This is Charleston's Morning News with Kelly and Blaze.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Donald Trump's surprising reaction to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey
getting engaged. She was nice about it. He said they're
both good people, and he congratulated them, so he kind
of changed his tune. I'm curious this morning what your
thoughts are in the engagement here this morning. I can't believe.
I told Blaize this in the break. I can't believe
(00:29):
the text messages that I got from people that I
would not have expected, saying hey, did you hear the news?
I mean from guys like some men.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Well, they were like did you hear the news? Or
were they like you know?
Speaker 4 (00:40):
Ugh?
Speaker 2 (00:41):
It was not at least you never know about text
messages when it comes to tone, but I think the
tone was more like, oh you know, hey, did you
hear you know? It wasn't an absolute negative. I'll say
this one though, with our talkback, pretty clear here.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
I could give.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
If Taylor and Travis got engaged.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
I don't care. They're both liberals, they're both for the shot,
they both stood for Biden, and they wouldn't give me
or do the time of day. And honestly, I think
this is.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
All a liberal distraction to keep you from hearing all
the good that Trump has been doing.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
I do not disagree with her, well, I don't disagree
with her at all, except for maybe that last part.
I don't think they got engaged to kind of knock
Trump out of the headlines. But but the media, the
movie Finish, the media will use it that way certainly.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Oh yeah, and you know what to your point of
wanting to stick your finger down your throat, because we're
going to get every detail of every little thing. I mean,
I just looked up over my shoulder here in CBS
this morning. Left leaning Gail King and crew are oh
getting a you know, getting a glimpse at her rock.
You know, I don't care.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
I mean, I don't know. I guess the Swifties care,
But does anybody else really care? And we got to
hear all this cute see stuff. You know. They announced
it by saying the English teacher and the Jim te
Cherer are getting married. Oh my god, I like, I like.
I don't know why it has such an effect on me,
but it makes me want to puke.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Well, honestly, reading some of the courtship stories made me
want a Puke where Travis Kelsey was talking about, Oh, well,
you know, I knew exactly how to court her and
what to do because her songs told me exactly what
she wanted.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I'm like, what, Yeah, what kind of I guess I
can say that word on the radio. Well, I better not.
I don't have an abundance of caution, len and doubt
leave it out. But you know, starts with CU ends
with c K. Yeah, if you have to go listen
to your girlfriend's songs to see how you have to
deal with her, I mean, oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
What's really gonna I just wonder how many people going
to be turned off by this versus ones that are
leaning in because you know that there's going to be
a lot of money spent. They're gonna treat this and
the propaganda to press like a royal wedding.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Of course they are. And I was saying this earlier,
Not only do we have to go through the engagement now,
and I don't believe that they released a wedding date.
Hopefully it's not like two years in the future. Oh
my god, we're gonna have to put up with that,
and then we're gonna have to put up with the
wedding pictures.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Baby, then we're gonna have baby, and.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
We're gonna hear you know, and already are there cute
sea stuff the English teacher and the gym teacher getting married.
TNT boom for Travis and Taylor.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Anyway, congratulations, I guess yeah, congratulations you too. That's so wonderful.
I'm so excited. Welcome in. We're digging into today's stop
stories just to head your Carolina sports whoa sports report?
Speaker 3 (03:44):
You? Okay in there?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
New York City officials and the governor are telling President
Trump to stay away as he threatens to ramp up
National Guard deployments to more Democrat led the cities. Governor
Kathy Hochel says she's spoken to him directly, telling him
that she can give him all the data he needs
to show that violent crime is down. Mayor Eric Adams
is saying the same thing, while Police Commissioner Jessica Tish
(04:11):
told Attorney General Pam Bondi that New York City does
not need the extra help. In Illinois, Democratic Governor JB.
Pritzker says there is no reason to send troops to
the city to fight crime, calling the move unconstitutional and Unamerican.
The governor also urged residents to protest peacefully if troops
are deployed. Mayor Brandon Johnson is against sending in the Guard,
(04:35):
but asked the Trump administration to provide more funding for
violence prevention. Don't send the guard, just send more money.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
To us for us to fail our citizen.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Rew.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
We've got a great talk back on this warning.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
This is Pete in South Carolina. Democrats warning President Trump
to stay out of their cities is like my teenager
warning me to stay out of their room or ELPs.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
I mean, come on, stay out of our cities. My
kid tells me to stay out of his room. I'm
in his room.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Amen, brother, that's the talk back feature on the iHeart
app round radio microphone. You can hit it. You got
about thirty seconds to drop your thoughts as you had
inbound this morning. He's right. And the idea that they're
telling Trump to, you know, give us more money, not happening.
It's gonna be quite.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
The office find that hilarious.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
No, we just need more money. We don't need the
extra help on the ground here, you know, keep the
National Guard out, but send us more money, please, and
we can document. In the case of New York anyway,
the Governor Kathy Hokel saying we have data to back
us up that crime is down. Well, you know, here's
(05:51):
the most egregious cities accused of manipulating the data. New
York City, the New York Police departm has a documented
history of misreporting crime statistics. In one instance, the states
all the way back to twenty ten. An investigation found
that police precincts underreported more than two thy eight hundred
(06:12):
serious crimes over a five year period to cook the books.
Now this is according to media reports, So this isn't
like necessarily fixed. This doesn't mean that they're not doing
this anymore. This just means that they've been doing this
is far back, at least until twenty ten, and you
can imagine even further back than that. In Chicago, police
(06:33):
have faced accusations of deliberately undercounting murders to improve public
perception of safety. In one prominent incident, a police commander
was accused of improperly changing murder classifications. And the other
cities that made like the top of the list on
manipulating crime data Milwaukee, New Orleans, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, in
(06:58):
addition to New York City and Chicago, who you just
heard from can supply the data showing that crime's down.
We also heard that, you know, from the Democrats in Washington,
d C.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Yep, we heard it from Trump from the Oval Office
saying they're readdefining what crimes are. We're done with this nonsense.
It's time to bring and restore law and order, and
it's time for the people of these cities who have
been under siege against this horrific generational crime. Frankly, look
how long Democrats have been serving in these cities. First
of all, you need to stop voting this way. Beyond that,
(07:33):
you need to stand up now, like we're hearing in
the residence in DC proper saying thank God for this.
And they're Democrat leaning people who have said, you know,
we crime, and even Trump said this crime shouldn't be partisan.
And the idea that they're making it so is just
more continued stepping out a rate for Democrats, Frankly, and
(07:54):
you know, sadly genius for Trump, but horrible in the
end for the people who were suffering from this crime.
They need to be standing up, stepping up and being
a whole lot louder than these feckless, reckless leaders who
are just infuriating to me. I mean, I don't know
how people live in their cities and vote for them.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Frankly, well, how dare Trump try to solve this problem?
He should have done the responsible thing like past presidents
and just send more money.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
I smell some bacon and pig jokes coming on.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Yeah, cue the ham and bacon jokes. Doctors in China
say they transplanted a genetically modified pig lung into a
brain dead man, where it functioned for nine days. The
man's body eventually started to reject the lung. It's believed
to be the first pig lung transplant, and doctors hope
it may one day be an option for people who
(08:43):
need organs. The findings were published Monday in the journal
Nature Medicine.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
No word on side effects, including snorting, sorry.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Rolling around in the mud, set.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Rooting, growing a curly tale.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
But well, I mean, it's long been understood that pigs
are actually closest to us genetically from the animal world.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Oh yeah, there's all kinds of valves that come from,
whether it's bovine or pigs that gosh, my mom has
a metro prolapse and some people call athlete's heart. And
for years that was something she was researching on whether
to have surgery and whether to do the mechanical version
(09:31):
of this or to actually do the animal version of it.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
So what did she do?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
She didn't ever repair it. She still lives to this day,
thank God, please bless her.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Well, maybe she should look into this. Well, it's not
ready yet. So what they're doing is they genetically modified
this long to make it less likely that your body
would reject it. And it lasted for nine days, but
then eventually the man's body started to reject the the long.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Yeah, at the time, she didn't want to feel like
a guinea pig. That's why she sort of just let
it go. But yeah, nine days, that's not long enough.
If you're right, it's not ready. But interesting, Well, no.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
But it's a breakthrough because you know, they got it
to last that long. Now, maybe they can fine tune
it and eventually it will bring relief to people who
need organs. But you know my understanding of it, and
I'm no doctor, I probably didn't have to even give
that disclaimer. You know that when you do transplants and
(10:35):
things like that the biggest problem is your body rejecting it,
and then you have to take all of these drugs
and it really messes up, you know, it inhibits your
lifestyle and even your health, taking all of these drugs
just to prevent your body from rejecting what was transplanted
into it. So if they can overcome that obstacle, then
(10:57):
there can be some real breakthroughs in saving lives of
people who need organs. So it's a good first baby
step anyway. A WWE champion is facing backlash from Ozzy
Osbourne's daughter over comments she made during a show. Kelly
Osbourne took issue with Women's Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch bringing
(11:20):
up her father during Monday's episode of Raw in Birmingham, England.
Lynch said the only good thing to come from Birmingham
died a month ago and she would die too if
she lived there. In an Instagram story post, Kelly called
Lynch a dirtbag and added shame on the WWE for
allowing such things to be said about my father and
(11:41):
his home. It's not yet clear if Kelly's response is
genuine or part of a WWE storyline.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
If it's not part of a storyline it needs to be.
It sounds me a little bit like it is. But
if not somethingwe and raw and all that stuff. Style
for them to do something that, you know.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
Well, they have to create the villain, right right.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
And so she's the Irish villain here pushing back against
the English you know town and so to me it
works out if that's the case. And it was kind
of a backhanded compliment even though she ended it with
a slam.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Well, it was saying the only good thing to come
from Birmingham died a month ago, So that was actually
a backhanded compliment of Ozzie.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Right.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
So in Kelly Osborne's not from Birmingham, England. She's from
la As far as I know.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
She's obviously got roots there with dad and the family.
But I think that this is if they don't continue
on with the storyline, I'd be shocked.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
It's entertainment. Yeah, So sorry to break it to people
that don't realize WW is fake exactly.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Someone's heart's broken.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
This morning, President Trump is appealing a recent court ruling
that tossed out a five hundred million dollars fraud penalty
against him. Last week, the New York Appeals Court wiped
the penalty, but upheld the finding that Trump was lible
for civil fraud and also left in place a penalty
barring Trump or his sons from serving in executive roles
(13:15):
at New York companies in the near future. Lawyers for
the president filed a notice of appeal Tuesday announcing their
intention to challenge the ruling. So they want to not
only get rid of the penalty, they also want to
get rid of the you know, the being found lible
for civil fraud and being prevented from being executives at
(13:36):
New York business based businesses.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Listen to the overreach here. And so this is confusing
for some people because last week even the administration came
out Trump saying, you know, this is a big victory
with the appeals ruling that kept the fraud case unfortunately intact,
which is why they should be pushing back. But it
did wipe the penalty. That was the victory. Five hundred
million dollars is nothing to steneeze at, even if you're Trump.
(14:00):
At the end of the day, listen to how they're
continuing on with us. They're not letting go.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
No, they're not letting go. Did you expect them to
let go.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Well the way that you know, for people listening to
the headlines, Yeah, it sounded as if, okay, this is
you know, it's a victory for Trump and and we're
moving on here. Meanwhile, this appeals court is while they
did avoid you know, void the nearly five hundred million,
they still are you know, leaving him out there on
(14:34):
the hook potentially for other civil fines I guess, you know, abuse.
I mean, the idea that they could bar Trump or
his sons from survey and executive roles in New York
companies in the near future is insane.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Well, I find it interesting that the judge said that
the five hundred million dollars, which was I can't remember
what the original amount was three hundred and fifty million
plus interest, which you know, got the amount to five
hundred million by the time the judge heard it, I think,
is how that played out. Said it was exorbitant, but
the judge didn't say, so you're fines one hundred million dollars. Instead,
(15:15):
they just wipe the whole thing, but still left the
fact that left the charge, you know, that that they
were liable for civil fraud. And these lawyers man and
these people trying to manipulate the system through these civil cases.
I think it's an abuse of the law, you know.
(15:37):
And if you're on the losing side, sometimes you can say, well,
that's cool, we'll go at it through this different angle.
But now everybody's going at everything through such different angles.
It's diminishing the importance and the effectiveness in the trustworthiness
of the system.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Absolutely this and this touches every level of our lives.
I think about my law enforcement friends who you know,
it was them sharing their stories about civil you know,
their potential to be sued civilly by criminals, frankly for
them just doing their job as law enforcement officers. I mean,
(16:17):
these are things that you know, aren't talked about, you know,
in the sunshine a whole lot, and it keeps many
great people away from jobs like serving their community as
law enforcement officers.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
Well think how they've gone after him civilly. And this
goes to e. Gene Carroll, that nut.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Job, Jeez Louise, that lady.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Who parroted some episode of you know, What's CSI or
what was the show of Law and Order? You know,
and look at the parallel between the Law and Order
case and what she says happened. It's like the exact episode,
and just watch her. She's a nut job and she
(17:00):
didn't win in court. And this is where George Stephanophilis
got himself in trouble and said, you know, Trump was
convicted of rape in these things. No he wasn't. He
was found civilly liable, just like in this case. They
didn't prove any fraud in this case. They found him
in the in the the the standard which has to
(17:22):
be met in these civil cases is much lower than
it is in the criminal court. So they'll go after
him civilly so they can hang this around his neck,
much like Nancy Pelosi's wrap up smear, where you put
something out there, give it some credibility, and then you
can hammer him with it. So these civil cases from
nutjob eg and Carol all the way to this, you know,
(17:45):
civil fraud case in New York. That's how they're going
after the president is through these civil cases.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Just every time you say her name, I go back
to this piece they did about her where she was
wandering in the woods painting rocks and talking about living
with rats and mice in her house. I mean, the
whole she's just.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
Well, it wasn't an on Anderson Cooper where she said
rape is sexy. Oh gosh, she is a nutjob.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
It's disturbing.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
Go back and look at any of the interviews she's
done on TV through the years. That woman is a
crazy New York cat lady. And you know, anyway, enough
about that.
Speaker 1 (18:24):

Speaker 3 (08:23):
Yeah, cue the ham and bacon jokes. Doctors in China
say they transplanted a genetically modified pig lung into a
brain dead man, where it functioned for nine days. The
man's body eventually started to reject the lung. It's believed
to be the first pig lung transplant, and doctors hope
it may one day be an option for people who
(08:43):
need organs. The findings were published Monday in the journal
Nature Medicine.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
No word on side effects, including snorting, sorry.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Rolling around in the mud, set.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Rooting, growing a curly tale.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
But well, I mean, it's long been understood that pigs
are actually closest to us genetically from the animal world.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Oh yeah, there's all kinds of valves that come from,
whether it's bovine or pigs that gosh, my mom has
a metro prolapse and some people call athlete's heart. And
for years that was something she was researching on whether
to have surgery and whether to do the mechanical version
(09:31):
of this or to actually do the animal version of it.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
So what did she do?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
She didn't ever repair it. She still lives to this day,
thank God, please bless her.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Well, maybe she should look into this. Well, it's not
ready yet. So what they're doing is they genetically modified
this long to make it less likely that your body
would reject it. And it lasted for nine days, but
then eventually the man's body started to reject the the long.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Yeah, at the time, she didn't want to feel like
a guinea pig. That's why she sort of just let
it go. But yeah, nine days, that's not long enough.
If you're right, it's not ready. But interesting, Well, no.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
But it's a breakthrough because you know, they got it
to last that long. Now, maybe they can fine tune
it and eventually it will bring relief to people who
need organs. But you know my understanding of it, and
I'm no doctor, I probably didn't have to even give
that disclaimer. You know that when you do transplants and
(10:35):
things like that the biggest problem is your body rejecting it,
and then you have to take all of these drugs
and it really messes up, you know, it inhibits your
lifestyle and even your health, taking all of these drugs
just to prevent your body from rejecting what was transplanted
into it. So if they can overcome that obstacle, then
(10:57):
there can be some real breakthroughs in saving lives of
people who need organs. So it's a good first baby
step anyway. A WWE champion is facing backlash from Ozzy
Osbourne's daughter over comments she made during a show. Kelly
Osbourne took issue with Women's Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch bringing
(11:20):
up her father during Monday's episode of Raw in Birmingham, England.
Lynch said the only good thing to come from Birmingham
died a month ago and she would die too if
she lived there. In an Instagram story post, Kelly called
Lynch a dirtbag and added shame on the WWE for
allowing such things to be said about my father and
(11:41):
his home. It's not yet clear if Kelly's response is
genuine or part of a WWE storyline.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
If it's not part of a storyline it needs to be.
It sounds me a little bit like it is. But
if not somethingwe and raw and all that stuff. Style
for them to do something that, you know.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
Well, they have to create the villain, right right.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
And so she's the Irish villain here pushing back against
the English you know town and so to me it
works out if that's the case. And it was kind
of a backhanded compliment even though she ended it with
a slam.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Well, it was saying the only good thing to come
from Birmingham died a month ago, So that was actually
a backhanded compliment of Ozzie.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Right.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
So in Kelly Osborne's not from Birmingham, England. She's from
la As far as I know.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
She's obviously got roots there with dad and the family.
But I think that this is if they don't continue
on with the storyline, I'd be shocked.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
It's entertainment. Yeah, So sorry to break it to people
that don't realize WW is fake exactly.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Someone's heart's broken.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
This morning, President Trump is appealing a recent court ruling
that tossed out a five hundred million dollars fraud penalty
against him. Last week, the New York Appeals Court wiped
the penalty, but upheld the finding that Trump was lible
for civil fraud and also left in place a penalty
barring Trump or his sons from serving in executive roles
(13:15):
at New York companies in the near future. Lawyers for
the president filed a notice of appeal Tuesday announcing their
intention to challenge the ruling. So they want to not
only get rid of the penalty, they also want to
get rid of the you know, the being found lible
for civil fraud and being prevented from being executives at
(13:36):
New York business based businesses.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Listen to the overreach here. And so this is confusing
for some people because last week even the administration came
out Trump saying, you know, this is a big victory
with the appeals ruling that kept the fraud case unfortunately intact,
which is why they should be pushing back. But it
did wipe the penalty. That was the victory. Five hundred
million dollars is nothing to steneeze at, even if you're Trump.
(14:00):
At the end of the day, listen to how they're
continuing on with us. They're not letting go.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
No, they're not letting go. Did you expect them to
let go.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Well the way that you know, for people listening to
the headlines, Yeah, it sounded as if, okay, this is
you know, it's a victory for Trump and and we're
moving on here. Meanwhile, this appeals court is while they
did avoid you know, void the nearly five hundred million,
they still are you know, leaving him out there on
(14:34):
the hook potentially for other civil fines I guess, you know, abuse.
I mean, the idea that they could bar Trump or
his sons from survey and executive roles in New York
companies in the near future is insane.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Well, I find it interesting that the judge said that
the five hundred million dollars, which was I can't remember
what the original amount was three hundred and fifty million
plus interest, which you know, got the amount to five
hundred million by the time the judge heard it, I think,
is how that played out. Said it was exorbitant, but
the judge didn't say, so you're fines one hundred million dollars. Instead,
(15:15):
they just wipe the whole thing, but still left the
fact that left the charge, you know, that that they
were liable for civil fraud. And these lawyers man and
these people trying to manipulate the system through these civil cases.
I think it's an abuse of the law, you know.
(15:37):
And if you're on the losing side, sometimes you can say, well,
that's cool, we'll go at it through this different angle.
But now everybody's going at everything through such different angles.
It's diminishing the importance and the effectiveness in the trustworthiness
of the system.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Absolutely this and this touches every level of our lives.
I think about my law enforcement friends who you know,
it was them sharing their stories about civil you know,
their potential to be sued civilly by criminals, frankly for
them just doing their job as law enforcement officers. I mean,
(16:17):
these are things that you know, aren't talked about, you know,
in the sunshine a whole lot, and it keeps many
great people away from jobs like serving their community as
law enforcement officers.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
Well think how they've gone after him civilly. And this
goes to e. Gene Carroll, that nut.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Job, Jeez Louise, that lady.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Who parroted some episode of you know, What's CSI or
what was the show of Law and Order? You know,
and look at the parallel between the Law and Order
case and what she says happened. It's like the exact episode,
and just watch her. She's a nut job and she
(17:00):
didn't win in court. And this is where George Stephanophilis
got himself in trouble and said, you know, Trump was
convicted of rape in these things. No he wasn't. He
was found civilly liable, just like in this case. They
didn't prove any fraud in this case. They found him
in the in the the the standard which has to
(17:22):
be met in these civil cases is much lower than
it is in the criminal court. So they'll go after
him civilly so they can hang this around his neck,
much like Nancy Pelosi's wrap up smear, where you put
something out there, give it some credibility, and then you
can hammer him with it. So these civil cases from
nutjob eg and Carol all the way to this, you know,
(17:45):
civil fraud case in New York. That's how they're going
after the president is through these civil cases.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Just every time you say her name, I go back
to this piece they did about her where she was
wandering in the woods painting rocks and talking about living
with rats and mice in her house. I mean, the
whole she's just.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
Well, it wasn't an on Anderson Cooper where she said
rape is sexy. Oh gosh, she is a nutjob.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
It's disturbing.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
Go back and look at any of the interviews she's
done on TV through the years. That woman is a
crazy New York cat lady. And you know, anyway, enough
about that.
