Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Hey, good morning. Welcome to Wednesday, June eleventh. Here on
the Morning Show with breast At Scott. It is a
show fifty three to ninety five. I'm breast At. The's
ose great to be with you as we hit the
middle of the week, spend some time together. We're going
to start with the verse we started with yesterday, but

(00:31):
we're going to just add to it. Yesterday we were
in Colossians three. We started in verse twelve. Put on then,
as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness,
and patience, bearing with one another, and if one has

(00:52):
a complaint against another, forgiving each other. As the Lord
has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. Now we're
gonna add verse fourteen says and above all of these,
put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.

(01:17):
We're gonna stop there, put on love. It's an interesting
choice of words that the translators use there. I mean,
think of the literal expression there for just a second.
Put on What do we do? We put on clothing,

(01:40):
put on a jacket or a sweater, put on shoes.
We we sometimes put on a happy face, even when
we're not necessarily happy so that we don't depress other people, right,
I mean, don't we Okay, So what is being said there?

(02:05):
How do you put on love? Allow me to help
you frame it this way. Putting something on is an
act of intentionality. You reach to grab a jacket to
put it on, You are intentionally doing it. You intentionally

(02:29):
put on your shoes, your belt, You intentionally put on
whatever it might be. And what scripture I think is
telling us is that we have to have intent and
put on love with intent. You might have heard me
say this over the years. I do not always like

(02:54):
my children, but I always love them because I choose to.
They might make a choice, and when they were younger,
they certainly made choices that I was like, wish you
hadn't done that. Didn't like it. But guess what. Never

(03:17):
is there a moment I don't love my children. We
have five children. I love them all. I choose to
love them all. There is an intentionality, But but there's another.
There's another point inside this verse put on love, which

(03:39):
binds everything together. Let's let's now see. I like to
think of things like this and draw an analogy from
something else. In cooking, you you sometimes cook things and
you you need something, You need need an agent to

(04:00):
bind things together, because if you don't, then the various
ingredients and things that you have, they stay broken apart,
and so you need a binding agent to bind it together.
When you bake something, you need a binding agents. It's

(04:21):
usually eggs or something like that that binds all of
the different ingredients together to then create something that tastes good. Right, Okay,
So what's being bound together here? Humility, kindness, meekness, patience,
the ability to bear with one another, and if one

(04:41):
as a complaint forgiving, how is all of that bound
together through an intentional act called love? You choose to
love people. You choose to do that. It's your choice.

(05:01):
So that's our verse of the day. Ten past the hour.
That was good. That was good. Thank you God. What
a good word scripture. It's a good verse Colossians three.
All right, ten past the hour. Dive into the American
Patriots Almanac. Next, take a look at the National Day
of and more as we start Wednesday here on the

(05:22):
Morning Show with Preston Scott. The Morning Show with Preston Scott. Yesterday,
it was kind of the exhale end of the day,

(05:44):
my wife was home from being with one of our
kids and their newborn little girl and our granddaughters had
a rough go of it to start her little life.
And so my wife is is helping out at the

(06:06):
hospital and she came home and I coughed a little bit,
and I said, you know this, this this is lingering
a little bit. She just looked at me and went,
you think I've had this now for about a month
I had the actual cold, and now it's in its

(06:26):
fourth week of Okay, so it's been it's been taking
a little bit to get all the congestion out of
the chest. But anyway, I'm feeling fine. I just I
still have the little junkiness there. But anyway, I hope
you're doing well today. June eleventh, seventeen seventy six, Continental

(06:48):
Congress appoints a committee to draft the Declaration of Independence.
No small task is that to come up and formulate
the words to say to a government that thinks they
own you, I'm sorry, we're done now, and then consider

(07:15):
in this something I'm going to touch on next hour.
There's a story in the news that I thought was
really kind of illuminating as it relates to the formation,
the foundation of this country, the constitution man. The brilliance
of those minds stands the test of time and again
I'll explain later. Let's see eighteen fifty nine, the Comstock

(07:39):
silver Load is discovered in Nevada. Eighteen ninety five, Charles
Derea receives the first US patent for a gasoline powered automobile.
That's a name, you don't know. It's associated with a
gasoline powered automobile. Charles Derea, nineteen nineteen. Sir Barton wins

(07:59):
the Bell Mind after earlier wins on the Kentucky at
the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness, becoming the first horse
to claim the Triple Crown, Sir Barton, nineteen nineteen. And
in nineteen sixty three, another story that will find its
way back into the news in a contemporary fashion. Here today,

(08:19):
Alabama Governor Democrat George Wallace stands in front of an
auditorium door at the University of Alabama in an attempt
to block the enrollment of two black students. Forrest Gump
was there, just pointing out Democrat governor, just saying that'll

(08:43):
be something we touch on today. Today is also a
national corn on the cob day. Corn on the cob
is a brilliant side dish or si it is, And
I'll tell you what you do if you've never been

(09:05):
to Cousha's. It was featured on Guy Fieri's show, and
we talked about it here diners, drive ins and dives.
It's it's Louisiana food, Louisiana Cajun food. But he has
his own seasoning that you can buy at the store,

(09:28):
a little shaker thing of it, Cousha's seasoning. Put your
put your melted butter on your hot corn on the cob,
and and shake some Couchha's on it. You have yourself
some spectacular corn on the cob.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
It's National German Chocolate Cake Day and it's National Making
Life Beautiful Day, just making life beautiful. So I decided
that in the spirit of it all, I would do
a haiku ephemeral moments, Nature's simple, soft embrace, Beauty's gentle touch.

Speaker 3 (10:22):
M m.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
Yeah, you're welcome, little haiku to start your day here.
People on news sites can grab my attention if they
know how to write a headline. Now, bad headlines can

(10:53):
grab your attention as well. You know, at least they
do me. But if you want to earn my trust,
you're right. Good headlines and this one just immediately I
was drawn in. Here's the headline. Mystery of America's Lost
Colony may finally be solved after four hundred and forty years.

(11:18):
Archaeologists say now putting lost Colony in quotes immediately told
me what we were dealing with, the Lost Colony of Roanoke.
The backstory here is one of the most enduring mysteries

(11:44):
of all time. Where did the settlers of the Roanoke
Colony go? It's called the Lost Colony. It was the
first English settlement attempt in what is now the United States.
A group of more than one hundred colonists settled in
North Carolina's Roanoke Island in fifteen eighty seven, led by

(12:08):
Sir Walter Raleigh. John White, the governor of the colony,
returned to England for supplies in fifteen eighty seven. When
he came back to Roanoke Island in August of fifteen ninety,
and that in and of itself is an amazing story,

(12:29):
he found the settlement completely abandoned. All the colonists, including
his daughter Eleanor Dare, and his granddaughter Virginia Dare. Virginia
Dare was the first English born citizen of this continent

(12:51):
of America. I should say the only clue written on
a palisade with a fence post, if you will, that
that kind of guarded the colony carved in was a
word Crowatin. That's it.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
Now.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
It either referred to the what is known as the
Roanoke Island, which was at that point known as Crowatin
Island because it was named for the Indian tribe that
was in the area, the Crowatin Indian tribe, and so
crowatone either referred to the to the island which is
now called sorry Hatteras Island, or the Crowatin Indians. So

(13:47):
they they went to a neighboring island or not, No
one knows. Archaeologists have found excavating what is what is
now Has Island. They have found what they believe is
proof that the English settlers ended up going to Croatoan

(14:13):
Island and assimilated into the Indian tribe and lived out
their lives. There have long been records of blue eyed,
hazel eyed people among the Indians, clothing that was absolutely
from Europe. But what really sent it over the edge

(14:36):
in terms of clinching the story in the minds of
these archaeologists, which oh, by the way, or from the UK,
is metal shavings that come from blacksmithing, and that technology
was not known to Indians at the time it was
brought over from Europe. And they found evidence of basically

(14:59):
blacksmith work shavings if you will, called hammer scale, and
they were located in layers of sediment that indicates a
time frame consistent with the lost colony. Now, they said,
obviously this is going to end the mystery. There are

(15:20):
people that just won't believe it, that this is the answer,
that that's what happened. But they believe that the colonists
ended up going from where they were to where the
Crowatoin Indians were, and that they left that note signaling that.

(15:44):
But now here's where it gets really interesting. Don't have
time to go into it. Before Amelia Earhart disappeared, she
was writing a journal and about her travels around the world.

(16:06):
Her last entry was one word crow atoin. It's crazy.
There are little there are little snippets throughout history where
that word shows up. It's crazy.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
It is.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
So is the mystery solved? Don't know, but it sure
is an interesting story. Twenty seven minutes past the hour,
Come back, Big Stories in the press Box. Next here
on The Morning Show with Preston Scott, Good Morning, consider
him your truth Detector. The Morning Show with Preston Scott
on News Radio one hundred point seven WUFLA. I had

(16:57):
a discussion yesterday with my brother and sister in law life.
We were just sitting around the table talking about COVID
and what happened to America, what happened to students. A
sister in law is a guidance counselor at a school

(17:19):
outside Columbus, and she just talked about the impact that
it had on kids, no doubt, and we all agreed
that the American medical profession has been sullied. And this
is the first hint of somebody other than you and

(17:44):
me recognizing the need to reboot the medical community. The
Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Junior, has,
in essence, fired every single member of the CDC Vaccine

(18:07):
Advisory Panel. They have all been said thank you for
your service, we don't need you anymore. They are being replaced.
Here's what he said. A clean sweep is necessary to
re establish public confidence in vaccine science. To any of

(18:30):
you that were reticent about Kennedy taking this position because
of his position in favor of abortion in certain circumstances,
I understand that. But if you remember my pushback, it
was the federal government has no say on abortion. It's
out of his world, and the good that he'll do

(18:54):
outweighs whatever opinions he has because he can't enact policy
dealing with abortion. This has to do with the medical community.
And he said that new members will prioritize public health

(19:15):
and evidence based science will no longer function as a
rubber stamp for industry profit taking agendas. This is good
news for American the American health system, the accepted practices

(19:37):
that we have been sucked into like a frog and
the boiling water. Just gradually the heat turns up and
you never know, oh, you're being boiled alive. You don't
even know it is sitting in there. So this is
a step in the right direction, and this is very good.

(20:01):
We still need medical professionals across the country to apologize
and say we were wrong. The science did not support
the vaccine protocols that we engaged in. We're sorry, We'll
forgive you whether we'll listen to you moving forward is

(20:24):
another issue. Then. The second big story here this morning
is DOZE. It's continuing to work the Department of Government
efficiency with or without Elon Musk. A program that it
introduced this year has resulted in the cancelation of more

(20:45):
than six hundred and ten thousand federal credit cards. In
fourteen weeks. It has discovered more than four point six
million million agency credit cards. It's now looking at fifty

(21:06):
five agencies so far, and so we've got six hundred
and ten thousand so far deactivated. It adds up, it
adds up forty minutes after that. Those are your big
stories this morning here in the Morning Show. This is

(21:30):
the Morning Show with Preston Scott. I got an email
from a listener that got me to do some digging.
Tim wrote me said, I'm amazed with the criticism directed
at the President for calling up the Guard and the Marines.
In August nineteen sixty seven, I was eating breakfast in

(21:52):
the mess hall at my army's one hundred and first
Airborne Division when the battalion supply officer came up and
told our supply officer to go to the supply point
pick up live ammunition. Twelve hours later, I was in
the lead unit going to the riot torn area of Detroit, Michigan.
We quickly took control of the area and brought law

(22:13):
and order back. The people living there were thrilled to
have us there. As an aside, it was the first
time someone took a shot at me and I had
been in the army three months fresh out of FSU
as a second lieutenant. First of all, Tim, thank you
for serving our country. But I want to point out

(22:35):
that as I looked at the history of military deployments
in US cities throughout this country post Civil War, so
we set aside the Civil War, right you and I
found so far and I and let me stayed upfront.

(22:55):
For any haters out there, I could be missing a
situation or two, but so far, every single time the
militaries had to be deployed to a city in this
country to bring law and order back, it's been a
Democrat run city and a Democrat run state every single time.

(23:21):
In the Deep South when the clan was operating, now
it's Clantifa, Then it was Ku klu Klux Klan, it's
its Democrat runs cities and states. The South was dominated
and run completely by Democrats. Democrats was the party of
the Klan. Still is the riots during Rodney King Los Angeles,

(23:53):
George Floyd Minneapolis, Saint Paul Los Angeles Democrat Democrat. Now
these riots and a Democrats. I just you've got this,
this perfect storm of Clantifa extremists with BLM, anti dose

(24:17):
fire bombers, Palestinian terrorists, supporters, ice haters. Next time it'll
be something else, could be code pink, could be Pete
good to dounenberget dat you And it's the same people.

(24:43):
They just they they just they're in a spin cycle.
They just go from one riot to the next. It's
a it. Who was it? Guy Benson a town hall said,
it's all one unicause the common theme hating America, soothing America.

(25:07):
Hillary Clinton out there posting nonsense. You know what's interesting
about all this? This is an observation that Guy Benson
made that I had not picked up on. They use
this Nazi imagery trying to suggest that Trump and Trump
supporters are Nazis. Right, But it's interesting because the groups

(25:28):
deploying them seem to be great fans of killing Jews.
Isn't that interesting? They and what does that then do
It goes back to something I have been teaching, Yes
for twenty three years. They are what they accuse others

(25:54):
of being. They can use all the hate rhetoric they want,
they can put all the Nazi swastikas out they want.
They are literally labeling and branding themselves because it was
Hitler that had the final solution and it's these people

(26:15):
that believe in all of the same arguments. Hillary Clinton
stepped into it, calling these peaceful demonstrations that it's Trumps
that's stirring up the trouble. No Trump sending the National
Guard in Marines because the police chief of Los Angeles said,

(26:39):
it's reached a tipping point. We can't do this, we
can't handle it. The chief of Police of Los Angeles,
They've had days of violence. It's always interesting. Hillary Clinton
made the post and then she disabled comments on her
page because that's what lefties Doty sive seven minutes after

(27:00):
the hour. An apology coming up next, well, at least
sort of one.

Speaker 2 (27:07):
I'm just.

Speaker 1 (27:10):
Knock knock, who's nash on w FLA tim who sent
me that note about going into Detroit. He knows this audience.
My apologies. It was actually the end of July when

(27:31):
we entered Detroit. We returned to Fort Campbell in August.
I'm sure a listener will correct. Well, Tim, you did.
You're the listener who corrected. It's your story anyway, But again,
thanks for writing and sharing. I mentioned an apology, sort of.
I guess Simone Biles got pulled to the side and said,

(27:54):
and someone said, you're wrong. You stepped in it, girlfriend,
and this could cost you a lot of money. Maybe
it was her husband, Maybe it was Jonathan Owens used
to play for the Green Bay Packers, now for the

(28:14):
Chicago Bears step Bears. She offered an apology to Riley Gaines.
I wanted to follow up in my last tweets. I've
always believed competitive equity and inclusivity are both essential and sport.
The current system doesn't adequately balance these important principles, which

(28:38):
often leads to frustration and heated exchanges. It didn't help
for me, and blah blah blah blah blah, So she apologized.
Riley Gaines. I accept Simone's apology for the personal attacks,
including ones where she body shamed me. I know she
knows what this feels like. She's still the greatest female
gymnast of all time, and then she added this is

(29:00):
Riley Gaines. Sports are inclusive by nature, anyone can and
everyone should play sports. Competition, on the other hand, and
by definition, is exclusive, so the idea of competitive equity
is nonsensical. Secondly, boys are publicly humiliating the girls. To

(29:23):
suggest that women and girls must be silent and ignore
a boy who is publicly hurting or humiliating them is wrong.
You can't have any empathy or compassion for the girls
if you're ignoring when young men are harming or abusing them.
I'm not ashamed to be a voice for the voiceless.
She goes on to say, I agree with you that

(29:45):
the blame is on lawmakers and leaders at the top.
Precisely why I'm suing the NCAAA and support candidates who
vow to stand with women. That's why I join President
Trump at the signing of his executive order, which, by
the way, she was on her show that day. I'm
just saying live on the show, I didn't see you

(30:06):
there or championing this effort with your platform. Women's sports
can't be used as an excuse for girls to center
the feelings in validation of men and boys. I welcome
you to the fight to support fair sports and future
female athletes. Little girls deserve the same shot to achieve

(30:26):
that you had. So the feud might be over, but
the conversation obviously should continue. So will there now be

(30:46):
a slow epiphany for Simone Biles. I want all of
these people to meet the little girl that is now
living with paralysis because she was spiked in the face
by a male competitor pretending to be a female. She
can't play sports ever again. I want Simone and others

(31:11):
to meet her, to meet girls that have lost scholarships
because of this. Second hour of the Morning Show with
Preston Scott is next. This is the second hour of

(31:41):
the Morning Show with Preston Scack in Morning Friends, ruminators,
ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, males and females only.
Thank you for sharing time with us. Next hour, doctor
Bob McClure, James Madison Institute will join us and we
will be joined by Brandon Arnold, EXECUTI Vice President of
the National Taxpayers Union, So we'll be having a three

(32:04):
way conversation. I don't do those very often, but because
we've got one in studio, one on the phone, it'll
be easy for you to discern who is who. And
that's generally the reason why I don't now if I
had Charlie and jd in here. Their voices are so
uniquely different. Piece of cake. But multiple guests can be

(32:25):
tricky on the radio because I have to constantly reset
who's talking, and it takes up time. So next hour
kind of a unique at least first half hour of
the of the third hour of the show came across
this this Jim Hoft from Gateway Pundit, and he's commenting

(32:51):
on The New York Times has produced a what it
calls an investigative article on the attempted assassin of of Trump,
whose name we will never ever use. We're among the
only that we'll take that position, and it's sad that
we are alone for the most part nationally on this issue.

(33:12):
I think Megan Kelly is the only other person of
any you know that I know that has some kind
of national following. You know, we're just a little talk
show host here, but anyway, and the Times is trying
to suggest that, yeah, you know, we know what we

(33:34):
need to know, and Hoff correctly points out, we don't
know anything. And I hate to say this, but there's
a part of me that's a little worried Dan Bongino's
had the kool aid because he's out there saying, you know,
if there was anything more to this story, we to
let you know. I don't agree with that, and I

(33:56):
don't believe that. And here's why, because Trump doesn't know.
Trump said he doesn't know anything he's not been told.
Here's why I don't believe it. Because we still don't
have the truth about Martin Luther King Jr. And John F.

(34:18):
Kennedy's assassinations. We don't have the truth yet. And we've
been promised the truth on these things and we're not
getting it. We don't have the truth on the Epstein stuff.
Why now there's some trying to say, well, because Trump's

(34:38):
in it. I don't think Trump's in it. I think
other members that are sitting in Congress are in it.
I think other very influential people are in it. But
what the New York Times is reporting, and they talk
about the relationship and his dad, the shooter's dad, and

(34:59):
the the shooter's dad, it's like he's saying, you know,
he was displaying symptoms of this that and the other.
And if I'm not mistaken, the shooter's dad is like
a psychiatrist, psychologist, he's a counselor. He's I mean, and
so what were you doing giving your son a gun
if he had been displaying these symptoms for a year,

(35:20):
if he'd been withdrawing for a year. I mean, here's
what I can tell you from the still unsettled issue
of offshore bank accounts. And by the way, who broke that?

(35:41):
Tim Walls then a member of Congress? Is Tim Walls
involved in government anymore? He was pushed out as a
national security advisor, just saying, but there is information the

(36:04):
Pennsylvania State Police records are quote classified. Since when there's
supposed to be public records, this doesn't make sense. And

(36:24):
Dan Bongino telling us, trust me, there's nothing more to it.
I don't believe that. I just don't. Where's the evidence
that there's nothing more to it? Prove it and I'll
be fine. But I just I wanted to make sure
that you don't forget. We don't have answers yet. Is

(36:52):
this a continuation of the mk ultra program? Was this
young man a den of years ago and quietly systematically
groomed and the deterioration mentally that his father observed. Was
it part of this program? And then what why dad

(37:17):
just suddenly decided I'm going to give my son the
opportunity to buy an AR fifteen from me. I don't know.
This is the same son that bragged about cooking turkey
with dad and bacon cookies with mom, and families everything,
and all of a sudden, he's trying to shoot and
kill the president, the elected, the would be president of
the United States. Doesn't make any sense, friends, This doesn't

(37:42):
make any sense. Why we don't have answers. But add
it to the list of things we don't know. Eleven
passed the hour. There's some things we do know, and
I'll get to some of that next. This is the
Morning Show with Preston Scott. Inside the same story by

(38:12):
Jim Hoft, here a couple of things we do know.
According to the story in The Times, shortly before eleven
PM on the night of the shooting, the shooter's father
calls nine to one one saying he hadn't seen his
son since that afternoon. The call is recorded. We've gotten

(38:34):
no contact from him, no text messages, nothing's been returned,
and he's not home yet, he explains that's totally not
like him. So we're kind of worried. We're not really
sure what we should do. Hoft writes the following Does
anyone find this contact bizarre? First, the shooter's twenty two
years old, a man that tends college, has a job,

(38:55):
and has been shooting at the gun range every week
for a year, including Christmas Day. But on this day
Dad suddenly concerned. What is concerning is the way this
conversation is happening. Did Dad call the gun range to
find out what time his son made it to the range?

(39:17):
Did Dad try calling the son's mobile phone, and if so,
how many times? Why isn't this information part of the
nine to one to one call? Something on the lines of, Hey,
we've repeatedly called and texted our son on his mobile
and he's not responding. Instead, it's this weird. We've gotten
no contact from him, nothing's been returned. Does the father
mean the gun Did the nine one one operator just

(39:40):
decide not to ask if the family had tried to
call or text their son's mobile something along the lines
of when did you try to contact your son? But
better still, why isn't the New York Times asking for proof,
the father tried calling his son that day, you know,
something along the lines of getting the father's phone record
for that day. Crickets. But one must wonder what exactly

(40:05):
the relationship was between the son and his family. According
to the Times, the parents advised that the shooter loved
building things like computers, visiting the gun range, and we
know that he loved cooking with his family. But when asked,
the father said he didn't know anything about his son.
Of course, this isn't true. He knew his son well

(40:28):
enough to reportedly sell him an AR fifteen. There's more here.
I'm not suggesting that there's any reason to implicate the
father in this in any way, shape or form, other
than he's not being forthright with his comments to at

(40:51):
least the media or what he said to officials during
the nine to one one call or what have you,
because it just doesn't add up, just doesn't. Al Qaeda's
leader calling on Muslims in America to launch terror attacks
and assassinate Trump in his cabinet. I didn't even know

(41:13):
al Qaedas still existed. Thirty four minute video. Apparently we've
got a six million dollar bounty on this guy's head.
I'll not well, I'll go ahead, said Alwaukirikohla, calling on

(41:38):
the four point five million Muslims living in America to
carry out lone wolf style assassinations in the name of revenge.
They could about every Muslim in the infidel criminal edugant
United States. It doesn't matter if they are Arab, American
or other descent. What matters is they are Muslim and
they're brother to Mahmid. I'm saying to all of them,

(41:59):
revenge and do not consult to anyone about killing infidel Americans.
You should have a lot of determination. The list of
your targets should be effective. Let's just get a little intel.
Let's turn Seale Team six loose. Let's just end this
man's life. Done done, let him go see his virgins.

(42:27):
Seventeen minutes past the hour, come back and some interesting
sound revealing the disarray inside the Democrat Party. Here's what's interesting.

(42:52):
This piece of sound comes from Politico. Credit where credit
is due, and it's the current chair of the Democrat
National Committee, Ken Martin. The DNC is ready to redo

(43:16):
their votes for vice chair. They're pushing David hog out.
Calin Free, a Native American attorney claims that the bylaws
of the party were not honored regarding gender diversity. See,
this is the nonsense that you Democrats are signed up

(43:36):
for by being a registered Democrat. You support this, you
are all in on it. Don't tell me you're trying
to change it, because you're not. And I don't blame you,
because you'll be threatened. You'll be attacked, you'll be called out.

(43:59):
If you own a business, it'll be threatened. And so
listen to this phone conversation. It's not really it's a
conference call, and there are a lot of people on board,
including Ken Martin and David Hogg. Hey.

Speaker 3 (44:18):
Look, it has plenty awards and we're all trying to
change those for sure. But the longer we continue this fight,
the harder it is for us to actually do what
we all want to do, which is make a difference
in this country. Again, so I deeply respect you, David.
I too was looking forward to working with you, but

(44:38):
this has created a situation and I'll be very honest
with you for the first time in my hundred days
on this job.

Speaker 1 (44:45):
In Jessica Osis, let's just pause here. This he's talking
about is David working outside the party and saying I'm
going to primary Democrats. I'm gonna do what I want
raising money for other people.

Speaker 3 (45:04):
The other night I said to myself for the first time,
I don't know if I want to do this anymore,
and partly not because of the stress and all the naysayers. Right,
I'm used to that. I've spent fourteen years as a chair.
I'm used to get and beat up on.

Speaker 2 (45:18):
But you know, is this is really.

Speaker 3 (45:23):
Everything you know from this election, this credentials report, and
how Malcolm's been treated in this too. You know the
fact the election itself, how shasty and gino we're treated
in this. I'm just quite frustrated to be in this
position because what you've done, whether you like it or not,

(45:44):
or know it or not, David, is I'm trying to
No one knows who the hell I am, right, I'm
trying to get my sea legs underneath me and actually
develop any amount of credibility so I can go out
there and raise the money and do the job I
need to to put our sell us in a position
to win. And again, I don't think you intended this,
but you essentially destroyed any chance I have to show

(46:07):
the leadership that I need to. So it's really frustrating.

Speaker 1 (46:16):
What a hot mess this is the leader of the
National Democratic Party. You essentially destroyed any chance I have.
They got no message, they have no leadership, they have
no agenda. One of its iconic cities, Los Angeles, is

(46:40):
literally burning to the ground. The only common thread they
have woven between all of them is this Trump is bad,
when the reality is Trump is actually doing things that

(47:02):
a whole lot of Democrats love. He's taking on the establishment.
Just thought it would be interesting for you to hear
what's going on inside the party, and that again courtesy
of Politico. Thank you Politico, you put the sound out.
I didn't wasn't our side. Wasn't a secret investigative reporter

(47:28):
rolling tape that got in the call. No, this was
leak to Politico by Democrats. So you now have to
sit back and say, Okay, well, what's their angle on
leak in this? Twenty seven minutes past the hour, Let's
do the big stories in the press box and more
next here on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. I

(47:52):
probably should set aside time for those of you just
joining us, and you've never ever heard this radio program. Hi,
I'm just rolling in here, and you're like, what is this?
What's going on here? That's Jose say, good morning, sir, Oh,

(48:16):
good morning, sir. Thank you. There you go. Jose runs
the radio show and I'm Preston. It's the Morning Show
with Preston Scott. I think we need to do a
segment sometime where I ask you if you trust your
doctor and if and under what circumstances do you relent

(48:40):
and go see your doctor. Did COVID shake your relationship
with your doctor? Did you switch doctors? Because and I'm
not asking you to name doctors, We're not ever going
to do that. That's not the point. I want to
know how many of you feel as I do that

(49:03):
generally speaking, the general physician, family physician doctors out there
have a massive confidence issue they have to overcome. With
most of us, maybe not all, there are some. This
was again, it was a very interesting, robust discussion yesterday

(49:26):
with my brother and sister in law and my wife
and I my wife and me.

Speaker 3 (49:37):
It was.

Speaker 1 (49:39):
It was a discussion of well, people didn't know any
better that were on the other side of this, to
which I say, well why, and I pointed out I'm
holding a grudge. I'm holding a grudge against the me

(50:00):
medical profession, and I'm I'm I'm bothered by the fact. First,
I mean, I'll tell you it. It hurt a little
bit that I had people trying to suggest that I
was responsible for the death of people in the radio
audience because I simply pointed out that the vaccine didn't

(50:21):
didn't stop the coronavirus. It couldn't. There's never been one
I was right. I was scientifically one hundred percent right. Then.
I was one hundred percent right during it. I was
one hundred percent right in the rearview mirror looking back,
I was right. I was right about masks. I was.
And it's not I because I'm so smart. It was

(50:42):
because I took the time to know and read. Here's
why I'm bringing all this up as a big story
in the press box. Robert F. Kennedy Junior, the Secretary
of Health and Human Services, has removed every single member
of the CDC Vaccine Advisory paneling him a clean sweep
is necessary to re establish public confidence in vaccine science. Now,

(51:08):
he went further than that, but that will suffice. He
is recognizing what I have been saying since COVID. The
medical community has been damaged dramatically by COVID and their
unwillingness to say I was wrong. There are still people
getting annual COVID shots and they might be contributing to

(51:30):
their own death. We finally have doctor Robert Redfield admitting
he was in He was I think he was in
charge of the CDC was. He's finally admitting that at
least twenty percent of his patients it's due to the vaccine,
that they were harmed by the vaccine.

Speaker 2 (51:52):
We have the.

Speaker 1 (51:53):
Mortician reports, the coroner reports talking about the number of
blood clots that they are dealing with in people that
are dead. Did it cause their death? Maybe, maybe not,
We don't know. We do know COVID did not cause
even a fraction of the deaths that it's attributed to
it or that are attributed to it, because they called

(52:17):
everything a COVID death. If you had COVID, you died
of COVID, and it's just just it's fraudulent, it's untrue.
And so my question is, and this isn't for you
to call in or write in or anything. We'll do
a segment sometime on this. I think this is absolutely
necessary by Robert F. Kennedy Junior. You have to start somewhere,

(52:42):
and if they won't admit they were wrong, you kick
them out and you just simply say we're going to
do it differently. And by kicking them all out, you
have said, as the secretary, they were wrong. What they
did and how they did it, they were wrong. And
I can tell you, and I think the one thing
that makes me so mad is that I'm not a

(53:06):
college graduate. I didn't specialize at any of this. How
is it possible that I knew the science of this
better than they did people in the profession because they
were bullied, they were threatened with their jobs, and shame
on the profession. I said it then, and I'm gonna
say it now until as a group, until the AMA,

(53:28):
until these medical organizations apologize to the doctors that stood strong,
apologize and apologize to the public for misleading and being wrong.
But they won't do that. Here's why they don't want
to be sued. I know I've got a little long here.

(53:48):
It's okay, forty two minutes, forty one minutes, forty two
minutes past the hour. It's the Morning Show. It's the
Morning Show with President Scott earlier in the show, and
this points to why we do the show the way

(54:10):
that we do it. We don't just stay on a
topic all day long for the most I mean, I
can count on my hand the number of times we've
done that in twenty three plus years, where we've just
this topic has been it a hurricane, a terrorist attack,
something like that, where that's it, that's all we got.

(54:31):
But we jump around a little bit. And I mentioned
earlier how I was going to illustrate the genius of
our founders, whose bobbleheads I have littering my studio here.
I have the Founding Fathers. I have a few others
as well, and in fact I do have a I
have four bobbles that are set up to mimic Mount Rushmore,

(55:00):
but around them are the founders. And I saw this
story about the collapse of the Dutch government. Collapse of
the government. Listen to this and consider now what our
founders put together here in this country, and even with

(55:21):
the dysfunction of Washington. But just consider our elected process,
how we form a government. Guy named gart Wilders, he
is the head of the Party for Freedom. He's not elected.
He's like the leader of the Democrat Party or the
leader of the Republican Party, but he carries a tremendous

(55:43):
amount of clout. He pulled out of a governing coalition
last week because they will not stop illegal immigration, and
because they would not agree to that, he said we're out.
And because he pulled out, the entire government collapsed. Even

(56:06):
though that party and those lawmakers that make up Parliament
members whatever they're called, make up just a portion of it,
the whole thing collapsed. You've got a guy Prime Minister,
Dick Shouff, who's not elected. He's not elected, he was

(56:26):
just kind of put in charge. And so Shoof is
handing his resignation in or did to King Willem Alexander
last week. The Party for Freedom known as PVV is
out of the cabinet. This is going to lead to

(56:47):
new elections. So you've got the centrist New Social Contract Party.
You've got the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy. You've
got the Citizens Movement, which of course is called the BBB,
the Former Citizens Movement bb whatever. You've got the leader

(57:11):
of the Labor Green Combination. So you look at all
of this and you go, well, that's untenable. So as
bad as things get around here. We don't have that.
We don't have what happens in the UK. Our founders

(57:36):
were brilliant in putting together a governing system. It relied
on strong states. Sadly, we've allowed the national federal government
to grow too big and too controlling. Federalism is what
the founders had in mind. Though they weren't all agreeing

(57:59):
on on just what that looked like. They left us
with a framework to get it right. We just haven't
done it quite yet. But look at the alternatives. Look
at what's happening in the Netherlands. What a train wreck.
Forty seven minutes after the hour going to come back.

(58:21):
Big investment coming to Pennsylvania dub UFLA. Fifty two minutes
passed the hour, got a call from a listener asking
a very fair question, and that is as a federalism supporter,
which of course is about states' rights, did you support

(58:44):
do you support Trump sending the military into Los Angeles?
The answer is wholeheartedly absolutely, because federal agents are being
prevented from doing their job and dealing with immigration, illegal
immigrants in this country. And I am of the firm
conviction that the people of Los Angeles and the Greater
California are grateful that help is coming because they can't

(59:09):
deal with it and are not dealing with it, evidenced
by what's unfolded. And so when a state's actions interfere
with a federal matter, absolutely it's the justification for sending
military in a handful of circumstances throughout history in this country.

(59:31):
And again, as I pointed out each time that I
have found so far, and there could be exceptions, but
certainly the rule at this point is they're all Democrats,
cities and states throughout history going back decades when this
has happened, and I've looked it up. I spent some
time on this. So anyway to stay for whatever it's worth.

(59:57):
Amazon twenty billion dollar investment, the largest corporate investment in
the history of Pennsylvania. They are investing twenty billion dollars
in Salem Township and Falls townships first sites for campuses,

(01:00:20):
though there are other communities being considered. Twelve hundred and
fifty new high skilled jobs, supporting thousands more throughout the
data center supply chain, and they're expanding their artificial intelligence
infrastructure and cloud computing technologies. What I want to point

(01:00:42):
out is this is another win for the Trump administration.
Even in the midst of all of the tariffs back
and forth and the uncertainty over what is allowed and
what is not, what Congress needs to do, what the
president can do, what he can't do, court rulings, suspended
court rule, all of it. What is absolutely abundantly clear

(01:01:04):
is the general philosophies of the Trump administration encourage investment
in this country. They encourage repatriating money back to this country.
They encourage outside investment in this country. You see, Now,
there's subtle little things. I came across an ad for BMW.

(01:01:27):
BMW the automaker, promoting that this specific car, I think
it's their X series, proudly made in America. You have
more and more auto manufacturers saying making commitments to build.
You have more and more foreign companies investing here. Why

(01:01:49):
because they're like, you know, Trump's kind of right about this,
and we might as well go ahead and build there,
invest there, hire there because we don't get hit with
the tariffs. We employ people there. It's a win win win.
Why not proving once again that the Barack Obama pronouncement

(01:02:11):
that manufacturing our jobs are gone and they're not coming back.
Which he said in two thousand and eight two thousand
and nine was wrong. It was. It was cataclysmically wrong.
So all right, when we come back more on on Trump,
on the tax bill, on the big beautiful bill. That's

(01:02:33):
stay with us. Thank you, one of friends. Welcome to
the third hour of the Morning Show with Preston Scott's
great to be with you as always. Here Wednesday, June eleventh,
and show fifty three to ninety five. Hose running the

(01:02:54):
program in Studio one A. I am here in Studio
one B, and today bringing gifts is the President of
the James Madison Institute, doctor Bob McClure, and we are
joined by Brandon Arnold, executive vice president with the National
Taxpayers Union. Brandon, how are you, sir?

Speaker 2 (01:03:12):
Doing great? Though I'm disappointed. I would have come down
the Florida if I know there would have been a hat.

Speaker 1 (01:03:17):
For me, right right? A little swag goes a long
way to bring somebody to a studio, doesn't it. It's
a good looking hat too, Brandon.

Speaker 2 (01:03:25):
I bet it is.

Speaker 1 (01:03:27):
Brandon. Let's see this topic up and let's bring your
perspective to this. Obviously, the subject is what is now
known as the B to the third power. The big
beautiful Bill. It's been a topic of discussion on this
show for quite a while. Now pull out to sixty
thousand feet. What's your view of the bill?

Speaker 2 (01:03:48):
So it's a good bill. It's not a perfect bill
by any stretch of the imagination. There's a lot of
work that can be done and hopefully will be done
in the Senate to improve it. But at its core,
it does the most important things that it needs to do,
and that is to avert what would be a massive
economy destroying acts increase at the end of this year
that would hit virtually every family, every worker, every small

(01:04:10):
business in this country. So it reverts that and locks
in those lower rates at a permanent basis, so make
sure that we're not going to see increases down the
road anytime soon.

Speaker 1 (01:04:20):
So that's the core of the bill.

Speaker 2 (01:04:22):
It does a lot of other good stuff. Reforming some
of our most critical programs like Medicaid obviously a very
controversial change, a number of controversial changes there. Improving the
tax treatment for some businesses as they make investments of
capital equipment, expanding their factories, growing their enterprise. So I
think it does a lot of good stuff. Obviously, there

(01:04:44):
are some flaws. Anytime you have a bill of this magnitude,
you're going to have some negative aspects, and detractors has
focused on that. I prefer to see the positives here
and to continue to work with the Senate to improve
this bill to make it more fiscally responsible and to
make it more pro growth, and I think they will
do that.

Speaker 1 (01:05:00):
Doctor McClory, you always look at things through the lens
of the of the states first, and primarily Florida. What's
your take of this, and let's kind of distill it
down to its impact here. I think Brandon's absolutely right.
I mean, the failure here is not an option on
this bill. And so the question becomes, at what point

(01:05:20):
do we say, Okay, here's where we are. We must
pass this bill in its current form. Ram Paul said
it best in my opinion. He said I he goes,
I don't oppose the big, beautiful bill. I just want
to make it better. And so let's see what the
Senate does. The reality is, if it doesn't pass. To
Brandon's point, people in Florida are going to see their

(01:05:42):
taxes increase by roughly fifteen percent, give or take. It's
like thirty six thirty seven hundred dollars on average. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
and that's that's for people under one hundred thousand dollars.
Small businesses are going to lose a twenty percent tax deduction.
You're going to ninety percent of Americans take the standard deduction. Okay,
that goes.

Speaker 4 (01:06:01):
That's cutting half the child tax credit, cutting half. So
you're going to see a massive tax increase. And for
those people who are listening Preston, it's counterintuitive. The left
loves to say, hey, let's raise taxes, we will get
more revenue at the federal government. The reality is Reagan
showed and Art Laffer has shown that when you cut taxes,

(01:06:23):
you have more economic activity, sure, and you get more revenue.
That way, if you keep one hundred bucks in your pocket,
you're going to use that hundred bucks to fix your car,
to buy more groceries, to start a business, and the
discretionary money, right, and that generates tax revenue. It's not
raising taxes. And so failure is not an option on
this bill. The reality is what do we do to

(01:06:47):
make it better? But then Congress has more work to
do and we can talk more about that later. About
these recision bills and doing more with Doge and that
kind of stuff, but this thing has to pass. Joining
me on the program is doctor Bob McClure, president of
the J. Madison Institute with us as well on the
phone line as Brandon Arnold. He's executive vice president for
the National Taxpayers Union. We're talking about the bill it's

(01:07:08):
impact not just nationally but in the Sunshine State specifically
here on the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1 (01:07:21):
On news Radio one hundred point seven double UFLA. We're
talking about the big beautiful bill that's not let's just
say it's not an ugly bill. I won't say it's beautiful.
I'll simply say that it's it's it's cute, the big

(01:07:44):
cute bill. Brandon doesn't quite have the same ring to it. President.
I know, I get that. I understand the alliteration on
this whole thing and the you need to sell it
that way. But Brandon, when you say the words permanent,
it's permanent until when until another president comes along and
gets another Congress that changes it.

Speaker 2 (01:08:05):
Yeah, that's right. It's permanent until there's another law that's
passed to overturn it. So you know, obviously there's nothing permanent.
Things can be changed, even the Constitution can be amended,
but it certainly locks in those tax rates on what
would be considered a permanent basis. Here, which is critically
important to talk about economic growth, because businesses are making
investments not just for the current calendar. They're making investments

(01:08:28):
in factories and farm machinery and so forth, with the
expectation that they know what tax rates will do. They'll
have some degree of predictability for five, tens, fifteen years
down the road. So permanent.

Speaker 1 (01:08:42):
It locks in what we've been living under indefinitely until
But there are also some other provisions in this that
would be temporary until they would be permanently locked in
maybe down the road. Correct for example, the no tax
on tips.

Speaker 2 (01:09:00):
Yeah, no tax on tips, no tax on overtime. These
are temporary policies. They are only on the books for
a few years. There's there are a few other policies,
a bump in the standard deduction, an added bump in
the child tax credit that goes up for an additional
five hundred dollars per child, but again only prefered very briefly.
You're doing a lot of this just to comply with

(01:09:22):
arcane Senate rules kind of jam as much tax policy
as they can into a finite number without busting.

Speaker 1 (01:09:28):
The budget, Doctor McClure, what you were referring to things
the Senate needs to really be looking into. We talked
a little bit last week about Senator John Kennedy giving
us a little hint any joke that you know, if
everyone takes their meds, we'll get through this, right. I
thought that was pretty funny. What specifically are you concerned
about that needs to maybe be tweaked or adjusted well

(01:09:50):
in this bill. You know, there's some you know, clawing
back all of the green new new scam is what
I call a complete scam, clawing that back, the the
defunding of you know, the the NPR, the PBS.

Speaker 3 (01:10:07):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:10:08):
Here here's the thing.

Speaker 4 (01:10:08):
And by the way, I don't know if your listeners
have seen, Elon has walked back a lot of already
this morning, has walked back a lot of his criticism
of Donald Trump just this morning. And and so what
what Elon Musk has done is he's performed an incredibly.

Speaker 1 (01:10:24):
Valuable service to the country.

Speaker 4 (01:10:26):
Sure, and despite whatever fallout they may have had or disagreement,
he you know, the wealthiest man on earth has a
tendency to believe that when he points or spends money, uh,
he's gonna be able to fix things. And he ran
into the government Leviathan right, which is challenging what what
has to happen because it doesn't cut enough and it

(01:10:48):
may not and there you know, there's such a small
majority in the House, whether it's the salt deduction or
some of this Green New Deal scam stuff salt as
soon as what that refers to, it's the it's the
state deduction in blue states that allows people to claim

(01:11:08):
that deduction in say California, Illinois against their federal taxes.
And and the problem is it simply means that states
can continue to spend money. Those of us in red
states are paying for that. Yeah, we're subsidizing, right, we're subsidizing,
thank you. And so the reality is what what what
we need to do is continue to cut more. And

(01:11:30):
so passing the bill is just the first step. But
what Elon Musk has done, he's put front and center
the and the term has become so cliche waste, fraud
and abuse, abuse by bureaucrats and federal the federal government
funding mechanisms and these NGOs that are being funded around

(01:11:50):
the country. Look at LA right now, that's all funded
by non government organizations otherwise known as US right. That's right,
that's right, that's not that's nottaneous. That's a whole other discussion,
but that kind of thing, that kind of funding the
Green New Deal and these continued cuts that Doge has highlighted.

(01:12:13):
That comes next. But you can't do it all in
one big, beautiful bill.

Speaker 1 (01:12:19):
We got more to talk about, and I'm going to
kind of turn doctor McClure and Brandon Arnold loose. In
the final segment, Brandon with the National Tax Peri's Union,
Doctor Bob McClure, our monthly guest from the James Madison Institute.
We're talking about the bill, it's impact here in the
Sunshine State and more here on the Morning Show with Preston.

Speaker 5 (01:12:35):
Scott us LA on your phone with the iHeart radio
app and on hundreds of devices like Alexa, Google Home,
Xbox and Sonos and Iheart's radio season.

Speaker 1 (01:13:00):
And in the break we were talking about the fact
that this is the classic case of political reality versus principle,
and that sometimes you just have to sacrifice and you
have to not let perfect be the enemy of good.
But let me channel my inner Mark Levin Brandon. The

(01:13:20):
reason why people are concerned is they look at the
fact that we still have deficit spending, the debt is
still going to grow, and they view it as financially irresponsible.
What is your response.

Speaker 2 (01:13:34):
Yeah, I think I'm very sympathetic to that argument. First
of all, I'm a fiscal hawk, and I think we
absolutely need to be moving in the direction of a
balanced budget and very very quickly. And I do think
this bill takes some very responsible steps in that direction,
ringing in what Bob called the green new scam and
trying to rip that out of the tax code as
quickly as possible so it doesn't linger around out there

(01:13:55):
and lasts longer than we would like it too. I
think making those responsible reforms to medicate getting people that
should not be on the program, able bodied Americans that
refuse to work, or illegal immigrants who are here receiving
federal benefits even though they shouldn't be removing those folks
on the program. So this is not a sprint. This
is a marathon. This whole endeavor to get us back

(01:14:17):
on fiscal track. It's a long process. I think this
is one step in that process, locking in the tax cuts,
making those reforms to important programs that start to make
them more fiscally responsible, and then we need to build
on that. We need to pass that recision spill, which
should pass the House this week, hopefully the Senate soon thereafter,
and that needs to be the start of a lengthy

(01:14:38):
process to move toward a balanced budget. We can't do
it in one fail swoop. I sympathize with those that
want to do that, but it's going to be a
lengthy process to get where we need to be.

Speaker 4 (01:14:50):
We didn't get here overnight, Preston, and so this is
going to take some time. And I think Brandon's absolutely right.
The people have spoken, the the members of Congress, and
the President have been told what to do.

Speaker 1 (01:15:04):
So we start. You know, when you have a massive
project that you're working on at home, it can be overwhelming.

Speaker 4 (01:15:10):
But where do you start. You begin at the beginning.
And so this is, to Brandon's point, just the beginning
this We need to we need to clear this hurdle first. Yes,
we I absolutely agree with ram Paul and with Brandon
that the deficit is a major issue. The debt is
a major issue. We need to move to a balanced budget.
But at the same time, this recisions bill is moving

(01:15:33):
through the House. This is not a one and done process.
This is going to take quite some time. But there
is a mandate there for Congress to do this and
for the White House, and they're going to continue to
keep the pressure on members of Congress. I commend Ran Paul,
I commend Ron Johnson.

Speaker 1 (01:15:53):
But this is just the beginning.

Speaker 4 (01:15:54):
Pass this bill, move to these next issues so we
can reduce the debt and the deficit and get this
country back on a fiscally responsible path.

Speaker 1 (01:16:05):
We might need to stay an extra minute or so
on this segment here, so we might linger for a
little longer here, But let me ask this question of
the both of you to end. Yesterday, Justin Haskins joined
me from the Heartland Institute. Justin, I think is a
pretty bright guy. He said, there's a political reality, and
the reality is that the odds of him maintaining control

(01:16:25):
of the House send it better. But the House in
the midterms is virtually none just statistically doesn't exist. So
if this is the beginning, how do we get the
messaging through to the American people when Republicans notoriously are
bad at it. To give them more time, to give

(01:16:46):
them another two years. How do we win the midterms?

Speaker 2 (01:16:49):
Brandon, Well, you know what I've learned in my time
in Washington is you can make Congress do stuff that
they don't want to do, that they think is politically unpopular.
Only occasionally you have to make what you want to
happen politically popular. So we need to send a message
to Congress that cutting spending, that moving in the direction

(01:17:12):
of fiscal responsibility and toward a balanced budget is the
right thing to do. I think the bond market sent
a very powerful signal to Congress when they went haywire
over concerns about the deficit. But that's just the start.
We need everyday Americans, grassroots Americans, communicating to their legislators
that it's time to do what is necessary, what's been

(01:17:34):
necessary for many, many decades, and that is taking a
serious look at our finances and making revenues the amount
of money the government brings in match with how much
we're spending, and start to enact some serious fiscal responsibility.
Until they hear that from their constituents, they're going to
continue to listen to the folks in Washington that are

(01:17:54):
telling them to spend more and to act there responsibily.

Speaker 1 (01:17:57):
Doctor mclaur will give you the last word. How do
we make the win the midterms?

Speaker 4 (01:18:00):
Well, you pass this bill, you get the economy moving
in the right direction, which I think you know, take
you know, four to six months if this bill passes
because of the certainty that it provides. Sure you, I mean,
the alternative is you don't pass the bill, you have
a massive tax increase, the Democrats take the House, and
then you have nothing. And so the reality is, pass

(01:18:20):
the bill, let's get the economy moving, let's bring down
the cost of living, which is a huge issue for people. Sure,
and then you fight and you take your chances in
the midterm. The alternative is the bill doesn't pass, Democrats
take the House, and then you have nothing. Elon Musk
has shown where we can cut and it's just the beginning,

(01:18:42):
but we must begin somewhere.

Speaker 1 (01:18:45):
Brandon, thanks very much for the time this morning. We
appreciate you joining us on the show.

Speaker 2 (01:18:50):
My closure, thanks so much.

Speaker 1 (01:18:52):
Brandon Arnold, Executive vice president with the National Taxpayers Union.
Doctor Bob McClure, president of James Madison Institute, we get
it done, Get it done. How can we get Republicans
to just do the right thing with messaging? It's been
a I feel like a broken record. I say it
every year. They're terrible at it. They are.

Speaker 4 (01:19:12):
I will say the left has the easier message because
they're saving the whale, saving the children, and saving the oceans.

Speaker 1 (01:19:17):
And we're focused. Oh, they got the mainstream media and
now hip hop. That's right, which adds.

Speaker 4 (01:19:22):
I have so many studies that show how much the
mainstream media adds to what you know, five percent messagets
or whatever to the messaging.

Speaker 1 (01:19:29):
Yet, all right, we'll do it again next month. Thanks
thanks for having me, Doctor Bob McClure with us The
Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 2 (01:19:36):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (01:19:43):
You know, it's funny. There's certain voices that I can
just do. Then there's other voices that I wish. It's
like when I was first in radio, I wanted to
do Donald Duck so bad. I wanted because there was
money to be made doing Donald Duck's voice. It was
a spokesman gig Donald Duck orange juice that was available.

(01:20:04):
But anyway, the big story in the press box is
really it's twofold. First of all get your this. This
segues nicely out of our last half hour dose has
terminated more federal credit cards. It has found six hundred
and ten thousand credit cards unused or unneeded in fourteen weeks.

(01:20:33):
Six hundred and ten thousand in fourteen weeks. Let's do
some simple rudimentary math here. If you take six hundred
and fourteen thousand and divide it by fourteen, that's forty three,
almost forty four thousand credit cards a week that they're

(01:20:57):
finding that are Yeah, let's cancel those, let's deactivate those.
How many are being used but shouldn't be? What kind
of money is involved there? There are four point six millions,

(01:21:21):
So now let's just let's use these numbers. Four point
six million credit cards. We're now down to four million
with an average balance of what are they the infamous?
Isn't it the American Express Black Card or something like
that that's like no spending limit? Yep, pop that down

(01:21:46):
and buy a jet. Now I'm serious. There's there's a
I think that's what it's called the black card. What's
on these balances? How much?

Speaker 3 (01:21:57):
For what?

Speaker 1 (01:21:57):
Who's auditing it, Who's who's determining? We're not buying jet
skis and cars and trips and and who knows what else.
The other big story is RFK Junior removing every single
member of the CDC Vaccine Advisory Panel. You fight it, or,

(01:22:19):
as he would say, hired. Sorry, I didn't mean to
do that. The guy can't help it. He can't help it.
But that is a rock solid impersonation. But I have
been applauding his efforts. He is, he is knocking it
out of the park. And guess what. He's had nothing

(01:22:42):
to do with the abortion issue. He believes that abortion
is a is something that should be available in certain cases.
I disagree with his broad exception of abortion. It's much
more broad than I think it should be. I think
it should be all but eliminated. The cases so remarkably

(01:23:03):
rare that they are truly exceptions to the rule. But
that said, I argued that he would have no impact
on it, and he hasn't. He's had a great impact
on other things. He said, and I quote, a clean
sweep is necessary to re establish public confidence in vaccine science. Boom,
that's mic drop right there. Forty minutes past the hour,

(01:23:26):
come back about China, got something to say, worning Show
with Preston Scott. You're mocking me, aren't you. Oh no, no, no, no,
no no no unused radio one hundred point seven WUFLA

(01:23:49):
fitting my swag on my head here. I've realized last
week that my head is just remarkably large, and some
of you are like, yeah, tell me something. I don't know.
But I have a fitted FSU cap that's a seven
and a half and it's like way snug. So I'm

(01:24:10):
looking at myself, going to have I really gone to
seven and five eighths. I know I'm not seven and
three quarters because I think I actually tried a seven
and three quarters hat on. I was like I was
swimming in it. But I like the adjustable caps. This
is good. This good because you know what, it's a
dad hat. It's got a nonstructured top here, and that's

(01:24:35):
the way to go. A little structure is okay, but
a fully structured front to a hat. I look like
I've got a battery gram for a forehead when I
wear one of those hats. All right, China, A couple
things here in the news. General Jack Keene retired said

(01:25:01):
that the US is target won for the Chinese Communist Party.
No doubt. We quote here, China is conducting the most
comprehensive penetration of our society since we were formed two
hundred and fifty years ago, two hundred and forty nine
years now, we've never seen anything quite like this. The

(01:25:23):
threatned cyber espionage to interfere with food supply, telecommunications, pharmaceuticals,
transportation said. The list goes on, in the event of
a conflict with China and the Pacific, they would attempt
to defeat the American people at home and break their
will to support the war. And here we have a
biological pathogen smuggled into the country that could attack our

(01:25:45):
agriculture and ultimately our food source. And I think this
is more exploit exploration than anything else, to detect and
see how they can penetrate, how comprehensive this could be
for the future. We talked about that if you miss
the story, and it's going to be relevant to our
next story. Here, in just a moment, two resident professors

(01:26:08):
or you know, studying for their doctorate or whatever. They
were Chinese national citizens of China at the University of
Michigan smuggled in an agricultural terrorism weapon, a pathogen that
could decimate American crops smuggled into the country, lied about it.

(01:26:33):
They've been arrested. Get this though, this broke yesterday. Wuhan
researcher charged with smuggling biological materials into a US lab.
The Chinese national said she sent she second she that's
a point. Person here sent an estimated five to ten packages,

(01:26:55):
but somewhere lost in transit. PhD candidate from US on
Wuhan in Central China arrested upon landing at the Detroit
Metropolitan Airport once again sent a number of packages biological
materials to the University of Michigan laboratory. So it would
appear that the University of Michigan is ground zero at

(01:27:17):
this point for Chinese nationals infiltrating. That's a bit of
a problem, my friends, and we have people that are opposing,
like the governor of Arizona, laws that say no Chinese individuals,

(01:27:38):
Chinese nationals, Chinese based companies cannot buy land adjacent to
military bases. I would say, cannot buy land. What are
we do in selling any land to anyone connected to
the Chinese Communist Party? Forty six minutes after the hour
back with the final segment here in the Morning Show

(01:27:59):
with Preston's go all right now, this is to show
you how the show just programs itself sometimes. Okay, we've

(01:28:22):
been talking about China in the last half hour, and
here's this story about a twenty two dollars monster toy
that is causing chaos worldwide and making its Chinese creator
billions literally overnight. So this is coming from China. It

(01:28:47):
is distributed exclusively by the Chinese based retailer PopMart. It
is a plush pendant toy collectible called La Boo Boola
Boo Wo. Do you know about Leabuobo's Jose Labubu La Boobo.

(01:29:08):
Hong Kong born artist Casing Lung became inspired by Nordic's
supernatural folklore and children's imaginative abilities to create le Booboo
and the Larger Monsters figurine series. They actually started hitting
the market in twenty fifteen. Here we are twenty twenty five,
and they sell out immediately. Demand outpaces the supply. They

(01:29:34):
sell for twenty one ninety nine to thirty nine ninety nine.
They're sold in blind boxes, which means you don't know
what you're buying. You open it up and you see
what you get. They are fluffy, plush pendants with an
attachable clip of these figures, and they are being sported

(01:29:54):
on the designer bags of celebrities. Kim Kardashian, Rihanna, David
Beckham carries one around apparently am A Roberts, Hillary Duff
and it's now a thing. I'm just going to read
a couple of the comments on this story, because obviously
I looked at them and I'm like, okay, whatever, do

(01:30:21):
not buy this toy or any other toy from China.
China is manufacturing these toys with toxic chemicals. They create
a high cost to get rid of. China doesn't care
what health affects these toxic toys have on our children.
Another one. In three years, you'll be able to get
them at yard sales for a dollar. This was my

(01:30:43):
favorite though, no doubt. The toys are latent with covert
surveillance La booboo. So yeah, there you go. Brought to
you by Barno Heating and Air. It's the morning show
on WFLA. On these smokies, we covered a lot of

(01:31:06):
ground today. We started with a haikup okay no, We
started with Colossians three, and we continued our our look
at verses twelve, thirteen, fourteen, and we stopped there. We're
gonna add to it tomorrow, but that's that's where we

(01:31:28):
started today. But we talked about a lot of things
on today's show. We covered a lot of ground we
may have found thanks to some archaeologists, the lost colony
of Roanoke. How many shows are you going to listen
to ever that share information that might have solved a

(01:31:56):
riddle of four hundred and fifty years? How many? How
many shows? None? None, ya, none ya. We talked about
the big stories in the press box, dose terminating federal
credit cards, RFK Junior, removing all the members of the

(01:32:16):
CDC Vaccine Advisory Panel, wiping it clean, saying we got
to start over to gain confidence of the American public.
He's right, investment coming to Pennsylvania. Why Trump policies? Dutch
government collapsed last week. We just pointed out the difference
is what the founders got right when they formed this country.

(01:32:37):
You don't have that type of nonsense. We have our
own nonsense, mind you, but we don't have that nonsense.
DEM's in total disarray. Lets you listen into a phone
call with the chair Dick Ken Martin slamming on. David
Hogg asked some questions about the Butler assassination attempt, and
Ryley Gaines getting an apology from some own biles. We'll
be back tomorrow.
