Speaker 5 (02:06):
Morning, Ricky. It's Wednesday, augut six. Here's what's going on
in the news. Texas Dems are still on the run
and now Republicans want the Feds involved. About fifty Democratic
lawmakers have fled the state in order to block a
Republican redistricting push that could hand the GOP five more
seats in Congress. Now, Texas Senator john Corn wants the
(02:27):
FBI to track them down. Meanwhile, Governor Abbott is asking
the State Supreme Court to oust Republican are actually Representative
Gene Wu, calling him the ring leader behind the walkout.
The Dems say they're standing on business for fair representation.
The GOP calls it obstruction. Either way, the standoff just
got Federal school is back in session for some men,
(02:48):
just days away for others across the country. But one
thing hitting classrooms early controversy. A new law requiring public
schools to post the Ten Commandments is already stirring up
legal drama. A federal judge just blocked enforcement in for
northwest Arkansas districts, but in Pine Bluff, where the ruling
doesn't apply, a group called Pastors on Patrol say they've
(03:11):
got the green light to start handing out framed posters.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
This is just common sense, common sense to help students
learn how to respect their parents, learn how to respect
their peers.
Speaker 5 (03:25):
Families in the blocked districts are suing, claiming the law
violates the First Amendment. Ricky and Ice Cream Shop is
turning heads and maybe stomachs with a new flavor inspired
by breast milk no it's not made with the real thing.
It's not made with a real thing. It's a collab
between baby care brand, Freeda and Off Limits ice cream
(03:46):
for Breastfeeding Awareness Month.

came to the rescue his uber driver. Jeszi shared on
Instagram that severe weather canceled all flights to DC and
Baltimore the morning of one of his Team one oh

(07:26):
trip from Atlanta, but just after two hours in the
car hit something on the highway, puncturing the gas tank.
He and his team in her being stuck at a
tiny gas station in South Carolina with no rental car
or jet options, so Jez's team called an uber just
to get to the nearest rental place. That's when Tanner
(07:46):
and Uber driver showed up, and eight minutes into the ride,
Jezi asked how much to take us all the way
to Baltimore. Tanner thought about it and then agreed to
drive them all the way. Ten hours later, and just
ten minutes before showtime, they made it. Jeszu brought Tanner backstage,
gave him a Snowman tea, and shouted him out as
the real MVP.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Man square Man telling you, Jesus.

let me just tell the story, y'all. One morning we
was in Florida, the whole morning show. So it was
a particular driver I can't remember his name, that the
one that bought you all over we was getting ready
to go on the boat. The man that was driving,
he was really really nice. Yes, he was listening to
