Scott VORDIEZ.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
I don't generally comment on the paid advertisements on this station,
but I feel the need to compel. Not usually on
the radio, I mean sometimes I do, but I feel
compelled to address the commercial that just aired, paid for
by the Kambala Harris for President campaign the first thing
(00:22):
that I'm going to get. And I haven't cracked open
the Zonker's custom woods inbox over the last minute to see.
But I imagine there'll be people who say, I can't.
These are people who are maybe not inclined to vote
for Vice President Harris for a promotion, so they're going
to reach out to me and say, I can't believe
(00:44):
that KFAB, the station where I listen to Rush Limbaugh
every day. Like Rush Limbaugh hasn't been on the station
for a few years. I listened to Rush Limbaugh and
Husker football on KFAB every day and I have for
seventy eight years since I turned forty. And I can't
believe that my kfaby would take the money and air
(01:11):
that commercial for Kamala Harris for President. Yeah, here's the thing.
If if we don't, if we if we air a
commercial for Trump for President, which by the way, have we.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
We should you know now that you mention it. I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I think we have. It's the Clay and Buck Show,
but you know so I don't. But if we, if we,
if someone comes to us, who is you know, a
advertising anything that isn't illegal, Kamala Harris as president. I know,
I know, I hear you. But that's that's an opinion.
(01:57):
It's not so if anyone comes to us and says,
I would like to advertise on your radio station something
that's not illegal. And there's also a few other concerns
related to exactly what's being advertised and how and so forth.
There have beens commercials in the history this radio station
where I said, I think that the way that that
particular product or service is being offered is an affront
to our community standards in the station, and we've got
(02:18):
it changed or taken off the air. That takes a
bit of an undertaking, but it is worth it in
some instances. But if we don't air those ads, then
we get sued. I've checked with our corporate lawyers here
at iHeartMedia, and it turns out they don't like getting sued.
(02:42):
So you don't say, yeah, they do not prefer it,
so we have to. And at the same time, if
the Harris campaign for the presidency wants to spend a
bunch of money on this radio station to support our
with their paid advertisements, well that's that's that's it's It's
(03:04):
an interesting decision and one that I welcome. That's fine.
You know, I say this a lot some people don't
believe me, but I don't work for the Trump campaign.
I don't work for the Republican National Party. I don't
have a cheerleader's outfit on I talk about that which
I see which is going on either on the streets
(03:25):
or in the nation or in the world. I give
you my thoughts on it, but at no point do
I take any of this personally. No matter who wins
the presidency this November, I'm not gonna like not like
wake up the next morning optimistic for you know, the
(03:45):
fact that we can have a decent life as Americans
living in the greatest country on Earth, no matter who
wins the presidency. And there are a lot of people
who have been trained in condition that their lives the
sun rises and sets based on who's in the White House,
and if that person gets in the White House, well,
that's it. I guess we're done. Not to say that
(04:07):
I don't have concerns. We talk about this kind of
thing all the time, but the fact that some people
have made it such a fiber of who they are
as to who the president is, I I just choose
not to get that bitter and angry about things. Sometimes
I get bitter and angry about some things, but generally
(04:29):
I don't. It's funny because I said this on the
radio the other day and decided to make it a
Facebook post yesterday. You know, we've got the signs going
up around especially midtown Omaha. It's a white sign with
a blue circle in the middle of it, and it's
to signify that Nebraska's second congressional district is a blue
dot and we can give an electoral College vote that
(04:50):
might decide the presidency to Kamala Harris if Nebraska's second
district votes blue. And so that's what the sign is
supposed to be. And I was talking about it in
the radio and I joked that it's a I think
I said, it's not an indication that swingers live in
that house. That's the pineapple out there, like some sort
(05:11):
of pineapple decoration. Or a certain colored rock or whatever,
and we did a little bit on it, and I thought, eh,
let's post on it. So I posted on Facebook, and
I don't remember how I phrased it, but I said,
there's a new indication as to whether you have swingers
in your neighborhood. The pineapple's out now. It's a white
sign with a blue circle in the middle of it
(05:32):
to indicate that they are swingers and they are ready
to swing. And of course a lot of people had
a lot of interesting comments in the wake of it.
It turned into a heated political battle among some people
who chose to do that. I'm not your babysitter or
your mommy, so I didn't delete anything because it didn't
involve threats or bad language. But I still got a
(05:54):
message from some like a private message saying, I can't
believe that you would take shots at people who live
in our community with such vile, ugly political rhetoric. And
I said, like, lady, it's a joke.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
It's also not political. I know what you said.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
It's a joke. It's a it's a wink and a nod,
funny ha ha joke. This person did not take it
as such. It's all right, that's fine, thanks for letting
me know. But I know people get so ready to
fight if they think that their political value system and
(06:34):
tied to an individual candidate is being threatened, and they're
ready to just start fighting. And I don't live my
life like that. The only time I'm ever willing to
just start fighting or ripping someone's head off is really
just when I'm driving amongst you people, because you're the
worst drivers in the world. But once I get out
of the car, like it's all cool, I generally don't
go that route.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Do you think it's a little bit different I'm around
when you look at the difference between even eight or
ten or fifteen years ago or four.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Yes, I think it's dumber now. When Trump was running
the first time against Hillary, there were all these people
that said, if Trump gets elected, then this is going
to happen, and that's gonna happen, where World War three,
four and five are all going to break out under
his watch, and the dollar is going to go down
to be only worth a like a farthing, and all
(07:29):
the gay and black people will all be murdered and
Trump won and none of those things happen, In fact,
quite the opposite. So we have a four year Petrie
dish there that's been created. We can take a look
at it and go, here's what happened during the Trump presidency.
Yet here we are four years later, and these same
(07:52):
people are like, if Trump gets elected, well, but basically
that ad we just had, if Trump gets elected, all
these horrible things are going to happen. Like you were
alive right when he was president. I don't know what
you're talking about. So when you say, do you think
it's different now, yeah, I think it's dumber. I think
you could get people to believe if that man gets
elected president, these horrible things are going to happen before
(08:16):
he'd ever been president, but now he has those things
didn't happen, and to tell people, yeah, but this time,
that's just dumb.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
So well, you can label it dumb, or you can
label it whatever you want. But it is different.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Oh, it's always going to be different. But really it's
all it's a little different. It's one different face this time,
but it's all the same thing. And that is as
soon as you, as a Republican say I want to
run for president, even if you'd previously been friends with
liberals and you'd been friendly with that. I mean Trump
(08:55):
used to hang out with a bunch of Libs, media
darling among celebrity and once he decided Republican candidate for president,
he was hitler. Mitt Romney comes from Democratic roots and
he worked with Democrats in Massachusetts. Once he decided I'm
a Republican running for president, He's the worst thing ever.
(09:18):
McCain Bush, it's all the same thing. So yeah, right now,
the target's Donald Trump. In four years, it'll be Donald
Trump Junior. I don't know now now, Now, now, let's
address this very important conversation that has popped up here
in this presidential election. Here's Vice President Kamala Harris McDonald's.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
I was a student.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
When I was working at McDonald's. There was not a
family relying on me to pay the rent, put food
on the table, and keep the bills paid by the end.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Of the month.
Speaker 4 (09:57):
But the reality of McDonald's is that a majority of
the folks who are working there today are relying on
that income to sustain a household and a family.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Okay, first of all, is that last part too. A
majority of people who work at McDonald's are relying on
that income to sustain a household in a family. I
don't know. I know when I go to McDonald's, and
you can tell by looking at me, I love McDonald's.
(10:30):
I'm not shaped like Grimace yet, but I am trending,
so I love McDonald's. I do see that. You know,
you got kids in there, and you got retired people
in there. I don't think that any of them are
working to try and sustain a household in a family.
But then you see some adults working in there, I
(10:50):
don't know, maybe it's the manager making a pretty good living.
I don't think they're working for minimum wage in there.
And if they just started and they like, I need
to climb this ladder, I gotta start somewhere. I will
gladly take a minimum wage position and quickly work my
way up, because you're gonna find no one's a better
employee than me. You don't stay a minimum wage. And
(11:13):
at no point it's the minimum wage ever supposed to
be something in this country that's a living wage. But
to the other point she makes there where she says
I worked at McDonald's. This has now become a bit
of a debate, now, hasn't it. Are you familiar at
all with this little give and take on this point.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Not the give and take, but I know that's what
she said.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Kamala Harris says, I worked at McDonald's. Someone decided I
never would I mean, even if I worked for the
Trump campaign, which, as I said a moment ago, I
do not if I worked for the Trump campaign. I
don't know that I would research that one, like, how
am I gonna? Why would I dispute that? Well, someone
(12:00):
decided to check. They said, it's funny, she's never before
mentioned she worked at McDonald's, and they decided to start
digging a little bit. And what has been found here
is that there's nothing that proves that she worked at McDonald's. Now,
what the liberal media has said is, oh, these maga
(12:24):
extremists are calling Kamala Harris a liar by when she
said she worked at McDonald's. They said, we can't find
any proof of that because she didn't include it on
the resume when she was applying to be a law clerk,
or something makes these idiots think that you would put
your experience working at McDonald's on a resume and employment
(12:46):
history when you're trying to work in law. That's true.
I don't think that anyone would probably do that. But
going back to now how she's that conversation was with
the Service industry Union, and one of the hits on
Kamala Harris is, depending on who she's talking to, she
(13:07):
tries to be that person or that crowd, and so
much so that her inflection and her dialect seems to change.
So now she's talking to the service union. I worked
at McDonald's, and people are like, is that true? And
they started looking. Now it's kind of become a thing
(13:27):
in her campaign. It came up at the Democratic National Convention.
Here's someone who knows what people are going through in
this country. She worked at McDonald's. What's interesting, though, is
that she'd written two books about herself and her life.
It never came up in either book. Now are you
going to do to vote an entire chapter? I don't
(13:48):
know that I would, But if it's such a big
deal now, it didn't get a line when I worked
at McDonald I mean, it wasn't considered to be political
capital then, either because it just an oversight or because
it didn't happen. And they've even reached out to like
which McDonald's. Let's take a look at the employment records
(14:09):
that this restaurant would have. They've tried to identify a
couple of McDonald's that would have been around the area
where she worked. She said it was between her freshman
and sophomore year at college. I must have been this
one or that one. No one has any idea. No
family member has said I remember when she worked there.
No manager, no longtime employee, no employment record, no resume,
(14:32):
no book that she's written about herself. At no point
did it ever come up until suddenly she was talking
to the service union and then suddenly she'd worked at McDonald's.
I don't know. Maybe she did, maybe she didn't. Is
it dumb to even try and drill down and figure
something like this out? Of course it is. But this
whole election is dumb. Do I think it's funny. Absolutely,
(14:56):
I think it's funny. Do I believe her? I I
don't know. And it's not like there's a lot of
no offense. It's not like there's a lot of people
out there trying to, you know, get a job or
a date by bragging about their working at McDonald's. Again,
no offense. But it's just interesting as the people are
(15:18):
trying to determine like, Okay, who is it we're voting
for here?
Speaker 3 (15:23):
Well, maybe she only worked there for like a day.
Maybe she did, it didn't work out.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Maybe it didn't work out. Maybe she was a spy
working for Burger King speaking of spies under the Biden
Harris watch. That is that is not just an odd
comment I just made. There's a story about it, and
I'll give it to you in two minutes.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Scott Voice News Radio eleven ten KFAB.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Holly emails says, I'm sick of people saying McDonald's is
not enough to provide for your twelve kids. It's mainly
a place for people to get into and start into
a workforce, teenagers, younger adults. And if that's the case,
how come no one ever mentioned stockers or cashiers at
grocery stores. If you like the place and work your
way up, you can make a great living, But not
(16:15):
when you start, or even sometime after you start. Come on, people,
it's called common sense. That's from Ollie sent to Scott
ATKFAB dot com. Lucy or MIC's on, did you want
to say something before I moved into a different direction?
Or you just leave your mic on?
Speaker 3 (16:30):
It's off.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
It can't be off. I just heard you. Everyone just
heard you.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Well, it was on when I said it's off, and
now it's off on.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Don't turn it off the whole time. You're gonna love
this story. Okay, it's on conspiracy theory. Lucy is going
to love this story. Under the Biden Harris watch and
federal prosecutors are looking into this, which you could also
say is under the Biden hair administration and watch. But
(17:02):
it's interesting something happened during the pandemic other than everything
you just thought of, a lot of Internet companies, a
lot of it, including cybersecurity companies, were saying, like, look,
you can work remotely, and there got to be this
little scheme that's set up where someone would someone would
(17:25):
apply for the job using a stolen identity, and they
would even use like a middleman to like there are
laptop farms run by middlemen operating here in America who
would then route the work to people in other parts
of the world, specifically North Korea. And if North Korea
(17:47):
is involved, then you know that China is involved. So
now you've got spies or people working in foreign lands
who have these IT jobs. They're running the other software
through a laptop farm here in America to log into
internal company servers from overseas, especially if you're working for
(18:09):
cybersecurity companies. Now you have access to sensitive information. They've
used it to launch cyber attacks or steal intellectual property,
some of these things where hospitals have been held hostage,
like in ransomware attacks. I wouldn't be surprised to learn
(18:31):
this is happening as a result of this scheme, because
federal prosecutors have announced fraud charges against several people who
have helped from America, individuals with ties to North Korea.
China camp be far behind secure these jobs, with over
three hundred US companies generating seven million dollars back to
(18:53):
North Korea. And they say, according to the story in
the Wall Street Journal, as just a small part of
an ongoing scheme that's seen North Korea pull in hundreds
of millions of dollars a year to fund its weapons program.
They can't do that because of international sanctions, So they
(19:14):
just dispatch a bunch of spies working in it, taking
advantage of stolen identities and remote working opportunities to say yeah,
I'll work for your company. Companies hire them, and they've
got access to all of this stuff. In fact, one
of these cybersecurity companies says, yeah, we realize this is
(19:37):
embarrassing for us, that this has been happening under our watch.
We were paying these people to give them access to
sensitive information of our clients.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
I don't understand how a company hires an employee without
ever meeting with them.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Oh, just remotely, you know, they'll meet remotely. It looks
like the IP address is coming from America. They have
all the right credentials to it. And it says that
these people end up working and part of their job
is cyber attacks stealing intellectual property. And then the story
(20:14):
says and sometimes they even provide actual IT support so
they can get a paycheck. So when you've been you know,
logging in with someone and some you know, you don't
know who they are, and they're like, yeah, we need
your credit card number and you just give it over
because these are the IT people who knows who you've
(20:34):
given it to in some instances.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Okay, So if IT jobs are that much in demand,
then this that they're hiring people they don't even know
for sure who they are they think they do, then
they're not doing their due diligence because even if they
steal identity, you know, I would think that people in it,
even if they're just in management, they're not actual programmers.
(20:57):
I would think that they'd be smart enough to know
that they were going to be giving sensitive information to
these new hires and that they're going to do background checks.
Oh so they do a background check and it's the
background of the stolen identity. Okay, well how do you
know then? But then you have to you have to
arrange a meeting. You have to when you're when you're
(21:20):
dealing with information like this, you are reckless and you
should be held accountable for this.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
I don't disagree with anything you said, but look around
you in any sector of employment right now, almost no
matter what it is, with certain exceptions among individuals, but
how many times you go into a business and you're
it's clear like, oh, no one in here cares anymore.
(21:51):
That what makes this particular segment of industry different from
anything else. There are just some people who just have
a whole bunch who gives a rip. Not my job
to do all of this. I just rubber stamp and
do this. That's someone else's department. And everyone thinks that way,
and stuff like this happens now. Hopefully they see it
(22:13):
and go we shouldn't allow this to happen anymore. And
good for the federal investigators for rooting it out several
years too late. This has been going on for four years.
Hundreds of millions of dollars that US companies are, despite
international sanctions, are paying for Kim Jong uh to be
able to try and build missiles, which thankfully, they're really
(22:37):
terrible at building missiles over there. They're basically like those
balsa wood rockets you to shoot off as a kid.
But they certainly got the money to keep trying. Now,
someone just asked Vladimir Putin, who do you want to
see when the presidential election in America. He gave an answer.
I'll tell you what he said after a Fox News
update next Scott Voice, we just had to someone be
(23:01):
able to ask Russian President of Vladidimir Putin, who do
you want to win the American presidency? Putin said he
wants Kamala Harris to be the next president of the
United States because she has an infectious laugh. He did
(23:23):
not say that he one hundred percent. I promise you
I'm not joking. Now. The South China Morning Post again,
wonderful friends over there, Russia, China, Iran, Syria, North Korea.
(23:43):
He said that with what the South China Morning Post
described as a wry smile, Politico said he was smirking.
She said, quote, she laughs so expressively and infectiously, that
means that she is doing well.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
That's that is the most Putin's troll of Putin I've
ever seen.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
And then he said Trump has imposed more sanctions on
Russia than any president has imposed before, and if Harris
is doing well, then perhaps she will refrain from doing
this kind of thing. So he says, I want Kamala
Harris to be president, makes fun of her laugh, I'm
(24:30):
a sarcastic jerk as well a game nos game, and
then he points out it's better for Russia if Kamala
Harris is the next president of America because Trump has
imposed these sanctions. Again, when did Russia attack Ukraine under
Biden and Harris? And under Obama and Biden? When did
(24:55):
Russia sit still and look pretty under Trump? Can't wait
for this debate on Tuesday again. The next News Radio
eleven ten kfab debate viewing party. It's Tuesday night. The
debate starts at eight you'll be able to hear the
presidential debate. If you can't make it to the viewing party,
(25:15):
you can hear it right here on news radio eleven
ten KFAB as well as pre and post game with
Fox News Radio. But if you're so inclined to join
us and you've never been to one of these, allow
me to invite you. The first thing people think is
do I need to make a reservation or buy tickets. No.
Ref's Sports Bar and Grill ninety seventh and Giles is
(25:39):
hosting this. This is the first time that REFS has
hosted a debate viewing party. And here's what it is.
REFS has got TVs all over the place. It's a
big sports bar. So whether you're sitting and you walk in,
you can either sit over here in the big room
to the left, you can sit over here in the
big party room the right, you can sit at the bar.
(26:01):
No matter where you sit, you're going to be able
to see a TV. Every TV will have the debate on,
and I actually made them like it's like just humor me.
If you would, can we test the sound system. I
want to make sure it's good quality sound so that
not everyone, not only can everyone see I want everyone
to be able to hear. And with people there eating
(26:23):
their lunch, Rory cranked up the sound there at ref
Sports Bar and Grill, and he said, and that was
just part way as everyone's like, what is going on? Yeah,
it's loud enough, it's clear enough. Guy has spent some
time and money on that sound system and I appreciate that.
So I'm so glad to be out at Ref's Sports
(26:46):
Bar and Grill Tuesday night. The debate starts at dight.
I do encourage you to show up early. Grab some food.
It's a full I said, bar and grill, so great
menu at Refs, and quality beverages as well, So get
a little bite to eat, have a beverage or two.
I do not recommend playing a drinking game, nor do
(27:08):
does KFAB for legal purposes, sanction such a thing. If
you were to take a drink. Every time Trump tried
to interrupt Kamala with the microphone off or Kamala laughed
and putin said, there it is. There's my girl. That
you could have alcohol poisoning within the first twenty minutes.
So we do not sanction such a thing. Here's what
(27:30):
we do sanction. You are encouraged to laugh, cheer, boo, cry,
whatever the spirit moves you to do. The only rule
is don't keep yelling and shooting off your mouth in
such a way as that people can't hear the debate.
I mean there's moments of pauses and all this stuff
where you can be like, ah, you know, people do that,
(27:54):
or laugh or there's groaning, and it's and you're encouraged
to do that. We treat this debate like a husker game.
Go in there, cheer for your side, boo the other side,
but don't go in there looking to fight with anybody,
and don't basically just don't be a jerk hole. And
(28:14):
it's all good. And if you're thinking, how is it
that with these candidates in this political climate, we don't
have people in there acting like jerk holes. I don't know,
we just never have. We've been doing these debate viewing
parties for I mean since the presidential election of two
thousand and eight. That was the first election cycle after
(28:37):
I got here.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
I was there. I remember that.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
I think our first one was at Bruski's, I believe it.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
I think it was wingson Rings, wasn't it Obama Romney?
Speaker 2 (28:50):
No, Yes, no, not in two thousand and eight, McCain
and Obama two thousand and eight, and I think our
first one was at Bruski's wesqu Street. I might be wrong,
but we've had a.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Lot of them, and this time I'm probably thinking of twelve.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
That would be twelve, yes this time. My favorite moment
was twenty sixteen. We had a young Hispanic girl, a
young like early twenties, and we were doing some Facebook
live stuff there talking to people, like an hour or
so before the debate started, and I asked her, I said, yeah,
(29:29):
what brings you out to be a part of this tonight.
She's like, well, I tell you what I'm not. I
don't support Trump. I said, that's cool. Why not? She goes.
He says, I'm looking at all these people here. I'm
afraid they're going to build a wall around me. It's
so funny, and we had a great time, always have.
(29:51):
They're really fun events. Now Vice President Harris has now
finally accepted the rules of this debate. The thing that
she was pushing for and the thing that Trump was
saying he also wanted, and his team was like, you bet,
mister president, we'll get that done for you. Meanwhile, I
know they were going to ABC News going please, absolutely not,
(30:15):
We're not going to do the debate if this. What
Kamala Harris wanted was for the microphones to be live
the entire time, because she thinks it works out better
for her for Trump to be interrupting, talking, incessantly making
his comments and letting the American people hear all of that,
because if they can say Trump is bullying this woman
(30:38):
here on stage, then that's going to play better for Kamala.
And so she knew it. So she was fighting to
have the microphones on, and the Trump team knows that too.
That's why I believe they were secretly fighting to make
sure the microphones were off like they were for Trump Biden.
The microphones were muted. Now that didn't stop Trump from
(31:00):
the entire time, which Biden's team said, well, yeah, the
President was rattled because Trump wouldn't shut up. Now, the
big moment in twenty twenty was when microphones were live.
Trump wouldn't shut up and Biden finally says, well you
shut up, man, and that got to be a big moment.
They want something like that again. Harris said, we're not
(31:23):
going to do the debate. Unless the microphones are live,
and ABC had already said no. We both sides had
previously agreed to the same rules as the CNN debate,
which included the muted microphones, and so just yesterday Harris's
team said all right, fine, we'll do it now. They
what they said was that, well, in order for Americans
(31:47):
to really involve themselves in this process of democracy, if
we have this rule change, then Trump's not going to
show up, and we'll be the ones to concede. Point
because if the American people can hear this and Trump
won't show up, well, we think it's better to have
(32:08):
these candidates up there so the American people can get
a real choice. So we're gonna be the better people
here to You can position it however you want. I
just can't wait to watch this Tuesday night, eight o'clock
Speaker 1 (32:26):
Scott Voy's Mornings nine to eleven on news radio eleven
ten KFAB
Scott VORDIEZ.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
I don't generally comment on the paid advertisements on this station,
but I feel the need to compel. Not usually on
the radio, I mean sometimes I do, but I feel
compelled to address the commercial that just aired, paid for
by the Kambala Harris for President campaign the first thing
(00:22):
that I'm going to get. And I haven't cracked open
the Zonker's custom woods inbox over the last minute to see.
But I imagine there'll be people who say, I can't.
These are people who are maybe not inclined to vote
for Vice President Harris for a promotion, so they're going
to reach out to me and say, I can't believe
(00:44):
that KFAB, the station where I listen to Rush Limbaugh
every day. Like Rush Limbaugh hasn't been on the station
for a few years. I listened to Rush Limbaugh and
Husker football on KFAB every day and I have for
seventy eight years since I turned forty. And I can't
believe that my kfaby would take the money and air
(01:11):
that commercial for Kamala Harris for President. Yeah, here's the thing.
If if we don't, if we if we air a
commercial for Trump for President, which by the way, have we.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
We should you know now that you mention it. I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I think we have. It's the Clay and Buck Show,
but you know so I don't. But if we, if we,
if someone comes to us, who is you know, a
advertising anything that isn't illegal, Kamala Harris as president. I know,
I know, I hear you. But that's that's an opinion.
(01:57):
It's not so if anyone comes to us and says,
I would like to advertise on your radio station something
that's not illegal. And there's also a few other concerns
related to exactly what's being advertised and how and so forth.
There have beens commercials in the history this radio station
where I said, I think that the way that that
particular product or service is being offered is an affront
to our community standards in the station, and we've got
(02:18):
it changed or taken off the air. That takes a
bit of an undertaking, but it is worth it in
some instances. But if we don't air those ads, then
we get sued. I've checked with our corporate lawyers here
at iHeartMedia, and it turns out they don't like getting sued.
(02:42):
So you don't say, yeah, they do not prefer it,
so we have to. And at the same time, if
the Harris campaign for the presidency wants to spend a
bunch of money on this radio station to support our
with their paid advertisements, well that's that's that's it's It's
(03:04):
an interesting decision and one that I welcome. That's fine.
You know, I say this a lot some people don't
believe me, but I don't work for the Trump campaign.
I don't work for the Republican National Party. I don't
have a cheerleader's outfit on I talk about that which
I see which is going on either on the streets
(03:25):
or in the nation or in the world. I give
you my thoughts on it, but at no point do
I take any of this personally. No matter who wins
the presidency this November, I'm not gonna like not like
wake up the next morning optimistic for you know, the
(03:45):
fact that we can have a decent life as Americans
living in the greatest country on Earth, no matter who
wins the presidency. And there are a lot of people
who have been trained in condition that their lives the
sun rises and sets based on who's in the White House,
and if that person gets in the White House, well,
that's it. I guess we're done. Not to say that
(04:07):
I don't have concerns. We talk about this kind of
thing all the time, but the fact that some people
have made it such a fiber of who they are
as to who the president is, I I just choose
not to get that bitter and angry about things. Sometimes
I get bitter and angry about some things, but generally
(04:29):
I don't. It's funny because I said this on the
radio the other day and decided to make it a
Facebook post yesterday. You know, we've got the signs going
up around especially midtown Omaha. It's a white sign with
a blue circle in the middle of it, and it's
to signify that Nebraska's second congressional district is a blue
dot and we can give an electoral College vote that
(04:50):
might decide the presidency to Kamala Harris if Nebraska's second
district votes blue. And so that's what the sign is
supposed to be. And I was talking about it in
the radio and I joked that it's a I think
I said, it's not an indication that swingers live in
that house. That's the pineapple out there, like some sort
(05:11):
of pineapple decoration. Or a certain colored rock or whatever,
and we did a little bit on it, and I thought, eh,
let's post on it. So I posted on Facebook, and
I don't remember how I phrased it, but I said,
there's a new indication as to whether you have swingers
in your neighborhood. The pineapple's out now. It's a white
sign with a blue circle in the middle of it
(05:32):
to indicate that they are swingers and they are ready
to swing. And of course a lot of people had
a lot of interesting comments in the wake of it.
It turned into a heated political battle among some people
who chose to do that. I'm not your babysitter or
your mommy, so I didn't delete anything because it didn't
involve threats or bad language. But I still got a
(05:54):
message from some like a private message saying, I can't
believe that you would take shots at people who live
in our community with such vile, ugly political rhetoric. And
I said, like, lady, it's a joke.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
It's also not political. I know what you said.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
It's a joke. It's a it's a wink and a nod,
funny ha ha joke. This person did not take it
as such. It's all right, that's fine, thanks for letting
me know. But I know people get so ready to
fight if they think that their political value system and
(06:34):
tied to an individual candidate is being threatened, and they're
ready to just start fighting. And I don't live my
life like that. The only time I'm ever willing to
just start fighting or ripping someone's head off is really
just when I'm driving amongst you people, because you're the
worst drivers in the world. But once I get out
of the car, like it's all cool, I generally don't
go that route.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Do you think it's a little bit different I'm around
when you look at the difference between even eight or
ten or fifteen years ago or four.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Yes, I think it's dumber now. When Trump was running
the first time against Hillary, there were all these people
that said, if Trump gets elected, then this is going
to happen, and that's gonna happen, where World War three,
four and five are all going to break out under
his watch, and the dollar is going to go down
to be only worth a like a farthing, and all
(07:29):
the gay and black people will all be murdered and
Trump won and none of those things happen, In fact,
quite the opposite. So we have a four year Petrie
dish there that's been created. We can take a look
at it and go, here's what happened during the Trump presidency.
Yet here we are four years later, and these same
(07:52):
people are like, if Trump gets elected, well, but basically
that ad we just had, if Trump gets elected, all
these horrible things are going to happen. Like you were
alive right when he was president. I don't know what
you're talking about. So when you say, do you think
it's different now, yeah, I think it's dumber. I think
you could get people to believe if that man gets
elected president, these horrible things are going to happen before
(08:16):
he'd ever been president, but now he has those things
didn't happen, and to tell people, yeah, but this time,
that's just dumb.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
So well, you can label it dumb, or you can
label it whatever you want. But it is different.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Oh, it's always going to be different. But really it's
all it's a little different. It's one different face this time,
but it's all the same thing. And that is as
soon as you, as a Republican say I want to
run for president, even if you'd previously been friends with
liberals and you'd been friendly with that. I mean Trump
(08:55):
used to hang out with a bunch of Libs, media
darling among celebrity and once he decided Republican candidate for president,
he was hitler. Mitt Romney comes from Democratic roots and
he worked with Democrats in Massachusetts. Once he decided I'm
a Republican running for president, He's the worst thing ever.
(09:18):
McCain Bush, it's all the same thing. So yeah, right now,
the target's Donald Trump. In four years, it'll be Donald
Trump Junior. I don't know now now, Now, now, let's
address this very important conversation that has popped up here
in this presidential election. Here's Vice President Kamala Harris McDonald's.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
I was a student.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
When I was working at McDonald's. There was not a
family relying on me to pay the rent, put food
on the table, and keep the bills paid by the end.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Of the month.
Speaker 4 (09:57):
But the reality of McDonald's is that a majority of
the folks who are working there today are relying on
that income to sustain a household and a family.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Okay, first of all, is that last part too. A
majority of people who work at McDonald's are relying on
that income to sustain a household in a family. I
don't know. I know when I go to McDonald's, and
you can tell by looking at me, I love McDonald's.
(10:30):
I'm not shaped like Grimace yet, but I am trending,
so I love McDonald's. I do see that. You know,
you got kids in there, and you got retired people
in there. I don't think that any of them are
working to try and sustain a household in a family.
But then you see some adults working in there, I
(10:50):
don't know, maybe it's the manager making a pretty good living.
I don't think they're working for minimum wage in there.
And if they just started and they like, I need
to climb this ladder, I gotta start somewhere. I will
gladly take a minimum wage position and quickly work my
way up, because you're gonna find no one's a better
employee than me. You don't stay a minimum wage. And
(11:13):
at no point it's the minimum wage ever supposed to
be something in this country that's a living wage. But
to the other point she makes there where she says
I worked at McDonald's. This has now become a bit
of a debate, now, hasn't it. Are you familiar at
all with this little give and take on this point.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Not the give and take, but I know that's what
she said.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Kamala Harris says, I worked at McDonald's. Someone decided I
never would I mean, even if I worked for the
Trump campaign, which, as I said a moment ago, I
do not if I worked for the Trump campaign. I
don't know that I would research that one, like, how
am I gonna? Why would I dispute that? Well, someone
(12:00):
decided to check. They said, it's funny, she's never before
mentioned she worked at McDonald's, and they decided to start
digging a little bit. And what has been found here
is that there's nothing that proves that she worked at McDonald's. Now,
what the liberal media has said is, oh, these maga
(12:24):
extremists are calling Kamala Harris a liar by when she
said she worked at McDonald's. They said, we can't find
any proof of that because she didn't include it on
the resume when she was applying to be a law clerk,
or something makes these idiots think that you would put
your experience working at McDonald's on a resume and employment
(12:46):
history when you're trying to work in law. That's true.
I don't think that anyone would probably do that. But
going back to now how she's that conversation was with
the Service industry Union, and one of the hits on
Kamala Harris is, depending on who she's talking to, she
(13:07):
tries to be that person or that crowd, and so
much so that her inflection and her dialect seems to change.
So now she's talking to the service union. I worked
at McDonald's, and people are like, is that true? And
they started looking. Now it's kind of become a thing
(13:27):
in her campaign. It came up at the Democratic National Convention.
Here's someone who knows what people are going through in
this country. She worked at McDonald's. What's interesting, though, is
that she'd written two books about herself and her life.
It never came up in either book. Now are you
going to do to vote an entire chapter? I don't
(13:48):
know that I would, But if it's such a big
deal now, it didn't get a line when I worked
at McDonald I mean, it wasn't considered to be political
capital then, either because it just an oversight or because
it didn't happen. And they've even reached out to like
which McDonald's. Let's take a look at the employment records
(14:09):
that this restaurant would have. They've tried to identify a
couple of McDonald's that would have been around the area
where she worked. She said it was between her freshman
and sophomore year at college. I must have been this
one or that one. No one has any idea. No
family member has said I remember when she worked there.
No manager, no longtime employee, no employment record, no resume,
(14:32):
no book that she's written about herself. At no point
did it ever come up until suddenly she was talking
to the service union and then suddenly she'd worked at McDonald's.
I don't know. Maybe she did, maybe she didn't. Is
it dumb to even try and drill down and figure
something like this out? Of course it is. But this
whole election is dumb. Do I think it's funny. Absolutely,
(14:56):
I think it's funny. Do I believe her? I I
don't know. And it's not like there's a lot of
no offense. It's not like there's a lot of people
out there trying to, you know, get a job or
a date by bragging about their working at McDonald's. Again,
no offense. But it's just interesting as the people are
(15:18):
trying to determine like, Okay, who is it we're voting
for here?
Speaker 3 (15:23):
Well, maybe she only worked there for like a day.
Maybe she did, it didn't work out.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Maybe it didn't work out. Maybe she was a spy
working for Burger King speaking of spies under the Biden
Harris watch. That is that is not just an odd
comment I just made. There's a story about it, and
I'll give it to you in two minutes.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Scott Voice News Radio eleven ten KFAB.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Holly emails says, I'm sick of people saying McDonald's is
not enough to provide for your twelve kids. It's mainly
a place for people to get into and start into
a workforce, teenagers, younger adults. And if that's the case,
how come no one ever mentioned stockers or cashiers at
grocery stores. If you like the place and work your
way up, you can make a great living, But not
(16:15):
when you start, or even sometime after you start. Come on, people,
it's called common sense. That's from Ollie sent to Scott
ATKFAB dot com. Lucy or MIC's on, did you want
to say something before I moved into a different direction?
Or you just leave your mic on?
Speaker 3 (16:30):
It's off.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
It can't be off. I just heard you. Everyone just
heard you.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Well, it was on when I said it's off, and
now it's off on.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Don't turn it off the whole time. You're gonna love
this story. Okay, it's on conspiracy theory. Lucy is going
to love this story. Under the Biden Harris watch and
federal prosecutors are looking into this, which you could also
say is under the Biden hair administration and watch. But
(17:02):
it's interesting something happened during the pandemic other than everything
you just thought of, a lot of Internet companies, a
lot of it, including cybersecurity companies, were saying, like, look,
you can work remotely, and there got to be this
little scheme that's set up where someone would someone would
(17:25):
apply for the job using a stolen identity, and they
would even use like a middleman to like there are
laptop farms run by middlemen operating here in America who
would then route the work to people in other parts
of the world, specifically North Korea. And if North Korea
(17:47):
is involved, then you know that China is involved. So
now you've got spies or people working in foreign lands
who have these IT jobs. They're running the other software
through a laptop farm here in America to log into
internal company servers from overseas, especially if you're working for
(18:09):
cybersecurity companies. Now you have access to sensitive information. They've
used it to launch cyber attacks or steal intellectual property,
some of these things where hospitals have been held hostage,
like in ransomware attacks. I wouldn't be surprised to learn
(18:31):
this is happening as a result of this scheme, because
federal prosecutors have announced fraud charges against several people who
have helped from America, individuals with ties to North Korea.
China camp be far behind secure these jobs, with over
three hundred US companies generating seven million dollars back to
(18:53):
North Korea. And they say, according to the story in
the Wall Street Journal, as just a small part of
an ongoing scheme that's seen North Korea pull in hundreds
of millions of dollars a year to fund its weapons program.
They can't do that because of international sanctions, So they
(19:14):
just dispatch a bunch of spies working in it, taking
advantage of stolen identities and remote working opportunities to say yeah,
I'll work for your company. Companies hire them, and they've
got access to all of this stuff. In fact, one
of these cybersecurity companies says, yeah, we realize this is
(19:37):
embarrassing for us, that this has been happening under our watch.
We were paying these people to give them access to
sensitive information of our clients.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
I don't understand how a company hires an employee without
ever meeting with them.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Oh, just remotely, you know, they'll meet remotely. It looks
like the IP address is coming from America. They have
all the right credentials to it. And it says that
these people end up working and part of their job
is cyber attacks stealing intellectual property. And then the story
(20:14):
says and sometimes they even provide actual IT support so
they can get a paycheck. So when you've been you know,
logging in with someone and some you know, you don't
know who they are, and they're like, yeah, we need
your credit card number and you just give it over
because these are the IT people who knows who you've
(20:34):
given it to in some instances.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Okay, So if IT jobs are that much in demand,
then this that they're hiring people they don't even know
for sure who they are they think they do, then
they're not doing their due diligence because even if they
steal identity, you know, I would think that people in it,
even if they're just in management, they're not actual programmers.
(20:57):
I would think that they'd be smart enough to know
that they were going to be giving sensitive information to
these new hires and that they're going to do background checks.
Oh so they do a background check and it's the
background of the stolen identity. Okay, well how do you
know then? But then you have to you have to
arrange a meeting. You have to when you're when you're
(21:20):
dealing with information like this, you are reckless and you
should be held accountable for this.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
I don't disagree with anything you said, but look around
you in any sector of employment right now, almost no
matter what it is, with certain exceptions among individuals, but
how many times you go into a business and you're
it's clear like, oh, no one in here cares anymore.
(21:51):
That what makes this particular segment of industry different from
anything else. There are just some people who just have
a whole bunch who gives a rip. Not my job
to do all of this. I just rubber stamp and
do this. That's someone else's department. And everyone thinks that way,
and stuff like this happens now. Hopefully they see it
(22:13):
and go we shouldn't allow this to happen anymore. And
good for the federal investigators for rooting it out several
years too late. This has been going on for four years.
Hundreds of millions of dollars that US companies are, despite
international sanctions, are paying for Kim Jong uh to be
able to try and build missiles, which thankfully, they're really
(22:37):
terrible at building missiles over there. They're basically like those
balsa wood rockets you to shoot off as a kid.
But they certainly got the money to keep trying. Now,
someone just asked Vladimir Putin, who do you want to
see when the presidential election in America. He gave an answer.
I'll tell you what he said after a Fox News
update next Scott Voice, we just had to someone be
(23:01):
able to ask Russian President of Vladidimir Putin, who do
you want to win the American presidency? Putin said he
wants Kamala Harris to be the next president of the
United States because she has an infectious laugh. He did
(23:23):
not say that he one hundred percent. I promise you
I'm not joking. Now. The South China Morning Post again,
wonderful friends over there, Russia, China, Iran, Syria, North Korea.
(23:43):
He said that with what the South China Morning Post
described as a wry smile, Politico said he was smirking.
She said, quote, she laughs so expressively and infectiously, that
means that she is doing well.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
That's that is the most Putin's troll of Putin I've
ever seen.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
And then he said Trump has imposed more sanctions on
Russia than any president has imposed before, and if Harris
is doing well, then perhaps she will refrain from doing
this kind of thing. So he says, I want Kamala
Harris to be president, makes fun of her laugh, I'm
(24:30):
a sarcastic jerk as well a game nos game, and
then he points out it's better for Russia if Kamala
Harris is the next president of America because Trump has
imposed these sanctions. Again, when did Russia attack Ukraine under
Biden and Harris? And under Obama and Biden? When did
(24:55):
Russia sit still and look pretty under Trump? Can't wait
for this debate on Tuesday again. The next News Radio
eleven ten kfab debate viewing party. It's Tuesday night. The
debate starts at eight you'll be able to hear the
presidential debate. If you can't make it to the viewing party,
(25:15):
you can hear it right here on news radio eleven
ten KFAB as well as pre and post game with
Fox News Radio. But if you're so inclined to join
us and you've never been to one of these, allow
me to invite you. The first thing people think is
do I need to make a reservation or buy tickets. No.
Ref's Sports Bar and Grill ninety seventh and Giles is
(25:39):
hosting this. This is the first time that REFS has
hosted a debate viewing party. And here's what it is.
REFS has got TVs all over the place. It's a
big sports bar. So whether you're sitting and you walk in,
you can either sit over here in the big room
to the left, you can sit over here in the
big party room the right, you can sit at the bar.
(26:01):
No matter where you sit, you're going to be able
to see a TV. Every TV will have the debate on,
and I actually made them like it's like just humor me.
If you would, can we test the sound system. I
want to make sure it's good quality sound so that
not everyone, not only can everyone see I want everyone
to be able to hear. And with people there eating
(26:23):
their lunch, Rory cranked up the sound there at ref
Sports Bar and Grill, and he said, and that was
just part way as everyone's like, what is going on? Yeah,
it's loud enough, it's clear enough. Guy has spent some
time and money on that sound system and I appreciate that.
So I'm so glad to be out at Ref's Sports
(26:46):
Bar and Grill Tuesday night. The debate starts at dight.
I do encourage you to show up early. Grab some food.
It's a full I said, bar and grill, so great
menu at Refs, and quality beverages as well, So get
a little bite to eat, have a beverage or two.
I do not recommend playing a drinking game, nor do
(27:08):
does KFAB for legal purposes, sanction such a thing. If
you were to take a drink. Every time Trump tried
to interrupt Kamala with the microphone off or Kamala laughed
and putin said, there it is. There's my girl. That
you could have alcohol poisoning within the first twenty minutes.
So we do not sanction such a thing. Here's what
(27:30):
we do sanction. You are encouraged to laugh, cheer, boo, cry,
whatever the spirit moves you to do. The only rule
is don't keep yelling and shooting off your mouth in
such a way as that people can't hear the debate.
I mean there's moments of pauses and all this stuff
where you can be like, ah, you know, people do that,
(27:54):
or laugh or there's groaning, and it's and you're encouraged
to do that. We treat this debate like a husker game.
Go in there, cheer for your side, boo the other side,
but don't go in there looking to fight with anybody,
and don't basically just don't be a jerk hole. And
(28:14):
it's all good. And if you're thinking, how is it
that with these candidates in this political climate, we don't
have people in there acting like jerk holes. I don't know,
we just never have. We've been doing these debate viewing
parties for I mean since the presidential election of two
thousand and eight. That was the first election cycle after
(28:37):
I got here.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
I was there. I remember that.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
I think our first one was at Bruski's, I believe it.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
I think it was wingson Rings, wasn't it Obama Romney?
Speaker 2 (28:50):
No, Yes, no, not in two thousand and eight, McCain
and Obama two thousand and eight, and I think our
first one was at Bruski's wesqu Street. I might be wrong,
but we've had a.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Lot of them, and this time I'm probably thinking of twelve.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
That would be twelve, yes this time. My favorite moment
was twenty sixteen. We had a young Hispanic girl, a
young like early twenties, and we were doing some Facebook
live stuff there talking to people, like an hour or
so before the debate started, and I asked her, I said, yeah,
(29:29):
what brings you out to be a part of this tonight.
She's like, well, I tell you what I'm not. I
don't support Trump. I said, that's cool. Why not? She goes.
He says, I'm looking at all these people here. I'm
afraid they're going to build a wall around me. It's
so funny, and we had a great time, always have.
(29:51):
They're really fun events. Now Vice President Harris has now
finally accepted the rules of this debate. The thing that
she was pushing for and the thing that Trump was
saying he also wanted, and his team was like, you bet,
mister president, we'll get that done for you. Meanwhile, I
know they were going to ABC News going please, absolutely not,
(30:15):
We're not going to do the debate if this. What
Kamala Harris wanted was for the microphones to be live
the entire time, because she thinks it works out better
for her for Trump to be interrupting, talking, incessantly making
his comments and letting the American people hear all of that,
because if they can say Trump is bullying this woman
(30:38):
here on stage, then that's going to play better for Kamala.
And so she knew it. So she was fighting to
have the microphones on, and the Trump team knows that too.
That's why I believe they were secretly fighting to make
sure the microphones were off like they were for Trump Biden.
The microphones were muted. Now that didn't stop Trump from
(31:00):
the entire time, which Biden's team said, well, yeah, the
President was rattled because Trump wouldn't shut up. Now, the
big moment in twenty twenty was when microphones were live.
Trump wouldn't shut up and Biden finally says, well you
shut up, man, and that got to be a big moment.
They want something like that again. Harris said, we're not
(31:23):
going to do the debate. Unless the microphones are live,
and ABC had already said no. We both sides had
previously agreed to the same rules as the CNN debate,
which included the muted microphones, and so just yesterday Harris's
team said all right, fine, we'll do it now. They
what they said was that, well, in order for Americans
(31:47):
to really involve themselves in this process of democracy, if
we have this rule change, then Trump's not going to
show up, and we'll be the ones to concede. Point
because if the American people can hear this and Trump
won't show up, well, we think it's better to have
(32:08):
these candidates up there so the American people can get
a real choice. So we're gonna be the better people
here to You can position it however you want. I
just can't wait to watch this Tuesday night, eight o'clock
