I believe Eric Church in concert tonight here downtown. I saw the big tour bus driving around the field house. If you're going to that show tonight, have fun. Hammer here filling in for Nigel. Normally it's the Hammer and Nigel show. Okay, let me take that back. Sometimes it's the Hammer and Nigel show when Nigel's here. But he's starting his fall break a little early today. I'll take mine tomorrow. It's going to be a little short-handed around WIBC the next week as we take our trips with our families and kids and stuff. That's what it's about. So thank you so much for letting me rock this party solo with you guys today. I got Allison over here. And yes. We did put a dedicated camera on Ms. Allison. So get your butts to the YouTube camera. Give us a like, give us a thumbs up. Serious question for you. You don't have to yell it out loud. But I'm just wondering, what is really a bigger deal in your mind? This historic peace deal that Trump has brokered between Hamas and the Israelis. Or the scandal of the Biden DOJ spying on Republican senators. Like, this is really some next level Watergate stuff here. Everybody always talks about Watergate. Watergate was such a big deal. Anytime there's another controversy, people put Gate at the end of it. Deflate Gate. Or, in our case, the fourth floor bathroom might blow up gate. Anytime there's some sort of controversy, we put gate after it. That's how big of a deal that was. To me, this is much larger than that. And I know it might be apples and oranges, but the new space, the news cycle. cable news shows, talk radio. There's only so many minutes in a day to cover big stories. And I have seen the ceasefire, the peace deal all over the place. Not as much on this spying scandal. But let's start with the peace deal. Because it is a big deal. I'm not trying to minimize it at all. It is a big deal. Hamas accepting the peace plan ending two years of war in Gaza. Sounds like the hostages will be returned in exchange for those detained. That process is ongoing. I believe Trump said that might be taking place early next week. Last night, Trump called in to Fox News, spoke with Sean Hannity, and I thought this was interesting.
Yes, he was doing a victory lap, but he mentioned to Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel. Look, you guys can't be fighting the world all the time. It's amazing. I've never seen anything. It's so good for Israel. I spoke to Benjamin Netanyahu just a little while ago. He called. He said, I can't believe it. He said, everybody's liking me now, meaning him. He said, and I said, more importantly, they're loving Israel again. And they really are. I said Israel cannot fight the world, maybe. They can't fight the world. And he understands that very well. I thought that was interesting because I do love seeing all the celebration videos, people dancing in the streets, and people are legitimately optimistic here. Trump added that he's aiming to travel to the Middle East to have the official signing of this sometime in the near future. But I kind of seen this movie before. There was a ceasefire in place when the music festival was attacked. So yes, I love the peace deal. Peace is always great. A peace deal is substantially bigger than just a ceasefire. But it's only good until somebody breaks it. And that seems like that happens quite a bit. and this little back and forth between the Israelis and the Palestinians. And again, Trump says the hostage exchange will take place Monday or Tuesday of next week. So on the other side of what is a crazy news cycle, you've got, and I can't do Nigel's Trump voice, I wish I could, deranged prosecutor Jack Smith. Prosecutor Jack Smith spying. on private communications and travel of Republicans. Having feds spy on Republican senators and one House member. Now, the argument is, well, this was for the January 6th investigation. We have to fortify the election, and we have to make sure those no good, rotten, shady Republicans aren't doing anything illegal. Like spying on their personal communication devices? Like what you're doing? Adam Schiff had over 3,500 pages of illegally obtained phone records. 3,500 pages detailing individuals that were spied upon, including some members of the press. Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn, she spoke about this yesterday. What we know is this, that the FBI... under Joe Biden and under Barack Obama, that they exercised activity that they had no authority to exercise. And as Senator Haggerty mentioned, we know what they did in 2016 to the Trump transition team. And now we find out that after the Mar-a-Lago raid,
after the indictment of President Trump, they surveil us, people who support President Trump. members who are all Republicans, but it shows you how out of control and rotten to the core and politicized the FBI had become and how they had absolutely no problem at all whatsoever with political weaponization. We look forward to further investigation on this. And good luck trying to find coverage of this story. on CNN, on MSNBC. Because could you imagine if the roles were reversed here, if it were the Trump Department of Justice, and Rachel Maddow had just found out that Elizabeth Warren and Chuck Schumer have been surveilled on their private devices illegally? It'd be DefCon 1. It'd be wall-to-wall coverage. But good luck finding any sort of coverage on that. And this is such a huge deal. So in your face corrupt. But crickets, for the most part, from about 90% of the national media. What is Toyota affordability? It's buying smart.
