Speaker 1 (00:03):
From major events to local headlines. This is Charleston's Morning
News on ninety four to three WUSC. Now back to
Kelly and Blaze.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Seven oh five. Good Tuesday morning. We appreciate you joining
us as we run down today's top stories.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
President Trump says he's removing Funeral Reserve Governor Lisa Cook
from her position. Trump said on True's Social there is
sufficient reason to believe Cook made false statements on one
or more mortgage agreements. The statement went on to say that,
in light of what Trump called Cook's deceitful and potentially
criminal conduct in a financial matter, that he has no
confidence in her integrity. Cook said in a statement last

(00:43):
week that she had no intention of being bullied to
step down.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
Oh here we go, calling him a bully. So you
and I have talked about this before. Does she get
busted for something that you and I would not be
allowed to do legally, which was claimed to residents to
primary residence.

Speaker 3 (01:01):
She applied for two different mortgages within a short time
in two different states and declared each of them her
primary residence, and then now she's refusing to She says
that she's going to keep showing up for work and
doing the work of the people.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
And I believe her term is something incredible like twenty
thirty two. I mean, she says she's only.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
A couple of years in. I think a fourteen year term.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
Could you believe how long their terms were. I mean,
I'm learning so much myself in the process of all
of this with regards to the Fed Reserve.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
And this is the first time it's ever happened, by
the way that a president has filed fired a Federal
Reserve governor.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
Well, which is you know why some of the pushbacks.
So here we go with something unprecedented. I mean, no
surprise is going to get the hands of a Trump administration.
And at two point oh at that because he is
he is getting business done. Talk about being busy my word,
So I she I would think anybody on this, uh,

(02:06):
you know, on the board of the Fed Reserve ought
to be making sure that all their eyes are dotted
and their teaser crossed.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
Well, they're used to living in the shadows and getting
away with what they get away with, and then now
that the spotlight's on them, they don't like it. You know.
She says that he has to show cause in order
to fire her, and he has no cause, and therefore
she's not going anywhere.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
It's unbelievable to me, the the untouchables that you're talking
about that we have been talking about, frankly with the
Fed Reserve Board. It's it's kind of blows my mind
that they are able to act with such autonomous you
know there and and many people are including this galler
or pushing back saying that you know, we run you know,

(02:51):
this board autonomous of the presidency for a reason. Right,
this isn't a political board. We're absent of that. We're
professional who are just specifically looking at the numbers in
the market, in the economy.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
Well, it's a pseudo governmental you know. It's kind of
a strange hybrid.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
It's weird, but.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
It sounds like a lawsuit to me. Southwest Airlines is
changing its seating policy for larger customers. According to the
Dallas based airline, larger passengers who cannot be accommodated in
a single plane seat will be required to purchase a
second seat ahead of time and can then request a
refund after the flight. Under the new policy, refunds can

(03:33):
only be issued if both seats who were in the
same fare class. The refund request is made within ninety days,
and the plane would have taken off with at least
one extra open seat. The changes are part of southwest
broader shift to assigned seating, and it's set to take
effect on January twenty seventh of next year.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
This has really got people stirred up who are Southwest
frequent flyers, And I say that with this in mind.
I flew on Southwest. It was one of four different flights,
two different airlines, and on my Southwest flight. Now, I
don't often fly Southwest, and so it was kind of
new to me, the way that you can go and
pick your seat. So I was asking people in line

(04:15):
in Q like, you know what im I supposed to
be doing here? And they're like, oh, you pick your seat.
I'm like what, wow, Okay, So I'm normally on Delts
or American Airlines or whatever where you have an assigned seat.
So I asked. They were like, oh, it's all changing.
And I talked to ten people fifty to fifty were oh,
that was the over under on the assigned seating versus
they pick your own seat. So I thought that was interesting.

(04:37):
It didn't come up about the fat people by two seats,
so I can't point to that, but that's been controversial
in the past on other airlines.

Speaker 3 (04:45):
Well, it has. But if you're taking up two seats,
you need to pay for two seats.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
Yeah, well, you and I both aren't small people, and
I tend to be the one that when I'm getting
on the plane, I see the largest, biggest person, I'm
always sitting right next to them. For some reason, it's
like great.

Speaker 3 (05:01):
Yeah, you know, I mean, it's simple economics. If you're
taking up more space than what you would normally take up,
then you're going to have to pay for it.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
So I saw a meme and it was it was
basically a cartoon drawing, and it was had a person,
a large person with their rollly bag standing there getting
onto well the check in part towards you know, getting
onto the plane there at the gate, and one of
them was over three hundred pounds with a fifty pound
rollly bag going to get on the plane, and the
other person was flagged and it said they were one

(05:32):
hundred and twenty pounds with a fifty one pound bag
and said sorry, you're gonna have to pay more for that.
And they said, this doesn't math, you know, make it
makes sense.

Speaker 3 (05:41):
That points out. I mean, the airplane can only handle
so much weight, right, and that includes humans. So and
as the United States especially gets more and more gluttonous
and overweight obese, then there's going to be a price
to pay in more ways than just airline seats.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
This is we're gonna hear this come back in the news.
You know. It's because this has happened in the past
where some airlines have tried to implement this and then
they were sued because of body whatever. Oh I'm being
body shamed. Yeah, being shamed, and so let's all.

Speaker 3 (06:19):
Well, so we'll all just have to pay more because
you can't control what you put in your mouth.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
Oh, here we go.

Speaker 3 (06:25):
Boy, Well seriously, what do you mean?

Speaker 4 (06:27):
Oh boy, I just I So you're in other words,
if an overweight person is taking up two seats on
a plane and they aren't able to sell that seat
because the fat person is taking up two seats, then
they're going to have to have some financial model where
everybody absorbs the price of that seat, right, So you're
subsidizing the overweight person.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Well, the thing is is, how will they know until
I mean all the planes that I flew on were
packed full. There was no empty seats, and so when
you show up, how do you even know? It's not
like you put your weight in when you buy your ticket.
Maybe that's what's next. I don't know, But then people
will just lie.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
Well then, I mean, well, what do you do when
physically one person can't fit in a seat and all
the seats are sold out?

Speaker 2 (07:10):
Well, I'm sure this is an issue, and this is
why this is coming.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
Up, and then somebody has to sit it out right.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
Another example of how these blue state policies are dangering
us all.

Speaker 3 (07:22):
The Transportation Secretary is set to announce action today against
three states over English language tests for truck drivers. The
move comes after an Indian immigrant truck driver was charged
for killing three people in a Florida crash. Transportation Chief
Sean Duffy says the man could only identify one out
of four road signs shown to him in a test

(07:44):
after the crash. The driver have been granted commercial driver's
licenses in California and Washington State.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
The doubling down of in California grewesome Newsome actually saying,
people like this, you know, it's for safety purposes that
we need to give them driver's licenses and look how
that turned around and whacked you right in the face.
Three people are dead. And do you know, to add
even more of a layer of just sickness to this,
there's a petition out here supporting this illegal immigrant trucker

(08:14):
who's accused of killing three people. Do you know how
many people I just checked it yesterday. This was making headlines,
this petition. It's now at two and a half million
signatures of people supporting this guy.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
I mean, it's ridiculous. Obviously they didn't watch the video.
There's a video out there of the crash from the
cab of the truck where you see him just all
of a sudden, hooky, you turn on an interstate in
Florida and this minivan crashes into his trailer and the
people in the minivan are killed. And then it turns
out that this guy can only read one of four

(08:46):
road signs, and he got somehow a driver's license. He
doesn't even know English, and he got driver's licenses in
commercial driver's licenses in California and Washington State. So that
guy's been ripping a around the country. It's costing, and
how many more of them are out there?

Speaker 2 (09:04):
That's what I wonder because I've come across some exposes
of whistleblowers. There's one gal as an African American woman
who actually said I lost my job because I stood
up and said something's nefarious going on here, because there
were a lot of illegal immigrants getting licenses in her state.
I can't remember which state it was. I don't have
the story right here in front of me, but she

(09:27):
went through the ranks and said, this isn't right. This
is because people are getting paid under the table two
hundred dollars a pop to give illegal driver's licenses in
her state. And you know, she was fired for blowing
the whistle and you know the signs alone, and then
to add to a commercial driver's license.

Speaker 3 (09:49):
So again, these are Democrat policies. This is how much
they care for you. This is how much they care
for the safety of you, the citizens of the United States.
This is how much they care for the United States
of America. This is how much. This is how smart
they are. These are their policies that you're This is
why Donald Trump is president because of stupidity like this.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
It's the video is so horrific and awful and I
and I just I can't unsee it and My heart
just breaks for these this, you know, these three people
who could have never have reacted in time to this.

Speaker 3 (10:26):
Well, they're going to do something about it on the
federal level, and then there's going to be pushed back.
And as you said, there's actually a petition supporting.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
Two and a half million people this guy.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
And you have to wonder where the heads are of
these two and a half million people so far. So
there's got to be more.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
Yeah, yesterday when I was looking at it was it
was two point two million. This morning it's two and
a half.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
So it's growing, right, and I, you know, I it's
just stupidity to me. I can't explain it any other way.
California Governor Gavin Newsom has got to be kidding us
is ramping up his online trolling targeted at President Trump
with the opening of his Patriot Shop. Newsom shared in
a post on Acts that the Patriot Shop is now

(11:09):
open and has sold over one hundred thousand dollars worth
of merchandise in marks the governor's latest move in his
recent campaign mocking the President's social media style. Customers can
purchase items from the shop, including a Newsom twenty twenty
six mug don't poke the bear yard sign in a
baseball camp with the phrase Newsom was right about everything.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
I'd really love to see how many in the Pacific
Palisades with completely burned down homes and lives are going
to be wearing this merch and purchasing the hat that
says that gruesome Newsom was right about everything.

Speaker 3 (11:45):
Well, they really think that this is cute and creative
shows they don't have an original idea in their head.
And here's something else Newsom's been doing. He tweeted out
about how Oakland, California, is safer in Saint Louis, Missouri,
and even touts the numbers. So what he's trying to

(12:05):
do is say that these red states are actually more
dangerous than the Blue states. Here's the problem. And he
did that, by the way, with the picture of Senator
Josh Holly. So, first of all, Josh Holly, of course,
has nothing to do with local law enforcement in Saint Louis.
Second of all, Saint Louis has had a Democrat mayor
since the forties.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
He forgot to do his homework on that one.

Speaker 3 (12:29):
Or they don't care about their homework. They're just liars
and frauds, and they just put it out there and
they don't care if it's accurate or not.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
Well, nor do the people who follow them who are
buying one hundred thousand dollars worth of this garbage merch patriot.
I love that they're embracing patriotism. Now, meanwhile, you're the
same people who will probably go to jail under Trump's
executive order if it sticks. I don't think it will.
But with regards of burning a flag, you're over here

(12:58):
burning a flag, wait in the Mexican flags. Now you're
opening up a patriot shop. Come on, so disingenuous.

Speaker 3 (13:06):
Well that's my point. The whole thing's disingenuous, and it's
full of lies. And the more they do this, I mean,
the more they point out their hypocrisy, the more they
point out what liars they are and how they misrepresent things.
And of course there will be a segment of the
population that goes along with them no matter.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
What, taking off their mask exposing the truth. The problem
is is he knows that people who follow him will
just drink his kool aid and not actually look at
the statistics and point out the facts like you just did. Okay,
your mayor has been you know, a blue Democrat for
how long?

Speaker 3 (13:42):
Since nineteen forty eight, I believe so. Yeah, he's trying
to draw a distinction, saying that these red states are
way more dangerous than the blue states. But he picks
a city that's been run by a Democrat and how
many people are three quarters of a second. Well, let's
look at the states that people are fleeing too. From

(14:04):
blue state California that he's running into the ground, they're
running to red states. So make that make sense. Gruesome Newsome,
I hope you're doing well this morning. Thanks for listening.
A British Airways flight attendant was found naked and apparently
high on drugs in the bathroom of a plane on
its way to Heathrow Airport. According to the BBC, Hayden
Pentecost had methamphetamine and mphetamines in his system while on

(14:27):
the job traveling from California to London. Pentecost was said
to be sweating and babbling in flight and appeared agitated.
He had to be removed from his duties by his
manager after he failed to assist with any pre flight
safety checks. Pentecosta then locked himself in one of the
bathroom stalls, saying he had cramps and needed to change

(14:48):
his clothes, only for a coworker to later find him
naked and incoherent.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
Oh good lord, thank god he wasn't the pilot.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
Yeah, so I it might be a little concerning if
you're on the flight and uh one of the flight attendants, Yeah,
is you know, out of his mind.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
You would have thought his coworkers would have maybe wrangled
him in advanced and said, hey, man, you're not it's
not okay for you to be here today, like you
need to go home.

Speaker 3 (15:21):
Well, he had cramps, So there's that which indicates to
me there's a whole other side of this story that
hasn't been explored. So it's probably as cramps that caused it.

Speaker 2 (15:37):
Well, if you if you come to work and you're
complaining of cramps and you're sweaty and incoherent, don't be
mad when I say to you, all right, man, I
got this. I need to.

Speaker 3 (15:48):
Well. Method who goes to work with high on methigh
on meth and UH and amphetamines. Clearly, the m fatamines
and amphetamines.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
He doubled down. Clearly, somebody's not right in his mind.
Maybe didn't plan well I clearly has a problem.

Speaker 3 (16:07):
Well, his cramps were just unbearable.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
I don't know. Men don't get cramps, I.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
Guess I you know, I don't think so, I mean
you would know. Maybe somebody can correct me. I mean,
you know, we get you get a cramp in your
leg or something. You know, right, you.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
Don't have the body parts to get cramps in the
areas with which clearly women who have wombs.

Speaker 3 (16:35):
Well, this is what I was saying. Clearly there's another
side of this story that hasn't been exposed.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
Yet, Lordie.

Speaker 3 (16:43):
But anyway, so yes, now this flight attendant is off
the roster. So I guess let's hope that it's safe
to fly on British air wires.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
So get that man. Somemaya dool.
