I don't know where to begin today. I've got some great stories for you today that are incredible, just incredible. But I don't know where to start. So I might as well say, happy Earth Day. For those of you listening live, it is the 22nd of April, 2021. I didn't realize that it was a day that I'm supposed to celebrate. And I didn't know that it was a themed day. Did you know that this year marks the 51st anniversary of the annual celebrations?

And this year's theme for Earth Day is Restore the Earth. Wow. I mean, that really tugs at your heartstrings, doesn't it? I know. I know. It does. Now, there's plenty of places that are having virtual celebrations with some great. musical artists to celebrate Earth Day.

In fact, National Geographic is having a big thing virtually tonight, and you're going to have an appearance from a number of environmental activists, such as Dr. Jane Goodall. Huh? I know. I know. Now, how much do you want to celebrate? Plus, we have the release of What's Her Face's New documentary.

You know, Greta Thunberg. She has the new documentary coming out on PBS, a three-part documentary. I know, I know. A year to change the world. Oh, man. Now, if that's not a way to celebrate Earth Day, I don't know what is. Welcome to Chewing the Fat. I want to start with absenteeism, and it's good that the, uh, that the, uh, that the,

The police and the federal authorities in Italy are taking care of this horrible fraud of absenteeism going on. While there's this huge mob trial going on, and the only two that we've got to talk about, just, I mean, it's amazing. But first, let me tell you about a way you can help get a movie made. My Son Huntermovie.com is the place to go, and you can help get this movie made. So I'm reading an email from Phelam Mackler, who is going to get this movie done and producing my son, Hunter. In this email, he talks about, you know, how the film is going to expose the Biden corruption. Yes.

And that he has read Hunter Biden's memoir, Beautiful Things. And I have not read every word of Hunter's memoir. He has. And he claims that it's full of lies every bit of it. Even the cover. I believe him. So he went to Amazon to leave a review and got censored on the post from Amazon. Huh.

Huh. It does appear that Amazon is helping Hunter cover up for his lies, doesn't it? Yeah. I wonder why Big Tech is working so hard to protect the corrupt and really awful guy, Hunter Biden. I don't know. Do you? Uh, yeah. But this is exactly why.

the movie needs to be made. And we've got to get the truth out about the Biden family corruption to as many people as possible. So a lot of people don't even know this story. And they fall for the lies because they can't access the truth. And the gatekeepers, you know, the so-called mainstream media, big tech and the establishment, seem to be preventing this information from getting to the public. So that's why we need to get this movie made, My Son, And you can go to My Son Huntermovie.com and help get this movie made.

All right. That's right. You have a chance to help make this story heard around the world. The filmmakers behind the Gosnell movie have announced this brand new project. It's a feature film called My Son Hunter that's going to expose the Hunter Biden scandal. Go to my son hunter movie.com to learn more. The movie is going to tell it all. Hunter's Wild Escapades.

the contents of his laptop, his shady foreign business deals, even his ties to China. These independent filmmakers need your help. And if you've listened to this show, you know that we've talked to Phelan McLare and how passionate he is about this. And he needs your help. Hollywood doesn't want to fund this movie. It's too controversial. And it exposes the truth behind some of the most powerful people in politics.

And that's why they're bringing this film directly to the people to be funded by you. Your gift, $10, $50, $100, or more is going to help expose the most corrupt family in politics since...

Go to MySuntermovie.com right now and make your donation. MysonHuntermovie.com.

Okay. Absenteeism. So there's a guy in Italy who has alleged, has been alleged, to have stopped turning up to work for 15 years. Now, some of you would say, so? I mean, he gets to not show up for work. Yeah, well, the problem is he's still getting paid. So, you know, he's now being investigated for fraud, extortion, abuse of office.

He was reportedly paid for. 538,000 euros in total over the years. That doesn't seem like that much. 15 years? 538,000 euros? Which what equals about, let's see, we'll see, the U.S.? You've got $646,000 over 15 years? I mean, for not working, I guess that's really good, right?

So, according to this story, six other managers at the hospital are also being investigated in connection with the alleged absenteeism. Now, the police had a lengthy investigation into absenteeism and suspected fraud in the Italian public sector. I wonder if that had anything to do with the mob trial, because the mob trial is exposing a lot of stuff going on between the mob and the government. So it's possible. So this guy is actually a genius, right? I know. He was a civil servant assigned to a job in the hospital in 2005. That's when he stopped going to work. He said, you know what? I'm not doing that anymore. So he's also accused of threatening the manager at the time to stop her from filing disciplinary report against him. So, and she did. Now, so that he just continued to get paid. That manager retired. So his ongoing absence was never,

noticed by her successor or human resources. So after the one manager, the new manager, who must not be very good at his or her job, because we're paying people that aren't even there and you don't notice. Okay. That doesn't sound like a good manager, but that's just me. So for 15 years, this guy, and it doesn't say how long the person retired, how long it was since the person retired. But, I mean, the guy's not working for 15 years and he's still getting to pay.

check. That's a good gig. Genius. I mean, if you could do it. Because, I mean, I guess in court, he claims, right? I was still working. I just wasn't showing up. I was coronavirus. It was COVID. I was sick. It was a hospital. I was still doing my job. Well, good luck

proving that. So, I mean, I don't know, I want to be on this guy's side. He decided, look, I don't want, I don't like this job. I don't want to do the job. I'm not doing the job. Don't report me. Just continue to pay me. And they did.

And so then that person retires and it just is off in the cloud. We just don't realize that guy's there. That's pretty genius. That's pretty, pretty genius. Then we get into the mob trial. I mean, it's just Italy. I'm delving into my our Italian friends here on chewing the fat. So that trial, the maxi trial, is going on.

And they are expecting it to reconstruct an. integrated system through which prosecutors say mob clans and their associates targeted the $55 billion, I'm sorry, $55 billion in farm subsidies, the EU pays out annually. And this is just a little bit, a tip of the iceberg of what these guys were scamming from the system, right? I mean, the claim is not just the mob, right? We're talking about white collar accountants, politicians, government employees. I mean, they're talking about at least in this article,

they're talking about 10 million euros stolen in agricultural funds. I would, it's got to be more than that, right? I mean, if there's 55 billion in the EU farm subsidies and they're only getting 10 million of it, that seems like that's a sad mob group. But maybe, maybe that's just a side job. You know, maybe the 10 million and the farm subsidies is a way to try to justify, you know,

using the property for other things, you know, like drugs and extortion. Those kind of typical income streams from the mob, you know. So, I mean, it's just an amazing story. And these mobsters, I keep, every time I do this story about the Italian mob, I tell you to watch Z. 0-00, season one.

I don't know if they're coming out with another season on Amazon, but catch it. And you'll see just what happens in the Italian mob and what they're talking about in these stories of these mafia clans and the hierarchy, how it works.

And it's just amazing. So, I mean, I'm fascinated to see if we actually start arresting people other than hospital employees, appointed by the government for their absenteeism, because that had nothing to do with the mob trial, except that it gets people looking into, you know, the paperwork of these hospitals,

and that's never, never good. And they've had a couple of people, of course, turn the tide and are reporting, you know, I'll turn, I'll talk, I'll talk. I mean, they arrested all these guys, and then now they have people, of course, Oh, those turn state witness. Sure, no problem.

Will that help me? Yeah, it will. We'll make sure you don't go to jail for that long. So when they open the trial, okay, so it's, and this trial is going to, or proceedings are likely, they're going to take for, for what will seem like forever. You've got 97 defendants, 90 lawyers, a thousand witnesses. You got state's witnesses, these guys who, oh, yeah, I'll talk. If it'll save me, I'll talk. No problem. I know we're supposed to have this code of silence.

They never do. And so when it started, it took more than an hour for the roll call of defendants who are accused of crimes including fraud, false statements, extortion, creating fake companies for illegal gain, drug pushing, and stealing livestock. One of the investigating judges said, this is a whole thing is a colossal fraud. So, man, it'll be fun. It'll be fun to see who falls. It's not good for Italy, but it'll be fun to see who falls and see exactly how deep and if they allow it to be seen how deep it really goes. I mean, that gets you back to Hunter Biden and his deals with China and his deals with Ukraine and, you know, his dad, who is now the president, but was the vice president at the time, how deep these really go and how much will be allowed.

right so man if there was ever a movie that needed to be made it is my son hunter movie dot com i don't care if that's the title of the movie my son hunter movie dot com that movie needs to get made so help if you can i mean we have china the big story china launching an app for citizens to report anyone who has mistaken opinions i mean we can do that here in the u.s you have that stupid neighbor app that you can report things going on. Facebook allows you to complain and they're going to check into all complaints. Twitter does the same thing. You know, it's the same stupid thing.

I don't know. I mean, we are China now. Really, that's my, you know, the U.S., we are China now. It sure feels that way. I'll tell you that. And we talk about how, you know, these hackers are hacking into the U.S. they're behind another new hack targeting the U.S. government, private companies,

and countries' critical infrastructure. Let me ask you something. Does that headline mean that they've hacked pretty much everything? There's a new tech hacking targeting the U.S. government, private companies, and the country's critical infrastructure. Is there anything missing from that? We left Millie from Indiana off our hacking list,

which I doubt, by the way. But we'll just say that for the sake of argument that that happened. Are you kidding me? And we're talking about the other day they had the big China hack that they talked about that used pulse secure flaw. So they targeted the U.S. defense industry. Wouldn't that be the U.S. government? Or is that, is the defense separate from the U.S. government?

Oh, okay. So they targeted that separately from the U.S. government, private companies, and the country's critical infrastructure. That's it, though. That's it. We got all this going on. We have our own FBI saying that the shooting in 2017 at the baseball field from the Bernie Sanders supporter who was after the Republicans, that was just suicide by cop.

Oh. Okay. So according to lawmakers, they were told privately that the FBI said, yeah, that's a suicide by cop. We just, you know, that whole political motivation thing. Forget that. Oh. Okay.

Does anyone believe that? Anyone? Really? Really? We have the United States Postal Service is in trouble because they're running what's called a covert operation. but they're monitoring American's social media posts. Well, look, you post the stuff on social media.

I almost want to say that it's okay. I know. Don't look at me like that. But they're collecting, they have a program where they're tracking and collecting American social media posts. Well, Twitter's doing that now. So is Facebook. I mean, all these companies are doing it.

I don't know why it's, it seems, it's just because it's the Postal Service, right? The USPS, who, by the way. been, you know, clamoring to get on the board of governors. I always wanted to be the postmaster general. And then I realized really what you need to be on is the board of governors. But, you know, I needed to be a part of the USP postal service. And I'll help them gain some money, no problem. But now they have their own I cop or internet covert operations program.

Well, okay. So the work involves having analysts troll through social media sites to look for what the document describes as inflammatory. postings and then sharing that information across government agencies. I really don't, you know, the information is out there. I mean, all these government agencies are doing this, right? Isn't that what the NSA does? And the FBI definitely does it.

I mean, we had Snowden saying that, you know, the NSA was doing all of this as well, right? It was the big whistleblower. Anyway, I just find it, you know, it's a straightforward. thing that the government is doing, but don't remember that it's a federal offense to mess with the mail, right? And we know that all these cases now, one of the charges that they always get is that mail fraud, right? Because they're using the postal service to send illegal information or illegal goods and services. So it's just, I don't know that, I don't know that it's as big a deal as they're making it out to be.

It's just another government agent. You don't want government spying on you. And I say spying, but you're posting the information on the internet. So they're not spying on anything secret, right? They're looking at Facebook, parlor, telegram, all these social media sites. So you're the one posting it, and it's out there. So they're just going through it and looking at it. You think China and Russia and NSA and the FBI and the CIA is not doing that?

I don't answer that because you know damn well they're doing that. You know they are. So, yay! Yay! I do notice, though, that most of these government agencies that are looking into our social media posts go out of their way to go after, you know, individuals that are deemed right wing. They seem, and I hope that they look into the, you know, left wing as well, and they just don't report it because they don't want to be seen as racist.

It would make me feel safer. If you can, feel safe with the government agencies looking at everything you do, that they're looking at everyone and not just a tunnel vision on white folks. So there is that. I mean, look at what's happening with companies. Right? So we get news about Peloton employees undergoing anti-racist training that claims grandfathered in, blacklisted.

Those are all white supremacist terms. What? Are you kidding me? Are you freaking kidding me? And then we have. stories that, you know, we're supposed to be angry about. So really, we, there's things to be angry about. This, I don't think, is one of them.

So a CNN producer gets arrested by the police in Minneapolis. All right. She's there reporting. I don't know why she got arrested. It's a little strange having reporters arrested, but she does. Now, she's pissed because she is Asian American, but she, She was thrown on the ground and had her hand zip tied And the Minnesota State Patrol trooper

As they were arresting her asked her Do you speak English? And we're supposed to be pissed about that? No. I mean, I'd like to know how a reporter is getting arrested And why a reporter is getting arrested For being in the mainstay? Maybe it saved her life. I don't know. But I'm not mad that someone who is Asian American, Carolyn's son, is asked by the police, do you speak English? We have so many non-English-speaking

people in this country now that it doesn't surprise me that that's being asked. So what's the problem? Yes, I do. Okay, good. Now let me know why I'm being arrested, would you please? But anyway, I mean, race is, we talked about it before. It's divide, divide, divide. I mean, you have the former president of the HFPA. I mean, if you don't, if you're not a part of the HFPA, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, I don't know what you're doing with your life. But he's under fire because he sent out an email

with a story. A story in the email. It wasn't even him commenting. It was he sent out a story. about Black Lives Matter. And it was a story that was against What's Her Face? Patrice Colors

And it was, it took issue with colors involvement in TV production And a recent move to Los Angeles Topanga Canyon neighborhood And he sent this email with this story To, you know, apparently, you know, sent Hey, this is what? what we're up against. But now it's being viewed as he was sending this article as this is what he believes and he's a racist.

So he's out. Man, he was out anyway. He was already down as president. He's not even part. I mean, he's been eliminated from the HFPA because he sent an email with a story attached. It's amazing times. Amazing times.

Alright, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to drink before I say something that I shouldn't say. I mean, I really kind of should say it, but, you know, I'll psychically say it. And then, you know, in my mind, I've said it. Yeah, that's what systemic racism is, Jeff. That's the problem. That's why, even if you don't say it,

we heard what's her face from the talk say it. It's not about the actual words. It's about how you react. Oh, okay. So there's no way getting around it. No way getting around it. If you're white, you're racist. Period.

And if you're a police officer, you're bad. Period. I would not, we've said it before on the show. I would not want to be a police officer. I mean, I thought that just when you think you know I don't think

it can get much worse it looks like we're starting to make the turn around nope nope and then we have an administration in this country

that hates America I don't and it's evident every single day that they hate America and it pisses me off and they don't

pretend anymore when they do a little but it just drives me crazy. And we, it doesn't. All right. Hey, did you know it is Earth Day? It is Earth Day.

It is good. And, you know, we have, we have these stories now that talk about, you know, these great areas to live in the U.S. And we know some of the most sustainable cities. Some of the most sustainable cities. It's so good. So this site, lawn starter, I love lawn starter, ranked the most sustainable cities by comparing 200 of the largest U.S. cities across 24 key sustainability indicators. Among the metrics, they looked at the number of incentives and policies supporting renewables and energy, efficiency, number of zero energy buildings, share of green commuters, prevalence of community-supported agriculture. So those top four things alone,

mean, you're looking at big cities. I mean, the number of incentives and policy supporting renewables and energy efficiency. Okay. Number of zero energy buildings. Share of green commuters. Prevalence of community supported agriculture. You know, the guy driving the truck back and forth to the barn and out to the field is not, you know, green commuting. Just, anyway, we have to see.

So let's see the, the, top cities and what they are for the most sustainable cities. Oh, it's so good. And it's going to come as a surprise. Well, we can do the top two. I mean, they rank 200 cities, right? The worst city. The bottom 10. Let's do the bottom 10 before I tell you at the top. So the worst sustainable cities, Pembroke Pines, Florida is the worst 200. Miramar, Florida. Peora, Arizona, Cape Coral, Florida, Port St. Lucie, Florida. Wow. I mean, Florida, not looking good on this bottom list of sustainable cities. Enterprise Nevada. Bataar, Louisiana, Sunrise Manor, Nevada, Highley of Florida, Pasadena, Texas,

Oloff, Kansas, Midland, Texas? Come on. Midland, Texas. That city is, well, I mean, it's horrible. that's not the worst. That's where we get our evil oil and gas and power from. How dare a city actually be created to give us power? It's amazing. And plus, Midland, Texas, the Twin City, Midland, Michigan is, you know, homes of Dow Chemical, those evil bastards. Creating things that we use every day. I hate them.

Hate them. So, wow. You've got, I mean, Florida, Hylia, Port St. Lucie, Cape Coral. Miramar, Pembroke Prime, not looking good in the old renewable cities. Sorry about that. I'm sorry, sustainable cities. What am I thinking? Renewable. It's just silly. All right, so the top 10 of

sustainable cities, according to Lawn Starter. Number 10. Seattle, Washington. Yeah, man, do you want to be there? Salt Lake City, Utah. Beautiful city. I do love Salt Lake, actually. and wow, and it's the number one of the sustainable cities. That's amazing. Oakland, California is number eight. Man, don't you want to live in Oakland, California?

I mean, all the good reports you hear about Oakland, California. It's one of the top sustainable cities. San Diego, California. I do. San Diego is beautiful. But I guess California, I mean, I love California, but are we, do you really want to live there? Really? In today's world?

I don't know. Rochester, New York. Number six. Baltimore, Maryland. Man, do you want to live in Baltimore, Maryland, coming in at number five. Washington, D.C., coming in at number four. Cities, are we serious?

Come on now. And number 11, that I didn't even mention is Philadelphia. So, I mean, Philadelphia, Seattle, Oakland, Baltimore, Baltimore, Washington, D.C. Number three, Sacramento, California. All right. Number two in the highest ranking sustainable cities list, Boston, Massachusetts. And coming in at number one of the highest sustainable city, according to lawn starter, San Francisco, California.

Well, yeah, I mean, I guess that's almost sustainable and renewable, right? Because there's so much crap on the sidewalk that, you know, actual crap on the sidewalk that it's got to be sustainable. I mean, in the top 11, you've got maybe, well, you've got Salt Lake City, which is Salt Lake City, San Diego, although that's still California.

And Boston, maybe. You know, still worth living in? Maybe. That's, you know. But the rest, I've never been to Rochester, New York, either. And I don't know anything about Rochester.

So, I mean, we hear news stories from time to time about Rochester, but I don't know anything about the city. But Philadelphia, Seattle, Oakland, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., Boston, San Francisco. Again, Boston is, you know, possible. But San Francisco, do thank you. I don't thank you. And San Francisco's beautiful. It's just, I'm not, I'm not living there. Not doing it. I would love to live in California. Not there. But hey, they're number one on the most. sustainable city. Yay!

Now, according to Launch starter here, the most incentives and policies supporting renewables and energy efficiency, you're looking at Baltimore. Well, I mean, they've got so many buildings

that nobody lives in anymore. They're just empty, no wonder. New York. Yeah. Buffalo. All right. Rochester. Okay, so tied at number three. You've got one, two, three, four cities. Four cities tied. Tied at number three. Buffalo, Rochester, Yonkers, and Syracuse.

I mean, I don't necessarily think about living in those cities. Those top cities, Baltimore, New York, Buffalo, Rochester, Yonkers, and Syracuse? I mean, I guess they're fine cities. I don't want to live there anymore. and the bottom, the bottom cities that have the fewest incentives and policies supporting renewables and energy efficiency, these cities I kind of want to live in. The worst city, which is pretty incredible. That is the worst city.

Well, it's tied. The bottom one, two, three, four, five. The bottom five cities are all tied for the same. So, but they put them in order here. So I'm going to go by their order. According to them, they're tied. But they didn't. say, you know, that they were tied. They just said, you know, here you go. They're all tied.

Orlando. You know, I could live in Florida. Jackson, Mississippi. I've never, I've been through there. I don't know that I've ever, I can't tell you much about Jackson, Mississippi. Lincoln, Nebraska. I mean, it's Nebraska. It's okay. I've been out there. I told you the story of when my oldest son was being recruited by the University of Nebraska. And he flew in because my stepdad, his grandfather, was from, you know, the Broken Bow, Nebraska. The far western end went to the University of Nebraska and Lincoln. And he was saying, you know, that there's nothing out there.

And he's driving from the airport to Lincoln. And he calls me and he says, Grandpa was right. There's nothing out here. I mean, that's Nebraska. And then it's Baton Rouge, Louisiana. and Boise, Idaho. I love Boise, Idaho. Boise, Idaho is beautiful.

It makes me even want to live there more than it's the bottom of the list of renewable incentives. But, you know, most zero energy buildings. Yeah, I don't care. Fewest zero energy buildings. Oh, that's why Boise. Boise has the, Boisey's at the bottom of the list for fewest zero energy buildings. Yeah, maybe because it's cold there.

Milwaukee, Wisconsin, same thing. Oh, they're all tied. Oh, man. Newark, New Jersey. Man, I almost lived in Newark at one point in my life. I am so glad I didn't. I used to have to, I mean, I stopped there every day on the train station. And I walked through Newark.

In fact, I went to, I visited a building in Newark, thinking about apartment. Because I got an apartment in Weehawken right there across from Manhattan on I was right there at the entrance of the tunnel heading into Manhattan. And at that time, my wife and kids were going to go back to Florida. We had a place in Pennsylvania. So I figured for the summer, I'll move into New Jersey and just be a closer ride into the city every day. And, you know, there was no point to me having a big place in Pennsylvania at the time for the summer. And so I moved and I ended up moving to a, you know, little apartment in Weehawking right there.

and we didn't spend a whole bunch of time there actually for that summer, but I had the place there. And I loved the guy that owned the building. Anyway, the whole other story. But as I was looking for different places, I went to an apartment in Newark, New Jersey. And I got off the train. And I got off at Newark at the,

at the big train station. And then you hop another train into, go deeper into Newark itself. And I got off and I started walking through the neighborhoods. And I come up to one building. and I say, hey, you know, I'm looking for this particular building and it's, you know, a couple blocks over. And the guy is kind of like, ooh, I don't think you want to live here. I was like, why not?

And he's, you're white. I was like, I don't care. You know, I don't care. So I walk over the next couple blocks and I go to the building. And I look at that, take a tour of the apartment. And it's, you know, it's up on the, I don't know, the eighth or ninth floor, whatever it was. And it was a pretty good price, fair price for the apartment. And then, you know, I'm looking out the window with the lady who was, you know, the apartment building manager.

And I'm looking at their fenced-in parking lot. And like, so, you know, I get one spot or two or visiting spots. And she was like, ooh, those are extra. If you are going to park there, you have to pay extra other than your rent. I'm like, I know, but that's part of the building. Yeah, we charge extra for the parking space. Now, you can park outside of the fenced-in area. and you can park along the street there.

And what time do you leave in the morning? I'm usually going early like that. Yeah, you might be fine. We get a lot of break-ins. A lot of cars damaged along those parkingways. But if you leave early and you're home late, you probably should be fine. So if I leave, if I come home late and I leave early,

my car should be okay. Yeah. But, you know, if you wanted to park in the parking lot, you know, it's going to cost you a lot more extra to live there because that's locked and gated and guarded. Oh, all right. Oh, thank you. Thank you so much.

No problem. I'll let you know if I'm going to give this place. And then I left and I walked through the neighborhood again. And the schools were getting out and I'm walking through the neighborhoods. And the neighborhood didn't seem, and this could have been just me, just could have been me with my systemic racism built in, didn't seem to be that happy with a white guy walking through the neighborhood. I know. I understand. But I can understand why.

No, I'm not saying that either. In my mind, I just said something. So it's all yours to figure out what I said.

It's the best cities for marijuana lovers. I mean, what am I thinking? It's not the most stone city. So, the number one most relaxed

So, I mean, that makes Sunnyvale, California, the most relaxed city in America, according to Lawn Starter.com. I mean, they don't know what lawn starter. I mean, they just, they mow your lawns, right? They do yard work for you. They have lawn care, lawn mowing, finds lawn care near me, landscaping grass types.

If they want to start coming and taking care of my yard work and take care of my lawn care, I'm all for it.

Okay? I will read every stupid study they have. No, no, this is a joke. I mean, that's just, I just wouldn't do it. So best things for urban gardening, but I can't do any more of these. Come on. Best cities for water quality. I mean, the worst has got to be Flint, right?

I mean, the lowest has got to be Flint. It has to be. Water quality. Does it have the list? Where's the big list of water quality? Let's see where we're at 200 entries. And the worst city is Bridgeport, Connecticut. What?

Come on. Where's Flint? Flint's like they were, people were sick from Flint, man. Where is Flint, Michigan? It's not even in the bottom. Are you kidding me? Fort Worth, Texas? Fort Worth, Texas is 182?

For water quality? Oh, come on now. I mean, the water that I get out of the bottles that I buy are fine. The water that I put in the five-gallon jug and drink out of my water cooler is fine. Dallas is 136. We are not doing well in water quality here at DFW. What is going on? Where is Flint, Michigan on this list?

I cannot believe that Fort Worth, Texas and Dallas, Texas are, lower than Flint, Michigan? No, I don't believe it. Wait a minute. Maybe because they don't do lawn care and Flint, so they're not on the list? That's possible. They didn't have lawn care mentioned for 200 cities. St. Petersburg, Florida, pretty good, 28th, whatever.

Okay, but there's no Flint on this list. No Flint. No Flint. Maybe they don't even, I mean, Flint. That just goes without saying, okay. Goes without saying, no problem. Lowest increase in quality of violation. Yeah, Flint is not on the way.

They don't care about Flint, Michigan. Lawn Starter.com, you bastards. What is wrong with Flint? Okay. Whatever. I mean, they have Akron, Ohio on their list. They don't have Flint, Michigan. Okay.

All right, I see how you are. Fine. You know what? We're done with you. All right? We're done. We're done. You want to know how much this administration hates America?

I'll just throw it out there I said earlier in the show it drives me insane how much they hate America and they don't even try to hide it anymore well this administration now is planning to give a historic Coast Guard cutter

which oversaw the largest maritime rescue in world history 9-11 to Indonesia yeah we're just going to give it to them that's fine ah don't worry about it yeah it had a little history for the U.S and you know

saved a bunch of people in Manhattan during the at 9-11 but we don't care you know we're going to give it to I mean it says here the story they're going to give it to Indonesia I mean we just had a deal right where we sent the coast card over there

we were supposed to have a deal wasn't it Indonesia I got to see now okay so we sent liaisons to Canabara Singapore Guam and we sent them to the South China Sea as well. So, I mean, that's close to Indonesia, right? It doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter. Gosh darn it. We're giving away a piece of American history. I mean, I know that now, you know, that's being definitely petitioned now to not let this happen. But this is ridiculous. And this is just another way. that they don't like America. They don't care.

I don't care about America, and it pisses me off. And just to be clear, when 500,000 people needed to be evacuated from Lower Manhattan on September 11th, 2001, this U.S. Coast Guard cutter rushed to New York Harbor from its home port in Sandy Hook, New Jersey, and took over as the unseen commander,

until the Coast Guard cutter, Tacoma, arrived later that night. Now, they, They aren't giving it to Indonesia. They're in talks of selling the Coast Guard Cutter to Indonesia. Instead of donating it to a museum. And people who have, you know, set up nonprofit organizations for the 9-11 memorial, want to turn it into a museum. And they have it already set up to go to Tampa and just become a museum there.

The historical society and the 9-11 historical people all want to. cover all the costs and dock it in Tampa Bay as a learning experience, a memorial, a museum, an education center. Nope. You know what? We're just, who cares? Who cares? It's just another Coast Guard ship.

Eh, eh. So, get over it. I mean, just, I've already stated how angry it makes me. Yeah. So I'll leave you. today with a fact. And it's a phobia fact for the office, just so you can take it with you and you can say,

hey, you know, I hate to have you go a whole show without learning something. So here's a fun fact from at fact. A phobia a phobophobia. That's what it's called the phobophobia. I don't make sure you know it's correct.

A phobophobia. P-H-O-B-O. P-H-O-B-I-A, phobophobia is the fear of having a phobia. Take that knowledge with you as you go throughout your life. Fobophobia is the fear of having a phobia. I know. You're welcome.
