alerts and time on Twitter and all of that. But we leave and then all of a sudden, we have a new pope. Now it was predictable, obviously, because the last pope died and we knew what was up. What was not predictable, though, though it was mentioned on this show, was that he was he was going to be an American And uh ross, you called it? Good job, buddy, I mean, I don't know, did you call it or you just wanted no I did?

after the week. And uh, to make it even better, it has like a polstering on the back, right, but it's so old that it sounds like it's haunted.

In some places we'll get we'll get stagic. I don't even know who's our weather guy today. One of them will be along at some point and we will querry them. But hopefully it's not What did you see ross? You see the video of the hailstorm in Nashville, golf ball size hail So no one was that uh Saturday or Friday? It's really bad. Uh hang, I tweeted out the video. Let me just uh, I have to scroll down a little there. Uh yeah, scroll down about seven or eight posts. Uh,

there's a video. It says devastating floods last year, forest fires followed, and then in the last couple of days Western North Carolina, specifically Asheville's where there's videos from it with both an earthquake and crazy hailstorm. That's insane, man, like, I don't know what you guys said to mother Nature up there, but apologize geez that is and and it's just devastating cars or some poor cow that's just getting walloped and uh. And then when it's hitting like pools

and stuff, man, and they're not they're not lying. That is a golf ball sized hail Just uh, just wild times. And then yeah, they had a earthquake. I think what did they settle at four point one that was tactical. I guess it was just into eastern Tennessee, so probably I doubt anyone to try had Triangle felt it. I didn't read anything that said that, but uh yeah, just absolutely wild times. Man, go away for a week, everything goes crazy. But then there's this and let me tell you.

Let me tell you it's always when we go out of town or we take it some time off that some of the craziest stories emerge. And then I have to make a decision, especially if it's in the front part of like a week long vacation. I have to go, is this still going to be relevant when we get back on you know, Monday or whatever the day is

we come back. And I battle with that, so I put stuff in like a maybe folder, and then I get to sit down on the night before when I'm putting the first packet together to figure out, right, what are we going to talk about if people still gonna

care about this? And I gotta tell you it's really nice when very early in the vacation a story comes along and I immediately know is gonna be evergreen And I don't even have to worry about that, And I've got one all ready to go for the first prep packet back, and I'll tell you what that story is coming up next. Here on the CaCO Day radio programs today, a quick recap of the recap. They figured out a

new pope. He's American immediately because this is what we do now, and mostly because I don't maybe this is the first pope we've been able to do it. Uh. You know, whenever somebody is thrust into the news in any way, shape or form, what do we immediately do? We go dig around in their social media and you really haven't been able to do that with the Pope before, and this one you can, and it's ross and never just have this conversation off the air. It's like either

he's a super Trump hating progression. It's clear that he disagrees with Trump when it comes to immigration stuff like

that's not even in debate. But it's like the media seems happy because I think they think that he's going to fight with Trump, which is it's just it's so predictable, like I almost don't even bring it up, but you kind of have to bring it up because it was just kind of disturbing to I was disturbing to watch all of the media's coverage really, like when when the Cardinals were locked in doing their thing, this is like this is some of the reporting you're getting, right, all right,

just phrasing. Okay, here we go.

was what fourth ballot? Third or fourth ballot? Oh, I was gonna confirm that it's not two different well whatever, you know, reasonably fast and then boom here it comes and the black smoke, they'll excuse me, the white smoke is there, the black smoke is gone, and and now everyone gathers in Saint Peter Square and it's a big reveal, and you got to wait about an hour. So there's a lot of speculation. Maybe some info leaks, maybe it doesn't.

And who walks out one of the cardinals from Chicago, although kind of from Peru too, And that's that's basically his life from Chicago. Did you see the video emerging him of him all donned in his white Sox gear at the games. Apparently he's a big baseball fan, let's see. And then you know, we start learning about him. And immediately what comes up are some some posts that are critical of Trump, specifically on immigration. And all of a sudden,

I'm watching NBC news Is broadcasts. They get really excited. Oh they got they bring people in. They're speculating like, oh, well, what does this mean. Maybe he's going to use this power? And and these are mostly people who mock people who are religious behind the scenes. You know, when you get when you get into some of these progressive newsrooms. It's not to say that there's not people who are religious in there, but generally, if they're doing a story about

organized religion. It's not necessarily a positive one. But if they think they can use the guy to go after Trump, fine, uh And so those things start getting highlighted, but also other stuff comes out. This is what Ross and I were talking about. The guy but for all practical purposes, seems to be very very pro life, which used to be a hallmark of.

at a gift shops a little a little strong. The word that I'd used for it, I was, there was no olive gard Just my point.

And my super Catholic grandparents were convinced that there never would be, And it was the idea that it would you can't have an American pope because then one country's allegiance would uh you know, there was concern that they would then bend the will of the church to benefit a country, and I don't necessarily believe that, but it was about a power in balance. Well, we're gonna find out because US has twenty five percent of the world's Catholics.

crazy allegation. The way that they worded it if I was misconstruing two different stories because like the whole plane thing and Trump is not a news story. And then had ABC News with anonymous sources decided to turn it into a whole thing. Man, And we'll dive into that, but we were just kind of looking back on what was going on with all the pope insanity there. Just there's a couple observations one and I watched, you know,

I watched it. I happen to turn on I've had NBC on and just you know, just grab whatever one was streaming it there. And so I'm watching, I'm watching the Pope come out and you know, the new Pope come out and do his address, and of course he does the initial address in Latin, which you know, that's that's pretty standard, pretty standard stuff obviously for for the Pope. And then he does something that his predecessor did where

he pivoted to Spanish. And the reason he speaks Spanish is he's he was in Peru for the Church for like a third of his life, so obviously his Spanish is very top notch. And I was a little disappointed that he didn't then pivot and say a few words in English, and if you if you don't think, if if you don't think that that's not something that has

given some thought, I'd be really surprised. And I and and because again I get the hey, let's talk, you know, let's uh, let's let's speak to let's speak Spanish, because that's obviously where he's most well known is in Peru, where the majority of of his his career has been has been right from Chicago, but but in Peru. And you can't go to a Latin American country and not

be primarily Catholic. So there's that. And you know, the equal amount of Central and South America number of Catholics is basically equal to the US, like North and South American continent are half the world's Catholics. So there's that, and let's see here. But it also was historical in the sense that you have the first pope that speaks English is his primary language, and it would have been very I don't know, symbolic, I think, just to say a few words in English. And I was kind of

surprised that he didn't. And of course then I said, you know, I go on and I read and he got people who are upset in other countries and I'm just like, look, just just why don't you wait and see what's going on. At the end of the day,

there's not a whole lot that changes. Okay, really not, but there could have been a couple things there that I think would have been commemorative in the same way that the previous pope, because it was from Argentina, and this pope, due to spending a lot of his career in Peru, made a point to communicate in Spanish. I will I would point out that during our vacation, I was in one of these Spanish speaking Latin American countries,

and they were very excited. They were very excited that this was going on, even though he was an American pope that he was, you know, he had that connection to Peru. So I'm cool with that, but not saying anything in English, like I would have liked one little indicator recognizing that. I know it's a little nitpicky, but I thought it would have been cool, because like when you're a kid, I don't know how many of you are Catholic or a raised Catholic, A lot comes at

you real fast. I'm not to say it's not in other religions that you have this as well, but like you know, when you're cranking up and then catechism and then all this stuff that goes on, and the head of your church is always somebody who you can't understand. I'm trying to put this for a kids filter, right, It's always interesting. It always seems. It always seemed to

me kind of disconnected. Not that we didn't have have you know, the parish priests there and and you know, the very when I go to my grandparents their church, they went to a different church because obviously they didn't live where I lived, and like, and he had that, and so even though you were in a different church, it was very familiar, which I did like. But it was always this kind of the the guy in charge, well the second in charge so to speak, uh is

always the he's some Italian dude overseas. And then Pope John Paul came, he came to Denver and like that was the whole thing, and and like and then that, so to have a pope standing there, even in you know, down on I'm in my forties, with a little with a little nod to the English, I still would have thought that was kind of cool, at the very least. Ross what they should have done if he didn't want to speak English is when they were having him do

the walk on, remind folks he's from Chicago. Can you imagine?

don't if you did that. I And let me just say.

doesn't have this. No, And he didn't say the same thing that he said in Latin and Spanish. He said something different. He was basically complimentary of his predecessor, and you know, just talking about his love of the Catholic church down in South America there.

already at the socks game perfect. Oh we went to a World Series game too, Yes, dudes, all in, dude, this is what it says. So this is This is a screenshot from the big Jumbo tron at the Sox Stadium. It says White Sox probably congratulate the South Side's very own Pope, Leo the fourteenth, named the two hundred and sixty eighth Pope the Roby Catholic. Thank you for specifying which Churchy's the pope.

in the iHeart facility in Tampa. No slushy machines in the Raleigh or Greensboro location. How do we not get

a slushy machine? And they had two, just saying so anyway, so I'm down there and I'm just about to get into essentially that the toll way into downtown Tampa because the facilities were familiar with Tampa are off Gandy Boulevard, so you basically have to you gotta go and you run down like Bay Shore area there and then when you pop out at the end of Gandy if you don't want to be on the tollway, you were right there on UH as you getting go ready to go

across the causeway there, and just as I'm entering the Tampa space, what do I see a brand new Portillo's opened right there on the edge of Tampa. Because that's one thing Florida has a lot of It's got one offs of change from other parts of the country. And I found out they were opening a couple in Tampa. It was like their first week open, So it was insane, and I sat there for an hour and a half waiting to go in through to get a Portillo sandwich

because it's been so long since I'd eaten one. Ah, now I want one so bad. Man. I've never had one that's stacked up. It's even and it's not the best necessarily in Chicago, but it's the most consistent. They're everywhere, and they're very very good. So all right, uh six forty seven, we'll do that. Spen went on a Chicago foods rant. Yeah. Again, I just would have liked to see just a nod to the American side of it, and not necessarily the American, but just the I don't know,

I don't know how to say it. Just speak a little English up there. I wa way, if I was a kid and the Pope was out there banging away perfect English, I feel like I would have been more interested instead of just you know how kids are when you're just sitting there like, oh, I'm going to go to church and it's very stodgy and and uh, your kid you would to be playing outside man, and I don't know, I feel like that would have been That

would have been a nice little connection moment. And I'm sure there'll be plenty of time where you because he'll visit, he'll do I'm sure they'll do a papal visit to the US and he'll he'll address everyone in English and it'll be there. But just something standing about standing on that balcony doing that, which would have been very very interesting, just from my perspective of younger me.

he said naughty words about Nancy Pelosi. Can you believe it? Yeah? Here we go headline New York Post, new Pope Leo the fourteen's brothers shear gross post calling Nancy Pelosi a drunk the Tuesday thing a cash of Facebook. And he's posted on Facebook. That's the other thing. This is so seven year old dude in Florida, man originally from Chicago.

He's not He's not. He's not on the Twitter. He's on the Facebook sharing memes and telling me how me Meta is gonna lock my account or whatever that weird spam thing is that always ends up Ross. Did you know that Meta's gonna lock our account if we don't do something? Yeah?

yell God and it's just it's it's real. But it's like one of them decided that this was their calling. And that doesn't mean everyone else in the family has to live at pope level rules. Man, this is a wild can you what if it was? What if those were the rules? And if your sibling becomes pope then all of a sudden, Yeah, no, nobody would you would talk your sibling out of it? So anyway, all right, enough on that, how about we switch things up to Kracoon,

although we'll take calls if you want. And if you don't know what Kracoon is, you're gonna find out next. So eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four hang on phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four. Uh what no, Sorry, I just saw the most random thing ross if I if you had to guess what the top three sodas are in the world, which one? What do you think they are? That is a random question, but you're gonna be honestly surprised by this.

Was he shooting a commercial right for Pepsi?

calls his mom and he's like, Mom, it's amazing. She happens to be there with like her black friend or something, and like it's just really funny. Like he's just breaking down what he's hearing on the other side of that phone where they're like, I'm sorry, your idea is what They have a Kardashian hand the police of pepsi, and then it's it's you know, all cops versus the general public beef that was going on in twenty twenties. Fixed. That's a horrible idea, son. So anyway, but yeah, I

remember that Pepsi commercial that was really bad. All right. Sorry, I got distracted by that because just not you know, so it's a fun fact. It's just not what I expected. Come on, new Burn, do better. Gotta turn this thing around, man,

turn this thing around. All right. I did mention that I was super excited that there was a story that emerged early, very early in the week that we had off, but I knew would be absolutely evergreen when we got back, and it is this amazing, you know, simultaneously kind of horrible story out of Ohio. No, not West Virginia, not Florida. Ohio gets the crown on this one. And it started as just a normal traffic stop with a couple of

women inside one of those cars. Repeat, there's just trash everywhere. I don't know how, I don't know if people drive around in cars like that, but but this one had a little extra twist.

some sovereign citizen or whatever. She's suspended or whatever, and she's got a zoo in there, and she's got more than one crackpipe because he grabs the map the meth pipe or whatever he calls it, and then all of a sudden, the raccoon's got a spare because you know, that's a crackcoon, that's not a raccoon, man, And that,

by the way, is an amazing movie. I idea that somebody's probably gonna steal, so whatever, And yeah, he's laughing, dude, you're telling me if you saw, because it's not like the raccoon can can work a lighter, but no, they are pretty crafty like with they can you know, their ability to manipulate stuff. But I don't think they're flicking a bit, man, So there is that. So that's more

of a residue thing right there. But I'm sorry, Ross if at some point today, let's say you're running errands, picking something up on the way home from work, and you get out of your car in the parking lot and all of a sudden you see them. You see a raccoon with a meth pipe. Like you're gonna laugh at that a little, right, even if it's an odd laugh, like an uncomfortable laugh. You'd be like, why does the raccoon have a meth pipe, but.

up raccoon. Dude, all right, here's my movie idea. Instead of just doing Cocaine Bear and Cracodile, which is a movie, they're doing crack coon. But not your average you know, animal horror flick, rather a gritty reboot of coutcoon, but crack coon. And it's not aliens still in old people, it's cracked out raccoons. What do you think I like it. I've got a lot of good ideas in today's show. So you guys are gona want to take notes, like

did you see President Trump also mentioned reopening Alcatraz. I told you. I look, don't get me wrong, I want to be off when I when it's time to, you know, not be on, not be it worked as everybody else does. You got to take a little time off. Yeah, do whatever you gotta do. It had but you know sometimes I'm just like, oh, that'd be amazing. But the reopened Alcatraz, I think you gotta let them try to swim it too. If people are on.

I did text you about this? Do the funniest thing happened. So as part of my vacation travels, I had a one day I just had to spend a day and one night in Panama City, Panama on an airport connection. So I check in to the I have Marriot put by the way, if you guys got Marriott points, you can stay at a JW Marriott or a W which are kind of like their top tier other than ritz top tier brand for like twenty five thousand points, which

you can't get. You can't get a courtyard for twenty well you might be able to get a courtyard for twenty five thousand points. So for whatever reason, when you're in like not in America, those merry up points go a long ways. So there's that. So I go, I get a room with the w rd's downtown. There's a restaurant called Bairute that's really really good there and uh and then they have like a rooftop bar thing at

this place too. It's just really nice. Panama City is a crazy city, man, just like one earthquake could just murder five million people because everyone lives in like sixty four high rises except for the ones that are empty and just tax shelters and like, So I go there and I have and I guys like, hey, you have I have gold status with Mary. I'm not bragging, but a lot of times they'll actually give you upgrades on that.

So they give me this upgrade. This's amazing room with this crazy shower that is the wall of the shower is the glass facade of the of the Tower hotel, so like, and there's not even a proper cover for it. So that's weird. But they have like they're like a rooftop pool bar restaurant thing. So I check in and I'm looking down on this thing and I'm like, wow,

look at those people. I'm gonna go down there. And so I go down to get something to because I was starving, and I'm sitting in the restaurant part, which kind of under an overhang. And then there's people over in the pool, and then they had over at the bar area, and uh, they are absolute lunatic German football fans, screaming, screaming at a series of TVs, and and so I'm talking to one of the dudes, and uh, he was He asked me something online. He says, I'm like, oh, yeah, Boondesliga.

They're watching Bundesliga soccer. And I told the dude, I'm like, oh yeah, yeah. Me and a buddy of work we talk about this all the time. He was so impressed. He was like, yeah, most Americans don't know the Bundesliga. And I'm like, noah, we've big fans. But then he started winning in to get into details, and I had to pretend like, oh, I have to hold on. I got to answer this email because if he starts then asking anything about it, the whole facade's going to fall apart.

But yeah, so there we go. That little random Bundesliga knowledge really panned out.

before they started asking questions. All right, so we got the pope stuff, we got the meth raccoon, and we got to talk about everybody's favorite senator and a guy that I might have warned you about, Tom Tillis, because this dude, this dude man that ego. You gotta understand. If there's somebody who wants to be literally like throw them in never get out prisons over J six, that is Tom Tillis's mentality. Man. He took that personally and you saw it weaponized. We get into that story coming

up next. Hang on. So the JW Marry out there. When you pull up to it, it looks really familiar because that's where they got the big casino and all that stuff. It looks really familiar, and I put my finger on it. It was the Trump Hotel. Remember the video of like a bunch of irritated Panamanians like ripping Trump International off the frontage facade of a hotel. That was the one. So now it's a JW. Marriott. So

I thought that was rather interesting. But what was really cool it was the first time, I think ever that I was seated on the correct side of the plane and there was no clouds. And the approach into Panama City, for those of you who've never flown down there, is you're you're in the you're you're over the water in the Caribbean.

The plane takes a hard right turn and he kind of flies, depending on where they traffic, you near or at least kind of alongside the Panama Canal, but you can't really see it because that lake has a lot of clouds and and uh. But it was perfectly clear and they had us so low, and then you were across Panama on a moment, and then they do a hard turn out over the Pacific, big left turn, and then you land at the Tokamon Tokema. I can never

pronounce that airport's name. And but this right ross it was low and slow, and so you could see like the people working, like the locks and stuff from the air, and I had never got to see it from that angle. And then I noticed something. The entire thing, one giant dragon parayed like in a nineties action movie. So the Chinese really are running things down there. Man, No, I was pretty crazy. Just seeing all those ships stowed out there and being able to see it from that was

very very cool. Sorry, just I nerd out on things like that. But all right, A few other things you know I've first mentioned on this show once or twice maybe that not big fans of Tom tillis Senator slender Man, mostly because I think he's an egotistical piece of garbage that has been proven to me during our several interactions over the years. And he was able to take down the what was going to be the next probably the next DC Attorney and the US Attorney for for Washington,

d C. Is I would argue, the most powerful. Some people would say the Southern District of New York, but I mean no, not when you're dealing with public you know, public corruption or the potential thereof being the guy in charge of the district is the same as the circuit court that is the DC district because they tend to adjudicate the government stuff. That's why it's so powerful. And Tom Tillis was not having this, dude, And there's a lot of speculation as to the reason some are accusatory

saying Tom was doing some real estate stuff. I don't know, but I have seen that wrote about, so if you're interested, maybe you should read up on it to you know, Tom Tillis took J six very personally, and so anyone who would have any sympathy even for people who did not lay a hand on anybody, apparently doesn't sit right with Tom Tillis. That's the impression I've got watching him

talk about this stuff. So the idea that they would potentially get somebody in there who, you know, maybe has pointed out that it was it's pretty goolaggy the way that some of these folks is Jay six people have been treated. I'm telling you, every time I read a treat a court transcript from it where they're like they're they're essentially making people do struggle sessions just so they don't get twenty years for crossing the threshold, like it's

really dark stuff. And for whatever reason, Tom tillis not a fan because this guy might have had a little sympathy Martin here, who by the way, had his name withdrawn because they it wasn't gonna get passed. Because Tom Tillis is having a temper tantrum. And I would point I want to point this out to Republican Party people

here this You gotta deal with this. If you think you're just gonna he's just gonna come in, and you want him to come in because you think it's the path of least resistance to keep that seat, good luck with that. Roy Cooper's probably going to be the next center or maybe not Roy Cooper because not feasibly, not after he dropped the ball on the hurricane stuff, he

shouldn't be. But who the hell knows. If Tom Tillis is the one and you fight behind the scenes not to have him primary, has he not proven to you he doesn't care. He's in this for himself and he's not serving the interest of the people that you would want to pay dues to you. So you got to deal with this. And I don't want to hear because this is inevitably what happens. Somebody from one of the county parties or whatever will be like, you can't talk

like that on the radio. If if he you know, you're gonna make it so if if he gets through, then he's gonna lose the election, and then a Democrat's gonna be in charge. And I'm literally at the point where how could it be worse? How could it be worse than having that guy there? And did you see what Trump did? He's like fire, all right, Martin's not

in you know't want him? Fine, we're gonna we're gonna make Judge Janine Piro, the acting US Attorney from Washington, DC, Judge, you had your pick of TV judges and you went with Judge Janine. I'm sure some of you like her. I don't necessarily like or dislike her. I find her hard to watch sometimes, but that's just me. But like, what was Judge Judy doing something? Remember how we used to joke, Hey, Judge, you don't make a good Supreme Court justice. Judge Judy, you may Judge Judy, what are

we doing? Hot Ross? If you could watch a Stogio court hearing? And I know she's the us, it would be the US attorney here. But you know, Judge, Judge Judy. But in this prosecutorial role, you get to tune in and you're gonna look at those clips, right.

that person should be. They want you want me to pick you want me to pick who the Republican Senate nomination. No, I'm not getting into that. I will evaluate who wants to step forward, but I'm not I'm not out here on a selection committee. But I think that trying to find somebody who would be a more useful vote in that position, it should not be difficult. Like to get the raccoon with the meth pipe, You got to move him here so he can get you know, residency first.

But yeah, give me, give me the kraccoon and people like well, who would be more trustworthy anybody? The snake from the Garden of Eden, because I understand his motivations, like more predictable Tom Tillis. I guess I do understand his motivation. Tom Tillis is there for him, and he is he is an absolute cancer and and and the big lift is going to be if somebody comes to try to primary him and the party does the thing where they're like, we're not going to take side, but

behind the scenes they're really taking sides and letting them know. Hey, man, man, you you better not you better not run, you better not do this. You're gonna be persona no grada. If you start pulling that crap because you're protecting this guy, then people shouldn't give you a single penny, not the one, because you're just gonna give it and then use it to promote this guy who's who, who has decided that he's just gonna do his own thing and screw his constituents,

who I've been warning you about for years. So no sympathy from me. Absolutely tortu him uh. Do you see country singer John Rich from Big and Rich he he He did a song dom dom.

heavy rain moves through tonight. We drop into the mid sixties, and we'll keep these showers and thunderstorms in the forecast both tomorrow and on Wednesday, with highs in the mid to upper seventies. And then we'll start to dry out and warm up with some mid eighties on Thursday afternoon and low nineties by Friday.

lack of doing anything is making me angry. I'll explain coming up next. Oh, speaking of conspiracy theories, I guess we're already down that road, so let's jump in. So you got these just absolutely out of controlled Democrats. You have with three House members, one of them is Bonnie

Watson Coleman, who's a congresswoman from New Jersey. You got the Newark mayor ros Baraka uh and others who decided that they were going to show up in an area called Delaney Hall, which is a detention center in Newark, and they're trying to build a bigger one. And this the mayor there has made it his goal to I guess this is the hill he wants to die on, rather than making the airport more accessible and not suck as much, which would be helpful if you ever have

to fly through Newark. So anyway, they decided they're going to show up this facility, and unlike when AOC showed up and literally the gate was open and she had to kind of go over the side to pretend that it wasn't open, they were met by a bunch of ice officers. Now they did get a little ways into the facility, and that's important because now they're on federal property and the officers who work there are federal officers, and these are federal lawmakers, with the exception of the

Newark mayor. And what happens is and I've watched the video, there's multiple angles, there's bodycam, and then there's other people that were just filming these reps La Monica McIver. Primarily, they start getting physical with the officers. I'm not exaggerating.

I mean she's physically she's physically assaulting one of these officers. Now, now it's not a very strong assault because she's a frail woman, but you know, still they're doing something that anybody anywhere on federal property assaulting a federal officer would be in handcuffs. And they don't arrest this woman. Now, they did cite Baraka because you refuse to leave. Then he claimed that he was never told to leave. And they're all lying, right, every statement I've seen from Baraka

and the rest of them, I didn't assault anyone. I kid you not. I'm gonna I'm gonna play her explanation. She's turned into a conspiracy theory. They need the person who assaulted an officer. You don't to charge it with the big one. But she has to go, she has to go get arrested. And I'm sick of this. I'm just done. If members, if no one's above the law, and this is it, and you're on video assaulting a federal agent on federal property, New Jersey doesn't have anything to say

about it. This is a one FEDS thing. Where the hell is Patel and Bongino and the d and Bondie getting this woman arrested and charged. I'm sick of this. When that jackass pull the fire alarm there and he ended up with a municipal code violation and losing his seat. No, we're not doing this. She assaulted a federal officer on video, is how I interpret this. And she needs to be held accountable because none of us can do it, and instead she's just this is her excuse.

but it's physical assault. And none of us could get away with it. And yet they're going to and there's no reason because Republicans have all the cards, and you need to point out that this is not acceptable.

I'm unaware of? And does that mean consume it? Can they still handle it in cold cut fashioned while placing it on a sandwich with other deliciousness? I mean, if you're accusing me of being a you know, a pig about this, I'm assuming that's what you think. I think, how is it do women not eat protein? And the answer is they do? So how it's gendered? Though I'm not sure now women? Do women eat different types of

protein because men and women are different? Yes, but it doesn't it's it doesn't mean that they don't want to kill a sixteen ounce ribbi. But you know, chances are you're gonna have dudes probably eating more steak. And if you're the exception of the rule, you don't have to

call to tell I understand. But like this, like the premise for these stories that they're running out of, you know, ABC News with their big scoop that oh, Dubai is going to give Trump a plane and then he's going to keep the plane for his presidential library after and it's gonna be air Force one and it's a bribe, and it's all like that whole story that was blowing up yesterday had me so confused because just a few days before, I read a story about how Boeing is

so not doing the job that they were paid to do. And I'm sure some of it has to do with government change orders and bureaucracy, so I'm not going to put it all on Boeing, but they were This was the year they're supposed to deliver the first of the two new Air Force ones. This was it and now Trump may be lucky in his time as president if

they're ever delivered. And so what do you do? So ABC News runs an article saying that the Trumps tend to take a big gift from the you know, the guys in Dubai or whatever, and they just run with that. Everyone freaks out and nobody fact checks it, and nobody stops for a moment to go, wait a secon, didn't I just see a story a week ago where a plane that used to you know, was was a plane owned by the you know, the the government of Dubai, whoever,

you know, whoever. The top dark family is there. Known as a flying Palace is a highly customized plane that is basically the same type of plane that the Air Force one is going to be. That it was not utilized by Dubai anymore and is literally sitting there and you if for sale, and so they were talking about acquiring that plane. It doesn't say that they're giving it to them. They're talking about acquiring that plane, which they

would have to retrofit. But a lot of the stuff. Now, I don't know if I like the idea, but it's not like a bud You know, a bunch of guys in the Middle East knew that this plane was going to be the plane of the president, so they were able to install a bunch of stuff. But still it would make me nervous as a security guy. But this

is one of the options they're looking at. And they went on this tangent on ABC yesterday Jonathan Carl with an exclusive scoop from anonymous sources saying, this is what's happening, and it is a wild misconstruing of the situation there. You know, how many planes of that size are built out in a format that could be somewhat retrofitted to haul the president of the United States. There's probably five in the world and one of them which used to be owned and all the bells and whistles is there

because that's how they roll in Dubai. And I think it's sitting in Florida. I think the damn thing is sitting in Florida right with with a broker. This is it. This is the stupidity of it. Remember when they did this with where they said, what was the story? But was it? Trump used one of Epstein's planes to go somewhere and and they're all free to like, see there's the proof this was. This was not that long ago.

It was during the election. And what it actually was and maybe I'm getting a little of it wrong, it was Trump or somebody in his orbit and it was a plane because Epstein had multiple planes that were seized and sold and is owned by a company that then leases planes, and they used it and they leased it as part of their travel needs during the election. Oh like they borrowed it from Epstein, who's not even alive at that point. It's it's just stupid. So if you

see that story today, understand what you're getting. This is not what the founding fathers would have envisioned. And we know this because over the weekend, SNL decided to do a skit that is one hundred percent a manifestation of the meme you've seen online if you've spent a moment on social media where it's it's like the little cartooning almost like a political cartoon. Bounty father's sitting around and then the word bubbles, and then some guy's like, and gut,

let's let's give them all guns. And then another family father's like, you know, this country's gonna be lit right, you've seen that. So SNL decided, hey, what if we do that in a skit? And I got to tell you it worked pretty good. Walton Goggins was on or Walter I. I can't remember which one it is. He's nactually

recognized of Righteous Gemstones. He likes cocaine a lot. His character does a bunch of other of fat Man the Mel Gibson Santa movie, which you should watch if you haven't seen it, he's the baddie and in this case he's one of the founding fathers named Matt, and they're sitting around. They've just completed the first Amendment and now they're on to the second Amendment and what should it be? And that's where we pick up. Now, what shall we discuss next?

very good skitch. So we'll tweak that out for you. All right, eight sixteen here on the case O Day radio program, speaking of tweets and guns, Ross, did you see what Yildagrass Tyson tweeted right around all the pope stuff was going on. Did you know?

if he knew that. Although I was gonna say you're speaking of conspiracy theory, I was going to say, you know, Jesus never really walked in the US. But have you seen have you ever watched some of the things where they say that he then came to the New World. Have you ever ever seen any.

say it matches up. So what they're trying to say is like all of the battles in Canaan or whatever of the Bible are actually actually took place in southwest United States, which is uh, it's out there.

a little little insulting right there? And I don't know, I don't know if Disney has the moral high ground opening theme parks where they can still murder you for apostasy. How do you basically renouncing religion and until like five minutes ago you could you could stone your wife still because she's acting like a hussy. So I don't know if that's the best part for a theme park. Maybe they'll have some customized rights. I don't know, could be interesting,

but yeah, so, by the way, they're not alone. Also in currently this dude, when this thing collapses in the Middle East, it's going to be wild. Warner Brothers World, Sea World and Ferrari World are three other theme parks currently being designed. But you know, the Disney thing, wasn't expecting that. But also look at look at where you're doing business, and then you know, feel free to preach me from your moral high ground there on your app

ahead of a movie. Okay, all right, eight twenty three will be right back, hang on, all right, I'm sending this to Ross. He did not know about these, so I was reading a little. So it looks like we're China. At least there's some headway being made where they're not done, probably not by a long shot.

And so all of a sudden, if you like, I saw a video where he's a mechanic at some dealership and they've had a car where the button array on the door that controls the four windows was malfunctioning. They needed a new one, just that part, right, The windows were fine, it was just just that part, that little panel with the buttons on it, maybe the size of a smartphone. And uh and NAPA was quoting like twelve hundred dollars for it, and it was like eight hundred

dollars or one of their other suppliers. You showed the part screen that they that they used to search out for the OEM stuff, and it's it's like, what do you think is going on with that? I'm probably gonna have to order it, which is kind of a little crazy to me, but yeah, so that's good. And then I was telling Ross, I'm like, you know, but they also have to do this negotiation because I really wanted to go there, but you can't unless you so I

don't know if you know this. You can go to China, and you can go to and you have to you have to get a visa for which part of China, but you're limited where you can travel. And I don't just mean like if you're if you're gonna be up in the northeast with Beijing versus you know down south was Shangh Right, No, I'm talking about there are large swaths of China that you just can't go to unescorted or not on a specialty visa, which I did not know until I went there went, but I wanted to

go because I had heard about these things. You know, in China they have knockoff cities, right, They have like recreations of cities from around the world. And these are not little cities. And the one I wanted to go to and I couldn't go to because it didn't fit with why we were there. But they have and I hate that they call it this. They have a Jackson Hole recreation in China, just randomly built one just over the years, and it's it's not a theme park per se.

It's got I think it has ten thousand residents, which is more than Jackson has, and they just recreated it kind of mostly and it's it's it's not that far. They also have like an English town. They have a parish, except they always smuts it up with stuff. So like if you go to the English town, it's a combination of like James Bond, Winston Churchill with some Harry Potter castle stuff built. They just kind of add on whatever.

the Shakespeare thing. And by the way, I don't know if you saw JK rallying have to having to explain to activists that Shakespeare was not trans Did you see that fight over the weekend? You didn't see that on Twitter? Because that's the thing. Unfortunately, I saw some of the dumbest takes on Twitter. I'll tell you the crazy. The dumbest thing I saw was an article from screen Rant

and I don't have it in front of me. But the headline with some along the lines of watching the watching the New Disney Store of referring to and Or now makes me understand that Hans Solo may have been a main may have been an important character. Is that I'm sorry, Is there an element to the Star Wars fandom that doesn't see Hans Solo as an important character? Is that a thing apparently was a thing? I'm like, he's the O g Man.

was back in the day. So maybe they're thinking, because now we see that there are people in the Rebellion that aren't Jedi, that for some reason they now put value in Han Solo, which is really dumb.

been there to do them. I know that later they knew heed his character and they let some woman walk on to the you know, to his ship and basically tell him how to run anything everything and how to fix everything even though she'd never been on it whatever. But I'm talking original og star Wars, No Han Solo, a lot of stuff not getting done kind of an important element. So yeah, I was, I was unfamiliar with

that little slice of the fandom there. So well, we'll have to see, all right, a couple things real quick. You go, You're gonna have to I I think that this is gonna be the dude you want to go for. So because there always has to be one one of these criminal alien gang members that they're defending. I found your next guy, because clearly the guy, you know, the the guy from El Salvador wants the literal audio of his wife's phone call came out, and yeah, it lost

some of its luster. This guy though new Mester, well he's not new, but new story here ms thir team gang member. Uh, they're they're they're gonna lock him up for fifty five years just because he apparently killed four guys in New York. And then the guy in Virginia, his name is Anti Cristo. Anti Cristo. It literally is the Anti I feel like this is. And he's got all the face tattoos. You're gonna love him, so we probably need to go fund me for this guy. You

want to get that going. Uh. By the way, Ross, do you know how he murdered them? This is this is this is pure MS thirteen. Machete He killed four dudes in a park in New York and then take the same machete he went to Virginian's and killed the guy.

So I'd be very curious to see this because this is gonna be the big It should be the big story, right, five people dead, machete dude from El Salvador MS thirteen all in, but the anti Christ thing is a really really nice touch there, all right, A forty three let's see here, Oh there it goes? Okay, jump Mar from the Weather Channel. What's going on, sir?

the low in the mid sixties. We'll keep showers and thunderstorms in the forecast both for Tuesday and Wednesday, with highs in the midwupper seventies. Rain begins to taper off as we have through Thursday, with a mix of clouds and sun and a high warming up to eighty six degrees.

and seventy two points. President Trump aims to bring down the cost of prescription drugs. He says he will sign an executive order today that pharmaceutical companies charge Americans no more than what they charge in countries with the lowest drug prices. So pharmaceutical companies are poised to miss out on today's rally on Wall Street. Apple is updated a lot of its products in the last year or two.

That includes the iPhone sixteen and Series ten smartwatch, but it has been sometime since the company has introduced something really new. Bloomberg's Mark German says Apple has a lot of breakthroughs in the pipeline, but it won't start rolling them out until twenty twenty seven. A lot of people will actually be staying closer to home this summer. Triple A says we'll see in a couple of weeks that

people are increasingly choosing road trips over flights. It's projected the number of people driving this Memorial Day weekend will be up from last year. Gasoline prices are down from a year ago airline tickets are up. In Casey, the Marvel film Thunderbolts was the number one movie for a second weekend in a row. Studio estimates say it took in another thirty three million dollars. Sinners from Warner Brothers held on to second place with ticket sales of twenty one million dollars.

then of course there's all the racial stuff too. But you know, the ability to sit there and look at the person who took your family member, your friend, your loved one's life, and say that you forgive them like and you know, people of faith will approach it from that direction, even people have not of faith would approach it from just I can't hold onto this internalized stuff. So if I forgive them, then you know that helps me? Heal right, And I don't Unless you've been there, I

don't know what you do. Ross you think you could forgive somebody. Let's say, and the story here is a road rage incident, so this place, this took place in Arizona. A family lost their loved one because some lunatic got road rage and murdered their loved ones. Let's say God forbid that happen to like one of your siblings or family member. Do you think you could forgive the person who did it?

have been friends. Oh no, this is so I don't know. I don't know if you want to be guys, sounds like a lunatic. I believe in forgiveness and and any God who forgives, I always have and I will I always will. I don't know. Man, Like, if I'm not the family, they can make their own decisions. But having a recreation of the dead person doing the forgiving there, and hey, it's not even just morbid. I don't care

what the what the killer thinks. I don't care at all, But like, that's just so so creepy from a family standpoint. That's why, Like, have you seen where they can recreate If you have audio recordings of a dead loved one, you can create using the voice a chatbot. That's a thing that exists. Now that's some that's some weird sci fi stuff. So you know, if your cousin died or whatever, you're like, Man, I love I love talking to Ricky, right,

use the freedom checks guy anyway, forgot about that, Ricky? Uh? And you like talking to him and you got some voicemails or you have some videos that he uploaded to social media. You don't need that much, and you can create a chat bot.
