In this radio segment from January 10, 2026, Seth Grossman of Liberty and Prosperity discusses local New Jersey politics, upcoming elections, and critiques of state and federal policies.

Liberty and Prosperity Events & News

Annual Fundraiser: A brunch fundraiser is scheduled for Sunday, February 15, featuring guest speaker Senator Michael Testa. Tickets are $75.

Top 10 Issues: The organization is currently finalizing its "top 10 issues" for the year and is seeking public input via email.

Political Critiques & Policy Stances

Immigration and ICE: Grossman argues that ICE primarily targets criminals already in custody and that "sanctuary" policies deliberately create neighborhood confrontations by refusing to transfer these individuals directly from jails to federal authorities.

Recycling: He characterizes recycling as a "hidden tax" that is expensive and ineffective, claiming that much of the sorted waste ultimately ends up in overseas landfills or the ocean.

Climate Change: Noting that December 2025 was roughly six degrees colder than the previous year, Grossman expresses skepticism toward policies aimed at further cooling the earth.

Gas Tax and Infrastructure: He critiques the recent 4.2-cent gas tax hike, claiming the revenue is used to bail out old "junk bonds" from the NJ Transportation Trust Fund rather than funding new road repairs.

Diner Tax Relief: Grossman criticizes the "Saving our Diners and Protecting our Past Act" (introduced by Senators Moriarty and Greenwald) as a "corrupt" special-interest tax break that discourages broader demands for honest government.

2026 Election Strategy

Preparation: Grossman emphasizes that those wishing to run for office must start preparing immediately, stating, "He who fails to prepare is preparing to fail".

Key Deadlines:

March 23, 2026: Deadline to file petitions for primary elections.

April 8, 2026: Deadline to switch political parties to vote in a primary.

June 2, 2026: Primary Election day.

July 28, 2026: Deadline to file petitions for school board positions.

November 3, 2026: Midterm Election day.

National Context: He highlights the importance of re-electing Jeff Van Drew and securing a Republican majority in Congress to prevent potential future impeachments of Donald Trump.

EXCERPTS OF ON-AIR CONVERSATION BETWEEN SETH GROSSMAN AND JOHN DEMASI:

Democrats and the Left Deliberately Set Up That Tragedy in Minneapolis.

 

SETH GROSSMAN: The Democrats and the Left set up that horrible tragedy in Minneapolis, because they benefit from it. The Left is making three arguments about ICE, and of course ICE stands for Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It's their job to enforce the immigration laws that Congress enacted pursuant to our Constitution. It's their job to find out and detain people who are illegally in this country.  Most of the people they are looking for are criminals., and most of those criminals are already in jail.  They are already separated from their families because they already committed crimes besides being in this country illegally.

Immigration laws federal laws made pursuant to the U.S. Constitution. Article VI makes the Constitution the Supreme Law of the Land. All state and local officials take an oath to support federal laws made pursuant to the Constitution. One of those laws is that when an illegal alien is in a state prison or county jail, state and local officials have a duty to turn those illegals over to Federal Immigration or Ice.

But in these Sanctuary or Confederate Democrat states like New Jersey and Minnesota, those criminals are released back to residential neighborhoods.  Now ICE Immigration agents have to chase and arrest those criminals there. And this always creates opportunities for violence, injury, and death to the federal agents and to everybody around. This is absolutely despicable. These confrontations out in the streets in residential neighborhoods are totally unnecessary.  So first, the Democrats are creating these confrontations.

Second, Federal agents are not separating families when they go after these criminals. In fact, these Democrat politicians are causing more families to be separated. That is because if the ICE agents arrest an illegal immigrant in a prison, jail or courthouse, only the criminal gets arrested and deported. However, if you force ICE to arrest these criminals at their homes, schools or anywhere else in the neighborhood, ICE has to arrest and detain all other illegals who are around them. So this is all deliberate, and it's all orchestrated. And I think people should know that. 

Finally, the Democrats are saying, this woman wasn't trying to run over the officer.  They say that she was just trying to drive away.  However, she was directly instructed to get out of the car. She was told to do that because she was deliberately interfering with a lawful arrest by blocking traffic. And they immigration agents can't deal with that when they are in the middle of arresting criminals who kill people.

But the woman doesn't get out of the car. Instead, she suddenly backs up, with her partners outside of the car taking a video of the whole thing. Then the woman suddenly drives forward with the officer in front of her.  The officer was looking at the woman. He wasn't looking down at the front tires of the car. The whole thing happened in seconds.

But no matter how you look at it, the Democrats are completely responsible for that tragedy.

Why Are We Still Doing Fake "Recycling"?

 

SETH GROSSMAN:  Every year, Liberty and Prosperity, we make a list of the ten most important issues that we promote during the course of the year. That's another reason to attend our Saturday breakfasts. But if you can't come to our breakfast, please email us at [email protected] or, go to one of the posts on our website and make a comment. That way, we can take your views into consideration. And I hope we keep the fake "recycling" of the Atlantic County Utilities Authority on that list.

Few people talk about recycling. However, everybody talks about how everything is too expensive and nothing is affordable anymore. And that taxes are too high. But hardly anybody talks about the things that make everything too expensive. And the things that make everything too expensive are not just the income taxes and sales taxes and property taxes we see. We also pay all these other taxes and costs that are buried in the higher prices we pay for everything. And one of them is recycling. 

Think of how expensive it is when we have to wash some of our garbage before we dump it. We waste time, and energy for hot water to wash out bottles and cans and containers. And for what? We then put them in a separate container. We have to pay for two sets of garbage trucks to pick up two separate containers along the same route, wasting gas and salaries  and pensions and benefits to pay for twice the work. And then a truck takes the so-called recycling to a filthy building in Egg Harbor Township where we pay a whole lot of people to separate that garbage again. Some for plastic, some for paper and some for cans.

And then the ACUA prints up fake newspapers four times a year to tell us how important it is to do this. And of course we pay more salaries, benefits and pensions for people to do this.  But one thing they never tell you is what happens to the stuff. Have you ever seen in those four free fake newspapers that you get from the ACUA every year? Did they ever tell you what they do with this stuff?  Did you ever see a single article saying, this is what we're doing with this stuff? No. And this is how much money we're making, and these are the new products that are recycled, and this is how much energy we are saving?

JOHN DEMASI:  No.

 

Do They Ever Tell You What They Do With The Garbage They Pick Up As "Recycling"?

 

SETH GROSSMAN:  That's or this is how much energy we're saving. But they don't tell you because we all know what happens. They take it. They put it on trucks to some Bayonne or Elizabeth or some port somewhere. Then it goes on a cargo ship, and then it goes to some Third World country where they dump it in a field. Then it washes into a river and then into the ocean. That is why we have this plastic mess polluting the ocean. And causing God knows what health problems with the microplastics.

Think of the massive amounts of money we spend doing this. But New Jersey has a state law that forces us to do that. And nobody talks about it. That's because people get high paid government jobs to do this. No politician wants to fight with them. And so this goes on and on.  Just like many things the government does. And we pay and pay. This is added to the price of every thing we buy and every service we get.

But that's just my pet issue. Every year, we decide the ten most important issues we want to talk about. So if anyone wants to put an issue on that list, please let us know.

JOHN DEMASI: I really had a laugh when you said you wash your garbage. 

SETH GROSSMAN:  Only in New Jersey do we have laws that force us to wash out our garbage so it can be picked up separately and then dumped thousands of miles away. And then these same people tell us, you're wasting too much natural gas for your hot water. Your wasting water. You're putting too much carbon into the air. That was the only country in the world where you wash your garbage and you wouldn't put the trash in. I mean and and you wait and they tell you, oh, you're using too much hot water. You're wasting too much energy. And then we have two sets of garbage trucks driving the same routes, stopping at the same housing, burning all that gasoline. The whole thing is nuts!

Climate Change:  South Jersey Was 6 Degrees Colder Last Month!

Brian Fitzherbert, president of Liberty and Prosperity, joins Anne Baker on WOND radio for the first 'Fitzherbert Friday' of the new year.  Brian tee's off on Minnesota and multi-state welfare fraud, Mamdani's communism, and says Ilhan Omar may be forced to resign in 2026.

Seth Grossman Spent the Last Three Months Writing a History Book:  "1676 Project".

Seth Grossman announced that Liberty and Prosperity has an ambitious agenda for the year and requested $30 in annual dues by January 1st to help maintain their media presence.

Grossman stated he has finished a new book titled Project 1676, which is expected to be published in about a week.

The book is intended as a counter to the New York Times' 1619 Project; Grossman argues that America was not shaped by slavery, but by the "liberty and prosperity" established by Quakers in South Jersey in 1676.

What Happened to Kwanza"

Grossman discussed Kwanzaa, theorizing that it has disappeared from the media landscape because it was a "fake holiday" created to destroy Christmas and is no longer useful to the political Left, partly due to conflicts with Islamic influence.

He commented on the death of Brigitte Bardot, criticizing the media for describing her simply as an "animal rights activist" while ignoring her specific political objections to Muslim immigration and halal slaughter practices.

He critiqued the Netflix movie Good Fortune, arguing that Hollywood falsely blames "greedy capitalists" for economic struggles, whereas he believes the real blame lies with government debt and spending.

Socialism Always Brings High Prices and Massive Fraud.

Grossman agreed with Harry Hurley’s comments regarding rising health insurance premiums, attributing the cost explosion to third-party payment systems.

He used the example of his father, a dentist who charged $2 for fillings in the 1960s, to argue that costs remain low when patients pay directly, but skyrocket due to administration and fraud once insurance or the government pays.

Join Us For Breakfast Any Saturday in Somers Point.

The organization holds weekly breakfast meetings every Saturday from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM at Sal's Coal Fired Pizza in Somers Point.

SETH GROSSMAN:  I want to first apologize for not sending email updates during the past five weeks. That's because I've been writing a history book. Its called 1676 Project: How Liberty and Prosperity in Quaker South Jersey Shaped America. What does that mean?

Well, about five or six years ago, the New York Times did a project called the sixteen nineteen Project. And according to that project, it's a bunch of teaching materials which dominates every school and college in America. And it basically teaches that, well, in Virginia, the first slaves came to Virginia in 1619. And they say that everything about America since then has been based on, conquest, exploitation, and slavery, and that America was an evil country until just about twenty years ago when Obama changed it. And that's why we had to change America from this evil country of 1619 to make it the, the new America of Obama and Biden and Mamdani. And what I did during the past six weeks, I did a lot of research as to how South Jersey was created. And what I found out is that, South Jersey was created by Quakers in 1676 even before, William Penn came to Philadelphia. And, basically, the Liberty and Prosperity, created by Quakers in New Jersey in 1676, made America great for 300 years. If you want America to be great again, we have to start doing what those Quakers did back in 1676. 

SETH GROSSMAN:  What happened to Kwanzaa? Have you heard much about Kwanzaa during the past two weeks?

JOHN DEMASI: No. Nothing at all.

SETH GROSSMAN: Today is either the fifth or sixth day of Kwanzaa.Ten years ago, that was a big deal. It would be in the front page of the paper. The Kwanzaa event would be sponsored by most libraries and schools. It was on TV. Kwanzaa books were all over the children's section of big box stores like Target. Kwanzaa, Kwanzaa, Kwanzaa. 

And now suddenly, it's gone. It reminds me of that Sherlock Holmes mystery where the dog that did not bark was more important than the dog that barked. Here's my theory on what happened to Kwanzaa. Now Kwanzaa, of course, was always a fake holiday. It was invented, by this radical, black nationalist in Los Angeles called Ron Everett right after the Watts riots of 1965.  In those days, you had a new group of Black militants who hated everything white. They had Afro hair, the Afro dress, they tried to speak Swahili. And, of course, they did not want black Americans celebrating Christmas and sharing that beautiful holiday with white people. So they invented this fake holiday that only black people in America could celebrate. And it was just black Americans. Black immigrants from Africa, Haiti, and Jamaica never heard of this Kwanzaa holida and wanted nothing to do with it.

And the guy who invented it, Ron Everett was a genuine psychopath. He actually murdered people. His black nationalist was feuding with the Black Panthers, another radical black nationalist group.  In 1969, Ron Everett's group murdered two unarmed Black Panthers in cold blood on the campus of UCLA. Later Everett was convicted for sadistically torturing two women in his group with a soldering iron. It was real horrible stuff. He was sent to prison, for about twenty or thirty years.

But J. Edgar Hoover, the guy who ran the FBI for more than 30 years liked this lunatic who invented Kwanzaa. That was because J. Edgar Hoover and the FBI hated Communists, and Ron Everett's group was murdering Black Panthers who were Communists. So Ron Everett was somehow released from prison early, he got a lot of his records expunged. Now the criminal Ron Everett is a distinguished academic scholar called Maulana Karenga. Now he is paid to speak at colleges around America, including Stockton.

That's where the holiday of Kwanzaa came from, and that's why it was a big deal. So why is it not a big deal this year? And I have a feeling I have two explanations, and maybe our listeners might have some ideas. Number one, I think we don't hear about Kwanzaa because, the whole holiday was invented to destroy Christmas. And it's almost like a mission accomplished. They succeeded in destroying Christmas as a central part of  American public life. We no longer say Merry Christmas. We say happy holidays. And TD Bank was typical of many corporations that actually instructed their employees not to say "Merry Christmas" to customers.

So that's part of it. But I also think part of it is the new Muslim influence. It's like we don't need a fake holiday, to destroy Christian America, to destroy Christmas. We now have the Muslims doing it, and and now it's just embarrassing, to to have, you know, black Americans embracing something other than Islam. But whatever it is, it just shows how the left uses things like Kwanzaa when it's useful for their purposes. But as soon as it's not useful anymore, it's gone. It's over its history. They just move on to something else. So I think that's worth talking about. And we will have many other things to talk about in 2026.

The media also changed the narrative on Brigitte Bardot. She was one of the greatest sex goddesses for us Boomer guys growing up in the 1960s.

JOHN DEMASI:  Yes, sexy French actress.

SETH GROSSMAN:  Now the media calls her an animal rights activist. Well, she was a lot more than that. She also spoke out against the mass migration of Muslims to France. And she did mention the barbaric way they slaughtered animals for their Halal meat. But when she died, they didn't mention that. They just called her an animal rights activist. So, it it just you know, that the news is almost everything the news is slanted to promote a certain political agenda, even the death of a beloved French actress at the age of 90.

Will Republicans fix health insurance? Harry Hurley talked about this earlier during the week.  Health insurance premiums for many people are going to almost double when they renew this year. And if Republicans and president Trump don't get a handle on this issue, then, it's just going to wipe them out in in the midterm elections and we'll lose control of Congress. 

And this failure of Republicans in Washington to deal with health insurance reminds me of the failure of Republicans in New Jersey to deal with high electric bills.  We have high electric bills in New Jersey because Governor Murphy and the Democrats shut down the six power plants. That forced us to buy expensive electricity out of state and caused rates to go up. The only way to fix the problem is to rebuild the power plants to make the rates go down. Very simple issue. And, of course, Jack talked about this on your program and when talking to other Republicans. But he never made it a key part of his campaign, the way a Democrat called Jim McGreevey once made high auto insurance the key part of his campaign.

And because the Republicans couldn't come up up with a clear, persuasive message, voters were confused, and Democrats used their issues to define the campaign.  And that message was hate Trump and vote against Ciattarelli because Ciattarelli is with Trump.

 I think Harry Hurley was very correct in in pointing out this danger that if Republicans don't identify what is causing, health insurance to go up and have a program for Republicans to bring those costs down. It's gonna be a rerun of what happened in New Jersey. And so I'd like to talk a little bit about, what's causing the, the health care to go up.

JOHN DEMASI: Yeah. What is causing it?

SETH GROSSMAN: Well, of course, we see the massive fraud with the Somali, clinics, in Minnesota. But I actually grew up watching this train wreck start years ago because my father was a dentist. And I remember in the nineteen sixties when he was, you know, was was fixing teeth, and he was charging $2 a filling in the, in the nineteen sixties. And then suddenly, they had, Linda Johnson and the Great Society, and they had Medicaid for poor people. And they would pay the dentist, you know,

Brian Fitzherbert, president of Liberty and Prosperity, joins Anne Baker on WOND radio for 'Fitzherbert Friday'.

Brian and Anne talk about violent illegal criminals, immigrants who resist assimilation into American culture, the mental health crisis in America, and more.

This broadcast from Liberty and Prosperity discusses local Atlantic County issues, national politics, and cultural shifts. The group meets every Saturday morning at Sal’s Coal Fired Pizza in Somers Point, NJ.

Local and Legal Issues

Marty Small Trial: The speakers discussed the recent acquittal of Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small. They argued the case was politically motivated, comparing the situation to the legal challenges faced by Donald Trump and highlighting the difficulties of parenting teenagers in the public eye.

Business Closures: The upcoming closure of Big Wally’s Furniture in Somers Point was presented as a symptom of a broader social issue. The speakers noted that younger generations often lack interest in taking over established family businesses, leading to the loss of local economic "backbones".

Technology and Education

Digital Learning: Based on observations of grandchildren in Florida, the speakers critiqued the use of tablets and "educational" games in schools. They argued these apps prioritize button-mashing over "persistence" and critical thinking, which they believe are the true keys to success.

Media Influence: The speakers expressed concern over children's media, specifically mentioning the "K-pop Demon Hunters" cartoon. They critiqued its departure from traditional values and the perceived sexualization of characters at a young age.

National Political Climate

Republican Fracturing: The news of Elise Stefanik leaving Congress was interpreted as a warning sign for the GOP. The speakers described a blood-bath scenario where internal party splits between various media-driven factions make it difficult for candidates to secure nominations and win general elections.

Messaging Failures: Regarding Donald Trump’s immigration policies, the speakers argued he is not receiving "credit" for enforcement because he hasn't effectively explained the why behind his actions. They compared this to Jack Ciattarelli’s campaign, suggesting that if leaders don't explicitly link policies to outcomes (like high utility rates), the public will remain s

Jury Did Right Thing In Finding Mayor Marty Small "Not Guilty".

TRANSCRIPT OF RADIO INTERVIEW:

SETH GROSSMAN: I agree all four points you raised: #1. Political. #2. Raising Teens. #3. Government Interfering with Families. #4. Like What They Did To Donald Trump.

#1. Political: I said from the very beginning, if Marty Small had been anything other than the Democratic mayor of Atlantic City feuding with a Republican prosecutor handpicked by Senator Vince Polistina, would these charges have been brought? And I kept saying to myself, no, they would not.

.#2. I was a parent who raised teens. I probably didn't do what Marty Small did, but at times, I sure felt like doing it. And, and, you know, it's just a very difficult job to raise any teens, including teenage girls. 

#3. I am sick of how the government interferes with parents raising children ins so many ways. It happens so often in very subtle ways.  I'm convinced that the reason the schools use all these different terms to teach, say, arithmetic or teach, any subject, they deliberately want the parents to appear stupid. 

They don't want parents to say, "Oh, I can help you with your homework". They teach kids completely different methods than what we, our parents and our grandparents learned.

When it comes to the sexual materials that they use to teach the kids, they tell the kids, "Your parents don't know anything. Don't trust them. Talk to your teacher. Confide in your teacher. Confide in your school nurse. Don't deal with the parents.

It's all part of a systematic campaign by the so-called "educators" shove parents aside and keep them in the dark. And when parents do try to get involved, when they try to actively raise their kids the way they think is best, these "educators" use all sorts of methods to cause needless conflict between kids and their parents. So the kids get defiant and the parents sometimes feel a need for harsher discipline.

 And when I saw all these things, they reminded me a lot of how Democrats came after Trump. I felt they abused the legal system to destroy a political opponent.

JOHN DEMASI: Yes. I I I agree. You know? And I I said that from the very beginning that, I thought he was he was going to be acquitted, but, and and then when the jury, you know, they started asking questions and, you know, this whole thing about the broom and the it it just seemed like a he said, she said.

SETH GROSSMAN: And so, that it almost sounds like what every parent of every teenager has gone through at some point in that long and painful process.

BIG WALLY'S FURNITURE STORE: Another Successful Family Business Closing Down For Good.

SETH GROSSMAN: Big Wally's Furniture Store going out of business in Somers Point. To me, this is more than just a business issue. I think this is part of a bigger political and social issue. We have countless small businesses. And, obviously, the people who run the businesses get old, they retire.

,But in the past, they didn't all just go out of business like this.

JOHN DEMASI: Why is that?

SETH GROSSMAN: I don't have any inside knowledge of this situation. I don't know the owners. But I know a lot about other family businesses that shut down during the past twenty years. Partly, it's because our Boomer generation didn't have a lot of kids. Many didn't have any kids. A lot of kids never got married, and never had their own kids.

And many who do have kids and grandkids are finding that they don't want grandpa's business. They don't want dad's business.

It used to be, well, if your own kids or grandkids don't want to take over your business. someone else would come in and buy it. You would teach them the business, and they would buy your store, buy your inventory and you'd introduce them to your customers.

For many people the sale of the business they spent their lives building up was most of what they needed for a comfortable retirement. But now many of them just walk away after selling their equipment and inventory and empty building for pennies on the dollar.

And I think that's a a social thing. I think that's a political thing. We have taught our children to run a small business or even how to run a small business. We have high paid government officials and inspectors who do nothing but fine business owners and shut them down for not following rules that make no sense.

 We have taught our young people to find themselves instead of planning, and training, and working to provide other people with things and services they need and want to pay for.

lWe have taught young people to expect and demand things and to be entitled to things. However, we have not taught them what needs to be done to earn these things. Whatever it is, our schools and our culture are not preparing young people to accept the responsibility of running small businesses like Big Wally's and businesses like Big Wally's are the backbone of America.

So it's something we're losing, and and I just think it's a tragic situation that very few people talk about. 

JOHN DEMASI: How do we fix that? Do you know what we can do?

SETH GROSSMAN: I don't know. However, we can't fix something if we don't know about it. And the first step to get people to know about a problem is to talk about it like we are doing right now.

Meanwhile, I I was away for to spend Hanukkah with my grandkids in Florida. So I want to give a heads up to my Boomer friends celebrating Christmas. And that is find out what toys your grandchildren are getting and watch the YouTube video tutorials on how to play with them. Because if you don't, you're going to be totally helpless. 

For Hanukkah last week, my grandkids were all fascinated with this electric electronic hamster in a ball and several electronic dogs.  I didn't have a clue as to what to do with any of them until I spent about an hour and a half watching these YouTube videos on how to operate them.

So I just wanted to give you all a heads up before you have to deal with this on Christmas.

JOHN DEMASI: That that's a new thing. That's another thing we have to do. Right? Yeah.

SETH GROSSMAN: And there's something else. I was dealing with a kindergartner and a first grader, you know, six years old and seven years old. This is in the Florida public school, so I'm pretty sure it's the same all over. So already, they have their little computer tablets. They have their user IDs. They know their passwords. They know how to get to their portal and and log in.

On the one hand, it's it makes it easy for the parents and grandparents because it keeps the kids busy for a little bit. But, you know, as I watch closely, we really have to watch out for these so-called video education games. In my opinion, they are really not education.

Here's why. When you think about it, the most valuable skill that you could possibly learn in school, and in life, is persistence. If you want to do something you don't know how to do, or know something you don't know, the key to success is to think. You have to work out the problem in your head.  You think of what you know, what you don't know. You try something. Does it work? If not, you try something else. Eventually, you solve the problem and you make yourself smarter.

When you are educated by computers, this doesn't happen. I see the kids just randomly pushing buttons until the right answer pops up. But being educated is not knowing the right answer. Being educated is knowing how to find the right answer.

So we are not educating our kids and not helping our kids when we teach them to just push buttons on a machine programmed by somebody else to find the right answer. We are teaching them that you can succeed without thinking, without patience, without overcoming obstacles. without working out plans.

Brian Fitzherbert, president of Liberty and Prosperity, joins Anne Baker on WOND radio for 'Fitzherbert Friday'.

Brian and Anne take a deep dive into the world of AI, and the national security strategic ramifications of its advancing technology.

JFK killer. Lee Harvey Oswald. Similarities. Charlie Kirk killer.

Occam’s Razor: simplest is usually best explanation.

Senator Polistina wants $3 tax on casino parking to again pay for CRDA political slush fund.

Do we really need more debt and more failures like empty train station, baseball stadium, and two empty convention centers?

CRDA paid a million dollars for the Delilah's Den strip club. It just sold it for $100,000! Cui bono?  Who benefited? 

If we still need to tax free casino parking in Atlantic City, we should use that money to pay off the rest of Governor Christie's illegal $400 million debt from his state takeover.

Republicans can win if they can show how Democrat socialist programs make everything expensive.  Democrats spent trillions of dollars to make housing, college and health care "affordable". Instead, they made those things unaffordable.

Meanwhile government stopped regulating airline prices. And now airline prices are lower than ever.

Spirit often flies you to Florida for less than you pay for parking or and Uber to get you to and from the airport.

Affordable prices.

New Jersey started a new state sales tax and income tax to bring down real estate taxes.  Now all three are high!

$30,000 per year just to pay for one child for one year in public school. But Republicans never even talk about this, let alone do anything about it. 

Who killed John F. Kennedy? Examine the evidence. Apply Occam's Razor

https://youtu.be/uvJp3hCBPHM?si=mwwPURji3drNHBvK

Last week, you had a caller from California who said, "Everybody knows that the CIA killed John Kennedy." That just shows the ignorance that is out there. The overwhelming and undisputed, evidence is that Lee Harvey Oswald killed John F. Kennedy, that Oswald was a loner, he was a failure in life, and he wanted to be important. This Lee Harvey Oswald met the same profile as the guy who shot Trump last year, the guy who tried to kill President Ronald Reagan in 1981, and the guy who killed Charlie Kirk last September. We have this epidemic of young lost men (and so-called  "transgender women" taking hormones) who think that they can make themselves important by killing somebody. 

When one of those nobodies kills somebody important, it is very easy to say they were part of a much bigger conspiracy. You say this could have happened or that could have happened. But when you start doing this, it is important to apply something called "Occam's Razor."

https://youtu.be/Ie53YZiRZy0?si=rHVyc8vvXYIo1z6h

Occam's Razor is a philosophical tool. It reminds us that the simplest explanation is usually the best explanation.

President John F. Kennedy was shot on Friday, February 22, 1963, while riding in the back seat of an open car in Dallas, Texas. There is overwhelming evidence that Kennedy was shot from behind. Lee Harvey Oswald worked in a building behind where Kennedy was shot. A rifle owned and used by Oswald was later found there. Oswald's fingerprints were on it. Oswald had a whole history of motives to kill President Kennedy. He previously tried to kill a political figure. He was a Communist who admired Fidel Castro. He had no friends. Nobody understood him. He wanted to be important. He left the building and the area right away. A normal person would have been curious and hung around to find out what had happened.

So there is lots of evidence that Oswald was the shooter, and that Oswald acted alone.  What is the evidence that somebody else was the shooter?

To reach that conclusion, you have to say Kennedy was really shot from the front. So how do you get around the autopsy evidence that Kennedy was shot from behind? You have to say, "they changed his body". Or "they removed his brain".  It's always "They did this." or "They did that."  But you always have to ask yourself, "Who is the 'they'"?

Are you talking about the doctors at the closest hospital to the shooting? Were all those doctors in on the conspiracy before the shooting? Who approached them? What did they say? Did they say, "Some guy is going to pretend to shoot the President next week, but he's really going to be shot by somebody front the front, and we need you to remove the President's brain so nobody finds out?" 

And then you have dozens of other doctors, nurses, janitors, and visitors to the operating room. And don't they all have to be bribed or persuaded to be in the conspiracy? And the more people, the more moving parts you have. And now it's likely that at least one of them is going to get drunk, someone's going to have remorse. Somebody will tell a boyfriend or girlfriend. Somebody's going to want to get even with somebody. Somebody will get divorced, or break up with the boyfriend or girlfriend. All this stuff comes out when more people are involved.

Did it happen later? Then you have a lot or people involved. Where was Kennedy's body taken. How many people knew who had access to it. Wouldn't somebody have seen or hear something unusual and said something about it?

So in explaining events like this, the simplest and most logical explanation is almost always the correct explanation.

Should Atlantic City's $3 tax on "Free Parking" be used as a slush fund again?

Last week, we talked about Senator Vince Polistina and the $3 tax on free parking in Atlantic City. The Senator wants it to again pay for special CRDA projects for so-called "redevelopment".  Is that a good idea?  Just look at what CRDA did with that money in the past. The spent millions on a baseball stadium that is empty. A train station that is empty, and empty Boardwalk Hall for entertainment that used to be a convention center, but now it is empty because the same politicians built a new convention center in the middle of nowhere next to the empty train station.

And CRDA just did one more thing.  About a year or two ago, CRDA bought Delilah's Den, a strip club in Atlantic City on Pacific Avenue for a million dollars. Then they realized they didn't really need it.  So they put it up for auction for $300,000 last summer. I think they sold it for $100,000 last week. So this is what CRDA does. They spend money and they buy stuff.  They bail out people with political connections. CRDA pays top dollar for properties that nobody wants, so a handful of insiders make money on bad investments.  By the way, that is also what the state Open Space program was all about. But that's something else. 

So no, we shouldn't let CRDA get its hands on this money again.  We shouldn't have a tax on free parking.

Until Bill Gormley came up with this great idea, almost all of the casinos offered free parking. That helped every business in town. People used to park for free at the casinos and shop on the Boardwalk or on Atlantic Avenue. But then Republican Senator Bill Gormley said lets put a $3 tax on free parking. And then, since the casinos had to pay people to collect the tax, they started charging money in addition to the tax and that was the end of most free casino parking in Atlantic City.

I would simply abolish the tex.  However, it we have to have that tax, we should use it to pay off the rest of that illegal $400 million debt Governor Chris Christie stuck Atlantic City with when he had the state take over Atlantic City in 2010. 

Republicans are getting clobbered on "affordability" because they refuse to explain how bad government makes everything so expensive.

. The Republicans are getting clobbered on affordability for a very simple reason. When people run into high prices and they complain something ought to be done, what the Republican should be doing is saying, number one, this is why the price of this is high. And number two, this is what we have to do to make it go down. And if we do these things, then the price will come down. And I'll give you a good example. Not everything's going up. You know I've been going to Florida quite a bit to visit the grandkids. So I fly on Spirit Airlines for $90 from, here to Fort Lauderdale. And the airfare, to go 1,100 miles is cheaper than what it cost me to take an Uber to the airport and pay for my parking while I'm away for a week. So so so so why is it cheaper to go 1,100 miles than it is to go, 20 miles and park my car? Actually, not even. It's like eight miles and park my car. Well, the the short answer is freedom and liberty. When it comes to airfare, I could choose when I fly, where I fly, what company I use, which airport I go to. So I have choices and because I have choices, the price comes down. In fact, I think we're having another airline besides Virta, Allegiant Yes. Will be flying to Fort Lauderdale and to Punta Gorda, I believe Yes. On West Coast. So so freedom and choices and liberty makes things affordable. What makes things not affordable? Well, when you don't have a choice, everything that government does that politicians decide is expensive. So, let's talk about housing. You know, housing is very So, let's talk about housing. You know, housing is very expensive. Why? Because real estate taxes are high. What can we do to make real estate taxes lower? Well, then you see, well, this is the cost of our public schools. We have to have, we have, you know, public employee unions. We have teacher unions. We have, all these laws. You know, Americans are rather in I I think it's called individuals with disabilities and education act. You have to have diversity. You have all these rules where the government forces you, to spend anywhere from 30 to $80,000 for each student for each year. Someone has to pay for that. But do you hear Republicans or anybody else saying your property taxes are too high because you're spending money on this. So if you want property taxes lower,

Summary of the conversation between the host (Anne), Rich B and Brian.

Thanksgiving and Football

Rich B Check-in: Rich B joined briefly to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving and mentioned he was heading to the Eagles game. He hoped for a better outcome than the Dallas Cowboys game.

Pie Friday: Anne mentioned a "Pie Friday" concept she saw on Sean Spiller's Facebook page, suggesting people eat leftover pies the morning after Thanksgiving to get rid of them.

Immigration and National Policy

Trump’s Truth Social Post: Brian discussed a recent post by Donald Trump regarding a pause on immigration from third-world countries until the current situation is addressed. Brian argued that halting illegal immigration would solve 80% of American problems.

Economic Impact: Brian linked illegal immigration to rising costs in housing, healthcare, and car insurance, noting that demand from people who "do not belong here" drives up prices.

National Guard Tragedy: Brian referenced an incident involving an individual who overstayed a visa and was involved in the murder of two National Guardsmen.

Assimilation vs. Presence: Both Anne and Brian agreed that while immigration has a place, the current lack of assimilation and the strain on resources is unsustainable. Brian stated that the US is a nation of settlers, not just a nation of immigrants.

The Dignity Act: Anne criticized the "Dignity Act," arguing it allows illegal immigrants to stay by paying a fine and taxes but grants them no path to citizenship, essentially creating a permanent "working class" that still burdens the taxpayer.

New Jersey State Politics

Mikie Sherrill and Jennifer Granholm: Anne expressed concern over reports that incoming NJ Governor candidate Mikie Sherrill is bringing in Jennifer Granholm. Anne views this as a continuation of "Green New Deal" policies, specifically opposing wind turbines along the coast.

State Control vs. Local Municipalities: Brian predicted that Sherrill, if elected, would follow a "soft power" strategy similar to Phil Murphy. He suggested she would withhold state funding to force municipalities to comply with state mandates regarding housing or energy projects.

Economic Outlook: Brian forecasted that these policies would lead to higher energy prices and a continuation of "socialist" price controls.

Political Integrity and Leadership

Jeff Van Drew & Frank LoBiondo: Anne praised Congressman Jeff Van Drew and former Congressman Frank LoBiondo for their integrity. She contrasted them with other politicians she views as "grifters".

District vs. DC Congressmen: Brian distinguished between "District Congressmen" (like Van Drew and LoBiondo), who focus on their constituents and making deals to help their specific area, versus "DC Congressmen," who focus on media appearances and climbing the political ladder in Washington.

The Hatch Act: Anne concluded the segment by stating she wants to discuss the "Hatch Act" in a future conversation, implying that many local politicians might be in violation of it and should face legal consequences.
