Speaker 1 (00:14):
So I have a question for pastors and church leaders
right now, because we've got a lot of people come
to church for the first time, some of it in
response to Charlie Kirk's murder. We've got a lot of
young men coming in for the first time in response
to what's going on within the culture. And we should
be encouraged by that. But the question I got to
ask is what are they going to find when they
walk into your church? Because if they find a bunch
of weak, feckless, mealy mouthed men that are afraid to

(00:35):
boldly preach the gospel or speak on the issues of
the day because they don't want to offend anyone, they're
going to turn around and walk out. Because what they're
looking for right now is strength and meaning and purpose
and the truth. And unfortunately, we got a lot of
churches that like to preach a boy band version of Jesus,
which is quite frankly heretical. Yes Jesus is loving, Yes
Jesus is compassionate. He is also strong and just, And

(00:58):
is that reflected in you, Because if it is, we
have a unique opportunity to point people to the only
thing that can save them and this country. But if
it isn't, well, we're gonna have to account for that,
aren't we. So let's make sure that we're Let's make
sure we preach a gospel that is worthy of the
God that we serve.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
Good morning, friends, Welcome Tuesday. On the Morning Show with
Preston Scott, we begin with Matthew seven thirteen and fourteen.
In the spirit of the words of State Representative Nick
Fredis of Virginia, Enter by the narrow gate. For the
gate is wide, and the way is easy, that leads

(01:41):
to destruction, and those who enter by it are many.
For the gate is narrow, and the way is hard,
that leads to life, and those who find it are few.
See what he's talking about correctly? Might add? Is this

(02:03):
watered down church atmosphere that is being created today and
a lot of the mega churches are responsible for it,
although there are some pitiful little churches doing the same thing,
trying to win a crowd by being you know, they

(02:25):
take that scripture and they inverted. Why is the gate
that leads to everlasting life? And narrow? Is that gate that.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
Takes those few sorry souls.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Straight to the pit of hell? No? Why is the
path that leads to hell narrow is the path that
leads to God. Here's how I've always likened it, friends,
is an actual rigid gait, and all of the fluff

(03:01):
and all of the nonsense it can't fit through it.
It's like I get this imagery in my mind of
going in single file and all of the other stuff
just doesn't fit. You can't carry it, it doesn't go

(03:21):
through the gate. That's the gospel that Nick is talking
about that needs to be present in churches today. And
I will tell you that the churches that are teaching
God's word without apology are the churches that are vibrant,

(03:42):
that are accomplishing things for God because young people are
being drawn to those churches. There's some young men that
are being just like always, that are being led to
their destruction by the thinking of the world. There is

(04:04):
a way that seems right to a man, but in
the end it leads to destruction. And and there's a
percentage of people that are always going that route. But
but there's a there's a movement of foot right now.
There are there are revivals happening on college campuses. There
are things taking place where God's word is preached faithfully.

(04:28):
It never returns void. It always does something to accomplish
his purposes. By the way, if you're just if you
just stumbled into the radio program, how are you? How
you doing this morning?

Speaker 3 (04:45):
Ed?

Speaker 2 (04:46):
Good to have you with us. Yeah, see animals. No,
I'm just kidding.

Speaker 4 (04:52):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
That is Jose he's looking. Uh, he's he's got the hooded,
shrouded biker black thing going today. He's running the program.
I'm Preston Scott. Welcome to my show, and it's great
to be with you at his show fifty four seventy
seven more on this date, October twenty first. Next on

(05:15):
the Morning Show with Preston Scott. All right about this time,
each and every morning we take a peek at the
American Patriots almanacs. See what happened in history. Twenty first

(05:40):
of October seventeen ninety seven, the US Navy frigate USS Constitution,
Old Ironsides is launched in Boston. I've shared this. I
have been on that ship. If I'm not mistaken, one

(06:01):
of our kids has a flag that was flown. They
offer to do that by a US flag and then
they fly it on the USS Constitution, which I maybe
just ceremonially, but I believe is still part of the

(06:21):
United States Navy officially. But you can see that boat,
you can go aboard it. I don't know if it's
still docked in Boston or if they've they were doing
renovations when we went on it, but you can still
go on board. And it was just spectacular. It was
so cool. Highly recommended. It's the only reason to go
to Boston. It's the only reason do that and catch

(06:44):
a Red Sox game. Sometime. We watched the Twins in
the Red Sox play and we were near the Green Monster,
and they have a family section at Red Sox games.
They have an entire area just for families, and it's
you're spared the indignities of some of the rest of
the park, if you know what I mean. Eighteen sixty seven,

(07:06):
in Kansas, leaders of the Southern Plains Indians signed the
Medicine Lodge Treaty, in which they give up their hunting
grounds and agree to move to reservations in Oklahoma. Not
a good time in American history. We pulled some fast ones,
but it's part of the history we tell. We are

(07:29):
faithful to being true about our history, because only when
you share the whole story do you recognize the greatness
of this country to overcome such time periods. Eighteen seventy nine,
Thomas Edison invents the first practical electric incandescent lamp, and

(07:49):
in nineteen sixteen, the first ROTC units are established at
the University of Arkansas, University of Maine, Saint John's College, Annapolis, Texas,
A and M. College of Saint Thomas, Saint Paul, Minnesota,
and the Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina. So there you
have that. Today's National Apple Day, National Witch Hazel Day,

(08:18):
National Pharmacy Technician Day, National Reptile Awareness Day. Oh yeah,
I'm aware of that reptile right there, Thank you very much.
I walk the other way. National Pumpkin Cheese Cake Day. Ooh,
I bet that's pretty good pumpkin cheesecake. I've never had it,

(08:38):
but I would imagine with the right crust, that would
be incredible. National Pro Life Day of solid silent Solidarity.
And then the one that's the most intriguing to me,
not necessarily important, intriguing is it is Back to the
Future Day, October twenty First. If you remember the movie,

(09:07):
the trilogy was brilliant, but the first signs of time
travel through the windshield of the infamous DeLorean. In Back
to the Future two, they were looking ahead to October
twenty first, twenty fifteen, and so while we're well past that,

(09:30):
we are in fact on that date. So it's Back
to the Future day sixteen minutes past the hour, come
back with it, did you know? And an interesting discovery

(09:52):
twenty one minutes past this weekend Tallahasseeans listen up costco
on lan Yap, way lang Yap. That's how you pronounce that.
It's line Yap. It's a Cajun term operation Medicine Cabinet.
It's a medicine collection event in partnership with us DEA's
National Prescription Drug take Back Day. And so what you

(10:16):
do is you bring your unused prescription meds. You do
not bring medical waste, You do not bring thermometers, you
do not bring sharps. You just bring your leftover prescriptions.
You take the label off, exit out whatever, and hand

(10:41):
it off and they will dispose of it properly. They
do this annually. So Southern Waste is heading this up
and we're proud to be one of the co sponsors
of the event. And so if you do not mind
bring that stuff it's safer for everybody that way, no
one accidentally ingested at home, and it doesn't get into

(11:02):
the water system. You don't do that. You don't flush
it down the toilet. This is the way to go
about it, all right. So that is this Saturday from
ten to two at the Costco.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
On lang Yap Way.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
There you have it, all right, I said, an interesting
discovery this is. This is fascinating to me. You know
about the big statues rock quarried statues on Easter Island
right now. First I didn't even know how you get there.

(11:36):
It's a I mean, there's part of me that just
had this idea that this is just this little remote
island that you sail by, and they're these big old
heads staring at you. Easter Island. You fly to Santiago, Chili,
and then you have to take a six hour flight

(11:57):
to an international airport they have on the island Polynesian Island.
That it's a thing who knew, probably some of you.
So I would bet that there are people listening right
now that have been there. I bet that because when

(12:18):
I come up with these bizarre little stories about places
around the world, and certainly across the country, I inevitably
have someone saying, yeah, I was just there last week,
and they've got pictures of themselves going.

Speaker 4 (12:29):
Oh, what's up.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
Researchers say they know how the stone statues got there,
and no, it's not UFOs, it's not ancient aliens, although
I you know, Mexico could have sent some folks over
there too. They were carved and placed on Easter Island

(12:55):
between the twelfth and seventeenth centuries. Everyone's tried to figure
out how they got there. Though the structures appear to
be only heads, many of them have full bodies that
have been hidden below the surface by years and years
of sediment building up. The study, published in the Journal

(13:17):
of Archaeological Science by researchers Carl LiPo and Terry Hunt,
argue the heads were walked vertically, not horizontally, from a
nearby quarry. They analyzed nine hundred and sixty two statues
to their to reach their conclusion. Using three D modeling
statistical mapping, they found the heads, the D shaped bases,

(13:41):
and the forward lean made rope transport possible. Here's how
they did it. And I think anyone who's ever moved
something really heavy that you couldn't lift understands this principle.
Here's what they believe. They believe a team of men

(14:05):
using ropes to hold them upright. Literally, you know. You
let's say you've got a massive pot full of soil
and it's wet, and you need to move it, and
you walk it where you lift one side and then
pivot and lift the other and pivot and you walk
it back and forth. The legend says that those those

(14:29):
statues were walked, That the statues walked to their location.
They believe that's how it was done. That they were
made in such a way to allow for ropeage to
hold them upright, while others then lifted, pivoted, turned, lifted, pivoted,

(14:52):
and that's how they did it. They said that the
that would take roughly forty minutes with a team of
eighteen to move them to their locations. Statues were rocked

(15:13):
and pivoted along Eastern Island roads multiple people at a time,
making the process more efficient. They say the modeling fits,
that it fits the historical tradition as told by the
ancestral tribes that lived there about how it happened. And

(15:35):
now it makes some sense, at least to an old
guy who sometimes has to resort to moving things that way.
It was like, oh, yeah, I've done that, certainly, not
with a statue like that, but with other things where
it's like, I've got a couple of really big planters
in the back that are filled with soil, probably three

(15:58):
feet tall, and they are heavy. I'm not picking that up.
I'll blow a disc out of my back, but I
can rock it and move it back and forth just
like that. So makes a lot of sense to me.
All right, when we come back, we got the big
stories in the press box and yeah there, yeah, saucy
saucy this morning, and a listener just offer up there

(16:32):
pumpkin cheesecake recipe. Send it my way. My brother, come on.
Speaking of my brother, before I get to the big
stories in the press box, I mentioned this yesterday. I
have a brother, well, my my only surviving brother. My
other two brothers had passed away. Pat is a is

(16:58):
a sheriff's deputy in Ramsey County, Minnesota. So he's enduring
this absurdity that is Minnesota. Now, he's got to be
just heartbroken. He's lived most all of his life in
the Twin Cities. But I digress. He is part of

(17:19):
a YouTube channel called Live on Patrol Ramsey County Sheriff's Department,
and it's just forward facing camera. You hardly ever see him,
but you hear him all the time, and he's probably
on there once or twice a week maybe. Well, he
mentioned my when he's on and I happen to catch it,

(17:40):
I'm always texting him while while he's doing it. I'm
text bombing him all the time. And he mentioned I've
got a brother doing a radio show for iHeartRadio based
in Tallahassee. Well, we now have a listener from that,
a guy who followed pat from Texas. So we now

(18:00):
have a new listener in Texas because he followed my
brother on a YouTube channel and he checked out the
show and he wrote me yesterday saying, I love your
I've fallen in love with your program. It's awesome and
so you just never know. I sent a note to
my brother. I copied the note and sent it to
him and he was like, Oh, that's cool. I will

(18:23):
take help any way I can get it to promote
this show. Federal Appeals Court allows Trump's National Guard deployment
in Oregon. Now there's more to come on this story,
but the president can do it. Remember all the spiking
of the football they were doing over there. Second big story,

(18:46):
it came out yesterday that the Secret Service had found
a hunting stand adjacent to the Palm Beach International Airport
where the President gets off an on Air Force one
and so as a result, the President is now taking
the short stairs in the back of the plane to

(19:09):
get on board. And they're trying to figure out who
put the hunting stand up because there would be no
practical reason for it, although there's the possibility of it
being just an innocent little bird watchers stand or some
kids put something up there. But the bottom line is
it has a clear shot, literally clear shot, and it's

(19:34):
in the trees adjacent to the airport. So they're trying
to sort out we'll put this up there, They'll figure
it out. And CNN's Harriet Anton once again has shown
that the Democrats shut down to try to extort another
one point five trillion dollars for illegal alien healthcare and

(19:57):
to restore NPR funding is backfire. Trump's poll numbers are
going up, the Democrat numbers are cratering. They are clearly
being held responsible for this as well they should be,
So those are your big stories in the press box,
short versions, I grant you, but yes, forty minutes past

(20:18):
when we come back, a story that is very very
difficult to.

Speaker 5 (20:23):
Hear from Florida, Sunshine State to California, A scratch that
California is hopeless. For the rest, We're your Morning Show,
The Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
Okay, and I you know me unless you're brand new
to the program and you don't know me. When I
say this is not for everybody to hear, and certainly
not for children, I mean it. But I feel strongly

(21:13):
that this story needs to be shared. New York Times
has some details on it. Unbelievably, two kids are facing
felony counts. Children felony counts a nine to ten year

(21:36):
old felony attempted murder, four counts of rape, two counts
of felonious assault, strangulation and kidnapping. Cleveland, Ohio, Antavia Kennebrew. Kennebrew,

(22:00):
the mother of the victim, dropped off her daughter September
thirteenth at a family member's home in Cleveland. The child
walked out the front door and was savagely beaten by
a group of kids outside. This young girls, five years
of age. She was rushed to the hospital unresponsive at

(22:27):
the time she arrived. Girl's mom explained to Cleveland nineteen television,
what I saw was unbelievable. My daughter was not my daughter.
Her hair was scalped from her head, She had bruises

(22:48):
and blood all over her body. Her eyes were filled
with blood, her lips her mouth were filled with blood.
Her nails had debris and dirt stuck in it. She
was abducted, raped, scalped, beaten by a nine and ten
year old. Her daughter's having behavioral problems as a result

(23:16):
of the attack. You think she is mentally not okay.
Not getting justice for my daughter makes me feel like
I failed. Or I cannot sleep, I can barely eat.
I keep repeatedly seeing images of my baby in that field.
She is only five at least, say the investigation continues.

(23:43):
Here's why I talked to I'm talking about this story.
Who in God's name are the parents of these children?
How did they even know how to commit these vicious

(24:06):
acts of violence on another, on a child nine and ten.
When I read this story, it brought back a lot

(24:32):
of bad memories for me. It brought back memories of
being on the grand jury for six months, and some
of the cases involved children who were horrifically beaten and
lost their lives, were victims of violence or abuse. But

(24:59):
I felt it important to tap you on the shoulder
and ask you if you This is a classic question
that was asked by television stations at the end of
their broadcast when I was growing up. It was at

(25:24):
the end of the newscast, and the anchor would say
something like, it's ten thirty. Do you know where your
children are? Have a good night. I have to know

(25:52):
I have to be talking to the parents of these
two children. If I'm investigators, they are sitting down in
front of me. That's just yeah. Forty seven minutes after

(26:15):
the hour, A little bit of a follow up to
that next I said. It was a little bit of

(26:45):
an addendum to the previous story. Charlotte, North Carolina. Now
police there will say that they have experienced a twenty
percent reduction in violent crime, which includes homicide, rapes, robberies,
aggravated assaults. Also covers shootings, but more than half of

(27:09):
those arrested for violent crimes have prior arrests, including one
fifteen year old teenager who has been arrested one hundred
and eleven times in the last two years, and he

(27:31):
has just been released again. On this kid's phone just
released with the following Google searches. What is the charge
for killing an officer? Is police murder a charge? What

(27:53):
is capital murder? These are the things that a fifth
ten year old with the possession of multiple firearms had searched.
Despite his history and repeat offender's status, he was released
back into the community last month. This is the same

(28:18):
city where the guy stabbed the Ukrainian refugee in the
neck and killed her. These are communities run by dem
mo krats that have district attorneys that are weak and

(28:45):
sorry and likely got into office funded by George Soros's operation.
Now that may not be the case in all of
these situations, but the George Soros effort to get district
attorneys elected that will be light on crime. Ask yourself

(29:07):
this question, why Why does George Soros care whether district
attorneys allow kids like this back out on the street.
Why they allow people like Clantifa protesters back out on
the street. Why does George Why is George Soros and

(29:27):
his son Alex why are they investing literally millions upon
millions of their dollars to get people like this elected,
that will not prosecute, that will not seek the highest
maximum punishment for the charges they are they are guilty of.
Why and in fact are let go? Why now answer

(29:51):
the question, have a little conversation out loud with me.
Why does this matter to him? It's part of the
whole rules for radicals of Sawlolensky. This is part of
the same playbook. It's about sowing discord, it's about sowing chaos, anarchy, violence,

(30:13):
It's about disrupting. That's what this is about. This isn't
just a bunch of softies on crime. It's far more
sophisticated than that. Friends. This is about intentionally bringing fear

(30:33):
into cities and communities. This is what people like Jeremy Mattlowe,
Jack Porter want to do Ryan Ray in communities like
Florida's Capital City. They want a weak crime police force
to not be able to address crime properly. They want

(30:55):
people like Jack Campbell out. They want a saw Don
Crime DA. They want school boards that turn the other cheek.
They're accomplishing some of it. Morning How You Doing It?

(31:27):
Tuesday on the Morning Show with Thrustin Scott and Preston's
Jose lots to talk about on the program. Next hour,
we will we found ourselves an expert with the Heritage Foundation,
Daniel Flesh, will join us. We will talk Israel Hamas.
We will talk about the history of the Islamic Jew

(31:48):
battles and try to try to give us a little
bit better understanding of what's in front of us. And
I've cautioned, I've suggest yes, did you temper your expectations?
We'll talk about that. I hey, I noticed yesterday and
it's probably been out for a little while. Pfizer is

(32:09):
back with the full court press on getting yourself a
COVID vaccine. I honestly, I don't know how these people
sleep with them sleep at night. I don't get it.
So they're telling you, people sixty five and older, and
I'm one of you, just go ahead and get the

(32:30):
COVID shot while you get your flu shot. I'm not
getting either, now you do you? I'm not telling you
what to do. I'm telling you not on this side
of eternity. Am I getting a flu shot, let alone
of a COVID shot? Are you kidding me? No chance,

(32:54):
no chance? But you knew you. I want to spend
a little bit of time on the No King's weekend.

(33:15):
It speaks to how deceived so many are. Now, as
I've said, Trump does not help himself with how he
conducts business. At times he doesn't. That said, this idea

(33:37):
of violence and rhetoric on both sides of the al
uh huh, nope, nope, no, no, no, no, no, no no,
that's that's just a complete lie. It is not both
sides of the ol friends, because when a right wing

(34:02):
wingnut does something stupid, we condemn it. We don't celebrate it.
We don't care who the target is. We don't celebrate.
We don't celebrate murdering and assassinating other people. We don't
hold up signs calling for the death of Barack Obama,
Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, or whoever. We don't do things

(34:25):
like that because it's morally reprehensible. Kings get guillotines, was
a prominent message at these rallies across the country. This
is people on the left side of the aisle openly

(34:48):
holding up signs calling for the death of the President
of the United States, calling for the death of his
deputy chief of staff, Stephen Miller. Michigan protestered protesters carried
signs advocating death and violence to Republicans and federal immigration employees.

(35:13):
One guy posted brilliantly in response to all of this,
and that one guy, of course, is Robbie Starbuck. No King,
says the party of elderly tyrants, who censored dissenters, tried
to force mass and backs the entire country, and got
rich in office. So these are the people saying no Kings.

(35:35):
The party of Chuck Schumer, Bernie Sanders, Nancy Pelosi, Ron Wyden,
Ed Markey. Average age eighty years of age, average time
in office forty two years, average net worth fifty two
point eight million dollars been Benjamin Dominic. Nancy Pelosi's been

(36:06):
in Congress since I was five. This would make her
the seventh longest reigning living monarch, surpassing Hans Autumn, the
second Prince of Liechtenstein. The irony of the no King's rally,
writes one US congresswoman, is that the Democrats shut down

(36:29):
the federal government on October first, which gave Trump even
more power because he asked to. He has to assert
more power because Congress isn't working. They've shut down the government.
Guy named Seraj Hashmi posted went to the No King's

(36:50):
protest in read Saudi Arabia, Now I'm to be publicly
executed this afternoon, and then Michigan writer Dave Bondi wrote
back in twenty twelve, CNN ran an opinion piece saying
liberals wanted Obama to be king instead of president. Fast forward,

(37:12):
many of these same voices now calling Trump an authoritarian.
The double standard is clear. There's more eleven past the hour,
We're a little late coming back. Good morning.

Speaker 6 (37:31):
On news radio one hundred point seven. Double USLA.

Speaker 2 (37:42):
Now. One of the things that was interesting to some
is the politicians linked to this No King's protest. Chuck
Schumer made an appearance in New York. He of course
has to Chuck Schumer is worried that AOC is going
to challenge him for his Senate seat, absent anyone else

(38:08):
with any common sense, And do you see New Yorkers
electing someone with common sense? AOC could win. That petulant
little child, the Bartendris who answered a casting call. But

(38:35):
at the Not Kings protests taking place in New York City,
they had signs labeling Democrats like Avin Newsom, JB. Pritzker,
AOC as Antifa. Now consider Antifa has been designated a

(38:55):
terrorist organization by the federal government, so we now have
three leading politicians. Other posters had the images of Bernie Sanders,
Zorn Mamdani, Jimmy Kimmel. So they're being bunched together with Clantifa. Interesting,

(39:27):
but remember rule number one of illiberals you remember do
you know it? Do you know it by heart? By
now they are and they do what they accuse others
of being and doing. And so at the rally they

(39:51):
said NYPD KKK Ice Border Patrol, they're all the same,
comparing them to the KKK so Ice New York PD,
They're all the same. They're the same as the KKK.

(40:13):
First rule, they are what they accuse others of being.
Wisconsin Democrats got busted for posting a picture wishing death
on President Trump last week. It was is he dead

(40:33):
yet now? The mostly peaceful protester calling for the guillotine
for Donald Trump. Josh Showman, a Republican Washington County executive
running for governor, said hey, Wisconsin Dems, why did you
delete your tweet calling for President Trump to be killed?

(41:00):
Looked at the photos they were almost always very tightly cropped,
because that leads you to think there's more people there
than are there. And you know what else I noticed
about these rallies. There are a bunch of old, crusty
white illiberals, bunch of old saggy skinned hippies. You can

(41:29):
almost see him gathering in their VW's, their tied eyed shirts,
smoking a joint. Is He's like the old days, isn't it?

Speaker 3 (41:42):
What what'd you say?

Speaker 2 (41:45):
He's like the old days?

Speaker 3 (41:47):
Man, Yeah, just like the old days. Sorry, why are
we here?

Speaker 2 (42:00):
Exactly? It's incredible, it really is. Seventeen past the hour,
come back speaking of professional protesters. Yeah, yeah, do a

(42:20):
little scratching here with h twenty two past the hour
of the morning show, Bill Maher. You know, I keep hoping.
I did a commentary yesterday about the fact that you know,
there John Fetterman, who we all thought was nuts and
and and there's no doubt Democrats think he is, because

(42:42):
they're trying to run him out, because he keeps telling
them they're being stupid, they're responsible for the shutdown. He
calls them out over their whole anti semitism. He doesn't
agree with republic on a whole bunch of things, but
he's a reasonable Democrat and that he'll sit down, let's talk.

(43:08):
And then there's Bill Maher. He gives me hope because
they haven't canceled him yet. He has called out the
cancel culture for a few years now, he's been all
about it. But he made a great observation. He had

(43:28):
Mark Cuban on, and Mark Cuban hates Trump, and he said,
we're the protesters. Suddenly the kafia wearing college kids are
real quiet. He's referring to the protesters that have been

(43:52):
endlessly complaining on campus about Palestine and how Israel is
so opressive. The same protesters that have been harassing Jewish
students on college campuses, making it unsafe for them at times,
attacking them, surrounding them, keeping them from going to classes.

(44:18):
He's pointing out that as Hamas is executing its own
people and videotaping it, displaying it for all to see.
Mars saying, where are the protesters now? Where all of

(44:40):
the kafia wearing college students? Where are they?

Speaker 6 (44:45):
What?

Speaker 2 (44:45):
You got nothing to say? So you only have something
to say of Israel, which, oh, by the way, was
responding to the attacks on its citizens. But when Hamas
is engaging in brutality against its own people. You got nothing,

(45:09):
let me. I'm gonna I'm gonna challenge you. Dig deeper.
Great analysis by Bill Maher. Not analysis, observation. I'm going
to offer you some analysis. The observation is the professional
protesters have nothing to say about this. Why because professionals

(45:29):
reflect the values of their employer. These are professional protesters.
These students are, in one way, shape or form, being
compensated for their their uprising. Why are they silent when

(45:51):
Hamas commits atrocities Because they're reflecting the views of the
people paying them. The George soros Is of this world,
the people like that that are funneling money into these groups,
making sure these kids have donuts and pizzas and their Starbucks. However,

(46:16):
they compensate them bus rides, singing songs. They are supporting
what Hamas is doing, and that's why there are no protests.
Twenty six minutes passed down, Come back with the big

(46:40):
stories in the press box.

Speaker 5 (46:42):
Decades of doing morning drive radio differently, doing it his
way like old Blue Eyes, except he has a little
more hair. The Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 2 (47:07):
Thirty five minutes past the hours, the Morning Show with
Preston Scott. Manly minute coming up in just a little bit,
very timely Manly minute. But the big stories in the
press box, Let's start with CNN just delivering what Matt
Vespo of town Hall calls brutal poll numbers to Democrats

(47:28):
on the shutdown. You know, Democrats are trying so hard
to spend this. Mike Johnson is articulating it very clearly.
This is the exact bill that Chuck Schumer wanted seven
months ago. It's the exact same bill, but now they're

(47:49):
not signing it. Why they think they can leverage the
time of year to get one point five trillion dollars
more funding for illegal immigrants to have health care and
for NPR to get funding. Again, friends, that's not what

(48:10):
America voted for. It just isn't. And this is the
detachment that the Democrat Party suffers from. They don't get it.
Even a large percentage of their own people did not
want the border invaded. Does not believe in allowing illegals

(48:32):
to have drivers' licenses and rights to vote, and illegal
health and literally subsidized health insurance, knowing that anyone that
walks into a US hospital has to be treated. They
have to be treated. Now what happens after that, that's

(48:55):
up to them. That's why we suggest your self deport
out here. Legally, just go ahead, take the thousand bucks,
get out of here. But the fact of the matter
is President Trump's popularity rating has gone up during this shutdown,

(49:17):
and it's allowing the President to articulate and some members
of Congress to articulate this vast gulf that exists between
the left and the right. The left wants this, and look,
we are all in agreement on our side of the

(49:39):
aisle that shutting down the government's not the worst thing
of the world. Now it's having impact, and as people
have emailed me, it has impact that we don't necessarily see.
I believe that. You know, I have a couple of

(50:00):
I have three bottle brush plants that are in pots,
and those pots are old, they've got some cracks, and
so what's happened is the bottle brush have grown so
big in these pots they've rooted into the ground through
the pots, and so when I lifted them up, it

(50:23):
revealed how deeply rooted it was, and it stunted them
for a while. That's the government right now, It's so
deeply rooted in areas it has no business being in
that when you when you lift it up and you
expose it, you stun it. It's and that's what we're

(50:44):
dealing with right now. There are areas of that that
we have government involvement that have no business being involved.
Remembering as a as a centerpiece to all of this,
that the US Constitution is about limiting government, not you me.
The Constitution limits government from rights that God's given us.

(51:09):
And so the reflection of it in this polling that
even CNN's recognizing Dems are losing their shirts on this.
I hope we stay the course. Fine, we'll just leave
things shut down. We'll let them own it. This is
not easy for people on that rely on the federal

(51:30):
government for different things. Federal Appeals Court is allowing the
president to put the National Guard back into Oregon. It's
not happening just yet, but the courts cleared the way
and Secret Service found a sniper's nest. It's that's what
it appears near the Palm Beach International Airport where Air

(51:53):
Force one is frequently landing and the President's getting off
and on. It was within it was it was it
was a shot. No one was there. They're trying to
figure out who put it up and why. There will
be video that they'll find, they'll figure out when this
thing got put up, and they'll start piecing things together.

(52:17):
But there's a group of people want him dead and
don't lose sight of that. And that's a big difference
between well, I'll say it, I'll send them forty minutes
past the hour more example of that. Next, thanks for listening.
It's The Morning Show with Preston Scott. It's so interesting

(52:47):
that this show totally unintentionally took a form. Now I
have what I borrowed from my days in television and
I brought it into my radio world. I have a rundown,
and the rundown is two pages, and it breaks down
every single segment of this program, and I put in
there what I plan to discuss. Now it does not

(53:08):
always shake out that way, but it's what I plan
to discuss and to kind of share how I do
what I do. I get stories from the research team,
I get stories from listeners. I get stories by just
sitting at my desktop at home and perusing of various websites.

(53:31):
And when it's all said and done, I printed maybe
thirty five forty different things, and I lay them out
and I just kind of placed them in piles, and
I start to go through, Okay, what might make a
good big story, what might be you know, a fun,
little offbeat story here, and then they just it just

(53:53):
comes together. You know, it's an overused word today, but
it comes together organically now and then I might have
something I really want to I want to talk about this,
but generally the news just sort of it paints a
picture for me. And today, as Jose will verify on

(54:14):
this rundown, today, I have all kinds of question marks
and exclamation points. They're just they're everywhere. And I wrote
this down. Where's the hate coming from? I don't know
of a time in our nation where we had such

(54:40):
a large number of people, I mean comparatively that are
openly protesting for the death of others. I mean, honestly,
that's what you see. Hamas and the old plod death
to Israel, death to Israel. Hamas was founded with the

(55:03):
whole notion of death to Israel. That's not America. Where
is this hate coming from? UCLA's Race and Equity director.
Let's just pause for a second and say that existing

(55:25):
title in and of itself is offensive, but even though
I'm offended by it, I don't wish death on this guy.
America is about disagreeing and hopefully finding a way through

(55:46):
discussion to shake hands, hug and walk away as friends,
maybe not besties, but his friends saying, well, I don't
don't agree with that, but it's a good conversation. This guy,
Jonathan Perkins, posted a bunch of disgusting stuff about the

(56:10):
death of Charlie Kirk on Blue Sky. Blue Sky is
where they go, meaning the people on the left who
hate this country and hate you and hate me, That's
where they go. Los Angeles Times reported the director of
Race and Equity has been placed on leave over social
media posts he made about the killing of Charlie Kirk.

(56:32):
Jonathan Perkins, an official with UCLA's Equity, Diversity and Inclusion office,
apparently published remarks on Blue Sky. The posts expressed both
satisfaction and indifference to the fatal shooting of the conservative activist.
The posts were quote written in my own hand, in
my own voice, in no way echo my employer, Perkins

(56:52):
said in a rate and written statement, adding that they
were protected by the First Amendment. We see this is it. No,
it's not dected speech. Again, everything is permissible, the Bible says,
but not all things are profitable. Can you do it? Sure?
Can you remain employed? Not necessarily? You can do it.

(57:20):
But he's now doubled down, he said. He posted on
Blue Sky kill your masters, once again calling for open violence.
He must have thought it unwise because he later deleted
that particular post, which is where some are saying, how

(57:45):
odd UCLA's director of Race and Equity just deleted this
post that was screenshotted. But this isn't new. What did
UCLA think they were getting? In twenty eleven, the University
of Virginia refused to discipline him after he made up
a story about police harassment. He literally concocted this entire

(58:08):
story like he's Travion Martin being followed by George Zimmerman,
and then later admitted he made up the entire incident.
He slandered campus police, he libeled campus police, and they
did nothing to him, but UCLA decided to hire him.

(58:32):
Where's the hate coming from? You know? Forty seven minutes
past the hour.

Speaker 5 (58:40):
Manly minute is next The Morning Show with Preston Scott
on News Radio one. Hundred point seven WFLA.

Speaker 2 (58:55):
When you hear that, don't you just straighten up a
little bit? Then they make you want to just sit
a little taller in your chair or seat. You might
have to adjust your rear view mirror now that you're
not slouching in the car. I'm just saying, welcome to
another malely minute. If you're new to the radio program,
this is where we take just a moment or two
of time on Tuesdays and share a little nugget on

(59:18):
how to raise a man. This is This is based
on the on the the biological reality that that there
are males and females, and that just because your male
at birth doesn't make you a man. Being a man
is a choice. I believe it involves being a man
of God. I don't believe that you can possibly understand

(59:42):
what it means to be a man until you understand
what it means to be a child of God. I
think that's that's where it all starts. These are virtue skills, ideals,
thoughts to impart to your young son, regardless of age,
to make sure that one day he will be a man.

(01:00:05):
Coveted as an employer, coveted as a friend, coveted as
a spouse a man. So what do we have today, Well,
I'm planning a seed we are about to enter into
for most people, the shopping season for Christmas. Now, whatever

(01:00:27):
amount of focus you place on gift exchanging at Christmas time,
I strongly recommend that with your young son you give
him opportunities to earn money for the purpose of purchasing
gifts for others in the family. It might be for

(01:00:49):
a mom, it might be for dad, It might be
for both. It might be for a brother or a sister.
It might be for a best friend or for a teacher.
It's not about the amount of money. It's about connecting,
doing things over and above. This isn't about giving him

(01:01:10):
money for doing what he's supposed to do every day.
That's to me, that's like rewarding somebody for not robbing
a bank, big whoop. No, this is about doing extra things.
If his normal responsibilities involve cleaning the room, making the bed,
helping put away laundry, that kind of thing, maybe a

(01:01:33):
chore like raking leaves. Great Now add to that and
give him money for a holiday for gift giving, and
then teach him the importance of thinking of others and
earning the money up front to buy the gifts, not
going into debt. There are so many levels of lessons

(01:01:55):
that you can teach through this simple opportunity to consider
others more important than themselves. Instead of their gift list,
think of other people's gifts lists. What might they get
for their brothers, sister, mom, dad, others. It so many ways,

(01:02:16):
and that's our manly minute. When we come back, it's
our number three. We're going to talk about Hamas Israel,
peace in the Middle East with Daniel Flesh of the
Heritage Foundation. He's an expert on these things. He joins
me next here on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. News,
weather and traffic is on deck. Stay with us for
our number three of the program. Where does the time go?

(01:02:52):
Ready to be with you friends. It's Tuesday, October twenty
First Morning Show with Preston Scott showy four seventy seventies. Ose,
I am Preston and it's good to have with us.
Daniel Flesh is senior policy Analysts Middle East in North Africa,
the focus of his expertise and center for National Security

(01:03:13):
with the Heritage Foundation. Daniel, good to have you on
the program.

Speaker 4 (01:03:16):
How are you, sir, good to be here, preston doing great?

Speaker 2 (01:03:19):
Thank you. What is maybe something that you can share
with listeners that might help them better understand the broader
conflict that we see unfolding in the Middle East with
Israel and in this case Amas. But historically it's certainly
been the border nations.

Speaker 4 (01:03:41):
Certainly, I fear I might need too many of you
recsychemists to explain it in full. However, in brief, the
story is essentially that Israel is a nation of about
seventy seven years old and the Jewish people the one
nation state for the jewishep in the world. They essentially
just want to live in peace with their neighbors. They've
all for that since nineteen forty eighth it came into

(01:04:01):
an existence, and they've gone peace with a few of
their neighbors, including Egypt and Jordan. And then about five
years ago, when President Trump brooke with the Abraham Accords agreement,
an additional few countries established normal relations with the State
of Israel. But there are many countries in the region
and terrorist organizations that want to see Israel destroyed for
a variety of reasons. One of those terrorist organizations is

(01:04:25):
Hamas and their patron Iran predominantly, but also Katar and Turkey,
has waged a genocidal war against the State of Israel,
against the Jewish people more broadly, and we could expand
outward and say even against Western civilization. This is why
you see the calls to globalize the Desada in the
streets of the United States, Europe and elsewhere. And right now,

(01:04:46):
Israel's defeated Hamas in that war and demanded Hamas be
disarmed and no longer be a part of the governing
structure of the Gaza Strip, which is Nestle, a small
strip of land nestles between Egypt and Israel along the Mediterranean.
But Hamas says, no, we want to continue to be
a force in Gaza. President Trump offered this twenty point
plan to see the hostages that Hamas had abducted in

(01:05:09):
October seventh, including Americans, released in this deal, of which
the remaining twenty living ones were released. But there's still
about fifteen or sixteen deceased hostages that Hamas has not returned.
And we're now at a point where Israel has pulling back,
still within the Gaza Strip, but to a predetermined line
to give Hamas space to actually disarm, but there's no

(01:05:31):
force right now that's going to compel it to disarm.
And this is with the president's comments that you played
just a few moments ago. Is where we're at, and
that how is Hamas going to disarm and who's going
to enforce that? And the last comment I make on
this is if you want a future for Gaza, a
future for the Palestinian it's a future for Israel and
a future for the region, you do not want Hamas
to be a part of that future because if Hamas

(01:05:53):
is a part of that future, then there is no
possibility for peace or even stability in that region.

Speaker 2 (01:05:58):
Well, Hamas, in its founding charter, which goes back to
nineteen eighty eight, and it's been replayed over and over
by Iran. Its proxy, of course is Jmas is the
annihilation removing from the planet Israel as a nation, as
a state, as a people. And so that in and
of itself sort of lays that baseline, but explain explain

(01:06:23):
the significance of Gaza.

Speaker 4 (01:06:26):
Certainly, And it's one more point of Hamas's origin. It
is an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, which is this
Muslim Brotherhood established in the nineteen twenties in Egypt and
is one of moost nefarious organizations out there that's actively
working to overthrow Arab governments as well as perhaps the
United States as well. There's different arms of it within

(01:06:47):
the United States Center. Ted Cruz just put forth legislation
this summer too doesnate a Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization,
and so Hamas is an offshoot of that established by
the mus Brotherhood in God. Gaza itself is an ancient
part of the Middle East. The Jewish people have no
claim over the land. Gaza was captured by Egypt during

(01:07:11):
the War of Independence when after Israel the clearest independence
you had, over five Arab armies tried to invade and
tried to destroy it. From nineteen forty eight until nineteen
sixty seven, it was administered by Egypt and then the
Sixth Day War in nineteen sixty seven, when Israel defeated Egypt, Jordan,
and Syria, Israel took over the Sinai Peninsula. It offered

(01:07:32):
to give all the Sinai back, including Gaza, for peace
that they come later into the nineteen seventy three war,
and then when Israel returned to Sinate Peninsula to Egypt.
Egypt said, you know what, we don't want Gaza. So
Israel has administered Gaza from nineteen sixty seven until two
thousand and five. And in two thousand and five, what happens.
You had about ten thousand Israeli civilians who were living

(01:07:54):
in communities in parts of Gaza. The Israeli government unilaterally
pulled them out, what was called the disengagement and an
attempt under Arlos Sharon, the Prime Minister of Israel is
a duramed George W. Bush's tenure, an attempt to pull
back for our US request pull back from certain areas
of Gaza as well as ju Day in Samaria or

(01:08:14):
the West Bank as an overturch of peace and give
the Pelsis a chance to govern themselves. And what happens
is you basically had a civil war between Hamas and
the PLO, the Palestine Liberation Organization, specifically the group called FATA.
And so since then HAMAS has administered Gaza, turned it
into a terror operation, building tunnels using the aid the

(01:08:35):
international community, including the United States, has provided it. Not
to build tunnel, not to build roads and hospitals and
a life of the Palsam people, but to build rockets
and tunnels to terrorize the Israeli people.

Speaker 2 (01:08:45):
Daniel Flesh with me. He's going to be with me
for a couple more segments. Senior policy analysts for Middle
East and North Africa at the Heritage Foundation. We're talking
about the Middle East, particularly the Gaza, strip Hamas and
Israel the future looks like Next on the Morning Show

(01:09:23):
twelve thirteen minutes past the hour. Short segment here with
Daniel Flesh with the Heritage Foundation, We're talking about the
Middle East. When President Trump announced the deal and there
was celebrations, what was your first reaction?

Speaker 4 (01:09:37):
Does that joyous celebrations because immediately you're getting twenty living
hostages to return home to their families and loved ones.
And that's part of what the war aim of Israel
has been about. Hamasha never abducted these people from the
first place in October seventh to twenty twenty three. They've
held them there in dungeons, torturing them for over two years,

(01:09:57):
and that has been the main thing that's prevented Israel
from fully defeating Hamas in the military sense and also
moving forward, so once you had no longer living hostages,
Jews and captivity. It was a great sense of relief,
of relief, excuse me, and celebration, but also tempered by
the fact that Hamas had violated the terms of the

(01:10:18):
ceasefire and that it did not release all of the
hostage meeting the twenty eight deceased hostages it had at
the time. It's been doing that in piecemeal over the
last ten days or so, but overall it was a
beginning of the end of this war.

Speaker 2 (01:10:32):
But is it See I personally am looking at this
and I know that Hamas is not going to disarm voluntarily.
I know that Hamas, you know, they're not changed their position.
They want to see the destruction and elimination of Israel,
same thing as Iran and I, you know, I while
I understand the humanity side of we got to get

(01:10:55):
those hostages back, this was never a war. This was
a terrorist act and terrorists don't get to negotiate how
it ends. That should be the complete decision of Israel.
I don't think I would have ever given up two
thousand terrorists for those hostages.

Speaker 4 (01:11:14):
Back in October twenty three, the Prime Minister and the
Government Israel made it a stated war aim on equal
footing to return to hostages, to get them returned home,
and to defeat Kamas. So as a policy of the
Israeli government, it was on equal footing to defeat Hamas.
But you're right, this is the terror organization. They're not
going to unilaterally or voluntarily disarmed, and the only organization

(01:11:35):
that can make them disarmed is the Israeli defense forces.
The president is not going to have any American troops
or boots on the ground. Is a question about Arab countries,
what sort of personnel they will contribute to some sort
of international stabilization force. But the end of the day,
right now, what's happening is Israel has pulled back to
a demarketed line in Gaza where it's still controlling about

(01:11:55):
fifty three percent of the strip, right And what that's
significant is because it's now going to have its own
security control over half the strip. And you'll realize that
in that area there's stability, there's freedom of movement for Palestinians,
et cetera, whereas in the area controlled by Hamas, they're
summarily executing other Palestinians as they re establish their power
and control in the Strip. So you might almost have

(01:12:16):
an East Germany, sorry, East Berlin, West Berlin situation where
the Israeli controlled territory area is a place of stability, opportunity,
et cetera. And the Hamas control area is basically what
it's been since two thousand and five, which is a
terror haven. But you're right, this war, this is a
long war. This is one battle and the war that's

(01:12:38):
been going on for years, decades even longer. Yeah, and
certainly with Iran as it supports, it will not end
anytime soon.

Speaker 2 (01:12:45):
Danie'll stand by. We got one more segment to go,
sixteen past the Hours The Morning Show with Preston Scott,
a senior policy analyst for Middle East and North Africa
the Heritage Foundation. Daniel Flesh joins me. One more segment, Daniel.

(01:13:06):
The headline and Epic Times is your Lamas ceasefire appears
to hold after alleged violations by Hamas. By my account,
Amas has violated every single part of the agreement. What so,
what's next?

Speaker 4 (01:13:23):
Well, what's next is a little unclear at this point.
Hamas has violent the agreement. Like I said in a
previous segment, they have not yet released all of the hostages.
The deceased hostages immediately within a day or two after
the agreement was signed at Charmelschek, Egypt, you had Palestinians
as Hamas's behest try to test the demarcation demultorized lines

(01:13:48):
and tried and engage these really forces even other violations
as well. So right now you have Vice President of
Vance in the region. You actually have the Egyptian intelligence
chief currently in Jerusalem meeting that Israeli minister so there,
and you had Steve Wikoff and Jared Kushner also in Egypt.
So all these different players are trying to figure out
a way to bring an international stabilization force, as Trump's

(01:14:10):
twenty point plan calls for, to see who can administer
stability in Gaza, at least in the areas that Hamas controls.
But as I've said before, also there's no force or
organization that will compel Hamas to disarm short of these
early defense forces. President Trump's rhetoric the last few days
has become increasingly hostile towards Hamas, saying if they do

(01:14:33):
not disarm, we will make them. That's not a call
to have American boots on the ground, but perhaps to
say to the IDEF Okay, you know what, take up
where you left off because Hamas is violent the terms
of the ceasefire, and now this is part of the
main point. While is key to get the twenty living
hostages back, there's essentially nothing standing in Israel's way from
conducting operations at a more at a higher tempo and

(01:14:55):
engagement level as previously for fear of you know, accidentally
engaged those hostages. But right now it's a little unclear.
We'll see how things turn out after these couple of
days of meetings and see where the Arab countries are
as well and their interests providing forces and troops to
help stabilize Gaza.

Speaker 2 (01:15:13):
You mentioned that there's a possibility of one area being patrolled.
You use the East Berlin West Berlin example, one area
being handled by a maas the other area by a
different governing body. Do you really see that as viable though?
I mean that in and of itself is not in
keeping with the agreement. It's not.

Speaker 4 (01:15:33):
But from Iseol's perspective, what they want, and this is
also israelis as a whole. They want this war to end,
whether the war is actually spoken about before, what the
war will really ever end is a different story. But
for right now, the Israeli society is tired of this war.
You've had reservists where people in their late twenties to
mid forties who have left their homes, their families to

(01:15:54):
spend nearly two years at war, and so their businesses
are in dire straits. I will know for your listeners
out there that this year Israel's ranked the fifth happiest
country in the world. So Israeli society is very They're motivated,
their mission driven. However, to an individual, they need the
war to end to move forward. That being said, they're
happy for the guns to go silence and to administer

(01:16:17):
the territory of the Gaza strip as Israel will still
have security control along the border areas. So this was
not really concerned about thinking ten years down the road,
are we governing this territory for ten years? For Rather,
how can we ensure that Hamas sorry Gaza no longer
poses a threat to Israel? And one way we do
that is by retaining fifty three percent of the territory

(01:16:37):
as it stipulates in Trump's plan. So the East Berlin
West Berlin is an imperfect analogy, but shows that there's
a difference between political governing forces in this area, and
eventually you'll be able to see the contrasts, and perhaps
you'll have the palacing to people that realize, wait a minute,
I have better opportunities and fortunes on the Israeli side
or with an Israeli supportive force, rather than the Hama side.

Speaker 2 (01:16:59):
Daniel, thanks for the time this morning. I appreciate your insight.
I thank you all right. Daniel Flesh with us from
the Heritage Foundation and my guest this morning here on
the program. I'll tell you what. I love the breakdown,
But do you really think that a fifty to fifty
is gonna work? If you give a mass even that

(01:17:23):
portion of that land, They're just gonna do exactly what
they've done. But from Israel's perspective, he raised a point.
I had not considered that the Israeli people want this done.
I guess the definition of done is different depending on
what seat you're sitting in. To me, done is ending

(01:17:46):
a mass. To me, done is making sure that that
part of the world is not raising little terrorists, which
is what it's doing right now. They're indoctrinating children to
hate Israel and to kill Jews and again, I go

(01:18:06):
back to this was not a war, this was a
terrorist act and reprisal against those terrorists. But twenty seven
minutes past the hour, good information here on the Morning
Show with Preston Scott. I'm quite certain the story in

(01:18:43):
Gaza is far from over, and we're gonna have opportunity
to dig a little deeper and go back to some
of the biblical origins of this conflict, at least where
the divide starts. You know, Islam, Christianity, and the Jewish
faith all share some things, and what they most share

(01:19:07):
is Abraham. And so we're going to talk about that
perhaps tomorrow, perhaps the next day. I may inadvertently have
created an open segment tomorrow on the show. We'll see.
There was some confusion between the booking agent for best
selling author Tom Claven and me, and so I fell

(01:19:31):
on the sword on that one. But we'll hopefully get
Tom on the program at some point here soon, if
not tomorrow. Big Stories in the press Box. Federal Appeals
Court has thrown out a lower federal district court ruling
on Trump deploying the National Guard in Oregon. They voted
two to one to stay the order of US District

(01:19:52):
Judge Karen Immergut, who blocked Trump from deploying members of
the Oregon National Guard to Portland. The panel said defendants
are likely to succeed on the merits of their appeal
and other stay factors way in their favor. We grant
the defendant's motion for a stay pending appeal. The original

(01:20:16):
judge it held that that Trump could not legally entitled
was not entitled legally to federalize the Oregon National Guard.
They said it wasn't as she The judge said, it
wasn't as dire as the government claimed. Whatever. She's been overruled.
I still want to get back to this district court

(01:20:38):
problem we have. The Supreme Court has got to find
a way to punish federal judges creating national rulings when
they are a district court. But anyway, CNN has delivered
bad poll numbers to the Democrats and the shutdown. Democrats

(01:21:02):
are trying to extort about one point five trillion for
illegal alien health care and NPR funding. Look, voters, voters
want Congress to cut spending and we're still not really
doing that. And this is you know what, That's one

(01:21:23):
problem strategically for Democrats because they obviously want to expand spending.
They want more spending. But Trump is going to eventually
have to face as well the Vice President and Republicans
in Congress not cutting spending. Now, you can do that

(01:21:46):
if you take advantage of the shutdown and start getting
rid of some stuff, but they'll sue and it'll be
stopped by you know, rogue district courts. And that's where
we'll go. And then Trump getting off and on Air
Force one quickly at Palm Beach International Airport. That's where

(01:22:07):
he flies in and out of most frequently, outside of
the district. And the Secret Service has found a suspected
hunting stand sniper outpost? Is it a hunting stand? I,
for the life of me can't get my brain around
the possibility that there could be a hunting stand close
to an airport. I don't see that in any way,

(01:22:31):
shape or form. Perhaps somebody that is familiar with Palm
Beach can tell me what they're hunting near the airport. Now,
I'm trying to understand any other explanation other than a
platform where someone would try to take a shot at Trump.

(01:22:55):
And it could be maybe they have a bear problem.
Maybe they had a bear coming to and from, or
maybe they have deer around the airport that they're trying
to keep from going on runways. I mean, it's possible,
but I don't know. I'm not from that part of
the state, and most airports have incredible fencing around them

(01:23:17):
to keep wild animals off of runways for that very reason.
But forty minutes past the out come back with interesting
interaction with a listener forty one minutes past the hour

(01:23:38):
head a note back last week from a listener I
will not name. I know this is last minute, but
Blegxit turning point will be on the Family campus Friday
and we need security. TPD turned us down. Do you
know of anyone interested in providing security for the speakers

(01:24:00):
film crew for the event? So offered some suggestions, none
of them included me, and so everything got worked out.
They were supposed to have a zoom meeting with the
Family Chief of Police and they were ready to go.

(01:24:25):
I get a follow up one day later, after we
think we've solved the problem, he said, I'm embarrassed. I
went to FAM. You. I thought everything was great, but
we had a zoom meeting and I thought it would
be just with our event coordinator and I turns out
that the Board of Trustees and the student by the
president joined, so it was fifteen on two. They told

(01:24:51):
us our security has been stripped. They asked detailed questions
about what our intentions were on campus. We explained every
step we were taking. They shot it down. The assistant
chief of police said she learned on the side of
not allowing us on She leaned on the side of
not allowing us on campus. Everyone was against us. They
basically told us not to be on campus. Then we

(01:25:13):
can schedule in another event for another day, mainly because
it's homecoming week and they have a lot going on.
The board of trustees used the same tactics that racist
people used in the fifties and sixties to keep blacks
out of certain places. And then I got this yesterday.

(01:25:37):
It's being reported by the Tallassee Democrat in HBCU Sports
that blegxit is the one that canceled the event on
campus without explanation. This is not true, Bam, you is
the one who canceled us from being on campus with
very little explanation other than it's a lot going on.
It's oncoming, by the way, It's a lot going on.

(01:26:02):
It's exactly why they wanted to be there, because there's
a lot going on. They want an opportunity to have
interaction and conversation with a lot of people. This is
going to be interesting. This is going to get interesting.
I'll be curious if this finds its way to the
Attorney General, if you know. Because fam You is a

(01:26:28):
state university. It is a publicly funded state university. It
is under the purview of the Board of Governors and
the governor. Now, I am taking the word of the
person who wrote me that I offered assistance and was

(01:26:49):
able to connect him with some people that were able
to help him navigate this and to arrange for the
proper security and so forth. But then to just get
slammed and told no, boy, I sure hope fam You

(01:27:09):
has got their reasons in order other than what they're offering.
But I just decided I was going to put this
on your radar. Friends love Florida and m University, I
really do. I got to be very good friends with
a lot of people there in my time with ABC Sports.

(01:27:31):
Most all the coaches of all the sports, the administrators,
the presidents didn't have any kind of warm, fuzzy relationship
with anyone on the board of trustees at that time,
one of the board members was trying to be the
de facto president, was working behind his back. But now,
I was one of the biggest supporters of fam You

(01:27:53):
in wanting to see them be successful across the board,
but certainly athletically, and drew attention to some things that
that hindered, that interviewed some boosters, that explained why they
didn't give and so forth. But fam You has always
been broadly generally speaking, with exceptions of some really good

(01:28:15):
people along the way. FAM You organizationally has always been
its own worst enemy always and uh, with the historical
advantages that it has and its place as a historical
Black college and university, it has so many things going

(01:28:38):
for it. But yeah, there's there's the butt. Forty seven
minutes after the hour. Unbelievably, we're gonna wrap up this
show next Well, no matter what else, we'll talk about

(01:29:02):
a lesson in pragmatics tomorrow. No, it's really it's a
fascinating political race that opens up the opportunity to look
at reality, what is practically possible versus what is not,

(01:29:29):
and it might inform some of you about your future
political aspirations. I don't know, but it will be an
opportunity to learn little class time tomorrow and then we'll
see if I managed to recover my friendship with Tom
claven Porto. I feel bad, honest mistake made. But yeah,

(01:29:53):
potential mass shooting stopped at Atlanta International Airport Hartsfield. Yeah.
Apparently this convicted felon facetimed his family telling them about
his plans. He showed up at the airport. They've got
the security camera footage of a forty nine year old guy.

(01:30:17):
He has been diagnosed with mental illness. He is a
convicted felon, which means he never should have been in
possession of a firearm. But he did in fact have
a Springfield ar with twenty seven rounds. Wait, someone who's
not supposed to have a gun had one, didn't he
know he's not allowed anyway, He parked his truck, walked inside,

(01:30:43):
saw it was kind of busy, was walking back out.
One would think he was walking back out to get
his gun, because that was his plan, and he had
a loaded ar and so they arrested him right there
because the family tipped off police. Go family, Not really,
I mean, you got no choice, right, you just you

(01:31:07):
have no choice in those settings. So Disaster Averted brought
to you by Barono Heating and Air. It's the Morning
Show one on WFLA May and Alive. Did we cover
a lot of ground today, a lot of stories. We
started with a great SoundBite from Nick Fredis, the Virginia

(01:31:28):
State Rep. Served in military, pretty distinguished career as I
can tell, but he's he dropped a very, very pointed
message to pastors on the opportunity that is in the
church today to reach young men in particular and not

(01:31:48):
waste it with some watered down version of scripture. And
so I use that to inspire my devotional verse today,
which is Matthew seven Versus thirteen and fourteen. That's where
we started the program. Big stories in the press box.
President boarding Air Force one quickly in and out of
Palm Beach International Airport because of the Secret Services discovering

(01:32:16):
a suspected i'll call it a sniper nest in a
tree near the airport. Clear shot at Air Force One. Now,
no one was there, they have no suspects. They're trying
to figure out what it was there for. There would
be no hunting purpose, you know, as Jose and I

(01:32:38):
discussed it. Even if you were to say whether they're
to scare away birds or to hunt animals or whatever
nuisance animals from the airport, the airport would know about that.
It would be well marked and designed, and airports use
other means for that type of thing. A federal appeals
court has allowed Trump's National Guard deployment in Oregon afft withdrawal.

(01:33:01):
CNN on board delivering the bad news to Democrats about
the shutdown. It's all dumping on them. I don't know
is the Israeli Hamas ceasefire holding. We talked to Daniel
Flesher the Heritage Foundation about the whole matter, and then
we spend a lot of time talking about the hate
on the left and where it's coming from and how

(01:33:22):
it's expressing itself. Tomorrow, cannot wait, It's only twenty one
hours away. Friends, Have a great day.
