HHH Show 072926 - Hour 2

We made it to the 4 o'clock hour. Greetings and salutations. Welcome to this brand new afternoon. This afternoon has never been lived before. It's a blank canvas, if you will it. What I just do? If you will it, what is that? If you will it, so it can be your masterpiece. Here's how you do the afternoon. Think of three things for which you're grateful. And then do the afternoon with all the joy, wonder, enthusiasm. And gratitude, you can muster. Hashtag, T Y, G, turn it a. That, da, da, da, da, da, da, da. La. La.

But no, I mean, one thing I would like for you to consider doing real quick is cover some of the substance of what they were talking about. Because, you know, I've been busy today. I didn't catch much of it. But I caught that grilling where they were, and I hadn't heard this before, where it was the staffers that he had like eight staffers that were on the federal payroll on federal time, applying for grants and various unsundry things on his behalf where it was going straight into his pocketbook. I mean, that's just like one of many, many things that this guy has done. But, you know, I know there's probably something that we disagree on, and I've heard it from some of my fellow Christians that, you know, like, well, you've got to be forgiving of people, and you've got to turn the other cheek and all that stuff. And when it comes to certain individuals in this world, I have absolutely no. tendency in that direction. And there are people that are a predator class of people. And Anthony Fauci is one of these people. I want to remind you that in the 1970s, he produced HIV as part of a lab project. The whistleblower was a lady by the name of Judy Middovich. She created the gene sequence called GP120 that basically is the core of function. of HIV and she became a whistleblower on that project. And that's how HIV got released. And he experimented on 20,000 people without their knowledge creating that disease spread. And this is not conspiracy or theory. Well, it is conspiracy, but it's not theory. This went before Congress. Congress had hearings on it in the 80s on this stuff. And like you said, nothing was done. But we literally changed U.S. laws because of that. We banned our own gain of function research. We banned our own biological weapons program. And then after that, we signed an international treaty banning it, which is the reason why these companies were operating in the form of corporations that are incorporated in foreign countries like China. They would still do a little bit of, they would still do most of the research here at universities like UNC Chapel Hill, Ralph Amy Coney Barrett's program. $13 million or something like that in a grant. I can't remember the number from Anthony Fauci's NIH for the COVID virus. Then he sells it to the Institute of Verology in Wuhan, yada, yada, yada, yada. But here is my point. If we went so far as to change laws because of this man in the 80s over stuff he did in the 70s, why wasn't he like toasted then? And here is the problem with that. And that is... If you let somebody like that stay out, they do it again. They're predators. They never stop. You see what I mean? But that is my point. That is precisely my point. You tell me then what Congress is doing. If they hold the quote-unquote hearings, and they have decided that they need to pass laws as a result of the information that they've collected, and they can directly link that information to someone. Why'd they sit there? Over 111 times. Taking the news cycle. Taking the news cycle.

As the war in Iran is heating up Saudi Arabia, now joining airstrikes against Iran in a conflict that seems to be spreading. But Dr. Anthony Fauci has taken the news cycle, and I think he will take it for the rest of the day. Big meeting of the Fed today. As they looked at interest rates, we'll get to that in just a moment. What are you saying, Hallorn? I'm just saying, it's theater. Nothing's going to happen to Dr. Anthony Fauci. Nothing ever did. Sam was laying out the case. He was like, look. Book chapter verse, Senate, the Congress had hearings. They passed new laws so that we wouldn't do these things. They didn't touch him. Why? What happens to people who go to Senate hearings and get cussed out? What actually happens to them? What will the net result of today be? Right? Dr. Anthony Fauci is 85 years old. Where will Dr. Anthony Fauci be tonight? And then tomorrow and the next day.

Wide range of opinions on Dr. Anthony Fauci. For me, I'm more focused on the theater around Senate hearings and the fact that they don't amount to punishment, but they do make great video for people who are in the middle of midterm election cycles. I mean, it's a strong look when somebody that wants your vote or wants to reassure you of how conservative they are, you know, that kind of a thing, to be looking at 85-year-old Dr. Anthony Fauci and dressing him down. That has to play well in some spaces. And Dr. Anthony Fauci sitting there taking the flame thrower of their thoughts and their condemnation of him, it has the same effect on the other side. Because I'm sure there are plenty of Democrats that are just, well, I know they are because they're all over the Internet today saying how disgraceful this is that they would treat Dr. Anthony Fauci like this, blah, blah, blah. And guess what that activates? But at the end of the day, what is going to change materially for Dr. Anthony Fauci, who opponents of which want to see punished? I have a bet with old good old brother Keith, a Littance cheeseburger. Nothing. Barry, welcome to the AAA Radio Experience. Yeah, hey, Alan, I would like a lint cheeseburger, even though I don't even know what that is. Littins, Littins in Fountain City. Have you been to Littins before? Never. Oh, you got to look it up, Barry. Littins, L-I-T-T-O-N-A-P-S, Littins and Fountain City. Oh, my, my, everything they got theirs. All right. Yeah, you'll love it. Okay, well, as many times as I've been right, you know, maybe you should start giving... People that know what they're talking about of free meals. I'm just saying that because I would like to sit across from you because as many times as we've thought, I would like to meet you in real life. We should do it. We should do it. I agree. But I'm not a wealthy man. So I can't eat what you eat. Well, okay, so here's my thing. I've talked to you years ago about Anthony Fauci, and I told you he was an absolute liar, and all of that. So here's one thing, is how did he get a pardon?

and still allowed to claim the fifth. Because from my understanding was once you get a pardon, you have to answer all of the questions to, in fact, earn the pardon itself. All right. No, I don't think partons kill your constitutional rights. You still have all your constitutional rights. No, not the fifth. Not the fifth. I think you need to do a little bit of research. Not on the fifth. When it is a government worker. No. Which he was. Okay, well, okay, so I'm not going to argue with that. I assume your people will look into it and, you know, give you advice. But here's another thing. They're putting this Anthony Fauci's situation in front of the Iran. Well, we've went through this Anthony Fauci stuff like four, five, six times. And nothing's ever happened. But what the problem is, is all the stuff that's going on in Iran. And that's mostly what I'm calling in about. So we're trying to attack Iran for doing what Iran for what they do. You know, they're trying to protect their own people and blah, blah, blah, blah, and good to them. So why are we allowing these Sharia law-law Muslims in our country and letting them? do everything they want to do. And if anybody tries to argue against them, well, they go to prison or go to jail and get fined for fighting against or being called Islamist folk. So why is it that we in America have to put up with this stuff. While our government is in those actual places that are Sharia law and our actual Islamic places, we're trying to fight them while we're letting it go on in our own flipping country, our own states, everything. It doesn't make any sense. Yeah, that's going to lead into my, yeah, that's going to lead into my next topic. Barry, thanks for the call. Anthony Fauci works. Anthony Fauci's a trigger. Anthony Fauci takes the news cycle. Anthony Fauci Fouchi fires everybody up. Midterm elections, nothing happens.

I mean, nothing's going to happen to him. That's my simple point, is that it's theater. It has a purpose, though, to animate an electorate. Yeah. That Anthony Fauci stuff gets people going. Oh, gets some going. So, page two. Get to some more of your phone calls here. The number is 656-8255-85-1-8255-6-25- Talk. 1-800-9-1-8-255-5. A couple of quick notes here. I don't know where this person is, but I know this much. I am waiting for a call. Sir, you need to call me today. I wish I knew your name. I wish I had your number because I would call you. Ah, the Federal Reserve just held interest rate steady in one of the closest calls in years. The decision came at 2 p.m. today. Rates stay in a range of 3.5 to 3.75%. That's the fifth straight meeting with no change, but the vote was 9 to 3. Three regional Fed presidents wanted to raise rates to fight inflation. New Chairman Kevin Warsh running his own reshaping of the Fed summed it up this way. I asked for a good family fight, and I got one. The pressure behind the fight oil up more than 20% this month on the Iran War, pushing inflation up just as it was cooling down. So, the new Fed chairman and the Federal Reserve, And a 9-3 vote held rates steady. Caller, I need you to call, cousin Hal. You need to tell me. You owe me. You bet me. You owe me. I asked you to, as the young people say, stand on business. Or as Rush would say from time to time, business. I asked you to stand on business. You told me to book it. You guaranteed it. You said it was going down two points, 200 basis points down immediately. First act. You haven't called me yet. You hadn't said anything. I bet you won't stand on business. I guarantee you that. Not many do, though. Don't feel bad. Not many people do. All right, Monty Fritz, running for governor of the state of Tennessee. He was just here.

Spent an hour with me. I saw him in an interview on News Channel 5, I think in Nashville. It was one of the Nashville stations that interviewed him and the host that was interviewing. I may try to get a clip of this. Now, you said you want to ban all mosques in the state of Tennessee and all pagan religions. He said, yeah, that's what, you know, we need to do something. There are between 52 and 59 mosques in the state of Tennessee. There are, in East Tennessee, I think there might be three. What is the, how does one as governor go about banning a place of worship? How do you do that? Now, the reporter said the First Amendment says Congress shall make no law respecting a religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. And when he brought that up to Monty Fritz, Monty Fritz said, it says Congress can't make a law. Doesn't say anything about what a state could do. I said, but wouldn't you have a constitutional challenge? Wouldn't it be a whole thing? So I sent a text to Monty Frist, and I'm sure he's in the thick of campaigning, but I hope he'll hit me back, and I want to ask him directly. How would you go about doing this? How would that... How would that actually work? I don't think you can do it. But I do think that in the last week of early voting, saying something like that will get you what they call earned media. John Rose sitting over there on a pile of cash. He can buy as many ads as he wants. Marsha Blackburn is sitting over there on a pile of cash. She can buy as many ads on television, radio, and social media as she wants. I don't know what kind of pile of cash. Marty Fritz is sitting on, but I know if you say I'm going to ban all mosques in the state of Tennessee, you will get some earned media. You get people talking. And, by the way, If this race is coming down to who's most conservative because they believe in low voter turnout, the most active and passionate voters will show up and vote. Maybe this is the thing that if you hear that about a gubernatorial candidate, you're like, that's who I want in office, somebody that's going to come in day one and start shutting down places of worship. That's my guy. I would like to ask. Mr. Monty Fritz personally about this, whether or not that is a rhetorical flourish based on his Christian faith. Is that something he would want to do if he could pull it off, but could it actually be done by a governor? And then what does that make? Not that we have to always care so much about what the rest of the country is thinking of us, but...

How do you feel about that? Would you want a governor that went through the state and said, if you're not Christian, we don't want you in this state at all? And then how do you go about defining, as we talked about the other day, the right kind of Christian? Right? How do you... So anyway, that is going to be part of our conversation. We've got all the notes here and everything. Let's get to work. Stephen, welcome to the Triple H Radio experience. Hey, Lauren. Hey, Stephen. So. Today's an interesting day today. So for me, my big issue with Anthony Fauci, and I'll touch on that is. People forgot that under the first Trump administration, in order to not cause mass panic in the country, you have to lie to the general public in some cases. So when we didn't know anything about COVID, Anthony Fauci is going to come out there to the American people and say, look, everybody just wear masks. Like, it doesn't matter what kind of mask, just wear masks. Because that's the best information that he had as a doctor at the time.

I remember all of what happened during the deal. So you're saying that it was a function of mass panic. It was a function of how do we prevent mass panic as opposed to some type of sci-op around some other conspiracy. Yeah, because if you don't have enough information to give the general public, the best thing you can do is send out a doctor, an expert in the field, and say, hey, here's what I got. Because that's what you have to do in order to prevent mass panic. But that's my main issue itself. The other thing is with the previous caller Barry saying, oh, well, if you get pardoned and you should have to testify and you lose your Fifth Amendment rights. It is hilarious to me that people that think they know what law is has no clue what the law means. So there is a difference between a pardon and immunity. Immunity means that, hey, if you tell this information, we will grant you immunity. Pardon is car Todd Blanche, which is typically only why governors and the president of the United States can pardon you or give you clemen. That means that the flates wipe clean, all of your rights are intact. That's the difference between the two. So, so, yeah, yeah, that whole point about whether or not it eliminates your rights or gives you immunity, those are two, those are separate things. Right, they are completely different legal process. All right, and then this, this. Question about Monty Fritz saying that he wants to ban Mosque in the state of Tennessee. Yeah, if he's saying that he wants to ban all mosques at East Tennessee, then he's not a true Christian because that means that you don't have enough faith in your beliefs to go against the philosophy of someone else's belief. Be a better Christian. How about that? All right, Stephen. You only beat bad ideas with good ideas. You banning it? How many things have been tried to be banned in the history of mankind who only didn't become allowed again? Let's take just East Tennessee. We banned moonshine for how long? And it's legal? That's crazy. Moonshire is crazy. That's crazy. Monty Fritz calls me this afternoon. Maybe I should be leaning in more to the details of the whatever the thing is. I keep thinking we're in the middle of an election cycle. I think there's a war going on, and I think the Anthony Fauci hearings take our mind off the war, and the war is crazy. It's crazy what we're into. I think in a governor's race that is getting closer and closer, and you've got two candidates that are flush with cash, and you have another candidate that is popular, but needs to break through the clutter.

If you say you're going to close all the mosque and this theme of our state being under attack, I wonder if when they test the messaging, it works. The Chinese are going to buy up our farmland. We've got all these people trying to move here from somewhere else, and they're bringing their ideas and their ideology, their woke ideas. They're driving up the cost of living, so we need to keep those people out. We're under attack. Or we have Muslims and pagans in our state, and that is creating a bad situation, so we're under attack. I wonder if that moves people more than a legit conversation about how we're going to come up with the $87 billion we need. to fix and ready our infrastructure for the growth that we need, the growth that is happening, and how behind we are to begin with. And do you realize to a person, every single candidate, the Speaker of the House came on the broadcast, Cameron Sexton, and he was telling me about the Tassar report. And he said it was 90-something pages. He said, I'll send it to you. They did not send it to me. But I found it. Found it? Looked it up. Read it. Did a deep dive into it. I was like, dang. To a person, I've asked this question every time. What do we do? No one has an answer. Not one. Nary a one. Not a single person. Not an idea. And maybe the only reason we know we have a real infrastructure issue, try to go through Chattanooga or Nashville or through East Tennessee at certain times, you will see that that is a real Tennessee issue that affects our economy. It affects everything. It's a real issue. I haven't come across anybody yet that has said, I have a plan for what to do about this. What people have told me is I need to talk to the experts. We're going to get together and put a committee together and take a look at it. I don't see a candidate saying part of my platform is I'm going to take care of this issue. We're going to take care of infrastructure in the state of Tennessee. I hadn't seen one. I haven't seen one. But I don't think it's because they don't want to. I don't think you can win a, I don't think you can win a political race in today's environment on issues. You can't. You can't get people to vote, first of all, period, just off general principles. You can't get people to vote. You definitely can't get people excited off some issues. You say a term as nebulous as infrastructure. What does that mean? We need roads. But then if you say we're going to upgrade the roads, that means more people are coming. We don't want more people to come. That won't get you out to vote. That won't move you.

That won't move you. But if the state is under attack and the next governor is going to save us from the religious boogeyman or the foreign interest boogeyman or from the woke boogeyman or whoever, on the one hand, people will tell you that the state of Tennessee is the best place in the world to live. It's the greatest. On the other hand, they will tell you that we're under attack. So which is it? We are in the middle of an election cycle, folks. The thing that motivates people the most is fear. When it comes to politics, this is what it is. Senator screaming at Dr. Anthony Fauci. Oh, man, that, that's some, that's some, that's some, that's some, that's some, who, huh? That'll get your blood. You know, saying that, wait a minute, wait a minute. Wait a minute. We, um, we, um, we, we're being encroached upon by outsiders. Now we got, now you need a hero.
