Talk Radio Potpourri

Today's batch smells like a really dumb shutdown, Mayor Ewing's Facebook page, high school football forfeits, blown-up cartel boats, Judge Reinhold, and more.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Scott Vordiez, thank you very much for hanging out here
with us on Nebraska's news, weather and traffic station. In
case you've been wondering, Scott and Lucy and Oliver Splendor
and or glory, how much dumber can this government shutdown?
Get well, I'm happy to tell you yesterday we had
Democratic leaders go marching into Mike Johnson's office. He is

(00:26):
the Speaker of the House. They went in there and
demanded did he swear in Representative elect at Elita Clea.
I don't know how to pronounce her name, Grela. I
don't do four hundred and thirty five members of the House.
She's the one who just won an Arizona special election
to succeed a Representative Raoul Grijavola. So I guess this

(00:51):
is his wife, so she won the chance to fill
out the rest of his term. I've never heard of
these people. Five members of the House. Do something and
then I'll have heard of you and learn how to
pronounce your name. Until then, hey, good for you. You
are one of four hundred and thirty five votes who

(01:12):
currently can't do jack because there's no government. So they're
still like hanging around Washington, though, they're just they're like
street gangs right now, and so they're like, what are
we going to do today? We don't have anything to do. Well.
We could sleep in, play video games all day and
eat pizza, and I did that yesterday, So what are

(01:33):
we gonna do? Well? This woman got elected in an
Arizona special election to succeed her husband, and I'm guessing,
unless it's just a coincidence, they each have the same
last name, I'm getting hung up on the wrong thing. Anyway,
she hasn't been sworn in yet. She won this election

(01:53):
three weeks ago, and she's not officially a member of
the House of Representatives because she hasn't been sworn in.
And there's a lot of people I all swear at her, No,
not sworn at Hey, up your nose with a rubber hose, Sorry,
pardon my language. Adult themes on today's program was Epstein, right, Epstein?

(02:18):
Barberino could be any.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
Of them, that's true, Barbarino said, it could.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
Have been mister Cotter. I don't know. I think everyone didn't.
Isn't that all that show was? Yeah, you had a
great theme song, and that everyone with rubber noses and
hoses that's pretty much all.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
That show was, right, and Epstein's mom.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Epstein's mom has got it going on. That's Stacy's mom.
I'm all confused what happened yesterday? Oh as I was
trying to tell you before Lucy got me off track.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
Welcome to my Wow.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
That was a major eye roll by Lucy Chapman there.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
It's the only time I get to talk.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
She got she got elected, she hasn't been sworn in,
and how they've decided that it's an outrage she hasn't
been sworn in. You know, the people of this district
in Arizona deserve her representative. And just because the government
shutdown doesn't mean that we can't swear her in so
she can assume her House duties of not doing anything

(03:17):
during a government shutdown. The House has already voted on
this stuff, and they're not going to go back and
do anything different and send anything different to the Senate anyway.
Several dozen House Democrats marched into Mike Johnson's office Speaker
of the House Mike Johnson's office last night, demanding you

(03:37):
must swear in Adelita Grevalla. She's a duly elected representative
from whatever district in Arizona and she must be sworn in.
It's been three weeks. Come on, this is ridiculous. They
marched it and they started chanting, swear her in, swear
her in. It was quite the scene. If only Mike
Johnson had been there to see it. He wasn't in

(04:01):
his office last night. It's not clear whether or not
the Democrats who decided we're marching on in his office
right now. It's not clear whether they even knew that.
I expect that they knew he probably wouldn't be there,
after all, it was last night. Now, these house members,
they worked odd hours, late night. We've heard from Lee Terry.

(04:24):
Sometimes you sleep in the office. He had a couch
in his office to sleep in the office sometimes, crazy times.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
I know that. I watched The West Wing.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
Sometimes you sleep in the office, and sometimes you sleep
with someone in the office. Bradley Whitford and Donna they
got together in that show.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Yeah, but not fast enough.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
They just gave it away.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
They needed to be together much quicker.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
No, I was fine with it. I was good with it.
There's so much else going on in that show. What
a great show, one of the best of all time.
So the Speaker has said, look when the House is
back in session, will swear her in? Well, that wasn't
good enough for you. What exactly, I don't know if
you need to have like a quorum of House members

(05:09):
there to swear in an officer or if the speaker
and just be like, fine, do any of you Democrats
have a Bible on you? No? Sorry, it might be
a cheap shot, might not. I don't know, ilhan Omar,
did you bring a Christian Bible with you? No, I'm
shocked and surprised.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
Just look for something smoke coming out of the desk.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
Right, that'll keep him busy for a while. Yeah, some
of you House Democrats. And this is not to say
that all Democrats are blood guzzling Satan worshippers, not all
of you. It's only a slight majority. It seems seems
it seems like I don't know, look at the news
and social media and sometimes I wonder, but it's not

(05:54):
like all the Democrats are a bunch of atheists or whatever.
But seems based on the actions of some of these
politicians and the ACLU and so forth, as sometimes I wonder. So, yeah,
they go marching into the Speaker's office. You gotta swear
her in. Well, we need a bible to swear in.
Why don't you one of you guys go round up
a bible. A bible. I haven't seen one of those

(06:16):
since I was a kid. Let me go ask my
father where's he. He's back in Utah. Okay, we'll go
go find one. And they come back and go, that's
the Book of Mormon. It's fine book. But he was
all right, that'll keep him busy for a while. So,
just in case you're wondering how much dumber can this
shutdown get that amount of dummer, we went marching on

(06:41):
and chanting at an empty office where the speaker was
not in it, demanding that he who wasn't there, do
something that I'm not even sure legally he can do.
Gary Sademeyer was mentioning earlier that perhaps this shutdown is
kind of now taking a turn where Senator Chuck Schumer

(07:03):
has been leading this shut down from the Senate, where
it's all hung up right now. There was an eighth
vote yesterday to end the shutdown. It did not pass,
and the Democrats blamed Republicans for not passing it, even
though Republicans all voted to pass it and open the government.

(07:23):
Democrats voted against it. Obviously that's Republicans fault. So Gary
was saying that sounds like perhaps what's going on is
Senator Chuck Schumer is like, now he's got to try
and save face, Like I stood up to Trump. I
shut down the government. But we can't have this go

(07:44):
on forever? So how can I get the government reopen
and also save face that hey, I was standing up
to Trump? Well, you got to find some politically viable
members of the Senate, meaning when they come up for real,
if they end up doing Trump's bidding and voting to

(08:04):
end the shutdown, it won't be their political death knell.
They'll be able to survive it politically, whether they're up
for reelection next year or two years, four years, whatever,
it's who knows what will happen in this country in
four years. So you get some of these people and say,
all right, vote to end the shutdown, saying, look, I

(08:24):
heard from the people in my district and they wanted
us to end our political squabbles right now. Make sure
our military is paid, and make sure people are getting
the services they deserve from our federal government. We have
some very serious issues on which to work, and we
will continue to do that while the government is in session,
and then Schumer can still vote against it, and he

(08:47):
can say, hey, I tried. I stood up to Trump.
I tried. So if that's going on, imagine being military. Yes,
you've heard that the president is going to make sure
the military is paid, but you're not sure whether a

(09:07):
judge is going to step in and go, oh, the
president wanted to do something. Uh, tell him no, find
a judge to tell him no. Yes, I'm a judge.
Can you tell the president no? Sure like that? That's
Aaron judge. You're a baseball player. You can't. Hey, I'm
Aaron federal judge. A lot of people didn't know that

(09:27):
was my middle name. What about Judge Reinhold, I'm Judge Reinhold. Yeah,
go find Judge Reinhold. Where is he? He's in the bathroom.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
I love it.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
If you're a guy of a certain age and you
don't know that reference what has happened in your life
to make sure that you Maybe you didn't know the
actress name, maybe they didn't know the actor's name. Maybe
you didn't know the actor's name.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
But what does that say about me that I knew
what you were talking about. You insulted, you're a.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
You're a good person of a certain age, and we
all watch that show. Why do we watch Fast Times
at Richmond, Richmont, Ridgemont, Richmond? Why do we watch Fast
Times at Richemont High because we weren't supposed to.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
I watched it, Chris PACOLEI those guys are no.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
You can't say that on the radio, all right. I
know that, dude. That might be the best line in
the whole movie. He just walks in points at a
random guy. I know that, dude. That's my favorite line
in Fast Times. Uh yeah, I'm go find a judge
to tell President Trump you can't do something. I'm Mike Judge,

(10:41):
creator of Beavis and butt Head and Office Space. Can
I tell him not to.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
Get Hill too right?

Speaker 3 (10:48):
Maybe?

Speaker 1 (10:49):
I don't know. Yeah, I think he did do King
of the Hill because one of the characters from King
of the Hill was kind of a character in the
Beavis and butt Head movie. Yeah right, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
Did you see they tried to reboot that just within
the last few months.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
Which one King of the Hill Hill.

Speaker 3 (11:07):
No, it was horrible, really, it was so bad. Couldn't
get through the first episode.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
Didn't boom o ur die.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Half of the stat half of the characters are dead.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
Too bad. AI can only do so much anyway. They're
going to find a judge or someone named judge tell
the President he can't do this. So imagine being a
military spouse. You're not sure if you're gonna get that check,
and then you find out that the reason why you're
having to beg lie, cheat, borrow, and steal to get

(11:37):
money is because Chuck Schumer is trying to save face,
and you're looking in his face, going that face, this
is the face we're trying to save. I'm not sure
how I'm going to be able to afford this or
that or who I'm going to be in debt to
and on what terms, because that guy needs to save
that face, which is melting off of his skull. Chuck,

(11:59):
take off the Hellen mask. It's only October fifteenth. Oh
that's your face. Juck Schumer looks like he just stared
into the ark of the Covenant. His face is melting
off his skull. If that's a little too personal, Lord,
I apologize and be with the starving pygmies down there
in New Guinea. Get her done. Little Larry the cable

(12:21):
guy lying there for you. So that's for the latest
here on the shutdown, except that there's just one more thing.
It's kind of exposing one thing, and this is the
whole hang up of what the Democrats want. And Republicans
have been kind of waiting for someone to notice this. Well,

(12:44):
people are starting to notice this. It might be more
if the Democrats continue to hold off on ending they
want to have this shutdown go on forever, then something
that they love might go away. I'll explain next.

Speaker 4 (13:03):
Scott Bores News Radio eleven ten KFAB.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
And the Zonkers custom was in box scottkfab dot com.
Darren says Speaker Chapman released the Epstein's mom's files. All right, now,
Lucy got it. Took her a moment. You're the one
who said it. You're the one who referenced Epstein's mom.
That was a welcome back. That was a welcome back.
Catter reference, Lucy, welcome back.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
Oh thank you?

Speaker 1 (13:28):
Yes, And Corley says that the Arizona representative is daughter
of the guy who died, not wife. I bet she's
just cute as a button third grader.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
That could be why they can't swear her in, right,
she's in class, sweetie.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
But I want to be a congressman. Now, okay, darling,
we'll get you sworn in. Wouldn't look, let's just think
about this for a second. Okay, you have four hundred
and thirty five representatives in the House. You take every
single one of them and you replace them with their

(14:06):
grandchildren or.

Speaker 2 (14:08):
Children or has already been done with ai.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
Or a neighbor kid who's in the vicinity of about
third or fourth grade, and no one tells the American
people this has happened. How many weeks, months, years go
by before we notice the change in this country? The
correct answer is, we would never notice a change in
this country. I concur well, we'd still have the quotes

(14:35):
coming from the media, like the media would be in
on it, and they still give us the quote like
the the congressman from Maryland referred to his counterpart on
the other side of the aisle from Alaska as a
quote poopy head end quote. And you're like, yeah, then
checks out. I'll tell you what the level of our

(14:55):
political discourses.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
Of course, everybody's making fun of everybody else's name right
in their error.

Speaker 4 (15:05):
It.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
There would be literally no change the current government shutdown, though,
is exposing something that if Democrats here's what the Democrats want.
They're saying, what here, trivia question? Do you know what
the Democrats want?

Speaker 2 (15:22):
I don't, All right, can you tell me I know
a couple of things they want?

Speaker 1 (15:27):
Well? Yeah, I mean they ultimately they want they want
the shutdown to make Trump and the Republicans look bad.
The media will make sure that the polls either are
in that favor or we're told about the polls that
reflect that favor. Ultimately, we won't know for sure until
in election. That's still over a year from now. Eighty

(15:50):
seven billion things will happen, and that's just Trump blowing
up Buenos Aelea, Venezuelan's in the ocean. So I mean
any number of things will happen. We won't remember any
of this, but that's still that's the number one reason
why Democrats want the government shut down because they think
that they can blame it on Republicans, and that maybe
they can. But the other reason what they're asking for

(16:14):
is we need the the subsidies extended so that millions
of Americans can continue to get their healthcare because if
we don't have the government issuing these subsidies for their
health care. Millions of Americans will face soaring premiums, rising
healthcare care party. Yeah we have been, but why since when?

Speaker 3 (16:39):
M I don't know exactly, but I don't know anybody
who can afford to go to the doctor, even if
they have insurance.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
It's like trying to fix this at home. You broke
your leg, Well I've got some tape.

Speaker 1 (16:52):
Yeah, a tape, duct tape, dirt. Yeah. Yeah. Well, just ladies,
just do what guys have always done, never go to
the doctor.

Speaker 3 (17:04):
Like me.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
For example, my wife has been yelling at me for
the last week. I've been some level of not feeling
that hot for the last couple of weeks, and I
haven't slept in a couple of weeks. Is it obvious? No, Scott,
You're doing great. Thanks who said that. My wife's been
telling me to go to the doctor. She was horrified

(17:27):
to learn last week when I was at my worst.
She's like, she said, wait a second, do you have
a doctor? I said, yeah, I think so. I've never
seen this person. Do you know how I have a
primary care physician because our health insurance years ago said
you must identify a primary care physician. Because I had one.

(17:50):
I don't know how, and then that person retired. I
think that person like I had that.

Speaker 2 (17:54):
That's what they said.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
I had to go in for a physical and they
took one look at my naked body and said I'm out. Yeah,
just retired.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
So you just got a dart and no.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
I went. I went into the I went into the
clinic next door, and I said I need a doctor,
and they said, you need to see a doctor. No,
I will never see this person the name of a
doctor who could be my primary care physician. They're like, oh,
doctor Wang has some availability. Like that's great. So I've

(18:24):
got a doctor, I guess.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
And you've never seen them, No, not sure who they are.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
I know where they are. If the person's still over there,
I know where they are. My wife was horrified to
learn this, like have you ever known me to go
to the doctor. Do you know why I don't go
to the doctor Because years ago I was really really
struggling with something. And so I finally like, this is wrong,
this is terrible. I'm going to the doctor. I went

(18:54):
in there. They did a battery of tests, they had
some do some stuff, They took some this, that took
some of that. They send it in the lab and
it all came back and they said, well, we don't
really find anything wrong with you. Like, well, that was
your one shot medicine. I will never come back here again.

Speaker 2 (19:12):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Yep, that's it.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
Well, you know, I will say it usually takes people
a few more times of doing that before they finally
get it. I won't go unless absolutely force right.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
So, a lot of people apparently do no doctors and
they believe in that kind of thing, and they go,
I'm not saying I don't believe in it. I'm not
saying if you go to a doctor, you're a fool.
I'm not that guy. You know. You're like I see
a shaman in a back alley if I really need something, right, right, yes, right?
But Democrats say we can't open the government until Republicans

(19:50):
kowt out to our demands to extend subsidies. Otherwise millions
of people would face soaring premiums Now wait a second,
you're like, well, wait, why would there be subsidy if
I have this or that or government run? Well, not government,
but if I have private health insurance, I don't need subsidies.
Oh wait a second is yes, it is it's about Obamacare.

(20:15):
This is about Obamacare. This is about the Obamacare where
they said, no, no, your tax dollars aren't going to
go to Obamacare. No, no, it's all fine. Well, this
is now showing we've been subsidizing Obamacare for fifteen years now,
and all we have are, to Lucy's point, higher prices,

(20:37):
fewer doctors, all the nurses in Los Angeles are about
to go on strike. That'll be fun for that little
burrow there in California. Yeah, good luck. And our tax
dollars go up because more and more people have been
pushed into Obamacare because a lot of corporations said, wait
a second, we don't have to offer you health insurance anymore.

(20:57):
Go get yourself some Affordable Care Act, get you some Obamacare,
and they push people into that, and more and more
people got into it, and now our tax dollars going up.
And the reason why they want to not open the
government until Republicans agree to extend subsidies for health insurance,
which by the way, would also cover I don't know
how many illegal immigrants in this country. It's all because

(21:20):
of Obamacare. Millions of Americans need these subsidies or their
health insurance costs will soar. Republicans say, we told you
this was a bad idea, and now maybe we can
use this shutdown to finally get rid of Obamacare that's
also at play in this shutdown. Isn't this fun and interesting?

(21:45):
And we're only two weeks in? Scott boyes Thank you
very much, Aaron. He emails and says you and Lucy
are fun to listen to. Thanks Sarin, I also enjoyed it.
I also enjoy it. Lucy is a actually fun to
listen to. Lucy take it away?

Speaker 2 (22:03):
Yeah, I don't think that's what you really want me
to do today.

Speaker 1 (22:06):
Well, let's take a look at this because I may
have and you probably have to run back the tape
to find whether or not I insinuated that at least
a slight majority of Democrats are I think I use
the phrase blood guzzling devil worshipers in context. It didn't

(22:28):
It wasn't as bad as it sounds. But I may
have made a joking insinuation. Let's take a look here
at the other side of the political spectrum, and let's
see what we got. Oh, someone found a group chat.
Politico is now reporting on what they say is a

(22:50):
leaked group chat featuring young Republicans Young Republicans. There are
a group of people here who were part of a
what they thought was a private group chat. These are
young Republicans who we're talking about colleged age or even
even high school age kids, and a lot of them
were New York, Arizona, Vermont, and Kansas. Involving some of

(23:14):
these young Republican leaders, it's a bunch of guys mostly.
I think it's I haven't heard about any girls in
this chat, So I think you got a bunch of
guys on what they think is a private group text
and they're just responding to each other. I'm sure it
was all in the up and up. I'm sure no

(23:35):
one used any offensive or inappropriate language or themes. Let's
take a look. Oh oh, oh my, oh this is terrible.
All of this is terrible. Now if I seem maybe
a bit glib in talking about According to Politico, leaders

(23:59):
of young Republican groups throughout the country worried what would
happen if their chat on the app telegram ever got leaked,
but they kept typing anyway. Let's see racist they referred it,
says they There was one post from someone who referred to.

(24:22):
You know, I don't need to continue, I don't need
to pass along how ugly some of this language is.
There were offensive comments made about black people, gay people, Democrats, women,
and your mom, I mean everyone. One suggestion was, hey,

(24:42):
we got to vote coming up. Anyone who votes know
is going to the gas chamber. And that was from
someone who was chair of the Kansas Young Republicans group.
So someone le all of this. Politico threw it out
there and say, hey, take a look at this twenty

(25:05):
eight thousand some odd messages of a private group chat.
Now not being glib that I will go with what
a lot of people, including the Young Republican National Federation
Board of directors said in an Instagram post yesterday. They said,

(25:27):
quote and I share what I share this assessment quote.
We are appalled by the vile and inexcusable language revealed
in the Politico article published today. Such behavior is disgraceful,
unbecoming of any Republican and stands in direct opposition to
the values our movement represents. Those involved must immediately resign

(25:51):
from all positions within their state and local Young Republican organizations.
We must hold ourselves to the highest standards of integric
respect and professionalism. One of these guys apologized kinda. He says,
I am so sorry to those offended by the See

(26:13):
that's the non apology apology. Hey, sorry if you got
all butt hurt by something I said. Still not sure
where that phrase but her came from. So sorry to
those who are offended. Hey, if you saw some stuff
I said and you had a problem with it, Yeah,
sorry you had a problem with it, Not sorry for

(26:35):
what I said. So this guy has the most non
apology apology, not only saying I'm so sorry to those
offended by the insensitive and inexcusable language found within the
more than twenty eight thousand messages of a private group
chat that I created during my campaign to lead the
Young Republicans. And then there's this. While I take complete

(26:59):
responsible ability, I have had no way of verifying their
accuracy and am deeply concerned that the message logs in
question may have been deceptively doctored. Hmmm. While I take
complete responsibility, I still think all this stuff is fake

(27:20):
and therefore I didn't say it, and if I did,
I'm sorry you were offended by it. You might think, Wow,
that's not the kind of a statement a leader makes
no but we're not talking about a leader. We're talking
about someone who wants to be in politics. So this
is this guy future president of the United States right here.

(27:47):
The most glib thing I can say about this is
I think it kind of goes under the category I'll
sometimes put things under, usually in a courtroom setting where
there's no legal standard to hold someone guilty, but you

(28:08):
look at the judge and you look at the person
on trial and you just go, judge, come on, come on.
I think that same standard has to apply here. We're
talking about teenage and young twenty somethings on what they
think is a private group chat. I can tell you
I'm on some what I think are private group texts.

(28:32):
There's one with fellow radio guys here in town, not
going to tell you who. There is another one with
some golf buddies.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
How do you do it?

Speaker 1 (28:43):
And I make the time.

Speaker 3 (28:46):
Oh no, no, no, I mean how do you get
onto group text? Because when I get sucked into one
of them, I get out as fast as I can.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
I don't care who it is.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
Well, in these instances, the textquestion either have to do
with golf or sharing. Some of the most defensive memes, gifts, statements,
post comments. Ever now the reason that guys, and let

(29:20):
me check my group text Yep, no women involved in
any of these particular group texts. I'm talking about the
phrase if I'm ever found dead, delete these texts before
my family sees my phone. May have come up a
few times in these texts. Now, these are friends of mine,

(29:42):
So I will have you know that my friends as sophomoric,
and I don't even know that their level of maturity
rises to sophomore level, to be honest with you. But
as as immature and vile and vulgar as these friends
can be, none of these posts are stuff that comes

(30:06):
from them going yeah, and I don't like black people,
you know what I mean. There's nothing in here that's
racist or anything like, because none of it is at
that level. There's some stuff in there that's incredibly insensitive
that if you if you were to find the contents

(30:27):
of this text and you put them up there and go, hey,
here's some people. Here's the guy on the radio, and
here's what he says, like, here's the picture he thought
was funny to share with his friends on Christmas Day.
I admit, if that were just posted there on the
board without any further context. It would be hard to
me to be like, hey, come on, at nine point

(30:53):
thirty on Christmas morning, you sent to you?

Speaker 2 (30:57):
Yes, I did, and if you were offended, right?

Speaker 1 (31:04):
I think the point I'm making is when, especially guys,
there's a reason why something used to be called locker
room talk. That's before we started allowing girls and boys
in each other's locker rooms. Maybe that's why we do
it to cut down on all that male locker room machismo.

(31:24):
But this is locker room talk. Do these guys truly
believe these things? You shouldn't say this stuff? I mean,
some of the comments here about race and assault and
things like that just really really ugly comments and not funny, ugly,

(31:45):
incredibly inappropriate. I'm very glad that my friends don't come
off that way. But the point is, especially the young
people now, they have no problem just finding inappropriate things
to say and just saying them. And as far as
like language, I've said this before, language involving like the

(32:09):
N word. For if you're twenty years old, you've pretty
much exclusively only heard that word as a greeting or
a term of endearment to a cherished friend in music, movies,
the hallways of sixth grade, wherever, it's almost exclusively been

(32:32):
used in that way, not by white people, and so
some white kids like, oh, I can say no, you can't.
Why not, because that's how it is. So, Yeah, this
is pretty hideous. I'm not at all surprised by it. Yeah, newsflash.

(32:58):
A bunch of guys who thought they were having private
group text said some really inappropriate things film at eleven
Scott Voice.

Speaker 4 (33:06):
News Radio eleven ten kfab.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
And talking about the Politico leak of the group chats
with a bunch of young Republicans and said some incredibly
disgusting things and they'll have to deal with the ramifications
of that. What is vulgar? What about the phrase let's
go Brandon? In case you're not familiar, there were a
group of people at an auto race chanting a very

(33:32):
vulgar phrase related to Joe Biden. The first word of
that phrase was blank, Joe Biden, so does it? And
then the reporter thought they were saying let's go Brandon
because she was talking to the winning racer whose name
was Brandon. The phrase let's go Brandon became a really
funny way of a euphemism to make a discussing political point. Well,

(33:56):
some kids wore those shirts to school. This is in
twenty twenty in Michigan, and they were asked to take
the shirts off and put on different shirts. The family sued,
saying First Amendment rights. All right, you're in a school.
You don't have First Amendment rights. But the school said,
we're not prohibiting political messages, just vulgar ones. The phrase

(34:20):
let's go Brandon is vulgar. They're like, well, we know
what they mean. So if you say darn it, are
you like, well, we know what you mean by that.
Is that vulgar? It is an open forum here, but
I will tell you this the kfab Facebook page, which
this is just you and me talking here, right, I'm

(34:43):
not thrilled about some of the vast wasteland of posts
that are on there, from outside sources beyond this radio station.
So much of it is beyond our control that it
it's not something that I am today consistently proud of.

(35:04):
I don't think it'll be like that forever. But I'm
just saying, if you go on to Kfabe's Facebook page,
and I encourage you, there's a whole lot of stuff
on there, and there's always something like something gets posted
on there and then you people like, what the heck
the way you post it? Then someone else is like, well,
I'm interested in it, and they click on it. So

(35:24):
we still have yet to find the formula where something
gets posted on there and everybody is happy about it.
But well, keep trying, right, because we're crazy like that.
But if you do post something on our Facebook page
and it comes to my attention and I recognize you

(35:45):
as just being someone who's just on there trolling other
people and making ugly and inappropriate and vulgar comments, you
can get blocked from the kfab facebook page.

Speaker 2 (36:00):
What happened to me?

Speaker 1 (36:02):
Lucy? And others can get blocked.

Speaker 2 (36:06):
I wondered why I couldn't see anymore.

Speaker 1 (36:08):
Yeah, the the kfab facebook page list of blocked users
is long and growing.

Speaker 2 (36:18):
And it's amazing, right, and great names on them.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
Oh yeah, some really good people on there. Just take
that stuff someplace else. And in case you're like, oh,
you only get you thought that you disagree, No, they're people. Really,
we don't care what political stripe you are. These days,
it's just a matter of what you say and how
you say it, and whether it's threatening or vulgar, like,

(36:45):
we don't need that stuff. No, thank you, go take
that someplace there. You don't have to go home, but
you can't stay here. You have no First Amendment right
to post on the kfab Facebook page. I'm not even
sure all the time how to post or remove posts
from the kfab Facebook page. So much of it has
been taken out of my hands. Anyway, we have here

(37:10):
a woman, a woman here in Omaha, who assued the
mayor because she got blocked from his Facebook page. Now
I guess this is the mayor John Ewing Facebook page.
Is there a difference when you become mayor. Let's say

(37:32):
you had a Facebook page long before you were mayor,
as John Ewing did, and that page used to be
posted almost exclusively with pictures of you pumping iron, which,
by the way, that's what it was. John Ewing has
been working and lifting weights, preparing for this day to

(37:52):
have the stamina and strength to lead this city. So
much of his stuff over the years has just been
weight room picks. I'm not joking AnyWho. I'm not even
one hundred percent sure whether that page then morphed into marriage.

(38:13):
I guess I could look I do have my phone here,
and I don't mean to brag, but John Ewing and
I are Facebook friends. John Ewing John w Ewing Junior
pronounced his name jehan U Ng. Yeah. Well, okay, so

(38:40):
there are two different pages. You got his personal page
which I and I said this when people were complaining
that they were getting blocked from Jene Stothart's personal Facebook
page years ago. That's her, that's her recess. Yes, she
might post on her personal Facebook page some that's germane

(39:00):
to the city of Omaha and her job. Or she
might share posts from the mayor Gene Stothard Facebook page
on her personal page. But that's her personal page. And
if you say something hideous, ugly, vulgar or whatever threatening
on there, bye bye. You know you're gonna be blocked.
I'll give John Ewing's Facebook page is personal Facebook page

(39:22):
the same consideration. You can't go on to the man's
Facebook page. These are our homes, our personal Facebook pages,
these are our silos. Is this means more? If you
come in to my house ranting and cussing, it's no
different than if you come on to my Facebook page

(39:43):
ranting and cussing. In both instances, you could be blocked. Sir, goodbye,
I ban thee. But there's also another page, Mayor John W.
Ewing Junior. Oh that's right. He's the son of the
longtime Douglas County treasurer. I will never stop saying that.

(40:06):
It don't even wait, I'm kidding. He's the same guy.
So yeah, there's a there's a professional mayor Ewing Facebook
page five three hundred followers. Wow, that's like three times
the amount of people have voted in the election. Oh

(40:27):
and last night he posted about the lawsuit. Kinda let
me finish the thought here on the lawsuit, though, there
was some woman who was posting time and time again
on his Facebook page, when are you going to fink
fix the sinkhole? When are you going to fix this sinkhole?

(40:50):
This is the one down right down the street from
the Orpheum sixteenth Street, like Harney Farnham, somewhere in that
vicinity that was opened up underneath a building that included
where people live in apartments, and people are like, is
this building going to fall down? Probably not? And so
the sinkhole opened in this past January, and Ewing part

(41:18):
of his campaign is we got to fix this sinkhole.
So he gets elected, and as far as I've seen,
the city has recently said, Okay, here's our plan to
fix this sinkhole. Still there? I guess some woman wants
Johnny Wing himself to go down there, dig his way
under the building and like hold the building up by

(41:41):
his shoulders like Atlas, which, by the way, I think
he can do. The guy has been almost exclusively lifting
weights for the better part of the last ten years.
So she just kept saying, like you said, you're going
to fix this sinkhole. I So here's one such example,

(42:04):
she said five days ago. This, I guess, was her
most recent post on the Professional Mayor Ewing Facebook page.
The Regis Building residents have just had to take out
a one million dollar loan to pay for repairs for
the sinkhole. You ran a campaign on promising to help us.

(42:27):
What happened to these promises? Is that comment vulgar? No?
Is that comment threatening? No? Is that comment otherwise inappropriate?

Speaker 3 (42:45):
No?

Speaker 1 (42:46):
Do you think that he loved seeing that? No? Could
he have just ignored it and moved on with his
life and everything would have been peachy keen. Yeah. But instead,
someone and I don't know if it's John Ewing himself
or his peoples. But someone deleted that comment and then

(43:11):
blocked this woman from his page. Her name is Lisa.
She lives in that building, so yes, it's a personal
issue for her. Now there have been lawsuits by the
building to the city. The city said, look, we can't
do this until the building does that. That's all. I

(43:34):
don't really know, but this woman has it in her
head that if we elect John Ewing, the sinkhole gets
fixed on day one. Well, here we are months down
the line and we still have kind of a plan
to do something about it. Lisa is not happy. So
she said that the Regi's Building residents just had to
take out a one million dollar loan to pay for
repairs at the sinkhole. You ran a campaign on promising

(43:56):
to help us. What happened to these promises? That comment
was deleted, she was blocked from the page, and now
she is suing, saying her First Amendment rights have been
violated by maintaining this is the lawsuit by maintaining an
interactive social media page devoted to official city business, defendant,

(44:16):
the mayor created and administered a digital space in which
citizens could speak directly to their elected official regarding matters
of public concern. By blocking plaintiff Lisa from the page
because she criticized his official conduct, defendant acted under color

(44:37):
of state law to engage in viewpoint based discrimination, violating
the First Amendment. I think this falls under which amendment
is just being Like, if you're just being petty, what
amendment has been violated? This is just petty by whether

(45:01):
it's the mayor or his people that run it, Like,
all right, this woman continues to be a thorn in
our side. Just pluck the thorn. They could have just
let her post to her heart's content. They probably responded
several times. There's current litigation between the city and the

(45:21):
property and we do have a plan in place to
fix it, and we're waiting for this to happen, and
it will be fixed and we look forward to doing
You know, you could just post that over and over
again every time she posts something. But what's interesting about
this is, first of all, what First Amendment right do
you have to post on a city Facebook page? It's Facebook?

(45:42):
Is this the government stopping you from sainsany She can
still say stuff all day on her personal Facebook page?
What right do you have to say it on the
city Facebook page. I guess that's now up to a judge.
This kind of thing comes up once in a while.
That's kind of the basis of the brew Haha and
Valley right now, where people said, yeah, we kept complaining
to the valley Facebook page that our water is brown,

(46:05):
and they just blocked all of us. So now we're
booting them out on office and having a special election.
Take that. So, how much freedom of speech do you have?
And what if that freedom of speech, though, was something
that was vulgar or threatening or whatever. Here's what the

(46:28):
city says in response. The City of Omaha has received
and reviewed a lawsuit filed in federal court regarding Facebook use.
We will respond to the lawsuit accordingly. Now on the page,
that's the official city line. On the page, the page
of Mayor Ewing says, this Facebook page has been designed

(46:52):
and is being used chiefly as a way to share updates.
It does not have comments, so now it looks like
no one can comment on the page. We believe social
media is an important vehicle for sharing information. Unfortunately, social

(47:15):
media can also cause harm by promoting vitriol, division and misinformation.
This was the thinking that led us to disable comments
from the beginning.

Speaker 2 (47:27):
No, it wasn't.

Speaker 1 (47:28):
Well, nothing she said was misinformation or vitriolic. And then
here's the punchline to this whole story, because you're like,
all right, so obviously Lisa here is just still a
very sore loser Jeene Stothard supporter, and so she just

(47:49):
gonna let mayor Ewing have it because she wanted stother
to be reelected instead. Ewing's in there, and she's just
gonna be on there, and if it's not this, it's
gonna be something else. This woman loves Jeene Stuther. Here's
a picture of Lisa in the building, posing smiling during
the campaign with John Ewing. She was a supporter of

(48:13):
his campaign. She's a Ewing fan, or at least she
wasn't a Stothard fan. She probably felt the same thing. Hey,
the sinkle just opened up fix it today.

Speaker 2 (48:24):
Well maybe he just got his feelings hurt. Then?

Speaker 1 (48:27):
Yeah, I thought you were my friend, Lisa. What happened
to us? So now I guess all the comments have
been deleted? You know what that smells like? Class action lawsuits?

Speaker 2 (48:43):
Ah, all of.

Speaker 1 (48:44):
Our First Amendment rights?

Speaker 3 (48:46):
How do you know I wasn't going to say something
I have? I know I can't.

Speaker 1 (48:50):
Know all of our First Amendment rights have been completely destroyed.
I want money class action lawsuit coming. So there's that story.
I went off on that so long. Oh, I almost
forgot what else was in that KFAB news update twenty

(49:11):
minutes ago. I wanted to respond to, Oh, I remember,
and I can tie that into something that's not going
to be happening this Friday night. That's all coming up next.

Speaker 4 (49:19):
Scott Voices News Radio eleven to KFAB.

Speaker 1 (49:24):
We're not going to play a football game Friday night
between Lincoln, which Lincoln Southwest and Omaha's one of the
fairly new high schools here in Omaha, Buena Vista High School.
It's so new there are some people that still don't
know how to pronounce the name of the high school.

(49:47):
It is Buena Vista.

Speaker 2 (49:48):
How can you cheer that?

Speaker 1 (49:50):
Ruh? Yeah, we have a crowd divided. You got the
Buena's and the Buna. It is wayna. Thisa high school.
This is sixtieth in l and they they're not having

(50:10):
a great football season. This is the second year that
this school has had all four grades in school. They've
not exactly had a time to build a program. Now
you can also say the same thing about the other
new high school, Omaha Westview. Westview has been a bit
better off when it comes to athletics. Buyenna Vista, not

(50:31):
so much. They're one in six this football season and
they had a game this Friday night against Lincoln Southwest.
Lincoln Southwest is a good team, but they're not like
Millard South where they've been beating opponents five thousand to
nothing and that's the halftime score. AnyWho Buyenna Vista just

(50:57):
forfeiteds varsity football game against Lincoln Southwest. Here's what the
school says, and I quote. The decision is based on
the number of students medically cleared to play and follows
a thoughtful discussion between our coaching staff and school administration.
We know this is disappointing for our student athletes, their families,

(51:20):
our competitors, and our school communities. Nothing is more important
to us than the health and well being of the
students we serve. Now, if this kind of thing weren't
happening every single week with us school deciding to forfeit
or quit at halftime over the last couple of years
when they're just getting drubbed or they know they're going

(51:41):
to get drilled in a football game, then I probably
wouldn't even call attention to it. And this isn't even
anything against Puayna Vista. This has happened with a handful
of schools that, while they may be Class A, we
now have a couple of different class as. We have
Class A one and Class A two. And until we

(52:03):
start scheduling the Class A ones or the high twos
against the low ones and actually putting together competitive football games,
this whole thing could not be more dumb. How do
we get to this point where well, first of all
is kids don't go to their neighborhood school. You have

(52:27):
active recruiting from not just schools within the same district,
but across school districts here in the Omaha learning community.
That's right, the learning community is once again to blame
and will be until they dissolve this horrible abomination that
has completely ruined so many of Omaha's schools, especially the

(52:48):
ones that they purported to want to save, the more
inner city schools. So you don't go to your neighborhood
school if you're a decent buddy of mine's kid played
for decent local football team, but he was being recruited
by one of the really good local football teams, and

(53:09):
they told this kid like, look you are. I think
they use the phrase, you're a Corvette in a junkyard
on this team. Come play for us. And this kid
did the rarest thing ever. He and his dad talked
about it, and it was decided these are the guys
I grew up with. We win together, we lose together.

(53:29):
I've been playing with these guys since Little League. This
is my school and I want to see it through
through graduation. There's a lot of dads right now going
that's the stupidest thing I ever heard. How are you
gonna go pro? How are you? How's your kid gonna
go pro? Let's get all the good kids on Millard
South or West Side? And now they're beating schools like

(53:53):
Buyenna Vista seventy seven to nothing. The third fourth string
players have been in for three and a half quarters
of this game. The star players who they show what
to the recruits, Hey, we can beat lesser teams. Look
at how good I am against lesser competition.

Speaker 2 (54:13):
What recruits are.

Speaker 1 (54:13):
Seeing anything in this? That whole thing is so dumb.
But there's also another dynamic here, and that's what's going
on with the kids? Football is hard. Practices are hard,
games are hard, Losing is hard. Winning takes effort and determination.

(54:33):
And you look at this going, well, I only wanted
to play football because I see some of these kids.
There's social media stars. Some of them get money. Yeah, hey, hey,
where school? I'm sure? But what happened to the non stars?
What happened to the kids that are like, I'm a
football player and I'm here for the team. This guy
is the star of the team, but only because I'm

(54:55):
blocking his backside on this one, not his rear end,
I mean, like his blind side. What happened to the
non stars that just football like we play football? Well,
football is hard. Weed is dope. You got more and
more kids vaping marijuana in middle school bathrooms. There's not

(55:21):
a lot of dope heads who are like, you know
what I want to do after school? What? Play video
games and eat chips all night? No football. It's the
heat index of one to ten out there, and I
want to coach to yell at me for the next
couple of hours. Let's go. They're not really interested in
doing that. Some of it is they look in the

(55:43):
stands of their football game they don't see their classmates
out there. Why because weed is dope, video games are fun,
and now apparently for young people, stabbing is apparently an option.
As we have another fourteen ten year old in police
custody charged with a stabbing and this will be second

(56:09):
degree murder charge because a thirty eight year old guy
in north mid Omaha, like sixty sixth and Emmett, which
is northeast but not northeast northeast. This was at eleven
o'clock Monday night. Fourteen year old stabbed to death a
thirty eight year old. I don't know if there is

(56:31):
a familiar relation or what the deal is here, but
fourteen year old now another one arrested for second degree
murder and use of a weapon to commit a felony.
Where does he go? We cam put him in jail.
He'll eventually end up going to a non secure juvenile
detention center right next to the other little scamps in

(56:53):
their murdering and stabbing and car stealing and assaulting, where
we don't have an room for all of them. Because oh,
there's not a problem with juvenile crime in this community.
So why can't people play football because they're in juvenile
detention is another reason we've got to get a handle

(57:14):
on what's going on here with athletics, because I want
people on a football team where you're going into Friday
night's game knowing you're going to get crushed. I played
high school football for Ralston. We played Central Millard North.
We knew we were going to get crushed. It never

(57:37):
came up. Hey, should we forfeit this one? Guys, if
they took a vote of the team, it would be
ninety nine point nine percent of the people who said
we're playing this game. I would have voted to forfeit
because I got hurt a lot because I'm not very big.
But everyone else on the everyone else on that team

(57:58):
would have said, football, this is what we do. It
builds character. Scars and chicks dig scars. Did you see
that we blew up another one the other day? Another
what story Venezuelan drug cartel. Oh, I tell you what

(58:21):
this president loves, blowing up Venezuelan drug cartels.

Speaker 2 (58:26):
Creating lots of cocaine sharks.

Speaker 1 (58:29):
Oh, I hadn't considered that. You know, these guys are
out there floating around with their greta tuneberg like flotilla
and they were apparently, you know. And by the way,
the last couple of small drug boats coming from South
America to America got the Trump treatment. So what made

(58:57):
anyone think this is the one that's going to get
through our little Venezuelan drug cartel boat? This is a
stealth boat. There's no way that they'll see us on this.
What were they thinking.

Speaker 2 (59:18):
It doesn't matter what they were thinking.

Speaker 3 (59:19):
You just keep doing the same thing that you want
to do, and you pay the consequences or you get
the boat.

Speaker 1 (59:27):
This one didn't even get close to America. Now, I
admit I know it was coming here. I can also
guess that there'll be a lot of people who continue
to say America probably shouldn't just be blowing up boats.
There's a process for this. And how do we know,
to Lucy's point, how do they know they were even
coming here? Maybe they were taking the drugs to Tonga,

(59:50):
you know, let the Tonga people, let Tonganese, let King
Tonga former professional wrestler, let them handle all of this.
We don't know where they were going. And maybe they
didn't have drugs. How do we even know? You blew
it all up? Trump's like, I will take that under
consideration as I continue to blow up Venezuelan drug boats. Now,

(01:00:18):
obviously Venezuela has been in the news here because the
Nobel Peace Prize people gave the Venezuelan opposition, who had
to go into hiding because the brutal Venezuelan dictator Maduro said, Hey,
there's a woman out there who's criticizing me. I want
you to delete her comments from my Facebook page and

(01:00:39):
then block her.

Speaker 4 (01:00:41):
Ah.

Speaker 1 (01:00:41):
Now that's how we do things in Omaha. In Venezuela,
they'll just find her and kill her. So the Nobel
Peace Prize people gave her the Nobel Peace Prize. I
don't know where they send it. She's in hiding. Maduro's like,
send it to me. I'll take it to her. What's
her addres, I'll find her. So they gave her the

(01:01:04):
Nobel Peace Prize. Maduro called her a demonic witch. And
then he still is fighting with the America Great Satan
and all the rest is stup. And so now here's
another six people accused of carrying drugs towards America. I

(01:01:25):
don't even think these guys got out of the docks. Now.
They had to wait till they were in international waters,
but they were just off the coast of Venezuela. Intelligence
confirmed the vessel was trafficking narcotics, was associated with narco
terrorist networks, and was on a known drug trafficking route.

(01:01:49):
They were in the drug trafficking lane. You got the
hov the carpool lane. You got, of course, the fast lane,
the passing lane, which obviously authorities say doesn't exist. Yeah,
well go out of my way. It does. Got the
slow lane over here, and you got the drug trafficking lane.
These guys are in the drug trafficking lane. I would

(01:02:11):
have loved to have heard how that conversation went. Mister President.
We've got some people here in a boat. We haven't
been able. There's still some conflicting reports as to whether
they are part of a narco terrorist network. And of
course there are a lot of people here. Many Democrats

(01:02:32):
say that you shouldn't just be blowing up these boats.
President Trump's like, all right, I'll take that under advisement.
Which button do I press? This one? All right? What else?
It's a busy, busy man. And there are some people
criticizing the president. Really, Scott tell us more, No, there

(01:02:57):
are some people who have voted for the press it
a couple of times, three times, and they are kind
of complaining, Hey, look I see what the president is
doing is foreign policy activity is off the charts right now.
We've got a new Middle East peace plan, we're now
working with a meeting with Zelenski of Ukraine, threats of

(01:03:21):
trade penalties on Spain and China, perhaps some activity in Argentina.
He's just blew up another drug boat off of Venezuela.
And there are some people going, look, I appreciate what
you're doing with Ukraine and Middle East, whatever is going

(01:03:43):
on with it. I didn't even know Argentina or Spain
was a thing. And of course the China tariff them okay,
But there doesn't seem to be a lot of maga
here in all of your activity that you're doing. Not
a lot to make America great again. Here. What's America
doing right now? What do we get for all this? Well,
inflation continues to cool, gas prices are falling, and maybe

(01:04:07):
you hadn't noticed, but Ice has been rounding up criminal,
illegal aliens and deporting them. There's something else that the
president did yesterday. He revoked visas for at least six
people because after Charlie Kirk died. We had some people

(01:04:32):
in the country on visas who made some pretty ugly
social media comments. For example, a German national on a
guest visa in this country said, when fascists died, Democrats
don't complain. Charlie Kirk's a fascist. Democrats shouldn't complain about it,

(01:04:55):
nor should they. Right, Democrats don't complain, nor should they.
That German national has his visa revoked by a Brazilian
national here in America on a guest visa, said Charlie
Kirk all caps, So you know he really means it.

(01:05:16):
Died too late. I could go on, but they got
like a half a dozen people who made similar comments
who are in this country on guest visas, And the
State Department just said the United States has no obligation
to host foreigners who wish death on Americans. Bye bye.

(01:05:41):
So these guys are getting bounced as well. These are
not criminal legal aliens. They're just a holes and we
don't need you here. Back to Germany with you. This
is yesterday, as the President posthumily posthumously awarded Charlie Kerkr
the nation's highest civilian honor, Medal of Freedom. And you

(01:06:07):
heard that live here on news radio eleven to ten kfab.
President also said that not only are these guys, but
here in America, we got the people here, American citizens,
making some pretty bad comments as well. I think they've
been calling out this guy who's running for attorney general

(01:06:28):
in Virginia who had said to a Republican colleague. This
is a Democrat who'd said to a Republican on text,
joking how he'd like to see his Republican counterpart shot
in the head, and to be okay if someone also
killed his family. He has small kids. Trump said, they

(01:06:51):
have the devil's ideology and they're failing, and they know it.
They're cowards. When you confront them, they immediately fold. I'm
not seeing a lot of folding. I'm seen folding by
judges as now. A judge, as I said yesterday, is
trying to get rid of this fence around ICE facility
in the Chicago area because people have been trying to

(01:07:12):
get in there and kill members of ICE. Homeland Security
now have said that there are gang members tied to
the Latin Kings Gang that have reportedly posted rooftop spotters
with firearms to track ICE movements, and they've got a

(01:07:32):
bounty system up to two thousand dollars for intel on
where ICE is going, and up to fifty thousand dollars
for assassinating senior ICE officials. And meanwhile, people in Chicago
and judges are like, ICE doesn't need all that security.
We don't need the National Guard here, they don't need

(01:07:54):
a fence up. They're fine. I don't know what their
problem is. Did the President say the devil's ideology? Unfortunately,
we can't bounce every single person who has it in
this country.
