Speaker 1 (00:14):
It's Wednesday. Good morning, Welcome to the Humpday edition of
the Morning Show with Preston Scott and Preston. He's Jose.
Are those prescription glasses? Yes? Here they are. Okay? Are
you near sighted or far sighted? I am near sighted.

(00:37):
So those help you see distance. They crystallize and focus
things at distance, and.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Without them, I can't see just in case.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
Interesting. Interesting, Yeah, I am. I am getting my first
glasses in forty years. Readers, I can read, but I'm
I'm spoiled because I've always been able to read really

(01:08):
really fine, like four point font without any difficulty, and
I'm I'm struggling to do that now. I'm having a
squint because I have monovision. I am far sighted with
my left eye and I'm nearsighted with my right eye,
and so I'm I'm having to just kind of tweak
it a little bit. And so I went and saw

(01:29):
my eye doctor for the first time in forever. And
while I could get a prescription for distance, my distance
is still roughly twenty twenty and I don't I could,
I could clear it up just a little bit, but
I don't want to play golf with glasses. I have
no no, not going to happen. And I said, let's

(01:51):
just let's just help the reading a little bit. But see,
I can read everything here, but there are just times
it's just a little more work than I want it
to be. So I had to go through that process
of picking out glasses. I was actually proud. It only
took me twenty minutes. And it's like, and I mean
that was walking in the door picking the glasses, sitting down,

(02:15):
getting it all, and now I'm waiting for him to
come in. So anyway, I have no idea what led
me to that, but welcome. I'm sure you're all very
interested in my visual acuity. But anyway, we are back
in one Corinthians thirteen. Yesterday we talked about the various

(02:38):
traits of love, and we started in verse four, went
through verse seven. Love is patient, It's kind, doesn't envy,
it doesn't boast. It's not arrogant or rude. Love does
not insist on having it its own way. It's not

(03:01):
irritable or resentful. It does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but
rejoices with truth. Love bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things. And now we're picking
up in verse eight, and I just want to get
the very very first sentence as it's given to us.

(03:25):
Punctuation wasn't there the way that we see it, you know,
as it was written, So we add punctuation. Love never fails.
I would submit those of you that have struggled with

(03:45):
that concept that love never fails, because that's quite a
statement of certainty. Love never fails. I would submit that
if you have been it places in your heart or

(04:06):
in your life where you feel like it has, you
have misunderstood what love means. The verses prior to verses
four through seven explain what love is, and I think

(04:27):
it's useful to understand the different forms of love that
are described in the Bible. There is arros, that's one
word for love, and that is a love between a
husband and a wife that is revolves around intimacy. There

(04:49):
is fileo and that is a love that is friendship.
And then there's a gape and agape is a Chris love.
And so I just want to challenge you that if
you're struggling in your heart with that word, remind yourself

(05:13):
love never fails, and then work backwards to figure out
which part of the definition of love you're struggling with
and ask God to help you with that. Ten past
the hour inside the American Patriots Almanac. We go next
on The Morning Show with Preston.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
Scott, except he has a little more hair. The Morning
Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
We're going to do a little bit of a deep
dive here because I think it's it's instructive. November twelfth,
got the Space Shuttle Columbia, first man spacecraft ever to
be launched twice, lifts off from Cape Canaveral in nineteen
eighty one. Nineteen fifty before Ellis Island closed after processing,

(06:03):
more than twelve million immigrants been to Ellis Island. It's remarkable,
it really is. Nineteen forty two, the naval Battle of
Guadalcanal begins, pivotal Allied victory in the Pacific eighteen ninety two.
Bet you don't know the answer to the answer to
this question. What's the name of the first professional football

(06:25):
player earned her who earned money playing football? It's a
guy in Pittsburgh, William Pudge Heffelfinger earned five hundred dollars
playing for the Allegheny Athletic Association against the Pittsburgh Athletic
Club five hundred. That's a lot of money in eighteen

(06:45):
ninety two, and then this. When French American Jay Hector
Saint John de Creva died on November twelfth, eighteen thirteen,
he left behind a vivid portrait of life on the
eighteenth century American frontier. He had immigrated to the New

(07:08):
World in seventeen fifty five, settled on a farm in
New York. His impressions, published in England in seventeen eighty
two as Letters from an American Farmer, still offer insights
about the American character. Listen to this and ask yourself
this question. Is this what's missing from the entire discussion

(07:32):
of immigration into America? These are his words? What then,
is the American? This new man? He is an American who,
leaving behind him all his ancient prejudices and manners, receives
new ones from the new mode of life he has embraced,

(07:56):
the new government he obeys, and the new rank he holds.
He becomes an American by being received in the broad
lap of our great Alma Mater. Here individuals of all
nations are melted into a new race of men, whose
labors and posterity will one day cause great changes in
the world. Americans are the Western pilgrims who are carrying

(08:18):
along with them the great mass of arts, sciences, vigor,
and industry which began long since in the East. They
will finish the great circle. The American ought, therefore to
love his country much better than that wherein he or
his forefathers were born. Here the rewards of his industry

(08:42):
follow with equal steps the progress of his labor, without
any part being claimed either by a despotic prince, a
rich abbot, or a mighty lord. The American is a
new man who acts upon new principles. He must therefore
entertain new ideas and form new opinions. From involuntary idleness,

(09:04):
servile dependence, pen you were the useless labor, he has
passed the toils of a very different nature, rewarded by
ample subsistence. This is an American. Those words were written
in seventeen eighty two. How how much more do those

(09:35):
words apply today? And should they not be part of what?
Isn't that? Isn't that? Really? What someone who wants to
be a legal citizen of this country should be reading,
should be studying, should be forced to accept it's it's

(10:00):
it's characterized and and embraced, in one word, assimilation, assimilating
into the culture of this country, not trying to bring
your culture and force it upon everybody here. Today's National
French Dip Day. What a great sandwich? What a great sandwich?

(10:25):
National Chicken Soup for the Soul Day. Okay, buy the
book and have some soup. Okay, that's it's it's a
it's a holiday created to sell books, which leaves me
just going black. And it's National Pizza with the works
except Anchovy's Day. I didn't make that up. That's that's

(10:48):
the thing. Seventeen past the Hour, come back with a
did you Know? And more on The Morning Show with
Preston Scott. Did you know? Of course you didn't because

(11:14):
we've never talked about Jose's grandfather, So our did you
Know comes from the mouth of Jose. Can you see himself?
We were we were talking in the break as we
talked in the last segment about the importance of assimilation
of immigrants legally coming to this country and then becoming

(11:38):
part of this country. Tell us about your grandpa.

Speaker 2 (11:41):
Yeah, when he when he left Cuba and he got
here to America, he just he became American.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
He didn't.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
He never talked about Cuba. He even broke his the
chain of you know, being doctors, all the all the
jose Ken you sees, but we're all doctors. He became
a businessman, opened up his own garage, and if you
didn't hear him speak Spanish, you wouldn't know that he
was Cuban.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
So it was pretty He embraced the language. Oh yeah,
learned it right away.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
He said, so I'm medical, which in English means I'm American.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yeah, I don't remember him talking about Cuba or being
Cuban at all my whole life that I knew him.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
So you you were exposed as a youngster to the
very concept that we talk about on this program, the
importance of if you're going to live in America, of
being an American. Yep. Oh yeah, big time left an
impression on you, it did it? Did?

Speaker 2 (12:43):
I respected that a lot, And you know, you see
it in other people. They don't want to integrate or
you know, want melt into the pot. You know, they
just want to kind of keep their own community, keep
their own practices.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
And for example, I love the idea, uh and I
know that, for example, you embrace the cuisine of Cuba,
the cuisine of Mexico, the ethnic background and heritage that's there.
You embrace that, and it's and it finds its way
through a lot of aspects of your life. And I
think that's what's cool. If you do it right, that's

(13:19):
what makes America amazing. You leave all of that identity
from the standpoint of your loyalty and and you bring
with you all of the ethnic richness that comes from
being from another part of the world, but that just

(13:41):
flavors your dish. You're an American, and that's what's missing today.
We have by educating people in their native tongue, primarily Spanish,
we have robbed that them. We've actually hurt them. We

(14:05):
think we're helping them, but statistically the numbers are overwhelming.
You are more successful if you speak the language of
the country you're living in. Very true. I mean it
just is imagine trying to do business not speaking the
native tongue of Japan or France or any number of

(14:32):
other countries around the world where to be really able
to converse and to be part of a culture means
learning their language. I made note of this. It's pretty cool.
Just a short, little quick thing here there's a primetime
golf event coming and it's made. It's coming up on

(14:55):
December the seventeenth Golf Channel USA Network at Trump National
in Jupiter, Florida, the optim Golf Channel Games and Rory McElroy,
Scotti Scheffler are heading up two different teams. And on
Scotty's team is fs u's Luke Clanton just turned pro

(15:19):
last year and this past year, i should say, and
he is. Each team has the most recent writer Cup
captain on it, a best friend and an up and comer,
and so Luke Clanton was chosen. I love it. It's

(15:43):
a unique format. It's not just golf matches, it's some
skills competitions. It's called one events a fourteen club challenge,
which is fun because once you use a club, it's done.
You can't use it again, and so you try to

(16:04):
navigate the golf course losing a club with every shot,
and it's just it's a blast to play. So that's
coming up in December. In fact, I think that's the
night of the last show of live show of the
year because the Twelve Days of Preston begins December eighteenth,

(16:25):
So there you go. I'll be able to watch it. Ah,
I didn't play in that. That's just the way it
worked out, all right. Twenty eight past the hour, Let's
come back with the big stories in the press Box
and more on The Morning Show with Preston Scott. Is

(16:47):
it me or does Nicholas Maduro, the leader of Venezuela,
look more and more like Saddam Hussein. I mean, if
you look at the guy, he's he's like evolving into Satam,
and I just I always go back to uh, George H. W.

(17:09):
Bush used to call him, Sadam just didn't do it,
Sadam defend the homeland, dude. We don't want your crappy homeland.
We just want your oil. No, we have we have enough.
You just that that that that's that's your sitting lesson

(17:32):
on socialism. Parents to tell your kids, just tell your
kids go go spend spend some time in Venezuela, and
come back and talk to me about how evil America is. Okay? No, seriously,
I would tell a college student go to Venezuela, hang
out for a while, and then come back and lecture
me and until then shut up. I know that doesn't

(17:57):
sound very loving, does it. That's not loving enough. There,
big stories in the press box. This is just an
opportunity for me to spike the football. I'm sorry. The
irs began an investigation in twenty nineteen of the Clinton Foundation.

(18:21):
It was shut down. Memos have been uncovered, one of
them stating, can't talk about the CF otherwise known as
Clinton Foundation.

Speaker 4 (18:35):
That was.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
To a couple of whistleblowers that have come forward and
had come forward explaining how the Clinton Foundation was in
essence paying itself with foreign money for favors. I told
you the Clinton Foundation has all but dried up to
nothing since Hillary lost the election in twenty sixteen. Nothing.

(19:05):
Why because the only reason it was making money was
when Hillary and before that Bill was in office, or
in the wake of Bill being in office. The Clinton
Foundation was based strictly on peddling influence for cash. It's

(19:26):
the same shakedown Joe Biden was doing in China and Ukraine.
The Clinton Foundation whistleblowers have told Congress in twenty eighteen,
sixty percent of the donations were being used for administrative fees.
You know what that means, paying Hillary, Bill and Chelsea

(19:53):
sixty percent. You know what the average is for a
five oh one C three ten to fifteen percent max.
It's starting to the lid is starting to come off.
Pam Bondi cash Patel are giving Congress new files and

(20:17):
a cash of documents. Little battle between the President and
Marjorie Taylor Green of Georgia peaches. Listen up the back
and forth between the two of them. She's saying, the
president's too focused on foreign policy, needs to be focused

(20:37):
on domestic prices of groceries having come down. Blah blah
blah blah blah. You can't make prices go down. What
you can do is you can create a regulatory environment
and an energy environment. Energy prices are down now. If
energy producers are not lowering prices, that's a separate matter.

(21:02):
But that's not on Trump. Trump is has been in
office for ten months. We had four years of disaster.
You don't have you ever tried to untangle a fine

(21:24):
chain that's knotted up. It takes a while, it takes
a little juggling, a little jiggling, a little you know,
you get those little fine tooth tweezers and you got
to get a magnifying glass and you have to just
gotta It's it's incredible, that's what we're entangling. A mess
What concerns me about Marjorie Taylor Green is why is

(21:47):
she aligning with Democrats on subsidies for Obamacare. I'll tell
you why, because she wants to be re elected and
she's pandering. She's pandering to her base, but she wants
to extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies, which means she

(22:08):
is mistakenly walking into the trap of socialism. That is
about the incremental move to a single payer healthcare system.
And then the last big story in the press box,
Coast Guard has hit the highest recruiting numbers in nearly
thirty five years. Thirty five years. It's not a coincidence.

(22:28):
Forty one minutes past the hour, forty three minutes past
the hour, orphan Shade raised just under one thousand dollars yesterday.

(22:57):
It's a good start. Thank you for those of you
that have given to the cause. We'll talk more about
Orprinshade next hour. Orphanshade dot com. House number six is
what we're trying to build and fund the acquisition of
land in the building. Fifty five thousand dollars is the goal.

(23:17):
It's a hefty goal. We've never done that much. Most
is what we did two years ago when we three
years ago in twenty twenty two, when we raised funds
for Home number three, we raised the funds forty better
than forty thousand when it was all said and done,
and funded it separately the monthly support. And so all

(23:38):
of you listeners that took part of that, you are,
you are, that's your home. Thank you. But we're going
to do it again. And for those of you that
have not taken part, I'm getting emails from people that
have been supporters and just sort of challenge you five

(24:01):
dollars a month, Just five dollars a month. I mean,
I'll be honest with you, if everybody listening to this
program chipped in, we could get it done really easily.
So whatever you can do, whether it's a one time gift,
a monthly gift, a quarterly gift, an annual gift, orphanshade
dot com. In the drop down, you'll see the donate button.

(24:24):
Donate in the drop down home number six, building a house,
and you want to put in the comments house number
six or WFLA or something like that. We'll talk more
about it. Outgoing New York City Mayor Eric Adams, what
a guy he's going to give way to the socialist,
actually the Marxist socialist communist. He's a full blood blood commie,

(24:46):
according to Justin Haskins, and I trust Justin's research. Implicitly,
Eric Adams steps down on December thirty first. So he's
offering new three thousand city workers that were fired during
the pandemic because they refused to get a shot, a
chance to get their job back. They can have their

(25:09):
job back. Listen to this magnanimous offer. They can get
their job back, same position, same rate to pay, but
no back pay, no back pay. Oh what a generous guy.

(25:33):
And he stands by the fact that he did the
right thing. Oh no, you didn't. Anybody who mandated the vaccine.
Not only did you do the wrong thing, you did
an a moral thing.

Speaker 5 (25:53):
You know.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
It's interesting. I have not had one doctor ever write
me defending their decision to force that, but I've had
plenty of doctors thank me for speaking out against it.
Isn't it interesting? Because the medical profession was wrong, and

(26:20):
the damage done to the medical profession, the trust in
doctors eroded, perhaps forever because of it. Talk about too little,
too late. You could have your job back three years later.

(26:43):
Excuse me, four years later forty seven minutes after come
back and on the subject of the healthcare industry.

Speaker 3 (26:54):
This is the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
A longtime friend of mine listener to the program sent
me a note Organize and this guy is a deep thinker,
very very sharp, smart, politically intuitive guy I have great

(27:31):
regard for. He wrote, Organized Medicine is tweaking their approach
on gun control. Firearm harms is their newly coined term
to reframe it as a public health issue. Said, I
think they recognize, He writes, I think they recognize they've
actually lost ground on the issue of freedom and firearms

(27:52):
being intangibly linked, and are trying to open a different battlefront.
And he lists the JAMMA, the Journal of the American
Medical Association, the JAMA Summit, and it says in the
last twenty five years, the US experienced eight hundred thousand
firearm deaths and over four million firearm injuries. It is

(28:14):
estimated that there are four hundred million firearms in America?
Is that all that would be? My response is that
all I need to buy more guns? And last year
there were forty four thousand deaths. As of mid October,
there have been three hundred and thirty seven mass shootings.

(28:38):
First of all, their cherry picking all these numbers met
three hundred and thirty seven mass shootings. Define that please,
which of course they don't do. So inside their little
thing here, they proposed five tangible actions to drive progress

(28:59):
what they call progress. Invest in community based initiatives and
address upstream drivers like housing, opportunity and mistrust. Advanced technologies
such as biometric smart guns, passive detection systems, safety tools

(29:19):
driven by AI, while strengthening oversight for firearms as consumer
products shift public and shift public and policymaker understanding about
the preventability of firearm harms, reframing gun violence as a
public health and social and environmental issue. It goes on
and on this drivel. Locally, we had Leon County Commissioners

(29:48):
vote five to two to pass these absurd, stupid gun policies.
Gun control policies. First of all, they're meaningless. They have
no authority of any kind whatsoever. Just makes five of
them feel better about themselves. But among the stupid things,

(30:09):
they say that firearms are inaccessible inside the house, locked
up to unauthorize people. When you have a firearm in
your home for protection, do you realize how patently stupid
you sound saying it belongs behind a lock, as if

(30:35):
someone busting in your home is gonna wait for you
to get the key. Sure, I'll wait right here. This
is how absolutely stupid they are, and as opposed to
talking about the real issues and the real source of

(30:55):
gun crime, they do this kind of stuff to make
themselves like they're doing something. Barf. Oh, the audience of
this show, I love you people. Five past the hour.
That's OSEI. I'm preston. Welcome to Wednesday. Doctor Bob McClure,
James Madison Institute will join us next hour. Between now

(31:16):
and then, it's us chatting away over things in the news.
Got this note from Walter He we were talking about
the Journal of the American Medical Association, and they're taking
a new approach to try to convince people that guns
are evil, and of course they're not. The Second Amendment

(31:39):
protects all of the amendments of this country. The Second
Amendment protects you and I against a despotic government. The
Second Amendment protects this country from invasion from foreign infidels.
Now that what they're doing is they're they're using our
freedoms against us to take over our nation. But he wrote,

(32:05):
he wrote me, he said, you're more likely to die
from medical malpractice than by a firearm. Let jam a
chew on that, Thanks Walter. Okay, let's let's talk about
this for a few minutes. And I'm going to try
to bounce this topic around the show, not just lock

(32:28):
it into the same time every day for the next
you know, thirty days. We are now in the Giving season.
We try to start it around the first of November.
We got a little bit of a late start here,
but Operation Thanksgiving Spirit of Christmas because once Thanksgiving comes

(32:52):
with just it's the same fundraiser. We're just calling it
a different title. It's all based on the idea of
what I think God has given me this platform for,
and it is to try to make a difference. Now.

(33:16):
Sometimes that is by suggesting a different way to look
at an issue, perhaps running things through the filter of
your faith in Christ, where before maybe you didn't, causing
us to reflect to think, obviously, I think I'm right

(33:40):
about the things that I talk about as well you should.
You should think you're right, or you haven't thought about
it enough. The difference being I'm open to being corrected.
Now there are things as it relates to biblical mandates
and scripture that it's not changing. A word doesn't change.

(34:04):
But I have always tried to find ways to impact
other people through this program. And a few years ago
we were introduced to a ministry called Orphan Shade, and

(34:27):
Orphan Shade builds homes for orphans. They do not build
an orphanage. And it's really important that you understand the
difference in a traditional orphanage children with no parents or

(34:51):
parents that have lost custody, and the children now become
adopted by others that will become their parents. It's a
temper a home. It's a place where a child waits
for a family. Some of them wait a long time,
and it's just it's agonizing. This is a home for

(35:18):
orphaned children. They're not up for adoption. They're adopted. They're
adopted into a family with a parent two parents, rather
a parental group, a church family, supporting and helping in
their local village where they maintain some connections. And then

(35:42):
they have seven sisters. So there's eight girls total in
each one of these homes. And it would be very
easy to step back and say what difference is that
making eight girl well, look at what happened through twelve guys. Now,

(36:04):
really look at what's happened because twelve guys became Christians
and spread the news. If we get the sixth home built,
that's forty eight girls. Imagine what they could do in

(36:25):
their nation, educated, learning about Jesus protected, not living in
opulence at all, but living in a cinder block home
with a cement floor, not dirt, not washed away, not
destroyed every time the wind blows, which is what happens.
The seasonal weather destroys the homes, usually within a year

(36:51):
or so, and so they have to build again. These
homes aren't built again, and so we're going to try
to build home number six. I'm gonna give you the
details about that next eleven minutes past. Get a quick
check of weather in traffic. It is our two the
Morning Show with Prusty Scott. If you go to the

(37:18):
website Orphanshade dot com, you will see a wonderful page,
very easy to navigate. You can see the elevator pitch,
you can check the financials, can learn about the ministry focus.
You can see the vision. You can see a video
introduction to Orphan Shade what they do, how they do it,

(37:42):
but I want to call your attention to the donate
button because our goal is fifty five thousand dollars. Now.
When we built home number three in Mdeca, Malawi in
twenty twenty two, it was about thirty five thousand dollars.
Thirty eight thousand dollars we raise over forty and then
we raise support to support the home monthly because there

(38:06):
are ongoing costs. Home number six is now three years
later and the prices are higher. Instead of thirty five
to thirty eight thousand, it's now fifty five thousand to
buy the land and build the home. It is not opulent.

(38:27):
It is very basic, but it is opulent for those
kids and for that family. They have very modest furnishings,
but they have a safe place and we're going to

(38:49):
try to raise the fifty five thousand dollars. We're going
to do the best we can. So when you go
to Orphan Shade, you click the donate button and you'll
see the amount you can give. Put in whatever you want,
whether you want to do it monthly, quarterly, or just once,

(39:09):
and then it says apply my gift to please select
build a house. You click that and in the comments
put home number six. They plan to build home number
five and home number six this year. They have raised
the money for home number five. We are being challenged
to help them raise the money for home number six.

(39:31):
Now to that end, I've mentioned this before. It will
take some heavy lifting, meaning I believe that we need
some businesses to step up and give a few thousand
dollars one thousand, two thousand, three thousand, five thousand, ten thousand.

(39:55):
It's a tax right off. You're doing an amazing thing,
and we need you. We just do so. If you've
had a successful year and you've set aside money for
a great project at the end of the year that
you donate something, you donate money to something. Here you go,
I submit Orphan Shade to you. And then there's this.

(40:18):
Our friend Marvin Goldstein has made the following offer. The
first person with a five thousand dollars donation to Orphan

He is charming and delightful and such a gifted pianist.
And your your friend's family will, your staff will adore it.
So that's the offer from Marvin. What do you think

(41:41):
orphanshade dot com Again, I'm only going to set aside
a little bit of time each day. I'm gonna move
it around. So this is my main pitch for the day.
I'm just gonna trust God will lay it on the
hearts of those and uh, no matter what the amount
is that you can give, it would be greatly appreciated.

(42:03):
We raised almost a thousand dollars yesterday, so we're on
our way and thank you Orphanshade dot com home number
six in the comments or WFLA seventeen passed the hour. Well,

(42:26):
let's leave the feel good story of orphan Shade in
the dust Orphanshade dot com. You ever heard of Haley McKnight.
Probably not. She lives in Helena, Montana, and decided to
leave a little voice message for US Senator Tim Sheehey,

(42:51):
Republican who has faced death threats. I don't know that
you want to mess with Tim Sheehy. I'm just saying,
looking at his background, so young. Miss Haley is was

(43:12):
a candidate for the city commission in the capital of Montana,
which is Helena. She left the following voicemail, Hi, this
is Haley McKnight. I'm a constituent in Helena, Montana. I
just wanted to let you know that you were one
of the most insufferable kind of coward and thief. You

(43:35):
just stripped away healthcare from seventeen million Americans, and I
hope you're really proud of that. I hope that one
day you get pancreatic cancer and it spreads through your
bodies so fast they can even treat you for it.
I hope you die in the street like a dog.
One day, you're going to live to regret this. I
hope that your children never forgive you. I hope that
you're infertile. I hope that you managed to never and yeah,

(44:00):
I mean I can't even repeat what she said. You
are the worst piece of bleep I've ever ever, ever
had the misfortune of looking at God forbid you ever
meet me on the streets, because I will make you
regret it. Bleep you. I hope you die. Ladies and gentlemen,
this is the left, and I would only say to

(44:26):
For example, we had a listener last week identified himself
as a moderate, classic liberal. Why would you want to
be part of this. You're not saving your party. Just
leave it doesn't mean you have to be a Republican.
Leave leave this. I'm going to continue to make the case.

(44:54):
This is the Democrat Party now. It is the party.
It was never the party of tolerance. That was a
complete con job. It never was. It liked to convince itself.
It was because the Democrat Party has always been the

(45:16):
home of the Klan. It was the home of segregation,
it was the opposition to women's rights. They only tried
to co opt that stuff to find, to find a crowd,
to find voters, but they've never been. Look at what's
happening right now to women with the transgender LGBTQ nonsense,

(45:40):
who finds a home on the left, the people that
are the most intolerant by being a Democrat. And to
those of you, well, if I'll never get to vote
because everyone hears a Democrat leave the party and vote

(46:03):
in the general election, that's an excuse. Would there ever
be an excuse to be a member of the Klan? No,
I'm is there an excuse? Well, I want to be

(46:26):
able to vote on who leads it? Really? Really no, no, No,
Brandon Straka. The Walkaway campaign demonstrates it. Go online, find
it walk Away campaign, Go on YouTube, look at the channel,

(46:50):
listen to the stories. People just like you Democrats say,
I don't know what this is. I want no part
of it. This young lady represents the mindset that exists now. Bitterness, hatred, vitriol,

(47:13):
spewing venom at every opportunity who leaves that voicemail twenty
seven minutes after come back with the big stories in
the press Box in the Morning Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 3 (47:28):
Get to subscribe to the Conversations with Preston Scott podcast
on the iHeartRadio app. Welcome to the Morning Show with
Preston Scott.

Speaker 1 (47:49):
We now have record recruiting numbers in the Coast Guard.
Recruiting is up for all of the services and now
including the Coast Guard. In fact, they are at one

(48:11):
hundred and twenty one percent of their goal. That's huge
reservists over the number they were seeking. That's just that
is indicative of the culture change. I don't know how
many years we went predicting when you started to get

(48:34):
rid of this trans ideology from the military. I mean,
the truth of the matter is Bill Clinton's policy of
don't ask, don't tell, worked, we don't care. Just don't
let it affect your ability to be a soldier, or

(48:56):
to be a marine, or to be what a sailor
whatever it is. We don't care. But you're not gonna
be the opposite sex. You're not gonna be parading around
dressing like a girl. If you're a guy, it's not
gonna happen. That's good. Second big story in the press box,

(49:24):
why is Marjorie Taylor green? And Look, I have no
problem with her being critical of Donald Trump. It's fine.
Trump has to get past this urge. And I'll be
honest with you, he has reacted to her criticism far
better than he normally does. What he's saying is, I

(49:46):
don't know what's happened to her, she's lost her way. Okay,
that's better than the personal attacks that usually happen, because
criticism of Trump is usually met with both barrels personal attacks.

(50:09):
And it's not a winsome quality. It just isn't. So
maybe it shows it sounds weird to say for a
guy his age, some maturity. Where I questioned Marjorie Taylor Greene,
is what are you doing siding with Democrats on wanting
to extend the COVID subsidies for Obamacare? Obamacare was never

(50:36):
going to work. We told you, our guests told you.
Anyone with an ounce of common sense new this was
a slight of hand to get us a giant step
towards a single payer, socialized medical system. Well, we have

(50:56):
to do something to fix the medical healthcare that no
one disagreed that what you've done has made it worse.
You've raised rates even higher. You're not solved anything. All
we're doing is subsidizing it with your tax dollars you're

(51:20):
paying for this, and a lot of that care was
going to people illegally in this country. Third big story
in the press box Clinton corruption files. Pam Bondi, Cash
Pateel have handed over to Congress evidence detailing the corruption
inside the Clinton Foundation. This ought to be good. The

(51:43):
only reason why this is news is because this just happened,
the fact that the Clinton Foundation was corrupt and was
paid a play one hundred percent. I mean, let me pause,
let me get to why this is painfully obvious. Next

(52:04):
hour forty minutes past, those are your big stories in
the press box. Florida Man comes up next.

Speaker 6 (52:22):
Well, if you read something insane, I probably did it.

Speaker 1 (52:27):
I'm fond of wood.

Speaker 5 (52:28):
The block is going ahead and google my name.

Speaker 1 (52:33):
Now there is no man to the sins I have committed,
and we all feel better when we have somebody. Claver Man, buddy,
this story is just it is so perfectly wonderfully Florida Man.

(53:03):
Couple guys in a gal all from Florida, Florida Man
Florida Wooeman got into it an argument. The question that
they were arguing over is how many eggs can chickens lay? Because,

(53:28):
after all, isn't that the type of thing that you do,
pull a firearm out and shoot at people. My Florida
man name is forty four year old Peter Rieira Port

(53:54):
Saint Lucy, getting into a fight after they'd been smoking
a little weed, getting a little drunk outside of club.
Club closes, you know, the old adage, you don't have
to go home, but you can't stay here type thing.
So they take it out in the parking lot and
they get into this very lengthy discussion on whether or

(54:20):
not how often, rather how many eggs a chicken can lay,
And that led to a guy pulling out his forty
five col glock and fired it at three individuals, four rounds,

(54:43):
and so you got arrested for it, of course. But
I can't help but think, you know, what was it?
Was it the weed? Was it the booze? Was it
the combination? Or was it the chicken? What is it?
The chicken and the eggs? I mean, did that just

(55:07):
overwhelm all of the weed and all the booze? Being
incensed about the issue of I mean, I don't know
what's hitting you so funny about this? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (55:22):
Everything, I absolutely love it.

Speaker 1 (55:24):
It's hilarious. I just what people get angry about when
I mean, even if you remove the weed and the
alcohol from the equation. The guy's claim was that the
others were trying to con him. Huh, what con you

(55:50):
into believing that that chickens leg this amount of eggs
versus that. See, when I think of being conned, I
think of financials, Right, I'm thinking someone's trying to con
me out of money. But apparently this guy, this guy's
facing some time because of an argument over chickens and eggs.

(56:17):
I mean, is this a classic Florida Man story? Of
course it is. It's also forty six minutes passed. When
we come back the Evil, the counterpart of Florida Man,
and another edition of No Way Jose. Next on the
Morning Show with Preston Scott, I mentioned we've got the

(57:08):
other side of Florida Man. This one though, Wow, I'm
not going to name him. Palm Beach County Sheriffs guy
was recently fired from his job allegedly and then made
online threats targeting churches, one in particular. I would never

(57:30):
take my own life, but I understand the people I'm
going to go after are and potentially could be dangerous.
And he names the church Christ Fellowship in Palm Beach
County is on my list to hit. Also, my end
game is taking you out. It's not necessarily the people
that are yelling that you need to be worried about.

(57:51):
It's the quiet ones. It's the ones that no longer
fear death. I expect death to come fast and very violent.
Hopefully I go out fast. And so he's posting all
this stuff, and he lived a mile and a half
away from this church and had gone so far as

(58:11):
to sign up for a class at the church to
learn more about the church, kind of a way of
casing the place. So I guess my point is this
guy's threatening his own version of genocide. He was caught, arrested,
and now is going to end up facing the consequences
for his threats. Thankfully nothing happened. But the moral of

(58:34):
this story is pay attention if you have a church.
Churches are being targeted. People are and he falls in
the age range of that generation two generations now of
young people that I said have never learned how to
cope with things. He got fired from a job. He

(58:55):
can't cope, so he's going to take it out on Christians.
So just pay attention to the cues around you, and
of course, with that.

Speaker 7 (59:12):
It leads us to yet another edition of no way Jose,
Good morning friends.

Speaker 1 (59:22):
Wait, you said that in English. I'm not used to
that for this, not today. I'm still apping about your
beefy what me? What? What's the beefy segment? What? I
don't know what you're talking? Yeah, I know. Go ahead.

Speaker 2 (59:40):
So we got something that was discovered in Jerusalem. Archaeologists
uncovered the first ever Assyrian inscription, which was found in Jerusalem.
It was found in the Zurim Valley National Park, originally
part of the rubble near the Western Wall. Okay, it's
a two point five centimeter pottery fragment with the Acadian

(01:00:04):
Cuneiform script dating back to two thousand, seven hundred years ago.
So it's it provides a rare evidence of communication between
king of Assyria and the King of Judah in.

Speaker 1 (01:00:19):
The Old Tests. What have we been studying in the Bible? Right?

Speaker 2 (01:00:23):
Yeah, So it's likely it was likely sent during the
reign of Hezekiah Manassa or Josiah Ye when Judah was
a vassal state under Assyrian rule. Now, it's interesting because
it talks a lot or not a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:00:38):
But you know, because it's a little little.

Speaker 2 (01:00:39):
Fragment, but it mentions chariot officers and a deadline.

Speaker 1 (01:00:45):
Really yeah, no way, Jose, Yeah, absolutely, that's crazy, yeah, crazy,
two seven hundred years ago. But as we are seeing
and we come across these stories a couple times a month,
it seems like more and more evidence to support what
the Bible says. We've been saying the Bible's history, it's

(01:01:07):
a book of history. Tomorrow, in fact, tomorrow on the program,
we are going to talk about a recent sort of
but growing evidence that they might have found Noah's ark.
You'll never guess where the mountains of aer Rat, just

(01:01:30):
like the Bible said. No. I mean, this is cool,
high end science stuff. Cannot wait to talk about that.
That's coming up tomorrow on the radio program. All right,
when we come back, we have doctor Bob McClure joining
us from the James Madison Institute. Got a lot of

(01:01:52):
things to talk about with Bob next, So stick around.
It's our number three of the Morning Show with Preston
Scott and here we are the third and final hour

(01:02:13):
of the show for the day. It is Wednesday, November twelfth.
Here in the Morning Show with Preston scottis ose I'm
Preston and cozying up to the microphone. That's a not
so subtle way of saying, grab the microphone and pull
it closer. Is doctor Bob McClure, President of the James
Madison Institute, Hello.

Speaker 6 (01:02:31):
Hy buddy, how are you? I'm well, how about you
dressed for the weather? I say, am, I am. I've
got to pretend to be important every once in a while. Well, no,
I mean I just love the cool weather hitting a.

Speaker 1 (01:02:40):
Little early this year, the lightest thing in the world. Yeah,
absolutely love it. We were just talking in the break.
What is your sense on how things will shake out
for this final legislative session for Ron de Santis. Does
he get to run through the tape or is he
going to have to fight through what's going on with
leadership in particular in the House.

Speaker 6 (01:02:59):
I do think he's going to have to do some
fighting in the House. I don't think we have recovered
from last legislative session. Having said that, it's in the
best interest of a lot of those folks in the
legislature with an election year coming up, to do some
of the right things. And I've said this before, I've

(01:03:21):
said it many times. I mean this governor, I mean,
he could be coasting if he wanted to on his
legacy and what he has done so far for this
state in the last seven years. And the man is
running through the tape and I'm really really excited. I mean,
you think about what we've had. We started with Jeb
we had a little blip with Charlie Criss, then we

(01:03:43):
had Rick Scott, two very very forward thinking governors. Then
we get Ron DeSantis, and the man has been bold,
he's been innovative, he's been thoughtful and really preston.

Speaker 1 (01:03:57):
Look.

Speaker 6 (01:03:57):
I mean, the proof is in the putting look at
the state, whether it's our economic health, whether it's people
moving here, whether it's our economic opportunity.

Speaker 1 (01:04:08):
The biggest issue, which you and I.

Speaker 6 (01:04:10):
Have talked about a lot, is for lots of reasons,
kind of a witch's brew of reasons. The cost of
living is challenging for a lot of people in the state,
and that's something that we have to address. But the
governor is at least trying to address this with his
property tax issue.

Speaker 1 (01:04:25):
The word that I would use to describe Governor as
Santus is the word relentless. Oh my God just has
not touched the pause button. To your point about running
through the tape, I hear him, and I hear the
same tone and the same resiliency and the same determination
that I heard in his first year in office.

Speaker 6 (01:04:45):
It's exactly the same. Look at what he did just
a year and a half ago with the amendments three
and four. Right, whether you agree with those amendments or
not the weed amendment in the abortion amendment, doesn't matter
where you are politically. He put all his chips. He
was the only person in the state who was willing
to do this. He put all his chips in the middle,
and he won. And he has moved from there to

(01:05:08):
run for president or I guess he got it the
other way around. He's run for president, he's defeated those amendments,
and now he doesn't have to have this property tax discussion, right.
I mean, he could have just sailed off into the sunset.

Speaker 1 (01:05:21):
Next administration if they want to do it.

Speaker 6 (01:05:23):
But he hasn't, and so relentless is an excellent term.
I mean, he is kind of like you know this,
this this Nick Saban of governors, in the sense that
he he gets back to work. I mean Lane Kiffin
tells the story of Saban winning the national championship, saying
telling everybody, all right, we'll see it at seven thirty
Monday morning to get to work. And the governor has
been tremendous.

Speaker 1 (01:05:44):
Well, you've said all along, good policy makes for good politics,
and he is a policy wonk if there ever was
one in the governor's office. Yeah, yeah, he is.

Speaker 6 (01:05:55):
But I think I think the dynamic back to your
original question, because it's it. It is an election year.
These men and women in the legislature understand that you've
got every office cabinet off, everybody's up for election. I
think you're gonna see a little more play nice this year.
And I think the Governor's going to get some things
he wants on the property tax issue.

Speaker 1 (01:06:15):
I don't know what they are. Yeah, I believe we will.
Doctor Bob McClure with me this morning. We got more
to talk about. Stay with us ten minutes past. We're
gonna take a quick check of whether and traffic and
back with more. Back with doctor Bob McClure, James Madison Institute.

(01:06:59):
He's president. We affectionately refer to it by its initials. JMI.
You've got in your hands. An article here, Bob that
that I thought was interesting, and it's and it's an
issue that the governor has over the years tried to
make some headway on. And it is sort of creating
Florida inside the moat of all the noise on healthcare

(01:07:24):
and creating some safe base space inside the state of Florida.
But what is China's impact and influencing healthcare and what
can Florida do about it?

Speaker 6 (01:07:32):
Well, let's start, let's back up just a hair. The
governor has already taken tremendously bold action against the CCP
influence in the state of Florida. Right They've blocked land
purchases near military bases, scrutinizing kind of university partnerships and
the money that the CCP may be giving folks, and
strengthening kind of various consumer protections. The AGE has also

(01:07:56):
helped uncover foreign threats to our digital infrastructure. But I
think there's another component to at preston that we need
to think about, and that is the technology that patients
use and hospitals use to keep themselves alive. So think
about it this way. It's not an urgent issue, but
it poses long term risks to patient privacy and to

(01:08:18):
our health care security. So think of it this way.
Devices such as Internet connected monitors, pumps, diagnostic tools, those
kinds of things are now made by the CCP are
all now embedded in hospitals and clinics across the country.

Speaker 1 (01:08:33):
I mean, that's like in our power grid, that's right,
with the transformers that we now know have embedded technology
that can literally turn our power grid dark. The same
vulnerability exists inside healthcare.

Speaker 6 (01:08:44):
Yes, yes, and you think of you think of the
rare earth minerals discussion.

Speaker 1 (01:08:50):
It's the same kind of component.

Speaker 6 (01:08:52):
And so what you have is that that kind of
integration has come with this invisible cost, and that's dependent
on companies that operate under the authority of the CCP okay,
and that's that's a huge issue when it who and
they can compel access to data or cooperation on espionage
efforts with some of these healthcare components, and that's something

(01:09:15):
we need to focus on here in the state.

Speaker 1 (01:09:17):
Are you surprised that the federal government hasn't taken more
action given the exposure that we saw during COVID.

Speaker 6 (01:09:25):
Yes, yes, i am, I'm i'm Let me let me
back up. With that federal government under Joe Biden. No, right,
I'm not because they had a completely different agenda. Well,
Joe was beholden to the Chinese. That's right, that's right,
that's right. But they were also focused on I would argue,

(01:09:46):
this is not a conspiracy theorist thing changing the very
fabric of the country in four years in so many
different ways. And so whether it was how the federal
government funded NGOs, whether it was the Green New Deal
which turned out to be a disaster, and Bill Gates
has confirmed that, yeah, whether it's the border was open,

(01:10:08):
but no, they told us it was secure. So who
you're gonna believe me or your lying eyes, all of
those kinds of things. They were not focused on the
role of the CCP and its threat. Remember the spy
balloon that flew over half the country. And now we're
talking about healthcare devices. This is a very real issue

(01:10:28):
where they can mine data. You know, people are talking
about TikTok and they're talking about rare earth minerals and
how China can kind of grab a hold of America
kind of strangled them by the throat. Well, also in
healthcare devices where they can mine data and they can
do these kinds of things. It's a very real issue,
and it's not something we think about on a daily basis. Well,
we saw the story and we talked about it here

(01:10:48):
on the program that baby monitors. Some of the most
popular baby monitors had technology inside that allowed the Chinese
government to monitor, as you say, just lifestyle, what people
are doing, what kinds of choices they're making inside their
homes in real time.

Speaker 1 (01:11:03):
Right.

Speaker 6 (01:11:04):
And so the president wants to bring manufacturing back here.
And that's one of the critical reasons why. Now you know,
he was interviewed by Laura Ingram a couple of nights ago,
and he was talking about students, Chinese students at at
colleges and some of these other things. I don't he

(01:11:24):
sees it as less of a threat. I don't agree.
I think they're all potential spies. I agree the CCP
is playing the long game. In the long game is
one hundred years, right, and we Americans barely played the
game of two years, right, And so we're talking about midterms,
So that's an issue.

Speaker 1 (01:11:39):
I don't agree with the president. I think the CCP
is a very real threat to the future of the nation. Yeah,
and I think they just celebrated when New York City
went socialism. Sure they did. Yeah. More to come with
doctor Bob McClure of the James Madison Institute here on
the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Back with doctor Bob

(01:12:16):
McClure the James Madison Institute. When we're talking, Hey, quick
follow up.

Speaker 6 (01:12:20):
This is kind of an obscure issue about this healthcare
and China's influence and all these things. For your listeners,
they can go to James Madison dot org. Doug Wheeler
wrote a great piece, one of our policy director for
the Gibsoner for Economic Prosperity at JMI. Doug Wheeler wrote
a great piece for Florida Politics and it's called Florida

(01:12:43):
Must Lead on securing healthcare from China's influence. So it's
an obscure issue, but your listeners can go find that
piece learn a whole lot more about this issue at
James Maadison dot org.

Speaker 1 (01:12:52):
They rely on obscure. Yeah, as you said, they play
the long game, and they play it exceptionally well. But
that's what the left does. We were talking earlier about
just how good Florida's sitting with problems to be solved
to be sure. But then you see this study. We've

(01:13:13):
talked about it quite a bit. FAU releases a poll
that shows nearly fifty percent of Floridians considering leaving the
state because of cost of living primarily and driving. That
we've talked about quite a bit, and that's the cost
of housing. What do you make of the fact that

(01:13:34):
one out of two is now thinking of doing a
U turn and leaving the state.

Speaker 6 (01:13:38):
Yeah, I'm I'm first of all, I'm not sure where
they would go.

Speaker 1 (01:13:44):
Well, that's what I said, grass is always greener type thing.
But be careful, you know, this is a different state
when it comes to that kind of thing. So what
do we And that's a high number.

Speaker 6 (01:13:54):
It sounds like one out of five or six, But
I mean, you know, the way people respond to polls
some times preston compared to what they actually do. Right,
So look at the state. We have almost a thousand
people moving to this state a year. Okay almost what
I say a year year? I meant yeah, and so
a thousand people a day. And so you know what

(01:14:15):
you've seen is Miami has become the new Silicon Valley.
We're seeing that happen over and over. Ken Griffin, whether
it's Ken Griffin or all of this investment that's happening
in Miami. For Fortune magazine called Palm Beach the Wall
Street of the South. And now with the most recent
mayoral election in New York City, that's going.

Speaker 1 (01:14:36):
To hasten speed. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:14:38):
Yeah, but Florida does have. What this poll reveals is
that there is a very real issue and the cost
of living is a very real issue in the state.
And these aren't people in Palm Beach in Miami. These
are people in Lakeland and people in Melbourne, and people
in Quincy and people in you know, Live Oak and

(01:15:01):
you know, this is real. This is true Americana, this
is Middle America, and it is expensive, and it's expensive
for a number of reasons. We've talked about it, but
it's kind of this. It's property insurance, which is slowly
coming down, even though you know, I don't think all
for Flordians.

Speaker 1 (01:15:17):
Feel it just yet, it's at least stabilizing. Stabilizing for sure,
State Farm just filed for a rate reduction. I think
it was twenty percent Progressives filed for a rate reduction.
So people are going to see that happening now. But
housing is a very real component of that, and that
is traditionally at the local level, it makes it harder

(01:15:38):
to build homes, or those homes that they do build
are far more expensive because of permitting, wait times, pay go,
whatever the terms are that you want to use for builders.
All Right, we need more housing.

Speaker 6 (01:15:53):
This fifty year mortgage is that Trump proposed is not
going to solve the problems it is. It's ridiculous. We
need more housing, and people say, oh, we need more
affordable housing.

Speaker 1 (01:16:04):
We just need housing.

Speaker 6 (01:16:05):
Build housing, because what happens in a market is that
when you build houses that people need and want, they
move into those houses. The other houses become vacant, and
then the market begins to move and it brings down
the cost of housing. Yep, last thing I'll say on
the cost of living under Joe Biden, inflation accumulatively was

(01:16:29):
twenty one percent. Okay, that's a staggering It is a
staggering number. And the Trump administration has not solved that issue.
I'm not blaming them. Okay, they've been in office nine months,
but they need to wake up.

Speaker 1 (01:16:43):
And I saw.

Speaker 6 (01:16:44):
Steven Miller begin to change the messaging after the election.
They need to wake up every day and say, look,
it's working. We haven't done enough. We have a long
way to go. We inherited a complete train wreck. But
we are going to bring down the cost of living

(01:17:05):
and we are going to focus on it every day.
They need to be careful. And because remember under Joe Biden,
they kept saying, oh, Biden, economics is working, it's working,
it's working. Well, who you're gonna believe me or your
lying eyes right right? And Trump needs they need to
be careful. They don't need to fall into that same
thing of saying, well things are getting better, suck it up.

Speaker 1 (01:17:24):
So to speak. Right, Tell me this, though, what can
the government do beyond the regulatory environment that drives prices down?
I don't know of them. Well they can they get
energy is everything? Right right? So we're and we're making
that better, right right, But it takes a minute. It

(01:17:44):
takes time.

Speaker 6 (01:17:46):
And so whether they're opening up more drilling, more opportunity
for natural gas, they're bringing down regulations the middle man
or the middle woman in the energy sector. But if
you need to can you need to focus on energy
and also you know, focus on you know, ag is
another area like grocery prices in those kinds of We

(01:18:07):
got to deal with small agg and help them right,
reduce the cost of doing business and the consumer will benefit.
But it's gonna take time. But the Trump administration needs
to be careful. The answer is not, Hey, things are
getting better, you just don't see it. It needs to be.
We wake up every day to make things better, but
we have a ways to go, yeah, and explain why
they're bad.

Speaker 1 (01:18:28):
Correct. All right, thank you, Bob, appreciate the time. Thanks
for having me. Doctor Bob McClure, President of the James
Madison Institute, My guest. The Big Stories in the press
Box are next in Show with Preston Scott.

Speaker 5 (01:18:48):
Fun News Radio one hundred point seven double USLA.

Speaker 1 (01:19:06):
Thirty six minutes after the hour of the Morning Show
with Preston Scott. We're going to take a little time
in this segment here to talk about one of the
big stories in the press box, and it is the
Clinton corruption. When Hillary was in office, was there some

(01:19:27):
while Bill was in office? Maybe a little bit I
could work with Bill. And I don't mean like you know,
I'm speaking from experience. I'm just saying, as a guy,
I feel like I could sit across from Bill Clinton
and though he might lie to through his teeth, which
he did under oath. I could have a conversation with

(01:19:47):
him Mayby. You know we were right about that impresary.
You're right. I mean, we could have a talk. But Hillary,
now she was another story because Hillary felt owed. She
he didn't divorce Bill when the Lewinsky scandal hit. She
stayed in there, and she to this day believes she

(01:20:09):
was owed the presidency. The Clinton Foundation is in trouble
because what we all suspected is now coming out in documents.
There were whistleblowers going back to twenty fifteen, twenty nineteen,

(01:20:30):
twenty eighteen. I mean, detailing the pay to play inside
the Clinton Foundation. So what I wanted to do is
just point out just how simple this is to analyze.
You're somebody that wants impact and influence inside the United

(01:20:52):
States government. All right, so you own Biff's widgets, and
Biff's widgets it needs a little help, needs a few
wheels greased by the federal government to get done what
you want to get done at the margins. You want
to get it done, so you make a donation to

(01:21:12):
the Clinton Foundation. Let's say you make a five million
dollar donation sixty percent of that went to people administrative
costs first, Uh, name me other five oh one C
three's that sixty percent is administrative and that's a numerical fact.

(01:21:33):
So you're raking in all of these kinds of donations.
Why well, because one member is an ex president of
the Clinton Foundation and the other is sitting as Secretary
of State. So all of these hundreds of millions of

(01:21:54):
dollars are flowing in. If it for altruistic causes, for
all of these programs in different parts of the world,
then you're giving this money to do good things. And

(01:22:15):
whether someone's in office or not, it doesn't matter, because
you're giving to the cause. Right, You're giving to what
the foundation stands for and what it supports. But if
that foundation stands for and supports only greasing the wheels
of government by being an insider and giving you access

(01:22:37):
to that by virtue of a payment, then what happens
when that organization no longer has favor inside the government?

Speaker 4 (01:22:48):
Ie?

Speaker 1 (01:22:49):
Hillary Clinton was not elected president, she was no longer
the Secretary of State, and Bill Clinton was just out
there being bubba. What happens all of those hundreds of
millions of dollars that were given to the foundation for
access to the government. What happens to that money? It

(01:23:10):
dries up, it goes away, it stops Why because they
have no benefit. There is no pop for the buck.
They're not getting anything in return. There was no altruistic cause,
There was no warm and fuzzy story at the end
of it. It wasn't feeding and clothing the starving poor

(01:23:31):
children of the world. It wasn't bringing medical care to
places that don't have any. It wasn't any number of
these good causes that ostensibly you could say, maybe they're
lining up and supporting. My god, it wasn't even climate change.
As bizarre as and as ridiculous and absurd as that is,

(01:23:56):
My point is the money dried up. No one is
giving money to the Clintons anymore. None Why they don't
have influence. The fact that the spicket dried up is
the proof that it was a pay to play scam
on the front end. To begin with, it's common sense.

(01:24:21):
It's it's Ockham's razor. It's the straight line between the
two points. I mean, it's take your pick. We've just
not sent anybody to jail over it. Yet, we've not
seen anybody face charges and have to explain this. The

(01:24:41):
Clinton Foundation's taking the how dare you? How Darris, you
pedaled our government to enrich yourself? You mean, how dare us?
How dare you? That is the best explanation you'll find

(01:25:03):
to illustrate and prove without me submitting anything else, that
the Clinton Foundation was nothing but a money laundering scheme
to give money to the Clintons in return for access
to the federal government of the United States of America.
I rest my case. Forty two minutes passing, I ran long, Yeah,

(01:25:25):
I know, what do you do?

Speaker 4 (01:25:25):
It's my show tomorrow on the program. Noah is zac
eh eh, oh yeah, good stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:25:49):
I was going to do a story. I don't have
time because I went long. It's a piece by Virgil Walker.
Name one masculine man and the Democratic Party. You need
your mic on more often?

Speaker 2 (01:26:11):
Well the show just be me laughing because you have
me dining back here at now.

Speaker 1 (01:26:15):
She was funny with that, just that headline, right, I
never thought of it really, and you said, name one
masculine man and the Democratic Party. I didn't write it,
Virgil did. It's a couple of weeks old, and I'm
just gonna tease the beginning, because I don't have time
to deal with this today. I will though this might
be perfect fodder for a Friday. Name one masculine man

(01:26:39):
in the Democratic Party. You can't because the men they
celebrate act like women. Oh, we'll have some fun with that.
If not this week, soon Tomorrow's on the program Steve Stewart,
Doctor David Hart's give you a road Trip Idea. The

(01:27:00):
other big stories in the press box besides the Clinton
corruption files. And by the way, there there are documents.
Bucket loads of documents have been handed to Congress by
the Department of Justice and the FBI. A little back
and forth between the President and Marjorie Taylor Green. You know,

(01:27:26):
on one hand, you can say, you know, the President
really needs to step back into a little evaluation if
you're losing people like Marjorie Taylor Green from your side
because she's been an ardent supporter of Trump. But again,
you know, I've had it phrased to me this way,
and I like it. You know, I've always said I'm
not an always Trumper and I'm not a never Trumper.

(01:27:48):
Someone put it this way. I am Trump a la carte.
There are things that Trump does, thank you very much.
I'll have that. There are other things. No, not today,
and that's true. Now, are we infinitely better off under

(01:28:08):
Trump than we would have been? Yeah, so it's not close.
Does it mean, though, that I will rubber stamp and say, oh,
he's incredible everything he does. No, I won't because he's not.
He's not an ardent conservative. He's conservative on some issues,

(01:28:33):
there are other issues. He's moved us to socialism. That's
a true statement. I can factually back it up. So
we've got this little back and forth between Marjorie Taylor
Green and the President. But yet Marjorie Taylor Green is
supporting the extension of subsidies for Obamacare when it's already subsidized.

(01:28:56):
I'll end with a good one. Coastguard has a record
high recruit numbers, in fact, the highest, not record, the
highest recruiting numbers in thirty five years. So there you go.
Come back and wrap up this mess known as the
Morning Show. All right, this is my second plug of

(01:29:23):
the day for Orphan Shade, where I'm going to ask
you to please prayerfully consider donating and for any business
out there, if you're able to get big or an individual,
it's able to because you're you know your personal business,

(01:29:43):
you're self employed. You've done well. You got the money
to spare. A five thousand dollars donation to Orphan Shade
will earn you. The first person to donate the five
thousand dollars gets a one one hour private piano concert
from Marvin Goldstein. Got to be in the Tallasse area

(01:30:12):
and have a piano that you have available to you
that's tuned or an eighty eight key way to key keyboard,
that's fine. Got a old piano setting or different settings.
That's all he'll need. He'll take it from there. So
if you can go to Orphanshade dot com click donate

(01:30:32):
home number six you're going to build a house, and
the drop down home number six in the comments or WFLA.
That will do it. And we thank you. We raised
almost one thousand dollars yesterday. Love to see us do
that again today. All right, all right, brought to you
by Barno Heating and Air. It's the Morning Show one
on WFLA. Look back at the radio program in one

(01:30:58):
and eighty seconds or less. We started the show with
one Corinthians thirteen, verse eight. One portion of verse eight.
Love never ends period in we talked about that, talked
about what that means, how it reveals itself, and that
was our devotional for the day. My thanks to doctor

(01:31:19):
Bob McClure JMI for joining us our big stories. Coast
Guard hits the highest recruiting numbers in nearly thirty five years. Now,
why would that be? Why are we back to recruiting
over our goals? You'd have to think that Donald Trump
and Pete Hesath has something to do with that. Making
the military back to the military not a social engineering experiment.

(01:31:43):
Clinton corruption files Pam Bondi Cash Betel giving a massive
amount of documents to Congress, evidence detailing the corruption inside
the Clinton Foundation and the pay to play allegations that
we have all known. We're taking place. President a little
back and forth, little clapping back and forth with Marjorie

(01:32:04):
Taylor Green of Georgia. It's sad, just is the unhinged
voicemail of a a gen X gen Z lefty in Montana.
She uh, her voicemail was something to behold. It's just

(01:32:25):
just further illustration, over and over and over and over.
The violence, the hate, the spewing almost exclusively almost from
the left. Talked about the Journal of American Medical Association.
They're taking the fight against firearms. They want to they
want to kill the Second Amendment. Now it's firearm harms.

(01:32:48):
That's that's the new term. Covered a lot about other ground.
A little Florida man thrown in there as well. Tomorrow
we'll tee it up and do it again. Friends, have
a great day.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
