Speaker 1 (00:00):
I wish I wish these because I get these headlines,
and I wish I got the full story on the headlines.
I don't know about you, ZAC, because I know you
do a lot of preparation stuff too, and you send
us stuff every day. And but you click on a
story and it's you know, maybe twenty five thirty words
and then a video. Well, I can't watch the video
(00:21):
while I'm on the air. I need the printed story.
And it really bugs me when I click on something.
I'm going, Okay, this is interesting. I need to know
what this is about. And then all I can there's
a video. The video doesn't help me. Video, yeah, yeah,
what I get here is Fox News. Martha McCallum joined
America's newsroom to make her reaction to a California gubernatorial candidate,
(00:42):
and Katie is it Porter Porter's CBS interview, which she
abruptly ended after a heated back and forth. And that's it.
That's it. Now I have to watch it. I need
to know CBS got aggressive with a gubernatorial candidate. I
don't know anything about this candidate. I don't know who
they are. I'm looking. I'm not sure that they were
(01:03):
born in the gender they are representing currently. I don't know.
I'm just kind of speculating based on the little bit
of video that I'm seeing here. Yeah, it looks like
a guy. But anyway, do you know anything about this
gubernatorial candidate in California? Do you have any any background
on Katie Porter?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
No, I have no idea. I don't know anything about her.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Actually, do you know anything about the CBS interview, the
Ken Tanker's interview that the head hert storm off.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
No, but I just googled Katie Porter and the first
thing that came up with CBS interview Katie Porter threatens
to walk out of TV.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Yes, I don't want all this on camera. So all
of what right exactly?
Speaker 1 (01:42):
I need to know? This is inquiring minds wanting up
for those of you kids that are the National Inquirer,
which became BuzzFeed. That was their slogan. Inquiring minds want
to know just yeah they're BuzzFeed. Now didn't you know that?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
I did not know that.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Yes, that was the National Inquirer.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
What BuzzFeed was the world. All they did was plagiarized stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Yes, that's the National Inquirer.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Let's see this is from Yahoo newly released footage of
gublatorial candidate Katie Porter threatening to walk out of CB
News has gone viral. She gets flustered by a question,
almost tearing up off Mike. The journalist in question, Julia
Watts of CBS News California Investigates, hit a snag when
the reporter asked the former representative about her prospects of
(02:29):
winning over Republicans in the state as she seeks to
seceed the term limited Gavin Newsom. What do you say
to the forty percent of California voters who you'll need
to win, who voted for Donald Trump? And she said,
how would I need them in order to win?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Ma'am? And Porter was upset on.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
How would I need them in order to win? Yeah,
when the state voted for Donald Trump, you're wondering how
you need them in order to win. You're too stupid
to be governor.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Well, that's what she what she said, I stood on
my own two feet in one Republican votes before. That's
not to say every candidate in this race could say
the same thing, And.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
But you didn't. Just say you didn't it a blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
She just kept pushing her on why do you need
to why why you need those Trump votes basically, and
she was saying, you're being unnecessarily argumentative.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Wow, I just walked out.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
All right, well, CBS is friendly ground. They better not
mess that up. I'm just you know, I'm ABC is
probably even friendlier. But CBS has been friendly ground for
Democrat candidates. I don't that. I don't get that.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Do you know?
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (03:40):
You know who Meddi Hassan is.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
I no, I do not. Who's that.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
He's a guy, he does interviews, it stuff.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
Honestly, probably the best debater I've seen in the world
at the moment that's out there. But anyway, he even
said a politician should expect or shouldn't.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Expect just positive questions. Then that's it.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
You've got to expect some hard hitting.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Well now see here again, let's look back at the
former president. You know, the questions were pre asked and
and you had to get approval. How many times did
Joe Biden allude to the fact that I'm not supposed
to call on you. I okay, I'm going off script
now I'm gonna get in trouble. Hey. They everything was
(04:26):
to make sure that he knew what the questions were
so they could program in the answers and send him out.
There's there's a contingent in politics. I'm on both sides
of the aisle. I'm quite sure that believes that makes sense. Spontaneous,
legitimate questions are completely out of line, and I unfortunately
(04:49):
there are politicians who believe that as well. Not just
their caretakers, not just their handlers, not just their managers,
but there are politicians who believe, Oh, there should be
repercussions for you if you ask me an aggressive or
uncomfortable question. You you can't. You can't ask me that. Why
why you are publicly accountable for this? Why can't I
(05:10):
ask you that? Oh? Yeah, I'm not an answering I'm
President Biden. Did you did you threaten to cut off
one point seven billion dollars to eight in Ukraine if
they didn't remove a prosecutor that was going after your
son and his work with the UH, with the gas
and electric provider that he had no experience with. That.
I told him, you'll make a guy just fear you
(05:31):
won't see this money. We watched it on video. Man,
I never did that. Shut up Columbus City schools in
the news because of a bussing decision, which, yeah, we'll
get into that here in a second. Eight two one, nine,
eight six is my number eight. Aaron's got something, I
guess on this this interview with the gubernatorial candidate out
there in California. Aeron, what's up?
Speaker 4 (05:53):
A man? Uh yeah, I saw I saw some snippets
of this chapter here. And you know what, Chuck, it
was the typical I'm not talking Maga point of view.
It's it wasn't the questions. It was she's so anti
Trump that she won't even talk about it. She's one
of those like she and and when pressed gets absolutely
(06:19):
belligerent and aful okay, like a typical you know, typical
left wing.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Yeah, it sounds sounds like a lefty. That's that's how
they are. How how dare you question me on anything?
Just accept whatever I say as gospel truth and move on.
That's that's uh, yeah, that's annoying.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
And I'll tell you what, it'd be a big mistake
if they elect that girl too, because she's she's right
out of Kamala Harris's playbook. Man, that would be a
horrible thing for Calibounia.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
I'm still a little intrigued by Kamala Harris not running
for governor in California.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
She's running for president again.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Bro, Do you think so? Because I mean, come on,
how many times can somebody hit you with a stick
before you stop coming back for more.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Stick till she wins in her mind?
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Bro, Well, you know what if she she wins. If
she wins, then then we deserve what we get. If
she actually decides to run again New York City before
the next presidential election, New York City will be a bankrupt, vacant,
crime ridden hell hole.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
And it's a damn shame.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Yes, it is the greatest city in America, if not
the world at some point. And to to watch it
going down the sewer the way it's going down, I
just I still have that prayer in my heart that
the people of New York will will surprise me and vote.
I don't care if they vote for anybody else. Seriously,
Curtis Slee was fine with you.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
I like that guy. Man in California. Man, that that
lady and news some they need out of there, buddy.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yeah, Newsoms, Newsom's delusional to I was reading something from
him yesterday about the thousands of the thousands of emails
he has received from people that regret their Donald Trump
vote and and thank him for standing up to Donald Trump.
I'm like, I show show me ten of them, Show
me ten.
Speaker 4 (08:09):
Of them, you know what, man, And I would say
that he's stretching it. However, there's a lot of them
people out there that just will not.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Won't.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
They will not embrace, they will not accept it. He's
not my president forever.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Yeah, I know, I know, and it's sad. I've got
a couple of them.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Man.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
I've got a particular friend of mine, Aaron I got
to run here, but I got a particular friend of
mine who everything everything that anybody posts. He's trying, he's
trying so hard to be even handed in fair that
he's getting honestly a little annoying, because every time someone
criticizes any leftist Democrat for anything, he'll jump on my
(08:55):
social media and say, well, it's both sides, no in
some cases, but he it's not both sides. In some cases,
it's absolutely their side. And I understand wanting to be
even and fair. I get that, but part of being
realistic is also being able to say it out loud.
And if you can't do that, you're not doing you're
not doing yourself any favors. Not liking where your party
(09:20):
is now, I can understand that. Not even liking the
fact that Donald Trump is president and ran and won
as a Republican. I get that. I get that. But
to assign all of the evils of the world, Oh,
it's both sides. I think you're doing a disservice to
your side, which is my side. So don't do that anymore.
Or maybe that's just me.
I wish I wish these because I get these headlines,
and I wish I got the full story on the headlines.
