Speaker 1 (00:00):
So Nancy Mayce South Carolina Congress rooman had a rough
day at the Charleston Airport on Thursday. Some airport police
officers were assigned to meet her. At six thirty am,
they were told she'd arrive at the curb in a
white BMW, and then at six thirty five they were
told she was running a little late, so they kept waiting.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
She then arrived in a.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Dark vehicle at six point fifty and not in the
spot where the officers were waiting, and when they were
told she had arrived, they rushed to meet her. So,
according to the incident report, as soon as she saw them,
she started cursing and berating them, calling them bleeping incompetent,
and saying things like this is no way to treat
a bleeping US representative. You wouldn't treat Senator Tim Scott
(00:41):
like this. She got on the phone and cursed about
them to whoever she was talking to, and then after
she got on the plane, airline employees and TSA agents
discussed how upsetting her behavior was, and in the report,
an officer noted that any other passenger who had acted
this way and treated employees this way would have had
their behavior addressed. So, of course, Nancy Mayce responded to
(01:04):
the story on X showing video of her standing at
the TSA security area with no security and she said,
as for the fake news, this is the entrance all
members of Congress use. Are you going to write that
Lindsey Graham and Tim Scott used the same entrance or not?
And then just within the last thirty minutes, she said
this on.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
X getting ready to do a press conference regarding the
incident at the airport. I'm saying, you are not going
to want to miss this. It's on.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Yeah, so she's ready for a fight as always, and
her director of operations also downplayed the incident, telling the
media apparently simply arriving at the airport now makes for
a worthy headline, like completely dismissing her behavior.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Yeah, look, I don't know if airport police got it wrong.
If she got it wrong, there was obviously some kind
of disconnect here. I can't imagine airport police purposely trying
to make it more difficult or more dangerous for me.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
It was a miscommunication. She was late.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
And then have we ever seen Nancy Mace go off
on anyone before?
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Of course we have, so I doesn't surprise me at all.
This sounds like it's it's basically what Nancy Mayce does.
She's going to get even more attention over it with
this press conference today. Meanwhile, you know, sucks for those officers.
I'm sure she'll claim big supporter law enforcement aside from
those particular and they were.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
There to treat her immediately.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
President Trump is on a role making changes to the
White House, and he's very proud of the most recent renovation,
the Lincoln bathroom. So he shared before and after pictures
on truth Social and said he removed tyle that was
quote completely inappropriate for the Lincoln era. Now, the entire
bathroom is marble, I mean over, I mean everything is marble.
(02:54):
So you can see the pictures on X I shared
them where at Ryan Gorman Show, and the old link
bathroom was kind of a sea green color and the
sink and toilet were definitely old. I guess it was
last renovated in the nineteen forties. But now, I mean
the amount of marble in this bathroom because it looks it's.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
So white and shiny, it's ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
And he even said that that marble might be from
the time Lincoln lived in the White House, which is
totally ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Right, it's a lot of marble. I do think generally
it looks better bare it does.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
That bathroom was dated.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
It was kind of surprising to see how that fancy
it was, right, But these are improvements.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
They're just improvements in Trump's.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Image dial not necessarily keeping any kind of like historical.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Value to it.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
No, No, not quite.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Last year, around this time during the election, when things
were heated, we talked about the Women on the View
encouraging people not to have Thanksgiving with their family members
over politics. Well, now MSNBC's Ali Velshi is doing something similar.
Encourage people to get into it at Thanksgiving over politics, and.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Finally, do not let Donald Trump and Republicans normalize talk
of a third term. So when that one uncle floats
a third term loophole conspiracy over Thanksgiving dinner, don't let
it slide.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
And if your uncle insists that it's.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Doable hand in one of these a pocket constitution, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Basically, say go at it with him.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
I just feel like, if you're gonna if somebody brings
it up and you don't agree, you just got to
ignore it because that's how things kind of escalate and again.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
I've said this before. I had this big friend group.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
We all played bunko together, and it all fell apart
during the election last year, and then some people made up,
and then over the last couple of months it's all
fallen apart again.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
The group is completely split.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
There's like a red group chat and I don't know
what the Blue people are doing.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
If that happens, don't grab a pocket constitution, grab a
drink and go in the other road. Yeah, exactly, and
drown your sorrows and some alcohol. The finger pointing continues
on cap Capitol Hill as the government shutdown reaches day
thirty four with no immediate end in sight, one day
short of tying the record set during President Trump's first term.
House Speaker Mike Johnson assisted on Fox New Sunday. The
(05:11):
Democrats are playing games while people get hurt.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
President is bending over backwards to take care of the
American people, and it's the Democrats who are quite literally
using the people as leverage. I can quote you senator
after House member and the Democrats side in the last
two weeks, so said the quiet parts out loud.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
During an appearance on CNN, stated the Union House minority
leader Kim Jeffrey said, it's Republicans who are responsible for
the pain Americans are feeling because of the shutdown.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
And why are Republicans so unwilling to even sit down
and have a conversation with their Democratic colleagues on Capitol
Hill in order to find a bipartisan path forward. It's
because they are trying to inflict this cruelty on the
American people.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Then last night, during an interview with CBS's sixty Minutes,
President Trump was asked about the shutdown and said this
about the Democrats.
Speaker 7 (05:59):
You know, they've never had this. This has happened like
eighteen times before that. Democrats always voted for an extension,
always saying give us an extension, We're work it out.
They've lost their way, they become crazed lunatics.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
So basically more of the same from everyone. All all
snap benefits were frozen over the weekend for forty two
million Americans in need of food assistance and air travel
disruptions continued. During an appearance on CBS's Face the Nation,
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said this about air traffic controllers
who missed their first full paycheck last week.
Speaker 8 (06:29):
I've encouraged them all to come to work. I want
them to come to work, but they're making life decisions
that they shouldn't have to make. Let's open the government up.
Let's pay these people, these young controllers.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Duffy also said this about maintaining air safety despite all
these disruptions.
Speaker 8 (06:46):
We will slow traffic down. You'll see delays, We'll have
flights canceled to make sure the system is safe. But
we have to be honest. When we have controllers where
we have shortages, and towers and traycons doing two jobs.
Does it add more risk into the cytam Some Sure
it does.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
I said last week these staffing shortages, they're only going
to get worse. They weren't going to get better. And
that's what we saw for the weekend. The FAA said
eighty percent of controllers were absent at New York area
facilities in half of the nation's busiest control centers faced
staffing shortages. Major airports in Houston, Dallas, Chicago, San Francisco, La, Denver,
and Miami reported dozens of delays and cancellations. Newark limited
(07:26):
arrivals to about twenty planes per hour, pushing average delays
past three hours. Jacksonville's High Altitude Airspace Center, which manages
a big part of the Southeast, declared a staffing trigger,
forcing re routing around Atlanta, Orlando, and Miami. One thing
that Duffy said that I did think was notable was
(07:48):
that he's not going to fire controllers who stop showing up.
And the reason is, and I mentioned this when there
was that talk about will or will not the administration
start to fire air traffic controllers who aren't showing up
or were calling in sick. Before the shutdown, the FA
was already short about three thousand.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Yeah, they can he get afford to firing maybe one
for not showing up. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
And people who go back to when Reagan fired all
those air traffic controllers, well, if you go back and
you look at what it took to staff back up
in the aftermath of that, it took a while. And
when you're already short about three thousand, probably more, to
be honest with you, if you really wanted to staf
things properly, he can't go fire and air traffic controllers
(08:29):
who are on the job right now.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
ICE agents were reportedly seen wearing creepy Halloween masks while
conducting raids in La. Last week, images showed two officers,
one wearing a Chucky mask and the other wearing a
Momo Challenge mask as they drove out of a facility
in San Pedro a few days before Halloween. So the
agent and the Chucky mask is sitting in the backseat
(08:53):
and he rolled the window down like as if he
knew that cameras were there and they were going to
see him. And then the guy in the Momo mask
was in the front seat. And now the Momo Challenge
was this viral thing on YouTube, and the mask is
pretty scary.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
It's like a white like clown kind of looking face.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
The vehicle they were in was also apparently spotted at
a raid earlier that day, and those two agents were
accused of laughing as they left. So when DHS was
contacted about the incident, the Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security
said Happy Halloween and really didn't have too much to
say about what happened. Now you can see the pictures
(09:31):
on X at Ryan Gorman Show.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
I would say that having an ice operation happen in
your community, especially like you know, LA, those areas where
there's already a heightened sense of nervousness it's unnerving as
it is. If you've got agents showing up dresses Chucky
and Momo, Yeah, that makes it even more scary.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Yeah, that just wasn't a good idea.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Because we're supposed to take it all seriously and they
don't want any more threats against them.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Why stir the pot get it?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Also, I do want to note a Florida man under
arrest accused of making violent online threats against ICE officers.
This person was taking to custody and Fort Myers apparently
posted online threats like shoot the Ice Nazis down like
the rabid dogs they are, and just get a gun
and shoot the Ice Gestapo dead.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
So you know the.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
Threats are coming in, but that that goes to the
point like ICE agents lower them exactly.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
Yeah.
