That's when Glenn Beck comes on. 239-479-9-55-92 is the number here. That's 239-479-55-92. We would be remiss if we didn't start off the show today. I've been mentioning that U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham has died. Did it Saturday following a brief and sudden illness, they're calling it, at the age of 71. Graham's office posted on X. yesterday morning, the following post, on the evening of Saturday, July 11th, U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham passed away from a brief and sudden illness. Senator Graham's family appreciates prayers at this time and asks for privacy during this incredibly difficult period. A cause of death has not immediately been revealed, but there are reports that there was a cardiac event. I don't know what a cardiac event is. I should have asked my father-in-law. My father-in-law is a cardiologist. I should have asked him. But, Casey, there were actually some preliminary findings that came out that said that he had a dissected aortic valve, like his big artery ruptured. That's what I heard. Oh, well, you know, I'll go for you, man. We'll take that. That sounds horrible. I mean, that's what the preliminary findings said. I was following the story on Fox News and I saw that that had come up. So that had come, okay. Because I had originally thought he had come back from Ukraine. I thought that maybe somebody had poisoned him because it happened so quickly. I didn't want to play the like conspiracy card. But if you're going to Ukraine and you're supporting Volodymyr Zelensky and Graham was a huge supporter of Ukraine when it came down to that war.
And Vladimir Putin has a nasty habit of poisoning, everybody and murdering everybody who doesn't agree with him. I was wondering, did you get some bad food? Did something? That was my first thought, too. I didn't want to go with that, but that was my first thought, too. So, you know, Vladimir Putin killed him. Okay. But okay. So lots of fancy doctor words there. And either way, Lindsey Graham is dead. Officials performed. So officials performed CPR on the man as he went into cardiac arrest nearly a half an hour later and was rushed to George Washington University Hospital Graham. A staunch ally of President Trump was scheduled to appear on NBC News as Meet the Press yesterday morning. The senator had shown no signs of feeling unwell before his death. Again, I don't want to be the conspiracy guy, right? Because you don't want to do that. But... Is this something that could have been triggered by, you know, I don't, I don't know. I don't know. I don't want to do that. But I'm doing it. According to Trump on truth socially, he said Senator Lindsey Graham, one of the greatest people and senators I have ever known is dead with an exclamation point. He's dead. He was always working and was a true American patriot. Lindsay will be greatly missed. Trump said that funeral details and arrangement for Graham will be revealed in the coming days. I interviewed him a couple of times. When he first became a senator, I was working in Charleston, South Carolina. Always the nicest guy. Always thoughtful. Always willing to answer questions. You know, a lot of politicians are... What's the word? Scumbags. And when you try to ask them a question, they try and answer a question that you didn't ask. It's like, what about your support for this bill? Well, you know, I support being an American and being an American person and the American people deserve an American person. And they, like, dance around it. Senator Graham never, ever did that. So it was always great when I had got the chance to talk to him. His birthday was last Thursday. He had just turned 71 and had just returned to the U.S. after the trip to Ukraine, where he met with President Volodymyr Zelensky to discuss the ongoing war in Russia and drank a big bottle of water that was sent over by Vladimir Putin. Could that have anything? No, he didn't do that. I'm just saying. Volodymyr Zelensky hosted Graham on Friday, where the two had a really good meeting inside the presidential palace in Kiev. I am... I just wouldn't visit Ukraine. Russia is droning the crap out of that place because they don't know what to do about it. So maybe Graham is safe. Maybe politicians are safe when they go there. I did read something this morning. He had one of the lowest net worths in all of Congress. He was only worth like $1.5 million. And he had a... And he'd been there for years. He's been in the Senate since 2003. So what that tells me is that he wasn't terribly corrupt. He should have been following the Nancy Pelosi model. He'd have been a billionaire by now, just to, you know, have his wife do it. Have a family member do it because, you know, Nancy Pelosi didn't do anything. But either way, a net worth of $1.5 million. And...
The bulk of that was this $890,000 town home that he owned in the D.C. area. So he came from humble beginnings and he stuck with it. And if you ever have a politician whose net worth is in the bottom, I think it was the bottom 10% of members of Congress, you probably have a decent human being there. How many of those people like Bernie Sanders? You know, are sitting around in there and they create nothing. And they're making a hundred and whatever thousand dollars a year. And suddenly they're worth hundreds of millions of dollars, if not in some cases, billions of dollars. And they have never worked the private sector. Or certainly not when the money started rolling in. And you got Lindsey Graham. who was barely worth over a million dollars. Now, he had been a lawyer. He went into the Air Force, all sorts of things. Now, Trump went on to say, Lindsay was a, I'm sorry, this is Volodymyr Zelensky, I apologize. Lindsay was a true defender of freedom and the values that make our world safer. He visited Ukraine 10 times during the years of Russia's full-scale invasion and was here with our people when it was most needed, a staunch advocate for bipartisan and bicameral support for Ukraine in recent weeks. working on important initiatives that could help bring peace closer, including stronger sanctions against Russia. We will always be especially grateful for the recognition of our people and words of admiration for the courage of Ukraine's defenders, America and the world have lost a determined leader. And again, he repeats the guy who replaced Strom Thurman. When they finally wield Thurman's corpse out of the chambers, Thurman had actually been dead for 15 years, but nobody told him. And then they re-elected... They elected Lindsay, and he's been serving the U.S. Senate since 2003. He was a fierce critic of Iran and introduced several bills named that limiting the Islamic regime's nuclear capabilities and isolating the rogue nation. He was regularly an advocate for extending Trump's wartime powers as the U.S. negotiated a ceasefire with Iran in hopes of reopening the Strait of Hormuz while ensuring Iran doesn't rebuild its nuclear program. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu mourn Graham. death as Israel losing one of its greatest friends. It is sad. You know, the thing that's sad about this, I suppose, isn't, I mean, it's sad that we lost Lindsey Graham. It's sad when almost anybody dies. And I say almost anybody, because I don't think the world's going to mourn when Vladimir Putin dies. But it's sad when almost anybody dies. When you have someone who appears to be, A decent human being. I don't care Republican or Democrat. It doesn't matter to me. He appeared to be a decent human being. He appeared to be doing the job for all the right reasons. And again, you look at the fact that his wealth, his net worth was in the bottom 10th, I think, of both houses of Congress. He had a net worth of just over a million dollars between $1 million and $1.5 million. I bet the other senators and Congress people laughed at him.
Because he didn't, he wasn't, he wasn't playing the game right. He wasn't doing it right and he wasn't earning his money that all of the, most of the scumbug politicians go in there and try to earn. So I bet that's, he was ridiculed and bullied. But either way, you worry about what are we going to get? You had a decent politician. What kind of politician are we going to get who's going to come back into office? And suddenly their net worth is going to be in the tens of millions of dollars almost immediately. And we're going to forget that Lindsey Graham was ever there and just take it for what we always take it for. Just another politician getting rich off of our backs. All right, 239, 479, 5592 is the number. You want to chime in on that? When we come back, we're going to talk about a nurse who thinks she deserves a big pile of money. It's the job, babe. I'm Casey Bartholomew sitting in on daybreak with Jason Jay Jones on 925 Fox News, right all along. This is 925 Fox News. Right all along. 620.
All right. Ind25 Fox News right all along. Thanks for tuning in to Daybreak with Jason Jay Jones. My name is Casey Bartholome. I'm sitting in today. I'll be with you until 9 o'clock. Stick around after 9. That's when Glenn Beck comes in. Give us a call 239-479-5-92. That's 239-479-55-9592. This happened in Miami. A South Florida woman shared her nursing nightmare after a brutal attack on the job led to her becoming a patient herself. Janira Eguilliar. I don't know. You'd think with a name like Bartholome, I'd be able to read, but I'm a functioning illiterate. Eguilar is how I'm going to mispronounce that. She's a registered nurse at Jackson Memorial Hospital. She said she's still recovering. From the roughest day of her life. She said she was attacked by a patient within the hospital's brand new, $300 million emergency room. And she has bruises. She has bruises on her arm. Couple of bruises on her arm. That's the worst day of her life. She got a couple of bruises on her arm. She said, he started punching me. The patient attacked her. He started punching me in the back of my head. He punched me a total of three times. The worst day of her life was when she got punched a couple of times, which is bad, by the way. Nurses are unsung heroes. My mother-in-law was a nurse. So nurses are unsung heroes. And that's a bad day. But she's got bruises on her arms. And she got hit in the back of the head once. And that is the worst day of her life. She said, the patient allegedly went on a rampage and battered several medical employees. She says, he threw me to the ground. And I hit my head. Oh. So he didn't punch you at the back of the head. He threw the ground. What is the story? But she said, he threw me to the ground. I hit my head. Doctors and registration people and other coworkers were taking him off of me. They took me to have CT scans of my brain, my neck, my spine, my arms. CT scan of your arms? Yanira's attorney, Michael Peasy, said she's suing Jackson Memorial Hospital where she went from emergency room nurse. to emergency room patient gads. And again, there's pictures. She's got a couple of bruises on her arms and nothing else. And her lawyer, Michael Peavy, says, we're suing Jackson Memorial Hospital and Miami-Dade County for $5 million. A couple of bruises on your arms. That's five million. Can you imagine if she'd actually gotten hurt? Now bruises hurt sometimes for a couple of days. But they ain't worth $5 million. Somebody saw an opportunity here to get a big steaming pile of cash handed to them down in Miami. And they decided to go for it. I want to know if you think this is a nurse deserves any money.
Any money at all? Because $5 million is too much money to give anybody for a couple of bruises. I might worry in charge of things, and most days I think I should be. But I might think she should be entitled to maybe $100 Amazon gift card. How about that? No hard feelings. Cup of coffee. At Starbucks, something like that. The scumbag lawyer goes on to say Jackson Memorial Hospital did not provide any security whatsoever. Egwilar said, I didn't see security anywhere. Well. In her defense, she was getting punched in the arm and knocked over. So, I mean, you're probably not looking for security at that point. She says she loves her workplace, but it needs to do better at protecting staff and give her $5 million for having a couple of bruises on her arm. I wouldn't give $5 million to her if she broke her arm. Look, you work as a nurse. We're in an emergency room. I watched ER. Back in the day. So I'm kind of an expert on emergency rooms. It's a little bit. And if you work in an emergency room, you're kind of, I'm not saying it's deserved. I'm not saying you should expect it. But people are coming into an emergency room, especially someplace like Miami. They're coming into an emergency room. And, you know, they can be a little suspect. They can have problems. And you might get. damaged a little bit. It might get singed a little bit here and there. But a couple of bruises on your arm, $5 million again. Somebody got knocked over and probably punched in the arm a couple of times. I'm not saying that's good. I'm not saying nurses deserve to get punched. But there are $5 million because something bad happened to him. This is representative of what's wrong with our country right now. I work in a dangerous place and oh my God, I got hurt. That means somebody needs to give me $5 million because if I don't have $5 million, I won't be able to work ever again. And this is the mindset that something bad happened to me. So that means somebody owes me a big pile of cash. A spokesperson for Jackson Memorial Hospital issued a statement on the matter that reads in part at Jackson Health System, the safety and well-being of everyone who enters our facilities, patients, visitors, employees is the highest priority. We are aware of the claim and will not comment because of the legislation. Robin Wienew. Again, I can't read. The alleged attacker and emergency patient who had been Baker acted due to mental health concerns faces a felony battery charge in case you didn't know. Somebody who's been Baker acted means they have either voluntarily or involuntarily been temporarily detained for a mental health evaluation. It's not a criminal arrest, but it's a medical procedure intended to protect individuals from harming themselves. Police told the victims an official will be in contact with them to discuss the case, but they didn't give their home number.
They gave the hospital numbers, so they couldn't be in contact. And the hospital does, in fact, provide security there. A JMH spokesperson issued an additional statement that reads, we have four dedicated Jackson Public Safety Specialists assigned to Jackson Memorial. Emergency room 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including the date of this incident. In addition, we have two off-duty Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office deputies on campus at all times. But the nurse, and again, it's bad. The nurse got punched in the arm a couple of times. And because something bad happened to her and because this is the United States of America, she went out and got herself a lawyer. I'm inclined to think the lawyer probably was standing around. I just finished chasing an ambulance and saw what happened, decided to jump in. And now this woman thinks because she got a couple of bruises at work, she deserves $5 million. What do you think? 239, 47, 9592. It's like the McDonald's hot coffee thing all over again. We'll take your phone calls and get into Iran coming up. My name is Casey Bartholomew. It is 628. And you're listening to 925 Fox News. We're right all along. We crossed an ocean, then a continent, then space. Where will we go next? Happy 250th America from 925, Fox News.
637-925 Fox News right all along. Thanks for tuning into the daybreak with Jason Jay Jones. My name is Casey Bartholomew. I am sitting in today. I'll be with you until 9 when Glembert comes on. Give us a call 239-479-55-92. That's 239-47-9-55-92. We are really bad at cease-firing. Iran is really bad at cease-firing, so we just decided to stop. And I agree with the idea of just bombing Iran back to the Stone Age. The U.S. unleashed its military might on Iran after the regime attacked a commercial vessel and declared the Strait of Hormuz closed on Saturday. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth posted on X. Iran made a poor choice. Now they pay. U.S. forces pounded the Islamic Republic late Saturday, striking 140 targets, including missile and drone sites. Why were we always taken out their missile and drone sites? I don't like the way this whole war has gone down. I don't have any problem with the war, right? If Iran had gotten a nuclear weapon, they would have used a nuclear weapon. They would either launch it into Israel or they would have given it to Hamas or one of their other satellite organizations as a dirty bomb dropped some place, carried some length, like a suitcase bomb carried someplace and used it. They absolutely would have because Iran sucks. And they have no worries about literally destroying their enemies. So I am 100% in support of going in there and forbidding them from ever having any type of nuclear weapon ever because they should not have any type of nuclear weapon ever. So I don't mind doing that. But what I don't like is that they still have missile and drone sites? Let's solve the problem today. Let's take out every missile and drone site that we know about. And when we find out about more, we'll take those out too. They aren't allowed to have boom booms. They're going to become a peaceful nation. If we have to force it on them with bombs, they have to become a peaceful nation. Over 300 targets inside Iran have now been hit since the regime first violated the fragile ceasefire by launching missiles at the commercial ships traversing. The Strait of Hormuz on July 6th. Again, U.S. forces pounded 140 targets, including missile and drone sites, naval assets, ammunition storage facilities, communication networks, and surveillance locations. This is what the United States Central Command said in a statement. Let's take them all out. Let's blow every, look, we're in. You always tell people, I don't care what you think about the war.
I know most people who are not in favor of the war just hate Trump. That's all it is. And we all know if Joe Biden had done this, everybody who got, oh, he's very, very strategic Joe is. Well, he's not. The people around him who make the decisions and feed him his mush are. But everybody would be in favor of it if it were Biden. But since it's Trump, we're against it, doesn't matter. We're there now. We're here. We need to do it, and we need to do it all good. They need to go boom, boom, all over the place. And that means taking out every missile site that we know about, every drone site that we know about, every naval asset, every ammunition storage facility, and every communication and surveillance location that we know about needs to go bye-bye. That's the way it is. And I especially feel that way now, by the way, because they are trying to assassinate our president. I don't care who our president is. I wouldn't want them assassinating Joe Biden. And he was the worst. He was awful. But if a foreign country, if a rogue nation decides that they want to assassinate our president, then we need to take them all out. Bombs everywhere. Everybody who was carrying that giant flag that said, kill Trump or whatever it said. I thought it was nice of them, by the way. I like to give credit where credit is due. I thought it was nice of the Iranians to put that kill Trump, whatever they said, about Trump. I thought it was nice of them to put it in English. Because a lot of times they're carrying their death to America signs and everything. And they're in Arabic or Farsi or whatever they speak there. And I don't know what they're saying. So I can't get insulted because to me it just looks like squiggles. So again, I think we got to give them a shout out for at least putting it in English. Now that we know they want to murder our president, we need to bomb everybody who is holding the flag, everybody who was near the flag, everybody who considered themselves a leader of Iran, we need to bomb them all over the place. Ever since the ceasefire has been going on, which apparently no longer is going on, but ever since the ceasefire was going on, they kept bombing. We would bomb back because all of us are really bad at ceasefires. So let's not have one. Let's just keep bombing them until they give. Let's start at the strait and carpet bomb the whole thing back. We'll take over the straight. We'll annex part of Iran right there, like Puerto Rico. Well, there's American territory now. Suck it. And then we'll run the straight, which will piss off China and Russia. But who cares? They're always mad anyway. It's like their underwear is too tight constantly, and we have to deal with that. Now, the strikes were launched after a round's powerful Revolutionary Guard Corps, the IRGC. The Navy attacked the MVGFS galaxy, a Cyprus-flad container ship, and declared the crucial waterway closed. And then we said, is it? Is it really closed? Here, try this, and then we bombed them.
The U.S. vowed Iran also targeted other ships navigating the strait, and the U.S. shot down several drones, according to official. The U.S. vowed that Tehran would pay a heavy cost and said the retaliation, which began at 7.15 p.m. Eastern on Saturday was being carried out under the direction of the commander-in-chief President Donald Trump. Let's be honest, Trump doesn't bomb there, bit them there, bomb there. He just says they bring him plans. He says, yeah, go ahead and do that. But CENTCOM said in a statement on X, Iran was provided yet another opportunity to demonstrate adherence to the memorandum of understanding. After being held accountable for early attacks on commercial vessels but has again failed. And they did fail. And they're going to continue to fail. And they hate us and they suck. And let's bomb more. I don't care if we put any troops on the ground. I hope we don't. I wouldn't matter if we'd tell you what is that, Karg Island? I think. Limited attention spans, I don't remember. I wouldn't mind if we took that over and choked them. But we don't need to put troops on the ground. Let's just keep dropping bombs on them. Take out every strategic military drone, storage, surveillance site, everything they have. Take it out. As soon as we know where it is, bomb it. We don't know where one is. As soon as we learn about it, bomb it. I don't know why we're not doing that. I really should be in charge of the war. I mean, I could take care of the decisions before breakfast and then just be on my way with the rest of the day. I don't think Iranian people would like that, but that's their problem. They're being bombed. What are they can worry about me? Explosions were heard in the southern Iranian coastal cities of Boucher Chabahar. I don't know. Boy, they spell their words funny. Azulua and all of this was early Sunday. Iranian state media claimed the military buildings were hit in the Boucher strikes and a military site in Dyer. D-E-Y-R was also hit. There are also strikes in the city of Elena Kagan, which is near around's vital South Pars oil and gas field and in Jask. Additional strikes were reported deeper inside Iran, including the city of Kermon, which is 300 miles away from the coast. The regime responded to the fierce U.S. retaliation by launching a wave of attacks on multiple U.S. allies in the region. The UAE's air defenses, the UAE ministry said this on Saturday. The UAE's air defenses are currently engaging with missile attacks and incoming drones from Iran. Jim Jordan's Prince Hassan Air Force Base was also targeted by numerous ballistic missiles, according to the Iranian state media. So that's a problem with the Iranian state media. Do we know? Are they telling the truth? Nobody knows. Because they lie. Like liars.
Because they are liars. It's all PR in the Middle East to try to make it sound like they're fighting the good fight against the evil American imperialists, whatever. Now, the IRGC claimed to have destroyed a command and control center and several drone storage facilities at the base in Jim Jordan. In addition, Qatar's air defense intercepted a missile attack. The Ministry of Defense posted on X. Iran had earlier warned that U.S. strikes would be met with a severe... fear response and that new enemy bases in the Middle East would be targeted. You go get them, mighty mouse. Anytime around issues a statement, it's like when my son was a little guy, you know, just tossle his hair and go, you're a good guy. You're a good warmonger. You go get him like that. No, that's never good. You mean, you know anything getting blown up, but I have no issue with bombing Iran. I have no issue with carpet bombing Iran. I have no, I've zero issue with the bombing Iran constantly. I don't care if we ever put a boot on the ground. We'll just keep putting bombs on the ground and drones in the air. And eventually they'll give in. Eventually they'll give up because no matter what, they, A, cannot threaten to murder our president. And they can never, ever, ever, ever have any kind of nuclear weapon. That's all there is to it. 239-479-95-92. The Mega Minute. Coming up next, I'm Casey Bartholome. You in for Jason Jay Jones on 92-5 Fox News right all along. The Maga Minute on 92-5 Fox News is presented by Provident Jewelry. Find them online at providentjewelry.com.
6.53.952.5 Fox News right all along. Thanks for tuning in to daybreak with Jason Jay Jones. My name is Casey Bartholome. I am sitting in today. I'll be with you until 9 o'clock. Stick around after 9. That is when Glenn Beck comes on. 239, 479.5592 is the number here. And at 653, it is time for the maga minute. Go ahead and play that. I was assured that things would be ready. There we go. Nothing? Nothing. I got nothing? I think would be great, but I don't want to say it now because it's too soon with Lindsay. I don't want to even talk about anybody, but I do have somebody that I think is really good. The governor is a good friend of mine. I've endorsed him. I endorsed him early on, and he endorsed me right from the beginning as a person that never did this before. In 2016, he came out and very strongly endorsed me, and then I made up for it. I removed somebody from office that I didn't think was so good. moved her over to the United Nations. But I did it because Henry McMaster was a lieutenant governor. And by moving her, I got myself a great, really a great guy. Henry McMaster has been a really good governor, really good guy. And Henry's been a great governor. You know, now he's termed out. But he's going to do the right thing. I think Henry will be fantastic. Remember, he endorsed me out of nowhere. He said, I like that guy the best. And he campaigned for me with his wife with Peg. I'd say, who is that man that campaigning all the time? I hardly knew him. They said, that's the lieutenant governor. So they have a great governor, and he's going to make a good decision. But ultimately, it's going to be an election pretty soon. There you go. That was the Maga Minute Donald Trump reacting. And he was actually on that cut came from Meet the Press on NBC. That's what happened yesterday. And Lindsey Graham was actually scheduled to go on Meet the Press yesterday. And so Trump went on and reacted to that and talked about really who they're going to put there. He said he had somebody in mind. I'll be honest with you. I lived in South Carolina for a while. I lived there when Mark Sanford was governor. I was aware of Nikki Haley. He took some veiled, not too thinly veiled shots at Nikki Haley there without mentioning her by name. I actually don't think it would be bad to have Nikki Haley as a senator. I know a lot of people like her because she ran against Trump in 2024, but let's not forget, Ron DeSantis also ran against Trump. Lindsey Graham also ran against Donald Trump. So that shouldn't be a sin that keeps you from holding higher office, just running against Donald Trump. I don't think it would be a bad idea to have Nikki Haley there. She's a woman.
She is a Republican, and anytime we get a female Republican holding higher office, I don't think that that's a bad thing. I actually wouldn't have a problem if Nikki Haley got the nomination for a president in 2028. It's not going to happen, but I wouldn't have a problem with that if it came to pass. But either way, Trump was talking. He says he has somebody in mind, but like I said, I lived in South Carolina for a while, and I don't. know of anybody at the moment that might be sitting in the wings, maybe Henry McMaster, but they have to have a special election and they have to put somebody in place. Henry McMaster is term limited, so he will be gone. So it may be a situation, I don't know who they're going to put there. It may be a situation where he appoints somebody with the idea that they were absolutely not. run when the special election comes up because they do have to have a special election. They do have to have it in a couple of days. Isn't it funny, by the way? I mean, the guy dies. And the Republicans all get together and they figure out a way to have a quick primary and get the nominee who can put on the ballot. Whereas when old Joe backed out of being the presidential election, they did not have the first clue what to do. And the last thing that we want, the absolute last thing that we want as a political party is to get, and I don't know who she would be. or they would be, whatever, is to get the Republican version of Kamala Harris out there and just anoint somebody that we know is not going to win, but makes the entire party look stupid, which is exactly what Kamala Harris did. So it's going to be interesting to see, and we're going to probably hear that relatively soon because I've got somebody in there. and then they'll have the special election, and then everything will come down from there. So there's going to be a lot happening in South Carolina in the coming days. So it'll be a good thing to pay attention to. When we come back, should political candidates be forced to debate their opponents? We'll talk about that. I'm Casey Bartholomew in for Jason Jay Jones on daybreak on 925 Fox News, where we are right all along.
