spurred three thirty, which is secretly known as Decker that's northbound.

Speaker 7 (01:49):
Good morning Bob res Hi everybody. It's now five oh
two on news Radio seven forty ktr H. And our
top story this hour when.

Speaker 8 (01:57):
The United States of America asked me to go to
a rock to serve country.

Speaker 5 (02:00):
I did it.

Speaker 8 (02:01):
When Tim Waltz was asked by his country to go
to Iraqi, you know what he did. He dropped out
of the army and allowed his unit to go without him.

Speaker 7 (02:09):
That's Donald Trump's running mate jd. Vance campaigning in Wisconsin,
going after the Democrat Tim Waltz, who, by the way,
didn't just quit the military. He's being accused of stolen valor.

Speaker 9 (02:20):
Two.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
He us the.

Speaker 10 (02:22):
Rank that he never achieved in order to advance his
political career. He's done it for decades now.

Speaker 7 (02:31):
That on Fox retired command Sergeant Major Thomas Barns, who
was a member of Walls Walls Battalion.

Speaker 11 (02:40):
If you believe the.

Speaker 7 (02:41):
Mainstream media, Kamala Harris has gone from being an unpopular
vice president of the most unpopular in history to actually
leading Donald Trump now in the polls in just two weeks.

Speaker 12 (02:53):
Donald Trump is calling the media out for trying to
guess light America into liking Harris.

Speaker 13 (02:58):
They're trying to build her up to the next Margaret
that's your liberal version, and I don't believe it's going
to happen.

Speaker 12 (03:05):
Texas Congressman Wesley Hunt told KTRH the media isn't going
to stop covering for Harris anytime soon.

Speaker 14 (03:10):
What we have to focus on is knowing that she
is not going to do any interviews. They kept binding
the basement in twenty twenty. They're going to keep her
off TV for the next ninety days.

Speaker 12 (03:20):
Hunt says Republicans should combat this by focusing on pointing
out how radical Harris is and trying to win over
independent voters. Ethan Buchanan News Radio seven forty KTRH.

Speaker 11 (03:30):
Five O three.

Speaker 7 (03:30):
Now we've got students at the Fort Bend and Umbelized,
these among many starting school today across Texas. New research
shows that half of all Texas school districts have adopted
what was called the good cause exception to get out
of having to have armed guards on campus.

Speaker 15 (03:50):
It was willfully underfunded, in my honest opinion that said,
there was funding in several bills throughout the multiple sessions
that year that literally were killed due to the Aboucher conversation.

Speaker 11 (04:02):
Yeah, it was all about school choice.

Speaker 7 (04:04):
State Senator Charles Perry's as lawmakers will fix that after
school choice passes next year. For Bend ISD is in compliance,
HID is not, and as if food and energy prices
weren't high enough. Inflation also hitting the back to school
shoppers too.

Speaker 16 (04:23):
A majority of parents expect to pay more for back
to school this year than last year, and seventy percent
believe back to school costs are too high. According to
wallet Hub, financial planner Bill Dendy says, this expense sneaks
up on a lot of folks, like those who.

Speaker 17 (04:35):
Are surprised when it's time to pay the property taxes
or a tax time it's end of the year. It's
one of the things that we know we're going to
have to do play the holiday season, and I see
a number of people going to debt this time of
year and hope to come back out of just in
time to go back in the debt for the holidays.

Speaker 16 (04:50):
In fact, three quarters of parents say they're willing to
go into debt for their kids' school costs. The Texas
Tax Free School Supply Holiday is coming up this weekend.
Corey Yelson, who's Radio seven forty reach five oh.

Speaker 7 (05:01):
Biden administration wants us all to believe the economy is great,
but nope, we see recession, and so do some experts.

Speaker 18 (05:10):
There's a lot of uncertainty out there I've always pointed
the geopolitics, I think, the deficits to spending, the qualitative tightening,
the elections, all these things caused some confirmation.

Markets JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Diamond. He was on
CNBC stock futures down across the board this morning after
closing down again yesterday. High interest rates, lower consumers spending
two indicators of what's really happening economy. With our economy
on main Street, there.

Speaker 19 (05:40):
Are many indicators that the US economy is in much
worse condition than most people think, and it's certainly in
worse condition than the stock market up until last week
had been indicating.

Speaker 7 (05:55):
St Karnak at the Heartland Institute. He says consumers are
also taking in a lot of debt. However, according to
a new study social security benefits, not only have they
not increased, they've lost buying power since twenty ten.

Speaker 20 (06:09):
Shara as Shannon Benton, executive director with the Senior Citizens League,
puts it.

Speaker 21 (06:15):
To really really summarize it in a nutshell, what you
could have bought for one hundred dollars fourteen years ago,
you could only buy eighty dollars worth of goods and services.

Speaker 20 (06:26):
Now that's twenty percent. The bottom line is the KOLA
is not keeping up.

Speaker 11 (06:32):
It is tough.

Speaker 22 (06:33):
A lot of seniors are going back to work. They're
definitely spending down their savings. They're using credit cards to
pay their electric bills.

While they were on the ground, one shot was fired.
The suspect was struck once.

Speaker 7 (07:29):
The officers asked the man to leave a high crime
area because he was loitering elsewhere. Two boys killed by
gunshots as juvenile family members were playing with a gun.
One shot at the scene, fatally the other juvenile died

More with Jimmy Barretts and Shriff Fryar, this is Houston's
Morning News.

Speaker 5 (08:23):
Ever been to a bad buffet?

Speaker 7 (08:25):
I like, I mean, yeah, the dorm, all right, yeah,
five years ago.

Speaker 5 (08:31):
I mean we've all been to them.

Speaker 4 (08:33):
I won't name any names, any commercial restaurants, but but
if you ever go to a bad buffet, you're like,
that looks like it might be good. None of it's good,
and you're just like, I just spent you know, twenty
five dollars on the all you can eat bafet and
I don't want to eat any of it.

Speaker 5 (08:46):
It's crap. That's the news cycle right now. I have a.

Speaker 4 (08:50):
Massive buffet of crap sitting in front of me here,
and I don't know what to feed you.

Speaker 5 (08:55):
That is how bad it is.

Speaker 4 (08:57):
Holy goodness, gracious from Stolen Valor Share, you just covered
a lot of it in the top of the hour.

Speaker 5 (09:02):
This incredible gas lighting.

Speaker 4 (09:04):
That the media is doing to us with respect to
Kamala Harrison. I'm starting not to think after three days
of this nonsense, three straight days of not talking about
Kamala Harris's incompetence anymore, not talking about Kamala Harris's low
IQ anymore, not talking about Kamala Harris's record as borders
are anymore. Everybody is talking about Tim Wallas. I'm starting

(09:26):
to think that three days ago, she picks somebody who
is worse than her and will bump her off of
the headlines for a little while from the critics so
they can make fun of Tim Wallas for a while.
No kidding, this guy is every bit as radical, first
as a congressman, now as a governor than Kamala Harris

(09:48):
has been as a senator, than a vice president, and
now would be presidential poser. This is insane. The stuff
that this guy is talking about. We've got audio four
you this morning. Tim Walls completely destroying the First Amendment,
does not believe in it, thinks it should absolutely have
caps your free speech obviously, the stolen valor issue. Obviously,

(10:11):
the radicalism when it comes to everything from abortion to
transing kids, tampons and bathrooms and everything else. Everything he
has done is now front page news, and Kamala has
been bumped off to the side a little bit, which
is why many people think. In addition to the anti semitism,
the other reason she skipped over Josh Shapiro for vice
president is because he would have been absolutely superior to

(10:34):
her in every way and she could not stand losing
the spotlight to somebody else.

Speaker 11 (10:39):
Well, they're prepping her for the prom next week.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
Yeah, well, no doubt about that, they are, indeed, But
she's hiding. Jd Vance called her out, which is not
crap on the buffet. That's actually a decent meal right there.
But Jade Vance went to her plane and called her
out in front of the journalists there.

Speaker 5 (10:55):
It is a huge thing.

Speaker 4 (10:56):
Yeah, but there is just so much in this new
cycle right now, and so much of it is bad.
But we're gonna give you the best weekend this morning
on Houston's Morning News. It's five eleven. Let's start out
with the roads. I was told to get a helmet
or something like that.

Speaker 6 (11:10):
Well, you're gonna need that hard hat because we do
have that three thirty thing over in Baytown in front
of Eggs on Mobile. You make a buttload of money
if you work there. But and this is a big
hard hat, but this is going to be a closure
for the rest of the week northbound all the three thirty.
They have shut down the ramps from one so rolling Brooke.
You can make your back way. You could go through

(11:31):
Obt if.

Speaker 5 (11:32):
You want to.

Speaker 6 (11:34):
Let's see you can get there by Bayway and make
your backways in But three thirties close northbound southbound. No, no,
you just find southbound Ship Channel Tobridge. The suckings has
not really started yet. Let's skip over to six '
ten anyway just for fun, and let's go to Grand
park Way quickly. Since we got Terry there. Check out
her golf ball and tomball. It's still standing up there.

(11:54):
We look good. From two forty nine so far over

Speaker 25 (12:14):
Don't evolution enthusiasm.

Speaker 5 (12:16):
Thank you so much, Jeffrey.

Speaker 6 (12:17):

to be careful around here, Skymike and the Generator Supercenter
dot Com traffic Center.

Speaker 5 (12:25):
All right, thank you very much, sky Mike.

Speaker 4 (12:27):
Terry Smith that the Weather Channel is looking at a
very hot forecast for us.

Speaker 11 (12:31):
Hi, Terry, Yes, it's very hot forecast.

Speaker 26 (12:33):
And Skymike, by the way, your enthusiasm doesn't just frighten management.

Speaker 11 (12:37):
Small children too have been known.

Speaker 5 (12:39):
To rus yeah, hit people on the elevator.

Speaker 26 (12:43):
Oh yeah, then you know you're in trouble when they're Terry, Terry,
banana sticker for you.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
Thank you.

Speaker 11 (12:51):
All right.

Speaker 26 (12:52):
Yes, the heat is the thing for us, and the
heat advisory has been issued and it's just for today
so far, eleven o'clock this morning until nine o'clock tonight.
We're going to see those temperatures about what they were
yesterday or slightly hotter upper nineties to around one oh two,
but the heat and decks what it will feel like
if you're outside for longer than fifteen minutes one o

(13:14):
eight to one twelve.

Speaker 11 (13:14):
It's a hot day.

Speaker 26 (13:15):
And it stays like this through the weekend Sunday and
dry through Sunday, temperatures right around one hundred and then
a twenty percent chance of rain Monday. We're in the
mid to upper nineties on Monday, so that really doesn't
help us much, not.

Speaker 5 (13:28):
Much at all, but you'll deal. Thank yous.

need to take on the day.

Speaker 5 (13:51):
All right.

Indeed, it is five nineteen now Bot France in for
Jimmy on this Thursday morning.

Speaker 5 (13:55):
Thanks for being with us.

Speaker 4 (13:56):
It is being called by many disqualifying, and I'm talking
about the stolen valor controversy that is getting worse by
the hour. For Kamala Harris's chosen vice president vice presidential
candidate on what is, without question, the most radical ticket
in American history. Tim Walls continued, well, he doesn't continue

(14:16):
to do it now, but we continue to find new examples,
new videos of him lying about his military record at
the same time that the left is literally trying to
ignore the record of the vice presidential running made.

Speaker 5 (14:30):
Of Donald J. Trump.

Speaker 4 (14:31):
Jadie Vance. Jadie Vance was a Marine JD Vance deployed
to I Rock. JD Vance served honorably, did exactly what
he was asked to do. Tim Walls fled. He was
in the National Guard for twenty four years and was
planning to stay in it until his unit.

Speaker 5 (14:46):
Got deployed to Iraq.

Speaker 4 (14:48):
He then quit the National Guard before he would have
to go, abandoning his battalion.

Speaker 5 (14:54):
Some of those individuals are screaming to the.

Speaker 4 (14:56):
Media right now, this guy abandoned us, US without our commander.

Speaker 5 (15:01):
And guess what now he's trying.

Speaker 4 (15:03):
To claim that he was deployed, that he carried weapons
of war in combat zones. He never did any of that.
Many are calling this disqualified. Why are we focusing on
it because it's the first decision that the would be president.
Kamala Harris has made since being given the crown for
the Democrat Party coronated without one single primary vote being

(15:26):
cast for her. She was given this title and now
as the nominee, and her first major decision is to
pick her running mate, and she picked a guy who
is stealing valor from true American heroes. More on this
coming up after traffic and weather. Skymike on the drive.

Speaker 6 (15:41):
Let's do some north side here I forty five, let's do.
Let's come down from Conro and so far we are good.

Speaker 6 (15:55):
Coming down from the sticks, Flendor, how are you doing
this morning? We're looking good to New care a quarter beltway,
rocking to downtown twenty two minutes.

Speaker 5 (16:04):
Once you get to Humble, let's go the other side quickly.

Speaker 6 (16:07):
We've got Megan from Keema coming up the south side morning.

Speaker 27 (16:10):
Sky Mike is speaking from Chema, just wanting to know
a trip from that's the flyover I ten west to
Highway six was a perfect forty five minutes drive people
were behaving.

Speaker 6 (16:26):
I think the stupid people stayed in bed for a
little bit. Toll bridge suck had just begun ten extra
minute southbound. I'm Skymike from the classic Elite GMC Traffic Center.

Speaker 4 (16:35):
I woke up early just saying come on, just saying
we are going to be very hot today, pushing up
to the triple digits hundreds, one hundred and one hundred
two overnight low down to eighty one Friday Sunday in
the upper nineties, to lower one hundreds, more of the
same throughout the weekend, maybe getting back into the mid
nineties into the next work week Monday and Tuesday. But
still a chance of triple digits, and we have about

(16:58):
a twenty percent chance of rain on Monday. Well right now,
eighty two not bad if it's stayed this way. At

I live in southeast Houston.

Speaker 2 (17:47):
Your forecast is at the bottom of the hour on
seven forty KTRH.

Speaker 5 (17:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (17:52):
What really needs to be pointed out here with respect
to this Tim Walls thing is it doesn't matter whether
the Democrats knew about his life, about his military record,
which matters to Americans. You know, Donald Trump never served
and he never claimed that he did.

Speaker 7 (18:06):
Did you see the meme that was going around yesterday
which Donald Trump has faced more bullets in one k
I did not see it, then Walls did in that entired,
wonderful career.

Speaker 5 (18:19):
Yeah, Trump never served. In the left likes to point
that out.

Speaker 4 (18:22):
You know, Oh, he didn't serve, he got deferments and
so on and so forth, and you know what, he's
never claimed that he has. It is one thing to
not serve as another thing to proclaim that you have served,
particularly in combat.

Speaker 5 (18:32):
When you did not.

Speaker 4 (18:33):
Now Tim Walls did serve twenty four years in the
National Guard, but he never saw a combat zone. Despite
again these disqualifying remarks.

Speaker 5 (18:45):
Poke wo cup like many of you did.

Speaker 28 (18:46):
Five weeks ago, and Dad said, Dad, you're the only
person I know who's an elected office. You need to
stop what's happening with this. I'll take my kick in
the butt for the NRA. I spent twenty five years
in the Army, and I hunt and I gave the money.

Speaker 4 (18:57):
He says the Army, he doesn't say the National Guard,
which is what he was really in.

Speaker 5 (19:00):
He was in the Army National Guard.

Speaker 4 (19:02):
Not that there is anything wrong with that, but it
is a very very there is a demarcation.

Speaker 5 (19:06):
There should be a difference there back And I'll tell
you what I have been doing.

Speaker 28 (19:09):
I've been voting for common sense legislation that protects a
second Amendment. But we can do background checks, we can
do CDC research, we can make sure we don't have
reciprocal carry amongst states, and we can make sure that
those weapons of war that I carried in war is
the only place where those weapons were act.

Speaker 4 (19:23):
He claims that he carried a weapon of war in war.
He has never been to war. When he was called
on to go to war, he ran away from war.
And that is what jd Vance, his counterpart on the
VP side of things, had to say.

Speaker 8 (19:36):
What really bothers me about Tim Waltz. It's not even
the positions that he's taken, though certainly he has been
a far left radical. You know what really bothers me
about Tim Waltz as a marine who served his country
in uniform. When the United States Marine Corps, when the
United States of America asked me to go to Iraq
to serve my country.

Speaker 5 (19:52):
I did it.

Speaker 8 (19:53):
I did what they asked me to do it, and
I did it honorably, and I'm very proud of that service.
When Tim Waltz was asked by his country to go
to Iraq, you know what he did. He dropped out
of the army and allowed his unit to go without him,
a fact that he's been criticized for aggressively by a
lot of the people that he served with. I think
it's shameful to prepare your unit to go to Iraq,
to make a promise that you're going to follow through

(20:14):
and then to drop out right before you actually have
to go. I also think it's dishonest something Again, if
you guys ever get an opportunity to ask Tim Waltz
or Kamala Harris some questions.

Speaker 5 (20:24):
He made this interesting comment that.

Speaker 8 (20:26):
The Kamala Harris campaign put out there, and I bet
they were regretting they put it out there now because
he said that we and he was making a point
about gun control. He said, we shouldn't allow weapons that
I used in war to be on America's streets. Well,
I wondered, Tim Waltz, when were you ever in war?

Speaker 5 (20:43):
Never? And you're right, Serah.

Speaker 4 (20:45):
I didn't see the meme, but I'll love it already,
and that Donald Trump has faced more gunfire than Tim
Walls ever did. And that is the reality of the situation.
But by the way, that is not the only video.
A new video has surfaced kind of literally overnight or
late last night of Tim Walls again stolen valor. This

(21:06):
guy did an interview on c SPAN a few years
ago in which he talked about his military service, claiming
that he spent twenty four years in the National Guard.
This time he says guard, and he said he deployed
in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.

Speaker 5 (21:21):
He never ever deployed. He quit before he could be deployed.

Speaker 4 (21:24):
He said, my battalion provided base security throughout the European
theater from Turkey to England and in the early stages
in Afghanistan. And that same battalion is now in Iraq
at this time. He said this in two thousand and seven,
as if he was part of that. He was never
a part of any of it. He quit when he
was given the order to deploy.

Speaker 5 (21:44):
This.

Speaker 4 (21:44):
The Democrats are going to have to figure out what
they're going to do about this, because either they knew
he was lying and were cool with it, or they
didn't know it all, which means they didn't even vet him.

Speaker 5 (21:53):
And that's extraordinary. Five twenty seven.

Speaker 4 (21:55):
Now, let's take a look at the markets to see
what's happening with a bad day A couple of days ago,
rebounded a little bit.

Speaker 5 (22:00):
Now, Courtney Donahoe at the Bloomberg Business.

Speaker 24 (22:02):
Report, what do we have today, Well, the morning pop
so much turbulence recently, Well, yesterday's attempt at a two
day rally fizzled out, with the major averages ending the
day lower. The Dow dropped two hundred forty three points.
Markets have been in a tailspin since last week's economic data,
fuel worries a feder reserve has been too slow to
cut interest rates. This morning, Dow features are down eighty

(22:22):
five points. The health of the job market is a
big concern, so this morning's report on new claims for
unemployment benefits is getting more than the usual amount of
attention and Richard diners are visiting I Hop and Applebee's
more often. Diame Brand says it's attracting more guests from

In twenty twenty four.

Speaker 4 (23:14):
Good Morning, Bob Frands and for Jimmy Barrett sare has
got the details on those stories and more coming up.

Speaker 5 (23:18):
First, let's hit that traffic against sky Mike.

Speaker 6 (23:21):
We've got a problem on I forty five of the
North Freeway nineteen sixty.

Speaker 5 (23:25):
This is outbound, not inbound. It's on the right side.

Speaker 6 (23:27):
Why are those people getting off over the thing you're
not supposed to drive over?

Speaker 5 (23:30):
I do that too outbound though.

Speaker 6 (23:32):
There's plenty of lange to get by, and it looks
like everybody's okay. I think they'll take a right lane
once the fire department gets unseen.

Speaker 5 (23:38):
Hardy Toll Road. What's up rolling from Richmond?

Speaker 9 (23:41):
Hey, good morning, sky my dude.

Speaker 5 (23:43):
South of Golf Road.

There is a fines stream with a bicycle on the
left lane. That have to store last man, and just
be careful.

Speaker 7 (24:20):
Shreff and Good morning everyone, is five thirty two on
News Radio seven forty k t r H and our
top story this hour. As expected, AI now showing its
bias against his programmed bias against conservatives.

Speaker 31 (24:33):
A new study says popular AI models, including chat GPT,
are far more friendly to the political ideology of the left.

Speaker 32 (24:40):
When AI started to come up, that we didn't have
a way to regulate it. So now they are taking
advantage of a gigantic loophole.

Speaker 31 (24:48):
That comes as no surprise to political strategist Raven Harrison,
who says AI models will only get more radical to
try and save the Democrat Party, and it is.

Speaker 32 (24:56):
Ramped up now when they have an unelectable candidate and
receive a single primary vote.

Speaker 31 (25:01):
Harrison says, AI models being anti conservative has always been
part of the plan. Jared Lewis, News Radio seven forty
KJRH and.

Speaker 7 (25:09):
From Your Government Too, a DOJ memo now showing that
the FBI has resumed its regular weekly meetings with social
media companies ahead of this election. Joseph Basquez of the
Media Research Center says, this is twenty twenty all over again.

Speaker 25 (25:25):
The Department of Justice for the federal government has tasted
the power of controlling speech, and they never wanted to
give that up. In the American who believe to be
aware the left does not want to give up big tech.
Twenty twenty is going to look like a firecracker. It's
compared to the fireworker going to go off on free speech.

Speaker 7 (25:40):
And he added that the US Supreme Court just ruled
in June against blocking the presidential's FBI from colluding with
big tech and unfathomable ruling against free speech. Texas Governor
Greg Abbas says the border disaster that started with Joe
Biden could get worse with Kamala Hara.

Speaker 33 (26:00):
Es is governor of the largest border state. I got
to tell you that ticket.

Speaker 5 (26:04):
Is very frightening.

Speaker 33 (26:05):
As bad as Joe Biden has been on the border,
Harris Walls will be even worse.

Speaker 5 (26:09):
On the border.

Speaker 7 (26:10):
Abbott on CNN, we had a rare Joe Biden siding yesterday,
though came out of hiding. Joe Biden did to take
shots at Donald Trump and og to scare everyone to death.

Speaker 34 (26:23):
Are you confident that there will be a peaceful transfer
of power in January twenty twenty five.

Speaker 35 (26:31):
If Trump wins. No, I'm not comforting all. I mean,
Trump loses, I'm not coming all.

Speaker 13 (26:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (27:01):
Polls show that most voters do support school choice, So
why has it taken so long for Texas lawmakers to
pass it.

Speaker 36 (27:09):
This idea of let's cloak everything in silence or hide
the problem, that doesn't solve the problem. We need to
make sure that we root out the corruption.

Speaker 7 (27:20):
Yeah, well, the corruption was the Texas House where the
speaker wouldn't even allow it to be brought to the floor.
Mandy Drogan with the Next Generation Texas says taxpayer funded
lobbyists oh have been used to help the speaker kill
school choice. Dade Feelin after the primary Zoo A lot

Speaker 7 (27:57):
The region, though, were already acting as if an attack
is imminent.

Speaker 37 (28:01):
The We'reso reports regarding Egypt asking airlines to avoid Iranian
airspace Thursday morning for about three hours. So far no
indication that this was related to some sort of specific attack,
but it really speaks to the heightened tensions that are
only growing, not only here in Israel, but around the
region and the world.

Speaker 7 (28:19):
Foxes Jeff Paul in Tel Aviv Liberal New York Times,
well I call him leftists reports that Kamala Harris would
be open to discussing an arms embargo against Israel if
she can just get the support of the so called
uncommitted voters movement of Muslim and Arab voters in Michigan. Meantime,
in the UK, more protest violent protests after the gruesome

ignored environmental regulations to make this work because of the
political pressure.

Robert Hennikey of the TPPF says a project in Massachusetts
collapsed and caused problems. Plus the idea goes entirely against
their green agenda.

Good morning, once again Bob brands in for Jimmy on
this Thursday morning, We're gonna hit the gas lighting story
just a little bit more in a few I don't
know how the media actually thinks they can pull this off.

Speaker 5 (31:23):
They are doing some pretty good work.

Speaker 4 (31:24):
Are the Harris campaign team trying to literally gaslight us
into thinking that she is popular after being the most
unpopular vice president in the history of presidential polling because
she is getting giant crowds at her rallies Trump sized crowds,
except for the fact that they're not rallies.

Speaker 5 (31:42):
They're concerts.

Speaker 4 (31:43):
There are popular bands and performers performing, and people are
showing up massive numbers to see concerts. And then Kamala
Harris and or Tim Walls shows up as well, and they.

Speaker 5 (31:54):
Say, look at all of the people here to see Tim.

Speaker 7 (31:57):
Walls but taking people off the streets, homeless people, and hey,
you want to go to a free concert? Yeah, and
they may give them some money. Besides, you don't know.

Speaker 4 (32:09):
The best part about it, share it to And as
some are pointing out online, look at those videos of
those crowds, look at the videos of Trump crowds, and
what do you see? Everywhere you see people carrying Trump signs,
wearing red, white and blue, like totally there for Trump.
Look at the crowds that they're showing. Like in Wisconsin
yesterday at this Kamala Harris event, you'll see a whole

(32:32):
bunch of people, nobody carrying Harris signs, nobody like indicating
that I'm here to see a political rally. They're all
there for the concert. And this is something, you know.
They think the people are stupid, which of course is
the nature of gaslighting. They think the people are stupid
and that they'll believe anything that they're told, no matter
what their their mind tells them. And quite frankly, they're

(32:52):
in for a very very rude awakening.

Speaker 11 (32:54):
Well radly some people do.

Speaker 4 (32:56):
Well, that's true though there are a lot of Hey,
I'll make no bones about it, there are a lot
of idiots out there. But they think that we're all
idiots collectively, and that's what they're going to find out
in a very very quick, a very very direct way.
Let's put it that way. That we're not okay, Sky

the point. But we've got fur three thirty closed Baytown.

and the temperatures between the upper nineties to around one
two today. It's days like that through Sunday. There is
a slight chance of some rain Monday, just the afternoon
sea breeze kind of stuff. Heat advisory though today. If

you've got outdoor plans, make sure you're taking those little

All right, very well, good it, Thank you, Terry. Eighty
two degrees right now at your official severe weather station,
News Radio seven forty ktr H.

Speaker 5 (35:31):
What you need to know for the day ahead.

Speaker 2 (35:34):
This is Houston's Morning News, brought to you by New
South Windows Solutions.

Speaker 4 (35:39):
Okay, five forty eight, we do continue this morning on
Houston's Morning News. I want to pivot just slightly to
one of the other terrible news items on the buffet
that I was discussing at the top of the show
this morning about new vice presidential contender Tim Walls. The
stolen valor story is enormous, and it is only getting
bigger the more people look at his record, the number
of times that he is that he served when he did.

(36:01):
But this is to me much bigger. His past is
his past, and it's dangerous. But this is far more
dangerous because we are now talking about your right to
speak and be heard, My right to speak and be
heard free of the government telling us whether or not
they like what we say and what we hear, and.

Speaker 5 (36:21):
Whether or not it should be spiked. On that basis,
I think we need to push back on this.

Speaker 28 (36:25):
There's no guarantee of free speech on misinformation or hate speech,
and especially around our democracy.

Speaker 4 (36:32):
Tim Walls wants to be one heart beat away from
the presidency and he believes that the First Amendment is
an outdated, antiquated idea, the idea that we should be
able to say what we want.

Speaker 5 (36:43):
The government should be able to.

Speaker 4 (36:44):
Suppress and censor that speech if they determine that it
is misinformation, if they determine that it is hateful. I'm
sitting here just blown away by this, Shara. The First
Amendment is the There's a reason it's number one in
the Bill of Rights. There is a reason the government
cannot tell us what we can and cannot say, well,
we can and cannot hear based on whether they decide

(37:07):
if it's misinformation. Because guess what, the governor or the
government told us that the Joe Biden Hunter Biden laptop
of sins was not real, it was Russian propaganda. They
told us that it was misinformation.

Speaker 5 (37:22):
It wasn't.

Speaker 4 (37:23):
They told us that COVID shots were effective then, and
if you took the shot that you would not get
it and you would not transmit it to anybody else.
That was never true. They told us who is safe?
Suddenly millions of people have myo carditis and palsy.

Speaker 5 (37:37):
And or strokes and all kinds of other things. That
was never true.

Speaker 4 (37:41):
Since when do the American people who are supposed to
be the ones in charge of the government have to
sit by and let the government tell them what they
can and cannot say, or what they can and cannot hear.
The number two guy on the Democrat ticket wants to
make it that way.

Speaker 11 (37:57):
Hold that thought.

Speaker 4 (37:59):
Uh oh, it's five to fifty, all right, we'll hold
that fop. We'll get SHARE's reaction to that coming up
after we hear from sky Mike.

Speaker 6 (38:05):
We've got three thirties per three thirty. Big Town still
shut down. Northbound, that's going to be an all week deal. Southbound,
we're just fine, but it's up so also close the
ramps from one forty six coming up to two eighty eight.

Speaker 5 (38:16):
We look good.

Speaker 6 (38:17):
Now, we do have a problem over our shoulder on
the south sam westbound right at twity. It's got a
stall on the right side, but to eighty eight itself,
twenty two minutes from Manvil up North Freeway. You're seeing
this deal in red on some of your screens on
the onlines. That's I forty five at nineteen sixty. It's nothing.
In fact, I don't even believe believe it's a vehicle fire.

(38:37):
I think it's just a big stall truck. He's over
on the side. Once the super sized Ninja gets there,
they'll probably take a right lane. This is outbound, not inbound.

Five fifty two now on news radio seven forty KTRH.
Our headlines are sponsored by Moral Mechanical, revealing the truth
about the military career of Democrat VP Choice Tim Walls.
Been eighteen days since Kamala Harris was anointed as Joe
Biden's successor. She still hasn't done a press conference or
an interview. She did meet her sorority sisters and some

(39:49):
Girl Scouts yesterday.

Speaker 2 (40:08):
I live in clear Lake, Humble, reliable KTRH traffic and weather.

Speaker 3 (40:13):
Next on the ten.

Speaker 4 (40:15):
All right, schriff, So you heard the the threat if
you will from Tim Walls. The First Amendment is not absolute.
If there's misinformation being shared or if hate speech is
taking place, as he defines it, maybe you can't do it.

Speaker 7 (40:29):
Well, that's what's that's what Marxists do. That's what they say,
that's what they do.

Speaker 4 (40:37):
Well, you're right, obviously, one hundred percent, that is And
Kamala Harris is a class you know, what's.

Speaker 11 (40:41):
Business and that's what the Biden administration has done.

Speaker 4 (40:44):
Yeah, And what's really bizarre is is many people know
about the classically trained Marxist that is Kamala Harris. She
was raised by two Marxists, and then she was raised
in Montreal, Canada. By the way, she went to school there,
and she came back and then immediately got indoctrinated, if
you will, into Marxist and communist politics by Willie Brown

(41:07):
and others in California before being set loose on the rest.

Speaker 5 (41:11):
Of the world.

Speaker 4 (41:11):
But nobody knew this about Tim Walls, or at least
many people we knew about his radical decisions during COVID.

Speaker 5 (41:16):
We know he let Minneapolis.

Speaker 4 (41:18):
Burn for three days before he would let the National
Guard come in and try to do anything. He thought
that the writing was okay because it was righteous rioting,
because George Floyd died, we knew a lot about that stuff.
But boyle boy, what we are learning more about him
now is that he is He's kind of like the
white male version of Kamala Harris.

Speaker 11 (41:35):
Yeah, he is.

Speaker 7 (41:36):
And sadly, the Supreme Court, you know, the Fifth Circuit
ruled that no shut down these FBI meetings with social
media and the big tech gurus, and the Supreme Court
lifted the stay. So now you know, they've started weekly
meetings now, the FBI with big tech and social media,
so they can shut down inappropriate speech on the Internet.

Speaker 11 (41:58):
So it's not just facing Yeah, and.

Speaker 4 (42:01):
That's of course what you know, everybody with a functioning
cerebral cortex knows that's what this is all about. If
the government gets to decide what's what's misinformation, disinformation or
correct information, we don't have free speech if the government
cans decide what's hate speech and what's not. And by
the way, I'm here to tell you hate speech is
absolutely constitutional. Threatening speech is different. You can't threaten to

(42:22):
kill like a president of the United States. But you
can say I hate Donald Trump. I think he is
a blankety blank blank blank blank plank. You can say
that about uh Tim Walls, you can say that about
somebody who's not a public figure. I can hate you
until the until you know, at the end of the day,
and I can say it out loud, and I can
be hateful, I can be mean and nobody can do
a thing about it, because that's literally what the First.

Speaker 5 (42:44):
Amendment must protect.

Speaker 4 (42:46):
And and and so if they're deciding we don't think
hate speech. And by the way, what if what if
I say something about you, Sharah, and you say, well,
that was mean and hateful, I'm going to get you
written up for that. Wait a minute, only because you
decided because you felt offended, you felt like it was hateful.
That's how this whole thing goes. Who gets to determine

(43:08):
what hate us? And the reason I don't have that
is there is no such way to do it. That's
the reason we have a First Amendment.

Speaker 11 (43:14):
The left decide.

Speaker 4 (43:16):
And speaking of the left, let's just hit this before
the top here. You know who's taking credit for the
Harris Walls ticket. The Democratic Socialists of America the DSA.
On their Twitter feed as of last night, Harris choosing
Walls as are running made has shown the world that
DSA and our allies on the left are a force
that cannot be ignored through collective action. DSA and the

(43:39):
US Left more broadly, US Left more broadly have made
it clear that change is needed, and DSA members organized
in our workplaces and unions to realign the labor movement
to support Palestinian liberation.

Speaker 5 (43:51):
Blah blah blah.

Speaker 4 (43:52):
But the socialists are saying, this was our ticket, we
made it happen, and you know what, They're right. Five

compare and contrast very easily. Republican VP nominee JD. Vans
served as a marine in Iraq. Democrat Tim Walls quit
the National Guard to run for office rather than to
deploy to Iraq.

Speaker 8 (46:07):
I think it's shameful to prepare your unit to go
to Iraq, to make a promise that you're going to
follow through, and then to drop out right before you
actually have to go.

Speaker 7 (46:17):
Senator Vans in Wisconsin yesterday. Walls not just lying about
the rank he attained in the National Guard either. New
bombshell video shows something else.

Speaker 43 (46:26):
Commerson's official biography has said he served in support of
operation and during freedom. Is that reasonable if it causes
confusion or many cause confusions that somebody may have thought
that machine that explained that he served in Italy and
not in Afghanistan.

Speaker 7 (46:42):
That video was posted by the Calvin Coolidge Project late
last night. Yeah, he served in Italy, not Afghanistan. Kamala

to the best of our abilities not to do unfunded mandates.

correct that next year after school choice asses.

Speaker 5 (51:46):
All right, eight minutes after six o'clock.

Speaker 4 (51:48):
Good morning once again Pop Fran sitting sitting in for
Jimmy Barrett on this Thursday. It's the eighth morning of
the eighth month year of our Lord twenty twenty four.
Steered away from presidential politics for just a moment from Israel,
well not from Israel, technically it's from Gaza. But Hamas
has named their new political leader after the Israeli strike
killed the former political leader of Hamasta, one who said

(52:11):
that October seventh was a great victory that all Muslims
shall hold on to and then prepare for the next one.
The new political leader is the mastermind of the October seventh,
twenty twenty three attacks in Israel, Yahwa Sinwar will be
the terror group's new polit bureau chief, its highest ranking
figure following the assassination of Ismail Haneya in Tehran last week. Sinhwar,

(52:36):
who is Hamasa's leader in Gaza, is widely considered the
architect of the October seventh invasion and massacre in southern Israel,
in which some twelve hundred people were killed two hundred
and fifty one taken hostage, many of whom are still
being held, sparking what is the ongoing war in Gaza?
And interestingly, the Israeli Defense minister yesterday really actually it

(52:58):
might have been Tuesday, but I had a yesterday.

Speaker 5 (53:00):
I released a statement.

Speaker 4 (53:02):
Actually, he made a statement at a press conference saying
we will get to Sinoar, we will eliminate him. That
means saying, straight up, period, we will kill him. However,
he said, dozens Palestinians hamas civilians. If you get to
him and kill him first, it'll shorten the war for

(53:23):
all of us. I absolutely love the message. We will
not stop until he is dead. Unless you kill him first,
then this thing will be over. A lot faster. How
much do you really care about civilian collateral damage? If
you care, take him out for us, and then we
don't have to worry about this anymore.

Speaker 5 (53:40):
I love the message. Six ten now trafficking weather together

but I believed it just in case. Here so southbound
suckage has begun already, twelve extra minutes this way. So far,
we're doing a pretty good job of not bumping into
each other on most of our roadways. I know the
onlines are showing that. And red on the North Freeway
at nineteen sixty. I don't even believe it's a real

(54:46):

Speaker 4 (55:03):
And into Terry Smith's Weather center now at the weather Channel.
We'll see what's happening for the weekend to come.

Speaker 26 (55:08):
Hey Terry, Well, what's happening is what's been going on
for the last couple of days.

Speaker 11 (55:13):
It's basically dry.

Speaker 26 (55:15):
The temperatures are just a little hotter than they were yesterday.
I mean, yesterday was hot enough, but today everybody's in
the upper nineties to around one two in the afternoon.
And when you added our typical Houston heat, our heat
and disease are running high between one o eight to
one twelve in the afternoon hours. So we got a
heat advisory today. We'll likely see another heat advisory tomorrow.

(55:38):
We're in the upper nineties to around one hundred tomorrow,
Saturday and Sunday, no rain. Twenty percent chance that you
might get wet though on Monday.

Speaker 4 (55:47):
All right, well prepare, thank you so much, Terry. Right now,
we have eighty two degrees still at your official severe

Speaker 5 (56:03):
All right, six eighteen.

Speaker 4 (56:05):
Now, as we continue about France and for Jimmy coming
up in just a few we're going to talk to
State Senator Charles Perry about what's being done to protect
the kids in schools.

Speaker 5 (56:13):
With kids heading.

Speaker 4 (56:14):
Back, lawmakers ordered armed guards in every school, but apparently
not too many districts are down with that. They have
not complied, and after Uvaldi, of course, everybody is wondering
what is going to happen? How will they protect kids?
Kind of ties into the gun control debate, into conversation
the one that was sparked by Tim Walls and his

(56:35):
Stolen Valor commentary in which he has been repeated, well,
not repeatedly, on the terms of saying that he carried
weapons of war at war, but that, of course was
all a part of his gun control argument, that assault
weapons should be banned, and that red flag law should
be instituted, and so on and so forth. So we're
going to talk about who should be carrying the guns

(56:55):
when it comes to protecting your kids. I find it
interesting by the way that guns are used to protect
money in banks, used to protect politicians in government offices,
but we can't use them to protect children, our most
defenseless uh and most valuable assets that we have in
our schools. I find that very interesting. So we'll talk
to State Senator Perry about that. Coming right up right now,

(57:16):
pushing up on six twenty. So let's get our traffic
in our weather, and that means sky much.

Speaker 6 (57:19):
I'm gonna pitch from the stretch here North Freeway. You
missed your target. Usually we have to have that problem
at Sheppard. This time it's a Gulf Bank southbound. It's

Speaker 5 (57:49):

Speaker 4 (57:52):
That's pretty much all I need to tell you for now,
dry and hot until maybe on Monday with a twenty
percent chance of rain. But literally today Tomorrow, Saturday, Sunday
going to be up in the upper nineties and maybe
pushing over into the triple digits at various points during
the day's twenty percent chance of rain as mentioned on Monday.

Or save a few bucks your cheaper commute coming up
every ten minutes on the tens.

Speaker 4 (58:53):
All right, six to twenty one. Now, let's dive into this.
According to a Hearst Newspapers analysis, most schools have not
complied with the directive to require armed officers at every
public school, and an analysis of one hundred randomly selected districts,
they found that at least half of them adopted an
exception that was built into law to avoid complying with

(59:15):
that arm guard requirement.

Speaker 5 (59:16):
State Senator Charles Perry joining us now, Senator, good morning.

Speaker 4 (59:20):
What is your feeling on the safety of school kids
heading back into the school you're starting tomorrow in some places.

Speaker 48 (59:27):
Well, I mean, we pray and hope that the tragedy
doesn't strict as it did in valid and unfortunately around
the country several schools over the years. But specifically to
this issue, it's it's a combination of a couple of things.
First of all, there's not enough employee employment opportunity for

(59:47):
the armed guards, if you will, we don't have a
lot of folks stayed in line to take those jobs,
and there's different reasons for that. It's it's unfortunately still
kind of a COVID hangar. There's not as many people
in the workforce for any purpose, so shortage of individuals
to fill those roles. And secondly, and probably tied to
the first, the state did not send enough money to

(01:00:09):
the districts to fulfill that requirement. And so in that
process of negotiating that bill, unfortunately or fortunately how you
would look at it, I think it's unfortunate we left
the loophole, if you will, or the scapegoat, the escape
hatch that if you don't have the money, are there
not available, you don't you know, you're not in.

Speaker 5 (01:00:29):
Out of compliance with the state laws.

Speaker 48 (01:00:30):
So specifically, we need to fund those positions going back.
I mean, it's about eighty two one hundred thousand dollars
to provide typically a vehicle typically you know, the gun,
the badge, the suit, and then hire that employee. So
we have to put more funding behind it to probably

(01:00:50):
at that point encourage more people willing to do that job.

Speaker 7 (01:00:54):
Rather than arming and training people who are already part
of the school district. It's all about having to hire
someone outside a single officer to roam a campus and
not get there in time.

Speaker 11 (01:01:07):
How does that make any sense?

Speaker 48 (01:01:09):
Yeah, No, I agree with you. And you know these
magive campuses, there's there's not enough money ever to actually
put a doord in every single campus. So I personally
am very supportive of the Marshall program, the Guardian program.
Uh and actually, honestly, just on a second amendment and
safety for the kids. If you have a teacher that

(01:01:32):
is very comfortable in their realm of carrying a gun,
is a responsible gun owner that they know that you know,
you've got to keep it where kids can't get to it,
and other factors such that, and the training is done.
I think that that's probably the quickest remedy for someone
that enters classroom with gun. I just personal believe that's
probably the most secure environment you can put. You can

(01:01:54):
never secure a facility where something like this can't happen,
but if you have someone.

Speaker 5 (01:02:00):
Once it does, and you can deter that.

Speaker 48 (01:02:04):
Event immediately by having a gun in the classroom with
that person that walks in the door. To be frank,
most teachers are not comfortable in that room. And we
left those decisions to the districts because these communities they
know their school boards and their school boards and other
communities better.

Speaker 9 (01:02:22):
Than we do.

Speaker 5 (01:02:23):
So he gave them that out.

Speaker 48 (01:02:24):
Now, you know, is that a good caller bad call
time will tell I can tell you. Valdi had a
teacher across from the hall in a room that sat
through the whole unfortunately, or listened or heard the whole
thing go down, and her comment was is I'm very comfortable.

Speaker 5 (01:02:39):
I wish I'd had my gun.

Speaker 48 (01:02:41):
And so that just sets the stage for if I'm
in a district and a superintendent in a school board
and in comfortable with guns and can provide training to
make sure that those gun owners are gun carriers in
the school classrooms would be responsible. Now caveat there is
we've allowed thugs in the classrooms to where there is violence,

(01:03:03):
there is intimidation, and the idea that a teacher could
be commandeered in a gun be effectively.

Speaker 5 (01:03:13):
Secured by the wrong person. I get it. It's a
real deal. These kids are these are not.

Speaker 48 (01:03:19):
The same kids that I was I was when I
grew up.

Speaker 7 (01:03:21):
It goes back to school boards, so ultimately, doesn't it.
I mean, what they determined and I know in rural
areas where people are very comfortable with guns, a lot
of them are very well trained coaches and anyone else.
You have a school board, the demands that maybe the
county sheriff or the county provided, so then that takes
somebody out of circulation in communities where they can't afford

(01:03:43):
to give up their own police force in order to
protect the school.

Speaker 11 (01:03:47):
The whole thing is just crazy.

Speaker 5 (01:03:49):
It is crazy.

Speaker 48 (01:03:51):
You know, it's a lost world with simple people doing
really horrible things.

Speaker 5 (01:03:54):
But I would say the rule started.

Speaker 48 (01:03:56):
The conversation with guns on campus, and they are familiar
with guns.

Speaker 5 (01:04:01):
Most kids are familiar with guds in world Texas.

Speaker 48 (01:04:04):
That the unfortunate thing the sheriff may be out on
a dog call in the county and something go down in.

Speaker 5 (01:04:10):
A school district.

Speaker 48 (01:04:12):
It's a drive, you know, this typically makes distance.

Speaker 4 (01:04:17):
The adage has always been when when seconds matter, the
police are minutes away, and in some cases many many
minutes away, as you're talking about in these rural areas.
And so that's the that's the reality. That's the reason why.

Speaker 48 (01:04:28):
Let's talk about hardening asks. If we can't put a
gun in a teacher's hand and classroom to neutralize that threat.
Then the second best thing is physical lockdown of that
classroom immediately. So there is technology out there, and I
pushed and had the conversation panic button from the teacher's
desk that hits the administrative switchboard, if you will, that

(01:04:50):
immediately locks every classroom down as soon.

Speaker 4 (01:04:53):
As and of course as we saw it youll day
though the concern would be, Senator, you know, if the individual,
if the shooter is locked inside one of those classrooms
with his now defenseless targets.

Speaker 48 (01:05:04):
This would this would prevent that person to get in there.
And now, unfortunately, Rite if actually the threat wasn't wasn't
revealed until actually in the classroom.

Speaker 5 (01:05:12):
Let's stay clear about uvality.

Speaker 48 (01:05:14):
Let's just be very clear. If not for the inaction
of training that had occurred by six different individuals on
six different events prior to that guy being in the classroom.

Speaker 5 (01:05:27):
There would not been a problem.

Speaker 48 (01:05:28):
First of all, when he killed his grandmother, any nine
to one one service call or any acknowledgeable of that, they're.

Speaker 5 (01:05:35):
Supposed to lock down schools within the region.

Speaker 48 (01:05:37):
Secondly, when he entered the bargage on the campus of
that school, classrooms should have been locked down. Thirdly, he
entered the building with an unlocked door. Should have never
been unlocked. Fourthly, the classroom door was not secured. Once
all of those were going on, it wasn't even a senator.

Speaker 4 (01:05:56):
There's nothing, there's nothing I want to do less than
interrupt you right now. These are very points, but I'm
being told we've got to get out of here to
our break. So I do apologize for that, Senator. Thank
you for the information, state, Senator Charles Perry. Very important conversation,

Texas Governor Greg on CNN pointing out the facts. Joe
Biden came out of the basement yesterday to tell well,
let's talk about Donald Trump and what a danger he is.

Speaker 5 (01:10:11):
He means what he says we don't take them seriously.

Speaker 35 (01:10:13):
He means him all the stuff about if we lose,
there'll be a bloodbath.

Speaker 7 (01:10:19):
Yeah, predicting that Trump will cause a civil war. Trump
in his bloodbath comments bloodbath for America. He wasn't talking
about violence. He was talking about policies and how it's
going to kill the American family and their.

Speaker 4 (01:10:34):
Abilities to specifically the automotive industry. That's what that whole
thing was about.

Speaker 7 (01:10:38):
Yeah, Biden. Of course on CBS, they just led him
through that. Six point thirty five is our time. First
day of school in several districts today, including Fort Bend,
Humble and Magnolia ISD. And we have talked about how
they're not all in compliance with the Texas law requiring
armed personnel at every school. We'll have more in that

H polling, most Texans support school choice, including minorities supporting it.
The biggest opposition is coming from guests who white Democrats.

Speaker 12 (01:11:15):
So how has such a small segment of the voters
stopped school choice?

Speaker 49 (01:11:19):

them at home.

cannot read.

Speaker 1 (01:11:41):

some of their engineers the new spacecraft is safe to

Fund Us Radio seven kt rh OK six thirty eight.
Now Bob Francin for Jimmy once again. And yeah, one
of those top stories that we have had for you
this morning is this AI base by being biased against conservatives.
Did you see share? I'm sure you have the new Google?
What is theirs called Google? BA Gemini Gemini think it

(01:14:54):
is the new commercial. Allow me to reintroduce myself. You
remember why they have to reintroduce introduce themselves, right, Google's
Gemini AI when they originally launched, it was the one
that was programmed to spit back the most woke things
you can possibly imagine, including pictures. Draw a picture or
show a picture of George Washington. George Washington was black

(01:15:18):
in the picture. Show me a picture of an Irish family,
and it would show a collection a hodgepodge of you know,
I don't know, Indian or people who would generally be
described as brown and the black and brown vernacular people
talk about, but brown families as Irish and so on
and so forth. There was so much of an emphasis
on identity, politics and identity period that it was like laughable,

(01:15:42):
It was comical, and they had to pull it, and
they did for the last several months. Now now they're
quote unquote reintroducing it. Is anybody trust Google anymore now
than they did before, particularly when it comes to their AI,
I certainly hope not, because you're in for a rude awakening.
Google is the most powerful and ultimately, in my view,
the most dangerous company in the world because they control

(01:16:03):
the flow of information. They control what you see and
what you do not see. They spike stories and search
results that they don't want you to have, and they
promote and push onto the first page top two or
three things that they want you to know or that
they want you to believe, even if it's not true.

Speaker 5 (01:16:20):
Good.

Speaker 7 (01:16:20):
Yeah, and a judge rule that they are guilty of
that the search engine, how they've cornered the market and
the Sherman any Truss lact and yeah, they've been found
guilty of monopoly and of course are going to challenge that.

Speaker 11 (01:16:32):
It'll go to the Supreme Court too.

Speaker 4 (01:16:34):
Yeah, but they really have and you know what, they've
been successful at a chair because nobody says search something.

Speaker 5 (01:16:38):
They say google it. Google is the word, it's the verb.

Speaker 4 (01:16:41):
And I think that's so dangerous because again they are
so blatant in their bias and whether it's AI or
just the search engine itself. So I tell people all
the time, don't use Chrome. There are plenty of browsers.
Don't use Google for searching. There are plenty of search
engines as well. Do not give them the power and
the money that they make from that. Okay, six forty

Jennifer from Channel eleven reminding me that the school buses

you gotta stock for school buses. We look for that
wreck on the Southwest Freeway. Just put past Hillcroft on

apparently the toad trucks have already ninjaed that you have
some backups now from Hillcroft northbound. And also we cleared

(01:20:21):

was minor left line. We're still packed from the belt,

OK six fifty two. We got the timeline contest coming
up here in a couple. But if you woke up
this morning and check your social media and check to
see what's trending, and you see the words olin valor
bouncing around there, and you're wonder, in one the world
is that all about? Stolen valor is about just about
one of the worst things that a person can be
accused of. We revere our military heroes, those who go
to war, those who put their lives on the line,

(01:22:13):
whether they are actually incombat or not. If they're in
a combat zone they could have been shot and killed.
We support that, which is why when somebody claims to
have been a combat in a combat zone. Who claims
to have been at war and they haven't been. It
is just so egregious. Well, this is the reason why
stolen valor is trending in your social media right now.

Speaker 28 (01:22:33):
Gave the money back, and I'll tell you what I
have been doing. I've been voting for common sense legislation
that protects a Second Amendment. But we can do background checks,
we can do CDC research, we can make sure we
don't have reciprocal carry amongst states, and we can make
sure that those weapons of war that I carried in
war is the only place where those weapons were.

Speaker 4 (01:22:49):
That's the vice presidential candidate for the Democrat Party, Tim Walls,
proclaiming that he carried a weapon of war. This is
all a part of the big rant he was going
on against the Second Amendment. He says he carried a
weapon of war while at war. This wasn't the only
time that he claimed to have.

Speaker 5 (01:23:05):
Been in war. It does need to be addressed.

Speaker 31 (01:23:08):
What's your background and how did somebody from Nebraska end
up in Minnesota?

Speaker 28 (01:23:11):
Yeah, well my wife's from Minnesota, so she took me there. Actually,
it was based on the educational system in Minnesota. Was
one that we kind of aspired to teach in, so
I ended up in southern Minnesota. My wife's been there
for many generations.

Speaker 11 (01:23:23):
And your military background.

Speaker 28 (01:23:25):
I spent twenty four years in the National Guard. Some
of that full time I was an artillery man. I
deployed in support of Operation and During Freedom. My battalion
provided based security throughout the European theater from Turkey to
England in the early stages of the war in Afghanistan,
and that same battalion is now in Iraq at this time.

Speaker 4 (01:23:43):
That was in two thousand and seven. This was Tim
Walls in two thousand and seven saying that he deployed
in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, and that his battalion
provided base security throughout the European theater from Turkey to
England in the early stages of the war in Afghanistan,
and that that battalion is now in Iraq at this time.
He never ever did any of those things.

Speaker 5 (01:24:03):
When he was.

Speaker 4 (01:24:04):
Threatened with deployment, in other words, ordered to deploy, he quit.
He had been twenty four years in he had the
opportunity to leave so he wouldn't have to go to war,
and that's exactly what he did. And for the last
twenty years or so he has been proclaiming that he
served in an operational support as you just heard there,

(01:24:25):
and been deployed to the Middle East. So it is
a complete travesty that he and they continue to argue
this while then condemning jd Vance and saying that Jadi Vance, well,
he never served either.

Speaker 5 (01:24:40):
Actually this is literally what one of the.

Speaker 4 (01:24:43):
Harris Walls surrogance, if you will, went on MSNBC to
say that I've never heard of jd Vance being in uniform.

Speaker 5 (01:24:53):

the equivalent of allowing Joe to hide in his basement
all throughout the twenty twenty campaign under the guise of

COVID is not out. There's no outrage, there's there's no
indignation at the fact that Harris and Walls have yet
to do an interview. I'm sure there's one coming, but
it's gonna be by a friendly interviewer, which is fine.
But when are they gonna be asked about the very
things that they have said and advocated for?

Donald Trump's running made j d Vance campaigning in Wisconsin,
going after Democrat VP nominee Tim Walls, who was confronted
about his military record yesterday but ignored those questions from reporters.
More tellingly, though, he's being called out by those who
actually served in his unit that he abandoned when ordered
to Iraq, his.

mainstream media, though, Kamala Harris has gone from being now
an unpopular VP to actually leading Donald Trump in the
polls for the presidency in two weeks.

Speaker 12 (01:30:13):
Donald Trump is calling the media out for trying to
guess light America into liking Harris.

Speaker 3 (01:30:18):
They're trying to.

Speaker 13 (01:30:19):
Build her up to the next Margaret that's your liberal version,
and I don't believe it's going to happen.

Speaker 12 (01:30:24):
Texas Congressman Wesley Hunt told KTRH the media isn't going
to stop covering for Harris anytime soon.

Speaker 14 (01:30:30):
What we have to focus on is knowing that she
is not going to do any interviews. They kept biding
the basement in twenty twenty. They're going to keep her
off TV for the next ninety days.

Speaker 12 (01:30:40):
Hunt says Republicans should combat this by focusing on pointing
out how radical Harris is and trying to win over
independent voters. Ethan Buchanan News Radio seven forty KTRH.

Fort Bend and Humble ISD among those starting school today,
and new research showing that half of all Texas school
districts have adopted what's called the good cause exception to

(01:31:09):
get out of having armed guards on campus. See, they
didn't fund it for these schools.

Speaker 15 (01:31:17):
It was woefully underfunded. And my honest opinion that said,
there was funding in several bills throughout the multiple sessions
that year that literally were killed due to the voucher conversation.

Speaker 7 (01:31:29):
Yeah, they got killed again by the House Senator Charles
Perry there. He says lawmakers are going to fix it
after school choice passes next year because they have the
votes to do it now thanks to the primaries. Fort
ben ISD is in compliance. HID is not school costs, food, energy,

(01:31:50):
that's enough that everyone's dealing with. But now if you're
going back to school, uh oh.

It's now seven oh six, high interest rates, lower consumers spending,
just two more indicators and all these job losses. What's
really happening to the American economy?

Speaker 19 (01:32:45):
There are many indicators that the US economy is in
much worse condition than most people think, and it's certainly
in worse condition than the stock market up until last
week had been indicating.

Speaker 7 (01:33:00):
Sc Karnick at the Heartland Institute says, don't believe the

Radio seventy ktrh.

Speaker 4 (01:34:58):
Okay, it is eight minutes after seven OCL. Good Thursday
morning to you, Bob France in for Jimmy once again.
You know, we're spending a lot of time talking about
the Democratic ticket. Some are calling it the most radical
ticket in American history, history of presidential politics. Kamala Harris
by far the most left of senator in the history
of the country, far more left than Bernie Sanders, who

(01:35:22):
calls himself a socialist. Tim Walls is proving to be
if you look at his record, every bit is radical.
As the governor of Minnesota is. Kamala Harris is so
when you talk about an extreme ticket. I'm talking about
an extreme ticket. But is Kamala Harris a straight up communist.
Elon Musk, one of the richest men in the world
and the man who bought Twitter slash x in order

(01:35:43):
to restore free speech to social media to at least
some extent, tweeted yesterday this Kamala Harris is quite literally
a communist. She wants not merely equal opportunity, but equal outcomes.

Speaker 5 (01:35:57):
And this is chilling.

Speaker 52 (01:35:59):
It has to be about a goal of saying everybody
should end up in the same place. And since we
didn't start in the same place, some folks might need
more equitable distribution giving resources based on equity understanding that
we fight for equality, but we also need to fight
for equity understanding not everyone starts out at the same place.

Speaker 1 (01:36:19):
So there's a big.

Speaker 52 (01:36:19):
Difference between equality and equity. Equality suggest often everybody.

Speaker 11 (01:36:26):
Should get the same thing.

Speaker 52 (01:36:29):
Well, that often assumes everybody started out in the same place,
as opposed to equity, which is everyone should end up
in the same place. And if you then understand not
everybody started out in the same place, you understand some
people need.

Speaker 4 (01:36:44):
More This This is something that should honestly be automatically
disqualifying for anybody who wants to lead a capitalist country,
somebody who says she wants to destroy capitalism, destroy free
market economy, destroy opportunity, achievement, and advance. It's meant so
that everybody, regardless of their effort, ends up in the

(01:37:05):
same place. That is the literal definition of communism. It's
a repackaged version of Karl Marx, from each according to
his ability, to each according to their needs. This is
literally what this woman who wants to be president of
the United States believes. She said so on multiple occasions.
You notice different volume of those. Those are all different clips.

(01:37:25):
She has said it again and again and again. And
any American who votes for that is literally voting to
waive the Chinese communist flag over the White House or
maybe the old Soviet flag, because that's literally what she
stands for, and everybody needs to know it. Seven to ten,
we also need to know how to get from here
to there, like that's your job.

Speaker 5 (01:37:44):
Well, that's fun.

Let's go to Crosby again. Hey Crosby, help me out

Maybe they're moving my ex wife's house again. It rolls inbound.
There's nothing wrong with that. Inbound we're looking at twenty

is a wide load. Is the front door keeps changing,
it keeps going further inbound and the tip line, you know,

Windows solutions. Now back to Jimmy and Scherah with the
info you need to take on the day.

Speaker 4 (01:40:18):
So it's still a little flashback here to twenty nineteen
when Kamala Harris said this about the border wall that
President Trump still wanted to build.

Speaker 52 (01:40:27):
Well, it's a height of irresponsibility for the commander in
chief to suggest that we have to build a wall
across our southern border because there are terrifts who are
trying to invade the country.

Speaker 5 (01:40:43):
It couldn't be farther from the.

Speaker 19 (01:40:44):
Truth, all right.

Speaker 4 (01:40:45):
First of all, earlier this week we learned that, yeah,
the Biden Harris border allowed.

Speaker 5 (01:40:51):
Ninety nine ninety nine.

Speaker 4 (01:40:53):
Known terrorists on the terror watch list to come into
this country and stay in the last three and a
half years. Those the ones that we know about. But
she said that border wall wouldn't be needed for such
a thing. Well, her running mate Tim Walls said this.

Speaker 28 (01:41:07):
Knowing that he's not gonna do anything. He talks about
this wall, I always say, let me know how hi
it is. It's twenty five feet, then I'll invest in
the thirty foot ladder fast.

Speaker 4 (01:41:15):
So she says there's no need for a wall. He said,
if there is a wall, we're gonna build ladders. I'll
invest in a ladder company to build taller ladders. What
in the living hell is going on with this party?
They literally want the invasion of the United States to
commence or to continue.

Speaker 5 (01:41:31):
She was the borders are He's worse than she is.

Speaker 4 (01:41:34):
And we're going to talk about it with Mike Banks
coming up after we do trafficking weather.

Speaker 5 (01:43:23):
That's Tim Walls.

Speaker 4 (01:43:24):
The could be would be one heart beat away from
the president'sy choice of Kamala Harris joining US now as
Texas borders are Mike Banks, Mike, good morning.

Speaker 25 (01:43:33):
Good morning.

Speaker 53 (01:43:34):
Thanks you for having back on.

Speaker 4 (01:43:35):
So if we thought that Kamala was radical and refusing
to do her job on securing the southern border, that
which with which she was tasked when she joined Joe
Biden in January of twenty twenty one, mile my here
comes Tim Wallas to say, hold my beer. He's more
radical on the border than she is, isn't he.

Speaker 53 (01:43:53):
You're absolutely right, And speaking of Kamala Harris, you know,
if I had her record, I'd be running from the title.
Borders are as well. Fortunately for the state of Texas,
we've had just an amazing amount of success. And so
it's a title that I'm going to probably stand behind
here in Texas. And you're speaking of vance, speaking of walts,

(01:44:13):
build a ladder to fight the wall that's designed to
keep as you said, terrorI styles. And we talk about
the ninety nine terrorists. That's ninety nine terrorists that they
released after they had them in custody. That doesn't count
the over three hundred and eighty four that they know
have entered the country and that they did not release.
So you know, you're looking at well, you know, coming

(01:44:35):
up on five hundred either known terrorists or terrorists on
the art or individual the terrorist watch list, and a
guy wants to be the vice president of the United
States and he wants to accommodate them coming into the country.
It's just absurd.

Speaker 7 (01:44:48):
Yeah, you know, that's why I always make this point
about issues they want us to talk about the issues.
I say that derisively because it's really the actions and
what they do and what they've done as border zone
for Texas, how are you going to combat the fact
that California they're flying these people out who are coming
in through California and now flying them into Texas.

Speaker 53 (01:45:12):
And so, you know, one of the things we've done is,
you know, we've decreased the traffic by eighty seven percent
in Texas. And so we had a problem when we
first started shutting down Alpaso where the illegal immigration would
happen in New Mexico and then turn around and come.

Speaker 5 (01:45:28):
Right back in.

Speaker 53 (01:45:29):
And we were able to resolve that by building some
barrier that's between the two states. And so one of
the things we're going to do is we're going to
look at legislation on how we can prevent bringing someone
into the country. If you look at SB four, which
may be tied up in the courts, it's you know,
we feel very good about it. We feel that definitely,
you know, falls in the constitution and that would make
it illegal for them to be in the state of Texas.

(01:45:51):
And so we're going to continue working on legislation to
protect Texas and we're going to continue shoring up any
of the you know, the the weaknesses that we may
find somewhere along the border. I think the biggest thing
is is that as long as we can provide a
consequence for the illegal action, that's what's going to help
continue to drive down that illegal traffic in the state

(01:46:11):
of Texas well.

Speaker 4 (01:46:12):
And just to underscore, Mike Banks, what you're talking about
being proud to where the title of borders are for
Texas compared to Kamala Harris with the federal government, I mean,
are we still waiting for the outcome of court cases
that the federal government has sued you and sued the
state governor Abbott in the state of Texas for daring
to secure the border, for putting the buoyez in the river,
for putting up the razor wire, and so on and

(01:46:35):
so forth.

Speaker 5 (01:46:35):
They sued to make you stop that.

Speaker 4 (01:46:38):
That's not just not trying to keep the illegals out,
it is literally saying we want to help them come in.

Speaker 25 (01:46:44):
You know, you're absolutely right.

Speaker 53 (01:46:45):
It's like we're inviting an invasion into the to the country.
Then we're going to sue any state or the only
state really that is doing anything to prevent it from happening.
Just think of where we're at. It's like up and
down and left is right. You're going to sue a
state for enforcing the law that you refuse to enforce.

Speaker 5 (01:47:05):
It's absurd.

Speaker 53 (01:47:05):
So yes, in the lawsuits, we just had a hearing
from the fifth or decision from the fifth earlier last week.
Our buoys have never been removed from the water since
the day we put them in. They are still there.
They're gonna stay. We were sued for placing wire along
the river. We've we've been in court for that. Our

(01:47:27):
wire is still there. We have not had a the
federal government cut or Tampa with our wire since that
landed in court. And so and then as before, which
we have absolutely no doubt is very is constitutional and
is lawful. So we're going to continue to do that.
But yeah, you're absolutely right. Not only are we fighting
a legal immigrant invasion into the state, but at the

(01:47:49):
same time we're fighting our own federal government trying to
prevent us from enforcing the laws.

Speaker 7 (01:47:55):
Expecting more, there's a surge expected before November. And I
don't see why even if Trump were elected. I mean,
they still have free reign up all the way until
the time of the inauguration.

Speaker 11 (01:48:07):
What will Texas be doing in this eera?

Speaker 53 (01:48:12):
And so you know, I talk about having decreased the
illegal injuries into Texas b eighty seven percent. We're taking
this time right now to shore up the rest of
our defenses to find areas where we still have traffic
coming across and prepare for that because you're absolutely right. Listen,
whether you know in my professional opinion of over doing
this over year after year, is that whether Trump is

(01:48:33):
elected or whether he doesn't get elected, you're going to
see a massive push before the elections because the mentality
is going to be get in before he becomes a
president and stops this, or once he's elected, definitely get
in before he's sworn into office. And so we do
expect an increase in traffic. We're prepared for it. We're
going to continue to push. We're going to push that PA,

(01:48:55):
you push that traffic away from Texas. And again, the
heat of this process is to become the greatest resistance
and provide the most consequence so that the legal immigration
doesn't want to take place in the state of Texas.

Speaker 4 (01:49:10):
Sadly, not just the greatest resistance, but the only resistance,
because you're getting no help at all from the Feds.
The exact opposite Mike Banks, Texas porters are wearing that title.

Speaker 5 (01:49:17):
Probably Mike, thank you for the time they give them.

advantage of a gigantic loophole.

Speaker 31 (01:51:40):
That comes as no surprise to political strategist Raven Harrison,
who says AI models will only get more radical to
try and save the Democrat Party, and it.

the Democrats. Mandy Drogan with Next Generation Texas says it's
the taxpayer funded lobbyist who are paying for all this.
After the primary, Zoe, Governor Abbott now has enough votes,

(01:54:33):
he says, to get vouchers school vouchers passed next year.

Speaker 11 (01:54:37):
Seven thirty five is our time.

Speaker 7 (01:54:40):
The liberal New York Times reporting that Kamala Harris would
be open to discussing an arms embargo against Israel even
as that war is underway. Why would she do it
well to exchange that for the support of the so
called uncommitted movement. You know, the voters who say they're uncommitted,
they're Muslim and ear voters in Michigan. Meantime, in the UK,

(01:55:03):
there are more protests after the gruesome stabbing murders of
three girls at a dance class last week. Now you
have a group calling itself the Muslim Defense League starting
to attack their protesters who are already battling with police.

(01:55:26):
Seven thirty six is our time. Tropical Storm Debby made
its second landfall overnight in South Carolina. It's now moving
as far north as Vermont this weekend, expecting inches of
rain there. The tropics becoming more active right now, right
on time. According to Texas State climatologist John Nielsen Gammon, Yeah.

Speaker 40 (01:55:46):
It starts getting into year about now. Activity is pretty
light from the beginning of August. It starts ramping up
until peak in early September.

Speaker 11 (01:55:54):
Yeah. He says.

Speaker 7 (01:55:55):
The La Nina warming pattern that was supposed to develop
has not yet started, So while this season will be busy,
he says it's not going to be as dramatic as
we had earlier predicted. Colorado State meteorologists even downgraded their
seasonal forecast earlier this week.

Speaker 11 (01:56:12):
But as we all know very.

Speaker 7 (01:56:14):
Well here, it only takes one to do the damage.
It is now seven thirty seven. The Astros beat the
Rangers six to four in Arlington. So now we're leading
Seattle in the American League West by a half game,
and we start a weekend series in Boston tomorrow night.

Speaker 1 (01:56:45):
Jeep Bob, This someth crazy on news Radio seven.

Speaker 4 (01:56:49):
KTRH, seven thirty seven. Now, as we continue on Houston's
Morning News, good morning to you.

Speaker 5 (01:56:56):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (01:56:57):
News is flying around fast and furious this morning, and
so much of it bad, so much of it having
to do with just just a radical, radical presidential election
cycle that we're in right now, after a radical hand
pick nominee who never received share. By the way, I
don't mean to brag, but did you know that I
won as many primaries this this election season as Kamala Yeah, yeah, yeah,

(01:57:19):
I got just as many of primary votes as she did. Anyway,
the radical was picked, and then of course she picked
her radical running mate alongside of her, and it's it's
quite an astounding thing when you look at what he
is being accused of right now, I just taught We
talked at length about Kamala Harris and her communist leanings

(01:57:42):
and her statement that everyone should end up in the
same place. In other words, government controlled wealth. They'll distribute
just a little bit of kernels of corn to everybody,
and everybody has the same amount of matter heart you try.
Her running mate says that there should be no First
Amendment and the government should decide what people are allowed
to say and what they're not allowed to say. Does
not believe in the First Amendment. If it's disinformation, as

(01:58:03):
the government determines, or if it's hate speech, it should
be silenced, it should be censored. All of this is
going on a Kamala as this guy pretends to stand
for liberty and pretends that he fought for this country.
He spent twenty four years in the National Guard and
he never once went to war. The one time he
was deployed to go to war, he ran screaming from

(01:58:26):
it and retired rather than go. And all of this
is now kind of, you know, finally being being brought
brought to bear and I wonder with this record, and
there's a great piece at the Conservative treehouse dot com.
Kamala's VP pick, Tim Wallas, has a history of embellishing
his military record and claiming fought in Iraq. I'm wondering
if this guy's gonna make it any further than Joe

(01:58:47):
Biden did. I wonder if they might have a reset
here and say he is drawing so much negative because
of all of the you know, stuff he has stood
for that we can't possibly run him. It's not doesn't
seem to be possible. But then again, I didn't think
they would have done what they did to Joe Biden either.

Speaker 7 (01:59:04):
Well, are you surprised by any of this?

Speaker 9 (01:59:09):
Not?

Speaker 5 (01:59:09):
Yes, and no, you know, I mean outraged.

Speaker 11 (01:59:12):
I mean, you know, no.

Speaker 4 (01:59:14):
But it's a little surprised too, because every time you
think it can't you know, it can't get any weirder,
it can't get any more bizarre, they say, hold my
beer and a way we go. I mean, she had
a chance to pick stability for her ticket with Jos Shapiro,
but she wouldn't do it.

Speaker 5 (01:59:29):
She wouldn't bow to the anti Semites.

Speaker 4 (01:59:32):
I'm sorry she did bow, and she would not challenge
the anti Semites in her party. The anti Semitism is
so deep and thick that they would not allow her
to choose Joshapiro, partly because of that fact that he
is a Jew, and partly because of the fact that
he's really, really moderate, and she would look so much
more extreme by comparison. Now with Tim Walls here, she
actually looks almost moderate by comparison, which might be part

(01:59:54):
of the game plan.

Speaker 7 (01:59:55):
Well, all you have to do is just keep speaking
the truth. The whole point is the truth, isn't it. Well,
that's what we do. We drive you kind of hard
when you don't have enough information. Right, what are some
of the people who expose them? Yeah, okay, let's expose
Let's expose the left for what it is.

Speaker 4 (02:00:13):
Yep, that is exactly what we have to do. The
voters need to know everything that we know about common Land,
about Tim Wallas, and we'll keep we'll keep signing that alarm. Okay,
seven forty, let's hit the alarm on the roads. Hopefully not,
we don't have any.

ninja shortly about a twelve minute scunch going this way. Now,
let's work our way up into downtown. Southwest Freeway coming

(02:00:45):
into the canyon northbound at Maine. That's a wreck. We've
moved that over to a left side. You also have
a stall. This is northbound Jackson Street right in front
of the ballpark. And this is squishing up two freeways
both your Southwest Freeway all the way from Greenway, plus
really your break start from West Park if you connect.
That twenty five minute loss on the Southwest Freeway two

(02:01:05):
eighty eight is not bad, but that ramp to forty
five is horrible as always. Also, i've got a stall
downtown Pierce Elevated right at that Dallas Street squeeze.

Speaker 5 (02:01:13):

Speaker 1 (02:01:51):

of course that's going to make it feel even hotter

advisory today and I suspect we'll see that again. So
nice dry weekend, but just not one you want to
spend a lot of time outside.

hot tomorrow. It's gonna be hot throughout the weekend, probably
around triple digits through Sunday, and then maybe in the Monday,
we'd be looking at about a twenty percent chance of rain,
might cool it down into the mid nineties. But yeah,

expect at this time of the year. And right now

KTRH time saving traffic connect on the ten Waltz.

Speaker 8 (02:04:53):
It's not even the positions that he's taken, though certainly
he has been a far left radical. You know what
really bothers me about Tim Waltz as a marine who
served his country in uniform when the United States Marine Corps,
when the United States of America asked me to go
to Iraq to serve my country, I did it. I
did what they asked me to do it, and I
did it honorably, and I'm very proud of that service.
When Tim Waltz was asked by his country to go

(02:05:14):
to Iraq, you know what he did. He dropped out
of the army and allowed his unit to go without him,
a fact that he's been criticized for aggressively by a
lot of the people that he served with.

Speaker 4 (02:05:23):
That to me, shap is the biggest part of this story,
stolen valor is trending all over the social media this morning,
it was yesterday. It's not just that Tim Walls didn't
go into combat. If you didn't get assigned and deployed,
you didn't get to say it doesn't mean you risked
any less. If you were a part of the armed forces,
whether it be Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, or National Guard,

(02:05:48):
Coast Guard, Space Force. I don't care if you are
a part of it. You have my respect, you have
everybody's respect. And if you don't get deployed, that doesn't
make you any less of a soldier. Unless you get
deployed and run, unless you are told your unit is
going to a rock and you say, yeah, I think

(02:06:08):
I've done my time. I'm out of here. Everybody, good
luck with that. And then become a politician who tells
everybody that you did deploy, that you did fight, that
you did carry a weapon of war in a war,
and that and then telling people that you served in
as a support in an operation enduring freedom. Every single

(02:06:30):
thing this man has done is stealing the valory that
true American patriots and heroes veterans actually did.

Speaker 7 (02:06:38):
I agree with you wholeheartedly, and I'm glad. I mean
we were all over it yesterday and I'm glad that
we were. However, as that said, I don't want all
this focus on him to be giving her cover for
what she will do. She's at the top of the ticket.
She can jettison him. I wouldn't put anything pass that.

Speaker 4 (02:06:58):
Yeah, that's what I brought up last segment. You so
you think it is possible. It's pretty unlikely, but it
is possible.

Speaker 5 (02:07:03):
She could make a change.

Speaker 7 (02:07:04):
Well, they don't do anything according to the normal playbook here, No, not,
the regimes have been not these oligarchs and these people
who are in control of the Democrat Party.

Speaker 11 (02:07:13):
Now, huh.

Speaker 4 (02:07:14):
It would be very embarrassing for her to say, Yeah,
the first call that I made as the nominee is
to pick the wrong guy. It would be really really bad,
bad press for her, bad optics for her. But then again,
I mean, what's the alternative. Okay, fair enough, fair enough,
fair enough.

Speaker 7 (02:07:31):
These people are they've been out, they've been in control,
meaning our countries out of control.

Speaker 4 (02:07:37):
Quick condition here share a quick speculation about the Shapiro thing.
Because we talked about the fact that he's Jewish, we
know how the party feels about that, uh with you know,
worried about their their Muslim American and and uh Arab
American voters and so on and so forth. But Uh,
the other thing is I heard yesterday from several people
who are kind of dialed in, is that Josha Piro
pulled himself out of the running for that race because

(02:07:57):
he knew she is not what you.

Speaker 5 (02:08:00):
Want to be.

Speaker 11 (02:08:00):
He's toxic. She's toxic, and.

Speaker 4 (02:08:03):
That if he has any hopes of running for president
in twenty twenty eight, he cannot be tethered to her
and have suffered embarrassing loss now or god forbid, she
wins and he's got to serve. And he can't run
in twenty twenty eight either because he can't run against
the person that you know, he seconds on that ticket.
So that puts him up to twenty thirty two before
he can even think about running again. I heard he

(02:08:23):
may have pulled himself out of the running.

Speaker 7 (02:08:25):
Well, I think it's more that they realize that they
could not maybe win Pennsylvania, They couldn't cheat enough to
take Pennsylvania, and so now it's a matter of they've
got to go for Wisconsin. And they've got to go
for Michigan, and they felt like he was a better choice.
That's the way I view it. Of course, that would
be sensible. I don't know that anything that they do

(02:08:46):
is not is actually sensible. It's machiavellian.

Speaker 4 (02:08:50):
Yeah, I second you on that one as well. They
don't typically do things that are sensible. All right, that's
it for today. We're gonna have a lot more to
talk about tomorrow morning. I'll big time for Jimmy. We
will see you then. Everyone, have a great day. Bye bye,
