Jesiuous hell yea America than for regus for nations is wrong.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
This is Columbia's Morning News with Gary David and Christopher
Thompson on one O three point five FM and five
sixty AM w VOC.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Hey, good morning to you. Welcome into a Monday, back
at it. It's the twenty ninth day of September. Wow,
already October looms sixteen after six, and it's good to
have you here. I'm Gary, that's Christopher.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Good to be here and not be into our twenty
four hour storm coverage.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
The truth. Huh. Can we just take take a moment
and and and offer thanks to Hurricane Umberto for dragging
Amelda out into the Atlantic forest. Thank you? Yeah? How
much that forecast changed over the weekend? Huh wow, very nice.
So yeah, it is a Melda. Now it did get
(01:09):
a name. It is a tropical storm. It is forty
five mile hour maxistain winds. But it's nothing to worry about, really,
I mean really, uh some rain, yeah, flooding rain for us, doubtful,
very matter of fact. Uh, this this thing is going
to take a turn rather abruptly. It's not gonna get
(01:29):
anywhere close to our coastline at all? Uh? Is it?
Is it going to go head right back out into
the mid Atlantic again thanks to Umberto that big What
is that a Cat four now? Was a Cat five
for a bit there? I think it's Cat four now
that's just dragging this thing on out in the end
of nowhere. And I was looking at the National Hurricane
(01:50):
Center and their precipitation forecast now, uh, from from tropical
Storm of Melda, and this is uh they say this
is valid from two o'clock this morning through eight am Wednesday. Okay,
a goat time that on Friday, we thought we're gonna
get a bunch of rain around here at least and
a few gus but be about it. Well, now it's
(02:12):
barely this at least this model is barely showing any
rain for South Carolina at all from this thing. Wow. Yeah,
Now I don't know how accurate that is, but that's
the National Hurricane Center's tropical storm rainfall forecast. And I
mean maybe maybe just touching Charleston, that's about it. Okay,
So we'll take that. We will take it.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
And we got a pretty nasty Facebook message and you
heard Thomas at the top of the hour talking about
the fact that the government governor had declared his state
of emergency. It was like on Friday, Yeah, I mean
that's just that's the mechanics of government. I mean you
can't just crank that up at a moment's notice. So yeah,
you know, for people who to criticize the governor and say, oh,
you know, it's we're barely going to get a drop
(02:54):
of rain. Why is he declaring a state of emergency,
It's it's the process. He's not saying we're in for
an emergency this week. It's it's all about how government
works and how you got to have everybody on standby
just in case.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
I mean, this is this has happened before. Yeah, if
you're a governor or whoever makes the decisions like this
this case the governor, Yeah, which which side? Which side
do you want to be wrong on? You know, I mean,
do you want to not say anything and suddenly we
get a wopped No.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
You didn't ever sit code red or anything. It was
just starting the process.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
As the forecast looked on Friday, we were going to
get something, and certainly the coaster was going to get
a lot more of something. So there's where it is,
all right, So Uh, this is going to be a
big nothing burger for us, and thank you for that.
And are we going to reach October here without any
hurricanes impacting us at all? Looks like we will because
there's nothing else out there right now. Good, Okay, other
(03:47):
news run down, big stories, hot topics here for a
Monday morning. You know, as I was doing the show
Prepace morning, this story aged quickly. I saw it Friday
and almost forgot about it, and none of the local
paper or publications even mentioned it. But R J May
has played guilty. Yeah, that trial was supposed to start
(04:08):
in October. At the last time we heard they were,
you know, the judge had delayed whether or not there'd
be a change in venue, wanted to wait until after
jury's selection was at least attempted before making a decision
on that. Well that'll never happen because Rjay entered guilty
plea to five counts of distributing child pornography.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Well, I don't think that had anything to do with
the change of venue. It was all about evidence and
what was going to get admitted.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Yep, that was what it was. So we'll have more
details on that. A lawyer for the state election Commission
that has been in the news for all the wrong
reasons here as of late pledging Friday that when that
agency comes up with a proposed agreement with the FEDS
as to whether or not we'll give private voter information, that, well,
(04:56):
your confidential voter information will be protected, says the state
Election Commission attorney. Okay, okay, well right, I'm losing I'm
quickly losing interest in that story. I tell you, I
really am. Uh we uh was it Friday? We had
Alan Wilson on, and among other things we talked about,
(05:16):
was this this Pamela evid add that I saw it
one time. I'm not sure it's still actually airing or not.
I've seen that, you know, the Ald Trump ad several
times since Friday, but I haven't seen the ad that
I first saw on Thursday, where they used old video
footage to imply that government master was endorsing Pamela Abbott.
(05:37):
He's not, and word was he was quite upset that
she had done that. Uh. Still, you've you've got more
and more news about that advertisement, which again I haven't
seen it. I saw it one time. I haven't seen
it since. Despite promises to cut back. Apparently the fed
were still pushing a lot of money into places like
Monkey Island, Uh posting Courage A long piece over this,
(06:02):
I mean, more and more money continues to flow into
Alpha Genesis over in the mbassy better known as Monkey
Island Posting Career. Also with this story, here's the headline.
South Carolina is becoming a data center hot a data
center hotspot, but the state doesn't know how many are coming. Okay, well,
(06:23):
we know on the downsides of all these data centers
is the amount of electricity they suck up. It'd be
kind of nice to know what to plan for, right.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Yeah, somebody needs to have a number in mind and say, okay,
this is enough exactly.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
This no longer makes sense. If you're going to keep
bringing them in here, what's your plan to, you know,
allow the rest of us to be able to turn
on the lights or get water out of our faucets.
True as well. More violence over the weekend targeted violence Michigan.
A Mormon church an attack there, leaving at least four
(06:57):
people dead. That number is varying depending on reports. A
lot more injured at church burned down in a suspect
also dead. Thomas Sandford, we have two different stories this
morning about attacks. This one the most heinous and in
both instances, this one and a case up at North
(07:18):
Carolina at a restaurant on the coast there where a
couple of people were shot and killed. In both cases,
these are former Marines that we're instigating this violence. Trump
will meet today with the top four congressional leaders. Says
this a government showdown, This government shut down of this
(07:41):
showdown is looming. I think both words work. Yeah, there's
a report that Soro's back leftist group is behind the
campaign to force this, by the way, pressuring Democrats not
to come to any agreement with Trump over this. Trump
will also be in the House in the room addressing
the nation's top military leaders that wantaco that meeting tomorrow.
(08:02):
We talked about this on Friday, Pete hagg Zeff calling
for all top commanders to come into the room. Trump
will address them as well. A lot of people are
thinking this is a this is the this is the
you know, we're gonna trimp the fat here in the
in the upper rachel On range of the military. But
others still wondering does this mean something else? Okay, Eric
(08:24):
Adams dropping out of the New York City mayoral race.
This has been talked about for a bit now. He
wasn't faring We all the polls, the current mayor of
New York City. He was buying everybody, Yeah, he was,
And there was talking about the Trump administration trying to
find a place for him if he would get out.
So he has dropped out of that race. He dropped
out yesterday. He's just gonna make any difference or not.
I mean, this communist who's got the lead, has got
(08:47):
a big lead. I think the last time I saw you,
like a twenty point lead. Did Montamie over? And who's
the third what's his name? The freedom Fighter? Yeah, Curtis Yah, Yeah, yeah,
thank you? Yes, And well it's uh, it's it's sufficially over. Now.
Kimmela's back on all the ABC affiliates, says both Sinclair
(09:07):
and Nexttar decided to put his show back on. I
figured it was going to happen. It was a matter
of time, and I think it's going to happen that quick.
But there it is. All right, friends. We'll be talking
about that and more coming up today on this the
Monday morning edition of Columbia's Morning News. Always good to
have you on board. Keeping the commitment. I love you
guyslable twenty four to seven. Listen to you every day
half for years.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
One O three point five FM and five sixty am
w VOC. This is Columbia's Morning News with Gary David
and Christopher Thompson on one O three point five FM
and five sixty am w VOC.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Time now six forty two. Good morning. It's Monday, September
twenty ninth. And once again, Amelda is not going to
bring much of much maybe some impat you know, we've
we've got a seventy percent chance of rain today, for example,
but right now the radar is not showing anything anywhere
close to us, and uh wind speeds you know, not much,
(10:05):
uh seven or ten miles an now maybe August to
twenty two. That's gonna be about it. So this thing
is getting drug off into the Atlantic by a hurricane Umberto,
and that's a that's a good thing. So, uh, I mean,
there there's a there is a chance we could go
through the day to day and really not see you
know it be any rain. If we get it, probably
later on the day and the end of the night,
(10:26):
if we get it at all. Okay, no complaints there
all right so of the news. UH Trump over the
weekend on his truth social platform saying that he would
he was ordering UH Pete Hagsath to use the military
to protect ICE facilities in Portland, Oregon, which he said,
(10:51):
We're under siege from attack by UH by antimum, antiva,
whichever you prefer. I'm also authorizing full force if necessary,
which means that well, that would would be referring to
troops authority to use weapons. We know things are not
good important. They haven't been for a long, long, long,
(11:13):
long time. And this after this attack on the ice
facility in Dallas last week, it continues to ramp up.
We have seen well broad View, Illinois a couple of
days ago, protest outside the fence line at the ice
(11:37):
facility and protesters shouting arrest ice, shoot ice, shoot the blankers.
Let's pause for a moment consider this. These are law
(12:00):
enforcement officers carrying out their duties as assigned by the
federal government, and you have protesters shouting shoot ice, shoot ice.
This is just days after this this Dallas shooting. There
were some arrest made, thankfully this continues. As a matter
(12:27):
of fact, at least one rioter who was arrested was
was carrying a firearm outside the science facility. Where do
they get this from? Do you think, huh these protesters
feel it's a okay again, here we are in America
(12:54):
with people shouting take ice out of the equation for
a second. These are protesters that are that are they're chanting,
encouraging be shooting and killing of another human being. Forget
that they're rice agents for a second. Oh oh no,
I guess you can't, can you, Because in the minds
(13:15):
of these individuals, because they're ice agents, they are I
W don't know what they're certainly Nazis, right, they're Gestapo,
they're subhuman, they're evil, they're monsters, you name it. So
it's okay, shoot them, okay? And where do they get
(13:37):
this from? Well, they feel pretty emboltant, don't they, Because
you know, you're in a situation where maybe not those
exact words, but certainly it's being implied by by by
leftist leaders out there that this is this is something
we should be doing right now. Now. I'm not dumb
(14:07):
enough to think that there are some deranged individuals out
there who would be saying this anyway. Well, you got
a crowd of about two hundred people that are chanting
at man, that is some massive group think right there
going on in a very bad way. So we saw
that in Broadview, Illinois a couple of days ago. And again,
(14:28):
where are they getting it from? Well, over and over
again we've been we've been told by the Democrat leaders,
maybe not to shoot ice, but certainly to get up
in their face, getting their grill, to obstruct them when
they were possible, to keep them from doing their jobs,
to dos them, to set up apps and sites that
(14:50):
tell you tell people where they are. What did what
did you think was going to happen? By the way,
on the lighter side of things, I suppose you can
call it this Upton, Massachusetts. You may have seen the video.
It's just this west of Boston. A woman who was
upset that an immigrant was being arrested, protesting, yelling at
(15:16):
agents as they made this arrest. Well, she pulled her
car over and got out to harass the ICE agents
for doing their job, and forgot to put her car
in park. She was so upset, needless to say, it
started a roll and it rolled right into a lake
(15:39):
and sunk karma car. Mu Yes, I'm sure the ICE
agents got a good chuckle out of that one. Huh,
she was not in the car, okay, but that was
taking it another level. She was not in the car,
Remember she was outside the car. Are hollering insult to
(16:02):
the ice agents doing their job when her car rolled
into the lake and sunk. I don't know does insurance
cover that? You know, some enterprising adjust out there might
find a way to not pay for that one.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
You're listening to Columbia's Morning News on one oh three
point five FM on five sixty AM WVOC. Once again,
here's Gary David and Christopher Thomas seven fifteen.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Good morning, tell you Monday, September the twenty ninth, and
the story we thought we'd be talking about all morning long,
we're really not. But Melda, it is now tropical storm.
It's that that system has got its name, that generated
so much concern into last week about what it could
bring to us. Now looks like it won't bring much anything.
No complaining here. There's a good chance we get rained today,
(16:52):
but maybe later on today if then. I don't know.
I mentioned earlier I looked at the National Hurricane Center
and there outlook for precipitation from this tropical system between
now and Wednesday, shows almost none for us here in
the Midlands, and as a matter of fact, a lot
of the coastal areas maybe not be getting any either,
(17:13):
if that's accurate. So yeah, the other, the big, the
big storm umberto the Cat four, is dragging this thing
back out to the Atlantics or our run of good
luck continues this hurricane season. Let's hope it continues through
October as well. Not out of the not out of
(17:34):
the ordinary for us to get an October hurricane, of course.
So but for this one, wind gusts potentially twenty maybe
twenty five miles an hour. That's gusts and a chance
of rain. That's gonna be about it for us. Beautiful,
all right. So the word came down Friday that R. J.
(17:55):
May has changed his tune and is entered again guilty
plea to five counts of distributing child porn. In exchange
for that, the FEDS have agreed to dismiss the remaining
five counts of the original indictment.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Okay, so it doesn't each count Carrie what twenty years
it could?
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Yes, guidance would call for him to serve twenty years
behind bars, although yes, he could face twenty years on
each count, and maybe that's what he was thinking here. Okay, Well,
I don't know. If you face twenty years on each count,
that's one hundred years. Yeah, so you're not getting out regardless. Yeah,
I'll go for a hundred years instead of two hundred. Yeah.
I don't know. Of course, again, even if he were
(18:42):
to get twenty years on each count, one hundred years.
We've seen this story before. Suddenly somebody's out one of
these days. Although he's not one hundred years. I don't know.
He's not a lawyer.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
I don't know that he knows the mechanics of making
any kind of a deal with the federal government. And
I don't know if the government was willing to make
a deal with him. I guess we'll find out.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Yeah, well, they apparently have. The Feds have agreed to
this deal for me.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
I'm talking about it the guidance as far as what
they'll recommend to the judge as far as yeah, and
will it be twenty years for each count?
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Now, the statutory penalty for each count is five to
twenty years in prison.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
So the government can stand up and say, you know
your honor based on the fact that the you know
the accused is to you know, at least cooperating. We're
willing to suggest five instead of twenty. So now the
judge doesn't have to listen.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
But no, but now if you're talking five years on
five counts, you're talking twenty five years and you know,
good behavior and all that, and you know, yeah, that's
a whole different story. So this must be what R. J.
May was looking at. And hey, you know, if I
agree to plead guilty, then they'll go light on me
on the sentencing. They'll go the five, the twenty on
each count and YadA, YadA, YadA. Well we'll see, time
(20:04):
will tell. He's also agreed to admit to a polygraph
exam on the issue of assets if the Fed's determine
it necessary, and that could draw some attention to well,
his financial disclosure. So who knows what all he'll be
asked under a polygraph.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
This could end up drying attention to the freedom for
the Freedom Caucus exactly.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
This could cause a little consternation for the Freedom Caucus here. Now,
remember there was more to this story, but because it
didn't happen here, there was nothing the FEDS could do
about it. But recall the allegations that he had traveled
to was at Argentina somewhere in South America to have
(20:50):
sex with an underaged individual, remember that part of the story.
But again, because that didn't happen here in this country,
the FEDS couldn't do anything about that. But you know,
although he's not being tried for that, that will probably
play in I we're thinking it was Columbia. It was Columbia, Okay, yeah,
(21:14):
remind me, I forgot the details of that. Was it
one trip or was it multiple trips?
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Prosecutors say they investigated whether he used a fake name
to travel there three times?
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Three times? Yeah, okay, And again, well he was in
charged with that. He would have been tried on that
here in this country there you know that, Hey, judges
are human beings, too, right, and that's you know, it'll
probably be somewhere in the back of a judge's mind
when they determine whether or not what the sentencing should
be on this. Well, we were just days away from
(21:49):
his trial starting. Remember the news last week was again
he wanted to change a venue, but the judge was
putting that off. They were going to wait until the
judge was until they started the jury selection process and
to see if maybe there were it's gonna be hard
to pick a jury here in Columbia to hear this
case based on the pre trial publicity. Not to worry
(22:09):
about that.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Now, his only chance was if the judge suppressed the
evidence right. And you have to wonder if the Feds
came forward and said, look, you're you're not gonna win that.
And if this thing starts, it doesn't end, it doesn't
end well for you.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Oh yeah, you fight this. I'm sure they told him
that you fight this. Then you know we're going we're
going ten counts and we're going to push for the
maximum of.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Free twenty years on every count. Yeah, you'll never see
the light of day again. Ever, I mean, they might
have been, they might have played it again. It's the
fact that you're not a lawyer, that you don't know
the way that court process works.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
That didn't help. Yeah, you wonder if this would be
any different. And again, even with this plea deal, with
this guilty plea, if he might not have gotten a
better deal had he actually used people who are actual
attorneys to negotiate it.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
Well, we don't want it to sound as if we're
rooting for r Jmay But well, no, yeah, it's it's
a disgusting case regardless, and he's going to go away
for a while.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
And the type of case that we're hearing him way
way too much about these days. Nothing new to out
of Charleston, by the way on that former magistrate to Guysnell.
But that one is if you can, if you can
find whether it's worse than this one, that's the one
I think it was.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
I'm trying to remember if it was Bacari Sellers maybe
on social media who brought up a good point. He said,
you know, at one point, do you not look at
every single case he's ruled on?
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Sure all that magistrate?
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Yeah, in a new light and yeah, yeah, I mean
this guy's a an accused criminal.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Of the of the of the worst of the worst kind.
Yeah yeah. And if you're not familiar with that story, uh,
I'm not going to repeat it here.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
You never know when the news will break, but leave
us on and you will. I think we want to
see more details right now. One O three point five
FM and five sixty AM dou w voc This is
Columbia's Morning News with Gary David and Christopher Thompson. On
one O three point five FM and five sixty AM
(24:30):
w VOC.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
There's seven forty Good morning, Good to have you along.
From Monday, September twenty ninth. Again a reminder that Amelda
is gonna gotta really do much anything for us. Doesn't
look like and so as I say that, we'll get
dumped on here. But the picture tends to be right
now that you know, some rain from this thing, but
kind of like this past weekend, all that rain we're
supposed to get, I'm not sure where that that went,
(24:54):
but anyway, we got some, we got some. But Amelda
is certainly not a threat to us by any stretch
of the imagination. As Umberto continues to drag this thing
for hadn't started yet, that turn hadn't started yet, but
it's gone on long before it could potentially impact us.
Even the coastal areas. They're starting to scale back now
on preparations there too, after being you know, majorly concerned
(25:15):
about what that thing could do. So that's the good
news there this morning. All right, So New York City
developments in the mayoral race there again, typically wouldn't spend
a whole lot of time thinking about the mayor's race
in New York City. You know it used to be well,
you knew, unless your name is Rudy Giuliani, you know
you're going to like a Democrat mayor more than likely recently.
(25:38):
But this time they could elect a communist. We don't
call him a socialist, dude's a communist. Man. Eric Adams,
the current mayor, has dropped out of that race. I
dropped out yesterday. Election Day is in five weeks, saying
(25:58):
he just wouldn't able to raise the funds for a
serious campaign. So this leaves a three way race. Right,
You've got the communist Mam Donnie, You've got the former
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, and you have Curtis lava
(26:18):
As the Republican who never stood a chance of this race.
Does that?
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Does he leave because he's got issues and you know,
he's got legal problems and everything else and saw no chance.
Where Does he leave because he sees this as the
best best path for Cuomo to have a chance against Mandannie.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
I'm thinking it's number two. Yeah, you know, And there
was there was talk here in the in the last
month or so that you know, the Trump administration might
be looking to, you know, find something for Eric Adams
to do trying to get him out of that race,
try to keep a Communist from being elected the mayor
of New York. But uh man, I mean Mandanmi. I
(26:59):
guess what last week? I saw his lead in that
race was like twenty points. It's really hard to fathom. Now,
New York says a whole different place. I get it.
You talk about a melting pot. Boy, that's that's one
(27:19):
right there. But even at that, the idea that New
York City is going to elect a communists unless something
weird happens here, that's where it's going here. So I
don't know how, you know, really, based on the polling,
(27:41):
how Cuomo can pull this one out. Got a better
chance with Adams on the race. Yeah, But anyway, so
that's that.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
And then you've got all these candidates who are going
to start campaigning for president, who are going to have
to decide how they I mean, they've been asked about
Mum Donnie every time they go on to talk show,
and it's always, well, he's the candidate, Well he's he's
the guy that New York could Democrats wanted. You know,
nobody's willing to go beyond that. But they're going to
have to state their true feelings about him at some
(28:09):
point and how they feel about you know, one of
the biggest cities in America being led by a Democrat socialist.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
And this is going to encourage more of the of
his ilk to try to seek higher office, maybe even
the highest office.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
Well, it certainly encourages that that way over on that
side of the party to do whatever they do. I mean,
I wouldn't have think they would have. I would have
thought they would have felt encouraged before. But now this,
this gives them. Okay, all right, maybe we can have
a bigger say in the party.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Now. What happens in New York City doesn't translate too
many other places in this country.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
No, that's the good news there, but it is. I mean,
it's the centerpiece.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Mm hm yeah. You know. I there's a there's a
part of me that says, hey, go ahead and do this.
I'm fascinating to see how this turns out if if
this guy tries to implement the policies he's talking about
on the campaign trail anyway.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
Well, I mean, if you're Gavin Newsom, for example, how
do you campaign there in a couple of years and
you know, snub the mayor, act as if you don't
know who the mayor is.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Yeah, I don't know. I guess it's the possibility that
by the time that rolls around, that that mayor may
be so unpopular that it won't matter. Yeah. You know again,
you start driving businesses out of business. You start to
you know, the people that are being tax the most,
contributing the most to the tack base. He was saying,
(29:44):
never mind, we're out of here speaking of communists. Uh.
Her name is uh, or was uh Joanne Cheesemard. She
went by Asada Shakur. This is a This goes back
(30:07):
to the to nineteen seventy seven, when she was convicted
of first degree murder for shooting and killing a New
Jersey State trooper during a routine and a traffic stop
on the Jersey Turnpike. She was sentenced to life in prison.
Two years later, with some help, she broke out and
(30:27):
fled to Cuba, and ever since our government has tried
to get her back. Well, she died at the age
of seventy seven last week, still in Cuba. And now
you've got the Chicago Well, there's a lot of these,
you know, left extremist organizations are doing this, but the
(30:49):
Chicago Teachers Union, okay, honoring her as a revolutionary fighter,
their official ex account posting rest and power, rest in peace.
Asada Shakur called her a revered elder of black liberation
and quoted her saying, it's our duty to fight for
(31:11):
our freedom. It's our duty to win. Blah blah blah
blah blah. Okay, this is the Chicago Teachers' Union now
memorializing and celebrating a woman who was sentenced to life
in prison for murdering a cop. How far have we
strayed away from what this country was built on? Man, Now,
(31:36):
this could be any other organization, but this is the
Teachers Union in Chicago. Again, here we go the people
whose education were entrusting for our kids, and they're celebrating
not just a communist but somebody who shot and murdered
(31:59):
a cop. Wow, there's the there's a chunk of this
country that is so far, so far off base that
they'll they'll never be rained in again.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
It's not gonna happen. Starting to say the quiet part
out loud, yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
Uh huh uh huh. And they're okay with it. They
are a okay with it. Oh and the what was it?
Des Moines, Iowa? Did you see this one? Des Moines,
Iowa ice arresting a Guyanese national. At a time of
the rest, they found a loaded handgun on him, a
fixed blade hunting knife, three grand in cash. Ian Andre Roberts,
(32:39):
who were his day job, the superintendent of the Des
Moines Public school System. Yeah, the superintendent. There you go
at our schools again. Huh.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
You're listening to Columbia's morning news on one oh three
point five FM on five sixty. Yeah, I'm doubvo seed
once again. Here's Gary David and Christopher Thompson.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Yeah, it's coming up on sixteen after eight. It's Monday,
September twenty ninth, and Thankfullyamelda is not a big story
round here today. We'll just leave it at that. I'm
Gary David. That is Christopher Thompson right over there. So
I didn't see any of it over the weekend. I
know you were busy on Saturday with our best game
cut coverage, but you catch much of the Ryder Cup.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
Oh yeah, I mean I tried. Yeah, I mean I
saw a good bit Friday, okay, and then I saw
some yesterday. I'd given up by yesterday. I didn't realize
that the Americans were going to stage a massive comeback.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
They did give it their best, good old USA try. Yeah,
just waited too late, too big a hole to begin with.
But the behavior is getting a lot of attention. Yeah,
so much for the gentleman's game. I guess this.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
You know, this happens every couple of years, but you
put a Ryder Cup in New York, it escalated to
an entirely different and very uncomfortable level.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
Yeah, this is why you don't play the Ryder Cup
in Philadelphia by the way there. Yeah, but I guess
it's just I guess it's just a it's a reflection
of society where we've gone these days, right, I mean,
this is this is what it is.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
And it's partly that and partly as Rory McElroy pointed out,
the fact that the first two days, Americans had nothing
to cheer for, so, I mean, they were awful. So
the only thing that American fans could do was root
against Europe.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Yeah, okay, root against him is fine, but I mean
it's what got said. And I mean golf is different
from the other sport because of the proximity to the players. Yeah,
you're right there. You could reach out and well, you
could reach out. You know what I'm saying. You gotta
wonder if that sort of behavior might one day lead
to something we don't want to see. Anyway. Yeah, I
(34:49):
didn't get you any of it, but I heard all
about it, more about the behavior than the golf itself. Really,
it was unfortunate. Yeah, Okay, today the President will meet
with top congressionally. This is the plan to meet today.
The deadline to do it or shut it down is
well tomorrow. So this one again, this is one of
(35:15):
these things that the boy crying wolf. Way too many
times we start not even paying attention to these looming
government shutdowns, these these budget battles. It's time and time
again we go through this. Now. The difference in this
one is the administration is not preparing just for furloughs,
but the layoffs if this happens. Now that was supposed
to have been meeting what last week I got called off.
(35:37):
But as usual, the two sides are very far apart
on this. What's new? I mean, there's really no new
news to this point in this. The new news will
be if, in fact, the government does shut down and
if in fact layoffs do ensue, that will make it
a lot different.
Speaker 3 (35:52):
Even more important than these talks. I have a feeling
both sides are pulling right now.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Oh don't you know? Yeah? All right? Who is going
to be hurt worse politically by a shutdown? There are
reports that this group Indivisible. You've heard of them before, right,
We've been hear about them for a long time. Matter
of fact, they were the group behind the recent No
King's protests. Their reports now that they are really lobbying hard,
(36:24):
putting pressure on Senate Democrats not to come to any
kind of a bipartisan solution with the GOP. Remember who
this group is? A group that has gotten close to
eight million dollars in grants over the past eight years
from the George Soros Open Society Foundation. Funning how that
(36:49):
name always pops up, doesn't it. Well? Of course, the
Trump administration has been making overtures about investigating the Soros
Foundation for their role in bank rolling extremist left wing groups,
and the President tomorrow will now we get in reports
(37:11):
we'll speak to this meeting of top generals and admirals
at Quantico. This is the story that popped up last
week that Pete Haggseth has summoned what some eight hundred
generals and admirals from across the globe to come to
Virginia for a get together. I mean, when I don't
(37:35):
know about you. When I first heard this, I thought,
wait a minute, are we getting ready to embark up
on something that we don't know about? Here? You're gonna
bring all the generals and admirals into one room together.
I mean, that's pretty much unheard of. And then't there
was talk that well, you know, because Hegxeth himself has
said in the past he wants to trim the ranks
at the top and it top heavy. We got way
more generals and admirals, way more than we had, say
(37:57):
in World War Two. Put more of an emphasis on
the g I s and not the generals. That's Hexas's idea. Here.
Now reports that that Trump himself will speak of this
meeting tomorrow. Yeah, I don't know all that's going to
be talked about, but we'll hedge roll tomorrow. Will there
be pink slips issued as they walk out that door, Well,
(38:19):
we'll find out tomorrow. I guess. Apparently Trump participating in
this was not part of the original plan, but he
did decide that he wanted to be there. So, hm,
what exactly is this one all about? We're uh, we're
fixing to find out. We didn't talk to any link
(38:46):
this morning about what happened in Michigan yesterday, and we
don't have the whole story quite yet. They're still sifting
through what's left of that Mormon church in Grand Block Township.
And here we go, a man said to be a
(39:06):
former marine decorated marine drove into a drove his truck
into this church, started firing at churchgoers. Four maybe five dead,
others quite possibly because well he also apparently used some
sort of an accelerant that wind up up burning the
(39:28):
church just about to the ground. And there are still
people that are unaccounted for. I don't know if you
noticed this when you go to church or not. I
didn't really notice it yesterday, but I have noticed in
the past, and it is disconcerting but unfortunately necessary these
days to if you look around, you'll be able to
(39:49):
spot them, especially in bigger churches. There are people there
that are keeping an eye on other people, like schools.
If it's a sad state of affairs where you go
to church on a Sunday morning, and you realize, Okay,
that guy's got an AIRPCE in, and so does that
guy over there. But it's where we are. And there
(40:12):
were two shootings. There was two, Yeah, the one up
in North Carolina. A guy pulls up in a boat
to an ocean side restaurant. Nobody expects that, uh huh.
Three dead there, at least eight injured there. And again
a case where cops say the shooter is again a
former marine claims to be a veteran with PTSD. Yeah, yeah,
(40:34):
that sounds like a much different story right there. And
again one that unfortunately is affecting way too many of
our veterans. And now in this case somebody else at
least three other people and families who died in that.
(40:54):
I don't know. Is there anything shocking left out there
these days?
Speaker 2 (40:58):
The conversation begins here, This the society problem.
Speaker 1 (41:02):
This is the way people act nowadays. They don't think
they've just ad one O.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
Three point five FM, five sixty AM w VOC. This
is Columbia's Morning News with Gary David and Christopher Thompson
on one O three point five FM and five sixty
am w VOC.
Speaker 1 (41:21):
Final thoughts at eight forty two on a Monday morning.
First up again, and I just double check this. Uh,
do we even get a rain out of Amelda at all?
Mentioned earlier? This morning, I looked at the National Hurricane Center.
One of the mini models they put out of the
products they offer is the rainfall rain forecast. That's just
(41:41):
a potential from their weather prediction center. Okay, I looked
at it this morning early. It showed just maybe Charleston
getting a little bit of rain out of this thing.
And their update at the latest update now doesn't even
show rain coming on shore. Huh. Predictions are the big
(42:05):
one out there, and Berto is going to really drag
this thing way way away from our coastline. It's not
even to get close to our coastline. But they thought
that at least the coastal areas we get a lot
of rain and you know, some high winds from it.
But that's looking less and less likely with every run here.
It looks like, at least from the National Hurricane Center's perspective.
Nice Okay, I'm beginning to thing more and more like
(42:29):
we might not even see a drop of rain out
of this sucker. Okay, We've got a.
Speaker 3 (42:34):
Good bid on Friday and some on Saturday. But I
think we could probably still use a bit more, just
we don't want to see tropical storms.
Speaker 1 (42:43):
It seemed like we got a lot of the house,
but it must have been while we were asleep, you know,
because anyway, Okay, final thoughts here the posting Courier with
this disturbing story. We know we've become a destination in
our state for these big data centers, and we know
what that brings along with it. It sucks up electricity,
(43:05):
It sucks up groundwater. And this is one of our
problems with the you know, having enough electricity to go
around these days, is these data centers the massive amounts
of energy they use. But the story is this, we
don't seem to know how many we have coming or
maybe maybe even how many we have right now as
(43:29):
they write. Most who study these data centers in South Carolina,
including state officials, point to these commercial services that track
and market data centers to potential customers. There's two of them,
one called Data Centers dot Com, data Center map dot com,
but those two sources have widely different counts and locations
(43:49):
for where these are in our state. One list sixteen
in South Carolina most around Columbia and the Upstate. The
other those has twenty nine, with fifty those in the
Charleston area. Why the big disparity, and well, what others
(44:11):
might be relocating? He nobody seems to know. And again
the big issue here is the amount of energy these
things use and what it means for the rest of us. Wow,
I don't know how. You don't know that. I don't
know either. But bottom line is here the new forecast
(44:36):
for how many more might be coming are seem to
be pretty inaccurate. Nobody seems to know. Here's something we
do know. Even though the FEDS had said they were
going to start cutting back, they're not. The animal research
money continues to flow here into our states, specifically, you know,
down to Monkey Island in Yemissy. They got you're the
(45:01):
one and a half million dollars back in July alone,
So that money keeps flowing into Bunkie Island and we're
not one hundred percent sure what they're doing there or
are we? No, we're not what is this? This latest
grant was uh for kidney research. You know, there's certain
(45:24):
things we don't know. You're right INBC reporting that military
officials in our country are drawing up options to target
drug traffickers inside Venezuela. Well, this would certainly be a
ramping up of hostilities, now, wouldn't I yes, it would.
(45:45):
Now we've been attacking these narco boats out and open water.
We've hit at least three that were allegedly coming out
of Venezuela.
Speaker 3 (45:54):
And then Trump did a victory dance at the United
Nations over it.
Speaker 1 (45:57):
Yeah, but well again, saying that they're drawing up plans
to do it and doing it are two very different things.
So maybe we shouldn't be surprised at least drawing up plans.
But does it go anywhere from there? Washington Post editorial
board very critical of Kamala Harris's new book in her
(46:18):
Return to the Spotlight. They're off ed PC yesterday, arguing
that it was well good it happened this week because
the Democrat Party didn't have time to waste on Harris
in twenty twenty eight. Wow. Yeah, this is not going
well for Kamala.
Speaker 3 (46:39):
And I don't think anybodys nobody's paying a whole lot
of attention to it. But the ones who do, I mean,
it's it's either the word salads that catch your attention
and remind you of just how bad she was, or
the fact that you know, she's still trying to play
cover up over her role in you know, Joe Biden's presidency.
Speaker 1 (46:57):
Yeah, I Kamala Harris was president, and theotiating with you know,
some foreign power, you'd need two translators, one to translate
into their language, another to translate from the word salad
into English so they could translate into whatever.
Speaker 3 (47:11):
But it continues to be big business to have you know,
ignored Joe Biden's deficiencies for years and then all of
a sudden realize that, oh the American people does care.
Speaker 1 (47:22):
Yes, they're all jump on that band, can now? Aren't
they do care? Okay, So while they held out for
a couple of days, are all back on board now.
Both Next Star and Sinclair big TV ownership groups with
a lot of ABC stations of reinstated. Jimmy Kimmel Dolly
Parton post bunning her Vegas residency. She's got health issues,
(47:43):
of course, her husband died just a couple months ago. Right,
And we've talked to you before about the radioactive shrimp.
Well now reports that the FDA has found radioactive contamination
in spices as well. Uh, okay, is this all coming
(48:05):
from the same company somewhere? I mean, if somebody got
it in for us, what spices do we know? I mean,
are all of them? Is there one we should fear
more than another? Well, let's see here. I mean, I
could live without nutmeg if I had to. H they
found in one sample of cloves. I can do about
clothes exported by PT Natural Java spice. They sound a
(48:30):
seasium one seven and that Wow, how does that happen? Yeah,
it's starting to almost sound like it's intentional, doesn't it. Okay,
keep your eyes out on I shrimp on the spices.
Jesiuous hell yea America than for regus for nations is wrong.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
This is Columbia's Morning News with Gary David and Christopher
Thompson on one O three point five FM and five
sixty AM w VOC.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Hey, good morning to you. Welcome into a Monday, back
at it. It's the twenty ninth day of September. Wow,
already October looms sixteen after six, and it's good to
have you here. I'm Gary, that's Christopher.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Good to be here and not be into our twenty
four hour storm coverage.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
The truth. Huh. Can we just take take a moment
and and and offer thanks to Hurricane Umberto for dragging
Amelda out into the Atlantic forest. Thank you? Yeah? How
much that forecast changed over the weekend? Huh wow, very nice.
So yeah, it is a Melda. Now it did get
(01:09):
a name. It is a tropical storm. It is forty
five mile hour maxistain winds. But it's nothing to worry about, really,
I mean really, uh some rain, yeah, flooding rain for us, doubtful,
very matter of fact. Uh, this this thing is going
to take a turn rather abruptly. It's not gonna get
(01:29):
anywhere close to our coastline at all? Uh? Is it?
Is it going to go head right back out into
the mid Atlantic again thanks to Umberto that big What
is that a Cat four now? Was a Cat five
for a bit there? I think it's Cat four now
that's just dragging this thing on out in the end
of nowhere. And I was looking at the National Hurricane
(01:50):
Center and their precipitation forecast now, uh, from from tropical
Storm of Melda, and this is uh they say this
is valid from two o'clock this morning through eight am Wednesday. Okay,
a goat time that on Friday, we thought we're gonna
get a bunch of rain around here at least and
a few gus but be about it. Well, now it's
(02:12):
barely this at least this model is barely showing any
rain for South Carolina at all from this thing. Wow. Yeah,
Now I don't know how accurate that is, but that's
the National Hurricane Center's tropical storm rainfall forecast. And I
mean maybe maybe just touching Charleston, that's about it. Okay,
So we'll take that. We will take it.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
And we got a pretty nasty Facebook message and you
heard Thomas at the top of the hour talking about
the fact that the government governor had declared his state
of emergency. It was like on Friday, Yeah, I mean
that's just that's the mechanics of government. I mean you
can't just crank that up at a moment's notice. So yeah,
you know, for people who to criticize the governor and say, oh,
you know, it's we're barely going to get a drop
(02:54):
of rain. Why is he declaring a state of emergency,
It's it's the process. He's not saying we're in for
an emergency this week. It's it's all about how government
works and how you got to have everybody on standby
just in case.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
I mean, this is this has happened before. Yeah, if
you're a governor or whoever makes the decisions like this
this case the governor, Yeah, which which side? Which side
do you want to be wrong on? You know, I mean,
do you want to not say anything and suddenly we
get a wopped No.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
You didn't ever sit code red or anything. It was
just starting the process.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
As the forecast looked on Friday, we were going to
get something, and certainly the coaster was going to get
a lot more of something. So there's where it is,
all right, So Uh, this is going to be a
big nothing burger for us, and thank you for that.
And are we going to reach October here without any
hurricanes impacting us at all? Looks like we will because
there's nothing else out there right now. Good, Okay, other
(03:47):
news run down, big stories, hot topics here for a
Monday morning. You know, as I was doing the show
Prepace morning, this story aged quickly. I saw it Friday
and almost forgot about it, and none of the local
paper or publications even mentioned it. But R J May
has played guilty. Yeah, that trial was supposed to start
(04:08):
in October. At the last time we heard they were,
you know, the judge had delayed whether or not there'd
be a change in venue, wanted to wait until after
jury's selection was at least attempted before making a decision
on that. Well that'll never happen because Rjay entered guilty
plea to five counts of distributing child pornography.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Well, I don't think that had anything to do with
the change of venue. It was all about evidence and
what was going to get admitted.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Yep, that was what it was. So we'll have more
details on that. A lawyer for the state election Commission
that has been in the news for all the wrong
reasons here as of late pledging Friday that when that
agency comes up with a proposed agreement with the FEDS
as to whether or not we'll give private voter information, that, well,
(04:56):
your confidential voter information will be protected, says the state
Election Commission attorney. Okay, okay, well right, I'm losing I'm
quickly losing interest in that story. I tell you, I
really am. Uh we uh was it Friday? We had
Alan Wilson on, and among other things we talked about,
(05:16):
was this this Pamela evid add that I saw it
one time. I'm not sure it's still actually airing or not.
I've seen that, you know, the Ald Trump ad several
times since Friday, but I haven't seen the ad that
I first saw on Thursday, where they used old video
footage to imply that government master was endorsing Pamela Abbott.
(05:37):
He's not, and word was he was quite upset that
she had done that. Uh. Still, you've you've got more
and more news about that advertisement, which again I haven't
seen it. I saw it one time. I haven't seen
it since. Despite promises to cut back. Apparently the fed
were still pushing a lot of money into places like
Monkey Island, Uh posting Courage A long piece over this,
(06:02):
I mean, more and more money continues to flow into
Alpha Genesis over in the mbassy better known as Monkey
Island Posting Career. Also with this story, here's the headline.
South Carolina is becoming a data center hot a data
center hotspot, but the state doesn't know how many are coming. Okay, well,
(06:23):
we know on the downsides of all these data centers
is the amount of electricity they suck up. It'd be
kind of nice to know what to plan for, right.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Yeah, somebody needs to have a number in mind and say, okay,
this is enough exactly.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
This no longer makes sense. If you're going to keep
bringing them in here, what's your plan to, you know,
allow the rest of us to be able to turn
on the lights or get water out of our faucets.
True as well. More violence over the weekend targeted violence Michigan.
A Mormon church an attack there, leaving at least four
(06:57):
people dead. That number is varying depending on reports. A
lot more injured at church burned down in a suspect
also dead. Thomas Sandford, we have two different stories this
morning about attacks. This one the most heinous and in
both instances, this one and a case up at North
(07:18):
Carolina at a restaurant on the coast there where a
couple of people were shot and killed. In both cases,
these are former Marines that we're instigating this violence. Trump
will meet today with the top four congressional leaders. Says
this a government showdown, This government shut down of this
(07:41):
showdown is looming. I think both words work. Yeah, there's
a report that Soro's back leftist group is behind the
campaign to force this, by the way, pressuring Democrats not
to come to any agreement with Trump over this. Trump
will also be in the House in the room addressing
the nation's top military leaders that wantaco that meeting tomorrow.
(08:02):
We talked about this on Friday, Pete hagg Zeff calling
for all top commanders to come into the room. Trump
will address them as well. A lot of people are
thinking this is a this is the this is the
you know, we're gonna trimp the fat here in the
in the upper rachel On range of the military. But
others still wondering does this mean something else? Okay, Eric
(08:24):
Adams dropping out of the New York City mayoral race.
This has been talked about for a bit now. He
wasn't faring We all the polls, the current mayor of
New York City. He was buying everybody, Yeah, he was,
And there was talking about the Trump administration trying to
find a place for him if he would get out.
So he has dropped out of that race. He dropped
out yesterday. He's just gonna make any difference or not.
I mean, this communist who's got the lead, has got
(08:47):
a big lead. I think the last time I saw you,
like a twenty point lead. Did Montamie over? And who's
the third what's his name? The freedom Fighter? Yeah, Curtis Yah, Yeah, yeah,
thank you? Yes, And well it's uh, it's it's sufficially over. Now.
Kimmela's back on all the ABC affiliates, says both Sinclair
(09:07):
and Nexttar decided to put his show back on. I
figured it was going to happen. It was a matter
of time, and I think it's going to happen that quick.
But there it is. All right, friends. We'll be talking
about that and more coming up today on this the
Monday morning edition of Columbia's Morning News. Always good to
have you on board. Keeping the commitment. I love you
guyslable twenty four to seven. Listen to you every day
half for years.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
One O three point five FM and five sixty am
w VOC. This is Columbia's Morning News with Gary David
and Christopher Thompson on one O three point five FM
and five sixty am w VOC.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Time now six forty two. Good morning. It's Monday, September
twenty ninth. And once again, Amelda is not going to
bring much of much maybe some impat you know, we've
we've got a seventy percent chance of rain today, for example,
but right now the radar is not showing anything anywhere
close to us, and uh wind speeds you know, not much,
(10:05):
uh seven or ten miles an now maybe August to
twenty two. That's gonna be about it. So this thing
is getting drug off into the Atlantic by a hurricane Umberto,
and that's a that's a good thing. So, uh, I mean,
there there's a there is a chance we could go
through the day to day and really not see you
know it be any rain. If we get it, probably
later on the day and the end of the night,
(10:26):
if we get it at all. Okay, no complaints there
all right so of the news. UH Trump over the
weekend on his truth social platform saying that he would
he was ordering UH Pete Hagsath to use the military
to protect ICE facilities in Portland, Oregon, which he said,
(10:51):
We're under siege from attack by UH by antimum, antiva,
whichever you prefer. I'm also authorizing full force if necessary,
which means that well, that would would be referring to
troops authority to use weapons. We know things are not
good important. They haven't been for a long, long, long,
(11:13):
long time. And this after this attack on the ice
facility in Dallas last week, it continues to ramp up.
We have seen well broad View, Illinois a couple of
days ago, protest outside the fence line at the ice
(11:37):
facility and protesters shouting arrest ice, shoot ice, shoot the blankers.
Let's pause for a moment consider this. These are law
(12:00):
enforcement officers carrying out their duties as assigned by the
federal government, and you have protesters shouting shoot ice, shoot ice.
This is just days after this this Dallas shooting. There
were some arrest made, thankfully this continues. As a matter
(12:27):
of fact, at least one rioter who was arrested was
was carrying a firearm outside the science facility. Where do
they get this from? Do you think, huh these protesters
feel it's a okay again, here we are in America
(12:54):
with people shouting take ice out of the equation for
a second. These are protesters that are that are they're chanting,
encouraging be shooting and killing of another human being. Forget
that they're rice agents for a second. Oh oh no,
I guess you can't, can you, Because in the minds
(13:15):
of these individuals, because they're ice agents, they are I
W don't know what they're certainly Nazis, right, they're Gestapo,
they're subhuman, they're evil, they're monsters, you name it. So
it's okay, shoot them, okay? And where do they get
(13:37):
this from? Well, they feel pretty emboltant, don't they, Because
you know, you're in a situation where maybe not those
exact words, but certainly it's being implied by by by
leftist leaders out there that this is this is something
we should be doing right now. Now. I'm not dumb
(14:07):
enough to think that there are some deranged individuals out
there who would be saying this anyway. Well, you got
a crowd of about two hundred people that are chanting
at man, that is some massive group think right there
going on in a very bad way. So we saw
that in Broadview, Illinois a couple of days ago. And again,
(14:28):
where are they getting it from? Well, over and over
again we've been we've been told by the Democrat leaders,
maybe not to shoot ice, but certainly to get up
in their face, getting their grill, to obstruct them when
they were possible, to keep them from doing their jobs,
to dos them, to set up apps and sites that
(14:50):
tell you tell people where they are. What did what
did you think was going to happen? By the way,
on the lighter side of things, I suppose you can
call it this Upton, Massachusetts. You may have seen the video.
It's just this west of Boston. A woman who was
upset that an immigrant was being arrested, protesting, yelling at
(15:16):
agents as they made this arrest. Well, she pulled her
car over and got out to harass the ICE agents
for doing their job, and forgot to put her car
in park. She was so upset, needless to say, it
started a roll and it rolled right into a lake
(15:39):
and sunk karma car. Mu Yes, I'm sure the ICE
agents got a good chuckle out of that one. Huh,
she was not in the car, okay, but that was
taking it another level. She was not in the car,
Remember she was outside the car. Are hollering insult to
(16:02):
the ice agents doing their job when her car rolled
into the lake and sunk. I don't know does insurance
cover that? You know, some enterprising adjust out there might
find a way to not pay for that one.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
You're listening to Columbia's Morning News on one oh three
point five FM on five sixty AM WVOC. Once again,
here's Gary David and Christopher Thomas seven fifteen.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Good morning, tell you Monday, September the twenty ninth, and
the story we thought we'd be talking about all morning long,
we're really not. But Melda, it is now tropical storm.
It's that that system has got its name, that generated
so much concern into last week about what it could
bring to us. Now looks like it won't bring much anything.
No complaining here. There's a good chance we get rained today,
(16:52):
but maybe later on today if then. I don't know.
I mentioned earlier I looked at the National Hurricane Center
and there outlook for precipitation from this tropical system between
now and Wednesday, shows almost none for us here in
the Midlands, and as a matter of fact, a lot
of the coastal areas maybe not be getting any either,
(17:13):
if that's accurate. So yeah, the other, the big, the
big storm umberto the Cat four, is dragging this thing
back out to the Atlantics or our run of good
luck continues this hurricane season. Let's hope it continues through
October as well. Not out of the not out of
(17:34):
the ordinary for us to get an October hurricane, of course.
So but for this one, wind gusts potentially twenty maybe
twenty five miles an hour. That's gusts and a chance
of rain. That's gonna be about it for us. Beautiful,
all right. So the word came down Friday that R. J.
(17:55):
May has changed his tune and is entered again guilty
plea to five counts of distributing child porn. In exchange
for that, the FEDS have agreed to dismiss the remaining
five counts of the original indictment.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Okay, so it doesn't each count Carrie what twenty years
it could?
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Yes, guidance would call for him to serve twenty years
behind bars, although yes, he could face twenty years on
each count, and maybe that's what he was thinking here. Okay, Well,
I don't know. If you face twenty years on each count,
that's one hundred years. Yeah, so you're not getting out regardless. Yeah,
I'll go for a hundred years instead of two hundred. Yeah.
I don't know. Of course, again, even if he were
(18:42):
to get twenty years on each count, one hundred years.
We've seen this story before. Suddenly somebody's out one of
these days. Although he's not one hundred years. I don't know.
He's not a lawyer.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
I don't know that he knows the mechanics of making
any kind of a deal with the federal government. And
I don't know if the government was willing to make
a deal with him. I guess we'll find out.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Yeah, well, they apparently have. The Feds have agreed to
this deal for me.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
I'm talking about it the guidance as far as what
they'll recommend to the judge as far as yeah, and
will it be twenty years for each count?
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Now, the statutory penalty for each count is five to
twenty years in prison.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
So the government can stand up and say, you know
your honor based on the fact that the you know
the accused is to you know, at least cooperating. We're
willing to suggest five instead of twenty. So now the
judge doesn't have to listen.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
But no, but now if you're talking five years on
five counts, you're talking twenty five years and you know,
good behavior and all that, and you know, yeah, that's
a whole different story. So this must be what R. J.
May was looking at. And hey, you know, if I
agree to plead guilty, then they'll go light on me
on the sentencing. They'll go the five, the twenty on
each count and YadA, YadA, YadA. Well we'll see, time
(20:04):
will tell. He's also agreed to admit to a polygraph
exam on the issue of assets if the Fed's determine
it necessary, and that could draw some attention to well,
his financial disclosure. So who knows what all he'll be
asked under a polygraph.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
This could end up drying attention to the freedom for
the Freedom Caucus exactly.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
This could cause a little consternation for the Freedom Caucus here. Now,
remember there was more to this story, but because it
didn't happen here, there was nothing the FEDS could do
about it. But recall the allegations that he had traveled
to was at Argentina somewhere in South America to have
(20:50):
sex with an underaged individual, remember that part of the story.
But again, because that didn't happen here in this country,
the FEDS couldn't do anything about that. But you know,
although he's not being tried for that, that will probably
play in I we're thinking it was Columbia. It was Columbia, Okay, yeah,
(21:14):
remind me, I forgot the details of that. Was it
one trip or was it multiple trips?
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Prosecutors say they investigated whether he used a fake name
to travel there three times?
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Three times? Yeah, okay, And again, well he was in
charged with that. He would have been tried on that
here in this country there you know that, Hey, judges
are human beings, too, right, and that's you know, it'll
probably be somewhere in the back of a judge's mind
when they determine whether or not what the sentencing should
be on this. Well, we were just days away from
(21:49):
his trial starting. Remember the news last week was again
he wanted to change a venue, but the judge was
putting that off. They were going to wait until the
judge was until they started the jury selection process and
to see if maybe there were it's gonna be hard
to pick a jury here in Columbia to hear this
case based on the pre trial publicity. Not to worry
(22:09):
about that.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Now, his only chance was if the judge suppressed the
evidence right. And you have to wonder if the Feds
came forward and said, look, you're you're not gonna win that.
And if this thing starts, it doesn't end, it doesn't
end well for you.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Oh yeah, you fight this. I'm sure they told him
that you fight this. Then you know we're going we're
going ten counts and we're going to push for the
maximum of.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Free twenty years on every count. Yeah, you'll never see
the light of day again. Ever, I mean, they might
have been, they might have played it again. It's the
fact that you're not a lawyer, that you don't know
the way that court process works.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
That didn't help. Yeah, you wonder if this would be
any different. And again, even with this plea deal, with
this guilty plea, if he might not have gotten a
better deal had he actually used people who are actual
attorneys to negotiate it.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
Well, we don't want it to sound as if we're
rooting for r Jmay But well, no, yeah, it's it's
a disgusting case regardless, and he's going to go away
for a while.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
And the type of case that we're hearing him way
way too much about these days. Nothing new to out
of Charleston, by the way on that former magistrate to Guysnell.
But that one is if you can, if you can
find whether it's worse than this one, that's the one
I think it was.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
I'm trying to remember if it was Bacari Sellers maybe
on social media who brought up a good point. He said,
you know, at one point, do you not look at
every single case he's ruled on?
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Sure all that magistrate?
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Yeah, in a new light and yeah, yeah, I mean
this guy's a an accused criminal.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Of the of the of the worst of the worst kind.
Yeah yeah. And if you're not familiar with that story, uh,
I'm not going to repeat it here.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
You never know when the news will break, but leave
us on and you will. I think we want to
see more details right now. One O three point five
FM and five sixty AM dou w voc This is
Columbia's Morning News with Gary David and Christopher Thompson. On
one O three point five FM and five sixty AM
(24:30):
w VOC.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
There's seven forty Good morning, Good to have you along.
From Monday, September twenty ninth. Again a reminder that Amelda
is gonna gotta really do much anything for us. Doesn't
look like and so as I say that, we'll get
dumped on here. But the picture tends to be right
now that you know, some rain from this thing, but
kind of like this past weekend, all that rain we're
supposed to get, I'm not sure where that that went,
(24:54):
but anyway, we got some, we got some. But Amelda
is certainly not a threat to us by any stretch
of the imagination. As Umberto continues to drag this thing
for hadn't started yet, that turn hadn't started yet, but
it's gone on long before it could potentially impact us.
Even the coastal areas. They're starting to scale back now
on preparations there too, after being you know, majorly concerned
(25:15):
about what that thing could do. So that's the good
news there this morning. All right, So New York City
developments in the mayoral race there again, typically wouldn't spend
a whole lot of time thinking about the mayor's race
in New York City. You know it used to be well,
you knew, unless your name is Rudy Giuliani, you know
you're going to like a Democrat mayor more than likely recently.
(25:38):
But this time they could elect a communist. We don't
call him a socialist, dude's a communist. Man. Eric Adams,
the current mayor, has dropped out of that race. I
dropped out yesterday. Election Day is in five weeks, saying
(25:58):
he just wouldn't able to raise the funds for a
serious campaign. So this leaves a three way race. Right,
You've got the communist Mam Donnie, You've got the former
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, and you have Curtis lava
(26:18):
As the Republican who never stood a chance of this race.
Does that?
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Does he leave because he's got issues and you know,
he's got legal problems and everything else and saw no chance.
Where Does he leave because he sees this as the
best best path for Cuomo to have a chance against Mandannie.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
I'm thinking it's number two. Yeah, you know, And there
was there was talk here in the in the last
month or so that you know, the Trump administration might
be looking to, you know, find something for Eric Adams
to do trying to get him out of that race,
try to keep a Communist from being elected the mayor
of New York. But uh man, I mean Mandanmi. I
(26:59):
guess what last week? I saw his lead in that
race was like twenty points. It's really hard to fathom. Now,
New York says a whole different place. I get it.
You talk about a melting pot. Boy, that's that's one
(27:19):
right there. But even at that, the idea that New
York City is going to elect a communists unless something
weird happens here, that's where it's going here. So I
don't know how, you know, really, based on the polling,
(27:41):
how Cuomo can pull this one out. Got a better
chance with Adams on the race. Yeah, But anyway, so
that's that.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
And then you've got all these candidates who are going
to start campaigning for president, who are going to have
to decide how they I mean, they've been asked about
Mum Donnie every time they go on to talk show,
and it's always, well, he's the candidate, Well he's he's
the guy that New York could Democrats wanted. You know,
nobody's willing to go beyond that. But they're going to
have to state their true feelings about him at some
(28:09):
point and how they feel about you know, one of
the biggest cities in America being led by a Democrat socialist.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
And this is going to encourage more of the of
his ilk to try to seek higher office, maybe even
the highest office.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
Well, it certainly encourages that that way over on that
side of the party to do whatever they do. I mean,
I wouldn't have think they would have. I would have
thought they would have felt encouraged before. But now this,
this gives them. Okay, all right, maybe we can have
a bigger say in the party.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Now. What happens in New York City doesn't translate too
many other places in this country.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
No, that's the good news there, but it is. I mean,
it's the centerpiece.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Mm hm yeah. You know. I there's a there's a
part of me that says, hey, go ahead and do this.
I'm fascinating to see how this turns out if if
this guy tries to implement the policies he's talking about
on the campaign trail anyway.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
Well, I mean, if you're Gavin Newsom, for example, how
do you campaign there in a couple of years and
you know, snub the mayor, act as if you don't
know who the mayor is.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Yeah, I don't know. I guess it's the possibility that
by the time that rolls around, that that mayor may
be so unpopular that it won't matter. Yeah. You know again,
you start driving businesses out of business. You start to
you know, the people that are being tax the most,
contributing the most to the tack base. He was saying,
(29:44):
never mind, we're out of here speaking of communists. Uh.
Her name is uh, or was uh Joanne Cheesemard. She
went by Asada Shakur. This is a This goes back
(30:07):
to the to nineteen seventy seven, when she was convicted
of first degree murder for shooting and killing a New
Jersey State trooper during a routine and a traffic stop
on the Jersey Turnpike. She was sentenced to life in prison.
Two years later, with some help, she broke out and
(30:27):
fled to Cuba, and ever since our government has tried
to get her back. Well, she died at the age
of seventy seven last week, still in Cuba. And now
you've got the Chicago Well, there's a lot of these,
you know, left extremist organizations are doing this, but the
(30:49):
Chicago Teachers Union, okay, honoring her as a revolutionary fighter,
their official ex account posting rest and power, rest in peace.
Asada Shakur called her a revered elder of black liberation
and quoted her saying, it's our duty to fight for
(31:11):
our freedom. It's our duty to win. Blah blah blah
blah blah. Okay, this is the Chicago Teachers' Union now
memorializing and celebrating a woman who was sentenced to life
in prison for murdering a cop. How far have we
strayed away from what this country was built on? Man, Now,
(31:36):
this could be any other organization, but this is the
Teachers Union in Chicago. Again, here we go the people
whose education were entrusting for our kids, and they're celebrating
not just a communist but somebody who shot and murdered
(31:59):
a cop. Wow, there's the there's a chunk of this
country that is so far, so far off base that
they'll they'll never be rained in again.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
It's not gonna happen. Starting to say the quiet part
out loud, yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
Uh huh uh huh. And they're okay with it. They
are a okay with it. Oh and the what was it?
Des Moines, Iowa? Did you see this one? Des Moines,
Iowa ice arresting a Guyanese national. At a time of
the rest, they found a loaded handgun on him, a
fixed blade hunting knife, three grand in cash. Ian Andre Roberts,
(32:39):
who were his day job, the superintendent of the Des
Moines Public school System. Yeah, the superintendent. There you go
at our schools again. Huh.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
You're listening to Columbia's morning news on one oh three
point five FM on five sixty. Yeah, I'm doubvo seed
once again. Here's Gary David and Christopher Thompson.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Yeah, it's coming up on sixteen after eight. It's Monday,
September twenty ninth, and Thankfullyamelda is not a big story
round here today. We'll just leave it at that. I'm
Gary David. That is Christopher Thompson right over there. So
I didn't see any of it over the weekend. I
know you were busy on Saturday with our best game
cut coverage, but you catch much of the Ryder Cup.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
Oh yeah, I mean I tried. Yeah, I mean I
saw a good bit Friday, okay, and then I saw
some yesterday. I'd given up by yesterday. I didn't realize
that the Americans were going to stage a massive comeback.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
They did give it their best, good old USA try. Yeah,
just waited too late, too big a hole to begin with.
But the behavior is getting a lot of attention. Yeah,
so much for the gentleman's game. I guess this.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
You know, this happens every couple of years, but you
put a Ryder Cup in New York, it escalated to
an entirely different and very uncomfortable level.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
Yeah, this is why you don't play the Ryder Cup
in Philadelphia by the way there. Yeah, but I guess
it's just I guess it's just a it's a reflection
of society where we've gone these days, right, I mean,
this is this is what it is.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
And it's partly that and partly as Rory McElroy pointed out,
the fact that the first two days, Americans had nothing
to cheer for, so, I mean, they were awful. So
the only thing that American fans could do was root
against Europe.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Yeah, okay, root against him is fine, but I mean
it's what got said. And I mean golf is different
from the other sport because of the proximity to the players. Yeah,
you're right there. You could reach out and well, you
could reach out. You know what I'm saying. You gotta
wonder if that sort of behavior might one day lead
to something we don't want to see. Anyway. Yeah, I
(34:49):
didn't get you any of it, but I heard all
about it, more about the behavior than the golf itself. Really,
it was unfortunate. Yeah, Okay, today the President will meet
with top congressionally. This is the plan to meet today.
The deadline to do it or shut it down is
well tomorrow. So this one again, this is one of
(35:15):
these things that the boy crying wolf. Way too many
times we start not even paying attention to these looming
government shutdowns, these these budget battles. It's time and time
again we go through this. Now. The difference in this
one is the administration is not preparing just for furloughs,
but the layoffs if this happens. Now that was supposed
to have been meeting what last week I got called off.
(35:37):
But as usual, the two sides are very far apart
on this. What's new? I mean, there's really no new
news to this point in this. The new news will
be if, in fact, the government does shut down and
if in fact layoffs do ensue, that will make it
a lot different.
Speaker 3 (35:52):
Even more important than these talks. I have a feeling
both sides are pulling right now.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Oh don't you know? Yeah? All right? Who is going
to be hurt worse politically by a shutdown? There are
reports that this group Indivisible. You've heard of them before, right,
We've been hear about them for a long time. Matter
of fact, they were the group behind the recent No
King's protests. Their reports now that they are really lobbying hard,
(36:24):
putting pressure on Senate Democrats not to come to any
kind of a bipartisan solution with the GOP. Remember who
this group is? A group that has gotten close to
eight million dollars in grants over the past eight years
from the George Soros Open Society Foundation. Funning how that
(36:49):
name always pops up, doesn't it. Well? Of course, the
Trump administration has been making overtures about investigating the Soros
Foundation for their role in bank rolling extremist left wing groups,
and the President tomorrow will now we get in reports
(37:11):
we'll speak to this meeting of top generals and admirals
at Quantico. This is the story that popped up last
week that Pete Haggseth has summoned what some eight hundred
generals and admirals from across the globe to come to
Virginia for a get together. I mean, when I don't
(37:35):
know about you. When I first heard this, I thought,
wait a minute, are we getting ready to embark up
on something that we don't know about? Here? You're gonna
bring all the generals and admirals into one room together.
I mean, that's pretty much unheard of. And then't there
was talk that well, you know, because Hegxeth himself has
said in the past he wants to trim the ranks
at the top and it top heavy. We got way
more generals and admirals, way more than we had, say
(37:57):
in World War Two. Put more of an emphasis on
the g I s and not the generals. That's Hexas's idea. Here.
Now reports that that Trump himself will speak of this
meeting tomorrow. Yeah, I don't know all that's going to
be talked about, but we'll hedge roll tomorrow. Will there
be pink slips issued as they walk out that door, Well,
(38:19):
we'll find out tomorrow. I guess. Apparently Trump participating in
this was not part of the original plan, but he
did decide that he wanted to be there. So, hm,
what exactly is this one all about? We're uh, we're
fixing to find out. We didn't talk to any link
(38:46):
this morning about what happened in Michigan yesterday, and we
don't have the whole story quite yet. They're still sifting
through what's left of that Mormon church in Grand Block Township.
And here we go, a man said to be a
(39:06):
former marine decorated marine drove into a drove his truck
into this church, started firing at churchgoers. Four maybe five dead,
others quite possibly because well he also apparently used some
sort of an accelerant that wind up up burning the
(39:28):
church just about to the ground. And there are still
people that are unaccounted for. I don't know if you
noticed this when you go to church or not. I
didn't really notice it yesterday, but I have noticed in
the past, and it is disconcerting but unfortunately necessary these
days to if you look around, you'll be able to
(39:49):
spot them, especially in bigger churches. There are people there
that are keeping an eye on other people, like schools.
If it's a sad state of affairs where you go
to church on a Sunday morning, and you realize, Okay,
that guy's got an AIRPCE in, and so does that
guy over there. But it's where we are. And there
(40:12):
were two shootings. There was two, Yeah, the one up
in North Carolina. A guy pulls up in a boat
to an ocean side restaurant. Nobody expects that, uh huh.
Three dead there, at least eight injured there. And again
a case where cops say the shooter is again a
former marine claims to be a veteran with PTSD. Yeah, yeah,
(40:34):
that sounds like a much different story right there. And
again one that unfortunately is affecting way too many of
our veterans. And now in this case somebody else at
least three other people and families who died in that.
(40:54):
I don't know. Is there anything shocking left out there
these days?
Speaker 2 (40:58):
The conversation begins here, This the society problem.
Speaker 1 (41:02):
This is the way people act nowadays. They don't think
they've just ad one O.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
Three point five FM, five sixty AM w VOC. This
is Columbia's Morning News with Gary David and Christopher Thompson
on one O three point five FM and five sixty
am w VOC.
Speaker 1 (41:21):
Final thoughts at eight forty two on a Monday morning.
First up again, and I just double check this. Uh,
do we even get a rain out of Amelda at all?
Mentioned earlier? This morning, I looked at the National Hurricane Center.
One of the mini models they put out of the
products they offer is the rainfall rain forecast. That's just
(41:41):
a potential from their weather prediction center. Okay, I looked
at it this morning early. It showed just maybe Charleston
getting a little bit of rain out of this thing.
And their update at the latest update now doesn't even
show rain coming on shore. Huh. Predictions are the big
(42:05):
one out there, and Berto is going to really drag
this thing way way away from our coastline. It's not
even to get close to our coastline. But they thought
that at least the coastal areas we get a lot
of rain and you know, some high winds from it.
But that's looking less and less likely with every run here.
It looks like, at least from the National Hurricane Center's perspective.
Nice Okay, I'm beginning to thing more and more like
(42:29):
we might not even see a drop of rain out
of this sucker. Okay, We've got a.
Speaker 3 (42:34):
Good bid on Friday and some on Saturday. But I
think we could probably still use a bit more, just
we don't want to see tropical storms.
Speaker 1 (42:43):
It seemed like we got a lot of the house,
but it must have been while we were asleep, you know,
because anyway, Okay, final thoughts here the posting Courier with
this disturbing story. We know we've become a destination in
our state for these big data centers, and we know
what that brings along with it. It sucks up electricity,
(43:05):
It sucks up groundwater. And this is one of our
problems with the you know, having enough electricity to go
around these days, is these data centers the massive amounts
of energy they use. But the story is this, we
don't seem to know how many we have coming or
maybe maybe even how many we have right now as
(43:29):
they write. Most who study these data centers in South Carolina,
including state officials, point to these commercial services that track
and market data centers to potential customers. There's two of them,
one called Data Centers dot Com, data Center map dot com,
but those two sources have widely different counts and locations
(43:49):
for where these are in our state. One list sixteen
in South Carolina most around Columbia and the Upstate. The
other those has twenty nine, with fifty those in the
Charleston area. Why the big disparity, and well, what others
(44:11):
might be relocating? He nobody seems to know. And again
the big issue here is the amount of energy these
things use and what it means for the rest of us. Wow,
I don't know how. You don't know that. I don't
know either. But bottom line is here the new forecast
(44:36):
for how many more might be coming are seem to
be pretty inaccurate. Nobody seems to know. Here's something we
do know. Even though the FEDS had said they were
going to start cutting back, they're not. The animal research
money continues to flow here into our states, specifically, you know,
down to Monkey Island in Yemissy. They got you're the
(45:01):
one and a half million dollars back in July alone,
So that money keeps flowing into Bunkie Island and we're
not one hundred percent sure what they're doing there or
are we? No, we're not what is this? This latest
grant was uh for kidney research. You know, there's certain
(45:24):
things we don't know. You're right INBC reporting that military
officials in our country are drawing up options to target
drug traffickers inside Venezuela. Well, this would certainly be a
ramping up of hostilities, now, wouldn't I yes, it would.
(45:45):
Now we've been attacking these narco boats out and open water.
We've hit at least three that were allegedly coming out
of Venezuela.
Speaker 3 (45:54):
And then Trump did a victory dance at the United
Nations over it.
Speaker 1 (45:57):
Yeah, but well again, saying that they're drawing up plans
to do it and doing it are two very different things.
So maybe we shouldn't be surprised at least drawing up plans.
But does it go anywhere from there? Washington Post editorial
board very critical of Kamala Harris's new book in her
(46:18):
Return to the Spotlight. They're off ed PC yesterday, arguing
that it was well good it happened this week because
the Democrat Party didn't have time to waste on Harris
in twenty twenty eight. Wow. Yeah, this is not going
well for Kamala.
Speaker 3 (46:39):
And I don't think anybodys nobody's paying a whole lot
of attention to it. But the ones who do, I mean,
it's it's either the word salads that catch your attention
and remind you of just how bad she was, or
the fact that you know, she's still trying to play
cover up over her role in you know, Joe Biden's presidency.
Speaker 1 (46:57):
Yeah, I Kamala Harris was president, and theotiating with you know,
some foreign power, you'd need two translators, one to translate
into their language, another to translate from the word salad
into English so they could translate into whatever.
Speaker 3 (47:11):
But it continues to be big business to have you know,
ignored Joe Biden's deficiencies for years and then all of
a sudden realize that, oh the American people does care.
Speaker 1 (47:22):
Yes, they're all jump on that band, can now? Aren't
they do care? Okay, So while they held out for
a couple of days, are all back on board now.
Both Next Star and Sinclair big TV ownership groups with
a lot of ABC stations of reinstated. Jimmy Kimmel Dolly
Parton post bunning her Vegas residency. She's got health issues,
(47:43):
of course, her husband died just a couple months ago. Right,
And we've talked to you before about the radioactive shrimp.
Well now reports that the FDA has found radioactive contamination
in spices as well. Uh, okay, is this all coming
(48:05):
from the same company somewhere? I mean, if somebody got
it in for us, what spices do we know? I mean,
are all of them? Is there one we should fear
more than another? Well, let's see here. I mean, I
could live without nutmeg if I had to. H they
found in one sample of cloves. I can do about
clothes exported by PT Natural Java spice. They sound a
(48:30):
seasium one seven and that Wow, how does that happen? Yeah,
it's starting to almost sound like it's intentional, doesn't it. Okay,
keep your eyes out on I shrimp on the spices.
