Speaker 2 (07:03):
Trh Houston's Morning news continues With Jimmy.

Speaker 3 (07:08):
Barrett All, right so we had some Some Tesla i'm
giggling about this BECAUSE i find it funny how many
how many protests did you have to have before it's
legitimately a? PROTEST i, mean should it be based on
per per? Thousand so if you have a city Like San,
antonio for, example with a population of one point five million,

(07:29):
people how many protesters what percentage of the population needs
to show up for to be a legit? Protest because
there are Two Global day Of action protests scheduled In
San antonio On, saturday one at the at A tesla

(07:49):
dealership in the city and the other one a couple
of miles, away fairly well. Publicized from WHAT i can,
Tell Bright, Bart texas, went ALTHOUGH i think they considered
it a waste of their time to. Go they observed
each Anti elon musk and demonstration which began just before

(08:10):
twelve noon at one dealership close to the heart of the.
City another one held two hours later at A tesla
dealership several miles. Away neither protest got more than a
dozen attendees who waved signs critical Of TESLA Ceo Elon
musk And President Donald. Trump, well, yeah that's exactly what
you would expect to see less than a dozen at

(08:30):
either one of these. Locations there was also a protesting
done here In. HOUSTON i saw one OF i can't
remember which LOCAL tv STATION i observed this, on but
again it was sparsely, attended but it looked like they
were traveling in one of their news vehicles and they

(08:53):
kind of showed a loop over and over of a
maybe a block worth of where there was probably maybe
a thirty or forty people in that, Block so they
kind of looked to me like it was loops so
it would look, like you, know they were driving block
after block after block and there were people that are,
protesting AND i don't think that was the case at.

(09:14):
ALL i think they just basically did a loop of
the same because because it was the same cars and
the same people over and over and over and over,
again they would probably, say, well we're just you, know
we were just focusing on that one block and we
had to have enough footage show for the. Report, okay
but he gave the impression there were more people there
than there were. Here here's the thing about, Protesting you

(09:36):
have to really first of, all unless you're paid to,
protest most of us have a, job, right so it's
going to be. Limited what what would get you to
show up to actually physically protest. Something it's gotta be
something you really really care. About as it turns, out
by the, way and this is From Elon musk, himself
he said an investigation he put this on. X an

(09:57):
investigation has found Five Act blue funded groups responsible For tesla, Protests,
Troublemakers Disruption. Project troublemakers is one of the Group Disruption,
Project rise And. Resist these are the names of these,
Groups Indivisible project And Democratic socialists Of america At. Blue
funders Include Reid, Hoffman Herbert, Sandler Patricia, bauman And George. Soros,

(10:23):
yeah so these protesters have bought and paid for five
to ten time for traffic and mother.

Speaker 4 (10:29):
Together, yes WHEN i see people, protesting it just makes me.
Four whatever they're AGAINST i don't. Know there's something obnoxious about,
it And i'm just, like, oh, oh give me some.
Fur i'll put some fur on right.

Speaker 3 (10:39):

Speaker 1 (14:39):
Traffic and weather next. On the, ten, all right?

Speaker 3 (14:45):
Well who's helping, that's, the question? Right who's helping and?
Under what circumstances five twenty twos are time Here On The.
Houston's morning news i'm very, pleased to stay not to
stay to say, For coffee please i'm very pleased to
say that either one of my adult sons have asked me,
for any MONEY nor have i given. THEM any money

(15:06):
i mean from the standpoint, of you know PAYING bills
or i mean they may get birthday, money or something.
But that's it and of course my kids, are older now,
so you know you'd like to think that you raise
your kids to a certain point and, then you know
you just. Let them go but it turns out for

(15:30):
at least fifty percent of the, parents out there that's.
Not the case they're still paying for, their adult children, and,
that ultimately well it's bad from a couple. Of different
standpoints it's number one is, your you know children have
to learn that. At some point you. Know they, can't
you know you may have spoiled them rotten and given them,

(15:51):
everything as kids but that doesn't mean the behavior can
continue as adults if they can't afford to do. It,
for themselves anyway they were talking About It. On fox
business there's a little bit on how. THAT conversation went i.

Speaker 19 (16:03):
Know people whose parents are subsidizing them in ways that
are beyond what you, could even imagine to live, in
luxury apartments to take lavish vacations and dine in restaurants that,
YOU know, adults i know have an even Necessarily dined
in and so you just sit, back and say what
are you. Teaching your kids you're not teaching them to
be on any, kind of budget and you and your

(16:23):
money may not be here one day to protect them
or to afford them some of these novelties. That they're
ENJOYING and so i really sit, back and say the
best thing a, parent can Do and albeit i'm, not
a parent but is to teach kids about, Money, and
say OKAY you're making x amount of, Dollars at work
you're not, going to concerts you're not spending money on expensive.

(16:45):
Sneakers and clothes you're going to actually make a Budget
And a microsoft excel spreadsheet and you're going to live.

Speaker 7 (16:51):
On that budget and that.

Speaker 19 (16:52):
Means you're going to go without. Some things too and
as you make more money than it can be aspirational
and you can do some of that stuff and teach
them the right.

Speaker 1 (16:59):
Way, to live.

Speaker 20 (17:00):

a Lawyer here in texas going viral for claiming that
you CAN get a dui from, too much caffeine as
in too many, cups of Coffee Too, much red bull
whatever your delivery. Source might be california man got charged

(27:57):
for it. In twenty fifteen they eventually dropped the charge
because they couldn't prove how much he had. In its
system but according to This Lawyer, in, fort worth yeah
you could end UP with a dui for. Too MUCH
coffee because dui stands for driving, under, the influence right
it doesn't, mean alcohol necessarily could be drugs or, in

(28:21):
this case it could Be Too, much red bull too many,
cups of coffee. TOO much, caffeine i mean you do
get if you owe, D on caffeine you do get
a bit of, a buzz. GOING don't, You, i know
mike YOU know when i, used to, drink you know
fully caffeinated coffee, ALL the time i, get a, little
you know brain buzz going. In the morning and evidently
that would be enough to. Cause a problem The guy

(28:43):
in california back in twenty fifteen got pulled over. For
driving erradically caffeine was the only thing, in his system
and they charged HIM with the dui. For, doing it
eventually they did drop the charge because they couldn't prove
there was enough caffeine in the system. To be intoxicated, but,
in theory yes you could GET it d ui for having,
too many espressos Too much red bull whatever, it may

(29:04):
be driving under the. Influence of caffeine who knew five
forty time for driving. In weather, together that's crazy?

(31:26):
a difficult. Confession to make if you are a parent helping,
AN adult child i would like to know how. You're
helping them what do you pay for that you really
were kind of hopeful they would pay for themselves OR
in your i realized that there might be a, little
embarrassment evolved at least for some. People in this so

(31:46):
maybe it be easier to rite, out a relative because
we all have relatives who, do it right who, have
adult children and they're still paying for things for. Their
adult kids and you wouldn't you wouldn't dream of doing that,
for your child but they're doing it, for their child
and their child as a result is either taking advantage
of their parent, or you know.

Speaker 3 (32:04):
Just isn't. Adulting fifty percent what prompted this is Fifty
percent of american kids are getting help from their, parents to,
pay you know bills that you would normally be. Paying
for yourself so again you go to THE, iHeartRadio app

Six old at our Time here On. HOUSTON'S morning news
i made a comment last, week ABOUT eggs and i
had a guy, emailed me saying where are you. Getting
this from we have a story that egg prices are
down sixty percent in just. The RECENT weeks, and, i said, well,
YOU know anecdotally i mean other. Than, THE story anecdotally

(46:23):
I went to kroger and they had. EGGS on sale
i mean they had a, bunch of them so it
must be one, of that oops we bought too many
eggs things and rather, than you know, have them expire,
they you know they put them on sale and they
had a PRICE at three i want to say three eighty,
nine a dozen which. Is really cheap well it's, not

(46:44):
cheap historically it's just cheap compared to the egg prices.
We've BEEN paying and i do remember a time when
egg prices there were like up around like eight. Something a,
DOZEN so yeah i can see where the sixty percent might.
HAVE come. FROM i. DON'T i don't I think there's
i could find that. Same PRICE today but i did,

(47:05):
see This story and i'm, not you know who knows
how accurate. These prices are because egg prices it's, like
stock futures they seem to. Change every day but story
says that hib sells the nation's. Lowest priced eggs this
is according to New Data From Personal Finance. From Finance
buzz finance buzz researchers analyzed the average price of A

(47:26):
DOZEN large grade a white eggs at each of the
nation's eight biggest grocery changes That, Include, Hgib, Kruger, Giant, Eagle,
meyer target. Walmart and more the average price of those
eggs had climbed more than forty Two percent since sharingwary,
of the sixth hitting a high of five to sixty
A carton on march the seventeenth chib while everybody was

(47:49):
charging five, sixty a card and they were charging four

put in, an order. Last year no problems our logos on.

Speaker 7 (54:40):
There with the.

Speaker 27 (54:41):
Word conservative very visible so when we went to get,
a restock this year we thought that we would have.
No issue at all but unfortunately they told us that
our logo is not approved because. Of the word conservative and, They,
quoted a policy yes they quoted a policy that was
stated that they wouldn't print any logos that were. Quote

(55:03):
political in, nature, so we, thought okay.

Speaker 4 (55:06):
You know fair.

Speaker 27 (55:07):
Mistake we got on.

Speaker 7 (55:08):
The phone, with them, we said you know we're.

Speaker 27 (55:10):
Actually an educational nonprofit we're A five, oh one c
three which means that we actually. We can't be political
we can't endorse or oppose candidates for public, office or
political parties and after that conversation, we, kind.

Speaker 7 (55:22):
Of assumed oh well this.

Speaker 27 (55:24):
Will clear it up they'll. Understand we're not political but
unfortunately they just could not get, past the word, conservative
so our artwork our. Logo was shut down at that
point they said they wouldn't.

Speaker 7 (55:35):
Be able, to do the order and. Now, Here we.

Speaker 3 (55:38):
Are okay i'm assuming you found a different brand in
order to do business with would you like to? Give,
them a plug well there's over.

my sense of fairness or, trying to BE fair even
though i don't really tried that to be fair with
companies to do with, This company has done but has,
anybody bothered to check like or maybe put in an
order for some other organization, for liberal, women saying you
know liberal women instead of conservative women to see if

(56:26):
they'd be. Willing to print that that.

Speaker 27 (56:29):

THAT'S been a nightmare.

Ktrh time saving traffic.

Speaker 1 (01:05:39):
Next on the ten.

Speaker 3 (01:05:43):
Six thirty eight Hour Time Here. ON houston's boring news
i did the story a, couple OF weeks ago so
i know That It's not. An, april FOOL'S joke otherwise
otherwise i would Think It's an. Elaborate april fools, joke
it's Not tomorrow which, Is april the first and are
we all too Old To participate in? APRIL fool's, jokes,
anyway I mean seriously the usps announced several weeks ago

(01:06:08):
the Changes would begin. ON april the first i don't
know why they picked that date that, They did the
move together with recent workforce reductions that the agency is
feared to bring delays to mail. DELIVERY across the country
usps agreed to work with And this is how, news

(01:06:28):
we called It the So Called department of government. Efficiency
on reforming itself? What are these changes how? Will, it
impact you well if you're like me and YOU Don't
use the us mail virtually, anything or very little then
it really won't. Impact you at all. I'm trying to
THINK the, Last, THING i sent oh i. Know what
it was it was A Check To the internal revenue

(01:06:52):
service TO Payable, to THE us treasury and. I really
didn't care if they didn't get it for, a couple
of weeks that. Was fine with me if if it took,
forever to get there that wasn't going to be. A
problem for me the changes will, affect, first, class mail periodicals,
marketing mail package services, including, Bound, Printed Matter, media Mail Library,

(01:07:14):
MAIL Us Ground, Advantage Usps, ground Advantage Priority Mail. And
priority mail express the changes are part of Usps is
So called delivering For, america ten year plan which is.
Designed to save money depending, on where you live you
could now experience either faster delivery. Times or slower ones

(01:07:36):
seventy five percent of first class mail will keep its
current service standards while fourteen percent was seen. Improvement in,
delivery times other services, on the other hand are likely to.
Face longer delivery times the delivery times won't exceed the
current five day service standard. For first class Mail According,
to the post office they're doing these. Changes in two

(01:07:58):
phases one, of them starts tomorrow this second One will.
START on july first usps said About eleven percent of
americans using first class mail will. Experience delays and delivery
forty nine point five percent of zip code pairs will.
See slower delivery times that's half for a single. Piece
first class mail what is going, to be sped up evidently,

(01:08:19):
are the marketing mail The Things that the post, office
makes money from versus the things, like a birthday. Card,
which they don't basically. That's how that works, so if,
you are you know trying to send a birthday card
TO the mail which i gave up on, about ten
years ago then then it may take longer to get
to its destination six forty time for traffic.

Speaker 4 (01:08:41):
And weather to together thinking, Alert, Noise for me, jimmy,

Forty k, t rh you know it's really amazing to
me how the progressive leftist continues to double down on what,
they supposedly believe in and they just believe that they weren't,
forceful enough, in explaining you know where. They stood on,

(01:14:37):
issues that's the problem. That's What they believe Tim. Wats
was In rosenberg you are, rosenberg over the weekend and
here's what he had. To say about that and we
get Some reaction From Former, clinton POLSTER mark penn's who
i think believes. These people are delusional we.

Speaker 29 (01:14:54):
Let them define, the issue on immigration we let them
DEFINE the ISSUE ON, d and i dei and we
left them to.

Speaker 4 (01:15:01):

Speaker 36 (01:15:04):
Mess because we weren't bold enough to, stand up and,
say you damn right were.

Speaker 4 (01:15:07):
Proud of these policies we're going to put them on
and we're. Going, to Execute them well the democrats have.

Speaker 7 (01:15:13):
FALLEN off a cliff i.

Speaker 40 (01:15:14):
Haven't, seen anything like this although you can go back
to nineteen seventy two when they got one state or
nineteen eighty four when. They, got In state look the
democratic Policies really put the. Democrats IN a hole and
i think in retrospect They're looking at the, BIDEN presidency
and saying i don't know. How he was president, he

(01:15:36):
was weak internationally he, close inflation at home he, left
the border.

Speaker 4 (01:15:40):
Open he didn't.

Speaker 40 (01:15:41):
DO anything about crime i think that in retrospect people
are looking, back and they're wondering how on earth Did?
They even vote democratic and that is a really big. Problem,
for this party.

Speaker 7 (01:15:53):
Well not the Leadership you heard what.

Speaker 23 (01:15:55):
Tim woltzsh just said we're going to, Put these policies
in we're going to.

Speaker 41 (01:15:57):
Stand by our policies and then He Claims that the
republican republicans set.

Speaker 7 (01:16:02):
The tone for.

Speaker 41 (01:16:03):
Immigration Now they didn't.

Speaker 4 (01:16:04):
Joe biden had.

Speaker 18 (01:16:05):
A Wide open border the democrats set.

Speaker 9 (01:16:07):
The tone for illegal migrants, coming into The.

Speaker 27 (01:16:10):
Country not the republicans they thought about.

Speaker 11 (01:16:12):
It, ALL the way yeah i really don't know.

Speaker 40 (01:16:15):
What, planet he's on frankly he's not Really likely to
be Democratic Leadership unless the democratic party drives itself down to.
A single state again i think on border, politics and
border Policy That is where president trump is, getting his,
highest ratings you, know near. Sixty percent high fifties he.

(01:16:38):
Closed the border rapidly people see all The things that
the biden administration was saying about the border.

Speaker 4 (01:16:44):
To, HAVE been nonsense frankly.

Speaker 3 (01:16:46):
I Think the only shot democrats have going forward is
they're going to have to, kick out the radicals the
progressive far left. Wing of the party they're going to
have to kick him out and run. Back towards the
middle that's. Only chance they've got let the progressive left.

Houston Working To Recall. Houston mayor JOHN whitmeyer, according to
abc thirteen it's gaining steam and readying for a push
to get the effort on the ballad. In twenty. Twenty

(01:25:50):
five gaining steam this is the first. TIME hearing about
it i don't think it's. Exactly a groundswell here we're
told the organization has been working, for almost a year,
so in other words Just About slightly after john. Whitmyer
got into, office by the way here's what it takes.

(01:26:12):
To recall the mayor Recalling a mayor in houston requires
twenty five percent of the votes in. The last General,
election so for houston that would be about, sixty three
thousand signatures all of which have to be gathered and.
Submitted within thirty days that's more than two, thousand signatures
per day all of who must have be Registered voters In.
The city of houston so you have to get sixty three, thousand,

(01:26:34):
people to say yeah We Want, to recall john whitmyre
and they have to verify those signatures before you can
potentially get. That ON the ballot the grip began accepting
donations this week to, assist with the effort and launched
a new website at the, beginning of The year saying
that whitmyer's administration is Incompetent. AND dangerous for houston i

(01:26:57):
can tell you what They Don't, like about john whitmire
and that's he's not, progressive enough for them not progressive.
Enough for this organization this, is probably you know these
are the People Who think that rodney ellis is to
be All In, all In. Harris county in houston they
These These are the lena hildago types who don't like

(01:27:21):
having to work with somebody who's actually rational and reasonable,
and tough on crime.

Though he's a democrat. He's tough, on crime you know
he's looking to eliminate waste In, the city of houston and.
There's plenty Of that they don't they don't want anybody in,
there who's, looking to you know eliminate people who are
not getting the job done or, or or, looking to
you know trim millions of dollars from the budget because
it's being spent on pet causes that don't have anything

(01:27:49):
to do. With helping the taxpayers the people actually pay
The taxes In. The city of. Houston That's that's job

Take on the day seven nineteen is Our Time Here.
IN houston's, MORNING news a right i did a, QUESTION of.
THE day i HAVEN'T i will admit i have not
gotten a lot of, traction ON this ONE and i. Think,
I know WHY unfortunately i. Think i Know why the

(01:30:56):
question i've been asking this morning is a out. Helping
your adult children and the reason what prompted me to
ask the question is it's now. Up to fifty percent
fifty percent of adult children are getting help from their
parents on basic things like you know where their, rent

(01:31:17):
or their mortgage with, with with monthly bills, those types
of things, or JUST playing cash and. I find it shocking. I,
DON'T know if yeah i understand the part of parenthood
that makes you feel, responsible for your kids but at
some point in time you kind of, have to nudge

(01:31:38):
them those little birds out of the nest right to
kind of. Take Care of themselves so i've been asking
this morning if you have any have any sort of
you know what what you may have been doing to.
Help your adult child if you, have a you know
a brother or sister or some other relative who's, helping
their adult child what they're doing to. Help their adult,
Child and so far i've. Only had one taker my son.

Speaker 3 (01:34:26):
Ten seven three is Our time here. IN houston's boring
news I, Was Made, in america jerry Reynolds? Was made?
In america your. Car that might be it's kind of,
a hard. To Say isn't it jerry reynolds joins Us
right now the president announcing of twenty five percent tariffs
on all cars Not Made, in the united states but

(01:34:48):
concerning the fact that tariff would also. Be on automobile
parts it's Not Assembled. In the united states so how
do We define what an american made? Car, is these,
days boy it's.

Speaker 11 (01:34:59):
Good tougher. And, tougher good morning yeah it's going to
be tough even for the car, companies who you know
build majority of Their Cars. In the, united states you
know you look At the percentages of american cars That,
are made inside America and you've got ford up, There
at Eighty percent tesla and rivian to electric car companies there,

(01:35:23):
are one hundred percent but they're sourcing eighty percent of
their Parts Outside. Of the united states so nobody's going
to get left out of this thing if It actually
happens on wednesday When IT'S scheduled to and i say
it tentatively because watching this president, as we've gone along

(01:35:45):
he loves the bluff and, he loves to win. But
he will compromise and it Wouldn't surprise me by wednesday
morning to see some many of the car companies make
commitments to Build Cars, in the united states and, if
they do that they may get. A PASS on it
but i. Don't think everybody will some, of the car,

(01:36:05):
Companies guys are man. THEY'RE in, real trouble i Mean,
you look at mazda they're only building twenty. Percent, Of Their,
vehicles jaguar land. Rover two luxury brands they Build Nothing.
In the united states so it's. This time it's different
it's not like the microchip shortage we dealt with. A

(01:36:28):
few years ago all car companies were.

Speaker 2 (01:36:30):
In the.

Speaker 11 (01:36:31):
Same boat. They're not this time it's. All across the
board some will get. Hurt, worse, than others yeah well
it's going to be a real tough thing to watch,
in the next few next.

Speaker 7 (01:36:41):
Few.

Speaker 3 (01:36:41):
Weeks, And Months yeah clearly president trump is trying to
get commitments from all of these probably all of these
manufacturers to set up Plants And. BUILDING the, united states
i mean, he's, already told them well if, you're building
it here you don't have. To worry about it so
he's expecting to hear from a lot of these companies
that they're going to be building either building more of
their vehicles here or perhaps. All their vehicles there he's, Looking,
to create.

Speaker 11 (01:37:01):
Jobs yeah he, IS and you know i think it's
important that people understand cars are not going to go.
UP twenty five percent i don't think there'll be. Any
cases of that these car companies are going to have
to find ways to absorb the majority of the, taxes
of the tariff, AND and you know i think some

(01:37:22):
of them will be able.

Speaker 38 (01:37:23):
To.

Speaker 11 (01:37:24):
Completely absorb it all you've got to remember how much
car prices have gone up just, the last three years
and that left the car companies. A, lot of room
now the downside is they're going to start cutting other
things so they. Can't absorb those tariffs you're. PROBABLY talking
about incentives a lot of the incentives that are there

(01:37:44):
today are, going to go away so we won't feel
the effects of it for sixty days or so because
the cars on the ground right, now are. You know
they're exempt but after that it's. Going to get dicey
so my advice this has been all WEEK and long
when I was there on Ktrh. With you guys saturday

(01:38:05):
if you're going, to buy a car if you think
you're going to buy a car in.

Speaker 7 (01:38:07):
The next ninety days pull that ahead.

Speaker 11 (01:38:11):
And do something.

Speaker 3 (01:38:12):
Now, do it now well, you could afford it. Or maybe. Afford,
it get, better no it's odd but what is the
average price of a vehicle? Up to these days we
we hit the fifty thousand threshold. For an average price.

Speaker 11 (01:38:24):
We hit the fifty thousand a couple of years ago.
And really backed off we're at. About forty eight thousand the.
Only difference is incentives that's forty eight thousand is the,
average transaction price today and that's. Kind of all, across that's,
every brand luxury brands and then the lesser. Brands also all,

(01:38:45):
average so. You know it's it that number is gonna,
eclipse fifty thousand again there's no question about it. If those, Tariffs,
come all.

Speaker 3 (01:38:53):

seven is Their Time Here. In houston's warning news Linda McMahon.
IS the education secretary i saw her over the weekend
giving an interview On Winding down the education department and
sending the money, directly TO the states which i think
at this point most of us we agree it would
be the. Right thing To do. Here is linda McMahon

(01:47:21):
it's really.

Speaker 41 (01:47:21):
To look at what education systems are really working. With
these innovative governors and this doesn't have anything To do With,
the department. Of education Per se department of education. Doesn't
educate one child we, don't decide on curriculum. We don't
hire teachers that's best done. At the local level and
you can see those Results in states like Mississippi and
states like louisiana which just had also incredible improvement IN

(01:47:46):
what's called the nape scores or. The nation's report card
and what we saw really was those states returning to basics,
what's called classical learning, teaching reading from phonics teaching math again,
and with memorization techniques because then you build on that
foundation and you can increase the level of learning in

(01:48:06):
a much. Shorter period of time and that's what a,
Lot of the states florida, Has been doing that iowa
is leading a lot on, that kind of innovation and
that's what. We want to see we want to be
able to provide states with good best, practices and, good
tools you know to help them really get back to
basics and get these scores up, so that you know

(01:48:27):
our students are not running, last in the world and
then we're not continuing to, spend so, much money you
know more per pupil than any other country when you
think About The fact That social department of. Education was
set up we've spent over three trillion dollars to only
watch our scores. And our performance decline we're doing something wrong.

Speaker 38 (01:48:48):
And, we, need to.

Speaker 3 (01:48:49):
Change yeah no doubt but the change that seems to
be successful are, these states, that there she said are going,
back to classical learning going. Back to, the basics you
know one of the big problems that we got into
in schools was this, desire to you know have kids
involved in all these sorts of extracurricular activities. HAVE them

(01:49:13):
involved in i don't, want to. Say sports because sports
sports can be a powerful motivator if. Done the, right
way you know if sports can be a motivator for
a child to pay attention in class and, to get
decent grades because if you don't, get the decent grades
you can't be, on the basketball team or you can't be,
on the football team or. Whatever the sport is but
we have so many other classes that don't have anything

(01:49:36):
to do, with a basic education at least not the
things you really need to be able. To do in
life you need to know math and. Science AND in history?
Dare i, say history you know if we could get
back to more basic learning, and concentrate on that then
you can start to ADD things. Back in i guess
but right now we can't. Get the Basics right seven,

know pay their bills, whatever it, may be you know
giving them money so they. CAN take, a vacation. I

(01:52:55):
mean they're things they're things that we do as parents
that you probably, LOOK back AND say i wish. I
hadn't DONE that i think i, just enabled, them to
you know to keep doing. WHAT they were doing i
got played or whatever. The case may be but it's
very hard to say. NO to, your kids i mean there's.
No doubt about that it's a very very. Hard THING
to do but i was asking for some examples of,

(01:53:16):
people you may know friends, or relatives or whatever things
that they're doing or have done, to enable their children
and it's been pretty hard for most of. Us, TO
articulate it.

Speaker 33 (01:53:24):
Jimmy i feel like there is a fine line between
helping a child.

Speaker 3 (01:53:31):
And, enabling a child? Yeah where's the line so where?
Is that fine line it's got. To be somewhere RIGHT
and the people i feel sorry for are the people
who can't seem to find the line and to draw The,
line and. SAY okay, That's it i mean i'm not.

Speaker 4 (01:55:22):
Fifty nine in bound at the loop. IS always a problem.

Speaker 3 (01:55:25):
Ktrh time saving traffic. Connect, on the ten well you
don't have to worry about red light, cameras in most
places but there is a bill In Front of the
texas senate that would bring back sort of, the red
light cameras but a little. Little different angle here it'd
be red light red light. Cameras on school, buses in

(01:55:48):
other words the people who ignore, when that you know
stop arm comes down and. The red light's flashing you
Know you're supposed to. You're supposed to stop you're supposed
to give room until the school bus has been unloaded
and then. Be on your way but there are people who,
routinely don't, see it ignore it whatever, you want to
say and so they're looking at this as a potential

(01:56:10):
way to maybe. Cut down on that i'm not, sure it's,
gonna work but okay let's talk about it For A
second With Mitch, little former, Ken Paxton defense attorney Texas
state representative from District Sixty. FIVE in north texas i
know you're. Opposed to the bill why do you have a, problem, With,
this bill. Sir, hey good morning well there's no doubt
that there are problems going. On throughout the state people

(01:56:32):
just blowing through school. Buses that, are Stopped in Fact
In Midlands where speaker tom, kratick offered the bill he's
had a couple of. Fatalities in his district the question
is how do we resolve it.

Speaker 38 (01:56:45):
As a state government so what's been proposed is that
we allow these swing arms stop like cameras to help
write tickets or citations to people. Who blow through, Them,
the problem is jimmy Is A company called Bus. Patrol
out of florida have?

Speaker 3 (01:57:00):
You heard of them i've.

Speaker 38 (01:57:01):
Not, Heard Of Them no so bus patrol is owned
by a series of family offices. And private equity companies
it Is. Based out of virginia they Implemented their system
in florida as soon As the state of florida legalized
these swing arm cameras and, In, the first week jimmy
they issued.

Speaker 3 (01:57:19):
Eleven five.

Speaker 38 (01:57:20):
Hundred. Citations holy moment problem, and the problem is, and
wait for it this isn't. Even the good part it's
very difficult to challenge these because most municipal courts don't
have a system that's set up to try cases where
people actually were. Videoed and cited wrongly but Would You
believe that bus patrol and these other companies that, set

(01:57:43):
up these systems they receive seventy percent of the money
from every citation, from now until perpetuity to the point
where they're making like a million Dollars A month in
miami dade out.

Speaker 3 (01:57:56):
Of the school.

Speaker 38 (01:57:56):
System it's truly amazing here's here's. The best part Though.
As soon as florida so There's A lady named vicky
lopez who's A. State representative in florida as soon as,
they implemented the system her son Went And worked for
bus patrol And Began basically. Lobbying minami dade schools and
People Are incensed in miami dade Schools or in The

(01:58:19):
miami area in florida because they're saying. They've been sited
wrong there's a Class, action lawsuit in florida there's a
Class Action. Lawsuit in new york and so the big
question we have is do we turn over basically the
public offers to, a company like that who's going to
be rating the pockets of.

Speaker 3 (01:58:37):
People, who live here okay so, they're writing some. Tickets
some bad, TICKETS that sounds like i mean you. Write
that it's herdedly there's that many people, on a monthly
basis they're passing. School buses that way so if they're
obviously doing, it to generate income and it's generating a,
whole lot of income what idea, would, you offer up
sir that might make it a little easier to enforce

(01:58:57):
making sure that we have people who are respecting these
these stop lights on these school, buses without you know
having some sort of a system that sort, of spies on,
them if, YOU will you know I think.

Speaker 38 (01:59:10):
It's a i think there are good reasons to increase
the penalties for doing such a thing for when. People
ARE actually CAUGHT but i don't i don't see the
the incentive being there for, this significant wealth, transfer because
you know while while some people be okay riding a
two hundred and twenty dollars check or two hundred dollars

(01:59:30):
check on, a citation like that a lot of people
won't and they'll be stuck with it for.

Speaker 3 (01:59:33):
A very long time it's.

Speaker 38 (01:59:36):
It's actually quite PREDATORY the biggest complaint i had is
they're taking seventy.

Speaker 3 (01:59:40):
Percent, of, the, Cash yeah yeah yeah so it's not really,
beant at the beginning not really benefitting the schools, in
this particular case and it doesn't sound like it's done
anything really to change behavior. At, this point either mitch. Thanks,
for joining. Us, yeah appreciate. It yeah. Thank you You
Bet That Is Texas. State representative mitch little y'all. Have
a great day, see you tomorrow morning. Right daarly at
five i'll see the same AFTER four on the AM.
