Now back to Charleston's Morning News with Kelly and Blaze.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Hey, good Wednesday morning to you. Thanks for listening this morning.
It's just me Blaze. Kelly's out today. So the fix
is in. If you've been paying attention to the news,
you've learned that former President Trump's having a meltdown. He's
running scared of Kamala Harris. He can't believe his poor
luck when he had the elections since with Joe Biden,
(00:33):
he just can't figure out how to pivot against the
formidable Kamala Harris and Tim Walls, and so Trump is
left angry, He's left screaming at his staff, He's left
flailing about not knowing what to do. That's what they've
(00:53):
been saying. If you've been paying attention, I saw headline
this morning Anthony Scaramucci, of all people, was giving the
inside scoop on what's going on inside the Trump campaign.
And if you remember, Anthony Scaramucci was fired like within
the first month of his job working for Trump way
(01:16):
back when, and then he turned into an anti Trumper.
And now he's giving the inside scoop on what's happening
in the former president's campaign? And you see it all
over the news, attack after attack after attack, negative story
after negative story after negative story going after former President
(01:37):
Trump and JD. Vance. But have you seen any negative
attacks or any even measured questions about Kamala's history, her
past policy positions, her shifts supposedly, I mean, we really
don't know what her policies are rather than copy Trump's,
(01:58):
you know, no no income tax on tips campaign pledge
that he made back in June, all of a sudden,
that's as Kamala is only campaign pledge that we know
of so far. So do you really think that the
former president is panicking? Do you think that he doesn't
know how to handle himself against Kamala Harris because he
(02:20):
knew how to handle himself against Joe, you see. But
now that there's a new kid in town, he's running scared.
Seven to two to one talk seven two one eight
two five to five is the number of the ninety
four to three WSC studios this morning. Don't forget. You
can leave your comment if you don't want to use
the old fashioned landline. If you're listening online and you
have a headset, you have thirty seconds to leave us
(02:42):
a message with the talkback feature.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
This is Charleston's Morning News with Kelly and Blaze.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Now the top three things you should know.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
The United Auto Workers' Union is following federal labor charges
against former President Trump and billionaire Elon Musk. The move
comes after Trump and Musk held a two hour conversation
on X on Monday night. During that interview, Trump praised Musk,
who owns the electric car company Tesla, for firing workers
(03:13):
who threatened to go on strike. That's not exactly what
he said, but that's the cruxt of the lawsuit. Theaw
noted that under federal law, workers cannot be fired for
going on strike, and threatening to do so is illegal.
The union recently endorsed Kamala Harris for president. The United
(03:33):
States presidential race turned towards North Carolina this week. Former
President Donald Trump is bringing his Republican campaign to Asheville
later this afternoon for a town hall expected to focus
on the economy. More than thirty percent of Americans fuel
the economies the most important thing on the ticket. That's
according to a recent Gallup poll. Following that current Vice
(03:55):
president and Democratic presidential hopeful Kamala Harris will outline her
plan for the economy in a speech in Raleigh, North Carolina,
on Friday. It will be her first policy centered speech
since she entered the race for the White House following
President Biden's decision to drop out nearly a month ago. Meanwhile,
President Biden is announcing one hundred and fifty million dollars
(04:17):
in federal grants to fight cancer. Biden made the announcement
yesterday at Tulane University in New Orleans and said the
funding will help develop new technology to remove cancer's tumors.
The funding is part of Biden's Cancer Moonshot initiative, which
aims to cut US cancer deaths in half by twenty
forty seven. Now that surprised me that they're saying that
(04:39):
this Cancer Moonshot, that the goal of the initiative is
to cut US cancer debts in half by twenty forty seven.
I mean, I think that's a great goal. Of course,
we want to eradicate cancer. But didn't Biden say when
he was running for president that he was going to
cure cancer. It's literally what he said on the campaign
(04:59):
trail that his administration was going to cure cancer. And
now the aim is to cut it in half by
twenty forty seven. Found that interesting. You know what else
is interesting? Donald Trump's mommy issues. We'll talk about that next.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
From major events to local headlines.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
This is Charleston's Morning News on ninety four to three WUSC.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Now back to Kelly and Blaze.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Hey, if you missed a part of the show, or
if you want to go back and listen to past shows,
we have a whole trove of them online. You can
listen to the podcast for free on your iHeartRadio app.
Just search for ninety four to three WSC and then
go down to podcasts and look for Charleston's Morning News
with Kelly and Blaze. Or you can just go to
(05:48):
our website ninety four to THREEWSC dot com and look
under podcasts. So I was joking before the break about
our talkback feature. If you're listening online, it's a little
microphone you can hit and you have thirty seconds to
leave a message. I said, wouldn't it be great if
you could utilize that throughout your entire life? You know,
(06:08):
everything that you wanted to comment on, whether you were
out shopping at a store or driving down the street
or whatever. It may be you could jump on talkback
and leave a message for the powers that be. It
might even be it still cracks me up. Use it
in your marriage. Maybe it would prevent arguments if you
could just go, look, I don't want to argue about this,
(06:29):
just listen to my talkback messages. But anyway, Robert said, well,
it would be great if the White House had a
talkback feature, and he said, no, never mind, No, it
wouldn't because they'd probably put you on some terror watch list,
much like they did too Tulsi Gabbard who came out
and said that Kamala Harris is a scary she has
(06:51):
scary policies, she's bad for the country, and we need
to be afraid of her, very afraid. And next thing
you know, Tulsi, you know, a member of the military,
senator ran for president of the United States finds herself
on a terror watch list. This is how the government
seems to operate these days. And speaking of the government,
(07:13):
former FBI agent came out and said that after watching
Donald Trump's behavior lately, she's convinced that he's unhinged in
losing it because he's afraid of Kamala Harris, because he
doesn't know how to handle her because of his mommy issues. Yes,
that's what this former FBI agent said, So we'll delve
Moore into that story. Coming up.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
All the latest election coverage is on ninety four to
three USC. This is Charleston's Morning News. Back to Kelly
and Blaze.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Kelly's out today. It's just me Blaze. So how about
President Trump? Former President Trump's mommy issues. According to a
former FBI agent, she says that she was watching Trump's
performance and she can explain why He's been acting so
psychotic lately and becoming more and more unhinged because he's
(08:06):
afraid of Kamala Harris and he's afraid of her because
he has mommy issues. Yeah, He's so afraid of Kamala
Harris that he did nearly a two hour interview with
Elon Musk on Monday night on X that the Harris
campaign described as self obsessed rich guys who will sell
(08:27):
out the middle class down. Trump's running so afraid that
the European Union's digital enforcer wrote an open letter to
Elon Musk threatening him over this interview with Trump and
says that he needed to be mindful of the EU's
rules on promoting hate speech. Former President Trump is so
(08:49):
scared that he has to bust in supporters to rallies
and pay them to be there. He has to fake
pictures of his rallies to make it look like there's
more people there than they're He has to pay social
influencers to come out and support of him. He's running
so scared, And of course I'm being sarcastic because those
are all things that Kamala Harris does. And then we
(09:11):
have Caitlin Collins. I don't know if you know who
she is, but she's an anchor on CNN. She was
a guest on Colbert the other night, and she parroted
much of what I just said about Donald Trump not
knowing what to do with Kamala Harris. She's so formidable.
But then an unexpected laugh line came.
Speaker 4 (09:33):
Trump has kind of been thrown on his heels by this,
and he's not really sure how to go after Vice
President Harris. He knew his attack lines on President Biden.
He really has struggled with how to go after someone
who's twenty years younger than him.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Who is a different gender, a different race.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
It's kind of been this moment where he has not
been able to coalesce around a single attack line.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
I know you guys are objective over there, that you
just report the news as it is.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Oh, I know a CNN makes it, and.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
That's supposed to be a laugh line.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
It wasn't supposed to be.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
But I guess it is.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
That's supposed to be a laughline, that we're objective, And
Stephen Colbert was serious. I mean he was saying, and
we know without your you know that you're objective at
CNN and you just report the news and the audience
bursts out laughing, Caitlin Collinson, Is that supposed to be
a laugh line? No, it wasn't. But you are so ridiculous, Caitlin,
(10:28):
as is your network that people, even the liberals and
Stephen Colbert's audience know that you're not objective and you
just don't report the news. And so news flash to you,
Caitlin Collins. The audience thinks you're a joke.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
This is Charleston's Morning News with Kelly and Blaze.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Hey, good Wednesday morning tea. It's just Blazed this morning.
Kelly's out. Sarah Carter has an interesting article on Sarah
Carter dot Com where she points out the hypocrisy of
Kamala Harris for requiring photo IDs in order to enter
her rallies. She was in Arizona on Friday, where attendees
(11:13):
had to present photo IDs, even though she and President
Joe Biden have opposed voter ID laws. So you see,
for Kamala's safety and security, she requires IDs to get
into her public events. But if you want to go
vote for her in the voting booth, no ID needed.
(11:35):
If you want to come across the border, you can
do that illegally. Not only do you not need an ID,
you don't need to pay any attention to the laws.
Never mind that, but if you want to come and
see Kamala speak in person, then you must present a
photo ID. Hypocrisy.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Indeed, this is Charleston's Morning News with Keel.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Today is National Creamsicle Day. Creamsicles date back to the
early nineteen hundreds when Frank Epperson accidentally created the popsicle. Supposedly,
Episen left a concoction of fruit juice and water with
a stir stick outside overnight, the temperatures drop below freezing
over the night, and when he found the frozen mixed
(12:22):
the next morning, the popsicle was born. He marketed his
tasty treat as a frozen drink on a stick. Of course,
creamsicles are a bit different from popsicles since they consist
of flavored vanilla ice cream rather than frozen fruit flavored water.
But you can trace their origins back to the popsicle.
(12:44):
So what kind of creamsicle do you prefer? Is it
the orange flavored one? Like I'm chocolate everything. And I
was just talking about this the other day. The ice
cream truck came down the street and it reminded me
when when I was a kid, we took a quarter
(13:05):
and we hid them because we got sick of when
you'd hear the ice cream truck coming. Of course, you'd
start screaming, mom, Mom, Mom, and you had to run
in the house and ask your mom for a quarter
and then try to get back outside before the ice
cream truck went by. So my friend and I had
a bright idea that we would take quarters and hide
(13:28):
them in the cracks of the sidewalk and then we
wouldn't have to do that. And you know what, it
was a great idea. It worked wonderfully and we didn't
miss the good humor man ever again. Coming down the Street,
so that made me reminisce a little bit about hiding
quarters in the sidewalk on National Creamsicle Day.
