Transcript

All right, the fraser fur wax melt has melted. Although I've come to realize I need to change it out. It's lost. It's Fraser fur. Welcome friends, Wednesday. On the Morning Show with Preston Scott. I'm Preston, He's Grant. He's over there in Studio one A. I am here in Studio one B. Yes, we do have an actual studio one A and A one B. We have a ready room, and then we have

a bunch of studios down the hallway from us. We're all the other radio stations, but we are here dutifully each and every day, Monday through Friday, and we look forward to this time very very much. At show fifty one thirty four, Good morning friends, we have a Wednesday for you. Just just trust me, you will. You will leave this three hour window of time informed far better on some issues we have. We've got a lot, We've got a lot to get done. We've got Florida Man Factor fiction,

We've got Florida Man Story. In the third hour, former ATF assistant director Rich Marianos. Now Rich is in his post government career, it would seem, doing a little lobbying, and he is making a push for Governor DeSantis to sign a vaping bill that would limit the providers. But we have questions about it. I am. I'm not fully on board, and so that ought to be an interesting visit. It's not like he's got to convince me. But I tend to think that there are reasons to be concerned about

this bill. That said, we'll we'll unpack that a little bit later on in the program. The Truth about Hamas today on the show from the perspective of well, I'll just leave it there. We'll we'll get we'll get multitudes of perspectives, but we'll focus on the son of the founder, co founder of Hamas. But we begin, as always with some scripture Romans five, six to eight. For while we were still weak at the right time, Christ died for the ungodly. For one will scarcely die for a righteous person,

though perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die. But God shows his love for us in that we will. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. That's what I want to focus on. The work of Christ on the cross was God throwing mankind a lifeline. It was not anything other than an opportunity. You and I have a free choice. God did not program man to love him. God gave us a mind and intellect. He gave us a soul. He gave us the opportunity to

receive a new heart, his spirit. He gave us the capacity to love him. We don't have to. It's up to you. Every single moment of every single day. You have a free choice. It's up to you. Remember, religion is man's attempt to reach God. However you want to outline God, but the God of the Bible, the Father revealed himself through Christ and Christianity is about God's attempt to reach you and me. Ten minutes after the hour inside the American Patriots Almanac, we go next, just starting.

You know what to do. Just settle in. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Welcome to The Morning Show with Preston Scott. April tenth. See what we got here? A little bit of a deep dime. Andrew Jackson, first US President, born in a log cabin, was the son of poor scotch Irish imm Grants, scratched a living from the soil of South Carolina's backcountry. His father died about two weeks before he was born.

Leaving the strong willed mother Elizabeth to raise the Jackson Boys. During the Revolutionary War, thirteen year old Andy joined the Patriot militia as an orderly and courier thirteen not afraid to serve. On April tenth, seventeen eighty one, the militia had gathered at a Presbyterian church when British troops surprised them. Andy and his brother Robert escaped into the woods, only to be captured the next morning at a nearby cabin. The Tory officer ordered Andy to clean his boots.

The fiery boy shot back, Sir, I'm a prisoner of war and claimed to be treated as such. The furious officer brought his sword down on the young boy's head, leaving a scar he carried the rest of his life jerk jerk. He grew up with the frontier, saddle maker, school teacher, lawyer, planter, land speculator, Indian fighter, US congressman, senator, judge, general, hero of the Battle of New Orleans. Writer Carl Sandberg once wrote, he knew little grammar and many scars, few classics, many

fast horses. While a judge in Tennessee, he sent a succession of deputies to apprehend a huge man wanted for a crime. They all returned empty handed, so Jackson himself arrested the criminal. Asked why he finally surrendered, the man said, quote, I looked him in the eye, and I saw a shoot. There wasn't shooting near another eye in the crowd. The president

was shooting his eyes. Huh, all right. When Old Hickory was elected the seventh US president, frontiersman rode hundreds of miles to join the inauguration party, overrunning the White House with muddy boots. Refined ladies and gents said it was the beginning of mob rule. Jackson knew better. He knew it was just American democracy on its way to growing up. I get prickly when people use the word democracy now because I know how they mean it. I just

know that that's not what American democracy is. A constitutional republic. Let me just reiterate that. Other dates. April tenth In history, sixteen oh six, King James, the first of England charters the London Company to establish settlements in North America. Seventeen eighty one, Andrew Jackson, part of the Patriot militia band ambushed by the British eighteen forty nine, Walter Hunt of New York City patents the safety pin brilliant. I mean, just think about the design

of a safety pin. Let's see if we do this. Let me curl it around there, we send it down in. We got a sharp point there, I got it. We'll put a little clasp on the other end. How do you make that? I can imagine how you draw it,

but I don't know how you make it. F Scott Fitzgerald publishes The Great Gatsby in nineteen twenty five, and on this date in nineteen forty two, Japanese begin the Batan Death March, ninety miles of brutality of Filipino and American soldiers in the Batan Peninsula to Apow camp or camps here you yelp, we come back Duncan donuts abroad. All right, A couple of things here.

First, remember guys in particular looking for big brothers. And the flag football game is Saturday, Fred George Park ten to twelve ten am to twelve noon. And it's no commitment. It's just about showing up, finding out more about being a big bro and meeting the littles that are looking for one. They've got a waiting list of over one hundred and ten little guys that just want a big brother in their life. Come on, this isn't for everybody.

I get it, and you might go show up and go yeah that's I just I can't do this, but you might find out you can. And so again, just show up if you want to find out more Big ben Mentoring dot org, Big Bend Mentoring dot org, or just show up. Noon is the deadline or the end, but it's ten to noon and flag football Saturday at Fred George Park. Also got a note from a few listeners about my blog Climate the Movie. Charlie wrote in said thank you for

encouraging the recovery of rational thought. Awesome expos documentary Preston I said, emotions have their place, so does scientific method, and so high praise is coming. Look, Nobel Laureates are part of the refutation of what is destroying our economy and in fact the world's economies, which is the hoax, the scam. It's a scam, man made global warming is a scam. What other climate does it'll do? Man has the impact If you look at the science,

the impact just isn't there. And I maintain I will always maintain. The vast majority of people in this world think we're talking carbon monoxide when they hear carbon dioxide. They don't understand carbon dioxide is an absolute required building block and if, for whatever reason, there's a little too much, all it does is green up the planet, which is awesome. More areas that can

be grow, where crops can grow. I mentioned this the lead research assisted of The Morning Show, who may or may not be revealing a love for donuts by sending this story story on dunkin Donuts, and it began in Quincy, Massachusetts in nineteen fifty. Dunkin Donuts has been a thing ever since I can remember. I've just duncan man, I mean, that's where you go to get donuts. But this particular article is really interesting because it focuses on

thirteen international dunkin donuts you can't find in the United States. Indonesia, the Mokey Waffle donuts. It looks like a waffle, but it's shaped like a donut, and it's kind of a breakfast hybrid donut and has mochi, which is a typical Japanese snack. It's just it's rice flour and so forth. There's the baklava donut in Switzerland. Have you ever had baklava? Oh, not the donut, but regular baklava. No I have not. Oh,

brother, I gotta hook you up with a wedge of baklava. Boclava is not the best word to sound appealing, though, Oh yes, it's it's it is. It is an incredible and what's interesting is it's found in Switzerland. It's these wafer thin sheets and not the donut, but the but baklava and nuts and brown sugar, and it's just incredible. Honey. The Lotus Cheesecake Twist donut in the UAE, The Boston man Jar donut in Chili, The Rocky Road donut in the UK. How about that? We're talking about

nuts, marshmallow, hazelnut, filling, chocolate icing. Oh that's decadent. What about this one in China? The floss donut? Yeah, that doesn't sound good. The Hippoberry donut in Germany. Hippoberry it's a little bit more mysterious. It doesn't involve either hippos or berries. It's made. It's a custard like filling with chocolate and vanilla cream with a kinder happy hippo accessory.

There's the cheesy cheese donut in Malaysia, the Choco mandarin donut in India, the unicorn donut back in Germany, the salted caramel donut in India, the Chaco butternut donut in Singapore and the Philippines. The Kunafa bliss donut in the UAE. It's Kunafa is a dairy based pudding surrounded by h Philo pastry. It's kind of like a filled donut. So there you go. There's some

donuts. If you're going overseas. I'm just saying, don't overlook a Dunkin Donuts because you're likely to see donuts that you will never ever see stateside. Say look at us. We are all about helping you out. And Welcome to the Morning Show with Preston Scott thirty five minutes past the hour. Hello, good morning. You're just joining us for the first time ever. I'm Preston Scott and this is my radio program. It's been twenty two plus years.

We are in our twenty third year. This is show five one three four. That is the number that you would bring to customer service if you, for any reason are unsatisfied with this program. We thank you very much for joining us this morning on the show The Big Stories in the press Box,

brought to you by Grove a creative market and digital expertise. Can I just take a moment here, remember the terrible incident in Baltimore and the destruction of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, And what was my prediction about the new bridge? Do we remember that I predicted that there would be a major push to rename it and Francis Scott Key's name would not be affiliated with it.

And of course, how I mean two weeks ago it is begun. A coalition of African American leaders of anne Arundel County voted unanimously to call for the changing the names of two bridges, including the Key Bridge. They want the bridge to be named in late in in honor of the late Representative Parren Mitchell, the first African American elected to the US House from the state of Maryland, just saying had to be a person of color, no other names would

be considered. I'm quite certain forget that the bridge is literally a few hundred yards from where Francis Scott Key was held captive and penned the words. But never mind I have never heard of sound investigations, but they are kind of another version of what James O'Keefe started with O'Keeffe Media Group, originally Project Veritas. Project Veritas has it officially flamed out or it's just a matter of time because we've not heard much of anything. They've tried, but they messed up.

They have got a CIA officer on tape talking a lot. I'll be interested to know whether or not Gavin o'blennis, a contracting officer with the CIA, formerly with the FBI, is going to remain employed, let alone alive, he caught on camera. I'd play the audio. I mean it's clear if you listen to the audio what he's saying. It's just not radio worthy. I can't clean it up enough for it to work well. He said. You know Trump inside of the riot, but they had roughly twenty undercover

agents in the crowd. He said, you just go through, see observe, see what they can hear that kind of thing. Do you know if people were from the Bureau, we're in the crowd. Do people know that members of the Bureau were in the crowd? He said, nope, and they probably never will. And then he bragged about quoting you can kind of put anyone in jail if you know what to do. You set them up. You create the situation where they have no choice but to act on their

impulse. And once they act on that impulse, some would call that entrapment. So he's asked, does the Bureau practice entrapment a lot? We get really close, We get as close as we can. You put a post out there, you have some folk, some fake profiles, say something that triggers that we know is going to trigger them, right, Like, we already know your history. If we're at that point, we already know everything about you. So we're like, oh, this will piss them off.

Nothing like putting out fake social media like that to get people mad. Then he highlights Alex Jones. He said, we were after him, hardcore, still after him. The undercover journalist asked, nope, he's broke. We got found he got found guilty and had to pay like one hundred million dollars. The goal was to bankrupt him. He said, we don't encourage people. We just say, you know, there's no federal statute being broken. But you had the option for a civil case. It's a pretty good case

in our opinion. There's nothing federally we can do, but civilly, you can go after him that way, you can chop his legs off. We did what we wanted, took his money away. We shut him up for a while. There's your government at work. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Got a picture in front of me. It is the picture of an armed ATF agent with a patch that he's putting on the doorbell camera at the home of Brian Malanowski, moments before disabling the video and breaking in the

door. Why does that matter? Brian Malanowski, for those of you that do not know, was the executive director of the Bill and Hillary Clinton Airport, the Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport, March nineteenth, six am in the morning, peacefully sleeping outside of the upscale West Little Rock, Arkansas neighborhood. Ten law enforcement vehicles rolled up. The first ATF agent gets to the doorbell camera puts a piece of opaque tape on the lens, obscuring the view.

According to mister Malanowski's attorney, at this stage, there is no publicly available evidence showing whether agents knocked on the door or announced their presence adequately. Identifying themselves. What I want you to do is I want you to think through what you would do if you suddenly woke up to the sound of your front door being broken in. He did what I would do, what most

of you would do. He grabbed his firearm and he loaded it. He slapped a magazine in it, racked it, and he went out to see what was going on. Quoting the attorney, he reached the corner in the hall, looked around to see several unidentifiable figures already several steps inside his home. We do not know who shot first, but it appears that Brian shot approximately three times at a decidedly low angle, probably at the feet of the

intruders, who were roughly thirty feet away. They returned fire, and he was struck in the head. He died days later. His wife of twenty five years was taken outside where it was thirty four degrees. She's still wearing her night shirt, placed in custody in the backseat of a police car. She wasn't allowed to go to a neighbor's home for clothes, to use the bathroom, nothing for four or five hours. Atf had put a tracker on

his car in February. After watching him for months, the agency believed that he was selling guns without the two hundred dollars Federal Firearms License and without asking buyers for proper information. This, according to the affidavit his attorney points out, in Arkansas, a private seller may legally sell a firearm without holding an

FFL and without filling out forms or conducting background checks. A private seller may douce so until such time they cross the subjectively defined barrier becoming a person engaged in the business of selling firearms. There is no bright line test. It

is a subjective test. ATF will not make body camera footage available. Suspicious the Famili's asking why in the world for something that would normally carry a zero to six month sentence, which typically results in probation or more often probation ending with complete dismissal. Why didn't the ATF arrange to meet him at his workplace communicate with him that he was under investigation. Here's what we'd like to talk to you about. Let us see your records. None of that, None

of that took place. We talked about this story briefly with Lee Williams, the gun writer. But now we see a little bit more. And now we know a little bit more. This is your federal government under the watchful eye of Joe Biden. This stuff didn't happen under Trump. This is a weaponized federal government and it needs to stop. Forty six minutes after the hour This Morning Show with Preston Scott, fifty two minutes past the hour. I

don't this is likely not on your radar at all. It's just an interesting little sentencing memo. US District Judge Cormac Karney gave Tyler Lobb, who is part of a white supremacist group, a light sentence. He pled guilty to the beating of a journalist at a rally in twenty seventeen in Socow. Inside his memo, the judge repeatedly said, quoting here, that prosecutors have ignored violence committed by Antifa and instead focused on targeting people like Lb members of the

far right. Sentencing mister Lob to additional incarceration would only increase the disparity between his punishment and the lack of punishment and prosecution members of far left groups who have committed the same violent conduct received. So the sentence was time served thirty five days rather than six months. That the prosecutors had sought. I don't know if he'll get reprimanded by people up the chain, but he made a

great point. I don't know that it's necessarily the best basis for handing out punishment. I'm just look, I'm the messenger here. Then there's this. We have chronicled the story of the village of Dalton, Illinois and the mayor Tiffany Henyard, who is I think the best description I've come up with is a piece of work. She's something. She has got herself, attitude all over her, all about her, all through her coming out her mouth.

She is being investigated by the FEDS, among others. Citizens are fed up with her misuse of public funds, lavish lifestyles, trips, you name it, sending money to friends, all on the on the dime of the people that live in this small little village. So the h the village voted to hire a special investigator to look into the entire matter and to come up with a finding. You will never guess who they hired, former Chicago mayor Lori

Lightfoot. They're going to pay her four hundred dollars an hour. By the way, a mistake, you say, we will pay this amount of money and we expect this kind of report and they either take it or leave it and hourly is you are you well? Anyway? She understood the residents want to go in a different direction and promised to follow the facts where they lead.

And so we're caught up there. A couple of other things. I don't know if you saw yesterday US Senate pro hamas pro Palestinian protesters chanting Senate can't eat until Gaza eats, and so maybe a few dozen came under we're arrested yesterday for I'm just wondering are they going to face the same type of prosecution for coming onto the Capitol grounds without permission as January sixth? Probably not. There is a lot of misinformation, a lot of things you don't know.

We're gonna give you things to think about over the next half hour. Here amas the truth from someone inside. Next all right, second hour, Welcome if you're just joining us The Morning Show with Preston Scott Show fifty one thirty four. There's Grant Allen. I'm Preston. This comes courtesy of actor James Woods. You would know him if you saw him. I'll just put it to you that way, you would absolutely know him if you saw him

in his post. Here's an activist leading Muslims in a chant death to America. I'm not making this up. It's right here on video. I thought it was in Iran. I was wrong. It's dearborn Michigan. This is for the purpose of giving you an idea of what's happening inside America. It's happening on college campuses. It's happening in Well for example. It's happening in

places where Rashida Talib is the congressional representative. These are hot spots for anti Semitism and people who hate Jews and want Sharia, want Islamic law ruling and reigning in America. I'll just let this young man and what you hear speak for itself. We've been asked in the past, why are our protests on the International Day of Courts? Why are they so anti America? Why don't

we just focus more on Israel and not talks much about America. Raza has shown the entire world why these protests are so anti America, because it's the United States government that provides the funds for all of the atrocities that we just heard about. And this is why Imam Komeni, who declared the International Day of Courts, this is why he would say to pour all of your child, all of your chants, and all of your shouts upon the head of

America depth death to America. Malcolm X said, and I quote, we live in one of the row in his countries that has ever existed on this earth. It's not genocide, Joe, that has to go. It's the entire system that has to go. Any system that would allow such atrocities and such devilry to happen and would support it, such a system does not deserve to exist on God's Earth. And so when these fools ask us if Israel has the right to exist, the chant death to Israel has become the most

logical chant shouted across the world today. And there of course is a predictable chant. Ivan Komeni recognized that Israel from Michigan settler Colonius project. He realized it is a cancer. And the established this day. Israel before this, Brothers and sisters, was a sacred cow. Nobody could criticize Israel. Everybody was terrified of being antisemitic. Everybody was afraid of them. But now the people of conscience very openly will criticize Israel. They recognize Israel for what it

is. Israel is isis Israel are. They are Nazis, they are fascists, they are race. The people of the world now know this. Now a child comes up that says, free, free Palestine. From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free. And that is the indoctrination that happens all across Palestine. There are there are camps. The schools teach children, kindergarteners, first graders, second graders to hate Jews, not fore any

other reason other than because they're taught that. When we come back, a Hamas defector, not just any defector, the son of the co founder of Hamas shares some thoughts and will'll share what he had to say. Next. Here The Truth about Hamas Morning Show with Preston Scott. This is the Morning

Show with Preston Scott. I watched Doctor Phil primetime on YouTube and they had a couple of kids from the University of Michigan all dressed up in the garb to debate with the son of Hamas co founder, Sheikh Hassan Yusuf Mosab Hassan Yusuf he grew up as a militant. He protected his father was a He was a side by side confidant. But he saw what was going on. He learned the atrocity's first hand, and he defected. He left. Let

me read a couple of thoughts he shared. It's very disappointing to see Americans supporting Hamas and thinking that Hamas is a cool thing. While Hamas does not respect any of those followers. While those followers don't know that Hamas would torture them, massacre them with no mercy. They call them useful idiots. They don't know that Hamas is a dark black hole. Pro Palestinians are absolutely idiots

because they don't know what they're supporting. They are supporting a monster that has been hijacking an entire society and endangering the entire Middle East, pushing the world toward a global war. What's happening is insanity. Those pro Palestinian people need to go to a mental asylum. I was born there. I was part of that culture, part of that religion. That's why I described it as

a black hole. Some people hear about Hamas where they see an avatar of a Hamas fighter carrying a rifle, a freedom fighter, and they think it's a fancy idea to support such a monster. He pointed to the young ladies wearing the black and white neckerchief to distract from the fact that they had no legitimacy to speak on behalf of the cause. On what authority do you speak You only speak on the authority of the Hamas propaganda. One of the young

ladies said why he believed she was speaking Hamas talking points. He said, because if you were a decent human being, you can say that the thousands who were killed on October seventh was a crime against humanity, it was genocide. We have the problem with the pro Palestinian people who are actually giving Hamas cover. They are participants in the crime. The cause must die. I

think enough is enough. Now it's proving you are helping Hamas to prove it to the world that Palestine depends on the destruction of the state of Israel. And this is not acceptable and we are not going to agree to it. For the next ten to twenty years. The Palestinian people will pay the bill that Hamas has caused today and most likely in blood. When doctor phil asked the two young ladies that were apologists for Hamas and Palestinian support of AMAS to

condemn the October seventh attacks. They dodged the question. They wouldn't answer it. They condemned the question. The platform of the question is wrong. Therefore we won't just we won't justify the question with an answer. He said, there are some things that are just fundamental human decency. This is doctor phil When I ask you what happened on October seventh, there's something you condemn and you say, well, you have to look at that by looking at hundreds

of years. No, no, you don't. That's either right or it's wrong, and it was wrong. I don't need a hundred years of conflict to know it was wrong. The son of the co founder said, it's very disappointing to see Americans supporting Hamas and think that that AMAS is a cool thing, while Hamas does not respect any of those followers. It's called common

colonial rhetoric. Now if you support Israel. And then the question was asked of the Hamas's co founder's son, do you think Hamas and Palestinians are the same after October seventh? He said, yes, there's no difference. The vast majority of the Palestinian people sort support Hamas, it's proven by statistics. In your silence, now you cannot even condemn Hamas to say what they did

on October seventh was an atrocity. There you go, when we come back, an interesting little wrinkle in the negotiations to end this last thing on this topic. Because I have I guess it's just best that I stay away from any sites where these protests are going on. I think that's probably the same for all of us. But you have to be able to intellectually, I

think, understand the dynamics of what's going on. And I came across a fascinating piece by Guy Benson with town Hall, and he asked this question, why does Amaque keep rejecting deals with Israel? I don't know if you've been paying any attention to the negotiations quote unquote. First of all, to whatever extent there's a negotiation, it should go something like this. Here's the negotiation. Give up all of the hostages, give an accounting for all of them,

and make sure we have access to the people that planned all. This will stop once we have the responsible planners of this atrocity will consider helping you rebuild but there's nothing to really negotiate. And here's here's what's interesting. Benson talks about the reality and as much as they try to rewrite that hole from the river to the sea thing is no, it's about a free land. No no, no, no, it's about the extermination of Israel from the

river Jordan to the sea. They can try to rewrite that all they want, it's not going to work. But Amasa has been so willing to talk about releasing hostages. Israel should never consider releasing Palestinian terrorists or violent criminals, especially now, even though Israel was offering to do so, which is absurd to me. Israel wants its people back, the hostages back, and I

kind of understand Israel's viewpoint. These are the people that continue continued to go after the perpetrators of the Munich Olympic terrorist acts that killed the majority of the Israeli Olympic team in the Summer Games. They hunt them down, they got most of them. Israel's view is we'll negotiate, we'll find you later. I get it. But Hamas keeps rejecting the offers. Why there is now growing intelligence to suggest the reason why Hamas is negotiating, not in good faith,

but merely to string along the process. The intelligence indicates that the majority of the hostages are all dead. They either killed them all or they've allowed them to die. That's why Hamas is dragging this out. That's why they're not agreeing to deals that involve even listen now, Israel is agreeing to release convicted terrorists, lots of them. So why wouldn't Hamas agree to that, Because they'd have to give up the hostages. And if the hostages are mostly

dead, they're screwed. So they're stringing this along as long as they possibly can, and they're continuing to try to gin up all of this fake outrage in America and in other parts of the world, trying to stir up anti Semitism, trying to justify their action. There is no justification for what they did. And as I said, when you start a fight, you are

not in position to determine how it ends. But the answer for why they keep rejecting the deals with Israel may be because the hostages are mostly all dead. Twenty seven minutes after the hour, the news is next Preston Scott, what will you do with? On Freedom and Used Radio one hundred point seven. Tell them UFLA all right, Staying on track is going to be challenging. Here Big stories in the press Box brought to you by Grove Creative Marketing

and Digital Expertise. If you're looking for a little help, there you go Grove a creative marketing digital Expertise. Come on, proud sponsor of this segment of the radio program you Match Made in Heavy Undercover Journalist Sound Investigations dot Com, recorded about two weeks ago. A little better than two weeks ago. Gavin o'blennis CIA just running his mouth. His employment has been verified. He worked for the FBI and then the CIA, bragging about how the FBI had

a couple dozen agents at least embedded in the Trump rally. Start to piece this together, friends. He's also admitting how they they can pretty much put anybody in jail that they want to. They can entrap them. Yeah it's entrapment, but we just lead them where they want to go. That's in essence what he's saying. And it's all on tape. You can find it online. I'm not airing it because it's just not clean enough to air on the radio. And by clean, i'm not talking about language. I'm talking

about the audio quality. Second story atf blocked a camera before the the deadly pre dawn raid of an airport executive in Little Rock, Arkansas. This guy ran the airport, the Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport. They rated him because they suspect that he was operating a gun business without a license except in the state of Arkansas. It's not that simple. They didn't announce their presence.

They've covered up their actions. They've hidden the video camera footage which, oh, by the way, this is an interesting little sidebar point I did not get to. In twenty twenty, shortly after taking office, Joe Biden, by executive order, required federal agents to use body warren cameras when executing search warrants and to make an expedited public release of such video incidents when serious

injury or death takes place, to promote transparency and accountability. They won't release it, and they taped over and disabled the door the doorbell camer They break into the home unannounced for what would have been most occasions, according to the attorney representing the family, most occasions, a suspended sentence and no jail time. If he'd have been convicted it would have likely been no jail time. He's dead because he did what most any of us would do. You know

what that is? He grabbed his firearm, he popped a magazine in it, likely racked it because he fired three shots. It looks like at the feet at the feet. Now was it intentional at the feet or was he just thrown off by a mob of people and flashlights in his face. I'm guessing it's the latter. But they returned fire and killed him. I can't even get my brain around this. What would you expect a person to do?

And oh, by the way, innocent until proven guilty. We're not talking about somebody that's been accused of or suspected of murdering, torturing people, has hostages in his home. Why didn't the ATF just arrange to meet with him? Hey, you need to get an attorney. We'd like to meet with you about this. This and this. This is federal government's going to I think they're going to have to pay for a wrongful death here, at

least I hope so. And as predicted, an African American group is calling for the ditching of the racist Francis Scott Key when the new bridge is built in Baltimore. I called that. Come back with an interesting story. Stay with us. It's the Morning Show with President Scott forty one minutes past the hour of the Morning Show. Don't forget Climate. The movie on my blog

page now Lee's Lee's become informed about the truth. Send it. Dare some of the global warming fanatics in your circle, Please dare them to watch it. Slowly, but surely people are peeling away from this entire nonsense. Notables Zealots are saying, uh yeah, we were wrong and are now saying this is a scam because they're seeing the destruction of economies worldwide. Please see it. Be informed. Go to my blog page. W FLA FM dot com,

WFLA Panama City dot com. Slash Preston simple as that FBI director who oh, by the way, doesn't have much to say about the whole January sixth thing. You know, I don't know whether we had agents there or not. He has something to say about the arrest of an eighteen year old for a violent plot to attack churches in Cordeline, Idawa, Idaho. This weenie pledged a legiance to ISIS and likely had nothing else going for his life

and so he decided he was going to be that guy. His plan included beating his dad with a pipe, putting handcuffs on him, and taking his all of his firearms, and then going out and attacking churches. He go shoot up a bunch of churches, and then if he had his way,

he was going to get to West Africa and help there the cause. Now, of course, he is one of those useful idiots that would more than likely if he managed to make it to an ISIS hot spot somewhere in the world, would find himself dead within a matter of a couple of weeks. He pledged loyalty to ISIS. He's got videos holding himself holding a knife in front of an ISIS flag looking all bad. And again, Alias is a little weeny jerk kid who's lost his way, meaningless life, trying to figure

out something to do that will have a reverberating impact. And so that's why we don't use names of people like this. We don't feed that beast. But what I wanted to point out is you'll notice here the FBI will do these kinds of things and make that very well known. To offset the previous two stories that we're talking about, see. This is their way of saying, see, look at the good we're doing, while not being accountable for

instigating the January sixth happenings at Capitol Hill, which they did do. There's zero doubt in my mind, zero, zip, nada. The federal government up the people that were at the Trump rally on January sixth. They set up Trump, they set up they set up their own, they set up their own Capitol police. Doesn't matter. They killed somebody and that person has not been held responsible, sort of like the ATF thing. That guy didn't

announce. Ashley Babbitt didn't have a firearm. She was a threat to nobody. You're supposed to have imminent fear of death or bodily harm. There was no I have a gun, stand down, I will fire. None of that boom boom shot killed her. The FBI, well done, Wait to get this little knucklehead, good good job. Meanwhile, there's how many acts that violate the law that they're engaged in his well. The rank and file

members of the Federal Bureau of Investigation are incredible law enforcement professionals. Too, many of the management, upper management, and the leadership are corrupt. It just is what it is coming up to forty seven minutes after the hour come back with Florida Man and an addition of Florida Man Factor fiction. Don't Leave Us. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott Rich, Mariano's former ATF assistant director, talking about a little legislative push. He wants to give a bill

and get the governor to sign. I'm not certain yet I agree, but we'll we will talk about that in just a little bit. But first, yeah, little hump day push frob Florida Man. Well, if you read something insane, I probably did it. Come on, everybody, I'm find a photo box is going in Google my name Monday. Now there's no man to sins. I have committed and we all feel and when we had somebody to play whatever. Yeah, it's Florida Man. Peter Owens thirty five.

It's just this is too good. Sunday Easter Sunday Walgreens in the evening got it in an argument with an employee about a pair of headphones he wanted to purchase. Store manager got involved, demanding he leave the store, but he whacked her in the face with his Bible. Police said in the affidavit she got smacked in the face with a bible. Don't know if it's one of those big old King James, but was sitting Did she get some sense knocked

into her? No? But he admitted that he assaulted the employee because she was being rude to him, but noted that he did not mean to hit her. Okay, just he posted five thousand dollars bail and was released. And then on Tuesday, tarp And Springs police arrested him when he grabbed some cheese its off the shelf and a pair of shoes, wandered into the restroom, tried them on, then put him in his duffel bag and left.

Oh my gosh, So not only did our man hit the manager in the face with a Bible, but he also forgot to read thou shalt not steal like a lot of Christians. Doesn't apply to me. It's for you. And so yes, he was arrested yet again just two days later over cheese it's and a pair of shoes. Oh my hope it was worth it. Bud, my man, you just cannot beat Florida Man stories. But we will parlay that into another edition of Florida Man fact or Fiction. I'll read

three headlines. You have to decide which one is the true Florida Man or woman headline. Headline number one Florida man attacks cashier with toy lightsaber, believing he was part of the empire. Headline two, Florida man tries to break into ATM with blowtorch, welds it shut instead Florida Man. Headline number three Florida man throws feces judge during trial but gets acquitted. Thank go headline one two or three. I'm going number two the blowtorch it's headline number one.

Ah, Florida man attacks cashier with toy lightsaber, believing he was part of the empire. So bring peace and security that. So there you have it, friends, another edition of Florida Man. I'm telling you, I think, almost like the Babylon b We're gonna see headlines of these other headlines and go. Didn't we hear that one time in Florida Man factor fiction? Right? And we'll have to get a new edition of cards here. And maybe, just maybe the stories that are not true, that are that are fiction

are prophetic, just like many of the be stories. Maybe just maybe we can only hope. I mean, everything's so screwed up anyway? Why not? When we come back, we will talk about vaping in the state of Florida and where do those products come from? Does the FDA Seal of approval mean much to you anymore? All that more next on The Morning Show with Preston Scott. Our number three is on deck, the third hour Morning Show with Preston Scott, The Morning Friends, twenty thirty year of the program,

Show five thirty four. No matter where, no matter how, you listen to us, Thank you very much. We do not ever take for granted the blessing the benefit that we derive from you sharing time with us, and we hope that it goes the other way as well. Grant Allen running the program over there in Studio one A. I'm here in Studio one B, and I am joined by Rich Marianos. He's a former ATF assistant director. Rich. Welcome to the program. How are you, sir, great press

the Thank you so much for having me. It's an honor. I appreciate your time, Rich, and thank you for serving our country. I'm going to assume you're one of the good guys with ATF. Not everybody there has my favor, but you're talking on behalf of House Bill one thousand and seven here that is in front of Governor Ron De Santis. Before we talk about the bill, let's first disclose and make sure everybody knows your perspective. Who

are you representing here? I represent law enforcement. I teach at Georgetown University. I work with the industry, retailers, school counselors, law enforcement, school resource officers, several several groups that understand that this is one of our biggest threats to national security right now, and that China is using our children to fund not just organized crime, but Chinese Communist Party. I absolutely buy into the notion that China is an adversary of the highest order. I buy

into the difficulties that TikTok presents. Help me understand the threat that other than the obvious of hooking kids to products through vaping. But this bill in particular is about, if I'm not mistaken rich, it narrows the scope of the products that can be sold to an FDA approved list. Is that your understanding

as well? Yes? And I applied the SDA for doing one thing right, and that is the creat a list and identify the products that wonder that have been approved for use as a tobacco harm reduction device and also identifying products that the kids are using that are dangerous. These disposable devices all made in China, all distributed by organized crime. That we're taking a stand in. One thing I have to, you know, emphasize it's very, very important.

Is the governor having the ability right now and showing demonstrating to the people that he's not a manager, he's not a babysitter, he's a leader. Because a lot of states are you know, indecisive about coming up with a registry or trying to identify this product and get it off the shelves. The great thing about what is happening in Florida right now is you have a governor

who is a leader. Nobody's going to step up to the plate. An individual is going to make a decision and understand what's in the best interest of the people of Florida. Help me out here, though, First I go into this with a massive distrust of the FDA had a lot to do with it. They lied to the American people rich across the board, they altered policies. It's demonstrable. So how do we place trust in quote the list

to begin with. Well, it's very very easy because the ones that are coming from China, we don't even have to use the FDU to understand that they're manufacturing an illegal product. Product it's wrong, a product that's in kids on nicotine to the amounts that we've never seen before. They're making devices out there that you know, our children are using that contain five thousand puffs.

There's seventy excuse me, seven hundred million electronic cigarette disposable cigarettes manufactured by China right now, which and they're making over three hundred billion dollars a year on the back of our kids. It's really simple to understand, even from the

FDA's perspective, and I understand where you're coming from. See what has been granted authority to keep people away from combestorbles cigarettes and what is addicting our children industry right now is not making fruity two dy gummy bears else far all these

youth enticing flavors, it's all being made by criminal organization. So even let's have FDA step out of the box right here, OK, and say we don't want to listen to them, we don't believe them, but we can see just by talking to our children, talking to our school resources in high school, talking to our counselors, what the young adults are getting addicted to. And it's all Chinese criminal product, and every dollar of that money is

being shipped back against our number one national security threat. This is how they're making their money. And that's what this administration is lacking in enforcements. And this is what I'm pleased seeing Governor Despantis stepping up to the plate to find who the offender is, identify what the problem is, and saying, hey, look, this stuff does not should not in any way be around our

youth in Florida. We've got to get it off the show. Rich stand by Rich Marianos with us former assistant director of the ATF, formerly a Special Agent in charge of the ATF Washington Field Division, and our guests here this morning in the Morning Show with Preston Scott. The Morning Show with Preston Scott. You're talking about House Bill one zero zero seven. It is in front of the governor. The question becomes does he sign it or does he veto

it. We're talking with Rich Marianos, sees formerly with ATF. He wants Governor to Sandis to sign the bill. Let me ask you this rich the products that are on the list by the FDA, if I set aside my reservations, which I think we probably both agree there's a reason for them, but if we accept that the products on this list fall within the appropriate criteria. One of the things that concerns me about the list is that there are no products that aren't put out by Philip Morris, Altria R. J.

Reynolds, otherwise known as the big tobacco producers. Is that just a coincidence or is no one else making them? No other people are making them. The ones that you're speaking about have passed the pre market assessments, and the FDAs looked at again as a tobacco harm reduction device to get people away from combustible Okay, let me ask you. Can I I'm sorry, I'm sorry to interrupt, but I have to ask because I used to work with a

client that sold vaping devices. They were prohibited by federal law from claiming that those devices are to stop smoking. They're not a smoking cessation device. Has that changed? No, I'm just looking at some of the studies. I don't know if it's changed or not. I'm not a doctor. One.

And I'm just a professor that teaches intelligence and organized crime. But what I can't say is the studies that I've read and when we look in my class and at the university and we look at this organized crime element, we see that the studies that have shown that we've read at that the FDA has approved

on do work in getting people away from combusting figurettes. Okay, this is what And to make your point a little bit stronger, none of these companies, like if you go on the web today and you type in made in China dot com, there's over four hundred thousand disposable e cigarettes, disposable devices being solved, and not one has had any critical testing whatsoever by any entity, whether it be the FDA or the Los Angeles Dodger of the Florida whatever

you may say. And the point is in the aspect of what you're talking about in terms ofation device, these have been looked at by the FDA and they've been granted approval for sale, and they've done the test and they've went through the process. None of these Chinese products, these criminal products, have ever went through the process. And that is the danger to our youth. We don't know what's behind what's in these things and are there any regulations?

Absolutely not. They're all designed as an addictive entity to get into our kids' minds that are disrupting schools, disrupting the time for law enforcement. You talk to a school resource officer, he doesn't even have time to look at online threats and bullying right now because the majority now are writing referrals for vake devices. That is unacceptable. We want them serving protecting, not regulating an harassment.

We have to change this dynamic. We got thirty seconds left. Let me just ask you, what do you say to those out there that are there. They're with you in philosophy, but they also are holding to the philosophy of free market. Why not just ban products from China? Because you know what, I'm not a free market guy. I'm a cop. I'm an agent at heart. And what I look at is how China and Chinese organized crime and our number one threat to national security is threatening the United States.

In this case, they are in this avenue. And when you see a product making three hundred billion dollars a year on the back of our kids, let's stop the flow of money to a national security threat. Rich thanks for the time. I appreciate it very much and I wish you the best. Thank you, Preston, to been an honor and you have a great week. You do the same, Rich Marianos with us, served with atf and now as you heard teaching at Georgetown and our guest house built one zero

zero seven. What do you think? More in the Morning Show with Preston Scott, make up your mind on what you think the governor ought to do with the House Bill thousand and seven twenty one minutes past the hour. Okay, this is a very very important disclaimer. What follows is tough to hear

me describe. This is an unbelievable story. On Monday, Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd played a nine to one to one audio clip of a twenty one year old man confessing to stabbing his forty six year old mother inside her home Saturday afternoon. He let his mom know that he was going to be visiting town visiting his grandfather that weekend, so he'd stop by and say hi to her. She invited him to stay the night at their home. He agreed.

She was so excited to see her son. Her son was valedictorian described by many as a genius. He was a pre med student at the University of Florida, had a couple of siblings. Mother loved her children. The ring camera footage from her front door showed him walking up, listening to a song No Church in the Wild, as he approached the front door. The second she opened the door, she was so excited to see him, but he was holding behind his back as he walked to the front door, visible

on the ring camera a knife, and he proceeded to stab her. Now, just for a second, I want you to just think about being the parent so excited to see your child and your child does something like that to you. And he kept stabbing her, and he kept stabbing her. In fact, he noticed her hands were still moving, so he stabbed there some more. He cut his own hand while stabbing his mother. He was so busy stabbing her. He was standing at the sink and he told police that

he noticed that he had cut himself. Listen to this. He said in his confession that while standing at the sink washing his hands, noticing that he cut himself, he was going to ask his mom where the niasporn was, but then noticed she was dead. Get your brain around that. Judge said, I want you to understand she was really the perfect mom. She was proud of his accomplishments, and he viciously murdered her and confessed to it. We said, do you love her? He said, oh, yeah,

I love her. We asked do you all get along? He said, yeah, eight out of ten we get along. Listen, but I've wanted to kill her for years. I made up my mind when I drove from Gainesville. Today is the day. What level of evil is that? I got nothing? I got nothing. It's just a sick, depraved young man who, on the surface, nothing there to indicate this was gonna happen.

Unbelievably tragic. The news is next. Consider him your truth detector. The Morning Show with Preston Scott on News Radio one hundred point seven do w UFLA well as tempting as it is to include Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas telling students that the planet Moon is made up of mostly gases. I think I'll leave that out of the big stories in the press box this morning. Our thanks to grow of a creative marketing and digital expertise, we have detailed three stories

this morning. One African American groups calling to ditch the racist name of Francis Scott Key and named the new bridge in Baltimore that will be built in its place something else. I merely said within a day of the accident that that's exactly what's going to happen. And I say accident, almost hopefully calling it

that. I'm not convinced it was an accident, but I'm not suggesting that the pilot of the ship intentionally did anything, merely pointing out that the odds of what happening happening at that exact right moment just seemed to be a little slim. But that said, while we don't know that, I was able to predict, as probably many of you as well, that it was just inevitable. But why is it when we're renaming things, it always has to

be a black person. I'm just asking why why that. I just there are so many notable blacks in American history that have been honored and have been honored. And I suppose that if we ever get past Black History Month and actually just include black history as part of American history, and we actually go back and teach American history properly, well we'll have a better view of America, good, bad, and ugly, because there's ugly and there is ugly.

There's ugly on the side of blacks, there's ugly on the side of whites, there's ugly on the side of of all ethnicities. In this country's history, every group of people has at one time or another been enslaved by another. I just anyway, it was just. It was one of the most predictable things that could happen, and it's happening. ATF blocked a camera before a deadly pre dawn raid of an airport executive in Little Rock, Arkansas. What would you do the doors were busted down at six in the morning.

They did not They there was no reason for the action to begin with none, none. There is zero justification. Can you have you come up with any justification for why ATF would consider this guy who goes to work every day at the National Airport name for Bill and Hillary Clinton. At any point they could have come on down to the airport and they could have said, mister, mister Malinowski, we would like to meet with you, and we suggest you get an attorney, and here's what we'd like to discuss. The

charges he was facing. At worst would have led to zero to six months in jail. That's it. He's dead because in essence, he defended his family and the ATF will not release the video footage of what happened to the body cameras. That's another problem. CIA officer admits on tape that FBI agents attended the January sixth protests at the Capitol, just cementing once again that there is a narrative out there that has not been picked up by many media outlets

that says that this entire thing was instigated by the federal government. It was another form of entrapment. Forty minutes past the hour, This is the Morning Show with Preston Scott, we realize that Republicans outnumber or Democrats outnumber Republicans in the NPR newsroom eighty seven to nothing. That's hilarious. More on that story tomorrow on the Morning Show NPR. NPR is an absolute disaster. Why any of you would even remotely consider giving your time to NPR. There was a

time that they used to do some great programming. I still remember the Tappitt brothers. Can't remember their names. They were hilarious auto repair Saturday mornings. Loved listening to them. Don't drive like my brother and the show. They were just hilarious and they would help people fix their cars, they'd take questions and it was great. And they would occasionally have features on NPR Radio that we're outstanding. And there's still some programming that NPR PBS rolls out there that's

just terrific. But when it comes to news, you can never rely on an organization that is eighty seven to zip and they own it. I mean, if it was eighty seven and nothing and you couldn't tell it was eighty seven to nothing like they just did the news, I wouldn't care. But those days are long gone. Speaking of I mentioned it yesterday, Ran Paul pushed out a piece the Great COVID cover Up, shocking truth about Wuhana and fifteen federal agencies. He said, how vast was the Great COVID cover Up?

Well, my investigation is recently, this is Ran paula US senators discovered government officials from fifteen federal agencies knew in twenty eighteen that the Wuhan Institute of Rology was trying to create a coronavirus like COVID nineteen. He names the project called Diffuse All cap letters defuse the Diffuse Project, proposed to insert coronavirus to create a novel chameric virus that would have been shockingly similar to COVID nineteen.

For years, I've been fighting to obtain records from dozens of federal agencies the origins of COVID nineteen and the Diffuse Project. Under duress, the administration finally released documents that show the Diffuse project was pitched to at least fifteen agencies in

January twenty eighteen. What does this mean? Rand Paul says, it means that at least fifteen agencies knew from the beginning of the pandemic that Eco Health Alliance and the Wuhana Institute of Virology we're seeking federal funding in twenty eighteen to create a virus genetically similar, if not identical, to COVID nineteen. Disturbingly, not one of the fifteen agencies spoke up to warn us. There are members of university staffs, scientists, professors that are complicit in this, named

as a professor at the University of North Carolina, among other places. I mean, it's just I made the prediction that over time, if history is allowed to be recorded, this will be the single greatest crime against global humanity ever. Maybe a close second would be global warming. Maybe that's first. I don't know their neck and Neck forty six minutes past the hour, wrap up the program in Them just a Moment A fifty one minutes past tomorrow.

In the program, Steve Stewart, doctor David Hartz, Dean Clancy with Americans for Prosperity Senior Health Policy fellow talk about the continuing spiraling higher and higher costs

of health care road trip idea. I knew the listeners would come through Grand Tom and Ray Magleolci click and clack the tappit Brothers car talk and and one of one of our listeners reminded me, uh, also the great law firm of Dewey cheat him and dow We dow We cheat him and how it's just if you can find an old recording of that show, I just challenged you to give it a listen before the end of the week. Yeah. I don't have the context for this to understand the joke. Well, it's just

Dewey, do we? And how the preface to that they they came up with these things, and uh, you know when my brother went to the law firm of do we cheat him, and how it's just don't drive like my brother, don't drive like my brother. They were just naturally hilarious guys. They just were And so thank you to the ruminators for reminding me. But I challenge you it could end up on your Best of the Week. Is that right? Yes, it could because it was. I think they

stopped doing the show just a few years ago. They finally just aged out. They started it in the late seventies and it was a thing. I mean, it was a thing just naturally funny guys talking cars. It's just as American as it gets. And they're just funny guys and it was all clean. That was the other thing. Anyway, quick reminder here I mentioned it earlier in the show Big Brothers of the Big Bend, Big Brothers, Big Sisters, Big Bend. They're doing the flag football game as an introduction

guys. We're focusing on guys because they have one hundred and ten little boys on a waiting list, and that alone just breaks my heart. I just one hundred and ten little guys want a big brother. It's just like, Ah, the flag football game is just an introduction to what Big Brothers is all about. It's not a commitment, it's just getting to learn more. So guys, they're going to play this game on Saturday. It's a show up and play at Fred George Park from ten am to noon. Just show

up, show up right to play a little flag football. So there you go. Brought to you by Barno Heating and Air. It's the Morning Show one on WFLA look back at the radio program in one hundred and eighty seconds or less. Our verse today Romans five, six through eight. That's where

we started. Romans five versus six through eight. Big stories in the press box today, African American groups calling for the ditching of the quote racist Francis Scott Key naming a new bridge after a late black congressman saw coming from a mile away. Quite no kidding. Video shows atf block to camera before a deadly pre dawn rate of an airport executive home in Little Rock. It didn't announce it. They they did nothing but go in and this guy was defending

his home and he's dead. It's just anyway. A CIA officer admits to an undercover journalist that the FBI did, in fact have agents at least twenty in the January sixth protest. I think we have video evidence that they were encouraging people to commit crimes. Is that entrapman? I mean? Why anyway? We can go on from there? FBI director countering all of the negative publicity, all of the negative actions which some members of the FBI engaged in.

At the behest of the Biden administration announced the arrest of an eighteen year old for a violent plot to attack churches in Idaho. He had pledged himself to isis Gueni punk killer, wanna be jerk. That was good Anti Israel agitators shut down the Senate cafeteria. Fifty arrested. Nothing will happen to him. Told you the truth about a Moss talked to Rich Mariano's former ATF assistant director about a vaping bill and the governor's signature, or veto talk to you, Mars
