[00:01:46] And we keep you up to date on all kinds of interesting things.
[00:01:50] One of them I just released says, you know, fool me once, shame on you.
[00:01:54] Fool me twice, shame on me.
[00:01:56] Check that out, libertyroundtable.com.
[00:01:59] Without further ado, Dr. Bradley, welcome, sir.
[00:02:02] Well, good morning to all.
[00:02:04] I hope everyone's morning's a little less frosty than it is here.
[00:02:08] We don't have a bunch of new snow.
[00:02:10] But, man, there's some cold that's crept in and seems to be creeping through every entry position into a house.
[00:02:19] Or if you've got a jacket on that's not zipped right up, you're going to feel a little frosty than snowman today.
[00:02:27] Better than global warming everywhere, I'll tell you that right now.
[00:02:30] They claim the fires are part global warming, but they're out in the weeds.
[00:02:33] We'll get to that as the broadcast unfolds.
[00:02:35] But first, you know, there's always so much to talk about.
[00:02:38] There's never enough time.
[00:02:39] There's too many topics.
[00:02:40] It's a target-rich environment.
[00:02:41] We get all that.
[00:02:42] But out of your webinar last night, what kind of percolated to the top, sir?
[00:02:48] Well, the idea of Trump kind of biting off more than he can chew, making Canada the 51st state,
[00:02:55] the tariff issues that are chasing and what the tit for tat will be on that thing.
[00:03:01] Surely there will be responses.
[00:03:03] We talked a little more detail about Greenland and why it's a target and the Panama Canal and more depth, perhaps, than certainly we'd have time in this program.
[00:03:15] But the offshore banning by Biden in his 11th hour for the oil and gas stuff.
[00:03:23] And the drill, baby drill by Donald contrasting and all that kind of stuff.
[00:03:28] And, yeah, there's a lot of topics to talk about.
[00:03:30] What's on my mind today specifically, by the way, is the Los Angeles fire discussion for several reasons.
[00:03:39] First of all, there's an article in WND.com written by Bob Unruh.
[00:03:44] And the headline says this, Los Angeles officials knew they were unprepared to defend their city from wildfires.
[00:03:53] L.A. Fire Chief Kristen Crowley warned the mayor, Karen Bass, last month, so a month plus ago,
[00:04:04] that the 17 plus million dollars that she cut from the, quote, department's budget severely limited the department's ability or capacity to prepare for,
[00:04:17] train for, and respond to large scale emergencies, including wildfires.
[00:04:25] That was literally told to the mayor.
[00:04:27] The mayor didn't care, cut the budget.
[00:04:29] Now this disaster.
[00:04:30] They knew it was a problem and flat out ignored it.
[00:04:34] It gets worse.
[00:04:36] Because they then mistakenly sent an evacuation alert to all of L.A. County.
[00:04:44] It was a bogus alert.
[00:04:45] Caused confusion for residents up to 20 minutes until they sent a clarifying reality.
[00:04:53] Hey, this was an error.
[00:04:54] We didn't mean to send it to everybody.
[00:04:55] It's not true.
[00:04:56] So that was a disaster.
[00:04:58] They claimed that it was a glitch.
[00:05:00] And then they want to think AI is going to save us, huh?
[00:05:02] Good luck.
[00:05:03] Anyway, then World Net Daily also released another story.
[00:05:09] It's just World Net Daily staff.
[00:05:12] But the headline says, watch, people were spotted throwing gasoline to fuel the fires in California.
[00:05:22] California.
[00:05:23] They're on video tossing containers toward the flames.
[00:05:27] WND.com.
[00:05:28] There's a video up there about that.
[00:05:30] I just want to say, what on earth is happening?
[00:05:33] They say fires are now consuming or moving faster than they used to.
[00:05:39] Well, yeah, when you throw gas on it, what do you expect?
[00:05:41] Right.
[00:05:42] And then all I'm telling you is you look at this thing.
[00:05:45] They knew ahead of time it happened anyway.
[00:05:46] It seems like we got a microcosm in California of what happened to their hurricanes in the southeast where they're just absolutely derelict in their duty.
[00:05:55] They don't care.
[00:05:56] They spend money on all kinds of bogus issues, DEI, on illegals, on whatever weird transgender bender race, whatever.
[00:06:07] And they ignore their primary functions.
[00:06:11] And we're seeing this on a large scale.
[00:06:14] Now they're blaming Trump for a lot of this kind of stuff, even though he had nothing to do with it, instead of Newsom.
[00:06:19] I mean, they've lost their marbles.
[00:06:20] But we see escalation here that needs investigation, doctor.
[00:06:25] Well, there are so many aspects of this.
[00:06:28] You know, if something happens politically, it was planned.
[00:06:32] I mean, it's like you can't screw up so many divergent kind of things that came together in this perfect storm that's turning out so holaciously.
[00:06:44] I mean, hellaciously, it's terrible.
[00:06:46] But you're right.
[00:06:47] I mean, they cut the fire budget by $17.5 billion.
[00:06:51] I mean, billion, million dollars.
[00:06:53] They increased the police department by like $126 million.
[00:06:58] They've been focused on homelessness.
[00:07:00] Now, that may be part of the problem.
[00:07:03] The female fire chief in L.A. I think is qualified for an examination, at least, of a DEI hire, diversity, equity, and inclusion.
[00:07:18] And the mayor certainly, I mean, she has a history of being involved in Cuba's, what shall we say, spying activities that was embedded in the United States back in the late 1960s.
[00:07:34] And this thing is, well, last night on the webinar, this came up, and I said, you know what?
[00:07:40] But in a very real sense, California is a dumpster fire.
[00:07:45] And it's a literal fire right now.
[00:07:49] We have, in this Pacific Palisades thing, some of the most expensive real estate in the nation is going up in smoke.
[00:07:56] I mean, I think I read that the median price of a home there was like $3.2 million.
[00:08:04] Yeah, it's quite brutal, the average home in America, at least.
[00:08:08] Yeah, you look at it.
[00:08:09] This is a multibillion-dollar thing.
[00:08:12] On top of that, because of California Newsom's incompetence decisions and so on to not do mitigation in advance for, you know, being sure that, you know,
[00:08:25] when you have a wildland and an urban interface, there's got to be a mitigation process in there to make sure that the possibility of a wildland fire doesn't encroach into the urban area.
[00:08:39] And all of that has been completely ignored.
[00:08:41] And because of that, almost all of the big insurance companies in these high-risk areas have said, we're not going to do fire insurance anymore.
[00:08:52] And so tons of these people, probably beginning, well, it started about four years ago, but at least last summer, for many of these people, they lost their fire insurance.
[00:09:03] Okay, so they're standing there naked in the flames, and there's nothing going on in terms of any recovery for it.
[00:09:11] But the problem is that California has prohibited the insurance companies from being able to set fire insurance based upon the real risks.
[00:09:22] And so because of their government policies...
[00:09:25] In other words, if you could, you could get fire insurance.
[00:09:27] It would just be doggone expensive.
[00:09:29] But, hey, California's rules and guidelines and laws prevent them from even offering it.
[00:09:34] So they're simply saying, I can't offer it at the prices mandated by government.
[00:09:39] Therefore, I'm just backing out.
[00:09:41] Well, and here's the deal.
[00:09:42] California does have a California government-issued, kind of like Obamacare policy for fire, that you can get.
[00:09:51] But the problem is the insurance companies are just saying it's, you know, the risk is too high.
[00:09:59] We can't cover our losses.
[00:10:01] We cannot cover our losses.
[00:10:02] And so consequently, we're withdrawing.
[00:10:04] And so these people that have been caught in this conundrum, look what this is going to do.
[00:10:10] Sam, you've been in the housing business.
[00:10:12] If you can't get fire insurance, what is the chance of you getting a mortgage?
[00:10:16] Slim and none.
[00:10:16] Zero.
[00:10:17] Okay, so here's the deal.
[00:10:21] They're creating a perfect storm.
[00:10:23] Every loan, by the way, has a clause that you must be insured.
[00:10:25] And if you don't get insurance, they'll get it for you.
[00:10:28] Exactly.
[00:10:29] And if you can't get it at a price that's reasonable, they won't get it.
[00:10:32] So here we go.
[00:10:34] Meltdown on the mortgage business.
[00:10:36] That is going to cause a crash.
[00:10:38] Go ahead and skip the break.
[00:10:39] There's a meltdown in the mortgage business.
[00:10:41] There's a meltdown in the insurance business over this.
[00:10:43] There's a meltdown in all kinds of things.
[00:10:45] There's eroded trust in government.
[00:10:47] I mean, this is just – but I've mentioned this on the program over the last probably decade or so.
[00:10:51] We've been on the radio for three decades, people.
[00:10:53] So we've been at this for a long time.
[00:10:55] But the last decade or so, I guess I should say since 2008, so more like the last 15 years,
[00:11:00] I have mentioned that their goal is to destroy every segment of our society and just steamroll it one by one.
[00:11:06] Mortgages are a big key.
[00:11:08] Food are a big key.
[00:11:10] Insurance are a big key.
[00:11:11] And they're going through and they're wrecking every sector of society one at a time.
[00:11:17] You take the hurricanes in the southeast and the tornadoes, and then you take some of the fires in the west.
[00:11:25] Hey, insurance companies can't insure anybody.
[00:11:27] And then you take that pie and make it super small of what they can insure because you've got to make sure everybody's out of a flood zone and everything else too, right?
[00:11:34] When you do that, then, hey, costs go up for everybody because they've got a smaller pool to draw on that don't require assistance.
[00:11:40] And so this is going to devastate this industry.
[00:11:44] And when I see videos of people throwing gas on the fire, when I see that they knew ahead of time and the fire chief warned them,
[00:11:51] hey, we cannot function at this level and everything else, then this evacuation alert got sent out.
[00:11:57] Bogus.
[00:11:57] They're trying to engender fear.
[00:11:59] They're destroying and steamrolling every industry one at a time.
[00:12:03] They did this to the medical industry with COVID con, with the Fauci facade, with the, okay, it's a disaster.
[00:12:11] But they're doing it to every industry, one by one by one.
[00:12:15] And their goal eventually is to wreck all industries and in the ashes have us beg for security.
[00:12:22] We'll give up liberty for security, wind up with neither.
[00:12:24] And what's going to happen at the end of the day is they're going to move us into a global currency.
[00:12:28] And I see Donald Trump, which we can get into this right now, promoting globalism under the banner of nationalism.
[00:12:34] That's the headline that I'd like to bring to bear for this as Trump gets ready to take office.
[00:12:39] This is disaster.
[00:12:40] I see a lot of blaming.
[00:12:42] I see a lot of finger pointing.
[00:12:44] But there's not solutions.
[00:12:46] We've got a systemic problem in America where we literally want DEI, we literally want transgender and race and all these other perverted whatever to be at the top of the list.
[00:12:57] And anything to do with fundamental proper role of government is at the bottom of the list.
[00:13:00] And if guys like me complain about it, they're like domestic terrorists.
[00:13:04] And that narrative is not going away, not even under Trump or Musk that I can see, Dr. Bradley.
[00:13:10] Well, let's just take an example on this.
[00:13:13] There's one of many that could be cited.
[00:13:16] And, you know, Sam, you've been kicking around this, you know, political nonsense long enough and interestingly enough that there's been a long movement to do some kind of North American regional arrangement.
[00:13:30] Under the United Nations.
[00:13:31] Go back.
[00:13:32] We could we could review that.
[00:13:33] Yeah.
[00:13:33] Back in the Bush days, they called it the North American Union to compete with the European Union, et cetera, et cetera.
[00:13:40] Right.
[00:13:40] And that all failed, fell apart, got a lot of backlash and everything else.
[00:13:44] It kind of fell out of favor.
[00:13:45] But then when NAFTA got converted to the what the USMCA or whatever that thing is.
[00:13:50] Yeah.
[00:13:51] Under Trump.
[00:13:51] Then that got a little bit updated under Trump.
[00:13:55] And now Trump's taking it to the next level as we name it, the Gulf of America.
[00:13:59] America.
[00:14:00] As we go ahead and decide we're going to take over Canada.
[00:14:03] OK.
[00:14:03] In the name of nationalism, we're moving towards globalism.
[00:14:06] Well, that's the thing that that here we have someone that's at the very least got imperialistic perspectives on things.
[00:14:14] Let's build the empire.
[00:14:15] We don't have a manifest destiny for this.
[00:14:18] We don't have a world environment.
[00:14:20] And certainly the president is overstepping, you know, Article 2 of the Constitution.
[00:14:25] But but the fact of the matter is that people are going, right, we ought to pick up those Canadians.
[00:14:30] Those turkeys have been, you know, Trudeau has been a wonderful reason for Canada to fail.
[00:14:35] But then you got to put in Greenland.
[00:14:38] I mean, holy cow.
[00:14:39] And I could explain why there's an interest there.
[00:14:42] And then we talk about the Panama Canal.
[00:14:44] And so there appears to be an imperialistic kind of view.
[00:14:48] And, yes, we've gone down to the Panama Canal.
[00:14:50] We've shot people down there in the relative near past when Papa Bush went down there after Noriega.
[00:14:58] One of his cronies was a CIA contact.
[00:15:00] That's right.
[00:15:01] We can talk about that.
[00:15:02] So my question, I already had this headline written ahead of the show today.
[00:15:05] Does Trump have an imperialism problem?
[00:15:08] And I think to some degree you could say that.
[00:15:10] Now, on the other hand, you could say, well, he's trying to defend the United States.
[00:15:13] We're trying to, you know, deal with national security issues that have gone south under those who haven't cared for America first.
[00:15:19] And you could say that.
[00:15:20] But at what point do we cross the line?
[00:15:23] Right now, you know, buying Greenland might be great, but we don't have any money, doctor, first of all.
[00:15:28] Well, yeah, there's tons of problems and challenges.
[00:15:31] You don't normally just buy countries.
[00:15:34] You know, they're not like you go down to Walmart and they're on the shelf.
[00:15:36] But there's a lot of things in terms of their autonomous status with Denmark.
[00:15:43] And Denmark has said they're not on the market.
[00:15:46] The prime minister of Greenland has said that.
[00:15:51] There are strategic metals and precious, you know, kinds of natural resources that can be used for military there.
[00:16:02] There is kind of not really truly a blind spot in terms of watching for any incomings.
[00:16:11] But it is kind of more in a blind spot area.
[00:16:14] We've got the dew line over on the west of that in Canada and Alaska, Aleutian Chain and everything.
[00:16:21] But these kind of things.
[00:16:23] Trump, if he just looked at what was domestically on his plate right now.
[00:16:31] He's already got way more than he can handle even at that.
[00:16:33] Yeah, he's overpromised.
[00:16:35] He's not going to be able to deliver it.
[00:16:36] And there's a scenario we can play out sometime if you want to about what I perceive will happen with his overpromising under delivering.
[00:16:44] Well, we'll get to that because Elon Musk spoke out, too, that relates directly to that point that you're making.
[00:16:49] So we'll get to that in a minute.
[00:16:51] But the wildfires, I believe, are a problem.
[00:16:54] And I believe we need to look into this.
[00:16:55] When you mistakenly send a message to your whole county and you're telling me that AI and computers are at a pinnacle, they can run the whole world, they can drive cars, they can do everything, you're about to be displaced from your job because computers got it.
[00:17:08] And then they make a simple mistake in L.A. and they text to everybody when they shouldn't have.
[00:17:12] Everybody's in a panic for over 20 minutes.
[00:17:15] Anyway, then people are spotted throwing gasoline on the fire.
[00:17:17] We've got to investigate this thing.
[00:17:19] When they knew ahead of time about it and everything else, you wonder if there's collusion or involvement in certain ways by whom.
[00:17:24] Were terrorists involved with knowing full well this was the case?
[00:17:28] I don't know.
[00:17:29] But I'm just telling you, it's very, very strange.
[00:17:31] And it's going to bring the economic reality to the brink for many, many, many, many markets.
[00:17:38] I mean, it's a disaster.
[00:17:39] Well, so does Trump have an imperialism problem?
[00:17:42] It's a fair question to ask.
[00:17:43] But now at Carter's funeral, I find this kind of interesting.
[00:17:46] Carter's funeral, five presidents together.
[00:17:50] Isn't that a serious security nightmare, doctor?
[00:17:55] I mean, it all went okay.
[00:17:55] I'm glad.
[00:17:56] Don't get me wrong.
[00:17:57] But I'm just saying to me, I don't know why you'd even do that at this current situation.
[00:18:03] Well, in a way, it probably simplified a lot of things.
[00:18:08] Instead of having five different former presidents in five different states, they gathered them in one little room and held them there with the, you know, under the watchful eye of whomever was their keepers.
[00:18:19] And so, in a way, but you're right.
[00:18:22] Here we put them in a, you know, in the national.
[00:18:25] I mean, you got one dead and then five alive.
[00:18:27] And you put them all together, six of them.
[00:18:29] I mean, somebody could take out all of them at once.
[00:18:32] Now, the only thing I said is this.
[00:18:33] You know, Trump is in dangerous territory when he's alone.
[00:18:36] But when he's with all kinds of other globalist leaders, he's probably protected because how could they take him out but save the rest?
[00:18:42] And so when he's with the globalists, he's probably safe.
[00:18:44] Speaking of that, he was very chummy with Barack.
[00:18:48] Now people are saying, are Trump and Obama BFF?
[00:18:52] It's just, you know, I look at the history that Bill and Hillary Clinton have with Trump and their shared political interests and their donations.
[00:19:05] And their, I don't know, trips maybe to Epstein's Island.
[00:19:10] I mean, you know, there's a lot of things out there that you have to say, huh?
[00:19:13] You should leave Jeff out of this.
[00:19:14] Focus on Hillary, okay?
[00:19:16] That's the thing is Jeff has been left out of everything.
[00:19:20] They got his madam.
[00:19:22] They got his madam and put her in jail.
[00:19:24] But can we find any other answers for all of his other attendees?
[00:19:29] No, we're not going to pursue that because there's, you know, people that will be a little upset if you do.
[00:19:34] So that's not happening.
[00:19:35] But I find it fascinating that first off.
[00:19:38] Then I also find it fascinating the Supreme Court, Justice, two of them, Barrett and Roberts, go against Trump.
[00:19:47] They side with the liberals to deny censoring delay in Trump hush money case.
[00:19:53] So he's going to be sentenced.
[00:19:55] They say it starts at 930, so we should have answers here soon.
[00:19:57] 930 Eastern, that is.
[00:19:59] So it's almost been an hour.
[00:20:00] Are we going to get answers quick on that?
[00:20:01] You know, we'll see.
[00:20:02] They want to make Trump a felon before he takes office.
[00:20:04] They want that claim so bad they can taste it.
[00:20:07] The problem that I have with this is there was no single charge that convicted Trump.
[00:20:12] What I find fascinating is they claim there's different counts.
[00:20:15] And I've never seen in a case before where, let's say me and Dr. Bradley are jurors.
[00:20:19] I have two counts that I think he's guilty of.
[00:20:21] And Dr. Bradley has two other counts, but they're not the same counts at all.
[00:20:25] So across the board, as long as we can get enough agreement that there's a problem here.
[00:20:30] But even if we don't agree on the same, quote, counts or charges, it's going to count anyway, says the judge.
[00:20:35] This is criminal activity.
[00:20:36] That's not due process at all, doctor.
[00:20:38] No, this violates the entire Americanist jurisprudence philosophy.
[00:20:43] But the whole case is smelled from the beginning.
[00:20:46] I mean, this is the idea that you can take what might have been at one point a misdemeanor and make it a felony by say by without any connection that you can prove or even was brought forth that it was done to to create another crime.
[00:21:04] You make that misdemeanor a felony.
[00:21:07] And then you have this mix and match juror kind of thing.
[00:21:11] You have the fact that Bill Clinton, what did he pay Paula Jones, $850,000, something like that.
[00:21:21] I mean, there's no scandal there.
[00:21:23] I mean, some of these other things with some of these other politicians.
[00:21:27] But there was just a whole bunch of cobbled together kinds of things that seemed to be collusion between the different court systems and the federal system and everything like that.
[00:21:40] And then the idea that they're going to get him labeled an absolute convicted and sentenced felon.
[00:21:49] What the what merchant has planned to do?
[00:21:52] And again, we haven't heard the word today at this point.
[00:21:55] But his intention, he said, was to sentence Trump to a conditional discharge, which means that he will not receive any prison time.
[00:22:03] There's basically saying, OK, you can go home, do whatever you want to do.
[00:22:06] But it does hang the felony charge on his head as a convicted and sentenced felon.
[00:22:15] The conditional discharge means there's no, you know, nothing, you know, like he doesn't know any prison time.
[00:22:24] He doesn't end up going down and getting mug shot and walk the perp walk and all this kind of stuff.
[00:22:29] They're going to do this via distant.
[00:22:32] He's going to be sitting Mar-a-Lago or wherever.
[00:22:35] And he'll watch the travesty on the show on the TV screen.
[00:22:41] But but the fact of the matter is, it does hang the felony thing.
[00:22:46] The idea of being able to appeal something until it's it's really, truly adjudicated and gets examined.
[00:22:53] And look at the the way the jury was instructed, for example, and all of the all of the questionable activities that were surrounding this thing.
[00:23:04] It never got through all of the process.
[00:23:06] They just by golly, we're going to hang this on him.
[00:23:09] And you don't need to get all the process.
[00:23:11] We're just going to do it.
[00:23:12] And this is the problem.
[00:23:12] The American people are trying to say we don't want that.
[00:23:14] We don't believe in it.
[00:23:15] So we elect Donald Trump as president and reject their whole agenda.
[00:23:18] It doesn't change the fact that they're just going for broke.
[00:23:21] And the problem in our system is, hey, how can they put these bogus charges up against the Donald and proceed with them?
[00:23:28] But yet no one can stop them, arrest them, whatever.
[00:23:32] So Trump will just go into office, I guess, as a as a felon with no charges, no jail time, no consequences.
[00:23:37] But yet that, you know, label on his chest.
[00:23:41] What is that like?
[00:23:42] The scarlet letter.
[00:23:43] Just put a scarlet letter on the Donald and let him swear in.
[00:23:46] Yeah, I.
[00:23:48] There's a you know, there's circumstances where this thing would probably, you know, clear up some problem very quickly.
[00:23:56] But but when you're a felon and you're the president and you've been convicted and sentenced, it's a pretty heavy millstone to hang about their neck.
[00:24:05] So well, today's modern reality.
[00:24:08] And I don't know how I feel about this either.
[00:24:10] But on one hand, you don't want it to have any reality because it was unfair and it was wrongfully done.
[00:24:15] And at the same time, though, might this help Donald?
[00:24:18] I mean, is this a label that it can go on in infamy that he's like, hey, he's a rock star forever because of it?
[00:24:23] That alone speaks to the problems in the greatest country on the face of the earth.
[00:24:30] Right.
[00:24:31] Being a felon is a is a kind of a badge of honor.
[00:24:34] I'm just saying.
[00:24:36] What a disgrace.
[00:24:38] All right.
[00:24:38] Hang tight, Dr. Bradley.
[00:24:39] Yours truly back in seconds.

[00:25:03] I'm Jason Walker.
[00:25:04] If you had any doubts about it being winter, well, think again.
[00:25:08] Temperatures this morning.
[00:25:09] International falls 14 degrees below zero.
[00:25:12] Chicago is a little warmer.
[00:25:13] Temperatures are only in the lower teens.
[00:25:15] Minneapolis, temperatures are right around zero.
[00:25:17] So very cold air across parts of the Dakotas, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa.
[00:25:22] Pretty typical temperatures for a very cold air mass at the moment.
[00:25:26] Not a lot of records.
[00:25:27] Bob Orovac, lead forecaster with the National Weather Service.
[00:25:30] A lot of cold air in place across the country.
[00:25:32] It's really setting up the potential for a pretty, very impactful storm.
[00:25:36] Anywhere from the plains into the lower Missouri Valley, Mississippi Valley, Ohio Valley, and eventually into the east United States over the next several days.
[00:25:44] And late today, parts of eastern Kansas and Missouri up to 8 to 12 inches of snow in bitterly cold conditions.
[00:25:53] Also at townhall.com, Congress notified by the Biden administration of a planned $8 billion weapon sale to Israel.
[00:26:03] The sale includes medium-range air-to-air missiles to help Israel defend against airborne threats.
[00:26:10] 155-millimeter projectile artillery shells for long-range targeting.
[00:26:15] Hellfire AGM-114 missiles.
[00:26:18] 500-pound bombs and more.
[00:26:20] It would add to a record of around $18 billion in military aid that the U.S. has provided Israel since the war began more than a year ago.
[00:26:30] I'm Julie Walker.
[00:26:31] Police in Denmark are investigating a report of some 20 drones over the port of Kij, just southwest of Copenhagen.
[00:26:40] Police had been called to the site by a witness who claimed to have seen the drones that later disappeared at a very high rate of speed.
[00:26:48] Police are trying to determine who owns the drones as no permission had been issued for the drone flights in that area.

[00:31:42] So check it out, the Big MIG tonight, 7 p.m., the Big MIG Brothers and I.
[00:31:48] Incredibly talented.
[00:31:49] I guess that, is it called Armageddon or Carmageddon?
[00:31:54] Anyway, I guess it's called Carmageddon, which is kind of an interesting term, right?
[00:32:00] But you've got to be in the know, and you've got to check it out.
[00:32:05] That's what's happening.
[00:32:06] I don't know if you call that entertainment or what you call it, because when you mix politics and truisms with entertainment, it starts to become kind of music news, right?
[00:32:15] Is what really happens.
[00:32:17] All right, Dr. Bradley, I guess Trump did get sentenced, huh?
[00:32:22] Yeah, apparently CBS, for example.
[00:32:24] I was looking around during the news break.
[00:32:27] CBS posted a headline at 1029 a.m., which would be basically 830 Mountain Time, just minutes ago.
[00:32:35] Trump sentenced in felony hush money case released with no restrictions.
[00:32:40] And, of course, that brands him as a felon, a convicted and sentenced felon.
[00:32:45] Trump attended through his Mar-a-Lago home on Friday today.
[00:32:51] So it's a discharge for his 34 felony counts, released with no restrictions.
[00:32:59] And so they just hung an A upon him, you know, the scarlet letter.
[00:33:10] I'm trying to think about this.
[00:33:13] Sentencing today, no jail time, no fines, nothing.
[00:33:19] What do they call it?
[00:33:20] Unconditional discharge.
[00:33:21] Is that what it's called, doctor?
[00:33:28] After months of delay, after a lot of legal sparring or sparring, I should say, constitutional questions, uncertainty and more.
[00:33:38] Trump was sentenced to an unconditional discharge over his felony conviction on 34 counts.
[00:33:46] Trump sentenced without penalty, says the headline in New York hush money case.
[00:33:52] I don't even know what that means, ladies and gentlemen.
[00:33:55] What does it mean that you're sentenced with no penalties?
[00:33:58] Because to me, the stigma of being sentenced has a penalty.
[00:34:10] It's you're a felon now.
[00:34:13] So I don't know how we say that's no penalty.
[00:34:17] I don't really understand that too well, but that's what they're claiming.
[00:34:20] Now, I guess if you want to say no jail time, if you want to say because they didn't go to jail, no penalty.
[00:34:31] Okay, I mean, I kind of get that.
[00:34:32] But to me, just the stigma of they didn't have any counts that the juries completely agreed on.
[00:34:40] To me, this is an absolute abuse, an absolute exploitation, an absolute criminal act on our justice system, on the courts of our land.
[00:34:53] They should have never brought this case.
[00:34:56] They literally were able to legally wrangle and legally manipulate and lawfare this thing into existence in the first place.
[00:35:04] And just because they couldn't give Trump penalties like jail time or fines or, you know, anything else like that, community service at home with an ankle bracelet or, you know, that doesn't change the fact that they're calling him a felon now.
[00:35:17] But yet they couldn't even agree on the felony charges.
[00:35:20] There's a bunch of charges and nobody really convicted him on any charge per se.
[00:35:25] Okay, this is disaster.
[00:35:27] They're claiming it's with no penalties, unconditional discharge.
[00:35:31] Well, if it's unconditional, then he can't be called a felon, can he, doctor?
[00:35:34] There's no condition that he'd be called a felon.
[00:35:37] We'll just say he's not a felon then, okay?
[00:35:39] No, that isn't.
[00:35:40] I don't understand any of this.
[00:35:41] Well, that may be true, and it may be done for a purpose that we don't really, it doesn't fit our normal mold.
[00:35:48] But this goes down in the courts as a felony conviction and sentencing, and they basically got what they were looking for to be able to hang this on his head, if you will.
[00:36:03] So that's kind of an interesting phenomenon.
[00:36:07] I got a question.
[00:36:08] Can he pardon himself and get rid of the felony status?
[00:36:12] That goes against every one of my...
[00:36:14] I know, doctor, but all bets are off in America.
[00:36:16] You understand that, right?
[00:36:18] Well, right.
[00:36:20] But that is a grave concern that there may be something like that.
[00:36:23] I mean, everybody's walking off in the weeds in ways that we've never done before.
[00:36:29] And the fact that somebody can be their own savior kind of violates everything eternal in my perspective, too.
[00:36:39] I mean, there's a...
[00:36:43] It just is not...
[00:36:45] It is not...
[00:36:46] Well, if he's going to save us all, he's got to save himself first, doctor.
[00:36:49] Come on.
[00:36:52] Well, the following is...
[00:36:53] Just to be clear, ladies and gentlemen, I'm being facetious.
[00:36:55] I hope you realize that, because this is insanity.
[00:36:58] I'm not at all saying this is fine or endorsing this.
[00:37:00] I'm just showing you how psychotic it's become.
[00:37:04] Yeah.
[00:37:05] There's...
[00:37:05] Like I say, there's basically no bumper stoppers, and we're off in the weeds and maybe way in the jungle, and we don't even know which way is north.
[00:37:17] I mean...
[00:37:18] But every step of the way, we seem to be doing that in our world today.
[00:37:24] And it's really an amazing kind of an affliction we're at right now where everybody's kind of looking to break the system as much as they possibly can.
[00:37:34] It seems like that, yeah.
[00:37:35] Yeah.
[00:37:35] Now, I got a question, though.
[00:37:37] If there's no conditions, if there's without penalty, unconditional discharge, then can't you say that you can't call me a felon?
[00:37:45] Then that would be a condition, right?
[00:37:47] No.
[00:37:47] The way the law reads, that isn't the...
[00:37:50] That is not the way it works.
[00:37:54] And so...
[00:37:56] But then again, you know...
[00:37:57] But could he sue over that?
[00:37:58] Could he say, listen, you guys have found me guilty of nothing with no conditions.
[00:38:01] Now you're running around throwing this sign around my neck, this scarlet letter.
[00:38:06] If there's no conditions, a scarlet letter can't be put on my chest.
[00:38:10] Can't you sue over that?
[00:38:12] No, I don't know about lawsuit.
[00:38:14] I think he needs to appeal this conviction to the nth degree and bring out all of the inconsistencies and all of the things that basically made this a travesty from the beginning.
[00:38:27] So just make sure Doge doesn't take any away from Donald Trump's defend himself budget there, okay?
[00:38:34] Because you gotta, you know...
[00:38:35] Well, he should be defending himself through his appeals process, and that's how I would approach it.
[00:38:44] So, I don't know.
[00:38:48] But like I say, though, the hurried, rushed, again, not drawing too many parallels.
[00:38:56] You look at how the illegal trial of the Savior happened, and they went through, you know, and expedited every single step.
[00:39:04] They even convicted the Savior based upon something that violated ancient Israel's prohibition of self-incrimination.
[00:39:14] That's kind of where this thing started.
[00:39:16] Well, they use the technicality to where, hey, every so often we use this power to pardon one person, and we pardon somebody else, Barabbas, or whatever, and we're gonna convict the Savior.
[00:39:26] He doesn't get that passed.
[00:39:28] Donald's kind of a mixture of the two in this case, right?
[00:39:31] Well, he is.
[00:39:32] And again, without drawing too many parallels that would have people think...
[00:39:36] Yeah, we're not calling Trump their Savior, by the way, folks.
[00:39:38] We're just telling you this is very strange.
[00:39:40] But this is what lawyers do, doctor.
[00:39:42] That's kind of the point, too.
[00:39:44] Yeah, it really is.
[00:39:46] The twisting and turning and the, you know, if you hold your mouth just a certain way and kind of give the sideward glance or the wink, you know, you always have to say, holy cow.
[00:39:58] The trickery of this priestcraft we call, you know, law.
[00:40:04] I mean, lawyers are pretty proud of their craft.
[00:40:07] And most of, well, you can't say completely unequivocally, but a very high percentage of those holding office that create laws hold a law degree.
[00:40:20] And they kind of create them in their own mold, if you will.
[00:40:24] And I think that's a very unfortunate case where we have some of these people that are creating their own business for their own industry, if you will.
[00:40:35] And that seems to be one of the ways that is going on right now.
[00:40:40] All right.
[00:40:40] Skip the break.
[00:40:41] Are we going to go ahead and impeach the Donald before he even gets started?
[00:40:44] Ten days to where he swears in.
[00:40:46] Again, we're asking for a very humble inauguration for Donald.
[00:40:50] They say he raised 200 million for it.
[00:40:52] So he's going to spend out in oblivion and invite everybody and their dog.
[00:40:55] We would say to protect the president for safety reasons, let's skip the pomp and let's humbly swear in and get the job done.
[00:41:02] Donald Trump does have a plan for day one, though.
[00:41:05] And I want to go over some of this really quick because I am concerned about it.
[00:41:08] And I wonder if he needs to be impeached on the first day.
[00:41:12] Trump plans for as many as, quote, 100 executive orders on day one expected to, quote, first address Biden's invasion by illegal aliens.
[00:41:26] Bob Unruh with the piece.
[00:41:27] Trump has made it clear over and over and over that he is intending to make changes in the government as soon as he's, quote, inaugurated that same day, January the 20th.
[00:41:39] After all, Trump has repeatedly pointed out the failures and the failings in the Joe Biden's border policy, economic policy, transgender policies, his foreign affairs policies, his politics.
[00:41:56] Not to mention much, much more.
[00:41:58] And they say for some changes, Donald will need congressional action.
[00:42:02] For others, he will use his executive orders.
[00:42:06] To change some of Biden's executive order actions.
[00:42:11] So I guess a report for the Washington Examiner says that Trump and his advisers have already informed.
[00:42:20] Everyone that there's 100 executive orders for day one getting ready to be released.
[00:42:25] The orders will focus on immigration.
[00:42:27] A topic Trump has been adamant about fixing.
[00:42:32] And he says he'll already put the energy sector back in play with these things as well.
[00:42:36] Here's what I find interesting.
[00:42:38] If a president illegally does something by executive order, then other presidents instantly assume they have that power, too.
[00:42:47] Where the heck is Congress to bring the check?
[00:42:49] Where the heck is the courts to bring the check?
[00:42:51] Where the heck are the American people to bring the check and a balance on this thing?
[00:42:55] And they seem to be absent.
[00:42:57] And so executive power just continues to get increased, increased, increased.
[00:43:01] A hundred unconstitutional executive orders on day one.
[00:43:04] And you can say, well, he's only stopping abuse of Biden.
[00:43:08] I get it.
[00:43:11] But there's no authority, doctor.
[00:43:14] Well, this bears a longer discussion than I'm sure you're going to be able to give to it.
[00:43:19] But the fact of the matter is that much of what Biden did was exactly what you're saying Trump is going to do.
[00:43:24] And that's exactly what he's opposing.
[00:43:26] And that's exactly what's happened with the previous president and so on and so on back forth.
[00:43:31] The all legislative authority is granted and delegated to the United States House and Senate.
[00:43:38] United States Constitution Article 1, Section 1.
[00:43:41] And as you point out, Biden, he unconstitutionally created things.
[00:43:47] We'll take them off.
[00:43:49] OK, maybe maybe some of those things.
[00:43:52] Now, here's here's the thing that's interesting.
[00:43:54] An existing, let's say a legislature, cannot bind a future legislature.
[00:44:00] OK, this is you just got to follow with me for a second.
[00:44:04] So that means a legislature can say this is a law this time.
[00:44:08] And when the next legislature convenes, they can get rid of that law.
[00:44:12] There's no binding of future legislatures.
[00:44:15] Constitutions do that.
[00:44:17] They prevent people from overstepping bounds and they set things in concrete, if you will.
[00:44:22] They can only be changed by an amendment.
[00:44:24] And that's an arduous process.
[00:44:28] So if presidents violated, as you say, with the presidential decree of some sort, something that they had no authority to do and another president takes it away.
[00:44:38] You know, that's it's a really confusing kind of process for government.
[00:44:43] But you can see that there's some logic behind that.
[00:44:46] But but but when presidents create law that's affected as law and and unconstitutionally, so the legislature needs to step in and say we have a constitutional responsibility, not just authority.
[00:45:00] It's our duty to oppose this and call you on the carpet for this.
[00:45:05] So let me give you an example.
[00:45:07] So this forty two law and this remain in Mexico law.
[00:45:11] So Biden got rid of it.
[00:45:12] Trump's going to bring it back.
[00:45:14] So one president got rid of the law.
[00:45:16] The other president brings back the law, which used to be the law in the first place.
[00:45:20] You know, so can the president just do that?
[00:45:22] See, I don't think so.
[00:45:23] And I support what Trump wants to do because I think that Biden was wrong.
[00:45:27] But the question is, if you can break it by executive order, can you fix it by executive order?
[00:45:31] And, you know, where do we go?
[00:45:32] Because at some point you just get more and more and more power in the presidency.
[00:45:35] Congress sits idly by during what they accomplished.
[00:45:38] They've been in business for five days as of today, Friday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, five whole days.
[00:45:45] What are they accomplished?
[00:45:46] They sworn in a thug leader that won't do a good job.
[00:45:49] And then I don't know what else they've done, but nothing that I've heard of in importance.
[00:45:52] And they've already been at it for a whole 40 hour week if they work like the rest of us,
[00:45:56] which they don't.
[00:45:57] But I'm just saying, what on earth is happening?
[00:46:00] And so, I mean, I appreciate Donald wants to roll these things back.
[00:46:03] And I support a lot of what he stands for.
[00:46:05] I just don't know that I support the way we're going about it because every time we just give more power to the president
[00:46:10] and sideline the legislative body.
[00:46:13] Well, the legislature needs to grow a backbone and say over our dead body or the heck you say
[00:46:18] or however you want to pronounce it, the legislature needs to grow a backbone and say over our dead body.
[00:46:26] There is a responsibility, a constitutional responsibility that each organization,
[00:46:32] each body, each department or branch, whatever you want to call them,
[00:46:36] must defend their position or they will lose it.
[00:46:41] And the legislature has been losing it for decades now.
[00:46:45] And they've just let ancient Chinese tradition take over now instead of the real constitutional backbone that should be there.
[00:46:53] And so we need to have, you know, a Mike Johnson and, you know, let's get the, man,
[00:47:02] the House and the Senate just need to say we're closing ranks on this thing.
[00:47:06] We're going to only, no, let's just take, for example, the, you mentioned the stay in Mexico thing.
[00:47:12] Yeah.
[00:47:13] Now, was that created legislatively?
[00:47:16] If it was, then it has standing.
[00:47:19] If it wasn't created legislatively, it should.
[00:47:21] We don't need an executive order, though, to give it standing.
[00:47:25] If it has standing, the first executive order was criminal.
[00:47:29] Well, if it doesn't have standing, the first executive order was criminal, yes.
[00:47:34] If it does have standing, you don't need, so all I'm saying is either way.
[00:47:40] The executive order is criminal to overrule Congress if it is a legitimate,
[00:47:45] not congressionally approved law, and if it wasn't a congressionally approved law,
[00:47:49] it's so the first executive order, no matter what, is criminal, right?
[00:47:54] It seems such.
[00:47:55] And, in fact, probably what it was, was, you hate to say everything's tied together to money,
[00:48:03] but it probably was, where an agreement was made, an executive agreement that says,
[00:48:09] we'll pay Mexico X number of dollars, how many billion extras in foreign exchange,
[00:48:15] to keep people there, house them, until we get around to adjudicating their case for asylum,
[00:48:24] which is what most people are claiming when they're coming through.
[00:48:27] And so the whole thing is a morass of problems,
[00:48:31] and unraveling it without having, you know, the fingerprints
[00:48:36] and the documents in front of me right this second is not going to occur.
[00:48:43] Yeah, it's almost impossible.
[00:48:45] All I'm saying to you is this, the president has no ability to make or change law, period.
[00:48:50] And to do so is pretend legislation, and to create these executive orders for or against,
[00:48:55] even if I'm for the executive order, by the way.
[00:48:57] To me, the problem is that you don't have authority to make or change law,
[00:49:01] and it's pretend legislation, and it's fraudulent, and it needs to stop.
[00:49:05] And even if our guy does it, you know, a lot of people are like,
[00:49:07] well, let's just get our guy in there.
[00:49:09] Let's put, you know, 10,000 executive orders and fix everything,
[00:49:12] and then we'll stop it.
[00:49:13] We won't do that anymore because it's wrong.
[00:49:15] Okay, no, you've got to start by doing what's right.
[00:49:17] You don't fix right by doing wrong to fix right and pretend you'll get it right later.
[00:49:24] And that's basically what's been happening.
[00:49:27] We've been, by guess and by golly, from so many generations now that, you know,
[00:49:33] you look back at Roosevelt.
[00:49:34] He basically took the opinion that if it didn't specifically, you know,
[00:49:39] the Constitution did not specifically prevent him from doing something,
[00:49:43] he had to do it.
[00:49:45] That's where, in my opinion, he's violating his oath of office.
[00:49:48] We should hold him accountable for it.
[00:49:49] So here's the last line of this story.
[00:49:51] It says this.
[00:49:52] For some changes, Trump will need congressional action.
[00:49:56] For others, he will use his executive order, quote,
[00:50:00] authority to combat Biden's former authority.
[00:50:05] Okay, there's no authority there, first of all.
[00:50:07] And so the problem that I have with this whole thing is that, you know,
[00:50:11] we have got to rein in presidential authority,
[00:50:14] but I'm convinced that Donald the imperialist is going to expand presidential authority
[00:50:19] like you've never seen in your life, doctor.
[00:50:22] Well, I think we're seeing that already.
[00:50:25] I mean, although Biden really did, but much of that,
[00:50:30] and so did everybody before him in the last 10 presidents, you know.
[00:50:36] But, you know, let's talk for just a second about Biden eliminating 625 million acres of oil exploration offshore
[00:50:47] with the stroke of a pen here just the other day.
[00:50:51] He did that by executive order.
[00:50:53] But that executive order was based upon a legislatively created law back in 1953
[00:51:01] that said the president can withdraw offshore lands from oil exploration.
[00:51:06] Okay, so Trump, based upon my understanding,
[00:51:13] there is not a clause in there that says that Trump can take off an exclusion.
[00:51:19] Yeah, which means in every way the criminals have all authority to act and do anything they want to,
[00:51:23] and the people that want to get it straight can't do it because there's no way forward is what you're saying.
[00:51:29] Well, there is a way.
[00:51:30] Congress is going to have to say.
[00:51:32] No, they can't.
[00:51:32] They won't.
[00:51:33] They're too busy trying to get their noses powdered and trying to get rich.
[00:51:37] Well, they can and they should, but they won't is probably the more appropriate.
[00:51:42] I don't know if they can at this point, though.
[00:51:44] I think we'd end up with a civil war with Israel if they do.
[00:51:46] Well, the 1953 law that Biden ostensibly used to withdraw 625 million acres of offshore drilling potential
[00:51:57] was based upon a lot.
[00:52:00] You've got to be careful what laws you create.
[00:52:02] See, very often Congress will create a law.
[00:52:06] And let's just, you could use that example,
[00:52:08] or you could say we're creating the BATFE to regulate firearms.
[00:52:13] Well, they can't re-delegate their authority to do any of that kind of lawmaking stuff constitutionally,
[00:52:19] but they have delegated it unconstitutionally.
[00:52:22] And now the BATFE, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, claims authority.
[00:52:28] And, you know, the Chevron rule, we're going to be the authority on this because we're the experts.
[00:52:33] Well, we're hoping that can be unraveled too.
[00:52:36] But Congress needs to stop being idiots and stop creating laws.
[00:52:40] Clear back in 1953, this is over 70 years ago, Sam.
[00:52:44] They created a law that's going to hinder the ability for America to be able to become more energy independent.
[00:52:52] I mean, all of these things just, how shall we say, warnings, warning shots, if you will, across the bow.
[00:53:01] You can't stray even 70 years ago and not have it have consequences.
[00:53:08] And so there's got to be some wisdom come back into the courts and these halls of lawmaking.
[00:53:16] And it's just run amok.
[00:53:18] And you're right, we could if we would, but we won't.
[00:53:21] Because, by golly, DEI is much more important than getting boys to play volleyball with girls.
[00:53:29] Yeah, that's right.
[00:53:30] I mean, here's the problem that I see with this thing, though.
[00:53:33] So, you know, they say for some changes he'll need congressional action, for others he can just do it.
[00:53:38] Who's deciding those lines?
[00:53:40] And I submit to you there are basically lawfare attorneys.
[00:53:43] There are hate-filled attorneys that hate the U.S. Constitution, hate America.
[00:53:47] And they will basically cross the line, cross the line, cross the line, cross the line to where you don't even know anymore.
[00:53:54] The guidelines that you and I are using, which would be constitutional.
[00:53:58] Hey, you don't have any legislative authority, president.
[00:54:00] That's where you stop.
[00:54:01] Those boundaries have been obliterated, right?
[00:54:04] They largely have.
[00:54:06] And it's because of the priestcraft that the attorneys exercise that they think they're the supreme of everything.
[00:54:13] And, of course, the Supreme Court is acting that way forever anyway.
[00:54:17] So it's a mess.
[00:54:20] But they've got to start clawing it back.
[00:54:22] You can't just capitulate.
[00:54:24] It's never too big to turn to God Almighty in prayer.
[00:54:28] I'll tell you that right now.
[00:54:29] We need to pray for our nation, pray for our leaders, and pray that we obey the Constitution.
[00:54:35] Hour one in the can, hour two coming up.
[00:54:37] Let's talk about Elon Musk.
[00:54:38] Big mouth, backtracks.
[00:54:41] I'll tell you about it next hour.
[00:54:43] Hang tight.
[00:54:43] God save the republic.
