All right, good morning everybody. It is six o eight here on the
Case Yo Day Radio program, Tuesday edition. If I had to rank them,
just the you know, just out of sheer enthusiasm for the effort.
I think the boat the boat jump challenge might be my new favorite in the
realm of really really dumb ideas with darwindow stick effects. So if you're not
if you're not familiar with this, I was not until I read about it
yesterday. Thumbs up for stupidity on the TikTok so um Ross. Had you
seen the boat jump challenge? No, no idea what that is? Well,
it's in the It's in the prep packet, yes, But I mean,
had you seen it prior to that? As I did not see it
in the prep packet. Oh okay, you know what I wonder if I
didn't send it in the prep pet. Oh you know what, I didn't
send it in the prep packet. That's one hundred percent on me. Allow
me to explain. You could have just lied to me because I'm at the
point like dry dude, I'm like super hot and nauseous. I was like
loopy am I pulled over, So you could have just totally lied him.
Like, Okay, I was totally in the prep back dude, No was
in there. No, I just realized I saw it after and I'd emailed
it to myself, but I didn't send in the prep all right. So
so the boat jumped challenge has nothing to do with cruise ships, by the
way, yet maybe it should. Don't know, has already killed four people
just in the state of Alabama in the last six months. And it goes
like this, Uh so you're on a boat, uh you know, like
a ski boat or a bass boat or something, and you're cooking along the
water and um, then you jump or backflip off of the speeding boat while
it's you know, cutting through at forty knots or whatever, and you make
a video of it obviously, and that you know, you end up in
the water. The problem is it's a really good way to break your neck
or knock yourself out and then you drown. And yet that's a challenge on
the TikTok and it's like it's like there's a competition for this stuff to just
get more. Honestly, I think people are trying to reverse the effects of
modern society as it pertains to how we used to genetically weed out the stupid,
and I don't know that I'm one hundred percent against that. You know,
I've told you. I've told you about the story I saw years ago
where they were trying to figure out why you had a stagnation of measurable IQ
in certain commune unities that were advanced communities, you know, first world kind
of stuff. And you know, basically, we make it really hard to
die if you're stupid, or make it harder to die, people still find
ways. And you know, whether that's one hundred percent the reason, I
don't know, but it you know, it tracks. It makes sense right.
Used to be, you do something dumb and your your your bloodline doesn't
move forward. Right. All you had to do was, like I don't
know, Forida River in your attempt to get to Oregon, and uh,
you're going, that's that. You're done. Now. It's it's incredible what
you can do and still eventually reproduce. It literally is the opening scenes of
idiocy. See, so that's the challenge. Now. I will tell you
a challenge that I do find amusing but I don't understand is the Grimace challenge.
Are you familiar with that either? So it has to do with the
Grimace shake at McDonald's and then people buy the shake and then all of a
sudden there's like a cut scene and it looks like a horror film murder mystery
where people are dead and I guess the premise is the Grimace murdered them,
right, And it's mostly just people lying on the ground having poured the shake
over their body, and you know, appearing to be in a horror movie.
All right, whatever, weird, but so of it's pretty entertaining.
This, on the other hand, this is something special right here. Jim
Dennis of Alabama is Schildersburg. I don't know exactly where that is. Rescue
Squad says it's led to four easily avoidable drowning deaths. It's a big concern.
We've seen this pattern emerge over the last two years. It's a bit
sporadic, but apparently it's picked up a little bit of steam. In one
instance in February, father died while attempting the challenge in front of his wife
and three young children. So there you go. I this I know,
being somebody who you know previously decided hey, you know, it'd be a
good idea and totally not something that just devastates your finances. I should get
a boat. So in this case, I co owned a boat with somebody,
and there's a reason stance for a breakout another thousand. But it was
a ski boat, a wakeboard boat. And you know, I don't care
whether you're skiing or wakeboarding or you're in that giant inflatable tube or whatever.
You're getting tugged along in the water. Once you're about out twenty seven thirty
knots, you know, which is an appropriate speed to do that. That
water feels a bit concreteish when we hit it. So in this case,
they're cooking along and they're not even at speed. Do you know what I'm
saying, right, they're not. There's no there's no inertia so to spit.
I mean, they're at speed, but they're not. I don't even
know how to describe it. So when they hit the water, it looks
horrific, more so than just me, who was never any good at water
skiing or wakeboarding. But you know, I could send a tube until it
like launches in the air and then you know, throws the individual off.
In this case, they're literally doing backflips into this stuff. So um,
yeah, I didn't know that was a thing. Now I know it's a
thing. And between that and the Board Challenge whatever, I guess, um,
you know, maybe we'll reverse some of those uh those IQ effects.
I don't know. The Board Challenge, by the way, has nothing to
do with Star trek Um. What is this, dude, dude? Okay,
well, apparently one of our listeners did the h did the challenge and
survived. Okay, well, I'm not saying everyone dies. I just it
doesn't seem incredibly smart. The Board Challenge, by the way, is when
they get the big jug of water with the caffeine flavoring and the electrolytes,
and then they pour a whole bottle alcohol in there, and then they got
a chug the milk jug full of it, which you know reportedly allows people
to drink but stay hydrated. But that's not how that works. You just
overwhelm your system. So yeah, I want to know who's just sitting around
coming up with this stuff. Uh so far, what is this? Two
dozen University of Massachusetts and her students were actually hospitalized following the Board Challenge just
earlier this year. Well that's nice, dude, this is yeah, I'll
tell you what this this is? This is China right here, because it's
all it's on this TikTok stuff and it's not just that you've seen it on
YouTube and other stuff, but um, this is a weapon of war.
Man. I got to assume there's a bunch of brainiacts sent around in China
going hey, you know what, here's how we'll attack the American populace next
and then boom, you get yourself one of these challenges. What did the
chiefs? He says. You know, people when they're being filmed on camera
tend to do things that are do something stupid to show off, but they
don't need to be on camera. It's the hey y'all watch this factor.
But yeah, that was a little something my laid eyes on yesterday, and
I'm like, you know what, why not go ahead and do it?
How fast was the boat going here? Oh well it's a competition ski boat,
so I thought they were cooking along. Man. All right, well,
don't do that. If you listen to the show, I'd like you
not to do that. But you know, if there's people you know they're
dumb and don't listen to the show, then I don't know, maybe show
them a video, or or suggest they listened to the show and then we'll
welcome them in. All right, coming up on said show, we got
lots to get it. Well, let me do this, because it's six
seventeen. I'll give you a little rundown of where we're headed this morning.
We gotta say we got a lot of weird celebrity stuff, so we'll get
into that here in just a bit, six eighteen Hang on Smart Talk all
day, four five WPTI in the Triad and one oh six one FM Talk
in the Triangle. Well, look, here is a guy in the news.
Obviously doesn't listen to the show, or he would know better than this.
He would know better. A man at Kentucky has announced that he found
over seven hundred Civil War era coins buried in his coin field. They're gold
and silver, dude, you gotta shut up on this stuff. Being referred
to as the Great Kentucky Hoard, it includes hundreds of US gold pieces dating
between eighteen forty and eighteen sixty three. In a video the man, of
course posted, although he did not disclose his identity or specific location, he
says they're all one dollar gold coins, twenty dollars gold coins, and ten
dollar gold coin. Well, that's what they're minute at either obviously probably worth
a lot more than that. Um. Let's see here. Yeah. So
the rarest of the coins, and there's eighteen of them, are twenty dollars
one ounce gold liberty coins from eighteen sixty three, which go for about six
figures each, a minted by the US Treasury. Well, actually, you
know what, I maybe he maybe they're not going to have a problem with
it. I don't know. That's the whole legend, right, the Confederate
gold everywhere. Let's see here. Um, just just you wonder how so
there's there's two theories on this stuff. Well I don't I don't know if
it's a theory. One is more of a theory, um, and that
is the Confederate government obviously had big cases of moneies that that were stolen and
hidden as the war was coming to an end. However, as you were
leaning into the Civil War, you had many in the South who buried cases
of coins basically so they wouldn't get taken. Let's see here. That's yeah,
all right, So this is actually the article quotes the one I'm thinking
of. Basically, the Confederacy. Confederacy was running around in Kentucky and it
was a problem with them confiscating this stuff. Basically, you know, moneys
for the war effort. In fact, one individual James lang Staff that was
his name, left letters saying he'd buried twenty thousand coins on his property.
There's another guy that claimed to burry eighty thousand. You go back and look
at this stuff. But basically soldiers reportedly stole payroll and hid it in a
cave in Cumberland Gap too. So I don't know, I find this stuff
fascinating. But yeah, if you if you dig up a button, shut
up right, just say, oh, they've been in the family whatever.
But once you get into that, I'm sure somebody will probably sue who the
heck knows, Maybe the family have who ever owned the land prior to that.
All right, six twenty six, let me give you just a rundown
here. That's just weird, man. All Right, Here we go two
days in a row. My whole word document is just acting weird. And
I even try to do an update on it. So I don't know if
that's a Microsoft thing or whatever's going on. It just doesn't like when I
scroll on the navigation pain all right, here we go. So um,
I love I love them the amount of people that are dhard over this and
have no interest, by the way, in living in this neighborhood. So
there is a new neighborhood going up in Gastonia called the seventeen seventy six Gastonia
it's the name of the neighborhood, and they just completed infrastructure. It's going
to have like forty some homes in it. They're going to start selling them
here in the next few months. And as part of the rules, and
this is interesting because the legislature here in North Carolina is actually they're looking at
some HOA bills. As part of the rules, each home will be required
to fly an American flag in front of their homes. It's basically being included
as an architectural element, which obviously are you know, the architectural elements in
covenants in hias are not an unusual thing. But it's the fact that it's
the American flag. They obviously want this visual North Carolina's most patriotic neighborhood any
of the rest, and that's what they're going to require, and that that
apparently is irritated people. In fact, w RL decided to do a story
about this complete non story. What is this guy's name? Doo? Could
do? Do do? Anyway? The representative said, each resident will be
given flags upon moving in and we'll have agreed to display in front of their
homes at all times. But it's not any political party. See, this
is where this is breaking down. They're claiming basically some sort of weird Republican
thing. All right, we'll get into more of this and much more coming
up. Thank you. Casey is one f w PTI in the Triad and
one on six one FM Talk in the Triangle. All right, good morning,
it is six thirty five. Oh, here we go with this.
All right, So, um, I don't know what was it. Just
a few weeks ago we had the on Jeopardy where none none of the contestants
apparently were familiar with the Lord's Prayer and that made the rounds. Uh what
is this? So there was some sort of well it's a sports related question,
you know. I could see all three people not being in on the
on the sports. Oh, they didn't know what Tommy John's surgery was,
okay, and Yankees fans are mad, okay. Job A Chamberlain used the
scar tissue from the elbow surgery name for this fellow pitcher as part of a
smiley faced tattoo. All right, I didn't know any of this set Ross,
You're you're a Yankees guy. Did you know any of this stuff?
Some weird Yankees lore that I'm not familiar. I mean, I had the
surgery. I didn't know about that though. Okay, all right, I
don't know why that's a news story New York Post, but apparently it's one
of the more popular ones. All right, So anyway back to this this
um community Gastonia or seventeen seventy six Gastonia, the forty three home neighborhood with
made order homes available for purchase over the next few months, will require as
part of the covenant, as an architectural element, that each home fly an
American flag in front of it. The residents will be provided the flags upon
moving in, and we'll have signed the h O a green to display in
front of their homes at all times. Uh. What does Brock far of
Fank Houser, who is the head of Great American Homes who's doing the development
stress the community is not associated with any political particular political party. So people
were straight up angry over this. I actually I saw the story and I
saw it first on Twitter, so I was seeing the Twitter comments under it,
and and people the amount of people who have no interest whatsoever in living
in this community will never purchase a home there, will never make an offer
on a home there, don't even live in. The guests don't. Who
are mad that forty three homeowners will sign on to a stack of HOA covenants
and one of which is the requirement for the flag. Yeah, I agree.
Somebody just said somebody, some idiot who doesn't want to live there,
will probably suit, probably right. You know. The irony is how many
HOA stories have we done where some guy goes to he puts a flag up,
and then the HWA is that you can't do that. You can't do
it then and they'll find somebody for it, and then eventually becomes a news
story because the homeowner takes to social media or whatever and the news shows up.
They're like, this guy says he's going to fly the flag, and
the HIA says the flag's either too big or it's not allowed to be displayed
out in front of the house. And then everyone takes sides. Here,
don't move into the neighborhood. It's really simple and by far not even the
dumbest ha thing that I think I've seen this week in the grand scheme of
things. I wonder how much the homes are doesn't say in the story here,
but in the article by w r L it's says it's quote causing quite
a stir, which is not inaccurate. But the amount of people that are
just really mad about this is baffling me. I saw that, I saw
I saw the headline and immediately thought it was just a you know, just
a reaction to the Hua stories. That initial reaction, I'm like, well,
that's probably what caused it, Like, we'll screw you guys. We're
gonna have a whole neighborhood full of flags. Yeah yeah, well and that
may be what that may be exactly. But also, um, you know
this company, uh this uh what is it? Great American Homes? They
want to sell homes, right, so if they got some angle on how
they think they can go ahead and sell these uh down around Charlotte, which
is where this is. Who cares right and don't buy a home? Man?
That used to be like a normal thing, though, I know on
my street on my block, there's tons of flags. Bill has one,
Marine has one down the street. Fong, she's a Vietnamese immigrant, right
flood Communism has a ginormous flag. Her son went in the Marine Corps.
One thing that was funny for me to learn is because you're even growing up
in Schenectady, we had tons of flags in the street. Right. That
tends to be like an American thing. Like over in the UK, you
don't fly your British flag like you do like Americans fly there there American flags.
No, they think it's weird. Yeah, it's um and it's kind
of a European thing because it depends. It depends where you are. I
will tell you though, Umu. In Colombian Ecuador, they had people had
flags everywhere and it was weird. Like each of the cabs or the ubers
that I was in, they would people. It was very popular. And
I'm assuming the passenger vehicles it's a normal thing where they'll stick they're very proud
of the flag and they'll have like a little mini flag on a suction cup
stuck to their windshield on the inside. And I think I just happened to
notice it because it's like every vehicle I got in had one of those had
one of their little flags, right, And I think that's a normal thing,
right if if your country doesn't suck, you should be proud of it
where you're from. And it used to be normal. Now it's like a
political thing, like or you know, it's now associated with one political party,
which is very telling. Yeah. We actually they would have two flags.
They'd have the so they'd have like the Columbian flag, and then they'd
have a flag of whatever their favorite soccer club is. So but you know
that's uh, that's that's you know, that's what's weird for us, right
because you know, soccer is not a huge deal, even though they have
the the big soccer the the Copada orro or whatever it's called going on all
around the US right now. I was watching that in the news. US
played Canada the other night or something, and they that takes one of the
one of the matches was in Charlotte and then Cincinnati and Dallas. Um.
So, I mean there is some popularity to it, but you know it's
just that's like religion, uh for folks in the in the countries where soccer
is very popular. Um. And I saw it over in in Europe with
people representing their soccer flags. But no, you're right, the Union jack
was not a thing. I seem to remember though over there. Trying to
think in France there was a lot of people with flags too. It's been
a while so yeah, no, no, no, in France they have
the flags and the silly Napoleon hats. Like I would say probably five out
of six people wear the Napoleon hat. Is that is that true? Is
that that's something? Pretty sure? Yeah? Yeah, how many times you've
been to France? Um? Personally? Yeah? Never? Oh okay,
all right, but you know you just you learned that somewhere and was at
my gut. My gut is telling me that's true. If you lived in
France, would you wear a Napoleon hat? I probably probably would, Okay,
all right? Making sure here? Yeah so um so, I guess
if you want to live in the neighborhood and you don't want to fly it,
who know, you know what, some idiot will probably somebody will absolutely
probably go in and when this thing's up, just out of sheer idiocy and
go vandalized flags, you mark my words. Somebody's gonna go and they're gonna
be all but hurt learning about this. Even though it's a story now and
it'll be next year before people actually move in, I could see somebody going
in there just to be a jerk about it. Let me ask you a
question, though, if you had to pick a neighborhood to go and like
trick or treat in or whatever, that sounds like a neighborhood, you'd go
to. Right. And also, um, and again I don't know what
the homes are gonna be. Um, I suspect that that's not going to
be a shoot him up neighborhood either, right, not a particularly violent place.
Dude, You're getting full candy bars in that neighborhood. You're getting full
candy bars. And I suspect those are not homes you want to break into.
If you're catching my drift, you know what I'm saying, Like,
um, Like they're gonna be ready for you, is what I'm implying.
So you see, if you see big flag display in front of a house
and you're a burglar, um, no, and you know what, here's
here's the other thing and this is this was like I don't know, it
wasn't required or anything. But especially when you get into like morde Key and
five points in that area inside the belt line there, especially like morde Key,
they didn't have to have flags. But it's like, I feel like
every single house like two years ago had the Black Lives Matter sign in front,
and also that the one that's got like the we where it's got all
the statements like we celebrate diversity here, we welcome blah. But you know
that one with all the different colors on there, and I swear on in
the one neighborhood, like every single home had it had those that the virtue
signal was on. So I frankly, I those are probably the same people
that are mad at this, which is deeply ironic to me. All Right,
so, um, this is getting a lot of buzz because there's a
few different stories. The Axios had a story quote this is the headline,
Old Yeller Biden's Private Fury, and basically they were talking about how he's got
a really quick temper and the way that he deals with his staff is decidedly
they say, it's quote decidedly different than how he is perceived or portrayed in
public. But I mean, am I the only one who remembers that video
of Hey fat in him screaming at that dude who's hesking questions And there's been
like several of those. But the fact that you have what people see as
more leftist outlets writing these stories and then New York Times calling the President out
for not recognizing his seventh grandchild, and and then it just all of a
sudden, a lot of people are theorizing that what's going on here is the
media has decided that they're going to take it upon themselves to get Biden to
drop out of the race. Let's see when is the optimal time for Biden
to drop out of the race? That's the headline from a recent piece in
the in the Hill. But yeah, no, just to share this collective
of stories here, But I thought it was interesting because I saw people who
were then like defending the president screaming and his subordinates as um, you know,
hey, he's just a guy who likes to get things done. He
expects competency. And I was just was a laughing my butt off at that.
At no point they speculate, And sadly, this is something that I
have I have witnessed personally in dealing with this within my own family, and
that is as people's faculties begin to fail them, one of the normal responses
is anger, and you know, and I understand it to some extent,
right, it has to be incredibly frustrating to not have the mental recall that
that you once did you ever been you ever been like tired, um,
and like you're just you're your your your brain's not turning on. It's irritating
you. Like you're irritating yourself because you're trying to do something to remember something,
and you just really So you take that and you multiply it by ten
with people who are undergoing a change where um, whether it is dementia,
Alzheimer's, or just you know, just not being able to perform in the
way that they did. I understand how people are going to be frustrated.
And also one of the side effects is angry outbursts, So you know,
for them to sit there and act like it's some coordinated marketing thing where he's
he's he's you know, jolly Grandpa with the ice cream only in public and
then just angry behind the scenes. The reality is there are multiple examples of
him snapping on people, people asking even asking like legitimate questions during campaign stops.
Or voicing criticisms saying hey this is I don't like how this is going.
What are you going to do about it? And then him losing his
crape You try to fight that one, dude. So the fact that you
have all of these these different media outlets that are now coming to this conclusion
is is bonkers. But you have to ask yourself why now and why all
of these collectives of stories. Is there a Democrat that is it has the
momentum that, um, you know, where they could just step in and
there would be a bit of a uniform support there. I'm not familiar with
who that is. You know, people say Gavin news Dowsome isn't declared candidate,
So I don't and I don't know how Gavin Newsom wins a national election.
I don't. I don't think that anyone coming out of California can sit
there and claim to have their crap together when people see what's going on in
California. Man, you know, for all the grief that they want to
give to santists, say well, look what's happening in Florida, Florida is
simply not dealing with a lot of the issues that California is in California,
did I Yeah, I did put it in the story. In California,
the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has forbidden cities within their jurisdiction. So California,
Oregon, Washington, Hawaii, and is it Arizona as well well?
Whatever, But basically on the West coast they've now said that they can't remove
homeless people from from you know, public I don't know. Did you see
that ruling? This was over something going on in organ right, and you
have this, you have a huge problem out there, and now you get
these activist courts that have decided, well, no, you can't have ordinance
against homeless people camping or sleeping outside. I'll give you in fact, let
me do this. We'll take a break, come back, I'll give you
the details on this. It is the case O Day radio program. Hang
on one oh six one FM Talk and ninety four five WPTI, two stations
driving the best end talk. This is case O Day and Carolina's Morning News.
All right, six fifty six here on the Kcoday radio program phone number
eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four oh oh. We have
a viral racist d video with allegations of deceptive editing. All right, so
we will um yeah, this one, Uh, this one feels a little
like the city bank one or city bike excuse me, which you know as
details started to emerge on that, obviously the narrative, the initial narrative looked
a bit shaky. But again I don't know. We'll um grab that here
and just uh in the next hour, Anthony, real quick, what's up?
Oh, I've never been to France, but don't you said they fun
their flags? That they are? They all white flags? I mean occasionally
that's the go too, obviously historically, but uh no, it looked to
be the multicolored one, so from what I remember, So yeah, and
then there was a lot of America because I because I went over to Normandy
into all that stuff over there, so obviously there's gonna be a concentration of
American flags in that general vicinity because they have the big cemetery there. But
um, yeah, I don't know. Maybe we'll send Ross on a field
trip and he can tell us, Okay, sir, go eat, somebody
gives some biguets or something. Be irritated. I pronounced it like dad,
don't care, all right? Coming up a pool incident with a Karen Karen
word being tossed around. We'll get the detail us on that in just a
few hanging all right, you wanted everybody get seven every seven. Oh wow.
Here on the case O Day Radio program eight eight eight nine three four
seven eight seven fours, we get things going in this hour. All right.
I mentioned this story and then I didn't get back to it just because
I was a little pressed for time. So let me hit it at first
before we get into the uh, the latest Karen's story of the day,
which may or may not include video that was deceptibly edited. I know that's
hard to believe. Uh does anybody? Does anybody believe any of these viral
videos? I mean, they must because obviously they go viral and people immediately
react, But like, how many times do you have to be bitten before
you're like, yeah, you know what, I'm a wait and see,
especially when I see like fervent support and you know, the outraged machine among
um like New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, those kinds of those
kinds of places, or on the other side where Fox News is all in.
People are sending me the video and I'm like, I don't know about
that. Right, and if they're sending it with the with the response,
hey do you see this? Fine? But it's just you know, between
that and uh, where we're gonna get with AI and where we are getting
with Aim. I don't even know how to hash through it all. I
really don't. Um. What was the one that was sent to me?
A bunch on vacation and it was a Biden one and it was pretty obvious
that somebody had edited it and they added sound to it. And because it
and I don't know, maybe it's because um Ross and I are sound people
that maybe we have an ear for that where you can you can just tell,
um, you can just tell when stuff is not part of the original
audio. But UM, i'll see if I'll see if I can find it,
I'll let you know which one I'm talking about. Anyway, back to
this, So the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, remember these as the folks
who, um, this is the district that is um based out of San
Francisco. It is it is moonbats for days on here. Uh. These
were the judges, including that judge in Hawaii who is who is part of
this court? Um, who decided they were going to step in on trump
stability to limit people coming in from in this case. Uh uh you know,
God quote unquote he was targeting Muslims. Remember all that insanity early on
when it is specific and it's probably one of the easiest to understand laws out
there that the president can dictate how that stuff is going to work. But
very simple. He can. He can limit travel from any country that he
chooses. He doesn't even need to tell you the reason. If you don't
like the lawn, then change it. But that's the law. And they
just decided they were going to just do whatever they wanted to do and just
kind of make it up as they went. Well, here you go again.
So Grant's Pass, Oregon, like many West Coast cities, has a
huge problem. There are homeless people all over the place and it has obviously
it's an aesthetics thing, it's um it's a law enforcement thing. You have
a lot of drug use that goes along with this. Sadly, you have
various crimes, and you have the inability of people to um basically utilize uh,
these publicly funded areas in in the way that they were expected to be
utilized. One of the one of the videos I did see is they have
um uh wheelchair accessible beach access uh in in California, maybe we have some
here in North Carolina. But the structures are these ramps that like jettison out
onto the beach and then they have like, uh, you know, a
little patio area on the end of them. And basically it allows people that
are in a wheelchair who want to go to the beach to get out to
essentially the water's edge and um and and do so in a way that allows
them to do it in their chair. Well, it also is a pretty
sweet little spot to set up your little homeless village. And so you have
all of these structures that they built out there where people have just decided,
well, that's my new house, that's my new yard, and the police
can't do anything or they choose not to do anything based on local ordinance.
Well, now you have this ruling that could hamper their ability to do anything
at all. In the Ninth Circuit, so the case was Grant's Pass and
a lawsuit was filed basically because the police were saying, hey, you can't
sit there and just decide that this park in the middle of town is your
new house. That's not what it's there for and so as part of the
lawsuit, they sued saying, well, we have nowhere else to go.
You can't do this. Well, the judges in the Ninth Circuit Court of
Appeals decision decided that grants pass and therefore likely any other community under this court's
jurisdiction cannot have ordinances against homeless people camping or sleeping outside in public areas because
it is a violation of the Eighth Amendment. Now, the Eighth Amendment,
just as a reminder, is a prohibition on excess of punishment, which you
know, this is not something that pops to mind when you start thinking about
what was intended by Then the fines for violating the ordinances also violate the Eighth
Amendment, the court ruled. So the act of removing them and then the
issuance of any fines is think about what a leap that is, because it's
not just about homelessness at that point. Basically, what you're saying is if
a government fine is issued to a person who does not meet a certain economic
threshold, it is illegal. You know, LA just decided to go with
cashless bail again, so we'll see how that works. But in this case,
it's an Eighth Amendment violation. Judge Rosalind Silver wrote the court's opinion,
declining to hear the case again, that the number of homeless people in grants
pass is higher than the available shelter beds. So they didn't even adjudicate just
the case. They issued an opinion on why they are not going to because
the lower court basically said they couldn't do it. But where they decided,
no, that's good enough, and here's our reasoning, and then they listed
the Eighth Amendment as the reasoning. There there are three conservative justice on the
Appeals Court who slammed the decision, arguing that the Eighth Amendment by citing it
has hamstrong local authorities to do anything about the homeless problem. The irony,
of course, is I mentioned the Ninth Circuit is in San Francisco, and
if you look out any window in the Federal courthouse there in San Francisco,
it is surrounded by homeless people. So these judges are are literally waiting through
this to get in there, and outside the windows of their courtrooms and their
offices is rampant drug addiction there is they don't even conceal narcotics dealing that's going
on outside of the building and severe mental health issues, which sadly go hand
in hand with homelessness. And so basically the point is you can't you can't
do anything about it unless you have another option for them, is what they're
saying. So if they want to remove homeless people, these cities will be
required to essentially create housing for them. So again another giant leap there where
somehow there is an obligation. You know, it's it's that housing as a
right, garbage. Everything is a human right. If you listen to Active
is housing, the guaranteed income, stuff, healthcare, all of it,
saying well, there is no other option. If there is no other option
in the form of some government funded housing, then you can't tell people they
can't camp in a in a in a public park, or in a public
area, in the street, on the beach, wherever it is. But
there is another option, right there, There is the option where people will
work to not be homeless. And I understand that's difficult, especially when you're
dealing with mental health or addiction issues, but you know that that somehow people
Yeah, I mean, if this is the case, um, I'm I'm
gonna go live in Yellowstone Man all that natural scenery around. Oh, that
would be amazing. Plus I could watch people go up and try to pet
animals that will murder them in two seconds because you know, they weigh as
much as a car. So you know, I said, of my porch,
watch that what's to stop me from, uh, you know, putting
a cabin right in the middle of that mess. I mean that's the logic
there, or you know, but getting one of those big outfitters tense and
just living out there in in nature. That's what the court's saying. And
imagine if everyone decided to do that. Imagine if or uh you know what,
uh Ross, I'm gonna you want to move the studios to right off
the Blue Ridge Parkway or maybe right on the beach over in Deare County and
the on some of the you know, the federal land there. I think
that's a great idea we could have. We have one right on the Blue
Ridge Parkway and then a beach house out there with no neighbors, right that
big white open era area. We can we can grab us some wild horses.
Oh, it'll be fun. Will rodeo out there every day. It's
gonna be amazing. That is that is literally the ruling that they just hand
it down. So if this if this garbage, this will I'm telling you
this is one of those issues. This is now is the time to figure
out a way to elevate this to the Supreme Court and get this handled,
because that is not what the Eighth Amendment is about, not in the least,
especially when you get into this stuff like tickets right where they're issuing tickets
and they want to decide that your your income will dictate whether they can even
even give you a ticket. Think about how that plays out. So if
if if you don't meet a certain threshold for money somehow any form of government
fine doesn't apply to you, Well, holy hell, if you're if you're
poor, speed man, do one hundred and twenty on I forty. I
mean, that's the logic there, all right. Eight eight eight nine three
four seven eight seven four The beach House of the mount Those are gonna be
amazing, absolutely amazing, because that's where you're at with that. And if
you think about it too, think of how mad the moonbats would be if
everyone just decided that we're gonna go do whatever the hell they want and build
a house over in uh, you know, one of the national parks or
something, or you know, some wildlife area. Oh, they lose their
damn minds. But according to what this court is arguing, the government's not
in a position to stop you from doing it. All right, we'll get
some we'll get some calls on that insanity. Um. Oh yeah, hold
on, let me go, let me grab actually, hang on, let's
just look to the clock here. It is a seven nineteen. We'll take
a break, come back more on this and the Colorado Karen Pool incident or
whatever it's actually being called. We'll get to that here in just a few
On the k c O Day radio program, Your Day Smarter one oh six
one FM talk and news Talk UPTI More with Casey starts now, uh CaCO
Day Radio program. Couple cancelations. I'm gonna be getting too here in short
order. Hold on, any might cancel bell? Ah, here we go,
excuse me, the taker bell. Yes, couple really racist things need
to get canceled. Apparently, water and cameras. So yeah, yeah,
if you're into water or cameras, bad news for you. Super racist.
So we'll get to that in just a moment. We grab some calls here.
Jake, what's up? Hey, good morning. I was out caught
me for many about four years ago, and they were camping out on the
Santa Anna river bed, all the holes and everything, and they used,
as they mentioned, to get them out like a legal breadon the public health
because sant Anna river bed was used as a part of the watershed. Now,
I can't imagine they have an apple amount of Orta bodies and all these
parts in Oregon, but you guess they got to be going to the bathroom
somewhere and that could steep into the water. Systrom, they could probably use
that a reason to extradite them. I well think, look, if once
this court is identified as some sort of Eighth Amendment violation, they're gonna have
to fit. They're gonna have to adjudicate that somehow. So it's a pretty
significant ruling in just in the sense that this is the opinion of the district
court, because it will motivate whatever city officials think of doing, because you
know, they don't want to implement something they think is not going to hold
up in court. So um, yeah, I'm with you in fact.
And thanks for the call there, sir. What was that I saw this
story? Yeah, here we go speaking about that a new report out says
half of the state of New York's beaches have unhealthy levels of feces and are
technically contaminated under state state guidelines. Half of New York's beaches contaminated with pop.
That's the New York Post headline. That's awful. But yeah, I
wonder what Californias are, man, because you're right, you gotta go somewhere,
and we saw what was happening in the streets of San fran keeping you
connected. This is ninety four five WUFTI and the Triad and one six one
FM Talk and the Triangle. All right, good morning, the Ideas seven
thirty five coming up on the show in thirty minutes. So kicking off,
I re number three. Senator Ted Buddles join us. There is a lot
of meat on that bone. We haven't talked to him here in a few
months, so it's been I don't if it's been a few months. Been
a while though. We didn't talk to him at all last month, did
we And that was that was vacation schedule of all sorts of stuff. So
we got we got all the all sorts of things to get into with the
Senator. So that's coming up. Like I said, I in thirty minutes.
Colright, couple of things real quick, and then we'll get back into
some phone calls. Are one. The Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals or excuse
me, Eighth Circuit, Ninth Circuit, excuse me, is having to do
with the Eighth Amendment has ruled against cities having the ability to remove homeless people
unless they can provide shelter for them. So and they're saying it's an Eighth
Amendment violation. They're also saying that issuing punishments involving finds to somebody who is
homeless also runs a foul of the Eighth Amendment. So with that logic,
I guess if you want to go go set up shops somewhere on public property,
you can just go ahead and do it and there's nothing they can do
about it. That's sounds like a recipe for disaster, but also means amazing
new mountain and beach studios for the show, a big, big spread over
on the National Seashore and one up on the Blue Rich Parkway. It'll be
amazing. Absolutely. I mean, granted, I would like to think that
this, you know, since we're not under the Ninth Circuit. That might
be something that judges who are not trying to be activists might rule the other
way, and then maybe it goes up to the Supreme Court. But for
now, if you're a city who wants to do this and you're not providing
the shelter, it sounds like your hands are tied, which is just crazy
to me. Also a video going back to the fourth of July, which
shows an evil, horrible, racist white woman, according to the way that
it's headlined in many of the stories, rating a poor innocent in this case
Hispanic family for having a giant pool party at a community pool at a housing
if its apartments or the departments, condos or just how well whatever. So
it's a pool, it's a community pool in neighborhood pool that's you know,
that the residents are supposed to be able to use, and then there is
a certain number of guests that they can bring with them. There's a video,
and in the video it shows her berating them and at one point she
says, you're having a Mexican pool party, or a Mexican party in a
pool. And then there's a clip, I mean, there's a bunch of
clips in this. She also refers to whoever she's arguing with with the camera
as trash and at one pool, and then she refers to them as low
class. All right, So, I mean that's the gist of it.
However, and then the video goes viral and then of course they're docxing her
and all of that, saying she's a big fat racist. So in an
interview, she said the video is deceptively edited, and she says that her
responses, she doesn't deny that's what she said, but her responses were because
they were screaming things at her and U and referring to her as a as
a white woman, and you know, they were making racist comments or or
or race based comments as well, and they had they were having a party
that squarely violated the rules around guests numbers, making the pool basically inaccessible to
most of the other residents there. Um let's see. Yeah. So,
Featherman told The Daily Mail she was criticized by the group first after complaining they
were breaking the complex as rules because the residents had too many guests at the
pool, but says, obviously they were referring to her as white b word,
and just so happened none. None of that seemed to make the video.
So again when you see this stuff now, and by the way,
that's her side of the story. But it's clear the video is clipped right,
it doesn't include the entire encounter, as we have seen, is the
case with these and she claims at one point one of the women at the
party pulled her hair so forcefully that the woman's artificial nail broke off, and
that of course is not in the video. Police, by the way,
we're called but didn't do anything to anybody. Yeah, let's see here.
Thordi has responded to the incident, but no criminal charges were filed. So
if you did see that story, and I saw in a few places the
there's apparently more to it, and it wasn't being included in some of the
articles that were out there. By the way, how did I miss it?
The home run derby was last night? I did not even know that.
That is how little I pay attention to the Major League All Star Games
since going back to the strike era. Manum and uh what was and what
was the other thing, uh that bud Selig did under his tenure? I
don't know it was. There was a couple incidents where I'm just iround done
with that and I like baseball, but I don't care about All Star Week,
not at all. Although Ross, you're gonna start paying attention to baseball
now, right this is when you? Uh, I mean, I guess,
yeah, I haven't looked at the standings. I don''t know where the
Yankees are right now. They just had the draft too, that's the other
thing. Nobody although I did see the Twins there. So basically they said
there was five big time game changing players in the draft, and the Twins
had the fifth pick and they took that the kid out of Wilmer, he
said, at Wilmington or near Wilmington here in North Carolina. It looks like
a stud. So, um, we'll see how that goes. So generally
they'll develop him in their farm system. He'll get in, he'll be really
good, and then for no reason whatsoever, we'll just trade him away.
So that's that's how we roll pretty consistently. All right. Back to the
phones, here we go, Bob, what's up? Oh, I don't
know. I was just thinking that if it's if, if there's a ruling
that it's okay to have home us on federal property. I guess it's federal
property since it's in front of the courthouse. They said they had to wade
through that. Yeah. So so maybe if you have to entice them to
get a new homage, Uh, maybe give him a ninety prescription for a
nine a supply of marijuana that could be filled in Washington, DC. Give
him a nice little tent and a bus ticket, and let him camp out
on the White House lawn. And yeah, luckily, sir, you don't
need a prescription. In DC. They got they have like dispensaries everywhere you
just go in and buy uh marijuana. Uh you know, I don't get
them a couping. Yeah, they get a couping boy the I adam for
that. Who've never heard of Ron White as who was crazy to me?
So but whatever. But if they try to move him, then, if
they try to move them off the White House lawn or out from in front
of the Vice President's house, then uh, wouldn't that be a violation of
an equal protection clause if they them more than the check us? Well no,
because literally, you know, there is a judicial standard where you can
curtail rights under the Amendments. Um. Uh, you know they have to
be reasonable and they have to be limited. I camemer what the term is.
So they would make a claim that it's a safety issue in that case,
and the double standard would persist. But there's not a safety issue where
they are mail apparently not apparently. Uh you know all over in Grant's Pass,
Oregon, just littering all over the town and uh, you know,
camping and drug use and and literal in San Francisco, drug dealing. That's
visible. Everyone sees that it's going on. Apparently that's fine. So yep,
yep, yeah, yeah, well that's it. You know, it
keeps us in business, that is full sure? All right, real quick,
Ted, what's up? Yeah. My thoughts on this was the castless
bail out there in Los Angeles and the homeless people bought out there. You
can't do anything with them. I mean, there's not enough jail. Bad
The judges cannot put somebody in jail if there's not a bed for him,
so you can't lock them up. Yeah. I don't even think the intent
was to lock him up. The intent was to simply enforce the rules against
literally camping in public in France pass Organ. Yeah, you can't enforce a
rule if you can't punish them. Yeah, well you can't find them.
You can't find them. And if you if you don't have housing for him,
you can't move them. That's what the judges said, so correct,
you can't find him. I think you can't get blood out of a rock.
You know what I mean. I'm gonna have. I just know I'm
gonna have a sweet beach house, sir. It's gonna be awesome. So
oh, I had one way to a hurricane. Get well, you know,
since I won't have to pay for the land, it'll be fine.
So you know what, I'd be great. Gave some money, all right,
cool? Cool, Thank you appreciate it. Yep, yep, yep.
Yeah that'll that'll. I mean you gotta pay for obviously, you know
the construction supplies. But if you don't pay for the house, uh,
more power to me, all right. Seven forty six race stag from the
Weather Channel. No hurricanes. Uh we'll talk about yet. Um, but
you know the season is soon upon us. So what do we got today?
Not much. Our service did put a statement out on the Patchee Fogg
that in some spots it was pretty thick. So no advisory, but more
of advisory. Just take it easy for run into that thicker fog, especially
around the Triangle this morning. Other than that, most of us in real
good shape the next few days, but getting hotter and starting to see the
humidity creep up again. As it's actually pretty comfortable this morning in the mountains,
Casey, where we talked about yesterday, you'd love to be. There
are some low in mid fifties and western parts of the state right now,
some of that cooler airs trying to bleed east not having much luck. But
the humidity is lower, near ninety today, close to ninety maybe above tomorrow,
especially for the Triangle with lots of sunshine. And I think Thursday will
get another warm day with the humidity is starting to creep up and or at
least a load of mid nineties for Thursday, Friday and Saturday, maybe even
starting to see in the Triangle, especially some upper nineties with a showers thunderstorm
chants coming in. So the hazy, lazy, crazy days of summer here
and for the upcoming weekend and late in the week increased humidity and increasing temperatures.
All right, thank you, serve'll talking and I'll appreciate it, yep.
And then we've come back. Like I said, we've got a couple
couple of things need to canceling, not the big just you know, water
and cameras because super racist. And that's according to New York Times. So
we'll get into that much more coming up. K c O Day Radio program
show. After the show is on the iHeartRadio app. Searchs k c O
Day for the podcast on the iHeart radio app. All right, good morning,
seven fifty two. I say fifty because fifty cents has declared Los Angeles
quote finished, Yeah, it's over apparently. And why well I mentioned it
earlier, the policy that the city which they tried and then they got rid
of, and I tried a version of this during COVID, and now they
want to make it the new law of the land is here we go.
A Spirit Court judge issued an order in late May after several plaintiffs followed a
class action laws who claiming that they suffer negative consequences because they could not afford
bail the city. The city has reinstated now a zero bail policy. The
sheriff's Spartan will no longer detain people for crimes such as theph shoplifting, drug
use, vandalism, battery, and a whole host of other non serious,
non violent crimes that affect quality of life, and people will be released immediately
and not have to pay any bail before their arraignment for most others. Obviously
there's exceptions for things, you know, for murder and a couple other higher
crimes, but you know the stuff that could, especially the vandalism stuff,
uh just absolutely rampant, and then the theft stuff. I mean, all
you gotta do is look to the viral videos that people cleaning out stores.
So if that's the direction they're going, fitties probably correct. So a certain
amount of irony there because how many times was he arrested back in the day,
Right, wasn't his It wasn't that the whole thing, Like he's been
shot a bunch and he was he was a gang banger and all that stuff.
Am I remembering that correctly? I don't remember his origin story, but
I soon remember that being an element of it. You know, he was
like shot nine times, Yeah, it was it was. I remember hearing
that number on my holy crap man goodness, so uh yeah, even he's
not having it. So it is interesting though, right, It's kind of
like, um, who was the who was He's on I see him on
Twitter all the time, former basketball player, who was like people should be
able to do whatever they want. And then like people were coming into his
neighborhood and doing stuff, and he was then tweeting out how the police need
to get over here and do something. I think it was Steph Curry.
No, no, no, no Curries thing was he was. He was
they were avocating some affordable housing next to his giant mansion and he went to
the city council and was like, nah, you can't do this, No
no, no no. It was there some guys based out of la And
I remember it was one of those side by side tweets where he's just like,
yo, people have a right to do whatever they want. And then
they're you know, they're in there. It was during it you know what
it was. It was during the twenty twenty all the George Floyd stuff,
That's what it was. And then like they came through his neighborhood and then
he was like, why are the police not doing anything? Yeah, I
remember I think he had a job at ESPN or something. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, I can't remember his but yeah. So yeah, it is
interesting how people stop process has change, all right? So um oh yeah,
I was gonna have So what is the because you have a camera?
Um, you guys have the camera, the outside camera. You're he is
it a ring camera that you guys? Okay, well well then maybe you're
not a big fat racist because if you've got a ring camera, bad news
for you. Yeah. The folks over at Wired, which I thought was
a magazine where they were just you know, looking at tech stuff and telling
you whether it does what it says it's supposed to do, um, have
have written a hit piece here. Uh. Basically, they were looking at
various doorbelt cameras and security cameras and decided to then make an issue over the
ring doorbells, saying that even though the tech is good and the cost is
fine, that the editors are quote not able to recommend ring cameras because of
race profiling. And it comes down to a feature that the ring doorbell cameras
have, which is called forward to police feature. So the forward to police
feature is basically just is part of the software that goes with it where if
there's something on your camera, you know, somebody lurking around outside or whatever,
and you want to get that video over to the police. You can
literally do it. I don't have a Ring doorbell, so I don't know
exactly how it's integrated, but it basically makes it really easy for you to
forward this stuff to law enforcement, which kind of makes sense, right,
That's why you got the cameras out there keeping an eye on stuff. You
see something that's you see something, say something, right, Well, that
feature is allowing homeowners. I'm gonna read their quote from Adrian sou wrote the
article allowing homeowners to act as vigil anties. Even Ring's biggest competitor, next
Door, remove the forward to police feature back in twenty twenty. That's when
they originally raised distinct too on this stuff, and Ring told him to pounce
sand because well, that's what their customers want. Allowed users to forward their
own safety post a local law enforce But if a crime has been committed,
law enforcements should obtain a warrant to access civilian video footage. Yes they should
if the civilian doesn't want to give them the footage, but if they want
to and it's your system. The article goes on and say, he's the
disability to forward so easily increases the possibility of racial profiling and vigilante activities.
It's also dumb. So I don't know. Now I want to ring camera.
I gotta be honest with you, because that sounds like a feature that
would be useful from time to time. Anyway, Senator Ted Bud joins us.
Next hang on. All right, good morning everybody, and happy Tuesday,
our number three here at eight oh seven pc O Day Radio program.
It's been a little while since we've had an opportunity, just scheduling and all
that stuff to chat with Senator Ted Bud. We'll write that now, because
he joins us, good morning to you, Senator. What's going on?
Good morning, Casey. Great to be with you. Yeah, absolutely,
m I just I want to dive into something we were actually getting into just
or just about to get into, and we'll use this as the lead in.
I was reading this morning that one of your colleagues, I guess in
this couse in this case over on the house side, is suggesting that,
um, well, let me ask you this where I get into that.
Do you think the cocaine White House story do you think that that's a that's
a big deal. Oh? Absolutely, And they're literally sweeping this under the
rug. Saying, well, we can't you find out who that is.
I mean, this is a place with security cameras and logs, and I
know exactly what phone box they're talking about. I've seen that phone box.
This is This is ridiculous, and they are trying to make a nothing burger
out of us something and I think it's completely irresponsible and the American people deserve
an answer. Um, what's it like if you go to the White House.
I'm assuming you probably don't get invited these days, but when Trump was
there, I'm assuming he went to the White House. So what's that process
like for an elected official, let alone a staff member. Oh, I
mean it starts with us. You know, we show our IDs, we
we you know, we have to make sure we go through the right entrance,
and they smell tests for your car. They circle your car with dogs
and they're looking underneath for bombs. And then you go in. You park
in a certain place, and you go through multiple levels of security, and
you sign in, you put your phone in a box, and then you
wait in a room and you meet with the president later. So it's it's
all very controlled and they certainly should have certainly have an answer for who you
know, they could always bring the people back in and question them. Heck,
they could even drug test them if they wanted to. But I love
the way John Kennedy, the Senator from Louisiana, said it. He said,
if if that the White House was as bad as Joe Biden's White House,
he would give his staff from cocaine two. But yeah, I think
it's despicable. The American people need an answer. But again, it's a
bad White House and it shows you the culture that Joe Biden has there.
It wasn't John Pierre was in his name escaped? Whoever the deputy Press secretary
is who said that basically he couldn't even speak of the issue because of the
Hatch Act. Is that how you understand the Hatch Well, they certainly expand
and narrow that to suit their liking, but that's completely irrelevant right now,
and it's the way to sidestep an issue that's very uncomfortable, not just for
the White House but for the Biden family as well. Um. Yeah,
and then they claimed the Biden family wasn't wasn't there and then they mentioned something
like hard passes. So what's the difference between what you go through versus somebody
who has one of these quote unquote hard passes. Is that I don't know
if that is. Yeah, maybe that's for the family or something. I
don't know what that is. That's new to me. Okay, all right,
I took the vibe I got it's for the family, and it's for
like upper echel on staff members basically just to make things easier because they're uh,
you know, they're on the trusted list or whatever. And I don't
know that they need cocaine. Did you see the Axeos article about Joe Biden
when he's dealing with staff in private. Oh my goodness, Yeah, yeah,
you don't. You shouldn't treat people that way. I mean, that's
completely wrong. We operate. Look, our names may be on the ballot,
you know, Ted budd for me and whoever the candidate is. But
I'll tell you what. We operate as a team. There are you know,
whether you're a House member or whether he or in the presidential administration or
you're in the Senate, we operate as a teams. And you've got to
treat each other with mutual respect. Um. You know, there's there's a
few of your colleagues too that are kind of known known for that, and
I think they put a list out at one time basically trying to maybe shame
them a little, whether it's throwing throwing stuff or what was the fork incident
with klobishar Um. Yeah, yeah, they interesting, Like when you meet
these folks that may be one way in some kind of another way behind closed
doors, but ultimate goal is to have true integrity and that's to be the
same person behind closed doors that you are out in public. And that's the
goal. Look, none of us are perfect, but again, you want
to make sure you operate as a team. This is this is in the
private sector too. I mean, if you're running, if you're in if
you're in radio, you're in talk radio, you've got a team as well.
If you've got a small business out there, you've got to treat people
around you, whether it's your own team or whether it's your customers, you've
got to treat them with mutual respect. And that's not the way this White
House is operating. One of your other colleagues, Lindsay Graham, suggested one
of the ways to deal with the Ukraine issue is letting them into NATO,
which obviously comes along with obligations for other NATO members, including us. What
does that to say, is he just kind of the loan dude on this.
I don't understand it. What are your thoughts on that? Well,
he's certainly the most public on it. But that's scary because if you look
at Article five of the NATO articles, and again they're in Vilnius right this
week talking about these things. You know, maybe that's just a trial balloon.
But I think that's a bad idea because according to Article five, if
one member is attacked, that's like all members are attacked and we go to
war on the members behalf. They are in the middle of a conflict,
in the middle of a war, and we certainly want to want to have
to bring them into fast tract them in the NATO, and then implement Article
five immediately, which means we're all at war with Russia. That's not what
we want. Let's get let's bring this issue to an end. Let's bring
this conflict to an end. Hopefully you've Kraine will win. H Look,
we want to keep doing what we're doing and supporting them as we are.
Um. I look, this is a it's a bad neighborhood over there.
Uh, you got to I want to support them, but I want to
do it cautiously and with accountability. Uh, and so you really have to
balance this. Um. And again I think we have inspectors general on the
ground watching where these munitions are going. It actually provides us a test for
some of our equipment if there was a war on the in the Pacific.
So I think there are some opportunity for us here. But again, your
question was about NATO. I do not believe that we need to have a
discussion right now about bringing Ukraine into NATO. I mean, let's face it,
this is a proxy war. Um. This is and it's not new
in the way that the US has done things in the past. Some would
say it's a It's a much better strategy obviously than engaging ourselves. But to
what end? I mean, now we're arguing over cluster bombs h and specifically
what was it one one five five millimeter which the President said in an interview
on CNN we don't have a bunch of and everyone freaked out over there.
So, I mean, what is the right path? According to Senator bud
Well, I think we need to strengthen them. I think we need to
do it with accountability. Look, I voted for a bill that was led
by Josh Hawley to have one inspector general. I think there's twenty thirty or
maybe even more inspectors general. So it's very disconnected, fragmented information that we're
getting over there. I do want Ukraine to be successful. Are they perfect?
No, But if you look at what Russia's ultimate aims are, it's
to rebuild the USSR. Now, if you remember, I know you and
I've talked about this at certain times. When I met my wife, I
was on a mission trip, it was in the USSR, and it began
to unravel that very week in nineteen ninety one. So I've seen the beginning
of this. Putin is trying to reverse that and re establish the old Soviet
Union. That means he goes west, he goes halfway into Poland, he
takes over the eastern part of Germany, and so the real threat to the
Baltics. So I think we need to support Ukraine because of Putin's larger ends,
and it's a threat to Western Europe and ultimately the whole world. So
you want to keep him contained, and I think the way we do that
is through strengthening through strengthening Ukraine right now, do we want to go to
Warding We want to some trips, absolutely not, do we want to bring
them into into NATO. Look, I think we need to focus on getting
Sweden in right now. Finland's already end. But I just think we get
to be very very cautious about you know, because of the Article five per
vision in NATO, we don't want to bring Ukraine in. Let's let's head
east for a moment, over to China. I was reading an update over
the weekend about two incidents, one having to do with Eric Swalwell and Fang
Fangs as she's referred to, and also what was it Diane Feinstein who had
the individual working in her office and specifically their work on behalf of China where
she was basically attempting to ensnare high level politicians out in California and the guy
in Feinstein's office was providing information. Both of these individuals received a tactical briefings,
and the newer information basically shows the sharp divide between what they referred to
as the seventh floor over at the FBI and them wanting to tell these lawmakers
what was going on versus others in the FBI who wanted to know flesh this
thing out and you know, figure out totally what we're dealing with and if
there was any any corruption and or big problems, and it's it speaks,
Senator to more distrust within the FBI for many folks, including mysel So I
know China is kind of a hot issue for you. So talk to me
about what you know about that and why these tactical briefings were used basically to
stop these investigations, and how do we hold people accountable for that. We
got to treat Chinese. Let's make sure we're really clear here. This is
not against the Chinese people that are here in the US, but this is
against the Chinese Communist Party which is attempting to operate in the US. And
you've given a couple of examples of that. There are a threat to American
interests to both at home and abroad, and we need to treat the Chinese
Communist Party like the adversary that they are. You've got to root it out,
whether it's whether it's in our technology, whether it's in our universities,
whether they're stealing intellectual property, whether they are in our political offices. So
we have to be vigilant there and we need to make sure that the DOJ
is doing their job and that we're as elected officials, that we're doing our
job in the Senate and then again over on the outside, and you can't
be compromised. You got to remember why the people sent us here, and
that's to defend in America, and that's to operate in their best interest.
And obviously we see a couple of offices that you've given the example of that
haven't done that. So again back to vigilance, back to remembering who sent
us there and what our purposes as elected officials. How common is this?
How common is where you have actors on behalf of foreign entities that try to,
you know, side up with people like you. I'm going to say
it's, first of all, two my knowledge does not happen, But again
we have to be very vigilant, and I think that when it does happen,
it does make the news, and rightfully so, I think people need
to know about it. And I think that puts all of us on our
toes to make sure that we're watching, to make sure that those in our
staff levels are operating on behalf of what this office is here for, and
that's for us, It's for the people of North Carolina. And again,
you know, I've just recently sent a letter to the DOJ asking about these
overseas Chinese surveillance centers, perhaps even one in Charlotte. Let's take a look
at this and let's see what's going on, making sure that the DOJ is
doing their job. Because remember, as elected officials, on Article one at
a constitution, we're supposed to hold Article two, that's the president. Make
sure we're holding him accountable in his administration. If the DOJ at the fbist
not doing our job, not doing their job, it's our job as the
House and the Senate to make sure that they are. So, thank goodness,
we've actually got a Republican House which is doing it if we had a
majority. Unfortunately it's led by Chuck Schumer. But if we had a majority
here in the Senate, we'd be having those hearings on this side too,
But they control what those hearings are. And as soon as we win the
majority, we'll begin holding the Biden administration accountable. And hopefully they wanted to
be an administration in twenty twenty four, well, let's be clear, because
yeah, I'm sorry to cut you off there. Clear because I don't think
people realize what these overseas Chinese service centers are because it sounds like, you
know, it sounds like embassy kind of stuff, but in reality, like
there's like foreign police forces that are accused of operating out of there, which
is way outside the balance of what is wout and to your point that there
is potentially one in Charlotte is extremely troubling. So what exactly are these things?
These centers? Well, I've sent a letter asking for five questions.
Basically I won't read them all, but it says, hey, there's any
of it? There were seven that we know of. Are they engaged in
illegal activity? And what is that activity? What steps is the DOJ taking
in relation to them? Are these operating on behalf of the People's Republic of
China? And then what are you again? Have you identified every single one
in the US? Are there others? And so I'm asking most of making
sure that the DOJ and the FBI is actually doing their job because I'm of
the belief that that there are good people in the DOJ, the FBI,
and there's some questionable folks at the top that we really need to hold accountable.
But thank goodness that the House is doing that right now. But the
other men and women that are serving, that came there for good reasons,
that believe in our country, to believe in the Constitution, are there to
serve the people United States. I want to make sure they're doing their job
when it comes to checking up on the PRC and any operations they're having here
in the US. I mean, that's all good and well, But like
in the case of the the one whistleblower guy, um, you know you
got all that, you got these indictments. Now, um you know who's
quote unquote missing this uh energy consultant, And you know they're going full boar
against this dude. And some people say, well, you know, that's
pretty convenient since he seems to have a lot of information. So is like
the totality of that overblown? Do you think this guy didn't hihilate the laws
surrounding what was he selling Iranian oil and other things? I mean, where
where can he be? Both? And will will we ever get answers out
of him? So I think, one again, it's not ever blown.
When I'm when I'm referring to people's concern about this and coming, you know,
the Biden administration coming down on whistleblowers. So I've signed onto legislation that
actually protects these whistle blowers and make sure they're not punished by the Biden administration,
especially as they move towards twenty twenty four reelection campaign. We want,
I think that there may try to suppress information. We want to make sure
that doesn't happen. Make sure these people aren't punished and don't come up missing
somehow and aren't intimidated, because again, these are these are tough times,
and we've got to make sure that we that the truth comes out. And
thank goodness again for the US House and the hearings that the Republicans are having
over there. All right, last two minutes, obviously, Spring Court of
the news. You would agree that there is an effort to delegitimize the Supreme
Court in among media and many political elites. Would you not? Oh,
absolutely, this is completely sour grapes because we were six three right now,
we're constitutionally appointed. People overwhelmingly agree with the decisions, you know, whether
it's on student debt, whether it's on affirmative action. These are good decisions
for America, and these are contemporary decisions that really fit country. I think
they're instep with the American people. And again, this is about the left
and their friends in the media radicalizing their influence and saying that they're trying to
pick out you know, this person went on a hunting trip or that.
That's all legitimate. And this Supreme Court can handle their own internal ethics cases.
John Roberts can handle that as the Chief Justice. And again, they
are not an extension of Congress. They are a third branch and they should
be able to hold themselves accountable. Well, but they also were never able
to point out who leaked the draft memo less than a minute. So what
are your thoughts on that. Can they hold people accountable? They couldn't hold
that person accountable? Well, I think you know, that's probably a question
on the left that they were trying to take advantage of getting out in front
of the adopts decision. But again, you know, they tend to they
tend to operate at their own convenience when it comes to what they're upset about,
and they certainly weren't upset about the fact of the leak. Now,
they didn't like the doob decision, but was it leaked by the left?
Um, it's likely, so we don't know that. Again to the one
name of proven Senator time flies. Gotta go appreciate the time. We'll talk
soon. Okay, thanks, all right, there you go, Senator at
Ted Bud joining us here on the Casey O Day Radio program. Take a
break, get news and oh yeah, I gotta get the water story.
Hold on, that's next. This is one oh six one FM Talk in
the Triangle and news Talk N four five WPTI and the Triad. Oh so,
apparently the woman freaking out on the plane about lizard people nobody can find
her. Hmm, interesting, Rossbert, you're saying horrible things about the lizard
people off the air? Was that was that you or you're you're you're cool
with the lizard people the reptilians because this chick got disappeared or she just doesn't
want to be found. But you know, conspiracy obviously has disappeared. So
um, yeah, I don't know, man, that old stories crazy.
Plus then you see the video of the dude who was you know, the
dude in the hoodie that she thought was the lizard person, and you know
he's rocking the faced hats and all the Masonic symbols and stuff. But he
was also detailing a kind I think I mentioned this yesterday. He was detailing
a conversation they had where he was trying to answer questions about the simil on
his sweatshirt, and then she just launched into the reptilian stuff. And I
don't know how it escalated from there, but eventually it's her screaming at the
front of the aircraft. Sou But yeah, now they want to track her
down an interviewer, I guess, and it ain't happening, Nope, just
people posting screenshots of her with the word would. So that's what you get
on the Twitter, all right, So let's get into this real quick.
We got to cancel look cancelation at our bill out there this time apparently water.
I don't know. Now I'm a little confused because the New York Times
piece racial disparities and drowning deaths have worsened, all right, And in the
article, well this is weird. In the article they say the leading cause
of death for children ages one to four is drowning. I thought it was
guns, where we told it was guns, but they included like nineteen year
old gang bangers and that and stuff. So, but for one to four
year olds, the CDC says the leading cause of death is drowning, and
that number has been coming down over the last thirty years. However, the
New York Times is very concerned because they say that they're making a comeback that
quote target racial group. How does the tragedy of a drowning target a racial
group unless somebody is literally drowning them, you know, like murder style.
Here we go. Black children between ages five and nine are two and a
half times more likely to drown in swimming pools than white children, and those
between ages ten and fourteen are three and a half times more likely to drown.
Okay, but what see, this is what kills So they just throw
the numbers out and they're like, well, obviously, because there is a
disparity there, it must be racism. I does socioeconomic playing into this at
all? I mean, I don't know, did you how many of you
had swimming lessons as a kid. I don't remember if I took swimming lessons.
I think maybe I did. Ross Did you do swimming lessons when you
were a kid. My dad threw me in the pool and you survive.
So addition made it should accomplished. Look at that. Did he tell you
I was gonna do it? Or just you just one day he's like,
hey, come over here and then bass video. Yeah I don't actually recall,
I just remember kind of happened. Oh okay, all right. So
yeah, so apparently we got the water which is quote targeting racial groups and
you can't send your ring doorbell footage or you're some kind of profiler. By
the way, there's an artis in that article too. They also mentioned,
um there this is in the Wired article. They say there's no evidence that
more video surveillance footage keeps community safer. Really is there no evidence? So
if there is no evidence that security cameras work, why do we why do
we have so many security cameras? And and also why why does the government
have so many security cameras? Right? You ever see the number of cameras
that are around like the city of London, they were just like it was,
it's like more than there is people. Man, there isn't an inch
of public property in London that doesn't have cameras in it. You don't even
bring up China. Wow. Yeah, but yeah, that's it. That's
for far that's for far more into various purposes, right there. Man,
Holy cow, yeah, I would I mean, there's no evidence that video
surveillance. Then if there If there's no, then why in every heist movie,
what's the first thing that they do? What's the first what's the first
thing in any No? No, I know, you hack into the cameras
and you put up like a like a like a video that's not actually the
video, right right, Yeah, So it's like, ah, there's the
vault, but it's actually a prerecorded video of the vault. So you can
go into the vault. Oh but how would you know? How would you
know the difference between the two. I'll probably like you gotta look at the
floor. Oh okay, maybe maybe, um if there's a slight difference there,
perhaps a logo of some sort. Yeah. No, the first thing
you do is you go for the video. Okay, what the hell are
you talking about here? I don't I don't even I don't even need your
whatever, your BS study that you don't even cite in your article is here.
Let me let me help you with this. How many times have you
seen a criminal convicted largely due to the fact that they were able to be
identified from surveillance camera a lot. Right, that's a thing that happens regularly.
So if that person who is convicted is somebody who goes around robbing stuff
but gets conveyed diet, and let's say it gets ten years in prison,
you're telling me that over the course of that ten years, there's no possibility
that they would have robbed something else had they not been caught, Because it
sure sounds like that video camera kept a community safer a bunch of absolute morons
man. And of course, uh, you know, it's it's about racial
How is it about racial profiling? Do you get to select the person that
comes over to, uh, to attempt to rob your home? Right?
You go, I you know, hey, Bob, it's uh's your guys
turning to get robbed? Uh? What do you want? Do you want
a white guy? Yeah? This is why we make fun. This is
why I would always make fun of those commercials too, Right, the um
the white the white guy robbery ring right in every one of the surveillance camera
commercials. Right, it's like, what's the um? What's the company based
out of Charlotte? I don't know why the names escaping me. But like
it was a running every single commercial. Any time they showed somebody who was,
you know, attempting to commit it, they had to have the you
know, the whitest dude they could find, the white guy burglary ring.
That's what we were calling it on the show. But you know it only
it works because you're casting for a commercial. In real life, you don't
get to pick who robs your well. When I was a kid, our
house was broken into and that was a white dude. We didn't select him,
but it just happened to be the case. Happened to be the case.
My buddy's house got broken into and it was two hispanic guys. Again,
he didn't select it. And oh, by the way, do you
know how they do? You know how they tracked down who the dudes were
who broke into his house because he had security cameras, which one of which
actually caught the vehicle that they use, and they were able to extract the
whose vehicle it was. I can't remember if it caught part of the plate
or there was something identifiable on it, but yeah, that's how it worked,
man. Pretty crazy stuff. So, yeah, just more garbage stupidity
from the media, media outlet that is supposed to be about one thing,
in this case just gadgets right, that's right, You're wired is about technology,
and of course they got to turn it into a social justice issue rather
than just telling you, hey, this is a good camera for the money,
or it's not, or the software works great, or it's buggy,
or you know, the things that people actually won. It's like every publication
has become their own version of Kataku, the video game site that is really
about video games. Well at least you know whether they're good or none.
All right, let's grab race stage from the weather channel here eight forty five,
and boy, sucks to be in Vermont today. I was just reading
about that man. Yeah, flooding that rivaled Irene just a few years back,
and catastrophic flooding there and even at the parts of New York State and
the Hudson Valley on Sunday had heavy rain and flooding washed roads away and one
fatality there. So they've had some significant rain events and it looks like the
rain starting to taper off. We've been lucky. Parts of the state actually
have deficits. We're not doing too terrible, and no rain in the forecast
next few days. Actually beautiful morning. There is any leftover cloud or patchy
fog should be going away shortly as we're gonna run up the upper eighties.
Somebody could in ninety and then the heat minity you start to build tomorrow.
Another decent night tonight as we're seeing this morning, and then tomorrow near ninety
degrees and low maybe mid nineties for late week with shower thundershower threats going up
and more the same for the weekend, maybe even hotter, so could get
some of the hotter days and more humid days we've had this summer as we
get into the weekend. Casey, that's the way it looks right now,
and you know it goes it gets warm and sticky, and then it rains
and the sun comes sent back out and even feels even more warm and more
sticky. I think that's what we'll be in later in the weekend into the
weekend. Well, that sounds horrible, So I mean it's I You're welcome,
okay, all right, thanks sir, talk to you tomorrow. All
right, we'll come back. Joan Donnager from Bloomberg News joins us next hang
on talk all day four five, w PTI in the Triad and one oh
six one FM Talk in the Triangle Light. Good Morning at fifty three Bloomberg
Gun Take Now with Joan Donnager Joan, What's going on? Okay? See
while economists are watching to get an idea of our shopping patterns with Amazon's Prime
Day and just how much an inflation stressed consumer will actually spend. Amazon's trying
to prime the pump. Reuters reports Amazon's offering deeper discounts on more goods and
services for this year's Prime Day sale, and for the first time, those
discounts will include discounts on travel. Counting Threads users. Business Insider says the
new Twitter like app from Meta Platforms, the parent of Facebook and Instagram,
Threads is now the fastest growing platform ever. CEO Mark Zuckerberg has confirmed one
hundred million signups after only five days, and even workers at Meta didn't see
it coming. They had fairly low expectations for Threads. Twitter now sees Threads
as the company's first legit competitor. Two top PGA Tour officials are going before
members of the Senate today to defend the organization's merger plans with Saudi back to
live Golf. The officials plan to say the Saudi Public Investment Fund, the
biggest backer of Live Golf, will only be a minority investor and will not
be directing the golf business. Members of families of people killed on nine to
eleven do plan to be at the hearing. They had stood by the PGA
tour while LIV was poaching golfers. Most of the nine eleven hijackers were Saudi
nationals and big banks case are bracing for a regulatory overhaul that could require them
to set aside more money to withstand trouble. The Federal Reserves, top banking
regulator, wants them also to start using a standardized approach for estimating risk rather
than the ones they've been using, which sure just their own estimates. Okay,
I appreciate it, Joan. We'll chat tomorrow. Okay, talk to
you tomorrow. All right, there you go, Joan Donnager from Bloomberg News.
Well, I hope you had a good time. This is I was
just reading all the details of this. Right here, a New York man,
his name is Brian dance Lick arrested in Las Vegas. All right,
so this is a whole series of stupid right here. So apparently an altercation
was reported to police at the Bird Bar, which is at the Flamingo Las
Vegas Hotel and Casino. All right, so that's probably not unusual, right,
people drinking, A little scuffle ensues. However, when they arrived,
um, the victim remained, but the dance lick had fled, right,
and oddly, they determined the fight was over dance like attempting to steal the
man's artificial leg. That's like, it's like a Guardian It was like a
Guardians of the Galaxy. Right, They're trying to escape the prison and rockets,
Like what is he? I can remember who? He tells me.
He's like, yeah, and we need that. We need that guy's fake
leg or whatever it was, and he's gonna go over and get it.
And then he So I don't know what motivated this guy, but he did
attack basically a one leg of dude and then tried to steal his artificial leg,
so that that was number one. However, after he fled, apparently
he decided, um, hey, you know what I gotta blend into.
I'm gonna take home the clothes off. So, ordering to authorities, he
then fled through the link, eventually over to Harrah's and decided to walk into
the main casino. At Harrah's naked, get up on one of the poker
tables, and start waving his sports car around. It's not it didn't say
if he had the leg with him. I don't know that he got the
leg. It doesn't look like he got the leg the event, but he
was naked by the time he got to Harrah's. Came in, jumped up
on the poker table and started gyrating while waving his sports car around, asking
passers by to touch it. Sorry I should laugh, obviously, this guy's
piece of crap man So okay, So he did that. He was exposing
all of that, asking people, and then at one point he he changed
positions, bent down to expose his backside, and then started making it talk
to people. Was this one of the hang I didn't I don't know that
I saw all three of the hangover movies. Because this I'm getting the Hangover
movie vibe here right now. Security was able to take him into custody.
The man was escorted to a holding area where police say he was completely nud
covered only in a blanket when they arrived. According to police he there might
have been drugs and or alcohol involved dance like the next day, told police
he didn't remember the incident. Yeah, so you know, look, you
can get away with a lot in Vegas, right, Not that though.
Do you think he gave his butt an accent while he was making it?
Talk to passers by? And by the way, who's who's still passing by?
Are you going anywhere near that poker table? You know? And this
is the kind of crap that would happen if I had like hockey rockets too,
man getting ready to take a hand and all of a sudden it's new
dude on the table. So if you go to vy, don't do that,
okay, because you will get arrested for that pretty much to do anything
else to work with all right, And on that note, we gotta go
and for that helpful advice, but we'll see you tomorrow.
