Our top story this hour.
Speaker 7 (01:45):
Look forward to these debates. I think it's very important
that we have them. I hope she agrees to them.
Speaker 5 (01:50):
Donald trumpet mar A Lago challenging Kamala Harris for three
debates on September fourth, the tenth, the twenty fifth, reminding
everyone at that news conference, but a bad candidate she was.
Speaker 6 (02:02):
In twenty nineteen.
Speaker 7 (02:04):
They just picked a person that was the first out
she was the first loser.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Okay, so we call her the first loser.
Speaker 7 (02:10):
She was the first loser during the Democrat primary system.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
She was the first one to quit, and she quit.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
Harris has agreed to only one of these debates. On
her very friendly ABC September tenth, Trump Acorse spoke for
more than an hour two reporters and took questions from them.
Harris finally did speak to reporters after the Trump news conference,
but she still hasn't done a one on one interview.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
That talked to my team.
Speaker 8 (02:37):
I want us to get an interview set up by
the end of the month.
Speaker 6 (02:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:41):
In passing, Harris was in Detroit. Harris's campaign has changed
the bio meantime of the running mate, Tim Waltz because
of the stolen valor scandal. It used to Rey that
he was a retired command sergeant major. Now it says
he served as a command sergeant major. Actually he left
the National Guard before fulfill the requirements of that increase
(03:02):
to command and is paid retirement at the lower rank.
It is now five three. Don't believe the Harris media hype.
New polling from res Musen shows that Trump is leading
Harris by five points among likely voters.
Speaker 6 (03:17):
Voter fraud alert here too.
Speaker 5 (03:19):
Phantom votes that's ballots for people not actually there in
swing states could impact the race negatively against Trump. RNC
Committee woman Debbie Georgiadis says, this is a major concern.
Speaker 9 (03:34):
But it may just be people who are registered and
have never voted, and so whoever is manipulating is realized
that this voter isn't going to vote. But the evidence
that this phenomenon is occurring and has been occurring in
every state and yet it has the capacity to change
the outcome of elections.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
She says.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
The solution would be described the voter rolls individually.
Speaker 6 (03:52):
Every state must do it.
Speaker 5 (03:54):
Leave elections with accountable local officials instead of these big
secretaries state who can be well, they can be compromise.
Recruiting poll workers and election judges, However, to keep it
local always a struggle, and even more so now.
Speaker 10 (04:14):
So what might be keeping volunteers away from these critical positions.
Speaker 11 (04:17):
I think a lot of people primarily think that someone
else is going to take care of its poll watching
or working at the polls on election day.
Speaker 10 (04:25):
Dope election worker Felicia Cravens told KTRH they need all
the help they can get this election cycle.
Speaker 11 (04:30):
People have to believe in the integrity of the election,
and as many volunteers as we can get helps boost
that confidence in the results.
Speaker 10 (04:40):
Craven says, the more people that are watching the election,
the more secure and trustworthy the results will be. Ethan

Galveson County won a major redistricting case last week in
the US Fifth Circuit. Judge Mark Henry says, this is
finally going to stop the Democrat weaponization of the Voting
Rights Act.
Speaker 12 (05:02):
The win is for the Constitution and the rule of law.
For forty years, we've had this legal fiction called coalition districts,
which doesn't appear anywhere in the Building Rights Act, but
it got created out of thin air and used to
benefit only Democrats.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
The Court ruled to eliminate the drawing of these so
called minority coalition districts, and the federal ruling now sets
president for everything from legislative to congressional elections their districts.
Look for the Supreme Court to ultimately be called the way.
In fireworks at a Harris County Commissioner's Court meeting, yesterday
when Judge Lena Hidalgo just lost it with Commissioners Adrian
(05:38):
Garcia and Tom Ramsey while approving a simple vote.

minors have been released to sponsors in Texas since October.
Speaker 15 (06:27):
You look at the immigration side of it, but then
you look at the the humanity side of it with
these kids that are that are being used as pawns
in this game.
Speaker 14 (06:33):
Chris Carbrera is Vice president of the National Border Patrol
Council and says the whole process is a nightmare.
Speaker 15 (06:39):

just it's not right.

Ryer on News Radio seven forty KTRH.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
This is Houston's Morning News with Jimmy Parent and Sheriff Fryer.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
All right, in a good morning to you. It is
eight minutes after five o'clock. It is a Friday. It's
the ninth morning of the eighth month in the Year
of Our Lord, twenty twenty four. And how about it.
Kamala Harris finally spoke to the media. It's still not
a break in the eighteen days in counting. You know,
tally that has been kept. As far as a press conference,
(08:56):
she has not held a formal, formal press conference where
all of the press he's invited to gather and grill her.
President Trump held one of those yesterday. How about that?
What a stunning development that was for those who haven't
seen one before. The President invited all members of the
press who are credentialed to his mar Lago home to
ask him anything and everything about the race, about the
(09:19):
state of the country, about future plans, about his platform,
about all of it. That's what a press conference looks like.
All Kamala did was finally come down the stairway of
Air Force two and talked to a few reporters on
the ground there, saying that she is not going to
accept debates with Donald Trump, except the one that Trump
had never even scheduled with her, the September tenth debate
(09:42):
that he had scheduled with Joe Biden. And she said
the rest of it, I don't even know. I don't know,
But she promised she's going to have an interview, an
actual sit down, question and answer interview sometime before the
end of the month. Now, if today was August twenty seventh,
I I say, oh, okay, Well, she's obviously got some
plans here. Today's August ninth. She's got a long time
(10:05):
between now and the end of the month, and she's
promising us, promising, well, weave for see how I answer
questions at some point before now in the next twenty
one days.
Speaker 18 (10:15):
An audience into an interview, an audience with the quean.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Yeah right, that's kind of how she carries herself, doesn't she.
It's really quite a remarkable thing. And the best part
of the newscast you just heard from shera at least
the one that I heard Sarah was Trump up by
five according to Rasmussen. We'll talk more about what that
means later on, but Trumps is a good thing, all right,
five to ten, Let's do trafficking whether now I'm Mike dude.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
All right, let's get Let's talk about a little roadwork,
because we've got I don't want to say quiet freeways.
We never ever say quiet on the radio when we're
talking about freeways.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
That's like really bad luck. But let's talk about some
roadwork coming up.
Speaker 4 (10:52):
While things aren't just nuts and north Sam of course
both ways show Imperial Valley all Dean Westville both ways.
You got a left line missing. That's just a normal
deal that is on pretty much for the rest of
the year. I took a little field trip last night
Southwest Freeway to understand those lane shifts we've done from
University to Grand Parkway.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
This is southbound.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
It's basically they're working on the Brezis River Bridge. They're
redoing completely the one on the feeder road, and then
the main lanes they're doing some kind of lane shift.
Their two right lanes are blocked, but they're using barrels,
which tells me that they're kind of reserving the right
to switch this up over the weekends. We're just going
to have to keep a really close look on it.
For now, it's not causing any problems. And East Sam
(11:35):
from Generation Parkway to west Lake Houston Parkway both ways,
they've taken out two left lanes. What we've done is
we're identifying the right shoulder as a right lane, but
it's right there next to the wall of death, so
it's a little tight only in serious drivetime.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
Is this a problem for now, but it's going to
be there for a while.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
You know what, We've got three more weeks of toll
bridge stuck at southbound, then we'll have some extra lanes. Terry,
I saw something about a heat domed as is that
like a hurricane show? By any chance, I'm in the
classic elite GMC traffic center.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
All right, Terry Smith, that the weather channel is in
with the easiest job in the world today, May choir.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Excuse me?
Speaker 18 (12:13):
Yes, definitely one of the easier jobs with this pattern.
And yes, Sky Mike heat dome is actually kind of
our hurricane repellent to a certain extent.
Speaker 6 (12:24):
Yeah, Mike, with the wind, so we may.
Speaker 18 (12:27):
Get a stray show or thunderstorm to develop today. I'm
not expecting a whole lot of rain. I'm expecting the
heat to continue. That's not going to change. Upper nineties
to around one oh two. Heat advisory still in effect
because those heat advisories will be at or the heat
and disease will be at one o eight or hotter.
But there's a twenty percent chance of rain. This is
(12:48):
a little nice change of pace. Most of us won't
see anything dry over the weekend. Upper nineties to one
oh two. We'll start to get a little bit of
rain Monday and Tuesday, and our temperatures sit down for
this one mid to upper nineties Monday and Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Ooh nice and comfortable. All right, thank you, Terry. Right
now eighty four at your official severe weather station is
radio some forty k terage.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
It's Houston's Morning News, brought to you Biden, US South
Windows Solutions. Now back to Jimmy and Scherah with the
info you need to take on the day.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Okay, five to eighteen. You know, SHERA. One of our
lead headlines yesterday morning was, you know, the the gaslighting
that the media is trying to do to convince us
that Kamala Harris has gone from you know, it's more
than just the you know, low thirties approval rate. She
was lower than Joe Biden, which is bizarre because he
was like the lowest ever as a president, but she
was lower than him. It's more than that. There's a
(13:41):
separate poll, and I wish I could find it right now.
It's not a poll, it's a measure a vice presidential popularity,
and literally throughout her time. I'll give you an example.
The average of vice presidential popularity is like next to nothing.
In other words, people don't care one way or there.
Maybe play us one points minus one point something like that.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
It's one of these plus or minus polls. It's how
many approve and how many disapprove. It's like and dislike
I believe.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Yeah, so like Pence was always at like plus one
or maybe minus one depending on the time and things
like that. Kamala Harris as vice president under the Biden
administration was that minus seventeen. Context is really important there,
that's exactly how unpopular she was. Then there's the traditional
approval ratings thirty plus percent. Now we're supposed to believe
(14:30):
that in less than two weeks she went from not
having won a single primary vote to being the nominee
and beating Donald Trump. That gas lighting story that you
did yesterday during the newscast was so important, especially today
when we look and we see what Ras Mischin shows.
It's Trump plus five.
Speaker 5 (14:46):
Yeah, however, CNBC is Trump plus two. So if they
can get it within two points, well then everyone will
believe what another eighty one million votes this time for Kamala.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Yep, then the the rig is potentially up. Instead of
the jig is up, the rig rig is up. And
that's why Trump has constantly said the selection needs to
be too big to rig or they will put that
and you.
Speaker 5 (15:08):
Can't stay at home. You have to go vote, no question,
you have to be out.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
We got a lot of things share. Let's get to
traffic and share. I want to share a few things
for people to understand exactly what the comparison looks like.
Speaker 4 (15:20):

(16:31):
of next work week, we're gonna see upper nineties to
low one hundred's only a twenty percent chance of rain

From the Sugarland area, Javi Airport area.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
You're reliable forecast next on the ten on seven forty KTRH.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Yeah, So I've got some numbers here share that I
wanted to share. Just when you talk about you got
to get people to the poles and you got to
get them to vote in one hundredercent right, and it
shouldn't be that difficult. The convincing shouldn't be that difficult.
Because here's what we're looking at, the Biden Harris and
we have to make sure we call it the Biden
Harris record now because she was the vice president and
she is talking on her campaign stumps speeches right now
(17:51):
about how she is going to do ABC DN E
and what she has had no impact on any of
those things while being the vice president. Oh coordinated coordinated
effort with Joe Biden to make these things happen with
respect to inflation, and so forth, but she says, when
I take over, I'm going to do all of these
things that was that were not done during the Biden administration.
(18:12):
So the side by side records here matter. And this
was as of July twelve, so it's about a month old,
so give it to a little room here. But inflation
year over year under Trump was one point eight nine
percent year over year. With Biden, it has been five
point two eight percent inflation cumulative in the four years
of Trump, seven point eight percent increase in under Biden,
(18:34):
nineteen point two percent increase. Average gas prices dropped under
Trump to by five point four percent, They have increased
under Biden by forty six point six percent. Thirty year
mortgage rates were thirty four percent lower when Trump was
president for four years. They are one hundred and thirty
two percent higher in the near four years of Biden.
(18:58):
Harris average costs was eleven percent higher under Trump, twenty
one percent higher under Biden. Harris Nasdak composite plus one
thirty eight percent under Trump, plus thirty nine percent under Biden.
Harris grocery prices plus six point five percent when Trump
was president, twenty point nine percent higher under Biden. Harris, Bidenomics, Camolinomics,
(19:22):
whatever you want to call it. Electricity prices were up
four point two percent and Trump's four years twenty nine
point six percent higher under Biden Harris. And then how
about paying for all of these things. Real hourly wages
in four years of Donald Trump, and this includes the
COVID year hourly wages plus six point eight percent since
(19:45):
Biden Harris took over, real hourly wages are down to
point two percent. So that's a net nine percent difference
between hourly wages between Trump and Biden. So the idea
that they can run on any with respect to accomplishments
is ludicrous. They have no accomplishments to run on whatsoever.
The only thing they can do is try to continue
(20:08):
to play Orange Man Bad and VP weird. That's what
they're doing, Orange Man Bad, VEEP, JD Vance weird. They
have nothing else to run on.
Speaker 6 (20:16):
Share Well, they make her the prom queen.
Speaker 5 (20:19):
I mean, she's got all Hollywood and network TV media
and everyone else making her look like this really jazzy,
sexy brat child.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
And now she's got this bonami, you know, big blistery.
Oh wow.
Speaker 5 (20:32):
He's a great guy who happens to believe that there's
no guarantee of free speech for misinformation or hate speech.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Yeah, who is a straight up chi Coom sympathizer. He
is an absolute Chinese tool. He has been to China
thirty times in the last twenty years. He speaks openly
about his fondness for China, Communist China. He's the perfect
match for communist Kamala. All right, five, you have to
(21:01):
tell me about Bratt by the way sometime. I still
don't understand what that means. Five twenty six. Let's see
if we can understand the markets a Bloomberg Business. Good morning, Cordy,

Shara, the numbers don't lie.
Speaker 16 (24:35):
There are fewer Americans working today then there were just
before the pandemic. All of the job growth that we've seen,
millions worth, has all gone to foreign born workers.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
That's economist E. J. And Toni.
Speaker 25 (24:47):
Over the last year, one point two million native born
Americans have lost their jobs, while foreign born workers have
increased one point three million.
Speaker 16 (24:58):
This is one of the reasons, by the way that
Americans are responding so negatively in polling about the economy.
They're not the ones getting the jobs.

ninety three percent of all wealth amassed since this nation
was founded. Maya McGinnis with a Committee for a Responsible Budget.
As our leaders have tiptoed around this crushing debt for years.
Speaker 26 (25:38):
Unless a president creates a mandate for the importance of
addressing this issue and telling the truth to voters, we're
going to have to make some hard choices. It becomes
very difficult to address those things when they are president.
The next president cannot escape this issue.
Speaker 5 (25:52):
Report estimates the total amount of federal debt, liabilities and
unfunded obligations has now reached Brace yourselves. Forty two trillion dollars.
Five thirty four is our time. The leftist green new

(26:13):
that he'll have to borrow to pay before he leaves
office the.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
End of the day.
Speaker 27 (26:19):
This is all rooted in the the IRA, the so
called Inflation Reduction Act, which put forth all of that,
authorized all of the money, and appropriated all of the
money that he's doing.
Speaker 28 (26:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 29 (26:55):
It's just hot in Texas in summertime. And if we
don't understand this as as makers and energy providers, and
we're ever going to get caught.
Speaker 5 (27:04):

He says Ercott's issues are because of population growth, exponential
demand for data centers and AI. They really soak up

fuel US. It's now five point thirty five. Donald Trump
has done more than ten interviews news conferences since Joe
Biden left office, taking questions at Mar A Lago yesterday
for more than an hour, blasting Democrats for removing Joe
Biden the president the way they did.
Speaker 7 (27:42):
I'm no Biden fan, but I'll tell you what from
a constitutional standpoint, from any standpoint you look at, they
took the presidency away and people were saying.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
He lost after the debate he couldn't win.
Speaker 7 (27:52):
Well, I don't know that that's true necessarily, but whether
he could win or he couldn't win, he had the
right to run.
Speaker 5 (27:58):
Trump also announced three debates in September, but Kamala Harris,
who finally talked to reporters for less than two minutes,
has only agreed to one.
Speaker 6 (28:07):
We'll have more in that. At six a m.
Speaker 5 (28:09):
Harris was in Detroit in passing and Joe Biden at
the White House with Baseball's Texas Rangers there ten months
after they won the World Series.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
He was doing Biden things.
Speaker 3 (28:21):
Oh, hell, ma's haberdashers. I like your dread man. I'll
tell you pretty good.
Speaker 5 (28:27):
David don't know who his haberdasher is. I like his
dress man, is what he said. Rybart reports that Harris'
running mate Tim wall says seven suspicious connections to communists
China after one trip there. Walltz quoted is saying that
his host gave him quote more gifts than I could
bring home. Minnesota governor's military careers still under the microscope
(28:50):
with a scandal of stolen valor.
Speaker 30 (28:53):
Some of his critics are blasting him over accusations that
he retired in two thousand and five to avoid being
deplay to Iraq. The Harris Waltz team did not confirm
when Waltz submitted his retirement papers, they typically take months
to process. The Harris Waltz team corrected Walts's biography on
their campaign website to show that while Waltz served as
(29:13):
a command sergeant major, he retired at the lower rank
of master sergeant.

Speaker 2 (29:56):
KTRH time saving traffic connext on the ten.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
All right, five point thirty eight. Now, I want to
get a couple of things in here if I can,
real quick, because we need to talk and we're not
going to talk presidential politics all morning. But this is
still top of the mind because by I mean, Trump
held a press conference yesterday at mar Lago, and Kamala
finally talked to a couple of reporters for a couple
of seconds outside of Air Force too. President Trump yesterday,
among other things, reminded everybody that Kamala Harris is simply
(30:23):
not very smart. She hasn't done an interview. She can't
do an interview.
Speaker 7 (30:26):
She's barely competent, and she can't do an interview. But
I look forward to the debates because I think we have.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
To set the record straight. Barely competent cannot do an interview.
On Fox, Carolyn Levett, one of Trump's spokespersons, said this
about Kamala.
Speaker 32 (30:41):
Well, it's different because while Joe Biden was incompetent by sinility,
Kamala Harris is incompetent, frankly by stupidity.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
Again, a feeling shared by most anybody who's ever heard
her talk. But according to Anthony Scaramucci, formerly with Team
Trump now a just avowed leftist over on MSNBC, anybody
who says those things is a racist. I just want
to say this.
Speaker 20 (31:04):
He called the Vice president dumb at least four times today,
and that is a sign of his racism.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
She's an incredibly qualified person. Now, would like to know
how listening to this woman talk has anything to do
with the color of her skin. Listen to how she
sounds when she answers questions, and tell me whether or
not stupidity or dumb or whatever is appropriate here or
not here's a question she has asked about the economy.
Speaker 26 (31:32):
Affecting their lives, like the economy and the border, shouldn't
the campaign be pivoting on its messaging.
Speaker 8 (31:41):
So there's no doubt that one of the first issues
that anyone will think of is the issue they think
of when they're at their kitchen table trying to pay
their bills, which is how is the economy treating them?
So there's no question whatsoever that that is an important
issue which we have been in the process of addressing,
and we still need.
Speaker 16 (31:59):
To do more.
Speaker 8 (32:00):
I would not separate that from the issue of what
is at stake in terms of hard democracy, and frankly,
I think most people don't think of it in the
context of democracy as much as freedom. The freedom of
a woman who make decisions about her own body, the
freedom to love who you love openly and with pride,
the freedom to be able to be free from gun violence.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
She was asked specifically about what she and her campaign
and the Biden campaign at the time would do about
the economy, and her answer was that we should have
the freedom to love who we love. And it's racist
to call her stupid. She is stupid. She is the
lowest IQ candidate to come down the line I don't know,
(32:41):
maybe ever, And she proves it every time she opens
her mouth, which has nothing to do with her Indian
or Jamaican heritage.
Speaker 5 (32:49):
Review it and re basically calling reality an issue. Here
it is again, Well, here's how many times she uses
a work I know. That's why I mock it, Molly, I.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
Know, and it's perfect. Let's get Skymike into this conversation,
because Mike, you said you had an answer for me.
I have heard people talk about this being the Kamala
being brat, not a bro, but oh brat?
Speaker 28 (33:13):
What is that?
Speaker 27 (33:14):
You know what?
Speaker 3 (33:14):
It just goes to show you how hip hop.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
It happened and Sheriff Fryer really is because she's keeping up,
you know, she gets down verbally with the young people. Now,
bratt does not mean now there's a new gen z meaning.
It doesn't mean you know, somebody's kidding Walmart. Bratt now
means like you're you're kind of cool, You're confident in
all that brat and resistant oh resistant, okay.
Speaker 6 (33:35):
Yeah, yeah, you're sort of counter.
Speaker 3 (33:37):

Speaker 18 (34:37):
Well, the heat and humidity that's going to continue, there's
no change in that until maybe early next week when
things cool down just a little bit, mainly because it's
the rain.
Speaker 6 (34:47):
Now. We may get a little bit of rain today.
Speaker 18 (34:49):
There's a week front that's made its way into southeast Texas,
so a twenty percent chance of a shower storm.
Speaker 6 (34:54):
That's it, folks. That's hardly any rain.
Speaker 18 (34:57):
Heat advisory still in effect because the temperature or upper
nineties to one oh two and the heat in decks
today easily one o eight or even higher for several hours,
so take it easy. It looks dry Tomorrow and Sunday.
We're still upper nineties to one oh two both days.
Then a little bit of rain Monday and Tuesday will
help to knock the temperatures down. We need to start
(35:17):
going down, and Monday and Tuesday will be in the

Speaker 3 (38:23):
You know, it's a little tough for trying to find,
you know, a new airline to fly if you don't
like what the airline stands for. You know, different than
when you decided not to drink bud Light, for example,
with their controversies. But boil boy, if I'm trying to
avoid a flight, it's going to be a delta flight
that I'm avoiding. Delta is their biggest mistake was they
hired somebody that they gave a title to called chief Diversity, Equity,
(38:46):
Inclusion and Social Impact Officer. As soon as you hire
somebody like that, that person is immediately going to do
what They're going to try to come up with things
to justify their job. They're going to try to come
up with things to justify this salary. So when you
are the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Social Impact Chief Officer,
(39:06):
Kyra Lynn Johnson, what are you gonna do? One of
the things we're gonna do is ban ladies and gentlemen.
Delta Airlines has embraced this whole nonsense. Saying ladies and
gentlemen is simply not inclusive enough. When we make our gatehouse,
I guess they call it announcements ladies and gentlemen. We've
asked ourselves, is that gender inclusive as we want to be?
(39:28):
You know, we're looking at some legacy language that exists.
It's legacy language is a fancy way of saying correct language.
What people are. You're a lady or you're a gentleman,
You're a boy or a girl. At any rate, that
exists in some of our employees' manuals. And getting to
the root of the way you say things. I'm sorry
the way some things are described and saying does that
(39:49):
actually send the message of inclusivity? Use gender neutral language
and pronouns. All Delta employees are told do not use
language that suggests a gener binary. Never mind the fact
that there is a gender binary. There is nothing behind
door number three. There is door number one, and there
is door number two. But Delta says we encourage our
(40:12):
people to use language that is inclusive of everyone as
our global customer base, including a broad range of diversity
in cultural backgrounds, identity, and experiences. And I'm trying to
figure this out. Why does anybody give a flying rip
if you are coming onto an airplane, whether you are
male or a female, whether you're a young or you're old,
(40:32):
whether you're black or you are white, whether you're skinny
or you're fat, it doesn't matter. Aren't you just selling
airline tickets? Why do they have to make sure that
as they come into our gatehouse, we actually know what
to call them to make them I feel comfortable in
what they identify as this is the kind of stuff
And I'm gonna advance to the end of the article here.
(40:53):
That is so frustrating because quote perhaps the greatest challenge
has been normalizing these conversations. So I notice the company
has set an expectation that those conversations are to be normalized.
That means that doesn't mean everyone feels that way. It
doesn't mean that everyone's comfortable having those conversations. But quote
(41:14):
Delta is demonstrating an authentic commitment to being a workplace
where all people can thrive and where we reflect the
rich humanity of the customers and communities we serve across
the globe. And every time you have anything that is
remotely a part of the inclusivity discussion, you are, by
the very nature of it, excluding people who don't want
(41:34):
anything to do with changing biological and grammatical norms. One
person is one person, a one person. It can never
be a vey that is a plural pronoun. They or
there these things telling people that you must if you
want to work here, identify somebody else's charade and play
(41:56):
along with them and call them what they want to
be called, even if it is rat obvious that they
are not that telling them that you don't have the
free speech to use normal, accepted standard language is not
making everyone comfortable. It is making the vast majority of
people who don't believe in playing charades very very uncomfortable.
So just a little word to the wise. You can
(42:18):
fly whatever you want to fly. Thedn't give It doesn't
matter to me one bit. But I will tell you this,
if if Delta became the bud light of the airways,
it wouldn't bother me one bit. Five point fifty six

Speaker 5 (44:02):
Good morning everyone. It is now six poht two on
news radio seven forty KTRH.
Speaker 6 (44:06):
In our top story this hour, I think we have
to set the record straight.
Speaker 5 (44:11):
Donald Trump officially challenging Kamala Harris to a series of
debates before the election to set the record straight. He's
pledged September fourth with Fox, the tenth with ABC, and
the twenty fifth with NBC, and wants to demand answers
for the border crisis that Kamala Harris was supposed to
solve as borders are.
Speaker 7 (44:32):
Why is it that millions of people were allowed to
come into our country from prisons, from jails, from mental
institutions in sant asylums.
Speaker 5 (44:41):
Trump answering questions from reporters for more than an hour
at mar A Lago. Harris finally did speak to reporters
after that news conference. Trump's agreeing to do one of
the debates.
Speaker 28 (44:54):
And looking forard to it and help you sows up.
Speaker 5 (44:58):
The only one she's agreed to do so far is
on the very biased ABC on September tenth. She's blowing
off fox stolen valor scandal of her running mate Tim Wallas,
is forcing a change on that campaign's website. His bio
matched his lifelong claim that he was a retired command
sergeant major.
Speaker 6 (45:19):
Now they've scrubbed that command out of there.
Speaker 5 (45:23):
It says he served as a command sergeant major, he
never really completed the requirements for the rank and was
busted to a lower rank for retirement pay six oh
three is our time. Mainstream media wants us all to
think Kamala is winning the polling says she's not. Even
CNBC has her trailing Trump nationally by two points. So
(45:44):
called phantom voters though in swing states could be enough
to cost Donald Trump the election.
Speaker 6 (45:49):
That's sick.
Speaker 3 (45:51):
It once again brings voter integrity to the forefront.
Speaker 9 (45:54):
Because voter registration records are held at the state level,
and they are held in couters electronic form, they are hackable, changeable.
Speaker 3 (46:03):
To be George Otis, host of America Can We Talk,
says there's evidence that voter roles have been manipulated, and
the solution to the problem is twofold.
Speaker 9 (46:11):
A massive creating of voter roles is the first point,
second and almost more important step is take it away
from the state levels and bring it down to the
local level.
Speaker 3 (46:19):
She says, this issue you can swing an election and
needs to be stopped. Andrey Perard News Radio seven forty KTRH.
Speaker 5 (46:25):
Traditionally difficult for political parties to get volunteers to be
election watchers to keep things on the up and up,
and this cycle you hear it's more important than ever.
Speaker 28 (46:36):
Really.
Speaker 11 (46:36):
The idea is to firm up the election process by
as many people watching as many parts of the election
as possible and making sure that no one is operating
in darkness.
Speaker 5 (46:47):

political affiliation, we ought to have to agree that we
need volunteers to keep elections fair and honest.

Now, you didn't hear much of about it, but Galveson
Quin County won a major redistricting case that could shift
dozens of political seats at all levels of government nationally
and even congressional representation.
Speaker 25 (47:15):
Shara, It's a fight that has been going on for
decades over the Democrat created coalition districts.
Speaker 12 (47:22):
A coalition district is when you don't have enough of
a single minority, then you have to put other minorities
together in order to create a coalition district. But one
of the caveats is they have to be Democrat.
Speaker 25 (47:32):
That's Galveston County Judge Mark Henry, who called it a
huge win after the US Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals
ruled to eliminate the coalition districts.
Speaker 12 (47:43):
Yes, because the states can now go back in redistrict
not only US congressional House seats, but state House and
state Senate seats.
Speaker 25 (47:51):
Twelve US congressional seats total could flip, including five here
in Texas, along with Louisiana and Mississippi.

Speaker 15 (48:54):
A seventeen eighteen year or a seventeen year old, or
you can look at that as a four year old,
a five year old. Most of them are seven to ten.
And that's scary that a seven year old is traveling
by themselves through multiple countries in care of a smuggler.
Speaker 28 (49:06):
I mean, that's just that's not right.

Chris Cabrera, the National Border Patrol Council says it's an

Know all the information in real time and in the now.
Right now, News Radio seven forty KTRH, All right, six eight,
as we continue on this for Friday morning. Thanks for
being with us. Pop France, sitting in for Jimmy and
still trying to figure out what Joe Biden was talking
about yesterday. I think matters a lot.
Speaker 33 (50:45):
Local schools feeding educating children. It matters cultural centers celebrating
Latino history of Latino culture, which everybody ought to start
learning more about.
Speaker 3 (51:02):
Well, like parenthetic.
Speaker 33 (51:03):
You know that twenty eight out of every high school
students is Latino.
Speaker 3 (51:10):
We better start figuring it out. I'm trying, I'm really
trying to figure it out. What What did he just say?
Twenty eight out of every high school students is is Latino.
We better start figuring it out. I don't know what
percentage it is, but twenty eight out of it? Did
he did? He say?
Speaker 33 (51:30):
What I think he said, Martha, twenty eight out of
every high school students is Latino.
Speaker 3 (51:37):
We better start figuring it out. He said this, By
the way, did Joe Biden as he was welcoming the
Texas Rangers to the White House for their you know,
their victory lap if you will, and okay, great, fine,
while he was there, he didn't know why he was there.
I bring this up now not to tap dance on
a man's political grave, because he is already in the
ground politically again.
Speaker 28 (51:59):
But he is.
Speaker 3 (52:00):
Remember this guy who didn't know where he was? He said,
what am I doing again? While he was talking to
the Rangers, and he just said that weird statement, twenty
eight out of every high school students is Latino. We
better start figuring it out. Okay. This is the guy
that literally a month ago was being championed by Kamala
(52:21):
Harris as being the right man to be the next
president of the United States or to continue on as
President of the United States by every Democrat in the country.
Joe Biden was perfectly completely in control of himself in
his faculties, and he is not cognitively slipping, and he
is at the top of his game. He's sharp as attack.
(52:42):
He's doing cartwheels in the hallways in the White House.
He is just the man. Literally a month ago, that's
what we were told. And now well here we have Kamala.
But everybody should remember that they lied to us, to
our faces again and again and again and again about
that guy six to ten now trafficking with it again,
and he is clear that's true. That's what I'm serious.
(53:02):
I'll figure it out, all right.
Speaker 4 (53:03):
Five friends, KGRH listeners the first to know what's happening.
Speaker 3 (53:07):
Now here's Danny from Dayton. Danny from Dayton is on
the Southwest Freeway. Lookout, dude, coming up. You know the
bitching that exhibit.

left hand side two lane.

No ambulance yet, but it don't look good.
Speaker 3 (53:24):
I'm seeing all these flashy lights.

I've got a wreck here on the exit ramp.
Speaker 4 (54:04):
A lot of times we don't pay a whole lot
of pitchs attention to exit ramps, but this one's causing
a smush.
Speaker 3 (54:10):
If you're trying to go up north, I'm seeing the backup. Now.
Speaker 4 (54:13):
If you're on the Katie outbound, let's say, by Denny's
and Ihowt, and you're thinking about getting on that ramp,
think again. Let's go outbound and go to Chimney Rock
Bust to U turn because I'm seeing quite a smush.
We'll zoom that at six point twenty from the Generator
Supercenter dot Com Traffic Center.
Speaker 3 (54:28):
All right, let's zoom over to the weather center now
and see what's happening there. Terry Smith, Hey.
Speaker 18 (54:32):
Good morning, same thing that's been happening much of this week,
including the heat advisory.
Speaker 6 (54:38):
It covers all of our listing area.
Speaker 18 (54:40):
Temperatures are going to be like they were yesterday, upper
nineties to over one hundred, but the humidity making it
feel like it's one o eight or even hotter for
a good bit of the day.
Speaker 6 (54:51):
Now, there's one little subtle change.
Speaker 18 (54:53):
We have a twenty percent chance of a thunderstorm, so
somebody just might get like you get some rain today,
Anny rainbow tomorrow and Sunday.
Speaker 6 (55:01):
The temperatures don't change.
Speaker 18 (55:03):
Monday and Tuesday, a little more of an onshore breeze
the afternoon heating. There's a slight chance of a thunderstorm
Monday and a few showers and storms Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (55:13):
All right, thank you, Terry. And right now we have
eighty three degrees and clear skies at your official severe
weather station, News Radio seven forty ktr H.
Speaker 2 (55:20):
You're starting your day, right with Houston's Morning News, brought
to you by New South Windows Solutions.
Speaker 3 (55:27):
Okay, it is six nineteen. Did you know we have
missed all of these wonderful job creation numbers that the
Biden Harris administration has been bragging about. How many of
those jobs are going to foreign born workers, going to
legal and illegal immigrants replacing American workers. We've got new
data on that. Ej Antoni is going to join us
to talk about it right after we check traffic on
(55:49):
weather once again. Here is Skyline.
Speaker 4 (55:51):
All right, I'm going to pitch from the stretch here
at Southwest Freeway at Beach Nut.

Let's see Tammy's flying over there.
Speaker 4 (55:56):
Good she needs that shot. This is southbound Southwest Freeway.
You knew at first khr Rah listeners. I got three
left lines blocked outbound. It looked like a minor hubub
on the maps. No, it is a full blown Who

Speaker 3 (57:33):
The lazy days of summer not around here.
Speaker 23 (57:36):
A lot can happen, Deep Bob, this some crazy on
news radio seven KTRH.
Speaker 3 (57:43):
Okay six pointy one. Now so new data released by
the US Bureau of Labor Statistics showing that the Biden
Harris regime continues to replace native born American workers with
foreign born American workers immigrant labor, legal or illegal, getting
one point three million jobs while American job losses have
hit one point two million. EJ. And Tony is an
(58:05):
economist with the Heritage Foundation. He's actually quoted in this
article as well. He joins us now on Houston's warning
is EJ. I wonder how many Americans realize when they
hear about all of these great job creations, that there
is a job lost by an American for every one
of these ones is created for a foreigner.
Speaker 16 (58:21):
Well, I think that's part of the reason why the
polling on the economy today is as poor as it is.
You have so many Americans who say that they're dissatisfied
with the economy in part because they're not the ones
who are getting the jobs today.
Speaker 5 (58:34):
Yes, go ahead, share. Sorry I'm hearing EJ. Just fine,
So go ahead, EJ. Sorry that we disrupted you there.
Speaker 3 (58:44):
Oh no, no, that's why.
Speaker 16 (58:45):
I was just making the point that I think a
big reason why there's this disparity between the business headlines
that say the economy is great, We're adding all these jobs,
and why people feel so dissatisfied with the economy is
simply the fact that they're not the ones getting the
job jobs. They're not the ones receiving all the benefits
in the Biden Harris economy.
Speaker 5 (59:04):
Yeah, foreign workers coming in, and there's a big distinction
here between how educated the foreign workers are and how
many of them are actually working, if in terms of illegals,
and how many jobs are basically taking away from American
lower income workers. And that's what Trump keeps talking about,
and everyone just keeps putting him down for it.
Speaker 16 (59:27):
That's right, Sharah. And you know, one of the big
problems today is the fact that we all usually start
out in low skill, low income jobs. We have starter
jobs for a reason. That's the first step, the first
rung on the ladder. Of success for almost every single American.
And if you cut out that first rung on the ladder,
then it basically makes it impossible for people to better
(59:48):
themselves and for people to let's say, save money for
a down payment on a house, or save money for
an education, whatever the case may be.
Speaker 3 (59:56):
Can we talk to EJ about the racial demographics that
are being hit the hardest by this foreign born labor
coming in and taking jobs. President Trump alluded to it
in a speech, and I think even during the debate
in which you talked about black jobs, which of course
means jobs that are predominantly held by black people, and
he's been hit for that, but it really is the
black community that's being hit the hardest by foreign labor
coming in and taking jobs.
Speaker 21 (01:00:19):
That's right.
Speaker 16 (01:00:19):
And frankly, I don't understand why he got so much
criticism for saying black jobs. You know, the same people
who are criticizing him use phrases like black communities and
black churches and black schools, black colleges. I'm not sure
what the issue is then.
Speaker 3 (01:00:32):
With having a with saying black job.
Speaker 16 (01:00:34):
But whatever the case, you know, it is true when
you go through the numbers that typically more blacks than
whites use those starter jobs again as the first rung
on that ladder to success, because they're less likely, for instance,
to go to college, where then you don't graduate and
get a starter job, you get some kind of entry
level you know, college position. But whatever the case. Again,
(01:00:57):
you have communities that have typically lower income are going
to be disproportionately affected by all of the crazy things
going on in the labor market right now, which are
a direct result of Biden Harris policies.
Speaker 5 (01:01:10):
Yeah, and meantime, you got the Congressional Budget Office giving
them cover, saying that this spike and immigration we're seeing,
it's going to reduce the federal deficit by nearly a
trillion dollars because more people means more economic activity.
Speaker 6 (01:01:23):
What people right, and who's getting.
Speaker 16 (01:01:25):
The money exactly, so share Here's how they come up
with those crazy numbers. They count the benefit side and
not the cost side of the equation. So they assume
all these people are going to come here and work,
which isn't true, But then they don't count all of
the costs associated with that. For example, you know, these
people have kids that they put through school, except the
(01:01:45):
school is being paid by taxpayer dollars. That these people
aren't funding they use emergency rooms, and then let's say,
don't pay their er bills. So there are all kinds
of costs associated with people living here that you need
to account for as well, but you don't do that,
and that's how they come up with these crazy numbers.
Speaker 3 (01:02:03):
EJ. Antoni economists with a heritage foundation, laying out the
real numbers and the impact of them on the working Americans. EJ.
Thank you for the time. We appreciate it, my pleasure,
thank you for having me. All right. Yeah, crazy, crazy numbers,
illegal immigrants coming in and taking so many jobs from Americans,
and they are celebrating it in the Biden Harris regime.

Good morning everyone, six point thirty one on News Radio

Speaker 6 (01:05:04):
Our top story this hour.
Speaker 5 (01:05:05):
You're going to feel the pain of inflation this weekend
when you go grocery shopping. A former Trump economic advisor
wants to know why Kamala Harris won't talk about her
plan to lower those prices.
Speaker 24 (01:05:19):
Why can't you do it right now?
Speaker 16 (01:05:20):
Right?
Speaker 24 (01:05:20):
I mean, why can't the Buite administration do it right now?
It just doesn't make sense to me.
Speaker 6 (01:05:24):
She's running for president, you know.
Speaker 5 (01:05:26):
Kevin Hasset on Fox Business, We've got stock market futures
up slightly this morning after the horrible crash earlier this week,
triggered by the July jobs report, which was well below expectations,
and new data shows there is even more to those
jobs numbers over the last year.
Speaker 6 (01:05:44):
While one point two million.
Speaker 5 (01:05:47):
Born Americans native born Americans have lost their jobs, foreign
born workers have increased by one point three million.
Speaker 16 (01:05:56):
A number of native born Americans employed has been plummeted.
It's dound well over a million over the last year.
So all of the job gains on net that we've
had have all gone to foreign born workers.
Speaker 5 (01:06:07):
Yeah, and economists AJ and Tony says it all change
with COVID. On top of that, Biden has increased the
federal debt so much has almost swallowed up all of
America's wealth.
Speaker 34 (01:06:20):
A new analysis of fiscal data shows total federal debts, liabilities,
and unfunded obligations at one hundred and forty two trillion dollars.
That's ninety three percent of all wealth created since America's founding.
Miam Ac Guinnis with a Committee for a Responsible Budget,
tells Fox this should be the biggest issue in the election.
Speaker 26 (01:06:35):
The fiscal situation that whoever becomes president will be facing
is really dire. There are warning lives that we have
to pay attention to right now. When you're spending more
on interest payments than you are on national security, which
is where we are today. If you know you're in trouble,
we are in trouble.
Speaker 34 (01:06:51):
Government's total fiscal burden comes out to about one million
dollars for every US household. Corey Yelson New's Radio seven
forty KTRH, it's.
Speaker 6 (01:06:59):
Six thirty three.
Speaker 5 (01:07:00):
They're not going to do anything about it because Joe Biden,
as a lame duck president, is going to shell out
another four billion dollars in borrowed money for green projects
to his friends on his way out.
Speaker 10 (01:07:13):
It looks like the last six months of Biden's term
will be just like the last three and a half years.
Speaker 3 (01:07:18):
No one should be surprised by this. This has been
what Joe Biden ran on.
Speaker 27 (01:07:21):
It's probably the central political plank of progressive politics right now.
Speaker 10 (01:07:26):
Environmental researcher Jack Spencer told kt H, don't expect anything
productive to come out of this boondoggle.
Speaker 27 (01:07:32):
Whenever you see political leaders of bureaucracts and the interest
arguing that we need to subsidize a specific energy source,
we should know right away that that energy source is
not otherwise viable.
Speaker 10 (01:07:42):
Spencer says, all of this goes back to the Inflation
Reduction Act, and everyone who voted for it bears part
of the blame. Ethan Buchanan News Radio seven forty KTRH.
Speaker 5 (01:07:51):
Meantime, here we are sweltering again. It's August but because
of huge population and business growth, the increasing demands of
quantum computing here, as well as our over reliance on
green energy, Texas once again facing energy shortages.
Speaker 29 (01:08:08):
These rolling brown outs or something to that effect may
be necessary, but it's a shame that in Texas we're
having to deal with this.
Speaker 5 (01:08:16):
At all, Exactly, Caringham with the Texas Energy Alliance telling
KTRH policy makers across Texas seemed to be switching course
to fix the problem, but it's going to take time.
It would help if you had a White House not
trying to kill fossil fuels. Six thirty five is our time.
Donald Trump. He held court at Camara Lago for more
(01:08:37):
than an hour yesterday, taking any and every question from reporters,
unscripted by the way questions, and he went ahead to
reveal the coup against Joe Biden.
Speaker 7 (01:08:48):
I heard, I know exactly because I know a lot
of people on the other side, believe it or not.
And they said, we'll do it the nice way, we'll
do it the hard way. And he said, all right,
So that means they've really taken What they've done is
pretty incredible.
Speaker 5 (01:09:02):
Yeah, they took a president who was going to run
for reelection and said, no, you can't. He challenged Kamala
Harris to three debates in September. She's only accepted one.
Speaker 28 (01:09:12):
Uh huh.
Speaker 5 (01:09:13):
Biden has done more interviews than Harris actually since leaving
the race, and hosted Baseball's Texas Rangers at the White
House with more gaffes.
Speaker 33 (01:09:22):
He's gonna need another finger Obsot put the fifth. We're
ring on his thumb. I mean, I don't know how
you do that.
Speaker 16 (01:09:29):
Man.
Speaker 6 (01:09:30):
We don't know how you do it either, Joe.
Speaker 5 (01:09:34):
We're learning about Harris's running mate, Tim Wallace, and what
we're learning ooh, not so good. Seven eyebrow raising connections
to China. Republicans count continuing to sound this alarm about
the Minnesota governor. They said, do not judge a book
by its cover.
Speaker 3 (01:09:50):
They picked.
Speaker 17 (01:09:50):
I guess this boring guy looks like a grandpa, but
he's super dangerous. His policies are radical. This guy is
to the left of Bernie Sanders, and so is Kamala
Harris according to her voting record.
Speaker 5 (01:10:02):
Missouri Senator Eric Schmidt on Fox not telling you anything
you don't already know about this, but talking politics at
the office, Well, do it at your own risk.
Speaker 14 (01:10:13):
According to a Chartered Management Institute poll, forty four percent
of surveyed managers say a disagreement started at work between
colleagues over politics and.

Anton Gunn is a leadership expert and keynote speaker. He
offers some of his advice when in that kind of situation.
Speaker 35 (01:10:32):
What I tell people is to acknowledge the emotions around
what you're feeling. It's okay to acknowledge those emotions.
Speaker 14 (01:10:38):
Another twenty five percent of managers said the stress level
went up after a political debate. Jared Lewis News Radio

Speaker 3 (01:11:28):
So I've got an answer for Bob France and for
Jimmy Barrett. By the way, good morning if you just
woke up and they're getting your day started with us.
At six point thirty, SHA's lead story there in the
ANWS was inflation. If Kamala is effectively in charge, why
isn't she doing anything about inflation. She keeps saying that
when she takes over as president, when she wins, she's
going to tackle inflation, and she's going to take on
(01:11:50):
the corporations and everybody else that's making your prices go
so high and so forth. So it's kind of interesting
that she's pledging to do that, yet she's not doing
it now. Even though Joe Biden is all intents and
purposes retired, he's still on the job, but he's going
to the beach. He's not really doing anything. So I
think it's worth listening to this. I do apologize, it's
a minute long. I do apologize for the fact that
(01:12:13):
you will you will be dumber after having listened to it.
But this is why we get no action from Kamala
Harris on inflation, because this is what she says when asked,
what are you going to do about inflation? Else are
you going to do to fix this problem with inflation?
Speaker 28 (01:12:29):
Thank you? Well, let's start with this.
Speaker 8 (01:12:35):
Prices have gone up and families and individuals are dealing
with the realities of that bread costs more, that gas
costs more, and we have to understand what that means.
That's about the cost of living going up. That's about
(01:12:57):
having to stress and stretch limited resources. That's about a
source of stress for families that is not only economic,
but is on a daily level, something that is a
heavy weight to carry. So it is something that we
take very seriously, very seriously, and we know from the
history of this issue in the United States that when
(01:13:18):
you see these prices go up, it has a direct
impact on the quality of life for all people in
our country. So it's a big issue.
Speaker 3 (01:13:27):
And that's it. That's it. What are you going to
do about inflation? She spent a minute salad tossing an
answer about how inflation is bad. Inflation makes people hurt,
Inflation affects people it's a serious issue. We take it seriously.
Inflation is bad. Next question, what and yet if we
(01:13:51):
say that she's dumb and that she's incompetent, we are
called them? Want to say the issue.
Speaker 20 (01:13:58):
He called the vice president and dumb at least four
times today, and that is a sign of his racism.
Speaker 3 (01:14:05):
We're racist. We're racist if we acknowledge listening to stupid
things means the person saying stupid things is very likely stupid,
that makes us racist. I just can't six forty traveling

Hey Terry, Hey, there so there's not a lot of
change in the overall weather pattern, though we may get
a thunderstorm.
Speaker 6 (01:15:51):
Or two today.
Speaker 18 (01:15:52):
In part there's a week front that's close enough to
help to kind of destabilize things a little bit twenty
percent chance if it's thunder storm, that's it. Otherwise, Yesterday
is today, and Tomorrow and Sunday just Sunday and hot
upper nineties to around one oh two in the afternoon,
heat in X one eight or higher. If you do
have outdoor plans this weekend, just factor in the heat
(01:16:15):
and humidity and whatever you're doing. We get a little
bit of rain, like a twenty percent chance of a
thunderstorm Monday, and a thirty percent chance of rain Tuesday,
so our temperatures will be in the mid upper nineties
to start off the week.

Come on off to pass the torch. So a new generation.
This race we have an election to win is changing
by the minute. What does What's going to happen? News
Radio seven forty KTRH SO yesterday, one of the biggest
stories that we had and it continues to be this morning,
is the stolen valor of Tim Tim Walls, the vice
presidential candidate for the Democrats. You know, he proclaimed that
(01:18:58):
he was at war, was never at war. He said
he deployed his troops to Iraq. He did not deploy
with his battalion to Iraq. He decided to run from that,
and and that's that's a story, and that's fine. JD. Vance,
his counterpart on the Republican side, has criticized Walls for this,
as have many other veterans, and the left has decided
to attack Vance as a means of defending Walls and
(01:19:21):
his stolen valor. Among them Adam Kinsinger. Adam Kinsinger, of course,
is the Republican who is actually a Democrat, but who
pretends to be a Republican and did so for the
January sixth committee.
Speaker 6 (01:19:32):
So had this Chinese spy lover? Is that what the
one is?
Speaker 3 (01:19:38):
Sorry, thank you, Adam. And he's a Democrat. Kinzinger is
an actual registered Republican. He just acts like a Democrat anyway. JD.
Vance tweeted about Tim Walls. We played the clip many times,
criticizing Tim Walls for stealing valor and literally not doing
what he himself. JD did when he was called to serve,
and let's go to a rock and serve. So Adam
Kinsinger yesterday responded to JD tweet with this, Okay, JD
(01:20:02):
served honorably, but he wasn't kicking down doors. He was
in public affairs, which again is fine and honorable tim
after he was eligible for retirement. Retired people do that
if this, if it was a real problem, he would
have been stop lost and prevented from retiring. So that's
what Adam Kinsinger said in response to JD. It's basically say, yeah, JD,
(01:20:23):
you served at a rock, but you didn't. You didn't
go out there and you know, get into into firefights.
You were a public affairs officer. So trying to denigrate
JD's service, and that brought this fire from Joey Jones.
Joey Jones, you probably have seen a number of times
on Fox. He lost both of his legs in service
to this country. Joey Jones responded to Adam Kinsinger with this,
(01:20:46):
I sat behind a fifty cow machine gun in a
rock on roads littered with IEDs. I walked around Afghanistan
taking IEDs apart by hand in Iraq. In Afghanistan, even
pencil pushers were vulnerable, vulnerable to rockets and mortars landing
on their heads see Alisad this week. A chowhaul at
that very same base was hit. In two thousand and seven,
(01:21:06):
just before I got there, I lost more than one
buddy to friendly fire in Afghanistan from foreign nationals on
a secured base. Everyone on a base in a rock
or Afghanistan got combat pay because they were literally surrounded
by a capable enemy. Adam is a bonafide blank bird
for even posting this. He called him an sh it bird.
(01:21:31):
It's okay to spell it right anyway, Adam. So I
mean just veterans. I said this yesterday. We reverer our
veterans and veterans bristole when people steal valor, and then
when other people in an attempt to defend that attack
other veterans. They don't like it. They don't like it
at all.
Speaker 8 (01:21:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:21:48):
And the media, though they've already turned it around. Every
piece of copy that I see online now alleged stolen valar.
Speaker 6 (01:21:57):
Yes, they managed that. It's alleged.
Speaker 3 (01:22:00):
Oh yeah, you know, there's no other type there I mean,
you either claim that you did something that you didn't
do and thus are guilty of stolen valid or you
don't and on video.
Speaker 6 (01:22:10):
Doing it exactly.
Speaker 3 (01:22:11):
The proof is there, right right, So, But I just
love the fact that Joey Jones, and again so many
veterans are coming out out now not only to tear
down Tim Walls for what he did, but also to
defend jd Vance because it's true, if you're there as
a public affairs officer or a tailgunner, it doesn't matter
what your job is. If you are in a combat zone,
you can absolutely be hit by or again with an
(01:22:33):
ied trip one. You are in an extraordinarily dangerous place.
And Tim Walls refused to go to that dangerous place
he was in for twenty four years. He was fine
serving in Italy where there's no combat. When he's told
you're going to a rock, he said, I'm out sea.
Then spent twenty years telling everybody he served in a
rock that's stolen.
Speaker 6 (01:22:54):
Think they'll get him off the ticket.
Speaker 3 (01:22:56):
No, no you can't, they can't. It's it's too he's
remember he's he's everybody's daddy. Now he's everybody's daddy. He's
the lovable or real talker. Okay, let's get to the

distinctly the time that you know, as I was growing
up and I was pushing up on you know, kind
of puberty age, and you know, body changes are happening
and these kinds of things, and you know, I'd heard
about birds and the bees and all those kinds of
things before. And I remember when my dad first time

let's go in your room for a minute. And I
said okay, And he sat me down on the bed

be interested in some things that you probably don't know
a lot about. So we need to have a talk
(01:34:08):

from the store and he handed me a box of

Freeway all the way from Wayside. You're loosing twenty minutes
this way. The east text was already scooched up from
Quitman trying to make the museum district. You lose two
or three minutes. It's not bad for the East text
of al from Kingwood. We'll get on the road now.
(01:35:33):
We've got six to ten north loopy westbound forty five.
The squeeze as you backed up from about hirsh now
and the west loop down to uptown.
Speaker 3 (01:35:42):
Get on now.
Speaker 4 (01:35:42):
While the getting on is good southbound, you're only loosing
maybe a minute or two. Terry, What do you do
in the golf ball when there's nothing to do with
your doppler? There are y'all polishing it or what?
Speaker 3 (01:35:51):
I'm a the Generator Supercenter dot com traffic center. All right,
thank you very much, Lucky. Yeah, I was hoping that
the sarcasm there would have been thicking else that everybody
got that, because if that's normal dad energy, well we
got define normal again, ter Smith, go ahead.
Speaker 18 (01:36:06):
Hey, we're usually trying to invent a new dance to
generate some rain so that we can make use.
Speaker 3 (01:36:14):
Out of the golf lof you can borrow this.
Speaker 18 (01:36:15):
So I'm practicing some new routines just so you know,
and you know what. We may end up with a
shower thunderstorm this afternoon, but most of us are not
going to see any rain. There is a twenty percent
chance of the afternoon thunderstorm developing today. Temperatures, though they're
going to be as hot as they were yesterday, upper
nineties to around one oh two heat index is still
(01:36:37):
an issue one O eight to one twelve this afternoon
for several hours, so hopefully you're not outside and you're
side inventing new dances with me. Drive weekend upper nineties
to one O two and then a little bit of rain.
A twenty percent chance of a thunderstorm Monday, a thirty
percent chance of some rain Tuesday. The upside to that
is we may see our temperatures back off just a
(01:36:59):
bit mid to upper nineties to start off the work week.
Speaker 3 (01:37:02):
All right, very good, Thank you Terry Smith. And right
now we have eighty three degrees at your official severe
weather station. News Radio seven forty ktr AH.
Speaker 2 (01:37:10):
It's Houston's Morning News, brought to you by New South
Windows Solutions. Now back to Jimmy and Scherah with the
info you need to take on the day.
Speaker 3 (01:37:20):
Okay, it is seven eighteen now coming up here in
just a few after we do traffic, we're going to
talk to Debi Georgiatis about this one. There's an article
in the Gateway Pundit about phantom voters, and this needs
to be addressed.
Speaker 16 (01:37:34):
Shara.
Speaker 3 (01:37:35):
You and I have talked about this a number of
times over the last couple of days talking about being
too big to rig. You know, the Trump machine is
going to have to get people out there voting by
big enough numbers that they can't steal the votes. In Georgia.
This article says there are five hundred and fifty eight,
eight hundred and seventy six phantom voters on the Georgia
voter rolls. And these include people who are registered, who
(01:37:56):
have invalid addresses, people who pair. Seventy eight thousand of
them registered according to their forms on a federal holiday,
and as we know, there are no federal offices open
to register voters on federal holidays. Yet somehow seventy eight
thousand of them were able to do that. Others have
moved to have no for reading address, but they're still
on the rolls, permanent moved out of permanently moved out
(01:38:18):
of state. Sixty eight thousand of those, they're still on
the rolls in Georgia. So the concern here is this,
there's five hundred and fifty eight thousand plus of them
in Georgia alone. President Trump lost Georgia by only eleven
seven hundred votes in twenty twenty. What is going to
happen in November if these things are not cleared up
(01:38:39):
in all states, but in particular in the swing states,
the battleground states that will decide this election. So we'll
talk about phantom voters with Debbi coming up here after
we do traffican weather. Here's Scottmarkel.
Speaker 7 (01:38:49):
Right.
Speaker 4 (01:38:50):
I'm going to pitch from the stretch here, but we
have a complete shutdown spurred three thirty at Rolling Brook.

lot of crazy roadwork this morning. Darry Michael Berry and
Clay and Buck Skymike in the classic elite GMC Traffic Center.
Speaker 3 (01:39:24):
All right, thank you, good sir, and Terry's forecast it
calls for more of the same, hot, hot, hot, bright
sunshine You're gonna be abound one hundred ish today. Heat
index will be up near one hundred and eight two
hundred and twelve tomorrow and also on Sunday. The entire
weekend will be near triple digits. There's a chance that
could be down into the mid nineties Monday Tuesday because
(01:39:44):
there's a twenty percent chance of rain. But we are
looking in the mid to upper nineties, if not the
lower triple digits for the entire work week to come
as well. Right now eighty three at your official severe

Come on off to pass the torch for a new
generation this race. We have an election to win. Is
changing by the minute. Where does what's going to happen?
News Radio seven forty ktrh Okay. As mentioned, we're talking
about phantom voters. Now what kind of an impact they're
going to have in the battleground and swing states WI
Georgiadis is a political analyst and a podcast host Debbie
(01:40:51):
the Gateway punt It says five hundred and fifty eight
thousand phantom voters in Georgia alone. Trump lost Georgia by
less than twelve thousand votes four years years ago. So
what are we looking at here?
Speaker 9 (01:41:03):
Oh, we're looking at the danger. First of all, thank
you for having me, good morning. We're looking at the
danger of a stolen election. Is that short terms, That's
exactly what we're looking for looking at And the problem
between now and election day obviously way under one hundred
and day fewer that one hundred days away, is what
do people do in Georgia to try to remove if
they can everything that people they can remove, but is
(01:41:28):
really going to take a longer term effort than just
between now November's diligence on election day or during the
election period and then longer term effort to really clean
the roles.
Speaker 6 (01:41:37):
But they're being stymied.
Speaker 5 (01:41:38):
I mean, particularly in Georgia by a Republican Rhino governor
and the Secretary of State. I mean the ones who
ushered into Democrats just Senate seats in the last go round.
Speaker 28 (01:41:52):
Yeah, you're one hundred percent right. Georgia is a real danger.
Speaker 9 (01:41:55):
I want to just fear listeners who wonder whether this
phantom voters thing is a real issue or not. The
Gateway punted article you mention is wonderful, But even Judicial
Watch Tom Fittens group, they've been regularly pursuing litigation in
states to ask them to force them to remove voters
who are not Maybe they're moved away, they're deceased, they're
not legitimate voters.
Speaker 28 (01:42:16):
Just one statu to keep in mind.
Speaker 9 (01:42:18):
They sued in California and in February of twenty twenty three,
there's a little over a year ago, Los Angeles.
Speaker 28 (01:42:25):
Confirmed they had just one county.
Speaker 9 (01:42:28):
Los Angeles confirmed they had removed one point two million
ineligible voters. There's a long term from their roles as
a result of being sued by Judicial Watch. This is
a national problem at the moment, as a problem between
now and November, trying to put.
Speaker 28 (01:42:44):
Pressure on states like Georgia.
Speaker 9 (01:42:46):
But this phantom voter's term just means people added into
the registers or not removed, whose votes can be cast
in a variety of nefarious ways. It stimy's the idea
of the consent of the government and we the people
electing our gunmant.
Speaker 5 (01:43:00):
Well people getting registered to vote the minute they apply
for welfare who come across the border illegally, that puts
them on the rules, doesn't it.
Speaker 28 (01:43:10):
We have that issue as well.
Speaker 9 (01:43:12):
And in the great state of Texas, I am getting
contact people are contacting me about trying to do something
even in Texas about are apparently our process of allowing
illegal aliens to get their names on the voter rules
that the whole we've been laxed or in what right
term is just not tuned in enough to this threat
(01:43:32):
to really it is to the system of electing our
own government in America.
Speaker 28 (01:43:36):
Even even Texas has a problem.
Speaker 3 (01:43:39):
So who's providing oversight? Obviously, every state has their own
Secretary of State that are supposed to run their elections,
and they have their own rules, But shouldn't there be
some kind of oversight to make sure that states that
have those massive numbers you just said, California, really goot
Georgia here. Shouldn't there be oversight in some way at
the federal level.
Speaker 9 (01:43:57):
That is a really great constitutional question. Constitution says essentially
that all voting the control of voting systems resides with
the states.
Speaker 28 (01:44:06):
The federal government is not supposed to do that.
Speaker 9 (01:44:08):
But the Supreme Court did rule in twenty eighteen that
removing voters who are ineligible under the finished AFT, the
Supreme Court said in twenty eighteen the voter rules must
be clean. It's mandatory to remove people are ineligible.
Speaker 28 (01:44:24):
So they gave a little bit.
Speaker 9 (01:44:25):
Of push to people who are working filing these lawsuits
trying to urge voters to be removed, But in terms
of constitutional question is very hard. At the federal level,
at least the Congress could say, as to people who
are permitted to vote in federal elections, we want some
criteria to be sure they're actually eligible citizens.
Speaker 28 (01:44:46):
But it's really going to fall in the states.
Speaker 9 (01:44:47):
And one last quick thing I want to point out,
even at the state level, the control over the massive
number of voters registered is problematic. The more we can
push down actual controls, reponsibility for the content of voter
roles to lower and lower levels down to the county level.
It's more responsive to the people. They're more able to
(01:45:08):
handle and actually clean out these voter roles. The litigas
I mentioned, Tom Finn and Judicial Watch got after the
counties in Los Angeles. I think that the answer is
pushing county responsibility for voter roles with consequences for failure
to clean them out.
Speaker 3 (01:45:23):
Yeah. Well, and that's great advice. And Tom Fitness Group
does an amazing job at exposing this stuff, and hopefully
we will indeed get some of those answers and get
some of these things cleaned up before early voting starts
in less than sixty days in some states. Debbie Georgiada's
political analyst and podcast podcast host. Debbie, thank you so
much for the insight.

about inflation?
Speaker 5 (01:48:37):
Former Trump economic advisor Kevin has it there on Fox
Business the July inflation numbers will be coming out next
week Wednesday. It was the July jobs report that sent
global markets into a tail spin. Stock futures just sort

Nasdaq up a nearly three percent s and P five hundred,
(01:48:58):
with its best day in two years according to new
jobs numbers. However, the Bidenharest regime is replacing American workers
with foreigners.
Speaker 6 (01:49:08):
Though they deny it.
Speaker 3 (01:49:11):
Shara, the numbers don't lie.
Speaker 16 (01:49:13):
There are fewer Americans working today than there were just
before the pandemic. All of the job growth that we've seen,
millions worth, has all gone to foreign born workers.
Speaker 3 (01:49:23):
That's economist E. J. Antony.
Speaker 25 (01:49:25):
Over the last year, one point two million native born
Americans have lost their jobs, while foreign born workers have
increased one point three million.
Speaker 16 (01:49:36):
This is one of the reasons, by the way that
Americans are responding so negatively in polling about the economy.
They're not the ones getting the jobs.

Right now, the growing national debt threatens to surpass all
of America's wealth accumulation. Since it's found our total debt
fiscal obligations have reached ninety three percent of all the
wealth of mass since the nation was founded. Maya McGinnis
with the Committee for a Responsible Budget says, our leaders
they just tiptoe around this crushing debt and have for years.
Speaker 26 (01:50:18):
Unless a president creates a mandate for the importance of
addressing this issue and telling the truth to voters. We're
going to have to make some hard choices. It becomes
very difficult to address those things when they are president.
The next president cannot escape this issue.
Speaker 5 (01:50:32):
Yeah, the report estimates total amount federal debt liabilities, unfunded
obligations has now reached one hundred and forty two trillion
dollars is seven thirty four. But the leftist Green New
Deal is continuing crushing main Street and Joe Biden preparing
to shell out another four point three billion dollars in

borrowed money in climate handouts to his buddies before he
leaves office the.
Speaker 3 (01:50:59):

so called Inflation Reduction Act, which put forth all of

news conferences since Joe Biden left office, taking questions at

Mari A Lago for more than an hour yesterday, and
he blasted Democrats.
Speaker 6 (01:51:43):
For removing Joe Biden the way they did.
Speaker 7 (01:51:47):
I'm no Biden fan, but I'll tell you what, from
a constitutional standpoint, from any standpoint you look at, they
took the presidency away and people were saying.
Speaker 3 (01:51:55):
He lost after the debate he couldn't win.
Speaker 7 (01:51:57):
Well, I don't know that that's true necessarily, but whether
he could win or he couldn't win, he had the
right to run.
Speaker 5 (01:52:04):
Trump announcing three debates in September, but Kamala Harris, who
finally talked to reporters for less than two minutes, has
only agreed to one. That's the one with ABC. Don't

what is necessary to strengthen not only the issue of

(01:54:53):
country in Europe. It exists next to another country called Russia.
Russia is a big country. Russia is a powerful country.
Russia decided to invade a smaller country called Ukraine, So
basically that's wrong.

Speaker 28 (01:55:25):
Is every day?
Speaker 6 (01:55:27):
Every day?
Speaker 8 (01:55:28):
It is time for us to agree that there are
things and tools that are available to us to slow
this thing down.
Speaker 3 (01:55:36):
Sorry about the low volume on that one. I couldn't
seem to elevate that anymore. You do understand the point here.
There is a reason why Sharah she said she will
not do it well. She said she will do an interview,
singular interview at some point by the end of the month.
That's twenty one days away. She has been president the
(01:55:56):
presidential nominee for the Democrats for about eighteen days now,
since Joe Biden endorsed her and essentially set this whole
thing in motion. So she will literally go if she
doesn't do this until let's say, the very end of
the month, an entire month without doing an interview with
a reporter. This is why when she has asked questions,
(01:56:17):
she has to actually think and answer them. She's not
capable of doing.
Speaker 5 (01:56:22):
That makes you wonder how she'll do a G seven
summit or how she'll like interact. I mean, this whole
thing is just so ridiculous. Everybody's giving her cover and
ABC George Stephanopolis he'll be doing answering all the questions
for her.
Speaker 3 (01:56:39):
Well literally, Trump will be debating George Stephanopoulos won't. That's
why that's the only one of the three that she
agreed to. And yet when we point these things out,
you know, and we say things like what Trump spokesperson
Caroline Levitt said yesterday.
Speaker 32 (01:56:53):
Well, it's different because while Joe Biden was incompetent by sinility,
Kamala Harris is incompetent, frankly, by stupidity.
Speaker 3 (01:57:01):
She's right, by the way, when Donald Trump says.
Speaker 7 (01:57:03):
She hasn't done an interview, she can't do an interview.
She's barely competent. And she can't do an interview.
Speaker 3 (01:57:10):
We're apparently castigating her for being of Indian ethnicity or
part Jamaican ethnicity. They're saying it's racist and it's sexist
to criticize her race and sex. Don't make you stupid.
Being stupid makes you stupid. Giving answers like some of
the ones that I just shared with you make you stupid.
(01:57:30):
They have nothing to do with what she looks like.
This is the reality. And anybody who is listening to
her speak to all of these different issues, who dares
the cast of vote for her honestly is admitting they
don't give a rip about their family and they don't
give a rip about their country.
Speaker 6 (01:57:44):
Yeah, and you know, look around it.
Speaker 5 (01:57:46):
I would argue this Rifley so to go after her
running mate Walls, but while everybody's focused on him, they're
not really holding her feet to any fire, right, I mean,
he's really running The red flag they throw out there
isn't that wonderful? And then they're hanging influencers on social
media to turn her into this really cool person.
Speaker 3 (01:58:05):
I mean, I just can't hit you over there. I'm
gonna get to Mike here. But you're right, Cheryl. Let's
pick this up on the on the other side, because
you're exactly right, Scott Michael.

She said this is a horrible way to start today.
Speaker 3 (01:59:15):
I'm gonna have to dig that up, but you know what,
I like it when she says that.

We're in the Generator Supercenter dot Com Traffic Center, by
the way. That high pressure dome thing, Terry, that's that's
a hurricane repellent, right, Yes, it is hurricane.
Speaker 3 (01:59:33):
It's like a shield.
Speaker 18 (01:59:35):
Yes, and it's well entrenched over us not going anywhere
anytime soon.
Speaker 6 (01:59:42):
So hey, we don't want to worry about hurricane.
Speaker 18 (01:59:45):
Yeah, but we have to deal with eaton humidity, and
we've got to deal with it for quite a while.
It looks like I don't see us really cooling off
significantly anytime soon. Twenty percent chance you might get a
rain drop though today. That might be a nice little bonus.
Upper ninety two this afternoon heat in decks running one
O eight or higher. We've got a heat advisory until

I'll tell you what we've got. Most of our freeways
are kind of Friday like. You've got your you've got
your toll bridge southbound, that usual squash up. You know
they'll be done with that, supposedly in about three weeks
from I ten.
Speaker 3 (02:00:59):
For now, we're losing twelve minutes or so.
Speaker 4 (02:01:01):
You got downtown the east text elevated, and that is
pack up. You lose fourteen minutes from I ten down
to the fan and exit if you try and hit
the Med Center.

hundred and eight hundred and twelve. More of the same

one hundreds. The work to come Monday through Friday, very
little change except for Monday Tuesday, there's a twenty percent

Thank you.
Speaker 3 (02:03:25):
We know there's a golden rule. Mind your own damn business.
Speaker 6 (02:03:29):
Again.
Speaker 3 (02:03:29):
I don't know what the volume dipped on those so much.
Sorry about that, but you share it. Okay, maybe it's
just coming through on my own headset awkwardly, but shar
this is the guy that Kamala chose this week. As
we all know. Now, this is the guy that's set
up that snitch line you just heard they're telling Minnesotans
during COVID. And by the way, that wasn't during the
summer of twenty twenty when he was allowing Minneapolis to
(02:03:51):
get to burn. That was in twenty twenty one. This
is after the biggest threat of COVID was gone, and
they were still trying to control people's lives through that
snitch line. You call and report your neighbors. But then
he lives by the You know, his big thing is
our golden rule. Mind your own damn business. Mind your
(02:04:12):
own business, he says, when it comes to pornography and
kids' schools and all kinds of other really really strained
and tampons and restrooms and everything else. But he's the
guy who set up the snitch line. I think that
says a lot about the Democratic ticket, doesn't it.
Speaker 5 (02:04:26):
Well, I've had his attitude for a long time, so
I'm not the right person to ask.
Speaker 3 (02:04:32):
Well, you know what's really bizarre about this. Here's how
radical they are. Here's how radical this ticket is the
most extremist ticket probably in the history of presidential politics
in Ohio. Senator Shared Brown. He's been there for this,
he's seeking his fourth term now, hes been there for
eighteen years. He's a career politician. He is fleeing from
this ticket. He is for the first time since nineteen
(02:04:54):
ninety four when he first entered Congress. He's not going
to go to the DNC because he I doesn't want
to be seen with Kamala Harris and Tim Walls. In fact,
he was asked by a journalist just a few days ago,
when Kamala and Tim Walls come to Ohio the campaign,
will he campaign with them? And he stammered and stuttered
and hemden hawd and finally said, well, she's got her
(02:05:15):
own schedule, and I'm going to have a We're going
to have our own schedule, and she's got our own strategy.
We're going to have our own. He won't be seen
with them in his state where he's trying to win
a fourth term in the United States Senate. That's radicalism
when when your own senators think that you are going
to hurt their chances on the down ballot races, that's radicalism.
Speaker 5 (02:05:36):
Look, we've all been this is all show. We've all
been let around by the nose this whole thing. I'm
a conspiracy theorist. I think that we are not going
to really know what's going on until October. Then we'll
know why October. Well, there's the October surprise, you know,
and try they keep thinking that the Democrats will do
(02:05:58):
the October surprise. What about he had one in twenty twenty.
It was a Hunter Biden laptop and they got covered up.
You think Trump doesn't have an October surprise in his
hat too?
Speaker 3 (02:06:09):
Yeah, well again he might. He might, although they're giving
us surprises every single day with this radical ticket already.
I mean, that's just the truth of the matter. So
what more there can be that could make this part
of that party and that that ticket look worse than
they do. I just don't know. But you're right, there's
a lot of time between now and the early voting.
Speaker 5 (02:06:29):
In a lot of sen they're keeping us all distracted
while they slip in ballots that have no people assigned
to them.
Speaker 3 (02:06:34):
The phantoms, You're exactly right. We covered that one as well. Hey, Cheryt,
thanks for let me be a part of it yesterday
and today. Jimmy is back on Monday. Everybody, have a
great weekend, be well, be safe, stay free, see too
