Speaker 1 (00:02):
This is HUS Radio seven kat RH Houston Live Everywhere
with now the latest news, weather and traffic. It's more
what matters to you. From the John Morris Services Studios.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
It is five am as we get started this morning
here on Houston's Morning News on a Monday, good morning.
Among our top stories this f hour, the left has
gone absolutely insane over Charlie Kirk, a big prayer, vigil,
a Discovery Green and coming up at five o eight,
a lot of Kirk haters are headed to the unemployment line.
Details and the minutes ahead. You're in Houston's Morning News. First,

(00:39):
we're checking out that morning rivee. Good morning, sky Mine
dude two eighty eight north bound. We'll start out.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
We're going up toward the canyon southbound, actually coming down
from the canyon at Calumet Is that always say that
it's a heavy truck stalled sitting on the side. I
think you may have ran into somebody here. It looks
minor for now. They move most of this over there,
making their mind in their own business. The canyon itself
is looking good. Grant Parkway North between twenty nine to
twenty and Kirkindaal there's roadwork listed on our maps.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
I don't believe it. I think it's.

Speaker 3 (01:08):
Overnight leftovers, and I think it's been picked up so
somebody just didn't take it off the screen. But so far,
it looks to me like you're getting by just fine.
Between two forty nine and five, I'm sky Mike. It's
your USA RB Resorts dot Com Traffic Center.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
Bromo r KTRH top Hats Defenders, twenty four hour Weather Center,
Partley Lotty with a temperature right about ninety for a
high today. We'll get Terry Smith in here with the
complete forecast in about nine minutes, currently seventy five at
your official severe weather station, News Radio seven forty KTRH.
It's time now for the news. Here's Cliff Saunders.

Speaker 4 (01:41):
Good morning, Jimmy, and good morning everyone, five oh one
on k TRH.

Speaker 5 (01:45):
Our top story this morning.

Speaker 6 (01:46):
Don't stop with him, don't let him be the end dog,
get rid of them all.

Speaker 4 (01:51):
That is just one example of the radical left and
what they were saying about Charlie Kirk's murder this weekend. Elsewhere,
a man was asted yesterday for trampling a growing memorial
for Kirk outside Turning Point, USA headquarters. And then there
are the vile posts by the teachers of this country
and here at home. The Texas Education Agency is investigating them,

(02:15):
including a Goose Creek ISD teacher who posted on Facebook quote,
could this have been the consequences of his actions coming
up with him? And then there's this Texas Senator Ted
Cruz painted over an f Charlie Kirk piece of graffiti
that popped up over Highway fifty nine. We've got the
video of the Senator doing that on ktrh's Facebook and

(02:38):
x pages. But there was a positive last night about
one thousand people paying tribute to Kirk at Discovery Green.
We have pictures and video of that at ktrh dot com,
and we'll talk to the organizer of the vigil, Jacob
jack Way at seven point fifty A memorial service York

(03:00):
Kirk next Sunday in Arizona at his sixty five thousand
seat stadium. President Trump in attendance. So what does the
future of his movement look like now that he's gone.

Speaker 7 (03:11):
Victoria Taff with PG Media believes there is going to
be an army of Charlie Kirks.

Speaker 8 (03:17):
He will inspire and has inspired millions of younger people to.

Speaker 7 (03:22):
Stand up for the right thing inspired, just like Kirk
himself was inspired.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
He was a rush baby.

Speaker 8 (03:29):
It's mont kept the radio on all the time. Once again,
AM radio comes back, and he became a change agent.

Speaker 7 (03:36):
Seeking change for good. Jeff Biggs News Radio seven forty
Kay t Ree.

Speaker 4 (03:42):
And we'll hear more about turning Point USA's future at
five point thirty from Kirk's widow, Erica. As for the investigation,
the alleged shooter, Tyler Robinson is not talking to police,
but we are finding more out about him.

Speaker 9 (03:55):
We can confirm that his roommate was indeed a boyfriend
and who is transitioning from male to female.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
Utah Governor Spencer Cox with Lara Trump on Fox. Robinson
also is being held under a special watch until he
completes a mental health evaluation. It's now five ho four.
It appears that months of negative media reporting about tariffs
in the economy has worked. Latest Fox number showing President
Trump has a net negative rating on the economy. That's

(04:26):
even though he's got solid support on other issues like
crime in the border.

Speaker 5 (04:29):
Political strategy this flat.

Speaker 4 (04:31):
Davidia says Trump is still digging out of Joe Biden's holes.

Speaker 10 (04:34):
A lot of fundamental weakness has been built into our
economy given the bailed economic policy of Divide administration from
the fact that Democrats controlled Congress.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
In the purse string.

Speaker 10 (04:44):
So a lot of the issues that we're seeing are
really just getting back to square one.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
But there is this Trump does have better ratings than
Joe Biden did when it comes to gas prices, grocery prices,
and housing costs. Also in DC, Texas Republican Congressman Michael
McCall announces he will not run for reelection.

Speaker 11 (05:04):
I'm looking now for a new challenge. I'm going to
serve the remainder of my term, but I'm looking for
a new challenge in the same space. That would be
national security, foreign policy, but just in a different realm.

Speaker 4 (05:18):
He is the third Texas Republican to announce that he
will not run next year for Congress.

Speaker 12 (05:23):
First, it was San Antonio's Congressmanship Roy who announced he
was not seeking reelection. He was followed by Congressman Morgan Latrelle,
who said he's eager to come home to Houston. Democrats
could try and steal their seats, but experts say that's unlikely.

Speaker 13 (05:37):
Both of these seats in Texas Trump won by ken
plus in twenty twenty four.

Speaker 12 (05:42):
SMU political expert Cal Jilson says, on top of that,
the GOP literary distracting effort has cemented their conservative status,
but he predicts Democrats will still field candidates in both races.

Speaker 4 (05:53):
That is krh's Kerry Lockey reporting. It is now five
oh six on KTRH. The Houston Texan host Tampa Bay
and their home opener tonight, their first ever Monday night
football home opener.

Speaker 5 (06:05):
We should add head coach.

Speaker 14 (06:06):
To me go.

Speaker 4 (06:07):
Ryan says, it's special, but every game is important.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
It is football.

Speaker 15 (06:11):
It doesn't matter you're playing on Monday Sunday. When it
doesn't matter, I guess about how you prepare, how you
show up for those sixty minutes.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
This is one of those liberty whiteout games. Kickoff is
at six. After beating Notre Dame, the Texas A and
m agus are now ranked tenth in the latest EP
Top twenty five College Football poll. Now ut did beat UTEP,
but they struggled, so they drop a spot to number eight.
Texas TEP up to seventeen. The Astros lose to the
Braves eight to three. They fall out of first place

(06:41):
in the Al West. They are one game behind Seattle.
Now the Rangers are three back and they'll be at
Dikin Park tonight. Pregame at six on Sports Talk seven ninety,
the game at seven on seven ninety and KGRH. And
I'm Cliff Saunders on Houston's News Weather in traffic station
News Radio seven forty KGRH.

Speaker 16 (07:00):
More with Jimmy Barrett and the Houston Morning News teams.

Speaker 2 (07:04):
This is Houston's Morning News. They can shake off all
the Charlie Kirk hate because at least this time around,
he would appear that inappropriate comments celebrating anybody's assassination, I
don't care who they are, regardless of political persuasion, you know,
to celebrate the devise of somebody murdered, a man with

(07:28):
two young children, murdered for no other reason than his
political beliefs, to celebrate that, that strikes me as a
fireable offense. I would hope it's a fireable efense. Office Depot,
here's a list of some of the firings we've seen.
Office depot fires. An employee who refused to print Charlie
Kirk posters for a customer. It happened in Michigan. The

(07:51):
office supply retailer said in a statement to Fox News
that it's quote deeply concerned by the unfortunate customer experience
that took place at a store in Portage, Michigan. In
the viral video four million views on x as of
Saturday morning, a person recorded can be heard at telling
a tree of employees that they came into the store
earlier in the night to pick up an order for
posters to be used at a vigil. And then along

(08:15):
with that, you you hear the exchange as to why
they're not going to produce the posters or why this
person doesn't want to produce the posters. I mean, that's
your job, right, You're a customer service you work, you know,
you work for office depot. That's what you do. You
don't have the right to refuse service to somebody because

(08:36):
you don't agree with what it is they're celebrating.

Speaker 5 (08:39):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
In the they, according to the report, they say, well
this is this is propaganda. It's a prayer vigil, So
you consider prayer vigil a piece of propaganda. Okay, all right, sorry,
but you're fired. Ohio Metro Health nurse aid Catrin Blainey

(09:03):
celebrated Charlie Kirk's assassination. She reacted to it with the
words Charlie Kirk down, alongside an emoji featuring a yellow
face with a party hab blowing a party horned with confetti.
Her job is to care for patients at a hospital. Instead,
she was celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Following the
recent shooting Charlie Kirk. A post made on personal social

(09:25):
media account associated with a Metro Health employee express us
that are in direct contradiction to the values of our
public health organization. This is from a Metro Health spokesperson.
Metro Health unequivocally stands against violence and remains fully committed
to compassion, dignity and respect in all that we do.
So they went ahead and fired her. She's gone. We

(09:46):
have a former Gawker editor who wrote in a national
magazine that Charlie Kirk was a racist, transphobe, homophobe, misogynist,
and she conceded by saying it's a choice to write
an obituary that begins Joseph Goebels was a gifted marketer
and loving father to six children. So there's the Nazi
comparison again. She's looking for work and then we've got teachers,

(10:11):
even some. I'm surprised by the firefighters part of it.
The firefighters or anybody in that type of first response
type of position would be, you know, be saying things
about celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination. But there have been plenty
of teachers, including here in Houston. I don't know that
any of the well, I don't know that any have
been fired, per se. A lot of these people have

(10:31):
not necessarily fired yet. They're under a leave of absence,
paid leave of absence. Maybe there's waiting to see if
that heat dies down. Five to eleven, time for traffic
and weather together. Are you bored already this morning? Yeah?
I just thought it still sounds like a crackling fire
to me, roasting on an open fire. I love that

(10:53):
CROs sniffing at your gy Yeah, I mean it sounds
like you're folding something. Say why do you do it?
It's bubble wrap. He's oh, bubble rep. It's this therapy
knows bubble rep much cheaper than the psychiatrist. Yeah, thank
you so much.

Speaker 3 (11:10):
All right, all right, Terry, you're perfect to be in here.
Because we're looking around the golf ball. We had some
kind of roadwork from the overnight. Now sometimes when we
closed up on the Grand Parkway North, boy, that gets
awfully messy.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
But I'm looking around double checking.

Speaker 3 (11:25):
It's still showing up on my screens, on some of
our traffic screens, and I don't believe it. Look at
huff Smith, Glenlocke Forrest twenty nine to twenty.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
I'm gonna call it clear.

Speaker 3 (11:34):
I'm just gonna stick my neck out call it clear
for what I see, don't see anything, And of course
remember if you see something I don't see, you know,
I'm just bumping my gums in here. If you see

Speaker 2 (12:07):
Center from r KTRH Top Knacks Defenders twenty four hour
with the center. Terry is here. She's got the forecast
for you. Maybe a little something something in the Atlantic
to talk about again.

Speaker 6 (12:17):
Yes, we're continuing to watch the Atlantic. There's one of
those tropical waves that came off the African coast late
last week that has made its way out in the
middle of the Atlantic, and the Hurricane Center is thinking
we could see some development, some organization where it may
turn into a tropical depression in the next seven days,

(12:40):
not in the next couple of days, but sometime Wednesday
or later.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
So we'll watch it right now, though it looks like.

Speaker 6 (12:49):
It's going to stay out over the open waters of
the Atlantic and make a little bit of a northward drift,
so it's not highly concerning, but just because it's out
there and we don't know where it's going to go
beyond seven days, we're going to continue to watch it
closely and we may see a little something something on
the radar here the.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
Next couple of days.

Speaker 6 (13:12):
But it's only a twenty percent chance of a shower
thunderstorm through Wednesday. Temperatures in the uper eight east till
low nineties through midweek.

News Radio seven forty KRH It's Houston's Morning News brought
to you by New South Windows Solutions. Now back to
Jimmy Barrats and the Houston Morning News team all the
info you need to take on the day. So it's
been very interesting to watch the reaction. Not that I'm

(13:42):
surprised by the reaction on the left, I'm very dis
I'm disappointed in the reaction on the left, and I'm
particularly disappointed that the mainstream media has not used this
as an opportunity to tone things down. Not to say
that everybody in the mainstream media is this way, but
they are a fair amount of people who are still
acting as if this is a good thing that happened.

(14:04):
I'm hard pressed to figure an explanation for it other
than the fact that they must think that they hold
the majority opinion that what they're saying about the assassination
of Charlie Kirk being a good thing is how most
people feel in their little universe. I guess that's what
they think. But it's also been fun to see some
people get called out for their lives and then provided

(14:27):
with the evidence of what it is that they said,
and they still deny it that happened. On Fierce Morgan Uncensored,
I'll share a little clip with you coming up next
first though traffic and whether together you redid it too?
Did you hear about that?

Speaker 17 (14:38):

across the city this weekend. And Jimmy, there is good

Speaker 5 (16:12):
Houston was on Saturday.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
That's bad.

Speaker 4 (16:14):
They're pushing for more bicycle infrastructure. I don't want to
know how many people showed up.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Not if that's how they're going to use it.

That's the latest news anytime ktr H on. Our next
update is at five point thirty.

Speaker 8 (16:28):
Peace talk, President fans for everyday, Good.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
All the day's happening, growing economy right here.

Speaker 5 (16:34):
Good things are happening.

Speaker 2 (16:35):
It's funny Youth Radio seven KTRH. Liars need to be
confronted wherever they are, and I'm pleased to see that,
at least on Piers Morgan's program, uncensored with their panel
that they had, they were pointing out lies and right
in front of the liars and then watching the liars react.

(16:58):
Dave Rubin took on a liberal by the name of
sink Jongam. I think that's how his names pronounced. I
have no idea who had made some very derogatory comments
about Charlie Kirk in the past, including that Charlie Kirk
wanted to be a martyr. Here's Dave Riben.

Speaker 20 (17:12):
I am in somewhat of a reconciliatory mode here, so
I'd like to ask Jank. I have ten he gets
put up about Charlie Kirk. They are on his channel
right now, and let's see if Jank believes that these
are true. Charlie Kirk says prominent black women took white
people's spots. Charlie Kirk boasts about his all white basketball team.
Charlie Kirk gives piggish advice to high school girls. Ex

(17:35):
employee exposes Charlie Kirk's grift Charlie Kirk. Kirk embarrasses himself.
Charlie Kirk's brain melts explaining anti VAX's conspiracy. Charlie Kirk
rants about women in their thirties. Charlie klk Kirk has
literally no clue how the real world works. Charlie Kirk
gets triggered Decline's appearance over pronouns. Charlie Kirk doubles down

(17:56):
on women hating backlash. I am telling you, peers, Charlie
Kirk was one of the best human beings I ever met.
He did not have a bone of racism, misogyny, or
anything else in his body. But liars lie and they
gin up otherwise good people. From the little bit we
know about this shooter, he had a stable household, he
was going to college.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
He was fine.

Speaker 20 (18:16):
We'll find out where he got radicalized. But please, please,
let's not pretend we don't know where this stuff is
coming from. And please let's not pretend that this thing
is going both ways, because it is absolutely not. I
also have a well, you know what, jenk I'll ask
you a question directly, Actually, do you think Charlie.

Speaker 21 (18:32):
Wanted to be martyred? Do you think Charlie wanted to
be martyred. Do you think Charlie wanted to be killed?

Speaker 2 (18:36):
Yes or no? Of course not what kind of ask
My question is that, oh.

Speaker 20 (18:41):
You don't, because that's pretty interesting because here's a video
of you Jank talking when Charlie was at a breakfast.

Speaker 22 (18:47):
It allows for easy martyrdom for these guys and they
don't deserve it. But I do also want to point
on as in they're in the middle of crying now
although Charlie was smiling in a year throughout the entire
video thinking yes, I'm.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
Know the victim.

Speaker 23 (19:04):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
So you get confronted with that stuff and goes, well
you took that. Of course the reaction you took that
out of context. Not really, that's kind of what you said.
And it's kind of like people have forgotten too that
there's a record about what you say, just like there's
a record of what we say on this show. There's
a record of what people say on TV. There's videos

(19:25):
and postings. You can't post stuff, can't post that kind
of hate and then come back later said well that
wasn't me or it was taken out of context. No,
I don't think so, here's exactly what you posted. It
was perfectly in context. Thank you, five twenty six. It
is time to take a look at your money. As
we say good morning to see who's in this morning.

(19:45):
Are you back in this morning, Jeff, Good morning, Good morning, Jimmy, Yes,
I am.

Speaker 24 (19:49):
And the new week on Wall Street is set to
begin with investors focused on the Federal Reserve and the
policy meeting that kicks off tomorrow. It's widely expected interest
rates will be caught for the first time this year.
The only debate among economists is over whether rates will
be cut by a quarter or half a percentage point.
President Trump told reporters last night he expects a big

(20:11):
rate cut. Stocks ended mixed on Friday. Moves by the
major averages were modest. The Nasdaq rose four tens percent
and closed at a record high. The Dow and the
S and P five hundred closed modestly lower. And Demon
Slayer from Sony Pictures was the weekend's number one movie,

Speaker 4 (22:07):
Thank you, Jimmy five thirty one on KTRH and our
top story this morning.

Speaker 25 (22:11):
The movement my husband built will not die.

Speaker 21 (22:15):
It won't.

Speaker 4 (22:16):
Erica Kirk, speaking over the weekend after the assassination of
Charlie Kirk in Utah, promising that Turning Point Ussay's work
would continue.

Speaker 25 (22:25):
If you thought that my husband's mission was powerful before,
you have no idea. You have no idea what you
just have unleashed across this entire country.

Speaker 4 (22:39):
The memorial is set for next Sunday at State Farm
Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. There are sixty five thousand seats
in that building, with President Trump among those going to attend.
There were multiple tributes to Kirk across the country this weekend.

Speaker 26 (22:54):
We look at the movement that Charlie inspired around the world. Love, truth, freedom,
turning to God in good times and hard times, not
asking God what he will do for us. But as
Charlie said, quote, I am far more interested in God
and what God wants from me than what I want.

Speaker 4 (23:12):
From God, Zelsi Gabbard at the prayer viginal in Washington.
Hundreds turned out to a vigil at Discovery Green last night.
More on that at six o'clock, and even some of
the woke world of professional sports honored Kirk this weekend.

Speaker 17 (23:26):
This week's obviously been a very tough week, and you
know there's a lot on her mind and just this.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Looks for Charlotte.

Speaker 4 (23:33):
Yes, Car's Christopher Bell on the USA Network after his
wings Saturday night at Bristol. Kirk's assassination shocked the entire world,
and it could be a major turning point in the US,
not just politically, but maybe also spiritually.

Speaker 18 (23:48):
Carling Kirk, before he was a political commentator, was somebody
who boldly proclaimed the name of Jesus. And he did
that to the right and the left. And there are
those on the right and the left who both need
to hear that.

Speaker 4 (23:59):
Political consul than Luke Mascia says the biggest shift could
likely come as a result of the left's reaction to
Kirk's murder. The left continuing to mock Kirth over the weekend.
And even though they now say political violence was wrong,
this was what Democrat Connecticut Senator Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy
said the day before the assassination for.

Speaker 27 (24:19):
The war right now to save this country, and so
you have to be willing to do whatever is necessary
in order to save the country.

Speaker 4 (24:26):
Also posting on x DO quote something dark might be coming.
As for the suspect, Tyler Robinson said not to be
cooperating with police. Fox reports that Robinson's trans roommate, slash
Lover quote hates Conservatives and Christians five point thirty four
now on KTRH. More violent crime across Houston over the weekend.
The man's shot near a soccer complex and Aldan yesterday.

(24:50):
Deputyes are continuing to look into that. And we now
know that the next city President Trump is going to
clean charm up in is in Red Tennessee.

Speaker 21 (24:58):
We're going to Memphis.

Speaker 5 (25:00):
Memphis is that's the next city. Deeply troubled Trump on
Fox News.

Speaker 4 (25:05):
That city led by Democrats, and new data shows more
bad crime numbers for progressive led cities. Ted Jenkins, the
president of Exit Stage Left Advisors.

Speaker 28 (25:16):
There's been a lot of discussion around crime and the
National Guard hitting some of these big blue lead cities,
and I decided to dive deeper and Joe look at
the numbers and retail has reported almost one hundred percent
increase in the average number of shoplifting incidents.

Speaker 4 (25:31):
He found that retail crime is up ninety three percent
since twenty nineteen, and New York City is on pace.
Till was four billion dollars in tourism dollars this year,
it's now five point thirty five. The man arrested for
a brutal beheading in Dallas, well, it turns out he's
an illegal alien from Cuba and that country refused to
take him back. Your Donnis Cobos Martinez was released from

(25:55):
ICE custody on January thirteenth, seven days before Donald try
Trump took over. In other words, this was on Joe
Biden's watch. President Trump has shut the border down and
the State of Texas is helping Trump send thousands of
illegals back home.

Speaker 29 (26:10):
This is due to DPS's partnership with federal agencies cracking
down on illegal immigration.

Speaker 30 (26:15):
The federal government i CVP, we're grateful for the help
Texas gave us during the crisis under Biden that the
border Texas was instrumental.

Speaker 29 (26:23):
Senior CBP advisor Ron Vittello says the help from Texas
DPS officers is making their job a lot easier.

Speaker 30 (26:29):
We have more time on task, more patrol hours by agents,
more rescues of people in, more discovery of people who
are being trafficked.

Speaker 29 (26:37):
Vitello added that this could encourage more legal aliens to
take advantage of the option to self deport. Ethan Buchanan

NOW five thirty six, nearly twenty years after the Astrodome
was closed, we are no closer to a plan on
what to do with the eighth wonder of the world.
In fact, after the recent delay of a study on
the dome, we might be further away than ever.

Speaker 31 (26:58):
Their thing at the point of study is to find
out what the cost would be to make it functional again,
so fixing the h back and things like that, and
then alternatively, what the cost would be to tear it down.

Speaker 4 (27:11):
Charles Blaining with urban reform This comes after the Astrodome
Conservancy announced their proposal to turn the dome into a
shopping and sports venue. The Astros lose to the Braves
eight to three. They are now in second place in
the AL West, the game behind Seattle. They host the
Rangers tonight coverage at six on Sports Talk seven ninety
the game at seven on seven ninety and KTRH, and

(27:32):
the Texans host the Bucks and the home opener at

on your free iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 2 (27:58):
Oh, I can't wait to see. Do you think of
this idea? We'll make a question to day out of
this one five poin thirty at our time here in
Houston's morning news, a right new trend with couples at
wedding receptions setting up credit card machines, and not just
at the bar by the way, but also at tables.

(28:20):
Every table has a credit card machine, you know, like
you like the ones you see at the restaurants where
you can pay your own bill, right and it's sitting
there on the table, and your bill comes up, and
you swipe your card and you pay for it there
and do everything right there at your table so that
the weight person doesn't have to process that for you.

(28:41):
Here's the whole story for you. Fifty seven percent of
couples opt to have an open bar at their wedding,
but it's expensive. The average cost of alcohol the wedding
is over twenty four hundred dollars, so some couples opt
to save money by asking guests to pay for the drinks. Well, okay,
but that's no longer an opening bar. If you have
to pay for your drink, it's not an open bar. Right.

(29:02):
But now there's a new reason. Couples are setting up
their credit card machines to help pay for the honeymoon.
Here's a couple that tried it, said the guests loved it.
They had the credit card machines at the tables. They're
also signs with QR codes with a message you're ready
for this, don't be tight, pay for our flight. And

(29:26):
then the couple explained the proceeds would go towards their
honeymoon in Mexico. They didn't reveal how much they made,
but they said their guests absolutely loved it. They did
it instead of accepting wedding presents. They've been together for
fourteen years, already had a house. They got a toaster,
they got a coffee maker, they got all the usual things.
They didn't need any of that. So tell you what, Cat,
I've noticed this a lot, because you know, I've had

(29:48):
the nieces and nephews getting married. It's the same thing
with them. They don't want gifts anymore. They want cash. Well,
instead of having cash because not everybody carries cash anymore,
credit card re So here's my question to you. Do
you think this is a great idea? Do you think
this is just a little bit tacky? What are your
thoughts credit card readers at tables at a wedding reception?

(30:12):
Would you be happy to use that or would you
find that tacky? You go to the iHeartRadio ap KTRH.
You hit the talkback button once you get there, but
Mike a number one in your preset, Please get the
thirty seconds, first name, where you're calling from, and your
thoughts on credit card readers at wedding receptions five forty
time for traffic and weather together. Sc guy Mike loves

(30:32):
that idea. You know, they kind of actually have that
Jimmy because.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
You have like a little money tree at some weddings
and then some deals I have like a gift thing
where you can put an envelope with cash, and then
while they have the old fashioned dollar dance, which I'm
not a fan of. And all I can tell you
is when you go to a wedding, stop texting, get
into the moment and leave the DJ alone.

Speaker 2 (30:54):
Okay, let's do.

Speaker 3 (30:56):
Some two eighty eight southbound Calumet. They've cleared that truck thing.
It was no big who we look good to go.
In fact, if you're coming up from the north south
side to the north side, let's come up from Angleton
and whoa look out, Stephen F.

Speaker 2 (31:08):
Austin northbound. We look good.

Speaker 3 (31:10):
I will call in a twenty three minutes up Southwest
Freeway sugar Land in eighteen minutes from the fountains into
downtown Rock and long west part of Graham Parkway. I
don't have to talk you up much. When we do
have something there. It's a doozy two ninty down to
sugar Land. We're in good shape, and the rest of
your freeways rock. I do want to devil check something
right around the east text where it hits the north, Sam,

(31:32):
if you're trying to catch a plane, and we'll do
that at the five fifty break. I'm in the USA
RV Resorts dot Com traffic center.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
Terry Whent's the last time you went to a wedding?
What three weeks ago?

Speaker 21 (31:43):
Oh? Whose was it?

Speaker 2 (31:44):
My brother had one of his children. They got me. Oh, okay,
what was your gift? Was you give to a thing
or was it cash? I gave him a thing? Actually, oh,
you gave them a thing. Col did.

Speaker 22 (31:59):
So well.

Speaker 6 (32:00):
They're both in their twenties and you know, fairly new
out of college and starting their job. So I thought
they had requested this is something off their list, but
it was a specific kind of tea kettle kind of thing.

Speaker 2 (32:14):
So that's what we gave them. Did you shake your booty?
You bet? I shook my booty. Honey, I'm out of here.
I've taken that time from Katy our Age Generator super Center,
twenty four hour wether So I'm trying to get that. No,
I don't want to get that image, my dad, So
I want to dwell on that image for a little
bit while you give us the forecast.

Speaker 6 (32:32):
Okay, Well, we got some subtle changes, and I'm super
excited about that because the rain is coming back very
very slowly. It's only a twenty percent chance of a
shower thunderstorm today, but the heating of the day is
kicking in and we've got sufficient humidity for that slight
possibility of rain today, Tomorrow and Wednesday, and the temperature's

(32:56):
uper eight east to low nineties, and then a slightly
better chance of rain Thursday and Friday, a thirty percent
chances some thundershowers, but we've got whatber temperatures.

Speaker 2 (33:22):
It is five point fifty now Here in Houston's Morning News,
there's a publication called New Republic that is urging Democrats
to shun any empathy for Charlie Kirk or Charlie Kirk's
family in the wake of that assassination. Vladavidio will join
SGP Political Strategist to talk about if this is a strategy.
This strikes me some bad strategy. We'll talk to him

What's happening today?

Speaker 2 (35:06):
Happened?

Speaker 21 (35:06):
I can't know what happens.

Speaker 13 (35:08):
Good things are happening right here.

Speaker 2 (35:10):
On news Radio seven KTRH. Yeah. The reaction to the
killing of Charlie Kirk has been it's it's been. It's
been rough to see, it's been difficult to see. I
will say this, if there's anything positive about it. This, this,
this shocking incident has gotten virtually everybody on both sides

(35:33):
to make their positions known. So people that you may
not have even known were Charlie Kirk haters and further
left than you ever dreamed they possibly could be. You
now know, don't you. Family Members have been outed, friends
have been outed. Some of the things that people have
been willing to post on social media have made people go, well,

(35:57):
I guess you're not my friend anymore. It's been a
for a lot of folks. Led Vidia joins us GEOP
political strategist. I've never quite seen anything quite like this
on both ends of the extreme review.

Speaker 10 (36:10):
It's been a long time since we've seen something like this,
and it's shocking and alarming to see how deeply divided
we are as a republic, not only from one state
to another, or one political party to another, but as
you mentioned, from one family to another. It's shocking to

(36:30):
see how many times we are encountering incidents where family
members are diametrically opposed and have come out not only
totally opposite sides of this, but turn that difference on
each other. So it's definitely something needs to be addressed.

Speaker 17 (36:46):
Well.

Speaker 2 (36:46):
The thing that's kind of interesting about it, too, is
that the knee drik reaction when this whole thing happened.
I heard from a young member of my own family
who said, hey, he's a Christian, he grew up Mormon,
he's from a Republican household, you know, and I'm well,
wait a minute, to hang on, I don't think you
know the entire story here. And as it turns out,
somehow he was radicalized, he had a trans or becoming

(37:09):
a transgender boyfriend, clearly not following the teachings of the
Mormon Church. There just because you come from a conservative
family doesn't mean you're a conservative, no.

Speaker 10 (37:21):
And what we have seen is in this particular case
and this assassin is has been repeated time and time
again where families that have worked to really inculcate those
values that the deep moral underpinnings of empathy and understanding

(37:41):
and care and concern for the world and trying to
find a build a character that gives back to society
is completely undermined and warped and twisted by society, especially
in our university system, which is you know, when we
when we see kids go in university systems into colleges,

(38:02):
they are very quickly taught not only by their professors
who vast majority, as we're seeing this week, are very
twisted leftist and celebrate murder of conservative people on the right,
but from their peers as well, because in that culture
there is extremely high pressure to conform and to submit

(38:28):
to the hateful ideology and the twisted ideas of leptism
that dominator American universities.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
Well, what's been I guess, somewhat gratifying is to see
that certainly probably not having the teaching profession at the
level that it should, but there are plenty of other
professions where we have people who have made very hateful
statements about the assassination of Charlie Kirk and have paid
for it with their jobs. And what's also interesting to
me is how shot they are. Clearly they're living in
their own little vacuum here. They must think that they

(38:59):
really hold the majority ofinion when they think that Charlie
Kirk had it coming. They think that they hold the
majority opinion on this.

Speaker 10 (39:06):
Yeah, the vast majority of these people not only think
that they hold the majority opinion, but because they're so isolationists,
they're so they're so siloed that I can't tell you
how many comments I've seen, even to my own family
and across social media where people on the left refuse
to engage, refuse to speak with, refuse to associate with

(39:30):
anyone outside of their leftist bubble. And when something like
this happens, they're shocked that anyone has an opinion opposite
of theirs. It's incredible that they have isolated themselves so much.
They only hear the leftist voice, they only hear the
voice of hatred and anger and fear, and outside of

(39:51):
that anything cannot penetrate. So when people express sympathy and
when people express respect and admiration for Charlie Kirk and
share that they too take those feelings and those ideas
and those ideologies and those those values and bring them forward.
They're shocked.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
Yeah, they are, Thank you, sir. Good to hear from you.

About a thousand people turned out to honor the late
Charlie Kirk at a prayer visual last night at Discovery Green.
We've got picton video from our own Ethan Buchanan online
at KTRH dot com. Meantime, the left continues to mock Kirk,
Texas Senator Ted Cruz painting over and f Charlie kirkp
of graffiti over Highway fifty nine.

Speaker 10 (42:02):
It's been a long time since we've seen something like this,
and it's shocking and alarming to see how deeply divided
we are as a republic.

Speaker 4 (42:13):
Political analyst Ladavid Yick moments ago on Houston's Morning News
outside of Houston, a Department of Transportation worker, federal government
worker confronted for protesting at a Kirk vigil.

Speaker 5 (42:25):
So it got just John murdered, and you're going to
see it out here in protests of vigil forums, not.

Speaker 3 (42:30):
A protest, I'm informing Catholic cons it doesn't matter if
somebody just got murdered.

Speaker 4 (42:37):
And then there are the online comments being made by
the left, many by teachers now under investigation, including one
Goose Creek ISSD teacher who went online and said the
assassination was the consequences of Kirk's actions. His memorial will
be held at the Arizona Cardinals football Stadium next Sunday.
Political analyst Victoria Taft tells KTRH she thinks the murder

(43:00):
will unleash an army of young conservatives.

Speaker 8 (43:03):
There will be people inspired who will pick up the
manholes left it behind by Charlie Kirk. As those people
will be able to take that message forward. Charlie Kirk
will never be forgotten.

Speaker 4 (43:15):
By the way, Vice President J d Vance will host
Kirk's podcast today. As for the investigation, the alleged shooter,
Tyler Robinson is being held under a special watch until
he completes a mental health evaluation. We also know that
Robinson was living with his trans lover.

Speaker 5 (43:37):
He is not confessed two authorities.

Speaker 9 (43:39):
He is not cooperating, but all the people around him
are cooperating, and I think that's very important.

Speaker 4 (43:48):
Utah Governor Spencer Cox on ABC it's now six oh five,
and there are other political news stories to tell you
about Congress as about two weeks to get a spending
deal done or risk a partial government shutdown.

Nobody wants to shut down.

Speaker 2 (44:06):
We all again, you know, this is what politics is about.

Speaker 30 (44:09):
We all get it in our corners that we want
our things, but we have to look for common ground.

This is for your information. Everything we do.

Speaker 29 (44:57):
The latest information on is f y guys in the
Russian suma Arabson trade these Radio seven KTRH.

Speaker 2 (45:06):
You know fashion, fashion goes in a cyclical way. You know,
what's new is old again, and what's old is new again,
and what have you. But there has been a trend
for a long long time. I certainly have noticed this.
Maybe you've noticed to two. If you look at some
of the postings you see on social media, in particular

(45:26):
from proud moms who are posting pictures of their daughters
posting with their friends for homecoming wearing really really short skirts,
I mean barely covering the butt kind of skirts. You know,

(45:46):
these are fifteen, sixteen, seventeen year old kids. For the
most part, we've seen this in prom dresses for a
long long time now. It's kind of worked this way
into homecoming too. Necklines are deep, straps are small or
not existent, headlines shorter and shorter. They do know, they
don't look like styles that you would normally go out
and find for a young team. But these parents are

(46:10):
posting these pictures with a great deal of pride. I'm
not sure. I guess maybe maybe we've gotten to the
point now where these the bombs of these fifteen and
sixteen year olds wore short skirts themselves and they don't
see anything wrong with it. Maybe we have come, you know,
we have fallen to peer pressure. This is what everybody's doing,

(46:33):
So this is what our kids have to do, or
else they'll be rejected by their friends. I'm not sure,
but I'd love to love to guess. Maybe we should
throw this into the question of the day too. We
can we can we can cover a couple of things.
You can go to the iHeart Radio I have KTRH
and tell me what you think about what we're seeing
with homecoming dresses. We've seen it with prom dresses, but

(46:53):
in homecoming dresses this is becoming more prevalent too. Are
we How long is this cycle going to last? Where
we have very young teen girls, girls who are dressing
in really super short skirts. I mean, there's no doubt
that they're gonna be people who are gonna look at
these pictures of your sixteen year old daughter and you
know they're gonna they're gonna have some pretty perverted thoughts
about it. President Company, non included, Thank you. But I

(47:18):
wonder if if parents stop to think anything about that,
you know, how they're presenting their child, or or we
just willing to say this is just fashion right now,
this this is the way it goes. You have the
iHeart Radio app KTRH. You get up to thirty seconds
on the talk back button first name, where you're calling
from your thoughts on these really short dresses we're seeing
at homecoming this year. And also we're also doing a

(47:39):
question to day, What was ourly question that I already
forgot what the other question today was, Mike, do you
remember wedding stuff? Wedding? That's right, the credit card machine.

Speaker 3 (47:46):
How do you feel about you know, credit card machine
to donate to the wedding film?

Speaker 2 (47:50):
You show up, You show up, the wedding reception in
the open bar ain't so open? I'd rather you'd rather
do that than the dollar answer the dollar tree. I
don't know. I guess if you know ahead of time maybe,
but if that's all they want, yeah, I know there's
a lot of couples out there. They're asking for cash.
They don't they don't want the traditional gifts. They want money.
So that's one way to get your money, I guess

(48:12):
because a lot of people don't care. How bitch, whole
bunch of kess. They got those QR codes too for
some of the vendors. You know what, tip the bartender,
especially those poor bartenders. They work so hard. Here about
that one winning though. I mentioned though that they had
the QR code and under the QR code said don't
be tight, pay for our flight. All love that. That's
awesomes go the iheard radio. If you can comment on

(53:44):
guest though what. He thinks she's vice Chair of Texas For,
Young Republicans. Hannahbeth jones welcome to, The. SHOW hannah i
know there's a thank you for. Having me you bet
there's a Lot Of charlie kirk supporters. Out there so
what happens in the vacuum mat for? His, DEATH.

Speaker 34 (53:58):
Yeah i think we're at a time we're really curage is,
just required so now it's. Not optional we have to
speak our mind and live consistent with the values. We
profess more clarity is just not optional at, this point
and we get the privilege of Following In charlie kirk's
footsteps and, being bold whether that's like him in a
debate form on a, main stage or if that's just
in our local circles and, our communities at our jobs

(54:20):
and in the neighborhoods we.

Speaker 2 (54:22):
LIVE in i think you probably have to continue the
ministry of going to college campuses and debating, young people. Don't?

Speaker 34 (54:27):
You, Oh ABSOLUTELY and i feel very lucky that there's
so many conservative groups across the State. In Texas The,
young Republicans The Turning, point chapters And The, college republicans
The d Conservatives. Of texas they are all doing our
little parts across the state to make sure that young
people are engaged with other ideas than maybe some.

Speaker 2 (54:46):
Of the liberal junks they're hearing. On campus, you, know
though that if you, do that there's a chance you're
putting your life on. The line do you have membership
this willing to?

Speaker 29 (54:53):
Do?

Speaker 34 (54:54):
That really, AND obviously i mean nobody hopes for, that,
outcome certainly but freedom is worth. Fighting for and obviously
that's kind of What's made america so great is that
we've always had people that have been willing to risk
their life and pay the ultimate price to preserve our
freedom and expand.

Speaker 2 (55:13):
Our freedom here has THERE been, i know there's been
obviously an outpouring on some, college campuses and especially among
those who are already members of turning point on. COLLEGE
campuses i guess my question, would be, has this for
lack of A, better trevis this's been somewhat of a
recruiting tool that they've been more college students who have
come forward AND say i want to be a part
of this as a result of what Happened.

Speaker 34 (55:34):
To, CHARLIE yes i mean we've Seen and i've talked
to so many of our leaders across the state that,
has said you can't believe how many people have asked
me about joining our clubs and have reached out to
me about learning about MORE what i do and why
we should care, about this because there were a lot
of people that, maybe, Thought yeah i'm CONSERVATIVE and i Care,
about America but i'm just going to. Vote right and

(55:56):
those people are kind of done. With that now they've
seen what passivism, get this and so they're almost awoken
to the idea, that hey we have to. Take action
this doesn't just happen. By accident we don't have a
wonderful state and a wonderful country just.

Speaker 2 (56:10):
By, accident yeah it's been interesting, to Me and i'm
sure you've seen the dead your organization, as well that
there Have been there have been people who have been
willing to, stand up and they have been willing to
Say That charlie kirk, deserved this that he had, this coming.
NOT mercifully a lot of these people are getting suspended,
or FIRED but i think they're shocked that they they're

(56:33):
in the minority. POSITION here i think they really think
that by, saying this that that most people agree. With
them that that's shocking.

Speaker 12 (56:39):
To me.

Speaker 34 (56:41):
That is truly shocking, me TOO because i genuinely can't think,
of anybody, you know even the most radical LEFTISTS that
i would wish wish. THAT on i think that's What
makes america, so great right is that we get to
debate ideas and not die. For them there are countries
where that is not, an Option and america should be
the beacon of hope that discussion and discourse is.

Act itself Political Consultant luke massia says this could lead

Speaker 21 (01:05:34):
Keep happening and it's not a.

Speaker 40 (01:05:37):
SIMPLE answer i always think of my patients in four,
Big circles so what's the?

Speaker 21 (01:05:42):
Underlying biology we are.

Speaker 40 (01:05:44):
Sicker than we have, ever been which means our brains.
Are Sicker At, aman clinics we do a study called
brain spectimagy and it looks a blood flow. And Activity
and i've scanned over one, hundred murderers a thousand, convicted
felons and they do not have. HEALTHY brains i sent

(01:06:06):
an image of a healthy scan compared to one of the,
mass murderers and his brain is.

Speaker 21 (01:06:14):
Very damaged but it's not.

Speaker 40 (01:06:16):
Just biology we always have to think of what are the,
biological factors the, psychological factors the social and even. Spiritual
factors fifty eight percent of young people have no sense
of meaning, or purpose and all of these. Things matter
most of them actually don't understand the algorithms and.

Speaker 21 (01:06:38):
The bots that.

Speaker 40 (01:06:40):
Spew HATRED when i posted about my friendship and Love,
for charlie lots of people, loved it but they're all.

Speaker 21 (01:06:50):
These Haters and, i'm like why are you? Hating me
but when you actually go to.

Speaker 40 (01:06:54):
Their accounts they have zero or, no followers so you know.
Their bots and this is a big issue in our
society because the, more hatred the, more clicks the, more
clicks the. More money and we have to be so careful.
With THIS and i think we social media for under

(01:07:17):
sixteen because they saw. The research this is devastating to our.
Children's brands we're in the biggest brain and mental health epidemic.

Speaker 2 (01:07:27):
AND history i think one of the things we have
to remember here is that there are probably foreign powers, At,
Work china russia who would love us to continue to
turn on, one another hate on, one another kill. One
another and they're part of what's happening with. Our society
they are the ones that are fostering. The HATE and

(01:07:49):
i also predict that as we, go along we're going
to Find some, IN fact i have one other influence
On the utah Shooter knows i'm not using, his name
and that would be the boyfriend. SLASH girlfriend i say
that because it's a transgender individual in the process of
changing sex from male. To female although in my, belief

(01:08:12):
system you don't really change. Your sex you may change,
your equipment but you're not you're not changing. The chromosomes
and if you can't change, the chromosomes you're not changing.
The sex but at any rate that influence of, that
individual that individual may, be cooperating but that individual may
be the person who persuaded the shooter that, You Know
charlie kirk had. To die more in the story coming up.

Speaker 2 (01:25:53):
Very latest on your way. To work This Is Houston's
morning News With. Jimmy, Barrett, RIGHT so i asked story
this morning about brides. And grooms this is becoming. Increasingly popular,
you know brides and grooms these days prefer cash for
the most part. VERSUS gifts, i mean some still do
the traditional, gift thing but they're usually younger couples who

(01:26:17):
haven't started a household. Together yet you know how rare
that is. These days, you know two people that aren't
already cohabitating perhaps. FOR years, i mean when you co
habitate with somebody for years and you have a, house
together you buy all. That stuff you don't need all.
That stuff so it's only it's only, the young more
traditional brides and grooms that, are asking, you know that

(01:26:39):
have a wedding registry and all that kind. Of stuff
the rest of them are opting, for cash and they let, you,
know yes we'd like cash or a lieu. Of cash
because people don't seem to carry that much. Cash anymore
brides and grooms Are, frigging hey we can get folks
to help defray the cost of the least. The reception
we'll put up credit, card terminals, you KNOW and qr

(01:27:03):
codes so that, people can, you know help contribute towards, the,
bar which, of course don't advertise an open bar if
you want people to contribute to, the bar because it's
no longer an, open bar it's a. Cash bar or
like in the case of this, one couple THEY had
qr codes up with the along with the credit card terminals,
that said don't, be tight pay for our flight because

(01:27:26):
they're trying to raise money for. Their honeymoon so my
question of the day one. Of, them anyway At The
iHeart RADIO, ab ktrh you hit the talkback button up to.
Thirty seconds first thing where you're? Calling from and what
do you think of credit card terminals at? Wedding receptions
this a? Great idea is? This tacky what do? YOU think?
I mean it could be maybe a great idea?

Speaker 42 (01:27:45):

There man my brothers and my three brothers in my
First coun we played forty two years for weddings and
we sold, The brideshoe we had the. Brides dance they
had a mailbox over there for, the money they had

(01:28:05):

our wedding we never had such a thing as a
credit card machine at.

Speaker 2 (01:28:15):

as time is. Going on all, these, fifteen sixteen seventeen
year old girls for prom and now, for homecoming they're
all wearing these really, low cut, you know, really short really.

(01:29:19):

The day so if you've spent any time on, Social
media by, the way anybody want to disagree with me
that the social media is? THE devil i, mean it
really social media is part and parcel of what the.
Problem is the GOOD news i guess about social media
is if there are any doubt who the haters in your,
life are they've all shown themselves over the Death Of.

(01:32:30):
Charlie kirk so maybe that's not such a. Bad thing
you know exactly where family members stand that maybe you didn't,
know before where friends stand that you maybe didn't realize
before exactly where they stood on something. Like this so
maybe it hasn't been all. That bad but there are
going to be some broken relationships that come out of
this thanks to, social media and there are some people

(01:32:51):

iHeartRadio, app. YEAH plendy i hate to go around in
social media. Right NOW, Johnny Us Texas state Representative Of,
Mitch little welcome to. The Show. Representative little the tea
in the process of investigating teachers and school staff for
any social media posts that have been made about the
Assassination Of, charlie kirk with the idea that there will

(01:34:51):
be at the very. Least suspensions we've seen teachers in
virtually every saint who have posted some pretty. DESPICABLE things
i don't know if we're being more aggressive of these
teachers in other. States are if, we, are fine, That's
GOOD but i guess the Question becomes is this a
matter of free speech or is this a matter of
somebody who is in our public school system representing a

(01:35:13):
public school system in a very.

Speaker 17 (01:35:14):
Bad, Way, SURE jimmy i think our problem is much bigger.

Speaker 2 (01:35:20):
Than, that yes it is a matter of.

Speaker 17 (01:35:21):
Free speech the problem is that these teachers and administrators
apparently have no fear whatsoever.

Speaker 2 (01:35:28):
From their school board or their.

Speaker 17 (01:35:29):
Local superintendent why would you say THAT is i mean
they're supposed to worry about pished and some Bureaucrat.

Speaker 2 (01:35:36):
In, austin yeah they're not worried about. Being punished.

Speaker 17 (01:35:40):
They have no fear of being. Punished whatsoever we have
a much. Bigger problem at, some point people are going
to have to start going to the school boards, and,
say look you take care of, this person you fire,
this person or we're going to fire you.

Speaker 2 (01:35:54):
Fair ENOUGH and i think that this might be the
exact a that might cause that. To happen there seems
to have been a seismic shift with the Assassination Of.
Charlie Kirk you've you've got people who before might have
been willing to just look the, other way, ignore it
not say anything, about it not want to. Make waves

(01:36:17):
but that seems to have changed with. This incident surely
we've crossed. The rubicon you know what was fascinating was
my church was a lot. FULLER yesterday i bet yours, Was.
Too jimmy it's people are changing their minds about what
evil is and what the state of our country and our,
state is and we're at an inflection POINT where i

(01:36:39):
think things are really going to start heading in the.
Right direction this is the public Response to charlie's death
from a lot of these teachers and administrators and people just,
You know i've had to cleanse, my friend My friend
Timeline on. Facebook too it just reminds us of what we're.
Up against and unity for a unity's sake is not

(01:37:00):
a Value that. God espouses and if we're going, to
unify we need to be unified around the truth and
things that. Are good, YOU know i post a couple
of Messages on facebook that surprised me the reactions that
got and who he got the, reaction FROM because i
SAID something i felt was pretty obvious and pretty, is innocent,
which is, you know it's pretty clear that we're dealing

(01:37:21):
with evil and the only thing you can do with
evil is to. Eradicate it amen.

Speaker 10 (01:37:26):
TO that, i mean that's just.

Speaker 17 (01:37:28):
The truth but what, The problem our bigger problem is
that we have more people in our circle who.

Speaker 2 (01:37:35):
Espouse those views than. We realize it's.

Speaker 17 (01:37:37):
JUST latent i don't know if you Caught the emmy's,
last night this woman who is Who is jewish in
her acceptance speech f ice And. Free palestine these are not.
Extreme views these are mainstream views on, the left and
we need to remember.

Speaker 2 (01:37:55):
That WELL and i think that's part of the reason
to get back to the original content we were talking
about HERE that i think that you probably do, as
well think that that's part of the reason why people
are so willing to say these things is they really
do believe they're in. The majority because they they're they. Feel,
safe yes they're in. A vacuum they're in, a vacuum
and they feel that everybody believes the same way that,
they believe and they're shocked when they find out that

(01:38:16):
there are people. Who, don't.

Speaker 17 (01:38:18):
Yeah they're back to the free, Speech. Issue jimmy they're
entitled to express, these views and we the people are
entitled to decide we don't want to pay.

Speaker 2 (01:38:28):
For them amen. To that and if you're a parent out,
there right and you you have seen what one of
the teachers at what are your child's schools. Has said
don't you have, Every, right mitch as a parent to
go into that school system, to say under no circumstances
will my child ever be in that in that. Person's?

they are not accountable, to us who are they accountable TO?

Speaker 2 (01:47:07):
Very sweet but as far as the, honeymoon itself do
you think it's a good idea or a bad idea
to raise money for the honeymoon at the wedding reception
by putting up credit? Card terminals this is going to
be a more, common thing Is born more couples opt

(01:47:27):
for cash versus a actual gift gift to make it
easy for you, to contribute whether it's to the, open bar. Because,
alcohol hey alcohol, is expensive and you all are drinking
a lot, Of alcohol so how about a little contribution
to the. Cause here, of course you could always have a,

(01:47:49):
cash bar right then it's pretty obvious everybody has to
pay for their drinks and you won't have anybody maybe
drinking so much that they get. Crazy drunk but this
one couple even had credit card journals up in little
SIGNS with. Qr codes don't, be tight pay for? Our
flight trying to raise money for? Their honeymoon is this

(01:48:11):
just the new reality of going, to weddings that this
is what couples do now and they think it's perfectly,
go okay do you think this? Is tacky you think
this is a good way to? Raise money that's our
question of, The day.

Speaker 14 (01:48:22):
Good morning having a vending credit card machine and a
wedding is ridiculous, and tacky and you need to just
not have that thick of a wedding if you have
to beg. For more many second thing is wearing those
giffy little dresses to homecoming. And prom. That's ridiculous they should,
be ashamed and the parents should be ashamed because they're
not teaching their girls how to.

Be, Ladies, hey.

Speaker 23 (01:48:44):
Jimmie This is rick From The. East side we have

Course slutty is that the word you're? Looking for, you,
know listen as a, teenage boy as a former, teenage
boy teenage boys are not going to object to young
women dressing that way quite, quite honestly they will. Encourage
IT and i get the whole peer pressure. Thing right

(01:49:27):
all the girl's friends are dressing. Like this i'm sure
there are plenty of moms and parents in general out
there are a little, bit concerned like who? That's honey
that dress is, Sure short but you know when they
put the pressure on you because all their friends are
dressing the. SAME way, i mean do you want to
be the parent who has the daughter who's wearing a

(01:49:48):
longer skirt because you were the one that objected. To it,
You know it's. It's, tough hopefully hopefully fashion fashion. Trends

Seven. Fifty two now Here in houston's worn of news
right little update In The charlie. Kirk killing the Assassination,
of CHARLIEKIRK the. UTAH shooter i don't want or need
to use. His name his name's popping. Up, Enough yeah
i'm not saying he did this out. OF notoriety i
think he just did this out. Of hate and the
boyfriend may have been a motivating factor with never mays.

(01:56:05):
Be seen at least the boyfriend soon to be a
girlfriend has evidently been. Very COOPERATIVE but i would really
like to know in depth how much more this boyfriend
slash girlfriend might. Have known maybe the cooperation is coming
from not wanting to get in trouble. Themselves anyway HERE

(01:56:26):
Is Fbi Director cash bettel with the latest on.

Speaker 45 (01:56:29):
The investigation we were able to obtain in record time
the text message chain between the suspect and his live,
in partner as well as other critical cellular information from
our cast team that analyzes cell phone data towers in
the area to pinpoint the locations of the suspect and
other individuals he was. Speaking with this is critical information

(01:56:51):
THAT the fbi processed and got to prosecutors so they
can lawfully use it in the court. Of law and,
our investigation our interviews, con tinke but we've learned some
shocking things when we spoke to his family and friends.

Speaker 21 (01:57:04):
As well you want to, share them? Not sure and,
my job my JOB.

Speaker 45 (01:57:11):
As fbi director is not to speak, to motive is
to speak to, the facts and That's what i'm going.
To do his family has collectively told investigators that he
subscribed to left wing ideology and even more so in
these last couple, of years and he had a text
message exchange he this suspect with another individual in which

(01:57:34):
he claimed that he had an opportunity to Take Out
charlie kirk and he was going to do it because
of his hatred For what charlie. Stood for those are
factually accurate investigatory findings BY the fbi that we've handed
over to the local authorities and the federal authorities to
make their. Prosecutoral DECISIONS but i believe in this instance
of such, public importance the public has a right to.

Speaker 2 (01:57:56):
Know that's some very. Interesting information so there's a. Text
chain this adds to another layer to the story because
one of the Things is i'm listening, to this one
of The things i'm, Wondering, is okay was he texting
after He Killed charlie kirk or was he texting before
He Killed. Charlie kirk because if he's texting beforehand that

(01:58:22):
he's going To Get, charlie kirk he's going to, kill
him he's on his way to, do that or he's
thinking about, doing that whatever, that is that seems to
me that the person or person's receiving those texts have a.
Moral obligation we'll see if they have a, legal obligation

(01:58:43):
but they certainly have a moral obligation to report that.
To authorities and if none of them reported it, to
authorities if they heard from the, killer himself beforehand that
he was going to do this and they did absolutely nothing,
About it then, THEY too, i believe should be prosecuted

(01:59:03):
to the fullest extent of. The law are they Responsible
For charlie? Kirk's death, maybe so maybe at least. Partially
so did they pull? The, Trigger no but if you
know somebody is going to do something like that and,
you don't you, ignore it or you refuse to do anything,
about it or you support it in, any way shape,
or form you are culpable for. That ACT so i

(01:59:27):
hope we find out in the days and weeks ahead
who these, people are what they knew when they, knew
it and that they too are going to be prosecuted
to the fullest success of. The law they'll have a.
Great day i'll see Tomorrow morning burton early at. Five
am hope to see you the safter at FOUR on
am nine TO fifty kprc
