states that I have lived in
1313
01:19:20.279 --> 01:19:23.319
in my adult life. And I can tell you right
1314
01:19:23.359 --> 01:19:28.000
now that as much as I love Massachusetts, beautiful state
1315
01:19:28.119 --> 01:19:31.000
really is at more than half the people suck there.
1316
01:19:32.520 --> 01:19:35.039
But when I live in other states where I am
1317
01:19:35.079 --> 01:19:39.399
not taxed to death like in Massachusetts, things are better.
1318
01:19:40.520 --> 01:19:43.880
Like I lived in Alabama, I lived in Mississippi and
1319
01:19:44.000 --> 01:19:46.479
things were okay. I moved to Florida didn't have to
1320
01:19:46.479 --> 01:19:48.039
pay any state income tax.
1321
01:19:48.479 --> 01:19:49.000
Huh.
1322
01:19:49.079 --> 01:19:51.239
Look at that. That's a lot more money in my pocket.
1323
01:19:52.000 --> 01:19:54.119
That's money that I can decide what I want to
1324
01:19:54.119 --> 01:19:58.159
do with it. That's fantastic. In Massachusetts, not only do
1325
01:19:58.239 --> 01:20:00.239
they have the income tax, but they we have the
1326
01:20:00.279 --> 01:20:02.760
tax on the income tax, the tax on taxing the
1327
01:20:02.760 --> 01:20:05.800
income tax, and then there's the tax of filing the tax,
1328
01:20:06.159 --> 01:20:07.960
and the tax for the paper that was filed on
1329
01:20:08.000 --> 01:20:10.319
the taxes. And then there was a tax for taxing
1330
01:20:10.359 --> 01:20:12.640
the taxes, and then there's a tax just because of
1331
01:20:12.680 --> 01:20:16.279
the fact that we taxed you. They call it Taxachusetts
1332
01:20:16.319 --> 01:20:19.119
for a reason. And when you start taking more and
1333
01:20:19.159 --> 01:20:21.479
more of the people's money away and not giving them
1334
01:20:21.479 --> 01:20:25.560
anything in return, I mean, come on, I don't want
1335
01:20:25.600 --> 01:20:29.359
bread and soup. I want to make the decisions for myself.
1336
01:20:30.000 --> 01:20:32.000
If I want to go get a steak, I want
1337
01:20:32.000 --> 01:20:34.039
to go get a steak. If I want to go
1338
01:20:34.199 --> 01:20:38.279
have you know, a nice bowl of soup, I'll go
1339
01:20:38.359 --> 01:20:40.880
have a bowl of soup. I don't want the government
1340
01:20:41.319 --> 01:20:43.760
forcing me into that position. And that's exactly what the
1341
01:20:43.800 --> 01:20:47.319
Democrats will end up doing. We're spending more and more
1342
01:20:47.359 --> 01:20:49.840
of our money we cannot afford, in addition to one
1343
01:20:49.880 --> 01:20:52.680
point five trillion dollars. As a matter of fact, we
1344
01:20:52.720 --> 01:20:56.039
should be cutting one point five trillion dollars out of
1345
01:20:56.079 --> 01:20:58.239
our budget so that we can start paying some of
1346
01:20:58.279 --> 01:21:01.439
our debt. But the Democrats don't get it, and neither
1347
01:21:01.479 --> 01:21:05.680
does Bernie. But you have to understand. The bread, it's delicious,
1348
01:21:05.840 --> 01:21:08.079
it was made last night, doesn't have a lot of
1349
01:21:08.159 --> 01:21:10.479
ingredients in it because we can't afford it. But you
1350
01:21:10.560 --> 01:21:15.840
get it for free, and we have to stop the oligarchies.
1351
01:21:16.640 --> 01:21:20.720
To stop the oligarchies. Uh. Speaking of which, by the way,
1352
01:21:20.720 --> 01:21:23.520
can anybody point them out in the Republican Party right now?
1353
01:21:24.800 --> 01:21:30.159
Can anybody point out the Donald Trump Republican oligarchies who
1354
01:21:30.199 --> 01:21:35.000
are becoming wealthier right now? Anybody do it? Because yes,
1355
01:21:35.479 --> 01:21:39.720
we do have people like Scott Bessett, who's running the Treasury,
1356
01:21:40.239 --> 01:21:45.159
very wealthy man. We have several other very wealthy individuals
1357
01:21:45.359 --> 01:21:49.279
that are in Donald Trump's cabinet, all of which have
1358
01:21:49.560 --> 01:21:54.319
left their multimillion dollar jobs for a job that pays
1359
01:21:54.319 --> 01:21:57.359
a couple hundred thousand dollars a year and you have
1360
01:21:57.439 --> 01:22:00.520
to be attacked in public and it's stressful and the
1361
01:22:00.560 --> 01:22:05.560
whole nine yards, and they're the problem. Isn't it kind
1362
01:22:05.600 --> 01:22:10.760
of odd? How as Donald Trump and his administration dig
1363
01:22:10.880 --> 01:22:14.279
into all of the waste and fraud and abuse that happened,
1364
01:22:14.279 --> 01:22:18.039
and we shut down programs like the USAID that was
1365
01:22:18.079 --> 01:22:23.479
spending hundreds of billions of dollars on things, and all
1366
01:22:23.520 --> 01:22:26.840
of a sudden, there are Democrats that are that are
1367
01:22:26.880 --> 01:22:30.680
complaining that they're losing their money, and Democrats that are
1368
01:22:30.720 --> 01:22:33.279
not becoming as wealthy as they once were.
1369
01:22:33.279 --> 01:22:33.640
I want to.
1370
01:22:34.479 --> 01:22:37.079
And it's also kind of amazing too that with all
1371
01:22:37.119 --> 01:22:39.520
of these programs that are going on where there are
1372
01:22:39.600 --> 01:22:43.319
people that are being paid enormous amounts of money through
1373
01:22:43.640 --> 01:22:47.840
projects like the USAID, and about seventy something percent of
1374
01:22:47.880 --> 01:22:55.159
the wealth in America is belonging to the Democrats. So
1375
01:22:55.760 --> 01:22:58.199
if you want to start talking about the oligarchies, let's
1376
01:22:58.239 --> 01:23:03.119
talk about the Democrat all archies who have benefited from
1377
01:23:03.239 --> 01:23:07.000
all of these programs that have spent billions and billions
1378
01:23:07.039 --> 01:23:11.239
of dollars. Let's think about all of the Democrats that
1379
01:23:11.319 --> 01:23:16.960
got very wealthy during COVID. So Bernie, save it with
1380
01:23:17.000 --> 01:23:22.279
the oligarchy thing. By the way, another person who mysteriously
1381
01:23:23.319 --> 01:23:26.439
became very wealthy at one hundred and seventy four thousand
1382
01:23:26.479 --> 01:23:29.560
dollars a year, Well, you have to understand, I wrote
1383
01:23:29.600 --> 01:23:33.039
a book, and I wrote a book and bought multiple
1384
01:23:33.039 --> 01:23:37.680
houses and cars. It's my money, leave it alone. Okay,
1385
01:23:38.600 --> 01:23:42.159
then it's our money. Leave our damn money alone. It's
1386
01:23:42.199 --> 01:23:43.760
a Red Friday brought to you by our friends over
1387
01:23:43.760 --> 01:23:46.239
at American Charlie Grill and Taverna, where we remember everyone
1388
01:23:46.239 --> 01:23:48.920
deployed on a Red Friday, and of course that includes
1389
01:23:49.000 --> 01:23:51.279
our members, the men and women, the brave men and
1390
01:23:51.319 --> 01:23:54.039
women of our ice who was out there defending our nation.
1391
01:23:54.119 --> 01:23:56.720
We thank you for what you're doing. Keep it up
1392
01:23:56.840 --> 01:23:58.520
because we've got your back. We got to take a
1393
01:23:58.560 --> 01:24:13.760
quick break. We'll be right back out. That's right, all right,
1394
01:24:13.800 --> 01:24:16.439
Welcome back to the show. Good morning, and happy red Friday,
1395
01:24:16.479 --> 01:24:18.319
brought to you by our friends in American Charlie A
1396
01:24:18.319 --> 01:24:21.199
Grill and Tavern. We remember everyone deployed. Go check them
1397
01:24:21.239 --> 01:24:22.920
out this weekend for their new menu items, say, and
1398
01:24:22.960 --> 01:24:26.479
their new extended hours. And of course it's football and
1399
01:24:26.520 --> 01:24:28.439
they got plenty of screen streeting to watch the games
1400
01:24:28.520 --> 01:24:32.920
as well, So go check that out. Okay, okay, So
1401
01:24:33.039 --> 01:24:35.239
anybody here about the latest one with Harvard. I don't
1402
01:24:35.279 --> 01:24:39.560
know why these people cannot learn their lesson. I really can't.
1403
01:24:39.560 --> 01:24:44.760
Harvard University. Now, let's put some of this into context.
1404
01:24:44.880 --> 01:24:46.960
You think about Harvard University, what do you think about
1405
01:24:47.079 --> 01:24:51.199
You think about the elite, You think about the Fortune
1406
01:24:51.199 --> 01:24:55.079
five hundred companies with the CEOs of those companies. You
1407
01:24:55.119 --> 01:24:58.880
think about the top notch lawyers. You think about all
1408
01:24:58.880 --> 01:25:03.319
of the elite of our educated. Right, Harvard University now
1409
01:25:03.359 --> 01:25:11.039
has has hired a drag queen named Lahorevajistan, who is,
1410
01:25:11.079 --> 01:25:14.159
by the way, a visiting professor. So it's not like
1411
01:25:14.760 --> 01:25:16.439
they just went down the street and they saw a
1412
01:25:16.439 --> 01:25:18.399
show and they said, hey, you want to come do
1413
01:25:18.439 --> 01:25:21.720
a class. No, this is somebody who's actually a professor
1414
01:25:21.760 --> 01:25:26.279
at another university who's going to teach a course coming
1415
01:25:26.359 --> 01:25:29.479
up in this this spring semester, and they're going to
1416
01:25:29.520 --> 01:25:35.239
be teaching a course on the TV show RuPaul's Drag Race.
1417
01:25:38.239 --> 01:25:43.800
My only question is this, how the hell does that
1418
01:25:44.000 --> 01:25:49.159
apply to anything that a Harvard graduate would be moving
1419
01:25:49.199 --> 01:25:55.079
on to doing. Now let me let me let me
1420
01:25:55.159 --> 01:25:58.600
put it in this Okay, So, hey, welcome in for
1421
01:25:58.720 --> 01:26:02.199
the interview. I have a seat. Okay, So Harvard grad. Awesome,
1422
01:26:02.239 --> 01:26:06.279
that's great. Let's see what are your business management's Oh
1423
01:26:07.119 --> 01:26:12.079
you took the Ruphaul Drag Show course. Oh you're going
1424
01:26:12.119 --> 01:26:15.239
to be you know what? Hey, excuse me a second,
1425
01:26:15.439 --> 01:26:17.960
cancel all the rest of the interviews. We found our
1426
01:26:18.039 --> 01:26:21.399
winner over here. No, no, no, you don't understand this
1427
01:26:21.439 --> 01:26:25.279
one took the Rupehaul Drag Show course. We got a winner.
1428
01:26:25.600 --> 01:26:27.840
Oh my god, this is amazing. When can you start?
1429
01:26:30.800 --> 01:26:31.279
That is.
1430
01:26:32.840 --> 01:26:36.840
Just as bad as these colleges which I believe Harvard's
1431
01:26:36.840 --> 01:26:47.680
also doing this one a course on Taylor Swift. The
1432
01:26:47.760 --> 01:26:51.199
Ivy League schools have turned into the poison type. You're right,
1433
01:26:51.319 --> 01:26:57.840
they have. It's the poison Ivy League schools. Now, I
1434
01:26:57.840 --> 01:27:05.680
can understand doing a class on the drag thing, on
1435
01:27:05.760 --> 01:27:10.399
the transgender thing, where you look into it and you know,
1436
01:27:10.560 --> 01:27:14.439
actually study that type of stuff. I totally get that,
1437
01:27:15.319 --> 01:27:17.920
because this way you could you could actually do a
1438
01:27:18.000 --> 01:27:23.479
course where you try to analyze the life of somebody
1439
01:27:23.560 --> 01:27:28.479
who has gone transgender, look into the medical aspect of it,
1440
01:27:28.560 --> 01:27:31.199
and there's so much that you could actually do. I
1441
01:27:31.199 --> 01:27:33.640
mean seriously, on a serious note, there's a lot that
1442
01:27:33.680 --> 01:27:35.880
you could actually do if you were to teach a
1443
01:27:36.000 --> 01:27:39.600
class on the transgender lifestyle. If you did it right.
1444
01:27:41.399 --> 01:27:43.439
When you when you go down and you analyze the
1445
01:27:43.720 --> 01:27:46.880
mental health, you analyze what people are doing and how
1446
01:27:46.920 --> 01:27:49.640
they're doing things to their body, what's affecting them, that
1447
01:27:49.680 --> 01:27:54.479
would make sense. But to teach a course on Rule
1448
01:27:54.600 --> 01:27:58.319
Paul's Drag Race, which is a TV show, it's a
1449
01:27:58.359 --> 01:28:03.680
reality ish to TV show, and Harvard is going to
1450
01:28:04.239 --> 01:28:08.680
have a visiting professor come in and do that. By
1451
01:28:08.680 --> 01:28:12.399
the way, the visiting professor is one from Tufts University,
1452
01:28:12.880 --> 01:28:17.600
where he taught theater, dance, and performance studies. And we'll
1453
01:28:17.640 --> 01:28:21.159
also be teaching a Studies of Gender and Sexuality program
1454
01:28:21.640 --> 01:28:26.479
thanks to the Harvard Gender and Sexuality Caucus. By the way,
1455
01:28:27.079 --> 01:28:29.359
there is a difference, and I'm gonna point this out,
1456
01:28:29.359 --> 01:28:34.239
there's a difference between a drag queen and transgender. A
1457
01:28:34.399 --> 01:28:38.119
drag queen is a regular dude who goes off and
1458
01:28:38.159 --> 01:28:41.800
gets dressed up like a woman. A transgender is somebody
1459
01:28:41.880 --> 01:28:44.760
that will transform their body to be the other way around.
1460
01:28:45.399 --> 01:28:48.920
This person is not a drag queen because he's got
1461
01:28:48.920 --> 01:28:51.600
a he's got a set of barrels on him that
1462
01:28:51.680 --> 01:28:55.960
are impressive. That is not something typically of a drag
1463
01:28:57.000 --> 01:28:59.399
And with that we'll be right back. Good morning.
1464
01:29:07.760 --> 01:29:10.920
Brian Russell's name, you know the brand.
1465
01:29:13.640 --> 01:29:20.359
Lining up the airways in this one, melting snow face
1466
01:29:20.720 --> 01:29:25.159
with a fiery head, talking truth. You can't always stand
1467
01:29:31.439 --> 01:29:35.640
fast show from coast to coast. Got the facts, but
1468
01:29:35.840 --> 01:29:38.600
it ain't no boast can't get up the change and
1469
01:29:38.760 --> 01:29:41.119
give it toast to the man who.
1470
01:29:41.079 --> 01:29:44.399
Roasts the most. Knock it off. It's rust on me
1471
01:29:45.119 --> 01:29:50.039
let in lack care of scenes. Did you mind, No, don't.
1472
01:29:49.600 --> 01:30:02.600
Free frame in the top show Silver Street.
1473
01:30:00.960 --> 01:30:03.199
So Florence, that's Stark the plane.
1474
01:30:04.119 --> 01:30:08.960
Nothing never stays the same, breaking down loads of shame.
1475
01:30:10.039 --> 01:30:14.000
Ryan Roust is here, claim boy says rise of Thing
1476
01:30:14.239 --> 01:30:19.960
and so throw the censor to the court. Alassians. Cheap
1477
01:30:20.039 --> 01:30:23.920
the score for Brian's battling in this war, knocking off
1478
01:30:23.920 --> 01:30:29.239
it rust on me, puny rylock chair Saints, did you
1479
01:30:29.399 --> 01:30:30.560
mind o Joe.
1480
01:30:30.560 --> 01:30:34.680
Free ring in the social Silver streams.
1481
01:30:43.119 --> 01:30:45.039
All right, welcome back to out number three of the show.
1482
01:30:45.159 --> 01:30:46.880
Good morning, and thanks so much for waking up with
1483
01:30:46.960 --> 01:30:49.000
us here on the Florida Man Radio Network and of
1484
01:30:49.000 --> 01:30:53.000
course also streaming line on Rumble and Wimkin and uh
1485
01:30:53.199 --> 01:30:55.760
want to welcome for the first time on the show
1486
01:30:55.840 --> 01:30:58.640
since we've been on Florida Man Radio. Been a longtime
1487
01:30:58.680 --> 01:31:02.039
guest of the show. But the Kope Clan, that's what
1488
01:31:02.039 --> 01:31:03.680
I'm going to call you guys because it's easier because
1489
01:31:03.680 --> 01:31:06.720
I know that there's multiple yew here. But you guys,
1490
01:31:07.319 --> 01:31:09.640
Linda and Philip and the rest of the game. You
1491
01:31:09.680 --> 01:31:12.319
guys are in charge of the Warrior Beach Retreat. You
1492
01:31:12.359 --> 01:31:16.560
founded that here in Panama City. And for those that
1493
01:31:16.600 --> 01:31:18.319
are listening on the network that I've never heard of
1494
01:31:18.319 --> 01:31:21.399
this because obviously you've been in an element of Panama
1495
01:31:21.439 --> 01:31:23.640
City for a long time. But we now have the
1496
01:31:23.680 --> 01:31:26.279
audience out in for Walton Beach and then the audience
1497
01:31:26.319 --> 01:31:31.399
out towards our east throughout Florida. Tell us what exactly
1498
01:31:31.520 --> 01:31:32.760
is the Warrior Beach Retreat.
1499
01:31:34.319 --> 01:31:36.880
Hello everyone, and Brian, thank you so much for having
1500
01:31:36.880 --> 01:31:39.439
me and my husband, John's still in bed on the show.
1501
01:31:39.560 --> 01:31:43.520
We appreciate it. We started this about sixteen years ago
1502
01:31:44.000 --> 01:31:48.479
after our son, Army Sergeant Joshua Cope lost both legs
1503
01:31:48.479 --> 01:31:52.119
above the knee and wounded his hands buying Ied Blast
1504
01:31:52.159 --> 01:31:56.760
and Baghdad, Iraq, and we saw how war affects the family.
1505
01:31:56.920 --> 01:31:59.800
You know, it's not just a veteran, but especially the caregiver.
1506
01:32:00.319 --> 01:32:03.479
So we began doing retreats twice a year for a
1507
01:32:03.520 --> 01:32:07.520
week for combat wounded warriors and their spouses or caregivers.
1508
01:32:07.760 --> 01:32:10.720
Sometimes we'll have a parent come with the veterans and
1509
01:32:10.760 --> 01:32:14.319
they come from all across the country and it's just
1510
01:32:14.359 --> 01:32:18.199
the time to reconnect, get away from in laws, outlaws, kids,
1511
01:32:18.279 --> 01:32:23.119
doctor's appointments, and just to heal. And we have now
1512
01:32:23.159 --> 01:32:26.039
we have eight couples that come from all across the
1513
01:32:26.079 --> 01:32:30.920
country and they literally heal each other because they could
1514
01:32:30.920 --> 01:32:35.760
talk and communicate with what they're going through because war
1515
01:32:35.920 --> 01:32:38.720
is hell as a mom with a son severely wounded,
1516
01:32:39.079 --> 01:32:42.680
and the ramifications are for a NiFe time. And we
1517
01:32:42.800 --> 01:32:46.000
also do smaller retreats twice a year. You come on
1518
01:32:46.039 --> 01:32:48.439
a big retreat once than a smaller retreat once to
1519
01:32:48.479 --> 01:32:52.960
continue to strengthen your marriage. And we're not affiliated, as
1520
01:32:52.960 --> 01:32:56.359
you know, Brian, with Wounded Warrior Project, not at all affiliated.
1521
01:32:56.600 --> 01:32:59.039
We are a local five O one C three charity
1522
01:32:59.439 --> 01:33:01.840
right here in Bay County.
1523
01:33:01.920 --> 01:33:04.920
Yeah. Yeah, And has it really been sixteen years? Because
1524
01:33:04.920 --> 01:33:06.520
I was I was talking about it earlier. I thought
1525
01:33:06.520 --> 01:33:09.239
it was like fourteen fifteen years, But man, it just
1526
01:33:10.840 --> 01:33:11.479
time flies.
1527
01:33:11.760 --> 01:33:15.000
Yeah, time flies. And you've been part of it, Brian,
1528
01:33:15.039 --> 01:33:16.920
I think since from the.
1529
01:33:16.920 --> 01:33:19.119
Gig go and you've been there with I think like
1530
01:33:19.199 --> 01:33:20.800
year two is I think the first time that I
1531
01:33:21.279 --> 01:33:22.439
got involved in that one.
1532
01:33:22.520 --> 01:33:25.039
But yeah, and it yeah, broyh.
1533
01:33:25.319 --> 01:33:29.520
Yeah, you can cry, Brian's.
1534
01:33:28.239 --> 01:33:31.119
I'm not a cry baby. I could just be sensitive
1535
01:33:31.199 --> 01:33:35.840
at the appropriate times. And you know, when when you
1536
01:33:35.880 --> 01:33:38.279
see the stuff that you guys do with the Worry
1537
01:33:38.319 --> 01:33:41.520
Beach Retreat. This is one of these things that for
1538
01:33:41.600 --> 01:33:45.039
most people, they don't understand what really goes on because
1539
01:33:45.079 --> 01:33:48.960
what most people will see is the ceremony and the
1540
01:33:49.039 --> 01:33:51.039
big parade that is open to the public, and this
1541
01:33:51.119 --> 01:33:54.039
year it's going to be on November sixth, so mark
1542
01:33:54.119 --> 01:33:56.079
that down to your calendar. We'll get more into that
1543
01:33:56.119 --> 01:33:58.760
here in a second. But what people don't realize is
1544
01:33:58.920 --> 01:34:01.520
what goes on behind the closed doors. And like you said,
1545
01:34:01.520 --> 01:34:04.680
you're you're all about strengthening the marriages and giving it
1546
01:34:04.880 --> 01:34:07.520
an outlet to to get away from the normal life
1547
01:34:07.520 --> 01:34:10.640
and to help out and everything, and what people don't
1548
01:34:10.680 --> 01:34:15.640
see on the background is the absolute emotional aspect of it.
1549
01:34:16.439 --> 01:34:21.239
And again for those of us that literally we're not warriors,
1550
01:34:22.039 --> 01:34:23.640
we're not and there's a lot of people that have
1551
01:34:23.680 --> 01:34:26.640
been involved in this that don't have children that are
1552
01:34:26.680 --> 01:34:30.159
in the military. Unlike you. We also don't have people
1553
01:34:30.159 --> 01:34:33.840
who have been injured in combat. So we're just there
1554
01:34:33.880 --> 01:34:37.399
to help out and to see what these people go
1555
01:34:37.600 --> 01:34:42.239
through on the really a spiritual healing and the experience
1556
01:34:42.279 --> 01:34:47.159
that they get. You can't help, but at least once
1557
01:34:47.279 --> 01:34:50.600
or twice when you're there, tear up and if not,
1558
01:34:50.760 --> 01:34:54.279
have to excuse yourself. It's happened to everybody that's been involved.
1559
01:34:54.399 --> 01:34:56.199
I mean it really truly has.
1560
01:34:56.920 --> 01:35:00.960
We put prayer and fasting honestly in these events that
1561
01:35:01.000 --> 01:35:03.720
we host, and we pray for God to send each
1562
01:35:03.800 --> 01:35:06.680
couple that's supposed to be here. And it's so neat
1563
01:35:06.680 --> 01:35:09.920
to see the dynamic when they come together. How wow,
1564
01:35:10.640 --> 01:35:13.800
because they connect her, they've known each other, even they
1565
01:35:13.920 --> 01:35:16.840
served in war together, because they don't know who's coming
1566
01:35:16.960 --> 01:35:20.720
until they get here. But there's so many unseen wounds
1567
01:35:20.760 --> 01:35:23.439
of war that none of us can even comprehend that
1568
01:35:23.520 --> 01:35:26.800
have never been there. And you know, my dad was
1569
01:35:26.800 --> 01:35:29.279
in the military, have family that was in the military,
1570
01:35:29.640 --> 01:35:33.119
but until our son Josh was there, and you know,
1571
01:35:33.199 --> 01:35:36.520
we're I was with him at Walter Reed and oh
1572
01:35:36.560 --> 01:35:39.439
my gosh, so many you know stories of like a
1573
01:35:39.479 --> 01:35:42.680
woman coming in and taking off her wedding band, laying
1574
01:35:42.720 --> 01:35:45.560
it down, saying I did not sign up for this,
1575
01:35:45.880 --> 01:35:48.880
and walking out the door with her husband laying there,
1576
01:35:49.680 --> 01:35:52.159
you know, because we were on the amputee floor at
1577
01:35:52.199 --> 01:35:55.720
Walter Reed and it just just broke my heart. And
1578
01:35:56.039 --> 01:36:00.520
people don't see from the outside what goes on in
1579
01:36:00.560 --> 01:36:03.399
the inside. And with his families deal with It's just
1580
01:36:03.920 --> 01:36:07.920
and it's a lifetime. You know, our son mentioned well,
1581
01:36:08.000 --> 01:36:10.880
his wife mentioned us about a month ago. You know,
1582
01:36:10.960 --> 01:36:14.239
he lost his legs. What about seventeen years ago they
1583
01:36:14.279 --> 01:36:17.079
got blown up, And it's a miracle he's alive because
1584
01:36:17.119 --> 01:36:20.399
he lost too much blood. But my brother, who was
1585
01:36:20.399 --> 01:36:23.279
a flight surgeon in the Air Force to actually called
1586
01:36:23.319 --> 01:36:26.279
ballade to give us. I knew his legs were gone
1587
01:36:26.319 --> 01:36:29.760
before his wife and she was in lonstool. He said, Linda,
1588
01:36:29.800 --> 01:36:33.399
the only reason Joshua is alive is because you fasted
1589
01:36:33.399 --> 01:36:35.680
and prayed for him as a mom, because he just
1590
01:36:35.760 --> 01:36:38.720
lost too much blood. He said, he lost too much blood.
1591
01:36:38.760 --> 01:36:41.319
So I just encourage every mother out there to always
1592
01:36:41.319 --> 01:36:44.000
pray for your kids, even if they're not in combat,
1593
01:36:44.079 --> 01:36:47.359
because it's not the same world we were raised in.
1594
01:36:47.880 --> 01:36:52.479
But it just, you know, it's just I'm just grateful
1595
01:36:52.520 --> 01:36:56.520
God gave us this vision to help thousands that have
1596
01:36:56.600 --> 01:36:59.239
come through here over the years to have hope and
1597
01:36:59.279 --> 01:37:03.600
healing to carry on and they can relate to each other.
1598
01:37:03.640 --> 01:37:05.960
You know, when you've been there and you've been in
1599
01:37:06.000 --> 01:37:08.960
the battlefield of fox All or whatever with other veterans
1600
01:37:09.159 --> 01:37:10.119
and you come together.
1601
01:37:11.039 --> 01:37:11.560
You get it.
1602
01:37:11.800 --> 01:37:13.399
Yeah, you know, you get it.
1603
01:37:13.439 --> 01:37:16.800
And yeah, and the interesting thing too about this event,
1604
01:37:16.960 --> 01:37:18.640
And I know that you pointed out that some of
1605
01:37:18.640 --> 01:37:21.560
them have served together, but there's a lot that just don't.
1606
01:37:21.760 --> 01:37:25.880
And there's a thing with military and milituitary people know this,
1607
01:37:25.920 --> 01:37:29.479
that there's a camaraderie with one another, and the camaraderie
1608
01:37:29.560 --> 01:37:33.039
that you see that gets developed there because we're not
1609
01:37:33.159 --> 01:37:36.560
talking about people that just went through battle together. We're
1610
01:37:36.560 --> 01:37:40.079
not talking about people who've gone through the wife leaving
1611
01:37:40.159 --> 01:37:42.439
them for whatever reason. We're talking about people who have
1612
01:37:42.520 --> 01:37:47.680
been emotionally hurt, physically hurt. It's a whole different level.
1613
01:37:47.920 --> 01:37:50.479
And to see the camaraderie build up. And you know,
1614
01:37:50.840 --> 01:37:53.880
I've been part of you guys for at least fourteen
1615
01:37:53.920 --> 01:37:57.039
fifteen years now, and there are people from the very
1616
01:37:57.079 --> 01:38:00.680
first one that I that I have done that I
1617
01:38:00.760 --> 01:38:03.760
still communicate with on a regular basis. And and I'm
1618
01:38:03.760 --> 01:38:05.920
not even a warrior. I was just there helping out,
1619
01:38:05.960 --> 01:38:08.880
hanging out with these people and chatting with them, and
1620
01:38:09.279 --> 01:38:11.640
I developed a relationship with some of them. And I've
1621
01:38:11.640 --> 01:38:15.560
seen the relationships that they have built amongst themselves and
1622
01:38:15.560 --> 01:38:18.399
and what it does, it really truly is amazing. And
1623
01:38:18.720 --> 01:38:22.239
to hear their stories and to see them bond with
1624
01:38:22.279 --> 01:38:24.720
each other. And again, most of what happens with the
1625
01:38:24.720 --> 01:38:29.079
Warrior Beach Retreat all happens behind closed doors, completely closed
1626
01:38:29.079 --> 01:38:31.399
to the public, because it's not about the public. It
1627
01:38:31.439 --> 01:38:34.600
is about these these warriors and you guys do some
1628
01:38:34.800 --> 01:38:39.119
amazing things of just it's really a mental therapy or
1629
01:38:39.119 --> 01:38:43.600
a spiritual therapy for them, and it's it's just great
1630
01:38:43.600 --> 01:38:45.920
to see and and of course the big thing that
1631
01:38:46.359 --> 01:38:49.279
the public does get to see, uh, and that is
1632
01:38:49.520 --> 01:38:55.560
the parade, and that itself, that is that's an emotional
1633
01:38:55.720 --> 01:38:59.960
bag right there to say that, And the parade is
1634
01:39:00.039 --> 01:39:03.319
coming up on November sixth, and again, Warriorbeach Retreat dot
1635
01:39:03.399 --> 01:39:05.600
org is the website where you can go for information
1636
01:39:05.720 --> 01:39:10.119
about everything as well as contribute because donations are always
1637
01:39:10.159 --> 01:39:12.640
needed to make this happen because it's expensive to do.
1638
01:39:13.119 --> 01:39:17.600
But tell everybody about the parade and the experience that
1639
01:39:17.680 --> 01:39:18.479
these guys get.
1640
01:39:19.720 --> 01:39:21.920
Well, most of them went straight from the battlefield to
1641
01:39:21.960 --> 01:39:25.000
the hospital to home and never got a hero's welcome.
1642
01:39:25.319 --> 01:39:27.520
And then also in the very front of the parade,
1643
01:39:27.600 --> 01:39:30.039
we have veterans that served before nine to eleven.
1644
01:39:30.079 --> 01:39:30.880
We try to get.
1645
01:39:30.720 --> 01:39:32.520
About five Vietnam.
1646
01:39:32.600 --> 01:39:33.800
We even have.
1647
01:39:33.840 --> 01:39:37.680
World War Two vets that ride sometime, as everybody knows
1648
01:39:37.720 --> 01:39:40.439
how specially the Vietnam vets were treated. But they're in
1649
01:39:40.479 --> 01:39:43.159
the front of the parade, and thankfully our Sheriff's going
1650
01:39:43.159 --> 01:39:46.000
to have his helicopter flying over the parade this year.
1651
01:39:46.079 --> 01:39:51.439
We have tremendous support from the police escorting them. But
1652
01:39:51.600 --> 01:39:54.399
they have a car with a magnet with a flag
1653
01:39:54.479 --> 01:39:57.479
on it with their name, and they ride down the
1654
01:39:57.520 --> 01:40:00.479
streets from the church, from the hotel well to the
1655
01:40:00.560 --> 01:40:06.319
church and healing. They're in their own cars, and healing
1656
01:40:06.399 --> 01:40:09.159
comes to them by seeing all these people on the
1657
01:40:09.199 --> 01:40:12.039
side of the road thanking them. They shout out their
1658
01:40:12.079 --> 01:40:14.279
name because their names on their magnents, and they have
1659
01:40:14.359 --> 01:40:18.199
their flags, they have their sides, all generations of people
1660
01:40:18.239 --> 01:40:21.279
out there honoring these men and women that have served,
1661
01:40:21.359 --> 01:40:26.479
and that in itself is life changing for them. And
1662
01:40:26.760 --> 01:40:28.800
that's why they're in their own car. They have a
1663
01:40:28.840 --> 01:40:30.880
box of cleanic and they go, why am I getting
1664
01:40:30.920 --> 01:40:31.800
this box of cleanic?
1665
01:40:34.119 --> 01:40:35.840
You don't find out, But I.
1666
01:40:35.920 --> 01:40:39.279
Just cannot thank the beautiful community for getting out there
1667
01:40:39.319 --> 01:40:42.039
and lining the streets because they have no idea the
1668
01:40:42.119 --> 01:40:45.159
impact this makes. And I think it brings healing to
1669
01:40:45.239 --> 01:40:48.479
them too, because we've seen people out there holding pictures
1670
01:40:48.520 --> 01:40:51.880
of their child that was lost, that was killed in
1671
01:40:51.920 --> 01:40:54.760
the war, and it's like the parade is also for
1672
01:40:54.840 --> 01:40:57.880
their child, and they're holding a poster with their child's picture.
1673
01:40:57.920 --> 01:41:00.119
And then we all lose it too when that happens.
1674
01:41:00.439 --> 01:41:03.039
And then the military behind the dive school is lining
1675
01:41:03.079 --> 01:41:07.880
the fence and also Coastguard in uniforms saluting these men
1676
01:41:07.920 --> 01:41:12.079
and women, which you know, I thank god when this
1677
01:41:12.119 --> 01:41:15.159
happened to our son. We were in Bay County because
1678
01:41:15.560 --> 01:41:18.720
this is such a patriotic community. But the parade route
1679
01:41:18.800 --> 01:41:22.079
is on our website Warriorbeach Retreat dot org. And if
1680
01:41:22.079 --> 01:41:25.119
they want a flag, the halfway bridge is if they
1681
01:41:25.199 --> 01:41:27.800
go to the Hathway Bridge, they're giving out full size
1682
01:41:27.840 --> 01:41:31.720
American flags for them to hold. And that looks so
1683
01:41:31.800 --> 01:41:34.520
cool with the breeze blowing and all. But I just
1684
01:41:34.640 --> 01:41:38.079
encourage everyone to please go to the website Warriorbeach Retreat
1685
01:41:38.119 --> 01:41:41.720
dot org for the parade route and line the streets.
1686
01:41:41.760 --> 01:41:46.159
And we are leaving at four o'clock from Peer Park
1687
01:41:46.520 --> 01:41:50.560
and we're going to the church's first Baptist Church in
1688
01:41:50.640 --> 01:41:53.720
Lynn Haven and the ceremony is at seven pm and
1689
01:41:53.760 --> 01:41:56.319
it's free and open to the public, and we have
1690
01:41:56.479 --> 01:42:00.840
two time Alabama Senator Hank Irwin is our speaker.
1691
01:42:01.079 --> 01:42:04.640
Awesome, awesome, and of course you've in the past have
1692
01:42:04.640 --> 01:42:07.960
have had a lot of amazing speakers, including you know
1693
01:42:08.000 --> 01:42:11.359
the last one that you had, you know, Alan West,
1694
01:42:11.359 --> 01:42:13.640
who's who's now kind of just in love with this
1695
01:42:13.640 --> 01:42:15.760
this program and one of the things I also want
1696
01:42:15.800 --> 01:42:17.640
to talk about too when it comes to this parade,
1697
01:42:18.479 --> 01:42:22.600
because it's it's the emotion thing that that again people
1698
01:42:22.600 --> 01:42:25.560
don't understand. It's like you you're you're doing a very
1699
01:42:25.600 --> 01:42:29.319
patriotic thing when you go out by you know, spending
1700
01:42:29.399 --> 01:42:32.479
literally a couple of minutes because you guys are because
1701
01:42:32.520 --> 01:42:34.399
of the ad that this is escorted by the police and
1702
01:42:34.439 --> 01:42:36.520
they shut down roads for it. So I mean, it
1703
01:42:36.560 --> 01:42:39.000
is it is pretty on time. If you if you
1704
01:42:39.079 --> 01:42:41.399
look up your area and it says that they're going
1705
01:42:41.479 --> 01:42:43.920
to be coming through here at five fifteen. It may
1706
01:42:43.920 --> 01:42:46.239
be five sixteen, it may be five fourteen, but it's
1707
01:42:46.319 --> 01:42:47.680
right then when they're going to be there, So you
1708
01:42:47.680 --> 01:42:49.680
don't want to be there and people will get out
1709
01:42:49.680 --> 01:42:51.840
there and they'll wave their flags, they'll they'll have their signs,
1710
01:42:51.840 --> 01:42:54.319
they'll just stand out there and shake their hands and
1711
01:42:54.319 --> 01:42:57.039
wave at them and stuff like that. What people don't
1712
01:42:57.079 --> 01:43:01.920
understand is at the end of that parade, when these
1713
01:43:02.039 --> 01:43:04.960
men and women are getting out of their car, the
1714
01:43:05.159 --> 01:43:11.600
emotional overload of what hit them. I mean is it's powerful.
1715
01:43:11.640 --> 01:43:13.680
I mean, I've been there for so many of them
1716
01:43:13.960 --> 01:43:16.920
and to see these people come out of they're almost
1717
01:43:17.039 --> 01:43:21.520
zombified when they get out, Like holy cow. I mean,
1718
01:43:21.520 --> 01:43:25.880
that's just how patriotic this area is to subtly so
1719
01:43:26.159 --> 01:43:29.680
that is fantastic and people really should get out there.
1720
01:43:29.880 --> 01:43:32.600
If you are in the Bay County area on Panama
1721
01:43:32.680 --> 01:43:35.840
City Beach, Panama City, Lynhaven, as the parade goes through,
1722
01:43:35.960 --> 01:43:37.600
just get out there and do it, because you just
1723
01:43:37.760 --> 01:43:40.960
you don't understand the impact of just that small few
1724
01:43:41.000 --> 01:43:43.880
minutes of your life of holding a flag and waving
1725
01:43:43.920 --> 01:43:45.119
to them and what it does.
1726
01:43:46.279 --> 01:43:48.920
It's huge. And if you have a motorcycle and you
1727
01:43:48.960 --> 01:43:51.279
would like to ride in the parade, we love having
1728
01:43:51.279 --> 01:43:53.279
the people with their bikes, and a lot of the
1729
01:43:53.359 --> 01:43:56.840
bikers are veterans. Show up at three point thirty at
1730
01:43:56.880 --> 01:44:00.359
the JC Penny parking lot at Pier Park and they'll
1731
01:44:00.439 --> 01:44:02.720
they'll tell you where to ride in the parade and
1732
01:44:03.920 --> 01:44:06.279
it's it's powerful. But again and then we have so
1733
01:44:06.359 --> 01:44:11.319
many people that support us, like the venues in restaurants
1734
01:44:11.359 --> 01:44:14.399
throughout Bay County and we you know, I don't want
1735
01:44:14.399 --> 01:44:16.600
to list them because I'll miss them, but that's what
1736
01:44:16.760 --> 01:44:20.079
makes these you know, possible. But and then line the
1737
01:44:20.079 --> 01:44:23.159
streets of the parade route with signs or flags, and
1738
01:44:23.520 --> 01:44:26.880
it's so beautiful to see these people out there, you know.
1739
01:44:27.439 --> 01:44:30.159
And it's on Warriorbeach Retreat. Dot org is where you
1740
01:44:30.159 --> 01:44:32.760
can get the parade route. Like Brian said, my husband
1741
01:44:32.920 --> 01:44:36.560
is a man of detail, and he goes we drive
1742
01:44:36.640 --> 01:44:39.199
the parade route and he writes down the times where
1743
01:44:39.199 --> 01:44:42.319
we are at every place so people know, Okay, I'm
1744
01:44:42.319 --> 01:44:44.520
not having to wait out here for an hour. I
1745
01:44:44.560 --> 01:44:47.279
can be out here at this time and so and
1746
01:44:47.319 --> 01:44:50.239
it's just so special. We were bringing a sign to
1747
01:44:50.800 --> 01:44:52.560
for our store to put in their window the other
1748
01:44:52.640 --> 01:44:55.079
day and the lady showed us that she has one
1749
01:44:55.119 --> 01:44:57.960
of the small American flags that for like ten years,
1750
01:44:58.000 --> 01:45:00.920
she's written a date every time she's been there and
1751
01:45:01.000 --> 01:45:04.840
gone outside to watch the parade she had the stick
1752
01:45:05.079 --> 01:45:06.279
was all these dates on it.
1753
01:45:06.399 --> 01:45:07.840
I thought, Oh my goodness.
1754
01:45:07.960 --> 01:45:11.960
So it's just it's just beautiful to live in a
1755
01:45:12.159 --> 01:45:15.880
patriotic community that wants to do what they can to
1756
01:45:15.960 --> 01:45:19.000
honor the sacrifice and service of these men and women.
1757
01:45:19.199 --> 01:45:21.119
And like you said, Brian, from when they get here
1758
01:45:21.680 --> 01:45:24.279
and when they leave. You were talking about after the parade,
1759
01:45:24.640 --> 01:45:26.520
But these guys when they get here, because some of
1760
01:45:26.520 --> 01:45:29.960
them do not leave their houses. Some of them don't
1761
01:45:30.000 --> 01:45:32.199
leave their homes when they get here, and when they leave,
1762
01:45:32.359 --> 01:45:33.960
they're like a total different person.
1763
01:45:34.279 --> 01:45:36.000
And they each get they are.
1764
01:45:35.880 --> 01:45:38.560
They each get like a biobook, like a yearbook with
1765
01:45:38.640 --> 01:45:41.640
everybody's picture and their story, and they keep up with
1766
01:45:41.680 --> 01:45:44.880
each other. They give each other their contact information, and
1767
01:45:44.960 --> 01:45:47.479
so they, like you said, they've become friends for life
1768
01:45:47.640 --> 01:45:51.239
of people that get it. You know, you get it,
1769
01:45:51.439 --> 01:45:54.960
you know you understand, and it's just, you know, like
1770
01:45:55.039 --> 01:45:57.119
the ladies have a day where they're together for a
1771
01:45:57.119 --> 01:46:00.800
spa day and they can connect and share their stories.
1772
01:46:01.079 --> 01:46:03.640
And then the guys go deep sea fishing. Brian, You've
1773
01:46:03.680 --> 01:46:05.000
gone fishing with them, Hammionship.
1774
01:46:05.119 --> 01:46:05.319
I have.
1775
01:46:05.600 --> 01:46:07.119
I've done the deep sea fishing. But you know what,
1776
01:46:07.680 --> 01:46:09.880
Linda I gotta say this because you guys always do
1777
01:46:09.880 --> 01:46:11.680
this where you send the guys off fishing and the
1778
01:46:11.680 --> 01:46:13.560
women to the to do the SPA day.
1779
01:46:14.319 --> 01:46:15.600
Rod, I know what you're gonna say.
1780
01:46:17.159 --> 01:46:20.960
I look, I'm a huge proponent of the SPA day
1781
01:46:21.000 --> 01:46:23.199
because I don't I don't care how manly you are,
1782
01:46:23.279 --> 01:46:24.760
you go do it. And you're gonna just be like,
1783
01:46:25.720 --> 01:46:28.119
oh my god, why haven't When are you going to
1784
01:46:28.159 --> 01:46:29.359
do your spy day for the guys.
1785
01:46:30.399 --> 01:46:32.439
I get that all the time from these veterans, But
1786
01:46:32.479 --> 01:46:34.760
I'm going sorry, from the guys. There are women veterans
1787
01:46:34.760 --> 01:46:37.079
that come to I'm going, no, you go out and
1788
01:46:37.119 --> 01:46:39.840
you get those smelly fish, you kiss us, you call.
1789
01:46:41.119 --> 01:46:43.279
I'm telling you, Linda, you got to put that in there.
1790
01:46:44.159 --> 01:46:47.640
Give the guys that option, and they will. They will
1791
01:46:47.680 --> 01:46:51.319
walk away so relieved. But you know, there there's also
1792
01:46:51.359 --> 01:46:53.800
a darker side to a lot of what goes on
1793
01:46:53.840 --> 01:46:57.880
with our veterans. You know, there's obviously the twenty two.
1794
01:46:57.720 --> 01:46:59.840
A day, yes.
1795
01:47:00.039 --> 01:47:03.600
Which you know, I hate this. I thought I was
1796
01:47:03.640 --> 01:47:06.800
going to do this without crying the number of our
1797
01:47:06.800 --> 01:47:10.600
soldiers that that take their lives every day. Yes, I
1798
01:47:10.640 --> 01:47:13.479
know they say twenty to a day but that number
1799
01:47:13.520 --> 01:47:14.199
is way higher.
1800
01:47:14.960 --> 01:47:16.039
It is it is.
1801
01:47:16.079 --> 01:47:17.840
It's more like twenty three or twenty four.
1802
01:47:18.039 --> 01:47:18.600
Yeah, on it.
1803
01:47:18.680 --> 01:47:21.119
And that's that's what that's what we try to do
1804
01:47:22.039 --> 01:47:24.359
to keep that from happening with the couples that come,
1805
01:47:24.920 --> 01:47:27.479
because what happens, what we saw with our son, the
1806
01:47:27.600 --> 01:47:30.079
eggs hit the fan when you get out of the military,
1807
01:47:30.560 --> 01:47:34.319
because your support group's gone, you're isolated, you're alone. And
1808
01:47:34.359 --> 01:47:38.039
so many of them they're finding demons that nobody can understand.
1809
01:47:38.279 --> 01:47:41.479
And so when they come and they have other people
1810
01:47:41.479 --> 01:47:46.279
that get it, they feel like, I am not alone.
1811
01:47:45.880 --> 01:47:48.840
My my wife, I deal with the same things as
1812
01:47:48.880 --> 01:47:52.079
this other battle buddy, and so they have somebody they
1813
01:47:52.079 --> 01:47:55.439
can connect with. And and eight we felt, we felt
1814
01:47:55.439 --> 01:47:58.039
was a good number because so many of them, you know,
1815
01:47:58.079 --> 01:47:59.960
they all want to sit at a restaurant with their
1816
01:48:00.119 --> 01:48:06.800
back to the wall, but that you can't do that. Yeah,
1817
01:48:07.079 --> 01:48:09.319
there's eighteen with the speaker in his life, that'll be
1818
01:48:09.359 --> 01:48:11.920
in the restaurant. We're going, okay. But they're all watching
1819
01:48:11.960 --> 01:48:14.840
each other's back and it's interesting to see.
1820
01:48:14.840 --> 01:48:15.439
That go on.
1821
01:48:15.640 --> 01:48:18.880
But you know, my brother talked to my son Josh
1822
01:48:18.920 --> 01:48:21.479
because you know, his legs are so high above his knee.
1823
01:48:21.520 --> 01:48:25.520
He can out wear prosthetics, and you know, he's tried
1824
01:48:26.079 --> 01:48:28.199
many times to do them. And I think I was
1825
01:48:28.239 --> 01:48:31.520
telling this story before I got off track. His wife
1826
01:48:31.560 --> 01:48:35.600
told me about several months ago that Joshua is really
1827
01:48:35.680 --> 01:48:40.880
missing his legs. I'm going I would have thought over
1828
01:48:41.039 --> 01:48:44.239
time you would kind of get used to it, but
1829
01:48:44.319 --> 01:48:46.239
you never get used to I mean, every time, even
1830
01:48:46.279 --> 01:48:49.439
at night, it gets up to go to the bathroom, has.
1831
01:48:49.319 --> 01:48:54.600
Again this wheelchair. You know, you can't war as horrible
1832
01:48:54.840 --> 01:48:57.920
it is, and families instead have experienced it though, And
1833
01:48:57.960 --> 01:48:59.640
so I said, josh do you want to try to
1834
01:48:59.640 --> 01:49:02.520
get back on prosthetics, you know or what? But he,
1835
01:49:02.800 --> 01:49:05.399
you know, his wife said, he really misses his legs.
1836
01:49:05.520 --> 01:49:08.439
And so people need to understand that we need to
1837
01:49:08.479 --> 01:49:11.760
support these men and women that have have and and
1838
01:49:12.239 --> 01:49:14.600
a lot of the injuries are the PTSD that you
1839
01:49:14.640 --> 01:49:17.479
don't understand, that we don't see, and there those were
1840
01:49:17.520 --> 01:49:20.520
worse for my son than losing his legs and his
1841
01:49:20.680 --> 01:49:22.159
hand being made, you.
1842
01:49:22.079 --> 01:49:24.600
Know, but which is really one of more of the
1843
01:49:24.600 --> 01:49:26.800
big things with the Worry Beach Retreat that addresses it
1844
01:49:26.800 --> 01:49:31.760
addresses that that deep, dark, hidden pain that a lot
1845
01:49:31.800 --> 01:49:34.439
of them don't know how to come out and address
1846
01:49:34.520 --> 01:49:36.800
and you guys do a great job with that and Linda, Uh,
1847
01:49:36.920 --> 01:49:40.000
like we said, we can't do this without support. And
1848
01:49:40.119 --> 01:49:42.640
obviously support on the parade line is is a good thing,
1849
01:49:43.279 --> 01:49:44.760
but it does cost a lot of money. I mean,
1850
01:49:44.800 --> 01:49:47.359
we're we're in a different time where you know, there
1851
01:49:47.520 --> 01:49:49.800
there's a lot of people that will will donate uh,
1852
01:49:50.159 --> 01:49:53.520
services and and money uh to make this happen, but
1853
01:49:53.560 --> 01:49:56.560
it still does cost a tremendous amount to do this.
1854
01:49:57.119 --> 01:50:01.800
How can people contribute to the Warrior Beach Retreat to
1855
01:50:01.920 --> 01:50:06.159
help out these these soldiers if they have I don't know,
1856
01:50:06.359 --> 01:50:08.760
five dollars or one thousand dollars or whatever it is
1857
01:50:08.800 --> 01:50:11.680
that they may want to contribute to this amazing cause.
1858
01:50:11.720 --> 01:50:12.600
How do people help out?
1859
01:50:13.840 --> 01:50:17.079
Well, they can go to our website Warriorbeach Retreat dot
1860
01:50:17.319 --> 01:50:19.680
org and they can see how they can donate. And
1861
01:50:19.760 --> 01:50:22.600
like you said, Brian, you know, years ago they used
1862
01:50:22.640 --> 01:50:26.039
to donate the rooms, but they haven't for like five years.
1863
01:50:26.079 --> 01:50:28.199
We have to pay for room for them to stay,
1864
01:50:28.399 --> 01:50:30.399
so it's different. But I wanted to say one thing
1865
01:50:30.479 --> 01:50:35.560
that my brother asked Josh. She said, why have you
1866
01:50:35.680 --> 01:50:38.000
considered taking your life, which is like, why did you
1867
01:50:38.039 --> 01:50:40.880
ask my brother myself that? He said, Brian, josh how
1868
01:50:40.920 --> 01:50:44.279
do you feel about that? And Joshua said, I Am
1869
01:50:44.359 --> 01:50:47.399
not going to take my life because I'm living my
1870
01:50:47.600 --> 01:50:51.760
life for my friends that couldn't. He had so many
1871
01:50:51.800 --> 01:50:53.800
friends that died because he was with the Big Red
1872
01:50:53.840 --> 01:50:56.720
Ones that lost. They have the most casualties of the
1873
01:50:56.760 --> 01:51:00.680
war in Iraq. And he said, I'm living my friends
1874
01:51:00.680 --> 01:51:04.520
that didn't. And so that that that is a mom
1875
01:51:04.720 --> 01:51:06.920
made me proud of him. And he's going, you know,
1876
01:51:07.000 --> 01:51:09.279
it's I'm not going to go that route because so
1877
01:51:09.359 --> 01:51:12.000
I have so many friends that wanted to live that
1878
01:51:12.000 --> 01:51:15.199
that couldn't. You know that that gave the ultimate sacrifice
1879
01:51:15.239 --> 01:51:18.199
for our freedom. So it's just you know, and we
1880
01:51:18.239 --> 01:51:21.800
appreciate the prayers of everybody for every couple coming for
1881
01:51:21.920 --> 01:51:25.079
their lives to be touched and changed and to be
1882
01:51:25.119 --> 01:51:28.560
made whole in every way that they can. But like
1883
01:51:28.600 --> 01:51:32.239
you said, by donations are needed at Warriorbeach Retreat dot org.
1884
01:51:32.279 --> 01:51:33.439
It's much appreciated.
1885
01:51:33.600 --> 01:51:36.960
And we are local, yeah, and that not that the thing.
1886
01:51:37.520 --> 01:51:40.319
You guys are a local group doing some great work.
1887
01:51:40.680 --> 01:51:44.880

like working with these people, and it really truly is amazing. Linda,

Good morning, all right, welcome back to the Brian Rush Show.
1915
01:53:22.079 --> 01:53:24.680
Happy Red Friday. Thanks so much for checking us out today.
1916
01:53:24.720 --> 01:53:26.800
And this is one of my best parts of the
1917
01:53:27.159 --> 01:53:30.000
My favorite parts of the week is the the hour
1918
01:53:30.079 --> 01:53:32.960
number three, bottom of the hour when we get to
1919
01:53:32.960 --> 01:53:40.680
bring in the Doster Boys from America in View. Guys, Hello, Hey.
1920
01:53:40.520 --> 01:53:43.079
Hey, Glen, how you doing man. We found we're very
1921
01:53:43.119 --> 01:53:44.479
refreshed after your vacation.
1922
01:53:44.800 --> 01:53:48.119
I am very refreshed that and you know, being back
1923
01:53:48.119 --> 01:53:50.319
in the Knock It Off studio and not having to
1924
01:53:50.479 --> 01:53:55.840
do the show via the remote gear, and honestly, I
1925
01:53:55.920 --> 01:53:59.680
was doing it lounging on the couch where we were staying,
1926
01:54:00.119 --> 01:54:03.399
and I got a little relaxed. So it's kind of
1927
01:54:03.479 --> 01:54:06.600
nice to be back here. I had to put some
1928
01:54:06.600 --> 01:54:08.840
pants back on because we're obviously doing the show on
1929
01:54:08.920 --> 01:54:11.399
Rumble and Wimken as well, so I had to have
1930
01:54:11.439 --> 01:54:13.319
some clothes on for it. But it's good to be
1931
01:54:13.319 --> 01:54:15.640
back in the studio and also good to have you
1932
01:54:15.680 --> 01:54:18.800
guys on because there's so much to talk about. And man,
1933
01:54:18.840 --> 01:54:21.239
I'm not even sure where we begin. I guess we can.
1934
01:54:21.399 --> 01:54:25.159
We can hit on the Schumer shutdown initially with some
1935
01:54:25.199 --> 01:54:26.439
of your thoughts on that. What do you think?
1936
01:54:28.399 --> 01:54:31.199
Yeah, it's been really going interesting this week. I think
1937
01:54:31.239 --> 01:54:34.319
the Democrats have really walked themselves into a blind canyon here.
1938
01:54:35.039 --> 01:54:38.039
You've called it the Schumer shutdown. It's clearly being aligned
1939
01:54:38.079 --> 01:54:41.439
with the Democratic Party. Interestingly enough, Brian, a lot of
1940
01:54:41.439 --> 01:54:44.720
the public public polls right now are splitting it about
1941
01:54:44.720 --> 01:54:47.000
fifty to fifty as who they blame more for it.
1942
01:54:47.560 --> 01:54:50.000
But I think the Republican base loves this right now.
1943
01:54:50.039 --> 01:54:54.199
And I'll tell you who else loves it is nonpartisan voters. Yeah, so, yeah,
1944
01:54:54.319 --> 01:54:56.439
the Democrats veteran voters matter, Yes.
1945
01:54:56.319 --> 01:54:56.880
They do matter.
1946
01:54:56.920 --> 01:54:59.039
But as we get into the midterms next year, I
1947
01:54:59.039 --> 01:55:01.640
think people like to se the Republicans holding the line
1948
01:55:01.680 --> 01:55:04.439
and hey, the Democrats are saying they want to shut
1949
01:55:04.439 --> 01:55:08.239
the government down because the Republicans won't spend more money
1950
01:55:08.279 --> 01:55:10.439
and ultimately that is a losing message.
1951
01:55:10.600 --> 01:55:12.359
Mm hmm, yeah it is. And you know, I think
1952
01:55:12.520 --> 01:55:14.239
somebody else that might be a little excited about it.
1953
01:55:14.239 --> 01:55:15.880
And I think Donald Trump might have been onto something
1954
01:55:16.119 --> 01:55:18.319
when he said this in his post, is that there
1955
01:55:18.319 --> 01:55:22.039
are probably some Democrats that realized, oh crap, we really
1956
01:55:22.079 --> 01:55:23.399
got to cut some of the spending. We had to
1957
01:55:23.439 --> 01:55:25.760
cut some of this stuff. But I can't say it
1958
01:55:25.840 --> 01:55:29.520
because I don't have the cajonez that John Fetterman has.
1959
01:55:29.920 --> 01:55:33.119
So I'll just vote for the shutdown and see what happens.
1960
01:55:33.439 --> 01:55:35.640
There may be some Democrats out there that are excited
1961
01:55:35.640 --> 01:55:38.399
about it, going whoo now it can be done, and
1962
01:55:38.439 --> 01:55:39.560
I don't get to blame for it.
1963
01:55:41.439 --> 01:55:45.000
Yeah, totally. Man, you looked at John Fetterman. I mean,
1964
01:55:45.039 --> 01:55:46.680
who would have thought that we would be in this
1965
01:55:46.800 --> 01:55:50.479
place where John Fetterman is like the reasonable guy, I know,
1966
01:55:50.680 --> 01:55:53.119
the one that we can you know, work with and
1967
01:55:53.239 --> 01:55:56.000
kind of talk some sense on some of the issues
1968
01:55:56.000 --> 01:55:58.560
that are out there. But man, you're exactly right, Brian.
1969
01:55:58.640 --> 01:56:04.000
These these whether you're Republican or Democrat, the financial position
1970
01:56:04.079 --> 01:56:07.000
of the United States federal government is just not good.
1971
01:56:07.079 --> 01:56:10.159
And everybody knows that we're spending way too much money.
1972
01:56:10.439 --> 01:56:14.039
The federal debt is thirty eight trillion dollars. I mean,
1973
01:56:14.199 --> 01:56:16.560
it's a number that really kind of wrecks your brain
1974
01:56:16.600 --> 01:56:19.560
when you think about it, because it just doesn't make sense.
1975
01:56:19.640 --> 01:56:22.439
And we're adding to it a couple of trillion dollars
1976
01:56:22.479 --> 01:56:25.239
a year, and so yeah, everybody knows it. I mean,
1977
01:56:25.279 --> 01:56:27.439
it's the elephant in the room. Everybody knows at some
1978
01:56:27.640 --> 01:56:31.880
point we've got to stop spending like this. And you know,
1979
01:56:31.920 --> 01:56:36.439
these these kind of gymnastics that the politicians in Washington,
1980
01:56:36.560 --> 01:56:39.319
DC go through whenever we get to these points, and
1981
01:56:40.079 --> 01:56:42.039
then it becomes, well, you know, what deal are we
1982
01:56:42.079 --> 01:56:44.520
going to get? Whose fault is it that we're shut down?
1983
01:56:44.680 --> 01:56:47.600
In the end. In the end, we've got to figure
1984
01:56:47.600 --> 01:56:49.640
out a way to stop spending so much money.
1985
01:56:49.880 --> 01:56:53.920
Yeah, yeah, we really do. And I think that Donald
1986
01:56:53.960 --> 01:56:55.960
Trump's got the ideas him and russ are going to
1987
01:56:56.399 --> 01:56:58.960
start cutting some things. So it could be interesting to
1988
01:56:58.960 --> 01:57:02.560
see what happens with all the cuts that that now
1989
01:57:02.600 --> 01:57:06.800
Donald Trump can do with unilaterally without Congress getting involved.
1990
01:57:07.319 --> 01:57:09.960
And I think the Democrats they boom booed on that
1991
01:57:10.000 --> 01:57:10.600
one big time.
1992
01:57:13.640 --> 01:57:16.640
Yeah, you're spot on with that, and I think what's interesting,
1993
01:57:16.680 --> 01:57:20.680
Brian is that as you see the national mood sort
1994
01:57:20.720 --> 01:57:24.640
of elevate on the level of what I would call cuts,
1995
01:57:25.119 --> 01:57:28.319
you also see agencies coming at risk. Now you're seeing
1996
01:57:28.399 --> 01:57:31.600
agency expenditures coming up under the microscope. And that's even
1997
01:57:31.640 --> 01:57:34.600
having an effect on state like Florida, where now Blazing
1998
01:57:34.600 --> 01:57:39.159
Goalie is out on a crusade to peel back the
1999
01:57:39.199 --> 01:57:41.439
layers on all these cities in counties. So you know,
2000
01:57:41.520 --> 01:57:43.680
what's going on in DC right now is having enough
2001
01:57:43.760 --> 01:57:45.560
secon nationwide. And I think it's good.
2002
01:57:45.880 --> 01:57:49.119
Yeah, yeah, it's absolutely good. And that's a perfect transition
2003
01:57:49.239 --> 01:57:52.840
too to get into the other topic, and that is doze.
2004
01:57:53.319 --> 01:57:56.039
You know, obviously the doze that Donald Trump and Elon
2005
01:57:56.159 --> 01:58:00.319
Musk did has exposed a lot of of failure and
2006
01:58:00.399 --> 01:58:03.119
are managing our money on the national level. But Rondes
2007
01:58:03.159 --> 01:58:04.680
santa Is not too long ago said you know what,
2008
01:58:04.840 --> 01:58:07.079
like so many other politicians, which I don't know why
2009
01:58:07.119 --> 01:58:09.439
it took, you know, the national level to do this,
2010
01:58:09.479 --> 01:58:11.000
and people to think we should look at what we're
2011
01:58:11.000 --> 01:58:13.960
spending on. But Ronda Santas jumped on that as well,
2012
01:58:14.119 --> 01:58:17.640
and Blazing Golia, who's now our new CFO replacing Jimmy.
2013
01:58:18.359 --> 01:58:20.880
They've they've been diving into some things in Man. The
2014
01:58:20.920 --> 01:58:24.319
stuff that they found. Let's talk about that mess.
2015
01:58:26.399 --> 01:58:31.119
Yeah, a huge, huge effort by CFO, blazing Golia. He's
2016
01:58:31.119 --> 01:58:34.319
doing a great job just really bringing a spotlight on
2017
01:58:34.880 --> 01:58:37.680
man just some just some out of control stuff. He
2018
01:58:38.079 --> 01:58:41.319
I loved his tweet. I guess it was maybe yesterday
2019
01:58:42.159 --> 01:58:46.279
about the poet Laureate of Orlando and he even wrote
2020
01:58:46.319 --> 01:58:49.840
his own poem on Twitter to show that the expenditure
2021
01:58:49.920 --> 01:58:52.680
in the millions of dollars, you know, is not needed
2022
01:58:52.720 --> 01:58:54.520
for this kind of stuff. You were just telling me,
2023
01:58:55.079 --> 01:58:58.920
Brian about the drag show in Sante Polo that was funded.
2024
01:58:58.960 --> 01:59:01.039
What was the consultant was how much consulted?
2025
01:59:01.119 --> 01:59:05.399
Was one hundred and fifty thousand dollars to bring in
2026
01:59:05.039 --> 01:59:08.119
a draft. I guess it's like an anti Christmas or
2027
01:59:08.600 --> 01:59:11.439
something drag show at the Sanger Theater. And that's just
2028
01:59:11.439 --> 01:59:13.960
the consulting. That doesn't include any of the other defenses.
2029
01:59:14.159 --> 01:59:19.520
Yeah, just the consultant. And it underscores a lot of
2030
01:59:19.800 --> 01:59:23.039
the debate that's been going on on property taxes, regardless
2031
01:59:23.079 --> 01:59:26.039
of where that tax policy ends up landing over the
2032
01:59:26.079 --> 01:59:29.239
next few years. The reality is that these local government
2033
01:59:29.600 --> 01:59:33.479
budgets have increased dramatically over the last four years. They've
2034
01:59:33.520 --> 01:59:38.479
really benefited from the COVID expansion, the inflationary expansion, and
2035
01:59:38.520 --> 01:59:41.640
then just these home values going way up, and a
2036
01:59:41.640 --> 01:59:44.399
lot of these local governments they're not giving the money
2037
01:59:44.479 --> 01:59:46.960
back to the tax payer. They're just going into these
2038
01:59:47.079 --> 01:59:50.199
kinds of projects that people don't know about, yep, and
2039
01:59:50.239 --> 01:59:52.760
they cost a lot of money. And yeah, I mean
2040
01:59:52.760 --> 01:59:55.039
it's got to get rolled back. And whether it's through
2041
01:59:55.119 --> 01:59:58.199
the pressure of what in Goalie is doing and just
2042
01:59:58.439 --> 02:00:01.479
you know, public opinion being educated on this sort of thing,
2043
02:00:02.039 --> 02:00:03.199
it's got to get rolled back.
2044
02:00:03.479 --> 02:00:06.279
Yeah, it really does. And you know, you look at
2045
02:00:06.279 --> 02:00:08.880
things like the Pensacola deal, and there there was so
2046
02:00:08.960 --> 02:00:10.880
much that got exposed in this too. I mean one
2047
02:00:10.920 --> 02:00:13.640
hundred and fifty thousand dollars just for a consultant to
2048
02:00:13.680 --> 02:00:16.199
do this. I mean, look in Pensacola, you could just
2049
02:00:16.239 --> 02:00:18.319
go down to civil quarters down there in the bottom
2050
02:00:18.319 --> 02:00:20.119
and good chances are you could find a couple of
2051
02:00:20.199 --> 02:00:22.279
drag queens and say, hey, you want to come do
2052
02:00:22.600 --> 02:00:24.840
a song and dance, come on over here. And I
2053
02:00:24.840 --> 02:00:26.560
would have consulted I would have done that for ten
2054
02:00:26.600 --> 02:00:28.880
grand I would have gone down and just found a
2055
02:00:28.880 --> 02:00:30.920
couple of them and said, hey, here you go, And
2056
02:00:30.920 --> 02:00:33.399
that would have saved Pensacola one hundred and forty thousand dollars.
2057
02:00:34.720 --> 02:00:35.880
And the question that you have.
2058
02:00:35.960 --> 02:00:39.000
To have a different good. Yeah.
2059
02:00:39.000 --> 02:00:40.760
The difference is, Brian, is that you'd be doing it
2060
02:00:40.800 --> 02:00:43.159
with private money, not taxpayer money.
2061
02:00:43.399 --> 02:00:43.640
Yeah.
2062
02:00:43.920 --> 02:00:46.479
Well maybe, I mean, if they're going to spend the
2063
02:00:46.479 --> 02:00:48.359
taxpayer money and they're going to spend one hundred and fifty,
2064
02:00:48.359 --> 02:00:51.960
I'll take ten and save them money. I'm off about that.
2065
02:00:52.039 --> 02:00:54.119
But the problem with things like that, though, is that
2066
02:00:54.600 --> 02:00:56.319
you know, with that one hundred and fifty thousand just
2067
02:00:56.359 --> 02:00:58.640
in the consultant, again, who knows how much more they're
2068
02:00:58.680 --> 02:01:01.039
spending for the promoting of it and the actual show
2069
02:01:01.079 --> 02:01:04.000
and everything else. What is it bringing in? You know?
2070
02:01:04.039 --> 02:01:05.920
I mean, obviously we see things like here in Bay
2071
02:01:05.920 --> 02:01:09.399
County with Panama City Beach with a TDC, where sure
2072
02:01:09.439 --> 02:01:10.880
there's a lot of people that get upset about some
2073
02:01:10.920 --> 02:01:14.439
money that gets spent, but they will spend money on
2074
02:01:14.640 --> 02:01:17.000
promoting something or doing a show or whatever it might be,
2075
02:01:17.640 --> 02:01:20.880
and we get hotel rooms filled, we get restaurants filled,
2076
02:01:20.880 --> 02:01:24.159
with people, and it's something that you know, translated into
2077
02:01:24.199 --> 02:01:27.279
money into the community. I can't imagine that a drag
2078
02:01:27.359 --> 02:01:30.760
Christmas show is going to bring a huge draw that's
2079
02:01:30.760 --> 02:01:33.920
going to bring in millions to Pensacola. It's just scratches
2080
02:01:33.960 --> 02:01:34.640
your head a little bit.
2081
02:01:37.800 --> 02:01:38.439
Yeah, I think.
2082
02:01:41.840 --> 02:01:47.119
A smart man, Yeah, go ahead, and we even want
2083
02:01:47.159 --> 02:01:48.880
to have that crowd show up in your town. I
2084
02:01:48.920 --> 02:01:49.760
mean I certainly don't.
2085
02:01:50.000 --> 02:01:52.319
Yeah, yeah, I think a lot of people don't. But
2086
02:01:52.520 --> 02:01:54.560
there was also so many other things too that were
2087
02:01:54.600 --> 02:02:00.239
discovered during the Florida doze. And I think the dollar
2088
02:02:00.279 --> 02:02:02.359
amount that I think I saw it was something like
2089
02:02:02.439 --> 02:02:06.239
eight billion dollars statewide so far that Blaze and the
2090
02:02:06.279 --> 02:02:09.560
team has found of just wasted money. And here in
2091
02:02:09.600 --> 02:02:12.119
the state of Florida alone, that's insane.
2092
02:02:14.760 --> 02:02:17.760
So as the fans right now, Brian, all the municipalities
2093
02:02:17.760 --> 02:02:20.720
in the state together, and there's about forty five percent
2094
02:02:20.840 --> 02:02:25.880
of Flordians that live inside municipalities they raise or levy
2095
02:02:26.000 --> 02:02:29.079
every year about well, they've levied this year about eight
2096
02:02:29.079 --> 02:02:33.439
point five billion dollars. They've already found enough to cover
2097
02:02:34.000 --> 02:02:37.439
eliminating property taxes for those eight point five billion dollars.
2098
02:02:37.520 --> 02:02:39.359
Right now, if you go to the county level, there's
2099
02:02:39.399 --> 02:02:42.079
another twenty five billion on top of that. But you know,
2100
02:02:42.159 --> 02:02:44.920
Ron Desantas and Blaze and Goalie both started out with
2101
02:02:44.960 --> 02:02:49.359
the notion that if you could cut the expenditures in half,
2102
02:02:49.439 --> 02:02:53.279
stay wide, with all these perdicious spending patterns, then there
2103
02:02:53.319 --> 02:02:56.520
would be enough cushion there to really get on track
2104
02:02:56.640 --> 02:03:00.279
for eliminating property taxes with some other replacement revenue. And
2105
02:03:00.319 --> 02:03:02.079
I think they're showing that that there's a lot of
2106
02:03:02.119 --> 02:03:05.680
efficiencies that can be found here. So I think this
2107
02:03:05.760 --> 02:03:08.560
is a good first step. They're embarrassing these public officials
2108
02:03:08.680 --> 02:03:11.239
and all these guys in Gallus who've been going to
2109
02:03:11.239 --> 02:03:14.479
Tallahassee wying with their hands out saying that they can
2110
02:03:14.600 --> 02:03:17.920
make it on the local tax base, are just well
2111
02:03:18.079 --> 02:03:19.640
they're off base. Yeah.
2112
02:03:19.840 --> 02:03:22.239
Yeah, be careful what you're spending your money on. I mean,
2113
02:03:22.239 --> 02:03:24.399
it's very simple economics.
2114
02:03:25.119 --> 02:03:25.319
You know.
2115
02:03:25.399 --> 02:03:28.319
The question that I think all these politicians should ask
2116
02:03:28.359 --> 02:03:32.000
when they spend money is what is the ROI on this?
2117
02:03:32.680 --> 02:03:35.279
You know, and things like the drag show. I doubt
2118
02:03:35.319 --> 02:03:37.960
that there's going to be much of a return spending
2119
02:03:38.000 --> 02:03:39.920
the money on a new fire truck. What's the return
2120
02:03:39.960 --> 02:03:41.800
on that, Well, we put out a fire and we
2121
02:03:41.840 --> 02:03:44.680
rescue our citizens, you know. So I think that there
2122
02:03:44.720 --> 02:03:48.520
needs to be better examining of our money, and we
2123
02:03:48.640 --> 02:03:50.960
the people need to be more aware of this. I mean,
2124
02:03:51.199 --> 02:03:53.039
I was going through that list that was released the
2125
02:03:53.119 --> 02:03:56.880
other day, and I was blown away. I can imagine
2126
02:03:56.880 --> 02:03:59.800
how many other Floridians are reading that list and just
2127
02:03:59.840 --> 02:04:03.239
be shocked by the amount of money that's being wasted
2128
02:04:03.319 --> 02:04:06.600
on stupid things, especially when we have important things that
2129
02:04:06.640 --> 02:04:10.920
need to be done, like infrastructure and other important things,
2130
02:04:11.159 --> 02:04:13.520
and here we are spending money on drag shows.
2131
02:04:15.399 --> 02:04:19.079
You know, Brian, A lot of a lot of the
2132
02:04:19.199 --> 02:04:23.000
scrutiny on spending has historically been on the federal government, right,
2133
02:04:23.039 --> 02:04:25.199
A lot of the grants that you'll hear people talk
2134
02:04:25.239 --> 02:04:28.239
about like, oh, we studied, you know, some sort of
2135
02:04:28.279 --> 02:04:33.880
like really obscure scientific inquiry that you know, somebody could
2136
02:04:33.880 --> 02:04:36.520
have just figured out without spending the millions of dollars
2137
02:04:36.520 --> 02:04:37.079
that it takes.
2138
02:04:37.279 --> 02:04:38.760
Yeah, and now.
2139
02:04:38.600 --> 02:04:41.079
We're learning, we're learning that a lot of that same
2140
02:04:41.119 --> 02:04:43.439
stuff is happening right here in our own backyards, you know,
2141
02:04:43.560 --> 02:04:47.119
right right here in our local governments. And so you're right,
2142
02:04:47.159 --> 02:04:48.920
I hope the word is getting out. I mean, there's
2143
02:04:48.920 --> 02:04:51.199
a lot in the news right now that that's keeping
2144
02:04:51.239 --> 02:04:54.399
people entertained or distracted. So I hope there is a
2145
02:04:54.399 --> 02:04:56.880
lot of people paying attention because this is one of
2146
02:04:56.960 --> 02:05:00.159
the most substantive things that's come out of of this
2147
02:05:00.239 --> 02:05:02.840
review of our local governments in a long time. And
2148
02:05:03.039 --> 02:05:06.000
I really you know, there are some local governments out there,
2149
02:05:06.000 --> 02:05:09.399
they're doing things right. There's a few, there's a few
2150
02:05:09.439 --> 02:05:12.800
that are that are trying to be physically responsible and
2151
02:05:12.880 --> 02:05:15.520
trying to have good, good spending. But man, there's a
2152
02:05:15.520 --> 02:05:16.159
lot that are not.
2153
02:05:16.439 --> 02:05:19.600
And you know, ironically, it just so happens to be
2154
02:05:20.000 --> 02:05:22.119
all of these cities that are very blue leaning in
2155
02:05:22.159 --> 02:05:28.039
the state of Florida, Jacksonville, Orlando, Pensacola, that have appeared
2156
02:05:28.079 --> 02:05:32.640
with some really extraordinarily high stupid things that they have
2157
02:05:32.720 --> 02:05:35.119
spent money on that you just don't need to be
2158
02:05:35.119 --> 02:05:35.840
spending money on.
2159
02:05:38.039 --> 02:05:42.840
Yeah, it's a philosophical difference or a different mindset. Look,
2160
02:05:42.960 --> 02:05:46.199
whenever you are a lover of government and you believe
2161
02:05:46.319 --> 02:05:48.840
that all good things happen at the hands of government,
2162
02:05:49.119 --> 02:05:51.920
then you're looking to try to extract more money from
2163
02:05:51.920 --> 02:05:55.560
Brian Rust. You're looking to extract more money from other
2164
02:05:55.640 --> 02:05:58.800
citizens to essentially put yourself in a position of you
2165
02:05:58.880 --> 02:06:03.439
allocating money for them to causes that you believe government
2166
02:06:03.600 --> 02:06:07.359
has designated as just or as designated as being culturally
2167
02:06:07.840 --> 02:06:11.640
important for the community. And you know, conservatives generally take
2168
02:06:11.640 --> 02:06:14.279
the notion that, hey, let the consumers decide. You know,
2169
02:06:14.319 --> 02:06:16.479
if people want certain things, let them find it, let
2170
02:06:16.560 --> 02:06:18.720
them keep their own money and make their own decisions.
2171
02:06:19.039 --> 02:06:21.079
And that makes for a more vibrant economy, It makes
2172
02:06:21.079 --> 02:06:23.880
for a more vibrant community, and you don't have all
2173
02:06:23.920 --> 02:06:26.359
this waste and garbage that we see in the public
2174
02:06:26.399 --> 02:06:27.359
sphere exactly.
2175
02:06:27.399 --> 02:06:29.640
I mean, as as a concert promoter or show promoter,
2176
02:06:29.720 --> 02:06:31.279
if I look at it and go I can make
2177
02:06:31.319 --> 02:06:32.920
a lot of money by doing a drag Christmas show
2178
02:06:32.920 --> 02:06:35.359
in Pensacola. I'm going to invest in it. Go invest
2179
02:06:35.359 --> 02:06:39.199
in it and not be our taxpayer dollars. But you know,
2180
02:06:39.239 --> 02:06:41.600
it all boils down to two really good leadership and
2181
02:06:41.600 --> 02:06:44.600
the transparency. And coming up next year, we obviously have
2182
02:06:44.800 --> 02:06:48.439
a leadership battle that is going on. Let's talk about
2183
02:06:48.439 --> 02:06:51.039
the run for governor. What's what's the latest news and
2184
02:06:51.119 --> 02:06:53.119
latest showdown that's going on there.
2185
02:06:54.600 --> 02:06:58.079
Yeah, So Byron Donalds made a lot of news talking
2186
02:06:58.119 --> 02:07:02.479
about his fundraising over the last quarter. And uh, there's
2187
02:07:02.520 --> 02:07:05.199
a lot of rumors going around and that are not
2188
02:07:05.239 --> 02:07:07.640
even rumors that was coming straight from our new Lieutenant
2189
02:07:07.680 --> 02:07:13.920
governor Jake Collins, that he was possibly announcing his candidacy
2190
02:07:14.000 --> 02:07:16.359
for the governor's race. He's backed off that and so
2191
02:07:16.439 --> 02:07:18.640
he sort of pulled his name out at least for now.
2192
02:07:19.119 --> 02:07:21.039
It remains to be seen whether he's going to come
2193
02:07:21.079 --> 02:07:23.920
back and and launch into that. Then of course we've
2194
02:07:23.920 --> 02:07:26.199
got Paul Renner who's running for governor on the on
2195
02:07:26.239 --> 02:07:28.720
the Republican side as well. He has not released his
2196
02:07:28.800 --> 02:07:32.159
numbers yet, but he's out there. And then there's you know,
2197
02:07:32.239 --> 02:07:34.479
there's some fun stuff going on on the Democratic side.
2198
02:07:34.520 --> 02:07:37.520
I don't pay as much attention to that. I'll take
2199
02:07:37.560 --> 02:07:41.079
care of it so well. And we're going to figure
2200
02:07:41.079 --> 02:07:43.079
out who their nominee is. But they're gonna have to
2201
02:07:43.159 --> 02:07:45.840
they're gonna have to battle that out. You know, that's
2202
02:07:45.880 --> 02:07:46.920
just a whole different animal.
2203
02:07:47.159 --> 02:07:50.399
Yeah, yeah, that it is, and we'll we'll obviously dive
2204
02:07:50.439 --> 02:07:52.600
into that, but it'll be interesting to see who ends
2205
02:07:52.680 --> 02:07:56.720
up being the the governor coming up next year because
2206
02:07:56.720 --> 02:07:58.800
it'll be a make it or break it for the
2207
02:07:58.800 --> 02:08:01.439
state of Florida, especially if we allow the Democrats to
2208
02:08:01.880 --> 02:08:05.279
take any sort of charge on that the show coming
2209
02:08:05.359 --> 02:08:06.920
up tomorrow, you'd have no guests and hang on a
2210
02:08:06.920 --> 02:08:09.920
saying let me just check my email again. No, I
2211
02:08:09.960 --> 02:08:12.239
didn't see one there, So you don't have any guest tomorrow.
2212
02:08:13.039 --> 02:08:15.520
I was looking for an invite. So what's going on
2213
02:08:15.640 --> 02:08:19.039
this show in the American view tomorrow? I won't let
2214
02:08:19.039 --> 02:08:20.399
it go. I just won't let it go.
2215
02:08:20.880 --> 02:08:22.600
All right, we're gonna have you on next week. We're
2216
02:08:22.600 --> 02:08:23.439
going to make this happen.
2217
02:08:23.520 --> 02:08:24.000
There we go.
2218
02:08:24.079 --> 02:08:26.479
But yeah, let me tell.
2219
02:08:26.399 --> 02:08:29.119
You what we're debating tomorrow. So we are working on
2220
02:08:29.159 --> 02:08:31.479
the government shutdown. We're peeling that back. You've been doing
2221
02:08:31.520 --> 02:08:32.920
a good job of doing that. I don't think they're
2222
02:08:32.920 --> 02:08:34.600
gonna have a deal of this weekend, so we're gonna
2223
02:08:34.600 --> 02:08:39.119
have lots to talk about. Secondly, Trump and Pete Hegseth
2224
02:08:39.239 --> 02:08:42.600
made big news this week by calling all the top
2225
02:08:42.640 --> 02:08:47.640
brass in the military into DC and essentially I don't
2226
02:08:47.680 --> 02:08:49.880
want to say dressing them down, but briefing them on
2227
02:08:49.960 --> 02:08:53.800
the new standards for the military, basically throwing out all
2228
02:08:53.800 --> 02:08:57.760
the DEI will garbage that you've seen populated inside the
2229
02:08:57.920 --> 02:09:00.680
high brass in the military in the past years under
2230
02:09:00.680 --> 02:09:04.880
Biden and really going back to the Obama administration. More importantly,
2231
02:09:05.680 --> 02:09:10.439
he emphasized that he was going to reassert physical fitness standards,
2232
02:09:10.479 --> 02:09:14.520
which is going to put the best, brightest, and strongest
2233
02:09:15.079 --> 02:09:18.520
in cohesive come that units in a way that has
2234
02:09:18.560 --> 02:09:21.680
not been seen in probably fifteen years. And so this
2235
02:09:22.039 --> 02:09:24.520
kind of what I would call getting back to the
2236
02:09:24.560 --> 02:09:28.159
basics of our military, putting strong men out front on
2237
02:09:28.239 --> 02:09:30.880
the fighting forces is going to be really really good
2238
02:09:30.920 --> 02:09:33.039
for recruiting, and I think it's gonna payoff in a
2239
02:09:33.039 --> 02:09:34.560
big way. So we're gonna be talking about that a
2240
02:09:34.560 --> 02:09:35.600
lot this weekend as well.
2241
02:09:35.880 --> 02:09:37.600
That's awesome. Sounds like it's gonna be a great show
2242
02:09:37.640 --> 02:09:40.399
coming up tomorrow America in View, which has heard right
2243
02:09:40.439 --> 02:09:44.079
here on Florida Man Radio. And I'll be looking forward
2244
02:09:44.119 --> 02:09:46.359
to that invite one day, and I might even come
2245
02:09:46.399 --> 02:09:49.720
up to Tallahassee and do it from there, just just
2246
02:09:49.760 --> 02:09:51.359
to add some chaos.
2247
02:09:54.039 --> 02:09:58.279
Anytime, Brian, you know, we could, we could strip some
2248
02:09:58.359 --> 02:10:00.199
things out in advance. I can, I can argu the
2249
02:10:00.199 --> 02:10:02.039
wheels are spending I can already think of some fun
2250
02:10:02.079 --> 02:10:02.680
we get add with that.
2251
02:10:03.000 --> 02:10:05.279
Oh yeah, and that, and see if we can keep
2252
02:10:05.279 --> 02:10:08.680
the radio stations licenses. That'll that'll be the big one too.
2253
02:10:11.960 --> 02:10:13.920
There may have to be some editing of that show
2254
02:10:14.279 --> 02:10:17.680
as we go along, and especially your guy John up there,
2255
02:10:17.720 --> 02:10:21.840
he knows sometimes it's it's tough with me. That's censor button.
2256
02:10:21.840 --> 02:10:24.239
You got to keep it ready. But either way, America
2257
02:10:24.399 --> 02:10:27.439
View always love our conversations with you guys, and of
2258
02:10:27.479 --> 02:10:31.000

2259
02:10:31.079 --> 02:10:36.000
and hopefully we'll have some shutdown news at next week's show.
2260
02:10:36.720 --> 02:10:38.840
But in the meantime we'll check you guys out tomorrow

2269
02:10:58.640 --> 02:11:01.600
Doster of course heard right here on Florida Man Radio
2270
02:11:02.039 --> 02:11:04.319
every Saturday at twelve noon. We got to take a
2271
02:11:04.399 --> 02:11:06.600
quick break. We'll be right back. This is a Red
2272
02:11:06.640 --> 02:11:10.720
Friday where we are remembering everyone deployed, and that includes
2273
02:11:10.720 --> 02:11:13.479
our ICE agents who are out there doing the tough
2274
02:11:13.479 --> 02:11:15.439
work to help clean up our cities. And it's all
2275
02:11:15.479 --> 02:11:18.520
brought to you by American Charlie Grill and Tavern right
2276
02:11:18.560 --> 02:11:21.560
there on Panama City Beach. We will be right back,
2277
02:11:32.359 --> 02:11:34.199
all right, Welcome back to the Bride Rush Show here
2278
02:11:34.239 --> 02:11:36.600
at Florida Man Radio and of course streaming on Rumble
2279
02:11:36.640 --> 02:11:38.439
dot com and Wimken dot com. And today is a
2280
02:11:38.479 --> 02:11:43.439
Red Friday. We remember everyone deployed, including our ICE agents, which,
2281
02:11:43.520 --> 02:11:46.279
by the way, Apple, I don't know if you've heard
2282
02:11:46.279 --> 02:11:49.840
this one. Apple has decided it's going to block the
2283
02:11:50.479 --> 02:11:53.359
ice block app, which is one of the apps that
2284
02:11:53.399 --> 02:11:57.199
has been used by a lot of the anti ICE
2285
02:11:57.279 --> 02:12:01.439
people to track ice to be able to find out
2286
02:12:01.479 --> 02:12:03.800
where they are in real time so that they can
2287
02:12:03.840 --> 02:12:05.880
protest them and other things that of course, remember the
2288
02:12:06.520 --> 02:12:10.239
shooter down in Texas was also using one of the
2289
02:12:10.279 --> 02:12:14.479
ice tracking apps to be able to find out where
2290
02:12:14.479 --> 02:12:18.279
they were and was able to get up on top
2291
02:12:18.319 --> 02:12:21.399
of the roof and take some potshots at them, you know,
2292
02:12:21.479 --> 02:12:25.000
missing his intended target. Hitting the people that he allegedly
2293
02:12:25.520 --> 02:12:28.359
was supporting. But it's good on Apple to see that
2294
02:12:28.399 --> 02:12:30.119
they've done that. I don't know if Google has jumped
2295
02:12:30.119 --> 02:12:32.439
on it as well, but those are the type of
2296
02:12:32.520 --> 02:12:35.680
apps that are dangerous to society and they probably should
2297
02:12:36.119 --> 02:12:40.239
should really get rid of them, because that's just something
2298
02:12:40.239 --> 02:12:43.600
that is not needed. It really isn't. So something else
2299
02:12:43.640 --> 02:12:46.319
that's going on too is the trust in the media.
2300
02:12:46.439 --> 02:12:48.039
I mean, I know that this is a big shocker
2301
02:12:48.119 --> 02:12:51.640
that the people are not trusting the mainstream media anymore,
2302
02:12:52.239 --> 02:12:54.159
but there's a new Gallup poll that is out that
2303
02:12:54.399 --> 02:12:57.920
shows that the public trust in the news has dropped
2304
02:12:57.920 --> 02:13:01.079
to yet another new low. I mean, I didn't think
2305
02:13:01.079 --> 02:13:03.399
it could get any lower, but apparently it does keep
2306
02:13:03.439 --> 02:13:07.039
getting lower. And after hitting a record lows last year,
2307
02:13:07.720 --> 02:13:11.079
the America's trust in the nation's legacy media has sunk
2308
02:13:11.159 --> 02:13:14.079
to a new level. And the Gallup reported yesterday releasing
2309
02:13:14.119 --> 02:13:17.720
its annual survey of US adults and when it began
2310
02:13:17.880 --> 02:13:21.680
back in nineteen seventy two. Just to give you some perspectives,
2311
02:13:21.680 --> 02:13:24.680
so in the past fifty three years, seven in ten
2312
02:13:24.760 --> 02:13:27.920
adults either had a fair amount fifty percent or a
2313
02:13:27.960 --> 02:13:32.119
great deal eighteen percent of trust in newspapers, television and
2314
02:13:32.199 --> 02:13:36.640
radio to report the news fully, accurately and fairly. Today,
2315
02:13:36.800 --> 02:13:39.319
with the new report that was released yesterday, it is
2316
02:13:39.359 --> 02:13:44.279
once again seven and ten. However, it is seven out
2317
02:13:44.279 --> 02:13:48.439
of ten either have not very much confidence or none
2318
02:13:48.560 --> 02:13:52.920
at all in today's media. According to the new Gallup
2319
02:13:53.039 --> 02:13:56.920
poll on the trust in the media, it's gone away
2320
02:13:57.600 --> 02:14:00.119
and it cracks me up though to watch how how
2321
02:14:00.520 --> 02:14:02.720
the mainstream media, the legacy media all stands back and
2322
02:14:02.720 --> 02:14:05.159
goes and I'm a samit it is money in the
2323
02:14:05.159 --> 02:14:10.279
watch ass. We should bring Joy Reid back in. Read
2324
02:14:10.319 --> 02:14:12.920
the room. That's all I gotta say. Just read the
2325
02:14:13.000 --> 02:14:15.600
room and you would be amazed at what you might
2326
02:14:15.640 --> 02:14:17.600
find out. All right, that's it for us. We got
2327
02:14:17.600 --> 02:14:19.800
to get out of here. Happy Friday, and of course
2328
02:14:19.840 --> 02:14:21.560

with a fiery head talking truth. You can't always stand

fast to show from coast to coast. Got the facts,
5
00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:36.439
but it ain't no boast. Can't give up the change
6
00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:39.079
and give it toast to the man who.
7
00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:42.320
Roasts the moods. Knock it off. It's rust on me.
8
00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:46.759

Me, Bunny ryl care sage, did you mind.

No, don't free Fray? In the saucial Silver Street?
17
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:44.319
Well, hello, good morning, and welcome to the show, Happy
18
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:46.719
Red and Friday. It is a Red Friday today where
19
00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:50.439
we remember everyone deployed, sponsored by our friends in American
20
00:01:50.519 --> 00:01:53.719
Charlie Grill and Tavern. Of course, the best thing about
21
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:57.359
today is that we're finally back in the knock It
22
00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:03.159
Off studio back from our vacations slash Mayo Clinic trip,
23
00:02:04.120 --> 00:02:07.400
even though we've been doing the radio show all week,
24
00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:10.919
which I got to tell you was as much as
25
00:02:10.919 --> 00:02:13.000
I love doing the show, and I do love doing
26
00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:15.240
the show, it was taxing as hell to do the
27
00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:19.039
show this week because we were obviously not in our
28
00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:22.319
regular studio. We were in the remote stuff and didn't
29
00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:24.360
have all the things that we normally had, and it
30
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:27.840
was just awkward. And sometimes I was doing the show
31
00:02:27.879 --> 00:02:31.680
from the couch. Sometimes I had pants on, sometimes I didn't.
32
00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:35.159
It was just it was awkward. Not to mention, we
33
00:02:35.199 --> 00:02:38.319
also did not have our rumble and wimkin audience that
34
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:41.479
we bounce off of throughout the show. So it's good
35
00:02:41.479 --> 00:02:44.000
to see all you guys already chiming in this morning
36
00:02:44.680 --> 00:02:46.439
on the show. But it is good to be back,
37
00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:49.719
it really truly is. The boys, by the way, were
38
00:02:49.759 --> 00:02:55.280
also stupid excited that Daddy was home. As a matter
39
00:02:55.280 --> 00:02:59.280
of fact, I think between last night, when I arrived
40
00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:03.159
back at home until this morning, when I finally woke
41
00:03:03.240 --> 00:03:05.159
up and had to kick Charlie out of the studio,
42
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:08.599
I've gotten more kisses and hugs from him than a
43
00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:11.520
horny teenager on a Friday night date. I mean, it's
44
00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:15.479
just been unbelievable. He kind of missed me. So it
45
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:18.000
was kind of nice to see the rug Rats this
46
00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:21.439
morning and last night, got all my cuddles and everything.
47
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:23.280
They were in the studio right up until about the
48
00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:25.599
beginning and then they're like, oh God, this is the
49
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:27.400
time the dad gets all riled up. It's time for
50
00:03:27.479 --> 00:03:30.319
us to go and left the studio. But we do
51
00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:32.479
have a lot to talk about today. Of course, with
52
00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:34.840
it being Friday, we'll have the guys on from America
53
00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:37.240
in View. They'll be joining us later on in hour
54
00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:38.919
number three to talk about some of the things that
55
00:03:38.919 --> 00:03:42.120
are going on around the state and around the country.
56
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:45.280
And you know, there was actually something that we were
57
00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:48.159
talking about on the show the other day and now
58
00:03:48.199 --> 00:03:49.759
I can't remember what the hell it was, And I
59
00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:51.759
was thinking to myself, oh, we got to talk about
60
00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:54.639
this with the Doster boys coming up on Friday. I
61
00:03:54.680 --> 00:03:56.400
don't know what the hell it was, So we'll figure
62
00:03:56.439 --> 00:03:58.639
it out. Maybe they'll bring it up, but I'll be like,
63
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:01.919
that's what it was. Also joining us on the show
64
00:04:02.120 --> 00:04:05.960
later on this morning, Linda Cope from The Warrior Beach retreat.
65
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:08.879
Their fall retreat is coming up, and we're gonna talk
66
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:11.719
about that coming up in a little bit as well.
67
00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:16.040
But in the meantime, the Left is it is not
68
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:19.680
even meltdown mode that they are in right now. And
69
00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:23.839
Charlie was worried he was adopted by Haitians. He was like, hey,
70
00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:27.199
who is this that's coming in and feeding me? He
71
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:28.839
was a little off by that for a little bit.
72
00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:34.000
But the Democrats, they are not in a meltdown mode.
73
00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:39.720
They are in another level of emotional mode that we
74
00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:42.319
haven't seen from them in a while. And it's all
75
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:46.519
because of Donald Trump, of course. And I gotta say this,
76
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:50.480
Donald Trump has taken his internet trolling to a whole
77
00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:56.160
new level. And it's just funny to watch the response
78
00:04:56.920 --> 00:04:59.680
from the left when you start looking at how they
79
00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:04.319
are responding to the memes. It's not fair Donald jump
80
00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:07.800
as being a big meanie pants. And I love it
81
00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:13.920
because when Hikeem Jeffries came out the other day and
82
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:17.480
he was upset about the sombrero thing. There by the way,
83
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:20.360
they're also calling it racist, which I saw video pointing
84
00:05:20.399 --> 00:05:23.040
this out, and it was actually kind of funny where
85
00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:28.439
they're talking about Okay, so you're you're upset because Donald
86
00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:35.639
Trump put a sombrero on Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer.
87
00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:41.759
You do realize that a sombrero is not racist. If
88
00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:46.519
you are looking at the sombrero being put onto somebody
89
00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:53.199
as being racist, then you're the one who's racist, because
90
00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:58.199
you're the one who thinks that's racist. And it's kind
91
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:00.120
of a valid point because a lot of this stuff
92
00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:02.319
that we always hear from the left with them, that's
93
00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:05.959
some rained since no, it's not racist, it's you being emotional,
94
00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:09.720
whiny brat, and that's exactly what the Democrats are right now.
95
00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:12.959
And Donald Trump has not slowed down. And again, I
96
00:06:12.959 --> 00:06:15.079
don't know who it is that's on his digital team
97
00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:17.519
that is coming up with all of these things, because
98
00:06:17.560 --> 00:06:20.279
I know it's not one hundred percent Donald Trump. I'm
99
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:23.240
sure that there was some smart ass kid that is
100
00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:26.920
on this team that that probably went to mimester President,
101
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:28.879
you want to say something like it us And he
102
00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:32.560
looked at that and said, roll with it, absolutely, roll
103
00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:36.240
with it. And there was another video and I don't
104
00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:39.199
know if you saw this one where Keem Jeffries was
105
00:06:39.240 --> 00:06:41.920
on I think it was CNN or MSNBC or one
106
00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:43.720
of those. I don't really care which one it was,
107
00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:47.079
but he was on there complaining and whining about Donald
108
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:50.279
Trump doing this and it's not fair, it's so bad
109
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:53.279
what he's doing. And then all of a sudden, somebody
110
00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:57.839
the team again took the video and put Donald Trump
111
00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:02.199
in a mariachi band with sombreros and everything. Right behind
112
00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:07.040
came Jeffries doing his thing. It's just hilarious. And then
113
00:07:07.079 --> 00:07:10.680
you get the moment. The moment that came Jeffries decided
114
00:07:10.759 --> 00:07:14.000
he wanted to be a tough guy when he said,
115
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:16.319
the next time I'm in the Oval Office, or when
116
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:19.439
I'm in the Oval Office again, I'm gonna address him
117
00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:24.879
and he could say it to my face. Dude, think
118
00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:28.160
about this for a second. Think about this for one second.
119
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:30.800
And I mentioned this the other day when talking about this,
120
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:34.800
that Donald Trump is the man who sat in front
121
00:07:34.839 --> 00:07:38.519
of the United Nations, the world's leaders, sat there in
122
00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:43.439
front of them and ripped them apart. These are people
123
00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:46.879
who have militaries, these are people who have economies, These
124
00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:51.519
are people who could retaliate, and he slammed them to
125
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:55.600
their face. Do you even remotely think that Donald Trump
126
00:07:55.639 --> 00:07:58.319
won't do it to your face. First off, he's a
127
00:07:58.360 --> 00:08:00.879
New Yorker, and in old school New Yorker at that
128
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:05.879
he will have no problem with tearing you apart to
129
00:08:05.959 --> 00:08:10.560
your face. But it's just not fair. It's not fair
130
00:08:10.600 --> 00:08:14.240
that Donald Trump is making fun of me, you poor
131
00:08:14.279 --> 00:08:17.000
little whiny brat. And Pat, you're right, it was okay
132
00:08:17.040 --> 00:08:19.199
for Kathy Griffin to hold up a severed body head
133
00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:23.480
of Trump, but when you do these memes, it's the
134
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:27.920
worst thing in the world. It's so immature. Yeah, the
135
00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:30.519
one where he threw the mustaches, that was pretty funny too.
136
00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:34.799
Every time you turn around there's another one. And again
137
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:36.559
I don't know who it is. It's on Donald Trump's
138
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:39.679
digital team that's doing these things, but they need a raise,
139
00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:42.200
they need a raise, They need to be praised. But
140
00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:46.399
sadly though, also needs to be hidden, like, don't say
141
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:48.480
who it is, because we know how the left is.
142
00:08:49.039 --> 00:08:51.279
If the left finds out who it is that's actually
143
00:08:51.279 --> 00:08:53.480
doing it, they will go after him or her or
144
00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:56.799
whoever it is that's doing it. And that's a sad
145
00:08:57.279 --> 00:09:01.799
statement of our times too. But it ishilarious because it's
146
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:05.320
just good old poking fun. And maybe it's just the
147
00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:08.840
gen x in me where you know, we find this
148
00:09:08.879 --> 00:09:12.240
stuff to be hilarious because it's just it's all words.
149
00:09:12.960 --> 00:09:15.440
It's words, a little little poking fun. It's not that
150
00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:17.919
big of a deal. You're gonna be okay, You're you're
151
00:09:17.960 --> 00:09:20.919
gonna go to bed tonight, you're gonna wake up tomorrow morning,
152
00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:25.240
and everything is still gonna be fine. But the left,
153
00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:28.159
they can't handle it. They can't handle it. And it's
154
00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:31.240
okay for them to slam on Donald Trump, it's okay
155
00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:34.960
for them to go after Maga people, but when the
156
00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:39.519
favor is returned, it's so bad. You can't do this
157
00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:42.519
to us, which is also kind of the same attitude
158
00:09:42.519 --> 00:09:47.639
that they're taking it like during the shutdown, like they
159
00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:49.720
I don't know, if somebody hang on a second, let
160
00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:56.519
me let me write this down. Maybe this will help.
161
00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:00.679
And if you if you were watching in the video
162
00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:05.480
version of the show, you'll get this. And I will
163
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:14.120
tell you right lights, you lost. That's the bottom line.
164
00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:19.840
You lost. You lost the elections, and when you lose
165
00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:22.480
the elections, you are no longer in power. So therefore
166
00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:26.840
we don't have to bow down to you, which is
167
00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:30.000
exactly the attitude that they're taking. They don't understand why
168
00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:32.960
the Republicans are not bowing down to us and why
169
00:10:32.960 --> 00:10:35.919
they're not doing exactly what we say. This is wrong.
170
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:39.919
You had to listen to us, and you have to
171
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:42.960
do what we want. You can't just do whatever you want.
172
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:46.279
This isn't right. No, this is exactly right. This is
173
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:51.200
how it works. You have to come to us to negotiate.
174
00:10:51.320 --> 00:10:53.399
You have to come to us and say, hey, here's
175
00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:55.679
some things that we would really like, and we're willing
176
00:10:55.720 --> 00:10:57.879
to sacrifice this, this, and this so that we can
177
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:00.519
we can get a little something, because because that's what
178
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:08.120
you did to us, it's just not fair. And I'm
179
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:12.879
again social media, I'm loving this Christy Jackson. This guy,
180
00:11:12.919 --> 00:11:16.399
he's such an idiot. He really truly is posted a
181
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:21.039
photo of Joe Biden. So it's a good looking black
182
00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:23.000
and white photo. I'm gonna give the photos some credit.
183
00:11:23.080 --> 00:11:25.440
It's a good looking photo, a little portrait thing. And
184
00:11:25.480 --> 00:11:30.000
he said America traded competency and decency for chaos and deprivity.
185
00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:34.559
I'll never understand it. Well, you know, here's the thing,
186
00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:37.960
dumb ass, and that's what you are, Chris Jackson. You're
187
00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:42.720
a dumb ass. What America could traded was we traded
188
00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:47.399
somebody to come in and remodel the kitchen because somebody
189
00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:51.639
came in and splashed it with rainbows and DEI and
190
00:11:51.679 --> 00:11:54.679
all this other bs and made it so that it's
191
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:58.480
so expensive to open up the refrigerator. And we said, no,
192
00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:00.840
we don't like this. We want to renovate the kitchen.
193
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:04.320
And Donald Trump came in to renovate the kitchen. And
194
00:12:04.360 --> 00:12:06.559
in order to renovate the kitchen, one of the things
195
00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:09.600
you have to do is tear out the crap that
196
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:12.200
was put in there initially. And that's what we have
197
00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:15.399
seen Donald Trump do. And look, I think most of
198
00:12:15.480 --> 00:12:20.240
us understand that in order to fix the problems, it's
199
00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:22.360
gonna get a little bit worse because you have to
200
00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:25.639
do the demo work first, and that's what Donald Trump
201
00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:30.360
has been doing. And now that the shutdown has happened, Oh,
202
00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:34.200
there's a full on construction demolition team that is now
203
00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:36.039
standing by and we're gonna get into that in just
204
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:38.840
a second, but first we got to take a quick break.
205
00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:41.000
We'll be right back. This is the Brian Russ Show.
206
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:42.840
Do I't Forget? Today is a Red Friday where we
207
00:12:42.919 --> 00:12:44.799
are brought to you by Oh wait, a second, there's
208
00:12:44.799 --> 00:12:48.519
another one that just popped up. Trump just posted this
209
00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:52.000
incredibly weird AI video of himself and JD. Vance in
210
00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:55.399
a band and Russ Vought as the Grim Reaper. This
211
00:12:55.480 --> 00:12:57.600
is what the president is doing while the government is
212
00:12:57.600 --> 00:13:00.759
shut down. We're so screwed. Oh, Harry sis On shut up.
213
00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:06.039
Oh that's a great one. That is great. I'm gonna
214
00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:07.360
have to listen to that one in the break just
215
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:09.320
to see what that one's all about. Anyhow, we are
216
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:14.240
Read Friday, remembering everyone deployed, including our Ice agents that
217
00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:16.480
are deployed around the country, in our National Guard that
218
00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:18.679
is also out there doing their thing, and especially now
219
00:13:19.000 --> 00:13:21.919
that we are in the shutdown and the potential that
220
00:13:21.960 --> 00:13:24.480
they may not get paid, we got to remember them,
221
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:26.639
thank them for what they are doing. And of course,
222
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:28.799
brought to you by our friends at American Charlie Grill
223
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:31.080
and Tavern right there on Panama City Beach. Hang on,
224
00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:47.159
we will be right back. Good morning, all right, welcome

226
00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:53.000

227
00:13:53.039 --> 00:13:54.840

00:13:57.519 --> 00:14:00.320
the weekend that means football and they get plenty of
230
00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:02.399
TVs for you to go watch the games as well.
231
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:05.600
Right there at American Charlie, Welcome back to the show.
232
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:07.840
Thanks for waking up with us today. Do appreciate it.
233
00:14:08.200 --> 00:14:12.120
Thanks for watching us today on Rumbleandwimken dot Com. Back
234
00:14:12.159 --> 00:14:14.600
to that for those of you that have missed that
235
00:14:14.759 --> 00:14:17.960
torture of having to watch this hot mess in the morning,
236
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:20.919
there it is, there you go. It is good to
237
00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:26.120
be back though from the vacation slash Mayo trip visits.
238
00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:28.279
And I know a lot of people have been asking
239
00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:31.159
me about the visit because I had made some posts,
240
00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:33.919
you know, just kind of updating as we went along,
241
00:14:34.440 --> 00:14:36.840
and it looks a little bit like this. Just to
242
00:14:36.840 --> 00:14:41.039
give you a quick update, I am once again one
243
00:14:41.039 --> 00:14:45.399
of the male clinics most boring patients. Which I know
244
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:48.720
that seems like a contradiction to say me and boring
245
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:52.120
at the same time, but that is that is kind
246
00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:55.279
of the case. All of my blood work, you know,
247
00:14:55.360 --> 00:14:58.480
looked great, the kidney function looked great. Still ready to
248
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:01.919
hear a couple of tests, but they're pretty confident that
249
00:15:01.960 --> 00:15:04.679
everything is going to be pretty okay. I do have
250
00:15:04.720 --> 00:15:06.399
to go back to the Mail Clinic though, for some
251
00:15:06.519 --> 00:15:09.399
other things, because that's one of the problems when you
252
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:12.840
have when when you get older and with a kidney transplant,
253
00:15:12.879 --> 00:15:16.159
sometimes it does cause other issues. But overall, I'm still
254
00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:20.480
pretty damn healthy and the checkup went great, so that
255
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:23.279
is a good thing. I just it wears me out, though,
256
00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:27.720
And anybody that has gone through these these annual checkups
257
00:15:27.720 --> 00:15:29.279
that you do at the Mayo Clinic, you know that.
258
00:15:30.120 --> 00:15:32.679
And it usually doesn't matter what it is that you're doing,
259
00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:38.120
whether you're going in for a cancer update or you know,
260
00:15:38.159 --> 00:15:40.559
a transplant update or whatever it might be. When they
261
00:15:40.559 --> 00:15:42.639
start running all these tests on you to check everything,
262
00:15:42.720 --> 00:15:48.039
it's exhausting, it really truly is. So yeah, it's good
263
00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:50.039
to finally be home. I actually have a little bit
264
00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:52.559
of energy today, mostly because I'm also able to drink
265
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:55.000
some knock it off coffee. I did not bring any
266
00:15:55.000 --> 00:15:57.240
of it with me because you know, in the hotels
267
00:15:57.279 --> 00:15:59.320
that you don't really have a good coffee maker, so
268
00:15:59.679 --> 00:16:01.279
I was kind of forced to drink some of that
269
00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:04.200
hotel coffee. And let me tell you, that crap is
270
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:07.320
just I don't I don't know it's they call it
271
00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:10.600
rainforest blend or something, and it literally tastes like you're
272
00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:14.159
scraping the ground off of the rainforest. It's just the
273
00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:18.600
nastiest stuff. So and that's right, Dean. A positive attitude
274
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:21.000
and trusting God goes a long way. And you know
275
00:16:21.080 --> 00:16:23.799
what I have, I've I've preached that for a long
276
00:16:23.840 --> 00:16:27.879
time when it comes to you know, illnesses, and and look,
277
00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:30.600
I have dealt with a lot of a lot of
278
00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:34.240
health issues for a long time, specifically with the kidney.
279
00:16:34.720 --> 00:16:38.440
Uh and uh, you know, having that positive attitude does
280
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:40.559
really truly help. And that was actually one of the
281
00:16:40.559 --> 00:16:44.080
things that I was having a conversation with with some
282
00:16:44.120 --> 00:16:47.399
of the crew at the Mayo Clinic the other day
283
00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:51.559
because they were getting it ready, getting you ready to
284
00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:56.240
do the the the biopsy on the kidney, which was
285
00:16:56.279 --> 00:16:58.559
the most intense thing that I actually had to do
286
00:16:58.600 --> 00:17:02.320
the entire time that I was there. And uh, you know,
287
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:05.160
I'm I'm just I'm generally kind of a goofy guy anyhow,
288
00:17:05.160 --> 00:17:07.799
and I'm always got a pretty positive attitude. And when
289
00:17:07.799 --> 00:17:10.720
I don't, you know that I'm probably really pissed off
290
00:17:10.759 --> 00:17:13.440
about something and it's probably a time to head the
291
00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:16.279
other direction and avoid me for a little bit. But
292
00:17:16.400 --> 00:17:18.839
we were having the conversation about it, and uh, you know,
293
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:21.680
the the nurse that was setting everything up, she looked
294
00:17:21.680 --> 00:17:23.279
at me and she's like, you know, it really is
295
00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:25.279
great to actually have somebody with such a great attitude,
296
00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:28.359
because she was even telling me, she's like, you can
297
00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:32.240
tell the people that always come through that are doing
298
00:17:32.319 --> 00:17:35.480
the best, even if even if things aren't the greatest,
299
00:17:35.480 --> 00:17:37.519
but they're still doing the best. Are the ones with
300
00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:40.640
the best attitudes, you know, the ones that are not
301
00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:45.160
coming in all fearful and scared and and everything else.
302
00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:48.680
And when you're just in there to to uh, you know,
303
00:17:49.240 --> 00:17:51.599
be positive about it and know that that things are
304
00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:53.559
pretty good, it, it goes a long way. And I
305
00:17:53.880 --> 00:17:58.559
can't preach that enough for anybody who is who is
306
00:17:58.640 --> 00:18:02.240
ill with anything, whether it be you know, a cancer
307
00:18:02.359 --> 00:18:06.559
diagnosis or you know, a transplant diagnosis or whatever it
308
00:18:06.640 --> 00:18:11.960
might be, having a positive attitude takes you so far.
309
00:18:12.720 --> 00:18:14.839
And the crew there at the Mail clinic as we
310
00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:17.279
were talking about it, they agreed one hundred percent. They said,
311
00:18:17.640 --> 00:18:19.680
you know, having that positive attitude is a good thing,
312
00:18:19.720 --> 00:18:22.799
So you really got to do that. Just keep it positive.
313
00:18:23.400 --> 00:18:26.240
Which I know nowadays is tough to do. With all
314
00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:28.839
the stuff that's going on in our world, it is
315
00:18:28.920 --> 00:18:31.640
hard to have a positive attitude, like even here in
316
00:18:31.640 --> 00:18:33.759
the Knackadoff studio. As much as I love being in
317
00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:36.519
the Knockadoff studio, I have to admit it is time
318
00:18:36.559 --> 00:18:39.119
for a new chair because this chair is the most
319
00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:42.720
uncomfortable thing that I've sat on in a while. And
320
00:18:42.759 --> 00:18:46.119
I'm just I don't know, it's time for this chair
321
00:18:46.200 --> 00:18:48.279
to go. But I'm trying to be positive because look,
322
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:52.039
I'm back in the Knockodoff studio. I have our rumble
323
00:18:52.079 --> 00:18:54.319
and whim can feedback up again. I've got all the
324
00:18:54.359 --> 00:18:57.599
equipment that I need. I've got my knock it off
325
00:18:57.599 --> 00:19:00.559
coffee that I could drink. I've gone Charlie and Lucky
326
00:19:00.640 --> 00:19:07.039
running around. Life is good. So having a little bit
327
00:19:07.039 --> 00:19:08.880
of a positive attitude, even though there are some things
328
00:19:08.920 --> 00:19:11.920
in life that are a little stressful, it does help
329
00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:15.759
a lot. So Yeah, anyhow, what else we got to
330
00:19:15.799 --> 00:19:17.559
talk about today? We got so much to talk about.
331
00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:19.279
But now that I've rambled on about stuff and took
332
00:19:19.319 --> 00:19:22.200
up this entire segment, I don't really have enough time
333
00:19:22.240 --> 00:19:24.880
to dive into anything and don't have enough time to
334
00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:28.480
not dive into something because I boo booed, because we've
335
00:19:28.519 --> 00:19:31.799
got our hard break coming up here at the bottom
336
00:19:31.839 --> 00:19:35.720
of the hour. But the shutdown, this is becoming more
337
00:19:35.720 --> 00:19:39.079
and more entertaining every moment, and we're gonna talk about
338
00:19:39.079 --> 00:19:41.240
it coming up in just a little bit. What's that
339
00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:44.240
the X chair? See the problem with the X chair.
340
00:19:44.279 --> 00:19:47.759
The X chair is low, and the studio is actually
341
00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:50.640
it's not a low desk, it's like not in normal height.
342
00:19:50.720 --> 00:19:53.799
The desk in the studio is about was that about
343
00:19:53.839 --> 00:19:58.119
three feet high, so it's like a standard TV studio,
344
00:19:58.240 --> 00:20:02.519
radio studio desk in the height side. So it's gonna
345
00:20:02.519 --> 00:20:05.079
be difficult to find that a chair that really truly fits.
346
00:20:05.079 --> 00:20:06.839
And this thing squeaks. I don't know if you ever
347
00:20:06.880 --> 00:20:10.079
hear it on the microphone or not, but it squeaks
348
00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:12.359
like crazy. And the fact that it's uncomfortable and I
349
00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:17.079
keep squirming in the chair because it's just uncomfy. You know,
350
00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:20.079
it's just it's one of these things. But look, positive attitude,
351
00:20:20.119 --> 00:20:21.799
even though there's one thing that just kind of tears
352
00:20:21.799 --> 00:20:26.160
it apart here. Positive attitude. But yeah, the shutdown, this
353
00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:28.480
is becoming more and more entertaining. We're gonna talk about
354
00:20:28.519 --> 00:20:32.960
that coming up after the break, because the Left screwed up.
355
00:20:33.880 --> 00:20:36.519
They screwed up big time when it came to allowing
356
00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:40.839
this whole shutdown to even happen. So we're gonna talk
357
00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:42.480
about that coming up in a couple of minutes. So
358
00:20:42.519 --> 00:20:44.599
for again, you could also check out the show at
359
00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:46.759
the Brian Rushshow dot com. We finally got the new
360
00:20:46.799 --> 00:20:49.720
website up and running, providing that GoDaddy doesn't f with
361
00:20:49.759 --> 00:20:52.680
it anymore, because if they do, I'm probably going to jail.
362
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:55.119
I'm just saying, but go check that out. We got
363
00:20:55.119 --> 00:20:56.559
to take a quick break though for a bottom of
364
00:20:56.559 --> 00:21:09.480
the hour. We'll be right back. Good morning, all right,
365
00:21:09.559 --> 00:21:11.240
welcome back to the Brian Rush Show here at our
366
00:21:11.279 --> 00:21:14.200
Red Friday. Happy Friday to you. We finally made it
367
00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:19.200
to that big weekend road Gray, Good morning to you.
368
00:21:19.440 --> 00:21:22.839
A good point. The Dems should get Kamala to explain
369
00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:26.000
why they won't agree on the spending plan. Probably has
370
00:21:26.039 --> 00:21:28.440
something to do with the electric yellow school buses. Can
371
00:21:28.480 --> 00:21:32.039
you imagine? Can you imagine Kamala Harris having to get
372
00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:37.799
out and explain the reason for the shutdown. It would
373
00:21:37.799 --> 00:21:39.279
actually be kind of funny.
374
00:21:40.079 --> 00:21:40.279
Is it?
375
00:21:41.400 --> 00:21:47.039
What happened was is okay, everybody, listen, listen, listen up.
376
00:21:47.079 --> 00:21:51.880
It's Kamala has And and I'm gonna spend see you
377
00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:56.039
the monies and the monies which with the with the
378
00:21:56.119 --> 00:21:59.079
dollars and with the in the dollars that go in
379
00:21:59.440 --> 00:22:00.640
your your purse.
380
00:22:02.880 --> 00:22:06.480
I got a purse. What happened was is that.
381
00:22:07.119 --> 00:22:11.640
You see, we wanted to put more dollars in somebody
382
00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:16.680
else's bust, and the Republicans said, no, you have to
383
00:22:16.720 --> 00:22:19.240
pay your bar tab before you can leave. I don't
384
00:22:19.279 --> 00:22:21.160
know why this's got a pat of barn tab all
385
00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:21.559
the time.
386
00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:27.440
It would be hilarious to have Kamala Harris actually do
387
00:22:27.599 --> 00:22:32.920
that and ap it would be pretty funny. If I
388
00:22:32.920 --> 00:22:35.960
did have a sombrero. I don't have one, and if
389
00:22:35.960 --> 00:22:37.759
I did, I would wear one in casey, you're right,
390
00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:40.240
with all the Diegos that I consume, I should have
391
00:22:40.640 --> 00:22:42.640
I should have one, and I don't know why you don't.
392
00:22:43.799 --> 00:22:45.799
But you know what, actually, now that I think about it,
393
00:22:46.000 --> 00:22:49.000
with all the Diegos that I consume, I should also
394
00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:52.519
have a Diego's T shirt. I'm just I'm throwing that
395
00:22:52.519 --> 00:22:56.079
out there into the wind. I don't I do have
396
00:22:56.160 --> 00:22:58.960
my uh what was that the T shirt that I got,
397
00:22:59.039 --> 00:23:06.039
the the Barrito Benditto, the Barrito Benditto T shirt. Yeah. Anyhow,
398
00:23:06.599 --> 00:23:11.480
it would be pretty funny though, to have Kabala Harris explaining, uh,
399
00:23:11.599 --> 00:23:17.960
the the the budget cuts, the shutdown because she couldn't
400
00:23:17.960 --> 00:23:20.400
get through it. She couldn't get through, especially if the
401
00:23:20.440 --> 00:23:24.000
teleprompter stopped, or like even if if Joe Biden had
402
00:23:24.000 --> 00:23:29.119
to do it. Well, you see, when I was a kid,
403
00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:34.440
I'm not kidding. This is not hyperbole here, no joke.
404
00:23:34.640 --> 00:23:38.880
When I was a kid, my dad uh bless his heart,
405
00:23:39.119 --> 00:23:43.519
uh right, the rest of his soul with the windshield
406
00:23:43.880 --> 00:23:47.759
and then with the cancer. It would be able to
407
00:23:47.799 --> 00:23:50.440
figure it out. But the bottom line is, though, when
408
00:23:50.440 --> 00:23:54.200
it comes to the shutdown, the Democrats, they got caught
409
00:23:54.240 --> 00:23:56.440
in their lie and they didn't even realize it. And
410
00:23:56.519 --> 00:23:58.839
they still don't even really truly realize that they've been
411
00:23:58.839 --> 00:24:03.599
caught in their lie because they're trying to do the
412
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:08.039
whole healthcare thing even though that's where their lie is.
413
00:24:09.400 --> 00:24:11.960
They wanted to add another one point five trillion dollars
414
00:24:12.039 --> 00:24:16.359
in spending in this fiscal year, one point five trillion
415
00:24:16.400 --> 00:24:21.119
dollars an addition to what we're already spending. I mean,
416
00:24:23.039 --> 00:24:25.680
just the average. I mean, I think even Kamala Harris
417
00:24:25.759 --> 00:24:28.279
in one of her drunken stupors might even be able
418
00:24:28.519 --> 00:24:31.680
to sit there and reasoningly go, hey, wait a second.
419
00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:35.119
Didn't for like the past seven months, didn't we go
420
00:24:35.200 --> 00:24:38.240
through this doze thing where they exposed all of the
421
00:24:38.559 --> 00:24:41.839
waste and the fraud and abuse. Would it probably not
422
00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:44.880
be a good idea for us to turn around and say, hey,
423
00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:47.640
even though we were given a roadmap and a blueprint
424
00:24:47.640 --> 00:24:49.680
on how to do all these cuts, would it be
425
00:24:49.839 --> 00:24:52.000
a bad idea to say, hey, let's add another one
426
00:24:52.039 --> 00:24:56.599
point five trillion dollars to the spending. But they did
427
00:24:56.599 --> 00:24:58.920
it anyhow, And then on top of it, the argument
428
00:24:59.000 --> 00:25:02.359
about the healthcare, and of course they're not doing the
429
00:25:02.480 --> 00:25:07.039
argument correctly with accuracy and not lying. They got to
430
00:25:07.160 --> 00:25:12.160
use fear, you're going to lose your health care. You
431
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:15.480
know what, those of us that work in the private industry,
432
00:25:15.720 --> 00:25:19.119
we've not lost our healthcare. We're okay, everything is fine,
433
00:25:19.200 --> 00:25:25.160
you're good, all right, cool, We're all good. The only
434
00:25:25.200 --> 00:25:28.839
people that are really losing their healthcare in the cuts
435
00:25:28.880 --> 00:25:31.599
that were proposed in the big beautiful bill are the
436
00:25:32.960 --> 00:25:36.640
couple of million illegals that were on it and the
437
00:25:36.680 --> 00:25:40.240
able bodied workers. They're not going after mom and dad
438
00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:42.440
and grandma and grandpa and cutting them off. They're not
439
00:25:42.480 --> 00:25:46.119
going after the low income single mother who really needs it.
440
00:25:46.240 --> 00:25:47.920
That's not who they're going after, but that's what they
441
00:25:47.960 --> 00:25:51.400
make it out to be. And of course, the other
442
00:25:51.440 --> 00:25:56.240
thing when it comes to the healthcare situation and jd
443
00:25:56.359 --> 00:26:01.799
Ern JD Hakeem, Jeffries, Timu Obama, he's getting busted in
444
00:26:01.880 --> 00:26:04.079
his lie all the time, and so is it Chuck Schumer.
445
00:26:04.119 --> 00:26:06.319
Because the thing that they keep saying is that there's
446
00:26:06.319 --> 00:26:09.559
not a single dime, not one dime, not one dime
447
00:26:09.559 --> 00:26:13.640
in federal money is going to the health insurance, remember words,
448
00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:18.440
the health insurance of illegals, which we know is none
449
00:26:18.480 --> 00:26:21.400
true because there was at least one point five ish
450
00:26:21.640 --> 00:26:25.440
maybe a little bit more illegals that were on Medicaid
451
00:26:26.079 --> 00:26:29.880
by the way, that's health insurance. So yes, there was
452
00:26:30.079 --> 00:26:33.880
some dollars in dimes going to the illegals with that,
453
00:26:34.480 --> 00:26:38.319
but that is not the area that the illegals are
454
00:26:38.359 --> 00:26:42.480
getting the free health insurance. The area that they are
455
00:26:42.480 --> 00:26:44.200
getting the free health insurance. And this is where they
456
00:26:44.279 --> 00:26:48.480
keep lying to everybody, is that there are subsidies that
457
00:26:48.519 --> 00:26:51.640
are given out to hospitals. And remember this is the
458
00:26:51.680 --> 00:26:54.039
other thing. Oh my god, all these hospitals are going
459
00:26:54.119 --> 00:26:56.559
to close down, and it's gonna be the worst thing.
460
00:26:56.599 --> 00:26:59.400
And they're shutting down, and oh my god, the Republicans
461
00:26:59.400 --> 00:27:04.519
are taken away your health care and your hospitals, the
462
00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:08.240
subsidies that we're going to these hospitals specifically to pay
463
00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:11.519
for the illegals who have had just walked into the
464
00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:18.519
emergency room and required healthcare. That's what they're doing. They're
465
00:27:18.599 --> 00:27:21.480
basically saying, we're not going to pay for these people
466
00:27:21.519 --> 00:27:26.039
to get health insurance or health coverage. Go home, go
467
00:27:26.119 --> 00:27:28.839
to where you're from. Stop living off of our dime.
468
00:27:29.680 --> 00:27:32.319
And of course the Democrats have been completely wrong about that.
469
00:27:32.400 --> 00:27:35.480
And of course King Jeffries trying to get out there
470
00:27:35.559 --> 00:27:37.839
and and do his stuff without Donald Trump and putting
471
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:41.559
a sombrero on him and playing the mariachi band in
472
00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:44.960
the background. And actually, you know what, it seems wrong
473
00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:49.240
to be even to be talking about Hakeem Jeffries without
474
00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:51.680
the proper stuff. So hang on with a second year.
475
00:27:52.359 --> 00:27:58.000
We got to do this. If we're going to talk
476
00:27:58.039 --> 00:28:08.759
about Hakim Jeffries, let's do it right there we go, Yeah, oh,
477
00:28:08.799 --> 00:28:10.519
this is bad news that I'm back in the studio
478
00:28:10.720 --> 00:28:15.200
anyhow So, Hakim Jeffries now kind of contradicting some of
479
00:28:15.240 --> 00:28:18.079
his fellow Democrats too when he claims that the government
480
00:28:18.119 --> 00:28:23.160
shutdown is not over giving healthcare to the illegals. He's
481
00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:25.720
been taken to every place that somebody would put him
482
00:28:25.720 --> 00:28:29.440
on camera to talk about it, and Jeffries told ABC's
483
00:28:29.480 --> 00:28:32.039
Good Morning America, the federal law prohibits the use of
484
00:28:32.160 --> 00:28:37.160
Medicaid and Medicare and the Children's Health Insurance Program and
485
00:28:37.319 --> 00:28:41.480
the Affordable Care Act to provide health insurance in any way,
486
00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:45.000
shape or form to undocumented immigrants, period, full stop. That's
487
00:28:45.039 --> 00:28:50.480
the law, and Democraocrats aren't trying to change that now.
488
00:28:52.319 --> 00:28:58.480
He's right, However, explain the one and a half plus
489
00:28:58.680 --> 00:29:04.240
million illegal that we're on Medicaid and medicare. Explain that
490
00:29:04.319 --> 00:29:10.039
one period, full stop. That's the law. How is it
491
00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:15.119
that they're able to get it? And just because you're
492
00:29:15.160 --> 00:29:18.799
saying that they are not allowed to have the insurance
493
00:29:19.680 --> 00:29:22.559
doesn't mean we're not still spending money on the healthcare
494
00:29:22.920 --> 00:29:26.359
of the illegals, and that is what we're doing, and
495
00:29:26.400 --> 00:29:30.440
they don't see it, they don't understand it, and we're
496
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:35.039
spending a lot of money on them. Now I am
497
00:29:35.119 --> 00:29:41.839
I am totally okay with with the Americans who maybe
498
00:29:41.880 --> 00:29:46.119
need help, because look, there are times when when things
499
00:29:46.160 --> 00:29:49.680
happen to American citizens. And I'm not talking about people
500
00:29:49.680 --> 00:29:52.400
that are under the protective status. I'm not talking about
501
00:29:52.400 --> 00:29:56.440
the the the visa holders or anything. I'm talking about
502
00:29:56.559 --> 00:30:00.839
the American citizens. Some of them they need help. And
503
00:30:01.240 --> 00:30:05.519
when you have a horrible health situation or your employment
504
00:30:05.559 --> 00:30:08.079
goes away, your income is reduced to the point where
505
00:30:08.079 --> 00:30:10.440
you can't afford your healthcare. And believe me, I've been there.
506
00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:15.279
I've been there where that has happened. So I understand.
507
00:30:16.359 --> 00:30:20.119
Then let's help out our fellow Americans in their time
508
00:30:20.160 --> 00:30:24.759
of need. When you are somebody who has cancer and
509
00:30:24.799 --> 00:30:29.359
you can't work and you can't work to get your insurance,
510
00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:32.799
we should be helping them out. But helping out just
511
00:30:32.960 --> 00:30:35.920
as somebody who came across our border illegally breaking our laws.
512
00:30:36.480 --> 00:30:39.839
Even if you only broke the one law of crossing
513
00:30:39.839 --> 00:30:43.039
the border and coming in here, you're still here illegally.
514
00:30:43.599 --> 00:30:46.680
Even if you have been a productive part of society
515
00:30:47.039 --> 00:30:51.160
and all the other stuff, you're still here illegally. Just
516
00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:53.920
because you broke into the front door of my house
517
00:30:53.960 --> 00:30:56.119
and you're now sitting on my couch doesn't mean that
518
00:30:56.160 --> 00:30:58.759
I need to be feeding you dinner because you cleaned
519
00:30:58.839 --> 00:31:03.319
up the floor. I don't need to be taken care
520
00:31:03.359 --> 00:31:08.720
of you. You broke into my house, get out, knock
521
00:31:08.799 --> 00:31:10.559
on the door, ask me if you can come in,
522
00:31:11.440 --> 00:31:12.920
Ask me if you can come in, and if I
523
00:31:12.960 --> 00:31:14.920
can make some dinner for you, and I'll make that
524
00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:18.440
decision of yes or no. That's not how it's working
525
00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:23.160
with these illegals. And and again, the the Democrats in
526
00:31:23.200 --> 00:31:26.440
full beltown mode over all of this, and they're trying
527
00:31:26.519 --> 00:31:30.440
their hardest to say that the immigrants are not getting
528
00:31:30.680 --> 00:31:34.039
the illegal immigrants or the undocumented immigrants. I'm sorry, you've
529
00:31:34.039 --> 00:31:36.359
got to get that right. Are we still using what
530
00:31:36.400 --> 00:31:38.160
was that other word that they had for a while.
531
00:31:38.799 --> 00:31:41.079
I can't keep up with their their phrases all the time.
532
00:31:41.400 --> 00:31:44.079
The what was it?
533
00:31:44.079 --> 00:31:44.480
It was?
534
00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:49.319
Uh newcomers, remember that one? What a dumb phrase that was.
535
00:31:50.599 --> 00:31:54.519
But the illegal aliens? You can't call people illegal, Yes,
536
00:31:54.599 --> 00:31:56.480
we can and we're doing it. So get over it
537
00:31:58.599 --> 00:32:01.480
with the fact that they are here. This is what
538
00:32:01.519 --> 00:32:04.200
the what the the left wants. And think about the
539
00:32:04.759 --> 00:32:08.119
hundreds of billions of dollars that we have already spent
540
00:32:08.200 --> 00:32:14.240
on illegals and what it's doing to the the leftist communities.
541
00:32:14.519 --> 00:32:17.920
And that's the other thing. We in the that live
542
00:32:18.000 --> 00:32:21.400
in the the blue areas, the blue run cities, sure
543
00:32:21.480 --> 00:32:23.240
we have them. I mean, look, there was just some
544
00:32:23.359 --> 00:32:27.039
bust the other day again of some illegals here in
545
00:32:27.519 --> 00:32:30.519
Bay County, Florida. And you know, Bay County, Florida and
546
00:32:30.680 --> 00:32:34.640
the surrounding area. We are very very much so Republican,
547
00:32:34.720 --> 00:32:38.720
sixty seventy percent Republican. But we yeah, we've had some
548
00:32:38.759 --> 00:32:41.920
illegals here, but we don't have the crime, the issues,
549
00:32:42.279 --> 00:32:45.279
and everything else that that some of the blue areas have.
550
00:32:46.000 --> 00:32:48.079
And again, Donald Trump is just going in and cleaning
551
00:32:48.160 --> 00:32:51.200
up the blue areas. He's not going after the citizens,
552
00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:55.960
the hardworking Americans whose taxpayer dollars are going to all
553
00:32:56.000 --> 00:33:00.359
this stuff, The hard working American citizens whose hall are
554
00:33:00.359 --> 00:33:04.079
being broken into, businesses are being ravaged, and their children
555
00:33:04.119 --> 00:33:08.240
are being murdered and daughters and wives being raped. We're
556
00:33:08.240 --> 00:33:10.759
not seeing that in the red cities. We're only seeing
557
00:33:10.759 --> 00:33:12.759
that in the blue cities. And Donald Trump is trying
558
00:33:12.759 --> 00:33:15.759
to help that, and the left like is completely opposed
559
00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:19.839
to it. They just, oh, man, it's so mean what
560
00:33:19.880 --> 00:33:22.319
you're doing to the illegals. What do you mean is mean?
561
00:33:22.359 --> 00:33:25.400
What we're doing to the illegals? What about the young
562
00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:28.920
woman who'd been murdered? How is that not mean? How
563
00:33:28.920 --> 00:33:31.559
about grandma who's trying to go to the grocery store,
564
00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:33.640
go play bingo or whatever it is that she's going
565
00:33:33.680 --> 00:33:35.720
off to do, and she gets to living crap kicked
566
00:33:35.720 --> 00:33:37.720
out of her in the subway by an illegal immigrant.
567
00:33:39.160 --> 00:33:41.960
What about Dad who's on his way into the office
568
00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:44.400
to work a hard day's work so that he can
569
00:33:44.440 --> 00:33:47.160
come home and provide for his family, and some piece
570
00:33:47.200 --> 00:33:50.319
of crap comes up and carjacks's car and runs away
571
00:33:50.359 --> 00:33:53.559
with it. Or better yeah, carjacks the car and shoots
572
00:33:53.680 --> 00:33:59.359
kills dad. Where's the outrage about that? And they don't
573
00:33:59.400 --> 00:34:03.799
get upset up about it, And instead the left, the
574
00:34:03.880 --> 00:34:07.400
politicians are jumping on this whole health care thing because sure,
575
00:34:07.519 --> 00:34:09.719
it can be scary if you don't have health insurance
576
00:34:09.719 --> 00:34:11.880
and you need it, But it's also kind of a
577
00:34:12.360 --> 00:34:15.960
it's kind of a false argument because look, the reality
578
00:34:16.039 --> 00:34:20.519
is that most of Americans are healthy and don't need
579
00:34:20.800 --> 00:34:25.000
the regular health insurance and don't need to be going
580
00:34:25.039 --> 00:34:27.199
to the doctor all the time. So it's still a
581
00:34:27.239 --> 00:34:29.639
small portion of the population that they're kind of fearing with.
582
00:34:32.039 --> 00:34:34.800
But let's talk about the real problems that are out there,
583
00:34:34.840 --> 00:34:39.239
and they're not doing it. However, now with this shutdown
584
00:34:39.519 --> 00:34:42.440
that the Democrats are trying to say is over healthcare
585
00:34:42.519 --> 00:34:45.119
and trying to make sure that health care for everybody.
586
00:34:45.519 --> 00:34:47.719
We had to get health care for everybody. That's what
587
00:34:47.760 --> 00:34:50.599
Maxine Waters said when she was approached by a reporter
588
00:34:51.000 --> 00:34:55.199
who approached her about saying, Hey, you guys are taking
589
00:34:55.199 --> 00:34:57.800
care of the illegals. No, we're not, stop saying that
590
00:34:57.840 --> 00:35:01.679
you're a horrible reporter. We just want healthcare for everybody. See,
591
00:35:01.719 --> 00:35:06.400
it's all in the words that they pick. But now
592
00:35:06.440 --> 00:35:10.639
the budgets with the shutdown, and I don't have enough
593
00:35:10.639 --> 00:35:12.320
time to dive into this, but we're going to in
594
00:35:12.320 --> 00:35:16.480
a little bit with Russ Vaughant now teaming up with
595
00:35:16.519 --> 00:35:19.519
Donald Trump to go in and do the stuff that
596
00:35:19.599 --> 00:35:24.599
the Democrats completely did not think about. They completely did
597
00:35:24.599 --> 00:35:29.119
not think about the fact that once Donald Trump is
598
00:35:29.159 --> 00:35:32.599
in the shutdown mode, he has the power and the
599
00:35:32.679 --> 00:35:40.199
authority to cut programs, spending and personnel. So for the
600
00:35:40.280 --> 00:35:42.920
very few people in the country that are being affected
601
00:35:42.920 --> 00:35:46.840
by the the health insurancey illegals, now you're going to
602
00:35:46.920 --> 00:35:54.760
have programs, departments, people, budgets eliminated. Was it worth it, dems,
603
00:35:55.280 --> 00:35:58.840
Because now in a very short period of time, you're
604
00:35:58.880 --> 00:36:01.199
going to realize how bad of an idea that was.
605
00:36:01.800 --> 00:36:03.239
All right, we got to take a quick break. It
606
00:36:03.280 --> 00:36:05.480
is a Red Friday where we remember everyone deployed, including
607
00:36:05.519 --> 00:36:07.320
all of our ice agents that are out to try
608
00:36:07.400 --> 00:36:10.840
to save this country and make this country a better
609
00:36:10.880 --> 00:36:13.719
place again. We ken brought to you by our friends
610
00:36:13.719 --> 00:36:17.000
at America Charlie Grilla Tavern right there on Panama City Beach.
611
00:36:17.280 --> 00:36:19.719
Next time you're in town, head on over and check
612
00:36:19.719 --> 00:36:21.599
out their new menu, their new extended hours, and of
613
00:36:21.639 --> 00:36:24.039
course this weekend with all the football, go check out
614
00:36:24.039 --> 00:36:39.480
some of the games. We'll be right back. All right,
615
00:36:39.519 --> 00:36:41.639
Welcome back to the Brian Rush Show here on Florida
616
00:36:41.639 --> 00:36:46.079
Man Radio Network, also streaming on Rumble and Wimken. Thanks
617
00:36:46.079 --> 00:36:48.159
so much for getting your day started. With US Gavin
618
00:36:48.159 --> 00:36:52.559
Newsom out to remind us about the shutdowns. October one,
619
00:36:52.719 --> 00:36:57.840
twenty twenty five, President Trump, shutdown December twenty second, twenty eighteen,
620
00:36:57.920 --> 00:37:03.280
President Trump. January two. It's twenty eighteen, President Trump. Almost like,
621
00:37:03.400 --> 00:37:05.719
there's a pattern here, and you know what there is?
622
00:37:06.719 --> 00:37:09.920
There is a pattern here. There is a pattern here
623
00:37:10.079 --> 00:37:15.119
where the Democrats have voted thirteen different times for this
624
00:37:15.360 --> 00:37:19.719
pretty much exact same continuing resolution, but now that Donald
625
00:37:19.719 --> 00:37:23.679
Trump is in office again they vote against it. I
626
00:37:23.800 --> 00:37:25.679
was for it before, I was against it, when I
627
00:37:25.719 --> 00:37:27.719
was against it before I was for it, And then
628
00:37:27.760 --> 00:37:30.119
there was the left back, forward, up, down, left, right,
629
00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:37.400
and she's a he. But yes, under Donald Trump, there
630
00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:41.639
have been more shutdowns. But it's not because it's Donald
631
00:37:41.679 --> 00:37:45.480
Trump that wanted the shutdown. Every single one of them
632
00:37:45.800 --> 00:37:50.480
were because of the Democrats. The Democrats wanting things that
633
00:37:50.519 --> 00:37:55.360
were unreasonable and the Republicans actually doing what they should
634
00:37:55.400 --> 00:37:58.679
be doing and pushing back and saying no, I don't
635
00:37:58.679 --> 00:38:03.440
think so. But again, we have to be selective when
636
00:38:03.480 --> 00:38:05.159
it comes to the facts. We don't want to we
637
00:38:05.199 --> 00:38:06.800
don't want to look at all of the facts and
638
00:38:07.039 --> 00:38:10.679
and and actually well be honest about them. Then, of
639
00:38:10.679 --> 00:38:14.079
course the left takes this information and they run with it.
640
00:38:15.039 --> 00:38:17.760
But there is a pattern, and the pattern is the
641
00:38:17.800 --> 00:38:21.760
Democrats thinking that everybody must bow down to them. Know
642
00:38:21.880 --> 00:38:25.800
if ans or butts about it when they're in power,
643
00:38:26.519 --> 00:38:29.960
sit down, Republicans. You guys lost, We're the ones in control.
644
00:38:30.679 --> 00:38:34.000
When the Republicans win, the Democrats throw their fit. How
645
00:38:34.039 --> 00:38:36.559
good we can't have Well, you have to listen to us.
646
00:38:36.760 --> 00:38:38.679
No we don't. That's the reason for why you lost
647
00:38:38.719 --> 00:38:42.280
the election. We don't have to listen to you. But
648
00:38:42.320 --> 00:38:45.519
they continually do that. It's just over and over and
649
00:38:45.559 --> 00:38:49.760
over again. It's like, I really truly do want Chuck
650
00:38:49.800 --> 00:38:55.159
Schumer to get primary Chuck you Schumer. He's got to go,
651
00:38:56.440 --> 00:38:59.679
absolutely positively has got to go. And the other thing too.
652
00:38:59.719 --> 00:39:05.800
I I've asked this before when it comes to the Democrats,
653
00:39:07.000 --> 00:39:09.400
is King Jeffries really the best you can do for
654
00:39:09.519 --> 00:39:13.400
leadership in the House. I mean, when you look at
655
00:39:13.440 --> 00:39:16.920
all the other people that are Democrats, is a King
656
00:39:17.079 --> 00:39:21.800
Jeffries really the best you can do? And when you
657
00:39:21.840 --> 00:39:27.039
look at who the Democrats continually elevate up to a
658
00:39:28.199 --> 00:39:32.559
position of power, it just you got to scratch your
659
00:39:32.559 --> 00:39:36.480
head a little bit. And just be like, is there
660
00:39:36.519 --> 00:39:39.960
not anybody better? I mean, I understand that right now
661
00:39:40.239 --> 00:39:43.920
we are getting into a time where politics have gotten
662
00:39:44.039 --> 00:39:48.880
so nasty, so ugly, that a lot of people don't
663
00:39:48.960 --> 00:39:52.639
want to go down that road. And I understand that
664
00:39:53.079 --> 00:39:58.920
even though the patriotic side of you should really say, well,
665
00:39:59.039 --> 00:40:01.639
it's worth the sack her vices to be able to
666
00:40:01.639 --> 00:40:05.119
save our country. But we've gotten to a point now
667
00:40:05.239 --> 00:40:08.360
where there's so much nastiness in our in our politics,
668
00:40:08.400 --> 00:40:13.000
and they're in everything is just so negative, then why
669
00:40:13.039 --> 00:40:15.800
would anybody want to get in it? So I guess
670
00:40:15.840 --> 00:40:18.000
that's the reason for why we are stuck with people
671
00:40:18.559 --> 00:40:24.639
like he Keim Jeffries, like AOC, like to lead a rashive,
672
00:40:25.000 --> 00:40:27.840
and all these others that are just the worst people ever.
673
00:40:29.760 --> 00:40:32.800
You're right, Chew, He's a DEI guy, And maybe that's
674
00:40:32.800 --> 00:40:36.880
what it is. Maybe the reason for why he came
675
00:40:37.000 --> 00:40:40.360
Jeffries is in that role was because of the DEI
676
00:40:42.559 --> 00:40:46.480
and the fact that he is like the Timu version
677
00:40:46.559 --> 00:40:50.119
of Obama. Maybe they looked at it and said, look,
678
00:40:50.119 --> 00:40:53.480
if we're going to replace the white woman, we should
679
00:40:53.480 --> 00:40:59.760
replace her with a good looking, well spoken black guy,
680
00:41:01.920 --> 00:41:04.360
very light skin black guy. But still you could say
681
00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:11.239
he's black, and again there's plenty of black Democrats that
682
00:41:11.360 --> 00:41:13.440
actually could have gone in there and done a much
683
00:41:13.480 --> 00:41:16.559
better job. As a matter of fact, last night's dinner
684
00:41:16.559 --> 00:41:19.679
that I saw this morning could probably also do a
685
00:41:19.719 --> 00:41:25.800
better job than Hakeem Jeffries. But the thing that's just
686
00:41:25.840 --> 00:41:29.559
gotten out of control is the amount of lies in propaganda.
687
00:41:30.199 --> 00:41:32.199
And again, this is I think another reason for why
688
00:41:32.239 --> 00:41:34.679
the Smith Munt Act needs to come back and why
689
00:41:34.719 --> 00:41:38.559
Donald Trump hasn't brought that back yet. It blows my
690
00:41:38.639 --> 00:41:42.800
mind because it would force the media to stop with
691
00:41:42.840 --> 00:41:46.559
their propaganda and going right along with it. It'll force
692
00:41:46.639 --> 00:41:49.760
the media for the next time that you have Hakeem
693
00:41:49.800 --> 00:41:53.079
Jeffries that comes on and says that not a single
694
00:41:53.119 --> 00:41:56.559
dime or even Chuck shu it comes on and says
695
00:41:56.559 --> 00:41:58.400
not a single dime of tax payer money has been
696
00:41:58.440 --> 00:42:03.480
spent on illegals healthcare or insurance. That's when they should
697
00:42:03.480 --> 00:42:06.280
be doing their job and saying, well, actually, you know what, senator,
698
00:42:06.280 --> 00:42:10.519
you are absolutely right, but however, according to these numbers,
699
00:42:10.800 --> 00:42:13.639
we've spent X number of billions of dollars on their healthcare,
700
00:42:14.679 --> 00:42:18.559
not their health insurance, their health care. So explain that one,
701
00:42:19.519 --> 00:42:21.360
but they don't do it because the media is bought
702
00:42:21.440 --> 00:42:24.039
right into the loony left as well. All right, we
703
00:42:24.039 --> 00:42:25.519
got to take a break for our top of the hour.
704
00:42:25.599 --> 00:42:27.119
We'll be right back just a minute. This is the
705
00:42:27.119 --> 00:42:29.800
Brian Rush Show and you're listening to Florida Man Radio Network.
706
00:42:36.840 --> 00:42:39.960
Brian most name. You know the brand.
707
00:42:42.719 --> 00:42:50.000
Line up, the always in this one, melting snowface. We're
708
00:42:50.079 --> 00:42:52.880
the fiery head talking truth.
709
00:42:53.000 --> 00:42:54.199
You can't always.
710
00:42:53.840 --> 00:43:04.639
Stand fast to show from coast to coast, got the facts,
711
00:43:04.679 --> 00:43:07.599
but it ain't No boast can't give up the change
712
00:43:07.639 --> 00:43:10.440
and give him a toast to the man who roast
713
00:43:10.519 --> 00:43:11.039
the mots.
714
00:43:11.239 --> 00:43:15.599
Knock it off, it's rust on me, hurting rylack care
715
00:43:15.800 --> 00:43:16.800
of scenes?
716
00:43:17.079 --> 00:43:21.480
Did you mind on Jefrey Fray in the tops and
717
00:43:21.800 --> 00:43:26.440
Silver Street?
718
00:43:29.719 --> 00:43:32.199
Those first words that sparked the plan.
719
00:43:33.199 --> 00:43:38.079
Nothing never stays the same, breaking down laws of shame,
720
00:43:39.079 --> 00:43:43.360
Ryan Rust is here a claim voices rise of Finian
721
00:43:43.559 --> 00:43:49.159
sort through the censor to the court. Allosicians keep the
722
00:43:49.360 --> 00:43:51.880
score for Brian's babbling in this war.
723
00:43:52.199 --> 00:43:54.199
Knock it off, it's rust.
724
00:43:53.960 --> 00:43:58.800
On me, burning ryle like carera scenes. Did your mind
725
00:43:58.880 --> 00:44:03.679
on je Free in the sacial Silver Street?
726
00:44:12.320 --> 00:44:14.519
All right, welcome back to out number two of the show.
727
00:44:14.599 --> 00:44:16.039
It is a Red Friday, brought to you by our
728
00:44:16.039 --> 00:44:18.039
friends at America, Charlie Grill and Tavern. And when we
729
00:44:18.119 --> 00:44:21.719
remember everyone deployed, including our ICE agents that are out
730
00:44:21.960 --> 00:44:25.039
deployed around the country trying to make this country a
731
00:44:25.159 --> 00:44:30.639
safer place. And can I just say what Riley Gaines
732
00:44:31.000 --> 00:44:35.719
last night gave birth to a baby girl. First off,
733
00:44:35.800 --> 00:44:38.280
I had no idea that Riley Gaines was even pregnant.
734
00:44:39.199 --> 00:44:42.840
But aside from that, she posted a photo with her,
735
00:44:42.960 --> 00:44:47.280
her the hubby and their their brand new daughter. Can
736
00:44:47.360 --> 00:44:53.599
I just say for somebody who just gave birth last night? Durnam,
737
00:44:54.480 --> 00:44:58.920
I mean, I'm ladies, I know you might not want
738
00:44:58.920 --> 00:45:03.079
to hear this because I know that you know pregnancy.
739
00:45:03.559 --> 00:45:06.119
It it does something to a woman's body and it
740
00:45:06.199 --> 00:45:11.400
changes it all up. But Riley, that is it's not fair.
741
00:45:11.760 --> 00:45:15.840
It's not fair too well one men, uh and two
742
00:45:16.000 --> 00:45:20.920
women for you to look that good after giving birth.
743
00:45:21.519 --> 00:45:25.559
I'm just I'm I'm a little loss at words there.
744
00:45:25.880 --> 00:45:28.960
If you haven't seen the photo yet, she looks pretty good.
745
00:45:29.000 --> 00:45:30.800
And again I had no idea she was pregnant like
746
00:45:30.840 --> 00:45:32.840
I've been seeing her do all these things now. Idea,
747
00:45:33.800 --> 00:45:36.199
I guess that whole thing about working out and staying fit,
748
00:45:36.320 --> 00:45:39.960
actually there might be something to that, who dow. But anyhow,
749
00:45:40.239 --> 00:45:43.920
congratulations to Riley Gaines on the birth of her her
750
00:45:43.920 --> 00:45:47.039
brand new daughter. And and of course now she has
751
00:45:47.079 --> 00:45:51.239
even more of a a reason to fight for women's
752
00:45:51.360 --> 00:45:55.800
rights and for women in sports because now she's got
753
00:45:55.840 --> 00:46:01.039
a daughter to fight for. Right there, sot her congratulations.
754
00:46:01.039 --> 00:46:04.159
By the way, today is also a Puffy sentencing. Sean
755
00:46:04.280 --> 00:46:08.199
Puffy Comb's puff Daddy is expected to be sentenced later
756
00:46:08.239 --> 00:46:11.840
on today. We'll see what he gets, see if it
757
00:46:11.840 --> 00:46:14.880
will be a slick sentence or not. If you get that,
758
00:46:15.000 --> 00:46:16.519
you get that, and if you do, you're sick and
759
00:46:16.559 --> 00:46:19.880
perverted just like me, and I appreciate that. So we'll
760
00:46:19.960 --> 00:46:22.519
wait for that news coming up later on today what
761
00:46:22.559 --> 00:46:25.400
he ends up getting for a sentencing and the the
762
00:46:25.480 --> 00:46:29.480
trolling continues with Donald Trump. Obviously. The one big thing
763
00:46:29.519 --> 00:46:33.039
that's out there right now are the memes with with
764
00:46:33.119 --> 00:46:39.280
the Keem Jefferies and Chuck you Schumer, which is absolutely hilarious,
765
00:46:39.880 --> 00:46:42.039
But the White House has decided to step it up
766
00:46:42.079 --> 00:46:44.760
a little bit now. One of the controversies that has
767
00:46:44.800 --> 00:46:48.599
come about is the the halftime show that is coming
768
00:46:48.679 --> 00:46:51.840
up for the Super Bowl with Bad Bunny. Bad Bunny
769
00:46:51.880 --> 00:46:54.920
is going to be doing the Super Bowl show, which one,
770
00:46:55.239 --> 00:46:58.320
he doesn't speak English. If he does, he doesn't sing
771
00:46:58.360 --> 00:47:03.880
anything in English. Everything is Spanish. The number of Hispanics,
772
00:47:03.880 --> 00:47:07.440
the percentage of Hispanics that actually watched the Super Bowl
773
00:47:07.840 --> 00:47:13.000
versus everybody else extremely low. On top of that, Bad
774
00:47:13.039 --> 00:47:17.719
Bunny is a anti Donald Trump, anti Ice, and illegal
775
00:47:18.239 --> 00:47:23.920
immigration enforcement person, so he's not exactly somebody that the
776
00:47:24.000 --> 00:47:28.800
majority of the football watching audience is going to want
777
00:47:28.800 --> 00:47:33.239
to tune in to see. The White House has decided
778
00:47:33.280 --> 00:47:36.280
to troll a little bit more. The White House announced
779
00:47:36.360 --> 00:47:39.079
that there's going to be Ice agents that will be
780
00:47:39.239 --> 00:47:45.440
present during the Super Bowl for the Bad Bunny performance,
781
00:47:46.039 --> 00:47:50.199
which I think is absolutely hilarious. Bad Bunny even said
782
00:47:50.639 --> 00:47:53.840
that he is not going to perform anywhere in the country,
783
00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:56.639
and the reason why he didn't want to perform anywhere
784
00:47:56.639 --> 00:47:58.599
in the country is that he is afraid that his
785
00:47:58.760 --> 00:48:04.480
fan base is gonna get locked up by Ice, so
786
00:48:04.559 --> 00:48:06.440
he's not going to do it. And now the fact
787
00:48:06.519 --> 00:48:10.239
that Ice is going to be there at the performance
788
00:48:11.119 --> 00:48:15.639
is hilarious. Shoes right, he's a trainning. I are we
789
00:48:15.679 --> 00:48:17.039
allowed to use that word tranning?
790
00:48:17.519 --> 00:48:17.719
Is that?
791
00:48:17.840 --> 00:48:19.480
Is that politically correct? I don't even know what the
792
00:48:19.519 --> 00:48:21.159
hell he is, to be honest with you, I think
793
00:48:21.159 --> 00:48:25.320
he's just I don't think he's a transgender or tranny
794
00:48:25.440 --> 00:48:28.039
like the the the gen xers we like to call it,
795
00:48:28.039 --> 00:48:30.599
because that's what it was. Let's let's just be what
796
00:48:30.679 --> 00:48:33.320
it was. It's a tranny. I can't believe you'd say
797
00:48:33.320 --> 00:48:36.079
those where there's so offensive, good sit down and cry.
798
00:48:37.320 --> 00:48:42.719
But he's just a typical Hollywood entertaining freak is a
799
00:48:42.719 --> 00:48:45.679
freak show. And I think a lot of it is
800
00:48:45.719 --> 00:48:48.360
that that whole attention getting thing. I'm gonna show up
801
00:48:48.400 --> 00:48:50.840
to an award show or to some ceremony, you know,
802
00:48:50.960 --> 00:48:53.599
dressed in high heels and a skirt. It's like, wow,
803
00:48:53.639 --> 00:48:59.119
that's that's greater whatever. But again, the fact that ice
804
00:48:59.159 --> 00:49:00.880
agents are going to be present and at the super Bowl,
805
00:49:02.440 --> 00:49:05.039
I think it's hilarious and there'll be many ways that
806
00:49:05.079 --> 00:49:09.440
they can get away with it too. If Donald Trump decides, hey,
807
00:49:09.440 --> 00:49:12.840
I'm going to go to the super Bowl, then the
808
00:49:12.920 --> 00:49:16.960
Secret Service is going to take over security of the
809
00:49:17.360 --> 00:49:20.559
of the super Bowl. And when they do that. They
810
00:49:20.599 --> 00:49:24.320
do like to bring in other agencies for very large
811
00:49:24.360 --> 00:49:29.320
events to assist in the UH in the security details.
812
00:49:29.360 --> 00:49:33.440
And if you have a bunch of ICE agents that
813
00:49:33.599 --> 00:49:37.280
have to be scattered all around the super Bowl in
814
00:49:37.360 --> 00:49:40.559
places where the camera could be there and they've got
815
00:49:40.599 --> 00:49:45.320
to have I'm getting too much joy out of that,
816
00:49:45.519 --> 00:49:48.280
I really am. I'm like, in the back of my head,
817
00:49:48.320 --> 00:49:53.119
I've got the wheels rolling saying that, seeing how how
818
00:49:53.119 --> 00:49:54.920
that's going to impact him and whether or not he'll
819
00:49:54.960 --> 00:49:59.480
be Like if ICE agents were stationed at the the
820
00:49:59.480 --> 00:50:02.480
the en stands for where he would have to come in,
821
00:50:03.239 --> 00:50:05.119
if ICE agents were the ones that had to like
822
00:50:05.360 --> 00:50:08.639
escort him around, that would be hilarious. It would absolutely
823
00:50:08.719 --> 00:50:12.960
be hilarious. Uh to see happen. I can't wait. I
824
00:50:13.280 --> 00:50:16.000
might watch the Super Bowl, uh, just to see what
825
00:50:16.079 --> 00:50:20.400
happens with that. So we'll see. So the with the
826
00:50:20.519 --> 00:50:24.639
continuing resolution that is going down which has now shut
827
00:50:24.679 --> 00:50:27.239
down the government. Uh, this is again one of the
828
00:50:27.280 --> 00:50:31.199
things that that Chuck Chuck you Schumer has has not
829
00:50:31.360 --> 00:50:34.840
calculated into. And I don't think Keem Jeffries did either
830
00:50:35.760 --> 00:50:37.760
the steps that now Donald Trump is able to do.
831
00:50:38.599 --> 00:50:40.840
And of course we are. We are hearing over and
832
00:50:40.880 --> 00:50:45.760
over again about how the Republicans are not stepping up
833
00:50:45.800 --> 00:50:49.519
to the plate to negotiate, and and they just walked
834
00:50:49.519 --> 00:50:52.400
away from everything. It's like, no, they'd been trying to
835
00:50:52.440 --> 00:50:55.360
get this done for a while because remember despite the
836
00:50:55.360 --> 00:50:58.400
fact that the the the House should have been working
837
00:50:58.440 --> 00:51:02.800
on the actual budget for the past month, they have
838
00:51:02.920 --> 00:51:06.719
been working on the Continuing Resolution. So for the past
839
00:51:06.840 --> 00:51:10.039
month they've been working on the Continuing Resolution, trying to
840
00:51:10.039 --> 00:51:12.280
get the Democrats involved, and the Democrats come to the
841
00:51:12.280 --> 00:51:14.159
table say we might have spend one point five trillion,
842
00:51:14.199 --> 00:51:16.199
now there's more, and we want more healthcare for all
843
00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:21.880
the illegals. They've had the opportunity to do this. As
844
00:51:21.920 --> 00:51:27.199
Speaker Johnson had said, there's nothing to negotiate. It's something
845
00:51:27.239 --> 00:51:30.800
that this Continuing Resolution is something that had been passed
846
00:51:30.840 --> 00:51:39.599
thirteen times by Democrats. And now Donald Trump, who he
847
00:51:39.760 --> 00:51:44.400
says he didn't want the shutdown, but there's parts of
848
00:51:44.440 --> 00:51:46.719
me that go, I think in the back of his
849
00:51:46.840 --> 00:51:52.480
head he was kind of hoping for it. Because what
850
00:51:52.639 --> 00:51:55.400
ended up happening as soon as the shutdown goes in,
851
00:51:55.519 --> 00:51:58.440
the President and his team now gets to stemp up
852
00:51:58.440 --> 00:52:01.760
and go all right, figure out what is essential, what's
853
00:52:01.760 --> 00:52:04.519
not essential, who to lay off, what to close, what
854
00:52:04.599 --> 00:52:08.400
not to close. Let's go and now the President of
855
00:52:08.440 --> 00:52:11.039
the United States and his team gets to unilaterally make
856
00:52:11.079 --> 00:52:14.880
that decision. And at this point in time, and as
857
00:52:14.920 --> 00:52:18.599
Donald Trump even said it, he's like, look, will close
858
00:52:18.639 --> 00:52:22.639
programs and commissions and and you know, get rid of
859
00:52:22.920 --> 00:52:25.760
certain people. And we're just going to do it. And
860
00:52:25.800 --> 00:52:28.000
he posted on his true social that he would be
861
00:52:28.039 --> 00:52:32.559
meeting with is it vauked or vaunt vaut I? Hear
862
00:52:32.719 --> 00:52:35.840
his name pronounced like fifteen different ways. So Russ. He's
863
00:52:35.840 --> 00:52:39.000
going to be a meeting with Russ, the Budget Director,
864
00:52:40.519 --> 00:52:44.159
and they're going to be determining which of the as
865
00:52:44.199 --> 00:52:47.960
Donald Trump put to determine which of the many Democrat agencies,
866
00:52:48.480 --> 00:52:52.239
most of which are a political scam, he recommends to
867
00:52:52.320 --> 00:52:55.039
be cut, and whether or not those cuts will be
868
00:52:55.119 --> 00:53:00.480
temporary or permanent. And remember that's the catch right there,
869
00:53:00.920 --> 00:53:05.039
that now Donald Trump can make some permanent cuts that
870
00:53:05.239 --> 00:53:08.440
in order for them to be restored, they're going to
871
00:53:08.519 --> 00:53:10.639
have to go back to Congress. Then they're going to
872
00:53:10.719 --> 00:53:14.760
have to pass a bill to restore those things. And
873
00:53:14.880 --> 00:53:19.719
without the Republican's assistance, not going to happen. But Donald
874
00:53:19.719 --> 00:53:22.480
Trump went on to say that I can't believe the
875
00:53:22.599 --> 00:53:27.760
radical left Democrats gave me this unprecedented opportunity. They're not
876
00:53:27.960 --> 00:53:31.800
stupid people, so maybe this is their way of wanting
877
00:53:31.840 --> 00:53:38.599
to quietly and quickly make America great again. President DJ tamsprise.
878
00:53:38.639 --> 00:53:40.480
He didn't end that with thank you for your attention
879
00:53:40.559 --> 00:53:42.800
to this matter. But you know what, he's got a point.
880
00:53:44.320 --> 00:53:48.000
I mean, first off, he now has this unprecedented opportunity
881
00:53:48.199 --> 00:53:51.599
to do these cuts that could be permanent, shutting down
882
00:53:51.639 --> 00:53:55.960
program sutting down commissions, getting rid of employees, and trimming
883
00:53:56.000 --> 00:53:59.679
the fat in our federal government. And he can't believe
884
00:53:59.679 --> 00:54:02.440
that they gave him that opportunity. And to be honest
885
00:54:02.480 --> 00:54:05.519
with you, I don't think most of them knew they did.
886
00:54:06.519 --> 00:54:09.360
And I think that in the coming days, as Donald
887
00:54:09.400 --> 00:54:12.239
Trump starts going and cut this and cut that and
888
00:54:12.280 --> 00:54:16.920
cut this, that's when the radical left, the aocs will
889
00:54:16.960 --> 00:54:19.519
be like, oh my god, what's going on? Why is
890
00:54:19.599 --> 00:54:22.280
Donald Trump doing this? He shaidn't be able to. You mean,
891
00:54:22.440 --> 00:54:24.360
he can do it because we voted this shut down
892
00:54:24.400 --> 00:54:27.559
the government. Oh my god, like my office door was open,
893
00:54:27.559 --> 00:54:32.400
and why didn't these Republicans come negotiate with me. But
894
00:54:32.559 --> 00:54:35.960
maybe there is some truth to what Donald Trump said
895
00:54:35.960 --> 00:54:39.079
at the end of his statement that maybe this is
896
00:54:39.119 --> 00:54:42.960
their way of wanting to quietly and quickly make America
897
00:54:43.039 --> 00:54:46.280
great again, because again, not all the Democrats are stupid,
898
00:54:47.119 --> 00:54:50.719
but they also know that if they go down certain roads,
899
00:54:51.280 --> 00:54:54.480
then it could affect them when it comes to reelections
900
00:54:54.679 --> 00:54:58.960
and winning back the House. So if we come out
901
00:54:58.960 --> 00:55:03.199
and say we shut down the government or that we
902
00:55:03.360 --> 00:55:05.440
voted to shut down everything, but it's all because of
903
00:55:05.440 --> 00:55:07.960
Donald Trump, and it's his fault to Donald Trump bad.
904
00:55:08.679 --> 00:55:11.519
But in the background, they can sit there and go, whoo,
905
00:55:12.880 --> 00:55:14.599
it's not gonna be me getting the blame for shutting
906
00:55:14.599 --> 00:55:16.920
down that program that never should have existed to begin with,
907
00:55:17.000 --> 00:55:20.119
and said that program's gone like it needed to be,
908
00:55:20.679 --> 00:55:24.000
and Donald Trump gets the blame for it or credit,
909
00:55:24.039 --> 00:55:25.960
however side you want to look at it. So there
910
00:55:26.000 --> 00:55:30.039
may actually be some truth to that. But again, now
911
00:55:30.039 --> 00:55:33.000
Donald Trump has got the free will to go crazy.
912
00:55:34.119 --> 00:55:36.960
And of course that post that that Trump had made
913
00:55:37.000 --> 00:55:40.719
on truth Social comes as him and Russ are continuing
914
00:55:40.760 --> 00:55:44.440
to implement broad reductions in the federal bureaucracy, which is
915
00:55:44.480 --> 00:55:49.719
what we've wanted. We want that bureaucracy to be cut.
916
00:55:50.239 --> 00:55:54.400
And remember, if somebody is a non essential government employee,
917
00:55:55.079 --> 00:55:57.920
then that means they were not needed to begin with.
918
00:55:59.719 --> 00:56:02.239
Now how they define the non essential is going to
919
00:56:02.239 --> 00:56:04.079
be interesting, of course, they're going to be like, see,
920
00:56:04.159 --> 00:56:07.360
we have janitors that are being let go. Now a
921
00:56:07.440 --> 00:56:11.800
janitor should be essential. A janitor that is cleaning up
922
00:56:11.840 --> 00:56:16.199
the Capitol building and cleaning up the parks, and that's essential.
923
00:56:16.480 --> 00:56:17.320
Got to have somebody to.
924
00:56:17.239 --> 00:56:17.880
Clean this up.
925
00:56:18.000 --> 00:56:22.239
So an essential employee Now, the assistant of the assistant,
926
00:56:22.280 --> 00:56:24.400
of the assistant, and the intern of the intern of
927
00:56:24.400 --> 00:56:28.639
the assistant. Those are things that are non essential. There
928
00:56:28.679 --> 00:56:31.519
are departments in programs that are out there that are
929
00:56:31.559 --> 00:56:33.960
non essential, that are not needed in this country. So
930
00:56:34.000 --> 00:56:38.719
it should go. But russ He revealed earlier this week
931
00:56:39.000 --> 00:56:43.280
the cancelation of nearly eight billion dollars in the federal
932
00:56:43.320 --> 00:56:47.760
green energy products, which targeted blue and blue leaning states
933
00:56:47.800 --> 00:56:51.840
like California, Colorado, Illinois, New York, and a whole host
934
00:56:51.880 --> 00:56:54.039
of others, didn't go to any of the red states,
935
00:56:54.079 --> 00:56:57.519
all to the blue states, and the administration also confirmed
936
00:56:57.559 --> 00:57:02.199
that eighteen billion dollars in infrastrutructure projects in New York City,
937
00:57:02.239 --> 00:57:06.199
including the Hudson Tunnel project and the second Second Avenue Subway,
938
00:57:06.639 --> 00:57:12.199
would be placed on hold pending review of contracting practices. Now, remember,
939
00:57:12.440 --> 00:57:15.119
if there's anybody that understands how to do that, it's
940
00:57:15.239 --> 00:57:19.039
Donald Trump. You remember the man who said, hey, look
941
00:57:20.800 --> 00:57:23.719
looking outside of my window. Here there's that skating rink.
942
00:57:25.320 --> 00:57:26.480
You guys, can you finish?
943
00:57:26.559 --> 00:57:26.840
All right?
944
00:57:27.000 --> 00:57:29.119
Tell you what, I'm gonna finish it. I'm gonna finish
945
00:57:29.199 --> 00:57:31.239
it on time. I'm gonna finish it under budget. The
946
00:57:31.280 --> 00:57:33.679
thing that the city has been able to do city
947
00:57:33.800 --> 00:57:36.840
was like, all right, sure, Donald Trump turns around and boom,
948
00:57:36.840 --> 00:57:40.719
done under budget and ahead of schedule. So that if
949
00:57:40.760 --> 00:57:43.639
there's anybody that knows how to do that, it's the contractor.
950
00:57:44.920 --> 00:57:47.679
And we have seen so many of these quote unquote
951
00:57:47.719 --> 00:57:52.559
infrastructure projects where they have not done well. Look at
952
00:57:52.559 --> 00:57:54.920
the billions of dollars that have been spent for a
953
00:57:55.079 --> 00:57:58.199
mile of the high speed rail in California, something they've
954
00:57:58.239 --> 00:58:00.480
been working on for how long now, I mean, I
955
00:58:00.519 --> 00:58:03.760
don't even remember when they started that project. You also
956
00:58:03.800 --> 00:58:09.119
have the solar farm, the big solar farm that has
957
00:58:09.159 --> 00:58:11.519
been going down for what about ten years, and they
958
00:58:11.639 --> 00:58:14.880
just shut it down because they went, huh, look at that.
959
00:58:15.079 --> 00:58:18.639
It didn't work. It wasn't producing anywhere near the energy
960
00:58:18.639 --> 00:58:20.000
that we thought it was going to, and it was
961
00:58:20.039 --> 00:58:24.679
costing us billions of dollars. Sorry, we failed shut it down.
962
00:58:27.280 --> 00:58:29.519
When it comes to doing infrastructure in this country, By
963
00:58:29.559 --> 00:58:31.920
the way, this is something that just it annoys me,
964
00:58:31.960 --> 00:58:33.480
and I know it annoys a lot of you too,
965
00:58:33.760 --> 00:58:37.679
especially those that live here in Florida. Because I don't
966
00:58:37.719 --> 00:58:40.440
know who's in charge of infrastructure projects here in the
967
00:58:40.440 --> 00:58:42.960
state of Florida. I'm beginning to think that it might
968
00:58:43.000 --> 00:58:46.400
be a Democrat, I really am, because they can't get
969
00:58:46.440 --> 00:58:51.199
anything done. How long did it take for the in
970
00:58:51.239 --> 00:58:55.320
the Central Panhandle area here to do roads like Highway
971
00:58:55.360 --> 00:59:00.400
seventy seven. It had to have taken twenty year years
972
00:59:00.440 --> 00:59:03.760
easily to do that project. And I don't even think
973
00:59:03.760 --> 00:59:06.079
it's completely done yet. I think they stopped at a
974
00:59:06.119 --> 00:59:09.280
certain point. How long does it take to get these
975
00:59:09.320 --> 00:59:13.000
projects done? So, yeah, we need to work on infrastructure.
976
00:59:13.039 --> 00:59:16.079
We need to do the contracting practices a little bit better.
977
00:59:16.119 --> 00:59:18.800
We need to make sure that we're not spending absorbent
978
00:59:19.039 --> 00:59:22.719
amounts of money and things aren't getting done on time.
979
00:59:22.800 --> 00:59:25.639
So sure, the Hudson Tunnel project, in the Second Avenue subway,
980
00:59:26.119 --> 00:59:28.800
and all these other infrastructure projects, they need to be
981
00:59:28.920 --> 00:59:32.440
put on hold and reviewed. We need to start doing
982
00:59:32.440 --> 00:59:36.079
this in a smart, effective financial way. That's not going
983
00:59:36.159 --> 00:59:39.039
to be a problem. But Russ also played a pretty cool,
984
00:59:39.239 --> 00:59:44.320
pretty central role too in shaping the federal operations. In August,
985
00:59:45.000 --> 00:59:48.159
when it came to a whole bunch of other projects,
986
00:59:48.199 --> 00:59:50.559
Marco Rubio, by the way, pointed him to oversee the
987
00:59:50.639 --> 00:59:54.440
close out of the US Agency for International Development, the USAID,
988
00:59:55.840 --> 01:00:01.239
following Congress's approval of the nine billion dollars recession package
989
01:00:01.320 --> 01:00:05.360
that eliminated funding for the USAID and PBS and everybody else.
990
01:00:06.280 --> 01:00:09.840
The trimming is happening, and the trimming right now is
991
01:00:09.880 --> 01:00:13.840
gonna be even more mouth watering than watching Dad stand
992
01:00:13.840 --> 01:00:17.800
there in front of the Thanksgiving turkey and carving into
993
01:00:17.840 --> 01:00:20.760
that and that first knife slice goes into that and
994
01:00:20.800 --> 01:00:23.079
you see that juiceese stares come off of that thing
995
01:00:23.119 --> 01:00:26.360
and your mouth starts to water. Oh, this is gonna
996
01:00:26.400 --> 01:00:28.480
be good. I'm gonna enjoy every second of this, and
997
01:00:28.480 --> 01:00:32.400
I'm also gonna enjoy the meltdowns from the left. Donald
998
01:00:32.480 --> 01:00:34.719
Chump is a bad guy, and he's taking away all
999
01:00:34.760 --> 01:00:38.360
of our infrastructure projects, and he's shutting down the healthcare
1000
01:00:38.440 --> 01:00:42.000
and oh this is the worst. Now, Actually, what this is,
1001
01:00:42.480 --> 01:00:45.119
this is what we wanted. It's a Red Friday, brought
1002
01:00:45.119 --> 01:00:47.719
to you by our friends at American Charlie Grill and Tavern,
1003
01:00:47.760 --> 01:00:51.159
where we were remembering everyone deployed. And again that includes
1004
01:00:51.199 --> 01:00:52.800
all of our ICE agents that are out in the
1005
01:00:52.800 --> 01:00:55.519
front line right now dealing with so much of the
1006
01:00:55.920 --> 01:00:58.639
horribleness from the left. We remember you guys, and we
1007
01:00:58.719 --> 01:01:01.079
thank you guys for getting out there and doing your thing.
1008
01:01:01.119 --> 01:01:03.159
And of course to all of our military that is
1009
01:01:03.199 --> 01:01:06.079
deployed around the country and around the world. That's what
1010
01:01:06.119 --> 01:01:08.079
a Red Friday is all about. And again sponsored by
1011
01:01:08.079 --> 01:01:21.719
our friends at American Charlie. We'll be right back, all right,
1012
01:01:21.880 --> 01:01:23.920

1021
01:01:47.599 --> 01:01:52.280
Was nice to also finally be back in the in
1022
01:01:52.360 --> 01:01:56.280
the studio, back in the Nagodov studio, which which we
1023
01:01:56.360 --> 01:02:06.079
have completely missed the studio. Hang on a second guests
1024
01:02:06.079 --> 01:02:07.599
coming up this morning on the show. By the way,
1025
01:02:08.159 --> 01:02:10.880
we do have at the top of the hour, h
1026
01:02:10.960 --> 01:02:13.559
Linda Cope from the Warrior Beach Retreat is gonna be on.
1027
01:02:13.559 --> 01:02:16.800
We're gonna chat with her about the upcoming event that's
1028
01:02:16.840 --> 01:02:22.119
going on. Also, we have the the Doster Boys that
1029
01:02:22.199 --> 01:02:25.000
will be joining us coming up later on this morning
1030
01:02:25.280 --> 01:02:28.440
as well in the next hour of the show, where
1031
01:02:28.440 --> 01:02:30.760
we'll talk about a whole bunch of Florida things and
1032
01:02:30.760 --> 01:02:32.280
and get some of their thoughts and opinions on the
1033
01:02:32.280 --> 01:02:35.920
shutdown as well. So what else we got to talk about.
1034
01:02:36.519 --> 01:02:38.880
I'm sorry, I'm just I'm a little giddy today for
1035
01:02:38.920 --> 01:02:46.119
some reason. Oh, Donald Trump's unhinged. Donald Trump's absolute unhinged.
1036
01:02:46.159 --> 01:02:48.239
You don't you don't understand how bad it is. And
1037
01:02:48.239 --> 01:02:50.920
and we've got to go to Madeleine Dean. I know who.
1038
01:02:51.920 --> 01:02:58.400
Madeleine Dean is a Democrat congresswoman from from Pennsylvania, which
1039
01:02:58.559 --> 01:03:03.320
if you're a Democrat right now in Pennsylvania, you are
1040
01:03:03.440 --> 01:03:07.800
probably not thinking that you have a great future in
1041
01:03:08.880 --> 01:03:15.119
politics because Pennsylvania, the amount of people that are switching
1042
01:03:15.159 --> 01:03:18.719
over to the Republican Party and what Scott Presler, by
1043
01:03:18.719 --> 01:03:20.719
the way, I got a total hats off to him.
1044
01:03:21.239 --> 01:03:23.960
What Scott Presler is doing in the state of Pennsylvania
1045
01:03:24.000 --> 01:03:28.679
with getting the registration push out and getting out there
1046
01:03:28.679 --> 01:03:30.880
and getting people to switch over to the Republican Party
1047
01:03:30.880 --> 01:03:33.039
has been amazing. And the thing that I love about
1048
01:03:33.079 --> 01:03:38.679
it with Scott is he is pretty much the opposite
1049
01:03:38.760 --> 01:03:43.000
of what the left would like when it comes to
1050
01:03:44.440 --> 01:03:51.719
an operative on the Republican side. First off, he's gay.
1051
01:03:54.039 --> 01:03:56.199
That right there that throws the Democrats off. They're like,
1052
01:03:56.239 --> 01:04:00.480
oh my god, why is there a gay guy helping Theublicans.
1053
01:04:00.480 --> 01:04:04.480
Doesn't he understand the Republicans don't like him. No, we
1054
01:04:04.519 --> 01:04:06.920
have no problem with it. And on top of that,
1055
01:04:06.960 --> 01:04:09.559
he is young and he's got the long hair thing going,
1056
01:04:10.119 --> 01:04:12.760
not like you know, pretty boy here, but just like
1057
01:04:13.360 --> 01:04:16.039
rock band kind of long hair. But the kid has
1058
01:04:16.079 --> 01:04:19.280
done an amazing job at getting that message out. And
1059
01:04:19.280 --> 01:04:21.039
this is one of these things where I look at
1060
01:04:21.039 --> 01:04:26.039
it and I say, hey, RNC, will you will you
1061
01:04:26.119 --> 01:04:28.320
take a look at these young people that are helping
1062
01:04:28.320 --> 01:04:31.840
out the Republican Party. What are you doing to help them?
1063
01:04:31.880 --> 01:04:34.960
What are you doing to understand what's going on here? Well, ye, see,
1064
01:04:34.960 --> 01:04:37.840
the book says that we have to on this point
1065
01:04:37.880 --> 01:04:40.599
in the time, we have to turn to page number
1066
01:04:40.679 --> 01:04:44.239
fifty three, and we have these procedures we have to follow. No,
1067
01:04:44.360 --> 01:04:47.519
you don't think outside the box, and that's exactly what's
1068
01:04:47.559 --> 01:04:51.519
going on. So again, oh Squirrel, props to him, to
1069
01:04:52.639 --> 01:04:55.159
Scott Presler for the amazing work that he's doing. He
1070
01:04:55.239 --> 01:04:59.000
really is, and they're attacking him. They are attacking him
1071
01:04:59.039 --> 01:05:03.119
like you wouldn't Belie leave from the Left, which I
1072
01:05:03.119 --> 01:05:06.199
find hilarious because I didn't think you were supposed to
1073
01:05:07.199 --> 01:05:09.840
attack young gay people like that. But I guess if
1074
01:05:09.840 --> 01:05:13.440
you're a Republican it doesn't really matter. But back to
1075
01:05:13.480 --> 01:05:18.079
Madeline Dean. Madeline was on Anderson Cooper three point sixty
1076
01:05:18.119 --> 01:05:20.679
And again I know you're saying who, because nobody really
1077
01:05:20.719 --> 01:05:24.000
cares about Madeline Dean, But this is again an example
1078
01:05:24.039 --> 01:05:27.760
of the left. They were having a discussion about with
1079
01:05:27.880 --> 01:05:31.400
Speaker Johnson, and Dean had said that I have told
1080
01:05:31.440 --> 01:05:34.280
him how deeply concerned I am that the president is
1081
01:05:34.400 --> 01:05:38.519
unhinged and unwell and our allies are noticing it, and
1082
01:05:38.559 --> 01:05:42.000
they're looking elsewhere for support, and our enemies are enjoying
1083
01:05:42.039 --> 01:05:57.119
it and they're embolded by it. What where, where? Where?
1084
01:05:57.239 --> 01:06:00.639
Where is this? Madeline? Is is this a movie that
1085
01:06:00.639 --> 01:06:03.400
you're watching, You're reading a book somewhere, or are you
1086
01:06:03.440 --> 01:06:06.840
living in an alternate universe? Where where exactly is that?
1087
01:06:06.920 --> 01:06:07.159
Again?
1088
01:06:08.840 --> 01:06:11.000
Is it in your own fantasy world? Is this one
1089
01:06:11.000 --> 01:06:15.360
of the Democrat fantasy stories that they're sharing on Reddit
1090
01:06:15.480 --> 01:06:19.880
or something? Is that where you get this information from?
1091
01:06:19.920 --> 01:06:22.039
But John Berman, who was filling in for Anderson Cooper,
1092
01:06:22.039 --> 01:06:24.119
had said, you just called the president unwell again, what
1093
01:06:24.159 --> 01:06:27.400
do you mean by that? And I love this because
1094
01:06:27.400 --> 01:06:32.880
her response was, well, he's aging, aren't we all? Yeah,
1095
01:06:33.440 --> 01:06:38.960
we're all aging, some age differently than others. But she
1096
01:06:39.039 --> 01:06:40.719
goes on to say that I think we can very
1097
01:06:40.800 --> 01:06:43.519
much so notice that there's a different man than he
1098
01:06:43.679 --> 01:06:47.760
was in his first term. Yeah, he's four years older,
1099
01:06:48.599 --> 01:06:51.440
of course, he's a different man. He's also a different
1100
01:06:51.480 --> 01:06:55.119
man because he was somebody that was abused and took
1101
01:06:55.159 --> 01:06:58.599
so much crap that he changed as a man. He
1102
01:06:58.840 --> 01:07:02.719
changed as a because of the lessons that he had learned.
1103
01:07:03.199 --> 01:07:06.320
So yes, he's a very much so different man this
1104
01:07:06.400 --> 01:07:09.199
time around. And it would not have been so bad,
1105
01:07:09.280 --> 01:07:13.119
by the way, if Donald Trump was reelected. I don't
1106
01:07:13.159 --> 01:07:16.000
think that Donald Trump would be doing the stuff that
1107
01:07:16.039 --> 01:07:19.280
he is doing today if Donald Trump got reelected in
1108
01:07:19.519 --> 01:07:22.880
twenty twenty, I really don't. I think the absolute best
1109
01:07:22.920 --> 01:07:25.599
thing that happened to this country, And I know this
1110
01:07:25.639 --> 01:07:28.519
sounds hard to say, but I'm just saying anyhow, the
1111
01:07:28.559 --> 01:07:30.920
best thing that happened in this country was Donald Trump
1112
01:07:31.000 --> 01:07:34.639
lost the election in twenty twenty, hands down one of
1113
01:07:34.719 --> 01:07:38.599
the best things to happen, because one had gotten to
1114
01:07:38.679 --> 01:07:42.400
expose the Democrats for who they really truly are. We
1115
01:07:42.480 --> 01:07:45.639
saw four years of absolute chaos, and yes, those four
1116
01:07:45.719 --> 01:07:48.639
years sucked for us, but it also made us realize,
1117
01:07:48.679 --> 01:07:52.039
and it made Donald Trump realize how good we actually
1118
01:07:52.039 --> 01:07:55.159
had it under Trump and what the Democrats are really
1119
01:07:55.199 --> 01:07:58.320
truly doing, and what the deep state and the bureaucracy
1120
01:07:58.360 --> 01:08:00.320
and all this other stuff the problem that they are.
1121
01:08:00.639 --> 01:08:03.760
So Donald Trump woke up to it more. He had
1122
01:08:03.800 --> 01:08:06.800
a new mission. We woke up to it because of
1123
01:08:06.840 --> 01:08:10.880
the suffering that we had to do, and even Democrats
1124
01:08:10.920 --> 01:08:13.639
woke up to the suffering as well. So when Donald
1125
01:08:13.679 --> 01:08:17.279
Trump came around, it all changed. All right, we got
1126
01:08:17.319 --> 01:08:18.960
to take a quick break. We'll be right back. This
1127
01:08:19.000 --> 01:08:19.920
is the Brian Rush Show.
1128
01:08:20.039 --> 01:08:36.399
Good morning, making liberals cry, one happy show at a time.
1129
01:08:36.880 --> 01:08:41.119
This is the Brian Rust Show. All right, welcome back
1130
01:08:41.119 --> 01:08:42.840
to the show. Thank you so much for waking up
1131
01:08:42.880 --> 01:08:45.640
with us today. We went late on that break. My bad,
1132
01:08:46.439 --> 01:08:50.880
That's okay, it's all good. By the way, talking about Pennsylvania,
1133
01:08:50.920 --> 01:08:54.600
there's so much about Pennsylvania too that that is that's
1134
01:08:54.600 --> 01:08:57.000
got to be freaking out the Democrats. It really does,
1135
01:08:57.119 --> 01:09:00.319
because the effort that is being put in and by
1136
01:09:00.319 --> 01:09:04.319
the way, not by the Republican Party, but by people
1137
01:09:04.399 --> 01:09:07.960
who want to make America better and starting off with
1138
01:09:08.000 --> 01:09:11.399
Pennsylvania because that is his home state. When we're talking
1139
01:09:11.399 --> 01:09:13.880
about Scott Presler and all the things that he's done,
1140
01:09:14.039 --> 01:09:18.279
it's amazing and it should be an example of what
1141
01:09:18.319 --> 01:09:20.439
other states need to be doing and what other people
1142
01:09:20.520 --> 01:09:23.000
need to be doing. We need to be taking the
1143
01:09:23.039 --> 01:09:29.239
reins because look, I don't trust the Republican Party, the
1144
01:09:29.560 --> 01:09:32.920
National Committee, the RNC to do what is necessary to
1145
01:09:33.000 --> 01:09:35.920
do to win. I really don't. We have to get
1146
01:09:35.960 --> 01:09:38.640
out there and we have got to do more to
1147
01:09:38.720 --> 01:09:42.199
spread the message and get that out. That's what we
1148
01:09:42.279 --> 01:09:45.359
need to do. And seeing him doing that, that is awesome.
1149
01:09:45.359 --> 01:09:47.840
And I know that we also have a lot of
1150
01:09:47.880 --> 01:09:50.920
people that listen to this show, watch this show, download
1151
01:09:50.960 --> 01:09:54.439
the podcast. In Pennsylvania. It's one of our top states
1152
01:09:54.439 --> 01:09:57.359
that we have often that is watching the show. And
1153
01:09:57.439 --> 01:10:00.760
we are still trying to figure out a good time
1154
01:10:00.800 --> 01:10:04.279
to go up and do a visit to Pennsylvania, do
1155
01:10:04.319 --> 01:10:06.680
a weekend visit. I'm not sure when we're going to
1156
01:10:06.760 --> 01:10:10.279
do it, working on it. I mean, I just with
1157
01:10:10.319 --> 01:10:13.199
the week that I just had, I just spend a
1158
01:10:13.239 --> 01:10:15.279
lot of money on on on time away, which by
1159
01:10:15.279 --> 01:10:17.520
the way, I did not go to Disney at all. Well,
1160
01:10:17.760 --> 01:10:19.359
I can't say I didn't go to Disney. I did
1161
01:10:19.359 --> 01:10:21.800
go to Disney Springs, but I almost don't count that.
1162
01:10:23.119 --> 01:10:26.920
But I didn't do the Disney thing, even though the
1163
01:10:27.039 --> 01:10:31.039
last day that I was in Orlando was when the
1164
01:10:32.479 --> 01:10:36.439
when the food, wine and food thing started at Epcot.
1165
01:10:36.880 --> 01:10:38.880
Has anybody ever been to that. I've been dying to
1166
01:10:38.920 --> 01:10:42.439
go to that, but fat boy Happy, I realized it
1167
01:10:42.479 --> 01:10:45.800
would probably have been a bad idea because immediately following
1168
01:10:45.840 --> 01:10:47.359
my vacation, I had to go to the Mayo Clinic,
1169
01:10:47.880 --> 01:10:51.800
and if I spent all that day eating at the
1170
01:10:51.880 --> 01:10:56.399
wine and food festival, I probably would have weighed about
1171
01:10:56.399 --> 01:10:58.359
three hundred pounds when I got to the Mayo Clinic
1172
01:10:58.399 --> 01:11:02.359
on Tuesday. So I ruled that out, but instead I
1173
01:11:02.399 --> 01:11:05.600
did end up I didn't actually play any golf golf.
1174
01:11:05.960 --> 01:11:08.399
I went and played. It's not top golf, but it's
1175
01:11:08.399 --> 01:11:14.000
the other subsidiary of theirs that they've got, and that
1176
01:11:14.199 --> 01:11:17.840
sucked that I was not feeling good and I probably
1177
01:11:17.880 --> 01:11:20.279
shouldn't have done it anyway because I wasn't feeling good
1178
01:11:20.319 --> 01:11:23.119
and my body was sore. So I was like, you
1179
01:11:23.119 --> 01:11:24.800
know what, I got nothing else to do, Let's go
1180
01:11:24.840 --> 01:11:26.960
ahead and just let's go play. And I played and
1181
01:11:27.239 --> 01:11:30.840
kind of regretted it. I really did. Ended up playing
1182
01:11:30.840 --> 01:11:34.760
one of the virtual golf courses and played the worst
1183
01:11:35.039 --> 01:11:39.119
game that I've ever played since I have been playing golf.
1184
01:11:39.359 --> 01:11:43.960
I mean, it was, it was bad. So now I
1185
01:11:44.000 --> 01:11:45.239
think what I need to do is get a new
1186
01:11:45.239 --> 01:11:47.600
golf coach. Ever since I got my new golf clubs,
1187
01:11:47.880 --> 01:11:50.600
forget about it. It's like maybe I just need to
1188
01:11:50.640 --> 01:11:53.199
revert back to my old clubs, bring the old game
1189
01:11:53.279 --> 01:11:55.720
back or something. I don't know either way, coming off
1190
01:11:55.800 --> 01:11:59.600
the top of the hour, we do have the crew
1191
01:11:59.680 --> 01:12:01.640
Linda the Cope, and I'm sure that the rest of
1192
01:12:01.680 --> 01:12:03.119
the gang will also join us on the phone as
1193
01:12:03.119 --> 01:12:06.920
well from Warrior Beach Retreat. If you don't know what
1194
01:12:06.960 --> 01:12:10.039
the Warrior Beach Retreat is, we'll get into the details
1195
01:12:10.079 --> 01:12:12.119
of a bit a quickie on this. It's basically a
1196
01:12:13.840 --> 01:12:17.880
retreat for some of our wounded warriors and their caregivers
1197
01:12:17.920 --> 01:12:19.840
that we do here in Panama City Beach. It's been
1198
01:12:19.880 --> 01:12:24.439
going on now for the bottom Golf There's so many
1199
01:12:24.479 --> 01:12:28.600
things I'm gonna I'm gonna let that one go. But
1200
01:12:28.960 --> 01:12:31.039
it's an event that we've been doing here and on
1201
01:12:31.079 --> 01:12:35.159
Panama City Beach now for fourteen to fifteen years. It's
1202
01:12:35.159 --> 01:12:37.720
a great event for our wounded warriors that we have
1203
01:12:37.800 --> 01:12:40.399
out there. It's a local thing, it's not affiliated with
1204
01:12:40.439 --> 01:12:43.479
any of the big guys, so it's an amazing experience.
1205
01:12:43.560 --> 01:12:46.399
So we will be talking about that coming up at
1206
01:12:46.439 --> 01:12:48.239
the top of the hour of the meantime, we are
1207
01:12:48.239 --> 01:12:52.680
in date number three of the shutdown, and whether or
1208
01:12:52.680 --> 01:12:55.079
not we will see any relief on this, I don't know.
1209
01:12:56.039 --> 01:12:58.840
I'm willing to bet not. I'm willing to bet that
1210
01:12:59.479 --> 01:13:02.840
we probably won't see a recovery from the shutdown until
1211
01:13:03.359 --> 01:13:08.000
probably sometime next week. I think that's probably what we're
1212
01:13:08.000 --> 01:13:10.840
gonna see. But as we also see, you know, the
1213
01:13:11.159 --> 01:13:14.600
the Democrats coming out and calling out Donald Trump with
1214
01:13:14.720 --> 01:13:17.880
him being unhinged and everything else. Bernie Sanders now jumping
1215
01:13:17.920 --> 01:13:21.119
into this too, and he was on MSNBC's All in
1216
01:13:22.000 --> 01:13:26.439
Over last night, and when he was talking with Chris Hayes,
1217
01:13:26.520 --> 01:13:29.520
Chris said, you know, you've been You've been in You've
1218
01:13:29.520 --> 01:13:32.199
served in Congress, in the Senate, You've served through a
1219
01:13:32.279 --> 01:13:35.760
number of different administrations with different presidents. I've covered a
1220
01:13:35.840 --> 01:13:38.119
number of shutdowns. I've never seen a president during a
1221
01:13:38.119 --> 01:13:41.800
shutdown kind of gloating about the ability to punish people
1222
01:13:41.960 --> 01:13:44.319
or take stuff away from the people in the states
1223
01:13:44.680 --> 01:13:48.039
that didn't vote for him. Have you seen that before?
1224
01:13:49.399 --> 01:13:51.199
And of course, what he's referring to is the fact
1225
01:13:51.199 --> 01:13:53.439
that Donald Trump now looking at things and saying, look,
1226
01:13:54.119 --> 01:13:56.159
now we can do some cuts that need to be
1227
01:13:56.199 --> 01:14:00.079
done because we can't get it through Congress. Now, this
1228
01:13:59.920 --> 01:14:04.760
is not a and I love how they're framing this that, oh,
1229
01:14:05.039 --> 01:14:08.640
he's going to punish the people who didn't vote for him. Now,
1230
01:14:08.840 --> 01:14:11.720
the punishment, by the way, is when those of us
1231
01:14:11.760 --> 01:14:14.399
in red states, our tax dollars have to go to
1232
01:14:14.479 --> 01:14:20.119
something that is not effective in blue states. That's that's
1233
01:14:20.119 --> 01:14:24.079
a problem. We got an issue with that. But of
1234
01:14:24.079 --> 01:14:26.800
course Bernie Sanders comes back and he's like, oh, of
1235
01:14:26.840 --> 01:14:29.640
course I have you know, Chris, we're living in an
1236
01:14:29.760 --> 01:14:35.560
unprecedented dangerous moment, possibly the worst crisis in America since
1237
01:14:35.600 --> 01:14:43.199
a Civil war. Holy hell, are you? It's the worst
1238
01:14:43.279 --> 01:14:47.279
crisis in America since the Civil War, according to Bernie Sanders,
1239
01:14:47.279 --> 01:14:50.159
because of the fact that our government shut down because
1240
01:14:50.199 --> 01:14:54.000
the Republicans didn't want to spend an additional one point
1241
01:14:54.039 --> 01:14:58.399
five trillion dollars that we cannot afford, and also didn't
1242
01:14:58.399 --> 01:15:04.560
want to give money and healthcare expenses to illegals. So
1243
01:15:04.760 --> 01:15:08.760
because of that, according to Bernie Sanders, we are now
1244
01:15:08.840 --> 01:15:14.279
in the most unprecedentedly dangerous moment, possibly the worst crisis
1245
01:15:14.319 --> 01:15:19.600
in America since the Civil War. I would say this
1246
01:15:19.640 --> 01:15:22.439
little thing that happened back in the early nineteen hundred there.
1247
01:15:23.520 --> 01:15:28.079
What does that thing called the Great something? Oh yeah,
1248
01:15:28.119 --> 01:15:31.560
great Depression. I think that might have been worse, even
1249
01:15:31.560 --> 01:15:33.960
though the name had great in it. I think that
1250
01:15:34.119 --> 01:15:37.560
was a little bit worse, maybe more than just a
1251
01:15:37.560 --> 01:15:42.760
little bit, but definitely worse than the unprecedentally dangerous moment
1252
01:15:43.039 --> 01:15:46.119
that we are in right now here in America that
1253
01:15:46.159 --> 01:15:48.560
we are living in. But he went on to say
1254
01:15:48.560 --> 01:15:52.199
that you have a president who's acting unconstitutionally and illegally.
1255
01:15:52.479 --> 01:15:56.000
Guess what. These projects have been appropriated, They have been
1256
01:15:56.039 --> 01:15:59.520
signed by a president. It is legal to rescind them,
1257
01:16:00.079 --> 01:16:03.520
illegal to rescind them. And then basically to say, people
1258
01:16:03.520 --> 01:16:06.720
in Vermont, in New York and California, oh, you didn't
1259
01:16:06.760 --> 01:16:09.079
vote for Donald Trump, Well, we're going to take away
1260
01:16:09.119 --> 01:16:13.960
funding that was supposed to go to your state. Illegal, outrageous, unconstitutional.
1261
01:16:14.600 --> 01:16:16.159
And then he continues on saying that you got a
1262
01:16:16.199 --> 01:16:20.359
president who's acting in an unprecedented way, who is a
1263
01:16:20.640 --> 01:16:24.199
megalomaniac who wants more and more power for himself and
1264
01:16:24.359 --> 01:16:29.520
his oligarchy friends. I want everybody to understand that, and
1265
01:16:29.600 --> 01:16:32.479
you also to understand that if we can bankrupt this country.
1266
01:16:33.119 --> 01:16:36.800
There will be breadlines and soup lines for everybody. Nobody
1267
01:16:36.800 --> 01:16:39.960
will go hungry. It'll be amazing. I have been to
1268
01:16:40.119 --> 01:16:43.399
Soviet Russia where they had breadlines and it was delicious.
1269
01:16:43.800 --> 01:16:49.279
The bread was made every day and the soup was yummy. Bernie,
1270
01:16:49.319 --> 01:16:52.760
sit down and shut up. I mean seriously, because the
1271
01:16:52.840 --> 01:16:54.840
things that Donald Trump is going after, like the eight
1272
01:16:55.000 --> 01:17:03.760
billion dollars in green energy projects, green energy projects that
1273
01:17:03.840 --> 01:17:07.359
don't work. Let's look at the Gigantic project right now
1274
01:17:07.359 --> 01:17:10.760
where it was it in California, the big solar plant
1275
01:17:10.800 --> 01:17:12.640
that had that was out there. We've seen it in
1276
01:17:12.720 --> 01:17:15.159
movies too. It's the one of the the big towers
1277
01:17:15.159 --> 01:17:16.640
that are all up over the place. What was the
1278
01:17:16.680 --> 01:17:19.640
movie we've seen that in. I think it was in
1279
01:17:19.640 --> 01:17:22.600
one of the James Bond movies too. But there's there's
1280
01:17:22.640 --> 01:17:25.000
like these these towers that are up and it's surrounded
1281
01:17:25.000 --> 01:17:27.520
by solar panels and reflective things all over the ground,
1282
01:17:27.760 --> 01:17:29.640
and it was supposed to be a solar thing to
1283
01:17:29.760 --> 01:17:34.079
generate electricity. Well after billions of dollars that have been
1284
01:17:34.159 --> 01:17:37.359
dumped into this thing, it's not producing anything and it's
1285
01:17:37.399 --> 01:17:39.840
not working, and they just shut it down after a
1286
01:17:39.880 --> 01:17:43.560
decade of that. This is the type of stuff that
1287
01:17:43.760 --> 01:17:47.680
is part of that eight billion dollar green energy initiatives
1288
01:17:48.439 --> 01:17:54.720
that they shut down. They're not going after just the
1289
01:17:54.760 --> 01:17:58.279
regular people and things that affect everybody's everyday lives and
1290
01:17:58.319 --> 01:18:01.600
in these states, No, they're going after the things that
1291
01:18:01.680 --> 01:18:05.039
do not work in that are of fantasy, that are
1292
01:18:05.079 --> 01:18:09.439
spending billions of dollars of the American tax payer money. Now,
1293
01:18:09.479 --> 01:18:11.359
if we were able to Bernie, and I know you
1294
01:18:11.399 --> 01:18:15.000
don't understand this because it's complicated and its money, but
1295
01:18:15.159 --> 01:18:18.239
if we were able to not spend money on things
1296
01:18:18.279 --> 01:18:21.079
that are not effective, like solar farms out in the
1297
01:18:21.119 --> 01:18:25.000
middle of the desert that doesn't do anything, then that
1298
01:18:25.039 --> 01:18:28.119
means that we the people would be charged less in
1299
01:18:28.359 --> 01:18:31.880
taxes because you wouldn't need to spend so much. And
1300
01:18:31.920 --> 01:18:34.640
then if you were charging less in taxes, then that
1301
01:18:34.680 --> 01:18:38.600
means we the people of Vermont and New York in
1302
01:18:38.680 --> 01:18:42.119
California would have more money in their pockets to be
1303
01:18:42.159 --> 01:18:44.600
able to do the things that Oh ready for this one,
1304
01:18:44.680 --> 01:18:49.079
hang on, this is gonna hurt they want to do.
1305
01:18:51.800 --> 01:18:53.760
And I love it when you see things like the
1306
01:18:53.800 --> 01:18:58.199
politicians in places like Massachusetts where they get out there
1307
01:18:58.239 --> 01:19:01.760
and they keep spreading this, and I honestly don't know
1308
01:19:01.800 --> 01:19:04.000
where the poll was done. And I have seen this
1309
01:19:04.680 --> 01:19:06.760
several times. And I can tell you as somebody who
1310
01:19:06.800 --> 01:19:11.800
is number one from Massachusetts and two I have lived in. God,
1311
01:19:11.840 --> 01:19:16.520
how many states have I lived in? Now Here nine,
1312
01:19:17.159 --> 01:19:20.279
ten or eleven different states that I have lived in
1313
01:19:20.279 --> 01:19:23.319
in my adult life. And I can tell you right
1314
01:19:23.359 --> 01:19:28.000
now that as much as I love Massachusetts, beautiful state
1315
01:19:28.119 --> 01:19:31.000
really is at more than half the people suck there.
1316
01:19:32.520 --> 01:19:35.039
But when I live in other states where I am
1317
01:19:35.079 --> 01:19:39.399
not taxed to death like in Massachusetts, things are better.
1318
01:19:40.520 --> 01:19:43.880
Like I lived in Alabama, I lived in Mississippi and
1319
01:19:44.000 --> 01:19:46.479
things were okay. I moved to Florida didn't have to
1320
01:19:46.479 --> 01:19:48.039
pay any state income tax.
1321
01:19:48.479 --> 01:19:49.000
Huh.
1322
01:19:49.079 --> 01:19:51.239
Look at that. That's a lot more money in my pocket.
1323
01:19:52.000 --> 01:19:54.119
That's money that I can decide what I want to
1324
01:19:54.119 --> 01:19:58.159
do with it. That's fantastic. In Massachusetts, not only do
1325
01:19:58.239 --> 01:20:00.239
they have the income tax, but they we have the
1326
01:20:00.279 --> 01:20:02.760
tax on the income tax, the tax on taxing the
1327
01:20:02.760 --> 01:20:05.800
income tax, and then there's the tax of filing the tax,
1328
01:20:06.159 --> 01:20:07.960
and the tax for the paper that was filed on
1329
01:20:08.000 --> 01:20:10.319
the taxes. And then there was a tax for taxing
1330
01:20:10.359 --> 01:20:12.640
the taxes, and then there's a tax just because of
1331
01:20:12.680 --> 01:20:16.279
the fact that we taxed you. They call it Taxachusetts
1332
01:20:16.319 --> 01:20:19.119
for a reason. And when you start taking more and
1333
01:20:19.159 --> 01:20:21.479
more of the people's money away and not giving them
1334
01:20:21.479 --> 01:20:25.560
anything in return, I mean, come on, I don't want
1335
01:20:25.600 --> 01:20:29.359
bread and soup. I want to make the decisions for myself.
1336
01:20:30.000 --> 01:20:32.000
If I want to go get a steak, I want
1337
01:20:32.000 --> 01:20:34.039
to go get a steak. If I want to go
1338
01:20:34.199 --> 01:20:38.279
have you know, a nice bowl of soup, I'll go
1339
01:20:38.359 --> 01:20:40.880
have a bowl of soup. I don't want the government
1340
01:20:41.319 --> 01:20:43.760
forcing me into that position. And that's exactly what the
1341
01:20:43.800 --> 01:20:47.319
Democrats will end up doing. We're spending more and more
1342
01:20:47.359 --> 01:20:49.840
of our money we cannot afford, in addition to one
1343
01:20:49.880 --> 01:20:52.680
point five trillion dollars. As a matter of fact, we
1344
01:20:52.720 --> 01:20:56.039
should be cutting one point five trillion dollars out of
1345
01:20:56.079 --> 01:20:58.239
our budget so that we can start paying some of
1346
01:20:58.279 --> 01:21:01.439
our debt. But the Democrats don't get it, and neither
1347
01:21:01.479 --> 01:21:05.680
does Bernie. But you have to understand. The bread, it's delicious,
1348
01:21:05.840 --> 01:21:08.079
it was made last night, doesn't have a lot of
1349
01:21:08.159 --> 01:21:10.479
ingredients in it because we can't afford it. But you
1350
01:21:10.560 --> 01:21:15.840
get it for free, and we have to stop the oligarchies.
1351
01:21:16.640 --> 01:21:20.720
To stop the oligarchies. Uh. Speaking of which, by the way,
1352
01:21:20.720 --> 01:21:23.520
can anybody point them out in the Republican Party right now?
1353
01:21:24.800 --> 01:21:30.159
Can anybody point out the Donald Trump Republican oligarchies who
1354
01:21:30.199 --> 01:21:35.000
are becoming wealthier right now? Anybody do it? Because yes,
1355
01:21:35.479 --> 01:21:39.720
we do have people like Scott Bessett, who's running the Treasury,
1356
01:21:40.239 --> 01:21:45.159
very wealthy man. We have several other very wealthy individuals
1357
01:21:45.359 --> 01:21:49.279
that are in Donald Trump's cabinet, all of which have
1358
01:21:49.560 --> 01:21:54.319
left their multimillion dollar jobs for a job that pays
1359
01:21:54.319 --> 01:21:57.359
a couple hundred thousand dollars a year and you have
1360
01:21:57.439 --> 01:22:00.520
to be attacked in public and it's stressful and the
1361
01:22:00.560 --> 01:22:05.560
whole nine yards, and they're the problem. Isn't it kind
1362
01:22:05.600 --> 01:22:10.760
of odd? How as Donald Trump and his administration dig
1363
01:22:10.880 --> 01:22:14.279
into all of the waste and fraud and abuse that happened,
1364
01:22:14.279 --> 01:22:18.039
and we shut down programs like the USAID that was
1365
01:22:18.079 --> 01:22:23.479
spending hundreds of billions of dollars on things, and all
1366
01:22:23.520 --> 01:22:26.840
of a sudden, there are Democrats that are that are
1367
01:22:26.880 --> 01:22:30.680
complaining that they're losing their money, and Democrats that are
1368
01:22:30.720 --> 01:22:33.279
not becoming as wealthy as they once were.
1369
01:22:33.279 --> 01:22:33.640
I want to.
1370
01:22:34.479 --> 01:22:37.079
And it's also kind of amazing too that with all
1371
01:22:37.119 --> 01:22:39.520
of these programs that are going on where there are
1372
01:22:39.600 --> 01:22:43.319
people that are being paid enormous amounts of money through
1373
01:22:43.640 --> 01:22:47.840
projects like the USAID, and about seventy something percent of
1374
01:22:47.880 --> 01:22:55.159
the wealth in America is belonging to the Democrats. So
1375
01:22:55.760 --> 01:22:58.199
if you want to start talking about the oligarchies, let's
1376
01:22:58.239 --> 01:23:03.119
talk about the Democrat all archies who have benefited from
1377
01:23:03.239 --> 01:23:07.000
all of these programs that have spent billions and billions
1378
01:23:07.039 --> 01:23:11.239
of dollars. Let's think about all of the Democrats that
1379
01:23:11.319 --> 01:23:16.960
got very wealthy during COVID. So Bernie, save it with
1380
01:23:17.000 --> 01:23:22.279
the oligarchy thing. By the way, another person who mysteriously
1381
01:23:23.319 --> 01:23:26.439
became very wealthy at one hundred and seventy four thousand
1382
01:23:26.479 --> 01:23:29.560
dollars a year, Well, you have to understand, I wrote
1383
01:23:29.600 --> 01:23:33.039
a book, and I wrote a book and bought multiple
1384
01:23:33.039 --> 01:23:37.680
houses and cars. It's my money, leave it alone. Okay,
1385
01:23:38.600 --> 01:23:42.159
then it's our money. Leave our damn money alone. It's
1386
01:23:42.199 --> 01:23:43.760
a Red Friday brought to you by our friends over
1387
01:23:43.760 --> 01:23:46.239
at American Charlie Grill and Taverna, where we remember everyone
1388
01:23:46.239 --> 01:23:48.920
deployed on a Red Friday, and of course that includes
1389
01:23:49.000 --> 01:23:51.279
our members, the men and women, the brave men and
1390
01:23:51.319 --> 01:23:54.039
women of our ice who was out there defending our nation.
1391
01:23:54.119 --> 01:23:56.720
We thank you for what you're doing. Keep it up
1392
01:23:56.840 --> 01:23:58.520
because we've got your back. We got to take a
1393
01:23:58.560 --> 01:24:13.760
quick break. We'll be right back out. That's right, all right,
1394
01:24:13.800 --> 01:24:16.439
Welcome back to the show. Good morning, and happy red Friday,
1395
01:24:16.479 --> 01:24:18.319
brought to you by our friends in American Charlie A
1396
01:24:18.319 --> 01:24:21.199
Grill and Tavern. We remember everyone deployed. Go check them
1397
01:24:21.239 --> 01:24:22.920
out this weekend for their new menu items, say, and
1398
01:24:22.960 --> 01:24:26.479
their new extended hours. And of course it's football and
1399
01:24:26.520 --> 01:24:28.439
they got plenty of screen streeting to watch the games
1400
01:24:28.520 --> 01:24:32.920
as well, So go check that out. Okay, okay, So
1401
01:24:33.039 --> 01:24:35.239
anybody here about the latest one with Harvard. I don't
1402
01:24:35.279 --> 01:24:39.560
know why these people cannot learn their lesson. I really can't.
1403
01:24:39.560 --> 01:24:44.760
Harvard University. Now, let's put some of this into context.
1404
01:24:44.880 --> 01:24:46.960
You think about Harvard University, what do you think about
1405
01:24:47.079 --> 01:24:51.199
You think about the elite, You think about the Fortune
1406
01:24:51.199 --> 01:24:55.079
five hundred companies with the CEOs of those companies. You
1407
01:24:55.119 --> 01:24:58.880
think about the top notch lawyers. You think about all
1408
01:24:58.880 --> 01:25:03.319
of the elite of our educated. Right, Harvard University now
1409
01:25:03.359 --> 01:25:11.039
has has hired a drag queen named Lahorevajistan, who is,
1410
01:25:11.079 --> 01:25:14.159
by the way, a visiting professor. So it's not like
1411
01:25:14.760 --> 01:25:16.439
they just went down the street and they saw a
1412
01:25:16.439 --> 01:25:18.399
show and they said, hey, you want to come do
1413
01:25:18.439 --> 01:25:21.720
a class. No, this is somebody who's actually a professor
1414
01:25:21.760 --> 01:25:26.279
at another university who's going to teach a course coming
1415
01:25:26.359 --> 01:25:29.479
up in this this spring semester, and they're going to
1416
01:25:29.520 --> 01:25:35.239
be teaching a course on the TV show RuPaul's Drag Race.
1417
01:25:38.239 --> 01:25:43.800
My only question is this, how the hell does that
1418
01:25:44.000 --> 01:25:49.159
apply to anything that a Harvard graduate would be moving
1419
01:25:49.199 --> 01:25:55.079
on to doing. Now let me let me let me
1420
01:25:55.159 --> 01:25:58.600
put it in this Okay, So, hey, welcome in for
1421
01:25:58.720 --> 01:26:02.199
the interview. I have a seat. Okay, So Harvard grad. Awesome,
1422
01:26:02.239 --> 01:26:06.279
that's great. Let's see what are your business management's Oh
1423
01:26:07.119 --> 01:26:12.079
you took the Ruphaul Drag Show course. Oh you're going
1424
01:26:12.119 --> 01:26:15.239
to be you know what? Hey, excuse me a second,
1425
01:26:15.439 --> 01:26:17.960
cancel all the rest of the interviews. We found our
1426
01:26:18.039 --> 01:26:21.399
winner over here. No, no, no, you don't understand this
1427
01:26:21.439 --> 01:26:25.279
one took the Rupehaul Drag Show course. We got a winner.
1428
01:26:25.600 --> 01:26:27.840
Oh my god, this is amazing. When can you start?
1429
01:26:30.800 --> 01:26:31.279
That is.
1430
01:26:32.840 --> 01:26:36.840
Just as bad as these colleges which I believe Harvard's
1431
01:26:36.840 --> 01:26:47.680
also doing this one a course on Taylor Swift. The
1432
01:26:47.760 --> 01:26:51.199
Ivy League schools have turned into the poison type. You're right,
1433
01:26:51.319 --> 01:26:57.840
they have. It's the poison Ivy League schools. Now, I
1434
01:26:57.840 --> 01:27:05.680
can understand doing a class on the drag thing, on
1435
01:27:05.760 --> 01:27:10.399
the transgender thing, where you look into it and you know,
1436
01:27:10.560 --> 01:27:14.439
actually study that type of stuff. I totally get that,
1437
01:27:15.319 --> 01:27:17.920
because this way you could you could actually do a
1438
01:27:18.000 --> 01:27:23.479
course where you try to analyze the life of somebody
1439
01:27:23.560 --> 01:27:28.479
who has gone transgender, look into the medical aspect of it,
1440
01:27:28.560 --> 01:27:31.199
and there's so much that you could actually do. I
1441
01:27:31.199 --> 01:27:33.640
mean seriously, on a serious note, there's a lot that
1442
01:27:33.680 --> 01:27:35.880
you could actually do if you were to teach a
1443
01:27:36.000 --> 01:27:39.600
class on the transgender lifestyle. If you did it right.
1444
01:27:41.399 --> 01:27:43.439
When you when you go down and you analyze the
1445
01:27:43.720 --> 01:27:46.880
mental health, you analyze what people are doing and how
1446
01:27:46.920 --> 01:27:49.640
they're doing things to their body, what's affecting them, that
1447
01:27:49.680 --> 01:27:54.479
would make sense. But to teach a course on Rule
1448
01:27:54.600 --> 01:27:58.319
Paul's Drag Race, which is a TV show, it's a
1449
01:27:58.359 --> 01:28:03.680
reality ish to TV show, and Harvard is going to
1450
01:28:04.239 --> 01:28:08.680
have a visiting professor come in and do that. By
1451
01:28:08.680 --> 01:28:12.399
the way, the visiting professor is one from Tufts University,
1452
01:28:12.880 --> 01:28:17.600
where he taught theater, dance, and performance studies. And we'll
1453
01:28:17.640 --> 01:28:21.159
also be teaching a Studies of Gender and Sexuality program
1454
01:28:21.640 --> 01:28:26.479
thanks to the Harvard Gender and Sexuality Caucus. By the way,
1455
01:28:27.079 --> 01:28:29.359
there is a difference, and I'm gonna point this out,
1456
01:28:29.359 --> 01:28:34.239
there's a difference between a drag queen and transgender. A
1457
01:28:34.399 --> 01:28:38.119
drag queen is a regular dude who goes off and
1458
01:28:38.159 --> 01:28:41.800
gets dressed up like a woman. A transgender is somebody
1459
01:28:41.880 --> 01:28:44.760
that will transform their body to be the other way around.
1460
01:28:45.399 --> 01:28:48.920
This person is not a drag queen because he's got
1461
01:28:48.920 --> 01:28:51.600
a he's got a set of barrels on him that
1462
01:28:51.680 --> 01:28:55.960
are impressive. That is not something typically of a drag
1463
01:28:57.000 --> 01:28:59.399
And with that we'll be right back. Good morning.
1464
01:29:07.760 --> 01:29:10.920
Brian Russell's name, you know the brand.
1465
01:29:13.640 --> 01:29:20.359
Lining up the airways in this one, melting snow face
1466
01:29:20.720 --> 01:29:25.159
with a fiery head, talking truth. You can't always stand
1467
01:29:31.439 --> 01:29:35.640
fast show from coast to coast. Got the facts, but
1468
01:29:35.840 --> 01:29:38.600
it ain't no boast can't get up the change and
1469
01:29:38.760 --> 01:29:41.119
give it toast to the man who.
1470
01:29:41.079 --> 01:29:44.399
Roasts the most. Knock it off. It's rust on me
1471
01:29:45.119 --> 01:29:50.039
let in lack care of scenes. Did you mind, No, don't.
1472
01:29:49.600 --> 01:30:02.600
Free frame in the top show Silver Street.
1473
01:30:00.960 --> 01:30:03.199
So Florence, that's Stark the plane.
1474
01:30:04.119 --> 01:30:08.960
Nothing never stays the same, breaking down loads of shame.
1475
01:30:10.039 --> 01:30:14.000
Ryan Roust is here, claim boy says rise of Thing
1476
01:30:14.239 --> 01:30:19.960
and so throw the censor to the court. Alassians. Cheap
1477
01:30:20.039 --> 01:30:23.920
the score for Brian's battling in this war, knocking off
1478
01:30:23.920 --> 01:30:29.239
it rust on me, puny rylock chair Saints, did you
1479
01:30:29.399 --> 01:30:30.560
mind o Joe.
1480
01:30:30.560 --> 01:30:34.680
Free ring in the social Silver streams.
1481
01:30:43.119 --> 01:30:45.039
All right, welcome back to out number three of the show.
1482
01:30:45.159 --> 01:30:46.880
Good morning, and thanks so much for waking up with
1483
01:30:46.960 --> 01:30:49.000
us here on the Florida Man Radio Network and of
1484
01:30:49.000 --> 01:30:53.000
course also streaming line on Rumble and Wimkin and uh
1485
01:30:53.199 --> 01:30:55.760
want to welcome for the first time on the show
1486
01:30:55.840 --> 01:30:58.640
since we've been on Florida Man Radio. Been a longtime
1487
01:30:58.680 --> 01:31:02.039
guest of the show. But the Kope Clan, that's what
1488
01:31:02.039 --> 01:31:03.680
I'm going to call you guys because it's easier because
1489
01:31:03.680 --> 01:31:06.720
I know that there's multiple yew here. But you guys,
1490
01:31:07.319 --> 01:31:09.640
Linda and Philip and the rest of the game. You
1491
01:31:09.680 --> 01:31:12.319
guys are in charge of the Warrior Beach Retreat. You
1492
01:31:12.359 --> 01:31:16.560
founded that here in Panama City. And for those that
1493
01:31:16.600 --> 01:31:18.319
are listening on the network that I've never heard of
1494
01:31:18.319 --> 01:31:21.399
this because obviously you've been in an element of Panama
1495
01:31:21.439 --> 01:31:23.640
City for a long time. But we now have the
1496
01:31:23.680 --> 01:31:26.279
audience out in for Walton Beach and then the audience
1497
01:31:26.319 --> 01:31:31.399
out towards our east throughout Florida. Tell us what exactly
1498
01:31:31.520 --> 01:31:32.760
is the Warrior Beach Retreat.
1499
01:31:34.319 --> 01:31:36.880
Hello everyone, and Brian, thank you so much for having
1500
01:31:36.880 --> 01:31:39.439
me and my husband, John's still in bed on the show.
1501
01:31:39.560 --> 01:31:43.520
We appreciate it. We started this about sixteen years ago
1502
01:31:44.000 --> 01:31:48.479
after our son, Army Sergeant Joshua Cope lost both legs
1503
01:31:48.479 --> 01:31:52.119
above the knee and wounded his hands buying Ied Blast
1504
01:31:52.159 --> 01:31:56.760
and Baghdad, Iraq, and we saw how war affects the family.
1505
01:31:56.920 --> 01:31:59.800
You know, it's not just a veteran, but especially the caregiver.
1506
01:32:00.319 --> 01:32:03.479
So we began doing retreats twice a year for a
1507
01:32:03.520 --> 01:32:07.520
week for combat wounded warriors and their spouses or caregivers.
1508
01:32:07.760 --> 01:32:10.720
Sometimes we'll have a parent come with the veterans and
1509
01:32:10.760 --> 01:32:14.319
they come from all across the country and it's just
1510
01:32:14.359 --> 01:32:18.199
the time to reconnect, get away from in laws, outlaws, kids,
1511
01:32:18.279 --> 01:32:23.119
doctor's appointments, and just to heal. And we have now
1512
01:32:23.159 --> 01:32:26.039
we have eight couples that come from all across the
1513
01:32:26.079 --> 01:32:30.920
country and they literally heal each other because they could
1514
01:32:30.920 --> 01:32:35.760
talk and communicate with what they're going through because war
1515
01:32:35.920 --> 01:32:38.720
is hell as a mom with a son severely wounded,
1516
01:32:39.079 --> 01:32:42.680
and the ramifications are for a NiFe time. And we
1517
01:32:42.800 --> 01:32:46.000
also do smaller retreats twice a year. You come on
1518
01:32:46.039 --> 01:32:48.439
a big retreat once than a smaller retreat once to
1519
01:32:48.479 --> 01:32:52.960
continue to strengthen your marriage. And we're not affiliated, as
1520
01:32:52.960 --> 01:32:56.359
you know, Brian, with Wounded Warrior Project, not at all affiliated.
1521
01:32:56.600 --> 01:32:59.039
We are a local five O one C three charity
1522
01:32:59.439 --> 01:33:01.840
right here in Bay County.
1523
01:33:01.920 --> 01:33:04.920
Yeah. Yeah, And has it really been sixteen years? Because
1524
01:33:04.920 --> 01:33:06.520
I was I was talking about it earlier. I thought
1525
01:33:06.520 --> 01:33:09.239
it was like fourteen fifteen years, But man, it just
1526
01:33:10.840 --> 01:33:11.479
time flies.
1527
01:33:11.760 --> 01:33:15.000
Yeah, time flies. And you've been part of it, Brian,
1528
01:33:15.039 --> 01:33:16.920
I think since from the.
1529
01:33:16.920 --> 01:33:19.119
Gig go and you've been there with I think like
1530
01:33:19.199 --> 01:33:20.800
year two is I think the first time that I
1531
01:33:21.279 --> 01:33:22.439
got involved in that one.
1532
01:33:22.520 --> 01:33:25.039
But yeah, and it yeah, broyh.
1533
01:33:25.319 --> 01:33:29.520
Yeah, you can cry, Brian's.
1534
01:33:28.239 --> 01:33:31.119
I'm not a cry baby. I could just be sensitive
1535
01:33:31.199 --> 01:33:35.840
at the appropriate times. And you know, when when you
1536
01:33:35.880 --> 01:33:38.279
see the stuff that you guys do with the Worry
1537
01:33:38.319 --> 01:33:41.520
Beach Retreat. This is one of these things that for
1538
01:33:41.600 --> 01:33:45.039
most people, they don't understand what really goes on because
1539
01:33:45.079 --> 01:33:48.960
what most people will see is the ceremony and the
1540
01:33:49.039 --> 01:33:51.039
big parade that is open to the public, and this
1541
01:33:51.119 --> 01:33:54.039
year it's going to be on November sixth, so mark
1542
01:33:54.119 --> 01:33:56.079
that down to your calendar. We'll get more into that
1543
01:33:56.119 --> 01:33:58.760
here in a second. But what people don't realize is
1544
01:33:58.920 --> 01:34:01.520
what goes on behind the closed doors. And like you said,
1545
01:34:01.520 --> 01:34:04.680
you're you're all about strengthening the marriages and giving it
1546
01:34:04.880 --> 01:34:07.520
an outlet to to get away from the normal life
1547
01:34:07.520 --> 01:34:10.640
and to help out and everything, and what people don't
1548
01:34:10.680 --> 01:34:15.640
see on the background is the absolute emotional aspect of it.
1549
01:34:16.439 --> 01:34:21.239
And again for those of us that literally we're not warriors,
1550
01:34:22.039 --> 01:34:23.640
we're not and there's a lot of people that have
1551
01:34:23.680 --> 01:34:26.640
been involved in this that don't have children that are
1552
01:34:26.680 --> 01:34:30.159
in the military. Unlike you. We also don't have people
1553
01:34:30.159 --> 01:34:33.840
who have been injured in combat. So we're just there
1554
01:34:33.880 --> 01:34:37.399
to help out and to see what these people go
1555
01:34:37.600 --> 01:34:42.239
through on the really a spiritual healing and the experience
1556
01:34:42.279 --> 01:34:47.159
that they get. You can't help, but at least once
1557
01:34:47.279 --> 01:34:50.600
or twice when you're there, tear up and if not,
1558
01:34:50.760 --> 01:34:54.279
have to excuse yourself. It's happened to everybody that's been involved.
1559
01:34:54.399 --> 01:34:56.199
I mean it really truly has.
1560
01:34:56.920 --> 01:35:00.960
We put prayer and fasting honestly in these events that
1561
01:35:01.000 --> 01:35:03.720
we host, and we pray for God to send each
1562
01:35:03.800 --> 01:35:06.680
couple that's supposed to be here. And it's so neat
1563
01:35:06.680 --> 01:35:09.920
to see the dynamic when they come together. How wow,
1564
01:35:10.640 --> 01:35:13.800
because they connect her, they've known each other, even they
1565
01:35:13.920 --> 01:35:16.840
served in war together, because they don't know who's coming
1566
01:35:16.960 --> 01:35:20.720
until they get here. But there's so many unseen wounds
1567
01:35:20.760 --> 01:35:23.439
of war that none of us can even comprehend that
1568
01:35:23.520 --> 01:35:26.800
have never been there. And you know, my dad was
1569
01:35:26.800 --> 01:35:29.279
in the military, have family that was in the military,
1570
01:35:29.640 --> 01:35:33.119
but until our son Josh was there, and you know,
1571
01:35:33.199 --> 01:35:36.520
we're I was with him at Walter Reed and oh
1572
01:35:36.560 --> 01:35:39.439
my gosh, so many you know stories of like a
1573
01:35:39.479 --> 01:35:42.680
woman coming in and taking off her wedding band, laying
1574
01:35:42.720 --> 01:35:45.560
it down, saying I did not sign up for this,
1575
01:35:45.880 --> 01:35:48.880
and walking out the door with her husband laying there,
1576
01:35:49.680 --> 01:35:52.159
you know, because we were on the amputee floor at
1577
01:35:52.199 --> 01:35:55.720
Walter Reed and it just just broke my heart. And
1578
01:35:56.039 --> 01:36:00.520
people don't see from the outside what goes on in
1579
01:36:00.560 --> 01:36:03.399
the inside. And with his families deal with It's just
1580
01:36:03.920 --> 01:36:07.920
and it's a lifetime. You know, our son mentioned well,
1581
01:36:08.000 --> 01:36:10.880
his wife mentioned us about a month ago. You know,
1582
01:36:10.960 --> 01:36:14.239
he lost his legs. What about seventeen years ago they
1583
01:36:14.279 --> 01:36:17.079
got blown up, And it's a miracle he's alive because
1584
01:36:17.119 --> 01:36:20.399
he lost too much blood. But my brother, who was
1585
01:36:20.399 --> 01:36:23.279
a flight surgeon in the Air Force to actually called
1586
01:36:23.319 --> 01:36:26.279
ballade to give us. I knew his legs were gone
1587
01:36:26.319 --> 01:36:29.760
before his wife and she was in lonstool. He said, Linda,
1588
01:36:29.800 --> 01:36:33.399
the only reason Joshua is alive is because you fasted
1589
01:36:33.399 --> 01:36:35.680
and prayed for him as a mom, because he just
1590
01:36:35.760 --> 01:36:38.720
lost too much blood. He said, he lost too much blood.
1591
01:36:38.760 --> 01:36:41.319
So I just encourage every mother out there to always
1592
01:36:41.319 --> 01:36:44.000
pray for your kids, even if they're not in combat,
1593
01:36:44.079 --> 01:36:47.359
because it's not the same world we were raised in.
1594
01:36:47.880 --> 01:36:52.479
But it just, you know, it's just I'm just grateful
1595
01:36:52.520 --> 01:36:56.520
God gave us this vision to help thousands that have
1596
01:36:56.600 --> 01:36:59.239
come through here over the years to have hope and
1597
01:36:59.279 --> 01:37:03.600
healing to carry on and they can relate to each other.
1598
01:37:03.640 --> 01:37:05.960
You know, when you've been there and you've been in
1599
01:37:06.000 --> 01:37:08.960
the battlefield of fox All or whatever with other veterans
1600
01:37:09.159 --> 01:37:10.119
and you come together.
1601
01:37:11.039 --> 01:37:11.560
You get it.
1602
01:37:11.800 --> 01:37:13.399
Yeah, you know, you get it.
1603
01:37:13.439 --> 01:37:16.800
And yeah, and the interesting thing too about this event,
1604
01:37:16.960 --> 01:37:18.640
And I know that you pointed out that some of
1605
01:37:18.640 --> 01:37:21.560
them have served together, but there's a lot that just don't.
1606
01:37:21.760 --> 01:37:25.880
And there's a thing with military and milituitary people know this,
1607
01:37:25.920 --> 01:37:29.479
that there's a camaraderie with one another, and the camaraderie
1608
01:37:29.560 --> 01:37:33.039
that you see that gets developed there because we're not
1609
01:37:33.159 --> 01:37:36.560
talking about people that just went through battle together. We're
1610
01:37:36.560 --> 01:37:40.079
not talking about people who've gone through the wife leaving
1611
01:37:40.159 --> 01:37:42.439
them for whatever reason. We're talking about people who have
1612
01:37:42.520 --> 01:37:47.680
been emotionally hurt, physically hurt. It's a whole different level.
1613
01:37:47.920 --> 01:37:50.479
And to see the camaraderie build up. And you know,
1614
01:37:50.840 --> 01:37:53.880
I've been part of you guys for at least fourteen
1615
01:37:53.920 --> 01:37:57.039
fifteen years now, and there are people from the very
1616
01:37:57.079 --> 01:38:00.680
first one that I that I have done that I
1617
01:38:00.760 --> 01:38:03.760
still communicate with on a regular basis. And and I'm
1618
01:38:03.760 --> 01:38:05.920
not even a warrior. I was just there helping out,
1619
01:38:05.960 --> 01:38:08.880
hanging out with these people and chatting with them, and
1620
01:38:09.279 --> 01:38:11.640
I developed a relationship with some of them. And I've
1621
01:38:11.640 --> 01:38:15.560
seen the relationships that they have built amongst themselves and
1622
01:38:15.560 --> 01:38:18.399
and what it does, it really truly is amazing. And
1623
01:38:18.720 --> 01:38:22.239
to hear their stories and to see them bond with
1624
01:38:22.279 --> 01:38:24.720
each other. And again, most of what happens with the
1625
01:38:24.720 --> 01:38:29.079
Warrior Beach Retreat all happens behind closed doors, completely closed
1626
01:38:29.079 --> 01:38:31.399
to the public, because it's not about the public. It
1627
01:38:31.439 --> 01:38:34.600
is about these these warriors and you guys do some
1628
01:38:34.800 --> 01:38:39.119
amazing things of just it's really a mental therapy or
1629
01:38:39.119 --> 01:38:43.600
a spiritual therapy for them, and it's it's just great
1630
01:38:43.600 --> 01:38:45.920
to see and and of course the big thing that
1631
01:38:46.359 --> 01:38:49.279
the public does get to see, uh, and that is
1632
01:38:49.520 --> 01:38:55.560
the parade, and that itself, that is that's an emotional
1633
01:38:55.720 --> 01:38:59.960
bag right there to say that, And the parade is
1634
01:39:00.039 --> 01:39:03.319
coming up on November sixth, and again, Warriorbeach Retreat dot
1635
01:39:03.399 --> 01:39:05.600
org is the website where you can go for information
1636
01:39:05.720 --> 01:39:10.119
about everything as well as contribute because donations are always
1637
01:39:10.159 --> 01:39:12.640
needed to make this happen because it's expensive to do.
1638
01:39:13.119 --> 01:39:17.600
But tell everybody about the parade and the experience that
1639
01:39:17.680 --> 01:39:18.479
these guys get.
1640
01:39:19.720 --> 01:39:21.920
Well, most of them went straight from the battlefield to
1641
01:39:21.960 --> 01:39:25.000
the hospital to home and never got a hero's welcome.
1642
01:39:25.319 --> 01:39:27.520
And then also in the very front of the parade,
1643
01:39:27.600 --> 01:39:30.039
we have veterans that served before nine to eleven.
1644
01:39:30.079 --> 01:39:30.880
We try to get.
1645
01:39:30.720 --> 01:39:32.520
About five Vietnam.
1646
01:39:32.600 --> 01:39:33.800
We even have.
1647
01:39:33.840 --> 01:39:37.680
World War Two vets that ride sometime, as everybody knows
1648
01:39:37.720 --> 01:39:40.439
how specially the Vietnam vets were treated. But they're in
1649
01:39:40.479 --> 01:39:43.159
the front of the parade, and thankfully our Sheriff's going
1650
01:39:43.159 --> 01:39:46.000
to have his helicopter flying over the parade this year.
1651
01:39:46.079 --> 01:39:51.439
We have tremendous support from the police escorting them. But
1652
01:39:51.600 --> 01:39:54.399
they have a car with a magnet with a flag
1653
01:39:54.479 --> 01:39:57.479
on it with their name, and they ride down the
1654
01:39:57.520 --> 01:40:00.479
streets from the church, from the hotel well to the
1655
01:40:00.560 --> 01:40:06.319
church and healing. They're in their own cars, and healing
1656
01:40:06.399 --> 01:40:09.159
comes to them by seeing all these people on the
1657
01:40:09.199 --> 01:40:12.039
side of the road thanking them. They shout out their
1658
01:40:12.079 --> 01:40:14.279
name because their names on their magnents, and they have
1659
01:40:14.359 --> 01:40:18.199
their flags, they have their sides, all generations of people
1660
01:40:18.239 --> 01:40:21.279
out there honoring these men and women that have served,
1661
01:40:21.359 --> 01:40:26.479
and that in itself is life changing for them. And
1662
01:40:26.760 --> 01:40:28.800
that's why they're in their own car. They have a
1663
01:40:28.840 --> 01:40:30.880
box of cleanic and they go, why am I getting
1664
01:40:30.920 --> 01:40:31.800
this box of cleanic?
1665
01:40:34.119 --> 01:40:35.840
You don't find out, But I.
1666
01:40:35.920 --> 01:40:39.279
Just cannot thank the beautiful community for getting out there
1667
01:40:39.319 --> 01:40:42.039
and lining the streets because they have no idea the
1668
01:40:42.119 --> 01:40:45.159
impact this makes. And I think it brings healing to
1669
01:40:45.239 --> 01:40:48.479
them too, because we've seen people out there holding pictures
1670
01:40:48.520 --> 01:40:51.880
of their child that was lost, that was killed in
1671
01:40:51.920 --> 01:40:54.760
the war, and it's like the parade is also for
1672
01:40:54.840 --> 01:40:57.880
their child, and they're holding a poster with their child's picture.
1673
01:40:57.920 --> 01:41:00.119
And then we all lose it too when that happens.
1674
01:41:00.439 --> 01:41:03.039
And then the military behind the dive school is lining
1675
01:41:03.079 --> 01:41:07.880
the fence and also Coastguard in uniforms saluting these men
1676
01:41:07.920 --> 01:41:12.079
and women, which you know, I thank god when this
1677
01:41:12.119 --> 01:41:15.159
happened to our son. We were in Bay County because
1678
01:41:15.560 --> 01:41:18.720
this is such a patriotic community. But the parade route
1679
01:41:18.800 --> 01:41:22.079
is on our website Warriorbeach Retreat dot org. And if
1680
01:41:22.079 --> 01:41:25.119
they want a flag, the halfway bridge is if they
1681
01:41:25.199 --> 01:41:27.800
go to the Hathway Bridge, they're giving out full size
1682
01:41:27.840 --> 01:41:31.720
American flags for them to hold. And that looks so
1683
01:41:31.800 --> 01:41:34.520
cool with the breeze blowing and all. But I just
1684
01:41:34.640 --> 01:41:38.079
encourage everyone to please go to the website Warriorbeach Retreat
1685
01:41:38.119 --> 01:41:41.720
dot org for the parade route and line the streets.
1686
01:41:41.760 --> 01:41:46.159
And we are leaving at four o'clock from Peer Park
1687
01:41:46.520 --> 01:41:50.560
and we're going to the church's first Baptist Church in
1688
01:41:50.640 --> 01:41:53.720
Lynn Haven and the ceremony is at seven pm and
1689
01:41:53.760 --> 01:41:56.319
it's free and open to the public, and we have
1690
01:41:56.479 --> 01:42:00.840
two time Alabama Senator Hank Irwin is our speaker.
1691
01:42:01.079 --> 01:42:04.640
Awesome, awesome, and of course you've in the past have
1692
01:42:04.640 --> 01:42:07.960
have had a lot of amazing speakers, including you know
1693
01:42:08.000 --> 01:42:11.359
the last one that you had, you know, Alan West,
1694
01:42:11.359 --> 01:42:13.640
who's who's now kind of just in love with this
1695
01:42:13.640 --> 01:42:15.760
this program and one of the things I also want
1696
01:42:15.800 --> 01:42:17.640
to talk about too when it comes to this parade,
1697
01:42:18.479 --> 01:42:22.600
because it's it's the emotion thing that that again people
1698
01:42:22.600 --> 01:42:25.560
don't understand. It's like you you're you're doing a very
1699
01:42:25.600 --> 01:42:29.319
patriotic thing when you go out by you know, spending
1700
01:42:29.399 --> 01:42:32.479
literally a couple of minutes because you guys are because
1701
01:42:32.520 --> 01:42:34.399
of the ad that this is escorted by the police and
1702
01:42:34.439 --> 01:42:36.520
they shut down roads for it. So I mean, it
1703
01:42:36.560 --> 01:42:39.000
is it is pretty on time. If you if you
1704
01:42:39.079 --> 01:42:41.399
look up your area and it says that they're going
1705
01:42:41.479 --> 01:42:43.920
to be coming through here at five fifteen. It may
1706
01:42:43.920 --> 01:42:46.239
be five sixteen, it may be five fourteen, but it's
1707
01:42:46.319 --> 01:42:47.680
right then when they're going to be there, So you
1708
01:42:47.680 --> 01:42:49.680
don't want to be there and people will get out
1709
01:42:49.680 --> 01:42:51.840
there and they'll wave their flags, they'll they'll have their signs,
1710
01:42:51.840 --> 01:42:54.319
they'll just stand out there and shake their hands and
1711
01:42:54.319 --> 01:42:57.039
wave at them and stuff like that. What people don't
1712
01:42:57.079 --> 01:43:01.920
understand is at the end of that parade, when these
1713
01:43:02.039 --> 01:43:04.960
men and women are getting out of their car, the
1714
01:43:05.159 --> 01:43:11.600
emotional overload of what hit them. I mean is it's powerful.
1715
01:43:11.640 --> 01:43:13.680
I mean, I've been there for so many of them
1716
01:43:13.960 --> 01:43:16.920
and to see these people come out of they're almost
1717
01:43:17.039 --> 01:43:21.520
zombified when they get out, Like holy cow. I mean,
1718
01:43:21.520 --> 01:43:25.880
that's just how patriotic this area is to subtly so
1719
01:43:26.159 --> 01:43:29.680
that is fantastic and people really should get out there.
1720
01:43:29.880 --> 01:43:32.600
If you are in the Bay County area on Panama
1721
01:43:32.680 --> 01:43:35.840
City Beach, Panama City, Lynhaven, as the parade goes through,
1722
01:43:35.960 --> 01:43:37.600
just get out there and do it, because you just
1723
01:43:37.760 --> 01:43:40.960
you don't understand the impact of just that small few
1724
01:43:41.000 --> 01:43:43.880
minutes of your life of holding a flag and waving
1725
01:43:43.920 --> 01:43:45.119
to them and what it does.
1726
01:43:46.279 --> 01:43:48.920
It's huge. And if you have a motorcycle and you
1727
01:43:48.960 --> 01:43:51.279
would like to ride in the parade, we love having
1728
01:43:51.279 --> 01:43:53.279
the people with their bikes, and a lot of the
1729
01:43:53.359 --> 01:43:56.840
bikers are veterans. Show up at three point thirty at
1730
01:43:56.880 --> 01:44:00.359
the JC Penny parking lot at Pier Park and they'll
1731
01:44:00.439 --> 01:44:02.720
they'll tell you where to ride in the parade and
1732
01:44:03.920 --> 01:44:06.279
it's it's powerful. But again and then we have so
1733
01:44:06.359 --> 01:44:11.319
many people that support us, like the venues in restaurants
1734
01:44:11.359 --> 01:44:14.399
throughout Bay County and we you know, I don't want
1735
01:44:14.399 --> 01:44:16.600
to list them because I'll miss them, but that's what
1736
01:44:16.760 --> 01:44:20.079
makes these you know, possible. But and then line the
1737
01:44:20.079 --> 01:44:23.159
streets of the parade route with signs or flags, and
1738
01:44:23.520 --> 01:44:26.880
it's so beautiful to see these people out there, you know.
1739
01:44:27.439 --> 01:44:30.159
And it's on Warriorbeach Retreat. Dot org is where you
1740
01:44:30.159 --> 01:44:32.760
can get the parade route. Like Brian said, my husband
1741
01:44:32.920 --> 01:44:36.560
is a man of detail, and he goes we drive
1742
01:44:36.640 --> 01:44:39.199
the parade route and he writes down the times where
1743
01:44:39.199 --> 01:44:42.319
we are at every place so people know, Okay, I'm
1744
01:44:42.319 --> 01:44:44.520
not having to wait out here for an hour. I
1745
01:44:44.560 --> 01:44:47.279
can be out here at this time and so and
1746
01:44:47.319 --> 01:44:50.239
it's just so special. We were bringing a sign to
1747
01:44:50.800 --> 01:44:52.560
for our store to put in their window the other
1748
01:44:52.640 --> 01:44:55.079
day and the lady showed us that she has one
1749
01:44:55.119 --> 01:44:57.960
of the small American flags that for like ten years,
1750
01:44:58.000 --> 01:45:00.920
she's written a date every time she's been there and
1751
01:45:01.000 --> 01:45:04.840
gone outside to watch the parade she had the stick
1752
01:45:05.079 --> 01:45:06.279
was all these dates on it.
1753
01:45:06.399 --> 01:45:07.840
I thought, Oh my goodness.
1754
01:45:07.960 --> 01:45:11.960
So it's just it's just beautiful to live in a
1755
01:45:12.159 --> 01:45:15.880
patriotic community that wants to do what they can to
1756
01:45:15.960 --> 01:45:19.000
honor the sacrifice and service of these men and women.
1757
01:45:19.199 --> 01:45:21.119
And like you said, Brian, from when they get here
1758
01:45:21.680 --> 01:45:24.279
and when they leave. You were talking about after the parade,
1759
01:45:24.640 --> 01:45:26.520
But these guys when they get here, because some of
1760
01:45:26.520 --> 01:45:29.960
them do not leave their houses. Some of them don't
1761
01:45:30.000 --> 01:45:32.199
leave their homes when they get here, and when they leave,
1762
01:45:32.359 --> 01:45:33.960
they're like a total different person.
1763
01:45:34.279 --> 01:45:36.000
And they each get they are.
1764
01:45:35.880 --> 01:45:38.560
They each get like a biobook, like a yearbook with
1765
01:45:38.640 --> 01:45:41.640
everybody's picture and their story, and they keep up with
1766
01:45:41.680 --> 01:45:44.880
each other. They give each other their contact information, and
1767
01:45:44.960 --> 01:45:47.479
so they, like you said, they've become friends for life
1768
01:45:47.640 --> 01:45:51.239
of people that get it. You know, you get it,
1769
01:45:51.439 --> 01:45:54.960
you know you understand, and it's just, you know, like
1770
01:45:55.039 --> 01:45:57.119
the ladies have a day where they're together for a
1771
01:45:57.119 --> 01:46:00.800
spa day and they can connect and share their stories.
1772
01:46:01.079 --> 01:46:03.640
And then the guys go deep sea fishing. Brian, You've
1773
01:46:03.680 --> 01:46:05.000
gone fishing with them, Hammionship.
1774
01:46:05.119 --> 01:46:05.319
I have.
1775
01:46:05.600 --> 01:46:07.119
I've done the deep sea fishing. But you know what,
1776
01:46:07.680 --> 01:46:09.880
Linda I gotta say this because you guys always do
1777
01:46:09.880 --> 01:46:11.680
this where you send the guys off fishing and the
1778
01:46:11.680 --> 01:46:13.560
women to the to do the SPA day.
1779
01:46:14.319 --> 01:46:15.600
Rod, I know what you're gonna say.
1780
01:46:17.159 --> 01:46:20.960
I look, I'm a huge proponent of the SPA day
1781
01:46:21.000 --> 01:46:23.199
because I don't I don't care how manly you are,
1782
01:46:23.279 --> 01:46:24.760
you go do it. And you're gonna just be like,
1783
01:46:25.720 --> 01:46:28.119
oh my god, why haven't When are you going to
1784
01:46:28.159 --> 01:46:29.359
do your spy day for the guys.
1785
01:46:30.399 --> 01:46:32.439
I get that all the time from these veterans, But
1786
01:46:32.479 --> 01:46:34.760
I'm going sorry, from the guys. There are women veterans
1787
01:46:34.760 --> 01:46:37.079
that come to I'm going, no, you go out and
1788
01:46:37.119 --> 01:46:39.840
you get those smelly fish, you kiss us, you call.
1789
01:46:41.119 --> 01:46:43.279
I'm telling you, Linda, you got to put that in there.
1790
01:46:44.159 --> 01:46:47.640
Give the guys that option, and they will. They will
1791
01:46:47.680 --> 01:46:51.319
walk away so relieved. But you know, there there's also
1792
01:46:51.359 --> 01:46:53.800
a darker side to a lot of what goes on
1793
01:46:53.840 --> 01:46:57.880
with our veterans. You know, there's obviously the twenty two.
1794
01:46:57.720 --> 01:46:59.840
A day, yes.
1795
01:47:00.039 --> 01:47:03.600
Which you know, I hate this. I thought I was
1796
01:47:03.640 --> 01:47:06.800
going to do this without crying the number of our
1797
01:47:06.800 --> 01:47:10.600
soldiers that that take their lives every day. Yes, I
1798
01:47:10.640 --> 01:47:13.479
know they say twenty to a day but that number
1799
01:47:13.520 --> 01:47:14.199
is way higher.
1800
01:47:14.960 --> 01:47:16.039
It is it is.
1801
01:47:16.079 --> 01:47:17.840
It's more like twenty three or twenty four.
1802
01:47:18.039 --> 01:47:18.600
Yeah, on it.
1803
01:47:18.680 --> 01:47:21.119
And that's that's what that's what we try to do
1804
01:47:22.039 --> 01:47:24.359
to keep that from happening with the couples that come,
1805
01:47:24.920 --> 01:47:27.479
because what happens, what we saw with our son, the
1806
01:47:27.600 --> 01:47:30.079
eggs hit the fan when you get out of the military,
1807
01:47:30.560 --> 01:47:34.319
because your support group's gone, you're isolated, you're alone. And
1808
01:47:34.359 --> 01:47:38.039
so many of them they're finding demons that nobody can understand.
1809
01:47:38.279 --> 01:47:41.479
And so when they come and they have other people
1810
01:47:41.479 --> 01:47:46.279
that get it, they feel like, I am not alone.
1811
01:47:45.880 --> 01:47:48.840
My my wife, I deal with the same things as
1812
01:47:48.880 --> 01:47:52.079
this other battle buddy, and so they have somebody they
1813
01:47:52.079 --> 01:47:55.439
can connect with. And and eight we felt, we felt
1814
01:47:55.439 --> 01:47:58.039
was a good number because so many of them, you know,
1815
01:47:58.079 --> 01:47:59.960
they all want to sit at a restaurant with their
1816
01:48:00.119 --> 01:48:06.800
back to the wall, but that you can't do that. Yeah,
1817
01:48:07.079 --> 01:48:09.319
there's eighteen with the speaker in his life, that'll be
1818
01:48:09.359 --> 01:48:11.920
in the restaurant. We're going, okay. But they're all watching
1819
01:48:11.960 --> 01:48:14.840
each other's back and it's interesting to see.
1820
01:48:14.840 --> 01:48:15.439
That go on.
1821
01:48:15.640 --> 01:48:18.880
But you know, my brother talked to my son Josh
1822
01:48:18.920 --> 01:48:21.479
because you know, his legs are so high above his knee.
1823
01:48:21.520 --> 01:48:25.520
He can out wear prosthetics, and you know, he's tried
1824
01:48:26.079 --> 01:48:28.199
many times to do them. And I think I was
1825
01:48:28.239 --> 01:48:31.520
telling this story before I got off track. His wife
1826
01:48:31.560 --> 01:48:35.600
told me about several months ago that Joshua is really
1827
01:48:35.680 --> 01:48:40.880
missing his legs. I'm going I would have thought over
1828
01:48:41.039 --> 01:48:44.239
time you would kind of get used to it, but
1829
01:48:44.319 --> 01:48:46.239
you never get used to I mean, every time, even
1830
01:48:46.279 --> 01:48:49.439
at night, it gets up to go to the bathroom, has.
1831
01:48:49.319 --> 01:48:54.600
Again this wheelchair. You know, you can't war as horrible
1832
01:48:54.840 --> 01:48:57.920
it is, and families instead have experienced it though, And
1833
01:48:57.960 --> 01:48:59.640
so I said, josh do you want to try to
1834
01:48:59.640 --> 01:49:02.520
get back on prosthetics, you know or what? But he,
1835
01:49:02.800 --> 01:49:05.399
you know, his wife said, he really misses his legs.
1836
01:49:05.520 --> 01:49:08.439
And so people need to understand that we need to
1837
01:49:08.479 --> 01:49:11.760
support these men and women that have have and and
1838
01:49:12.239 --> 01:49:14.600
a lot of the injuries are the PTSD that you
1839
01:49:14.640 --> 01:49:17.479
don't understand, that we don't see, and there those were
1840
01:49:17.520 --> 01:49:20.520
worse for my son than losing his legs and his
1841
01:49:20.680 --> 01:49:22.159
hand being made, you.
1842
01:49:22.079 --> 01:49:24.600
Know, but which is really one of more of the
1843
01:49:24.600 --> 01:49:26.800
big things with the Worry Beach Retreat that addresses it
1844
01:49:26.800 --> 01:49:31.760
addresses that that deep, dark, hidden pain that a lot
1845
01:49:31.800 --> 01:49:34.439
of them don't know how to come out and address
1846
01:49:34.520 --> 01:49:36.800
and you guys do a great job with that and Linda, Uh,
1847
01:49:36.920 --> 01:49:40.000
like we said, we can't do this without support. And
1848
01:49:40.119 --> 01:49:42.640
obviously support on the parade line is is a good thing,
1849
01:49:43.279 --> 01:49:44.760
but it does cost a lot of money. I mean,
1850
01:49:44.800 --> 01:49:47.359
we're we're in a different time where you know, there
1851
01:49:47.520 --> 01:49:49.800
there's a lot of people that will will donate uh,
1852
01:49:50.159 --> 01:49:53.520
services and and money uh to make this happen, but
1853
01:49:53.560 --> 01:49:56.560
it still does cost a tremendous amount to do this.
1854
01:49:57.119 --> 01:50:01.800
How can people contribute to the Warrior Beach Retreat to
1855
01:50:01.920 --> 01:50:06.159
help out these these soldiers if they have I don't know,
1856
01:50:06.359 --> 01:50:08.760
five dollars or one thousand dollars or whatever it is
1857
01:50:08.800 --> 01:50:11.680
that they may want to contribute to this amazing cause.
1858
01:50:11.720 --> 01:50:12.600
How do people help out?
1859
01:50:13.840 --> 01:50:17.079
Well, they can go to our website Warriorbeach Retreat dot
1860
01:50:17.319 --> 01:50:19.680
org and they can see how they can donate. And
1861
01:50:19.760 --> 01:50:22.600
like you said, Brian, you know, years ago they used
1862
01:50:22.640 --> 01:50:26.039
to donate the rooms, but they haven't for like five years.
1863
01:50:26.079 --> 01:50:28.199
We have to pay for room for them to stay,
1864
01:50:28.399 --> 01:50:30.399
so it's different. But I wanted to say one thing
1865
01:50:30.479 --> 01:50:35.560
that my brother asked Josh. She said, why have you
1866
01:50:35.680 --> 01:50:38.000
considered taking your life, which is like, why did you
1867
01:50:38.039 --> 01:50:40.880
ask my brother myself that? He said, Brian, josh how
1868
01:50:40.920 --> 01:50:44.279
do you feel about that? And Joshua said, I Am
1869
01:50:44.359 --> 01:50:47.399
not going to take my life because I'm living my
1870
01:50:47.600 --> 01:50:51.760
life for my friends that couldn't. He had so many
1871
01:50:51.800 --> 01:50:53.800
friends that died because he was with the Big Red
1872
01:50:53.840 --> 01:50:56.720
Ones that lost. They have the most casualties of the
1873
01:50:56.760 --> 01:51:00.680
war in Iraq. And he said, I'm living my friends
1874
01:51:00.680 --> 01:51:04.520
that didn't. And so that that that is a mom
1875
01:51:04.720 --> 01:51:06.920
made me proud of him. And he's going, you know,
1876
01:51:07.000 --> 01:51:09.279
it's I'm not going to go that route because so
1877
01:51:09.359 --> 01:51:12.000
I have so many friends that wanted to live that
1878
01:51:12.000 --> 01:51:15.199
that couldn't. You know that that gave the ultimate sacrifice
1879
01:51:15.239 --> 01:51:18.199
for our freedom. So it's just you know, and we
1880
01:51:18.239 --> 01:51:21.800
appreciate the prayers of everybody for every couple coming for
1881
01:51:21.920 --> 01:51:25.079
their lives to be touched and changed and to be
1882
01:51:25.119 --> 01:51:28.560
made whole in every way that they can. But like
1883
01:51:28.600 --> 01:51:32.239
you said, by donations are needed at Warriorbeach Retreat dot org.
1884
01:51:32.279 --> 01:51:33.439
It's much appreciated.
1885
01:51:33.600 --> 01:51:36.960
And we are local, yeah, and that not that the thing.
1886
01:51:37.520 --> 01:51:40.319
You guys are a local group doing some great work.
1887
01:51:40.680 --> 01:51:44.880
The parade is coming up on November sixth, go to

Happy Red Friday. Thanks so much for checking us out today.
1916
01:53:24.720 --> 01:53:26.800
And this is one of my best parts of the
1917
01:53:27.159 --> 01:53:30.000
My favorite parts of the week is the the hour
1918
01:53:30.079 --> 01:53:32.960
number three, bottom of the hour when we get to
1919
01:53:32.960 --> 01:53:40.680
bring in the Doster Boys from America in View. Guys, Hello, Hey.
1920
01:53:40.520 --> 01:53:43.079
Hey, Glen, how you doing man. We found we're very
1921
01:53:43.119 --> 01:53:44.479
refreshed after your vacation.
1922
01:53:44.800 --> 01:53:48.119
I am very refreshed that and you know, being back
1923
01:53:48.119 --> 01:53:50.319
in the Knock It Off studio and not having to
1924
01:53:50.479 --> 01:53:55.840
do the show via the remote gear, and honestly, I
1925
01:53:55.920 --> 01:53:59.680
was doing it lounging on the couch where we were staying,
1926
01:54:00.119 --> 01:54:03.399
and I got a little relaxed. So it's kind of
1927
01:54:03.479 --> 01:54:06.600
nice to be back here. I had to put some
1928
01:54:06.600 --> 01:54:08.840
pants back on because we're obviously doing the show on
1929
01:54:08.920 --> 01:54:11.399
Rumble and Wimken as well, so I had to have
1930
01:54:11.439 --> 01:54:13.319
some clothes on for it. But it's good to be
1931
01:54:13.319 --> 01:54:15.640
back in the studio and also good to have you
1932
01:54:15.680 --> 01:54:18.800
guys on because there's so much to talk about. And man,
1933
01:54:18.840 --> 01:54:21.239
I'm not even sure where we begin. I guess we can.
1934
01:54:21.399 --> 01:54:25.159
We can hit on the Schumer shutdown initially with some
1935
01:54:25.199 --> 01:54:26.439
of your thoughts on that. What do you think?
1936
01:54:28.399 --> 01:54:31.199
Yeah, it's been really going interesting this week. I think
1937
01:54:31.239 --> 01:54:34.319
the Democrats have really walked themselves into a blind canyon here.
1938
01:54:35.039 --> 01:54:38.039
You've called it the Schumer shutdown. It's clearly being aligned
1939
01:54:38.079 --> 01:54:41.439
with the Democratic Party. Interestingly enough, Brian, a lot of
1940
01:54:41.439 --> 01:54:44.720
the public public polls right now are splitting it about
1941
01:54:44.720 --> 01:54:47.000
fifty to fifty as who they blame more for it.
1942
01:54:47.560 --> 01:54:50.000
But I think the Republican base loves this right now.
1943
01:54:50.039 --> 01:54:54.199
And I'll tell you who else loves it is nonpartisan voters. Yeah, so, yeah,
1944
01:54:54.319 --> 01:54:56.439
the Democrats veteran voters matter, Yes.
1945
01:54:56.319 --> 01:54:56.880
They do matter.
1946
01:54:56.920 --> 01:54:59.039
But as we get into the midterms next year, I
1947
01:54:59.039 --> 01:55:01.640
think people like to se the Republicans holding the line
1948
01:55:01.680 --> 01:55:04.439
and hey, the Democrats are saying they want to shut
1949
01:55:04.439 --> 01:55:08.239
the government down because the Republicans won't spend more money
1950
01:55:08.279 --> 01:55:10.439
and ultimately that is a losing message.
1951
01:55:10.600 --> 01:55:12.359
Mm hmm, yeah it is. And you know, I think
1952
01:55:12.520 --> 01:55:14.239
somebody else that might be a little excited about it.
1953
01:55:14.239 --> 01:55:15.880
And I think Donald Trump might have been onto something
1954
01:55:16.119 --> 01:55:18.319
when he said this in his post, is that there
1955
01:55:18.319 --> 01:55:22.039
are probably some Democrats that realized, oh crap, we really
1956
01:55:22.079 --> 01:55:23.399
got to cut some of the spending. We had to
1957
01:55:23.439 --> 01:55:25.760
cut some of this stuff. But I can't say it
1958
01:55:25.840 --> 01:55:29.520
because I don't have the cajonez that John Fetterman has.
1959
01:55:29.920 --> 01:55:33.119
So I'll just vote for the shutdown and see what happens.
1960
01:55:33.439 --> 01:55:35.640
There may be some Democrats out there that are excited
1961
01:55:35.640 --> 01:55:38.399
about it, going whoo now it can be done, and
1962
01:55:38.439 --> 01:55:39.560
I don't get to blame for it.
1963
01:55:41.439 --> 01:55:45.000
Yeah, totally. Man, you looked at John Fetterman. I mean,
1964
01:55:45.039 --> 01:55:46.680
who would have thought that we would be in this
1965
01:55:46.800 --> 01:55:50.479
place where John Fetterman is like the reasonable guy, I know,
1966
01:55:50.680 --> 01:55:53.119
the one that we can you know, work with and
1967
01:55:53.239 --> 01:55:56.000
kind of talk some sense on some of the issues
1968
01:55:56.000 --> 01:55:58.560
that are out there. But man, you're exactly right, Brian.
1969
01:55:58.640 --> 01:56:04.000
These these whether you're Republican or Democrat, the financial position
1970
01:56:04.079 --> 01:56:07.000
of the United States federal government is just not good.
1971
01:56:07.079 --> 01:56:10.159
And everybody knows that we're spending way too much money.
1972
01:56:10.439 --> 01:56:14.039
The federal debt is thirty eight trillion dollars. I mean,
1973
01:56:14.199 --> 01:56:16.560
it's a number that really kind of wrecks your brain
1974
01:56:16.600 --> 01:56:19.560
when you think about it, because it just doesn't make sense.
1975
01:56:19.640 --> 01:56:22.439
And we're adding to it a couple of trillion dollars
1976
01:56:22.479 --> 01:56:25.239
a year, and so yeah, everybody knows it. I mean,
1977
01:56:25.279 --> 01:56:27.439
it's the elephant in the room. Everybody knows at some
1978
01:56:27.640 --> 01:56:31.880
point we've got to stop spending like this. And you know,
1979
01:56:31.920 --> 01:56:36.439
these these kind of gymnastics that the politicians in Washington,
1980
01:56:36.560 --> 01:56:39.319
DC go through whenever we get to these points, and
1981
01:56:40.079 --> 01:56:42.039
then it becomes, well, you know, what deal are we
1982
01:56:42.079 --> 01:56:44.520
going to get? Whose fault is it that we're shut down?
1983
01:56:44.680 --> 01:56:47.600
In the end. In the end, we've got to figure
1984
01:56:47.600 --> 01:56:49.640
out a way to stop spending so much money.
1985
01:56:49.880 --> 01:56:53.920
Yeah, yeah, we really do. And I think that Donald
1986
01:56:53.960 --> 01:56:55.960
Trump's got the ideas him and russ are going to
1987
01:56:56.399 --> 01:56:58.960
start cutting some things. So it could be interesting to
1988
01:56:58.960 --> 01:57:02.560
see what happens with all the cuts that that now
1989
01:57:02.600 --> 01:57:06.800
Donald Trump can do with unilaterally without Congress getting involved.
1990
01:57:07.319 --> 01:57:09.960
And I think the Democrats they boom booed on that
1991
01:57:10.000 --> 01:57:10.600
one big time.
1992
01:57:13.640 --> 01:57:16.640
Yeah, you're spot on with that, and I think what's interesting,
1993
01:57:16.680 --> 01:57:20.680
Brian is that as you see the national mood sort
1994
01:57:20.720 --> 01:57:24.640
of elevate on the level of what I would call cuts,
1995
01:57:25.119 --> 01:57:28.319
you also see agencies coming at risk. Now you're seeing
1996
01:57:28.399 --> 01:57:31.600
agency expenditures coming up under the microscope. And that's even
1997
01:57:31.640 --> 01:57:34.600
having an effect on state like Florida, where now Blazing
1998
01:57:34.600 --> 01:57:39.159
Goalie is out on a crusade to peel back the
1999
01:57:39.199 --> 01:57:41.439
layers on all these cities in counties. So you know,
2000
01:57:41.520 --> 01:57:43.680
what's going on in DC right now is having enough
2001
01:57:43.760 --> 01:57:45.560
secon nationwide. And I think it's good.
2002
01:57:45.880 --> 01:57:49.119
Yeah, yeah, it's absolutely good. And that's a perfect transition
2003
01:57:49.239 --> 01:57:52.840
too to get into the other topic, and that is doze.
2004
01:57:53.319 --> 01:57:56.039
You know, obviously the doze that Donald Trump and Elon
2005
01:57:56.159 --> 01:58:00.319
Musk did has exposed a lot of of failure and
2006
01:58:00.399 --> 01:58:03.119
are managing our money on the national level. But Rondes
2007
01:58:03.159 --> 01:58:04.680
santa Is not too long ago said you know what,
2008
01:58:04.840 --> 01:58:07.079
like so many other politicians, which I don't know why
2009
01:58:07.119 --> 01:58:09.439
it took, you know, the national level to do this,
2010
01:58:09.479 --> 01:58:11.000
and people to think we should look at what we're
2011
01:58:11.000 --> 01:58:13.960
spending on. But Ronda Santas jumped on that as well,
2012
01:58:14.119 --> 01:58:17.640
and Blazing Golia, who's now our new CFO replacing Jimmy.
2013
01:58:18.359 --> 01:58:20.880
They've they've been diving into some things in Man. The
2014
01:58:20.920 --> 01:58:24.319
stuff that they found. Let's talk about that mess.
2015
01:58:26.399 --> 01:58:31.119
Yeah, a huge, huge effort by CFO, blazing Golia. He's
2016
01:58:31.119 --> 01:58:34.319
doing a great job just really bringing a spotlight on
2017
01:58:34.880 --> 01:58:37.680
man just some just some out of control stuff. He
2018
01:58:38.079 --> 01:58:41.319
I loved his tweet. I guess it was maybe yesterday
2019
01:58:42.159 --> 01:58:46.279
about the poet Laureate of Orlando and he even wrote
2020
01:58:46.319 --> 01:58:49.840
his own poem on Twitter to show that the expenditure
2021
01:58:49.920 --> 01:58:52.680
in the millions of dollars, you know, is not needed
2022
01:58:52.720 --> 01:58:54.520
for this kind of stuff. You were just telling me,
2023
01:58:55.079 --> 01:58:58.920
Brian about the drag show in Sante Polo that was funded.
2024
01:58:58.960 --> 01:59:01.039
What was the consultant was how much consulted?
2025
01:59:01.119 --> 01:59:05.399
Was one hundred and fifty thousand dollars to bring in
2026
01:59:05.039 --> 01:59:08.119
a draft. I guess it's like an anti Christmas or
2027
01:59:08.600 --> 01:59:11.439
something drag show at the Sanger Theater. And that's just
2028
01:59:11.439 --> 01:59:13.960
the consulting. That doesn't include any of the other defenses.
2029
01:59:14.159 --> 01:59:19.520
Yeah, just the consultant. And it underscores a lot of
2030
01:59:19.800 --> 01:59:23.039
the debate that's been going on on property taxes, regardless
2031
01:59:23.079 --> 01:59:26.039
of where that tax policy ends up landing over the
2032
01:59:26.079 --> 01:59:29.239
next few years. The reality is that these local government
2033
01:59:29.600 --> 01:59:33.479
budgets have increased dramatically over the last four years. They've
2034
01:59:33.520 --> 01:59:38.479
really benefited from the COVID expansion, the inflationary expansion, and
2035
01:59:38.520 --> 01:59:41.640
then just these home values going way up, and a
2036
01:59:41.640 --> 01:59:44.399
lot of these local governments they're not giving the money
2037
01:59:44.479 --> 01:59:46.960
back to the tax payer. They're just going into these
2038
01:59:47.079 --> 01:59:50.199
kinds of projects that people don't know about, yep, and
2039
01:59:50.239 --> 01:59:52.760
they cost a lot of money. And yeah, I mean
2040
01:59:52.760 --> 01:59:55.039
it's got to get rolled back. And whether it's through
2041
01:59:55.119 --> 01:59:58.199
the pressure of what in Goalie is doing and just
2042
01:59:58.439 --> 02:00:01.479
you know, public opinion being educated on this sort of thing,
2043
02:00:02.039 --> 02:00:03.199
it's got to get rolled back.
2044
02:00:03.479 --> 02:00:06.279
Yeah, it really does. And you know, you look at
2045
02:00:06.279 --> 02:00:08.880
things like the Pensacola deal, and there there was so
2046
02:00:08.960 --> 02:00:10.880
much that got exposed in this too. I mean one
2047
02:00:10.920 --> 02:00:13.640
hundred and fifty thousand dollars just for a consultant to
2048
02:00:13.680 --> 02:00:16.199
do this. I mean, look in Pensacola, you could just
2049
02:00:16.239 --> 02:00:18.319
go down to civil quarters down there in the bottom
2050
02:00:18.319 --> 02:00:20.119
and good chances are you could find a couple of
2051
02:00:20.199 --> 02:00:22.279
drag queens and say, hey, you want to come do
2052
02:00:22.600 --> 02:00:24.840
a song and dance, come on over here. And I
2053
02:00:24.840 --> 02:00:26.560
would have consulted I would have done that for ten
2054
02:00:26.600 --> 02:00:28.880
grand I would have gone down and just found a
2055
02:00:28.880 --> 02:00:30.920
couple of them and said, hey, here you go, And
2056
02:00:30.920 --> 02:00:33.399
that would have saved Pensacola one hundred and forty thousand dollars.
2057
02:00:34.720 --> 02:00:35.880
And the question that you have.
2058
02:00:35.960 --> 02:00:39.000
To have a different good. Yeah.
2059
02:00:39.000 --> 02:00:40.760
The difference is, Brian, is that you'd be doing it
2060
02:00:40.800 --> 02:00:43.159
with private money, not taxpayer money.
2061
02:00:43.399 --> 02:00:43.640
Yeah.
2062
02:00:43.920 --> 02:00:46.479
Well maybe, I mean, if they're going to spend the
2063
02:00:46.479 --> 02:00:48.359
taxpayer money and they're going to spend one hundred and fifty,
2064
02:00:48.359 --> 02:00:51.960
I'll take ten and save them money. I'm off about that.
2065
02:00:52.039 --> 02:00:54.119
But the problem with things like that, though, is that
2066
02:00:54.600 --> 02:00:56.319
you know, with that one hundred and fifty thousand just
2067
02:00:56.359 --> 02:00:58.640
in the consultant, again, who knows how much more they're
2068
02:00:58.680 --> 02:01:01.039
spending for the promoting of it and the actual show
2069
02:01:01.079 --> 02:01:04.000
and everything else. What is it bringing in? You know?
2070
02:01:04.039 --> 02:01:05.920
I mean, obviously we see things like here in Bay
2071
02:01:05.920 --> 02:01:09.399
County with Panama City Beach with a TDC, where sure
2072
02:01:09.439 --> 02:01:10.880
there's a lot of people that get upset about some
2073
02:01:10.920 --> 02:01:14.439
money that gets spent, but they will spend money on
2074
02:01:14.640 --> 02:01:17.000
promoting something or doing a show or whatever it might be,
2075
02:01:17.640 --> 02:01:20.880
and we get hotel rooms filled, we get restaurants filled,
2076
02:01:20.880 --> 02:01:24.159
with people, and it's something that you know, translated into
2077
02:01:24.199 --> 02:01:27.279
money into the community. I can't imagine that a drag
2078
02:01:27.359 --> 02:01:30.760
Christmas show is going to bring a huge draw that's
2079
02:01:30.760 --> 02:01:33.920
going to bring in millions to Pensacola. It's just scratches
2080
02:01:33.960 --> 02:01:34.640
your head a little bit.
2081
02:01:37.800 --> 02:01:38.439
Yeah, I think.
2082
02:01:41.840 --> 02:01:47.119
A smart man, Yeah, go ahead, and we even want
2083
02:01:47.159 --> 02:01:48.880
to have that crowd show up in your town. I
2084
02:01:48.920 --> 02:01:49.760
mean I certainly don't.
2085
02:01:50.000 --> 02:01:52.319
Yeah, yeah, I think a lot of people don't. But
2086
02:01:52.520 --> 02:01:54.560
there was also so many other things too that were
2087
02:01:54.600 --> 02:02:00.239
discovered during the Florida doze. And I think the dollar
2088
02:02:00.279 --> 02:02:02.359
amount that I think I saw it was something like
2089
02:02:02.439 --> 02:02:06.239
eight billion dollars statewide so far that Blaze and the
2090
02:02:06.279 --> 02:02:09.560
team has found of just wasted money. And here in
2091
02:02:09.600 --> 02:02:12.119
the state of Florida alone, that's insane.
2092
02:02:14.760 --> 02:02:17.760
So as the fans right now, Brian, all the municipalities
2093
02:02:17.760 --> 02:02:20.720
in the state together, and there's about forty five percent
2094
02:02:20.840 --> 02:02:25.880
of Flordians that live inside municipalities they raise or levy
2095
02:02:26.000 --> 02:02:29.079
every year about well, they've levied this year about eight
2096
02:02:29.079 --> 02:02:33.439
point five billion dollars. They've already found enough to cover
2097
02:02:34.000 --> 02:02:37.439
eliminating property taxes for those eight point five billion dollars.
2098
02:02:37.520 --> 02:02:39.359
Right now, if you go to the county level, there's
2099
02:02:39.399 --> 02:02:42.079
another twenty five billion on top of that. But you know,
2100
02:02:42.159 --> 02:02:44.920
Ron Desantas and Blaze and Goalie both started out with
2101
02:02:44.960 --> 02:02:49.359
the notion that if you could cut the expenditures in half,
2102
02:02:49.439 --> 02:02:53.279
stay wide, with all these perdicious spending patterns, then there
2103
02:02:53.319 --> 02:02:56.520
would be enough cushion there to really get on track
2104
02:02:56.640 --> 02:03:00.279
for eliminating property taxes with some other replacement revenue. And
2105
02:03:00.319 --> 02:03:02.079
I think they're showing that that there's a lot of
2106
02:03:02.119 --> 02:03:05.680
efficiencies that can be found here. So I think this
2107
02:03:05.760 --> 02:03:08.560
is a good first step. They're embarrassing these public officials
2108
02:03:08.680 --> 02:03:11.239
and all these guys in Gallus who've been going to
2109
02:03:11.239 --> 02:03:14.479
Tallahassee wying with their hands out saying that they can
2110
02:03:14.600 --> 02:03:17.920
make it on the local tax base, are just well
2111
02:03:18.079 --> 02:03:19.640
they're off base. Yeah.
2112
02:03:19.840 --> 02:03:22.239
Yeah, be careful what you're spending your money on. I mean,
2113
02:03:22.239 --> 02:03:24.399
it's very simple economics.
2114
02:03:25.119 --> 02:03:25.319
You know.
2115
02:03:25.399 --> 02:03:28.319
The question that I think all these politicians should ask
2116
02:03:28.359 --> 02:03:32.000
when they spend money is what is the ROI on this?
2117
02:03:32.680 --> 02:03:35.279
You know, and things like the drag show. I doubt
2118
02:03:35.319 --> 02:03:37.960
that there's going to be much of a return spending
2119
02:03:38.000 --> 02:03:39.920
the money on a new fire truck. What's the return
2120
02:03:39.960 --> 02:03:41.800
on that, Well, we put out a fire and we
2121
02:03:41.840 --> 02:03:44.680
rescue our citizens, you know. So I think that there
2122
02:03:44.720 --> 02:03:48.520
needs to be better examining of our money, and we
2123
02:03:48.640 --> 02:03:50.960
the people need to be more aware of this. I mean,
2124
02:03:51.199 --> 02:03:53.039
I was going through that list that was released the
2125
02:03:53.119 --> 02:03:56.880
other day, and I was blown away. I can imagine
2126
02:03:56.880 --> 02:03:59.800
how many other Floridians are reading that list and just
2127
02:03:59.840 --> 02:04:03.239
be shocked by the amount of money that's being wasted
2128
02:04:03.319 --> 02:04:06.600
on stupid things, especially when we have important things that
2129
02:04:06.640 --> 02:04:10.920
need to be done, like infrastructure and other important things,
2130
02:04:11.159 --> 02:04:13.520
and here we are spending money on drag shows.
2131
02:04:15.399 --> 02:04:19.079
You know, Brian, A lot of a lot of the
2132
02:04:19.199 --> 02:04:23.000
scrutiny on spending has historically been on the federal government, right,
2133
02:04:23.039 --> 02:04:25.199
A lot of the grants that you'll hear people talk
2134
02:04:25.239 --> 02:04:28.239
about like, oh, we studied, you know, some sort of
2135
02:04:28.279 --> 02:04:33.880
like really obscure scientific inquiry that you know, somebody could
2136
02:04:33.880 --> 02:04:36.520
have just figured out without spending the millions of dollars
2137
02:04:36.520 --> 02:04:37.079
that it takes.
2138
02:04:37.279 --> 02:04:38.760
Yeah, and now.
2139
02:04:38.600 --> 02:04:41.079
We're learning, we're learning that a lot of that same
2140
02:04:41.119 --> 02:04:43.439
stuff is happening right here in our own backyards, you know,
2141
02:04:43.560 --> 02:04:47.119
right right here in our local governments. And so you're right,
2142
02:04:47.159 --> 02:04:48.920
I hope the word is getting out. I mean, there's
2143
02:04:48.920 --> 02:04:51.199
a lot in the news right now that that's keeping
2144
02:04:51.239 --> 02:04:54.399
people entertained or distracted. So I hope there is a
2145
02:04:54.399 --> 02:04:56.880
lot of people paying attention because this is one of
2146
02:04:56.960 --> 02:05:00.159
the most substantive things that's come out of of this
2147
02:05:00.239 --> 02:05:02.840
review of our local governments in a long time. And
2148
02:05:03.039 --> 02:05:06.000
I really you know, there are some local governments out there,
2149
02:05:06.000 --> 02:05:09.399
they're doing things right. There's a few, there's a few
2150
02:05:09.439 --> 02:05:12.800
that are that are trying to be physically responsible and
2151
02:05:12.880 --> 02:05:15.520
trying to have good, good spending. But man, there's a
2152
02:05:15.520 --> 02:05:16.159
lot that are not.
2153
02:05:16.439 --> 02:05:19.600
And you know, ironically, it just so happens to be
2154
02:05:20.000 --> 02:05:22.119
all of these cities that are very blue leaning in
2155
02:05:22.159 --> 02:05:28.039
the state of Florida, Jacksonville, Orlando, Pensacola, that have appeared
2156
02:05:28.079 --> 02:05:32.640
with some really extraordinarily high stupid things that they have
2157
02:05:32.720 --> 02:05:35.119
spent money on that you just don't need to be
2158
02:05:35.119 --> 02:05:35.840
spending money on.
2159
02:05:38.039 --> 02:05:42.840
Yeah, it's a philosophical difference or a different mindset. Look,
2160
02:05:42.960 --> 02:05:46.199
whenever you are a lover of government and you believe
2161
02:05:46.319 --> 02:05:48.840
that all good things happen at the hands of government,
2162
02:05:49.119 --> 02:05:51.920
then you're looking to try to extract more money from
2163
02:05:51.920 --> 02:05:55.560
Brian Rust. You're looking to extract more money from other
2164
02:05:55.640 --> 02:05:58.800
citizens to essentially put yourself in a position of you
2165
02:05:58.880 --> 02:06:03.439
allocating money for them to causes that you believe government
2166
02:06:03.600 --> 02:06:07.359
has designated as just or as designated as being culturally
2167
02:06:07.840 --> 02:06:11.640
important for the community. And you know, conservatives generally take
2168
02:06:11.640 --> 02:06:14.279
the notion that, hey, let the consumers decide. You know,
2169
02:06:14.319 --> 02:06:16.479
if people want certain things, let them find it, let
2170
02:06:16.560 --> 02:06:18.720
them keep their own money and make their own decisions.
2171
02:06:19.039 --> 02:06:21.079
And that makes for a more vibrant economy, It makes
2172
02:06:21.079 --> 02:06:23.880
for a more vibrant community, and you don't have all
2173
02:06:23.920 --> 02:06:26.359
this waste and garbage that we see in the public
2174
02:06:26.399 --> 02:06:27.359
sphere exactly.
2175
02:06:27.399 --> 02:06:29.640
I mean, as as a concert promoter or show promoter,
2176
02:06:29.720 --> 02:06:31.279
if I look at it and go I can make
2177
02:06:31.319 --> 02:06:32.920
a lot of money by doing a drag Christmas show
2178
02:06:32.920 --> 02:06:35.359
in Pensacola. I'm going to invest in it. Go invest
2179
02:06:35.359 --> 02:06:39.199
in it and not be our taxpayer dollars. But you know,
2180
02:06:39.239 --> 02:06:41.600
it all boils down to two really good leadership and
2181
02:06:41.600 --> 02:06:44.600
the transparency. And coming up next year, we obviously have
2182
02:06:44.800 --> 02:06:48.439
a leadership battle that is going on. Let's talk about
2183
02:06:48.439 --> 02:06:51.039
the run for governor. What's what's the latest news and
2184
02:06:51.119 --> 02:06:53.119
latest showdown that's going on there.
2185
02:06:54.600 --> 02:06:58.079
Yeah, So Byron Donalds made a lot of news talking
2186
02:06:58.119 --> 02:07:02.479
about his fundraising over the last quarter. And uh, there's
2187
02:07:02.520 --> 02:07:05.199
a lot of rumors going around and that are not
2188
02:07:05.239 --> 02:07:07.640
even rumors that was coming straight from our new Lieutenant
2189
02:07:07.680 --> 02:07:13.920
governor Jake Collins, that he was possibly announcing his candidacy
2190
02:07:14.000 --> 02:07:16.359
for the governor's race. He's backed off that and so
2191
02:07:16.439 --> 02:07:18.640
he sort of pulled his name out at least for now.
2192
02:07:19.119 --> 02:07:21.039
It remains to be seen whether he's going to come
2193
02:07:21.079 --> 02:07:23.920
back and and launch into that. Then of course we've
2194
02:07:23.920 --> 02:07:26.199
got Paul Renner who's running for governor on the on
2195
02:07:26.239 --> 02:07:28.720
the Republican side as well. He has not released his
2196
02:07:28.800 --> 02:07:32.159
numbers yet, but he's out there. And then there's you know,
2197
02:07:32.239 --> 02:07:34.479
there's some fun stuff going on on the Democratic side.
2198
02:07:34.520 --> 02:07:37.520
I don't pay as much attention to that. I'll take
2199
02:07:37.560 --> 02:07:41.079
care of it so well. And we're going to figure
2200
02:07:41.079 --> 02:07:43.079
out who their nominee is. But they're gonna have to
2201
02:07:43.159 --> 02:07:45.840
they're gonna have to battle that out. You know, that's
2202
02:07:45.880 --> 02:07:46.920
just a whole different animal.
2203
02:07:47.159 --> 02:07:50.399
Yeah, yeah, that it is, and we'll we'll obviously dive
2204
02:07:50.439 --> 02:07:52.600
into that, but it'll be interesting to see who ends
2205
02:07:52.680 --> 02:07:56.720
up being the the governor coming up next year because
2206
02:07:56.720 --> 02:07:58.800
it'll be a make it or break it for the
2207
02:07:58.800 --> 02:08:01.439
state of Florida, especially if we allow the Democrats to
2208
02:08:01.880 --> 02:08:05.279
take any sort of charge on that the show coming
2209
02:08:05.359 --> 02:08:06.920
up tomorrow, you'd have no guests and hang on a
2210
02:08:06.920 --> 02:08:09.920
saying let me just check my email again. No, I
2211
02:08:09.960 --> 02:08:12.239
didn't see one there, So you don't have any guest tomorrow.
2212
02:08:13.039 --> 02:08:15.520
I was looking for an invite. So what's going on
2213
02:08:15.640 --> 02:08:19.039
this show in the American view tomorrow? I won't let
2214
02:08:19.039 --> 02:08:20.399
it go. I just won't let it go.
2215
02:08:20.880 --> 02:08:22.600
All right, we're gonna have you on next week. We're
2216
02:08:22.600 --> 02:08:23.439
going to make this happen.
2217
02:08:23.520 --> 02:08:24.000
There we go.
2218
02:08:24.079 --> 02:08:26.479
But yeah, let me tell.
2219
02:08:26.399 --> 02:08:29.119
You what we're debating tomorrow. So we are working on
2220
02:08:29.159 --> 02:08:31.479
the government shutdown. We're peeling that back. You've been doing
2221
02:08:31.520 --> 02:08:32.920
a good job of doing that. I don't think they're
2222
02:08:32.920 --> 02:08:34.600
gonna have a deal of this weekend, so we're gonna
2223
02:08:34.600 --> 02:08:39.119
have lots to talk about. Secondly, Trump and Pete Hegseth
2224
02:08:39.239 --> 02:08:42.600
made big news this week by calling all the top
2225
02:08:42.640 --> 02:08:47.640
brass in the military into DC and essentially I don't
2226
02:08:47.680 --> 02:08:49.880
want to say dressing them down, but briefing them on
2227
02:08:49.960 --> 02:08:53.800
the new standards for the military, basically throwing out all
2228
02:08:53.800 --> 02:08:57.760
the DEI will garbage that you've seen populated inside the
2229
02:08:57.920 --> 02:09:00.680
high brass in the military in the past years under
2230
02:09:00.680 --> 02:09:04.880
Biden and really going back to the Obama administration. More importantly,
2231
02:09:05.680 --> 02:09:10.439
he emphasized that he was going to reassert physical fitness standards,
2232
02:09:10.479 --> 02:09:14.520
which is going to put the best, brightest, and strongest
2233
02:09:15.079 --> 02:09:18.520
in cohesive come that units in a way that has
2234
02:09:18.560 --> 02:09:21.680
not been seen in probably fifteen years. And so this
2235
02:09:22.039 --> 02:09:24.520
kind of what I would call getting back to the
2236
02:09:24.560 --> 02:09:28.159
basics of our military, putting strong men out front on
2237
02:09:28.239 --> 02:09:30.880
the fighting forces is going to be really really good
2238
02:09:30.920 --> 02:09:33.039
for recruiting, and I think it's gonna payoff in a
2239
02:09:33.039 --> 02:09:34.560
big way. So we're gonna be talking about that a
2240
02:09:34.560 --> 02:09:35.600
lot this weekend as well.
2241
02:09:35.880 --> 02:09:37.600
That's awesome. Sounds like it's gonna be a great show
2242
02:09:37.640 --> 02:09:40.399
coming up tomorrow America in View, which has heard right
2243
02:09:40.439 --> 02:09:44.079
here on Florida Man Radio. And I'll be looking forward
2244
02:09:44.119 --> 02:09:46.359
to that invite one day, and I might even come
2245
02:09:46.399 --> 02:09:49.720
up to Tallahassee and do it from there, just just
2246
02:09:49.760 --> 02:09:51.359
to add some chaos.
2247
02:09:54.039 --> 02:09:58.279
Anytime, Brian, you know, we could, we could strip some
2248
02:09:58.359 --> 02:10:00.199
things out in advance. I can, I can argu the
2249
02:10:00.199 --> 02:10:02.039
wheels are spending I can already think of some fun
2250
02:10:02.079 --> 02:10:02.680
we get add with that.
2251
02:10:03.000 --> 02:10:05.279
Oh yeah, and that, and see if we can keep
2252
02:10:05.279 --> 02:10:08.680
the radio stations licenses. That'll that'll be the big one too.
2253
02:10:11.960 --> 02:10:13.920
There may have to be some editing of that show
2254
02:10:14.279 --> 02:10:17.680
as we go along, and especially your guy John up there,
2255
02:10:17.720 --> 02:10:21.840
he knows sometimes it's it's tough with me. That's censor button.
2256
02:10:21.840 --> 02:10:24.239
You got to keep it ready. But either way, America
2257
02:10:24.399 --> 02:10:27.439
View always love our conversations with you guys, and of
2258
02:10:27.479 --> 02:10:31.000
course we'll do it again next Friday here on the show,
2259
02:10:31.079 --> 02:10:36.000
and hopefully we'll have some shutdown news at next week's show.
2260
02:10:36.720 --> 02:10:38.840
But in the meantime we'll check you guys out tomorrow
2261
02:10:38.840 --> 02:10:40.760
twelve noon right here in Florida Man Radio. And of
2262
02:10:40.800 --> 02:10:43.079
course you can check you guys out at America Inview
2263

2269
02:10:58.640 --> 02:11:01.600
Doster of course heard right here on Florida Man Radio
2270
02:11:02.039 --> 02:11:04.319

quick break. We'll be right back. This is a Red

02:11:06.640 --> 02:11:10.720
Friday where we are remembering everyone deployed, and that includes
2273
02:11:10.720 --> 02:11:13.479
our ICE agents who are out there doing the tough
2274
02:11:13.479 --> 02:11:15.439
work to help clean up our cities. And it's all
2275
02:11:15.479 --> 02:11:18.520
brought to you by American Charlie Grill and Tavern right
2276
02:11:18.560 --> 02:11:21.560
there on Panama City Beach. We will be right back,
2277
02:11:32.359 --> 02:11:34.199
all right, Welcome back to the Bride Rush Show here
2278
02:11:34.239 --> 02:11:36.600
at Florida Man Radio and of course streaming on Rumble
2279
02:11:36.640 --> 02:11:38.439
dot com and Wimken dot com. And today is a
2280
02:11:38.479 --> 02:11:43.439
Red Friday. We remember everyone deployed, including our ICE agents, which,
2281
02:11:43.520 --> 02:11:46.279
by the way, Apple, I don't know if you've heard
2282
02:11:46.279 --> 02:11:49.840
this one. Apple has decided it's going to block the
2283
02:11:50.479 --> 02:11:53.359
ice block app, which is one of the apps that
2284
02:11:53.399 --> 02:11:57.199
has been used by a lot of the anti ICE
2285
02:11:57.279 --> 02:12:01.439
people to track ice to be able to find out
2286
02:12:01.479 --> 02:12:03.800
where they are in real time so that they can
2287
02:12:03.840 --> 02:12:05.880
protest them and other things that of course, remember the
2288
02:12:06.520 --> 02:12:10.239
shooter down in Texas was also using one of the
2289
02:12:10.279 --> 02:12:14.479
ice tracking apps to be able to find out where
2290
02:12:14.479 --> 02:12:18.279
they were and was able to get up on top
2291
02:12:18.319 --> 02:12:21.399
of the roof and take some potshots at them, you know,
2292
02:12:21.479 --> 02:12:25.000
missing his intended target. Hitting the people that he allegedly
2293
02:12:25.520 --> 02:12:28.359
was supporting. But it's good on Apple to see that
2294
02:12:28.399 --> 02:12:30.119
they've done that. I don't know if Google has jumped
2295
02:12:30.119 --> 02:12:32.439
on it as well, but those are the type of
2296
02:12:32.520 --> 02:12:35.680
apps that are dangerous to society and they probably should
2297
02:12:36.119 --> 02:12:40.239
should really get rid of them, because that's just something
2298
02:12:40.239 --> 02:12:43.600
that is not needed. It really isn't. So something else
2299
02:12:43.640 --> 02:12:46.319
that's going on too is the trust in the media.
2300
02:12:46.439 --> 02:12:48.039
I mean, I know that this is a big shocker
2301
02:12:48.119 --> 02:12:51.640
that the people are not trusting the mainstream media anymore,
2302
02:12:52.239 --> 02:12:54.159
but there's a new Gallup poll that is out that
2303
02:12:54.399 --> 02:12:57.920
shows that the public trust in the news has dropped
2304
02:12:57.920 --> 02:13:01.079
to yet another new low. I mean, I didn't think
2305
02:13:01.079 --> 02:13:03.399
it could get any lower, but apparently it does keep
2306
02:13:03.439 --> 02:13:07.039
getting lower. And after hitting a record lows last year,
2307
02:13:07.720 --> 02:13:11.079
the America's trust in the nation's legacy media has sunk
2308
02:13:11.159 --> 02:13:14.079
to a new level. And the Gallup reported yesterday releasing
2309
02:13:14.119 --> 02:13:17.720
its annual survey of US adults and when it began
2310
02:13:17.880 --> 02:13:21.680
back in nineteen seventy two. Just to give you some perspectives,
2311
02:13:21.680 --> 02:13:24.680
so in the past fifty three years, seven in ten
2312
02:13:24.760 --> 02:13:27.920
adults either had a fair amount fifty percent or a
2313
02:13:27.960 --> 02:13:32.119
great deal eighteen percent of trust in newspapers, television and
2314
02:13:32.199 --> 02:13:36.640
radio to report the news fully, accurately and fairly. Today,
2315
02:13:36.800 --> 02:13:39.319
with the new report that was released yesterday, it is
2316
02:13:39.359 --> 02:13:44.279
once again seven and ten. However, it is seven out
2317
02:13:44.279 --> 02:13:48.439
of ten either have not very much confidence or none
2318
02:13:48.560 --> 02:13:52.920
at all in today's media. According to the new Gallup
2319
02:13:53.039 --> 02:13:56.920
poll on the trust in the media, it's gone away
2320
02:13:57.600 --> 02:14:00.119
and it cracks me up though to watch how how
2321
02:14:00.520 --> 02:14:02.720
the mainstream media, the legacy media all stands back and
2322
02:14:02.720 --> 02:14:05.159
goes and I'm a samit it is money in the
2323
02:14:05.159 --> 02:14:10.279
watch ass. We should bring Joy Reid back in. Read
2324
02:14:10.319 --> 02:14:12.920
the room. That's all I gotta say. Just read the
2325
02:14:13.000 --> 02:14:15.600
room and you would be amazed at what you might
2326
02:14:15.640 --> 02:14:17.600
find out. All right, that's it for us. We got
2327
02:14:17.600 --> 02:14:19.800
to get out of here. Happy Friday, and of course
2328
02:14:19.840 --> 02:14:21.560
