You know, a lot of people think if they've done well financially, retirement should be simple. But the reality is today is more complex than ever.

It is six minutes after 7 o'clock kicking off the second hour at daybreak here. I'm your host Jason Jay Jones along with producer Rob. Today we are discussing the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court ruling that came out. The Supreme Court rulings that you will have to come. And here is Fox News on the ruling. A divided Supreme Court opinion upholds a Mississippi state law, allowing late arriving ballots postmarked by Election Day to still be counted. President Trump calls the ruling surprising, adding it makes the Save America Act more important. That was a ruling that was, I think it was very detrimental to honest elections. But it is what it is. The Save America Act would restrict the use of mail-in ballots while adding proof of citizenship and voter ID requirements for voters. A handful of Senate Republicans opposed the measure arguing against the limits for vote-by-mail options and concerns over federal overreach. At the White House, Jared Halpern, Fox News. The vote-by-mail is a thorn in my side. You know, I think there should be a deadline to vote by mail. And I think that, you know, if you're going to do mail-in ballots, as we call them in Florida, absentee ballots, I think is what we call. Well, mail-in ballots and absentee ballots are two very different things. Right. We don't, yeah, explain the two. Go ahead. So mail-in ballot is generally done by request. An absentee ballot is for somebody who is maybe out of state or out of the country and needs an opportunity to vote in the election. Right. So. Mail-in ballots should have a deadline that's strict, but I think the deadline for mail-in ballots should not be election day. I think it should be like three days before election day. And the reason I believe that is that way you can have that integrity, that trust in the system. You know, Samuel Alito basically said it best when he said the longer accounting goes on, the more opportunity there is for doubt and accusations of unfairness. And that's where the Save America act, like we just got done talking.

3:22

talking about and that's where this ruling really boils down to you know we've got to get election integrity we are the only country in the world with well modern country in the world with an election system that doesn't require you do prove who you are Which is absurd anyways. But the dissenters, obviously, Samuel Alito, leading the dissent opinion, argued that this essentially is an extension of election day and that it undermines the electorate's choice on the actual day. And, of course, as you had just said, Jason, risks eroding the confidence of the public. Right. And if it continues to erode the confidence of the public and then you know what you get? You know what the unintended consequences of that? Yeah, people don't show up to elections because they think they don't matter. And that is what is just the narrative that the Supreme Court just pushed to the world, that your vote, you know, well, there's no trust into it. Listen, 80% of America want there to be voter ID. If 80% of America wants voter ID, that means 80% of America wants voter integrity. They want their election integrity. They want all of it to be above water on the level. And when you have something that's not, you get people. And I know, and I already, we, my, I've got two family members that are in that boat right now. Is my vote even going to get? Does it even matter? They're not even doing what I'm voting for them to do. So why should I vote for them? Because they are not. They're not delivering on all of their promises. They're not killing the filibuster to get the Save America Act done in other common sense measures. Of course, they've lost confidence in the party and the institutions. And of the process. And they don't believe that they're going to matter. And by putting that narrative out so close to the midterms, by this ruling enhances that narrative. This ruling makes that narrative a little bit louder. And this ruling is a bad thing to come so close to midterms as voter turnout for midterms is somewhere in this county and Lee County in the 50 percentile. Like it looked like 58 maybe, 60 if you're lucky. And that is of all the registered voters from Lee County that will go. And notoriously, it's like that everywhere. It's not just here. And when that happens, you now take the 60% you could eroded down to 45%. Now less than half of your voters are making decisions on some races. Like, for example, in Lee County and in Carrier County, you have county commissioner races that end on August 18th. Now here's the crazy part. You think voter turnout is low during the midterms in November? Wait until you see how low they are in August.

6:15

It's crazy how many don't come out for the primary. So when this narrative hits and these justices go out against and say mail-in ballots are fine and you have states like California who allows, I don't know, 94 days for you to mail-in your ballots, and then there's an integrity issue. There's a trust issue. You want to believe your vote counts. You want to believe the person you elect is going to do the things that came out of their mouth. And there's a cross between all of that. And that trust factor is an issue, Rob. It is. And they've again not done a good job. of living up to their promises anyways. And erosion in the system has been occurring for a long time now. You know, I would even argue as far back as the election in 2000 in Florida was maybe the start of that. But I think really where this started to happen, maybe the origin of TDS was in 2016 when Hillary Clinton lost and the Democrats were the first ones to cry stolen election. Then 2020, obviously. People will have their own conclusions as to what happened there. But, I mean, every single election that we do just has continued to erode the trust of the public in it. Now, I still advocate that states should have the right to manage their elections. And they do. And they do. So how do you tackle this issue on a federal level? If you can't get it done with the SAVE Act, then we've got to find another strategy to combat the left. You, it's... You took me down a wild thought in your monologue there. And I'm, you know, the election integrity and trusting what your vote matters, right, is going to be something that we may never be able to fix until you put some people in office that. aren't your standard candidates you want to pick people right now in my own honest opinion that aren't politicians you want to find some people real people now they might be current politicians that are real people there are a few of those But there's just so much that we need to get done and it's not getting done. And politics is becoming bigger than the will of American people. Whether or not you're going to do what the other party wants you to do has become the issue. Not doing what's right for the American people, what American people want. And that has become an issue not just on the left, but on the right as well. So what are some of the other Supreme Court rulings we should be expecting, Jason? Today you got birthright citizenship. We talked about that one. Also coming up inside the Supreme Court rulings today, you also have boys and girls' sports and whether or not they're going to rule on that. Now, I'm looking forward to that ruling. They rule on that. Yeah. I think they do too. I think they side properly on that.

9:05

I don't think they will on birthright citizenship. No. And there's a lot out there when it comes to that particular conversation because of when it comes to the Supreme Court, because there's the way that they're presenting it, the way their oral arguments are going, it sounds to the means that birthright citizenship will not be, the executive order will get overturned by President Trump. And if you don't know what the real argument is, let me tell you. President Trump has put an executive order in saying the birthright citizenship inside the U.S. Constitution should require one of the parents to be a U.S. resident, a legal U.S. resident. That way you don't have tourists coming over here, having a baby on American ground, and now that baby has, you know, U.S. citizenship. I don't think that's above too much to ask for. It's not like he's saying both parents. We're ending birthright. He's found a way to try to throttle this birth tourism that's going on because birth tourism is why he is doing this. You're never going to stop that birth tourism either until you start cracking down on things like birthright citizenship. So while I do believe that with you, Jason, the Supreme Court had ruled wrong or will rule wrong on this, it's going to be an interesting day nonetheless. Oh. How about we talk gubernatorial elections next? Plus, phone lines open 239-479-579-5592. That's 239-479-55-9-2. More daybreak coming up. Live, laugh, yell. You're yelling through me, not at me, right? program mornings at nine after daybreak with jason Jay Jones on 92 five fox news

11:10

This is daybreak on 92-5 Fox News right all along. As we're talking Constitution, let's talk Florida Constitution. The Florida Constitution says that run for governor, you must be a Florida resident for seven years. And now there is a lawsuit filed by Lieutenant Governor Jay Collins and your gubernatorial candidate, Jay Collins, against the gubernatorial candidate James Fishback. They're saying that James Fishback has not been here seven years. He said he's registered to vote in Washington, D.C., received D.C. Homestead tax deduction and signed mortgage documents listing D.C. property as his primary resident between 2020 and 2006. Fishback denies the claims that says he's always been a Florida resident. He's accused Susan Collins of filing the challenge on or filing the challenge on behalf of another candidate, Byron Donalds's, which is not true. I don't believe Byron and Jay are working in cahoots. Jay has demanded a debate from Biden. many, many times. And this is not a political hit job. When you hear a candidate say this is a political attack, this is not true, when the easy question would be cool, let's take it to court. When I approve that I'm right and you're wrong. You're going to feel really bad about your accusations. You'll have to do a retraction, and then I'm going to sue you for losing in the election. That's what you would say. If you had confidence that you did not, that you are actually a Florida resident. Fishback's a plant. Fishback is somebody who I, listen, I don't like to do this. This is not something I like to do. Fishback is not a legitimate candidate. No, I don't think so. And I believe actually what Jay Collins is doing here is adding legitimacy to his candidacy by just keeping him in the news, bringing him in the headlines, filing the lawsuit. James Fishback is burying himself. You don't have to file a lawsuit. for James Fishback to lose this race. Everybody is pretty much made up their mind that he's not the guy. Here, here, here, not everywhere. I know. Not everywhere. I don't believe he pulls well in Tampa. He may pull well in Tampa and he may pull well in Orlando. But that should be a red flagdust that, oh, maybe, just maybe he might be a rhino. Right. A Republican in name only. Maybe. I don't know. You know, my question is, is why is he not backed out or why hasn't somebody demanded it? I mean, there's so much, so much. I mean, you can stack this guy up with so much dirt I could spend a one hour. He straight up to us on this program. On his first ever interview running for governor was on this program. Just so you know, the first one. Matter of fact, we should reshare that coming up later on. We should get that back up so people can hear it again.

14:02

I think it's important to people hear the lie. They came out of his mouth within the first... day of him announcing that he's going to run for governor of Florida. And then you put that lie in with the only fans lie or the tender lie. I don't know which one. It's really weird when you are a candidate, a conservative candidate for governor and you're saying things like OnlyFans and Tender. It's just wild. Yeah, he had a very weird approach to his campaign. Married somebody three months later. It's so not what conservatives believe in. And he said, He's a conservative. Some of the things he says or some of the ways he acts is very socialist. You think? And I think he is a, like you said, a rhino in sheep's clothing. And I just don't. Or like you said, he's a plant. And he's here to disrupt the race. He's here to dilute the results. Is there a fishback supporter in our audience right now? Oh, I bet you there's a couple of them. Really? I think there are. You think they'll call in and tell me they are? I don't know if they'll call in, but I'm pretty. They might text us. They might text us. But I think our audience does have a few fishback fans. I don't think so. I think the only person of the sports fishback is himself. I don't even think his new wife likes some. 239-479-9-5-952. That's 239. And Rob brings up a valid point in the middle of this argument. The fact that... This lawsuit gives him credibility within the election. You're just keeping him in the news. But if you don't keep him in the news, he keeps himself in the news. And if you could remove him from the voter polls, that's even better. But when he keeps himself in the news, he does stupid stuff like a stupid person. Like giving out Byron Donalds's personal cell phone number? He'll sink himself. He's been seeking himself for months. Do you know what that reminds me of when you give out your opponent's cell phone number? It's when like a girl in high school got really mad at you and she gave out your phone number or wrote it on the bathroom wall or found a way to make your phone become so annoying that you didn't want to answer anymore. Yeah, yeah. That's what that was. High school girlish. Another reason you can't vote for him. Not high school boyish. That's high school girlish. He took it and wrote it on the bathroom mall. That's exactly what he did. We won't get one that calls in. They may text him, but text people are keyboard warriors. I'd love to see somebody call in and be like, yeah, James Fishbeck is my guy. That's my guy. The dude right there with the very scrawny looking face. I mean, this guy is horrendous.

16:40

I don't even like him. I don't even believe that way. I can't even believe this guy is open for discussions as a potential person to lead our state anywhere. Yeah, it's like another Andrew Gillum. It's like another guy that looks like a train wreck waiting to happen that if given the power of the state, would probably burn it to the ground. And it comes to prove that, yes, the socialist movement is taken over the Democrats and they have some wild candidates. But so do the conservatives. There is a movement of... That fringe extreme right. Yeah, the fringe extreme right or the fringe... Middle, middle left, middle left. Yes, I'm a conservative that leans middle left. You're what? How does that work? Explain that one to me. Because that's their angle. That's where they go with a lot of things. They try to say that, you know, the people want this. This is what the people want. You know, the people, the people. Fishback's a plant. Fishback is horrible. We got to get rid of this guy from the voter rolls. I'm going to stand with Jay Collins on this one. I hope that he gets this lawsuit done. I think just in black and white, when you go and you deny it, that means you're guilty. You get in front of it and say, prove it. Let's take it to court. See, I think Jay Collins is wasting recent. sources. And maybe this is just a way to get his name in the news too and put him front and center saying like, look, I don't like this guy either. Oh, no. And this is a battle of second place. Somebody's got to become the person who's actually second place. And those polls are spread out in every county. Sometimes it's fishback. Sometimes it's Susan Collins. It's always Byron number one. So it's a battle for second place. Who can be the viable contender against Byron reaching into the August 18th trial? They can't get that or a trial. August 8th, it's a trial. It's a trial. You're guilty. That's how it is a trial by fire. We better go to the vote. We better go get our vote on. It will. This election is every day just appears to be more and more important and decisive. And more important that you understand that August 18th. What do you think, Raj? Okay, cool. Love you, bro. We'll get to it. More Daybreak coming up next on 92-5 Fox News. She's like, I've got to get my microphone ready, bro. My mic fell off.

19:08

We tried taking a break from roasting Democrats, but then Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez opened her mouth again and reminded us. We have a job to do. 92-5 Fox News. Welcome back to 92-5 Fox News. You're listening to, you're listening to Daybreak. And watching. Yeah, and watching on Southwest Florida CW. If you don't know that, I'm your host, Jason Jay Jones, along with producer Robin. Yes, you can now watch us each and every morning on Southwest Florida CW. So don't miss an opportunity to not only hear us, but now you can watch us as well. So I'm going to start by saying that this is a wildly, quickly growing community that we live in. Southwest Florida has exploded in growth and has for decades now, and it continues to explode in growth. And... In the process of that, you have a lot of builders that come here and they invest. And what the county commission decides on really makes it different to them. Land use, density, impact fees, infrastructure. It all has a direct tie to these builders. So these builders are going to invest into the campaigns. There's no way to stop a builder from donating to the campaign because they want to believe that who the person they donate to will do great things for them once they're elected. They probably had a conversation with them and they said something like to the matter of I'm all for builders and not for no impact fees. Yes, development deals. You know, maybe that's what you said. That's Tris Petroski. She's running for county commissioner in Lee County against Amanda Cochran, somebody who I know, I'm supposed to say that now, according to the Petrosky campaign. And in the process of that... There has been a half a million dollars raised so far between the sitting commissioners, all from PACs and developers. Yeah. And that's a half a million dollars from PACs, political action committees, if you don't know what those are. And these PACs are usually owned by a candidate, but... operated or by an elected official or a candidate, but usually operated by a PAC operator. These donations from the builders, it's not unheard of. Here's the question you have to ask yourself before going to the August 18th ballot.

21:46

Who do you trust to not do the bidding of the builder, but do the building of the residents? Protect the existing residents and make smart decisions on growth, not just on donations. Who will make that decision? That's what you have to think about before going to the ballot. I'm not here to tell you who to vote for. I'm here to tell you what I do know. I do know that there are a lot of PACs. builder and out-of-state donations on Petrosky side, not so many, if any, when it comes to on Amanda Cochran side. Amanda Cochran's campaign was funded a lot by her own money when she started. Okay. Now. This is packs and developers bankrolling the Lee Commission races now to the tune of over half a million dollars. Okay. You know, this is a classic special interest play. And this is, I think, exactly the reason why we should be talking about impact fees. Because if property tax revenue is going to drop and our budgets have to get tighter, we've got to find a way to be able to continue the growth in Lee and Collier counties as well as support that infrastructure. And conservatives should be pulling for. Full transparency here as Petrosky alone pulled from 18 different packs, 18 packs contributed to Trish Petrosky's campaign. One option she said, by the way, she's not looking at it. Impact fees. The county's had deeply discounted impact fees for almost 20 years, leaving millions of dollars on the table for developers' pockets instead of having them build the infrastructure and development deals. Petroski instead talked about the deals with developers that called for them to build the needed infrastructure. She even spoke of a road being built by the massive and controversial Kingston development in Southeast Lee. She is... tone deaf to what the actual voter needs. And she's not alone on the tone deafness. There's a lot of them out there, a ton of them, that aren't realizing that you were appointed by Ron DeSantis. You were. And I certainly hope that you're making great decisions based on the voters. But I don't believe you were prepared properly for this job. I don't even think she's quite ready for the job in what I saw. She won't even come in here and talk to us. I really wish you would. I do too. I would love to hear from her. I don't want to say, like this is what I said when I started this entire thing. You have to understand who do you trust to take these donations and do the bidding of the resident, not the bidding of the builder. That's what you have to think about. You also have to understand that this race is decided on August 18th. So if you think you're a past. a voter and you're just not going to go vote in the primary because the generals what matters in November you're wrong it does matter here and everyone must get out and vote and you want a prediction uh sure this vote this this race will be decided on the number of mail-in ballots only it'll be the thing that throws it over you want to bet on it

24:53

I actually am thinking you might win that one. I don't want to lose 20 bucks. Right. It's the one thing I always say about, man, when I ran for office, right, when I ran for office and I got, you know, and I dealt with what I'm doing now. Like a lot of people came right at me. You know what I'm saying? People, news, came right at me. You know, and you got to face the music. But when you run these campaigns, you've got to be prepared for the campaign. You've got to know the answers that you've got to answer. You've got to know how to say it. You've got to be ready for the job. And when you get appointed to the job, it's even much more important for you to know the talking points, know how to combat every angle that your opponent might throw at you. And I didn't feel that at that debate. And I think it's time to make this perfectly clear. An appointment does not mean that you are the best person for the job. You know. The appointment process is flawed. I've always, I'm curious where it will go when Byron Donalds becomes the governor and where that goes. But I have thought the appointment process has been flawed for years. You know, according to the Cochrane campaign that nobody was actually contacted and she applied and had over 100 people recommend her for the appointment, but she was never even interviewed for the appointment. Well, aren't most of the... problems and friction that we're experiencing in the conservative movement at the hands of appointed officials, judges, bureaucrats. I was just talking about one of the commercials. You know, judges are ghosts. Nobody knows who they are. But everyone knows who these people are. You can see them that you can go to one of their many forums. And I encourage you to be very... observant about exactly what you got going on. And I think you got another chance to see him. Hold on. Let's get to this right now. Chris, good morning. Chris Comerati, you got something going on tonight. Let's talk about the event you got going on tonight because you said they were both going to be there. Good morning, Jason. Yes. At the Cape Corps Republican Club, you can still make reservations. Just go to the website. And there's going to be Amanda Cockett for 10 minutes and Trist Petroski for 10 minutes. Also, Paul Renner will be speaking after that. Wow. And what time does that take place? The meeting starts at 630. It's at Cape Cabaret. All the people work are just got to go make a reservation. There's plenty of seats. If you guys want to check it out, check it out. But you'll get to hear from these candidates firsthand. They have 10 minutes each to speak without being back and forth to each other. They're going to ask a couple of questions, and we're going to make it official that these guys could talk. You could actually see these people, hear these people, and make your own decision. And talk to them afterwards. If you have a more direct question that you want to get more. Maybe you don't want to ask a question in front of the whole crowd. You can afterwards, you can approach each one of these candidates and talk to them about their issues and make a solid decision about who you think on August 18th will become your lead county commissioner. I mean, it's 49 days. 49 days. Wow. It's creeping up. It is. It's so fast. So fast. I appreciate you, Chris. Thank you very much. Hopefully I might be able to get out there tonight and see you, buddy. I do. By the way, I've got something for you.

28:06

I have a gift for you. Thank you. I'll bring it to you tonight. All right. Bye. All right. There we go. That was fun. Because he made that wood thing for us. He always does great things for us. Now I've got to get for him. Yeah, that one's in the boss's office. It's really cool. I'm not telling him, though. I'm not telling him. I'm not telling him. He has to wait to find out what it is and be a part of it. But this race is a big one. There are many races that are big ones and that are going to be decided on August 18th. All nonpartisan races that get 51% are decided. So if you get 51% of the vote, it's also decided August 18th. And you have to be very. much the educated voter and don't wait to the last minute because talking points change. Things get covered up and you can't find out what actually went down because there is, and when it comes to Petroski campaign, she just faced scrutiny for the fact that she put the wrong zip code on her election papers that she signed up to run for election right. And then she did not, she first called it, you know, it was. Somebody did this. Somebody fake. This is fake. This is propaganda. Coming after me. Well, she's retracted that. Now said it was a typo that appeared on her campaign filing forms. However, keep in mind, here's a fun note for you. The zip code that she put on those papers, the one that she got wrong. Isn't it from like no comus or something? Yeah, where Neal properties are. Oh. Which happens to be a big builder here in southwest Florida. And it's kind of wild that that was actually the zip code used where she's never lived before. I'm curious. about the typo because when I've got my zip codes wrong it's usually because it's one number off or I'm using an old zip code where I used to live because I've done that before so it's an honest mistake yeah when you just move you're you are having to train yourself to type that or write that address again unless you were somebody else I'm saying possibly somebody else would have to deal with this type of situation. I'm not accusing anything. You'd be your own judge. Oh, we need the College of Political Knowledge. Call now to play 239-479-5592. Call now to play the College of Political Knowledge. Call now.

The Pentagon. You now have yourself. I have to correct you. It's where the Department of War works. Oh, thank you. Yeah, Department of War. There we go. I was going to say it's the Department of War. You should have said, what department, Tim? What's wrong with you, Jason? Get it together, buddy. All right, you could have went after me. It would have been fun. I liked it. All right, here we go. Question number three, as you worked towards the Masters. What is the name of the president's group of top advisors?

Hamilton. You are a doctor, my friend. Dr. Tim. Congratulations, buddy. You're getting a $30 gift card to Duncan. Plus, you are now an official doctor of political knowledge. So Dr. Tim, thank you very much. It's been a while since we've got a doctor. I feel good about it, man. Tim, hold on. I've got to get all your information. And, man, I'm really jealous of your Fourth of July deal. That is a pretty big deal. You should bring her out in the morning and bring her out. I mean, in the early afternoon, over to the race of flag, 250-foot flag. Show her the Patriots. them inside your soul and then take her to the roof, you know, maybe lunch, dinner, do the whole process. So here's the thing. She doesn't know I'm taking her yet. It's a total surprise. You're kidnapping her? I mean, does, I mean, I'm just kidding, Tim. I'm just playing. We're going to have a little dinner, and then I'm going to take her up there. We're going to watch all of the fireworks go off all the way down the coast. And you act like you've done this before. Have you done this before, Tim? I have not. All right. I just wanted to make sure. I just wanted to make sure this wasn't something you do with everybody, you know, something to spend. All right, I'm just best with you. I'm saying what she'll say. Tim, how many other women have you done this with, Tim? I want to know. We've been together 37 years. Oh, congratulations. A long time ago. Right. Congratulations, buddy. All right, hold on. I've got to get all your information. Congratulations, Dr. Tim. Thanks for hanging out with us today. Thank you. I love that guy. What a cool idea. Go up on a roof, watch a little fireworks. It's a great idea. So romantic, too, especially with it being a surprise. Just them. Oh. I mean, you've got to set it up before you go up there, right? You've got to set up the table, the wine or champagne, some, you know, if you're already going to dinner, maybe, you know, some kind of dessert, like a nice fruit tray or something, and maybe some chocolate covered strawberries, something to that matter, right? But a rooftop to yourselves on the 4th of July, America's 250. Boy, what a place to go spend that day. Some sparklers, you know, get what you got to get, you know what I'm saying? Maybe a blanket, a pillow. You know, I'm just saying, it might get cold. It might get cold. It might get cold up there. It's a roof. You never know. It's not going to get cold. Shut up. All right. Don't forget to join us this Friday tomorrow, or actually tomorrow, this Friday for the live broadcast at Biggie's Place on Fowler and get yourself an America Freedom 250 coffee mug. This thing is gorgeous. You can see it right now if you're watching us on Southwest Florida CW and get yourself one of these coffee mugs. It's happening this Friday, 6 to 9 a.m. Biggie's Place in Fort Myers on Fowler. More daybreak coming up next.
