Unpacking Trump Assassination Attempt | Vance is VP

Episode Transcript

(00:00):
I'm not seeing it on TV,but I have seen a couple of prompts
that within the last forty five minutes, Doug Bergham and Senator Marco Rubio we're
both informed they were not going tobe the vice president candidate for Donald Trump.
You think they just told them thatnow or do you think that news
is just coming down now? Thatcase is my producer. What do you
think do they tell these guys weeksago that he was probably thinking a different

(00:21):
way or do you think they literallyjust made up their mind now? I
think they just told him now.Okay, yeah, fair enough. The
news came out, which means basicallyof the finalists that we were told that
leaves Republican Ohio Senator jd Vance andin the last couple of minutes, according
to Fox News' website and a coupleof different sources on social media, he

(00:42):
indeed is going to be the vicepresident nominee alongside Donald Trump. They're doing
roll call right now. Have youever watched one of these? I don't
believe I have. Okay, sohow this works and we'll get to obviously
the stuff that happened over the weekend, But this is literally happening as we
speak at the Republican National Convention inMilwaukee. They have people who are there
for each state or each area thatwould have held a primary or a caucus

(01:07):
and roll call they I don't knowif I don't know if they start with
this all the time. I thinkthey just it happens at some point where
every state. And it looks likeTommy Tuberville of the Alabama is the delegate
who is giving the Alabama part ofthis. But it's all the delegates of
all the different states or you knowwhat I mean, all the different places

(01:30):
that do do a thing. Caucusare a primary, and all of the
ones that were won by this thiscandidate, right. And in this case,
Nikki Haley, who had delegates,she released all of her delegates to
go ahead and support Donald Trump becauseI mean, it really doesn't matter whoever
gets the most right he needs.And fifteen they're calling state by state,

(01:55):
go ahead and turn this up realquick. Oh never mind, never mind,
they changed it. They changed itDonald Trump's Truth Social After lengthy deliberation
and thought and considering the tremendous talentsof many others, I've decided that the
person best suited to assume the positionof Vice President of the United States is
Senator JD. Vance at the GreatState of Ohio. That literally just dropped
on truth social All right, sothere that is. But anyway, we'll

(02:15):
listen back in and if they're doingthis live, well we'll check on that
so you can hear what it soundslike, because basically what this is would
be then the uh you have differentpeople who are in charge of their electors
and one specific representative that says,okay, now they're doing Indiana, right,

(02:38):
go ahead, go ahead and seeif they're doing playing this live a
great pick. Nope, it isnot. No, never mind, we
will, we'll come back. Butthe reason they're not playing is it's not
that big of a deal. Whatthey do is they say, the great
State of Indiana wants to make surethat this country is great, a good
or something like that. The HoosierState is incredibly excited to give out fifteen

(03:00):
delegates or whatever the number is tothe next President of the United States,
Donald J. Trump. Everybody screams, it's yeah, And then they do
that about one hundred times for allthe states in the territories and municipalities and
whatever that have that have stuff likethat it makes sense. Yeah, you

(03:21):
can see why they wouldn't play itthough, because that would get quite monotonous.
Sure, you know. So anyway, that's what's going on, Donald
Trump, Jdvancy's priced. Mmmm.We've been hearing, we've been hearing the
name. But six months ago,I don't think this was even it.
I was gonna say, like evenfor me personally as much as a couple
of weeks ago. If you wouldhave said that, I would have been

(03:42):
surprised. But because I feel likeI've been hearing this more recently and then
I kind of did some research onit, it makes sense to me for
a lot of reasons. So I'mless surprised in this moment. But a
couple of weeks ago, yeah,yeah, Yeah, there are a bunch
of names being thrown around. JD. Vance his real name James David Vance
born James Donald Bowman. What doesthat mean. He's the son of Donald

(04:06):
Bowman and bever Lee Vance. Ah. Okay. His mother and father divorced
when he was a toddler, andafterward was adopted by his mother's third husband,
which I'm guessing okay. JD.Later went by his name James Hamill,
which was his stepfather's surname, butthen he adopted his grandparents' surname Vance,

(04:26):
so didn't have great relationship with hisbirth father. It sounds like,
went to the Ohio State University,then went to Yale, you know,
got to get that doctor d lawyou know what I'm saying. Sure,
and then was in the military,served in the Marine Corps. You know
how old JD is. I wouldguess in his forties. He's about to

(04:46):
turn forty. He turns forty inAugust second, So he's young. I
mean, that's young. You know, he's he's like twenty years younger than
Kamala Harris. Think about it thatway. You know, when he got
into Congress for the first time,just a couple of years ago, January
third, twenty twenty three was whenhe was sworn in, so a newcomer
that certainly was inspired by the DonaldTrump movement. He came to prominence with

(05:12):
his memoir Hill Billy ELEGI. Ithink that's how you say that. I
believe it's a soft g LG.Yeah, Oh nice, He'll Billy Elegy,
a memoir of a family and cultureand crisis, A best selling book
about Appalachian values of his Kentucky family, even though he was born in Ohio,
and the social and socioeconomic problems ofhis hometown of Middletown, Ohio.

(05:32):
There you go, jd Vance.Matt, you're the producer of this show.
Do we talk more about jd Vancebeing the nominee for the as the
vice presidential pick or because it goesagainst everything we thought in identity politics except
the age that's like the one boxthat he checks. We were expecting maybe

(05:54):
a woman, maybe a younger woman, potentially someone of color. A lot
of people are saying identity politics couldbridge a gap to undecided voters. Did
not go there. Did not gothere with jd Vance, But then again
wouldn't have really gone there with DougBurgham either. Doug Burgham also an older
man who happens to be absolutely rich, So I think you probably lose some

(06:15):
of the barriers there. Marco Rubiohas some Latino background but also has been
in politics for a bit. He'slike fifty four with Rubio. You also
had the situation where they're both fromFlorida, so one of them would have
presumably Rubio would have to move.You're right, and you're right. How
do you serve a state direct andmove out of it. Correct. What

(06:35):
if the yeah, what if theyhe lost the election? Right? Good?
Good point, good point. Well, he was officially told that anyway
J. D Vance is to pick. You think it's appropriate to talk more
about Jady Vance now? Or dowe need to talk about what happened this
weekend. It's a weird thing becauseyou come ready for all this weekend talk
and then literally as we start theshow. Jd Vance becomes the vice president

(06:55):
nominy. You'll have to find somesort of balance. But the jd Vance
pick is not going anywhere until November, and we probably should talk about what
happened this weekend then, huh kindof yeah, kind of seems that way.
Yeah, all right, Well,I'll tell you about how I feel
and then I'll get your thoughts.We'll open the phone lines after that,
But hold tight. I know youprobably want to call in. I'm going
to give you ample time to dothat throughout the show. Don't worry.

(07:16):
I'm just not opening it for thatyet. Stick around. Got plenty to
talk about. Emory Songer with youNews Radio eleven ten kfab. Emery's songer
on news radio eleven ten kfab jdVance was announced as the vice presidential pick
for Donald Trump. So I meanit's news, it's important news in all

(07:41):
that jazz. And sure our friendTulsa Gabbard, who I always am very
curious as to how she feels aboutthings, she says, it appears that
President Trump may have chosen Jadvance forhis VP. If so, that's a
good choice. People like Tulsa Gabbard, I feel like, I feel like
Debt's a pretty important person to have. This is a person that ran for

(08:03):
the Democratic nomination just four years ago, and she's not the pick here,
But I was kind of thinking maybeif she like I know that the I
know that the there's an issue therebetween the two like Toulsi and her politics
and the politics of most Republicans.But I feel like I always kind of
had this feeling like Tulsi was alittle bit more of a conservative in a

(08:24):
lot of ways that we gave hercredit for. I think her being a
part of this and kind of turningthe page into a more conservative mindset.
And of course we know her tobe somebody not who just didn't serve Hawaii
as a representative, but served ourcountry as at least stephonic As getting the

(08:45):
honors of giving the New York numbersfor Donald Trump and the delegates during the
roll call. She was also kindof somebody I thought was an outside of
the box idea of who might beable to be a vice president if he
wanted to go in kind of identitypolitics. But with JD. Vance pretty
interesting. But there's definitely a movementof some younger people that are involved in,

(09:07):
you know, American conservative politics.A lot of people are involved in
politics now that probably never would havebeen. I have to tell you this
Saturday was a bit. It wasa bad day. I was sitting on
a couch. That is how Ifound out about what happened to former President
Trump. I sit on a couch, and I'll be honest with you.
I try really hard not to watchtoo much of the news. I don't

(09:28):
I'm plugged in to a point whereI'd like seeing stuff on social media.
But I was, like, Saturdaywas a hot day outside. It was
a lazy day, and my wifeand I were laying around. I can't
even remember what we were doing.I think we were watching something. Something
was on TV. I was watchingit, and then one of my buddies
texted me and said, you're gonnahave an interesting show on Monday to that,

(09:50):
you know, my buddy and Italk about all sorts of stuff.
I was like, I don't reallyknow exactly what you're talking about, and
he basically said, uh, somebodytry to shoot President Trump. And so
immediately, you know, you hopon social media and you're just kind of
like, Okay, how real isthat? Did that actually happen? Is
their video of it? This wasthe worst possible time to jump into this

(10:11):
thing because you knew nothing else.All you see is the photo and some
video of him with some blood acrosshis cheek. You don't like, he's
alive, and you know he's doingthe fist pump thing. But you also
know that something crazy just happened.What exactly happened? So my first thought
is I don't even know if Iwant to do what I do for a

(10:35):
living anymore. I thought, likeone hundred thoughts come into your brain in
a matter of seconds, honestly,And the first thought was, did am
I a contributor to the rhetoric ofthe country that got to this point?
And is this something I'm comfortable talkingabout in the future? If this is
going to be the result if we'reto a point where like I'm okay getting

(10:56):
angry and passionate about things. Youknow me, sometimes I get very passionate.
I kind of lose control. Sometimesa lot of people give me guff
for, you know, raising myvoice things like that. I find a
lot of that to be fun andentertaining. At the same time, I
don't want that to be real life. Am I contributing to a society where
we are just trying to make ourselvesas angry as possible, to where we

(11:18):
do the craziest things possible because wedon't like somebody, or we don't like
their opinion, or we don't approveof what they're talking about. And I
recognize I could be actually, youknow, I could be an outlet and
a voice for potentially a healthy debate, which I hope for the last year

(11:39):
i've been here, that's what we'vebeen promoting is as much fairness and as
much healthy debate and discourse as possible. I've tried really hard to anything that's
super radical and unfounded from either side. I tried really hard to have discussions
that make sense but also are somewhatrespectful at the very least even if we

(12:00):
aren't going to agree on something,and I just I never think to a
point where somebody's life will be indanger because of their opinion. Then the
thought of okay, who did this, They're going to need to find a
shooter here, because if they can'tfind a shooter this, I mean,
it's already a complete breakdown by thesecurity and the Secret Service and the police.
They have to be able to locatea shooter very quickly here otherwise the

(12:22):
theories online are going to go crazy. They did find a shooter, they
shot the shooter dead immediately. Theytried to get the identity out I think
as soon as it was positively identified. But the theories are already there,
and the theories continue to be there. In fact, most of the theories
I'm seeing are coming from people whoaccuse everybody on the other side of the
aisle of being conspiracy theorists. Youknow, we literally have video evidence of

(12:46):
a president, a former president who'srunning for president now having a bullet whiz
past his ear. You can seeit in a photograph. There is a
bullet that's whizzing past his ear,and you see him bleeding. You see
that he has a wound in hisear. We also know that three black
standers were hit. One of themis passed away, two others were critically
injured. They were just there ata political rally. We have to uncover

(13:07):
a motive for this. But beforewe could even understand who did it and
why, you have people on theleft saying this is fake. This is
done to make him look like amartyr, like there's something that's not adding
up. This whole thing is fake. We've been hearing that a lot lately
from them, and again, I'mtrying to be respectful, but it's real
rich hearing that stuff come from thatside of the aisle right now. And

(13:28):
again, these aren't politicians saying this. These are your crazy heads on social
media love riling people up and makingyou feel bad because you support certain politicians,
making you feel bad that you havecertain principles in your life. You're
a bad person because of that.Apparently according to them, they're like,
oh, yeah, no, heset himself up, this was a setup.
At the same time, I'm thinking, how did somebody with a loaded

(13:48):
shotgun a rifle crawl up onto aroof within four hundred feet of the presidents
of the United or a potential presidentof the United States, a guy who
was the president of the United States, have a clear line of site and
be able to fire off a handfulof shots before he's taken out. How
does that happen? I have beentraveling listen to this. I lived in
the De Moin area for a fewyears, and right where I lived was

(14:11):
next to one of the highways,Interstate two thirty five. If you're familiar
two thirty five and INTERTA eighty,you know, kind of combined there.
They didn't let anybody even travel acrossthe overpass of that highway when they expected
the presidential motor cad which was PresidentTrump at the time, coming through the
De Moin area on this highway.He was going to be traveling to a

(14:33):
spot from that highway, and theywhile that presidential motorcade was on the road,
you couldn't even be on one ofthese overpasses in a vehicle. I
had to go all the way aroundto get to my house. Okay,
they wouldn't even let you cross thehighway while the motorcade was coming. Okay,
think about that. Yet, somehow, some way, whatever security,

(14:54):
secret service, local police, theydid not clear and secure and monitor a
building that was within direct side ofthe stage and within less than five hundred
feet of this incredibly important person inAmerican politics. So I start asking questions
as soon as I understand, likehow could this even happen? And then
it just got I have more questionsnow than I did two days ago when

(15:16):
I found this stuff out. I'msure you have questions too. I'll go
ahead and all open the phone linesif you want to call. I got
more thoughts on this, how itmakes me feel, where I think we're
headed, what I'm thinking about someof the responses from people who are very
opposed to Donald Trump as a whole, and what they were saying about this,
and how I think it could change, maybe the tone of the way

(15:39):
that we talk here. And alsowhat the shooter's background, whatever we know
about him, what his role andwhat his personality is, and how that
could relate to us healing over thisas a country. You can call in
at four h two, five five, eight, eleven ten. We'll take
calls. We'll give you more ofmy thoughts. Next on news radio eleven
ten. Kfab Emery sung on newsradio so eleven K Baby back to where

(16:04):
I was in talking about my ownpersonal thoughts on what happened on Saturday.
I told you about, you know, me coming to a kind of this
weird thought at a crossroads of youknow, maybe I could be helpful in
being kind of an outlet for people. I feel like we've been that for
a year since I've gotten here ofdiscussion on both sides, We've had people

(16:25):
on the left fiet of people onthe right. I disagree with most of
the people on the left. Ifind a lot of the information that I'm
being told from them to be eitherinaccurate or falsely misleading intentionally. That's that's
not something that the right is freeof doing either. The right has done
that a lot, especially the lastfew years. There's no doubt that people

(16:47):
on the left field the exact sameway I do, just from the people
on the opposite side of the aisle. It's pretty interested in if they could
find a motive for the shooter,and if the shooter was aligned with anything
specifically. I'm probably gonna catch alot of heat for this, but they
announced Thomas Matthew Crooks. He gotthe three named treatment, as he probably
should. You want to make sureyou're positively identifying a person many people throwing

(17:11):
their conspiracy theories about this person online. I'm trying to read as much about
him that we know about, andthere isn't a lot. He's twenty years
old, he hadn't voted in anythingother than the general election in twenty twenty
two, which did not include apresidential nomination. Obviously his you know,
they didn't tell us who he votedfor. But what we do know is
he was registered as a Republican.Yet the one contribution he made to a

(17:34):
political party was to a liberal cause, a few like right when he turned
eighteen. There's a lot of confusionthere. His dad is apparently a libertarian
politically, his mom is apparently aDemocrat. These are people that I'm sure
are going to be haunted the restof their lives that their son met his
demise this way, not just becausethey lost their son, which is obviously

(17:56):
an incredibly difficult thing I'm sure forthem to do, but also to know
that their son and their entire familyare going to be known within the realm
of this incident here, and itsucks. It's a twenty year old person
who I think fits the profile moreso of a school shooter type or a

(18:18):
mass shooter type that we have cometo unfortunately understand there is it kind of
a type of person who is perpetratinga majority I would say seventy or percent
more in the last probably ten years, probably seventy to eighty percent of them
at least we could probably like theirpersonality gives us a lot of red flags
as to they were reclusive, theywere bullied, like, didn't have a

(18:41):
lot of friends, not many peoplehung out with them, didn't really know
much about them. For instance,this guy his his whole thing, he's
he was not on social media,like he had a discord. Are you
familiar with Matt? Do you knowwhat discord is? I've heard about it.
It's I believe it's more common inthe video gaming car. Yeah,

(19:02):
so like gaming you can kind oftalk to people playing games, or you
can play games in that forum basicallyand like talk to people that way.
But he had apparently not played anythingfor a while, and there's absolutely no
political tracings of any of his beliefswithin that account. We don't really even
have like social media accounts for him, at least as I was looking for
them. There are people trying tosay that he was misidentified because they think

(19:27):
that he had gauges in even thoughthat doesn't seem to be the case.
I don't think the police would beintentionally misidentifying a person like this, especially
when his parents are basically saying,yeah, that's him. This is the
Internet now. Everybody thinks that they'rean expert. Everybody wants to be an
expert. Everybody goes out of theirway to try to figure out something they
think nobody else is seeing. Iwish a lot of this energy was funneled

(19:48):
toward maybe cold cases or ways tohelp people incentive, ways to pull people
down. But that's just kind ofwhere we are as a society, and
this is kind of how we getthere. I'm not saying this guy was
not politically motivated. I'm saying thisfeels to me like this specific shooter wasn't
as politically motivated as he was motivatedthat he had nobody in this world and

(20:11):
wanted to do one thing that hewould be remembered for, even if it
was a heinous and evil act.And I don't know how a twenty year
old thinks in that way, becausewhen I was twenty, I had a
lot of people around me. Howcan we take steps to help people that
are thinking this way. Obviously,this is not the same thing as a
school shooting. A school shooting isincredibly tragic in a completely different way.

(20:33):
This is also an incredible breach ofnational security. If a potential world leader
in our country is in this stateright, whether it's Pennsylvania or Nebraska or
Iowa or wherever, and they's somewherethat close within five hundred yards they think,
about four hundred yards away, witha clear line of sight to the
stage, and he was able towalk up to that building, climb up

(20:56):
that building. There were bystanders aroundthat said they saw him with a rifle
on his back, trying to alertpeople, pointing out that there's a guy
there. And it's not until afterhe is able to get some shots off
does he finally get taken out.How does this happen? How does this
happen? No matter what his stateof mind would have been, how does
this happen? Mark's on our phoneline of four h two five, five,

(21:18):
eight eleven ten, Mark, Iappreciate you calling in today. What's
on your mind? Hey? Howyou do so? So? It's kind
of like football, you know,if you listen to a defensive football coach.
They always say the defense makes anerror. They always make an error.
And you know the problem is,you know, and I fly airplanes
for the front of it, andwe have kind of a rule that's kind
of like three strikes in your deadSo basically, you know, we had

(21:42):
strike one. The guy's climbing upthe side of the building and nobody does
anything. Supposedly, he pointed agun at a police officer, and why
the hell he didn't shoot him?I have no idea, but there's no
excuse for that. Look, ifsomebody points a gun at me, you
have every right to shoot. Well, well, mark house, he even
gets the building, you know whatI mean, Like he's carrying a rifle.

(22:03):
How is he even getting to thebuilding. There's not a perimeter that
anybody sees him before he's getting ontothe building. There's plenty of bystanders that
did Unfortunately none of them streamed outgun. They're all trying to talk to
an officer. And if they wouldhave screamed loud enough gun, then it
would have been a you know,that would have probably helped, but not

(22:25):
that they should know that, butif they would have streamed gun, that
definitely would have been a different situationrather than hey, look at that guy,
and then the other thing is Andeven Olmaha has this same problem.
We don't have interoperable interoperable communication.A great example which you can look up
is that police officer that got shotdown there, which is before you got

(22:48):
here, got shot down at theself serve or self storage place. He
is that the ambulance is sitting outsidewaiting for him. But yet the police
have radio the Omaha dispatcher, theOmaha police dispatcher has to give it tell
the Omaha Fire dispatcher go in andget the officer. And if you look
at the timeline on that recording,it was fifteen minutes. The officer's laying

(23:12):
there and they've said it's all clearfor the ambulance to come in, but
they don't come in because they don'tget the communication. And I'm sure at
an event like this that police officerdoesn't communicate. But if that, I'm
not going to swear if that person, if that officer would have even fired
his gun in the air, allhe had to do is shoot his gun

(23:33):
in the air, and believe me, everybody would have stopped what they're doing
and they would have got Trump offthe stage, that kid wouldn't have had
a target. Then they never movedTrump off the x X marker, which
is where that shooter is planning toshoot. So they don't move Trump off
the X, and he keeps shootingand they should have had Their first job
is to get him off the targetzone. And they don't do that.

(23:56):
And granted, I'm sure that podiumbelow that was that table, probably it
was metal lined, but they're stillsupposed to get him off the target,
right, and they don't do that. And then there's actually skiaker at service
hiding from the bullets. Right.But I'll tell you what, that poor
family that lost their father and dad, their father and husband, they you

(24:19):
can be guaranteed they're going to findout what department that police officer works for.
That those people should get sued.That was ridiculous. Market's going to
happen. I mean, the peoplewho are in charge of this, every
level of them, are going tohave to answer for this in some way,
even litigation or otherwise, and I'mhopefully just never even has the chance

(24:41):
to happen. Again. I appreciatethe analysis. Mark, thanks for listening.
All right, we'll continue the conversation. Next, you want to call
in, you can four h two, five to five, eight to eleven
ten, News Radio eleven ten KFAB. Those are a couple of the big
stories, and obviously we're spending asmuch time as we can talking about what
happened over the weekend and the failedassassination attempt of Donald Trump by a twenty
year old in Pennsylvania. Mike's onour phone line of four two, five,

(25:03):
five eight eleven ten. Mike,what are your thoughts on this?
Em Very good afternoon. Good totalk to you real quick. On JD
that's a life insurance policy for Trumpbecause it was probably going to be Tim
Scott or maybe even Rubio, whichwould have been a disaster. But JD.
Vance's anti globalist, anti communist,anti most importantly, he's anti war.

(25:27):
So that's a life insurance policy forTrump that if they were to take
him out, if he wins thiselection and they're not going to have a
puppet behind him like Tim Scott orNikki Haley or Niakon Nikki or any of
those would have been. And asfar as this assassination to Tim Demmery,
this was say okay, we're notgoing to play for ten, like this

(25:48):
was nineteen sixty three or nineteen eightyone anymore, where we only had three
news stations and a couple of majornewspapers dominated everything for what the American public
was allowed to get to their news. That kid wasn't rolling around Hey,
I'm just rolling around these grounds witha giant ladder and an ar on my
shoulder. No, that didn't happenbecause the ladder was strategically placed there and

(26:11):
the gun was already on top ofthe building. Because if you see the
footage when he was climbing up,you see it quick of him climbing up.
There was no gun on him,and then when he got to it,
you see him kind of scrambling becauseof the slant of the roof.
He didn't have a gun. Sohe wasn't cruising around the fairgrounds with an
AR on him. And I wentto the Trump rally in twenty twenty here

(26:33):
in Omaha, Imri, they hadI mean that was impenetrable. They had
guys with missiles out there in caseof plane work to come in. Okay,
so secret service And you said fourhundred yards, No, no,
it was one hundred and fifty yards. I mean climbing four hundred feet,
I'm in four hundred feet yea,yeah, four hundred feet yea, four
hundred and four hundred feet, yeah, four hundred yeah, four hundred and
fifty feet whatever, But yeah,one hundred and fifty yards. Randall Cunningham

(26:56):
back in his prime, could taketwo passes and hit that okay of a
football. They were in constant contact. You had the sniper scoped him for
forty two seconds, and they hadinformation on him for about three minutes.
Trump should have been immediately immediately.There's there's footage that come out today showing
Secret Service behind Trump well getting peopleout of the way, and they were

(27:17):
dunking duck in seconds before the shotswent off. All secret services, they're
all connected, all air pieces,they all have everything going in their ears.
They're all connected with each other.They should have immediate When you got
a guy's scope and a guy's climbinga ladder, and and this guy scoping
them knows there's a gun up there, and they didn't get the president.
That's an inside job. That kidwas not supposed to miss. He missed.

(27:40):
They took their shot. They missed. They had an opportunity. He
wasn't supposed to know, so Iguess I Mike, can I just ask
who do you think would be behindthat? Well? The FBI, absolutely,
I mean the FBI that didn't investigatethe Las Vegas shooting, Hunter's laptop,
the Marshall Marshall, of course,it's the FBI, d OJ The

(28:03):
FBI and d OJ is behind it. Well, well, Mike, obviously
we're gonna have to wait for there'sgonna be a huge investigation into what exactly
happened here that we're gonna learn investigatingmemory. Well, I'm hearing you,
Mike, I'm hearing you. There'sgonna be a lot of questions, Mike,
Mike, though, Mike, Mike, I'm just come on, man,
I'm Mike, Mike, Mike.I'm hearing you, man, And
I appreciate the information, and Iappreciate the passion of the conversation. Day

(28:26):
I'm just saying, I'm gonna listenfor as much information as I possibly can.
You take that mainstream media narrative memory, go with you, fro Becaus.
The FBI is going to investigate themselveslike they always do. All Right,
I gotta go, Mike. I'mrunning out of I'm running out of
time. I appreciate the call.I'm just I hesitate to say that,

(28:47):
but there's a lot of question marksabout this thing that Mike obviously brought up.
We got to talk more about itafter this on News Radio eleven ten.
KFA be the vice president pick tobe the running mate for Donald Trump,
thirty nine year old from middle Town, Ohio. He is going to
be an interesting factor, I thinkinto this right. Speaking of this,
before we get back into our Saturdaysituation, listener Chris is calling in from

(29:10):
the Republican National Convention. Chris,can you tell us what it's like up
there? Hello, Yeah, Chris, go ahead. Hi, my tenth
convention at the Republican Convention, andI just think it's kind of an exciting
time. I've never seen a conventionthat's been this exciting. It's kind of

(29:30):
electric, excitement about Donald Trump,excitement about the vice presidential candidate JD.
E. Vance. Just very andI don't know what it's caused by.
It may have been part of therealization that life is short and an assassination
attempt kind of changes things if thatwould have occurred and been successful, but
it wasn't, thank God. Yeah, and I think the delegates are just

(29:52):
very grateful that Trump has the abilityto be nominated here today. Yeah,
for sure, Chris, I appreciatethat. I got to ask, though,
where did do you just go forfun? You go specifically to do
something? Well, I'm always adelegate and the sure it didn't make it,
but I wanted to go just becauseI felt that this was going to
be kind of a monumental year.And so I came up and put the

(30:17):
convention, have crudentials set on thefloor, and it's been It's been exciting.
It's been unusual. I wasn't expectingit to quite be as exciting as
it was, but for conventions usuallythey're pretty dull and boring, but this
one was not. Well, soyeah, I think, yeah, definitely
for being on a Monday afternoon rightnow, looks like there's quite a bit
of cool stuff going on there.So I appreciate the call on the update,

(30:40):
Chris, have some fun over there, thank you. Yep, No,
appreciate the call. Uh, yeah, so that's going on. It's
a big deal obviously for two dayspast Donald Trump surviving an assassination attempt and
we're talking about that. Trying toI want to have positive conversations. Now,
I had a couple of emails comein about our last caller I think
is Mike who who basically said thiswas totally an inside job, one hundred

(31:04):
percent. And I think Mike's okayto feel that way. We don't have
enough information. Obviously, Mike's veryskeptical about the FBI our governmental agencies.
I don't while I'm totally okay talkingabout that, don't expect me to just
agree with that because I don't personallyfeel like that's the kind of conversation.

(31:26):
I don't feel the same way,Okay, I kind of let I don't
like to think about things beyond whatI know. I don't try to think
about things in a meta way.I think it's I don't know how possible
it is that there was a breachof security of that magnitude, which is
why I'm very skeptical about exactly whathappened at this rally in Pennsylvania. I

(31:52):
don't know how a person was ableto access an obvious spot that should have
been secured. I have no ideahow that would happen unless it was an
incredibly crazy mistake. But every singlepolitical ee than I've ever been to There's
never been even a thought of somethinglike that happening. Maybe they were lackadaisical,

(32:13):
or maybe there was something a littlebit more to the story. It
would be weird to me, though, that the recruit to be the one
to create that situation and then shootan active ar fifteen kill a man,
hit three other people, critically injuringtwo of them. One of the people
he hits and was aiming for isa former president who's a current presidential candidate.

(32:35):
They get a twenty year old reclusefrom suburban Pittsburgh. That part,
to me seems to be the partof it. I'm just not it's not
linking up to me. It feelslike that that is a strange choice.
If that was something that was aconcerted effort by multiple people. We'll go
ahead and get to Wes here.Wes appreciate you calling in. What's on

(32:57):
your mind? Yeah? I thinkingthe exact same thing as you were.
How can a twenty year old thatwas awkward just out of high school two
years ago get past the Secret Service, the state police, vocal law enforcement
with a rifle and a ladder.I just don't understand it. Yeah,
So, and again I don't wantto guess. Can you turn your radio

(33:19):
down there, Wes, get somefeedback. I don't know, man,
I just I feel like there's moreto this that we don't know, and
I'm just not sure what that is. Like, is there something that's pulling
you in a direction that you thinkmight be kind of the root cause of

(33:40):
this, or do you really thinkthat there's a chance that maybe this twenty
year old did just have an ideaof where he was in what he was
doing. Well, I think ifthey allowed him to get within one hundred
and thirty yards of the president,it was either an extreme failure on their
part or there was someone on theinside. Well yeah, but even then,

(34:01):
it'd have to be multiple people,right, because it's a very great
multiple people. Yeah. I mean, because the entire Secret Service would have,
if they really cared about their jobs, that you would have felt like
they would have secured that area.I appreciate the call, Wes. Yeah,
you too. Patty's on the phoneline of four h two, five,

(34:22):
five, eight to eleven ten.Patty, Welcome to the show.
What's on your mind? I mean, I'm a total Trump porter, but
it doesn't cross my mind as towhat if it was something on the inside
on his side. Well, hedefinitely looks better out of this, doesn't
he. I mean, but again, these were real live rounds like this
was. Oh yeah, I knowthat definitely a risk, but you know,

(34:44):
I don't know, just nowadays,never know what they willing to put
themselves that I know, I knowwhat you're saying, Patty. I just
I wonder there just there would haveto be way too many people on the
inside to know that, and hewould have had to expect that. And
I mean the the millimeter that hewas missed by. I mean honestly the
mill right, like I mean,if if and we're talking about not like

(35:07):
a governmental sniper who has accolades,is one of the true sharp shooters in
the world. No, this isa random twenty year old recluse from suburban
Pittsburgh that nobody knows much about exceptwhose parents are. You'd think his parents.
I mean, he's an adult,so maybe his parents don't know everything
he's doing in his life. ButI don't know how his parents are aren't

(35:30):
aware of some of the stuff thatmaybe he was thinking about. But it's
it's a it's a messed up situation. And we were quite literally a millimeter
one way or the other of thisbeing an even worse situation exactly, I
appreciate the situation in our world.Yeah. Well, and again this is
the other thing too, And Ithink thanks for the call, Patty.

(35:52):
This here's here's where I'm going withthe personality of the shooter and why that
matters here. I'm glad that thisis already forcing our active politicians to be
aware of their tone. Now.I'm glad that that's where that is.
I was happy to see people whoare avid Trump haters in Congress and in

(36:15):
the White House and who were tryingto get to the White House before.
You know, people who are inpolitics names who are very Democrat, go
out of their way to say thatthis needs to be condemned. This is
bad. We're glad that he's aliveand he's okay and he's doing well.
That's good. I'm glad that thetone is being adjusted. However, it

(36:36):
is weird that we don't have areal obvious political reason for this person to
try to do this, except forthe fact that this person was kind of
reclusive, He didn't have a lotof friends, not many people knew much
about him. He had an arfifteen, he was able to climb up
the side of a building. Hegrabbed a gun and climbed to a shooting

(36:59):
position, and then immediately after firingshots, killing one man, injuring three
others, including two critically. Oneof the people he injures is a former
president of the United States. He'sfrom somewhere nearby, and then immediately gets
his brains blown out as soon ashe shoots. Right. There isn't a
manifesto, There isn't a whole lotto know about him. It just kind

(37:21):
of feels like this is a schoolshootery situation. And I don't know if
we're ever gonna uncover a motive becausehe has no trail behind him. He
just nobody knew anything about him,and he was not active on social media.
We're gonna take a lot more calls. The calls are flowing in.
We'll get to your thoughts. Stickaround news radio eleven to ten KFAB.
They have to take some responsibility forthat rhetoric. They can't just blame Donald

(37:43):
Trump for that. Now. DonaldTrump and Donald Trump supporters definitely have thrown
some gasolina on the whole thing throughoutthe process. But it takes two to
tango. I think we're all alittle bit responsible for needing to bring the
tone down of the rhetoric. Butit has to start with them. It
has to start with the president.It has to start with his campaign has
to start with all that. Andthen we'll see how Donald Trump reacts to
it. Even though we do havereports that they did actually speak on Saturday

(38:07):
night, Donald Trump said it wasa fine and very nice conversation. That's
good to hear. We'll see ifthis campaign kind of shifts a little bit
in the ways they talk about eachother. Adam's on the phone at four
h two, five five, eighteleven ten. Hello, Adam, what's
on your mind? A statement anda question, and then I'm going to
hang up and listen to what youhave to say. Okay, I watched

(38:29):
the footage of the attempt, andI think, however you want to say
it, I think we got luckyit was the person that it was.
I honestly think there was very littletraining with the particular firearm that was used.

(38:54):
I think the first shot scared himand or recoil, whatever you want
to call it. And I thinkthat's the only reason that we're not talking
about planning a ex president's funeral here. And the question that I had is

(39:14):
the Perry, Iowa that school shooting. When I believe this is correct,
the mom or dad of that kidhad owned the gun or something. Weren't

(39:34):
they charged with that? I don'tthink they were. There was a person
in Michigan though, in a similarsituation their parents were charged. I don't
think we've gotten that far in Perryyet. Okay, and I could have
gotten that next up. Yeah,but that did happen. They actually were
convicted of that. So they wereconvicted of the negligence of their firearm.

(39:57):
Okay. So that's what I'm wondering, is because I I entered somewhere that
this was the shooters bother's weapon.Yeah, it's possible. Him being twenty
years old, I think changes thingsa little bit, you know what I
mean? I agree, Yeah,but I agree. Oh, I agree,
Yeah, but I I do.They're all old enough to make their
own decisions, right, No,for sure. But that's the thing,

(40:17):
Adam is whose gun was it?We still don't have that information either.
I appreciate the call though, thanksfor listening. Thank you. Uh,
let's get to Glenn real quick.Glenn, appreciate you calling in. What's
on your mind? Hey, Amry, I agree with your last caller.
That was one of the things Iwanted to talk to. Maybe this kid
was bullied so much too high schoolthat actually he went beyond a school shooting

(40:42):
and decided, you know what,I'm plan this thing out and do a
little bit differently and go out big. I'm wondering what his dad thinks about
the political stuff. I'm wondering whathe grew up with. Yeah, his
dad like Biden. Yes, Ilike Trump, Glenn, Glenn. We
know the political affiliations. At leastI don't know about their Trump feelings.

(41:04):
But his dad was a Libertarian andhis mom's a registered Democrat, so I
don't know how politically active they are. Again, this is a twenty year
old. I barely knew what wasgoing on when I was twenty in American
politics. I know it's a lotdifferent now, but that would be my
understanding is. I don't think theyhad anything to do with his political ideology.
He was a little active. Theysaid he voted in one election,
which was the general election in twentytwo which he was just old enough to

(41:27):
vote in, and that he donated. He was registered as a Republican,
but he had donated a small amountof money to a Democratic pack, So
we don't have a lot of obviousbreadcrumbs as to what his political leanings were,
just that he was somewhat interested init, and his parents both have
different perspectives, a Democrat and alibertarian. That's all we know. But
at this point, but I thinkyou're right. I really hope, I

(41:52):
really hope that we saved a wholebunch more children in a school shooting than
a no for sure England. LikeI said, I think he fits the
profile more of a school shooter typethan a presidential politically motivated assassin kind of
thing. But I appreciate the call, Glynn. This is good. I
appreciate you calling. Have a greatday, sir. Thank you. All

(42:14):
right, we'll get to Tony,Kevin Ted, everybody else calling in.
Be patient. I'll get to youmomentarily. Stick around. We're gonna get
all your thoughts right here on newsradio eleven in kfab. Em Marie Sunger
on news Radio eleven ten kfab Tony, what's on your mind? Emery?
I got someone in the inner circleof Donald Trump telling me that his walkout

(42:37):
song is going to be many menby fifty cents. Oh boy, I
mean, and I mean how balleris how ballor is that? And people
got to remember that mister Trump isNew York or Queens Jamaica, New York.
That's where he was born and raised. Yeah. No, you know

(42:58):
what I'm going to tell you isif he does that, and I mean,
you want to talk about a bossmoment, that's going to go viral
on every social media platform bingo.I mean, he knows what he's doing.
Hey, people got to relax.People got to relax. The man
survived and tempted as fascination. He'sgoing to be the president. So no
worries. We're good. Yeah,I mean, hopefully there's not another one.

(43:19):
That's the only thing I'd be worriedabout. Hey, Tony, appreciate
the call, man, Thanks forlistening. Take care, Kevin, Kevin,
welcome to the show. What areyou thinking about? Hey? Yeah?
Thanks? Hey, I just wantto remind everybody what Biden did say
a while back. She said,we're done talking about the debate. It's
time to put Trump in the bullseye. Should he be brought up in

(43:40):
charges for inciting an attempted assassination?Yeah, so I think so I thought
about this. They say that DonaldTrump used like a dog whistle to incite
the January sixth stuff. But basicallyhe said peacefully and you know all that
stuff he's trying. His text wasactually delete it off of Twitter at the

(44:02):
time you saw. Yeah. ButKevin, my point is that's because the
FBI had control of Twitter at thetime, right. Kevin, My point
though, is, if that's theargument that the left has on Donald Trump
insiding January sixth, the people onthe right, the Republicans, have every

(44:22):
right to say that is the kindof thing that is a dog whistle to
incite this type of violence against DonaldTrump, no matter what the context was.
We agree, no matter what thecontext of that conversation was, no
matter what. Because they're they're sayingthe Donald Trump he wants to be a
dictator. They're taking one clip ofone thing he said out of context and
playing it in Biden's campaign ads.They're saying Donald Trump says it's going to

(44:45):
be a blood bath when he wins, when all he was talking about was
a financial blood bath in the autoindustry if he doesn't win. That was
the kind of thing that I justhate that when they use those comments,
pull them out, they don't useany context around them. So I think
that the question has to be asked. You have to be more careful about
the way that you speak, AndI don't think that. I think they

(45:07):
have an absolute case there, Kevin, about you know, blaming the Biden
administration for their word choice for somethinglike this. But it's not the Biden
administration. It's actually Biden himself,and I think he needs to be held
accountable for what he has stated.Also, let's let's talk about beyond the

(45:27):
shooter himself, who owned that building, Who owned the building, How did
that happen? And is there somesort of coordination that happened in the background
as far as the shooter, theagencies of the government and this owner of
the building to make sure that thatroof was free and clear, as far
as you know, fighting on Trumphimself. Yeah. Also, my last

(45:52):
point is, let's remember conspiracy theoriesin the past. Let's remember how any
of those have come true lately.Right, Yeah, And I'll be honest
with you. I mean that peopleare going to dig into that too,
Kevin. They're gonna they're gonna beevery step of the way. People are
gonna be very careful about the wordsthey hear or the things they see,

(46:14):
and what the reaction to that is. In case that is kind of a
silent whistleblowing kind of conversation. Iappreciate the call, Kevin, Thanks so
much for listening. All right,thanks. Ted's on the phone. Linet
four two five five eight eleven ten. Ted, You're with Emery News Radio
eleven ten kfab Hi, Amory,It's Ted. I here's my major concern.
I'm I'm sitting at home this weekendand I get a text message from

(46:37):
a good friend of mine and hesays Trump's been shot and I don't believe
it. I'm like, oh,come on yeah, and he says,
no, it's real. And therewas another gentleman, another friend of ours,
on the same text, and theother gentleman on the text said,
too bad they missed yep. Andthis is a guy I've known for forty

(46:59):
years. And I was like,you got to be kidding me. And
and I'll say, I will saystraight up, I am not a Biden
supporter, and I really don't likeTrump personally, but I think his policies
are much better than what Biden's are. And I'm lots of concerns about Biden

(47:20):
in many different directions, and Iguess my concern is, you know,
people say, well, the FBIis going to investigate. I don't trust
the FBI. There was a dayI'm old enough, there was a day
when I actually trusted our institutions.But you know, I've gone through JFK
getting shot, I've gone through hisbrother getting shot. I've gone through Martin

(47:44):
Luther King being shot and really neverany closure on a few of those incidents,
and I don't expect there will beany closure on this incident. They
say already there's no information. Boy, I tell you that sounds like a
person set up to be used bythe CIA like you've never heard for before.

(48:08):
Yeah, and this I mean,well the TED I will tell you
this, although I'm not sure I'mwilling to step into kind of those conversations
and really believe them. We haveto ask those questions right now because without
the more information, without the motive, without a connection that this shooter had
to anyone else. How for somereason, I've been to political events where

(48:30):
you couldn't even come within two hundredfeet on the ground and have the ability
to not be checked by security insome way. The fact that this building
was completely unsecured, like just leftalone by Secret Service to where a guy
with a rifle could crawl up thereand have a direct line of sight to
the stage with a shotgun. Imean, it's an an incredible oversight,

(48:52):
or it's got to be something thatwas a little bit more orchestrated by some
people. I don't know who thosepeople are, but we need to ask
those question now so we get thoseanswers. Ted, I appreciate the call.
All right, Uh, we'll getto Ashton, Dale, Ray,
everybody else calling in stick around.We're going to get to your thoughts momentarily,
and if you want to call inyou can four oh two, five

(49:13):
five eight, eleven ten, NewsRadio eleven ten Kfab and Resung on News
Radio eleven ten Kfab. Ashton,Welcome to the show today. What are
you thinking about? Hey, Emery, how's it going. I was just
I was listening to you kind ofexplain, you know, describe this kind

(49:34):
of person, and it just kindof made me think, you know,
if I were them, whoever theyare, you know, we throw that
out there a lot like them orchestratingsomething or you know, whether it was
Luck. I don't think it wasLuck. That kind of person seems like
the perfect candidate. You know,he's nobody, doesn't have a social media

(49:55):
footprint, didn't have a lot goingon, could easily just bigger, you
know, and when you give someonelike that a bigger purpose and probably money,
you know, something bigger than themselves, that that seemed like the perfect
recruit to me. Yeah, Iguess I just would have to. Okay,
so all of the people that wouldhave had to be in on this,

(50:16):
I would That's what kind of makesme unsure about that, right,
including you know, Donald Trump.The fact that, okay, we were
shooting at a former president in acurrent presidential candidate number one. Number two,
we know we're probably going to killsomebody, if not him, somebody
else. Number three. This twentyyear old that we're recruiting to do this

(50:37):
has no formal training whatsoever, andwe're asking them to use an AR fifteen
and hit a shot from four hundredyards with no formal training. That is
a bit of a variable. Andthe fact that oh yeah, you're gonna
get your blurt brains blown out oneway or the other as soon as you
take your first shot. And nobodyelse is going to know about this coming
except for the Secret Service. Idon't know, Like to me, I

(51:00):
mean, have there not been crazierthings that have happened? I think it's
willing. I think it's I thinkit's okay to ask the question, Ashon.
I'm just I'm also skeptical of theskeptics, you know what I'm saying,
Like, I think, I thinkit's I'm just presenting counter arguments to
that. Not that I know thosefor a fact, but all of those
things I just mentioned are bullet pointsagainst that idea. Not that the idea

(51:22):
is impossible, but those would workagainst that theory. I still think we
should talk about the theory as awhole, though, because what I mean,
in the last thirty five forty years, has anybody had a shot like
that at a president? I meanno, nobody right, Like they've secured
every single thing, Like, howwould that be a coincidence? I think

(51:42):
that's just kind of you know,that's that's the out there idea, is
that someone like him could get soclose without there being more of an issue.
You know, Well, hopefully welearn a little bit more, but
you're right, I mean, hewould be a candidate if they were trying
to make him disappear for sure,Ash and appreciate the phone call. Thanks
for listening to us, really appreciatethat. Let's go ahead and go to

(52:05):
Dale. Dale's on the phone linefour two, five, five, eight
eleven ten, Dale. How's itgoing, Hi, Imeran, Hey,
a lot of Monday morning quarterbacks here, but I'll throw my two cents worth
in. I just feel that thetwenty four hour cycle of news and the
mainstream media have really twisted the thoughtsof a lot of people out there,

(52:25):
and that you know, they gotto get that under control, as well
as the talking heads in Hollywood thatinfluence people. I just can't help but
to believe that we're not going tosee more of this if we can't get
that kind of thing under control.Yeah, and I agree one hundred percent
in Dale. I think the mediaand this is why I kind of had

(52:46):
a if you didn't listen to thefirst segment of the show, there's definitely
a part of me that I amvery I don't know. I kind of
felt like am I complicit or contributingto that kind of says pool of rhetoric?
And I hope I'm not I tryto be as fair as possible,
But if every immedia person out therefrom either side isn't looking themselves in the

(53:08):
mirror about how can we not makeAmerica like this? If we are a
part of the problem, or arewe a part of the problem. I
think it's important for us to dothat in this industry because I do think
that we've played a huge part,not just me, not just our radio
station, but pretty much every singleperson that is in the media for one
of these national groups as well,that hey, you know what, we

(53:30):
need talking points of people will watchour shows, And did we get too
carried away with the way that wewere talking about this? That that has
to be a question we all haveto ask ourselves. Yeah, I agree,
Thanks, SALE appreciate the call.If you want to call in,
you can four two, five,five, eight eleven ten. Jd Vance.
I believe is being introduced. Ican't quite see. Yeah, there

(53:51):
is. He's been introduced as theofficial vice presidential pick, and he's walking
through and shaking hands, and it'sa giant rally. I mean, there's
not really a whole lot to listento. If he were to say some
thing, I might pull that upfor you even if it might be better
for me to listen to it overand try to figure out certain clips that
he says. Because when you getnamed the vice president, how long do

(54:13):
you think you have a chance tospeak? I mean they're there all week.
I mean if JD wanted to gofor four hours here, he could
And I feel like I got tobring up the conversation we had a month
a couple of months ago about facialhair and politicians. Yeah, so JD
when he was elected wasn't bearded.I don't think okay, wasn't bearded now.

(54:35):
I think of one former VP thatdid have a beard, but it
was only after he left office,Al Gore, Al Gore. Oh,
JD. Vance, let me seehere, what do you think? I
mean? His beard isn't a badbeard. It's just no, it's fine,
it's a little it's a little againstthe grain from what we know about
American American politics. We talked aboutfacial hair and politicians and when that kind

(54:57):
of went out a trend, what'sthe trend for VP now when O Kamala
Harris does not have a beard,so we can at least go far go
back that far? Would that be? Would that alert you to something.
I'd be like, are you usingthat term differently? I see, yeah,
it sounds like twenty twenty two heruns her office and is sporting the
beard. If you go back tolike twenty eighteen or so, there are

(55:19):
plenty of photos with him without thebeard. Aha. And I will tell
you this, the beard is agood look. He needed the beard.
He's round faced, baby faced.The beard definitely gives him a little bit
of credence. I don't always thinkbeard is a good look for guys in
politics. I think it actually doeshelp JD. Okay, and that's probably

(55:39):
why he's wearing it. They're like, hey, JD, do you wear
a beard. Yeah, that's whatpeople say they wear. I always think
that's where you wear it. You'rewearing the beard like you can just take
it off when you're done with it. I guess you can say you could
shave it off, right. Youdon't pull it off unless it's implants or
something. But anyway, he's thevice presidential pick. That's the big news
that's come out of the RNC today. Sides the official word, all the

(56:02):
delegates made their pledge, they arehave cast their votes with the role call
for the next president of the UnitedStates Donald Jay Trump. Yeah, no,
I uh, I think that.I mean, we knew that was
going to happen. JD. Vanceis just kind of an interesting pick.
What would be the angle? Like, what's your angle here? Is this?

(56:25):
You think he's going to help youwin? Do you think I had
one caller call in and say,this is a life insurance policy essentially that
once Donald Trump no longer is inoffice, he's got only four years.
JD. Vance is a guy tohand this off to that really thinks politically
in the same way. And guesswhat in four years JD will turn He'll
be forty in August, He'll beforty by the time we elect potentially him,

(56:49):
and he gets sworn in, he'dbe only forty four by the next
election that put him in. Ithink that the five youngest presidents of all
time. So, I mean,it's certainly this is done the idea that
he would be the next guy.That's why this decision was so important.
And I think he's not a baddecision if you're thinking politically about that.
It's just for this upcoming election.Did you think you needed somebody specifically for

(57:14):
this position to help win the election. You don't make this decision if that's
what you're thinking about. You makethis decision with the idea of this is
the legacy of this political movement.And we'll see what the reaction is and
what JD has to say about it. Big day for him. Hey,
it's a three fifty seven. We'llbe back with more on news radio eleven
ten kfab. You know how thesepoliticians go. This is a huge moment

(57:34):
for JD. Rightly, so he'sgoing to get a chance to speak to
this crowd that's there literally just tohear him speak. And I'm sure it's
going to be a lengthy statement andif there's anything important or a note that
comes of it, we will letyou know. But the senator from Ohio
officially is the pick as a runningmate for Donald J. Trump, who
officially secured the nominee after they didroll call today, we're getting your thoughts

(57:55):
four h two five, five,eight, eleven ten. Steve's on the
line. Steve, thanks for holdingme be in part the show today.
What are you thinking about? Hello, Amory, I just wanted to say
I feel really bad about the innocentman that lost his life. He is
a hero protecting his family the wayhe did. But I thought Trump should
have picked Evander Holyfield for his vicepresident. Could you imagine the photo op?

(58:20):
Yeah, that's funny. That's funny, I know, yea, No,
it's funny as the appreciate it.Thanks for the call, all right,
Yeah, Evader holy Field, it'sfunny guys with ear injuries. Right,
It's funny to joke about because youknow it's not serious. But man,
it's crazy stuff there. Yeah,as as a human in this country,

(58:43):
you know, you just wonder aboutwhat this whole episode means for the
way we talk about politics. AndI'm just hoping even though we know stuff
some stuff about this guy, wedon't really know where his obvious political leanings
are, the guy who shot atDonald Trump. Uh, But I hope
that this can create a different perspectiveand a different idea of the way that

(59:06):
we talk about this instead of beingso hostile about it. You talk about
this as if what it is ispolicies. Maybe we may not agree on
all the policies, but that doesn'tmean that we should have ill will violence
or try to kill people. Imean, that's third world country stuff.
Joe is on our phone line offour h two five five, eight eleven
ten. Joe, Welcome to theshow. What's on your mind? Good

(59:29):
afternoon, Hike. Well, Ispent a question, I kind of My
comment is, I cannot believe thatsomething of this magnitude and the super service
running it did not have drones.I it baffles me in this day and
age that if you're looking to dosecurity work, especially in their business,

(59:50):
those would be part of whever you'redoing. And my other comment is the
cop that came face to face withthis guy, how come we're not hearing
any words about what transpired with him? About about what about who the cop?
Face to face? Yeah? Thecop, the police officer. You
have a gun, I mean,I guess so I looked. I looked
it into this Joe, because wedid hear that, we did hear that

(01:00:14):
there was an officer who saw himand was trying to get onto the This
was not a Secret Service agent.There was a local officer from Butler County,
we were led to believe from ButlerCounty where this was, that he
climbed to the roof and encountered theguy the shooter, and the shooter saw

(01:00:34):
him and turned toward him, andthe officer dropped down to safety using the
ladder. According to however, ButlerCounty Sheriff Michael Sloopy, he said the
officer could not have wielded his owngun under those circumstances. Now, I
don't know if that's one hundred percentaccurate. Only the officer at this point
would really know what that is.But I'm guessing he was like halfway onto

(01:00:57):
the roof and basically in a panic. In that situation, while he's holding
on with both hands, he seesthis guy turn around and you know,
potentially could I don't know if helined him up or if he just turned
around and saw him, but maybejust out of that situation. The slope
of the roof looks steep enough tome to where you can't really see the
other side from anywhere except off tothe side right or from behind it.

(01:01:22):
So I'm guessing, based on itsmaterial he needed both hands to be able
to steady himself, and if hewould have reached for a weapon, he
would not have been able to fireit. That's my guess. I don't
know, but that's coming from thesheriff in Butler County that he said that
he didn't think that he could hecould take his gun out of his holster
in his circumstance. So well,I got one other comment the shooter's phone

(01:01:46):
beings that the FBI is handling this. Is this going to be something similar
to Biden's laptop or are we goingto travel on and on and on until
nobody knows nothing. Yeah, that'sthe biggest I think that's the biggest question
mark that we'll have about the investigation. Is there's got to be something.
I'm just my own opinion. I'velost my faith in him, Okay,

(01:02:07):
and restore it. I'm sorry.No, no, And here's the thing,
Joe, I'm I get it.I don't disagree with that. I
really just think that from this standpointright now, there has to be more
information about this guy, and weshouldn't be satisfied until we hear about it,
whether it whether it comes from theFBI investigating, whether it comes from

(01:02:30):
uh, you know, the parentsof this guy, and they try to
explain maybe what led him to this. What we do know is that this
guy was reclusive. What we alsoknow is that this guy was a bad
shot but wanted to make the rifleteam. He seemed to be interested in
guns. He also seemed to bea little bit left leaning in some of
his political views. We can't figurethat out exactly, and hopefully we get

(01:02:51):
more answers in the next few days. We shouldn't be satisfied until we get
more answers. I'm with you.Appreciate it, Joe, thanks for listening
you Bets on the line, Appreciateyou for listening in today. What are
you thinking about? Well, I'mkind of going to put myself out there
a little bit, and I'm Idon't know, it's just crazy that I'm
going to do this, you know, on the radio. But you know,

(01:03:12):
I don't know what happened in thissituation. Okay, I can't know
that, so one way or theother. I know from my personal experience
that there are things that go onthat people can be victimized. And I
may tell you that I had thatmicrowave havana syndrome done to me in the

(01:03:35):
state of Nebraska and nobody seems tocare. And I've actually tried to talk
to people about that because I wasso scared after it happened, and nobody
seems to care about it. Well, they the technology, Emmy. The
thing is when you have experience withwhat's out here and how people can come
at you and target you. Sothey can target you. Well, though,

(01:04:00):
can you get in some more detailsfor me? That's their frequency?
Somebody could put like just like ourcell phone can go from one cell phone
to another. Yeah, they havethe technology and you could google it and
look it up. Because after ithappened to me, I had to do
that. A friend of mine helpme. She get some information and showed
me this. He says, doyou think this is what halp? I
say, yeah, okay, youcould frequencies. Well, that's on the

(01:04:26):
it's been on the news about theHavana syndrome. That's but it's been going
on for a long time. Theydid it to me before. Uh,
that's been on the news. Itwas on sixty minutes I believe, you
know. Coast to coast sometimes willtalk about it. That's a long time
ago. They've had people talk aboutit, and they just tried to dismiss
everybody's crazy or that like the CIAdoesn't know anything about it, or law

(01:04:48):
enforcement doesn't know any about it.They do that. But it's so the
only thing you can do is justtry to live your life the best you
can. But so to me.Do I think somebody somewhere is capable of
anything? Yeah, but in thiscircumstances, I don't know. But what
I do know is when they dosomething covertly to you, it's really hard

(01:05:11):
to figure out who did it.But the technology is there and there's nobody
that you can go to to say, hey, can you help me?
Because you don't know who's good,who's not good, and who knows about
it? Who doesn't know? Okay, So so what I'm going to tell
you? Okay, Beth, Okay, I appreciate the info, Beth.
I'm on I searched this. I'mon a Wikipedia page, and I know
you can't always trust Wikipedia. There'sat least like eight thousand words on this

(01:05:34):
like this, like there is alot of information about people, their thoughts,
about different studies, about different things. So I hear, Beth,
can can I can? I canI go? Please? I'm I'm seeing
this and I'm understanding what you're saying, and I'm I'm just kind of skimming
through this. I can understand whyyou would be afraid that, you know,

(01:05:56):
people just don't believe you or theydon't care about it because they don't
they think it's a crazy thing.There's just way too much here for that
to be for people to be sodismissive. According to Politico, they reported
in twenty twenty three that the USArmy funded seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars
in a grant to Wayne State Universityfor a study to expose ferrets to certain

(01:06:16):
frequency waves and compare the effects ofwhat that would do to them. And
this was apparently done enough that PETAhas demanded to the Pentagon to stop testing
on live animals with frequency waves.So there's obviously something being done in this,
and I just don't know enough aboutit to publicly comment myself, But

(01:06:41):
Beth, I appreciate you bringing thisto me because I didn't know about this.
But I think it's important for usto keep asking questions because there's obviously
enough in this right now here forme to say, Okay, well,
there's obviously information about it, andpeople have opinions about it, from our
government to doctors. So why arepeople still being persecuted basically in society for

(01:07:02):
talking about it? I don't knowwhy that would be the case. So
bets keep fighting, a good fighting. Well, we'll do the best that
we can to get more information.Thanksfully, Yeah, thanks for the call,
Dorothy, Cheryl Charlie stick on theline. I'll get to you next
right here on news radio eleven tenkfab Emrie sung on news radio eleven ten
kfab Well. I was listening tothe guy that said Bender Holyfield would be

(01:07:29):
a good vice president, and Iknow that's funny. I left, but
I was thinking to myself, ifI were former President Trump, there's no
such thing as bad publicity, weknow, I would start saying things like
I still hear you, America.I still hear that you want secure borders.
I hear that you want lower inflation. I hear that you want a

(01:07:50):
reasonable cost of living. I stillhear you that you want individual rights protected,
and that you want the Constitution protected. I can still hear. I
think that'd be an awesome like justyeah, no, an awesome thing for
the speech writers to grow it.I absolutely one hundred and ten percent you
are on the money there. I'llbe interested to see how they incorporate that,

(01:08:11):
because that definitely is an opportunity forthem. You know, the fastest
selling shirt like ever was his mugshot. Hey, something like that I think
would go really well, especially ifyou cant side buy the shirt as soon
as I still hear you America,Yeah, for sure. Hey, Dorothy,
I appreciate you calling in. Thanksfor listening. Have a good day
you too. Cheryl's on the line. Cheryl, You're with Emory on news
radio eleven ten kfab Thank you.I don't know if he's covered this,

(01:08:32):
but yesterday they said they did notfind any ID on the shooter, but
they could identify him by DNA.Do they have like a field DNA test?
And also if he had no ID, how did they find his car?
Uh? Yeah, so I guessI didn't see that he didn't have

(01:08:54):
his ID on him. I don'tknow about how quickly they could positively identify
somebody who wouldn't otherwise have been intheir records that quickly, other than the
fact that he would have been identifiedeither by a parent or someone else.
The coverage that I have read andI have heard from people who were there,

(01:09:15):
was that he was acting strange outsidethe campaign event while somebody said,
Hey, look, this guy's actingreally weird, and then police tried to
find him. By the time theyfound him, he was already on the
roof. A police officer followed himup there. Guy turns around a police
officer, not in a position toshoot, he just drops back down.
He sets himself up and fires hisweapon, and then he's taken out after

(01:09:36):
he gets a few shots off withhis AR fifteen. Now they're saying that
the gun was identified as potentially hisfather's AR fifteen. I am still waiting
on one hundred percent confirmation on that, but it seems like his parents have
positively identified him. So that's theonly thing I can think of is they
kind of had an idea of whoit was somehow, whether it was ID

(01:09:58):
or whether it was the way thathe looked or something that he had on
him, and then they went tohis parents' house or got in contact with
his parents forty minutes away from wherethis took place, and they were able
to positively identify him. But that'sa good question, Cheryl. I guess
I just didn't hear about that IDpart or how they positively identified him.
But the parents are saying that that'sthat's their son. Yeah, thanks to

(01:10:21):
yeap, no problem, Cheryl.Charlie's on our phone line four two,
five, five, eight to eleventen. Hello, what's up, Charlie.
I had a quick comment and thenan observation number one. We now
have a competition between a candidate that'sbeen shot in the head and one that
hasn't. And the guy who's beenshot in the head is still better mentally

(01:10:42):
than the one who hasn't. Buton the police officer the engaged the shooter
and then backed out, that hasa significant impact. I've I joined the
Marines in the seventies and have donecompetitive shooting, and when you're just shooting
at paper targets cool and easy.But when you engage somebody who was armed,

(01:11:03):
which is what happened with the policeofficer, it can really throw you
off. And I think that policeofficer gave him a boost of a adrenaline.
It changed his heartbeat. He wasunder pressure and he pulmed his shots.
I mean, there's so many differentthings to make a good accurate shot,
and he did not make I mean, he was relatively close obviously hit

(01:11:24):
him in the air. Yeah,but I think that police officer actually saved
President Trump's life by just interfering withhim. Did that guy's heartbeat? Interesting?
Well, Charlie, that's an interestingperspective. I hadn't thought about it
that way. And what we're hearingfrom the Butler County Sheriff. Like I
said, was that he said there'sno way the officer could have engaged with

(01:11:44):
him in that spot on the roofas he climbed up there. But there's
definitely something to be said for thoseevents and how that potentially could have affected
what transpired and the pressure that thatperson on top of that roof was on
before he made those shots. Iappreciate the call to Holy Thanks for listening.
