Starting point is 00:01:21 This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. Welcome to the broadcast on the Blaze Radio. Network. Busy week. Busy week for just about everyone. Of course, you have the debacle that is the health care bill. Most of the articles are how bad was Friday's defeat of the American Health Care Act in the House of Representatives?
Starting point is 00:02:02 Bad! Bad! It was the first major piece of legislation pushed by the White House and the Republicans controlled Congress. It should be wonderful, but in spite of all of it, Mr. Trump, Mr. Ryan, and the Republicans could not get the job done. Okay. That is true. And there are some people who were all wound up. We could go through clip after clip.
Starting point is 00:02:37 We could go through Paul Ryan's little hissy-fit meltdown. And I'm going to read you an open letter to Congress that I found last night from the Tea Party. You know, the Tea Party's front page, the USSA News. But I think my favorite piece of audio was Congressman John Lewis, who, I mean, how great is. Is he been in office since 87? Maybe time John to think about, you don't have to retire, just don't do this job. It might be time.
Starting point is 00:03:29 Now, you know that John has a tough time sometimes enunciating, worse than me. And he was extra special on the floor yesterday. I rise to oppose this bill. As elected representatives, we have a mission, an obligation, and a mandate to fight for each and every American. I ask you, Mr. Speaker, who would stand for the American people, who will speak up for those who have been left out and left behind. He is reading. Mr. Speaker, I've said it time and time again.
Starting point is 00:04:17 health care is a right for a wealthy fuel. For what does it profit this body to pass this bill and lose our soul? This bill is a shame. It is a disgrace. Mr. Speaker, today my heart break for the disabled, for women, for senior and working families. My heart ate for those who are living Paycheck to paycheck. My heart mourn for innocent little children
Starting point is 00:05:01 whose very lives depend on if their family can pay the bills. This is the right and wrong of it. This is the heart and soul of the matter. We cannot abandon our principles. Mr. Speaker, we cannot forget our values. have fought too hard and too long to back down now
Starting point is 00:05:25 I will fight any bill to turn the clock back to a darker time I will fight every single attempt to turn a deaf ear, a blind eye and a cold shoulder to the sick to our seniors and to working families
Starting point is 00:05:44 Mr. Speaker, I will fight every day, every hour, every minute and every second I pose this bill with every breath and every bone in my body. You know, despite the fact that John and I think this bill is ridiculous for different reasons, you know, he's fun to listen to. And while we agree on the one thing, the rest of it, John, that's time. It's time. Go back to Georgia.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Relax. Put your feet up. In the open letter, they wanted the House, we gave them the House. They wanted the Senate, we gave them the Senate. They wanted the White House. We gave them the White House. Now it's time for us to get something in return.
Starting point is 00:06:38 Yeah, that'd be nice. Repeal Obamacare. I'm pretty sure that's it. There's no replacement needed. The repeal and replace was just kind of added and everybody went, wait, I thought we were just going to repeal it.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Oh yeah, we are. And replace. So stop thinking about your job or Trump's legacy. Not even been in office 100 days yet. We're still worried about the legacy of Donald Trump. All your little special favors. How about we think about the country first?
Starting point is 00:07:18 I know. You've got one job. How about we do it? Why in the world would we want an Obamacare replacement when the government can't really do anything efficiently? And there's a list of things here that they do efficiently. The DMV. Wait.
Starting point is 00:07:50 Post office. The Veterans Administration. No, the courts. Oh, they're the IRS. Yeah. Yeah. We want to put Obamacare on that list. We want Obamacare gone.
Starting point is 00:08:06 I don't care if you call it Trump care, Ryan care, Republican care, conservative care, conserv care, whatever you call it, get rid of it. The free market will solve your insurance problem. Okay? Period. So repeal Obamacare. That's what we put you in for. You told us you would.
Starting point is 00:08:39 Now do it. It ain't that hard. Also on Friday, today's Saturday, right? So was yesterday. Friday already seems like a year away. President Trump approved the TransCanada Corps Keystone XL Pipeline. Yay! The approval, of course, reverses decision by former
Starting point is 00:09:05 President Barack Obama to reject the project. Company still needs some financing. Of course. We still need to, you know, we still got a few permits to get. There's a couple pesky little legal challenges. Don't worry about that. Put that damn pipeline in. TransCanada will finally be allowed to complete this long overdue project with efficiency and with speed, President Trump said in the Oval Office.
Starting point is 00:09:32 He had TransCanada Chief Executive Officer Russell Gurling when in the Oval with him and turned and said, when construction going to start? Well, we've got some work to do in Nebraska to get our permits there. So instead of, I mean, come on. When are we going to start? As soon as we can, Mr. President.
Starting point is 00:09:55 As soon as we can. Let's get the people happy. No, we got some of a, we got some, man, we got to, I tell you, Don, I know we're in the Oval and we're just talking to the American people here for your little press conference here, but man, we've got some permits in Nebraska, we've got to take care of. Stop it.
Starting point is 00:10:12 So, of course, Trump. Nebraska. I'll call Nebraska. Thank you, Mr. President. We appreciate it. Thank you. So, like, yeah, sighting news for the Keystone pipeline. And then we had the Supreme Court hearings for Gorsuch.
Starting point is 00:10:32 The vote to either reject or accept him on the Supreme Court should probably take place. I don't know. Sometime next year. Heaven forbid, we get anything. It's all we've got another schedule for. Sometime next week, if we can squeeze it in. I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:10:53 I know we've been on TV the last three or four days. We wouldn't have time to vote. This is a special meeting. We've got to put this all out there when we all come together. I'll try to make that happen in another, I don't know, six or seven months. Now, we're busy, busy, busy, busy, busy, busy up here on the hill. And then we've got the surveillance spy gate. Raise your hand if you care.
Starting point is 00:11:17 Yeah, that's what I thought. Really, the intelligence community incidentally collected information about the U.S. citizens involved in the Trump transition. That's what Nunez told the reporters on Wednesday morning. Now you can read more stories about how it was possible conspiracy theory as he was given a call in his Uber and ran away in secret for hours. No one knew where he was.
Starting point is 00:11:43 and he came out and said, yeah, you know, Trump was being surveilled. We've got that information. I've got a special witness. Okay. Great. Who cares? And there were some tremendous pictures of President Trump in a semi in his big trucks. His eye heart truck pins.
Starting point is 00:12:08 He's blowing the semi horn. I mean, it's one thing for me to laugh and joke and get a call from a guy driving a semi and wanting to blow his horn. you know, and having the kids drive down the interstate and you drive by the semis and you have them lift their hands up and down, like, hey, blow your horn, blow your horn, and most of them do. Most of the truckers are pretty cool, and they blow the horn for the kids. They look at me like, what the hell are you doing that for?
Starting point is 00:12:33 But the kids, they do. But to see Donald Trump pretending he's a truck driver, it's almost as much fun as watching him pretend he's the president of the United States. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. 2017 is going to be a volatile economic year. We may see politicians throughout the world attempting to control central bank policies.

Starting point is 00:15:05 Mr. Speaker, we must do better. Vote no on this bill. We got it, John. Time has expired. Yes, your time has expired, John. Your time has expired. I don't know why I can't get enough of John Lewis. I just can't.

Welcome to the broadcast on the Blaze Radio Network. 888-903. 33-93 is the phone number if you want to participate. You can follow me on Twitter at Jeff EMRA. Instagram at Jeff EMRA and Facebook, Jeff Fisher Radio. I'm a little disappointed.
Starting point is 00:15:42 I don't know if the show that precedes this one. It's that guy's name again. Oh, yeah, I hope Elko. Did he mention, I mean, he probably wanted to hide the fact that, you know, his Twitter account got hacked yesterday? I mean, that was some pretty graphic tweets in his Twitter account being hacked. And so, seriously, it was seriously graphic, and I feel bad for him because those are only things that I would tweet. No, I'm just joking. I'm just joking.
Starting point is 00:16:24 Nobody wants that to happen, especially Mike. Ooh. And just for the record, it was everything I had not to click on those links. Everything I had. I came close more than once just to say, I wonder if it's actually the link. But I didn't do it. because I know that that would
Starting point is 00:16:53 probably mean then then it would hack into my account and I didn't want that to happen. So for a lifetime now, you know, I've been 800 pounds, pretty much all my life. I was born at 762 pounds. I know, it was a little known fact. So I wasn't 800 pounds at birth,
Starting point is 00:17:15 but after that, 800 pounds forever. And I've had to shop, I went through the struggles of shopping in the husky section. The horror of shopping in the husky section. The horrors of shopping at the fat and short, talls of the big and tall, fat, whatever stores that charge you a million dollars for a pair of pants. That's because there's a million dollars worth of material in the pants, Jeff. That's not the point.
Starting point is 00:17:51 So we get a story here. that people who are severely overweight are going to get charged more for pedicures and manicures. And they're a little mad. A sign at the Memphis Salon. If you're overweight, pedicures are going to be $45 bucks. We're charging you more than anybody else, okay? Fat feet get charged more. Now, apparently, women are upset about that.
Starting point is 00:18:31 And specifically, I guess, overweight women are upset about that. Now, the owner says, hey, that's not my sign. I don't know where that sign came from. I would say, own up to it. Yes, that is my sign. Now, do the overweight women get pissed at the fat lady stores? for getting charged more money for a dress? I mean, obviously we all get,
Starting point is 00:19:01 man, I can't believe I've got to pay $8,000 for a pair of pants. Maybe if it wasn't a size 80, but, I mean, why shouldn't the pedicurus look down and go, ooh, ooh, those are a little bit nasty. You'll mess around with those fat feet? No, thank you. I'm charging you more. It's just the fact.
Starting point is 00:19:31 of life. Okay? So those of you that are upset at the nail salon place, I would say that tough. The sign is now down. You can breathe easy. And his current prices at the store are just the same as everybody's. And the only thing that's cheaper is the extra.
Starting point is 00:20:01 extra predicure for men because they don't come to the salon as often. So you men out there that want your little pedicure, now's the time because it's cheap. You can get that extra predicateure for just an extra five bucks. But I'm saying if you are, now the owner, I just saw this there talking about him, taking down the sign, but at the end it says, I've decided to. to just not service someone that's overweight. So he took down the sign, but, no, you're overweight. No, we're not going to service you.
Starting point is 00:20:48 He said it's difficult for technicians to give them pedicures, and he's had chairs broken twice in the past. So why don't you just spend a couple extra bucks on a couple of fat chairs? Okay. America is fat. It's my motto. It's the way we live. Look around.
Starting point is 00:21:08 Walk around. Okay, walk around. And take a look. America is overweight. So if you want to get those bad, you can't. Now you've got to find the fat people have to find a new place. That's just not right. I'd be more mad at that.
Starting point is 00:21:26 Then getting charged an extra five bucks for, that's $20, Jeff, an extra $20 because we're fat. We got fat. feed. This is the Jeff Fisher show. Only on the Blaze Radio Network. The Jeff Fisher Show is on. Happy Saturday.
Starting point is 00:22:15 Welcome to the broadcast. 888-90333 is the phone number. This is the Jeff Fisher Radio Show on the Blaze Radio Network. Thanks to you. The most listened to weekly broadcast on the Blaze Radio Network. Thank you very much. I appreciate it. And it means a lot to us here at the Blaze Radio Network.
Starting point is 00:22:39 Now, I want to read you a little new Pew survey. 35% of the public support the wall. 62% opposed. There's a new Pew survey. Democrats overwhelmingly oppose the wall, 89%. Republicans overwhelmingly support the wall, 74%. Republicans who live closer to the border are less likely to support the wall. Support among people who live less than 350 miles away from the border is only 63%.
Starting point is 00:23:26 Support among people who live at least 350 miles away from the border, 76%. Just an interesting little survey. It's nothing to do with nothing. In Rockville, Maryland, officials say that 18-year-old Henry Sanchez-Milan and 17-year-old Jose Montano forced a teenage girl into the boys' bathroom where they brutally raped her.
Starting point is 00:24:01 Did you know that Sanchez and Milan and Montano are illegal immigrants who had once been detained by immigration and customs enforcement, but were released into the U.S. where they flew to Maryland to attend school as freshmen. And yes, of course, ICE was aware. Now, Montgomery County Superintendent Dr. Jack Smith,
Starting point is 00:24:23 it may be time for Montgomery County Superintendent Dr. Jack Smith to join Congressman John Lewis, and they don't have to retire. They should just go away. He has accused, outraged parents of xenophobia and racism over their anger to the alleged rape. Well, first of all, it's not an alleged rape. It's a rape, doc.
Starting point is 00:24:49 We don't believe the 14-year-old girl. It must have been consensual. Smith reportedly said that too many have crossed the line with their calls and their emails. Is that right? Dr. Jack Smith, Montgomery. County Superintendent. How about you help out the state a little bit?
Starting point is 00:25:16 Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Cooperation? I don't believe in that. No. Not only have you refused to provide any information to the state, you've refused to provide information to the State Board of Education after they specifically requested the information. I'll give you that you say, well, I've got to have a specific request.
Starting point is 00:25:41 I can't just give up that information. Those are the rules. Oh, okay. So we'll give you a specific, well, man, I wish I could find that stuff to give to you, but I can't, what did I do? His response to the parents and the public of Montgomery County, of which he is the superintendent, Dr. Jack Smith, While I know this tragic incident has become part of a national political debate,
Starting point is 00:26:20 and it's also now a huge part of this young girl's life who was taken into the bathroom, doors locked by illegals, and raped. And I like brutally raped. I know there's actually a difference, but raped is raped. It's brutal. No, what's not, Jeff? Some are worse. Rape.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Still bad. No matter what. No matter how nice it is. Well, he said, thank you. Oh, okay. Then it's not a brutal rape. While I know this tragic incident has become part of a national political debate,
Starting point is 00:27:06 I want to remind community members that the lives of real students have been forever affected. Thank you. Send it an email, Hey, while many have chosen to engage civilly in conversation. Far too many
Starting point is 00:27:23 have crossed the line with racist, xenophobic calls and emails. Montgomery County Police is working with other law enforcement to identify those who are making threats toward our students and schools. This behavior will not be tolerated in our
Starting point is 00:27:45 community. Hey listen, we know you're upset, community about you know the brutal rape oh did I just say brutal? Oh my gosh it was didn't I? The brutal rape of a 14 year old girl by these two illegal
Starting point is 00:28:00 immigrants and everybody knew were here illegally in the country but we said hey bring them to Maryland they can go to school here I know they're all wound up about that but how dare they get angry
Starting point is 00:28:17 do not get angry Do not get angry And instead of try to calm them down You just want to investigate them Screw you Oh Will I be investigated Dr. Jack Smith
Starting point is 00:28:29 For my hatred Now I'm sure some people Did go way over the line When they were upset For the safety of their children And their other family members I'm sure they did But instead of trying to say
Starting point is 00:28:49 hey, let's calm down a little bit. I know this is bad, blah, blah, blah. You know what I'm saying. Doc. You're going to call them out and have them investigated. Dr. Jack Smith, you? John Lewis, there's quite a few of you now. In fact, maybe we'll just do that list.
Starting point is 00:29:15 We'll make a list of people that, you know, they don't necessarily need to retire, but they do need to just go away. We've got the first two on the list right now. Congressman John Lewis, Montgomery County Superintendent, Dr. Jack Smith. You don't have to retire. You just have to go away. Okay? Thank you.
Starting point is 00:29:43 Appreciate it. Okay, so I was thinking, got me thinking. I was reminded during the bottom of the hour break as we went into the bottom break talking about overweight pedicures and people getting pissed and they were upset at the guy for charging more well now he's not only not going to charge more
Starting point is 00:30:06 he's just not going to service fat people he's got a couple of chairs broken didn't have the fat guy chair very disappointing And, you know, as a person who may or may not have broken a chair from time to time, some chairs just aren't made right. Okay? They just aren't made right.
Starting point is 00:30:36 So it wouldn't matter whether you weighed 100 pounds or 800 pounds. The chair would still break. That's all I'm saying. However, it got me thinking, you know, last week or the week before we were, talking about creating a mu-moo line, the Jeffie Mummoo line. And, you know, I've kind of been in, you know, I've got it in the development stages now. And we're, you know, creating our own, our own look, you know, our own moo-mo look.
Starting point is 00:31:14 And look, and look, they're not, don't, they're not just for women. So don't think that this is all just a female. thing. Because as an overweight male, plenty of times you just want to wear a moo-moo. I mean, there's no question. You just want to get home,
Starting point is 00:31:37 get out of the fat guy pants, throw on the mu-moo and relax. Just, you know, binge on Netflix. I understand. I got it. Okay. So perhaps we need to just come up with maybe, now this was, my moo-moo line
Starting point is 00:31:53 was without any brick-and-mortar stores, And the brick and mortar stars are going away fast and furious. I mean, the American retail mall is darn near history. I mean, while malls are ghost towns as well, I mean, department store chains, Macy's, J.C. Penny, Sears, Abercrombie and Fitch, B.C.B.G. And they're all closing stores, man. Their brick and mortar stores are going away. I mean, you go to malls now, man, and it's, I wasn't there a... I mean, it's ghost town, man.
Starting point is 00:32:39 So I'm telling you, they're going to start using the malls for my idea. And when they do, you can say, you heard it here first. Dron racing. Empty malls are going to be for the drone racings. ESPN already inked the deal. To broadcast drone racings, you're going to have mall drone races across America. You're welcome. So maybe a brick and mortar store for the moo-moo chain might not be that great of an idea.
Starting point is 00:33:07 But if we do open, maybe we just have one, you know, one, one heart of the Moomoo operation. The rest is all online. But we have one store that is the heart of the Moomu operation. And in that store, we provide fat people, pedicures, manicures. We have special fat people chairs. And it's, you know, a flat rate. I said flat, not fat. It's a fat rate.
Starting point is 00:33:41 You know what I'm talking about. So everybody gets charged the same. And maybe if you buy, you know, I don't know, maybe we come up with a deal. You buy five boo-moos, you get a pedicure-free. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network. Jeff Fisher. Hey, that's me on the Blaze Radio Network.
Starting point is 00:34:23 88890333 is the phone number Steve has opted to use that phone number and call the broadcast. Hello Steve. Hi, Jeffrey. I want to thank you for reading my open letter at least parts of it this morning. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yes, sir. Happy to do it. It's absolutely 100% correct.
Starting point is 00:34:47 Yeah, we voted them in for the last, what, six or eight years. They had one job. Just get rid of it. Nobody asked for a replacement. Thank you. Well, and they changed, I mean, that, I don't know, actually, it'd be funny to see, go back and see when they actually started, when they threw in replace. Because it was repeal and then replace. Yeah, that was somewhere along the campaign.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Yeah, yes, it was. Yes, it was. It was repeal, repeal, repeal, and replace. Yeah, one of the GOP did, like a Paul Ryan type. And nobody wanted replacement. the free market works perfectly fine. Like, I don't have insurance, but my doctor pay 50 bucks a month, unlimited visits for $10, then all I need is catastrophic.
Starting point is 00:35:32 That's the free market already doing it. So I don't know why government needs to be in there controlling our health care. They're terrible at everything they do. I mean, I gave you a list on the letter. Yes, you did. And everyone on the list works about as perfectly as ObamaCare has been working. Right. I mean, look at the VA. There's your preview.
Starting point is 00:35:53 You want that? No, I don't care how good they claim it to be. Just leave us alone. Get out of our way. And everyone has their – look. Everyone has their stories of good from the VA and their stories of good from Obamacare. But the overall picture is bad. So, I mean, let's move on. Let's move on.
Starting point is 00:36:14 And if they think it's so good, Trump care or Rino Care, whatever you want to call it, mandate that the GOP and the rest of Congress sign up for it, and they have to use it. Yeah, that would help them come up with a bill that would actually help the American people. Yeah, let them meet their own dog food. Yeah, no kidding. Can I give a plug out to that letter? Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:36:34 Sure. If you want to see that letter, it's called Repeal Do Not Replace. It's on USSA News.com. The Tea Party's front page. Oh, I love your show, Jeffrey. Thanks. Thank you very much, Steve. I appreciate it.
Starting point is 00:36:46 Take care. I just, as a matter of fact, I just retweeted the, you know, USAA news. So if you go to at Jeffie MRA, you can see the link and also follow them if you so desire. News, great news. Do I have time for some good news?
Starting point is 00:37:03 I mean, this is actually good news, and it's good news for only of not everyone, really, is it good news, but it's good news for me. Just a reminder that the NFL no one has signed Colin Kaepernick yet. So,
Starting point is 00:37:19 man, does that stand? Huh? Sorry to hear that. Sorry to hear that. I'm sure you'll think it's something different, Colin, but you're not that good. This show, a group of 23 strangers, scheduled in Scotland Wilderness. They were out there for 12 months. Their television reality show contestants.
Starting point is 00:37:47 The Scotland Wilderness, 12 months, no technology, no modern tools. 23 strangers. Well, they ended their 12 months out of the secluded Scotland wilderness. Yeah, a TV show was canceled about six months ago. They've been stuck in this stupid house for 12 months. The show hasn't even been on for six months. Yeah, we just didn't think about what, you know?
