Summary

Garage Logic – “Garage Logic citizens facing their Waterloo moment”

Podcast: Garage Logic
Episode Date: June 16, 2026
Episode Number: 1799
Host: Joe Soucheray, with Chris Reavers, Kenny Olson, John Height, and Matthew

Episode Overview

In this impassioned episode, host Joe Soucheray declares this “the most important show in the history of GL,” centering on what he dubs the “Waterloo moment” — a defining crisis for Minneapolis citizens. The primary focus is the heated controversy over the closure of the Minnehaha off-leash dog park, which, according to Soucheray and listeners, symbolizes a broader failure of local governance to heed public interests. The discussion uses the dog park issue to critique progressive politics in the Twin Cities, argue for responsive government, and warn that unchecked activism runs contrary to American values and communal joy.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. The “Waterloo Moment” and Dog Park Controversy

• [03:22] Joe introduces an email from Dale, a longtime listener, expressing despair for the country’s direction. This email inspires Joe to elevate today’s episode and draw historical parallels.
• [04:01] Joe frames the debate over the Minnehaha dog park as Minneapolis’s “Waterloo” — a pivotal moment, not just about dogs, but “whether the governed will ever be heard by their government again.”
• [05:00] The panel laments a lack of transparency and responsiveness from the Minneapolis Park Board, criticizing closed-door meetings and the suppression of public comment.
• [06:29] Listener emails highlight absurdities, including the claim that dogs’ presence disturbs Native American prayers at the park, and question whether compromise (e.g., closing the park only at certain times) is possible.

Notable Quote:

“[The real] Waterloo we’re facing is being governed by people who aren’t taking us into consideration… If we continue to allow the political class… to run the show without acknowledging your presence… it’s over.”
— Joe Soucheray [04:01]

---

2. Listener Responses & Comparative Cases

• [07:00] Joe reads multiple emails, many of which argue the park closure is driven by progressive virtue signaling, not genuine need.
• [09:00] Jeff from Brainerd draws comparisons to the legally justified and community-inclusive closure of Gull Lake Dam road due to actual burial mounds, contrasting it with the “BS” rationale for the Minnehaha park action.
• [12:00] The “BSO Meter” (Bullshit Siren Alarm) is referenced and played, underscoring the hosts’ skepticism.

Notable Quote:

“If you want to see how a society with actual gumption protects history without paralyzing taxpaying citizens… look at Gull Lake. They… built a new bridge first. Minneapolis builds fences and hands out ‘discomfort.’”
— Jeff from Brainerd [09:00]

---

3. Broader Critique of Activism, Governance, and Community

• [13:00] The hosts argue Minneapolis officials are professional activists, not accountable public servants.
• [16:00] The show refutes conspiracy theories involving the Somali and Muslim communities’ supposed influence on the dog park, dismissing those ideas due to lack of evidence.
• [20:00] The panel mocks the performative nature of progressive board members and laments a decline in civic beauty and happiness — “Where is the goodness? Where is the joy?” [08:30].

Notable Quote:

“We cannot continue to be governed by activists who have never done anything except destroy and complain.”
— Joe Soucheray [12:00]

---

4. Media Coverage and Citizen Disenfranchisement

• [22:00] The hosts highlight a lack of mainstream media coverage and credit Alpha News for their reporting.

• [29:00] The discussion returns to the theme of absent compromise and leaders prescribing instead of listening:

  “The professional activist politician does not wonder what you think. They wish to tell you what you should think. And it’s ruining us.” [29:20]

• [31:00] Governance is compared to a dictatorship, not a democracy, due to officials’ disregard for public input.

---

5. Historical and Cultural Reflections:

• [33:00] The episode’s “Waterloo” metaphor expands, warning that if citizens lose on the dog park, “be prepared to lose more and more and more… This will never stop.”
• [35:00] The “mystery” is defined as an agenda to create a country “that is not the United States”—centralized, unresponsive, joyless, and devoid of beauty, enabled by public passivity.

Notable Quote:

“What joy and beauty have you found as the result of the leadership in Minneapolis… Tell me, and I will be glad to correct myself.”
— Joe Soucheray [35:27]

---

6. Related Current Events: Schools, Flag, and Migration

• [61:33] Discussion of a Minneapolis school board debate about creating a $105 million Anishinaabe Academy seen as another “Waterloo” — evidence of government overreach and identity politics.
• [66:37] Joe reads “White Liberal Women” by L.H. Gray, a blistering critique of “performative compassion” and the current progressive zeitgeist, linking it back to local leaders.
• [77:27] The hosts note that out-migration from Minnesota is increasing and blame progressive mismanagement and high costs.

---

7. Calls to Action & Reflection

• [78:41] Joe returns to his call for civic engagement, urging listeners to vote with intention and demand accountability from leaders, inviting anyone to “cite an example” of progressive policy resulting in genuine community joy.

— Joe Soucheray [04:01]

“Progressives bring nothing beautiful, creative or productive to the table… Where is the goodness? Where is the joy? Where is the happiness? They seek only to destroy.”
— Tom Bonnet, listener (read by Joe) [08:30]

“The professional activist politician does not wonder what you think. They wish to tell you what you should think. And it’s ruining us. It’s destroying the togetherness they pretend to seek.”
— Joe Soucheray [29:20]

“You are the high priestesses of performative compassion, the ones who weep theatrical tears over distant oppressed strangers while turning a blind eye to the fentanyl corpses piling up at your own cities…”
— L.H. Gray (“White Liberal Women” piece read by Joe) [67:17]

“The Minnehaha Dog park is not a Waterloo about dog parks… it’s a Waterloo challenge about how the common man and woman… are represented by the political class.”
— Joe Soucheray [78:41]

Memorable Moments

• The team’s frequent invocation of the “BSO Meter” whenever a dubious argument is raised [12:00].
• The reading of L.H. Gray’s fiery essay, which electrifies the panel and links local politics to national pathologies [67:17–72:15].
• The hypothetical about future generations opening Minnesota’s “fraud flag” in a national time capsule — used as a metaphor for failed leadership [52:09].

Summary

This episode is a vigorous critique of local governance, progressive politics, and the growing distance between citizens and their representatives. Using the closure of the Minnehaha dog park as a lightning rod, Joe Soucheray and the Garage Logic team argue that the real crisis is a collapse of common sense, joy, and responsive government in Minneapolis and Minnesota at large. The hosts see this as a “Waterloo moment” — a final test of whether citizens can reclaim their voice—or risk perpetual loss to unaccountable, activist-driven leadership. The episode is punctuated by provocative listener emails, scathing satire, and a call for public engagement, encapsulating Garage Logic’s trademark blend of local commentary and cultural criticism.

[Chris Reavers]

Hail the Flashlight King.

[Joe Soucheray]

And now, from the mayor's office above the boathouse on the east of Spoon Lake, it's Garage Logic with Chris Reavers manning technology corner, Kenny Olson from the crabby coffee shop, John Height in the newsroom and of course, the rookie here is your Flashlight King, fireworks commissioner and the keeper of common sense, your mayor, Joe Susher. I'm going to start this show with an email from Dale, and then I'm gonna tell you why this might be the most important show in the history of GL.

[Chris Reavers]

Really a lot of pressure.

[Joe Soucheray]

Dale writes. I am 76 years old and I used to believe I wouldn't live to see the fall of our country. Now I believe we are too far gone to recover. Listening to your show keeps me from giving up all hope. Keep up the good work. Stay safe. Stay Dale Mason. Dale, you're onto something. I submit to you that this is the most important show in the annals of GL because of the dog park controversy.

[Kenny Olson]

That's show 1799, right?

[Joe Soucheray]

I think this is Waterloo. Waterloo, of course, was Napoleon's last stand. It's come to mean final defeat or setback. If the public does not win this park board issue with access to Minnehaha park for their dogs, I would say the Twin Cities will continue to decline and not recover. And I think I can explain what I mean by that. We are putting up with way too much representation that does not take our concerns into account. The park board has no business ignoring the owners of dogs who have been using the park in question for 34 years. They can't hide behind redacted documents. They can't have private advisory meetings. No, you listen to the public park board, you open up a public comment meeting, let the room be filled with hundreds of people who pay taxes and happen to own dogs, and you listen to them. If one stray voice trying to sell the. Sell the BS that dogs are a problem because of a spirituality interference, we have lost. I think this has tentacles that reach across the American experience. If we continue to allow the political class on either side of the aisle. But here in the Twin Cities, it's predominantly, if not exclusively, DFL socialists. If they continue to run the show without acknowledging your presence or taking your concerns into consideration, it's over. And it could be over if you don't win the dog park controversy. Let me read some emails that came in. I maintain these are the finest responses to a topic we've had on gl. Hail the flashlight, King.

[Chris Reavers]

Hail you.

[Joe Soucheray]

Ryan writes. I've been listening to yesterday's podcast on my drive this morning. In the conversation concerning off leash dogs intercepting the prayers of Native Americans, it was never brought up as to the number of Native Americans that visit the site each day to offer prayers. Are there any? How do the number of people praying compare to the number of off leash dog visitors. I find it more feasible to close the dog park a couple of hours each day for Native American prayers rather than shut down the off leash dog park completely. I'm sure there is a compromise in there somewhere. Now, let's keep in mind that the Waterloo itself that we're facing is not a dog park. The Waterloo we're facing is continuing to be governed by people who are not taking us into consideration in their governing. But that fellow was on the right track because he's saying, well, where's the compromise? What he's really saying is, why aren't these people listening? Why does this have to be so cut and dried? Tom Bonnet, your discussion of a Minneapolis dog park closing out of reverence for Native Americans. Just the latest manifestation of what to me is the Left's most sinister impulse, the corruption of innocence. There are few things more purely joyful than dogs and their owners leaving the cares of the world behind, enjoying each other's company in a beautiful natural setting. But in true progressive fashion, we've made it ugly. We've taken the privilege away to punish people who had nothing to do with the supposed sins in question. Now the land will sit idle and unkempt, and if history is any guide, it will soon become a homeless encampment. But that won't matter to the self flagellating progressives who shut it down, since by then they'll have moved on to the next beautiful, innocent thing in their sights that they will destroy. Progressives bring nothing beautiful, creative or productive to the table. Let me pause there. I couldn't agree more. I share that sentiment because I keep wondering if progressivism is so popular and it's so frequently voted for, where is the goodness? Where is the joy? Where is the beauty? Where is the refreshment? Where is the innovation? Where is the happiness? Back to Bonnet's letter. They seek only to destroy. Whether it's at George Floyd Square, the dog park, or countless other formerly thriving, beautiful places in the City of Lakes. The goal is destruction. Like crops decimated by locusts. If the Left gets their way, this country will be a desolate wasteland. Time out. This is Waterloo. I am grateful. I don't understand the impulse, but I do wonder if understanding it would help us combat it. It's a corruption of the soul. I'm no longer religious, but even I believe nothing short of dropping to our knees and begging forgiveness will turn things around. It's increasingly hard not to believe in God when evil is on proud Display here, here. Now, a note from Brainerd that really well, they're all hitting it out of the park, but this one in particular from Jeff Hebert. Mr. Mayor, I've been tracking the kerfuffle over the Minneapolis Park Board's unanimous rush to decommission the Minnehaha off leash dog park. As you guys pointed out, the BSO meter. The rationale floating around Diversity Ville is that free roaming Labradors are somehow stealing the pray or disturbing the stratosphere of the ancestral Dakota landscape. At Coldwater Spring, Park Board Commissioner Jason Garcia told us all to sit with discomfort while they take away a 34 year old canine paradise without a shred of public input. It's the ultimate performative virtue signaling we've come to expect from the Twin Cities. But I want to offer an interesting comparison from up here in beautiful Brainerd Lakes area. The closure of the Gull Lake Dam road in Crow Wing County. I know exactly where this is. It shows the difference between a real legally sound historical preservation project and the lazy, rushed circus happening at Minnehaha. When the US Army Corps of Engineers permanently closed the old single lane road over the Gull Lake Dam, they did. It sat adjacent to 12 documented legally verifiable burial mounds from the ancient woodland tradition. Heavy vehicle traffic and massive road vibrations were literally causing slope instability and eroding centuries Old Graves. 5 Regional tribes formally requested the closure through actual legal channels, not vague closed door conversations. But here is the real kicker. The contrast in how real leadership handles infrastructure versus how the park board handles it. Number one, they built an actual solution. First in the Brainerd area up at Gull Lake. They didn't just put up a chain link fence, tell citizens to sit with their trauma and leave them stranded. The authorities actually built a brand new bridge over the Gull river, laid out two new roundabouts and kept the community moving. Minneapolis, meanwhile, is voting to shut down Minnehaha by winter with absolutely zero alternative sites lined up. Number two, they dealt with actual evidence. The Gull Lake site is a National Register of Historic Places landmark where archaeologists excavated tangible Brainerd ware pottery fragments and verified human remains. The Minnehaha shutdown relies heavily on what opponents are calling rushed non public to justify taking away public parkland. Number three, the local pushback was real. Back in 2018, when the town hall met at East Gull Lake City hall, local residents and businesses showed up in droves to fight for their road. Even the Cass county commissioners passed a resolution trying to keep it open, claiming the Leech Lake ban was fine with it, but when the formal federal tribal request came in, the law was followed in an actual infrastructure comp compromise was built. Minneapolis dog owners are begging for a single public comment period while the park board hides behind private advisory meetings. If you want to see how a society with actual gumption protects history without completely paralyzing the taxpaying citizens who use the parks, look at Gull Lake. They protected the sacred site. They built a new bridge first. Minneapolis just buil fences and hands out discomfort. Thanks and good luck, Jeff. And Brainerd. Well, he nails why this is Waterloo. He nails why a seemingly trivial matter like a dog park is not trivial. We cannot continue to be governed by activists who have never done anything except destroy and complain. We can't. If you don't win this one, there is no end to it. I thought Calhoun might have been the beginning. Calhoun wasn't Waterloo. We survived the name change, but the name change was brought about for the same reason the dog park is being closed. The dog park is being closed without any consideration whatsoever of the citizens of Minneapolis because you are governed by people who don't know how to do that. I have so much more on this.

[Kenny Olson]

And it's just another step, Joe, in achieving the DSA's goal of giving back, which is financially impossible when you start running the numbers.

[Chris Reavers]

And it fits the description of. We've always been saying, just constantly looking for a reason to be offended, and that's all. This is all just invented, invented animosity towards something that doesn't exist when we

[Joe Soucheray]

are governed by people who have not even experienced life. By experiencing life, I mean actually working at a job where results are demanded. Activism is working at a job that doesn't demand any results. There is no measurable way to explore achievement when all you've done is being able to list on your resume that you've been a professional activist. Big deal. We've all been professional activists. It's nonsense to think that that sue writes. What about all the other animals coming up from the river? There is something else going on here. What is it? Power? Money. This is way out there. Are our immigrant friends who don't like dogs involved somehow? She's not the first one to mention that. I'm finding no evidence that this has anything to do with our Somali brothers and sisters. I don't see how it could. They're too busy stealing money. They don't have to worry about a dog park.

[Kenny Olson]

She just triggered something that I had forgotten or hadn't thought about. Animals such as coyotes and fox, etc. Have incredible senses of smell. And they can smell something buried. So those bones unfortunately probably dug up by animals a long, long time ago.

[Joe Soucheray]

Here's from Roger. Hi, Joe. If you Google, did ancient Dakota Indians in Minnesota have dogs in their tribes? You will find dogs were part of their spiritual practices. Take care, Roger. Bless.

[Kenny Olson]

They served as pack animals and they also served as, you know, food, sometimes feasts. Yeah, absolutely, Joe.

[Joe Soucheray]

In an area like Minnehaha Dog park, virtually every animal native to Minnesota roams the area and has for hundreds and thousands of years. Also, I bet the natives themselves had pet dogs in this area. My guess is none of the wild animals or the native pets were on leashes. Fox and coyote numbers of the dog family are certainly there. Apparently we are to believe that none of these many, many wild animals absorb prayers. That's from John O.

[Kenny Olson]

Good job, John.

[Joe Soucheray]

Yeah, Joel. The natives are the ones who domesticated dogs to begin with. I find this whole argument to be specious. Absolute B as in B, S as in S. Could we hear our first ever sounding of the BSO meter?

[Chris Reavers]

We can, Joe. I'm glad you asked.

[Joe Soucheray]

Yeah. Alarm, alarm, alarm. There it a giant BS siren sounding over the city. Alarm, alarm. How much do you think the Muslim community has to do with this dog park issue? See, I've got a number of that. I'm not. I can't draw any comparison.

[Kenny Olson]

Nothing I have read at this point.

[Joe Soucheray]

Think of the large Somali community, most of whom have dogs, most of whom think dogs are harem. Maybe this Espinosa lady also has some sort of connection to that community. No, I don't even think that's a road we should go down. I love the resume of somebody who has never worked talking about working towards collective liberation. I am pretty sure his idea of liberty is not even close to mine or years. Mine does not include a collective. Good luck. Jennifer.

[Kenny Olson]

Is he talking. You guys have been talking about Dan Engelhardt, right?

[Joe Soucheray]

Well, he's a.

[Kenny Olson]

He's Garcia and he's the one we talked about yesterday. He's Commissioner of District 1. Ironically, the dog park is in Commissioner District 5 that K. Moran is the commissioner of.

[Joe Soucheray]

Have we heard from K. We have

[Kenny Olson]

not, which I find interesting.

[Joe Soucheray]

Joey, yesterday, in discussing the unleashed dog park issue, you read from a piece on Alpha News. The whole controversy is silly, but our phrase, one phrase in the article caught my attention. In the conclusion, the writer said a website called Save Minnehaha Off Leash Dog park was launched in response to the closure effect and is demanding The Park Board release non confidential portions of the studies used to justify the decision. What would possibly be considered confidential as part of a Park Board study? Aren't we just a little cloak and dagger here? It's a Park Board report on a dog park, not the Epstein files on another one. Other nugget I picked up from the conversation was when Kenny was reading the bio about the other Park Board person who was in favor of the restrictions. That would be the person you just mentioned.

[Kenny Olson]

Yeah. Commissioner Engelhardt.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Joe Soucheray]

His hobbies include hanging with dogs. Pick a side, buddy, because the dogs are not happy about this. If they want to know how to showcase a Native historical site with the public, they should look into the Chokiah Mound State Historic park in Illin. My wife is an anthropologist who often works with various tribes as part of her job, and she suggested we go there on a previous trip to St. Louis. It was fascinating. In the year 1100, Cahokia was larger than London with 20,000 inhabitants. The museum was closed when we went due to the Black Plague. I mean Covid. But the site had a virtual reality phone app and we all enjoyed it much more than I will ever admit to my wife. We walked all over the site. And outside of not having convenient restrooms available for the little ones, it was great. And we learned a lot. FYI, dogs are allowed but must be leashed. Good luck, John. It's Waterloo, ladies and gentlemen of the Twin Cities. And we are populated by news people. I'm sorry. This is going to be the only show where you hear this is bs. The rest of the people are afraid to say it. They won't say it. Television news programs will handle this as though it's something meaningful. But they're missing what is truly meaningful about it.

[Chris Reavers]

Well, in all honesty, outside of Alpha, who covered it?

[Joe Soucheray]

Nobody. Alphas should be commended for covering it. It has nothing to do with conservatism. By the way, Alpha is labeled a conservative news site by, say, the Star Tribune.

[Kenny Olson]

The Star Tribune has covered it.

[Joe Soucheray]

Star Tribune has it today on the front.

[Kenny Olson]

PA Journal has also covered.

[Joe Soucheray]

But they're not calling it bs. This is.

[Kenny Olson]

Oh, goodness, no.

[Joe Soucheray]

And here's the BS part. We have to stop being governed by people like this park board and this city council. They're not taking us into consideration.

[Matthew]

Did you.

[Joe Soucheray]

Go ahead.

[Chris Reavers]

Did you say bs?

[Joe Soucheray]

I did. Alarm. Alarm. Alarm. Thank you. Rosedale Chevrolet is a business elite dealer. You know what that means, you working men and women.

Joe Sushere Boy, in the middle of summer. There's nothing better than quality family time on the water living the pontoon lifestyle. And lucky for us, G L there's Warner stock in New Richmond. Oh and they're on the web. Warner stock.com they have a big selection of both Premier and Bentley pontoons that are on sale right now. And I've been thinking about this and the only thing better than watching fireworks on the 4th of July out in the middle of the lake on a pontoon is having the best pontoon on the lake during those hastily arranged pop up pontoon parades that I think every lake has over the fourth holiday.

[Joe Soucheray]

i would bet that the owners of dogs who freak with that beach on the Mississippi below Minnehaha park would be amenable to some compromise.

[Matthew]

Yes.

[Joe Soucheray]

Was that even offered to them?

[Matthew]

I bet not.

[Joe Soucheray]

The professional activist politician does not wonder what you think. They wish to tell you what you should think. They don't wonder what I think. They want to tell me what I should think. And it's ruining us. It's destroying the togetherness that they pretend to seek. It's dark. These are dark, dark people. Meaning they have. Let's go back to the beauty. Where is the beauty? Where is the, you know, let's use George Floyd Square. I've said many times, I'm glad you brought that up. Where is the beautification? Where is the taking it serious? It's taken six years. The people who don't listen to you have spent 5 million of your dollars. You keep electing them, they keep failing you. You keep electing them. They have never taken your it to heart. That is a. It's a. It's a mess. It's a bleep show at 38th in Chicago. It's a remiss.

[Kenny Olson]

Remember one of the councilmen there on the border of that area, Chavez had a plan and he said he didn't care what people thought about. He was going to force it through. That is not leadership. That's dictatorship.

[Joe Soucheray]

We have the worst governing you could possibly imagine in a free society because they don't listen to us, nor are they interested enough to listen to us.

[Matthew]

How do we make the change? How do we get people.

[Joe Soucheray]

I don't know how to make the change. Minnesota has got a lot of wet noodles living in the metro area. And many of them will just cave over and flop on the ground and say, oh, we don't dare disrupt the spiritual dogs or the spiritual prayers of the natives who are having their prayers stolen by dogs. They're going to buy that bs.

[Kenny Olson]

That attitude that we got from Chavez is the same attitude that the president of the park board, Tom Olson, had when he got elected and he decided he doesn't want cars on the parkways anymore. And it is his personal goal to get rid of all automobiles on the parkway. The grand rounds that was designed for automobiles.

[Joe Soucheray]

Yeah. Forget the Vietnam vet with no legs who likes to be driven around the parkway.

[Kenny Olson]

Right.

[Matthew]

These people don't think of anybody.

[Joe Soucheray]

They don't think of anybody but their performative. That's all they do.

[Kenny Olson]

Joe. The irony there is there's already a separate bike trail and a separate walking trail and a street for cars. That's not good enough for President Olson.

[Joe Soucheray]

Back to the Waterloo moment, because I think this is it. Yes, it's a. You all right? Are you okay?

[Matthew]

I swallowed coffee.

[Joe Soucheray]

Wrong yet. It's a Waterloo moment because if the citizens of Minneapolis lose the right to just innocently take their dog down to a sand stretch of beach on the Mississippi river, then you must be prepared. And if you don't put up a fight, and if you don't learn how to say bs, you then must be prepared to lose more and more and more. This will never stop.

[Chris Reavers]

It's the same mentality and the same reason why we were so ripe for the picking as it relates to fraud because we're afraid to call it out.

[Kenny Olson]

This might actually end up end up working in our favor.

[Joe Soucheray]

Well, that's my hope.

[Kenny Olson]

Because we've been saying for years, why would the typical Minneapolis citizen who has a job and makes money and is trying to raise a family, why would they vote for fill in the blank, this DSA candidate? Right. Maybe it's something like this that's going to finally open their eyes and they're going to realize, well, I made the wrong choice. We need to change this things. Maybe it'll work in favor if you

[Joe Soucheray]

lose this by you, I mean all of us have a vested interest in this. Because the Waterloo moment is how we're governed. It's not a dog park. There's a distinction. If we lose this, then be prepared to lose anything you can imagine. I don't know why. For example, if you lose this, why should any citizen be allowed to even watch the water go over the falls at Minneapolis? Ah, I'm sure there's some sacred meaning to that. There's been poems written about it and sacred prayers and maybe the water might

[Matthew]

be making the grave site or whatever the barrier.

[Kenny Olson]

What about the Hidden Falls away? The Hidden Falls over on the wrong side of the river. Same thing there.

[Joe Soucheray]

How can anyone live along Minnehaha Creek? Right.

[Kenny Olson]

From Edina or Minnetonka.

[Matthew]

Excuse me.

[Joe Soucheray]

How about from Minnetonka to the falls?

[Kenny Olson]

To the falls, Right, right.

[Joe Soucheray]

How can there be a Minnetonka?

[Matthew]

Why are you giving them ideas?

[Joe Soucheray]

How can there be a white bear?

[Kenny Olson]

Well, because, Matthew, this is part. This is step one of the DSA's Platform of Giving land back. If they win this, the DSA is well on their way.

[Joe Soucheray]

Okay, now attach it to the mystery. The mystery is the attempt to bring about a country that is not the United States. What better way of bringing about a country that is not the United States than taking away the idea of actually listening to the citizens. That brings about the mystery. The mystery would be centralized government running everything. And they'll knock down a shopping center or something to make a dog park. But they won't destroy. They won't allow you to use the beach at the river.

[Kenny Olson]

They will assign you jobs. You won't get paid in cash. It'll be tokens and coupons for food and gas, et cetera.

[Joe Soucheray]

And you'll shop at the government grocery store. These people have no beauty in mind. They have nothing joyful in mind. And all of you listeners who think I'm full of B as in B, S as in S, please tell me, and I will be glad to correct myself. What joy and beauty have you found as the result of the leadership in Minneapolis, if not the entire state of Minnesota? What joy and beauty are you found finding? Tell me. I'll go look at it because I haven't seen it.

[Matthew]

So they're just going to continue to go after the oppressors?

[Joe Soucheray]

Well, white people are the oppressors. That's coming up in the second half of the most important show in Garage Logic history. This is, this is a Waterloo moment. This is Napoleon at those gates somewhere in Netherlands or wherever the hell he was. This is it.

[Chris Reavers]

It is funny how certain members that are holding elected positions where they place their rage, you know what I'm saying? Like they're mad about this, but yet are any of them upset about the fraud that's taking place or any of them upset about the actual things that are truly plaguing taxpayers of this state?

[Joe Soucheray]

I don't think the people holding DSA seats on park boards or city councils are upset about the fraud. That plays into their end game.

[Kenny Olson]

This is part of a non violent takeover is what it is. Just the way they've. The same thing they've done over in Europe, France and Spain, the Netherlands.

[Chris Reavers]

Did they hold like a focus group? Hey, what do you got?

[Matthew]

Here, here's what I got.

[Chris Reavers]

Dogs are stealing prayers.

[Joe Soucheray]

No. And it's amazing that the voice of one woman who we can't contact, we can't reach this Espinosa character. It's amazing the traction she's getting for her bs. It's just amazing. And that's all it takes, is one voice to condemn the majority. And the mysterians jump all over it and elevate it to a powerful position because it meets their agenda. The template of the mystery is to ruin that which works. If it works, it must be wrong

[Kenny Olson]

to quietly ruin that which is work. I think they would have been further along, they would have made more progress if the media hadn't found out about this, if the dog lovers hadn't alerted the general public to this. Think of that story I gave you yesterday about Roosevelt park. That's now called 40th Street Park. That changed without anybody knowing. It just happened. And that's the way they like to do business.

[Matthew]

Is this gaslighting?

[Kenny Olson]

No, no, it's a new form of gaslighting.

[Joe Soucheray]

It's a form, but it's not in the. It's not the classical example of.

[Chris Reavers]

You know what it is?

[Joe Soucheray]

What's their end game to bring about a country that is not the United States. We just got done saying it. Their end game is to. To bring about an equity where everyone suffers misery equal.

[Kenny Olson]

They drive across the country. Instead of seeing a fantastic, beautiful country, home of the free, they see something that we can take over. We can make this ours. We can rule this land.

[Joe Soucheray]

And it won't be pretty.

[Kenny Olson]

It's evil intentions.

[Joe Soucheray]

It won't be pretty. Well, don't get me going there. I mean, we.

[Matthew]

Everything they're trying to fight against right

[Joe Soucheray]

now, everything that I'm speaking about is happening. No matter what your political persuasion is. That's why I like this alarm, alarm, alarm. That's why I like to smoke a cigar once in a while. Just find a chair where there's still a tree left. You know, that hasn't been before, that gets chopped down, that hasn't been declared, some violation of something. And open up your Boveda humidor, select a cigar, close the Boveda humidor. That's all you do with a Boveda humidor. You open and close it to get a cigar. You're not monitoring distiller, distilled water, sponges, beads, magic potions or gauges.

[Matthew]

How about paper towels? No paper towels.

[Joe Soucheray]

No, I've tried that same. The crushed up paper towel full of tap water and you put it in The Tupperware. No. The Boveda humidor is built with one goal in mind. Your only task is to enjoy the cigar. This is an affordable luxury. These babies are handsome. Handsome as heck. And all you do is drop in one Boveda pack and you're done. Six months later, put a new Boveda pack in it. Your cigars will be perfect. These are made out of wood. They're handsome. The chrome hinges, they're really, really handsome. They'll look good anywhere you put it. But mine looks good in the garage. If you're thinking ahead, this is a great. Well, when's Father's Day?

[Matthew]

Sunday, 21st. Yeah, you're gonna get a new tie.

[Joe Soucheray]

No, you don't need a tie. You need a humidor. It's a great Father's Day gift. That's something dad will actually use and enjoy. Traditional look. Modern precision. Best Part Zero maintenance shop now at Boveda B O V E D A bovedahumador.com.

North American Banking company member FDIC is an equal housing lender. And what would normally be Johnny Height's newscast is brought to us by our friends at North American Banking Company Joe,

[Joe Soucheray]

Johnny told us he's under the weather, but he spared us the details. I think he was bitten by his dog, Larry.

[Chris Reavers]

You think so?

[Kenny Olson]

Oh, Larry wouldn't do that, would Woody?

[Matthew]

I think he's out walking.

[Joe Soucheray]

Larry.

[Chris Reavers]

No, John actually left me a voicemail and I heard. Oh, it was one of those deals. John, are you doing okay?

[Joe Soucheray]

Oh, no, John. Oh, that's terrible. That's terrible. Say who was. Remember our friend Tom Cullen? We got to know him because he was concerned that the legislature didn't go in. The Democrats refused to show up for work. Right. And he was gonna. He was taking on what's her name, his representative in. Down in.

[Chris Reavers]

I got it. Let me get it. It's what's right at the tip of your tongue.

[Joe Soucheray]

Oh, it's right at the tip of my tongue.

[Chris Reavers]

Tom Cullen.

[Joe Soucheray]

And he, he. He abandoned all hope because of the nonsense bureaucracy he had to go through to try to hold her accountable. Usually you're good at this and you're

[Matthew]

failing Mary Jo McGuire. But that she's not. She's in Falcon Heights.

[Joe Soucheray]

Well, he's written, he's wr a. I'm going to call it a fourth of July document. Okay. And it's very germane to what we've been talking about facing our Waterloo movement here. Dear Joe and the citizens of Garagelogic. As we approach the 4th of July and the 250th anniversary of the birth of the United States of America, I find myself reflecting on how fortunate we are to live in this country and how important it is beyond. Bianca. Bianca. Somebody. Bianca. Bianca. Come on, find out.

[Twin Cities Savers Announcer]

I'm looking.

[Joe Soucheray]

And how important it is that we never take that blessing for granted. This year, St. Paul once again faced the possibility of celebrating Independence Day without fireworks. To some, fireworks may seem like a simple tradition. To many of us, they are much more. They are an outward expression of gratitude.

[Chris Reavers]

Bianca Vernig.

[Joe Soucheray]

Thank you, Bianca Vernig. He was taking her to task. They are an outward expression of gratitude for the greatest experiment in self government the world has ever known. They are a reminder of the sacrifices made by generations of Americans who secured and defended the freedoms we enjoy. Today at Shore Warrior, we're just a group of wheelbarrow salesmen. We're also a veteran owned and veteran managed Minnesota company. When we learned that our community might once again lose this important tradition, we decided to step forward and help sponsor the fireworks display. We did so because we believed that freedom deserves to be celebrated. Celebrated. We believe that every child looking up at the night sky should see those bright bursts of light and be reminded that they live in a nation where life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are not merely words on paper, but ideals worth protecting. We hope that when the fireworks light up the St. Paul sky this July, Minnesotans from every background, every neighborhood and every political persuasion can gather under the same blanket of light and remember what unites us rather than what divides us at the same. At the same time, I carry a heavy heart about the future of Minnesota. Recently, my daughter, her husband and their young family made the difficult decision to leave Minnesota for Omaha. They are exactly the kind of people every state should want to keep. Hard working professionals in their early 30s, raising a family, contributing to their community and trying to build a better future for their children. Yet between the rising costs of daycare, increasing property taxes and the growing financial pressures facing young families, they concluded that they could no longer achieve their goals here. Their decision was not political. It was practical. They simply wanted to do best they could for their family. And that should concern all of us. Minnesota's future depends not on keeping millionaires and billionaires who can live almost anywhere, but on keeping the young families, entrepreneurs, skilled workers, teachers, nurses, tradespeople and small business owners who form the backbone of our community. The fireworks we sponsor this year are a celebration of America, but they are also a reminder of our responsibility as citizens. We must protect what has made this country great while working together to make Minnesota a place where the next generation can thrive. Not as Republicans, not as Democrats. As Minnesotans, if we can focus on responsible government accountability, opportunity, education and the common good, we can stop the slow drain of our state's future. I would like to add my own sentence here if he doesn't mind. Also, if we stop electing professional activists who don't take our interests into account. Back to Tom we can reduce waste and fraud. We can create opportunities for young families. We can keep our best and brightest here at home. The American story has always been one of people coming together to solve problems that seem bigger than themselves. Minnesota's story can be the same the 4th of July as the fireworks rise above St. Paul this 4th of July, as the fireworks rise above St Paul, I hope we take a moment to be grateful for this remarkable nation, grateful for those who came before us and committed to leaving a stronger Minnesota for those who come after us. God Bless Minnesota and God Bless the United States of America. Best Regards, Tom Cullen, CEO Power Assist Technologies. Home of the Chore Warrior. So you know what that is? Electric wheelbarrow.

[Matthew]

Smart idea.

[Joe Soucheray]

Yeah, that is. He might as well have addressed this to the Minneapolis Park Board or either the St. Paul of Minneapolis City Council.

[Kenny Olson]

That's too many words for either one of those boards.

[Joe Soucheray]

Let me read this paragraph again and then parse it. This Fourth of July, as the fireworks rise above St. Paul, I hope we take a moment to be grateful for this remarkable nation, grateful for those who came before us and committed to leaving a stronger Minnesota for those who come after us. I don't believe that is the hope of any Mississippi. I do not believe Mysterians are grateful for this nation. On the contrary, they hold it in contempt. I don't believe Mysterians are grateful for those who came before us. I don't believe Mysterians are committed to leaving a stronger Minnesota for those who will come after us. I believe Minnesotans are destructive, dark people who bring nothing to the table because they've never learned anything, anything, accomplished anything, or worked at anything. And as I said yesterday, I blame in large part the failed academy which has been a leading weapon carrier for the mystery. I also received many emails wanting me to understand. Here I I printed it out wanting to me under wanting me to understand that at the American America has the America 250 time capsule. It will be buried in Philadelphia this weekend.

[Matthew]

Hopefully it's not like the one that we dug up in St. Paul that was full of water and all the crap was.

[Joe Soucheray]

Every state is submitting something to be contained in the time capsule.

[Kenny Olson]

Oh boy. Oh, boy. What's up?

[John Height]

Ours.

[Joe Soucheray]

What do you think ours is?

[Matthew]

Red mega hat.

[Kenny Olson]

Something to do with. Something to do with fraud, I would hope.

[Joe Soucheray]

No, the fraud.

[Kenny Olson]

The flag.

[Joe Soucheray]

The flag. Yeah. We sent him the fraud flag. Now think about something. In 250 years that. That fr. That flag of Minnesota will either be unknowable, it'll mean nothing to somebody who opens it 250 years from now, or it will be the flag flying over the the country.

[Matthew]

50. 50. You're saying it is or it isn't.

[Joe Soucheray]

In 250 years the American flag could very well not. If. If we continue the way we're going, the American flag might not be flying over the country. Other states gave marvelous things, but Walls didn't have time to worry about it. So he shot him. The fraud flag.

[Matthew]

What. What would be a good Minnesota D donation? In all seriousness?

[Joe Soucheray]

Some walleye.

[Matthew]

Frozen walleye.

[Kenny Olson]

Do you know what the new Minnesota flag represents when you look at it? Do you see Minnesota?

[Joe Soucheray]

No, I don't.

[Kenny Olson]

The eight pointed star represents the North Star. Polaris, Roseau, Minnesota honoring Minnesota's nickname as the North Star State. The dark blue flag field features an abstract outline of the geographic shape of Minnesota. Boy. Abstract. I'll say.

[Joe Soucheray]

Let's see. Let's just see what the people around us said. Iowa sent a letter from the governor. An 18. I'm sorry. A 1914 Belgian relief coin and an International Space Station medallion. All right. Let's see what.

[Matthew]

It's a weird flex.

[Joe Soucheray]

Let's see what North Dakota sent Johnny's home state.

[Matthew]

The very.

[Joe Soucheray]

See what North Dakota state. The Upper Dakota statue of state summary. Theodore Roosevelt presidential library coin and photographs with labels. That's all more inventive than this lazy ass wall sending the fraud flag. South Dakota letter from the governor and a poetry book. Ding ding.

[Matthew]

Yeah.

[Joe Soucheray]

Wisconsin.

[Matthew]

Here we go.

[Joe Soucheray]

They're gonna be creative set of six letters. Eagle feather and photo. A hog coin. I don't know. Does that mean Harley owners group? It could very well. Harley Davidson's in Wisconsin. Forrest. I'm struggling to read this because what the state sent is in agate type. And my eyes struggling. Forest county keychain or so I can't read it. Great Lakes Tribal Council pin.

[Matthew]

Yeah.

[Joe Soucheray]

And a veterans pin.

[Matthew]

Minnesota missed the boat on Minnesota.

[Joe Soucheray]

Really fell down on this. Didn't.

[John Height]

Man.

[Matthew]

You got the Mississippi River. You got native.

[Kenny Olson]

The Mississippi is represented in our Flag. Don't you see it?

[Joe Soucheray]

No, I don't.

[Kenny Olson]

Well, that's what the light blue represents. Water.

[Matthew]

Oh, it follows the path all the way down to Louisiana.

[Kenny Olson]

Well, in an abstract way, man.

[Matthew]

Oh, you have to see it. You got to think it through to see it.

[Kenny Olson]

You've got to see it in your mind.

[Joe Soucheray]

I want to tell you about something and then go. Go to the second reason why this is the most most important Nevada throw in there.

[Matthew]

A poker chip. 500 poker chip.

[Chris Reavers]

The lady of the night.

[Joe Soucheray]

I mean, as long as you ask,

[Matthew]

I want to know what Nevada I

[Joe Soucheray]

can find it for you.

[Matthew]

Yes. What did Nevada throw in?

[Kenny Olson]

Is that uncommon kraken in the middle of the desert.

[Joe Soucheray]

I got glasses on that. Yeah. Nevada sent a battle born document, a Nevada State museum commemorative coin and a set of gambling chips and tokens.

[Matthew]

Okay, thank you. Well represented as well they should have. Yeah, why not 250 years.

[Kenny Olson]

So when are they gonna. When are they gonna open this up?

[Joe Soucheray]

In 250 years.

[Kenny Olson]

And they're gonna say, what is all this bullshit?

[Joe Soucheray]

You know what they'll do when they open? They'll have the BSO meter.

[Chris Reavers]

Oh, I didn't even think of that.

[Joe Soucheray]

Especially when they see the flag of Minnesota.

[Matthew]

Well, did you see what happened with the one in St. Paul? They dug up one. A time capsule from 1976, opened it, it was full of water, all the paper was wet. Nothing was salvageable. It was a complete mishap.

[Chris Reavers]

Did it go?

[Joe Soucheray]

Yeah, kind of like the day they were Titanic. The Titanic horn, Eric. Missy, here's a Titanic horn.

[Matthew]

We drove down there with the kids. We had to. I went open all the windows.

[Joe Soucheray]

Open the windows back up.

[Kenny Olson]

Explain all of this. What the hell are you talking about?

[Joe Soucheray]

The Titanic had various pieces of it circulating on a tour of the country. And the. One of the signal horns came to St. Paul and it was going to be. And I thought it would shake the earth. And it was on a Sunday in the winter.

[Matthew]

Protective earwig.

[Chris Reavers]

Wear your earplugs.

[Joe Soucheray]

I mean, I thought this could cause an earthquake. And I don't think virtually nobody heard.

[Matthew]

It was Eric Michian.

[Kenny Olson]

Didn't they test it ahead of time?

[Joe Soucheray]

I don't know. It just went like this.

[Kenny Olson]

This is. This is the same thing when I was on Twitter where I'd say watch to the end and there was nothing.

[Chris Reavers]

Nothing. God, he would get me once, once a week with that crap.

[Matthew]

You know, I love Eric Michey. And that was his first one. His second one was the down the

[Joe Soucheray]

Mississippi floating down the river in A garage.

[Kenny Olson]

Oh, that was that guy?

[Matthew]

Yeah.

[Kenny Olson]

Oh, that guy's awesome.

[Joe Soucheray]

He was a hell of a guy.

[Kenny Olson]

He's awesome.

[Joe Soucheray]

He brought the whistle to town, baby. And 300,000 people.

[Chris Reavers]

I actually have the audio of it.

[Matthew]

Here it is.

[Chris Reavers]

The whistle from the Titanic.

[Joe Soucheray]

Oh, that's it.

[Kenny Olson]

Tom and Jim's raft had more amenities than that pontoon that he took down the river.

[Joe Soucheray]

Had a window framed out. There was no glass. He made it all the way.

[Kenny Olson]

He's my hero, man. I love that.

[Joe Soucheray]

He made it all the way. G Ellers. It's officially riding season. Get up to Eco Fun Motorsports in Forest Lake or Burnsville. Electric bikes on state, on sale starting at 899.

[Joe Soucheray]

thanks to Alpha News because I just really doubt one of the problems and one of the reasons we're facing the Waterloo moment is that conventional media are of no help in recognizing the problem. This again is from Alpha News and I would believe the citizens of Minneapolis, particularly those with children, are facing their Waterloo with the school board. We have a Minneapolis school board member calling for the calling for deconstructing views on white centered Eurocentric education. Her name is Lori North Orville. Her comments came during a discussion of a proposed $105 million facility for the district's Anishinaabe Academy. A Minneapolis school board member urged her colleagues and constituents to stop looking at things through the lens of what we know as very white centered eurocentric education. Laurie Norvell's comments came during a June 9 discussion of a resolution to building a new facility for the district's Anishinaabe Academy, to which I would submit is nothing different than what we discovered yesterday, that St. Paul wants to build an Afrocentric academy. Board chair Colin Beachy said the resolution was about moving the planning work forward, not whether the project will happen. The decision will come at a future meeting, he said. All present board members voted in favor of the residents resolution. Norville, this is Lori. Norville said she's received a lot of feedback from constituents on the proposed project, which has drawn security drawn security, which has drawn maybe controversy because of its $105 million price tag. And if that's the initial price tag and not a brick has gone into the ground, that's gotta be 200 million by the time the fraud's done.

[Kenny Olson]

At least.

[Joe Soucheray]

I know that there have been some concerns around enrollment and I would challenge us all to try to look at this. I know it's going to be hard because we are so used to looking at things through the lens of what we know as a very white centered Eurocentric education. We go to school when the bell rings. We have this many kids in a class with this many teachers. We have this ratio. We do all of these things right. Norville commented, she's a race right User. She then said, we need to be open to thinking about it in a different way because I know when I'm thinking about it, that's how, that's what I know. That's my experiences through that Eurocentric or White lens. And so I would challenge us to deconstruct our ideas on that, deconstruct the things that we're comfortable with and really think about what is best for our Native American students and their families. Families. Norville reminded her colleagues that the purpose of building a whole new space is so that families will feel comfortable in that space. Oh, I'm holding myself back. Please do remind yourself of the harm that we have caused in our Native American community with boarding schools. We can do better. We can do better by this. So I will be voting in favor of this. I do not want us to put our Indigenous students and families aside anymore. She said. Chair Beachy then thanked Norville for her mic drop moment. According to Minneapolis Public schools, the new K through 8 Anishinaabe Academy facility would serve as a location to educate and empower urban Indigenous students through cultural revitalization. Josiah Padley, a policy fellow at the center for the American Experiment, questioned in a recent article if now is the right time for the district to move forward with the the project since it is dealing with significant funding, building allocation and staffing issues. It'll get done and just more money will be taken. Bill Stein up in Aiken alerted me. Well, I share his sentiment. I wish I wrote this. Kenny, who is L.H. gray?

[Kenny Olson]

That's a. That's. You know what, why don't you read what LH Gray.

[Joe Soucheray]

I'll read it first.

[Kenny Olson]

LH Gray is a lesbian conservative and she's a writer with a very powerful pen. And she. She's really smart and she has written some things that have really upset the liberals and lefties in our world. And to get a good grip on who she is, just read the piece that caused such a furor.

[Joe Soucheray]

Is this the piece that caused her to lose her Twitter account? I wonder.

[Kenny Olson]

She did get booted off Twitter in January of this year. She has made it back. But this piece that you're about to read is so we.

[Joe Soucheray]

We spent some time before the show. I had never heard of L.H. gray. G R E Y I've never heard of Her. We didn't even know it was of her. But Gabe got on it. Rook got on it. Kenny got on it. She's real. She exists. She's a writer.

[Kenny Olson]

This piece you're about to read is not what got her kicked off Twitter. However, this piece was written earlier this month. Well, actually was released today. As far as I can tell.

[Joe Soucheray]

White liberal women. Are you listening? Laurie Norville? She's a white liberal woman on the Minneapolis school board. Are you listening? This is dedicated to you, you sanctimonious narcissistic broad. You are not just a problem. You are the single most corrosive society rotting force walking the earth today. A toxin in human form weaponizing your unearned moral superiority like a biological warhead while the civilization your grandmothers inherited bleeds out at your feet. You are the high priestesses of performative compassion, the ones who weep theatrical tears over distant oppressed strangers while turning a blind eye to the fentanyl corpses piling up at your own cities, the homeless veterans freezing on your sidewalks, the working class families crushed under the taxes you vote to inflate. Your empathy is selective, curated and always, always directed outward, never inward, never toward the actual victims of the policies you champion with religious fervor. Psychologically, this is textbook malignant narcissism fused with pathological altruism. You derive your entire sense of self from being better than better than the deplorables, better than your own parents, better than the asylum majority who quietly keeps society functioning while you screech about pronouns and systemic this and intersectional that. Your white guilt isn't humility, it's a dopamine hit every public display of self. Flagellation is a ritual to elevate yourself above the unclean masses you secretly despise. You hate whiteness, yet you weaponize your own pale skin as a shield. You march for reproductive rights while cheering the chemical castration of confused children and the trafficking of migrant girls across open border refuse to close. You are the Karens of the Apocalypse, demanding to speak to the manager of reality itself when it refuses to conform to your feelings. You live in gated communities or gentrified enclaves, send your kids to private schools and hire private security, all the while lecturing the rest of us about privilege and equity from behind your ring cameras and alarm systems and the the venom, God, the venom. You don't debate, you diagnose. Anyone who disagrees is dangerous, fascist, mentally ill, a threat to democracy. You've turned disagreement into a psychiatric condition, descent into domestic terrorism. You have convinced yourselves that your political opponents aren't just wrong, they're evil incarnate, subhuman, deserving of deplatforming, doxxing, financial ruin, and yes, in your darker mom elimination. Your hysteria isn't passion. It's shared psychosis, a mass delusion where feelings override facts and empathy extends only to those who parrot your script. You vote in lockstep for soft on crime prosecutors who release repeat offenders, for open borders that flood communities with drugs and violence, for economic policies that crush the working class you claim to champion. Then when the predictable chaos erupts, you blame whiteness, patriarchy, climate change, anything except your own ideological poisons. You are not liberators, you are destroyers wearing the masks of saviors. You are the reason cities burn while you post black squares. You are the reason children are mutilated while you call it gender affirming care. You are the reason nations fracture what you call borders racist. You are the reason truth dies while you call lies my truth. You've weaponized your perceived fragility, your tears, your anxiety, your trauma to silence opposition. The culture itself has been neutered by your emotional terrorism. The world sees you now not as compassionate warriors, but as spoiled, entitled reality, denying tyrants in yoga pants wielding guilt and hysteria like switchblades. You are not the future, you are the cancer eating it. And cancers don't negotiate. They get cut out, root and branch. Enjoy your brief moment of unchallenged sanctimony, darlings. The reckoning doesn't ask permission, it just arrives. L.H. gray.

[Kenny Olson]

Now that must have appeared elsewhere if it was sent to you.

[Joe Soucheray]

It was. Billy Stein came across it.

[Kenny Olson]

Okay.

[Joe Soucheray]

And?

[Kenny Olson]

And then we found it. Gabe and I found it on. And Matt on something called Godlike Productions Today, printed at 6:30 this morning.

[Joe Soucheray]

I might read this every day.

[Chris Reavers]

You know what it reminded me of? That what you were just saying it reminded me of this clip that we've featured several times on the show.

[Matthew]

I've chosen to cross different parts of the media world, done the work so

[Joe Soucheray]

that I'm qualified to be in each one.

[Matthew]

I never considered myself color the issue.

[Joe Soucheray]

I considered my qualifications the issue.

[John Height]

Well, David, you know that that's a whole nother long conversation about white privilege and things that you have the privilege of doing that people of color don't have the privilege of.

[Joe Soucheray]

How do I have the privilege of white privilege?

[John Height]

David, by virtue of being a white male, you have white privilege. With this whole long conversation, I don't have time to get into Areva.

[Joe Soucheray]

I hate to break it to you, but you should have been better prepped.

[Kenny Olson]

I'm black.

[John Height]

Okay, then I stand.

[Joe Soucheray]

That's a mic drop.

[Chris Reavers]

David Webb. David Webb was the Fox host, analyst, having. Remember Areva Franklin was the guest peddling this absolute bs and she went, oh, well. Well, you know, because. And then he went on to list off his accomplishments, by the way.

[Joe Soucheray]

And I. I have to say it. I don't have to. I want to. Much of what she's writing could be applied to Trump your empathy. He doesn't have any empathy.

[Kenny Olson]

Here it comes.

[Joe Soucheray]

Psychologically, this is textbook malignant narcissism. Of course it is. Same thing. I'll stop right there because this does apply so wonderfully to this school board member. Oh, my God.

[Kenny Olson]

L.H. gray, if you're a conservative on Twitter, you can. All you have to say is, boy, I really like the American flag. And that's grounds for people to complain and get you booted off Twitter. So she said something on Twitter and a bunch of people protested in January of this year got her kicked off. She's back on Twitter, and I just want to read you her bio that describes her top of the page on Twitter.

[Joe Soucheray]

Yeah.

[Kenny Olson]

L.H. gray. T.M. she's got a blue check mark. She does that so she can print her stuff on Twitter. Long form. She calls herself alpha female artist and writer. Exorcist of the narratives. Visceral. Hell bitch, Atheist. And there's a picture of her, and it's a goth like picture. She's attractive, but scares the hell out of me. And she's holding a knife that is bigger than this knife.

[Joe Soucheray]

Serrated.

[Matthew]

Okay.

[Kenny Olson]

And this is a big ass knife.

[Joe Soucheray]

I. I love lesbian and gay conservatives because their viewpoint has been refined to a sharper point.

[Kenny Olson]

Absolutely.

[Joe Soucheray]

They can bring thoughts to the conversation that are far deeper than most people. And I just enjoy the hell out of the fact that she's a lesbian because that really throws the Karens for a loop.

[Kenny Olson]

Well, that's what I want. I was gonna say the white liberal women tend to think that they can represent gay men, gay women, et cetera, et cetera, black people. When in fact, nothing's further from the truth.

[Joe Soucheray]

Who's the gay writer that I love? Sullivan. Something Sullivan, who's always.

[Kenny Olson]

Don't know.

[Joe Soucheray]

But let me tell you something.

[Matthew]

How are they gonna read this, though? Who's gonna show this to them so they see it?

[Chris Reavers]

Andrew Sullivan.

[Joe Soucheray]

Andrew Sullivan.

[John Height]

Yeah.

[Joe Soucheray]

Just based on reading this piece by L.H. gray. She's one hell of a writer. She can spin some sentences. I might read this every day, if not on the show, to myself, here's the deal. Why is this a Waterloo moment? Well, can Minneapolis afford a $105 million Anishinaabe Academy? And what precisely is the point of that? The point of it, according to this silly school board member, the point of it is so the Anishinaabe would have a physical place where they would feel safe. Why wouldn't her goal be to make the current schools safer if, in fact. In fact, there are kids there who don't feel safe because they're Native American? Why can't that be made a goal of the school board to make sure kids are safe?

[Chris Reavers]

That's a good point.

[John Height]

Yeah.

[Joe Soucheray]

Or are you going to come up with the 105 million? And that's 105 million on a wish list. That's 200 million. When you're done with the fraud, that's like light rail. Oh, it's only going to cost a billion. By the time you're done with the fraud, it's 3 billion.

[Chris Reavers]

Someone had pointed out, too. When is the light rail fraud going to start to surface?

[Joe Soucheray]

Well, when it story yesterday, we had. I just think that the Twin Cities citizens, those who work there are many who don't. Those who work for a living. Just that I don't care what your politics are, you actually work at a job where a performance is expected. Period. That's it. That's the kind of. You have a job. I don't care what it is. From brain surgeon down to whatever. What we do. What we do. Yeah. From the top to the bottom, from brain surgeon to what we do. If you work and production is expected and you fulfill that production, your Waterloo moment is, how long will you have a city to live in if these professional activists keep running the show? And the answer is, you won't have long. We. We won't have long.

[Chris Reavers]

And we're seeing it. We've talked about mass migration for years on this show. It's actually. That's data. That's factual data. That's actually happening.

[Joe Soucheray]

The Minnehaha Dog park is not a Waterloo about dog parks. Not at all. The Minnehaha Dog park is a Waterloo challenge about how the common man and woman in Minneapolis are represented by the political class. That's the Waterloo. The Waterloo for the Minneapolis school board is not a new building. The Waterloo is why is a new building necessary? Where does that mean you failed elsewhere? There's I. You don't have 105 million. And you should be holding many, many open meetings with Anishinaabe and others to find out if this is truly necessary because it's certainly isn't affordable. I didn't know this was on their agenda. I didn't know a new, completely new school was on the agenda. And why the Balkanization? Why can't we make the schools comfortable and safe enough for all kids that this wouldn't be necessary? But that's only a worthy goal if you're not a mysterian. If you're a mysterian. The oppressed are disproportionately risen to a position that leaves the common person behind paying for it, but behind. It's the most important show we've done because we finally defined what to do about the Mystery. The mystery is an intense initiative on the part of all citizens to think long and hard about what they're voting for. And please, if you disagree, agree with me. Please lecture me and tell me where I can go or who I can talk to to see the beauty and joy brought to us by progressives. Somebody please point that out.

[Chris Reavers]

Cite us an example, please.

[Joe Soucheray]

And I will go,

[Chris Reavers]

how about 38th in Chicago?

[Joe Soucheray]

That's an example where you couldn't send me because it's malignant. I idleness that has resulted in a dumpster fire. I bet you want to hear about garage doors.

[Chris Reavers]

How about your garage door? Would that be an example?

[Joe Soucheray]

Well, it's a hell of a problem. If you need a new door, you need, you need Precision garage Door. They have models of doors for every budget. You bring out the designer, they got the catalog boy, you go through there, look at the pictures and go, well, I'll take that one.

[Matthew]

Okay.

[Joe Soucheray]

And right now you can get up to $400 trade in credit for your old garage door when you purchase a new door from Precision Door. That will increase the value of your home, save energy, provide better security. If you're, if your door is fine, but you don't like the way she's acting, maybe it closes a little crooked or makes a funny noise. Book a $79 safe and sound package. They'll have a 25 point safety inspection. They'll lube it up. They'll tell you, yeah, you got years left on this baby, but this better be fixed.

[Chris Reavers]

Oh, yeah, let's go.

[Joe Soucheray]

Here's a man who spends hours in hardware stores Sifting through the nuts and bolts of life, Joe Sucere.

[Matthew]

[Kenny Olson]

I own a suit from Jaime's Ultimate

[Matthew]

[Chris Reavers]

I know the guy that bought that last year and that is a spectacular, spectacular package.

[Matthew]

All right. For you and your wife or your girlfriend, a two night double queen room stay with water pipe, park passes, Metropolis Resort. It's a great deal.

[Chris Reavers]

[Chris Reavers]

Speaking of that, you only have five days left of summer.

[Joe Soucheray]

Yeah, US 21sters are heading towards a tough winter, a long fall.

[Matthew]

Oh my God. Whatever turns your key there, cowboy.

[Joe Soucheray]

Only because they come to us all the way from Marleth park in Mpumalanga, South Africa. From the travel Joe last week on a podcast, Kenny was wondering about bugs. Here there are bugs and insects. Of all these, the one that brings the most concern is mosquitoes. With malaria, we use local products to keep these from causing any issues. The other insects and bugs aren't an issue. And we deal with them by keeping both the inside and outside of the house clean. We never leave dirty dishes, glasses, etc. Around. I always hand wash these in hot soapy water so the bugs aren't attracted.

[Chris Reavers]

On this day, Joe, today is June 16th.

[Joe Soucheray]

Well, on this day in 1854, arriving in St. Paul, the steamer Galena delivered. The Kohler delivered cholera along with its passengers. Cholera's last occurrence was cholera. Cholera's last occurrence in Minnesota would be in 1873.

[Chris Reavers]

On this day, Joe, today is June 16th.

[Joe Soucheray]

In 1863, the evil General Henry H. Sibley and his troops left Camp Pope near present day Redwood Falls, on a campaign against the Dakota. That's probably where you get. Pope county, huh?

[Matthew]

I bet.

[Joe Soucheray]

On this day, June 16th, didn't we just have this? The bones of the Minnesota. This is June 18th. No. June 16th, the bones of Minnesota man were uncovered by a road crew near Pelican Rapids. Despite its name, the glacial humans. Oh, yeah. The glacial human skeleton was likely that of a teenage girl. We had one the other day. That was a plaster. It was a fake one. This was real. On this day, Joe, June 16th is today in 1945. Always impresses me the last Navy tanker built at the Savage shipyard was launched. The Wakissa is one of 18 ships manufactured there for the war effort. And they got those babies into the ocean.

[Kenny Olson]

Have you ever seen photos of those things going under the Mendota Bridge?

[Joe Soucheray]

Yeah, because they didn't put the stuff on them yet, right?

[Kenny Olson]

Yeah, but they're so tall.

[Joe Soucheray]

Giant, like barges. Till they put the.

[Kenny Olson]

But it makes the. The Mendota look small. The photo I'm thinking of.

[Chris Reavers]

Yeah.

[Joe Soucheray]

On this day, June 16th in 1955, Mary Grant, the youngest of Sauk Center's fabled Grant sisters, she was born. She later played the French horn in venues around the world. World. So she had that going for her.

[Kenny Olson]

She related to Tina and Lena, our old friends from the state fair.

[Joe Soucheray]

Remember those two on this?

[Chris Reavers]

They were tough to get rid of, weren't they, Joe?

[Joe Soucheray]

Yeah, they were. But I loved when they hung around.

[Matthew]

All right, we're done now.

[Joe Soucheray]

Anyway.

[John Height]

Anything else?

[Joe Soucheray]

On this day, I couldn't shake them. On this day, June 16th in 1999, our little terrorist, Kathleen Salaya, a fugitive since 1974, was arrested in St. Paul, having lived under the name Sarah Jane Olson. Celaya was a presumed member of the Symbionese Liberation army, the group that kidnapped Patty Hearst. It was wanted for the attempted bombing of two police cars. She had been featured on the television show America Most Wanted a few months before her arrest. On this day in sports, disappointment history such.

[Chris Reavers]

Who'd we lose to on June 16?

[Joe Soucheray]

Well, on this day in 2022, the Golden State warriors won the NBA Finals with Andrew Wiggins, the former Timberwolf.

[Matthew]

Yep.

[Joe Soucheray]

Thank you, G. Ellers.

[Chris Reavers]

Yes.

[Matthew]

Now Carl Anthony Towns wins a former Timberwolf.

[Joe Soucheray]

Yeah.

[Chris Reavers]

That's four that won a title. Title within the Love won one.

[Joe Soucheray]

And who else?

[Chris Reavers]

Garnett.

[Joe Soucheray]

Garnett won one with Boston. Cleveland.

[Kenny Olson]

Come on.

[Chris Reavers]

And Carolina's got two Stanley Cups and

[Joe Soucheray]

they've got a bunch of Minnesotans on the team.

It is time once again that we check in with our guy, Mr. Money Talk. Josh Arnold is with us once again right here in garagelogic. And now is the time for you to do the same. So do not delay, do exactly what I did and pick up that phone and dial 952-925-5608. That number once again is 952-925-5608. When you call, you're going to get Josh and he is there for you for that. Free. Yep, I use the word free. 48 minute financial consultation with absolutely zero obligation. And he will always give you the straight talk. He will never give you the sugar coated advice. And he is on the line with us once again right here in Garagelogic. And boy, Josh, the new market company is number four by market capitalization. And your Mag 7 has now transitioned to the fabulous 10.

[John Height]

The fabulous 10 is coming. The fabulous 10. The fabulous 10 standing for frontier, artificial intelligence and big tech. That is the way the market is pricing things. The fabulous 10. So we take the Mag 7, Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, also Google, Facebook or Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia and Tesla. And then you add in the new publicly traded company, SpaceX. And then the two soon to be public companies, OpenAI and Anthropology and having money, I'm not going to say in all of these, but in several of these companies could help you improve overall portfolio performance. Now it's not going to be a straight up move as SpaceX has been straight up in the last three days since it's come public. There is going to be plenty of volatility Amongst these companies and in particular among SpaceX, OpenAI and Anthropic. The latter two, when they go public, could well be as expensive on a price to earnings basis and a price to sales basis as SpaceX is now. SpaceX has been increasing its revenues in the in the past few months, but it is still very, very pricey on a price to sales basis, particularly as its market capitalization has now path Amazon and it is approaching Microsoft market capitalization. All this for a newly public company. SpaceX is not a new company as it dates back to 2002, but it is a newly public company, so you do have to take that into account. Today's options started trading on SpaceX. That can also add to some of the volatility around the names and in the next week or so SpaceX will be added to the NASDAQ 100 and several other indices, meaning, you know, more shares will be tied to an index rather than around SpaceX. There is a lot of hype around the name, including some early investors who have seen SpaceX as a monopoly in rocketry. Space is, they say is 10 years ahead of the next rocket company. It has the potential with artificial intelligence through the XAI and it's a cash flow generator with its satellite communications network Starlink. So there's a lot wrapped up into this and there's always the possibility you'll probably see this in a lot of absolute advertisements of SpaceX and Tesla merging at some time. So that's a But that is not the reason to invest in SpaceX, nor a reason to invest in Tesla. Best to take those each on their own merit. But do bear in mind one thing that I have found are true is when you have a founder of a company still involved and involved active, it has 10 to produce some very, very good results. Separate from that, the Fed meets today and tomorrow with Warsh's Kevin Wash, the new Fed chief. His first press conference. I do not believe the Fed is going to make any moves on interest rate and recent activity around the price of oil could help diminish any inflation concern.

[Chris Reavers]

Excellent advice as always, Mr. Money Talk. You heard him jailers. Now is the time for you to be pick up the phone and make the call for that free 48 minute financial consultation again with zero obligation.

Enjoy the rest of your day. And we'll talk to you again tomorrow.

[John Height]

Look forward to it. Thanks Chris.
