WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:06.519
Hm, Well, there was the
possibility we weren't going to be here because

2
00:00:06.599 --> 00:00:14.560
you know, and was nigh,
and it was a conspiracy to not let

3
00:00:15.080 --> 00:00:19.640
Yukon win again. That was the
lamest conspiracy I think I saw on Twitter.

4
00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:29.800
You know, they handled their business
pretty if you were if you were

5
00:00:29.879 --> 00:00:36.119
paying enough attention to really break down
how teams were going about winning. Right

6
00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:44.200
if if you're that plugged in watching
what Purdue did yesterday and what you know

7
00:00:44.439 --> 00:00:52.000
Yukon matched it with, you know, just say it looked like one of

8
00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:57.399
those things where that looked like a
pretty good way to handle it, or

9
00:00:57.439 --> 00:01:00.679
attempt to handle it. And basically
it was the big dude in the middle

10
00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:08.519
who likes to party I guess with
hot co eds, which I'm hearing that's

11
00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:19.599
the thing among athletes in college,
so look it up AnyWho. You know.

12
00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:23.359
Basically, they said, all right, let big dude eat. Even

13
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:26.000
if he puts up forty and we
shut down outside shooters, we win.

14
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:34.000
And that's that's basically what worked.
I think he had thirty seven, Purdue

15
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:40.599
managed one, one three pointer and
that was the end of them. So

16
00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:46.159
there you go. College basketball in
the books. Now we can turn all

17
00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:53.280
of our attention to his baseball and
hockey man, get on with this thing.

18
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:56.920
Yeah yeah, yeah, I know
you got NBA stuff and all that,

19
00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:02.920
but baseball hockey at least uh,
at least around these parts. Although

20
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:09.080
the Twins did get slacked by the
Royals, like eleven nothing yesterday or twelve

21
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:13.080
nothing the other day, not yesterday, it was a few days ago.

22
00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:17.719
So I don't know, maybe i'll
uh pick up a new sport route for

23
00:02:17.800 --> 00:02:30.159
that, Like I don't know,
watching uh watching the cell phones on the

24
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:35.159
view. Oh yeah, oh,
we got we got that coming for you.

25
00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:39.879
That's that's gonna be on the show
today. Let's see. I saw

26
00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:44.000
something. Oh yeah, here we
go. I saw said this morning that

27
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:51.439
just just hit me and and and
I think it's gonna hit you too.

28
00:02:53.280 --> 00:03:00.919
Wait when again, you see how
blatant the corruption is? Oh? Why

29
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:06.479
yes, it is in the state
of Illinois. And it has to do

30
00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:10.800
with a what do they call her
the I've heard worst mayor in America?

31
00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:17.800
But what were they calling her?
Super mayor? That's right? Well were

32
00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:21.560
they weren't calling her that? She
was calling herself that. So if you

33
00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:31.759
don't know who the super mayor,
Tiffany Hainard is, or have read anything

34
00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:42.919
about this woman. It's bonkers.
Now it's alleged, but this mayor and

35
00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:49.759
the expenditures that I again, I
don't know how you justify them. This

36
00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:53.840
is not a large community in the
greater Chicago area Dalton. Honestly, I

37
00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:57.120
don't even know if I could find
it on a map. But I do

38
00:03:57.240 --> 00:04:04.840
know that reading the stories about what
this woman's accused of doing is is just

39
00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:12.439
crazy. Now she's going to be
out the village board and then let's see

40
00:04:12.479 --> 00:04:18.959
here, investigators, federal prosecutors,
you name it. I have all weighed

41
00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:23.160
in on this, and seemingly there
is not a lot of interest, even

42
00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:28.680
though you can sit here and you
can look at the accusations against this mayor,

43
00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:34.240
like tax funded economic development trips to
Vegas where they just blew it out,

44
00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:42.399
a series a series of SUVs,
high security SUVs, which are not

45
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:51.279
something a small community is typically spending
on COVID nineteen relief funds that just didn't

46
00:04:51.319 --> 00:05:00.160
make it to where they're supposed to. There's accusations of going know bypassing the

47
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:09.079
bid process for different different jobs,
and there's a couple of different ways that

48
00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:14.680
people will do it. A lot
of towns have a a bid requirement once

49
00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:17.199
you hit a certain dollar amount.
So one of the ways that public officials

50
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:24.279
in the past, it's seen attempt
to squirt skirt this is they break the

51
00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:30.959
job up right, so instead of
this job that is five thousand dollars and

52
00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:36.040
maybe the threshold's twenty five hundred or
whatever, they may break it up into

53
00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:42.560
three different things and yeah, it's
it's one of the popular ways. Or

54
00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:46.279
they will simply overpay the vendors.
So friends will come, you know,

55
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:54.360
friends or people who are wink wink, nod, nod. They'll put in

56
00:05:54.439 --> 00:06:00.959
a lower bid and then they will
exercise a flex which can be built into

57
00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:05.959
these contracts or emergency spending powers that
a mayor may have to sweeten the pot.

58
00:06:06.879 --> 00:06:13.319
And look, there's death by a
thousand cuts here. And if you

59
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:18.519
read and you read about even the
resolution that the tad that the village board

60
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:24.759
had to come to when they learned
of serious sexual assault allegations made against the

61
00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:29.759
former mayor while they were in Vegas, it's just there's so much going on

62
00:06:29.879 --> 00:06:33.920
here, and what is it turned
into. It's turned into if somebody says

63
00:06:33.920 --> 00:06:40.360
something, they're attacking her because she's
a strong black woman who's in a position

64
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:47.399
in a power and maga country in
and around Chicago can't handle it. They

65
00:06:47.439 --> 00:06:51.759
can't handle it. They can't handle
the overt racism when people are going,

66
00:06:51.800 --> 00:06:59.120
where's all the town's money? All
right? So all of these allegations are

67
00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:02.439
out there. Obviously the board things
that something's up. So what the city

68
00:07:02.519 --> 00:07:11.920
needed to do is they needed to
bring in an impartial investigator to get to

69
00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:15.480
the bottom of this. Remember they
did this with the Juicy smole a stuff,

70
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:18.480
right, They want to get to
the bottom of it, specifically as

71
00:07:18.519 --> 00:07:26.000
it pertained to a couple of the
prosecutors there, all right, So who

72
00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:30.079
do you think they brought in?
This is the whole reason for the long

73
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:33.560
setup, even if you just knew
a little about this mayor. Who do

74
00:07:33.720 --> 00:07:40.680
you think that the yesterday the Dalton
Village Board has brought in to be the

75
00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:49.000
official investigator and arbiter of whether they're
mayor who is accused of being corrupt about

76
00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:55.560
twenty seven different ways, if in
fact that is the case. And remember

77
00:07:55.560 --> 00:08:01.680
what I told you, feels very
convenient who they brought in? So with

78
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:05.160
that, am I ross you have
not seen this story? Would you like

79
00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:09.720
to guess who will be investigating the
most corrupt mayor that I've heard about in

80
00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:16.600
a while, allegedly. I remember
the state of Illinois. State of Illinois

81
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:20.079
very important. Are you guys ready, ready, ready, ready, LORI

82
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:28.360
Lightfoot, Yes, that's right,
the former mayor of Chicago until she was

83
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:35.159
thrown out for not being corrupt enough. I guess right. Remember it was

84
00:08:35.240 --> 00:08:41.679
the Teachers' union who ended up running
her for somebody who seems far crazier but

85
00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:46.559
is more than willing to stroke the
check. Yes, that's right, Lightfoot,

86
00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:52.360
who was an attorney prior to her
term as Chicago mayor, a former

87
00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:58.919
federal prosecutor, lost her bid for
a second term last year, but has

88
00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:05.840
now accepted the position at her standard
legal rate of four hundred per hour.

89
00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:11.720
She wanted to do this for quote
her minimum minimum rate. And then she

90
00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:20.559
will now probe Hainard and see if
anything's up. And I'm not saying that

91
00:09:20.600 --> 00:09:24.840
there's a bunch of girl power pictures
of them at like mayor's conferences and stuff,

92
00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:31.519
but you know those exist, so
h every single day. And meanwhile,

93
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:37.759
while all of this perceived corruption,
I'll let you decide whether it's actual

94
00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:43.480
corruption. I tend to think that
a lot of it is we'll let you,

95
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:46.919
you know, we'll let you ponder
what that could mean for her future

96
00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:56.720
and the the thoroughness and speed of
Lightfoot's investigation all the while. The meltdowns

97
00:09:56.759 --> 00:10:01.960
that took place yesterday on MSNBC,
CNN and online after a certain rumor started

98
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:09.080
to swirl just shows you the rank
hypocrisy of all of this. We'll get

99
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:15.879
that story for you. Senator Ted
Budds joining us this morning. So that's

100
00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:20.080
the thing that'll be at eight oh
six, So ready yourself for that.

101
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:26.200
We have FISA stuff. We got, like I said, the freak out

102
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:31.240
and we got to get into a
little Coastguard news here and then yeah,

103
00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:33.799
I'll share with you what the rumor
is. We'll do that next here on

104
00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:41.960
the CaCO Day radio program. And
yes, yes, yes, we did

105
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:46.480
not have the end of the world
yesterday. What we did have is traffic

106
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:54.279
jams, people screaming at each other, people stopped on the highway, people

107
00:10:54.279 --> 00:11:01.399
doing TikTok dances, and airplanes is
unfortunately a thing. They were all excited.

108
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:05.440
They run some flight where they got
to see stuff. Uh and uh,

109
00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:09.600
about one hundred articles this morning telling
people, hey, if you can't

110
00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:13.759
see anything stupid. Uh, maybe
you know you shouldn't have done the thing

111
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:20.200
yesterday. It sounds like one of
those things where you gotta test the theory,

112
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:24.120
like what your mom said, your
face is gonna stick that way.

113
00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:28.879
Some people are just I'm gonna look
at the farm. Good lights. That's

114
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:35.320
why we have these stories. Dooche
with nothing you protect bisi lights, look

115
00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:46.840
up a douche nothing you protect by
lies, look black a douche. Wait

116
00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:52.799
how bad could some a cardboard cutout
could out smart being right? I help

117
00:11:52.879 --> 00:12:01.679
people found out him some with the
trips fall and fat tell the chapars and

118
00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:07.480
I had to be the chunk who
had no special grass father from the stonar

119
00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:13.720
I wheels. I wasn't over my
headache. Kids was brought out. It

120
00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:16.919
was very a please in my ras
of the stream. It was like corny

121
00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:33.960
a crash through the crowd. My
cordis cry through the world man most time

122
00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:41.159
her bi bis looked up like a
douche with nothing to protect. My eyes

123
00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:46.519
blinded by the lights. Looked up
like a douche with nothing you protect My

124
00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:54.320
eyes finded by the lights, look
up like a noose with nothing you put

125
00:12:54.360 --> 00:13:07.799
by blind pig of ds look up
like a douche built in Jupi jupus.

126
00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:15.240
All right, there you go.
So and in fact, what was the

127
00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:22.480
number I saw? During the last
August twenty seventeen, more than twelve hundred

128
00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:31.480
people reported some sort of injury that
they had to escalate, likely due to

129
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:35.799
staring at the sun. And it
hurts. I've never steered at the sun

130
00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:41.440
and gotten hurt, but I've had
I've had the snow blindness, really bad

131
00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:48.360
ones. Just you know, out
there, you don't think of it.

132
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:50.919
With the reflective power of that snowman, sometimes we'll just get you. And

133
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:58.559
we we were hunting over two days, we're doing a lot of walking,

134
00:13:58.720 --> 00:14:01.480
lot of glass ing, and by
the second day, ma'am, I just

135
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:07.879
in front of my face just burned. So I just I held it up

136
00:14:07.879 --> 00:14:11.080
in the cabin the next day.
But yeah, there's it's a fair amount

137
00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:16.080
of folks who didn't listen. So
there you go. You made it through

138
00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:20.120
the eclipse. Unfortunately, if you
were one of these folks, who would

139
00:14:20.519 --> 00:14:24.919
you know already given your stuff away
and we're just waiting for the I guess

140
00:14:24.960 --> 00:14:30.039
the comet to fly by or whatever. You're gonna be a little disappointed.

141
00:14:30.080 --> 00:14:37.600
But you may not be totally out
of luck yet. Yeah, if you

142
00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:43.279
need a good doomsday thing to buckle
into, I gotta tell you they have

143
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:48.519
over delivered over at CBS News.
So we'll have that story for you coming

144
00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:54.159
up. And it's a dues,
so don't miss out, all right.

145
00:14:54.200 --> 00:15:01.919
So what are MSNBC, CNN and
others flipping out over this morning? Well,

146
00:15:01.960 --> 00:15:05.000
that, my friends, would be
the little rumor about who Donald Trump

147
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:15.639
may likely pick as his attorney general
schedule really was some show prep. I

148
00:15:15.840 --> 00:15:22.639
was reading part of a part of
a book that somebody had sent me.

149
00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:28.399
We kind of diving into that.
I'll tell you what it is once I

150
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:33.120
have an opinion and I'm done.
And then basketball. So yeah, I

151
00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:37.159
didn't. I didn't really deep dive
into some of the MSNBC CNN stuff,

152
00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:43.639
which I just kind of, you
know, doom look at for a few

153
00:15:43.720 --> 00:15:48.279
minutes in the evening. So watching
it this morning and lo and behold,

154
00:15:48.559 --> 00:15:54.200
I start to see a trend.
And the trend was Pundit's discussing a guy

155
00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:58.000
by the name of Kash Patel,
which I don't know. You may have

156
00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:03.399
heard the name before him, maybe
you haven't. The skinny is this during

157
00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:10.639
the Trump administration. He served as
US National Security Council official. Specifically,

158
00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:15.840
he was the senior legal advisor to
the Director of National Intelligence right, which

159
00:16:15.879 --> 00:16:22.480
is a big lawyer muckety muck position. He also was he worked with the

160
00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:30.759
Secretary of Defense as chief of Staff
and chief legal advisor. So that's his

161
00:16:30.879 --> 00:16:37.039
background. He's forty four. You
know, there's few other capacities, but

162
00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:41.440
look, he is for all practical
purposes, he's a DC guy. But

163
00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:49.759
he's a guy that seemingly folks like
and one that is not afraid to most

164
00:16:49.840 --> 00:17:00.120
definitely be very forthcoming with what he
thinks needs to happen if Republicans or in

165
00:17:00.159 --> 00:17:06.440
a position in this case through Donald
Trump to seize power back and more specifically

166
00:17:06.519 --> 00:17:15.119
to fix maybe what's wrong with the
dj and that terrifies, absolutely terrifies the

167
00:17:15.519 --> 00:17:22.160
rumor. Mill Adam Schiff and Dan
Goldman both basically started this rumor in separate

168
00:17:22.200 --> 00:17:30.240
statements and concluding. Goldman actually issued
a congressional statement saying that Donald Trump would

169
00:17:30.400 --> 00:17:37.039
end democracy by weaponizing the Justice Department
against his political enemies. Adam Shift says

170
00:17:37.119 --> 00:17:45.079
he is already operating under the assumption
that if Trump gets in there, he

171
00:17:45.119 --> 00:17:48.680
could you know he could face jail
time, and he's putting on a brave

172
00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:52.160
face. He's also running for Senate
and he is the scoundrel you know him

173
00:17:52.200 --> 00:18:02.680
to be. But just like the
instantaneous freak out over over you know why

174
00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:07.519
it really Shift was pushing this and
then Goldman came in. But how,

175
00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:11.799
how and why they're freaking out and
how and why they can't recognize the the

176
00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:18.480
immense amount of irony here. Now
here's where the problem lies. So Patel

177
00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:25.039
is on Steve Bannon's podcast and in
no uncertain terms when asked by Bannon,

178
00:18:25.119 --> 00:18:30.039
what do you think from a legal
priority, specifically with the d o J,

179
00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:36.000
what do you think is going to
be the you know, the Trump

180
00:18:36.359 --> 00:18:40.480
What are they going to be doing? What will people see who are concerned

181
00:18:40.480 --> 00:18:45.119
that the government has been turned into
a weaponized attack dog for a handful of

182
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:51.599
politicians and Patel uh and they played
the clip, but basically in it,

183
00:18:51.720 --> 00:18:56.960
Cash said that if there are if
there are anyone out there, anyone out

184
00:18:56.960 --> 00:19:02.400
there who has broken the law,
who was complicit in the abuse of things

185
00:19:02.480 --> 00:19:06.599
up to an including the FISA court, right if people are out there committing

186
00:19:06.680 --> 00:19:11.400
state of defenses and we're in a
time where the DOJ is taking a traditional

187
00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:17.640
parading charge and using it to add
a year of jail time at max to

188
00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:22.599
various j six defendants and giving fifty
dollars fines to people who were running in,

189
00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:30.960
screaming and throwing period blood during Supreme
Court hearings in the Senate, A

190
00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:36.680
lot of people share his opinion,
and that is what put him in a

191
00:19:36.720 --> 00:19:41.559
meltdown because among those listed, Patel
said, if you have complicit medium members

192
00:19:41.599 --> 00:19:45.000
who have broken the law, look
some of the stuff that was going on

193
00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:51.599
behind the scenes with Twitter if you
are a government bureaucrat or elected official.

194
00:19:51.720 --> 00:19:56.759
But if you're from the government,
some of those things don't look strictly legal

195
00:19:56.839 --> 00:20:02.880
for you to be doing, especially
when it comes to, you know,

196
00:20:02.920 --> 00:20:07.640
the amount of effort that seems to
have went into at the hand of the

197
00:20:07.680 --> 00:20:17.720
government to kill your First Amendment rights. But and here's the devil's advocate.

198
00:20:17.799 --> 00:20:23.240
Let me throw it out to you. There are those on the right who

199
00:20:23.319 --> 00:20:27.880
don't necessarily agree that it's in the
Republican's best interest to go, hey,

200
00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:32.920
you started this, we're here to
finish it. So that is going to

201
00:20:32.960 --> 00:20:38.559
be the big argument breaking out.
Kash Patel if he and he does have

202
00:20:38.599 --> 00:20:45.440
a history of following through what he
says he's going to do. But that'll

203
00:20:45.480 --> 00:20:49.200
be the indicator the direction of the
Trump administration wants to go. So yes,

204
00:20:49.400 --> 00:20:55.680
MSNBC and CNN should be nervous because, unlike some, I think that

205
00:20:55.799 --> 00:21:00.480
Patel has the potential to go effort. I'm going to burn this down and

206
00:21:00.839 --> 00:21:03.799
uh and get something better and do
so not out of from a revenge perspective,

207
00:21:03.960 --> 00:21:11.400
but simply say, look, we're
using the DOJ all in one direction,

208
00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:15.480
and it has so emboldened and empowered
people in DC to break the law

209
00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:21.160
that this is a crisis that is
out of control. But yeah, they're

210
00:21:21.160 --> 00:21:26.400
they're they're freaking out over it.
So uh and then people are just tweeting

211
00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:30.720
back mutually assured destruction. How do
you like it? I don't know.

212
00:21:30.960 --> 00:21:33.720
I wish we weren't in this position
where we have to go, Oh,

213
00:21:33.799 --> 00:21:45.799
the the entire DOJ apparatus may be
uh stage four cancer and uh, you

214
00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:48.599
know, something's got to be done, man. But I think a lot

215
00:21:48.599 --> 00:21:52.720
of people are there all right,
six forty one Cacoday Radio program. None

216
00:21:52.759 --> 00:22:02.599
of it may matter as yesterday about
the time I'm sundown rolled around, right,

217
00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:04.640
not the first one with the you
know, the eclipse, but the

218
00:22:04.680 --> 00:22:08.359
actual sundown. Right. You breathe
a sigh of relief, even though you

219
00:22:08.359 --> 00:22:12.519
don't, you know, clearly understand
how time zones work, and you just

220
00:22:12.599 --> 00:22:17.839
kind of wait and nothing happened,
and you think, well, I'm off

221
00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:22.759
the hook. Crap, I gotta
go to work tomorrow. I'd like you

222
00:22:22.799 --> 00:22:30.920
to know that you're in luck because
the folks over at CBS have a brand

223
00:22:30.960 --> 00:22:37.200
new thing for you to lose sleepover
and I'm excited. I hope you're excited.

224
00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:47.640
Yeah, buddy, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. Cicadas.

225
00:22:48.079 --> 00:22:49.599
Yeah, so you get it's actually
too you got to freak out over

226
00:22:49.640 --> 00:22:56.119
the avian flu, which is cattle
avian human hybrid or something except not really

227
00:22:56.160 --> 00:22:59.640
if you read the article, but
you know, that's one thing to think

228
00:22:59.680 --> 00:23:07.440
about. And number two is CBS
News warning of the coming cicada get in,

229
00:23:07.720 --> 00:23:15.079
which is I guess what we're going
through going for. I don't know,

230
00:23:17.720 --> 00:23:23.000
do you like cicada get in or
cicada lips? I think probably getting's

231
00:23:23.039 --> 00:23:26.440
better. But it's not just you
know, the bugs which make a lot

232
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:33.640
of noise in the evening when you're
just relaxing, listening off in the distance,

233
00:23:34.759 --> 00:23:41.000
usually usually finding great comfort in the
sound you hear, unless you raise

234
00:23:41.119 --> 00:23:47.319
crops. So but it gets far
worse. According to CBS, it's not

235
00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:52.440
just one brood. No, no, no, it's in fact two broods.

236
00:23:52.279 --> 00:23:56.799
Yes, that's right, cicadas who
spend most of their lives underground and

237
00:23:56.839 --> 00:24:02.839
only emerge after thirteen or seventeen years. This year happens to be the year

238
00:24:02.960 --> 00:24:07.720
where the broods will coincide, which
mathematically shouldn't they always but whatever, I'm

239
00:24:07.759 --> 00:24:12.039
not a cicada expert. Yes,
this year two of the largest broods will

240
00:24:12.039 --> 00:24:19.000
begin to emerge, Brood nineteen that's
going to be greeting us here in the

241
00:24:19.039 --> 00:24:26.240
South, and Brewed thirteen, which
will be up Illinois. Ways. However,

242
00:24:26.279 --> 00:24:29.920
the convergence with the bugs will arrive
in numbers that have not been seen

243
00:24:29.960 --> 00:24:38.559
in generations. And there's another problem. The cicadas, which are referred to

244
00:24:38.680 --> 00:24:48.079
as zombie circadas as cicadas will be
among It'll be among the most prevalent years

245
00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:53.400
for that. And the reason they're
called zombie cicadas is they are from a

246
00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:59.839
breeding perspective, there's something wrong with
them, right, There's only one thing

247
00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:07.720
they do rather than traditional cicad you
know, all the different stuff that cicadas

248
00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:19.359
do. They have one overwhelming driving
goal and it also has caused a health

249
00:25:19.440 --> 00:25:25.400
problem. All right, So the
cicadas, the zombie cicadas to be zombie

250
00:25:25.400 --> 00:25:30.599
cicadas and as part of this murderous
brood collective that CNN's freaking out. What

251
00:25:30.759 --> 00:25:33.920
you have to know is the reason
they refer to them as zombies is because

252
00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:41.480
the only thing they want to do
is, all right, you catch you

253
00:25:41.519 --> 00:25:45.319
what up putting down here? So
they're popping out of the ground and they're

254
00:25:45.400 --> 00:25:51.440
like, they're like a middle school
boy man who things is starting to figure

255
00:25:51.440 --> 00:25:59.160
stuff out. They got one thing
on the brain. Yes, that's right,

256
00:25:59.519 --> 00:26:03.200
We're going to be overwhelmed with slutty
cicadas. And according to CBS News,

257
00:26:03.599 --> 00:26:11.599
here's the headline, hyper sexual zombie
cicadas that are infected with STDs expected

258
00:26:11.640 --> 00:26:19.200
to emerge this year. The hell
you say so? Yes, CBS News

259
00:26:19.440 --> 00:26:26.799
hyper Sexual zombie cicadas infected with sexually
transmitted fungal disease expected to emerge this year.

260
00:26:27.680 --> 00:26:32.200
Who had that on the twenty twenty
four Bengo card. That's what I

261
00:26:32.240 --> 00:26:40.519
want to know. You know it's
already bugs that pester you are already problematic,

262
00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:45.480
but ones that do so like drunk
frat dudes at closing time, there's

263
00:26:45.480 --> 00:26:52.000
something that seems remarkably more more terrible
about that. So, yeah, between

264
00:26:52.039 --> 00:27:03.200
the Avian flu and you know,
the the horned up cicada is get ready,

265
00:27:03.480 --> 00:27:07.680
get ready for a summer of freak
out. Man. They have all

266
00:27:07.720 --> 00:27:11.960
this, they have all this stuff
you concern yourself with during the h you

267
00:27:11.000 --> 00:27:14.160
know, once we get in the
warm season, right, you're like,

268
00:27:14.319 --> 00:27:17.000
ah, we gotta make sure it
always got ticks these, you know,

269
00:27:17.079 --> 00:27:21.160
for those you like to get outdoors. I gotta make sure we reapply the

270
00:27:21.200 --> 00:27:23.759
sunscreen nine thousand times to the kids, and then we forget about our own

271
00:27:23.799 --> 00:27:27.440
feet and then our feet burn on
the top on the first day of vacation.

272
00:27:27.599 --> 00:27:33.680
That's something I did. Don't do
that. But now you got to

273
00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:42.799
watch out for mobs of horny,
std ridden cicadas. I'm telling you this

274
00:27:42.960 --> 00:27:47.000
is one you got. The pollen
suck. For anyone who's new here.

275
00:27:48.079 --> 00:27:51.319
Can you imagine this being your first
year in North Carolina, right, and

276
00:27:51.359 --> 00:27:56.359
nobody really prepared you for the for
the pollen. That's always a shock the

277
00:27:56.359 --> 00:28:00.960
first one of those and they're like, oh, I made it. You

278
00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:03.759
know, even though there they went
through all the clarity and like, no,

279
00:28:03.880 --> 00:28:06.000
I made it. This is this
is great. Made it through the

280
00:28:06.039 --> 00:28:08.720
pollen. It wasn't so bad,
dude. I had a friend who recently

281
00:28:08.759 --> 00:28:14.200
moved to the Carolina South Carolina.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, from Colorado.

282
00:28:15.039 --> 00:28:18.000
It's so different because you think pines
pines. I have the same thought.

283
00:28:18.039 --> 00:28:19.519
We got pines everywhere out there.
We don't have it doesn't happen.

284
00:28:19.680 --> 00:28:25.240
He recently sent me a picture of
his car. Yeah you know, it's

285
00:28:25.279 --> 00:28:29.200
a typical covered in pollen. Your
car looks yellow car. Yeah yeah,

286
00:28:29.240 --> 00:28:30.480
yeah. But he was in a
panic. He said, what the hell

287
00:28:30.599 --> 00:28:33.119
is going on? He had no
idea what was going on? He goes,

288
00:28:33.200 --> 00:28:36.000
what is all? Like, what
is it? I'm like, dude,

289
00:28:36.000 --> 00:28:37.119
that's the pollen I was telling you
about. He didn't believe me.

290
00:28:38.240 --> 00:28:44.920
It's because it seems it seems laughable
if you were to describe to somebody like

291
00:28:44.960 --> 00:28:48.640
the way or they think you're being
sarcastic or just exactly are you know,

292
00:28:48.640 --> 00:28:52.359
trying to scare the new guy kind
of thing. Well, imagine you get

293
00:28:52.359 --> 00:28:56.880
through all of that and you're like, all right, that was even worse

294
00:28:56.920 --> 00:29:00.920
than what Ross said. But at
least I made it right. And now

295
00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:03.519
I'm in, and now you're getting
ready for summer. And then all of

296
00:29:03.559 --> 00:29:14.440
a sudden in the distance, people
are moving right, is zicata wearing garters?

297
00:29:14.680 --> 00:29:18.319
Yeah? Look, as soon as
the cicada shows up, dress like

298
00:29:18.440 --> 00:29:23.880
the gimp from per you know,
from pulp fiction. Are you moving right?

299
00:29:23.880 --> 00:29:26.440
You're like, you know what,
I'm gonna check out the Tennessee Nasal

300
00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:33.759
sounds nice. Of course they'll have
them there too, but yeah, yeah,

301
00:29:33.839 --> 00:29:36.279
let's cicadas show up for a key
party. Man, you need to

302
00:29:36.279 --> 00:29:38.079
get out of there. That's all
I'm saying. So you've been warned,

303
00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:41.799
and I'm sure they'll harp on this
again about the time the little pervs buzt

304
00:29:41.839 --> 00:29:45.160
out all right, six forty nine, Hang on, Ted Buddle, join

305
00:29:45.279 --> 00:29:52.559
us, probably on the new national
nightmare that is the slutty cicadas with their

306
00:29:52.920 --> 00:29:59.359
STDs. Excuse me, these slutty
zombie cicadas. Dude, I'm telling you

307
00:29:59.400 --> 00:30:03.400
the headlines over the last few days
on avian flu, like it's a hundred

308
00:30:03.440 --> 00:30:12.920
times worse than COVID. Get ready, And then CBS yesterday with their with

309
00:30:14.039 --> 00:30:21.240
their headline hyper sexual zombie cicadas infected
with sexually transmitted fungus expected to emerge this

310
00:30:21.359 --> 00:30:25.160
year and they're freaking actors. They're
like, it's two broods. It's gonna

311
00:30:25.160 --> 00:30:27.160
be the worst. And look,
you know, you know how this goes.

312
00:30:30.640 --> 00:30:33.319
You know how much they love freaking
out about the cicadas. And don't

313
00:30:33.319 --> 00:30:42.480
get me wrong, you know they
could be very damaging. I'm not going

314
00:30:42.519 --> 00:30:47.319
to I'm not going to pretend like
that's not a thing. Is from an

315
00:30:47.359 --> 00:30:52.160
agricultural perspective, something that you know, folks have to deal with if you're

316
00:30:52.200 --> 00:30:57.039
growing, whether it's feed crop or
you know you're a farmer and that's what

317
00:30:57.079 --> 00:31:02.119
you're growing. I mean, these
are things you're concerned bound. But you

318
00:31:02.160 --> 00:31:06.920
know, CBS has to hook everybody. So now rather than guy who's trying

319
00:31:06.920 --> 00:31:11.359
to figure out whether he is field
of and then insert whatever cicadas can devastate,

320
00:31:12.200 --> 00:31:15.039
now, he's got to worry that
that they that they got some sort

321
00:31:15.079 --> 00:31:18.680
of weird kink and STD. I
mean, that's how you freak people out.

322
00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:22.319
Man. I feel like, I
honest, I feel like the goal

323
00:31:22.400 --> 00:31:27.559
through all of this is just to
achieve that weird dystopian sci fi thing where

324
00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:32.559
everyone just sits in like the you
know, it looks like a dentist chair,

325
00:31:32.640 --> 00:31:36.400
and then they're just jacked into the
matrix all day. I mean,

326
00:31:36.440 --> 00:31:40.839
what how much I mean to be
fair? That look like some delicious steak?

327
00:31:41.880 --> 00:31:44.400
Did it? Though? It?
Did it? Really? All of

328
00:31:44.440 --> 00:31:45.559
your line? Do you want?
Do you want to stay out of the

329
00:31:45.599 --> 00:31:49.359
matrix and struggle and eat porge all
the time? Or do you want a

330
00:31:49.359 --> 00:31:53.559
delicious steak? What it has all
of the nutrients that is necessary. I

331
00:31:53.599 --> 00:31:57.480
don't know if you remember Link telling
you that, but you know, I

332
00:31:59.000 --> 00:32:02.519
think Ceipher gets about that's all.
I think he even admits it's not steak,

333
00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:05.519
right, he knows it isn't,
but it tastes it is. So

334
00:32:05.559 --> 00:32:10.319
what's the difference if your if your
mind tells you your honor? I don't

335
00:32:10.359 --> 00:32:14.880
know. Well I'm staying in there
and make me a rock star. So

336
00:32:15.079 --> 00:32:16.640
but all right, well that's there. I'm telling you that's the goal,

337
00:32:16.759 --> 00:32:21.119
man. I have no other conclusion
to draw than that. And hey,

338
00:32:21.160 --> 00:32:23.319
you know it would be a lot
of I think China's demonstrated it's a lot

339
00:32:23.359 --> 00:32:30.079
easier to rule people when they're welded
into their house, right, Yeah,

340
00:32:30.119 --> 00:32:34.680
yeah, I mean it's a viable
strata or ros. Didn't you say you

341
00:32:34.680 --> 00:32:37.960
were going with iron masks and towers
the other day? You don't get to

342
00:32:37.000 --> 00:32:40.240
do jury duty? Yeah, open
the best deal. So that's the thing

343
00:32:40.279 --> 00:32:45.480
there. So imagine you know,
that's everything else you got going on?

344
00:32:45.720 --> 00:32:47.640
And why would you want to go
outside? Now? Was zombie cicadas with

345
00:32:47.799 --> 00:32:52.599
st d s and uh if you're
that farmer and you're looking out what you

346
00:32:52.599 --> 00:32:58.880
know used to be your I don't
know, wheat field or whatever, and

347
00:32:58.920 --> 00:33:02.119
it's gone, and now you're like, oh my gosh, the family farm,

348
00:33:02.160 --> 00:33:07.319
it's been, it's done. Do
these broods? Can you imagine how

349
00:33:07.319 --> 00:33:10.359
extra insulted you're gonna feel when on
their way out, one of them is

350
00:33:10.359 --> 00:33:15.880
trying to get you to sign up
for their only fans. I'm assuming that

351
00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:20.400
if we got slutty cicadas, a
few of them are on the of and

352
00:33:20.559 --> 00:33:24.519
some freaks somewhere is watching it.
Maybe some freaking Texas because apparently they got

353
00:33:24.559 --> 00:33:28.559
a few freaks down there will introduce
you to a couple. In fact,

354
00:33:28.640 --> 00:33:34.519
let's do this now. This is
just awful, And what makes it even

355
00:33:34.599 --> 00:33:39.519
more awful is then I saw like
internet super lawyers. Those would be not

356
00:33:39.720 --> 00:33:47.880
actual lawyers, but super sluice out
there in some way, shape or form,

357
00:33:47.920 --> 00:33:52.119
trying to find a loophole for the
wife. All right, So if

358
00:33:52.119 --> 00:33:59.000
you don't know this horrific story,
there ain't nothing good here. But there

359
00:33:59.039 --> 00:34:06.680
are some questions. So let's just
let's see where we go here, shall

360
00:34:06.720 --> 00:34:10.480
we? Eas This spring couple now
looking at prison time, charged with felonies

361
00:34:10.719 --> 00:34:15.239
after investigators say they discovered the two
had been engaging in loot and illegal acts.

362
00:34:17.320 --> 00:34:21.480
It all starts here at this atb
on Rayford Road, where officials with

363
00:34:21.519 --> 00:34:25.559
the Montgomery County Precinct three Constable's Office
say they were dispatched back on March thirteen.

364
00:34:25.920 --> 00:34:31.199
They say William King was following kids
around inside the supermarket as he exposed

365
00:34:31.360 --> 00:34:36.400
and touched his genitals. During the
course of the investigation, officials say they

366
00:34:36.400 --> 00:34:38.559
seized William King's phone. All right, I'm gonna pause here, all right,

367
00:34:38.599 --> 00:34:43.599
so you catch the gist there.
The husband is he's accused of,

368
00:34:44.199 --> 00:34:49.519
you know, running around in a
store, showing off the goods, touching

369
00:34:49.559 --> 00:34:52.519
the goods, doing so obviously where
you know, when women are around and

370
00:34:52.719 --> 00:34:57.840
children are around. Is the accusation. Right, yeah, this guy's already

371
00:34:57.920 --> 00:35:02.320
in alleged bury him under the and
company. Right, we can agree,

372
00:35:02.679 --> 00:35:06.239
all right, So God help us? What are they going to find on

373
00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:10.440
this man's home found not only child
pornography, but also evidence of beast reality

374
00:35:10.559 --> 00:35:15.079
involving his wife. They say they
found a video of Jolie King having sex

375
00:35:15.119 --> 00:35:20.039
with the couple's Great Dane dog.
Today, they were both arrested at their

376
00:35:20.039 --> 00:35:23.159
home in the Harmony subdivision Nearby.
Officials say they were not only able to

377
00:35:23.199 --> 00:35:29.199
rescue that abused great Dane, but
also two other dogs from the couple's home,

378
00:35:29.239 --> 00:35:34.360
and say that they've prevented them from
further sexual exploitation. Now, I'm

379
00:35:34.400 --> 00:35:37.039
all right, so and I understand
people love dogs, got it, big

380
00:35:37.079 --> 00:35:39.840
fan of dogs, and I know
that people are gonna be concerned and they're

381
00:35:39.880 --> 00:35:45.599
probably glad to hear that part.
They also put pulled kids out of there.

382
00:35:46.719 --> 00:35:52.880
I mean, we just quite that. I understand that really the great

383
00:35:52.960 --> 00:35:57.320
Dane that you know, part of
this, that's the that's the that's the

384
00:35:57.400 --> 00:36:02.039
twist in all of this. But
they also they removed children too. They

385
00:36:02.079 --> 00:36:06.239
had at least one minor child,
I think it was ten, and then

386
00:36:06.239 --> 00:36:08.079
they had a kid who's eighteen who
was living there. He's I guess technically

387
00:36:08.119 --> 00:36:12.760
not a kid, but I'm glad
they got the dogs out. But you

388
00:36:12.760 --> 00:36:17.000
know, you might mention the kids. But also how do these two find

389
00:36:17.039 --> 00:36:22.400
each other? How do they and
and what do you do to Marmaduke?

390
00:36:22.519 --> 00:36:30.440
Right? Was Marba Duke a great
Dane? I don't know, can't remember,

391
00:36:30.519 --> 00:36:35.920
been a while since I was a
kid. But yeah, So just

392
00:36:36.000 --> 00:36:38.719
remember each and every day as you
go about your business. You're just going

393
00:36:38.760 --> 00:36:42.840
through life trying to do what's best
for you and your family. Just remember

394
00:36:42.880 --> 00:36:47.559
we're surrounded by psychopaths. Okay,
all right, then the better off you'll

395
00:36:47.599 --> 00:36:55.760
be. Okay. Speaking of headlines, Salon has a doozy and San Francisco

396
00:36:58.480 --> 00:37:01.960
this is progress, so they you
know, they just officials in San Francisco

397
00:37:02.039 --> 00:37:08.000
have looked around and I think they've
realized, Man, a bunch of businesses

398
00:37:08.079 --> 00:37:14.480
that used to do business here in
our community are either no longer doing business

399
00:37:14.639 --> 00:37:20.639
or they're doing like a weird,
slim down version of it, like the

400
00:37:20.679 --> 00:37:22.920
taco bells. Remember the taco bells. They're not going to open the inside

401
00:37:22.920 --> 00:37:29.239
of them. And that has members
of the public obviously clamoring to their elected

402
00:37:29.280 --> 00:37:32.079
officials, going what are we going
to do about this? We got these

403
00:37:32.519 --> 00:37:37.519
We got grocery stores leaving remember Target, Whole Foods, all of which have

404
00:37:37.599 --> 00:37:43.599
closed, several stores, fast food
joints, in and out Burger, and

405
00:37:43.920 --> 00:37:47.519
pretty much every retailer of decent quality
that was in that downtown area of San

406
00:37:47.559 --> 00:37:52.719
Francisco. There used to be a
big shopping district and is now a big

407
00:37:53.599 --> 00:38:04.119
defecated on the ground district with drugs
system. And uh, I think that

408
00:38:04.239 --> 00:38:09.559
this has caused for some self reflection, right, I mean, that's how

409
00:38:09.559 --> 00:38:14.519
you would do this. That's the
story saying city officials are trying to figure

410
00:38:14.559 --> 00:38:16.920
out how to solve this problem.
Obviously you're going to have to look and

411
00:38:16.960 --> 00:38:22.119
go what is it? What kind
of environment are we creating where Target and

412
00:38:22.239 --> 00:38:27.639
Whole Foods and in and Out Burgers
and businesses that have been long successful.

413
00:38:27.719 --> 00:38:31.119
What environment do we have where they're
they're wanted to get out of here.

414
00:38:35.599 --> 00:38:38.519
Well, that's what they should do, but maybe it's not what they actually

415
00:38:38.599 --> 00:38:43.400
did. We'll get to that coming
up here on the CaCO Day radio program.

416
00:38:43.480 --> 00:38:46.159
So as you're well aware and it's
not just San Francisco, Oakland,

417
00:38:46.559 --> 00:38:52.199
a lot of a lot of Oakland
in the news parts of Chicago, Baltimore.

418
00:38:53.639 --> 00:38:59.000
What I see up in Philadelphia right, wasn't wasn't the gas station up

419
00:38:59.000 --> 00:39:06.159
there was the gat what the no. Two of the chains wah wai and

420
00:39:06.199 --> 00:39:09.239
then one or the other to remember, one of the others have either stopped

421
00:39:09.480 --> 00:39:14.320
or withdrawn frandly in case of wah
wah, they shut. I think they

422
00:39:14.360 --> 00:39:19.360
shut every whah wah technically in Philly
city limits. So you have to go

423
00:39:19.400 --> 00:39:23.000
the suburbs. Right, it's a
it's just a mess. And yet we

424
00:39:23.079 --> 00:39:27.639
then we have to watch these politicians
scream about, oh, well, obviously

425
00:39:27.639 --> 00:39:31.840
what's going on here is racism or
whatever you know, insert whatever the charge

426
00:39:31.880 --> 00:39:37.679
is, and not literally uh people
going, well, wait a sec.

427
00:39:37.760 --> 00:39:40.800
We have a storefront, we're losing
more money than we're making. And in

428
00:39:40.840 --> 00:39:45.559
the world of business, that generally
doesn't mean you stay open. You have

429
00:39:45.639 --> 00:39:52.480
employee concerns, your your insurance has
went up based on incidents. There's the

430
00:39:52.519 --> 00:39:55.079
whole host of things. And then
immediately if it's big companies, they're like,

431
00:39:55.440 --> 00:40:00.199
they're just doing this too, you
know, bullyk consumers and it's like

432
00:40:00.559 --> 00:40:07.360
or they just don't want to deal
with this is it's not making them any

433
00:40:07.400 --> 00:40:14.559
money, it's creating a hassle.
And generally these are going to be in

434
00:40:15.360 --> 00:40:21.559
very very expensive areas to operate,
right San Francisco, doing business in the

435
00:40:21.559 --> 00:40:27.199
city of San Francisco, Chicago for
that matter, there's you're gonna make an

436
00:40:27.280 --> 00:40:34.840
investment. That's why it is especially
egregious what the San Francisco lawmakers are talking

437
00:40:34.880 --> 00:40:43.800
about. Now. So here we
go. Let's see, San Francisco lawmakers

438
00:40:43.800 --> 00:40:49.719
have introduced a proposal that would require
grocery stores in this city. So this

439
00:40:49.880 --> 00:40:55.719
starts with grocery stores, but as
you'll see, with the discussion and the

440
00:40:55.760 --> 00:41:01.400
way that they want to write this, it easily be expanded to anybody who

441
00:41:01.639 --> 00:41:08.480
attempts to open a business of public
accommodation in San Francisco. So faced with

442
00:41:08.599 --> 00:41:15.159
the reality that these stores are fleeing, that hurts revenue, that hurts people.

443
00:41:15.199 --> 00:41:19.880
You know, people then don't want
to go to these areas to do

444
00:41:20.079 --> 00:41:27.679
commerce because now there's less choice and
there's whatever dangerous component led to the decision

445
00:41:27.719 --> 00:41:37.519
making that all still exists and it
just cascades and rather than realizing that you've

446
00:41:37.559 --> 00:41:45.079
created this environment where it's lawless.
It's lawless as your behest and business owners

447
00:41:45.079 --> 00:41:49.360
who have you know lot probably paid
a lot more taxes than the majority of

448
00:41:49.400 --> 00:41:58.719
your constituents. Have just said enough. But rather than changing their ways and

449
00:41:58.800 --> 00:42:05.280
creating once again a high quality you
know, business opportunity, city officials would

450
00:42:05.360 --> 00:42:10.119
require grocery store owners to provide six
months written notice to the Board of Supervisors,

451
00:42:10.760 --> 00:42:17.000
as well as several other governmental agencies, should they be wanting to sell

452
00:42:17.880 --> 00:42:25.079
clothes or limit over a certain percentage
their staff. So if you if you

453
00:42:25.159 --> 00:42:29.639
found yourself in a position where the
numbers continue not to add up, you

454
00:42:29.719 --> 00:42:37.719
gave it the old college try but
between the you know, the shrinkage you

455
00:42:37.719 --> 00:42:42.239
know from theft UH incidents that may
have stuck with you. If you've had

456
00:42:42.360 --> 00:42:47.360
multiple armed robberies on a weekly basis. Is one store in San Francisco dealt

457
00:42:47.360 --> 00:42:52.440
with they had like tour, they
had two or three robberies every week for

458
00:42:52.519 --> 00:42:58.280
like three or four weeks. It's
just crazy. Rather than making that decision

459
00:42:58.719 --> 00:43:05.480
now you'll be penalized, and should
you make this notification, you're not off

460
00:43:05.519 --> 00:43:10.519
the hook. The stores would also
be required to post notices at all entrance

461
00:43:10.599 --> 00:43:19.000
and exits as a means of informing
customers in general public, but also would

462
00:43:19.039 --> 00:43:25.840
be tasked with an obligation to explore
a replacement supermarket at the vacated location.

463
00:43:27.400 --> 00:43:30.960
So if you are a if you
have a supermarket, and this doesn't just

464
00:43:30.000 --> 00:43:35.679
go for Vond's or Safeway or you
know which I guess are the big ones

465
00:43:35.719 --> 00:43:38.840
out there in California. It's not
just them, but you could just you

466
00:43:38.840 --> 00:43:45.039
could be somebody who owns like a
bodega style shop. Right, What classifies

467
00:43:45.079 --> 00:43:50.880
you as a grocery store in California's
pretty broad because California wanted to do the

468
00:43:50.960 --> 00:43:53.440
thing or they required all stores to
have fresh fruit, and they expanded it

469
00:43:53.480 --> 00:44:00.000
to you know, quick marks and
quick markets and gas stations. So yeah,

470
00:44:00.079 --> 00:44:04.000
yeah, And if you want to
close your store because you're getting rob

471
00:44:04.079 --> 00:44:07.880
blind and the community tried to arsen
you, you got to tell people for

472
00:44:07.920 --> 00:44:12.599
six months, and after six months
you need to have somebody else willing to

473
00:44:12.639 --> 00:44:15.599
step in and deal with that.
Which think about that, Think about the

474
00:44:15.760 --> 00:44:22.320
inherent dishonesty that would almost be required
in that real estate transaction, you know,

475
00:44:22.360 --> 00:44:25.880
because a grocery if you're wanting to
open a grocery store buying where an

476
00:44:25.880 --> 00:44:30.159
old grocery store is is from a
cost standpoint, probably going to be your

477
00:44:30.159 --> 00:44:37.199
best option. One, hopefully it's
it's at least in the right area to

478
00:44:37.239 --> 00:44:42.079
be useful. But two, it's
going to be fitted out right. All

479
00:44:42.119 --> 00:44:45.320
the coolers you need around the back. Everything store is neat. I don't

480
00:44:45.320 --> 00:44:47.320
know what all of it is,
but that's gonna make it, you know,

481
00:44:47.599 --> 00:44:52.760
that's gonna make it a lucrative way
to go about what is already a

482
00:44:52.880 --> 00:44:58.320
not very lucrative business unless you're really
good at it because the margin is so

483
00:44:58.440 --> 00:45:01.320
small. So the city of San
San Francisco realized they had a problem.

484
00:45:01.440 --> 00:45:07.280
Businesses are like bo no saying what
it used to be, or the cost

485
00:45:07.320 --> 00:45:10.400
of doing businesses too much, or
we have to have everything locked up,

486
00:45:10.480 --> 00:45:16.519
and then customers don't want to come
here, like because of the hassle factor.

487
00:45:16.719 --> 00:45:21.400
And I'm feeling that I did one
twenty minute wait in a Walmart for

488
00:45:21.519 --> 00:45:28.719
razor blades one time, and I
swore never again, never again. Man.

489
00:45:30.599 --> 00:45:35.280
So you know, a decision is
made, and that decision has been

490
00:45:35.360 --> 00:45:42.360
to close down in some cases to
consolidate, Like you had brands that did

491
00:45:42.400 --> 00:45:45.280
have multiple stores in San Francisco and
well they may have closed, and you

492
00:45:45.280 --> 00:45:51.840
know the downtown area which has turned
into not the shopping district that used to

493
00:45:51.880 --> 00:45:57.920
be. They it still limits consumer
options because now instead of four locations,

494
00:45:57.960 --> 00:46:01.679
maybe they have two. And so
that's when lawmakers had to figure out,

495
00:46:01.679 --> 00:46:05.440
well, how do we deal with
this? Do you create an environment where

496
00:46:05.440 --> 00:46:10.880
there is law and order and consumers
and retailers, you know, feel that

497
00:46:10.920 --> 00:46:15.440
they're able to conduct their business with
a certain element of safety and satisfaction.

498
00:46:16.119 --> 00:46:21.480
Do you strive for that or do
you do what San Francisco has done and

499
00:46:21.519 --> 00:46:23.440
create a law that, Hey,
if you want to invest, and keep

500
00:46:23.480 --> 00:46:28.480
in mind, if you're somebody who's
thinking of investing, this is all information

501
00:46:28.599 --> 00:46:32.480
that's now in your head. If
I if I commit to try to do

502
00:46:32.679 --> 00:46:37.880
business in this community, in this
area where people are screaming, food,

503
00:46:37.920 --> 00:46:43.880
desert, and after six months,
I'm losing my butt so thoroughly due to

504
00:46:44.199 --> 00:46:49.320
all of the problems that people have
had. Now after I say I'm going

505
00:46:49.360 --> 00:46:52.679
to shut down, the government's going
to come in and force me to not

506
00:46:52.800 --> 00:46:59.599
shut down at least for six months. Who the hell are who the hell

507
00:46:59.639 --> 00:47:02.239
are you to come into some mob
Pod grocery store where he's like, I'm

508
00:47:02.239 --> 00:47:06.000
on my second mortgage. We're probably
gonna lose the house, but I can't

509
00:47:06.039 --> 00:47:10.760
do it anymore. And some bureaucrats
say, you sell butter. Get out

510
00:47:10.760 --> 00:47:22.159
there and sell butter now under penalty
of you know, some some ungodly trumped

511
00:47:22.239 --> 00:47:25.840
up moon bat punishment. We're gonna
dole out like you're a j sixer for

512
00:47:25.960 --> 00:47:30.239
making us look bad. And let
me a couple of this. Let me,

513
00:47:30.599 --> 00:47:36.280
have you guys heard what's happened in
Minneapolis. Oh man, I'm telling

514
00:47:36.320 --> 00:47:38.679
you there are just days. I
am so glad and I like the city

515
00:47:38.719 --> 00:47:43.519
of Minneapolis. I like the people. Yes, I even like ice fishing.

516
00:47:45.599 --> 00:47:50.039
I love having the you know,
everything that the woods of Minnesota provide.

517
00:47:50.039 --> 00:47:52.079
There's a lot of rollover with North
Carolina. That's why I love that.

518
00:47:52.719 --> 00:47:58.400
But there's just something special about the
Boundary waters and all its unique things.

519
00:47:58.440 --> 00:48:01.800
In the same way that I I
could wax nostalgic on all the opportunities

520
00:48:01.840 --> 00:48:06.960
North Carolina provides. I think they're
fundamentally both great states, especially if you

521
00:48:07.079 --> 00:48:14.480
like the outdoors. But also,
man, Minneapolis was on a that was

522
00:48:15.480 --> 00:48:17.639
changing, and by the time I
got out of there. It had it

523
00:48:17.679 --> 00:48:21.960
had fully been served up to the
moon beets, which is why I lived

524
00:48:22.000 --> 00:48:28.360
out on out the lake Man.
And I'm still on the press release and

525
00:48:28.400 --> 00:48:30.360
I can't get off. I've tried
to get off all the City of Minneapolis

526
00:48:30.360 --> 00:48:32.840
press, so I go get them, and every day it is something more

527
00:48:32.840 --> 00:48:43.760
and more insane, just absolutely giving
it up. So in Minneapolis, the

528
00:48:43.840 --> 00:48:50.400
city council, here we go,
The city council recently voted in a new

529
00:48:50.599 --> 00:48:58.239
wage requirement requirement which had been the
topic of discussion for quite some time and

530
00:48:58.639 --> 00:49:04.280
was opposed by most consumer groups as
well as as you can imagine, representatives

531
00:49:04.280 --> 00:49:09.119
from both Uber and Lyft. So
what was it the council they jumped on

532
00:49:09.239 --> 00:49:15.719
this same Seattle bandwagon when they're like, ah, we need to create a

533
00:49:15.960 --> 00:49:22.079
minimum for Uber and Lyft drivers,
and so that's what they did. However,

534
00:49:22.159 --> 00:49:30.960
the minimum, which let's see,
would create a all right, here

535
00:49:30.039 --> 00:49:34.320
we go, a minimum of five
dollars per ride. Okay, well that's

536
00:49:34.360 --> 00:49:38.320
not a bunch one forty per mile. But the net result is to require

537
00:49:38.400 --> 00:49:45.800
that anyone who drives for Uber Lyft
currently averages fifteen fifty seven per hour.

538
00:49:46.920 --> 00:49:51.480
So why is that important? Well, some people make a lot more than

539
00:49:51.480 --> 00:49:54.480
that. Some people are able to
make more than that, So a lot

540
00:49:54.480 --> 00:49:59.159
of people aren't. Though you know
they drive uber lyft, they maybe they

541
00:49:59.199 --> 00:50:01.679
don't drive it with the the same
fervor the guy who's constantly you know,

542
00:50:01.719 --> 00:50:05.960
figured out where he's got a park. Have you ever been in an uber

543
00:50:06.039 --> 00:50:09.559
where the driver like has it figured
out and they like to tell you about

544
00:50:09.559 --> 00:50:13.440
it, which is fine, like
out of my little conversation in there,

545
00:50:13.480 --> 00:50:15.880
and I like, people are passionate
about stuff. And he's just like,

546
00:50:15.960 --> 00:50:20.239
yeah, so if I'm from if
I'm at RTP at the airport between these

547
00:50:20.280 --> 00:50:22.719
two hours and then I'm by them
all during this time, and then this

548
00:50:22.840 --> 00:50:25.920
time, like you know, I'm
I'm pulling in a decent little money.

549
00:50:27.000 --> 00:50:30.239
And good for that guy. That's
somebody went out and said I'm gonna do

550
00:50:30.280 --> 00:50:34.800
this, but I'm gonna do it
better. But it also shouldn't be a

551
00:50:34.840 --> 00:50:38.280
knock on people who are casual uber
lyft drivers. Right there are people who

552
00:50:38.320 --> 00:50:45.000
go throughout the day and they're you
know, they're out doing they're running errands,

553
00:50:45.039 --> 00:50:46.599
they're doing stuff. Maybe they got
a couple hours in there and the

554
00:50:46.719 --> 00:50:51.119
you know, before the kids get
off school. Maybe it's uh, you

555
00:50:51.119 --> 00:50:52.280
know, you got to stay at
home parent or whatever. And for those

556
00:50:52.280 --> 00:50:58.760
two hours they drive a little bake
a little extra income. Well, now

557
00:50:58.760 --> 00:51:00.400
you got to go through and you
got a calc during the time that they

558
00:51:00.400 --> 00:51:04.719
were available, was this dollar amount
received? And if not, Uber and

559
00:51:04.760 --> 00:51:07.199
Lyft have to supplement that. And
then the way that they supplement it is

560
00:51:07.280 --> 00:51:12.639
they then build it into the pricing
for the entirety of the community there.

561
00:51:12.639 --> 00:51:17.480
And it's a giant pain and largely
has such a negative impact where they've they've

562
00:51:17.519 --> 00:51:22.719
run into this that Uber and Lyft
just say no, we're not We're not

563
00:51:22.719 --> 00:51:25.199
going to do that. There there
are things, and you could agree or

564
00:51:25.239 --> 00:51:30.880
disagree, right, but there are
things that Uber and Lyft will pay and

565
00:51:30.480 --> 00:51:37.320
do have additional things tacked on,
bridge and tunnel stuff, and some cities

566
00:51:37.360 --> 00:51:42.280
that have implemented congestion pricing, they'll
build those in tolls things like that.

567
00:51:44.440 --> 00:51:46.639
But when it comes to this,
no, because now it's not a viable

568
00:51:47.119 --> 00:51:52.760
option. So Uber and Lyft have
announced that as of May first, which

569
00:51:52.800 --> 00:51:59.119
is when the law goes into effect, they're out. That's right. In

570
00:52:00.159 --> 00:52:02.800
their effort to do this and this
thing that they were told if you do

571
00:52:02.920 --> 00:52:07.719
this, we will know it's not
we can't do business here because the math

572
00:52:07.800 --> 00:52:14.159
doesn't math anymore. Now the entire
city of Minneapolis will be without the ability

573
00:52:14.199 --> 00:52:19.599
to use an uber or Lyft.
That's crazy to me. And you know,

574
00:52:19.760 --> 00:52:24.519
taxis is taxis in Minnesota were never
that great. But also they you

575
00:52:24.559 --> 00:52:27.840
know, they had to put up
with Uber and Lyft coming in, so

576
00:52:28.000 --> 00:52:32.360
already you have a fundamentally different playing
field. But now the companies are to

577
00:52:32.400 --> 00:52:35.760
say, we're not going to do
it, We're not going to do this.

578
00:52:36.639 --> 00:52:39.199
And I think this is more of
a tactical political position now because then

579
00:52:39.320 --> 00:52:45.039
all the cities be jumping on the
carcass. But now Minneapolis Saint Paul,

580
00:52:45.119 --> 00:52:50.719
one of the twentiest largest metros in
the United States I think they're fifteenth,

581
00:52:51.440 --> 00:52:55.079
will not have Uber and Lyft and
will be at the whim for local cab

582
00:52:55.159 --> 00:53:00.960
companies, which as somebody who on
a lot of time in Minnesota pre Uber

583
00:53:01.000 --> 00:53:06.239
and Lyft, getting a hold of
a taxi at closing time when it's twenty

584
00:53:06.280 --> 00:53:12.079
below is it's a problem. And
you know, frankly, this probably will

585
00:53:12.119 --> 00:53:16.920
have an impact on dui rates too, but it fits with the pattern doesn't

586
00:53:16.960 --> 00:53:22.280
it right? So you got city
officials here now they want to punish uber

587
00:53:22.440 --> 00:53:27.480
lyft, figure out ways to force
them to stick around. And in California,

588
00:53:27.519 --> 00:53:30.119
if you're own a store, you
make that investment, you lose your

589
00:53:30.199 --> 00:53:34.719
behind. If you try to shut
six months before six months, then there'll

590
00:53:34.719 --> 00:53:37.920
be penalties, and I guess the
government will come in and force you to

591
00:53:37.000 --> 00:53:44.760
sell groceries or something. And that's
the pattern many. You have a bunch

592
00:53:44.800 --> 00:53:50.519
of democratic lawmakers who long for a
world where people are forced to ply whatever

593
00:53:50.559 --> 00:53:58.320
their trade is for free, under
penalty and threat. Think about what that

594
00:53:58.440 --> 00:54:02.719
sounds like, and maybe you'll understand
why these democratic lawmakers are such a big

595
00:54:02.760 --> 00:54:08.039
fan of this ross. Can you
imagine a system where basically government bureaucrats and

596
00:54:08.320 --> 00:54:15.880
wealthy, wealthy muckety MUCKs literally force
people to provide labor to them for essentially

597
00:54:15.920 --> 00:54:21.840
nothing, under penalty of some sort
of punishment. Can you imagine a scenario

598
00:54:21.920 --> 00:54:24.960
where democratic lawmakers set up a system
like that? I can't even fathom it.

599
00:54:25.280 --> 00:54:30.039
I can't e I can't either.
What you know, what would you

600
00:54:30.079 --> 00:54:36.360
even call something like that? Anyway? Seven forty five you ponder it race

601
00:54:36.360 --> 00:54:43.159
stage iqre to give his weather two
cents all right, man, Yes,

602
00:54:43.679 --> 00:54:46.280
it was so simple once you figured
out the why. It was a really

603
00:54:46.280 --> 00:54:51.320
good strategy. Let the big dude
from Produced eat you know, feast all

604
00:54:51.400 --> 00:54:54.280
day, but limit them to one
three point shot and Purdue is dead.

605
00:54:54.719 --> 00:54:59.840
That worked, well A yeah,
it did, they did. And what

606
00:55:00.119 --> 00:55:02.239
what's it? Ben s it's a
big ten's won a championship and been quite

607
00:55:02.280 --> 00:55:06.880
a while, quite a while,
but congrats to economy. And what's back

608
00:55:06.880 --> 00:55:12.480
to back? Yeah? First since
seven first since. Yeah. Now we

609
00:55:12.480 --> 00:55:20.400
move on raining right now at Augusta. So the rain, yes, no,

610
00:55:20.480 --> 00:55:23.840
I'm sorry, this is all right, go ahead, Okay, some

611
00:55:24.000 --> 00:55:29.880
rain right now at Augusta. But
I think the rain will taper off.

612
00:55:30.079 --> 00:55:34.079
We'll get a break, but I
think by Thursday we'll have more rain back.

613
00:55:34.119 --> 00:55:37.800
But once it clears out and we'll
get into Friday, Saturday, Sunday

614
00:55:37.800 --> 00:55:40.719
should be some beautiful weather. So
we'll see about first round I believe starts

615
00:55:40.760 --> 00:55:46.159
Thursday, and that rain hopefully not
impacting too much more than maybe the first

616
00:55:46.239 --> 00:55:50.199
round, so hopefully you get out
of that. Yeah, some of that

617
00:55:50.320 --> 00:55:53.400
rain heading in our direction and some
showers. Now, oh, I kind

618
00:55:53.400 --> 00:56:00.480
of like the music was closed sess
talking about Augusta anymore. There are rules

619
00:56:00.480 --> 00:56:04.760
about all this moving towards Sandford and
maybe faye Ville in the next hour.

620
00:56:04.960 --> 00:56:07.719
So that's got a little batch of
showers up or showers back to the west

621
00:56:07.719 --> 00:56:10.920
of that, and I think we'll
get some This big massive rain should weaken

622
00:56:10.960 --> 00:56:15.079
a bit as it approaches low to
mid seventies today, then'll break tonight,

623
00:56:15.480 --> 00:56:19.440
a few showers, Tomorrow mid upper
seventies, and then it's Thursday, Thursday

624
00:56:19.519 --> 00:56:22.519
night that we'll see showers thunderstorms increase
in intensity and coverage. Gonn have some

625
00:56:22.599 --> 00:56:28.760
heavy rain. Hold I want to
quote myself, I don't think we're under

626
00:56:29.519 --> 00:56:32.000
a severe risk. I think I
looked and we were going to stay out

627
00:56:32.039 --> 00:56:35.559
of Yeah, well we'll stay for
the most part out of the sphere weather

628
00:56:35.719 --> 00:56:40.880
risk slight risk maybe for a couple
of stronger storms. But I'm hoping that

629
00:56:40.960 --> 00:56:45.840
even that line will weaken as we'll
have a sphere weather outbreak today in northeast

630
00:56:45.880 --> 00:56:49.119
Texas and then through parts of the
South and again tomorrow and tomorrow night.

631
00:56:49.159 --> 00:56:52.800
But hopefully as that line gets in
our area, it does weaken as we

632
00:56:52.920 --> 00:56:57.760
approach Thursday, so hopefully we'll get
the rain out of here too. But

633
00:56:57.800 --> 00:57:00.000
as I said, looks damp at
least for a part of Thursday for the

634
00:57:00.039 --> 00:57:06.079
Masters and then for us here too, eventually getting some beautiful weather. We

635
00:57:06.079 --> 00:57:08.239
get past Thursday Thursday night, it
is going to be great for Friday,

636
00:57:08.440 --> 00:57:13.960
probably through Monday with a warming trend
too. Alrighty, hey, can you

637
00:57:14.000 --> 00:57:16.639
promise me something there? Yeah?
Go ahead. Can you not be one

638
00:57:16.679 --> 00:57:22.119
of these people that's gonna lose their
crap over the cicadas? Have you seen

639
00:57:22.239 --> 00:57:25.360
sitters or headlines? Have you seen
the eclipse? No? No, no,

640
00:57:25.360 --> 00:57:28.679
no, Now we're on to the
cicadas. Oh, we're moving on.

641
00:57:28.840 --> 00:57:30.519
Okay, right, you know now
we're onto that CBS. This is

642
00:57:30.599 --> 00:57:37.000
CBS News. Is actual headline.
You're ready, hyper sexual zombie cicadas that

643
00:57:37.039 --> 00:57:42.760
are infected with sexually transmitted fungus expected
to emerge this year. Boy, because

644
00:57:42.800 --> 00:57:45.239
this is a kind of crap.
Now, I'm not knocking on you guys,

645
00:57:45.280 --> 00:57:47.079
but this is the kind of ancillary
stuff that the Weather Channel kind of

646
00:57:47.119 --> 00:57:51.199
pick up because it's weather, but
it's not really weather, and I just

647
00:57:52.039 --> 00:57:53.880
CBS News. I mean, how
do you get more doomsday than a bunch

648
00:57:53.920 --> 00:57:59.199
of slutty cicadas with sps chasing after
you. Well, listen, you can

649
00:57:59.280 --> 00:58:01.760
knock on them. I do it
all the time. Yeah, so could

650
00:58:01.840 --> 00:58:06.519
you not? Can you not be
part of the CBS problem here A,

651
00:58:07.039 --> 00:58:07.840
I'm gonna put a note in.
I'll make sure that. All right,

652
00:58:08.159 --> 00:58:12.400
Well, they don't want the BRD
flu man, everyone's losing their damn minds.

653
00:58:12.440 --> 00:58:15.960
All right, thank you, sir
appreciated. Seven forty nine. Oh

654
00:58:15.000 --> 00:58:20.719
what if the cicadas, while getting
the whatever or transmitting whatever STD they have,

655
00:58:21.400 --> 00:58:28.920
are instead they get the Avian cow
crossover human flu thing. I'm telling

656
00:58:28.960 --> 00:58:35.880
you the journals would love it,
all right, seven forty nine Cacoday Radio

657
00:58:35.920 --> 00:58:43.000
program, Hang on, seven fifty
four KCO Day Radio program, And all

658
00:58:43.119 --> 00:58:50.639
right, prepare yourself to be shook. Everybody in a seated position. Make

659
00:58:50.679 --> 00:58:52.880
sure you got your balance, ross, you're gonna all right, Please prone

660
00:58:52.880 --> 00:58:58.559
yourself. Make sure everything's yeah,
no, dug a giant hole. That

661
00:58:58.760 --> 00:59:02.039
sounds safer, Yeah, absolutely,
and not like the first part of that

662
00:59:02.119 --> 00:59:06.519
horrible story with the kids at the
beach view last week. All right,

663
00:59:06.599 --> 00:59:12.840
So do you know who and Alexander
Demadenko I would say he is, but

664
00:59:13.239 --> 00:59:22.280
was mister Damidenko is a not a
fan of Vladimir Putin. In fact,

665
00:59:22.280 --> 00:59:29.519
Demadenko a Russian man who is has
been described and I'm not the one labeling

666
00:59:29.599 --> 00:59:37.039
this as the Russian shindler, and
I'll explain why. But basically, a

667
00:59:37.079 --> 00:59:42.480
man who reportedly since twenty twenty two, even though he had been in the

668
00:59:42.480 --> 00:59:50.840
good graces of Putin and the Kremlin, was found the invasion of Ukraine problematic

669
00:59:50.960 --> 00:59:57.519
and set out to help hundreds of
Ukrainians in Russia return home. So basically,

670
00:59:57.559 --> 01:00:02.360
these were Ukrainians that were living in
Russia upper And you know, when

671
01:00:02.760 --> 01:00:07.039
this first started, one of the
things that Putin's crews were doing as they

672
01:00:07.039 --> 01:00:08.519
were going, and they were wanting
to get a hold of all of them,

673
01:00:08.519 --> 01:00:12.280
claiming that, you know, spies
and whatnot, but also just to

674
01:00:12.320 --> 01:00:17.360
have the leverage. Well, the
activists who set out and openly pushed back

675
01:00:19.239 --> 01:00:25.079
on Putin had a little had a
little whoopsie yesterday, all right. So

676
01:00:25.159 --> 01:00:31.039
here's the series of events. So
basically, demon deenco is out there.

677
01:00:31.280 --> 01:00:35.920
He is he it's known what he's
doing. He's I don't know if he's

678
01:00:35.960 --> 01:00:42.039
quite oligarch, but dude's got some
got some bread and was openly like this

679
01:00:42.119 --> 01:00:45.119
is wrong. We're not going to
do this and that that put him on

680
01:00:45.119 --> 01:00:52.000
the radar of the Kremlin. Well, lo and behold here, just a

681
01:00:52.000 --> 01:00:59.599
few weeks ago he was caught attempting
to literally help cross back into Ukraine a

682
01:00:59.639 --> 01:01:02.840
bunch of Ukrainians who had been stuck
in Russia. All right, so they

683
01:01:02.880 --> 01:01:08.679
take him into custody. He reportedly
served ten days, was released with a

684
01:01:08.760 --> 01:01:13.159
judge saying, you know, these
charges seem a little trumped up here.

685
01:01:13.159 --> 01:01:15.960
I don't know what's up. And
he received a phone call saying, if

686
01:01:15.960 --> 01:01:19.760
you wonder if you leave the country, it's going to be worse, following

687
01:01:19.800 --> 01:01:24.320
which officers with the FSB showed up
that night and lo and behold, when

688
01:01:24.320 --> 01:01:30.559
they searched his house, the dude
had hand grenades everywhere. Now he says,

689
01:01:30.639 --> 01:01:34.559
he doesn't have any hand grenades in
the Russian military hand grenades and it

690
01:01:34.599 --> 01:01:38.360
was a plot, but now it's
too late. He was then immediately returned

691
01:01:38.360 --> 01:01:43.599
to prison. They then changed the
judge, but unfortunately he will not face

692
01:01:43.639 --> 01:01:47.679
his day in court. After an
authority say as, he was returned back

693
01:01:47.719 --> 01:01:59.039
to the gulag. Unfortunately, he
was in an elevated cell and fell to

694
01:01:59.159 --> 01:02:02.199
his death. Magic Series of events. Yeah, it's bad. Now,

695
01:02:02.280 --> 01:02:06.639
Like whenever you hear you know,
as an American, right at least for

696
01:02:06.679 --> 01:02:09.480
myself, whenever I hear a random
Russian name that I've never heard of before,

697
01:02:09.559 --> 01:02:13.159
but you say it's a story.
I just assumed they fell out a

698
01:02:13.159 --> 01:02:15.800
window. Yeah, well, I
don't know if it was a window.

699
01:02:15.920 --> 01:02:20.599
Maybe been a roof here, So
I guess our boots on the ground there,

700
01:02:20.639 --> 01:02:23.280
You know him as a senator Ted
Budd He joins us this morning,

701
01:02:23.360 --> 01:02:29.119
How you doing, sir? Doing
great? I I is it though,

702
01:02:29.119 --> 01:02:35.199
because now I just realized I used
a turn of speech that has military over

703
01:02:35.440 --> 01:02:37.920
overtones, So now you probably don't
want to be associated with me. They're

704
01:02:37.960 --> 01:02:43.079
coming after me. So oh,
boots on the ground, man, dude,

705
01:02:43.079 --> 01:02:46.719
We're gonna the level of crazy gas
lighting that that is going on up

706
01:02:46.719 --> 01:02:49.840
there, and I'm gonna get to
it here in just a minute. With

707
01:02:49.880 --> 01:02:55.039
Adam Shift's little thing yesterday. Like
I don't I don't know how you work

708
01:02:55.119 --> 01:03:00.079
through I Like, I don't know
how somebody expects you to work with somebody

709
01:03:00.159 --> 01:03:04.159
like that, as bad as that
sounds. And I know from time to

710
01:03:04.199 --> 01:03:09.440
time, like you know, some
lawmakers who may spit fire on the floor

711
01:03:09.480 --> 01:03:14.599
of the House or the Senate will
also find themselves doing lunch, which is

712
01:03:14.679 --> 01:03:19.360
a thing that people have to wrap
their head around. But watching the freak

713
01:03:19.400 --> 01:03:22.800
out over Cash Pattel, watching the
idea that he may be one of the

714
01:03:22.840 --> 01:03:29.400
attorney general picks for Trump maybe and
what he feels needs to happen with the

715
01:03:29.480 --> 01:03:35.440
DOJ created a lot of consternation on
MSNBC and CNN last night because they claim

716
01:03:35.519 --> 01:03:40.039
Republicans when a weaponize the DOJ.
But also it has me sitting there going,

717
01:03:40.079 --> 01:03:44.800
look, weaponizing the DJ is wrong. I don't care who does it,

718
01:03:45.360 --> 01:03:49.039
and then callers calling in and telling
me I'm a coward for not going,

719
01:03:49.079 --> 01:03:51.920
Hey, they started it, let's
finish it. So I'm just curious

720
01:03:51.960 --> 01:03:55.079
where your head's at because none of
this, none of this sounds good,

721
01:03:55.159 --> 01:03:59.840
but some of it sounds satisfying.
Senator No. You know, you look

722
01:03:59.840 --> 01:04:03.599
at see it in MSNBC, and
that's a great litmus test to know if

723
01:04:03.599 --> 01:04:08.880
they're fired up about something, if
they're going apoplectic, we're probably doing the

724
01:04:08.960 --> 01:04:12.679
right thing. So, I mean, you don't want to definitely take their

725
01:04:12.719 --> 01:04:15.400
opinions, but if we're for pissing
them off, then we're probably in a

726
01:04:15.400 --> 01:04:19.559
good place. But generally, whether
it's the DEM's being upset about DJ and

727
01:04:19.599 --> 01:04:24.639
these claims and weaponization, whatever they're
claiming we're doing, that's actually what they're

728
01:04:24.639 --> 01:04:29.039
doing right now. I mean the
whole gas lighting, the weaponization of government,

729
01:04:29.119 --> 01:04:31.079
all that stuff. Look, that's
what they've been doing for decades,

730
01:04:31.119 --> 01:04:34.480
and finally people are waking up to
it, and they're trying to scramble for

731
01:04:34.559 --> 01:04:39.199
a response because they realize whether it's
a red state or whether it's a blue

732
01:04:39.199 --> 01:04:42.679
state or blue cities, people are
ticked off. And I think the big

733
01:04:42.719 --> 01:04:45.760
reconing is coming in November. Yeah, and here's where I get cynical on

734
01:04:45.880 --> 01:04:49.320
this, Like, strategically, if
i'm you, or not just you,

735
01:04:49.440 --> 01:04:54.280
but I'm a Republican elected official up
there, the last thing I want to

736
01:04:54.280 --> 01:04:57.840
do is solve this thing before November. That's how cynical I am on all

737
01:04:57.880 --> 01:05:00.639
of this stuff. So like,
yeah, look, I get the politics

738
01:05:00.639 --> 01:05:03.400
of that. You want the problem
to be out there so that people are

739
01:05:03.440 --> 01:05:05.960
ticked and they go to the poll. But look, that's not why they

740
01:05:06.000 --> 01:05:10.000
sent me here. Look I get
that they sent me here to fix it

741
01:05:10.079 --> 01:05:13.199
yesterday, and so we got to
I mean, we're working on the border

742
01:05:13.239 --> 01:05:16.000
now, we're trying to solve you
know, give Israel what they need.

743
01:05:16.039 --> 01:05:19.440
Now, these aren't problems that you
want to just linger out there. So

744
01:05:19.440 --> 01:05:24.199
people show up at the polls.
Now, whether Biden who is Look,

745
01:05:24.239 --> 01:05:27.960
he's got Schumer in charge of the
Senate, he's got the administration, he

746
01:05:28.079 --> 01:05:30.000
is the president. So that's two
out of three. You got a very

747
01:05:30.000 --> 01:05:33.360
thin majority in the House. So
these problems are very likely. I mean,

748
01:05:33.400 --> 01:05:35.719
just looking at the numbers, they're
going to be there. But we

749
01:05:35.840 --> 01:05:39.840
have to fight no matter how many
numbers we have, whether we're in the

750
01:05:39.880 --> 01:05:42.639
majority, whether we're in the minority. You have to do the right thing

751
01:05:42.800 --> 01:05:46.360
that people sent you to Washington for. Let me ask you two questions on

752
01:05:46.400 --> 01:05:51.199
that front. Do you think in
your opinion, and maybe you just have

753
01:05:51.320 --> 01:05:56.679
to best guess, because obviously there's
processor's due process, do you, as

754
01:05:56.719 --> 01:05:59.880
a sitting member of the US Senate, do you think that there are people

755
01:06:00.039 --> 01:06:04.519
within the DOJ, within the swamp, if you will, that have committed

756
01:06:05.239 --> 01:06:12.920
things that rise to criminal levels and
continue to I guess currently be unpunished.

757
01:06:12.920 --> 01:06:15.400
Do you believe that in your heart
of hearts, do you think that there

758
01:06:15.400 --> 01:06:18.639
are people that frankly should face a
jury. Well, let's look at the

759
01:06:18.679 --> 01:06:21.840
law of large numbers. I mean, these are big organizations, way bigger

760
01:06:21.880 --> 01:06:26.039
than they should be, so it's
criminal in the size that they are,

761
01:06:26.119 --> 01:06:29.400
so they need to not be as
big. They got departments that don't even

762
01:06:29.480 --> 01:06:31.480
need to exist. I'm not saying
get rid of the DOJ, but I'm

763
01:06:31.480 --> 01:06:36.360
saying it needs a good thinning and
reorganization. So when you have a law

764
01:06:36.400 --> 01:06:40.400
of large numbers and that many people
the answers, absolutely are there going to

765
01:06:40.440 --> 01:06:44.760
be people there that have done things
wrong for sure, Like those who are

766
01:06:44.760 --> 01:06:47.760
on the judiciary committees can probably name
names. I'm not on that committee,

767
01:06:47.760 --> 01:06:53.400
but I know there are major problems
in people that they think that they are

768
01:06:53.440 --> 01:06:56.360
doing the right thing when they wake
up, but by golly, because of

769
01:06:56.800 --> 01:07:00.800
complete wrong world views that they've adopted
for probably decades of their lives, they're

770
01:07:00.920 --> 01:07:05.119
just wrong. And it's probably illegal
and unconstitutional as well. And you know,

771
01:07:05.159 --> 01:07:09.800
the apparatus for that, as we've
seen in some instances with may Orcus,

772
01:07:10.000 --> 01:07:14.440
is an impeachment process. I wonder
if we other than like in a

773
01:07:14.559 --> 01:07:17.199
sporting way, like your team scored
a touchdown, kind of raw raw.

774
01:07:17.239 --> 01:07:23.239
I don't know that people take that
process seriously anymore. And that's also partially

775
01:07:23.320 --> 01:07:27.719
due to what we saw with Trump. So let's talk about that effort with

776
01:07:27.880 --> 01:07:31.599
may Orcus. So there's others out
there. What's going on with what did

777
01:07:31.639 --> 01:07:36.280
I who? The Attorney General is
not turning over some documents to a committee

778
01:07:36.480 --> 01:07:40.320
where where well yeah, with this, yeah, I'd said, let's go

779
01:07:40.400 --> 01:07:43.480
back to the may Orcus thing.
We haven't scored a touchdown, but we

780
01:07:43.599 --> 01:07:45.880
have been given the ball. And
that's what happens right now. It's sort

781
01:07:45.880 --> 01:07:49.519
of halftime right now, it has
been halftime for two months. The House

782
01:07:49.599 --> 01:07:55.559
is handing over the ball to us
tomorrow when these articles of impeachment gets sent

783
01:07:55.599 --> 01:07:58.760
over, what you're going to You're
going to try to see Schumer grab the

784
01:07:58.800 --> 01:08:00.639
ball and then run it up in
the stands and out into the parking lot.

785
01:08:00.840 --> 01:08:03.719
He's going to try to table the
motion, not even have a trial

786
01:08:03.760 --> 01:08:09.079
at all. There's been about eighteen
to twenty one articles of impeachment that have

787
01:08:09.159 --> 01:08:13.119
been sent over in the history of
our country. All of them have resulted

788
01:08:13.239 --> 01:08:15.079
in some form of a trial.
They've never been tabled before. And he's

789
01:08:15.119 --> 01:08:18.159
going to try to do something never
happened in our nearly two hundred and fifty

790
01:08:18.239 --> 01:08:21.680
years of history and not even have
a trial. And we'll see what happens

791
01:08:21.720 --> 01:08:25.920
Wednesday. So we're going to do
every motion we can to make sure that

792
01:08:25.960 --> 01:08:29.039
we have a trial. Will we
win, Will all Republicans, Will the

793
01:08:29.119 --> 01:08:31.640
Murkowskis stick together, will the Romneys? I have no idea, but there's

794
01:08:31.680 --> 01:08:35.560
a great case that he Look,
he has falsely testified to Congress that the

795
01:08:35.600 --> 01:08:41.479
border is secure, and he has
wilfully and systemically refused to comply with current

796
01:08:41.560 --> 01:08:45.359
law. I mean, that's the
current charges of the impeachment, and there's

797
01:08:45.359 --> 01:08:47.479
tons of detail under that. So
we need to get this to trial and

798
01:08:47.479 --> 01:08:51.600
see if we can actually score a
touchdown for the American people. But the

799
01:08:51.680 --> 01:08:56.119
process correct me. If I'm Ryan
and you know me, I'm just so

800
01:08:56.279 --> 01:08:59.000
negative and I just bring it,
you'd probably bring you down when you're here.

801
01:08:59.079 --> 01:09:01.319
But I guess work in case,
because you're still you still got a

802
01:09:01.359 --> 01:09:04.439
show in a great audience. Yeah, well that's because they can't figure out

803
01:09:04.439 --> 01:09:09.199
how to fire me or something.
But no, but like, okay,

804
01:09:09.279 --> 01:09:13.119
so you purge me orcus I just
assumed that. Then they put some other

805
01:09:13.199 --> 01:09:18.039
dumpster fire in there, like does
do you think if the unexpected happens and

806
01:09:18.079 --> 01:09:21.359
somehow you get the Senate vote.
I mean, it's not probably not going

807
01:09:21.439 --> 01:09:25.720
to happen with the math, but
at the very least, do you think

808
01:09:25.760 --> 01:09:29.640
that if he is pushed out of
there, even if it's just through resignation,

809
01:09:29.800 --> 01:09:34.079
that the Biden administration puts a more
serious person in there recognizing the crisis,

810
01:09:34.159 --> 01:09:38.840
or they double down on the it's
all your fault. Just from what

811
01:09:38.880 --> 01:09:41.239
I've seen over the past three and
a half years, they double down.

812
01:09:42.279 --> 01:09:45.079
I really think like their worldview does
not allow him to solve the problems that

813
01:09:45.119 --> 01:09:49.199
the American people are asking us to
solve. Whether it's energy problem, you

814
01:09:49.239 --> 01:09:51.840
know, or gas at the pump, whether it's grocery stores. All they

815
01:09:51.840 --> 01:09:56.199
want to do is put in more
laws, more mandates to solve these problems,

816
01:09:56.239 --> 01:09:58.720
and that's not what we need.
He needs less government, not more

817
01:09:58.760 --> 01:10:01.880
to solve these problems. But when
it comes to enforcement of existing laws,

818
01:10:01.960 --> 01:10:08.119
they don't want to do that unless
it just hurts the American people. So

819
01:10:08.359 --> 01:10:12.199
I just think that their worldview does
not allow them to solve this problem at

820
01:10:12.239 --> 01:10:15.760
the border or whether it's at the
gas pop. I mean, it's complete

821
01:10:15.319 --> 01:10:19.840
dysfunction up there for things that work
for America. Well, obviously they have

822
01:10:19.880 --> 01:10:24.359
an opposition of the gas pump prices. That's why they just decided not to

823
01:10:24.399 --> 01:10:29.359
refill the oil reserve. So I
mean it's it's like, okay, so

824
01:10:29.479 --> 01:10:32.000
you recognize there is a problem when
it's you're pumping your tank, so to

825
01:10:32.039 --> 01:10:35.279
speak, but not us all right. Second question, Senator I said I

826
01:10:35.319 --> 01:10:40.039
had two. Do you think,
and this will be a crossover, do

827
01:10:40.079 --> 01:10:45.720
you think that there were individuals who
abuse the PISA process? And I think

828
01:10:45.760 --> 01:10:51.119
the biggest example in most people's minds
is where one Yahoo News article based on

829
01:10:51.119 --> 01:10:58.760
one dots the two were independently treated
as double sourcing for the purpose of issuing

830
01:10:58.800 --> 01:11:04.119
PISA warrants on Trump officials within the
campaign. Do you believe that people did

831
01:11:04.159 --> 01:11:10.479
abuse it and that something needs to
be done prosecutorial or from a law change

832
01:11:10.479 --> 01:11:15.399
standpoint? Where do you stand on
FIZA with now this renewal being in the

833
01:11:15.439 --> 01:11:18.760
news. So the bottom line for
your question is absolutely it has been abused

834
01:11:19.119 --> 01:11:21.039
and it is a good tool.
That's why I mean, I think you

835
01:11:21.119 --> 01:11:24.800
mentioned baby with the bathwater. You
don't want to throw it all out.

836
01:11:24.880 --> 01:11:29.199
It is a good tool that has
unfortunately been abused. I mean, they've

837
01:11:29.279 --> 01:11:31.680
used a hammer to hit the wrong
thing, are the wrong people, and

838
01:11:31.720 --> 01:11:36.359
they've you know, what we need
are safeguards, the safeguards at seven or

839
01:11:36.359 --> 01:11:41.399
two to protect innocent Americans. We
need to use it to counter our enemies

840
01:11:41.439 --> 01:11:45.439
abroad. We've used it to help
stop terrorist attacks in the United States.

841
01:11:45.439 --> 01:11:49.239
We've used it to stop peel presses
coming in and fentanyl precursors and chemicals coming

842
01:11:49.279 --> 01:11:53.199
from China to Mexico. But at
the same time, it's you know,

843
01:11:53.600 --> 01:11:56.439
and we use it to gather intelligence
on China, Russia, and the Mexican

844
01:11:56.560 --> 01:12:00.640
drug cartels. But I've got huge
concerns about uses of seven or two by

845
01:12:00.640 --> 01:12:04.000
the FBI, and it has got
to be reformed. That's why you just

846
01:12:04.000 --> 01:12:06.520
don't want to rubber stamp it as
it is. You need to bring it

847
01:12:06.600 --> 01:12:12.640
up and we need to start amending
it with things that solve the problems that

848
01:12:12.680 --> 01:12:16.399
we've had over the last several years
of abuses. Okay, And like I

849
01:12:17.279 --> 01:12:20.119
agree with you, and I think
that there are others who share that opinion.

850
01:12:20.159 --> 01:12:25.399
But it looks very business as usual
with what's going on at least on

851
01:12:25.439 --> 01:12:28.119
the House side. Is there going
to be an opportunity for you guys to

852
01:12:28.119 --> 01:12:30.720
make some waves at the Senate side
saying, hey, you can't just put

853
01:12:30.760 --> 01:12:34.000
this in as is, we need
to fix it, or or how does

854
01:12:34.159 --> 01:12:38.399
how does the process work? Well, let's look at the you know,

855
01:12:38.520 --> 01:12:41.560
back to the numbers game. You've
got a one vote majority giver or take

856
01:12:41.640 --> 01:12:44.000
in the House. Out of a
body of four point thirty five, it

857
01:12:44.000 --> 01:12:45.439
takes two to eighteen to have a
majority, and you've barely got that.

858
01:12:46.039 --> 01:12:49.319
The great thing about US Republicans is
that we're very independent. The horrible thing

859
01:12:49.359 --> 01:12:55.079
about US Republicans sometimes we're way too
independent, so we don't always stick together.

860
01:12:55.479 --> 01:12:58.520
So you're going to have some straying, and I think this doesn't cut

861
01:12:58.560 --> 01:13:03.039
clean the around party lines. You've
got some privacy advocates on the Democrat side,

862
01:13:03.039 --> 01:13:06.800
and you've got a lot of privacy
advocates on the Republican side. So

863
01:13:06.840 --> 01:13:11.199
I think we're going to see some
reforms. And then you've got people that

864
01:13:11.279 --> 01:13:14.600
want to completely throw it out.
I don't think that's workable to throw it

865
01:13:14.640 --> 01:13:18.239
out. What you don't want to
do is put Mike Johnson in jeopardy as

866
01:13:18.239 --> 01:13:25.920
he navigates through some very precarious political
times right now. So I think we're

867
01:13:25.920 --> 01:13:29.000
going to see it come up because
it expires on the eighteenth or nineteenth of

868
01:13:29.079 --> 01:13:31.159
this month, So we've got to
deal with it this week or next,

869
01:13:31.560 --> 01:13:34.880
and then I think you're going to
see some of those amendments get worked through

870
01:13:35.000 --> 01:13:38.880
over here in the Senate. So
it remains to be seen. But I

871
01:13:38.880 --> 01:13:41.439
don't think it's going to be rubber
stamped as it is. I think that's

872
01:13:41.520 --> 01:13:46.239
unworkable. Now. Obviously, yesterday
you had the eclipse. I don't know

873
01:13:46.279 --> 01:13:49.359
were you in DC, were you
in North Carolina? I was on an

874
01:13:49.399 --> 01:13:56.119
airplane on like row fifteen in the
aisle, you know, so it didn't

875
01:13:56.119 --> 01:14:00.319
have much of a view. Oh
okay, but is that a that's an

876
01:14:00.319 --> 01:14:02.159
exit row, wasn't it. Yeah? I don't think it was on this

877
01:14:02.279 --> 01:14:05.239
plane. Yeah, you know,
if that door had popped off, I

878
01:14:05.239 --> 01:14:09.800
would have had a really good view. I mean, yeah, that or

879
01:14:09.920 --> 01:14:14.680
it you know that or the engine
cover so everyone's glued against the windows like

880
01:14:14.760 --> 01:14:17.399
on the Southwest flight. You know. Let me ask anyway, Yeah,

881
01:14:17.439 --> 01:14:20.319
let me ask you a question actually, because I think this this does cross

882
01:14:20.359 --> 01:14:25.640
over some of your committee stuff I
had. Let me let me say this,

883
01:14:25.840 --> 01:14:30.079
I have an affinity for Boeing.
My grandfather worked for Boeing on my

884
01:14:30.199 --> 01:14:35.279
mother's side, and you know we
he was I remember as a kid he

885
01:14:35.359 --> 01:14:39.079
used to get me like the little
models and stuff from both I was super

886
01:14:39.079 --> 01:14:43.399
excited about it. So I have
that affinity just from a family standpoint.

887
01:14:43.399 --> 01:14:46.039
But I can't help but you know, watch what's going on with all of

888
01:14:46.079 --> 01:14:51.119
this stuff post Alaska Airlines flight.
They didn't put bolts in. It wasn't

889
01:14:51.119 --> 01:14:56.399
even in the safety manual, this
thing that apparently was violated. And I'm

890
01:14:56.399 --> 01:14:59.560
sitting there looking at it, and
I have to ask myself, because I've

891
01:14:59.560 --> 01:15:02.079
been in this business enough. Is
this the summer of the Shark where you

892
01:15:02.119 --> 01:15:05.560
know, at the end the you
would have thought Jaws ran rampant, but

893
01:15:05.600 --> 01:15:11.199
in reality it was the same number. Because some aviation officials say, look,

894
01:15:11.279 --> 01:15:15.680
this is these things happen. And
anyone who fliving on a flight where

895
01:15:15.720 --> 01:15:18.279
the front tires blew out and they
fifty to fifty we were going to land

896
01:15:18.319 --> 01:15:21.399
on a stick, right, and
so we were doing the whole brace brace.

897
01:15:21.479 --> 01:15:26.960
So is this being elevated by the
media or do we have really big

898
01:15:27.000 --> 01:15:31.239
problems with Boeing that might need God
forbid government to stick their nose in it.

899
01:15:32.279 --> 01:15:34.399
Yeah, I think it's some of
both. One, it's a recency

900
01:15:34.399 --> 01:15:38.319
effect. It is newsworthy, and
you know, you don't hear about all

901
01:15:38.359 --> 01:15:41.199
the planes that made it safely,
and you just hear about the ones with

902
01:15:41.279 --> 01:15:43.680
problems. And so I think it
is you know, you don't hear about

903
01:15:43.680 --> 01:15:45.720
all the people that swam safely on
the beach. You hear about the ones

904
01:15:45.760 --> 01:15:49.359
that you know, I had a
shark incident somewhere around our country of three

905
01:15:49.399 --> 01:15:53.479
hundred and some million people. So
I think there is some of that.

906
01:15:53.479 --> 01:15:57.720
That's a cognitive bias. That's the
recency effect. So I think we're we're

907
01:15:57.720 --> 01:16:00.520
hearing a lot more of these and
that's whether they're large or small. You're

908
01:16:00.560 --> 01:16:05.119
going to hear about anything regarding an
airplane right now, and there's millions of

909
01:16:05.159 --> 01:16:10.520
miles flown in relatively short periods of
times, thousands of lights every day.

910
01:16:11.439 --> 01:16:15.760
But when you do hear about something, you're it's definitely front of mind right

911
01:16:15.800 --> 01:16:19.239
now. But I think there's but
also, look, I don't want to

912
01:16:19.239 --> 01:16:24.560
be dismissive. There are some problems
in there that have accumulated over the years,

913
01:16:24.680 --> 01:16:29.520
and they got very very complex supply
chains. For instance, in Kinston,

914
01:16:29.560 --> 01:16:32.079
North Carolina, there's a great company, spirit Eraw that makes actually the

915
01:16:32.159 --> 01:16:36.479
air bus fuselage and so that gets
shipped, you know, around the world

916
01:16:36.520 --> 01:16:42.520
and so these but Spirit Air Arrow
in a different place, in a different

917
01:16:42.520 --> 01:16:47.279
factory actually makes fuselages for Boeing.
That was Spirit Arrow was related to the

918
01:16:47.319 --> 01:16:51.680
Alaskan Airways. But somewhere in that
chain you got to figure out who's responsible.

919
01:16:51.720 --> 01:16:55.680
But it's not like it's a big
factory. Then all of it is

920
01:16:55.720 --> 01:16:59.960
done in one place, but ultimately, when Boeing delivers the plane, they're

921
01:17:00.119 --> 01:17:03.359
responsible for it, and then when
the Laska Airline takes it or whatever airline,

922
01:17:03.399 --> 01:17:08.640
they're responsible for it at that point. And ultimately it comes up responsible

923
01:17:08.680 --> 01:17:11.479
for the pilot and command that it's
a safe aircraft. So there's a lot

924
01:17:11.479 --> 01:17:15.079
of responsibility at different periods of time, including in the manufacturing process. But

925
01:17:15.479 --> 01:17:19.399
they will work this out. But
I would say, let's be cognitive of

926
01:17:19.439 --> 01:17:24.760
our own minds and how we look
at recent incidents like this, and it's

927
01:17:24.960 --> 01:17:28.600
marks you know, it's safe,
and it's probably safer than going on a

928
01:17:28.680 --> 01:17:31.079
ride at the fair. Yeah,
well, I mean, obviously we've got

929
01:17:31.119 --> 01:17:33.520
history here in North Carolina. All
right, minute and a half. Last

930
01:17:33.600 --> 01:17:41.079
question. This is an actual headline
Senator from CBS News hyper sexual zombie cicadas

931
01:17:41.199 --> 01:17:45.760
infected with sexually transmitted fungus expected to
emerge. So they're full freak out on

932
01:17:45.800 --> 01:17:50.279
that. You couple it with the
Avian cow crossover human discussion, and people

933
01:17:50.359 --> 01:17:55.479
start getting the you know, the
goosebumps up, like, oh man,

934
01:17:55.840 --> 01:17:58.000
like are we going to have health
experts? Are we going to do the

935
01:17:58.039 --> 01:18:00.239
COVID thing all again? How do
you and sure that even if there is

936
01:18:00.279 --> 01:18:04.079
some concerns out there that you guys
don't lose your mind again as a government,

937
01:18:04.159 --> 01:18:08.119
not just you specifically, but how
do we not do this all over

938
01:18:08.119 --> 01:18:11.600
again when they've got two different things
they're freaking out over one minute go ahead

939
01:18:12.439 --> 01:18:14.520
for Yeah, First of all,
you don't want a government grant or a

940
01:18:14.520 --> 01:18:17.199
college study on this funded by US
taxpayers. That sounds like something that they

941
01:18:17.239 --> 01:18:20.159
would do. The other is,
you want to win the majorities in the

942
01:18:20.159 --> 01:18:23.640
House, get a bigger majority.
You want to win the majority in the

943
01:18:23.680 --> 01:18:27.079
Senate. You want the president and
his administration. That way, you're at

944
01:18:27.079 --> 01:18:31.880
the president's administration. You don't have
you don't have bad ideas getting into regulation.

945
01:18:32.199 --> 01:18:34.720
If you have the Senate and you
have the House, you can surface

946
01:18:34.760 --> 01:18:40.279
the hearings of bad ideas and expose
these things. And that's why it's so

947
01:18:40.359 --> 01:18:44.000
important to have the House and to
have the Senate majorities, so that you

948
01:18:44.039 --> 01:18:48.000
can expose the bad ideas of the
left and hold government accountable. Well we'll

949
01:18:48.000 --> 01:18:50.960
see, but if they're going to
try to lock us down with slutty cicadas,

950
01:18:51.000 --> 01:18:54.720
I'm going to lose my mind.
So Senator, I appreciate it.

951
01:18:54.920 --> 01:18:58.760
Thank you very much. Sand We'll
talk soon. Okay, great, thanks,

952
01:18:59.479 --> 01:19:00.479
Watch out for the cicadas. Man. All right, we got to

953
01:19:00.479 --> 01:19:04.319
go to break. We'll be right
back. Hang on KCO Day radio program.

954
01:19:04.960 --> 01:19:11.039
Wait hold on, let me read
this email from Alexandra, who listens

955
01:19:11.039 --> 01:19:13.239
to the show. Says, Hey, I like the show, even like

956
01:19:13.279 --> 01:19:17.640
the silliness, but I don't understand
it when you're interviewing somebody with a h

957
01:19:19.000 --> 01:19:23.560
I don't know what you mean by
that man, basically somebody who's a muckety

958
01:19:23.640 --> 01:19:30.039
muck. But because it's how we
do things around here, and sometimes it

959
01:19:30.039 --> 01:19:35.600
can be a little disarming too.
When you're also talking about a serious thing.

960
01:19:35.640 --> 01:19:40.279
So I'm assuming you're referencing the cicadas. And here's the deal. While

961
01:19:40.279 --> 01:19:46.399
the CBS news headline is peak stupid, hyper sexual zombie cicadas, their infected

962
01:19:46.520 --> 01:19:53.439
was actually transmitted fungus, right,
Like that's a well, maybe technically accurate,

963
01:19:53.520 --> 01:19:59.079
it's just it's also crazy dumb.
And then you couple that with some

964
01:19:59.159 --> 01:20:04.159
of the discussions that I've seen with
avian avian flu concerns, and this year's

965
01:20:04.199 --> 01:20:11.039
batch could be one hundred times worse
than COVID. And I asked these things

966
01:20:12.399 --> 01:20:16.039
not I asked these things not purely
just to be able to crack jokes on

967
01:20:16.079 --> 01:20:20.920
CBS's headline, but if you listen
to the substance of the question, more

968
01:20:21.000 --> 01:20:26.319
so on the avian flu side.
But I have not, and I don't

969
01:20:26.319 --> 01:20:35.880
think many people have have heard a
satisfactory explanation, promise, apology comments on

970
01:20:36.039 --> 01:20:44.920
things we've learned that I feel that
even today's crop of politicians wouldn't probably do

971
01:20:45.000 --> 01:20:50.119
a lot of the same stuff they
did during COVID. So yeah, that's

972
01:20:50.119 --> 01:20:55.359
why I'm asking it. That's why
we're asking it like that. And if

973
01:20:55.399 --> 01:21:00.960
you don't think that there are people
who are salivating to be able to just

974
01:21:00.279 --> 01:21:03.159
remember, these are folks who run
around most days going, man, you

975
01:21:03.159 --> 01:21:06.520
know, if we just got this
socialism right in the minds of some of

976
01:21:06.520 --> 01:21:16.199
the true control freaks during this who
whose ego won't allow them to admit that

977
01:21:16.279 --> 01:21:24.000
they screwed up, even when we
were adjusting juvenile COVID numbers yesterday, even

978
01:21:24.119 --> 01:21:32.439
when the learning loss of kids and
the actual safety within a school setting,

979
01:21:32.479 --> 01:21:36.439
while all of these things proved to
move in the direction of people who were

980
01:21:36.479 --> 01:21:42.399
critical with the decision the governments were
making. Many of these leaders will never

981
01:21:42.479 --> 01:21:45.960
admit that they were wrong, or
the very least they'll know they're wrong,

982
01:21:46.079 --> 01:21:50.680
but will also bow to pressures from
special interest groups. And by the way,

983
01:21:50.760 --> 01:21:55.279
that's on both sides. So yeah, I'm gonna ask that question.

984
01:21:55.920 --> 01:21:59.439
And you know, one of the
things that the Senator said is he said,

985
01:21:59.439 --> 01:22:00.800
you know, we have to president
there is not going to do this

986
01:22:01.479 --> 01:22:08.239
well. And I hope that's because
Trump learned, because Trump was not immune.

987
01:22:08.359 --> 01:22:10.920
Remember he was the one who stood
up there with the you know,

988
01:22:11.000 --> 01:22:18.239
the two weeks or fifteen days to
slow the spread. So yeah, yeah,

989
01:22:18.279 --> 01:22:24.279
I'm gonna ask that stuff. Okay, but I look, your email

990
01:22:24.319 --> 01:22:30.520
wasn't nasty, but understand the method
to my madness. Also, you know,

991
01:22:30.640 --> 01:22:34.079
the CNN thing's so stupid, everyone
should know about it, so I

992
01:22:34.119 --> 01:22:38.239
just thought i'd pass it along,
all right, anyway eight eight eight nine

993
01:22:38.319 --> 01:22:45.720
three four seven eight seven four All
right, let me get over to this.

994
01:22:47.720 --> 01:22:54.399
Yeah, a couple Oregon stories.
So you probably know by now that

995
01:22:54.520 --> 01:23:03.000
the one point three billion dollar jackpod, which was a a single ticket was

996
01:23:03.039 --> 01:23:10.479
sold in Portland, orgon the single
ticket match in all six numbers, along

997
01:23:10.520 --> 01:23:13.840
with the you know, the powerball
obviously one point three two six. I

998
01:23:13.880 --> 01:23:15.319
don't know what that is if you
take the payout and everything, but it's

999
01:23:15.359 --> 01:23:23.760
a crap ton of money. But
here's the headline. A mystery power ball

1000
01:23:23.760 --> 01:23:28.119
player in Oregon who won the staggering
jackpot is still yet to come forward.

1001
01:23:28.119 --> 01:23:30.720
Now, they got a year to
do it. And when you're talking about

1002
01:23:30.199 --> 01:23:39.159
money that big, if you're doing
this responsibly, we shouldn't see your face

1003
01:23:39.199 --> 01:23:41.399
for a little while. You got
to get you got to get stuff in

1004
01:23:41.520 --> 01:23:45.880
order, right, You got to
get you pretty much. You got to

1005
01:23:45.920 --> 01:23:50.920
protect yourself, right because the moment
it's announced, everyone you've ever known,

1006
01:23:50.960 --> 01:23:55.840
everyone you've ever walked past on the
streets is going to be up in your

1007
01:23:55.880 --> 01:24:00.199
grill and people. And they're also
very very high, high level scammers.

1008
01:24:00.600 --> 01:24:03.159
You know, these are these are
the folks that they wait for in the

1009
01:24:03.159 --> 01:24:09.720
newspaper to try to stick their nose
in. So yeah, but also I

1010
01:24:09.760 --> 01:24:13.119
didn't realize it was Portland. Just
when I heard it was in North Carolina,

1011
01:24:13.119 --> 01:24:20.600
I didn't care. So so okay, I what moon bat do you

1012
01:24:20.600 --> 01:24:25.399
think won this thing? That's my
big That's what I'm more worried about.

1013
01:24:25.439 --> 01:24:29.279
Like, can you imagine they're gonna
idiot but I'm sorry you then they're gonna

1014
01:24:29.279 --> 01:24:32.359
invest in like a like a super
duper high tech jazz chopped area. That's

1015
01:24:32.399 --> 01:24:34.279
what I'm like, dude, That's
what I'm sitting there, Like, what

1016
01:24:34.319 --> 01:24:38.800
if one of these Antifa idiots won, right, and they're like sure,

1017
01:24:38.880 --> 01:24:42.520
yeah, yeah, we're gonna do
this, but we have a force field

1018
01:24:42.520 --> 01:24:45.199
because you know, they got a
little bit of a budget to work with.

1019
01:24:45.319 --> 01:24:47.760
Surely they would give them money away. Sure do you do you think?

1020
01:24:47.880 --> 01:24:51.960
I mean, surely if the communist
won the billion dollar jackpot, they'd

1021
01:24:51.960 --> 01:24:55.720
give it away to the people,
right, sure? Can you can you

1022
01:24:55.760 --> 01:25:00.880
imagine the level of dumb assy that
three quarters of a billion or what this

1023
01:25:00.920 --> 01:25:04.800
thing is post taxes. Remember when
they were trying to build the garden with

1024
01:25:04.880 --> 01:25:09.079
the dirt on the gard they just
put down the cardboard in the concrete and

1025
01:25:09.079 --> 01:25:11.319
they poured like one level of dirt
on it. And yeah, yeah,

1026
01:25:11.399 --> 01:25:15.199
I remember, I believe we had
and remember it was it was a non

1027
01:25:15.239 --> 01:25:17.760
whites garden, right, don't forget
Yeah, you're right, yeah, yeah,

1028
01:25:17.800 --> 01:25:20.920
yeah, so yeah, he can
have all the racist gardens they want

1029
01:25:21.000 --> 01:25:27.600
now they can. Can you imagine
the Portland police show up and it's like

1030
01:25:27.720 --> 01:25:30.159
they're trying to take the courthouse again. They're like, oh, not this

1031
01:25:30.199 --> 01:25:32.960
crap again. They show up and
it's just them and then Blackwater standing there.

1032
01:25:36.680 --> 01:25:42.159
Oh my gosh. They hired mercenaries, right, all right, Antifa

1033
01:25:42.560 --> 01:25:46.880
but with the A team. Huh
dude, that can you imagine? That'd

1034
01:25:46.920 --> 01:25:51.119
be the saddest thing ever if that
van went to Antifa. Be so sad.

1035
01:25:51.520 --> 01:25:55.520
Yeah. The last time I saw
an Antifa van, and I'm at

1036
01:25:55.520 --> 01:25:58.880
an anarchist van was in Minneapolis and
they cracked it open right ahead of the

1037
01:25:58.960 --> 01:26:04.239
RNC and it was filled with hundreds
of poop and pea bombs I'm just saying

1038
01:26:04.239 --> 01:26:08.399
they're gonna have upgraded equipment this time. But you know, if you still

1039
01:26:08.399 --> 01:26:11.319
want to go with the van,
more power to you. Yeah. I

1040
01:26:11.319 --> 01:26:15.520
can't even imagine what a bunch of
these idiots would use that money for it,

1041
01:26:15.520 --> 01:26:18.239
But I'm sure it's not good.
I did check. It wasn't my

1042
01:26:18.359 --> 01:26:21.399
sister either, So all right,
here we go. The current cash value

1043
01:26:21.439 --> 01:26:28.920
six hundred and twenty one million,
yeah, or one point three three over

1044
01:26:28.960 --> 01:26:30.560
twenty nine years. If it was
your sister, do you think she'd give

1045
01:26:30.600 --> 01:26:35.079
you some of the money. I
wouldn't ask her for any of those.

1046
01:26:35.199 --> 01:26:38.199
I don't think he would. But
do you think she'd out of the kindness

1047
01:26:38.199 --> 01:26:39.840
of her own heart, which would
be like, hey here, here,

1048
01:26:39.920 --> 01:26:44.279
dude, have some money. I
think if if it was that that sister,

1049
01:26:44.520 --> 01:26:49.199
I think that Yeah, I think
she probably would. But she's she

1050
01:26:49.279 --> 01:26:55.279
never struck. She's not a particularly
greedy person, which is you know,

1051
01:26:55.319 --> 01:27:00.920
she's I've always liked that about her. But so she would always do things

1052
01:27:00.920 --> 01:27:03.039
like she would give away presents and
stuff when she was a kid. So

1053
01:27:03.079 --> 01:27:05.880
I think that sister would be like, here's a million dollars for all of

1054
01:27:05.920 --> 01:27:08.960
you, Because I think we've all
thought about that. I know I have.

1055
01:27:09.079 --> 01:27:11.479
I've processed that. I've thought about
that information. Like if I won

1056
01:27:11.520 --> 01:27:13.600
the power Ball, who would I
give money too? Like I have a

1057
01:27:13.600 --> 01:27:15.000
list of people, and I know
I would give me, and I would

1058
01:27:15.039 --> 01:27:18.239
give you, give you. I
would too, I'd pay off your mortgage.

1059
01:27:18.239 --> 01:27:20.560
I would. I would give you
a bunch of money, a lot

1060
01:27:20.560 --> 01:27:23.279
of money, and you never have
to work again. I would do the

1061
01:27:23.279 --> 01:27:26.880
same thing for my sisters, my
mom obviously, yeah, I got I

1062
01:27:26.920 --> 01:27:30.079
would I bulldoze Michael's house and then
buy him a new one. I would

1063
01:27:30.079 --> 01:27:36.159
get Linko on those drum sets with
headphones, soy yeah, yeah, yeah,

1064
01:27:36.199 --> 01:27:40.479
yeah, yeah for sure. Yeah, I you know, but it

1065
01:27:40.520 --> 01:27:43.119
wasn't her. But what if she
didn't, though? Would you would you

1066
01:27:43.159 --> 01:27:45.680
feel? Would you would leave a
party? You be upset? Like I

1067
01:27:45.680 --> 01:27:49.960
can't believe this sort of a you
know, not really, I you know,

1068
01:27:50.119 --> 01:27:55.119
I haven't got into all the details
of everything, you know, everything

1069
01:27:55.159 --> 01:28:00.520
that's ever been a family thing for
me. But there was as we were

1070
01:28:00.520 --> 01:28:04.159
reorganizing the ranch ownership, because it's
complex when you're in a test and all

1071
01:28:04.239 --> 01:28:10.840
of that, there was there was
an opportunity where I was kind of surprised

1072
01:28:10.840 --> 01:28:14.279
that a family member was being how
they were. But I just acquiesced because

1073
01:28:14.359 --> 01:28:18.359
I don't want the hassle because it
wasn't about the money. And I was

1074
01:28:18.399 --> 01:28:21.720
over in like two seconds. So
I don't know. But I know some

1075
01:28:21.960 --> 01:28:26.800
like blood feuds can form, so
but I I until you're presented with it,

1076
01:28:26.840 --> 01:28:30.520
I don't know. I'll tell you
what. She wouldn't blow the money.

1077
01:28:30.600 --> 01:28:33.640
She literally is like she was.
She is a financial muckety muck for

1078
01:28:33.680 --> 01:28:41.119
a chain, a hotel chain up
in the north Northwest, and she's always

1079
01:28:41.159 --> 01:28:44.199
she's always been very fiscally responsible.
I don't even know she'd spend it all.

1080
01:28:44.319 --> 01:28:45.319
I would give a bunch away too. My mom's the same way.

1081
01:28:45.319 --> 01:28:48.680
There's no way she'd she'd move out
of Schnenectady. She'd she'd stay in the

1082
01:28:48.680 --> 01:28:50.800
same house. She wouldn't move.
And she'd be like, well, at

1083
01:28:50.840 --> 01:28:56.520
least I can order pizza when I
want one, now, I guarantee you

1084
01:28:56.520 --> 01:29:00.359
That's what she would say. If
I'm hungry, that's great. And and

1085
01:29:00.439 --> 01:29:04.319
if she sees any any Yankees players
flip their bats, she can afford a

1086
01:29:04.359 --> 01:29:09.119
billboard to shame them. So all
right, do what you're gonna do all

1087
01:29:09.159 --> 01:29:12.439
right, race st agent from the
Weather Channel, just trying to figure out

1088
01:29:12.479 --> 01:29:15.119
who in the Oregon won the giant
power ball, and then I had this

1089
01:29:15.640 --> 01:29:19.199
horrible thought that it might be one
of those Antifa people, and I was

1090
01:29:19.239 --> 01:29:23.279
just like, can you imagine the
damage they could do with seven hundred mil

1091
01:29:23.399 --> 01:29:26.720
cash? Right, They're gonna get
that a lot of money. Man.

1092
01:29:26.840 --> 01:29:29.880
They're like, oh, we brought
in the fresh four in legion stand back,

1093
01:29:29.960 --> 01:29:32.880
So all right, all right,
let's do this thing, because we

1094
01:29:32.960 --> 01:29:35.399
got to deal with the little crap
before we get to the good stuff.

1095
01:29:35.439 --> 01:29:42.359
But the good stuff beings massives later
this week. So yeah, and today

1096
01:29:42.399 --> 01:29:45.960
we'll see some showers already seen some
around the try it start to roll east

1097
01:29:45.960 --> 01:29:48.199
toward the triangle, So a few
showers around today, No widespread rain,

1098
01:29:49.039 --> 01:29:53.600
just kind of a nuisance mid seventies
if you get showers at the right time,

1099
01:29:53.640 --> 01:29:57.000
may not hit seventy five, but
most of us in that range.

1100
01:29:57.199 --> 01:30:00.800
Tonight cloudy fifty nine, tomorrow slight
chance of showers again near eighty, and

1101
01:30:00.840 --> 01:30:03.600
then tomorrow night the Thursday, the
shower chance will start ramping up, especially

1102
01:30:03.640 --> 01:30:09.359
Thursday afternoon Thursday night, where we
may start seeing some heavier rainfall come in,

1103
01:30:09.800 --> 01:30:12.560
and then by Friday, Saturday and
Sunday some beautiful weather which is gonna

1104
01:30:12.600 --> 01:30:15.359
linger it the Monday. We're gonna
get back up near eighty degrees by the

1105
01:30:15.439 --> 01:30:19.600
end of the weekend early next week. So we get through today tomorrow,

1106
01:30:19.680 --> 01:30:24.039
which there won't be a lot of
rain, and especially Thursday and Thursday night,

1107
01:30:24.279 --> 01:30:27.880
we're gonna have a real nice run
coming on up for the Masters.

1108
01:30:27.880 --> 01:30:30.119
If you are so inclined. It
looks like the first round may be hampered

1109
01:30:30.119 --> 01:30:34.800
by areas of rain and thunderstorms.
There'll be one rounds Thursday morning, maybe

1110
01:30:34.840 --> 01:30:39.000
a break, and then another round
probably coming in in the afternoon, and

1111
01:30:39.079 --> 01:30:42.520
then by Friday and the weekend it
should be beautiful. All right, Thank

1112
01:30:42.560 --> 01:30:45.600
you, sir, have a good
one, and we'll come back with Jeff

1113
01:30:45.640 --> 01:30:49.920
Bellinser next hang on. Good morning, casey. Major averages ended yesterday's session

1114
01:30:50.119 --> 01:30:55.399
on Wall Street within tiny fractions of
a percent where they started the day.

1115
01:30:55.760 --> 01:30:58.920
Right now, it looks like we
could start out higher this morning. Now.

1116
01:30:59.000 --> 01:31:02.039
Futures are up four twenty four points. Tesla shares were among the winners

1117
01:31:02.119 --> 01:31:06.760
yesterday. They were up five percent
after Elon Musk promised to unveil a Tesla

1118
01:31:08.119 --> 01:31:13.960
Robotaxi. This summer. General Motors
Crewis division will resume testing of its robotaxis.

1119
01:31:14.239 --> 01:31:17.319
Sources say the vehicles will hit the
streets with safety drivers in Phoenix.

1120
01:31:17.680 --> 01:31:23.720
Economists were surprised this morning by the
latest reading on small business optimism. The

1121
01:31:23.800 --> 01:31:28.880
National Federation of Independent Business reports business
operators were in a funk. Last month,

1122
01:31:29.159 --> 01:31:33.319
optimism dropped to a more than eleven
year low. Apple's fighting last year's

1123
01:31:33.319 --> 01:31:39.760
International Trade Commission decision that forced it
to end US sales of certain Apple watches.

1124
01:31:40.039 --> 01:31:45.479
The company claims the ITC overstepped its
authority when it ruled that Apple watches

1125
01:31:45.520 --> 01:31:49.920
with oxygen saturation monitors violated a patent
owned by the medical device maker Massimo.

1126
01:31:50.359 --> 01:31:57.199
Sales of the watches have resumed after
Apple disabled that monitoring feature best Bias,

1127
01:31:57.319 --> 01:32:02.119
deploying artificial intelligence to streamlines operations.
The company says new tools will be able

1128
01:32:02.159 --> 01:32:08.279
to assist customers with order deliveries and
scheduling, and also helped store and call

1129
01:32:08.319 --> 01:32:12.600
center workers to do their jobs.
Schools may do a good job with reading,

1130
01:32:12.720 --> 01:32:15.880
writing, and arithmetic, but a
majority of middle income Americans give schools

1131
01:32:15.880 --> 01:32:20.039
an f when it comes to finances. Two thirds of the people surveyed by

1132
01:32:20.159 --> 01:32:26.760
Primerica feel they were not taught enough
about how they would manage their personal finances

1133
01:32:26.800 --> 01:32:31.439
as adults and Casey A Customers at
a chicken restaurant New York City are waited

1134
01:32:31.479 --> 01:32:35.119
on by cashiers who are based in
the Philippines. The founder of a tech

1135
01:32:35.159 --> 01:32:40.920
company who dined at the restaurant told
Fortune, a friendly cashier appears on the

1136
01:32:40.960 --> 01:32:45.119
screen, stands by while he places
his order at a kiosk, and then

1137
01:32:45.199 --> 01:32:49.079
controls the restaurant's point of sale system
remotely. Rather interesting. I thought,

1138
01:32:49.199 --> 01:32:55.000
Casey's the what's the name of the
restaurant? I had it here, I

1139
01:32:55.000 --> 01:32:57.680
didn't put it in if I can. I don't know if I can find

1140
01:32:57.720 --> 01:33:00.199
it. Because the Philippines has a
chain that they started opening some here in

1141
01:33:00.239 --> 01:33:04.560
the US. It's kind of like
there McDonald's. I can't remember the name

1142
01:33:04.600 --> 01:33:09.600
of it. I remember it wasn't
good because they have it elsewhere I've eaten.

1143
01:33:09.640 --> 01:33:12.800
I've actually eaten in one of them, but like they it has chicken

1144
01:33:13.119 --> 01:33:16.079
and then spaghetti and then burgers.
Oh, like it has everything. But

1145
01:33:16.279 --> 01:33:19.399
I don't know if it's that.
Yeah. This was described as a Japanese

1146
01:33:19.439 --> 01:33:24.359
fried chicken restaurant that I can't locate
it in my fe all right, no,

1147
01:33:24.399 --> 01:33:27.359
probably I'm problem. All right,
Well, there you go, Thank

1148
01:33:27.399 --> 01:33:30.199
you much, Jeffrey, have a
good day. All right, There you

1149
01:33:30.239 --> 01:33:34.680
go. Jeff Bellinger from Bloomberg News. You know, I saw this story

1150
01:33:34.720 --> 01:33:39.680
and now that I actually started in
my brain processing it. What's the big

1151
01:33:39.680 --> 01:33:43.439
deal? All right? So speaking
of we're just in Oregon, let me

1152
01:33:43.479 --> 01:33:51.119
stay there. Environmentalists are raising the
alarm after a truck with the Oregon Department

1153
01:33:51.119 --> 01:33:56.399
of Fish and Wildlife. It's a
it's what's called a release truck. So

1154
01:33:56.399 --> 01:33:59.039
it looks like you know, it
looks like a gas truck or a milk

1155
01:33:59.079 --> 01:34:00.640
you know, or something and haul
and liquid you see on the road.

1156
01:34:00.680 --> 01:34:05.880
But instead of that in there is
fish, right, so trout, salmon,

1157
01:34:05.960 --> 01:34:09.720
all of that. If you've ever
seen how they do the restocking,

1158
01:34:09.760 --> 01:34:14.199
the big restocking, it's pretty amazing. One of the one of the big

1159
01:34:14.279 --> 01:34:17.840
fish farms in the US is actually
near where I grew up in Wyoming.

1160
01:34:18.560 --> 01:34:21.399
And I'm not saying me and my
buddy's snuck in there to fish, but

1161
01:34:21.439 --> 01:34:26.199
the fishing is really good, So
don't do that. But you know,

1162
01:34:26.319 --> 01:34:30.640
the watching the they do the trout
stocking through Montana, Wyoming, Utah.

1163
01:34:30.880 --> 01:34:33.119
Pretty amazing, all right, So
why am I bringing it up? So

1164
01:34:33.279 --> 01:34:41.479
the truck turn went sideways on a
sharp corner, overturned, rolling down an

1165
01:34:41.520 --> 01:34:48.840
embankment, and losing its entire load
of one hundred and two thousand chinook salmon,

1166
01:34:49.279 --> 01:34:53.159
which they only have so many to
work with, and it is so

1167
01:34:53.239 --> 01:34:57.359
important they get them to where they
need to or it could quote spell disaster

1168
01:34:57.520 --> 01:35:00.039
for the salmon population. All right, So here here's the twist. Here's

1169
01:35:00.039 --> 01:35:08.960
why I'm telling you. The truck
flipped over and loads spilled into looking Glass

1170
01:35:09.119 --> 01:35:16.439
Creek, which is a tributary of
what is it the Ronde River, I

1171
01:35:16.439 --> 01:35:19.239
can't remember the name of the middle, but it all goes into the Snake

1172
01:35:19.319 --> 01:35:25.880
River, which is the which is
the friggin river they were stalking. So

1173
01:35:26.399 --> 01:35:30.199
I'm sorry. Was there an accident
that could threaten the salmon population or the

1174
01:35:30.239 --> 01:35:32.520
fact that you dumped him into the
water which connects to the water you wanted

1175
01:35:32.520 --> 01:35:36.039
to dump him in and they all
swam away, well most of them.

1176
01:35:36.680 --> 01:35:42.039
They did lose some they just didn't
make it into the water, but the

1177
01:35:42.079 --> 01:35:45.319
majority of them made it in I'd
