Kcoday Radio program on the countdown to Saint Patti's Day that's coming up here,
you know, over the weekend. So yeah, you got that. And
I understand they're doing like basketball or something. College basketball. Is that a
thing going? Oh? Look at the ACC tournament? Oh man, that
was fun. Those there's ACC tournaments. Hopefully everyone in Greensboro's having a good
time with Oh I'm sorry it's in Washington, DC. Sorry, you know
that this is a point of annoyance for me and probably many of you over
the years who enjoyed like the ACC Tournament in not an insane setting. I
mean, don't get me wrong, the Greensboro Coliseum would be banging man parkins
sucked. Least he gets a barbecue across the street, gorge yourself there and
then sit around watch the games. Man. But it was it just felt
it felt local, you know what I mean. It felt like this is
this is ours, this is this belongs to NC. And I I hated
now where they're like, no, well, you know what we gotta do
is we had to do a Madison Square garden or up in DC. I
like, I'm trying to think, what is the well, I guess what
would the closest team or city with an ACC TV. Sorry, my brain's
not one hundred percent this morning on that question because I should have looked that
up. But I guess obviously one of the team's out of Virginia. So
I I don't know, man, Because it's like, it's about the venues,
and I understand it's also about the ACC having a product that even people
who are not ACC fans care about. Right, there's a lot of people
who may be root for, root for you know, an SEC team or
a Big ten or you know, whatever it is. And and yet you
know the draw of Carolina and the draw of Duke, and you know,
pick one or two other teams maybe on an annual basis that are getting it
done. It's a high bar, right. It's like it's like the SEC
for football, maybe not quite to that extent, but and so you want
to be able to show that off. You want to be able to make
it profitable for you know, for the kids. And still, man,
it's such a loss to not have it there. And then people will be
like, well, you know, could they'll rotate? If you look at
the rotation list, you know, once every quadrillion years, it will be
there, so shut up, all right, whatever, they got bigger fishes
to fry. So before you go and go fish, it's fish, yeah,
probably is, But fishes is a word too, so don't believe me.
Look it up. Fish can be you know, if you had one
hundred bass, then those would be fish. But if you had a bass
and a walleye and a crappie and that, then you would have fishes because
they're different species. Sorry, we're learning stuff this morning. So yeah,
that's trucking away. What a coincidence though, you get you can sports gamble
in North Carolina right the day there. I will say this, You know,
they had a much longer window to implement all of that, and I'm
glad state officials did the obvious thing there regards to how you feel about it,
just in the functionality, in the way that government actually carried some thing
out was mildly impressive. So any who, So we got that going on,
and we have another thing. So yesterday, if you were, I
guess sucked into the bubble of social media, it was absolutely inundated with the
testimony of investigator Robert Hurry investigated the you know, Biden and the documents.
Of course, it was his report that famously laid out essentially, he's too
old in senile to be held accountable. Yeah, yeah, too old and
seen off and and kind of it's intimated because it's two different times times.
Right, it's now and then it's whenever this crap started. And there's still
kind of leaning into the fact that it would be be cruel and unusual to
punish the the the doddering old man. And that really looked from an ego
shot standpoint, that fired up not just Biden, but it fired up the
the Democrats on the panel during the hearing. They were losing their everyone was
losing their damn mind, Adam Schiff, Thang, Thang's boyfriend, you name
it, just losing their crack. And then they would just say stuff,
right, it would just say like, here is a J. Powell or
however you say her name. The insane squad memory of this lengthy, expensive
and independent investigation resulted in a complete exoneration of President Joe Biden. For every
document you discussed in your report, you found insufficient evidence that the president violated
any laws about possession or retention of class find materials. Now, I just
see you understand how devious this woman is she is an anti American piece of
garbage. In my humble opinion, I think that she is delusional in uh
when I hear her talk about she had she had a totally unrelated thing yesterday
where she was just backcrap crazy. That being said, what she's saying there
is too is very intentional. Because now there's that audio clip I cut it
off before the response here, but understand that that's its own standalone thing.
And so if I'm a dishonest hack on Twitter, I can go, well,
uh yeah, during the hearing yesterday, Congresswoman j Powelluh, she she
laid it out and then boom. And then if you're some moonbat who gets
all your news from three Twitter accounts, the Young Turks and meth, then
you're like, all right, there's no here here. But there is more
to this cut. The primary law that you analyze for potential prosecution was part
of the Espionage Act eighteen Usc. Seven ninety three E, which criminalizes willful
retention or disclosure of national defense information. Is that correct, Congressman, That
is one statute that we analyzed. I need to go back and make sure
that I take take note of a word that you use exoneration. That is
I'm going to continue with my questions. I'm going to continue with my questions.
I know that's the term I ultimately reached. I know that evidence existed
such that the likely you exonerated a conviction. I know that willful reduction has
mister hurts my time, Thank you? So yeah, so what do you
got in the congressional record? There? You have her statement. You also
have the word exoneration used, hers trying to push back on it, and
you can hear that she immediately wants to put the kaibosh on that. Yeah,
it's not I'm literally writing a report and then from there it's up to
what the prosecutors want to do. Does literally how an investigator works, right
If like, that's not even that's not even how it happens with uh,
you know, the your local police office. You're you know, it's not
an independent Once something has gone that far where you have brought in, you
have brought in, you know, a full investigative task force because it's you
know, her obviously has people working with him for the number of interviews they're
doing. Once you have reached that level in some sort of investigation, I
obviously her is coordinating with the dog a DJ right through appointment and also knowing
who he's got to present to even if he is independent at the time when
he's doing the actual investigating. And that's that's how it works. Right.
Let's say it's Wake County. Right, so's some something in Wake County.
They have a team of investigators from Raleigh p D or the Sheriff's office,
maybe a combination of folks from the from the state criminal investigative folks, and
they go through it. They're also coordinating with the DA ed Lourene Freeman.
Right, here's here's what's Here's here's what we found during our investigation. Because
it's escalated to that point. So it's it just shows you how wildly dishonest
this is. And we'll play more audio and h well, you know,
we'll question the veracity of what's being said and break it down. But what
to me was far more fascinating, and this is where we're headed in a
moment, was the contents of the totality of the transcript. I'm not I'm
not gonna tease it above that because I don't want to spoil a minute,
but we'll get into it next here on the CaCO Day radio program. Bet
let me start with the transcript stuff. So again, this isn't where there's
audio, though there is some audio that speaks to a couple of these issues
coming up a little later. But these are I don't want to use the
term lighthearted, and I'll tell you why at the end, but these are
interesting would be the good the best way to say it. All right,
So uh these, Cobb, there's like five of these I pulled together.
So here we go. I thinks she's a few more. Okay, So
first this ah the car, all right, here we go. While explaining
why classified documents may have possibly been in his garage, Biden got sidetracked and
instead started talking about his Corvette. Loves that Corvette, right, it's in
a meme describing how much he loves test driving electric cars, and then made
car noises. It reads you quote, you know, think about this.
You had one of those big four by fours the I think it's the Ford
Bronco whatever. It is, zero to sixty four to six, to which
her replied, that's fast. Yeah, but do you know how it works?
Said Biden, her, attempting to steer the conversation back to the questions
and not. The Corvette started to say, sir, I'd love to,
and then Biden apparently interrupted him and said, you can take thirty seconds,
put your foot on the brake, hit it, and it's called launching,
which is something electric vehicles do. Is what he's talking about. You stepped
your foot on the accelerator all the way down. And her goes, oh,
right, like like he's humoring a kid telling him a story. Until
it gets to six or seven grand, then it will say launch, take
your foot off the brake. And then right after he said that, he
made a car sound that has been described as burr. I can't even do
it proper, like what the money machine does. It goes burr. So
all right, whatever, Yeah, it's dude's talking about cars. That's I'm
sure that's nothing. And then in another portion of the interview, and I
got to tell you what prompted this, because when you hear the answer,
you're gonna have questions. So her was talking about the Naval Observatory, of
course Georgetown over there the residents of the Vice President, and he said,
within the Naval Observatory, you mentioned a couple of workspaces earlier. This is
her trying to figure out all the places where Biden, from a business perspective,
may have laid his head. So and as you'll hear with some of
the audio, there was a lot more than just the thing in the garage,
A crap ton more so. But this is what he's asking about.
This is the boring part of it, except he made sure it wasn't because
after that question, along that line of questioning where they're just trying to document
all the places where he might have done business. According to her, Biden
launched into a memory early on in his legal career, right when he was
just a bad lawyer. And in it he talked about a client of his
who was twenty three. He worked at a plant of some sort, but
basically his gig was to clean. They would shut down the plant and then
like a window washer thing with the big you know, the big chimney,
right they he would he and others would go in there and literally have to
scrub the hydrogen off the side of it. Well, uh, he represented
this young man because unfortunately he showed up wearing the wrong pants, specifically jeans.
And why that's important is because, as you know, jeans have metal
rivets and he can't have metal in there, and the lawsuit was over.
Why did nobody notice or say anything any of that? Which, okay,
fine, that sounds like some people see over. But he then in detail
explained the injuries to his twenty three year old client, which, all right,
guys, you ready to You're ready to be wide awake for the rest
of the day. You want that little caffeine kicking the butt that this information
will provide. Because he was wearing jeens, and because of where the middle
rivets are, his crotch burst into flames and it burns so hot it burned
everything off. Interesting transcript moments. This coupled with the her testimony there in
Congress yesterday, which again was you know, it's a congressional hearing, so
it's going to be narrative driven. But like it, it was just getting
in comfortable uncomfortable at points. I hold one's where's mister pants to his chitt
area? Is Jerry Jerry Nadler? All right, I'll give you a little
wet'll slice this. We'll go back to a couple other points. And then,
like I said, we got more more audio. But it was the
defense that was readily apparent. At any point in your investigation, did do
you have any reason to believe the President Biden lied to you? I do
address in my report one response the President gave to a question that we opposed
to him, that we deem to be not credible. Okay, And this
is an important distinction. And actually this is also this is both a good
question and a bad question for Nadler to be broaching. It's from from well,
and we'll take it from his perspective. It's a good question from his
perspective, because remember, the out for Biden is essentially soinality, right,
so, you know, the inability to formulate the motive necessary to commit the
elements of the crime, which you know. Then the bad side of that
is it then raises the whole Well, if he can't, if he's too
out of it to go to a court hearing, how's he running in the
country? Right, So again it was a little more tactical on his part.
But yeah, no, no, that's all just weird. So anyway,
back to the cause, I'm saving a couple of these little moments.
Let's see here. Allegedly, Biden, according to the transcript from her,
on multiple occasions, failed to know what a fax machine was called. Or
was, which I don't know. I like, if it's yours eighteen year
old kid, and right, and he tell me he doesn't know what a
fax machine is. I'll I'll just old banchuckle on that, right, like,
ah, okay, and I you know, there's pieces of equipment from
you know, nineteen sixties and stuff that I I don't know that I can
adequately explain to you. Try to think what that might be. But who
knows, right, you don't know what you don't know. But Joe Biden
predates facts machines, right, So that's a little strange. But I forget
words too, But I don't know, man, this sounds pretty egregious.
Let's see. Also a line of questioning went into the Presidential Daily Briefing.
Okay, and so he's talking about his present presidential daily briefing. Biden used
the term as a hypothetical describe his routine around the briefing. So this is
how it goes. So her is asking about this, and Biden's going to
explain, really what that looks like? Okay, finally sounds like ron point.
And he then says, quote, I'd sit with my national security team
and say we should follow up on this find out more about whether or not
you know who killed. I don't know that I can say this. I
mean I can say it, but I just told you a story about a
guy who's private parts self emilated that the President relayed in the transcript. So
it's the word you would use for a male chicken, but could also use
as a a word for the thing that's self emilated, right if you wanted
to be graphic about it. And it's that word robin, which I had
to look this up, and you know, the last thing you want to
be doing is shoving that word into a search engine, even with the robin
attached to it. However, here, you know, this is something I
was not familiar with. It's a nursery rhyme from fifteen hundred. He might
be younger than that, I think he. I think maybe he might be.
And so he was kind of all right, you know what, Fine,
You and I grew up with fables and stories and stuff that was in
some cases stuff that is much older than that. Even right kind of makes
its way through. So fine he was doing he was doing. He was
doing an analogy or kind of a base generic explanation. So I'm sure it's
fine, what is that There was no need to share that you chose,
Violelce. I didn't choose violence. I chose I'm assuming you're referring to the
dude with the pants well anymore. But I didn't choose violence. Violence was
chosen upon me. I just passed it a little down the line. But
also, holy crap, good wonders for my being awake this morning, because
I actually I read that though that one this morning. Then there's all I
can think of, is all I can think of is the is that Sasha
Barrick Cohen movie Bruno? Right, there's this scene in Bruno where his character
is like is on like this this the light Jerry Springer light kind of show.
Right, So you got the host, the bombastic host. He's running
around, he's sticking MIC's in the audience members faces as people are asking questions
and reacting in real time, but also with the you know, a producer
infused exuberance and the characters up there. It's a really funny scene. And
he has like a little eighteen month two year old black baby, and obviously
Bruno and Sashabar and Cohen are are very white, and so he's got this
baby with a shirt on that says Gaby right, and in the scene because
it's about stirring whoever he's around, he was saying that he traveled through the
country of Africa and traded for the baby, traded an iPod for the baby,
and and half the audience is black. They're losing their c and he's
just stonefaced and in like, what's his name? And he said that he
gave him a traditional African name, and his name is oj And it's just
pandemonium in there. So anyway, long story short, Biden thinks Africa as
a country. Yep, that as well. According to the transcript, Biden
told her quote, we have a chance to fundamentally change and make different and
more secure that part of the world which China's influence is seeking to be profound.
Same way in Africa. I mean, we have plenty of people in
Africa, but guess what, We're gonna build the first transcontinental railroad across the
country, which, by the way, to incorrectly label Africa, it's itself
a country. In the same sentence where you use the term continental or transcontinental,
that's a special kind of wild man. And then finally, uh one
more and and that was Biden. Although this one, look, this one
actually sounds like he's he's joking, And yeah, maybe you could chock some
of the other stuff. But if you if you told me, obviously he's
making it. He's making kind of a weird joke. Whatever, that'd be
fine. And the same way that I thought it was really funny the face
he made of Marjorie Taylor dream right, And I didn't see his animosity.
I just thought it was, Oh, it was just a funny moment because
she's smiling back too. And I understand it's a bit of a standoff there,
But I wonder what's going through his head. Probably ice cream, I
don't know. So uh. At one point her said Biden joked with him,
said he hopes that when the team searched the Wilmington lake House, they
didn't discover the riscade Jill Biden photos. He says, you left everything in
place, right, I hope you didn't find any risque photos of my wife
in a bathing suit. You probably did, though she's beautiful, all right,
that's fine. So and I and I bring that one up, not
because I necessarily see it as problematic. Some people might find it a little
creepy. But this isn't an audio recording of her and Biden, So like
you have to add up the totality of how the conference because this is a
two day interview they did with him or over the course of two days.
So that's a past. But let's look, here's the other stuff and all
self immolating male parts aside and other stories. It not a doctor. I
just want to be abundantly clear. It sounds to me like it's It's like
it's not one indi visual thing. It is this this totality of things where
he's like he doesn't know the facts machine and then he doesn't know what it's
called, and it wasn't it was three times, three times wandering into random
stories. I don't know. I didn't even I didn't even look it up.
Did some dudes literally his pants catch on fire? And that happen?
Africa is not a country that one's easy to fact check. Uh, And
then what was the uh? The oh and the car noise thing again?
And I don't know, man, I That's where I start seeing things that
I recognize, having having dealt with a family member who uh who I watched
deteriorate my grandmother and one of the hallmarks of it was stories, right,
and and by the way, she wasn't a woman who told a lot of
stories. She actually, this is not the grandmother who was the of the
family ranch. This is the other side of the family, and in this
case is my mom's mom, and saying there was some family mystery there,
like she would never talk about specifically her parents. And I came to find
out after she had passed away my mom had passed away for that matter,
from another relative that the reason was is my grandmother was a little bit a
little bit ashamed because her mom was unmarried and she was living in Chicago and
she was hanging out with gangsters. Man she was a party girl all that.
So, like she didn't tell stories except during that time she would tell
stories, and some of them easily were provably not true. And it's not
that they were not true necessarily, they were just told in a way where
it was like even even my brain at that time, where I was just
into adulthood barely was like, Okay, I know that's not how it happened,
but she looks so happy telling it. And then it was just it
was just a polar shifting attitude so I don't know make of that what you
will. Obviously there's a whole lot more there, but I wanted to give
you a little flavor of some of the things that stuck out to me.
All right eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four Coming up on
the show, Oh we got we got lawyers, or not really, we
got fake lawyers. We got floridamand doing his thing, and so much more.
We'll get to it. Coming up on the CaCO Day Radio program,
Eco Day Radio program, And let's do this thing. Florida Men, Florida
Man. Is something in the wanderty error's hand that makes you do all that
crazy crap. It's like the state is wanna be dumb ass trapped. Nowhere
else has the Florida Man. It is almost like as the Weird Factor climbs
to find out it have it 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. It's fat 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, all
right, I'm gonna operate under the assumption that this is not the second Coming
of Christ but with a fiesta fetish. This thing is weird. Man,
A man adorned in a crown of thorns and carrying a pinata. I don't
know why that visual gets me. I mean, I had, you would
have a billion questions, although you would likely see this person and not want
to get within shouting distance to ask them. But unfortunately, when you're just
a seventy four year old woman minding your minding your own business, and his
lunatic walks up to you, it's probably gonna end up in the news because,
according to authorities, while wearing the crown of thorns and carrying a pinata,
he reportedly menaced an elderly woman as she walked to work. The suspect
denied accosting the victim, claimed he was only singing and dancing his Leprechaun song
in an effort to entertain the woman coming up in one hour. So yesterday
we chatted with the Senator Ted budd right, and I know, obviously the
her hearing the back and forth over I guess now the Biden administration says they're
going to send three hundred million dollars worth of weapons to Ukraine since they're not
getting movement on some of the other stuff that they wanted. And like,
those are all big issues, but immigration issue both is it exists now.
The horrible politicalization of what's going on here just with the base lies. Like
one minute, you're you're holding a press conference first day and you're like,
I'm doing ninety some things that are not going to be around anymore on this
front. You send out me Orchis to do interviews talking about all of these
border security things that that Trump had implemented, and even some that predated Trump,
I might add, the Biden administration is like, noah, we're gonna
get rid of those. And then when what is already a bonfire starts spinning
wildly out of control, it starts galvanizing people who may have been may have
not cared about the issue very much or even been in the camp, mostly
probably due to where they live nowhere near the border. That the problem itself
is just one trying to be ginda by Republicans. And obviously you saw what
happened when you had giant swaths of what is the term they're using now newcomers.
Newcomers, change that language. Baby, go to all of these blue
cities, and then the absolute meltdown you saw from like Mayor Adams and New
York and Bowser in DC and many others, the Chicago and not just they
also the freak out of the Chicago people. In these deep ninetieth percentile blue
districts, all of a sudden, people start kring and you're gonna run around
and be like, oh, we didn't do not we didn't touch we didn't
touch the vase. The last guy on his way out, he kicked the
table. Really, I don't know about all that, and people aren't buying
that, not if you look at the polling, and that is even among
Democrats, by the way, it's not quite fifty percent, but it's in
like the high forties. Last one I saw. But they were attempting to
go who do you think is most responsible for the current situation? So that's
you know, that's not what you want. And if you don't think this
Haiti thing has the potential to send this thing into the stratosphere, that's why
I'm talking about Haiti. Somebody wrote me an email yesterday bitching about the talking
about the Haiti stuff or was it no, yes, heir the day before
whatever talking about the Haiti stuff. And I think I mentioned it on the
show. Why you talk about this? But cuz it's not quite ninety miles
from the Keys right looking at you, Havana, but it's it's it's close,
right close to the Dominican Republic. And just for a visual in your
head, the Dominican Republic and Haiti share the Isle of Hispaniola and it sits
obviously south of the Bahamas, Turks and Caicos all that, so there is
more distance there. But we have already seen large swaths of people from Haiti
came in. And then, if you remember, Biden did this thing with
the return flights, and I was amazed they did it, but also the
way that they did it. We talked about it. They all right because
they'd crossed through the southern border and they're like, all right, everyone,
get on this plane. We're going to Florida. And they put them on
the plane to go to Florida. And I don't know at what point,
glancing out the window it started to click. I think it would probably have
to be I'm assuming the flight path put them out probably out you know,
out into the Gulf of Mexico. They're off, you know, down by
Houston or whatever. I try to remember where it took off from where they
had all the Haitian folks for the plane. But and then you know,
they're just waiting to see the you know, the pant and handle of Florida.
And then all of a sudden you're like, wait, what is that?
What's that? What's that big island we just flew over? And the
don's on them that that's Cuba. And then if you have a reasonable understanding
of the layout there, you know that you're on your way back to uh
Haiti. And that's what we did. And then seemingly it was within that
carve out. But and that did stem numbers. Actually, the actually had
an impact because word gets around that even if you go through the process of
sneaking Invya, Nicaragua or wherever and making your way north eventually in New Mexico
and then to the border and across that, it will even though you may
travel with people who will be just handed a slip of paper and turned into
the interior, you're probably going back. Well, now, if you don't
think that one the Biden administration's going to be like, well, we're not
We're not sending Haitians back. Look what's going on because of the turmoil down
there. You're nuts. Their problem is they have to they can't do it
publicly, which they would almost do if they thought they were winning the issue,
right they'd be like, what, we can't turn away these folks.
There's a warlord running around named Barbecue. Did you know that? Did you
know the dude who's kind of the top he you know, the top revolutionary
in all of this is his nickname is Barbecue. And we'll get into why.
There's some theories, but there's also this crazy debate going on over cannibalism
video. I don't know if you saw this, maybe not the video,
you know, I probably don't want to watch that, but it's it's really
weird the setting of the narrative that's going on right now, but the end
result. And the Minican Republic knows checks you what they're doing right now.
You know they already you know, they already post people up on that border
between the two countries. But that's on steroids right now. And look,
I understand if you're somebody in Haiti who's just trying to do what you're trying
to do, and it's your govern is essentially a criminal organization. And then
your your barrier, your neighborhood. And like I said, we can call
them barrios in Haiti, but your neighborhood and others are inundated with individual little
sects of gangs that control them. And you live in what are described as
shanty towns. And that's being generous. I understand. I understand why you
want to get the hell out of there. And it is that motivation that
overcomes the objection that may have existed, where it will be all for not
if I go through and try to enter into the end of the country,
because now you justify you. I'll take my chances and instead of turning myself
in or being in a position, I'll be much more secretive, or I'll
get in the Dominican or I'll get on a floating refrigerator attached to barrels,
which was an actvictual thing that somebody used to come from Haiti or excuse me,
from Cuba to Florida many years ago, like the blue barrels, and
it was it was like a part of it was like a chess freezer or
something. It was crazy and you just like you did ninety miles of that.
So this is Look, all of this ties together, all of this,
all of this is going to be interconnected. And so as I'm sitting
there thinking that, and we're talking to the senator yesterday. Sorry I got
off on a Joe Biden, so I'm calling tangents now. Oh he went
on another Biden. We'll see if that works. And as as as I
was asking Bud because here's the position of many of the the folks who this
their core folks, this is immigration. They want Republicans to roll the shutdown
dice. And the shutdown dice obviously is if you don't give us these and
then you know, whatever that list is border protections is part of our budgeting
process, then no doubt there's gonna be no budget. And then you go
into the government shut down and I guess if you want a theater it you
go and you start blocking off memorials. They're standing in the middle of open
public spaces, right because somehow you need staff for that, and you various
agencies do things, arguably not with the best intentions, but to put on
exhibition the pain and your pain. You saw it during that government shut down
under Obama with the way that the folks up there on the Blue Rich Park
decided to handle closures and what they were gonna do right where they decided to
really focus those cuts in the ways that would be the most visible, rather
than saying, all right, here's what we do have to work with because
it's already allocated, and here's how we can make it as least invasive for
people. No, it was clearly done, in my opinion, to provide
the maximum visual problems, you know, in the maximum possibility of problems that
a traveler who's just out for a drive or a weekend, or maybe they're
running the whole Blue Ridge as part of a vacation thing they're doing. They
wanted those to be as visible as possible, and you saw that with the
list that they shut down. And Republicans feel that they lose that every time,
even though they don't in my opinion, cave and they're fighting the media
on that stuff. But you never been in a better position, the GOP
has never been in a better position to accomplish two things, and times fading
on one of them. One is the expansion of vouchers or school choice,
and they should have they should have been leaning into this more so even and
harder. You know, right as things were reopening with COVID. That should
have been job number one, and there have and there has been some movement.
And number two the border issue, well, I want to know specifically
what they're going to do and what needs to be done. And you know,
at the federal level would be one thing, but also with the law
enforcement around the country. So I was having a conversation yesterday with Sheriff Page
from Rockingham County. Obviously they you know, they have issues like every other
county, they have unique issues to Rockingham if you live in Eden, you
know. And I'm just like, all right, so what do you want
as local law and for it? So I'm gonna have him come on and
tell you because we were asking but about it, and he had a whole
list of stuff, but I just bare bones. If you're a local member
of if you're the sheriff of a county, you're the chief law enforcement officer
of a particular place, what do you need to be able to accomplish what
you need to do. So we'll chat with him coming up at eight oh
five and frankly, uh, North Carolina lawmakers, well at least Republican lawmakers,
but all of them, they're gonna need to do this. And if
you don't, if you don't do it, you're acquiescing to Biden. And
let him come out and say this is your fault and now you're shutting the
government down and you're horrible and grandma's are going to be in the streets dying
and stuff whatever. Let him. Let him run that canard and then just
keep showing the videos and with what's about to happen with Haiti and I uh,
it's clearly something's going to happen on the refuge front. And when this
thing transitions to refugee, everything changes. So yeah, we'll get into that
discussion and I'll give you a little little roundup on barbecue. Okay, do
see you understand that in the video because there's some debate, but it feels
like six and one half a dozen of the other when you hear what I
had to say, So seven to twenty settle in that update next Cacoday radio
program, We're going to learn a new term here that I just learned moments
ago, and it's gonna be a doozy, but already, because we're so
good at what we do, I have also figured out how to save schools
billions, maybe trillions. If everybody jumps on board, I'll explain. Coming
up, we're talking about Haiti and barbecue, and I'll give you a little
more background there. I was just looking at this though, man being in
the right place at the right time. Let's see law enforcement in Wake County
with a rather interesting incident Tuesday afternoon, after they receive reports that people were
out on the road side of the road and literally it was like you know
that they you know that, remember that booth back in the day you'd go
in and all the dollar bills would be flying around. You got to try
to grab them. Well, get a little breeze, and money's flying flying
around. And they found out it was the result of a safe that was
lying by the side of the road. I don't know if they thought it
fell off of something, I guess, but that would have to be the
theory, because it ended up opening and money it was full of money and
was spilling out of there and so and by the time law enforcement did awry,
I've they say that there was still a lot of money in the safe.
They were there to prevent people from stealing it. It was blowing around.
Eventually, Wake County Sheriff's Office came and took the safe into custody,
and now they're looking for the they're looking for the owners. So it doesn't
say here if like how much because I guess that maybe they obviously they don't
know how much was supposed to be in there, but uh it, it
will be interesting right there. Ross, This wasn't your lanmdbow for the kids
fund? Was it? Well, side of the road, you might might
have make a call. Did did they find my safe? That? Oh?
I'm sorry? Yeah, Ross was editing something. Well they found us
safe? Yeah, and that was it was all just listen, okay.
Yeah. Was it like a like a secured box with like a lock on
the front. Yeah, but it looks like it had fallen off of something.
But I'm just trying to see if that somebody said, is that what
it? Yeah, it's a small all it's a small metallic box that had
like a lock in the front, a locking Mex's Is it that one?
Huh d? That's my favorite safe? Oh? What's your Wow? How
many safe do you save? Passion if you say us have safes inside of
a larger safe, right, they're like rushing the nesting dolls. Yet yeah,
they're nesting saves, Like yeah, yeah. So it's like when you
want to punk somebody for a gift and you do the thing where you get
a like nine levels of boxes and insides a blow pop or something, right,
You're like, ha ha, you thought you were getting something good.
He does that with safes to frustrate burglars. Can you imagine being the Ocean's
eleven team, right, I guess it would be Oceans twelve really, and
you break into the Haze compound because you heard that there's a big ass safe
in there, and then every time you open that one with your your stethoscope,
there's just another safe inside. This is sunk cost fallacy right here,
because in the mind kind of me, I'm like, you know what if
this bastard had a big safe and then he put a little safe inside the
big safe, I now believe whatever's inside the next safe is going to be
more valuable than I had ever imagined. So do you remember where you dropped
your safe? Remember specifically where that Yeah it was not it was only a
roadway, No, no, No, I established. I did established.
I mentioned that it was along the road. Well, yeah, there you
go. So I don't want to I don't want to give away too much
information because that somebody else could claim it. It's their safe. Dal.
It's like when you asked me where it's going to have our Valentine's Day lunch.
When I'm telling you that, I just assumed you would make something up
anyway. So yeah, no, but uh, okay, you're because already
gave him the description of the safe and they're going to tell him where what
Yeah, come on, yeah, and it being your favorite safe, I
understand. So anyway, so apparently, uh, yesterday, yesterday afternoon,
Ross was driving around Nightdale Boulevard and March Creek Road. That's where you were
right night. Yeah, so yeah, I just go I just walk in
there and claim it. In fact, you don't even they're very busy the
Sheriff's office. You don't even need to talk to anyone. Just roll in
there, man. Hopefully the evidence room is like where the where the New
Orleans one, walk in, taking the in or eat whatever you want.
So all right, well, I'm glad we solved that mystery. There.
Back to barbecue. All right, So there's two things. One this barbecue
dude who for all practical purposes, following the announcement of Prime Minister Ariel Henry
to step down under an agreement. And by the way, the agreement only
is that if he steps down, the violence will will pause. And the
violence is awful, awful stuff. The question, though, is is its
some of the videos emerge? Is it awful stuff go going on right now?
Is it people trying to create a false narrative? And you know,
most people don't have an independent connection with Haiti, so getting to the bottom
of the stuff can be difficult. And it's clearly also being approached in a
variety of different ways where it seems that the reporting has a definitive agenda.
My two cents, whether it is the sitting prime minister and the corruption that
is that government that's allowed the Clinton family to nest up in the country's natural
resources for years, they're just as problematic to the day to day ability of
the Haitian people to achieve anything, achieve something, achieve prosperity or at least
a modicum of prosperity. Right, A little goes a long way when you've
been living in the environment that has been Haiti for years because you don't have
a government you can turn to and the gang's there or all of this stuff.
So this guy, who again goes by the nickname Barbecue, and then
let me explain the nickname, by the way, because this will show you
the difference in reporting. People in Haiti will tell you that the reason they
call this dude Barbecue is he burns his enemies alive. However, one white
nighting reporter who is all like, hey, this is my chay ga Era
is like, no, no, and they call him Barbecue because he likes
barbecue, big fan of the pulled pork or something. Where do they get
that information from Barbecue? The reporter, when pressed as to why that was
the assert or that was the explanation for the name, said that the information
came from Barbecue. Yeah, as as this dude's trying to weasel his way
into running an entire country and galvanized people's hatred and distrust of government, who
may be at least ambivalent about this, Yeah, it's probably a better thing
from a pr standpoint, but I believe it might be the other thing.
And the reason is is he's a former law enforcement officer well corrupt. How
corrupt he, according to reports in twenty and eighteen, was not getting people
paying him his bride money that he wanted. And you know, there were
some problems in a particular neighborhood called the Saline neighborhood. And to send a
message for the uncooperative folks, it said that he planned and carried out the
massacre of seventy one people. Gangs remove victims, including children, from their
homes and their parents, and then the parents. And this is rough stuff,
but you need to know because this guy might be running a country today.
Who knows. He had his minions drag families out of their houses and
then they would take the children and execute the children in front of the parents,
including and I wish I was making this up. And by the way,
this is based on a sanctioning that the US government chose to do after
Treasury, Department of State, and you know, some three letter agencies I
suspect determined that this happened. So they went financially trying to you know,
freeze any assets this guy may have control of. And he would execute the
kids, either by setting them on fire or feeding them to animals, and
then kill the parents, just so we're clear. So what name do you
think Do you think that you think he's a fan of barbecue, you know,
a short rib or something, or do you think it's this because I
feel like it might be this. And then a video emerged and it was
claimed to be a video showing cannibalism. This is really it's really hard to
track this down. The consensus seems to be the videos real. Okay,
that's horrible. It looks modern, like it could have been done yesterday.
However, there are two democrat I call him propagandists on Twitter who with no
sourcing and I've looked, are claiming the video is actually from two years ago,
so it's you know, it's a lie to say it's from now.
It's from two years ago. And you know, let me ask you this,
how many of you, over the course of two years of your life
have made a major change. So you know, maybe instead of eating his
enemies to strike fear and not just him the video in this case seems to
be one of the undergangs doing it, but he's not in the video.
But I like, they're not all pescatarians now, if that's a thing,
because they're not doing it for sustenance, they're doing it to strike terror.
So yeah, absolutely, man, absolutely go ahead, and you go with
the he likes, although I heard he likes mustard based sauce instead of vinegar
based. So so that's haiti and a nutshell. And if you don't think
that becomes part of the immigration discussion real quick, Well, I don't know
what I can do for you. I can give you weather with raced Agic
to do that. Sure, Hey, man, I have a quit one
of my listeners sending a quiz for you. Okay, we weather quiz.
One question. Do you know what happened thirty one years ago today in North
Carolina weather history, superstorm of ninety three thirty inches of snow and rocky mountainboarding
to our our listener here. Yeah, yeah, that's the you know,
that's really the reminder that it's you know, it can happen in the middle
part of March right in some spots, especially a little bit dide. You're
talking. You're talking about a kid who had snow on his birthday in late
math every year. Well bright, I mean, you know, different climate,
but well so some out there that that's bordering on ridiculous. Man.
Well, it's you know, different climate, and you know, I think
the pattern of the overall to ten day for next week is actually temperatures that
are going to go down below average. So we are going to get another
chillier shot in here. If you've kind of planted anything, or I've got
some of the tender vegetation as they speak of, that might want to think
about, think about what you would do. Now, let's put it in
perspective. First, the average high low sixties. The average lows are in
the upper thirties or above that for a few days like today and tomorrow,
and we're going to be well above it today and tomorrow upper seventies today,
near eighty tomorrow for somemer lots of sunshine, and then Friday we'll see a
slight chance of shower still upper seventies to near eighty, and those showers and
utter showers will end Friday night, sending us up for a mild weekend,
great looking weekend, low to mid seventies. It's next week, we'll start
to turn slowly cooler into the mid fifties by Tuesday, and it's Tuesday night
we'll get a little colder too, So I think we'll start getting some colder
are end, then milder than another cold shot coming in the rest of the
month. Looks kind of up and down in terms of temperature. Some don't
see any extreme warmth, but maybe some days where we are below average and
twenties at night. So we'll have to start thinking about that. For you
know, all the plants has already start to come out and something that may
have planted itself. Okay, all right, well, yeah, I appreciate
it, sir. I'm just hoping for the thirty inches of snow, but
I guess and don't see it. Maybe the hill's a little putting thirty inches.
Now you come on and say that it is so April's not that far
away. Think about it. We'll talk it's not okay, Yeah, all
right, there you go, Race agent from the Weather Channel. All right,
back in just a few hang on phone number eight eight eight nine three
four seven, although I hold on to that number because we had a short
segment here and then we're gonna chat with Sam Page, the Sheriff of Moroccanham
County. Here's all that I want to do, and here's what you should
take from this activity. Ready, I want to know. I'm just done
screwing around with all this, right, and it's why I asked the senator
yesterday what are some priorities? And I like the priorities that he had there.
But the trick is Republicans have to be in a position to say,
look, here is the minimum necessary. These are the unbendable things that have
to happen, or it's governmental malpractice what we're doing even even funding anything having
to do with immigration. If the first thing we're not going to do is
enforce the security apparatus, you know, the the bubble, the ring there,
and then you can have all the discussions you want about what's the appropriate
number of legal immigrants, even discussions about refugees things, right, talking about
Haiti down there, right, you can't just ignore that. You got to
figure out how to address it. And then you can have a debate over
should we have refugee carve outs, how do you vet them? All of
the same stuff that you know, discussions they had around Syria and all that,
But you have to have the apparatus has to be there, or none
of the rest matters. But recognize also that you're never going to you're never
going to get you know, Democrats to yield on. All right, we
need money to round everybody up and depositive next week to wherever. Right,
So what's the bare minimum? So I want to ask the sheriff here,
because the bare minimum of the federal level, but also the bare minimum on
how it impacts public safety and so many other things. In other you know,
parts of the country that are not under the Fed's control, that's important
too. And Rockingham County, especially being a rural county, they have they
have pretty unique issues because they have a lot of people who may be among
these groups who seek out agricultural work. So as a sheriff, how do
you deal with that? How do you keep people safe? I want to
know what his checkboxes are. I want to know what our lawmaker's checkboxes are.
And then they need to figure out a red line. Okay, and
they don't need people like Senator Slenderman in there going oh no, this is
a great deal. You all are dumb, which is a paraphrase but pretty
close to basically what he said. No, no, no, unacceptable.
And if that means you got to go bombard Tillis's office with phone calls and
stuff like that, then so be it. If you're moved, but damn
it, know what the specific things are. And then the specific caveat is,
now, how do you apply pressure because if they're not going to do
it, then I don't know what you're doing for any of this stuff.
And then you know, even if moonbats want to be participatory and then go
back to, you know, ruining other aspects of society, fine, just
you know, drag people over if you have to. The interest is there,
the polling is there of concern from people of all political stripes, do
something about it. CaCO Day Radio Program, Thanks, thanks for hanging out
here on our Wednesday. All right, I'm gonna speed I'm gonna speed set
this up because I did a longer explanation just a last segment. So basically,
it's like d days that coming up there in DC. They got a
week, week and a half whatever, and the Republicans are battling with do
you want to roll the dice on shutdown or not? And it appears that
they're going with the or not with just the way that the House Speaker's handling
this. But how does what does that do for the immigration stuff? And
I don't care if Biden say he's gonna do stuff on his own at this
moment, in this time, they I feel like lawmakers who are pro we
better do something, regardless of political affiliation. I think that they're going to
have the best case for public support, even with the standard fear mongering that
happens. And so put the ball back in the court of your political opponents
and say you don't want to do anything, then we'll let the people think,
you know, evaluate what they think of that. And there are needs
at the federal level. That's why we'd asked the Senator about it yesterday.
But this is a problem that impacts all aspects of your life if not done
properly, and that responsibility then falls to local law enforcement, the head of
which for most counties in America is, of course, the county sheriff,
and Sam Page is Rockingham Counties Sheriff. Sam, how are you doing this
morning? Doing good? All right, let's let's get into this. You
and I have obviously chatted about this immigration issue. You are one of the
sheriffs who goes to the Washington d C. Radio row up there, and
I need to know from a sheriff's stamp, all right, So let's do
this before we get to solutions. Tell me what a sheriff in a rural
county in North Carolina where people say this ain't this ain't your problem. This
is you know, this is a border issue. Is a federal issue?
Do you three or disagree with that? And what does it look like from
what you're dealing with this standpoint? Well, I can tell you with fourteen
years of working on this conversation with unsecure borders and trying to work towards secure
borders and dealing with Congress, I would say that if you don't want to
support, if you don't want to do border security, then you're going against
public safety. It's been politicized and our Congress, our disadministration, and we've
got secure boarders because everything comes to the boarders comes to North Carolina and across
the country. And then we as sheriff and law enforcement officials officers, we
have to deal with those issues such as the increasing matt of fental coming in
that's taking what one hundred thousand lives last year. I mean that affects us
in North Carolina. Eleven people a day or estimated die to defend will cause
me and that's just with Centinel, and that's I mean talking about the other
crime issues. So what is let's talk just rocking him because I think people
in their head can sit there because the argument I see is why you know
some had no offense to you, but you know, you get people on
Twitter, they go, ah, you know, some yokel sheriff in the
middle of nowhere, nowhere near the border. Why does he care? And
I will in Rockingham County, what does your office deal with that you can
trace back to this issue? Just give me a snapshot of what your deputies
are dealing with on this issue. Well, I don't have the current number
of how many persons that have been crimly charged that are illegal aliens that have
arrested in our community and they ended up in our jail system, but I
can tell you this. Think about this in ten between ten twenty twenty one
when President Biden came in. Between that period, we were averaging about forty
eight percent of the people that were arrested that were determined to be illegally in
the country. The Independent of Jails had detainers the issue to hold those persons
to turn over to Ice, which we do on our detainers right now it's
about one or two percent. So basically persons that are getting arrested, they're
ended up in their communities that are coming into our jail thorty in our country.
Those persons were posting body being released back out in the communities because they're
not issued to detainers on them. This is and this is, this is
yeah, and this is this is a really important point that you're making because
we people are familiar with the detainer battle as we've seen it, and we
saw it a play out in this case in Georgia, in Athens as well,
because the suspect there had been arrested in New York and I think arrested
in Georgia also, UH. And in New York they slipped the detainer because
they didn't honor them. But this is not that anymore because under Trump they
were issuing them, is what you're saying. Now, you don't even have
to ignore them because they're not putting the damn things up right right. We
started, we were the first in twenty twenty, We were the first agency
in North Carolina to UH to be involved in that Warrant Service Officer program bring
that program in North Carolina. We were the first agency and now and that
was about a maximum about about thirty so, but what has happened is that's
how that's how the federal government and currently that's how Alexandra New York is in
his policies bypassed some law enforcement. We're trying to honor detainers to have persons
interface with ice to be removed from our country to protect our communities locally and
our country. They're not issue detainers, so that person have released back down
the community when they postponed and they had the opportune to reoffend against the immigrant
population and American citizens. What North Carolina especially on this issue, going back
a number of years ago, one of your colleagues, well, one of
your friends, actually i've seen you two together, the a sheriff a little
further down in the triad. There was they were going to make an example
out of him, right, So Judge, the DOJ went after Terry.
It was crazy, man. Did that have a chilling effect on other sheriffs?
I mean, well, I supported Sheriff Johnson, and basically the DJ
went after Sheriff Johnson over about a four or five year period and he had
to go through a lot of issues. But in the day, it was
sound to be not racially profiling and he was doing his job as he's supposed
to an examlement in the courts. Yeah, but the example, but part
of the example, not just that, but it was they put on trial
the whole old thing, right, the detainer. Yeah, you put all
of that on trial during that And you know that's in my mind, that's
just that's Holder, because it was Holder at the time, right, wanted
to send a cold or the president Malin Yesser, Yes, and wanting to
send a message like you don't even want to get into this, just don't
honor detainers and we'll leave you alone. And that's insane to me. So
that's that's the look of it. I want to know from you, and
I'm going to say, you're on a budget, okay, sheriff, Right,
you can't have everything you want, but you got to go in and
you got to get the very basics. Specifically, what do you, as
the head of somebody in charge of protecting public safety for one of the one
hundred counties here, what does the government need to do that will enable you
to provide better public safety for your citizenry? If I can may say this.
When President Biden came in, he ended the agreements and the cooperation agreements
with local law enforcement. What we had was a force multiplier of local,
state and federal agencies working together to protect America and protect our communities locally.
That those agreements went away, and so now we don't have that support from
the policy makers in Washington pushing down. We do work with our with our
federal representatives, and we do work with our state representation, but it's not
the relationship we had under President Trump. President Trump supported law enforcement, he
supported sheriffs, he supported chiefs, he supported our military. It was about
protecting America, and American people started starting out our borders and I remember some
from President Reagan said that the country without borders, it's not a country.
Well, that's where we were coming because of this administration and the policies,
the failing policy that are intended to fail, and you figure out what the
endgame is, what the end thing situation is to allow for a mass flow
of persons that are illegal coming into a country, brought in across and also
the federal government are facilitating the movement of these people. The NGOs and non
government organizations are making millions of dollars on housing on a company minors and assisting
in the movement of people around the country, which is going to affect demographics,
the electoral demographics in Congress. It's going to affect a lot of things.
But also here's another thing, not only public safety book, how much
is the cost in America? Estimated over one hundred and fifty billion dollars a
year it costs to handle and build the process with persons that are illegally in
our country. In North Carolina it's three point one four bion dollars according to
Fair So it is a big cost factory. And then we have our own
homeless, our veterans and needs service, our children needs service, tools that
need our financial support. There are a lot of areas in America that we
need to be doing things for the American people, but instead we're supporting another
effort to provide for a mass migration to our country. I mean, what
I worry about, Casey, what I worry about is this. We had
nine to eleven. It took nineteen terrorists to take down three thousand lives of
American precious lives of American citizens, but estimated what over a million God always
have come into our country who immigration and border security do not even know who
they are that have come into our country, and I worry about not just
just persons coming to our country, a person coming to our country to have
the intent to do us harm. And I'm worried about the next nine to
eleven across this country. What I was going to ask, how many within
the North Carolina delegation of lawmakers, so you know, a House and Senate
obviously, how many how many folks have you talked to during because you know,
you go to Washington, you do these things, and where are their
heads at? Do you think that there's a chance that the GOP will be
willing to say, look, this issue is important enough, here's what we
need to do, and if we don't do it, then I'm sorry,
then we're not going to get a budget passed. Are we there? And
what's what are you hearing? I think we're there, But like I told
you before, fourteen years I've been working this immigration and border security project myself
and communicate with sheriffs across North Carolina and working with sheriffs across the country.
You're talking about Congress. I think there are many in Congress that don't have
the will or desire to do their job, which is to stand up and
protect America and if it means, if it means we have to we have
to go towards shut down. Uh, we already have a pilot. We
already have a bill, House Bill HR two, which is the most well,
it's one of the strongest border security bills that has come to pass.
And then you had the Senate Lane for bill, which was a faving bill.
It did not end the catch and release and had a lot of other
problems with it. But they're not even entertaining HR two. Why would anybody
in Congress, I don't care what your party is, Why would you not
support a bill that was there that had all the areas covered which would help
to protect American the American people. That's a question you need to ask your
senators. Get on the phone and call your senators and your House members and
ask them why are they not supporting House Built too, which was a good
deal, a strong bill to protect American American people. Do you think?
Let me ask you this. Joe Biden said that they may quote do something
whatever the heck that means. Are there things? Because look, I agree
with you in the sense that I feel much more comfortable with legislation and you
know, the president's signing than executive orders. Would it be adequate in your
mind if Biden was to say, look, while we work on this,
rather than shut down, let's go ahead and we'll just do We'll start doing
all the stuff that we were doing. That's not even Casey. You're you're
hitting the point. The present has the power and the authority. If I
just say this, a few things real quick to use to use expediity removal
for illegal border crosses that are set forth in the law, to use uh,
to use available detention beds instead of releasing persons catching release back out of
the communities, reinstate remain in Mexico policies such as under President Trump. Uh,
they stop. Uh, let's see stop issuing illegal aliens work permits.
You know, look at how our parole system is for for dealing with immigration
stuff and how it's being abused. Our asylum program has been used. Uh.
I mean those are just a few things. Oh, here's another one.
We need to continue to start back cooperating with local, state and federal
law enforcement working together starting from Washington. Dam You know I said we lost
we lost that cooperation with the policy makers in Washington under this administration and al
Allehandra New Yorkers has failed the American peace people. And the president has the
power right now, without any other legislation, has the power to flip the
script and go back on some of these programs that were actually working to protect
America. And I need mentioned the border barriers. There was it three hundred
million dollars worth of a border barrier fishing. I've been to the border and
took photos where it's just staked. They're just rusty, right right, yeah,
And these barriers are does not not not to just stop some but to
slow the flow of people coming across bords such as just like the rear grundy
them and they're real in those areas where they put up the barbed wire and
the constium wire to slow persons from trying to come into the country. Which,
by the way, a judge just held the stay on Texas, so
they because they're currently Texas, is forbidden by this federal judge of continuing to
do that, although they kind of didn't stop much, but the courts have
now said that they're going to hold that until they can actually have a bigger
hearing. So that's on pause. Even that small little thing that was going
on is on pause right now. You know. See, I never thought
I see a time in my career I've worked a law enforcement more than forty
years. Forty years. I never thought I see a president that would work
against a state which has a right under the constitution to protect themselves from an
invasion. And they're not They're not in uniform. Is why I was told
that they can't by that judge. So that's that's just insane to me.
No, honestly, can you imagine if the Chinese army shows up here but
they're in casual address. I mean, what does that even mean. It's
like, is it an invasion a problem or not? The invasion may be
a strong word, but it may not be too strong for this. Well,
if you read the Constitution under I think under Session what one three and
four, I think it pretty much says what the president can do and the
rights of the state and the rights of the government and responsibilities to protect America
or protect the states. And I think it's I think our constitution has been
ignored. I think the people in a in a state are being ignored.
I think people in our culture, country, meaning ignored, and public safety
is the first responsibility of government, and somewhere in our Congress and somewhere in
our in this administration, have forgotten that responsibility. Real quick, you just
got this email and then we'll We've got just about a minute and a half.
Sure, he goes, Hold on, he goes, talk about cutting
off your nose despite your face. The sheriff of a rural, agricultural based
county doesn't like immigrants. You can't make this stuff up again. This is
that conflation of immigrants. Do you do you sheriff and folks in Rockingham County,
do you have a problem with people who are immigrants? Is that the
beef? You know? You know, that's that's a that's that's a sad
commentary. My position is this a support legal immigration. Our country is a
country of immigrants. But the rule of law is the rule of law,
and that's where our elected officials in Congress have the responsibility to make sure that
our administration is doing their duties on you know, what was I want to
take it back to the state level. When was the last time you had
attorney generals taking the issue up with the president of not doing his duties?
Well, I mean in Congress, you know, not here, not here
the Ken Paxton. I guess maybe in Texas. Yeah, exactly, a
few, a few. But one thing about it is I've been down to
Texas. I've been along the rid of Grandy and one thing can I tell
you this, Texas is protecting America. The troopers, the DPS, the
National Guard, and the National Guards that are cooperating across the country or going
down there, they're helping to protect America. It's a sad it's a sad
commentary that are unpleasandent doesn't doesn't recognize that, choose to recognize that and choose
to support the effort to protect our country. Sure, Sam Page Rockingham,
can I got a role, sir, But like you, I appreciated man.
Yeah, Pete, And you know what, reach out to the delegation.
Let him know this is a play. That's what I was gonna say.
Call your congressman, call you and tell them how they need to hear
from you. When I tell you, I love my country, i love
my state, and I'm going to continue to do what I do is to
share to protect my community and the services. Cami, I gotta I gotta
roll, but I appreciate the time. We'll be back here we go our
FK Junior. Independent presidential candidate r FK Junior talked about his short list for
VP nomination in an interview with The New York Times. Kennedy said that quote,
let me uh uh, all right, so this is quote, these
are the people at the top of his list, and uh he said,
it's a very short list. And two of the names at the top are
Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers or Jesse Ventura, obviously a wrestler. Governor, right,
So my question to you, would you rather have Aaron Rodgers or Jesse
Ventura? Where's your head at if you had to pick between those two,
because apparently they're they're high up. There a few other names real quick.
Uh, let's see. Kennedy has also gauged interest about Tulsi Gabbard, Rand
Paul Andrew Yang. And I think that's it, all right, So let's
go at the top two ross your team, Rogers or Jesse Ventura. I
think I'd have to go, uh, Jesse the body. I'm I'm almost
I'm almost with you if but forced because here's the problem. Aaron Rodgers played
for the Packers, so inherently, I've I've got that thing, uh so
that you know that that pushes me to Jesse. The difference is I lived
under Jesse Ventura when I moved to Minnesota. He was the governor, and
I could tell you Jesse Ventura stories from media events like we had. I
told you about the Fishing Opener was is a big is a big event put
on by the Governor's office in Minnesota. It's obviously it's a huge, huge
industry there, and so they gather media from all over, like fifty of
us and we picked. They pick a lake in Minnesota, and the governor
and some other folks go up in sponsors and it's all about, hey,
here we are. It's the Fishing Opener, which is in May and and
when I say open, it's for like Walleye, uh, Northern Pike,
a couple of other things. So it's but it's a big deal and it's
like it's always interesting. I've been to it under Republican Governor Tim Polenni most
of the time, but I did do a couple of Ventura ones and he
he escaped one of them, and nobody if you go back and look at
the archives during the fishing opener, which was on Rainy Lake, which is
right up in the Canadian border by international falls. They lost the governor.
The whole thing was wild because at first he showed up for boat launch and
the wearing like one of those military neapreme seal suits. This from a man
who accepts the nomination with a feather boa when his cubernatorial victory, I should
say, the offense the victory with a feather boa on the steps of the
state capitol. So he was decked out like it's, you know, a
command bo and then everyone goes out to fish, and then everyone's supposed to
come back and they have like, you know, some silly little awards,
but they have some different stuff, and he he didn't come back and nobody
could find him. And this was a man who issued press release of press
credentials that said media jackals on us. I'll have him one in a box
somewhere. And it was like this rainbow coyote. It was the weirdest looking
thing and it didn't matter whether what enttity you were from. So he was
kind of one of the og media haters there. But also he was such
an angry dude, so that weighs in my mind, but I think it
would be more entertained than Aaron Rodgers. So yeah, you know what I'm
gonna go with, Ben. Can we swap Ventur out for like Rick Flair
or something? Though? Who what press look? Out of scil of one
to ten, How excited are you to watch a Kamala Harris press conference?
Is it a negative number for most most people? How excited would you be
able to watch the real life version of President Camacho from Idiocracy? You'd you'd
be setting three alarms, right, you know what to dare miss it?
So that's the thing that's out there. Just I'd see where your head's at
on that is that May and Minnesota so ice fishing. There were some incidents.
My other favorite one is we were all because the governor sometimes stays at
the same lodge we're all at and we were in Bedet on Lake of the
Woods. He did and he apparently got so hammered on tang Ray. He
was down. He was at the end of the hallway with the whole hallway
the rooms are all mediate people and he's screaming through the door at his staff
at five in the morning, which is you know, because the launch is
like five thirty or whatever. He's screaming at his staff that he drank all
that tanger. The bottles are outside the damn door, and he's drunk to
do it. By the way, where they found him. He runted a
houseboat, went to the Canadian side of Rainy Lake and hid for days.
They were literally writing stories like what do we do? Like it was a
constitutional crisis, almost just nuts. But it is that level of entertainment that
has not been within the VP's office for quite some time, so I might
be good there. Oh. Also, I said we were going to learn
a term. All right. I just learned this term this morning. I
know that they've been jacking with commencement ceremonies. We had nothing to do.
But this is a twist. School districts in the US and Canada are in
some instances moving towards what is now called inclusive commencement ceremonies. So what the
heck is that this is not the one where they do different ceremonies for different
races, like a couple of universities said they were going to do, and
people are like, is this nineteen sixty what's happening? No, the way
it works is this. And in Canada, actually Ottawa, which is one
of the largest school districts in the country, Ottawa just decided to do this.
So the way it works is this, if you have a graduation,
which when I was a kid back in my day, we had one in
eighth grade, and then you have one in high school. Right now,
there's like the amount of graduation ceremonies parents tell me about. I'm like,
why is your fourth grader having a graduation? So what is going on?
But whatever, there's more of them. So, but those graduations tend to
be kids who are graduating. You know where this is going, don't you.
You know, because they met whatever requirements they had to, whether it
was credits or GPA or days spent whatever it is. But with an inclusive
commencement ceremony, even the kids who are not graduating would walk a graduation because
right now they feel left out. And so I'm like, are you what
can you imagine being a kid who put in the work and you go get
your diploma. Even if you sweep bye, you still did a lot more
than some of your classmates. You didn't do any work, didn't give a
crap, Probably were disciplinary issues. So anyway. All right, all right,
let's get just think about that. That's what that means. All right,
let's get race stagic from the leather pocket. What's up? Stir not
that much? Now you your way? Yeah, let's send Yeah. Yeah,
this is real good. I mean, I mean, if you want
to get outside and joy some great weather before we turn cooler again to colder
next week, do it the next few days and join the sunshine. Even
looking at the satellite picture right now out near Hickory and Boone and Marion,
in Nashville and Hendersonville, there's a few clouds they may try to come across
to try it in the Triangle because the flow is west to east. But
other than that, another than net seventy six seventy seven today somewhere around there,
with sunshine tonight in the forties, even milder tomorrow, especially for the
te Angle, where we may hit eighty probably seventies in the Tryad and points
west, and then small chance of a couple of showers on Friday. Now
we get into that mention of showers for Friday and Friday night, but it
really isn't gonna be anything widespread. We're still warm and near eighty degrees Friday,
and then the weekend, we'll take it into the mid seventies. Saturday
and Sunday look really good. A little bit more cloud by Saint Patty's Day
Sunday, but it's next week. By about Tuesday Wednesday, we get a
little colder. We could see some nighttime lows go back down below freezing.
So we're not done with that yet, Casey. The colder temperatures at least
thirty two or lower. I think we got a shot at that as we
get into next week, as the six to ten day outlook is for below
average temperatures in the southeast US after this week. Okay, thank you,
sir, appreciate it. Yeah, and we'll chat with Jeff Bellingcher next.
Hang on. Good morning, Casey. Stocks advanced yesterday despite that report that
showed inflation slightly hotter than expected last month. The S and P five hundred
settled at a record high this morning. The futures are mixed. S and
P and NASDA futures of both lower. The Dow futures are up thirty three
points. TikTok's chief executive was on Capitol Hill yesterday lobbying against a bill that
would force the app's Chinese parent, Byte Dance, to either sell TikTok or
face the possibility that the app could be banned in the US. A House
vote on the measure is expected today. Dollar Tree saying this morning it's going
to close about one thousand of its stores as it tries to become more profitable.
The discount chain has been dealing with litigation and other issues, including complaints
about working conditions. Dollar Tree says about six hundred Family Dollar stores will be
closed in the first half of the year. Additional Family Dollar and Dollar Tree
outlets will be shuttered as their leases expire. The nationwide staffing network talent Launch
is being sued over a twenty twenty three data breach. Plaintiffs charged the Talent
Launch failed to protect their personal information and the company waited ten months to notify
more than one hundred twenty thousand people whose data was exposed. And Casey Christopher
Nolan has reportedly had a very big payday as director and producer of the biopic
Oppenheimer. Variety reports Nolan has earned nearly one hundred million dollars. Now that's
a combination of salary, back end compensation, box office escalators, and a
bonus for winning two oscars. Casey, alrighty the dollar tree thing, that's
great. Hey, we love some dollar stores in North Carolina. I'm concerned
that we well, people won't know what to loot when hurricane season comes,
so closed to many of those. Man. All right, well, thank
you very much, Jef. Okay, so talk to you tomorrow. Yeah,
appreciate it. There you go, Jeff Ellinger, Bloomberg News. Dollar
stores are kind of there's still mentally kind of a trip to me because like
random dollar stores, like literally in the middle of nowhere is just not a
thing anywhere I had lived before. So you'd be like, I love,
you know, driving around the mountains, right and you just be between you're
between two towns, and I understand what they're doing. They're kind of that
and it up central so everyone can go there and they just boom, there's
a dollar tree. Or like when I'm driving up past Elkin up to up
to the roying Gap Glad Valley area, there's a couple as you're going through
like State Road and all that, and a newer one too, just kind
of randomly there. And it's like how many dollar stores DoD you? But
they're always busy, so fine. I always thought like when the whole Chinese
spy balloon came through, right, and it was coming through North Carolina,
That's what I was thinking. Like they must have been looking like why are
there so many dollar generals for dollar stores like that? They had to be
back in shining on. What is this about? Yeah, well it's secret
underground tunnels, probably like the mattress firm or whatever. So but yeah,
and then also seemingly it's the first thing that gets looted when the hurricane starts.
So whatever. But did you say that on the air? I had
to laugh. I didn't remember if you said that, or do you tweet
that out or something? No, it's just a thought I had. Oh,
okay, all right, yeah, that has to be confounding. I'd
be like that s flying over, You're like, why is there so many
wet markets? What's happening? What's going on? But do you eat so
much? Oh? So you could get fresh pangulin? Okay, all right,
one other thing before we get out of here, do you remember,
well, at least I don't know how far removed you have to be from
the age Ross and I are. But if you're our age, your early
forties. Your childhood. Every Saturday morning was inundated with Space Camp ads.
Remember all the Space Camp ads. And then if you were not wealthy like
we were. I remember even bringing it up to my mom, and I
thought I was gonna get grounded. She's like, no, you can't go
to space Camp. I just assumed you show up. It's like some you
know, some old top gun guys, some folks who made into the astronaut
program. It doesn't even have to be people who went up. Maybe on
one day you meet somebody who went up whatever. But I just assumed that's
who's leading this thing. And then I see this A politicians in Alabama because
Huntsville, right, Huntsville, Alabama have express concern following a video that went
viral of one of the leads. So that the you know, the folks
who were literally in charge of the children that are there, was well,
it's interesting. There's an interesting backstory. The employee known as Molly Bowman,
not that is Molly's trans as a trans woman, that is the name Molly
goes By, who has a degree in graphic design, is apparently in that
position, specifically team lead and a within the girl's dorm also one of the
monitors in ras SO, so team lead on the learning side, and then
also bunking within the girl's dorm to keep watch over them, including in the
girl's shower room and locker room. And one of the parents is like,
what's going on here? One, you know, you didn't say anything to
us. Two it's going on in Alabama, So people are gonna have thoughts
there based on some of the state laws. Albeit a federal facility kind of
but yeah, yeah, I just assume that's what it is. And then
you go in the big gyro thing that spins you around till you puke.
I just assume that was all of space Camp. But apparently there's there's more
going on. Did you ever want to go to space Camp? And then
they launched you into space accidentally? And then then you have to land the
shuttle back on Earth. It wasn't on the commercial. I was in the
movie back in the day and the eighties. Remember Space Camp. I think
they had Jerry O'Connell in it. Yeah, I never I know, I
vaguely know that. I never saw the movie. So the premise is what
the kids that you know, the space Camp? And if I remember correctly,
they gave the kids a tour of the actual going to go there doesn't
work right, and actually, you know, hy jinks happened, shenanigans and
it takes off and they find themselves out in space. Is it just the
kids or was there a chaperone at least? I also want to say,
I don't know if this is true. I think what's her name from Sex
and the City, The Hideous One, the horse Face one, she was
the navigator. Yeah, maybe she was in that too, or maybe I'm
conflating the two movies. But if I remember correctly, there was an older
adult who tried to help them or older adolescent who tried to help the kids
land, and they end up landing, and yeah, it's it's considered one
of the hardest things to land ever created. The shuttle it I think they
put an autopilot. That's how that works.
