87 segmentsGood morning. Welcome. This is hashtag Lex. I have to admit this is one of my favorite hours of the month. We're minus one, but we're not actually. We have Brian Gettle on the phone this morning. Brian, you made the right choice because we've got a serious accident over there between you and us that you probably just heard us talking about. So you were smart to stay home. Thank you, Jack. That's at least one smart thing that I'll do today. Hopefully there'll be at least one other. You are the first assistant, Jasmine County attorney. And what is it when are you going to be out on the loose? April 30th, 2027. Wow. I'll be here for you know it. Exactly. Time is flying. And Bill Adkins is here. Excuse me. I've been wrestling this all morning. Bill Adkins is in the studio with Sir. How was your drive down from Williams Town? Wait a minute. You're not on. Now you're on. It wasn't bad until I hit the off ramp at Newtown. It was backed up. If you're getting, it was backed up. But once it got on Newtown, it wasn't so bad. And you said the thunder was horrendous last night. Oh, last night, they were right over top of us. I mean, every time it just made the noise, the house shook. Did you lose power at any point? Not this time. The last time we had, matter of fact, there might have been a tornado in the area yesterday, but the last time I lost power for three days. This time I did not, but other people did. Yeah, we saw a lot of outages up in the Cincinnati. I know you're further south than that, but up around Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky, there were a lot of. outages. I don't remember so many outages in Cincinnati ever. No, this was pretty severe for the local area. It took a long time for other people. I had three days out, but other people were like a week or so out. Yeah. So what's up with you, Brian? We're just cruising into the fall, getting ready for that to take over. I have my... daughter and son-in-law and grandkids living with us right now as he transitions out of the military, so they'll be with us until December. And so that's a lot of fun. Yesterday, my granddaughter said was Papa's Day, and she planned all kinds of fun things for me to do when I got home from Oregon. I said, why did I deserve this? And she said, because he worked so hard, so she was very sweet about that. And how old is she? She's seven years old. How sweet? Oh, what a pretty name. Yeah, I like that. Okay, Senator Rand Paul was with us here the day before, the day of, maybe or the day before the big hearing in Washington about Rand Paul and about. I'm sorry about Anthony Fauci, thank you, about Dr. Anthony Fauci. And let's start with that. What the hell? What are you, Bill, what is? You didn't start a business just to keep the lights on.

Yes, Anthony Fauci was pardoned through January 19th of 25th. What was he pardoned for doing? Good question. The pardoned was very vague, specified nothing for any act that he might have done that was offensive to the law. Now, he's called for a hearing before Rand Paul's committee. Right. And he asserts the Fifth Amendment, which is his right, which Donald Trump did 450 times in one hearing, by the way, which Senator Rick Scott did 70 times after he stole $1.7 billion from Medicare. And the argument is that because he was pardoned, you know, he shouldn't have asserted it. Well, you know what? After you're pardoned. You can't commit another crime. And it was a perjury trap. If he had answered the question that Josh Hawley asked about the rug. in that chamber, they would have said he was lying and been lying to Congress, etc. It was a perjury trap, and I think he did the right thing. Really, it was much ado about nothing. Would you have advised him to do that? Absolutely. Take the fifth and every question asked. Absolutely. If you're going to take it on one, you take it on all. That's right. If you answer one question, you are opened up. So if he'd answer the question about the rook, which was what Halle was trying to cause him to do. Right. He'd have had to answer all questions. I think he did the right thing. And I think it was a ludicrous performance, somewhat Trotsky-ite show trial that, or let's go even further to the... Not far past, but more to the president. More like a Joe McCarthy hearing, really. Okay. Very much so. All right. I appreciate that answer. Brian, it's your turn. Bill has regurgitated all the far left wing talking points precisely what he said and what they're saying is ridiculous. Anthony Fauci had to be called on the carpet. It wasn't a perjury trap. If you tell the truth, he can't be caught in a perjury trap.
And Bill's wrong about the legal arguments that Anthony Fauci has made. Supreme Court case said that you cannot assert your right against self-incrimination if you've been pardoned. That goes back a long way. And it's not correct that if you answer one question, then you have to answer all of them. cases on point directly saying that that's not true. Now, what has happened, though, is Anthony Fauci has put himself in a position where now he can be charged with interfering with the congressional investigation. Because he did not have the right to assert the Fifth Amendment, he can now be charged with that, and there's been a criminal referral to him. What Bill is blithely skipping over is the fact that we now have Anthony Fauci's Dear Diary, I'm so popular today, with all the incriminating evidence about how he was lying to the American public on numerous topics. And now we have his cell phone records texting, indicating that he knew just how damaging. The second round of shots were to pregnant women in their first trimester, and they ignored it. They didn't warn the public about it. There was a study out of Massachusetts where 900 pregnant women had received the second round of the vaccine, and out of those 900 women, there were 104 miscarriages. I said, well, that's not too bad, but if you look further into the data of the 900 women. a hundred and twenty seven were in their first trimester and that was the danger zone the first trimester hundred and twenty seven of the nine hundred women uh... were in their first trimester that's where all one hundred and four miscarriages occurred was within those 127 first trimester. Nobody was warned about that. Well, you have misstated that, you have misstated that study. You've misstated that study. It's 12.7% of those individuals in that circumstance had miscarriages. That 12.7% number is almost identical to the numbers of miscarriages with people that did not take or in prior periods had miscarriages. It did not change. Well, that is, read the article. I did read the article. Did you? Of the 900 people, only 127 were in their first trimet. 12.7%. Let me ask you this. Last night, a congresswoman, I forgot where she was from, said 82% of them had miscarriages, which was also a lie. That's correct. That study says 12 points. No, it's not correct. That's not correct. That's a lie. 82% of those people that... Bill, it's easy. It's easy math. Try this. Divide 104 miscarriages by 127 women in their first... No, the number that you utilized to calculate the number of miscarriages, percentage of miscarriages, was the whole study, 900. Okay? 900. Was there... But 800 of them weren't in the danger zone. Did this diary... Brian, do you believe that this diary...
confirmed that Anthony Fauci knew that but ignored the facts? Those were texts, and yes, they confirmed that he knew that he was talking about it with and discussing it, saying, oh, oh, this is out there. And then they said, well, we're not going to do anything about it. It was discussed. The study that Bill is again distorted. It was a possibility, not as a certainty, okay? And it's amazing how that Anthony Fauci's diary can be released, but they cannot release the Epstein files, by the way. That's one thing that's always been rather. Rather amazing. They can release that, but not the Epstein file. Well, I can imagine that Foggi went home after that hearing and wrote, Dear Diary, they were so mean to me today. I'm very popular. I don't understand it. Here's a text that says, why do you guys think no one else in Congress takes wasteful spending as serious as Rand Paul? Rand Paul, everybody, I think everybody takes wasteful spending seriously. That's why the Congress is not passing that $1.5 trillion defense budget that Trump wants. Rand Paul does come up with these. What's it, that festival that he cites? But he cites, you know, esoteric things. There's a lot of things in the budget. Pick and choose. They're cherry-picked the ones that you don't like. I think other people do the same thing. But on that defense budget, by the way, Think about this. $1 trillion for annual budget for years. We're running out of ammo. Where does that $1 trillion go? Grandpa wants to audit the Fed. I'd like them to audit the Pentagon. Yeah, the Pentagon is a good place to start. Lloyd... Secretary of Defense Lloyd under Biden was just an absolute joke, and the wastefulness that occurred during the Biden years. He must really be impressed with the headshel. But, you know, it's just... Congress likes the money. That's why they go to Congress. They like to spend money, and both parties pretend like they're concerned about the debt, but neither one is. The Democrats especially don't care about it. They have never found a government program that they won't overfund, and they have never found a tax that they won't overtax. Okay, $35 trillion of the current national debt has accrues since 2001, and $16 trillion of that under the presidencies of Donald. Trump. So, yeah, you're right. Both parties don't care, I guess. All right, 859, 253-559. We've opened that can of worms. Let's open another one. What about the Democratic, what you call the communist takeover bill of, I'm sorry, Brian, of the Democratic Party? Right, and I've been saying that for months, and Bill Maher has finally come around and agreed that the Democratic Socialists of America are actually communist. That's their goal. The U.S. Soccer Podcast. I'm your host, Megan Klingeberg. And after interviewing so many dudes during this Men's World Cup, I'm so happy to be back with my U.S. women's national team players. I know the U.S. men's national team has changed how I think about myself, how I think about being an American, how I think about being on a team. It's one year out from that.
World Cup and we're going to talk about the brightest prospects in U.S. soccer. You ready? I'm ready. Let's do it. The U.S. soccer podcast presented by Henko. Follow and listen on your favorite platform. Talk about controlled government controlling the means of production. They talk about controlling or eliminating private ownership of property. They have radical ideas about doing away with our constitutional system of government, eliminating the Senate, getting, making this. President and Supreme Court subservient to have a number of doing away with President's radical, radical ideas. This is the Democratic Socialists of America. They've taken over the Democratic Party. Julian Epstein, former legal advisor to President Obama, said it's a civil war in the Democratic Party. Hasan Piker, one of the leaders of the DSA, their operational system is to get into the Democratic primaries, win the Democratic primaries. And when they do that, they're going to purge moderate Democrats like Bill. Bill will be purged, and that's a perfect word for communists to use purge because they purged 100 million or so people in the 20th century by killing them to get them out. And now Hasan Piker is promising to purge traditional Democrats out of the Democratic Party. How many businesses? How many businesses has Trump and his administration taken an interest in, a portfolio interest in percentage? of their stock. Is that socialism? Your Honor, the answer is irrelevant. No, it's not irrelevant. It's exactly what you're talking about. Socialists are not, the Democratic Socialists of America are not talking about taking over government interest, okay, or over business interest. By the way, in Wisconsin, the DSA candidate just lost to the moderate candidate. And by the way, by the way, you're probably grieving over this. Mike Lindell, the election denier lost in Minnesota last night. But yeah, Mr. Sayyed did win in Michigan. They win on the issues. You want to label these people, socialist, communist, Stalinist, and if Stalin has a match in this government, in this present day, it's Donald Trump, purging the Defense Department right now, by the way, of various skilled military individuals. But the Democratic Socialists of America, they win on issues, populist economic issues. And that is important. You want to label these people with something out of the 50s of Joe McCarthy. I mentioned them earlier by red baiting. And that's just totally false. This is the 21st century, not the mid-20th. Bill and Brian, 859, 253-559. And let's go to the phones. And Bobby is next. Bobby, good morning. Hey there, Jack. How are you doing this morning besides cool and wet? Listen, Bill's math has me a little bit confused. Okay. You know, when Brian expressed that 82% of the women who took the shot miscarriage within the first trimester. And then Bill argued that it was 12% or something like that. I'm assuming that he means, you know, Brian's talking about women who, who, you know, of 127 women in their first trimester, 107 or so, he said, said, miscarriage. And so that's 82%. He's correct. So is Bill saying that 82?
2% of the women with or without the shot should expect a miscarriage at some point in their life. I'm saying the sample was not 127 people. It was 900 people. The article specified there were 900 in the sample, not 127. He's talking about 127 miscarriages total, I think, and is what it said. No, no, Bill. Again, and Bill is always confused. Bill is always confused, but this math is so easy even Al Gore could do it. There were 900 women in the study. Only 127 were in their first trimester. That was the danger zone. There were 104 miscarriages. All 104 miscarriages were for those 127 women in their first trimester. The other... 775 weren't in danger. They weren't covered by this. But she covered that up, that if you're in your first trimester, you were 82% in this study likely to have a miscarriage. There were 900 women in this study. It was of 900 women, not of those 127. You're saying 82% of those. 127, maybe you're right, 82% of 127 had some sort of a factor that you're talking about. But the idea that was being told was that 82% of 900 had had. No, there's 82% of 127, and the 127 were in the danger zone. All right, Bob, Bobby, does that help, Bobby? Well, it does, but we also need to consider something. Yeah. You don't get to the second trimester or the third trimester without going to the first. So if 82% died in the first trimester, I mean, just think about that. I'd like to read the article to you. If I could find it again, I'll look it up and we'll talk about it before the end of the show. How about that? Thank you for your time, gentlemen. I appreciate it. Thank you, Bobby. 859-253-959. Let's see. Let's do a couple of texts here if you all don't mind. Does Bill think Anthony Fauci did nothing wrong concerning COVID? Anthony Fauci probably made a lot of mistakes, you know. But the Brookings institution, a think tank, says that Trump's inaction is in action. caused about 750,000 of these deaths or he stood by while they occurred. Did Trump do everything right? Did Anthony Fauci do everything right? I mean, you know, I have yet to take the UV light and bleasance injection, but there's a lot of things out there they could have done differently. I think that Trump abdicated leadership to the states and set by saying that it was a lot. Hang on, hang on, did Anthony Fauci, in your opinion, Bill, do anything criminal? No, not at all. Not at all. Okay, Brian. All right. So what we have to look here is that more people died under Biden in his first year when we had the vaccine than died under Trump. So this thing that Trump did something wrong is ridiculous. Trump was at the worst part of it when it was first hitting unless people died during that period of time than under Biden in the first year with the vaccine.
Second, the vaccine was not effective. They lied to us about the effectiveness of the vaccine. Third, Anthony Fauci, and I said this at the time, was not qualified to make the determination that the entire country had to be shut down. His only experience, his only expertise was in infectious diseases. He did not take into account the fact that the psychological damage, the number of addicted people who were isolated and died of their addictions during that period of time, the damage it did to the children, the damage it did to the economy. He had no expertise. And I even sent an FOIA. to the national health saying, tell me all of the learned treatises that Anthony Fauci studied on these other topics. Let's go back. Wait, wait, wait, who was in charge? Who was the president? Who was running the country? Anthony Fauci did not close those states down, okay? Those governors did on occasion. Trump, let me list to you what Trump said about COVID. He denied his existence. He denied it was a danger. He called it a Democratic mask, a hoax rather. He told people not to wear masks. He pushed dangerous treatments like the breach thing. He blamed China. He blamed CDC. He withdrew from WHO. He said it wasn't his responsibility. He withheld ventilators from governors. He questioned the credibility of medical experts and ignored science. He encouraged big gatherings. He asked states to reopen way too soon, and perhaps worst of all. He eliminated the pandemic team set up by Obama and Biden prior to COVID. outbreak. And more people died under Biden than under Trump. But he inherited a pandemic. What do you expect? Trump was not, Trump was not being given science. That's the BS line that Anthony Fauci and everybody else in the media and the left is trying to say that they were following the science. They were not. They downplayed natural immunization where you can develop a develop the ability to fight off the disease through natural processes. That has always been scientific. Over a million Americans died of that natural process you're talking about, Brian. Over a million people in this country alone, as opposed to and other millions in other nations. Let me ask you this. This is a text, and this is a whole different can of worms, our third can of worms this morning. Trump administration taking 10% of Nvidia. kind of sounds like communism. That goes back to what I was saying earlier about what Trump is doing. He's taking parts in many industries, Intel, Westinghouse, U.S. Steel. Is he a socialist because he's doing it? Sounds like it. Very much so. Control. No, it's absolutely not it. Oh, it's only a choice of a production. Holding a 10% stake in a company does not give you controlling interest of that company. It's not the government controlling that interest. And presidents have done this forever. We took a stake in GM when Obama bailed them out. We're taking an interest in it to get our money back when we lend these companies money to move forward.
We're taking a stockholder's interest, which is a smart thing to do, but it has nothing to do with socialism or capitalism. We are not controlling these companies at all. Then won't democratic sources take part in the profit of those companies that they might take over? They're just going to take them over, and they'll put us into, we'll have equal equality at that point when the DSA and the communist take over, and it's equality of misery. That's what happens with these. ideologies. They talk about being progressive. They are recycling the failed economic theories of the 19th century and saying we're progressive. They're not. This has failed over and over and over and over again. And you were saying that they are running and winning on the issues. They're only winning in the Democratic primaries. But now they're trying to cover up all their radical left-wing ideas. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was laughing about it yesterday. Oh, well, we were saying crazy things. But now you need to listen to what we're saying now, and they're disavowing. all those crazy radical ideas that they had. Sure. They're doing exactly what you said. They're winning in Democratic primaries, just like the Republicans are winning in Republican primaries on their issues, all right? And also, by the way, Democrat turnout is three to two right now. 1.5 million turned out in Wisconsin versus one million Republicans in Wisconsin. Were you breathing a sigh of relief, as they said in the news regarding the Crowley? Ahan victory? Not really. I hadn't really considered it at all. I mean, the election was going to turn out the way it did. I was finding the way Syed has done in Michigan and I find the way that it's worked out in Wisconsin. These people are going to win their elections. It's going to be distilled through both parties are going to distill their candidates into their nominees and we'll see how it works out in the fall. But what the Democrats are going to do with Republicans is we're going to hang Donald Trump around their necks. Yep. Bill is whistling past the grave as he heads to the river to get on the boat for his trip down to not. Well, Donald Trump has a lower approval rating than Jimmy Carter did in 1981. You've got James Carvel, the architect of Bill Clinton's wins in two elections, saying he will get out of the Democratic Party if Tom Hasan Piker and the DSA take control, which is their plan to do. So you're living in a denial world, Bill, if you're thinking that everything's hunky-dory with the Democratic Party. You know, when you go to run in a primary, you have to sign a pledge. We've got 60 days to figure it out, my friend. About 60 days. I don't think it's hunky-dory with either of the Republican or Democrats. I think they're both screwed up, frankly. I think that the Democrat, excuse me, the Democrats are doing quite well right now. You do? Because of the failed policies of Donald Trump. He's got his. economy, which is in the royal crapper. We've got the blunder in Iran where right now he's talking about wrapping it back up because he can't get the Iranians to the peace talks. And actually the Iranians are pretty much loosely to Donald Trump's Charlie Brown. And they're holding the football and he's missing it every time. Yeah, let's talk about that. Brian, what do you think about what's going on over there? Are we just going to keep? Going back and forth, and the poor stock market's going up and down. Groundhog. Yeah.
Yeah, and I've said this for several months, as Trump did screw up, and he thought that he could do what he normally does. About what? Three days? Yeah, bully his way into declaring victory, and the Iranians are not doing that. So he is stuck in, this is a quagmire. We're coming up on the seventh month of a two-week war. He doesn't have a way to get out of it. This is our version of Vladimir Putin and Ukraine, actually. So let me ask about this thing where he was snuck out. in the aircraft and was, you know, the new Air Force One that he got from Cutter. And they said there were, there was a real threat that the airplane may be shot out of the sky. And yet they let all the news reporters get on the decoy plane. More than that. They brought in the old Air Force one because the Cutter version was not secure. Yeah. And they put him on it. that we thought snuck him on it and he goes out the back into a catering truck into a military airplane right he takes his side uh his his his blonde girl with him and leaves Marco Rubio on the plane as well as todd Scott Bessent on the plane on the on original air force yeah yeah there's a scene from an old movie um dead zone where the president uh it's kind of a comeback he uh holds up a baby in front of him as somebody's trying to assassinate him i see trump that way What do you say, Brian? I mean, that's really pretty weird. Well, he did what Secret Service told him to do. So it was his Air Force one. The new one was flew to England. They do get him off, Secret Service gets him off and puts him on another plane. Now, you can say, well, they should have let the people on Air Force One. The press know about that, but they leak it. They would have allowed the people who are trying to kill him enough time to actually shoot down the plane that had no defenses. That military plane that he got on had no defenses against missile attacks and so forth. Air Force One has all of those things. They were safer. an Air Force won than virtually any other thing. But had they alerted the press, the press who hate Donald Trump so much, and you can hear even in Bill's voice how much he hates Donald Trump, they would have let it leak that that was happening and put him in even more dangerous. It wasn't just pressed on that plane. It was Marco Rubio and the Secretary of the Treasury and, you know, people like that. And here's the other thing is, I don't hate Donald Trump enough to wish him dead because his replacements are just as bad as he is. Wait a minute. What are you saying, Brian? I said the people on Air Force One are not as important as the President of the United States. If you've got to protect the President of the United States, that's who you've got to protect. If you're flying on the Air Force One as a press, that's one of the risk you're taking that you're going to get shot down. Okay. Well, certainly. The Air Force One did have defenses, the one that he got off of. The military plane left and did not use its communication. And, of course, the one in Britain, the cutter version, it was what it was. But here's the reason. Here's how bad it just demonstrates just the face of Donald Trump. It takes three planes to get him to and from Europe. Okay? I see it was in Turkey, I think. That was Turkey. Yeah, let's take our final break. We're going to be right back. This is good, guys. You guys are.
You guys are just getting better with age. A5. I know you're making some people mad, and that's okay, too. A59-253-559 is our phone line. It's also our Stuttgart Motors text line. We've got our good friends, Brian Gettle and Bill Adkins in the studio with us this morning. And sometimes these little naps, you know, just a few seconds at a time are good for me. We're in our last segment, gentlemen. We're running out of time. Our time. You guys, like I say, have been extra good today. You both get a gold star, but it is 951. So let's get to the text here real quick. Y'all are just seeing the smokescreen. This war has forced Saudi Arabia to build a pipeline bypassing the street. It's chess people, not checkers. I don't know about the pipeline situation he's talking about, but he's right about the Saudis. The Saudis and the Iranians have been rivals for decades. And after 79, we kind of hooked our star to the Saudis because we thought they would be our friends. And of course... 2001 and 9-11 proved the studies weren't necessarily our friends. We injected ourselves into a dispute that has caused us immense pain and cost us lives and treasure and economic pain. And I don't know how to ring the bell. And Trump just blundered when he pulled out of Obama's deal in, what, 17 or so, 18? And he's blundered with this war in Iran. I just read that he is willing to take the nuclear thing off the table. Which was his main deal that he's talked about the whole time. If he can get the straight-to-form moves reopened. What do you say, right? Hate America, blame America first. We got into this. No, Iran has been at war with us since 1979, and they've been killing Americans for over 50 years. Now, regarding the pipeline, which was the original question, and you have to sift through all the... B.S. coming from Bill and get back to the original question regarding the facts. Facts? You know this fax as all. They are working on making the Strait of Hermuz irrelevant with new pipelines. They should have done this long ago, but that's what they're doing now. I read a money article. Money guys. You need to listen to the money guys. Back up, back up, Brian. Ask me, answer the question, why is it suddenly that important to have a pipeline? Bill, I know you want to interrupt when I'm destroying your arguments, but they have said within two years the straight-of-her-moos will be irrelevant. So the pipeline will send the oil, and then 15% of the oil that we use in the world comes from through that straight? It affects the market. A lot of it's going to China. A lot of it's going to China. Do you know what a pipeline is? A pipeline is a big target. Big target. Yeah.
What do you say to that, Brian? That's why we don't have pipelines. So good thought there, Bill. I didn't say we don't have pipelines. I'm just saying you built one in Saudi Arabia area. It's going to be a big target for those people that operate there. They can't. Don't worry about it, Bill. You'll be fine. I'm not fine right now. The pipeline is going to eliminate straight of Hormuz and make Iran. The straight of Hormuz was open. Right. When the war began. It was. And now... It's not. It's not. How did it happen? But now President Trump is saying, we are in control. Yeah. Oh, he's a straight. Trump is saying that the United States is blockading the straits of four moves. Right. So all the Iranians, they're saying the same thing. So we're not, we're not blocking. You are. Or you are. You believe the Iranians. You were probably there sitting with rapt attention as Baghdad Bob was talking about how well Iraq was doing. Baghdad Bob is the press secretary for the White House right now. But you're applying for the job right now. I can tell that. You guys, I appreciate you both. We're out of time. You've got 15 seconds, Brian. I just want to say, hope everybody stay safe in this weather and watch those flash floods. They're dangerous. Absolutely right. It's an amazing climate circumstance. I wonder how that happened. Yeah. I wonder. Hey, thank you both. He got you at the end there, Brian. He got you right there at the end. The U.S. Soccer Podcast. I'm your host, Megan Klingeberg.
