Wednesday-4-17-2024

Happy Wednesday, everybody coming up on the show. We're all right, don't cancel Mark, though, we'll keep that in. I've told you how I feel about these shows where you put all the work together right coming. You know, you're doing a very early morning show, so the work has done the majority of it the evening before and after you do all that work, something happens, a news story presents, and it's all for not and then

like you just spend the whole show doing it. And I understand that generally, you know you're talking about a bigger, big time story there, but still I don't I like to have the show content dictated to me and in such a refined manner. Unfortunately, that's where we find ourselves today. So dude, I'm telling you man, it's just like you get up, you think things are gonna be one way, and instead it is wildly different. Okay, where the heck? Okay, we'll have to do the elephant story

too, so so yeah, well that's just dumb. What the heck did I just do with the damn Oh? Here it is all right, Ross, I'm sending this to you, buddy, Text it over to Ross, and then what I need you to do because there's context missing in this story. I just send it over to you. This is you know, this will be like d Day. I'm just I'm trying to I'm trying to figure out the level of importance. This is from the Hill with a big breaking

story yesterday. So everyone's speculating what it was. I think what you need to do is probably get that over to the company's lip reading specialists. We're a big company, very important, big support staff. So and see what it was. Are you ready for the headline? Ross? Have you received it? I texted it to you, just a photo there of it. All right, I'm gonna read that. Do you want to read the headline or do you work on getting it translated? What he's saying to his lawyer.

All right, so this is the from the Hill. This is the headline. And remember yesterday Trump in court watching people who video themselves at Biden yay Biden rally getting for the for the most part through the first hurdle of jury selection. At some point, Trump turned to his attorney and this is from the Hill quote. Trump just looked at something on a cell phone before handing it to his attorney. During his hush money trial, that's the story.

That's the story, that was its own independent story. Trump looked at something on his cell phone, handed it to his lawyer. That's it, And we need to get to the bottom of what it was. Was it the jury's jury members social media post? Was it? David goes to the dentist. Maybe he's watching that weird wind up that the Yankees Nester Cortes has and trying to decide if they should make it illegal because he's beating too many people with it. Maybe he's weighing in on that. I don't know which.

By the way, that dude's not new How is that only a problem this year? Anyway? Maybe he's looking at the probably five million or so. I think Kaylin Clark's going to make that whole thing yesterday. What what a time suck that was. Although we do have a little bit of an update because I think people were not being honest arbiters. But luckily The Hill was there to write an entire feature story about how Trump glanced at something on

a cell phone and then handed it to his attorney. So big time breaking news right there. And I saw, by the way, I saw somebody comment on this, and because then they're actually trying to take this thing seriously, which is just the dumbest thing ever. And they're like, you know, it's disrespectful when you're trying. It's like, is it? And then they said, and I quote, that's why you've never seen Biden staring at his cell phone. That's that could be a reason. Person on Twitter who

goes by I can't read that. Okay, anyway, he's got a fun handle. That is one possibility. The other possibility is, can Joe Biden use a cell phone? I mean, yeah, I admittedly I don't know if I've ever seen him with a cell phone. But what a dumb comparison to make, right, because now I'm wondering if he knows how to use a cell phone, or they give him one of those fake ones that you give little kids so they stop breaking yours, right, buy it at Target.

It makes noises, but he doesn't do anything. I think kids are too smart for that now because they want the screen time. But we will. We're going to be getting to the bottom of what exactly was on that cell phone, So stay tuned for the breaking news, or if you want to speculate, you can, oh, you know what, maybe he was watching that video of the drivers who had enough and have finally just ganged together to drag these moonbat protesters out of the street. It did very well.

I tweeted it out yesterday. I think we got like one hundred some likes on it. Maybe the President saw it. I don't know, but I do know that the Hill was Johnny on the spot and able to catch this very very important breaking development this morning, and we're able to bring it to you. So there you go eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four the phone number Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson. I guess goubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson.

He'll be joining us at eight oh five today. We can maybe maybe he has some insight. You know, he gets FaceTime with Trump, so maybe, I don't know. We'll try to solve this mystery though. Okay, all right, very good, and uh yeah, we got to get into what happened. I saw our buddy Pete Calender was all over this story out of Davidson County, and I definitely need to I'm curious what the Lieutenant

governor is doing about this. So if you don't know the story in Davidson County, a sixteen year old student is it's a vocabulary assignment and there's words, and I'm not trying to be disrespectful here. The the premise of the story is the student was given vocabulary words to use in a writing assignment and one of the words was alien. And he when the teacher said that, he you know. He Then when she said you have any questions, he said, yes, do you mean alien in like space alien? Or do

you mean alien like illegal alien? And he's suspended for three days now? He asked that, Now did he do it in a what's the the British? In a cheeky way? Maybe? I don't know. Look, is there is there sarcasm and sparm that permeates it, smarm that permeates uh you know a teenage what? Yes? I was one. The difference is I didn't grow out of it. But regardless of whether he did, because I saw some people saying, well, you know, he meant it sarcastically.

That's what you're missing. Maybe. But also it doesn't matter. You was suspended a kid for three days for using that term, not directed in anybody that would be that would be important context. Okay, if he if he had a Hispanic classmate and he's running around calling him illegal alien. Then yeah, I think that constitutes bullying, even though the phrase in and of itself is a phrase that is within our laws, consisting of words that are within

our laws. I believe the statement that the student's family made said, Look, it's a word I can go get out of the dictionary. Right. The term being a suspend for three days, when not directed at anybody, is wholly unacceptable. And as you can imagine, Mom's not pleased. And also, and the point that they bring up is, now he's got this suspension on his record, and essentially his record shows that he would suspended for

racism. What do you think that does in today's modern university admissions process. It can't be helpful when you got a ninety percent chance you're gonna be you're gonna be running into some sort of moonbat buzzsaw throughout your collegiate environment, because you know that's the breakdown when you look at the donor stuff. Having something like that on your quote unquote permanent record, I know that's that's this is why it's unacceptable. And I saw that Pete interviewed the mom yesterday, So

I'll give you the rest of the story today. We'll talk about it, and then tomorrow when we chat with excuse me Friday, when we chat with Pete, that will be definitely interesting. Okay, wow, that was fast. Okay, here we go. All right, So I had Ross and the Trump looked at some I'm on his phone and then showed it to his lawyer video because I want to know what the lip reads. So this is from a right. Russ just sent this back to me. This is from

our company lip Reader. All right, hold on one, it's the part in bold. Okay, all right, all right, so here we go. Here's the official transcript. Hey, barrister, barrister, look at this. Look at the big beautiful Hayes for sheriff Twitch channel. It's entertainment Bigley. Really that's from the lip Reader. I mean, to be fair, I didn't even get the lip Reader video. I just assume that's what he said. It was very in the video. Yeah, yeah, okay,

I was. The speed was throwing me off. So you think the logical Oukham's razor ramone on. This is during the wad eir portion of his trial, whether trying to get the least Moonbattie group of moonbats together that the president the former president interrupted his lawyer to show her a twitch. I mean, to be fair, it makes me uncomfortable because I'm not one for self promotion, I understood, So for him to put me in the spotlight, I'm

not sure how I feel about that. So it's his fault for putting you in the I mean, I'm not guilty, No, no, no, no, well, I mean maybe if you were in Manhattan, because you don't really have to have done anything. I don't know if you know how it works up there these days. But yeah, okay, all right, so maybe that I made a second opinion. All right, So yeah, lots to get to. Also, is Kyle okay? I guess yeah, he probably is. I saw there was a stabbing at his favorite Walmart.

I was talking to him yesterday about this too when I saw the story, because he always goes to the Walmart on Newburn Avenue, and I'm like, really, how's that work out for you? And they had himself a little incident, little incident yesterday, and then apparently they had another one. He was telling me about that. I didn't know about that. I have questions, So get to that. John Couger's on the show Blair Witch Project in the news. This is kind of crazy some of the stats in here.

We'll talk about that, and this is something I can get behind. Hang on, we'll be back like this. The thing up Manhattan is gonna be what it's gonna be. If you if you remember the top charge, the felony, the felony charges were not brought by Bragg. That was remember, that was the whole thing. When they finally saw it, then they realized that you're dealing with you know, just not to say you're not dealing with trouble, but it's it's already shaky, the whole thing shaky from from the

word go. And yesterday you saw it demonstrate standard of Yeah, these social media posts which clearly are speaking to the individual on trial, unless you literally, I guess, unless you literally wrote lock him up, then good to go, or the defense will have to purge it. And you know this is a defense trying to see the jury in New York City for a former Republican president. You can have as many strikes as you want. I still suspect that if you were to get everyone to be honest, that jury is

going to have a left bend to it. So but you know the other woman say, ah, I thought it was I saw what it was going on. I just I filmed it. I thought it was something else entirely because I didn't use my eyes, So prepare yourself for that, and I actually saw there was. One of the lawyers on MSNBC was like people, a juror a bias is not necessarily derived from one having an opinion over a story, but rather how they express the opinion or what they feel should be

done if it is in fact within the balands of the law. Well, I mean, technically, locking somebody up could be within the bounds of the laws. So that's a complete BS thing you just made up, sir, Like that doesn't hold any water. And then the judge the standard for the jury he chose not to throw off was I looked her in the eye and she should be good to go. That's not how it works. Right. Let's say that I'm on trial. Okay, I don't know what I did.

I'm sure it was horrible. Anyway, I'm on trial and Ross's in the jury pool because you know he wants to be in the jury, right, And let's say that Ross had a series of tweets telling everyone that I'm a gin, okay, an Asian demon. We're just putting this out there in the weirdest way possible because he then because he's telling everyone that I'm this evil entity, but because he is not telling them what things should be done to defeat me. I know this is an out there analogy, but I'm

just trying to make it make sense. The fact remains that Ross would have Ross is a juror has demonstrated having a pretty low opinion of me. He's trying to tell the world that I'm a demon from Asia. Okay, so it doesn't matter whether he prescribes if I should be burned at the steak or not. It's also dumb. By the way, I'm not a gin, so I don't believe what you read. Okay, all right, very good craziness. I mean a little mental break, dude. You guys see what

happened in Montana yesterday. No, not more Californians moving there, although I'm sure that happened. Butte Montana you may know it is, but when you were eight and you thought that was funny, and it was funny even when you And by the way, Butte Montana is probably is the largest Butte city. But there are multiple other buttes. There's Square Butte, there's Round Butte, there's Tall Butte. So buttes are very popular out there. But this

is the og butte. This was the wild West mining town of Butte, Montana. Not my favorite town in Montana, but it is. You know, I get into some bigger scenery there. When all of a sudden, people just trying to go about their business on the main street see a circus elephants breaming down the street at them, just running rough shod throughout the streets,

then exploring, ignoring people. Police are scrambling to stop traffic because it's a circus elephant and it's in Butte, Montana, and the trainer from what was the name of the circus, Jordan World Circus is chasing after this damn thing. In fact, uh, we're gonna tweet the video out, but check it. Here's a here's a little snippet prod. Only in Butte, the circus elephant got loose. Where are you going? Where are you going? For it? And he's all right, all right, So they're they're

yucking it up. I don't know about that. Only in Butte, Like this is a constant problem over in India and then it stomps on people. So like, I feel like your experience is going to be a little more positive. But what killed me is and it's not this video. It was the one that was I saw in the news yesterday and I was trying to

find. Now. I hate when you see something on the news and then you literally go to the news website and you click on like three different raps of where they've done this story, but it's not the one you've seen. So I could not find the the most western thing that I've seen in a long time. Uh, it took place, and I was dying laughing at this thing yesterday. So if you watch the video, you'll see that. You know, it's a bunch of cutshots of this elephant just kind of exploring.

Butte goes over by the casino or a by the truck stop. People are just watching it, and there's a one of the vehicles that stopped because the police had literally stopped people from proceeding down the street. You see the people out of their cars like taking pictures, right obviously, but in one you see this this old boy pure ranch. Look to him, he's driving a ranch truck. And for those of you who don't know. When you drive a ranch truck around, you have your you know, you have the

back. Most of us will have the back gunrack, headache rack as well on the vehicle and inside behind the gun rack is where I used to stick lariots lasso's, and you'd have a couple there and then your gun's over because there's a little hook on some of them. So he just get him right on there. And I see this dude, he's got door open, he's staring at this thing, and he reaches in and he pulls his his lassu from behind his gun rack and looks at it for a second, and that

kind of throws it on the seat. That dude wanted to rope the elephant, and I was like, oh, yes, please, please, please, please please please rope that bastard. And then he didn't, so I was I was a little bummed by that, but the story was rather amusing to me. And you know, at that point, and you gotta find

something you can't just rope it and drag it. This is the mistake that people make if you're gonna rope something that uh, you know, has the potential to really really give you a tug of war, like if I was if I was gonna put a rope on one of the BLM horses that we'd buy. You know, these are wild mustangs. You you wanna, you wanna throw that rope, get it, get it set, but also like be near a fence post and then quickly, you know, put it around

there or put it on your saddle horn. But for an elephant, I don't know that any of that matters. I don't know if any of that matters. Buy it. We just we'd rolle bison if they get out, but they were they'd like walk with you. They were pretty docile. So elephant, that's probably you're gonna You're definitely gonna want your your odds stiff rope there, so check that out. Also, if it was lucky, it's not how it's spring hunting season actually, yeah, that goes through the end

of April. So I don't know if elephants are one of the spring species up in Montana. It's been a while, all right, eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four all right, we got to get to go to get to whatever Joe Biden was doing. Yes, oh, maybe that's what Trump was with. Maybe Joe maybe Trump on his phone was watching the video of Joe Biden's screaming and farting on stage yesterday. Don't know, but we'll share that with you and much more coming up. It is the

CaCO Day radio program. So here's what the airport looks like. And I'm like, that's say a reservoir. And then all of a sudden, you see like like walking through the water, like you know, you're you're way steep down at down at Curry Beach or something, and it's like it's an Emirates seven six seven. It's like, oh my gosh, what happened?

Dubai received over a year's worth of rainfall in one day. Now. To be fair, the average annual rainfall in Dubai is five inches, but in five inches and actually rot you said it's Russa was over six, so I think it's over six now. It's crazy. But what's even crazier is everybody who decided that they were going to run with this story on their moonback Climate change globe, global climate warming change, a crusade who didn't stop for a

moment to actually read anything about what's happening over there. So I don't know, you you've probably noticed that in the Middle East, places like Dubai and a handful of others, they have more money than brains. And so that's that's why you Yeah, hey, let's build islands that looks like the world that will only be occupied about five percent. Hey, let's build what do they let's build? What was the crazy, the crazy, crazy thing they

were building. I want to say, was the whole racetrack thing. And then and then there's the whole fifteen minute uh fifteen minute city And I watched a YouTube video with like the oh and you know that sphere in Las Vegas, that giant monstrosity which I saw this, I thought this was amusing. As part of the stuff that it rolls on throughout the day, it also

has climate change awareness messaging on a building that's entirely electric. I don't mean it runs on I mean the whole damn thing is one big electric screen and you're you that's the size of you know, city hall, and and that's how you're scolding people. It's so dumb. But not to be outmatched, Dubai wants to build one that's much bigger. But one of the other things

that they do is they cloud seed and they're not very good. I mean they're good at it, but they're not very good at it in the sense that Dubai has been doing this rampantly and they're they're not really able to get the results as accurate as they want as they want, And Dubai readily admitted that cloud seeding, uh the utilization of chemicals to sprayd into clouds great rain likely likely was the contributing factor to the the that chunk of rainfall, which

is crazy that they'd even admit it, but so look at the videos. Bonkers. But as soon as you see Al gorestic his face in there, understand the context. Also, maybe maybe we should cloud seed if we can't figure out whether it's gonna give us a nice mist or devastate our infrastructure. At that point, you stop spraying crap into clouds right after, like all your cars flow, all your bugattis floated away. Yeah, you know we're supercars per capita. How well you think that doesn't six inches of rain?

Yes? What were you? They just haven't done it right yet. They just gotta keep going for it. Real cloud seeding hasn't happened yet. You think that's the case, Yes, keep doing it. You're the cloud seed guy, right, try to be feeling great, like I did a great job. Do you You don't think he got some into the palace. How's that going? Well? No, I think he got some into the palace. But yeah, yeah, did we see him leaving? But I mean he's gonna be like, yeah, he's like, did you guys ask for

me to make your rain? They made it rain. Yeah, but then all their you know, their order boats floated away or god knows whatever they have over there, right, like it devastated. Then it devastated all of these the trillion dollars worth of stuff. Like we didn't even know the damage

there because they don't look they don't. It's like when it rains, and you ever been in Texas when you get a heavy rain, or anywhere in the kind of in the south southwestern United States, because when you drive around during the day and there's no rain, you're just kind of staring left, staring right, looking at stuff and and you see that, you know, you see what you think, are oh, look at that old river that

dried up. But the reality is those are channels for moving water on the off chance it appears, and when it appears because it's so the ground just doesn't soak it up, so it gets channeled and you in a minute, in a minute, you can have this dry creek bed that is a absolutely pounding river. And that's not to say that we don't get that here in North Carolina Cape Fear River during the hurricane a few years ago south of Fayetteville, there was bonkers. But like, even just medium rain and in very

dry areas can create some very dangerous flooding situations. People get killed out in Utah, Waomi, Montana, places like that where you have some of the drier canyons and they're hiking up them, and like people die every year because all of a sudden it's raining in the distance and their brain doesn't go, hm, well, I wonder if that mile it's dry here, that probably

won't affect me. Utah, there's a couple famous canyons that the ones in Zion that they literally will shut off if there's even rain in the forecast. You can't go there because you walk up and it's just cliffs on both sides and it's maybe the width of your car and it's beautiful, but minor rain and a wall of water's coming at you. So if you Dubai and you don't have the infrastructure to move that water, why are you shoving crap into

clouds? That's my question. Build some build some drainage, and then you know, do whatever you want. Man is crazy, God elephants running wild. Dubai is literally trying to natural disaster itself out of existence. There's another day here on the planet earth. Man. All right, Oh oh, NBC had a big they got a big Twitter piece. I gotta tell you about big Twitter piece. I got to tell you about, which we'll get to. But first this one person in custody, the other in the hospital

after a stabbing at the walmart on Newbern. This is around three point fifteen in the afternoon. The investigation slow traffic nearby, closed off the parking lot of the store. So it happened, it looks like it happened in the park line. There's not a ton of information here. I guess on the I guess the one upside is at least then you didn't have to go in. I'm just I'm just trying to find anything positive in this. It's it's not a good you know, it's not a happy story. It is a

national crawfish Day and cheese ball day. You put cheese with shellfish? Who coordinates this stuff? Sorry, just happy to be glancing at my little email I get every morning with birthdays and fun events in this day and the history that kind of stuff. By the way, if you if you do want

to from a historical perspective, jump in the not so wayback machine. It was this week in twenty twenty when twenty two million Americans had it had been one month since, you know, fifteen days to slow the spread, and we got into it. And in this the one month anniversary listed twenty two million Americans who had lost their jobs over the course of four weeks. And I don't and I don't mean and that is not people who were paused.

That number is people who lost their employment as part of the reporting the businesses were doing. So there you go. Also just to just so you know that this day historically sucks, although not as much as the thing that's happening in three days. I know, stoners get all excited, but also like April twentieth is got some unfortunate historical things, not the least of which is the whole Hitler birthday thing. But let's see here, sir on, sir

on kill Bobby Kennedy. He's convicted of killing Kennedy. Oh oh, absolute vodka. That's probably helped a few of you along. Sorry, oh yeah, and then Ben Franklin passed away. Sorry. I don't normally read these unless there's something really interesting in there. But what was more interesting was watching Joe Biden take the stage yesterday. I know there's video floating around with like,

is he farting? What I say, I'm whatever, that's all I want to know what the hell is any But now I guess maybe it doesn't matter. Is anybody ever gonna call him on the That Atlantic article just to show you the value that a bias media can provide when they're kind of working hand in hand with one of the political party. That story from the Atlantic,

where that was poorly sourced and had opposition from every single individual. Now, granted, there were individuals that largely worked in the administration, had worked in it, or were friends with people within the administration, and that's fine,

you can take that into account. But that Atlantic article asserting that Donald Trump referred to people who signed up for the military as losers, right suckers and losers and then when people pushed back on that, and literally everyone who was in the vicinity at the time it was reportedly uttered said no, including not just the people you know that had fealty to Trump, but also people

who were military people not under Trump necessarily. We're talking about retired guys who I feel like, if you served in combat for this country and the commander in chief said that it said in your earshot that your service was the result of you being a sucker and loser, I don't care how much you like the guy walking into the room. I feel like you may take offense at that and wouldn't be so quick to dismiss it again, even if you like

the guy walking into that room. If they said that you're a sucker and a loser and you're sitting there, you know, in proximity to a battlefield where a bunch of people that you knew never made it off the beach and they and that level of disrespect and insult was uttered, Give me a break. And then there's the part where he didn't go to the and then he didn't go to the thing, the event over at the cemetery. If anybody's

if you guys have ever been over to France, there's about twenty. I mean there's the main deal, but there's like twenty different things over memorials, exhibits, you know. Different countries have their own little setup, a reminder that it wasn't just US troops and British troops, Canadian troops. They have a thing over there in Normandy. I mean, it's it's it's cool if you're into history. It's it's emotional standing. I'm telling you what standing standing

in the two positions. Standing on the hill, there's a little hillside thing you can walk down where they have the pill boxes there, you know, where the Germans were strafing our dudes, and you can't understand how horrible the least worst option was, which was the taking of these beaches with the fake out over Calais. It's the least worst option. And when you're looking down from that position, that the that the German soldiers had onto that beach,

I don't know how anyone made it up. It's crazy. And then you can go down they still have some of the metal you know, like the big metal X looking things literally down in the water, and you can then go down there and stare up at that raised cliff and you know there's only one or two ways that you probably feasibly could start moving up there, so

you know that those are gonna be heavily targeted. And I can't imagine being an eighteen year old, nineteen year old kid on a boat flying for the shore knowing that at the moment you get there, that door's coming down and you need to hustle because they're going to start shooting into it. And meanwhile, even before you get there, people around you are getting killed because of that elevated position. They're able to shoot down into the landing craft where rounds

are coming in. They're ricocheting, people are losing their crap. People are jumping out of the boat early only to find themselves drowning under the weight of their own equipment because they didn't get into shallow enough water. And that's what you have to take. It's it. It will I don't say it will change your mind. It will give you a profound new outlook on the sheer insanity, but the necessary insanity that was the D Day invasion. Okay,

let me say that. That being said, Donald Trump not going to one of those things because there was a crap ton of rain and he was doing three other things that day. That's the narrative there, and yet Joe Biden runs around like a lunatic, screaming this easily debunkable thing. And yet if the media will never call you on it, it turns into the good people on both sides hoax. And that's just forever in there. It's just part

of the lexicon. And then when you realize that the good people on both sides, this garbage and others are basically official history, now you start to question everything you learn in history class. Here he is screaming for so well, Joe Biden version is screaming for some reason that I don't understand. One that offends me the most is why he refused as present to visit the American Cemetery outside of Paris. Again, that's the incident I was just referring to.

If you look up the record, he had three different things that he was doing, and they had there was bad weather at that event. There was one other reason too. I think they moved one other thing there. But you know the reality where he's like, I'm not going to go stare at their graves. If that never happened, that's not even purported to have happened. But even in the reporting they explained that at least the reasoning the White House gave. But anyway, so he's greatly offended by this. Do

tell sir, go right ahead. When he was president, why he said that those soldiers who gave their lies were quote because his quote suckers and losers, suckers and losers, he said it. Who the hell does he think he is? Who does he think he's These are a hero he sold You're a hero? All right, let me ask you a question. And by the way, that's not even how in the story they said. The context that he was using, he was talking about military service in general, is

what they accused him of. So it wasn't it wasn't just the dead soldiers at the cemetery, though that was definitely part of the you know how the narrative tended to roll out. But let me ask you a question. Joe Biden. Joe Biden obviously Captain America six tours in. I can't remember the whole story here. You know, he's obviously playing to the audience there,

he's throwing this thing out. People are clapping like seals, although not as many as I thought, so maybe just maybe they they they aren't one hundred percent buying it either, But the audacity of the individual who is standing on stage, who we now know, we now know this was confirmed. Are you ready the identity of the suicide bomber who killed the US service members in Afghanistan during that the withdrawal, which obviously was just a giant dumpster fire.

The Department been of Defense this week has identified the suicide bombing terrorist as Abdul Rahman al Lagari. Aligari detonated a bomb outside of Hamid Karzai International Airport. Thirteen service members were killed. Obviously you're familiar with that. Which you may not have been familiar with, though, is how he was able to be there. Why, Because Abdul Raman al Lagari had been identified as an ISIS member going back to twenty sixteen. In fact, let's see here, Yeah,

twenty sixteen under a Sentcom program. I can't remember the name of it is, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, they have, you know, essentially, they have a database of these guys and then when they do something and they and they round them up, they'll detain them. And in fact, we had a detention center at Bagram Air for the air base there,

you know, where we left all our stuff for him to use. But a decision by the Biden administration, as the US personnel were evacuating the base was made prior this should have been the last thing if you were gonna do it, but prior to the you know, the end of the withdrawal, a decision was made to release the ISIS prisoners by the White House. And Lagari was one of those prisoners. And now he's so cheesed that he's been you know, he was picked up and he's been stewing in this this military

detention center. He then decided, all right, this is about two weeks later they released him, about two weeks before the bombing. He said, all right, I'm gonna be famous. I'm gonna martyr myself. And that's what he did. So we released the dude. Dude got a vest. Dude went back and killed thirteen of our soldiers. I didn't think the Afghan

withdraw could get worse. But that's the guy on stage. Using a anonymously sourced article that the author even said he would do a follow up article because he didn't like people questioning it, and he would, you know, reveal more and then he just never did, just to show you the level of honesty you're dealing with there to now find out that not only had you botch the withdraw turnover all of this equipment and we lost thirteen service members, now

we find out because you let an Isis dude out of prison early too for whatever reason, that this guy in under two weeks time is the one who killed those soldiers. So yeah, I don't feel like you have the moral high ground here. Just an observation seven twenty one hang on. Coming up in thirty minutes, Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson will join us, and we're gonna

get into this suspended team story in Davidson County. Kind of wanted to pair it because lord knows, that's what we're gonna talk about with him to kick things off. So details on that in just a moment. A few other things. This this ac LU story, Uh, this is the New York Times. I went back and looked at the original because now we have a

few more details. So the ACLU they had and they fired an employee and I'll tell you why they fired her because it's nuts, And even the New York Times is like, I don't know about this, but hey, this is what you get when you decide equality and equity mean the same thing and you let the dei insanity infest everything. So the employee in question referred to in the article as missus Oh oh h and that is because she is Korean or of Korean heritage, I should say. And so she worked for the

ac OU. However, she she was slapped with accusations of serious mccond misconduct and eventually fast tracked out of there. So what happened? According to the article here, Miss Oh alleged that there that some of her bosses were creating an abusive work environment. So she did, you know, Rather than I guess screaming out with her bosses, she went to HR and said, hey, I'm trying to do my job, but I got a couple superiors here that make it very hard to do it, and I think that they're also

not acting in a legal manner, so please take my complaints. They took her complaint, and very quickly the tables turned. Let me read from the article, Miss oh following the complaint was the one slapped with an accusation of serious misconduct. The ACLU said her complaints about several superiors, all of whom were black, used racist stereotypes, and then they fired her. Now they fired her way back in May of twenty twenty two. But now is when

we're going to court for this. So this is where it gets interesting. The ACL you acknowledged that miss O, who is again Korean American, never used any kind of racial slur. Oh wait, wait, you just asserted that she used racist stereotype. So I'm confused. ACL you went on to say that her use of certain phrases and words demonstrated a pattern of wilful anti black animis. Okay, uh ross, I'm gonna read that you haven't seen the story. You tell me if you feel like you're at a clan meeting

when I tell you what it is, she said. Okay, so let's see here. We'll see if this warms the racist cackles of your heart or not. According to court documents, in one instance, she told a black superior that she was afraid to talk with him m hm. In another, she told a manager that their conversation was quote chastising, and this one right, this one right here. If the other two didn't convince you, this one will you ready? It was also noted that in one instance, she

used a satirical phrase likening her boss's behavior to suffering beatings. And this is the dishonesty of the New York Times. So when you write that I know exactly what she said. Do you know what she said? I know exactly what she said. It's one of the lamest, oldest, meaniest jokes in the world of employment. And you know, employees venting their frustrations. But the way that they worded it, likening her boss's behavior to suffering beatings.

I think the phrase she used, and I'm not one hundred percent, but I think I'm right, is the beatings will continue until morale improves. How many times have you seen that it's a it's a it's a joke, motivational poster, it's something that people put in front of the copy. Hell, you, somebody's probably posted somewhere. You work, you work in an office

building, somebody's got that damn thing somewhere. But these were considered a super racist and they let her go. Her lawyer or the lawyer for the aclu Ken Mark Goolis, said during the proceeding that it was quote irrelevant whether miss O bore no racist, ill will All that mattered was that her black colleagues were offended. That's not a legal standard. Quote. We're not here to prove anything other than the impact of her actions being very real and that she

caused harm. Just crazy And even the New York Times doesn't sound convinced, which then you know it's bad. All right, let me have a call here, Jamal, what's up? That's why they'd be crap. Black lives not a crime? Got to go. But you know what case called? Hold on? Hold on, i'n let you get to it, dude. Why don't you embrace this man? You let you know the level of people

that you're able to exert. When you can just walk around and just point at somebody and go, I don't like that and then they're gone, that's colligili. But Casey, I'm a I'm a I'm a white supremacist. Casey, I will never like that. Remember remember when they called in they take me? You allow that black white and premises Jamal to come me, so of course I will be against Saniti. Go ahead, mister Bigsby, what did you call him? You know what, Casey? And I'm pretty sure

you're gonna say this is you know the tics attack. But you know what, you just had a woman sentenced to ten months in prison for Joe Biden's daughter's diary for she said Joe Biden molested her. President Trump needs to start saying that right now. Joe Biden's daughter wrote that he took naked Let me say this, Jamal. I want to see I want to see the news

agency, which I am absolutely positive had to have. The first thing I would do is take pictures of every page of that, knowing that you might not be able to retain it. You know, the assertion is that those pages are doctored. I don't know that I buy that assertion because it's handwriting, but I would feel a lot more comfortable on that allegation because I think it's a really important, creepy thing if we could physically see those pages.

Do you know what I'm saying? So I just want to put that caveat in there. But I the fact that it's in handwriting and it appears to match her others. I don't know, and I don't think people are being one hundred percent honest, But you're right. This woman was sentenced to ten months for acquiring a diary that was left so anyway, I'm sorry. Finished, And also Casey, they have her recording and hey, I want my diary back. You didn't know she called that. He called the person who

had the dietary. She called him and they recorded her. Okay, well I don't I'm not following. What's the daddy loved you? No? No, actually Biden called who had trying to figure out the point that you're making though, are you? Oh? I'm trying to make the point is Democrats can sit here and Joe Bidy can get on and start saying these things.

This was outright lives that President Trump said that about our men and women in World War One, then President Trump and Republicans in the House and sending me to play just as dirty and sit here and say, well, mister President, I then you molested your daughter and go on and put it out there because that's her words. My dad took naked shawls with me that were inappropriate.

I remember being arrested. This is our words. If Ivanka Trump would have woke something like this, you know, they would be all over the news. They would have been pushing in their pushing that pushon. But once again, when Republicans have dirt just as powerful. The first thing we want to do, we want that PSI intagrity of the rank democrat level true if it's not true, like you have to think this out. Like again,

I don't know that those pages are verified. I haven't seen anything where where I have comfortable saying that I believe they're one hundred percent true the same you know, and so like I, you know, why would you? Why would you when this is a thinking exercise, just like I thought through that. Joe Biden like a member of the military standing there hearing that and putting up with it. That's why it doesn't hold water for me. You want

Republicans before verifying it, to make it a campaign issue. That's some dangerous dice there. Man. Well, here's the thing. Always say. If you got one side putting the flamethrower to the house, and then the other side keep trying to put a house and the house is still collapsing, when the other side see you got a flamethrower, then they said, hey, don't you burn that side house. No, they want mutual share it destruction.

That's why nobody fined nuclear missiles because of neutral shared destruction. And also the pages have been verified. Those clippings and stuff like that because my little last year and talked about it. And I'm not going to get into a date over this for weather already. But I'm telling you satisfaction. I just okay, does every no no, when you say that, I got it, Jamal, I got to go to break so I'm sorry about that. But how can everyone has a flamethrow Sorry? Actually I hung up on just

a little early ross. Why does everyone have a flamethrower but us? Have you ever wonted I have one? No? No, no, no, dude, I'm trying to remember what happened when I said the sword thing. Oh, man, I wish I had a flamethrower. Man, yeah, yeah, I wouldn't that be cool if we had flamethrowers. I mean we'll need to right, you know, it's better than a flamethrower to do tell two gold plated flamethrowers. Well, how about three raced agic weather channel?

You want a gold plated flamethrower, sir, sure, backyard barbecues'll make it all real quick. Mm hmmo. Thumps and tailgate and yeah, opposing teams tailgate that runs the bathroom they come back and other stuff's on fire. I mean a lot of uses. So yeah, I could find good use for that. I absolutely all right, So we'll see if that works. So, speaking of works, the doppler's working, but it ain't shown much. Hu, Yeah, not much. Tryad A few showers rolling east. Really

you're getting ready to come to Greensboro. They just passed Hickory. A lot of this, maybe virga which is precipt. That's not reaching the ground, but I think some of it is. But we don't even make a puddle. You go a couple of time and the wipers. You're probably out of it as those showers pass through west east here this morning. By midday we're out of the threat. Still warm, we were all above eighty yesterday,

probably low eighties again today and early today. A chance of another round of showers, maybe a thundershower, small chance again, we'll still stay mild, in the little mid sixties. Let's put that in perspective. The normal high this time of year is in the low seventies, so we're well above normal.

Omnio overnight lows, sunny, beautiful day coming up tomorrow with the light west breeze, middle eighties, maybe some upper eighties around and then another front will come in as we go through Friday in the afternoon some showers thunderstorms with that front at ahead of it. We're still in the low to mid eighties. We will cool off slowly over the weekend. Saturday looks beautiful, plenty of sunshine, mid upper seventies with fifties at night, and a chance of

little rain Sunday afternoon with temperatures in the mid to upper sixties. So we won't cool down with a little wet weather coming in by the end of the weekend. But other than that, I think our best chances of any appreciable rainfall tomorrow afternoon and then maybe again on Sunday afternoon. I'm calling idiot's shut off the heater for the year time job. I already did the airs on here. The sleeping is the thing for me. It's got to be an ice box when I sleep. So all right, man, hey, do

me a favor if you guys can fix it? Why is it you guys? When you when you get it, you make it rain that you can't? You can't? Could you finally make it rain where it matches up with one of the intermittent settings of my wipers, right because it's always the goldilocks thing, right, because whatever level it's raining, there's always one that's too much and one that's too little. And I don't understand why you guys do that. So you got a time to delay, so you put it on

and then right, so dumb, all right? Anyway, all right, let's get back to trying to drown and we'll talk on the next one. Okay, Yeah, that story is crazy. All right, coming up, we'll have a lieutenant governor on a ruling here god, a ruling in Canadia over government funded I don't want to call it sex reassignment surgery because it kind of is, but it kind of isn't. This story is crazy. Just

wait for it coming up. I don't try. I don't. I don't get into conversations about the various political ads unless prompted to do so, so normally I leave it alone. But so Ross has been receiving a few calls. Explain, Explain to me what the calls are. Yeah, so we've had tons of calls in the past week of people confused when it comes to

the race between Kelly Daughtry and Breadnought. I called it. This is the just for everyone's this is a runoff Republican race for the thirteenth Congressional district. And yes, all right, so those two made the cut, so to speak. So it's between them to see who will probably be the next member of Congress because it's a heavy R district. So anyway, what's the question, Well, the question is which one is the Trump candidate, because they

are both claiming to be the Trump candidate. They're both claiming to be the anti Biden, antiliberal and the Kelly Doughtry's commercials originally were like, hey, I am the big Trump supporter. You know, I'm America first, I'm Maga and you know, bread not and I'm nothing. It's bread not But when I first heard the commercials, I swear they were saying bread notot so I call him bread notot Bread. Now you know bread Nott is, you know, worked for Biden, he's a liberal, didn't even vote for Trump.

But then Trump came out and he was like, hey, I'm endorsing bread notot So. Now breadnought is saying, hey, Kelly dodtry, Kelly Daughtry's the Biden and the liberal. And people are confused. They have no idea who the Trump candidate is in that race. You know, well, I guess better bread Nott than balloon nut. Actually, no, that I think about it. But yeah, so that's Look, here's the deal. So what did Trump actually endorse. I want to say it was about two

weeks ago. Yeah, here we go, April eighth, No, I'm sorry, April fifth is when the endorsement came down. So yeah, about two weeks ago. So the commercials and I don't know if they're running in on ninety four five, they may just be on one o six. But basically the commercial rouse is referring to, you know, pretty standard I'm the most conservative. The other person's a rhino. However, things got a little

weird because there was some claims being made in the commercial. And by the way, I don't know that those are candidates ads or if they're group ads. I probably should have checked that. But in the claim they the knock on Brad not was he was a Biden prosecutor. Well, he's a former prosecutor, did work in the DOJ and worked in that capacity at the time that Biden was president, but also when other people were president. And here's

the thing. I understand the natural reflex on people work within governmental agencies because of the swamp stuff. But also if if we have such concerns about the DOJ, but any Republican or Republican purporting to be Republican person works there is then immediately dismissed. That's probably not good. But then, in what is kind of unusual, Trump just came out with that endorsement at a speech earlier this month, Carolina Journal wrote this story and to get picked up nationally.

And in the story, it talks about a student in Davidson County. He's in class. He's sixteen, so I guess what is that se as junior, sophomore. I don't know. I can't tell how old kids are anymore. He's in there and it's an assignment where they're supposed to use vocabulary words, which, frankly, one of the words is alien. And I'm kind of like, why are sixteen year olds being assigned vocabulary assignments for two soyllables

words? So that's my first question, but whatever, And at which point the teacher said the word alien, and the student responded, do you mean like space alien or do you mean like illegal alien? And by the way, he said illegal alien, not possessing papers or something, and that's important because he and his family have literally lived overseas, so they've had to maintain visas. But some say he was asking it to be a smart ass, and maybe I don't know. I was sixteen. I get a little little

cutesy with the teacher. But the reality is when he said it not directed at anybody except to ask the teacher for which alien did you mean? It was enough to receive a three day suspension and a mark on this young man's record that he was suspended for being racist, and that can't serve you well, especially trying to get into a university. All right, So that is the story. Let's welcome in the Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson, who joins us

this morning, also gubernatorial candidate. What the hell is going on in Lexington? How are you doing, Mark? I'm doing just sign casey. I'm not wholly familiar with that story. I have heard it, I have not looked into the details of the stories, but it doesn't shock me. It doesn't shock me at all that something like this would happen. I think it's it's just a symptom of a sickness that seems to be permeated in our society

where these words that they are absolutely non offensive. The word illegal alien is non offensive. It fits the description of all types of people around the world who may be in country and who may not have taken the appropriate steps to be in that country legally or maintained the status their status legally, And now

all the sudden it's so offensive that we can't use the term anymore. Well, let me be the first one to say, there are many people who are in this country right now illegally that we need to be examining, because that that entire uh uh, this entire debacle that we have going on our border is literally put in our nation in peril. Just the one small example of the individual that was captured in Gates County was on the terraft, was

on the terrorists watched with you. Multiply that by hundreds of thousands possibly across this nation, of people who are here for nefarious purposes, who came here illegally and are now here and may post danger to this country. Yes, it's just the symptom of a sickness act. Like I said, it's called the big problems in this country. Did you see did you see the the video yesterday of all of the UH. Now they look to be primarily immigrants

from Africa who had also crossed through the southern border. They all happened to look like military age males too, which is weird. Uh. They basically had City Hall up in New York surrounded yesterday demanding stuff. Right. And it's there's between those stories and the Venezuelan dude who was complaining because they were he was at a shelter and he like he didn't like that people would come in and make sure he wasn't breaking the rules. Uh, it's it's it's

just wild the stuff you see up there. But sometimes we forget that here in North Carolina, we're struggling with a lot of this, uh, because you know people, people are coming from all over. Do we have a number that you're that you know of? Because I remember under McCrory, like the Obama administration wouldn't tell him when they bust people here. Do we know? Do we have an estimate in North Carolina about how many people have been

transferred from the border. Yeah, I've heard numbers, but I won't quote any of them. We don't know. I don't believe I don't believe that we know you know, my my opponent in the googenlatorial rights shows, Stein said he doesn't believe there are sites where cities here in North Carolina. And I just can't understand why the world he would say that when we have some of our sheriffs right here in this state, and our biggest county is our

largest, most populous counties, who refuse to cooperate with Ice. They refuse to cooperate with the federal governors. They try to carry out their mission to try to keep the American popular safe from potential from folks who have comeing across our borders who are potentially dangerous. They refuse to cooperate with those folks. So how can you say that we don't have sanctuary cities right in Greensboro,

my hometown. We have a place in Greensboro where folks are be in housed and from one I understand, they won't even allow our federal delegation inside of this place. What's going on is absolutely insane. And I'm telling you we need somebody at the helm here in North Carolina who's gonna make sure we change course. And we're not talking about legal immigration. We want folks to come to America. We want folks to come in be Americans. We wanted to

find uh to be able to get that dream of a better life. But we need to make sure that border is secure so we are not all out and dangerous people to cass our borders. We have enemies all across the globe right now, Casey, who are chomping at the bit to bring this nation down, and we have a wide open border. Think about that, Think about the potential, Think about think about all those weapons that were left in

afghanst down by the bid administration. Think about the wide open border now that is there's wide open because of the Biden administration, and think about what a disaster that could be. Well any those those are going to be the higher profile things, Mark, and I agree with you, but I don't want people to lose sight of because it's not just folks coming here to commit a

terrorist act that I worry about. It's also folks coming here who have really no intention to bootstrap it on their own and uh and it may even be here for other I guess, less visible criminal purposes. Those you just want to make sure that those are the people not coming in. And you know, frankly, we just we don't really have a filter on that stuff.

And the behavior of the gangs that are running roughshot over Midtown up in New York should be a pretty good indicator to people that not everyone is coming here with the purest of intentions. That's that's you're exactly right, Casey. Again, it goes back to my statement about the young man in the school being suspended because he used the praise. It is a symptom of a sickness that is causing big problems, not just in this state, but across this nation.

We've gotten it all the way down to the granular level. Now you can't even use the phrase illegal aliens. Not only can we not stop him at the border now, not only can we not demand that they that they identify themselves when they get here. They are now demanding things that they things that they have not earned, and you can't even call them what they are. Well, and then't know if you saw the up Yeah, I'm sorry, did you see the update yesterday? Mark? I wanted to say this

in a question I forgot. So now they find out that the reason the accused killer down in Georgia was released from the tenth to you know, the holding center there on the Texas border. Was not for the legally prescribed reason of him meeting certain criteria and requiring a follow up trial, which is what they use, but rather for overcrowding. They really and that's not a legally

justifiable reason to turn somebody into the interior of the US. It was, you know, it's as simple as people weren't doing the paperwork, except now it's it's going to be magnified because of the horrific nature of what he is accused of. So even the stop gaps they claim are they're they're they're clearly not following them, they're not. And it all goes back to the head. It all goes back to the leader, and who is the leader. The leader is Joe Biden. It goes back to the fact that Joe Biden

came here to North Carolina and talked about health care. Casey, he talked about health care. The Northern Republican led North Carolina legenclag sure pass medicating spanking in this state to give I think six hundred thousand more people health care in this state. Now, some folks like that and some folks don't. But the North Carolina legislature is already tackling the issue of health care right here in this state. We don't need Joe Biden to come here and tell us how

to operate and how to deliver health care to our folks. What we need Joe Biden to do is have his eye on the ball down on the border, and he clearly does not. And just like the fact that you just mentioned that you will allow someone that dangerous to slip through the cracks, it's all because the leadership is not leading correctly. They're not sitting down the edge to the people underneath them to strictly enforce the laws that are on the books

and make sure that the people of this country is safe. And again all goes back to the leadership. Well, frankly, every time he comes here, I don't even know what the hell he's talking about. So I tell myself he's coming for the cookout, which I can respect. I'm pretty sure that's what it is. Yeah, No, I all love for a cook

out there, So I understand it. You said on the State Board of Education, Mark, just to clarify for folks, they don't know that as part of the lieutenant governor's job, what are the chances you're willing to get into this with Lexington. What is the process because this is beyond insane and and this student will carry that mark, which again is a suspension and out of school three day suspension that is predicated on racism, right, And I

did see that Steve Jarvis is really kind of spearheading this. Obviously, this is his history, this is this is this is one of those things right now where especially as we're debating different schooling options, that I think that Republicans need to be very visible on this is unacceptable and less there's some context which I haven't seen, and I haven't seen it in any stories, even the stories from outlets that don't you know, would normally be negative. So I

know you're a busy guy. You know you're Lieutenant governing, You're trying to do the full governing thing. But I really feel like maybe you and Jarvis and others need to stick your nose in this. Sure when I was made aware of it, I decided that this morning that was going to be one

of the first things that I did. In some of the phone calls that I made this morning, I was going to try to get a deeper understanding of action what happened and who was spearheading trying to find out what happened, and we will be doing that and if we find the story to be as simple as it appears, and as you said, no mitigating circumstances here, no history from this student of ever having been quote skirting the edges or pushing the envelope and whatever you want to call it. I do feel like we

definitely need to take action because it's time to put our foot down. O ca see, it's time to put our foot down. I mean, I'm my kids way back when they were in high school, had to go to high school with children young. I'm not gonna say children, we're adults who were there. We had ankle monitors because they've been in charge with violent crimes. So you have people with ankle monitors all in the school who've be in charge with violent crimes. But a kid who says the illegal aliens gets three

days. Yeah, it's upside down and back was world cay See, and we needed to get it right side up again the school. Now, according to the story, he didn't say it directed at somebody like you could make an argument if he was. He turned around to a Hispanic kid in class and was calling him illegal, ailing to be a jerk. Sure right, I'm with you there, And according to the Assistant principled of following the incident, a student who I guess had heard it complained about it, but again

it wasn't directed at him. And that has been the three day actions. So I'm I'm going to be very curious to talk to you in a couple of weeks on this. For sure, Mark, you got it, because I think this is Yes, this is a big deal with Yeah, I'm sorry, we're to fit get to the bottom of it. Okay, cool,

cool? Let me quick two other things. One of the very first things, and you just mentioned it, that is likely on the agenda for the short session is the eight counties more populous counties where sheriffs ran and one of the issues was not cooperating with ice. They're going to take another run at this. Previously to been vetoed, but now they have veto proof majority that would require sheriffs in North Carolina to cooperate where with ICE under certain parameters.

Several of the sheriffs said they don't care. They they'll just not do it. So how do you think this thing plays out? I think I think you should get passed. When the bill was first written, I be honest, I kind of walk them on a little. I thought it may be starting on taking authority away from sheriff. But you know, ultimately, what I really thought about is just the saddest thing about this bill is that

we have to write it fast. The saddest thing about this bill is that it had to be crafted to tell a law enforcement officer to do his durn job and protect our citizens. Don't share need but take a look at the landscape and understand the landscape they currently stand on. They are standing on a landscape that is ripe for terrorists action in this country by nefarious people who may be crossing our border illegally, and they refuse to work with our government to

prevent that. If those terrorist actions happen in those counties, they can count that blood on their hands. And I think the legislature needs to pass that law and make sure those guys do it. And if they don't do it, I believe they need to be in peace and removed from office. It's time for these folks that are in these positions to uphold law in order to do their job and stop being activists. You want to be an activist, quit, get your Facebook page and get your sign and get on the street.

You want to be a lawman, do your darn job. Yeah, you don't need a Facebook page. You can just glue piping too, your arm in block traffic. Mark, it was all the way us over the weekend. Lots of stuff you can do. And I just it's not like

a broken record. But I would remind that, in addition to being released from the border for non legal purposes, also the individual accused of killing the student in Georgia, he had been incarcerated for a couple of days in New York on a robbery charge and they were trying to do an ice detainer in New York wouldn't honor it, so they let him out. So like we're ticking all the boxes. Just craziness. Man, All right to me one other thing for you, Mark, and that is diversity goals and the discussion.

According to w r ALS reporting that the UNC Board of Governors will consider a policy that could mirror the squashing out of DEI policy. We've seen Florida and Texas do it. I think Florida or Texas just had seventy DEI employees that are looking for work. Now do you think North Carolina is able to get this done? And how do you counter that republics are destroying our higher

ed I got about a minute, So it's all yours, sir. I'm all in favor of getting rid of getting rid of this diversity, equity and inclusion nonsense that's permeated our society, not just our education system. It's permeated our government. It's permeated big business, It's permeated everything, and it's ruining institutions across the state, across this nation. We need to replace this DEI

diversity, equity and inclusion in this state. And we need to go back to what makes things great, which is the DEI version that I prefer, which is discipline, excellence, and intelligence. That's what we're afflicasing and that's what we need to instill. All right, you and Josh figure out debate stuff yet or is that still working. I'm open for a debate with y'all. Steyin anytime. He wants to on the right in the right format,

and we're I'm pretty sure that's going to happen. I don't know. I can't speak for him, but we're certainly not going to shy away from that opportunity. Cool, cool, all right, there you go, Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson, appreciate it this morning, sir. I'll let you get back to it. Okay, thank you, all right, so there you go, good, good, good. I'll be very interested to hear how that Davidson County discussion goes. Very interested. We'll be back hang on, Yeah,

I can't wait. I want to see him with a bullhorn and a video camera. We're in an illegal alien shirt walking around the high school there and Davidson. Okay, not really today's today's modern society would probably lose their damn mind. But what's the name of that high school? You know what? And I forget it was Central Davidson High School specifically, which is in Lexington. I guess if you don't know, But yeah, that story is

crazy. And then I kind of ran out of time. I didn't even get into the Winston Salem students slapping the teacher multiple times, knocking her glasses off, the craziness. And at a time when we're sitting here and you know, a lot more people are engaged in this discussion about school choice, probably not the right time for probably not the right time for a bunch of these crazy incidents to be in the news cycle. But we'll see where this

goes. And again this is based off the reporting here from Carolina Journal. So you know, I wasn't in the room. You weren't in the room. But from how the reporting looks wholly wholly unacceptable. And you want more crazy, let's head north of the border for a moment. So in Canada, if you want to go get yourself, you know, the the land of free healthcare. I'm making air quotes you. If you want to get yourself a sex change, that's the government will do that for you. Okay.

Specifically, they outline a series of surgeries, and you know, the surgeries have technical names, and if you are a male, a biological male who wants to be a trans woman, the bottom surgeries known as a vagina plasty. Okay. And so this is why this turned into a legal thing.

So there's a biological male who wants to transition but not all the way to female because they're a little unsure at the moment, and they requested an alternative, and because it doesn't meet the legal requirement, this ended up in the courts arguing whether this was the intent of the law or they would not be okay, and what's so weird about it is and let me read it Ontario resident who wants both a woman part and a man part. So we go sports car for the one. We'll call the other one the garage.

I guess okay, you're with me, all right, truck on he wants they want both, we want a moorgas board in their pants. Well, the court is ruled that, in fact, the Province of Ontario must pay for this unique surgery. And the reason it's unique, not to get too graphic, is the way that they make the woman part is by is in part by decimating the male part. You know it normally goes. It's really if you ever want to research it, you go right ahead, Okay.

So instead this is an alternative, it's two alternative surgeries. So that quote the options could be left open and those are not my words. The logic of the court. The three member panel of Ontario's Divisional Court said that this is a quote logical expansion of the bottom surgery options for people who I as non binary, and in this case, because the individual doesn't know whether they identify fully male, or fully female and once to protect options for the future.

It is a quote logical expansion of access. Okay, well, then what's next? What if I want two sports cars? No three? No, no, no, No, three is greedy? Three's greedy. Two. We'll do two, but we'll leave some space open for you know, future future buildouts. Or is the ross is three greedy? Or should the three sounds greedy? Doesn't it? Go in and get three of the I don't want any of the other stuff. I'm fully comfortable with the dude thing. I just want more options, like you know, like let's say you

ever zipped yourself in your fly? Guys, you ever done that? Right? So like if now that's a problem, but boom back up here you go. It's like a throwaway gun. But I think three or either I feel like you got to go with two or you gotta go like pin Head from hell Raiser, but around the waist, like it always looks like you're wearing a hoopskirt because and and for those of you going, you're being a

jerk, and that's not what this is. No, no, no, no. You have to understand that the basis of the ruling was about the feelings of the individual and quote the logical expansion of access, because this would this would befit people who are still yet to make up their mind. So, as a slippery slope guy, if this looks like a continued expansion of access, then tell me why I can't have to tell me why I can't have that weird visual with the hell raiser pinhead dude, except not the head

around the waist right. The thirty three year old was born male, but identifies as female dominant and does use occasionally a female name. However, over the years has transmissioned back and forth to how they identify themselves, and then they get into a bunch of like technical medical stuff. That story's wild, man, absolutely crazy, all right. A forty two k CODA radio program.

Canada is just Canada is a crazy place. Man. I used to just think it was good for fishing, but now it's seemingly always in the stack. Speaking of idiots in charge, California has partially now passed the Californiaournalism Preservation Act, which ironically is meant to mirror the very same thing the Canada passed. Now uh with the Assembly voted yes, and now the state Senate's got to approve it. They're they're, they're, I think they have the

votes there. And the bill, this bill in question, would require large online platforms to pay a journalism usage fee. So somebody comes out, somebody goes on Facebook and says, hey, look at this article, and they post a link to it. The bill would require Facebook to pay the outlet for utilizing the news there. And I understand this has been a kind of a gray area trying to uh, yeah, copyright law and republishing and stuff. You know, most of those laws were we're not around digital mediums.

And also we're not around specifically where it wasn't the company doing the posting, but rather individuals on their platforms. So I understand that you may want to have that conversation that being said, that'd be in said, hold on, you can't miss no, you know what, I let me let me run it by the team. Ross one of our listeners, she wants three boobs, like the total recall girl. Yeah, your well, you didn't even think about it. You're just like, yes, how would you find a

bra for that man? That'd be amazing every Halloween for you though, right, get a you know, I'll get a plunging neckline on that people are like, wow, your costume is so real. You're like, yeah, yeah, costume absolutely so more all right, so you got our approval, go ahead? All right, So Megan's off to get an extra one attached. Anyway, back to back to this. So what did Google do? So again, this thing hasn't passed, so Google, because again, how

politicians can't easily predict how people are going to react. Google has responded by blocking links from California based news outlets from appearing in search results. How do you think those journalism outlets are feeling? Yeah, yeah, they're all they're super ticked off. And I gotta tell you, this is one of those

watch you know, watch people eat eat their own right. You got all these not all of them, but the vast majority of news outlets in California, the big legacy ones, they're all in the bag for newsome, they're

always promoting all the Democrats stuff. So the fact that they've literally had this thing backfire before it's even been signed in the law, and it's it's and it's and it's going after the meager revenue that remains for some of these outlets who have lost so much over so many years because Google's not going to pay you for your Hey, here's a bear in a you know, here's a story we did about a bear that went into a campground and somebody wants to

repost it because they think it's cute on social media. Google's not going to pick up that bill, and the person posting isn't going to pick up the bill. So the net result is California news stations, newspapers, and others. You're just not going to be in the search results anymore. And that means all of the revenue that would have been derived from people clicking through on Google sitting in North Carolina or Texas or whatever. I just want to see

what the story was. They're not going to see your stuff unless they actively go to your website or they use another browser. And I suspect the other browsers are probably gonna follow suit. You played yourself, as they say, good job, all right. Eight forty six Ray Stage. He's here in the weather channel. Well what's up, dude, How you doing doing all right? Doing all right? Got this a little batch of rain showers coming through, which doesn't have me feeling great, but uh hey, still it's

a little area of rain might rain for an hour or so. Yeah, I saw that. That's bad. Speaking of playing yourself, stop seating clouds. Okay, guess okay if you see clouds and oh we want a little rain, and now it's you know, it's noah, you need Noah there the airport yeah crazy, I know, I know some crazy stuff there.

So yeah, you know, don't mess with mother and nature. So let it rain, right, and these rain showers will come through here this morning and not yet into the Triangle, but almost Pittsburgh and up towards Rocksboro. And I guess all the Burroughs Greensboro all seen a little bit of rain. Not all we have we have well, yeah, just like all the vulls. Right there's Greenville. You know there's a lot of villas out there too. But they're coming through and rains for maybe an hour or two once you

get it, and then it moves east. But we'll get more, not this afternoon, as we'll actually see the clouds hang tough then and rebound hopefully to the load mid eighties. It might stay a little cooler with this, a little bit of a slower start, and then we'll get another little batch of showers. Stutter showers in tonight again a small chance. There's a small window late tonight around midnight, and then sunshine will be back tomorrow, and

then Friday we have more showers than thutter showers. So over the next three days, Tomorrow is really the best one. Mid eighties. That chance for showers and utter showers come in the afternoon Friday, so most of at least sixty percent of it. Friday's actually dry through about midday, early to mid afternoon. That's when the showers thundershowers to come on. In the weekend looks okay, especially Saturday, great mid upper seventies and the better day of the

weekend with sunshine. We got have a little rain by Sunday afternoon and we're cool off though, you know, the sixties. So I've got this little airy rain pushing through right now. If you didn't get it yet, it's on the way, especially around the triangle. And then another batch coming in tomorrow afternoon, another batch Sunday afternoon. Any of those times that I didn't

just mention should be mainly dry. Okay. I was just while you were talking, I was thinking of all the burrows, and I realized that I'm like fifteen in and I'm yeah, that's just in this state, right, yeah, No, Bladenborough might be my favorite because there's a monster there. But is there you go? Oakborough took at that one too, Which one Oakburough? I got, Vansborough, Ellenborough, Dillsborough, Carborough, Ashborough,

Pittsburgh, Swansboro, Wilfsborough. I mentioned Dillsborough, Rocksboro, Wadesboro, blah blah blah, and on baby's Oakborough's Baborough. I forgot about the borough. Yeah, all right, there you go. We gotta I got something to do today. Yeah, all right, thanks, appreciate it. And Jeff Bellinger's next hang on, Oh, good morning, casey. Stock market future is just modestly higher right now.

Karen Bass, the former congresswoman in Lunatic by the Way, is calling on the quote most fortunate citizens of the city to partner create a quote unprecedented partnership to help tackle the crisis of homelessness as well as the growing population of migrants who have made their way to California.
