Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to the Jonathan and Kelly Show.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Jonathan Rush, somebody that I love dearly, recently said that
fear is the tool of a tyrant.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
But I'm not afraid Kelly Nash.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Don't think for one second that you can come down here,
flash a badge and make me nervous.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Jonathan and Kelly Show.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
Oh, a very defiant James Colony. Let's have tough guy.

Speaker 4 (00:25):
Oh my god, he's a tough guy. You want a trial?
Okay for your requests, sir, get ready for some legal fees.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
We get to the some of that coming up in
segment three. This is Jonathan Rush. Hello, Kelly Nash, Hello,
welcome to a very uh if he kind of forecast
kind of Saturday in South Carolina.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
We got a lot of things coming down.

Speaker 4 (00:45):
Maybe maybe it'll be better by the time this airs,
because we recorded Friday morning, so hopefully by Saturday morning
at eleven, they're telling us it's going to be great
for kickoff.

Speaker 3 (00:55):
I go, yeah, go ahead, I just hope.

Speaker 4 (00:57):
I mean, I it sucks that you only get a
home games per year. And now the South Carolina State
game was a disaster because of the rain, and now
as of Friday morning, it looks like we're gonna get
a lot of rain on Saturday afternoon into the evening.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Yeah, it's not gonna be good. It's a continuation what's
been a very trying week. We started the week on
a trying note after the Memorial service and then the
fallout the Democrats screaming. So we'll try to pick up
here and look for the answers in what is a
continuation of a story that continues to try to be

(01:31):
a story. But and I believe the posting career is
trying hard. So it's a state newspaper, all the news
agencies trying to figure out what the heck's going on
at the South Carolina lection Commission. We'll delve into that
further coming up. Also, we've got a problem on Monkey Island.
We can deal with that in segment four.

Speaker 4 (01:48):
It's one of those things where it all gets back
to Trump. Trump. No matter what Trump does, the left
is going to be pissed. They are pissed.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
We got to find out a way to do some
human testing for US, research desperately needed on hypocrisy. Maybe
the monkeys can give us an insight if we can
figure out a way to get some testing done.

Speaker 4 (02:07):
There can we get people on the left to volunteer's
tribute as tribute to release the monkeys.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
And we've also been at minus. Now if you're a
supporter of the Freedom Caucus. Now we're getting personal with
these at monus. That's coming up in segment two. So
about a week ago, maybe a little longer now. Howard Knapp,
the head of the Election Commission here in South Carolina,
and the backdrop of what it was already a little
controversy with the federal government reaching into the database of

(02:36):
our South Carolina elections to find out more about our
voters and we needed to protect that information from the
federal government.

Speaker 4 (02:45):
That is such a bizarre position for South Carolina. Have
we heard from Alan Wilson on this? Because to me,
doesn't the federal government already know my home address? Doesn't
the federal government know everything about me?

Speaker 2 (03:00):
I mean even that you file taxes and they issued
your Social Security number.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
I think they pretty much have all that information.

Speaker 4 (03:06):
They and they have my banking numbers because I used
direct deposit for my returns. I mean, they know everything
about me. What are you protecting me from?

Speaker 2 (03:14):
Well, we have one South Carolina citizens stand up and
say this is an invasion.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Of her privacy.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Now that controversy has nothing to do with the fact
that Howard Knapp was released as the Elections of the
South Carolina Election Commission or Executives director.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
That has nothing to do with that.

Speaker 4 (03:33):
I mean, and that's so they introduced that into the
story to say that it had nothing to do with it,
which is bizarre that you would bring that up now.
But he's out.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
He's out.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
But furthermore, the story from months ago about another investigation
from SLED where he was deemed not part of the investigation,
that has nothing.

Speaker 4 (03:53):
To do So I'm reading now from uh, I guess
this is yesterday's state newspaper. The deputy director has been fired.
Her name is was it Paige Salonach or something like that. Yes,
But inside the story it says investigation from SLED was
launched last week according to this into SLED involving Nap

(04:13):
and Solonage.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
So I don't know what's.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
Going on with SLED. I don't know what's going on
with anybody over here. The good, good, good news is though,
that when you fire the director of elections and then
you fire like a day later the deputy director of Elections.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
She was elevated to that position.

Speaker 4 (04:32):
They want you to know that that that has no
effect on how we run elections. So why do we
have these people employed here? If the director and deputy
director have no effect on elections, what is their purpose?

Speaker 2 (04:45):
I'm going to assume, given the way the articles are written,
in the information we have available, that once she was
elevated to the director position, the executive director position, it
was pointed out that she gets a little mauy over
here with the staff and she doesn't like her job,
as it related in the article.

Speaker 4 (05:02):
Well, didn't we read an article where she wasn't saying
she didn't like her job. She just felt like she
was what does she say, I'm being helping out hostage
by this job, and so I don't think. Look, is
it harder for me to believe that that's why she
was fired or more likely that was an excuse given
as to why she.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
Was fired, Well, that was the real reason because she
was in the training room, which is equipped with recording devices,
but she was recorded planting at the recording device.

Speaker 4 (05:34):
The way I understand it is, yes, it's a training room,
but it's also where they have their meetings, and so
she came in with what's described as a recording device.
I'll say it's her phone and turned it on in
plain view of everybody and said, basically, so, because you

(05:54):
people keep lying about me, I am going to record
this whole meeting. And then they said you can't. And
now the term that they're throwing around is wire tap.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
Yeah, that's an interesting use of a word used previously
in the sixties in a television code called television show
called Dragnet.

Speaker 4 (06:13):
What wire was tapped?

Speaker 2 (06:15):
The only time I've read it recently is what Donald
Trump claimed at two o'clock in the morning that he
had been wire tap, which goes back to the coming
thing we'll deal with in segment three. But wiretap is
not usually a term that we used.

Speaker 4 (06:26):
Obama's been wire tapping. So she's over there wire tapping
in plain view. And again, it's okay when the commission
records all the activities in that room, but when I
tell you I'm recording the activities in this room, I
am then unceremoniously fired and charged with wire tapping. This
is a bizarre story.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
And then they elevated the chief of staff, who is
now the new interim director. Now, what we're going to
find out about her. I guess we'll read the next
week's newspaper as to why she has to be removed.
But TikTok, we look, we're beginning here at October in
a couple of days, and we got elections that are
going to be facilitated November the fourth.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
Yeah, I mean, we're just I guess slightly over a
month away from our first election. And again those people
had no effect on elections. Well, well, how many more
people can we fire and it doesn't affect the elections?

Speaker 2 (07:12):
We can ask Mistigu Mistigue of the No linig Yeah,
lin Tigu told you don't worry. Everything's okay because we
have a qualified staff who we know can facilitate the
elections coming up.

Speaker 4 (07:25):
But she doesn't even work there.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
No, that's Women Voters.

Speaker 4 (07:31):
So how could you comment on an organization that you're
not associated with and how effective or ineffective they're going
to be.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
And then after that comment is made from persons that
we will take as her standing credibility as a legal
women Voter spokesperson, and I think she's the director of
it if she's confident with the fact that we don't
need an executive director an interim executive director or someone
to step in.

Speaker 4 (07:55):
We have the interim, isn't that the third in charge
is now the interim. Yes, so we fired the deputy
and the director, but that didn't matter.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
And I'm just guessing given the salary of Howard Nap,
I'm just guessing in the state of South Carolina, we've
had to save like three hundred thousand dollars, maybe three hundred.

Speaker 3 (08:11):
And fifty thousand.

Speaker 4 (08:12):
According to this, the deputy director paid Salonage was paid
an annual salary of one hundred and forty one thousand,
seven hundred and eighty eight dollars a year. I'm going
to put Howard at probably won seventy.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
Five, Okay, So that's a good guess.

Speaker 4 (08:25):
So I mean, if you're saving i don't know, three
four five hundred thousand dollars a year in salaries and
it doesn't affect the quality of the elections, you have
to ask yourself, why would you restock that position. We
should eliminate it from the payroll forever.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
And given that we don't even know why exactly these persons, well,
we do know why. The interim who was fired, Paige, she's.

Speaker 4 (08:48):
The deputy director. I'm sorry, not the interim.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
She didn't even make it long enough to be called
the inter director after Howard was unceremoniously dismissed.

Speaker 4 (08:56):
Yeah, she was fired on Tuesday. I think Howard was fired,
like on Friday or Monday, that's right. So the deputy director,
Pagelona's terminated Tuesday for a variety of offenses, including wire
tapping and for unseemly language used with an earshot of
the public which I guess they all clutched their pearls,

(09:16):
which we were able to see probably on her recording.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
Look, given the federal governments overreach in previous decades overseeing
our elections because of our history, now we can't deny
that we needed We didn't need oversight, but they wanted
to supply it, so we had to go through extra scrutiny.
With everything ever to do with the elections in the
state of South Carolina, you would think that this agency
would have a heightened awareness of the efficiency so that

(09:41):
it would be beyond reproach because of the federal government's
history of already looking at South Carolina's elections as something
constantly nefarious going on.

Speaker 4 (09:49):
I don't know if we read this in the story earlier.
But this seems like breaking news inside that story to me,
so perhaps you already read it and you're going to
be like Yon Yawn on Monday sent the commission a
letter of resignation. Huh so, Paige Soalonich on Monday attempted
to resign according to this, We have received your communication

(10:11):
regarding your intent to resign from your position as Deputy
director with the South Carolina State Election Commission. Please be
advised that the agency will not accept your resignation, wrote
the administrative manager, Sharise Johnson to Salonich on late Monday,
and then she was fired on Tuesday. I can't resign

(10:31):
exactly what is going on over here now? If I
read right in this story, page has got herself a
good lawyer. Mister Griffin will be representing her, so that's
probably going to end well for her, bad for you
and I the taxpayer. Yes, has accepted her case, and
he says she does not wish to comment at this time.

(10:53):
I'm sure mister Griffin will be making comments at an
appropriate time mostly, but thank you for the check.

Speaker 3 (11:01):
What you want to talk about lawyering up? But do
you just go ahead and get both of them?

Speaker 2 (11:05):
Can you was Harpootlium busy fighting liquor licenses at five points?

Speaker 3 (11:09):
What the he's on?

Speaker 4 (11:11):
Standby?

Speaker 2 (11:12):
Okay, we went through four different articles from four different
days to tell you that we don't know what the
hell is going on to the South Carolina Election Commission.
And this is the first time that I hope and
pray that mistigue is correct.

Speaker 4 (11:23):
We don't need any of these.

Speaker 3 (11:24):
We don't need.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
No, the election in six weeks then, easy peasy. Then't
ballots count themselves? What are you talking about? Not a problem,
South cat We got this handle. Oh, we have may
or races coming up November fourth, not a problem.

Speaker 4 (11:37):
Can we get what's her name back from Richland County?
What was her name back in twenty twelve. I can't
remember her name. She couldn't be fired. I remember that.

Speaker 2 (11:46):
Anything having to do with the South Carolina Election Commission.
No matter how much that sounds like a debacle, it
is nothing compared to Richland County. No, we're still counting
bags and bags of ballots over there.

Speaker 4 (11:58):
Yeah, we find them every now and again. Then yeah,
they say, oh Mitt Romney could have won. Is this
another vote for John McCain?

Speaker 2 (12:09):
Hold on a second, we got to get into a
little bit of a monishment here. I don't know where
you're lining up politically. You better be thinking twice before
you think about even thinking it. Don't think about supporting
someone who's thinking about becoming a member of the Freedom Caucus.

Speaker 3 (12:23):
And we'll tell you.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
Why next the Jonathan and Kelly Show.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
Jonathan Rush, you know the history of policing in this country,
then you understand that they were born out of slave patrols.

Speaker 5 (12:34):
When I see ICE, I see slave patrols.

Speaker 6 (12:36):
Kelly Nash, every single ICE agent who's engaged in this
aggressive overreach and I'm trying to hide their identities will
be unsuccessful in doing that.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
And Kelly Show Hakeem himself says, we're gonna I'm gonna
doc if Crockett un and docs you, I'm docxing you,
and if we don't get you, then Gavenwsom is going
He's already written a law you can't wear a mask
in California.

Speaker 3 (12:59):
ICE agents, Well, who do you think you are?

Speaker 4 (13:01):
I mean, there's some sacred cows in America these days
that I hadn't anticipated, Like Jimmy Kimmel, tailan hall masks.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
We do have an interesting herd of sacred cows. Yeah,
and we all got a Democrat brand on them.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
Goodness grace.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
All right, we're going to get into more of that
coming up in segment three. In the beginning of the
week we were introducing you to and there was an
article in the paper he stormed the capitol in January
the sixth, Five years later, he could be in the
South Carolina State House. He is, according to the posting Courier,
Daniel Johnston, and he is running for House District ninety

(13:37):
eight and will be part of the primary coming up.

Speaker 4 (13:40):
That's down in the number fourth like near North Charleston.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
This article wants you to know up front of the headline,
you look, South Carolina's got a long history with insurrection. Okay,
as we get ready for SC two fifty, we could
be doing tourists at battlefields on the original insurrection. But
imagine this. Kelly Nash, a man who entered the capitol.
It says in the article he walked. He was like

(14:05):
twenty nine minutes he was strolling around in there. Did
he damage anything, no? Did he break anything no? Did
he hurt a police officer no?

Speaker 4 (14:12):
Did he steal something No?

Speaker 3 (14:14):
No he did not.

Speaker 4 (14:15):
He accepted the invitation of the Capitol Police to walk in.

Speaker 3 (14:18):
I believe that to be the case, but it doesn't
say that in the article.

Speaker 4 (14:21):
You know what else happened this week regarding the January sixth,
quote unquote insurrection, the worst day in American history is
a new report came out Friday that showed two hundred
and forty nine undercover agents with the FBI were in
the crowd that day. Now, that goes directly against what

(14:42):
Christopher Ray and James Comey said. There's no FBI agents
in the crowd. Why would we do that? Maybe a few, okay,
maybe three or four. Well, hew, you outnumbered the damn
regular people. It seems two hundred and forty nine of.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
You, first Donald Trump and now you hauling out the
integrity the man of a higher loyalty. You're calling out James,
call me all right, I'll let you continue that argument.

Speaker 4 (15:08):
Second three, this is so bizarre that that's I mean,
they continue to die on the January sixth hill, that
that is the worst day in American history. It was
a pretty bad day for the people who went there
because the entire system screwed them over. And like this guy,
he took a twenty nine minute stroll in the Capitol,
which just about any other day of the week would

(15:28):
have been accepted. That's fine, you just happened to pick
the bad day of January the sixth, even though the
police invited him in there, and he walked around, he
took the bait, and then he ended up doing twenty
one days in a federal prison, and he was on
probation for years until Donald Trump finally pardoned him.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
Not that there's a direct correlation between insurrectionists and apparently
what's the second worst thing in South Carolina, the House
Freedom Caucus, but there is concern obviously he would align
with them. And now that we've got the RJ. May
debacle unfolding before eyes, we know there's going to be
a special election for his seat. There's also two other

(16:05):
seats coming up District twenty one in Greenville, eighty eight
in Lexington that's RJ. May, and twelve in the upstate.
So we have special elections coming up for those, and
there is some serious concern here that persons who may
in particular District eighty eight Lexington County, and like, listen up,
you're being warned, don't even think about supporting a guy

(16:26):
who's thinking about supporting the Freedom Coalck.

Speaker 4 (16:29):
So I'm confused. Who's warning me about the serious concern
who's saying that whoever's running for rjay seat, if they
seem to align more with what Rjay's political beliefs are.
Certainly not his pornography habits, but they align with his
political beliefs, that would be horrific? Is that what I'm

(16:53):
being led to believe that if you were to say
I am more of a constitutionalist, I am somebody who
doesn't agree with the current state of Republican affairs in
the state of South Carolina.

Speaker 2 (17:03):
I'm glad you asked let me quote here the House
Majority what Brandon Newton? Okay, I don't know how anyone,
especially running in RJ's district specifically, can say how they
want to join the organization that he created after all
the horrible things he's been accused of and that led
to the Republicans splitting in the House.

Speaker 4 (17:24):
So because URJ may and we don't a no one
knows if he did all that stuff. So let's just
be clear, he's innocent till proven guilty. But even after
if he was found guilty, you're saying that anything that
he's associated with, Like, for example, URJ May authored a
bill to honor National Ping Pong Day in South Carolina.
We're gonna lose Ping Pong Day in South Carolina because

(17:46):
URJ May authored it.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
I don't know how you could possibly reach into your
pocket and pull out two balls and then a ping
pong paddle and play that game.

Speaker 4 (17:55):
Would I feel filthy playing ping pong from henceforth? Because
r Jay supported ping pong in this great state?

Speaker 3 (18:02):
He did?

Speaker 4 (18:02):
You pointed out he said the pledge of allegiance. Do
I have to give that up? Anything he's been associated with.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
I'm just now thinking to myself, God, I hope he
didn't wear Levi's. I love Levi's jeans, but I don't
want to be associated with RJ. May if, in fact
he's found guilty of some of the things that he's
found guilty of. Was that part of the RJ May
Blue Jen collection? No, but it was Levi's. Anything that
he was associated with. Did he like bo Jangles? Oh
my gosh, now I got to give that up.

Speaker 3 (18:28):
Look at the list of things I can't enjoy anymore.

Speaker 4 (18:30):
It this sounds like and I don't mean to offend
any Republicans. But the argument that they're making is feeling
very liberal, that they that because of this, then this
is this has to happen. We must so and so
was at the January sixth event, which up until the
moment that it turned ugly, would have been considered a

(18:53):
great patriotic sacrifice. Many people rallied at the Capitol. And
then I don't want to relitigate the whole thing, although
it is interesting information that there now we now know
according to the FBI records, there were two hundred and
forty nine undercover people apparently dressed as MAGA people. And
what else are we going to find out about it?
I'll let your imagination are on wild. But in the meantime,

(19:16):
you're telling me that because like if we found like
I'll give you another example, if George Washington was to
own slaves, then you're telling me that the whole founding
of the country is wasted. Like you can't have America
because because the founding fathers had slaves, the entire country,

(19:39):
the constitution is null and void.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
Now, didn't Jasmin Crockett explain that to you?

Speaker 4 (19:46):
That's very much a liberal argument that because somebody did
something bad, anything that they did good is wiped out.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
All I know is that we have got some serious
issues no matter who wins this race, and there's several
people who want to win the race because what happens now,
imagine if you win District eighty eight, if you step
up and say, I'm going to become a part of
the Freedom Caucus.

Speaker 4 (20:09):
And isn't the Freedom Caucus backing some guy? Oh yeah, yeah,
they're backing the guy in our jma's district. And apparently
the Republican establishment will call him. I won't call him
the swamp, although I know many in this state do
that the Republican establishment has got their guy. Yes, and
so that we're going to have a runoff here or
a primary. That's right, And so one is closely aligned

(20:33):
with the Freedom Caucus. And the only argument you have
against the guy. I mean, I'm not saying you can't
be against the guy. What I'm saying is you have
to have a better argument than he politically aligned with
the guy who founded the Freedom Caucus. Because a lot
of South Carolinians love what the Freedom Caucus represents, a
lot of them don't like the way they do things,
and so on and so forth. But you'd be hard

(20:53):
pressed to find a Republican if you were to just
read the Freedom Caucuses like what they're about, they would say, no, oh,
I don't align with that.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
Well, if you're looking for mud slinging, it's obviously good.
Just just based on the fact that today's the twenty
seventh of September, I can hardly ways get closer to
the special election dates in any of these three, and
in particular District eighty eight, because they've already started slinging mud.
Now is it much mud if that's your argument, not
a whole lot. So I don't know how far in

(21:22):
the mud we're going to get in this, but I
would imagine we're going to get pretty deep in the mud,
and there'll be a lot of money spent that make
sure you understand that anybody who's taking his I don't
even know how we even Why don't we just shut
down District eighty eight? How could you possibly have representation
for the district anymore?

Speaker 1 (21:38):
Been sy Sully.

Speaker 4 (21:39):
Should we sell every home and then just kind of
clear cut the woods or whatever is there? Just everything
is gone.

Speaker 3 (21:46):
We might read that next week. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
We'll find out we'll continue to follow the story. Segment
three is our favorite, a skull swamp talk. We do
that next.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
Jonathan and Kelly show Jonathan.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
Rush, strongest borders, the strongest military, the strongest friendships, and
the strongest spirit of any nation on the face of
the earth.

Speaker 1 (22:06):
Kelly Nash, this.

Speaker 4 (22:07):
Is indeed the Golden Age of America.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
Justin and Kelly show.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
I think Jnald Trump did a great job with you
in I though he did not get great reviews. You're
talking to You're talking to their faith. Yes he is
talking to your face. But how many South Carolinians Show
of hands thinks that every dag gum nation in the
UN building should have been evicted when I was in
high school, and we'd have turned that into some incredible
real estate office space in New York City.

Speaker 4 (22:32):
And then COVID came wrong and ruined office space. So
what's left in New York other than we've got socialists
going into office, it seems so.

Speaker 3 (22:42):
I know that we've had a long week.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
As Comy made his court appearance as of eleven forty
nine on Friday morning.

Speaker 3 (22:48):
When we record this for Saturdays broadcasts.

Speaker 4 (22:50):
Are we expecting him in court?

Speaker 2 (22:52):
He's supposed to turn himself in I don't really understand. Thankfully,
I am woefully ignorant of the defendant process. I'm never
going through that. His arraignment is not until October, but
I know that he very defiant in his video. You're
not going to come down here and flash a couple
of badges and make me nervous some will. You live
in a world with tyrants, and those tyrants have to

(23:13):
be stopped. Who's going to do it? You? You, Nash,
I have a greater loyalty. You may have read my book,
Jim call me told you I have a greater loyalty.
We just didn't know it was to the Democrat Party.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
You know.

Speaker 4 (23:25):
Speaking of books, Peter Navarro has a book out called
I Went to Jail So you won't have to, and
he kind of talks about everything that happened in there.
But you know, Peter Navarro was roughly seventy years old
when he was arrested on bogus charges. And you know,
like he said, if you had simply called me and
said you'd like me to report, I would have happily turned.

(23:49):
I'm a law abiding citizen. Even when the law is
being used against me, I'll still abide by the law. Instead,
Peter Navarro was dragged out of his home and handcuffs
and leg shackles to publicly humiliate him to his neighbors.
They made sure they did it so everybody could see it.
They called the news that come and see Peter Navarro.
Get he's gonna be cuffed and stuffed. Why don't they

(24:11):
do that to mister Komy remember what's his name? Done
in Florida? And he was next door neighbors with Ocho Cinco,
and and Ocho Cinco is like, wait a minute, they're
doing that.

Speaker 3 (24:20):
That's my man.

Speaker 4 (24:21):
Roger is my man, what are you talking about?

Speaker 2 (24:24):
Oh my gosh, my gosh. As we wrap up this week,
a couple of things that we've learned. Number one, Ice
is a slave patrol. We learned that from Jasmine Crockett.

Speaker 4 (24:34):
You know, she is so arrogant in her ignorance, and
that's that is a combination that can be deadly. And
when she's talking about Ice, anyone who knows anything about
American history knows that our police departments were formed as
slave patrols. How ignorant are you? I mean, you'd like

(24:54):
to talk about the non melanated folks here? The non
mellenated folks all came from Europe. The melon in Europe
have had police forces since like the thirteen hundreds. Do
you think that the people forgot about police forces when
they got here and then they said, oh, maybe we
ought to start one to keep the slaves in line.
I posted a video, or I reposted her video. I
should say she posted this on her YouTube page eleven

(25:17):
days ago. That very quote that you played a clip of.
That's all part of an interview with MSNBC that she
put on her YouTube account and entitled it, I think
that excuse me, that ICE is the modern day slave
patrols and Trump wants more of them. That's what she
called it. Eleven days excuse me ten days later or no,

(25:38):
malways be nine days later. Nine days later, an ICE
attention facility in her district is shot and people are killed.
And then she has the audacity to not only dial
down the rhetoric. She's not going to dial down the rhetoric.
She went and stood in front of that ICE attention facility.
And who did she blame for it? Certainly not herself,
certainly not the rhetoric of the left. She didn't even

(26:01):
blame the shooter He's not to be blamed, she said.
She blamed it on the This is unbelievable. She blames
it on the press release put out by Christin Nome
after the shooting. The shooting was caused by the press
release after the shooting because Christin Nome didn't first address
the names of the people's shot. That's the problem. Today.

(26:22):
I've got a big problem. We all have a big
problem because Christy Nome is a coward.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
Well, and as you look at the fact that Donald
Trump's lawsuit that he is going to launch it again
against ABC after the first amendment dust up we had
where he apparently went back and reinstated it. So in fact,
Jimmy Chimical would go back.

Speaker 3 (26:39):
On the air.

Speaker 2 (26:39):
Thank you, mister President for doing that. That argument's being
backed up by certainly by MSNBC, because even after we
saw the picture of the bullets with the casings that
were at anti Ice, the best they would do is
say we have a hint as to what may have
been the motivation of the shooter. The Department of Justice
does not have any reason to believe that this was

(27:00):
in the Anti Ice shooter.

Speaker 4 (27:02):
Do we know why the guy who stabbed himself in
the neck. Would append this week shot at Donald Trump
or was trying to kill him? Do we still figure
that one out yet?

Speaker 3 (27:09):
Either after he was felt guilty.

Speaker 4 (27:11):
We don't know. Yeah, we don't know yet. I mean,
don't jump to conclusions. I mean, why would you jump
to conclusions when this guy wrote, you know, on the
bullets anti ice, when he left a note behind it
said I'm the only one and the reason I'm doing
it is because the people who collect ICE paychecks need
to know that they are collecting dirty blood money. I

(27:31):
don't know what his motivation could have been, though.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
Now I will give an NBC News full credit. Once
that information was released, then they did actually report it,
and then they went back to the First Amendment argument
with Jimmy Kimmel and how Donald Trump is an authoritarian.

Speaker 4 (27:45):
Yeah, I mean Donald Trump is the worst authoritarian. This
guy fails at every level of being an authoritarian. I mean,
he fired Colbert and yet Colbert is going to be
on the air till next summer. That is a that
what kind of authoritarian does that? Well, then you fired
Kimmel and Kimmel's aren't the air in less than a week?

Speaker 2 (28:01):
And what do you say about Jimmy Fallon, that's coming soon.
He's coming SAXT And to today, after call Me, I
guess he was already made his appearance wherever he's gonna
be turning himself in today. What did Donald Trump come
out and say? There's more to come. So just as
you're seeing the late night comedians fall to the authoritarian,

(28:21):
now you're going to see more members of the DOJ
and the Intelligence Committee and the Biden administration fall after
Call Me has now been the first, There'll be many
more coming. The Authoritarian's not going to stop his overreach.

Speaker 4 (28:34):
Look, sometimes I have to salute Donald Trump for being
consistent in the way he speaks. He doesn't change his
tone or tune in front of anybody. Sure I wish
he would. I wish that Donald Trump wouldn't say these
things publicly because they're gonna get done behind the scenes.
Sure you don't need to announce it and then give

(28:56):
the left an opportunity to say, oh my god, then
he called this shot. Yes, they're going to be arrested
because they violated the law. That's why they're going to
be arrested, not because Donald Trump asked them to. I mean,
I'm looking at these investors, and I don't blame the
investors down at Disney. The investors at Disney are considering
a class action lawsuit against Disney for the one less

(29:19):
than one week suspension of Jimmy Kimmel because they saw
in the press, very high ranking, distinguished thought leaders in
this country say that Disney was responding to pressure from
the president. And if you did that and then took
our financial earnings and put them in peril, we want
to be compensated for that.

Speaker 3 (29:39):
So good point.

Speaker 4 (29:41):
I mean, you've got the fact that I called them
thought leaders were supposed to be ironic.

Speaker 3 (29:46):
The people on.

Speaker 4 (29:46):
These are these are yeah, we have we are filled
with lunacy on the left right now and it's tragic
what's happening to America. And they will. And you saw
Chris Murphy's interview on Thursday with Morning Joe when confronted
with the fact that we've had over twenty individuals now
arrested after violent acts against ice in just the last

(30:09):
couple of months, is it time to dial down the
rhetoric now? And his answer, Chris Burfy was the president
and the Vice president were given ample time to dial
down the rhetoric since the murder of Charlie Kirk, and
they refuse to do so, so they continue to ramp
up this violence.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
And because we're hearing these words, you're hearing it from
the people in the street. You're not hearing it from
the local Democrat politicians. Although Hillary Clinton herself said it
this week, this is the only response they could possibly have.
They have to stop the authoritarian. Well, they have to
call out authoritarian. Yes, you have to fight back against

(30:46):
the slave patrols.

Speaker 4 (30:47):
Yes, I agree. I mean again, I was talking about
this earlier. The inside the twisted, sick, perverted minds of
these people attacking Ice. In their minds, they actually believe
that they're patriots. They're victims, is what they really are.
But they believe I am willing to make a sacrifice
so that America can stand. I don't want. I don't

(31:08):
want future generations to lose democracy. I don't want future
generations to be subject to authoritarian regimes.

Speaker 3 (31:13):
I don't want.

Speaker 4 (31:15):
These are all things that you and I and they
would agree with. The difference is that we're not heading
towards authoritarianism. We're not heading towards this crazy maybe in
New York City might be, but you're not heading towards
it federally.

Speaker 3 (31:26):
I get it.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
I understand what Jasmine Crockett was talking about with another
quote that we haven't used yet in this segment when
she says, just because you commit a crime doesn't mean
you're a criminal. If you believe because Chris Murphy, Hillary
Clinton and other Democrats have told you that ICE is
actually slave patrols, by shooting, you're a freedom fighter. Now

(31:50):
I understand.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
I get it.

Speaker 2 (31:52):
Speaking of ICE, I think I have an idea on
a new ICE detention center location here in South Carolina.
We'll talk about that next.

Speaker 1 (32:00):
The Jonathan and Kelly Show.

Speaker 3 (32:03):
Jonathan rush He said, our proposals ridiculous and radical.

Speaker 1 (32:06):
Well, they're not radical at all, Kelly Nash.

Speaker 5 (32:09):
They will not fund law enforcement, they will not fund
the military, they will not fund public safety, and that
they get free healthcare, free legal aliens. We will see
if there's enough Democrat senators who are dumb enough to
follow Chuck Schumer off the edge of that cliff.

Speaker 2 (32:21):
The Jonathan and Kelly Show and without the laboring the point,
I think that they'll finally get that deal. Three o'clock
in the morning, September thirtieth. Oh, you think so yeah,
I'm thinking they will. We'll find out next week. As
the Great Debate rages over the weekend, more information about
that will be coming out, slowly but surely. And we're
going to start getting a head count here somewhere.

Speaker 4 (32:40):
I just heard we're gonna have Ralph Norman on the
show Tuesday morning. Oh good, So perhaps he'll have some
insights for us.

Speaker 3 (32:47):
Excellent.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
All right, now, hello, and we got to wrap it
up here. It's always the shortest hour of the week.
This is Jonathan Rush. Here's Kelly Nash. Thank you for
being here. All eyes on the sky as we get
ready for game COG football and the best game cut
coverage starts. Rain or shine, it don't matter, hail, high wind, hurricanes.
Christopher Thompson the bee here strapped to a microphone if
need be, so it didn't blow away in the wind.

Speaker 4 (33:10):
Yeah, I mean, as we record this on Friday morning,
just hoping and praying that it's a good night.

Speaker 2 (33:18):
Now, there was one other article we wanted to touch
on of this program. Animal research money flows into South
Carolina despite federal agency's promises to cut back on testing.
Now we've read several things about Monkey Island. We're not
going to talk about the escape monkeys. They had a
good time. All of them got back into our knowledge.
I think we lost too. I'm not sure, and we
say we lost too. If you happen to work for

(33:39):
or you are an investory in I don't even know
if it's a public company Alpha Genesis. These monkeys are
quite expensive by the time you get through with the
husband try, as they call it. That's the breeding part
of the monkeys. That's one thing that Peter doesn't like.

Speaker 4 (33:52):
Man, we do it for free, but the monkeys charge.
It's a lot of money for these monkeys, about ten
thousand dollars per monkey.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
Hey, maybe beef cattle, he listened. Instead of beef cattle,
we should be raising damn monkeys a little more expensive
on the fencing.

Speaker 4 (34:08):
This is a perfect example of no matter what Trump
and I'll just say and or the Republicans do, the
left is going to be upset. And now I'm throwing
in Nancy Mace on the left as well here because
Nancy Mace is upset as well. She wants the closure
of Monkey Island. She doesn't like it. She's apparently vehemently

(34:29):
opposed to any kind of animal testing. It sounds don't
really know all of her reasons, but she wants Monkey
Island closed.

Speaker 3 (34:36):
Now.

Speaker 4 (34:37):
At the beginning of the year, there were several statements
made that the NIH and that the Health and Human Services,
through Robert F. Kennedy, we're going to dramatically cut back
on animal testing, and that caused a bunch of responses
from the left saying that at that time they were

(35:00):
positioning it as they don't like science, they're not going
to fund research, they are reckless with human lives. Okay,
but you asked us to cut back on the animal testing,
and they said that they wanted to do it. Now,
why are we still getting ten million dollars down at

(35:21):
Monkey Island? Now? They're upset about that, and Nancy Mace.

Speaker 3 (35:25):
Is one of them.

Speaker 2 (35:26):
Well, and one of the arguments, obviously, is the fact
that animal testing and we get it with a makeup
and all that stuff, and you know some of the
testing that was done previous to more of a spotlight
and look, I give big ups to Peda. There were
some animal testing going on that was cruel and unusual,
and I got it. But when you got one of
the projects going on, it's utilized here in the article
of ninety nine monkeys at the cost of about ten

(35:46):
thousand dollars each bought from a South Carolina prominate for
him we call affectionately Monkey Island. Now this will be
used at a new kidney research study at the University
of Pittsburgh that involves doing plants transplants some monkeys, and
it does euthanize them. They studies conclusion so they can
study the monkey after the procedures. So there are reasons

(36:09):
why I think there's still legitimate concern or reasons why
we should continue with some animal testing so that we
can protect humans. That's why this was initiated to begin with.
And I think that we've gone through all of the arguments,
or I would hope that we had, so that we're
now utilizing it only for must have research.

Speaker 4 (36:26):
I'll point out that the left continually tries to degrade man,
meaning human beings, not just the males of the species.
They continually try to degrade man to the level of animals.
That we're all equal according to them, that a monkey
is of no more value than you. And yet that's
not what God says. God says that we are made

(36:49):
in His image and the animals are not and so
you know when you try to degrade us and put
us on the same plane as a chimp. By the way,
how insulting to the chimps even evolution? Why did they
why did they not continue?

Speaker 3 (37:04):
Here's another rage old argument.

Speaker 4 (37:05):
What a dis I mean, are you insulting the chips?

Speaker 1 (37:08):
Or are they just really that lazy?

Speaker 3 (37:09):
Did they just rebel against it?

Speaker 4 (37:11):
They were watching one of their classmates, one of their pals,
growing up, and he's like, I don't think I'm gonna
swing in the trees anymore. I'm gonna learn language and
I'm gonna build cities.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
Maybe Nancy Mace wants to shut it down because she
wants to take the old Monkey Island and turn it
into an ice detention center. Now there's something I hadn't
considered until just moments ago. So I haven't fully vetted
that thought process.

Speaker 4 (37:29):
She has not. Now, I again, I didn't read the
the language that she used, but apparently it says here
that she did insert language into a house appropriations bill
demanding that ni H at least explain their continued use
of the animals. Look, she must be an animal lover.

(37:51):
That's good, and that's fine.

Speaker 3 (37:52):
And I was looking it up. Just think about a
week ago I looked it up.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
I know it's not far from Paris Island, where the
Marines have their training camp. And you know, for a
long time there was no way to really get Ondfusky.
You now look at the development of du Fusky. Maybe
this is an opportunity for us to make extra property
tax if we develop into some kind of real estate venture. Look,
there could be some upside here State of South Carolina.

(38:15):
If the monkeys go bye bye.

Speaker 4 (38:16):
I'm just going to point out again that according to
the university, it was at Pittsburgh that they are doing
what they believe to be life saving work on kidneys.
So if you're telling me that we have to lose
whatever amount of monkeys, one hundred thousand monkeys to save
one person with a kidney problem, that's a trade I'm
more than willing to make.

Speaker 3 (38:37):
Well, that argument's going to continue and we'll see what
hangs in the balance here. It could be an opportunity
for real estate investors.

Speaker 2 (38:44):
On what used to be Monkey Island, and I think
I would I think i'd continue to call it Monkey Island.
Everybody knows about it. Where do you live. I just
bought a place out on Monkey Island. Oh you got
you down on the coast. Oh you're a Monkey Island,
and I.

Speaker 4 (38:58):
Would be selling chunky Monkey ice cream by the gallon.

Speaker 3 (39:02):
Hey, don't forget.

Speaker 2 (39:03):
The best game cut coverage begins today at four o'clock.
Kickoff at seven is it?

Speaker 4 (39:08):
No, we'll kick off seven forty five.

Speaker 3 (39:10):
Oh we're back to seven forty five again.

Speaker 4 (39:13):
Yeah, so that means that he'll start it at four
to thirty.

Speaker 3 (39:15):
Four to thirty.

Speaker 2 (39:15):
You get an extra fifteen minutes. The best game cut
coverage that begins today at four point thirty.

Speaker 3 (39:19):
With Christopher Thompson.

Speaker 2 (39:20):
Have yourself a wet Saturday, South Carolina. It's over.

Speaker 4 (39:32):
I wish that all of you will come back again
next week.

Speaker 1 (39:34):
Can you come back next week? I'll be back same
time next week. Well, so on pile, we'll be back
next week.

Speaker 2 (39:41):
That's what you bring it to.

Speaker 3 (39:42):
You gotta come back next week.
