Speaker 1: You think of that level. Ross, were good, all right?
Speaker 1: Do do do from the frozen tundra that is the triad. Dang,
Speaker 1: it's cold this morning. I know many of you listening
Speaker 1: and haven't left your house. You're looking out the window,
Speaker 1: you're dreading it. It's worse than you think. Ross. Are
Speaker 1: you guys you build nigglos over in Raleigh this morning?
Speaker 1: Or are things shaping up over there?
Speaker 2: I was cold, but I was kept warm by freedom,
Speaker 2: so it's good.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, Yeah, that was Yeah, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: freedom yesterday.
Speaker 2: Like I got up and I was like, man, it's cold,
Speaker 2: but oh man, I'm so free.
Speaker 1: What was I'm sorry, man, I found myself. I texted
Speaker 1: this too you and I don't know if it came across.
Speaker 1: You know that thing where you're like, you're just kind
Speaker 1: of like that where you just there's a little bit
Speaker 1: of laugh in your voice because you're having a really
Speaker 1: good time watching something like you don't get that very often.
Speaker 1: A lot of times it's momentary, like some guy cuts
Speaker 1: you off in traffic, he's giving you the finger, and
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden he rear ends, you know,
Speaker 1: an unmarked police cruiser or something, and you're just like that.
Speaker 1: A little bit of karma brings. I felt like that
Speaker 1: all day yesterday, all damn day, even when the the
Speaker 1: old stallwarts, okay, the old stalwarts were happening where apparently
Speaker 1: Elon's doing Nazi salutes Melanius I woke up to. I
Speaker 1: didn't know her dress was Nazi or something, does anything.
Speaker 1: I haven't researched this yet. I'm sorry. This is my
Speaker 1: one blind spot because I didn't see it. So I will,
Speaker 1: I will attempt to understand what it is and and
Speaker 1: and you saw so much of that. I flipped on
Speaker 1: Good Morning America for the five o'clock this morning, and
Speaker 1: immediately it was all onminous J six stuff, which we'll
Speaker 1: talk about. Look, I don't agree with the president on
Speaker 1: everything he did, even if I understand his reasoning. And
Speaker 1: that's okay, that's fine, that's you know, that's what how
Speaker 1: adults do this? And it was from the jump the
Speaker 1: worst day in America all over again, And they did
Speaker 1: in depth profiles of I don't know about a half
Speaker 1: dozen people, primarily the proud boy folks. And this is
Speaker 1: where I do have some problems. Right. In fact, the
Speaker 1: fact remains that you don't get to chemical spray police.
Speaker 1: That being said, there's a lot more to it in
Speaker 1: the sense that, okay, was their fairness in the application
Speaker 1: of that meaning we saw during you know, for years
Speaker 1: where people would assault police and then in some way,
Speaker 1: shape or form wouldn't be prosecuted for it or they
Speaker 1: wouldn't actively pursue them. Now I'm want to those people
Speaker 1: where if you're assaulting a law enforcement officer who is
Speaker 1: acting within the bounds of their duties, then you need
Speaker 1: to penalize that. And if you kill a law enforcement
Speaker 1: officer in the course of their duties, and I know
Speaker 1: some of you are like, dah, what's the difference here?
Speaker 1: The difference you know, if you kill a person, you know,
Speaker 1: a non officer or an officer, why should one be
Speaker 1: the other? And you can go ahead and think that
Speaker 1: because there is a secondary level of deterrence there, right,
Speaker 1: And if that secondary level could lead to more people
Speaker 1: getting arrested or less people getting murdered, I'm okay with that.
Speaker 1: That being said, when you prosecute none and either arguably
Speaker 1: over prosecute or at the very least you actually apply
Speaker 1: the law and you give them that sentence is the
Speaker 1: answer in fixing it to go back and unprosecute or commute. Well,
Speaker 1: if it was a perfect world, from a fairness perspective,
Speaker 1: it would be no. It would be to go and
Speaker 1: prosecute those who either went unprosecuted or going to slap
Speaker 1: on a wrist. But that our justice system doesn't necessarily
Speaker 1: allow that. There's statutes of limitations, there's you know, double jeopardy,
Speaker 1: there's a whole host of things. So in Trump's mind,
Speaker 1: this is how you achieve fairness. And if they had
Speaker 1: just stuck to it prosecuted, you know, a handful of
Speaker 1: people twelve or fifteen or whatever that number is, with
Speaker 1: the commutations following Jay six, we wouldn't be here. None
Speaker 1: of this would be happening. And and they just went
Speaker 1: on and on and on this morning, and then as
Speaker 1: an afterthought they went ah, Also, I Biden did some pardons,
Speaker 1: and some people weren't happy about that. But they never
Speaker 1: got into the details why because we don't have any
Speaker 1: We don't know you can talk about the guy who
Speaker 1: can chemical spray and an officer because you understand what
Speaker 1: the charges, the underlying charge that they're alleging. They didn't
Speaker 1: even they didn't for a moment even explain or attempt
Speaker 1: to explain all that that, you know, the pardons of
Speaker 1: his family, of the J six committee of doctor Fauci like,
Speaker 1: they never got into it. They had no intellectual curiosity
Speaker 1: as to why that would be there. So I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: I don't wake up this morning and think that there
Speaker 1: was any improvement if you average out the totality of
Speaker 1: the media. They hated yesterday more than those lunatics screaming
Speaker 1: on the mountain out in San Francisco, which is a
Speaker 1: thing that happened, which is a meme. A bunch of
Speaker 1: moonbats went on top of a hill in San Francisco
Speaker 1: to skyscream at the exact moment Trump's getting you know, rated,
Speaker 1: basically a chorus of that weirdo and the lady in
Speaker 1: the green jacket from the first time around. Hey, and
Speaker 1: they can count good good on them my new alarm clock.
Speaker 1: And and in a way that that I know it's
Speaker 1: sounds like a horrible sound you just heard it for
Speaker 1: it's a it's a little bit of music to my ears, right,
Speaker 1: that's a happy sound one more time because the the
Speaker 1: very non Christian part of me, I guess I I
Speaker 1: I good good because of what it represents. So look,
Speaker 1: we got we got a crap ton to get into.
Speaker 1: Ross has cut so much audio today, so from obviously
Speaker 1: all this stuff off the Trump was doing, and and
Speaker 1: and you know, just the lunatics surrounding it. CBS Gail
Speaker 1: King just can't help herself, just can't help herself. I'll
Speaker 1: show you what we mean there. We got to go
Speaker 1: back to something that kind of got buried into the
Speaker 1: news cycle over the weekend, which is an interview that
Speaker 1: the Speaker of the House was doing, which frankly, I
Speaker 1: feel like is a legitimate conversation surrounding Biden's pardons. And
Speaker 1: I hope it's a I hope it's a thread that
Speaker 1: the Trump administration pulls on, even though I know they
Speaker 1: got a thousand things that they say they're working on,
Speaker 1: I think it might be one of the more important ones.
Speaker 1: And I think they recognize that. And uh yeah, how
Speaker 1: everyone's a Nazi again. So I don't know if anyone's
Speaker 1: learned anything. Did you have a favorite part of the
Speaker 1: day did you have did you have a part of
Speaker 1: the day where you're just like, ah, man, that's what
Speaker 1: I got up for today. Ros's favorite part of the
Speaker 1: day or just all of the freedom that keeps you warm.
Speaker 1: If you had to pick one, it.
Speaker 2: Is it's like choosing Godfather one or two, like which one?
Speaker 1: Like I'd dip? You know, it's the mood you're in.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know, because every time I
Speaker 1: think i'd have one, I'd be like, oh, man, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna open the show with that tomorrow, and something else
Speaker 1: that happened. You're like, na, I'm gonna open the show
Speaker 1: with that tomorrow. That's gonna be amazing. Because you had
Speaker 1: three different flavors to choose from four kind of you
Speaker 1: had the speech. You know, they're the inauguration and everything
Speaker 1: going on there, and then that speech, and then you
Speaker 1: had the overflow room right or he pops over into
Speaker 1: there in Emancipation Hall. Then of course you have a
Speaker 1: Capital one arena, and then you have just all the ansler,
Speaker 1: you know, the stuff surrounding it. And from a Trump perspective,
Speaker 1: like or then the Oval office is in the antler there.
Speaker 1: They were all different vibes man, and Trump kind of
Speaker 1: even acknowledged that. He's like, ah, yeah, I didn't almost
Speaker 1: just said it here, but I wasn't gonna say it there.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie. Like when they first started the
Speaker 2: broadcast and it was sort of like, you know, in
Speaker 2: the chamber or whatever. I was like, this is boring.
Speaker 2: They say, this is I'm bored by this and then yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: and then once he started speaking, it was fine.
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, We're going to try to dive through all
Speaker 1: of it. The phone number is eight eight eight nine
Speaker 1: three four seven eight seven for you and you you
Speaker 1: got a favorite moment, a little anything, little takeaway by
Speaker 1: all means, fall into the show today and uh, we'll
Speaker 1: we'll we'll have that conversation. So let's do this. We'll
Speaker 1: ready ourselves to start breaking this thing down. We'll do it.
Speaker 1: We return on the CaCO Day radio program. It is Tuesday. Obviously,
Speaker 1: yesterday was Inauguration Day or the fifth Reich. I don't
Speaker 1: even I don't even know what they're up to from
Speaker 1: an accusational standpoint.
Speaker 3: But.
Speaker 1: It was a day, man. It was uh, a lot
Speaker 1: going on. And it started obviously there in the uh
Speaker 1: what what normally would have been the steps of the Capitol,
Speaker 1: but in the Capitol rotunda there down to Emancipatient Hall
Speaker 1: for a secondary speech, over to Capital One for like
Speaker 1: an indoor parade thing. Uh the British showed up again.
Speaker 1: I did, I did. I didn't pick up on what
Speaker 1: that was. I just having a glance at as I
Speaker 1: was looking at some other stuff. And uh eventually to
Speaker 1: the Oval office where uh trug probably a little writer's
Speaker 1: cramp he was. He was busy signing stuff and John
Speaker 1: with the meet. You know how refreshing it was for
Speaker 1: the and and I truly mean this from a nonpartisan standpoint.
Speaker 1: I didn't realize how much I missed. Reporters ask even
Speaker 1: dumb questions, even gotcha questions, even questions where the question
Speaker 1: itself has inaccurate or deliberately false information in it because
Speaker 1: they think they're clever, and then the commander in chief
Speaker 1: being able to answer the question and the audio to
Speaker 1: be accessible because there weren't ten aides who have been
Speaker 1: instructed to scream like hyenas to ensure that the media
Speaker 1: doesn't pick up anything because they're essentially covering for a
Speaker 1: mental patient or in the case of Joe Biden's, somebody
Speaker 1: who may medically be incapacitated, like it's been four years.
Speaker 1: That's why over the last four years it was a
Speaker 1: thing when they actually accidentally let him answer something in
Speaker 1: half the time. It was a disaster. Trump's doing the
Speaker 1: Trump's sitting there in the in the thing when he
Speaker 1: turned to when he turned to, uh, oh, do we
Speaker 1: have the We don't have that part in here, do
Speaker 1: we where he turned to his chief of staff over
Speaker 1: the drones. It's okay, I'm just gonna say it real quick.
Speaker 1: All right, we got a crap ton of audio. I
Speaker 1: forgot to ask Ross for that specifically, but that's I
Speaker 1: can tell you, and many of you saw it. He's
Speaker 1: literally asked. Somebody just yells at hey, what about the drones?
Speaker 1: And he's just sitting there at the resolute, like, oh hey,
Speaker 1: uh and yeah. He turns his chief of staff, He's like, hey, uh,
Speaker 1: go ask what up the drones? Yeah no, no, no, no, yeah,
Speaker 1: go go ask. That's crazy, man. I like the answer
Speaker 1: to tell me what's going on. And it was just
Speaker 1: it was just so remarkably different, so remarkably different. Barack
Speaker 1: Obama used to take questions off the cuff. Again. What
Speaker 1: you're looking for is you're looking for a return. As
Speaker 1: much as they say Trump is outside of the norm,
Speaker 1: he's not outside of what we just witnessed for four years.
Speaker 1: That was Looney Tunes and with the uh, with what
Speaker 1: Mike Johnson said, I'm gonna play this for you first.
Speaker 1: This is gonna be our kickoff point, and then we're
Speaker 1: gonna get into what happened yesterday, because I think it
Speaker 1: absolutely has to factor into all the things we witnessed yesterday.
Speaker 1: So Mike Johnson's doing an interview and he casually says this,
Speaker 1: and by the way, it's I'm mad at Mike Johnson
Speaker 1: as well over this, right. I don't understand why he
Speaker 1: said it. It makes him look horrible. Here we go.
Speaker 4: Reaches over just like this. We're sitting in the right
Speaker 4: next to the fireplace in the Oval and he grabsma
Speaker 4: arm and he says, the speaker and I just need
Speaker 4: a couple of minutes together. Would y'all just leave us alone?
Speaker 4: And I looked up on the faces of some of
Speaker 4: the staff stand around the wall, and they're like, no,
Speaker 4: he did it, so he called it. He's the commander
Speaker 4: in chiefs everybody leaves. He and I are standing awkwardly
Speaker 4: in the middle of the Oval office, right over the
Speaker 4: rugged by that coffee table, and I said, miss President,
Speaker 4: thanks for the moments. You know, this is very important.
Speaker 4: I got some big national security things I needed to
Speaker 4: talk to you about that I've heard and I think
Speaker 4: you know and what do we do? But first, real quickly,
Speaker 4: miss President, can I ask you a question I cannot
Speaker 4: answer this from my constituents in Louisiana.
Speaker 3: Sir?
Speaker 4: Why did you pause LNG exports to Europe? Like I
Speaker 4: don't understand. You know, liquified natural gas is in great
Speaker 4: demand by our allies. Why would you do that? Because
Speaker 4: you understand we just talked about Ukraine. You understand your
Speaker 4: fuel in Vladimir Putin's war machine because they got to
Speaker 4: get their gas from him.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 4: And he looks at me, stunned with this, and he
Speaker 4: said I didn't. I didn't do that. And I said,
Speaker 4: Miss President, you, yes, you did. It was an executive
Speaker 4: order like you know, three weeks ago, and he does, no,
Speaker 4: I didn't do that, and he's arguing with me. I said,
Speaker 4: Miss President, respectfully, can I could I go out here
Speaker 4: and ask your secretary to print it out. We'll read
Speaker 4: it together. You definitely did that, and he goes, oh,
Speaker 4: you talk about natural gas? Yes, sir? He said no, no,
Speaker 4: did you misunderstand?
Speaker 3: He said?
Speaker 4: What I did is I signed this thing to we're
Speaker 4: gonna We're gonna conduct a study on the effects of LERG.
Speaker 4: I said, no, you're not, sir, You paused it. I
Speaker 4: know I have the terminal, the export terminals in my state.
Speaker 4: I've talked to those people this morning. This is doing
Speaker 4: massive damage to our economy, national security. It occurred to me, Barry,
Speaker 4: he was not lying to me. He genuinely did not
Speaker 4: know what he had signed. And I walked out of
Speaker 4: that meeting with fear and loathing because I thought, we're
Speaker 4: in serious trouble. Who is running the country, Like, I
Speaker 4: don't know who put the paper in front of him,
Speaker 4: but he didn't know.
Speaker 1: How did Mike Johnson not walk out in front of
Speaker 1: the White House, get clear of the gate and have
Speaker 1: a press conference. This came as dropped on Friday, And
Speaker 1: even if none of the inauguration stuff happened, this is
Speaker 1: a big enough story. It should be a big enough story.
Speaker 1: And I think maybe it's going to come back around
Speaker 1: that I would. I looked at and I'm like, all right,
Speaker 1: Monday's Monday Show's done. Coupled with you know, whatever is
Speaker 1: going to happen over the weekend, it's done. The Speaker
Speaker 1: of the House had a meeting with the president. Believes
Speaker 1: in his core that in the meeting Joe Biden had
Speaker 1: no idea what was in an executive order that he
Speaker 1: put his signature on pausing because it doesn't make sense
Speaker 1: pausing liquid natural gas exports only, as Johnson pointed out,
Speaker 1: there it helps Russia in this case, I don't think
Speaker 1: that's what it was about. It clearly was the environmental
Speaker 1: wackos in there going, haha, this is what we'll do.
Speaker 1: Whether it was just to punish Louisiana and or Texas,
Speaker 1: which has you know out of Houston there they ship
Speaker 1: a lot of energy as well obviously, or it was
Speaker 1: just their way of, you know, starting the Green New Deal.
Speaker 1: If you put that there and the President had no
Speaker 1: idea what he was signing, one of two things happened.
Speaker 1: One you explained it to him and he just forgot
Speaker 1: because you know everything with him, Or you didn't and
Speaker 1: you wanted something and you utilized your access to the
Speaker 1: President of the United States to trick him into doing
Speaker 1: something that had a significant financial impact. It was it
Speaker 1: killed people. You did something that you wanted and you
Speaker 1: tricked him into participating, and people died the way that
Speaker 1: they died is because European countries still had to give
Speaker 1: money to Russia. If they gave money to Russia, since
Speaker 1: he's funneling that money into the war in Ukraine. You
Speaker 1: gave him more weapons, munitions, troops, you know where they
Speaker 1: go out and hire some You did that. How is
Speaker 1: that not treasonous.
Speaker 2: You would see this repeatedly the past four years, where
Speaker 2: there would be some sort of moon back policy, right,
Speaker 2: some he left his policy and then they'd have him alone.
Speaker 2: In one of the rare occasions, he actually was in
Speaker 2: front of the press and they would shout out to
Speaker 2: him about this policy and he would say the opposite.
Speaker 2: It happened over and over again, and you'd be thinking, well,
Speaker 2: maybe he doesn't know what he was signing.
Speaker 1: Or or or I think a lot of people go
Speaker 1: he's being dishonest, because that's how you in normal times,
Speaker 1: if somebody did that, you just think, like, I guess
Speaker 1: it's a lion piece of garbage. He doesn't want to
Speaker 1: answer questions. This is different.
Speaker 2: There's two conclusions there, right, yeah, Like either he's lying
Speaker 2: and he's just being a politician, or or he signed
Speaker 2: something and he doesn't know what he's signed because he
Speaker 2: has moonbats who are trying to push their own agenda forward.
Speaker 1: What and and and then it begs the question if
Speaker 1: if you're nana, if you're I'm not picking anybody's nana
Speaker 1: in particular, but my grandmother had all time, you know,
Speaker 1: she the power of attorney was the first thing to
Speaker 1: go for good reason. What is okay? All right this,
Speaker 1: we're not doing this. We're not doing this. If you
Speaker 1: somebody's mad ross because I called Biden the president and
Speaker 1: not the former president. It's five minutes in. And technically
Speaker 1: remember when they called Trump president Trump and they got
Speaker 1: all mad. You told him to shut up? Join the
Speaker 1: club anyway? Yes, yeah, people pushing their agenda through there.
Speaker 1: People literally dying as a result. And if if he
Speaker 1: was tricked, that's a crime. If he didn't know and
Speaker 1: he had. Look, if you're signing these executive orders are
Speaker 1: not lengthy. They're really short. This is not an omnibus
Speaker 1: bill because they want that photo here. It is really short,
Speaker 1: just my giant's signature. You saw Trump do it because
Speaker 1: he likes to spin it around and show everybody. This
Speaker 1: isn't complex. And the order that they're talking about that
Speaker 1: did the LNG thing is one page so if if
Speaker 1: he doesn't have the capacity to do that, and it's
Speaker 1: looking more and more like that, how are those pardons legal?
Speaker 1: You can't you can't sign a documented that you don't
Speaker 1: understand because you are dealing with the you know, medical
Speaker 1: issues and your mental you know, your your your acuity
Speaker 1: and your your your ability to reason and understand things
Speaker 1: like we wouldn't let you sign up for a cell
Speaker 1: phone plan and hold you to it legally. How is
Speaker 1: anything that that man has signed and then pick whatever
Speaker 1: the window is, how is it legal? And that's just
Speaker 1: problem one with the pardons and the last minute of
Speaker 1: stuff he was doing. Problem number two is if you
Speaker 1: can't speak to what you're being pardoned, is that legal?
Speaker 1: And and frankly, there's a lot of there's a lot
Speaker 1: of legal minds, not even one who I consider particularly partisan,
Speaker 1: who don't have a definitive answer on this. So if
Speaker 1: you know, and the Justice Department of their Biden like
Speaker 1: people will keep pointing this out said that, and a
Speaker 1: pardon is an admission of guilt, and that part of
Speaker 1: accepting it means you have to acquiesce to what it
Speaker 1: is you're being accused of. Now, I don't strictly necessarily
Speaker 1: agree with that for the same reason that we pardon
Speaker 1: people who we have pardoned people who are or on
Speaker 1: death row where they found evidence that they didn't do it,
Speaker 1: or not even just death row. This is I mean,
Speaker 1: what is that person admitting to if in fact this
Speaker 1: is the case. So I don't know that that's one
Speaker 1: hundred percent, but at the very least we know what
Speaker 1: they were accused of. We can speak to the underlying crime.
Speaker 1: We don't know any of that with the bidens know
Speaker 1: if Fauci's uh, if Fauci's pardoner is retroactive to twenty fourteen,
Speaker 1: what are we doing? I can't see the name online
Speaker 1: one ross It is okay, all right, I bet this
Speaker 1: guy's got a few things to say. Let's let's uh,
Speaker 1: let's grab Jamal here. What's up? Jamal?
Speaker 3: You know what case Mike Johnson that really changed me
Speaker 3: a lot of opinion on me when it comes to him,
Speaker 3: because if he would have went out there and did
Speaker 3: and like what you said, went out there in front
Speaker 3: of the camera and said that a lot of stuff
Speaker 3: would have been changed. And now what do we do?
Speaker 3: Can't we launch an investigation? But yeah, I was in Washington.
Speaker 3: I was in Washington, DC yesterday, case and Sunday because
Speaker 3: we thought they were you know, maybe they still have
Speaker 3: some like a parade, because you know, we thought, you know,
Speaker 3: we heard that the trash truck was coming. Everything was
Speaker 3: in and on my everything. So my daughters and myself
Speaker 3: we walking around DC and the snow was me and
Speaker 3: my daughter's daughter daddy trip. Yes, we couldn't get inside.
Speaker 3: Was freezing. So then we tried to come back up
Speaker 3: there when it was no snowing. It was frozen tund
Speaker 3: Let me say that's KC because you've been to DC
Speaker 3: and you can tell people. Everybody got these black SUV's
Speaker 3: around Washington, d C. And they drive crazy. There were
Speaker 3: people in Washington, d C. Drive like they ain't got
Speaker 3: no sense with them black SUV's. I'm like, run in
Speaker 3: the world. But the pardon of the J sixers, you know.
Speaker 3: The next day I called in to UKC and I
Speaker 3: said I was there. I did not go into the building.
Speaker 3: I literally saw the officer open up the door and
Speaker 3: let people in, and I didn't go inside real because you,
Speaker 3: like Jamal, I hope you didn't remember you said that
Speaker 3: to me on air.
Speaker 1: I'm sudden.
Speaker 3: Well, here's my thing about the J six parties that
Speaker 3: a lot of people don't know there were black people
Speaker 3: up there. There were black people that wanted side that
Speaker 3: we didn't get charged because we were black, because they
Speaker 3: wanted the narrative of that was all white people, white
Speaker 3: Trump supporters that were black Latino ages. There was a
Speaker 3: bunch of people that was up there the area where
Speaker 3: people were getting charged. If Joe Biden would have won,
Speaker 3: he would have started arresting the minorities that was up
Speaker 3: there to keep open the lie that it was all
Speaker 3: white supremacy. So one, I was so glad when he
Speaker 3: did pardon everybody because people should not have been And
Speaker 3: after watching Joe Biden pardon his whole family, I'm sorry
Speaker 3: if anybody allow a Democrat to questioned them about why
Speaker 3: Joe Biden, excuse me, why President Trump partnered Jay six's
Speaker 3: If you are Republicans and you allowed the nut jobs
Speaker 3: to sit there and say, well, why do you partner
Speaker 3: people from the Jay six number one? The people from
Speaker 3: the Black Lives Out of twenty twenty burned down everything,
Speaker 3: they didn't get it, and they got pardoned the number one,
Speaker 3: they took over the building, and on why or it
Speaker 3: was the organ Federal courthouse.
Speaker 1: Well they didn't get they No, they didn't get pardoned.
Speaker 1: Biden didn't pardon them. They just didn't charge you. They
Speaker 1: didn't charge any of them. When they charged the guy
Speaker 1: with they charged a guy with the hammer who came
Speaker 1: there's a I can't remember that dude's name. He came out.
Speaker 1: He whacked the police officer with the hammer through the door.
Speaker 1: They threw the book at that guy. But other than that,
Speaker 1: they just didn't charge people. Uh that were like the
Speaker 1: organizers in Portland. They didn't charge the organizers of Chaz
Speaker 1: Chop in Seattle. I mean, they didn't do any of that. Yes,
Speaker 1: people did die in in there. Remember they wouldn't let
Speaker 1: the ambulance in too literally save their own. Comrade is insane.
Speaker 3: And they backed and kids would It was so funny.
Speaker 3: It was too black men that was shot and killed
Speaker 3: by two.
Speaker 1: White yep and uh and then and then the guy
Speaker 1: the guy who killed the dude in Portland that the
Speaker 1: the moonbat who killed one of the I don't know
Speaker 1: if it was a proud boy killed or whatever. That
Speaker 1: guy got charged, but other and that they where there
Speaker 1: were people that were charged. It was more often than not,
Speaker 1: they simply weren't. And uh yeah, let me ask you,
Speaker 1: let me ask you this from all just because I
Speaker 1: gotta get into a break for a last segment anything.
Speaker 1: So what were you actually able to gain access or do?
Speaker 1: Did you go to Capitol one? Did you? You guys
Speaker 1: just kind of Capital one.
Speaker 3: We went to Capitol one and it was so packed.
Speaker 3: There was people still trying to get in. And of
Speaker 3: course they were you know, they were standard. They didn't
Speaker 3: have a jumbo Trump with people out there to be
Speaker 3: able to watch it and see. So me and my
Speaker 3: daughters we just turned walked back. A couple walked back
Speaker 3: the blocks and got back in a vehicle. But it
Speaker 3: felt like yesterday case like DC Mayor and the DC
Speaker 3: police was purposely trying to make it horrible. It's like
Speaker 3: they didn't update mats and stuff to tell people's streets
Speaker 3: was blocked off so soon. Because you've been in DC before,
Speaker 3: because you've done Lson, Yeah, the street the police literally
Speaker 3: the police blocked off of car and told people to
Speaker 3: go awhile And while people literally go down the street.
Speaker 1: You it's it's and and here's the thing, I do
Speaker 1: give them some deference because you have you have to
Speaker 1: move people. And the grid system in d C is
Speaker 1: just not it's not a good system in our modern
Speaker 1: age because it's it's well, I don't describe it. You
Speaker 1: have to be in DC to realize how because you
Speaker 1: have to shut down more intersections because they're not they're
Speaker 1: not straight at an angle. You have to shut down
Speaker 1: like a third more inter somebody explained it to me
Speaker 1: one time, But that's d C. I mean, it is
Speaker 1: what it is, and thank you for the call there,
Speaker 1: jamal Uh. I'll tell you I'm more upset with as
Speaker 1: I'm upset with the complete and outright refusal of the
Speaker 1: folks at many federal prisons to honor what is an
Speaker 1: immediate thing, saying that it was a holiday and we
Speaker 1: didn't have staff to process the paperwork. You because you
Speaker 1: don't have somebody to do the paperwork in this extraordinary
Speaker 1: situation doesn't mean you get to deprive somebody of their liberty.
Speaker 1: This isn't a normal release thing where it goes through there.
Speaker 1: And I don't want to be super critical because I
Speaker 1: it's above the pay grade of most of the people
Speaker 1: that are working in these federal institutions. Shame on what
Speaker 1: appeared to be in some instance people wanting to get
Speaker 1: theirs they didn't like it. There's accusations that there were
Speaker 1: some some of those folks who were physically harmed yesterday,
Speaker 1: including one of those prisoners who left on a stretcher.
Speaker 1: Now I don't know if a guard did it, as
Speaker 1: some people are accusing. I think you should be careful
Speaker 1: with that, but at the very least, maybe maybe an angry, upset,
Speaker 1: jealous inmate did it. And if that's the situation where
Speaker 1: somebody's mad because this guy just got a pardon and
Speaker 1: he didn't because you know he didn't have a political
Speaker 1: crime or wasn't involved in this, then you but think
Speaker 1: you'd want to get him out of the population faster.
Speaker 1: So that was that was. Look, there's a lot going on.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of really really heavy emotions, and understandably so,
Speaker 1: but it's gonna be really important because Trump chose fire hose. Okay, Trump,
Speaker 1: Trump sat there and said, we're gonna do like two
Speaker 1: hundred these. He chose fire hose, and he chose fire
Speaker 1: hose because last time around, a bunch of interlopers and plants,
Speaker 1: in my opinion, told him you got to have a
Speaker 1: measured hand. You got to do this slowly because they
Speaker 1: just wanted to time him out so he couldn't upset
Speaker 1: the Apple card as much. And the media has already
Speaker 1: picked up the propaganda. I'm driving in this morning, Ross,
Speaker 1: did you listen to America's first morning News. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be critical of the of the report that was done
Speaker 1: this morning on our station, So mark me down for Trader.
Speaker 1: The segment they did with the USA to Day Reporter
Speaker 1: and the name escapes me. I happen to CA this morning.
Speaker 1: I was putting stuff together where they were talking about
Speaker 1: the order for the DC workers and rather than discussing
Speaker 1: it in its totality, they were they had they found
Speaker 1: the craziest example of this one couple where the woman's
Speaker 1: got like nine diseases that I've never heard of, and
Speaker 1: are some of those that it's really hard to prove.
Speaker 1: That's the thing you have, you know, And and they've
Speaker 1: moved to like Texas to live with their parents, and
Speaker 1: he's he's injured two and everyone has all this stuff
Speaker 1: and it's it's the only way and by the way,
Speaker 1: she's making a DC salary, but she's living in Texas
Speaker 1: and and it's like that's that's an insane example on
Speaker 1: this issue, rather than pointing out that it's it's not
Speaker 1: most situations are not like that.
Speaker 2: And and so I heard that this morning. In my
Speaker 2: initial reaction was the press is back to their old
Speaker 2: bs y apps.
Speaker 1: One thousand percent USA today is so bad. And I'm
Speaker 1: really I'm really sad that that the host this morning
Speaker 1: didn't push back on that, going, look, come on, not
Speaker 1: everybody has loop of blue. But you know, whatever the
Speaker 1: whatever the disease is.
Speaker 2: You know they did that. They're in COVID where they
Speaker 2: would find like the craziest outlier and be like, look
Speaker 2: at this, this is why you need to put your
Speaker 2: children in like a in like a bubble.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's you know, it.
Speaker 2: Would be some awful story. You'd be like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: that poor family, that poor kid. But it'd be absolutely
Speaker 2: the outlier.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, So if so, we're gonna do this all again.
Speaker 1: We're gonna do this all again, all right, eight eight
Speaker 1: eight nine three four seven eight seven four. Now what
Speaker 1: did Trump actually say? Well, we're gonna dive headlong into
Speaker 1: this and I'm gonna I'm gonna tell you it's gonna
Speaker 1: take a while lots to get to coming up case
Speaker 1: O Day radio program. Yesterday there was some stuff and
Speaker 1: some people did some things, and everything was insane, and
Speaker 1: I realized not everybody the opportunity to have the day
Speaker 1: to really just focus just on that, even though it
Speaker 1: was MLK Day, a lot of people off work, not everybody,
Speaker 1: not everybody, And so we're gonna we'll dive into I
Speaker 1: guess maybe some of the moments you might have missed
Speaker 1: because we got a bunch of audio for you. I
Speaker 1: gonna throw the phone number out as we get going.
Speaker 1: So if at any point you want to opine on anything,
Speaker 1: any really anything from yesterday inauguration wise, well we can
Speaker 1: talk to Ohio State game too, I guess if you want.
Speaker 1: But that wasn't much of a game. It's amazing what
Speaker 1: twenty million dollars in nil money will do for you.
Speaker 1: Doesn't it hack necessarily on Ohio State because they're playing
Speaker 1: within what are the rules right now? But they're I
Speaker 1: don't know, man, I have a lot of I'm concerned.
Speaker 1: I'm concerned about college athletics, but I don't know what
Speaker 1: the answer is. Because I agree that the university, the
Speaker 1: idea that the universities can make tens of millions of
Speaker 1: dollars off an individual student athlete in exchange for you know,
Speaker 1: free tuition. I don't know that that system works anymore. So,
Speaker 1: you know, basically any anything up there or any of
Speaker 1: the other stories I mentioned, Well, you got a wide
Speaker 1: birth today because there's just so much that went down.
Speaker 1: So eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four,
Speaker 1: I'll get you on the show. All right, let's let's uh,
Speaker 1: let's go ahead and get into this, shall we. Since
Speaker 1: Ross has been there all night cutting audio, it looks
Speaker 1: like what times you get in this morning? I didn't
Speaker 1: even ask. I'm in Greensboro. Ross is in Raleigh. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he'd been here a while. We got a whole page.
Speaker 1: All right, let's start here. What was especially delicious was
Speaker 1: watching Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris o'biden, and a host of
Speaker 1: others flanked by the cleavage of Jeff Bezos's girlfriend. Which
Speaker 1: there's some folks, there's some folks that took notice of that.
Speaker 1: About a trillion dollars worth of folks happened to see that. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they had to sit there and take it. They had
Speaker 1: to sit there and listen to It wasn't even a
Speaker 1: long speech. It was what just under thirty minutes the
Speaker 1: actual inauguration speech there in the Capitol rotunda. They had
Speaker 1: to sit there and take it. And it was watching
Speaker 1: their faces, watching Hillary laugh with the gulf of America's stuff,
Speaker 1: knowing that she'll never be president, and her husband's probably
Speaker 1: staring at Jeff Bezos's girlfriend's lingerie cleavage, which were out.
Speaker 1: What was even crazier is when they got done and
Speaker 1: she like comes the front and she's right in front
Speaker 1: of the camera right there. Oh, and I don't care
Speaker 1: how you know. Guys are guys. So that was the
Speaker 1: whole thing. But in light in spite of all of that,
Speaker 1: which might have been the big takeaway in a normal year,
Speaker 1: it wasn't. Because Trump roasted them in his speech and
Speaker 1: they had to sit there and take it. And I
Speaker 1: don't know why, but I loved it.
Speaker 5: Let's golden age of America begins right now. From this
Speaker 5: day forward, our country will flourish and be respected again
Speaker 5: all over the world. We will be the envy of
Speaker 5: every nation, and we will not allow ourselves to be
Speaker 5: taken advantage of any longer. During every single day of
Speaker 5: the Trump administration, I will very simply put America first.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I mean really his whole messaging and
Speaker 1: not just this time around. It for a long time,
Speaker 1: so that wasn't surprising. But quickly, quickly the accusations and
Speaker 1: rightfully so started flying.
Speaker 5: Sovereignty will be reclaimed, our safety will be restored, the
Speaker 5: scales of justice will be rebalanced. The vicious, violent, and
Speaker 5: unfair weaponization of the Justice Department and our government will.
Speaker 1: End all right, So yeah, this is this is not
Speaker 1: anything unusual. What are you talking about, Casey? Where's the roasting?
Speaker 1: Let's start with Biden? Shall we we gather? Today?
Speaker 5: Our government confronts a crisis of trust. For many years,
Speaker 5: a radical and corrupt establishment has extracted power and wealth
Speaker 5: from our citizens, while the pillars of our society lay
Speaker 5: broken and seemingly incomplete disrepair. We now have a government
Speaker 5: that cannot manage even a simple crisis at home, while
Speaker 5: at the same time stumbling into a continuing catalog of
Speaker 5: catastrophic events abroad. It fails to protect our magnificent, law
Speaker 5: abiding American citizens, but provide sanctuary and protection for dangerous criminals,
Speaker 5: many from prisons and mental institutions that have illegally entered
Speaker 5: our country from all over the world. We have a
Speaker 5: government that has given unlimited funding to the defense of
Speaker 5: foreign borders but refuses to defend American borders or more importantly,
Speaker 5: its own people.
Speaker 1: And we're going to talk about the borders. I want
Speaker 1: to get through this, because that was really that was
Speaker 1: one of the first things the media kicked into yesterday
Speaker 1: showing these videos of people who are in Mexico there
Speaker 1: on the other side of the border, all holding their
Speaker 1: phones looking at their CBP one apps where they just
Speaker 1: turned it off, because that was a thing that Joe
Speaker 1: Biden just made up. Right, if you want to claim asylum,
Speaker 1: you go to a port of entry, and that's how
Speaker 1: you do it, and they just cut it off. And
Speaker 1: keep in mind that Trump had even entertained expanding it
Speaker 1: when he said that they should be able to do
Speaker 1: it in their country of residents by going to the
Speaker 1: various the US embassies there, which, by the way, is
Speaker 1: how visas are acquired currently for countries that require visa.
Speaker 1: So if you live in Guatemala or Honduras, or Nicaragua
Speaker 1: or Venezuela for that matter, or whatever, if you want
Speaker 1: to come to the US, you got to get you
Speaker 1: have to go, and you have to get a visa.
Speaker 1: And I've talked to friends, you know, people I know
Speaker 1: from travels and and UH and and various other places
Speaker 1: that work on the US side but have worked in
Speaker 1: you know, within the State department, right and and they
Speaker 1: have a process for this, and so Trump was going
Speaker 1: to be willing to avail them of that. Biden created
Speaker 1: this thing where they pop up to the border there
Speaker 1: and we let them in because they have an appointment,
Speaker 1: and then we release them into the country. So when
Speaker 1: the media tries to compare the two, understand the big
Speaker 1: difference there and and that's where they decided to go.
Speaker 1: They show that can you believe that the heartbreak that
Speaker 1: that Trump is rought And it's here's the thing, It's
Speaker 1: perfectly reasonable. And I know some of you are going
Speaker 1: to disagree with me, but I promise you I have
Speaker 1: more insight on this than most people due to the
Speaker 1: amount of travels and various folks that I know, UH
Speaker 1: that are really up in this process. The remember I
Speaker 1: told you that when I was in when I was
Speaker 1: in Panama is where the first time I heard this thing.
Speaker 1: They run radio ads talking about assistance like you know,
Speaker 1: like a like a lawyer is going to help you
Speaker 1: get money. They have printed flyers that they post line
Speaker 1: to people telling them hey, because with Joe Biden's picture
Speaker 1: on it, telling people, hey, Joe Biden's in there. All
Speaker 1: you have to do is show at the border, will
Speaker 1: let you in, and and and they were. They're telling people,
Speaker 1: many of which who are very uneducated, not savvy to
Speaker 1: what's going on, necessarily in the US because it's profitable.
Speaker 1: These are criminal organizations. But these are criminal organizations that
Speaker 1: were able to run this scam because the Biden administration
Speaker 1: created it. They didn't they weren't running it during Trump.
Speaker 1: That's why people stop showing up, because they realized they
Speaker 1: weren't going to get in, and that news permeated. So
Speaker 1: once it turned into what the Biden administration was doing,
Speaker 1: then criminal organizations were able to take money from people
Speaker 1: or services, many of which are illegal services drug smuggling.
Speaker 1: Will let you in, your family's already there. They have
Speaker 1: to pay us money, or you can go worth. You
Speaker 1: could go work as a prostitute until you've paid off
Speaker 1: your thing. But oh, by the way, there's interest. So
Speaker 1: it's a never ending cycle. And the violence and everything
Speaker 1: that came with it was a direct result of the
Speaker 1: opportunity created by the previous administration. So when I see
Speaker 1: those people weeping, I have an immense amount of sympathy
Speaker 1: for the situation they're now in. But I also recognize
Speaker 1: that we have to have an orderly process. You can't
Speaker 1: have a free for all because you see what happens.
Speaker 1: They had a border guard killed yesterday in Vermont. They
Speaker 1: murdered a border guard in Vermont, and what's going on
Speaker 1: obviously down on the southern border is unsustainable. So the
Speaker 1: media showing those videos going, look what Trump did. No,
Speaker 1: he didn't. The Biden administration did that, coupled with cartels,
Speaker 1: other just you know, shady characters and governments who wanted
Speaker 1: to purge themselves of what they saw as problematic citizens,
Speaker 1: basically people who weren't rich, who weren't educated, who weren't
Speaker 1: connected with power, and all of that. All of that
Speaker 1: was a result of what the previous administration did. So
Speaker 1: I wholesale rejected. But it wasn't all doom and gloom.
Speaker 1: I think Ross texted me right after this happened too.
Speaker 1: One of the first things Trump talked about is he
Speaker 1: was getting going and I it called me selfish, But
Speaker 1: this might have been my favorite part.
Speaker 5: Was this our country can no longer deliver basic services
Speaker 5: in times of emergency, as recently shown by the wonderful
Speaker 5: people of North Carolina have been treated so badly and
Speaker 5: other states who are still suffering from a hurricane that
Speaker 5: took place many months ago, or more recently Los Angeles
Speaker 5: where we were watching fires still tragically burned from weeks
Speaker 5: ago without even a token of defense. They're raging through
Speaker 5: the houses and communities, even affecting some of the wealthiest
Speaker 5: and most powerful individuals in our country, some of whom
Speaker 5: are sitting here right now. They don't have a home
Speaker 5: any longer.
Speaker 1: That's interesting, But we could do just not that one.
Speaker 5: Everyone is unable to do anything about it. That's going
Speaker 5: to change.
Speaker 1: And uh, I the guy that the guy by the way,
Speaker 1: who is now going to be taking over uh for
Speaker 1: for this Uh I don't know is he is not
Speaker 1: a FEMA director, right, he's the I do I have
Speaker 1: it here in front of me. I should have he
Speaker 1: has western North Carolina family ties. Well, I can find
Speaker 1: on my Twitter. I'll find it. We'll come back with
Speaker 1: it because I I want to name. I want to
Speaker 1: name that name just here all aware, And yeah, I
Speaker 1: think that makes people very hopeful. I think people look
Speaker 1: at that and they are like, finally, somebody's hearing me. Now.
Speaker 1: It has to be followed by action. It has to
Speaker 1: be followed by action and follow through and and did
Speaker 1: you the propane lines are still a thing. Crazy aerial
Speaker 1: photos people are up, you know, with drones up there
Speaker 1: over the sea of It looks like trying to get
Speaker 1: gas during the Carter administration. And those are folks that
Speaker 1: are not getting gas for their vehicles. They're getting the're
Speaker 1: trying to get pro pane because they're living in RVs
Speaker 1: still and it's cold. I'm in Greensboro this morning. I
Speaker 1: don't want to walk outside my hotel. I mean to
Speaker 1: see out the window on my office is gonna suck.
Speaker 1: And I was right got in the cart, you know,
Speaker 1: driving to the station. It's not a very long commute,
Speaker 1: not but it's it's just short enough where you can't
Speaker 1: even really get the vehicle heated up. I'm just grumbling
Speaker 1: on into the way, you know, into work this morning.
Speaker 1: Plus Ross and I slipped a pardon and when Biden
Speaker 1: was side of stuff there at the end and the
Speaker 1: pardon didn't hold up, we had to come to work.
Speaker 1: So well, apparently the dude who'd signed anything. All right,
Speaker 1: where is uh?
Speaker 3: All right?
Speaker 1: You know, I'll find the dang thing here. It's somewhere.
Speaker 1: But the fact remains is that might be the most
Speaker 1: hope full that many North Carolinians, especially in the western
Speaker 1: part of the state, have been in quite some time.
Speaker 1: Thank God. We'll we'll, we'll see how it all pans out.
Speaker 1: But I hope that there is some immediate action, especially
Speaker 1: and and and and not necessarily even to take away
Speaker 1: from California. I just want there to be adults in charge,
Speaker 1: and I want to know what that's going to look like.
Speaker 1: So we will, uh, we will figure it out. Here
Speaker 1: we go. Cameron Hamilton, former Navy seal Western North Carolina
Speaker 1: family homeschool for the kids. This is funny. He is
Speaker 1: the interim FEMA director. Okay, interim FEMA director. He also
Speaker 1: rescues donkeys. I hope he means real donkeys and not
Speaker 1: you know, Democrats, politicians, individuals on the ground, homeowners. I
Speaker 1: don't care what your political persuasion is. FEMA, if it's
Speaker 1: going to exist, need to do its damn job, not
Speaker 1: cut by you know. Oh, they got a yard sign
Speaker 1: for Trump not going to help them, So let's go.
Speaker 1: There's a lot and we're just through maybe a fourth
Speaker 1: of the audio. We got lots more to get to again.
Speaker 1: Eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four.
Speaker 5: The past eight years, I have been tested and challenged
Speaker 5: more than any president in our two hundred and fifty
Speaker 5: year history, and I've learned a lot along the way.
Speaker 5: The journey to reclaim our republic has not been an
Speaker 5: easy one, that I can tell you. Those who wish
Speaker 5: to stop our cause have tried to take my freedom,
Speaker 5: and indeed to take my life just a few months
Speaker 5: ago in a beautiful Pennsylvania field and assassin's bullet ripped
Speaker 5: through my ear. But I felt that and believe even
Speaker 5: more so now that my life was saved for a reason.
Speaker 5: I was saved by God to make America great again.
Speaker 1: And what he says next is also powerful. We'll get
Speaker 1: to it. Hang on, not. I did see that Aril
Speaker 1: decided they were gonna fact check. I'm not gonna that's
Speaker 1: as much energy as I'm gonna give it. I just
Speaker 1: I don't have the time, and I don't have the
Speaker 1: time this morning. I got so much more I gotta
Speaker 1: get to. So no, look, just to chalk him up
Speaker 1: to the rest of the media who did exactly what
Speaker 1: she thought they were gonna do. And it was so predictable,
Speaker 1: so predictable. As you know, with the Elon Musk thing.
Speaker 1: The moment I saw that, I'm like, that's the story.
Speaker 1: My heart goes out to you know why, because immediately
Speaker 1: Aaron Rupar, who is one of the biggest pieces of
Speaker 1: garbage in the media sphere, did what he normally does.
Speaker 1: He put the clip out. He cut off the part
Speaker 1: where Elon says the thing about my heart going out
Speaker 1: to you, and then just left the hand motion in
Speaker 1: there and we were off to the races. But no,
Speaker 1: we'll get to that or we're still on the actual inauguration.
Speaker 1: In the Capitol rotunda when last we left, the president
Speaker 1: he mentioned that, you know it talked about the shooting, which,
Speaker 1: by the way, is something that he doesn't really talk
Speaker 1: about that much. I know it feels like it because
Speaker 1: there's some some clips, some pretty powerful clips out there.
Speaker 1: But if you remember, especially in his latter rallies, he
Speaker 1: might have given it a mention. But even at the
Speaker 1: r n C he said, I'm gonna talk about this
Speaker 1: and then I'm not really going to get into it.
Speaker 1: You know a bunch and then subsequent interviews and whatnot.
Speaker 1: He really didn't get into it, but he opened up
Speaker 1: during his during his inaugural speech.
Speaker 5: Everything we do my administration will be in spe hired
Speaker 5: by a strong pursuit of excellence and unrelenting success. We
Speaker 5: will not forget our country, we will not forget our constitution,
Speaker 5: and we will not forget our God.
Speaker 1: Can't prove that. And this is, you know, after he
Speaker 1: believes that God saved him from that assassin's bullet, and
Speaker 1: a lot of people do not to mention everything else,
Speaker 1: think of the series of events that had to take
Speaker 1: place to come here. I tweeted this yesterday, the wholesale
Speaker 1: rejection of easily easily in my lifetime. And I'm not
Speaker 1: talking about over in some third world deskpot country where
Speaker 1: propaganda's the name of the game twenty four to seven.
Speaker 1: I mean within my own lived experience in the Western world,
Speaker 1: so not just the US, but Europe and many others.
Speaker 1: The the most aggressive propaganda operation I've ever seen in
Speaker 1: my life because it involved all of these government folks.
Speaker 1: Did you see did you say, oh, this brought me
Speaker 1: so much joy? Did you see that Trump immediately revoked
Speaker 1: security clearance for the fifty one intelligence folks who signed
Speaker 1: that fake no that oh no, no, it's this Russian disinformation,
Speaker 1: this laptop here gone, Your security clearance is gone. And
Speaker 1: for some of you, I'm looking at you, John Brennan
Speaker 1: and others, there probably needs to be more, as they
Speaker 1: were actively involved in things like the duplicitous use of
Speaker 1: a single source as a double source for the purpose
Speaker 1: of FAIZA warrants to spy on the Trump campaign at
Speaker 1: the time. John Brennan was was actively involved in that.
Speaker 1: So as much as people say, look, you gotta you
Speaker 1: gotta turn the page and you're not gonna be able
Speaker 1: to go after you, there have to be some select folks.
Speaker 1: And I see Brennan on that list. Didn't didn't see it,
Speaker 1: And well, I don't know that you're gonna be able
Speaker 1: to prosecute Joe Biden just due to the fact that
Speaker 1: I don't know how much longer he's going to be
Speaker 1: with us. It doesn't give me joy to say that.
Speaker 1: By the way, I've just I've watched family members who
Speaker 1: have had you know, have gone through Alzheimer's and various
Speaker 1: other things as their cognitive abilities declined, and at some
Speaker 1: point it gets very rapid, and it's and it's immensely sad.
Speaker 1: But the fact is is you there's so much and
Speaker 1: a Shenanigans isn't isn't a strong enough words. There's so
Speaker 1: much criminal stuff stuff, even if you don't know exactly
Speaker 1: what from a statutory standpoint why it would be criminal,
Speaker 1: it's just wrong. And that's what people were gauging upon.
Speaker 1: They were looking at the you know, once prosecuting the
Speaker 1: j sixers to the full succeent of the law many
Speaker 1: times for crimes that have normally in the past, including
Speaker 1: when interrupting the Kavanaugh hearing, have been simple simple parading
Speaker 1: charges and fifty dollars fines that you can pay on
Speaker 1: the spot, which is a process they implemented in DC
Speaker 1: years ago because of the propensity of protesters. And it's
Speaker 1: also why organizations would give the fifty dollars to the protesters,
Speaker 1: so it's in their pocket cash money before they went
Speaker 1: in and they did things like interrupt the Kavanaugh confirmation hearing,
Speaker 1: versus what they saw on the West Coast with everything
Speaker 1: in Portland and Seattle and other places across the country
Speaker 1: where they didn't do anything. People couldn't put their legal
Speaker 1: finger on it because they're not lawyers, but they knew
Speaker 1: it is wrong. Inherently they understand what's happening at the
Speaker 1: border is inherently wrong. The question will be, so, how
Speaker 1: does Trump respond? Does he does he overplay? Does a
Speaker 1: hell fire missile blow the head some cartel heads house
Speaker 1: to smitherings down in uh? I don't know? Well, haaka,
Speaker 1: what does that mean for US Mexico relations? And before
Speaker 1: you go, well, you can't do that. Well, Barack Obama
Speaker 1: went into Pakistan to go Greece bin Laden. Pakistani's were
Speaker 1: none too please, but nothing really came of it, because
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? And I don't know. I
Speaker 1: don't know what the answer is, but he talked about it.
Speaker 5: Declare a national emergency at our southern border.
Speaker 1: Seems pretty popular with the crowd, And granted it's his crowd.
Speaker 1: I think majority of Americans agree. Though.
Speaker 5: All illegal entry will immediately be halted, and we will
Speaker 5: begin the process of returning millions and millions of criminal
Speaker 5: aliens back to the places from which they came. We
Speaker 5: will reinstate my remain in Mexico policy. I will end
Speaker 5: the practice of catch and release, all practices.
Speaker 1: By the way, that have been adjudicated through courts order.
Speaker 5: To repel the disastrous invasion of our country. Under the
Speaker 5: orders I signed today, we will also be designating the
Speaker 5: cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.
Speaker 1: And this is where you get into a little there's
Speaker 1: a little sticky here, right, because if it's a terrorist
Speaker 1: organization and you can show complicity by the government I e.
Speaker 1: Iran funding Hezbolah and the WHO these and others, it
Speaker 1: changes the relationship there. So it incentivizes the country to
Speaker 1: not allow that to be an openly accepted fact that
Speaker 1: they either fund or or either fund or they they
Speaker 1: you know, they sit there and in some cases or
Speaker 1: at least taking bribes or looking the other way. Like
Speaker 1: now that stuff matters more. It matters. The corruption part
Speaker 1: matters more. And is it worth it? Is the juice
Speaker 1: worth the squeeze, which is something in mech in Venezuela
Speaker 1: and in other places They're gonna have to ask themselves.
Speaker 1: And I don't know what it looks like, but it's
Speaker 1: strikingly common sense. But let's also let's not kid ourselves.
Speaker 1: The cartels wouldn't be tripping over themselves to get drugs, sex,
Speaker 1: slaves and anything else into this country if there wasn't
Speaker 1: a demand for it. So it needs to be multi pronged. Sure,
Speaker 1: you can starve the beast, but if people really want it,
Speaker 1: eventually it will be it will be worth it financially,
Speaker 1: even if you're designated a criminal terrorist organization, and adults
Speaker 1: can have these conversations and evaluate these things and maybe
Speaker 1: get answers. So look, I said, we're drinking from a
Speaker 1: fire hose, and we are. We're halfway through the audio.
Speaker 1: We'll get to all of it, hopefully before the end
Speaker 1: of the show, but first somebody can explain to me
Speaker 1: when I'm getting in the car this morning, what are
Speaker 1: you doing?
Speaker 6: It's the polar vortex, right, I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't have room on my audio bar this morning.
Speaker 6: So much stuff from this I thought, for sure, is
Speaker 6: it the double polar vortex?
Speaker 1: Talking about last week?
Speaker 6: It's only one low. But you know what, Casey, and
Speaker 6: you're probably in with me on this listen. It's it's cold,
Speaker 6: all right. It's dangerously cold factor in the wind chill.
Speaker 6: It's single digits this morning. It's basically upper teens in
Speaker 6: low twenties. It's a single ditch out near the mountains.
Speaker 6: But for example, in Raleigh. The record's three below zero.
Speaker 1: I saw. I mean, I'm in Greensboro, Rocket I talk
Speaker 1: about Buddy and Sparta said it was freaking zero.
Speaker 6: Well maybe with a wind chill.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I haven't seen it.
Speaker 6: I haven't seen any official numbers at zero, but with
Speaker 6: it feels like ture the more important one. It may
Speaker 6: And it's gonna stay cold this morning. And now we've
Speaker 6: got just an hour or so ago. Got an update
Speaker 6: here for the Weather Service. They've put some counties around
Speaker 6: the triangle in the winter weather advisory now so Durham, No, Raleigh, Yes,
Speaker 6: Rocky Mount, Goldsboro, Sanford, Fayetteville, points east where you even
Speaker 6: get into winter storm warnings out near the outer banks
Speaker 6: where they're gonna get more snow, then they will further inland.
Speaker 6: Very unusual blizzard warnings for the first time in southwest Louisiana,
Speaker 6: northeast Texas. So that's first time ever. So cold day today,
Speaker 6: I think we struggle to get out of maybe even
Speaker 6: the upper twenties. It's gonna go thirty two and there
Speaker 6: could be some light snow or flares this afternoon. From
Speaker 6: about the triangle in east, it's basically US one where
Speaker 6: we're making the divide line, and that chance of snow
Speaker 6: later today into early tonight triangle if you do get it,
Speaker 6: and even if it coats, the ground isn't your less
Speaker 6: of accumulations expected. It's so cold that it's gonna slick
Speaker 6: and it's gonna get icy, so be careful this afternoon
Speaker 6: down to the upper teens.
Speaker 1: Tonight.
Speaker 6: The wind chills with the gusty breeze will be at
Speaker 6: about ten or single digits. Tomorrow year thirty two, with
Speaker 6: sunshine and a breeze mid teens Tomorrow night Thursday and
Speaker 6: near forty, and then Friday upper thirty to low forty.
Speaker 6: So later this afternoon into this evening, I think in
Speaker 6: terms of snow, it's going to be triangle and points
Speaker 6: east and south try it probably gonna be okay, same
Speaker 6: thing in the mountains.
Speaker 1: Okay. Yeah. When I was driving, I drove over from
Speaker 1: Raleigh really late on Sunday night because I wanted to
Speaker 1: kind of get ahead of potential story.
Speaker 3: I did.
Speaker 1: Both of my computers just shut off. What a day,
Speaker 1: all right, I'll fix that in a moment. I was
Speaker 1: driving over and for like the last ten miles, I
Speaker 1: would say from the eighty five split to Uh. This
Speaker 1: was a I didn't get over until like midnight. I
Speaker 1: just everything was going on. There was like ten miles
Speaker 1: where I'm looking at the road, I'm like, is that
Speaker 1: ice on the road? What has happened? And sure enough
Speaker 1: there was this these weird little patches. Man, I just
Speaker 1: slowed down. I'm glad I did, because when I got
Speaker 1: off the highway, I did the thing where I kind
Speaker 1: of tested it, and sure enough it was lick. So
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, if you see glistening roads and you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: it hasn't snowed, just think about it. Okay, yep, stay
Speaker 1: safe out there, all right, appreciate it, sir. We're talking
Speaker 1: an hour. I'm gonna go using our equipment here, so
Speaker 1: all right, well, well not my audio computer. That one's
Speaker 1: still good to go. So we'll return with more audio
Speaker 1: from DC yesterday next and somebody of us remoting in
Speaker 1: which I don't know who the heck knows what's going
Speaker 1: on there. Maybe it's engineering, but never fear. We got
Speaker 1: the audio. We're talking through this thing and we're still
Speaker 1: in the Capitol rotunda. But let me give you a
Speaker 1: little flavor of some of the analysis. If I could
Speaker 1: real quick before we get our last few Trump cuts
Speaker 1: from that. And when I say analysis, of course, I'm
Speaker 1: referring to like, I don't know, people like Gayo King
Speaker 1: from CBS, who's gazing out upon the crowds there to
Speaker 1: see Trump and watch the inauguration, and she notices some
Speaker 1: stuff because they can't help themselves and they haven't realized
Speaker 1: that the very for one of the very same reasons
Speaker 1: why they're having to cover a Trump inauguration is because
Speaker 1: they are absolutely obsessed with garbage like this.
Speaker 7: I have to say, I'm looking at this crowd, I
Speaker 7: do not see many people of color.
Speaker 4: Does anybody else besides me observed that? I'm fascinated by
Speaker 4: why that is?
Speaker 7: On Martin Luther King Junior day, the most notable and
Speaker 7: one of the most high ranking is Justice Katanji Brown Jackson,
Speaker 7: first black woman to serve on the US of their course,
Speaker 7: notably appointed by Joe Biden as he made wanted to
Speaker 7: follow in the footsteps of Jimmy Carter and appointing a
Speaker 7: number of women and black women to the federal judge ships.
Speaker 1: In general, which, by the way, that is an admission
Speaker 1: right there by CBS that there is a DEI component
Speaker 1: in the same way that Kamala was selected, because they
Speaker 1: openly stated these things and they would actively deny that
Speaker 1: as the chairman of the.
Speaker 4: Jey Chief Staff is probably there.
Speaker 1: In fact, that might be side of his head now
Speaker 1: because he's well, I can't tell them no unify, but
Speaker 1: he was there, doubtedly there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I saw Jim Clyburn.
Speaker 1: And this is why Gail King is so dishonest. Do
Speaker 1: you know, do you understand who is who actually could
Speaker 1: because it's limited seeding since they move this thing inside.
Speaker 1: The reason that you didn't see as many minorities, I
Speaker 1: guess as you wanted to, Gail King, is because you
Speaker 1: had a crap ton of members of Congress who themselves
Speaker 1: are minorities who chose not to attend that. Why is
Speaker 1: that Trump's fault?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 1: What why is that Trump's fault? And if you don't
Speaker 1: provide the context because you're looking out you're like, well,
Speaker 1: you know half of Congress is not there, and it's
Speaker 1: you know, it's the half that has a higher count
Speaker 1: of minorities. You have to include that and not it's
Speaker 1: just fly by it. It doesn't care. Screw context. Yeah, they're
Speaker 1: they're up to they're up to their old tricks man.
Speaker 1: So with that in mind, let's get to the stuff
Speaker 1: that really, really is going to make him angry.
Speaker 5: Stuff like this will reinstate any service members who were
Speaker 5: unjustly expelled from our military for objecting to the COVID
Speaker 5: vaccine mandate with full back pay.
Speaker 1: It's four years for some of them, eight thousand plus of.
Speaker 5: Them, and I will sign in order to stop our
Speaker 5: warriors from being subjected to radical political theories and social
Speaker 5: experiments while on duty. It's going to end immediately.
Speaker 1: And immediately the reaction was, well, where are they going
Speaker 1: to get the money for it? I don't know. Cancel
Speaker 1: one third of one of the payments of just in
Speaker 1: the last month to Ukraine and you'd still have money
Speaker 1: left over. The dishonesty is staggering. This though, this cut,
Speaker 1: this is just funny.
Speaker 5: Short time from now, we are going to be changing
Speaker 5: the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf
Speaker 5: of America.
Speaker 1: And then Hillary starts laughing back there, here's something else
Speaker 1: you need to know. Who considers themselves an American? Who
Speaker 1: do you think considers themselves an American? And if you
Speaker 1: think it's people who are residents of the United States.
Speaker 1: I would implore you to go anywhere in South or
Speaker 1: Central America and if they ask you where you're from
Speaker 1: and you say America, at some point somebody who go, well,
Speaker 1: I'm from America, because South America and North America are America,
Speaker 1: and so people see that asthma. This is a real thing.
Speaker 1: Well we're two thirds of the way through. Oh no,
Speaker 1: there's right, there's like six cuts on the other page.
Speaker 1: Well we're just over half of the way through. So
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a busy hour because remember we
Speaker 1: had events obviously the inauguration itself. We had the U
Speaker 1: in the the next room over the overflow seating in
Speaker 1: Emancipation Hall, then the cap One Center, then at the
Speaker 1: White House you know they're in the Oval Office, and
Speaker 1: then you just had everything that's happening around it. The busy, busy,
Speaker 1: busy day. So trying to do our best to revisit it.
Speaker 1: But there was there's other things too, like people like
Speaker 1: they a meet. There's so many things that immediately happened,
Speaker 1: like all of these web pages that were DEI related,
Speaker 1: they're just gone. They just and so you have a
Speaker 1: bunch of moonbats and journalists, sometimes one of the same
Speaker 1: who are panic posting like four h four airs, Like
Speaker 1: when you go to a web page or like this
Speaker 1: page doesn't exist and it existed ten minutes before that
Speaker 1: and they immed. It shows you the amount of prep
Speaker 1: that they did and and likely how valuable because like,
Speaker 1: think of what you lunatics did. You hated this guy
Speaker 1: so much. You created a scenario where he had four
Speaker 1: years to stew and understood what was happening.
Speaker 2: The fact is he's governing completely different. If he had
Speaker 2: won in twenty twenty, it wouldn't be this way.
Speaker 1: No, I'd be a continuation of a lot of the
Speaker 1: slow roll. I'd have a lot of people around him
Speaker 1: that were not probably should be around him.
Speaker 2: Because before he sort of had, you know, had a vision.
Speaker 2: Now he has a mission and.
Speaker 1: He understands a lot of the process a lot more
Speaker 1: as you can only do by being in there right.
Speaker 1: You only can't when I first started doing talk, you
Speaker 1: can't trap yourself to do talk right. You just have
Speaker 1: to do it. And then you realize a little, you know,
Speaker 1: a year down the road, you go back and you
Speaker 1: listen to your first few shows and you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: why would anyone listen? That's awful? But you're right. Ross
Speaker 1: is absolutely right. He sat there and he had to adapt.
Speaker 1: And what you forced because you then tried to pillory
Speaker 1: the dude. His adaption was to double down in some
Speaker 1: instance and go I'm not waiting, which is why they
Speaker 1: did all the stuff immediately yesterday. It's not just that, though,
Speaker 1: but he also believes he has a mandate from God.
Speaker 1: That's powerful. That's a powerful way to change is when
Speaker 1: you think that you know what I mean, like it
Speaker 1: gives you purpose and people are like, oh, it's terrify,
Speaker 1: this is exactly what you know, and then pick you know,
Speaker 1: some guy picked, like the dude down in Venezuela thinks
Speaker 1: he's a reincarnation of Simone Boulevard.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 1: We talked about that, right, But it doesn't necessarily mean
Speaker 1: that Jimmy Carter claimed. Jimmy Carter claimed to have a
Speaker 1: mission from God. A lot of people do, a lot
Speaker 1: of people think that the path that has let them
Speaker 1: And that's not necessarily a negative thing. How many of
Speaker 1: you live your lives differently now because of your religion.
Speaker 1: So don't allow the media to just decide because you've
Speaker 1: gotten more spiritual that that's somehow a pathway to you know,
Speaker 1: I've in the terrible and you know, sticking heads on
Speaker 1: spikes or lad the impale kind of stuff like, it
Speaker 1: doesn't necessarily mean that. So if he thinks that that
Speaker 1: assassination attempt had a spiritual component, it's not necessarily a
Speaker 1: negative thing.
Speaker 2: Ask anybody who I myself right with my recovery from alcohol, sobriety.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're a different dude.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 2: It's completely different when it's faith based. It really it
Speaker 2: changes everything, it really does. Russell Brand recently was talking
Speaker 2: about this, you know, because he's done a complete one
Speaker 2: eighty and he's found God. I mean, I'm telling you, man,
Speaker 2: it's powerful.
Speaker 1: And even if God isn't what you find, but you
Speaker 1: find a purpose like you mentioned, even if you consider
Speaker 1: yourself agnostic or atheist or whatever it is or you
Speaker 1: can't put into words, but you feel that you have
Speaker 1: a purpose that you didn't have some you know people people,
Speaker 1: I've seen people change because they had kids. They didn't
Speaker 1: necessarily find God, but they found a purpose and the
Speaker 1: purpose was that's little me. I can't let little me
Speaker 1: live like I've been living. And if that's what gets
Speaker 1: you there, then good on you. So, uh, it's not
Speaker 1: they're gonna paint it as something to be fearful of.
Speaker 1: And it doesn't necessarily Now, if he starts putting heads
Speaker 1: on Spike, call me and we'll talk about that, and
Speaker 1: I'll probably be against that. What I have a line, right,
Speaker 1: I have a line as much as there's some people
Speaker 1: in DC who frankly should have a job anymore. Uh,
Speaker 1: that's a little much. So with that in mind, as
Speaker 1: he's stumming this thing up, and there's a couple high points,
Speaker 1: I want to throw one thing in here. This is dude.
Speaker 1: He used the term manifest destiny, and I fell out
Speaker 1: of my chair because I one I knew that they
Speaker 1: were going to go like, oh, it wants to kill
Speaker 1: Native Americans. It's not what he said. This is what
Speaker 1: he said.
Speaker 5: We will pursue our manifest destiny into the stars, launching
Speaker 5: American astronauts to plant the stars and stripes on the
Speaker 5: planet Mars.
Speaker 1: Elon must go crazy behind him for obvious the Indians
Speaker 1: and Mars better be prepared because oh my gosh, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: space blankets. It's gonna be a whole thing, man, watch
Speaker 1: out for that. No, in all seriousness, what he's talking
Speaker 1: about is the things and He went on a little longer,
Speaker 1: but that's that's a good summary of it. Is these
Speaker 1: are aspirations that we had, and he talked about territory
Speaker 1: building and people were freaking out. He's talking about Mars
Speaker 1: or space stations or big ideas that used to drive
Speaker 1: us and still do in many instances. There's nothing wrong
Speaker 1: with that. I wasn't around for the space race with
Speaker 1: the with the moon, but those of you who were
Speaker 1: what an aspirational time? What an aspirational time to sit
Speaker 1: there and go this is that lunatic of a president?
Speaker 1: John F. Kennedy just said, were going to space in
Speaker 1: five years? How are we going to do that? And
Speaker 1: then we're going to the moon in five years? How
Speaker 1: are we doing that? Boom the moon? By the way,
Speaker 1: Oh right, with the fake Just understand what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: This is this was aspirational stuff. And as Trump summed
Speaker 1: it up, it.
Speaker 5: Was impossible for me to stage such a historic political comeback.
Speaker 5: But as you see today here I am, the American
Speaker 5: people have spoken.
Speaker 1: And that sums up everything he said. So buckle in,
Speaker 1: is he going to do stuff that I don't think
Speaker 1: he should do? Yes? Absolutely one. Do I think he's
Speaker 1: doing it out of malice. It depends what he's doing.
Speaker 1: For the most part. No, do I think that he
Speaker 1: believes that the country is that, you know, half of
Speaker 1: people in the country are fundamentally idiots or garbage. I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't, But I think that people around Joe Biden did,
Speaker 1: even if he wasn't able to, you know, think it himself.
Speaker 1: And the difference is Joe was being led around, as
Speaker 1: we talked about with Mike Johnson saying he doesn't like
Speaker 1: Biden did not realize he's signed an executive order halting
Speaker 1: liquid natural gas exports. That should be the scandal of
Speaker 1: my lifetime. If people who were unelected were shoving stuff
Speaker 1: in Joe's face to sign for their own pet projects.
Speaker 1: I can't eat like these. That's like people who have
Speaker 1: a senior member of their family and they get power
Speaker 1: of attorney and then they drain their bank account, leaving
Speaker 1: somebody destitute and dealing with cognitive issues. It's some of
Speaker 1: the saddest stuff you've seen, some of the most criminal,
Speaker 1: heartless souls crap that you see, and they exploited that.
Speaker 1: From there, it was to the UH Emancipatient Hall. He
Speaker 1: thought he's kind of going back and forth with the
Speaker 1: Texas governor. It's not not a ton of stuff there.
Speaker 1: Let's head over there with the cap One Center. Now
Speaker 1: as that thing's getting going, there is a constant video
Speaker 1: on the Vance family and and his wife. They're three rugrats,
Speaker 1: two boys, one girl, and they're they're running around. I mean,
Speaker 1: they're doing what kids do when they have to go
Speaker 1: to an adult event that takes a very long time.
Speaker 1: And the and you know, Trump's talking with their run
Speaker 1: around moms trying to you know, ushah. She's just sitting
Speaker 1: there like, hey, hey, they're doing the thing where they
Speaker 1: yeah you did as a kid, where you're like, I'm
Speaker 1: a smack my sister, don't do that.
Speaker 3: We was.
Speaker 1: She came on my side, like everyone knew, even though
Speaker 1: you didn't have sound on it, what was going on.
Speaker 1: And people were speculating because the little girl's got she's
Speaker 1: got band aids all over her fingers, and they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: well she you know, they're they were throwing damn near
Speaker 1: accusations of child abuse. What are you talking about. I
Speaker 1: had little sisters who were fascinated with band aids. My
Speaker 1: mom would get mad because she'd hide them from them,
Speaker 1: and and my brother and Demisa's extent I used to
Speaker 1: buy I kind of still pick up my nails. My
Speaker 1: mom put band aids on there. This is normal relatable stuff.
Speaker 1: Two rambunctious boys running around. This is normal relatable stuff.
Speaker 1: And there were takes like, Dvances can't even control their kids,
Speaker 1: how could they possibly aid in the administration of government,
Speaker 1: which is really rich?
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 2: No, The worst take I saw it was somebody saying
Speaker 2: that the reason the child had band aids on is
Speaker 2: because they were self harming, because they didn't want to
Speaker 2: be there, because the Vances were abusive.
Speaker 1: Because she's four and she's put all that together and
Speaker 1: what is this more of Malania's wearing a white dress
Speaker 1: as a cry for help. Crap, it's the worst stuff.
Speaker 1: Let me ask is it self farm stuff? But like
Speaker 1: you said, she's four, dude, she's four, Yes, And what
Speaker 1: they're doing with there are they were better behave than
Speaker 1: me and my siblings were Oh yeah, I was looking
Speaker 1: at that. I don't even have kids, saying but let
Speaker 1: me ask you this. They're like, oh, well, look at
Speaker 1: their kids, which is I want you to think about
Speaker 1: that statement. Look at the Vance's kids. They're horrible people
Speaker 1: because of the way they're acting. What do you think
Speaker 1: is more relatable rambunctious boys or doing crackoff hooker butts.
Speaker 1: Go ahead, tell me what is more relatable and who's
Speaker 1: less able to control the impulses of their kids? Sugared
Speaker 1: up toddlers or a guy who's got he has there's
Speaker 1: more pictures of that guy's junk floating around than there
Speaker 1: are physical pictures of me. My goat for photos. The
Speaker 1: least amount of photos is William H. Bonnie, Right, there's one,
Speaker 1: and that's one too many. Hunter Biden's manhood is And
Speaker 1: you're talking about controlling kids or the kids being a
Speaker 1: reflection of the parents. Are you insane? That's some trolling man.
Speaker 2: I mean, if you really want to go there, like
Speaker 2: you said, there's more photos of cracked out Hunter Biden
Speaker 2: naked with hookers than than Michelle Obama pregnant.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess you could go. By the way, are
Speaker 1: you following the whole rumor they're spinning on this thing
Speaker 1: that they are on the outs? And I even saw
Speaker 1: somebody I even saw yesterday as somebody who is like
Speaker 1: a gossip reporter saying that the that the that the
Speaker 1: Obamas are splitting man. Yeah, and that he's dating I
Speaker 1: don't know. Hold on for that he's dating Jennifer Garner.
Speaker 2: I have not heard that.
Speaker 1: No, oh yeah, I saw that. Yes, I don't know
Speaker 1: there's any validity to it.
Speaker 2: But because there's been several events where she just hasn't
Speaker 2: showed right. There was the Carter funeral, and there was
Speaker 2: the inauguration.
Speaker 1: Right right, yeah, not there. I don't know the reason.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't have to look, I don't
Speaker 1: have to speculate. Maybe she just doesn't want to go,
Speaker 1: which is well, and we've seen a lot of that, right,
Speaker 1: we saw where they didn't invite for the visit, you know,
Speaker 1: the traditional visits, a lot of hard feelings. Joe Biden
Speaker 1: Nancy pull hate each other.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 2: I mean, from my point of view, it'd be very
Speaker 2: human if the simple reason is I'm tired and I
Speaker 2: don't want to go. I'm tired of this, yeah, you know,
Speaker 2: But also it.
Speaker 1: Does Does it make any difference to you if she's
Speaker 1: there or not? No, no, or me? It wouldn't make
Speaker 1: any difference if the bushes showed up or not. I
Speaker 1: don't care. I don't care. It's not their inauguration, don't
Speaker 1: give me the traditions and norms. Admittedly, you know, Trump
Speaker 1: pushed back on those. That was his platform. The Biden
Speaker 1: administration double tripled down on that. So we're done with those.
Speaker 1: You may not like that, but we are. And once
Speaker 1: he talking about no, he's getting right to work, he
Speaker 1: sits down. When they hold that desk into the Capitol
Speaker 1: One Center and start posting photos three hours out, I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh my goodness, that was one of those moments where
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm laughing, excited, laughing.
Speaker 2: Can we agree it's like the greatest inauguration to post
Speaker 2: inaugurational show ever.
Speaker 1: Stop watching. Yeah, it was National Championship Football Day and
Speaker 1: I didn't think about it until twenty minutes before the game,
Speaker 1: and then I watched it for the first prime like
Speaker 1: this is bad, bad, I'm out But yeah, And and
Speaker 1: you know, meanwhile, people are run around, They're like, oh,
Speaker 1: I didn't even put his hand on the Bible. He's
Speaker 1: not president. Okay, one, you don't have to two. And
Speaker 1: this was this was more. This was more of the Okay,
Speaker 1: I didn't send that to you. I didn't think so
Speaker 1: this is this is more of the absolute lack of context.
Speaker 1: So I saw ye. Just the horrible, horrible coverage of this.
Speaker 1: We're like, well, you put his hand on the Bible.
Speaker 1: Why is that? Because John Roberts literally went early and
Speaker 1: all I have to do is put eyes on it.
Speaker 1: Milania is not there holding the Bible. She's off to
Speaker 1: the site, and Roberts like, let's do this, let's go,
Speaker 1: and you see her kind of scramble over at the
Speaker 1: last minute. Meanwhile, Trump's got his hand up, his right
Speaker 1: hand up, his eyes are directly at the Chief Justice,
Speaker 1: and they do this thing. One. He doesn't have to
Speaker 1: put his hand on there. He put his hand on
Speaker 1: anything or nothing at all. It's the oath he swears,
Speaker 1: which he did. That's how that works. And then he
Speaker 1: got right to business.
Speaker 5: Oh, you're gonna have a lot of fun watching television tomorrow.
Speaker 5: Somebody said yesterday said, don't shine so many.
Speaker 3: In one day.
Speaker 5: Let's do it over a period of weeks.
Speaker 2: I said, like, hell, we're gonna.
Speaker 3: Do it over week.
Speaker 5: So we're gonna sign him at the beginning.
Speaker 1: And it was game on, and it was a lot
Speaker 1: again drinking from fire hose. It was a lot of
Speaker 1: stuff you expected and some stuff that, frankly I didn't
Speaker 1: think they'd get done in the first few minutes, like
Speaker 1: shutting all those websites up, revoking all those security clearances.
Speaker 1: They had this thing ready to go, Thank you, sir.
Speaker 1: The next item here is the withdrawal from the Paris
Speaker 1: Climate Treaty. Listen to that crowd and it's full, so
Speaker 1: I would say, yes, he's got that big flourishing signature.
Speaker 1: So I love this party because can I get a pen?
Speaker 1: One guy streaming and all this. We're going to save
Speaker 1: over a trillion dollars by withdrawing from that treaty. And
Speaker 1: then he starts throwing the pens into the crowd. Man,
Speaker 1: there needs to be a presidential pen gun like the
Speaker 1: T shirt gun at the at the you know the
Speaker 1: thing you went to the sporting event. Get me a
Speaker 1: presidential pen gat stat he's the president. Didn't get one. Oh,
Speaker 1: we'll be back. Hang on, buddy, and welcome back. We
Speaker 1: are sprinting to the finish today, just trying to get
Speaker 1: through all of the insanity from yesterday. And before we
Speaker 1: head over the Oval office real quick, let me let
Speaker 1: me head here first. So we got to talk about
Speaker 1: the Elon salute at the cap One Center. So here
Speaker 1: it is with context I would let you know that
Speaker 1: one of the most viral versions of this, which of
Speaker 1: course was put out by put out by a very
Speaker 1: dishonest reporter, if you even want to call him that,
Speaker 1: by the name of Aaron Rupard, who's so dishonest he's
Speaker 1: got his own word called getting Rupard. He trimmed off
Speaker 1: the back audio here, but we're going to listen to it.
Speaker 1: It's in its entirety, which, of course, the moment I
Speaker 1: saw it, I tweeted, this is going to be the
Speaker 1: main story in three two one, and CNN was already
Speaker 1: ready to go with this thing. Oh god, this is
Speaker 1: what he did. PBS did too, which is crazy if
Speaker 1: you're PBS, because it's like, you know this dude sign
Speaker 1: in nine thousand executive orders today. Are you trying to
Speaker 1: get yourself defunded? This is how you get yourself defunded.
Speaker 1: You absolute lunatics. But they lost their mind. Here's Elon
Speaker 1: and I just want to say thank you for making
Speaker 1: it happen. Thank you. You actually hear him hit his
Speaker 1: chest there, My heart goes out to you. Seems like
Speaker 1: important context.
Speaker 5: That the future of civilization is as shirt.
Speaker 1: All right, that's a and that's a big boast, but
Speaker 1: clearly that's contextual. He hits his heart and then puts
Speaker 1: his hand out, which, by the way, within thirteen seconds
Speaker 1: you can find every other politician on that stage in
Speaker 1: a pose with their handout that you could accuse them
Speaker 1: of being a Nazi. In one positive sign, though, the
Speaker 1: partisan the partisan hacks that are in leadership at the
Speaker 1: Anti Defamation League who were rubber stamps for any Democrat
Speaker 1: position attacking Trump for being a Nazi didn't go there,
Speaker 1: which it's a thousand little things that are very interesting
Speaker 1: to me, and that is definitely one of them. Had
Speaker 1: a very measured thing going. Clearly it didn't look like
Speaker 1: he's not doing a Nazi thing. Everybody needs to take
Speaker 1: the temperature down, which is the proper response there, even
Speaker 1: though I feel like it should have been more aggressive
Speaker 1: in telling people that this is done. But whatever, and
Speaker 1: then it was off to the Oval office to deal
Speaker 1: with things like TikTok, which, by the way, Ross, did
Speaker 1: you see the very unfortunate graphics air on Fox News
Speaker 1: over the TikTok story? Did I send that to you?
Speaker 1: I can't remember if I sent that to you where
Speaker 1: they they misspelled TikTok by transposing the third letter and
Speaker 1: the fourth letter. I can't say it on the air.
Speaker 1: So instead of tick, it ends with the T, and
Speaker 1: instead of talk it starts with another T.
Speaker 2: Say that that's a completely different website.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we did some research, totally different. Want to I
Speaker 1: want to, I want to mess that up. But uh,
Speaker 1: I you know that was I'm sorry, it's kind of
Speaker 1: funny just because I'm childish, But yeah, don't go to
Speaker 1: the third and fourth letter transposed that website. That's bad stuff,
Speaker 1: you know, unless you're into it.
Speaker 5: What every rich person has called me about TikTok did
Speaker 5: blog TikTok?
Speaker 1: Why you need to change my mind.
Speaker 8: Because I got to use it.
Speaker 5: And remember TikTok is large.
Speaker 1: Let's let's go ahead and be honest. He says, you
Speaker 1: got to use it. He realized that, and I think
Speaker 1: a lot of people realize it. Maybe didn't predict it.
Speaker 1: It arguably, outside of Twitter, X was the most effective
Speaker 1: social media for his campaign. But it doesn't change security concerns.
Speaker 1: And by the way, I don't know that this executive
Speaker 1: order is legal however, and this is a play out
Speaker 1: of the Democrats. You can't adjudicate it in the ninety
Speaker 1: days or forty five days or what you know, whatever
Speaker 1: the two separate little things are, you'll never get it
Speaker 1: through a court in times. So that's the game they're playing,
Speaker 1: which you know they've already filed lawsuits yesterday over dosee.
Speaker 3: So the old.
Speaker 1: Lawfair meet the new law fair, same as the old lawfair.
Speaker 1: Here we are got kids, young kids.
Speaker 5: If China's going to get information about young kids out
Speaker 5: of it, I think, to be honest with I think
Speaker 5: we have bigger problems than that. But you know, when
Speaker 5: you take a look at telephones that are made in
Speaker 5: China and all the other things that are made in China,
Speaker 5: military equipment made in China, TikTok, I think TikTok.
Speaker 8: Is not the biggest problem.
Speaker 5: But there's big value in TikTok if it gets approved.
Speaker 8: If it does, you get improve there's no value.
Speaker 5: So if we create that value, why aren't we entitled
Speaker 5: to like half?
Speaker 3: All right?
Speaker 1: Well, and and I understand the thinking there, But it's
Speaker 1: also more than just capturing information. It's the propaganda ish nature.
Speaker 1: And you're seeing you're seeing that on this this red
Speaker 1: note or whatever it is, where they're just blowing out
Speaker 1: accounts for really minute stuff. But that clearly is you
Speaker 1: know under what the Chinese government boundaries would be. And
Speaker 1: you have to remember that if you are a company
Speaker 1: based in China under the laws of China, you have
Speaker 1: no choice but to provide information and consult with the
Speaker 1: Communist Party leaders. So just understand. And that's why this
Speaker 1: is going on. But that's not what the big story was.
Speaker 1: The one that they were still losing their minds over
Speaker 1: this morning was, of course j six partners and commutations
Speaker 1: relating to defens occurred on January.
Speaker 3: Sixth, twenty twenty. Okay, and how many people are in this?
Speaker 1: I think this order will apply to a prossimbly fifteen
Speaker 1: hundred peoples.
Speaker 8: So this is January sixth. These are the hostages, approximately
Speaker 8: fifteen hundred for a party full part, full partner, commutations.
Speaker 1: Full part. I'll break that down in the moment.
Speaker 8: Commutations and there. Well, we're doing further research.
Speaker 1: Okay, there's actually twelve yeah, big one. Yeah, that is.
Speaker 8: Anything you want to explain about this.
Speaker 5: We hope they get them. We hope they come out tonight.
Speaker 1: Frankly, well, and that in and of itself, I don't
Speaker 1: have time to dive into that. So you have a
Speaker 1: combination of full partons, which is the vast, vast majority.
Speaker 1: You have commutations which are split in and I think
Speaker 1: there is still some uh some research stuff that is
Speaker 1: going on. I don't have the number in front of me, so,
Speaker 1: but for the vast vast majority, it was instantaneous, and
Speaker 1: and yet they were fighting federal penal institutions, even halfway
Speaker 1: houses in some instances where they're saying, well, we can't
Speaker 1: process them out today it's a holiday. Well then you're
Speaker 1: then you are under the law of the land. You're
Speaker 1: holding people illegally. There's there's Fourth Amendment issues here. So
Speaker 1: I don't I think if it gets done in the
Speaker 1: next you know, in the next day or two, there
Speaker 1: probably won't be a lot of hubbub. But if there
Speaker 1: are people in the in there who are actively butt
Speaker 1: heurt over what Trump's doing, and they feel that this
Speaker 1: is their way of being the resistance, then those people
Speaker 1: need to go. I'm not talking about some guard it's
Speaker 1: his second week and he doesn't know what he should
Speaker 1: do and he can't get anyone on the phone. If
Speaker 1: there are people who actually went, I don't care what
Speaker 1: Trump says, screw them, then they need to go. An
Speaker 1: amount of people that are going or gone in less
Speaker 1: than twenty four hours is staggering.
Speaker 8: You were having a good conversation with President Obama at
Speaker 8: President I was, and you'd like to know what it was.
Speaker 5: Everybody wants to know. I wouldn't want to least, but
Speaker 5: we were having some crazy conversations.
Speaker 8: Why do you asking a question like that?
Speaker 1: You know, I don't think you want to know.
Speaker 5: You might you might be insulted.
Speaker 1: Now if a big list of things, I want to know,
Speaker 1: there's one thing above and beyond everything else, as it
Speaker 1: pertains to previous presidents, and it's this letter he may have.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: It could have been years before we died.
Speaker 5: Wow, thank you Outside. Maybe we should all read it together. Well,
Speaker 5: maybe I'll read it first and then make that.
Speaker 1: So yeah, and uh, ross over under on it being
Speaker 1: a page from a color by Numbers book. What if
Speaker 1: what Joe Biden wrote him?
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's pretty good. Did you see outside?
Speaker 2: It was Baron Trump whispered something to Biden. Have you
Speaker 2: seen that video?
Speaker 1: I was due your psychic because I literally was going
Speaker 1: to add that when I went over the last thing here,
Speaker 1: but yeah, and Biden's face changed.
Speaker 2: It turns of like a ghost. Baron just goes over there,
Speaker 2: whispers something for like two seconds, two or three seconds,
Speaker 2: and Biden has a big old smile on his face,
Speaker 2: and then boom, like a ghost.
Speaker 1: I think he told him he's legal and he's not
Speaker 1: going home with him. I don't know. You see the
Speaker 1: one where he's leading it. Somebody posted this. He was
Speaker 1: leading down talking to one of Vance's kids, and it's
Speaker 1: to be titled it One for the Road. So, uh,
Speaker 1: I don't know, but you're right. Whatever Baron said to him,
Speaker 1: his demeanor changed instantaneously. There's two theories. One, he was
Speaker 1: smiling because he knew by Baron leading in, you know,
Speaker 1: he didn't want to look obstinate. And then when it
Speaker 1: was done, he's like, it's done. I don't smile anymore.
Speaker 1: But I don't know, man. Something something was said. Did
Speaker 1: you see Baron, by the way, when he was introduced,
Speaker 1: he put his hand behind his ear like Hogan used
Speaker 1: to do. Did you see that? If he were like
Speaker 1: that's too much, I'm like, I don't know. I just
Speaker 1: think it's hilarious. But I'm a jerk, so easily entertained.
Speaker 1: All right, Ray stage, I here to entertain us with weather,
Speaker 1: although it's not gonna be out you know, entertaining because
Speaker 1: it's freaking cold, but hey, we got to, you know,
Speaker 1: let's do it anyway. What's what's going on? Man?
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, not fun for us with the cold.
Speaker 6: Probably the cold mornings are going to be not only
Speaker 6: this morning, but especially Tomorrow morning into Wednesday, Wednesday night,
Speaker 6: Thursday morning, where many of us will be close to
Speaker 6: ten to fifteen degrees and that's air temperatures single digits
Speaker 6: out in the mountains. We did talk earlier. Winter weather
Speaker 6: advisors now include Wake County, Franklin County, points east, and
Speaker 6: then you go further east there's winter store mornings. I
Speaker 6: can't believe, Casey. There will be inches of snow at
Speaker 6: the beach and the outer banks today in some spots,
Speaker 6: and especially the further south going into the Carolina Beach
Speaker 6: is snowing in New Orleans right now. Airports are closed
Speaker 6: in Houston. Could have record snow, all time record snow
Speaker 6: here in that advisory. In east of US one, the
Speaker 6: Weather Service is saying maybe up to an inch. But
Speaker 6: we've got to remember it's real cold. Most of us
Speaker 6: low twenties this morning, and it's only going to get
Speaker 6: to freezing and a lot of clouds, so not a
Speaker 6: lot of sunshine. So it's one of those situations where
Speaker 6: it's been so cold that anything that falls, you know,
Speaker 6: even if it's less than an inch, it's gonna get
Speaker 6: slicked pretty quickly. So if you do snow and you're driving,
Speaker 6: please take it easy today, tonight, and even on Tomorrow morning.
Speaker 6: If we get some icy roads, certainly it'll freeze over
Speaker 6: with temperatures in the teens near freezing, but we will
Speaker 6: get some sun tomorrow, but we're low to mid teens
Speaker 6: tomorrow night to Thursday morning, so probably about ten to fifteen,
Speaker 6: and we may see some temperatures closer to forty, upper thirties,
Speaker 6: low forties for the rest of the week, and probably
Speaker 6: at fifty by the end of the weekend. So we'll
Speaker 6: get out of this cold snap, this little touch of
Speaker 6: the polar vortex visiting us, but going away over the
Speaker 6: next couple of days and especially by the weekend.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, thank you sir, we'll talk about row.
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Up yep, yep, and Jeff Bellinger joins us.
Speaker 3: Next.
Speaker 1: Hang on, Jeff, Well, a big day yesterday, So what's
Speaker 1: happening today with the markets.
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, a very big day yesterday and the
Speaker 9: markets were closed. Of course, some of President Trump's new
Speaker 9: policies will have an impact on business. They're among the
Speaker 9: things investors are considering as Wall Street gets back to business,
Speaker 9: and I'll say the focus so far has been on
Speaker 9: the potential boost from fiscal stimulus and tax cuts, not
Speaker 9: the threat of tariffs. Right now, the futures are higher
Speaker 9: across the board. S and P futures or up twenty
Speaker 9: nine points, NASDAC futures or up one hundred and twenty
Speaker 9: eight the Dow futures or up one hundred ninety seven points.
Speaker 1: Apple could miss out on any.
Speaker 9: Rally today today because the company got a rare downgrade.
Speaker 9: A Jeffreys analyst lowered his rating on the company from
Speaker 9: hold to underperform, saying he expects the tech giants quarterly
Speaker 9: results to fall short of estimates because of weak iPhone sales.
Speaker 9: A separate report based on independent research set that iPhone
Speaker 9: sales in China plunged more than eighteen percent in the
Speaker 9: latest quarter. Apple will post its results a week from Thursday.
Speaker 9: Starbucks CEO Brian Nichol has informed employees at the coffee company,
Speaker 9: some corporate positions will be eliminated. A memo says details
Speaker 9: about layoffs will come in March, but in store teams
Speaker 9: will not be affected by this round of cuts. Teleton
Speaker 9: expanded the district of its private label clothing collection. You
Speaker 9: can now order the fitness apparel and accessories on the
Speaker 9: Target website. The Peloton items were introduced a couple of
Speaker 9: months ago at Nordstrom. There is a new chief executive
Speaker 9: in charge at Cohle's Ashley Buchanan, is the chain's third
Speaker 9: CEO in just three years. The Wall Street Journal says
Speaker 9: longtime customers have a message for him. They want Cohles
Speaker 9: restored to the way it was before prior executives started
Speaker 9: chasing young shoppers and reducing store inventories. And President Trump
Speaker 9: will allow more time for TikTok's Chinese parent company to
Speaker 9: sell the app so it can continue to operate in
Speaker 9: the US. But in the meantime, casey Instagram is moving
Speaker 9: to take advantage of the crisis at TikTok. Sources say
Speaker 9: many content creators with big followings on TikTok have been
Speaker 9: contacted and offered generous bonuses to make their short videos
Speaker 9: for Instagram.
Speaker 1: Reels instead. Casey, okay, you get ready r TikTok account
Speaker 1: or you never had one?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: Good man, good man, good man. All right, Jeff, thank
Speaker 1: you very much. Okay, you have a good day. Yeah,
Speaker 1: although I'm not gonna lie Ross, I would love to
Speaker 1: watch Jeff do all the TikTok challenges, but that's just
Speaker 1: selfish me, all right, rapid fire. Few things, one of
Speaker 1: which was gonna be what the hell did Baron say
Speaker 1: to Joe Biden to have the have him change his face?
Speaker 1: I honestly, I just I think him. Ross, tell me,
Speaker 1: if you think this is too dark, what if he
Speaker 1: leaned in and he goes just so you know we're
Speaker 1: coming for you? That would do that?
Speaker 2: That was kind of the vibe that I picked up, man.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like because he wouldn't expect it from you know,
Speaker 1: basically a kid. And even though Barons adult.
Speaker 2: You see Baron though, first stuff, he's a giant. He's
Speaker 2: like eight foot tall. But you see him next to
Speaker 2: Elon Musk like during the speech, and it's like Baron
Speaker 2: looks like a killer. Like I don't mean like a
Speaker 2: physical killer, like I mean like if there's something competitively
Speaker 2: like he's gonna he's gonna win. That's the kind of
Speaker 2: vibe I get from that dude by looking at him.
Speaker 1: He sounds like he has that instinct. But unlike his father,
Speaker 1: he's almost more brooding in the way, you know what I'm.
Speaker 2: Saying, because he's well, he's seeing what happened, what has
Speaker 2: happened to his father, and what they try to do
Speaker 2: to his father, and it seems like he's been molded
Speaker 2: by it, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Yeah, in the same way that they're saying. You know,
Speaker 1: that's why con that's why Kamala didn't want to meet
Speaker 1: with Vance because of what he said, or why Pelosi
Speaker 1: and Biden, Joe Biden are fighting, and and the thing is, yeah,
Speaker 1: you like you, for lack of a better word, you
Speaker 1: radicalize that kid.
Speaker 2: You radicalized him, and he had a he had a
Speaker 2: big influence on his father's campaign, right. Remember he's he's
Speaker 2: the one that picked out what podcast he was going
Speaker 2: to go on, and it was completely different way of campaigning.
