Tim Wildmon: Hey, welcome back, everybody, to Today's issues. We got 24 and a half more minutes to go of the program today. I'm Tim with Westing Fred and Steve Paisley. Jordan joins us now. Good morning, brother Steve.
Steve Jordahl: Hey, everybody.
Tim Wildmon: And Jenna's still on the phone with. Well, not on the phone, but she's on something. Comrades, huh? is that a drug or you can. I was hoping to explain that the
Jenna Ellis: side effects include somersaulting involuntarily.
Tim Wildmon: Yes, you know, I've seen that happen before that. all right, so, we were going to wrap this discussion up by talking about the good news from yesterday with RFK Jr. And President Trump's executive order. What can you tell us about that, Jenna?
Jenna Ellis: Yeah, so they signed. His executive order was signed yesterday. And the major provisions are that it reduces, the federal recommended for all children category of vaccines. So the order recognizes routine immunization against 11 million major diseases, but other vaccines, including flu, Cove 19, a big one that we've been talking about. and some of these are placed into either a high risk group or shared clinical decision making, quote unquote categories rather than universally recommended for every child. So, thankfully, Covid will no longer be pushed onto parents. there are a few other major provisions, but on parental rights, the order says that federal programs and funding should support, quote, maximal parental choice consistent with federal law, personal autonomy and informed consent. And so, this is a really a big win for medical freedom and also for parental rights.
Steve Jordahl: Hey, Jenna. Steve here. How you doing?
Tim Wildmon: I'm good.
Jenna Ellis: Great to talk with you. I normally don't get to on ti.
Steve Jordahl: I know, I know.
Jenna Ellis: Ships passing in the next term.
Steve Jordahl: So, it had been kind, of a routine, for parents to. We're going to. My kids got the MMR vaccine, for example. Now, I guess, what are we saying, that we're gonna be able to split that up? Is that, supposed to be safer for my kids? Is this the point?
Jenna Ellis: so the executive order calls for the MMR eventually to be available as three separate vaccines. so measles, mumps, and rubella, while specifically requiring the continued availability of the combination. And so, some suggestions are that this will end up being healthier for children because you don't get any immunized of three major, things simultaneously. and it seems like it's just giving, ah, better options for parents and a better choice.
Tim Wildmon: All right, what do you got?
Steve Jordahl: Yeah, Let me, this is along the same subject you guys were talking about, the COVID mandates, and everything the last hour. Do you remember, Jenna, how we were made to, almost feel like you had to join a cult? The media so intent on pushing, a narrative, the, Fauci narrative that vaccines were necessary. I want to play. I found this, and I'd love to get your comment on this, Jenna, when you hear it, and everybody else, too. This is cnn. It's a report. They found a doctor who had been, had a podcast where he was talking about that the science wasn't settled on the effectiveness of masks and such. And I want you to listen to how it was treated and how he was shamed. This is amazing. It just kind of brought me back to the. Oh, it was a terrible time in our shared history here. Cut. 15.
Speaker D: He is the ultimate super spreader. Not of the coronavirus experts say, but of misinformation about Cove 19. His name is Dr. Joseph Mercola. The center for Countering Digital Hate, a, nonprofit tracking misinformation about Cove online, put Dr. Mercola, an osteopathic physician, at the top of its disinformation dozen. A list of 12 people the group says were the source for sharing 65% of all anti vaccine messaging on Facebook and Twitter from February 1st through mid March. We try to track down Dr. Mercola to ask him about the misinformation he's been posting like masks may not work. Vaccines could be dangerous, and vitamin C and D can prevent or treat the coronavirus. We just want to talk to you about vaccines and what you've been saying about them. Do you feel responsible for people who didn't get vaccinated, possibly got sick and died because of what you told them about the vaccines?
Steve Jordahl: Do you remember those days? It sounds so silly now.
Jenna Ellis: Well, but. But this is where the left is always propagating their own narrative as fact. And anyone who even questions it is then labeled as someone who is a propagator of disinformation or misinformation. And this is why our amendment needs to prevail, across the board. To say that more speech and more discussion is always better than censorship, especially by the government. I mean, that's what was, going on in that time. If you even questioned the narrative, if you question your doctor's recommendation, then suddenly you were labeled as this propagator of misinformation instead of just saying, listen, I want to be informed. I want to make the best decision for Myself and my family. And if this can happen during the pushed upon us fear of coronavirus, this can happen in a variety of other ways if we are not eternally vigilant to ensure that the government doesn't tell us what to think or how to think, and that we should always question the prevailing narrative. I mean, one of the great things about religious freedom as well in this country, and it's centered on a biblical worldview, is that God created the universe and allows us to ask those questions. There's never been one instance in scripture where someone was asking God a question and got punished for it or got corrected for it. this has always been something where we seek out truth and it is discoverable and we want to know things and we want to challenge presumptions to ultimately get at the truth. And our government should support that and we should always require them to support it.
Tim Wildmon: Yeah. All right, Jenna, take care. Thanks for being on with us. Look forward to tomorrow's show.
Jenna Ellis: Sounds good.
Speaker E: Thanks guys.
Jenna Ellis: Great to talk with you.
Tim Wildmon: Bye. Bye. That's Jenna Ellis. she is the host of Jenna Ellis in the Morning. So if you want to hear from her, each day on current events, what's happening in our country and our world, and from a biblical, worldview perspective and a constitutional perspective and a freedom loving perspective, go to, just join us every day right here on this station for Jana Ellis in the morning from 7 to 8 o' clock Central time right here on American Family Radio. So, Steve, did you hear about this decoy that President Trump used to.
Steve Jordahl: Yeah, yeah, I did. apparently, when he was, he,
Tim Wildmon: was duck hunting. Yeah, it was pretty amazing, this duck hunting in a. You got in the blind.
Speaker F: No.
Tim Wildmon: okay.
Steve Jordahl: He was duck hunting in a catering truck. I guess that's what he was doing.
Tim Wildmon: Let me read the first couple paragraphs and Steve, you can comment on this. All right. Trump was in Turkey.
Fred Jackson: Yep.
Tim Wildmon: when was that? A couple weeks ago. Something like that.
Speaker H: Yep.
Tim Wildmon: This is a story from the Telegraph, which is a British, online news agency or tabloid. Says Donald Trump hid in an airport catering lorry. What's a lorry?
Steve Jordahl: It's a truck. So they call a truck in Canada.
Tim Wildmon: In Britain, they just call it a truck. Anyway, Donald Trump. Donald Trump hid in an airport catering lorry to be flown out of Turkey after an Iranian assassination attempt. It has been revealed the president was secretly transferred to a military aircraft to leave last month's NATO summit in Ankara. A N K A R A with Air force. That's in Turkey. Right. With Air Force One used as a high profile decoy.
Fred Jackson: Yep.
Tim Wildmon: According to US Intelligence Services. Go ahead, Fred. Then, Steve.
Fred Jackson: Yeah. This was a big summit. Trump was.
Tim Wildmon: I remember it. Yeah.
Fred Jackson: Meeting with Erdogan, et cetera. While they were there, the Secret Service received what was regarded as a credible threat that the Iranians were out to assassinate Trump while he was there. So you remember President Trump flew to Ankara, Turkey, on the new Air Force One. The old, When they got this threat, they flew over the old Air Force One, and President, Trump was seen boarding that old Air Force One, going in that door. We see that picture all the time. According to this report, when he got on the old Air Force One, a lot of these big planes had elevators down to the cargo area. What the story is is that Secret Service put him on this elevator to go down, and he, was put on one of the food trucks. You know, when you go to the airport.
Tim Wildmon: Yeah. These trucks seen him at the airport. Yeah.
Fred Jackson: Apparently he was put on board that and then secretly transported at the airport there to another Air Force plane. And, So we're just finding out about this. Is it true? I don't think the White House has made a comment yet on this.
Steve Jordahl: I saw someone ask the President about it in a scrum on board Air, Force One. It would have been today or yesterday. And, he said he didn't confirm or talk about the seriousness of that particular threat, but he did say he is the number one target for Iranian, that he is under threat from Iran of assassination. And he told the reporter, if I go, you go, because, of course, they're all on the plane together. So.
Fred Jackson: But apparently there were. This was done so well, if it's true, it was done so well by the Secret Service that even some White House personnel aboard that Air Force One did not know this transpired.
Tim Wildmon: Oh, that's what the article goes on to say. I was quoting from the, from the Telegraph. It says the White House press corps and senior aides on board the presidential jet remained unaware, that Mr. Trump was traveling on another aircraft during an extraordinary security operation. It says American intelligence agencies had flagged a plot by the Iranian proxy forces to target the president's plane. Again, this is when he was in Turkey amid tensions between, Washington and Tehran over the war in the Middle East.
Fred Jackson: Yep.
Tim Wildmon: Wesley, any thoughts on this? No, nothing to add. It's a great.
Fred Jackson: It's a great movie.
Steve Jordahl: Yeah.
Tim Wildmon: Great movie.
Steve Jordahl: Now, maybe Harrison Ford could play the President.
Tim Wildmon: I wonder if we got any video footage of inside the food truck, of the Secret Service and President Trump. That's a one and done, though. You can't try that again. Well, you're probably right about that. But how would you like to be a member of the White House press corps or one of his senior aides learning that they left you on a plane that was a target?
Fred Jackson: all of a sudden I feel expendable.
Tim Wildmon: Yeah, we'll get the President out. The rest of you people, sorry we're going to put you all at risk here. But you know, that's probably Secret Service protocol and nobody likes to think of, you know, somebody else dying on an airplane who didn't know if indeed the plane was attacked. But at the same time, the Secret Service job is to protect the President of the United States, not. Not aids. I don't mean to sound cold, but that's the truth. Isn't that the truth? I mean that's their job. Yeah, you have to protect the President first and foremost. Go ahead, Fred.
Fred Jackson: That was interesting. They flew in the old Air Force One because the old Air Force One has certain counter missile capabilities that the new Air Force One had not been equipped with at least yet.
Tim Wildmon: So let me ask you guys this. Do you know this because, and I know that in movies, I know that if Harrison Ford's in a movie, he's going to have the final call. He was in a series. What was it, what was that movie based on that Thom Clancy novel that.
Steve Jordahl: Yeah, some of them fears he's been,
Tim Wildmon: Harrison Ford was in no, Clear Present danger.
Fred Jackson: Yes.
Tim Wildmon: Yeah, he played the President and he got. The plane got attacked, didn't it?
Steve Jordahl: No, the, the Air Force. The movie called Air Force One was Air Force One.
Tim Wildmon: That's Air Force One. But wasn't. Anyway, the point is the question I have that I don't know if you guys have an answer for this or not. When it comes to a security matter, does the President have any say?
Steve Jordahl: He does not have the final call.
Tim Wildmon: Does he know this?
Steve Jordahl: Yes, he does. The Secret Service will physically manhandle him if necessary and get him down on the ground and off so he.
Tim Wildmon: So Trump could not say. Or maybe they work it out with him in advance. You know, I'm sure they have a good relationship. I'm talking about Trump and his team and Secret Service. But they say to him, you're getting on a food truck, come with us.
Tim Wildmon: We're going to lower you down and we're going to do a David Copperfield Deal here. Could he say, you know what, guys, my legs hurting today and I'm just gonna roll with it? Thanks, but no thanks.
Steve Jordahl: I don't think. I don't have that definite answer. I did. He did address something, though. He said in the same interview he was talking with this reporter. The reporters, on the plane, Air Force One, were asked to lower their window, blinds, so that the, whoever couldn't see in. And the reporter, asked the President, were you asked to lower yours? He said, I was not, but if I had been, I would have lowered them.
Tim Wildmon: Yeah.
Steve Jordahl: So he is. He knows. I, think he knows.
Tim Wildmon: He knows that Secret Service is. And of course, you know, they've been with him. He didn't have the Secret Service during the assassination tip in Pennsylvania, did he? Or did he have a small detail, smaller detail, or it wasn't paid for or something? I remember there was some controversy.
Fred Jackson: Well, there was. Basically the local Secret Service did not. The accusation was they didn't do a very good job.
Tim Wildmon: Well, I know that, we need to say a prayer for President Trump's safety because, as he said, we're at a time of war, with an enemy that would love nothing better than to kill and assassinate, or, you know, both mean the same thing. The President of the United States, Donald Trump. I mean, if the Iranians could do that, they would, no question about it. so that, of course, when you're president, you're always on heightened alert. Right. That's why you have a Secret Service. That's why they take all the safety measures that they do and use decoys, and they use, different routes in and out of buildings and on roads. But, this is, this is a heightened sense of danger, in the right now.
Fred Jackson: Well, and the fact that there have been at least three other attempts at assassinating. Of course, we had the original one, but the golf courses, there's been two golf course attempts now.
Tim Wildmon: Right.
Fred Jackson: there are bad people out there.
Tim Wildmon: All right, Steve, next story.
Steve Jordahl: All right, we've been talking about Democrat Socialists of America, dsa. If you start asking them detailed questions, they kind of tend to fall apart. We have a couple examples I want to bring to you. we have had Megan Romer, who was the, vice chairman or co chair of the Democrat Socialists of America before. She's the lady that went on Fox and was explicit about some of the things that they want to do like get rid of the Senate. Well, she was talking, with David Remick of the NewSong York Radio hour on August 7th. And this is just becoming, making the rounds now. That's why we're playing it now. But she was asked, basically she was asked about the taxing. they want to. You want to tax the rich. What's that mean? She had a little hard time determining exactly what that meant. Listen to cut 12.
Speaker H: But we do believe in taxing millionaires. Yeah, absolutely.
Fred Jackson: Well, what does taxing mean?
Speaker H: yeah, you know, again, I don't have, like, a solid. But.
Speaker D: But I think.
Fred Jackson: But shouldn't you. I mean, if you're the co.
Speaker D: Chair.
Fred Jackson: If you're the co. Chair of the dsa, shouldn't you be more specific than just taxing something? What exactly do you mean?
Speaker H: So, again, it's democracy, right? And we have to look at what we need to spend and what we need. We don't want to depend on the existence of millionaires because that means people are still getting exploited. So. So, yeah, we need to. We need to look at what we need to pay for in the interim. What. What sort of tax base we need for that to happen. And then, And build from there.
Fred Jackson: She went to the Kamala Harris school of word salad.
Steve Jordahl: Exactly. I want to play a second if I can. there's a lady named Frances Gill.
Tim Wildmon: Keep going.
Jenna Ellis: I want more.
Steve Jordahl: Yeah. Who is the national leader of the Democrat Socialists of America, longtime socialist organizer, and she was on NBC4 in Los Angeles with a guy, a, host named Conan Nolan, who asked her another pointed question. This one got even a little bit more, specific. Listen, to cut 13, policy
Speaker F: agenda on m. Law enforcement is to defund police, ultimately to get rid of police departments, Correct.
Speaker E: Well, what I would say is that we're dramatically overspending on police right now.
Speaker F: I understand the goal is to defund the police department so we don't need them in the future.
Speaker E: I think it's what we really want to see is a horizon where folks are not, reliant on armed enforcement to meet our public safety needs.
Speaker F: Right. But it says defund police on the website. That's your goal and also to get rid of prisons and jails, correct?
Speaker E: Yes.
Speaker F: so if my. My daughter is assaulted and raped, is there any agency that would seek to, find her assailant and bring him to justice?
Speaker E: Of course. Yeah, of course.
Speaker F: What would it be if not police? And where would he be if not a jail?
Speaker E: So, I guess I really. I really want to avoid getting kind of caught into these hypotheticals, and talk more about the reality that we're actually facing Right.
Tim Wildmon: Now, who is that?
Steve Jordahl: That was a lady, named Frances Gill. G I L l She's, she's a leader. She's on the national political Committee for the.
Tim Wildmon: You've heard the expression, not the sharpest knives in the drawer. I'm not sure they're even in the drawer. Okay. These two people that first Bozo, and my apologies to Bozo, her name is Megan Romer. Apologies to Bozo, by the way, said, okay. All they're being asked to do is defend simple positions that they advocate for. That's it. Okay. As the Democrat socialists, they say, tax the rich. Well, he's saying, who's the rich? And then how much and how much? And shouldn't you be able to answer that? Yes, you should be able to answer that. That's, so why. She can't be prepared for that kind of. That should be easily answered. Okay. She's to say, well, we want to tax the millionaires, 80% of their income. Whatever you want to say, but you're going to have to come up with. You have to have a number. You can't just talk in generalities when you're getting ready to advance your. Trying to advance your political position. Also the, second lady there, Frances Gill, Francis Gill, she's, she's asked about what do you do about crime if you don't have police and you don't have jails? And her answer was she didn't want to get caught in. Up in hypotheticals.
Steve Jordahl: Then she went on to talk about the fact that Los Angeles needs better street lights anyway.
Tim Wildmon: These people are beyond whack a doodle, okay? They're in a land of their own beyond wackadooda land. They can see wackadoodle land and then
Steve Jordahl: waving goodbye to it.
Tim Wildmon: And then you get in a boat and you go across an ocean and you come to these people, you know where they live?
Fred Jackson: These are people who have gone to university. Most of them have degrees. they've gone to university and they listen to some professor up there saying, the police are all bad. We need to get rid of them, et cetera, et cetera. And they say, yeah, they shake their head, yes, yes, sir. Three bags full, sir. Whatever you say, sir. And then they come out now they've started a party of their own. And when they're challenged, though. Well, we didn't discuss that in the classroom. M so I can't answer that question.
Tim Wildmon: Yeah, we don't talk about this at our meetings. Actual solutions and answers.
Fred Jackson: No.
Tim Wildmon: And, if you're going to say defund the police. That guy. Good for him. That reporter said it says that on your website. Defund police. And now you're trying to, you know, trying to dodge the question. An answer to the question. Well, it's funny and ridiculous, but, those people that we just heard from, some of their candidates are winning on the Democrat ticket.
Steve Jordahl: Absolutely.
Fred Jackson: Yep.
Tim Wildmon: some of them are winning. And there's great consternation now inside the Democrat Party from the traditionalists, some of the people who are longtime establishment type folks that the people you just heard from are going to run as Democrats and cause the Democrat Party to lose elections that, they otherwise might win. Is that true?
Steve Jordahl: Well, they are. They're starting to complain. But whether or not they will be able to have, their voices heard, that's the civil war in the Democrats.
Tim Wildmon: It is. That's a good way to describe it. It's a civil war inside the Democrat Party. And, so we'll see how that impacts especially the midterms because, you know, traditionally the, the power, the whatever party holds the White House at the midterms loses seats. But will that happen this time? Yeah, will that happen this time? And if it doesn't happen this time, probably these kind of crazies on the far, far left would be the reason why it doesn't happen. All right, we're out of time. M I thanks to Wesley, Fred, Steve, Krish, Jenna, Copper, Todd, of course. All right, Jonathan, is Cole Greene even listening to us in there? He is. Okay. He's our video man. He is listening to the show today. I saw a candy crush on his phone earlier. That's why I wondered about that deal. No, I'm just kidding. Just teasing. Cole does a great job. We'll see you tomorrow, everybody.
Tim Wildmon: Hey, welcome back, everybody, to Today's issues. We got 24 and a half more minutes to go of the program today. I'm Tim with Westing Fred and Steve Paisley. Jordan joins us now. Good morning, brother Steve.
Steve Jordahl: Hey, everybody.
Tim Wildmon: And Jenna's still on the phone with. Well, not on the phone, but she's on something. Comrades, huh? is that a drug or you can. I was hoping to explain that the
Jenna Ellis: side effects include somersaulting involuntarily.
Tim Wildmon: Yes, you know, I've seen that happen before that. all right, so, we were going to wrap this discussion up by talking about the good news from yesterday with RFK Jr. And President Trump's executive order. What can you tell us about that, Jenna?
Jenna Ellis: Yeah, so they signed. His executive order was signed yesterday. And the major provisions are that it reduces, the federal recommended for all children category of vaccines. So the order recognizes routine immunization against 11 million major diseases, but other vaccines, including flu, Cove 19, a big one that we've been talking about. and some of these are placed into either a high risk group or shared clinical decision making, quote unquote categories rather than universally recommended for every child. So, thankfully, Covid will no longer be pushed onto parents. there are a few other major provisions, but on parental rights, the order says that federal programs and funding should support, quote, maximal parental choice consistent with federal law, personal autonomy and informed consent.

Tim Wildmon: Oh, that's what the article goes on to say. I was quoting from the, from the Telegraph. It says the White House press corps and senior aides on board the presidential jet remained unaware, that Mr. Trump was traveling on another aircraft during an extraordinary security operation. It says American intelligence agencies had flagged a plot by the Iranian proxy forces to target the president's plane. Again, this is when he was in Turkey amid tensions between, Washington and Tehran over the war in the Middle East.
Fred Jackson: Yep.
Tim Wildmon: Wesley, any thoughts on this? No, nothing to add. It's a great.
Fred Jackson: It's a great movie.
Steve Jordahl: Yeah.
Tim Wildmon: Great movie.
Steve Jordahl: Now, maybe Harrison Ford could play the President.
Tim Wildmon: I wonder if we got any video footage of inside the food truck, of the Secret Service and President Trump. That's a one and done, though. You can't try that again. Well, you're probably right about that. But how would you like to be a member of the White House press corps or one of his senior aides learning that they left you on a plane that was a target?
Fred Jackson: all of a sudden I feel expendable.
Tim Wildmon: Yeah, we'll get the President out. The rest of you people, sorry we're going to put you all at risk here. But you know, that's probably Secret Service protocol and nobody likes to think of, you know, somebody else dying on an airplane who didn't know if indeed the plane was attacked. But at the same time, the Secret Service job is to protect the President of the United States, not. Not aids. I don't mean to sound cold, but that's the truth. Isn't that the truth? I mean that's their job. Yeah, you have to protect the President first and foremost. Go ahead, Fred.
Fred Jackson: That was interesting. They flew in the old Air Force One because the old Air Force One has certain counter missile capabilities that the new Air Force One had not been equipped with at least yet.
Tim Wildmon: So let me ask you guys this. Do you know this because, and I know that in movies, I know that if Harrison Ford's in a movie, he's going to have the final call. He was in a series. What was it, what was that movie based on that Thom Clancy novel that.
Steve Jordahl: Yeah, some of them fears he's been,
Tim Wildmon: Harrison Ford was in no, Clear Present danger.
Fred Jackson: Yes.
Tim Wildmon: Yeah, he played the President and he got. The plane got attacked, didn't it?
Steve Jordahl: No, the, the Air Force. The movie called Air Force One was Air Force One.
Tim Wildmon: That's Air Force One. But wasn't. Anyway, the point is the question I have that I don't know if you guys have an answer for this or not. When it comes to a security matter, does the President have any say?
Steve Jordahl: He does not have the final call.
Tim Wildmon: Does he know this?
Steve Jordahl: Yes, he does. The Secret Service will physically manhandle him if necessary and get him down on the ground and off so he.
Tim Wildmon: So Trump could not say. Or maybe they work it out with him in advance. You know, I'm sure they have a good relationship. I'm talking about Trump and his team and Secret Service. But they say to him, you're getting on a food truck, come with us.
Tim Wildmon: We're going to lower you down and we're going to do a David Copperfield Deal here. Could he say, you know what, guys, my legs hurting today and I'm just gonna roll with it? Thanks, but no thanks.
Steve Jordahl: I don't think. I don't have that definite answer. I did. He did address something, though. He said in the same interview he was talking with this reporter. The reporters, on the plane, Air Force One, were asked to lower their window, blinds, so that the, whoever couldn't see in. And the reporter, asked the President, were you asked to lower yours? He said, I was not, but if I had been, I would have lowered them.
Tim Wildmon: Yeah.
Steve Jordahl: So he is. He knows. I, think he knows.
Tim Wildmon: He knows that Secret Service is. And of course, you know, they've been with him. He didn't have the Secret Service during the assassination tip in Pennsylvania, did he? Or did he have a small detail, smaller detail, or it wasn't paid for or something? I remember there was some controversy.
Fred Jackson: Well, there was. Basically the local Secret Service did not. The accusation was they didn't do a very good job.
Tim Wildmon: Well, I know that, we need to say a prayer for President Trump's safety because, as he said, we're at a time of war, with an enemy that would love nothing better than to kill and assassinate, or, you know, both mean the same thing. The President of the United States, Donald Trump. I mean, if the Iranians could do that, they would, no question about it. so that, of course, when you're president, you're always on heightened alert. Right. That's why you have a Secret Service. That's why they take all the safety measures that they do and use decoys, and they use, different routes in and out of buildings and on roads. But, this is, this is a heightened sense of danger, in the right now.
Fred Jackson: Well, and the fact that there have been at least three other attempts at assassinating. Of course, we had the original one, but the golf courses, there's been two golf course attempts now.
Tim Wildmon: Right.
Fred Jackson: there are bad people out there.
Tim Wildmon: All right, Steve, next story.
Steve Jordahl: All right, we've been talking about Democrat Socialists of America, dsa. If you start asking them detailed questions, they kind of tend to fall apart. We have a couple examples I want to bring to you. we have had Megan Romer, who was the, vice chairman or co chair of the Democrat Socialists of America before. She's the lady that went on Fox and was explicit about some of the things that they want to do like get rid of the Senate. Well, she was talking, with David Remick of the NewSong York Radio hour on August 7th. And this is just becoming, making the rounds now. That's why we're playing it now. But she was asked, basically she was asked about the taxing. they want to. You want to tax the rich. What's that mean? She had a little hard time determining exactly what that meant. Listen to cut 12.
Speaker H: But we do believe in taxing millionaires. Yeah, absolutely.
Fred Jackson: Well, what does taxing mean?
Speaker H: yeah, you know, again, I don't have, like, a solid. But.
Speaker D: But I think.
Fred Jackson: But shouldn't you. I mean, if you're the co.
Speaker D: Chair.
Fred Jackson: If you're the co. Chair of the dsa, shouldn't you be more specific than just taxing something? What exactly do you mean?
Speaker H: So, again, it's democracy, right? And we have to look at what we need to spend and what we need. We don't want to depend on the existence of millionaires because that means people are still getting exploited. So. So, yeah, we need to. We need to look at what we need to pay for in the interim. What. What sort of tax base we need for that to happen. And then, And build from there.
Fred Jackson: She went to the Kamala Harris school of word salad.
Steve Jordahl: Exactly. I want to play a second if I can. there's a lady named Frances Gill.
Tim Wildmon: Keep going.
Jenna Ellis: I want more.
Steve Jordahl: Yeah. Who is the national leader of the Democrat Socialists of America, longtime socialist organizer, and she was on NBC4 in Los Angeles with a guy, a, host named Conan Nolan, who asked her another pointed question. This one got even a little bit more, specific. Listen, to cut 13, policy
Speaker F: agenda on m. Law enforcement is to defund police, ultimately to get rid of police departments, Correct.
Speaker E: Well, what I would say is that we're dramatically overspending on police right now.
Speaker F: I understand the goal is to defund the police department so we don't need them in the future.
Speaker E: I think it's what we really want to see is a horizon where folks are not, reliant on armed enforcement to meet our public safety needs.
Speaker F: Right. But it says defund police on the website. That's your goal and also to get rid of prisons and jails, correct?
Speaker E: Yes.
Speaker F: so if my. My daughter is assaulted and raped, is there any agency that would seek to, find her assailant and bring him to justice?
Speaker E: Of course. Yeah, of course.
Speaker F: What would it be if not police? And where would he be if not a jail?
Speaker E: So, I guess I really. I really want to avoid getting kind of caught into these hypotheticals, and talk more about the reality that we're actually facing Right.
Tim Wildmon: Now, who is that?
Steve Jordahl: That was a lady, named Frances Gill. G I L l She's, she's a leader. She's on the national political Committee for the.
Tim Wildmon: You've heard the expression, not the sharpest knives in the drawer. I'm not sure they're even in the drawer. Okay. These two people that first Bozo, and my apologies to Bozo, her name is Megan Romer. Apologies to Bozo, by the way, said, okay. All they're being asked to do is defend simple positions that they advocate for. That's it. Okay. As the Democrat socialists, they say, tax the rich. Well, he's saying, who's the rich? And then how much and how much? And shouldn't you be able to answer that? Yes, you should be able to answer that. That's, so why. She can't be prepared for that kind of. That should be easily answered. Okay. She's to say, well, we want to tax the millionaires, 80% of their income. Whatever you want to say, but you're going to have to come up with. You have to have a number. You can't just talk in generalities when you're getting ready to advance your. Trying to advance your political position. Also the, second lady there, Frances Gill, Francis Gill, she's, she's asked about what do you do about crime if you don't have police and you don't have jails? And her answer was she didn't want to get caught in. Up in hypotheticals.
Steve Jordahl: Then she went on to talk about the fact that Los Angeles needs better street lights anyway.
Tim Wildmon: These people are beyond whack a doodle, okay? They're in a land of their own beyond wackadooda land. They can see wackadoodle land and then
Steve Jordahl: waving goodbye to it.
Tim Wildmon: And then you get in a boat and you go across an ocean and you come to these people, you know where they live?
Fred Jackson: These are people who have gone to university. Most of them have degrees. they've gone to university and they listen to some professor up there saying, the police are all bad. We need to get rid of them, et cetera, et cetera. And they say, yeah, they shake their head, yes, yes, sir. Three bags full, sir. Whatever you say, sir. And then they come out now they've started a party of their own. And when they're challenged, though. Well, we didn't discuss that in the classroom. M so I can't answer that question.
Tim Wildmon: Yeah, we don't talk about this at our meetings. Actual solutions and answers.
Fred Jackson: No.
Tim Wildmon: And, if you're going to say defund the police. That guy. Good for him. That reporter said it says that on your website. Defund police. And now you're trying to, you know, trying to dodge the question. An answer to the question. Well, it's funny and ridiculous, but, those people that we just heard from, some of their candidates are winning on the Democrat ticket.
Steve Jordahl: Absolutely.
Fred Jackson: Yep.
Tim Wildmon: some of them are winning. And there's great consternation now inside the Democrat Party from the traditionalists, some of the people who are longtime establishment type folks that the people you just heard from are going to run as Democrats and cause the Democrat Party to lose elections that, they otherwise might win. Is that true?
Steve Jordahl: Well, they are. They're starting to complain. But whether or not they will be able to have, their voices heard, that's the civil war in the Democrats.
Tim Wildmon: It is. That's a good way to describe it. It's a civil war inside the Democrat Party. And, so we'll see how that impacts especially the midterms because, you know, traditionally the, the power, the whatever party holds the White House at the midterms loses seats. But will that happen this time? Yeah, will that happen this time? And if it doesn't happen this time, probably these kind of crazies on the far, far left would be the reason why it doesn't happen. All right, we're out of time. M I thanks to Wesley, Fred, Steve, Krish, Jenna, Copper, Todd, of course. All right, Jonathan, is Cole Greene even listening to us in there? He is. Okay. He's our video man. He is listening to the show today. I saw a candy crush on his phone earlier. That's why I wondered about that deal. No, I'm just kidding. Just teasing. Cole does a great job. We'll see you tomorrow, everybody.
