Speaker 1 (00:00):
A new University of Rochester and Ran Corporation study found
Florida students' test scores and attendance improved after the state
banned classroom cell phone use, but suspensions did increase in
the first year. So, just to recount, Florida passed house
built three seventy nine and twenty twenty three prohibiting student
(00:21):
cell phone use during class unless directed by a teacher
for educational purposes. So some of the key findings. Test
scores rose zero point six percentiles overall, which is huge,
zero point six.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
I don't know, but it sounds good.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
I mean it went up and then one point one
percentiles in the second year of the band.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Again I'm assuming well, I.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
Mean that shows that there's a second year off increase
exactly good. Yeah, I just don't know how ya.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Right.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Unexcused absences declined, suggesting the band maybe helps to and
stay more engaged, and the impact was strongest in middle
and high schools, where phone use, of course is more common.
And that's why I keep pushing back against these school
districts that want to roll back to restrictions, especially in
(01:15):
high schools.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Don't do it.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
No, you don't need to do it.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
And I know a lot of parents they worry about
things like if there's a gun in the school, there's
a lockdown, or if there's a school shooting, or if
there's some type of emergency that they're not going to
be able to contact their kids. But you have to
look at the overall impact of it on their education
just in.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
General, right exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
And then there was the discipline impact, So suspensions more
than doubled immediately after enforcement began.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
We're going to try to push it and see how
much they could get away.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
With, but return to normal by the second year. So
it took you know, schools and students a little bit
of time to the law.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
There's going to be some pushback, yep.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
And look, I think this is easier on teachers, you know,
not having to constantly look out in the classroom and
see kids not paying attention. That disrupts the lesson. Plus
you know it's not in this study, but I wonder
what the impact was on in school fights and things
like that. We've had anecdotal evidence that that's dropped right.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Well, because I think the fights start because kids are
texting each other or doing whatever, getting into it online
and then taking it into the school, and then just
the video aspect of it, taking pictures of the fights,
and that I think encourages a lot of it.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Right, Plus you get the challenges that they're doing in
for all the nonsense. So you know, this is just
one piece of evidence showing that these cell phone bands
have a positive impact. I think it was common sense
that they were going to have a positive impact.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
And then I think there's a bunch of.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Anecdotal evidence that we've heard from different school districts. You know,
kids are paying more attention, they're looking up.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
Yeah principle when he says hi in.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
The hallway, all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
So last week President Trump has a phone call with
Russian President Vladimir Putin. Remember he was kind of like
tweeting during oh yeah yeah, or posting on true social
Then he has a meeting with Vladimir Zelenski. After that
call with Putin, it was announced that there was going
to be this meeting between the two another summit in Hungary.
(03:13):
And then yesterday we learned the summit is off. So
let's go to our White House correspondent John Decker Now
for more, So, John, what happened?
Speaker 5 (03:22):
What happened was that President Trump said, if there's going
to be a summit, if the President's going to meet
face to face with Vladimir Putin and Hungary, there needs
to be a ceasefire in place when they're meeting, and
Putin would not agree to that. The President was backed
up in that approach by our European allies. They put
out a joint statement yesterday, so a full agreement. And today,
(03:44):
in fact, the Secretary General of NATO will arrive at
the White House. I'll be in the pool today, so
an opportunity potentially to ask both the President and Secretary
General Mark Rudis some questions about the strategy going forward
to get Russia to a negotiating table and ultimately to
end this war.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Yeah, not only is Russia not looking to commit to
a ceasefire, there was a new Russian attack on Ukraine
overnight killed six people. So Vladimir Putin just continues to
do whatever it is he wants to do. I don't
What I'm curious to learn is what changed. Did Vladimir
Putin agree to a ceasefire during that call with Trump?
(04:26):
That you know, Trump then during that call agreed to
a summit Like That's what I don't understand because it
hasn't seemed like Vladimir Putin's had any interest in committing
to a ceasefire or any kind of peace deal at
all since Trump took office.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
It's a very good question. I will speculate in terms
of what changed. Often the president is influenced to a
large extent by the last person in the room. And
keep in mind, the President spoke to Russian President Putin
on Thursday, but he met with President Zelensky on Friday,
and he spoke to other European leaders after his meeting
(05:05):
with President Zelenski, and I think they convinced the president
it is not a good idea to meet with Putin
unless you have a firm commitment by Putin to have
a ceasefire in place. And I think it was that
those conversations that convinced the President to put that demand
on the table, and that demand obviously rejected by Putin,
and as a result, no meeting taking place anytime soon
(05:27):
with Putin in, Hungry or anywhere else.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
And then, of course the question becomes, does that mean
that the Tomahawk missiles that Ukraine has been asking for
as a deterrence against Russia? Is there any chance that
that is back on the table now, especially since it's
clear Putin isn't looking to in this war anytime soon.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
Yeah, that's a great question. You know, the President when
he denied those tomahawks to President Zelensky, he did not
deny them altogether. It's not like they're completely off the
table forever. I think it's he wanted to see what
the conversation with Putin was going to be like and
then make a decision, you know, essentially keep that option open.
That option is open, and maybe he'll hear something from
(06:10):
Mark rut Of the Secretary General of NATO today in
terms of why he believes that those tomahawks could be
a game changer to push Putin to the negotiating table.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
All Right, our White House correspondent John Decker with us
this morning. John, thanks so much, really appreciate it.
Speaker 5 (06:25):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Go back to the hamline and bring an ABC News
correspondent Jordana Miller comings us live from Israel.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
So, Jordana.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Vice President jad Van spoke yesterday about the progress of
the Israel Hamas peace plan and actually sounded pretty optimistic
about it.
Speaker 6 (06:40):
He did, and I think, you know that was surprising
but welcome here in Israel to hear the Vice President
really set an optimistic and determined tone when it comes
to America's commitment to move this piece deal into the
second phase. Right, And I think the Vice President wisely
(07:04):
set everybody's expectations by saying, listen, there's going to be
these kinds of violations or flare ups or violence that
we saw, for example, over the weekend, because as he
said it, you know, what do we expect? These are people,
you know, there's a lot of hatred between these people. Unfortunately,
(07:24):
write a reference to Palestinians and Hamas, Terris and Israel,
and they've just fought a very intense war and the
transition from you know, wartime to post war and stability
and a kind of peace takes takes time. And he
said everyone needs to have patience that goes for what
(07:47):
comes next in Gaza. As well as returning all the
bodies of the hostages. Now, Hamas has done a better
job over the last several days, each night turning over
more bodies, right, which I think really undermines their claim
that they didn't know where any bodies were and this
was going to take a long time, because suddenly every
(08:08):
night there's two or three bodies they have, so last
night we got two more. Israel got two more bodies,
and that means that the number now is dropped down
to thirteen for the bodies that remain in Gaza, and
it still includes the bodies of two Americans.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
One thing that stood out to me, I think we
just lost Geordana Miller. I think she dropped. We'll try
to get her back on the line. But one thing
that stood out to me about what Vice President JD
Van said yesterday is that the US won't pressure Israel
to accept foreign troops in Gaza, and there's no set
deadline for Hamas to disarm. That's really the two big
(08:48):
aspects of Phase two. So Jordanah, let me ask you
about that. Jdvan saying US not going to pressure Israel
to accept foreign troops in Gaza and no set deadline
for Hamas to disarm, and that really is phase two.
Speaker 6 (09:03):
Right, absolutely right. Those are the two critical issues that
everyone's tackling first in Phase two. Number one, what is
the mechanism for Hamas to turn over their arms? How
long will it take? You know, as we heard from
the Vice President, there's no deadline right now. That's been set.
(09:25):
Who will they give their arms?
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Two?
Speaker 6 (09:28):
Who's going to monitor this? And the force that's going
to replace Hamas as the military force in Gaza? What
troops are going to be part of that? Right, it's
going to be led by the Egyptians. Maybe the Indonesians
will be part of this too, we're hearing maybe the Turks.
And you know, the Vice President was saying, you know, Israel,
(09:50):
we're not going to put any troops in Gaza that Israel,
that Israel does not is not comfortable with. Right, you know,
We're not going to force foreign troops in Gaza that
the Israelis aren't comfortable with. So remember there's again Ryan,
It's it's a complicated issue. Whatever whatever foreign troops are
(10:12):
in Gaza get deployed there, it will also restrict Israel's
ability in some sense, make it more complicated or difficult
if they need to carry out any targeted attacks, right,
because they don't want to kill foreign troops. So, you know,
I think it was appropriate that Vance spoke yesterday from
(10:33):
the new Sentcom headquarters here in southern Israel about how
America's role is going to be facilitating and coordinating and
overseeing these very complicated issues and helping the sides deconflict
and communicate and coordinate. And it's going to be it's
(10:54):
going to be several months right until we see real
change in the in Gaza. And again that's why this
is kind of a dangerous transitionary, transitional period where we
will likely see again flare up between Hamas and Israel
without necessarily the Seas fire breaking down.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
ABC News correspondent Jordana Miller coming too US live from Israel.
Jordana really appreciate the update, Thanks so much.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
Thanks San.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
I also want to note Israel's Foreign Ministry released very
graphic video yesterday that shows Hamas fighters torturing and executing
Palestinians accused of opposing their rule in Gaza. What I
haven't seen are those who have been protesting Israel over
(11:45):
the treatment of Palestinians and Gaza say anything about Tamas
torturing and executing them.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
They they haven't said anything about.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Yeah, any right, right, kind of silent there.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
President Trump wants two hundred and thirty million dollars in
financial compensation from the Justice Department for its past criminal
investigations into him. He says he's owed damages for both
the Russia investigation and the search of Mara a Lago
tied to his mishandling classifying documents case.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
But he won't keep the money for himself.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
But I was damaged very greatly, and any money that
I would get, I would give to charity. He did
note it's kind of an awkward ask since he's in
charge of the Justice Department and they'd be making the
decision on the compensation, and it's hofully. He's range to
make a decision where I'm paying myself in other words,
to get to have one of those cases where you
have to decide how much you're paying yourself and damages.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Yeah, I'm sorry, this is ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
Yeah, I don't know that anybody gets to get some
type of like restitution from the government if they're investigated
for something.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
I mean, is that something that you can do?
Speaker 3 (12:51):
If you get investigated, you can then even if you're
you know, you get away with it.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
And that's great that he wants to give the money
to charity, But those are tax dollars, Yeah, two hundred
and thirty million dollars, and just the whole situation it creates,
where what does the Justice Department do not give them
the compensation they work for him. It's just it creates
a very awkward, ethically challenged, to say the least crazy
(13:21):
issue there. I want to do a quick pull on this.
I'm curious to see what all of you think. Very
simple question with just a yes or no answer. Should
Trump get two hundred thirty million dollars not from the
Department of Justice, from taxpayers?
Speaker 2 (13:37):
That that's what this is.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Yeah, should Trump get two hundred thirty million dollars from taxpayers?
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Yes or no? Text?
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Talk and then your answer all in one message to
eight two nine four five. Again, talk and then yes
or no, all in one message to eight two nine
four five. Just one of those things I want to
run by everyone to be serious.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
President too, because like does Hunter Biden can he claimed
that he wants money.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
From the for being investigated, I mean, and and to
get the two hundred and thirty million dollar figure, And
I don't know. He seems to be getting money left
and right from like media organizations that he's sued, and
he's making a lot of money. His family's making a
lot of money on the whole crypto thing and some
of those deals. So yeah, this little too much for me.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Again is a Ryan Gorman Show five to nine every
weekday morning on news radio.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
How woud You fla
A new University of Rochester and Ran Corporation study found
Florida students' test scores and attendance improved after the state
banned classroom cell phone use, but suspensions did increase in
the first year. So, just to recount, Florida passed house
built three seventy nine and twenty twenty three prohibiting student
(00:21):
cell phone use during class unless directed by a teacher
for educational purposes. So some of the key findings. Test
scores rose zero point six percentiles overall, which is huge,
zero point six.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
I don't know, but it sounds good.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
I mean it went up and then one point one
percentiles in the second year of the band.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Again I'm assuming well, I.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
Mean that shows that there's a second year off increase
exactly good. Yeah, I just don't know how ya.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Right.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Unexcused absences declined, suggesting the band maybe helps to and
stay more engaged, and the impact was strongest in middle
and high schools, where phone use, of course is more common.
And that's why I keep pushing back against these school
districts that want to roll back to restrictions, especially in
(01:15):
high schools.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Don't do it.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
No, you don't need to do it.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
And I know a lot of parents they worry about
things like if there's a gun in the school, there's
a lockdown, or if there's a school shooting, or if
there's some type of emergency that they're not going to

look at the overall impact of it on their education
just in.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
General, right exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
And then there was the discipline impact, So suspensions more
than doubled immediately after enforcement began.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
We're going to try to push it and see how
much they could get away.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
With, but return to normal by the second year. So
it took you know, schools and students a little bit

There's going to be some pushback, yep.

Anecdotal evidence that we've heard from different school districts. You know,

have to decide how much you're paying yourself and damages.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Yeah, I'm sorry, this is ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
Yeah, I don't know that anybody gets to get some
type of like restitution from the government if they're investigated
for something.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
I mean, is that something that you can do?
Speaker 3 (12:51):
If you get investigated, you can then even if you're
you know, you get away with it.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
And that's great that he wants to give the money
to charity, But those are tax dollars, Yeah, two hundred
and thirty million dollars, and just the whole situation it creates,
where what does the Justice Department do not give them
the compensation they work for him. It's just it creates
a very awkward, ethically challenged, to say the least crazy
(13:21):
issue there. I want to do a quick pull on this.
I'm curious to see what all of you think. Very
simple question with just a yes or no answer. Should
Trump get two hundred thirty million dollars not from the
Department of Justice, from taxpayers?
Speaker 2 (13:37):
That that's what this is.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Yeah, should Trump get two hundred thirty million dollars from taxpayers?
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Yes or no? Text?
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Talk and then your answer all in one message to
eight two nine four five. Again, talk and then yes
or no, all in one message to eight two nine
four five. Just one of those things I want to
run by everyone to be serious.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
President too, because like does Hunter Biden can he claimed
that he wants money.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
From the for being investigated, I mean, and and to
get the two hundred and thirty million dollar figure, And
I don't know. He seems to be getting money left
and right from like media organizations that he's sued, and
he's making a lot of money. His family's making a
lot of money on the whole crypto thing and some
of those deals. So yeah, this little too much for me.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
