Speaker 1 (00:13):
Good morning, and welcome to the Morning Show Without Preston Scott.
I'm Grant Allan, good to be back filling in here
on the Morning Show. Yes, that was God Bless America
from John Wayne bing Crosby. I'm pretty sure Nat King
Cole was there. I mean Andy Williams like it kind

(00:34):
of sounded like a compilation of Christmas classic Christmas artist
to be honest, Johnny Cash was there, Roy Clark, many
of the legends were there in this rendition of Monday mornings.
God Bless America. Here on the Morning Show again, I'm
Grant Alan filling in for Preston. He likes to when

(00:55):
there's a Packer game, right, take some time and man
a game that ended in a tie and you had
to fight for the tie? Goodness gracious, I uh, brutal.
If you're staying up and you're taking a day off,
you know, to you know, get some rest and you know,

(01:16):
enjoy time with family, watch a football game or whatever.
I would at least want to know if you win
or lose. That's honestly, probably the worst result that I
could have asked for. Is a tie. That's so brutal.
Oh my gosh, but Packers Cowboys last night. But our
verse of the day as we get started here on
the morning show. And I told Jose when I walked in.

(01:41):
The last time that I filled in here on the
Morning Show was June second, and that was the day
my second daughter was brought into this world. And life
hasn't been the same since. And so much is unfolded

(02:01):
just in the world in news, and I more times
than not do we need to start our day with scripture.
So here we go. This is from John chapter three,
verses twenty and twenty one. For everyone who does wicked
things hates the light and does not come to the
light lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does

(02:25):
what is true comes to the light so that it
may be clearly seen that his works have been carried
out in God. And just a few more a verse
prior to that, and verse nineteen rather important to set
the tone for those two verses in twenty and twenty one.
Verse nineteen says, and this is the judgment. The light

(02:45):
has come into the world, and people love the darkness
rather than the light because their works were evil. Christ
came as the light of the world. He is the logos,
the word made flesh He is the light of the world.
And here the scriptures clearly say that the people loved darkness.

(03:08):
How many times do you read through, particularly something like
the Book of Judges, and you get to a passage
in there it says, and in those days Israel had
no king and did what was right, and every man
did what was right in his own eyes. There are
just some things that are not new under the sun

(03:28):
in Christ. And only Christ can can fix the broken hearted,
can redirect our civil governments, kind of our collective conscious,
our collective spirit. Only Christ can renew any of those things.
Ten minutes after the hour here on the Morton Show,
we're just getting started. Stick around. Yes, so much has

(04:05):
changed since I was last in here guest hosting the
show June second. Just think it's kind of hard to
quantify it. I also telling Jose before the show, kind
of a pretty bad problem to have as you're guest
hosting a radio show, as you kind of are like,

(04:25):
what do I say what? I kind of feel like
so many others have taken up the mantle and appropriately
said what needs to be said. And I'm specifically talking
about the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination and the increase,
and this is actually going to be one of the
big stories in the press box and kind of a
revolving theme. The stories that stuck out to me, the

(04:48):
ones that are catching my attention, like this increased level
of just obscene violence, Like as the verse of the
day said, not everyone excuse me, but everyone who does
wicked things hates the light. I mean, there is just
something palpably dark right now. You can just kind of

(05:12):
feel it. That's part of the theme of today is
that there's just so much that's so it's so dangerous
out there right now. But an important way to root
us and ground us is to know our own history,
know that our forefathers have been here before, maybe not

(05:33):
in this particular exact moment where you know our homeland
is being overrun by foreign hordes all across our city streets.
It's open season on anyone who is explicitly Christian or
like even to the right of Mitt Romney. Right, if
you're to the right of Mitt Romney. It's kind of

(05:54):
like the left is losing their minds, but the left
is also returning to full form. I will explain on this,
but we have to understand our history on this day,
September twenty ninth. If I didn't say it already, it's Monday,
September twenty ninth. September twenty ninth, seventeen eighty Patriots under
General Francis Marion South Carolina surprised Loyalist forces on Black

(06:18):
Mingo Creek, South Carolina, and on the night of September
twenty nine, seventeen eighty militia loyal to George the Third
were camped on Black Mingo Creek and coastal South Carolina,
when suddenly a Patriot force materialized out of the steamy
darkness with guns ablazing. The surprise Tories put up a
sharp defense, but soon fled across the Santee River, leaving
behind their supplies and ammunition. Francis Marion, the Swamp Fox,

(06:41):
had struck again. One of the early heroes of the Revolution,
Marion was a short, quiet man who wore a sword
so seldom drawn it rusted in its scabbard. Marion's guerrilla
warfare kept the British in a constant state of confusion
and alarm. With grudging respect to the Red Coats began
to to refer to him as his now infamous name,

(07:02):
the Swamp Fox. It's a hotel in Charleston, Swamp Fox Hotel.
I think it was ben Charleston once and there was
lots of Francis Marion swamp Fox themed things there was.
It was a very cool history. It is said that
one day Marian invited a British officer to dinner in

(07:23):
his camp under the flag of truce, and served a
meal of fire baked potatoes on a slab of bark,
with vinegar and water to wash it down. Lovely. His
guest was surprised at how little the Patriots had to eat.
Quote but surely, General, he inquired, this can't be your
usual fare. Indeed it is, Sir Marion replied, and we
were fortunate on this occasion entertaining company, to have more

(07:44):
than our usual allowance. The story goes that the British
officer were so overcome by the Americans determination and sacrificed
that he resigned his commission and sailed back to England.
Bro just took the hell. I love the story of
our war for independence and how it was kind of
perfectly crafted by things got started in New England. You had,

(08:06):
you know, these very righteous and pious New England men
who took a stand at Lexington Green and that's what
got things started. And then the theater shifted south into
the Carolina back country with Francis Marion. And obviously the
movie The Patriot is kind of a wildly loose adaptation
about the life of Francis Marion, the Mel Gibson classic.

(08:32):
It's great for vibes, not for actual like historical facts.
It's a great movie for vibes to get your feeling patriotic.
But the theater shifted south and it was one in Virginia,
in the Carolina Colonies, and it was this kind of
dual theater where you had the men of New England,
John Adams and Thomas Jefferson and George Washington coming together

(08:53):
and making peace with their countrymen who they had many disagreements.
Men from the Carolinas and men from New England were very,
very different, but they had a common cause, common faith,
common lineage. They were of common stock, and that was
the thing that brought them together as colonies turned states.
Seventeen minutes after the hour, let's get things started. Actual

(09:13):
news stories coming up next here in the morning. Good morning,
Welcome to the Morning Show. I'm grand Allan in for Preston.
This was a story you likely saw kind of break

(09:36):
over the weekend. It was got a late Friday. We
talk about the deep state, but how deep is it?
What I mean is the deep state. It's we like

(10:00):
to attribute the deep state as to being this back
room of you know, shadowy, smoke filled rooms with you know,
these nefarious and evil people who are calling the shots
in what happens in the country and therefore reverberates what
happens in the world. That's like the caricature like a

(10:24):
lot of us have in our minds, like, oh, it's
the deep state. It's less. I'm not saying that it
can't be that. I'm just not so certain that it's
always that. Here's what I mean. FBI agents fired after
kneeling at the George Floyd protest in twenty twenty. So
you may remember from five years ago, the George Floyd

(10:47):
thing happens, and then everyone is like doing the ceremonial
and taking a knee, right, so much so that the
NFL still has like, you know, these dumb kind of
social justice warrior slogans in the end zones. It's been
five years half a decade since that, and so everyone
the social pressure to put the black square on your

(11:08):
Facebook profile was immense. The social pressure to like go
to a pro George Floyd pro BLM protest and then
take a knee symbolic knee was immense pressure. So these
FBI agents who were photographed from five years ago are

(11:32):
just now losing their jobs. Reuters framed the number of
fired agents as more than a dozen. Fox News is
saying that an estimated twenty agents have been dismissed. The
photographs at issue reportedly showed a group of agents taking
a knee during one of the demonstrations in Washington, DC.

(11:56):
The FBI declined to comment to Fox News When asked
about the report determinations in the FBI Agents Association condemned
the firings as unlawful, warning they violated civil service protections.
Blah blah blah, This dangerous precedent, group said, Oh, imagine
if the shoe was on the other foot. Imagine if
conservatives were getting fired for their political beliefs. Oh wait.

(12:24):
They argued that the bureau punished employees five years later
for a split second de escalation decision in a volatile moment.
That's that's that is a very easy I'm not saying
that that's not possible. I'm saying that's a very easy
out for them to do that. If this wasn't politics,

(12:44):
it was survival. One former agent told Reuters, as they're
smiling in this photo, big old smile in this you
know person in the photograph. So what I mean is
the deep state, as I started this top, I think
it's kind of less these nefarious back room actors. Again,

(13:08):
I think those things happen. But you have millions upon
millions of people that live in like Fairfax County, Virginia, Alexandria, Virginia,
the belt Way, that live in nice homes. Right when

(13:29):
Tucker Carlson had oh I Forget who it was on
to discuss the Epstein files, and John Podesta was brought
up and about the artwork that he has in his home,
Like outside of Virginia, this is like your average, well
not average. Northern Virginia is reliably more wealthy than average. Right,

(13:51):
but this is like upper middle class, if not middle class,
like gated neighborhoods, really nice homes. And then what do
you have living right next door John in his perverted art, right,
Like these FBI agents live in the Beltway, they have homes,
there are normal people. That's the deep state. It's this,
it's it's the people who take the DC Metro into

(14:13):
town every day. That's a much more accurate description. Twenty
seven minutes after the hour here of the Morning Show,
I'm grand Allan more soon.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
Who's traffic, Weather, Sports, entertainment to add the truth? The
Morning Show with Preston Scott on News Radio one hundred
point seven WFLA.

Speaker 1 (14:53):
Thirty six minutes after the hour, here on the Morning Show,
Good morning and welcome. This is the time of the
show where we talk about the big stories in the
press box, and you'll hear Preston, who's normally sitting in
this chair all the time, discuss how last night I
had a big story and then I came in and
the whole thing was scrapped. I started working on this

(15:16):
show prep on Saturday, and I intentionally did not finish it,
knowing full well Sunday it is a full day of news. Still,
there's no there is no Sabbath rest in twenty first
century America. The news goes on. And so yeah, the

(15:36):
big story in the press box changed as a result
of news yesterday. There are now, according to Fox and
this was updated at five forty nine am, so right
before we came on the air. There are at least
four dead as the search for additional victims continues. As

(15:57):
a Michigan Mormon church was attacked and burned. Police have
identified the suspected gunman, a forty year old from Burton, Michigan,
who drove a truck into the Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter day Saints in Grand Blanc Township set it
on fire in an open fire. At least four people

(16:17):
are pronounced to dead, seven are in stable condition, and
one remains in critical condition. Two were killed by gunfire,
two others were killed after found in the fire. The shooter,
who shall remain nameless, armed with what appeared to be
a rifle, exchange gunfire with officers, and he was killed

(16:41):
in that exchange. I really disliked that, Like, I go ahead, Jose.

Speaker 3 (16:52):
Is there any reports about five officers being killed in
that gunfight? Because I heard that from local news yesterday
and I was I was like, oh, that is terry.
Did you say five five officers killed? I have not
read that all right, Yeah, so hopefully that was a miss.
Hopefully that was Hopefully that was not true. Everything I've
seen so far is the total tally is four victims.

(17:12):
I've not seen anything regarded to law enforcement a victims.
The FBI is leading the case with the ATF. Local
law enforcement, and leaders of the church called the violence tragic,
urging for prayer in peace. Police are saying additional, additional
people may have died in the blaze, but that number

(17:33):
has not yet been confirmed, so there sounds like they're
preparing for the worst in terms of those who may
have perished in the fire. But to your question, Jose,
it doesn't sound like there were law enforcement casualties, so
thank god, Yeah, at least a small mercy I suppose
amidst tragedy. I really really dislike it when these cowards

(17:59):
want to go out. I guess you could say, in
what they view in their own deranged mind is a
blaze of glory. Maybe a bad choice of words given
the context, but it's the only thing I could come
to come to say, because I want these people to
face justice, and in one respect, at least the alleged

(18:29):
Charlie Kirk assassin, he is living now. He's on suicide
watch last I saw. But I'm surprised that he if he.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
You know, the psychology of the people that do these
kinds of things is wild to me because the Charlie
Kirk assassin is on suicide watch allegedly, but he did
not remove himself from the earth while he was still
roaming free. But yet this guy in Michigan goes out

(18:57):
in a blaze. The psychology behind how these people decide
or why why they want to take themselves out or
go out by by law enforcement. I want justice to
be served and that would require them being alive, and
then the civil magistrate having to execute punishment execution admitted

(19:24):
that that is the crime or that is the punishment
that is appropriate for these types of disgusting things, these
dark and twisted things. And so going out in the
blaze of glory by law enforcement coward. I can't stand
that the bloods as the Bible says, that kind of

(19:50):
a human's life force kind of is in the blood,
which is why it was so bad that Cain slew
able that his blood cried out to God while on
the ground for justice. And this is the case too.

(20:10):
Forty one minutes after the hour, that's the big story
in the press box. We'll revisit in the event of updates.

Speaker 2 (20:18):
This is the Morning Show with Preston Scott's.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
I'm not gonna spend too much time talking about it,
because we get one of these it feels like once
a quarter. I mean it's really like once or twice
a year, maybe once a year. But the other big
story in the press box to be aware of is
apparently there's an impending government shutdown. I mean those are
just called that's like Tuesday. Literally, like those happen so

(20:51):
often because of these continuing resolutions, we don't actually have budgets.

Speaker 4 (20:57):
And so.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
It's not that I'm disinterested in that. I'm definitely paying
attention to it, but I'm just throwing that on your radar. Frankly,
the issues facing our country are so far and wide.
A government shut down sounds just kind of like good
old like two thousands party politics. Oh those Democrats, they

(21:20):
gotta get in. Like it just kind of kind of
glosses over my brain at this point where I hear, oh,
impending government shut down, and I'm like, that happens all
the time. Meanwhile, I talked about how our homeland has
been facing an invasion for generations. This story is almost

(21:42):
it's so crazy if you know anything in Leon County schools,
maybe you let someone know because ICE has arrested the
Des Moines, Iowa school superintendent for being illegally in the
United States with a loaded handgun. Des Moines, Iowa Public

(22:06):
Schools Superintendent Ian Andre Roberts has been arrested by ICE
after having been illegally residing in the United States and
in possession of a loaded handgun. On Friday, ICE agents
announced his arrest, noting that he is an illegal alien
from Guyana who first entered the US in nineteen ninety
nine on student visa and was given a final deportation

(22:29):
order by a federal immigration judge in May twenty twenty four.
ICE agents said they approached Roberts on Friday in his vehicle,
which had been provided by the Des Moines Public Schools
as part of his role as school superintendent. Roberts, agents said,
sped off and abandoned the vehicle in a wooded area.

(22:52):
He rec This was what they got from his vehicle,
A loaded handgun, three thousand dollars in cash, and a
fixed blade honey knife. This is a school superintendent. How
many of these are there? How many cases of this

(23:14):
across the country are there in Des Moines. We're not
talking about South Texas here. We're not talking about San
Diego or Los Angeles, where you expect or Arizona Maricopa County,
where you expect to hear lots of stories about illegal
border crossings, maybe people who have gotten in positions of power,

(23:37):
who were say anchor babies. Right, this is Des Moines.
If it's in Des Moines, it's in Kallispell, Montana. It's
in Evansville, Indiana, it's in Ozark, Arkansas. And it's problem

(24:00):
even in a small town like Liberal Kansas. My point
is this is everywhere we have I keep seeing estimates
like there's an estimated twenty million who need to be deported,
and those are the illegals. I'm gonna take the bigger number. Honestly,

(24:21):
I think it's probably more. And we're facing not only
southern border crossings have come to a halt, but my
attention is immediately now back to the northern border, which
I believe. I'm not gonna say that, I don't want to,
I don't want to speak incorrectly, but border crossings across

(24:43):
the northern border are also just as bad as Canada
is being remade into an entire like third world governed
h also family program. Don't want to say it. It's

(25:07):
what Trump called Haiti, Okay, Like that's that's what's rapidly
happening on our northern border. We have we have no
idea how bad it is. Forty seven minutes after the hour,

(25:39):
our number one is almost in the books. Here in
the morning show. Next hour, doctor Joe Camps and Healthy
Expectations will be joining me, and then an hour number three,
Irischaffelle from war chant dot Com will be joining me
to recap what was Friday night, uh and what's coming
up next for the Knowles Miami. Arguably, you know, number

(26:06):
easily a top five, easily a top five team, potentially
number two in the country, right, depending on who you ask.
I think they are reliably a top two to three
team in the country. I think that's I think that's right.

Speaker 5 (26:20):
Man.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
There's some some things, there's so much to break down
with that, but that'll be for our number three at
eighth five when Ira joins the program. This is a
Florida based story. Attorney General James Utmeyer. I hope I'm
pronouncing that correctly. I think that's how you say it,

(26:42):
and uth Meyer, Utemeyer, you know who I'm talking about.
Florida sues a pornographic gaming site, uh number one before
we proceed any further. What a pornographic gaming site? What

(27:05):
does that even mean? What is that? Don't answer that,
I don't want to know. He's suing this site and
its payment processor, claiming age verification violations. So, for those
of you who don't recall, Florida has an age of

(27:27):
verification requirement in order to log on to those types
of sites. Florida Attorney General James Udmeyer announced that his
office is suing the gaming platform and its parent company
and its payment processor for allegedly ignoring the state's of

(27:48):
Verification Law HB three. The law, which went into effect
in January, requires websites to verify that visitors based in
Florida are at least least eighteen years old. As this
article is unfolding, there are some rather large conglomerates in

(28:12):
that world that are kind of named and involved in this.
The complaint also names another site, and while this parent
company blocked access to several of its other sites in
Florida when the age verification law took effect, two of

(28:34):
them remained accessible. Only requiring users to click a box
agreeing that they are eighteen without necessitating ID verification. That's
a deterrent. If you've got to pop your ID just
to go and access who's gonna do that. This is

(28:54):
why I functionally, I cannot be a libertarian because the
civil magistrate has a duty to protect us and shield
from disgusting degenerosy like that hour number two here on Monday,

(29:30):
September twenty ninth, in the year of Our Lord, twenty
twenty five, here on the Morning Show without Preston Scott,
I'm grant Allan filling in over the weekend. Is you know,
when you prep for this show kind of night tonight,
you can kind of keep track of what's breaking. But
Monday shows are unique in that you have the Friday

(29:54):
late Friday news dump that happens between four and five,
the news all Saturday, and then the news all Sunday.
As I said, there is no such thing in twenty
first century American in the news world, there's no such
thing as Sabbath rest. They proceed forward whether or not

(30:15):
they are attending church. That said, this was a story
from Saturday morning, and I have so many thoughts around
the current Trump administration. Let me start out by saying
that when Donald Trump survived a grazed bullet in Butler,

(30:45):
PA last summer, I truly felt that he had the
mandate of Heaven. I still feel that way. No politician
anywhere in the world commands actual political sweat and prowess
quite like he does. It was in a conversation with

(31:05):
a friend of mine recently, and we were having a discussion.
It was more political philosophy, really discussing the various types democracy, republicanism, monarchy,
and one of the things that's interesting on at least
on the right, from a guy like Curtis Yarvin, he

(31:26):
has injected kind of monarchy back into kind of the
right wing ecosystem, not actual monarchy, because we don't have
nobility in the world. We don't even have nobility in
Europe anymore. Really, technically they have some nobles and earls
and lords and dukes in various European countries and kings,

(31:48):
but they don't actually hold real political sway anymore. That's
been kind of a parliamentarian progress, very whiggish view of history.
The British themselves they have a king, but who exercises
more political power the president of the United States or

(32:12):
the British King Charles the third, who actually has more
power invested in him. Now, Donald Trump may not have
the crown, we don't have noble titles dating back to
the feudal era and the height of the Middle Ages.
We don't have that, but we do have a president.
And that was the intent of the founders to very

(32:35):
much be able to wield and execute power when need
be right, while at the same time checks and balances
and limits are there. And so Donald Trump on Saturday
announced he vows full force as he plans to send
troops to Portland amid anti ice protests and these types
of things have been going on for years. I said

(32:59):
in a different chat that I'm in inspired by some
other other bright guys that I've seen kind of build
out this idea around this rhetoric with the attack on
the Mormon Church yesterday, the Charlie Kirk assassination, anti ice

(33:23):
riots and attacks even dating back to the now Kings
protest over the summer back in June when it looked
like Los Angeles was going to burn to the ground,
and dating all the way back to the Summer of
Love in twenty twenty when half of American City's burned.

(33:45):
How the president responds to all of this in the
coming weeks and months, I think is going to be
the thing that defines his legacy more than anything. How
does he respond to domestic strife? And we have to
become immune and immune our stomachs and our spines of
steel have to just be hardened and ignore when they

(34:08):
toss around these terms like dictator or literally hitler. You
have to become immune. Peace in the realm is the
job of the president. Ten minutes after the hour here
on the Morning Show, we got more coming up next.

Speaker 2 (34:29):
Well, actually, his producer reads him. He doesn't know how
to read. It's the Morning Show with President Scott.

Speaker 1 (34:50):
It's imperative that the Trump administration responds to all of
this chaos with appropriate strength that I think he's afforded.

Speaker 5 (35:07):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (35:08):
I don't think it's it's it's a rather contested constitutional
doctrine that he has the ability to deploy the National
Guard in times of civil unrest, in times of emergency powers. Actually,
some of the left's most adored figures wielded executive power

(35:30):
in ways that had not been previously wielded. So what
do I mean by that the left and the right.
It's kind of a a not a great example here, right,
here's what I mean. I think Donald Trump could absolutely

(35:52):
constitutionally speaking, lean into that. And I know we're in
the south, right, so bear with me. But that Linconian,
that Lincoln kind of model, and Lincoln very famously ignored
a lot, right, FDR ignored a lot and like kind

(36:16):
of subsumed of what like what we now call the
deep state was what he proposed in the New Deal,
right that, but aspects of that passed away and it
kind of just got adopted into these other agencies. Anyway,
I think there's a real place for Donald Trump to
use emergency level powers to bring peace and restore order

(36:41):
to the realm. I think that's I I think it's time.
It's it's imperative that we have men in the administration
who know the time of day, because if the left
doesn't face consequences, and I mentioned in te this in
the first hour, this is the left coming back into

(37:03):
full form, the left, progressivism, illiberalism, however you want to
describe it. I like the historical term of Jacobinism. The
Jacobins were the French revolutionaries who set off with their
heads and it was blood in the streets. That is

(37:28):
the left kind of at their most natural state. It's
rather unnatural for Jacobins to live in a state of
peace because at their core, political assassinations, anti ice, riots
and chaos in the streets is what they've been doing
since seventeen ninety three, since the French Revolution. This is

(37:51):
kind of who they are. And Donald Trump, I think,
I hope and pray he recognizes that God saved Donald
Trump in order to be a proper civil magistrate, to
which God has given the keys, the keys to the

(38:14):
kingdom or the Church. But God has given the sword
to wield and in the name of God, to seek
vengeance for the blood who are crying out to God
for justice. This comes as Trump authorizes full force in
Portland as Attorney General Pam Bondy deploys anti Antifa nationwise

(38:41):
from zero hedge. Attorney General Pam Bondi plans to deploy
DOJ agents to ICE facilities and wherever federal immigration officers
are under siege. This includes ordering Defense Secretary excuse me,
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to send US troops to
Portland to protect the city and ice facilities from Antifa

(39:05):
and other quote unquote domestic terrorists. There's a challenge there.
Many have brought this up about classifying Antifa as a
terrorist organization, of which I have no problem with. You
know Antifa when you see it, but it's challenging because
there is it's a decentralized there is no formal structure, right,
who's the head of Antifa, Well, that doesn't really exist,

(39:29):
and that's part of their terror tactic is to be
decentralized and kind of have no head to take off
because they have so many cells throughout the country. That's
part of the challenge. Official classification and official designation, I
suppose may run into some technical challenges because there is
no centralized, hierarchical authority in that group. But as I said,

(39:53):
you know Antifa when you see it, and I think
it's I think it's high time we absolutely reckon ignize
them as domestic terrorists. That's what they are. Absolutely. Sixteen
minutes after the hour here on the Morning Show, many

(40:31):
of you know that one of the topics that I've
discussed before. I guess it's because you know, I'm I
don't know. I guess I'm technically a zoomer, and so
I'm acutely aware of the phenomenon that takes place behind
this because I see it on the internet. I guess

(40:52):
technically I am a zoomer since I'm twenty eight, but
I've definitely rendered myself. You know, when you get married
and have kids, I'm like, not a cool zoomer anymore.
I'm I'm gonna I'm established now, I'm I'm not in college.
You know. That's actually part of the discussion I've had
with lots of friends in the wake of Charlie Kirk

(41:17):
his martyrdom, is that when I was in college, I
was more aware of what TPUSA was because I was
in college, that makes sense, and what Charlie Kirk's kind
of mission was. And admittedly I kind of feel bad

(41:38):
that I didn't follow him closer because I felt like
I had kind of graduated or matured out of that.
So if Charlie Kirk's whole thing was going to college
campuses and I wasn't on the college campuses anymore, I
got into the professional space, I kind of just felt
like I grew out of it a little bit. And
that's not a knock on the work that TPUSA does

(41:58):
just I graduated, got married, started a family. That happens.
You kind of mature out of things into new things,
seasons of life. But I kind of wish i'd like
listened to his podcast more or you know, followed his
Twitter account maybe a little bit more closely, because dude

(42:20):
was based. He was like, he was totally our guy,
and I kind of feel bad. So in the realm
of that Internet space. One of the topics that has
come up as a real threat that the left does
to threaten right wingers is this concept of doxing. If

(42:40):
you're unfamiliar, I've I've mentioned it when I've guest hosted
the show before, But doxing is, in essence, taking things
that were once private, private information about your life and
making them public. So, for example, let's say you are
operating an account on Twitter under a pseudonym and your
real name and your profession is docksed for the world

(43:02):
to see. Why would the left and it For the
longest time, it's been primarily leftists who do this. Why
would they do that? Well, at best, they want you fired,
and at worse, Yeah, well, Jose's given the the what

(43:27):
the finger crossed the throat symbol. Yeah right, exactly what
they did to Charlie. That's the worst of them at best.
They just want you to lose your job and make
your children starve, make you unhirable. That's who they are.
So here's this story from Fox. Three women were indicted
for allegedly live streaming a chase of an ICE agent

(43:48):
to his home and posting his address online where he lives.
An address would be considered previously private information that is
made public and intended to be used nefariously. Prosecutors allege
women trailed an agent from Los Angeles workplace and posted
as personal information online. The indictment charges the trio with

(44:15):
one count of conspiracy in one count of publicly disclosing
the personal information of a federal agent. According to announcement
on Friday this past Friday, our brave federal agents put
their lives on the line every day to keep our
nations safe. Acting US Attorney in California, Ben Essie said
in a statement, the conduct of these defendants is deeply
offensive to law enforcement officers and their families. If you
threaten docs, or harm in any manner manner one of

(44:37):
our agents or employees, you will face prosecution and prison time.
That's for federal agents, but this has been happening to
private individuals for years. Just this weekend, Gavin Newsom Press Office,
the official Twitter account for Gavin Newsom Press Office, in
a similar vein posted on Twitter. Stephen Miller is a fascist?

(45:06):
Now what result would they want as a result of that?
Why would they say that for the same reasons that
they said Charlie Kirk was a fascist. You and I
know that's not the case. But if they're saying that
about Stephen Miller, if they're saying about that and actually

(45:28):
do that to Charlie Kirk, what about you and me?
These are all proxies for you and me. That's how
they feel about you. And we live right next door
to these people. These are our neighbors. I don't know

(45:49):
what to do about that. Find your community, build your
trustworthy local networks, and you have to harden yourself, whether
it be hardened security around your home, your family, just

(46:12):
you have to take everything into consideration. Now twenty minute,
twenty eight minutes after the hour, Doctor Joe Camps In
just a little bit, Doctor Joe Camps will be joining

(46:43):
me in just a few minutes here on the Morning Show.
I'm Grant Alan here on Monday, September twenty ninth, halfway
done with the show Crazy Crazy Time flying by, here's
the big story in the press box. As you likely
imagined after the news broke yesterday, there was a church attack.

(47:07):
A Latter day Saints a Mormon church in Michigan was
attacked a shooter, open fire and then started a fire
that As of this morning, there has not been an
update since we last checked in, so as of five
to forty nine am, Fox is reporting there are four
confirmed fatalities and they are searching for more. In case

(47:34):
you need the info recapt real quick. A forty year
old marine veteran of Burton, Michigan, drove a truck to
the Mormon church in Grand Blanc Township, set the church
on fire and open fire during a Sunday morning service.
At least four people are dead, seven are in stable

(47:54):
condition in one remains in critical condition. Two were killed
by gunfire, and another two were found as a result
of the fire. The shooter, armed with what appeared to
be a rifle, exchange gunfire with the officers, and he
died in exchanging gunfire. Atf state, local authorities and the

(48:16):
FBI are investigating, and that there's still a number of
people yet to be confirmed. It is possible that the
number of fatalities rises from four. It's interesting how the

(48:39):
shooter who shall remain nameless. There was an article that
was posted Fox's Reporting, an article from two thousand and
seven Clarkston News in apparently this gentleman's original hometown then
described the twenty two year old as a Marine sergeant

(49:04):
preparing to deploy to Fallujah with a proud family behind him.
Family said that he was very exciting. So they're like,
details about this guy's background are starting to come out,
and apparently, you know, half flags have been declared in
the state of Michigan by Governor Whitmer. No apparent connection

(49:29):
has been drawn just yet between the shooter and that
specific congregation. Feels very random, and in the defense segments
that Preston has with Charlie and j d Over at

(49:51):
the Talent Range, the first they will be the first
ones to tell you, which is just a statistical reality
that most of these I mean, this is an extreme
crime of passion, but like other types of crimes of passion,
this type of violence oftentimes occurs between people who know
one another, right so potentially within families, domestic disputes obviously

(50:12):
within families, shootings occur between friends, or rivalries between one another,
between friends, family, whatever the case may be. So these
types of very cold hearted attacks and political assassinations and

(50:36):
like a complete complete removal from any kind of personal
connection to the individual, just pure stone cold hatred in
cold blood people just deciding to end people's lives. That's
horrifying that that's feeling like palpably increasing in our world.

(50:57):
I don't know what to do about that, but pray.
Forty forty one minutes after the hour, Doctor Joe Camps
and Healthy Expectations coming up next.

Speaker 6 (51:08):
On news Radio one hundred point seven WUFLA, what ails
the listener?

Speaker 1 (51:23):
Are you feeling particularly poor in one? You know, part
of yourself? For another? Well, this time every week, doctor
Joe Camps joins us. He's talked about everything ranging from
heart health, gut health, you know, keeping your brain sharp
as time goes on. Maybe you're you're aging into a
different season of life. But doctor Camp says, almost always,

(51:45):
well he actually not almost always always always has something
prescient to share. Doctor Camps, good morning, thanks for joining us.

Speaker 4 (51:52):
Good morning, Thank you very much, I'm sort of hitting
around the same thing. You might remember there was a
lot of political discussion around a sentiment in palinol as
potential causes of autism and attention deficit disorder, and so
I want to follow up on that because this is

(52:13):
pretty simple, but I think you'll get the message. So
a study was recently done by Mount Sinai Hospital up
in New York, and they reviewed forty six publishable studies
on this subject, and it suggested that there was a
higher risk of autism and attention deficit disorder, but the

(52:39):
findings pointed to an association rather than a causation. Now
that's what I'm talking about, an association rather than causation.
And sometimes when you read the literature, you get a
blurb and then you either politicize the issue or you
start having pros and cons and not really looking at

(53:02):
the substance. And so the Swedish did a follow up
study and they actually looked at a study where they
gave higher doses of a set of menifit doing pregnancy,
and they found out that there were no effects from this.
So what I'm really trying to point out this morning

(53:23):
is when you particularly when you look at medical literature,
you have to be very careful that you don't develop
a bias regarding the subject and formulated an opinion, because
there are a lot in the medical literature that is
written around association rather than causation. So I just put

(53:46):
that out there this morning because, as you know, that
hit a political realm that was just overwhelmed. It was
all over the place, and I thought that this was
really challenging because a set of menifit and talent als
met around the decades and we've never seen anything like this,
but it was an association of words that sort of

(54:06):
tripped everybody up. So I want you, as you look
at issues, make sure you distinguish between and association and causation,
because then I think that helps you formulate your ideas
and decide whether you participate in certain medical therapies or
take certain medications without politicizing it and thinking about it,

(54:30):
because I look at medicine as being the rear of science.
So this sort of is an example of what I'm
trying to say, make sure you try to distinguish between
association and causation. So that's that's my two minute discussion
this morning.

Speaker 1 (54:46):
Phenomenal, Thank you, so much Doctor Camps for joining and yeah,
that is absolutely the lay reader who goes into something
like a medical journal or a medical study probably is
coming across all sorts of things that I don't know
how to make heads or tails of this, So we
appreciate doctor Camps taking time to explain it. Listen, this

(55:08):
this whole tailand all thing is, it's the memes have
actually been crazy. But like you go to your ob
appointment and they tell you not to tell your wife,
tell the expectant mother not to eat deli meat, like
deli meat like that, that's technically one of those things

(55:29):
you should air against. It doesn't really surprise me regardless
of where you fall on this. I mean around the
people that I know. I don't know pregnant mothers who
are over the moon about taking Thailand all because they're
kind of concerned about what's going in their body for
the baby's sake. That's just something I've observed. If lunch

(55:51):
meat is to be aired against, I don't know. But
again I am as doctor Camp's explained. You know the lay,
so when you go into it, you know, make sure
to get a grasp of kind of where things are
to begin with absolutely, Thanks Doctor Camps forty seven minutes
after the hour and healthy expectations.

Speaker 2 (56:14):
And welcome to the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1 (56:31):
In thirteen minutes, Irish Chaffell from warchan dot com will
be joining me. We'll recap the game from Friday night
and look to what is the rest of the season.
I told Jose before the show started, you see this

(56:52):
happen a lot actually with various teams throughout sports in general. Sometime,
you know, getting punched in the mouth, taking a loss
is the catalyst for whatever the case. Like one month ago,
one month ago, Alabama was like one of the embarrassing, like,

(57:15):
oh my gosh, they you know out Florida State just
ran them out. They didn't even not only did Alabama
not win, they looked embarrassing. And now Alabama had probably
a top three one of the most impressive wins so far.
Ohio State beating Texas number one, number two week one,

(57:37):
that's an impressive win. Oregon on the road at Happy
Valley also from Saturday night beating Penn State that's one.
And then Alabama going to Sandford Stadium and Athens and
beating Georgia that those are the three best wins in
college football right now off the top of my head.
So we'll talk about all of it. But before we
get there, I had to go to this so a

(57:59):
lot is made about I had never heard of this
person until the news broke out this person passing. Oh yes, okay.
I couldn't remember the name of this person, but apparently

(58:19):
seeking refuge in Cuba, some you know revolutionary, you know, communist,
black liberation fighter, activist person, Assada Shakur died in Cuba,
and I have no idea who she is or never

(58:44):
heard her story before, but this is a little bit
of her story. In nineteen seventy three, Assada Shakur murdered
a New Jersey state trooper and was convicted of first
degree murder, armed robbery, and aggravated assault. And in nineteen
seventy nine, armed allies stormed the prison, freed her, and

(59:04):
smuggled her to Cuba. Since then, she has been on
the FBI's most wanted terrorist lists. And this quote is
from the Chicago Teachers Union. Rest in power, Rest in peace,
Asada Shakur. Today we honor the life and legacy of

(59:25):
a revolutionary fighter, a fierce writer, a revered elder of
black liberation and a leader of freedom whose spirit continues
to live in our struggle. Asada refused to be silenced
while she murdered a New Jersey State trooper. So you

(59:45):
had an ice raid in des Moines, Iowa, where a
superintendent was found to be carrying having a weapon on him.
He was illegal, He overstayed his student visa from nineteen
ninety nine and was supposed to be deported last year.
And he was the superintendent of Des Moines Public Schools.

(01:00:06):
And now the Chicago Teachers Union is sending rest in power,
rest in peace, sister to Assada Shakur, a known FBI
Most Wanted terrorist. Amen, I'm just saying those are the

(01:00:31):
schools our number three. Here on the morning show, I'm

(01:00:54):
Grant Allan filling in for Preston and joining me now
is Ira Scheffel from more chant dot Com. We've got
a game to discuss. I mean, it wasn't the outcome
anyone wanted, of course, right, and so it's kind of

(01:01:15):
I look at the box score, Ira, and box scores
don't obviously don't tell the whole story. You have two
eyes to see, and you see Florida State outpass Virginia.
They outrun Virginia total yardage is more than Virginia and
now and yet Virginia won the game. Is this just
like a physical physicality type thing. Couldn't get off the

(01:01:36):
field in the second half. What's your breakdown?

Speaker 5 (01:01:40):
Yeah, you know, I think that, you know, it was
really two sides of the ball played very differently. I mean,
I think the offense certainly held up. It's part of
the bargain. You know, they had over five five hundred
yards of offense on the road, their first road game
of the season. But you know, they also had a couple,
you know, pretty big mistakes. Tommy cats Alina Stow on

(01:02:00):
the interception down near the goal line was a big one.
They also had another fumbled that was a big one
that set up a touchdown. So the offense wasn't flawless,
But I thought the offense overall performed much closer to
what you hoped it would do. The defense, though, did not.
And you know, Virginia, you know, had four hundred yards
of offense, which was not as much, but they capitalized

(01:02:21):
on a lot of opportunities. Florida State couldn't stop them
at all when they got down into the red zone,
and you know, just they just didn't play as physical
and it sounded like when we talked to Tony White yesterday,
the defensive coordinator, they had a lot of just mistakes
in terms of misalignments and things like that. They just
weren't as focused. I mean, they just were not as
sharp as they looked against Alabama. And whether that was

(01:02:42):
because they were looking at the Miami or because they
got kind of over confident after those last two blowouts,
you know, it's hard to say, but clearly you know
that side of the ball, it just didn't didn't show
up the way it needed to, right.

Speaker 1 (01:02:55):
And this this was a rather it's so funny because
you know, you watch to this defense in this three
three five kind of uh, it's still early in the
season and a win over Alabama, you would have thought,
you know, so early, and look at Alabama now, how
much just one month of one month of football can

(01:03:16):
kind of change their fortune? Is this kind of just
still trying to find who the best eleven defenders are
on the defensive side, Is there like trying to figure
out just where the where the alignment is You talked
about the misalignment just kind of basic stuff like what's
what seems to be the read on just kind of
where the defense is. Is it just kind of a

(01:03:38):
couple of botched plays? What what do you think it is?

Speaker 5 (01:03:42):
You know, I think overall it was just, you know,
they just didn't play with the same kind of just
aggressiveness and physicality that we saw in the Alabama game.
And I think that, you know, that's where you know,
I think there's a little bit of clarity now. You know,
after the Alabama game, you start thinking, well, man, this
defense by be a lot better than we expected. Because
I think for a lot of people, for myself for sure,

(01:04:04):
I thought the defense was going to be the big
question coming into the season. I just didn't know. I
thought the offense would be a lot better. I wasn't
sure about the defense. But then the way they're played
against Alabama, You're like, Okay, these guys might be a
lot better than we gave them credit for. But then
you see Virginia and I think the difference is it's
really as simple as they're not talented enough to just
beat teams by just being out there. You know, they

(01:04:26):
have to play the way they did against Alabama, and
that was you know, just you know, relentless, reckless, abandon
throwing their bodies all over the place, being more physical,
knocking ball carriers back. This was the exact opposite. Virginia
kind of dragged Florida State defenders with them, And to me,
that's a lot of mindset and you have to bring
that into the game. You can't just show up in

(01:04:48):
the middle of the game and try to figure that out.
So I really think it's as simple as that. Yes,
they made some mistakes, but I think more importantly they
just had to get back to playing the way they
did against Alabama, which is more of the kind of
the underdog US against the world mentality. Then maybe they
were as the number eight team in the country going
to play in unranked Virginia.

Speaker 1 (01:05:08):
Stand by, Ira, I'll keep you for one more segment
as we now look forward to the Miami game. Reminder,
and who needs a reminder for this Florida State. Miami
is gonna be huge here in town Saturday, October fourth,
seven thirty. It's gonna be the ABC primetime game that's
gonna be probably that's gonna be massive. But we got

(01:05:30):
more coming up with Irishchefelle from war chant dot Com
previewing Miami, Florida State coming up this weekend.

Speaker 7 (01:05:36):
Next.

Speaker 1 (01:05:51):
Irishchafelle from war chant dot Com joining me here on
the Morning Show. We just recapped the Virginia game, kind
of diagnosing what some of the things were looking forward
to to Miami now, and I guess my mind is
actually now thinking past than just Miami. Right. I mentioned
in the last segment look at Alabama, how much one
month of a season can make. Hear me out, Ira,

(01:06:14):
this happens all the time in college football. Right Just
last season, Ohio State loses in the final week of
the year and makes a college football playoff run and
wins the national Championship. It's almost as if sometimes sometimes
getting this out of the way can be the lynchpin

(01:06:34):
or the galvanizing effect to propel moving forward. It's like, Okay,
we got that out of the way. What does the
locker room make up of Florida State like? Is that
maturity there to be able to say like, okay, all right,
that's done. Put it in the past. We got Miami
and the rest of the season going forward. Is the
stock of Florida State's locker room kind of there for

(01:06:55):
that kind of mentality, And you.

Speaker 5 (01:06:57):
Know, I think that. You know, certainly that's the hope.
And I actually wrote about this in a piece I
just posted on our site that you know, in the
old days, if you had a loss, sometimes it would
just knock you out of your season was over. Yeah,
there was no playoffs, and so you had to learn
that lesson one season that apply it the next season.

(01:07:18):
The good thing now is there is a playoff, so
you can learn that lesson and adjust to it. So yeah,
to me, it's as simple as I think Tony White
and Mike Garvell as they pull up the film and
show the defense. Listen, this is what you look like
when you play it against Alabama, this is what you
look like when you play against Virginia. You get to
choose now who you want to be and how you
want this season to go. Because, as I said earlier,

(01:07:40):
I'm convinced now this offense is very good. Like it's
better than I expected for you to go on the
road and put up five hundred yards of offense and
score thirty five points in regulation. Like, this is a
good offense, good enough to win a lot of games
and be in the playoff. It's up to the defense.
And so yeah, if they learned that lesson. I think,
you know, this Miami game is huge, but it's not
like they're a huge underdog. I think it's the point

(01:08:02):
spreads less than a touchdown. So if you can win
this game, you might still be favored in every game
you have remaining. And so yeah, everything's still in front
of them. But they it's up to them, you know.
That's the good thing. They don't need some miracles. They
have the players to do it. They just have to
play like they did in that opening game Miami itself.

Speaker 1 (01:08:20):
Now to this game specifically, Miami's got veteran quarterback Carson
Beck transfer from Georgia. They've got a pretty darn good
rushing attack, which is kind of the thing that Florida
State's defense struggled with a little bit this this week.
Where does Florida State matchup? I guess it's it's twofold, right,
It's obviously, how does Castellanos lead the offense against Miami's

(01:08:43):
defense and where does in turn, you know, the Florida
State defense respond to kind of a veteran presence in
the Miami offense. It feels like there's that's that's that
is a heck of a matchup to have to deal
with on two fronts.

Speaker 5 (01:08:56):
Yeah, it should be a great game, you know. I
think that, You know, you can look at things a
lot of different ways if you look at it from
the standpoint of Miami has not played on the road yet,
so you know, their offense has not had to play
in front of a hostile territory. They've They've gotten to
play their games at home, which is a big difference
I think for Florida State from a schematic standpoint or
from a matchup standpoint, They've got to do a great

(01:09:16):
job against Carson Beck just getting him under pressure. He's
a completely different quarterback if he has time and if
he doesn't have time. And when he was in Georgia
when he got into trouble was when teams could pressure him.
So far the season, that hasn't really happened. Teams haven't
gotten him too much under pressure. When they have, I
think Florida forced him into an interception where they got

(01:09:37):
a little pressure on him, and that's going to be
the key. Florest State has to be aggressive. They have
to get in the backfield and affect him as a passer.
If they do that, yeah, man, I think they can
have a real you know, a lot of opportunities. On
the flip side, Miami's defense looks amazing, but I don't
know that they played a really good offense. You know,
the first half against Notre Dame. Notre Dames quarterback didn't
look good at all. He was a first time starter.

(01:09:58):
In the second half, he's set down and their offense
played really well. So I think this is gonna be
the best test that Miami's defense faces, and Floord State's
going to be at home. So yeah, I think there's
a lot of reasons you could say you expect this
to be a great battle, and I honestly think it
could come down to the wire very likely.

Speaker 1 (01:10:16):
Ira, thanks so much for joining us as always appreciated.

Speaker 5 (01:10:19):
Have a good one you too, take care, Thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:10:23):
Yeah, this will be one heck of we get. This
past weekend was a great weekend for college football. Now
with this one kind of being showcase for us here
locally and attention nationally, Like I mentioned, Ira, even even
around town. Nationally speaking, this is far from over right.

(01:10:49):
Florida State season is not done. Everyone knows that, but
you have to say it out loud from time to time.
I feel like because you just live in the age
of you know, perfection, but you don't have to be
any We got more here on the Morning show coming
up next. After a brief interruption to it's a nice

(01:11:18):
interruption to discuss some things other than the darkness of
the news, talk about sports. Let's go back to the darkness.
Here we go. Etsy Witches. No, I did not say
a bad word on the air. No, this is literally
the story you've met some of you have probably seen
this already. Apparently Etsy Witches reportedly placed curses on Charlie Kirk.

(01:11:45):
Days before the assassination. A left wing writer used Etsy
to procure the services of women claiming to be witches,
and an article published only two days before Charlie Kirk
was assassinated, a writer at the far left outlet Wait
for It Jezebel detailed her experience working with witches in
an attempt to place a curse on Kirk and silence

(01:12:08):
his message. The article, titled we paid some Etsy Witches
to curse Charlie Kirk, was written by a person named
Claire Guidan. I don't know how to say it. It
has since been taken down, but internet archive is there.
Let's see if Internet archive Oh yes, thank you Blaze

(01:12:28):
TV for putting the archive version on it. This is
September eighth, twenty twenty five, and this was their subtitle.
If the far right misogynist with a bad haircut wants
to villainize independent women, Jezebel is more than happy to
be the hag of his nightmares.

Speaker 6 (01:12:50):
Listen.

Speaker 1 (01:12:50):
I know it gets talked about so much and people
use it all the time, and it's a good Bible verse,
but it is true. It is so true. We wrestle
not against flesh and blood, but powers and principalities. This
darkness has real, I hate to say, an efficacious power.

(01:13:14):
Christ is king overall. He is declared king over all
the Earth, over all the universe. In this temporal world,
there is still darkness. That is true. It makes the
importance of mission work and the gospel preaching and street
evangelism and all these things. Taking the Gospel to the

(01:13:34):
four corners of the world to bring what is darkness
into the light makes it all the more important because
we are dealing with the reality of real, actual darkness
that spills over into this life that we know and
affects us daily. You know it right when you're like

(01:14:02):
when you're in a town that you're unfamiliar, and you're
just like, I got a bad feeling. There are these
unseen things that happen to us, that are within us.
You know, from time to time, the Holy Spirit guiding you.

(01:14:23):
It's not a tangible thing. I'm holding a pen in
my hand, I'm holding my phone in my other hand.
These are tangible, real things that you can grab your
own flesh and blood. You can give your wife and
children a hugging and kiss that is real flesh and blood.
But there's so much unseen in this cosmic battle that's

(01:14:45):
going on. The Age of the atheist is over. Nobody
believes in atheism anymore. I know what you're I know
what atheists are going to say, Well, I choose not
to or what would they say. I don't even know
what they would say now because they've taken form in

(01:15:07):
such different iterations, where like the the atheism of Richard
Dawkins has kind of just become a meme, right, the
atheism of Christopher Hitchens. Nobody believes that stuff anymore. Right,
everyone can clearly see And if it didn't happen for
you in twenty twenty like it did for me, I

(01:15:28):
was never an atheist. I never was. Grew up in
a Christian home. I've always been a Christian. But the
reality that hits you like a cold splash of water
in the face of just what we're dealing with. Was
that moment for me. In twenty twenty, the Charlie Kirk
assassination was that for many of us again, now like
it's this fresh splash of cold water, except it feels

(01:15:50):
like the darkness is accelerating so much so that there
are actual witches out there who I do not believe
that they are just practicing their dark magic in a
vacuum and it has no efficacious power. No, I think

(01:16:12):
what they are doing is they are actually entertaining darkness
that has real power, and to combat that, the power
of Christ is the only thing that can repel that.
It's the only light that is truly immune to the dark. Now,

(01:16:36):
I don't know what this means about did this actually
did this curse actually come to fruition and the cosmic
darkness that led to a demoniac individual to do that?
I don't know. I'm not God. I don't exactly know
what directly leads to what. Sometimes, but man, the age

(01:16:59):
of the atheists is over. Get that through your noggin.
Twenty seven minutes after the hour, We've got a half
hour left here on the Morning Show without Preston Scott.

Speaker 2 (01:17:11):
Get off your mind, get it off your chest. You
have a story you want to share, Write him at
Preston at iHeartRadio dot com. Welcome to the Morning Show
with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1 (01:17:28):
Thirty six minutes after the hour, I'm grant talent feeling
it for Preston. Preston will be back tomorrow. But while
we're here at this time of the show, we've got
the big stories in the press box. It's a time
where we recap, we go through in case you're driving
to work, or you were you know, had to tune

(01:17:50):
in then come back, whatever the case may be, the
big story was from yesterday that was supplanting the other stories. However,
I think think I could rightly make a case that
just the chaos that is ensuing is the big story
in the press box. Because the church shooting and a

(01:18:11):
subsequent fire at a Mormon church in Grand Blanc, Michigan.
Grand blank Blanc, Michigan. One of the ways is the
correct pronunciation. I'm sure a Mormon church at least four
have passed as a result. Two were killed by gunfire,

(01:18:32):
two were killed as a result of the fire. There
have been no updates here on this Fox article that
I'm looking at since five point nine am, right before
we got started on the air this morning. During the shooting,
it's reported that attendees were shielding their children. Grand Blanc

(01:18:58):
Township Police Chief William Renner Regner sorry, I'd also like
to acknowledge the heroism of not only the first responders,
but the people who were inside the church at the time.
They were shielding the children who were also present within
the church, moving them to safety. I just can't even fathom.

(01:19:20):
But the identified lone gunman was a forty year old
Marine veteran from Burton, Michigan, who drove a truck to
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints, set
it on fire and open fire. So the total is dead,
The total dead is four, seven are instable condition and

(01:19:41):
one is in critical condition, and authorities are expecting the worst.
There's potential for the total bodies recovered could potentially increase,
but we're hoping not pray not. That is paired with
a story on the topic of k paired with the

(01:20:01):
story from late Friday into the weekend, and that is
the mobilization by anti ICE anarcho communists.

Speaker 5 (01:20:15):
Right.

Speaker 1 (01:20:16):
This is from Zero Hedge Anarchist News, the long running
anarcho communist propaganda site popular among ANTIFA types, issued a
movement order this week, this was last week, instructing all
anarchists across the country to disrupt operations at ICE facilities
in every city and to celebrate life with fire against
the death March of American law and order. That's what

(01:20:38):
they called for, and as a result, the Trump administration
is sending troops. DOJ agents are being supplied to Portland
to protect and keep ICE agents safe. This was the
extension of the quote from this anarchist group. We invite

(01:21:00):
all anarchists across the country not only do occupy and
disrupt operations at ICE facilities in every city, but to
celebrate life with fire against the death March of American
law and order, with tactical diversity. Let's meet in the
streets and wage a carnival of war against ICE and
all authority. Having to stop myself because now it is

(01:21:26):
not the time to speak flippantly anarchists us is kind
of like an aggregator site. I guess if you're on
the far left. FBI Director Cash Pattel. He noted that
FBI Dallas and FBI Headquarters have been working twenty four

(01:21:46):
to seven to seize devices, exploit data, and process writings
obtained on location and in the subjects person, residents, and bedroom.
This is directly related to the attack on ICE agents
last week. Opening fire being a bad shot. Frankly, I
mean not surprising, but that was FBI Director Cash Pttel

(01:22:13):
in the wake of the ICE anti ice attack last
week in Texas, forty minutes after the hour chaos in America.
The Trump administration has the mandate to bring peace.

Speaker 2 (01:22:26):
Audio Magazine a journey into whatever is left of journalism
and always pointing out and correcting what is not. The
Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1 (01:22:48):
All right, Preston these pumps, all right, all right, Sorry,
I was going to say something, but I stopped myself.
While I'm being serious. Now all silliness is put aside

(01:23:11):
while the chaos in America's streets is unfolding. Land, our
actual American land, is being purchased by foreigners. This story
from the Epic Times in a State I love I
went to college in this state. I think these are
some of the best people in the world, and there

(01:23:36):
aren't many states in the Union. I love living in Florida.
This is where my family is, this is where my
wife's family is. This is home, right. I don't have
intentions to go elsewhere, but if I did, I might
consider going to Oklahoma because it is so friendly to

(01:23:57):
our way of life and the people are just amazing.
This headline from the Epic Times Oklahoma overrun with Chinese
operated marijuana farms. A vast quantity of marijuana grown in
the state leaves for the black market. Officials in Oklahoma
say that eighty five percent of marijuana grow sites have
Chinese connections. Chinese gangs are taking advantage of loose marijuana

(01:24:21):
rules in Oklahoma to grow and transport marijuana and other
states for sale on the black market. Oklahoma narcotics officials
told Congress that one hundred and fifty three billion dollars
worth of marijuana is unaccounted for and likely leaving the
state for the black market and other states. As many
as eighty five percent of licensed grow sites have connections
with Chinese owners or operators. According to Mark Woodward, he's

(01:24:45):
the information officer with the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics, and
since twenty twenty two, the state of Oklahoma's shut down
more than six thousand illegal growing operations. Most US states,
as we've kind of become aware in recent years, have
made marijuana legally available, but taxes and regulations have pushed
up its price, leaving an opening for black market sales.

(01:25:10):
Oklahoma approved medical marijuana in twenty eighteen, licensing its cultivation
and sale, and the state then reported an explosive growth
of growers as the law established no cap on the
number of farms that could be licensed to grow marijuana,
no limit on how many marijuana plants each farm could cultivate.
They took the complete you know, no rules right the

(01:25:32):
state of Florida, going through the licensing to become a
licensed grower, there are at least some you know, hoops
and regulations that is a deterrent for illegal growers. But
in a state like Oklahoma, where it just was, it
became a free for all kind of instantly. Goodness gracious.

(01:25:56):
This is paired with I recall listening to one of
Tucker Carlson's podcast over the summer his residence. I believe
is in Maine. He had someone in who's on the
ground reporter there talking about the Chinese purchased land that's
taking place in Maine. Two many of them are getting
into the marijuana business. Here's the point. Our enemies, foreign

(01:26:21):
and domestic want you doped up, sluggish, sluggardly, because that's
when they frankly keep you down. When you are soberly
aware of what's going on around you, and you're physically fit,
your brain has plenty of mental acuity, and you have

(01:26:45):
not deep fried your brain from TikTok and weed and
fried food and seed oils, and when you are at
peak performance, you're acutely aware of what's going on and
the play that's being run. The advent of these vices,

(01:27:07):
right is contra the types of freedoms that our grandfather had.
So in one sense we have more freedom in the
modern age, and then another sense, we have less freedom.
Your great great grandfather he could hunt across the street.
People didn't fence in their properties. You could, you know,

(01:27:30):
plant a stake in the ground and say that this
is my home, and you were free to do that.
But now we have more freedom, and what's the freedom
porn weed fan duel, sports betting apps, all the vices
you could possibly want at your fingertips door dash. How
you rage against the dying of the light is by
self discipline. That's my admonishment amidst a cacophony of weed.

(01:27:58):
I hate this man. Where does the time go? Thank
you to Preston for having me come in and sit
in the captain's chair and fill in this morning. It's

(01:28:19):
always a pleasure to be back and get some things
off my chest. It had been gosh, three and a
half months, almost four since I was in and so
it was good being able to get caught up with
everyone here from Ira at War, chant here, from doctor Camps.
Today was a good show. This is lastly, as we

(01:28:40):
kind of wrap up. This is odd. I saw this
last week but didn't dig too deeply. At first. Trump
indicated that the United States was interested in reacquiring Bagram
Air Base in Afghanistan, which I thought was very odd
because it's random. I don't I mean, I kind of

(01:29:06):
just let Afghanistan be. I suppose that would be my
kind of role We've got. As I mentioned throughout this show,
this is a three hour show of the chaos that
is ensuing in America's streets, and I think we ought
to look inward for a time. That's not to forsake
foreign realities, but I think our attention should be at home.

(01:29:29):
And then in response, Beijing in a joint statement that
the Chinese, the Russians, the Iranians, and the pakistanis calling
for respect for afghan sovereignty to counter US military presence.
In a show of united opposition, China, Russia, Pakistan, and
Iran jointly called for respect for the sovereignty of Afghanistan.

(01:29:51):
This was last week, following remarks by US President Donald
Trump that his country will take back a former military
air base in the country. I hope that materializes to nothing.
We don't Afghanistan, they pride themselves on being the graveyard
of empires. The Soviets tried it, the British tried it,

(01:30:12):
We tried it.

Speaker 2 (01:30:16):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:30:18):
Maybe there's something more that I don't know, But my
you know, affinity, my kind of Pat Buchanan instincts are
kind of like like Pat Buchanan like spidy senses kind
of tingling right now, going eh, maybe maybe not, maybe
not the best idea right now, especially if it's gonna
send our enemies into the hands of one another, just

(01:30:42):
maybe maybe.

Speaker 2 (01:30:43):
Let it be brought to you by Baron No Heating
and Air. It's the morning show on WFLA.

Speaker 1 (01:30:53):
Quite the show. Quite the show. We went through so
much today. There's a war against ice agents right now
from the attack at the Dallas ice facility, but the

(01:31:14):
ICE agents that were attacked on Sunday. The big story
in the press box was obviously the shooting and subsequent
fire at a Mormon church Latter day Saints church in Michigan.
Tragedy there. Florida issuing a pornographic gaming site. Don't ask
me what pornographic gaming is. I don't know, Thank God,

(01:31:34):
I don't know. Trump plans to deploy military personnel to
Portland case Antifa starts to pop off. Doctor Joe Camps
was here, Iris Chaffelle, We talked Florida State football. It
was so good to be here. Hope everyone has a
great week. Preston's back tomorrow.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
