Why Is Acts From America's 250 Celebration Dropping Out?
Transcript
105 segmentsTom Giordano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. All right, that was a heck of a list, the Friday 5. I have to concede to Hamri or not. The Epstein thing at the end was a little bit outside the barriers of what we were going with, but well played. Yeah, he was storing this one up for a while. He's JFK's birthday, and I still maintain that's the guy I can't imagine taking a picture with him. But... Any number of these other guys, I'd have to see them in person before I go down that path. Like Joe of Columbus. I'm flipping coins on that one. Whether we should take a picture with him last week. I think Ike Reese did. So he decided, yeah, I'll take a picture of Joe of Columbus. We should put them up now so we can determine that. Let me go to Joe. By the way, a new guy on Twitter, I haven't seen. Starman before. Speaking of grocery stores, how about the people that walk in the door of the grocery store, stop dead, three feet inside, staring about and wonder is that they've never set foot in a grocery store before. I've kind of seen that. I wouldn't say it's universal, but I've seen enough of it. Yeah, he or she is right about that. And I don't see anybody going after Henry on the back in here. I'm kind of surprised. Usually that there's... Are there? There's a few. Oh, there's a few. Okay. They're gearing up here. Okay. I think the worst people that just stop in the middle of nowhere, the ones at the airport, like they've never been in an airport before. Yeah, exactly. Stop dead in their tracks. Like, oh, my God. Yes, the wonder of it all. Okay. Let's go to Joe in Columbus on Talk Radio 1210. So how did that I-Greece photo turn out, Joe? Oh, my kids. My kids loved it, Don. Okay. They really did. My son was, my son, I don't know if you noticed, and I don't like doing it, but I do do it. I'm texting while I'm with you, and my son is texting me. Dad, get a picture. Get a picture. Dad, he wears, this is my older son. Dad, he wears a rider hoodie all the time. My oldest son went the rider. find out why he wears the rider hoodie. So I asked him that. And his daughter goes to the rider. Okay. So, yeah, you know, we hit it off a little bit. But who wouldn't I take a picture with, sir? Yeah, who would that be? Who wouldn't I take a picture with? I got mine, and he's a little before my time. And I didn't realize this is going to be a double side question today. There was a look around the Trenton ghetto neighborhoods. Guy had perfect hair. He had all the girls. He was always on the beach. And everybody wanted to look like a new updated version of Frankie Avalon. Ah, yeah, well, Frankie Avalon, eight kids, I guess he, yeah, yeah, Annette Funichello, yeah. And Joe, by the way, we have Trump on this, too. Trump in an interview says he wants to look like Jackson Dart. The lawyer of Trump interview. Not going to be good for Jackson Dart. Yeah. Yes. And that's what I wanted to talk about, particularly Jackson Dart. His attackers, his detractors, how selfish could they possibly be? Did they ever consider this guy's grandkids could tell their children, look at your great-grandfather. He got to announce the president of the United States, no matter who it was, Dom.
How are they to take away from that, detract from that? Well, and Joe, again, that the problem with all this stuff, Ryan Clark came closer. If they can give me a specific, then it's on. We can debate. All this vague stuff suddenly about Trump, though. I don't even know if it's real. I'm sure some of these guys like Abdul Carter, but I don't know how far it goes there. And Joe, for a week, we've talked about this almost a week. On Memorial Day, that's what I led with. It is a shocking story, even in this era of you can't be with Trump. It's almost hard to believe. No, like I said, you know, they find the person and they find the attack, you know. I mean, I wonder what would happen if Ryan ever took a picture with Obama and somebody came in and said, how dare he take a picture with Obama? You know, what would be the fallout to that? Well, their answer is that's because Obama's for good and Trump is a racist and for bad. They'll say that clearly. So at least we can debate that. Yeah, and my mom has a picture in Friedrich Merz County Airport of her and my sister with Mondale. And we kept it. No, no, no, it wasn't Mondale. Who was the one? I'm sorry, the one with the dead arm, the dead hand. Oh, Bob Dole. Bob Dole. Bob Dole. She has a picture right up with Bob Dole, him talking to my mother. And my sister looking up with a little styrofoam campaign, you know, hat, looking up at Bob Dole like, oh, my God. You know, she was nine years old. She knew who Bob Dole was. Who the heck is Ryan Clark? to say somebody cannot have that moment. Absolutely. So what's your side today? Don, my side gets me every day. Right up the street from where you had that summer series with Bill O'Reilly in Bordentown. Remember that back then? Yep. I was there in attendance. Right up the road on Route 1.30, they call it the top of the hill. And every time I go that, that's my route to my office every day, my car starts stinking with any car that passes me. And at the bottom of that hill is a dispensary. And that smell stays in my car. for like the next four miles down the road. And you know they're in their car, whether it's a Wawa parking lot or a target parking lot, you get out and you smell that. It's just so intrusive constantly. Absolutely. Thank you, Joe. 855, 8,000, 9, 12, 10, you get in.
All right, something we're looking for today that coming off is the e-bike guy. Did he go? Oh, no, he's here. Chris and Ben Salem on the e-bikes. All right, Chris. You thought we were a little too hard on e-bikes, huh? Yeah, hey, Dom. Thanks for taking on my phone. You're welcome, Chris. So, I mean, you know, there's different classes of e-bikes that are different speeds. And, of course, you have. The illegal ones, you know, the motor, e-motos that go 40, 60 miles an hour and you got, you know, kids going crazy on them. I mean, like, have you ever been on 95 and you had like a crazy motorcycle rider, like swing, you know, cut the, you know, split the lanes and go past you and scare the daylight, how do you? Oh, absolutely, sure. Yeah. Yeah. Does that mean we should ban all motorcycles? Well, I would say, oh, Henry, get ready, that a great number, I don't know what number I'd put at, significant number of motorcycle riders do that on highways, Chris. Yeah, but I mean, there's a large percentage that rides safely. I mean, like, for example, I'm in my late 70s. I just got eBites from me and my wife. I mean, we're not going to go crazy. I mean, my wife will barely. You know, set her pedal assist past, you know, number one or number two. I mean, we just, we ride around the neighborhood for fun. Well, Chris, you got to understand. Maybe we can get a rack and go to the shore. But now they're saying all the stuff. It's like, well, maybe we'll go somewhere else for vacation. But, Chris, you got to understand where we are, and on the boardwalk, too, where we are in downtown Philadelphia. We're in an unusual place. It's hard to park. There's no stop signs or lights for about three blocks. It's straight downhill. And they're in bike lanes, and they are literally going over 30, maybe 35, maybe even 40, some of them coming around a curve. Yeah, I mean, they're just being reckless. I mean, it's, right. The behavior is illegal, obviously, but, like, we shouldn't, like, make everyone suffer to obey the law and wants to drive safely. No, we don't want to do that. Do you have a side today? Chris, what's the thing, menace? Oh, menace, people driving slow in the left lane. Okay, gotcha. That's a classic all-timer. Okay, 855, 839, 12, 10. That's how you get on board. We're going to talk with Stacey Garrity. And finally, there's a couple things in the campaign if the media pays attention with Josh Shapiro. It's clear that Josh Shapiro, through Amazon, his buddies. was all over. Let's bring these giant AI data centers to Pennsylvania. He was one of the biggest in the country. Now all of a sudden, he's out there with his four-point plan saying that, no, we don't want to be doing that. Oh, my God, I never. What are you talking about? And Stacey Garrity now is on this. Now, we talked with her before, and that was my advice. This is a big lane for people to be on. By the way. Josh Shapiro is just the worst, most ruthless politician imaginable. But I give him credit for studying and getting something. President Trump has been one of the best presidents tapping into sports, you know, even though he brings up, shall we say comically, the NFL football rule. He could be in the middle of the Iran thing right now. He's in the situation room. You know,
I bet the Iranians would like the NFL kickoff rule, what they have now. He just says the thing about it. I do too. So Josh Shapiro is committing $30 million. It's going to take a while, though, to decreasing, in his words, traffic jams after a game down at the sports complexes. And, you know, with their new building, they're building and all that. So I wouldn't commit if I were him $30 million to it. You mean to say, in other words, you're going to put another off ramp headed to the Schuco Expressway on 7th Street versus how far up you have to go now. I guess there'll be several getting on there. They think that's a way to eliminate it. You can't throw your hands up and just say you're just going to have to wait after this. So, Henry, what would you say a reasonable amount of time is before you clear? the zone of the ballparks, we're talking Pattison, you're up to broad at least, then you're on your own. I would say it shouldn't take 20 minutes and sometimes it takes that long. I'd say it ought to take seven or eight minutes. I would lean more towards the 20. You think that's reasonable? What do you have to put up with? Yeah, at least. Okay. I would say it's never usually less than that. Yeah. If you're trying to go back to the suburbs or something. Right. So I'm not sure him putting $30 million in what that's going to do. That seems to be kind of after the fact. The fact is what do you do, and maybe that's on the teams, to make it easier or harder to get out of the parking lots. You can't say, well, we're not going to do anything. In other words, what I'm saying is there's a lane of stuff like this convenience. And Josh Shapiro's trying to tap into it. I wish Stacey Garrity would tap into it more. I wish Republicans would. The Democrat Party is the party of over-regulation. It's almost as bad as overtaxing. And the Republicans have to constantly emphasize ways to let people get on their way to make it convenient to do just about anything. Is the ballpark thing impossible? So he steps up yesterday, but all the sports media in the world, and he gets to pose as somebody in sports, you know, he's got his jump shot and all that stuff with this guy. But he's committing a lot. A $30 million is excessive. That just helps the ball clubs. I don't see how that helps the average person. In other words, I don't think his instinct is right. I don't think this is the solution. to being something that's going to get you on your way. I need like a traffic expert. Like someone had to explain it to him to be like it's actually going to decongest in this way, not just everyone's going to bottleneck right here. I don't know. There's got to be some sort of logic behind it. Because yeah, if this does go awry, it's going to look bad for him. Yeah. Yeah. So I think it's more just around the ballpark getting out of there is where the difficulties. And that involves the best.
You know, of not letting people go a certain way to kind of relieve stuff and all. And I guess they've looked at it, but anybody that would do that, his instinct is right. This is what people want. They want solutions to everyday problems when you get right down to it. If you can deliver those things and then they look at your bigger policies, but they're not going to look at Iran right away necessarily if your other policies. I approach school choice that way. as something that is, I can't understand how people would be opposed to it, given what you have to go through. Making life easier. Showing exact concrete things that you've done to make it smoother. In dealing with anything with the government, for example. Almost impossible, but that's what we should be doing. Okay, 855, 839, 12, 10, jump in something that is an everyday menace is what we're looking for. Hey, attention, Pennsylvania, New Jersey homesowers.

It is Domt, Stacey Garrity on the On-Dx Circle, and a lot of big stuff in the governor's race, which is critical. Leslie Fisherpine, great comments on Twitter. Tweeting back at Martina McBride. Martina, you've dropped out of the 250 event. I think it starts June 26 through July 24th. The entertainment in Washington we've been talking about, what exactly about is it partisan? What didn't you understand that's partisan? That was her excuse. Oh, I didn't know it was partisan. No, she's feeling the heat. She's feeling the pressure. And part of me realizes that, you know,
It's got to be unrelenting here. Now, the Dart guy apparently was civil, et cetera, to his teammates in the meeting they have, but did not apologize, according to reports, for introducing President Trump. But Martina McBride, if she appears at this, is afraid I don't know that her career would be over, but things would be very difficult. So part of me takes that into account. And the only remedy to this, I guess, is to go all out to try to support the people who are just wanting to show up, play music, and then get threats of both economically and then threats physically to have to deal with this. So we're reduced, I think, to one from Millie Vanilli. and vanilla ice, and then I'm not sure. And you have people saying, well, why don't you just bring in great musicians to play in Washington that maybe people don't know? Well, you could do that. That'd be fine. People might enjoy it. But that's not going to stop them from then saying, ha, ha, America's against you. You can't get X. This is the age-all battle. This is what's going on with Trump. The idea is, if you associate it all, Even though there's nothing about this event that's partisan, other than he's the president and it's in Washington that I can think of. So Martina McBride and others, it would be better if they perform. But I understand what the dilemma is here. There's nothing about it using the excuse why I didn't know this was going to be partisan. is a little bit different. Now, we were talking yesterday, and Hoke-old today has kind of sealed the deal for me. I think he'll come on on Monday. State Senator, Republican, allegedly, John Brannick. I'm going to ask Henry trying to get him on now on Monday. We kind of booked up today. He's the last time he was on with me. He said, well, you tell me why state troopers don't wear a mask like the ICE agents do. And we played you yesterday, this guy that there's a man hunt on for. I hope they catch him. I'd make it a top priority and make sure we fully publicize what's going to happen to him. He's going to be fully charged, indicted, threatening a federal officer. The guy that told one of the ICE agents that the mask slipped or something, he saw his face, they're going to know it. You're dead. Your wife's dead. Your kids and everything else. That's why, John Bramick. That's why they're wearing the mask. And we keep on having this debate. Now, if you want to say they should be fully identified by the uniform insignia, something like that, that's what the identifier is. People know this is ice. You don't want them to wear the mask. Because you want the mob to get at them. You know about social media. That's the other thing. I mean, what are we in the Flintstone days? We're living in an era where this can be all over the place. And that's exactly what they live for. One other comment. And I'm trying to think if there are any mainstream religions where women have to subjugate themselves.
And that's exactly what I think we're seeing going. I'm looking at Mikie Sherrill, another event with the hijab on, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez at an event. Look, it's America. They can do that to say they're showing conformity to a religion. And I can say, yeah, conformity to a religion that diminishes women. That's exactly what's going on here. So don't posture as a feminist. Well, I don't want to give offense to that religion. Okay, which one is it? Are you a feminist or not? Is that not diminishing women? You have every right to do it in America. You have every right to have a religion in some cases that has women completely cover themselves. That's your right. No doubt about it. But I think we have a right to call into contention. You know, and I haven't seen them. What other religion are they pointing to? Back in the day, women wearing a hat in church. But those days are long gone, are they not? As far as, if not mandatory, sort of a social moray, right? Why in the world would you dress up like this then? Well, we don't want to give offense to the religion. Well, I would argue the religion is offensive in this manner. in what it's demanding of women. Why do women have to cover up would be the issue? It's a patriarchy at best. And to be there with Zohran Mamdani and these others, a guy who cannot walk in the Israel parade. First mayor since 1964, I think when they first started doing it in New York. It is one side. It's big at it. It's wrong. And again, everybody has a right in America to express however they want. But that means you might want to critique why an Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Mikie Sherrill feel it's necessary to do that. Well, it would be offensive. Well, it's offensive to me. Both of you are offensive to common sense and reason anyhow, but you're offensive in this regard. All righty, 855, 839, 12, 10, Stacey Garrity, candidate for governor on the Republican side, the data centers. Now have made their way into the governor's race. And her challenge is the corrupt media, I don't think you're going to tell those people out in the suburbs, the champion, the guy who opened Pennsylvania up to these AI data centers is Josh Shapiro. Doesn't he have to answer for that? We'll talk with her next. You get in at 855, 839, 1210. Tom Tierdano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. All right, it is Dom time, and I'd say over the last two weeks, it's come to ahead all this AI talk, some of the commencement speeches we brought you. Bill O'Reilly and I differing over it, but the key thing here in the governor's race and where we live, are places like Chester County, now Bucks County, the suburbs, and these AI facilities and people packing, like Upper Marion, packing the town halls, the council meetings on this. Well, the guy that opened the floodgates on this, it's pretty clear he was very proud about it. And by the way, a lot of money if you run for governor and or president could come your way, was Governor Josh Shapiro.
And Stacey Garrity, the last week or so on the campaign trail, has been tapping into this because Josh Shapiro now is trying to rewrite history and say he's the guy that's a good steward of this. Let's go to candidate, treasurer, Stacey Garrity, candidate for governor in Pennsylvania. Stacey, welcome back. Thanks for joining us. Hey, Dan. Great to be with you. Well, I'm glad that this finally has reached ahead. I briefly mentioned it to you the last time you were on. We talked a little bit about, you know, out in some abandoned mines and stuff like that in Pennsylvania, where there might be a place for this. But Josh Shapiro was gone down Broadway with this. And now he's wakened to the fact that suburban Philadelphia, and I'm sure you're hearing it across the state. is not enamored with bringing more of these AI centers in. No, they're absolutely not. And, you know, the reason is because lack of transparency and not involving the locals to begin with, which I've said from the beginning, like I said on your show, I'm sure there's some places for it, but you have to have community buy-in. And my goodness, a lot of these townships, their zoning is from the 60s and 70s. So he went from being Data Center's biggest cheerleader to doing damage control. And you're right, like you said earlier, trying to rewrite history. and put on the brakes because, you know, he knows people are really upset about it. Well, it was also he was very much involved with touting Amazon on this, and I think Amazon would have some of the bigger locales for this. Absolutely. He said he was very proud of the project. He said his team worked very closely with Amazon to land the deal. He said it was a great, you know, example of private sector and the government working well together. Well, maybe the state government, but obviously they didn't involve the local. Yes, without a doubt. Stacey, where you go, is it across the state like Pittsburgh or some of these small? I know here in the Philadelphia suburbs, I can tell you on the ground. Upper Marion, for example, it is stunning to see these town halls where nobody ever shows up. We had one literally, we had on Senator Coleman talking about it in his district. It's overwhelming. It's just will the media cover it and actually tell people who brought it here. Probably not. But you're right. Now he's saying he's going to put some guardrails on the industry. But I think that cat's out of the bag because they already announced the $20 billion deal with Amazon. And I have to say that he has received over $8 million in campaign contributions from AI Data Center. Oops.
Yes. So it's crazy. So he's absolutely doing this, you know, to attract, you know, think about Jeff Bezos, who owns the Washington Times, right? And so he's doing it for his campaign. He doesn't care about Pennsylvaniaans. He cares about Pennsylvania Avenue. Now, this one is something the media has only been sporadically looking at. I'm talking about the sexual harassment case. But it brings into question again, a guy in the Democrat Party who touts his record with women. And yet one of your colleagues who really is one of your biggest champions, the senator, the Senate pro tempore has gone after him on this. And he just, it shows that any kind of challenge to this guy, he doesn't stay in the lane. He just tries to crush even female representatives. And again, the transparency that's going on here, or lack of it, tell us how that's starting to bubble up. Right. So Josh Shapiro, he is the least transparent governor in modern Pennsylvania history. And I don't know if you saw the report that came up from Broad and Liberty, but he's been asked directly 16 times. why they deleted the email account of the young lady that accused him, and why he says that he found out about the sexual misconduct over, you know, five months they've asked him, and why he found out about it four weeks after, you know, his buddy left the office. And they have refused to answer just two questions, 16 times. So, and so they did write-to-no request from five different Pennsylvania government agencies, and they all contradict his claims that his administration followed the document retention policy. So he can't say that he's for women, Dom, because they paid off this young lady, $295,000. By the way, our taxpayer dollars, made her sign a non-disclosure agreement. Then he turned around and took $2.1 million. from the founder of LinkedIn, Reid Hoffman, who was Jeffrey Epstein's travel buddy after Jeffrey Epstein was convicted, a convicted sex offender. So don't tell me that, you know, he stands for women. He clearly does not. Yes. And as I said, his personal temperament with your colleague, too, is a real good example of this. Stacey Garrity with us candidate for president. Stacey, I do it a podcast. You were good enough to come on about school choice. I had on the leading Democrat yesterday we taped it, who is trying to move Democrats to be for more for school choice in education reform. And he bet me, he said he believes every Democrat governor before the deadline is up, we'll sign off for this. So I have a big pizza bet with them about Josh Shapiro. The school choice issue here in Philadelphia, it is beyond rock bottom. I'm sure you hear this and you've seen some of the reports. We're talking about the physical deterioration, the safety issues, just up in line, the lack of proficiency, Harrisburg. It's only 12%. As you go around the state, how does this play out? Because Josh Shapiro certainly is not going to be a champion of school choice.
No, because he's not unpaid by the teacher's union, of course. But when I travel around the state, it is, I mean, I would say 80 to 85% of everybody wants school choice because your zip code, talk about Philadelphia, shouldn't determine your child's success. You know, school choice is a true lifeline for a lot of these kids. And parents, you know, parents want their kids to have opportunities. And what's the best way to do? Make sure they're, you know, they have good education. And you remember when he first ran, he said, every child of God deserves a quality education and then he line item vetoed it. out of the budget. So again, it's because Josh Shapiro is more interested in Pennsylvania Avenue than helping Pennsylvania families, and it shows time and time again. We'll give people where we can find your campaign in a second, Stacey. Any events coming up in our area you'd like to tell us about? Oh, my goodness. So garrity4PA.com is the website. And then, of course, Facebook is Stacey Garrity for Pennsylvania. And events should be on the website. I know I'm going to be in Perry County tomorrow. And last weekend I was actually in Bucks County. Oh, yeah. I know that big event over there. Yeah. Yeah, that was a nice event. So I will have to look on the calendar, and I should have looked before I got out there. That's okay. Give us where we go again. People can follow it there, Stacey. Yes, they can. So the events are on garrity4PA.com, and I think we're going to be doing some listening tours around these data centers. So stay tuned. Yes, that's a brilliant idea. Let us know we want to come out and promote that and take some of the... Yeah, that's exactly it. Well, you probably know in other areas of state. All I can tell you is here. This is the hot button of hot button. Some of these are bigger than the King of Prussia Mall. They're bigger than the Philadelphia International Airport. And it's finally dawned on people. All we have to do now is take the record and tie it to the guy who opened all this up. Exactly. And that's why I'm saying we have to pause because, you know, like you said, there are a lot of uncertainties. There are legitimate concerns. We want to make sure that these communities are protected. And it's up to the communities. It shouldn't be, you know, government trying to force this down the people's throats. And a real leader, if Josh Shapiro had been a real leader, he would have brought the local governments in and, you know, taking care. of all of this before bringing in the data centers, but he didn't. Because again, that's a lot of money that got donated to his campaign. Exactly. Stacey, thank you very much. Good to talk with you today, as always. Great to talk with you. All right, Stacey Garrity here on Talk Radio 12. It's a busy day coming up. Congressman Ryan McKenzie with us, his opponent, Bob Brooks.
Is he really scamming his relatives out of big money? Oh, man, you know, people feel of Josh Shapiro stealing land, Bob Brooks, the parents of, what's the name, third basement for the Phillies? Wow. Yeah, what is it with the in-laws? All right, McKenzie is next. We'll get your calls, though, all-time, everyday menace is what we're looking for on Talk Radio 12. Tap. Tom, Giardano, on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. All right, busy day here with Don. We'll get in more of your calls too coming up. Congressman Ryan McKenzie is one of our favorites last time. One of the times we talked with him with Speaker Johnson because he is in one of those races that's crucial to determining who holds the house. And he's going against the Democrats' new Frankenstein monster, somebody who is a real guy down to Earth, the firefighter. He's putting out fires there. But is he also scamming his in-laws? Let's go to Congressman Ryan McKenzie on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Congressman, welcome back. So now we know officially who the opponent is. And one of the stories out there shows this guy to be more of a financial insider. It seems to be his preoccupation maybe than a union leader and firefighter. That is all correct. And the Democrats and the Democratic establishment spent millions of dollars of dark money on his behalf because they wanted their handpicked candidate, Conman and fraudster Bob Brooks. So they steamrolled all the local Democrats. They hijacked the democratic process just so that they could get their corrupt political insider, somebody who is a wealthy lobbyist with a vast stock portfolio. And he also has this record. of stealing from his own family, which you just talked about. It's shocking that this is the person that they picked, but the Democratic establishment, they want somebody that they know they can control and is going to listen to them, and Bob Brooks is their guy, if that's what they're looking for. Yeah, definitely Josh Shapiro's hands all over it. I think more broadly, they're trying to dream up, you know, sometimes they fumble like Tauro Rico in Texas. They're going to have trouble. saying, hey, we're with men, we're common sense, we're everyday sort of people. And that's the veneer that we see in the ads. And he's been well-funded with Brooks. But to your point, now that we know he's a nominee, there's a lot more there. When we talk about this with the relatives, it involves, I think, his former wife and in-laws, and the trail is there. I mean, you have put out the whole trail on this guy of what he's done that clearly... is something that the media ought to be taken a look at. This isn't even our position or an opinion. This is a fact that was proven in court. And so he owes his in-laws $160,000 at this point, refuses to pay them. And this has gone through the whole legal process. He's out of appeals. And this is somebody who is a con man and a fraudster. He took this property from his in-laws with an agreement to repay, has never repaid them.
never actually come to the table to negotiate some kind of an agreement or a settlement. And the court said that you are on the hook for this over $100,000 in a civil judgment. And he just refuses to pay. And that is in spite of the fact that he has multiple salaries coming in from when he was a firefighter, being the head of a union, he's a union boss where he gets. tens of thousands of dollars every year for doing that. He has some other side jobs. So he is not short on cash his stock portfolio, which has all kinds of corporations that he likes to rail against and pretend that he's opposed to. He has this vast stock portfolio that is valued anywhere up to almost $4 million. And so for him to pretend that he's in every man, it's just not believable. But this is what the Democrats do. They package up the most... far-left individual that they can find. He's a Bernie Sanders endorsed individual, wants to push all of his far-left agenda items, and then under the auspice that he's just an everyman. He's a common person like anybody else. And so once you peel back these layers of the onion, though, the story starts to fall apart pretty quickly. But... The media, to your point, some people have written about this, but there have been some really glossy profiles on him that never touch on these things. So we need to make sure we're getting the message out, the truth out, that this guy, Bob Brooks is a con man and a fraudster who stole from his own family, refuses to pay back the money that he stole, even though the court said he has to do it. And it's... you know, in spite of all of the money that he makes every year and his vast stock portfolio. So the guy's just, again, he's a Bob Brooks is a con man and a fraudster, and we are going to make sure that everybody knows the truth about this individual. We just spoke with Stacey Garrity and on her radar screen, as you probably have seen. And I wanted to ask you in your area, she's going to do a listening tour, she told us, which I think is exactly right. Josh Shapiro has been the biggest champion. of these AI data centers just with no transparency, a lot of Amazon money. And here, probably where you are too, Ryan, but I can tell you on the ground here, Upper Marion, for example, the turnout of people opposing this, the anxiety they have about it that's not being quelled. They're just trying to shove it through is enormous. How about in the Lehigh Valley? How about where you are? We have a similar situation. We have a number of data centers that are being considered in places like Upper McCungy and the Mount Bethel area and some others up in Carbon County. And you see the same thing. I mean, Upper McCongy just recently had their hearing about a proposed data center. Massive turnout. I mean, literally overflow capacity, people standing outside the room. And the concerns are everything from not only energy usage and the potential that it drives up energy costs in a local community. It's about water usage, noise pollution, siting, permitting, lots of different concerns go into this. And so it is nice to see that people are actually voicing their opinion. They're going to these local meetings because as somebody who's been involved in government over the years, oftentimes.
local government where these decisions are made. And so often we say local government is the closest form of government to you, and they have some of the biggest impact on your lives, but all too often people overlook it. So it's great to see that people are getting engaged in these things, attending these meetings, making sure that their voices are heard because that's where the change is going to happen. Yeah, school boards COVID is the best example I can ever give on that. Where do we go to help Ryan McKenzie? We would appreciate any and all support. They can go to McKenzie for Congress.com, McKenzie for Congress.com, and we are taking on the entire Democratic establishment. Bob Brooks, it's not just Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren and Pete Buttigieg that are coming to the sum for this guy. It's all the national unions that are dumping in money. All the radical left groups, the working families party and all these other groups. The entire Democratic establishment is coming here to fight against us because they know that I defeated a Democratic incumbent last cycle. And if they want to get the majority back in this country, it's going to run straight through the Lehigh Valley. So we are going to make sure that does not happen, but we need everybody's helping support to stop this con man and fraudster of Bob Brooks. Thank you, Ryan. Thanks very much for coming on. Have a nice weekend. Thank you, Dom. You too. All right, Ryan McKenzie here on Talk Radio 1210. Just amazing stuff here with Bob Brooks, though. But I think the things, you know, Bob Menendez, why did Bob Menendez ultimately go to jail? Well, I mean, it was unbelievable the stuff he was doing. Henry, if you remember, what got the public attention? The gold bars. When you had the gold bar, the wife runs over the guy mysteriously, and she's gone on her way. Nothing too much happened. But the gold bars? Oh, yes. Got the secret compartment in his desk. Yes. Then we saw him singing to her at the Taj Mahal and all that whole thing started to be mocked. So that's how it works. By the way, the takeaway from Pam Bondi testifying today, the argument Democrats trying to put out there is she blamed Todd Blanche for what happened with the Epstein files. Okay? You knew they were going to play that card. It's smart politically. We'll see how it shakes out. But the president is in the situation room, apparently at the White House, determining maybe by the end of the day whether he'll sign off on the Iran deal. There is a deal here. Now, there are reports. There would be $300 billion in a reconstruction fund. If that's the case, I'm not on board with that. I don't think the average American is going to be. I don't know how you spend that. But coming up, the best that we can bring you. weekly visit from Dr. Victoria Coates. And we'll talk with her about sign or not sign off on this based upon what she knows. Here's how you get in. 855, 839, 12, 10, you just hit us with something that is an everyday menace. Today is National E-Bikes Day. Guy was awfully nice to call from Ben Salem. I get it. Not every person with e-bikes and all that, but there's a lot. that goes on with this, where we are, and on the boardwalk, even. That's why they passed ordinances against it. That's pretty menacing.
The back-in call was a good one so far. There have been several others, though, really insightful. Hit us with one of those. They're not going to kill you necessarily, but they just make life agonizing. 855-839. We got Dom's Money Melody 2. 839, 12-10. 839, 12-10.
