It's Wednesday. Hey, how are you? Good morning. October 29th. Fall weather's here. It's going to be in the 30s at the end of the night on Friday night, Halloween night. So make sure the kiddos are dressed warm. At least that's the way it looks right now. But we welcome you, friends, to the Wednesday edition of the morning show with Preston Scott. Home Day. And that's Jose over there. in Studio 1A. I'm here in Studio 1B. You got a good program waiting for you, but let's start here. When Paul wrote Philippians, he said in chapter 4 verse 8, and finally brothers, I'll go ahead and toss in sisters, just to make sure everyone feels welcome here. Whatever is true. Whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable. If there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

1:42

Our world is, though so advanced and enlightened, is really not that much different. There's been sin since the Garden. Paul faced persecutions. Paul faced his own enemies. Him. Don't forget, Paul was Saul, and Saul was a murderer. Saul persecuted the very people that he now is instructing. Boy, if would you make up a religion based on that kind of stuff? See, that's the thing. I've challenged people for years. You don't believe in God? That's you're right. But just for a second step back, invent a faith. Just go ahead and make one up. And consider the span of time that God's writings cover and how harmonious it all is. And then you've got a guy who used to be a murderer and persecutor of Christians who Jesus taps on the shoulder and says, hey, what are you doing? I want you. I can only... I mean... What an amazing encounter. And Paul is speaking from, these are words from the experience of a guy with a cluttered mind. A guy who made a lot of mistakes, surrendered his life to Christ, and then just steamrolled for Jesus. The fact that he's writing is enough. But the words that he writes, you're going to, he knows. We're going to think about a lot of things. But what he's challenging us is to redirect our mind. You know, for me, when I think of that list, thoughts, that are things that are, sorry, we're going to think about something that is true, honorable, just, pure, lovely, commendable. Excellent. Praiseworthy. You know what that is? God's word. I can't think of anything else that is. so brilliantly by a set of words. I mean, I think we all endeavor to check off a few of these boxes with the things that we say, the things that we think about, the things that we consume intellectually. But all of them? He said, think of these things. Well, to me, that's God's word. And so there's your challenge. Courtesy of Paul. We go pull. Ten past the hour. It is Wednesday on the morning show with Preston Scott.

5:31

Okay, let's take a peek inside the American Patriots Almanac. I'll tell you about the show here in a moment. October 29th, huh? Okay. 1796, the otter of Boston, first ship from the Atlantic coast to anchor in a California port arrives at Monterey. What a journey that had to be. from Boston to the other side of the country in 17. And it wasn't even our country at that point, right? We were just barely starting to expand. 1858, the first store opens in the frontier town of Denver selling goods to gold miners. How about that? Oh, what has happened to that beautiful city? 1929 stock prices plunge on the New York Stock Exchange marking the beginning of the Great Depression. October 29th, 1929. That's when it started. In France, in 1944, the 100th and 442nd fights to rescue the Lost Battalion.

6:55

1998 at age 77, John Glenn returns to space aboard the shuttle discovery. 36 years after becoming the first American to orbit the Earth. That's pretty sporty. And in 2012, Hurricane Sandy makes landfall near Atlantic City causing devastation in New Jersey and other states. By the way, speaking of hurricanes, I just, I got to help you out here. One of the most powerful storms in history. Hurricane Melissa. I don't doubt it. Huge storm. But here's what I want to point out. It is tied with maximum sustained winds of 185 miles an hour. With the Labor Day hurricane of 1935. Huh. You don't say. 1935. Well. I mean, that's just, that's crazy. We were barely industrialized. How is that possible? Just saying. Just pointing it out. Just wanted to make sure that was on your radar. And look, this is a terrible storm. I mean, golly. I mean, Jamaica, beautiful, beautiful island nation. But this is going to be devastation across the island. and just public service announcement i can't help it look we only it's national cat day national hermit day okay that's all we got oh i'm sorry national oatmeal day oatmeal cookies underrated i mean you don't make them but if someone has them out and they're well i mean they're properly made and baked and they're soft and they're you're not turning it down you're eating an oatmeal cookie But let me just back up. I came across the story of a couple honeymooning in Jamaica. Imagine being caught on the island for one of the biggest storms ever. Pst. You don't go to the Caribbean in hurricane season. You don't go. during hurricane season in the Caribbean. You don't do it. You don't do it. If that's where you have to go, get married in the winter, early spring, but don't go there in that time of year. I just, it's like, ah, people. Come on now? Why do you think it's all cheap that time of year? That's why. 16 past the hour. This morning show with Preston Scott. Today's program will feature a visit with attorney Jeremy Cohen from the law firm Black and Cohen. He was at the Leon County School Board meeting last night. And so was the commissioner of education.

10:40

Anastasios Kamutsis. What? I wonder if they kept him to three minutes. He was not very kind. And I don't blame him one bit because he's correct about everything that he said. But the reason why. I want to, I want to, obviously I'm curious to get Jeremy's take on that, but I also want to hear his thoughts on, uh, board member Daryl Jay Jones, who based on what I witnessed was just the typical rude, dismissive, arrogant man that he portrays himself to be. If he's a brother in Christ, I don't know that he is. I don't know that he isn't. We would have words. I would confront him. Not as someone who's perfect, but as someone who would look at his life and look at the fruit and look at what he does and how he conducts himself. I mean, you've got a school board member that said in an interview a year and a half before he was elected that he doesn't like kids. Then, I mean, did he have an Amas Road Walk kind of thing where suddenly he had an epiphany and loves children because he said in an interview, I listened to it. I watched it. I watched him say the words. I don't like kids. And he's the chair of the Children's Services Council along with being a school board member. What in the world? I would love to know what changed? At what point? Anyway, I don't mean to get sidetracked here, but we're going to talk about that. Also in the third hour, Jerome Hudson from brightbart.com will join us. But we wanted to hear from the chairman of the school board, not chairman, the chair is Lori Cox and, you know, love Lori, but. We're not addressing the issues as forcefully as they need to be addressed. And, you know, appreciate that she loves Jesus, but there's a time to turn over the tables. There's a time to walk in and turn over the tables. And the conduct of a school board member has been dismissed and ignored. and has not been called out and singled out, and it should be. His comments about Charlie Kirk are embarrassing and they're shameful. And that rhetoric from an elected official needs to be exposed and it needs to be accounted for. Now I'm all four. I was wrong. I made a mistake. Okay. Except he's done nothing of the kind. Discovered in Wyoming, a stunningly preserved dinosaur mummy, which have skin and hooves. It's duck-built dinosaurs found more than 100 years ago, so well-preserved.

14:17

They contain fleshy body parts and extinct species embedded in thin layers of clay, according to scientists. They were discovered in the early 1900s. Recent examination of those fossils by paleontologists at the University of Chicago revealed the fossils do not contain just bones, but mummified body parts protected underneath a clay mask. In Wyoming. protected by wet clay? What led to that happening? What in the world could have caused? And, you know, if you do a look at the archaeological sedimentary layers, there are some problems. With the, uh, The whole, how did they get buried in that layer of how'd that? Well, maybe there was a worldwide flood. Huh. Where'd that water come from? Oh, well, didn't we just do a story of how scientists have found massive stores of fresh water underneath the oceans? Like they could just sort of burst forth and go. Really? Huh. I'm just, you know. Cool. Look at that. 27 minutes after the hour. They don't say dinosaurs in the Bible. Well, they don't say poodles either. Weather, traffic, and the big stories in the press box. The fastest three hours in media. And don't be surprised if you have a chuckle here and there. Just like that. It's the morning show with Preston Scott. Let's get right to it. The Big Stories in the Press box this morning. We have Massachusetts and nearly two dozen other states suing the Trump administration trying to force the government to fund the food stamp program, even if Congress doesn't approve any new funding. I get it. I understand. But isn't it ironic that these are all Democrat states? And it's Democrats that are pausing and are continuing to keep the government shut down. I mean, the lawsuit cites federal law, which states SNAP benefits, quote, must be furnished to all eligible households. There's $5 billion of contingency money available. The government can pull from a separate fund that has more than $23 billion in it, according to the lawsuit. And that may be true. And they may have to put that money out there. I just think it's funny. Not the situation has been caused, but that you have Democrat states suing for something Democrats have caused. You can't make it up. And speaking of, Senate Democrats yesterday blocked the 13th effort to reopen the government. Democrats stopped it. How they have...

18:00

The boldness to call this the fault of Trump is hilarious. Well, he needs to sit down and negotiate. I'm sorry. We don't negotiate with terrorists. Democrats are acting like terrorists. They have admitted they are holding government hostage using... As leverage, people that need food stamps that need benefits. That's the leverage we've got right now, all these suffering people. That's how Democrats think. And because they have insulated themselves from the suffering, it's all good. No worries, man. It's all good. Let me ask you this. In just a few days, air traffic controllers are going to miss their first paycheck. What happens on Thanksgiving if your air traffic controllers say, okay, fine, we're not coming to work? This is what the Democrats are playing with. Okay.

19:29

I'm going to remind you, this is all about Obamacare subsidies that they added to. It's already subsidized. When the subsidies end, the end of the year, which they, all the Democrats made that happen, they set the time, they passed the bill, they set it all up. Obama care is still going to be subsidized to roughly 80%. 80% paid for by you and me. Last big story in the press box. Whistleblower warning, there's another side of this illegal trucker situation, not just dead people. He said, we're finally opening up. And the he is Mike Kacharski, co-owner, Vice President of JKC Trucking, based in Illinois. He said the illegals driving are killing the trucking industry because here's what's happening. As a business owner, he said, I was trying to figure out who's taking all these loads at these depressed prices. He said, because in the trucking industry, everyone's competing for the same loads. The low bid wins. These illegals are bidding jobs for substantially less than Americans. than citizens of this country. So they have driven down the prices to the point where you can't stay in business. Trucking companies are closing left and right because of the illegal immigrants that are being given CDLs by certain states. Who knew? Well, now you do. So there. 40 minutes past the hour. Big stories in the press box on the morning show.

21:35

Drinking some of my throat coat tea. I think I'm better. I got a little bit more sleep last night. Still working hard at it, but a little better. Grateful. Did my cold ease trick, doused myself with my, I've got some nutrients that I take that really boost up the immune system and then I take my zinc lozenges. And while food tastes like garbage for days after, it's still better than getting just, you know, getting a cold or something like that. So just a little precautionary tea this morning, a little throat coat. If I could, I would play the theme music from the James Bond movie from Russia with Love. Only I would add. from Russia and China, and I would change it from with love to without love. From China and Russia or from Russia and China without love. What am I talking about? Get this. China and Russia are sending attractive women to seduce tech workers in Silicon Valley, even marrying and having children with their targets in order to steal technology. It is verified. They are using something that, I mean, one guy named Jason Mulvenin, Chief Intelligence Office for Premier Consulting, which provides risk assessments for American companies investing in China. He said, I'm getting an enormous number of very sophisticated LinkedIn requests from the same type of attractive young Chinese women. It seems to have really ramped up. He described how at a business conference on a Chinese investment risk hosted last week in Virginia, two attractive Chinese women showed up and attempted to gain entry. We didn't let them in, but they had all the information about the event and everything else. Now, this is from the times.com. Sex warfare is just one way American tech workers are being played, according to five counterintelligence experts. China is hosting competitions for startups on U.S. soil to steal sensitive business plans and even trying to sabotage American tech companies. In February, the House Committee on Homeland Security warned that Chinese Communist parties conducted more than 60 cases of espionage in the U.S. over the last four years. And it's scratching the surface. They are using both Russia and the CCP, the chikoms. So you got the Ruski's and the chikoms using not sophisticated spies. They're using ordinary citizens to target American counterparts rather than trained agents. Hold on here. They're harder to spot. One intelligence official for the United States, counterintelligence, said, we're not chasing a KGB agent in a smoky guesthouse in Germany anymore. Our adversaries, particularly the Chinese, are using a whole of society approach to exploit all aspects of our technology and Western talent. One particular case they talk about here.

25:05

Beautiful Russian woman worked at an aerospace company, married an American colleague. He discovered that she had gone to modeling academy in her 20s, but later attended a Russian soft power school before disappearing for a decade and re-emerging in the U.S. as a cryptocurrency expert. But she doesn't stay in crypto. She's trying to get into the heights of military space innovation. The husband is totally oblivious. Theft of trade secrets is costing our country $600 billion a year. Just for a second, imagine... Imagine being the dude that marries one of these women. You have a couple kids, and one day, Natasha or Somali is gone. They're just gone. And you tried looking her up. She doesn't exist. She's gone. She's back in Russia. She's back in China. She has done her job. This is what we're facing. And we're selling land to these people. I'm sorry. Well, it's not fair. They're not. Sorry, if you come from the land of China. Sorry. I'll tell you what, we'll let them buy. We'll let them buy land near Gavin Newsom and Zohran Mamdani and Kathy Hochul in New York and in California, respectively. What do you think? 47 passed. Can't make it up.

27:08

Okay, this is just a little alarming. We've discussed in the last month or so young people being guided to successfully killing themselves by ChatGPT. And now an analysis that they're discussing on Fox News of ChatGPT says that more than one million people. are engaging chat GPT weekly to discuss suicide. You know how you handle this? If you want to leave the service available, any reference to self-harm, you refer to the suicide hotline or to counselors in a given area, But in no way, shape, or form, do you allow your program to advise? That's not hard. You know what? There are a lot of people out there that just need a Coke and a Smile. Remember that? Remember that when that was the jingle? Have a Coke in a Smile. Remember that? It just seemed, everything just seems so simple. Have a Coke and a smile. Those are the good days. You know, one of the best parts of the season we're rolling into is the Coca-Cola ads with the polar bears. I am so down with that. Now, I admit, I'm a big, I'm a fan of Coca-Cola products, although I will have a wild cherry Pepsi now and then. but it takes the wild cherry for me to enjoy a Pepsi. Pepsi's just, I just, it's not the same. Coca-Cola has reportedly begun rolling out their made-with-sugar cane, Coca-Cola. Cain sugar, not the high-fructose corn syrup. But it's only available in the 12-ounce single-serve glass bottles. Now, that said, it's the best way to enjoy a Coca-Cola from the store and not a fountain. Glass. I mean, it's not even close. Now, it's not inexpensive. It's an expensive thing to do. Many of you remember. the days of buying Coca-Cola or whatever the soft drink of preference was, and you would get that it would always be in bottles, and you would return the bottles and get money back for them that you would then roll into the purchase of another set. And so there would be almost like a little rebate thing. But I will tell you that a glass served or a chilled bottle of Coca-Cola is a thing to behold. It just is. Now, they've been making cane sugar Coca-Cola in Mexico for years. That's the Mexican Coca-Cola. Literally, the Coke brand in Mexico, made in Mexico, has been using cane sugar. So it's, it's, it's, they're just doing the same thing now in the States, but on a limited basis. It's, you know, Trump is out there on truth social saying, hey, you're going to, you're going to see it's just better. Could you imagine him after he's.

30:48

He would be like an amazing spokesperson for Coke. When he leaves the office, just a big smile, taking a drink of a bottle of Coca-Cola. It's just better. It's beautiful. It's the best Coke ever. Anyway, so it's the thing. We've got a story about the decidedly unfriendly skies and much more to come in the second hour of the morning show with Preston Scott. Five past the hour. Morning show with Preston Scott. Great to be with you this morning. He is Jose. I am Preston. We talked about last hour. It's not funny, but you just sometimes, I think we all have this in us where there are just certain subjects. There are certain things that you just... It's so potentially horrible, you just have to laugh. I can't imagine what Thanksgiving will be like if the air traffic controllers say, if you're not paying us, we're not working. Sorry. Would you have a hard time being mad at him?

32:35

Because what I'd darn well do is I'd redirect your anger at the people that are getting paid and holding up the whole process. Congress. Notably, Democrats. Because it's Democrats in the Senate that are stopping it. 13 times. And they think they're going to win this. They're not. I'm just kidding. I've said before, flying right now for me is only if I am crossing an ocean and I have no choice because paddling won't get me there in time or a family emergency where I have to be somewhere the next day and it's too far for me to drive there. That's it. No way. Uh-uh. And then there's this, Lufthansa Airline, Chicago to Germany. An Indian national named Pranith Kumar Usurapali, 28 years of age, student visa, studying the Bible in the United States. Flying to Germany, stabbed two 17-year-old passengers with a fork, one in the shoulder, one in the head. The U.S. Attorney's Office, following meal service, Minor A was sleeping lightly in a middle seat when he allegedly woke up to Uso Rapali standing over him. Used his right hand to strike Minor A in the left clavicle area with a metal fork. Then lunge toward Minor B, seated to the Minor A's right in a middle seat in the center row of the aircraft, and struck him in the back of the head. When flight crew members attempted to subdue him, he raised his hand, formed a gun with his fingers, put it in his mouth, and pulled an imaginary trigger. Immediately afterwards, Yusirapali allegedly... turned to a female passenger to his left and slapped her with his hand and then attempted to slap another crew member. The flight was diverted to Boston Logan International where he was arrested, taken into custody. On a student visa, how'd you like to be sleeping, wake up and having Pranith?

35:31

I am going to stab you with a fork. And there is nothing you can do about it. You might as well allow me to stab you. Those kids are going to be horrified. They're never going to take a nap on a flight again. They may never sleep again the rest of their lives. This is what I'm talking about. Obviously, this kid's had a mental breakdown. There's something really wrong. Or he was. tripping on something. But just for a second, think through the levels of disturbance that is happening on air flights. Preston, it's still remarkably rare. Okay, if you say so, but I'm not interested. I'm just not interested in taking that chance. 10 past the hour. Speaking of flying, a positive story next. Okay, it's only a good story. in that we're trying to discover some answers because it's really a story about the disappearance of Amelia Earhart I never knew she was a professor lecturer at Purdue University and so Purdue University is funding a foundation at Purdue is funding the effort to find her airplane They feel good about the prospects and the expedition to do it begins in just a few days. They're looking for the Lockheed Electra 10E that was flown by her. She went down with her navigator. The expedition being led by Richard Pedigrew, Executive Director of Archaeological Legacy Institute based in Eugene, Oregon. Independent nonprofit organization dedicated to archaeological research and education. It's 15-person team. Representatives from Purdue in West Lafayette, Indiana will be there. She was a consultant for the Department of Aeronautics and taught at Purdue in the 1930s. In fact, they have a replica, an actual working replica of her airplane.

38:22

All the evidence says that there is a straight metallic object in the lagoon to the north side of the island of Nicomororo. And they've spent years acquiring and analyzing videos, still imagery shot from satellites, drones. They think it's part of the airplane because it's just too straight. It's too linear. They think it's part of the fuselage. That eventually it just got kind of, you know, Ocean rose and it got scooped off. Now, it's important to note that the International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery, we've had representatives of that group on this show talking about what they found on that island because they have found all kinds of other evidence. that date to the time period of Amelia Earhart, like things dealing with makeup and lotions and certain bottles and so forth that are from that era that were on that island. Leading them to believe that she landed her plane there, it's due south of where she was supposed to be. Likely, some kind of navigational error ran out of fuel, down she went. And she was able to put it on the island. the wreckage would would seal it. It would end the controversy that, oh, she was captured by the Japanese, oh, she was a spy. None of that was true. So they're going to spend several days looking and then if they find it, if they determine that it's there, they're going to bring it, they're going to get it. Not this trip, but they're then going to go back and try to recover it and bring it back to Purdue University. Put it on display, perhaps with the other one. The other plane that they have, the guys leading this expedition flew that plane around the country. It was built for Northwest Airlines in 1935, configured for passenger service. During World War II, it was used for a military transport. It was sold, changing hands many times. And then it was restored by a Linda Finch who restored it to match the specifications of Earhart's plane. And so it's now at Purdue University. That would be a reason for me to go to Purdue University to see that airplane. I have seen an Elektra in person. I've seen it one time. And it's a beautiful airplane. It is just a beautiful airplane. 16 minutes past the hour. When we come back, a web of lies or that Kia? 21 past the hour, Jerome Hudson next hour. Joining us on the radio program. You know, we've been talking about the red lights, the warning signs for New Yorkers. And look, there's a part of me that's like, yeah, whatever. Do your thing, man. Y'all have trashed your state and California, Illinois. Y'all are your own worst enemies. And I admire anybody who's a Republican or a conservative.

41:55

who loves Jesus and is just, this is my, this is my state. I'm hanging in there. I admire you. I really do. But we've got now, Zohran Mamdani has been caught lying about the whole Islamists were victims of 9-11, and he talked about his hijib wearing aunt. who was unable to travel in the subways and all that. Have you heard what's happened here? Oh, it wasn't my aunt. It was a cousin. It was a distant cousin. That's a quote, distant cousin. Well, he had to change his story in part because his aunt never wore a hijab and was in fact in Tanzania living there in September. of 2001. She was nowhere near the city. She lived elsewhere. Conveniently, the cousin passed away years ago. So there's no way to really ask the question. Can you confirm this story? And in fact, a Google search and a search of legacy.com yielded no obituary for anyone by the name he offered.

43:23

because his team refused to give the full name of the distant cousin. So there's no way to verify the story in any way, shape, or form. You may recall, or may not, you might not know that last week he was shedding crocodile tears because he was called out by Andrew Cuomo. And again, Andrew Cuomo is no prince here, okay? He's better than Zohran Mamdani for the welfare of the city. But he's a train wreck, just a different kind. Andrew Cuomo calls him out for hanging out with a terrorist, Imam, who called, by the way, who said gays should be put to death and are the disease of society. That's a quote from the Imam. So how is Zohran Mamdani walking this tightrope of being buddy, buddy, photographs, the whole nine yards with this extremist Islamist who was involved in the terror attacks of 1993 in the World Trade Center, who believes in death to gays? And you know what? Who thinks that, Islamists? Another separating factor. And so. Once again, Zohran Mamdani has been caught lying, is backpedaling from his statements, and oh, by the way, he's losing in the polls. So I had a thought. Is it that he's lying? Or is he engaged in Tequia?

45:05

Okay, I can't play tequila because it's copyrighted. And I can't have it on the podcast, but I can. Takea! Is that what we're, huh? Are we engaging in just a little verbal sleight of hand known as tequila? Huh? Or is he just lying? There's a difference. See, I've looked it up. If you didn't know, I've looked it up, And this is what artificial intelligence says about Tequia. Generally forbidden. Notice generally. Lying is generally forbidden. However, it is permitted in certain circumstances, such as when necessary to save a life, to deceive an enemy in war, or to reconcile people. The concept that Tequia refers to a form of concealing one's true beliefs to avoid harm. which is considered permissible in specific situations. So where Takia is allowed is war and conflict, reconciliation, protecting one's life, and get this, in personal relationships, it says this, there are some accounts primarily in the context of traditional texts that permit lying in the conversation between a man and his wife.

46:35

What is that? You know what it is? I'll tell you exactly what it is. What Zohran Mamdani is engaging in is not lying. No. Takeaia. Come on, get the Congo line going here. We're not lying. We're just tequila. Yeah, you better know it. You better know it. 27 minutes after the hour. It is the morning show with Preston Scott. Time for news. Traffic, weather, sports, entertainment, and The Truth, the morning show with Preston Scott on News Radio 100.7, WFLA. Wednesday here on the radio program, affectionately known as Common Sense Amplified, morning show with Preston Scott. We mentioned yesterday, Leon County School Board meeting. in the capital city of Florida, and we had someone there, kind of a good buddy of mine, who I've known for years. He's an attorney with Black and Cohen. He is Jeremy Cohen. Jeremy, good morning. How are you? Good morning, Preston. Were you as surprised as I to learn that the Commissioner of Education for the state of Florida, Anastasios Kamutsas showed up? I was. I was very, very surprised and actually fortunate to hear much of what he said. Give us a little snapshot real quickly before we move to the topic of the school board member that was defaming Charlie Kirk's memory. Tell us a little bit about your reaction to the statements made by the Commissioner of Education. The commissioner was rather forceful in statements to the commissioners directly and to Superintendent Hannah about the, I'd say the direction of the school board, some financial issues, and then directly addressed Daryl Jay Jones' comments about Charlie Kirk. So he weighed in on that, did he? Yes, yes, he did. Obviously, paraphrase what he said. Well, there's the secretary's memo regarding statements after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and Daryl Jay Jones obviously is in defiance of that order, and the commissioner actually pointed that out to all the commissioners and to the superintendent. Was there any... Any response by the school board members, the chair, the vice chair, or the superintendent to those comments from the commissioner of education? Not directly. The chair, Lori Lawson Cox, gave more lofty statements about, you know, brotherhood, sisterhood, being collegial, things of that nature. And then she summed up some concern she had about the statements, but not.

49:58

directly addressing what to do about it, just how to go forward as a friendly body, I would say. Jeremy, why did you go? For Charlie, really, it's time, you know, as I watched the engagement that took place at the meeting, it's time for many of us to kind of get off the commentary and the cynicism and get in the arena as Teddy Roosevelt required us to do, as citizens in a republic. And it was, as I said, it was something that I felt necessary because what I did not see was any direct commentary about the protection of the First Amendment ability to speak, but also any accountability and responsibility for statements that were made. Daryl Jay Jones' conduct has been described to me in email as typical, dismissive, arrogant, did not apologize, did not address anybody, did not respond, and in fact at times was just sitting eating food. That was all correct. Obviously there was First Amendment issues, but it was interesting to watch, I would say, the Sixth Amendment issues that were going on in the meeting, which were Mr. Jay Jones staring down, you know, In confronting those who were confronting him, he didn't say anything, but he was dismissive. And then as I read this morning, I guess he spoke after the meeting to the Democrat about how he has bigger fish to fry and just wants to move on. Yeah, I'm sure he does. Jeremy standby, 40 minutes past the hour, a couple more minutes here. Jeremy Cohen, a local attorney with a law firm, Black and Cohen. And for those of you that may not know, school board member,

51:59

just slandered, if it were spoken, libelled because it was written. Charlie Kirk. And there are a lot of us that believe that he should not be responsible for anything to do with our children with carrying those kinds of views. He has every right to express them, but he shouldn't have the opportunity to keep his job. He should be removed from office. And perhaps we're going to see that happen. I don't know. 40 minutes past the hour, more to come. Started counting shows at the beginning because we weren't sure how long he'd last. Now we're just proving to everyone that we can count. This is the morning show with Preston Scott. Jeremy Cohen with us, local attorney. Jeremy, what do you think is the appropriate? next set of steps. Obviously, the school board, the chair of the school board, the superintendent, they don't have the courage to directly deal with this. What do you think needs to happen? Well, the silence from the school board and the superintendent was astounding to me. There was no comment directly, as I mentioned earlier. There was no board vote. There was no issue raised to vote. There was no questions raised about Daryl Jay Jones continuing in the capacity on the school board, nor was there any comment raised about his role on the Child Services Council and whether that ought to be addressed. So what do you think needs to happen next? I am of the opinion that parents and concerned people in the community shouldn't let this go, whether he thinks he has bigger fish to fry or not. You can't just move on from making statements like that without accountability. No, I had asked every commissioner in my comments, as well as the heckler vetoes behind me that had to be silenced by the commission, I'm sorry, by the chair multiple times. not just by me, but by others. I said my door is open for dialogue for these uncomfortable conversations to take place, and it just seems to me there's an unwillingness to do that, which is directly opposite what Charlie Kirk would stand for. Charlie Kirk and the Leon County students deserve more, and I ask them to prove me wrong by actually standing up and doing something, and I agree with you. We all need to get into the arena. We all need to keep the pressure on, and wherever it goes, it goes. Do you expect, given the comments by the Commissioner of Education at that meeting? Again, I'm still amazed that he was there, and I'm grateful that he was there. But, Jeremy, given that the Commissioner of Education said that they will strip the teaching certification from teachers that engaged in celebratory posts of the assassination of Charlie Kirk,

55:03

Do you get the impression that there is an appetite to remove a school board member? There was definitely the appetite on both sides to save them and to keep them. I'll say that. But there was another interesting comment, and it raises multiple issues. But one of the folks that stood up at the end made the comment about how we can vote with our feet and vote with our dollars. And he directly addressed Commissioner, I'm sorry, Superintendent Hannah, that Hannah's role has opened up the floodgates for parents to remove their children to go to charter schools and to go to private schools. And if he keeps it up, there just won't be a budget left for students to teach in the Leon County Public Schools. That's a great point that parents that feel as though they're not being represented and that their kids' viewpoints being marginalized can just leave the school system, which, of course, it's happened. I think they've lost better than 10% and it's killing their budget and it's only going to grow greater with these kinds of actions not being dealt with. What are your final thoughts on all this, Jeremy? Personally, from your position, You walking away from that meeting thinking what? I was upset. Well, I was willing to grade. Let me put it this way. I would give an F to the superintendent in terms of grade. I would probably give an F to most of the school board members for not standing up and directly addressing the issue head on. I'd give an A to the civic involvement. It was very, very fresh to see the First Amendment alive and well. I really enjoyed seeing youth there from PPSA, FSU campus, the vice president, as well as the secretary, I'm sorry, the treasurer, were both there. And I'll say this, it was very disheartening to watch and, you know, see in the words at least, Charlie Kirk having his character assassinated. In not being able to defend himself, and that was one of the reasons I felt that necessary to be there, was that Jay Jones's comments were assassinating and assassinated man's character. And there was no way for Charlie to defend himself. So for Charlie, I felt the need to be there and to address the First Amendment issues that were in play. Jeremy, thanks so much for making time. I suspect given the disposition of this that we might not have heard the end of it, despite Daryl Jay Jones' requests, I suspect that there is consideration of a lawsuit by Turning Point USA and on behalf of Charlie Kirk and his wife and children. But Jeremy, thanks again. I appreciate you. Yes, thank you, Preston for having me. Jeremy Cohen, Black and Cohen law firm at the school board meeting last night. for Charlie on the morning show with Preston Scott. It's the morning show with Preston Scott on News Radio 100.7, WFLA. It's time.

58:30

Well, how to their partners? Oh, boy. Yeah, I'm in a cowboy mood today. But tis the season. So my story is, imagine this. On your doorbell camera, you see three creepy costume figures, and it ain't Halloween yet. Well, we talked about the front end of this story. about someone going on to someone and that they nearly got shot? Well, yeah, there was a huge investigation launched by police because they feared burglary attempts. Yeah. And it turns out it was teen relatives aided by adults staged a Halloween prank on their family members. So the lady saying to the news that, oh, they could have been shot and all that. It was all a prank? Yeah, yeah. The police chief said a moral failure could have had deadly consequences. Why so serious? The homeowner called a relative who arrived armed. So why if you're setting up this prank? Would you call somebody and tell them that if I remember the story correctly? The people were dressed up in these creepy costumes like Michael Myers and, you know, a clown from it or something. And we're screaming that they were going to kill the person inside and all that. Right? Isn't that what was going on? I believe so. I believe this is the same story. But there's a lesson to be learned here. Harmless pranks can escalate. Think twice during the holiday seasons. And don't. Play silly pranks like you're the purge or something. No way, Jose. Yeah, yep. And you also did a story about Fat Bear Week, which the winner was 32 chunk. 32 chunk. Yeah, 1200 pounds. Well, in Texas parks and wildlife, they hosted the first ever fat squirrel week. They did not. Yeah, Fat Squirrel Week. You better believe it. Inspired by, you know, Alaska's Fat Bear Week. There are so many squirrels. How do you figure out who won? Well, yeah, the winner was Chunkosaurus Rex. Okay. From Dinosaur Valley State Park. The finalist included Chunk Norris. Oh, that's funny. Nutella. and Stanley the Texas tank. But Chunkosaurus Rex took the prize. It doesn't say how much he weighed. I guess they just went by visuals. He was just a big boy. Yeah. So he won the competition. Do you know if they did they take pictures and then just put them side by side and do it that way like they did the bear contest? Yeah, it was a bracket style of voting. via social media links. So I'm assuming, yeah, they used pictures. Okay. There had to have been some sort of measuring device or something, you know, so you can tell. So the winner is Chunkasaurus Rex? Chunkosaurus Rex. That's right. Go ahead. No, I can't believe he beat Chunk Norris. Nobody beats Chunk Norris. I dare you. Anyway.

1:01:48

What's funny about that to me is just a couple weeks ago, I was telling my wife that the cool weather's coming because I kept seeing squirrels in my backyard with their mouths full. Getting chunky. No, they were saving. They're just grabbing, sticking it in their mouth. And, I mean, they looked like Marlon Brando is the godfather. You know, I'm getting ready for the fall and the winter weather. And, you know, and so that's... Anyway, it doesn't surprise me. Junkasaurus Rex, that's pretty good. All right. When we come back, that is, by the way, no way, Jose, here on the morning show with Preston Scott. When we return to hour number three, Jerome Hudson joins us. He's the author of the 50 Things Books and the entertainment editor at Brightbart.com. Next, on the morning show with Preston Scott. All right, five past the hour, hour three, turning the page on the radio program, Rundown, literally. Wednesday on the morning show, show 5483, and it's time to have our monthly visit with Jerome Hudson. Jerome is the entertainment editor at brightbart.com. He's the author of the 50 Things Books, 50 Things They Don't Want You to Know, and 50 Things They Don't Want You to Know about Trump. They make great Christmas gifts. Jerome Hudson with us. Hi, Jerome. Hello, brother. How are you? Oh, terrific. Terrific. I'm hoping to get some sunshine today. Yeah. Yesterday. Not going to happen. Seattle. Not going to happen. No, no, no. Hey, what is the right now the biggest story to you, whether it's in the entertainment world, out of the entertainment world, what is it? You know, the immigration, I think. I think it was the biggest, if not the second biggest story in the election, and I think it still continues to be a cloud on the country. When you talk about immigration, you know, I guess if you ask 100 people, maybe 80 or 90 of them would talk about ice rates because that is the most inflammatory attention-catching. thing right now, I guess. But it is so much about people and population and resources, right? And it always has been. And for decades, more people have been coming to this country, living, moving into states and towns or communities who have, in many ways. Certainly not in all cases, but in many ways have not been contributors to those communities in a way that you would hope. And in many cases, far too often cases. People in this country illegally have been a drag on those communities. And in even worse cases, they've been completely lawless. And so what Donald Trump is trying to do really is push back on a synergistic. I mean, it's been corporations. It's been laws that have not been on the books. It's been on the books that have been enforced for over a half century. It's been, as I read about in my first book,

1:05:34

just policies in place in states that have just been created out of full claw. We talk about some of these visa programs. And so anyway... People, too many people in the country with too few resources, whether it be in the classroom, the reason that pupils per class, the cost is so high, the reasons, some of our health care issues are so high. We're talking about the expiration of food stamps, the benefits that so many people, again, who aren't supposed to be or shouldn't be in this country. It's and how that plays into the unemployment number. I mean, housing costs. It's everything. Illegal immigration. Sorry for the long-winded answer, but there it is. One of the big stories in the press box this morning is the head of a trucking company who named himself. I mean, he's out of himself. It's not a hidden thing, but he's a whistleblower. And he's pointing out how the illegal immigrants driving trucks and killing people is not to diminish the lives of those people, but it's nothing compared to the destruction that they're doing to the trucking industry. That by being in this country and getting CDLs illegally. in violation of federal law, that they are undermining the trucking industry by bidding low for jobs and forcing, you know, independent truckers and trucking companies to shutter their doors. Yeah, this is, again, if you look at all the problems that, you know, you talk about on a daily basis, that Breitbart News reports on. It's been around for decades. And again, in many cases, the laws are on the books. And in this case, specifically, there is a... Oh, God. Sorry, my TV has gone into... It's gone into a soothing mode on me. That's okay. No, it's okay. I'm sorry. The trucking business, there's a black market. My dad, my father, when he retired from the Army, he became a letter carrier for the United States post office. And then when he retired from that, he bought a big rig. And then he got two more and employed from family members. And so I've seen up close and personal sort of the inside and the business of a big haul trucking. And there is a black market, absolutely. And there are so many companies that do it the right way and procure employers the right way. And there are a lot of mid-sized to major companies that break the rules. And again, law enforcement has turned a blind eye. There's so much money to be made. And if you can pay someone who has overstayed a visa, if you will,

1:08:43

much cheaper, right? You're not paying insurance on them and you get away with it long enough for enough times. You get to grow and you become so big, too big to fail, if you will. Hang on a second, Jerome. We've got to take a quick break. Eleven past the hour. Jerome, Jerome Hudson, with me. Yes, he knows how to read. Well, actually, his producer reads him. He doesn't know how to read. It's the morning show with Preston Scott. Jerome Hudson with me, entertainment editor at brightbart.com. Before we get to some news from the pages of the entertainment section, the... virtual pages of the website bright bar.com. On the subject of immigration, I'm just curious, why aren't people calling for the removal of Ilhan Omar from Congress and this country for violating her oath of allegiance to the country as a naturalized citizen? Jerome? Hello? I'm sorry, I did the mute and forget on the new thing. My apologies, just really bang up job today. Ilhan Omar is, she's been censored, I think, twice now in the United States Congress. I know there have been a lawmakers who have called for her removal. Jerome, she should be removed because she has stated publicly. She's a Somali first, and that is a direct violation of the naturalization oath of allegiance to the United States of America. It's almost like forget Congress. Yeah, her marrying her brother, I think also should end in sort of an indictment, right? uh you you for you know tax violations uh which i think was the purpose of her doing it um no yeah i so i think it hasn't happened um because she would not be the only one right um you know i i think there are a few members of congress certainly in the united states congress um who who would sort of fall under that same umbrella. And, like, who's, how's it going to look, right? You know, the Republican Party in the House of Representatives, I mean, I think Speaker Johnson's a good man, but he's not going to be the person to leave the charge. He's just not. There are still too many institutionalists. in that body. Thankfully, Donald Trump is endorsing people with, you know, actual spines who see the problems as as fixable and are willing to run for office and get elected and start to fix them. But I just don't think the numbers are there to see, again, that you're, that you're talking about, regardless if we wanted or not, we're just not there yet.

1:11:58

I don't know if it requires numbers, though. I mean, this to me is outside even the purview of Congress. Just because you're in Congress doesn't shield you from if you are a naturalized citizen and you violate your oath by claiming you're a Somali, when the oath of allegiance requires you to forego all of that. You have no attachment to your previous nation. That alone should be, aside from Congress, should be grounds for removal. We're about to see Zohran Mamdani become mayor of New York City, and he still... has full-throated allegiance to Uganda, you know, and he, Zohran Mamdani is getting support from a lot of LGBTQ organizations. How ironic. While he refuses to even criticize his own birth country, which, you know, executes homosexuals, or at least has that, has those laws on the books. And so, you know, I'd love to see it. I don't think that there won't be a day. I don't know how far in the future it is, but I do see a time in which people like Ilhan Omar are, you know, are dealt with. The thing is, and I think I've talked about this before, like her congressional district, Preston, it's got to be one of the safest congressional districts. in the country. And, you know, I think it's 80% Muslim. And it's not by accident. Minnesota is not the type of state that you're going to see, I think, you know, fair. Hey, Jerome, I got a break, pal. We're running real late here. 17 past the hour. More to come with Jerome Hudson from bright bar.com.

1:14:14

22 minutes past the hour. A few more minutes here with Jerome Hudson, entertainment editor from brightbart.com and author of The 50 Things books. Jerome, I noticed on the entertainment page at Breitbart, Charlie Sheen, like we really care what he has to say about much of anything, but still weighing in on the NFL going with Bad Bunny for the Super Bowl halftime show. I was fascinated by the comments of the commissioner. basically dismissing the criticism of the selection saying, oh, there's always going to be people that are upset with our choice. He's going to do a great show. And then he made this comment that I found absolutely mind-numbing. He said, it's going to be a uniting event. What the heck is he talking about? Yeah, you know, I will say it's possible that in some grand fashion, the show, includes a real true patriotic gesture. As I say that, I cannot really think of, at least in recent memory, a halftime show that has done that. And now, the more that I think about it, all the divisive, truly horrific political, seems like the Beyonce halftime show was just... you know, 20 minutes of a Black Panther rally, basically. So I like to look at empirical data. I would throw Charlie Sheen in that because he was kind of the last person, Preston, and I mean maybe the last person that I thought who would not only weigh in, but would have. such a hardline stance on it. Charlie Sheen basically saying they need to drop Bad Bunny because Charlie Sheen doesn't think that it's going to be, that Bad Bunny is going to deliver a show that's going to be pleasing to the majority of the country watching the game for the sake of the game, right? Like I think, I think it's always going to be anecdotal because I just don't know enough of football fans, but I don't know in 20th. 30, 25 years, going back to high school. I marched in the Savannah Hyde high school band when I was in eighth grade. A lot of people come for the game, and you see the prayer circles after the game, and you have the national anthem, the Star Spangled Banner, that is, before the game. It's very patriotic, and it's very pro-America. Bad Bunny could do that. Yeah, but here's the problem, though, Jerome. He stayed seated during the national anthem at a playoff game with the Yankees. Right. He kisses guys on stage. He dresses like women on stage frequently. He will not be entertaining in English. He's going to be entertaining 100% in Spanish. All of the songs are in Spanish. And then he had the gall. to stick it in the face of American fans saying you've got a few weeks to learn Spanish. It's like, well, screw you, pal. I mean, I don't understand any way, shape, or form where this is going to be, quote, uniting. I'm just grateful that Turning Point USA is putting an alternative show out there.

1:17:29

And I can't wait to see the numbers on that. Yes. I just can't wait. I'm looking at empirical data, 1,119 U.S. adults as nationwide. You know, do they think that, do they, do they oppose or are they for Bad Bunny performing at the Super Bowl? And the numbers completely split. Actually, 48% approved, not even a majority of that approved. And I think it's for the reason that you laid out. You know, and you didn't mention that Bad Bunny just a week before he was announced as a Super Bowl performer, basically bashed. immigration and custom enforcement. Yes. Yes. And said that he skipped on his worldwide tour. He basically toured in everywhere, except for Antarctica. He skipped the United States because of President Trump's illegal immigration crackdown and said that he wouldn't do shows in America because for fear that his fans would be arrested. And so pretty despicable guy. And what does the NFL do? Roger Goodell signs off on bringing him as the halftime show. Beautiful. It's about business, baby. It's about business. The NFL is about growing its audience. It's about growing its audience in Spanish-speaking countries and Bad Bunny is the perfect person. Maybe the only artist on the planet alive today who is best to do that. That's the end of the conversation as far as Roger DeBos. Yeah, but what happens? Because I personally think they're going to have trouble with their rate card for the halftime show now that Turning Point USA is promoting an alternative halftime show. And what if a third of the audience leaves? Do they do rate adjustments? Do they give rebates? Do they do bonus spots on the carrying network? It won't happen. It won't happen after this year, right? They'll still be, the NBA, NFL still be able to charge. the networks, they'll still be able to charge the advertisers, the company is the same rate. But this turning point does it again in February, 2027, and the audience grows, returning point, the audience shrinks during the halftime show for the Super Bowl. Then I think, you know, we've seen this time and time again, you know, money matters, and money certainly talks, and it makes markets move, and it makes minds change, target. Cracker Barrel, you know, Bud Light, Anheuser-Busch, Parenthood Company. So that's what I'm saying. You know, if the audience shrinks.

1:20:08

During the halftime show, the offset the amount of people watching the commercials during the game, yeah, you will see. You will see thinking change. But again, I just looked at a video of Jay-Z who is on the selection committee. I think he's ahead of the selection committee, and his contract was just extended. He's proud of the choice for bad money. Whatever. I'm going to make a prediction. You can make note of it that they will be doing bonus spots for the advertisers of the halftime show this year. not next year, not the year after that, this year, because they're going to lose audience and they're going to owe the advertisers because they're not going to have the audience penetration they expect. Jerome, you're my friend. I love you. Thanks for joining me. Thank you, too. Thank you, too. Thank you. All right. Jerome Hudson with us this morning. 29 past the hour. With Preston Scott. The greatest trick, the devil ever pulled. was convincing the world he didn't exist. On News Radio 100.7, WFLA. The hurricane will be north of Cuba. The eye of the storm will be north of Cuba by right around noon time today. And by noontime tomorrow, it is going to be well into the Atlantic off the coast, well away from Florida. We're still going to get impacts because these storms are massive and they create their own weather system. But it will pose no threat to the United States if you advance it to Friday. You're going to get rain and so forth off the eastern seaboard, but the storm itself is way out to sea. It's going to be huge out there. But once again, we will dodge the storm. It's going to be steered away. This cooler weather that's pushing down, it's keeping this thing away. Can't you just see me in front of the green screen doing the weather? Huh? Okay, there's this thing up here, and it's pushing really hard down there. And because it's stiff arm, and just think of like Earl Campbell back in the day running the football. It's a stiff arm. He's keeping the defenders at bay. That's what this weather system's doing, this hurricane, okay? Just keeping it a bay. A little stiff arm, a little stiff arm. Cuba getting rained on, just like Jamaica just got trash. But big stories in the press box, just the headline edition. States are suing the Trump administration to try and stop the suspension of food stamps. It's ironic because the states that are suing are blue states and those states are suing the government because of actions that Democrats are taking. Because for the 13th time, Senate Democrats stopped the passage of a reconciliation bill. Imagine what happens. Air traffic controllers now are going to be added to the list of people not getting paid. What if the air traffic controllers say we're not working on Thanksgiving? It's just not going to work. And a whistleblower, as I mentioned to Jerome Hudson, warning that the illegal immigrants are not just killing people. They're crashing the trucking industry. Probably didn't know about that now, did you? 40 minutes past the hour. Come back with... Yeah.

1:24:06

Yeah, you know what's now. Well, if you read something insane, I probably did it. I'm a fodder for the blog, let's go ahead and Google my name. We have the rights to play this music. Now, there is no way into the sins I have committed. I'm just saying, we can play this. And we all feel better when we have somebody. As the song creator and singer said we can. Trevor to Man. Yeah, time for another edition of Florida Man. This is so good. This just is so good. This is a quintessential Florida man's story. We're going to talk about Justin Farley 43 pulled into a St. Petersburg Circle K back in May. I'm not trying to drop a rhyme on you here. Okay. Pulled into a Circle K back in May, May 5th. And he... opened up a bunch of cabinets and stole a bunch of scratch-off tickets. 40 minutes later. He arrived at an area 7-Eleven trying to redeem $7,000 worth of scratch-offs. He went to try to cash-man. After an unsuccessful attempt, he returned to the same Circle K and tried to cash in on the seven ticket books he had stolen from the store and failed once again. He then left and returned to the Circle K again, only to come up empty a third time. Disparaged? Mr. Farley decided to drive back to the 7-Eleven in a black mask, yellow shirt, black Nikes, and pointed a replica Glock at the clerk demanding the cash register be open. Made off with $120 in cash from the register. A slew of evidence, including surveillance tape, license plate. led to cops pulling him over, book him on commercial burglary, grand theft, among other charges. He admitted to committing the Circle K-7-Eleven robbery in a recorded interview, didn't disclose his repeat visits to the stores. Who steals something like a lottery ticket and goes back to the store to try to cash it? You know who does? A Florida man. That's who does that. A Florida man does that. That is so good. That is so good. A Florida man never fails to disappoint. Tomorrow on the program, Steve Stewart will join us. I would imagine we'll have something to say, by the way, I haven't talked about this, but there's a possibility that you might be seeing an occasional op-ed from yours truly in the pages of Tallahassee reports.

1:27:33

You know, I am a frustrated writer. I have a book that I've been working on for two decades. And the reason why it's taken so long is I've just, every time I feel like I've got a handle on it, I go, no, that's not the way I want to do this. And so I rearrange everything and start all over, basically. And it's not a book about anything other than God and golf. in that order. But I love to write opinion. And every now and then I'll write on my blog page. But yeah, that could happen. So Steve, Steve will be in tomorrow. We'll talk about the school board meeting, I'm sure, and some other things. When we come back, we're going to set up Friday show. And Jose and I are going to have a very important discussion about Friday's show today. That's how detailed we are around here. We look that far ahead. We are planning. I'm already booking shows in December. Because there aren't a lot of shows in December because we have the 12 days of Preston starting December 18th. 46 minutes past the hour. It's the morning show with Preston Scott.

1:29:07

Yeah, I feel like I owe you an apology. I'm channeling my football team, the Green Bay Packers. And as much as I load the NFL, I love the Green Bay Packers. Because they're everything the NFL is not. They're wholesome. They're owned by people. They're not owned by an owner. They're owned by fans. No other sports team in all of sports is owned by fans. And when I say I'm channeling my team, there were times in today's show I was absolutely outstanding. And then there were times in my show today where I was just dreadful. I don't shake your head. It's just, it's true. My Packers, they didn't play a great first half against Pittsburgh. And then they smoked them. wore them out like a cheap suit. Good and bad. But they're, you know, overall, they're one of the better teams in the league. Not getting much respect. That's okay. I don't get much respect. I'll tell you, I don't get no respect. Anyway, I said I was going to set up Friday's show. We're going to talk about the best candy. What's the best Halloween candy? It's Halloween. I feel obliged to have the discussion in the second hour. What is the best Halloween candy and why? And yes, you have to pick one. You have to choose one. And I couldn't, I don't know that I could do that. Like, if I still had littles that were going out and getting candy, I would be raiding their bag like crazy. I'm a horrible person that way. If there is chocolate around, and it's not just chocolate. There are some other things. But there's so many great memories for me. Like in one of the neighborhoods where we lived in a din of Minnesota, whoever got to this one house first got caramel and nut-covered apples on a stick. Full big apples. She only made so many of them. Whoever got there first got them. I'm almost thinking of channeling that a little bit by getting a few full-sized candy bars and giving those to the first kids that show up. I don't know. I don't know, but we're going to talk about that on Friday. Brought to you by Baranow Heating and Air. It's the Morning Show 180 on WFLA. My thanks to Jerome Hudson. For joining us, Jeremy Cohen, attorney with Black and Cohen, went to the school board meeting last night. It's embarrassing. It's just, it's embarrassing. We're going to talk ambiguously about the way that people should behave and not pointing out. Why are we lecturing six people when one of them was guilty? I can't stand that. I cannot stand that. Look, there's a time and a place that you punish everybody for the actions of one because you're teaching the lesson of team, but that's not what this is. Why do we lecture everybody when one person was guilty of an action that might bring a lawsuit to the entire group? One person. How about we lecture that person?

1:33:02

I don't get it. I don't get it. It will never be excused in my brain. Never. Chuck Schumer blocking the GOP from reopening government for the 13th time. Just curious what happens if air traffic controllers go say, well, we're not, if you're not going to pay us, we're not working. Would you blame them? And what happens if that happens like, oh, I don't know, the week of Thanksgiving? Trump's being sued to keep money going to food stamps. Ironically, it's Democrats that are not allowing the government to reopen, and these are Democrat-run states that are suing. You can't make that up.
