(00:03):
It is great to be with you. This is the middle of our work
week. Sorry, I know thathurts for those of you that have to
work through the week regardless. Butwe are all fourth of July and Friday.
But we are here today with you, a cast of thousands, gathered
together in studios one A and oneB, as always beginning with a little

(00:26):
scripture, and again this will tievery nicely into our suggested time of prayer
and fasting. Will reset that laterin the program. Jeremiah seventeen nine and
ten. The heart is deceitful aboveall things, and desperately sick. Who

(00:51):
can understand it? I the Lordsearch the heart and test the mind,
to give every man according to hisways, according to the fruit of his
deeds. I just want you toget your head around that, especially for

(01:15):
those of you that have yet totrust Christ with your life. I the
Lord search the heart and test themind, to give every man according to
his ways, according to the fruitof his deeds. What we sow,
we reap. The righteousness that weever possess does not come from any good

(01:42):
deed, or any nice thing,or any kind words that we say or
things that we do. Any righteousnessthat we have is due to the work
of Christ on the Cross and ourwillingness to accept that on our behalf.
The heart is deceitful above all things. Boy, don't we know it.

(02:07):
We can talk ourselves into and outof things like that because our heart is
deceitful. You've heard me say that. Out of the abundance of the heart,
the mouth speaks. It's why Ichallenged guys back a few weeks ago,
and we began this process of spendinga little bit of time on Mondays

(02:30):
addressing the plague that is in ourcountry of people who claim to be Christian
but aren't acting like it. It'seasy on Sunday morning to show up at
church and go, well, hello, brother, how are you great?
To see you? Praise the Lordmy there's a fine anointing on the pastor
today now, isn't there. Imean whatever, blah blah blah blah blah.

(02:54):
What are you doing Monday through Saturday? What are you doing on the
way home from church? When yourkid annoys you or when your spouse says
something that you just are like,huh, You just tune them out.
You just kind of disregard to you. Or is the facade of Christianity over
the second you close the car doorand on your way to church on Sunday

(03:15):
morning, are you fighting? Areyou picking on you? And then you
get to church and everything's fine.The veneer is on. Man. You
get into that you're playing a fool'sgame because God knows, doesn't matter whether
you can fool the people around you. God knows. So the challenge that

(03:43):
I've been laying out to us collectivelyas a group, and I'm focused on
men, but it includes women,wives, moms. If you're going to
call yourself a Christian, act likeit. If you're not going to act

(04:03):
like it, do us all afavor and stop the charade, because our
country is in a world of hurtand it's and it's it's largely because we've
just flushed God down the toilet.Every every every poll shows a decline every

(04:26):
single decade in those that call themselvesa Christian. Believe in God, believe
in the sovereignty of God, thethe importance and in errancy of God's God's
word. I mean, it's justit. How how much more evidence do
you need when you have a let'slet's let's go back to the founding of

(04:46):
the nation. John Adams said,the constitution will not work for any group
of people except a group of peoplethat have a moral compass in their life.

(05:09):
Why are we running into roadblocks withthe constitution because increasingly our culture is
godless. It's that simple, Solet's pull it back. It's kind of
what the whole thing's about, theprayer and fasting. We'll reset all that
again. If you missed all thenews, huge news, State of Tennessee,
just huge. Ten minutes past thehour, take a peek inside the

(05:32):
American Patriots Almanac and celebrate a specialday in a special way right here on
the Morning Show with Preston Scott.Sorry about that, but thanks. Bump
was still playing from before we wentto break, and he outs himself.

(05:56):
I was gonna say, well backin the show in the broadcast today is
Grant? Allen Grant will be intomorrow, right, Yes, yes,
okay, John is in with us, and uh, a producer to be
named later, Yeah, is in. We've not we've not currently shown him

(06:17):
what not to do. Well,we've we've uh, we've not. We've
not introduced him to the audience yet. Okay, and we're gonna keep it
that way. We're gonna just kindof we're gonna lay low. Well,
he walked in wearing his fake hairfor Pete's sake. I mean, the
man walks in looking like Guy Fieri, yeah, or or sorry, Guy

(06:40):
Fianity, Guy Fiery for the listeningaudience. It's one of those advisors with
the fake hair on top of yeah, the tips, the frosted tips.
It's like, what are you doing? I did not cover any sort of
uh dress code. Well, thereisn't one. That's the beauty of radio
right in that many of us gravitatedthe radio. It's certainly why I left

(07:02):
television. High def cameras were comingin and I was sick of wearing a
suit. I wore shorts every daytill I was about thirty five. Hey
there you go, here you go. Some of those were at Brown University
though, yeah right, yeah,yeah, there you go. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, I know thesethings. I do my research. Anyway.

(07:27):
Today is July second, quickly,because I've got a lot to say
today, which works out really wellfor what I do. I have a
lot to say. It's seventeen seventysix, got in no Congress votes for
independence, and remember John Adams thoughtthis would be the day that would be

(07:51):
memorialized for all time. He thoughtJuly second was going to be the day
we would celebrate with fire works andcelebrations in hot dog eating contests. It
turned out to be July fourth,eighteen eighty one. President James Garfield fatally
shot by a deranged man in Washington, d c. Eighteen ninety, Congress

(08:15):
passes the Sherman's Antitrust Act, thefirst federal anti trust law. Nineteen thirty
seven, Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonandisappear over the Pacific. That story.
I am still fascinated with the storyof the disappearance of Amelia Earhart because of

(08:37):
the reports of radio transmissions that tookplace in the days subsequent to them losing
track of her. The mystery ofdid she end up on this a tall
this island. Was she captured byThere are people that believe she was captured
by the Japanese in World War twoand died in a prison camp. I

(08:58):
don't know. I'm pretty sure thatdidn't happen. But nineteen sixty four,
Lyndon Johnson signs these nineteen sixty fourCivil Rights Act as president, and in
two thousand and two, adventure SteveFoss becomes the first person fly NonStop around
the world in a balloon, andI talked about it on this broadcast.

(09:20):
When things in the history book startshowing up and I say, yeah,
that was a segment on the Morningshow. You know you've been at it
for a minute. I remember talkingabout that story. I remember trying to
get Steve Fawcett on the show.Anyway, today, if you did not
know, is Nash is World UFODay. Not only in the third hour

(09:46):
do we have US Congresswoman Cat Camick, but for all of you that are
nerds about the Skinwalker Ranch or nerdsabout the podcast Haunted Cosmos, which by
the way, is one of thebest podcasts you could possibly ever listen to.
It's on the iHeartRadio app. Wehave the owner of the Skinwalker Ranch

(10:09):
live on the show at eight thirtyfive Eastern this morning. Brandon Fugel will
join us for ten minutes. Icannot wait. Huh do we swing for
the fences or what? And herewe go we hit it out of the
park. Cannot wait. It's goingto be a great visit. So spread

(10:31):
the word because if you watched TheSecret of Skinwalker Ranch or listen to hotted
cosmos you are part of like agroup of junkies. Spread the word because
it's a huge. Get getting BrandonFugel. I'll just it's huge, we
had favor. It's all. I'llsay. Seventeen past the hour, come

(10:52):
back talk about fast food wars herein the Morning show. Three minutes past
the hour. Looking at my simulatorfor Hurricane Barrel, which is a behemoth

(11:13):
as of now, and my simulatoris I've shared with you the program that
I use. It's incredibly accurate andI've used it for a number of years.
It's an app that you can puton your phone and you can have
it on your laptop. It's calledWindy Windy dot com and it is primarily

(11:33):
based on the European models for thesestorms. I've found it to be almost
spooky accurate in projecting paths and soforth. And so what you can do
is you can run a time lapseand based on and you can set up
the layers so you can see what'ssteering the storms, what fronts are going

(11:56):
to hit, where you know wherestorms are going to glide, where systems
are going to collide and create youknow, tornadoes. And when you're looking
at the steering currents of this thing. It appears that it's going to really
slam into Jamaica and then skirt intothe the south eastern part of Mexico and

(12:28):
then kind of dissolve before it getsinto the basin of the Gulf and not
really pose a threat to us.It would not surprise me, because of
the size of this thing for usto see some you know, some rain
dragged in it, you know,because these things are just they get so
big they draw everything along with them. So just we are paying attention to

(12:50):
it a little early in the yearfor this kind of storm, but we
kind of expected that this was goingto be that kind of year, the
weather patterns being what they are.Fast Food wars I circled this story not
because Sonic is offering a fun ninetynine menu, which is actually a bunch

(13:16):
of items priced at one ninety nine, but they're calling it the fun ninety
nine menu. It's everything from aquarter pound double cheeseburger, chili cheese,
coney dog, small tater tots,sixteen ounce shakes, and it's all day,
every day. At all three thousandplus locations nationwide. You can get

(13:37):
the bacon ranch Caso Rap or theSouthwest Crunch Caso Rap on the fun ninety
nine menu as well. It's firsttime they've offered Caso Raps Sonic. You
know, everyone has a different viewof Sonic. I've only eaten at a
Sonic a couple of times in mylife, and it's been yeah, okay.

(13:58):
But I circle this story because Igo to these stories and I read
the comments because people are funny.I'm not funny. People are funny every
now and then. I can bemildly amusing, but I'm not a funny

(14:22):
person. I My humor is foundin self deprecation, which my wife hates.
Don't run yourself down. Yeah,but it's funny. It's funny when
I poke fun at myself, whenI do something stupid. It's funny.
I mean, it just is,and people can relate to that. But
there was a comment in here andagain we're talking fast food wars and that

(14:46):
all of the major franchises the changeare doing a budget meal of some kind.
They're coming out with the five dollarsmeal or the whatever meal, And
I just want you to do themath. Three or four items at Sonic
is eight bucks on their fun ninetynine menu, that's eight bucks. It's

(15:07):
not four bucks, it's eight bucks, and so, while the other change
are doing the five and six dollarsmeals and so, but the prices are
coming down a little bit to tryto get people in there. And one
person writes, great, now Idon't have to pay as much to get
diary. Oh that was so good, so good, and so apropos to

(15:39):
the story. Twenty seven minutes afterthe hour, Big Stories in the press
Box and an analysis that I thinkeverybody's missing. Next in the commercial breaks,
working on my regional diction. Sir, you have to. If you've

(16:04):
watched Anchorman, the Legend of RonBurgerby, you get it. Joe Biden
is the living embodiment of it becausehe'll read everything on the teleprompter. Happened
again, He read the words endof quote. Well that escalated quickly.
Oh why? Thirty six minutes afterthe hour, Time for the Big Stories

(16:26):
in the press Box. Here onthe Morning Show with Preston Scott. Listener's
guide if you are new to theprogram and there are new people joining the
audience, the family of ruminators allthe time, men and women, males
and females only, and yes,even boys and girls. The big stories
are not necessarily though they could bethe things you're talking about. They're not

(16:51):
necessarily the big stories headlining all ofthe pages of the news sites, though
they could be. They are almostalways stories that I just think need to
be on your radar for one reasonor another. Part of me relies on
the other shows that you'll listen tothroughout the day to kind of deal with

(17:14):
some of the other things and todeal with a deeper dive into a story
because a lot of the other shows, you know, mid later in the
morning, mid days, they tendto be shows that go a little deeper
into things because it's just a differentvibe. We tend to go surface level
on a lot of stories and letyou do the digging and go deep.

(17:37):
Although there will be exceptions to thatrule. One story that is on the
tip of everybody's tongue, and Ipromise you all day long, there will
be meltdowns on the legacy media outlets, shows like The View. They will
be they will be bleeding out oftheir eyeballs and ears. Because the Supreme

(17:59):
Court ruled, citing Article two ofthe Constitution, that former presidents, including
Donald Trump and his official capacity morebroadly in the office of the United States
Presidency has absolute immunity from criminal prosecution, never knowing where John Roberts, Amy

(18:21):
Cony, Barrett Brett Kavanar are goingto go. It was a six'
to three decision by the Court.Know, this does not protect Joe Biden.
As we talked to Zach Smith yesterdayin advance of all of this with
the Heritage Foundation, who is alegal expert on the Supreme Court. But
now the question comes up whether ornot anything that's happening to Trump can happen.

(18:47):
What the Supreme Court did not defineis what an official or unofficial act
may be. There you go,you know, I go to January sixth,
and I'm still trying for somebody toshow me what he did to inside
a quote riot. He asked peopleto peacefully go down to the Capitol to

(19:15):
cheer on our brave lawmakers. I'mstill waiting for someone to show me evidence
of insurrection incited by Trump. Anyway, then there's this, and this story
is going to take a little morethat I'll talk about next hour. Axios

(19:40):
is reporting here's the headline behind thecurtain. Biden oligarchy will decide fate inside
the article, it says doctor JoeBiden, his younger sister Valerie Biden,
eighty five year old Ted Kaufman,the president's longtime friend and constant advisor,

(20:00):
plus a small band of White Houseadvisors are the only Biden deciders. This
decade long kitchen cabinet operates as anextended family council of elders and governing oligarchy.
Here's what's missing. I personally thinkthis is the first effort of the

(20:26):
mainstream media to explain how decisions arebeing made because Joe Biden is compromised.
He is a feeble dementia leyden olderman. So who's making the choices?
This is all cover to me becauseBarack Obama's been making the choices since Joe

(20:51):
Biden took office. I'm telling you, I told you then, I'm standing
with it. I think that theproof is now in this flair being shot
up. Well, there's a groupof people that are vibal whatever. Forty
one minutes after the hour, backwith more here in the Morning Show with
Preston Scott. One of the thingsthe Biden administration has been doing in recent

(21:18):
weeks is trying to blame what isan obvious problem for them in the polls
and with voters the southern border onTrump, this is a compilation put together
by somebody else. I don't knowwho actually did the compilation, but let's
just go on the wayback machine.And oh, by the way, pay
attention to the difference in Biden's voice, because you'll know which cuts are coming

(21:42):
from twenty twenty twenty twenty one inwhich are recent. This is staggering.
The reason the border is not secureis Donald Trump and his Maga Republican friends.
Every executive order this president has issuerelating to the border and relating to
dealing with the Hispanic community is goingto be pulled back. We're not going

(22:06):
to be full of with that.I don't believe for a second. We're
in the nation that builds walls andwhips up the stereover immigration. No one
will be deported in my administration.First time ever we've told people they can't
come to America. That ends,the cage is closed, should and documented
immigrants arrested by local police be turnedover to immigration officials. No. Trump's

(22:29):
cruel and humane border policies that youknow, you know remain in Mexico program.
I mean all of This is goingto take time. Not a long
time, but it's going to takeYou have to be prepared so we don't
create another crisis. This is thefirst time ever you've had to seek asylum
in a third country. It's outrageous. It's outrageous. Most of the people
that you deported, they didn't havea criminal record. I think it was

(22:52):
a big mistake. No one,No one will be deported at all.
We're not going to deport anybody whoin fact has not in this country committed
a felony. I would hold ICEagents accountable if in fact they stepped over
my executive orders, which is youonly arrest for the purpose of dealing with
a felony that's committed, and Idon't count drunk you driving as a felony.

(23:15):
ICE is going to go back toschool. We've got to surge resources
to the asylum protectors, and there'sso much we can do. A reverse
Trump's detrimental asylum policies raise our targetfor refugees. I would immediately as presidents
surge to the border. I wouldend this notion for the first time in
history, that people seeking asylum haveto be in squalor. On the other

(23:38):
side, of the river. Iwould also surge to the border. Immigration
judges that make decisions immediately, andno one, No one would be put
in jail while waiting for their hearing. And those who come seeking asylum,
we should immediately have the capacity toabsorb them, keep them safe until they
can be heard. A fifteen second, if you could. If the answer,

(24:00):
should someone who is here without documentsand that is his only offense,
should that person be deported? Thatperson should not be the focus of deportation.
This is the first president of historyof United States of America that anybody
seeking asylum has to do it inanother country. That's never happened before in
America. That's never happened before inAmerica. Only fellows get deported and everyone

(24:23):
else say yes. The idea thatthey are being sent home by this guy
and they want to do that isthey've gone to a country they've never seen
before. We owe them, Weowe them. We immediately surge to the
border. All those people are seekingasylum. They deserve to be heard.
You think you've got enough there now, He's not going He did not,

(24:47):
he wasn't going to. He madeit clear. He owns the border.
Friends, this is him everything,the invasion of this country, the millions
upon millions that are here illegal,the children that have been murdered, the
people that have been murdered, thelittle girl in Houston that was found under

(25:07):
the bridge last week. This iscollateral damage that's acceptable to them to get
people in this country illegally and registeredto vote. Forty six minutes after the
hour, back with more here inthe Morning Show with Preston Scott Oh the
fun doesn't stop here. Find moreon his vlog wufla FM dot com keyword

(25:30):
Preston. All Right, Locals,A little update here. We had mentioned
and this really is important for anybodyin the surrounding area that has relied on

(25:51):
refuge House to be a safe harborfor women and girls being abused. Refuge
House has long been a place.I've helped raise money for it. We've
helped raise money for it. Itwas a place that people in abusive relationships
could go. Women wives, girlfriends, bouses, of course, but women

(26:18):
could go a hidden location that wassafe. We were alerted back a few
weeks ago to an event that refugeHouse was holding at a local public library,
kind of an informational gathering inviting younggirls between the ages of like twelve

(26:45):
and seventeen or whatever, And inthat invitation that was printed on their Facebook
page or their notice had these wordsor if you identify as one. I
was like what. I reached out, called and I got an email back

(27:10):
from just refuge House, no onenamed, and they just said that they
ignored the question. The question wasare you allowing biological men in the home
with women seeking refuge? They neveranswered the question, which of course means
they answered the question. Got tofollow up here from a listener and someone

(27:30):
interested in the story. Surprisingly,I received a call this morning and named
the person that is on the staffat Refuge House. She did clarify that
trans women are allowed to seek refugeat refuge House and attend any events.

(27:52):
So I'm making you aware if youare a woman seeking refuge, understand that
at Refuge House there could be biologicalmen there. Just saying I will not
be supporting that program again, thatis absurd, that is beyond stupid,
And I'm just making you aware.Perfect segue every day because of what's happened,

(28:18):
certainly where John lives, Panama City, it's been in the news.
We're losing too many people off ourbeaches in Florida and in general, if
you're visiting the state, if youhave visitors, if you don't pay attention
to that, please pay attention.But to help you out on my blog

(28:40):
page, I have a post thatteaches you how to see rip currents from
the beach two and a half minutesand it shows you different examples of what
it leafs. And yes, therecan be rip currents on a green flag
perfectly calm day. The second videoteaches you how to get out of one.

(29:03):
A lifeguard puts himself in a ripcurrent and he says, here's what
you do. Here's what you don'tdo. If you're a civilian on the
beach and you see someone, here'swhat you don't do. Here's what you
do. It could save your life. No hyperbole. Here, the videos,
the content, the warning, theadmonition double red water clothes to the

(29:26):
public. Red high hazard, yellow, medium hazard, green, low hazard.
But notice the word hazard is stillthere and purple jellyfish, sharks,
dangerous marine life. Pay attention.All right. I want to keep you
around as a member of the audience. I need as many ruminators as I
can get, all right, Sowe're here to help in the blog page

(29:49):
wflafm dot com slash Preston or WFLApanamacity dot com slash Preston. It will
be advantageous for you to take thetime, and especially if you've got out
of towner's coming in this summer,or if you're heading to the beach.
And yes, the kids can toget knocked off their feet if they're standing

(30:11):
in knee high water, So besmart. Let's keep everybody safe for the
rest of the summer, and let'snot lose any more lives. Top of
the Hour, Hour two next What'sUp? Ruminators Hour two Show fifty one

(30:38):
to eighty eight, Day twelve,fifty nine of America held hostage morning show
with Preston, Scott and Preston.He's John and that's new guy TVD Yeah,
to be named later. We're notgonna out him yet. I don't

(31:00):
want. I don't want people thatmight know our next producer to make his
life a living hell and cause himto quit before he even really gets started.
Now, perhaps you missed yesterday's program, Perhaps you missed my mention of
this last week, and I meanthis with all sincerity. What happened in

(31:27):
the state of Tennessee I think isone of the most important developments period and
you can fill in the blank developmentin anything. The vote was twenty seven

(31:48):
to one in the Senate, eightytwo to six in the House. Now
they might have Republican majorities, butthey don't have that kind of majority.
The governor signed it. Ninety threepoint nine percent of the Tennessee lawmakers voted
in favor of this. What isit? It was a resolution to call

(32:14):
the citizens of the state of Tennesseeto a thirty day time of prayer and
fasting. Wasn't Thanksgiving? Was itEaster? Wasn't it Christmas time? This
is a thirty day call to thecitizenry. And inside the bill the resolution

(32:37):
which I've I've posted on my blogpage a link to it. There's no
water down language. It's God,the God of the Bible, It's Jesus
his Son, it's the Holy Spirit. It's very very clear what the call

(32:58):
is and the reasons. And so, after after praying about it, not
just thinking about it, but reallypraying about it, I shared it with
my pastor. He shared it withthe church, just saying, hey,
if this is something you feel likeyou want to do, you can join

(33:23):
with the state of Tennessee and otherstates. Maybe who knows. I don't
know churches people, I mean,do we really make a mistake by praying?
Is it really bad? Is somethingbad gonna happen? But I got
email response when I said let's dothis yesterday. I said, let's do

(33:46):
it. Let's join in for themonth of July. We have a pretty
consequential set of elections local, state, national, coming up. There's some
significant issues, and I'll illustrate thatin just a moment. But I got

(34:06):
email from people saying I don't knowthe first thing about fasting, and honestly,
I suck at prayer. I don'tknow how to do it. I
wrote on thy fifteen hundred word blog, I I if you don't know.

(34:30):
Vocationally, I served as a pastorand an associate pastor for about twenty years,
and I offered some thoughts based onmy study and knowledge of God's word.
I am not the be all endall on anything. I'm just sharing
what the Bible says and doesn't sayon the subjects. Here's what I want

(34:53):
you to understand. Jesus said thereare certain battles we face spiritually that cannot
be defeated. Just through prayer,but requires prayer and fasting. I believe

(35:15):
we are fighting against demonic principalities andpowers. That yeah, there's some people
that are certainly willing to allow thatstuff to reign in their life, and
that evil is evident, but thatwe need to focus our prayers in the
right way, in the right place. And so I've got a blog up

(35:36):
teaching on how to pray because Jesussaid pray like this, and so I
use that as an outline and thento share some thoughts on fasting. It's
on the blog page. It's waitingfor you if you want to join in
WFLA FM dot com slash Preston orw FLA Panama City dot com slash Preston

(36:00):
invite you to join us in thefast for the month of July. Why
are we doing it? Next?We got to subscribe to the Conversations with
Preston Scott podcast on the iHeartRadio app. Welcome to the Morning Show with Preston
Scott. Everything in your life mightbe awesome, and if it is,

(36:29):
praise the Lord. Seriously, Iam happy for you. But yesterday,
like one day last week, Ijust found myself staring at headlines overwhelmed.

(36:50):
Why do we need to pray andseek God's forgiveness, humble ourselves collectively repent,
which means to change directions as anation. Check this out. I'm
just reading headlines. US Marshalls recovertwo hundred missing children across United States during

(37:16):
Operation we Will Find You too.These children were being sex trafficked. Texas
man arrested while impersonating child protected Servicesworker to gain access to children. Georgia

(37:40):
couple arrested on child sex charges afteroffering sex with their two year old daughter.
The mother had videotaped herself with thechild and sold it online and was

(38:00):
offering people opportunities if you will.Woman pummeled dragged on video as violent brawl
breaks out in LGBTQ parade. Bidenfamily placing blame for president's poor debate.

(38:22):
We can't even accept responsibility for ourselvesanymore. More headlines. I just printed
out pages of them here. Indianamother strangled to death after serving teen's son
eviction notice. Her son refused tomove out of the home. The mother

(38:52):
had to escalate things. The sonkilled her. Who does that? GOP
lawmaker sounds alarm on latest threat fromChina. A rifle toting ai robotic dog.

(39:17):
Headline after headline after headline showing thecomplete dysfunction of our country government,
our debt our debt alone, andthe unwillingness of the government to do what

(39:39):
you and I have to do.You know, we got three guys sitting
in our studios right now, allright, every one of us is in
the exact same spot. There's alimit to what we can borrow from a
bank and a lending institution, becausethe lending institution says, uh, you

(39:59):
know, you need to pay offsome debt before we can extend you more
credit. You don't have the incometo warrant the borrowing of more money.
I'm sorry. The answer is no. The government removes one part of that
equation. They have unlimited income.They take whatever they want, whatever doesn't

(40:24):
matter, but only from certain groups. But still the problem is still the
issue of debt. They're not livingthe way that you and I have to
live. I'm sorry, you can'tborrow any more money, friends, These

(40:45):
are all problems of a moral nature. It is immoral to keep spending the
money we're spending as a nation.It is immoral to a liberals. I
would say to you, write acheck. Quit demanding that other people pay

(41:06):
taxes for the charities you won't supportwith your own checkbook. Write a check
sixteen minutes after the holm fla onyour phone with the iHeart Radio app and
on hundreds of devices like Alexa,Google Home, Xbox, and Sonos and
Ihearts Radio. Season lead assistant,not the lead research assistant on the program,

(41:43):
sent me a note yesterday with astory and it was from Nigeria suicide
bombers targeting a wedding, a funeraland a hospital and coordinated at tax in
northern Nigeria that killed at least eighteenthe Borno state. It rang a bell.

(42:12):
Do you remember ten years ago twohundred and seventy six girls abducted by
an Islamis terrorist group in Nigeria calledBoco Harm. Remember that some of those

(42:36):
girls were released after intense negotiations.Some escaped, but ninety eight girls were
never ever accounted for. Subsequent tothe abduction, the word was some of

(43:01):
these girls were impregnated by the terrorists. All of them were brainwashed and convinced
that their families gave them up andthey were abandoned, and that the terrorist
group, the Islamist extremists were theonly ones who really cared and loved them.

(43:28):
I will bet the suicide bombers.Oh, I forgot to mention female
suicide bombers in the same state inNigeria where they were taken. I will

(43:53):
bet right now those suicide bombers arethose little girls were taken. We're brainwashed
and set loose at a wedding,at a funeral, and at a hospital
to light themselves up at the sametime. I would bet, and I

(44:21):
think it is reasonable for me toassume it's ten years and two months after
they were taken. Ten years.Those girls were a secondary school, so

(44:43):
they are likely in their early twentiesmid twenties. Now, do you know
anything about the Stockholm syndrome where kidnappedvictim become sympathetic to their captors over time.
It happened to Patty Hurst. Someof you are old enough to remember

(45:07):
the Patty Hirst saga. She wasscrewed up. The rest of her life
took years, she was programmed,she ends up committing crimes with her captors
because of Stockholm syndrome. These girlshaven't been kept in a closet for a

(45:28):
few days. They've been kept foryears, locked up and told a new
narrative. Is it really crazy forme to think that these female suicide bombers
are those same little girls that weretaken? Now? I don't know that,
we don't know right now, butthat's what I think we're going to

(45:49):
find out. I remember a linethat in islamist wrote in Why He Became
a Christian? He said, hesaid, I became a Christian because Jesus

(46:12):
died for me, and in Islam, Mohammad asked me to die for him.
Don't tell me the world religions areall the same. Don't. Don't,
don't, just don't. Well,but preston you don't understand that that's

(46:36):
just an extremist, zealot wing ofthe Islamic Oh no, my friends,
I've I spent eight years studying worldreligions in an Islamic world, those that
don't believe that it's your job togive your life for Muhammad are guilty of

(46:57):
apostasy, and right behind the infidelsthat don't believe in Islam and Muhammad and
all of the nonsense. They're targetedfirst, the apostates are targeted. Second.
Are there people in Islam that arepeace loving? Absolutely? But they

(47:17):
are targeted by the extremists because theydon't embrace all of what the Qur'an and
the writings of Mohammad say. We'rejust we're seeing it unfold around us,
the differences and the importance of whatI started this half hour prayer and fasting.
That's why you gotta do it.Twenty eight after the hour, big

(47:39):
stories in the press box and more. Next, an amazing third hour still
to come. Thirty one minutes,thirty six minutes. Sorry after the hour.

(48:00):
The female I get just makes melaugh. I'm glad you came around.
Oh my love you ruminators. Thanksfor as always for joining us on
the program. Next hour I mentionedan epic third hour. US congress Woman
kat Camick, who is always agreat chat, just a wonderful visit.

(48:23):
She's one of the best we've gotin congress anywhere, and she'll join us.
I don't agree with every single vote, but I agree with darn near
all of them. And if youare a fan of the History Channels,
the secret of Skinwalker Ranch, which, oh by the way, tonight nine
o'clock Easter your eight o'clock Central onthe History Channel. The owner of Skinwalker

(48:47):
Ranch, Brandon Fugel joins US Livean hour from now. Yes, you
heard right, crazy big stories inthe press box. Let me read what.
John Roberts, who wrote the ruling. Supreme Court ruled sixty three,
citing Article two the US Constitution thatformer President Trump and his predecessors those who

(49:13):
sit in the Oval office have immunityfrom criminal prosecution, quoting it is these
enduring principles that guide our decision inthis case. The president enjoys no immunity
for his unofficial acts, and noteverything the president does is official. The
president is not above the law,but Congress may not criminalize the President's conduct

(49:34):
in carrying out the responsibilities of theexecutive branch under the Constitution, the system
of separated powers designed by the Framershas always demanded an energetic, independent executive.
The President therefore, may not beprosecuted for exercising his core constitutional powers,
and he is entitled, at aminimum, to a presumptive immunity from
prosecution for all his official acts.That immunity applies equally to all occupants of

(50:00):
the Oval office, regardless of politics, policy, or party. Now,
the Supreme Court did not define whatis official and what is an unofficial act.
The dissenting justices who are of theactivist nature, though occasionally joined by
a couple members of the originalist branchof the of the court. Well,

(50:22):
what if, what if the Presidentorders that that Seal Team six kill the
Secretary of State or the Attorney Generalor the Vice president? They are They
were reprimanded by the Chief Justice forhow they wrote their dissent. But that
is what it is Axios coming outand reporting that the Biden oligarchy will decide

(50:46):
the fate of whether Joe Biden runsthe race to its finished or finish or
not. Now, as of now, they've circled the wagons. What's interesting
is the acknowledgment of an oligarchy.Anybody with an ounce of common sense knew
that Joe Biden was not capable ofbeing president from the get go. I

(51:10):
made the point several years ago whenBarack Obama left office and did not go
to Chicago or the Burbs, didnot move to California or whatever. When
he stayed in Washington, d C. I suggested that he was going to

(51:32):
be setting up and in fact runninga shadow government. And I believe I
can list a series of things thatproved my assertion to be likely accurate.
Everything from the fifty one intelligence officialsthat worked for the CIA that signed on
to the fact that the laptop storywas collusioned by Russia. Nonsense. It

(51:55):
was nonsense at the time. Whowould do that? People owing allegiance to
somebody. Energy policy. Remember whatBiden said or Obama said when he took
office, he was going to fundamentallytransform the economy and this nation. He
didn't really get to do that,But boy, it's happened in the last
three and a half years, amassive transformation, and not for the better

(52:22):
ordering. What bulbs you use,what appliances you use, what cars you
drive, all of the various controlfunctions that came about as related as it
relates to COVID and masking, it'sall control. This is their utopia anyway,
the oligarchy. That's that's subterfuge.That that is not the eye on

(52:45):
the ball, says Obama forty oneminutes after the hour. Baby names that
are becoming popular traffic, weather,sports, entertainment, add the truth the
morning show at Preston's Scott On NewsRadio one hundred point seven WUFLA. Yeah,

(53:10):
baby names in the news. Wealready are seeing trends with just half
the year. And first of all, can you believe we got half the
year in the rearview mirror. It'sofficially Christmas shopping season. Now the Christmas
decorations are up at Walmart, arethey Well, they're out at hobby Lobby.

(53:34):
They are absolutely out at hobby Lobby. But but you were saying about
baby names. So during Game ofThrones, the name Khalisi became a relatively
popular baby name, enough to betracked, okay, and then she turned
out to be the big villain ofthe show. And by now some are

(53:54):
saying, oh, yeah, thatfits. Yeah. Well, it's interesting
saying because TV dramas, movies,and sports are influencing baby names. According
to baby Center, the film DunePart two has inspired Channi and Sahaya as

(54:19):
two names that are now gaining inpopularity. TV's adaptation Disney TV's adaptation of
Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Yes, Percy is gaining popularity. What's interesting
about that is it is a namefor both boys and girls. According to
the Baby Center, the name Percyis actually rooted in the word perseus,

(54:45):
which is Greek and it means destroyer. I don't know, I've never When
I was younger, my brother,my older one of my older brothers and
I we had this stick that wewould do and it was the Truck and
Percy show, and we always arguedover who was Truck and who was Percy.

(55:07):
For reasons that you can probably guess. For some fans of the Greek
gods, Aries is coming back thegod of war Hermes, the Greek messenger
god. Wow okay, Saul Spanishfor Sun has jumped up and has jumped

(55:28):
two hundred and sixteen spots. Stellaanother Greek name meaning star. Yeah,
yeah, there you go. AuroraLatin word meaning dawn is up. Caitlin
Clark is fascinating. Not only isshe inspiring more Caitlin's which is rooted in

(55:51):
the English Catherine, but Clark isnow becoming more popular for boys. I'm
not quite sure how you break thenews to your little fella that he was
named after a WNBA basketball player,but hey, I'm just saying it's it's
in the news. The new seasonof Bridgerton, Yes it's a Netflix period

(56:20):
piece, all right. Penelope,the the the show's protagonist, is is
now popular. Also on the show, the sibling names of Anthony, Eloise,
Francesca, and Gregory have all jumpedup. Where are your thoughts on

(56:42):
where you get inspiration for baby names? Do you do you turn to pop
culture? Did you? I haveone child? Okay, and the name
we really wanted to go with wasGrace, but my last name is Lund,
so we didn't want Graceland for aSo you went so far as to,

(57:02):
uh, how that might roll offthe tongue if people put the first
and last together. Okay, yeah, we we We went with Madeline,
and then the two of the fourgrandmothers, Jane and Mercedes. Mercedes,
yes, Cuban as opposed to Mercedes. Yes, Mercedes not a stripper name.

(57:23):
I gotcha, Yeah, I gotyou, I got youa hey,
come on now, come on thisfamily show here. Yeah. When I
was named, I was named aftermy brother's favorite TV show at the time,
which was Sergeant Preston of the Yukon. And ironically, I have three
first names and I have three lastnames. Uh. People routinely still call

(57:45):
me Scott Preston. Routinely. Ifa doctor's office can't find my records,
I just look under Preston. Ohhere they are. Yeah, but Preston
Ray Scott. I've yeah, soI but I was named after a TV
show, no other connection to itwhatsoever. What's crazy is I now have

(58:08):
people that listen to this program.One in fact, who brought me the
nut goodies. They have a sonnamed Preston, not saying, just saying
forty seven minutes after the hour,forty eight minutes now past the hour,
manly minute more coming up next tothe Morning show with Preston Scott. Big

(58:30):
challenge, of course when we haveCongresswoman Cammick on the program is to narrow
down and zero in on what we'regoing to talk about. And one of
the things that I try to dois as I come across stories, we
discuss things, rulings happen, decisionshappen are made. I try to set

(58:51):
those stories aside. So it's likea I have a personal defense stack things
that I want to bring up withCharlie and JD. JD's in by the
way tomorrow in our personal defense segmentfor July. I have a stack for
Justin Haskins of the Heartland Institute.Justin a prolific researcher, and he,

(59:14):
in fact probably writes most of GlennBeck's books. Glenn writes a few things,
but Justin is the co author fora reason. And with Kat,
I have a stack of things thatI want to discuss because I just I
think she's sharp, and I thinkthings can get on her radar that might

(59:37):
stay there until something gets done orwe get some level of resolution. So
Kat Camick joins us also next hour. He is the chairman of the Colliers
International, which I'm I'm guessing it'smaybe real estate development, but I couldn't
swear to that. He is.He serves on the Governor's Economic Council in

(01:00:02):
the state of Utah. Co foundedseveral technology companies, and he's the owner
of the Skinwalker Ranch. And tonight, of course, at nine o'clock Eastern,
eight o'clock Central, another episode ofthe Secret of Skinwalker Ranch. We'll
have Brandon Fugel with us at thebottom of the hour. Next hour.

(01:00:22):
Cannot wait, cannot wait. Butin the meantime, time for a many
minute. These are tips, theseare virtues, values, skills to teach
your son. Now, I'm askedfrequently, what about us single moms,

(01:00:45):
moms, brother, grand your dad, somebody speak into your son's life.
This one dealing with outdoor work.Teach your son how to discern vines.
Vines are spawn of Satan, andsome of them, like poison ivy,

(01:01:07):
are a real problem. Some ofthem have thorns, some of them don't.
Some of them are friendly, someof them aren't. Teach your son
how to deal with vines, especiallyif you live in Florida and the northern
parts of the state. You justneed to know. It's a very important
skill set to know how to gointo that jungle of your yard and separate

(01:01:29):
the good from the bad, goodfrom evil. That way, one day
you can look at your son afterhe's helped you and hopefully not covered in
poison ivy or poison oak, youcan say you, sir, you are
a man. Time for Hour threeof the Morning Show with Preston Scott,
Congress Women, Cat Camick next thirdhour Morning Show with Preston Scott. In

(01:02:04):
Preston, He's John and that's ournew producer to be named later. Not
that we don't have a name.We certainly has a name. It's like
a mystery Lucky Charms something like that. Yes, absolutely, but it's great
to be with you this morning.Ruminators, third hour and this being the
first Tuesday of the month. Wheneverpossible, we're able to get some time

(01:02:27):
with US Congresswoman Kat Cammick, Florida'sthird district. Good morning, Congresswoman,
How in the world are you?Oh well, good morning, Toulia.
I feel like you made a luckycharm reference. So I almost try to,
you know, do the accent andeverything, you know, top of
the morning. But we're doing good. Well now wait wait, wait,
wait, wait, because you almostsounded like you were from Fargo, North

(01:02:49):
Dakota. There. I know,terrible with accents. The family is from
Minnesota. So if you get megoing all no way, we'll say,
you know, oh don't you knowyou? Oh my gosh, yeah,
do you drink pop tool? Haveyou ever been to Hibbing? Have you
been to Hibbing? Minnesota? There? Congresswomen? Oh yeah, yeah,

(01:03:10):
yeah that they have a real upthere. Oh my gosh, yeah,
Landa Goshen. We're like cousins,you and me. Oh no, yeah,
I grew up. I grew upin the suburbs of the Twin Cities
there, don't you know, Ohgo by school. Oh no, we
can't do that now, I drawthe line there. Hey, what was

(01:03:32):
what was your reaction when the SupremeCourt ruled that former presidents have a lot
of immunity. I thought it wasgreat. I mean, it was what
we expected. I mean, itfeels like the last week has been the
gift that keeps on giving. Truly, We've had a series of tremendous rulings

(01:03:54):
coming out of out of Scotis andof course the debate that showed the world
whatever single one of us already knew, but just confirmed it for the world,
and you know, really showed thatthe democrats of the liberal media have
been gaslighting us for the last threeyears. But when talking about presidential immunity,
it's exactly the case that Donald Trumphas been making, and that as

(01:04:17):
president you have to have immunity inthe decisions that you make. Now,
the court they were very clear thatin your official capacity you cannot help be
held liable. Now, I thinkthat we are going to see Biden,
well not necessarily Biden himself, butpeople around Biden try to test the limits

(01:04:38):
of that. So of course,you know, vigilance is always key.
But I think it's going to makethe case that Jack Smith and others have
been pushing fault pieces, and itreally just puts the choice of who is
going to be the next president backin the hands of voters rather than these
weaponized, hyper politicized ags and das, is a win for the American people.

(01:05:01):
Axios came out, and of courseAxios is well left of center when
it comes to what it writes andreports. It talked about the Biden oligarchy.
Here's my immediate thought, though,Kat, was that's just that's a
flair, that's smoke distraction. BarackObama's running this country. I believe that

(01:05:21):
from the moment he set office inback in Washington, when he left office
as president. What are your thoughtson that? You know, I think
it's again. I would have Democratcolleagues come back from meetings at the White
House and we would be on theHouse floor voting, and they would say,
you know, I've worked with thisguy for years. He couldn't remember

(01:05:43):
my name. Anyone who has hadsomeone in their family or a loved one
suffer from dementia or Alzheimer's recognizes theshuffle, the glassy eyed look, the
up and down, and the voice. And so we've all been seeing that,
we've been knowing it. And Itruly believe that if Joe Biden had

(01:06:04):
you know, been in a betterplace, many of the people that have
been hired wouldn't have been hired.He in his right mind would have never
agreed to some of the stuff.But you see these crazy, hypersexualized lgbt
QYA m AP people being embedded atthe highest levels in the communication shop,

(01:06:27):
in the policy shop at the WhiteHouse, and you have to ask yourself,
who the hell is approving these people? Who's hiring these people? Because
it's definitely not Joe Biden. Theworld now knows that. I think that
it is a conglomerate of staff alongwith you know, the Obamas. I
think Susan Rice is still playing arole, particularly as it relates to homeland
security. I think that there's reallyno one person calling the shops. I

(01:06:50):
think it's kind of a free forall over there. All right, Kat
Camick with Us, we got alot to talk about. We're going to
start going through almost a lightning roundset of a of topics next here on
the Morning Show with Preston Scott.The US congress waring Kat Camick with Us
represents Florida's third congressional district, andwe are thrilled to have time with her.

(01:07:13):
Most months when schedule allows kat.I mentioned before the hour that my
system of how I prepare for theshow is there's a handful of guests that
get their own paper clip, andyou you have a jumbo paper clip because
I get stories, and I immediatelywrite in my notes, Kat and I

(01:07:39):
set it to the side, andI said it, so, I've got
this stack of stories because I wantyour insight and thoughts on these stories.
I think they're really really important stories, and vow and I value your opinion,
and so and so. Headline numberone, Immigration judges have thrown out
two hundred thousand deportation cases because Bidenthe administration didn't file paperwork. Yes,

(01:08:10):
I think that that is actually adistraction from the really big story, which
is that the Biden administration is goingafter the DHSIG who uncovered more than four
hundred thousand cases in that same vote. So I think that that is a
watered down version of the really bigstory that's brewing. And if people think

(01:08:31):
that the border situation and the illegalimmigration that we've seen today is bad,
wait until you see what's coming.I have made this statement over the last
couple of weeks that the only conclusionI can reach is that the Biden administration
and the Democrat Party at large.Not all, but most have concluded that

(01:08:53):
losing young girls like Joscelyn Nungary andthe other victims of illegals in this country,
raping, murdering, drunk driving crimesgalore, they've accepted that as collateral
damage to get people in this countryillegally and then registered to vote. Am

(01:09:14):
I far off in your opinion?No? No, I think that this
was a calculated risk on their part. There was a strategy at play during
one hundred and seventeenth Congress where yousaw Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats put forward
HR one, which was for thePeople Act, I call it for the
Politicians Act, and it stripped citizenshiprequirements from being able to vote, and

(01:09:38):
it did everything from getting rid ofphoto ID, no signature verification, and
you have to ask yourself when that'spaired up against the backdrop of an open
border? Well, am I crazyfor thinking that this is a way for
them to forever have control and elections? Because you've heard me say before,
Presdent, I believe that the Democratagenda has always been dependency, and it's

(01:10:00):
not one issue over another. It'salways been about what can we do to
grow the size of governments, makepeople dependent on government programs so that they
ultimately vote in favor of big governmentprograms that then they the swamp preachers control.
They can do that by winning elections. They win elections when they can
add people to the roles. AndI think this is just one of those

(01:10:24):
calculated strategic moves that they made wasHey, an open border. We can
bring in a couple million people andthat should be enough to pad the books.
Curious if you think that there's enoughbackbone in the Republican caucus, and
let's assume that the House and theSenate go to the party and we get

(01:10:45):
Donald Trump back in office as president, is there enough backbone to demand that
the president lower the debt of thisnation. We're having those conversations right now.
You know, you've heard me sayit before. One of the things
that I'm actually proposing to the Trumpcampaign because we're coming to the table on

(01:11:10):
day one with a full agenda,and one of the things that I have
said is this can't be just aDonald Trump thing. This has to be
a locked and loaded, stays inplace part of mandatory on autopilot mechanism.
And for me, I think thedebt being one of the net the biggest
threat to our national security. Ifwe don't lock in a structured debt repayment

(01:11:35):
plan that can only be waived undera congressional declaration of war, I think
that that is going to mean thatwe're not really serious about it. So
we're having those conversations right now.Everyone is very positive about it, but
you and I both know that whenit comes time to drop that voting card
and you know, put your nameon the record, that everyone turns into

(01:11:58):
a bunch of chicken crabs. Uh. And I hope you're proud that I
clean that up. Thank you verymuch for that. Yes, well done.
Sixteen passed the hour more with KatCamick. Next on the Morning Show,
the Lightning Round continues with the CongresswomanKat Camick. Stack of papers here

(01:12:25):
off my desk, and I'm notgoing to get through all of them all
right headline, Social Security will gobankrupt in twenty thirty five, one year
later than prior projections. Can itbe saved, cat Absolutely, But it
requires backbone, and it requires beingultimately the most fair to the people who
have paid in their entire life.It's their money. It's not the government's

(01:12:46):
money. You got to stop ratingit, and government's going to have to
find a new piggybank or I knowthis will come as a shock. Stop
spending money. Yeah, novel ideawe don't have. Well, let me
ask you, maybe I should rephrasethe question other than for those that are
currently in the system and about togo into the system, should it be

(01:13:11):
saved or should we start divesting ourselvesfrom this socialist idea? Yeah, I
think it's worth a debate for sure, Okay, And I hate to give
you that middle of the road answer. No, that's fair. I've heard
from people on both sides. Andat the end of the day, we
have a much bigger problem in Washington, which is that people in DC believe

(01:13:31):
that it's their money, when infact, that is all our money,
we the people, And until wecan really break ourselves of that mindset,
there's no way that we're going tobe able to fix any programs. The
bitter reality though, that I breakthis news to people all the time,
and people email me in shock whenI say it, is that legally,

(01:13:54):
no one is entitled to that money. Congress can just erase it tomorrow legally
because it's not actually a debt,it's not a guarantee. The thing though,
I say to that is I workwith a bunch of cowards, and
no one will actually do something thatcompromises their own reelection. And so that's

(01:14:16):
why I say, you know,at the end of the day, politicians
in DC will do what is favorableto them in the short term, of
course, rather than for the longterm sustainability of the country. But I
mean, I do believe that thatis a contract that we entered into with
the government. The government needs toown up to their side of it.
So you know, I of coursewant to see I want to see the

(01:14:43):
wayte roaden abuse eliminated, and Ithink that there is a way for us
to be smart in going forward.But we've got so many damn problems.
I mean, let's stop sending moneyto Ukraine. How about that. That's
a good start, And then there'sabout a bajillion other programs that we need
to cut in agencies before we startlooking at at the money and the programs

(01:15:04):
that are keeping our seniors alive.I mean, it's my mom's on a
fixed income. It's lappable what shehas to do in order to participate in
that program. And it's just it'sit's silly. Do you have a camera
looking at my desk? Because howdid you know I was going to talk
about an agency that we could eliminate? How did you know that? Because

(01:15:27):
like I know you, Well,here's the next story. The National Institute
of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, weknow now for a fact, did not
just fund gain of function research withthe coronavirus, but has been working on
gain of function research on monkey pocksto make it more fatal than it otherwise

(01:15:51):
would be. And are They're engagingin all kinds of things, and the
beneficiaries are not the American people.Well, it's not even the world,
it's them personally benefiting fiscally from it. What say we just wipe that thing
out and start over. I amwith you one thousand percent, you know,

(01:16:12):
and Ran Paul I have to givehim a hattet because he has been
all over this for years talking aboutthe dangerous experiments, the horrible experiments that
they have done. Effectively, theyplay god and there's no good reason as
to why they should be doing gaina function research. And it's clear that

(01:16:33):
they know they're doing something wrong becauseThey've denied it for so long, and
then finally Fauci says, yeah,we were doing it. Oh and yeah
we made up all the stuff aboutsix feet of social distancing and wearing masks
and all that stuff. Like thesepeople have no idea what they're doing.
They should not be doing gain afunction research. They know that it's illegal,
and so I'm all for defunding thatand starting again. I mean,

(01:16:55):
we just we have seen what happenedas a result and how these multi national
organizations like the who are not actuallylooking out for the world or for health
outcomes. They're completely bought and paidfor by China and our adcessaries. We
need to get our house in order, and it starts with really digging into

(01:17:20):
these agencies, not just NIH,but CDC or SDA. I would love
to take a hatchet to some ofthese and just start chopping away at the
bureaucrafts that have made a ton ofmoney within them. And of course we
could talk to an entire segment pressentabout the absolute failure to protect consumers and

(01:17:44):
Americans. I'm telling you we shoulddo an entire segment on that. I'll
make a note, it'll be onmy stack. Thanks. So much,
Kat, I appreciate your time.Awesome, have a great week guys.
Happy Independence Day. Yes, ma'am, thank you you. Usr I Representative
Kat Cammick with me on the MorningShow with Preston Scott Morn and friends.

(01:18:06):
Appreciate you joining us as always showfivey one and eighty eight here on the
radio program. And I'm not wastingany time because I'm thrilled to have with
us. Brandon Fugel Brandon is chairmanof Colliers International. He is also the
co executive producer of and the ownerof the Skinwalker Ranch, but the executive

(01:18:29):
producer co executive producer of the seriesSecret of Skinwalker Ranch. Brandon Fugel Brandon,
good morning, welcome, How areyou hey doing great? Good morning
from Utah, and it's a pleasureto be with you. I appreciate the
time, of course tonight reminding ourlisteners that we've got another Secret of Skinwalker
Ranch. Perhaps we'll learn more tonightat nine o'clock Eastern, eight o'clock Central.

(01:18:55):
Brandon, when was Skinwalker Ranch onyour radar and why do you decide
to buy it? Well, I'dfirst heard of this mysterious ranch back in
two thousand and five, two thousandand six, there's a book published called
Hunt for the Skinwalker that was publishedby a scientist and an Emmy Award winning

(01:19:17):
journalist, George Knapp, out ofLas Vegas, documenting a scientific investigation of
a property in northeastern Utah. Itwas supposedly the site of more UFO activity,
bizarre cattle mutilations, and strange anomalies, I mean, almost poltergeist like

(01:19:39):
activity. I thought it was intriguingbecause it was in our backyard. It's
about two and a half hours fromSalt Lake City, out in the remote
area the Uenta Basin, in themiddle of tribal lands. But I didn't
really think anything more of it untiltwo scientists brought me the opportunity to meet

(01:20:01):
with this elusive billionaire, Robert BigelowBigelow Aerospace, who'd made his fortune in
real estate and had owned the propertyfor decades and had taken the scientific investigation
of this property very very seriously,to the point that the United States government
had launched a Pentagon funded black budgetprogram focused on the property and using this

(01:20:29):
property. Skinwalker Ranch is really thecenter of gravity for documenting and studying what
many people refer to in general.Ed the phenomena when you mentioned Robert Bigelow.
I think a lot of people knowabout NIDS and the cooperative with the
government. What we don't know iswhat happened. Were you ever able to

(01:20:50):
find out what happened? Yeah.The program ran for years, was tens
of millions of dollars, involved overfifty research scientists, military officials and whatnot,
but was disbanded in twenty thirteen,and for a number of reasons.

(01:21:11):
I think there were several people thatwere uncomfortable in Washington with the subject matter,
and for whatever reason, it wasdisbanded. But a couple of years
later after that, I received acall from these scientists that were advisors who
I had met when I was fundinganother effort in Utah, and they thought

(01:21:40):
I would be a prime candidate tomeet with mister Bigelow and potentially not only
acquire the property but take it forward. I had to point out to them
that I was a skeptic, I'dnever seen a UFO, a ghost or
anything of the sort, and Iwould be buying the property most likely to
debunk it, to bring in myown scientists and investigators to show that there

(01:22:02):
was nothing really to it, thatthere was a natural, prosaic explanation likely
for all that had been reported.So I bought it from mister Bigelow as
a skeptic and was very shocked monthslater to learn that there was truth to
what was being reported there and therest is history. Say say, but

(01:22:27):
I kept my identity secret. Ihad no interest in having my name associated
with these topics. In fact,for four years I invested millions of dollars
into establishing the scientific platforms and theresearch efforts secretly out at this mysterious piece
of property. And it wasn't untilproducers of the History Channel convinced me to

(01:22:51):
allow a docuseries effort to actually presentwhat is happening to the public that I
was persuaded to really come forward.But it was a sobering moment to shift
gears and come forward with the realityof the effort, which remains that a

(01:23:14):
hit series on History Channel. Infact, we're very fortunate to have millions
of year millions of viewers globally aswe're right in the middle of our fifth
season of Revealing, I believe whatis the most compelling evidence of not only
UFO activity, but other high strangenessusing science and technology Brandon Fugel with me.

(01:23:39):
Brandon standby, We got a coupleminutes left with him this morning here
on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. I would lean towards the category of
people that believe that a lot ofthe anomaies surrounding Skinwalker Ranch and a lot
of other places around the world arespiritual and demonic in nature. Brandon Fugal,
owner of the Skinwalker Ranch, coexecutive producer of the series The Secret

(01:24:02):
of Skinwalker Ranch, with us forjust a few more minutes and of course
a new episode tonight at nine o'clockEastern eight o'clock Central. Brandon, has
anyone with the federal government ever reachedout to you, officially or unofficially to
discuss sure. To my surprise,two years into owning the property secretly without

(01:24:24):
identifying my identity as the owner,after we'd taken data and really advanced the
investigation, I was surprised to receivecall from officials in Washington asking me to
fly out with my team to providea full briefing, including data documenting the

(01:24:46):
reality of what we were experiencing.And so we flew out with our team
of scientists and provided a full overviewnot only addressed and provided the video evidence
of UFO activity that have been documentedunder my stewardship, but also some disturbing
things acute medical episodes. Several individuals, unfortunately under my watch, have ended

(01:25:13):
up in the emergency room at thehospital with mysterious illnesses and injuries as a
result of their activity and just beingon the ranch. We've had some bizarre
cattle mutilation events that have occurred historicallyon the property and we've seen that to

(01:25:33):
a degree continue with strange events thathave been documented this year on this most
recent season. But we provided thatfull overview several years after I had purchased
the property, and it was aneye opening exchange and one that underscored the

(01:25:55):
fact that there are many who aretaking it very seriously that our airspace is
being violated by craft objects of unknownorigin, that there is more than meets
the eye going on in our world, and that we truly aren't alone in
the universe. And this investigation,I think is unique in that it not

(01:26:20):
only documents but brings to the publicside in a very transparent way the reality
that we're not alone and these disturbingtopics merit consideration. Brandon last question because
I want to respect your time andI appreciate you carving some time out for
us so early in the morning,especially where you are back in Utah.

(01:26:40):
Thank you very very much. Isthere one thing that you personally have witnessed,
not that the data has shown you, not that video has shown you,
but you've personally seen on the propertythat has confounded you the most.
Yeah, you know. I boughtit as a skeptic. As I've mentioned
earlier, I'd never seen anything likea UFO or an ORB or a ghost

(01:27:04):
or anything of this nature until aboutsix months into purchasing the property. I
was hosting certain dignitaries for what Ibelieved would be just a tour of the
property, which is the secure sitethat has been locked down with armed surveillance
since nineteen ninety six. Well,on that day everything changed for me.

(01:27:30):
I went from being an open mindedskeptic to not just a believer but an
experiencer. When myself and several others, several other witnesses sitting by my side
witnesses appear right in front of usin broad daylight, four o'clock in the
afternoon on October fourteenth, twenty sixteen. What can only be described as a

(01:27:53):
forty to fifty foot long flying saucer, a silver, grayish dislike object that
maneuvered and changed position in ways thatjust defy any conventional explanation. That event,
which was preceded by one gentleman,be rendered catatonic. Our smartphones being

(01:28:15):
drained from us arounds eighty percent tozero, and other electromagnetic anomalies that have
been documented left all of us stunned, and it completely changed my entire trajectory.
And that moment, I went frombeing a skeptic to not a believer,

(01:28:35):
but an experiencer, and that drivesour investigation and this hit docuseries to
this day, and we were reallythankful to have people tuning in following our
journey. My deal with the HistoryChannel is that nothing can be faked,
contrived, manipulated. They have topresent everything as it. I have too

(01:29:01):
much to lose, and I puteverything on the line as far as my
reputation in service to really documenting thereality of the phenomenon and these topics which
fall very far outside of my conventionalbusiness activities within the commercial real estate realm.
So it's been a crazy ride.Brandon, You are welcome anytime I

(01:29:25):
can convince you to come back onthe show. I'd love to have more
time with you. But thank youso much for the time we've had this
morning, and best of success toyou. You got it, Hey,
tune in and know the truth isout there. Look forward to having you
follow on our investigation. Thank you, sir. Brandon Fugel with us and
again it's the Secret of Skinwalker Ranch. Latest episode tonight, nine o'clock Eastern,

(01:29:49):
eight o'clock Central on the History Channel. Not much time here, ran
a little along with Brandon, butI'm sure you can understand why I did,
right, I mean, come on, you got the owner of Skinwalker

(01:30:10):
Ranch. Come on, come onand Brandon, if you're still listening on
iHeartRadio and I know that now youare probably a member of the ruminator class
of this program. That's nothing tolaugh at, sir. Now, thank
you very much for joining us.Those are new guys, just everyone knows.
Yeah, that's that's him. That'sthat's him the NNG. That's what

(01:30:34):
they we call him around here atthe NNG. Anyway, Tomorrow J D.

Allen back on the program that's tomorrowin the show brought to you by Barno
Heating and Air. It's the morningshow one on WFLA. Man, I

(01:30:57):
don't know what you do to betoday, not seriously. I've done eighty
eight shows now that one's top ten. Between the exceptional nature of our guests
in the third hour and me beingreally on my game today, which does
not always happen. I'm very realisticabout my self appraisal. Sometimes I am

(01:31:23):
like mediocre, really bad. Butnot today today on the game, folks,
I was on it fire. No. The stories. Look, the
stories were such that they just ledto I think analysis and discussion and more.
