Speaker 1 (00:02):
This is US Radio seven forty kt RH Houston.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Vive Everywhere with the irtue.

Speaker 3 (00:09):
Now the latest news, weather and trap. It's more of
what matters to you. From the John Morris Services Studios.

Speaker 4 (00:17):
Well, good morning, five am is our time here in
Houston's Morning News. I'm Jimmy Barrett along with Sheriff Ryer
on our top stories as we get started this morning.
One campaign has substance, the other one is just a vibe.
The Democrats are ready to steal the election and coming
up at five oh eight Americans credit scores not that bad.
Details in the minutes ahead here in Houston's Morning News. First,

(00:38):
we're checking out that morning Vibe for the first time.
Here's sky Mike.

Speaker 5 (00:41):
One deal on one forty six northbound before the Harbor
and Bridge. This will be two twenty five. It's a
stall truck. They moved it over to the side. I
think the super sized Ninjas may have to pick up
a right lane.

Speaker 4 (00:51):
I give that a few minutes.

Speaker 5 (00:52):
This is northbound one forty six, right before you do
all that merge in there with two twenty five. Everything
else rocks Skymichael a Generator super Center dot Com traffic center.

Speaker 4 (01:01):
From our KTRH Top tax Defenders, twenty four hour Weather
Center thunderstorm, some heavy rain possible today with a high
temperature right about eighty three. We'll get you to the
complete forecast when we talk to the Weather Channel in
about nine minutes. Right now seventy nine at your officials,
some of your weather station. News Radio seven forty KTRH.
It is time now for the news.

Speaker 6 (01:20):
Here's Sheriff Ryer and good morning everyone.

Speaker 7 (01:22):
It's now five oh one on news radio seven forty
KTRH and our top story this hour.

Speaker 8 (01:28):
Kamala Harris opened the border, suspended deportations on day one,
and stopped Donald Trump's remain in Mexico.

Speaker 7 (01:34):
Policy jd Vance there, donald Trump's running mate, talking about
policies during a campaign stop in Pennsylvania yesterday, stress policies
compared to the word solid of Kamala Harris.

Speaker 9 (01:48):
Doing it as one big team, understanding all of the
different parts that fit together to create a team.

Speaker 4 (02:00):
Good lover.

Speaker 7 (02:02):
Sorry, Harris was actually campaigning in front of high schoolers
in Hinesville, Georgia. What is this this dress rehearsal or
what Harris finally does a sit down interview kind of
a rehearsal there too, with CNN, of course Dana Bash
or her fawning media person. It's a pre tape, by

(02:25):
the way, and with her running mate Tim Walls carrying
the water for her there. She still hasn't done a
solo interview in news conference since forcing Joe Biden off
The ticket is five oh two. As for election security,
that's serious tampering with voter rolls, ineligible ballast, outright interference.
It's even worse this time than it was in twenty twenty.

Speaker 10 (02:47):
Unfortunately, Democrats are now directly fighting election security.

Speaker 11 (02:51):
We had a bill that required proof of citizenship for
voting the save AC one hundred and ninety eight Democrats
voted against it, and Chuck Schumer refuses to bring it
up on the Senate floor.

Speaker 10 (03:00):
That's New York Representative Claudia Tenny on Fox saying that
Democrats could go even further.

Speaker 11 (03:05):
Are the Democrats and Democrats states going to starve these
local governments and the state governments from having the resources
they need to watch what happens at the polls.

Speaker 10 (03:14):
R and D Chairman Michael Wattley says they've already filed
over one hundred lawsuits with regards to election integrity. Ethan
Buchannan News Radio seven forty KTRH.

Speaker 6 (03:23):
Doesn't do any good if the courts won't hear them.

Speaker 7 (03:25):
New numbers from you gov show that Donald Trump leads
Harris by five points among independent voters. That polling after
Robert F. Kennedy Junior dropped his candidacy. Kennedy now on
the Trump transition team. So why are so many on
the right excited about a liberal Democrat supporting Trump.

Speaker 12 (03:46):
I think it's interesting because rfk Junior is demonstrating that
the Trump campaign is anti establishment, which is a difficult
trick for former incumbent to poll.

Speaker 7 (03:56):
Yeah, Andy Establishment, pretty interesting journalism, fell Daniel Greenfield. He's
concerned Democrats who joined Trump now will ultimately fight him later.
Isn't that what politics is all about? Five oh four
is our time here in Texas. A new poll from
UH and Texas Southern says that the Ted Cruz Colin
Allred Senate race is closer than predicted.

Speaker 13 (04:20):
They have Cruise ahead by two point one percent. But
polls this early need to be taken with a grain
of salt.

Speaker 14 (04:25):
The attention that this race is really close is wrong.
He did have a close selection the last cycle, but
it wasn't a presidentially year and the circumstances were entirely different.

Speaker 13 (04:34):
Political analyst Bill Miller says Cruise has learned a lot
the last six years, and he might win by even
more than he did against Bedo.

Speaker 14 (04:41):
I hated at twenty eight and ten point race. At
the end of the day, Cruise isn't going to run
away with it, but it's not going to be a
mail bider like that.

Speaker 15 (04:48):
Though.

Speaker 13 (04:49):
He says Texas will remain red, but the Democrats won't
be shut out forever. Andrey Perard News Radio seven forty
k TRH.

Speaker 7 (04:56):
Texas House Speaker Dade Feelin, supposedly a Republican, has appointed
a new chief of staff. He's Mike Toomey, a longtime
Democrat donor and lobbyist.

Speaker 6 (05:05):
Since twenty fifteen.

Speaker 7 (05:06):
To me has given thousands of dollars to Democrats, including
Houston State Rep.

Speaker 6 (05:10):
Gene Wu.

Speaker 7 (05:11):
After all this was exposed, will Feelan now suddenly says well,
he supports school choice. He says he's going to make
it a priority in the next legislative session, though it
was Felan As speaker who killed it last year. Harris
County Precinct three Commissioner Tom Ramsay telling a local TV
station that he has repeatedly voted against giving any money

(05:34):
to a California company that was given a six million
dollar contract from Commissioner's court to handle nonviolent nine to
one one calls here. Well, that contract, this is what's
funny about it, awarded just months after Barbie Robinson left
her job with Sonoma, California that government to become executive
director of public Health here in Harris County, OH. The

(05:58):
emails published by the Houston Chronicle revealed that Robinson played
a key role in the contract that Harris County made
with Dema Consulting and Management DIMA, a California company currently
involved in an eleven million dollar billing scandal in its

(06:19):
home state.

Speaker 16 (06:21):
When that same California company is having huge issues in
California as a result of bailing practices, you know, the
question has to be raised is what are they now
doing in Aris County.

Speaker 7 (06:30):
And why did they get six million dollar contract? Attorney
Jared Woodville. There remember, three staffers of County Judge Alena
Haidago were indicted in a bid rigging scheme last year
that went all about COVID it's now five oh six.
UT Board of Regents has banned all schools in the
system from taking any public positions on politics or quote

(06:52):
issues of the day. This is after anti Israel protest
at UT Austin got out of hand. Those protests, however,
continue nationwide. Oh yeah, student activists arrested yesterday at the
University of Michigan as a promoted Hamas. Now the student

(07:14):
body has taken control of student government, suspending funding for
any student groups until guess what, Michigan administration agrees to
divest all business interests from Israel.

Speaker 6 (07:29):
Uh huh bydicts the kids take over.

Speaker 7 (07:33):
US Supreme Court yesterday blocked the Biden Harris Administration's latest
multi billion dollar student loan bailout. Several lawsuits are making
their way through the lower courts, and the High Court
said let's wait. Beginning an October, Chase Bank will ban
the buy now, pay later option with its credit cards.

Speaker 6 (07:53):
Bank rates.

Speaker 7 (07:53):
Greg McBride says, well, this could actually start a trend.

Speaker 17 (07:58):
It's a definite warning sign if using or trying to
use debt to pay for other debt, kind of robbing
Peter to pay Paul, and then that just a sign
you got to break the cycle.

Speaker 7 (08:07):
Yeah, many banks even allowing debit cards to be used
for buy now, pay later in increments later though, you know,
the credit charot train is still going. Five o eight
is our time. It was a big day for the Astros.

Speaker 4 (08:22):
Here's Alvarez hes two homers today and he smashes this
one pretty deep to center.

Speaker 5 (08:27):
Marsh is racing back at the Wall Sea letter A
three homer K for your don.

Speaker 6 (08:33):
Alvariz that call.

Speaker 7 (08:35):
In Sports Talk seven nineties, Spencer Arraghatty carried a no
hitter into the eighth inning. What a game. They beat
the Phillies ten to nothing. Hosting the Royals tonight. Pregame
at six on seven ninety. First pitch seven to ten,
and we'll join all of that action then here on
KTRH as well, stro is still leading Seattle by three
and a half games. I'm sure Ref Fryar on news

(08:55):
Radio seven forty KTRH.

Speaker 3 (08:59):
Houston's More News continues with Jimmy Arrett and Sheriff Fryer.

Speaker 4 (09:05):
Five and nine is our time, Houston's borning news here
and News Radio seven forty k t r ah. All right,
I meant I'm obsessed with these things, things like credit scores,
that kind of stuff. So I found this very interesting
because you know, all the stories we do share kind
of sounds like, you know, we're way over extended on
our credit, you know, we you know, people are having
a hard time paying their bills, and if that's the case,

(09:28):
you would think it'd be reflected in the credit score, right,
you would think that'd be a good place to go
and see how people are doing.

Speaker 7 (09:34):
Depends how they figure the credit score. Didn't they just
make it a little bit looser they might lately they
might have.

Speaker 6 (09:41):
You know, so it sounds it may sound better than
it really is.

Speaker 4 (09:44):
Yeah, it could be. Here is the average credit score
based on age. By the way, based on generations, As
you might expect, the lowest credit score goes to gen Z.
That's the eighteen to twenty six year olds. The average
score six sixty three, which is okay. But then again,
when you're eighteen to twenty six, you generally don't have
a lot of credit. You don't have a lot of

(10:05):
credit history. You probably you know, it's rare at that
age these days doing a home, for example, you may
have a couple of credit cards and that's all you've got,
or a student loan or something along those lines. Next
was the Millennial generation. Their average score six eighty three.
That's the twenty seven to forty two year olds. Again,
it's okay, it's not super grape. It's not bad either.

(10:25):
Your credit score could be as low as three hundred,
it could be his highs eight fifty. That's the range.
The next generation, what as far as highest credit score
was Generation X forty three to fifty eight year olds.
They had an averagecore of seven h five. Then came
to the Silent Generation seventy eight plus the average score
seven thirty eight. Baby Boomers have the highest credit score

(10:49):
average of seven forty. So your average boomer has a
credit score of seven hundred and forty out of a
possible eight hundred and fifty. That would be considered very good.
Usually I'm trying to remember where the line is for
the best possible interest rate. Generally speaking, the best terms
the higher your credit score, the better terms you generally

(11:10):
get on getting a loan, for example, on things like
interest rates. And I want to say the cutoff is
around seven sixty. Seven sixty is sort of the cutoff,
or if you have a credit score above seven, old
share is going to find out for sure. See see
if I'm guessing right seven, I want to think it's
maybe seven sixty, right around seven sixty as far as
you know, getting the better possible rates. But you know

(11:34):
it's a long way from eight to fifty. But then again,
you know, no very rare. To get an eight to fifty,
you'd have to have perfect credit. I think I attained
that once in my existence where I actually had that
for maybe you know, a couple of months, five eleven
time for traffic and whether it's together, we'll surprise you.
We have bunch guy mine. I have good credit. I
believe that. What's your scored? You know, yeah, it's up there.

Speaker 5 (11:55):
You know I need that little show sound by the
share going eh, not sure, but I am, yeah, I
know I have. I get credit anywhere. Let's go to
Let's take her downtown.

Speaker 18 (12:05):

minutes into downtown. Good going here, and let's go ahead

going up the Grab Parkway. It looks like they're working
on doing some kind of work on that ramp that
goes up to it. KT Freeway northbound, Meg from Keema,
I've got time for you, mikey.

rain with her.

Speaker 20 (13:21):
Oh my goodness, what is going on the UH At
least it's quiet right now. Folks watching a area of
low pressure in the Gulf of Mexico that is increasing
not only the moisture across Southeast Texas, but that possibility
of rain. Looking like a very soggy day today, So
be ready for some heavy rain at times widespread rain.

(13:45):
There could be some flooding that develops as a result,
at least localized flooding with some of those heavier downpours.
Eighty percent chance of getting wet today, keeping our temperatures

weather station, News Radio seven forty KTRH.

Speaker 3 (14:20):
It's Houston's Morning News, brought to you by New South
Windows Solutions. Now back to Jimmy and Sherah with the
info you need to take on the day.

Speaker 4 (14:29):
So one of the questions we've already pondered this morning.
Is RFK Junior being such a liberal? Would why is
this an advantage for Donald Trump to have him as
a part of the campaign. Because he is far left
on virtually every issue. There's two or three issues that
they really agree with. One of them is food safety.

(14:49):
And I've got somebody who thinks that food safety is
actually a really big issue, especially if you're trying to
appeal to suburban bombs born. That coming up next, first
of five twenty Traffic and weather together as we check
out the drive a game of sky Mike, let's take
it downtown.

Speaker 5 (15:02):
I've got I forty five Megan from Keema the first
banana sticker of the morning, as she showed me some
gravel and send. Somebody spilled something downtown on the Golf
Freeway northbound as you're hitting I sixty nine, and it
looks like some folks are hitting their bricks that aren't
paying attention. Watch out for them, watch out for the swerving,
watch out for the sudden stops and northbound.

Speaker 4 (15:20):
Let me put that in your navigation.

Speaker 5 (15:22):
The other side of forty five Pier Salvator looks good.
Iten down to the Dallas Street squeeze and the rest

nine at your officials Severe Weather Station. News Radio seven

(15:52):
forty k TRH. Time to catch up on some of
our top stories this morning.

Speaker 7 (15:56):
Your SHAREFF Good morning everyone is now five twenty two
on news Radio seven forty KTRHR. Headlines are sponsored by
Texas Mutual Insurance Magnolia. ISD backs down and now will
allow America Patriotic themes USA during football games. Federal prosecutors

(16:16):
have charged to European men with swatting dozens of members
of Commogress, a former president, and a president elect, all
unnamed by the sources. Now, McDonald's has unveiled its biggest
burger ever, fourteen ounce Big Arch. It includes the news
sauce created specifically for this burger, Big Arch.

Speaker 6 (16:38):
Yeah, you better go try it.

Speaker 7 (16:39):
Jimmy and then you can report back latest news anytime
for tight Owls Burger KTRH dot com. Our next update
won't be at the bottom of the hour.

Speaker 21 (16:49):
Oh Man Summer Life, traveling movies, bad weather.

Speaker 22 (16:54):
Happens here, Astro's scream Time, Inflation, the Election News Radio
seven forty Summer Life, KTRH.

Speaker 4 (17:03):
So, this expert who's named by the way, is Brook Rowlands,
CEO of America First Policy Institute. She thinks that the
partnership with RFK Junior could be a winner for Donald
Trump because one of his big issues, one of the
big hot button issues that they both agree on is
food safety and that's big with suburban of moms.

Speaker 23 (17:25):
I don't know that we yet understand what a potentially
transformative issue this is.

Speaker 6 (17:32):
Especially for moms.

Speaker 23 (17:33):
I have four kids, four kids at home, and this
is a really big deal in our house for this
generation of children, and to see that sort of attention.
You know, of course, immigration, economy, as you mentioned, foreign policy, abortion,
those are all really important issues. They're at the top
of the list, but this can be a sleeper issue
that could potentially change the outcome of this race.

Speaker 24 (17:56):
Your institution, America First Policy Institute, is parting with nurse
from all over America to try and preserve election to integrity,
working with states from Virginia to Idaho to help purge
non citizens from their voter rolls. As we are just
seventy days from election night Texas, Alabama, Virginia, Ohio, and Louisiana.

(18:20):
To me, it's what about the other forty five states broke.

Speaker 23 (18:27):
Look, we fought a revolution in seventeen seventy six on
the question of Americans deciding the future of America, right,
I mean that was the central question is who gets
to decide? And here we are again, and whether your
issue is border security or food safety or abortion, none

(18:50):
of that matters if we don't have secure elections. And
so that should now be everyone's number one issue. And
we've made great progress, I believe in the last several years.
I think we've got a lot more work to do.
But yes, we're working with governors around this country to
ensure that their elections are safe. It's not just in

(19:11):
the lawsuits, which is important. Recruiting poll walker's pole watchers
is extremely important, but having the governors as the guardians
at the gate. Under the founder's intention of the tenth
amendment in the Constitution and ensuring through executive order through
other action in their states that we're not allowing non
citizens to register to vote, that we're removing non citizens

(19:33):
from the voter registration lists, and that third we're training
our registrars in ballot security. Governor Younkin of Virginia, Governor
Little of Idaho, Governor Landry of Louisiana, just in the
last two weeks have all taken incredible steps forward on that.
So working with other governors around the country is a
key priority for us right now.

Speaker 4 (19:53):
Yeah, well, good luck working with the Democrat governors. The
governor of Michigan, Governor Bitchmer, is not allowing market to
get off the ballot.

Speaker 7 (20:02):
State rent legislators, and we just head earlier this morning,
we were talking about how many lawsuits the Republicans have
filed in trying the the RNC and trying to get
election integrity, and how they're shut down by Democrat judges. Yeah, oh, yeah, No,
the justice system is not playing nice.

Speaker 4 (20:20):
So they're not they're all on the same page when
it comes to this stuff. Five twenty six, It is
time to take a look at your money. Courdy Donaho,
Good morning, well.

Speaker 25 (20:28):
Good morning Jimmy, artificial intelligence chip maker and videos now
with its earnings and Wall streeters underwhelmed and video investors
have grown accustomed to these blowout quarters and the latest
numbers didn't quite cut it. However, it's not stopping investors.
This morning, stocks are hired Dow futures of two hundred
and ten points. Yesterday, stocks ended the day lower, with

(20:48):
tech shares leading the losses. The DAL fell one hundred
and fifty nine points. Big Lots is said to be
thinking about a potential bankruptcy filing. The company sells discount
furniture and home items, and shoppers have been spending less
on decorating their houses. Bloomberg has learned. The companies also
looking for investors to try to avoid Chapter eleven. Big
Lots has more than one hundred locations in Texas.

CYB thirty is our time here on Houston's Morning News.
I'm Jimmy Barrett, along as Sheriff Ryer Bunger. Top stories
as have our local school backs down on its anti
American position. Kamala and her support animal talked ton today
and coming up at five thirty eight kind of intrigued
me with that big art story shereck, here's my big question.

(22:07):
How big is the price for the big arch details
in the minutes ahead here on Houston.

Speaker 7 (22:11):
Well, well that's a very practical approach to take here,
and you know what, it's a really hard answer to find.

Speaker 4 (22:17):
More coming up though, first though, let's check out the
drive sky Mike's here.

Speaker 5 (22:21):
We got this deal on the East Text Freeway. I
just got this shot here. If you're playing the home
game with me, it's on T one two two nine.
This is the East Text Freeway at the North Beltway.
And some kind of fished anchory going on on the
outbound lanes here.

Speaker 4 (22:34):
I've got the flashy lights. I'm kind of blocked.

Speaker 5 (22:36):
You can see it better than I can hit my
tip line seven one three two one two t ips.
It's not causing a big slowdown just yet, but I
would like to know what side they're on, and you know,
it wouldn't hurt to know what they're doing.

Speaker 4 (22:48):
It kind of gives me a view of how long
it'll be there.

Speaker 5 (22:51):
Golf Freeway, we've got the sand and gravel meek from
Chemo with the banana stick er that is northbound on

it is seventy nine at your official severe Weather Station.

(23:25):
News Radio seven forty KTRH stimed out for the news.
Here's Sheriff Ryer.

Speaker 7 (23:30):
It's five thirty two on news radio seven forty KTRH
and our top story this hour, what's happening to Texas.
Patriotism in schools under threat? Most recently in Magnolia. Oh
my computer, just something strange.

Speaker 22 (23:45):
Sureut Magnolia High School administrators wanted to block pro USA
themes during football games because it would be too political.

Speaker 27 (23:54):
It's sad that in this day and time that when
somebody wants to be patriotic and they're shut down. I mean,
that is just absolutely ludicrous.

Speaker 22 (24:02):
That is Attorney David Starns, who says props to the
Magnolia High School parents for pushing back.

Speaker 27 (24:09):
That's what we need our parents to do. Family alarm
when things get crossed over the line and they get
into intrusion rather than policy.

Speaker 4 (24:17):
And that's all this was.

Speaker 22 (24:18):
The district did back down and is now allowing a
USA themed night. Jeff Biggs, News Radio seven forty kati
or H.

Speaker 7 (24:29):
That lawyers Starns, by the way, is one who represented
the Koons cheerleaders. Remember back of the twenty tens, they
won the right to use Bible versus on their run
through banners at football games. It's now five thirty three.
Kamala Harris finally sits down for a TV interview. Of
course it's on CNN, pre taped, and Tim Walts Walson
along at her side cover.

Speaker 28 (24:51):
This isn't even a tough interview. This is on CNN.
This is one of their media allies. She should take
this opportunity to show the American people that she can
handle hard questions.

Speaker 6 (25:01):
That you can lead.

Speaker 7 (25:02):
You mean Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders there on Fox.
Trump continuing to take questions one on one interviews, podcast,
you name it, he's doing it. He blames the left's rhetoric,
by the way, for his July thirteen attempted assassination in Pennsylvania.

Speaker 15 (25:20):
I also took a bullet, But maybe that bullet is
because of their rhetoric. You know, it's a really nasty rhetoric.

Speaker 7 (25:28):
Trump on with doctor Phil FBI is not giving us
much transparency about its investigation of July thirteenth.

Speaker 29 (25:36):
At this time, the FBI is not identified a motive,
nor any co conspirators or associates of crooks with advanced
knowledge of the attack.

Speaker 7 (25:47):
Or at least they won't let us know if they have.
FBI Assistant Director of National Security Bobby Wells. He says
the shooter researched multiple political figures at events in the
prior days, trying to spread it out here, and hyper
focused finally on the Trump rally. Wells also claimed there's
no evidence the shooter was directed by any foreign entities. Meantime,

(26:11):
Donald Trump and died it again this week a Jack
Smith grand jury in Washington, d C. But after all
these years of Republicans being bullied, censoreds canceled by the left,
the right is finally pushing back. The House Judiciary Committee
just helped shut down a leftist media watchdog group that
was steering advertising away from conservative content.

Speaker 30 (26:35):
What I was trying to do was essentially just issue
a rally cry to every Republican state a G office
out there, you know, try and provide some support for
the Republicans in Congress. There is a lot out there
trying to censor conservative speech, weed all the health that
we can get to fight back.

Speaker 7 (26:49):
Writer and host Josh Hammer there, he told the Washington
Watch podcast. More attorneys general need to follow the lead
of our Texas a G Ken Paxton in taking the
legal fight directly to the left and winning five point
thirty six is our time. Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez
Obrador AMLO Pause's relations with the US and Canadian embassies

(27:11):
in his country, upset over criticism about his proposal for
judicial reform in Mexico. Get This wants to include yearly
open elections for all federal judges.

Speaker 6 (27:24):
Oh wow.

Speaker 7 (27:25):
As for the border crisis, Governor Greg Abbas says, since
Biden Harris regime won't secure our country, Texas will continue
to do the job for this state.

Speaker 31 (27:35):
The Fifth Circond Federal Court of Appeals just ruled that
Texas is fully allowed legally to use those booys in
the river. Those booies cost one tenth of the costs
of the border wall, and so you can expect to
see an increase of the buoys in the Rio Grand River.

Speaker 7 (27:50):
Avid also told News Nation quote, We've solved the Texas problem,
but the US problem requires a new president. While we've
been focused on the southerner, did you know thousands of
illegal aliens, I mean massive increases have been sneaking across
the northern borders.

Speaker 32 (28:09):
Last month it was thirty three hundred crossed in the
Swanton sector people from eighty five different countries, countries with
connections to terrorism.

Speaker 4 (28:17):
In many cases, that was.

Speaker 6 (28:19):
Just one section.

Speaker 7 (28:20):
Breitbart's Bob Price told KGERH the northern border sections aren't
prepared for these huge numbers of illegal aliens and don't
have resources to deal with it. I thirty seven is
our time. Got new reports that American Internet service providers
are being hacked by Chinese communist agents.

Speaker 18 (28:38):
They're believed to be going after intelligence from government and
military personnel, some of them working undercover among other folks.
That is according to a report from The Washington Post,
which describes the attacks as unusually aggressive and sophisticated.

Speaker 7 (28:54):
Fox Business correspondent Grady Tremble, President Joe Biden, and China's
Xijing Ping have agreed to hold a phone meeting. No

Once Cheryl mentioned the Big Arch, I went into because
it's food and I like food. I went into investigative mode.

Speaker 34 (29:48):
Here.

Speaker 4 (29:48):
Let's find out all we need to know about the
Big Arch, other than the fact that it does exist.
First available right now only in Canada.

Speaker 7 (29:56):
Tested in the Chicago kitchens, will be coming in to
the US immigrating, but tested in Canada.

Speaker 4 (30:05):
You should also know that chery mentioned fourteen ounces. Fourteen
ounces is the total weight of everything, not the meat.

Speaker 6 (30:13):
Oh, the sauce might be heavy sauce.

Speaker 4 (30:15):
Yeah, So you should know that because if you're thinking, oh,
good God, is a fourteen ounce burger, Well, one's the meal.
Bends on how you do how do you define the burger?
If you consider the burger the meat, it is two
quarter pound patties.

Speaker 6 (30:29):
So just half a pound.

Speaker 4 (30:30):
So it's a half a pound burger.

Speaker 6 (30:32):
Well that's what I make at home.

Speaker 4 (30:33):
Yeah, three slices of cheese lettuce special sauce and all
that kind of stuff. See put all sesame seed bun.
It sounds it sounds like a glorified Big Man's commercial. No,
it sounds like a glorified I'm doing a Big Mac commercial.
Sounds like a glorified Big Mac. In reality, it's it's
like a Big Mac on steroids, except I guess the
sauce is different. Would you care to guess how many

(30:54):
calories are in this burger? Just the burger. This is
just the burg just no, just the in the whole
package of the burger. No fries, no no noose, high
dishes or aything.

Speaker 6 (31:07):
Thirteen.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
You're not far off one thy thirty for the burger.
So if you have fries and you have a sugar up.

Speaker 6 (31:16):
They use low fat cheese.

Speaker 4 (31:19):
Yeah, well tell the cardiologists that next time you're in
die your head low fat cheese?

Speaker 7 (31:26):
Are they using American cheese on this Canadian burger?

Speaker 4 (31:30):
And it wasn't easy, but I found the price of
what it's selling for right now in Canada. What I
don't know is if this is a special introductory price
or if this is going to be the permanent price
it is selling for. This is just the burger. Nine
dollars and ninety nine cents Canadian dollars.

Speaker 6 (31:48):
That's fairly close to him.

Speaker 4 (31:49):
I was going to say there used to be a
big difference between a Canadian dollar and American dollar. Not
so much anymore. So it's just under ten bucks for
the burger, just for the burger.

Speaker 6 (32:00):
Get a double Patty cheeseburger at what a burger for?
Listen to that, and.

Speaker 4 (32:05):
It's gonna be better everything and it's gonna be better.
I'm sorry, what a burger is still better?

Speaker 6 (32:10):
More familiar?

Speaker 4 (32:11):
Yeah, no, it's better. I've had both, you know, I don't.
I don't have a I don't have a dog in
that hunt. I wasn't born in Texas. I've eaten burgers
in a lot of places. It's it's better. It's just
plain better. Five forty one die for traffic and weather
together you get.

Speaker 5 (32:25):
Yeah, what finished the song to be Patty's special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles.

Speaker 6 (32:29):
Onions on a sesame seed.

Speaker 5 (32:31):
But boo winner right there. All right, let's take you
to downtown.

Speaker 7 (32:34):
I'm not gonna sing for you.

Speaker 6 (32:36):
No, you'll use it against me.

Speaker 4 (32:38):
That's a fact.

Speaker 5 (32:39):
Go freeway, let's go northbound. Watch out for other stations
listeners that don't know about this. This is I forty
five Gold Freeway coming right into downtown, sixty nine northbound,
supposed to be in two center lanes, tramp star.

Speaker 4 (32:51):
I can't get a camera on it. Take it. That's
hard to see, but this is a big downtown.

Speaker 5 (32:55):
But watch out as you're coming up from you of
h northbound and also south. We're looking pretty good. We've
got some kind of spackle here on the east Tex.
That's the feeder road in the intersection of the North
SAM so I'm affecting the mainline stuff.

Speaker 4 (33:09):
Let's go to south side, Larry Dude, Thanks.

Speaker 3 (33:11):
Guy, Mike.

Speaker 34 (33:12):
We've got a freeway's gonna be a little and getting
sixtent south hitting east bound just under the where it
pinches the Stoo line. It's under two eighty eight as
you go, kind of sitting on the eighth day at
this little dog leg. People know what that is. Be
real careful, but I don't know what he's kind to do.

Speaker 5 (33:28):
All right, freeway Zombie south Loop at too a Da Terry.

Speaker 4 (33:31):
Where's the beef?

Speaker 5 (33:32):
I'm in the classic Elite GMC traffic center.

Speaker 4 (33:34):
Does it show up with radar? I know where the
rain is five forty three our time. The KTRH Generator
super Center twenty four hour Weather Center Terry is here,
and your thirsty lawn is probably going to get a
pretty good drink today, oh.

Speaker 20 (33:46):
Today, and tomorrow and really through the holiday weekend. It
looks like we've got that potential for some decent rainfall
here the next several days. So there's this little weak
area of low pressure out in the Gulf of Mexico.
Nothing to be concerned about, but what it is doing
is increasing our chances of rain through Monday and eighty

(34:07):
percent chance of those showers and storms today. Some of
the rain could be heavy an inch or two at times,
and temperatures they're in check mid to upper eighties. We
have a seventy percent chance more showers and some thunderstorms tomorrow, Saturday,
and Sunday, and eighty percent chance of rain Monday. Doesn't
mean it's going to rain all day, just means that

(34:28):
you've got a good shot of getting wet at least
part of the day, mid to upper eighties.

Speaker 6 (34:32):
The temperatures through the weekend.

Speaker 4 (34:34):
Right now seventy eight at your officials Severe Weather Station
News Radio seven forty k TH. What you need to

Speaker 3 (34:42):
This is Houston's Morning News, brought to you by New
South Windows Solutions.

Speaker 4 (34:47):
Five fifty is our time here in Houston's Morning News.
Donald Trump and Glenn Youngkin, the governor of Virginia, have
something in common when it comes to taxes. They believe
less is more. And I think they've proven in the
past that when you drop a whole bunch of regulation
and you take the tax burdens off of businesses and people,
that all of a sudden you're generating tons of revenue
because you're generating more capitalism. But if the left the

(35:10):
luft might realize that, but they can't go for that
because then they lose control. Right, They're all about control
and redistribution of wealth. So we'll have some comments on
that coming up next. First, though, let's do this traffic
and weather together, which starts with you, Sky Mike. Let
me go fast right here.

Speaker 5 (35:24):
I just want to do the tip line seven one

Speaker 19 (35:30):

County between Hungerford and Kimballton.

Speaker 4 (35:36):
Good grief.

Speaker 19 (35:36):
We're at a standstill.

Speaker 4 (35:38):
All right, I gotta stretch my neck.

Speaker 5 (35:39):
Let me see what we can figure out between now
and the six o'clock report coming up nine minutes away,
Skymike and the classical aite GFC Traffic.

Speaker 4 (35:47):
Center from r KTRH Generator Supercenter, twenty four hour Weather Center. Thunderstorm,
some heavy rain today, high temperature right about eighty three.
Similar forecast for tomorrow eighty four. In the weekend, we
will see some glimpse of the sun on Saturday, with
scattered storm Sunday considerable cloud's casual range showers in a
heighth year ninety. I haven't looked into Monday up, but
it's gonna be Labor Day, so it's probably going to rain.

kt right.

Speaker 4 (37:14):
Made a lot of money. The government made a ton
of money during the Trump years despite the fact that
he lowered taxes because he also lowered regulations and business
went about doing what it does, making money and paying
more taxes. Virginia Guvernor Glenn Yunkin agrees that that's the
way to raise revenue.

Speaker 35 (37:29):
There is a real belief that Kamala Harris will not
renew the great tax reform that happened under President Trump's
first term in the Tax Cutting Jobs Act, and not
renewing all of that great tax legislation that facilitated unprecedented
economic growth will once again be a broad based tax
increase on all Americans. The reality is that we need

(37:53):
to make sure that we're working to be efficient at
the government level, to stop the runaway spending, to invest
in the most important things, and to allow Virginians and
Americans to keep more of their hard earned money in
their pockets. You know, Megan, when I came into Virginia,
Virginia was suffering.

Speaker 2 (38:13):
We were bottom third in.

Speaker 35 (38:14):
The nation in job growth, we were bottom ten in
the nation getting.

Speaker 2 (38:19):
Our schools back open.

Speaker 35 (38:20):
We'd seen small businesses closed left, right and center, and
for nine straight years we'd seen more Virginians move.

Speaker 2 (38:26):
Away than move here from the other forty nine states.

Speaker 35 (38:29):
There was a real challenge, and one of the first
things we did was one proclaim that we were open
for business, but two go to work to provide tax relief.

Speaker 2 (38:39):
And during our first two and a half.

Speaker 35 (38:41):
Years, we've seen five billion dollars a tax relief and
we're we already have another three billion in the works that.

Speaker 2 (38:49):
Has been passed.

Speaker 35 (38:50):
That voters were realized, and I want to give them
more because the system works when they can keep more
money in their pocket. There's more people who were hired,
there's more more people that are working, and on top
of that, then there's more receipts at the state level,
which gives us the ability to reduce taxes again and
invest in.

Speaker 2 (39:09):
Our most critical topics.

Speaker 35 (39:11):
I mean, I have to say that we've had record
investment in education, record investment in law enforcement, record investment
in behavioral health, record investment in cleaning up.

Speaker 2 (39:20):
Our streams and rivers and our bays.

Speaker 35 (39:22):
And we've done all of that with record tax relief
because we have record employment.

Speaker 4 (39:27):
There you go, funny how that works. They've made more
money in Virginia and they poured billions of dollars more
into education in other things that are important to the
citizens of the state. And they did it while they
dropped taxes. It's amazing how that works.

Speaker 7 (39:46):
And he just cleaned up the voter's role and demanded
proof of identity that you're not an illegal alien before
you can vote and register in Virginia.

Speaker 4 (39:56):
Here's the sad thing about Virginia, though, I mean, sometimes
it's good, but governors cannot succeed themselves in Virginia. So
you're your one term. You could run again after the
next term is served by another governor, but you cannot
succeed yourself as governor. It's good in that if you've
got a really bad governor, you don't have to worry
about getting them again next time. But if you have

(40:17):
a really good governor like this guy, you can't re
elect them. Double aid sword on that one. Five poin

Speaker 5 (41:25):
I don't even have a timestamp on this, but it
looks pretty ugly northbound on fifty nine and I'm not
sure about reroutes.

Speaker 4 (41:31):
Maybe thirty six.

Speaker 5 (41:32):
I know it doesn't go to thirty six. Well a
double check that at six ten. Also, you've got this

Biden inflation, Donald Trump's running mate jd Vance inflation that
Harris helped create. Tim Walls responded by actually confirming that
Harris helped give us out of control prices.

American Rescue Plan.

Speaker 6 (42:52):

Guess he thinks rescue is the key word. Harris will
finally do a sit down interview with CNN, pre taped

word yet if she'll ever do a solo interview One
on one, six oh three, is our time. Ahead of
the November election, Republican National Committee is trying to secure

(43:21):
ballot boxes all across the country.

Speaker 6 (43:23):
But it's not easy.

Speaker 36 (43:26):
Only American citizens can vote. You have to have a
voter ID. States need to clean up their voter roles,
and if you have a mail in voting, then we
want basic safeguards put in place.

Speaker 7 (43:37):
RNC chairman Michael Wattley there on Fox He says the
RNC has already filed one hundred lawsuits aimed at making
sure that the election is secure and that only Americans vote.
But you've got to worry about the Democrats in control
of the judiciary and the courts. According to recent polling
from economist you gov, most voters see Donald Trump as

(44:00):
a strong leader in Kamala Harris's week, but a Fox
News poll shows Harris is now leading Trump by some
small margins in the swing states of Arizona, Nevada, and Georgia.

Speaker 6 (44:12):
What's with that? Many are excited about the boost with
independence that Trump is receiving now after RFK Junior supporting him,
but others are concerned about the Kennedy's liberal record.

Speaker 14 (44:28):
I continue to see them shut.

Speaker 22 (44:30):
Out Shara, especially since RFK Junior is an ultra lefty.

Speaker 12 (44:35):
A lot of us Mus, a lot of his politico
altcooks are definitely on the west side. I mean, he's
made no bones about being a lifelong global Democrat. I
don't think that's about the change.

Speaker 22 (44:45):
That's journalism. Fellow Daniel Greenfield, who says there is some
concern about Dems joining the Trump tent, I think.

Speaker 12 (44:54):
It's a realistic concern. Certainly there's going to be. Also,
there are already all sorts of folacy differences. I'm sure
if Trump wins, that will be major policy differences.

Speaker 22 (45:03):
Which could lead to major fighting down the road. Jeff Biggs,
News Radio seven k t r H.

Speaker 7 (45:10):
Yeah, there's a new UH and Texas Southern Pole right
now that was let out claims that Senator Ted Cruz
has just a two percent lead on Colin all Read
in the race for our Senate seat. Here, political analyst
Bill Miller says, no, don't believe it. He says Texas
will remain read this time, as it has for thirty years,

(45:31):
but the Democrats won't be held off forever.

Speaker 14 (45:34):
I continue to see them shut out for the time being.
And last week Republicans field a very weak candidate, and
the Democrats come up with some circumstances that helped them
across the board. They'll eventually run a race stay wide,
and they're going to win more than that, and when
it happens, the spell will be broken.

Speaker 7 (45:51):
He says he believes Cruz will win this race by
eight to ten points.

Speaker 6 (45:55):
Forget the poll. It's now six oh six.

Speaker 7 (45:58):
Ukraine seems to be gained, being more ground, or at
least they want us to think so against Russia. Ukrainian
forces pushing into the Russian Kursk region that's where Hitler
was defeated by the Russians in World War Two.

Speaker 37 (46:14):
That is where Ukrainians now hold five hundred square miles
of Russian territory and are still advancing. And President Zelenski
said yesterday that the invasion into Russia, the incursion how
you see it, was part of his victory plan, one
that he had put together and that he plans to
present to President Biden next month. That could lay the
groundwork for negotiations next year. But for that negotiation to succeed,

(46:35):
Zelenski has said that the Ukrainians need permission to use
long range US missiles. It will allow them to hit
Russian bases.

Speaker 7 (46:42):
WOW missiles and permission Fox's Jonathan Savage. In Israel, another
terrorist commander who participated in the October seven attack has
been killed. Osama Gadala was a commander in the Islamic
Jihad's military intelligence unit. A drone to come out yesterday,
according to the IDF. The wars continuing there so do protest,

(47:04):
but UT has now decided to stay out of all
of it. The UT Board of reaches banning all schools
in the University of Texas system from taking any public
positions on politics or quote issues of the day. Meantime,

of the student government at Michigan, suspending funding funding for
all student groups until the administration, meaning the state agrees

Speaker 7 (47:53):
US Supreme Court once again blocking the Biden Harris plan
to give away another billion or so of dollar of
handouts paying off student loan. Several other lawsuits are making
their way through lower courts and so the Supreme Court

(49:55):
another injectable weight loss drug, and I keep saying to myself, huh,
you know, we had all this talk of food safety
and how you know, it's just really in the last
twenty thirty years that Americans have started getting so dog
one fat. You know, it's got to be it's got
to be our food. It's got to be what we're

(50:15):
eating and how we're eating it, and where we're getting
our food from. And many of us don't eat a
home cooked meal anymore. We eat out, or you know,
we go through the fast food line, and they are
selling this stuff for crazy amounts of money. There's something
called Zelfie, which is kind of like a knockoff of ozembic,
and we'll go be It's two hundred and ninety seven
dollars a month to get this drug, which you can

(50:39):
inject and lose weight, easy way, keep eating your fast
food and lose weight. Of course, you'll have to be
on this the rest of your life in order for
it to work. And if you read the small print
on most of these products, and there's more and more
being added every day, and they're all about anywhere from
two hundred and ninety seven to four hundred dollars a month.
That's three four five thousand dollars is going to big pharma.

(51:01):
You know, you kind of have to wonder is McDonald's
getting a kickback for coming out with a big arch
from what for these big farmer companies who keep selling
more of this drug. They kind of racked all the
fast food we keep eating.

Speaker 6 (51:11):
Kennedy was talking about that in his speech.

Speaker 4 (51:13):
You really got to wonder about that a little bit Yeah,
I mean he.

Speaker 6 (51:15):
Really was, and it makes a lot of sense the
things that he's saying about the health.

Speaker 4 (51:20):
Yeah, it all just feels it just all feels very coordinated.
There's so many things that feel you know that we
just kind of never really thought that were being coordinated
together before that. You really kind of have to wonder
down six eleven time for traffic and whether together we're
checking out the drive again. Here's kuy of mine.

Speaker 5 (51:35):
All right, Wharton County, you have a big problem here.

Speaker 17 (51:37):
Man.

Speaker 5 (51:38):
I'm glad to have Cindy. I'm glad to have you
on board here with your banana stickers. This is northbound
fifty nine slash sixty nine northbound, just out of Hungerford
and I'm not sure if that's a county road. I
guess that's two sixteen. Right before you hit that, this
is all lanes block. You're getting by on the shoulder.
That's a pretty big smash northbound been from a task
Casita Go Mike action.

Speaker 13 (51:58):
At East Tech three way eight is not affecting the
main lane.

Speaker 29 (52:03):
Did not even see any flashes light.

Speaker 5 (52:05):
No, no, Ben, you drove right over it. It's on
the frontage road here, and I'm arguing with transtar. They're
saying this is southbound. Look, if you zoom out right
there and there's a bunch of trashy hotels over on
the right, then this is then this is northbound. But
if you zoom out there's a bunch of truck stops,
then it's south I'm saying it's northbound.

Speaker 4 (52:20):
It's on the feeder.

Speaker 5 (52:22):
Just avoid that surface there. Daniel from Magnoli, what I have,

their way into Southeast Texas from the Gulf of Mexico

These headlines are sponsored by Moral Mechanicals. Seven people were injured,

Your forecast is at the bottom of the hour on
seven KTRH.

Speaker 4 (56:14):
SO Northern border rest about one hundred and ninety seven percent.
The good news is there's arrest iffidentitely they're just walking
across the border in the United States, or are they?
Bob Price joins us editor at Breitbart News. I guess
that's a big question, isn't it. Not how many people
are getting arrested, Bob, but how many people aren't.

Speaker 32 (56:34):
Well, it really is. And the ones that aren't getting
arrested are the ones that we need to be the
most concerned about, because usually there's a reason why they're
not crossing the border and surrendering to the first border
patrol agent that they can find.

Speaker 7 (56:47):
Yeah, we certainly on nine to eleven had a northern
ingress from illegal aliens over extending their visas or whatever.
But Buffalo and flights out of New York, I mean
the North, the entire country is at risk if we
don't have borders.

Speaker 27 (57:07):
You're really is sure.

Speaker 2 (57:08):
And when we look at our northern border in particular
right now during.

Speaker 32 (57:12):
The Biden administration, there's been this explosion. You know, the
numbers aren't huge, but the percentage increase has been massive.
They're in the Swanton border sector where agents have seen
one hundred and ninety seven percent increase just this year
over last year, and more apprehended in the first ten

(57:35):
months of this year than the entire thirteen years combined.

Speaker 4 (57:39):
I'm curious, Bob, do we don't about the nationality of
the people who are coming through the Canadian border versus
the ones that are coming up to the southern border.
It's a little bit of everybody, but there's probably more
South Americans that are coming up through the southern border.
I'm guessing are we seeing more Chinese, for example, coming
through the northern border.

Speaker 32 (57:57):
Well, the northern border, we're seeing people from eighty five
to diferent countries coming from all the world. A lot
of Chinese, oddly enough, a lot of Mexican nationals crossing
the Northern border sector. And it's just amazing that we're
seeing these massive numbers going on and on out there,

(58:18):
crossing in the Swanton sector, which is eastern New York,
Vermont and New Hampshire. You can literally just many places
there drive across the border.

Speaker 7 (58:27):
You know, we talk a lot about Mexico needs, you know,
remain in Mexico. That's what Donald Trump managed to get
from the Mexican government. Are there any any outreaches being
made to Canada to do something to slow this transit
into our country?

Speaker 2 (58:42):
Part of the share.

Speaker 32 (58:44):
Part of this problem was created when Canada changed its
agreement with Mexico where you could, as a Mexican national,
you could fly from Mexico to Canada without a visa,
not without government approval, without any kind of hell long
you were going to stay or anything like that. And
so we started seeing the increase and then it picked

(59:05):
up from other places. We finally got Canada to reverse
that policy and it had a small impact. But you know,
once you get that train moving in that direction, it's
really hard to get.

Speaker 4 (59:17):
Us to stop. Well, we know the cartel's helping a
lot of people across the southern border. Is there anybody
helping across the Canadian border? Heaven forbid the is the
cartel operating there?

Speaker 28 (59:25):
Now?

Speaker 32 (59:26):
We have found that in talking with more control officials
in the Swanton sector, that the cartels are operating up
in Canada. You know, human smuggling is a cartel operation.
They're making as much money off of smuggling people as
they do off of smuggling drugs in many cases, and
so it's not surprising at all to see their operations.

(59:47):
You know, they're operating in all fifty states in the
United States, So why wouldn't we think they'd be operating
in Canada as well?

Speaker 6 (59:54):
Can we know Northern stays have an awful lot of
fentanyl problems?

Speaker 4 (59:57):
Yeah? They do, all right, Bob Bryce, Pleasure's always thank

is now backing down. Guess what after tolling students that
ooh Usa America themes would not be allowed at football
games this season because quote, it's too political.

Speaker 27 (01:03:09):
This was a knee jerk reaction by an administrator that
really didn't think this went out too clearly. Glad to
see that cootler heads prevailed and they back down.

Speaker 7 (01:03:20):
Yeah, that's the attorney David Starnes, who credits Magnolia High
school parents were speaking out and making these demands. He says,
it's sad that is still happening in Texas. Starnes helped

(01:03:41):
Harris finally sitting down for a TV interview, of course
on CNN pretaped, and Tim Walltz is at her side.

Speaker 40 (01:03:50):
The fact that they don't have enough confidence in her
to let her sit herself the actual top of the
ticket and do a single interview. In fact, I think
the hand ringing and the gyrations over this over the
last month show a troubling lack of confidence in her
political ability.

Speaker 7 (01:04:05):
As political commentator Scott Jennings on CNN, Trump, on the
other hand, continuing to do unscripted, uncut, one on one
interviews with anyone who wants him to sit down with them.

We need a country that's going to take care of

At this one, Trump was down with doctor Phil FBI
not giving much transparency to any of us about the
investigation of the July thirteenth attendant assassination.

Speaker 29 (01:04:39):
I want to be clear, we have not seen any
indication to suggest Crooks was directed by a foreign entity
to conduct the attack.

Speaker 7 (01:04:47):
As the FBI Assistant Director of National Security Bobby Wells.
He says, but the FBI still can't identify a motive
for the attack. Leftist organization they're suppressing Conservatives that they're
getting pushed back.

Speaker 41 (01:05:04):
Finally, Republicans in Congress and states like Texas are fighting
back against Democrat proxy groups who silence and cancel conservatives.
Writer and host Josh Hammer tells the Washington Watch podcast.
These groups often pressure businesses to deplatform or even debank
the right.

Speaker 30 (01:05:20):
As someone who is clearly right of centering contributing to
the public square, I am terrified, and my bank might
try to cut me off tomorrow, or my retirement account
might try to tell me to devest These are really
terrifying times, frankly, and he's going to take some willingness
on the part of Republicans to get their hands a
little dirty or at.

Now, our diplomatic relationship with Mexico getting more strained by
the day. Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador has now
paused diplomatic relations with the US and Canadian embassies in
Mexico's because of criticism we're making of his judicial reform
proposals in Mexico. Texas Governor Greg Abbott making a bold

(01:06:08):
statement about the state of the invasion.

Speaker 4 (01:06:13):
We've solved the Texas problem, but not the United States problem.
That requires a new president, Abbot.

Speaker 7 (01:06:21):
Telling News Nation he wants to expand the use of
border boys in the Rio Grande Supreme Court said, yes,
it is legal for Texas to do it constitutional. While
we focus on the crisis at the southern border, illegal immigrants,
aliens from what do you say? Fifty seven countries are
passing through Canada into the northern border. It's setting records.

Speaker 10 (01:06:44):
Illegal crossings are up one hundred and ninety seven percent
over the record breaking fiscal year twenty twenty three.

Speaker 32 (01:06:49):
These aren't people that are crossing to just surrender to
the first agent that they can find.

Speaker 4 (01:06:54):
These are people that are trying to hide and trying
to get away.

Speaker 10 (01:06:57):
Breitbart's Bob Price told KTRH right now, our northern border
has even less protection than the southern one.

Speaker 4 (01:07:03):
There's no physical barriers.

There's not even in many cases a water barrier a

They only have one and they're putting it up for
bid to the High Spiders right now. The bidding stands
at thirty seven, two and sixty nine dollars.

Speaker 27 (01:09:18):
It is.

Speaker 4 (01:09:19):

cold cell technology, hydraulic lid piston, dual drain valves, and
t latch lidlocks. This life sized casket will keep your
cans cold for an eternity. Holds approximately three hundred and
seventy eight twelve ounce cans of liquid death or two

(01:09:40):
hundred and fifty two nineteen point two ounce of cans
of liquid death or any other liquid you ssually decide
to put in there. Includes free white glove delivery. Please
allow four to six weeks. Deliveries only within the contiguous

have a casket cooler?

Speaker 6 (01:10:01):
What you fill it with? Yukka?

Speaker 4 (01:10:03):
Or you could use it for yourself at some point.

Speaker 6 (01:10:05):
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (01:10:06):
You fill it with Yeah, keep yourself, keep yourself on ice,
you know.

Speaker 6 (01:10:09):
Instead of cans. I wonder to fill it with liquid.

Speaker 4 (01:10:11):
I wonder, because yet Getty's very good brand. I wonder
I wonder how long.

Speaker 6 (01:10:18):
To carry it around?

Speaker 27 (01:10:18):
Right?

Speaker 4 (01:10:20):
Well, I'd feel if it's full of some other stuff,
you could probably get some a lot of people volunteer
to carry.

Speaker 6 (01:10:27):
That pretty spooky if you filled it with dry ice, Yeah, I.

Speaker 4 (01:10:30):
Would, Yeah, I would. I'm just wondering if you dip
up skeleton or whatever, if you actually wanted to use
it as a casket and you wanted to put ice
in there. I wonder how many years or how long
that ice would last if you didn't open it, If
you didn't open it, would it last an eternity? Get
He's a pretty good opening. It is the spooky part, Yeah,
exactly six forty time for traffic and weather together.

Speaker 5 (01:10:49):
Top part was clear and you could see person in there.

That would be it. That's this one isn't But that's
a great idea.

Skuya take me and Cliff and Corey and you know
it could be weakened.

Speaker 6 (01:10:59):
I don't know that technology we go by the wayside
on that I.

Speaker 4 (01:11:02):
Might use that for wrong.

Speaker 5 (01:11:03):
All right, it looks like they've cleared our wreck in
Hungerford on fifty nine, so it's back to being gorgeous
all the way up to Richmond and Rosenberg, pretty drive
in and Brasis River. Remember they're doing that road work
this weekend again. The Brass River southbound, they'll take out
two lanes. That gets pretty squished up here. Also on
the southwest one. We're looking at this side. There's some
kind of spackle right here on the curve coming from

(01:11:26):
the West Park Tollway right off the renp We may
have a stalled that.

Speaker 4 (01:11:29):
Have to double check that.

Speaker 5 (01:11:30):
At a six fifty, I got a wreck on the
east text under the beltway. Looks pretty serious. It's under
the beltway. Stay on the main lanes and you'll get
around that stuff. We're getting loopy at the squeeze on
six ten north westbound forty five. That sure does look
like a wreck off the zoom that Jason from Alvin
showed me a two eighty eight problem right before the
loopregatorrugg Well said, Bryce Magnoia is on two forty nine.

The Mory guy Mike coming in on the Forgotten Freeway

Speaker 4 (01:12:07):
I was framed Terry from our KTRH Generators Supercenter twenty
four our weather center. Yeah, that's what they all claim. Like,
Terry Smith is here. We've got some rain on the way,
could see some heavy doses of rain. Do you have
any timing on some of these storms, Terry? Right?

Speaker 20 (01:12:21):
Well, right now, things are quiet, just so folks know,
if you're heading out the door just beginning your morning commute,
things are quiet and dry. But I would not at
all be surprised if we start to see some of
this rain making its way on shore here in the
next hour or so. It's moving northward too, so areas
on the north side of Houston could see.

Speaker 6 (01:12:42):
Some of that wet weather bit to late morning.

Speaker 20 (01:12:45):
So it's a eighty percent chance of these showers and
thunderstorms bringing you some wet weather at some point over
the course of the day. And there's heavy rain that
is possible at insure two, maybe even some higher amounts
in very localized area. But a good soaking today, mid
upper eighties, seventy percent chance you'll get soaked again tomorrow,

(01:13:05):

a few people who think, you know, she really didn't
get the bump that everybody thought she was going to get.
Those poll numbers just kind of went back to what
Biden's poll numbers were before, you know, all the stories
about his metal competency and then the debate. You know,
it's's kind of what the Democrat numbers look like pre debate.

Speaker 6 (01:13:59):
Not a good lie. Look going into a debate in September.

Speaker 4 (01:14:02):

Use Radio seven forty KTRH fifty three is our time
here in Houston's morning news. All right, Mark Alpern, you
know he is. He's on Newsmax. He says that some
of the Democrats he's been talking to are starting to
panic because they didn't see the big at post DNC
bump in the poll numbers. The poll numbers are virtually
the same as going into the Democratic National Convention, and

(01:16:53):
they're they're they're starting to get a little bit worried
about that.

Speaker 39 (01:16:56):
There's some public polling already, there's more coming, and there's
some private polling that suggests that nationally in the battleground states,
she's not ahead.

Speaker 2 (01:17:06):
She might be ahead on paper, but well within the
margin of error.

Speaker 39 (01:17:10):
And there's some battground states now where I think Donald
Trump's on this trajectory is going to be ahead. And
it may be regardless of what happens in the interview,
regardless of what happens in the debate, it may be
that by the middle of September, when things have calmed down,
when the Trump campaign have had time to prey on
some of the weaknesses that I suggested, that he's ahead

(01:17:32):
and all the sun veiled states, and a head in
Pennsylvania and competitive in Michigan and Wisconsin, which would be
roughly where Joe Biden was before the debate, with a
single path to two hundred and seventy electro votes the
three Great Lake states in Nebraska two and that'd be
a scary position for the Democratic Party to be in

(01:17:54):
from mid September through election day, because then they have
a candidate who'd never want a press ssidential election.

Speaker 4 (01:18:00):
Never won a primary.

Speaker 39 (01:18:01):
Cauckies had run for president once and failed, had been
for most of her time as vice president, not a short,
short footed person on the national stage. Yeah, I'm not
predicting this will happen, but I think if the day
I think is expected to come out comes out, the
people either helped her secure the nomination without a shot

(01:18:23):
being fired, and the people who've long been worried about
her against Donald Trump will either ben I told.

Speaker 4 (01:18:31):
You so mode or oh no mode or both. Well,
no matter what mode they go in, though, there's still
the steps that they will take. So just Michigan and
Wisconsin refusing to take RFK Junior off the ballot because
they're hoping that'll take enough votes away from Donald Trump
if it'll make the difference. So they'll they'll they'll pull
the tricks out of the bag. They will do everything anything,

(01:18:53):
not just everything.

Speaker 7 (01:22:26):
Yes, that's your presidential candidate Harris in Georgia. She finally
did a sit down interview, by the way, with CNN
pre taped with running mate Tim Wallas. No solo interview
or news conference since forcing Joe Biden off the ticket,
at least yet already seeing through the Harris Act. Apparently,

(01:22:46):
fifty three percent of people polled told the economists and
you gov that they view Harris as being insincere, and
the same number told posters they think Donald Trump is sincere.
It's now seven three As for election security, tampering with
voter rolls, ineligible ballas outright interference, it's even worse than

(01:23:08):
it was in twenty twenty.

Speaker 10 (01:23:10):
Unfortunately, Democrats are now directly fighting election security.

Speaker 11 (01:23:14):

Democrats could go even further.

Speaker 11 (01:23:28):

Well, we all learned last week Robert F. Kennedy Junior
has joined the Trump transition team. So why are so
many on the right excited about a liberal Democrat supporting Trump.

Speaker 12 (01:23:59):
I think it's interesting because RK Junior is demonstrating that
the Trump campaign is anti establishment, which is a difficult
trick for former incumbents to pose.

Speaker 7 (01:24:09):
As journalism fellow Daniel Greenfield, He's pretty concerned that Democrats
who joined Trump now though, will ultimately stab him in
the back later. It is now seven five here in Texas.
A new poll from uh Texas Southern says that the
Ted Cruz Colin Allred Senate race is closer than you
might think.

Speaker 13 (01:24:28):
But no, there's some pushback on that they have Cruise
ahead by two point one percent, but pulls this early
need to be taken with a grain of salt.

Speaker 14 (01:24:36):
The attaption that this race is really close is wrong.
He did have a close selection the last cycle, but
it wasn't a president actually year, and the circumstances were
entirely different.

Speaker 13 (01:24:46):
Political analyst Bill Miller says Cruise has learned a lot
the last six years, and he might win by even
more than he did against Bedo.

Speaker 14 (01:24:53):
I hated at twenty eight and ten point race. At
the end of the day, Cruise isn't going to run
away with it, but it's not going to be a

an eleven million dollar billing scandal in its home state.

we've become. The Surgeon General of the United States, but
Beec Murphy has issued a mental health crisis warning four parents.

Let me get this straight. Do we need to slap
a Surgeon General warning label on your forehead?

Speaker 39 (01:28:00):
No?

Speaker 4 (01:28:00):
No, no, on your kid's forehead. It's your kids that
are driving you crazy. Warning. Becoming a parent can drive
you insane. Parents of it LA are having a hard time,
or harder than before it coping with the problems of
raising children, the added pressure from things like social media.

(01:28:22):
Both on the parents themselves as they compare themselves to
other people's parenting techniques, and the kids themselves who get
into all sorts of issues on social media and have
all those types of issues. I can tell you one thing,
from being married to somebody who works in a public school.
It has become nothing but worse. Yeah, we have finally

(01:28:42):
gotten to the point where the entitled have had decided
to have children.

Speaker 6 (01:28:47):
And where does that come from? It comes from our government.

Speaker 4 (01:28:50):
M h.

Speaker 7 (01:28:51):
It comes from all these agencies. It comes from unions,
the school unions to teach, the administration, it comes from
all these regulations, the government. And that should now be
raising your children. That's the attitude.

Speaker 4 (01:29:02):
Well, I can tell you if they're not doing a
very good job, you.

Speaker 6 (01:29:06):
Know, parents dare to stand up.

They're the ones who are hounded and hunted.

Speaker 6 (01:29:12):
Have their children taken away from them.

Speaker 4 (01:29:14):
And they're being told now that well, you're just too
fragile to raise your kids. Well, guess what. Parenting has
ups and downs. But at the end of the day,
by the way, if this helps you all, and I
know ninety nine point nine percent of you listening know this.
You know You really don't need to judge yourself as
a parent until that child gets to about eighteen to
twenty one years old exactly, and you see how they

(01:29:35):
turned out should be because when they're little sometimes you
wonder what they hell, what is going on here? I
got worried about this kid, and then they turn out
to be great at the end of the day, and
you ended up doing a great job. So don't be
so hard on yourself and don't stress about it. Time

Well, I really was not the attorney involved. There was.
Really it was a common sense approached by the bureaucrats.
I have handled cases similar to this in the past,
and the parent that complained went to the administrator, the
principal afterwards, and they talked it out and he backed

(01:35:39):
down for the school. The first first bureaucrat I think
was an assistant principle that got involved and said, no,
we can't do that. It's not allowed here. It will
be too insightful, and all of the mess that a bureaucrat,
typically off the cuff would say, but unless their policy

(01:36:01):
at that school, they're written policy, because everybody has a policy.
Manual says that you that patriotic days are forbidden. Patriotic
themes are forbidden. USA themes are forbidden. They had no
leg to stand on to forbid the school cheerleaders and
otherwise of having a Patriot Day for homecoming or for

(01:36:24):
any other football game, but that was going to be
the theme for the football season, and they just and
the bureaucrat's first response was, no, you can't do that.

Speaker 4 (01:36:32):
We don't allow that here.

Speaker 12 (01:36:34):
You know, somebody doesn't.

Speaker 27 (01:36:35):
Looks at the manual. It's not there. So what is
your basis for disallowing you?

Speaker 4 (01:36:41):
Opinion? Right?

Speaker 7 (01:36:43):
Exactly, something that every school district needs to be aware of,
and every period of a child in a school in
Texas needs to be aware of.

Speaker 27 (01:36:52):
Right, correct, And I'll bet you a dollar, bet you
a dollar to a donut. You go look at these manuals.
They do not ban any kind of patriotic display USA
Day Olympics anything of that magnitude, which is what they
were trying to do at Mgnelia High School.

Speaker 12 (01:37:10):
It's not in there.

Speaker 27 (01:37:11):
Therefore, there is no basis to ban that. Your personal
opinion doesn't count when we are still in a free
speech country.

Speaker 6 (01:37:18):
Are you surprised by this? I mean, you represented the
koons High School that was an ongoing, long legal battle
because of using Bible scriptures on the signs that they
weighed and run the football team through. I mean, how
innocent is that?

Speaker 27 (01:37:36):
Well? What was ridiculous about that is the first salvo
that was fired was from the Freedom from Religion Foundation
out of Wisconsin. Why would the principle give any credence
to an organization in Wisconsin when he's the principal at Koont's,
at the Kontes High School. I mean, that was ridiculous. Well,

(01:37:57):
actually the superintendent, he wasn't the principal. He's a superintendent.
So that was another knee jerk bureaucratic decision that he
didn't check their manual. He didn't do anything. It was
just his first inclination was, Okay, we've gotten a complaint.
We're just going to shut it down, you know.

Speaker 4 (01:38:12):
I just get down. And I just get the impression, David,
that that these school administrators these days will will back
up or down from anything. The thing they seem to
be the most fearful of is getting any negative publicity.
So so ironically they make decisions that will get them
negative publicity, and then they're forced to back down so

(01:38:32):
they don't get more negative publicity.

Speaker 27 (01:38:35):
That's correct, And kudos to the parent that came up
to them and faced off with them, because if you
don't do that, they will run over you.

Speaker 4 (01:38:44):
Absolutely absolutely, well said sir. Thank you for your time today,
appreciate it. As attorney David Starns. At seven twenty seven,
it is time to take a look at your money.
Here's Courtney Donahoe.

Speaker 25 (01:38:54):
Well, good morning, Jimmy. As we head to the opening bell,
stocks are fire Dell futures for right now, they're up
two hundred and sixty five points. Traders are starting to
dig into chip maker in Video's earnings and looking past
the underwhelming results, their focus continuing on demand for artificial
intelligence is growing. Oil this morning trading at seventy five
dollars a barrel Riggs and the permianm and Bock and

(01:39:15):
basins are producing at the most efficient rate in thirteen years.
Drillers have extended the horizontal length of their well since
the pandemic two three miles or more to squeeze out
more output from their sites. And retail companies have been
saying lately that the priority for shoppers is buying essentials,
but we are more willing to open our wallets for new,
trendy products at the right price, and it seems customers

(01:39:38):
are branching out and putting more electronics in their shopping carts.
As a result, Best Buy said profits will be better
this year than expected. Courteys on Hope Bloomberg Business On

Sheriff Ryer.

Speaker 6 (01:41:35):
Good morning everyone.

Speaker 7 (01:41:36):
It is now seven thirty two on news Radio seven
forty KTRH and our top story this hour, what's happening
to Texas patriot is Patriotism in school was under threat,
and it happened in Magnolia, Sure Ut.

Speaker 22 (01:41:51):
Magnolia High School administrators wanted to block pro USA themes
during football games because it would be too political.

Speaker 27 (01:42:00):
It's sad that in this day and time that when
somebody wants to be patriotic and they're shut down. I mean,
that is just absolutely ludicrous.

Speaker 22 (01:42:08):
That is Attorney David Starnes who says, props to the
Magnolia High School parents for pushing back.

Speaker 27 (01:42:15):
That's what we need our parents to do. Family alarm
when things get crossed over the line and they get
into intrusion rather than policy.

Speaker 4 (01:42:22):
And that's all.

Speaker 22 (01:42:22):
This was the district did back down and is now
allowing a USA themed night.

Speaker 5 (01:42:29):
Jeff Biggs News Radio seven Kati.

Speaker 7 (01:42:32):
Or h It's now seven thirty three, Kamala Harris sitting
down for a TV interview finally, but of course on
CNN pre taped with Tim Walls at her side.

Speaker 6 (01:42:42):
It wasn't one on one.

Speaker 7 (01:42:43):
Arkansas Governor Sarah Huppebye Sanders says proof that Tim Harris
is afraid of letting her expose herself.

Speaker 28 (01:42:52):
There is not a lot of confidence in somebody to
become the leader of the free world and ask people
to make her president in the United States when she
can't even sit down with an interview.

Speaker 7 (01:43:03):
Yeah, a friendly interview, the governor Huckabee on Fox Trump
continuing to take questions and one on one interviews from
all comers, and he blames the lefts rhetoric really for
his July thirteen attempted assassination in Pennsylvania.

Speaker 15 (01:43:20):
I also took a bullet, But maybe that bullet is
because of their rhetoric. You know, it's a really nasty rhetoric.

Speaker 7 (01:43:28):
Yeah, They've made him such a hated figure. Trump was
on with doctor philbi not giving any transparency about its
investigation of that July thirteenth attempted assassination.

Speaker 29 (01:43:40):
At this time, the FBI is not identified a motive,
nor any co conspirators or associates of crooks with advanced
knowledge of the.

Speaker 7 (01:43:49):
ATTACKTBI Assistant Director of National Security Bobby Wells there, he
says no, he said he acted alone. But we still
don't know why Trump was indicted.

Speaker 6 (01:44:01):
Again.

Speaker 7 (01:44:01):
Remember this week a Jack Smith grand jury in d C.
And after years of being bullied, censored, canceled by the left,
there are some on the right finally pushing back. The
House Judiciary Committee just helped shut down a leftist media
watchdog group that was actually steering advertisers away from conservative
platforms and content.

Speaker 30 (01:44:23):
What I was trying to do was essentially just issue
a rally cry to every Republican state, a g office
out there, you know, try and provide some support for
the Republicans in Congress. There is a lot out there
trying to censor conservative speech. Weed all the help that
we can get to fight back.

Speaker 7 (01:44:36):
Writer and host Josh Hammer there, he told the Washington
Watch podcasts. More attorneys general better follow the lead of
the Texas Ajken Paxton in taking legal fights directly to
the left, which Packston does yees.

Speaker 6 (01:44:50):
Seven thirty five is our time.

Speaker 7 (01:44:52):
Texas Governor Greg Abvitt says, since Biden Harris what regime
won't secure our border, this state will continue to do
that job.

Speaker 31 (01:45:02):
The Fifth circud Federal Court of Appeals just ruled that
Texas is fully allowed legally to use those booys in
the river. Those booyies cost one tenth of the costs
of the border wall, and so you can expect to
see an increase of the booys in the real Grand River.

Speaker 7 (01:45:18):
Abbott also told News Nation quote, We've solved the Texas problem,
but the US problem requires a new president. Indeed, because
while we have focused on Texas, thousands of illegal aliens
have been sneaking across the northern border.

Speaker 32 (01:45:34):
Last month, it was thirty three hundred crossed in the
Swanton sector, people from eighty five different countries, countries with
connections to terrorism.

Speaker 7 (01:45:42):
In many cases that Swanton sector around New York, Vermont.
Briebot's Breitbart's Bob Price told KGRHR northern border can't handle
the huge numbers of illegal aliens who are getting in.
Don't have the resources. Seven thirty six is our time.
Some reports that American intern Service provisers are being hacked
by Chinese communist agents.

Speaker 18 (01:46:05):
They're believed to be going after intelligence from government and
military personnel, some of them working undercover among other folks.

Speaker 2 (01:46:13):
That is according to a report from The Washington Post, which.

Speaker 18 (01:46:16):
Describes the attacks as unusually aggressive and sophisticated.

Speaker 7 (01:46:21):
Fox Business correspondent Grady Tremble now President Biden and China's
Xijing Ping agreed to hold.

Speaker 6 (01:46:28):
A phone meeting.

Speaker 7 (01:46:30):
Oh dear, there's no word on when that will take
place or whether Biden will actually be doing the talking.
It is now seven point thirty seven. Astros avoided the
sweep with a win over the Phillies. It was ten

Edition of Harris County because she's going to be talking
about that. She's going to do a State of the

We'll be speaking at the Greater Houston Partnership talking about
the state of Harris County. What do you think the
state of Harris County is.

Speaker 7 (01:47:42):
Well, the way it's going to be stated on the
speech written for her, everything's wonderful and what we need
is more cooperation and more money.

Speaker 4 (01:47:50):
Yes, of course. Well, here's what specifically she says. She
will be covering topics such as good governance, Yes, she's
an expert at that, good governance, disaster resiliency, federal advocacy,
mental health. Now I wonder when she gets that she's

(01:48:12):
going to talk about her own mental health or the
mental health of those of us who live in Harris County,
because my mental health is I'm kind of depressed.

Speaker 6 (01:48:19):
See federal advocacy.

Speaker 7 (01:48:21):
Yes, this is Harris County bypassing the state, Uh, totally,
the state has this control. They keep doing that and
working directly with the Biden Harris regime.

Speaker 4 (01:48:32):
Uh huh, exactly right.

Speaker 7 (01:48:34):
You know, they've just shared themselves their own state, Harris
County has has We're so big.

Speaker 4 (01:48:39):
She has decided that she would like to secede from Texas. Yeah, yeah,
she would like.

Speaker 6 (01:48:45):
Her I have direct links. I mean that's what she
was doing at the DNC right.

Speaker 4 (01:48:49):
Well, you know, Kammo's calling her up making sure everything's cool.

Speaker 7 (01:48:51):
You know, if you live in Harris County, you don't
live in Texas, No you don't. Well, they're parts of

let him get off the ballot in Michigan or Wisconsin.
Those are two battleground states. He promised to get off
the ballot on so he can help President Trump, and
they won't let him do it. And on and on
and on it goes. The left continues to battle with
RFK Junior. More on that story. Next, first though, traffic

Speaker 3 (01:53:55):
Headquarters is use Radio seven forty KTRH up and fifty
three is our time here in Houston's warning to do
is on Gutfeld last night they were talking about the
Democrats and RFK Junior and him trying to get out
of the you know, get his name off the ballot
in Michigan and Wisconsin.

Speaker 4 (01:54:12):
I'm not letting him out. Here's a little bit of
that conversation. Here's Tyrus.

Speaker 43 (01:54:15):
You say it's dirty, but there's there's levels to dirt,
and they couldn't they wouldn't give him security. They brought
his family in to go after him. They did everything
they could, and then they finally can get rid of them,
but they can't afford it because they're so afraid because
the wheels are falling off. They don't even care if
they lose votes to him in Michigan as long as

(01:54:36):
they hope it hurts Trump.

Speaker 4 (01:54:38):
So they're on a hope campaign.

Speaker 17 (01:54:40):
You know?

Speaker 4 (01:54:41):
Is this part of the joy through strength.

Speaker 43 (01:54:43):
Manifest that they're because they continue to do these things,
they go after this guy, they finally get rid of them,
but he didn't go away like they wanted him to.

Speaker 4 (01:54:52):
He did.

Speaker 43 (01:54:53):
He gave them every opportunity to include him right he
went to and all he was like, listen, he was
eating crow. All he wanted to do was to really
be in charge of fixing food and this country for
our kids in our future. It doesn't matter whether you're
a donkey or an elephant. We all got to eat,
and I would think we all would like to eat
healthier together. So I don't understand why they would be

(01:55:14):
like hell no. And then they let him go and
Trump says, hell yes, scoop and score, we'll take him.
And now they're after him to the point where they're
now and he has no security, So you worry. You worry,
like with the with what we saw with other people
get influenced by what you say, your toxic accounts about
other politicians that your political enemies or whatever. We unfortunately
have citizens in this country who take it to the

(01:55:36):
next level, so they continue to go at him, and
you start to worry about what the results are mean
because the Democrats clearly don't care. They are so focused
on keeping this election their way that there are no breaks.
There are no hey, hey, you know what, this is
too much and that's that's really scary.

Speaker 4 (01:55:50):
Yeah, well, there's no load to what they're willing to do.
You have a cool story I want to.

Speaker 6 (01:55:55):
Hear about this fury and shows how crazy these people are.
This is unsounded. San Diego, California, California. Oh yeah yeah.
The bubble man, it's a Navy vet who he does
bubble making shows for kids and parents, was doing it
in a park in La Jolla and he got cited
for fluid littering from bubbles. Yes, from bubbles.

Speaker 7 (01:56:17):
Apparently on the citation it says soapy bubbles are dangerous
for the grass.

Speaker 6 (01:56:24):
Wow, yeah, it's littering.

Speaker 4 (01:56:26):
Can I ask a question, what did they use for evidence,
because the beauty of bubbles, the beauty of bubbles. I
would just go to court and say, your honor, where's
the evidence that I had bubbles?

Speaker 6 (01:56:38):
Yeah, well he's got to make a court appearance.

Speaker 4 (01:56:40):
Well, the bubble man, I would, I would find it
in court. Show me the evidence that I was blowing
bubbles in the park. Where are the bubbles?

Speaker 6 (01:56:48):
Everybody's got phone?

Speaker 4 (01:56:50):
Where well the evidence? You know, I guess you would
have to because you're not going to able to have
any physically.

Speaker 6 (01:56:56):
What sort of insanity is this? It's just you can't
do it because we don't want you to.

Speaker 4 (01:57:01):
