WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:05.960
Got one of those you got one
of those primary things tomorrow, yippip yep,

2
00:00:06.919 --> 00:00:10.240
yeah, Super Tuesday, all that
good stuff. So not just North

3
00:00:10.240 --> 00:00:15.240
Carolina, but that's when that's when
we'll be digging into this thing. And

4
00:00:16.160 --> 00:00:21.960
Lord knows, from a primary perspective, we have some races that obviously it'll

5
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:27.640
be interesting to see how they pan
out. We have some others that is

6
00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:34.479
kind of a foregone conclusion. I
guess that if you win the primary,

7
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:41.920
you win whatever the seed is.
I mean, in some cases probably,

8
00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:46.840
but you know, who knows we
got We've already got AI or quasi or

9
00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:54.520
things described as AI up in up
in the race. We have pretty nasty

10
00:00:55.920 --> 00:01:02.240
primary campaigns. And then you wonder
does that hold over to the general election.

11
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:11.000
I don't know. And we have
some races that may or may not

12
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:17.079
be I guess it will depend on
what voters choose to do with the information,

13
00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:23.280
but may or may not be changed. Following kind of some last minute

14
00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:26.760
stuff going on that we'll get into. I see the folks over at McClatchy

15
00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:32.400
decided that they wanted to I want
to write himselves a big story on bo

16
00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:38.879
Hines on Friday. Will that impact
the race? With Walker and Castelli and

17
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:44.400
others. I don't know, but
I do know this, Ros and I

18
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:53.680
have developed a brilliant system over the
years to really streamline all of the insanity

19
00:01:53.879 --> 00:02:00.719
that are elections, specifically primary and
general elections at federal levels, wide level,

20
00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:06.640
and yes, even at a state
level where we cover so many different

21
00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:15.360
counties and congressional districts and everything,
rather than going through the tedious process of

22
00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:24.199
lining every single candidate up, many
of which who don't understand how Equal Time

23
00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:30.919
works and talk radio stations, but
doing that because that's the way the stations

24
00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:38.919
have always done it. Nah,
we reward people who listen, even though

25
00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:45.080
it is running for office. So
here's the way we do this. Tomorrow

26
00:02:45.159 --> 00:02:52.159
obviously, Super Tuesday, we have
we have candidates run the gamut. I

27
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:54.560
know it's primary obviously, and it's
another two hundred and sixty some days to

28
00:02:54.639 --> 00:03:01.400
the general. But we want to
provide an opportunity for those who are in

29
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:08.599
fact on the ballot, yeah,
the opportunity to say, hey, and

30
00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:16.479
so here's how we give you this
up today. We will if you are

31
00:03:16.599 --> 00:03:24.840
on a state wide race or a
federal office race. Okay, so congress

32
00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:32.120
resident for that matter, Senate,
which isn't a thing here, but you

33
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:37.759
know, just for clerical purposes,
one of the Council of States offices,

34
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:45.280
you know, governor labor, whatever
it is. If that is you and

35
00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:47.520
you want to call into the show
today at some point and say hello,

36
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:53.479
just talk for a few minutes.
I don't care what letter follows your name,

37
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:58.759
just that you are among those on
that ballot. And then tomorrow we

38
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:04.439
will InCor or create state and local
races. Okay, So that's how it

39
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:09.400
works. Ross has his own unique
vetting system to make sure it's not just

40
00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:14.039
some psycho calling in going hey it's
then you know it's Mark Robinson and it's

41
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:17.680
clearly not. We will do some
behind the scenes vetting, but yeah,

42
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:21.040
we throw it out there. And
then thus, by making this offer to

43
00:04:21.079 --> 00:04:26.759
everyone in the same way, in
the same place, I have achieved the

44
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:32.839
spirit of equal time, even though
it's not the thing you think it is.

45
00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:36.800
Candidates who send me emails on this
stuff, okay, all right,

46
00:04:36.920 --> 00:04:45.199
very good? Or Ross, you
want to take two days off? This

47
00:04:45.279 --> 00:04:47.680
sounds amazing. I mean, like, I mean a little less than two

48
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:53.040
days, like two days minus one
segment, he stayed. I mean,

49
00:04:54.399 --> 00:04:56.560
I mean, yeah, we had
to put in the effort and come in.

50
00:04:56.600 --> 00:05:00.000
But is that an option. I
would like it to be, because

51
00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:03.199
I will check that box. Okay, I don't think it's an option,

52
00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:08.000
but that's how we do it.
So that is I just wanted to give

53
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:11.120
you all the explanation. That's how
it works. Our phone number eight eight

54
00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:14.560
eight nine three four seven eight seven
four. Here's what that does not mean.

55
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:20.920
Do not call Ross or email or
any form of communication either Ross or

56
00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:25.399
me and go, hey, I'm
so and so for candidate so and so.

57
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:31.519
How about we schedule a time and
then insert whatever it is. Nope,

58
00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:35.040
Nope, going to be on the
show, call, tell them who

59
00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:39.160
you are, rousseill figured out and
then we'll do it. And then that's

60
00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:44.240
just kind of you know, it's
a window dressing for the rest of the

61
00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:49.199
show. That's how that's how we
do things. So you know, make

62
00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:53.680
the effort, stop kissing the baby, whatever it is. And if you

63
00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:57.360
are with somebody's candidacy and you hear
this and you want to reach out to

64
00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:01.319
them, then by all means,
but that's how that goes. So anyway,

65
00:06:01.399 --> 00:06:05.959
let's listen to the president, the
former president of the United States make

66
00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:11.279
a really really funny adult joke.
Shall we How many of you went and

67
00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:14.519
saw him in Greensboro? By the
way, curious how that was? All

68
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:16.920
right, let's get to it.
I was indicted by Fanny in Georgia.

69
00:06:17.000 --> 00:06:21.519
Fady, how did that work out? By the way, it's Fannie,

70
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:26.879
sir, it's Fani. I too
thought it was the other thing, but

71
00:06:26.920 --> 00:06:34.600
I was told it's the other thing
and her lover Nathan Wade, and they

72
00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:39.399
hired him for almost a million dollars
because of his great, great experience.

73
00:06:39.480 --> 00:06:43.360
Of course, he didn't have any
experience. He had experienced in something else.

74
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:46.959
You know that a lot of experience. Come on, that's funny,

75
00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:51.839
that's funny. And at that I'm
quite sure he was very good. Based

76
00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:55.920
on the fact that she called him
two thousand times, I didn't know the

77
00:06:56.040 --> 00:06:59.560
gentleman. I didn't know. Oh, you have two thousand phone calls,

78
00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:04.199
thousand, five hundred text messages.
How is it possible? In a short

79
00:07:04.279 --> 00:07:08.199
I know a lot of people,
we like a lot of people. I

80
00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:20.439
happen to have a very good relationship
with a woman called Millennia. But I

81
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:24.199
would venture to say, in all
the years that I've known her, I

82
00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:28.079
might not have called her two thousand, five hundred times. That's a I

83
00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:31.680
know I didn't send three thousand,
five hundred text messages. All right,

84
00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:38.879
let's uh, I gotta let's talk
about that. The text message just comes

85
00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:43.920
down to if you text a lot, right, Some couples text a lot.

86
00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:46.000
Some roster you and you and the
wife text a lot. Because you're

87
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:48.720
not a text say, yes,
we do. But I know you guys

88
00:07:48.759 --> 00:07:54.079
do because I twenty five hundred,
you guys have probably texted twenty five hundred

89
00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:59.040
easily easily. Now the calling,
man, I don't know. I guess

90
00:07:59.079 --> 00:08:05.399
that the calling maybe maybe like maybe
one actual colleague per month. Yeah,

91
00:08:05.480 --> 00:08:11.800
And don't get me started on FaceTime
because oh it just that became an issue

92
00:08:11.839 --> 00:08:13.160
because you and I just had a
meeting we had to do last week where

93
00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:16.240
it was FaceTime, right and you
had to like literally down, I had

94
00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:18.720
to re download the app and that
comes on most phones, right, come

95
00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:22.439
standard, And I can't say it
FaceTime. Yeah, I hate it.

96
00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:24.879
Like if you FaceTime me, I'm
just gonna like take my phone and face

97
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:28.720
it down to the counter and I
will use it like a phone, Like

98
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:35.360
it'll just be audio. That's what
it is. It's from a meeting perspective,

99
00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:39.159
like, unless you're showing charts and
graphs like phones, phone's gonna make

100
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:43.519
this happen. But yeah, yeah, I have it's on my phone.

101
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:46.799
I don't know where I buried it
in one of the folders though, I

102
00:08:46.840 --> 00:08:50.759
just know occasionally some weirdo tries to
FaceTime me and then I just don't accept

103
00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:54.279
it unless literally, like the boss
just said, Hey, this is what

104
00:08:54.360 --> 00:08:58.720
we're doing. But yeah, so
anyway, I thought that was a good

105
00:08:58.759 --> 00:09:03.759
line. He kind of he paused
for one of the laughs and then didn't

106
00:09:03.799 --> 00:09:09.240
pause for what I think should have
been the bigger But you know, he

107
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:11.879
does a lot more public speaking than
me, so maybe it works out.

108
00:09:11.039 --> 00:09:16.000
Anyway, six seventeen. Now you
know the rules on the kandidacy stuff,

109
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:24.159
and we will we won't make that
a part of the show. But in

110
00:09:24.200 --> 00:09:26.360
the interim I got a lot of
stuff. In fact, I'll give you

111
00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:30.559
a rundown coming up next here on
the CaCO Day Radio program. Yeah,

112
00:09:30.679 --> 00:09:37.519
topic kind of got beat to death, especially around COVID with squatters. Although

113
00:09:37.559 --> 00:09:43.799
California has been I mean, some
of the squatting stories there are absolutely legendary.

114
00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:50.960
New York kind of ran into it. During COVID, because when they

115
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:56.080
passed laws, people did things like
they went on like the RBO or Airbnb,

116
00:09:56.240 --> 00:10:03.720
and then they would rent a you
know, like a Berkshires I am

117
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:07.159
I saying that, right, the
the Berkshires whatever, or a house on

118
00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:11.200
Long Island, right, and some
beach house and they'd rent it for some

119
00:10:11.240 --> 00:10:15.039
stupid amount for like a few days, and then they'd go all right,

120
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:22.879
not leaving. And you literally had
people out in in some of the wealthiest

121
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:31.039
parts of America that were living in
these mansions, mansions out on Long Island

122
00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:37.080
who basically wrote out COVID. There
some crazy stories, however, man,

123
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:45.840
this one, this one I was
reading, this one is a doovie doozy.

124
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:52.039
And yes it is Long Island,
although it is not out in more

125
00:10:52.080 --> 00:11:03.440
the beechy ritzy areas. But still
still absolute no accountability for judges, the

126
00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:07.120
audacity obviously of the folks involved.
You hear the whole backstory here, and

127
00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:15.559
you realize why people, whether it
is business people talking about what happened with

128
00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:24.399
Trump, right, and this whole
Letitia James prosecution and he said his assets

129
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:28.360
were worth this and then the bank
just agreed after doing due diligence and then

130
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:35.320
they did alone and he paid it
back and literally nobody was upset and the

131
00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:39.600
bigger issue that was talked about.
I saw one of the dudes from Shark

132
00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:43.320
Tank goes at Kevin O'Leary, who
was talking about this and other saying,

133
00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:48.679
you don't think that that has an
impact because in your fervor to go after

134
00:11:48.759 --> 00:11:52.399
your political opponent, you never ask
yourself, well, what are the long

135
00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:56.840
term consequences here? Oh, and
the other example I thought was in Delaware

136
00:11:56.919 --> 00:12:03.519
with Elon Musk's pay package. Right, it feels so good in the moment,

137
00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:07.960
right to go ahead and do this
thing, and then you celebrated on

138
00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:13.720
social media. But the reality is
people, especially when you're talking about the

139
00:12:13.799 --> 00:12:18.159
kind of money you're talking about for
the deals like the one Trump was being

140
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:24.639
played for, you realize people with
money, they tend to calculate risks and

141
00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:28.840
things that could come up. And
you've just added a new or at the

142
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:35.799
very least an expanded possibility tab.
Right. So, if you're doing a

143
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:39.600
deal or incorporating a company or whatever
it may be, and there's hundreds of

144
00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:46.039
millions or perhaps even billions on the
line, you got to sit there and

145
00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:50.960
look at the state of New York
and go, yeah, I don't know,

146
00:12:50.799 --> 00:12:54.919
because like what happens, and then
maybe you look at your past political

147
00:12:54.960 --> 00:13:00.799
donations, right because people love to
dig into that. Remember you had you

148
00:13:00.879 --> 00:13:05.639
had the Mozilla dude, Remember the
guy from Mozilla who made a contribution to

149
00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:11.559
a pack that was I want to
say it was a definition of marriage Act

150
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:16.960
or whatever it may have been,
right, and in their personal stead donated

151
00:13:18.279 --> 00:13:22.960
I don't remember what it was like
ten thousand dollars or something, which you

152
00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:26.200
know, if you're a big silicon
guy, that's not much money, but

153
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:31.639
made that donation. And they didn't
just screw things up for Mozilla. They

154
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:39.840
got investors to run that dude,
and that's where they went. So if

155
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:45.879
if you're a if you're a guy
who's brokering a big deal in New York,

156
00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:48.759
that's another thing you look at.
In this case, if you're somebody

157
00:13:48.759 --> 00:13:54.200
who was I don't know, going
to invest in property or have a situation

158
00:13:56.039 --> 00:14:00.799
in a particular municipality that might be
avoided in another we're looking at that,

159
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:11.320
whether it's vacation homes or in this
case, just the ability of taking basic

160
00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:15.919
information into a court of law and
having at the very least in the interim,

161
00:14:18.600 --> 00:14:22.679
the preponderance of evidence kind of be
the default position, and all of

162
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:26.879
that is not at play here.
But I'll tell you the whole sordid tale

163
00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:35.919
because absolutely it's fear inducing. I
can't even imagine. And the part that

164
00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:41.519
irritates me so much about this story
is you had people that likely could have

165
00:14:41.600 --> 00:14:48.600
benefited from the investment in this case
that was made by their parents during the

166
00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:58.320
very waning years of their life and
idiot judges man and laws for that matter,

167
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:00.960
but also, as you'll come to
find out, idiot A judges just

168
00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:07.600
don't give a crap. And like, I couldn't fathom this. I'm not

169
00:15:07.639 --> 00:15:15.639
gonna lie. They're gonna kill one
of these wrestlers. Man. I don't

170
00:15:15.639 --> 00:15:20.879
know if you saw a video over
the weekend of sting At what was it?

171
00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:26.799
Aw Revolution? I believe was the
event name. Anyway, this dude's

172
00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:33.240
eligible for Social Security and they're slamming
him through tables. So yeah, but

173
00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:39.960
he's an amazing shape like he is
though, like he's he's gonna be retiring,

174
00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:41.000
So that's why it was like a
big right, right, I know,

175
00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:46.600
but he's sixty four. He is
something about throwing a sixty four year

176
00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:52.759
old dude through a table or tables, I should say, kind of crazy.

177
00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:56.840
So you're denying any of the supernatural
things behind the character. You don't

178
00:15:56.840 --> 00:15:58.840
think that's the thing. He's not
powered by a different force than you and

179
00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:07.440
I, Well, you're operating under
the assumption that that force, whatever it

180
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:15.320
may be, automatically grant some sort
of longevity bonus, right, or immortality.

181
00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:22.440
But that's not always the case.
So admittedly I don't know the totality

182
00:16:22.440 --> 00:16:26.120
of the lore there, but I
thought it was kind of open for debate.

183
00:16:26.240 --> 00:16:27.399
Do you know who came up with
his gimmick? Because I remember he

184
00:16:27.440 --> 00:16:33.039
wasn't always like Crowsting, Yeah,
no, with with the Crows, Dad,

185
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:38.000
I do not know Scott Hall.
Yeah, and believe and like when

186
00:16:38.000 --> 00:16:41.360
he did it, he had never
seen the Crow before, like he was

187
00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:44.639
unaware that that was actually part of
the movie. He thought it was like

188
00:16:44.679 --> 00:16:48.799
a completely original Scott Hall idea.
It's a good gimmick, is yeah,

189
00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:52.879
yeah, yeah yeah, And it's
a it's an absolute crime that Sting never

190
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:57.679
fought the Undertaker. That is such
a missed opportunity there that really never happened.

191
00:16:57.679 --> 00:17:02.720
It never happened, should have happened. You have the forces of hell

192
00:17:02.960 --> 00:17:06.680
I mean, or I mean,
let's see, let's see who struck the

193
00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:11.319
better bargain kind of thing. But
you suplexin a dude through panes of glass

194
00:17:11.440 --> 00:17:18.359
and a table. He's sixty four. I don't know, man, it

195
00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:21.559
was. It was incredibly popular.
If you take the social media, it's

196
00:17:21.599 --> 00:17:23.640
damn near the only thing. Just
say it's the only thing, but it's

197
00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:27.559
it's definitely the top thing people are
talking about. But I don't know,

198
00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:30.440
man, I cringe, cringe a
little when I watch it. Although I

199
00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:33.160
have to be honest, if somebody
hadn't told me he was sixty four,

200
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:36.319
I guess I wouldn't have known.
You'd have no idea. And the thing

201
00:17:36.359 --> 00:17:38.000
is like when you realize how long
his career has been, Like you see

202
00:17:38.000 --> 00:17:42.920
like WCW Wrestling was a game on
the NES the original Nintendo. Yeah,

203
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:48.799
so he was like old and pixelated
way before Crowsting. And now he's in

204
00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:52.200
like the recent games as the icon. And you see like the evolution of

205
00:17:52.359 --> 00:17:55.839
when he first showed up in a
video game to now, and you're like,

206
00:17:55.920 --> 00:18:00.480
that dude has been around forever.
I'm trying to think, think when

207
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:06.279
did he first come in I don't
have it here in f I I'm not

208
00:18:06.279 --> 00:18:11.119
gonna look it up. But to
your point, yeah, no, he's

209
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:14.599
been around forever. This was obviously
this was a retirement, This was a

210
00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:18.359
send off. So they're going to
go all out for it. But still

211
00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:26.000
after who who was it? Who
was it? To damn near got tombstone

212
00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:29.480
to death trying to think who that
was? That was over in Saudi Arabia

213
00:18:29.519 --> 00:18:33.880
too, wasn't it? Where was
this one? Or maybe this one was

214
00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:40.079
in London? I knew it was
somewhere. Well anyway, now watch out

215
00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:42.960
for that. Uh, here we
go. How many of you hate going

216
00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:49.640
to the government office whatever it is
dm V got to go pull a permit?

217
00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:53.200
Maybe that's uh, you know,
part of your part of your job

218
00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:57.079
there. Yeah, you probably don't
want to do it, and who not,

219
00:18:57.160 --> 00:19:00.319
you know, maybe you're you're friendly
with the employees that you deal with

220
00:19:00.359 --> 00:19:04.240
if you got to do it on
the regular there. But I have a

221
00:19:04.240 --> 00:19:11.319
feeling in Union County maybe some folks
didn't mind it as much. Here we

222
00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:17.440
go. Deputies say that a twenty
one year old is what is her title?

223
00:19:17.519 --> 00:19:25.480
Even let's see here works for the
Union County government. Eligibility technician.

224
00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:32.079
That's that's her gig, the twenty
one year old. Oh, by the

225
00:19:32.119 --> 00:19:36.240
way, the gig. According to
NC State's description here, the role typically

226
00:19:36.319 --> 00:19:41.680
helps those who are applying for government
benefits or healthcare program programs. All right,

227
00:19:41.720 --> 00:19:47.960
so why was she suspended? Well, according to authorities, just wasn't

228
00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:52.839
making ends meet with the with the
county gig down in Union County, so

229
00:19:52.960 --> 00:20:03.799
to supplement the income she was hooking
on the side allegedly. Yeah, authorities

230
00:20:03.839 --> 00:20:08.119
say that. Following the rest Friday
and a charge with ten counts of misdemeanor

231
00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:14.920
solicitation of prostitution. I wonder,
I wonder if somebody got had beef with

232
00:20:14.960 --> 00:20:18.039
her and reported her, because it
doesn't really say how she was caught.

233
00:20:18.599 --> 00:20:25.319
They do reference some ads, I
guess, so maybe it was part of

234
00:20:25.400 --> 00:20:29.960
a bigger Yeah, says it was
part of a bigger ongoing. So it's

235
00:20:30.119 --> 00:20:36.400
part of one of those much bigger
Many Many police hours investigation like they do

236
00:20:36.480 --> 00:20:44.160
with strip clubs, in this case
with prostitution ads. Let's see. According

237
00:20:44.160 --> 00:20:51.599
to authorities process released Friday afternoon,
here's this statement from the county manager.

238
00:20:51.640 --> 00:20:56.640
We've taken immediate action to suspend Kendall
Griffin's employment with Union County without pay.

239
00:20:59.240 --> 00:21:03.599
We're fully committed to supporting the Sheriff's
office hold employees to start, so standard

240
00:21:03.720 --> 00:21:07.079
stuff you would expect there. Yeah, I wonder, I wonder if there's

241
00:21:07.079 --> 00:21:15.279
some people who came back to uh
get processed several times. I'm curious if

242
00:21:15.279 --> 00:21:18.359
it was part of the open investigation
or somebody just somebody was just salty.

243
00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:23.359
Man. Hey, I mean,
that's that's the reality here. How do

244
00:21:23.400 --> 00:21:26.200
you think, how do you think
the how do you think the the the

245
00:21:26.279 --> 00:21:30.960
teachers with the only fans get busted? Right? Remember that woman in California

246
00:21:32.119 --> 00:21:34.559
or Sacramento with the two kids who
was doing like the she had like the

247
00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:41.440
mom gimmick because since reason that term. Remember the story there was like all

248
00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:45.799
the dads knew, and then uh, some guy I guess must have told

249
00:21:45.799 --> 00:21:52.319
his wife, but nobody was saying
nothing for a while because again the dads

250
00:21:52.400 --> 00:21:55.160
knew. But as soon as the
mom found out, all of a sudden,

251
00:21:55.200 --> 00:22:00.880
the whole story unraveled. I'm sure
that wasn't a happy coincidence. So

252
00:22:00.920 --> 00:22:03.480
yeah, anyway, and then they
have they say they have a process,

253
00:22:03.640 --> 00:22:08.480
they're going to let her go.
Obviously she's only charged, so there is

254
00:22:08.680 --> 00:22:18.480
that. But anyway, what if
any appointments got canceled? Just wondering six

255
00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:25.440
forty two k Cooday Radio program.
Well, I want to get into the

256
00:22:25.440 --> 00:22:30.839
squatters thing. I'm gonna need a
whole segment to do that, so we'll

257
00:22:30.839 --> 00:22:33.799
get to that here. Ian,
Well, let's do this. We'll go

258
00:22:33.799 --> 00:22:36.799
ahead and hit our break. Just
a remind her it is the Monday before

259
00:22:36.839 --> 00:22:41.000
the Tuesday, which is the primary, and so we are doing our little

260
00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:48.160
candidate roundup thing today just to kind
of split this up. We are statewide

261
00:22:48.240 --> 00:22:53.920
races and federal races, so Council
of State Governors obviously we're talking primaries,

262
00:22:55.880 --> 00:23:00.160
congressional seats, any of those candidates, if you're on the ballot, a

263
00:23:00.160 --> 00:23:04.319
few minutes on the air, we
provide the opportunity today and then tomorrow will

264
00:23:04.440 --> 00:23:11.960
roll in local local candidates, you
know, say, House primaries, whatever

265
00:23:11.000 --> 00:23:15.960
it may be. And that's you
know, that's how we accomplish that.

266
00:23:15.680 --> 00:23:21.359
Round these parts phone number eight eight
eight nine three four seven eight seven four

267
00:23:21.559 --> 00:23:29.920
back in just a few Icky Haley's
campaign is a quote reinvigorated following her primary

268
00:23:30.279 --> 00:23:41.200
when over Trump over the weekend in
Washington, DC, so in the which,

269
00:23:41.240 --> 00:23:44.920
by the way, what is what
is the actual I know what the

270
00:23:44.960 --> 00:23:48.119
registration breaks down to, but I
know what the voting pattern does. So

271
00:23:48.200 --> 00:23:53.319
that's like what eight percent of the
population when you're talking Republican primary is probably

272
00:23:53.400 --> 00:23:59.960
less than that, right, because
I don't know fully what the independent window

273
00:24:00.160 --> 00:24:03.640
is or indeed, be honest,
in DC, can you vote across primary?

274
00:24:03.720 --> 00:24:10.359
I don't know. But anyway,
Yeah, so she got the she

275
00:24:10.440 --> 00:24:18.640
got the the DC victory over the
weekend, and I mean, I guess

276
00:24:18.720 --> 00:24:22.079
from from a publicity standpoint, you
got to go out and you got to

277
00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:30.000
treat it as a mandate because that's
what candidates do. But some would argue

278
00:24:30.039 --> 00:24:37.400
that that actually reflects worse just considering
even the Republicans in DC are kind of

279
00:24:37.759 --> 00:24:41.519
kind of different. Man. But
yeah, and obviously we're getting into ours

280
00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:49.799
coming up on Tuesday, and that
meant that meant you had you had a

281
00:24:49.839 --> 00:24:56.279
lot of folks sniffing around North Carolina, including Haley and Trump, who both

282
00:24:56.319 --> 00:25:00.720
had events here is so we went
into the weekend. Anybody go to the

283
00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:04.319
Trump event and if our tryad oh, I guess basically anyone from the state

284
00:25:04.319 --> 00:25:11.400
could have driven over there. How
was that, and especially how was that

285
00:25:11.480 --> 00:25:15.960
event if you had been to another
one during the twenty twenty cycle or even

286
00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:22.839
the twenty sixteen because I went to
one in twenty sixteen, I went to

287
00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:29.440
two, actually kind of spied on
one, but physically went to two,

288
00:25:30.240 --> 00:25:33.839
and also went to one in twenty
twenty, and I didn't notice a lot

289
00:25:33.880 --> 00:25:42.119
of remarkable differences. But the media
has run a bunch of stories saying,

290
00:25:42.160 --> 00:25:45.559
oh, he's losing his step all
that, and some would say that that

291
00:25:45.759 --> 00:25:52.640
might be a little bit of deflecting
for another candidate. But I will entertain

292
00:25:52.759 --> 00:26:00.640
those spy reports, but do so
with a smile, because as candidates are

293
00:26:00.720 --> 00:26:06.720
running around asking for your vote.
Coming up on Tuesday, the folks up

294
00:26:06.720 --> 00:26:10.519
in Washington, d C harder work
over at the Centers for Disease Control and

295
00:26:10.640 --> 00:26:21.079
Prevention. Who wants you to know
that they are changing their recommendations for quarantine

296
00:26:21.359 --> 00:26:26.519
from COVID nineteen. So I know
that all of you who follow all recommendations

297
00:26:26.519 --> 00:26:30.920
from the CDC, you probably have
been doing ten days. Right, That's

298
00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:33.799
where we kind of left this.
Remember it was twenty one days, and

299
00:26:33.799 --> 00:26:38.200
then it was two weeks, and
then that was how many days we're going

300
00:26:38.240 --> 00:26:44.599
to solve the whole thing a couple
of weeks, and then obviously it went

301
00:26:44.640 --> 00:26:49.319
into what it is well now,
these Centers for Disease Control says the long

302
00:26:49.319 --> 00:26:55.759
standing guidance needs adjusted, saying that
people can return to work or regular activity

303
00:26:55.799 --> 00:27:00.119
if their symptoms are mild and improving
and it's been one day since they've had

304
00:27:00.119 --> 00:27:07.000
a fever, but five days since
the initial onset, during which five days

305
00:27:07.079 --> 00:27:12.839
you should be uh completely isolated still, But it had been ten days.

306
00:27:14.079 --> 00:27:21.400
I have a question was there anyone
doing ten days still? And more importantly,

307
00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:26.319
was there an expectation by employers that
ten days was fine? Right?

308
00:27:26.119 --> 00:27:30.880
I know that they they kind of
have to, but I don't know a

309
00:27:30.920 --> 00:27:34.000
lot of employers have been down with
ten days, especially if you're feeling better.

310
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:41.240
And even even though you could point
at the CDC recommendations, that's just

311
00:27:41.119 --> 00:27:48.680
like I've had COVID since then.
I know people have had COVID and the

312
00:27:48.079 --> 00:27:53.920
you know, I missed maybe a
few days obviously, but nah, they

313
00:27:53.960 --> 00:27:57.400
just came back. The change comes
at a time with COVID nineteen is no

314
00:27:57.519 --> 00:28:03.720
longer the public health menace. It
was, well, I'm sorry, Well,

315
00:28:03.720 --> 00:28:08.400
what's changed about it? I mean
the way that you associated press by

316
00:28:08.400 --> 00:28:15.119
the way wrote this story, is
the threat that different? Because it's my

317
00:28:15.279 --> 00:28:19.240
understanding reading these weepy posts about people
are like I vaccinated six times and my

318
00:28:19.359 --> 00:28:23.079
partner came down with it. Why
God, why? Right? You know,

319
00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:30.400
posts like that like that's still a
thing. Every time I've flown,

320
00:28:32.559 --> 00:28:36.559
even since they didn't require to the
airlines anymore, I'd say a third of

321
00:28:36.599 --> 00:28:38.480
the aircraft is still in masks,
which by you know, that's fine,

322
00:28:38.519 --> 00:28:42.039
dude, which you know you do
you. I also had the incident where

323
00:28:42.039 --> 00:28:47.839
I flew and the woman had the
mass with the face shield and was trying

324
00:28:47.880 --> 00:28:52.200
to drink with not really removing stuff
but kind of like working a straw under

325
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:56.839
there, and then sitting next to
me who's not wearing a mask, looking

326
00:28:56.880 --> 00:29:00.000
at me like I'm you know,
I came here to kill kid or something.

327
00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:07.680
So I suspect those, you know, those people who are the lockdown

328
00:29:07.759 --> 00:29:12.519
me daddy kind of attitude. They're
probably pretty sad about this for a new

329
00:29:14.039 --> 00:29:18.200
Mandy Cohen remember her yip yip yep. She says, our goal here is

330
00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:22.400
to continue to protect those at risk
for severe illness, while also reassuring folks

331
00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:26.039
that there are recommendations which are simple, clear and easy to understand that can

332
00:29:26.079 --> 00:29:33.599
be followed. And remember, during
her time as the the top health official

333
00:29:33.680 --> 00:29:41.160
here in North Carolina, we have
the amazing video where she's standing off to

334
00:29:41.200 --> 00:29:42.440
the stage, off to the side, you know, getting ready to come

335
00:29:42.480 --> 00:29:47.599
on stage, and the camera is
just panned out enough so you can see

336
00:29:47.640 --> 00:29:49.799
her over there, and what does
she do. She sticks a mask on

337
00:29:51.000 --> 00:29:56.200
almost mid stride, then proceeds to
get up on the podium while taking the

338
00:29:56.279 --> 00:30:00.640
mask down like she's don't worry.
I've been I've been following all the rules

339
00:30:00.640 --> 00:30:03.839
in the back, but now I'm
on stage by myself, so I can

340
00:30:03.880 --> 00:30:07.839
take it down. This is what
you know, This is what our recommendation

341
00:30:07.000 --> 00:30:10.920
says. And then you point it
out and they're just like all of a

342
00:30:10.920 --> 00:30:14.680
sudden, the video that some of
the news agencies were running, they just

343
00:30:14.759 --> 00:30:25.359
kind of clipped off that front part, which is obviously something that none of

344
00:30:25.400 --> 00:30:27.720
them would have done. If it
was the other way around. That'd still

345
00:30:27.759 --> 00:30:33.359
be a damn meme. Man.
However, even with the recommendation, some

346
00:30:33.519 --> 00:30:37.839
experts worry that the change may increase
the risk of infection for older people and

347
00:30:37.920 --> 00:30:44.119
others who are more vulnerable to getting
seriously ill. Well, then I would

348
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:48.720
go back to the playe thing.
Right, here's the deal. Other than

349
00:30:48.759 --> 00:30:52.920
me wondering aloud why you're wearing a
face shield with a mask but also drinking

350
00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:56.400
under there and you keep putting your
hands at your mouth like I may wonder

351
00:30:56.440 --> 00:31:00.720
your logic, I'm not gonna say
anything. Do what you want. And

352
00:31:00.839 --> 00:31:03.000
yes, even though you're giving me
stink eye, she didn't say anything,

353
00:31:03.079 --> 00:31:07.400
so we're fine. She'd have said
some bigger you know, and then it's

354
00:31:07.440 --> 00:31:11.119
another issue. So what that is
is that somebody I don't know medically if

355
00:31:11.160 --> 00:31:15.200
she needs that, but if that's
what makes her feel comfortable, or she

356
00:31:15.400 --> 00:31:21.400
is an increased risk, or she
is around older people even as somebody who

357
00:31:21.519 --> 00:31:25.880
might appear to be healthy, and
she just you know, wants to make

358
00:31:25.920 --> 00:31:29.599
sure that she doesn't go back and
give it to somebody Like I totally respect

359
00:31:29.599 --> 00:31:33.960
that. Do your thing whatever.
Cacoda Radio program, Glad to have you

360
00:31:33.000 --> 00:31:37.920
along. This is rich dude.
I am just during the break there,

361
00:31:38.039 --> 00:31:45.799
I was reading this report. I'm
telling you, man, I'm in the

362
00:31:45.839 --> 00:31:52.839
wrong gig. The give you know, government money for useless, worthless studies

363
00:31:52.880 --> 00:31:57.079
to tell you everything that she already
knew that is a lucrative business. All

364
00:31:57.160 --> 00:32:02.000
right, everybody sitting down. I
don't want to catch anyone off guard on

365
00:32:02.119 --> 00:32:15.279
this Monday morning. But it appears
now that the numbers are in that crime

366
00:32:15.359 --> 00:32:22.279
in New York in twenty twenty three
increased in a lot of areas, and

367
00:32:22.359 --> 00:32:30.039
especially in the areas that you know
are noticeable to people. And it appears

368
00:32:30.559 --> 00:32:34.400
that they've come up with some unique
reasons why they think that may be.

369
00:32:34.599 --> 00:32:40.119
Now critics, critics of the governor
and the mayor of New York and others

370
00:32:42.400 --> 00:32:47.759
would point to things like justice reforms, right, cashless bail, basically being

371
00:32:47.839 --> 00:32:52.279
a turnstile. If you get arrested
one in the morning, you can go

372
00:32:52.359 --> 00:32:54.599
out do something in the afternoon and
probably still be home for dinner, even

373
00:32:54.599 --> 00:33:01.599
if you get caught both times.
But they really dance around that issue in

374
00:33:01.640 --> 00:33:12.279
this thing, noting that there is
seemingly there seems to be a connection because

375
00:33:12.519 --> 00:33:20.119
it appears that people who may be
charged for a crime have an increase probability.

376
00:33:20.440 --> 00:33:24.200
This is the part you need to
be sitting down for of being charged

377
00:33:24.240 --> 00:33:31.279
with another crime within the same calendar
year. So somebody is I don't know

378
00:33:31.839 --> 00:33:37.880
let's say the carjackings their thing.
Everybody's got a different hustle. If you

379
00:33:37.920 --> 00:33:42.160
look at the stats here, what
you see is that if somebody is arrested,

380
00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:45.000
say, let's say you were arrested
for let's say Ross tried to carjack

381
00:33:45.079 --> 00:33:51.119
somebody leaving the studio today, all
right, for whatever reason. I don't

382
00:33:51.119 --> 00:33:53.400
know what prompted it. He's just
say I need that car and I'm making

383
00:33:53.480 --> 00:33:59.599
mind. And let's say he was
arrested for it. There is, according

384
00:33:59.599 --> 00:34:08.280
totistics here, a higher probability that
Ross may attempt to carjack somebody else even

385
00:34:08.519 --> 00:34:15.400
following an arrest, because ultimately,
if they're immediately back on the streets or

386
00:34:15.400 --> 00:34:19.679
at the very least, it seems
like prosecutors aren't taking this stuff seriously.

387
00:34:19.800 --> 00:34:22.880
Why the hell would you stop?
DC ran into it, and so they

388
00:34:22.880 --> 00:34:27.559
put these numbers out and they're like, well, I mean, some people

389
00:34:27.639 --> 00:34:35.159
would speculate that just because people who
commit crime or have committed crimes have a

390
00:34:35.239 --> 00:34:42.760
higher probability of committing crimes again,
that those two things are necessarily linked,

391
00:34:43.320 --> 00:34:45.559
and they go through painstaking efforts to
go, well, look, you can't,

392
00:34:46.079 --> 00:34:51.199
you can't think one thing is necessarily
connected to the other We're probably going

393
00:34:51.280 --> 00:34:57.119
to need another study on this,
but I've seen everything I need. Study

394
00:34:57.119 --> 00:35:00.920
shows that repeat crime, again,
this is about repeat crime, and specifically

395
00:35:00.960 --> 00:35:07.239
repeat criminals increased in New York.
So it's breaking down even the statistic of

396
00:35:07.480 --> 00:35:15.880
just occurrences of the crime. So
the deeper layer on that study, which

397
00:35:15.920 --> 00:35:22.719
then purports not to be able to
make a clear connection, sees that crime

398
00:35:22.760 --> 00:35:29.639
committed by an individual multiple times within
a year is increased and has been on

399
00:35:29.679 --> 00:35:32.239
the increase in New York for a
couple of years, but last year was

400
00:35:32.320 --> 00:35:40.360
really the peak of seeing those numbers. Because the crazy person who goes sound

401
00:35:40.360 --> 00:35:46.000
to the subway, takes his sports
car out and you sings Dixie while screaming

402
00:35:46.039 --> 00:35:50.519
at people or whatever his freak is
in the Elmo costume, but just the

403
00:35:50.559 --> 00:35:53.880
top half, you know, for
the bottom half to be free. That

404
00:35:53.960 --> 00:35:59.400
if that psychopath is just told,
all right, someday maybe we'll do some

405
00:35:59.599 --> 00:36:01.679
about this, but not now,
he's going to be down there the next

406
00:36:01.760 --> 00:36:10.360
day, sports car in hand,
singing his butt off man. And the

407
00:36:10.400 --> 00:36:15.199
irony, of course, is the
study was actually something that the state wanted

408
00:36:15.199 --> 00:36:22.280
to do and the city partnered on
along with John Jay College and the Criminal

409
00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:29.039
Justice Data Collaborative Effort, which had
a lot of facts. Sixty six percent

410
00:36:29.079 --> 00:36:35.199
of people released under the bail reform
so cashless bail who had a recent prior

411
00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:43.119
arrest were rearrested within two years,
the majority within one year, and more

412
00:36:43.159 --> 00:36:52.320
than half the time for the very
same crime. Because while bail reforms for

413
00:36:52.480 --> 00:36:57.280
somebody who is a first timer is
the narrative that is generally put out there,

414
00:36:57.320 --> 00:37:01.039
right, they're like, you know
this is and I understand, right,

415
00:37:01.159 --> 00:37:06.480
because you get arrested, you're charged
with a crime. It's not necessarily

416
00:37:06.480 --> 00:37:09.719
a speedy process. And I'm not
saying that everyone has to be remanded.

417
00:37:09.760 --> 00:37:20.519
But if you're a repeat criminal dirt
bag, chances are whatever you're good at,

418
00:37:21.079 --> 00:37:25.039
you're going to keep doing. Looking
at you drug dealing or smashing grabs

419
00:37:25.199 --> 00:37:30.480
or going into stores and grabbing whatever
you want or carjacking like the example I

420
00:37:30.559 --> 00:37:37.119
used earlier. And if it doesn't
feel like it could cost you or could

421
00:37:37.159 --> 00:37:39.119
cost you any time, so why
would you stop you? Obviously you're dealing

422
00:37:39.119 --> 00:37:45.719
with people with impulse control problems anyway. The study also showed the sixty seven

423
00:37:45.840 --> 00:37:52.639
percent of defendants who had a recent
prior felony arrest in the past year were

424
00:37:52.679 --> 00:37:55.360
re arrested within a year. So
now when you get into the stuff that

425
00:37:55.480 --> 00:38:00.679
really is in your face, you
know, like the guy walking down the

426
00:38:00.719 --> 00:38:05.159
street just punching people. Guy in
Chicago, I know we're talking about New

427
00:38:05.239 --> 00:38:07.880
York. A guy in Chicago.
What was this like as three hundred arrest

428
00:38:07.960 --> 00:38:12.480
or something for doing one of those
Hey, I'm walking down the street and

429
00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:15.679
I see a random I think it
was an Asian woman. Let me just

430
00:38:15.760 --> 00:38:20.119
punch somebody's, you know, frail
Asian grandma because I'm having a bad day.

431
00:38:22.480 --> 00:38:24.320
And then you look at the rap
sheet on guys like that, and

432
00:38:24.320 --> 00:38:30.800
then you do this study which literally
shows you that even though the narrative you

433
00:38:30.800 --> 00:38:34.000
want to talk about is the Hey, this first time the guy was arrested

434
00:38:35.199 --> 00:38:39.199
is not who they're dealing with is
part of it. And even if you

435
00:38:39.239 --> 00:38:45.400
wanted bail reform based on first time, a lot of times that was built.

436
00:38:45.480 --> 00:38:47.000
That was kind of baked into the
cake when you're arguing for bail.

437
00:38:50.199 --> 00:38:52.679
But if you want to make that
part of the discussion, fine, But

438
00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:57.760
the problem is you created a system
for a guy who he might have stole

439
00:38:57.840 --> 00:39:01.920
three cars that morning and this is
the round of it, and prosecutors go,

440
00:39:01.960 --> 00:39:07.320
well, my hands are tied.
I can't do anything. Just to

441
00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:12.760
be clear, the John Jay College, this is not This is not some

442
00:39:12.880 --> 00:39:16.280
conservative think tank, right. These
are moonbats. These are moonbats who crunched

443
00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:22.159
the numbers, came to this conclusion
published it actually did a previous one in

444
00:39:22.199 --> 00:39:27.880
August of twenty twenty two showing that
there was a quick spike in the rearrest

445
00:39:28.000 --> 00:39:35.119
rates for people with prior records following
the initial implementing of the bail reforms.

446
00:39:35.639 --> 00:39:39.119
And this is where we find ourselves. So all the data is there,

447
00:39:39.199 --> 00:39:43.440
the stats are there. You paid
for the study. The question will be

448
00:39:43.480 --> 00:39:47.719
do you do anything or you just
ignore it? And, judging by the

449
00:39:47.800 --> 00:39:52.519
quotes on the record, probably just
going to ignore it. But that's New

450
00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:54.159
York Man. How do I know? All I have to do is look

451
00:39:54.199 --> 00:39:59.960
at this crazy Long Island squatter story, which I'll share with you coming up.

452
00:40:00.079 --> 00:40:06.159
Hang on one other caveat on that
study I mentioned, Here we go,

453
00:40:07.079 --> 00:40:14.199
and this is an important one.
The recidivism is undercounted. And what

454
00:40:14.239 --> 00:40:16.320
I mean by that is going back
to the example that I gave of,

455
00:40:16.599 --> 00:40:21.239
Well, it doesn't have to be
ross. But somebody who carjacks somebody in

456
00:40:21.360 --> 00:40:25.800
January and then basically gets all right, we'll see you in maybe September for

457
00:40:25.920 --> 00:40:31.079
a court hearing, but for now, cashless bail back you go. And

458
00:40:31.119 --> 00:40:40.280
then if they carjack another car in
May, now they've officially been counted as

459
00:40:40.519 --> 00:40:47.480
recidivism. However, after that,
they could carjack a car every single day,

460
00:40:49.039 --> 00:40:59.159
right, and it's still only counted
as somebody who is a recidivist offender.

461
00:41:00.079 --> 00:41:02.719
Right, So it doesn't one time
versus five times doesn't matter for the

462
00:41:02.719 --> 00:41:07.760
purpose of the numbers. So they're
already kind of tweaking. It is simply

463
00:41:07.840 --> 00:41:10.960
asked, dody go out and commit
the same crime within a calendar period.

464
00:41:12.559 --> 00:41:15.880
It doesn't matter how many times,
And it expressly says when you look at

465
00:41:15.880 --> 00:41:21.880
the totals, it is it is
only balancing for the act of recidivism,

466
00:41:22.119 --> 00:41:30.519
not the numbers. So yeah,
it's actually worse. And so I guess

467
00:41:30.519 --> 00:41:32.719
when they ignored it'll be a bigger
deal. All right, What the hell

468
00:41:32.800 --> 00:41:38.199
is going on in Georgia? Man? So over the weekend, officers were

469
00:41:38.239 --> 00:41:45.239
called to the Six Flags park there, which I've never been to the Six

470
00:41:45.320 --> 00:41:49.599
Flags in Georgia. I don't even
know what part of Atlanta you'd seeing says

471
00:41:49.639 --> 00:41:55.480
it's in suburban Atlanta. Let's see
where is this Austelle? Is that that's

472
00:41:55.519 --> 00:41:59.920
north of Atlanta? Okay, you're
a cop county. Yeah, anyway,

473
00:42:01.280 --> 00:42:07.199
police receive reports of an unruly crowd. What did it say at the report

474
00:42:07.599 --> 00:42:17.719
of six hundred people? Six hundred
individuals, according to park authorities, were

475
00:42:17.800 --> 00:42:23.760
engaged in a just like a rolling
fistfight, and in fact, a fifteen

476
00:42:23.880 --> 00:42:32.079
year old was shot and wounded.
I guess technically that was just outside of

477
00:42:32.239 --> 00:42:37.280
the park's gates on the service road
where the shooting took place. So now

478
00:42:37.400 --> 00:42:40.239
whether that firearm was in the park
or not, I don't know. But

479
00:42:40.440 --> 00:42:45.119
when police showed up, sure enough, they said they estimate five to six

480
00:42:45.199 --> 00:42:47.719
hundred people were running through the park
fighting. And when I say running through,

481
00:42:47.840 --> 00:42:52.239
the video is mayhem. So you
don't just have like a group who's

482
00:42:52.320 --> 00:42:55.760
near the you know, maybe they're
they're trying to get in or out,

483
00:42:55.960 --> 00:43:01.840
and people are grouped together and people
are talking and things start, and then

484
00:43:02.000 --> 00:43:06.840
it just it went from there.
You literally had people that were running to

485
00:43:07.079 --> 00:43:13.079
different parts of the park and different
attractions and literally fighting there and then filming

486
00:43:13.119 --> 00:43:16.039
it, just upload and film it. There's so much stuff on on Twitter

487
00:43:16.280 --> 00:43:22.119
and I'm sure several of the other
other ones, but Twitter, I saw

488
00:43:22.239 --> 00:43:28.360
a just a parade of these videos
this morning, which, by the way,

489
00:43:28.400 --> 00:43:31.920
I guess if you had to pick
where the where is the peak location

490
00:43:32.119 --> 00:43:36.599
to have a throwdown inside an amusement
park, like doesn't have to be this

491
00:43:36.719 --> 00:43:38.920
one. Let's say you're at Disney, where would you most want to be

492
00:43:39.000 --> 00:43:44.519
involved in a melee? Where would
you least want to be involved? Maybe

493
00:43:44.559 --> 00:43:49.800
these are things to start thinking of
should you find yourself the opportunity. The

494
00:43:50.039 --> 00:43:53.920
crowd which consisted, primarily, according
to police, of high schoolers and then

495
00:43:54.440 --> 00:44:05.639
young adults college age. Let's see
where this started about six fifteen in the

496
00:44:06.119 --> 00:44:12.000
in the evening Saturday, so just
as things are winding down kicking into that

497
00:44:12.199 --> 00:44:15.079
you know, nice, it's nice. It was a little early in the

498
00:44:15.199 --> 00:44:20.280
year, but that's a nice time
to be at a fair amusement park.

499
00:44:20.320 --> 00:44:28.800
Some along those lines, and I
suspect it's probably a pop popular alternative for

500
00:44:29.039 --> 00:44:36.159
kids who would normally go to a
mall and just be burdens on society there,

501
00:44:36.239 --> 00:44:38.119
so they can go to the amusement
park and look, I was a

502
00:44:38.199 --> 00:44:43.760
burden on society back in the day. But I can't I can't even imagine

503
00:44:43.880 --> 00:44:50.679
just getting into a full scale melee
and filming all of it. And I

504
00:44:50.760 --> 00:44:52.960
don't know. I see people saying, well, this is you know,

505
00:44:52.039 --> 00:44:55.320
it's because it's six flags. Does
that make a difference. I don't know.

506
00:44:58.719 --> 00:45:04.719
Does Disney or Universal do a better
job of policing there, because we've

507
00:45:04.760 --> 00:45:13.360
seen videos of people going full throttle
in the Disney. The Georgia Bureau of

508
00:45:13.400 --> 00:45:19.239
Investigation, which is leading an investigation, said that the preliminary information showed that

509
00:45:19.559 --> 00:45:23.840
officers responding to assist with crowd controlled
near the park's entrance at the time.

510
00:45:24.000 --> 00:45:28.519
Eight different fights have been documented.
That's an understatement. If you look at

511
00:45:28.559 --> 00:45:35.519
the video there, at some point
multiple people began shooting. So this is

512
00:45:35.639 --> 00:45:40.880
after police arrived, so they got
called pre shooting and as people were running

513
00:45:42.480 --> 00:45:47.840
officers heard the shooting. One of
the rounds struck a patrol car. Actually,

514
00:45:49.880 --> 00:45:52.159
as officers identify where the shots were
coming from, they ran after people

515
00:45:52.159 --> 00:45:55.960
would run into the woods. During
the incident, one officer fired his weapon,

516
00:45:57.880 --> 00:46:01.400
hitting one minor. They would teenager
taking a Grady Hospital in Atlanta,

517
00:46:02.000 --> 00:46:07.159
but he was in a critical condition
on Sunday. The teenager's name not released.

518
00:46:07.360 --> 00:46:08.920
So this is why I'm telling you
this, because obviously there's going to

519
00:46:08.960 --> 00:46:14.760
be more to this story. As
the the police did not were not the

520
00:46:14.840 --> 00:46:19.360
ones who initially discharged their weapon,
but some series of something happened when they

521
00:46:19.400 --> 00:46:25.199
were pursuing those who they thought were
discharging a weapon. And I guess I'll

522
00:46:25.239 --> 00:46:30.760
be very interested to see if the
family holds a press conference or if frankly,

523
00:46:30.840 --> 00:46:34.880
the officer shot the wrong person or
the correct person or somebody who brandished

524
00:46:34.880 --> 00:46:37.599
a gun or whatever it was.
I don't think it was well received on

525
00:46:37.639 --> 00:46:44.360
the videos. It was an absolutely
chaotic situation. Park officials also pointed out

526
00:46:44.440 --> 00:46:47.719
that the actual shooting occurred on Self
Service Road, which is not a part

527
00:46:47.760 --> 00:46:52.960
of six Flegs, right, But
it's clear from the videos that this emanated

528
00:46:52.039 --> 00:47:00.360
from inside this Long Island. Specifically, it is a new high park.

529
00:47:00.599 --> 00:47:05.800
I guess for people I know,
we got I know we have our fair

530
00:47:05.880 --> 00:47:14.159
share of former New Yorkers listening.
So and a single family home there well

531
00:47:14.239 --> 00:47:23.559
that is where a let's see Denton
Gale and Margaret Grover. Okay, all

532
00:47:23.639 --> 00:47:30.280
right, so that is the names
are two individuals who have told a judge

533
00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:35.280
along with a document that, once
you learn the facts, is clearly a

534
00:47:35.400 --> 00:47:40.519
forgery. But they have a document
saying that they rented a place and it

535
00:47:40.719 --> 00:47:45.280
just so happened that they were able
to rent the place, this home,

536
00:47:45.719 --> 00:47:52.199
very nice home, for just fifteen
dollars a month, which, judging by

537
00:47:52.239 --> 00:47:55.000
the way that I just presented that
to you, is far in a way

538
00:47:55.760 --> 00:48:00.519
less than anything you're going to be
renting in that area, especially for a

539
00:48:00.599 --> 00:48:06.639
full home. But armed with that
information and what they claim is a two

540
00:48:06.760 --> 00:48:13.840
year lease agreement signed by the home's
former owner, and I say former that

541
00:48:13.880 --> 00:48:20.360
would be Edward Iacono, they claimed, hey, this is this is fine

542
00:48:21.559 --> 00:48:25.559
now. The neighbors and the former
owner's family, the former owner is dead,

543
00:48:25.639 --> 00:48:30.199
by the way, claim that no, they are in fact squatters.

544
00:48:31.960 --> 00:48:37.800
The couple who actually have a they
have a baby and a pitbull for you

545
00:48:37.880 --> 00:48:44.840
know, to squat with, said
that they have since they've taken ownership or

546
00:48:45.280 --> 00:48:49.280
possession, I should say, following
this lease agreement that they say they struck

547
00:48:49.400 --> 00:48:59.960
with Edward Iacono, who died in
twenty sixteen. The house had been empt

548
00:49:00.440 --> 00:49:07.199
and it had been empty because the
owner had fallen ill. In fact,

549
00:49:07.239 --> 00:49:13.079
I believe the house entered foreclosure about
that time. However, he soon passed

550
00:49:13.079 --> 00:49:15.920
away and the ownership of the home, even though it was in the process

551
00:49:16.000 --> 00:49:25.119
of foreclosure, then fell to his
offspring, and even though the home was

552
00:49:25.239 --> 00:49:31.400
transferred, they obviously did something to
stop the foreclosure process. They then found

553
00:49:31.480 --> 00:49:38.599
out, well, these people are
inside, and it turned into a whole

554
00:49:38.719 --> 00:49:45.639
thing. The couple who has been
in the home despite it having no heat,

555
00:49:45.800 --> 00:49:50.639
electricity, hot water, or working
bathrooms, so you can just imagine

556
00:49:50.760 --> 00:49:54.280
the damage that is being done,
told police they had signed the agreement when

557
00:49:54.840 --> 00:49:59.039
initially the homeowners had called and the
police said, it's out of our hands.

558
00:49:59.079 --> 00:50:01.480
There's nothing we could do. They
appear to have a lease. The

559
00:50:02.599 --> 00:50:06.920
officers are told, well, they
couldn't have a lease because the person who

560
00:50:07.000 --> 00:50:13.840
reportedly signed the lease is dead and
has been dead long before the date on

561
00:50:14.039 --> 00:50:16.760
there. The property, which is
valued at nearly a million dollars, so

562
00:50:17.000 --> 00:50:27.000
yeah, fifteen dollars rent please,
eventually fell to the possession of his wife

563
00:50:27.079 --> 00:50:32.159
and their two sons. However,
they all died before they were ever able

564
00:50:32.280 --> 00:50:36.880
to take ownership of the property.
Because these dirtbags who, by the way,

565
00:50:37.079 --> 00:50:42.480
drive a Porsche on My dad said, nah, this is our place.

566
00:50:42.599 --> 00:50:45.119
There's nothing you can do about it. In fact, it then gets

567
00:50:45.159 --> 00:50:49.480
worse. Le we play a little
audio from this insanity though. Okay,

568
00:50:49.559 --> 00:50:52.199
you're not mister Gail. Can I
leave you a message and get it to

569
00:50:52.280 --> 00:50:58.280
him? Clearly is mister Gale there? They're saying Edingale broke into a dead

570
00:50:58.360 --> 00:51:01.159
man's home for said dead man's name
on a rent to ole and duped the

571
00:51:01.400 --> 00:51:07.400
Nassau Housing court. Okay, so
you're not mister Gale. Oh, I'm

572
00:51:07.400 --> 00:51:13.599
a reporter with the New York Post. This is your property. It's not

573
00:51:14.119 --> 00:51:20.440
out of Aakano's property. He's dead. He went to the bank, all

574
00:51:20.519 --> 00:51:23.320
right, So we got mister Legally's
there. Now he didn't he didn't pull

575
00:51:23.400 --> 00:51:29.000
out the I'm a traveler thing,
but apparently there are some vibes of that

576
00:51:29.199 --> 00:51:35.199
with other interactions with police officers.
Every member of the family that has owned

577
00:51:35.239 --> 00:51:38.679
it has died now again unable to
ever realize, including this guy's wife.

578
00:51:39.039 --> 00:51:43.320
Now granted, the wife, it
appears, was in an assisted living facility,

579
00:51:43.360 --> 00:51:49.320
but the sons who then took possession
stopped the foreclosure process. Were never

580
00:51:49.400 --> 00:51:52.480
able to sell or occupy the home. They have been in a legal nightmare

581
00:51:52.639 --> 00:51:55.840
for years. And you know,
I always see these stories and they go,

582
00:51:55.960 --> 00:51:59.000
well, you know, they'll get
it, they'll get it cleared up

583
00:51:59.039 --> 00:52:06.360
pretty quick. Well obviously not.
In fact, even after police have been

584
00:52:06.400 --> 00:52:12.639
brought in through this whole process again
going back now years and the individual who

585
00:52:12.719 --> 00:52:16.800
is said to be squatting, who
has arrested see twice for unlicensed operation.

586
00:52:19.920 --> 00:52:24.639
So I'm not totally clear when you
say unlicensed operation? Was he renting it?

587
00:52:24.960 --> 00:52:29.000
Was he conducting business? And there
whis crazy? Is is it to

588
00:52:29.159 --> 00:52:32.559
charge you catch? And a homeowner
could catch for doing something that they're not

589
00:52:32.840 --> 00:52:37.920
zoned to be able doing out of
their house, And the government was willing

590
00:52:37.000 --> 00:52:44.360
to come in and arrest this dude
and cite him for stuff for using this

591
00:52:44.800 --> 00:52:50.280
home to conduct some sort of business
that he's not supposed to, but wouldn't

592
00:52:50.360 --> 00:52:55.800
handle the part where the home is
only in his possession illegally. They wouldn't

593
00:52:55.800 --> 00:53:02.559
do anything. So after everything had
gone down, video from nearby residents showing

594
00:53:02.639 --> 00:53:08.360
this guy literally running towards them,
screaming, banging on their door, yelling

595
00:53:08.480 --> 00:53:13.440
racial slurs, challenging trying to get
folks to come out inside and fight him,

596
00:53:14.000 --> 00:53:19.880
screaming cracker at everybody, turning the
pit bull loose on people who got

597
00:53:19.920 --> 00:53:23.119
too closed or might have creeped into
the yard. Then they go to court,

598
00:53:23.639 --> 00:53:28.840
right, and finally the now third
generation, the former owner of this

599
00:53:29.800 --> 00:53:32.119
says, all right, we're going
to court. Now's our day. We're

600
00:53:32.159 --> 00:53:37.840
finally going to get these people kicked
out. Obviously this is theft. And

601
00:53:37.960 --> 00:53:43.519
these idiots show up for court with
the same bogus legal document, and when

602
00:53:43.519 --> 00:53:49.079
it's pointed out, well, actually
that person's dead, their lawyer's argument is,

603
00:53:49.800 --> 00:53:52.480
well, maybe it wasn't that person
who signed the lease, maybe it

604
00:53:52.559 --> 00:53:57.400
was somebody pretending to be that person. And yeah, don't get me wrong,

605
00:53:57.440 --> 00:54:00.880
there are people, you know,
you see these scams on Craigslist and

606
00:54:00.679 --> 00:54:04.960
other places with rental properties. Right, they get some pictures of a home

607
00:54:05.000 --> 00:54:07.480
that's for seal on another website like
Zillow, and then they put an ad

608
00:54:07.519 --> 00:54:12.159
and they try to get people to
send them deposits without looking at the place.

609
00:54:13.320 --> 00:54:15.679
That's how that scam works. In
this case, they're saying, well,

610
00:54:15.840 --> 00:54:20.920
that might be who he got duped
by, but in reality it's the

611
00:54:20.960 --> 00:54:23.000
same documents. So they show up
and the judge goes, I have no

612
00:54:23.239 --> 00:54:32.000
choice but to allow them to stay. So yes, even though even though

613
00:54:32.280 --> 00:54:39.599
it is nobody debates that it wasn't
the homeowner who signed this, they still

614
00:54:39.679 --> 00:54:43.199
decided, well, there's nothing we
can do because we don't want to risk

615
00:54:43.239 --> 00:54:47.840
people being unhoused. So now it's
back in limbo. And by the way,

616
00:54:49.159 --> 00:54:53.079
the couple also was arrested again,
this time for acting in a manner

617
00:54:53.159 --> 00:54:58.440
injurious to a child, as well
as I think one of them kind of

618
00:54:58.519 --> 00:55:01.719
rest for resisting when they actually showed
up. So the government's getting theirs,

619
00:55:01.760 --> 00:55:07.119
they're charging with all those crimes,
and they're doing nothing for these homeowners who

620
00:55:07.320 --> 00:55:13.559
have been basically unable to use their
property for five years, had to make

621
00:55:13.599 --> 00:55:20.800
big payments, and probably are going
to be on the hook for some sort

622
00:55:20.880 --> 00:55:28.119
of substantial renovation project if they've been
occupying literally for years without electricity or running

623
00:55:28.199 --> 00:55:35.960
water. God only knows what's up
there. After nearly fifty neighbors showed up

624
00:55:36.000 --> 00:55:42.119
to court, also to city council
meetings, and even wrote letters on behalf

625
00:55:42.159 --> 00:55:45.280
of the homeowners explaining what's going on. The judge has decided, well,

626
00:55:45.440 --> 00:55:50.880
in this case, I got a
air on the side of making sure these

627
00:55:50.880 --> 00:55:53.400
folks stay in the house. So
back to square one. Have fun with

628
00:55:53.519 --> 00:55:58.840
that and drive it a Porsche the
whole time must be nice. Seven forty

629
00:55:58.920 --> 00:56:01.960
five. Who we got not Ray
stage today? Ken Moon in today?

630
00:56:02.000 --> 00:56:08.360
Because Ray is off every other week
on this sweet schedule. So oh man,

631
00:56:09.360 --> 00:56:12.960
what's going on? Sir? Did
he leave you an easy one?

632
00:56:13.000 --> 00:56:15.960
I guess is the question. It's
not too bad. We do have some

633
00:56:16.079 --> 00:56:20.360
showers and storms to deal with as
we head through midweek, but temperatures are

634
00:56:20.360 --> 00:56:23.239
pretty warm here as we start off
the business week, maybe not quite as

635
00:56:23.320 --> 00:56:27.719
warm as yesterday, where temperatures got
towards the mid seventies. I think we'll

636
00:56:27.719 --> 00:56:30.239
be right around the seventy degree mark
today. A little more cloudiness out there

637
00:56:30.320 --> 00:56:35.320
today, just a slight chance to
see some late day showers. Fifty Tonight,

638
00:56:35.480 --> 00:56:37.920
sunny skies, a few clouds and
low seventies Tomorrow, and then Tuesday

639
00:56:37.960 --> 00:56:42.320
night Wednesday, that's our best chance
to see some showers and storms here as

640
00:56:42.360 --> 00:56:45.960
we head through the week. High
temperatures on Wednesday middle sixties, mix the

641
00:56:45.000 --> 00:56:50.920
clouds in sunshine. Thursday high's near
seventy, partly sunny Friday, mid sixties

642
00:56:50.960 --> 00:56:53.760
and then another chance of rain Friday
night into Saturday. Okay, all right,

643
00:56:53.880 --> 00:56:57.559
we'll rinse a repeating an hour.
Thank you, sir, appreciate it,

644
00:56:57.880 --> 00:57:01.199
all right, And when we come
back, we've got a little follow

645
00:57:01.280 --> 00:57:05.519
up on a climate change story,
the CNN story. Look, I mean

646
00:57:07.960 --> 00:57:13.440
networks and media outlets are going to
speculate on their competition, but there's a

647
00:57:13.519 --> 00:57:19.639
lot of a lot of receipts in
this CNN article, and I would hate

648
00:57:19.719 --> 00:57:22.119
to think that they could be bankrupt
by the end of the year. But

649
00:57:23.239 --> 00:57:27.599
we'll explore, let you know what
it says, and get to all the

650
00:57:27.639 --> 00:57:31.320
rest coming up. Casey O Day
Radio program. Wow, this is this

651
00:57:31.440 --> 00:57:37.400
story is a doozy. This is
Missouri or Missouri or Misery, depending on

652
00:57:37.519 --> 00:57:45.239
how you pronounce it. A one
of the folks who wanted in on the

653
00:57:45.599 --> 00:57:52.679
Republican primary for governor. What is
this guy's name, Darryl mclann in the

654
00:57:52.840 --> 00:58:00.360
third Darryl Leon mclan in the third. Anyway, he filed for governor as

655
00:58:00.400 --> 00:58:12.320
a Republican. However, the Republican
Party they eighty six that, so he's

656
00:58:12.360 --> 00:58:17.480
been officially booted by the GOP in
Missouri as vying for the gubernatorial seat.

657
00:58:17.480 --> 00:58:22.480
Doesn't mean he can't run, but
the Republican Party says it will not give

658
00:58:22.559 --> 00:58:32.360
him his denomination. The objection,
apparently this dude is it's no secret he's

659
00:58:32.440 --> 00:58:38.079
got some clan affiliation. There is
some debate as to how much. However,

660
00:58:39.039 --> 00:58:46.400
photos and even a video emerged showing
him throwing Nazi salutes and thumbs up

661
00:58:46.639 --> 00:58:53.239
in front of a burning cross at
some sort of event. There's just a

662
00:58:53.320 --> 00:58:58.719
whole lot of stuff, and during
some initial discussions he didn't deny it.

663
00:58:58.880 --> 00:59:06.760
However, this is where things get
weird, because let's see here, mcclann

664
00:59:06.840 --> 00:59:09.159
and one of eight people fillowed a
petition this week to run for in the

665
00:59:09.280 --> 00:59:16.079
Republican primary. I had these photos
were common knowledge. The Republican Party said,

666
00:59:16.079 --> 00:59:21.599
we condemn any association with hay groups, taking immediate action. There you

667
00:59:21.679 --> 00:59:31.599
go, it's the explanation that's got
me. The candidate who had run previously

668
00:59:31.679 --> 00:59:44.000
described himself as a pro white man
horseman political prisoner activists dedicated to conservative values.

669
00:59:45.840 --> 00:59:50.960
Has been photographed with multiple KKK leaders, as well as the infamous cross

670
00:59:51.039 --> 00:59:55.760
burning photos, which show him doing
either a and he's not in any regalia.

671
00:59:57.559 --> 01:00:00.639
People around him are, but he's
just he's in you know, standard

672
01:00:01.199 --> 01:00:05.960
close and uh. In one picture
he's doing a sig hole saloot, and

673
01:00:06.000 --> 01:00:12.119
then another one he's doing like the
buddy Jesus pose. However, a person

674
01:00:12.280 --> 01:00:16.880
close to the candidate said that at
that particular incident, he had shown up

675
01:00:16.920 --> 01:00:27.360
to the event but didn't know there
was a cross burning. Okay, Ross,

676
01:00:27.440 --> 01:00:30.920
Let's say let's say that you had
let's see, we had an event

677
01:00:30.039 --> 01:00:36.320
you needed to go to, right, a remote visit. Yeah, okay,

678
01:00:36.360 --> 01:00:38.800
so let's broadcast, right, pack
av let's get going. You got

679
01:00:38.880 --> 01:00:42.320
the van, you got all the
gear, you gonna there's gonna be a

680
01:00:42.400 --> 01:00:49.079
fun two hours. And you roll
out there and there's a bunch of dudes

681
01:00:49.159 --> 01:00:52.559
in full clamor gellia burning across.
Are you doing a thumbs up buddy Jesus

682
01:00:52.719 --> 01:00:55.760
pose in front of that thing even
though you didn't know what was part of

683
01:00:55.800 --> 01:01:00.320
the program. So what I'm probably
doing is taking a photo. You are

684
01:01:00.400 --> 01:01:01.880
taking the photo, well, just
so I can send it to man and

685
01:01:02.000 --> 01:01:05.000
be like this, no, no, no, just so I can you

686
01:01:05.079 --> 01:01:06.960
know, take a photo and send
it to management and be like, hey,

687
01:01:07.000 --> 01:01:08.360
this is why we did not do
the broadcast? Are you doing it?

688
01:01:08.480 --> 01:01:12.199
We're doing duck lips. I am
not in front of the camera.

689
01:01:12.960 --> 01:01:15.840
Well, oh well I want to
be a job number one. You're not

690
01:01:16.079 --> 01:01:21.760
in front of the camera, correct, all right, you're not just rolling

691
01:01:21.800 --> 01:01:23.199
with it. It's my point that
I'm making. And I mean, if

692
01:01:23.239 --> 01:01:27.079
I was pushed in front of the
camera, like forcefully, like you need

693
01:01:27.159 --> 01:01:30.079
to take a photo here, I
believe the look on my face would be

694
01:01:30.599 --> 01:01:32.679
of a disgust and terror. It
wouldn't be like hey, yeah, yeah,

695
01:01:34.079 --> 01:01:37.360
you'd be like, and this is
my this is my end story right

696
01:01:37.400 --> 01:01:39.639
here, this is this is it? Yeah, he went he went a

697
01:01:39.719 --> 01:01:45.880
different route after let's see and and
oh, by the way, I'm sorry.

698
01:01:45.920 --> 01:01:50.199
It's two things. One the photos. Whoops, that's the thing.

699
01:01:50.639 --> 01:01:57.840
However, he also accepted an honorary
membership at the same event. So at

700
01:01:58.199 --> 01:02:02.199
what a fake degrees? You know, these fake degrees that they give people

701
01:02:02.400 --> 01:02:07.000
right Well, you know we're gonna
say, I'm sorry, no, I'm

702
01:02:07.039 --> 01:02:09.000
just saying so like they gave him
like a hey, we're gonna give you

703
01:02:09.039 --> 01:02:14.960
this this reward for being here.
Well, it's an honorary membership. Man

704
01:02:15.639 --> 01:02:19.000
on the member he doesn't have to
pay probably, so he's saving money there.

705
01:02:19.639 --> 01:02:22.920
Yeah, yeah, no, how's
this like, you know what's uh?

706
01:02:23.880 --> 01:02:29.760
You know what's that? Idiot?
Oh? Who am I thinking of

707
01:02:29.920 --> 01:02:35.280
the Is it Kendy Ebrahim Kenny X
Right? That guy's got more honorary degrees

708
01:02:36.400 --> 01:02:39.920
in more things, but not actual
degrees on all of these topics. He

709
01:02:40.000 --> 01:02:45.000
was bragging he's got like ten of
them. I got honorary degrees from all

710
01:02:45.039 --> 01:02:46.840
these Yeah. Yeah, it's just
like that, but it's not a real

711
01:02:46.920 --> 01:02:51.199
degree. I guess it's the argument
the campaign would make kind of a special

712
01:02:51.239 --> 01:02:54.960
Monday, at least from a calendar
standpoint. Tomorrow is the primary in North

713
01:02:55.039 --> 01:03:02.719
Carolina and apparently Constructions and directly adjacent
to me, so god knows what's happening

714
01:03:02.760 --> 01:03:07.039
over there. But hey, that's
how we started Monday. Ross said the

715
01:03:07.119 --> 01:03:12.719
log was also a little jack so
everyone's getting it, but it is in

716
01:03:12.920 --> 01:03:15.960
these lead up days or in the
day before, in the day of.

717
01:03:15.239 --> 01:03:21.280
One of the things that we do
around these parts is if somebody is running

718
01:03:21.320 --> 01:03:25.119
for office, we make available the
airwaves to chat for a few minutes.

719
01:03:25.599 --> 01:03:32.119
And the way we kind of divvy
it up is today statewide races and federal

720
01:03:32.280 --> 01:03:37.840
races, so you know, the
congressional seats primarily, and then obviously governor,

721
01:03:38.000 --> 01:03:43.840
Council of State and that, and
then tomorrow will roll in candidates for

722
01:03:44.760 --> 01:03:47.119
you know, House, Senate seats
things like that, as well as local

723
01:03:47.400 --> 01:03:52.440
offices. So if you are a
candidate and you want to chit chat for

724
01:03:52.480 --> 01:03:57.199
a few minutes, say hello,
let me ask you obnoxious questions. Call

725
01:03:57.320 --> 01:04:00.880
in rossill VETU. We're not scheduled
times. You call in, you get

726
01:04:01.280 --> 01:04:05.440
but on hold like the people you
want to represent, and then we do

727
01:04:05.599 --> 01:04:10.480
this thing. So that's how we
do it, phone number eight eight eight

728
01:04:10.639 --> 01:04:15.559
nine three four seven eight seven four
and Roussell Ross will go through vetting because

729
01:04:15.960 --> 01:04:18.639
I'm assuming you as a candidate don't
want some call someone calling in and pretending

730
01:04:18.679 --> 01:04:23.519
to be you and being like I
love and then insert something. It'll be

731
01:04:23.559 --> 01:04:26.559
at an ad so he'll handle that
and then we'll get to it. So,

732
01:04:27.039 --> 01:04:29.880
speaking of Council of State, we
do have a couple of folks holding.

733
01:04:29.960 --> 01:04:33.039
Let's start with Anthony Street, who
is running for a state auditor.

734
01:04:33.119 --> 01:04:36.679
Good morning to you, sir,
How are you doing? Good morning?

735
01:04:36.760 --> 01:04:41.039
How are you? I'm pretty good? All right, So you want Beth

736
01:04:41.119 --> 01:04:45.559
Wood's old job. You ever monster
truck to state car, sir. No,

737
01:04:45.840 --> 01:04:48.000
sir. I've been asked questions add
all over the state, and I

738
01:04:48.039 --> 01:04:50.480
always say I'm not a drinking man, but if I was, I'd call

739
01:04:50.559 --> 01:04:55.719
the uber, okay, in monster
truck the uber or just have them drive.

740
01:04:56.960 --> 01:05:01.280
I got to follow up your politicians, Okay, let's have them all

741
01:05:01.400 --> 01:05:04.920
right, with that out of the
way, State, I think most people

742
01:05:05.000 --> 01:05:09.000
don't even know what the state auditor
does. I'm gonna be honest with you,

743
01:05:09.239 --> 01:05:12.280
or maybe they should be doing,
and then they don't do. And

744
01:05:12.719 --> 01:05:16.280
I think really only thought about the
position because all the shenanigans around that story.

745
01:05:16.400 --> 01:05:20.719
But state auditor has a lot of
important roles. Let's talk about why.

746
01:05:21.559 --> 01:05:27.760
I guess now in an uncontested race, whoever is in there is going

747
01:05:27.800 --> 01:05:30.440
to be able to really shape the
office for what they want it to be.

748
01:05:30.559 --> 01:05:34.679
And why you think that should be
you well, As a physical concervative,

749
01:05:34.719 --> 01:05:40.000
I will always been concerned about waste
will spending in government at all levels,

750
01:05:40.519 --> 01:05:43.480
not just at our federal level,
but also at our state got down

751
01:05:43.519 --> 01:05:46.480
to our municipalities and school boards and
kind of commissioner of boards, and so

752
01:05:47.559 --> 01:05:51.719
I have always been interested in the
career in the field of public service,

753
01:05:53.320 --> 01:05:58.880
have a master's career of public administration, and I just feel less the office

754
01:05:59.039 --> 01:06:02.159
rocket best serve the citizens of tax
payers in North Carolina. Okay, well,

755
01:06:02.199 --> 01:06:04.880
then how how does the auditor do
that? So if you're sitting around

756
01:06:04.920 --> 01:06:10.199
your office and there's something going on
and I'm trying to think of incidents where

757
01:06:10.239 --> 01:06:13.519
the state's coming, well, like
Princeville, I guess was an occasion where

758
01:06:13.559 --> 01:06:15.760
as a local municipality of the state
coming and do stuff. What do you

759
01:06:15.840 --> 01:06:20.280
see as the auditor's role in in
doing that and how do you accomplish it?

760
01:06:21.719 --> 01:06:26.920
Well, he is she is charged
by the constitutions will being responsible for

761
01:06:27.039 --> 01:06:30.760
review and how of all the public
spending in the state. And the person

762
01:06:30.840 --> 01:06:33.920
that says that office has a great
amount of power and that they can subtain

763
01:06:33.960 --> 01:06:40.280
the documents from from from any agency
in the state government agency and review where

764
01:06:40.320 --> 01:06:44.599
your tax dollars are being spent and
then report to the state legislature and the

765
01:06:45.079 --> 01:06:51.679
tax payers on lo here she finds
out and empower and uh, an in

766
01:06:51.880 --> 01:06:57.440
formed electric is an empowered electure.
So I see it as as a as

767
01:06:57.519 --> 01:07:00.800
an appicite needs to be in constitute
unication with the tax players to let them

768
01:07:00.840 --> 01:07:04.960
know where their dollars are going so
they can call up the people they vote

769
01:07:04.960 --> 01:07:11.719
for him and raise king until thanks
get straightened out. Oh well, and

770
01:07:11.840 --> 01:07:15.760
I'm with that. What about the
idea of whoever's elected, maybe you or

771
01:07:15.800 --> 01:07:18.239
whomever it is, going through and
figuring out all the COVID money went.

772
01:07:19.119 --> 01:07:23.199
But that seems like a pretty good, pretty good job. Is that something

773
01:07:23.239 --> 01:07:26.239
that you think that you, as
a state auditor or be interested in doing?

774
01:07:26.280 --> 01:07:28.840
And legally, is that something you
can review even though it was,

775
01:07:29.039 --> 01:07:34.920
you know, during an emergency declaration? Well, there's something I would would

776
01:07:34.920 --> 01:07:41.960
be interested in doing, because I
was always very skeptical of the narrative that

777
01:07:42.079 --> 01:07:50.519
we were so dear in the COVID
COVID pandemic, Right, So I mean

778
01:07:50.679 --> 01:07:54.159
is that? But is that?
I guess my quiet? My last question

779
01:07:54.199 --> 01:07:57.079
to you, is that something that
you think is within the purview of the

780
01:07:57.119 --> 01:08:01.599
Auditor's office to be able to do. I think that all sure would have

781
01:08:01.760 --> 01:08:06.360
the legal authority to sign out a
great deal of that. Yeah, somebody

782
01:08:06.440 --> 01:08:11.840
needs to is is my point.
You got a website, sir, it's

783
01:08:12.000 --> 01:08:15.159
down at the monument, But we'd
have to have it back up. Okay,

784
01:08:15.440 --> 01:08:18.119
all right, well I appreciate the
call, Anthony Street calling in.

785
01:08:18.359 --> 01:08:23.000
Uh, and we'll talk. Well, we'll see how tomorrow goes and go

786
01:08:23.159 --> 01:08:25.520
from there. Thank you, sir, Yes, sir, thank you for

787
01:08:25.880 --> 01:08:30.760
tom Yeah, absolutely all right,
And then I clicked the right thing there

788
01:08:30.840 --> 01:08:33.119
can I actually put fine on hold? Hey, look at me? All

789
01:08:33.239 --> 01:08:36.840
right? Yeah, yeah, let's
get more one more in here. Seth

790
01:08:36.880 --> 01:08:42.800
Woodall's running for lieutenant governor, another
race where there's not going to be an

791
01:08:42.840 --> 01:08:47.840
incumbent, and uh, it'll be
very very interesting in North Carolina to see

792
01:08:47.840 --> 01:08:51.279
how the statewide races pan out.
So I can then listen to people say

793
01:08:51.319 --> 01:08:54.880
that they were gerrymandered, because they'll
understand what the word means. So,

794
01:08:55.600 --> 01:08:58.439
uh, let's chat with Seth here
real quick, Seth, how are you

795
01:08:58.479 --> 01:09:01.359
doing this morning? I'm good,
Casey, how are you? I'm good.

796
01:09:01.479 --> 01:09:03.840
Let me ask you the question I
think a lot of people ask when

797
01:09:03.840 --> 01:09:10.640
they hear about lieutenant governor's job,
The hell does lieutenant governor do? I

798
01:09:11.119 --> 01:09:14.479
have done this before and mark this, so I would hope somebody coming in

799
01:09:14.680 --> 01:09:18.039
has pretty clear a vision of what
they think the office is. So tell

800
01:09:18.079 --> 01:09:23.479
me what yours is there for sure. So there's fourteen statutory duties. I

801
01:09:23.720 --> 01:09:26.119
can go through those if you want
me to, or I can just just

802
01:09:26.239 --> 01:09:29.720
leave it at Yeah, I mean
put your vision for for what do you

803
01:09:29.720 --> 01:09:31.079
think the rule is? Like,
I understand the Board of Education all that

804
01:09:31.159 --> 01:09:33.640
stuff, but you've got to have
something that's in your craw that makes you

805
01:09:33.720 --> 01:09:36.520
want to do this. So what
is that? Well, basically, basically,

806
01:09:36.560 --> 01:09:40.720
the Lieutenant governor is going to act
as a liaison between the governor and

807
01:09:40.880 --> 01:09:45.039
the General Assembly. So that's that's
kind of what the obligations are going to

808
01:09:45.079 --> 01:09:47.239
be. So it's going to be
a lot of negotiating, a lot of

809
01:09:48.640 --> 01:09:53.000
convincing, but working directly with our
governor, who I am certain is going

810
01:09:53.039 --> 01:09:57.600
to be Mark Robinson. But we
gotta gotta dispense with all of the liberal

811
01:09:58.399 --> 01:10:01.159
politicians we have starting at the time
and get people in like Mark, and

812
01:10:01.359 --> 01:10:06.359
thankfully we have a super majority in
the uh Journal Assembly, so you know,

813
01:10:06.560 --> 01:10:11.239
work directly with all of those fine
politicians to make sure that we can

814
01:10:11.439 --> 01:10:15.840
advance our conservative causes. Okay,
and uh, I guess the one.

815
01:10:15.199 --> 01:10:18.359
The follow up is what if it's
not Mark? Because if there's one thing

816
01:10:18.439 --> 01:10:23.199
I've noticed it's that nobody wants to
work with anybody unless they're literally forced to,

817
01:10:23.279 --> 01:10:26.880
and even in the case of people
within the same party. And yeah,

818
01:10:27.039 --> 01:10:29.079
well that's you know, so what
do you do with the Josh Stein

819
01:10:29.199 --> 01:10:32.279
in there? Because Ray Cooper ain't
talking to the Republican Council of State people

820
01:10:32.600 --> 01:10:35.640
does whatever he wants, and that's
that's unfortunate, that's unfortunate. But that's

821
01:10:35.680 --> 01:10:38.920
not going to keep me from stopping. So they're going to hear from me

822
01:10:39.000 --> 01:10:41.640
on a daily basis, regularly,
and they're just going to have to tell

823
01:10:41.680 --> 01:10:45.760
me no, okay, but yeah, go ahead, I'm sorry. They

824
01:10:46.359 --> 01:10:50.960
it's it's a shame that partisan politics
is developed to where it is today.

825
01:10:51.600 --> 01:10:55.319
Uh. And I think that's what
you know, separates me from a lot

826
01:10:55.359 --> 01:10:58.319
of the others. I'm not a
politician. We need to we need uh.

827
01:10:58.800 --> 01:11:02.159
Mark Robinson said it Winny patriots,
not politicians. And so they're gonna

828
01:11:02.159 --> 01:11:04.720
hear from me on a regular basis
and they can tell me no as much

829
01:11:04.720 --> 01:11:09.920
as they want. But with that
being said, fully convinced Mark Robinson,

830
01:11:09.960 --> 01:11:13.760
we'll be our next governor. What's
your back at your lawyer? Right?

831
01:11:14.600 --> 01:11:16.399
Yeah, I'm I'm gonna party trade. Yeah, I don't hang out around

832
01:11:16.399 --> 01:11:21.239
your day. You're from Eden,
just for in case folks wondering. So

833
01:11:21.960 --> 01:11:27.439
I you know, the cliche is
you look at politicians, half of them

834
01:11:27.479 --> 01:11:31.760
are lawyers. But it does provide
a little bit of upside. So let's

835
01:11:31.800 --> 01:11:36.319
talk about especially the Lieutenant Governor's office
when you're talking about liaising, so much

836
01:11:36.359 --> 01:11:42.840
of that is politicking and and uh
and just trying to wrangle folks. Uh.

837
01:11:43.760 --> 01:11:45.560
You feel you feel your background sets
you apart because you're not the only

838
01:11:45.640 --> 01:11:49.199
one on the ballot obviously, so
yeah, there's there's several others. But

839
01:11:49.319 --> 01:11:51.199
yeah, I mean I think that
sets me apart. You know, I've

840
01:11:51.199 --> 01:11:55.600
been doing this since two thousand and
six, and I've been quite successful at

841
01:11:55.640 --> 01:12:00.720
it and will continue to negotiate and
whatever means I have to. So I

842
01:12:00.800 --> 01:12:05.199
do believe that my experience since two
thousand and six has basically given me the

843
01:12:05.319 --> 01:12:11.680
ability to negotiate with whoever. I
mean, honestly, I've negotiate with some

844
01:12:11.800 --> 01:12:15.800
of the or I get some of
the largest companies in the country against other

845
01:12:15.840 --> 01:12:18.680
attorneys, and so, you know, I think that if you ask anybody

846
01:12:18.760 --> 01:12:21.680
who's ever been represented by me,
they would tell you that I've got a

847
01:12:21.720 --> 01:12:26.039
true gift in that. Well,
we're in an era of law. Fair

848
01:12:26.199 --> 01:12:30.800
right to use the term that a
lot of people are seeing show up now,

849
01:12:30.880 --> 01:12:34.399
But basically it's the suit of your
blue where you have judges. If

850
01:12:34.439 --> 01:12:38.159
you just find the right judge,
you can get stuff done. And I

851
01:12:38.279 --> 01:12:41.399
never felt the Republican Party had a
good answer for that. Hell, it

852
01:12:41.520 --> 01:12:45.560
took outsiders to come in and slap
Josh Stein's hand down over him trying to

853
01:12:45.560 --> 01:12:48.439
sit there with Mark Ellias and do
whatever he wants. But ultimately, lawsuits

854
01:12:48.479 --> 01:12:53.159
are the name of the game.
So how do Republicans start to counteract that,

855
01:12:54.159 --> 01:12:56.720
you know, if you're part of
the Council of State, Because they

856
01:12:56.720 --> 01:12:59.880
don't seem to be doing a good
job. So well, we've got to

857
01:12:59.880 --> 01:13:02.680
stand up to it and be bold
and fight back. I mean, so

858
01:13:02.960 --> 01:13:06.479
if there's going to be lawsuits filed
by people like Josh Stin, you know

859
01:13:06.560 --> 01:13:12.199
we're just going to have to defend
those vigorously on behalf of the Republican Party.

860
01:13:12.479 --> 01:13:15.479
I mean, that is the only
answer is to fight back. You've

861
01:13:15.479 --> 01:13:20.079
got to fight fire with fire.
Okay, So should they be filing lawsuits?

862
01:13:20.159 --> 01:13:24.920
I mean they file a lot of
motions and response, but they don't

863
01:13:24.960 --> 01:13:30.079
file their own lawsuits very well.
I'm not saying that we need to jump

864
01:13:30.159 --> 01:13:34.000
on board with the liberal idea to
sue every time that you're just dissatisfied with

865
01:13:34.119 --> 01:13:39.479
the result. But there's certainly circumstances
that were justify and if the statute and

866
01:13:39.600 --> 01:13:44.359
law you know, allows and it
should be litigated, we feel strongly about

867
01:13:44.439 --> 01:13:47.520
then we should file. But I
am again, I'm not one of the

868
01:13:47.560 --> 01:13:51.960
attorneys who are running around filing lawsuits
for the sake of filing lawsuits. I

869
01:13:53.039 --> 01:13:58.960
think a lot of a lot of
what's going on with the Democratic Party filing

870
01:13:59.039 --> 01:14:03.239
lawsuits over voter ride d and they're
just trying to muddy the waters to get

871
01:14:03.279 --> 01:14:09.520
their way. So again, I'm
not at all supporting the idea that more

872
01:14:09.600 --> 01:14:13.159
lawsuits need to be filed, but
we've got to defend them vigorously, and

873
01:14:13.279 --> 01:14:16.079
if necessary, we do need to
file lawsuits. Got a website, Seth

874
01:14:16.920 --> 01:14:20.319
Yeah, sethwall dot com. All
right, that's Wood, like you know

875
01:14:20.399 --> 01:14:25.840
wood and then all a LFO.
All right, well, good luck to

876
01:14:25.880 --> 01:14:29.119
you, sir, and we'll see
how it goes tomorrow. Okay, all

877
01:14:29.199 --> 01:14:32.119
right, thanks Kasey, all right, thank you, kc O Day Radio

878
01:14:32.359 --> 01:14:36.119
program phone number eight eight eight nine
three four seven eight seven four. Like

879
01:14:36.199 --> 01:14:41.760
I said, we're doing the the
candidate thing, and oh look at that.

880
01:14:41.840 --> 01:14:44.640
All right, So we got more
of those coming up, plus quite

881
01:14:44.640 --> 01:14:47.279
a few stories to get into.
We'll do it next thing on cac O

882
01:14:47.399 --> 01:14:54.640
Day Radio program. As we sit
a day ahead of of the primary in

883
01:14:54.760 --> 01:15:00.119
North Carolina Super Tuesday, we're all
all up in that we're doing that thing.

884
01:15:00.199 --> 01:15:02.600
We normally do try to talk to
candidates. We'd like to reward those

885
01:15:02.640 --> 01:15:06.520
who listen to the show, so
we just we provide the opportunity. Today

886
01:15:06.560 --> 01:15:11.880
we're doing federal offices statewide, and
then tomorrow we'll get into more of the

887
01:15:11.960 --> 01:15:15.079
local races. And if you got
an ear to the radio or eye to

888
01:15:15.159 --> 01:15:19.720
the TV, or you drive past
billboards, you're probably aware that there's a

889
01:15:19.800 --> 01:15:28.079
bit of a contentious primary race in
the first District and this will likely be

890
01:15:28.680 --> 01:15:31.399
when you get into the general.
This is likely going to be the most

891
01:15:31.479 --> 01:15:40.960
competitive of the congressional races. So
this is not exactly the old school division.

892
01:15:41.600 --> 01:15:46.199
You know, first District going back
to two cycles ago or had this

893
01:15:46.359 --> 01:15:50.960
octopush from Durham over the coast,
but it is a broad territory. And

894
01:15:51.520 --> 01:15:57.039
one of the folks running the primary
is Lori buck Out, and she joins

895
01:15:57.119 --> 01:16:00.159
us, good morning to you.
How you doing today? Hey, good

896
01:16:00.239 --> 01:16:03.840
morning, how you doing? I'm
pretty good, Lori buck Out, Yeah,

897
01:16:04.039 --> 01:16:08.640
yeah, it's uh. You guys
got a doozy going on over there,

898
01:16:08.880 --> 01:16:13.159
easily the most the most ads I
think we have running on the show.

899
01:16:13.239 --> 01:16:15.079
I got to ask you just because
I have you, and in fact,

900
01:16:15.119 --> 01:16:18.760
I'm going to do this with audio. I want to know. Let

901
01:16:18.800 --> 01:16:21.720
me flip over to my button bar. Here here we go. All right,

902
01:16:21.800 --> 01:16:27.880
so this is an ad that's currently
being run by a pack. Is

903
01:16:27.960 --> 01:16:31.039
it the Rolling Pa? Well,
we'll find hold on, I got it

904
01:16:31.479 --> 01:16:33.640
in the ad here. I just
want to know why you murdered all the

905
01:16:33.680 --> 01:16:38.079
branch Davidians. Hang on, all
right, so here we here, hold

906
01:16:38.119 --> 01:16:40.680
on, here we go. All
right, here is the spot. But

907
01:16:40.760 --> 01:16:43.119
I no, seriously, I do
want to ask about this because this is

908
01:16:43.199 --> 01:16:45.000
one of the things that's out there. But here's the spot. And just

909
01:16:45.119 --> 01:16:50.840
emerged about Laurie Buckout's role pushing Democrat
propaganda for the Clinton White House. We

910
01:16:50.920 --> 01:16:55.439
now know that liberal Laurie not only
applied for the Clinton job, but the

911
01:16:55.520 --> 01:17:00.359
Clinton white House betted and selected personnel
very carefully. Liberal worked with the Clintons

912
01:17:00.439 --> 01:17:04.439
for three years. During that time, her office was accused of covering for

913
01:17:04.520 --> 01:17:11.039
the Clintons and was cited by congressional
investigators for holding back information about the Monica

914
01:17:11.119 --> 01:17:14.439
Lewinsky scandal and the Waco murder House. Oh that's right, you hit the

915
01:17:14.520 --> 01:17:16.199
dress too, all right, So
no, but but seriously, people hear

916
01:17:16.279 --> 01:17:23.159
all of this stuff out there,
and you know, everything is like what

917
01:17:23.399 --> 01:17:26.600
when you look into it. A
lot of times it's you're getting part of

918
01:17:26.640 --> 01:17:29.760
the story. But it is an
ad and I understand that. But the

919
01:17:29.840 --> 01:17:33.239
reality is, this is what is
the most common thing I hear that you

920
01:17:33.399 --> 01:17:39.359
served within the Clinton White House or
during the administration and as a result,

921
01:17:40.119 --> 01:17:44.800
you're way too moderate and you came
down here just around mind. But no,

922
01:17:45.039 --> 01:17:49.439
I is there is there truth even
during the I guess the time you

923
01:17:49.520 --> 01:17:54.079
were working there. I mean,
what's going on here? Oh? Man?

924
01:17:54.239 --> 01:17:56.399
You know, first off, I
want to say, that's just sick

925
01:17:56.439 --> 01:18:00.279
and unhanded, and that uh the
one and could not be more desperate,

926
01:18:00.359 --> 01:18:04.079
And it's kind of sad when you're
going after you know, frankly are going

927
01:18:04.119 --> 01:18:08.720
after a decorated combat vet in the
veteran but here so I'll explain the deal

928
01:18:08.800 --> 01:18:14.680
on that. It is disgusting though, So by line is the military serves

929
01:18:14.720 --> 01:18:18.159
a whole lot of people and you'll
see them everywhere. So back in the

930
01:18:18.319 --> 01:18:26.399
nineties I got selected to serve with
the White House Military Office. So here's

931
01:18:26.439 --> 01:18:29.840
what they do. The folks who
fly Air Force one, they're all Air

932
01:18:29.920 --> 01:18:32.880
Force. They work for that office. All the folks who fly the Marine

933
01:18:32.920 --> 01:18:41.239
Helicopter Squadron for the President, they're
all with that office. The drivers that

934
01:18:41.439 --> 01:18:45.560
drive staff around are with that office. The folks who work the National Security

935
01:18:45.640 --> 01:18:49.880
Council, and they're all folks in
uniform and they're all a political The millaid

936
01:18:49.920 --> 01:18:54.720
who carries the football, the nuclear
football. I mean, you know,

937
01:18:54.840 --> 01:18:59.000
there are five military aids and I
was a backup to those. As a

938
01:18:59.039 --> 01:19:00.760
matter of fact, of something happened, we would step up and take care

939
01:19:00.800 --> 01:19:06.960
of that. But your job is
to serve the commander in chief. So

940
01:19:08.680 --> 01:19:12.319
it was actually like a big deal
to be selected for that. And the

941
01:19:12.439 --> 01:19:17.199
communications you do are telecommunications. You
do phone, radio, emergency backup,

942
01:19:17.760 --> 01:19:21.760
making sure that the president can access
nuclear relief. If he needs to write,

943
01:19:23.079 --> 01:19:26.319
we provide communications to the Secret Service. Like if you see them walking

944
01:19:26.359 --> 01:19:29.960
around talking into their sleeves, we
do all the radios for that to make

945
01:19:30.039 --> 01:19:31.880
sure that they can talk and protect
the President, the commander in chief.

946
01:19:32.479 --> 01:19:36.199
So telephones, radio, I mean, all that sort of stuff. Even

947
01:19:36.279 --> 01:19:40.960
drivers are provided by the military.
But a couple of things. Number One,

948
01:19:41.600 --> 01:19:44.920
I'm a lifelong Republican. My first
vote ever was for Ronald Reagan.

949
01:19:45.079 --> 01:19:48.880
Voted nothing but Republican ever since then. Number Two, you are prohibited strictly

950
01:19:49.279 --> 01:19:57.920
by law from behaving in any political
in any political way when you are inside

951
01:19:58.359 --> 01:20:01.239
the White House working for the Command
in Chief and his staff. Number Three,

952
01:20:02.760 --> 01:20:06.920
I wasn't even there when Monica Lewinsky
was there. I was there before

953
01:20:08.039 --> 01:20:12.399
that. I don't even know what
that's about. Number four, it's a

954
01:20:12.479 --> 01:20:15.720
four year tour. I left a
year early because I was so disgusted by

955
01:20:15.760 --> 01:20:19.239
the corruption in the White House that
you just see even though you're not a

956
01:20:19.279 --> 01:20:23.960
part of it. So in fact, a lot of folks did. It

957
01:20:24.079 --> 01:20:29.119
was a very unpopular assignment to have. We thought it was going to be

958
01:20:29.199 --> 01:20:32.600
George Bush going in and you're proudly
serving a good conservative commander in chief,

959
01:20:33.439 --> 01:20:35.680
but we saw a lot of corruption
and I hated it, so we left

960
01:20:35.720 --> 01:20:41.279
a year early. So you know
what, though, I don't get anyone

961
01:20:41.319 --> 01:20:45.920
who's in the White House serving in
that job a hard time because it's a

962
01:20:45.000 --> 01:20:47.920
proud thing to do, to serve
the commander in chief if he's honorable,

963
01:20:48.159 --> 01:20:51.399
and you're doing a lot of stuff, you know, you know Dan Bongino,

964
01:20:53.119 --> 01:20:56.119
Yeah, does that ring a bell? Yeah, make a serv of

965
01:20:56.199 --> 01:20:58.600
guy. I know him as a
secret service guy, but yes, yes,

966
01:20:59.319 --> 01:21:03.119
so a service guy who no doubt
served a bunch of Democrats and Republicans

967
01:21:03.159 --> 01:21:06.359
because he had a career, right
right. I saw him on Obama.

968
01:21:06.840 --> 01:21:11.439
There's pictures, there's pictures of him
obviously holding the car door for Obama.

969
01:21:11.560 --> 01:21:14.279
So yeah, that's right, it's
I mean, it's just part of the

970
01:21:14.399 --> 01:21:16.880
job, you know. So do
you hate him for that? Well,

971
01:21:17.000 --> 01:21:20.520
but I would point out that mister
Vinman, I mean, in the same

972
01:21:20.680 --> 01:21:26.279
capacity, right, was serving in
it well, but serving in a military

973
01:21:26.359 --> 01:21:30.720
capacity, and that's you couldn't call
that unpartisan. So that's why I asked

974
01:21:30.760 --> 01:21:33.119
these questions. And so yeah,
let me let me tell you what.

975
01:21:33.439 --> 01:21:38.760
Nope, but you're right, and
that Vinment is a nasty guy. Probably

976
01:21:38.880 --> 01:21:42.520
might even be a member of Congress. You're pretty quick, right because he's

977
01:21:43.720 --> 01:21:46.359
But all right, so the knock, the knock on the I'll get to

978
01:21:46.439 --> 01:21:50.560
the positive stuff here in a moment, but the knock is that your your

979
01:21:50.880 --> 01:21:55.800
short, short residency in North Carolina. I know that some people that we

980
01:21:55.880 --> 01:21:59.840
have a lot of transplants. That's
generally a campaign issue. I saw that

981
01:22:00.000 --> 01:22:03.479
they were floating video from a traffic
stop with you, So it seems like

982
01:22:03.600 --> 01:22:08.000
all we've heard about is the background
there. And I'll let you respond to

983
01:22:08.039 --> 01:22:11.760
any of that. But I'm kind
of curious whether it's you or Sandy or

984
01:22:11.800 --> 01:22:16.479
whomever gets in there, what they're
going to do because historically the first district

985
01:22:16.520 --> 01:22:21.239
has been a ready blue check and
we have a much more competitive race.

986
01:22:21.359 --> 01:22:26.560
So why with all of those things
that people may have questions about, do

987
01:22:26.640 --> 01:22:30.760
you still feel that you're the superior
candidate? Well, I feel I supirit

988
01:22:30.760 --> 01:22:34.560
to candidate because all the things that
are going on about me are untruth or

989
01:22:34.640 --> 01:22:39.279
have truths just straight out lies from
a desperate opponent. Now, I want

990
01:22:39.319 --> 01:22:43.159
to tell you this is our fifth
run from public office. She's currently over

991
01:22:43.279 --> 01:22:49.359
four A new ad just came out
from a pack called Rolling Seas, and

992
01:22:49.479 --> 01:22:53.159
we found out about it because the
radio station called us and said, hey,

993
01:22:53.199 --> 01:22:56.680
we're fixing to run this this ad. Here's a twenty nine thousand dollars

994
01:22:56.760 --> 01:23:00.760
buy. I just heard it on
another radio station. It's paid for by

995
01:23:00.840 --> 01:23:04.399
Democrats and it's for Sandy and against
me, So have a listen for it.

996
01:23:04.560 --> 01:23:09.079
At the end, it says paid
for by Rolling Seas pack and they

997
01:23:09.239 --> 01:23:13.720
are supporting Democrats and Don Davis,
and they want him to take on Sandy

998
01:23:13.760 --> 01:23:15.920
in the fall because she's lost to
him. Once lost a butterfield. Before

999
01:23:16.000 --> 01:23:20.159
that, she took on Tilla's,
she took on Greg Greg Murphy, and

1000
01:23:20.399 --> 01:23:25.520
she just seems to be desperate to
somehow get into office. And I think

1001
01:23:25.560 --> 01:23:28.199
she's going to be like the dog
that caught the car if she ever does.

1002
01:23:28.760 --> 01:23:31.680
She has no record of success in
her entire life. I served in

1003
01:23:31.760 --> 01:23:34.960
might you know. I served my
country. I raised a healthy, happy

1004
01:23:35.079 --> 01:23:39.880
family, been married to my husband
for twenty nine years, who's a West

1005
01:23:39.880 --> 01:23:44.760
Point graduate and a great guy.
And I started a business that she's actually

1006
01:23:44.880 --> 01:23:49.000
called a more profit here, and
it was a business to stop soldiers from

1007
01:23:49.039 --> 01:23:56.319
getting blown up by IED's we save
countless lives. I will never apologize for

1008
01:23:56.399 --> 01:24:01.399
that, and I'll never apologize for
running success business that gave over one hundred

1009
01:24:01.479 --> 01:24:05.800
folks great jobs. And you know, a business person, you pay yourself

1010
01:24:05.880 --> 01:24:10.960
last, and I did. And
my friends know how we struggled those first

1011
01:24:11.079 --> 01:24:15.399
years of me paying myself last and
making sure all my folks had a paycheck,

1012
01:24:15.520 --> 01:24:19.279
a good paycheck and benefits. So
you know, I mean, yeah,

1013
01:24:19.279 --> 01:24:23.680
I'll ask your opponent. I'll ask
I'll ask your opponent this as well.

1014
01:24:23.800 --> 01:24:27.840
But just with the the nature of
the ads that are going back and

1015
01:24:27.960 --> 01:24:32.600
forth, if the if the voters
tomorrow say the person we want running is

1016
01:24:32.920 --> 01:24:38.760
Sandy or they write somebody in,
I guess, are you still going to

1017
01:24:38.800 --> 01:24:43.119
get out there? And because this
is an important congressional seat for Republicans right

1018
01:24:43.279 --> 01:24:46.279
everything's razor thin right now, and
the ability to potentially flip this is a

1019
01:24:46.319 --> 01:24:50.079
big deal. So how do we
make sure that the primary doesn't kill the

1020
01:24:50.159 --> 01:24:56.720
ability in the general for Republicans to
get that seat? Well, you know

1021
01:24:56.840 --> 01:25:00.920
what, I think Republicans have to
come together and support the w uh Frankly,

1022
01:25:02.439 --> 01:25:06.720
I think my opponent has integrity challenges. It will be very hard for

1023
01:25:06.800 --> 01:25:13.039
me to do that, but we
have to flip the seat. It's going

1024
01:25:13.119 --> 01:25:15.279
to be very difficult for me,
frankly, because I uh, you know

1025
01:25:15.359 --> 01:25:19.000
what. An officer doesn't lie,
toe ter, steal or tolerate those who

1026
01:25:19.079 --> 01:25:24.760
do, and it can be hard. Well, and and again I'll because

1027
01:25:24.760 --> 01:25:28.000
I'm sure we've talked to Sandy during
our last run, you'll probably call in

1028
01:25:28.119 --> 01:25:31.600
and I'll ask her the same same
question. There. What's your website,

1029
01:25:31.680 --> 01:25:35.760
Laurie, It's Lori buck Out l
A U R I E b U c

dot com. Okay, all right,

1031
01:25:41.800 --> 01:25:44.159
so the h in there. I
just want to remind folks they're googling it.

1032
01:25:44.239 --> 01:25:46.640
Yeahuse God only knows what some of
the weird stuff we've seen in congressional

1033
01:25:46.760 --> 01:25:50.279
races and fake websites. Now,
so all right, I'll also take a

1034
01:25:50.319 --> 01:25:55.439
look at the Rolling Seas pack,
which is supporting Sandy. Okay, all

1035
01:25:55.520 --> 01:25:58.279
right, Well, we got it
out there and I'll be listening for it

1036
01:25:58.359 --> 01:26:01.000
and others should as well. Lorippreciate
the time this morning, Okay, thank

1037

you, thank you, and take
care, yeah you too. All right,

1038
01:26:04.199 --> 01:26:10.439
there you go, Lori buck Out
here on the Kcoday radio program or

1039
01:26:10.479 --> 01:26:13.640
my whole button apparently doesn't work anymore. All right, we'll we got more

1040
01:26:13.680 --> 01:26:16.560
interviews coming up, but got Ken
Boone from the Weather Channel. He's hanging

1041
01:26:16.600 --> 01:26:21.840
out and let's talk to him first. And ah, yes, I'd like

1042
01:26:21.880 --> 01:26:26.159
an order of summer. You could
handle that, sir, I'd be great.

1043
01:26:26.840 --> 01:26:30.399
Well, we've got some pretty warm
temperatures again. Temperatures are going to

1044
01:26:30.439 --> 01:26:33.359
be a good bit above average here
as we head through the early part of

1045
01:26:33.399 --> 01:26:36.640
the business week. Slightly cooler as
we get into midweek as we'll see some

1046
01:26:36.760 --> 01:26:41.640
showers and even storms, but still
temperatures are going to remain above average.

1047
01:26:41.680 --> 01:26:44.119
That's a trend that'll carry us through
the end of the week. So out

1048
01:26:44.159 --> 01:26:45.680
here today, we'll see a little
sunshine mixed in with the clouds from time

1049
01:26:45.720 --> 01:26:48.600
to time, and then late this
afternoon into this evening there is a slight

1050
01:26:48.720 --> 01:26:51.880
chance that we could see a few
showers move through. Temperatures today upper sixties

1051
01:26:51.920 --> 01:26:57.319
to near seventy fifty tonight, more
sunshine mixing in with the clouds tomorrow all

1052
01:26:57.359 --> 01:27:00.079
the way up into the low seventies, and even better chance for showers rumbles

1053
01:27:00.119 --> 01:27:04.640
of thunder overnight Tuesday night and through
Wednesday. Wednesday afternoon load to mid sixties

1054
01:27:04.680 --> 01:27:09.159
and then back to sunshine Thursday with
highs again in the upper sixties to near

1055
01:27:09.239 --> 01:27:12.359
seventy degrees. All right, Ken
Moon Weather Channel, Thank you, sir.

1056
01:27:12.520 --> 01:27:15.600
We'll you tomorrow. Hey, I'll
be back tomorrow. Right, very

1057
01:27:15.640 --> 01:27:17.960
good. We'll talk then and we'll
come back. We've got Jeff Bellinger and

1058
01:27:18.000 --> 01:27:23.079
we'll grab one more quick candidate to
get to know you in just a few

1059
01:27:23.159 --> 01:27:26.279
Hang on, Jeff Ellinger from Bloomberg
News. Jeff, what's going on?

1060
01:27:26.840 --> 01:27:30.880
Well, Dwarring Casey, you always
happy to make your mondays complete. Stocks

1061
01:27:30.920 --> 01:27:33.920
that started the month with a positive
session on Friday. Gains for the major

1062
01:27:34.000 --> 01:27:39.640
averages range from a quarter percent more
than one percent. Futures a little bit

1063
01:27:39.720 --> 01:27:43.600
lower this morning. S and P
futures down ten as back futures are down

1064
01:27:43.680 --> 01:27:46.159
two the now futures are down one
hundred and sixty eight points at the moment.

1065
01:27:46.640 --> 01:27:50.239
No big surprise that we're seeing some
caution on Wall Street. We'll be

1066
01:27:50.279 --> 01:27:56.239
hearing from Fed cher Jerome Powell today
and also a lot of economic indicators will

1067
01:27:56.239 --> 01:28:00.279
be coming up in the lead up
to the Labor Department's employment report. We

1068
01:28:00.399 --> 01:28:03.720
get that on Friday, some quarterly
results from big retailers will get attention.

1069
01:28:03.840 --> 01:28:09.520
This week. Target kicks things off
with its report tomorrow. Jet Blue just

1070
01:28:09.800 --> 01:28:14.880
announced this morning the merger deal with
Spirit Airlines has been terminated. Jet Blue

1071
01:28:14.920 --> 01:28:17.960
says the companies mutually agreed to end
the pact. Until now, they had

1072
01:28:18.000 --> 01:28:23.840
been appealing a decision by a Boston
federal judge who blocked the merger. Private

1073
01:28:23.880 --> 01:28:28.680
equity firms trying to buy Macy's not
taking no for an answer, they've increased

1074
01:28:28.680 --> 01:28:32.560
their offer. Macy's rejected the original
twenty one dollar a share bid from ourk

1075
01:28:32.640 --> 01:28:38.600
House Management and Brigade Capital, saying
it lacked compelling value. So over the

1076
01:28:38.640 --> 01:28:42.840
weekend, the two suitors sweetened their
bid to twenty four dollars to share,

1077
01:28:42.960 --> 01:28:46.800
hoping Macy's will find that more compelling. Half of all Americans who have applied

1078
01:28:46.840 --> 01:28:51.119
for a loan in the two years
since the Federal Reserve started hiking interest rates

1079
01:28:51.159 --> 01:28:57.159
have had their applications rejected. A
survey by bank Rate found that younger people

1080
01:28:57.279 --> 01:29:00.560
and parents with minor children were the
most likely to be denied. Whole food

1081
01:29:00.680 --> 01:29:05.479
setting its sites on the Nation Cities. The Amazon owned grocery chain announced this

1082
01:29:05.680 --> 01:29:11.920
morning it plans to open you small
format stores in urban areas. Whole Food's

1083
01:29:12.079 --> 01:29:15.119
Market Daily Shop outlets will be a
fraction of the size of the chain's current

1084
01:29:15.199 --> 01:29:19.479
stores. They will not have buffet
bars or meat counters. They'll be designed

1085
01:29:19.560 --> 01:29:25.800
to serve urban customers who want to
get in and out quickly. And Casey,

1086
01:29:25.960 --> 01:29:30.960
a crafts retailer, is struggling.
Sources say Joanne is considering filing for

1087
01:29:30.079 --> 01:29:35.239
bankruptcy and turning control of the company
over to lenders. Joeanne sells fabric and

1088
01:29:35.359 --> 01:29:40.159
craft supplies. It has about eight
hundred and fifty stores across the country.

1089
01:29:40.359 --> 01:29:43.760
Casey, Yeah, I know why
they're hurting too. They were mean to

1090
01:29:43.880 --> 01:29:47.319
Ross. If you go in to
buy fabric and you're a dude, all

1091
01:29:47.359 --> 01:29:53.199
the women customers are judging you say
so, well, yeah, so don't

1092
01:29:53.239 --> 01:29:55.239
do that. I guess all right, Thanks, Jeff, appreciate it,

1093
01:29:55.319 --> 01:29:58.399
Okay, have a good day.
Yeah. Was that Joe Ann's or Michaels

1094
01:29:58.479 --> 01:30:02.159
Ross? I can't remember. Joe
it was Joe Ann's. Your wife sent

1095
01:30:02.239 --> 01:30:05.279
you to get there, like you're
getting to give you the stink guy?

1096
01:30:05.399 --> 01:30:10.000
Yeah, why is there a man
in here? What's going on? All

1097
01:30:10.079 --> 01:30:13.720
right? We had a couple of
different candidates call in. I'm gonna go.

1098
01:30:13.960 --> 01:30:16.640
We're gonna chat real quick with one. Just reminder for the state wide

1099
01:30:16.720 --> 01:30:21.039
and national candidates, even though tomorrow
I open it up for everybody else.

1100
01:30:21.439 --> 01:30:26.680
Well, you guys can still call
in. So that's you know, so

1101
01:30:27.000 --> 01:30:29.720
market down, get ready, but
don't call and try to schedule something.

1102
01:30:29.720 --> 01:30:32.239
You'll have to call in. All
right. We chatted with well, one

1103
01:30:32.279 --> 01:30:38.439
of the candidates for NC State Auditor
Republican nomination here is Charles Dingy. He's

1104
01:30:38.479 --> 01:30:43.439
another Charles. How you doing this
morning? Good? Are you good?

1105
01:30:43.560 --> 01:30:46.439
I got to open it with the
smart ask question first, Uh, pro

1106
01:30:46.720 --> 01:30:53.680
or against using state vehicles to monster
truck other vehicles? I didn't think i'd

1107
01:30:53.680 --> 01:30:57.319
have to ask this. Okay,
all right, that's you're against? All

1108
01:30:57.399 --> 01:31:00.479
right? So what do you think
that maybe we should have a maybe we

1109
01:31:00.520 --> 01:31:03.720
should have a driving test requirement for
anybody looking to run to be a statewide

1110
01:31:03.720 --> 01:31:06.560
official. I don't know, man, Look, if you're at a demolition

1111
01:31:06.720 --> 01:31:10.479
derby, I wouldn't I wouldn't make
That's fine, go ahead and do that,

1112
01:31:10.640 --> 01:31:15.720
but downtown Raleigh not so much.
And the other candidate we talked to

1113
01:31:15.880 --> 01:31:20.239
from was from the triad. I
can't remember. I'm sorry, but let's

1114
01:31:20.319 --> 01:31:25.079
let's talk about you in your background, your triangle, your business owner.

1115
01:31:25.520 --> 01:31:30.119
What makes you qualified to be auditor? Well, I mean, first off

1116
01:31:30.520 --> 01:31:31.920
planet simple, I'm going to be
a thorn in the side to every level

1117
01:31:31.960 --> 01:31:35.880
of government. That's my goal of
what I plan to do with the office.

1118
01:31:36.520 --> 01:31:41.359
In terms of what makes me qualified
is I've got management experience, I've

1119
01:31:41.399 --> 01:31:45.079
got a background in banking, and
I'm a small business owner. You can

1120
01:31:45.119 --> 01:31:47.920
bind those three. That makes me
uniquely qualified to be the best person to

1121
01:31:48.000 --> 01:31:51.680
actually lead and direct this office.
And that's what it's about. Being the

1122
01:31:51.760 --> 01:31:57.359
state auditor does So how does the
office roots teeth? The question I asked

1123
01:31:57.479 --> 01:31:59.880
one of your opponents. But I
think a lot of people are wondering,

1124
01:32:00.119 --> 01:32:05.279
is I've done one hundred stories on
the money having anything attached to COVID and

1125
01:32:05.399 --> 01:32:12.119
where it went and how you literally
have trillions unaccounted for and rampant theft.

1126
01:32:12.520 --> 01:32:15.640
But somebody drilling down at the state
level, what does that look like and

1127
01:32:15.720 --> 01:32:20.119
how high is that a priority for
you? It's definitely high on the list.

1128
01:32:20.199 --> 01:32:25.439
I mean people across the state.
As I've traveled over ninety counties have

1129
01:32:25.640 --> 01:32:28.479
come to me and said, we
don't know what happened with all this COVID

1130
01:32:28.560 --> 01:32:31.039
money that came in, and nobody's
looking. I mean, even the federal

1131
01:32:31.079 --> 01:32:34.720
government has admitted that they don't really
know where the money went. So for

1132
01:32:34.880 --> 01:32:39.359
me, those are federal funds that
would be under the purview of the Auditor's

1133
01:32:39.399 --> 01:32:42.479
office. If they came in in
the form of grants, or if they

1134
01:32:42.560 --> 01:32:45.199
came in through the General Assembly for
funding, it would be under the purview

1135
01:32:45.199 --> 01:32:50.479
of the state auditor. If any
government entities received COVID funds, that's under

1136
01:32:50.560 --> 01:32:54.239
our purview. And those are the
things that we're going to be looking at

1137
01:32:54.479 --> 01:32:59.640
to put out there in a way
that's simple for anybody to understand exactly what

1138
01:32:59.800 --> 01:33:03.119
the government did with your mind and
hold them accountable to it well. And

1139
01:33:03.239 --> 01:33:08.520
that is that's where people wonder if
the teeth are there, because we've seen

1140
01:33:09.159 --> 01:33:12.199
you. You've been a part of
the Republican Party. You've been very active

1141
01:33:12.239 --> 01:33:17.800
to kind of behind the scenes for
people don't know like it. Republicans talk

1142
01:33:17.880 --> 01:33:20.840
a good game, but it seems
like when it gets drilled drilled down to

1143
01:33:20.960 --> 01:33:27.680
investigations and people being held accountable.
I I wonder if Republicans have the stones

1144
01:33:27.760 --> 01:33:32.399
for it. I mean, okay, all right, well go ahead,

1145
01:33:32.520 --> 01:33:34.560
No, I would agree with you
one hundred percent, because half the time

1146
01:33:34.600 --> 01:33:38.680
they go up there, we elect
these people, they say one thing and

1147
01:33:38.720 --> 01:33:42.079
they do it completely opposite, and
it's ridiculous. I mean, we have

1148
01:33:42.199 --> 01:33:47.039
gotten complacent with allowing government to waste
our time and money and nobody holds them

1149
01:33:47.039 --> 01:33:49.920
accountable. That's not what I'm gonna
do, though. I'm going to be

1150
01:33:50.000 --> 01:33:54.319
out there to be a thorn in
the side every single day, and if

1151
01:33:54.359 --> 01:33:58.520
I can't remove get somebody removed from
office, I'm going to make sure everybody

1152
01:33:58.560 --> 01:34:00.800
in the news knows what's going on. I'm going to be at those local

1153
01:34:00.960 --> 01:34:06.399
meetings for whatever agency or entity it
is, so people know these people wasted

1154
01:34:06.520 --> 01:34:10.880
your money and here's how you can
get rid of them. I'll be at

1155
01:34:10.920 --> 01:34:14.239
the General Assembly lobbying day in and
day out. If we find out that

1156
01:34:14.319 --> 01:34:17.760
people wasted your money and there's nothing
I can do about it, I'm going

1157
01:34:17.840 --> 01:34:21.560
to be out there using this position
as a bully pulpit to get rid of

1158
01:34:21.640 --> 01:34:26.239
these people. Because it's time that
people are actually held accountable.
