Starting point is 00:00:00 The Bill Meyer Show podcast is sponsored by Clauser Drilling. They've been leading the way in southern Oregon well drilling for over 50 years. Find out more about them at clauserdrilling.com. Here's Bill Meyer. Welcome to St. Patrick's Day, Monday, March 17th, 2025, rainy and 42. It looks like it's just going to be pretty much rainy and probably not a whole lot warmer than it is right now. Okay. That's just the way it is. Just got pounded with rain over the weekend. Now, we do have some...
Starting point is 00:00:29 Actually, we only have one weather delay at this point in time that I'm aware of, and I haven't received any other contacts from any of the other districts, but Three Rivers School District is on a two-hour weather delay today, and the buses are on a two-hour delay, etc., etc., so because of the rain and the buses are on a two-hour delay etc etc so because of the the rain and the flooding and there's been a lot of that in Siskiyou County in fact they had quite a few I was reading a daily courier flooding leading to actually this is KDRV pardon me flooding leading to several water rescues yesterday in Josephine County because of flooding rural metro fire st cruise initially
Starting point is 00:01:04 dispatched to upper river road hunt, disabled vehicle stranded in the middle of the road and then the adjacent levee failed on a irrigation ditch next to Fort Benoit Elementary School. So in other words, there was a lot of stuff going on yesterday when it comes to the weather but it is going to start drying out a little bit later tonight into tomorrow. And then another round of storms will be kicking up here. It's going to remain wet and kind of snowy in the higher hills right now. I want to give you a quick take here on what we're looking at right now.
Starting point is 00:01:36 Siskiyou Summit had an inch of new snow overnight, about eight inches on the side, and TripCheck reporting that they're just saying, hey, carry your chains, you know, they're not required at this point. Hays Hill, though, snowing spots of ice and a new snow, a new bit of trace of snow, four inches there, and they're also restricting that just a little bit, just to be prepared on that, though. However, they're saying carry chains, attraction tires if you're heading out to the coast one way or the other because you know who knows what's going to be going on. Lake of the Woods, Lake of the
Starting point is 00:02:12 Woods, pretty severe weather going on there on Highway 140, chains required than anybody that's towing or above 10,000 pounds on your gross vehicle weight. And let's see, we got six inches of new snow there overnight. Green Springs, Highway 66, they had an inch of snow, 49 inches on the side, and yeah, definitely you want to take your chains with you there. Dead Indian Memorial Road, pretty much it's closed except for local traffic. I think you've known about that, maybe you haven't known about that, but needless to say they've had an inch or two snow overnight
Starting point is 00:02:46 So we have a lot of snow in the higher hills Which has been kicking in and that could still be going on this morning Join the conversation if you're seeing anything going on seven seven zero five six three three seven seven zero KMED first of all I don't know if my brother Mike is listening this morning Sometimes he tunes in on the Facebook live, but I got to say happy birthday, Mikey. Happy birthday, Mikey. Let's see, it's 1964, so he's 61 years old today. Happy birthday, my little Irish leprechaun brother. Mike was always the ornery one. He's still ornery as a 61-year-old. He can't help himself. But Michael was always as the little brother. He was the youngest of our family.
Starting point is 00:03:26 Diana was the middle and I'm the eldest. The funny thing about Michael is that if things were too quiet, Mike had to stir it up. That's what we loved about him. That's what was also enraging about him at that time too. I just have to smile on some of the stuff I think back to Michael, my brother Mike, as a little kid. So ornery and usually getting in trouble. There was one point that Diane and I got so upset with him because he must have been tormenting us or doing something like that, that we actually took him and we put him in jail. Now, mom wasn't impressed because what we considered jail
Starting point is 00:04:07 was that we had this old, we had an old dryer in the basement, gas dryer with the glass window in it, you know, that sort of thing. And so we put it in it and we held it, and we held it closed. Now we didn't turn the dryer on. I must've been like four, Diana was three, and Michael was maybe two, you know, that kind of thing.
Starting point is 00:04:25 And Mike was screaming and carrying on. And of course, Mom was really upset at that time from what I remember because, well, you know, what if the... Well, we never would have turned it on, but she didn't know that at the time. But Mom also said later, yeah, I had to write. I had to laugh. I always remembered what he was like. At one point, my father made...my father ended up making a paddle one day, the board of education, so to speak. You know, the disciplinarian tool here is what we had. And Diana and I shared one side of the paddle with our names written on it, and Michael had his own. And I'll remember when I was about five, six years old, I was in the living room and mom was in the living room too and we saw Michael sneaking around and he ended up going and
Starting point is 00:05:14 getting the paddle out of the cupboard where it was kept. And he's like looking around and he's tiptoeing around and he's going over and he's hiding the paddle. He's hiding the paddle. He's hiding the paddle. And then mom's going, she starts laughing at the same time, go, okay, what has he done now? And starts looking around to whatever he had broken. But all right, there we go. Happy birthday, my brotherly leprechaun on St. Patrick's Day. No saint, but we love him dearly. brotherly leprechaun on St. Patrick's Day. No saint, but we love him dearly. 60 minutes after 6-7-7-0-5-6-3-3. We have open phones this hour. Anything that's on
Starting point is 00:05:50 your mind? You've seen some weather-related issue or anything else going on, please let me know. Other than that, hey, you can call in on anything you want. Hi, good morning. Who's this? Welcome. Good morning, Bill. It's deplorable St. Patrick out here. And I enjoyed seeing you at the Patriot Conference. Thank you. And kind of which we had, you did a great job of bringing in Kevin Starrett the best way you could. And, but it'd been nice to have him there. I was going to ask him a question. I'll ask you. Now. I asked you this before
Starting point is 00:06:25 Maybe you you didn't know before but maybe you know more now I got Caught straddled of this deal. I put a deposit on a rifle and I haven't picked it up yet And I don't want to go through all of those hoops. When does that 114 kick in? Not only that, I just have a brand new pistol that I love which would not qualify under the new regime. Well practically everything in my safe doesn't qualify any longer. I have a feeling it's going to be probably one of
Starting point is 00:07:03 the most violated laws here in southern Oregon besides the speeding law as it were. But as far as measure 114 is not in effect right now, it is not. It is one of those things where there is now a delay given what happened with the court and now what is most likely going to happen is that it's giving them time for the plaintiffs to appeal to appeal appeal to the Oregon Supreme Court. Okay? So... You don't always know.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Sometimes things are in place pending appeal or they're not in place depending on an appeal. Well, if I recall correctly, I remember Kevin telling me that there's like a few days, they gave them like three, four weeks to formulate on whether or not they will allow the other side to appeal or where the other side will wish to move forward with an appeal. OK? Well, that's good information. Thanks a whole bunch, Bill.
Starting point is 00:07:54 Yeah, yeah. So nothing's stopping you for right now. But I would say given the desires of the regime to desire, well, to disarm regular folks and continue to arm criminals, I would get your firearms sooner rather than later. Okay? That's all I would say. Well, you know one thing that hasn't been said, but maybe it doesn't even need to be said, so I'll say it anyway.
Starting point is 00:08:20 They don't want you having those high-capacity magazines leaving your house. That's just the first step. They'll be coming in your house next. Absolutely. I would agree with you wholeheartedly and people need to be treated accordingly. Appreciate the call. Thank you very much, Patrick, and happy St. Patrick's Day. Let me go to the next line here. It's open phones here on Monday as we get rolling. Hi, good morning. Who's this? Bill, it's Herman. How are you doing today? Herman, I'm well. What about yourself? Hey, I just I wanted to give you an update. I listened to a little news brief on the Fort Benoit School. So first of all, that wasn't an irrigation ditch. That was Fort Benoit Creek.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Oh, Fort Benoit Creek. Okay. Sorry about that. Yeah, and it's probably because all the trees have grown up in that creek over the years, which is good for the fish but bad for the flooding. Our farm got hit pretty hard and I want to thank all the people that have called and stopped by to help. It was great. What was it like at your farm? What happened? Well, I hope the state is gracious enough to name it Lake Beartjigger now. Oh, really? Lake Beartjigger.
Starting point is 00:09:34 Okay. Yeah. Let's see if we can get a remonstrance up there. Okay. Get someone to ask about it. But, you know, for everybody out there with their concerns, I really appreciate that. There was no damage done to any of the buildings. It's just all the fields got full of water and got fish in my front yard and stuff like that. But that was a result of the creek leaving its channel. Now, do you know, did we actually get any flooding on the Rogue or did it pretty much stay within the Rogue River, just really super high water everywhere? I didn't see it going over the banks, did you? No, this is local flooding. You know, I don't think it had anything to do with the snow packs. Thankfully, the temperature didn't rise enough to melt all the snow quickly.
Starting point is 00:10:20 Which means we didn't really have a repeat of that 1997 New Year's type flooding, which we had a whole lot of snow, and then we had that warm rain, that pineapple express, and it just went rushing, rushing down from the mountains into the into the valleys. Remember that? We also had local flooding, and that was the last time I've seen this much water around the farm. I will tell you that. There was a lot of water, but it was all because of local flooding. And, you know, we've tried to clean the trees. This has happened a few times to the school.
Starting point is 00:10:52 And, you know, you can't get the Division of State Lands to let you clean out the creek, and this is what happened. That's just how it works. So it's about getting permits to be able to clean the trees that are there. Of course, I imagine the environmentalists, though, of course, would fight you saying that that's for fish habitat, right? Would that be what we would expect? It's all of that stuff, but it causes a lot of damage, and when you have this much water. But something worth noting, every day I feed the horses about five and have one old horse that gets its grain. So he's got a grain dish out there, which is a large plastic, a rubber dish, it's about 10 inches high and it's a cylinder. So tonight, or last night when I went to feed him, so that's 24 hours, there was five inches of water in that dish.
Starting point is 00:11:47 Whoa. So now Jackson County had heavy rain, but we know that when you get the serious rain, it's always Josephine County gets hit with it. And boy, something like that over the weekend is what happened from the sounds of it. Right. So it's a cylinder with straight sides. I am not saying we got five inches of rain. I'm saying we got a hell of a lot of rain. Yeah. Well, still, if you have a straight, you know, something with straight sides and it gets five inches, you can say pretty close that that's probably about five inches of rain that you got there on your property. And it's 24 hours because I fed the night
Starting point is 00:12:24 before at about five o'clock. So yeah, it was a lot of rain, Bill. I know what happened in my front yard. Like I said, I'm over in East Medford by Foothill and we didn't see any damage or any kind of flooding going on because there's enough of a grade. It ended up kind of flowing down. But Bear Creek, I imagine Bear Creek got pretty high in Jackson County and a lot of other smaller creeks, Wagner probably, if you were by a creek, probably wasn't the best weekend
Starting point is 00:12:50 for you, I would imagine, just about everywhere, right? Nope, nope. The water has went down quite a bit and so I'm hoping another day or so we'll be back to normal. It really drains out fast around here once it quits raining. I've noticed that. Is it just because of the grades of the hills that we have around here or is it just the kind of soil? But I've noticed that it's not like... you know, when I was living in Fargo years ago, Fargo-Moorhead, that whole area is just lake bottom. You know what I'm talking about? It's all prehistoric lake bottom and it floods every spring and it floods insanely. You know, a huge amount there in the Midwest, in Minnesota and in Fargo because the land doesn't perk.
Starting point is 00:13:38 It just doesn't. It just sits there, you know, forever. And it's not that way here, I guess. No, you got to remember all this rain that's falling on all these mountains around Grant's Pass is trying to figure out how to get to the Rogue River. That's what's going on. All right. Well, Herman, I'm glad you're doing okay. Thanks for the report from your farm. Okay. You'll be well. All right. Thanks. 24 after 6. 7705633. What's going on in your neighborhood? How did you handle the weekend flooding and rain? Like I said, you know, it was
Starting point is 00:14:12 just rain. It just never stopped at my place. It got muddy, and I see there was some pooling water in my front yard, that kind of thing. I have a gutter line which is plugged because of the old trees that were taken out. I have to dig that up in the next week or two, try to get that done and get it all cleared out. So I had pooling in the front yard but that was because the gutter line was plugged but that was about it. It just rained and rained and never stopped. 770-563-3, let me go to first line here. Hi, good morning. Who's this? Yeah, good morning Bill, this is Terry. Hey Terry, how are things?
Starting point is 00:14:46 Well, it's good. Hey, just a road update. It is snowing like crazy out in Murphy and there's about an inch or so of snow actually on the road. So, yeah. Now, this is in, you said Murphy, right Terry? Murphy? Murphy, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:59 Okay. Literally in the town of Murphy. It's snowing. I mean, snow's on the road. The road's horrible. I'm also getting reports that there is snow falling on Hays Hill. I don't know if much of it is sticking at this point, but yeah, Josephine County seems to get a bunch of that.
Starting point is 00:15:13 Highway 140 is a mess this morning too, just so you know. Yeah. I mean, we're not high in elevation here either. I mean, it's huge. Yeah. It's a place out here. So anyway, thanks, Bill. Hey, thank you for the report there. Yeah. I know that Kevin Lawless over at NBC5 talking about snow levels really at about 1,500 feet, so you don't have to...down at the valley floor is the potential there. I'm not seeing any here at the Rogue Valley International Airport right across the street
Starting point is 00:15:40 here so far, but the potential is there until a little bit later, then it's just going to be rain. And then it starts drying up into tomorrow. And then another series of storms hits on Wednesday, Wednesday afternoon. Ready to upgrade your roof to a durable, sleek metal option? Look no further than Stephen Westfall Roofing Ink.

Hi, I'm Stephen with Stephen Westphal RRiffinney and I'm on KMED. 7705633. It is open phones for the first hour.
Starting point is 00:17:34 And one question I want to pose to you this morning. Tell me what level of pride that you had over the weekend with President Trump sending back the Trendy Aragwa, you know, the terrorists, the ones in in Denver that were taking over taking over apartment buildings and and terrorizing residents and things like that. I don't think I ever felt better about President Trump than with yesterday. Because over the weekend we ended up having the judge, appointed by Obama by the way, saying, nope, you've got to fly those terrorists, you've got to fly them back, give them due process. And of process and of course he used a 1789 law to be able to send criminal aliens back.
Starting point is 00:18:27 Just back you go. There you go. Trendy Aragwa. I think it's how that how that goes how you pronounce that. And they're there and of course the Democrats yesterday were just going through hissy-fits going he ignored a judge's order. Now the White House is claiming that he didn't ignore the judge orders. Frankly, I wouldn't give a damn if he did ignore the judge order. In fact, as far as I'm concerned, I would prefer that he ignore the judge's order to an inferior court and doesn't have anything on the executive branch when it comes to conducting foreign affairs. And arguably this is a foreign affair type thing. To me that was just... I never felt better. It's like, thank you. At some point the
Starting point is 00:19:16 black-robed bandits do need to be defied. And it's not that I'm talking about ignoring rule of law, but the thing is, we've just gotten to this point where this whole concept, we've all been cowed by judicial supremacy in which nothing can be determined until a judge weighs in on it. And the problem with a situation like that, the challenge of a situation like that, is that if everything has to go through the courts, if everything has to go through the courts before anybody can do anything, we don't have
Starting point is 00:19:50 three co-equal branches of government. We have judicial supremacy. And judicial supremacy is wrong. You're supposed to have three co-equal. Now, you can certainly have the courts weigh in, but as far as I'm concerned, I know the White House is saying, well, you know, the plane was already in international airspace. We weren't going to bring it back at that point. We didn't ignore it. Frankly, I don't care if he did ignore it. Because I think constitutionally that inferior court had nothing to say about this. Now I'm going to talk with Dr. Dennis Powers about this a little bit later, but I think
Starting point is 00:20:28 I'm reasonably sound on this one, even though I'm just a baby constitutional person. No, I don't have a law degree, but half the time I swear you go to law school so that you learn how not to read the Constitution and you only read what the Constitution has been discussed by the courts, you know, that kind of thing. It gets a little irritating, you know, after a while. Well, I'm sorry, you know, you have to take the 250 gang members, sorry, you got to put them, you know, back on our soil and feed them and clothe them and have them there. And President Trump said, no, country is better off without it. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:21:06 And I wouldn't even back away from defying a court order, because sometimes courts need to be defied. This whole concept that if the court says it, well, that's it. That's the final aspect of this. I think this is something which has really hurt our nation for a number, well, a couple hundred years, probably probably really. I imagine Marshall is the one that really got that rolling, huh? We can talk about that and other things. 7705633. What's on your mind? Let me go to the next line. Hi, this is Bill. Who's this? Welcome to Monday.
Starting point is 00:21:37 This is Brian Weldon. Hey, Brian. What's going on with you? Hey, I just wanted to... I live very close to Herman Burchizer, and I heard him. I live 100 feet from the Rogue River. And I'll tell you what, I thought it was bad, the storm on January 1st. And boy, we exceeded that last night. I've been up all night, scared to death about what was going on with the river. Has it come into your property, or is it just like right up there at the edge? Well, the river rose last night. It crested at 1255 last night, almost one in the morning, at 17.3 feet high. How high is that over flood stage? Quite a bit.
Starting point is 00:22:26 We all live on the flood side because we're what we call low bank and the other side of the river is high bank. The river crested last night at 46,700 CFS cubic feet per second. Boy, that is a lot of water flowing down there for every second. Now, have you had to sandbag your property? How's it looking at your house there, Brian? No, it would be useless to try and sandbag anything. I live so close to the river. In 1997, I didn't live here, but the realtor told me
Starting point is 00:22:57 we had two and a half feet of water in our garage. All homes have garages in the direction of the river, and you just open up all your garage doors, get your cars, and get out. Uh-huh. So we came within a few feet of getting water in our garage last night. And I know Merlin, Murphy, I mean,
Starting point is 00:23:16 they're flooding all over this area last night. Fortunately, I think the worst of it may be over, and that we're gonna start seeing a reduction in the the rain and it will start drying out later on. So I think if you're doing okay right now, you'll probably be fine, Brian. Yep. Yeah, I'm open, yeah. Cross your fingers on that. Thanks for the report.
Starting point is 00:23:37 I really do. 770-5633. We're just kind of noodling around with what's going on in your neighborhood. Lots of rain, lots of flooding in certain places around creeks and rivers. Hi, good morning. Who's this? Good morning, Bill. Hey, Tom.
Starting point is 00:23:50 Cheers. How did we arrive at the point where any tin pot judge across the country can countermand the president in his executive orders and enforce the Constitution? How did we arrive at that point? That seems so insane to me to think that some judge could actually countermand the president and tell him bring those prisoners and Nerdy Wells back. It's just crazy. I'm not exactly sure when this started, but it's certainly judicial activism.
Starting point is 00:24:27 But you know, I'm going to talk to Dr. Powers about this because I think this is important. Absolutely. We're seeing it over and over and over again where the judges are just countering the president and his actions and so forth. And I would, there was, wasn't there some quote about somebody, one of the presidents, they had a court say, you have to do this. Oh yeah, that was, wasn't that President Jackson at that point or?
Starting point is 00:24:57 Well, he said something, let him enforce it. Yeah, exactly. You have issued your order now. Yeah, exactly. I'll look that up during the break, but I remember it was kind of famous. Now, by the way, it's not that we advocate for lawless action and that, you know, ignoring of courts, but it is just one of the tools and this idea that you have a constitutional power in which, essentially, when it comes to the conducting of foreign affairs and this and that, that's the president. That's it.
Starting point is 00:25:32 President and Secretary of State. That's it. It's not a federal judge. That's right. And you talk about lawless. I think that judge's order was lawless. The judicial branches become lawless. You are seeing it witnessing here in Oregon with the 114.
Starting point is 00:25:49 I mean, they're breaking the law, and that's the trouble all through Oregon. They're just breaking the law all over the place, and they're just using judicial overreach to basically traumatize everybody, dominate it. Because you even go to the Measure 114 ruling, a plain reading of the law indicates that it's unable to be complied with, and if it is unable to be complied with, it is in essence a violation of people's rights. But this is what happens though when communists are allowed to run through the institutions and there is very little pushback. And we also have the scam known as, well, every leftist judge that we have on the higher benches was appointed by a democratic governor
Starting point is 00:26:40 in this state. Yeah, well, that's certainly a sad thing. You know, Oregon is not just gone democratic. It's pretty much a communist state now and I've known quite a few people that have just packed it up and moved out because they're so disgusted with... And yet that leaves us here in this situation, you know, do we do we stand and fight or are we just in the... I mean, it's soft communism obviously wishing to harden over time in the near future. Yeah, well that's certainly my position. I mean, we talk about it all the time. I mean, it's just, well, you know, all these, you know, transgender story hour and just on and
Starting point is 00:27:22 on. I mean, I feel like I'm living in an insane asylum. And the inmates are going along with it. They think it's great. By the way, you do know that last week there was an interesting story about how there was a mental health professional within the Oregon Health Authority identifying as a tortoise. So, need we say more? That kind of explains everything. Appreciate the call there, Tom. Feel your pain. I think we all do. Good morning. Hi, this is Bill. Who's this? Good morning, Bill. Michael Shaw. Happy Monday. Happy Monday. Happy St. Patrick's Day. Happy St. Patrick's Day. Had a good corned beef dinner last night, but it's night so it's all great this morning. The point that you guys have been
Starting point is 00:28:11 making about judicial issues, the first thing that popped back into my head was all the great old Westerns when you're dealing with land grabbing barons being held up and supported by the local sheriff and judges. And that seems to me something that we dealt with for many, many decades. It's just very evident and overwhelming nowadays. Nothing new in other words. Nothing new, just more prevalent. I think it's something that we really need to address as a society as a whole is where are those divides? I mean we have three factions with three separate parts of government and are they allowed to do
Starting point is 00:28:55 their jobs or not? And yet then you have to ask, all right, if the judiciary is the only one that has the ability to determine the constitutionality of something, does that not, in essence, make it the superior primary form of government in this country? Well, but see, that's supposed to be the whole point. Three separate parts of government to be checks and balances against each other, now one supreme over the other. But if only one is allowed to determine what is constitutional or permitable,
Starting point is 00:29:31 that has to be the superior branch, right? One would assume that, but that's where you get into the defying of the order as we've talked about. And you can ignore unlawful orders. And that's what we've been taught in the military. And that's why if President Trump had denied the order, I don't care. Because I think it's an unlawful order. And it's like this idea that, oh, okay, well, I'm going to sit here and just whiz in my drawers as a president every time the court issues a ruling.
Starting point is 00:30:08 Forget about that. Come on. Yeah. So what if the court came up with the ruling that all gay individuals had to be rounded up and imprisoned? Would that be possible? Would we all be saying, oh, well, it's okay. It came from the court.
Starting point is 00:30:22 We got to do it. And of course we wouldn't. It'd be nonsense, right? Absolutely. So you got to follow the sensibility of things. All right, thank you very much. I like that. That's what's needed in the Constitution right now in the judiciary, a sensibility clause. Does it make sense? My gosh, most of what comes out of the Oregon Court of Appeals would not be. That's a wooden passbuster, that's for sure. We'll catch up on the rest of the news here in just a moment and continue a conversation. We have a lighter story. You know how it's just, criminals just aren't that bright, but it's really interesting
Starting point is 00:30:58 when you admit your crimes to an agent. And I have to share this story. Reverend David sent it to me. Just made have to share this story. Reverend David sent it to me, just made me smile over the weekend. I'll have that coming up. You'll enjoy it. Your smile is the key to your health and confidence. Do you know that it is possible in a single... The Lake Great Golden State update we have to give it to you because criminals are not too too bright here, but this was a story that was sent to me by Reverend Dave
Starting point is 00:31:28 It was in Gateway Pundit missed that over the weekend, but I love this one a California couple convicted after bragging to fish and wildlife officers about their illegal possession of a sea turtle among a whole bunch of other trophies now This was a flight that happened back in November 2023, and the plane closed officers from Fish and Wildlife. They were on the plane, and they overhear this couple behind them talking about hunting, and they joined in the conversation. According to this release by Caldra Fish and Wildlife, they put this out the other day,
Starting point is 00:32:00 24-year-old Byron Lee Fitzpatrick and 28-year-old Shannon Price boasting to the officers. Now remember, these were fish and wildlife people on the plane with them. But they were boasting to the officer about the sea turtle skull that they had in their luggage. Now that's a federally listed endangered species illegal to possess or transport them. Gosh, I wouldn't have known that, but I guess, you know, anything is probably illegal unless you have a permit these days, right? But anyway, back to the two doofuses here. The pair also bragged about their unlawful take of a California mountain lion, and then they kept talking. Fitzberg and Price then
Starting point is 00:32:40 continue on and talking about a family member who had poached and mounted all sorts of trophies, including mountain lions, wolves, and a wolverine. And the couple even showed camera footage of the family member's trophy room. Now, that was 64-year-old Harry Fitzpatrick. And once they were off the plane, the officers, the fish and wildlife officers, were asking the couple, hey, can we see your turtle skull? So the couple ends up showing the officers the turtle skull only after they were sure that there were no agents from TSA around them.
Starting point is 00:33:15 The officers later wrote up search warrants for the couple's home in Chico, California, and the Fitzpatrick residence over in Napa County, which is what they did. So they swooped in there and caught a rival at the end. This is on top of everything else. Remember, they're telling the fish and wildlife officers everything that they had poached. And at one point they even mentioned that they were working for these agents. They kept talking to them anyway. So the agents get to the couple's home. They found the two
Starting point is 00:33:47 processing another deer that they had poached earlier that day. And they also found all sorts of other stuff, poached animal parts, including mountain lion claws, a ring-tailed cat, a barn owl, an illegal spike buck, a whole bunch of deer, other poached mounts that they found in the Fitzpatrick's home too. So there was a plea agreement about a year ago in the Eastern District of California. So after all that though, they got a fine of a thousand bucks each for violating federal wildlife regulations and laws. And then Fitzpatrick, who had all those other poaching things, he was fined six hundred
Starting point is 00:34:22 five bucks. And he got a six-month hunting probation. So he can't hunt for six months after all of these poached animals? Only six months? Does that make sense? Of course, maybe this is just California. We're not charging anybody with serious crimes unless maybe climate crimes. Oh yeah, well yeah, you try to bring Freon into California for Mexico, the EPA goes after
Starting point is 00:34:53 you. There was a big story about that coming up, but I digress. But Price was convicted of violating Fish and Game Code. He got a $1,015 fine, ex-a-she, also prohibited from hunting for one year. But Cal Department of Fish and Wildlife, saying in a statement, this case exemplifies the unwavering preparedness and swift action demonstrated by her wildlife officers. What, the most they got? Maybe $1,000 in fines and they can't hunt for either six months or a year?
Starting point is 00:35:22 Does that make sense? Wouldn't that be something? Now hunters, this is something I would ask you. Isn't that something that you qualify for a lifetime hunting ban? You've made it really clear that you don't care what the rules are. In fact, they were bragging about it. They just kept going. But anyway, there we go. There's our Lake Gray Golden State update. And thank you, Reverend Davis, for that great story. Yikes.
Starting point is 00:35:50 News Talk 1063, KMED, you're waking up with the Bill Meyers show. I don't really have any Irish beds for St. Patrick's Day, so I guess I have to play U2 all morning. That's it right. U2. What are the other ones? Van Morrison. I have to play some Van Morrison bumpers right? Isn't that what I have to do? All right 770-563-3770 KMED. Other stories going on this morning. Yeah there was the the whole deal about President Trump. He claims I did not ignore the court order to bring the Tren de Aragua terrorists back, the gang members, because they were already an international. I just would have said, hey, you got nothing to do with this. You're way over your skis, federal judge in an inferior
Starting point is 00:36:44 court. I will talk with Dr. Powers about that in the eight o'clock hour when he comes in for where past meets present because this is something which has just irritated me to no end. You can even look at plain reading a black letter law and just say, hey, this is all the president's doing. I like how the judge said, well, we're not at war. Okay, well, maybe we have not officially declared war on Tren de Aragua, but they've declared war on us. I think that's all that matters.
Starting point is 00:37:17 You know, frankly, it's an old law from 1780s that allows the president to get people out of the country quickly who don't belong here. I would say that they've been warring on us for a long, long time. Not just that, but many of the illegal immigrant communities, in my opinion. Let's go to Southern California for crying out loud, okay? Another interesting action over the weekend from the White House, President Trump ended up canceling all executive orders and pardons done by AutoPen. Now I don't know if this has a real effect at
Starting point is 00:37:56 the moment or if it sets this up for yet another court challenge, which seems to be what you know you send it up to the Supreme Court. I don't know if this is something that would qualify going into the emergency. Dock it or not, once again we'll talk with Dr. Powers about that. But what he wrote over the weekend, the pardons, and he put those in scary air quotes, the pardons that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the unselected committee of political thugs and many others are hereby declared void, vacant, and of no further force or effect, because of the fact that they were done by auto pen. In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them, but more importantly, he did not know anything about them. The necessary pardoning documents
Starting point is 00:38:36 were not explained to or approved by Biden, he knew nothing about them, and the people that did may have committed the crime. Therefore, those on the unselect committee who destroyed and deleted all evidence obtained during their two-year witch hunt of me and many other innocent people should fully understand that they are subject to investigation at the highest level. The fact is they were probably responsible
Starting point is 00:38:57 for the documents that were signed on their behalf without the knowledge or consent of the worst president in the history of our country, Crooked Joe Biden. I wish he'd tell us what he really thinks when he does these executive orders, but there we go. I don't know if he can actually technically cancel the pardon, but I think you could certainly bring up a court challenge of the pardons. You know, the challenge that we're looking here is that You know, the challenge that we're looking here is that challenging the pardon power, the pardon power is very broad. Very broad, kind of unchecked.
Starting point is 00:39:32 And that's why it's been important to have good people in there if you're going to do pardons, but anyway, we'll see. We'll talk more with Dr. Powers about that. Another interesting story hasn't been getting a lot of play here. I was reading this in Military Times. Navy details separation process for transgender personnel. It's Riley Cedars article here from Friday. The Navy order aligns with the February 26th Defense Department memo that instructs transgender service members to separate from the military. So they're kicking The Navy order aligns with the February 26 Defense Department memo that instructs transgender
Starting point is 00:40:05 service members to separate from the military. So they're kicking them out. U.S. Navy Administrative Order released on Thursday outlines the new policy that forces transgender service members to separate from the military. The guidelines intended for military personnel who the order states have a current diagnosis or history or exhibit symptoms consistent with gender dysphoria. And it says that the Navy will revoke exceptions that allow troops to follow the standards of a sex different from their identification in the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System. So they're getting serious over in the military. The trans world is ending in the military.
Starting point is 00:40:52 Cross-sex hormone therapy will be allowed to continue while personnel are employed by the Defense Department if recommended by a Department of Defense health care provider. The order also recommends that service members with a diagnosis of gender dysphoria consult with a Defense Department health care provider for mental health counseling. Active duty and reserve transgender service members can request voluntary separation or retirement if eligible no later than March 28. Once a request is placed, personnel will receive a non-deployable status. Service members who fail to submit a voluntary separation or retirement request will face involuntary separation. So they will fire you unless you choose to resign. So if you have gender dysphoria, the era of demanding that the island of misfit humans
Starting point is 00:41:42 not only get taxpayer funded surgery, but then also get exceptions, don't get put into certain places, and then we get a, oh, I can't be deployed right now. Hey, if you can't be deployed, you're gone. In essence is what they're saying. And this is a part of common sense returning to the military. There we go. 658.
Starting point is 00:42:04 We go to line three. Hi, good morning. Who's this? Welcome. Yeah, this is James. Hi, James. I just read the story on Gateway Pundit about, it says, de-manage Obama judge who wants to liberate Venezuelan gang members sent 70 Trump supporters to prison on made up 1512 C charges that were
Starting point is 00:42:28 later overturned by the Supreme Court. Ah, okay. So he was one of the J-6ers then, one of the J-6er judges. Plus he was one that on the FISA thing for President Trump, he was in on that too. And anyway, the guy is definitely out to get Trump and the January 16th, he gave one New York police officer that was there on January 6th, gave him two years in prison for misdemeanor crime, being in the Capitol, just parading around.
Starting point is 00:43:10 The fact that that judge, though, would have taken that...what was that measure, or what was that Enron-era law that they were using again? What was that called? Is it 1512C? Yeah, yeah, the 1512C. The obstruction of an official government function, etc. That's the one that you're talking about, right? The fact that the judge would even go along with it shows that that judge is also complicit with the agenda and is not
Starting point is 00:43:35 deserving of being paid attention to as for his court orders, okay? I don't know how we get him on the airplane, but he needs to spend a little time himself. If we had a proper Congress at this point, and we really don't have a proper Congress, there would be a lot of impeaching of judges. It's about the only way that you could really deal with them is to impeach them and remove them from office. He's political.
Starting point is 00:44:02 He's just out to get the Republicans and Trump and supporters. I'm sure if Joe Biden were doing it, he would not be worried about Trendy Arwa. Civil rights at that point in time. Okay, fair enough. Let me go to the next line. Good morning. This is Bill. Who's this? Hi, this is Tom. How are you doing, Bill? Hey, Tom. What's on your mind? I wanted to know if you heard about the new pharmaceutical that's out there. I'm afraid to ask, but go ahead. It's a new pill.
Starting point is 00:44:36 Yeah. Is that by Pfizer or FitzPhyzer or something? I don't know. It's 7 o'clock KMED HD1 Eagle Point Metford KBXG Grants Pass. I'm always afraid when somebody calls with a joke. Now you know why. Ready to upgrade your roof to a durable, sleek metal option? Look no further than Stephen Westfall Roofing Ink with our...
