COVID Vaccine Investigation and Water Softeners

Mark Belling podcast is presented by Uon For quality shipping and industrial supplies, youLine has everything in stock, visit youLine d. comot The Mark Belling podcast is a production of iHart Radio podcasts all over the United States right now The Marxist versus capitalist showdown is odd And both sides, I think, are now confronting The issue that's driving all of it, which is The cost of living, the cost of everything, affordability. The whole thing We're going to walk through some examples to begin today's podcast Let me start quickly in Florida Florida is a totally Republican state Republican governor Lame Duck But there's an election this fall and the Republicans expected to win it And both houses of the Florida leegislature Republican Just this week The Florida legislature voted to put on the ballot Cstitutional amendment eliminating residential property taxes. This is the ultimate capitalist response There's a property tax revolt going on all over the United States Pperty taxes which generally support local government have been exploding Ronda Santis, the outgoing governor of Florida has proposed simply getting rid of them For Residential properties with the following qualifications It has to be your principal residence that you live in So no rental properties, no business properties, no commercial properties just residential And you have to have lived in the residence for five years So this is aimed at providing the ultimate relief, not cutting property taxes, just getting rid of them for people who have laid in roots and have been living in the same place for five years or more The Lies are going nuts over this Remember, Florida doesn't have an income tax And now for people who are longer term residents They won't have a property tax either This is clearly Citalism on steroids, lower taxes, lower taxes, lower taxes In the meantime, continue to encourage a thriving business economy so that that generates the revenue to run the rest of government But in the meantime, back in Wisconsin There is a very real chance that we are going to elect an out and out Marxistist governor First of all, the Democrats may well win the governorship again. They may well take over the state legislature There' so far, at least front running candidate for governor is an out and out socialist and her views can clearly be described as Marxist It's why she's ling, Francesca Hong pick up at that point in a moment Have you ever been offered an add on option for premium or white glove service ULAN provides only one type of service the best from knowledgeable customer serervice available twenty fourth seven three hundred and sixty five to keeping every product in stock ready to ship the same day When your business needs quality shipping supplies, reliable warehouse equipment office furniture fast Contact Ya and get the best service becausecause Uine believes service is essential notot an option The Democratic primary for Governor of Wisconsin is in a little over two months, early August. There's a breaking story out in the last twenty four hours about the apparent Democratic front. And there's seven prominent and a few lesser Democrats running for government. just to the filing deadline yesterday. By the way, before I get to that, I'll give you this bullet point Bangstead, the buffoon from Minaca The guy who fronts a one million dollar Democratic super pack. through his outfit called Manacqua brerewing. I say fronts because the money comes primarily from donors, not him. Troublemaker up there is constant trouble up in Monaqua. Anyway after he was a after he was facing All sorts of blowback over saying that it was too bad that the latest necessation should attempt on President Trump failed And after videos surfaced of his arrest for harassing the owner of a newspaper across the street anyway, Banks had decided he's going to run for governor. He didn't get on the ballot. The filing deadline was yesterday. You have to come up with a minimum number of petition signatures to get on the ballot And Loudmouth Bangs that is so despised. he couldn't even get people. I mean, it's not that hard. I don't know what the number is. I think it's five thousand But the way you get it done is you got all of your goofy zealots like the goofs up in Monoca that hang around in his stupid bar The other fre st up aging hippies in the seventies that hang around him them to go out and get all the people the friends to sign nominating papers. M people will sign for anybody He didn't get enough signatures, The goof is off the ballot. Anyway back to the actual candidates with a chance There is a story now about Francescoca Han. She's getting national attention. The lefties are just starry eyed, that you might have an actual out and out admitted Socialist C clelearly Marxist. She says she doesn't like capitalism. She's described herself as an anti capitalist She's the one who said she wants to get rid of all prisons Well, the leftis across the country are wow, we might actually get one of these, not somebody who's socialist but doesn't admit it, but an out and out radical She's a member of the state legislature from, of course, Madison Well, there's a story today that might harm her It turns out and by the way, this is about the least surprising story out there. Francesca Hong has thirty thousand dollars in credit card debt and is being sued by her credit card lett. The one part of this, I suppose that would be surprising is you would think She would have gotten this thing taken care of before she ran for governor. You know, Oliver? High fllutin medicine friends get some of them to pay off the credit card debt so that this thing doesn't come out to haunt or in the middle of a campaign for governor. Her bank is capital one They filed a lawsuit In Dane County Circuit Court seeking to be repaid the twenty nine thousand three hundred and forty four dollars that she charged on a discover credit card since twenty eleven. Now As I say, there's nothing surprising about this This is exactly what Marxists are. They don't think they should have to pay for anything It's their whole mantra Everything should be free. The government should give me everything. Well, not everything is free, so she's got this card and she just spends it and doesn't pay off her credit card debts. That's how they think They think like the rich should pay for everything So what a surprise that she buys all this junk that she has. uses it and does it pay for it? And this is who a lot of lefties want to see as our governor. You know who's supporting her all the other people who think like her. I shouldn't have to pay for anything. I shouldn't have to work I should be able to live off of everyone else Everything's too expensive anyway Those two forces And I guess the extreme. are what's happening in this country At the same time, Florida is considering getting rid of a huge portion of its property tax in a state that already doesn't have an income tax Here you have in Wisconsin. Candidates now not way down in the polls, the front runder at this point. who don't pay their own bills, say that they want to close all the prisons and say they don't believe in capitalism This is the battle in the United States You have the radicals on the one end and the people that are pounding the table for capitalism on the other hand This is also playing out in California No Californiaet. As you know, I believe is a lost cause It's always possible things can get so terrible that you correct your ways. I just don't think it can happen in California It happened in New York in the nineties when they elected a Republican Rudy Giuliani as mayor There's been a few other instances of it happening. San Francisco got rid of their radical district attorney. Just got a regular old liberal who does believe in punishing some people But in California you've had a phenomenon two out and out capitalists running for two major jobs. Spencer Pratt's campaign for Mayor which has gotten incredible attention because of the very, very creative ads that he has created and peopleople inspired by his ads who have created others on his behalf He's running against Karen Bass, the incumbent mayor. they had the primary election yesterday. Now in California You don't run for office by political party. You are labeled as a member of a party But the Republicans and the Democrats run in the same primary. So you got a zillion candidates running. And the way it works is the top two go on to a runoff essentially advance to the Fitals If somebody would have gotten fifty percent, it's over That many candidates running. they didn't The same thing is going on for Governor of California, the whole state Some have felt that the there is a prospect for a Republican to win the governorship of California. becausecause while California is an overwhelmingly Democratic state, LA is like eighty percent Democratic. California as a state is sixty three sixty four If you look at those color coded maps California, the blue versus red, the areas that are red, Republican and the areas that are blue. The whole state is red. Except the coastline Which is where everybody lives So you got all this blue that runs up and down the Sade and all the red everywhere else Let's deal first of all with the mayor's race. in the mayor's race in California, Karen Bass the incumbent is the is the leader after they take forever to count the votes out there because they got mail in and all that. It takes two weeks to finish in California. But about sixty five percent is in enough to know Karen Bass is thirty four percent. Sencer Pratt is thirty So they're the two that will advance. The third candidate was and even bigger lefty than the incumbent Karen Bass Her name is the Tya Ryman and she received twenty two percent. So it's thirty four for Bass, thirty four point eight for bass, thirty point four for Prat twenty two point three for Ryman. Now that adds up to, let's see, sixty two point seven two point seven eighty seven. The other zillion other candidates on the ballot got the remainder This is considered to be a remarkable showing by Pratt given the fact that He'sning. He's Registered Republican And he was running as a capitalist, mocking and ridiculing everything that the Marxists had done there Here's the reality check though Almost every other candidate running for mayor out there is a leftty. So Karen Bass is likely to get now the support. all the other candidates who finished third and below all the attention that he got Pratt only got thirty percent in the primary. And I suspect that's all he's ever going to get So even though his campaign is fantastic and he makes incredible points, The reality is the people who live in Los Angeles are just Marxists and they would rather vote for more Marxism, even though it means that their city is gone to hell The governor's race. They had a similar thing It's again, Republicans and Democrats all in the same giant ballot and I'm king you everybody under the sun is running there. Remember, Gavin Newsom can't run. erm live it There are actually a couple of Republicans. There's a sheriff namedlianco, Bianco And Steve Hilton, who some of you may know, he was a host on Fox for a while They those two were running along with a trillion Democrats Now you recall that many of the Democrats self destructed. Eric Swalwell was the frontrunner The Cgressman from California The first revelation came out that he was having an affair with a Chinese spy. Amazingly that. Didn't you help But that's so Democrats in California so he's having an affair with the Cheneese sppice. So what? But then reports came out that he was sexually harassing numerous women and may have sexually assaulted several, and criminal charges are down on him Swalwell dropped out of the race The other California front runner was another congressman, Katie Porter beloved by the lefties out there. But then videos started surfacing of how absolute monster she is for her staff 'm j. I've only had Jason here working as the producer for a month Some of you thought I was too mean to Paul. I am telling you You take the absolute worst way I ever, ever treated Paul Multiply that by fifteen thousand times and that was a good day for Katie Porter Well, now there's video of this. So sheet torpedo, she ended up getting four percent of the votees swallell dropped out altogether But remember, there's a trillion other Democrats running And the leader of them is Xavier Bisera, yet another California Lty official The vote came down and so far at least again, this is a little bit closer. So you can't say this is for certain what the final is going to be because they still have all these mail and ballots account But as of right now, the leader is Steve Hilton, the Republican at twenty seven point eight percent Xavier Bisera, the Democrat is at twenty five point four This place is Tom Steyer ppathetic that Tom Syer is a billionaire abbsolute billionaires made a fortune. And he's a radical. He started by being the big Mr. climate change guy California with ads and it got him only third place. And remember the way it works out there, you're out T two advance So unless he surges and the votees not to be counted. he's at nineteen point six, but that's six points behind the second place candidate for Sarah Blanco, Chad Bianco, rather, who's a sheriff from I think San Bernardino County Republic he got eleven point three percent So if you add up the votes of Hilton and Bianco, the two Republicans, it amounts to thirty nine percent. So Hilton ran first in the primary. But the two prominent Republicans only combined got thirty nine percent. The other sixty one percent was carved up by all these zillions of Democrats. So again, I think you can presume that Pero will get most of those and he will win So while this was good showing for Pratt in L.A. and a good showing for Hilton in California. The reality is When you get to a general election with all the Democrats splitting all of these other votes, they're very likely going to win. whichich is my point here that California is a lost cause. Now you would think The fact that California four Really ever since Adold Schwarzenegger go back two decades Everything in California is controlled by the Democrats They've had a democratic governor forever. the California House overwhelmingly Democratic, the California Senate overwhelmingly Democratic. and their state Supreme Court is unanimous leftist. Absolutely everything in California is run by Democrats. You can blame Republicans in California for anything because they have zero power They run a few of the counties and cities, you know? in the easastern part of the state. That's it They're close to fifty, fifty in some areas near San Diego But beyond that the whole state' overwhelmingly democratic and the Democrats have all the power. Given the fact that California is a train wreck absolute disaster Their budget is so out of balance. Everything that they do Bundag They've been trying to build that bullet train between LA and San Francisco For decades The latest cost of this thing is somewhere near what their what the IPO for anthpic is going to be they can't do anything And the money that they do spend is on liberal idiacy Los Angeles would choose to have a great quality of life Thanks San Francisco Worse Eployment is through the roof Services are overwhelmed by illegal immigrants Businesses are leaving like crazy because the taxation and this is what happens with socialists Socialists believe, yes, everything should be free, but they pay for it by having massive taxes Businesses and individuals can leave and businesses have been leaving California like crazy So instead of taxing them this incredibly high rate They don't tax them at all because they're God So you would than Given that that's what California is doing All the rest of us would have to do is here in Wisconsin We've tried Marxism. There's California. Look, it doesn't work. You see what happens when you do it. In the meantime, let's look at Florida onene of the most booming states in the country. They're all Republicans Everybody in the world wants to move down there. businessusinesses are moving down there. They're doing so well that they're trying to now get rid of taxes rather than raise them think it'd be the easiest way to win the argument And I used to get this from conservatives all the time, you know, when a Democrat would say be elected president. Well, this iss a good thing because now they'll get in and they'll ruin everything and that'll win the argument once and for all. Except the problem with it is Liberals never change their own minds. they need a red pill moment Only some of them ever come around P people in the middle who generally aren't issue driven never connect the party to the policies. And they get their information disproportionately from the mainstream media. So the reality is that the absolute debacle of leftfter states paired with the thriving that's going on in Republican states in the suunbelt southeast elsewhere Boom we had in Wisconsin, where Walker was the gover it hasn't necessarily translated into winning the argument, but it's the best we have Our thoughts work. Theres are disasters And what's happened with the Democratic Party is There is almost no moderation in that party anymore. All of it is now radicalized There is one asterisk to this The one thing most swing voters are not yet ready to vote for is somebody who essentially acknowledges their radicalism The Democratic Party in Wisconsin is freaked over Francesca Han. The media, which is the mouth piece of the Democratic Party, they're going to run this credit card dead beatism story huge. They don't want her to win the Democratic nomination. They fear the one way the Republicans can win in November is if they actually have an out and out Commi as the Democratic candidate Rning They'd much rather have one of the Democrats Who's almost as far to the left, but doesn't admit it? likeike Crowley or Rodriguez They'd really love Joel Brennan to get it. So now they're going to have to do their best to torpedo Francesca Huang because they think that she could lose. I suspect in the end Hong will not win the nomination Democrats generally do what they're told And if they're told that they can't put one of these Marxists in there as their candidate for governor, they probably won't. question though is which of the others are they going to take? It's hard to annoint somebody when you've got like four other of the less radical Democrats all kind of showing the same strength I've been hearing rumblings that Some of them want to annoint Crowley. African American, which helps them might stop the bleed of African Americans over to the Republican side. Milwaukee County executes seemingly harmless But if they do that, that means they bypass The female liieutant governor of the state, Sarah Rodriguez You also have to get Mandela Barnes out of the way and he never he know doesn't listen to these people And Mandela Bynes competes for the same he's the same profile as Crowley, African American from the city of Milwauke And then what do you do with Joel Breadnon Wh is the candidate, I think that some establishment Democrats his downside is he's a white male But he seems to be the least moderate. He has deep connections with the business community of Milwaukee and so on. So if you're the Democrats, who do you annoy If you're trying to stop Francesca Hong in any event though after they do pick their candidate Well'll have the showdown, Wisconsin is going to decide. Are we going to turn the legislature over to the Democrats, keep the governor as a Democrat, and just double down on this Marxist trend that they've been pushing or Let me turn my attention now to local government We're going to share with you a story that's appalling It's absolutely appalling. In fact, Let me give you a stronger. This is a disgrace. I also think it's fl flat illegal. The story comes from New Berlin. For those of you're not from Wisconsin, New Berlin is one of the most conservative suburbs we have southwest of the city of Milwaukee In Walkinhaw County, east side of Walkenhaw County just over the west side of Milwaukee County if you can imagine ever. People have focused on the fact that almost all of the social service institutions, homeless shelters and so on are in the city of Milwaukee. halfway houses, etceta And as somebody who lives in Milwaukee I acknowledge You've got lots of substance abusers and lots of people that are drug addicts and so on who live in the suburbs Why don't we have anything out there Probably the best run of the homeless shelters that we have in Milwaukee is the rescue mission It's faith based And their hard asses there. They have firm rules. I think it's nine PM lights out can't bring booze. You can't bring drugs, nothing in there You can't bring in weapons, and you certainly can't be having sex inside the building. This is one of the reasons why a lot of people would rather live on the streets of Milwaukee because they want to do all of those things In any event the rescue mission is proposing a recovery facility for an area of N Berlin. Not surprisingly, the people in New Berlin, especially those who live nearby do not want this. Yet. Given how the play how the land is already zoned It does seem as though if they deny this, there would be a strong case the Rescue mission would have if they sued New Berlin and took them to court. So New Berlin is caught in the middle Do we do what these nearby residents want and just say we're not going to have a single thing here for anybody who needs recovery, even though this is a faith based institution? Or do they say We can't afford to waste a fortune in legal fees, defending ourselves against something we know is illegal So here's the appalling thing. The board of Appeals in New Berlin, which is the one that votes on this. Held a meeting last night and they voted. They came out and said, we've decided our decision And then you know what they did? they said, but we're not going to tell you They said they're going' going to tell you in about three weeks Now, the meeting was packed with people that are opposed to this thing And they're all people are all pissed off. They all I mean you're not going to tell us what the decision is Let me tell you something about the state open meetings law can go into closed session to discuss certain things and I think it's a close call, but you probably can go into seat in a close session to discuss whether or not to approve application for our use or whether or not something is zoning compliant You probably can do that What you cannot do in Wisconsin is have a vote on anything in closed sessions You have to return to public session and then vote So if they said they made their decision in that closed section, I'm telling you, I just think they broke the state open meetings law Beyond that If they've made a decision and they haven't told anyone These are some of the worst local government officials that I have ever saided You have an obligation to tell the public what you decided I would think any open Reords act challenge Or if we can wake up the Waukashaw County District atttorney's office any attempt to investigate and prosecute for violation of the openp Records Act Excuse me the open Meetings Act, O meetings Act would be successful. I know why they didn't announce the decision They didn't want all hell to break loose so those people were there. You've got people in this border and I' just said, Normally if you're in a community like New Berlin, who gets on the board of Appeals, you know, local muckety mucks in the community, right And most of the time they like being on because they get to say, No, you can't put up this shed or yes, you can put up this quick trip. You get to be a big shot and make the decisions, right And when are they controversial Until now. So now when actually there's an important decision to make through a bunch of weny little wusses hiding under the table. Oh, we'll tell you in threes and they're gonna tell you by issuing a statement Put it in writing What a load of crap You people in New Berlin shouldn't stand for this in the mayor I think it's still Aaymond He needs to order. this group to go back and hold a special meeting like now and come back out in public and hold a vote in public so everyone could see it and they could take the medicine from the constituents of the community who don't like it This is rotten government Now This case is in a weird way similar, but it's not really Another local government Franklin Interestingly, Franklin Franklin into Berlin Arin. I mean, they're kind of close Franklin is in southern Milwaukee Cy, and geographically, it's huge it's one of other than the city of Milwaukee itself, it might be the largest a suburb in Milwaukee terms of area It's almost all of the southwestern corner of the county Oak Creek is the southeastern And Franklin's the southwest and Franklin goes this isn't exactly right, but it's about twenty seventh street All the way to the Coney line on the other end. So it's huge And it's a growing community because this was the one area in Milwaukee County that still had a lot of farmland and undevelopedand and rural land, but it's been subdivided like crazy anyyway, way over on the other side of Franklin On the far east side of Franklin Remember it goes all the way west over to nearly the Waukashhaw County Line. But on the east edge of Franklin, They have one of the most famous nightclubs in all of the state of Wisconsin. Famous because I'm just telling you, strip joints go, this one really knows how to advertise You can't go to a brewer game or go to an anything without seeing something for around the border So if you've always leared around the border is, it's one of these Huge glitzy gentleman's club N been in it I made the decision after I came to Milwaukee that even if I wanted to go to a strip trroid, I'm not going to do it because of all the crap I would have to put up with The last one I was in Milwaukee, it wasn't even up. What's the one on the North side Ries It wasn't Rickkies. I admit back in the day I've been in Rickies But notine in the last forty years I did somehow get dragged into Arts Performing Center Like right after I started here in nineteen eighty nine and I went in there and not makeaking this story up One of the strippers from the stage yells out at the topch. She's on the stage. Hi, Mark. Last stript try and I I don't get strip joints anyway. I get absolutely no asal out of seeing some woman dancing around there naked, just hoping that I give her fifteen, twenty dollars and stick it inside her G string. I'm sore I think it's pathetic anyyway So that that was nineteen eighty nine. That ended my So anyway, on the border is a huge massive club These places aren't just naked women dancing, Oh that's the attraction. There's a lot of music, there's party room, there have food, all of this stuff I the border. has had several employees nailed massive investigation dealing with trarafficking sex trafficking and some allegations about drugs The manager of the club, Brian Hopkins is facing criminal charges in connection with sex trafficking and sex trafficking is, you know pimping out some of the women that work at the place. The criminal charges came down. the owners of the border said we had nothing to do with this. This is just some employees On the border' liquor license is up And Franklin has to decide if they're going to yank the liquor license. because the place essentially is a house of prostitution and some of the people in addition, by the way to the manager at many of these clubs end I'm not talking about inside information. Ebody knows this. Many of the dancers pimped out. Pimps don't call themselves pimps at places like this. They're managers But the manager will represent a dancer that works in there. The dancers generally are not employees. They're independent contractors, and they work for the tips that they earn And there's a wink, wink, nod nod some not all, but some of the dancers are willing to have sex once they leave the club It's rare anymore for at a high end place to actually have sex in the club. They'll do the lap dances and come real close and maybe even the private rooms. You could get into huge trouble if you actually have sex on premise. It happens at smaller places, but It's very unlikely that on the border would allow it, but certainly you can arrange the deal for later And there are some of the guys that function as these managers, they were charged in this trafficking operation as well So you're Franklin On the border is a huge place ' very amused by the fact that it's really close to the buckies that's being built This amuses me to no end I don't know if does that amuse you, Jason You didn't know that there was a buucky sk. See, he's new here I always went, you know, I One of the reasons I never left Milwaukee as a talk show host is I just, let's imagine I took a job I won't say Miami because I know that a little bit. Let's imagine I was made a big offer to go to twenty five, thirty years ago Philadph What do I know about Philadelphia justust when I read in the newspaper I don't know anything. I don't know the background. I don't know the neighborhoods, I don't know the restaurants. I might have heard of the mayor, but nothing else I grew up in Wisconsin. and it just You need that knowledgees. Well, anyway, the Bckies is a big thing. We're going to gets the first Bckies of Wisconsin. It's it's itak it's, I think it's on an Oak Creek Oak Creek and Franklin almost the dividing line is where the Bckies and the It's like close to twenty seventh street. It's also really close to where the freeway where I ninety four comes in and I ninety four curves There's a big hook on I hundred ninety four in the southern part of the county just north of the Rasine County line. and that's where all of this is. So anyway, the Bckies, they're not right next door, but they're close enough that I just findind that amusing. So anyway, the Franklin City Council had a vote last night of whether or not to Renw the liquor license. on the border The vote was a tie I didn't bother I got a Fox six story here and I've just One of my peeves on the media and it's a real one. They never I won't say never. almost never do they in their story the story' long say which alderman voted yes and which voted no. For the people in Franklin, I think they'd like to know if Joe Blow from District one or Jane Bow from District two voted yes or no For those of you who live in Franklin, I'd certainly encourage you to call your city council office to find out they couldn't decide. Which means it's neither denied or renewed, and apparently they're going to have to discuss at end of the next meeting Now what do I think should happen Well, it's a tough one I admit When you're the owners of a large business like this, Sometimes you have employees do things that you don't know about. Now this guy's though the manager The manager is among those criminally charged But the manager's not the owner These these by the way, these clubs, the level of hidden ownership in a lot of these places, I'm not necessarily saying on the border, but you've seen the controversy over a number of these other clubs in southeastern Wisconsin You know, anything buzz them related. You got ninety seven owners and then the orers hidden and there's LLCs. Who even knows who owns them all? But my guess is a fair number of the owners are not anywhere near on the scene on twenty seventh Street and on the border. See to take away the license for that I don't know I can't say I'm not privy to all the information down there, but I would have leaned toward taking it away This doesn't mean that somebody else can't come in and apply for a liquor license to run the same thing, hopefully other people. borders men It's been described to me I've not been in there. It' very well run. But also everybody knows it's dirty I mean, you'd think that those two things are in contrast, but Apparently, the dirty part It's not readily apparent. If you just go in and you want to watch the dancers and have a few beers and the giant games on the giant screen and You don't want to pay a fortune, you don't want to have prostitution. They'll be fine. But if you are looking for it, I've just always heard you can easily get it. and it doesn't hur that there's Another truck stop up the road I can't imagine that that they're going to do the hookups in the parking lot in Buckys. I just don't think Bucky' Bucky's is like the most clean cut place that there is On the border. All right Next story We begin this segment by discussing back and forth. in the United States between capitalism and Marxism There's something related going on in the world. In particular in Europe, it's happening in the United States as well The invasion of immigrants In Europe, the big thing is obviously not Mexicans from our southern border It's migrants from the Muslim world Africa and the Middle East And many in Europe have just bent over backwards to accommodate Muslims who have come in and want to get rid of the British culture and have instead their Muslim culture And a lot of Muslims, not all, but a lot of Muslims believe that their cultures sure, of course we should be able to rape women. They're just second class scub of the earth. We make them put on the Hejab It's what many of them think. You may don not want to hear it, but it is what just look at them Look at their beliefs And there has been problem after problem after problem after problem after problem. But the British just, they they, you know, they think of themselves as being so open minded and so liberal Blash is going on in many countries in Europe. But in the UK, they have just prided themselves on this tolerance. and they refuse to allow themselves to be bothered. by misbehavior by Muslims This has all come to a head with something that happened in the British city of Southampton An eighteen year old boy, white British bpe You know, Britain all along non Muslim was stabbed nine times In this case, The individual who did the stabbing was an Indian. Now remember, India Most of the people are either Hindu uslim but the person was Indian in ethnicity He stabbed the boy nine times and he was on the ground The police from Southampton. Arrive and rather than render aid and an attempt to apprehend the stabber They jump on top of the boy who has been stabbed. Some in the crowd were claiming that the boy yelled racial slurs That is a crime in the UK It's a serious crime to make any statement about any religious minority at all So the police' first response was to go after the kid for saying this, he's on the ground stabbed nine times. Now I'm sure many of you know about this. he died Boy died This is Blatantly, George Floyd It's worse than George Floyd This was someone that wasn't resisting or anything the police. He was somebody who was already stabbed and laying there. The knee jerk response from the from the police there is they are so adamant punishing these hate crime laws that once they heard that he uttered this, and by the way, there's no corroborating proof that he did He's dead. The police didn't help him. They're laying on top of him when he's stabbed Well, anyway There are now riots in Southampton. from the Whites This is finally a bridge too far The lifelong residents of South Hampton are enraged that the police did not render assistance rather umping on them may have contributed to his death This is what happens. This is the leftist tolerance on steroids that we're going to bend over so far to not be racist that we will accept An immigrant stabbing someone and then blame the victim for somehow provoking it not only do nothing to help him contribute to his death The conservative the leader of the consonservative minority And they have multiple political parties, but Njel Faraj is he is the guy that led Brexit. And he's emerging as a leader of the consonservative movement He's making an enormous stink on this, but otherwise most of the British politicians from all of the different political parties, they're rather silent on the whole thing This is the direction that the left in the United States wants to bring us to. And it's the reason I believe that there has been such overwhelming opposition to Trump at IC Trump came in and said,, we're ending this If you're here illegally, you're out And if you commit crimes when you're here illegally, we're going to go and apprehend you. I started to do that and they started running in and grabbing people right and left. And the left in this country has gone ballistic over it And I think their opposition to ICE, which was their way of opposing Trump's attempt to bring immigration laws back to sanity in the United States. is what has driven the hateredort Trump more than any other single issue you are listening to the Mark Belling podcast Charisma Customs in Delafield, their sponsor. They're also where I took my car. They do a lot of things to make your car look really good and stand up to all that we have to put up with on Wisconsin Rads. The package I took included ceramic coating, which makes the vehicle look really good. Paint protection for all of the chips and stuff that comes off of our roads, the wheel package and a tint job that adds to A Little little bit of privacy and security They handle all sorts of cars there from regular old family drivers to exotic spectacular cars. Anybody who wants to protect their car like I do or make it look really good like I do, check out Charisma Customs in Dellafield. They're right off the freeway, that's Charisma Customs in Dellafield This is the Mark Gulling podcast. It's kind of pointless to say this, but this podcast that I'm doing right now is a must listen It's pointless to say that because anyone who's hearing me is already listening I need to say this to the people who haven't listened, but since they're not listened to the podcast, how do I tell them We've got a lot of important topics in here. I want to address I mean, there's no way to do this in just one segment in segment two of the podcast. You need I could do weeks of this But I want to focus for a few moments here on where we are with AI, artificial intelligence. There's a lot of things that we the left is now just knee jerk opposed to all of it. Some are it's just they're against all of it. They're against the dayays centterers, they're against it They're going say it's going ruin jobs. terrible, terrible, terrible But saying that you're against it is like saying that you're against the sunrising It's not going to stop AIS here, the technology exists and it's going to happen. So well let's rather than focus here on whether or not it's all good or it's all bad And I think it will be like the internet. It will be half good and half bad Rather than focus on that, I want to focus on the reality of what is happening and what's likely going to be the case as a result of it anthropic I'm guessing less than half of the people in the United States even have heard of that company Their IPO is going to be any day now And when they go public, they are instantly going to become one of the largest companies in the world You've all heard of OpenAI, which created chat GPT. They're in second place Anthropics's AI product is called Claude everyone says it is just the ticket It's phenomenal right now Anthropic is leading the race in AI I remember This is I always remember the things I write about. I remember saying, you know, right around the time that the dot com thing was going on We had search engines And they are stunk I remember saying at the time, they all stink but Yahoo is the best. Remember when Yah who is a searchgine, I bet you don't But they were the best. And I said Whoever creates a search engine that works will rule the world. Google came up with one that worked and they've ruled the world Who doesn't use Google for search The answer is those that are using AI that are using Chat GPT, I guess Prior to AI, it was always Google and Google has their own AI in there that search it. I'll just tell you. The AI mechanism in Google is better than Google's regular search It finds things instantly and it's almost always to the point. I a couple of medical issues going on this week. I just punched it into Google and asked for the AI response. Great information. It just Unbelievable Anthrapic and Chat GPT are both racing to go public And the IPOs are expected to be in the stratosphere In the meantime numerous other companies that are simply companies that are using AI to do something Their stock valuation is exploding Likewise, explosion in the companies that create the infrastructure of AI obbvious example and this has been going on for several years is Nvidia Th the makers of the best chips And the you need powerful semiconductors, powerful computer chips To be able to power AI in NvidIS have been the best Nvidia is now onene of the highest valuation companies in the world just for making the chips that power AI I think Some things are overwhelmingly apparent I think AI is clearly Killing soft And one of the things that is certain to happen over the next several years starting right now is some of the most successful biggest giant companies in the world but that are only really software driven and not AI die. People always say, well, this company won'tie. You go back and you look at the biggest, they had the nifty fifty in in the sixties the companies that were exploding in growth Almost all of them are in the toilet now if they exist. There used to be an old saying as GM goes, so goes the nation. Oh the nation goes doesn't have a damn thing to do anymore with how GM goes. Things changed Remember when the big tech company was IBM? they're coming back now that they've embraced AI. But IBM is by far nowhere near the top of the tech world Microsoft and Alphabet, the parent of Google are spending a fortune On AI. In fact, Alphabet just announced that they're going to sell new shares of stock. stock went out as a result I think is it eight hundred billion? they're going to raise a new stock sales to fund more of their AI development For all the cash that they have on hand, they see that they need hundreds of billions more so they're going have a new stock sale. to move forward on their AI I think you are going to see in the stock market and eff fact, not controversial prediction because it's already happening a massive rotation into N and growing companies, many of which you have never heard of that will become at warp speed huge And I think that you will see the decimation and crashing of the stocks Many companies that are being made irrelevant by AI. If AI can do something, you don't need your own software application to do it. I'm not going to come up with any specific names, but if you look at a company that's huge, you, and I'll just mention some of them. Among the many that are challenged are these workplace companies like Salesforce and Workdayay and all of these other things that help company operating, the question is going to be whether or not anyone's going to need them when AI can simply do what these software programs had been doing Whether this is good or bad. to me is Iirrelevant to the fact that it is, it's going to happen Anybody who tries to pick their own socks Better be focused on this. The opportunity, I mean, there are some stocks that are just right now, they're so volatile, but they are exploding like crazy I'll tell you about what I' It's a company called Swarm. It has no sales. It doesn't do anything yet But it's got some of the biggest names in the history of tech behind it. One of the founders of Google's behind it. someomebody from One of the other big Military consulting firms, that's a big one Anyway You've got a number of those people behind it companies called Swarmer. And what it does is It uses AI. to control an entire military's drone network The AI will launch all the drones, the AI will guide the drones. the AI will do everything. You won't even need to have some colonel sitting there overseeing anything. The whole thing could be AI focused and AI driven. AI runs the whole thing I'm not endorsing this stock. It's way too volatile for me to endorse it. And they don't have any sales yet. They just have this concept It might turn out to be worthless. I bought the stock one week ago and it doubled in a week Dou It's more than doubled. And again, I didn't check it today. It may be down forty two percent today. It's moving twenty five percent back and forth in either direction ever since itss IPO There are zillions like this Because the reality is the company that comes up with the AI application or creates the AI hardware and dominates their field will be instantly. as big as wall. because the entire existence of the world is going to run through AI, whether we like it or not The internet revolution displace zillions of companies, including, you know, broadcast companies like the on that I work at Print newspapers, books, Magg, just look at the number of things retail Well, this is the new revolution That doesn't mean anybody in AI is going to be successful. Remember the dot com bubble Late nineties Any company that the name d. com it's stock through the roof Of course, what happened is some of the companies that were early leaders were surpassed by others and And secondly, some of the early dot com companies What it was that they were doing, someomebody else came up with doing something in a different and better way and they became worthless. People site sun microsystems. I held the stock way back in the day It was creating the hardware for The online world in a year and a half the company is worthless Massive company's stock went to virtually zero. Nerous others did the same thing Some survived compomanies like Amazon that many people thought, okay, they sell stuff online. Where are you going with that Amazon owns the world Does Amazon have to worry about AI No AI in and of itself, can't retail stuff. Amazon's selling everything Amazon also has a massive cloud business. All the storage is up there AI need storage You'd think Amazon would be immune Some of the others Oracle has embraced AI. They're doing extremely well But then you take these companies like Anthropic, which isn't even public yet. And now the next one In order for AI to do AI thinging, AI has to transmit from one place to another The obvious place is going to transmit is space. Musk's IPO for SpaceX is set for june twelfth They keep raising the estimate of how much money they're going to raise If you had the ability to buy it pre IPO, you're going to make a killing. While it was not yet traded public, private investors were able to take a stake in SpaceX years ago. SpaceX isn't just sending these rockets up in the air to put a satellite around. it can theoretically in the future do almost anything One of SpaceX's sister companies is Starlink We've been debating forever, how do we get broadband to rural areas Well you got a farm here and the next closest farm is a mile and a half away. You can't put all these satellites out there. Sttyling simply has it in space When those hurricanes came in, All the electricity was down. Nobody had any kind of communication service. stylelink work There are other companies that are space stuff that are also going in the IPOs. My point in all of this is I think you are going to see over the next few years the destruction of numerous companies that are highly successful and the creation of new and emerging companies from nowhere in the same way that You know, before Google became Google, who the hell heurard of Google and so many of the others The growth of Amazon. You're going to see the same thing but only on steroids with AI and You know, there are a lot of people who say that there's an AI bubble. There is in a lot of the stocks that are overvalued. We just don't know which ones of them are But after that crash occurs, will come the recovery and the explosion in these valuations And if you could figure out who the next Google is It'd be like, you know, if you bought Nvidia ten years ago It wasn't quite ten years ago, but I made a ton of money on NVIidia. I wasn't anywhere near toward the beginning I just figured out that when it was exploding, this was right Okay, we got this AI thing. I guess this is going to kind of work and they sell all the chips Now there's numerous companies at the chips The head of Nvidia just wasas it What wasn't Taiwan' semiconductor marble He said the Marvel's going to be trillion dollar company All you had to do is say that marble stock went through the roof In the meantime, this story It's that gotten a lot of attention I wonder though, and again, I'm not saying I know this. I'm wondering if Bitcoin is dead Bitcoin's price has been going down for nine months. and Every now and then you just see a story in the news and you think, this is There's a company called Microstrategy. They change their name to strategy They were a computer company, but the CEO and chairman of the company his name is Sailor. changed the whole country. esssentially all they did was they bought Bitcoin So buying microstrategy changed the name to strategy was a way of investing in Bitcoin Sayailor has always said Never sell Bitcoin said, we will never sell Bitcoin Because in other words, Bitcoin was just because it's limited, it's finite will always go up That's been his mantra. Well, as Bitcoin has gone down, so has the stock price of strategy This week Silor announced We' selling some of our big The guy that said never ever sell Bitcoin Their company is now selling Bitcoin It's hard to determine in this AI world what the future for cryptocurrencies is. My take on it has always been that I don't know how you can put a valuation on Bitcoin or any of the others because anybody can create a new cryptocurrency and who's to say that Bitcoin's going to work any better than this coin? There's like other coins that even have the name Bitcoin in it All different means of transaction. And I still don't see much commerce being done in Bitcoin I see people use it to speculate and invest. and there's all these Bitcoin millionaires out there. They bought it when it wass teeny and They talk about all of the money that they have, but now that it's down nearly two thirds Be a sell or not See the thing with Bitcoin is it's crashed many times in the past and it's always come back But that doesn't mean it will always come back. Sometimes it crashes and it doesn't No I have this We did a segment on the podcast about a week ago. in which I talked about this clash between Gen Z and the baby booomers Gen Z, which is basically twenty five and under went nuts Kevin O'Leary, the guy nicknamed Mr. Wonderful from Shark Tank He's up clocking head in a lot of the netor He came out and he made fun of the Gen Zers who keep whining about affordability when they're drinking eleven dollars lattes at Starbucks and they go out for dinner on a Tuesday night spending thirty five dollars and they're taking all of these trips wondering, why the world are you complaining about affordability when you're spending things that most people think are insanely overpriced And doing the kinds of things you usually do when you're like fifty five and not twenty three and the Gen Zars went nuts for this sayaying the baby boomers had it spoiled. We have all of these other challenges We're the ones facing a future of no jobs because of AI on and, on This has provoked a lot of reactions from listeners. I want to share one. This is from female and she sent this to me and I don't name people so I won't name her Market decision, your discussion last week regarding Boomers versus Gen Z really struck a chord with me. For full disclosure, I am an older millennial in my mid forties who works at a major Milwaukee corporate headquarters I work directly with ten Gen Z twenty something And I am the oldest in my office Rarely a day goes by where I don't hear one of them mentioning how expensive things are How unfair the economy is or just the plain hatred for capitalism. these quote kids look for sympathy as if they have had it worse than any other past generation. I'll interject. When I was in my twenties, everything seemed expensive because I didn't have money It to me is the expectation that unless you inherited money from your parents Or you went into some sort of high fllutin field instantly because you had a unique skill You're going to be broken until you're thirty. Have enough money to start a family in your thirties have a little bit of a stash by your forties and if you really manage things, then be able to start spending pretty good in your mid forties and hopefully get forward the age of retirement and then have a lot of money laying around to live the lifestyle that you want. But the point is is that it's a progression You're supposed to be broke And you're supposed to eat macaroni and cheese out of a box when you're twenty three But again, this is what all baby boomers say. But the thing with a lot of the Gen Zeers is they expect at the age of twenty two to be living the exact same lifestyle as some old part of me at my age of fifty one. Get serious, you morn. Allright, I continuing. To them, the boomers and even millennials had it so easy Gen Z is a strange way of thinking that anything that happened before they were born or old enough to remember didn't happen at all A lot of generations have that I don't think this is me now. this is not unique to the Gen Zers As a baby boomer I was born Barely a decade after World War II ended World War twoo was a non event in my life I mean, I heard him talking about it a little I still think it's incredible. When I was in kindergarten, it was only like sixteen years after we were in World War two People have a hard time relating to anything that happened before them Now herer point is that the G Zers are even worse that they simply lack any understanding of anything. That's why they think they have it so bad, continuing. They also believe any narrative they see on TikTok. That's a problem The problem with the millennials is They had blind faith in their teachers They're professors and their influencers They were the ones that fell for the crap of COVID. They're the ones that fell for Russia collusion They're the ones that believe that climate change is going to burn them all up. They bought everything hookline and sinker because they never had and I'm generalizing, because some obviously are their exception. But the vast majority of millennials never questioned any of this stuff. and they simply assumed that because some civil service overpaid employee was a school teacher, that they knew what they were talking about as opposed to just being a union hack regurgitating the same stuff the other union hacks were regurgitating That was a problem with millennials. Now this person' saying the G Zs They're the same thing except they clearly reject authority. They're not listening to teachers, or professors. They saw, for example, how full of crap they all were on COVID and stuff like that What they listened to is TchTok. There's something to this thing with TikTok TikTok, this is the whole sovereign citizen movement is driven by TikTok these people who actually think that you don't need a license to drive and all this stuff that the sovereign citizens. You know, Dararyrel Brooks, I don't think he ever was a sovereign citizen. I think that Daryrel Brooks had no chance of anything, so he rolled the dice and tried sovereign citizen anyyway. But they hear this stuff on TikTok and I always explain that people are likely to believe something is true if they want it to be true So some idiot on TikTok comes up and says something and you want it to be true If you don't have the ability Analyze and realize half the people in the world are full of crap and ling to you If you don't have the ability to dissect and determine what makes sense and you start falling for things You're going to be skewed. anyyway back to the piece from the writer They also believe any narrative they see a dictt as I'm sure you're aware, Tk Tk is full of videos blaming boomers for anything and everything from politics to climate change to the economy What bothers me more than their beliefs is their behavior They complain about their finances, but don't do anything to improve their situation. Now this was the point that Kevin O'Leary was making. When he talked about the lattes and all of his stuff. All right, now let's imagine you're twenty four and didn't have enough money. I know what I would tell you to do It's what I did when I was that age I was already in management, but I didn't make Fpp. So I came up with every way possible to make extra money. I created a news bureau when I was at the state Citol in Springfield and I did a lot of stringing I did a lot of independent freelance work for NBC radio I did all of this stuff to make it. That's what you did. I decided it was upon me to figure out how to make more. Now back to this What bothers me more is their beliefs is their behavior They complain about their finances but don't do anything to improve their situation They live in apartments in downtown Milwaukee equivalent to a high end condominium. Let me comment on that This writer's right about this I live in downtown Milwaukee in a high end condominium. And I look at a lot of these apartments that are lavish, glitzy building in which they're renting The rnt to me. I mean, I got a good decent enough chunk of money. I am astonished by what people are paying in rent Rnt, not something you own Rnt. three four five, fifty five hundred six thousand dollars. Why aren't you living? in some dump on Firewell Avenue that doesn't have off street parking. That's what you're supposed to do when you're starting you don't have any money kept and we' finally reached the point in which I think the downtown housing boom is maxed out Some of the new apartment buildings are half empty We finally overbuild. in that area and I've wondered who these people are that are filling them up, and I a lot of them are empty nesters and affluent people in their thirties and their forties, It's a lot of that But there's a lot of people in the twenties who maybe they're getting some money from mom or dad or they're putting their entire paycheck into their luxury apartment, Gaway back to her point They eat out at restaurants almost every night. They do Here's another thing or they door dash insanity of door dashing You're still eating at home But it's costing you twenty six dollars rather than the eight dollars and fifty cents it would have cost if you bought it from the store I admit at this point in my life, I'm not gonna sit around for ninety minutes cooking my dinner But I can make a lot of halfway decent stuff with the air fryer or the microwave or a salad out of a bag that doesn't cost anywhere near that much But again, they're broke without addressing the fact that they're living luxurious lifestyles and then whining they don't have any money This is me now joining it in a ranch, she continues They have not one, but three or four vacations planned at a time That is another thing I didn't go to Las Vegas until I was in my mid thirties. I drove through it eararlier than that when Dwayne Gay and I had took a side gig to return a car to San Diego We managed to plot the trip to go through We managed to go through Las Vegas Hollywood, Los Angeles and all that. we h had every hotspot that there was. but we didn't have any money So we basically saw it and like tried to find if they had a penny slot. Anway Four trips for vacations plan Again, you see part of the problem the lack of denying yourself to be able to do these things in the future They subscribe to every imaginable streaming service I got a lot of My bill is insane There's going to be a shakeout, but you have to decide which one you don't want Do I not want Hulu? Well, then I miss a lot of sports Do I not want peacock Well, that's all the sports that NBC doesn't put on the regular TV You kind of have to have Netflix because they have most of the good shows. I get Prime video for free because I'm a member of Amazon Prime What are the other ones? To this day, I don't know if I have Paramum pllus. I don't think I do, but if I do, I don't think I've ever watched it But again, they all cost money And our point is they subscribing to all of them Maybe you don't get to watch every single thing that's on any service They have not one, but three or four vacations planned. Remember when Bachelor and Bachelorette parties spent one night drinking at a local bar See, now, she's slaming this on the Jen Z's The millennials started this crap Those days are long and Gd Now they mean flying to a destination for a three day luxury trip. They indeed do do that. Did you know about that, Jason These bachelor parties, they get on planes and go to Vegas or something or another Again, I'm just telling you All this is is a drug addiction The refusal to deny yourself anything Here's how Bachelor Parties went. somehow I have two strip joid topics and the strip joint references in the same podcast When I was in my twenties and thirties, the Bachelor partarty meant taking the guy to a strip joint, and by the way, it meant no girlfriends or anybody else involved. That's what it was. Everybody got drunk then you took them home and it was usually pretty close to the wedding day There were bachelor parties that were like either the night before the wedding rehearsal dinner or even up That's what it was But now they have to, Well, we want to do this again. Look at the amount of money you're spending. No wonder your bro, continuing with this thing Not a single one of them has a second job or side hustle, as they prefer to call it. The editing Ever and ever and ever People have taken second jobs Nobody drives cabs anymore. Remember all in the family, Archie Bunker drove a cab on Sundays. rememember that Guys that work at Bar Tim by Ken Bar Now there's illions of part time jobs out there. I know Uber could use more people because the Uber weights are getting to be insane a lot of times I'm telling you, when I landed the airport of Florida and need to get an Uber The trick is you request the Uber when you're still on the plane, even though it's a ten minute walk over where the Uber stand is because the closest Uber is always twenty minutes away because eighteen thousand people are looking for them. And if it's the wrong time of the day, it can cost a fortune to go And it' just they don't have it drivers Well, I don't want to do that. I don't want Most people don't like to do part time jobs When I was young, I empired on the side Work for the city and did sporting things. I I stopped that when I actually had to start working nights and radio How hard is that stuff to do none of them have side gigs The thought doesn't even seem to occur to them ask them to make any sacrifices and it's non negotiable They live for the now and not for the future. See, that's the problem And I think a lot of this this is my own opinion, lot of this has to do with lack of belief in God If you don't believe there's a God and therefore don't believe there's a he another hell, of course, you're going to do everything you can while you're still here. There's no point of thinking about a future at all, much less saving for your retirement or doing all this good stuff from your fifties. now, now, now, now, Hedonism byy the way doing everything now and not saving anything for the future. My own opinion on this is that it kills your spirit You got nothing to look forward to Most of what drives us is anticipation of some great thing we're going to be able to do Well, if you're always doing great things now and then after you do it, the thrill of it wears off Where does the buzz come from in that They want and expect the kind of comfort in life that has taken every past generation decades of work to earn I look at my former Goofball producer, Paul big house out there in Cedarburg with the outdoor kitchen and all of this crap in part because he married well and smart wife who was successful. I remember when Paul started with me. He didn't have a you don't want to you don't want it. guy was working in radio in West Ben doing the slap shop. He lived the American dream. But he wasn't living the damn American dream when he was twenty seven. He was worming his way into my show. He hitched his wagon at me, which worked out pretty well It in med You're not supposed to have anything when these whiners are expecting it And again, you could say this all you want and their retaliation is just, I think devoid of any knowledge that this is the way that it is always b. unless you're somebody that's born into muddy true. Certainly a lot of the millennials had it easy when they were young because their parents I think some of the Gen Zers aren't having the parents The G Zers are basically the children of G X. The millennials are children into the baby booo. And I think the G Xers aren't spoiling the kids the way they baby boomers, de meaning, the millennials who were able to live at home until they were thirty five and mom and dad paid for every damn thing they had. The G Zers aren't getting their lives subsidized and carried for. So they look back at the millennials who had things softer than anybody And they just presume that that's the normal. Anyway, she continues. This generation puzzles, honestly, concerns me. What's to happen when they become the leaders of the world I was fascinated by my own millennial generation ten years ago, but now with Gen Z, I am absolutely perplexed Isn an interesting thoughts that she has. and I think that the answer is they grab some of them gravitate Some of them are clearly becoming conservative The young males just loved Trump and they embraced much of the notion of MAGa because they were recoiled at the Marxist view of the world that said that whiteemail was a problem for anything. And a lot of those guys are very entrepreneurial Some of the femaales so Got a lot of education and all this stuff now they get these jobs And they want to live like the queen bees of the world, But you have to but that all they are right now is worker bees. So they embrace socialism with this whole notion that, okay, the rent will be cheap, everything will be cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap not understanding that somebody's got to pay for all of that stuff. And when you keep taxing them like this, they leave and go away and now you don't have their money. In the end it all collapses and you become what's happening in California You're listening to the Bark Beelling podcast How much would it take for you to be wealthy and financially comfortable Schwab recently asked Americans that question, most said at least two million dollars You might have a different number for yourself. Make sense, since you have your own ideas about travel, retirement, and the legacy you want to leave. That means you need custom advice building a personalized plan. The team at Annex Wealth Management is ready to listen and help. Annex Wealth Management. giveive them a call. Kow the difference This has been a long. ay I'll make tomrow's Two more things on the Mark Belling pod guast first. Wisconsin Senator Ron Johson is announcing that he's holding hearings. to investigate ort the headline because the keyword is plausible Plausible mechanisms of COVID nineteen injections causing cancer and attacks on scientific publications and research Ron Johnson has been the one member of the Congress that has been hell bent on truth telling on COVID. The whole time COVID was going down, we were told that there were no side effects, notothing was happening We werere also told a bunch of other lies that if you got the vaccine, you wouldn't get CVID or you wouldn't spread COVID and all this stuff. But in the meantime, you know, the COVID vaccine, like any other medical treatment that we have, is going to create certain problems. And with any medical treatment, the question is, does the benefit outweigh the negatives? What happened with the COVID vaccines is we were told that there were no negatives. The first thing they did is they gave immunity to the vaccine makers And then they have been doing nothing but suppressing all of the obvious problems that have occurred. I've been saying all along twenty years. We'll know at the end of twenty years, which should be twenty forty one, which is twenty years after the vaccine came around. whether or not the vaccines on balance were good or bad You can certainly make the case that one of the reasons that we built immunity where COVID doesn't kill as many people anymore is because of the vaccine But you also can clearly make the case that a lot of terrible things are happening to people, but we don't have there is some medical research that's going on to some of the side effects and some of the things that have happened to people, but It gets scant coverage and most people just don't want to hear it. They can't admit that they may have been wrong They fell for the BS that were spekewed by the monstrous Lar Fauci And some of the public health quacks who are some of the dumbest and laziest people in the world. and never use the brain that God gave them. Okay, maybe this gives you some immunity. but maybe it's causing other problems. So I'll just tell you People between fifty and seventy are dropping dead of heart attacks right in left And a whole lot of younger people are getting heart attacks There is, and you can see it in the medical research, there's co rellationship between myocarditis and a lot of correlation with atrial fibrillation, fast heartbeat, and so on Now there seems to be the possibility of causation with some cancers It does not serve us well that we are not on top of what some of these things are and we're simply letting people get all these things because we don't want to admit that the vaccines clearly had downsides And I know what it is. All these people who made fun of the people who wouldn't get themselves vaccinated and were telling us the world was going to end with the vaccines They don't want to admit that they were right about anything They might not have been right about all of it only guy that's willing to look into this with an open mind to get to the bottom of All the crap that happened because of people getting these vaccines is Johnson. Big one is going to be idiotic parents who are vaccinating eleven year old kids putting experimental vaccines in their arm, the MRINA stuff completely unproven experxperimental into the bodies of children who had no risk of getting COVID at all. What are their lives going to be like? and how many of them are going to develop all sorts of problems We don't know We lack leaders, and I blame Trump for this too. It was under Trump that the vaccines were developed. They were rolled out under Biden There's no desire on the part of Tr and I just think that this is part of the back and forth in which Bobby Kennedy Jr. may not be in favor right now is Trump doesn't want any investigation into whether or not Operation Wp spepeed turned out shots that didn't do much good. and I don't know how much good they did I think damn near everybody gotOVID And when COVID came out up, you recall my statement on the show, I just think everybody's going to get COVID Every virus that we have, everybody gets it unless it's one that you need contact like blood to blood Not everybody is going to get HIV or raIDs. because you needed to have blood to blood contact So if you use dirty needles O if you engaged in anal sex Good chance you were going to get COVID because that would be a blood to blood transfer But you weren't going to get it because somebody was sneezing. these viruses that pass easily Haveving cold. Influenza To some extent pneumonia. Everybody's going to get it, and we can only hope that after everybody gets it to develop enough immunity that they can f hite it off in the future And now this. finally this We he the day that I was talking about water softeners When was that Yeah It might have been whenateever it was. it might have been just the last podcast we did I have somebody who has responded to this I said, I remember when I was said does that we still have water softeners anymore? I came up because I was talking about a grade of salt, and then I said I need we need the whole swot bag. occurred to that I don't see anybody buying salt bags anymore I say when I was a kid, a lot of people had Culligun where they brought these tanks in We had when I was a kid we had a water soener. It was in the room that they turned into my bedroom loudest thing in the world kicked in every night at two o'clock in the morning. Well, I have an expert in the field who has contacted me with information Hi Mark Just wanted to respond to your comment about water softeners. I've worked for Culligan for thirty seven years Somebody else might be involved in water softening, but Culligan is the only one I've ever And we have thousands of customers who have softeners that still require salt Although the old steel exchange tanks are obsolete. I mean I even thought they were obsolete when I was seven because the only people who had them were people who lived in really old houses We built a new house in the nineteen sixties, we had a water sap. know they'd bring in these tanks and there was these These had to be the strongest guys in the world because the tanks should be swapped out They'd be these guys and was the there was the old TV commercial. Hey Culligan man, did you ever see that commercial That's where that came from And Culligan now does water sow, but they used to do the tanks, anyway, the tanks they're absollete.
