Transcript

Speaker 1

Well, good morning, friends, and welcome. It's primary day here in the Sunshine State on the Morning Show with Rustin Scott with Jose running the show. Yes, he's running the show. I am at his control. It's great to be with you though it's August twentieth. More on that in just a few moments, Show fifty two nineteen. As we do, we will start with some scripture and again pointing out the six six, seventeen sixty three segment is all about bringing back the idea of starting a child's day with

God's word. Supreme Court ruled in June my dad's birthday. In fact, June seventeenth, nineteen sixty three, that just five days before my third birthday, thank you very much, that teachers could no longer read scripture in front of a classroom, could not lead in prayer, because that was a government establishment of a religion whatever. Conversely, we've had people say we kicked God out of school. No you, no, we didn't.

I would love to see the face of the person who thinks they can actually kick God out of anything when they realize one day in eternity they didn't. The whole earth is his footstool, my friends, God is not going to be intimidated by you or me, or anyone or anything else. He's not going to worry about our failings because he knows them before we fail. He gives us the right to be wrong. He gives us the right to fail. He gives us the right to ignore him,

to deny him, to say it's no God. And of course I remind people who have that belief that their name is in scripture. If I showed you that your name is in the Bible, would that change your mind? Because it says right here. Only a fool says there is no God. Say your name's right there. But we want to instill in you what really is your responsibility to lead your children, to speak into your children's life.

God's word. Bible says that if you teach him the ways of the Lord, as he grows old, he might wander, but he'll not depart. He'll return to those things that were placed deep in and inside of him or her. These are truths, These are things to anchor life to. And so we're going to scriptures that are designed for you to speak to your children. Maybe put a note in the lunch box every day. Think about what that

would do just for you. The night before your kids are in bed, before you go to bed, you pray, Lord, guide me to a scripture that I can place in my child's lunch bag or lunchbox or backpack or whatever it might be that they get every day their notebook, depending on their age, something that's age appropriate for them. Our scripture today is first Thessalonians five, verse sixteen. Ready two words rejoice always, no matter what happens. Rejoice always.

And then, maybe just as a little corollary, teach your child to ask God, what's in this for me? Because you sometimes have to just tell yourself when something's going a little south, Okay, God, You've got something in this for me, and then you can rejoice in that. Scripture says to count it all joy when you face trials and troubles. Why because God's doing something in the midst of that. So there you go, ten past the hour inside the American Patriots Almanac, we go next start to

unpack the show. First night of the DNC happened. Yawn, it's the morning show with Preston's gut. Got a blog going up in just a little bit, Rowan Atkins and mister Bean and if you're younger and you don't know who mister Bean is, You've missed a treasure. He's one of the greatest exports of the UK. He's just hilarious anyway, if you've not been paying a ten one of our research assistants, Rob, he's in fact a research assistant supervisor. Rob has been busy pointing out the decline of the

English culture. They're arresting people for insulting others if something is considered an insult online, and they're threatening to extradite people in America who post things that they find insulting. I'm not making any of this up, none of it. It's insane. It's gotten so bad. Rowan Atkinson came out and basically did a press conference and delivered a nine minute speech on the dangers of where England was going.

I'm pointing out that in March of two thousand and two, I correctly predicted that political correctness, which is now defined as wokeness, would be the unraveling of our culture. If you really look at what's happening in our country, the root of it is wokeness, is political correctness. How dare

you question the settled science of global warming? Remember it was global warming, but then the warming didn't really happen all the time and the way they predicted it would, And al Gore's movie made prediction after prediction after prediction, and none of them came true, none of them, not one, so they had to call it something else. But then what they called it wasn't scary enough. Their polling showed

it wasn't scary enough. So they've been constantly chasing words because in the world of political correctness, words are a weapon. And suddenly the leftists of the world who claim to be the big tent people, the people of tolerance, we accept anybody. Yes LGBTQ are element op yes plus as long as you agree with them, even if you're covered by the alphabet and you disagree. Hello, Martine Navtlova, you're out because political correctness, ideology, Trump's victim class, any class,

you're out of the herd. Anyway, I'm posting this on my blog page, the nine minute speech by Rowan Atkinson. I've got a link to a story that offers example of how lunatic the nation has become. Now they're trying to put fixes in place to Section five dealing with speech whatever to the UK authorities. You're all ugly, a bunch of fat people with old, bad teeth. What are

you can do with me? Huh? Do you realize I would be arrested multiple times every day I do this show because offence is in the eye of the receiver. That's why the expression is I take offence at that, because you have to choose to be offended, you have to choose to be insult Well, that's not in the eye of the beholder. It's in the eye of the person that thinks they're being insulted. So anybody can claim

insult over anything. August twentieth Adams Franklin Jefferson recommend the motto e pluribus unham to Congress in seventeen seventy six out of many one E pluribus unim. Eighteen thirty three. Benjamin Harrison born in North Bend, Ohio, twenty third US President. Nineteen eleven. New York Times sends the first all around world telegram via commercial service. It takes about sixteen minutes to circle the globe. Nineteen twenty first commercial radio station

broadcasts regularly scheduled programs. Eight MK begins operation in Detroit. It would become WWJ when it's got three letters, it's iconic. If a radio station has three letters, it is iconic, just saying I worked for one koy. Nineteen seventy one, Texas Instruments introduces the first electronic pocket calculator in school. When those things came out, every kid wanted a calculator and teachers hated them. And now it's standard operating procedure

to use one. It's comical. And then nineteen seventy seven, NASA launches Voyager to, the first spacecraft to travel to Uranus and Neptune, seventeen past the hour back with an interesting announcement. Getting fired up writing my blog in the brake, reminding myself of being banned by Facebook for speaking the

truth about COVID. My truth is science, and the truth that got me banned and got our company in trouble, And I got in trouble for about a minute before I got on a conference call and said, you're all wrong. I'm right, and I can prove it. The simple truth was, you can't vaccinate against a coronavirus. A coronavirus is a cold. It's a common cold. We haven't stopped one of those yet. You cannot. It has never been done. There's never been

a shot to stop a coronavirus. And I pointed out the science, and how ironic that Lil Owe me and people just like me. I wasn't alone. I didn't rely on anybody else on that one. I knew that. I knew that science. I knew that fact because years ago I looked, and why can't we cure the common cold? Well, the common coal is a coronavirus, and there's never been a vaccine developed to this. And then the coronavirus comes out and they're telling us that a vaccines because side

I said, no, it's not. It will not prevent the spread of the disease. I got in trouble for that. What's the root of that political correctness? Where did it get its foothold? It got its foothold when they started banning games like Tag on playgrounds because little fatty fats couldn't play the game. They banned the game Tag from playgrounds in California because they said it was mean to the child. Who is it? And it's like, have you

have you ever been on a playground? You have stooges, The chunky kid doesn't play Tag because it's no fun you want a kid that's got a little shift to him to be it. That's the fun of the game tag. It isn't for everybody. We never made any we never made And here I am a little overweight, so it's ironic, right, so I'm a fatty fat it's we never made a child play tag. Never Hey, you're gonna play tag, pal, I'm saying, or where we we'reworthholding your twinkies? What? It

was no fun? There were lots of other games. That kid could play football, he was a beast in the snow. Come on, that kid was first picked the behemoth in the snow. But in tag, I don't think so. That's just the way it was. But political correctness said, no, no, no, that's not nice. And that was the story. In March of two thousand and two, first week of doing the Morning Show with Preston Scott. I still remember it. Schools in California to this day ban the game tag on

the playground. Not all the schools, but some. And that was the first sign of political correctness that I remember seeing in the news. And here we are, here we are global warming. I call global warming covid LGBTQ. You can't say anything anymore. You can't say to a lady in the workplace, your hair looks nice today, you missogynist pig, you look nice today. You are harassing me. Sorry, you look like a dog. My bad. You can't say anything now in the UK. It's a joke, so I'm posting

about it. Hey, here's the announcement. I'm gonna run just a minute here. Late Kai tump Kai tump Kai Trump, the granddaughter of the former President Donald Trump. Who's pretty sporty golfer for an older guy. His swing's awful, but he can hit it. And his putting is laughable, but he makes putts. Who cares no room in the scorecard for comments, Right, golfers, you know this who cares? He gets it around. She's got a golf game, though. That girl's got herself a golf game, and she's going to

be playing at the University of Miami. She is going to play golf at the University of Miami. Breaks my heart. She needed to come to Florida State. But I still want nothing but the best. She's a brave young lady speaking at the Republican National Convention on behalf of her grandpa and doing it well. So best to her twenty eight past the hour, Big stories in the press box. It is primary day. Local voting in Tallahasse begins at thirty two minutes.

Speaker 2

The Morning Show with Preston Scott on News Radio one hundred point seven Dublin, U FLA.

Speaker 1

Here, let me summarize the Sorry I need to pause, it's called laying out. Let me summarize the DNC last night. If you're working thirty five to forty hours a week, making fifteen dollars an hour, and you can't buy the house of your dreams, the car of your dreams, and all of the nice luxuries of life, the system's wrong and you're being robbed and screwed, and Kamala is going to make it better. There you go, There you go. I just spared you hours of torture. That's that's it.

And and I'm gonna go back to an old card that I played back when Florida was doing the unthinkable and putting a minimum wage escalator in our constitution in perpetuity, which was the it'll be the single biggest mistake you've made until you pass legalizing weed and abortion. And I'll have plenty to say on that stuff down the road. But if not, if fifteen dollars an hour is what we ought to be paying as a minimum wage, why not forty why not seventy five? Seventy five dollars an hour?

See when I have that discussion with college students who whine about minimum wages and people that are working minimum wage jobs, and I suggest that maybe you ought to just get better certification, skills, experience and improve yourself and make yourself more valuable because these are jobs meant for brand new workers, high school kids, first time workers. That's the minimum wage jobs. That's and we should have entry

level wages that teach people how to work. But when you go that route and you say, well why not seventy five dollars an hour? Why not one hundred? They then all of a sudden they go, what, Well, you can't do that, And I say why not? And here's what happens. All of a sudden, economics one oh one back doors itself into the brain. Well because an employer can't afford that, well, why not, Well they'd have to raise prices on oh oh, So you're saying that that

wages impact the price of goods and services. See once that light bulb goes off, then you back them back down to the fight on minimum wage and what reality does to it. But that's what the DNC is all about, making promises and lying about economic principles. And see, the thing about economic principles is it's economics is connected at the hip. It's like conjoined with math, and math is

full of certainties. Sure, you can throw infinity out there if you like, and you can have a great argument on pie, but the reality is that the core and the basics of math are founded on certainty. I am totally off the page here. I haven't even touched the big stories. I just I felt the need to capsule the promises being made last night and the absurdity. And I can only hope that I know that you people that listen to this show, even you Democrats that listen,

you're not that stupid. You're just not You're not going to buy that nonsense. You're just not. Anyway, forty one minutes past the hour, I'm gonna rearrange some things, get to the big stories next.

Speaker 2

This is the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1

All Right, Steve Stewart's coming in today because it is election day and the polls are going to open for those of you in the eastern time zones in Florida in seventeen minutes close twelve hours later, and We're going to reset the races today because I'm just getting so many email and I'll be honest with you, y'all are worrying me because I think to myself, what have I been saying? What have we been talking about? We've been I mean, Tallahassee Reports has been covering over and over

and over the issues surrounding the local races. But it's an interesting flip that's happening here. John Osmond wrote a piece in Tallassie Reports talking about how as Commissioner Jeremy Mattlowe is since he's been elected, the numbers of Democrats voting in primaries and elections is dropping every single term,

every single election cycle. And Osmond is hypothesizing that perhaps Commissioner Mattlowe's negativity and his attacks on fellow commissioners, on anyone who doesn't agree with him and Ryan Ray, the head of the local party, and his padawan, Jack Porter, that those attacks are backfiring and the electorate's getting disgusted. You know, as I pointed out time and again, I don't have a dog in this fight other than what's best for the community, which is my dog and every fight.

Because there are no Republicans running for these local offices other than school board, and in that regard it's nonpartisan. It doesn't matter, and I really don't care. I'm looking for the right person anyway. Big stories in the press box Israel is agreeing to a US back proposal for a ceasefire Hamas. I'm just going to make a prediction upfront. Hamas is not going to agree, and I'm going to keep telling you why. I don't believe they have hostages

to exchange. I think they've killed most all of them. There may be a few, but I think they're all dead. And that's why this thing's going to keep getting strung out. And I'll remind you that even these terms I wouldn't agree to if I were Israel for one simple reason. They started it. I know it doesn't sound very adult, except you can't equate prisoners of war i e. Palestinian terrorists with civilians, women and children that were taken from

their homes. You can't equate an attack on a military installation or a communications center with going into a kibbutz and killing everybody in it. You can't make that equation. You can't. You cannot allow that to become an equivalent. Go back to my math discussion earlier. There are certainties in mathematics. That is a certainty. You cannot allow that. But that's just me. It was pretty funny the Harris Walls tour kicked off their bus tour in Pennsylvania and

it was so underwhelming the crowds. It lasted only a few hours and Kamala jetted out and went to Chicago for the DNC. But it's been a disaster. The crowds are not there, they're not what They're not at all what's being reported. And again they're holding these faux concerts to try and draw a crowd. That's what's drawing a crowd. It's not Kamala and Tim. They're going to do their best. Democrat voters in Chicago are sounding off, and there's a bunch of them much better off under Trump than we've

been under Biden. Undecided voters, quoting one a woman, I want to hear more about what Harris is going to do because being black is one thing, but we have black people to disappoint us. Being a woman is one thing, but we've had women disappoint us. So the main thing is what is your platform? Good luck on that platform. And then lastly, the final big story, the two hundred and ninety two page report is done House Oversight, Judiciary

and Ways and Means Committee. Joe Biden has committed impeachable conduct and defraud of the United States to enrich his family. That's from the report. He absolutely committed crimes, high crimes, not just misdemeanors, and he needs to be thrown in jail along with most of his family. Forty seven minutes after the hour, Vivek Rumaswami has some advice. We'll talk about it next.

Speaker 2

It's the morning show and Trustan Scott's on news radio one hundred points that a w f LA.

Speaker 1

I'm want to share my thoughts on the local ballot primary. Some races will be settled wherever you live in Florida, depending on the charter that that you're part of. But but there will be some races that are that are going to be settled. Local races tend to be that way if there's just two candidates or if there's three and one gets fifty percent plus one. So we'll unpack all of that, what's at stake, and you just need to know, going in big picture, what your vote will

do or or will not do. And I can only challenge all of you do your civic duty. It matters. It matters big time because some of these races will be settled today. That's a guarantee. And we'll explain all that with Steve Steart just a little bit. Vivek Ramaswami. You know a lot of people have been concerned that Donald Trump took his eye off the ball. Was the campaign was caught off guard with Kamala Harris. I mean, weren't we all? I was? I didn't think there was

a Kamala was Joe's insurance policy. I bet Joe is shocked that Kamala is the nominee because Joe picked Kamala because she was his insurance policy. She's the person that you put behind you, next in line to ensure nothing happens to you. Hey, remember something happens to me. She's in charge, and here she is the nominee with the wind in her sails or is that Tim Walls? I forget? Anyway, the concern was that Donald Trump was going to be undisciplined,

and he was. Now I think he's tightened down his ship a little bit. I think jd Vance has a lot to do with that, because jd Vance is so good on his feet, so good in front of the media, so good with Q and A, and I cannot wait for he and Tim Walls to be on the same stage. But vick Ramaswami said, look, Harris has an extensive record. Republicans can assail from her past support for eliminating private

health insurance to banning fracking. I think if we're able to say this is our vision for the entire United States, and we go down the list and say, here are the policies that Kamala Harris has not only stood for in the past, but actually taking steps to implement, I think we can win this thing by not just a small margin, but something that resembles a landslide. That's the discipline. And he points out the first presidential decision she made

was picking Tim Walls. Tim Walls is a guy who makes statements and takes positions that are so extreme they gain laughter in an audience. You're kidding, right, You're kidding, vec is right, and I hope people keep Trump between the rails and on them. Steve Stewart joins me next five minutes past the hour, second hour of the Morning

Show with Preston Scott. This is when you would cue the bum put ump bump, bump, bump bump, put them uh, the election day music as we as we talk about the primary polls are open in the eastern time zones across the Sunshine State, and I wanted to take some time this half hour and zero in on the local voting for Leon County, the city of Tallahassee. And joining me this morning is the executive editor of Tallassi Report, Steve Stewart. Little bonus time. Yes, how you doing. I'm good.

Good Election day.

Speaker 3

This is the so when you get your test back and find out, you know who's thinking, what, whose message worked? A lot of implications, So you're looking for, you know, what part of the community is voting, what are they're voting on, the implications of decisions made you know, years ago now come up and get thrown into campaigns and you know what did voters buy and what did they discard?

Speaker 1

Steve, one of the things that I think is really important for those of you listening to the program and you're maybe even weighing in or weighing whether you should vote or not today. Oh, it's just a primary, it is it. I'm concerned because we really ought to find a new name for it, because with some races it is the general election.

Speaker 3

School board racially decided today. District for Laurie Cox, Jeremy Rogers, I mean, yeah, that will be decided. So yeah, and some of the other races with more than one candidate can still be decided. And just remember the Republicans, Independence, Democrats can all vote today. Yeah, and so yeah, that's that's that's.

Speaker 1

The tough issue to try to get across the people. Yeah, there are certain things, and I've got sample ballots here in front of me, folks, the Republican, the Democrat, and the independent, the non affiliated ballot here the sample ballots, and there's some overlap. There are differences, but those overlap where that ven diagram and all three come together. Those races are potentially general election races today. And I can't overstate the importance of people voting. Yeah.

Speaker 3

Well, also some of the bigger names like Neil Dunn and Rick Scott, they have primary opponents now obviously they are heavily favored, but these campaigns get so nervous when you get these wildcards. So this is there's Republican primaries for those two for those two elections, which will be on every ballot in the well most of this Rick Scott.

Speaker 1

One will be on every bollotle on county. I don't want to focus on the Democrat or the Republican only primary stuff. I want to talk about the things that everyone's going to vote on today and where races are likely to be settled or we end up in a runoff. Explain how that works when there's three or more candidates. Yeah, if you don't, if no one gets fifty percent, is it a fifty or fifty plus one?

Speaker 3

Fifty plus one, and then you've got to get fifty plus one and you win the election out right. In August, which an example four years ago, Commissioner Jack Porter got fifty two or fifty three percent of the vote and she had two opponents, and so she won outright. That was the COVID year, heavy absentee voting, early voting. So now in that race there's three and in the other city commissi ration there's four. Now if you don't get fifty plus one, it's the top two finishers go to

to November and square off. So that'd be another two months of campaigning, which you know in some situations a lot of people use issues early on and they sort of you know, sort of throw out, they throw everything out there, and if they don't win, they've you've got two months now. For example, commerce support not going to DIBA, there's gonna be another need of debate, so that gets re upped again, right, yep, So things so it does make a difference.

Speaker 1

Let's go through the races that are going to be on everyone's ballot and even the ones that people because I've got people writing me saying what should we do about property appraiser? And property appraiser is kind of I think you and I look at it the same way like we do Supervisor of Elections. Are they doing their job because it's kind of a nuts and bolts type thing, right,

and it's also a partisan race. Interesting in this case though they're both Democrats, right, and a ke Naka Yemi, who was a former Leon County Commissioner went for the property Appraiser's office one by all accounts, has done his job just fine. His biggest detraction is that his accent is very thick and some people struggle to understand him. Right.

Speaker 3

You know, I use that site a lot. I'm in the reporting, and it's you know, he's done a good job. From that standpoint, I think that, you know, the only critique I would have is him getting involved in some of the other some of the other races. You know, But again, if you look at that, it's a very important position. You don't want to screwed up property praisers office. And from that standpoint, he's done a decent job. But again, you know, is a is a Democratic primary.

Speaker 1

Has Ken Preston, who is his opponent, has he pointed out reasons why A Keen has failed at his job.

Speaker 3

And I think that's one of the biggest things that I look at as a reporter when and even when people come talk to me about running, if you don't have a clear distinction, you better have something else. And I think that that's going to be the problem in that race. Incumbancy is huge.

Speaker 1

Steve Stewart with me, we've got races to talk through, and you know, I certainly have my views, I'm sure Steve as he is, but We're going to try to keep this broad overview. If you vote this way, this is what you're getting. If you're voting this way, this is what you're getting. And just inform you the best we can objectively as possible. Ten past the.

Speaker 2

Hour, thought or story you want to share, write them at Preston at iHeartRadio dot com. Yes, he knows how to read. Well, actually it's producer reads him. He doesn't know how to read. It's the Morning Show with President Scott.

Speaker 1

You know. See pointed out there are only a handful of races that will be on everybody's ballot, maybe one or two or three really, because it depends on whether you're in the county or the city. It depends on whether you are in District two or District four with the school board. And so we're gonna we're gonna touch on all of these races, but will with the proviso that you know you're if you're living in District two, you're not gonna vote on District four for the Leon

County school Board. I mean, these are kind of no brainers. But the county judge, we've talked about this oftentimes over the years. It's it's all but impossible to really make an informed decision on who you're going to put in as a judge because you just don't have much to go on. So all you have is a few forms and some ambiguous answers that they can give, and you almost have to form an opinion, Steve, based on how they give those answers. You look at that.

Speaker 3

But I also early on was told bio is huge, biography is huge, and you know, deciding who you want to vote with judges I've met all three of these have not. I think that this is going to go to November because neither one's going to get fifty percent, neither of the three.

Speaker 1

Sidney Brown, Robert Churchill, Lashawn Riggins, right, And so.

Speaker 3

I actually ran into mister Churchill the last couple of days. And so if it does go, which I think it will, to November, I think, you know, we'll spend some time on getting the information out about the two candidates that are left, and then you'll have to make a decision. But again, the judges race is that's something that has maintained, that's decorum here locally over the years. They have not

you know, they're not supposed to they have this. They have the Florida Bar that puts out some rules that they're supposed to sidelines. Some guylands and most for the most part, they've they've stuck. I haven't really seen a judge race go off the rails.

Speaker 1

But so they all in the forums that that I watched with my wife, just bits and pieces of them. All of them had qualities that were admirable. A couple of the judges candidates uh Sidney Brown and Lashawn Reagan's they used the word equity quite a bit.

Speaker 3

And that's the word that has been used a lot, and it was used in some of the forums on economic growth, economic development, infrastructure, and for.

Speaker 1

Some people that's a buzzword that is negative. For some it's a buzzword that's positive. Right, Let's talk now about the school board races district to Roseanne Wood and Daniel Seruto. So Roseanne Woods and nun quantity.

Speaker 3

I've talked to mister Zeruto, who is very involved in his UH his he's got kids in school or a kid in school, so he was on.

Speaker 1

A UH parent He's not new to the schools. He's not new, although he's new.

Speaker 3

To run for office, and that that sort of sticks out, which is not a you know, a bad thing, but it's just so tough breaking through if you don't have an issue.

Speaker 1

He has not.

Speaker 3

I would argue that he has not had that one or two issues that that separate him from Roseanne Wood. And so that's district I believe five. It's District two, District two, which is out out east and so again, you know that's a there's a difference there.

Speaker 1

If yes, if there's something that.

Speaker 3

You know, if you if you've looked at the forums, there's definitely a difference. But it's not something that said, oh yeah, this race has become front and center because of this exactly.

Speaker 1

I do have an interview with Daniel Serudo. Roseanne would declined the invitation to sit down and talk and explain her record, her decisions, hers or votes. District four Lori Cox and Jeremy this is the one that's taking up all the oxygen. And this is this is real quick. This is the part you know, this is the nonpartisan race that has become partisan. Lori Cox is the only Republican that is in local government and so the Democrats have have targeted her.

Speaker 3

So I think this comes down to is Lori Cox has been around for a long time, has been involved in the school system. Are her relationships that she's developed over that time going to trump the partisan advantage in that district that a Democrat has Lori Cox's. They've tried to paint her as extreme. Uh, that's she's not extreme. I mean you can you know, you can just look at the votings. Yeah, and so that's going to be

interesting to see how partisan. If if anybody could overcome a partisan gap, it would be her because of her connection.

Speaker 1

To that district and to the education system. And Jeremy Rogers is backed by the one Tallahassee pack with Jeremy Mattlow.

Speaker 3

Yeah, the main reason he's in this is because of Jeremy Mattlow and their move to sort of move the community to a progressive side of things.

Speaker 1

That's the other side of that. And yeah, he would say otherwise, he would say he got in independent of any of that.

Speaker 3

Yeah, well, I know, but he's getting help from Commission Mantlowe's pack on Tallahassee.

Speaker 1

And some of his answers just don't make sense.

Speaker 3

He can't explain when you're calling somebody extreme and you get asked, how are they extreme, and you can't explain that.

Speaker 1

I mean, that's a problem. More to come with Steve Stewart on The Morning Show with Preston Scott. Final segment. Here's Steve Stewart. It is election day. For those of you in the Central time zone, your polls will be opening up in just under forty minutes. But for the rest of the state of Florida, the polls are open until seven o'clock tonight. Do your duty and get out there and vote. County races any that exist being will be taking place in them in November. Two races Superintendent

of Education. It's a Democrat only primary at this point, right, so that's going to bump to a general election come November. And so we're left now with the City of Tallahassee. And I cannot think of a time that it is more it has been more crystal clear that you are choosing a direction for this community. Yeah, and that's not just us speaking, I mean, it's it's I think that's what they're saying. Well, we've said this a couple of years ago, and now it's even now it's become part

of the lexicon, the language. You know, this is a progressive movement.

Speaker 3

And so City Commission c one, Jack Porter, the incumbent who what I'll be watching on this is a district one District four, which is when I say districts, it's the areas of voting within the city.

Speaker 1

Everybody's voting. But the Northeast.

Speaker 3

Commissioner Porter at twenty twenty carried Northeast of fifty two to fifty three percent of the vote coming off of the corruption trials, and she was preaching, you know, ethics.

Speaker 1

Interview on the Morning Show with Preston Scott advertised house reports.

Speaker 3

Yeah it was very accessive, very different person back there, but you know, yeah, and so it'll be those are the two she ran against. Elaine Bryant, who was appointed was never on a ballot, And if you look at the comparison to the votes in the south Side, she only got fifty four percent of the South Side vote compared to Diane Williams Cox, who two years later got

sixty four percent. So those are the two areas that I'm looking at in terms of figuring out, you know, who's you know, who's going to win this race and if they have a chance to end it in u in the primary and so but again, the thing with the commission reporter, is she When you become an incoment, you're running as a as a fresh face, a lot of people give you the benefit of the doubt. And

that's what happened in twenty twenty. Now it'll be interesting to see four years later, are people voting on a record, and I think the record is not something that just happened three months ago. It's going on for four years. So we'll see how she does in northeast and I mean Rudy Ferguson I would assume would do better than Elaine Bryant did in the South Side because of his uh, his work there and so but that's gonna be an

interesting race. The implications on the progressive side of this is that this is going to have if if Commission Reporter wins and died him in Johnson defeats Curtis Richardson, So you'll have the progressive majority, Mattlow's majority on the City Commission. They'll have a lot of implications for what happened, you know, the last two years, I mean the and there's gonna be some this John may or John Daily is going to be in the you know, in a

focus here. I mean, there's there was a tax increase, and that's become that's become the issue that the progressors are trying to fool a lot of voters on. Is it to explain this, Well, they voted, there was a tax increase that was allocate, we had a violent crime spike, and the city Commission voted three to two to spend nine million dollars to raise propertections and spend million dollars on new police officers and law enforcement technology.

Speaker 1

Is it important to point out that in the term of Anita Favors Thompson as city manager, the police were underfunded for better than a decade. So we wrote big on that.

Speaker 3

It was huge and we were let in crime le you know, in the state of Florida for three four years. So they've they decided to vote to do a property tax increase. I think you could have done it without increasing property taxes. But that's how you know, that's how local government works around here in a lot of times.

And so now what has happened is to progressives who don't like law enforcement, it's very obvious in the last four years they voted against the tax increase, and now they're trying to tell voters that they're being fiscally conservative, when actually Kush reporters on record is saying that she basically voted against it because it was funding law enforcement.

She rather sees social services funded. So that's that's going to be the interesting part to me to see if that message, you know, if they were able to sell that to voters that just pay a little bit of attention to local politics, although you would argue in the primary people that vote are probably more engaged. Yeah, so that'll be an interesting thing. But that's what their whole messaging is on. If you look at their video messages, you look at their mailers, I voted against the tax increase.

Speaker 1

Donavan Johnson even goes one step further.

Speaker 3

It says that she's going to she's going to roll back the tax increase, but she has no plan and that's a significant cut.

Speaker 1

Are you going to cut law enforcement? We're gonna get the money to fill that up. I think it's important to point out, folks that whether you're voting in you know, with those of you voting in the city races, these are nonpartisan races. The only active candidates in the seat to race or dot Van Johnson and the incumbent Curtis Richardson. The other two are not serious candidates. I'm just gonna say it up front. They're not. Website money's raised tells

you everything. In the other race, I would point out Lewis Gilbert, Rudy Ferguson, Jack Porter. The three of them have been to some forums. Only two of them have been to most all forums. Jack Porter did not choose to participate in some forums. No, she did not.

Speaker 3

And so I think the key in that race. You know, I've talked to both Rudy Ferguson and Lewis Dilbert. They are on They're good on the issues they know, I mean, the way they speak.

Speaker 1

I would argue that Rudy.

Speaker 3

Ferguson is a little bit more pro business and a little bit more grassroots. Louis dilboll Work's at FAM you very articulate on what his positions are, ye and so, and there's clarity there, there's yeah, that's a great word on that. With the Curtis Richardson race, this comparison real quick. Curtis Richardson is sort of the dean of the City Commission. He's been around a while. He reminds me of some

other candidates that got in. You know, you never know when your last selection is right, So you go look, you go back to when Nick Maticks ran against Cliff failed fresh face. Cliff Faal had been there for sixteen years, right, got upset. Brian Delo's been there for twelve fourteen years. Brian Welch upset him. Fresh face Brian Welson never run before. The difference here is CURTA. Richison has been Curtis Richardson has been around for a while.

Speaker 1

There's not a fresh face in this race.

Speaker 3

And so it's going to be interesting to see if Dodamon Johnson's past her record, you know she was.

Speaker 1

In er connection to Jeremy matt Low, pays off.

Speaker 3

Exactly because I think Curtis Trichardson, if you look at some of the mailers that I've seen, you get this air of stability. You may not agree with everything, but he's look, he has not run for the Taxing carease.

Speaker 1

He explained to it. It is my duty. This.

Speaker 3

You know, we were going through a violent crime spike. This is what I was told we needed to do, and something we haven't seen a lot of and we've reported, you know, violent crime is down. Yeah, and I mean, robbery is down double digit, so it's there are a lot of issues at stake. The progressive majority, you know, we'll see what they could get done, but this is that's definitely their move. The California money, I think though, is another issue that's resonated over the last two weeks.

Speaker 1

We'll see how what kind of impact that has on voters. Thanks for coming in, Thank you President. All Right, we're laid into the news. Twenty nine past the hour.

Speaker 4

Use radio one hundred point seven double UFLA, do your.

Speaker 1

Duty, you get out and vote. It matters. Thirty seven thirty eight past the hour, big stories in the press box, just real quickly. Here can the snapshot it here? US thinks it's close to a deal, a cease fire Israel Hamas. The problem is Mas has not agreed to it, and I don't think it will. I don't think those jokers have any interest because it requires an actual deal. They have to bring hostages out, and I don't think they have many. I'm telling you, I also don't think israelowed

to agree to the deal. I think it's a bad deal. I think it's a bad precedent. You don't equate civilians taken out of their homes and villages with men of war who flew in in paragliders, assault vehicles, armed with guns and bombs and knives. Those aren't the same, They're just not. The Kamala Tour didn't go real well out of Pennsylvania. The theater of the DNC can be summed up with one thing. They're promising all of these things that you should have if you don't have what everyone

else has. See Conservatives believe in equal opportunity. Socialists one equal outcomes, and they want to overthrow capitalism and everything that's happened under Barack Obama. Then Joe Biden is a disruption of capitalism. It is an erosion of free enterprise. It is a slow strangulation of an economic system that raises people out of poverty. There's no other system that does it ever in the history of the world. It'll

be interesting Black voters in Chicago. Certainly many are going to stay the course and vote with Democrats, but many are leaving the party. I told you it was happening years ago. I've been documenting it with the walk Away campaign, putting testimonials on it's been happening. And then two hundred and ninety two page report out of Congress detailing the impeachment impeachable conduct I should say of Joe Biden when he was in office as vice president, and in fact,

let me put a dollar figure on it. They have totaled it. And the committee said that Biden and his family and its associates received more than twenty seven million from foreign individuals or entities since twenty fourteen, another eight million in loans, and those loans have not been repaid, and the paperwork supporting the loans does not exist. Meaning wink, wink, nod, nod, here's a little money, do me a little favor. That's pay to play, just saying forty one minutes after the hour.

So I'm a little funny in the news.

Speaker 4

Sort of use radio one hundred point seven double UFLA.

Speaker 1

A little follow up here. Election day is here. This is Jack Porter, Jack for Tallahassee. This race could be decided today and we need your help. Jack is funded by everyday people. That's just not truthful. That's just the one Tallahassee pack is funded eighty five ninety percent with out of state money and one or two big donors,

not everyday people. Jack stop it, working to invest in underserved areas, protect our environment, bring the voice of everyday people to city hall, like the people calling police murderers, those kind of people, that kind of voice. Whatever. All right, this is funny. This is funny climate activists Seymour on my blog page where I point out the ugly truth the political correct I've got a great blog up with a video of Rowan Atkinson, otherwise known as mister Bean,

taking on the UK while in the UK. Brave of him, but he's using his notoriety. He's in essence saying you're not gonna arrest me because I'm famous, and sadly you're arresting people who aren't. That's wrong. It's a brilliant speech that he gives a press conference. Protesters managed to shut down and suspend flights temporarily at colognebon Airport and Nuremberg Airport. They glued themselves to the asphalt. Okay, here's what I want to point out. This is what made this story

funny to me. Eight members of the last generation. Does that sound dramatic? The last generation? That's the Greta Thunberg, you know type weirdos. Dear you, you evil people, not leaving the planet for us children? What if we done to deserve this? You're only evil with les generish little scowl on our little face. Can I point out the fun of this? All right? They glued themselves to the runways, planes had to divert. What happens when planes divert, They

fly longer, They pollute more. Planes on the tarmacs filled with passengers, they just keep running. Those engines just are spinning. They're just polluting more. But here's the best part. The glue they used is made of petroleum based products. Every glue, virtually every glue on the planet is petroleum based in one form or another. So they're slattering this stuff on and they're putting their hands on it, and all that stuff they bought, they just they just boosted the petroleum

industry and all those airplanes had. Okay, we can't land in Nuremberg. Okay, we can't land and clone, We're gonna just keep flying. We're just gonna keep pollute in the air. Meanwhile, somewhere out there, Greta Thunberg is living in high style. She's traveling by car and bus and plane. And you

know she's not sailing everywhere using wind power. She's she's And the irony of all is that even if she used all electric vehicles, she's still got to rely on fossil fuels to charge it up, to make it work, to build the frame for her little bikes or her little skateboards, or her little cars. Or the tires, how about the tires? No petroleum in those rubber tires? How dare you point out the hypocrisy of my position?

Speaker 5

We?

Speaker 1

How dare you?

Speaker 5

How dare you?

Speaker 1

Little amp? All right, it's forty seven past the hour, come back with a little email. Manly minute still to come here in the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 2

Good morning, and welcome to the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Customers always right Preston at iHeartRadio dot com. Preston at iHeartRadio dot com. Heard your comments this morning about unfriendly et cetera, service and food establishments and elsewhere. I'm happy to say, friend and I had a wonderful service experience from a young man at Glory Days, which is a local restaurant. However, I find that many young people, especially high school and younger, have not been taught good manners

attitude of gratitude. For example, many young people I know rarely and I do mean rarely, say thank you, whether it's for a compliment or a one hundred dollars gift card for their birthday. I can't remember the last time I got a note of thank you. Another story, another friend and I went to a fast food establishment a couple weeks ago. We had to punch in our order on a kiosk, get our own drinks, retrieve our order at the counter.

Speaker 1

On the bill was a place for a tip. Both of us wondered who the tip was for. We decided to give it to ourselves. Lol. Then this is the most absurd of all. Recently, I had hip replacement surgery, so I had several appointments with a particular outlet. An AI aimed gives the name, provides the over the phone assistance. You're asked to evaluate the assistance provided by the AI. Have you been asked to leave a comment on the assistance you receive from an AI? I refuse. Thank you

for the note. Yeah. First of all, we spent some time on this yesterday, and I've spent some time on this frequently. Businesses that invest in good customer service will reap rewards. If you are a worker, and you invest in good customer service yourself, you will at some point reap a reward. And here's where it may come. It

may come in tips, and that's awesome. But where it's more likely to come is someone you're serving at one point is going to own a business and they're going to look at you and say, what do you want to do? You in school? Are you what kind of career? I have a business, and I would I would love to speak with you about you because you are different and I think you'd be successful working with me. See that's what's going to happen if you, if you really

do your job well, someone's going to notice. Someone's gonna notice because it stands out in such a profound way. It just will. It'll stand out. Time for a manly minute. Mail by birth, mail mail by birth, man by choice. Remember these are ideals. This is a perfect one. It's it's it's seasonal, it's election day. If at all possible, take your son with you to the ballot box. They have little voting areas for the kids. Teach them. Go over your ballot with them. Explain why you made the

choices that you made. Teach your son civic responsibility. We elect our officials in this country, and we hope that it's a fair election. It's a precious, precious rite time for our number three of the Morning Show with Preston Scott five minutes after the hour, third hour Morning Show with Preston Scott. Those of you that are they're waiting for me to spend a lot of time talking about the DNC. I just I don't have it in me

because I can't. I can't fake my disgust. Night one was about giving you whatever you think you deserve at the expense of taxpayers. Day one was pushing Joe Biden out the door and into vacation. Literally, he left and is on vacation. He's in California on vacation. Apparently they didn't even give him prime time on the night that was supposed to be about him. They are so Joe Biden is so radioactive and toxic to the voters of America.

The Democrat Party wanted no part of putting him front and center in front of anybody because they all lied. They all lied about Joe's health. Nancy Pelosi on CNN came clean, admitting to the fact that she has been denying. She I had nothing to do with I and she came clean. I did what I had to do in pushing Joe out. It's just it's tragic. The best thing to come out of the Democrat National Convention so far

is free vissectomies. That is awesome. Line up as many illiberals as one of them and guys, go get them, Go get yourself snipped. Do it that. That's just the only thing though. I've got a couple stories here dealing with COVID. Former NIH director Francis Collins, doctor Francis Collins, who worked with Anthony Fauci to lie to the American people about COVID. He admitted to radio host Hugh hewittt that the US collaborated with the Wuhan Virology Laboratory. They

lied about funding gain a function research. They're nine hundred pages of documents that show that he lied. The two of them did a propaganda attack on any doctor, any scientist anywhere around the world. I have doctors writing me from all over the country, near and far pointing out the pressures that they've been placed under and why they were being quiet and they were just quietly offering people

options of treatment. They didn't speak out because they figured if I speak out, I get fired and lose my job. So I'm just going to keep treating people and helping them, and I'll just give lip service to whatever they have you considered getting the vaccine? Have you considered? And then they get that done. Nurse leaves the room. Doctor says, okay, there's some options. Here's some other treatments available. Collins and Fauci attacked doctors scientists around the world. They arranged to

censor them, cancel them. So someone walks up to Collins and unpresumably his wife at a restaurant. Hey, doctor Collins, you and Ralph Barrick and Anthony Fauci deserve to be in prison for the rest of your lives. This is all recorded. You give so much blood on your hands. I hope you sleep well at night. And remember the name briand Dresen, because you left her strand that after she was severely injured by the COVID vaccine. Collins mumbles something in response, The man says, in your study, you

do know her. Her name is Brian Dresen. Have a good night, and he walked away. Dresin's a forty two year old mother from Utah, who has been permanently disabled after the Astrosenica vaccine she was in the clinical trial. She developed side effects just hours after being injected arm tingles, blurred vision, headache, ringing ears, vomiting, quoting I walked into the clinic, fine, I walked out, beginning of a nightmare.

I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. In May of this year, Astrosenica announced that it was withdrawing its COVID vaccine, acknowledging in court it caused quote rare but serious side effects from bosis from Mosa Pennia syndrome, a condition involving blood clots and low blood platelet counts. Any of that

sound familiar? Exactly ten minutes past the hour. Tim Waltz's role in COVID and its treatment blog is up Political Correctness Rowan Atkinson dealing with what's going on in the UK, which is it's the natural end result of what happens when political correctness goes unchecked. Political correctness showed up decades ago. It got refined during global warming and the al Gore hysteria. That was well, the al Gore lies. They were lies. There were lies in that film. There were predictions that

were just faulty, untrue. They've not not one has come true, not one. I mean you think you'd think that even they'd get lucky and get one right, right, I mean, you make a hundred guesses, surely you gotta get one right because if your I mean, throw throw down some money on a roulette wheel, you're gonna get one. You're gonna get red or black, even odd, you're gonna you're gonna get something right. At some point they got nothing,

and anyone that came against that got canceled. That's political correctness. Then it then it really took shape during COVID. Why because it's more overt controls. Look at what Tim Walls did. Have you seen the video. I didn't know about this until someone sent me the video of the of the National Guard. I think it was marching down residential streets, bullhorns telling people what were we told during COVID Just

get outside right, get out in fresh air. People are sitting on their front porch and they're being shot at with paintball guns. Get inside or else? What the heck is that? But it was worse under Tim Walls. Minnesota experienced its own version of what happened to Governor Cuomo in New York. Remember that's what led to Cuomo having

to resign in disgrace. His policies killed people. Eighty percent of COVID related deaths in the state occurred among residents of long term care facilities, nursing homes, assisted living and that's because Tim Walls bought into the lie and ordered them moved as needed. At one point in May twenty twenty, over eighty percent of the state's deaths were among residents and long term care facilities. Despite the data, Walls doubled down on the policy. This was what everyone was doing.

This was not a mistake. It wasn't like no one thought about this. There was complexity and how you deal with this. No, there wasn't. No, there wasn't. That's a lie. That's what they want you to believe. It's complex, You stupid people. You don't understand. See, that's how elitists work. You're not enlightened. We are. We know the science. They're there there there, Come on here, let me hug you. Now, just go lock yourself up, Okay, if not, we'll arrest you.

All right. That's a good Minnesotan. That's how elitism works. And oh, by the way, to spin this into here and now, the Socialists of America want you to believe the other socialists they didn't do it right. We will invokes, so we will. We'll We're not gonna call it socialism because it's got a stigma to it, all right, there's a little dogma attached to it. What we're going to

do is going to be better for you. Just trust us because the socialists that you read about that led to communism, and you know they weren't as enlightened as we are. We've learned. Friends. It starts in communities like Tallahassee. Don't give it a foothold. Don't let that nasty, ugly camel get its nose under the tent. Sixteen past the hour, they're suing, Yes, a lawsuit next. All right, clarification here, because we correct ourselves when we make mistakes. The description

on the video that I was sent was wrong. The paintball thing was during the riots, not during COVID. They were telling people to get off their porch and get inside, so they fired paintballs at them. Someone's just sitting on their front or get inside anyway. All right, lawsuit here anyway, thanks for the correction. Appreciate the note. I think it was the person who sent me the video to begin with said the description was incorrect descriptions It was during

COVID anyway. Two teenage boys who think they're girls are suing New Hampshire education officials because there's a new law that bans transgender students from competing in school sports that match their gender identities but not their biological gender. Parker Terrell fifteen and Iris Turmail fourteen. Terrell and Turmail interesting, along with their families sad argue that that law violates Title nine. New Hampshire's law goes into effect on Monday.

I don't know if that was yesterday or next week, but it requires so called transgender students to compete on school sports teams that match their biological sex. So they filed a lawsuit. Tourelle this from the article, who's a rising sophomore at Plymouth Regional High said her school his already barred her him from participating on the girls soccer team. Not being allowed to play on my team with the other girls would disconnect me from so many of my

friends and make school so much harder. I just want to be myself and learn to play and support my teammates like I did last year. Turmail, rising freshman at Pembroke Academy Pembroke, has not been explicitly barred from participating, has not been participated explicitly barred, but intends to try out for his her girl tennis and track teams. I'm a transgender girl a guy. I've known that my whole life.

Everyone knows that I'm a girl guy. I don't understand why I should shouldn't get to have the same opportunities as other girls at school because you're a guy and you have all the opportunities in the world. As a guy, you likely won't make the team, but you have all the opportunities in the world. Children are being represented by the by GLAD and the American Civil Liberties Union of New Hampshire, et cetera. Some of the comments are are not real warm and fuzzy, and I feel bad because

the parents I think are guilty of child abuse. That's just a personal conviction of mine. I believe that if you allow your children to actively parade around believing there's something other than they were created to be, that you are guilty of child abuse. You're not helping your child, you're not empowering your child. You're crippling your child. Because the overwhelming majority, super majority of these children will just

grow right out of it. You provide love and guidance, and I, in no way, shape or form, believe that these kids should be bullied at all, no way. That's wrong. But it's equally wrong to force people to participate in someone else's delusion. You might do that at a birthday party here and there, where someone says I'm a dinosaur, a little kid says I'm a daughter, and so everyone comes dressed up as dinosaurs and they o the dinosaur party.

That's not what we're talking about. We're talking about somebody that will, as they grow older, likely attempt suicide, that will have life altering body mute relating surgeries and treatments. And then we wonder why they commit suicide. Well, it's because they're not wired to be that. They're wired. They're internal makeup and being is what they were biologically born to be a boy or a girl. And when you allow that to be cross wired, then there's an internal

conflict that can never ever be resolved. When that child dies and one day that like we all will die one day and that body is unearthed by time, that will be the body of a male or a female. It will not be the body of a transgender. It will be what it is, what it's created to be, and the DNA can never ever change. It will be

the DNA of a male or a female. And so I think that the parents of these kids are sick, and I think that they are guilty of child abuse, and I think that it's just a dog on shame this stuff is. They're attempting to normalize this. Thankfully, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis applauding the American Society Plastic Surgeons. Their job is to try to clean up some of this stuff and to fix people. They're coming out against it now. They are opposing gender affirming care for minors. Thank you.

You know, if someone thinks, at the age of nineteen twenty twenty one, they want to go through with this, that's on them. But thankfully we've got this group now that is saying no, and the Governor's applauding that decision, and so well done. Twenty eight after the hour, big stories in the press box, and so much more still to come. Here in the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 2

You have a story you want to share, write him at Preston at iHeartRadio dot com. Welcome to the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1

Thirty six past the hour. Tomorrow, JD. Johnson will be in for t Strickland Charlie unable to join us. JD kind enough to make a little time to come back in continue to talk about the DNC. Pete Bootage, the Transportation Secretary. I'm just I'm just gonna chuckle. I'm not

gonna say anything. But he was on with one of the guys from Fox and Friends in Chicago and they made him watch video of black voters that are not sold on Kamala at all, and it was just it was kind of fun just to watch him react to that. Joe Biden pushed out the door at the DNC. The DNC can be summarized by AOC speech last night where she did what Democrats always do and they promised to

raise taxes. Kamala's saying she's raised in taxes, and my friends, I don't think it's going to be limited to people just making four hundred grand because the math doesn't work. You can't do what she wants to do without raising lots and lots of money. You can't. And just remember there's never enough. You know. I could sit here and talk all day long about the big stories of Biden

committing impeachable conduct defraud in the United States. That's a two hundred and ninety two page report that comes out of the United States House Democrats Blacks in Chicago saying they're not sold on Kamala, and again, not all of them. And I'm quite certain there are many Black Americans that think that she's awesome. There are a lot of Black Americans think Trump is the bomb, you know. I mean, whatever the energy behind the camps, it's faux energy for Kamala.

Go to a Trump rally and just turn it on Newsmax. Uh pick it up on the networks. None of the mainstream networks are gonna pick up it. You might get a gyp in on the Fox, but Newsmax covers is his rallies, and they're they're incredible. The energy is just next level. They're packed. What's important to understand is that you've got to keep in mind raising taxes on people

and redistributing wealth doesn't solve problems. Look at people who win lotteries and how frequently those people who win exorbitant prizes end up bankrupt. There are people that have just never been made and never acquired the skills to just live within their means. And when you give people money, the COVID relief of ten thousand dollars per family of four taught this lesson. People elevated their lifestyle for that

extra ten grand. They spent it on stuff, they didn't bank it, and so they committed to things that now they've elevated themselves. So now we've got credit card debt at record highs because people have adjusted to a new lifestyle level and they've not adapted. And when you give people money that's not theirs. That's what you get. There's an addiction to the money, as there's an addiction to alcohol, or an addiction to drugs, or an addiction to porn

for that matter. It's just a different kind of addiction and it fails the big picture issues. And these are things that are very simple to explain. They're not easy, but they're simple. Forty minutes past the Hour, come Back and a New definition of agony is next.

Speaker 2

The Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1

All right, this is not going to help those of us who are still scarred by COVID and the relative trust that we have with the medical profession. Let's just say I am very thorough when I talk with doctors about anything, and then I weigh and measure and research and pray about my response to whatever is told to me. So let me just stay up front, this story will

not help USA. Today. Florida Department of Health administrative complaint gastro entrologist doctor Ishwari Prisad placed on probation by this state Board of Medicine. Now we're going to get into a little detail here after two colonoscopy procedures went very wrong under his care June twenty twenty three, two incidents same day. In the first incident, Prosad improperly delegated tasks

to a surgical tech. The tech did not have the medical license, but was instructed by Persad to perform at least one inappropriate task from a list that includes insertion scope manipula, manipulating an instrument over polyps are tissue, or removing polyps are tissues. So the tech did one of those. But now we're going to get to the nitty gritty here, the doctor is hearing impaired uses hearing aids that are in compliance with what the complaint calls minimum prevailing professional

standards of care, allowing them to hear and communicate during procedures. However, doctor Prisad was not wearing his hearing aids that day, and so for at least one, if not both, of the procedures detailed in the complaint, he could not hear the patient screaming in pain. In one case, the patient was not fully sedated. I don't need to tell tell you where that probe is going for a colonoscopy. It's

going right up into your hello. And and so the good doctor did not have his hearing aids on, so he couldn't hear a blasted thing as his patients are screaming in pain. It reminds me of an occasion when I was I have a condition where I will every you know, and I hope it's behind me. I hope I don't have it again. I've had maybe three or four issues in the last twenty plus years of vertigo. They come with very little warning, and when I get vertigo,

I go hypothermic. My body temperature drops, and at one point it dropped to ninety three degrees. I was in the studio happened here, and Eric Eggers was with me,

and it was not pretty. So I got rushed to the office the emergency urgent care across from the hospital, and they took a digital thermometer reading underneath my tongue and they were like, that can't be right because it was registering ninety three and ninety three is hypothermic, and so they they went to another digital and then they went to another and they all said ninety three, and then they went rectel. I'll only tell you that in the panic, I'm quite convinced the nurse missed. You know

what I'm saying, I may or may not. I'll not confirm or deny. I might have screamed an expletive, and I may or may not have had a new place to go to the restroom from that. I've never hurt so badly in all my life than when my temperature was taken at that moment. But it was confirmed at ninety three. So yeah, anyway, I'm well acquainted with this kind of pain, but I just there's something about this scene and the doctor just blissfully moving right along with

the procedure because he can't hear the patient screaming. Just like I said, it's not gonna help, but it's in the news. Forty seven minutes past the hour, we will wind it up with hot dogs next. All the polls are open throughout the state of Florida now, so get out there and vote everybody. I'm playing the odds here, especially those of you listening to my show. You're the people we need out voting. I know there are a few contrarians, and that's good because while you're li listening,

there's hope for you. I've changed many of mind over the years. I had a guy write me years ago. He would write and he would go, you're loyal liberal listener. And then he wrote maybe a year or so later, and he would write intermittently and he wrote, you're somewhat liberal listener. Then it was you're not so liberal listener, and then the final your former liberal listener. Because over time, the wisdom of conservatism wins out.

Speaker 2

Not me.

Speaker 1

I'm just making the case the ideals of conservatism take root because they are the source of freedom. Anyway, Jose over there in Studio one A are you a hot dog eater. Do you enjoy a good hot dog? Oh? Yeah, it has to be Nathan's. It has to be nathan it has to be. So if you're at my house and I'm not grilling Nathans, you're not eating hot dogs, right, you're kidding No chance, you're kidding me.

Speaker 5

Nope, love me some Nathan's. And they're not paying me to say that. By the way, I'm not.

Speaker 1

Quite sure what to do with what you just said because I grill hot dogs frequently so and I do not grill Nathan's. I grill ballpark all beef hot dogs. You have bad tastes, sir. No offense, well, offense taken. Remember what I said earlier. We choose to take offense. So I'm choosing to be offended by that. So when you do a hot dog, how do you how do you prepare it? Grilled or boiled? Uh? Grilled oraor fried? Okay?

Speaker 5

And uh ketchup mustards onions?

Speaker 1

Okay? Relish, Yeah, I'm not a big fan of relish. Okay, okay, fair enough. Chili Oh love me a good chili dog. M m oh yeah. Apparently a Chicago style hot dog is served with tomato, not ketchup. Honestly, friends, that explains a lot.

Speaker 2

Brought to you by Barono Heating and Air. It's the morning show on WFLA.

To tomatoes, tomatoes, Oh well, it takes all kinds, I guess now. Hot dogs are just one of those things, as we just heard people are weird about. I add a Nathan's at the original Nathan's to Coney Island. I went to the very first Nathan's ever ever, the first Nathan Stand ever, and had a Nathan's telling me about Nathans.
