Wednesday-05-03-2023

Remember I remember, Oh so when he kept the music. That means I gotta start talking. Okay, oh it's only Wednesday. Well whatever, we'll do this thing. Cacoda Radio program, Good morning, we'll throat clearing. Just let you know I'm concentrating and busy and reading stuff and plugged in and just realize. There's a town in Texas called hold on, cut and Shoot Texas. There's a because of course there is. I love fun name.

I love Western names too. I know we got some doozies out here, don't get me wrong, but out west, I think just because they realize that, you know, from a coastal community standpoint right east west coast, they don't give a crap unless they're coming out to get a ski shalet or by giant mansions destroying property values in beautiful vistas where they would never want to live. You know, we can just kind of name stuff what everyone and

name it. So in Texas there's a town called cut and Shoot, Texas. How do I know? Because the dirt bag illegal immigrant accused of killing five people excuse me, four people. Five is the number of deportations he

had then we know of, was apprehended. No I'm sorry killing five people and then five deportations on a mess was apprehended by a Border Patrol tactical unit known as BORTACH late yesterday that according to San Jacinto San Jacinto County District Attorney Todd Dillon, So the authorities arrested a man believed to be Francisco or a Pesa in Cut and Shoot, Texas. He was hiding under laundry, according to the to the report, they say he was surrounded taken into custody without

incident, but was reportedly hiding under laundry. These are the very same agents, by the way, who went into that school in Uvaldi, Texas and actually handled business. So it sounds, you know, you're dealing a little legit badasses. Good for them. The majority of them are former military Special Force veterans or former special Forces. So these, you know, these are the jump out boys. Ross you know what a jump out boy is, which sounds kind of derogatory, but actually it's kind of a cool thing,

all right. So these are jump out boys are it's it's a term for although I don't know that these are qualified because these are more squat dudes, but jump out boys are the fugitive guys, right, And if you ever want to see some really good like body police videos, less bodycam more like bystander stuff, these are the guys that like drive around all Plaine clothes in an suv and they're like, hey, there's the guy who's wanted for,

you know, killing two people because he's going into like the the sheets to get a slushy or something. And these are the dudes that just roll out overwhelming force, we're grabbing you. But also the guys they're grabbing are not people who want to go quietly in many instances. So you know, in the world of law enforcement, pretty good gig just from a from an adventure

and excitement standpoint, not so much the people you gotta deal with. But but yeah, they put them on the case and they got them so um, which is strange because this should almost not even be an issue anymore. According to the White House yesterday, I did not realize this, and I'm just I'm really happy to report this because I'm sure it's a thousand percent true.

Apparently, Um, that whole border issue, it's down like ninety Yeah, they're doing a bang up job apparently over at the Biden administration, so um don't really got to worry about that, which is interesting because they're sending like fifteen hundred guardsmen to the border for some reason which I don't know.

I guess if if if the problems really down ninety percent according to we heard from the White House Press Secretary yesterday, I'm not abundantly clear why we need to send, you know, fifteen hundred members of the National Guard down to the border to handle stuff. But in fact I'm not the only one asking that question. Peter Doocey asked Missus Jean Pierre that yesterday after she made some

rather interesting acclaims. The border is secure, as the administration has said, then why would we need to send fifteen hundred active due to US troops down there? Because we need more work. We need more work needs to be done, Peter. We put forth a comprehensive immigration legislation and Congress of Republicans and Congress refuse to act. And so the President has used the tools that he has in front of him to prepare ahead of Title forty two lifting as

you know, that is happening in the next couple of days. And so we are putting a DHS Department of State is putting forth processes, processes to deal with the changes that are going to be ahead of us. Yeah, this goes hand in hand with the May eleventh official declaration that no longer do federal contractors or international visitors need to meet certain vaccine requirements. Title forty two was something that, even though the court kept it in play, was a

contingent on this emergency declaration that the government continued to maintain. So part and parcel of that is they're expecting a big old rush down there, big old rush, and so they're going to send members of the military there to essentially do a bunch of paperwork. But again, it flies in the face of claim that were being made yesterday. You said yesterday that when it comes to illegal migration, you've seen it come down by more than ninety percent. Where

did that number come from? It was I was speaking telling us the number is I hear you. I'm about to answer I'm about people. I'm about to answer you for a year or so, if you, if you, if the dramatics could come down just a little bit, if the dramatics could come down a little bit dramatic about asking a question about Okay, I'm going

to answer. So, I was speaking to the parole program. As you know, the President put in place a parole program to deal with to deal with certain countries on ways that we can limit illegal migration, and we have seen the data has shown as that it has gone down by more than ninety percent. That was what I was speaking to. No, we're gonna go, We're gonna move that we're movement peters. Oh well, I don't know where they're moving. They didn't actually move anywhere. So so they made a

claim. They made an open claim that there was a ninety percent reduction. They didn't quite qualify it. They didn't point out that it, according to her, actually speaks to an individual program which accounts for less than one one hundredth of a percent of cases during which people are able to actively enter the US. So he asked a question about, Hey, where'd you get this

number, because like you hear that number, that's a crazy number. And I don't care where you are in the media, if you're you're you know, you're one of these lap dogs there. Even you got to sit there and look like that while that dog that stares into the speaker there right for patroller or whatever it was, what the hell is that? So Deucey asked for clarification on it, and she's like, well, you need to tone down the dramatics. So things are, things are going great. So I'm

wondering, Oh, don't worry. Yes, people already sending me an email.

Yeah. No, Seriously, if they caught that dude and cut and shoot Texas when we went back in real hold on hit the wrong button there, they caught that dude cutting shoot, I'd love the border guys to come up here and go find this this guy who's accused of killing shersteputy ned Bird, who not only escaped prison apparently, but also did so and it wasn't noticed for like over a day, which we have some follow up on that story we're gonna get into as well, because I got a few questions.

I got a few questions on little update here, like this Piedmont Regional Jail and some issues they've been having apparently going back to last year, which I don't run a jail, but I feel like are the kind of issues that would reach priority status. And if you don't know this story, I think I gave it a tease yesterday. I never really went over all of it. The individual are tuomer In Sotelo Soteo, who's charged with murdering Wake County

Deputy ned Byrd. Apparently just he and another dude just rolled out of this prison up there in Virginia serving time on federal drug charges. This other guy, what was his name, Bruce Callahan. So yeah, we'll get into it, but we'll hear from Jerry Townsend is superintendent of the jail as to how they may have gotten out. There's a thousand questions here though. Also, if he's accused of murdering a sheriff's deputy in Wake County, what's he

doing up in Virginia? Why don't we have this cat here? So we'll touch on that story. Lots to get into here on your Wednesday, Plus, Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson he'll join us, and we got a lot to talk about. If they're getting ready to pass literally a one of the largest reformation of school funding in North Carolina, basically money following students. We're gonna have to get into the details there because there's some like sliding scale stuff based

on income. It's actually a very progressive model and I'm curious to pick his brain. So we'll get into that much more. Coming up here on the k c O Day Radio program, a new decade on the calendar and celebrating ten years on the air. This is one oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle and News Talk WPTI in the Triad. All right, good morning, six twenty four here on the KCODA Radio program. I think we've all

been there, right, trying to do your job. Unfortunately you're dealing with some equipment issue or some software issues, something along those lines, and it is hampering your ability to do what you need to do. You know, we a little tongue in cheek. We joke around here every now and then. The server room sounds like there's an F sixteen engine going in there, or computer decides that it doesn't want to compute, but you truck through.

And you know, especially coming out of excuse me, coming out of the COVID era, sometimes people had to adapt just you know, things were different

and everybody's got a different process. We You know, if you listen to the show, you probably heard us use the term trouble ticket, right, So if something's not working well, we'll sometimes say it on the air, oh better put a trouble ticket in and depending on what it is, you may a bypass that, and you may go straight to the source, whether you have an engineer, a higher up something along those lines, and you kind of have to evaluate what it is that's broken, right, So,

I mean, in the grand scheme of things, if the kurig's not working, that's not mission critical round here. Oh theough. Maybe Ross would tell you it is because he's got to do his ice hack or whatever. But I like, none of the microphones are working. Arguably that's a much bigger problem. I just point this out because I'm reading this article about the escape of this suspect in the murder of Deputy Bird from this Piedmont Regional Jail,

which is in southern Virginia, and it's actually pretty crazy. Like one, the escape reportedly took place at one eighteen on Sunday morning, and the other suspect who is accused of escaping, actually didn't leave until eleven thirty Sunday, twenty two hours later, and the jail folk didn't notice he was gone until three nineteen am on Monday. So one escape happens twenty two hours later, second escape happens, nobody notices either or gone until twenty six hours after the

first escape see twenty seven Almost how the hell does that happen? Maybe I don't understand jail. Don't you do headcounts and stuff like that. But there was a bigger issue. Or maybe it was just a really good dummy. Alfonso Marin Soteo, who has described as five foot six inches tall, hundred and fifty pounds, last reporter wearing a great sweatshirt sweatpants. Surveillance video shows him driving away from the property in a Mustang. So obviously dudes got some

help. So how did he escape? Well, this gets into the equipment issue. Remember how I mentioned that you know, the show can probably go on if the kyig is not working in the break room, but you know the microphones aren't working, that's a bigger problem. Well, apparently there was a big old problem with this particular facility two in particular. Wait till you hear what they are. We'll get into that coming up right after the news

hang on show. After the show is on the iHeartRadio app searts Casey O Day for the podcast on the iHeartRadio app. Alrighty, good morning, six thirty five. Why was this guy being held in Virginia? Well, he's being held in Virginia, I guess based on some some drug charges there. And it frustrates me as well. That being said, oh we might have to put a trouble ticket in, don't or it's not mission critical. Um. But when you say being held, I guess people just assume if you're

being held in the jail, there is some effort at security. So yeah, now I'm I'm extremely frustrated with this. Now Here's why one. Let me ask you a question. I know we got some of you out there that work in this particular field, right, you work in the in in um. You maybe you work for one of the jails, or you have, or you work for the Sheriff's department or you have. And I have

family members who've worked in this capacity. I told you I couldn't get away with crap when I was a kid, and multiple family members in law enforcement. The deput Sheriff's deputy deputy US Marshall somebody worked not on the street side for the department, but worked actually as an administrator for one of the county lock up facilities in Wyoming. So um, So with that in mind, and I know some of y'all, y'all got some knowledge out there, and

you've got some crazy stories whenever we get into this stuff. And I I salute you, man, because folks who have an expectation of law and order and this is part of it, and the paying great in many instances, and there's politics like everything else. And of course you're sitting around and you're you know, you're doing this. I will say nine to five because in

many cases it's like mandatory overtime. But you're going in, you're doing your shift, and you're having to deal with folks who will throw feces at you, who get to sit around all day figuring out how to just how to screw with you. I have a friend of mine actually who is he's now retired, but he worked as a federal in the federal prison system for years. And you get a few beers in that. Dude, I don't envy it. That being said, I fail to understand how you don't notice two

prisoners gone, one of which was gone for twenty seven hours. Who are not people working on like an honor farm, right, Not a guy who's doing a stretch for you know, his third dui or something or kite and checks or whatever. And I got got himself a year in a day, and now he's doing that. You know, this is a guy who's on serious drug charges being held in the in one instance, and another dude is being held in the suspected murder of a law enforcement officer. I don't know

how somebody has gone for over a day before you notice. But also this particular facility apparently had an equipment issue going back to December of twenty twenty two, when people who worked in the facility say that they started running into issues with the security doors and the locks. That's rights as recently as January.

According to the Piedmont Regional Jail Authority Board, it was noted that the facility needed to replace locks in four of the po odds, including the pod that housed our murder suspect here, saying that the locks would fail they were easy to manipulate. Eight of the cell doors were not digitally basically, we're not they had a locking system but instead required manual locking. And even then the locks were not working. And I don't know in you know, in the

peck and order of equipment not working in a jail facility. But that's terrifying to me because I feel like that's job number one right in the world of equipment, right, if I had to rank stuff, because I you know, stuff breaks, whatever, you got to fix it. So, like one of the showerheads is leaking, all right, that's going to be very

low on the totem pole. I'm just I'm trying to think of innocuous stuff, you know, stuff that's not But when you tell me that the locks don't work and you haven't addressed it since January, the hell are you doing? How does that happen? Or maybe this level of disrepair is something that just happens. That's why I want to hear from those of you who work in corrections eight eight, eight, nine, three four seven eight seventy four, because that's terrifying to me. How do you how do you have a

jail or the lockstone? Where isn't that job number one? Job number two? Doing a head count? How many times a day do you do a head count? How do you find yourself in a situation where you don't do a headcount for at least twenty seven hours to determine an inmate is missing? None of this makes sense. In February, the board discussed to plan to replace the locks but in March the board noted as part of their consent agenda

that the replacements had not taken place. Instead, they were negotiating with a I guess an outside company. You tell me you don't have a chain and a padlock to uh, you know, as it temporary something. However, the company who reportedly was being negotiated with, Willow Products Company tells WRAL the company was never contacted for any recent work at the jail. It's like nobody

did anything. Quite frankly, if there's somebody who's supposed to do all this and just said, you know, effort, I'm not, I'm not, that person should probably have a certain amount of liability if something happens. What if they track one of these dirt bags down and they're like, yeah, you'll never take me alive, copper and another police officer gets killed or injured

or or a member of the public. Record show the jail like many operates on about let's see here, they're understaffed, basically showing twenty four security officer vacancies on average per month over the last six months. Still, job number one is the prisoner here. Job number two is that door locked. I can't think of anything more basic than that. All right, let me grab a let me grab a call here, Kevin, what's up. Yeah, I'm driving down onto Charlotte and my trucks. I gotta make it kind of

quick. It was just on the news that his sister was arrested Nywait County for providing the getaway vehicle and cash and his family members met him in the parking lot. Right. I guess they's gone. You discussed, you know, when he goes down to Mexico and comes back, what his new name is going to be? Where to pick him off at? Yeah? This is this thing's all sorts of messed up, man, all sorts of messed up. But yeah, no, obviously he had help on the outside.

Yes, the sister was arrested, but you know, frankly, what are they going to do to her? But where they're gonna put her in that lock up facility? She apparently should just walk out, So I shouldn't laugh about it, but holy crap, man. All right, thanks for the call, Kevin, appreciate it. Kevin's Kevin's doing some driving this morning on his way to Charlotte. Donna, what's up, Good morning, casey morning. He wasn't isn't that the same prison where Whitey Balter got beaten to death?

Didn't they transferred him. They've had problems there since then. Well, and I don't want to all right, so Whitey Bulger's a dirt bag of the highest order. That being said, Look, I don't want to make light of a prisoner getting beat to death. That being said, that's something that you know, is an unfortunate part of the prison experience, and that's something that folks have to deal with. And ironically, when something like that

happens. They just had some rapper who was beat to death in a prison in California, and you know, heads are rolling over that. And that's a part of the job, right you have to provide for the security of incarcerated individuals. But here apparently if they feel that they're threatening, the can just walk out of the prison. So yeah, I just want to note that the thing about Whitey Bulger was that they knew five hours the murderer knew

five hours before he showed up that he was showing up. I mean, you know, maybe somebody turned their back so that he couldn't drop a dime on mule and call me and those guys I know that's a whole other subject. But it was that prison that you know he died in, so well, I mean I would say this, um there, there is the very conspiratorial version of that. There's also the you know, some some guard here's that whitey Bulgers come in and tells another guard the prisoner over hears. I

mean that would be big news that somebody famous is coming over there. But yeah, I don't know um exact anyway, seems like they obviously have a problem there, Yeah, a little bit, all right, Donna, thanks for the Yeah, how does that? How does that happen? Somebody in corrections eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seventy four. I can't figure out what I'm more baffled by, uh, problems with the locks. It sounds like they work, sometimes they don't. But even when they don't,

there you can manipulate them, I guess is the issue. And of course, you know prisoners are sitting around they got twenty four seven to figure out how to screw with stuff, manipulate things, make weapons, so you gotta be on your toes. But maybe I'm more baffled about how you don't notice a high how you don't notice a prisoner that's charged with something like that. How you don't notice that that individual's gone for twenty seven hours. That's what

I can't wrap my head around this morning, Shannon, what's up? I was just calling his I actually used to be an officer here in the Raleigh area, and you'd be surprised how many people you would would arrest that knew they were going to get deported and they their family literally had a go bag waiting for them that they'd be able to take with them, so that way when they get sent back over, they'd have no issues, come back over

and have money everything they need. The whole thing as a joke on our you know, how we deal with the people who should not be here. So we've got deportation bugout bags. Huh yeah, pretty much. And it's it's ridiculous. And they're allowed to take it with them because you can take something to jail. They just hold on to it in that way when you get off the bus say hey, don't come back. You can just turn

around and walk that in. Oh well, good, well I heard it's down ninety percent, so it's okay, Shannon, Oh all right, all right, thanks for the call. I don't want to. I mean, I have to be partially glib about this because that's just my attitude. But the story's crazy and and maybe that's how maybe maybe our our lock up facilities are jails. I'm specially interested in um um in our state prisons around here, maybe they're holding on by a string, you know, um, by

a thread and of prayer. I know that we've had some funding questions, some funding issues, some staffing issues, but um, that's that's terrifying because we got some bad, bad folks under lock and key. But if that lock and keys hanging off a sleeping jail guard's waist and you can manipulate it with a broom, which is the like the image that comes into my brain. Ah. I don't know how to deal with that. I mean, obviously this is in Virginia, but still, all right, six forty eight

k c o DA radio program. Hang on this ten years and there's twice an hour a smart talk all day WUPTI in the Triad and one oh six one FM talk in the Triangle. All right, six fifty four, good morning, it is the KCODA radio program. No, uh, it's wait. There's somebody who works in collections called did I maybe it's early. It's early, man. No, I was asking for people who worked in corrections. Did I say maybe I said collections. I don't know, but no,

I just I just maybe I don't have an understanding of it. I don't know. I guess I was under the impression that there was an effort made throughout the day to determine if the right number of prisoners continue to be in a facility. Yeah, I've watched, uh, you know, I've watched enough lock up and obviously it's a that's a different facility than a regional jail when you when you're into the prison part of it. Um, but you know, they they'll at some point they'll talk about headcounts, things like

that. But I don't know. I just I assume that if you could be gone for twenty seven hours before somebody notices, that's an unusual setting. So that was that was the question we were asking. So if you work in corrections, not collections, so which, Yeah, it has to be another thankless job because nobody wants to talk to you, all right, Um, not necessarily on the show, but you know what I mean, calling

people because they own money, all right. A few other things um, and we'll get into a lot of this discussion coming up in the third hour with Lieutenant Governor where he'll join us. Eight oh five. The House Health Committee yesterday voted to approve a bill that would ban teens from receiving gender affirming surgery even with the parent's consent. House Bill eight o eight, known as the Youth Health Protection Act, is just one of several before the legislature.

You know, it's very interesting and I other people notice this. I saw RL's coverage of this stuff. Like in one of the stories they did about some of these bills having to do with children and gender affirming surgery, they were like listing. They included a list of companies who previously had decided to involve themselves in North Carolina issues during HB two. Like it was a really handy list for people who want to call and you know, go activist demanding

companies involved themselves in the current discussion. But that was pretty interesting. Plus there was another story and I got to pull it up from yesterday where I've never seen a news agency decide that they need to go in and essentially make the case for somebody in a in a legal story. Well, we'll pull that out as we head into the next hour. But yeah, the activism

is strong, man. And even though the committee held a public hearing that didn't stop a group of just regular Joe blows, Jane blows and they blows, and the Rainbow Hair brigame showed up. And even though there's a public hearing where their voices could be heard, that was not good enough. Nope, nope, nope. They decided to disrupt the proceedings like a bunch of children. Details on that coming up. Hang out, all right, good morning. It is seven o six here on the Cacoda Radio program. I'll

renumber two. Good lord. An Arkansas woman will face charges after authorities say that she was selling buckets of human body parts. Why buckets? What? I don't one, I don't understand why people are buying human body parts. I have some questions there, But what's with the bucket thing? Because it's like random parts. Somehow that makes less sense to me than if you just said that somebody was buying I don't know, a human skull or something.

Right, we've seen those stories. You know, somebody's literally selling like stuff out of graveyards, I mean, really twisted crap. Don't get me wrong, but who's like, you know what I need? I need a bucket of random human body parts. Thirty nine year old Candice Scott. Well, that's a nice mug shot. Holy crap, Holy, I'm gonna send this to roz Ros. I'm gonna send you this. I want to remind you this is a thirty nine year old woman who sells buckets of human body parts.

My question is, when you look at this mug shot, does that look like somebody who sells bucket of human body parts? All right, hold on, come in your way in a moment. Sorry, this was in the prep packet. I just saw this story. I think when this story first happened, now they're going to court and they arrested somebody else. I think we might have mentioned this if you saw that person on the street and you were in need of human body parts, like, would you I didn't

show up. I love our email there. I emailed it, I didn't text it, so all right, let me know when it shows up. I guess my question would be, like, let's say you're jones in for a bucket of human body parts and you have to profile right because you're new to the area. You don't know who the body parts dealer is in that area. I feel like that's somebody that you might ask if they sell human bucket of human body parts. Also, is it by weight or is it

kind of a grab bag situation? Like, um, guys, you buy like the you know, like trading cards like baseball cards and stuff. You can get these like packs where they have a bunch of different ones in there, but they're different levels. Go to Walmart they sell those things. I mean, this dude is a victim obviously of h that's a woman. Oh, it's a woman. Wow, Wow, a lovely young lady. Yes,

is a victim of the economy. And you know when I was gonna say the lizard person at the sideshow at the fair, you know when that booth goes out, you can't do that job anymore. Because I don't know you can't do that. I'm gonna sell a suit case of body parts bucket bucket of body parts. Yeah, but right like, if you're in a

room and you're like, who sells body parts in here? I assume I don't even know the rest of the room looks like, I feel like that's gonna be the first person I ask right there selling him on Facebook Marketplace too. By the way, I wondered what they selling there. I've never bought anything, anybody you ever bought anything off Facebook market You can buy everything off there. Yeah. Yeah, it's it's a new Craigslist. Really like.

People don't use that anymore, use Facebook Marketplace. I know a guy who makes like tons of money to selling like you know, random crap. Oh yeah, no, straight up, man, straight way. There was a there was a dude. There was a dude who when I was growing up, he was my buddy's dad and his name was Craig. Craig didn't really have a gig. Craig just would go buy stuff and then resell it.

And I guess he made decent money doing it. But if he wanted something, he was he'd be the guy who tell you where he could get it. But he would go, I mean, because he'd drive all around and a lot of what he was selling was like parts, car parts and stuff.

So he'd go to like picking lots and like the Dakotas and whatnot, Montana whatever, And he got into the online selling of that stuff too, and a lot there's a lot of stuff automotive stuff that people want to buy from Mountain, Wyoming that area because we don't use salt on the roads out there, so people want unrusted stuff and that's his gig. But I mean, he would just sell random crap. But if you wanted to know where

to get something, not just automotive stuff, you just ask him. So but most of the day he'd sit at home and like he would do business in that way. But also he had like a CB what was his handle, I think it was party Maker or something, and like he would do that and then like he would conduct business on his cbe. It was the most country thing ever man because he had like truck drivers that had passed through

the area had buy stuff off. I don't know. He probably was running a meth empire and I just never I never knew, but so yeah, I get it. But no, that looks like somebody who sells body parts. That's crazy, are right? He'll he'll retweet that story a little bit. He's screening some phone calls. All right, A few other things we'll get into this. Oh wait, hold on, I do have one jail

email. Let's see here. Maybe you get a discount if you buy by the by, I guess, but maybe some people like the you know, the unboxing that's like a whole category on YouTube, right, people buy those Amazon return boxes and then they make YouTube videos. All right, let's see what's inside. I mean maybe this is just a version of that. In case you're wondering they were stealing them from a mortuary? Is what the what? What is being alleged here? All right? Few emails on this on

this jail stuff. One to clarify, this is not the facility where Whitey Bulger met his end. In fact, this particular facility, and it also explains whether being held there the jail in question. According to one of our emailers who works in corrections but didn't want to call in understandable, So that particular facility is contracted by the US Marshall Service to hold federal detainees, not

the facility or Whitey Bulger was killed that was in West Virginia. That being said, there were many errors made by jail staff and people will most likely be fired. Yeah, I mean, somebody is responsible for something here. Also, I formerly worked in corrections at the county level. We did head count three times a shift, and yeah, broken locks were a huge deal. Now do you mean a huge deal? Like it happened all the time, or if a lock was broken, everything else stopped till you got it

fixed. So I don't I don't know what that sentence means. It's common for one county to rent spat Oh no, no, I know that. Yeah, yeah yeah. As a jailer, though, I didn't know what most of the inmates were charged with, especially when it came to transfer inmates, unless they were in a PC pot of those guys rape his child, oh, protective custody. Yeah, though it makes sense. I'm sure they'll tell you. I bet some of them even didn't do it. Just you

know they'll tell you that too. The whole thing's bonkers. I mean, innocent will proven guilty. I understand that. But if this dude wants to, uh, you'll never take me alive, and they're like, all right, terms acceptable. Probably won't break my heart. So we'll see. All right, we got some of the craziest audio for you. I can't wait to get into this. I'm gonna play it for you next. People are amazing to me, and you know, some people are questioning whether this video

is real. I think it is. This woman would have to be a phenomenal actress, and I think they're questioning it because it's so over the top. So basically, and we'll play this audio when we come back. It's a dude. He's got his little daughter there. She's she's too. You could kind of hear her in the background. She's two and she's she's too,

and she's just being a little happy to year old little girl. When all of a sudden, neighbor neighbor lady decides that she just can't tolerate what she's noticed, so she decides she is going to go lecture this two year old's father. Little girls right there just you know, being a happy little two year old and woke neighbor lady can't take it anymore and decides that she has to inject her opinion. It is absolutely crazy when you just just the

concept that these people exist. All right, eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four quick call and then we'll take a break, come back with the audio. Yes, Chuck, what's up? Hello Chuck? Yeah, hey, sir, good yeah, uh well, um, we're asking about the lot of thing there. I'll tell you that's the priority as far as the press. So that's so is uh yeah, been right at the top that leak stand toilet. Yeah, so I don't know what to say.

And the problem is the people that baby sit the inmates, the CEOs aren't doing their jobs and there's probably only twenty percent of them that are supposed to be employed employed. That's the problem is that there's no staff. Yeah. No, they mentioned that in the story that there's a lot of openings at this particular facility. So that's because the state doesn't care, and they're letting this go on and go on, and it's just gonna get worse.

Letting them out isn't going to help anything. You know, when you're a murder suspect in the depth of a sheriff's deputy, you know you're probably not making bail anyway. So well no, but I mean, it's just the way society is going. They're like, well, we don't want to pay people a babysit them, so we'll just let them go early. And it's unacceptable, to be honest with you, seeing it from the inside. And

the problem is also the wardens. They treat people like crap. I'm no, the wardens in the administration, you know, I'm with you one hundred percent. I think that you know, one of these discussions we have that has to go hand in hand with if we're going to get serious about law and order and expectations that people, you know, some guy who's getting arrested

for his seventy fifth shoplifting thing. Right, if we're going to commit to holding these folks so they're not out there continuing to commit crimes, we have to be very clear that we're going to fund it. There needs to be accountability in the way that we fund it. But you know, we have to prioritize that in public safety, I believe is something that we should prioritize. So absolutely, it's just bonkers, man. All Right, thanks for the call, sir, do appreciate it. Have yourself a good one.

And when we come back, this insane interaction between this father and busybody neighbor lady, just wait for it. Hang on oh six one FM Talk and w PTI, two stations driving the best in talk. This is Casey O Day and Carolina's Morning News. All right, seven twenty five here on the Cacoda Radio program. All Right, So I saw this video and I saw

the debate in the video. It's it's crazy what you see transpiring. You see a woman go up to this dude, he's got his two year old daughter, and she is She's very upset because the little girl is She's noticed a little girl wears pink a lot, and so she starts into this whole diatribe about, you know, gendering children before they've figured out what gender they are, and it's all the woke, insane crap that in this day and age, you could absolutely believe it is true. That's what makes it so

tough to figure out whether you think it's fake or real. I'm up in the air. Ross is on team fake. Let me play it for you or not. I'm not going to play all of it, but let me let me dive into some of it so you can hear what, you know, what's kind of going on here. Hey, so you've come to my house to complain about my baby wearing I was just asking, really, why you keep putting her in pink and not other colors. Well, traditionally girls often wear pink. Well, I think you'll fine. That was back in

the day. I don't think it's today. I think you can wear any color you want now one you can. She she she doesn't. She has over like clothes as well. But her very color is pink. Well, I've only ever seen her in pink, and I think that's not allowing her to have freedom of what freedom wants to be. She's a baby, baby, she's baby, she's too she looks a lot older than that to me.

But anyway, what's any of your concern. Well, it's my concern because I believe that the world has got better since we've got all this fluidity with genders and different types of genders. Now, I think by dressing someone in pink, if she doesn't want to be a girl on shoulder, she wants to be as or transgender or whatever, the should have been dressed in pink and you would have confused her. So I think it's nicer to dress people in all different colors. I mean, she looked beautifully in yellow,

wouldn't she. I hadn't seen she was, Sorry, But she's got pink trousers on with rainbows on. Now. I do like the rainbow. I definitely like the rainbows on her trousers. Now that's good. Okay, okay, okay. Firstly, yeah, you're wearing pink glasses again. I think you'll find these are move Are you color blind move. All right, all right, first you have to admit that that could be real, just in the sense that that positive that that person could absolutely exist in this environment.

However, um ros is on team not real because what you think the audios edited. I think it's too scripted, it's too perfect. That's not how people talk. And it's the audio editing. There's several times in the video where they start you could you get there's slight edits where they start talking and saying their sentences over again. To me, it's completely fake. Maybe maybe it's just because they're British Delivery and every yeah, but I mean it's it

just seems fake. All right, well, I look, i'd encourage you to check it out. I mean, yeah, that person could exist. I wouldn't put it past somebody these days, but some people don't. Think. It's your day Smarter and celebrating ten years of keeping you Better informed one oh six one FM Talk and News Talk nine five WPTI more with Casey starts

now, man, they are panicking over there at Anaheizer buish Man. If you saw the members once again for the weekending, I believe the twenty second so we're getting data you know, obviously a couple of weeks down the road went from a twenty one percent reduction for the weekending the fifteenth now twenty six percent down in sales, and the human rights camp Pain has now come out, and uh, initially they said that bud Light needs to go all in

on this and you know, declare their support for Dylan mulvaney. And now when they didn't do it immediately, already they're accusing bud Light of being transphobic. So so what does bud Light do. They just put out another new commercial. In the commercial, you got a bunch of country music fans. They're at a U looks like one of those outdoor country music festivals, sitting around cowboys, cowgirls, country folks, just good old friends just having themselves

some bud Light. It's that perfect time of the evening when you know, the sun's just going down and blasting in the background and a little bit of chicken black brown night just right, and the radio just targeting that base. Man. I don't know if it's gonna work. You know, this is what it is. One of those things for business school for years to come. Well, if I guess if business school was honest, right, because the way that they'll teach at any university setting is bud Light didn't come out.

They'll rewrite it and they'll say that bud Light's sales numbers were the result of them not being one hundred percent all in on diversity, equity and inclusion, when in reality, it's just this is one on one how to how to crap all over the people. You don't really even have to market to, right if you just don't do anything, you just keep selling your beerent of those folks will stick around. They're loyal. You gotta do something to

cause this, and that's what they did. So we got the crazy Clydesdale horse ads with all the America imagery, and now we got the country Music Festival and I ain't gonna dig you out of a hole. Man ain't gonna work, all right, a few other things to get to. Oh, by the way, the crab dudes back. I didn't realize this was a thing previously, all right, So I don't know who, I don't know what you think you're accomplishing here, But it's not the first time it's happened.

Somebody's painting political messages on the underside of crabs down in the Tampa area. You're gonna a picture of one. I don't know if this is one of the new because apparently this happened in twenty sixteen as well and twenty eight I guess this is the This is some really really poor pack group. I

guess they don't they don't have money for political advertising. Like in the picture, I'm looking at this crab, and on the underside of this crab, so they catch the crab, they write in sharpie on the bottom of the crab and apparently throw it back in there, which hardly seems effective because really, your message is going to be targeted. What whoever catches the crab. Right on the bottom of this crab, it reads Hillary is a hold on. I'm gonna need the bleeping noise. Hillary is a line B word.

Some guy caught. Well, I guess they took a picture of and posted online, so I guess maybe that's how he gets your message out there. So you know, the crab's just wiggling around because it's a crab, that's what they do. But on the underside it's a billboard and it says Hillary's

align word. So I can get far more effective animals too. You know, write words on if you want to maximize the view or you know, the viewing of it, Like that stray dog that runs around the neighborhood everyone knows, or cat or whatever, right, that would be more effective some dude's horse that's uh, you know, in a in an enclosure next to a highway. I'm not, by the way, don't qu out vandalizing animals.

This is a thought exercise, okay, But I guess if you got it like a little horse sweater that said it, I mean, the horse ain't gonna know if you're an animal lover and whoop this bud bar's touchy today. Man, But what's going on there? I mean, is the crab wrong though? I mean no, I mean crab has a good point and is delicious by the way, in butter maybe that's maybe the crab did it

because he's like, I don't know. Maybe the person who catches me is you know it, will agree and be like, you know what, I'm not gonna eat? You know, I could see that well self preservation thing there. There's craziness all right. Speaking of craziness, the Youth Health Protection Act House Bill eight OWA went through a committee yesterday. It did pass through the House Health Committee in the North Carolina a General Assembly, and uh it

is targeting, uh, the gender affirming surgery for minors. Now, the one that they passed would would disallow it even with parental consent. I don't know if they're going to get that through. We'll see. Um it would also block the use of state funds for gender transition related medical care. I'm

okay with that. I think that they have decided to force this issue that that that is um, you know, basic medical care, when in reality, the science surrounding all of you know, everything having to do with gender dysphoria and all the where they just one day decided, well, no longer is there a mental health component, and the only way to treat this is to you know, basically acquiesce in that instance, I don't know the taxpayers

need to be paying for that. Sorry. People will go, well, this is just the same as you know, getting some you know, getting a Z pack and you're on Medicaid. No, No, it's not the whole the whole thing, the whole transition within the medical community and the stark politicalization of it should be a red flag on this stuff. And again we're talking about taxpayer dollars. I personally don't have a price. If you're if you're an adult and you want to go do this, more power to you

do your thing. Seriously, I don't care that beings now you're talking about taxpayer dollars. I'm allowed to weigh in in the sense that I think the whole process has been manipulated when he started on the kid's side of this, where even even to discuss any of it could end in your own termination. You see, they fired that that the president of Thomas Jefferson University up in Philadelphia because he liked the tweet talking about mr NA vaccines being touted as wildly

effective. However, the science now later down the road shows that that that wasn't necessarily the case. And by the way, he also said he thought liking was how you bookmark stuff like he doesn't even show that he has a fundamental understanding. The reason he said he bookmarked it is he wanted to do research. And oh, by the way, not only is he the president or the former president of the university, he himself is he himself is a doctor. Yeah, so here's a guy who one doesn't sound very savvy on

the social media two literally is in the medical field. And three like to tweet. I liked a few tweets, But in that case, like the tweet that said something that is accurate, the efficacy of the mRNA vaccines is different from how it was initially positioned. That's true, that's not disputable. That doesn't mean you can't be of the opinion that there's still a good medical

decision. But this dude's a veteran physician, right if if anybody who wants to do further inquiry could be in a position to do it, here we go and they just ram this guy. He's out all right eight eight, eight nine, three four seven, eight seventy four, seven forty five. Race agent from the Weather Channel. You standing by it? Oh boil boil boy? What a day? What a day? Yeah? Well, I mean if you didn't have anything, you would have nothing to talk about,

correct. I just it's I find it interesting because it's like, so now I'm not picking on older people, but season seasoned citizens who don't fully understand how social media works are getting a boot, right. It's like, hold on, so we're canceling. We're canceling somebody who doesn't understand technology that they might be new to. Oh yeah, everyone, I like to cancel it and I'm kind of familiar with it. Listen, it's it's a place that

some of us really don't want to be. Um, yeah, it's it is, but it isn't like right because sometimes you get to ster a craft that you wouldn't have seen and your jaw just drops. But but yeah, look at you, look at the people who will invest hours of their day getting into arguments on it, and I just don't understand that. So no, I don't chains go on forever. And hey, you might even learn a few things too from some of those hacks you could see on the TikTok

and all that that people have learned that there's one of them. I'm going to try, but i'll see if it works first. And well no, well, so so you know the area rugs, the aerosol candle, light

yourself on fire? Is that's no, there's actually the two of them ones that when your area rug has a corner that's turned up and you can't get it to stay down, or the guy said, we'll put ice on that corner and then you know, put something flat on top of that corner of the rug and then let the ice melt and when it's done, the corner flattens out and it stays flattened out. So that was one of them. I want to see if that works because it's got a couple of corners turned

up. And the second one was to use a dryer sheet and your ceiling fans to keep the dust off them. So I guess it puts a little coating on them that resists the dust from sticking onto your ceiling fan too. So I definitely want to try that because some of the ceiling fans of my house have a small city on them. So you ever see the no way dude? No, oh yeah, yea yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, and then he goes and tries it. Yeah yeah, all right, he's funny, he's got to catch phrase, but as the effort in it.

So anyway, yeah, well no way dude, No, definitely don't want. The problem is you get people that also put out fake tips, like when the iPhone without the area without the headphone sport came out, like some guy did a really really nicely produced video, look like it was from Apple and how to drill a hole in the side of your phone. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yep. I think I recall that I don't know.

Yeah, there's a bunch of out there. I like the game ones where you try to not guess, Like the guy's writing on the mirror and he's trying to guess the number. He goes if you thought for the holiday, you say, and I beat him a couple of times. So that was cool anyway, Um, as you can tell it, I'm much more to talk about. I mean, weatherwise, great, Yeah, yeah, I mean I gotta do something here. We got a little cloud this morning.

Other than that breezy today again, we'll lose this stubborn in though eventually mid sixties tonight, load of bit forties to the west, probably west of

the Trya. Even there might be some patchy frost tomorrow morning, but then the recovery we'll continue with temperatures sunshine near seventy, so on either side of seventy, depending on where you are Tomorrow, then partly sunny, low seventies Friday, with some shower Saturday, dry Sunday, and starting Sunday, we could have three or four nice days coming in as we're gonna get back close

to and maybe above eighty degrees early next week. Casey, so not a bunch of rain, even though we do mention some showers fridnight to Saturday at a warming trend. That's the good news. After Tuesday next week may start getting a little bit unsettled. But I don't want to get too far ahead of us here. Okay, thank you, Syb'll talk in an hour,

appreciate it and come back. I'll finish my thought because we do some audio of what the legislatures up to. That'll set us up for our chat with Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson, will be happening at eight oh five, So lots coming up. Hang on celebrating ten years of keeping you connected. This is ninety four five WPTI Triad and one on six one FM Talk in the Triangle.

So I was looking at a news story on the writers strike day one, and they have a video here in their interview, and I'm like, this dude looks familiar, and then I realized it's a do you know who Adam Conover is? So he did a video series. I think it started on College Humor, and so it's him holding a picket sign and he's his thing was. Adam explains everything and then they parlated into a show. But he's also a giant moonbat, and he's dishonest, like there's a there's whole

accounts that are just they just debunk his explain Adam explains everything segments. You know. He's basically a more entertainment driven version of these moonbat fact checkers. He says, we're fighting to stop the streamers in the studios from turning writing into a career, from a career into a gig job. They're trying to take away our jobs and employ us one day a week like we're uber drivers.

We're fighting for fairness. Well, what are you writing? I mean, if you're writing a commercial, do you need more than a day? I mean, And I don't know. If you're writing for a show that's on every week, then you know you look like SNL. They there's plenty of behind the scenes stuff. If you're writing a script for a movie, there's gonna be a certain number of days and then you're not writing it. So I don't know what the hell that means. But also the fact that

they chose to talk to you, I don't care anymore. Uh, mostly because you know, the stuff that you write is so easily debunkable in so many instances, I saw something yesterday that completely shocked me. Did you see Whoopie Goldberg on the View talking about how the writers were on strike and the show wasn't gonna be as funny? Yeah? Were you completely shocked to learn they had writers? They like, it's like, who is the who's the

comedian who did the whole bit about how there's writers for phishing shows. I can't remember who did that thing. It's like, yeah, I was watching the phishing then they had writers and he does like the version of the guy writing it. I can't remember who the comedian does that? But what's that? It's just so funny? Man, It's like, wait, so wait, those weren't your bad original ideas? You're reading somebody else's bad and you

thought it was funny. Well, the jokes, I mean, they're just writing the jokes obviously, so stupid and the thing doesn't make sense, like the SNL thing, like, just do a show, just ad lib you don't have to stop the show. You're all very talented, you know, supposedly very talented comedians, very quick witted. Right, Just how about a show of just improv and ad lib like who whose line is it? Anyway?

That'd be awesome. Well, a lot of those comedy too. If you look at like I was just pointing the writer's room there on SNL, you've seen those behind the scenes. Most of them are the cast members right right? So are you for yourself or at least it used to be. I don't know if it still is. Yeah, I don't know, but yeah, I mean, there you go, Man, get after it. All right, let me play the audio because I gotta play this audio. So there was actually an input session on this h this whole bill about you

know, children in gender affirming care. It literally was right there adjacent to it. But instead the Rainbow Hair Brigade showed up and decided, well, can't have this going on. So they start with the tantrum. Man, all right, here we go, I mean the button bar, Here we go. They're screaming, let us speak ahead of a public input session. You're killing LEA should not be here right now. So much for him. I should not be here right now. I just feel like that person's Joe

Ross. You watched the video where they killed where they murdering a child in the video. I didn't see it. It must have been off camera. Oh wow, Well that's you know, that's how they get you. But there's a public it's like going to the you go to Harris Teat all right, and you go up to the Delhi cage. You're like, cut my meat, cut my meat. As the person is walking up to literally ask you what you want as Toddler's man. But they got their video and they

feel like they made a difference. All right, lieutena governor joins us next. Hang on, all right, good morning everybody, and welcome happy Wednesday. It is our number three here on the case O Day Radio program. And boy, oh boy, do we have a laundry list of items to get to with our next guests. He is Lieutenant Governor of the great State of North Carolina, Mark Robinson, joining us this morning. How are you doing, sir? I'm good. How are you? I'm pretty good.

Um. I can't imagine trying to do my job with rainbow haired brigade screaming at me. But yesterday the House Health Committee there Mark was passing through a bill that would would limit in a couple instances, basically gender transformation services for minors, as well as public dollars being spent to accomplish gender transition. There is literally a public input session where folks can speak their peace on this,

and there's a screaming mob of people acting like toddlers there. Mark what I understand that they get the press and Ril gets to, you know, put the video out and write articles about this stuff. But I fail to recognize what any of this accomplishes. And we've seen it now, not just with spectators but also lawmakers like in Montana and Tennessee and everywhere else. Have they

accomplished anything with this yet? I mean that I don't know, Tracy, but I you know, I'm just I am I really struggle with this concept. I'm not sure who these human beings are who believe that minor children should beginning transgender surgery? Who are these people who are There's a how is that normal? In a normal How is that normal amongst any human beings? You know? That is the one thing I am not going along with this. We are not having this discussion. We are going to do everything we can

to protect these children and make this lunacy illegal. Anything that I can do to make this illegal, it is going to happen. This is a no go. It is the most ridiculous thing that I've ever seen anybody suggest in this country, it's crazy. Do you think parental consent matters? Because one of the dividing lines in the North Carolina bill versus proposals and other states was other states have said they can't do it unless there is parental consent, because

we've seen instances where schools essentially are trying to bypass parents. In North Carolina, the bill that they approved through the House Health Committee wouldn't even allow it even with parents' consent. So I agree with that one. It should be illegal to do that to a child. Illegal. You should not a child should not be able to go through that surgery. That a child's brain is not fully developed, a child has not reached could not reach that adult conclusion

that they won't that permanent transition done. That is, it should to be strictly in the domain of those twenty one in all period. And I don't understand what's so hard to understand about that concept transgenderism. All of those issues that we talk about, those are adult topics for adults, Strictly for adults only. Adults should be doing this. Why are we dragging children into this? Why it is insane? And anyone who says that's not insane and goes

along with it. It's part of the problem. Children should not be part of this equation. These surgeries should be illegal, being so called medical institutions that are doing it should be held liable for doing it, and the law should stand clearly on the side of minor children whose brains are not developed,

and we should protect them by making this illegal. Again, it is the most ridiculous thing that I've ever heard any government proposed, or any medical institution proposed, or any thing the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard proposing our society hands down. An earlier version, the bill also included a ban on gender

affirming hormone therapy. Those prohibitions actually were removed by the bills sponsor, but not before he made the point this is rapt Blackwell out of Burke County, that the state Lodge doesn't allow miners to get a tattoo or body piercing without parental consent. Do you think that the hormone portion should be in there, because it's now not in this version. Again, children should not be included in any of this conversation. Those under the age of twenty one should not

be included in the end of this conversation. This is the strict domain of adults, who can make adult decisions, who can sign contracts, buy homes, do all the things that we were strict. You can't even buy a beer until you are twenty one. Why are we allowing children to make a life changing decision at the age of five six? Some of these things? I thought two three year olds are talking about work at home? Are you insane? All these people insane? I would suggest to you that they are

some type of math delusion is going on again? Cases this is one thing. I draw a hard line here. This is a no goal for me, absolutely no goal. We're not having this conversation. The conversation we're going to have is how do we protect these children and make this illegal for minors? So your number is twenty one, whereas you know, for for most purposes of government, with the exception of you know, the beer referenced, eighteen is the number. Why not eighteen? I'll give you this case.

This is the biggest argument you will get out of this. Eighteen or twenty one that could be the argument. But nothing nothing below that, certainly not two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight nine, till hasn't put no, absolutely not. We could have that conversation about whether or not it should be eighteen or twenty one, but it's gonna be an adult age. It's gonna be an adult age in mistake because this is not the domain. This is the domain of adults, and that's where it should

stay. Let's let's make a transition here. No pun intended to school choice. This is really this is this is a big This is a big, big, big deal. Because we've seen a lot of states, even states that were firmly in Republican control from the executive mansion down through the legislature, that we're not able to get this done. And while it's not done in North Carolina, it does appear that both the Senate and the House have enough votes not only to pass it, but to overturn any veto that the governor

may issue. Now that Cothams aboard this idea that money should follow the students, the bill in North Carolina has a few interesting caveats, like some of the moneys will be on a sliding scale based on income, so it's a bit of a progressive standard in the way that they've done that. Are you comfortable, what is what is your involvement with this, would you like to see changes and do you think this will actually come to pass because opponents are

claiming that this is you all just trying to destroy public schools. Mark, Well, you know, I'm not going to question the way the bill is being crafted at the current time. I'm going to allow the legislature to do the work that they're doing. It doesn't have to fit every criteria that I have out, or it doesn't have to fit my quote opinion on how it should look at this moment. But I do believe the dollars need to follow the child and we need to fund students and not bureaucracy. That is the

problem that we have right now. We are funding bureaucracy. We are allowing dereaucracy, bureaucracy to decide how dollars are spent to educate our children, and you see the wasteful spending that is happening. I placed every bit of failure in our public school systems, not all teachers, not all students, not

all parents. I placed every bit of it failed bureaucracies. Those who do not know how to spend the dollars, Those who do not know how to probably put great curriculums into the schools that call success in the class room and block great teachers, students and parents would being able to do what they need to do in order to be successful inside those classrooms. So yees, the

dollars need to follow the student, not the bureaucracy. But why should somebody who makes one hundred thousand dollars not have access to what is the current per pupil spending, which I believe is about seventy four one hundred dollars versus somebody who makes thirty thousand a year. I mean, shouldn't in both instances, arguably only one of them has the full breadth of tax liability? Why why should it be a sliding scale? Or do you disagree with that? You

know I'm going to stop shorter thing. I disagree with it. If I would say this, if I was crafting the legislation, it would be the same for everyone, and I think it should be the same for everyone. But I would need to take a deeper uh would I would need to talk more closely with the bill sponsors and the folks who placed that in and get a try to get try to get a deeper understanding of why that sliding scale is in it exactly. So I don't want to I don't want to say

that the bill sponsors or the folks who are writing it are wrong. But on the surface, that's not something that I would agree with. But I would definitely that could definitely be a conversation we would we would need to have its why that that sliding scale was in it? Um So, I mean, obviously the predictions are dooming gloom. Republicans are trying to destroy public education. What do you think is the role of public schools if this passes,

competition emerges and we're working with charter schools. Obviously they hate that there's a bunch of religious schools. Ironically, the school that received the most funding in just a few years ago was actually the Muslim school over in Greensborough, the most voutuer usage. So it runs the gamut more than just Christianity. I mean, what do you think the role of the public schools will be? Because they're saying it's basically they're going to be cast by the wayside, and

I don't know that. I believe that. I don't believe that education. Here's the thing, why is there's such an emphasis on the public school and not an emphasis on student success. That's the goal of education. The goal of education is the see to it that children received the education and training that they need to take into their lives to make their lives and success. That's the goal here. The goal here is in not running around talking about promote

public education and saving the public education. The goals here is student success. Being able to be in charge of their children's educational destiny, being involved in that education, and seeing to it that their children are receiving the education and training that they need to build successful lives. That is the goal, not funding some bureaucracy, not standing up for quote public education. The goal,

it's student success. And I believe that student success will come in in an education system where parents are in charge of their children's educational destiny and where competition flourishes. Competition builds excellence. We see that from the top to the botherment, all in all different facets of society. Competition builds excellence, and in

education that's what we need. We need excellence for all of our students, and we need opportunities to have that excellence for all of our students to build that success in the future. There now we're into all of this stuff, and of course there's a racial component they're wanting to attach to this, saying that the ultimate the biggest losers here are going to be minority students because they're

they're stuck in the public education system. Did you ever see the Waiting for Superman documentary which was about these lotteries for charter positions in Washington, DC and these gyms full of minority parents crying their eyes out because they're so ecstatic that their kids are going to have a choice that's not just the failing school they're around. What I have they not talked to any minority parents who want better for their kids because it seems, I don't know, the whole thing.

Seems like these reporters don't want to get out and get the real story here. I have to imagine there's lots of parents of all backgrounds that really, really are have their fingers crossed hoping that there's another choice for a school system that's not working for their kid. Absolutely, you know, empowerment inside the home begins. I believe with taking control of your children's education. It really

don't It could actually change the structure of a family. I have talked to individuals who the beginning of the change in their home to becoming more upwardly mobile was the change that they made when they took their child or children out of failing public schools, put them in schools that actually work and actually educate, and those children began to ride educationally. I've spoken to parents who saw their children ride in those in those institutions, who would then inspire themselves to find

institutions where they could get training for better jobs. You know, this is the secret casey to solving what much of call the wage cap, is allowing folks to take control of their own destinies. And it starts with a quality education, that pursuit of happiness. That's where it starts. And for these these folks, these dereacrats, and these reporters to be so disingenuous in their reporting saying that minorities are going to suffer worse than first, that is ridiculous.

Those are the folks who are going to have the biggest benefit paid because they no longer have to be beholden to a government that says you have to stay in this failing school, you have to keep up with this failing trend. No I do not. I can take my depthin in my own hands. I can take my children's depthiny in my own hands, and I can go over and I can get involved in this great school that's going to give

my children what they need to succeed. That's the key, Tasty. And for those people that to report anything other than that, it's just jinguis and

quite likely it's a lot I got a minute and a half. The New York Times has decided that they need to meddle in North Carolina politics, taking umbrage with the recent judicial rulings from last Friday, claiming that it's basically the court is nothing but politicians and ignoring the fact that the decisions are actually made in a pretty extraordinary manner in these sped up trials ahead of the switch in the in the court. Do you think the court got it right on Friday

with these reversals on voter ID and two other things. Absolutely, the court got one hundred percent right. Fifty five percent of the people in this state voted for voter ID. It was struck down by three activist judges who who acted on not one sintilla of truth. Fifty five percent of people across the state that asked for voter ID to be the law, and three people in this state, three activists, decided they didn't want it and struck it down.

Our court got it one hundred percent right there, and they got a one hundred percent right on the other two rulers where our maps and the other issues. Because now we have a Supreme Court that follows the rule of law and the constitution. They are not activists. They are honest to God judges who look at the law and interpret it properly. Were not those folks that are sitting up talking about their feelings. There are folks that are talking about

the law, and that's what we need on our court. And kudos to them, and kudos to the North Carolina GOP for doing the hard work of getting some decent judges elected to will follow the law. Mark Robinson, Lieutenant Governor, joining us this morning. I'll let you get back to it, Serbill chatting a couple of weeks and it's gonna be busy and we'll keep up on it. Thank you, you got it. Sorry, thank you all right, phone number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four.

Lots more to get to coming up. Hang on being celebrating ten years and still going strong. Thank you can see us on ninety four five w PTI in the Triad and one oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle. Alrighty, welcome back. It is eight thirty six here on the case O Day Radio program. Thank you to uh Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson joining us. Uh. You know we generally chat with him first and third Wednesdays. As here we are month. Oh May, very exciting. M oh yeah. We

got a fake drinking holiday too coming up on Friday. So a week of the irresponsibility rolls on. Or maybe maybe Corona's not your thing and you're more into a Guatemalan chili powder. Police say they arrested the thirty four year old man by the name of danielle A cent Cio Berrera. He was pulled over

Thursday evening and initially arrested for driving on a permanently revoked license. He's had some traffic issues, but during the subsequent search of his vehicle when he was being taken into custody and the vehicle impounded, police located a large clear bag containing thirty grams of what eventually tested positive for heroin. However, Brera says that's not true, and that it is Guatemalan chili powder, which contains heroin. It's I guess it's supposed to or something which I was not aware of.

So I guess if you're in the spices aisle and you see Guatemal guatemal and chili powder, it contains heroin. So now that's his actual argument. He said a member of his families from Guatemala sent him chili powder, and guatemal And chili powder has heroine in it. So I don't know if that's going to work in court, sir and un immigration detainer. So you know, I guess if he does go back to Guatemala, then he'll have all of his heroine chili powder. Ross. You like spicy stuff, man?

Can you imagine the kick of those wings? Right? Get a nice wing sauce with a glotamol and then you get the bubble gut on top of that. No, it's bad and I'm passing that one. Probably just stick with the Get some tujene or something from Mexico. I don't think it has heroin in it. I hope not. I puts them on popcorn yesterday. Pro

tip there for you, all right? Eight eight eight nine three four seven, eight seventy four speaking of all of the gender and the transgender news rather in Florida for that matter, because this was down in Florida when they arrested this dude. UM, very interesting M community input session about UM, well, you know kids, and you know, whether a kid really knows what gender they are when they're young and now they're just working it out. But

there are some indicators that parents can look for. And I guess if you've got a young child and you're trying to figure out yeah, I mean I know that they came out with you know, male or female bits, and but you know, maybe there's other clues I need to look for, more so than just you know, genetics. Here's a woman who says that she noticed something pretty interesting about her kid, So, uh, let me let me share this in case it helps to inform any of you out there.

At anxiety and would never sleep, and we couldn't figure out what the problem was. We took him to specialists and neurologists and he had brain scans trying to figure out why he couldn't sleep. Then as he grew he got to sleeping. But his food choices were odd. They were always like green vegetables, raw green vegetables, which, if you know kids, most kids don't like to eat those things. By the way, the child in question biologically is a girl. So one day she can't figure out why the kids acting,

in her words, strange, not sleeping well. And then and then all of a sudden, it's dinner time and her child is shoveling green vegetables down the gullet. When we went back and realized that the pattern of everything that he had experienced as a child, including eating green vegetables because that boost testosterone, were just methods of his body trying to become who he was meant to be. His brain does not match his physiology. Somebody probably told this

woman that. I don't think she arrived at that on her own. So let me get this straight. If your child enjoys vegetables, they're a boy, regardless of biological gender at birth. What isn't like if we're gonna go stereotypes here right, I noticed she's trying to make this a science thing, like the like the child is making. H Well, he turned too and

decided that he needed more testosterone in his life. So he made a conscious decision to eat more broccoli, um one kids and vegetables that some kids like them. I don't. I always like them. But my sister was a really picky eater. She didn't like him. My other sister did, so I guess that's not now my other brother. I'm not sure how this works. But on the flip side, um isn't like the stereotype that dudes just want red meat. Like those are the jokes we make, like with Ross's

truck trap. If it's a bunch of chicken wings were excited, but wasn't one of the truck's cabbage. We got time for that. They do a les recall if you're looking like to put on muscle right or or as she's saying, a game test tosterone, or you're gonna be eating red meat right, protein, eggs right meat? Your go too isn't gonna like if I'm going to the gym and I'm like, I want to pack muscle on, you know I want to I want to be a dude. You know you're

not gonna. I'm not gonna like go to the produce section and eat carrots. It makes no sense. When's the last time there was a lettuce recall that you actually had to stop and check your food. Let's be completely clear here, lettuce isn't actually food. It's not real food. Well, it's food for rabbits and stuff, right, it's food for our food. You would agree, yes, okay, it's food for our food because I don't want to eat my food. I don't want my food competing with me for

my food. So I'll, you know, I'll get the food that eats the stuff that's not food for me, and then boom, now it's food for me. She's like, you know, my kid is anxious and he won't sleep and he eats the same food. It sounds like possibly there could and I maybe I'm saying this is because it's my perspective. There could be like an autism diagnosis here because your kid is anxious, has a hard time sleeping, insomnia, and is obsessed with a certain sort of texture and food.

Mmmmm. Or maybe your kid can't sleep because needs more physical activity and is in front of a smartphone screen all the time, and maybe get out of the house. Maybe your kid eats some stuff and not other stuff because they're a kid. Maybe your kid has no energy because they're not eating any

protein. That's another autism thing right because your kid. I know people in the autism community, families right where like my kid will only eat you know, chips, or my kid will only eat the and it's because there it's malnutrition. How do you how do you so? How do you expand that? Because it's hard, man, it's hard. We actually have a family friend who their son was recently in the hospital for like months because all he would eat were chips, and then he stopped eating the chips like the ladies

chips, and they had to do it. It was so sad, it was so scary, so neat. I mean, it's it's and they're going to be sending him to um to like people who specialize in getting children to eat correctly, Like it's it's not because I want to make in any way I want to make a joke. It's because, like you pointed out, Um, this woman, because she's decided that that's the reason for the season,

she could be overlooking all of this other stuff. And if she's got some quack telling her that, well, the reason the kids eating broccoli is because they want testosterone because they're really a boy. Um, are you even addressing these issues which can lead to exactly what you just talked about. That's the scary part there, because now you've decided all, no, it's because

they're trying to do it yourself gender transition and not. Hey, they have dietary needs that are not being met here are So I posted the the video to the blog and Twitter just put on a warning on the headline that I gave the article. Oh no, what we already got slapped instant lab Yeah, was it too harsh? Was my headline too harsh? Hold on here, lunatic mom new daughter had to chop breasts off because she ate broccoli. Oh oh, okay, I think that's a fair summation. Well, I

have some opinions on the matter. I feel like you've done your due diligence here and h you know, people, I encourage people to go view it for themselves. How's that and uh pass their own uh judge judges, you know judgment all right? Eight forty six Ray Stage. He is the judge of the weather, and he has judged you, uh one team nice weather, right, yeah? Deserving of it? Yeah, deserving of it. It's been a little cool this week, but temperatures each day now, I've

been getting a little milder on that trend will continue. We do have some clouds that are starting to come in now, especial Tryad and points west, and although we'll have some sunshine to think, more clouds as we get into the afternoon. Not as optimistic about a lot of sunshine as it was maybe earlier Today a mid sixties should do it. Still gusty breeze, maybe gusting

thirty plus, but there's no advisories in the area. Tonight, mainly cleared, load of mid forties, beautiful day Tomorrow, lots of sun lower seventies, similar day Friday, just a little more cloud but still some sun hides in the low seventies, and a chance of shower Saturday that doesn't look like widespread rainfall. There's probably plenty more hours of dry than wet, a lot

of clouds, though highs will be in the mid upper sixties. Then we kind of reset and things get back to what we like to call closer to normal with mid seventies Sunday and sunny and maybe maybe degree temperatures early next week with lots of sunshine around, so really not a bunch of rain casey over the next five to seven days. We'll just kind of mess around with the sky conditions like we had to do today, seeing a little more cloud.

But other than that, it looks like we're going on a milder run, especially as we get into the latter part of the weekend and early next week, which up to the beginning of the week quite well deserved. Okay, thank you, sir, appreciate it, and okay, come back chat with Jeff Belinger next, hang on a near decade on the calendar and celebrating ten years on the air. This is one oh six one FM Talk in the Triangle and nears Talk four five WPTI in the Triad. Alrighty fifty two Bloomberg

Update now Jeff Belinger, what's happening? Okay, See, we had a sell off yesterday on Wall Street. Major averages each fell a little more than one percent. That may have been somewhat to overdone. Futures are modestly higher they have been all morning. Now. Futures are up twenty one points. The betting among economists is that the Fed will announce one final quarter percentage point

interest rate hike this afternoon and then pause its campaign of rate increases. Private sector employers and created a almost twice as many jobs as expected last month, adpiece as companies added two hundred ninety six thousand workers to their payrolls in April. The report also notes annual pay was up six point seven percent from April of last year. Olive Garden's parent company is growing. Darden Restaurants is acquiring

Ruth's Hospitality. It's a transaction worth more than seven million dollars. Ruth's seventy million dollars. I'm sorry. Ruth's owner is the owns Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. Besides Olive Garden, Darden owns Longhorn Steakhouse, Bahama Breeze, Season's fifty two, Capital Grill, and Yardhouse. Starbucks posted a quarterly profit the top Wall Street estimates, but investors were more interested in what the coffee company had to

say about the future. Starbucks shares moved higher and after hours trading because the company reaffirmed its previous earnings guidance instead of raising it. And KC Fox News may end up with the only live late night show until the Hollywood writers ke is over. Fox says there are no union writers on Gutfeld. Other live entertainment shows already went dark last night. At this point, a quick end to the writer's walkout appears unlikely, and there could be more labor trouble down

the road for the entertainment industry. Studios will begin contract talks with other unions in the weeks ahead. Casey, Jeff, are we have an informal poll? Going broccoli or no broccoli? Broccoli? I like it? Okay, all right, good, good, good, Thank you sir for weighing it. Appreciate it, all right, have a good day, take care. All right, there you go, Jeff Bellinger, Bloomberg News. I mean science man, gotta go with the science. So so wait, Olive Garden

just bought Ruce chris steakhouse for how much? Seven million dollars? How much leer is that? They don't they're a you, They're based in Florida. It had to be complicated, right because they have to transfer the money over to over to Italy. Did you literally look up the Italian currency? No, I'm aware of it, man. Seven million dollars and seemed like a bunch. Sounds like Ruce Chris is a little bit of trouble. So. The only reason I know that is because of the Seinfeld episode where he gets

the house in Tuscany. Did I just saw I saw this story. Yes, I forgot to put it in the prep. I knew you would enjoy it. Apparently, um, that area of Italy is c is one of the largest growth areas for US citizens retiring over there. They're flocking to the Tuscan region of Italy and the Italians or not. You gotta eat good, so you get to Florida or Tuscany. That's it. So you just like, maybe you'll set up in the Tampa area, or or we can go

to Tuscany and be right in the middle of it. Uh. Also, or you can move to our Kansas just don't get into a dispute with your neighbor. An Arkansas woman says her neighbors have dumped a buckets of human feces roughly three years worth, in her yard as part of some beef they have. How much is that? How if you had to guestimate going you know standard you know buckets, right, how many buckets do you think you would go through in three years? Jesus Manton, they just saved it up for

three years. How I don't I in buckets? That man? They must have been pissed off about something. I I it doesn't sound like it was all just three years. Basically they she got the big brunt of it. But she also said that basically some um that she had complained because they was feces running into her yard and then all of a sudden it wasn't and she realized they were putting it in buckets, and then they just decided, I guess, to give her the gifts. And now it's a police are involved

in this whole thing. So I mean, the commitment is impressive, though it satisfaction, right, three years waiting to do that and finally you get to dump it on the neighbors yard. They probably felt so good, like finally, I mean, they only had what three months worth, and it's

saved partially saved Mark Wattney's life. So in the Martian potatoes, yeah, yeah, so maybe they thought that she wasn't eating right, she needed some more potatoes in her diet because that dictates, I guess, a gender transition or something, and they wanted to help out. So free fertilizer. Here you go, bad stories, horrible. It's in Arkansas, so it's probably

not even the worst thing that happened to you that day. Annie, who plus you got a bunch of free buckets, so there you go, blast half full or bucket half full, I should say most probably all the way full. And on that note, we'll leave you with that horrible thought and talk to you tomorrow. See you,
