"A teenager is dead after a shooting in southeast D.C.. Happened around two 30 this afternoon on the 800 block of Yuma street in the Washington highlands neighborhood, D.C. police say 17 year old Dennis Simms was shot outside. He died on scene.

They are suing D.C. for the right to carry those guns on metro rail and metro buses. The Supreme Court said in its recent opinion that jurisdictions would still be able to ban concealed carry and sensitive places like government buildings.

"Bet you hear that alive every day of my life. You don't want to have the same name is a really famous person model, especially if it's not a real common name. Like there's a lot of good John Smiths and so one gonna give you the five o'clock our word right now. Spring green Cash contest. The word for this hour is joy J o y that they should white keyword is joy you have until 5 55 to go to new stock. 11 30 dot com. And enter the word joy. We were discussing the 16 19 project in this notion that all of America's problems stem from our slave past that slavery summer was unique to the United States, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. And I have counted that by saying that the problems that we're seeing in the African American community are offered created by liberals, and they occur a lot more recently than when slavery ended. Every time liberals take action to help Black America. Black America suffers more Let's start with this tweet from John Basham. ST Louis is murder rate, already the highest in the United States. Sword last year and response to the Democratic mayors vows to defund the police. The mayor's budget. Would close the city jail, divert $4 million in police and cut nearly 100 police jobs. So what do you think happened in ST Louis after they propose that Murder rate has soared Now, Charlie Kirk, many of you know him turning point USA, his tweet. Murder rates by city 2021 Year to date. What? These are our comparisons. We are now late May obviously The murder rate so far this year compared to 2020 and lets the number of cities Minneapolis up 40%. Chicago up 22%. Portland up 800%. Washington D C up 35%. Philadelphia up 40%. Los Angeles up 27%. What do you think all of these cities have in common, he asks. Amazing. You defined the police and more murders of recurring This brings me now to Wauwatosa on the program. Yesterday, I described a growing crime problem going on in Washington Heights. There are two neighborhoods. They're almost right next to one another. Washington Heights in Washington Highlands sometimes get this mixed up, but the height is a little bit to the east, and they straddle the white where Milwaukee and what would toss the city line. Comes together, which is not always a straight line. Apparently, Washington Heights is not the only area seeing a crime problem. Washington Highlands lot of big order mansion type houses there. Is this well? Much of Washington Highlands is in Wauwatosa. The mayor of Wauwatosa, Dennis McBride. Sent an email to a constituent. Explaining The problem that while we're toast is having with the crime problem in the Washington Highlands, I want you remembering McBride and while the Tosa to listen to the explanation This is Mary McBride were aware of the recent spate of crime in the Highlands. Captain. I want his name and the wall would toss the Police department are actively working on it. Please be vigilant and called the wpd immediately. If you are your neighbors see anything suspicious or potentially criminal in nature for a variety of raisins. We don't have all the officers we made for the situations. The police they're facing. Well, there's that not precious. The mayor of wild wheat toast that were the words the fund. The police were chatted for a year. Is those saying We don't have enough police. For a variety of reasons. You think the fact that you allow them to be insulted and called every name in the book and harassed one of them? You allowed a gunshot to be fired into a police officer's home. You think that some of that might have led some people to leave and I know this You'd have at least one more police officer had you that fired MENSA. I love this While we're toast is now experiencing crime problem, people that complaining and the mayor of what? What does this say? Well, we just don't have enough place again. It is remarkable. How liberals can just do a total 1 80 turn on a dime. And act like nothing happened. 5 24 new stock. 11 30 WS. It's time for rapid traffic from the lynch GM superstore in Burlington..

"Think about you know, you'd be hiring somebody that can't think on their own. That could never make a decision that makes any sense. It has no ability to exercise common sense. And generally has a terrible attitude toward customer service that believes the public should be shoved around. Rather than accommodated, actually think about the kinds of majors that people go into in college and so on, And a lot of people end up in fields that have nothing to do with their majors. People choose certain things that if we've learned anything about the public health community in the United States It's that they're wrong all the time. When give it a little bit of power. They behave like bones, and it's a total follow the leader operation in which nobody wants to make individual decisions. The person who won county doesn't want to do with the opposite of another Cody again. No, no, no at the CDC ahead of this and this and this, and this and again no ability at all the thinker, change up on the fly or be creative or Consider that a few other people are wrong. It would be a mansion if you were in talk radio. And everybody did the show the exact same way Rush did Hiss. We'd all sound like a bunch of copycats. Whatever the field is. Anybody who's hell bent on doing something the exact same way that somebody else is going to do. It is gonna be lousy. You're essentially saying, I don't know how to do it. Which is why I got a copy Somebody else. We've got a significant story today. That's developing, you know, Project Veritas. This is the organization that goes out and does these undercover videos. Very controversial group, but they've broken a big story and this one's making some mainstream media coverage. They have gotten a whistle blower inside of Facebook. Facebook employee on the record, saying That Facebook has been suppressing posts from individuals that raise questions about getting the vaccine. In other words of somebody post something of a critic of the vaccine, or I was referring earlier to LeBron James has wanted somebody would put up say LeBron doesn't want to get the anything that you would post that might determine. Through the metrics that Facebook uses and again. I'm not a Facebook expert. Paul would know more about that than me that they are doing their best to either censor or completely down place of people. I likelier to see this. Facebook employees and on video. Disclosing the tactics that Facebook was using to censor its own members from not being able to share the information of their choice. I've gotto Paul that I link to that. Did I link to the video on this? Yes, I've got a link to that video to the documentary Project Veritas on Belling. Cobb. And finally this I don't have any independent verification of this, but I'm hearing from listeners that there is a major crime spree going on in the Washington Highlands. There are two neighborhoods in Milwaukee. Think like a little bit north of Wisconsin Avenue and now thinking like in terms of the streets anywhere from, say, 45th 2/60. And Highlands because that's where the hell is a lot of very, very nice homes, mostly in the city of Milwaukee doesn't across into Wauwatosa that there have been significant crime problems just in the last week with break ins going on when the people are in the homes. And the residents have very, very concerned. I'm not going to say they deserve it. I'm not saying that what I am saying. Is that when you had the defund the police calls going on in Milwaukee last year, almost nobody stood up and opposed it. We know of a major crime spree going on all over the city, and we did cut the police budget. Not as much as they proposed, but they didn't cut it. We're down lots of police officers. The consequence of this is there are fewer patrols and longer response time. And the criminals in this city have gotten very bold. They're assuming nobody in that neighborhood. Got a gun. Why not break it when they're in their normally you break into a house when you know what's empty. Other break in and when they know somebody's in there, figuring What are they going to know? This is the consequence again of being dumb enough to listening to liberals. I am telling you They are wrong about everything. And it's not just an insignificant Rog running about getting people killed right about covert wrong about everything. You think just that a dumb luck. The lefties would get one thing right once. By chance. They can't even pick the right side in the Middle East between us that they were on the right side of Israel versus the terrorists. They can't even get that one right. Ask the average lefty who's worse, Israel. Communist China. I'm telling you, the lefty, say Israel. These people are out of their minds. Yet they run the country. They run many of our communities that many of us are dumb enough. Repaired it while you can, did I that they don't treat the Palestinians off. Oh, the Chinese treat the Muslim population, the Muslim leaders in China. They treat them just great. They have them in slavery. Can you imagine if Israel invented the covert virus lied about it coming out of all you never hear the end of a China, too, though you can't criticize them, that's racist. Racist to criticize the Chinese, but it's it's not bigoted to criticize the Jewish community of Israel. I've said enough. So now you're changing your prediction of the heat and seven You know you can't No. Yes, Yes, you can't. I mean, I'm not saying you could weasel out of your earlier thing, but to stick by, it would be idiotic to still think video with that would be like saying No, no, no, no..
