So let me get into this what's going on over in the Middle East with
the Houthi rebels. You know, we've obviously taken a wait and see approach,
mostly because they're really bad at what they do. What is this sixty
two different ships covering sixty two different ships covering eighty seven ownership groups. I
guess maybe because like the one ship they shot at that was the US.
Ship was one third US owned, one third is Raeli owned, and one
third like some with the UK. So you know, you have some ships
that literally transcend three different nations. However, this one's kind of a big
deal. So Houthi rebels had hit a tanker that is primarily Chinese owned.
It's primarily Chinese, the other part is mostly Russian. Why is that a
big deal? Well, for the most part, Iran is actually friends with
China and Russia, but also Iran is a staging ground for escalation of things
in different regions. So specifically, while Iran maybe friend to China, North
Korea, and Russia, a kickoff point in a part of the world where
the US is we'll just say heavily stressed, is something that Iran has provided,
specifically with Syria, previously. So if you remember with Syria, you
had the Obama administration towards the very end dealing with the gassing of citizens.
And at first it was Trump is a bad guy because he doesn't involve himself,
and then Russia basically did Russia's stuff, so it kind of fell by
the wayside, but was a pretty good example of how the Trump administration wasn't
going to get involved with stuff. So now you have this incident that a
lot of people are seeing as how do we say two perfect basically providing an
end to a conflict that the US is already involved in. All right,
so according to reporting, this is from Bloomberg and I ran back, hoothy
offense has conflicted with the safe passage, which is a really weird way to
write this for a commercial vessel that is partly owned by China partly owned by
Russia. Here we go. US Central Command announced on social media the bablistic
missile fired from a Huthi Rebels Panamanium flag Chinese owned chemical tanker. Right,
so you got nine different people in this thing actually struck what is, for
all practical purposes, a Chinese flagship. So that happened three days ago we're
just now finding out the Huthi's launched a four anti ship ballistic missile attack in
the Red Sea on the Hung Pao, which is again Panamanium flag, but
primarily Chinese Russia owned oil tanker. What this sets the uh I guess the
stage four is China, as they're saying, now to exert a little more
control in the region, which is kind of nightmare scenario for the US.
Forget the Panamanian flag part, none of that matters. Half of the ships
that are under US control are Panamanian flagged, But specifically, China now has
an excuse to run parts of their navy in there, which is what they
say they're going to do pending a determination that the UAVs blah blah blah.
Basically they're going to determine whether it was bad for them, then they're going
to run their navy in there. And up until this point, the US,
basically with their Middle Eastern partners, has kind of controlled what happens in
the Red Sea area. This has always been seen as a point of initial
conflict. Should the US and China actually get into a scrape. They don't
want it to be over in the China Sea they don't want it to be
near the Koreas, near Japan. This is kind of that escalating scenario.
Now, whether it actually escalates, I don't know. But China has now
indicated that they're going to run uh what is it, six warships basically into
the waters off Yemen. So that's where we find ourselves this morning. While
it has been determined the UA this is from the Bloomberg article, Well,
it's been determined that the UAVs present an imminent threat to the US, the
coalition, and the merchant ships. The escalation by China to attempt to control
the waters is seen as and I'm quoting worst case scenario. So if he
needed something to wake up this morning and make it a little nervous, that's
it right there. So the six ships are initial Sorry just reading the update
to this story. All right, So the six ships will be moving into
the area to attempt to extract the wang Pa, which I guess I'm pronouncing
that correctly. Yeah, here we go, as well as China determining what
further military stable stabilization is going to be necessary for their ships. Referred to
under the UN Treaty as a geo political disruption member states are allowed to determine
their own offensive needs. So basically that means China, even though they say
they're going to send six ships, can basically put whatever they want in there.
I was looking for a UN statement or a US statement, all right,
neither of Here we go. Saudi Arabia, on behalf of the coalition
which we're part of, it says they welcome the stabilization plan both on behalf
of China and Russia as well as their Iranian partners. So yeah, this
week's going to be a little crazy there, given the chaos in Eastern Europe
with Ukraine in Russia. Let's see, the houthis stand currently well armored and
ready to continue to attack ships they say invade their waters. You know.
The irony of course, being that they're in southern Saudi Arabia. They're not
recognized by Saudi Arabia. They're a member of our coalition, And basically the
lead statement on this is, yeah, whatever China wants to do. It's
the large here we go, largest build up of Chinese warship since twenty nineteen,
going back to the that's the kurd stuff. So yeah, that's a
whole other issue right there. With the Trump administration. All right, the
six ships actually are already in waters in the US says they are attempting to
bring them into the coalition. Dude, we're such cowards. We're trying to
bring people into the coalition that literally are with the Iranians who were responsible for
a very good portion of what happened in Israel. Oh dude, all right.
So the name of the Chinese coalition is literally known as the Bad Dragon
Confete. I don't even know what that means, but basically it's like a
destroyer group or a one of our one of our naval groups. Yes,
the Chinese Bad Dragon Group, also known as Don the t Rex or Virgil
the Drippy Dragon. Why do they have all these stupid names. It is
expected to occupy the area off Yemen for the next six months. Well that's
wonderful, all right, six forty five kco Day radio program. So what's
coming up on the spring break front? Well, we have an update for
you also yesterday, a twist, a tweak by the US Court of Appeals
in the Donald Trump I guess bond posting and MSNBC is beside themselves. We'll
give you the d DE tells coming up CaCO Day Radio program, CaCO Day
Radio program. Now some of you are reading into stuff, right. You're
taking a perfectly innocent situation, evaluating it, and you know, creating this
whole narrative. And it's easy to do that just because what is his actual
name? Is it Shawn Combs? I believe it's Shawn Combs. Ye,
that is your actual legitimate name. Just because somebody, either legally or you
know, within the court of public opinion, attempted to change their name twenty
two times. Some people are deciding that the raid yesterday of it's multiple homes.
I mean it's like properties or something. I think at first it was
reported is too la in Miami, but I believe there's another one in New
York City. Now I think it actually I think the actual the actual warrant
covers eight addresses, so you know some of it could be adjacent. When
that happens and you immediately go to flee the country, what does that mean
when you flee the country and when your children are in handcuffs on TV?
What does that mean? Is that bad? All right? So let me
let me run a scenario by you on the fifteenth, which was not last
Friday, but the friday before, I was hell bent on my vacation,
which you know, I flew out Saturday. So if you know, if
there had been a raid on the sixteenth or on the fifteenth, and I
didn't have to be there for it, would I have still gone to Argentina?
And the answer is yes, So you know it would. It would
create this scenario. Now you ross are filling in the blanks, like just
because his kids are in handcuffs, just because there's this weird video of him
like pacing around while they're executing the Warren in Miami that Sean p Diddy,
Puffy, I don't even remember all the names. Umm, might have something
to hide, but that's a thing that happened yesterday. So you're thinking that
he just had the vacation booked and he's like, this is bad timing,
but I already bought the tickets. Dude, do you know what airline tickets
are right now? They're so expensive. Oh dude, they're crazy. I
had I literally almost didn't go on my trip, but you know, uh,
for whatever reason, they came down here at the last week. There
are rumors that he's actually the biggest smuggler of Cambodian breast milk on two coasts?
Really is that a a thing? Posted that yesterday on X and there's
like somebody who obviously had never seen the Ye Did Chappelle show skit with Diddy
and they're like, well, I don't know what the hell, dude.
It's also weird. So so the properties of Sean P. Diddy Combs.
All right, So they claim it's over smuggling, a human smuggling. But
essentially when you see charges, like especially when it comes to entertainers, what
you're talking about is somebody who legally wasn't of age, who may have gotten
into car and literally cross state lines. That's what you're talking about. You
saw it with R. Kelly too, although his trial was more about him
videotaping some we'll just say some pretty non typical acts. That's really where they
went after him. But with Sean P. Diddy Combs, when you get
into the smuggling, it's basically somebody who's under age got on a jet,
something happened on the jet, and then the fact that they were across state
lines, that's what you're talking about. But to Ross's point, then when
you go out of town and I don't just mean like you went to Akron
for something but specifically left the country. People got they got questions. But
yeah, all told eight different properties. When I thought I had it in
the stack, Oh no, I say, here we go. I sent
it to myself after Yeah, eight different properties in three different locations. So
I guess, amaze, he owns adjacent properties. I have not seen what
his excuse for leaving is. Though I was looking on the post there was
a quote he said, I can't stop, won't stop. That's not something
he said that. Go back, go back and listen. It's on the
tapes. Okay, all right? Do you think maybe has something to do
with the the Francis Scott key Bridge. Do you think that's a metaphor for
anything? Can't be right. I mean, you don't know what he can't
stop, what he won't stop? Maybe it's uh paleo diet like I don't,
dude, I don't know, I don't know. I don't see a
quote. I'm not gonna throw blame here, but you know, generally when
they're they're coming after all eight of your properties looking for stuff, even like
stuff you don't have things built on. I don't know what they're looking to
fun. Do you think there's a possibility he might have confidential documents? How
does he? Have you ever done any politicals? I just read Historian X
that he last time he endorsed Biden, but he was also considering starting his
own political party. Yeah, but that's a rapper thing. Nobody takes that
seriously. All right, So I'm looking at it here. But so they
refer to him as non political, that's a bunch of bs, because,
as you pointed out, he came out and literally endorsed somebody. Florida Man.
Florida Man is something in the wandery err or sand that makes you do
all that crazy crap. That's like the state is one be dumb ass trapped.
Nowhere else has the Florida Man. It is almost like as the Weird
Factor climbs and you find out it haven't in Florida every time. Florida Man,
Florida Man. If anyone can cheer me, if you know you can
to find life be crazy. But of course, but it's not as bad
crap crazy as yours. Nowhere else are you gonna find him? They're so
used to it, they don't find him. Hooray for Florida. Man,
Oh boy, let's go ahead and start here with the machete, shall we?
All right? Tampa, don't worry, we're spreading the state. We
got one Tampa, one Miami. A person was arrested after an alleged machete
attack at a wah wah in Tampa. I wonder which one it was.
Where is this? Oh it's on Maybury, all right, so it's on
the way to the station there. I've been to this wah wah all right.
According to police officers, when did this happen? Six point fifteen last
night? Officers responded to a wah wah store following a disturbance between two men.
According to video by Fox thirteen, a man is brandishing a machete outside
a convenience store. Now, look, this is why we got the sword.
This is why we went through all of that to acquire the Golden Samurai,
which you know is now the official sword of the show. One of
our wonderful listeners sent it just to deal with this scrap. But Fox thirteen
showed a viewer Brandy Sheen, a machete outside a convenience store, arguing with
another man as you do, and telling him to call the cops. In
the video, a woman can be seen pleading with one of the dudes.
It's a little unclear. She does have a stroller, so she is beseeching
whichever one of these morons is hers, I guess for the sake of their
baby. However, you eventually see the two going at it. Stroller kind
of in the periphery, so you know, not safe for the baby.
And there's also a photo that got post of a gash on one of the
dude's arms. Please say, one person taken into custody. It is unclear
what started the machete argument, so gonna have to kind of fill in the
blakes. But could be an iguana, we don't know. Florida man number
two, please say. A yoga class taking place in one of the parks
in Miami. What is this? Legion Park turned into a medical problem after
a man was left bruised and bleeding following an iguana falling on his face.
All right, so look, you know one of the things that is an
issue in southern Florida. I guess not just Southern Florida, but basically anywhere
you have a Guaneye is the temperatures right if they get too cold. The
iguana cold blooded, kind of at the mercy of the weather. They fall
out of trees. They literally issue warnings for this. This is a problem,
especially in Miami. According to Miami New Times, a yoga class which
was roughly forty seven minutes in which is really specific, was cut short after
one of the participants had an iguana fall in his face. The iguana,
which I guess was perched in an oak tree above the park, was subdued
based on the temperatures. In fact, he created such a ruckus that literally,
as this dude is recovering from an iguana falling and is somehow getting mad
at some other dude like he had anything to do with it. They reported
that a second iguana fell on the dude while he's yelling at another dude.
That caused a fight, and blame was tossed. I guess the best way
to say this, all right, here we go. What's this guy's name?
Sanchez? Why do they have this full name? I hate that.
I hate it when they do that. This is Daily Caller wrote it,
and then they forgot to get this guy's first name. All right, So
it's a little unclear of the process of events, but basically iguana fell,
dude blamed another dude, like you know, somehow he had anything to do
with it. And then during the course of that quote unquote ruckus, a
second lizard fell, that one falling straight onto Okay, so the dude who
had it fall was watching the yoga. The guy he was fighting with that
the second lizard fell on was taking part in the yoga. That's the way
I read it. The second individual, identifying the police report merely as Michael
let's see, initially was arguing with the first guy. However, when the
second lizard fell, became embarrassed over the nature of the incident, saying this
is a quote saying he didn't want to be known as quote the guy whose
face was used as an iguana landing pad. All right, dude, why
I don't understand what the problem is. Ross. If let's say today,
you're out in your yard, I don't know, checking the henge or whatever
you do, and an iguana falls from a tree and lands on your face.
Are you embarrassed by that? Or are you like this is an amazing
show feature. No, it's a show feature. How many people in the
triangle are going to be able to be like Yeah, so what happened yesterday?
Iguana fell on my face? Yeah, this dude's way uptight, So
anyway, he's our I guess it's probably because he gave his you know,
he was yelling at the other dude. The iguana, which was estimated to
weigh between twenty and thirty pounds, fell for roughly twenty five feet in the
air. I bet that hurts like a well, I can't say, Sanchez
who he is, identifying The police report as noted the iguanas are common in
the area, saying quote, they are the king of that frickin' park.
According to report, the attack left both with swollen eyes and a bleedy nose
and lip. Nearby paramedics kentucted a quick cleanup. However, further medical services
were declined, with the second individual, who didn't want to be known as
the iguana dude, according to report, quote calling his wife to come pick
him up. I don't understand this. Yeah, like, if at some
point today an iguana literally falls on my head, that's on the show tomorrow.
I'm excited about it. But both these guys are super embarrassed. And
then this quote, all right, here we go out of the one hundred
and fifty people in the yoga class seems like way too many. The man
identified as Michael said, I just want to know why me, Why have
I been put in this position? Why is an iguana falling on my face,
to which another individual responded that an iguana falling on your face is good
luck, and then the man is quoted as saying, quote, I don't
believe in guns, and I don't believe in good luck, but I do
believe they should be shot on site. And quote, mounted, dude,
how do you not put this guy's last name in any Wait? So an
iguana fawn on your face is good luck? Sorry, I just had to
reread the quote. I guess maybe because we don't live in Florida, we
don't know, all right, So there you go, according to this Florida
resident who's not happy about it, if an iguana falls on your head at
any point today, that's some sort of good luck, is mister Sanchez dirty?
I don't know. I don't, but thank you for your email,
sir. But again, I didn't know this about iguanas now we know now
if it happens to you, apparently that's the universe, indicating that today's your
now. For it to be luck, does they have to like just fall
in your head or can someone drop it on your face, like say when
you're sleeping or whatever, like, oh my god, good luck? Is
there a difference, doesn't indicating That's why I'm literally that's why I'm pausing,
because this guy is indicating that this is some sort of like known thing and
I've never heard it. But then he also wants to make a mount out
of it. He's got to stop freaking out. Remember back in the day,
there's a classic video of Razor Ramone in the center of the ring.
Actually maybe at the time he Scott Hall, but he gets hit with a
beer straight up in the face, like a fastball Ted Cruz, like Ted
Cruz at that parade. Yeah, like a fastball beer to the side of
the face. And he doesn't flinch. He doesn't. It's like it never
happened. He just continues on with his promo and styles his hair with the
beer that's now in his hair, and he greases it back and he does
a little march towards the camera. If that happens to you with an iguan,
you just gotta roll with it. You got to make it your own
Now some would some would suggest that's because he knew what was coming, right,
Absolutely not if you see the video, absolutely obviously. Like I watched
a video that one of our listeners posted yesterday where a wrestler who was getting
a reverse piggyback used mind control on his opponents, Like, did you see
that across that? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's different if
you see the video and question I'm talking about, You're like, there's this
pandemodium and everything is getting thrown in the ring by the crowd. But I
just how did an iguana fallen on your head turn into a good like four
leaf clover situation. I know it's Florida, and you know neither of us
live in Florida, but I feel like I would have heard of this.
If an iguana falls on your face, it's got Well, now that's a
different thing. So you just mentioned what if it's in intentional? The way
I read this is it has to fall on your face. So did it
fall on Hole's face or did it? You know what I mean? I
mean it didn't fall It was thrown directly at his nogget right, right?
Yeah? Did it hit him in the face? Though? It sure did?
Oh, well you know what, like I said, but he didn't
flinch, and he just took his hands backwards and he just styles his hair
with the beer. Hold on, he's three power ball? What's the power
ball? It's like eight hundred million? Right? Do we have a winter
last night? I don't even know. I'm just going to go down to
like the dude, this is the stories that through iguanas that people's faces.
This is all right, here we go, no winter, all right,
dude, like we need an iguana gotta go to your face. It doesn't
say whether it has to be thrown. This is literally on urban legends.
I had no idea. All right, one of you weird lizard people.
What you gotta do, apparently is at some point, somebody's got to throw
your pet at you. It's got to hit you in the face, and
then you might you might win the uh what is the power ball at now?
They didn't win. It was eight hundred million, probably what eight sixty
or something? Yeah, you want that money, lizard to the face straight
up? Oh good lord? Making millions is a one point. Why I
dude, I'd never pay attention to this stuff. I never you know what
I did pay attention to Apparently that dude in California who bought the most expensive
house, Apparently his neighbors are really concerned, and not because he's throwing parties.
I was reading this article yesterday. Apparently they're of the opinion that he's
gone insane with his fortune and the people around him are going to murder him.
I don't know if you saw this story. I gotta call this up.
Yeah, they're like convinced this dude's gonna go sideway. But that's like
the story of the lottery, right, Remember the dude in West Virginia.
It was like, ah, I took by two hundred thousand in cash to
the strip club and the stripper stole it. How did this happen? Yeah,
apparently it's the California version of that. All right, I'm checking the
parameters here. We'll get you a solid iguana news. So I guess you
can get lucky and win either one point one billion or eight hundred and forty
two million. That's what they estimate. It's going to. Now here we
go cash payment on that three hundred and eighty four of it. Dude,
that's the part that just irritates because they can charge that tax because once you
hit the numbers and literally you get a check for three hundred and twenty five
million, you don't care, right, You're just like, this is amazing,
this is awesome. I'm getting screwed nine ways from Sunday only getting a
third of the jackpot. And the dude I'm talking about, Edwin Castro one
two point zero four billion, actually received about seven hundred and fifty million.
All right, anyway, I'll get you more on that coming up. Hang
on. Even you know, this stuff gets hyped on social media where they're
just like, oh, this is the sketch you have to see, this
is the thing you have to read, and then, you know, for
the most part, or it'll be like Ben Shapiro decimates somebody and it never
really lives up to the hype. I got to tell you. The Donald
Trump sketch, dude, that's good. That's a good Like kudos to whoever
drew this thing. So the courtroom sketch that was released following a decision yesterday
by the Court of Appeals basically to take the what was it, four hundred
and whatever million verdict, which Donald we talked about this yesterday, which Trump
was going to have to post prior to the appeals process was knocked down to
like one hundred and thirty and he posted it with cash, and the courtroom
sketch is purportedly the moment he learned not only would he have ten extra days,
but this whole farce would require him to post, you know, basically
a third of what the initial judgment was. And the look on his face,
I'm assuming it's him looking over at the prosecutorial table where James is and
they captured this fu face on this. It's good. And I don't know
if you saw any of the memes yesterday where they were basically like photoshopping it
onto you know, paintings in the louver and everything else. But that's a
humdinger, man, you know ross that be. That'd be a great shirt
for your Lamborghini for the kid, whatever your fake fundraiser is. I'm just
saying that could be a T shirt, man. And it kind of already
is I noticed on on the Twitter yesterday. So yeah, the required post
knockdown to about a third. The former president given ten days. He posted
yesterday in cash and now it's onto it. But the courtroom sketch is I
think it lives up to it just with the spug look on his face.
Well, let's see here this following a post from Letitia James which this was
subtweeted under from about a month ago a little I guess a month and a
week February seventeenth, when she posted the hey, how everyone's how is everyone
feeling today? And I've had my eye on Trump Tower, which I you
know, really set off most people and including MSNBC. So if this is
any preview of the potential for election Day, I'm here for it. So
MSNBC responding to this reduction of what the majority of Americans, I want to
be very clear here, what the majority of Americans feel is a political judgment.
Now, don't conflate that with the majority of Americans. Fiel. That's
about fitty fitty. But even people who are happy for it recognize within polling
that politics is to blame here. You just have a you have a percentage
about six percent that don't care, like they're more than happy for the weaponization
of the DOJ and other prosecutorial agencies, like they're down with it. So
I can safely say that the majority of Americans feel when polled that this is
political. But over on MSNBC. You gotta be outraged, and they brought
the outrage. Here we go legal analyst. Uh, sir douchebag. I'm
not looking up his name, uh Gunter. I believe it is his actual
last name. Uh. Here is their reaction to that decision yesterday. And
honestly, this is so infuriating. I don't even know what to do.
I don't even know if I care what the process is. All right,
Well, one, that's a big tell. You're a lawyer, you're here
to analyze. You should care about the process. But also, this guy's
so far gone. He's given MSNBC everything they want. But listen to his
reaction, mister, I don't care about the process. Let's get it arbitrarily.
It's kind of an admission that he knows what's going on. But again,
you're, as MSNBC's political analyst. You're brought on to have a very
specific interpretation, and he's not handling it very well. These judges are arriving
at whatever it is. It's lawn, I can tell you that much.
I mean, David put it well, it's this is a different process for
this person. We have decided that he gets his own private court of justice,
which is true. By the way, I just wanted to agree real
quick. He I don't know that he decided that, but I think it's
abundantly clear to people that this is a unique experience. So I appreciate you
admitting that, although you're approaching it from a slightly different direction. He has
a private plane, he has private clubs that he lives in, you know,
apparently, you know, he basically fashioned himself his own private militia to
try to take over the capitol. You know, now he's getting his own
private system of justice. This is an absolute travesty. It would not happen
for anybody else. Anybody else would be like, sorry, buddy, you
lost me up. Okay, he gets his own set of rules legally,
Tristan, how is that done? We just saw it. They just decided
that. They just you know, the appellate court has now just decided they're
going to swoop in and just change it. And that's it. And now
the AG's office can now try to go up above them. I believe you
know, I don't know what the details are because you just told us.
I'm guessing this is coming from the first apartment Bapellal Division, First apartment,
that's the intermediate court here, and then it's the three judge panel. And
I'm really surprised that the legal analyst doesn't know this, Like I knew this
yesterday when we mentioned it, right, we talked about it. We talked
about why businesses don't want to do business with the former president. And it's
not because they don't think they're going to make money. It's that they can't
predict what is going to happen with his enemies. Right, that's the that's
the hitch in the gidea, so to speak. So this guy not even
knowing that it was the appellate court judge panel, like that was everywhere.
So like, excuse me if I'm a little hesitant to take the legal analysis
of this dude. But he's right on every reason that this is unique and
different. Right, He's sitting there saying, look like this is this whole
process is outside of the way that this court system normally works, and that's
accurate. But instead of being appalled by it, he's now appalled by it
when he feels that it's like actually having a sense of normalcy to it,
where the appellate court was looking at it going this whole thing sounds cracked out,
man. So if we want to be able to sustain it, I
mean, don't think they're doing him a favor if they want to be able
to sustain it as it moves up the food chain. I think even the
appellate Court realized it's a little problematic how we got here. But anyway,
I'm sorry, mister Gunter or whatever your name is, continue your work.
That would be issuing a decision here. I don't know if there is a
remedy for the AG's Office to go up to the Court of Appeals, which
is our high court here in New York, and try to get them to
basically countermand this order. But in my view, this is without knowing more
unless there's some sort of other extenuating circumstance that we're going to learn here,
this appears to be an absolute gross miscarriage of justice, right all right,
So if look, if that's the reaction of MSNBC, now, I mean,
just stay tuned as we get further into the general perhaps there's a debate.
I wouldn't hold my breath on it. But also the adjudication of you
know, two or three of these probably Georgia and then you know the rest
of this. As we move through the election, they're going to be losing
their day mines and we're here for it. So you know, we'll keep
you updated. Seven forty six ray Stagic Weather Channel. All right, so
you're doing a good job. Everybody seems happy about the weather. Don't screw
it up, all right, go ahead, Well it looks like I am
unfortunately. Yeah, probably not today. Yeah, I did okay for one
day, right, two days. Today will be okay, But start to
see clouds come in now. At any sunshine we get today will be in
the morning forties, tryad thirties triangle. So the warmer air coming in from
the west, southwest, and the shower is starting to get into the western
parts of the state, into the mountains, but I think most of those
hold off. The triad from about Winston Soum, Greensboro and west may see
a shower later today, mid sixties. All no, not too bad.
We'll see that chance of rain and showers go up tonight through tomorrow morning.
Low sixties tomorrow and a little bit mildur in the morning as most of us
are near fifty degrees, and then we may get a little little bit of
a break tomorrow afternoon Tomorrow night, and then as the front goes east,
there's gonna be this little wave of low pressure developing, and it's gonna be
a round of rain Thursday, I think for the eastern half of the state.
So the further west you go, let's say, from the triad west,
less of a chance of rain. With a triangle in east, especially
out near the coast, there'll be some rain, maybe some heavy rain for
some and gusty winds. Really gonna be an ugly kind of day out along
the shoreline. So the best chance triangle east Thursday, and then sudden'll be
back for Friday. In the upcoming weekend. The weekend looks great. It's
a little tricky, especially on Thursday, to see where that rain sets up.
But casey, we'll be here. I we'll be able to tell you
where it is, where it's going, and who's gonna get it. But
to have a couple of days Wednesday, Wednesday night at the Thursday before the
great weather comes in for Friday in the weekend. All right, Well,
I'm just telling you this because like buddies who had beach houses are already like,
oh, we're gonna get a couple extra weekends. It's gonna be amazing.
Even though Memorial Days kind of the kickoff, so right, unfortunately they
put it on you. So yeah, and this work for them, well
we'll just want to borrow their beach house. So that's really okay. All
right, thanks, I appreciate it, man, All right, there you
go. Yeah, yeah, I got the I got a crazy message from
one of my Buddies's like, no, we're down at the beach. It's
gonna be crazy and like the way the but you know what, we're getting
three extra weekends this year. So I don't know if like school moved in
the triad or what. But good for you, sir. So there's your
question asked. We'll talk to Ray again in the next hour. Coming up.
What else is the state of New York from a prosecutorial standpoint busy with
It's a doozy. We'll get to it coming up cac O Day Radio program.
All right, let me grab a couple of phone calls. Alan,
you're up first, go right ahead, what's up? Hey? I was
just thinking I hadn't really heard anybody talk about this, but the judge if
this all goes through has devalued mar a Lago, So by default, would
that not make the property values around mar Lago depreciate? And then that asset
wouldn't If you're a homeowner, wouldn't you sue the State of New York for
devaluing your property? And if you're the town of West Palm or the state
of Florida, couldn't you sue for loss of tax revenue? Well, at
like two things. One, I don't know that you would have standing to
sue the State of New York, and I don't know that the tax valuation
has changed. But what was interesting is yesterday in the ruling they said that,
and I'm paraphrasing here, I don't have it in front of me.
Basically they at this point they would have to estimate what the value is.
So you have a second set of judges who is simply saying that there's no
way to determine it's only worth eighteen million. So arguably it literally flies in
the face of the way that the ruling worked. I saw people posting that
yesterday, and that's true. So I don't know, sir. It's almost
as if it's a kangaroo court. So not beginning to think that. Well,
yeah, I bet. I'll just say. You know, if I
was his neighbor and all of a sudden they got deep value that much,
i'd worry about by property value as an investment. Yeah. Well. And
one of the ironic things, and thank you for the call. One of
the ironic things is one of the ways they arrived at that is another piece
of property which is less than a half mile away, which is sorry I
didn't hit the button, which is literally one third the size, sold for
one hundred and fifty five million. And you probably know the property. It's
Rush Limbaugh's old house if you look at it on a map, literally Limbaugh's
house, which sold for one hundred and fifty five million and is like four
acres versus twelve. I think mar Lago is kind of flies in the face
of what they were saying. So just throwing that out there, Jamal,
I got about three minutes. Go ahead, tall, little break, good
time, Come on. Then let's celebrate. There's a party going on,
ed naga, let's celebrate. Let's call me going on. Yes, boy,
say't see I saw that picture last night. Let me talk about that
picture. First. My wife, who usually don't get in a politics,
because walsall tell you she's a little, she's a little, she's a lot
different from me. She started laughing when she saw that picture. And I
hope y'all post it on KCO Day Morning show Twitter page or page for Sharf's
Twitter page. Make sure y'all check those t Twitter pages out. I hope
y'all check those. I hope y'all post that because it is comical. It's
almost like if you put your a mean one mister Risch and boy, you
can just see this to day right cry that she woke on Christmas morning Tharnald
Trump. It was so fun. Then watch them mentally break down. This
is one thing, Jamal, This is one thing, man. This is
just going to get crazier. MSNBC is going to be joy for audio for
me anyway. By the way, welcome our number three CaCO Day Radio program.
If I had to put a list together on what troubles the city of
Oakland, it obviously would be a one hundred and two year old veteran in
a wheelchair. Oh what is going on? Like I said, welcome to
our number three let me kick off here. So Oakland, which is basically
kind of a business ghost town, if you look at the stats for businesses
opened last year and the first part of this year, it's pretty much non
existent. Just isn't happening. In fact, we've had several stories including In
and Out Burger, Walmart, CBS, or Walgreens, one of the the
big pharmacies who've all announced either the closures of all of their businesses or at
least the halting in opening of any new locations in the city of Oakland.
In and Out was especially kind of humbling because In and Out Burger has never
closed a location. They're very timid in where they open, much to the
dismay of a lot of people. Look In and Out's great. If you've
ever been to an In and Out Burger, it's fantastic. I didn't truly
appreciate it because I didn't know what was up. I just remember kid in
Wyoming going to Sand Barbara for college, and they had an in and Out
literally on the highway right before you got off at the first exit for Galada,
which is a suburb of Santa Barbara and is the adjacent suburb to Isla
Vista, which is where all the college housing is. Where you see Santa
Barbara is. Although I think technically you see Santa Barbara's in Galata, the
Housings in Isla Vista, but whatever, And I thought, well, it's
just really good, but it's very cult like and unlike a lot of especially
in the nineties and into the two thousands, unlike a lot of regional branches
and what's the word on living franchises, they really didn't expand I think that
the majority that Arizona, Nevada and then California primarily, so they're very timid
in what they open. As a result, they haven't had to close any
So them announcing they were literally closing what was a very successful branch in the
city of Oakland. They only had the one, and I believe it was
out by the airport. And if you've ever flown into Oakland, which I
have, God help you not that you know, the San Francisco airport's much
better. Although we do have directs. There are directs out of Raleigh and
I want to say Greensboro. PTI also has one in the Silicon Valley area.
Yeah, it was. It was incredibly popular. So them announcing that
was closing, coupled with the other businesses, really let you know what was
going on. In Oakland, like even the advocates, the protesters, the
grievance mongers really only put up a little fight because like they know what's up,
all right, So why do I bring you this story? Well,
in between becoming a ghost town of shuttered businesses and a sky high crime rate.
If you remember, there was the woman who was murdered who owns or
owned a shop in Oakland. She went over to Wells Fargo to do her
standard banking and was literally murdered drug to death, I might add. So
it was particularly horrific. And then her friends like came out and they're like,
no, she was all about social justice, like this wouldn't change her
mind. And we talked about it because I'm like, I don't know,
maybe at the last moment she's like, yeah, perhaps I was wrong.
The City of Oakland has turned its attention to a one hundred and two year
old wheelchair bound veteran oh target that was the other one it closed. And
you know, so targets considered pretty woke, as you're you know, probably
familiar with, by the way, the target story because I do have it
in front of me. That decision was reached after one hundred smash and grab
thefts and similar incidents just last year, so every three and a half days.
It wasn't just people walking out with a cart full of stuff. They
were literally physically going in there and there were various assaults. There was obviously
damage, but there were violent portions to it. Before target pulled the plug
a Taco Bell that was the last one here, all right, this keyword
searched my stories. Yeah, last month, four Taco Bell locations announced they
were closing dining rooms so drive through only after. You know, basically they
were getting robbed every other day, fifty four just this year. So I
mean that's that's not even every other day. I mean, what have we
had. We've had what ninety days so far this year? Fifty four robberies?
Do the math? Well? Now, authorities in Oakland have turned their
attention to a one hundred and two year old wheelchair bound taxpayer, Victor Silva,
who is he's not lived in Oakland his whole life, just eighty years
of it, so you know, first twenty two years doing something else.
Has received a citation from the city threatening him with a fine of one hundred
or excuse me, one thousand, one hundred dollars after he failed to remove
graffiti from his property. So this poor guy's one hundred and two and you
know, in between going off taco bells, targets and the one and only
in and out location, the near do Wells also decided that his property needed
a gang gang tag on it, and he has He's decided he's not gonna
he's not gonna fix his fence. Yeah, here's the headline. One hundred
two year old Oakland man ordered to clean up graffiti on fence or pay thousands.
He's had enough. Silvia indicated that he frequently has had the fence vandalized
and has paid people to come out and fix it, but he's done.
Following a recent tagging on March nineteenth, so one week ago, literally one
week that was what Tuesday of last week, Silva said enough is enough,
and uh, he's not going to do it. I think he said he
paid one hundred and fifty dollars previously, who essentially had his to have his
fence fixed, but has decided if the city is not going to do anything
to you know, punish people or attempt to dissuade people, he's not going
to do it. And within a week's time, you have this city which
has failed to respond to all of these vandal You know, these vandals previously,
these armed robbers, which are causing business to go within one week's time,
they've already threatened a centurion or I don't even know what that would be.
Dude over one hundred. Silva, pointing out that people within his neighborhood
have been robbed, beaten, and murdered every day, says enough is enough,
and he's not paying again. And already the city said they would find
it's actually more than that. See the citation. Let's see the citation,
and the penalty would run one thousand, two hundred and seventy seven dollars.
And and look they're cash starved. Oakland and Stockton are in really bad places
financially. I remember Stockton, they what did they do like two years ago?
They did the bankruptcy thing. So now they're going to squeeze their their
residence for not you know, wiping the gang graffiti off of their fences.
And I did check. They literally never caught anybody, nor did they ever
search for anybody, as graffiti literally falls into the classification of crimes where police
can't be bothered. And in fact, the seventy seven dollars penalty is would
be the penalty for each time the property is inspected and fails. Silva indicating
that defense has been vandalized five times over the last few years, and each
time he was immediately presented with city officials telling him that either you fix it
or you don't. Now. They didn't give him a ticket previously, but
following his indication he's not going to do anything, they did issue a formal
ticket. Dude, I can't understand why. Look ill, let me say
this. I understand why people will stay in areas that they don't want to
live. They don't like the policing. They finally they find themselves handcuffed to
it. Financially, they're not able to make the move. And I don't.
I don't know what this guy's finances are. I have to think if
he owns a house outright in Oakland, even though it is, you know,
crap hole to the tenth power, that there has to be some value
there. But I don't know his housing situation. But I also understand where
he's looking at it, going, I'm one hundred and two, what are
you gonna do? Like, I feel like he could wake this out.
Probably he looks like he's in pretty good shape for one hundred and two,
but yeah, I don't know why you deal with this at all. And
the fact that city officials literally have invested multiple people's time into this to go
harass the dude is one hundred and two over vandalization, which obviously he doesn't
want any part of. He's paid taxes for eighty years in the city of
Oakland, and like, you've even told him you're not going to try to
catch the people doing this. Civil points out again people have been robed,
beaten, and murdered literally every day in his neighborhood for several years. And
he says he calls out Gavin Newsom, who probably if you remember last time
he was called out, got really really mad. I remember the waitress who
didn't know it was Gavin Newsom, and he literally he was asking loaded questions.
He's like, who do you blame for this? And she said Gavin
Newsom and he told the story about how he went to her manager because he
thought she should be fired. Well, I don't know what he's going to
do, the one hundred and two year old dude, but yeah, guy's
not happy, and he says he's not budget. Yeah, considering it takes
five years to throw somebody squatting out of your house, maybe five years if
you're lucky. I don't know why you pay any of this stuff, but
yeah, there you go. City of Oakland. Don't know why anyone lives
there. All right. So I mentioned what the city of New York's up
to in the state of New York in between these crazy Trump trials. Apparently
they have a big bootlegging thing that their work on. And I don't mean
like where you go to Chinatown and they have all the purses that you can
tell her not right, but yeah, they look pretty good. No,
no, no, it's something else that I didn't realize you could copyright.
I'll tell you what that is coming up, and what Israel says they found
in one of those hospitals that's totally not a headquarters for Hamas militia. We'll
give you the details coming up. Casey O Day radio program. All right.
So for those and by the way, I'm getting just blasted in the
email with conspiracy stuff. Don't worry, I'll be I'll be digesting that today.
So if you don't know, overnight there was an incident in Baltimore specifically,
you know Baltimore's harbor. I don't know where it ranks now. I
remember seeing some numbers obviously during COVID, but the Baltimore Horror is among the
top three in the United States for traffic, right and because they have a
great natural harbor there. And then you have the if if you ever go
to Baltimore, do you don't want to go to the shooting part. You
go to what are they call it the Inner something or other. And they
got a casino there, they got hotels, they got great restaurants. You
got the stadiums for the Orioles right next to the Raven Stadium and they share
a parking lot, which is you know, from a design standpoint, it's
pretty good. And actually went I went and watched the Rangers play the Orioles
there. Although what do they call it's bolt It's Orioles Stadium or Baltimore Stadium
at Camden Yards. So the old stadium was Camden and that's what they call
it now. But anyway, obviously they have a little problem. Basically,
you had a ship CALLI with the Francis Scott key Bridge and I'm sitting here
and I'm digesting this, and you got folks that are like, oh,
it's a conspiracy the cargo ship, blah blah blah. Don't I don't know
any of that, all right, So but if you want to go on
Twitter and read about it, it's all there for you. Basically, around
one thirty this morning, a large cargo vessel hit one of the supports of
the bridge. So didn't but they hit like the really bad part. I'm
not a bridge expert, but everything I'm reading is like, it would be
more fixable if they didn't hit that particular angle. And I don't is it
a draw or is it just I think it was the fire that did it
from what I'm reading here, all right, So yeah, here we go.
And as a result, by the way of striking it, it literally
decimated the road and vehicles fell into the water. So, I mean,
this was a bad deal. Let's see. Baltimore Fire Chief James Wallace said
two people had to be rescued. Others are believed to still be in the
water. What is the final update on this story? Eight fifteen am Eastern,
so twenty minutes ago. So, I mean, this is very much
ongoing. But as you can imagine that's a huge problem. I don't want
to pull away from the human tragedy side, right, that's an important component,
But also that's a huge issue as it pertains to shipping. Right.
And you saw what happened with slowing at just one port or I guess it
was all ports, but you saw what happens with even mild slowing with Long
Beach, Miami, Baltimore and everything. During COVID fire, Department Director of
Communications Kevin Cartwright tells AP, this is a dire emergency. Our focus right
now trying to rescue and recover these people. I now, I was still
in Minneapolis when I thirty five happened, if you remember that. Crazily enough,
I was actually at a radio convention that happened to be in Minneapolis that
year on the day that that happened. So we're all in Blaine, which
is like a northern suburb, and you have all these radio news people that
are literally in Minneapolis when it happens, and you know, from there,
I had to leave and I literally went to our you know, the talk
the FM talk station KTLK was the call letters at the time, and went
into reporting and ironically and I don't celebrate this, but if I had to
track back, the opportunity gave me the possibility to do my own show.
It was that. It was two things. It was that and it was
a tornado that happened several months before the I thirty five collapse in Lino Lakes,
which is a suburb north of Saint Paul, that went through a daycare
center and killed a couple people. And like, knowing that those were the
incidents that got me heard by management and given an opportunity to do a show
is kind of dark man. But also we had all these radio people in
town, and like literally like five or six people that worked for our company
for different like they came in and we had all these makeshift studios. It
was obviously a big deal. And where you think that they can immediately concentrate
on what's going on, it's much more complex than that. And it took
him days to fish cars out, Like there was a while that they didn't
know how many cars went in, and I want to say it was two
days later they found another car, thankfully the person wasn't in it. So
just watching what's going on here and having much deeper water to deal with,
albeit without the current that the Mississippi River provides, which is what the I
thirty five crossed. Let's see here the cargo ship, which was flagged out
of Singapore, is about one thousand feet long one hundred and fifty seven feet
wide, but officials referring to it as a mass casualty event. So I'm
not looking. I'm not gonna sit her on the air and speculate on any
event. It's it's unusual in the sense that this is like, it's not
an unusual harbor. The ships that come in to Baltimore. Maybe not all
the way into what's known as Inner Harbor, but at least that shipping area.
There's a couple bridges that they have to go by, not even team
the bridge is downstream right because the entries is through. Is it through Chessa
Peak? Hold, I just have the map up here, but you know,
Twitter doing what Twitter does. People are already wildly speculating here. Yeah
here, I just want to make sure I have it in front of me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, So it is they have to go through
Chesapeak and then they just don't cut up the Potomac. So, I mean
it's a huge waterway. Yeah, Let me, look at the bridge here.
Yeah, there's two bridges that they have to go through, and only
one if they're large ships. So eight ninety five, which is the Harbor
Tunnel, obviously is not an issue. So this is this is the main
bridge coming in. So what that's doing to traffic and around Baltimore is crazy.
Yeah, and then there's a third bridge if they want to go all
the way into the I don't know how to pronounce then, but yeah,
so you know, if you're a large cargo ship, this is this is
a regular thing. This is a this is a port and port of entry
that you know, frankly handles a significant portion of the nation's goods. But
what is unclear is because the is why they actually transcended that bridge, and
they're not even saying in the story here. So look, that's the extent
that I can give you. But if you want to wildly speculate whatever,
we're here for it. We'll take a couple of calls here in the last
segment. But yeah, that's what we got, and I'll fill you in
on the rest of that New York story. Got a little distracted lot of
emailing. Want to let you know where it's at that's where it's at.
But I it's probably a little early to start dipping into it, all right,
Race Stagic from the Weather Channel. Dude, I was just looking at
a matt. I didn't realize this is the secondary bridge in Baltimore that got
hit. And are you do you do hit with the Baltimore stations or DC?
No? No, but you know, any help? I mean right
right now that I'm just skidding. Yeah, I've been I've been to Baltimore
long enough literally to go to the casino in the Inner Harbor, a hotel
there, and to a an Orioles game and then like and then I watched
the the wire, So I think that makes me expert too. But yeah,
that's just weird because this isn't known. Like if you're a major ship
that cruises worldwide, Baltimore Harbor is like a regular stop for you. Yeah,
so yeah, it is crazy here. Yeah, that's you know,
for recovery efforts. Water temperatures load to mid forties and some spots it's colder
in the harbor where you know that water doesn't move around as much. The
winds are light, so the water isn't bad, but there'd be some rain
this week. By Thursday night there'll be another area of rain and could kick
up the water, so there's there'll still be recovery or rescue efforts are clean
up going on. So the weather okay now, but and next couple of
days it could be some rounds of gusty winds, high seas and all that.
So and this thing too high water. You've probably seen that pictures.
Brush it done. No, nothing's done, pretty said. Yeah, all
right, all right, anyway, let's let's talk about the weather here.
Sorry to transition you. What's going on? No, No, a little
tough, but yeah, I think one more dry day before the wet weather
arrives. And there's kind of two waves want to come in with a front.
Partly sunny today, especially in central parts of the state, so just
east of the Triad into the triangle in the east. But I think a
lot of that cloud wis start to come in and thicking up load of mid
sixties and then we'll get one round of rain to come in tonight. Might
sneak in to the further west you go. Later this afternoon. It's seen
some showers right now in the mountains, and we may have a little rain
overnight tonight into tomorrow. Tomorrow's highs in the low sixties could be a little
low in the action, and then on the front, a little wave of
low pressure rain's going to develop, and we'll get some rain back late Wednesday
night the Thursday, tapering off later in the day, but it's gonna kind
of cut the state in half. So tryad west less of a chance of
seeing steadier rain, and from the triangle east especially, there could be some
decent rain and maybe some heavier rainfall, a little breezy at times, and
that breeze and wind out near the coast is gonna be in high water and
dangerous surf or dangerous seas. And then by Friday in the weekend's gonna be
great, mid sixties and sunny Friday, Saturday and Easter Sunday, lots of
sunshine. Listen to this load mid seventies, very pleasant Friday, Saturday,
Sunday, a little rain to deal with. I'll have to watch that steadier
rain Thursday, and guys we're talking about it, we'll be able to show
you and tell you where that steady rain looks like it's gonna set up.
All right, Well, just don't screw with my golf. That's all I
ask. But don't try it. All right, thank you, sir,
and I'll look you this. How can you say it's unintentional if you watched
it. I have watched the video, you know what. Here's why I
can say. I don't know because I watched a carnival cruise ship drive into
another carnival cruise ship. I know you've seen that video, and I don't
feel like dou did it intentionally, so but who knows. Maybe something changes
my mind. But we'll get your calls and uh, we'll check in with
Bloomberg next. Hang on. Well, good morning, Casey. Stocks retreated
at the start of the holiday shortened trading week, but the stock market futures
are pointing higher right across the board this morning. The now futures are up
forty five. We just got word that there was a bigger that expected jump
last month and demand for expensive manufactured products. The government says orders for durable
goods increased one point four percent in February. A component of the report that
is an indicator of capital spending by businesses rebounded after falling in January. We
get the Conference boards March reading on consumer confidence ten o'clock This morning, Boeing's
airline customers got the leadership shake up they wanted. At the airplane maker.
Three of Boeing's leaders, including CEO Dave Calhoun, or relinquishing control. The
executives will be taking over now are inheriting may challenges, not the least of
which will be winning back the trust of airlines that buy Boeing jets. McDonald's
and Krispy Kream are teaming up. McDonald's US restaurants will sell three if Krispy
Kreme's most popular donuts, including the original glazed. Demand for the donuts topped
expectations at two test markets in Kentucky and Casey. Courts are going to have
to decide whether non dairy coffee creamer is a protected right. Pete's Coffee is
being sued by customers in Massachusetts, California, and Texas. Pete charges a
little extra for oat soy or almond milk. The plaintiffs and the proposed class
action claim they are lactose intolerant, and they charge the Pets is violating the
Americans with disabilities At OH Casey, come on, really, really, you
know what charge quadruple to buy something called oat or almond milk, milk.
All right, that's right. I'm fine with that. All right. I
hope they lose. Thank you, Jeff, appreciate it. Okay, Casey,
have a good date, all right, Look at that. I'm spiteful
to the lactose intolerant. Unless you're not complaining, then you're fine. Do
your thing, all right, Donna, what's up? Good morning, Casey,
welcome back. Did I hear you say that you saw the video of
the bridge going down? I did, Yes, yes, yes, I
was watching while I was talking. So does it not look like he turns
to hit the trust you know, here's the thing you no, here's the
thing you like? You could make an argument watching that video the dude's like,
I'm going to hit that thing. But also I've seen plenty of videos
including that. Uh it was a carnival cruise ship, and I think a
Norwegian that hit each other in like say Martin or something. And like I
used to own a boat that was twenty six feet and that thing doesn't turn
on a dime or stop very quickly. So a thousand foot ship, like
when you're moving, you're moving. So I don't know, I'll just withhold
judgment, but who knows. It's a crazy world. Maybe he did do
it, don't know. Yeah, this thing that he lost power, so
I imagine then he would have lost steering. Well, and keep in mind,
keep in mind people have this vision in their head that has shipped that
size. They're they're using a steering wheel. They're they're just not right.
They're using they're using bow and stern thrusters. A lot of times it's a
little toggle sw it's it's not like steering a car, so again, it
could be anything. But yeah, the video is is pretty janky looking,
so I would agree certainly. Is well, welcome back and happy birthday.
No, no, we're not doing that. Look at that Donald just got
hung up on that's her own fault. Janet, what's up? Go ahead,
Hey, I was just calling the sea now name the governor. Koper
is going to be at the microchip plant out in Power City that's outside yesterday
and all right, well look he's still the governor, so you know,
don't throw micro chips at him or anything. But yeah, but see,
the thing is the thing right in chicken coop because like he kicked everybody out,
Like my fifteen minute break literally turned into an hour break because they came
to me at eight thirty and said, well, leave and don't come back
for an hour. All right, Well, let yeah, you have free
time off, so what's the problem. Yeah, a little extra time off,
But I'm just thinking I could have used that time. And they're asking
him what he planned on doing about all the fentomyl coming across the border and
killing our kids out here in North Carolina, or maybe what he intends to
do about the cartel invade in North Carolina. I just had a couple of
questions. Well,
