Now, it's Red Eye Radio, Gary McNamara, and Eric Hurley talk about everything...

politics to social issues, and news of the day, whether you're up late or you're just

starting your day, welcome to the show, from the Relief Factor Studios.

This is Red Eye Radio. Well, all across America, we are Red Eye Radio. He is here. I'm Gary McNamara. Good morning.

Hi. Thank you for being here. How's everybody doing? Well, it was a good day for everyone. You know, it made me chuckle yesterday.

I don't have the, as I've told you here, I don't have the exact timeline.

But when I saw the inflation report that came out, and if you look at the inflation report,

you can see how much energy prices affect everything. Yeah.

You can see how much of an impact that it actually has on the inflation rates, right?

And as we know, oil prices over the, you know, last month and a half have come down drastically. Yeah. And I don't know the, as I told you, I didn't know the exact timeline on it. But by the time it got to be to the afternoon, I had a bunch of things I had to do early in the morning, and when I started paying attention to what was going on, I saw the inflation

report and how much, you know, oil prices and energy prices have on inflation overall. Right. And then the next story I saw was Trump has rescinded the 20% of the search. Yeah. Yeah.

I know oil tankers going through the straight up or moves. Yeah. I'm like, you know, it was horrible too, because they had already set up the toll booths. I saw the, I'm saying they're going, okay, you know, there it goes in.

And it really is, I mean, it's not amazing.

I mean, it's just when you see it, when you see when oil prices drastically come down, how that affects so much. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

You know, there's still things, you know, that it, we're not out of the woods now, especially since oil prices went back up. I was done. I think I paid 270 last week, I'm by the gas station on the way to work. Here are the one closest to me and it was 364.

So that's, you know, and, and so you, you see that happening. And so will this blip that we saw because of energy prices will it affect how people feel towards inflation? No, I don't believe it will at all. No, again, when we talk about these reports, we've said this for years when the report

comes by the time the report comes out. The people, the everyday person has already paid for things that this report reflects. They know what their pocketbook looks like.

That's what the pocketbook, or those under 80, a pocketbook was something.

They know what their bank accounts look like. They know what they're having to pay. What was it yesterday that I went in and bought? Oh, these Swiss cheese, I went and got some Swiss cheese for sandwiches. And man, I mean, the prices are like through the roof, I'm not sure what the world's

going on, but massive, you know, increase in the price since I last bought it. And I was like, holy cow, 11 slices of cheese were like six bucks. So you kidden me, you know, and I'm thinking to myself, if they don't, if there's no way before November to get on top of prices, the only way they can do it is I started exactly where you were on the inflation report.

Because when I saw the headline itself, that, you know, by the way, inflation drops, you know, the inflation rate dropped, but the headlines were inflation drops, has the biggest drop in, you know, whatever was in years, and it's like, okay, that's all energy. That's all gas prices. We know what that is.

I didn't even have to look at the report. In fact, didn't right away. I knew what it was. Then I go to the grocery store a couple of hours later and I'm like, man, this is not, again, the inflation report isn't something go, people go, wait, they don't wait for the inflation

report to see what they paid last month. There already know it. Well, when you, when you see it, you had some, you know, you had negative numbers in there. Yeah. For the month.

But if you look at year over year, it's still when you look at things and people actually buy even energy, it's way up from where it was last year.

You know, overall, you know, overall energy from a year ago to where we are r...

But again, that's year to year. But as, you had analysts saying, well, just as we get the relief here because of oil prices, boom, you know, it's back on again, and, you know, oil prices are, you know, going back up. Now, I will say this because I said this yesterday was interesting that the president

seemed to be not talking about any deal yesterday or two days ago when, well, really over the weekend when everything really started again. And we were back with a military action against, you know, against Iran. But he mentioned a deal today, said, we, they don't come to a deal. We're going to do this.

And it's like, wow. And people may ask, you know, like, for the whole 20% thing, which he backed off on, and Trump, just written here from political Trump on Tuesday, walk back to Reds to charge. The 20% fee on all cargo ships had passed through the straight up or moves. Yeah, in a post of truth, social, he said, the straight will be open to all ship traffic

except for Iran and US will implement a full blockade, but only on ships coming to and from Iranian ports, we're carrying anything having to do with Iranian cargo. He added the previously announced 20% fee will be replaced by trade and investment deals

between the Gulf States and the United States, which, again, is always the fall back with

this administration. We're going to have trade. He said the other day, we have 19.6 trillion in investment coming in from foreign countries. No, we don't.

No, I think that's, that's what they have promised to do in the future, but that is currently

not happening. What was that? And there is no, there is no treaty, there is nothing that can mandate something like that. What was the deal, who was it that announced there, $3.5 billion investment for get? If it was an electronics company and the reason I forget is because the number was so low,

$3.5 billion. Look, they're, they're moving $3.5 billion worth of investment to the US, a positive. But $3.5 billion is a drop of the bucket. If you look at, at, at the way investments go and for companies, if you're talking about, we're moving all of our production to the US, then you've got my attention.

But that happened, and I'll, I'll look it up, I'll see what it was. And the president, in fact, later that day, they were doing something at the White House, and you know, you talked about it and you made it, made a big deal out of it.

And, and the problem is, is that's not over promising, that's over celebrating,

just saying, "Hey, look, to, you know, $3.5 billion isn't zero. It's not, it's not, it's not game-changing for that industry, but certainly it's a move in the right direction."

And you leave it at that, and, and, and this is, I think this is the problem on the messaging

from from the administration, you know, I, I, I said to myself, especially this evening, there seems to be more excitement if you think about it. There's more movement on the getting rid of changing the clocks thing. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

There's more excitement on that than far more than, of course, the national debt, but there's more excitement and movement on that than, say, the, the, the, the, the voter ID.

You look at the things that are critical, and, you know, whatever they do with the clocks,

whatever, you know, because I heard, let's keep daylight saving time. And then there's, of course, those that are saying, "No," in Congress, "No, we need to keep the standard time," you know, this is going to be, this is, this is, what they say, that's, your, your circadian rhythm is, is built on that, and that's the way it's going to, you know, that's the way it should be, and it's going to help farmers, and it's going

to be better for school children and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, you know, they're arguing and they're actually trying to argue that we can legislate more daylight hours. And you can't, it doesn't work that way. You can say, you can regulate when we're not, when we're, you know, when the sun is going to come up and when it's not going to come up, you know, because they're saying, you know,

a lot of the sun parts of the country, sunrise won't be before like 9 a.m. in some parts of the year.

Well, I think it was Mitch Hedberg that said, "No, I wasn't Mitch Hedberg, it was another

comedian, five hours.

We moved the clock ahead, five hours, and he talked about people who work ove...

I think it may have been John Malay, anyway, it was the stand-up comedian, and he said, "Let's just move it forward, five hours," you know, and that way the sun comes up at noon. You know, there are so many things that you can control and, and so many others, and

there's arguments on both sides, those arguments will never go away.

I have my doubts as to how this is, the bill did pass in the house, by the way. And I don't know. I haven't seen any, I haven't seen any count for the Senate, there's saying this is going to be much slower in the Senate. Well, I did see that it, it faces hurdles in the Senate, but they didn't attach a head

count to that. And, and so we'll see, because there's a number of Democrats on board with it, I don't know how many of them in the Senate are on board with it. So remember, try it in 74, and didn't last repealed it the same year. Yeah.

No, that's what I kind of what I was alluding to yesterday.

You're going to have everybody, you know, on Capitol Hill screaming in the faces of lawmakers that, of course, that it's going to affect, you know, you're going to have, of course, I don't know, the teacher's union, I don't know if they, they would get involved. You're going to have, you know, the farmers, there's a concern there how much work can

be done, you know, in a day, if the sun rises until my name, of course, the farmers get

up long before sunrise. Anyway, you know what? I love the title of the bill. Yeah. The sunshine.

The sunshine action act. Yeah. Yes. Sunshine protection. No.

That's exactly where I was going to think. We can change the amounts of sunlight we get. Well, no, no, you can change the time that it rises or the time the sun sets. Well, but what I loved yesterday was a number of people saying, we need to do, we need to do this because we need to do what Mother Nature dictated, it's like, well, right.

Yeah. All the time stuff and everything else we do is humans made it up. Yeah. You were excited. You were excited.

He was excited. This is what we're going to call a day. We're going to call a day this because of this, this, this, this and this. It's like, right. Nothing to do with nature.

Well, I mean, it's, you know, how the earth would revolve around the sun and everything else. And even that, we have a leap minute.

How many years every every exact, I mean, so many years?

Well, we have to find a year by going around the sun once. Right. I mean, that, yeah. But we have to have a leap day to correct our math. We have to have a leap minute.

There's actually a leap minute. You don't notice it. But there's a leap minute. Plus and change, whether we have daylight savings or standard time. No.

Got nothing to do with it. But I love that. Yesterday was like, we're just, I guess when we're, we're still dealing with with the left that a man can be a woman if a man says so. Yeah.

Then you can just throw out whatever crap you wish to throw out. Just just throw it out there and, and that's the frustrating part of it. You know, the debates they're going to have aren't going to change. So the lobbyists, if this signs and goes into effect, I said, this yesterday, if this

were to sign, they were to sign this, the president were to sign it, if they, it passed

in the Senate. If it went to his desk and he signed it, it went to into effect immediately, lobbyists would be on Capitol Hill. And the moment you start having that, because, you know, then all of a sudden there's a new news story.

And look what Trump did. He canceled daylight. He's trying to cancel daylight. Let's see what the farmers in the Midwest, anybody got in the overalls, we need to wear overalls.

We're going to Omaha. Hey, we're, we're, we're trying to, he's canceling the sun. What do you think about that farmers? I mean, it's a real concern by farmers. My point is how it will be covered by the liberal activist media.

You know, I mean, we're just going to build some tracks from us with more hits. Trump has destroyed time. Yeah, exactly. He's trying. He's such a dictate.

He thinks he can control how the earth rolls around the sun. But I did have getting back to the, we'll get back to the time thing, because I've got a great audio coming up on, on that one showing the, the, the problem with it. But I did have a listener asked me, you know, what was, you know, because the Trump, you know, saying the 20% toll on all cargo ships, most people just said, he's not going to

stay, you know, hold that. Yeah. It didn't even, it didn't even last a day. And I had a listener say, why does he do that? And then back off immediately.

I think that the first instinct Trump has on everything is economic.

Yeah.

I think it's that simple. Yeah.

And that's the first instinct he has and he believes, you know, for example, when he was

talking about, you know, the, the memorandum of understanding and that, you know, what we're going to do and the investment into a ran and, you know, how the economy will boom and the, and we're just like, stop it. He believes that the first instinct of people is what it is for him, which is economic. Yeah.

I'm not saying it's a bad thing.

I think it's a good thing in a capitalist society to have that.

But those have believed in chariose supremacy could give a damn about whether their country booms and helps the, the, the, the, the common person. Well, they could, they could, they could, they could, they could care less. But it's his first instinct. His first instinct was whenever I do something, I've got to have an economic side to it.

Sure. And that's his first instinct. So he blurt's it out. And then 24 hours later. No, we're not going to do that.

We're going to have massive investment deals. And it's like, okay. Yeah. That's, that's a way to, that, you know, that's his way out of it. But his first instinct is everything has to have an economic element to it.

And the belief that wherever you are around the world, you think just like he does, what I have found out. And, and is that people don't think alike. Democrats don't think like Republicans right now. They may have been closer 20 years ago, but where you've got them right now.

They don't think the same way. It's not that they even different issues. They don't process thoughts the same way. Right. And I think there needs to be recognition of that.

That's one of the things that we've always talked about when the Democrats would call

sits there. Everything we would talk about. They go, it's a, your racist, your racist go. What are you talking about? There's no racism.

It's because they practice identity politics. We don't. They practice identity politics. They judge people by groups and not individuals.

So they project out that you must think the same way.

Yeah. Yep. And people don't think the same way. No, no, they don't. We are right.

I radio brought to you by hot shot secret. Hi, I'm Jen Lumis, a transport safety expert at JJ Keller at a roadside inspection inspectors may ask to see supporting documents. These documents can include bills of waiting, itineraries, schedules, or equivalent documents that indicate the origin and destination of each trip.

They can also include dispatch or trip records, expense receipts related to on duty/notdriving periods, electronic mobile communication transmitted through a fleet management system, and payroll records, settlement sheets, or equivalent documents that indicate payment to a driver. The driver's using paper logs must also keep toll receipts. Supporting documents must contain the driver's name, carrier assigned identification number,

or vehicle unit number that can be linked to the driver, the date, the name of the nearest city town of village, and the time. This tip was brought to you by JJ Keller and Associates. Visit us at JJ Keller.com. Wearing open for your calls, 866-90-Red Eye, on Red Eye Radio.

Here, when I went to New York, he's heard from Gary McNamerk coming up more on a daylight saving. I didn't think of during the day yesterday. If we were to go to war with a ran and, you know, like in World War II, it kind of pushed women into the workforce, right?

So it kind of helped to expand the economy.

I think we can do the same thing in the event that we do need to have a large escalation,

a large-scale war against a ran. I think it's time to put children in the workforce, starting at the age of six. Because here me out, hear me out. They're being indoctrinated in schools. But they're learning real life skills on the assembly line, or wherever we make things

anymore. I don't know, I don't know, it's been a while. Then they're learning something that's going to be useful when they grow up to be adults. Plus, the Democratic Socialists are being blunt as to what they want. Jim Rome takes on sports.

I will always have a complicated relationship with this game.

But people evolve, totus sports. Do not make me regret this. Do not make me devolve back to that guy that's so many clones wish that I still was. And do not embarrass the entire country.

Now, I can go back.

I can get there fast, lose tonight, and you got a real problem.

Do not blow it.

The Jim Rome show podcasts.

You're going to warn. If I would listen on your favorite platform. Scrolling with Haley. I am Haley Carania. I scroll with the homies here in the live chat, because there's a lot to scroll through on

X on Instagram, on TikTok, cutting through the clutter, one hot take at a time. Love seeing you all in the chat before the show. I tried to jump in just a few minutes before to say hello. I love the chat interaction. Thank you for helping.

But I do it to get all of the videos and all of the content that you won't find anywhere else. Scrolling with Haley.

Just search that up, and I will be there.

Follow and listen on your favorite platform. Do a listening to Red Eyed Radio from the Relief Factor Studio. And he is there, Carania. I'm Gary McNamara. Just to show you, this is hilarious.

It's Neil deGrasse Tyson on News Nation, about daylight saving. Watch how he says one thing, and sort of contradicts himself a couple of minutes later. Here we go. I just got it, got it, and this is why there isn't an answer to it, because it's what people personally prefer from the situation that they're in, and it's different for everybody.

Right, everybody has different needs. So here, here, here this is, here we go. It's just kind of odd that we take an hour from the morning of sunlight and put it at the end of the day, and somehow everybody's okay with that, and we love it. Well, before there was electric light, maybe that kind of matter to a lot.

But who today is saying, oh, it's getting dark earlier. I don't know if I can't go out, I don't know what I'm going to do. I get it light a candle, get the whale oil. This time is long past in the winter where there's not much daylight to begin with. In New York City, for example, where I live, the sun won't rise until 8.20 in the morning.

But if you're going to school on a bus, you have to walk to the bus, or walk to school,

and you're trying to get to school early, that will be happening in the dark. If you keep daylight saving time all year round, so these are, there's safety issues related to that.

So the first thing you come saw with is the fact that we don't need to worry about this.

We have electricity. There's lights. There's no problem. And then the next statement is, but there's a lot of safety things in the morning, because I live in New York City where you would assume one of the biggest cities, well, the biggest

city in the United States where there's lights everywhere, he's saying it's still dark. And that's the point lights aren't everywhere. Right. And well, but he contradicts himself in just that over, over daylight saving. It's like, wow, we got to like President, there's no problem.

The people say, you know, there's no, we got lights. We have lights. Well, except for the kids going to school in New York City.

Well, that's a major city where you have more lights, right?

Yeah. And one of the problems that the liberals from defeat that are like, we can't turn on more lights. We need to turn them off. Well, we can be using the electricity.

Well, in the blue states, they're running that out at the well, we cut off the, you know, they're cutting off natural gas sources, you know, and so the way that they produce electricity in some states now has changed drastically and has become brace for it. More expensive. So this is the, this is going to be the ongoing debate.

This is why it's not going to be solved. Kids going to school in the dark is a problem, which is why I think, and kids are with me on this. We should only have school from noon to one. Well, again, for me, really doesn't matter.

The numbers are great. I actually don't mind winters where it gets dark when I was living in New York. I mean, it would get dark at, you know, it's, it would be almost dark at 430/425.

I, I never minded that in during the winter time, right?

Because it wasn't like when you're living in, in, in, in winter, where it's snowing everything else. You're saying to yourself, I want to get out, you know, and, and, and do stuff. So to me, it doesn't make a difference. I understand other people why it does. But this is so personal as to what your current situation is right at the moment.

Yeah. I mean, it is, and, and that's, it's not a small thing for, like, you know, kids going to school in the dark farmers, you know, having to wait to do certain tasks on their

Farms until the sun comes up, that, you know, this is a problem.

Um, this is going to be the back and forth with policy makers and, and, and everybody that represents these groups, starting day one of the president's scientists into law. If, if he does sign it into law, it's only a matter of time before they change it back.

And, and it will be, it will be the different, you know, the, the, the same, basically,

the same basis argument, but it will be the opposite approach. Change it back, everybody's been screaming, and it, and it, and it, because think about what's driving it, you know, there is a concern with the health effects, because people

are lagging, man, when we change the clocks, I think, especially in the fall for me, you

know, it changes, um, but it really, for the most part for, if it doesn't affect you when it comes to kids going to school or if you don't own a farm or whatever, but doesn't affect you in that way, it really is about just the nuisance of changing the clocks. You know, I, I don't know. Well, it's interesting because, uh, the, the, the, uh, reading here, this is from, uh, NBC,

you know, this is from, uh, yeah, this is from NBC. Uh, the U.S. remains largely split on the issue, while 64% of Americans agree that clock changes should be abolished. They cannot universally agree on the solution. Not as many prefer permanent standard time instead, states have increasingly taken matters

into their own hand, almost all states have considered legislation to stop the changes. And 19 of past laws authorizing permanent daylight saving time if Congress allows it, meanwhile Arizona and Hawaii continue to bypass the national clock change entirely by observing permanent standard time, okay, the Sunshine Protection Act. We're going to control how much sun it's like, so if this is coming out of Congress, does

it mean the opposite, are they not protecting Sunshine?

I mean, the inflation reduction acted the opposite, right?

Well, you know, again, the problem is is from the Capitol Hill perspective, or the White

House, or both, they're acting like they could actually change how much sunlight we get. Right. I don't know. It's only when we get it, you know, if we're going to change the clocks, I say, when we, someone else had this idea, another comedian, I say, if we change the clocks when

we spring forward, we do that on our Friday at 4 p.m., that way, boom, we get off and we get off an hour early. The problem though with, you know, again, all of this is that the lobbyists will be in full force on this. It isn't a small thing because the media will be all over.

You know, we're here in the dark as if they don't have, you know, lights when they're out. Oh, no, could you? No, can you imagine all the local TV stations? No, there'll be everywhere. Here are the mothers.

Yeah. Here are the mothers furious that their kids look how dark it is.

Well, at 8 o'clock, and I remember that when I went to school, when I went to school,

when I went to high school, especially, we had classes that started at 7.

We were always walking to school in the dark.

Well, we had when I took driver education, and those, that's a loose term for what I learned. But when I took driver education to get my license, I took it through the school. And so I had to go to, I actually had to go there at, I think had to be there at 630, 45, you know, there were things when I was in the work program, not in prison. That was a different one.

When I was in the work program at school, my job required me to actually show up at 4 a.m. on Tuesdays and Fridays, and unload trucks, and then go to school, and then go back to my job when I got out at noon or whatever. When I was in elementary school, and we walked to school, and it was probably a half mile.

So in kindergarten, we were walking to school.

And I went to, I went to Catholic school for the first six years, and my brother caused so much trouble that, then my parents said, okay, he's going to public school, you're leaving too. Yeah, you don't want to follow your brother.

I always talk about that, that, that, when I was in high school, I got called to, you know,

to the attendance office, and the guy said to me, he said, well, you weren't in study hall last week, and I said, yeah, I was, I, I have never skipped study hall, I've always in there. And he said, are you John's brother, and I said, yes, I'm a younger brother. And he said, guilty is charged.

Yeah, I mean, that's the, oh, no, I had, I had three older brothers when I got to Del Rio high school. It was all over for me, you know, they decided, since I was the only one of my three, you know, I had three brothers, but the only one of the four Harley boys in band, I must have been a nerd.

So I probably wasn't going to be in trouble a lot. So when I was in Catholic school, church, we went to church every morning, five days a week, you know, you went, you went to church at seven o'clock. Yeah. Yeah.

And so we were walking to school at 630, it was dark during the wintertime.

And we were kindergarten first grade and nobody made it stink about it, it's what, it's

what you did. And then class started at eight o'clock. Yeah. And if you were going to get actually, this was interesting with, you, you go to church at seven o'clock and probably be over by, you know, 740, it wasn't as long as maybe

some of the masses on Sunday and the kids were all there. And then you would go, you'd bring your breakfast, there was no, there was no government breakfast being served, you brought your breakfast and you brought your lunch in a bag. And if you're going to receive communion, you're going to receive communion, you know, you would, you would, you would bring your, you know, lunch.

And I can remember sitting in class as classes were starting and the one woman next

me, whenever I happened to her, all I remember is she, to me, we were, we were in like,

I don't know, third, fourth grade.

And she was an adult, you see, her penmanship was perfect. And it was like, I remember thinking as a kid, she's like an adult and third or fourth grade. And I remember her breaking out her hard-boiled eggs and she had her Parker pen. Constance Scott, even the name. Oh my gosh, she's probably a CEO.

She probably is. Yeah. It's like she's good, but, but, but, yeah, so, you know, we went to school when it was dark all the time. Well, you know, I mean, yeah, we look, when we had, when we, in marching band, there were

a lot of things, during the summer, actually, they wanted us to get their super early because in Del Rio, of course, it's hot. And we started summer sessions like a week or two after school ended and we went every day throughout the summer.

I think maybe we were off certain Fridays, but we would march on the field to practice

our marching presentation on the field in the morning. You had to. And then in the afternoon, we had to go back. So we would do two of the days, you know, all summer long, but it started by getting up early. And it was often dark by the time you got there.

Now, when we took the field, the sunhead had already come up. Just to help people understand Eric and to give him some street cred. He started out in band, but he ended up as a heavy metal based guitarist. Yeah, I was actually in a heavy metal band then too. Yeah.

Okay. Just wanted to make that clear. Yeah. Yeah. I was a guitarist, drummer, and bass player, depending on which band you're talking.

Yeah. He was in band, but he was full of testosterone. Heavy metal testosterone. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Now it's how I got my testosterone.

Okay. We are right, I radio. We'll be right back with more Red Eye Radio with Eric Hurley and Gary McNamara.

All right, what may block this saving daylight bill?

Yeah. This from Politico, NBC, and the Los Angeles Times, the Center of Tom Cotton and Senate Major Leader John Thun have vocalized strong opposition to a doping it.

Yeah.

Then there's the safe standard time movement, advocacy groups like safe standard time pushed

water makers to abandon daylight saving altogether, arguing that locking the clock on standard time is the only biologically sound choice for public safety, and because the proposed bill allows states to opt out and choose permanent standard time instead, critics worry it will create a confusing patchwork of time zones across neighboring state borders, which

that's why the airlines are complaining.

Yeah. Right. They're on a screen. You're going to screw up the scheduling and everything else for people. This is going to be a mess.

Oh, man. It's, I can't imagine.

Every state can be whatever time they want.

The time zones really won't matter anymore. Right. In Texas, we're going to move to a seven minute difference, an hour and seven minute. Because we're Texas. And everything's bigger.

Yeah. Just moving the important time.

It's going to give us more time in the day.

It's no, it's, if you're going to do something, it needs to be one standard, you know, you keep the time zones in place. But you know, like I said yesterday, there was talk about doing away with the eastern time zone.

I'm like, yeah, you're going to have to stop.

You know, you've got to quit trying to manipulate everything. Right now, again, this is really a populist thing that's, you know, we don't want to change to clocks ever. We don't want to change to clocks ever. But there are real concerns on both sides that will keep this on Capitol Hill for all

of the time. You just brought you by house product, visit house products.com. This is Red Eye Radio on Westwood One. Now it's Red Eye Radio, Gary McNamara, and Eric Hurley talk about everything from politics to social issues and news of the day, whether you're up late or you're just starting

your day.

Welcome to the show from the Relief Factor Studios.

He is Red Eye Radio. All across America, he is here currently and I'm Gary McNamara. All right, I'm thinking the other day, we need to introduce like, and so I'm going to label this hour, maybe not the entire hour, but just label this hour, the Red Eye Radio crazy hour.

More than that be every hour, more than that is true, why limit it to when I'm doing something happen that I don't know about it. But this happened yesterday, you had Dr. Sam Hargood, who is part of the medical department at the University of California at San Francisco, and Dr. Dumanette from UCLA. Medical School.

All right. All right. Now these, I'm just going to play it. We don't have to, you know, give too much of a preamble to it, but it's on the Radical Transgender Movement in Medicine.

Okay. Yeah. Listen to this now. This is just, hey, just won't answer the question. Now this is scary because if you try to get away with this in medicine, whoa, what won't

you try? Here we go. And this is representative Mary Miller asking the questions. Here we go. Also troubling Dr. Benedictie, it appears that DEI has not left UICM.

On your schools about page clear as day, it says, and I quote, at the University of Illinois College of Medicine, we are committed to diversity and inclusion. We have a number of programs and initiatives in place to promote diversity and inclusion. It's clear that UICM is just hiding the fact that DEI is still its core mission. Dr. Heygood, you see UCSF's classroom guide titled Framework for Gender and Sex Concepts

in Teaching, advises against using the term "pregnant women" instead. It says to use pregnant people, who are pregnant people compared to pregnant women, just curious. So that is a part of a curriculum to help our students who are facing a wide diversity of patients.

Of course, the vast majority of pregnancies are in women and I have absolutely no problem with using the word "pregnant women" I use at my school. Is it a non-biological woman ever had a baby? A transgender person? That's not a biological woman.

It has a non-biological woman ever had a baby. By the way, at that point you are fired at that point, you are fired.

Get out.

Get out. Here we get the board.

We take care of transgender patients.

Dr. Hoggood, the UCSF guide I mentioned earlier, also advises using a child's self-reported gender identity even if it conflicts with the parents' wishes. Say a seven-year-old boy comes into your doctor's office and reveals he believes he's a girl. Does UCSF advising physicians to explicitly violate parents' moral values and have the doctors

address this boy as a girl? A program is consistent with federal and state law. We undertake comprehensive psychological mental health evaluations and work with the parents on these issues. Okay.

And I hope that you are consistent with the law because like I say, we reserve the right. We have the right to withhold funding from any institution and violation. Lastly, Dr. Dubene, a required course at UCLA Medical School, advises OBGYN students, not to, and I quote, "As soon gender identity." Okay.

From another class in May of 2026, it included a disclaimer that while it uses the term "she and women," it does not intend to exclude, and I quote, "Those who have a uterus, but do not identify with these terms. What does that even mean?" I'm not familiar with that announcement that I'd have to read the entire thing.

Okay. I hope that you go back and check it out. Can someone have a uterus, but not be a woman, because it seems like your school is promoting that ridiculous idea?

I think again, as Dr. Hoggett has described, we're treating transgender people.

We're doing that in compliance with state and federal law. And you do teach biology? Yes, we do. Yes. This is curious.

So I'm going to ask you again, can someone have a uterus and not be a woman? Just say yes or no. Can they? Again, I would have - that's where your medical school is promoting. You're fired.

Yeah. You're fired. You're fired. There's to be - if you wish to be a delusional, liberal, congressperson or senator or president and promote that, fine, in the medical profession, you're talking biology.

Well, and this was something that the Trump administration directly addressed with the CDC

after years of the Obama administration, this is during Trump's first term.

In the years of the Obama administration in the CDC, they were changing terminology.

And it's important that you not do that.

So what they do is they tiptoe around it. What gender were you assigned at birth? Well, what do you mean assigned by who? What did they say you were? What did somebody just -

no, no, no, no, no authority to do so. That's the implication. What gender did they assign you at birth? What's your biological gender? That's the question.

Can't answer it. You cannot fire that - and this is a problem. You know the American Medical Association.

Remember that case that ended, that it was, I don't know, two, three months ago, maybe

longer, and you had said for years, look, the lawsuits are going to change things, especially when it comes to children. But I think even beyond that, and I think we both talked about this, even with adults who have had surgeries and said, look, when I decided this, I didn't have the proper counseling or something like this, you're going to see a lot of lawsuits and the American Medical

Association released a statement basically saying, look, we're not going to be able

to do this. This is going to be a problem when it comes to surgeries, when you're teaching, and this is the thing, is that you're going to indoctrinate through these teachings and then set out into the world a new group of doctors, nurse practitioners, physicians, assistants, and everybody else that will be in people's - be in charge of people's care.

That will be using language that doesn't make sense to the average person that comes straight

From the agenda that comes straight from the indoctrination itself.

And when you do that, it becomes dangerous.

The biological male, living as a woman, transgender female, biological male, these all of these things have to be very clear in the medical field, because you can't change them. And again, this is why I have the problem with what were you assigned, what gender were you assigned at birth?

A signed doesn't belong there, someone just don't you have to ask the question, who's

doing the assigned? Who's doing the assigned? My creator assigned it. Oh, bring that up in a liberal university. Good luck with that.

And those are the things that come down to it, that it comes down to. There are no anomalies, or there are maybe a few anomalies out there when it comes to science. There are very few anomalies, but when you're talking about teaching science, now with chromosomes. But when you're talking about teaching science, medical in general, and you make, in fact,

you make a case for any anomaly along the way, right? Those would be special cases, which may require special treatment or not. This is what they're going out of their way to make it look like biologically, these are anomalies, and they are not. They are agenda.

They are indeed a social construct.

They are coming up with their version, whatever their version is, you know, a pregnant person

came in with that, you just hit it right there where they contradict themselves, because we were told for the longest time that gender is a social construct, which means it's not biological. Right. Exactly.

This is a social, socially we have decided to do this. Right. Well, have you scientifically? No. Well, are you a scientist or a sociologist?

That's it. Because you're a scientist. They're applying a social construct, right? And it does not apply in science. It just reminds me of the, you know, the earth first video that we've played, and the

grow goes, you know, give me that life, that that rock over there has lived and what does that? Wonderful life. That rock is lit. What a wonderful life, that rock is lit.

And then I think to myself, you know, sometimes I kind of have a boring life. And the rock may have had more, at least the rock gets outside once a while.

But no, I'm going to defend my life and say my life is more interesting than a rock.

Yeah.

I'll always have that strong stand.

Your yours is, I wouldn't bet on mine on certain days. I watched the rock doesn't talk to a cat like I do. I've watched every video on YouTube three times. I've finished YouTube. No, but I mean, it's like saying, you know, oh, that rock could identify as a tree.

It just for a dig. But that's a beautiful thing. I thought they contradict themselves. But you and I do not live in the bubble of today because you and I both remember when the argument was gender is not sex, right?

And all of a sudden one day, and I'm serious, it happened in like a month, all of a sudden gender was sex. Yeah. It's like, wait a minute, you've just reversed yourself 180 degrees. It didn't matter.

Yeah. It didn't matter. And I go by that thing that I read the other day from the one guy who wrote about

the radical transgender movement that basically it's the ultimate power play.

You actually attempt to brainwash people that what is scientifically impossible is possible without any evidence to back it up. And you shame and demonize the people that won't agree with your absurdity, right?

Then you wish to change society by something that is so incredibly ridiculous...

self-evident. Right. Yeah.

And it's just, wow, no, I mean, and that's it.

And they say it as if it's true. And then the next phase is shaming you if you don't use the language. You heard it in a way in some of these responses here, and the audio you just played. The idea is, and they're not going to answer the question. But if they were on their territory, if they were in their setting on their turf, they

would condemn you for even questioning this policy I have it here. Transgenderism, the radical transgender movement is an uncontrolled society-scaled experiment in which conformity and obedience, a test of how far you can make people parrot absurdities, and afflict cruelties collude with unrealities and ostracize and punish people for things that they do not themselves believe.

It is a test whether the moral self-abacements and routine betrayals that occurred in the

Soviet block with its secret police and political prisons and armies of informants could

be replicated in a liberal democratic and pluralistic society that lacked this formal apparatus

of repression, whether minor rewards and punishments could force people to punish people for stating the most self-adventant of all truths, and inspire them to cheer on the chemical castration and dismemberment of their own children. It is a test of whether civil liberties, organizations, could be twisted into instruments of state repression and human rights groups, instruments of defamation and violence against women.

It is a test that most of the Western world is failing. I thought that was just a wonderful way to wrap it up in a couple of paragraphs. And that Wesley Yang and he's a writer on Substack, don't know what anything else about him. I'm telling you, that's almost perfect.

I mean, again, the more we allow this nonsense, because you're shredding the truth, is what you're doing.

If we can change that, if anything can be a social construct, everything can be a social

construct.

As we've said before, though, and this is where the right has to attack it.

This is not about caring about transgender. They could give them damn, no, there's a mental health crisis, but they, they, themselves, they promote, there's a, there's a, there's a, there's a, there's a, there's a, there's a, there are many, as we have said, there's a huge mental health crisis. Yes.

So the Berkeley professor, right, going up against the, Josh Holley, Josh Holley, that, that point, that you can't even talk about this. Why? Because they'll commit suicide if you do. Right.

If you even talk about transgenderism, there's a mental health issue here. You can't say that. Right. You know, it's like, they're trying to shut down the conversation, they're trying to shut down the comment.

And they, the whole, the, the biggest lie is that they give a damn about people that have

these thoughts that they're the opposite sex, right?

They don't give a damn about them. They don't. They could care less about them. Yep. We are right.

I radio. This morning's USDA Farm Report is brought to you by House products tested, trusted, guaranteed since 1920, a trail of record setting heat continues this week. USDA biologist Brad Ripy says this wave originated last week. We started to see heat emerging from the Western United States, and it really took hold

across the Northern Great Plains over the weekend, peaking on Sunday. And now as we move through this week, some of that heat is propagating eastward across the Northern Corn Belt, the Great Lakes region, and then eventually reaching the Northeast here in middle Atlantic states. The peak of this heat wave Sunday on near all-time record high temperature for the state

of Montana. Luckily, some of that heat has lost a little bit of punch, but that doesn't change the fact that you're approaching the midweek. You're looking at temperatures in the 95 to 100 degree range. Ripy says the heat should not impact Midwestern corn and soybeans this week.

He adds ironically near to below normal temperatures are forecasted along a stretch of the nation's southern tier. I'm Rod Bane reporting for the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Washington, D.C.

This report brought to you by Senox Fules and Loops.

"Get in touch with Red Eyed Radio, toll-free at 866, mighty Red Eyed."

"Dear Red Eyed Radio, he's here for me and I'm Gary McNamara, welcome and good morning."

But you and I were just talking about during the break that, and one of the things

I had said in you, you've always agreed with it, is that the right has to go after

the left on this whole thing that they care about transgenders. They don't give a damn, they don't give a damn about women. We've seen that with the misogyny and sexism of the radical transgender movement, but they also don't care about transgenders, because they themselves, if you listen to what they say, say there's an incredible mental health problem with transgenders, and the solution

of it is to let children cut off their body parts. "Yes, and not talk about the health of the mental health crisis." "Right." "Yes." "Wow, that's unacceptable."

"That's Red Eyed Radio Live every night on the Red Eyed Radio app, available in the

app store, Red Eyed Radio." And I'm Gary McNamara, along with Eric Carley, well, the Democrat Socialists of America are being very clear about what they want, we'll get to that in just a minute. And it comes to supplements, two things matter the most, that it works, and that you can trust.

But rather than just tell you about relief factor, let's share a story from another great customer. Doug took relief factor for nearly a year before, convincing a wife, a special needs teacher to try it. Now, she had been using assistance to move through the long hallway at school.

Now, she's back on her feet every day, and never had to leave the job.

She loves. That's a wonderful story. Doug, thank you for sharing and our best to you and your wife, and I'm telling you right now, they gave me some to try, and the difference is day and night. I used to have to work around my pain, sometimes it couldn't work at all because of my

pain and thanks to relief factor, it's no longer an issue. And we want to tell your story about relief factor and get you started. The three week quick start is just 1776, and all you do is go to relieffactor.com or call 800, the number four relief, 800, four relief, and connect with a friendly local team, that's going to get you back to the life you love.

Maybe we'll be sharing your story soon, relieffactor.com. You know, Eric, I don't know what happened last week, the Democrat Socialists of America must have put it into print because when we were on vacation last week, all of a sudden there's a new story all over the place.

Here's what the Democrat Socialists of America want, and I'm thinking to myself as

I'm on vacation last week, we talked about this two weeks ago, and I think this was because

of the convention that they held, they had the convention, and so it came out what they wanted and that was reported, and then it must have come out in print because I was like, they should have put in, we do this story, when other publicizing it, this is the Democrat Socialist of America co-chair, Ashik Sadik, on getting rid of the Senate. You ready?

Here we go. Don't see the point of the Senate, historically it was meant to serve very wealthy people who owned a lot of land, and that's still a system that we have today, and it's something we would change, we would expand what the House of Representatives does, and make it more actually representative of people who live in this country.

So would you like to abolish the Senate? That's part of our platform, and we don't think that's extreme, we think it's a change that would help make this country more democratic. Now, I just love, it isn't extreme to them, by the way. No, it's the whole point, it's not extreme.

Now let's continue about socialism, the general concept of socialism, and then we'll give our analysis of this, but here we go, the same guy Ashik Sadik, on the propaganda of social socialism, okay? Here we go. So there's been a lot of propaganda, since the Cold War and Redskers in the United States,

where very powerful people in the United States felt threatened by the politics we represent. So that's why a lot of people never learned about the history of democratic socialists

In the United States, and that it was organized workers who pushed for things...

work week or ending China's labor, and these are things that are part of the legacy of democratic

socialism in this country, and that's really against nationalism and fascism. So even the label of national socialism that the Nazis used at the time was intentionally meant to trick people, and it worked at the time, unfortunately, in Germany, but that's why we have to emphasize the democratic part of what we're talking about today. So what are they talking about when to get through all the, you know, the mumbo jumbo,

what is he talking about? What they're trying to sell is the tyranny of the majority, which the founding fathers recognized. What they're trying to say, because remember, they want to get rid of the Senate, and

then they wish to get rid of the executive branch and the Supreme Court being separate bodies

of the federal government, and everything would be under the authority of the House. The Senate would be gone. The House would be population only, review this population only, and at that particular point, any of your rights could be taken away if the population, the majority of the people,

wanted your rights to be taken away, and what rights property rights, that's what they're

after. They're after the government's socialism is about the, the government taking over companies. Yep. That's what it's about. That's what socialism is.

Whether it happens through the power of the people to say, we're going to take your property, and we're going to nationalize these businesses, the result is the same, whether it's a dictator, or whether it's the popular vote, the founding fathers recognized that. They knew it back then, and that's the fallacy of Mr. Sadik. That's what he doesn't want to tell you, because what they're saying is, we'll do it

through, if the majority of the population wishes to take away your property, well, it's the democratic process that's doing it.

Now, the people are being represented, and the fact is, again, the tyranny of the majority

and the mob rules, and next thing, you know, you get into this populist thing, because then we have to think about the willfully ignorant, the majority, and it's a number of people that where it just pick any issue that's on the table. Well, shouldn't the government, you know, the big one, shouldn't the government own these businesses?

Nobody has a right to own your home, no one has a right to own these apartment complexes. Well, that's where you get into socialism, which is, again, the government control, again, the means of production, which means they control the government owns the industry, and then you go to communism where there is no private property that is allowed at all.

Well, because what are the first big targets, you know, energy, things that we require

to live, energy, food, now the left will argue that, you know, in terms of air conditioning, you don't need air conditioning, but energy, they recognize, now the thing is, is because with their whole stupid wind and solar powered program, if you won't be able to have air conditioning, and you just don't get the job done, but they'll come in with the big ones that they've been trying to nationalize for a long time, and they are energy.

And of course, the entire medical field, medicine and health care, are those are the two massive chunks of the economy that they believe they should, and the way they sell it is. Nobody should be making a dime off of your health care.

Remember, we got the, nobody should be making a dime off of food, nobody should make

a dime off of water, they even, you know, we had the argument when you said he charges you for water, it's, you know, all the, you shouldn't be charging for water, you shouldn't be charging for health care, nobody should make a dime off of these things, and then what's next, well, our, our logical step back then was, well, food, you need food every day, and then, well, that's right, nobody should make a dime off of corporations, this

is where you get into the mom-dom, mom-domy effect, and that is, you know, the government in that, in that case, the city on a grocery stores, and then you spread, you know, you're

Trying to get this mentality of the willfully ignorant in the direction of, y...

we have a right to food, we have a right to health care, we have a right to energy, we

have a right to property, so think about that, shelter, food, energy, health care, those things, those major items is what they would target in terms of nationalizing those, if they were to get it.

I say, you have a right to your property, exactly, because remember, the, the, the communist,

the socialist, communist, don't want private ownership, right, you know, that's my whole point, is that if they have a right, that, so they want to control shelter, food, health care, and energy. And then when he talks about that the Senate was just for rich people, it wasn't. The founding fathers recognized that you needed to have representation, states need to, and

this is the whole thing, it's never, there were never going to get rid of the Senate, it's

not going to happen, it's not going to happen, but it's interesting to talk about, because it's, why does the Senate exist, because you have these liberals out there saying, well, we're going to get rid of the Senate. The thing for Mont wants to get rid of their representation in the Senate, right, you think New Hampshire, Rhode Island, right, Maine, right, wants to give up their two senators,

right, they lose any type of cloud or representation in the government, and the Senate

was set up to ensure that's why you have bicameral legislators throughout the Western world,

whether it's a parliamentary system or a representative government system, like we have a constitutional republic with a stronger executive branch, that's why it exists, it exists because the founding fathers understood, because they revolted over what, taxation without representation, they knew it, and when you do it, and the beautiful part is, when you see what the future is, they're saying that where the population is going to grow, Texas

and Florida are going to dominate 75 years from now with everything continues to say, yeah, California is going to be a blip when it comes to the increase in the population, people are going to move south, they're going to move, which is why the desperation of CNBC. Well, by all liberal standards, the worst states are the red states, we'll get to that here and look at that, I think National Review did an article on that, I was like, oh my god,

this is, it's so bad, but you said it yesterday, they're desperate, they've got to put stuff out there because they know people are moving, and they're trying to keep people for moving, you know, the best part is the number of people from like Florida, Texas, and Tennessee that said, we are the worst states, don't come here, yeah, oh no, it's horrible, I love that, it's normal here in Texas, it's horrible in Texas, don't come here.

I'll tell you what, it's horrible, it's the traffic from all the people coming here.

But it's no, you think about that, and I remember Robert Reich on social media, putting

on, this goes back, I don't know how many years, but it was three, four, five years ago, but he was making, he was going on a rant about the Senate, I don't know if he used to Wyoming as the example, because Wyoming's got fewer than 600,000 people, they only have one house seat, right? And that used to be Liz Channiac, if I had that seat, but they have two senators, why do

they get two in California only has two? That was his argument, I'm not sure if it was Wyoming, I'm pretty sure it was, but it was

basically a very low population state relatively speaking to California.

And California only gets two senators, this is the problem, and this is what they believe. But you look at the number of house seats in California as opposed to the one in Wyoming. And of course, you look at the, okay, well, that's the representation over in the house. And the district just happens to be the entire state in Wyoming, those, but those ideas. And we have said for the longest time, in fact, we may have to claim today on our 21st anniversary

as a team to go. Oh, that's right, I forgot. Yeah, July 15th. What are we doing? We should be first.

Where's the alcohol? Yeah, we don't have any bourbon, Ron brought muffins, Ron brought muffins. So we have muffins, poppy seeds.

Yeah, I felt up as soon as I, because we'll get tested if we poppy seeds.

But you know, but it's, you know, you look at that, that entire equation, right?

And we said back in the day, you need to own what you actually want.

And now they do, and it's been published. They have their convention. Yep. Now they're out there promoting it. They're saying this is in radical, of course it is.

These things aren't going to happen. This is what they're pushing for, though. We are right, I radio.

Coming up more with Gary McNamara and Eric Carley.

It's right, I radio. We are when I radio, he is Eric Carley, and I'm Gary McNamara. But the Democratic Socialist of America, when you see what they wish to do, there were two things, two of the most main points of the Constitution. One was the separation of powers, which is where power cannot accumulate in one area.

Right.

And so that's why number one, you've got the legislative branch, the judicial branch, and

the executive branch. They want to put the executive branch and the Supreme Court under the judicial branch, under the legislative branch, which would just be the house with no Senate. So what they're saying is, all the power in our society should be by popular vote, which the founding fathers didn't want, because separate, keeping the power from accumulating

in one area was absolutely critical to them.

And the Senate is part of that. Yes. The Senate is part of keeping the legislative branch from having too much power, because the bill of rights is the other core part of it, which just doesn't matter what the popular vote is, bill of rights still stays.
