  Speaker 1: You're listening to South Carolina's Warning News with Kelly Nash.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: All right, let's get into it, boy. Big Tim Scott
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: broke it down a little bit yesterday. I've had several
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: people talking to me, Christopher and saying, well, when are
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: you going to announce, like, like, I'm in charge of
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: the Lindsay Graham funeral per thing. I'm like, I don't know.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: I mean, it does seem like it's been taking a while.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: And yesterday Tim Scott basically said, it's too many world
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: dignitaries trying to come and pay tribute to Lindsey Graham,
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: so right now. Quote the funeral arrangements have been very
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: complicated by the fact that so many global leaders want
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: to attend. The process of figuring out when the National
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: Cathedral will be made available for the exact time as
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: the global leaders who want to come and all other
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: national leaders who want to be there is becoming more difficult.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: It's right now an impossibility to do it this week,
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: he said. He spoke with Darlene Graham, who had remained
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: hopeful that the services could be held next week. After
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: talking to Darlene, she suggested that there's some hope for
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: next week that we could still make it. Unfortunately, there's
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: now planning going into the following week.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: Wow. I didn't realize that National Cathedral was booked that
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: far in advance. I guess it is. And you've got
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: security concerns, you've got all these world leaders got Lindsay
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: Graham was a friend to everyone. I mean, he knew
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: every world leader. He was a globetrotter. And if people
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: have been accusing South Carolina of okay, why are you
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: putting politics before you even honor the man, before you
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: even put him in the ground. Well, unfortunately for us,
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: the timetable requires that we do, and so we've had
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: to talk about the election before we can even talk
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: about bearing Lindsey Graham.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: And did you see I don't know why it started
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: going viral a couple of days ago, but the twenty
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: fifteen interview with Lindsay Graham from I think it was CNBC.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: He was during he was getting ready to run for president,
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: or I think he'd already announced he was running for president,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: something to that extent. And I just loved watching that
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: video and it was it was powerful because he talked
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: about the death of his parents and how that was
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: navigated by him and then taking over his you know,
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: the care and upbringing of his sister. Also talked about, though,
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: if he had advice for senators, and he said, look,
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: if you want to be considered a someone who's serious
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: about national security, you can't stay in America. You've got
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: to go see how our security is implemented around the world.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: And he was talking about how many times he'd been
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: to Afghanistan, how many times he'd been to Iraq, how
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: many times he's been to Iran, And he was just
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: basically saying, I can see once we make a change,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: how it is affecting that nation, and then I can
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: come back and advise the president. Hey, listen, this thing worked,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: this thing's not working. And I mean the guy just
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: completely voted himself to his job. He was selfless in
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: that respect and made such a name for himself that
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: I mean, yes, there are other senators who would get
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: this kind of attention had they died early, but not
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: many true.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: And you know, we sometimes accused these senators and representatives
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: of globe trotting just to you know, take a paid vacation.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: But I mean he was working all the time and
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: apparently worked himself to death. Essentially with the way he died.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean he had great respect and he
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: never dodged an issue. You give him credit for that.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: I mean, there are some senators who are known, Okay,
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: all right, that's his issue. You know Rand Paul for example.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: You know, finances, He's always talking about the government and
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: wasteful spending. Lindsey Graham's issues were everything. He never dodged
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: an issue. If there was an issue confronting America, Lindsey
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: Graham was usually at the forefront of the argument, whether
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: you agreed with him or not.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: There I'm trying to remain remember who said this about him,
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: but they were taking a long flight with him, and
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: they asked them about, you know something about when did
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: you feel comfortable like kind of being one of the
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: leaders in the Senate, And he said I can't remember
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: exact words what he said, but it was to the
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: extent of I kept thinking they were in charge. And
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: then after a little while, I realized there is no day,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: and if there is a day, they don't know what
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: the blank they're doing. So I just started giving my
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: opinion and.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: It worked for him, and it worked for him for years.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: You know, we were fairly critical of him here at times,
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: and Lindsey Graham certainly did not always operate under you know,
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: what South Carolina considered to be its political bent. But
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: at the same time, you know, Lindsey Graham, I don't
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: think we realized in South Carolina how he was viewed
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: by the rest of the country, in the world for
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: that matter, how important he was to national politics.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: And I just find it interesting Tim Scott announcing that
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: maybe it won't even happen next week, that the funeral
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: may be taking place the week after that, and then
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: goes on to say that they'll be My understanding is
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: as soon as you get through with the one here
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: in DC, they're going to move quickly to have a
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: funeral service down in South Carolina, probably within a day
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: or two.
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: And I'd be surprised if he didn't lie in state,
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: in the South Carolina State House as well.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm wondering as well. I'm imagining they're going
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: to want to give the people an opportunity to come
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: by and pay their tributes to the fallen senator. But
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: the Benjamin Nett and Yahoo announced yesterday I'm flying into
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: DC this weekend specifically for this Lindsey Graham thing. I
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: don't know, what does he have like a private thing
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: going on or whatever, or is he just going to
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: stay here for ten days?
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know unless he knows something we don't. Yeah,
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: And I mean there will be tremendous security concerns depending
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: on when this funeral takes place, so it will probably
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: take a week or two of planning.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. Yeah, this is going to be a very big deal.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: So we're going to keep our eyes on that, and
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: we're going to break down some more of the national
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: stories that are going on as well today, not just
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: here in South Carolina, but all around the country and
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: around the world. What's going on with Iran, what's going
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: on with the President's speech tonight. We've got some previews
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: of that and other things. Is we roll out with
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: South Carolina's Morning.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: News, your news, traffic, weather and information stations. This is
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: South Carolina's Morning News on one O three point five FM,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: five sixty AM WVOC, and ninety four to three WSC
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: NOW Kelly Nash.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: And here we are at South Carolina's Morning News Command Central,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: where we're constantly scanning the news looking for not only
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: stories that impact you, but might be interesting like this
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: one Arcola, Texas, which is apparently a small suburb just
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: outside of Houston. KHOU Television reporting this morning that the mayor,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Fred Burton has been arrested. And this is not probably
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: going to be related to Donald Trump's speech tonight, but
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: it is another case of illegal voting. According to the authorities,
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: the I guess soon to be former mayor was in
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: a runoff and he went ahead and encouraged three people
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: who he knew were not eligible to vote, to go
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: ahead and vote for him. He was arrested last night.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: He's charged at the Fort ben County Jail. Bond set
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: Wednesday night. They were set at twenty five thousand dollars
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: for each for the illegal voting charges, twenty thousand dollars
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: for the misuse of official information charge, and twenty thousand
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: dollars for a fraud charge, in fifteen thousand dollars for
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: the tampering with the government record charge. I mean, this
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: is a city of two thousand people, and when you
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: think that power is not corrupt people, this is a
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: This is like being the class president two thousand people,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: and this guy's willing to violate local, state, and federal
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: law to try to cling to power and get illegal
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: votes for himself. This is imagine what they're going to
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: do at a national level.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Two thousand people, but he tried to influence three votes.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: In a runoff election which had a grand total of
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: four hundred people voting. Okay, so yes, three votes made
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: a difference. And that's why he's in jail today. And again,
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: what kind of perks come with being the mayor of
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: Fort Bend or whatever the heck the name of it?
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: What is it, our Cola? I apology, Yeah, I don't
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: want to, you know, disrespect our Coola, But I mean
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: this is not I would imagine a very prestigious gig.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: This is the kind of this has got to be
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: a part time job at best. I mean, hey, is
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: the mayor of Columbia still a part time job?
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: Yes?
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so, I mean imagine the salary for the Arcola
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Meyer position is probably five grand a year something like that.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: It sounds like he tampered with more money than that,
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: because he's also been accused of a few other things. Yeah,
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: along along with tampering with votes.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the two counts of illegal voting, one kind of
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: misuse of official information. I don't know what that means
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: one kuind of fraud when kind of tampering with government records,
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: all of which are felonies. So you're sixty eight years
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: old and you're going to go out like this. This
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: is but again to the bigger point of what Donald
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: Trump's going to be addressing tonight, the idea that there's
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: foreign governments tampering with our elections. It's interesting that the
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: Democrats and the mainstream media pretty much have said, we
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: don't want to hear it, we're not interested in it.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: And like you and I were talking about yesterday, if
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: he's going to go back to twenty twenty, a lot
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: of Republicans don't want to hear it, especially about what's
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: going on with Georgia, because we really think that Georgia
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: is that is a very winnable state for the Republicans
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: this year. But if you start reiterating these old voter
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: fraud claims, people are going to maybe tune out a
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: little bit or maybe just can say, oh, the conspiracy theories,
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: but the idea that people want to tamper with the
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: US federal elections should not be surprising. No.
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: The other fear I think with arguing too much about
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty is people say, all right, well then my
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: vote's not going to count. I'll just sit on my
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: hands and stay home in November. And you don't want
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: that either, especially if you're a Republican. So yeah, you've
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: got He's got to be careful with that message tonight
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: and what he tells people. But this case you just
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: brought up in our coola shows, you know, Democrats also
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: in addition to saying we don't want to hear it anymore,
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: they also say it's not possible in America. We've got
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: too many safeguards already. We don't need the Save America Act,
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: we don't need anything else. We're already we already have
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: election integrity. Well, this goes to show even in a
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: small town, it's easy to do.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I guess they're back would be, well, he
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: got caught, the system worked. It's yes, I understand that
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: the system did catch this guy. I don't know exactly
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: the backstory. Khou does not really tell me how had
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: they caught him, But I'm happy he got caught. But
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: I also know that many crimes go unsolved. And when
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: you continue to deny that there's an actual problem, or
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: you minimize it then that diverts attention from the actual
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: crime of illegal aliens voting and people who are not
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: registered to vote in these towns. And I don't know
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: if I ever told the story Christopher on the air
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: when I first moved here from New York. I moved
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: here to Charleston in two thousand and three. It was
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: in like two thousand and nine, there was a story
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: about cleaning the voter rolls. I checked. I was still
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: a registered voter in New York, even though I had
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: registered in South Carolina, which should have taken me off
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: the voter rolls. I don't know if I was still
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: voting in New York. Maybe I suddenly switched from a
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: very consistent Republican vote in the to the mid to
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: late two thousands, so suddenly he's a very big Democrat supporter.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know what happened, but I had to actually
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: write a letter up to the New York voter roles
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: to get my name removed. They should be cleaning those things.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: That's that shouldn't be the responsibility of the citizen to
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: have to get their name off the rolls. And that's
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: another way that they abuse the system, and the Democrat
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: systems but anyway, we'll hear more from the President about
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: that tonight. We will have some more stuff that's going
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: on right here in South Carolina as the morning rolls
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: on with South Carolina's Morning News.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: This is South Carolina's Morning News on one O three
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: point five FM and five sixty AM WVOC, Columbia and
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: ninety four to three WSC Charleston.
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: Now, Kelly Nash.
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: So, Merle's Inlet is home to the biggest uh what
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: is it called an oyster man made oyster reef in
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: South Carolina and one of the biggest ones in the country,
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: and they're looking to expand upon that. And they're saying
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: that in Oor County, the number one problem I guess
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: facing people who want to go out into the water
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: is bacteria near the swimmers. You know, you got those
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: big washouts that they have and all kinds of storm
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: water swashing through there with nastiness in it. And apparently Christopher,
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: they're saying that the oysters are like the number one
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: way to get rid of all that bacteria.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they I mean the water flows through there and
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: it filters through those oyster shells, live oysters. Yeah, what
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: you've got to do now is attract those live or
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: grow those live oysters, and they're trying to put some
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: oyster beds into place that would filter some of that
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: water out.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: It says an adult oyster can filter up to fifty
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: gallons a day. One oyster filters fifty gallons a day.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: So they've already had a huge success, they say in
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: Merle's Inlet with this and how they want to expand it.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: The problem has been and I'm kind of confused as
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: to how this became a problem. I'm just reading it
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: from the this was what it's the state newspaper. The
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: project is entirely dependent on the amount of oyster shells
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: that are recycled. Over one hundred restaurants serve oysters in
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: Orri County, but only one participates in the recycling of
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: the oyster shells.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: The rest just dump them in a landfill.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: Yes, and that says or County lagging behind individual South
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: Carolina cities, many that are many miles from the coast.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: So I don't know how did this get started in
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: like inland cities, but they didn't figure out how to
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: do it in Myrtle Beach.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: I get. I don't know why a restaurant wouldn't participate.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, if you're going to dump the shells anyway,
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: why not just hand them off to the city or
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: the county and say here, use them.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: Yes, that would seem very simple, But of course we
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: need we need more funding. If they're looking for grant
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: funding to create a collection route to increase the number
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: of participating restaurants without placing an additional task on them.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: So I guess they're hoping to have some truck that
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: goes around and kind of except the oyster shells for everybody.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: But yes, if we look, I'm not against government spending
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: money on stuff like this if it's something that you
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: can directly affect the quality of life, especially in an
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: area like Myrtle Beach where so much is dependent upon
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: how many people want to come. And if they come
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: down here and they're like, gosh, the beaches suck because
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: it's just filled with bacteria, can't swim in the water, well,
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: then let's let's invest a little bit and if a
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: natural resources like an oyster can clean it up, I
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: have no opposition to it. Do you see any reason
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: to oppose this?
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: I don't think. So that's one of the things I've
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: always been uncomfortable with with Myrtle Beach, and you see
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: it more there than I think you do in other places,
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: all these wastewater drains right on the beach. Yeah and yeah.
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: So if they can make people more comfortable about coming
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: to those beaches, then I'm all for it.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: And I guess they would put these oysters up upstream
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: so by the time the waste water comes out, it's
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: already been cleaned up. So anyway, maybe you've got thoughts
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: on that, Maybe you've maybe you're somebody who's already donating
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: your oyster shells. Let us know on the talkback feature.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: This is South Carolina's Morning News.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: This is South Carolina's morning news on one O three
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: point five FM and five sixty AM WVOC and ninety
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: four to three WSC.
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: Now here's Kelly Nash.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: Well, we just heard in the news break that the
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: Vice president was on the Joe Rogan podcast yesterday discussing
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: the Epstein files. And look, I'm obviously not an advisor
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: to jd Vance. I would like for him to stop
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: talking about it because what it seems like he makes
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: it worse the more he talks about it. Yesterday, If
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: you get an opportunity or if you've already heard it,
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: he starts opening up all kinds of conspiracy theories. He
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: went down about three or four different rabbit holes regarding
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: tax fraud allegation, regarding how he could be a member
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: of Masad. You know that the Israelis were controlling him.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, why would you want to just keep talking
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: about this.
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: It's almost a distraction at this point from from what's
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: really important. And I'm not sure most Americans, in spite
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: of you know what was said at the hearings on
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: Capitol Hill yesterday regarding Todd Blanche, I don't think most
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: Americans are paying attention to the Epstein files anymore.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: And at this you know, one of the things that JD.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: Van said that I thought should have just been the
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: jump off point was he said, any information that the
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: government might have had would have been compiled in two
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: thousand and six, and we don't have any so I
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: don't know if it was destroyed in Florida in two
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: thousand and six, or or if they never had anymore.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: So anything else is just speculation at this point, and
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: people's imaginations are running wild. And if you didn't have
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: social media, you wouldn't have I don't think any push
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: for more stuff on the Epstein files. The Epstein Files
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: is a great ideal, This ideal that there is a
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: shadow group of very wealthy businessmen and political influencers who
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: are just kind of manipulating children for their devious objectifications
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: and all that sort of thing. That that is, that
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: is like a Bond villain movie. But even if it happened,
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: which I don't believe that it was at the level
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: that most people are thinking. But even if it did,
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: that is that has been destroyed. He's been either by
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: self infliction or by prison guard or by the Clintons
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: or whatever. He is off the earth and has been
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: off the earth now for what six seven years, and
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: we have no new victims. We have no By the way,
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: when they always talk about justice for those victys, there
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: was a like several hundred million dollar payout made as well.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: If most victims got the kind of justice that these
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: women got, they'd all be rich. But again, it's not
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: to minimize the fact that they were sexually assaulted when
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: they were young people. But they are a group of
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: people who have had an inordinate amount of attention paid
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: to them for twenty years now, and if they want
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: further quote unquote justice, then they can reveal the names
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: of the men that they say that they're afraid to
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: tell us about. But I guess we're supposed to keep
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: looking for.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: I think most Americans realize that we've learned all we're
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: going to learn. Everything else is just speculation or will
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: remain secret forever.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: And I agree with you, Christopher. I don't think most
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: Americans care exactly that much at this point about it.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: And if I could advise JD. Van stopped talking about
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: that and stop talking and stop thinking you can negotiate
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: with the dang Iranians. All right, maybe you've got thoughts
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: on that. Let us know on the talkback feature on
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: the iHeartRadio app. This is South Carolina's Morning.
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: News, Live from the state Capitol.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: This is South Carolina's Morning News with Kelly Nash.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: It seems there's nothing John Thune can't screw up. So
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: recent survey sixty eight percent of Americans would like to
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: stop changing the clocks, and the vast majority of them
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: would like it to be daylight savings time permanently. I
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: disagree with that position, but that's okay, that's what americans want,
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: that's what they should get it past the House on
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: Tuesday overwhelmingly. The only one from South Carolina who voted
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: against it James Cliburn. But now it's moving to the
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: Senate and John Thune has already said not for it,
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: not for it. Also, surprisingly Tom Cotton is not going
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: to be for it. There's they've got like thirteen or
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: fourteen senators who've already spoken out against it. But again,
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: the sixty eight percent of Americans want this, Why can't
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: it's so easy just bring it up for a vote.
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: You could knock this out before lunch today if you wanted.
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: You would think so. I mean, if it's that many
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: Americans are in favor of it, then why are I
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: understand the arguments? And there are a lot of people
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: who say, Okay, this is going to mean you know,
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: kids at the bus stop in dark darkness in wintertime. Yes,
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: leave it one way or the other and stick to it.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I would prefer it to be that, like you said,
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: the earlier way, but that's also because I go to
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: bed early. But you know, either or let's just pick
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: one and move on and get it handled. My gosh, this.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: Is South Carolina's Morning News with Kelly Nash.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: You know Minnesota Governor Tim Walls is a case study
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: in why liberal societies fail, and yesterday he gave what
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: I would say is a mass class and why liberal
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: societies just crash and burn. We're going to break down
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: some of his news conference yesterday, and we got plenty
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: more to get to as well.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: You're listening to South Carolina's Morning News with Kelly Nash Hi.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: There, thanks for starting your day with us. Christopher Thompson here,
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: and yesterday KTTC Minnesota carried a little snippet of the
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: Tim Walls press conference. Tim Walls, as you know, part
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: of a three person commission, also Keith Ellison, the Attorney
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: General for Minnesota, and the Supreme Court Chief Justice for
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: the state. They make up the three person panel that
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: decided to give a full pardon to a man who
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: twenty plus years ago was having sexual relations with a
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: ten year old girl. Not once, not twice, did it
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: numerous times over a two year period. She finally called
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: the authorities and he tried to bribe. He offered her
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: ten dollars. Then admitted to the police and the authorities
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: and everybody, Yes, this is what I did. But this
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: is the way we do things where I'm from in Laos.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: This is the way we raise young girls. Thankfully, the
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: police did not care about the cultural differences at the time,
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: but anyway, they've had an order of deportation on this
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: guy for since two thousand and six. It's been a
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: case of hide the illegal for twenty years. In Minnesota.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: They caught him in November of twenty twenty five, and
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: a Supreme Court justice in that state ruled that the
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: federal authorities had to let him go even though he
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: again had an order for twenty years to be deported.
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: For whatever reason, they complied and let him go, and
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: it became a bigger deal once that kind of hit
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: the news wires, and Marco Rubio last week revoked his
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: status again and then Homeland Security went and got him
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: and he's now back in Laos. So here is the
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: report yesterday with Tim Walls's answer to all of that.
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: For the first time.
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: Governor Tim Walls responding on camera today to the part
• 24:08
  Speaker 5: and it pushed back out of Washington following a June
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: decision he supported.
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: Did that make us any safer?
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Did that make the children that are left behind any
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: more stable?
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: Did it improve the idea that we.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: Can't all be judged by our worst day, and I
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: want to be very clear, these are horrific crimes.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a pretty horrific crime.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: And yes, by the way, that guy even to show
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: you how liberal Minnesota was twenty plus years ago, he
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: spent a grand total of nada. Now one day in jail,
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: nothing so and now he's got a full pardon. And
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: obviously it was an attempt to try to keep him
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: in the country because they love illegals, especially they apparently
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: love criminals.
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: And how flippant can you be if you're a Minnesota citizen.
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: Aren't you yelling at Tim Walls? Did it make us
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: any safer? Yes, it made us the minute. The minute
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: this man was shipped out of the country, we all
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: feel safer.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: He said something to the extent of they based it
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: on two things. One, they don't have any reason to
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: believe he's been reviolating. To the victim did send in
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: a letter saying that she forgave him, and that's a
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: good thing for her to forgive. That does her no
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: good to carry that grudge. And so anybody who's been
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: violated in any way, I would encourage you to try
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: to release yourself and give forgiveness to the to the perpetrators. However,
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: that's not what criminal justice is about. Society. The reason
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: Minnesota is a hell hole, in California, in Washington State
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: and Oregon is because they don't enforce criminal law. You've
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: got the shoplifting is so bad in these places. Walmart
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: goes out of business in some of these towns. You
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: know how bad you have to shoplift to make Walmart unprofitable.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: That's almost unheard of. You've got, You've got like a
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: zombie apocalypse of drug riddled people wandering your streets, defecating everywhere.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: The homeless parade, he goes on and on for miles
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: and miles, because you you come up with excuses. Oh though,
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: well that was their culture there. Oh they had a
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: tough upbringing. Oh they really needed to steal the food.
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: Oh they needed No, it's not. If you want societies
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: to work, you need to have law and order. I'm
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: so thankful we live in South Carolina, where from the
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: Attorney General's office on down the sheriff's departments, everybody seems
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: to understand that if you commit a crime, even if
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: you're a great person, you still got to go to jail.
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: And Tim Wall saying we shouldn't all be judged by
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: what we've done on our worst day. I mean, for
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: most of us, our worst day might be speeding or
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: you know, something like that. Yes, it's breaking the law,
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: but we didn't. We didn't injure anybody, We didn't hurt anybody.
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: We just you know, pushed the speed limit a little bit.
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: This guy's worst day was assaulting multiple times. Yeah, a
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: ten year old girl.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: Well he I mean it was a bad two year
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: period because it was from ten to twelve that he
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: was assaulting that girl. And it was only when she
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: became twelve that she kind of realized, oh, this is criminal.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: What's happening to me? What a tragic story. And I
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: pray to God he's wrong. He's lying about that's how
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: we do things in Laos. I hope that's not how
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: they raised ten year old girls in Laos. But he
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: is now home in Laos, and Tim Walls is mourning
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: his departure, as is most of the Minnesota government. Again,
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: for any of you stuck behind liberal lines listening on
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: the iHeartRadio app, if you can get out, it is
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: so much better on the other side. Like I said,
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: I escaped New York twenty plus years ago to get
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: to Charleston. I have not regretted it one second. You
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: won't either get out while you still can. Oh my gosh,
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: are we any better off now now that the criminal
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: child molester's gone? Yeah?
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah you are. But Kelly, don't judge him on
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: his worst day.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, I haven't been drunk in decades, but if
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: I got drunk tonight and drove my car and injured somebody,
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: I need to be judged. In order for society. People
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: in society have to feel safe, and one of the
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: ways they feel safe is they know if I get
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: out of line, bad things will happen to me. So
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: I don't get out of line, and I trust that
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: everybody else feels the same way. And the people get
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: out aline go to jail. Or let's bring back mental institutions.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: They're very worried about incarceration rates. Send them to met
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: Where are the lunatic asylums? We need more of them.
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: And if you wound up injuring a victim when you
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: were parading around drunk, yes, let's hope the victim did
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: eventually forgive you, But that doesn't forgive your crime.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: Exactly the consequences of your actions need to be paid for.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: And again so for everybody to see it. You don't
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: get two different levels of some sort of justice here, Oh,
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: because she forgave him, Well, then guess what's going to
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: happen if that's If that's the standard, every criminal is
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: going to try to force the victim to Oh, I
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: forgive them. Because I don't forgive them, They're going to
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: kill my parents. I mean, come on, man, to grow up.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: Tim Walls Gollly again, thoughts and prayers to everybody who
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: has to live in a liberal state today. All right,
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: coming up, we have the View's attention. The View is
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: talking about us yesterday, Christopher.
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: Yes, it can't be good.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: We'll talk about that and more as South Carolina's Morning News.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: Rolls on your news, traffic, weather and information stations. This
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: is South Carolina's Morning News on one O three point
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: five FM, five sixty AM WVOC, and ninety four to
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: three WSC now Kelly Nash.
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: Well, most of Americans and pretty much all South Carolinians
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: were very moved by the touching tribute to Lindsey Graham
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: and the idea that not only the president but our
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: governor decided to use his sister, Darlene Graham Nordwan to
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: fill the last couple of months of his service in
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: the Senate. I say most Americans, because yesterday on the
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: View it became rather obvious that Sonny host And and
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: Joy Behar take great exception to that idea. I don't
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: love it.
• 30:22
  Speaker 6: You know, she'll she'll be the first woman to be
• 30:26
  Speaker 6: a US Senator in South Carolina in the history.
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: Of the state.
• 30:30
  Speaker 6: And I think that that's just it's just fundamentally wrong
• 30:34
  Speaker 6: that South Carolina and South Carolina just couldn't elect a woman,
• 30:38
  Speaker 6: and this is the only way that it was done.
• 30:40
  Speaker 6: I think the experience doesn't matter. And while she is
• 30:43
  Speaker 6: a certified optician, and while she has done great work
• 30:46
  Speaker 6: in that field, I don't think that she should be
• 30:49
  Speaker 6: representing the people of South Carolina in the US Senate.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: I just don't.
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: It's the very definition of a DEI.
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: Correct.
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: Correct, It's everything that the Republican part.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: Stands again, and everything that the Republican Party stands against
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: is a DEI higher, is what they're saying. Maybe they
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: don't know what DEI means, Christopher, Do we need to
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: give them a definition of what a DEI higher is.
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: They do understand she's simply a placeholder until January, right,
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: and they do understand we're holding an election right now
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: to replace Lindsey Graham.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: And by the way, that I love that little shot
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: that she took at us. They can't elect a woman
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: back to back. We elected not only a woman, but
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: she happens to be a person of color. To your
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: to just check another box for you who care about
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: such things, We don't care about those types of things.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: We just care about who's qualified. But Nikki Haley proudly
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: represented us not only here as our governor, but then
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: was up to h the ambassadorship. Yeah. No, you're not
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: making me feel any worse. I don't feel bad that
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: we have Darlene Graham nord On. She is not a
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: DEI hire. This is not to check a box. This
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: is a fantastic story that the view refuses to acknowledge.
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: And this is not a precedent setting situation either. Most cases,
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: it's the widow of a senator who dies suddenly, who is,
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: you know, then appointed to replace their husband for the
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: remainder of his term. In this case, Lindsay Graham wasn't married,
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: so it's just it's his sister. But I mean this
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: has been done countless times over the years.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: You know, Debbie Dingle is a representative from Michigan, and
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: she the Dingle name has been in Congress now, I
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: think over one hundred years. It started with like well,
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: because she married into the field. I think John Dingall
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: was her husband's name. He's the I believe, still the
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: longest serving member of Congress in history. It was like
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: fifty eight years or something, and then before that was
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: like his father. Well, when he passed, she was appointed,
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: and then she ran for and won election over and
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: over and over again. It was so funny because I
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: had done a video about her. Literally she literally fell
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: asleep during a congressional hearing, and so I was mocking that.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: And then two weeks later I happened to be in DC,
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: not this recent trip but the year previous, and I
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: met her and she was so nice to me. And
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking, I totally just wrecked you on social media
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: the other day that she was a nice lady, just
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: not at this point. Probably shouldn't be serving if you're
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: falling asleep during congressional hearings. But yes, the view I
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: liked Alan Wilson tweeted that out and say, congratulations, darling,
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: you've been a senator for less than twenty four hours
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: and the women of the view are already mad at you.
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: You're off to a great start. There you go, Lindsay
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: would be proud. All right, more to come. This is
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: South Carolina's Morning News.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: This is South Carolina's Morning News on one O three
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: point five FM and five sixty AM WVOC, Columbia and
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: ninety four to three WSC Charleston.
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: Now Kelly Nash.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: And with me is Christopher Thompson, sports director at Christopher
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: Have you ever been down to Cartersville, Georgia?
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: Know where it is? I've only been there once.
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: Okay. They've got something called Lake Point Sports in Cartersville, Georgia,
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: which is apparently just a destination for like high school championships.
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: It is a massive complex for travel ball, for championships.
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: I mean they for sports year round.
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: Well and here in the Midlands. They want to replicate
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: that apparently, so you know, you know where the tennis
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: center is in Casey. They want to take over three
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: hundred acres and build a massive sports complex and like
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: they say, this facility will be modeled after a facility
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: that's already been recognized nationally. It would come with a hotel,
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: all kinds of you know things they're needed, but also
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: profitable opportunities. And the way they would pay for all
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: this is the I guess the homeowners in Lexington County.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: Let me just read this directly from the state newspaper.
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: The bond issue needs to be approved by the county
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: council members in three separate readings and the subject of
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: a public hearing provisionally scheduled for August eleventh council meeting.
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: Gibson tells the county council that a tax assessment of
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: approximately fourteen dollars and eighty eight cents on one hundred
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: thousand dollars home would go towards paying down the bond,
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: and over the life of the bond, the amount of
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: the millage will decrease as the assessed value of our
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: complex site increases, so it's about seventy four million dollars.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: I think they're trying to get, uh, you know, could
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: this be a great thing? I absolutely, I think it
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: could be a great thing.
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: I mean, you see these these sports complex it's even
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: smaller ones that attract you know, maybe eight teams a weekend.
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: You're talking about those teams, their parents, anybody else who
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: travels with the team. They're eating in restaurants, they're staying
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: in your local hotels, They're patronizing your local businesses. It's
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: a booming business. I mean, whether it's summer or these
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: days winter, at anytime you're talking about volleyball, you're talking
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: about baseball. Is it big enough business? I will see
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: Lexington County taxpayers. They're a pretty conservative bunch, but they're
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: doing a pretty good job of selling this so far
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: as as being you know, this would be the pre
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: eminent Southeastern sports complex.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: Well at least as good as the one down in Georgia. Yeah,
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: I guess. And as they said, there's nothing like this
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: in the state currently, although there are some I guess
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: out in the Myrtle Beach area that have an indoor
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: facilities like this one would have, but nothing would rival.
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: This combines it all everything you would want if you
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: are a travel team coach and you're looking for someplace
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: for your team to play.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: And centrally located throughout the state of South Carolina. So
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: everybody's no more than what a couple hours away from it,
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: So This could be a huge addition for South Carolina.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: I know our friend Bill Shanahan's involved with this as well,
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: and he's very excited about it, very excited about it.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: But again, you point out, you know, fourteen dollars and
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: eighty eight cents one hundred thousand dollars home median home
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: price in Lexington County, I'm going to guess is around
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: three fifty to four hundred at this point. So you're
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: looking at the you know, fifty bucks extra or so
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: is are you guys ready to pay another fifty bucks
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: a year for this?
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: They'll have to sell the value as far as tourism
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: and all the dollars that will be coming in as
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: a way to pass this.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it'll be it'll be interesting to see that. The
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: council meeting on August eleventh, will keep our eyes on it,
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: because again, this would impact the entire state of South Carolina,
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: all high schools, all travel balls, basketball, baseball, all of it.
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: So exciting stuff possibly coming to the Midlands, and well
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: we're following that in other stories. This is South Carolina's
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: Morning News from.
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: The Midlands to the Lull Country.
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: This South Carolina's Morning News on one O three point
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: five FM and five sixty AM WVOC and ninety four
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: to three WSC.
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: Now here's Kelly Nash.
• 38:12
  Speaker 7: Hey, guys, it's Steve from Phoenix and South Carolina. Lived
• 38:15
  Speaker 7: in both places. I'm in South Carolina right now. You
• 38:17
  Speaker 7: should look at the story at the Mesas Sports Complex
• 38:20
  Speaker 7: in Phoenix. Check out where all that bond money went.
• 38:23
  Speaker 7: A father and a son made out with hundreds of
• 38:25
  Speaker 7: millions of dollars. They are now in jail. Have to
• 38:28
  Speaker 7: be very careful with who you deal with with these
• 38:31
  Speaker 7: sports complexes. It can be an ugly, ugly business.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: Ugh, oh my goodness. Well, you know, first off, thank
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: you Steve for listening. Appreciate that. Appreciate using the talkback
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: feature on the iHeartRadio app. That's the easiest and best
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: way to get a hold of us here on South
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: Carolina's morning news. But to your point of fraud, corruption,
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: those types of things, absolutely, you have to be very
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: that's well, it starts with the elected officials. Are we
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: careful with who we elect? I'd like to think that
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: the people of Lexington County are very careful. Now they're
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: going to have an opportunity on August eleventh at the
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: County council meeting to let their voices be heard. And
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: you know, I think Richland County probably learned a little
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: bit on the penny tax thing. You know, we tried
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: warning against that penny tax back in twenty fourteen. I
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: think it was they got a pass, or maybe it
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: was twenty twelve, but yeah, that tax is it turns
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: out to be a slush fund often.
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: Well, the good news for Lexington County is that a
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: the Recreation and Aging Commission is well respected in this
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: state and they're not wing to go around wasting dollars. Now,
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: is there oversight needed always? I don't know. I looked
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: at this case in Mesa, Arizona. I don't know how
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: a father and son went around selling bonds for a
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: sports complex. I mean, who's they're going door to door
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: selling bonds and saying, okay, you give this money and
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: you sign this over and you know, we'll take care
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: of everything and then you'll get money back. How did
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: that work?
• 40:04
  Speaker 7: Is?
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: What is that? What's happening?
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: Apparently?
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: So goodness great? Well, you know the fraudsters are going
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: to fraud.
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true, but in this case it will be
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: Lexington County's government that will be running the show.
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: They need to put out an order. Nobody's coming to
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: knock on your door and do you know a house
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: assessment or anything like that. You owe this or you're
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: going to jail. No, and that is not going to happen,
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: all right, So right now again, next opportunity for the
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: people of Lexington County to talk about this will be
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: at the August eleventh County Council meeting. Do you want
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: to have your millite rates pretty dramatically increased? I think
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: we said it was about fourteen dollars and eighty cents
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: per every one hundred thousand dollars that your home is
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: valued at. They say that that milite rate will drop
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: as the evaluation of the Sports complex Center, which will
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: be the biggest one not only in South Carolina, but
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: one of the biggest in the country, is completed and
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: should generate a lot of business for the state of
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: South Carolina. And of course everybody who lives in the
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: state benefits at that point because you now have a
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: place to come, whether you're living in the Low Country
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: or up in Oray County or up in Greenville, whatever.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: This will be a world class facility for high school
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: championships and other things like that.
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: So its tourism is huge right now. I mean these
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: travel ball teams and we're talking about soccer, we're talking
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: about baseball, even pickleball these days. I mean, that's big
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: bucks right now.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: I didn't see do they have pickleball.
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: I don't know if it's listed, but I mean it
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: wouldn't take much to convert one of those fields into
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: a pickleball court, probably.
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: Three hundred acres. Anyway, We're going to keep our eye
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: on that. Also, what was I just reading about? There
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: was a story here, Oh, we the South Carolina Election Commission.
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: Are they getting us in trouble? Are we about to
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: get sued by the feds. We're going to talk about
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: that story.
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: Next live from the state Capitol.
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: This is South Carolina's Morning News with Kelly Nash.
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: I don't know, I wish he had worded it a
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: little bit differently. South Carolina Election Commission Executive Director Conway
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: Belangia quote, we don't know what we're asking for. Oy
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: oh boy, come on, you can't do better than that, Conway.
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: We don't know what we're asking for. All right. So
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: here's the situation. As we all know, we need to
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: have a special primary to replace Lindsey Graham. The problem
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: is that we're in violation of federal law by doing so.
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: Apparently there's a federal law that says you have to
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: wait forty five days minimum in order to mail out
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: ballots to service members in order to have this happen
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: for us. We can't do that. We can't wait that long.
• 42:43
  Speaker 3: Well, our state law says we've got to immediately act.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: Yes, so our state law. But again, federal law is
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: always going to be over the state law. But yeah,
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: he says, we're not waiting now. They did reach out,
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: they said to the federal the Feds on this, and
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: they have not got back to them. And that's what
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: he said. We don't even know what we're asking for.
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: All we're doing is letting them know what we have
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: to work with, what we're dealing with, and we're going
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: to take it from here.
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: Well, you're asking for a waivers. What you're asking for
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: in the federal government's given that before in extenuating circumstances
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: like this, that's what you're asking for.
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: Maybe you should be the spokesperson for the South Carolina
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: election Commissions.
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: I would have spun that a little differently, But okay,
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: we don't.
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: Know what we're asking for now. I do not like
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: this decision, Christopher. Maybe you feel differently about it. Again,
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: we heard it in the news update. Eligible voters who
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: did not cast a ballot in the Democrat primary in
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: June can vote anyone who didn't vote in the Democrat primary.
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: I would have much rather it been only people who
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: voted in the Republican primary.
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: I don't think you can say that legally. I mean,
• 43:54
  Speaker 3: because we still have open primaries right now, so you
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: can't close it just for this one and say Republicans only. So, yeah,
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: if you did that, was that ruling officially came out yesterday.
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: If you voted Democrat in the first primary, you can't
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: vote this time around. Otherwise you're eligible.
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: So this invites what we like to call corruption and
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: dark money. And so there will be a very sinister
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: move by the Democrats to flood the ballot boxes with
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: people who didn't vote in the previous primaries, to just
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: swing for the most extreme radical whoever they think is
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: the most unelectable Republican.
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: It might happen, although I think Republicans still have the
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: numbers in this state to overcome that do. We still
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: don't have an official other than Mark Lynch. I don't
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: think we have anyone who's officially declared yet, have.
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: We No, I have not seen anybody officially declared other.
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: Than Mark Lynch, who's still hanging around out there. And
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: that's obviously not the Kookball that South Carolina wants to elect.
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: It will have to be somewhat other than him.
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, Cookball is the official description.
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: It's trying to be nice, trying to be nice through him.
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: There you go. You're welcome, mister Lynch. There's the nice
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: city of the day for you. All right, We'll see
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: who else gets involved. Obviously there's a lot of speculation
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: about Ralph Norman getting involved and some other people, a
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: lot of people hoping that Nikki Haley gets involved. We'll
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: see how it plays out. We'll keep our an eye
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: on that and other things with South Carolina's Morning News.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: This is South Carolina's Morning News with Kelly Nash.
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: All right, So coming up tonight, all eyes well, at
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: least people who care about fair elections will be watching
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: President Donald Trump. We're gonna be speaking with Rory O'Neil.
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: He's got some insights as to what we can expect
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: this evening, and maybe some other news as well, because
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: it's always fun to talk to Rory. He's got his
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: finger on the pulse of all that's happening and so
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: always a special treat to welcome him to the broadcast.
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: So we've got that. Also, maybe talk a little bit
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: about that Blue Angels flyover. We thought we had a
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: close one here, you know, on our beach.
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: Pretty low.
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: My gosh, that's incredible what they did down there in
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: Florida with the well, no injuries, thankfully, but that was
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: quite the spectacle. So that and more is South Carolina's
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: Morning News continues.
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: You're listening to South Carolina's Morning News with Kelly Nash and.
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: People who love free and open elections and democracy. I'm
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: sure we'll all be gathered around their television sites tonight
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: to hear what President Donald J. Trump has to say.
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: And a little sneak peek of that, we got Roy
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: O'Neal on the phone. Good morning, sir, Hey there, Kelly,
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: good morning. So yeah, have you had any insights at
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: all as to this proof that the President's going to
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: be bringing forward tonight?
• 46:51
  Speaker 5: No specific So we heard from the President sort of
• 46:53
  Speaker 5: tease this speech a little bit on Tuesday when he
• 46:56
  Speaker 5: was in the Oval Office with reporters, saying it would
• 46:59
  Speaker 5: be about voting machines, but he didn't liberate elaborate, saying
• 47:03
  Speaker 5: it would.
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: Concern that subject.
• 47:05
  Speaker 4: End quote.
• 47:05
  Speaker 5: We'll have a couple of other things to say.
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: Unquote.
• 47:08
  Speaker 5: The White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt was asked about
• 47:11
  Speaker 5: the speech yesterday, she said, have to tune in tonight
• 47:14
  Speaker 5: to find out exactly what it's going to say. We
• 47:17
  Speaker 5: have a report from CBS News this morning that perhaps
• 47:20
  Speaker 5: the President will discuss some previously undisclosed evidence that China
• 47:25
  Speaker 5: has been meddling in US elections. Now, exactly what meddling
• 47:29
  Speaker 5: means is also a little gray.
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and he did. I think it was the President
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: who put when he originally posted it not Russia, because
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: that has always been the thing, that Russia was meddling.
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: Is it surprising that foreign governments want to meddle with
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: the US democracy? Probably shouldn't be. I was surprised by
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: CNN and Abby Hoffman and her take of I don't
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: want to hear about it, don't I don't want to
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: hear about it, And that's just to me one of
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: the most noxious things about the mainstream media is they'd
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: rather ignore it.
• 48:05
  Speaker 5: Well, let's see the evidence, right, I mean, we've been
• 48:07
  Speaker 5: waiting for six years now, and the allegations have been
• 48:10
  Speaker 5: repeated over and over again and haven't gotten backed up
• 48:13
  Speaker 5: with a whole lot of credible information. And yes, as
• 48:16
  Speaker 5: I said, meddling is a curious term.
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: Not curious, but you.
• 48:19
  Speaker 5: Know, meddling has a broad can mean a lot of things.
• 48:22
  Speaker 5: It can mean that they posted TikTok videos saying.
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: They wanted Joe Biden to win, or that they.
• 48:26
  Speaker 5: Suppressed Donald Trump pro Donald Trump videos. And is that
• 48:30
  Speaker 5: election meddling? I suppose that you know that could be
• 48:33
  Speaker 5: included or does it really mean China and we're computer
• 48:37
  Speaker 5: hackers were going into election systems and changing the results.
• 48:41
  Speaker 5: I mean, obviously that's a very different level of election meddling.
• 48:46
  Speaker 5: So I'm anxious to hear what the president has to say.
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: Yes, sir, have you had any opportunity to maybe discuss
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: with anybody around the state of Georgia, because we are
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: very one of the things that we are. Yeah, we're
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: thinking that the people in Georgia are like police talking
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: about twenty twenty.
• 49:03
  Speaker 5: Well, right, and you know, we saw reports earlier this
• 49:07
  Speaker 5: week that the President might call into question the validity
• 49:11
  Speaker 5: of the elections of the two Georgia US senators, and
• 49:15
  Speaker 5: now we haven't really heard much of a follow up
• 49:16
  Speaker 5: to that. We'll see if there's going to be perhaps
• 49:19
  Speaker 5: some new information about that included tonight, but again, that's
• 49:23
  Speaker 5: just one of those things that's been floating out there,
• 49:25
  Speaker 5: and then we'll actually have to wait and see what
• 49:27
  Speaker 5: the President has to say.
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we've got the president and the governor Georgia kind
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: of on the same page for the first time in
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: a while, and you've got John ass Off. Certain polls
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: are showing him going to lose in the upcoming election. Right,
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: you'd hate to give them a lifeline when they're you know,
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: they're in the middle of of ending their own regime.
• 49:47
  Speaker 5: Well, I think that maybe you'll agree there has to
• 49:50
  Speaker 5: be a point of like show me the goods, like
• 49:52
  Speaker 5: or let's move on from the topic. I mean, Abby
• 49:55
  Speaker 5: on CNN whatever. But you know there is some point
• 49:58
  Speaker 5: of like you've been talking and talking and talking, but
• 50:01
  Speaker 5: I'm ready.
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: For some receipts. Yeah, tonight's the night put up her
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: shut up.
• 50:04
  Speaker 5: And well that's the better phrase.
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: Then put up, her shut up, and is there you
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: said other things? Do we know if he's going to
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: be talking about Iran tonight?
• 50:15
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we think that there'll be some talk of Iran
• 50:17
  Speaker 5: and hopefully some progress that's been made. You know, we
• 50:20
  Speaker 5: did see an American who had been being held in Iran.
• 50:23
  Speaker 5: She got released yesterday after suffering a heart attack while
• 50:26
  Speaker 5: in Iranian. Cassidy, and hopefully some talk about the economy
• 50:31
  Speaker 5: and some of the economic successes that are out there.
• 50:34
  Speaker 5: You know, Republicans on the Hill yesterday were asked about
• 50:36
  Speaker 5: what do you want the president to talk about? No
• 50:38
  Speaker 5: one said twenty twenty. They all want the president to
• 50:41
  Speaker 5: shift to the economy, address concerns of a lot of
• 50:44
  Speaker 5: American households, and say, look, we are making a lot
• 50:47
  Speaker 5: of progress in a lot of different areas. It's not perfect.
• 50:50
  Speaker 5: Things are certainly, though, on the right track, and the
• 50:52
  Speaker 5: president should reinforce that message rather than sort of have
• 50:56
  Speaker 5: people insisted that he didn't lose in twenty twenty, which
• 51:02
  Speaker 5: is also those weird confirmation hearings when they keep asking
• 51:05
  Speaker 5: who won the election, and boy, no nominee will i'd
• 51:08
  Speaker 5: ever say that Donald Trump lost And it's it's just
• 51:10
  Speaker 5: weird to watch them squirm like that.
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: Well, and it's a bizarre litmus test though for the
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: Democrats to try to put people through. So we're in
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: a we're in we're in Oddsville at this point. Is
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: this is crazy? Bill? Bill, thank you for giving us
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: a little preview of what to expect tonight. I'm sure
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: you'll be watching.
• 51:25
  Speaker 5: Absolutely hope we will talk about it tomorrow.
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: All right, Rory, thanks for checking in, and we'll have
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: more on that. All right, we'll talk to you tomorrow, hopefully.
• 51:32
  Speaker 2: In the meantime, What is going on with the Iranians? Boy,
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: they got pretty big and bold after they released the
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: young lady. Yes orll not the young lady, middle aged lady.
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: She's my age, I think. Right, we'll talk about what
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: they're saying.
• 51:47
  Speaker 4: This is this.
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: Has the President read this yet, because if he has,
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: I don't think that he's going to stop the bombing
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: anytime soon. We'll talk about that and more on South
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: Carolina's Morning News.
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: Your news, traffic, weather, and in for nation stations. This
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: is South Carolina's Morning News on one O three point
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: five FM, five sixty AM WVOC, and ninety four to
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: three wsc NOW.
• 52:12
  Speaker 4: Kelly Nash.
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: You know, I am a huge fan supporter of Donald Trump,
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: and every now and again he and I don't see
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: eye to eye. This is one of those instances when
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: he says, like I think we heard it at the
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: top of the hour again, the Iranians, they really want
• 52:29
  Speaker 2: to make a deal, really badly. Well, we'll have to
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: see if we're going to do that. Maybe we'll finish
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: him off, maybe we won't. This guy, I never heard of.
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: This guy, whoever he is. They's described in the Fox
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: News story this morning as a spokesperson for Iran's Katam
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: l Aniba Central headquarters worn Thursday morning. Well said, by
• 52:48
  Speaker 2: the way, thank you, Tehran will unleash widespread military attacks. Quote.
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: If the recent threats by the empty headed US president
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: to target the infant structure of the Islamic Republic of
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: Iran are carried out, then everything that is currently out
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: of Iran's restraint has so far remained intact, namely, all
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: the infrastructure throughout the region will be crushed under the
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: powerful blows of Iran's armed forces. He goes on to
• 53:18
  Speaker 2: say that Tyrann will under no circumstances allow for the
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: United States as a foreign and extra regional country to
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: have any say in the Strait of horrm Moones. This
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: is Iran's unbreakable red line, and if we are challenged,
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: we will not respond with an equal blow, but a
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: superior blow. He's telling you, Trump, They're telling you we
• 53:44
  Speaker 2: don't want to negotiate, we don't want peace. Come and
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: kill us. They're begging you to come and kill them.
• 53:52
  Speaker 3: All and any thoughts of a deal or are all
• 53:54
  Speaker 3: but out the window at this point. I'm not sure
• 53:56
  Speaker 3: who in Washington does think right now deal is not
• 54:00
  Speaker 3: only imminent, but even possible. And now we're seeing reports
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: that Iran is telling the Houthies their allies, Okay, let's
• 54:09
  Speaker 3: start attacking in other places around the Gulf, and if
• 54:12
  Speaker 3: we get hit, meaning Iran, if our put power structure
• 54:16
  Speaker 3: gets hit the way Trump is threatening, we're empowering you,
• 54:20
  Speaker 3: We're emboldening you to start attacking. And the Hoothies have
• 54:23
  Speaker 3: already done that. They broke what a four year truce
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: with Saudi Arabia yesterday they started firing missiles there and
• 54:29
  Speaker 3: sending drones there. I mean, this is this is all
• 54:32
  Speaker 3: but chaos at this point.
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: It is chaos. And the Middle East has always been
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: a hotbed, but it's always been kind of powered by
• 54:41
  Speaker 2: this Iranian revolution that happened forty seven years ago or
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: whatever it is now, and it's the IRGC, and I
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: don't know it is. It's an easy puzzle to follow,
• 54:53
  Speaker 2: not necessarily an easy puzzle to solve, but it the
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: only way to solve it is to kill the ir Again,
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: that's one hundred and eighty thousand troops or so that
• 55:04
  Speaker 2: control ninety million people. I don't want the innocent people
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: in that country to die. However, you have allowed this
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: terror regime to overthrow your government. And I mean obviously
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: there were some of you involved with that back in
• 55:21
  Speaker 2: the late seventies and probably even wanted this. Maybe some
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: of you regret it now, whatever the case may be.
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: But until those people go, that's why you keep getting
• 55:30
  Speaker 2: these mixed messages. Well, we're negotiating with them. You're not
• 55:33
  Speaker 2: negotiating with the IRGC. You're negotiating with somebody who probably
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: does want peace. The IRGC does not want peace. They
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: want to just dominate the entire world. And they look
• 55:44
  Speaker 2: at you and Israel as the big Satan and the
• 55:46
  Speaker 2: little Satan. They've been telling us that for forty seven years.
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: They're not lying. They're not lying. They do they want
• 55:53
  Speaker 2: your death, and now they're calling you empty headed. Maybe
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: that's the maybe that will be the thing that pushes
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: Trump far enough to this job. They're calling me empty headed.
• 56:03
  Speaker 3: I don't see how he can't not address that tonight too.
• 56:06
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's I know Americans are well, he's focused
• 56:11
  Speaker 3: on the election and election scandals of the past, and
• 56:16
  Speaker 3: I know he wants Americans focused on future election integrity
• 56:20
  Speaker 3: with tonight's speech, But I don't see how you cannot
• 56:23
  Speaker 3: address what's going on in Iran tonight before you close
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: that speech out.
• 56:27
  Speaker 2: And what would you like, you the listener, would you
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: like to see the United States military come down, like
• 56:33
  Speaker 2: just unleash hell on these people? Or do you like
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: these measured responses trying to force them to the negotiation table.
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe you see a piece a path
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: to peace that will just kind of calm the tensions
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: in the Middle East. If you do, I'd love to
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: hear about it. Or if you'd like to see us
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: rain hell, or maybe my original plan is still in play.
• 56:54
  Speaker 2: I still say arm find the civilians that want to
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: rise up, and give them military weapons and let them
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: go to battle. But either way you can use the
• 57:02
  Speaker 2: talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app. Thanks for starting your
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: day with South Carolina's Morning news.
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: This is South Carolina's Morning News on one O three
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: point five FM and five sixty AM WVOC, Columbia and
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: ninety four to three WSC Charleston.
• 57:19
  Speaker 4: Now, Kelly Nash.
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: I used to have as a regular guest. We got
• 57:24
  Speaker 2: to get him back on. Doctor joe We call him
• 57:26
  Speaker 2: doctor Joey's real name is Joseph. Got to give him
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: a little more respect. Doctor Joseph von Nessen from the
• 57:32
  Speaker 2: University of South Carolina. He's a research economist, and he
• 57:36
  Speaker 2: says about one and a half percent of our agriculture
• 57:41
  Speaker 2: land in South Carolina is being used by solar farms.
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: People want to grow the solar farms. Other people don't
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: want to grow the solar farms. They say here in
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: South Carolina it's ugly. I would point to the fact that, yes,
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: they're ugly, but I'll also add not very a five.
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: If you look at the power produced nationally sol all
• 58:06
  Speaker 2: the solar panels in all of America produce about eight
• 58:10
  Speaker 2: percent of our energy. It's even less in South Carolina.
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: Right now it's between three point nine two percent and
• 58:16
  Speaker 2: five point one five percent, So we'll say four percent
• 58:19
  Speaker 2: of the energy in South Carolina is produced by all
• 58:22
  Speaker 2: these solar panels you see on people's roofs. On the
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: solar panel, you've got those solar farms that are going
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: throughout the state. I would much rather us invest more
• 58:35
  Speaker 2: like what Elon Musk is doing. He's saying, we are
• 58:38
  Speaker 2: on the brink of kind of figuring out the problem
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: that is transforming solar energy into real power. He points
• 58:46
  Speaker 2: out that he thinks you could take one hundred miles
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: by one hundred miles somewhere that nobody lives, some desert
• 58:55
  Speaker 2: somewhere and literally power the entire country. It'll be far
• 58:59
  Speaker 2: more effective than nuclear energy within the next ten years.
• 59:03
  Speaker 3: He says, makes sense. And much like the argument about
• 59:06
  Speaker 3: data centers, I think there's a place for these things
• 59:09
  Speaker 3: you just mentioned a desert for example. I mean, you
• 59:11
  Speaker 3: don't put it on on farmable land. You put these
• 59:15
  Speaker 3: solar farms someplace where you're not going to use that
• 59:18
  Speaker 3: land for anything else.
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: And those data centers, we keep hearing about the noises
• 59:23
  Speaker 2: and all that sort of stuff. Put them out in
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: the middle of nowhere. Yes, it's more expensive for the
• 59:27
  Speaker 2: people to that are behind those data centers, but so
• 59:31
  Speaker 2: what what do I care. Don't put it in your
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: population centers. And I do love the fact that Elon
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: keeps talking about the idea of he's planning on putting
• 59:40
  Speaker 2: those data centers in outer space. Yeah.
• 59:42
  Speaker 3: I think he mentioned the ocean at one point, and
• 59:43
  Speaker 3: then he said, yeah, let's let's boost them up into
• 59:46
  Speaker 3: outer space where they're not going to bother anyone.
• 59:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you've got the like he said, well,
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: then have access to the sun twenty four hours. Always,
• 59:52
  Speaker 2: it's always going to be able to have the Sun
• 59:54
  Speaker 2: to power it and then just beam it back to Earth.
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: So we are on the cusp of major breakthroughs in
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 2: the state of South Carolina. In my humble opinion, well
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 2: maybe not so humble, Maybe my bold opinion is I
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 2: don't like these solar things.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 3: I think they look ugly when I'm driving down the road.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 3: They do well, obviously somebody finds them profitable. Well, if
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 3: they're profitable enough for you to find them, you know,
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 3: what's the difference in putting them next to the highway
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 3: or next to a road, a scenic road versus putting
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 3: them out in the middle of nowhere. It's not going
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 3: to cost you any more money to put them out there.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: Yes, So South Carolina has got some decisions to make
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 2: when it comes to these solar farms.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 3: And well, think about how big tourism is to our state,
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 3: and do we want people seeing that as they drive
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 3: past solar farms or do we want them seeing, you know,
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 3: scenic pastures for example.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 2: I remember going to Palm Springs to your point, I
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 2: went out to Palm Springs once and this is probably
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 2: about six seven years ago, and I drove out of
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: Palm Springs and they have those windmills. Gosh, those were ugly.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: And I mean it went for like twenty miles just windmill,
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: I mean like one right after the other. To Trump's point, ah,
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 2: the birds, they don't stand a chance anyway. So yeah,
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 2: what do you think about these solar farms that are
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 2: starting to fill up in South Carolina? Let us know.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 2: I'm the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app on South
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 2: Carolina's morning news.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 4: From the Midlands to the low Country.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: This is South Carolina's morning news on one O three
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 1: point five FM and five sixty AM WVOC and ninety
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: four to three WSC.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 4: Now here's Kelly Nash.
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: I'm reading a story in the morning edition of the
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 2: Posting Career. Do they have afternoon editions? I don't think
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 2: they do that anymore, But anyway, they posted this about
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 2: two hours ago, and I love the spirit. I really
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 2: want to be a fan of what they're talking about here.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 2: But a couple of things popped up. First. I hate
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 2: the phrase the unhoused. The word unhoused, ay, it's a misnome.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: It implies that everybody deserves a home, that everybody is just,
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 2: and that somehow society has allowed these people to become unhoused. No,
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 2: that is not the way life works. People are homeless
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: because they've made some choices and or some circumstances have
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 2: arisen that have allowed them to become homeless. Now in
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 2: North Charleston, what they're specifically doing, which I'm a fan of,
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 2: is they have community leaders working with a couple of
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 2: representatives of the homeless, and they're putting together a like
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 2: a committee, a task force. How can we get these
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 2: people who are currently living in the woods, currently living
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 2: in their cars, CouchSurfing, whatever, to figure out how they
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 2: can become housed, So to speak Okay, the thing that
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 2: makes me a little bit nervous. Apparently this has already
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 2: been done in Greenville, and so this is kind of
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 2: what they're modeling it after. It is something called Greenville Together,
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 2: made up of local leaders, nonprofits, landlords, et cetera. Is
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 2: that like for this one in Greenville, they get five
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars a year from the city and then
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 2: the city and once it's given into them, then they
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: figure out how to disperse this money, which you know,
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 2: we had a caller earlier on the talkback feature talking
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 2: about how this you know, all of a sudden, you
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 2: start with one thing and it leads into another. I
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 2: hate to be the guy who points out slippery slopes,
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 2: but this is how things. You know. It goes from
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 2: five hundred grand a year if we're not careful, if
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 2: you don't keep your eye on it, it goes to
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 2: fifty million in three or four years.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 3: I think Columbia currently spends between four and five million
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 3: on the homeless situation, and you know, distributing money to
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 3: homeless services, et cetera.
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 2: Yes, So in what they're doing in Greenville is they
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 2: spend that money as well, then they spend another half
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 2: million to give it to the local church leaders and
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: those people who are working with the homeless. I don't
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: know how you get to be the leader of a
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 2: homeless group, but there's like they're interviewing a lady here
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 2: in the story this morning. Alison Scott, member of the council,
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 2: who currently lives in a tent in the woods trying
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: to find permanent housing, says that getting a job is
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: difficult because of her past criminal record. So yeah, look again,
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: life choices make life harder if you make the wrong ones.
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: So if you've got a criminal record, life gets harder,
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 2: not over, not insurmountable, just harder. She says she struggles
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 2: to meet basic needs, relies on inconsistent food and water
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: donations from nonprofits, So I'm not really sure what she's
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 2: contributing other than my life sucks right now. But does
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: she have some insights as to how to make her
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 2: life not suck? If she does, that would be interesting.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 2: They should have put it in the story. But I
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 2: want to be a fan of this. I like the
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: idea of getting because I've often felt that the government
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 2: is trying to surplant the role of charities, and I like,
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 2: you would never have charity get defrauded to the tunes
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 2: of millions and millions of dollars like you see in
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: Minnesota and other places, because it's a local thing, and
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: you know, if somebody's ripping.
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 3: You off, and those people are usually arrested pretty quickly.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: Yes, because the money's that tended to do good, not
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 2: make some idiot from Somalia rich. But that's so I'm
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 2: trying to cheer this on. So I'm at a B
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 2: level right now. For the North Charleston Homeless Commission, I'm
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: at a B level. I'm trying to get to an a.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 3: It's a problem in every major city, and you know
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 3: South Carolina is no different. It's just trying to figure
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 3: out what you're going to you can only throw. It's
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 3: almost like education. We had the argument about education for years.
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 3: We can only throw so much money at it. It's
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 3: got to be more than just money. There have got
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 3: to be solutions other than just yeah, let's spend more
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 3: money on our homeless problem. That doesn't erase the problem.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 2: That's right. You're absolutely right, Christopher, And we have too
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 2: many people who think that that is the problem. So
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 2: we'll we'll continue to hash that out. If you've got
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 2: thoughts on it. Use the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 2: app a. South Carolina's Morning.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 4: News live from the state Capitol.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: This is South Carolina's Morning News with Kelly Nash the.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: South Carolina Department of Natural Resources with a warning that
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 2: I had not expected. Do not kidnap the deer. Apparently
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 2: this is the busiest month. July is the number one
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: month for the birth of little baby deer. And they
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 2: are adorable. My gosh, these things are adorable. And they
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: come out they weigh four to eight pounds when they're
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 2: born about twelve inches long. After a couple of weeks,
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 2: they've doubled in weight, so they're anywhere between eight and
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 2: sixteen pounds. But even then there's still just like you
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 2: could bring them home and love on them. And apparently
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: what happens throughout South Carolina, according to Lee Keinemar, is
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: that these the moms of these little babies, they hide
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: the babies in people's backyards. They seek out human beings
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 2: backyards because they feel like that's the safest place for them.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 2: It keeps them away from coyotes and cars and everything,
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 2: and they'll hide them in the shrubbery and then later
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: on in the day somebody comes out and goes, oh
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 2: my gosh, look at this adorable little deer.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 3: We've got a new pet.
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 2: Mom must have abandoned it, and they pick it up
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: and they bring it in the house, and weeks later
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: you've got a disaster on your hands because it's a
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 2: wild animal. And sometimes these poor animals end up injuring themselves.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: As they explained, they will continue to try to run
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 2: through the wall, expecting it to give way like they
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 2: would expect branches to give way, until they kill themselves,
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 2: break their bones, whatever. And as a little side note,
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 2: they also fill the home with urine. Oh so they're
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 2: not going to be house trained either. So they're saying,
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 2: do not kidnap them. The mom will come back and
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 2: if she doesn't find the deer now, she's gonna be irate.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 2: So you could have two big problems on your hands.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 2: So for South Carolina homeowners, if you happen to find
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 2: one of these little baby deer in your backyard, understand
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 2: that mom's coming back tonight. She's just out trying to
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 2: get some food for the deer right now. So that
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 2: is an I had not expected that warning. Do not
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 2: kidnap the deer. In South Carolina.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 3: Well, no, that was a thing.
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know what, I might go look at
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 2: my backyard today, so if I could just see one
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 2: take a picture with it or something. Anyway, this is
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 2: South Carolina's Morning News.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: This is South Carolina's Morning News with Kelly Nash.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 2: Interesting dilemma today. I uh, as we get ready for
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 2: Trump's speech tonight, I'm looking at the Daily Beast. They've
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 2: got a headline TV networks humiliate Trump over his address
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 2: to the nation, and I apparently I'm assuming Fox and
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 2: newsmacs are going to carry it, but they're saying as
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 2: of this moment, nobody has responded to them. ABC, CBS
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 2: and MSNB or MS now CNN have not responded as
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 2: to whether or not they're going to carry it. I
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: know AOC has said, you can't carry it because it'll
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 2: be filled with lies. You must deplatform him. I'm looking
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 2: at USA today and they're saying the only place to
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 2: be sure to see it would be the White House
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: YouTube page and white House dot gov. So if you
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 2: want to watch the president tonight, you're you're guaranteed to
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 2: see it at white House dot gov white House YouTube
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 2: page as well. I would assume Fox News and Newsmax.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 2: I have not checked any further than that. Have you
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 2: heard anything on this, Christopher?
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 3: I have not. Good news is that I know in
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 3: Colombia it'll be carried right here on our station, and
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 3: I think Charleston will be doing that as well. So
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 3: even if you can't see it, you can listen to
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 3: it absolutely.
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 2: And of course you know tomorrow we will have all
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 2: the reactions. I wonder if I wonder if Chuck Schumer
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 2: is going to have a reaction. You know, yesterday he
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 2: was was it yesterday, was giving his big speech on
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 2: the floor and he was trying to talk about the
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 2: Save America Act or whatever, and then he moved on
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 2: to Iran and had this to.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 5: Say, now on Iran and the NDAA when all the
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 5: Trump administration.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 2: He actually giggled at himself passing away. I mean, that
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 2: was so long. Can somebody get the senator some bino.
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 2: Can somebody help Chuck Schumer? No more speeches after lunch
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 2: for Chuck. He's cut off for a while. Anyway, Hope
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 2: you're having a great morning. We'll be back tomorrow too.
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 2: Like we said, recap the President's speech and all the
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 2: breaking news that happens on the overnight. This is South
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 2: Carolina's morning news. We'll join you tomorrow
