Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Nebraska's morning news ahead of a big Top
five matchup in ann Arbor, Michigan tonight. I know a
lot of the country is focused on Minnesota. We will
be two throughout the morning. We'll be touching on that,
giving you the latest up there, but not me. We've
got a basketball game tonight and I am full masked.
(00:21):
Those shirts that those dudes printed up, I've got to
get one of those. That is fantastic. We all want
to be full masked. Twenty four to seven rank masked.
I am on board. I'm such a fan of this team.
This is the hot not only the highest ranking that
Nebraska basketball has ever achieved, it's the highest ranking that
any team in Nebraska has ever achieved. And you're like, oh, yeah, Creighton.
(00:45):
Creighton has only gotten to number seven. I believe in
the polls correct, the Huskers are number five. Yeah, the highest.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Ranking ever was the Nebraska women back in twenty ten,
twenty eleven, when they were number one for quite a while.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Yes, that's true. But the thing about Nebraska's ranking and
how we're looked at on the national stage right now,
it's kind of shown in tonight's line on this game.
I don't know where it is now, and I don't
know if this is a good or a bad thing.
But Nebraska's going into this road game undefeated, one of
the best teams of the country. But no one really
(01:19):
seems to think so because we go into this game
against Michigan at ten point underdog. Is that fair? Yeah?
Is that good? I think so.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
I think it's good for Nebraska. It's good for people
who bet on basketball games, which is a little risky.
But look, Michigan has something that Nebraska's not seen all year.
They have ridiculous size. Mobile size. Size doesn't help if
you can't move. Their size can move, and they can
come out on the three point line and guard you
(01:50):
and not get hurt. So we're going to see whether
the Huskers, who love to shoot three point field goals,
can get it done. There are a lot of guys
in red that can shoot threes, the big man, but
they've never been guarded by anybody like they're going to
get guarded on the three point line. And when you
look at the size that the Michigan has upfront, that's formidable.
(02:10):
And if they can guard the three point line, you're
not going to get any baskets inside and they could
go on big runs. But that said, this Nebraska basketball
team is unlike anything I've ever seen in my lifetime.
And I've been watching Nebraska basketball closely for fifty years,
and I can tell you that this team embraces its
roles better than any team I've ever seen that we've
(02:32):
ever had here. This is as good as the good
Creighton teams in that way, and Creighton used to beat
people for those reasons. But I'm a little reluctant to
bet against Nebraska basketball this year because they're veterans, they're experienced,
they know what they're doing, and they're confident in what
they're doing. Frager is huge, because the one thing you
(02:54):
have to have, Scott, and having won a lot of
Sunday morning basketball games as you have down through the years,
you gotta have I.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Love Sunday morning basketball games. You get together with all
the old buddies.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Yeah, and you look for your the box score in
the next day's paper and it's not there, and then
you're frustrated to come back the next Sunday over at
you know, Saint Joan of ARC's Gym and win again.
But pack your knees and ice, pack your knees and
ice pop a cold one. They need a guy who
can take over the game. You win on the road
(03:26):
in basketball when one guy takes off. And to me,
the Huskers only have one player with that kind of capacity,
and that's Braden Fraker.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
He is he playing tonight?
Speaker 2 (03:37):
He went through a workout yesterday. I'm still trying to
figure out if he made the trip. I think he did,
but I'm not sure.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
I imagine he did.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
But if you go through workout and you look pretty
good in a workout, then you're probably gonna at least
make the trip. He didn't make the trip to Minnesota
and they left yesterday afternoon.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
But I know you're big on Frager and I don't.
I don't play. He's the most dynamic player they have.
I'm telling you, the way that this team has gotten
to this point in the season is you think, all right,
we're gonna collapse on mass. Well, then Mask goes out
and starts chucking threes. All right, so now we're gonna
cut off masts, all right. Well, Mask gonna throw it
to Sandford, who might have the quickest release in college basketball.
(04:12):
All right, so we got to shut him down. Well,
now you got Lawrence and Hoiberg driving to the basket,
and then you get Frager off the bench and Burke
buked in. Jel is just an absolute beast. And we're
gonna need a big game by Burke Ay tonight, and
I know he's ready to go. I just think this
team going into this big game tonight as underdogs with
(04:33):
nothing to lose. I love it. I think that they're
poised to really have a good per tonight. This is
the one they could be.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
You know, Arizona needed a three point field goal to
win last night at BYU at the end, and they
got it. But if Nebraska wins this ballgame, and if Michigan,
Michigan beat Auburn by thirty, be Gonzaga by forty. Gonzaga's
nineteen and one. But they lost to Wisconsin, to Wisconsin, Well,
the reason they lost to Wisconsin is because as Wisconsin
just started shooting threes, they started the second half hitting
(05:04):
eight in a row. That's how they did it. And
that's the only way you beat these guys. But frankly,
that's the only way you beat anybody anymore if you
don't have huge guys up front. So can Michigan defend
the three. If the answer is yes, Michigan wins. If
the Huskers get hot from three, can they win? Absolutely
they can. This team has it's again, I'm not as
close to this basketball team as I've been to previous
(05:25):
Nebraska basketball teams, including the ninety ninety one season, which
in my view is probably the best basketball team Nebraska's
ever had. But this one has a special chemistry. And
basketball is a game of chemistry. And Bob Knight used
to say that all the time you've got five guys
that are doing exactly what they're supposed to do all
(05:45):
the time, you win a lot of games.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
It's going to be fun tonight.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
And seven o'clock ETN Peacock sevenlock. Is it seven o'clock?
Speaker 2 (05:53):
I've gotten hold on at eight o'clock?
Speaker 1 (05:56):
I think No, I think it's six. I think it's
seven o'clock Eastern.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
It is six pm Central time, and it is on
the Peacock Network.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Yeah, I know I'm gonna miss part of it because
my son's gonna basketball game. Well, right, so's not not acceptable.
So here's what we're gonna happen. We're gonna refan a,
We're gonna we're gonna game tomorrow We're gonna resuscitate Lucy
Chapman because we were talking sports ball there. I love
this email sent in from Dennis. It's a timeline over
the last twenty three years. Two thousand and three, Democrats
(06:25):
fund ICE. Two thousand and four, Democrats fund ICE two
thousand and five through twenty sixteen. Democrats fund ICE. Twenty seventeen,
first year of the Trump presidency. Part one, Democrats denounce Ice.
They denounce Ice eighteen nineteen, and in twenty twenty, Democrats
(06:47):
fund ICE again. And then during the Biden years twenty
twenty one through twenty twenty three, Democrats break funding record
for ICE. Twenty twenty four, Democrats denounce Ice, twenty twenty five,
Democrats denounce Ice, and now twenty twenty six, Democrats might
be poised to want to shut down the government after
(07:09):
some of these bills come due on Friday for the
federal government. Now, the interesting thing about ICE is now,
remember they're all telling you, hey, we've got to not
fund the Department of Homeland Security because they in turn
fund Trump's gestapo, and ICE is out there kidnapping children
and murdering American citizens and all the rest. As you
(07:32):
hear all that, So they're talking about not voting for
the spending bill, which would lead to a partial government shutdown.
The first point is partial government shutdown would not be
exactly what we experienced just a couple of months ago
when the government was shut down for about forty three days.
(07:52):
But the second thing is the Big Beautiful Bill, remember
that aka the BBB, the Big Beautiful Bill that funded
ICE specifically through twenty twenty nine. What day is it,
January twenty seven, twenty twenty six, So ICE is still funded.
(08:14):
So Senator Chuck Schumer and his buddies can make a
big show out of saying, well, we don't want to
fund ICE. We got to stop Trump's gestapo. We got
to do something. There's not only nothing you can do
about the funding because they're funded for the next three years,
but also as a minority in the United States Senate
(08:34):
and Congress, there's nothing you can do about that either
other than just fill a buster and try and shut
it down. But what they say they're shutting it down
for is not going to have any impact on anything.
So there's the latest from Washington here, and we'll be
following that here throughout the week as well. Here on
(08:56):
Nebraska's morning news news radio eleven to ten KFAB yesterday,
as Craig reported, four people detained at the Douglas County Courthouse.
They're going into the car rooms. Wasn't some judge supposed
to put these illegal immigrants under her robe and escort
them out the back door. I thought that's how we
do things now in this country. Well, it didn't get
(09:17):
done yesterday. I do feel bad for this. Defense attorney says,
I got my client already. He's in the country illegally. Yeah,
I mean, aren't we all charged with hit and run
and DUI? Now, hey, no big deal, right duy hit
(09:38):
and run charges for an illegal immigrant. So the defense
attorney worked out a plea deal with his client and
was ready to proceed. When they're walking up to go
see the judge. This is when Ice comes in there
and says we'll take him. And so they get the
guy and they go out one way. The defense attorney
(10:00):
goes up to see the judge and says, your honor,
I need a postponement here. I need a continuance I
believe is your judicial term there. The judge said, why, Well,
my client was just taken into custody by federal immigration
officials downstairs, and the judge said denied, and then offered
(10:23):
up the extra bit of frosting to this cake of
I don't see your client here, so that's failure to
appear in court. The defense attorney says, he was here.
He was downstairs. We're coming up the escalator. I don't
know we're coming into the courtroom. Ice snatches him and
(10:46):
that's why he's not here. He really wanted to be here.
I promise, I don't see him, so failure to appear.
Where is he now? When do you think you'll get here?
I don't know the next place I get to see
him as in McCook, that's the Cornhusker clink. And this
was just one of these guys. There were three others,
(11:06):
so four illegal immigrants, most of them facing DUI charges,
were taken into custody in Douglas County yesterday by ice.
And that was after how many the other day. There
were other people detained at the same courthouse, Douglas County
Court just a few days ago as well last week.
(11:29):
And of course people start going nuts online, say, well,
this is the Douglas County Sheriff's office that is protecting
the courthouse. So, Sheriff Hanson, are you working with ice?
Sheriff Hanson, in a statement to WWT six News First
Alert six News, says the office of the Douglas County
Sheriff has officially no involvement in the arrests, but quote,
(11:54):
we have an obligation to be present and be in
the area because we've seen on the country where these
interactions with federal agents can become chaotic and dangerous. We
want to make sure that we're there to keep the
peace and maintain the tranquility of the courthouse and keep
everyone safe. Lucy, you're in and out of that courthouse
(12:15):
a lot for various charges. Is it tranquil?
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Supposed to be confidential?
Speaker 1 (12:20):
But you know, you do you it's fine. No one's
listening to this. I get the emails. Is it tranquil?
Speaker 5 (12:25):
There?
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Is it? The spa atmosphere. There's some nice music kind
of playing.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
On the spada. It's not every day, well.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
It spa same thing. People are wearing their robes at
the courthouse. You got the judge and his or her
robes and uh yeah, there's a little you know, Eastern
music playing and some nice lighting. The spa experience.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
I like the mist tranquil, Yeah, eucalyptus missed.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Yeah, you gotta you gotta walk through the missed tunnel
to go see the judge or one of our bosses
at iHeartRadio.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
It's there's a lot of yeah, but Scott, remember, don't
get carried away. This is one day a week, spat day. Yes,
I mean, we can't get We can't go nuts on
this stuff now, and that cost taxpayer dollars.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Right, I know, And that is their slogan there.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
Well, we can't go nuts on the stack.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
We can't go nuts on this stuff. So the defense
attorney says, well, now I got to talk to my
other clients and tell them that apparently Ice might grab
them as they go into the courthouse. Yeah, good luck
getting them to appear anywhere near the courthouse after that.
And if you're thinking, well this is something that Trump's do,
this happens, and it's been happening for years. When immigration
(13:37):
is interested in detaining someone who's in the country illegally
and has criminal charges, where are they going to find them?
So your options are either you go into a place
of business, which sometimes happens. You go into where they live,
which sometimes happens, or you just grab them at the courthouse.
You already got law enforcement there. You know where they're
(13:57):
going to be, you know what time they're going to
be there, what day. So this has happened for years,
This is nothing new. A lot of activists online not
very happy about it. I do think that it's interesting
by the judge to say, yeah, I'm gonna charge your
client with failure to appear like he was here. He
(14:18):
was downstairs. Yeah, well I'm upstairs, So sorry, Bud. And
you got the report, the report that Craig Evans and
Terry Lahey provided earlier this morning here on eleven ten KFAB.
This one involves the Venezuelan gang trend de Araragua, which
indicted here by a federal grand jury in Nebraska. The
(14:41):
indictment charges dozens more people, and we've seen these we
have seen these indictments over the last several weeks here.
So now we got dozens more people indicted by a
grand jury in Nebraska for their roles in something called
jack potting. Jackpotting apparently involves installing malware on ATMs and
(15:07):
which then allows you to start withdrawing money from the ATM.
I I don't know if it's hacking into someone's account
or just hacking into the money that's right there in
the ATM.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
It sounds to me like in reading it that it
is actually into the bank. And I think some of
the most of the charges are include bank robbery yeah,
and bank fraud.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
They so if you went in and robbed a bank,
it's the same thing. Are you robbing from the bank.
You're robbing from You're.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Not like, give me, give me all the money in
Lucy Chapman's account.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
It'd be disappointed.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Eight dollars and seventy six cents. Oh, she's got it
bad enough. Give me all the money in Jim Rose's account.
Oh the Jim Roses.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
You're gonna need a bigger bag lots of money.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
What kind of truck are you driving.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
We try to pedal truth around here, so I don't
know where that went.
Speaker 4 (15:58):
I don't know half truth there.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
So they installed oh malware on the ATM and then jackpot.
It reminds me of when I used to drive up
to the ATM with my kids and tell them I
was playing the money game to see if I win. Hey,
daddy won, and my kids were like, wow, our dad
is rich and lucky. Look at all those fives coming
at us anyway, so they withdraw unauthorized money and then
(16:23):
they can delete all the evidence. And the Department of
Justice says many of the defendants are Venezuelan and Colombia nationals,
including members of Trende Aragua. This indictment charges thirty one
more people. There were fifty six others already charged. I
don't know how many of them are in custody, if
(16:44):
any of them, but now we've got indictments for them.
So if you see them, if you see a bunch
of guys holding around atm going jackpot, then it might
be and they say jackpot, this will be good money
for our elit eagle gang trend to Aragua. Then that's
your tip to contact the authorities. Thank you so much
(17:05):
for hanging out here with us. It's a it's an
impressive cast that I get a chance to hang out
with and invite you to do the same with us.
Every morning. We got Lucy Chapman, Craig Evans, Jim Rose, Courtney, Donaho.
My name is Scott Voorhees, the least impressive name on
that list, but I'm honored to be on the list,
(17:25):
thanks a lot for hanging out here. On Nebraska's morning
news news radio eleven ten kfab All right, now, what
did she do? The state senator from Omahama, Kayla Kavanaugh,
who a couple of years ago, went on that we
love trans people. Trans people belong here rant that lasted
for about three minutes, where she repeated that loudly for
(17:46):
several minutes, and then at the start of this legislative session,
she's going around gleefully removing posters honoring America's two hundred
and fiftieth anniversary from the walls of the Capital Building.
Her hands slapped on that one. Yesterday she took advantage
(18:07):
of her time to call attention to the She puts
it atrocities of what Ice has been doing in Minneapolis.
Jim Rose, what did State Senator MICHAELA. Kavanaugh do and
not do yesterday in Lincoln.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Well, she started reading poetry about how Ice folks have
behaved badly, killing people, maiming people, wounding people, destroying families,
essentially writing bad making people write bad checks. It was
pretty embarrassing, but she's embarrassing. What she didn't do was
read a poem of sympathy for Lincoln Riley or any
(18:41):
of the other people who have been murdered, maimed, raped,
defiled by bad people that those folks up there are defending.
And this is the overarching message that is lost on
Senator Kavanaugh, which is actually not uncommon most messages are.
The overarching message is you are defending those kind of people.
(19:04):
You are biting the fingers off of ICE agents, you
are hurling rocks at ICE agents. You are breaking into
hotels in defense of people who rape and murder and
do bad things to people like your daughter, or your
sister or your mother.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
They don't see it that way. They say, we've got
armed military taken up against the citizens of this country
on the streets, and we need to get them the
blank out of our city, as the Mayor of Minneapolis
so eloquently put it, So certainly you can express some
level of sadness for the role that some people apparently
(19:45):
feel they need to play where they whatever intention is
going on there, decide that they need to get in
the way of law enforcement operations in a very dangerous
and chaotic scene, and that's what led to the loss
of life for two people Minneapolis here over the last
few weeks. So State Senator Kavanaugh is reading poetry about them,
(20:06):
and of course it has been pointed out Jim Rows
and others. I don't believe she did the same thing
to read poetry and the death of for example, Lake
and Riley or in Iowa, Molly Tibbetts. We didn't have
that going on. And this is what the two sides
do to each other. Well, you don't care about these desks, Well,
you don't care about these deaths. Most people care about
(20:29):
all of these deaths, but there is regret that they happen.
And in some instances they say, I don't know why
any of this had to happen. But the Left has.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Been remarkably consistent in its virtue signaling through all of
these social and cultural issues. Please, let's not pretend if
you lived on seventy ninth and Dorcas and you had
an illegal criminal alien walking up and down the streets,
what would you do? You would call police, You would
(21:00):
hold out a weapon, hoping that nobody entered the front
door of your home illegally. The idea that you really
truly care about these people is utterly preposterous. That is nonsense.
They don't care about these people, These are virtue signalers.
They stand up for people who don't deserve to be
stood up for. In many cases, they defend these people
(21:22):
and they don't even know who they are, what they've done.
This is how they get through the day, and it's
politically expeditious for them. It is very helpful in raising money,
and it is very helpful in getting people to vote
for your side.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Well, this is where again you get to both sides.
You know you. One side says every single illegal immigrant
in this country probably brought here by their children. They
got an open request for asylum. They're good people, they're working,
owning businesses, their kids are in school here. They don't
know any other country. The other side seems to say,
every single legal immigrant here is a cannibal, murderist, awful
(21:57):
person who's dealing drugs to your third grader. Obviously, the
truth always lies in the middle. The problem is is
that the people who see it the first way don't
want ice to go out there and figure out who
we're dealing with, especially since a lot of these cases
are open warrants the criminal investigations. As Jim there pointed out,
a lot of people on the left in this country
(22:19):
thinking yes, we got a couple of them. And this
is members of the Trump administration who they don't know.
The term demotion has been used to describe the Border
Patrol Commander Greg Bovino, as Craig just reported there, who
had been overseeing the ICE operations in and around Minneapolis.
(22:40):
He is going back to Washington, but Tom Holman's coming in.
I don't know if the people on the political left
in this country are going to see that as a
good trade. Tom Holman is He's not there just to
hug everyone and make everyone feel good. That's not his gear.
(23:01):
So not sure what that's looking like. They also talked
about a draw down. There'll be fewer ICE agents in Minneapolis,
some of them going home today. And Christy Nome has
seemingly been sidelined a little bit the Secretary of Department
of Homeland Security because Homan is reporting directly to President Trump,
(23:23):
or at least that's what some of these media outlets
say track record. There is a lot of times media
outlets try and get Trump on one side or the
other of various members of his cabinet or administration in
hopes of sowing the seeds of discontent and try and
get people fired because they love that kind of thing.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
Well, the border patrol people shouldn't have been up there.
They were set up there as reinforcements for ice and
who else was wearing the USA's colors. That's not their gig.
Their job is to walk a fence line and keep
somebody from coming over.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Well, there's a pretty tenure was border between Minneapolis and
Saint Paul and who's gonna who's gonna watch it? But
it's only been bridged once and that was the two
guys on the Twins logo, you know, reaching across and
one guy's Minneapolo. Is that that's what they really Yeah,
they call it the Twins Twins.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
And then you get the two guys and you have
shaken hands from island before the ball game. Yeah, so
they were up there. They really shouldn't have been up there.
So this is actually a net positive because the President
and DHS probably didn't want them up there, but they
needed them up there because everything's fine on the border now.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
They needed them up.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
There just sort of watch around, look around, watch make
sure nobody was stepping out of line, and of course
they did. I don't know if the two guys who
had their fingers bitten off by protesters. Were a border
patrol agents to just ice guys.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Yeah, I don't know. I know one guy got part
of his thumb. You look down there, you're fighting with
protesters at a chaotic scene, like what the heck is that?
And you look down and there's just a protester angrily
gnawing away at your thumb.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Hung going on. These protesters don't work, so they're hungry.
They can't afford food.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Now, President Trump and Governor Tim Walls, Mayor Jacob Pry
Minneapolis all said they got on the phone yesterday and
they all said it was a good conversation. How how
after all the stuff that's been going on, how do
they have a good conversation. One interesting thing that came
out of it is Governor Walls seemed to be telling
President Trump, like, you're out there telling the names of
(25:24):
you took this bad guy into custody and that bad guy.
You know, these are guys who are already in our jails,
like our local law enforcement got them, and we cooperate
with ICE in handing them over to the Department of
Homeland Securities so they could be dealt with. On that one,
you haven't gone up here, and your guys haven't plucked
them out of our neighborhoods. You got them out of
(25:44):
our jails because we've been cooperating with you. Did you
know that? President Trump is like, yeah, I don't know
about that. That's good information, That's what Tim Wall said.
He said, he said, well, that's helpful, and he said,
we're going to continue to help you with that. Cal
him down. It's all okay. So that it seems to
be where they've left some of this, and President Trump
is like, all right, we'll move some of the people
(26:05):
out of Minneapolis, which, of course the protesters up there
see is a big, big win for them.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
But why, you're smart, guy, Scott, Do you have any
agree from the University of Nebraska Carney?
Speaker 1 (26:15):
That's right?
Speaker 2 (26:16):
Why is it that we don't have big protests in
all these other Democrat cities. Are we doing the same
thing there? Yeah, well, the Emphis, New Orleans, Los Angeles,
they did in Chicago, they had big protests. People are
shooting at Ice Agent now, But Minneapolis is the one
that's been getting the headlines here recently. Yesterday, at about
this time, Jim Rose was calling for the ouster of
Department of Homeland Security chief Christie Nome. The New York
(26:40):
Times reports that she met with President Trump summoned to
the Oval office last night, where they met for two hours.
He got a spanking. You got a verbal spanking from
the President.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
I wasn't in there. I don't know if you knew that.
I don't know, and either do you. According to the report,
her job appear safe even though a lot of protesters, Democrats,
a couple of Republicans got a little nervy, and Jim Rows.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Says she needs to go, she needs to go. She's
still there. Well, look, she's been very loyal to the president.
She was one of his really great advocates and has
been for ten years. He's a very loyal guy. But
he's probably thinking, let's find a place for you to go.
We can stretch this out, but you can't continue to
(27:27):
do this gig because it's affecting our political agenda. When
you have the United States Senate, including Republican senators that
are not happy with your performance because of some of
the things you've said publicly and some of the things
you've done publicly, when it starts to affect my ability
to get the agenda done, then people must go. Heads
must roll.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
So anyone who thinks like you, Christy Noome needs to
be fired, or she needs to resign in disgrace or whatever.
In President Trunk, she needs to resign and disgrace. Who
is President Trump going to a point in that position?
Who's going to make the people who hate Christy Nome
any had time?
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Tom Holman make Tom Holman, the Secretary of Homeland Security
hate Tom Holman io of course, but he has a
medal around his neck given by Barack Obama. So if
you're a Democrat, how do you hate this guy? If
you love Barack Obama? He served five presidents, This guy
knows his way around.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
If he's with Trump, they hate him.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
Well, perhaps I can't argue that that's true. But there
are plenty of guys out there and women out there
who can run this department and not say things like
this guy came to this event with an intent to
massacre people. That's not what happened. Maybe it did, but
not until after the investigation. But you can't say that
(28:42):
twenty minutes after the shooting. You can't say the same
thing about Renee Good. She has trouble with the microphone.
She has trouble, and this is something you people in
South Dakota have known for a long time. There's a
lot about Christineome that's good for Christy Nomes. She is
a publicity seeker, she is a camera seeker, and that's
(29:05):
not what we need in these tense moments. Look, she's
a perfectly capable person. She'll probably do better financially somewhere else.
But we can't have this Scott, not under these conditions.
Ice is up against enough of a pr problem thanks
to the Democratic Party in this country, they don't need
friendly fire.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
We got an email yesterday from our friend Richard, who
hates the President of the United States, and I'll sum
this up here quickly. He was saying, this is an
email he saw online from a former marine. There's no
such thing as a former marine, and says that this guy,
Alex Pretty, the guy who was shot over the weekend,
(29:45):
stood between a woman and a federal agent who had
just thrown her into the snow, hands up, legally licensed weapon,
holstered no threat. He took pepper spray to the face.
Because protecting someone smaller than you used to mean something
in this country. That's manhood.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
Well, that's not true. Either, when you impede a federal investigation,
a federal law enforcement action, you are no longer eligible
to hold a handgun. So when that happened, at that moment,
he lost his license to have that gun.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Yeah, I said, that's the law. I said, I hope
you'll consider how you'd react if someone purposefully tracks you
down at work with a gun. Plenty of AMMO obstructed
you in the middle of a very dangerous job, forcefully
resisted as you and a few of your coworkers tried
to get him out of the building. In that chaos,
a gun goes off, you have a split second to react,
(30:37):
or you and your coworkers might not see their families
that night. This guy has already presented himself as a
threat by stalking you, trespassing and harassing you while you're
working a dangerous job. What would you do in that instance?
And would you do it while wearing a mask so
other potential threats don't come after you and your family
at home? And Richard's response was Trump's a pedophile. So
(30:58):
that's the level of disc of course, Richard, I appreciate
the discussion. Thank you very much for the email. How
did that phone call go between the president and the
governor in Minnesota. We'll hear about that from Fox News
Radios Jeff Minasso. Next, Zonker's custom Woods inbox. First email
here from Gina says, Twin Peaks is going off one
hundred and eightieth and Dodge. I don't know if Gina
(31:20):
works there. You know a lot of women eat there.
A lot of women eat. They're the Hooters and the
Twin Peaks. Not my woman, but a lot of women
do either. They have good food. It's quite an experience.
And then, and by the way, Gina, thank you very
much for the email. She says she listens and laughs
every day. I don't know if she's laughing with or
(31:43):
at I'm just glad that she's laughing. And then Michael says,
why does Christy Nome need to go? How come Democrats
never fire anyone? Why did none of Biden's appointees ever resign.
That's well, different standards, I guess Jim Rose has said
Christy Nome needs to go.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Well, you can't have your director of Homeland Security behaving
this way intense conditions. She needed to be measured, she
needed to say, we understand a tragedy has occurred. That
someone has been killed. We send our deepest sympathies in
prayers to the family and we will begin an investigation
(32:24):
immediately and when we have facts, I'll share them.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
Well that's it. We have some sort of renewed appreciation here.
Well renewed it implies that there was ever appreciation between
the President and Minnesota's governor. We've got Jeff Manasso from
Fox News Radio rejoining us here on news Radio eleven
to ten KFAB. They had some good phone calls yesterday.
It sounds like, well, the.
Speaker 5 (32:46):
Time might be turning in Minnesota. Maybe a President Trump
counting the productive calls after speaking to Minnesota Governor Tom
Walls and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frye to tamp down the
violence and the chaos and the Twin cities. Tom Holman
also set to meet with Mayor fry today is he
takes lead on those operations, and so it's looking that
(33:07):
locals in the state might may cooperate and finally giving
nice access to the illegal immigrants who committed crimes, crimes
so bad that they're in jail look and set for deportation,
something the mayor the governor have fought previously. Remember back
in December, Ice identified about four hundred and seventy criminal
(33:29):
illegals that Fry and Walls released back in the community.
There are over one thy three hundred and sixty more
criminal illegals in jails, but local.
Speaker 3 (33:38):
And state leaders have not cooperated. So we'll see if
they cooperate. Now. Ice has always said, give us access
to the worst of the worst, or we'll be forced
to go into neighborhoods and track them down. And if
we do that, we're going to take everybody who's in
this country illegally with us. And so this may be
an exchange for a reduction of federal agents. We're told
based on the responses from the governor of the mayor
(34:00):
uh and as Border Patrol Chief Greg Bovino, who's been
leading the Minnesota mission, we're told he's returned to California
at the border operation there, and and so this, you know,
the signals increased federal involvement as officials work with work
to stabilize the situation and perhaps restore order.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
It looks like a capitulation by the president, but the
President has always said he wants to get the dangerous
people in the country illegally out of the country. And
part of this agreement reach says that Mayor Fry, Governor
Wallas work with the remaining agents in Minneapolis to get
the people in the country illegally into federal custody. So
(34:43):
on that front, it does sound like President Trump and
Tom Holman are getting what they want. Right.
Speaker 3 (34:49):
Well, we'll see time with hell, you know, we don't
know yet. You're if you're if you're if you're on
X or social media and you're in you're you're seeing
you know, the you know, mag world not too happy
about it. They they they feel that this should be
a situation where Trump just goes in and and and
and does whatever he needs to do to to to
(35:12):
to tamp down this, you know, to to call the
violence in the in these these agitators, and and to
take the mayor and the governor to task. But at
the same time, you know, it's it's it's gotten pretty violent.
You know, you've got too deadly shootings. By the way,
DHS says it's going to be monitoring the h This
is probably one of the requests of the mayor and
(35:33):
the governor monitoring bodycam video footage from from the officers
involved in Alex Petty's shooting. But but you know that
as agitators also continue their campaign of violence and targeting
hotels and making as much noise as they can and
uh so much so even local police prompted an unlawful
assembly on Monday. It began making to rest. So these
(35:57):
are hardy folks there. It's sub zero temperatures in there.
They're out there by the hundreds and even perhaps thousands,
and they continue to do what they're doing. Yeah, and
perhaps you know, cooler heads will prevail, and perhaps it's
a moment where you know, Trump needs to come in
and say, hey, look, let's work together. That's what we've
been asking asking you to do. And maybe now maybe
(36:18):
now you're willing to do it.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
Who will see, Yeah, we'll see if that local cooperation
in Minneapolis means that you have fewer protesters out there.
I think they're getting the impression all the ICE agents
are leaving. They're going to be disappointed when that's not
the case. Jeff, great reporting, as always, Thank you very
much for the time you bet. Lucy. There's a new
phrase in dating. It's called hot take dating. Hot take
(36:41):
hot take dating.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
I got a feeling we've always used that, but what
is it.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Hot take? Dating is right off the bat you meet someone,
whether it's a private message and an app or just
saying hi to them in a bar or sitting next
to him in church. I don't know. Wherever you meet people,
you come at them with a hot take. You're like,
hi there, my name is Sean. I tell you what
I'm all about. I'm all about getting Trump's Gestapo out
(37:08):
of the streets of Minneapolis, getting out of our country.
I want them all out there and tried as war criminals.
That's what I'm all about. And if you got a
problem with that, then maybe you're not from me. And
then seeing how the person responds.
Speaker 4 (37:20):
Is it always political?
Speaker 1 (37:22):
It's pretty much always political survey here, according to Tender
oh Well, which a lot of marriages have been impacted
by Tender, mostly ruined because your husband was on Tender
trying to find a date for the evening. Who wasn't you.
(37:42):
Tender is not generally known as a site where people
meet and form long term relationships. But I'm only saying
that because that's what my friend Andy tells me.
Speaker 4 (37:54):
I thought it was for friends. I thought it where
you just meet friends.
Speaker 1 (37:58):
Yeah, that's they're friends moments at a time. They say
that shared values are essential for dating. Well, yeah, but
it's about the shared values when it comes to things
like racial justice, LGBTQ plus rights, and then later down
(38:19):
the list of stuff like how you treat your mom
and this person have a sense of humor? Are they attractive?
Do they have any money? I don't know whatever some
of that stuff. But right off the bat, we're just
laying out the politics right now. Whould you vote for?
Speaker 4 (38:32):
The only thing different about that than anything we did
in our dating lives back in the day. The only
thing different is it you might not get it all
at the very first day, but you get all that
pretty quickly within a date or two.
Speaker 1 (38:48):
The first time you guys had meaningful relationships. I'm not
talking about like in sixth grade, I kissed a girl.
You know whatever checks meaningful relationships? You were like at
at voting age, your high school, senior year in college
and now here you have a relationship. At what point
(39:10):
did you have any idea who they voted for, where
they stood on politics. I'm thinking about my girlfriend, like
freshman year of college, I don't have any idea who
she voted.
Speaker 2 (39:20):
Never came up first two, three, four. Serious relations never
came up. I mean seriously, we never discussed politics.
Speaker 1 (39:30):
Right now, this this this hot little number I'm with.
Now she's a crazy left Oh my god, well she's.
Speaker 4 (39:39):
She puts up with so much.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
Communist it's getting well, that's how she started the way.
So I discussed it one night and I'm going, how
are you here?
Speaker 1 (39:48):
I know it's getting pretty serious. Next week we will
have been together for twenty five years.
Speaker 4 (39:55):
Congratulations.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
Yes that's not Mary, that's you know, since we met.
So this is the anniversary this weekend of when we met.
So I'm taking her out to Sizzler and oh, we're
gonna have to travel.
Speaker 2 (40:08):
But that's an upgrade from the drive through of McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
That's what she said. And I said, all right, fine,
we'll pony up the cash. We're going to Golden Corral.
You know, we're fine a place. But when we met,
I'm on the radio as a conservative talk radio host.
She just got so the year is I don't get
this wrong, two thousand and one, and she had just
(40:33):
got done in Lawrence, Kansas, working on Ralph Nader's campaign,
where he was trying to be elected president as the
leader of the Green Party, and she loved Hillary Clinton,
thought that she was just the best thing that ever been.
Her views on Hillary have changed dramatically, but I had
nothing to do with it. At no point was I like, hey,
(40:55):
you don't. We're gonna sit here, We're gonna talk about
some issues. How do you feel about the border, how
do you feel about Funny the millk Terry? What do
you think about property to We didn't have any of
those conversations. We went on and got ice cream, We
sang karaoke, we held hands, and then and then a
couple days later we got married. You know, That's that's
how we started. So I don't care what I always
say this, I don't care for whom you vote. I
(41:18):
care how you treat people who vote differently than you.
And I think that the dynamic of people of two
different political backgrounds used to be kind of fun and
quaint as long as you didn't take it personally and
fight about stuff. But in today's climate, I don't know
if anyone's capable of that. So they're right off the bat,
who'd you vote for? L Are you one of them
Trump supporters? Well, me too, so let's make out. You know, hey,
(41:39):
if that works for you. Have at it hot take dating.
In an hour and seven minutes from now, we'll be
talking about menopause. Everyone calmed down. Melanie Sanders is the
author of the official We Do Not Care Club Handbook,
and she says, for women going through menopause, we don't
(42:01):
care about this. We don't care about that. Now I
am a man, you're forty. Seeing no argument, I'll move on.
How are we men supposed to deal when our women
are going through menopause? Find out At nine to twenty
this morning. Greg emails Scott at kfab dot com and says,
(42:21):
I see it on dating apps all the time. No Trumpers.
You never see Trumpers only. Though I wonder if that
would be a fun dating app like Farmers Only. Isn't
that a thing? I don't know about the dating apps,
I will admit, though, I have been on one dating
(42:45):
app controversially. Controversially. It was just a few years ago
and I was married.
Speaker 4 (42:53):
Oh I know which one it was.
Speaker 1 (42:56):
I don't remember which one it was. Which one was it?
Speaker 4 (43:02):
I thought it was when you were talking to the
uh yeah, the guest on that enjoyed being a record
of marriage.
Speaker 1 (43:10):
Or the adult Actually, oh yeah, that was well, we
we used to have Sarah Simons, so that didn't go
very well. Official Mistress of news Radio Elena No.
Speaker 2 (43:23):
That was not met with approval by the audience.
Speaker 1 (43:25):
By the way, Now, we were sitting down there, I
think I was talking with my buddies and they were
the single guys and talking about the dating apps, and
I said, I'm gonna try it, and so I set
up a profile as a woman named news Radio eleven
ten KFAB, and I just started trying to you know,
so called hook up with all. This is a lie,
(43:47):
this is one hundred percent true. I tried to hook
up with all the guys in the area. I guess,
like you can say, like any who are the other
guys on this app within two miles where I'm sitting
at a downtown and I had a drink in me
and so I'm now talking to these guys. And it
turns out kfab did very well. Even though we are
(44:08):
a radio station and not even trying to come across
as a woman, A lot of guys are very willing
to meet and show me what they were working with.
That's when I deleted the app. Yes, yes, that's one
hundred percent true. The idea was, Hey, we're trying to
get some listeners in, you know, any way necessary because
we're not going to do it with talent, so we'll
(44:30):
do it with trickery. Lucy Chapman, the choice is yours.
Here are the three stories that you get to choose
between to see what you would like to hear first.
Your options are kids quote going hungry unquote in Sarpee
County schools, or a guy who is at the forefront
(44:53):
of AI saying AI is going to kill us all
or the latest Florida Man story hungry kids AI, Florida Man.
Speaker 4 (45:05):
Well, the AI thing, we already knew that, so that's
not news.
Speaker 1 (45:11):
Right now, there's someone going, wait, did he say we're
all gonna die? And Lucy's like a path.
Speaker 2 (45:16):
Yeah, I want that.
Speaker 4 (45:17):
Well yeah, I mean wait, if it doesn't kill us physically,
actually it's going to kill us emotionally and financially. I'm
to go Florida Man.
Speaker 1 (45:29):
Wow, All right, Florida man drivers on the central Now
we know the Florida Man phenomenon. Right, that works. But
you type in any date Florida Man, and then any
date in history and the Internet will spit back at you.
In fact, there are full websites devoted to this phenomenon.
The Internet will spit back at you either on that
(45:51):
data really really close to it. Something that a guy
in Florida did that made one of those in other
news type stories.
Speaker 4 (46:01):
There's a whole channel for it on Netflix or or who.
Speaker 1 (46:06):
No, there's no shortage of a guy in Florida doing
something really really weird. Here's yesterday's drivers in a central
Florida highway got an interesting show. Car was driving down
US one ninety two Reverend County. No big deal. This
car was on fire and a guy was driving it.
(46:29):
Police pulled over the flaming vehicle and arrested the driver
on suspicion of DUI.
Speaker 4 (46:37):
Was he playing Bruce Springsteen in the background?
Speaker 1 (46:39):
The man is hot in here? What Bruce song? Are
we when I'm on fire? Is that what we're doing? Yeah?
I didn't figure you were doing tougher than the rest.
There's a deep cut for you, though. He would be
he's dry and my wife would still be cold. Can't
we turn the seatwarmer on higher? Honey? The cars on fire? Eh?
Speaker 2 (47:02):
Heah, and.
Speaker 1 (47:06):
Turns out. So police pull over the car, which again
is a flame. Driver is drunk police pull over, and
that's when they realize his wife is in the passenger seat.
And if you're thinking she's fine, probably not real thrilled.
He was able to escape and was barely able to
get his wife out of the flames. He smelled of
(47:29):
alcohol and was slurring his words. He says, I only
had one beer, and that might be true, but there
was an empty bottle of liquor found on the floorboard,
which the sheriff Brafford County says, quote, in our line
of work, that's called a clue. So he started driving
(47:50):
under the influence, refusing to submit to DUI testing, and
at that point that's just unnecessary.
Speaker 4 (47:56):
Did he pull over right away?
Speaker 3 (48:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
It doesn't say let's see here.
Speaker 4 (48:03):
Oh you're trying to pull me over?
Speaker 1 (48:05):
Yeah, he apparently. Well, he tried to stop his vehicle
and then got back in and drove off again, and
as it was on fire. Now, after driving a little
bit further, he stops again and now flames are seriously
taking over the vehicle, and that's when he got back
in the car and kept driving, and that's when police.
(48:29):
By the time they reached the scene, they had fire
and rescue there to help put out the car. So
I don't know when exactly he stopped, and maybe police
weren't trying to actively pull him over. I might have
made that part up, but the rest of that story
is true, and we know that because Florida man.
Speaker 4 (48:47):
Can I change my answer?
Speaker 1 (48:48):
What would you like to hear about? Next?
Speaker 4 (48:50):
I decided I do want to hear about AI.
Speaker 1 (48:53):
Oh, you're essentially right. There is the guy in charge
of anthrow pick AI. He says, let's see here, we're
gonna have civilian level damage or civil pardon me, civilization
level damage.
Speaker 4 (49:07):
Well we've got that now.
Speaker 1 (49:09):
Yes, he's just watching the news and uh, yeah, we
don't have AI in Minneapolis. We don't have I in Minneapolis.
But well he's he's one of the CEO of a
company that has advanced AI center. They've got Claude. That's
there's Claude Opus four point five is their AI. Never
(49:31):
heard of it? Maybe he just wants to get in
the news. Yeah, I know you think rock and Chat GPT,
you're scary. Way do you see ours? People like, Oh
that sounds dangerous. I'll have some of that, he says.
If we don't put up safeguards. Now that civilization level
damage safeguards, yeah, or you can just you know, turn
your phone off whatever. Sarpy County, twenty five percent of
(49:56):
students face food insecurity. And so there's a group of people.
Now I'm gonna tell you the story, which is really
nice and I'm glad they're doing it, and then I'm
gonna tell you the problem I have with the story itself. Now,
it's not their fault. They're looking at the reality where
they say, we've got a school lunch debt at the
nearly fifty or so schools in Sarpy County. That's Papillion, Bellevue, Gretna,
(50:23):
and collectively there is a one hundred and seventy five
thousand school lunch debt going on in Sarpy County. So
we want to try and pay off the debt. This
organization called Lift Up Sarpie County says we're doing a
fundraiser at Smash Park in La Vistas where you go
in there and take a bat to computer monitors. You
(50:44):
can either do that Smash Park or anytime you want
to stop by the radio station, I'll point you over
to Cat one O three studios. We have plenty here.
Steven Gino will let you just take a whack at
the audio board. Fact we in buy Chainsaws February seventh
at Smash Park. Look on the website Lift Up Sarpy County.
They're gonna try and raise some money and try and
pay off some of the school lunch debt. But the
(51:06):
thing that they're saying is, well, if we don't pay
this off, kids are going hungry. That's not true. They
still have the kids eat. It's just not in some
cases that hot lunch. You know, you're not gonna get
that salisberry steak serve with a little slice of love.
You might get a ham sandwich. Of course, I'm sure
that these kids, no matter how much their families qualify
(51:27):
for free or reduce lunch, even those kids are like,
I don't want a balooney sandwich, So I don't if they.
Speaker 4 (51:35):
Don't eat all of a sudden, that sounds so good.
Speaker 1 (51:37):
I love a baloney. I'm full of baloney. I don't
know if that's evident. So they if they're going hungry,
that's their fault. You got it. You can still eat,
They'll still feed you. But I wonder how much of
this is tied into it used to be all these
school lunches for free. And then they said, all right,
we're gonna try and make the school lunches a little better,
(51:57):
but we are going to ask families who can pay
for it to pay for it. But you can also
go through the process of receiving free or reduced lunch.
And a lot of twenty five percent of students face
some food insecurity, which would suggest that I don't know
why those families. I wonder if it's just that the
parents don't know that they have to pay. The kid
(52:19):
probably is told every day, hey, you got to tell
your mom we need money. I will, And then they
don't and everyone forgets about it.
Speaker 4 (52:25):
And no one's paying for it.
Speaker 1 (52:26):
Well, the schools right now eating the costs, which is
tax dollars.
Speaker 4 (52:31):
I see.
Speaker 1 (52:32):
Yeah, now, Lucy sees. There you go. You got all
three stories teed up there in that segment. In Lucy's
order of preference. We are in the extreme cold warning
over the better part of the last four or five days. Here. Meanwhile,
if you turn on your TV to watch the Australian Open, Lucy,
(52:52):
what sport is that.
Speaker 4 (52:55):
Wolfleball?
Speaker 1 (52:56):
That's pretty mean.
Speaker 5 (52:58):
She doesn't know.
Speaker 1 (52:58):
She takes pride in knowing and uh wait, what was
the question? Australian Australian. So there she got one. That's good,
she got here the.
Speaker 4 (53:09):
First one I just get, you know. And wolfle ball
wasn't that far off.
Speaker 1 (53:13):
Woffle and wiffle woffle ball, waffle. It was an Australian
version of tennis. So it's like, it's like pickleball in Australia.
Pretty cool. Yeah, as far as far as you know.
So Lucy, now I'm backing you up. I mock you,
then I support you. It's a it's an abusive relationship.
But if you turn on the TV and you watch
(53:34):
a little Australian open dropping like flies, they are sweltering
down there. They hit one hundred and twenty degrees fahrenheit.
Speaker 2 (53:42):
On the floor. Yeah it's an asphalt, it's a hard court.
Speaker 1 (53:45):
Yeah, one hundred and twenty. And that wasn't even the
feels like temperature on the court. That's just the temperature.
And so that's uh, it's always nice in the winter.
You can turn on the TV and watch them play
golf and Hawaii or Cali feign you, or you can
turn on the TV and watch them play tennis. In
one hundred plus degree.
Speaker 4 (54:06):
Heat sounds better than Celsius though in Australia.
Speaker 1 (54:09):
I just I don't know why forty eight point nine
Celsius Lousey. I did the math. That's how smart I am. Also,
it's in the story why.
Speaker 2 (54:15):
It's taken them so long to build an air conditioned
indoor facility for the Australian Open, or you know, change
out the surface from hard court to softer courts.
Speaker 1 (54:25):
You know, grass is Wimbledon.
Speaker 2 (54:27):
The clay is at the French Open, and then you
have the hard surface of the US Open. But it
really is hard on the fans, hard on the Do
you see the ballgirl fanted the other day? No, Yeah,
they have video of the ballgirl there, you know, on
the court at the Australian Open where it's ten thousand
degrees and she just keeled over.
Speaker 1 (54:44):
Man.
Speaker 2 (54:44):
One of the players came over and attended to him.
Speaker 1 (54:47):
Yeah. Between that and there's one of the tennis players
who is, you know, talking while the other player was serving,
and which is just certainly classless and questionable whether it's
in the rubles and so they those two players kind
of got and do it. This is on the women's
side of the draw. So it's entertaining stuff down there.
My wife is a tennis fan, so I get sucked
(55:07):
into some matches once in a while.
