Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to the Jeff Fisher Show. I mean, there's plenty of crime to talk about. And some fascinating, some fascinating attempts at what could be considered huge criminal activity. And then I look up two stories that I'm looking at the Marco Rubio story that was printed yesterday as the New York Times talks about his 17 tickets. and his wife has got tickets and he's got tickets he's never lost his license but he's paid off and paid the fine and done this. Really, New York Times?
Starting point is 00:00:42 Is that the best you got? Is that all you could find? Michael Rubio and his wife have driving violations? Oh, no. The horror. He's never lost his license. he's paid the fines
Starting point is 00:01:06 okay that's what people do that's why municipalities have police officers to write tickets so they can make money through roadway violations oh wait I mean the police are there for safety and to protect the community
Starting point is 00:01:25 and they do a great job and I mean that they do do a great job however there are many communities that go out of their way to write tickets. I know of several in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex that do this. It's got to be a huge income for them because they do a lot of it. Now, some of them would say that maybe there's a lot of violators.
Starting point is 00:01:55 Yes. Yes, I'll give you that. I'll give you that. However, some of the violations Maybe perhaps we have too many Maybe we have too many regulations What? There's a thought.
Starting point is 00:02:14 So anyway, the horror of the Marco Rubio family crime spree of having driving violations is horrific. It's a horrific crime in itself. Then I look at my email, and I got an email from one of my show producers, Brandy. talks about how Minnie Mouse and Hello Kitty arrested in Times Square brawl. Now, if you've been to New York or worked in New York or lived in New York, especially specifically Manhattan, and I have, and that's where our studios are in New York for the Blaze and Mercury Radio Arts and the Blaze Radio Network.
Starting point is 00:02:55 So, you know, obviously we were there before we came to Dallas. I was in and out of Manhattan every day. and they have people who dress up as the characters, some Disney, some Muppets, and they all wander around and people take pictures with them. And you never know who's in them or really or who's doing it. I mean, I always found that kind of weird. Kind of weird.
Starting point is 00:03:22 But now they're there. People take the pictures, whatever. So apparently Minnie Mouse and Hello Kitty got into a big brawl in Times Square and got arrested. And man, do I wish I would have been there to see that. But what I was laughing about is Brandy sends the story telling me that she hates these a-holes. Last week, Homer Simpson tried, let's just say Homer tried to touch her inappropriately.
Starting point is 00:04:03 I'm hurt. I'm hurt. I don't know what that says. I know what it says about me because Homer, never tried to do that to me. It's kind of disappointing. But I love New York. Man, do I miss New York in Manhattan? You aren't kidding. I miss them so much. We'll talk a little bit more on our crime segment. Those are just two crime stories that kind of fascinate me now. And I know that you're going to, you may have missed former president, Jimmy Carter,
Starting point is 00:04:43 speaking to the AARP bulletin during a recent interview. Huh. Jimmy, you're getting some big interviews there. AARP is good. Okay. The AARP bulletin, and who doesn't get that? that Americans hold feelings of superiority toward minorities. Do they, Jimmy?
Starting point is 00:05:16 Mr. Carter spoke on a range of subjects. I bet he did, including campaign spending and lobbyists, but he made a point to say that the U.S. still is lacking in terms of safeguarding civil rights. Are they, Jimmy? Are they? The recent publicity about mistreatment of black people in the judicial and police realm has been a reminder that the dreams of the civil rights movement have not been realized. Many Americans still have racist tendencies or feelings of superiority to people of color. The former president added that the politics of the 70s changed in such a way that he would not even get the level Republican support he enjoyed as the 39th president.
Starting point is 00:06:04 I would like to go back and see if he actually had that great level of support. because times were really good when Jim was president. There was harmony among congressmen when I was there, and I got just as much support from Republicans as I did Democrats. I can't imagine myself as a successful candidate today, Mr. Carter said, you know what? Former President Jimmy Carter, I can't imagine you as president today either. Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:42 Me either. Can't do it. Wish it didn't happen to begin with, but it did. And we did get a pretty good precedent after you because of you. So I guess thanks are in order for that. But of course, we have a professor that wants all, white people to give up
Starting point is 00:07:15 their money. What do you think? You ready for that? Okay. Take the extra savings you have or money you have saving for a family trip to Disney and give it away, baby.
Starting point is 00:07:29 That's right. White people, you've got too much money and you should be giving it all to black people. Okay? Simple as that. Be ready for that. People need to personally give all their money to black people.
Starting point is 00:07:53 That, my friends, will be hearing about that all next week. Lawrence Brown, Public Health Department of Morgan State University in Baltimore. He has been tweeting new rules for what people need to do. and he believes that black suffer from historical trauma from white supremacist America. My new criteria for white allies is going to be how much are you using your whiteness to literally eliminate the racial wealth gap? New rule. White allies should deposit their honored wealth in black accounts or jump between black people and police at every opportunity. Huh.
Starting point is 00:08:42 Black people were giving away white ally ships for two cheap. for far too long have you. So there you go. Be ready for that. He's preaching that. I don't know that a lot of people are listening to that. However, however,
Starting point is 00:09:00 be ready for that. I mean, it's no speeding down a highway and getting a ticket kind of crime because if you were to give your money to black people, that wouldn't be a crime. That would be good.
Starting point is 00:09:16 and I'm sure that Jimmy Carter, our former president, would love you for it. Don't you think? Oh, of course he would. Here we go. This is the Jeff Fisher Show on the Blaze Radio Network.
