From the Fox News Radio Studios in Midtown Manhattan, it's the fastest growing radio talk show. Brian Kilmead. Welcome to the Brian Kilmead Show. Yes, I am Mary Walter sitting in for Brian Kilmead. Hope everybody's having a great day.
Coming up later this hour, we'll be joined by Daniel Turner. He's the founder of an energy advocacy group called Power the Future. We're going to talk about the big, beautiful bill and how that affects those clean energy tax credits, the restarting of offshore wind projects, didn't see that coming, and gas tax hikes.
So, there's a lot to talk about with him. Let's start off, though, with something I think that just shocked. All of us. And that was the murder of those two beautiful young people coming out of the Jewish Museum in D.C. and by a man who absolutely was more than happy to take credit for it, to discuss it.
Leora Rez is with us. She is the founder of the advocacy group Stop Anti-Semitism. You can follow her on X at Leora Rez, and that's L-I-O-R-A-R-E-Z. Leora, welcome to this show. Thank you for joining me.
Good morning, Mary. Thank you so much for having us. Absolutely. I was shocked, but I was shocked that it happened, but also not surprised at the same time, if that makes sense. Absolutely.
The left-hand side. I left things tenement. Yeah, I want to start by talking about the left to me has a free speech problem. When it suits their purposes, they scream free speech. But when they don't like it, they shut you down.
For instance, I look back at the COVID. What happened with COVID? And then speech that challenged the narrative had to be shut down. The same thing with Joe Biden. If you challenged his mental acuity, if you challenged his physical ability, if you talked about Hunter's laptop, you were shut down by the government.
So the left has all the power of speech in this country. That's changing, thank goodness, with the Trump administration. But. I believe, and I want to hear see what your point of view is. I believe that the left's.
Rhetoric. And their violent rhetoric, and they're like, oh. It really wasn't violent. It just means this. You know, I didn't mean to off President Trump.
I mean, like, you know, just like you dump a dish at a diner. That's what I was talking about. They have a problem, and it's led to this. And I'm curious to find out if you believe that that's how we got here. 100% correct.
That is exactly how we got here. For the past 600 days, from coast to coast. dozens upon dozens of universities. Dozens of white and blue-collar professionals, social media influencers, all screaming at the top of their lungs, globalize the intifada, free, free Palestine. The same rhetoric that the shooter shouted before he killed Sarah Milgram and Yaron Lashinsky in cold blood is the same calls to violence.
So are we heartbroken that this happened? Absolutely. Surprised? Absolutely not. We have been screaming at our lungs that this violent rhetoric will end up with dead Jews, and that's exactly what happened on Wednesday evening, unfortunately.
So how do we balance our right to free speech And stop in s I I guess Rhetoric that incites people, you know, because there's always a crazy out there. And I don't want to see us say, well, you can't say that because a crazy might act on it. You know, I can't be held responsible because there's some crazy person out there who might take my words and misconstrue them. But in my brain, a lot of what is being said is not being construed whatsoever. They actually are calling for the erasure of the Jewish state and Jewish people, and they're doing it here on American soil.
So, how do we balance that First Amendment right with what we're hearing? Yeah, absolutely. Listen, I'm a refugee from the former Soviet Union. My family fled socialism and communism when I was a small child, thankfully, to the United States. And I could not be more proud to be a United States citizen and American.
Freedom of speech is one of the strongest values that a country can ever hold. That being said, no one has the right to call for violence against Anyone else.
So when Jews tell you that ABC is a call for violence and it will end up with dead Jews, you have to listen to them. And I have to tell you what we're seeing on college campuses with globalized intifada and yada yada and death to Israel and then quickly followed by death to America. Jews are a small obstacle in this. America are these radicals, radicals' end goal is to create division, to create chaos. and collapse of the West.
This isn't just a Jewish problem. It's truly, truly the enemy of the United States and every patriot and proud American here. And when we look at what happened on Wednesday night, we have. Individuals, such as a TikTok influencer with millions and millions of followers, Guy Christensen, who takes to social media within 24 hours of this brutal murder and he calls the two victims war criminals. He essentially justifies the murder of these two individuals.
It's exactly what happened in the death and the brutal murder of the CEO of United Healthcare with Luigi Mangioni, how we see individuals and radicals romanticize what he did. It's shocking. Absolutely. We now are justifying.
Well, we aren't, but the left is now justifying death and murder. Based on Your values, political party, what you do for a living, et cetera, your religion, et cetera. And that, to me, is a very, very dangerous place for us to be. How did we get here?
Well, if we look at this particular shooter, Elias Rodriguez, dating back 2016, 2017 approximately. He belonged and affiliated to a radical leftie group by the name of Party for Socialism and Liberation. And we actually, they came on our radar after they were stickering or defacing a college campus with stickers that said exterminate Zionism and or exterminate Zionists, which is just a modern day slogan and fancy word for Jews, just a spin on Nazi-esque propaganda. And when we brought this incident to the attention of the Chicago mayor's office We were completely ignored. Fast forward to last year.
uh probably for a good month to two months. The staff at the Israeli embassy was being harassed by known identified individuals who were throwing red paint to mimic blood on their cars. throwing up Nazi salutes. Capitol Police and law enforcement just stood there. The mayor's office, after not only us, but various organizations and Israeli staff members.
brought this to the mayor's attention. did absolutely nothing.
So again, Wednesday night when two young Israeli staff members, embassy staff members, were gunned down in cold blood, when we see the mayor of DC, we don't stand for anti-Semitism, we're doing everything to prevent anti-Semitism. complete baloney. Absolutely not. There were warning signals. They did nothing.
They propagated. They greenlighted this. And now when we have two young dead Jews, this is when they're standing in front of the cameras with their crocodile tears. Yeah, and coming up, I want to talk to you about the people behind all of this. Who are the people who are the members of this group?
The useful idiots that have been propagandized into doing this and some of the money that is behind this that is funding that? Because that's a big question, and maybe we can get to the bottom of this.
So hang on, we have more coming up with Leora Rez, the founder of Stop Anti-Semitism. That's coming up on the Brian Kilmead Show. Coming to you on a need-to-know basis, because Mandy, you need to know. It's Brian Kilmead. It is time to take the quiz.
It's five questions in less than five minutes. We ask people on the streets of New York City to play along. Let's see how you do. Take the quiz every day at thequiz.box. Then come back here to see how you did.
Thank you for taking the quiz. From his mouth to your ears, it's Brian Kilmead. We've been advised that the defendant has appeared in court. He's had an attorney appointed. He's been advised by the judge that he could be punished by death or by life.
And of course, we set detention. The defendant waived his right to a detention hearing and concedes to detention. That right there is interim U.S. Attorney Janine Pirro saying the defendant in the shooting of those two young people, Yaron Lushinsky and Sarah Milgram, Israeli embassy staffers on Wednesday night in D.C., may very well face the death penalty because they've reinstated the federal death penalty. Discussing this with us is Leora Rez.
She's the founder of the advocacy group Stop Anti-Semitism. Leora, do you think that the possibility of seeing some actual consequences for your actions might actually start to deter some people, or does it just drive it underground? You know, that's such a wonderful question. We've been asked this now probably for a few Going on seven years ever since I founded Stop Anti-Semitism. That is the core of what we do.
We create actions and consequences against those that espouse bigotry and hatred against the Jewish people. And Will it drive it underground? No. Will it drive it and should it drive it back into the sewers where it belongs? Yes, absolutely, it should, because we've gotten to a point where we are so used to hatred and violence.
Um We're just not really blinking our eyes. At this point, whether you're looking at the countless school shootings, whether you're looking at assassins, literal assassins like Luigi Mangione and now Elias Rodriguez, these are, like you had just said and Judge Pierrot had pointed out, they're now eligible for the death penalty, which is exactly what should be happening. What we're seeing happen instead for Elias Rodriguez, we saw a fundraiser pop up on the internet. we're seeing, like I had mentioned a few moments ago, social media influencers who are in the ears of Gen Zers with millions of followers on social media. Referring to the victims as war criminals and essentially promoting what happened to them and calling for more violence.
So yeah, we have to see severe consequences to help deter anything like this from happening in the future again.
So, we don't have a lot of time left, and there's so many questions I want to ask you. But Chris Cuomo came out and just unloaded on the left and said, We know the shooter is a far-left activist caught on camera shouting Free Palestine. And as he was arrested, he kept chanting the slogan and said, I did it for Gaza.
So, why the F are all these people on the left saying, if true, and if that's who he is, and if he's not an IDF plan, he said, You know, why are you doing this? He said, I understand, you know, you don't like Trump. But y that doesn't mean that you justify this.
So could the media on the heels of what happened with Joe Biden and being called out and being wrong about that, could the media be waking up? Or is this just a save your butt situation? No, I think actually if you're I mean, listen, when we're referring to former President Joe Biden, I mean, we can see what CNN anchor Jake Tapper, he's doing currently a book tour, you know, essentially Maya Culpas with no, Joe Biden Does have health issues and so on and so forth. I was wrong. Kudos to him for admitting he was wrong.
Um You know, CNN played into that role where no, he's not old, there's nothing wrong with him, this is just a right wing conspiracy. Fast forward to twenty twenty five, you have again a CNN anchor with this book out. Yes, in fact, all of these rumors and deep fake videos, accusations, there was something indeed wrong with Joe Biden. Unfortunately, now he has a severe cancer diagnosis. Um nobody really knows what.
what the prognosis is.
So we are seeing the media do somewhat of a turnabout. When we actually looked at a CNN's interview yesterday with a victim or a witness, excuse me, of the Wednesday night incident in D.C., He said to the CNN anchor. The hatred that I saw in the shooter is the same hatred, he was a grad student at Columbia University, as these protesters. She had the gall to essentially defend these rioters, these mob rioters calling for the death and destruction of Jews. Whether they're students or not.
And he sat there, really put her back in her place, flabbergasted that she's defending these individuals that led to the murder of Sarah and Yaron.
So I think there are some in the media that are saying like, wow, yeah, this is resulting in in a dead this is a dead U. S. citizen. Sarah Milgram is a U. S.
citizen killed on American soil. That should frighten all of us, whether you're Jewish or not. Yeah, no, 100%. We only have a couple of minutes left, but you know, you mentioned Columbia. The people who were doing the rioting and the destroying of property on these college campuses and injuring security officials, and the latest one we saw was at Columbia University, where they took the library over, they renamed it after a terrorist, they damaged things inside.
We're finding out that they are really, really rich kids, very pampered rich kids who have no clue what any kind of hardship is like. How do they become so radicalized? And I don't have a lot of time for you to answer that question, but as quickly as you can, how do they become radicalized? Yeah, Columbia University, whether it's a president or board of directors, they've been greenlighting this for years. There's absolutely no consequences to actions.
And essentially, where we are right now, today, Friday, May 23rd, the inmates are running the asylum.
So, because there have been and we were just talking about consequences, as Judge Denine was saying, possible death penalty. The Trump administration is really hammering Harvard University. They went after Columbia. Columbia said, okay, now we're going to get rid of the encampments. We're going to start to rein this in.
Can the federal government force places like Columbia to stamp out this hate speech?
So if the university is essentially not able to do it themselves and they accept federal funding, absolutely. It is the role of the government, again, if they accept federal funding to take a step in or withdraw that federal funding, like we're seeing right now at Harvard. And if Columbia is unwilling, we don't want slaps on the hand, suspensions and then rightaway reinstatements. No, expel these students, revoke their diplomas. And they're not doing that.
They are taking these little steps to appease the federal government and the Trump administration. And it's just not working. We also found that there was a Bloomberg, it's being reported, a Bloomberg journalist was among those radicals that stormed the Columbia Library and was arrested.
So they are in our media, which explains why the media is so slanted and defends them. And lastly, Alex Soros put out a statement saying the murder of Sarah Milgram and Jeron Leshinsky was evil in its most basic form. This is a brutal, anti-Semitic act, must be condemned. But yet his Open Society Foundation, we know through research and reporting, Yes. Funds a lot of these organizations.
Yes.
So out of one mouth, and this is exactly like the DC Mayor what I was I was expressing earlier on your show. On one end, The DC mayor's office is doing nothing for months, weeks upon weeks. When Israeli staff members are being harassed on a daily basis. when two young Jews or two young Israeli staff members are gunned down in cold blood, this is when she comes out and says, no, this doesn't belong in our city, we're doing everything possible, yada, yada.
So you can have it both ways because no, she wasn't doing everything possible. Right. Yeah, you can't have it both ways. This has been such a fascinating conversation. Thank you so much for joining me.
Leora Rez, founder of Stop Anti-Semitism. And you can find her on exit, Leora Rez, L-I-O-R-A-R-E-Z. Thank you so much for joining me. Coming up next, Danielle Turner with Power the Future on the Brian Kilmead Show. Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile.

And welcome to the Brian Kilmead show. If you're just joining me, I'm Mary Walter sitting in for Brian Kilmead. Don't forget, you can follow me on X at Mary Walter Radio. There's no S on that, and actually, that's all my socials. It's Mary Walter Radio.
You can get my podcast on YouTube and get her at Mary Walter Radio and also Apple Podcast Spotify. And Spreaker.
So, lots of places you can find that. Let's talk about. Power. Everybody's complaining about the price of gasoline. You know, go electric vehicle.
Let's find out from someone who knows. Daniel Turner is the founder of an energy advocacy group called Power the Future. You can find him on X at Daniel Turner, PTF for Power the Future. Thank you for joining me, Daniel. Oh, it's great to be on with you this morning.
Thank you. Absolutely. So, all right, let's talk about the Big Beautiful Bill. Apparently, in the Big Beautiful bill, they're going to terminate tax breaks for people who buy or lease electric vehicles and some of the other tax credits for making your home more energy efficient. These were part of the Inflation Reduction Act.
So, this House legislation would end the tax breaks after 2025, with a couple of exceptions, which is seven years earlier than the current law.
So, if you get a $7,500 tax credit for a new EV or you are leasing an EV, that's going to be gone. And $4,000 credit for used EVs. Is this a good thing? Oh, I think it's definitely a good thing. I don't think the government should be in the position of deciding what we should be driving and subsidizing people's consumer choices.
I have no problem with EVs. If you want to buy one, buy one. I think they're cool technology. I personally would not buy one, and we can talk about that why. But if you want to buy one, why should the taxpayers be making it easier for you?
And in a larger economic sense, if you really value the EV industry, if you think they are important for whatever reason, Then the best thing the EV industry could do Is compete in the free market. That's how we get better products. And so by subsidizing them to this extent, you're not even really making EVs compete in the free market.
So where's the incentive to make a better product, a better car, a more efficient EV, more cost-friendly EV?
So it's even bad for EVs itself.
So this is a great step in the right direction. And I'm glad they got rid of this part of the Inflation Reduction Act. Yeah, I don't like the government picking winners and losers, which they do all the time in order to gain votes. I get it. That's what they do.
They use my money. But I'm with you. I would not buy an EV. I do have a hybrid, which is not plug-in. It's gasoline-powered.
And I love it. When I was commuting to my job in D.C. from New Jersey, I would fill up in South Jersey, and my tank was over 600, almost 700 miles to a tank, depending on how I drove, right? Which is amazing because I don't pump gas because I live in New Jersey.
So if I leave the state, I need something where I could calculate exactly. I get down there, how much gas I would have left, drive her out a little bit, and then make it back to New Jersey so that I wouldn't have to pump gas in another state.
Well, hybrids are great for that reason, and you are exposing what Toyota has been saying. And Toyota is the world's largest car maker, and Toyota never jumped in the EV market. And the CEO of Toyota, much to the wrath of the Biden administration, the CEO said, We're never going to go EVs because that's not where consumers want to be, and we don't think it's a good business decision.
So they have always pushed hybrids. And, you know, I got to say, They took a gamble when the world was jumping in the EV space and everyone was being forced by the Biden administration to go the EV route. Toyota held their ground, and it turns out they made the right decision. Yeah, I love it. I think it's fantastic.
And the only problem is it's automatic. You can't get it in a manual.
So that's my love me a manual transmission. Manuals are hard to find. I was trying to find a manual truck, actually, mostly because it makes me feel more like a man driving a stick shift than a truck. I'm not going to lie. But there's also an anti-theft component because no one knows how to drive it.
And you can't find manuals very easily anymore. And that's sad. We're heading to DC for the Memorial Day concert on Sunday. And I said to my husband, I said, we should not take my Honda, my hybrid, which is automatic. I said, we should take one of the other cars because we could leave it unlocked with the keys in it and it'll be there in the morning.
100%. No one knows how to drive it. And I wish those are the types of decisions that were still left to consumers. When I was a kid, first learning to drive, I'm sorry, sticks were, I think they were like $2,000 cheaper, right? You could buy cheaper.
An accord, or you could buy an accord manual, and it would be about $2,000 cheaper. And you don't even seem to have that option anymore. Like, they've just kind of eliminated it completely. And I think that's unfortunate. Yeah, now you are, some vehicles you pay more for the stick because they just don't really make them.
They don't sell.
So, since we're talking about this, the EVs and the mandates and all that stuff, you have Vermont Governor Phil Scott just issued an executive order on Tuesday. And they're now pausing their plan on making the state, you know, only electric vehicles being sold in the state by 2035. I know New Jersey has the same thing here, the People's Socialist Republic of New Jersey, of which I am an inmate. And they want to do the same thing here. But Vermont says, you know what, we don't have the infrastructure for this, and they're not selling.
People don't want them. And they join a couple of other states, including Connecticut, Maryland, Virginia, and Delaware, that have also withdrawn or modified their plans to mandate electric vehicles.
So two-part question. Number one, can they even legally mandate that I buy an electric vehicle? That's number one. And number two, the states that have not pulled them back yet, how do you see this rollout, the success of it happening? Yeah, that's a great question.
And the first part, they probably wouldn't make you force you to buy an EV. They would just take away your option to buy anything but an EV. And they would say, well, look, we're not forcing you to buy an EV. We're just saying that all the other options have been removed.
So by limiting your options, we are deciding what you do. And that doesn't strike me as thoroughly American. It's, again, using the big force, the big hand of government and government coercion and government force to mandate a certain lifestyle. When it comes to the EV mandates, and you see this in states like California, it does put the government in an enormous position of responsibility. Because right now, when you drive your hybrid, as you were just saying, I've been on the Jersey term bike a million times.
I know all the rest stops going from DC to New York to see mom. You are on your own to find gas, and the free market determines where the gas is. When you are required to use an EV and you have to plug it in.
Well, who decides the charging stations, right? Is it the free market? Who decides that the electric grid is going to work tonight? You see states like California, where Governor Newsom has told people, Hey, the grid is struggling. Please don't charge your EV at nighttime, which kind of stinks if you have to commute the next day, right?
When am I supposed to charge my EV if I can't charge it at night? How do I get to work in the morning? What do I do if I wake up at 2 a.m.? And I have to take my wife to the emergency room or my kid, or I go into labor, right? Or I had a heart attack and the EV is not plugged in.
What do you do if the state starts burning down? And because of Governor Newsom's terrible forest management policy or lack of forest management, California burns quite a bit, but my EV is not charged because the governor said I can't charge it.
So this is the problem with these EV mandates: you're forcing a lifestyle choice, but you're also putting a lot of pressure on government to provide the resources to fulfill that lifestyle choice, or you leave people stranded. And I don't trust the government to provide me with electricity. I really don't.
Well, I want to talk about that coming up because it may not just be our government to deprive us of electricity. There may be a foreign government that has the ability to do that. And I also, if we have time, I want to jump jam in here. The offshore wind projects off the East Coast. And a surprise that I thought, I thought it was a surprise in the big, beautiful bill regarding.
That. Our guest is Daniel Turner, founder of Power the Future. More with him coming up on the Brian Kilmey Show. Diving deep into today's top stories, it's Brian Kilmead. A radio show like no other.
It's Brian Killmead. I'm Mary Walters sitting in for Brian Kilmead. I'm joined by Daniel Turner, the founder of Power the Future, which is an energy advocacy group, talking about the government, you know, and the government being able to shut off our electricity. And you talk about these smart meters we were all forced to get, which I find hilarious because the guy from the electric company still comes, drives around in my driveway, and then sits there and reads the meter remotely instead of getting out to read it.
So I don't quite know why I had to have a smart meter. because they don't have to read them, but they do. Let's talk about China, shall we? And China's ability to shut off our electric. We now know that Chinese made.
Devices for solar power that Unexplained communication equipment was found inside some of them, the power inverters, which are produced in China, they're used throughout the world, and they connect solar panels and wind turbines to electricity grids. They're also found in batteries, heat pumps, electric vehicle chargers, etc. Why would there be communication devices in these inverters? Yeah, this is a story that deserved a lot more attention. I'm glad you're talking about it.
There is such a level of naivete when it comes to our treatment of China and China's influence in our economy, in our culture. It is mind-boggling to me, absolutely mind-boggling, that we import these products from a country who absolutely hates us and has every desire to destroy us. And yet you see something like the Inflation Reduction Act, which is just the transfer of wealth of hundreds of billions of dollars to buy wind and solar that rarely works, is very expensive, is made with slave labor. And now you find out it has listening devices installed within. I don't know how much more we need to do, China needs to do, how much further we have to go before we kind of wake up collectively and say, we have a really bad Chinese problem in this country.
I saw Trump, the President Trump just announced Tariffs on Apple, right, for making it. Yeah, great minds think alike. 25%, I was going to bring that up, yeah. Yeah, for making their products there. And, you know, I don't blame a corporation for saying we would much rather make it there because nine-year-old girls are a lot cheaper than American laborers who want things like Memorial Day weekend, right, and healthcare.
You don't have to do that when you have Uyghur slaves making your cell phone.
So, of course, Apple wants to manufacture in China. Same with Nike, same with most companies. But what we're doing is we're just outsourcing all of our values, right? We're saying, well, we would never treat our workers that way, but we'll call it free trade and let China treat their workers that way and then celebrate the fact that we have cheap crap. iPhones are very important, no doubt.
Computers are important, but the components of our electric grid, your iPhone and your computer is nothing without electricity. And these very, very important products are made by a country who hates us and wants to destroy. Us. Again, I don't know how much more we can take before we wake up to the China threat that we face as a country. Yeah, it's insane.
And I agree with you. And I'm glad that President Trump is now saying, hey, you got to make your iPhones in this country because of these listening devices. How much information is China? It has just set up a huge spy ring in this country. And we allow it.
And a lot of times we're paying for it. We're subsidizing it. Speaking of paying, I want to talk about the Big Beautiful Bill. And apparently, Donald Trump ordered the administration to stop the work order that stopped the wind farm that was going to be constructed off the coast of New York.
Now, there's still one going in off the coast of New Jersey. And he railed about the death to the wildlife, to the whales, to the dolphins. These bodies are just washing up on the shore. It's so sad. And he blamed it on the drilling for these wind turbines.
But he did it in exchange for two natural gas pipeline projects.
Now, I get he's a wheeler-dealer, you know, he's a deal maker.
So, you know, both sides came out feeling like they won. But these offshore wind projects, to me, they just seem to be just dump the money in the ocean because I just don't see them succeeding. No, and they haven't succeeded anywhere worldwide. And that's the funny thing: we're not looking at wind turbines with this ideal in mind that these are going to take off and they're going to be reliable and it's going to bring down costs. We have models all across the world of countries that have done this, and we see what has happened to their countries, their economies, their electric grid.
We just need to look at Europe and see what they pay for electricity, the unreliability of their grid. Countries like Germany are in complete economic decline because manufacturing plants can't operate because utility prices are so high.
So it's a little frustrating. Don't get me wrong. I understand the art of negotiation. Donald Trump. Trump is the art of the deal.
These natural gas pipelines are very important, especially for New York and all of New England, which is desperate for reliable natural gas. But it is disappointing to see these wind farms go up because they're not going to work. I mean, I'll stake my entire life and reputation on that. You look at Block Island off of the coast of Rhode Island. They built a wind farm.
I think it is still under repair after only a couple of months of operation. Utility rates are absolutely through the roof. The company that built the wind farm sold it at an enormous profit and left. And now the people of Block Island and the people of Rhode Island are stuck with these five or six monsters off the coast that do absolutely nothing. They have a modern art sculpture now off the coast of Rhode Island.
And that's exactly what's going to happen to these wind farms. They just don't work. And we have to stop pretending that they do because nowhere in the world have they worked. If work, now let me be clear, if work is understood as lowering. costs and providing reliable base load power to the grid.
If work is we're reducing emissions, right? Or if work is we're fighting the climate, well then sure they work great. But if work is actually good for consumers and good for grid reliability, nowhere in the world has it worked. But the rest of this part, the other question I have, and we only have a couple minutes here, but the rest of it is like, okay, so what happens when you're building something in an area where tornado, wait, or excuse me, where hurricanes hit? You know, the Jersey shore, Long Island, off Long Island.
Now, granted, it's not as much. We don't get as many high-rated areas, we don't get like threes and fours, we don't get Cat 3, 4, 5. A lot in those areas, usually that's much more further south. But I would assume that they would be destroyed in something like Sandy. Oh, absolutely.
Yeah. And I know Hurricane Sandy intimately. My parents lost their house on Long Island. My brother did. Most of my aunts and uncles did.
So I remember Sandy very, very well. We do get hurricanes in that part of New York and New Jersey, and it's not common, but it does happen. And yeah, we saw this with Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico. They made a huge push to go wind and solar and be green. And then Hurricane Maria devastated that country.
And that was just one more. Thing that made it hard for Puerto Rico to get back online because now they didn't have power. And you know what withstands a hurricane? A coal plant. You can hate coal all you want, but the coal plant will withstand a hurricane, and a natural gas plant will withstand a hurricane, and a nuclear plant will withstand a hurricane.
And then when the hurricane passes, they turn back on. You can't say that about wind and solar. And no matter how many you build, if a hurricane comes, they're going to be destroyed. And that's never going to change. Very quickly, was this a good deal then that Trump made here?
It was good to get the natural gas pipeline. If that's what it took, I think so. My holdout for these wind farms is that in five years, we'll be able to point to them and say, see, this is why we stopped doing it because these are ridiculous and they don't work and they break and they corrode. And so there'll be a model of what not to do going forward. A very expensive, costly model of what not to do.
But you know what? That's why God gave us new. York and New Jersey, because they tell the rest of America what not to do on crime, on sanctuary status. All right, now hold on just a second here. I'm a New Yorker.
I'm a New Yorker. I can say that. California is way worse than we are. I mean, Phil Murphy's trying to make New Jersey the California of the East, but thank goodness he's out of office come November.
So there's that. Daniel Turner, thank you so much for joining me. You can follow him on exit, Daniel Turner, PTF for Power the Future. Great discussion, super interesting. And maybe we could all buy parts of these wind turbines, you know, and give them away to each other for Christmas when they no longer work.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. More coming up on the Brian Kilmeet Show. From high atop Fox News headquarters in New York City, always seeking solutions, never sowing division. It's Brian Kilmead.
And welcome to the Brian Kilmead Show.
So great to have you. You can follow me on X at Mary Walter Radio. There's no S in that. It's actually all the socials. It's Mary Walter Radio.
Don't forget my podcast airs on Tuesdays. I've just had a great podcast this past Tuesday. It's amazing and fantastic and wonderful and was on Joe Biden's when he was vice president, his stenographer.
So look for Mary Walter Radio on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Spreaker, YouTube, and Getter. And you can watch it or listen to it in one of those places. And let's talk a little bit about your health. Let's talk about Maha. We should have had a different name.
It doesn't quite work like MAGA, but Maha. With Dr. Tom Kirsting, he's a licensed psychotherapist, family counselor, and author of Raising Healthy Teenagers. Find him on X at Tom Kirsting with a G on the end of it. Dr.
Tom, thank you for joining me here on the Brian Kilmead Show. How are you? I'm doing great, mahalo. No, I meant maha. I'm only kidding.
It sounds Hawaiian when I hear maha. I'm doing well. How are you, Mary? Doing great. Yeah, they need another name.
It just sounds weird saying maha. Maha.
So much is coming out of that. And a lot of this whole Maha movement, and then one of the things that they're doing is they're. They're looking at a lot of kids, which is great. There's a lot to look at when it comes to the health of the American people as a whole, but a lot of it does start with the younger generation. And I look back at what we grew up with.
I mean, I grew up in New Jersey drinking water out of a hose, right? Out of a garden hose.
So I kind of figure that my immune system is probably at 11 at all times because it's been pumped up so much. And I kind of look at the younger generation because they got the hand sanitizer and everything else going on. I'm like, I don't know if we want to change too much about what we had when we were growing up. We didn't get as many vaccines. I got just saying, I got the measles vaccine and I got the measles.
So I'm double protected. But we, we had, I think, more illnesses naturally, like we had the chickenpox and we got over it. And My mother gave us Tang instead of orange juice because the astronauts took it to the moon.
So it was therefore better, right?
So, um, could. There's a lot to be addressed when it comes to this. What are some of the things that you would like to see changed as far as dietary a part of the equation when it comes to our kids. Yes, I actually have a chapter in Rapeman, my book, Raising Healthy Teenagers, about the childhood obesity epidemic, which is actually the number one health threat to kids. We don't realize that.
Wait, wait, wait, hold on.
So true. Hold on, I'm sorry to interrupt you. But you know, that's a great point. We ate crap. We ate Pop-Tarts like there was no tomorrow, and we were not obese.
Exactly. I mean, I grew up in New Jersey too, drinking out of a hose and eating plenty of McDonald's when I was a kid. But part of it is, yes, it's the the food has changed. We all know that, the processed foods, major contributor, even just portion sizes. But another thing in terms of this obesity epidemic is lack of physical activity.
Kids are indoors on screens all day long. And even those that are on bikes now, I still live in New Jersey, they don't have to pedal the bikes anymore. They're electric bikes. Right. So that is certainly not going to help with this obesity epidemic because you get a kid that's outdoors but actually isn't getting exercise because they don't have to pedal.
So it's a real multifaceted problem, and I'm glad it's being addressed finally. We also didn't wear helmets and Exactly. Exactly. And I look at some of we were over by our school here in town, it's an elementary school, and we're looking at there's no swings. And they have the things to climb on, but it's on top of rubber, like recycled tires.
And it's like, we climbed on cement and steel that was the temperature of the surface of Mercury, the planet of Mercury, and it was on top of asphalt.
Now, I'm not saying that's necessarily better. But I think that maybe there's some kind of healthy In between. You know, like, yes, we have to be safer. And I'm not saying that we shouldn't keep our kids safe. But to what you're saying is, yeah, they're riding these scooters everywhere.
They don't even pedal their bicycles anymore. Are we making it almost too easy for them? Yeah. Yeah, I mean, this generation, you know, there it's the instant gratification generation, right? You hit a button, DoorDash delivers it, Amazon delivers it, you don't have to pedal your bike anymore.
There's not much movement. And play is down seventy percent in recent years for kids. And every time a child goes outside and plays, it activates something like three thousand genes in the cortex part of their brain. And that's what shapes them socially. That's a whole nother topic right there, the the social dilemma that we're experiencing among among our kids because they're not really socializing nearly as much in a face-to-face manner.
No, no, that's a great point. And I think that plays into with what I want to talk about next, which is devices. I cringe whenever I see a kid in a stroller who starts to cry, and mom or dad just hands them their phone or a screen of some sort. And I'm like, stop it, give them a book, do something else. Why the screen?
They get so addicted to the screen. This is just my opinion. At such a young age, it's soothing to them. They love to see it. I get it.
But they never take their face out of it. They get older and their face is in there more. They don't know how to communicate verbally. I just read a study that said something like: only 45% of guys aged 18 to 25 have ever asked a girl out in person. They don't know how, right?
They can't communicate.
So we, yes, advancements are great. Yes, we're keeping our kids safer. Parents don't like them going outside to play because they're going to get abducted. But what harm is happening to our kids with the alternative, which is these electronic screens? Yeah.
So I remember, you know, when the my previous book disconnected, when the uh it's all about screen time, when the first came out in uh late the first edition came out in late twenty sixteen. We were on vacation, my wife and kids, in Aruba, there's this big restaurant, open air, and I'm walking through the restaurant, right, and it's all families, and every single kid Had their face buried in a screen, and my heart rate was going up, and I was looking for the defibrillator because I thought I was going to go down. And all I envisioned, I wish I had a box of books that I could have started flipping around to these parents because they don't understand the detrimental nature of putting a screen in a kid's face, especially at a young age. Never mind what's being downloaded into their brains. We know that, right?
There's so much information going directly to that malleable subconscious, but it's severing the parent-child relationship. You know, you can't if your kid is in a screen all the time when you're out to dinner, there's no, quote, relationship there, right? And the number one predictor m uh for a child's mental health outcomes Is the relationship they have with their parents.
So that's something, you know, when I'm lecturing all over, you know, I talk about that and a lot more, but most importantly, is this relationship element.
So think of households. You know, it's like four individuals we call family. Doesn't resemble anything like the Brady bunch. It's more like four people just including the parents in a separate room on a screen with no relationship. Yeah.
So the communication issue is a big deal. I watch my nieces, but when they were younger, they're better now, but when they were younger, they'd be on the beach with their girlfriends, and they all have their heads, and they're talking to each other on Snapchat or whatever it is. And that's how they were literally messaging each other instead of lifting their head up and speaking to the person next to them. Let's talk about Snapchat. There are quite a few lawsuits around Snapchat with state attorney generals from Nevada and New Mexico bringing cases, significant cases, against the company.
And a lot of this has to do with sextortion of our kids. And you see these kids who, you know, are said, hey, send me a picture, and they send a compromised picture, which why I have no idea. You tell them not to do it. They do it anyway, they're kids. And then the person on the other end, who's often in a foreign country, says, Well, I'm going to send this picture to your parents and your grandparents and your friends and everything else if you don't give me, if you don't send me $5,000.
And you see kids. Committing suicide over things like this. How do parents deal with something like that? Because the kids don't want to tell their parents, right?
So, how do you know what's going on on your kids' Snapchat? Yeah, and this has been going on for a long time. But to your point there, when I'm out lecturing, right, I'm. And for parents particularly, it's, you know, why does our child have to have Snapchat? When are we going to put our foot down as parents and say, no, you're not getting Snapchat?
I don't care if everybody else has Snapchat. You're not getting it. You know, that's what we really need to start doing is collectively, because it becomes a social conformity. Parents are afraid, well, my kid doesn't have a phone, he can't go on Snapchat, they're not going to have any social life.
Well, they don't really have social life anyway, because socializing is face-to-face in person.
So parents, you know, if their kid already has Snapchat, the best thing that we with the best, the best tip for For any parents or grandparents listening right now, is that those devices should never be in our children's bedrooms, okay, particularly at night. because it's causing a sleep deprivation epidemic. But when when they're in that bedroom, we can't have our eyeballs on them, right?
So that's a if you get get your kid a phone, just have a rule. You're not allowed to be on your phone by yourself in the bedroom. You got to be down in the family room. I like that idea. My brother-in-law, excuse me, my brother and sister-in-law did that, and I think it really, really went a long way.
Coming up, I want to talk about some of these bans when it comes to things like SNAP, you know, also known as food stamps, popularly known as food stamps, things that they're trying to be able to ban from being bought with food stamps. And some of these health epidemics that came out in this Maha report, some of the findings in there, like childhood obesity, et cetera, and how we. Change Americans' thinking if we can around some of these health issues. It's a very hard thing to do. I watched my 600-pound life, so I know this isn't easy.
More coming up with Dr. Tom Kirsting here on the Brian Kill Me Show. Illuminating, intriguing, inculcating. I know some of these words. It's Brian Kilmead.
The more you listen, the more you'll know. It's Brian Killmead. A few decades ago, one in one, think of this one. This is to me the one that gets me. every time and it seems to be getting Worse.
Just a few decades ago, one in 10,000 children had autism. Today it's One in thirty-one. Last time I heard the number is one in 34, right?
Now it's one in 31. There's something wrong, and we will not stop until we defeat the chronic disease epidemic in America. We're going to get it done. As President Trump yesterday at the White House, when they were talking about the Maha report that came out yesterday, joining us is Dr. Tom Kirsting to discuss that.
He's a licensed psychotherapist, family counselor, and author of Raising Healthing Teenagers. And when we're done here at the bottom of the hour, I want to take your calls on this. 866-408-7669. 866-408-7669. The autism rise, the rise in autism.
Are we getting better at at diagnosing it? Or is there something happening, and I think it's chemically, in our children's brains that is somehow caused by what they're exposed to? I think it's a combination of both, but I think it's more the latter. There's something, whether it's all these vaccines. I saw some chart recently where you look at kids like the 1980s and they got like, I don't know, a handful of vaccines.
Now it's like dozens of vaccines like in infancy.
So I'm hoping that they do their research and figure out what's causing it. But I certainly notice it anecdotally, as a therapist, a lot more kids. And as far as diagnosing it, like yeah, you can go back to like d decades ago and a child that was considered like the the the weird kid, you know, maybe hell maybe was on the autism spectrum but wasn't diagnosed. But I'm seeing some more severe cases, like, you know, serious autism, because there is a range. We used to have something called I'm sorry, there's a big range in autism.
So, somebody could have mild autism, they function fine, they do well academically, but then there are those that have more severe cases where they're not, you know, they're not really going to be able to get a job one day, they're going to be under the care of their parents for the rest of their lives. But something needs to give. We have to find out what's going on. Absolutely. Part of that, I think, and I like seeing RFK Jr.
targeting things like petroleum-based food dyes. Who needs a big bowl of petroleum, right?
Now, your fruit loops may not be as vibrant as they were when we were children and we were sucking down the exon-flavored. fruit loops but I I think that that's a step that's that should be a no brainer. That should be something that we should all be screaming for. What are some of the other things that you see RFK doing doing that you think are good? Like for instance, vaccines, he's calling about questioning that as well.
Yeah, I mean, you know, wi this stuff has to be investigated.
Now, as far as the food and all these dyes and all this other stuff, this is basically garbage. This is junk. There's zero nutrition, right, coming from fruit loops and these and these cereals, right? The same cases with all these, you know, different sweet and soft drinks, right?
So uh for example, uh you know, a a soda can have eight to ten teaspoons of sugar. And if you have a kid that has, you know, say, five cans of soda per day, it's like fifty teaspoons of sugar. And you hear the term type two diabetes, right?
So type two diabetes Which means y you know your your your uh your your blood your bl you can produce blood sugar, but there's a resistance. That used to be called adult onset diabetes because only adults got it.
Now children get type two diabetes from the food and the obesity epidemic.
Now and speaking of the sodas, you now have the USDA approving states that want to ban soda and energy drinks from food stamps. I mean, it is SNAP is the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. nutrition is in there. There is nothing nutritious about sodas. And so I'm a big I'm a big fan of this.
It is one of the most popular things that are bought with Snap. And it will save they say it'll save a uh it'll save um money in taxpayer spending, but that's not the point. The point is, is that we should be encouraging healthy choices with SNAP.
So I I think I think we see the left push back on this just because you know and you've got the beverage lobby, which is pushing back on it already. Oh, heck yeah. Um, you know, you you hear the word snap in the word That starts with N, nutrition.
Okay? That should be, it's to help people who can't afford food, and it's coming from taxpayers.
Okay, great. But You know, we're gonna allow people that are in need of nutrition to To consume stuff that is the antithesis of nutrition.
So I agree with this 100%. And I think we have to create some momentum where we're helping not just people in need, but just society as a whole, to start getting back to nutritious eating, to really advocating for exercise. That's how I start my day every day. It's great for the body, it's great for the mind. And it's all about making America healthy again, right?
Maha.
Yeah. How long do you think it takes for us to start to see some kind of um progress. I don't expect us to solve the autism problem in five years. I don't see that happening. I think that's going to take maybe decades to figure it out.
It took us decades to get here. But how long do you think before we start to see maybe some positives from this Maha movement? I think it's going to take a few years. Like remember when the word finally came out that, hey, smoking is bad for you? And you don't really see nearly as many people smoking cigarettes anymore.
So that was a big, major initiative that penetrated the consciousness of people. And that's what this is all about. We have to penetrate people's minds with what nutrition is about, the data on disease, the data on health and what exercise does for us, what eating like real healthy food does for us. It's really like getting a big bullhorn out there and pumping this positive message into society's minds instead of negative messages. I still know that what I just had, what I had for breakfast isn't good for me, but I had it anyway.
Uh-oh, uh-oh. You worked out. I did not.
So there it is.
Well, I'm going to get you there, Mary. Are you? Thank you. Thank you. And if I get to speak with you again, we can talk about some of these health apps, especially the mental health apps, because we didn't even get to really talk about mental health because I do think that there is just a.
Disease that is sweeping the nation. Everybody under the age of 45 has anxiety. I'm riddled with anxiety and depression and everything else. And I was like, if we used to call that, you know, put your helmet on. It's tough out there.
My mother would be like, oh, well, get out there and deal with it. And I think that that's a whole nother epidemic. And we don't have time to talk about it, though.
So we'll have to have you back next time I'm on. Dr. Tom Kirsting, thank you so much for joining me. Find him on X at Tom Kirsting with a G on the end of it spelled with a K. Thank you for joining me.
All right. Thanks, Mary. Have a great weekend. Thank you. So much going on out there with mental health that I want to talk to you about it.
866-408-7669. Mental and physical health. What's coming up next on the Brian Kilmead show? If you're interested in it, Brian's talking about it. You're with Brian Kilmead.
Here are just some of the alarming findings, and they really are alarming, unbelievable, terrible. More than 40% of American children now have at least one chronic health condition. Since the 1970s rates of childhood cancer have soared in many cases by nearly 50%, 5-0, 50%. In the 1960s, less than 5% of the children were obese.
Now, over 20% are obese. President Trump at the White House yesterday with this release of the Maha Report, and good for them getting it done so quickly. I have a lot of respect for them for being able to do that. Everything they come with, is it going to be put into action? No.
And I do. Do you think that what they're doing is going through this and they're trying to look at the studies and say, maybe we need to look at some of them, for instance, vaccines. RFK Jr., the left's like, oh, he's anti-vax, he's anti-vax. And he's saying, no, I'm not. My kids are vaccinated, but I'm a big fan of looking at studies and seeing if these vaccines.
Are safe? How are the studies done? And is this something that we need to pump into our kids or into ourselves? 866-408-7669. Actually, I want to go to Cut Eight.
This is RFK Jr. at the White House talking about what this report is. At its core, this report is a call to action for common sense. We've relied too much on conflicted research, ignored common sense. or what would some would call mother's intuition.
It's common sense that ultra-processed, nutrient-poor food contributes to chronic disease. It's common sense that excessive screen time and isolation lead to anxiety and depression, especially in children. It's common sense that exercise and healthy food should come before prescriptions and surgery. It's common sense that not all calories are equal in nutritional value. It's common sense that over-medicating kids is dangerous.
It's common sense that we can celebrate the innovations of modern life. While also demanding fearless inquiry into ameliorating the negative effects of medication. agriculture and environmental practices. And that's what a lot of the president's agenda is on all fronts, is just common sense. And I kind of want to bring in another part of this, so bear with me, and I'll get to your calls: 866-408-7669.
Is the other people at that table, Dr. Morty McCary, remember him? You also have Jay Bhattacharya and Vinay Prasad. They were all doctors who were. We were ridiculed during COVID because they questioned lockdowns.
They questioned the. Whether the scientific whether whether it was smart to lock down, and then some of them I know, Dr. Martin McCary, because I interviewed him about this during COVID, about Sweden, and Sweden wasn't locking down. The only people who were being locked down were the older people. They were the ones who were being locked down.
And what they eventually developed was herd immunity in Sweden because the rest of the population was not locked down. And they weren't insisting that everyone get the vaccine either. And so he brought those things up, and for that, he was ridiculed. Same thing with the other doctors as well. They questioned shutting down the schools forever and the vaccine mandates.
And they were ridiculed, as a lot of us were. And now they are not only vindicated, but now they're sitting at the table with President Trump and they're there making their voices heard. And along those lines, I want to talk to you, I want to add this in here about what happened during COVID and the lockdowns and all of that, and the masks and the jab and all that stuff, because that plays into this. Because we're now finding out that there are. Negative effects to the COVID vaccine.
Now we're starting to find that out. But I just want to ask you about, you know, like I feel I'm owed an apology. I really do. Where's my apology? You know, where's the, well, if you don't get the vaccine, we're going to have to fire you.
Where's the apology for that? Where's the apology for the people who had horrible side effects from it? And we know someone, we couldn't believe it. We found out she was in the hospital and we're like, what? Myocarditis, the whole bit.
This woman was a marathon runner, incredible athlete, flat on her back in her 30s.
So, I want to talk about all of this together. 866-408-7669 is my number. And you can also reach out to me on X at Mary Walter Radio, and I'll try to get to those as well. Let's go to Anton in Orlando, Florida, listening on WDBO. Anton, welcome.
You're on the Brian Kilmead Show. Hi. Hi, thank you for welcoming, and thank you for what you do and taking over for Brian Keel Meet for just a little while. I really think that the epidemic for autism may not fully be what it is. I what I'm thinking is we have such a large spectrum now of autism.
So you can be on the low end of it, you can be on the high end of it, you can be uh still work and still have it.
So I think there's so many spectrums now that is out there that that is why the numbers of autism went up. I think now we look and say, okay, if like m my son is is low on the spectrum, but he is on the spectrum.
So now that's a number. There's a there's one more person now, and but he's low. But he's still autistic.
So I wonder if that's some of these numbers.
Some of these numbers are just low. Um High opportunity to work and everything else, but still on the spectrum. Does that make sense?
Well, yes, as Dr. Kirsting said, he said the kid that we used to just call weird back in the day.
Now we would call autistic and pump them full of drugs. And I wonder if. If maybe the drugs to help them concentrate and that kind of thing is not the answer. Because you have to learn how to function in society. You know, the weird kids, the one that hyperactive kid.
What happened to him back in the day? They were told to sit down, shut up, and do your work, and they had to learn how to control it. And in my world, I realize that's hard, but it's probably better than putting them on drugs. For me personally, like, if that was my kid, I'd be like, no, this kid's gonna learn how to handle this, and this kid's gonna learn how to sit down, shut up, and do his work. And hopefully, you know, he'll learn how to Function when he gets older.
How about you? How do you feel about that, having a son like that?
Well, I can agree with you on this because I'm dyslexic myself. I ADD, ATHD. I was adopted from Romania, this whole thing.
So I have to learn back then, we didn't have doctors that knew all about all this stuff and how to resolve it. And yes, they first started with me with Riddlin and all this other stuff. And then as I started growing up myself, I went away from it. And I started using tools such as note writing, such as having people read for me to make sure that I understand what it is that I'm reading and whatever else.
So I've used those type of tools.
So I think there has to be ways of being able to use natural tools To assist. And that's what I do with my son. My son and I, we talk about when he's frustrated about X, Y, and Z or can't express X, Y, and Z. We're like, okay, let's take a deep breath. Let's figure out how do we express that?
What is it that we're actually feeling? Oh, that's what it is.
So I think we need to look not just into medication, but natural ways of being able to work with the disability we have. That's what I've done. No, yeah, no, exactly. Anton, thank you for sharing your story. I totally totally appreciate that, and thank you for listening to the Brian Kilmead show.
I got a text from my friend. He said, Drinking from the hose. Yep, we did this. We grew up in the same area. He said, The hose was connected to the well, which was on the other side of the property from the septic tank.
Yes, it was septic field. He said, We ate spam and Pop-Tarts, sugar pops, Fig Newtons, non-organic eggs.
Well, actually, the eggs we had were organic, I think, because we used to get them from the farm down the street. And I don't think that the farmer down the street was spraying them with stuff. And he said, We were not obese, but we drove stick-shift cars, and tons of kids played sports, rode bikes, and played outdoors until dark. Yeah, and maybe it's time to get back to some of this. I also want to throw in here that a survey found that one in four Americans, you know, they say they believe our nation's physical health system deserves an F grade.
And mental health, they also say 25% agree with that and say the nation's mental health well-being is also flunking. People don't. Don't trust pharmaceutical companies anymore. Of course, they don't. More people now are looking into holistic medicines.
I'm fine with that. I think if I can find something that's not a drug, I'll do that. I'm all in on that.
So I think the pendulum is starting to swing somewhat. When it comes to all of this with our health system, et cetera. Let's quickly get to Mike from New Jersey, who's listening on WABC out of New York. Mike, welcome. You're on the Brian Kilmey Chow.
Hi. Hi, doing a great job today. Hey, I just wanted to talk about computers and safety with children. I had a background. I'm retired.
But I would go to places and people would tell me all the great things they do to protect their kids, like have them in the den when they're on their phone, whatever. The problem is when they go to sleepovers. The problem is when one of their friends doesn't have any of those rules, And when they go to their house, they're getting exposed to all that stuff. The other thing is Snapchat. Snapchat doesn't cost anything to be a part of.
And the big thing on that is that stuff is uh deleted within thirty seconds. If you don't think there's some servers that are not in our country, that are containing people's um very uh explicit stuff I got news for you. Absolutely. But, you know, Mike, and we've got to make it short and sweet here, but thank you so much. Here's the thing: yeah, when you go to somebody else's, when we were kids, we'd go to their house and they'd have stuff, and I'd come home and I'd be like, oh, I really want this game, or whatever it happened to be.
And my parents are like, well, put it on your birthday list or put it on your Christmas list. And maybe Santa will bring it to you. Or maybe you'll get that present for your birthday. That was it.
So parents need to say no. We had a c we had a family in town that didn't have a our neighborhood down the street from us didn't have a T V. And their kids would wander over and want to watch TV. And my mother would be like, Do your parents know you're watching TV? And they're like, No.
And, you know, that was the end of it. But. I think parents need to, you know, learn to say no sometimes. Kids are going to see things that other kids have that they want, and you can't always have it. All right, a lot more coming up.
Lots of calls. 866-408-7669 on the Brian Kilmead Show. There's no topic he won't touch, and there's no opinion he won't engage. One of the great joys of my life. Call in with yours at 866-408-7669.
It's the Bryan Kill Meet Show. Radio that makes you think. This is the Brian Kill Me Show. I think it's a moral failing if we don't address this, but it's definitely a financial failing as well. 50% of children are on Medicaid or on on the CHIP program.
It is an obligation we all have to address this reality. As you know, the cost of Medicaid has gone up 50% in five years. I thank you very much for having the bravery to commission this report. That's Dr. Oz at the White House yesterday, as well with this release of the Maha Report.
I was just during the break, I was saying to Eric and Pete here, I was just like, Did you see this video? There's a guy in Boston who got in an accident with someone else.
So his response was to get out of his car with an axe and to just start. Attacking this guy's car and destroying the car.
So the other guy, the other driver's in the car, and this guy gets out and just starts a hatchet, not an axe. I guess it's a smaller handle. But he's breaking the windows and the windshield and absolutely melting down because he got in an accident. And he was apparently chasing someone with his car at a high rate of speed, causing the other person to crash.
So apparently he was very angry at this person. But we didn't really get into it with Dr. Kirsting. But the mental health epidemic in this country, am I the only one who sees these people who are wildly unhinged? They're crazy.
They're screaming in airports and Walmart and they're throwing their bodies on the ground and hitting people. What happened? I've never acted that way in my entire life. And when I was a child and I acted that way, my mother would grab me by the back of the arm where it really hurts and she'd pinch it and she'd go, do it again. And I'm taking you outside.
We're like, okay. And that was the end of it. What is happening? Let's go to Brooklyn. Dolores listening on WABC in New York.
Welcome to the Brian Kilmead Show. Hello. Yes, thank you for um Having me open. I just was listening to you. And I'm 81 years old.
My children are in their 50s. And when my I was pregnant with my first child, I was given a book by a coworker. How to raise healthy children? I forget the the author's name. Page one.
Never introduce sugar to your infant. It's addictive. And I I read that book and I followed through with healthy eating. And it was a struggle because. People would send their They're they're Grade school.
Children to school with snacks of potato chips and sugary cookies. and things like that. And I would send them carrots and, um Sliced apple. And um they're in their fifties now, as I said, and they've never had cavities and they have two healthy adults. Never been overweight.
And I've never seen s I worked I just retired from working in a all girls' high school. And I just remember being in the cafeteria and seeing the majority of the girls are overweight. Oh, yeah. Yeah, absolutely. This Gen Z is definitely overweight.
Absolutely, 100%. And they just say, I'm thick, no big deal. But, Dolores, I got news for you. Your kids traded those carrots and apples or apples. Try to trade them anyway for a Yodel or a ring ding or something here or there along the line.
Because I know someone who did this with their kids, and they're like, Yeah, my kids totally eating sugar when they go to their friend's house and when they're at school and at the cafeteria. But all that being said, kudos to you. I give you a lot of credit. It's a hard thing to do. Parenting is hard enough, and you held the line.
I have respect for that, Dolores. Thank you so much for joining me on the Brian Kilmead show. How many parents can do that? It's not easy. Elaine in Wayne, New Jersey.
You're on the Brian Kilmead Show. Welcome. Yes, nobody knows this, but the smart meters that are being forced on homeowners for kickbacks, they cause autism, hyperactivity, and changes in children's behavior.
Well, I'm sure that that's something that they can look into, but I don't know that that's a direct link. Listen, I is there something out there with like, you know, they tell you don't live under power lines. Maybe, you know, I wouldn't want to live under a power line. I can kind of see where, you know, maybe it's a little bit too much, too close. But that's something that can be investigated.
Let's head to Mississippi. I want to get as many calls in here as I can. Darla, welcome. Hey, I want to thank you so much for bringing attention to this. It's so wonderful to hear the conversation on mainstream media about the Maha movement.
I'm with the Maha Moms of Mississippi, and we fought really hard to get religious exemptions in our state for vaccines and our children that have to go to school. And we finally got that after suing the state of Mississippi, thanks to Robert Kennedy Jr. and all of his hard work and all the amazing people at ICAN. And it's just wonderful hearing it finally getting the validation. You mentioned the COVID shots earlier and how everyone was required to get those to work, to go to school, to go out to eat at a restaurant.
It's just insanity. And I'm glad to finally have it come to light and have the validation. And I'm here for it. I'm so excited about what RFK Jr. is going to do.
I have to say, kudos to the applause, kudos to the maha moms across the country. I will say, and I have to let you go because we're up against the clock here, Darla, but thank you. I was skeptical about the whole Maha thing. Like, what's going on here? Yeah.
But since it started, I've really started to look, especially about microplastics. We have a protein drink that we love. We absolutely love it. It's fantastic. It tastes just like chocolate milk.
Love it. Pour it over some cold, you know, or some ice. It's fantastic. And then Consumer Reports came out rating protein drinks. And they rated this one for taste.
It's like the best. It's fantastic. But. It's the highest in microplastics. I'm like, oh, and they say everybody has enough microplastics, like about a tablespoon of microplastics in their brains.
It's all through our body. I don't know how you get out. I don't know if we can get it out of our bodies. I have no idea. But now I'm concerned.
Like, now that I'm finding out more about this, and I do credit Maha, I do credit Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and I do credit the Maha Moms for bringing this to light. I think that all this is important. And this is a kid who grew up, like I said, drinking well water in New Jersey, eating Pop-Tarts and drinking tang, you know, when we were little. And we didn't really even get to the whole COVID shot thing.
And whether you feel vindicated when you see some of those doctors who said, you know what? They questioned it and they were shut down for questioning it. And now they're sitting at the table with Donald Trump in the White House. I'm Mary Walter. You're listening to The Brian Kilmeat Show.
From the Fox News Radio Studios in Midtown Manhattan, it's the fastest growing radio talk show. Brian Kilmead. Welcome to the Brian Kilmead Show. Hope everyone's having a wonderful day. Let's talk some news, shall we?
There's so much going on. There is just so much going on in the news every day. It's like drinking from a fire hose. It just doesn't seem to stop. And I don't know if that's just because of Trump or if it's just because of our news cycles.
They're just crazy. But you know who does know? Liz Peak. She's a Fox News contributor, columnist for FoxNews.com. And also For the Hill, you can follow her on the X at LizPeak with two E's, P-E-E-A-K.
She's also one of my favorite guests. Liz, thank you for joining me. Hi, Mary. I'm so glad to be with you. Thanks.
There's so much, as I said, so much to talk about, and I know you can pretty much handle everything.
So, can we talk about the robed resistance? These judges that object and tried to stop nationwide injunction on anything Donald Trump wants to do, anything this administration wants to do, they pretty much know that it's going to be slowed down. They're going to have to get it all the way to the Supreme Court, and then we see where they land. And the latest is a judge in Boston, a federal judge, who objected to DHS deporting illegal immigrants. There were eight of them from Mexico, Cuba, Laos, Burma, and Vietnam.
And the countries wouldn't accept them, so they sent them to South Sudan, which is apparently taking in anybody. They included five convicted murderers, one convicted robber, one convicted child sex predator, and one convicted rapist. And this judge says, and one of them had a final deportation order. All of them had final deportation orders. One of them dated back to 1999 and was still here.
And this judge says, No, you violated a preliminary injunction that he had issued in April, and he didn't give that the administration didn't give them enough time to object to their deportation, so he wants them brought back. I'm not a judge, but the I'm not a judge, but this seems insane, Liz. It seems insane because, once again, it seems like the weight of the judiciary is coming down not on protecting the citizens of our country, but protecting the criminals who are assaulting the citizens of our country. And it does seem completely bonkers. But it is depressing that absolutely everything the Trump administration tries to do, you have a judge somewhere in some court that can raise his hand and say no.
And I think Republicans are starting to challenge this. I don't know how far that challenge will get, Mary. But it is kind of absurd that the executive branch suddenly seems to have lost all its power because, yeah, you have the judiciary side coming in on it all the time. In this case, Since these guys all had deportation notices, A final deportation notices, is my understanding. I don't really understand the grounds for objecting to it.
I mean, it is certainly unorthodox to send these guys to South Sudan. I don't know the legality of that, whether that is totally up to ICE or the Department of Justice to figure out what their destination should be. But deportation seems like a pretty obvious decision when they are convicted of felonies. And by the way, the American people are on board with this. I mean, for sure, the liberal media has chipped away at the support for Trump's immigration program, the deportations, and so forth.
They've hailed as heroes, really, people who are really not good people, like Obrego Garcia, the fellow who was. Sent back to El Salvador. And the reason he didn't want to go back to El Salvador is that he felt his life was in danger there because rival gangs didn't like his gang, MS 13. At the same time, however, you know, Democrats and Garcia are telling us, no, no, I was never a member of a gang. That is literally the fact that that's how he pled his case some time ago.
But now all of a sudden he's not a member of that gang and he is a serial wife beater. I mean, for his wife to have asked for an order of protection against him twice, not once, but twice, that takes a lot of guts, frankly. And it must have been pretty bad for her to do that, to reach out to the authorities for protection. And, oh, by the way, he was found with a carload of people that looked very much like trafficking illegal immigrants into the country. But because it was under Joe Biden, no one bothered to really investigate that.
So not a good person. And that is sort of the poster child for objecting Democrats. That's objecting to deportation. These guys, I don't really think anyone's going to be flying to South Sudan to have a margarita with any of these people to plead their case or try and free them. These are bad guys, and everybody knows it.
So, you know, the country's going to be pretty on board with this. I think one of the polls early on was like 85% of the country thought that getting rid of all. convicted felons or convicted criminals. It was a perfectly reasonable thing to do. As I say, I'm sure the liberal media's attention to this has whittled that down.
But there's no question that most people think, great, we don't have to pay for them. If they're in jail in South Sudan, hopefully that country is picking up the tab for keeping these people locked up. Why should we? I'm sure we have some deal with South Sudan and we're like giving them $1,000 per court illegal that we send there. But here's the thing is, he ruled back in April that the Trump administration couldn't deport them because they had to ha go through a reasonable few year interview, despite having final deportation orders.
And the guy from 1999 had more than enough time, I would think. Yeah, yeah, I don't understand what the judge was thinking. It's just a stalling mechanism, you know. I mean, they feel like the more they can stall and obstruct, it isn't really a legal case, I suspect, that he's arguing here. Again, if they have received a final deportation notice, presumably they have had due process.
After that, there is no due process. That is what Tom Holman has said. That's what other people have said in the Department of Justice.
So I don't know what the legality is here. Again, it's just throwing gum in the works. You know, the more that they can gum up the wheels of justice, the turn, the Trump agenda, doesn't matter how they do it, they don't care. They don't care. And I think some of this stuff's going to come back to haunt them, I think, in the midterm elections.
I certainly hope so. To have them parading around, there's a lot of issues that Democrats are on the wrong side of Scott Jennings on CNN yesterday. Mm-hmm. I thought was so funny. He was talking about one of these issues where Democrats got it wrong.
And he said something to the effect of: you'd think by sheer luck they would land on the right side of an issue at some point. That completely encapsulates my view. It's like, can't they ever side with the American people? Is this, you know, let's talk about school choice. They're on the wrong side of that.
Open borders, they're on the wrong side of that. All these deportations. You can, I mean, really, transgender, biological men and women's sports. There are a lot of Democrats still championing that. How can you do that when everybody agrees it's absurd?
So it is a theater of the absurd, and these guys are. Willingly, the most active participants. And, you know, God bless them. I hope they stay with it, honestly. Yes, I do hope so.
What I want to get to before I run out of time here, the Supreme Court yesterday ruled against a religious school, St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School in Oklahoma City. They wanted to qualify for vouchers. They thought that they should be able to receive the vouchers, public funds. And so it goes to the Supreme Court.
Amy Coney Barrett recuses herself from this. I don't know why. And it winds up in a 4-4 vote.
So a tie goes back to the lower court, which means that they are barred from receiving any kind of public funding. They would have been the state's first religious charter school, and now that's not happening. What is up with Amy Coney Barrett?
Well, she recused herself because she was on Notre Dame's I'm not some panel having to do with these kinds of decisions.
So I don't think that recusal was totally aimless or unwarranted. I think probably she was right to do it. I'm disappointed in this because school choice Is unbelievably important. It is, again, something that people, most Americans, think is valid and real and is opposed only by the teachers' unions and the Democrats who get millions and tens of millions of dollars from the teachers' unions every cycle. I say it's important because, number one, you know, an awful lot of kids are trapped in underperforming schools and they simply don't learn to read or write or do math.
I mean, that's just a fact. And nobody cares. Democrats, generation after generation, are willing to graduate kids, mostly minority kids, kids they're supposed to be caring about, from schools. And in some schools, where 99% do not learn grade-level reading or math, schools in Illinois, schools in Baltimore, et cetera.
So school choice is like a lifeline for these kids. And by the way, it is in my hometown of New York, which is why the teachers' unions adamantly refuse to expand it because they know the wait list. Not long ago was over 50,000 families. People want into these schools. And to your point, one of the recipient groups of school choice vouchers and other programs are the religious schools.
And guess what? Kids that grew up going to Catholic parochial schools, they learned something. They did graduate from high school. They did often go to college. They were not stuck in these failing schools.
So I'm disappointed by this decision, but here's the good news. School Choice is expanding state by state. Absolutely without stopping. And I can't tell you the number of states right now, but every year, another one or two. Adopt some sort of program that allows kids to go outside the public school.
Arena and access either private schools or parochial schools, some other kind of schooling, and get vouchers to allow them to do that. It is so important for our country, Mary. We have generations of kids who are, frankly, ignorant. They're not well educated. We're not going to be able to compete as a country if our kids are ignorant and uncompetitive.
And that's kind of where we are. Yeah, no, I agree. And hopefully, I'll be dead by the time they're in power.
So there's always a silver lining somewhere. One last thing on education. You know, Donald Trump is trying to get rid of the Department of Education. We functioned fine without it before we had the Department of Education that Jimmy Carter brought in.
So we were okay. And I will argue that kids got a better education before we had it. But a federal judge in Massachusetts, again, part of the rogue to resistance, issued an injunction yesterday that blocks the Trump administration from dismantling the Department of Education and said that they also, not only that, but everyone who's been laid off has to be rehired. Yeah. Again, to me, I don't understand how federal judges have this authority.
They are not. More powerful than the Department of Education, the person who's running it, and the president, et cetera. But yet, one lone judge in Massachusetts says you've got to rehire everybody. Yeah. Again, you know, it's just gumming up the works.
And they know in making that decision that it'll be appealed to a higher court. And of course it will be. This is a signature ambition of this administration. And I agree with you 100%. I'm not sure the Department of Education has done anything to further the education of kids.
And look at the results. I mean, they're just awful. An awful lot of money.
Now, I was going to say an awful lot of money is going to funding DOE, the Department of Education projects, as opposed to educating our children. What the teachers' unions would say is it's never enough money. We never have enough money, even though kids in Illinois schools and New York schools were spending the equivalent of $30,000 per student.
So you just have to ask yourself, why not just shut down all of our public education, take the money, let kids' parents use this money to go to whatever school they want to and start all over again? But the answer is at least we can get rid of one giant other bureaucracy. And this isn't by any means the most expensive bureaucracy in our system, but nonetheless, it is expensive enough. Let's get rid of it and see if the states can't do a better job. Because guess what?
They are doing a better job than the federal government in coming up with new ideas about educating kids. The stumbling block. Think, Mary, think about. what we should be able to do and achieve with all the technology that's out there right now, with AI, et cetera, why aren't we adopting Technology and artificial intelligence learning and stuff in schools, and there's one answer: teachers' unions. They don't want any kind of Improvement or productivity enhancing use of technology, because that would diminish their role, and that they cannot accept.
They cannot accept better education for the kids. Look, it's not even the union's fault. That's their job. That's Randy Weingarten's job, protect the teachers. argue for as much money as possible.
It is the legislators, it is the mayors and the people who enable them who are just so reprehensible and honestly hypocritical. They pretend to care about poor kids and minorities. They don't. Exactly. And that's part of, I think, the good thing about getting rid of the Department of Education is that home rule issue.
You know, that issue of, okay, you get to decide, you know, what's going to be happening in those classrooms. Yes, there's national standards that have to be met. But there's a lot around that that I think infects our children with the woke mind virus. This whole, you know, the LGBTQ flag in the front of the room or a BLM flag and all that kind of stuff. You can then have a voice and you can say, no, not in our school district, or we're going to do this or we're not going to do that.
And the good thing about that, too, is I think it might hopefully get parents more involved, which we need. We need parents far more involved in their children's education than they currently are. And I think that that's probably a a good thing. Yeah, I agree 100%. And of course, that was one of the few benefits of COVID, the two years, really year and a half when schools were shut down or partly shut down, and there was a lot of learning online.
And parents got involved in that. They began to see what their kids are being taught, and they were appalled.
So you've had a sort of secondary, we had a big wave of protest against the teachers' unions, if you remember, back in, I'm thinking the 90s. When some famous books and movies came out showing this sort of terrible cosseting of the teachers' unions, the protection of the so-called rubber rooms, I think, where people never got fired, et cetera. But we've had a resurgence of that now as parents kind of looked in. And now it's not so much just about incompetent teaching, it's also about woke teaching and kids learning stuff. But you know, anyone who's interested should go and look at the platform of the teachers' unions and the kind of political agitating they do.
It is unbelievably left-wing and very out of touch with America. Yes, absolutely. We've got to go. We're up against the clock. Liz, fantastic conversation.
As always, thank you so much for joining me here on the Brian Kilmead Show. Have a great day. Thank you for having me. You too. Bye-bye.

Breaking news, unique opinions. Hear it all on the Brian Kill Me Show. Mary Walter in for Brian Kilmead 866-408-7669 is my number, or you can reach out to me on X at Mary Walter Radio. Just tag me in a post or whatever you want to say. If you can't call in, there's no S in that.
You want to talk about? Let's talk about states banning soda, energy drinks, candy from food stamps. Is that a good idea? Do you agree with that? I kind of like it.
What about the road resistance? We were just talking to Liz Peake about these judges that are blocking everything that Donald Trump wants to do, including sending these. Illegals who were in our country who were raping and murdering and assaulting children. Should religious schools be allowed to get. The vouchers, right?
Should your tax money go to that? I kind of don't have a problem with it as long as they meet the religious, like, as long as they meet the school. standards, like what you have to to get, you know, the basics, as long as they do that. And so much more. Do you feel you know, we were talking about the Maha movement, vaccines and the changes to maybe the food pyramid, et cetera?
Autism diagnoses? All coming up, and I'll get you your calls 866-408-7669 on the Brian Killmeat Show. The fastest three hours in radio. You're with Brian Kilmead. We are on track to sign multiples of snap waivers to get junk food and sugary drinks out of our food stamp system.
And I am so proud. I am so proud to announce that on Monday, I was in Nebraska with Governor Pillan, where we signed the first one. An hour ago, I signed the second one for Governor Braun in Indiana. He may not even know that. I've got it right here, sir.
I also signed the third one, Governor Kim Reynolds of Iowa, about an hour ago. Uh With a half a dozen more coming down the line. That right there, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins yesterday at the White House, along with President Trump and the head of the Maha Movement. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., we've been talking about that and talking about.
the report from the Maha Commission, and they put out a report, and now they've um they're going to have a hundred days that they're going to try to make some of these changes in. And one of the things is states allowing states to say we're not going to allow people in our state who receive snap Quote, food stamps, colloquially known as food stamps, we're not going to allow them to buy sugary sodas and energy drinks. And some states are saying candy is not going to be allowed. I've long said that that should have been done ages ago. I really think that that's something that's super important.
It's supposed to be the what is it? The supplemental nutrition. Program. assistance program, that's the SNAP.
So why not? We are also talking about it with vaccines. The report targets big pharma, big food, and the federal medical bureaucracy for colluding in a system that drug poisoned and stressed children into chronic illness. And it calls for sweeping reform, including the food system overhaul. The pyramid, the food pyramid.
Have you seen what it looks like lately? It's ridiculous. Supposed to have like seven servings of cereal or some such nonsense. Also, chemical exposure limits and a rollback of over-prescription and vaccine excess. And I personally thought that it was fantastic to see Dr.
Marty McCary, Dr. Bacharia, and others who were there who were. Really silenced and shamed and bullied during COVID for actually questioning some of the restrictions. Also talking about we were just speaking With Liz Peake about the robed resistance and these federal judges with all of these injunctions and saying, you can't do this. You have to, you know, bring these people back from these foreign countries, and you have to do this, and you have to do that.
And Then no. I don't know how we deal with it, but if you want to talk about that, we can do that as well.
So, a whole lot going on here on the Brian Killmee Show, by the way. I'm Mary Walter. Don't forget to check out my podcast. It's Mary Walter Radio. On Tuesday nights, this past Tuesday's guest was insane.
He's then Vice President Biden's stenographer.
So, he basically recorded. wrote everything out. And um he He was talking. He He has a book out, Joe. You can find him everywhere, Joe Unauthorized.
And he has several books out that you can read. But check out the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Spreaker. It's also available on YouTube and on Getter if you click the live tabs there. And it's Mary Walter Radio Everywhere You go. All right, let's head to Oklahoma.
Alan, welcome. You're on the Brian Kill Meet Show. Hello, Alan. Hi, Mary, and thank you for taking my call. Sure.
My daughter was killed by the Pfizer mRNA COVID injection. She died on November 9th, 2022. And we have been fighting. Uh for justice. and to get the word out.
that these injections are not safe. They are far from effective And um That's basically our activism right now. And you had a caller earlier that said that she was excited that this is getting out more on mainstream media. And I kinda I second that. I I thank you so much for what you're doing and for taking my call.
And really, this is among the first time that I've been able to at least tell my story, my daughter's death. anywhere near mainstream media. I have been absolutely silenced. My wife and I have been fighting. Um for y for almost three years now.
Let me ask you some questions because we do have a lot of calls to get to.
So I just want to first of all, I'm very, very sorry for your loss. I can't even imagine what that is like.
So I'm not going to pretend to, and all I can say is I'm sorry for that, and I do hurt for you. It's horrible to lose a child. But how do you know it was the COVID vaccine?
Well, the she actually had a later she was determined that she was diagnosed with what they call vaccine induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia. or VITT. Which is a known reaction. Specifically from the Pfizer vaccine. It took us I think it's almost nine months.
to get her autopsy results back. Of course, her autopsy results. say cause of death is unknown, but it does list a lot of the conditions that she had. She had clots all throughout her entire body. She had multiple embolisms and edema.
It actually basically just destroyed her little body. One of the ways that we do know, and that we are for sure, is that the day that she got her first injection, On July 20th, she got it as part of an annual checkup. And she got blood work done. On that day and uh shows absolutely no signs. She was one hundred percent healthy.
She had none of the conditions that ended up taking her life. Yeah. And I wish I had more time for you. We know someone who is a similar situation fighting with just all of these cascade of illnesses. Thank you, Alan.
And I wish you the best. I really, truly do, because I think we will find out the truth one way or the other. We're going to find out the truth somewhere down the line. And I think the Maha movement is going to help get towards that. Also, Ron Johnson is the chair of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations.
And he has been investigating the safety and efficacy of the vaccines. And earlier this year, he subpoenaed HHS records relating to the safety data and the communications about the pandemic. He put out a report, it's 55 pages. It was reviewed by Fox News Digital. And it revealed that Biden administration officials, quote, withheld crucial health information from the subcommittee and the public.
And he also has sent more than 70 oversight letters, he said, have either been completely ignored or inadequately addressed. And the reports. Report highlights. The records that Johnson has obtained according from a subpoena. And he specifically, in the report, focuses on HHS awareness of and responses to cases of myocarditis, which is heart inflammation.
We all know that now, following COVID-19 vaccination. And he says the records he obtained, quote, contain evidence of the Biden administration's efforts to downplay and delay warning the public about the risks of myocarditis associated with the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. I think we're all owed a huge apology. I did not get vaccinated, and I was shunned by certain family members and not allowed to attend events and this, that, and the other thing because by not being vaccinated, I could fell a water buffalo at 100 yards.
So I think a lot of people deserve. Apologies for what we were put through, people who lost their jobs. People who had side effects from the vaccine. People who were shunned, who were told you can't come in this restaurant, you can't do this, you can't do that. Those are, you know, and just the ridiculousness of it all.
It's kind of like. The purging that we're having now that we all know that President Pudding Pants had mashed potato brains. And now they're all having their come to Jesus moment, and Jake Tapper's running around with the Mia culpa and everything, and I don't buy him for one hot second at all. Uh they need to do the same thing about COVID. that oh, guess what?
The idea of walking into the restaurant with the mask on, but as soon as you sat down you could take the mask off because COVID can't get you when you're sitting down, it can only get you when you're standing up. We were total idiots about that. That was ridiculous. We made it up, and we're super sorry about that. There's a lot of apologies that need to be had.
So, we're going to talk about all of this. More of your calls, 866-408-7669, coming up on the Brian Kilmey Show. It's Brian Killmeade. The talk show that's getting you talking. You're with Brian Kilmead.
Welcome back to the Brian Kill Meet Show. Taking your calls at 866-40-87669. Talking a lot about this Maha Commission report. And, you know, it's also not just your physical health, but it's also your mental health. And people have lost their minds.
People are really crazy angry. They're screaming at people in groceries in public where you never did that before. And I think COVID had a lot to do with this. People forgot how to behave before COVID. And now everybody is running around like I I don't know what.
I just don't. And I see them come and I'm like, I am not engaging you today. Mm-mm. Not your day. Not happening.
And I just walk away. I I see it happening over in that aisle over there, and I'm like, I'm going this way. It's not worth it. I just want to get my stuff. I want to get out of the store and leave without any interactions with these people.
Let's head to Orlando, where it's much warmer than New Jersey. Mike here on the Brian Kilbeach Show. Hi, Mike. Hi, and thank you for taking my call. Sure.
I would like to tell the audience out there: if you want to see the state of our country's health, go to Cable T V and turn on Prices Right reruns with Bob Barker from the nineteen seventies and look at the crowd. And look at Von Barker. And then go to the Jim Carrey guy, I guess, in twenty fourteen. And look at the crowd. And look at him.
Everybody's overweight. Out of shape. It's it's like an epidemic. And I'll tell you something else that's very important. We've been on GMO Food since nineteen ninety two.
Mm-hmm. If we're all eating the same GMO food, We don't have the trace elements from different pockets of farmers around the country where their goods would come to market. You could be getting an apple from Washington. You could be getting an apple from New York if you're in Texas. You don't have that.
You don't have that variety anymore. You're eating GMO food. from corporate farms. And if you're everybody's eating the same thing, what can go through the nation like a bullet? a virus, a germ.
Everybody gets sick.
So Great show. Keep it up. Way to go, RFK Jr. Thank you very much. Thank you.
He's right. I forgot where I was. I was at something recently. I forget what it was. And I was just looking around.
There were a lot of younger people there and a lot of younger women. And I was like, ooh. And you know, they're chilling in their bellies, and I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, honey, put that away. Cover that up. And so I have like this fight going on in my brain.
Like, okay, you want to show your belly because there's a lot of it there to show. You want to show that makes you happy. Like, I don't want to quote unquote body shame anybody, but at the same time. Uh you're healthy now and it's not going to be so healthy in a while. But it's accepted.
You know, there's this fat acceptance, which again, I'm not A hundred percent. I'm on the fence about it. Uh but I do notice that man It is definitely looks a lot different from when we were there. But to be in the interest of full disclosure, I put on a lot of weight right after high school, the end of high school and college, and it really bothered me that everybody expected me to look a certain way.
However, Peer pressure. I got tired of looking the way that I did and I lost the weight.
So there's a lot to be said for it. It goes both ways. Let's quickly go to Oklahoma. James, you're on the Brian Killmead Show. Hi.
Yeah. An egg. Can you hear me? No, I can't hear you at all. Oh, hold on a second.
I'm kidding. Of course, I can hear you. I answered your question. Are you kidding me? No.
No, thanks for taking my call. Sure. And and and kind of the bookend to the whole MRNA shot, I'm wondering about the CARES Act and and the protocol that took care of our loved ones when they were admitted to the hospital. Diagnosed with COVID. and maybe some underlying other health conditions, but the treatment that our loved ones received seemed criminal to me as much as the MRNA.
Uh vaccine. My husband's godfather died alone in the hospital because of COVID. And I don't know if they gave him the vaccine or not. I mean, it didn't really matter. He was very elderly.
He was old. And, you know, he hadn't been healthy leading up to it. But I look at it and I think it killed him. I think COVID in and of itself and the deprivation and the isolation really led to his decline.
Now, it's not like New York and other parts of New Jersey where they put these people in nursing homes and just killed off a whole bunch of them. You know, it's not like that. He was in the hospital. But. Yeah, I think there was a lot of damage done.
And isn't isn't um Cuomo being being investigated because of this? I I read that the other day. I I read that uh the other day on one of my favorite sites, so um but You know, I just wa I just watched so long story short, My daughter's mama was remarried, and the guy was forty nine. They just got back from Branson, Missouri, got back, felt bad, got admitted to the hospital. They flew him from Oklahoma City or Tulsa to Kansas.
It was supposed to put 'em on an Echo ECMO machine, but She just watched him language, you know, and limited Visitors and it was a terrible, terrible ordeal. It was. It was a terrible time. And I think, and James, I'm sorry that that happened to you, but thank you for sharing your story. I think a lot of people can relate to it.
This is part of my whole, I need an apology. I feel like I need an apology. Not just from like the media and everything else. I feel I need an apology too from people around me who treated me differently from a job that I think part of one of the reasons they let me go was because they knew I wasn't going to get the vaccine in a couple of months when it was going to be mandated. And so it was just easier to do it the way they did.
I have no proof of that. That's just my feeling. And I. The people who treated us poorly. Those of us meaning the unvexed.
I've never gotten so much as a phone call. I've never, nothing. No, we're just pretending that it didn't happen now. That's what we're doing. We're just pretending.
Not exactly. That just doesn't go rest well with me. Let's head to New Jersey. Sandra, you are on the Brian Kill Me Show. Welcome.
Mary, I can't get over what you're talking about, and I love everything you're saying because I am with you. I never took that vaccination, and I went through a lot of Four years ago, my husband, he's doing great today. He had a liver transplant. And he had to be in the hospital for two point five months And I never took that vaccination. And every day that I go to that hospital, you would get tested right before you went upstairs.
And my husband, they wanted him to get that vaccination. I said, no. And am I glad today that I stuck to my conviction? Because to me, I have a healthy body. I swim.
I do all these wonderful things. I never took a flu shot in my life. I'm going to start with that.
So I'm with you, Mary. And I can't get over that you brought this up and said it. And this is the first time I'm saying it thanks to you. Oh, good. I'm glad.
I'll tell you, I did. I have not gotten the flu shot. I try not to go out in public on a lot because people in general are out there and I don't necessarily, you never know what you're going to get nowadays.
So I try not to go out in public, period.
So the odds of me getting the flu are pretty slim. And if I get it, oh, well, you know, I'll deal with it. But I did get the shingles vaccine. I will tell you that. And people are like, oh, you're so against vaccines.
Why did you do that? I'm like, the shingles vaccine has been around forever, number one. And getting the shingles, like you could go blind if you get it in your eye. You know, there's other things to, you know, worry about.
So, but I did have a bad reaction to it, and I wound up having to file a virus and everything didn't go well for me. Sandra, thank you so much for joining me. And yeah, I'd love, I wish we had more time because I would love. To know that is if anyone has gotten an apology from anybody because I haven't. Like I said, there's certain suspects that need to apologize, and I have not gotten an apology.
And it really, really eats me. And I think that we're just going to pretend, like I said, that none of this happened. Liz in Florida didn't have a time to get to her, but Liz says she's been a proponent of eating healthy and she pushed it on her family and got good results from it. It's hard. It's a hard thing to do.
I get it. And listen, I've never been a healthy eater. I wasn't brought up that way, but I'm trying now. I'm really trying hard now.
So hopefully, fingers crossed, I'll be successful. I'm Mary Walter, and you are listening to the Brian Kilmead Show. It is time to take the quiz. It's five questions in less than five minutes. We ask people on the streets of New York City to play along.
