I heart Radio. Foreign. Good evening everyone. Welcome to Stitchfield. I was expecting us to have more military strikes against Iran tomorrow. Axios, this kind of left leaning outlet was reporting that Trump was going to be having big meetings in the Situation Room with leaders of his military. Now the only reason you go into the Situation Room is if a situation is going on. You can discuss planning in the Oval Office. But now I'm thinking maybe, just maybe, this story was planted by President Trump himself. He had spoken to Axios to put pressure on Iran to make a deal. But my patience is running very thin with Iran. They say they're going to make a deal, say they're going to make a deal and always fall back on it. This is about stalling and the tactic that Iran uses over and over and over again. I think we need to get a beyond this. But President Trump has more patience than me. I think he knows that Iran is stalling, but he's not going to exhaust or he is going to exhaust every diplomatic effort before he unleashes hell on them. Again, this was a true social post that President Trump put out this afternoon. I have been asked by the Amir of Qatar, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia and the President of the United Arab Emirates to hold off on our planned military attack, the Islamic Republic of Iran, which was scheduled for tomorrow. President Trump goes on to write, in their opinion, a deal will be made which will be very acceptable to the United States of America. The deal will include importantly, no nuclear weapons for Iran. Now again, we have heard this all before. President Trump knows we've heard this all before. But before he goes and unleashes the might of the American military, I do think he wants to exhaust these prospects for a deal. This is Brent Sadler, former Navy Captain. I think it's important to note that those same countries were very disappointed that there weren't more stronger military attacks against Iran at one stage in this. And so now if there is potential for a deal, it's, it's, it's something that's not being seen very clearly. Perhaps there's fractures in the regime and outreach that we're not seeing yet. Now, here's the problem with this potential for a deal being leveled on us every day. It seems like it becomes a boy who cried wolf scenario. The markets respond every time we get word of a deal or no deal. A deal's on, a deals off. And investors of all kinds, not just in the markets, hate uncertainty. And right now, we have a lot of uncertainty in the Middle East. Now, I have certainty that President Trump will finish the job ultimately. But when that happens is where we become uncertain. This is General Wetherington. They certainly have a. Have a desire to limit the amount

[D]

of attacks or destruction that occurs, but they also have a desire to, you know, for stable economic and commercial use of the strait. And I think they're working toward that aim.

[B]

And I think deep down, Iran also shares that interest.

[D]

And it's good to hear that we're working toward that type of collaborative solution.

[B]

All right, he's talking about the other Arab states that are saying, hold off on this right now because they want peace as well, and they want to give it a try. Now, my other question is what kind of deal will hold with Iran? I mean, they can't be trusted. So even if you make a deal with them, I don't know how long all of this lasts without regime change. But you're not going to get regime change coming from the United States. It's just not going to happen, not under this president. And not that I want to get involved in all of that. The Iranian people need to be involved in that. But how are the Iranian people supposed to overthrow a brutal regime when they have no weapons or no real capability in doing so? So if we're stuck with any level of this regime in Iran, they are going to continue to be a problem. They will fester like a boil. Mark my words on this. Now, with me now, national security policy analyst for the Heritage Foundation. Andrew Harding is with us. Andrew, welcome to the program.

[D]

Thanks for having me, Grant.

[B]

All right, Andrew, what about your patience? You with me? Is it really thin on, hey, Iran's making a deal, they're making a deal, and then, you know, everything falls apart part?

[D]

I think you hit it right on the head here. I think the president has a lot of patience, and I'm grateful for that. But I think what he's showing tonight with this announcement is that his patience isn't infinite. I think what he mentioned in this post is that strikes were going to happen tomorrow. And so what the President is doing here is an application of peace through strength in which we've seen Operation Epic Fury degrade Iran's military. We've seen economic fury choke the economy to the point where Iran's having to dump oil in water because it doesn't have the storage space anymore. And finally, what you can call a diplomatic fury in which the President and his team have engaged with Iran. They've been willing to talk, but Iran clearly hasn't come to the table. So what this post shows me in this announcement shows me that first, the President is working with Gulf countries to ensure that there is an alignment on what the US Actions are going to be. Secondly, it shows that the US Military responses are credible and that the Gulf countries, and in this case Iran should also understand that the President means business when he's willing to restart operations. And finally, Iran needs to stop playing with fire, otherwise the President's going to return fire. It's time to make a deal to end this conflict.

[B]

All right, Andrew, do you think that Iran will ever make a strong as rock deal? I mean, you would think they'd already be crying uncle by now. What is the hold up here? Why? You studied this region for a long time. Why is Iran so slow to make a deal even when they're being strangled off both physically and economically?

[D]

Well, first, I think the regime just with how it operates, it's not a very rational regime here. I think they very much have more of a theological edge. Of course, a Shia Muslim angle here in which there's a more of a theological angle to how they operate. They're not acting the same as say the United States and other countries around the world. They chant death to America, death to Israel. They want to destroy the state of Israel. That's not a rational state here. There are other Gulf countries, for example, through the Abraham Accords, that recognize that there's a value in working with Israel and having relations here. This Iranian regime wants to destroy those relations. But secondly, I think when we're thinking about this specific conflict, it's the fact that Iran thinks that they have a lot of leverage over the Strait of Hormuz. They understand that they can try to artificially raise gas prices, put pressure around the world and as a result, their strategies that countries put enough pressure on the United States to bring an end to this conflict to pull back. But the President is rightly holding, making clear with this blockade, for example, that it's the US Not Iran, that can control the strait, that we can hit them where it hurts when it comes to the economy, and as a result, remove the leverage Iran thinks it has in order to get a deal over the line. So Iran understands this type of strong messaging. That's the best way. It's this piece through strength application. That's the best way in order to get them to come to a deal.

[B]

All right, here's my prediction. We will get some framework of a deal maybe as early as tomorrow or the next day, and this one may end up looking good, but it'll get stalled out to the point where it ultimately falls apart three weeks from now, and then we're back in the same spot again. This is why, Andrew, look, I'm not a foreign wars guy. I'm not big on Ukraine. I don't want any part of that deal. But I'm at the point right now where I say, you know what? President Trump ought to just go in there. He ought to take care of business, he ought to take out critical infrastructure, do everything he can do to remove now the third layer of this regime, and finally wash our hands of this and let the Iranian people take over. Am I totally off base here? No.

[D]

I am cautiously optimistic that tomorrow, and as the President made clear in his tweet that there's going to be some type of serious progress, something has changed. Something has changed in the President's calculus to the point to where he was going to reach restart military operations because Iran wasn't coming to the table in a serious manner. And now he believes, to the point where he believes that nuclear weapons will be discussed, that he will finally see a deal or a proposal that he can get past the first line because it finally is going to be serious. Now, to your point, we shouldn't be trusting the Iranian regime. They have proven time after time you can't trust them. That's why the President's not going to worry so much about trust, but more so on verification. That's why peace through strength is enforced here. Operation Epic Fury degraded Iran's military, so they can't hide anymore. They cannot hide. They don't have the economic might to do that. They're now forced wide in the open. The President has all the cards, and now it's in Iran's best interest to make that deal and end this conflict.

[B]

Yeah, well. And as you know, and most of our viewers know, the problem with the Obama deal was there was no ability to really verify anything in there. And they were basically given a green light to keep going with that nuclear program. I'm sure President Trump, any deal he has, will have a tried and true verification system in place. I just think this, this country is going to be around festering for a while. That's the scariest thing for me. Andrew Harding, I appreciate you coming on. Great work at the Heritage Foundation. We love, we love them for putting so many of you guys on loan to us. We appreciate you.

[D]

Happy to do so. Thank you.

[B]

Absolutely. Thank you. All right, I want to turn now to the rise of teen takeovers. Have you seen this? Crazy. Now, this is in D.C. i'm going to play it from the beginning here. This is a fight that broke out in a chipotle in D.C. navy Navy Yard. These are thugs. These are animals. They are, I mean, it is a disaster in here as they're scaring kids that were in this restaurant. What an absolute disgrace. Sick and deranged individuals that I think every single one of them needs to go to jail. The question then becomes, as you look at this chaos, throwing high chairs at them, as you look at the chaos, what needs to happen? Jeanine Pirro brought up something very interesting. Maybe the parents can be held accountable. Maybe you start going after the parents in situations like this. Remember, Jeanine Pirro is the top dog prosecutor in D.C. under the federal government roll.

[D]

Jeanine Pirro, or committing criminal offenses like we saw in Chipotle. We're coming for you and we're coming for your parents. If your teen parents is a curfew violator, you're subject to a 500 fine each and every time.

[B]

And if there are crimes under contributing

[D]

to the delinquency of a minor, you

[B]

face up to six months in prison. The problem is my guest parents are absent. They're not going to care. They're not going to see this news conference. They're not even going to know their kids were involved in all of this. Now, I'm told the investigation is underway to go track down all of those individuals. But this has become a huge problem all around the country. There's other video too, from another angle, which you can see just how bad it actually got inside of here. And again, this is happening all over D.C. and many other blue cities across the country. So again, you've got to go after the kids. You've got to go after them and track them down. Here's Jeanine Pirro.

[D]

And I am not shy about looking for Jail time.

[B]

The people of the district have had enough.

[D]

And we do not want this increasing

[B]

as these teens run wild through our neighborhoods. Now, she was with Marian Bowser, the mayor there. There will be a city council meeting tomorrow. Jeanine Pirro wants the curfew extended. A longer curfew, meaning get these kids off the streets. Why? Because they simply cannot handle it. I mean, we are watching literally the destruction of humanity inside these, these communities where there are no parents, there's no male role models, there's no enforcement of crime really in D.C. either. And of course, chaos and violence and destruction flourishes. All right, speaking of violence and chaos, I don't know if you heard about this shooting in San Diego this afternoon at a mosque in San Diego. This is very interesting. There are now five people dead, three, including the security guard at this mosque. The two others that were found dead are believed to be the shooters, age 17 and 19. Apparently, when police responded within four minutes of this shooting, the shooters fled into a car and then took their own lives. Now, of course, this needs to be investigated as a hate crime right off the bat, if that's what it really is. No motive can be ignored here. Here it is. Because of the Islamic center location, we are considering this a hate crime until it's not. That's common sense. I'm okay with that. But here's what I'm warning you. Don't jump to conclusions. The mainstream media is going to paint this out to be, oh, it's got to be right wing extremists going after the Muslims. Now, one of the FOX contributors, a former FBI agent, raised a very interesting prospect about this mosque and what's going on in Iran right now. Now, this could play into it. Iran is 90, 95% Shia. This was a Sunni mosque, and I think it's the largest mosque, the largest Islamic center in San Diego. Very reminiscent of what happened to the synagogue, you know, a couple of months ago in West Bloomfield, Michigan. So these type of attacks are becoming a lot more common and we do need to pump the brakes and pause here and say what also could be the motivation. Now remember, there were kindergarten through third grade students there. None of them were hurt, thank God. If these shooters wanted to take out a lot of people, they could have. Which also plays into my mind about what was the motivation and who exactly was the target. We'll let investigators do their job before we jump to conclusions. Now, to President Trump and his vice grip on MAGA and the Republican Party. I mean, if you don't believe that President Trump still has the support of maga. All you need to do is look at every single election where his endorsement holds true like gold. This is the most powerful political endorsement in American history. How do we know that? He took out Louisiana Senator Bill Cassidy. This is an anti Trump hater, a whiner, a pusher of the unit party and tried to destroy President Trump. Well, President Trump got the last laugh as two candidates advance to a runoff. Cassidy is not one of them. Here's him whining last night. When you participate in democracy, sometimes it doesn't turn out the way you want it to. But you don't pout, you don't whine, you don't claim the election was stolen. You don't find a reason why. Oh, he's got to take a parting shot at President Trump. How did that work out for you, Cassidy? Not well. Now this, that was election night. When he lost before the polls were in. Jason Chaffetz, the former congressman on fox, took Cassidy to task. This is the reason why he lost. This guy is a loser. Reporters always love to ask that question. I'm a doctor. You give me all the information I can.

[D]

I make a decision, I move on.

[B]

I don't keep on going back, oh, what happened five years ago. I'm thinking about what's going to happen five years from now. Hang on, Jason. Let me finish. Let me finish.

[D]

Jason, you just touted everything you've done for the last five years.

[B]

Why can't you answer that question?

[D]

Did you or did you not?

[B]

Hey, Jason, Jason, if I, I want

[D]

you to answer that question, would you or would you not actually vote to

[B]

convict, knowing what you know now? It's a simple question. Yeah. Jason, you may go back and flagellate yourself over decisions in the past.

[D]

I do not

[B]

talk about voting to convict President Trump and his impeachment. And he wouldn't answer the question, how do you vote to impeach President Trump now? Especially knowing what we know, that's been proven now, I knew it back then. I told all of you back then. They knew it back then. But even if you want to give him the benefit of the doubt that he was duped by the media, duped by Adam Schiff, which what Republican should be in office if you're being duped by pencil neck, you still can't answer that question. You should have said, no, I made a mistake. But he can't because his hatred for President Trump. So here's the thing. You can disagree with President Trump, you just can't try to destroy him. As Lindsey Graham points out. So, Bill, Cassie's lost because he tried to destroy Trump. Massey's going to lose because he's trying to destroy the agenda. You can disagree with President Trump, but if you try to destroy him, you're going to lose because this is the party of Donald Trump. You know, I'm not a big fan of Lindsey Graham, but Lindsey Graham is a political operative. He knows not to turn on Trump. He does some things I don't like 100%. But he's not dumb enough to disagree with Trump and stick it to Trump and try to destroy Trump. Well, I'll bring you in now to discuss this J6 political prisoner and Republican congressional candidate in Florida. He's MAGA, to say the least. John Strand is back with us. John, welcome to the program.

[E]

That's right, Grant. Thank you for having me on. And we are sure glad to be back in the MAGA world here.

[B]

All right, so what do you make of this vice grip that President Trump has? His endorsements are so important. How do you run a campaign right now knowing what President Trump can do? He can make or break you, John.

[E]

Well, here's the thing. Like you said, Grant, MAGA means make America great again. Okay? President Trump coined that phrase and launched a historic campaign powered by the people, the citizens of this country that believe in America from 2016 to now, his his third term past the stolen election in the J6 debacle. But again, make America great again. That's the mission. That's the demand of the American people. So President Trump was elected by an overwhelming popular vote. That said, this is the agenda we want to advance. We really do need to unify not only around President Trump, but around that agenda, around that mission. So a lot of people are talking about the fracturing of maga, but President Trump really is the heartbeat. We the people are the heartbeat around him. And I think that it's that unity and that singularity of purpose to restore the greatness of America that President Trump is leading on. And people that get behind him will be successful and be excited. And people that try to sabotage that, like Bill Cassidy, are rightly cast aside.

[B]

All right, full transparency for right there. John and I are friends. We've been friends for a really long time. So when I give you this piece of advice, I'm not being a pomp TV guy, this buddy to buddy. I think you can be principled when you go into Congress and you have to be, yes. When it comes time and President Trump is trying to get something done and you see the writing on the wall that even your principals, you might have to vote away, you don't feel, feel like strongly about. But ultimately you win more than you would lose. You can't lose everything over principles. And this is where Cassidy, this is where Massey would break the mold. They would be willing to lose every. If you're a basketball coach, sometimes you got to change the game plan in order to win. It may not be what you want to do, but you know, you got your leaders back. How are you going to try to weigh that and do that when you go into Congress?

[E]

Great question, Grant. Now, let's be clear about Cassidy. He got it really wrong on the COVID shots that aren't vaccines that became poisonous. He was really wrong on J6 calling incitement to insurrection when no one was charged with insurrection. And it was immediately clear that it was an entrapment with weaponized government involvement. And now, of course, the book you can see behind me on the screen there, Patriot Plea tells the full story with all the details. So Cassidy's without excuse. It's actually just gross and we're very glad he's gone. But to your question about principles and politics, we are waging an incredible campaign to reclaim the republic down here in Naples, Florida. You can join the [e-mail] and here's an example. We just announced this week breaking news Grant, that we are the only candidate in Florida 19 that actually qualified for the ballot with petitions from the people in the district, almost 3,000 signatures necessary, and we gathered almost 4,000 and have qualified. Every other candidate hardly tried. They're basically buying their way onto the ballot with a $10,000 check because, let's face it, most people think they can just swoop in from states all over the place, come to Florida and buy a seat in Congress. But that's not the MAGA mentality. That is not what President Trump did. He had an army of Americans behind him. And John Strand, Patriot for Congress, is building that army, too.

[B]

Real quick, this is why I ask you, because Thomas Massie may be principled, but he got so principled he was going to have all of Republicans lose and he was willing to try to destroy President Trump as well and his agenda in that principality. So let me run this clip from Thomas Massie. Get a quick response from you on the other side. If I lose, I think it's going to disenfranchise a large part of the coalition that was formed to give us the majority here and to give us the White House. I'm holding up the Maha Wing of the party. The privacy warrant for spying wing of the party. The less war wing. John, let me just say this. It ain't going to fracture any of the of the base that got President Trump to where he is. A lot of us are very mad at Massie. A lot of us are happy. He's a principled guy. Not me. I'm mad at the guy. I think he's a little, He's a little whiny witch with a bee, quite frankly.

[D]

I agree with you.

[B]

Thoughts on that? Real quick there. We can see this is why we're buddies. John, real quick.

[E]

He's holding up the MAGA like, I mean, that's ridiculous. So his principles are himself. Thomas Massie's first and foremost principle is his own advancement. And how can you know that? Well, I don't know Thomas Massie personally. But you know them by their fruits. That's what the Bible tells us. And the fruits of his actions in Congress over a period of time have been to stonewall and sabotage the Republican Party, the MAGA agenda, and President Trump, who's our duly elected executive leader, time after time after time. So I'm not interested in hearing about your principles if you can't support and advance the agenda of the people.

[B]

All the way back to when I was at the nra, he was, he was literally a thorn in the side of the National Rifle association as well with gumming up the system with stupid things. John Strand, johnstrand.com is the website. Johnstrand.com Go help him out, buddy. Thank you as always for coming on.

I heart radio. Welcome back, everyone. Election integrity. There's nothing more important. Well, a California one woman has been charged and taken a plea deal for paying skid row homeless people in LA to register to vote. James o' Keefe apparently caught the scheme on camera. You haven't registered. I need to register you so I can get paid too. Okay, you guys, I need to get paid. So good work to James o' Keefe. Now. The DOJ went after her. She's taken a plea deal. She could get 20 years by my understanding of all of this. Here was what the scheme was about according to the doj. She would go get homeless people to sign these ballot initiatives, whether it's redistricting or whatever it might be, but you have to be registered to vote. So she registered the homeless people. She would get paid by each signature she collected and she passed some of that payment back to the homeless people. Bill Asali, the prosecutor, federal prosecutor in L. A Time.

[D]

So this is not an allegation, it's not a theory. This is a admitted form of election fraud which is extremely coercive, corrosive to our democracy. So now the question is how widespread,

[B]

and he says he doesn't know how widespread. They're going to get to the bottom of it. Here's what we also just learned over the weekend. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche says his team inside the DOJ and the FBI has uncovered all kinds of evidence that will prove ultimately that the 2020 election was stolen from President Trump. He specifically pointed out Georgia and Arizona and Michigan. Listen to this. Well, there's a ton of evidence that the election was rigged. That's not something the DOJ needs to. Needs to tell you about. There's been evidence about that for many, many years. What I can tell you is that we have more multiple investigations going on in Arizona and in, in Georgia and Fulton County, Georgia, and that's exactly what we're looking at. Question then becomes, why is this taking so long in the end, I guess I don't care how long it takes, as long as they get it right before the next election so we can fix the problem. Now the question becomes, is the problem fixed? I want to bring in Judicial Watch attorney, former Trump attorney and author of Defiant. Christina Bobb is back with us. Christina, it's good to see you.

[F]

Great to see you, Grant.

[B]

All right. Is the process fixed? No, it's not. Is it, Christina?

[F]

No, of course it's not fixed. It's not fixed. But I do take a lot of hope and excitement out of Todd Blanche acknowledging it. I mean, I think to my knowledge, this is the first attorney general or acting attorney general who really has come out and said, yes, the election was stolen. There's a lot of evidence of that. And now we're actually trying to get to the bottom of it. So that's incredibly encouraging. It does take a long time. It has taken a long time. So whether we see something before the midterms, you know, I don't know, hopefully before the next general election or the next presidential election, but it's encouraging to see that they're actually doing something about it.

[B]

All right, speaking of the midterms, so the Republican National Committee, used to work for them, now says they're going to dispatch a team of lawyers, a huge accrue of lawyers, hundreds of them. Listen to this. This is our chairman. And yes, the Democrats are trying to cheat every single day. That's why we have to have 130 lawsuits. We're bringing the hammer wherever we can. 32 states where we have lawsuits because the Democrats are, are trying to cheat every single day. It doesn't matter if it's redistricting. It doesn't matter if what they've done is they've allowed tens of millions illegals to come across our border, and they're trying to figure out ways to get them to vote. All right. In some respects, Christina, this makes me happy because the lawsuits are now, which means, I guess they're going to be reactive from the last time around, but proactive going into this next election. It seems like, we've always been so reactive. We're late to the game on all of this.

[F]

Yeah. And the RNC is doing a good job of bringing these suits. The 130 lawsuits that he's talking about are not all brand new. They span over the last several years. Some of them are going up to the Supreme Court. Some of them are really strong cases. For example, a case out of Arizona where the district court there and the ninth Circuit issued an injunction banning the state of Arizona to enforce their citizens only voting on their. On their ballots. So that's going up to the Supreme Court. That's an important case. And then they've got some more kind of, you know, a little bit more nuanced, not as specific cases, like a third party that wanted to change their name before the election, which is great. You know, it's good to enforce the law, but it's not necessarily going to be outcome determinative. And so. And this goes over, you know, several years, like I said. So the rnc, this is their playbook. This is what they do. And I don't mean that in a bad way. I mean, this is what they do. So that's good. I think sometimes they try to sell it as, oh, this is new. I'm being hard, and I'm coming out, you know, new doing this. And that's not really accurate. I get it. They got to do it because they want to rally up their base and get their base excited. But this is. This is steady state for rnc.

[B]

All right, so you've spent so many years literally fighting for exactly this cause in fact, at a state level, they charged you and that you still have stuff going on with that, for literally fighting for election integrity. If they came back to you again today and gave you complete control. Christina. Bob, what is the first thing you would do? Is there something that we need to be doing either we're not doing or not doing hard enough?

[G]

Yeah.

[F]

I would pass the Save America Act. I would tell the Republicans who are elected to actually do the will of their constituents and pass laws that make our election more secure. I would give backbones to all of the Republican attorney generals who are in these states that have been too timid to prosecute. Brad Raffensperger in Georgia now is trying to. The Republican Secretary of State in Georgia now wants to move the counting into a secret room for fear of, you know, election tampering. So now nobody can see what's going on in Georgia. The Republican Attorney General could do something about that. Kris Carr hasn't done squat for the state of Georgia and protecting Georgia's elections. So if I could do one thing in on the Republican side of the aisle, it would be giving backbones to people who are already in positions to make change but have chosen not to do so.

[B]

I guess what's so frustrating is the answer to my question was such common sense. That's such common sense. You get some backbone and pass the Save America Act. And for the most part would be in such a better spot than than we are right now. Christina. Bob, always good to see you. Thank you. And we'll talk again soon. I'm sure you too.

[F]

Thanks, Grant.

[B]

Absolutely. She's great. Pass the Save America act and get a freaking backbone, man. Oh, man. I mean, it is that simple, right? I wish they could do it. They can't for some reason. All right. California's insane transgender athlete policy was on full display over the weekend. You are not going to. Well, you may believe this story, but we're going to talk to a young female athlete who knows firsthand what it's like to lose to a dude. Okay. When you're a woman. Now, next.

Welcome back, everyone. I am sad to report that a young man I have been covering for a while now out in California, his name is AB Hernandez. He pretends be to to be a woman and he competes against girls in high school track athlete competitions and dominates at the state level. This is him in the long jump. Okay. He of course took first place in that. He took first place in the high jump. He took first place in the triple jump. Now, is any of this fair? Does anyone with common sense think this is fair? I don't even think the leaders of the competition think it's fair. I want you to take a look at this picture. There's a new law in California that if a transgender athlete wins, the second place finisher who really finished first, by all accounts, has to share the podium for first place. So they admit that there is a difference here. They've admitted it. Now, AB Hernandez, you would think would be somewhat gracious about this, but, no, this is about being selfish. And that selfishness showed when he was asked about his alleged victory after the competition. You're. You're a transgender competitor, and they're already duplicate medals. What do you. How do you feel about that? Do you feel like it takes something a little bit away from your winning, or does it not matter to you? What is your feeling on that?

[H]

Yeah, it feels like it takes it away. It just feels like it's not real. Like I'm just there to participate, basically. So.

[B]

Feels like it takes it away. You're the one who stole the battle from somebody else. Now, I don't mean to be mean spirited. You want to go be transgender. You're 17 years old now. In a year you'll be 18. You go do whatever you want, but you stay off the court. You stay off the track and field. You stay off the. Any field of competing against women. It just isn't fair. Well, I want to bring in now former NCAA women's soccer player Sophia Laurie. She's been a huge advocate for this alongside a California high school female track athlete who competed against Ab Hernandez as early as last week in the long jump. Olivia Viola is with us. Great to have you both on. Sophia and Olivia, welcome to the program. Olivia, I guess I'll start with you because you just competed against AB Hernandez. Tell me, what goes to your mind when you see him standing in the first place spot on that podium.

[H]

It's honestly nothing surprising. When you see males competing, you expect them to win. And like I've. I've heard girls say all the time, like, I compete basically knowing I'm going to lose, which is just terrible. And I feel like when I see, you know, I see a man walking with three blue first place medals, it's like, it. That's really hard for a biological female to do, let alone to. Not just to win one event, but to win three. Like, that is really hard to do. But when you see a male doing it, it's honestly like it's expected.

[B]

It has to be gut wrenching because, Olivia, I have to believe you work very hard and the other female athletes work very hard to get where you are. I look at it as if this is stolen from you.

[H]

Yeah. I mean, the advantage that a male has is like the testosterone is. Is the equivalent of a performance enhancing drug. I mean, it's. It's a crazy advantage, and it would take a woman so much more work to get to the same place that a male could get to. And that's not Being me being anti feminist, that's not me being anti trans. That's just, just fact. That's just biology.

[B]

Yeah. Sophia, you played soccer at a very high level. Playing college soccer, were you ever forced to play against men?

[G]

Thankfully, I never was. We didn't see this happening to the extremes that it is now. But I have three brothers, they all play soccer and they could all outrun me, kick the ball faster than me. I mean, I was a very aggressive player. Soccer is an aggressive sport and the thought of having to go up against one of my brothers and would lead to a huge harm. And so I am so heartbroken for the girls that are having to face this. At 10 years old, I knew it was my dream to play college sports and I was able to achieve that. Current 10 year old girls cannot say the same because of males invading girls sports.

[B]

Sophia, this is California. So now they passed this rule that they have to share the podium. Is that not, Sophia, virtually an admission that they realize that the playing field is not level?

[G]

Absolutely. The second CIF started saying we're gonna let the podium be shared, they are admitting that it is a male. Because if he was truly a girl, like cif, like Governor Newsom, like the California Capitol likes to claim that he is, then you wouldn't have to share a podium, you wouldn't have to share medals. So they're admitting that he's a male, but then they're still putting the girls up against him. They're still making the girls have to go to, through these mental gymnastics knowing they're gonna have to face a male. It's completely unright and this is not a proper solution.

[B]

All right, well, at these state finals, there were over 2,000 spectators. Most of them were against this idea of the transgender athlete there and saw the ridiculousness of it all. Olivia, I'll ask you, I know you're, you're, you're a strong young lady and you're not going to have any problems in life. You're on this program right now speaking out about this. But at some point, were you not questioning the adults in the room saying, hey, why aren't you protecting us from this?

[H]

Yes, that has been one of my biggest, like, points that I try to get out there is that you can't just say you support us and you can't just say you're doing the right thing and then not do it yourself. Which is what we see from so many of the adults in the room is they're letting the kids do the talking and they're letting Us just try to speak out for ourselves when it's like, why? Why is no adult trying to stand up for us?

[B]

How is the reaction been from you, Olivia, speaking out? I've seen you in a lot of places and, you know, look, Riley Gaines, probably a hero of yours, she's been such a great voice for all of this. She's become a friend of this program. Has it been hard for you? Do you have more people supporting you or more people coming after you?

[H]

I mean, there's always going to be, like, hate comments. There's always going to be those people. But for the most part, it's been a lot of support. But my reaction is always, like, you said, everybody will be like, we're so proud of you and you're doing the right thing. And it's like, okay, we'll do it yourself. I mean, when you look at the situation, to me, it's so ridiculous when you think about the vast majority of women who transition to be men are not going to compete with men because they know that they can't compete with men. But the vast majority of men who transition to be women want to compete with women because they can win.

[I]

Yeah.

[B]

It's flat out taking advantage of someone that is literally weaker than they are. And that's absolutely everything we're against on this program. I can tell you this, Olivia. They call them Stitchfield's army. Who watches this program. They're all proud of you and the other young ladies. So you just keep up the fight. You ever want to speak out, you got a home here. You can come on and talk anytime you want. Sophia, Laurie, I appreciate you being such a great advocate for this. Please keep us posted on your front on what we can do to help in California and beyond as well. Sophia, thank you both for coming on.

[G]

Thank you.

[B]

All right. Absolutely. Something needs to be done on this because it is just I don't have a daughter, but I have nieces. And I had a niece in Boston, Massachusetts, who had to compete against a man. And that's when she knew she was a conservative, even though her mom is a crazy liberal. But I love her mom, too. Okay, do the markets have you scared? Well, we've got something that could help. It's next.

I heart radio. All right, welcome back everyone. What did I say earlier in the program? Uncertainty sucks, man. It really does. It doesn't work well for anything. We need certainty when it comes to this Iran war. I think it's coming very soon. So the markets are in flux. All right, big deal. The markets are going to be going up. How do I know this? Because my buddies over at vertical research advisory, vra insider.com Tell me so. And they are always right. CEO Kip Herridge is with us. Kip, it's great to have you on the program.

[I]

Thanks, Grant. Great to be back.

[B]

All right. Always is probably a stretch. You'd probably be a billionaire if you're always right. But you're right way more than you're not. Tell me the percentage again on VRA Insider on money for you guys over the last few years.

[I]

I left Wall street in 1999 after 15 year career, helped take seven companies public, made his several hundred million dollars. I started the area in 2003. Since then, we've beaten the market in 19 out of 22 years. Over the last three years, our average return is 30, just under 38%.

[B]

All right. You're not worried about all this craziness in the markets right now? You've been telling me now for a while since I started talking to you, that we are in a generational bull market. You still believe it?

[I]

Absolutely. Now I think now more than ever we've got first quarter earnings are coming in. This is almost. No one's talking about this. And it's mind blowing. I've done this 40 years. I've never heard anything like this. When we started at the beginning of the year, analysts expected first quarter earnings to come in with growth of 10 to 11%. We're almost done with first quarter inch now. They're coming in at 27.5%. They're beating analysts expectations by 150%. And again, very few are talking about this. Look, we've been the most bullish strategist in America for four years. We called the bottom of the bear market October 13, 2022. And we told the people then that this is going to be a generational bull market that you had to participate in. And since then, what we've really learned is we've got our big, what we call our big three Grant. That is the Trump Economic miracle again. Tax cuts, deregulation, America first policies, the innovation revolution. We have technological changes coming now over the next 10 years we're going to have more technological advancement than we've had in our entire history of America. And we also have an absolute ocean liquidity out there that's going to keep driving the market's higher. So for all those reasons and more, we think the markets keep going higher into the2030s.

[B]

All right, so once I started talking to you, I signed up with your newsletter vra insider.com I couldn't be happier. I took a sizable portion of my portfolio, I guess everything's relative but sizable for me and dedicated it to your picks. Now your picks is not just, you know, throw it in an S and P fund. You have this 10 bagger situation that you people get free access to. By the way, if you sign up vrainsider.com free for two weeks. Explain to me the 10 baggers and how this plays into the generational bull market.

[I]

Right. Well, our 10 baggers are our highest growth potential stocks and we have right now four of those in the portfolio. We never have more than 15 stocks holdings at one time. ETFs, common stock, Bitcoin gold, that kind of thing. We're fans of all of those and it's all based in our investing system. I've developed this over my 40 years in the business. We call it the VRA investing system. And it tells us, you know, there's 12 screens, 70% fundamental, third and technical. It tells us when to be in the market, when to raise some cash. It tells us what sectors to be in. And then again it's my love of finding great growth stocks that ties into that. And we marry, married all together in portfolio. We tell you every morning what we're doing. We're not day traders, we're long term investors. And again, we've had, we've had good success over, over the years and love working with your folks, man, we've got a lot of them here.

[B]

Well, I'll tell you this, so I have dabbled in the day trading side of things for a long time and do okay. But I have done in my three months with you far better than I ever did day trading. And as you said, these are hold positions. Could be three weeks, could be three years, could be, it could be 10 years. But, but I've done better doing that than I ever did screwing around with day trading trading. And you bring a peace of mind and a, and a serenity to when everything's going around. I get this newsletter in the morning and it just relaxes me. VRainsider.com folks, two weeks free. You're still saying you think this Iran war is going to end and then we can get to back to business?

[I]

Yeah, I think. I think we see the signs here that the President has pivoted. When the President pivots, he lives the past behind and knew he's forged. He knows right now that rates are too high. That's because of the war. His oil prices are too high. That's because of the war. And it's affecting the economy. And so to get those down, we've got to move forward. He did the best he could. Tough battle, but you can't kill everybody in the country. You got to move forward and focus on the midterms. We think that's what the President's doing now. We think rates are going lower and oil prices are going lower in the near term.

I heart Radio. Welcome back, everyone. I want you to take a look. Look at this video. Wow, what a sight this is. These are two jets performing an air show and something goes wrong. By the grace of God, just being off center, all four crew members were able to eject and parachute to safety if they were not off center when they came in. And the tail of one plane pierced the belly of the other, there would have been at least one crew that wouldn't have been able to get out. So again, this is God looking out over these men. And so there's an investigation underway into how this happens. Clearly an accident, but say a prayer for those people. They're heroes of mine. All right, folks, that's going to do it for us.
