Mike Drop, hosted by former Navy SEAL Mike Ridland. How would you characterize your prowess? I'd say my style is that I just kind of outwork everybody until I get there, because I'm not a quitter. It's just you, and that's yourself. Everything else is team-oriented. The motivation, it was a sort of anger at myself for being weak. That ends up being the driving factor. That anger, that pride, that ego, I think it's a muscle. It gets stronger. When you take that voice seriously, you start to change your life. Mike Drop, follow and listen on your favorite platform. Good to be back with you here on Yaffe Live. This is Talk Radio 102.3. I am Tennessee's voice of reason. Chattanooga's conservative conscience. I see this from the Hill. We were talking about it earlier. Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley emerged the victor in the hand-fought Democratic primary for Wisconsin governor against Democratic Socialist State Representative Francesca Hong early Wednesday, giving the Democratic establishment a much-needed boost in light of recent progressive wins. And it was kind of a surprise because some of the polling suggested that she would have like a double-digit weed. They thought she was going to easily win and she ends up losing. So lots of talk about there. And we will right now with Steve Abramowitz. He is with the Heartlane Journal. You can see all this stuff at Heartlanejournal.com. He is also the host of the new show, which you can catch right here, Talk Radio 102.3, 7 a.m. Saturday morning, America the Beautiful with Steve Abramowitz. Steve, how are you, sir? I am great. America is beautiful. Thank you for that introduction. I appreciate it, man. Yeah, and we'll talk more about, you know, what you got coming up on your show this week and everything else. But I do want to get your reaction to these elections. We had the one, like I said, in Wisconsin, kind of a surprise. Republicans, some are actually sad about this because they thought Hong would be easier to beat in the general. But what do you think? And that was not funny. They try to do this thing like says, okay, we'll take the worst one and run against them because they're easier to be. But then, you know what happens? You end up like Seattle and they end up getting a super majority and you can't get them out of there. So, you know, the old. Yeah, that's true. Vote your way into socialism, but you cannot vote your way out of it. So you take a big chance by doing that. So I'd much rather see her, you know. killed in the crib, so metaphorically speaking, I don't wish violence on anybody than to have her be a formal candidate with all the money in the world like Nashville, Tennessee is going to have, not just Nashville, the whole state. This is what's going to happen. They're going to have a Democrat who've made it through the primary to run against Marsha Blackburn. And who knows, we've seen. Sometimes they play with the vote. Sometimes they get all the money in the advertisements and the name recognition. Like you just can't underestimate these folks. So I'd rather have them out of the primary than in the general. And that's a cautionary tale for Republicans. Don't mess with your own primaries because you might get somebody you don't really want.

you know after the election's over yeah and you know it's it's interesting too because You know, that's one of the reasons why Trump is there, right? A lot of Democrats are like, oh, I want Trump to win the primary because he'd be easy to beat in the general. They said that in 2016 and in 2024, and then they lost. So Republican, you know, is actually my case. And it just happened last night because the gal you're talking about was a Bernie person. And they did this again to Bernie, technically, if it's a person, because that's what they did to Bernie to get Hillary first. And then. Kamala Harris second and both of them lost. So I'm just telling you, when you mess with your own parties primaries, you are messing with fire because the people will vote for who they want to one way or the other and they're just going to hold it against you, which makes me, if you go look at my Twitter feed, I posted George Washington's complaint about parties. Parties are just inherently a bad idea, but America's been living with them for so long. We think it's a tradition. We didn't start out with parties. You voted for the meritocracy, the person or woman or man who you thought was the best for the job. You start messing with it. You get disappointed voters who don't come back next time. That could be why we have so much apathy. So, you know, earlier in the show, I was talking about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's comment, and she said, woke one was crazy. You know, trying to brush off one. I mean, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's probably going to run for president. But two is woke two? I mean, if there's a woke one, I guess we're in woke two now. Is that going to be any better? I mean, hey, guys and gals, she's single again. She just broke up with her boyfriend. So, you know, there's that. And she froze her eggs. I guess now we know why because she didn't want his. DNA for the future generations of progressive bartenders in America. But I hope she does one because she's like the Kamala Harris. I know I just contradict myself and said, you know, you can't not be fired. But since I'm not a Democrat, I don't have to vote for them. I would much rather have just about any Republican than Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez always on camera. Yeah, the problem is she, you know, she's clever. I keep telling people that. I don't think she's smart in terms of an intellectual says a lot of things that are wrong, but she's clever in terms. She's good at getting attention for herself. I mean, did you? Oh, yeah, she's the first clickbait, Twitter, you know, famous politician after Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian. So I give her credit for all that. But that's kind of old school now. When she talks, she just proves over and over again. She's not as good as. as Obama was, not as good as even Clinton was at that game. So, you know, good, go on TV, say what you want to say like Kamala Harris did, and prove to us you're not qualified as opposed to making us guess that you're everything we want you to be and then some. So is this...

So we have the loss here of Hong, Francesca Hong, out of Wisconsin. Has the Democrat Socialists, have they kind of hit their limit here? Is the backlash already started even within the Democrat Party? Or is this just kind of the exception? Well, there were some establishment types on the left that were coming out. Paul Pagala, I don't know if you know, him, Carville, the Ragin Cajun. These are old school old men Democrats who said, you know, there's a problem here. Bill Maher said the same thing. But that doesn't matter because where the energy is and the money is certainly with them. So no, I wouldn't count them out because now we have to watch this race in Michigan for Senate. Abdul El-Sayed, yeah. Correct, correct. I had a hard time with Kamala Harris, but yeah. So, yeah, they'll always come back for more. They're like the Energizer Bunny meets the Terminator monster. He, you know, it's cut its head off and the hand keeps coming. So you can never let the Democratic Socialist of America, they never turn your back on them. And certainly don't turn your wallet on them because they want it. And they're out there, you know, on the news, this is just. just this weekend taking credit for every win and ignoring every loss because they know they can come right back. And it kind of plays into my old theory, too, that we like to say that we have a trifecta in the Republican side in D.C. where we have, what, 52 senators and the majority in Congress, whatever? Well, I don't think that's really true because no Democrats are really Republicans. But there are a lot of Republicans that are really Democrats. And sometimes it's like 8515 in the Senate on a good day, more like 90-10 when you look at things like the Save Act. So I'm just saying that you can never assume that just because they run as or have a label of Democratic Socialists of America, they're not right in that real house. I mean, Bernie Sanders never became a Democrat. He even ran for president as an independent. He's never done it. So you just can't trust these guys. Speaking with Steve Abramowitz of the Heartland Journal talking about someone you can't trust, Dr. Anthony Fauci, right? So it came out with these text messages where in private he was expressing concerns about possible side effects when it comes to the second dose of the Moderna vaccine for women who are pregnant in the first trimester. But publicly, he didn't say any of that. And this kind of goes with the whole idea of. You know, why couldn't they just be honest to begin with? It was just all about control, right? What do you think? Well, yeah, no. I mean, it was also about money. So first it was his diaries, right? Then it was emails. Now it's text. So, I mean, he's going down to Bill Gates when he was at Microsoft rabbit hole or digging his own grave, really because he forgot the cardinal rule. Don't ever put anything online. You don't want your mom to see on the front page of New York Times. because it will end up there. And so now this time he thought the Times was his friend and the rest of the media, but he was wrong because he's not in government anymore, so he was a useful idiot, and so they don't need him anymore. So they are willing to air his dirty laundry, and he's disgraced. I mean, I hope he loses his MD license, but he's 85, so it's not like he's really practicing. But he also lied to Congress.

He went out and said that there was a 2% mortality rate. This is during the crisis. Think back for what you were doing during the crisis. You're like six feet apart at the grocery store, standing in line outside at Home Depot, you know, mandatory shops. All the things that went along with it was made up because he said it was 2% mortality, which is a pandemic when it was actually 0.02 in his diary, which is not even the flu. So that was bad. Then, which is a lot, it's a crime, by the way, to let Congress. And then he knew the shots in the first trimester caused miscarriages. So that, you know, was an abortion shot. He went on TV and said 20,000 people were tested. It's fine. Well, that was a lie. And that's... I'm not going to say the M word, but that's certainly not safe and effective and certainly caused a lot of harm. So if I was a parent who lost the child during the era of COVID, I think I'd be getting a lawyer real quick going after him and his royalties and his book deals and everything else for a civil suit like they got OJ on and even the CDC. went out there and towed his line. So the trust in the whole medical and science industry is destroyed. I just wrote an article. You can read it at heartlandjournal.com talking about the decline of parents willing to let their kids have any shot. So if polio is still a good one to get, if MMR is good or not, I don't know, but no one's getting any of them because of this man and his complete destruction of the trust in the medical institutions that have existed for decades. And that's on him. Yeah, and that is one of the problems, is there's always a... what happens and then the reaction to it. And it goes back to the distrust. He could have just been honest. When it came out with the vaccine, they could have made it voluntary. They could have said, look, it doesn't stop the spread, but it can help with the symptoms. And look, if you're pregnant in the first trimester, here are the possible risks. Take it at your own risk. But they just couldn't do that, right? They couldn't just be honest with it. No, no. He couldn't do it because he would have gone to jail. He was literally covering up the gain of function research that was done offshore in Wuhan, China, because they got kicked out of America at UNC and Madison, Wisconsin labs. because they weren't allowed to do it and he funded it. He signed off on every single movement of money to keep that thing going. If he would have admitted that, he would have gone down. I mean, he should have gone down in the 70s and 80s. What is his, you know, terrible treatment of AIDS patients with that terrible drug AGT. I lived in the Bay Area in that time. I remember that what he did with Beagles. We talked about this last week, you know, the Snoopies that he put in the cages with the fleas. He did plenty of mad scientist things that he should go down for, but this one.

globally, the whole world has people to this day. You may even know two or three who have injuries and don't know if it's because of that experiment that they were used for or. a complication of the COVID itself, which itself would not have existed if he hadn't funded the research to let it loose in the lab in the first place. So that man, one guy, it's really rare when you can say like one guy had a real big hand in this, he's it. And then all of his cohorts, of course, too. So no, he couldn't have come out and said, hey, guys, something happened here without taking culpability. And obviously his narcissism is so strong he would never admit being wrong. Would it cost him a fortune? He was the highest paid federal employee with right up until he resigned or whatever, retired. And now he's the highest paid pension employee in the history of the United States. And this is what we get for. That is crazy when you think about it. Speaking with Steve Abramowitz. He's with the Hartwayne Journal, also host of the new show, which you can listen right here on The Talk Monster on 7 a.m. Saturdays called America the Beautiful. And talk about your show a little bit. Yeah, did you hear it? Well, I did. Yes. I mean, I was the one to put it together. I'm open. I'm good. I mean, I've never done radio before. The biggest difference in radio and podcasts, which I've had five years of experiences in those don't commercial breaks. I mean, I love commercials, but although it is nice you get to take a sip of water and you can take pause, whereas you can't do that with podcasts either. But, yeah, I love it. I'm basically looking for stories across America and sometimes the world because America does impact the world. that are beautiful and that we can actually talk about and say you know it may have started off bad but we cleaned it up or we we got on the right side of it because america has a big history of that you know we can keep big things like slavery we got rid of it we didn't keep it going because of how lucrative let's say it was so yeah america is beautiful and i just want to share that with everybody so every saturday four o'clock in the central time and uh seven a m eastern time i believe you can hear my thoughts on why America is so beautiful.
