And due to contractual obligations and to shield our airwaves and corporate licensees

This radio show contains differing points of view on current political topics, and due
to the nature of its contents, it should be heard by everyone.
Thank you for listening.
Now live from the Devil Radio Studios in Madison, Wisconsin, where the political party is just
beginning.
Welcome to the Devil's Advocate Show.
Friends proving it's never personal, only politics.
Here is your host, Mike Crote.
Welcome back to the Devil's Advocates Radio Show.
The Wednesday happier, happier hour rolling into it.
And we welcome a fine guest, a colleague of ours, a friend of the devil's, he's Earl
Ingram, host of the Earl Ingram show, originating from W-A-U-K and Milwaukee, heard statewide
on the Civic Media Network, our pal, Earl, how you doing, Earl?
Hey, Earl.
I'm doing fine.
Hey, good morning.
Good evening to you, Dom and Crote.
But what I just want to say before we get started is, why are we wasting time on this?
Are you able to tell the Swift is coming to the Lambo field?
I'm from rumor.
The Swifties might be at Lambo because Travis Kelsey is coming.
I was listening to you in James and talking about what the media is going to be covering.
We know some breaking story, Taylor Swift's coming to Milwaukee, but in Green Bay, but
anyway, go ahead.
Earl, we have the problem, Earl.
We missed that headline, but we did see a column by our mutual friend, James Cosby, and
I know you know James well.
He's a columnist journalist at the Milwaukee Journal signal and he wrote a pretty candid article
today, Earl.
I know you read it.
We verified.
I'm going to repeat it for the audience's sake.
I'm worn from years of racial slurs, but I'll no longer be silent about bigotry.
Now James told us this piece was sort of aggrined.
He had to go back to this piece.
He had to consider what he wanted to put down on paper.
And Earl, I want to get your reaction when you first read it.
Well as you stated, James Cosby is a couple of decades younger than I am, and I've known
him for a long time, and he's certainly now over 40 and he's no longer got to be concerned
about his job as he's getting closer to retirement.
Oh come on, Earl.
You all got to worry about working, Pete.
Well, but he's free now to challenge what he's had to be silent on for a long time as
a guy who writes for newspaper.
He certainly was not free to say the things that he really wanted to say.
And so now he's gotten to a point where he's there.
And so he can say the things that he probably couldn't have said 10 years ago or 15 years
ago.
All those things were happening then, just like they are now, it's nothing new.
Earl, you've been on the radio here with Dom and I since at least when we came on the
air, I believe in February of 2017 initially, as station owners and colleagues and guys just
scrambling to try and figure it out.
Earl, from your perspective through the radio show, do you feel like you've been targeted
for racism?
No, you know, I haven't been targeted for race through the airways.
If you ask me if I've been targeted for race in my life, absolutely.
But not through the radio station and, you know, it's a different thing.
One of the things is I'm careful about the conversations that I have on the airways.
I'm also mindful of the fact that I'm a black man in the state of Wisconsin.
It's only 5% black and there's many of the people who listen, you know, don't look like
me because there clearly is only 5% of the state and many of the people who are listening
don't see a black person physically, you know, every day.
And it's a rare opportunity.
So it's hard for people who don't get to see people who are different than them.
And to really draw conclusions about who those people are other than what they hear
somewhere else.
Earl, before I let Dom take a crack at you, I got to give you credit.
I learned from you on your radio program in Milwaukee about the housing marches in the
late 1960s.
And Earl, I grew up paying attention in history class as a kid and here in the great
state of Wisconsin, I got to tell you, man, I didn't know about father, Gropy.
I didn't know about the housing marches.
I didn't know about the redlining that happened systematically in Milwaukee till I learned
it from you, sir, right here on the radio.
So you got me, Earl?
Yeah, I'm here.
So I guess if there's a question there, Earl, can you can, well, it's not a question.
Set some context.
Tell people what it was like.
Let's say a little bit earlier in your life in the community you live in.
Also, you know, I was alive when Dr. King in the Civil Rights Movement was going on.
I was 14 years old, so I was well along the way of becoming a young man when the Civil
Rights Movement was taking place in my life.
And so it impacted and affected me in a major way.
You know, black people were locked into a very small area in the city of Milwaukee.
We weren't in other parts of the area, in other parts of the state, but very few of us
because the state of Wisconsin was where the underground railroad, many blacks came through
the south and wound up the underground railroad ran through Wisconsin.
So you could find sprinkles of some blacks across the state of Wisconsin.
But the majority of it is then what it is now and that's segregated.
And so it was that way in Milwaukee until 1967 and the Civil Rights laws came into play,
forced into play by all the riots and all the issues in 1968, monumental year, that forced
a society to change things and to at least open the door to American citizens who hadn't
been treated in that manner.
I'm sure listening to the doubles, because radio show Earl Ingerum Jr. post on the Civil
Media Network, talking a little race today, Earl certainly appreciate it, responding and
reflecting on James Cosby's article today in the Milwaukee General Sentinel, Earl, one
of my fondest memories with you is going around, we did the bus tour of the marches from
the 60s.
And I was your producer, man, I had the gear, making sure all the sound was right, and you
were talking to a lot of these folks that were there and marching at the time.
And I just, it's still stunning to me that if a bunch of folks walked across the bridge
are getting bricks and bottles thrown at them by a community that didn't want them there.
Earl, it was very violent, it was very specific, it was very targeted.
The differences in the years between someone like you and a younger James Cosby and perhaps
some of the younger African-American kids today.
Why do you think the perception of race has changed or has it between those generations
and the struggles that go on?
Well, I think it's a great question down, but I will answer it this way.
You know, there's this push for people, some people, and especially Republicans in
the white community who don't want history taught.
And they don't want history taught because they say they don't want their children to
feel bad about the history of this nation.
So they want to bury that history because it makes their children feel bad.
Well, guess what?
On the other side of that equation are, you know, the children of black people who have
been mistreated since they've been in this nation and continue to this day.
And I fight on a daily basis to try to educate our young people about why the conditions
are where they are with our people and our communities and why we don't seem to be able
to overcome things and why, you know, we live in ghettos and why we don't own things
and why we don't have generation of wealth.
And so you cannot pass up the history and what transpired.
And my dad who lived to be the ripe old age of 93 never got to see justice, freedom,
equality in this nation he fought in the Filipino War.
His father never saw freedom, complete freedom.
I'll be 70 years old, I'll die without there being any equality in this nation.
And my sons, I'm pretty sure who are 40 and a little bit above 40, they'll never see
it.
So we have to face the reality of what is happening in our nation.
And since black people only make up 12% of the global population, of the national population
of this nation, it's easy then to look at blacks who only make up 12% of the population
as the trouble.
And I don't think most people in this nation understand that black people only make
up 12% of the population of this nation.
So it's easy to point the finger and say that all these bad things that are happening
is because of those people.
And nobody ever looks to see how those people have been treated and continue to be treated
in the nation that claims to be the freest.
And the nation that claims to have a Bill of Rights and a Constitution that supposedly
says all of us are equal when we know that's not true.
Politically.
We all do politics for a living kind of junkies here and we're going to run short on time
here.
Also, if you've got a few more men's, we'll keep you past.
But here's my question.
Do you feel like the black community is commoditized every two to four years when the election
cycles come around?
Correct.
You're 100% correct.
And I will say this to you, not just Republicans, is it somewhere along the line people think
that this, you know, racism is our only Republicans, is not the case.
And so you don't have to, you know, use a racial epitaph to discriminate against someone.
And Democrats are making a major mistake.
They show up in our neighborhoods and in our communities when it's time, you know, for
election.
And so they understand the value of our vote because America is kind of split down the
middle with whites, Democrats, and Republicans.
And if black people really understood their power and their value, because they can be
the determining factor and have been and who becomes president of the United States
every four years, you know, some people who understand that.
Girl, I'm sorry.
I should have known better than to interrupt my elder.
You know, you're the guy that introduced me to the waffles and fried chicken down a
coffee makes you black.
I heard James Cosby, somebody stiffed him for lunch there.
I'm like, they missed out on the waffles and the fried chicken.
Girl would have never missed out on that lunch.
Stick around a little more, Earl Ingram with the devil's advocates.
Always appreciate coming around, Earl.
Appreciate it, the opportunity.
Hold tight, man.
We're not saying goodbye yet.
The devil's advocates, never personal, only politics.
Come back to the devil's advocates radio show, make sure you download the civic media
app, take the devil's advocates and the Earl Ingram Jr show with you anywhere at you
go, you can click on a text, click to call, go to your favorite app store and download
the civic media app.
Earl, I've known you since you were a young man of 62, I believe.
Thanks for sticking around, fellow.
Hope you're not missing the early bird buffet.
Come on, man.
Earl, we were starting to talk a little politics as it regards to race.
We saw Bob Spendell who is a Wisconsin elections commissioner and a fake elector, but setting
that aside, he's also a Republican congressional CD chairman and he was out there making the
bold brag that they had helped suppress something like 28,000 black and Latino votes in the
community of Milwaukee and that had helped Ron Johnson win reelection in 22 over Mandela
Barnes.
Earl, what did that look like?
What did that sound like?
Well, you know, back in 1965, there was something called a voting rights bill and right
now, in 2021, John Lewis, a prominent black senator who actually marched across the
Edmund Pettis bridge and took a horrible beating as a young college student with many
others as they were marching to make it possible for black people to vote 1965.
And now there's in two years ago, they brought up a new John Lewis voting rights bill.
Why?
Because rights have been taken away, systematically taken away by conservatives going back to
Scott Walker and others who came up with, you know, you got to have a pitch voter ID and
you know, you can't have, you can't give people water in line, doesn't matter if it's
100 degrees outside, you can't give them any water because if you're doing that, the
people don't know any better and you're not smart enough so you're trying to lead them
down the path to voting and you're controlling them because they don't know those things
themselves.
That is horrible.
It's deplorable and yet it still goes on in this country.
It is heartbreaking and my fight and many others like me is to why we still have some time
left to fight for the children who come after us.
They may not be able to fight the fight that we still can because we lived at a time
when we saw this happening before us.
We recently had Angela laying from black leaders organizing community on Earl.
There was a political piece I think someone wrote a long form article about the door knocking
campaigns currently going on and they invest lots of time and lots of energy into this effort
and they're knocking the doors right now and it's a tough knock for the Democratic Party
and the black communities.
According to Angela, why is that and what do you think changes and does it change between
now and 24?
Well, the reason it is is because I know Angela will and I'm sure she knows these demographics.
The city of Milwaukee has one of the youngest populations, black populations in the nation.
It's no longer what it was where we had a group of voters who were in my age demographic
who voted all the time.
It's four of young people, many who've never voted, many who are not old enough to vote and
so there's a finite number of people that you have to get and many of them have given
up on voting because they don't believe it's going to change anything for them.
They voted for Barack Obama because everybody told them if you come out and vote for Barack
Obama, the Democrats said your life is going to change.
Well, that didn't happen and so many of those people who did vote didn't come out again
because the one time that they thought that they would see change, they didn't see it.
And so it's a tough ask to get people dumb and crude who struggle every day to keep a
roof over their head, food in their mouths.
The community in which we live, black people live, is a wasteland and people need to understand
that and the last thing people are thinking about is voting, they're thinking about surviving.
Great point, Earl Ingram, Jr.
And what's the motivation for perhaps those that are politically not aligned with the
black community to change any of that because what if people don't have as much worry about
keeping a roof over their head and food in their bellies and they actually have time to
look up and engage in self-governance and vote, well, it might be detrimental to their
political efforts.
Well, Earl, what a city of Milwaukee mayor, Kevin Lew Johnson, a young black man, David
Crowley County executive, young black man.
First, for both of those jobs of young African Americans in those positions, the budgets
looking good, things are okay.
I think as far as I can tell, how do you think that impacts the black community?
It doesn't matter that David Crowley and Kevin Lew Johnson are in those positions to you,
sir.
But this way, it does to, you know, old, old folkies like myself and others who never thought
they'd ever see that in the city of Milwaukee.
But the fact of the matter is there have been black mayors, black county executives, blacks
and leadership all over this nation and nothing really changed.
There have been black mayors going back 50 years, 60 years, and things did not change because
this is not the man who's in that position.
A mayor is, you know, is not God and he doesn't have unlimited power, you know, he's given
some resources and he can't unilaterally make decisions.
So it does make some like myself excited to see that after all these decades, there
finally is a person of color, but there are many cities across this nation that have
blacks in those positions and nothing never changed for the citizens.
So Earl, how do we make those changes?
What's the magic, what's the magic word?
What's the magic act?
How do we get all of them?
And we can give you like 90 seconds to solve all the world's problems, Earl.
Well, well, number one, a nation has to accept the fact that all of us are citizens of
the nation.
And what the Constitution says and what the Bill of Rights says, let's force, let's
make it a reality.
It has never been that and we know that.
And so we've got to push to make that real for all of the citizens.
Blacks in this nation are equal citizens by birthright, but yet somewhere along the line
that gets skewed and the fact that birthrights and that we are citizens of this nation get
thrown to the background.
And so until we're able to get people to accept the fact that we're all human beings, we're
all equal, we're all coming to the world the same way, breathing in the breath of air,
and we all give up the ghosts and we die the same way.
We don't die black, white, we die as human beings.
We don't come into the world black and white, we come into the world as human beings.
Until we can get people to see that, I don't see how many other things are going to change.
Earl, last 30 seconds, any big guests coming up this week on the Earl Ingram show?
I'm working on some things, man, you'll be surprised.
You know, I'm going to let you know, Crudy.
Come on, Earl, play it all, play it with us.
Big T's.
I got the governor coming on.
Well, I got some things in the works and I got to talk to you anyway about some advice
on some of those things, so don't take my advice, Earl.
Ask anyone.
Don't take Crudy's advice.
For Devils Advocates, the Devils Advocates, making radio great again.
Welcome back to the Devils.
Advocates radio show the happier Wednesday happy hour rolling through it.
Thank you to our good friend Earl Ingram Jr.
Find him each and every morning on the airwaves 8th at 10 a.m.
Traymond Milwaukee started WAUK on the civic media app or just tune in to the big 540,
the beast of the East 540 a.m.
Dom, I've got a couple of thoughts here as we lead back into the politics.
First and foremost, this one's going to catch you a little funny, I bet you haven't seen
this headline yet.
All right.
All right.
What is it?
Vote on Biden impeachment inquiry to shore up their authority.
Okay.
Well, don't they have the authority of Kevin McCarthy behind this action currently?
The former speaker said they were going to do it.
So they didn't really really going to do it?
Well, they would need a vote.
I think even Mike Huckby said that could be disastrous for the GOP, but you know, don't
take Huckby's advice.
Go for it boys and girls.
So the GOP are going to do the official vote to impeach on the floor to make an official
official not just give commerce committee the authority to call it, a impeachment inquiry
actually bring a vote to the floor.
Why do you think they didn't bring it to a vote last time, Dom?
Because they don't have the votes.
Maybe, maybe, maybe, before we get there, before we get there, we'll come back there.
Before we get there, Donald Trump.
The birthday made and soulmate.
You know, he has been put under enhanced monitoring under undisclosed after a undisclosed
$40 million cash transfer.
Then as of this moment, they're on double secret probation.
Enhance monitoring.
If the guy can slide 40 million around and cash, how closely is he being monitored
currently?
In the under 91 felt flonious indictments, I would say if you could move 40 million dollars
in cash around undisclosed immediately, you're a flight risk.
Put a monitor on him, like literally an ankle monitor, not just someone to monitor his
financial transactions.
I love the reporting from one of my favorite sources, the raw story, former President Donald
Trump has been placed under double secret probation.
I mean, enhanced monitoring after the Trump organization monitor Barbara James identified
40 million dollars in undisclosed cash transfers.
This was initially reported by law 360's Frank Runyon today.
Jones alerted Judge Arthur Ingeron, who was overseeing Trump's civil fraud trial in
New York.
The materiality, it's quote, down from, from someone, not me, the materiality threshold
requires that defendants provide notice when entities within the trust make transfers
outside the trust with an aggregate value and excess of $5 million, she wrote, adding
that we've observed three cash transfers exceeding $5 million each, totaling approximately
$40 million, including $29 million to Donald J. Trump, which I have confirmed was used
for tax purposes.
I thought only the suckers paid taxes, Trump, $29 million in tax bills.
Another $5.5 million transfers, transfer, Jones wrote, was used to pay the sexual assault
judgment, one against Trump by advice columnist E. Jean Carroll earlier this year.
And that number, that one's going up, Tom, did you see he's out publicly trash talking
to her again?
Is he trying to triple down on the award?
I mean, I don't know what the motivation is.
I mean, you can't stop himself, but as long as he's got the money, he's going to have
to continue to pay if he continues to sue him over and over and over again for the same
thing.
What's the definition of insanity, Mike?
Double secret probation doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different
results.
Well, that's why the GOP is doing a different over in the house now, um, oh, yeah, new sheriff
in town.
Well, not so much in town this weekend, because he's going to speak to some sort of crazy
white nationalist evangelical group talking about speaker, Mike Johnson, but here is the
latest from the hill, GOP eyes vote on Biden impeachment inquiry to shore up authority.
That's what they've been lacking for up till now, not authority.
House Republicans are weighing whether to shore up their impeachment inquiry by taking
a formal vote on the matter with majority whip Tom Emmer mentioned as a possible speaker
candidate.
What need them telling members in a closed or meeting Wednesday, they could vote in coming
weeks on a move that could bolster the investigation's legal standing.
You mean from zero to something more than zero?
Because right now you've got the proposition.
You got no authority, GOP members told the Hill that Emmer cited pushback from the White
House and making his case for the vote.
You mean like the White House saying, you go pound sand, you're going to impeach me.
You're going to subpoena me at least have the authority to take the vote.
Make a public vote prove you got the votes because down blast time through.
If they'd had the votes, they'd have voted for the impeachment inquiry.
Would they have not?
They would have former speaker Kevin McCarthy kicked off the impeachment process without
a house vote.
An action he had criticized when then speaker Nancy Pelosi similarly delayed taking a formal
vote to start impeachment process against then president Trump in a recent letter.
The White House blasted the GOP for moving ahead on the inquiry without a vote securing
the backing from members repeatedly referring to the impeachment inquiry in quotes.
That's funny.
And writing that it is lacking constitutional legitimacy, GOP members said Emmer viewed
taking a vote as one way to respond to the White House criticism, particularly as the
House GOP ramps up complaints that it has not yet received all the information from
the administration that it has asked for.
Sounds like the White House sent over a response to Comer and Jordan about the impeachment
inquiry.
The former speaker McCarthy announced saying that unless it's voted on by the whole house
that they didn't consider it that it was a valid impeachment inquiry, once GOP lawmakers
told the Hill.
I could have told the Hill that, Tom.
This would be the House voting to just simply do what we thought we had done with speaker
McCarthy's declaration.
No, what?
Because McCarthy declared it.
You think that's all you need to do?
You can't even go to a Catholic bingo night.
You can declare bingo, but they still come out and verify.
They don't just give you that cash.
And this is amongst the Catholics from the other source in the room.
So they are taking temperature on a formal vote on an inquiry.
Vote comes as the impeachment inquiry reaches a more difficult phase as lawmakers work to
get interviews with high profile targets, including Hunter Biden, who offered to testify publicly
in a public setting, rather than the closed door deposition, GOP lawmakers have compelled.
He said that a formal vote might strengthen the legal standing of the House, another GOP
lawmaker told the Hill.
He was just observing that there has been a legal argument made in the past that a formal
vote unlocked some additional legal powers of the subpoena and compelling information that
maybe demean and inquiry does not.
Yeah, you think?
That was more or less a stance that White House took on an over 17th letter to the House
Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan, GYM Jordan, and House Oversight account about Chair James
Colmer.
So yeah, they're going to really, really do it now, really, really, really do it now.
We have some sound.
I believe Nate, thank you, sir, for doing the hard work, make a mic while he is going
to foul the facts.
Don't worry, the gang's on it.
Let's play cut one if you would please.
Chairman, have issued a few dozen subpoenas.
And we expect that those who to be complied with in an expeditious manner.
We're not prejudging this.
We will follow the facts wherever they leave.
Yeah, you know, they're going to respond like what, like Jim Jordan responded to his subpoena,
right?
Ignore what you get.
Don't roll it.
One more from Johnson on the Biden impeachment cut to a place.
While we take no pleasure in the proceedings here, we have a responsibility to do it.
Do yes, much, a lot, much responsibility from the mega mic.
George Santos also, let's throw this one out there.
I would, I would have heard this one.
Yeah, I didn't think he was going to survive the week, man.
What there's two expulsion votes scheduled on this guy this week.
And he says, I've done the math and I'm not going to survive.
I will not resign.
Nate, let's hear what George Santos said to say cut for.
I ask that all my colleagues in the house consider and understand what this means for the future.
And to set the record straight and put this in the record, I will not be resigning.
You got to convict me first.
You got to drag me out of here.
Oh, it's about due process.
Well, maybe, maybe not.
Let's hear cut five.
In history, five members of Congress have been expelled.
All five had suffered convictions in a court.
All five had due process.
Yeah, well, it's kind of a privilege to serve in the house.
Mr. Santos, this isn't the court of law.
They don't like it.
They can toss your ass.
Do a full ethics inquiry.
In fact, they found more criminal acts on George Santos's part than he had been previously
charged with federally.
So the federallys are charging Santos with mini crimes.
And the ethics committee said, no, wait, there's more there's more.
So you know, in due process, schmoo process, you went through a full ethics committee report.
They found you so guilty, so guilty, so guilty.
I know he's so guilty.
A couple more from Santos cuts six, please.
Are we to now assume that one is no longer innocent until proven guilty?
And they are in fact guilty until proven innocent?
Or are we now to simply assume that because somebody doesn't like you, they get to throw
you out of your job?
He would actually take a lot of people not liking you.
Two thirds, right?
Two thirds for an expulsion vote of a congressperson.
Let's see, supermajority of your colleagues that would not like you, sir.
And why don't they like him?
All that's right because he's a fraudster to the nth degree, a last cut from the soon
to be perhaps thrown out of Congress, Santos cuts seven.
The process in which the ethics committee engaged was incomplete, irresponsible and littered
with hyperbole and littered with biased opinions.
The facts.
The facts were the damning part, though.
You know what I mean?
The rest could also be true, but the facts are what killed you.
Why not address these specific allegations, Mr. Santos?
You got your time.
You know, you know, why is that?
Because of course, anything he says on the floor of the house.
Well, he's also indicted, man, they can use that against him.
So don't look at what the feds are doing.
Don't look at what, no, no, no, I'm not going to talk in circles about, I haven't been
convicted yet.
Why would you possibly kick me out?
Mike Johnson, Megan Mike, while he, do they, wait, before you, don't they need Santos's
impeachment vote before they expel, expel him from the body?
I mean, it's, you know, at least a little dignity and the way out the door.
He can vote to impeach another guy as he's being expelled.
That would, you know, really put a nice cherry on top, wouldn't it?
That, that, that would.
I mean, if my, Megan Mike can get his way, that's what he would do.
What if they're one vote short and they needed Santos?
Exactly.
Exactly.
I'll let's see what Megan Mike had to say on this very topic, cut number nine.
There are people who say, you have to uphold the rule of law and allow for someone to be
convicted in a criminal court before this, this, this, this, we say, we did that.
We did that.
Exactly on someone.
That's been the precedent so far.
There are others who say, well, upholding the rule of law requires us to take this step
now because some of the things that he's alleged to have done, the House Ethics Committee
having done their job or infractions against the House itself against humanity itself.
But Megan Mike, he's got some reservations.
I mean, I don't blame you.
I mean, you're propping up Donald Trump.
Why not George Santos?
Well, Santos helped prop up Megan Mike.
All right.
Cut time, please, Nate.
I personally have real reservations about doing this.
I'm concerned about a precedent that maybe set for that.
For expelling criminal members who are under indictment and after Ethics Committee did
bipartisan investigation found more evidence of crimes, not just as was alleged, but also
crimes against the Congress itself.
I can see why you, you'd feel torn on this as the Megan Mike.
I was for a couple more in here.
Cut 11, please, Nate.
Oh, we'll have to wait until after the break for those.
Oh, man.
All right.
Megan Mike, he has more to say on the possible expulsion of congressman, George Santos.
I mean, if he is not, if Santos is not the embodiment of what the mega has become, I mean,
if he is that, then why would you possibly want him out?
So we are the doubles advocate to come back, to wrap up some of this, Megan Mike Johnson
to take your calls at 844-967-2789.
Occupy didn't start on Wall Street.
It started on our street, the doubles advocate.
What about you, the doubles advocate to radio show our less?
I mean, no, the day we got something to say, hit us up right now, 844-967-2789 and stick
around on the maybe dawn show coming up next.
Down my spoke prematurely, I called Donald Trump your soulmate.
And that was a rush to judgment because I've now, now identified your true soulmate.
It's a lawn musk.
Did you see the latest?
Today, a lawn musk appeared at the New York Times dealbook summit.
And the SpaceX and Tesla CEO, a lawn musk, had some harsh words for advertisers who are
fleeing the platform acts.
Go half yourself.
And I would say that makes him a man, kind of like you, your soulmates.
That guy.
I see a similarity here.
Do you know?
I do have.
I do have some of that in me.
That is true.
I can't deny that.
Musk made the comment while being interviewed by Andrew Ross Sorkin speaking about the
current advertiser boycott.
What's this advertising boycott it's going to do is it's going to kill the company musk
side.
Oh, that'd be a shame.
Take your $44 billion and flush it down the toilet.
Oh, I'd be sad.
You know, I'm not a big fan of the Twitter or the X.
And the whole world will know that those advertisers killed the company.
Talk about projection.
Nothing, nothing to do with your, I don't know, management style, nothing to do with
the decisions you made on a corporate basis on what to allow and how to do things.
That's all.
Oh, that's all right.
But allowing and what engaging in anti-Semitic tropes, I mean, you know, maybe, maybe there
should be some self-reflection, Mr. Musk.
Well, Dom, in response to Disney CEO Bob Eiger, who earlier discussed Disney pulling
advertiser advertising from the platform, that means they took their money back.
Musk didn't hold back.
Don't advertise.
If someone's going to try and blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money,
oh, after yourself must said, adding go after yourself.
Is that clear?
Hey, Bob, if you're in the audience, that's how I feel.
Don't advertise.
Oh, wow.
That's going to win over hearts and minds.
I'm going to make friends that influence people by Elon Musk.
You know, maybe he's not so good at this leadership thing.
Oh, you think?
I'm not clear.
I had seen it reported widely, or at least a couple places I'd read.
This guy had been enabled.
You know, he was always sort of this reactionary jerk.
And you know, because he's rich, he had these people around him that just kept them within
the guardrails in some way, shape or form, or at least kept it from the public's view.
But now that he owns the ex, the Twitter platform time, his fall from grace has been enormous.
This guy has racked a viable $45 billion platform in what about a year?
I mean, it took Trump four years to recognition.
Still working on it.
844-967-2789.
Well, the leadership of Busbee being questioned, but Megan Mike Johnson, well, again, they are
debating whether or not to expel George Soros.
Johnson told Republicans to vote their conscience.
What?
Let's hear a couple more from the Megan Mike, the speaker of the house.
If you would please, Nate, number 11.
I personally have real reservations about doing this.
I'm concerned about a precedent that maybe set for that.
So everybody's working through that, and we'll see how they vote tomorrow.
We'll see.
They're going to vote to expel it.
We'll see.
And the last, Megan Mike, speaker Johnson, cut 12.
There are people of good faith who make an argument, both pro and con, for the expulsion
resolution for Santos.
The only person arguing against his Santos.
Santos?
No, no, don't expel me, because you don't like me.
A dividend might do process, and this ethics committee, it was biased and full of holes,
and those people anyway.
George Santos.
I guess tomorrow we'll find out.
We'll see.
844-967-2789.
The eagerly anticipated call from CJ.
How you doing, CJ?
Hi, CJ.
Hi, CJ.
Hi, gentlemen.
Thanks for taking my call.
Yeah, I get the hesitation, not because it isn't certainly justifiable for this guy.
But the precedent set is, you know, once you go down this road, because they are in
a process of, you know, he's going to be charged criminally.
He's been charged.
This is not an abuse, though, CJ, they're convinced.
This is not an abuse, though.
Is it, CJ?
I mean, it's not like they're going to say, well, I don't like that, Jamie Raskin.
Let's see if we can scrounge up 67% of the votes, because, of course, a wrongly accused,
or rightly accused person from the other party is not necessarily going to get the votes
necessary.
The two thirds margin, CJ, is why I believe in this process.
This is not an abuse of the process.
If it fails, then they'll have to convict them before he's expelled.
But if the will is there today, based on the preponderance of overwhelming evidence presented
in the ethics report, don't we want to say a side of there?
Would you with me on throwing the bombs out, CJ?
He's a bum.
Throw his ass out.
Well, you know, I don't think the Republicans are going to be cheering the way the Democrats
did for Adam Schiff for lying to the country for two and a half years.
Oh, I'm going to cut you off, man.
You are so full of Malarkey someday, CJ, Adam Schiff, lying to the country.
That is a figmentation of the Fox News network, dude.
He has supported pretty much every damn thing he said through the Mueller report, through
the January 6th report.
I mean, dude, there's evidence supporting everything Adam Schiff said.
Let's let's let's remind him for telling the truth is was a ridiculous action of Congress.
You want to talk about unprecedented act as stupidity, CJ?
You brought it up, Adam Schiff in this treatment from a hostile Republican Congress.
And Fox News, uh, what was going what's simply liable for lying about the dominion for
it to the tune of 800 plus million dollars, and I believe Murdoch, uh, testified today
in the smartmatic case.
So again, let's not forget Fox News lies to its viewers.
But you can keep on believing them.
Stick around the man.
What's the definition of insanity doing the same thing over and over again, expecting
different results.
We keep taking CJ's calls.
I know what the result will always be.
Well, thanks for the call, CJ.
The Maggie Don show is next.
If she says it, I believe it.
And I mean that.
And then the empowered caregiver featuring Liza Helen brand and my son's going to be on
that show tonight.
Kaden Kruz.
So shout out to Kaden.
Betty did a great job to it in tonight at 7 o'clock.
Keep it locked.
Civic media.
Thank you.
James Cossie.
And Earl.
