You're listening to the Jeff Fisher Show. When our water heater broke down last month, it was a nightmare.

And you think about all the food that we waste here in America. And I was going down this list that talks about what it asks you to do. Look, you're not going to, you know, a lot of stuff you're not going to do.

Okay, you're just not. You know, some of them are just helpful tips. Shop deliberately from a list for just a couple of meals ahead of time. Otherwise, your eyes will be bigger than your stomach, and much of what you will buy will end up in the trash. Use up leftovers by making catch-all dishes like soups, stir fries, fried rice. Stale bread, hey, make menus involving croutons, French toast, or bread pudding. Learn to store food properly.

Do not get freaked out by expiration dates. Okay. So those are just basic, helpful hints on trying to save money so you waste less food. Right. Right. So January 22nd comes along in a country that goes by the name of Venezuela. Coming to a country near you, by the way, very soon. President Amador.

replaced his minister of urban agriculture. I'm sure he placed him and has anyone seen him? No, he's gone now. He is and was at that time

just a couple of weeks ago asking Venezuelans to grow their own food because import shortages are not going away anytime soon. Okay? It's America's fault.

No question. He wants to beat our president with a stick. Remember he has said, hey, no problem. It comes to America. I want to beat him with a stick. That's the new urban agriculture head. So, and it goes on and on and on about Venezuela and what they're doing.

and America sucks and there's food shortages, so start growing your own potatoes. What do we see as a headline today? Venezuela. declares another emergency. It has run out of food. Venezuela's opposition legislature has declared a nutritional emergency proclaiming that the country simply does not have enough food

to feed its population. Hmm. Hmm. They've been waiting in line for pints of milk, bags of flour, cooking oil. At one point,

people were waiting in line overnight for the stores to open. So they put a ban on overnight line standing. And so, so you could only start standing in line early in the morning, agonizing.

Now, they want more imports on basic foods and inspect government-owned food companies to ensure their meeting efficiency standards. Huh, so a dictatorship socialist country is having problems feeding their people. Wonder what could go wrong with all of that. I don't know. A recent report highlighted the struggle of the average Venezuelan what they endure to inquire basic foods like butter, oil, flour, five hours in line to buy chicken. The shelves are empty.

Okay. There were people killed. We saw video not long ago of fighting in front of a store over a bag of flour. someone died. Okay. So here's what's coming for you. If we allow someone like, oh, I don't know, who could it be? Who could it be?

Bernie Sanders? Or someone like, who could it be? Who could it be? Oh, Hillary Clinton. Although some would say that Hillary is better than Bernie because she at least doesn't want to go as far as Bernie. I think she just doesn't want to say she wants to go as far as Bernie. Okay.

Now we have primary coming up, the primary in South Carolina coming up on Monday. Okay. You may want to get out and cast your vote in South Carolina. And then coming up, I think the first of March is Super Tuesday. Somewhere in that neck of the woods is Super Tuesday And you know if you're involved in that You need to get out Right now I just saw a Fox poll

Holy crap It can't I mean I don't know I don't know any of the details I don't know you know who was asked And how many people were involved But the latest on Fox Which Seems

To be happy that Trump is in the lead said that Trump 345 Cruz 155 in South Carolina. So Ted could still hang strong with a second place showing in South Carolina. But I want, obviously, we want him to win. Glenn's there all weekend campaigning for him. But Super Tuesday comes, he has got to have a strong showing. Super Tuesday. But if he wins Monday, hello.

Now, he's got to come out tonight in this debate and be strong. No whining. I don't want to hear people whining about not getting enough time. I don't want to hear people whining about, oh, thank God you finally called me. I don't want to hear people whining about, oh, instead of answering

that question, I want to answer this question. No whining in the debate. The first person that whines, I want, helped off the stage immediately. Uh, you're winding? Oh, yeah, you're done. The Jeff Fisher Show, the Blaze Radio Network.
