Fauci vs. Paul: The Senate Hearing (Full Show)

Tom Giordano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHD. It is Dom time. Let's clear one thing up that we're all on the same page with, with this John Thune character and Corning character, and what's going on with the Save America Act. We're not talking about getting rid of the filibuster here. Let's not muddy the waters. All we're talking about is what has been precedent law forever. John Thune, you can go on Sean Hannity all that you want and get some softballs. It's about the talking filibuster. In other words, if Democrats want to filibuster, they have to talk. There are the Democrats right now. They gave up. They hung up. They don't want to talk. You know what it's like? Remember the segregationists, they ultimately gave up using the filibuster. Make them talk. That's what we need to do. It's a lie. And I'm looking here at the talking points that we're giving to Republican senators to be saying out there to all these people that don't know any better than our betters. There are 15 senators, John Thune said, who are adamantly not on board with the Save America and all this other stuff. So we got a showdown going on. I haven't checked, but I didn't see Dave McCormick's name on there yet as one of the people saying, yes, we are going to call to get this on the docket. We want to roll call vote to see every one of these weasels. Tell us, no, we're not going to do it. All right, we got great guests coming up today. Jeff Van Drew in the center ring, his committee. as subpoenaed Mikie Sherrill on the whole glitch. Henry's working on the French group. They may join us to talk about that glitch. One of these days coming up, but he'll be here today at 2 o'clock. Joe Concha, A.J. Rice with a new book that the cover is quite provocative. I showed it to you the curse of the bearded lady, how the trans mafia whacked. American sanity, okay? So, yeah, the whole trans thing and how it influences the Democrat Party is incredible. We'll get to all of those. We've got an unbelievable side of question. The side questions in the next three days, they just spilled out yesterday in a burst of creative energy. So I think they'll all be good. Wanted to talk about, before we get into that, and we get into Anthony Fauci, we got a lot of Anthony Fauci stuff today. David Zawig will be with us, Paul Zawke. He is the guy, Dan and I had on, I can remember it at the height of COVID as we were coming into the summer. He had written an article about why kids would not be allowed to be at summer camp, even though it was outdoors and you could space them, you could do all kinds of things. He's since going on to write a book about it. and the abundance of caution. And I went back. It's not just Anthony Fauci. We have to have a moment. You know, how many times have I said there's never been a reckoning on what happened during COVID? Meaning for the first month, six weeks, yes, caution, try some things. I get all that. But the people that were not only wrong, but were petty tyrants, they've never paid a price.

Anthony Fauci is petty tyrant number one that has never paid a price. Well, let me take you back to those days. Remember the rat line that was set up by Valerie Arcoosh. She's the woman that ran Montgomery County. I went back as soon as I saw the Anthony Fauci hearing will be coming up. I had the diary stuff. It's amazing. The rat line. She also had this Dr. Trittinger. that I have mocked ever since that. And if you're a sports fan at all, imagine, if you remember, they closed down the schools over Thanksgiving. They didn't go back until December. Now, this guy would never come on. He's too big of a coward, the doctor. The scientist. You know what he's cited to close down all in Montgomery County, even in Catholic schools? Wayne Gretzky. Yeah, he cited Wayne Gretzky. He said, I'm a bit of a hockey fan, and you don't go to where the puck is now, as the great Gretzky would tell us, you go to where the puck is going to be. Do you know that some of these life coaches actually use that? They frame it. They have a puck. This doctor, you don't go to where the puck is now. It's like Wayne Gretzky whispering, you go to where the puck is going to be. I say close down those schools. You'll have a hat trick. That's what we went through here. Our own Bill Deblen, if he's listening, I didn't check. Remember, we got him, and since the Catholic Church wouldn't even hear people, their ministers couldn't hear people about getting a religious exemption, First Amendment around the vaccine. Bill Develyn jumped into the ring and did it with over 100 people. So there's a lot of family business to unpack here when it comes to Anthony Fauci. Now, Cheltenham, Benjamin Netanyahu is meeting with President Trump today. So is Volodymyr Zelensky. We ought to listen to Volodymyr Zelensky, by the way. You know, I'm not proud if I could win at anything and somebody knows something. I'm not going to say, well, I just know better. I'm going to listen to them and I'm going to steal a little bit of it. These Ukrainians know drones. He seems to want to get into attacking Iran from Ukraine. Let him. That's great. Maybe he can do something that hasn't been done. Not sure about that, but I'm open to it. All right. Cheltenham, Benjamin Netanyahu. On Twitter, people are putting up the same thing I was thinking this morning. Cheltenham High School used to be, in my estimation, I'm not sure if I could give you the time. I used to do stuff. Who are the most accomplished people that went to your high school? Think of your own high school. Henry, you're Radner, right? Downingtown. Oh, Downingtown. Who's the most accomplished, famous whatever in Downingtown? From my school? Yeah. Muffet McGraw. Oh. Hall of Fame women's basketball coach, Notre Dame. Okay. All right. Yeah, that's prominent. No scientist. Nobody split the atom. Not as far as I know. All right. Now, Newman, it's unfair because South Philly. There's a million, you know, people in show business, entertainment. Bill Cosby used to be claimed by three schools. Germantown, I think Cheltenham, and I forget the other one, because he moved around from school to school. Oh, the Cos went here. He may have. I don't know if he graduated from there. My point being Cheltenham, I once was in the dunk tank for Rizzo's.

It was a day that wasn't too warm. I'm telling you, when I get out of that dunk tank, because they let them throw it to raise a lot of money from a distance of like seven or eight feet. It's freezing and dirty after a while. I go inside to try to towel off, and I see their Hall of Fame. Mark Levin is in there. The second doctor who did the heart transplant, not the first, but the second, is in there. Reggie Jackson, Mr. October. is in there, and the Benjamin Netanyahu brothers. I'm saying that because Cheltenham has fallen a long way. They're on the front page of the paper today from one of these hazing incidents in the football locker room that's pretty severe to put it mild. The mom says, my son still has to go there. It's very difficult to recover. And yet that school recently within the immediate pass. has been making moves to kick Benjamin Netanyahu out of their Hall of Fame. Yeah. Let's kick Benjamin Netanyahu out of their Hall of Fame. It's stunning. And every time he visits here, like in Washington, I think of Cheltenham. And over the years, the last four or five years, at least, you've seen how they've gone downhill. They are not a premier school in the area. I'd have to think what is the premier school based upon academic achievement in the area. A little bit unclear at this point. But when you take a look at a school, some of the New York schools, and you see the accomplished people that came through there, they're like, wow, this is pretty difficult. And Cheltenham has a great Hall of Fame. Let's kick Benjamin Netanyahu out of there. All right, those are some of the preliminary thoughts coming up. I have, by the numbers, Dr. Anthony Fauci's diary. In other words, the number of times that he mentioned various things in his diaries that we've seen so far, and what they tell us about the man, you know, what was he repeatedly mentioning in his diaries? We know now, based on the diaries. He had these one-on-one dinners with Jake Tapper and Dana Bash calling him a superhero. Remember all that stuff? It is amazing. He bragged about shutting down schools in the diary, the power that he had. Will there be a reckoning? The biggest part of this is he knew because he had a hand in it where the virus came from. The other, I was thinking of my top 10 list of COVID. The other thing is, the number one thing, it underlined the Chinese would murder all of us in a heartbeat if they could. They're the existential threat to the world. And he aided and abetted the Chinese. Now, is Rand Paul the guy to joust with him tomorrow? I'd say Robert F. Kennedy Jr.. might be better, but Rand Paul is a doctor. I doctor. which, you know, doctor, doctor. And he and Anthony Fauci, oh, the antagonism. He fixated on fame as the death rose. I'm the most famous person in the country. He writes in his diary. All right, let me give you the side. What is it? We're 98 days now. We started this yesterday, remarking the countdown to the midterms. So we want.

something associated with countdowns, like an all-time countdown. I'll give you an example, or a person. The person I most associate, I have two with countdowns, are Dick Clark, Mr. New Year's Eve, and... Aroldo, the countdown to the Capone safe and the wine bottles in there. I could, you know, Orodo and I are very friendly, even though we've joustead over stuff, he is quite a character. But I'm told, Tom, don't bring up the Capone thing. You know, he's a guy that throws caution to the winds until it comes to that. He doesn't want to hear about the Capone thing. And I'll also take off, let's see, Y2K. The countdown to Y2K at WWDB was unbelievable. I'm sitting there. I was coming over. This stuff surreptitious, right? I was moving from there to hear secretly. And we're at a lunch with the guru of guru, Tom Bigby, who ran WIP. He created. I mean, he found it. Guy talk. That's what he. I don't want to hear scores. I want to hear Guy talk. He once threatened to fire a producer. If the next call, to me, sounded more than two minutes. That was two minutes, but sounded. So the guy hesitated at a minute and a second. Good night, everybody, right out. The producer standing in like Kirk. He comes in there with the executor right there. He was body on the floor. Now continue. No more two minute calls. So he's sitting there and he gets a call from the head. This was CBS station. He had the transmitter. I'm not going to the transmitter because of Y2K. Right in the middle of a big steakhouse lunch and all big, yeah, that's crazy. Yeah, yeah. So I know Y2K was unbelievable. I got some of the others too, but you're not going to win with them. They're pedestrian. But how about yours, Henry? Yeah, this first one I'm going to take off its countdown, but it's more of a subjective kind of countdown. The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists are the one to determine when this clock will end up going to zero. But right now, our Doomsday clock is 85 seconds to midnight. That seems like a lot. Usually they have it like one second. Well, no, this is the closest it's ever been to midnight. Oh, is it? Yeah. When Trump gets out of office, suddenly, ah. Right, yeah. Now you've got a few minutes now. You got six years to doomsday. Don't worry about doomsday. You got nothing to worry about. Yes, I shoot back to me in like, I don't know, 1 p.m. or something. And then the other one I'm going to take off is the final few seconds of the Miracle on Ice, February 22nd, 1980. Of course, Al Michael's on the call, but you can hear the crowd in the background. counting down the final 10 seconds as the U.S. pulls one of the most stunning upsets in the history of sports, upsetting the Soviet Union in the Olympics and a men's ice hockey. Those countdowns when you're holding on for dear life. Oh, yeah. Oh, man. You know you're not the better team. Hold and everyone around you. Yeah, you're shaking. Yeah, exactly. Tears in your eyes. One second left. How about yours, Kirk? I'm going to go with two. I'm going to go with the NASA countdown clock to launch. Yes, that's a great one. Second.

The original, I think the original music countdown show, Casey Kasem's America's top 40 before Ryan Seacrest ruined it. And then Rolling Stone, I don't like, you know, I don't like their politics, but they have the 500 greatest rock songs. Oh, yeah. In history, that kind of count them. Yeah, I like those too. All right. Thank you, Mike C. Yes, Central was the other school with Cosby. Only thing on that, Central has gone downhill to. It's gone downhill for the last 30 or 40 years. That used to be very difficult to get into. I wouldn't say Central is the number one thing of anything. You know, I could take a random bunch of people from Central. I'm not putting them into the math Olympics or they just general trivial or whatever. No way. What's the number one school right now? That you would say is the most accomplished. Is it lower Marion? That's usually what comes of mind. But maybe they're overrated. Maybe it is Downingtown. All right. Not bad. We got a Hall of Famer there. I got to separate myself. I didn't go to one of the Downingtown High schools. I went to Bishop Shanahan. Oh, okay. Different school. Okay. Who's the most accomplished from Shanahan? Muffin McGraw. Oh, okay. That's what you're saying. Okay. All right. 855, 839, 12, 10, you can get in. There is something about a few of those New York schools. They have like rocket scientists, and then they have like Hall of Fame players, that kind of thing. Sheltonham had the Benjamin Netanyahu's, Mark Levin, the Heart Doctor, and the two Netanyahus, and people like that. I don't think you're going to see any from there in the near future. Why is it? What is it that drive some schools where it's a parent and then they go downhill? All right, you can hit us at 855, 839, 12, 10. Coming up, Stephanie Ruhl from MS now or not now, talking about the funeral today, Lindsey Graham, and she brings up John McCain, will play it for you, her take on Lindsey Graham and John McCain in the afterlife. What? 855-839-12-10. Tom Chierdano on Talk Radio 1210, W-P-H-H-T. It is Domtime, 855-839-1210. Yeah, Reggie Jackson. I did say Reggie Jackson. Oh, you did? Okay, I'm sorry. Thank you. Yes. I was trying to show the... Just think about that. It was the second doctor for the heart transplant early on. And Christian Bernard, I think, was the first guy was just the second behind. Not one, but two Netanyahus. Mark Levin, Reggie Jackson. And I think her name was Norma Josh Shapiro. When I broke in, she was the most villain of talk radio. She was in the Hall of Fame. She was this judge who wanted to let out. She was like the Larry Krasner of her time and was always saying, oh, overcrowded. Henry needs more space in his bunk there in prison. Her can't be in there with him. That's it. Overcrowded. And vicious criminals were let on the street because of her. But she made it into their Hall of Fame. They were proud of that. I'm saying that because, yeah, there was a movement to get rid of Benjamin Netanyahu. And yet, when you look.

And the spokesperson makes the point, what if a mayor put out all the people on food benefits, public housing, snap, and say, gosh, these are the people who make me pay high tax rates because there's so many people in the public dole. People would be horrified, right? Well, think about it. You know, arguably, some of these people, let's face it, are unworthy. They shouldn't be getting all this. But why would you put the name out there of these rich people and their physical address to shame them? And the number one thing I think about is not just some sort of physical attack, but if they have kids and people think there's money, kidnapping is the thing that comes in mind. You know, I'm sure many of them have protection, but you don't want to be putting out there physical address. in addition to everything else. I mean, it's dangerous stuff this guy's engaged in. All righty, 855, 839, 12, 10. Hit us with that all-time countdown is what we're looking for as we count down toward the midterms. By the way, John Cornyn goes after Mike Lee, who's leading to charge to say, you're not getting a recess, you should vote. And he accused, it's one thing he accused Senator Lee of trying to be a social media butterfly. But then he says, John Cornyn, the guy from Texas, Lee is demoralizing our base. No, buddy. You know nothing about the base. That's why you're no longer a senator. Mike Lee is much more in touch with the base than you are. All right, let's go to David in Lexington. David's on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, David. Hey, Dom. Happy Tuesday. How are you doing? Good, David. Thank you. I haven't taught you much lately, but I've thought of bringing in on this one. But real quick, as far as famous people, my dad actually taught both of these people. I would say the biggest celebrity, and I have a very young high school, so relatively we don't have as many alumni. But my father taught Azy Earhart, and as far as athletes go, I would say Peter Bolwer, who played the NFL with the Ravens. Oh, he's a good player too, yeah. Yeah, and who was the first one, Amelia Earhart? No, no, Aesley. Oh, Ainsley. I was going to say, what the heck? I thought I heard of me. Well, that's pretty good. Ainsley could interview Ballard. Yeah, he's a good player. That's true. Yeah. Yeah. So now for my side answer, and this happens every time I come to Pennsylvania, or really all of us can relate to any long trip. You know, let's say you've got a multiple 100-mile drive or something. How many more miles? 83 more miles. My goodness, my goodness, it's never going to get there. So counting down. the miles on a long road trip. Absolutely. That is a very, very good one, particularly if it's a thousand mile trip. So it could be a general one, a general sort of countdown, okay? 855, 839, 12, 10, you get a line. Quarter to five in some jobs on a Friday or something like that. Five of five, you know, the countdown starts, the coats are, the office.

Hit us with that. Let's see. Do I have any others ones we didn't get? Yeah, the New Year's Countdown, Capone, Clark. Cape Canaveral, Kirk had that. The Nassau Countdown, that is one of the most famous. I have a winner. I just don't know if I want to say it yet. I want to see if someone else can get it. Oh, okay. Tell me during the break. We'll see if it's a winner. Yeah. This isn't outside the box. There's a million of them. You just have to hit on the right one and get your name into the hat. All right, coming up, one of our favorites, Joe Concha from Fox News. We'll talk with him about the president's. stuff at the White House Correspondence Dinner. But in addition to that, he's got an upcoming book, and I want to ask him about Anthony Fauci and how he handicaps this, what he sees in the Anthony Fauci Diaries. We have not had a reckoning on COVID. Tom Wolf was one of the worst. Wolfman Hack. The stuff that he did awarding winners in some businesses, losers and others. Wally Zimelong, our attorney came on and pro bono took on several businesses. One was a pool company. It was only five miles separated. One could operate the other could. Remember all that? All the nonsense they came up with? Why? Rachel Levine. There you go. One of the real villains of the whole scenario. All right. That's all. Straight ahead. Hit us at 855, 839, 1210. Dom Chiodano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. It is Dom time. Welcome in in the On Deck Circle, one of our favorites. Joe Concha will unpack several things. Joe recently said at the SAVAC Falls, we are broken as a government. And where we stand right now with John Thune trying to lie his way through this. Here is John Thune. I think we have that one. John Thune with Sean Hannity last night. Yes, this is cut 12. Here's what he told Sean Hannity. What's going on and why we can't get the Save Act? Cut 12. I know the president has leaned on you hard. He's leaned on Mike Johnson hard. You have very slim majorities. You know, in terms of his priorities, what percentage of those do you believe you can have done before the midterm elections? Because he's got a lot on his wish list. He does. I mean, the main thing he wants, Sean, as you know, is the Save America Act. And that is something where... I like I said, we've had multiple votes on it now. Not a single Democrat has voted for it. I think we continue to put them on the record, but we've had five different votes on it already. If we can get a chance to vote on it again, the best way to do that would be in a budget reconciliation bill. And that would enable us not only to do, to get a vote on that in some form. It's not going to be everything the president wants, but also do something with the military where we desperately need to.

ensure that our military has everything they need to deter and defend our country and particularly with what's going on in the middle east right now um and there's some stuff in there for for agriculture it's a bill the house passed and it's it's no easy feat the senate we don't have 50 votes for it today but hopefully we can get there getting rid of the filibuster non-starter you don't have the votes well we don't and i and i've actually told i've had this conversation with the president many times i think as you know um And I actually suggested at one point that his team come up and sit down and visit with some of my colleagues. So they came up, met with about 20 Republican senators and 15 were no on getting rid of the filibuster. The votes aren't there to do it. I know he thinks he can persuade people, but there are a lot of folks who are very, this is a hard position for a lot of Senate Republicans. All right. Majority Leader, soon. Good to see you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. All right. We're not talking about getting rid of the filibuster. We're talking about making them do the real filibuster. That's all. Let's make them do it. Oh, well, there's another prior. You're going to be in recess. Stop it already. It looks really bad politically, but they're so driven these rhinos, these faceless GOP senators. I don't think they care. We'll say, well, you can't take a recess. You can't go on vacation. When Corning is saying this demoralizes our base, does it? All right, let's go to the Earl of Techconi. I like this one a lot. Hey, Earl, good afternoon. Afternoon, Dom. Yeah, this one I thought about after going to the Chicago Sticks concert last Wednesday. It's not a countdown. It's a count up. Usually it's something that the drummer does, you know, ch-ch. And that would be the musical four count that musicians do, where the lead singer will go, one, two, three, four. And, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. Exactly. Exactly. Yeah, that's it. The count up is, well, we have a count and tape and inside stories. I always count backwards, but I don't know, it seems more professional than the count I just, but that's right. That's a countdown or up. 855, 839, 12, 10. They both work. Here is Megyn Kelly talking about the Anthony Fauci Diaries, and I'll give you some of the numbers in here and what they represent about what he was engaged in. Cut 5, Megyn Kelly. He writes, had dinner over at Jake Tapper and Jen Tapper's home in D.C. Terrific couple. Friendship building. Again, so weird. When in your life, Victor? You and I got to know each other. When you're running home, putting down in your diary was I? Friendship building. No, that normal people don't behave like that, unless they're users, right? Which clearly he was. Then Tapper, the most revealing aspect of these pages, writes the Rand Paul team, or how Anthony Fauci worked with compliant journalist to shape media narratives. On July 26th, 2020, while watching the Assistant Secretary for Health and a fellow member of the White House Task Force be interviewed on CNN State of the Union, Anthony Fauci writes that the assistant secretary for health was...

talking bullshit about testing with Jake pressing him. Quote, I gave Jake some questions to ask him. And then Tapper and he were making fun of Laura Ingram of Fox News. After my Laura Ingram hit, Jake Tapper texted me saying sarcastically, quote, hard to believe Laura Ingram went to Dartmouth, isn't it? All of us alumni are very proud. What the hell? He's, this is a. A federal official whom he should be cross-examining and pressing and cynical of and pessimistic about. That's what you get paid to do. Now, chum, chum, we Dartmouth alum can't stand Laura Ingram. All of it is so stomach turning. Oh, God. All right, here are a few by the numbers of the Anthony Fauci Diaries. The number of times he mentioned peer review, meta-analysis, risk benefit, learning loss. Mental health, not once in these vast diaries. The number of times he mentioned N95, zero prevalence, cost benefit once. Number of times he mentioned cloth mask, school closure, natural immunity in his diaries twice. The number of times he mentioned awards he was getting or wanted to get 80. Number of times he mentioned Hero in reference to himself, 49. Number of times he mentioned all the Instagram stuff, 36. The number of times he mentioned the bobblehead doll, 23. Number of times he mentioned all these selfies with famous people 19. And the number of entries had it press, meaning the media, 641.

interesting diaries. What do they tell us? Well, those numbers, by the numbers, give us the sense of what was going on here with Anthony Fauci. Okay, phone lines are 855, 839, 12, 10. We've gotten some good ones, some great ones on Twitter. Henry thinks he has a winner, he told me. We won't take it off yet. All-time countdown or count up, you know, the counting thing as we count down to the midterms. And I think it's six or seven senators are going to bring it up. They want a roll call vote who wants to go on recess rather than doing their work and trying to pass the Save America Act. Politico says it will be a cruel summer for these Republicans to have to deal with this. They know they'll never get it passed. They won't do it. But the most curious comment is John Cornyn. saying that Lee and people like Scott Presler, they're demoralizing the base. The debate is already moralized by you get demoralized. This is something that might pump them up. Jeff Van Drew is here at two today. He is going to have that one-on-one. He subpoenaed Mikie Sherrill on what went on here in Jersey. All right, Gary in Newtown is next on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Gary, afternoon. Good afternoon, Dom. I was going to go with something like to count out the countdown, but I want to go back to a night that is remembered in history is February 11th, 1990, and the guy had 50 wins. 44 of them by knockout. We all know, I think, for you for sure have mentioned this guy multiple times on the show. His first knockout where the 10 count laid him on the mat was against Buster Douglas. And that would be, so Mike, my answer is Mike Tyson and the 10 count, his first 10 count on the mat. That's a great one. shocking to me. I mean, he had to be way off God on the news, you know. And I did interview Mike Tyson once. I found him to be very smart, if not brilliant. truly the answers the type of stuff there were no handlers etc you learn a lot just when you're getting ready you can tell they're doing interview after interview so there's some space you know you can hear them a little bit you develop it and michael vick the same thing i very positive toward michael vick i know that's shocking but i think it's been proven out uh joe cons uh indisposed i'm not sure what's going on but uh we'll reschedule with him Still want him to get them on to talk about any number of things. We're going to talk, though, with Jeff Van Drew at 2 o'clock. A.J. Rice, serious guy, but very comedic, has this new book out, The Curse of the Bearded Lady, how the trans mafia whacked American sanity. How is it that such a small group has exerted so much power? Driving, think of the drivers of all this train stuff. Think of how far Democrats have gone. The Trump people, 2024, they told me several of them, they spent $44 million on those ads around trans with Kamala Harris. I would have spent, bro, whatever we can get, we'll get it back. If we win, you can decorate the White House. I don't care what it is. Give me a billion dollars. I'm going to run nothing else. And these voters.

We'll go, wait a minute. You're putting men out there against girls or boys against girls? Yeah, which party's doing that? I want to vote now. That got my attention. All right, hit me with some more. We've got some great ones so far. 855-839-1210. Tom Chierdano on Talk Radio 1210. W-P-Ht. All right, Domchir-Dano show, 855-839, 1210. That's how you do it. Get on board. Hit us with some kind of countdown, something with numbers as we're trying to reach some goals, some kind of timing thing as we tell you 98 days to the midterms. 855, 839, 12, 10. So I went back and pulled with this Zohran Mamdani five public stores. They did this in Kansas City. And after a short period of time and a lot of investment, they had to pull the store in Kansas City. Things got so bad, the employees were carrying or allowed to carry their own tasers. I didn't know how to go to a supermarket. And a taser, it jumped out of me. They buried the headline. It should have been a big headline. And what did they say the problem was, first of all, they showed the shelves. Bread. One loaf that looks like it was left there, the mold growing right on the ground. And then they panned over to the produce. Oh, man. Zohran Mamdani can stand there with all those plantains he wants. You know how bad this is going to be, and he's undercutting the other stores. So a guy, Paul McAllister on Twitter, a few very obvious points on Zohran Mamdani's grocery stores. The supply of the discounted grocers will run out on day one, and every day there's a new shipment. This is Basic Econ 101. This means only the people who are lucky enough or fast enough will get these discounted groceries. Expect to see the city ration those groceries in some other way by income or neighborhood or some lottery system. Grocery margins are notoriously low. He says 2%. I've heard 1%. These stores will lose a bunch of money selling 30% below market, or they'll sell so little it will be insignificant. Point four, there's absolutely zero chance that government bureaucrats can source these products from global supply chains lanes, as Whole Foods does or Walmart, whose survival depends on it. Their costs will be five, times, 10 times higher. Point five, it's actually an incredible triumph of capitalism. You can get a pound of bananas that were shipped to your neighborhood from Ecuador for like 60 cents or fresh grapes from Chile and the debt of a Midwestern winner for two bucks a pound. Norwegian salmon, he goes on to talk about this. So those stores are going to be able to do any of this? And the answer is not. You cannot. As they said, each month, we plan, we set it, that's it, 30% off of whatever the surrounding market is. And then we do it again next month. It doesn't work that way. I can't wait. You know, I know you're not supposed to pray for failure, but I do. I pray for this guy failure every single step he takes. But the upside of Zohran Mamdani, again.

Run against him. Run against this stuff. And every one of them that's DSA, et cetera, that are in their party. I mean, printing not only the property owner's names that are going to pay these shameful taxes, but their addresses. They have kids where they live, that type of stuff. That's chilling, isn't it, given the way things operate today? All right, 855, 839, 12, 10. That's how you get in. Hit us with that all-time countdown. And tomorrow, I guess they start at 10 a.m. We'll have full coverage. We'll have sound of Rand Paul. We have David's Away, so Weig, coming up. Paul. I don't know. I keep on who the day. Yeah, it is, Dave. They're all over the place. Yeah, I don't know why. I've changed his name three times. And he came on at the height of COVID in the summer talking about some of these restrictions on summer camps, et cetera, that were beyond ridiculous. He's going on to write the abundance of caution. He's the best we're going to find that documents what was going on here. So what can be done with Anthony Fauci? Well, he does have the pardon. Is that pardon legit? How far could this go? At least some reckoning of this guy. Who else do you say was one of the villains of COVID? And look at some of the things that have come out of it. Look at how these fraudulent public schools have taken Zoom and Chromebooks. And now suddenly, we don't need any snow days. We'll just declare everything off whenever we want and get away with it. Think about what America learned seeing these alleged classes. Think of how Randy Weingarten, principally, kept schools closed when the CDC was ready to open them up. Why would she do that? Power. That's what it's about. Think of all the stuff. It seems comical now, like supermarket lanes. Bad arrows you're pointing down this way and then the next one comes back that way. Don't buck the line. Don't engage in. Just thinking about the itchiness of the mask. It's like Newman with the fleas. You can hold it in for a second. Just think about all those things. There's also the allegation. I think it'll come up tomorrow. that Dr. Anthony Fauci did not fully reveal a couple of the things, at least one, that could be a side effect of the vaccine. And he got that side effect, but he was able to get elite care, and the argument is it was covered up. So even though he suffered from it, nobody knew until we had his diary now. Man, who keeps a diary like this in public? I don't know. I have to go back of how they got it, how they subpoenaed it, how this was available. But what a showdown tomorrow. It's a showdown over all those things that were done. Some of them right here in the Delaware Valley. Wolfman Hack, the governor, was one of the worst. I told you, we had people calling in, you may remember, I did a Saturday show just on this. And they were calling in saying, how come I'm closed?

But store X in my field, only five miles away, is open. One was a swimming pool company. And while he Zimelong, jumped into the ring and fought for them, our lawyer. So this is kind of an intent. Think of the Ivermectin making us believe that Ivermectin was just used with animals, not humans. We got the hydrochloroquine. all those things back and forth around this. Now, I commend Trump for getting a vaccine through, but some of the repercussions of it are still being felt today. And it had a large impact on electing Joe Biden, who if he couldn't hide in the basement allegedly because of COVID, I don't think ever would have been elected. So the devastation brought by the Chinese with this is the other aspect to it. I'm not sure how long the testimony is tomorrow. What really would be ideal is a whole week of testimony on this. I never get, well, we don't have time. Oh, stop it with your time. Stop all your nonsense. This ought to be in detail after detail. Some of these things I just mentioned with Anthony Fauci alone. could take hours. Remember, you have all these other people questioning, too, and Democrats trying to jump in front of the train. Okay, they can jump in front of it, but the train ought to be 10 hours every day, if not more. You get a bathroom break, eat your sandwich at your desk, and continue to answer. All right, let's go to Joe of X. Joe is on Talk Radio 12. Penn. Hey, Joe, good afternoon. Oh, yes, hello, Don, and good afternoon. For my side answer, the 12 months of the year serve to remind mankind of the change in seasons. All right, that is a countdown. Absolutely, Joe. And we all know what the best season of the year is and where the countdown happens. Summertime in the living is easy. You don't go winter in the living is easy. You don't go fall. All those sweaters and bonfires, you can have them. Right. I got summer and the living time is easy. Oh, of course they do. Oh, women's fashions come out. They're always deadly because they're covered up. Summer, they're uncovered. I'm winning on this. Somebody say something for fall, Henry Robert F. Kennedy Jr.. I mean, look, I agree with you on the summer thing. I'm not going to take up for fall. Except if I were to, you know, you could go, oh, pumpkin spice this or whatever. Or else you got football. That's right. Pumpkin spite. They never say football these people. Pumpkin spice, bonfires, and sweaters. Oh, I feel a chill coming on. Oh, boy. Yeah, they like the chill. And spring used to be a contender, but spring is so short. I don't even know what spring anymore. Essentially. Yeah, May might be. That's about it. Okay, coming up, we're going to talk with David Zawig. He's a journalist, author, The Book, An Abundance of Caution. We first had him on when we were talking about. camp, summer camps during COVID. And it was unbelievable a response to David. He's going on now to be really a chronicler, I'd say, of COVID. He's next on Talk Radio 12-Tap. Tom Giudano, weekdays, noon till 3, from Talk Radio 1210, WPHD. Tom Geordano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHD.

All right, it is Dom time. One of the reasons why tomorrow is so important with Rand Paul is, will he be able with these new diaries to actually get to the truth, to the things that people thought and remember happened during COVID? And Dr. Anthony Fauci is one of the one, two, or three principles, if not the principle, along with these complicit journalists. who fueled a lot of things that just were not true, and they knew it after particularly the Chinese connection. It wasn't the wet markets. How many times did we hear that? Well, the guy that Dan and I happened upon, I think it was this summer. By the way, just one fact, Mulligan's plays into this. Jeff Van Drew was changing parties. That was part one. So if you remember, he got President Trump to come and do that whole thing at the Wildwood Convention Center. And we were perched at Mulligan's. Now, Henry, you have to imagine this is just days before, literally days. I don't. Couldn't be more than three or four. Right, yeah. We got the word, uh-oh, take cover. That's it. Go home. And listeners should know by now, Mulligans, you hear when that crowd's in there. You know, it's not a giant space. And I remember Rich was on mornings. I was following nine to noon that. Boy, how things change. And I remember just seeing all the Bloody Mary's and hundreds of people packed into Mulligans right there. before the announcement, literally dates. They even turned on the hot water at DeBalero, the guy told us, because Trump was coming to town. The stoplights were on, the whole thing. All right, our guy throughout this has been David Zawig, and David is a journalist, author, and the author of the book, Abundance of Caution. We used to kid him every time he was on, when is that book coming? It's out, and it is the best bet. to take a look back at all portions of this. Let's bring David back in for kind of a preview tomorrow. David, how have you been? It's been quite a while. Thanks for joining us. Thanks for having me back. Well, I don't know if you remember that. You do hundreds of interviews, but Dan and I definitely did. It was about summer camps and the ridiculous. I don't know which publication you wrote it for. And people just latched on to that because... By that point, we had a little bit more knowledge about COVID. You know, the first six weeks or so, I get it. It was scary. When did you think that these things are a bit off? In other words, you know, the science, we have to give a period to see what works. When did it occur to you and what was it? I would say it occurred to me. in April of 2020. So in March, when everything began, I sort of followed along with what the CDC and other authorities were telling us. I had my natural skepticism to some degree, but I wasn't particularly adversarial in my thinking about any of this. And however...

We were told that we needed 15 days to slow the spread. That the purpose was to prevent hospitals from being overwhelmed. I live just outside New York City. And by the middle of April, or sometime in the middle of April, cases in New York and hospitalizations began to fall off a cliff. You can see graphs of this and look it up. It was available at the time, and it's available now. So I thought, great, the kids are going to go back to school. We did it. We followed the instructions, and it worked. Everything's going down. And instead, what happened was they said, We need another 30 days. We're going to extend this. Right. And that's when the alarm bells went off for me. Something's very wrong here. And in particular... that no one, as far as I could tell, in the media, certainly not in any kind of prestige outlets, was saying anything. It was quite an extraordinary moment that I would ask your listeners just to try to think back and remember to. The entire American public was told 15 days. And when those 15 days expired... They just moved right on to another 30 days. There was basically zero dissent, zero investigations, you know, and in a place like the New York Times or whatever, where they have enormous resources. As far as I could tell, as a citizen reading it, there was no resources at all. put toward actually finding out what's going on here. Yeah, absolutely. And at that point in time, David, you remember for listeners, the genius, the guy on how to handle things, was touted. His press conferences were covered nationally many days. Governor Andrew Cuomo. That's right. Yeah, Andrew Cuomo, he's one of the, for lack of the better word, villains in my book, abundance of caution. But Andrew Cuomo, along with, I would just say, the larger kind of Democrat apparatus, and then along with Anthony Fauci, that one of the things that I think is very interesting to explore is the connection or interplay. between certain elite institutions within our country. And we are told that the press is this, you know, fourth estate and, you know, typically is supposed to be adversarial to government and to other sort of powerful entities. But what I documented extensively was not an adversarial nature, but rather a complete...

sort of working in unison between the mainstream media, between the Democratic establishment, and between the public health establishment. And what I argue is that this was an incredibly dangerous scenario to be in, especially during a crisis like the pandemic. And the diaries point to that with Dana Bash superhero and the dinner with Jake Tapper here. They point to exactly what you're talking about. David, you know my background getting into this is a teaching and I do a podcast in School Choice now. And the schools were one of the biggest areas of this complicity. CDC was ready to say, all right, enough already. Randy Weingarten, we had the emails, intervenes, and bang, we're still back to dragging this on. The learning loss, the only good thing is parents saw what was going on in schools, and it has fueled a lot of pushback, I think. Yeah, I think you're right on that. You know, and I was mentioning the sort of powerful institutions from, you know, legacy media outlets to democratic political establishment to public health establishment. One of the ones I left out is are the teachers unions. Yes. And again, yeah, this sort of complicity and, and. you know, almost conspiracy in the sense of it wasn't secret, but in the sense of operating in tandem was so stark and so bold. because they could get away with it and no one or few people in power or influence cared. So when the American Academy of Pediatrics put out their initial guidance, which more or less said get the kids in school no matter what. They even in an interview, one of the heads of the AAP said, don't worry about the six feet of distancing. you know, if it needs to be, you know, five feet or four feet, whatever, get the kids in school, that's more important. Well, as soon as Trump tweeted that he wanted all the schools to open, the American Academy of Pediatrics completely revised its guidance. And saying that, you know, don't get kids in school. We need all sorts of things to happen. We need money. But the thing that is often lost in what happened with that revised guidance was not just the content, but who the authors of the guidance were. And the AAP, American Academy of Pediatrics, co-authored this guidance with...

the two largest teachers unions in the country. Yeah. That is, and just, just an astonishing moment. So that's the thing that's so, upsetting and dangerous about it you know and then when you think about fouchy as this kind of de facto leader amid all this um it will be very interesting to see how this plays out um with with Rand Paul any thoughts on in addition to this book upon your big book abundance of caution with these diaries and tomorrow's testimony I think it just show, I mean, it's kind of a remarkable document, this diary, but only insofar as it just gives solid evidence or additional evidence to what we all have already seen. You know, Anthony Fauci did thousands of interviews. There's this infamous cover. I think the magazine's called In Style, where he's wearing a suit and sunglasses like lounging beside a pool. So we... observed this narcissism and kind of like fame, you know, megalomania within this man. So we didn't need to see it in the diaries. We already have empirical evidence, but now seeing it in the diaries, I mean, this guy had entry after entry where he, there was something where he had a Zoom call with a bunch of celebrities, and he listed, like, the names of 20 different movie stars and others on the Paul. I mean, what kind of... man who's in his late 70s in his diary. While he's managing a pandemic is taking the time to carefully write down, you know, the name of every celebrity who's on this Zoom with him. And he does this over and over in the diary where he's very careful to mention the names of the famous people who are on a call with him, who are at a particular party. This is a man who is clearly... And this is not me being an armchair psychologist. You can just look at it. This is a man who cared deeply about his own fame. Without a doubt, any heroes in abundance of caution.

There are, and the heroes are somewhat unlikely people in that the few heroes who I note are sort of everyday physicians, a small number of them and researchers and a couple researchers outside of public health who took it upon themselves to... do studies, often at their own expense, they didn't get a grant from the NIH or anyone else. They just said, this needs to happen. And two of the heroes in the book is a physician named Weston Branch Ellman, who was at Harvard Medical School at the time, and Emily Oster, who's an economist, who is at Brown. And they said, this six feet of distancing thing, there's no evidence this is beneficial at all. But the CDC won't change its guidance, despite the fact that millions of kids were in school in Europe who were not six feet apart. Exactly. So they took it upon themselves. They said, we need to run a study. And they did the study in Massachusetts and where they compared schools that were adhering to six feet of distancing and schools that did not require it. And lo and behold. There was no difference in the outcomes of cases of COVID. It didn't matter. Now, we are, again, this is sort of like the Anthony Fauci as a fame horror person. You could observe this anyway, but all you had to do is look at Europe. We had a sort of natural experiment, but for the people who refused to look, okay, we're going to now have to provide concrete proof. And they did it. And because of them. The CDC was ultimately forced to cry uncle. And once their study came out and was published, very shortly, very after the CDC much, much, much belatedly finally eased office six foot of distancing requirement. And that enabled... tens of millions of kids to go back to school. It had nothing to do with the virus being different or anything else. And I'll add, I'll tell you one other important footnote to this. The only reason that they were able to conduct this study is because the governor of Massachusetts at that time, was a Republican and was not listening to the CDC guidance. He chose to go against the CDC and did not require every school in his state to do 60 distancing. So it was like a catch 22. All the states were told you and regular people, you have to follow the CDC. If you don't, you're a piece of garbage, you're immoral, how could you? But the only way to actually prove that the CDC was wrong and didn't have evidence for what they were saying was to go against the CDC. So it took the courage of this governor didn't follow along that actually even allowed this to happen. If everyone had just done what they were told, we never would have gotten the proof because they wouldn't have been able to run the experiment. Well, I want to thank you because I think it was one of our conversations. We did have Oster on and being at Brown.

That was pretty bold. I guess she's tenured all, but still, to be at academia and to be that driving force, it really, really mattered. The book is out in paperback now. What else can you tell us available everywhere, David? It should be available everywhere, certainly online, easy to order. But the book very much is a document about what happened, but it also is not about the pandemic in a way that's just the scaffolding. It really is about how American society operates and how human beings make decisions in the time of uncertainty. Absolutely. Well, it has been an honor to know you since then to be continued. And are you watching live tomorrow? Are you sitting there, the popcorn ready? Where do you watch? Are you in the war room saying, wait a minute, are you jumping at the TV? Yeah. By the way, let me ask you your expertise on this. I know Rand Paul, I know him, we're friendly, or we used to be, but he is very good on this and he is a doctor. Would you rather see Robert F. Kennedy Jr.. in the ring with Anthony Fauci tomorrow? Well, that's a good question. Well, I... I mean, dare I say, I wish there was someone who, and this is impossible, who didn't have the sort of political baggage or political coding of either of them, but of course that would never happen. Because ultimately, and what I've always tried to do with my writing, is to not just like preach to the choir, but I always try to persuade other people. And unfortunately, you know what's going to happen. It literally won't matter what Rand Paul says. to half the country. It doesn't matter. They don't care. So that's sort of the shame of this. It's exciting for, you know, a certain segment, you know, people who want to watch for the popcorn. But unfortunately, I don't think it's going to change minds of a lot of people. And there's not really an easy solution to that, is there? Yeah. And, David, I would just tell you, too, you probably have yours. But my big thing, given my background before doing this, Learning loss is historic here and the shame of all those hundreds of billions of dollars. There was no urgency in schools to make up for that learning loss. There just wasn't. And it continues. And these are the kids that were already borderline to start with. That's the legacy to me. Well, I'll tell you. Those, you know, hundred-something billion dollars, just an absolute, you know, torrent of money that flow to the schools as a sort of, I would deem it almost as like a mea culpa, you know, that the government put into action to try to help kids with learning loss for what they did to them.

There were virtually zero strings attached to that money, you might not know. Initially, I thought, oh, well, they have to use it in a certain way. You need to hire tutors. You need to, you know, have more. No, there was a very, very small amount. I think it was something like 20% of it actually needed to be very specifically earmarked. The rest of it... It was just a cash grab. It was a windmill. My district here in upstate New York where I live, you know what they used part of the money for that came from the government for the COVID learning loss? They hired a full-time DEI coordinator. Oh, of course. With the money. Oh, perfect. I mean, perfect. I mean, exactly. That's what the COVID learning loss money from the federal government was used for, hiring a DEI person. I'm going to use that nugget. I got a lot of speeches coming up around this. I'm going to use that nugget. It's unbelievable. Feel free. Yes, it's true. So, David. Just, just wild stuff. Thank you so much. Thanks, David. Look, if there's anything urgent tomorrow, you have our number. You want to pop on and say I'm bursting on this what Anthony Fauci just said. We'll do a play-by-play, some therapy for all of us. Thank you, David, for the great work on this. Thank you, as always. Of course. All right. Coming up, I'll take your calls coming after that. There was a local hero. I don't know his whereabouts, and I'm determined with the testimony tomorrow to find out whatever happened to Dr. Damsker. Our person of the year over in Bucks County, is he still in the basement held captive by Diane Mersaglia and Bob Harv, Harv de Gras Harvey? Gene D. Girolamo, can you tell me where he is? I'll tell you why Dr. Damsker was big in this. And your calls next on Talk Radio 1210. Tom Chiodato on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. All-time countdown is what we're looking for. Dr. David Damsker, we had him on. He was a person of the year people loved him. I'm not sure if it was 2020, 2021, whatever, in that time frame. One of the things he did, he had such credibility. He was a Bucks County public health guy. He said, now three feet is plenty of distance in schools. Remember that? And he started to speak around the state and school boards around the state just on his say-so were starting to open schools. And then came the good afternoon woman. I'm not sure, Henry, if she's in our bank anyhow. She was this dizzy woman they put in charge of this stuff from another field. And she would always say, good afternoon. We'd play her repeatedly. She and Wolfman Hack cracked down. They told them over there. I think it was like 12 days before they were ready to go back to school or something. Nope. Can't be done. Can't be doing it. And the big Bucks County school districts. And Damsker ended up in the basement. We never could get them on again, never heard again, doesn't speak out. And these people out in Bucks County, the suburbs again.

You think they would be in revolt. Let's elect Diane Merseglia, Bob Hart to Grace Harvey. Let's select people like this. Again, I say it all the time. What is up with the dumbness, the insulation in the suburbs? Right there. Remember that inconvenience people were set to actually go back to school. Then they got the word, this woman was involved. And Governor Wolf. And then Damsker suddenly. Still had the title. I think he's still there as far as I know. But he's put into the basement, so to speak. Just an example. What in the world? This guy was, you remember hearing him, was his accurate credibility. He was unbelievable. I had him on four or five times. You voted in person of the year. And when push comes to shove, no. We would rather side with these dummies. that are the commissioners out there because they're going to protect abortion. That seems to be the big issue. Go figure. I can't tell you what's happened, but Dr. Damsker always in my mind as one of the true heroes and a guy never heard from again. Tell me what interviews or what he, you know, where I'd love to have him breaking down what Anthony Fauci says tomorrow. And this happened all over the place. Over in Montgomery County, they have Valerie Arcoosh. with the rat line, and then with her goofy doctor, quoting Wayne Gretzky, to make schools close down for two weeks. These people have never paid a price. Neither has Anthony Fauci for this. David is a down-the-middle guy, but there needs to be a reckoning on this, that we get it right. Here's what happened. It should never happen again. We haven't. Randy Wine Garden is more famous, more prominent than she's ever been. She said, Menace. Hi, let's go to Joe in Philadelphia. Joe's on Talk Radio 12. And good afternoon, Joe. Hi, Dom. Nice talking to you. That was a great interview you just had. I was very informative. Well, thank you. That guy, Joe, when we had him on, that summer when we were all grasping it on, and he had this article about camps, has stuck with us. I think we've had him on a dozen times since then. And it doesn't change. Tomorrow is a big moment. We can never forget what happened to us. Check two, check, check one, two. I had a... You're going to keep that side shot? Go ahead, Joe, if you can talk. Yeah, I had a question for you. Are you going to zoom in on you? Why can't the DOJ look into the CDC find out who was going along with Anthony Fauci's playbook? And... look into them for a conspiracy, indict them, and have Anthony Fauci as a witness in the indictment. I know we can't prosecute him because he has immunity. Yeah, I would say this. In fairness, as I remember it, the woman who held the job at the CDC was doing the right thing. She was superseded by the Biden people when Randy Weingarten got involved. Randy Weingarten is somebody they ought to go after, though.

There are probably other functionaries. The guy who was in cahoots with Anthony Fauci at the National Institutes of Health, Joe, he's a guy. I don't know if he's been parted. Yeah, there's the ones I would look at. Yeah, because that would be a good way to get him as a witness. Right. And this way, he can be in the Sanford two, three days, and he'd have to answer the questions. I like that. Joe, do you have a countdown on the side? No, I haven't even thought about that. That's okay. But thank you, Joe, for a great call. Yeah, it's an interesting thing. Have him as a witness. I don't know what was going on there, take two and three, but that's fine. Good call by Joe. Yeah, David, who was just with us. I'd love to get David Damsker back on. Maybe when he retires or something. Remember that person of the year? We had to run of Persons of the Year from Bucks County. Meg Brock was another one. what's the common thing those commissioners uh robert and ben salem oh box county talk radio 1210 hey robert afternoon hey dom and henry it's good to talk to you guys today same here and dom Summertime, and the living wasn't easy until A.C. came out. Well, it wasn't easy in the wintertime either, yes. I hear it again. A lot more people die from freezing than heat. That's true. But I wanted to talk about John Thune for a second, man. Yes. You know, if John Thune had been the Senate Majority Leader in 1964, the Civil Rights Act would have never passed. because they made them do a talking filibuster, and the Democrats, including Al Gore Sr., filibuster to Civil Rights Act, for 73 days, the longest filibuster in history. But they made them do it, and when they got tired of doing it, then they passed a civil right back. And that is a brilliant point on this ground, too. Even though segregationists with them, that's the major thing in their life forever. They could not withstand it. These guys would crack under just the Save America Act. That's exactly right. Make them do it. Well, you either achieve cloture by achieving cloture or when the filibusters stop from exhaustion. That's actually in the text. So they should have just make them do a talking filibuster. And we get to listen to these idiots every day talk about how secure elections are a bad thing. And I think that would play well politically. But I don't think. soon has that in him. He doesn't. Big disappointment, Doug. He does not. And he's, I don't even think he's lying. He actually believes it, Robert, I think, at some level that we're talking about getting rid of the filibuster. All we're saying is enforce it. That's it. Well, either that or it's just anything he can do to stick a finger in Trump's eye, he'll do. I mean, that's what it seemed twice to me. My side answer, I believe Henry mentioned the doomsday clock. Now, when that doomsday clock hits zero, we hit what's called the final countdown. And that was something that us Cold War kids feared all the time. But we were put at ease by the fact that if a...

Huge fire burst bomb blew up outside of school. We could hide under our wooden desks and everything would be fine. So I'm going to go with the final countdown, Dom. Great show, as always. You guys have a good day, all right. Thank you. Yeah, I'd rather face the nuclear holocaust there than the nuns if you didn't put your head under that desk at King of Peace. Nice work.

Rice, always very entertaining and very much involved with some of the biggest issues out there. The current book, he says this book is dedicated to all the amazing women born inside the right body on the back. One of them is Riley Gaines and the cover. Come on, AJ Rice. Could you be more provocative holding it up here? YouTube.com. You can see AJ slash 1210. The curse of the bearded lady. All right. And then you have to say afterward trans mafia. That's right. How the trans mafia whacked American sanity. Dom G., great to be here, right? I heard you had to bump LeBron to you bump LeBron to put me on today. Big shout out to Lansdale. I want to shout out to Lansdale Catholic High School here. Well, Dr. Anthony Fauci was scheduled, but we'd rather talk to you in the bearded lady here. But, AJ, talk about in the book, Did it occur to you? The 2024 election, I had on one of the Trump people before the final result, and they said they'd already spent $44 million on the trans issue at Kamala Harris. And I told them, mortgage everything, spend a billion. This is the winner of winners. And I think your book, among other things, gets at why Democrats, though, cannot give it up, particularly now.

100%. That is exactly right. It was the main silver bullet of sanity. They doubled down on it in 2024. In fact, I just got off with Donald Trump Jr. He and I just spent an hour talking about exactly that. And the thing about the curse is, They won't shake it. They're willing to die on this hill again. So, you know, they all lift their skirt up. There's 72 genders under there. This was that thing that regular people just couldn't shake, especially when it comes to children. Now, there's been plenty of, you know, medical examinations. I do have a fairly famous shrink who wrote the forward for me. She was trained by Freud's daughter. But this is more of a cultural autopsy, the book. I mean, I write political humor. I've been on with you before with my other two books. And the reality here is that if you use humor to illustrate truth, usually... ridicule moves faster than rebellion. And it's a public audit. It's a public audit. You could go see, you know, Kamala Harris spent $1.3 billion in a hundred and some days, right? Let it on fire. But the Trump administration was able to narrow down on a few things, a few pockets of government overreach and a few places, like with the trans mafia issue, where the Democrats have totally lost their mind. And the reason I call it a curse, and I'm being, you know, a little bit glibbed there. I am from northeast Philadelphia in Bucks County. I will say that the curse is the fact that other than a few people, like John Fetterman, Bill Maher, maybe Rahm Emanuel on the right day, maybe guys like Stephen A. Smith, they will not shake this. They are willing to go again and again into election cycles defending the bearded ladies. So the bearded lady is never going to sing for the Democrat Party, even the 400-pound blue-haired ones. With all that local knowledge, which I know of too, Josh Shapiro, I think in the end when the dust settles, even the fact the anti-Semitism of the party, this guy is one-of-a-kind chameleon. And yet... He felt the necessity to even hit the third rail there of this whole issue saying, yes, boys and girls sports, the bathroom stuff and all that, people get fired up. But I'm convinced when people see that, they just go crazy. It's such a human reaction to this. Absolutely. And look, he's a, yeah, he is a chameleon. They are like weather veins for sure.

Look, I'm in D.C. I left Philadelphia 22 years ago. I've been in the rooms with these goofballs, these focus group people, in the rooms of these public policy shops, public affairs shops, people that try to figure out how to spend taxpayer money, light it on fire at the whim. And the reality is they are trying to figure out how to not look. anti-trans. I mean, you see, you see Gavin Newsom doing this in California, right? It depends on the dead, on which way they're going to go. Exactly. Right. Because they know that they're at the time. Bottom of the building is filled with Zohran Mamdani, the squad, and all the coots. The Bolsheviks are in the basement, and they're moving up through the building. And the establishment Democrats, the building is on fire and they don't know what to do. I mean, the thing about Josh Shapiro is, he can play that little game all he wants. But as I just mentioned, I mean, Kamala Harris basically told us that... The Democrat Party was going to think he was too Jewish to be the nominee, and that Mayor Pete was too gay, was too gay. See, here's the problem. Democrat Party, they put us all into little box. Titan ad, you know, a la carte sushi menu grievance boxes, right? And that's how they order the universe. And one of them, one of the biggest ones, corporate money, Hollywood money, academic money, to the bearded lady. It flows directly to the trans mafia enforcers. And right now there's a little pause. But as you saw Dom with Major League Baseball. You know, they get amnesia real quick. The second they don't think, the second they don't think Trump. What are they afraid of? Are they afraid of actual, I remember Bill Maher talking about this now. Actual violence is it what is the fear? Because these are very small numbers of actual people who are. What is the fear that will happen to them? Well, I mean, the Democrat Party, the energy, the money, the activist base, they are all for this. And it doesn't matter if one type of totalitarianism somehow is incongruent with another. This is why you get queers for Palestine. This is why you got trans people that are celebrating the mullahs not being totally wiped out yet in Iran. This is where they're at. And it's fear. It's fear. I mean, Bernie Sanders is no longer, you know, the old Bolshevik that's drying his underwear on the radiator. He's in charge. He's in charge. Exactly. Now, AJ Rice with this, AJ, one of your chapters wanted to talk about remembering Charlie Kirk, how Kirk plays out in this and what we're seeing, at least on surface from the trial.

the whole violence part of this from his assassin allegedly. So, full disclosure, I was Charlie's publicist for a couple of his books. And that section actually was one of the last things. I put it in there as like a halfway point. I called it an intermezzo, like when you're going to a fine Italian restaurant. And, you know, It has seemed to be proven true because whether it's a non-binary person adjacent or a trans person adjacent, Charlie seems to be not only the victim of left-wing violence, but of the trans mafia or an affiliate or the fact that the shooter's boyfriend was a member. You know, if, Dom, if a bunch of Italian Catholic nuns. from, you know, northeast Philadelphia or from South Jersey, we're running around the country, shooting the places up, or Irish Catholic nuns from Minnesota, you pick your group. a non-protected group, I should add, you know, there would be a national conversation. You know, there would be breathless, you know, documentaries and docudramas. CNN would name a whole month for this. No one apparently dumb, except a few of us, can connect the dots that a majority of a lot of these shootings really in the last five to ten years. have been from people that are mentally ill and on some kind of trans drug or identified that way. It's one after another after another. I document a lot of it in the book. And yet the media can't see it. It's a giant bearded lady blind spot and they can't connect the dots dumb. Any fear of you personally, though, putting out this book at this time? I got a lot of reasons for asking that, that may be my colleagues here, no. But this is the type of stuff that's kind of dangerous. Well, look, I'm having fun in the book. I'm not there to diagnose people medically, right? But the reality is, just like all humor, I think that it can get into places that... you know, making a public policy argument or ranting and raving from the pulpit or this or, you know, as a medical doctor can. Because there has always been junk science. Whether it's leeches, whether it's trying to see if a witch can float in Salem, Massachusetts, whether it's phrenology, where people are measuring head size to dictate intelligence. The earth goes around the sun, the sun goes around the earth. We are going to look back 100 years from now and think that a segment of society lost their minds.

and someone needs to, look, I'm not the first person to do a book like this, but I am the first person to do a comedy about it, for sure, other than, you know, maybe Mrs. Doubtfire or Tootsie or any, Dustin Hoffman, most of his movies, right? No, I mean, the reality is no. I mean, I'm in this game. The last book I did was called The White Privilege album, which, you know, I was on with you and some of the boys there, Rich and others. Yeah. Look, I mean, I am doing satire. It's no different than George Carlin. It's no different than Groucho Marx. Yeah, sometimes it makes you uncomfortable and makes you think. And that is the difference between comedy and satire. Satire makes you think. And there's an old tradition in the United States. You know, even in Western civilization, go back to ancient Greece. It doesn't matter whether it's Lenny Bruce or George Carlin or in recent times, Shane Gillis and Dave Chappelle. You know, these are jokes. So yeah, I mean, there are people that are always going to hunt. people that tell jokes, but you have to do it because that's what makes Western civilization special. Exactly. A.J. Rice, the book, The Curse of the Bearded Lady, how the trans mafia whacked American sanity. AJ, so do these people, by and large, that we're talking about in the Democrat Party, not just the far progressives, do they actually believe this stuff, or is it the fear factor? You got to go along with it. And my contribution on this whole thing I always say with it is this. It is a political blessing. We're winning on this. Sanity is winning, but it's slow. They're going to fight a lot of rearguard battles, which means it's going to come up in at least two, three, four, five more elections. Yes. Yes. But it is, they're cursed with this. They own it. You know, I mean, look, I did the book cover to look a little bit like an old school noir movie. Yes. You know, a little bit. And it's a bit of a circus show for sure. And, but they are stuck with this. And they have a few guys telling them to ditch this stuff. But I don't think they can. I mean, I was watching Ann Hathaway at the human rights campaign giving some wacky speech about, you know, trans people, circumnavigate gay people and gay people. Like she was using this nutty metaphor. I mean, they are in. Hollywood trans is their own kids. We got sports people like D. Wade who have done it with their, with his kids. So, I mean, here's the thing. Not all activism is created equal. And if you're a sports guy like Dom and I are and this, everyone listened to this station, you can go back in time and whether it's Jackie Robinson, Muhammad Ali, or Jim Brown, you can look at some of their activism as noble. But when we look back on this time period, it's not going to look that way. It's going to look like marketing.

It's going to look like virtue signaling. And it's going to look like people, unfortunately, turning their own friends, in some cases their own children, into accessories in order to fit in with a very small segment of society. I didn't look in the glossary. Is Dylan Mulvaney in the book? And if so, how many pages? Oh, yeah. Well, I do credit. You know, it's one, elections have consequences for sure. But I've got to tell you. Kid Rock and his AR-15 did more on, you know, Instagram and TikTok when he lit up those cases of Bud Light. When he actually, when he did target practice with that Bud Light, he did more damage. to this insanity, to the point where Ann Hydra Bush's CEO got on a plane, and they were flying there by the time the video was over. So, yeah, I address it. I address all the other times that we may forget, like Doritos did something, and obviously that goofy Jaguar ad where they were having a, it's a Jaguar ad with no car in it. Can you imagine? There was as a drag brunch on the moon or on Mars or something. I mean, some of this stuff is so silly. I mean, you have Skittles did something. A lot of the corporate world got injected with these people. They all had DEI coordinators and all the rest. Exactly. Unbelievable stuff. AJ, it is the perfect blend. The cover two, people will see it. Got to be a reaction in bookstores or online. Oh, yeah. The curse of the bearded lady. They're hiding it. They're hiding it. How the trans mafia whacked American sanity. AJ, thank you so much for coming on again. We'll talk soon, hopefully. Thanks, Tom. I appreciate it, brother. Go birds. All right. Thank you, H. Henry, you always wince at the Jaguar thing. I know that takes a particular... It's such a horrible. I mean, whatever they're thinking. Yeah. What a blockbuster. These two back to back here. All right, phone lines are 855, 839, 1210. Tom Chirdano on Talk Radio 1210. WPHT. All right, boy, great stuff from A.J. Rice, Dom Gerdano's show. You missed some of it? I think that one's up on podcast, too. But also the COVID book, I got a lot of response on Twitter around COVID. Side question today, some kind of countdown. This is a good one. Alan in Hamilton, New Jersey with Dom. Hey, Alan, good afternoon. What do you have today? I was thinking about this. Earlier this week, I was watching the film of Private Ryan. Yes. D-Day. Yep. D-Day was a countdown. Yeah, a most consequential. We weren't aware of when D-Day was going to. I don't even know if we were aware of D-Day. And what the hell, Rommel, the greatest general, right? Sure. I'm going to go home for my wife's birthday.

was like, what? And Hitler, ah, don't wake Hitler. Can you imagine you waking Hitler? The world's ending here. You get shot in here. You're not waking Hitler. All true. I've seen dozens of films on that. So, yeah, the countdown, the D-Day and Eisenhower is saying, that's it. This is the day. Conditions are good enough. Let's go with it. I mean, we're in the middle of June. You still can't cross that channel easily. That's how difficult it is. All right. Big issues, big guess. Jeff Van Drew is on the case, and that is Mikie Sherrill. Let him lay it out the questions he has for her. As I understand it, she's been subpoenaed to appear before his subcommittee. I'll let him say, well, by the way, Jim Jordan tomorrow. Where do we get Jim Jordan going on Dr. Anthony Fauci after seeing it tomorrow? And you can help me on Twitter. What advice should I give to Jim Jordan? With that amount being too, you know, over the top about because I've never engaged Larry Krasner other than I got him impeached. I want that on my resume. The impeached Larry Krasner, what advice should we give him for dealing with Krasner? Jim, when he goes for cleaning the glasses, that's your moment. Top rope time. That's it. Right in. Interject, say, I don't care. I'm the chairman. Did you, Mr. Krasner? Mr. Krasner, have you no shame. 855, 839, 12, 10. Big 2 o'clock hour. Dom's Money Melody 2 coming up. Dom Judano, weekdays, noon till 3. From Talk Radio 1210, WPHD. On Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. It is Domtime. Welcome in. On Deck Circle. We usually arrives at 201. There it is. Almost 201 on the nose. Congressman Jeff Van Drew in the Center Ring of Center Rings, I believe it's his subcommittee. They will be bringing in Mikie Sherrill. I think it's a subpoena matter. And he put up on Twitter some of the questions. He'd like to have answered around this. But of course, I'll ask him for updates on several other things. And the Jersey thing is not going away. We've seen that with Scott Presler, et cetera. It has blown open the big lie. You're making it up. Now we're into the stage of tolerance. How much can the left tolerate with people voting who should not be voting? And we saw the purge of the voting list here. in Pennsylvania, Scott, talking about that yesterday. All right, let's go to Congressman Jeff Van Drew here on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Congressman Jeff Van Drew, welcome back. Thanks for joining us. And thanks once again for being in the center ring on a most important issue. Oh, it's a big issue. And I tell you, it's so ironic. You know, I have a lot of feelings about this. But, you know, the one I'd like to start off with it. We were told we were xenophobic. We were racist. We were Pharisee theorists. We were liars. We were weird. You know, I can go on and on and on. There was nowhere in America, nowhere in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, nowhere, anywhere that people who are illegal immigrants and vote are voting.

Well, God help us. What we worried about and thought might be true. And truthfully hoped wasn't true, obviously turned out to be true. And there's a lot of questions. So the questions are, look, this is 600 people who admitted openly either through stupidity or honesty or a combination of both and said, yeah, we're illegal and we're registered to vote. How many people are out there that talk to induce? How many people are illegal, maybe even illegal, who are voting? We have no idea. The only reason we know this is they actually openly live on the people who were breaking the law to uphold the law. I don't know how else to say. So we don't go dig into that. Secondly, we felt in the great state of New Jersey that there are thousands, I think it's about 75,000 people who've been called to jury duty who are illegal. Now, it seems with judiciary that they have double checked and it seems that they've called them out. We don't know that for a fact. That's what we're told. Hopefully, not hopefully. We will dig in. We will find out more. Here's the deal, though, Dom. It all goes down to what you and I have spoken about for so long. The bottom line is there is no room in the United States of America for sanctuary cities, sanctuary states or a sanctuary country. When you allow all the sanctuary activity to take place, these are the things that result. If we didn't have all the sanctuary activity, if we upheld the law, if we didn't have open borders, none of this would be a problem. Absolutely. One note on that, too, that this has explosive consequence. Illinois, a judge has just said, if you're here illegally, you don't get the in-state tuition. And Illinois is as liberal as Jersey, I believe. I can't tell you. You probably get it over the years, too. How is it that American citizens an inch outside of Jersey here in Pennsylvania have to pay the full boat? But if you're here illegally, okay, we're going to let you go to college, et cetera, you should have to pay the full boat also. Do you see that as something that can be dealt with? Well, we'll try. And it's very much worth pursuing. I mean, these are things, you know, just going back a number of years, when I was in the New Jersey State Senate and the New Jersey State Assembly, if anybody even dared mention, gee, you know, that they fought illegals, illegal aliens should have the right to drive a vehicle, Republicans and Democrats back then would have said, are you crazy? That's not right. You can't give them that privilege. Driving is a privilege. You just don't give that away to everybody. Other countries just don't do this. It's insane. And here we are people breaking their backs trying to make a living.

and they can't afford college. And so, you know, they're coming up with all kinds of schemes and things that you could do so you can borrow even, you know, people can borrow more money or, you know, the government can tax more to pay for it or whatever. How about you don't give in-state tuition to people who are illegal? How about you don't do that? You don't give in-state tuition to people who are legal and immigrated. but live in a different area. You don't give in-state tuition to people who are legal and live in other states, but you're giving it to illegal immigrants. People, let me be clear, American citizens who are having a tough time making ends meet are tired of paying for clothing, educating, housing, transporting. and all the others that go along with it feeding people who are from other countries and are illegal, particularly illegal criminals. You know, I don't want to monopolize the radio waves. But, you know, there are so many good immigrants, wonderful people who love America who come over here. And this, in no way, cast aspersions on them. But the types of individuals, you know, I went to Delaney Hall, as you know, really dug in, looked at everything. Everything was fine. In fact, actually, it was quite nice. But there was a guy there heading up a hunger strike. and the food's so bad, we're going on a hunger strike. I don't know if you know this, Tom. I don't know if I got to tell you this or if you'd heard it somewhere else. Dug into that, it wasn't a hunger strike. So the people who were illegals that were on the hunger strike and the guy who led it were going to the commissary and buying their food, they were getting their, you know, lased potato chips and their twinkies and their ho-hoes and everything else. And they'd probably gain weight during the... the hunger strike because they were actually bar and all this food but it was a big BS fake phony presentation. It was acting. And the guy that's supposed hero, the supposed hero of the hunger strike, turns out the Carney police, and I got that in my committee, we got the information, and I read the information in committee. So now I'm getting death threats from some of these people up in Newark Way and around John Cornyn, some of these cohorts. Turns out this guy. was in jail for domestic abuse, slapped his wife around. He now is afraid to admit it, but filed charges back then hit her open and closed-fisted. That's their hero. That's not the kind of immigrants who came to America and built America. No doubt. So with your committee now, does this mean Governor Cheryl will be testifying and you'll be asking a number of questions I've seen up on Twitter?

Well, we're going to ask people, as you know, real briefly, we did a letter. I penned a letter and had 17 of my colleagues, which I appreciate that, sign it with me, and we sent it to her. We have to explore. Hopefully she will answer if she needs an extension and time a little bit. We're glad to do that, but the bottom line is we're going to have the hearing. We're going to get experts in there. We're going to get hopefully somebody from her administration, if not her. and try to get to the bottom of this and really get to it. You know as well as I do. She's not going to come, at least willfully, willingly rather, to my committee. So we're going to see what we can do. But believe me, we're going to have it. We're going to expose stuff. And I want to get to the truth. And bottom line, I want to make sure this happens nowhere in America. Voting is a privilege. It's a privilege that men and women have died for for centuries. We're celebrating 250 years of it. And again, and I don't want to overemphasize this, but I don't think you can't overemphasize it. Tom, people like you and me and your listeners and hundreds of thousands, millions of others told we were weirdo, extremists. and xenophobic and every other thing you could think of when we were saying that this was going on, that it was never going on. Now, we know for fact. In fact, we had a liberal left-wing governor have to expose it because it was going to be found out. Would Governor Murphy, it seems to be more on his watch, not that she didn't know, because I don't see how you could be in those circles and not know this. Is it fair to say, too, that Governor Murphy, would there be any value in talking to him? Because the French company says, no, it wasn't on us. You were aware. We notified you. These were non-citizens. Absolutely. The company's right, by the way. By the way, just as an aside, why do we have to have a French company? We don't have American companies. Yeah, absolutely. And you know what? Every time something like this comes up, you and I probably speak for you, I know what I think about. Why are the Chinese so interested in running our New Jersey turnpike? Yeah, we talked about this. I'm just, and now we got people from other countries running our elections. It's weird. It's not the way it should be. I bet you we're not running their elections. Anyhow, but the bottom line is the company's right. I mean, they essentially said, look, there was nothing, they weren't hiding anything. They let them know. They gave them the information. The election commission, they're supposed to monitor this, look at it, and clean those rolls up. They didn't do their job. Maybe they knew. Maybe they didn't know. I don't know. But, you know, it seems to me that it seems to me, and again, you can call me whatever you want to, that there's a link between having open borders and allowing 10 million plus people in. It seems to me have a political smell to it. It seems to me it's about elections. It seems to me about the ultra-left wanting to win and having people that will vote for them.

So this should have never happened. And yes, this is Moore Murphy's fault and it is Cheryl's fault. I can, you know me. I call it the way I see it. At least she exposed it. She know it was coming down on her. So she did the smart thing. Just come here, admitted openly, said it wasn't under my watch. And here it is. But the bottom line is, I don't blame Mikie Sherrill for this that much because this happened before. What I do blame her for, though, is creating the conditions that nurtured this kind of activity. Sanctuary State, not cooperating with ICE, not cooperating within your prison system to get rid of illegals who are felons and have committed horrible crimes. That I do blame her for. This is different. This is more Murphy than anybody else. Absolutely. Congressman, thank you. Godspeed on this. Anything else you'd like to update us on anything else happening with you. Man, there's stuff a mile a minute, but this is the big one right now. It just, and I'll wrap up with this, and I'm saying it for the third time, it just justifies. You know what? Tom Giordano told the truth. Jeff Van Drew told the truth. Donald Trump told the truth and millions of other people. They were worried about this. They were concerned. and they were told that they were bad. We were told you were bad people. Well, I'll add this given your previous profession, too. Tomorrow, Dr. Anthony Fauci, we told the truth about this, the diaries show what he was up to. Yep, more bad stuff. It's coming out, man. We were in trouble. We still are in trouble, but at least now we know what we're dealing with and we're openly fighting it. Absolutely. Congressman, thank you so much. Thanks for joining. You can take care, Dom. Thank you. Congressman Jeff Van Drew, your calls are next, but first, it is time for... It's Dodd Money Melody. All right, we're playing for a pair of tickets to see a great night out. Joe Conklin's City Rhythm Orchestra, Greatest Moments, in Philly Sports Thursday, August 6th at the Ocean City Music Pier, a great venue with Ray Dinniger and Glenn Mack now. For tickets, visit joeconclan.com. Yeah, so side question that I were asked for those all-time countdowns. One of the answers provided us by the Earl of Tocconi was the count up that bands use when they're starting to begin a song. They're like one, two, three, four, you know, five, six, seven, eight, whatever. So frankly, I'm going to give you a band today that uses that in a lot of their songs. And of course, this isn't going to be one of their songs. It's actually going to be a cover song of the Spider-Man theme song.

So I want to know this band who's going to do the classic 1, 2, 3, 4 in this cover. I want to know who this famous band is covering the Spider-Man theme song. Ready? Highly recognizable band that does a count up to start their songs. Want to know who this is. Hit us with that, and you're off to see Joe Conklin, Ray, and Glenn. 855-839-1210. That's how you do it on Talk Radio 1210. It's the Money Melody. All right, since it's Money Melody, a little note on the funeral. They're playing How Great Thou Art. The congregation sings it for Lindsey Graham. There's nothing like Amazing Grace. And if I had to be there with somebody doing it, because it's a bit performative. Bill Clinton does that better than anybody I've ever seen when it comes to. He can make you believe. He probably believes in himself. The ultimate connection and bond with any individual. He just emotes it. He can do it. Whether he's lying to himself or not, he doesn't even know anymore. He was that good. Not now, but back in the day, nobody could do it. But right now, here's your clue today. on a day of countdowns want to know this band that counts up and i told you henry too after we get a winner on this oh i see a winner i have to admit my bias you guys i'll give you a permission you always have permission but you can strike me down on this But Bill in Bucks. It's a strong contender at the very much. Particularly if it has a tenth of a second on this clock, then that's it. They shouldn't allow it. Let's go to Terrence in Port Richmond on Dom's Money Melody. Hey, Terrence, afternoon. What do you have today? How are you today? Good. Good. My guess is the Beach Boys. No. Wow. That seems to be throwing darts at the walls, the Beach Boys. Yeah, I don't know about that one. Mike in Medford. Hello, Mike. What's your answer? That would be the Ramon. Nicely died. All right, yeah, a little bit different than the Beach Boys. Have you any more on that? No, I was just, you know, looking around for, there's not a lot of songs about countdowns or bands revolving around a countdown, but these guys count up in a lot of their songs. So I tried to just find something out of the way to incorporate that in. All right, so you see Joe Conklin, by the way, I'm amazed when you see the Conklin show, how many things to be remembered, how many bits in it and stuff, and how many Conklins that are related. It must be a dozen of them. that performing this. So enjoy that. Ocean City, the pier there is a great venue. All right. He better not blow it after all that teasing up here on the side question today. 98 days. We're kidding the other day. It was a hundred days countdown. The urgency of the midterms. John Thune hasn't gotten that note apparently since there's no urgency with him. And am I right? Amazing Grace.

How great thou art, too. I mean, it's a National Cathedral, but, and Bill Clinton doing it. Unbelievable. Bill and Bucks on Talk Radio 12th, and Bill, you've been around a lot of pop. Remember back in the day with Bill Clinton in empathy. I feel your pain. I feel your pain. Yeah, you got that right. Yeah, Bill, yeah, I didn't have sex with that woman. Whatever. Ms. Lindskine him, not once, not once should I do. Right, right, right. Well, he wasn't counting oral sex. He wasn't counting oral sex, too. That was another thing they tried. Imagine what goes on in the White House. Oh, God. But it was that storage room or whatever it was? Yeah. A great leg of last night with Stacey Garrity and Warrington Township, by the way. Good. It was a full house. Glad to hear it. Some public officials were noticeably absent, but other than that, everything was all right. Good, good. It went very well. So. That's it. And by the way, Dr. David Damsker is alive and well on Almshouse Road in Doylestown Township at the Board of Health. Does he ever get to speak or do? Remember how prominent? This guy was the it guy. He had credibility galore. They took him out. Yeah, I know. And, you know, the sheriff used to. too, you know. Yeah. And he got primaries. You know, Bill Warrel. Yeah. Exactly. So, oh, that chart was exactly. So, Bill, what's your side answer today? Oh, my side answer today is a countdown clock. Actually, a public comment countdown clock at the Philadelphia City Council. Or, well, that's right. But I mean, I'm thinking of the ones at the school board meetings, too. It's unbelievable. Exactly. They all do it. The three-minute clock, but it seems for Alente, they seem to change those numbers. Oh, yeah. They go in reverse, whatever they do up there. Particularly, where is it, Penn Crest? Is that the right? There's one particular, Verl. And in Bucks County, I think they have the tenth of a second. When you're doing that at a school board meeting, you really have lost your mind. Yeah, the school boards do, you know, they do. And they actually count the time they talk from the day up there, the school board directors. Yeah, exactly. That is a very good one. Thank you, Bill. Yeah, I have a bias toward that. When that first started, just the, and then with Alante, who hopefully was just about to say that. Well, then they changed it in the middle. Now it's only one minute. Right, right. By the one minute, he has to go through that hole. I'm Alante McCauley. You have sinned. I'm throwing in there for 70 years, you know. You've done that. And then he takes some arcane issue that city council is dealing with that day and goes off on it. We recognize Cuba today. And then he goes off. How dare you? So, yeah, city council takes the summer off, less damage from their meetings. Lance in South Philly with us on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Lance.

How you doing, Dom? Good. It's been a while after that storm, I was running around here, you know, fixing walls and roofs and selling, so. Good to have. I know the other, you know, I think others want to get on. Dom, there's no, there's no worse countdown than when you're in the sixth or seventh grade and, you know, your buddies, triple dog dare you to ask the prettiest girl in the school out. And you can't welch. And if she's coming down the hall, you know, they're counting down. Five, four, three, two, one. And John, you know, you've been triple dog there. You got to ask her. I hear you. And Lance, you seem like you'd be quite a ladies man. You'd have some kind of patter. Right. You were, hey, can I tell you about extermination? Yeah. Yeah. And, Dom, that countdown is like going to the guillotine and she's coming down the hall. She's getting closer and prettier and closer and prettier. And, you know, you probably got on your dad's cologne for the special occasion. But, Dom, you don't want to be the neighborhood welter. That's like the neighborhood snitch. Yeah. And I remember the story of your dad driving one hand the cigarette out, so that cologne had to be pretty powerful. Oh, he was a brute man. Oh, there we go. Figured it. Yeah, roof from it. Excellent. Yeah, that's my countdown. Thank you, Lance. Lance is a man of great details. I mean, this is like Schwerber Harper. No, it's like Ruth Garrett. Lance, followed by Zenos in Upper Darby. Hey, Zinos, welcome in. Good afternoon, Dom, to you and everybody in the station. Before I get started, maybe I can make a little comment about Zohran Mamdani with the salami. Yes. If you remember years and years ago, you know, with 60 minutes. They did a thing in Russia where the husband went to work and the wife went out to buy stuff. Well, she came home an hour before he did. Now, you figure eight hours that she had a waiting line for rotten vegetables and everything. And this is what this guy is going to do in New York. He's going to have people waiting around to get the slop was left over instead of leaving things. leaving things alone, and he's going to ruin a first-class city. He's going to ruin New York City, and he's doing it slowly, but shoot. And, Enzino, seek to your point, and you know something about the food industry. This is the one thing you cannot do central planning. You have to be on top of it and make decisions day by day if you have a supermarket. You just can't plan out 30 days. They'll take the food to face day, the 30-day discount, and sell it. Or, you know, that's what it'll be like. Exactly. And, you know, if you're in the food industry, you're certain, you know, like certain things that you can carry a little bit, then they start losing, you know, their freshness, and you're absolutely right. Then you're going to go to these places where you're going to have wilted down stuff, black carrots, rotten tomatoes. This is not going to work now. It didn't work in the Soviet Union for almost, almost up to 1989. And it's not going to work there.

He thinks by repeating something and using fancy talk. He's going nowhere fast. Exactly. Thank you, Zinos. Thank you very much. Coming up, it's not back to school time. I don't start that, even though they start the sales, July 4th or whatever. But I saw a story today. To protect schools, you will not believe what the newest thing is. A handful of schools in Florida, Georgia, and Colorado are doing this. I'll tell you what this is. And look, I still think having armed people there, both a resource officer, think Avington, and faculty that can store a weapon in a safe place, athletic director, lunch lady. comes out from the mashed potatoes firing away. You need people there that are going to return fire, and that's the way you can stop this. But I'll tell you what schools are doing that is pretty exotic, to put it, mildly. Is it money well spent or not? And it's ripped right from the headlines in Iran and Ukraine. That's next. And your calls at 855-839-12 tab. Tom Chiodano. On Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. All right, that is part of the side question here. Countdown, count up. Something like 98 days to the midterms. That's our premise. I'm to your Danos show. We're far away. I'm not going to say, oh, we're in the home stretch of the summer. I never say that because summertime and the living is easy. We've been pushed back on that a little bit today, but I still stand by that. But schools are adding pepper spraying drones to help combat active shooters. The plastic non-lethal aircraft can smash windows and ram attackers. They'll be ready in a handful of schools in Florida, Georgia, and Colorado. So a drone attack. Washington Post schools in at least three states will be equipped with drones this year that can smash windows pepper spray active shooters if teachers report a threat. At least nine schools will have storage boxes that house the plastic non-lethal aircraft. The drones, which are activated by teachers, are capable of reaching a shooter within 15 seconds. They're designed to distract their targets by flashing strobes, blaring sirens, spraying them with pepper gel, or ramming them at 60 miles an hour. Once I get the drones on you, you just can't escape that, says a retired Navy SEAL and defense co-founder of this thing. The programs continue a wave of spending on high-tech security on campuses, multi-million dollar industry fueled by the threat of school shootings. According to the Washington Post, they've recorded 435 shootings since Columbine. They're fraudulent on that, but, you know, there is a fear. There's a lot. Do you see this as kind of something that's pie in the sky? I think the drones, based upon this, can have some degree of effectiveness.

The problem is in the chaos of this, are we going to see, release the drones? Well, is that going to happen? Who's piloting it? Like you said there in your little excerpt there, the Navy SEAL guy said, you know, once I've got you, it's over. Right, you're a Navy SEAL. What about Mr. Robinson, the history teacher? And if he gets a hold of the controls, is it over for the shooter then? Yeah, I don't know. The prep on this would seem to be pretty vast. Otherwise, you're going to be shooting at students, too. You got the, you know, friendly fire. Is there a training course on this? Yeah, I got to know more. Exactly. Yeah. I've always, and some of the school shootings that have been stopped, or at least stopped, not going on forever, have been people who were armed who were able to do it. But it's not for proof. And one of the most famous in Florida, we had some of those officers not go into the school. derelict of that and in the one in is it uvalde i believe in texas we had um real you might even call it cowardice and allowed that shooting to go on we had a story i remember from that though we had somebody who was did respond I think he was law enforcement, but he was something like that, and he's at his barber with the shotgun there and just took it from the barber, the shotgun. Texas, give me a haircut, give me a shotgun. Yeah, oh, yeah. While the other guys did not do anything at all. So as we get back to school, watch for this. Yeah, the execution of this is something that makes a lot of difficulty. Let's go to Michael in Wilmington. And Michael, you're on Talk Radio 1210. Hello, Michael. Hey, Dom. How are you? My good, sir. Thank you for taking my phone call today. You're welcome, Michael. I appreciate it. Just wanted to say real quick, most famous person that went to my high school was Bradley Cooper, the famous guy. You know, he's falling off a little bit, has he not? That we haven't heard as much. Yeah, he has. He's definitely been quiet, but he was a nice guy in high school. He was a couple years ahead of me, but super nice guy, you know, very approachable, nowhere near his status of fame that he is now, but just a super nice, normal guy. What school was that, Michael? Chairman Town Academy. Ah, okay. Where there are other accomplished people from there? There were. Yeah, Alvin Williams went to high school. He was about two years ahead of me. He went to Villanova. He played on that great, great basketball team with Kerry Kittles and Jason Lawson with Lapis. And I think he did play a couple years in the pros, if I'm not mistaken. I think he did. Yeah, kind of a low level. But yeah, there was quite a few really good athletes there. And Bradley Cooper obviously being such a famous Hollywood guy has been probably the biggest. But there's definitely some other really good people that went to my high school there. So, yeah, it is a mark of inspiration when you know these people, and particularly at the school, and Cheltenham used to really do that. Now they want to kick Benjamin Netanyahu out. That's the thing. Yeah, I mean, and that's ridiculous. I mean, for someone as internationally renowned as Benjamin Netanyahu, regardless whether you like them or you don't, you say the same thing about anybody going to a famous high school.

You can't not accept the guy. You just can't. You know, you've got to just accept him for who he is and what he's done and the power he has in prestige and just kind of you don't like him, just turn him the other way. But you can't not accept the guy, my personal thing. Oh, sure, without a doubt. I mean, I told you about the judge that I did. go after routinely, but she belongs in there. That was their judgment. She was prominent. Although, it would be like if a school had, well, where is he from in the suburbs? Henry, you usually know that. Larry Krasner. Oh, Berwyn? Is it Berwyn? I said Trudifrin and all that. Yeah, I don't know if Larry Krasner's in their Hall of Fame or not yet. I have to look that up. It would be Conestoga. Conestoga, yes. Okay. Okay. Conestoga, that's what Bucks is, is that Bucks County, Dawn? No, that's, I think it's right on the edge of Chester County on Nizelco. Yeah. Oh, that's right. That's right. Exactly. Yeah. So lastly, real quick, Don, just before I get to my side, just I want to make one quick reference. I would love to see a lot of these people get justice for what happened with the COVID thing, especially when, you know, people who weren't getting the vaccine, if you remember, were being called murderers. But unfortunately, in my opinion, like a lot of these people, you know, that are head of the NEA or head of the CDC or head of these other organizations that were so powerful. It's almost as if they're never going to have the justice we'd like to see because they are so powerful and because these organizations behind them are always going to protect them. I just, I want to see it. I just don't see it happening. So I just, I truly don't see the justice we'd like to see happen. A lot of these people that cause so much damage to so many people and children. It's just a shame. And I'm going to be thinking tomorrow, the question to ask is, do we think that in the future? We're not going to see the same sort of tactics used. I think the people that are in Democrat Party now, it would be even worse than before. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, it's going to be an interesting... You know, questioning with Anthony Fauci, hopefully he doesn't pull any of this, you know, he takes the fifth. And he really, I think whatever goes on between him and Rand Paul is going to get pretty important. Oh, yeah, this is. We'll have play by and play. I still would tag Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in, but yeah, I think Rand Paul would be very good. Yeah, it would be great. So to get to my side down, the great countdown I thought of. As much as I was trying to practice before you got me on the line, I can't do it really well. But there's crazy guys at the auction houses that are talking a million, a million miles a second. Oh, come on. We need a little bit of it. Come on. Yeah, cool. Go, give me 45, 45, 55, 50, give me 50, 45, 45, go once, going twice, third time, sold. Nice. The auction countdown. Very nice. Go to the car auction in Mannheim. I had to go there once, and it was unbelievable.

the stuff these guys said i don't know who was selling who was buying people are yelling all kinds of things okay uh 855 8 3 9 i only had to do one of those for rose friend at the zoo one of those auctions and that's when Josh Shapiro walked in i didn't see him well we know the reason All right. Josh, what would you bid on this? 855-839-1210. It is the lightning round next. Great question. Hit us all-time countdown. Let's get a winner. Tom Chiodato on Talk Radio 1210, WPHD. The time has come for the final test. We usually call us the lightning round. Guy Sharaki weighing in and saying Trudifer in East Town is his district. Conestoga is where the softball players play when they go to high school. I think that Krasner, I don't know, we had them riding a horse there or something. In the past. Oh, really? Yeah. Maybe more than his bike with Frankie scales. All right, it is the lightning round. Hit it. By the way, Jim Jordan tomorrow on board at Dom Show 1210. Your advice, how would you coach him up to face Larry Krasner? I mean that. You can't see Krasner as a pushover. He is the best. meaning the worst of all these progressive D-Aids. In the ring, he'll do anything. He is insufferable. Remember Judge Dugan telling him, hey, when he mentions your wife, that's it. Hey, moderator, shut up, sit down. Larry, you punk, stand up. When you have the opportunity with this guy, seize upon anything he says where there's opportunity. The cockiness in Washington with this will be second to anything we've ever seen. All right, let's go to Jeanette in Northeast Philly on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Jeanette, what's yours today? Hey, Tom, so I want your listeners to know that there's 150 more shopping days until Christmas. And the countdown starts on December 26th, when you're not allowed to say Merry Christmas anymore. You just have to start shopping. Let's tell you know. Thank you. Let's start the countdown to when we can say happy New Year again. Let's start that. It's only a few days. Why not? You had to say that, though. Roast driving right now. I'll probably get a text. Only 150 days of Christmas. What are we getting, everybody? Oh, my. That's why you can't have Christmas in July like they had down the shore this week. It just triggers all this other stuff. Can I get a giant Santa to put outside right now during July? Chef Davin, Oakland on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, chef, what's yours today? Mine is the time, 1943, the place of VolgoGrad, a kicking clock, and while the top clock kicked.

The Russians would tell the Germans, every seven seconds, a German soldier dies in Stalingrad. And then they would do the seven seconds countdown and then play tango of death. Unbelievable. Yeah. It was in the freezing cold. Stalingrad, too. I'm watching the eulogies, by the way. for Lindsey Graham, and I've always been a fan. If you can do a eulogy that's both really on point, the core of a person, humor, and then the uplifting part, it's good for everybody. Whenever you attend a funeral, if you know the person, and it actually hits. And I think it's like a great film, even if it's not fully true. Come on. Are we going to have fact checkers jump up? The fact checker. That's not true. I can see it the Trump funeral in the future. I guarantee it. Yeah, the fact checker jump though. CNN, 10 fact checkers. No, Trump didn't do that. They do it in the cathedral. This is Jake Tapper. Just wanted you to know. That's not true. Let's go to Drew in Upper Darby. Hey, Drew, good afternoon. Hey, Dom, thank you so much. You know, Dom, I kind of have a... Dead Man Walking theme here, and I'm going to go with a person's execution, whether it's the date or the time, like the execution might be 1158 at night, and they're waiting. They probably just got done eating their last meal, which... May have been a bacon double cheeseburger, because that's what it seems like their last meal always is. Yeah, the Billy Bob Thornton, sir. We're always going with the bacon double cheese, but you're not exactly. Bring me to French cuisine, yes. And they're waiting, and they're sweating it out. They're waiting for that phone the ring, you know, hoping it's the governor. You know what I mean, Dom? Wait a minute. That might be a great side question. I'm always looking for it. The phone call you dread or the phone call you're waiting for. That's, I think there's potential there. Yeah. Right. Like, if it's a doctor's appointment, you know what I mean? But after some blood work or something. Hi, thanks, man. All right, so the countdown, the death, I got him there in the end. Bruce in the nervous. Hey, yeah, Bruce. Welcome in. Hey, Don. Don, let me get this straight. The guy who called the Oriler, he said his father taught Amelia Earhart. I messed up on that. It was the Fox and Friends. I thought I had Amelia Earhart. That would be hard to beat. That's what I thought, too, you know, because if he did, you could have told her out a fly, really. That would have helped. But either way, my answer today is, you know, in the James Bond, 007 movies at the, near the very end of the movie, Dr. Knows, ready to detonate the nuclear bomb, and James Bond, Sean Connery, is running through the plant. And you hear it over the loud speaker. 20 seconds to detonation. 15 seconds to detonation. Anyway, you know, eventually he saves the day, and he also gets the girl in the end, so you can't beat that. Nicely play for it. Yeah, those films where they're giving you the seven seconds to denon, McGiver, you know, they have to step in speed. He's underneath. Boss.

Doing it. All right, Phil and Delaware is the final hitter today. Side question. Phil, what's yours? Hey, good afternoon. Happy Hanukkah. Thank you, Phil. I figured happy Hanukkah and New Year's works hand in hand. There you got, why not? So we have 45 days until Zohran Mamdani eats some cake and just has to sit out from 9-11. That's a good one, 45 days to 9-11. The countdown is on the 25th. It's over 25,000 signatories starting to show today of people that say, no. This guy doesn't belong at the 9-11 ceremony. He's going to go, though. It looks like. But the families are starting to mass around this. And, you know, would it be appropriate that one of them calls him out there and says, Why you don't belong here? You don't have to sit there and take it in a moment like that. It would be like Larry Krasner going to go to a law enforcement event. They have blocked Krasner at hospitals several times when officers have been shot, particularly if they were killed. Hundreds of them blocking it. He showed up with the Starbucks coffee, which he always seemed to have. All right, Kirk, who did you like today? I loved all of them. But I'm definitely going with Jeanette from Northeast with 150 more days to... That was a pretty... It was a good call, too. How about you, Anne? Yeah, I got a second her call as much as it bugs me. Okay. I also like Michael Wilmington with the kind of auctioneer, you know, the countdown there. I liked Bruce and Northeast with the bomb exploding as well. Nothing for Bill, though. You guys were all up by those. I just had to cut him. I just had to cut him off my list. Oh, man. I thought that was the top two or three. All right, the 150 days of Christmas was timely. Michael, we appreciate, though, always in the call when you do something active like that. That was a pretty good auction. All right. Tomorrow, already we know that Jim Jordan will be on the show. If you have a tip on how to deal with Larry Krasner, see, I think. Too many times when people have such hatred, they overlook it's about winning. It's not just about being mad about Krasner. It's about putting Krasner on the spot, which... is more difficult than you might think. Just like tomorrow with Rand Paul, it's not just screaming and all that. It's drawing Anthony Fauci out now that we have the diaries to get Anthony Fauci on the record and possibly, well, there are civil suits, certainly, that can hit Anthony Fauci. As far as the pardon and everything he's pardoned for, I'm not exactly sure. That's totally correct. So full coverage of Anthony Fauci tomorrow, and I'll ask Jim Jordan about that. and his showdown with Larry Krasner over what Krasner does overall, I think, but particularly on illegal immigration. I'm telling you, Krasner will have an opening statement he's going to go down Broadway or Broad Street. Right at him. That's the way he operates. Got to be ready for it.

All right, afternoon show is next for three big hours. Follow on Twitter until tomorrow at Dom Show 1210 at Dom Show 1210. And we'll be available to see what developments happen around Mikie Sherrill. Great guest today, though. The guest on COVID was fabulous stuff. Afternoon show next. You're listening to Dom Giordano and then the afternoon show on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. Dom Giudano, weekdays noon till 3. From Talk Radio 1210, WPHD.
