00:00:00.760 --> 00:00:05.599
You're listening to KFI AM six forty
the Bill handles show on demand on the

2
00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:15.160
iHeartRadio app. And he rambled and
repeats and repeats and repeats. I mean

3
00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:17.839
I tend to do that too,
But here's the difference. When I repeat,

4
00:00:17.879 --> 00:00:20.280
repeat, repeat, you don't look
at you. And I'm talking about

5
00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:24.239
Neil and Amy and Kono. You
do not look at me with complete adulation

6
00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:29.960
and nod. Oh yes we do, sure you, sir, well said.

7
00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:33.359
Okay, see these guys want to
work here on Monday. See how

8
00:00:33.399 --> 00:00:39.000
that works. And now handle on
the news, ladies and gentlemen. Here's

9
00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:47.119
Bill handle excuse me, and good
morning everybody. Bill handle here? Oh

10
00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:52.799
man? Who yeah? Oh well, what can I tell you? It's

11
00:00:52.840 --> 00:00:57.759
a Monday, and we've got a
couple of stories. The lead story I

12
00:00:57.799 --> 00:01:00.320
want to talk about is they just
came out over the weekend. There is

13
00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:06.920
a woman in Alaska who has a
pet clam that is the oldest clam in

14
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:11.280
existence. Okay, that's the lead
story. Now the second story that we're

15
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:17.599
going to cover is this thing with
Joe Biden. Well, yeah, you

16
00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:26.200
know it's uh the clam, Yeah, I think so. Right. First

17
00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:29.719
of all, it's let me say
hello to everybody, and then we're gonna

18
00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:34.840
get into well, some extraordinary historical
stuff that oh man, I'm going to

19
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:38.439
go back into history a lot of
it. A lot of us were alive

20
00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:42.480
the last time anything like this happened, and so we've got a lot,

21
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:47.159
I mean a lot to talk about. Amy, Good morning, Hi Bill,

22
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:52.959
and good morning, Good morning Bill, and codo good morning. And

23
00:01:53.120 --> 00:02:00.200
this entire week our man Petros actually
kla cesman Petros. Petros heard every day

24
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:04.000
on five seven they la sports.
I'm your man, Bill, you are

25
00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:07.319
my man. I always enjoy having
you filling in for Neil. And you'll

26
00:02:07.319 --> 00:02:10.199
be here all week, which is
great fun. And you get to wake

27
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:15.080
up the crack of the middle of
the night, which the rest of us

28
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:16.000
do. What time are you up, by the way, Petros, when

29
00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:20.759
you do this show, I like
five fifteen? Okay, what time do

30
00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:25.000
you normally wake up? Sometimes around
that time? It's okay, schedule,

31
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:29.400
Okay? Is that true? By
the way, do you yes? Okay?

32
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:32.719
All right? Fair enough. You
wouldn't think a manly man like Petros

33
00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:38.199
would do the very sort of the
accusation is gay? Do you wear a

34
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:42.479
two two when you yoga? By
the way Raboa just wear a pair of

35
00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:46.000
shorts. Okay, Well, there
you go and Codo good morning. Yeah

36
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:51.199
it's number two, but I appreciate
it. Yeah, all right, just

37
00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:54.080
because my memory is see, I
have a memory issue, and there's a

38
00:02:54.120 --> 00:03:00.080
lot of pressure for me to resigne
by position because I'm just not the same.

39
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:07.360
I move a lot slower. I'm
just I'm noticeable the shows from you

40
00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:09.360
know, and I put him side
by side on Twitter. It's great,

41
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:14.199
right, Okay, so let's do
it, guys, get right into it.

42
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:21.400
Handle on the news with Amy Petros
and me lead. Sorry, Well,

43
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:23.400
yesterday it happened no surprise, by
the way. I had mentioned this

44
00:03:23.479 --> 00:03:30.599
Thursday and Friday, and everybody was
anticipating that Joe Biden would eliminate himself,

45
00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:34.759
bail out of the race, remove
himself, which anybody can do, by

46
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:38.039
the way, at any point a
nominee can say no, thank you,

47
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:43.080
I'm done, and anybody elected president
to say no, thank you, I'm

48
00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:46.680
done during a presidency. I la
Richard Nixon nineteen seventy three. So,

49
00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:52.039
and we're gonna be talking at all
a lot about this because there are so

50
00:03:52.199 --> 00:04:00.120
many aspects to this. His resignation
from the he has not yet won the

51
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:03.719
nomination, but it was well it's
a lock. It's a lock because the

52
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:09.919
primaries are already done and today the
primary system, of course, is how

53
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:15.319
we set up presidential nominations. Well, we're back to square one. I'm

54
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:19.800
gonna do a little bit of history
when nominations were not based on primaries,

55
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:27.560
where going into the convention no one
had any idea who was going to be

56
00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:34.040
the nominee. And the concept of
these nomination the parties nominating goes, well,

57
00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:40.560
the first three presidents, it didn't
exist. I think it was was

58
00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:46.759
it the parties either? It was
either Thomas Jefferson I think was the first

59
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:51.800
president that was nominated under a party. So there's a lot of history we're

60
00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:57.680
going to talk about today and what
happened and Donald Trump out doing himself,

61
00:04:58.480 --> 00:05:01.560
still ripping into Joe Biden and just
personal attacks. I mean, there's no

62
00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:05.480
there was no reason for this.
I mean, Biden is out of the

63
00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:10.480
race, We're done, and yet
it was attack after attack. The worst

64
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:13.800
president in the history of the United
States. I mean, he's gone,

65
00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:16.279
all right. I mean, just
don't keep kicking him, you know,

66
00:05:16.920 --> 00:05:21.240
don't kick a dead horse, which, by the way, Joe Biden does

67
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:26.079
the best impression of a dead horse
that I have ever seen in my entire

68
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:30.879
life. It got pretty rough.
It was, yeah, it was you

69
00:05:30.879 --> 00:05:35.319
could see it evolving, and it
was a shame. And Joe Biden,

70
00:05:35.319 --> 00:05:41.120
and we'll talk a little bit about
that, became more and more insular as

71
00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:46.240
the not so much the attacks,
as the call for his removal from the

72
00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:53.319
race, of his withdrawal. And
the last time this happened under these circumstances

73
00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:59.240
was during Lynnon Johnson's run second run
for the presidency, and we didn't know

74
00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:02.920
he was going to bail either,
and I remember watching him. He had

75
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:10.720
that pre addressed to the nation where
he said, I will not run,

76
00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:15.600
I will not accept the nomination of
my party for the presidency. Whoa because

77
00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:18.959
there was no Internet. It was
just out of the blue. And it

78
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:25.560
was the Vietnam War that did it
and the nineteen sixty eight demonstrations. But

79
00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:29.560
anyway, there's just a whole lot
more to talk about. Also, we

80
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:34.079
have the attempt at assassination news.
The conspiracy theorists are going crazy, by

81
00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:39.680
the way, it's on the other
side now, now it's the whole thing

82
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:46.759
was set up. This is a
red flag that was put up by the

83
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:57.319
Republican Party to engender even more support
for former President Trump. Conspiracy theorists abound.

84
00:06:57.639 --> 00:07:02.879
I love it. We are in
a world of I feel conspiratorial.

85
00:07:03.879 --> 00:07:06.560
Well, we have to come up
with a conspiracy theory for the show,

86
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:10.720
and I don't know what it is, and will you get to work on

87
00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:14.560
that please? Yeah? Okay.
A big quick sign that people were ready

88
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:18.519
for Biden to get out. Democrats
quickly started opening their wallets, donating more

89
00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:25.879
than fifty million dollars just yesterday,
like in the fifteen hours since Biden made

90
00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:30.199
his announcement. It makes it the
single biggest day for online democratic contribution since

91
00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:36.120
the twenty twenty election. Donations spiked
so before the announcement, the donations were

92
00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:43.160
coming in at less than two hundred
thousand dollars an hour, but then after

93
00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:46.680
the announcement, nearly eleven and a
half million dollars was donated in a single

94
00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:53.319
hour. Now, think of this, why this makes so much sense because

95
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:58.920
the Democratic position is not so much. Here's our policy, here's what we're

96
00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:01.879
going to do. It is beat
Trump. That's number one, two or

97
00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:05.759
three, Beat Trump. It's all
they want to make it all about Trump.

98
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:09.720
Trump wants to make it all about
Trump in a different way. And

99
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:16.000
so now Trump's position that Joe Biden
was the worst president in the world,

100
00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:20.800
there's never been. We had the
worst economy under Joe Trump, under Joe

101
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:22.639
Biden, and why is that.
Well, all you have to do is,

102
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:31.040
look, they took a Biden took
a grown, growing economy and destroyed

103
00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:31.720
it. By the way, which
is not true. We have one of

104
00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:37.519
the best economies we've ever had.
We're just moving. We're still the strongest

105
00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:41.639
economy in the world. But that's
besides the point. And so the worst

106
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:46.440
president he's no longer in. Kamala
Harris is can't be the worst president?

107
00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:52.279
How about too old, too daughter
ing, can't function? Can't do that

108
00:08:52.320 --> 00:09:00.600
with Kamala Harris, can you?
She can make all the arguments about Donald

109
00:09:00.600 --> 00:09:05.360
Trump with a lot more credibility without
being attacked. Now, I don't think

110
00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:09.320
she is the most wonderful choice for
president. I'm not a Kamala Harris fan,

111
00:09:09.679 --> 00:09:13.879
but she is more apt to beat
Trump. And I think that's what's

112
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:18.679
going on with the Democratic Party.
The donors were just fleeing like crazy rats

113
00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:22.759
office sinking ship. I shouldn't say
that because that will immediate that quote.

114
00:09:22.799 --> 00:09:28.759
Will Lemny go up Handle calls donors
rats off of sinking ship a democratic donors?

115
00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:33.480
Who are people that give money to
political case? Oh, big,

116
00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:37.720
big players right? Most people I
know that would never even consider it,

117
00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:41.519
you know. Yeah, how many
How many billionaire friends do you get?

118
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:45.360
Have friends? None? I know? So I know. It's very interesting

119
00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:48.000
though, like how people react in
that way, like I want to give

120
00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:52.480
this this like when after Trump got
shot, same thing, you know everybody

121
00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:56.519
you know those I want to give
them money, And it's like those are

122
00:09:56.320 --> 00:10:03.639
but they don't go after there's a
grassroots effort where the presidential candidates and anybody

123
00:10:03.840 --> 00:10:07.799
who's running, there's grassroots, and
then there's major donors. The candidate can't

124
00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:11.399
pick up the phone and talk to
a donor, or won't to a donor

125
00:10:11.399 --> 00:10:16.679
who gives twenty five bucks, someone
who writes a check for two million dollars,

126
00:10:16.919 --> 00:10:22.879
that person gets called and beg for
money. That's how it works from

127
00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:24.600
college football too, That's how you
get on the plane with the team and

128
00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:28.120
get there, you go, there
you go. It's a golden rule.

129
00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:31.080
Let your money, It's a golden
rule. Yeah, he who has the

130
00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:33.519
gold makes the rules. You get
a little FaceTime with the candidate or the

131
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:41.039
press. Yeah, and that's why
your sports station gets these advertisers who sell

132
00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:48.279
things that your listeners would never ever
buy because like female full body deodorant.

133
00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:54.120
Yeah, good point, all right. Secret Service denied request for more security

134
00:10:54.159 --> 00:11:00.559
resources at Trump events before the attempted
assassination. I guess there is a hearing

135
00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:05.120
this morning we're going to talk about. But they did repeatedly deny request the

136
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:11.159
Secret Service for more personnel and security
resources from agents guarding former President Donald Trump

137
00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:18.399
prior to the assassination attempt in Butler
on July thirteenth. And it's because they

138
00:11:18.399 --> 00:11:20.480
said they didn't have enough people.
Yeah, and here's the question. Yeah,

139
00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:24.240
let's get a little bit deeper into
that, because at first glance,

140
00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:26.720
oh my god, the Secret Service
said no, the Trump organization, we

141
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:31.559
need more security Secret Services. No, Okay, a couple of things.

142
00:11:31.919 --> 00:11:35.279
The reason they said no, from
what we understand, is they said,

143
00:11:35.320 --> 00:11:37.799
we, as Petros just pointed out, we don't have the resources. Now,

144
00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:46.559
has the Secret Service been asking or
has the executive branch been asking for

145
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:50.480
more money for Secret Service? That's
number one. And if they didn't have

146
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:52.440
it, what do you do?
You do have limited resources. By the

147
00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:56.840
way, I don't know whether this
is true or not, but looking at

148
00:11:56.879 --> 00:12:01.399
it, let's consider that because it's
not just a quick headline. And the

149
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:07.919
other situation is that quite often local
law enforcement is used to augment Secret Service

150
00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:15.639
protection because there are never enough agents
to line the entire route to go on

151
00:12:15.799 --> 00:12:20.399
top of every building. There just
isn't there. There aren't those resources,

152
00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:24.279
so you have local law enforcement.
So let's look and see who's at fault.

153
00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:28.600
Because we know a local cop went
up there and saw the shooter and

154
00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:33.519
then came down. And there's a
whole story there that he went on the

155
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:39.960
roof and was looking, saw the
shooter and then dropped down about eight feet

156
00:12:39.960 --> 00:12:43.879
because his head was up. We're
talking about the local cop dropped down and

157
00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:50.240
why didn't he start screaming, shooter, shooter, shooter. Well, because

158
00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:56.080
he drops down and I think six
or eight seconds later is when the shots

159
00:12:56.200 --> 00:13:00.320
are fired. So there are a
lot of pieces here. By the way,

160
00:13:00.320 --> 00:13:03.120
that doesn't mean the Secret Service didn't
screw up at all. One of

161
00:13:03.120 --> 00:13:07.399
them is how do you have four
hundred and fifty feet line of sight with

162
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:11.600
the building that you don't have shooters
up there that you don't have counter terrorists

163
00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:18.480
up there. So it's not just
this headline, and yeah, you have

164
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:20.840
to look at these stories run much
deeper. There's a lot of nuance to

165
00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:24.600
a lot of this stuff. Do
you think the onion actually gets unpeeled or

166
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:26.320
do we just oh, yeah,
no, no, no, the onion

167
00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:30.360
gets Oh you're going to see the
onion getting unpeeled. There. Not only

168
00:13:30.440 --> 00:13:39.000
is Congress holding hearings immediately, but
also majorcus has ordered a ordered a full

169
00:13:39.320 --> 00:13:43.240
internal investigation. You know it's going
to be unpeeled. It is okay,

170
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:45.840
and start of the some of the
pealing is going to start today. And

171
00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:50.600
the big question is can Kim survive. Kimberly Cheatle is the director of the

172
00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:58.320
Secret Service, facing new calls to
resign from a group of bipartisan lawmakers.

173
00:13:58.679 --> 00:14:01.000
And of course that's coming in the
of the information that we were just talking

174
00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:07.399
about that the Secret Service denied requests
repeatedly to increase security at Trump rally events.

175
00:14:07.639 --> 00:14:11.679
A cheetah is scheduled to appear this
morning at the House Oversight Committee hearing.

176
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:20.440
Yesterday, Representative Brendan Boyle actually on
Saturday became the first Democrat in Congress

177
00:14:20.440 --> 00:14:24.840
to call for her to resign.
Yes, she'll go, she's gone.

178
00:14:26.080 --> 00:14:30.960
Heads have to roll on this.
And she could be. She could be

179
00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:39.159
completely innocent, because the guarding of
presidential candidate, the head Han show is

180
00:14:39.279 --> 00:14:45.399
policy is not calling up and go
how many agents do you have? So

181
00:14:45.879 --> 00:14:48.519
it doesn't matter she's going, she's
going. There has to be a scapegoat,

182
00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:52.480
and it's gonna have to be her, even if she's innocent. She

183
00:14:52.519 --> 00:14:56.399
may not be. She may not
be. It could be just she's administratively

184
00:14:56.440 --> 00:15:00.840
bad and she should go on that
basis. And this is just the tip

185
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:03.919
at the bottom of the campbell.
I don't care. Huh. Can anyone

186
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:07.480
fire her? Yeah? Oh absolutely, unless the civil service, which I

187
00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:09.600
don't think it is. I think
it's appointed. You bet. Head of

188
00:15:09.639 --> 00:15:16.960
Homeland Security, my Orcis can can
harass. And he's next. He's announced

189
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:20.080
an independent review of a Trump assassination
plot. I don't know if he's in

190
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:26.759
trouble too. Alejandro Mayorcis will be
there with a bipartisan independent review of the

191
00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:31.399
thirteenth July thirteenth assassination attempt, and
they're going to continue to talk about it

192
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:35.080
and try to get to the bottom
of it. But it's very interesting because

193
00:15:35.559 --> 00:15:39.600
I mean, none of these people
like Trump, right, so there's always

194
00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:43.600
that's that's going to be like an
overriding sort of cloud over this where you

195
00:15:43.600 --> 00:15:46.919
didn't like this guy, that's why
you didn't send anybody to protect him.

196
00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:52.759
Yeah, that's going to be the
argument, and it's that may be the

197
00:15:52.799 --> 00:15:58.200
political backlash on this now, have
that they use that as a cudgel on

198
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:00.919
all these poor people. Well,
they're certainly going to in this case.

199
00:16:00.960 --> 00:16:03.440
Now, my orca is particularly he's
in deep trouble to begin with because the

200
00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:07.679
political attack. He is the poster
child of the attacks. He's that dartboard

201
00:16:08.120 --> 00:16:15.559
for the Republicans. Remember, they
try to impeach him based on he somehow

202
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:19.919
violated the law with the border.
And so the impeachment went nowhere, of

203
00:16:19.960 --> 00:16:26.799
course, because frankly, it's his
policy follows the policy of the president.

204
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:29.960
He serves at the pleasure of the
president. So why would you impeach,

205
00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:33.799
for example, a secretary, you
know, as opposed to the guy who

206
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:37.960
set up the policy. You get
rid of an underling, even though the

207
00:16:38.039 --> 00:16:42.320
underling is working from the guy who
made the order. So that's my orcus.

208
00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:48.080
And yeah, he's going to stay
there till the end of Trump's I

209
00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:52.240
mean the end of Biden's term.
Okay, mister Nettan Yahoo goes to Washington.

210
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:56.320
Got an interesting ring coon, huh
So. Prime Minister Benjamin Nettanyah,

211
00:16:56.320 --> 00:17:02.320
who is landing today in what Washington, d C. Is going to be

212
00:17:02.360 --> 00:17:07.559
addressing a joint meeting of Congress on
Wednesday. And while he's here, he's

213
00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:12.400
being attacked back at home for leaving
while the war with the Hamas rages on

214
00:17:12.839 --> 00:17:18.279
and there are concerns that it could
spread to Lebanon and Yemen. Oh yeah,

215
00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:22.799
no, this thing is going south
very very quickly. And there's that

216
00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:26.960
one. There's so many pieces.
One of the things I heard over the

217
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:30.519
weekend there was another facility that was
bombed by Israel and it was another medical

218
00:17:30.519 --> 00:17:34.279
facility. And just just a quick
aside before we get back into the news,

219
00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:41.359
and that is Israel says their claim
is that all of these facilities that

220
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:49.680
they are bombing are headquarters and or
positions where Hamas works out of civilian a

221
00:17:49.880 --> 00:17:55.640
civilian targets, if you will.
And Israel says, we're going after Hamas,

222
00:17:55.960 --> 00:18:00.119
that's what we're doing. Hamas says, no, we have of absolutely

223
00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:06.079
no military involvement in any of those
places. We are not there. All

224
00:18:06.480 --> 00:18:11.960
of the independent, all of the
humanitarian workers, the medical workers who are

225
00:18:11.960 --> 00:18:15.920
not part of the Hamas government or
part of Kamas, they're all saying the

226
00:18:15.960 --> 00:18:22.279
same thing. There is no fighting
by Hamas and Israel. It's just Israel

227
00:18:22.440 --> 00:18:27.039
attacking hospitals and schools. And they're
all saying that. I haven't heard one

228
00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:33.200
say, yeah, there were some
Hamas fighters sitting in that operating room over

229
00:18:33.240 --> 00:18:41.359
there. What we have is there
is no fighting from Hamas. No Hamas

230
00:18:41.000 --> 00:18:49.119
fighter has ever been connected to a
hospital, a school, an apartment building.

231
00:18:49.160 --> 00:18:52.799
That's what the independent, That's what
the workers are saying, the aid

232
00:18:52.880 --> 00:19:00.759
workers, where are they what there's
no fighting going on, Where are they

233
00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:04.680
fighting from? That's the part that
I don't understand. I mean, I

234
00:19:04.799 --> 00:19:07.839
just don't get it. But I'm
sure we'll talk more about that. That

235
00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:11.240
was just an aside, and I
was talking about that over the weekend,

236
00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:17.640
and I digress. So let's move
on more news and talk about what's going

237
00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:22.400
on. Cost a billion dollars,
the CrowdStrike thing, the crippling global tech

238
00:19:22.480 --> 00:19:27.519
outage on Friday, but figuring out
who will pay for the damages could take

239
00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:33.720
a little bit longer, So we'll
see what happens when the CrowdStrike situation.

240
00:19:34.599 --> 00:19:37.319
We have no idea. I'm going
to do a story on this one because

241
00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:42.440
this thing runs deep, it really
does. And how the largest it outage

242
00:19:42.480 --> 00:19:45.759
in history. Yeah, and it's
not going to be the last. You

243
00:19:45.759 --> 00:19:49.880
should have seen what happened at the
Fox Football seminar. They had every famous

244
00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:56.079
football from Terry Bradshaw to Howie Long
to Tom Brady in a room and everybody's

245
00:19:56.079 --> 00:19:59.279
flight got canceled at the same time. Would you like to be one of

246
00:19:59.319 --> 00:20:02.359
those porous since trying to figure out
how to get these guys back to their

247
00:20:02.400 --> 00:20:06.519
mansions in Hyanna, Sport or whatever. It was very difficult day for everybody.

248
00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:11.079
Yeah. Just blowing up the footballs
back to their normal pressure. That'll

249
00:20:11.160 --> 00:20:15.359
or you know that? How dare
you bill? That's only in New England?

250
00:20:17.319 --> 00:20:22.480
Oh okay. Joe Manchin was hinting
that he might get into the race,

251
00:20:22.519 --> 00:20:26.519
but apparently that didn't last. Independent
West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin said this

252
00:20:26.599 --> 00:20:30.400
morning, I am not going to
be a candidate for president. I watched

253
00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:33.519
a show when he was like you
know what. I'm considering it. But

254
00:20:33.039 --> 00:20:38.039
now he's saying, no, he's
not in. He did tell CNN's Cassie

255
00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:44.400
or Casey Hunt that he was pursuing
the process, but acknowledged it's almost impossible

256
00:20:44.440 --> 00:20:48.680
for him to win the nomination.
He did say that he wasn't he wasn't

257
00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:52.279
really in supportive Harris. He thinks
she's too far left and thinks there should

258
00:20:52.319 --> 00:20:56.799
be a nominating process. Oh,
there's going to be a nominating process,

259
00:20:57.200 --> 00:21:00.440
and she's going to get nominated,
right. Thinks other people should be involved.

260
00:21:00.519 --> 00:21:06.240
Well, I'm sure he does.
Okay, Now what are other people

261
00:21:06.279 --> 00:21:11.880
going to be involved? There may
be an I don't think so there.

262
00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:15.160
I think she may get it by
acclamation. I think she's gonna get it.

263
00:21:15.240 --> 00:21:18.480
I mean, I cannot see anybody
else making a fight, making a

264
00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:22.880
fight for this, because there's too
many people that are now on her side,

265
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:27.880
major players. I have not heard
of one major Democrat even hinting that

266
00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:33.480
someone else should be at least running
for the nomination. Not that nothing.

267
00:21:33.960 --> 00:21:41.359
Crickets Newsom, who was rumored to
be somebody who might be put up immediately,

268
00:21:41.480 --> 00:21:45.039
almost endorsed Harris yesterday. Oh yeah, yeah, he's going for the

269
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:49.960
vice presidency and then on a stepping
stone for her for him to be the

270
00:21:51.000 --> 00:21:55.799
next president. Who's the guy from
Pennsylvania, Not doctor oz Shai Fetterman,

271
00:21:56.079 --> 00:22:00.359
that's the other guy. Yeah there. I mean those are names that are

272
00:22:00.359 --> 00:22:06.039
being bandied about, which doesn't hurt
them for the future. But she,

273
00:22:06.039 --> 00:22:08.640
she basically has it. And then
you know, at first I thought she

274
00:22:08.880 --> 00:22:15.279
was there's nothing there, or there's
very little there but her. She has

275
00:22:15.319 --> 00:22:22.920
some huge advantages. Woman mixed race
democrat can get young. No one can

276
00:22:23.039 --> 00:22:29.839
order uh, No one can say
doddering old uh, losing cognitive abilities that

277
00:22:29.920 --> 00:22:33.799
you can't say anymore. I'm just
interested in the attacks. The Republicans have

278
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:37.400
already started attacking her, and I
am just fascinated to see what Trump is

279
00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:44.200
going to say about her. It's
it's I just this has gotten so fascinating.

280
00:22:44.279 --> 00:22:47.599
I thought it was just going to
be Trump wins, done, finished,

281
00:22:47.640 --> 00:22:52.480
and now a whole new spin has
come into it. How many more

282
00:22:52.519 --> 00:22:55.079
spins will there be? Tell me
you know what, I I don't know.

283
00:22:55.839 --> 00:22:57.359
I never thought this would happened.
Would you ever think that Joe Biden

284
00:22:57.400 --> 00:23:00.839
would bail out? Would you ever
think that Joe Biden. Was that much

285
00:23:00.839 --> 00:23:04.240
of a debacle in his debate.
I mean I thought it was he was

286
00:23:04.240 --> 00:23:07.240
going to do so good, but
I mean the guy imploded. He got

287
00:23:07.319 --> 00:23:11.599
hit by a truck. It was
so bad, all right. Yeah,

288
00:23:11.640 --> 00:23:18.000
it looks like JD. Vance left
his Venmo public uh, and all the

289
00:23:18.000 --> 00:23:21.319
connections that he has and all the
people that he talks to, and all

290
00:23:21.359 --> 00:23:26.519
the very powerful people because he's a
Yale law school guy, are in there.

291
00:23:26.519 --> 00:23:29.240
I don't know if he's sculling bones. You guys know about sculling bones.

292
00:23:29.640 --> 00:23:33.240
Yeah, yeah, yeah, sculling
bones. Man, the book,

293
00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:36.119
that's where you that's where you want
to go to. That's the game,

294
00:23:36.279 --> 00:23:38.880
that's the club you want to be
when you're in college, full doing pistols,

295
00:23:38.960 --> 00:23:47.240
doing pistols all day, white rich
connected. Well, that certainly wasn't

296
00:23:47.319 --> 00:23:52.400
JD. Vance. Well, he
was white and connected for the most part.

297
00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:57.039
No, he's an outlier. JD. Vance and hill Billy elogy is

298
00:23:57.079 --> 00:24:00.599
that? Do I have that right? The name wrote a book that's hugely

299
00:24:00.640 --> 00:24:04.680
famous, and he's a very interesting
guy to say the least. I mean,

300
00:24:04.680 --> 00:24:10.839
he's kind of out there politically,
But and then there's some stuff and

301
00:24:11.319 --> 00:24:18.359
his social media. I gotta say
Skull and Bones, that movie with Pacy

302
00:24:18.400 --> 00:24:23.319
from Dawson's Creek and Craig T.
Nelson. It's pretty sweet. Was it

303
00:24:23.359 --> 00:24:27.160
called Skull and Bone? It was
called skulls Oh yeah, they got rid

304
00:24:27.200 --> 00:24:30.440
of the bones part. Yeah,
okay, here's the story Amy. Yeah.

305
00:24:30.480 --> 00:24:33.519
The Trump's used to back Kamala Harris. Yeah, and that's no big

306
00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:41.039
deal. And I'll tell you why
Donald Trump actually backed everybody pro abortion.

307
00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:47.880
He was a Democrat. Ronald Reagan
was a raging liberal in the thirties,

308
00:24:48.119 --> 00:24:52.200
was a Democrat. It just so
happens Ronald Reagan passed, if you can

309
00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:57.079
imagine this, the most far reaching
pro abortion bill in the United States when

310
00:24:57.079 --> 00:25:02.799
he was governor. It happens.
People have a past. Well, and

311
00:25:02.839 --> 00:25:04.680
Trump said it when he was first
campaigning, where they said, oh,

312
00:25:04.799 --> 00:25:08.279
you donated to Hillary Clinton's campaign,
he said, I donated to everybody.

313
00:25:08.440 --> 00:25:14.279
Yeah. Man, that's what people
at that level do. Is it because

314
00:25:14.319 --> 00:25:18.440
of social media or just our lack
of attention that we seem to like forget

315
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:22.559
the past quicker? Now? Yeah, it is. I think it's both.

316
00:25:22.160 --> 00:25:25.480
I think it's both. You argue
that was a lot of years ago,

317
00:25:25.960 --> 00:25:29.880
although this wasn't a lot of years
ago, and I've changed my wilket

318
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:34.599
Janie Vance was a virul and anti
trumpist. I mean, this guy talked

319
00:25:34.599 --> 00:25:41.839
about Trump and some of the most
negative ways you can for a Republican and

320
00:25:41.319 --> 00:25:44.519
so we can say, hey,
I looked at it. I changed my

321
00:25:44.640 --> 00:25:48.599
mind. He's my kind of guy, and he's not being attacked for that.

322
00:25:48.880 --> 00:25:53.000
You joined the club and that's what
happened. Oh and then this one,

323
00:25:53.079 --> 00:26:00.319
let's end with this. Well,
it's a tough situation. I'll tell

324
00:26:00.359 --> 00:26:06.200
you that. And I'm on it. My computer went down, So I'm

325
00:26:06.680 --> 00:26:07.920
oh, your computer went down.
OK, No, I got it.

326
00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:14.799
I got it. Worst president by
far. Trump blast Biden after election withdrawal.

327
00:26:14.880 --> 00:26:17.720
He really got after him. Bill. He pulled out the bazukah and

328
00:26:17.960 --> 00:26:19.359
just killed the dead horse. Like
you said, Yeah, I mean,

329
00:26:19.440 --> 00:26:23.200
why would he do that? I
mean, come on, guys, why

330
00:26:23.240 --> 00:26:27.480
would he do that? And you
know he's done, he's finished. I

331
00:26:27.480 --> 00:26:32.319
can understand going after Kamala Harris.
I get that because it's political. I

332
00:26:32.319 --> 00:26:37.759
can understand going after Joe Biden during
the presidential run. I can understand that

333
00:26:37.799 --> 00:26:40.799
all the thing. I think Trump
goes way, way, way too far.

334
00:26:40.960 --> 00:26:44.200
But I can understand the basis of
it. Joe Biden is done.

335
00:26:44.920 --> 00:26:47.559
Come on, you're still gonna make
fun of the fact that he is,

336
00:26:47.599 --> 00:26:51.880
he's old, he's daughtering he was
unfit to be the president. You got

337
00:26:51.920 --> 00:26:56.759
Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the
Assembly, saying if Biden is unfit to

338
00:26:56.799 --> 00:27:00.559
be the president, he should resign
now, which I don't know have legs

339
00:27:02.319 --> 00:27:04.319
you know, no, no,
it doesn't. But why would Mike Johnson

340
00:27:04.400 --> 00:27:11.599
do that? Because then on the
ballot it says if Kamala Harris gets it,

341
00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:17.039
it says president of the United States
for what she does as a living

342
00:27:18.599 --> 00:27:26.039
she becomes a sitting president. Wouldn't
you want Biden to stay in until election

343
00:27:26.160 --> 00:27:30.799
day or until next January twentieth,
or I don't want her to see how

344
00:27:32.680 --> 00:27:34.920
potentially bad she would do now?
But there's not enough. But there's not

345
00:27:36.039 --> 00:27:45.119
enough time for her to do anything
bad or good other than maintain Joe Biden's

346
00:27:45.160 --> 00:27:49.880
position socially, which she does and
politically, which she does. Those two

347
00:27:49.880 --> 00:27:53.720
were in lockstep. The batter good
even matter anymore? Is it just optics?

348
00:27:53.880 --> 00:27:59.519
When people talk and how they react
on social media? Well, bad

349
00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:04.799
or good has never in the last
several decades mattered. So yes, it

350
00:28:04.880 --> 00:28:11.000
is optics all right. KFI AM
