On this episode with Neal and Julie, they dive into the ongoing political feud involving Representative Stephanie Mickelson and the controversy surrounding allegations against another political figure. They discuss how the media covers such issues, the implications of playing the "race card" in political discourse, and the way legal and social issues are framed in the public eye.

The conversation also touches on the debate over ivermectin and its past controversies, including how some people sought it out like an underground cure. Neal and Julie share their thoughts on government regulations surrounding medications and how public perception has shifted over time.

Additionally, they explore public sentiment on immigration policies, the balance between enforcing laws and addressing labor shortages, and the broader implications for the political landscape. They also reflect on media bias, selective outrage, and the ways people interpret political statements to fit their own narratives.

From serious political debates to humorous observations about horses and unexpected medical knowledge, Neal and Julie keep the discussion lively, engaging, and thought-provoking.

You want to show us? And I would remind them that the briefing room is part of the people's house. It belongs to the American people. It does not belong to elitist journalists here in Washington, D.C.. Katherine Ma, I was head of NPR. And, you know, she said, we are completely unbiased. Give me a break, lady. I mean, they're crazy far left.

I have pledged to be an exceptional steward of taxpayer dollars. So this shrine to E.J. and climate change will now be shut down for good. Good morning. It's 807 on Newstalk 117. It's The Neil Larson Show, and you can send me a text via the Stones Automotive Group calling text line (208) 542-1079. I cannot even begin to tell you the roster of audio clips that we have for you today.

It's we don't have one knock it out of the park clip, but we've got a bunch of solid doubles and triples. We have, some, some interesting audio from the, the white House. We have some interesting audio from the state legislature that we will get to in these waning days, however many there may be left.

Bill, that Tammy Nichols has put forward that would make ivermectin over-the-counter. I'm like, it already is at Cal Ranch. It's been written in there. Yeah, I'm buying it for my horse. Anyway, but they are, looking at doing that. It is kind of late in the game, but I think maybe it could get passed.

There's also, Dan Foreman has introduced a bill that would fix the vetoed bill. The governor had concerns about, that and, it fix the problem that he talked about when he vetoed the bill. We also have interesting. I I'm going to tell you something. I, I'm watching from afar. It's like, it's like a car crash kind of this feud now that's going on between Representative Stephanie Mickelson and, sorry, I have Chris Coons in my Ryan spoon.

And, I just I have a lot of mixed. It's all kind of ugly, I'll be honest with you. It's all sort of ugly, like, I. You watch it because you can't not watch it. It's like when you're flipping through the TV and Jerry Springer comes on, you're like, this is such trash. And I'm going to turn it in about 15 minutes.

Because you have to see the fights and the chairs being thrown. So if you're not caught up to speed, Ryan Spoon, very conservative guy, libertarian leaning guy and, moved here from California. And honestly, that's sort of been one of the pleasant surprises from California. We thought they were all, you know, tree hugging Libby hippies. And a lot of them are turning out to be these solid, very libertarian conservatives, which are almost more libertarian than the state is at large.

So, which I welcome. I it's it's sort of a welcome unexpected surprise from California. Well, he's gotten involved in politics and noticed that Stephanie Mickelson, of course, in the last couple of legislative sessions, has testified and in with a fairly soft stance or nuanced stance, whatever, when it comes to illegal immigration. And for good reason. I mean, she and her family, they own a very large farming operation.

They have a lot of workers and undoubtedly, some of them, many of them perhaps, or even immigrants. But that's like every other big farm in Idaho. The entire dairy industry is staffed by a high percentage of people who, could be illegal. They all know it now. Their economy relies on it, so they don't want to do anything from a legal standpoint that is too terribly disruptive.

So Donald Trump gets elected in November, gets inaugurated in January, immediately Tom Homan gets to work deporting illegals. Ice very active, very responsive. And Ryan Spoon, this conservative activist from California, decides that, Stephanie Mickelson, who's not a reliable conservative voter, she just isn't. She votes with the Democrats quite often and she's more of a moderate. I don't want to say it in a negative light.

I'm just putting out there how it is. She she does not vote conservative on some issues. She might. But a lot of times she is voting with the Democrats. And this is one issue where she voted very much counter to her party, and she's testified counter to her party. And, so Ryan Spoon calls ice, points them to Stephanie's farming operation.

Ice shows up and they find a guy who's illegal. And this guy spent time in jail. And I think he's through all of his legal stuff. But he allegedly and I'm going to just say allegedly for the heck of it, I think he was, you know, found guilty of it or pled guilty to whatever it was, strangled his wife not to death, but choked her.

And they found methamphetamine in a wallet. Now, what's fascinating about all of this is if you look at any of the statewide or the regional reports on this, that is not a detail that they lead with, because it just it counters the narrative. And if I came to you, let's put all of this aside for a moment, all of the drama aside.

And I said, okay, if there's someone here illegally or they are violent to their spouse and they are they have drugs, they're carrying drugs, should we deport them? 95% of you would say, yeah, we do. We need to send them back to their home country. So they leave that detail after they've already created an emotional environment for you.

The headline starts the emotional, mood when they say that Stephanie Mickelson was targeted. And is that true? Well, it's a half truth, because Ryan Spoon chose her to call ice on while he's not calling ice on everybody. Now, if he was just calling ice on everybody that he knew might have an illegal, which would be just about any dairy in the Magic Valley, but, if he were doing that, then it would be incorrect.

But no, he he's he's very much selected Stephanie Mickelson and called on it. So, yeah, targeting is a word that you can defend being in the headline. However, it's not it's only part of the truth because the whole truth is that yeah, there was an illegal are there more. And that's that's the question. And if you see me speeding and, let's say I'm going down I-15 and I'm going 98 miles an hour and you're like, I think that's that blasted Neil Larsen.

I hate his radio show. He's a moron. Then I'm going to call and, report him because I don't like, did I get targeted? Yeah, but I was going 98. I deserve to get pulled over and ticketed. I, I did the crime. Now it's not a crime. It's a, you know, it's an infraction. But you know what I'm saying?

I did the thing wrong, and I gave them evidence to call. So when you have that situation, I would say. Was Stephanie targeted? Yes. Was it unprovoked? No. In her testimony, when she, she infers that people who who want our immigration laws enforced are there's a racist element there that ups the temperature of the of the dispute doesn't lower it for sure.

And it used to not so much anymore, but it used to put people on the defensive. And now it's just like, yeah, you play the race card for everything and it's now meaningless if you now ruin the card because you're playing the card. So much. So there was that, also the fact that we don't just say, let's uphold the law.

That should just be the standard if you're especially if you're a Republican, let's just uphold the law. Let's pass E-Verify. Let's make sure the people, who are here are legal. And if we need more labor from people who are going to stay out of trouble and not be a burden on, on the system, then let's create that system.

Let's do that. But so we have this and it. Now, what I'm finding is that Representative Mickelson is on a sympathy tour. She's talking to every media outlet that she knows will be friendly to her. That will carry the narrative. And to me, that's a little frustrating because there's some really good questions that ought to be asked. And and these journalists, these people working at these media outlets, they're not they know they have to include the detail that the guy who got caught and deported was a spouse strangler and a drug addict, but they bury it.

They put it near the end. And that ought to be a first question. Okay. The ice did not say, oh, Ryan Spoon doesn't like you. Well, we're just going to snag the first illegal we can find and deport them. It wasn't like that. They investigated. They looked into it. They're like, oh yeah, this guy's got a criminal past.

And yeah, no, he's not here legally. So he is higher on ICE's priority list as he should be, quite frankly. But I will say this, and I said it before, I really don't like the environment where we're all snitching on each other. I don't I don't want a society where we all try to get away with crap, because we want to have laws and we want to strive to obey those laws.

But I 100% promise you we're all we're all in violation of laws every day, every single day. Whether it's tax regulation or business regulation or traffic. The citation, we're all out of compliance because our government regulates a lot of crap and I don't I my goal is not to violate as much as possible, but my goal is to live freely.

And I don't want that society where we're like, you know what? I don't like you politically. So I'm going to call, call the cops on you. But I also want people that don't up the temperature of the conversation either. That's why I don't like all of it. That's why for me, this is like a train wreck. I don't like it when, there's a sympathy tour that goes on and you don't really address the issue that this guy was a violent guy and a drug addict and should be sent back.

She wasn't swatted. There was no doxing. We're misusing those words. Swatting is when the Swat team comes in with their guns drawn. That didn't happen. Doxing is when you give out people's phone numbers and addresses. People who are high profile. That didn't happen. So again, it's it's kind of an overreaction to all of this. And I just okay, I've spent enough time on it.

This is one of those things where in the end, if I were to ask you, how much does this impact your day to day life, you'd probably answer not much at all. So we, Do I have time to go into one other thing really quickly? Yes. Let's do that, Caroline. Leave it. It's a less than a minute long clip.

We'll end the segment with this. We're talking about tariffs. And I had a phone call the other day. You what do you think about Trump and the tariffs and making Canada and Mexico mad and not I'm like I think Trump is just reciprocating. I think Trump is saying how you treat us is what how we'll treat you. And I think that position is hard to argue against.

These nations are not children. They are, if they want to be in the big boy sandbox, what that means is if you throw a massive tariff on something that, we want to export to you, then we get to do the same thing. If you want to export to us. We know it's been unfair for a long time in your favor.

Canada and Mexico. It doesn't mean it's unfair because we're now going to normalize things. Here's the clip. Caroline Levy, look at the unfair trade practices that we have 50% from the European Union on American dairy. You have a 700% tariff from Japan. On American rice, you have a 100% tariff from India on American agricultural products, you have nearly a 300% tariff from Canada on American butter and American cheese.

This makes it virtually impossible for American products to be imported into these markets. And it has put a lot of Americans out of business and out of work over the past several decades. So, it's time for reciprocity, and it's time for a president to take historic change, to do what's right for the American people. And that's going to take.

Okay. Yeah. Truth bomb. That's all she's been doing lately is mic drops and truth bombs to the media. I've got another Caroline Leavitt clip that will play for you later this morning as we get the whole thing rolling today on Newstalk 179.

It's 827 on Newstalk 107. I Neil Eisen and Julie Mason. So, Julie, I am convinced that people hear what they want to hear. They don't hear what I said, they hear what they want to hear, and they throw back what they think. They heard it me as though I actually said it and completely agree that's not true. Like I've already said, I'm not in love with what Ryan Spoon did.

Yeah, I'm. So if you if you're sending a text saying stop defending Ryan Spoon. There was no defense of Ryan Spoon. Yeah. And then if you're sending the text that's all in defense of, Stephanie Mikkelson. Well, do you know why we're talking about this today? Because Stephanie Mikkelson insisted upon going on this this feel bad for me to her.

Yeah, we knew about this last week. We talked about it for what, maybe 4 or 5 minutes. It wasn't very long. And we let it go. We did. It's her that's not letting it go. She's showed back up on Ktvb now. Yeah. So ad making posts on Facebook. Yeah. Yeah. So she's pulling it into the bigger limelight. Absolutely.

So where. Yeah it's just ugly like Julie. It's it is it's it's that it's that episode of Jerry Springer that you want to keep clicking past, but you're okay. I'll just watch it for two minutes. All right. What's going on now? I just saw a chair get thrown like a. It's just I won't spend a lot of time.

Father of who? But I'll go in here pretty quick. So, Okay. Well, Julie, it's been a pretty good week for Caroline Leavitt. I played been a pretty good occupation. Yeah, she's done a great job so far. So she schools. Speaking of immigration yet? And a reporter named Andrew. I don't know who Andrew is. Okay.

But Andrew, he for some reason, he's all hung up on on this. Do process issue with trend arugula. So listen, for this exchange you can get classified by simply having certain symbols in your tattoos. And wearing certain sticker brands that hello is enough to get someone classified as Cuba and sent to El Salvador. That's not true. Actually, Andrew, according to this document, it is no, according to the Department of Homeland Security and the agents, have you talked to the agents who have been putting their lives on the line, to detain these foreign terrorists who have been terrorize our communities?

TDA is a vicious gang that has taken the lives of American women. And our agents on the front lines take up deporting these people with the utmost seriousness. And there is a litany of criteria that they use to ensure that these individuals qualify as foreign terrorists and to ensure to ensure that they qualify for deportation. And the president made it incredibly clear to the American public that there would be a mass deportation campaign of not just foreign terrorist, but also illegal criminal aliens who have been wreaking havoc on American communities.

And shame on you and shame on the mainstream media for trying to cover for these individual who have. This is a vicious gang, Andrew. This is a vicious gang that has taken the lives of American women. The government filed in court, which says, and you said yourself, there are there are eight criteria on that document. They need eight.

And you are questioning the credibility of these agents who are putting their life on the line to protect your life and the life of everybody in this group and everybody across the country. And their credibility should be questioned. They finally have a president who is allowing them, okay. It's so good. Yeah. She doesn't let anybody push her around.

Yeah. She shouldn't. And I'm so proud of her for not I'm proud of her for also keeping a very calm voice. She she does the thing that is almost the magical unicorn when it comes to a female. She can be pretty, she can be calm, and she can be firm. And if a female can accomplish those three things, you can pave your pathway, which is exactly what she's done.

Yeah. Yes, she she's done a great job. Yeah. All right. We're going to take a break. It's 830, right. Nothing. We'll take a break. I'll tell you during it. I don't know why I'm laughing. I'm not laughing at you. Just so you know, it's not. Do not take it personal. It's a meme that I saw that I really can't, can't see.

I can't say anything about. We'll be right back after this. On Newstalk 107908 37 Newstalk 179 Neil Larson and Julie Mason and you, if you'd like to reach us. (208) 542-1079 and, Julie over the counter ivermectin. Queen talk about this for just a moment. All right. Senator Tammy Nichols is putting this bill forward. Basically what this does is this allows for, ivermectin to be able to be sold over-the-counter without a prescription.

Just to give you a little bit of information about this is that, it has been touted as a very safe and effective, anti-parasitic medication. It won the Nobel Prize in 2015, and it was approved by the FDA in 1987. It's been safely used for over 40 years, and it has become one of the most essential and trusted medicines worldwide.

It has, over 4 billion doses administered in just about every other country. You can walk into a pharmacy and pick up this medication. In most other countries, it's available, right now there are 13 states that are looking at passing this for an over-the-counter Arkansas, actually, to sign those into law. Just last week. And, it has this medication has been included on the natural list of essential medicines due to its critical role in treating all sorts of different things.

Okay. So you get the idea. Yeah. Ivermectin. Over-the-counter. What do you have to say? Why not? Why not? I, I think that this is kind of a no brainer for the Idaho Legislature. I if there is an issue, I can't think of one. And I would love to see it presented if there is an issue. I don't know.

I guess we'll see it. I believe it's going to be put on the floor today. Right. It went to print. It went to print. I don't know if the very next step is going to the floor because they may have to debate it further in committee, but, but but just the idea. I don't know what stage it's in for sure, but I, I'm, I'm in favor of it.

It's I won't say it's harmless, but it's very, very well tolerated by those who take it. And we have lots of people who have been trying to get it. We got a text when you mentioned that, you know, we got a text that said, stop talking about ivermectin. I can't get it for my animals because everybody's buying it for themselves.

Yeah. Places like Cal Ranch. Okay. And Sri. Yeah. Right. So I, I just don't understand. Why not? Yeah. Do it. Well, yeah. I think there are over-the-counter medications that carry more potential harm, then ivermectin does. So if I have no problem with this, I support it. I don't know the dance that you have to do with the federal government when it comes to whether a medicine is a prescription med or it's an over-the-counter med.

And if the. Is it the FTC or the FDA, one of those, probably the FDA and FDA, I would think, they maybe they allow it under a certain dosage amount. So I don't know. I don't know how that works, but whatever needs to happen to make it happen, I'm in favor of. Yeah. I my body my choice I guess they could a pharmacy could track how much you're, you're purchasing so that you're not reselling on the black market or whatever.

If you're purchasing a suitable amount for a family of four, I don't know. I'm just trying to think of any problems that could possibly, you know, come about with this. The the, like Sudafed. You do have to ask the pharmacist for that, but you don't need a prescription. Yeah. So it could be put behind the pharmacy counter if there seems to be an issue with it.

Yeah. And it would still be deemed over-the-counter. So I'm, I, it would be interesting to scan the news, Julie, and see how many snarky angry liberals out there are making horse paste comments. Yeah. Hey, why wouldn't they give it up by now? Because they're snarky, hate filled liberals. If you're so bought in on the Covid process that you can't figure out that ivermectin would have been a helpful treat, what treatment for tens of thousands of people?

You're not even bothering to look at common sense. No you're not. I think the for them, the low hanging mental fruit is I get to ridicule a conservative and they'll always do that in lieu of actually thinking. Yeah, like keying a test that you don't even know if it belongs to a conservative or not. Great. Don't think.

Just do. Yeah. Just just do it. Just follow your instincts. Because by gum that's your prerogative. All right. 840 (220) 854-2107. So I was tempted Julie to do a flagpole should ivermectin be over the counter. But I think everyone would say yes. I think that would be a super boring flagpole. Right, right. And if it's over, the I just haven't had another thought.

If you sell it over the counter, it can be sold with strict instructions that are applicable for a human, not for an animal. Yes, that's a safety feature we need. Yeah. Versus the way it's being administered right now. Right. Right right right right. And so that's a good another good thing that comes from it being over the counter is that yeah I was I was just approaching the question you asked me via you know what.

What's the negative. Why wouldn't this go to the floor blah blah blah. But a positive is that at least it has the correct amount of dosage and everything for a person, an adult, and there's guidance there that possibly isn't being given when you're purchasing it at a farm supply store. Yeah, you're right. You're getting it for a horse that's, you know, 1,500 pounds.

And yeah, so yeah, that's true. Although I just had a business idea by the horse paste version of ivermectin and then resell it in doses for your 150 pound horse.

Your mini. Your mini pony. Your mini mini pony. You know, when I lived back east for a couple of years as a missionary, way, way, way. In the southern part of the mission was an island called Assateague Island, off the. I think it was off Virginia and maybe Maryland. I can't I don't remember its way south, but Assateague Island was known for miniature horses that were only on that on that island.

Cool. Yeah, it was really cool. They need they need these 150 pound dosage amounts of ivermectin. They had these horses that were like, the size of a mid-sized dog. Wow. Those are teeny. They were. They were just little. Like it really cool. That would be fun to have on a farm. It could be your pet. Yeah. Versus a gigantic horse.

Lawrence Washington could ride them. Oh my goodness, what? Sorry. Was that on the air?

When you okay over there? I can't believe you just said that. You take a break. You probably should. Okay, we'll take a break. We'll go check and see from John. It's just a I. The the rules are a little relaxed here on this April Fool's Day. We'll be back after this on Newstalk 179. All right. It's 850 on Newstalk 107.

Julie, I feel like I deserve college credits toward a veterinarian degree right now. So we're looking up things on the internet about ivermectin, getting a lot of texts from people saying that you use the paste for horses, but like cattle and swine, they take the liquid version. So anyway, I you just asked me a question of how do you apply it to horses?

And I think they put it in their mouth like they, they, you know, somehow get it. I think it is the mouth. It says prepare the horse. And sure, the horse's mouth is free of food. This helps prevent the paste from mixing with the feed and being spit out. Yeah. And okay. Yeah it is, it is. It's totally in the mouth.

Yeah. Okay. Now we know. Yeah. Someone said that they, took ivermectin from Cal Ranch and they have to say it's false advertising because on the tube, it said it was apple flavored, and they texted it and said it's not even close. It just tastes like gross Vaseline. If I was a horse, I would want my money back.

The horse is a no, not until you get me apple flavored. You better put that in some yogurt and then I'll eat it. That's true. You know what? Could you could you smear it on an apple and then give the apple to the horse? Like, how would you. Because I'm not putting my fingers inside a horse's mouth.

Have you seen those chompers? Well, based upon what I just looked up, you have to slide it back in in the corner of their mouth, and it's got to kind of sit there, so I don't think it can go in an apple. Okay. Gotcha. I don't want to put my fingers in a horse's. I know. Look, I freak out when you hold an apple out on your flat hand and the horse eats it like, I'm like, they're going to buy some serious teeth, bite on my fingers off, and the mouth is doing that.

Weird. Yeah, like it's got its own life. Motion onto your hand. I wonder if we have anybody in our audience. Julie, who's had their finger bitten off by a horse. Is that ever happened? Bitten cleanly off. Like, I bet they've been bit. Yeah, I'm sure bit. But, I mean, like, a whole finger gone. Okay. Maybe partially severed, like it required a trip.

Stitches or a hospital or an urgent care or something. Maybe. Maybe. Yeah. Because those teeth are big. Yeah. I don't want anything to do with it. I used to have to feed the horses. Oh, okay. Yeah. Go out and fill up the water trough. Yeah. Break the ice when it got cold. Yeah. That. Yeah. Oh yeah I remember those days.

And to do the same thing. Yeah. Yeah. Are we better for it really I don't know. Are we stronger because we did that. Probably. But I don't it wasn't worth it. I'd rather be weaker. That was hard. On to do it. (208) 542-1079 some people would benefit from the horse dosage based on their body mass. I should not have read that out loud.

I need to pre-read these before I say them on the air. This is a good one. It tastes like if a bottle of hydrogen peroxide looked at an apple.

That's very funny. Apparently they all spit it out because it's like horses. So gross. So that's why you have to put it in back kind of on there, tuck it in back on their cheek because they can't spit it if you do that. All right. Well, that I guess that makes sense, Well, I remember Julie during the pandemic when if you even said the the I word, you had to do it in hushed tones.

But did you have friends that were like looking over both shoulders and then confessing that they, they, they, they got some ivermectin from Cal. Right. Like they say it like like how you get your meth, you know, like in an alley somewhere. But they were talking about like, yeah, I got some ivermectin and I took it and I got better in seven minutes, like a, you know, like it's, yeah, we're building ships or moving ships off the coast of New York with respirators on it.

Right. That's true. But people are taking ivermectin and getting getting better immediately. I bet it felt like it was this sort of underground culture that the people that were that were getting their hands on ivermectin, and it was back to black market. Yeah. It was, it was it was an ivermectin black market. The guy with the trench coat comes up to you, opens it up.

I've got some ivermectin. Yeah. And I mean Cal Ranch was the source of the they were the cartel like they were the. The manager at the corral at Colorado just wearing these big chains. Got a red handkerchief hanging out of his back pocket. You get the good stuff.

They're like cattle ranches. Probably. Good. Leave us out of this. Okay? We're selling horse paste. You stop your shenanigans talking like this. It's funny, though, because COVID's not really a thing anymore. I, I think I looked at the numbers a few weeks ago. More people have died from the flu than from Covid this year. Like a lot more.

And this is kind of a particularly bad strain of the flu. However, it's interesting that we continue to talk about ivermectin. Yeah. Well, I think that the people who are strong advocates of ivermectin, I have a client who is yeah, I only see her once a year. But, she will tell you it has helped solve other issues in her body, not just Covid.

Yeah, I've heard that. Yeah. I have no personal experience. I was not getting ivermectin off the black market, so I can't I can't speak for my personal experience. I didn't, well, and then we haven't even brought up hydroxychloroquine. Yeah, that was another one that I think was like a sibling to ivermectin, that it was another very well tolerated drug that has very few side effects but has a lot of upside, a lot of benefit.

But the people in charge, the Anthony Fauci's and his minions, lost their ever loving minds. If you said hydroxychloroquine, in fact, when you think about it, ivermectin has four syllables. Hydroxychloroquine has six syllables. It would have been a lot easier for us if we had 1 or 2 syllable words for the, for the, for the drugs that shall not be named.

We should have made up a street name for ivermectin. Yeah, give me some of the. Didn't. I think hydroxy is already taken, but it's Quinn. We'll just call it Quinn. I want some medicine. And Quinn, my color is ivermectin. Can we call it, like pink? Pink MCT pink. Crystal. Next. Let's look at it. Someone calls it Evo.

So. Yeah. No. Yeah. I need to know what color it is, because we've got to add that it is clear. Then it's clear. Evo. That's the street name for arrival. Yeah, that's that's true. Or crystal Evo. We need to know what it looks like. Someone said my friend's sister was dying with Covid, and in the hospital, my friend snuck in ivermectin and gave it to her sister.

Got well in two days and went home. No, the hospital staff was in shock. Yeah. Look. Okay, I know, but you know what? The little Fauci minions, they lose their minds when you point this thing. Is this. Why not try? It has nearly zero side effects. Yeah. Why not just give it a shot? I know it's not going to hurt anything.

We've got to take a break. News just ahead. We'll be back for our two. Coming up on Newstalk 179.

Welcome back. It's our two. Our serendipitous topic has been ivermectin today. But we're not going to spend all our time on that. Actually we just stumbled into it because of the, the bill that Tammy Nichols is putting forward. I do want to say, Julie, just during the break, one of our very nice listeners, Hillary, dropped off a package of Post Malone Oreos and, little, container of milk.

So milk for dunking. Thank you. Hillary. We really appreciate it. And you know what? Some listeners are just better than other listeners. And I just want to appreciate you. He's on one today, guys. I'm on one a little big today. But we do want to say thank you. I love all of our listeners. And especially the ones that bring us stuff big.

Thank you very. Yeah, I know we're not going to stand ivermectin forever, but we can't move on without reading this text. Okay. Are you ready? I'm. I'm ready in 2020, I treated several of my patients with ivermectin, all with excellent results. All the patients I used it on were over 65 years old and recovered from Covid quickly without hospital hospitalization.

Then I was threatened that if I continued to prescribe ivermectin, I would lose my license. I have no doubt there are many patients who died that would not have if they had been able to take ivermectin. It's the sad truth. Okay, you know what, Julie? I am resisting the urge to be livid, at this. But it.

And I have no doubt that what this medical provider is saying is true. I'm guessing it's a doctor. Nurse practitioner, someone, if that turns out to be true. And I hope we investigate everything about Fauci and Covid and all the nefarious moves that he was making. He needs to go to prison because I believe masses of people died that did not need to, because they were driven by financial concerns over the overall health of the American people.

Well, there's got to be times where this has happened criminally. In other cases, I can think of plenty of cases where parents went to prison because they weren't protecting their kids. That was the basis how they first gelled. Lori Vallow Daybell is that she didn't produce her kids, so she wasn't being a good guardian over her kids. If you are the guardian of people's health, you have a responsibility for she had the responsibility to be able to provide a a clear path to better health for Americans during a pandemic.

And he did not do it. Yeah. And you, it doesn't matter. You cannot tell me that money was a driving, deciding factor in the in the nation's health policy during Covid 100%, no doubt about it. I mean, I remember they banned hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin from being used other than in very, very specific instances, even people who had autoimmune diseases.

There are people who have lupus that take, Hydra, hydroxychloroquine on a regular basis. Yeah. They were having a hard time getting their prescriptions. Yeah, they've been on it for years. Hard time getting their prescriptions because that's how locked down it was. Yeah, yeah, it was, by the way, one, really quick follow up. Hillary told me that her sister was bitten by a horse requiring stitches.

So it can happen. Yeah. I can didn't lose the finger, but did you ask if if the sister was administering ivermectin and into the back of the horse's mouth, I did not. I don't think she knew exactly what her sister was doing, just probably. There's probably lots of medicines and things you got to do in a. Yeah. I mean, I've heard it from the horse.

Never mind too obvious a joke. I'm not even going to make it. That's how obvious it is. Straight from the, (208) 542-1079. If you'd like to join us on the program this morning, I was going to say and the nays have it.

That was your main point, was it was. I galloped right through. I know, but you need to bridle your passion. Okay. If the shoe fits, it's true. Okay. We are saddled with way too many puns today. We got a great move on. Weakness in. Please. Okay. Brain is in. Yeah. Okay. Can we go to Leslie? Stall for a minute?

Oh, yeah. This is crazy. This clip is crazy. Listen. The terrorist. Oh, wait. Let me get the backup. This is a Jewish man who was held hostage by Hamas. And treated horribly. The terrorists became very mean and very cruel and violent. More so much more. So they were beating me and starving me. Do you think they starved you or they just didn't have food?

No, I think they starved, man. They they would often eat in front of me and not offer me food. Okay, this says so much. There is so much to learn from that idiotic follow up question from Lesley Stahl. Number one, the left wants to give terrorist groups the benefit of the doubt. Yeah. Were they really? I mean, they were beating the crap out of you and they were holding you for ransom, and you're saying that they were starving you.

But in this area, I want to give them the benefit of the doubt. Because it's possible they just didn't have any food. Okay. I'm surprised you didn't say did they beat you or did that baton just kind of fall on your head. So I have a question. Did your husband beat you or did you just not make the sandwich good enough.

Right. Yes. That's true. It's the same concern up. Why did he punch you or was your face in the way? Yeah. What a stupid question. Can't believe she willingly said that. I can't either. And. And, I'm surprised he didn't. He wasn't offended by that. But you know what? That's just how the libs are. Look at the trend arugula thing and that judge wanting to well bring him back.

They may we may have some good guys in there. Yeah. So let's let's bring him back because we you got to bring him back. They're, they're always wanting to give the benefit of the doubt to horrifically horrible bad people. Yeah. Well it's the clip that you played during your monologue from Caroline Lovett and her going toe to toe with that journalist who was insistent that, well, maybe your criteria is not good enough for her, for who you send away and she's looking at him going, they belong to TDA.

There is no requirement past that point. Yeah. They are affiliated with a group that is dangerous to America. I don't need to go through even though they did. And she says she gave. That was at nine point bullet points. They put I can't remember how many people saying kill. And she says they went through it. But just the fact that they belong to TDA means they're gone.

Yes. Yeah, that's enough to deport them and to get him out of there. Yeah. It's weird. Why why are they doing this? Meanwhile, and I've made this point before, but I think it's worth making again. They had zero concern about the Januar three sixth protesters due process. And we we had we had people that were in jail for months and months and months without even knowing what charges were being filed against them.

Yeah, they don't care about it. But man, you take bad like a truly, truly bad bunch of people. And all of a sudden I don't know what lights up in their brain, but they get lots of sympathy for them, and they want to give them the benefit of the doubt. And they want the softest explanation for things. And they're, well, they're just misunderstood.

I'm like, no, they're terrible, evil people that need to be cleansed from the face of the earth. That's what needs to happen. Yeah. And I don't even care if they're not cleansed from the face of the earth. I'm perfectly fine that they're imprisoned in El Salvador and and living there. I don't want them in my homeland. In the case of terrorists, like overt terrorists.

Oh, heavens, that's what I'm talking about. So when you talk about ISIS and Hamas and the Taliban, no, there's only one way to deal with these. Absolutely. So, yeah. Yeah, I, I don't understand Leslie Styles sympathy here. This isn't the first time she has worn this this coat of colors. Yeah. Like this is very common for her. I think she should feel so stupid today.

I, I hope that the fact that this clip is circulating and she is getting drug, she should feel stupid. I don't know that they're capable of it. Julie. Like, she might not be. We're watching Jasmine Crockett right now. Incapable of understanding how calling Governor Greg Abbott, Hot Wheels, he's in a wheelchair, is, is a hurtful thing.

Or at the very least, I don't think it hurts, Governor Abbott I think he just moves on, blows it off, keeps going. But to, to people who, are wheelchair bound and especially those who are permanently wheelchair bound, calling someone Hot Wheels. And she doesn't understand that that can be hurtful. And she should just at the minimum say, I'm sorry, I need to choose my words more carefully, which is such an interesting concept because being paralyzed and in a wheelchair is a physical ailment, and she will not give grace for a physical ailment.

She'll make fun of it, but someone who is wants to be called Jen are minor, attracted individual. Yeah. Is a mental disease, and I'm supposed to treat them better than she treated someone with a physical ailment? Yeah, that's a that's a good point. Yeah. What a double standard there. Well, and there's also another double standard if and I can't think offhand, I'm sure there are many, Democrats that are wheelchair bound.

If any Republican called a wheelchair bound person, Hot Wheels, can you imagine. The outrage, the out. It might even last longer than Harrison. Her speech outrage lasted. Don't bring all that back up for fear they'll run another signal story this this time because I can't I can't cover that anymore. That's that's true. We haven't heard much about signal.

I'll say today. I'm so glad. Yeah. You're right. That might be making it finally, making its way. I don't think I sent you a single clip about it last night, and it wasn't that I was avoiding them. They just finally weren't there. Oh, good. Yeah. Yeah, there is hope on the horizon. Let's. Yeah. You're right. Let's not poke the bear because I don't don't wake them up.

They're finally asleep. Leslie style here. So the word signal starts twitching. Signal, signal to use a signal. Excess resignation.

My calls.

All right. 919 Newstalk 1079 we'll be back. (208) 542-1079 is the Stones Auto Group. Colin text line okay, Facebook. Now we're here with you. I'm sorry we had to. I got a scam text out of the blue. Never heard from this person before. Hello from glow cap search. I'm Lily. Can we explore remote job options with flexibility? I am excited to help you find some perfect opportunity.

Lily wants to be your friend. How did you get my number? Lily? A friend of a friend? Yeah, called Google. The Google. They mind your data? Yeah. Oh, I got, call on my voicemail from a local sheriff. This is Sergeant so-and-so, and I need to talk to you about an urgent legal matter. Please call me back at this number.

I'm like, this feels really scammy. So I Google search the name. It's a real name. But I looked at there's certain things you can tell about a person based on their voice. Not the same person. Not the same person. You're like, that voice did not come from that picture. Yes. No, no it wasn't. What are you doing?

Google? Did we say the Google and it responded to the Google? Did it really? Yeah I think you well I said Google and you said girls. Oh good. I said Google mind our data. Oh yeah. Okay. Well it reacted to that. So I will say this though when it comes to voice. Yeah. You've heard my dog bark. Yeah.

Does my dog look like a four and a half pound dog. Does my dogs bark look like it comes from a four and a half pound dog? No, everyone says that. Yeah, I've had her terrify my UPS drivers until they see her. Yeah. Because they can hear her coming running at them and they'll jump and then they'll look down and they'll be like, oh, okay, I'm good.

You know what your dog is? Rick Astley.

Oh, she's a female. So she's not quite. But you know what I'm saying? I.

A little dude with the big voice.

What's wrong with you today is wrong with me. Today is sleep deprivation. That's what's wrong. I woke up at 230 this morning. I drove to Utah yesterday. It was down and back, seven hours of driving and I got home. Probably went to bed 20 minutes after I got home at 920. So I was in bed by ten. Oh, we're on hold.

And, anyway. All right. 923 on Newstalk 1079, Neil Larson along with Julie Mason and you, if you'd like to reach us on the Stones Automotive Group, call and text line (208) 542-1079. Is that number to call? So, here's a nice little thing. Julie, this is CBS news. The imagination. It appears one of the reasons is satisfaction with aggressiveness on immigration.

Absolutely right. This is a story about balance and the things that are going well in the public mind for him is his handling of immigration, which is still net positive, and his deportation program is still net positive. And popular. People say, well, you don't think it'd be okay if there are legal residents who were mistakenly detained in this program, although there are some in his base who do.

But you look at other aspects of this, like cuts to the federal workforce that continues to be split, but you then also see a majority of, say, people saying, well, that might impact programs that they care about, even some even over a third of Republicans. I think that may happen again, a key measure to watch and look in terms of how this ties back then to that uncertainty in the economy that could have an impact worth watching to.

Okay. In short, that was, one minute long way of saying America loves Donald Trump's aggressive approach to immigration enforcement. Absolutely. And I believe that on the heels of a bad week, I think last week was a bad week and unforced error with the signal app issue. I didn't love the trolling about Greenland. I didn't love the trolling about a third term.

I know that there's people who disagree with me. That's fine. You can. I just don't think it was the best. Look, the bottom line is all of those things are about Trump. They're not about policy that's being enacted. Yeah, I believe the DEA issue is still in 80, 20. I believe immigration is a 7030 and possibly closer to an 8020.

I believe that dose is a 7030. I think most people want things cleaned up with that. I even think the Department of Education was probably a 6040. Yeah, these are all winning issues and people are for it, even if they don't love Trump that much. Yeah. Therefore it yeah, I would agree. And I think the people who are against it are the people who've just lost their bearings completely, like Lesley Stahl sympathizing with Hamas or at least trying to find benefit of the day, like they're these people that just have this reflexive top position, a reflexive opposition, everything Trump does.

That's not most of America. Most of America can say. In fact, Julie, there's a phrase we use it sometimes where love this love the sinner but hate the sin. Okay. In this case. Oh we love the sin but we hate the sinner. Like you know what I'm saying. It's, it's, it's a, it's sort of that opposite where we love what Trump's doing.

Even if you don't love Trump. Right. I don't have a problem I like Trump I think he's great. But I think America can say I can set my aversion to his personality aside because I like what he's doing. These are things that need have needed to happen for a long time, and that the Democrats just let go unabated for too long.

Donald Trump truly is coming in. He's mopping up a big honking mess left by Joe Biden and to some degree, Barack Obama before that. And, I, I, I think they're just like, you know what? I'll put up with his personality because he's getting crap done. I think that that is exactly how people feel. I don't think he is the person that everybody goes, oh he's such a good guy.

In fact Trump had I didn't send it to you but he had a conversation with somebody and he retold a story about how somebody called him kind and he said, what did you just say about me? And he goes, you're kind. And he goes, he said something back, like along the lines of, I never hear that. That's because that's not the attribute you're going to assign to Trump.

It's just not. And that's okay. I don't look for kind in leadership. Yeah, I don't I look for form, I look for I like fair and levelheaded. Yeah. I'm not looking for kind because kind of the means that you're going to reward weakness. And in a leadership position, you especially running a country you can't reward weakness.

Yeah. That you know what? That's true. And and so it's just not it's going to be way down on my list of attributes. I remember a conversation I had with a friend years ago. His daughter was in a classroom and had a particular teacher, and I was just curious because I think maybe our kids are going to the same school, can't remember.

But I said, how do you like the teacher? And he said, oh, she is the nicest, nicest lady in the world. And my daughter hasn't learned a damn thing.

Anyway, lovely person, wonderful person, terrible teacher. Kids weren't learning anything because she was just wanted to just be nice to him all the time, right? Kindness can be a weakness and it can. And and Donald Trump is he's he's not prioritizing kindness. He's prioritizing results and achieving what he told America he was going to achieve. And leading a fortune 500 company or America is a lot different than running a nursery nursery class at church.

Yeah. Kind as the leader of a nursery class. Oh, awesome. Please. Yes. The kindest person. That's where you need it. That would be amazing. Yeah. Running the country. I'm not looking for kind. Yeah. No, you're right that that's a really good point. That's a good point. Also, Julie, is there a sense of. I view it as like, civility.

I don't want to sacrifice good outcomes in the name of being civil. And I think you have particular politic actions. Their first priority is let's be bipartisan. Let's get along. Let's be nice. Let's be known for how nice we are. And I'm like, I have no use for you. I'm like, I need you to produce good legislation if you can accomplish that.

And civility at the same time, I will applaud you. That's great, I need results, I don't need you to show up and have a love fest with the other side or anybody else. I just need you to produce. And that's what we expect from our lawmakers. It's so interesting that you say that, because I had this thought about Spencer Cox about a week and a half ago, when March Madness began, had begun, and, there was a BYU game.

I don't remember which one. Obviously, Spencer Cox wanted BYU to win. He was tweeting nonstop about how bad the refs were. And I don't have a problem with Spencer Cox tweeting that the refs are bad. That's fine. That's sports. Whatever. But guess what? There's bad politicians in politics too. And he would never do that about politics. That's true.

And so when I when I was reading his tweets about BYU and the unfair way that they were being treated by the refs, I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, Mr. Civility, why can you do this in the sports realm? But you can't call out people want to kill babies? Were other people pointing that out? I didn't dig because that's that.

That does seem pretty double standard. It does. And I would be fine if you're going to call out somebody who wants to murder a baby. I'm good with that, too. And I'm good with you calling out a ref who's doing a bad job in a sports. Yeah, match up. But don't you know it's not okay to be uncivil and one and not the other?

And virtue signal all over the place in your full time job. Yes, that's true, that's true. And I, I will say, though I have seen otherwise incredibly civil people lose it at, at, athletic events. Not in Spencer Cox's defense. Because I agree with you. If you're going to be on that level, you should. But yeah. Well, and I don't want Spencer Cox to be uncivil to his neighbor.

No, I don't don't I don't want them taken up, like a shovel and a rake to each other. That's your time to be civil. Yeah. When we're talking about lawmaking, that's going to save the lives of babies. Yeah. Go ahead and unleash I. I'm good with it. Oh, yeah? Yeah. When we're talking about die, stop cosplaying. I don't need it.

I don't need your faux civility in that realm. Yeah. No I yes yes, I, I agree with that. I, I also think, how do I bring this in without it exploding into a big discussion? It's talk radio. We can have discussions like that's going to be different than last. That's what we do here. Why it's like, how do I how do I need this dough without it turning into a loaf of bread?

How do I turn this butter without making butter? This cream without making butter. You know what? And I forgot my original point that I wanted to bring up. I got sidetracked, I'll think of it. Or not, I can't remember anything I was about to say, I don't know. We were talking civility, I Cox, maybe I cosplay, I'm nothing.

No, not I, I did think, sometimes refs deserve our criticism along with Weber State fans. And Hamas. They all hang out together, right? You know, it'd be a fun, really quick, texting flagpole, would you a your kid is going to be one of these three things.

And you have to choose Taliban prostitution or the Democrat Party. I want to know from our listeners, what would you choose if your kid had to be one of the three? I warned you at the top of this hour. He was on one one. It's a great question, Julie. Is it not a Democrat? Because there's Joe Manchin out there.

There's Tulsi Gabbard, yeah, there's RFK Jr. Well, yeah, that I'm going to take Democrat. I'm talking about the they are Democrats on the outs. I'm not talking about them. I'm, I'm talking about Jasmine Crockett and Tim Walz. And that's the Democrat I'm talking I thought maybe you were talking about Josh Wheeler and Ben Furman. Okay.

Let's take a break. Shelly, the music was rolling. He can say whatever he wants. I'm. The music was rolling, and I danced right up to the line. Oh, that's not what happened. That's not what happened. All right, the music was rolling, and I have a lot more I could say about that. Oh, we'll do it on the other side.

I wasn't upset that you said that. That's like. Oh, I just spilled on myself here. You need to know I have. You already handed me some today. All right. I'm just going to use them all. Okay. Hey. Hamas, prostitution in the Democrat party. That's funny. Come on. In the words of my daughter, you guys are unhinged.

Yes, yes, we are. Okay. Okay. I have, I have a story for our Facebook audience. Actually, it's a scenario. Okay? I mean, is this news to me? No. I may have shared this with you before. Okay. All right, but don't give it away, okay? Okay. Okay. So you are a photojournalist, and you're standing on the shore of the Gulf of America, and a hurricane is coming ashore, and Hillary Clinton just happens to have been in the hurricane zone, and she is being pulled away.

A wave came upon her and is pulling her out. And you there is a life preserver next to you, but you've got your camera. And so you have what the, the, the, the, the demise of a former first lady potentially happening. Okay. And so you have your camera, okay. You have a choice to make color or black and white.

Okay. That was way worse than mine. Josh Wheeler, Ben Furman comic. No, you misread me. I was not I was not I. No, I understand why you thought that, but yeah, I did you hear about the four two former two current law enforcement officers in Harris County, Texas, who committed suicide within six weeks? Yeah. Yes, I did see that story.

What's going on? I don't know, but you have to think this is more than a Cohen. Yeah. This, that when you said Hillary Clinton, I was like, you had a problem with these four. So is it, three of them in the same week by the. Okay. I you're they're suspicious circumstances surrounding each suicide like unclear if it really was a suicide.

Suspicious. No, no, but I think that you if you know the yeah. You know how to make it look okay. Like suicide. Gotcha. Mean look at what we've deemed suicide. Jeffrey Epstein. Yeah. Obama chef in water. He could stand up in. Yeah. Eight. Right. And then the whole list of Hillary's people. Yeah I know how many dead bodies are we up to?

I mean, I don't believe anybody died weird on that list at all. What I'm saying nobody and nothing suspicious at all to see here. This is for entertainment purposes only.

Have you seen those conspiracy videos where they they lead or they'll end it or start it with. This is for entertainment purposes only. They've been told by lawyers to say that that that will stand up in court. And it probably would, to be honest. Yeah, it probably would, Yeah. So lawyers always tell him if you're going to, if you're going to float a conspiracy theory on social media, started out with for entertainment purposes only, and my lawyer told me to say that.

And you can say that whole phrase and it will still hold up in court. Yeah, yeah. That's okay. Everything. Now that comes out of my mouth, I'll preface it with for entertainment purposes only.

Okay. My is your tech slide. Wicked. It's very very slow today. It was kind of slow yesterday too though. Not loading it. Yeah. Yeah okay. We've had quite the day today. Like what's the risk reward of saying a joke like you did about was done earlier and I just did about Furman and Wheeler. The reward is better because Washington already hates you.

That's true. And one of those two politicians already hates me for sure. Yeah, there is no doubt. Yeah. Back me up on that. You're. No, you are. You are correct. Yeah. So the reward was worth it. Yeah. Yeah. Right.

942 Newstalk 107 and Neil Larson, along with Julie Mason and, nobody's calling today, Julie, because you're like, I don't want to be related with anything that you're doing today. (208) 542-1079 if you'd like to join us on the program today. And, what are we talking about on the break? Yeah, well, we I mentioned the four people who.

It's not what you wanted to talk about. Oh, no. Like, prior to the break, like coming in. Oh, well, we were taught you presented the question about the the, you have three choices. Yeah. And you said prostitution, terrorist or Democrat, right? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And then you said and I said, we've already got Democrats in the state ledger.

Oh, wait, they call themselves Republicans, right? That's true. And then you said, I don't know.

You don't want to repeat it. Like, I don't want to repeat the line that I said about a previous attorney general. Yeah. A vertically challenged previous attorney, Jen. Yeah. No, we have I'm trying to go through what have we missed so far today? Because there was like a zillion clips this morning. Yeah. There were, Let me think.

Well, while you're looking a real quick update to the law that was vetoed that we talked about pretty extensively yesterday by Governor Little. So the bill, I should say that was vetoed by Governor Little. The Senate bill, vaccine, protection. So, yeah, he mentioned Governor Little, mentioned that he didn't love the fact that a parent could keep their sick child at school.

Yeah. And that was one of his issues. So he gave that, reason for the veto via, like, official letterhead and everything on Saturday. Well, Monday morning, the Senate was ready, and they ran another version. Yeah. And last night, it was revealed when the calendar for the house came out, that the house is running another one today.

So I don't think they're they're going to go into a signing day. I think they're working this. I think you're probably right. This is Senator Dan Foreman introducing the fix for Senate Bill 1023. Good afternoon, Mr. Chairman. Committee Dan Foreman, Senator from district six. And I'm here to present Rs 3 to 8 zero zero in another life. This bill was, Senate Bill 1023.

It's been rewritten with a few changes. So I won't go through the entire bill at length because it's been through the entire legislative process, and you're probably familiar with it. That Senate bill was recently vetoed. So I, reached out to the gentleman on the second floor, and we've had some lengthy discussions with his staff, and we've incorporated some of the changes or, yes, all of the changes that, the governor wanted to see.

And it is in this Rs 32800 on page one, and I'll just hit the changes to the parent bill, in order to save time here. Under 70 3-502, paragraph one. Okay. Then he goes off and kind of talks about there's a lot of detail here. So it's a little tedious to hear all of the changes. But basically what he believes this does is it addresses what the governor was concerned about in the bill that he vetoed.

And hopefully it'll be enough of a fix if this is the bill that prevails, maybe the House side bill will prevail. Yeah, maybe one is written a little bit better than the other. Who knows? I, I wanted to say and, and explain to our listeners who maybe aren't real deep into politics that in the Senate that the local senators who did not vote for it was Senator Mark Harris?

Yeah. Other than that, and if I remember correctly, in southeast Idaho, all of the other senators voted for this bill. Oh, they did okay. Even Landon Cook somewhat. Yeah. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure I looked at the list, and the only familiar Southeast or East Idaho name was Mark Hayden Guthrie because Guthrie is often, you know.

Yeah, goes against the grain. Yeah. I'll look up and see if Guthrie was there, but yeah, yeah, it was so East Idaho did vote in favor of it. And then, yeah, for for a majority. And then Governor Level vetoed it. Well, a, I think we're going to find out the true sort of the true motive of the governor through all of this, too.

Yeah. If the if they can get this to work through now. And also this is not the only thing they're still working on. There was a lot of work that happened on the floor yesterday. Yeah. There was multiple things that were still going on. So to believe that they're going to be to be done tomorrow or the next day, that is not happening.

Well, a good example is the Tammy Nichols over-the-counter ivermectin bill. Yeah, I meant Vermont and Iowa. I know. No, no. I've clear I've been clear. Yeah. Right. That's what we decided the street name was. I should be clear, I be clear I have a clear. Yes. Right. Which sounds like a vodka or something, but yeah, I have clear, clear.

Do you remember the clearly Canadians we used to drink the the the carbonated. Did you ever drink that? And you know what? I don't like ginger ale. And I think it's weird when people order it as just a regular drink and not when they're trying to settle their tummy. I love ginger, do you really? Oh, yeah. Okay. My son orders it all the time at dinner yet, like, for me, I mean, I don't drink sugar drinks much at all anymore, but but no, like, if it's available, it's sad.

It scratches the same itch as, like, sprite or 7up. Like it's okay. It's, Yeah. I'd love. That's interesting. I just I would not have expected that was paired that with. I don't feel well. So I'm going to drink some ginger ale and then people order it for leisure, like, oh, I just like that. Okay. Okay. But it doesn't taste like medicine to you.

It's just it's just mentally action in my mind. Yeah. Okay. Interesting. I'm trying to think if there's anything like that for me that it's it's own thing. Did you have a. Well, now I'm going off. I'm being sick. Did you have a bowl that everybody threw up in in your house that got washed and put back in the cupboard?

I know, like I, I don't remember I didn't have a Tupperware bowl, I don't I maybe, but I think it also got used for food like that. Like. No that's the joke is that it's the popcorn bowl on other nights. But I throw up bowl when the flu is going through the house. I, you know, I'm trying to think I don't think we had a special vomit bowl at our house growing up.

Like, I don't think that was a thing maybe I have to dig deep to. But we had a green one. It was a Tupperware bowl with one of those snap on lids. The plastic lids. Oh, yeah. Yeah, we had one of those. Oh, the big ones. Yeah. You had a lot of vomit, right? What would you throw? There's no way my mom gave it to me.

I'm not a throwing up her. I don't throw up. But. Hey, guys, I think that's the mom going. I am definitely not cleaning this. And it was not used for anything else like, oh no, no, we used it all the time for other stuff. Oh God yes. See, I love that. I think that's great. Absolutely. Wait. Why not?

Why not? If you're okay, let me ask you this question while we're diving into this. Okay. If you let's say you're eating something and it's on a little saucer and there's a little bit that's leftover, do you let Q just lick it off the saucer off of a regular plate? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, we do that once in a while too.

Yeah, yeah. And then you just wash the plate, throw it in the dishwasher. Yeah, absolutely. Okay. I bet you that we have listeners that would say that's disgusting. Probably. Probably. Yeah. Yeah, they would probably think I'm too close to my dog then. Anyway because I. I'll let my dog lick my cheek. You guys. Yeah. Yeah. And you love your dog.

Like I get that. Yeah. I just they remind.

I never mind someone says it's got to be the real ginger ale and man our, our system's a little. Yeah. Somebody said we had that too. It's called the barf bowl. Yeah. Right. I think everybody I just don't remember which bowl it was in my house, I don't remember. Yeah, yeah. All right, well, let's, let's take our last little break here.

(208) 542-1079. All right. Facebook Neil equals an 80 year old. What does that mean? What did I say I don't know Guthrie did vote against it. So Harrison Guthrie someone else said they felt like Lance did not. Okay, Burton shot dead. Where's Burton? Shot from. Isn't he up? Is that is that represented Mud Lake? Is it mud like?

Okay. It's got to be the real ginger ale. Not this flavored nonsense. Like the microbrews, but I'm going to screen this car. Right. Okay. Have you on? Oh, okay. Well, What? Oh, gosh. I only have about a. Oh. Oh, yeah. That's terrible. Bad. All right. I can't tell the story on there, but I'll tell it here. Okay.

He, the the several guys at noodles, whatever. And the guy's like, oh, I'll clean it up. He licked off each plate and then put it back in the. Oh, yeah. Yeah yeah yeah. Oh, gross. Yeah. That's terrible. Oh I okay I want to know what I said that they said I'm an 80. I'm not sure. I don't know.

Lent voted against it. That list you sent all lent is on there. Yeah. Oh, crap. All right. We're back 956 on Newstalk 1079. So we had, Van Orden lent Harris, Guthrie and Burton Shaw all voted against the bill from our side. There were others, but those are the ones. Yeah. So I did a quick look up.

So, and I sent the list and then. Yeah. So lent is on there. Lend is on there. I didn't see it at first. Yeah. Interesting. I wonder why lent do you think that was? Pressure from my Jackie? Me maybe. Maybe I yeah, maybe I don't, I don't know who knows. Honestly. Like they, they would just say it's their conscience.

And do you know what would be interesting there too is if they feel like the that it can get cleaned up with the recommendation from Lidl and then they'll change their vote. Well, maybe unless it's a totally different reason. The reason they don't have to mirror what what? Yeah, I'm just wondering if they are. That's what they think as well.

May maybe and and it could be I would hope. Here's the thing. If it all you have to do is fix the governor's concerns. Because the the bill passed both chambers. So it doesn't matter that they're voting against it. You just got to fix the governor's concerns, because as long as you're getting the same people voting the same way, it's going to pass again.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, it's interesting because in both of the clips, we didn't get this far, but in the ivermectin clip that we played from Tammy Nichols and also the Dan Foreman clip about the 1023 fix, Melissa intro right at the end shared the exact same concern. She just thinks it's too late to to take it up like it's it's a there's not enough time now hearing none.

Senator Windrow go ahead you mister chair I appreciate it. So, it appears that this are, deals with. A bill that is potentially in the eighth order that's been vetoed by the governor. Has been has been vetoed by the governor. Excuse me. So I, I will actually vote not to print, mostly because I voted against the original bill, and I'm not sure if the changes will actually address the issues or not.

So to be safe, I'm just going to say no. Okay, so not quite the lateness, but yeah, she's like, I didn't like the bill. Anyway, I'm just going to vote no again because I want my way and I don't really have an explanation for it. I know, I know, it's like, okay. She wanted to explain herself before that she was the only one, I think, that voted, against moving forward.

So have a wonderful Tuesday, everyone. Julie and I will be back tomorrow. We look forward to that. Up next, it's Clay Travis and Buck Sexton on News Newstalk 179.
