Speaker 1 (00:01):
Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good
morning everyone, and welcome to Morning Run. It is Friday,
June sixth then I'm Amy Robots.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
And I'm TJ Holmes and all this Friday Morning Run, Folks.
We just tried. We tried to come up with the
public breakup. That's the biggest we can think of, the
ugliest we could think of. We google it, and nothing
compared to what we're seeing in DC.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Right, Not a celebrity breakup, not any sort of divorce,
public divorce even compares to what we're seeing.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
And what we're seeing now is between Elon Musk and
Donald Trump, two billionaires, and their bromance is over and
a big, beautiful breakup played out in a very ugly
and public way yesterday. Meanwhile, Musk lost more than just
a friend in the fight. He lost thirty four billion
dollars in personal wealth as Tesla stock tanked.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Coincidence or not, a massive military parade will shut down
DC next weekend, costing taxpayers more than thirty million dollars,
all to celebrate the army. It just so happens to
also be President Trump's birthday. Plus, a judge has bloged
Trump's second attempt now at preventing Harvard from enrolling international students.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Also on the run this morning, President Trump and First
Lady Milania maybe heading to China soon after Trump's call
with President She of China. Also, the judge threatens to
remove Diddy from court, a star witness is discredited by
the defense, and baby Oil is back in the headline.
There is so much to tell you about in the.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Didty trial, and authorities are issuing a new warning about
the devil in the Ozarks. The former police chief and
convicted murderer and rapist still on the run and possibly
far far away. And Tom Cruise has a new title.
He made it into the Guinness Book of World Records.
And TJ broke his own rule never fall asleep during
(01:58):
an NBA final game.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Apologies to the Indiana Pacers. I will never ever make
that mistake on you guys again. Yes, I scream at you, baby,
you can't go to sleep because you never know what's
gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
I fell asleep in the first quarter.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
And sure enough, ah yeah, I flew it last night.
But there's so much to get into. But the run
has to start this morning in Washington, DC.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
It is over.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Elon Musk and Donald Trump are going through a very
public divorce right now. It might actually be the most
expensive divorce in history. We'll get into that in just
a second. And they're giving us all a lesson and
how not to break up with someone. First of all,
you have to do it in private, right, robes, We
all know that you should certainly never do it on
social media. You should never make threats to your ex
(02:47):
or her insults at your ex. Folks, they did all
that yesterday in a big, beautiful billionaire breakup for the
ages and robes. It was right there for.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
All of us.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
It was jaw dropping, and it was like every ten minutes,
something new, what happens. It was ridiculous. And you know,
we got some sort of indication that things perhaps were
bubbling behind the scenes because Musk had been critical of
Trump's major legislative package making its way through Congress. But Tuesday,
Musk took things further and called Trump's big beautiful bill
(03:19):
a disgusting abomination. Uh oh, you knew, We knew that
was not going to go over. Well, we just had
no idea how badly things were going to turn.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Yeah, I did think it's going to be this bad.
So Trump was asked about that an Oval Office event yesterday,
and he said he was very disappointed in Elon, But
he also said this, Elon and I had a great relationship.
I don't know if we will anymore. But then he
went on to suggest that Musk had plenty of opportunities
to complain about the bill to him in recent months,
but said he only did so after he found out
(03:52):
the ev mandate wasn't in the bill. The ev mandate
that's a tax credit that's supposed to help people buy electric, which,
of course Elon Musk is in.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
The business office, right, Okay, so that response was fairly measured.
I was hopeful. Yeah, he didn't go rogue, he didn't
get too nasty there. But see that's when Musk started tweeting,
saying in response whatever, then saying that the bill can
be big and ugly or slim and beautiful. Slim and
beautiful the best way. But after that Elon went nuclear,
(04:25):
saying in another message, without me, miss Trump would have
lost the election, Dems would control the House, and the
Republicans would be fifty one to forty nine in the Senate.
Such ingratitude, ingratitude, ooh, telling Trump that he's not been
grateful to Musk for basically buying him into the seat
of president. You know that really didn't go over well.
(04:49):
And how did you think Trump was going to take that?
Speaker 2 (04:52):
So here he goes on truth social Trump says, and
I quote, Elon was wearing thin. I asked him to leave.
I took away his EV mandate that forced everyone to
buy electric cars that nobody else wanted, that he knew
for months I was going to do, and he just
went crazy. The President followed up that with a not
so veiled threat to hit Musk financially. Quote, the easiest
(05:14):
way to save money in our budget billions and billions
of dollars is to terminate Elon's governmental subsidies and contracts.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
But he didn't stop there. In another message, Trump wrote,
I don't mind Elon turning against me, but he should
have done so months ago. This is one of the
greatest bills ever presented to Congress. And then things took
to mud slinging because Musk then fired off this tweet.
Time to drop the really big bomb, Donald Trump is
in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they
(05:46):
have not been made public. Have a nice day DJT
and then one more for good measure, mark this post
for the future. The truth will come out.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Oh my goodness Trump.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Uh well, also with this was a time out there
is that Trump should be impeached and that JD. Vance
should become president. Musk liked that post. And one more
thing we mentioned there. This is very very important and
should be scary and a reminder and a lesson to
us all here Musk said that he would immediately begin
to decommission the Dragon X spacecraft at his company SpaceX. Okay, fine,
(06:23):
but why is that such a big deal? Because right
now that is the only way NASA can get Americans
to space, unless you want to hitch a ride with Russia.
So Trump is threatening to take away the government contracts.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
That he has to bill ships and work with NASA.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
He says, fine, I am going to take this ship
out of commission, and you an entire country, depends on
me to get your astronauts to space.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
It's just the clashing of two massive egos. I mean,
this is yes, billionaire bickering billionaires. We were looking at
all the lower thirds, all the the agraphics that news
stations use, and they were just having some fun.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
With this, this last nugget, just to bring it home
the ridiculousness of this. I was wondering, they're tweeting and
whatnot and putting out messages. Are they tagging each other? No,
they're not, and they can't. They're both posting on different
platforms that they both own.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Oh my god, this is a.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Fight between billionaires and they're tweeting at each other on
x which Elon owns, and truth Social that Trump owns.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
That. This is the most ridiculous fight I've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
I've never this is fine in my life, ever seen
anything like that. I mean, we've seen family fights. I'm
dealing with one right now, a little sister feuds.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Kind of as ugly, to be honest, it is.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Actually I feel like this is contagious. We need to
stop this now, all right, Moving on next up on
our run. Even if Musk takes a win publicly in
his fight with Trump, he definitely took a huge loss
yesterday financially. Musk lost and estimated thirty four billion dollars
in per personal wealth yesterday because his Tesla stock dropped
(08:03):
by fourteen percent.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
So he lost thirty four billion, but the company itself
lost about one hundred and fifty two billion dollars in value.
The company had taken a hit since Trump got into office,
but it actually shot back up last month afterward that
Musk was leaving his government job and would be dedicating
more time to being the CEO of Tesla. Well, most
of those gains were wiped out yesterday, just in one
(08:25):
public spect.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
When you start slinging mud, everybody gets dirty, right, I mean,
that's what's happening, all right. Next up on our run,
a massive military parade will take place next weekend in
DC to celebrate the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of
the US Army. It all happens on June fourteenth, which
also happens to be President Trump's seventy ninth birthday.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Yes, but whatever, it's going to look like, folks, it's
not a birthday celebration. This is a celebration of the Army.
It's gonna look, however, like some stuff were not used
to seeing in the United States, probably because this parade
is going to shut down cities, streets, restrict air travel
in and out of Reagan National Airport because they're going
to be fifty Army helicopters flying over the huge military
(09:08):
parade is going to showcase serve to five hundred troops,
twenty eight tanks, twenty eight Bradley vehicles. Don't they have
fireworks and they have one of the flyovers.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Yeah, the flyovers are with vintage warplanes. There are going
to be cannons, there's musical acts and performances. But here's
my favorite part, and yes, there is a fireworks display.
The Army's Golden Knights are planning to parachute onto the
ellipse right in front of the White House and present
an American flag to the waiting birthday boy aka President Trump.
(09:38):
They did describe that as a birthday gift that they
are going to be presenting. So instead of a birthday
cake with candles, he gets an American flag delivered to
him by the Golden Knights parachuting in It kind of
sounds like Mission impossible or something.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Yeah, they're going to have what two hundred thousand people,
so this is going to be a massive event of
some way. You can sign up online and get tickets,
I do believe.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Yeah, there's limited tickets.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Okay, so the price tag for all of this, I'm
not sure who's going to be paying. I assume just
taxpayers thirty to forty five million dollars for this birthday celebration.
Whose birthday of the Armies or Trump's youtubs or both.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
I saw it. I thought I saw them actually kind
of explaining it the White House as an unofficial birthday party,
but mostly mostly celebrating the Army's two hundred and fiftieth birthday.
Of course, all right, next up on our run, Harvard
has won this round. A judge has block President Trump
from keeping visas from students coming to the US to
study at Harvard. The judge issued a temporary restraining order,
(10:35):
saying there could be immediate and irreparable injury if the
ban takes.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Place, So there's a hearing schedule for June sixteenth. Judge
said the ban should be blocked at least until that
hearing takes place. On Wednesday, Trump announced his administration is
going to deny visas to any student trying any student
trying to come to the US, if that student was
trying to come to attend Harvard. Remember the President previously
trying to stop Harvard from enrolling international students by revoking
(11:00):
its certification in the student Visa and visa the student
visitor and exchange program.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
That effort was also blocked by the same judge, by
the way, so the administration was trying to find a
work around, but this latest effort has met the same
fate by the same judge. The Trump versus Harvard feud
has been going on for months now. It all began
with the President accusing the school of not doing enough
to fight anti Semitism. Kind of feels like the Musk
(11:29):
fight as well. Everything just keeps escalating and escalating and escalating.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Trump's got a.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Lot of public fights he does going on right now.
That's up on the run here and welcome sign here.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
No, Trump's not in a fight on this one.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
The sign that things could be calming in the trade
war between the world's two largest economies, the US and China.
President Trump and China's President She had a ninety minute
phone call yesterday that Trump described as a very good call.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
So good in fact, that Trump said the two men
invited one another and their first ladies to their respective countries.
And so he said, he and Milania accepted the invitation,
and we'll be going to China at some point.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Welcome news to hear there.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Also next here on our run Day seventeen of testimony
in the Didy trial and Didty almost got kicked out
of his own trial? Stay with us on this one.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Here, folks.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
There's a lot of headline making and consequential moments in
the courtroom yesterday, which featured testimony from another highly anticipated witness.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
First to what led to the judge threatening to remove
Diddy from the courtroom. It all happened during the testimony
of Brianna Bongalin. That's the woman who claims did he
dangled her over a seventeenth floor balcony will At two
separate points, Diddy was looking directly at the jury, perhaps
even one juror in particular, and he was nodding his
head aggressively.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
So the judge caught it both times and issued this
stern warning and I quote from the reporters in the
room quote, I could not have been clearer. There was
a line of questioning where your client was nodding vigorously
and looking at the jury. And there was a subsequent
moment we had a sidebar and I looked and I
saw your client looking at the jury and nodding aggressively.
(13:07):
This is absolutely unacceptable. Yes, this is a big, big no, no,
we all know this. You can't have any interaction with
the jury of anybody in a court room. But the
judge said, if he saw Diddy do it even one
more time, he'd remove him from the courtroom.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
Oof to the actual testimony now, and another big moment
was when defense attorneys produced a hotel receipt that showed
Ditty was actually in New York at the time that
Bonglan said she was being dangled over the balcony in
La She said, you know what, I might be off
on the exact date. Later in the day, the jury
then heard from Jane. She is testifying under that pseudonym
(13:40):
to protect her identity, and she says she started dating
Combs in twenty twenty and felt obligated to participate in
the so called freakoffs because Ditty paid all of her
bills and her rent and he gave her cash.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
We'll just summarize a lot of her testimony. That was
a lot there, but she says she spent ninety percent
rooms of their relationship having sex with other men. In
these sessions, she talked about the control Combs had over her.
Her hair had to be a certain way, her nails
had to be a certain color. She says she got
to a point where she couldn't work or travel just
in case did he needed her to fly somewhere for
(14:14):
a freak ofugh. The single mom even says she kept
child care lined up just in case.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
Now she is expected to be.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Back on the stand today and to be on the
stand for the next several days.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
It sounds very much like what Cassie vent tour Fine
had been testifying to. It's eerily similar, all right. Next
up on the run he escaped in Arkansas prison, and
now the Devil of the Ozarks has possibly left Arkansas altogether.
Investigators say they believe Grand Harden has evaded capture and
was able to flee the state.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Harden is a convicted rapist and murderer who was the
subject of that HBO Max documentary Devil in the Ozarks.
He was serving a decade's long prison sentence. He's a
former police chief. He escaped from this Arkansas prison on
May twenty fifth by wearing a law enforcement looking and
just walked right out the prison.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Gate and a court. Finally. Authority say they believe he
has fled, but also that he has extensive knowledge of
the Ozark Mountain region and could also possibly be hiding
in caves or in rugged terrain that he is very
familiar with. They also released a rendering of him with
facial hair. They think he may have changed his look.
But this is a part of the country that you're
familiar with. You border many states.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
I guess the four states there.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
You got Oklahoma, you got Missouri, you got what am
I missing? The Kansas and Arkansas. That's crazy in that area,
in that corner, and that's a rugged terrain. I went
to school up there and I did not mess around
in that terrain at all.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
It was scary to me. All Right, is they here, folks?
Speaker 2 (15:37):
When we come back, we're going to continue our run
with Tom Cruise getting a new title.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
He is a Guinness.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
World record holder. Also coming up, my apologies to the
Indiana Pacers. I feel so stupid, stupid, stupid. All right, folks,
let's continue on this Friday morning run with Tom Cruise.
(16:04):
He's made it into the Guinness Book of World Records.
He officially holds the tile four the most burning parachute
jumps by an individual. I didn't know it was a thing, U,
but he is now that word record holder. He made
sixteen jumps for a stunt in his latest Mission Impossible movie.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Yeah, I love the quote from the editor in chief
of Guinness World Records. He said, this, Tom doesn't just
play action heroes. He is an action hero. And you
know what, it's so true if I mean, we all
know he's known for performing his own stunts and movies,
but in this latest movie, Paramount Pictures actually posted a
video on YouTube of Cruise just before he makes those
(16:43):
attempts of that burning parachute jump with stunt corners, and
here's what Cruz says to the stunt coordinators just before
he does this. I'm going to be deploying. If this
is twisted while it's burning, I'm going to be spinning
and burnt. I'm gonna have to kick out of the
twist and then ignite it within ten second.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
That's what we've seen.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Yeah, he kind of said it sixteen times. He did
that dangerous thing he just described there sixteen times. The
video shows Cruise making the jump, showing them all edit
it together to show each one in rapid succession, with
the Mission Impossible theme behind it. I didn't watch it.
I was doing something else as we were working this morning,
but you were over there literally filling your arm like
you were having chills, like, oh my god, it's got
(17:23):
it is.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
It's worth a look if you can check it out
on YouTube because it is so amazing. I think we
forget you know, you know, he's an actor, and yeah,
he's done it. He does his own stunts, okay, but
when you actually see what he did and how many
times he did it, and it truly is deathifying the
previous one.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
You remember the last movie he went off the cliff in.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
That Norway Yeah, motorcycle, Yes, he did that a dozen times.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
That's the YouTube video before it.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Yeah, you can see that.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
I watched that too, honestly, because both I just you
forget how dangerous. But he even says safety is the
number one. You know, we're not going to take any
extra risks, but might got any extra risks that looked
risky in and of it.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
He's a movie star. That guy is wonderful.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
All right, final leg here, and I broke my own
rule last night, went to sleep before the.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
End of a game.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
See, there was no reason to stay up and watch
Game one of the NBA Finals because the Oklahoma City
Thunder were up by fifteen points.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
In the fourth quarter. Game is over.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
I've been up since two thirty in the morning. This
was two o'clock at night. It's fine, the game is fine.
It's in the bag. Go to sleep.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
I did.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
And then the Indiana Pacers came roaring back and their
star Tyre's Halliburton hit a shot with point three seconds
to play to win it final score one eleven to one.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
Ten ropes. I missed that, man.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
This is the fifth time this postseason that the Pacers
have overcome a deficit of fifteen points or more to win.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
That's my bad. So they've done this, that's my bad.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
I know you knew the Knicks were doing that, so
that's why we had to stay up as well. But
that game winner with point three seconds to play is
the latest game winning shot in an NBA Finals game
since nineteen ninety seven, when Jordan hit a game winner
against the Utah Jazz. As in, Michael Jordan, you know
you have always said this to me, and this is
why you stay up. But at a certain point, Babe,
it was Thursday night. You get up at two thirty
(19:04):
every morning. I get up at three and yeah, ten
o'clock at night after a long week, that I couldn't
stay up.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
What I think.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
I fell asleep at nine. I was like, I'm out
of here. I can't do this. I'm impressed that you
stayed up till ten, to be honest.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
And you know what, I should have stayed up until
eleven because I missed history. He did something that hasn't
been done in the finals since Jordan did it in
ninety seven, and I fell asleep.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
You know what, though, did you see it in replay?
Did you see it the next morning?
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Spoken like a woman who doesn't watch sports. You don't
watch you have to watch it live. Oh well, it
is a day for people to get into public spats.
But before you go watch your day, folks, something we
like for you to consider.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
It is our Friday quote of the day.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Yes, and it is from our Gabby Burnstein. I say
our Gabby Bernstein because we get to sit down with her.
We're going to be putting our conversations out with her
this week and please look for them in your feed
because what she has to say is truly life changing.
But is our quote of the day, courtesy of Gabby Bernstein.
And this is an affirmation that she tells herself that
(20:06):
she recommends to all of us today, I no longer
need to change the world around me. I just need
to change the way I see it. Ain't that the truth.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
I'm gonna take that with me today. We've got a
bunch of stuff going on today I'm gonna change. I'm
not gonna change any of it. Look at you taking breaths.
You're ready to go deal with your daughters.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Yeah, we have to have a come to Jesus moment.
When you've got two kids coming back from college, you
haven't lived together in a while, suddenly in rooms right
next to each other. Sometimes things get a little rocky.
And now I'm gonna have to be a leader. So yes,
I'm gonna take this to heart. And truly I can't
change anything or anyone. I can only change the way
I perceive it or react to it. So once again,
for everybody, I hope this helps you. It's certainly gonna
(20:52):
help me today. Today, I no longer need to change
the world around me. I just need to change the
way I see it. And with that, thank you Gabby,
and thank you all for listening to us on this
Friday morning run. I'm Amy Robots.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
And I'm TJ. Holmes. We will will be running with
you all real soon
Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Good
morning everyone, and welcome to Morning Run. It is Friday,
June sixth then I'm Amy Robots.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
And I'm TJ Holmes and all this Friday Morning Run, Folks.
We just tried. We tried to come up with the
public breakup. That's the biggest we can think of, the
ugliest we could think of. We google it, and nothing
compared to what we're seeing in DC.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Right, Not a celebrity breakup, not any sort of divorce,
public divorce even compares to what we're seeing.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
And what we're seeing now is between Elon Musk and
Donald Trump, two billionaires, and their bromance is over and
a big, beautiful breakup played out in a very ugly
and public way yesterday. Meanwhile, Musk lost more than just
a friend in the fight. He lost thirty four billion
dollars in personal wealth as Tesla stock tanked.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Coincidence or not, a massive military parade will shut down
DC next weekend, costing taxpayers more than thirty million dollars,
all to celebrate the army. It just so happens to
also be President Trump's birthday. Plus, a judge has bloged
Trump's second attempt now at preventing Harvard from enrolling international students.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Also on the run this morning, President Trump and First
Lady Milania maybe heading to China soon after Trump's call
with President She of China. Also, the judge threatens to
remove Diddy from court, a star witness is discredited by
the defense, and baby Oil is back in the headline.
There is so much to tell you about in the.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Didty trial, and authorities are issuing a new warning about
the devil in the Ozarks. The former police chief and
convicted murderer and rapist still on the run and possibly
far far away. And Tom Cruise has a new title.
He made it into the Guinness Book of World Records.
And TJ broke his own rule never fall asleep during
(01:58):
an NBA final game.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Apologies to the Indiana Pacers. I will never ever make
that mistake on you guys again. Yes, I scream at you, baby,
you can't go to sleep because you never know what's
gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
I fell asleep in the first quarter.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
And sure enough, ah yeah, I flew it last night.
But there's so much to get into. But the run
has to start this morning in Washington, DC.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
It is over.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Elon Musk and Donald Trump are going through a very
public divorce right now. It might actually be the most
expensive divorce in history. We'll get into that in just
a second. And they're giving us all a lesson and
how not to break up with someone. First of all,
you have to do it in private, right, robes, We
all know that you should certainly never do it on
social media. You should never make threats to your ex
(02:47):
or her insults at your ex. Folks, they did all
that yesterday in a big, beautiful billionaire breakup for the
ages and robes. It was right there for.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
All of us.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
It was jaw dropping, and it was like every ten minutes,
something new, what happens. It was ridiculous. And you know,
we got some sort of indication that things perhaps were
bubbling behind the scenes because Musk had been critical of
Trump's major legislative package making its way through Congress. But Tuesday,
Musk took things further and called Trump's big beautiful bill
(03:19):
a disgusting abomination. Uh oh, you knew, We knew that
was not going to go over. Well, we just had
no idea how badly things were going to turn.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Yeah, I did think it's going to be this bad.
So Trump was asked about that an Oval Office event yesterday,
and he said he was very disappointed in Elon, But
he also said this, Elon and I had a great relationship.
I don't know if we will anymore. But then he
went on to suggest that Musk had plenty of opportunities
to complain about the bill to him in recent months,
but said he only did so after he found out
(03:52):
the ev mandate wasn't in the bill. The ev mandate
that's a tax credit that's supposed to help people buy electric, which,
of course Elon Musk is in.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
The business office, right, Okay, so that response was fairly measured.
I was hopeful. Yeah, he didn't go rogue, he didn't
get too nasty there. But see that's when Musk started tweeting,
saying in response whatever, then saying that the bill can
be big and ugly or slim and beautiful. Slim and
beautiful the best way. But after that Elon went nuclear,
(04:25):
saying in another message, without me, miss Trump would have
lost the election, Dems would control the House, and the
Republicans would be fifty one to forty nine in the Senate.
Such ingratitude, ingratitude, ooh, telling Trump that he's not been
grateful to Musk for basically buying him into the seat
of president. You know that really didn't go over well.
(04:49):
And how did you think Trump was going to take that?
Speaker 2 (04:52):
So here he goes on truth social Trump says, and
I quote, Elon was wearing thin. I asked him to leave.
I took away his EV mandate that forced everyone to
buy electric cars that nobody else wanted, that he knew
for months I was going to do, and he just
went crazy. The President followed up that with a not
so veiled threat to hit Musk financially. Quote, the easiest
(05:14):
way to save money in our budget billions and billions
of dollars is to terminate Elon's governmental subsidies and contracts.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
But he didn't stop there. In another message, Trump wrote,
I don't mind Elon turning against me, but he should
have done so months ago. This is one of the
greatest bills ever presented to Congress. And then things took
to mud slinging because Musk then fired off this tweet.
Time to drop the really big bomb, Donald Trump is
in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they
(05:46):
have not been made public. Have a nice day DJT
and then one more for good measure, mark this post
for the future. The truth will come out.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Oh my goodness Trump.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Uh well, also with this was a time out there
is that Trump should be impeached and that JD. Vance
should become president. Musk liked that post. And one more
thing we mentioned there. This is very very important and
should be scary and a reminder and a lesson to
us all here Musk said that he would immediately begin
to decommission the Dragon X spacecraft at his company SpaceX. Okay, fine,
(06:23):
but why is that such a big deal? Because right
now that is the only way NASA can get Americans
to space, unless you want to hitch a ride with Russia.
So Trump is threatening to take away the government contracts.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
That he has to bill ships and work with NASA.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
He says, fine, I am going to take this ship
out of commission, and you an entire country, depends on
me to get your astronauts to space.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
It's just the clashing of two massive egos. I mean,
this is yes, billionaire bickering billionaires. We were looking at
all the lower thirds, all the the agraphics that news
stations use, and they were just having some fun.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
With this, this last nugget, just to bring it home
the ridiculousness of this. I was wondering, they're tweeting and
whatnot and putting out messages. Are they tagging each other? No,
they're not, and they can't. They're both posting on different
platforms that they both own.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Oh my god, this is a.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Fight between billionaires and they're tweeting at each other on
x which Elon owns, and truth Social that Trump owns.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
That. This is the most ridiculous fight I've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
I've never this is fine in my life, ever seen
anything like that. I mean, we've seen family fights. I'm
dealing with one right now, a little sister feuds.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Kind of as ugly, to be honest, it is.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Actually I feel like this is contagious. We need to
stop this now, all right, Moving on next up on
our run. Even if Musk takes a win publicly in
his fight with Trump, he definitely took a huge loss
yesterday financially. Musk lost and estimated thirty four billion dollars
in per personal wealth yesterday because his Tesla stock dropped
(08:03):
by fourteen percent.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
So he lost thirty four billion, but the company itself
lost about one hundred and fifty two billion dollars in value.
The company had taken a hit since Trump got into office,
but it actually shot back up last month afterward that
Musk was leaving his government job and would be dedicating
more time to being the CEO of Tesla. Well, most
of those gains were wiped out yesterday, just in one
(08:25):
public spect.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
When you start slinging mud, everybody gets dirty, right, I mean,
that's what's happening, all right. Next up on our run,
a massive military parade will take place next weekend in
DC to celebrate the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of
the US Army. It all happens on June fourteenth, which
also happens to be President Trump's seventy ninth birthday.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Yes, but whatever, it's going to look like, folks, it's
not a birthday celebration. This is a celebration of the Army.
It's gonna look, however, like some stuff were not used
to seeing in the United States, probably because this parade
is going to shut down cities, streets, restrict air travel
in and out of Reagan National Airport because they're going
to be fifty Army helicopters flying over the huge military
(09:08):
parade is going to showcase serve to five hundred troops,
twenty eight tanks, twenty eight Bradley vehicles. Don't they have
fireworks and they have one of the flyovers.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Yeah, the flyovers are with vintage warplanes. There are going
to be cannons, there's musical acts and performances. But here's
my favorite part, and yes, there is a fireworks display.
The Army's Golden Knights are planning to parachute onto the
ellipse right in front of the White House and present
an American flag to the waiting birthday boy aka President Trump.
(09:38):
They did describe that as a birthday gift that they
are going to be presenting. So instead of a birthday
cake with candles, he gets an American flag delivered to
him by the Golden Knights parachuting in It kind of
sounds like Mission impossible or something.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Yeah, they're going to have what two hundred thousand people,
so this is going to be a massive event of
some way. You can sign up online and get tickets,
I do believe.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Yeah, there's limited tickets.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Okay, so the price tag for all of this, I'm
not sure who's going to be paying. I assume just
taxpayers thirty to forty five million dollars for this birthday celebration.
Whose birthday of the Armies or Trump's youtubs or both.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
I saw it. I thought I saw them actually kind
of explaining it the White House as an unofficial birthday party,
but mostly mostly celebrating the Army's two hundred and fiftieth birthday.
Of course, all right, next up on our run, Harvard
has won this round. A judge has block President Trump
from keeping visas from students coming to the US to
study at Harvard. The judge issued a temporary restraining order,
(10:35):
saying there could be immediate and irreparable injury if the
ban takes.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Place, So there's a hearing schedule for June sixteenth. Judge
said the ban should be blocked at least until that
hearing takes place. On Wednesday, Trump announced his administration is
going to deny visas to any student trying any student
trying to come to the US, if that student was
trying to come to attend Harvard. Remember the President previously
trying to stop Harvard from enrolling international students by revoking
(11:00):
its certification in the student Visa and visa the student
visitor and exchange program.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
That effort was also blocked by the same judge, by
the way, so the administration was trying to find a
work around, but this latest effort has met the same
fate by the same judge. The Trump versus Harvard feud
has been going on for months now. It all began
with the President accusing the school of not doing enough
to fight anti Semitism. Kind of feels like the Musk
(11:29):
fight as well. Everything just keeps escalating and escalating and escalating.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Trump's got a.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Lot of public fights he does going on right now.
That's up on the run here and welcome sign here.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
No, Trump's not in a fight on this one.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
The sign that things could be calming in the trade
war between the world's two largest economies, the US and China.
President Trump and China's President She had a ninety minute
phone call yesterday that Trump described as a very good call.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
So good in fact, that Trump said the two men
invited one another and their first ladies to their respective countries.
And so he said, he and Milania accepted the invitation,
and we'll be going to China at some point.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Welcome news to hear there.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Also next here on our run Day seventeen of testimony
in the Didy trial and Didty almost got kicked out
of his own trial? Stay with us on this one.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Here, folks.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
There's a lot of headline making and consequential moments in
the courtroom yesterday, which featured testimony from another highly anticipated witness.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
First to what led to the judge threatening to remove
Diddy from the courtroom. It all happened during the testimony
of Brianna Bongalin. That's the woman who claims did he
dangled her over a seventeenth floor balcony will At two
separate points, Diddy was looking directly at the jury, perhaps
even one juror in particular, and he was nodding his
head aggressively.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
So the judge caught it both times and issued this
stern warning and I quote from the reporters in the
room quote, I could not have been clearer. There was
a line of questioning where your client was nodding vigorously
and looking at the jury. And there was a subsequent
moment we had a sidebar and I looked and I
saw your client looking at the jury and nodding aggressively.
(13:07):
This is absolutely unacceptable. Yes, this is a big, big no, no,
we all know this. You can't have any interaction with
the jury of anybody in a court room. But the
judge said, if he saw Diddy do it even one
more time, he'd remove him from the courtroom.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
Oof to the actual testimony now, and another big moment
was when defense attorneys produced a hotel receipt that showed
Ditty was actually in New York at the time that
Bonglan said she was being dangled over the balcony in
La She said, you know what, I might be off
on the exact date. Later in the day, the jury
then heard from Jane. She is testifying under that pseudonym
(13:40):
to protect her identity, and she says she started dating
Combs in twenty twenty and felt obligated to participate in
the so called freakoffs because Ditty paid all of her
bills and her rent and he gave her cash.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
We'll just summarize a lot of her testimony. That was
a lot there, but she says she spent ninety percent
rooms of their relationship having sex with other men. In
these sessions, she talked about the control Combs had over her.
Her hair had to be a certain way, her nails
had to be a certain color. She says she got
to a point where she couldn't work or travel just
in case did he needed her to fly somewhere for
(14:14):
a freak ofugh. The single mom even says she kept
child care lined up just in case.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
Now she is expected to be.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Back on the stand today and to be on the
stand for the next several days.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
It sounds very much like what Cassie vent tour Fine
had been testifying to. It's eerily similar, all right. Next
up on the run he escaped in Arkansas prison, and
now the Devil of the Ozarks has possibly left Arkansas altogether.
Investigators say they believe Grand Harden has evaded capture and
was able to flee the state.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Harden is a convicted rapist and murderer who was the
subject of that HBO Max documentary Devil in the Ozarks.
He was serving a decade's long prison sentence. He's a
former police chief. He escaped from this Arkansas prison on
May twenty fifth by wearing a law enforcement looking and
just walked right out the prison.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Gate and a court. Finally. Authority say they believe he
has fled, but also that he has extensive knowledge of
the Ozark Mountain region and could also possibly be hiding
in caves or in rugged terrain that he is very
familiar with. They also released a rendering of him with
facial hair. They think he may have changed his look.
But this is a part of the country that you're
familiar with. You border many states.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
I guess the four states there.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
You got Oklahoma, you got Missouri, you got what am
I missing? The Kansas and Arkansas. That's crazy in that area,
in that corner, and that's a rugged terrain. I went
to school up there and I did not mess around
in that terrain at all.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
It was scary to me. All Right, is they here, folks?
Speaker 2 (15:37):
When we come back, we're going to continue our run
with Tom Cruise getting a new title.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
He is a Guinness.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
World record holder. Also coming up, my apologies to the
Indiana Pacers. I feel so stupid, stupid, stupid. All right, folks,
let's continue on this Friday morning run with Tom Cruise.
(16:04):
He's made it into the Guinness Book of World Records.
He officially holds the tile four the most burning parachute
jumps by an individual. I didn't know it was a thing, U,
but he is now that word record holder. He made
sixteen jumps for a stunt in his latest Mission Impossible movie.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Yeah, I love the quote from the editor in chief
of Guinness World Records. He said, this, Tom doesn't just
play action heroes. He is an action hero. And you
know what, it's so true if I mean, we all
know he's known for performing his own stunts and movies,
but in this latest movie, Paramount Pictures actually posted a
video on YouTube of Cruise just before he makes those
(16:43):
attempts of that burning parachute jump with stunt corners, and
here's what Cruz says to the stunt coordinators just before
he does this. I'm going to be deploying. If this
is twisted while it's burning, I'm going to be spinning
and burnt. I'm gonna have to kick out of the
twist and then ignite it within ten second.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
That's what we've seen.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Yeah, he kind of said it sixteen times. He did
that dangerous thing he just described there sixteen times. The
video shows Cruise making the jump, showing them all edit
it together to show each one in rapid succession, with
the Mission Impossible theme behind it. I didn't watch it.
I was doing something else as we were working this morning,
but you were over there literally filling your arm like
you were having chills, like, oh my god, it's got
(17:23):
it is.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
It's worth a look if you can check it out
on YouTube because it is so amazing. I think we
forget you know, you know, he's an actor, and yeah,
he's done it. He does his own stunts, okay, but
when you actually see what he did and how many
times he did it, and it truly is deathifying the
previous one.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
You remember the last movie he went off the cliff in.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
That Norway Yeah, motorcycle, Yes, he did that a dozen times.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
That's the YouTube video before it.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Yeah, you can see that.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
I watched that too, honestly, because both I just you
forget how dangerous. But he even says safety is the
number one. You know, we're not going to take any
extra risks, but might got any extra risks that looked
risky in and of it.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
He's a movie star. That guy is wonderful.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
All right, final leg here, and I broke my own
rule last night, went to sleep before the.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
End of a game.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
See, there was no reason to stay up and watch
Game one of the NBA Finals because the Oklahoma City
Thunder were up by fifteen points.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
In the fourth quarter. Game is over.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
I've been up since two thirty in the morning. This
was two o'clock at night. It's fine, the game is fine.
It's in the bag. Go to sleep.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
I did.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
And then the Indiana Pacers came roaring back and their
star Tyre's Halliburton hit a shot with point three seconds
to play to win it final score one eleven to one.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
Ten ropes. I missed that, man.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
This is the fifth time this postseason that the Pacers
have overcome a deficit of fifteen points or more to win.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
That's my bad. So they've done this, that's my bad.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
I know you knew the Knicks were doing that, so
that's why we had to stay up as well. But
that game winner with point three seconds to play is
the latest game winning shot in an NBA Finals game
since nineteen ninety seven, when Jordan hit a game winner
against the Utah Jazz. As in, Michael Jordan, you know
you have always said this to me, and this is
why you stay up. But at a certain point, Babe,
it was Thursday night. You get up at two thirty
(19:04):
every morning. I get up at three and yeah, ten
o'clock at night after a long week, that I couldn't
stay up.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
What I think.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
I fell asleep at nine. I was like, I'm out
of here. I can't do this. I'm impressed that you
stayed up till ten, to be honest.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
And you know what, I should have stayed up until
eleven because I missed history. He did something that hasn't
been done in the finals since Jordan did it in
ninety seven, and I fell asleep.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
You know what, though, did you see it in replay?
Did you see it the next morning?
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Spoken like a woman who doesn't watch sports. You don't
watch you have to watch it live. Oh well, it
is a day for people to get into public spats.
But before you go watch your day, folks, something we
like for you to consider.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
It is our Friday quote of the day.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Yes, and it is from our Gabby Burnstein. I say
our Gabby Bernstein because we get to sit down with her.
We're going to be putting our conversations out with her
this week and please look for them in your feed
because what she has to say is truly life changing.
But is our quote of the day, courtesy of Gabby Bernstein.
And this is an affirmation that she tells herself that
(20:06):
she recommends to all of us today, I no longer
need to change the world around me. I just need
to change the way I see it. Ain't that the truth.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
I'm gonna take that with me today. We've got a
bunch of stuff going on today I'm gonna change. I'm
not gonna change any of it. Look at you taking breaths.
You're ready to go deal with your daughters.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Yeah, we have to have a come to Jesus moment.
When you've got two kids coming back from college, you
haven't lived together in a while, suddenly in rooms right
next to each other. Sometimes things get a little rocky.
And now I'm gonna have to be a leader. So yes,
I'm gonna take this to heart. And truly I can't
change anything or anyone. I can only change the way
I perceive it or react to it. So once again,
for everybody, I hope this helps you. It's certainly gonna
(20:52):
help me today. Today, I no longer need to change
the world around me. I just need to change the
way I see it. And with that, thank you Gabby,
and thank you all for listening to us on this
Friday morning run. I'm Amy Robots.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
And I'm TJ. Holmes. We will will be running with
you all real soon
