29 segmentsNow time for the seven things you'll be talking about today. Number seven. The U.S. Representative Dale Strong. He has decided that he is going to give an America is back speech on the House floor. Celebrating Republican-led accomplishments under President Donald Trump, and those include border security enhancements. It also includes energy independence, economic resurgence with record stock markets and low unemployment. By the way, Alabama's rate is 2.8%. That's down with 5,000 jobs created in North Alabama in the last year. That's great. And peace through strength abroad. I'm just saying this right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's a lot of factors in the economy right now. But it's hard to argue with 2.8% unemployment. It's really hard to argue with that. If you want a job, there are jobs. Obviously, out there you can tell me about people leaving the jobs market. I get that. I understand all of that as well. I also understand that people want deflation now as opposed to inflation getting under control, but they don't really understand what they're asking for. Number six. The fallout from the University of Alabama stopping the use of taxpayer dollars to fund student magazines that are, how do I put this, race and sex-based, like Alice, which focused on women and 1956, which centered on the black experience. Well, I'll just tell you this right now. They don't seem to understand why that's happening, and they continue having these two young girls on there to talk about it, and they never say, why should the state be funding your affinity group? Attorney General Pam Bondi put out an anti-DEI directive, so did the state of Alabama in plenty of executive orders. Viewpoint discrimination is not what's happening here, even though a lot of groups are suggesting that's the case. It's ridiculous. Number five. President Donald Trump's comments that Somalis are garbage is obviously in reference to the ongoing fraud investigation there in Minnesota. Of course, we're pretending we don't understand that. His borders are. Tom Homan said, I agree with 100% what Trump is doing. Trump labeled flights targeting Somali gangs, criminals, fraudsters, Minnesota as removing garbage, which is exactly correct. If you're taking these people out, you're removing garbage. Okay, let's be real about this. Community fears of mass removals and the revoking of temporary protecting status of over 10,000 immigrants. Oh, no. Oh, no. What are we going to do? It's sparking protests and accusations of inflammatory rhetoric to attempt to stop the immigration enforcement momentum. And it's very unfortunate because they don't really look at what's actually happening. They're just like Donald Trump's doing it, so it's bad.
Number four. Alabama fans very happy as Alabama secured the number nine seed in the 12-team college football playoff. And their gift for that is they get to go to Norman, Oklahoma, and play the team that put them on the bubble in the first place when Oklahoma beat them. The Crimson Times resume strength. and quality losses help them edge out Notre Dame for inclusion in the playoff. And people are furious about this. Oh, three-loss team, a three-loss team. Wasn't Clemson a three-loss team last year? Okay, I just want to make sure I understand that. I think Clemson was a three-loss team. Ole Miss got in even though. I guess maybe Clemson was an excuse. Oh, I guess in the new 3-team, a new format, maybe it was. Anyway, it doesn't matter. Old Miss got in with Lane Kiffin gone. They're going to play Tulane, two teams that both lost their head coaches, one of which will continue coaching. That's John Summel. Number three. Alabama law enforcement arrest of undocumented immigrants has surged 450%. We should be applauding this. This is great to over 1,200 arrest in 2025. Wait a second. I thought it would be more than that. I want more than that. There's 67 counties, 1,200 arrests. That's not very many in each county. I'm not super psyched about that after all. No, I'm not excited about this at all. I want more. More arrest. Enhanced ice partnerships with local groups, local initiatives like focusing on trucking, targeting criminal violations, reflect statewide efforts to identify and deport criminal illegals amid federal crackdowns, which is exactly what should be happening here. And, of course, people are furious about this. Oh, my God, can you believe they're deporting all of these criminals? Well, they're just criminals in a little way, though. Stop and please. Number two. A U.S. Representative Mike Rogers of Sacks. back down from Sacktown. You may remember him, Chairman of the Armed Services Committee? Yeah, he is not a happy camper right now. He wants to see more information about these airstrikes. He's pushing bipartisan action to gather a full accounting, which is exactly what should be happening. U.S. Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas said he is fine with Democrat demands for the full unended video release of the September 20th. second narco terrorist strike. All the media is now calling it a narco boat, so at least they're coming around, okay? They don't want to say narco terrorists. That's fine.
He said, this is cotton did, quote, nothing remarkable or profoundly shaking, end quote, and accused opponents of politicizing military actions against Trenda and Agua terrorists amid intensifying congressional calls for transparency. Now, time for the number one thing you'll be talking about today. After the attempted bomber of the RNC and DNC in 2021 on January 6th, 2021, let's make sure we get that right because I know sensitive, a lot of you guys are about this, was identified as a left-wing anarchist last week. We are now being told that in his meetings with the FBI, that he told them that he was a supporter of Donald Trump and believed the 2020 election was stolen. Uh-oh. We're in a choose-your-own-adventure-situation. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. By the way, his family has said that he is not a Trump supporter and that he is, quote, an autistic, recluse computer nerd who is, quote, not a Trump supporter.
Just basically, just believe whatever you already want to believe, okay? Watch as this story falls out of the media, okay? And I will just tell you this, even if he is a Trump supporter, did you notice? The Trump administration still went after him. Did you notice that? Did you notice that? Now, I suggest he was probably a Trump supporter from the very beginning. And now we're being told that that may not be the case from his family. Is it possible that he's maybe saying that in order to make it appear that his side is not the side that did this? Is that a possibility? I mean, remember, the furry shooter of Charlie Kirk? Yeah, that guy was a right winger, apparently. Remember, remember with the guys who shot at Donald Trump, both right wingers? That's how they've tried to sell. There's still people who believe that. Republicans shot Donald Trump, guys. Republicans did that. Remember? Okay. I'm just checking. Just choose your own adventure on this, okay? That's what you get to do here because nobody's going to believe anything that doesn't fit their opinion. I thought he was a right winger from the very beginning. It just made sense to me. But apparently some said, no, he's the left winger. And now some are saying, no, he's a right winger. So everyone gets to do whatever they want to do. So congratulations to you guys on that one.
