Riepe Rises Again / Ernst Makes 'em Squeal / Gary Stops By

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good morning. This is Nebraska's morning news news radio eleven
ten KFAB. Let's start there, Jim, give me all of
your thoughts on State Senator merv repe. Hey, we're buds
of Ralston. You've done previous Rosie to Genozi commentaries about him,
and I'll tell you why he's in the news because

(00:21):
last year he kind of the John McCain of the
Nebraska unicamer This is a conservative maverick type state senator
and with a razor thin majority when it comes to
actually getting stuff done in the legislature. They had said,
all right, we think that perhaps you should stop doing

(00:43):
various gender reassignment surgeries on children. Also, we want boys
and boys bathrooms, locker rooms, and schools and girls and girls.
And Reape said, I'm okay with the first one, but
I don't want the potty patrol across the state of Nebraska.
How are we going to do this? Well, then he
rethought things and suggested that maybe he might think differently

(01:05):
in this new session. Yesterday he announced, I have thought
about it, and I am not interested in trying to
police bathroom facilities, whether it's in the hospitals, schools, in
the state capitol building, now anyone can go in anyone's
bathroom is in a locker room. So where do we

(01:26):
want to go today? And give me all your thoughts
on Murphrey.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
Well, I'm disappointed in that position, but I have respect
for murph Merv's a veteran guy, is a serious guy.
He is a former military and has been a very
respected and accomplished hospital administrator most of his life. But
sometimes I think he seeks some attention. He's the oldest
member of the Nebraska unicamer by age, and I think

(01:51):
sometimes he seeks a little bit of attention by swimming upstream.
I think he's a Republican. I don't know that he's
a conservative. I believe he's a Republican. He's a registered Republican,
but I don't know how conservative he is. And I'm
a conservative, Okay, from my little slice of the world,
I see things as a conservative. I don't think he's
really conservative in this case. I think he's just wrong

(02:14):
because in his mind, we have to stop policing people's behavior.
We have to just let people live and let live.
And I think to a degree that's true. But when
it comes to boys in girls' locker rooms, when it
comes to the privacy of a locker room or a
shower in a public place, especially for young people. I

(02:36):
think we have an obligation to look out for him.
And let's just be honest about it. A guy who
goes into a girl's locker room is doing it because
he's sexual, all right, and predominantly because he's sexual. He's
not doing it because he thinks he's a girl, especially
in middle school. Because I can imagine a Scott Vorhees
at age thirteen thinking I'm going to walk in there

(02:58):
and I'm going to see how long i can stay
in there, just to show my buddies that I'm willing
to take a dare.

Speaker 1 (03:04):
I would like to think that I then and now
had too much respect for women. Now I would have
said I was going to do it and then not
done it. I would not have acted. We just can't
have We just can't have girls put in this place.
I'm continually astounded by people like merv who ignore the

(03:24):
importance of protecting young ladies. Well, let me tell you
what he said. He this talking with k E TV
News Watch seven. Said, my granddaughter, who's a senior in
high school, said, Papa calls it. Papa Grandpapa nice. Uh,
We're not worried about trans or lgbt qs or any
others in our school. What we worry about in school
are guns. That's his quote to k E TV.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
It's because there are boys going into the locker rooms
in Nebraska these days.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
I I will tell you I don't think that's one.
And let me give an example. Friend of mine daughter,
you know, was in all the various choir, show choirs, drama,
theater and all that fun stuff. And certainly you've got
some kids in high school who do those kind of things,
who are on that gender fluidity line. And there was

(04:12):
one particular student who, certainly in school, this kid was
picked on. This was a male who was felt that
he was female femine. Picked on in school. Yeah, picked
on in school and no identified as a female. But
in drama, acquired and all that stuff, this person found
a safe space and they were very happy to provide it,

(04:33):
which is fantastic. Then it came time to do an
out of town event and the question came up, who's
going to room with this person? And suddenly the teachers
and everyone was like, well, yeah, this girl is going
to room with the girls. And suddenly these girls who
are like, look, no, no, we rally around this person.
We want them to not make fun of it. All that,

(04:53):
but I'm not going to sleep in the same room
with it. And it became an issue suddenly. You know,
all these people say, we're not worried about now. If
you're not gonna stay overnight in the hotel room, why
would you want to be in a bathroom, a locker room? Sure,
and the rest of this stuff. So I think that
there's more going on here than perhaps Senator Repee wants

(05:14):
to admit. And some of these students want to admit
out loud, because when they talk privately afterwards different, It's
a different conversation. Now we'll have a different conversation throughout
the morning. I agree with you, unless you want Jim
Rose to talk about sexual teenagers the rest of the morning,
in which case we're good. We can do that, stay
out of it, do anything we want. We're going to

(05:35):
do traffic weather in a news update though. Next okay,
Jim Rostrow Flarty services. See this is what you come
to kV before. This is why it continues to annex
larger chunks of the radio audience every day. Tom says,
CBS News said, this guy, Alex Pretty Minneapolis, had the
altercation with Ice about a week and a half earlier
and was injured. But see they left out the part

(05:58):
about him spitting on agents and destroying one of not destroying,
but damaging one of their vehicles, kicking the tail light out. Yes,
I'm not surprised. As I mentioned a moment ago, I'm
a little tired of the media reports. And this guy
saying Alex Pretty and I see you, nurse. He gives

(06:18):
the impression that he's there working in the intensive care
unit at the Veterans Administration Hospital. He's he's helping out
these veterans who are saying, oh, nurse Alex, thank god
you're here. Yep, I'm gonna save your life. Wait, who
are these guys? And then Ice come in. They've got
like five year old kids under each arm, but they
still got enough to be able to, you know, pull

(06:40):
a trigger and kill this guy as he's saving veterans' lives.
That's the narrative the media wants you to have. And
here's the email of the day from Tom on Bill
Belichick maybe having to wait another year to get in
the Hall of Fame. Jim Tom emails and says Belichick

(07:00):
waited forty nine years for his girlfriend to be born.
He can wait one more year for the Hall of Fame. Eh.
I totally get it.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
And if other writers and media people have the same
approach that Vaji Gregorian did, it makes perfect sense. And
this outrage from across football that Bill Belichick isn't on
the first ballot is a little bit overdone, overcooked. He's
gonna get in, But in this case, there were reasons
why Gregorian didn't vote for him this time. It was

(07:33):
his first appearance on the ballot. Conversely, this is it
for Roger Craig. And I know a lot of people
don't know Roger Craig if you're under the age of forty,
because you didn't really watch him play. He's been retired
for quite a while. This guy was the most dynamic
player in the NFC for most of ten years now.
He was on a team loaded with Super Bowl champions

(07:54):
and record setters. When you're talking about guys like Jerry
Rice and Joe Montana, so you tend to get overshadowed
a little.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
Yeah, how many players before Roger Craig had one thousand
yards rushing and receiving in the same season zero.

Speaker 2 (08:07):
It was the first one, and I would invite you
to go look at video. Sometimes we are prisoners of
the present. We don't really have an understanding and we
can't function in a relative history comparison. But I would
encourage you to go to YouTube and just YouTube Roger
Craig and watch that guy, and tell me who in
the NFL is like that? Now, ain't nobody you had

(08:28):
the high stepping.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
All the kids I was growing out of a watch
him and we were all high stepping. Keep those legs going.
That's what coaches yells. Keep those legs, keep those knees high.
I loved Roger Craig from the beginning.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
First time I saw him play as a freshman, I thought,
this guy is so dynamic. But then what really sold
me on him was in nineteen eighty two when he
voluntarily went from my back to fullback so that he
and Rosier could be in the same backfield. And he
did that knowing he was going to get a fraction
of the number of carries that out of that position.
He wasn't going to be able to run in the

(09:01):
open field very much and demonstrate his really great skills
but he did it, and he kept that smile on
his face, and that was probably I think his greatest
attribute as a person. You just had this incredibly wide
and inviting and warm smile. And there's something else that's really, really,
really really glad he was a oscar.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
There's something else that's lost so much in today's sports
is the ability for players to put their ego to
the side and do us best for the team. Marcus
Allen did the same thing at college for Charles White
and in the pro from Poe Jackson, like, Hey, it's
okay if we use you to block. Yeah, is that
what you need me to do? Coach? Let's go whatever,
where's the brick wall, I'll run through it. Right. That's
I think embodied by this Nebraska basketball team. I think

(09:43):
you've got eight nine core guys that play who do
that exact same thing. There are probably some of these
guys that go out and score twenty points every single night,
but that's not what they're always called upon to do.
This is fun to watch this year. All right, Well,
I'll come back with sports brief in just a moment.
Also after traffic, weather and a news update. We know

(10:06):
what the previously unknown substance was that was squirted on
ilhan omar the other night. I'll have that for you next.
Here on Nebraska's Morning News after a nurse, This is
a VCU nurse who was exposed by that libs of
TikTok social media stream. They find videos where people put
stuff like this out and then they just give them

(10:28):
an additional spotlight. Hey, look what she says. This is
a VCU nurse encouraging people to find their local nurses
or people in the medical field and get something. I
don't have any idea how to pronounce this sucking cololene
or something like that. I don't it's but it's something
that causes short acting muscle paralysis that can last for

(10:53):
about five minutes. And she's saying, put this stuff in
some syringes and you could jab some of the ice
agents with it and resist, you know. So she's telling
people to grab a syringe full of something that causes
short acting muscle paralysis and go out there and just

(11:14):
start stabbing ice agents. She's encouraging other people to not
only do that, but they will get themselves killed in
the process. So here comes a guy with a syringe
full of something coming at Congressmoman ilhan Omar in Minneapolis.
Did he have that in there? You could even put
saline in there and probably have a similar impact. No,

(11:37):
he squirts at her. Here's the liquid that we all
wondered what in the heck that was. It was described
as a really foul smelling liquid. Turns out it was
apple cider vinegar. Yeah, that's fatal apple cider vinegar. He's
squirting her with orange, with apple juice. That's what that's

(12:02):
what smelled.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
Now again that all you need to know is that
if that was a lone wolf an on his own
singular anti ilhan Omar person, he would have sprayed some
other than apple juice and vinegar at her. Okay, So
that's another example of why this was staged. This was
all planned out by her and her people and this thing.

(12:25):
Look at the video. There is no consistency between what
happened with her and somebody acting as a rogue warrior,
a maga dude that hates her and wants to embarrass
her or injure her or something else.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
I'll continue to say, well, thank goodness, he didn't have
worse intentions in mind, whether he was acting as the
lone wolf or whether he was looking at his script
going on, she's gonna say this, He's gonna give me
the nod stage direction. You stand up, take two steps,
squort thing, Okay, I'm ready to go. So I don't know.
The guy posted all kinds of pro Trump, anti Omar,

(13:00):
anti Biden stuff in a social media for years. I
don't know why these two would be in cahoots. It's
not like they were, you know, in the Jesse Smolette situation,
where they were lovers who pumped iron in each other.
So I follow the money. I don't know. Well, that's
Lucy's line, She's to follow the money person. I know
that this is a time in the morning where you've

(13:22):
got kids in the car, you're driving around. I'm telling
you you can leave the radio on. It's okay, but
you might be exposed to some racist, horrible, unst relenting,
insensitive comments by the President of the United States right now.
I'm telling you that, right now, this is stuff that's

(13:43):
been described. All the things I just listed, let's listen
to these horrible comments by the President of the United States.

Speaker 3 (13:50):
There are those in the immigrants rights community who have
argued passionately that we should simply provide those who are
illegally with legal status, or at least ignore the laws
on the books, and put an end to deportation until
we have better laws. And often this argument is framed

(14:13):
in moral terms. Why should we punish people who are
just trying to earn a living. I recognize the sense
of compassion that drives this argument, but I believe such
an indiscriminate approach would be both unwise and unfair. It

(14:34):
would suggest to those thinking about coming here illegally that
there will be no repercussions for such a decision, and
this could lead to a surge in more illegal immigration.
And it would also ignore the millions of people around
the world who are waiting in line to come here legally. Ultimately,

(15:00):
our nation, like all nations, has the right and obligation
to control its borders and set laws for residency and citizenship.
And no matter how decent they are, no matter they
are reasons, the eleven million who broke these laws should

(15:20):
be held accountable.

Speaker 1 (15:21):
Sor right, let's cut it off there. That's a lot
of racism, that's a lot of insensitivity. That's a lot
of locking kids in cages. That is you know, that's
just no compassion there. And I warned you going into
that clip. Insensitive, racist, heartless comments from the president of
the unit, not the current. That's from twenty ten. That's

(15:42):
President I don't know if you heard from the voice,
but that is President Barack Obama saying all of that.
So I apologize for hitting you with that this morning.
It's a lot of insensitivity there, Jim.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
Yeah, but they would say, oh, wall wait, wait, wait
a minute. You know now you're just hijacking Barack's words.
They're taken out of contacts. And by the way, you know,
none of his people were beating up anybody or shooting
anybody in Minneapolis. Don't be talking to me about that stuff.
That's that's a cheap shot. It's gotten Jam, Don't do that.
And here's the response to that, Peter, there was there
was that was pretty good. The response is all these

(16:17):
presidents said something. All the presidents said BARACKO. President Obama
talked a really good game. And the Democrats in the
United States Senate funded ICE every single year of his presidency,
eight years in a row, fully funded ICE, and then
they condemned ICE when Trump was in office, and they
broke records in funding ICE. When Biden was in office,
and now suddenly like we're gonna shut down the government

(16:39):
because we don't like Ice. The fact of the matter,
they all talked a good game, no one did anything.
And there's a great meme going around that various faces
attached to it. But the I'll change a word here,
but basically the meme is, Hey, you like him or not,
you can't argue President Trump doesn't mess around. Trump's doing stuff. Well,

(17:03):
we know what's going on here, Scott, and that is
the Democrats are deafly afraid the Donald Trump's economic package
is going to deliver for Republicans in November. They are
desperately afraid that that could happen because Americans maybe, and
it hasn't happened in my household yet, but I'm hopeful
Americans are going to have more money in their pockets.

(17:24):
They're going to be spending less for the stuff than
they've been spending, and they're going to give the president
credit for that. And the big beautiful bill like this
thousand dollars account. If you apply for this, the government's
going to give your baby one thousand dollars to use
for future college expenses or future retirement accounts, and you
can add to it all you want, up to five
thousand dollars a year of tax free. Most folks probably

(17:48):
won't be able to do that, but this is a
really great gesture. And if people leave it alone, that'll
have a lot of money in it when they're sixty
five years old. But stuff like that is going to
start resonating with the American people, and the Democrats in
this country, actually in DC are mortified of the possibility
that this country might be in good shape come the
November elections. Now, the best way to derail Trump's economy

(18:09):
is to shut down the government is to say, well,
we are standing up for those people like Alex Pritty,
who's a felon. But I don't care if he's a felon.
He didn't deserve to get shot, regardless of how the
law says he should have been technically not a felon.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
He didn't get arrested in charge of felony. Accounts could
have been based.

Speaker 2 (18:25):
On he committed a fellaw we saw, but he committed
a felony may not I mean charged because he's dead.
But if you look at the the way the law
is written, he committed actually two felonies. He should have
been arrested for the first one and he got shot
for the second one. But the truth is this is
all politics. It's about how do we win an election
in November, and the best way to do that is

(18:46):
to tank the economy. And we can't do that unless
the government is shut down.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
News Radio eleven to ten kofa B in Nebraska's Morning
News with Lucy Chapman. How was that donut? By the way,
old and dry? Lucy had? It's sauntered because Lucy is
a heck of a saunterer. Lucy sauntered over to the microwave.
So what are you eating? She goes, dry old donut? Well,

(19:12):
the microwave helped you were trying to frankenstein it back
to life. Yes, she yelled, it's alive and did it
reanimate itself.

Speaker 4 (19:20):
I wouldn't say reanimate, but certainly re plumped it.

Speaker 1 (19:28):
Well, you know it is winter, we pack on. Oh
the donut, well, yeah, you know either way, all right,
So that's uh Lucy with a dry old donut. Craig
Evans and Jim Rose here as well. I am the
living embodiment of a dry old donut. My name is
Scott vorhees, Oh please and thank you. I'm sorry again,

(19:49):
but I have some some bad news. Tim Walls, who
as you know, dropped out of his race for governor
of Minnesota, not only says that he's committed to not
running for re election in Minnesota, but he says, and

(20:10):
I quote, I will never run for elected office again.
This is real sacrifice.

Speaker 4 (20:21):
That's his love letter to us.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
This is tough to hear. I had hope to have
that level of entertainment for years to come on some level.
But you know, let's try and find a glimmer of
hope here. He says, I'm not going to run for office. Well,
when he was on the vice presidential ticket, he didn't
really run to get on it, and vice presidents don't.

(20:45):
But so it could be that when President Jacob Fry
takes office here in just a few years, Tim Wallas
is not given up on accepting a cabinet position.

Speaker 4 (21:00):
How's he going to stay rich if he gets out
of politics.

Speaker 1 (21:03):
We're adding a department of buffoonery. I think that's a
that's active. The dose couldn't even shut that down. It
has different names, though, what would other what's a legitimate
cabinet position? You would see Tim Walls in in a
President Jacob Frye administration.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
Secretary of buffoonery. That's what he does best. Hello, boys,
he behaves. He behaves as a buffoon better than anything else.
Just look at him. Trust your eyes.

Speaker 1 (21:32):
Have you seen the Little Piggies in Welcome on here
the sound of the song Piggies by the Beatles to
News Radio eleven ten kfav It is Senator Jony Earnston.
Before we start talking about some of the other big
news here of the of the week. Senator, you're out

(21:52):
with your latest squeal award. What do we got?

Speaker 5 (21:56):
Oh my gosh, where we're always always finding out there?
And what I've done. I've now introduced a fraud Act.
And what we have seen up in Minnesota with all
of those leering centers, it has taught us that we
really need to do a deep dive. So we know

(22:19):
that we've uncovered these leering centers childcare centers in Minnesota
that really didn't exist, and we've estimated that about ten
percent of our budget nationwide is lost to fraud each year.
So I've introduced a new act that would close these
loopholes and prevent the examples of childcare and healthcare fraud

(22:41):
that we've seen in Minnesota. So that's our latest. We're
excited about going after all of this fraud. It's just
really important that we do this and nip it in
the bud because we've already lost billions of dollars to
fraudsters and scammers.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
ICE is operating across the country. The only place we're
seeing this level of pushback is in a place that
some people argue might be trying to cover up some
of the fraud there from the leering centers, the Somali
fraud situation there in Minnesota. What do you see you say,
we're seeing this in Minnesota. We're seeing a lot in
Minnesota here recently. What are your thoughts on ICE operations

(23:20):
in that area of Minneapolis and the moves that President
Trump and now borders are Tom Homan are making in
that community.

Speaker 6 (23:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (23:29):
Absolutely. This is really tough because we've seen the shootings,
we've seen the protests, We've seen them go after the
ICE agents, and no one wants to see our law
abiding citizens or our law enforcement hurts. Now when we
have protesters that go beyond protesting, that's when things get tense.

(23:54):
That needs to stop. So I'm really glad that Tom
Homan is now in Minnesota. He can de escalate, he
can bring that temperature down. We need greater communication between
the federal government and those local authorities, whether it's the
state or the cities, and so I'm anxious to see

(24:17):
how these investigations turn out. But it certainly is non
excuse as we look at what's going on in the
Senate right now, for Democrats to shut down the government.
Minnesota is really a fire keg. We're trying to bring
the temperature down. But Democrats here in Washington, DC are
looking at what's going on in Minnesota and they're trying

(24:40):
to stall on these spending bills. They want to shut
the government down. We're going to try and prevent that.

Speaker 2 (24:46):
Jim Rose, well, as you know Senator Ernst, it's all
about the president because if they shut down the government,
this will derail his economic package. And every one of
them is mortified that it'll work and Americas will vote
for Republicans in November. I mean, it's not that difficult,
it's not that complicated. But let's go back to fraud.
The President has nominated a federal prosecutor for a new

(25:06):
role fraud investigator. It's Colin MacDonald. He will be Deputy
Attorney General for National Fraud Enforcement. Is this part of
your bill or is your bill separate from that?

Speaker 5 (25:17):
Yeah, my bill is separate than that, but it's something
that we have been encouraging the administration to do. So
kudos to the President and the administration for taking fraud seriously.
So these are issues that I continue to raise with
the administration. I have been tasked with putting together a

(25:38):
fraud package, a bill that will combat fraud across the
United States. Have been tasked by Leader John Thune to
do that and work with my colleagues on the Doge Caucus.
So we're putting that package together right now. And this
goes a step further by having that leading leading guy
or gal in this case, guy after fraud across our

(26:02):
federal government. This is really really important because we've seen
fraud through the years. I've raised these issues for eleven years,
and finally I have a go to person that I
can lean on to make sure that people are held accountable.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
It isn't this what DOJE was supposed to do. You
guys got out of the gate with Doge there last
January to do this. What's the latest on that, how
much has been cut, how much has been pulled back?
How well is DOGE working.

Speaker 5 (26:33):
Actually, DOGE is working really, really well. And I'll give
you one example that just happened. We learned the administration
just canceled the high speed rail project in or our
funding of the high speed rail project in California. Nancy
Pelosi's trained nowhere that in itself just this year was

(26:54):
four billion dollars. That's just one example of the issues
that I have been pushing with the President and my
colleagues have been pushing with the president. The nine billion
dollar recisions package. That was all of my DOGE work
issues that I've been working on the past number of years.
We've finally got a president that's listening to Congress when

(27:17):
it comes to identifying fraud and waste. And this is
a person, a point person that now we have in
the administration that our caucus can work with and again
hold people accountable, because while we can identify the fraud,
we cannot go after that fraud. Now we have someone

(27:38):
that can coordinate with the Department of Justice, which is
part of the administration, in identifying fraudsters and can actually
hold them accountable. As Congress, we provide the oversight, but
we don't have the teeth that the administration does to
actually go after these individuals and be able to you know,

(27:58):
whether they need to go to jail or whether there
has to be some level of payback that can be
determined now by the administration.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
Senator just moments left here with you on eleven ten
kfab Senator Jony Ernst, here, does Christy Nome, the Department
of Homeland Security secretary, need to step down or be fired?

Speaker 5 (28:15):
Well, I tell you what. That's the President's team and
his decision. But what I will say with Secretary Christine Nome,
she helped me secure justice for our Iowan Sarah Root
and Sarah Root's family. Sarah Root, if you remember, was
killed years ago, over a decade now ago, by an

(28:37):
illegal alien. And it was Christine Nome who went after
this illegal in Honduras and had him extradited back to
the United States.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
That was right here in Omaha. We've talked with her
parents several times on this radio station. That's a horrible
story for our community, Nebraska and Iowa. And finally send
a there is the government going to shut down after tomorrow?

Speaker 5 (29:03):
Yeah, Well, a shutdown benefits nobody, and this will be
all on Schumer if he does this. This is democratic
hypocrisy on full display. So we're hoping that we don't
shut it down. I think we've still got some really
good discussions going on. I look forward to the vote
at eleven thirty today Eastern time. It'll show us who's

(29:25):
on board with keeping the government open and who wants
to shut it down. So more to follow, but I
actually think we can press forward and keep the government open.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
Appreciate the time, Senator Jony Arnes, thank you so much
for joining us here on news Radio eleven ten kfab Lucy,
how's your private jet doing? Have you been staying within
the boundaries? We told you only for legitimate business reasons,
and you come back all ten after the weekend and
we have to ask questions.

Speaker 4 (29:55):
Well, you can ask questions all you want, but that
doesn't mean that I have to answer them.

Speaker 1 (30:02):
That's true. You plead the fifth a lot around.

Speaker 4 (30:06):
No, I don't plead the fifth. I just tell you
to shut up none of your business.

Speaker 1 (30:10):
Yeah, that's your lawyer says. One thing you interpreted a
different way. Lucy doesn't know about the other amendments of
the bill. A right, but she's very familiar with the fifth. Yes,
I asked, because you're not alone. Brian Nickel, his personal
use of the company jet he is the CEO of Starbucks,

(30:31):
has been called into question and they've tried to put
some parameters on it. Well, now Starbucks has removed the
two hundred and fifty thousand dollars annual limit on his
personal use of the company jet. And the reason they're
saying that, and they've always said, like, look, we give
him private jet. You know, he lives in Newport Beach.

(30:51):
He's got to go to Seattle a lot that's a
thousand miles and got to fly back and forth. Couldn't
possibly wouldn't expect him to live in Seattle. So he's
got to fly back and forth and that's fine. And
sometimes he goes other places and does other stuff, some
personal use and all that. And we'd previously said, hey, Brian,
you can't use the private jet all the time for

(31:14):
this stuff. Well they finally said he can do whatever
he wants with it. And the reason they're giving quote
credible threat actors unquote for his scooters for his security
against Starbucks. Yeah, probably from scooters. You know, there are
a lot of people trying to take him down, I guess.

(31:34):
And we can't expect him to just get on a
Delta flight, you know, because the credible threat actors will
get him. So he's got to take a private jet
for his own safety. He's the CEO of a coffee chain.
Who's who's coming after? The CEO of Starbucks. South Africa
said they're not going to show people the Millennia movie
and we're pulling it.

Speaker 4 (31:55):
Yay free speech.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
Yeah, yes, the uh not sure why South Africa would
be uh you know that place where apartheid flourished there.
We're not showing the Millennia movie because Trump's bad? Like
what what Trump ever do to you? President Trump? By
the way, just on true Social said the bombing of
South Africa stars in five minutes. Thank you for your
attention to this matter. We got a big Armada, huge

(32:19):
arm huge Armanda coming to South Africa will blow you.
He's gonna show the Millennia movie. You're gonna let people
in for free, We're gonna pay for it. And he
didn't say any of that, but South Africa for some
reason said, yeah, the political climate being what it is,
we're not going to show the Millennia movie. It couldn't
possibly be that people would just decide whether or not

(32:40):
to see this movie. Now, Jim Rose was telling me
that the First Lady, Milania Trump, was on Fox the
other day and she yesterday afternoon was asked about her
her husband dancing to Wow. See they're talking about the movie.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
They she was on the five for those folks, and
she's just such an amazing person and her presence is
off the charts, and so they're doing this movie, this
MGM production of her. I don't know what it centers on,
maybe the last month or two before the election in
twenty twenty four and then all the way through the inauguration.

(33:17):
But she was on there. She was getting interviewed by
these people. She's full of class. And they did ask
her about the you know, the Trump shuffle. When he
plays Ymca and he starts dancing. He doesn't really dance,
He just kind of clinches his fists and you know,
he just moves back and forth. I mean, he's not
really breaking a sweat, no, And then he's really getting

(33:37):
into it, you know, he throws his hands out a
little further and kind of goes a little more at it.
But she said, ah, yeah, that is Donald dancing, and
I said, don't dance, but he does it anyway. I
wonder what that guy. That guy is so lucky to
have her as a wife, I mean, my guy.

Speaker 1 (33:57):
You'll notice that she came out a few days ago
and said, we need to come together. We need peace.
What's happening in Minneapolis with people fighting and people getting shot.
This is someone necessary. We need peace. And after the
first lady did that, it does seem like the President
softened his tone a bit here and started making those

(34:18):
moves about, all right, this cowboy is out of Minneapolis.
We're bringing Tom Holman in, who of course the Democrats
hate him too. They loved him before and he was
working for other Democrat presidents, but they hate him now now.

Speaker 2 (34:29):
When Obama hung a medal around his neck, they thought
he was great.

Speaker 1 (34:33):
Yeah, but it does seem like the President struck a
slightly different tone after the first lady had said we
need to come together, we need some peace. And she
said this yesterday on Fox quote he talking about her husband. Obviously,
would like to have a country that all of the
people can walk down the street and not be harassed.

(34:55):
Or murdered or women raped. A few years ago, so
many criminals came over the order, and he closed the
border now a while back, already we need to take
care of our citizens. So she seems to have a
calming effect on him, and he then in this moment
where his polls are slipping and midterm elections and people

(35:17):
are you know, saying like, look, I wanted him to
close the border. I didn't want him actually do anything
about getting rid of criminal legal aliens and all. He's
brought her into a more political side. Because you can
look at former First Ladies and say, well, they certainly
loved the attention to this, and they had this, cause
that and so forth. I don't know that you can

(35:37):
really say that about this First Lady. She's not out there, No,
she's not. She's absolutely quite the opposite. Hillary Clinton was
like a co president. Rosalind Carter was the one who
actually first first brought to us the office of the
First Lady, and she sat in on cabinet meetings, and

(35:58):
she was Jimmy Carter's closest advisor.

Speaker 2 (36:01):
I don't think Barbara Bush got involved with much. I
don't think Laura Bush got involved in much. I don't
think Lady bir Johnson got involved in much. But we've
had some very powerful first ladies down through the years,
Dolly Madison, Abigail Adams, all the way through elam or Roosevelt.
But this one is absolutely apolitical. This one shuns the publicity,
shuns the spotlight. I think she's high class. I think

(36:23):
she does things that are not really in the public
view around the White House. I think she's very engaged
with cultural issues, social issues. Because she speaks five languages,
she could be very helpful internationally, but she doesn't want
to do that. She sees her life as the wife
of this president. She has her own business, and she's
the mother of a college student, and that's a very

(36:47):
healthy approach to life that is often pushed aside. No,
you're the first lady at the United States. You have
to be Michelle Obama. You have to get out there
and start telling people what to do. You have to
be Hillary Clinton, who in nineteen ninety three wanted to
up completely overload the American healthcare system. Well, no, no, no, Actually,

(37:08):
this one says, I have other things, And besides, they
didn't elect me, they elected him. He makes those decisions
for me. My least favorite first lady, but I suspect
that he asks her opinion. Yeah, my least favorite first
lady Michelle Obama. And now I'll say this, and this
is going to drive some people crazy when she's out

(37:29):
there gooping around with Conan O'Brien or Jimmy Fallon and
doing some of that stuff. She's incredibly likable. I think
her personality and a fantastic I like her. I could
hang out with Michelle Obama all day. But when my
kids were coming up through elementary school, one of my
favorite things to do is go hang out with them
and have lunch. So I could have my son's kindergarten

(37:50):
friends say, is that your grandpa? As I, honestly goodness
sitting next to him with the full head of gray hair,
is that your grandpa? So I'd go have lunch with
my kids. In public schools under the Obama administration, that
lunch that she instituted was absolutely inedible. And I can't
think about the athletes like, here's one bite of some

(38:12):
cold frozen chicken and then some inedible thing of peaches
or something like that. What she did with school lunches
is unforgivable, just awful, and I had to sit there
and eat it because I want to go hang out
with my Start inserting yourself into public policy publicly, and
you ought not be doing that now. Nancy Reagan, as
history has taught us, was very engaged with the presidents

(38:35):
in her circle, not offering advice or policy suggestions, just
protecting him. She'd sit in the back of the room
and say, all right, that one is loyal, that one isn't.
As the late Donald Reagan how that worked out for him.
And she was looking out for people who were loyal
to the president, which is what they're supposed to be.

Speaker 1 (38:53):
Are you going to go see the movie?

Speaker 2 (38:55):
I think so, yeah. I think the Boss and I
are going to go see this movie. I just I mean,
she's obvious the most beautiful first lady we've ever.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
Had by a country mile.

Speaker 2 (39:03):
But I just think this woman has so much more
to offer this country because of her international experience, because
of her glamour, and she lights up her room, and
she has wonderful taste, and I think she's got a
big heart. What she said in the wake of Charlie
Kirk's death was probably as political as she'll ever get,
and it wasn't political it was this is what we

(39:25):
have now. We have two children who will not grow
up with memories just headlines. It was really, really brilliantly crafted,
and I'm not surprised. I think she's a really, really
intelligent woman.

Speaker 1 (39:37):
And in the two minutes we have until Rosie takes
the microphone, Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Gary Sadlemeyer Warner Boys, Gary,
what are you doing? Nice for you to wander in?
I told you, he told me what I had hought
this place, I know, and I promised the people that
you would And then I look like a liar because

(39:59):
we go week without seeing you.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
We still want you around. I know that that it
puts us in rare company and.

Speaker 6 (40:05):
I miss you.

Speaker 1 (40:05):
Guys.

Speaker 2 (40:05):
Have got to be honest, Hey, Gary Settlements, you remember
she remembers you.

Speaker 6 (40:13):
Actually, I have a little work to do that.

Speaker 1 (40:17):
Yeah. What's it like when you're retired and someone's like, hey,
I need you to do something.

Speaker 6 (40:22):
Because here's here's the response invariably to that.

Speaker 1 (40:25):
Yeah like that, I mean, I have to get up.
But when you were when you were here, when you
were here full time, we'd often get that sound effects
of annoyance. That's the the the longer and deeper the side.
That's the closer we knew Gary was closer to retirement.

Speaker 6 (40:46):
Well, it's good to see you guys with all the day,
all that's.

Speaker 2 (40:51):
Going on up in the People's Republic of Minnesota and
something to say, any builds you want to purge here?

Speaker 6 (40:58):
No, it's just preposterous. And the whole thing is, the
whole thing is I have to wonder how much of
this is a relief to the powers that be up
there that it's taken the focus at least for a while,
off the fraud investigations. I mean, this is, this is

(41:18):
just taking over the room.

Speaker 1 (41:19):
This special friend of.

Speaker 2 (41:21):
Il hat Omar, that little staged attack on her gave
these twenty four hours of relief.

Speaker 1 (41:27):
Yeah, thanks for not coming in here and spraying us
with apple cider vinegar. Yeah, well I thought about it.
Bring some bring something in there for us to drink.
But I love it. I love it.

Speaker 6 (41:37):
Rosie. You just declared yesterday that it was a it
was a set up here, So some things never changed
what we do here,
