Just leave off the www and just type in your URL navigation bar, COCQB.com, and look at the calendar there to find upcoming classes. So do you guys watch football? or is anybody watching the NFL this year? Luke, are you a football guy?
SPEAKER 03 :
No, I, uh, I watched the Superbowl, but other than that, I, I don’t really catch any games.
SPEAKER 05 :
Like you don’t, you don’t follow like the Broncos or you don’t have a favorite team or anything.
SPEAKER 03 :
No, I’ve never been a big sports guy.
SPEAKER 05 :
All right. Well, as we know, a lot of people definitely are. My Steelers husband, um, he’s, You know, we get the NFL Sunday ticket and stuff because obviously those games are out of market for us. But the Steelers do appear on Monday night, Thursday night. They’ve added all kinds of stuff. Did you guys notice that? They’ve added, like, there’s Thursday night football, and I think there’s going to be Friday night football now, and then there’s Sunday, and then there’s Monday. So pretty soon, like, every game is just going to be aired on TV, and there’s going to be no need for the NFL Sunday ticket. So… Anyway, we were talking yesterday during the Steelers-Jets game about Cameron Hayward. He had gone down – he didn’t go down, whatever. The bigger they are, the harder they fall, I guess. And he came down and, you know, because he’s such a big name, I guess, in Steelers football, and I was like, oh, no, you know, that would be a drag if he went down or whatever. And my husband’s like, you know, I don’t give a crap anymore about, you know, he’s – And it’s all a matter of attitude, I guess, with these football players. And my husband’s more about the game and not so much about the paycheck. And he told me that there were some contract negotiations or something, and TJ Watts, who’s another defensive guy on Steelers’ team, got a new contract, and Cameron Hayward thought that he should get a new contract. And so even though he’s really not living up to his end of the defensive bargain on the Steelers’ defense, so to speak, but during these negotiations, he had said something to the effect of, I have a family to feed. And he was offered $14 million. He has a family to feed. So in his world… It takes $14 million to feed his family. I mean, is his family the size of a small country? These professional athletes and their money demands are sickening to me, which makes me not want to watch football at all. It makes me not want to, you know, bow down to anything professional sports related because, again, Oh, my gosh, you guys, and especially now. You know, we’ve just come off this era where, and we’re still in it for the most part, where everything is so expensive, from gas to eggs to rent to home prices and car prices and everything. It’s just so expensive to exist. So I looked up the highest salaries in 2025 for athletes, and the top five salaries paid athletes in 2025. Three of them are soccer players. No, I’m sorry. Two of them are soccer players. One is basketball. One’s boxing. One is football. Okay. The number one highest paid athlete in the world is Cristiano Ronaldo. It’s a Stephen Curry, and you’ll have to tell me who he is because I don’t know. Steph Curry, basketball player. Okay, I’m glad you know because I didn’t. So Steph, Steph Curry, $156 million. Tyson Fury is a boxer, I guess, $146 million. Dak Prescott, and I looked him up, so more on him later, $137 million bucks. and Lionel Messi, soccer player, $135 million. So let’s take Dak Prescott as an example. He’s the quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys. Obviously, the quarterback is the most protected of the 11 men on the field. I think we can probably agree on that. You can’t hit the guy here. You can’t hit him there. You can’t hit him at this time or that time or whatever, right? And, of course, there’s always going to be potential to get injured in any position. I get that. And as you know, the rules have changed a lot since the smash mouth stuff that used to get the players hurt. And that stuff’s no longer allowed. So what he does for the team is worth $137 million today. Why are these salaries so freaking high? Nobody, and I mean nobody, earns that kind of money. And when I say earn, I mean earn. The work justifies the money. Yes, they can get hurt. I get it. But do you know who else can get hurt and has a dangerous job? Like the man working on an oil rig in the middle of an ocean. the guy who’s running the equipment on a construction site in the middle of downtown Denver, loggers, roofers, the guy up on the scaffold cleaning windows, or the guy building the skyscrapers and the ironworkers and miners and pilots, those guys have pretty risky jobs too. So do you know what the average salary is for an ironworker?
SPEAKER 1 :
$62,000. $62,000.
SPEAKER 05 :
The average salary for an oil rig worker, it ranges from $50,000 to $100,000, depending on your experience. So you’re out in the middle of the ocean on an oil rig away from your family, and you can make up to $100,000. If you’re in charge on one of those oil rigs, you can make as much as $250,000. I don’t understand how a professional football player is worth $137 million. or even Cam Hayward and his measly $14 million because he has a family to feed. It blows my mind. It blows my mind. And we always talk about the homeless veterans and the homeless, you know, starving kids. And, you know, we know, we feel the cost for everything is out of control. People are losing their homes left and right, and they’re going broke, and their credit card debt is you know, off the charts and homelessness and starving veterans on the streets and kids and even people in other countries. And these guys are raking in millions of dollars to play a game. It’s freaky. I don’t get it. And so the more I think about it, the more angry I get. I understand it’s entertainment, and that’s just about all it is, because what is the purpose? The National Football League, what is the purpose of the NFL? It’s just entertainment. And what’s really crazy to me is the fact that most of these guys were drafted from college teams. And to listen to some of them speak, they sound like they barely have a fourth grade education. Don’t you have to maintain some sort of GPA in college to remain on the team in college? How do these guys even make it through college to get drafted? Obviously, I’m not talking about all of them. There are some that are obviously very well educated, very well spoken, the whole thing. But I’ve actually heard guys say, I don’t read that well. You know, really? You don’t read well, but you graduated from college and got drafted to the NFL after being in college. I mean, when you go to college, you have to graduate high school, right? That’s kind of the first step. At least graduate high school, and then you’ve got to get accepted based on some kind of criteria. And for them, obviously, it’s the fact that they can play football. So how does all this work when you’re churning out somebody that is in the NFL that can barely speak? on a fourth grade level or they can’t read, it’s just frustrating to me. It seems like such an injustice. Yes, they work hard. I get it. But they’re still playing a game. That’s what they’re doing is playing a game. And I don’t care who you are or how talented you are at what you do. Nobody earns $14 million playing a game. And they certainly don’t earn $137 million. Right? And then they’re little prima donnas, and they whine and they cry about their contract and their extensions and, you know, trades and stuff. And this team is going to offer me more money. And so what do you guys think of these salaries? Is it just – I mean, obviously, it’s just the way it is. But does it ever frustrate you as you’re paying, you know, $10 for a dozen eggs and it hurts the wallet just a little bit because – or pumping that tank full of gas and it hits you for $80, $90, $100 or whatever, depending on the size of your tank. To me, it’s just so imbalanced, I guess. I don’t even know what to say. If you want to talk about this or anything else, you can give me a call at 303-477-5600. I’d be happy to talk to you about it. I want to also cover just a little bit about RFK Jr.’ ‘s Senate hearing for a minute. He was being grilled ruthlessly by a handful of senators, including our very own Michael Bennett, by the way. It was the typical slings and arrows and gripe session where they got RFK Jr. up there and just started pounding him relentlessly. The Based on RFK Jr.’ ‘s firing of the CDC director, Dr. Susan Monterrez, I guess that’s how you say her name, as well as the entire 17-member panel of the Vaccine Advisory Board. So RFK Jr. said that Dr. Susan Monterrez was untrustworthy. And the 17 members of the Vaccine Advisory Board, he said, were too closely aligned with vaccine makers and too quick to rubber stamp new vaccines. And bravo for him because he could not be more right. when Elizabeth Warren grilled him on the COVID vaccines, he fired back at her, not only about, you know, she was talking about the availability of the vaccines and what she says was a promise that RFK June, you promised that everybody who wanted a vaccine could, could get a vaccine. And he was going back at her saying they can still get them. And she’s like, I’m talking about getting them from their pharmacy. And they went back and forth with this entire thing, but he, He shouted out and put it on record, which you’re about to hear in just a second, that she took $855,000 from the pharmaceutical companies. And, of course, the Democrats on social media think that RFK Jr. just got roasted completely, but… Talking over someone and not allowing them to speak and screaming into your microphone isn’t winning in my book. It’s just not. So RFK Jr. got down in the mud with them at certain points. He was yelling at them as well. So they were kind of screaming over each other. But I want to play a little audio for you from that hearing. RFK Jr. first, he’s speaking to – because this is kind of a compilation – He was speaking to Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon and then to Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and then to our very own illustrious Michael Bennett. I think RFK Jr. got his point across very well. Check this out.
SPEAKER 08 :
Senator, you’ve sat in that chair for how long? 20, 25 years while the chronic disease in our children went up to 76%. And you said nothing. You never asked the question why it’s happening. Why is this happening? Today, for the first time in 20 years, we learned that infant mortality has increased in our country. It’s not because I came in here. It’s because of what happened during the Biden administration that we’re going to end.
SPEAKER 07 :
You want me to indicate a product for which there is no clinical data? Is that what you want? And I know you’ve taken $855,000 from pharmaceutical companies, Senator.
SPEAKER 08 :
Are you saying that a DMRNA vaccine has never been associated with myocarditis or pericarditis? I am saying, I am simply… Is that what you’re trying to tell us? I am simply, Mr. Chairman… Senator, they deserve the truth, and that’s what we’re going to give them for the first time in the history of that agency.
SPEAKER 05 :
So, I don’t know. I think these hearings are… I think they’re ridiculous. I think they’re all dog and pony show, and they’re there to prove a point. Obviously, the Democrats want to take full advantage. Speaking about RFK Jr. specifically, I believe when these lunatic Democrats come out here and do this kind of stuff, they are taking full advantage of the fact that RFK Jr. can’t project. He can’t really yell because of his vocal cord issues. So they just scream over him and they try to make him look bad. And obviously, I don’t like him anyway, because he’s with the Trump administration and whatever. But in the process, I think they make themselves look like a bunch of insane morons. And that’s just me. And, you know, you can’t hide from the fact that Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren and several other people in Congress have taken, you know, cumulatively probably millions of dollars from Big Pharma. So, I don’t know. Most people don’t even see it. They just gloss over it and whatever. It’s just politics as usual, which it is for the most part. And you know what? I’m going to pause here and I’m going to do something a little bit. I’m just going to take a light note here. Now, Sometimes, well, a lot of times probably for me, just ask my husband. He will tell you that I get something stuck in my craw and I can’t let it go. I either have to research it or I have to tell a million people about it and get their take on it, get their opinion on it or whatever. I get stuff stuck in my craw. And if you know me, if you’re listening right now and you know me personally and over the weekend, you probably saw me post a lot about this. And I think I even posted it on Facebook. So over the weekend, I saw one singular video on TikTok that has me reeling and thinking and wishing and just, it’s crazy. So Now, and this is something that I can’t really share in audio with you guys because obviously this is audio only, correct? So I can’t show you guys, but I want to share with you what I saw and how cool it is. I’ve seen this stuff before. For years and years I’ve seen it, but I don’t think it’s ever struck me the way that it did this time. And that is the art of flyboarding. I call it an art. Maybe it’s a sport. Maybe it’s an extreme sport. That’s probably how it’s classified. I don’t really know how it’s classified, but what I do know is that it is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. And I’m going to pause right here. Sandra, what do you got for me?
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, I was listening to you and about the professional athletes and I don’t know if it’s a dirty little secret or if it’s just out in the open or whatever, but I think a lot of these athletes, the teachers and whatnot, starting from junior high, high school, on to college, they do not… They pass these athletes without making the grade. I mean, literally. A lot of them are illiterate when they get out of college. We’ve got a dear friend… that that happened to teachers past him because he was the star athlete, the star quarterback, the star wrestler, and he’s illiterate. And so that’s what’s happening. And I think they just pass it along. And it’s a sad state of affairs.
SPEAKER 05 :
It is sad because that’s not doing them any favors for their short little career that they have, and we all know how difficult it is to get drafted into the NFL. So their career stops at college. Maybe even these careers stop at high school. Who knows? And they get halfway through college, and they’re not doing themselves any favors by just passing them along, and what they’re churning out is just a future criminal or something because they didn’t make the grade, and now they feel bad about themselves, and now it’s just time just to, you know, be a baby daddy to 15 kids and be on welfare and can’t speak, can’t get a job. It’s not doing anything. doing them any good.
SPEAKER 04 :
It’s so sad. I think the other aspect to it, it’s such a gambling thing. I mean, people, I mean, oh my gosh, how many paychecks have gone to these games? I mean, they bet on anything, you know, horsies and golf games and whatever.
SPEAKER 05 :
And look at the fantasy football and the different fantasy football leagues there are and stuff, and yeah, people just go crazy over it.
SPEAKER 04 :
But the football thing, it’s turned into like, you know, in the Roman days, you know, the gladiators. It’s like you’re watching them kind of, it’s off. I mean, I don’t enjoy it. I’m just one of those people. I’d rather watch golf than to tell you the truth.
SPEAKER 05 :
Yeah. And, you know, I don’t mind watching it. And I know the game. I know the rules. I understand what I’m looking at. So it’s something that I like. But I like the game. You know, they always say that football is a game of inches. And it’s really interesting to me in that. And all the technology that they have now on the field with the cameras and the trackers, it’s cool to me to watch, and it’s interesting, and it’s fun. But it’s a game. It is a game. Yes. That’s all it will ever be is a game. With billions of dollars. Yeah, it’s unbelievable. It is. Well, I appreciate your call, Sondra. Thank you very much. Thank you. God bless you. God bless you. Bye-bye. So back to this flyboarding thing. So pretty much every video that I watch, because once you watch that one and you like it and you comment on it, then, of course, the algorithm takes over and shows you a bunch of them. And there are very few of these accounts on TikTok. So when I found this one, I went back, I went onto that account and I watched several of these. And most of them are set to the song Unstoppable by Sia. And I’m sure you know the song. If you don’t know the song, I’m going to play for it here, or Luke’s going to play it for you just in a sec, just a clip of it, just kind of a verse and the chorus. The song itself is motivational. We’ll just say that. And if you’ve never heard the song, let’s play the small clip of it here so you can kind of get your head in this as I describe these videos for you. Check this out.
SPEAKER 10 :
I’m unstoppable today.
SPEAKER 05 :
Okay, so that’s the gist. And so you have to picture that video or that audio playing in kind of what I’m about to describe. So if you have TikTok, please, please, and you can even go to YouTube because some of these videos are on YouTube as well. Go and search the term flyboard rides. And I’ll explain a little bit more in just a second. But flyboard rides, and you can see all of this for yourself. There’s a small pier. Sometimes it’s a floating, kind of a floating pier over the water. And these videos seem to be shot, most of them in Asia somewhere, maybe at a resort somewhere. Bali, I know after doing some research about this, I know that there’s some flyboard ride companies that you can check out in Bali. It’s kind of hard to tell where these videos are shot, but I’m going to say Asia just because of the gentlemen who are operating these boards. But the guy approaches the pier from the water side on a flyboard, and a woman, sometimes in a full-length gown, is standing there, usually barefooted, and they’re waiting to get on the board with this operator. And he grabs her around the waist, and he pulls her onto the board, and he’s kind of got a wide stance, and there’s a place in the middle for her feet. And so she stands on the board, and they take off. And if you’ve ever seen flyboarding at all, you know that they kind of jet up in the air with the water spouts, and it’s all based off of – jet ski kind of thing that’s kind of following him around. But he’s spinning and twirling and sending the flyboard up and down and all around and like they’re going downhill and then uphill and then they spin and go up. And it’s like sky dancing is what I kind of call it. And it’s also obvious that the people who are operating these flyboards are just crazy. they’re absolute professionals. You can tell they’ve been doing it for a very long time because the control that they have over not only the board, but the passenger as well, because they’ve got to keep these passengers on this board with them. And you can also tell sometimes that the passengers who get on the boards have done it many times and they have no fear whatsoever. It is just an amazing thing to watch. Absolutely amazing to watch. And the reason why I’m bringing this up and why I’m talking about it is I actually lost sleep over this the first night that I saw one of these videos because I was thinking there is a really lucrative business opportunity here. I’m always looking for the next big thing, you know, just kind of my brain works that way. I don’t know. I’m weird. But I don’t think there’s anything like this around here. So I did a little digging, and it seems there was once a company called Rocky Mountain Flyboard, but their last posts were from about 12 years ago, and they no longer have a website that I could find. So either they’re defunct or they moved or something. I think they might have been based in Utah at one time, but they weren’t here. And the videos were published 12 years ago. And the equipment, I can tell just by looking at those old videos, the equipment has gotten way more advanced, way more sophisticated than obviously now than what I saw in those videos back then. When we come back, we’re going to continue on with this topic. We’ll be right back.

SPEAKER 05 :
And we are back. I was just talking about something a little bit lighthearted right now, and I’m talking about the act or the art or the extreme sport or whatever you want to call it of flyboarding. And I was talking about the equipment. The old videos that you see, the equipment’s very chunky and large, and the stuff that’s on their feet or anchored to is big, and sometimes they have these big controllers on their hands. And the videos that I saw recently, as of the weekend, the operator of the board, as well as the passenger, actually, they’ve got these, I don’t even know what they, they look like a giant cell phone that’s on a strap on their wrist. I have no idea how any of this works. If you know about flyboarding, give me a call, 303-477-5600. I’d love to pick your brain and ask you some questions because it’s absolutely fascinating. So my son-in-law is a firefighter, and I was telling him that he and a few of his firefighter friends should open a business taking people on rides on these flyboards. Because the shooting jets of water that, you know, allow the board to actually get up off the water and fly around, it seems fitting to me. The big hose that’s attached to the jet ski and the shoots of water coming out, it just seemed very fitting. And I think women of all ages would probably line up for hours to take a five or ten minute ride with a firefighter on a fly board. So I made this whole business plan in my head. Like, you know, I couldn’t sleep. And so I’m thinking, you know, names and logos and all kinds of stuff. But my son-in-law is also very honorable. And he said that he wouldn’t feel right making money off of just the fact that he’s a firefighter. And I get that. It’s not ethical, whatever. I understand completely. So I present this to you if you’re listening to me, son-in-law. Get some firefighters to do this. Have an event once a year at Chatfield and give the money to charity. It could be the biggest fundraiser of the year. Aside from the calendar and the fill-the-boot fundraisers and everything else that you guys do, I think this would be a tremendously successful thing with the right people. exposure and stuff, not only for the people who want to ride, but just to be there as a spectator. Oh, my gosh. How much fun would that be? So go check out those videos. I think that you’re going to be blown. Well, maybe not. I don’t know. I get blown away pretty easy. I’m very easy to impress. So go check out those videos. Go to TikTok or to YouTube and look for Flyboard Rides. Flyboard rides. Try to skip the solo. The solos are very fun, too, because they do flips and all kinds of cool things. But to have the passenger on there, it looks like they’re dancing, and it is just amazing. So go check that out, YouTube or TikTok, searching dancing on flyboard or sky dance flyboard or whatever. And you can find the one where the operators are on with a passenger. They will make you smile, I promise. So on to something a little darker and kind of depressing, actually. Has anyone seen the news about the kissing bugs? Did anyone have deadly kissing bugs on their bingo cards for 2025? Yeah, I didn’t either. So Chagas disease caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzii. and spread by triatamine insects or kissing bugs, is increasingly being detected across the United States, especially in California and the southern states. Research citing human cases confirmed in eight states have called for Chagas disease to be formally classified as endemic within the United States. Transmission occurs when infected kissing bug feces enters the human body, commonly through contact with bites near the eyes or mouth. Oh, goody. If left untreated, the disease can lead to severe heart complications with 20% to 30% of those in the chronic phase affected. Experts emphasize that acknowledging Chagas as endemic in the U.S. is crucial for boosting public health awareness and aligning with global health goals. Other reliable sources further confirm and expand upon the article’s findings. Chagas disease has now been identified in 32 U.S. states. with confirmed cases in humans and animals. So the animals get infected first, and that’s what they’re talking about. That was the eight states where human cases were in the other, I don’t know, 32 minus eight. What is that, Luke? Help me out. I’m stuck at math in my head on the fly. But those are the states that don’t have human cases, just animal cases. So experts estimate that over 300,000 Americans may be infected, many unknowingly, and called for a reclassification of the disease as endemic to promote enhanced surveillance, research, and public awareness. So that’s neat, right? These bugs crawl on your face at night, and they bite you, and then they go to the bathroom, and then you’re infected. So What do you think? You guys know me. You know me. I never take anything at face value. If they tell me something is a threat, I’m usually going to look at what COVID caused this. But I’m not going to look at it for what it is and what they tell me it is. I just want to look at what they’re doing in addition to the news about Chagas and the deadly kissing bug. Do you think it’s a distraction? Do you think it’s intentional? Or do you guys think it’s real? Let me know. Let me know what you think. So I want to talk a little bit, too, about this 23-year-old Ukrainian girl. I’m sure you guys have heard the news by now. The 23-year-old Ukrainian girl, her name was Irina Zarutska, who was brutally stabbed to death on a light rail train in Charlotte, North Carolina. The whole thing was caught on the train security camera, so there’s very little doubt as to whether or not the person charged is guilty or not, even though he’ll have to go through the whole process as if, you know, there’s some question here. But this piece of human filth who did this is named Carlos Brown Jr., and he is a career criminal. He’s got 14 prior offenses. His mother says he suffers from schizophrenia. And for some reason, he always commits a crime, and the judges keep letting him out. After being arrested for armed robbery, the judge let him go on a promise to appear. So this horrendous crime is bad enough. But check this out. A guy named Sean Harry Riley died. A convicted sex offender himself has started a GoFundMe account for the legal defense of DeCarlos Brown Jr., saying he was just as much a victim as Irina Zarutska, because the judicial and mental health systems in North Carolina had failed him. Now, GoFundMe, in their defense, has taken this account down. But when I looked at the screenshots of the front page of the GoFundMe account, there was well over $43,000 in it. I just about fell out of my chair. There are people out there who actually physically went in to GoFundMe and donated to this guy’s legal defense. But then again, we have liberals who cheer for and support the trans, yes, I said it, the trans shooter from Minneapolis in the Catholic school shooting. Prime example of this is there’s a senator, I don’t know if you’ve seen her or heard her or not, but she is a senator from Nebraska. Her name is Michaela Kavanaugh, and she came unhinged, and went on a three-minute rant chanting with supporters of trans ideology who were allegedly out in the rotunda of the Nebraska State Capitol. I can’t hear it in the video. She can hear it, though. I don’t know. Maybe she’s just hearing things, which is very possible. So I’m going to play the audio for you here, and we’ll talk about it on the other side. I’m going to play just a little bit of it because I don’t want to put you through the torture of listening to the entire three minutes. Check this out.
SPEAKER 01 :
Trans people belong here. We need trans people. We love trans people. That’s what they’re saying out there. They’re standing in a circle in the rotunda saying that over and over again. Trans people belong here. We need trans people. We love trans people. Trans people belong here. We need trans people. We love trans people. Trans people belong here. We need trans people. We love trans people. Trans people belong here, we need trans people, we love trans people Trans people belong here, we need trans people, we love trans people Trans people belong here, we need trans people, we love trans people Trans people belong here, we need trans people, we love trans people Trans people belong here. We need trans people. We love trans people. Trans people belong here. We need trans people. We love trans people. Trans people belong here. We need trans people. We love trans people. Trans people belong here. We need trans people. We love trans people. Trans people belong here. We need trans people. We love trans people. Trans people belong here. We need trans people. We love trans people. Trans people belong here. We need trans people. We love trans people.
SPEAKER 05 :
Okay, you guys get the idea. Okay, it just gets louder and more obnoxious and more aggressive from there. Are you shocked to learn that she’s a Democrat or that she has pronouns in her ex-account bio? Now, I ask you, how does a woman like this get the honor of holding any position of leadership anywhere, ever. Town council, dog catcher, I don’t care what it is. How does somebody with that brain end up in any position of power? How does someone who’s clearly off her freaking rocker or off her meds or deranged in some way get to help make decisions that impact families in Nebraska? If you’ve seen the video that goes with that disturbing bit of audio, you know what I’m saying here. This woman looks like she’s possessed by a demon. And I’m not saying that to be funny. She is so creepy in her delivery of that rant of hers that I’m thinking she might not even be human. The way she starts it out, she’s very calm. She’s talking about some people in the rotunda and what they’re chanting and And then she starts this thing, this chant, whatever you want to call it. And she’s standing there in the Capitol at a podium. How is this allowed? I mean, I get irritated with the word decorum. I do. And that, you know, the Senate, the United States Senate or, you know, the halls of Congress, whatever you hear, you hear a lot of fiery hearings in Congress and you always hear Sergeant at Arms or the Senate president or whatever that slams the gavel and we have to maintain some level of decorum. you know, whatever. And sometimes I think, you know what, forget that. I want to see some fists flying here. I want to see chairs run across the room because that’s just how I feel in some of these topics that come up. But if they’re supposed to uphold decorum, why was that three minutes allowed to go on? The last time I checked, Nebraska is a red state with a teeny tiny little blue county. And if she can go off like that on the floor of the Nebraska State Senate, then I think people with actual common sense and legitimate concerns should be able to yell and scream to get their points across if they have to. And looking at her ex-account, she is a doozy. I’ll just tell you that. She is a doozy. But she doesn’t get a big show of support on her post, which thankfully, goodness, I think most of the people, I’d say 99% of the people who are commenting on her posts are 100% against her. So thank God for that. But again, I ask, how does someone like that even get elected to anything, any position, anywhere? I wouldn’t want that crazy psycho cleaning bathrooms at Walmart, let alone having the power to push legislation or make important decisions for our state. Holy cow. So I want to get your take on something here. There’s something that’s bothering me a little bit about this whole Epstein thing. And it’s not bothering me so much for just what it is and what I believe it to be, but it bothers me because of what it’s kind of producing within the Trump community and, I guess, the MAGA movement, or what you’d call it. So the files. Okay. Right. The fight about the files, release the files, don’t release the files. We need to see the files. The files are already. It’s all stuff that we’ve seen already. Is it real? Is it fake? All that stuff. I’ve seen many Trump supporters saying that they’re no longer going to support Trump because of the lack of transparency with the Epstein files and that he isn’t releasing the files because he’s implicated in them. So that’s why he’s not calling for their release. And in actuality, he has said, if you have credible evidence for me, I’d love to see it. Credible being the key term there. And some people are even calling. Now, these are people that are popping up on my Facebook page. And a long time ago, I got rid of all my liberal followers and the people who were friends that I didn’t even know, but I found out them to be raging liberals, and I deleted them as friends because I don’t have patience for that. So people that are Trump supporters are coming out calling Trump a rapist and a pedophile, or they’re saying that Trump is covering for pedophiles. Other people, mostly people who follow Q, are anons or researchers, are saying this is all part of the plan to take down the criminal globalist cabal. Now, for those of you who are questioning Trump’s integrity, or you may think he was BFFs with Epstein, and that he was somehow involved in harming children, I offer you this. According to X22… And that’s the X-22 report. That’s a podcast he’s been on for years and years. And allegedly, Speaker Mike Johnson, some stuff here about him, Trump was an FBI informant, and he’s the one that kind of is responsible for Epstein’s takedown. So according to clandestine on X, Trump tried to help the victims in 2009 and provided information to attorneys to help their case against Epstein, basically trying Once Trump found out Epstein was a monster, he did everything in his power to stop what was going on. Epstein and Trump are not buddies. Trump is Epstein’s greatest enemy, and the Democrats have known this the entire time. Their outrage is absolutely fake. Liz Crokin, if you don’t follow her, you should, actually laid out the timeline of Trump’s takedown of Jeffrey Epstein, and this is what she said. 1997, Trump takes a flight on Epstein’s plane for the last time from Palm Beach to Teterboro, New Jersey. 2004, Trump and Epstein have their public falling out. 2007, Trump bans Epstein from Mar-a-Lago. 2009, Trump is the only person from Epstein’s black book to help attorney Bradley Edwards, who represented several of Epstein’s victims with his case against Epstein. In February 2017, Jeff Sessions is sworn in as Trump’s attorney general and begins the investigation into Epstein and his ring. And with the black book, okay, there’s a lot of people that say there is no such thing as a black book. And what’s funny is everybody, just because, you know, Trump and Epstein were pictured together at parties and that kind of thing, they automatically assume that Trump’s a bad guy, that, you know, because Epstein was a bad guy, Trump’s got to be a bad guy. And they don’t consider any of this other stuff. And, you know, I think, of course, you know, if he flew on the plane one time and Trump found out all this stuff and the black book is, you know, I think somebody I can’t remember who it was that I saw, but somebody had had quoted Epstein as saying that that Trump was Epstein’s biggest brag. Did you guys hear that from somebody that it was his biggest brag? So obviously to have his personal information, his name, his phone number, address, whatever, that was a big deal for Epstein. So Anyway, now, here is where Liz Croken kind of takes a turn for Q, okay? April 2018, Q told us access to Epstein’s island is closed. April 2018, Q highlights Epstein with spending $29 million to bury the tunnels under the temple at his pedophile island. July 2019, authorities arrest Epstein at the Teterboro, New Jersey airport. This is the last place Trump took his last flight with Epstein on his plane. Master level trolling right here. August 2019, the Daily Mail reports that Epstein shipped… A hundred thousand, I don’t know, and this is actually what it says, and I don’t know what this means. If you know construction equipment and cement trucks, please fill me in. A hundred thousand cement truck, and it’s not plural, so I don’t know what that means, to his island in November 2018, confirming what Q already told us about burying the evidence and covering it up or whatever. An expert stated that it can’t be discounted that it was used to cover up evidence. July 2nd, 2020, authorities arrest Delaine Maxwell under Trump’s Department of Justice. August 2024, Trump trolls Epstein’s ring of satanic pedophiles by flying in Epstein’s old plane from multiple campaign stops with Trump 2024 painted on it. September 5th, 2024, Speaker Johnson confirms Trump worked as an FBI informant to take down Epstein. So that’s one thing, and you guys can take that for what it is. I obviously am not an expert, but there’s another thing I wanted to touch on, too, and that is there’s a lot of people that have big, big problems with Trump sitting at this big table in the White House with all the tech giants. Sam Altman and Tim Cook and Bill Gates and Zuckerberg and This is a couple of foreign people, a guy from Google, you know, all kinds of people there. So do you think that Trump, now really, after all you know about Trump and about the problem that he’s had with big tech and about everything else that he’s been very open about, do you honestly think that he is now best friends forever with all those people? To me, that is the most ludicrous thought process in the world. And there’s so many people that are so angry about that meeting, which happens every year, by the way. But now that we are embarking as a country, embarking on all this AI stuff and this big tech and the robotics and the list goes on and on and on, of course, there’s an old saying to keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer, right? He’s trying to do right by the American people. He’s trying to bring jobs, keep jobs in the United States, right, by imposing all these tariffs. He’s trying to entice these countries to come here and do business, to open up the factories here. And for someone to say that Trump is a bad person or a bad guy or he’s sticking it to the American people by having this meeting is just – I don’t know, are you just looking for an excuse to not like Trump? Is that what’s going on? Is it, you know, you’re sick of fighting it, so you’re just going to go with your brother-in-law who’s a Trump hater and, you know, so your holidays are more comfortable, you just decided to bail out on Trump? Is that what’s going on? I don’t understand. If he started out strong and you loved him and all that, why can’t you trust what he’s doing? I don’t know. I guess I’m just the eternal optimist here. And I just feel like there’s people that are just waiting, just waiting for anything to come down the pike and just give them a reason to bail out on Trump. And it bothers me because I think this is just the beginning. There are some really good things that have come out. There are some really good things that are happening now. And for you to bail out on Trump because he had a meeting with Bill Gates, and Bill Gates was probably the biggest downer in that group for everybody because of the vaccines and the whole thing. And if you watch that video, Bill Gates did not look in any way comfortable at all. He looked like there’s about a billion places that he would have rather been than sitting at that table. And probably with due just cause, because Bill Gates is a creep, and I think he’s a criminal, and I think he’s probably a criminal against humanity, and I think Trump knows that. And so, yeah, it was probably very awkward to sit at that table. But you’ve got to understand the big picture. Well, I guess I don’t even understand the big picture, but you have to kind of look at the broader picture. the mural, I guess, and just see all of this for Trump playing. It didn’t, he write the book, the art of the deal. You have to look at it as him playing the game. He is trying to bring jobs and Zuckerberg. I don’t know if you know this or not. I’m sure you do, but he’s building a data center, the size of Manhattan. I think it’s going to be in North Carolina, South Carolina, someplace like that. It’s going to be this gigantic structure and, to hold all the data, which then, you know, that opens up a whole other conversation about the data and our data and they’re taking it all and they’re stealing it all and they’re going to do whatever with it and CBDC and we’re all going to be chipped and live under robots and whatever. Yeah, I guess there’s, you know, that’s a whole rabbit hole that you could go down, but trust it. Just trust Trump. Wait for it. Just wait for it. Because, you know, all I can say is that there’s really not a whole lot that any of us can do about it. And just don’t jump on board with the liberals with this. Just don’t do it. It’s not worth it. Okay? We’ve been right more than we’ve been wrong. So just hang in there. Hang in there, buddy. We’ve got this. Well, that’s going to do it for me today, you guys. Love you all.
