Quin Hillyer - Regan Movie and Presidential Debate - Mobile Mornings - Tuesday 1-30-24
[MUSIC PLAYING] News. Sports. Weather from Dr. Bill Williams. Traffic in Wilfram, Kane. And one of the Gulf Coast's most familiar voices. It's Mobile Mornings with Dan Brennan and Dalton R. Wig. Good morning. It is. Mobile Mornings. Good to have you along. Nearly seven minutes after eight o'clock, when I've been talking one over six, five. Yeah, some pretty funny stuff on the text line-- 2, 5, 1, 3, 4, 3, 0, 1, 0, 6, regarding that last story. Gluteal amnesia, better known as dead butt syndrome. Now you have folks on the text line calling you dead butt, Dan. Dead butt, Dan. It's me. That's great. And I replied to him, and said, it sounds like the nickname, one of those bad guys in the old West. Like there'd be a bounty out on dead butt, Dan. They're on the lookout for dead butt, Dan. Not a good guy. Dead butt, don't be a bad guy. And Mr. Plott said, what about gluteal blindness? And you just can't see your butt doing anything. So keep the text coming, 2, 5, 1, 3, 4, 3, 0, 1, 0, 6. It is a Tuesday. That means it's time to talk with our Tuesday guests. That would be Quinn Hillier. You can find his work at the Washington Examiner, also Quinn Hillier.com. And good morning, Quinn. Good morning, guys. First things first, I know you're excited about the Saints. Oh, man. Trying to keep my excitement leveled down because we played a bad team. It was only the first week. But boy, was that fun to watch? It's like a bunch of people. A bunch of people snuck into their uniforms and masqueraded as the Saints. They ran the ball. It was fun. It was fun to watch them. The first nine times they had the ball, they scored. Amazing. Think about that. I mean, the only time that they punted was when they were just trying to run out the clock. I mean, it was amazing. Must be nice. Must be nice, Quinn. And also, I know you have a lot of friends. Family over in the New Orleans area. Not that it's anything new to them, but preparing for a storm that's headed their way. We wish everyone there our best. Well, thank you. Appreciate it. So from asking Gorbachev to tear down this wall, to now breaking the fourth wall, Reagan is a movie now. And it's Dennis Quaid playing Reagan. Were you able to check this movie out, Quinn? I was. And look, it's not a great, super entertaining movie. And for people over 45, it will all be familiar. But my message is, if you have any relatives under 45, or if you are under 45, but buy hook or buy a crook, go there and take your relative, your friend, whatever. Because people under 45 really, a lot of times, don't get it about what Reagan was, and what he accomplished, the astonishing achievements that he made and the character that he showed. This movie, for the most part, captures it. And so much of today's education will teach that Reagan was a trigger-happy cowboy. And he just got lucky with the Soviet Union, or he was an amiable dance. But the Soviet Union was going to collapse under its own weight anyway, or something like that. That's all BS. And the movie shows that it's BS. Without Reagan, the Soviet Union doesn't collapse. And people don't understand now, younger people just how bad the Soviet Union was. This movie captures a lot of that, and in a pretty entertaining fashion. Any president, because it's going to be lampooned, you're going to be on Saturday Night Live. You're going to turn you into caricature. And Reagan had his detractors in his day. And he was president for eight years. You're not going to have everybody united, loving everything you do. He was covered in a number of different ways. But in the end, I think that Reagan acquitted himself. And when you look like he saved, a lot of his accomplishments aren't readily understood, or even historically, given the credit, probably he is due. No, definitely not given the credit. He is due certainly by the establishment media even now. Though after the Soviet Union fell for about a year or two, even some of the liberal media started giving him credit. And then, of course, amnesia started coming in, and they changed the story to, well, it was going to collapse after its own weight anyway. That's total BS. And this movie shows that this one man got it in his head when the conventional wisdom was entirely the opposite. The conventional wisdom was the best you can do is learn to live with the Soviets. He said, no, they are a fundamentally flawed system, but they need to be pushed. And we're going to push them. We're going to push them in the right way. We're always going to do it in a way that tries to maintain the peace. But we are going to topple them. We are going to win this Cold War. And he had the vision. A lot of people said no way. And he stuck to his guns. And what the movie shows-- and again, Dennis Quaid does an admirable job as Reagan. He can't capture Reagan's voice, the sound of the voice to Timbrough of his voice. He sounds a little tinny. But he makes an admirable effort to do Reagan's mannerisms and stuff like that. And you cannot watch this movie and not like the man, which is what everybody that I've talked to in real life said to people that knew him. And I know a lot of people that knew him said he was just innately likable and absolutely sincere. And that shows in this movie average. Everybody, it's at about three different theaters maybe four right now in the area. Go see Reagan in the movie. You know, it'd be interesting a little exercise to think of how Reagan, if he were debating tonight, would approach debating either candidate, Kamala Harris or Donald Trump, maybe get into tonight's debate here in just a little bit. But I want to talk some about a state issue that we've been focused on here over the last week or so, just almost a week when. And that is Governor Ivey asking for the resignation of the commissioner of the state's Department of Veteran Affairs, Kent Davis, Admiral Davis. He officially yesterday said that he will resign at the end of the year. We've talked with a lot of veterans, especially from our area, who really like Davis as the Veterans Affairs Commissioner. Some of them have said that the state's VA really wasn't getting the job done until he came into that role back in 2019. But all of this surrounding ARPA funding, which the state is still trying to figure out how to spend by some deadlines, about $7 million at the VA felt they had a deal made with the finance department and mental health department. Everything went awry after an ethics complaint was lobbed by Davis. And that ethics commission threw it out. And Ivey asked for his resignation and knocked Kilpatrick off the veterans board. What are your thoughts on this? Pretty dramatic week as far as state politics go. OK, my thoughts on this about Governor Ivey are unrepeatable on the radio. The amount of invective that should be hurled at that lady right now, this is one of the biggest state government scandals in two decades. And the scandal is not anything that Admiral Davis did. The scandal is with the state mental health department. The scandal is with the ethics commission, the non-ethics commission, as Rob Holbert does a good job of showing-- had done a great job of showing for the last two years at Laniep. And the scandal is with Governor Ivey covering up the scandal inciting with the bad guys. Let me explain this. Please. There was a grant that was there for the taking. Money coming into the state, $7 million, coming into the state to help veterans, to help specifically with mental health for veterans. And the head of the mental health department wouldn't sign off on the local recipient that's going to recover, getting the grant, which makes no sense. How can you say, no, our own nationally recognized facility down there should not get the grant? It's not like anybody else was going to get the grant, but she wouldn't sign off on it. And Admiral Davis at the Veterans Affairs Department said that, well, something smells here. And he outlined, and unfortunately, I haven't been able to get my hands on the full ethics complaint, but he outlined a lot of what sure looked like insider dealing and said, this smells too high heaven. You're turning away $7 million for the state, and there's all this conflict of interest. So rather than say, OK, something's wrong here, whatever is right and whoever is wrong, Governor Ivey should have said, we just cost our state $7 million. And rather than saying, OK, what is the disagreement between the veterans in the mental health department? She goes, and she says that the man that complained about it should be fired. The man that complained about bad ethics is the one to take the fall, not the people that actually blocked the money, and not the ethics commission, which never actually stands up for ethics, as Rob Holberg keeps showing, it certainly looks like a crooked ethics commission. Disgrace. No. She comes down against the guy standing up for our veterans. That lady is despicable. I've been very unhappy with her for years on a number of things, because she doesn't do anything. I don't know why she was re-elected twice. But this thing, this is a scandal of epic proportions, and she needs to answer, and the legislature needs to open an inquiry, call themselves in the special session, if that's allowable, and open an inquiry right now into her conduct, into the conduct of the mental health department, and into the conduct of the ethics commission. If anybody is listening out there, contact your legislature, legislate your, and say, this is unacceptable. Early returns are everybody's just falling in line behind Ivy. It's just the strangest thing. I don't claim to understand it. I'm be happy to say it right here. I'm not getting this at all. When she first made her statement late last week, Elton, was it Wednesday or Thursday? She called it a frivolous complaint. She gave us sense of the ethics commission. She, and so Delton and I were talking about it. It's like, this is unusual for her to be this public about anything, so this must have really wrinkled her. And she, but she also came down, she was mad about it, but she was only mad about one side of it all. She was, why isn't she angry that we lost the $7 million that was there for the taking? That is what should make this pathetic excuse for a leader angry, and if you think I'm, I sound angry, I am furious. I care about our veterans. I was my first job out of college. I was a Ronald Reagan administration appointee to the veterans administration in Washington. This is important, and we have a great organization down here that's recover. And they're the ones getting, I'll say mistreated. And I could go into, and once I do a little more research, I am going to unload on the local mental health providers because there is a rat there that's a, that's the biggest smelliest rat you've ever seen. - And you know, the reason that rat smells so badly, if Ivy, and you know, we've been talking a lot about dead butt syndrome, she's had gluteal amnesia the last few years. She doesn't do press conferences. She doesn't really stand up for much, but if she'd been getting off the sidelines more often during appearances of malfeasance in the state government or other scandals that we've seen time and time again, whether it's Al Dott, director John Cooper, or name the person here, this wouldn't be so odd, right? But the fact that she comes from the sidelines and settles in at nose tackle, you know, and she decides she's going to run over the VA, it's just really weird. - And again, look, maybe not every element of the ethics complaint was valid, I don't know. But what we do know is there were $7 million there for the taking, the feds had already basically said our local group qualified for it, and the middle health department blocked the veterans group from getting the money. $7 million is not in the state of Louisiana helping, I mean Alabama helping our veterans that should be there right now, and Kay Ivy is not worried about the $7 million. She's worried about protecting the satrapi, protecting whatever insider deals are going on up there. - Yeah, and it seemed to be a personal grudge too that prevented that money from-- - Absolutely. - You know, that's kind of despicable. All right, so I don't wanna speak too strongly about it 'cause I have more questions than answers. A few more for you after we get back. Sound good, Quinn? - All right, Quinn Hillier, Washington, examiner, Quinn Hillier dot com. Coming back, more mobile mornings on the way. (upbeat music) Thanks K and 825 FM Talk 106.5 in mobile mornings, continuing our conversation with Quinn Hillier here in just a moment. This segment brought to you by Tobias and Comer Law, the local personal injury law firm. It's helped get fair compensation for a ton of people in our area. They've been working from that same office down on Dolphin Street for decades. Reminder, next week, Child Passenger Safety Week. Car crashes are the leading cause of death for children under the age of 14. It's something that, well, it's not always preventable and it is always tragic. There are ways that you can try to make your family or friends as safe as possible. And a major way to do that is to make sure you have the right car seat in your car and that it's installed properly. Make sure you find one that's based on your child's age and size. You also wanna, you don't want to use a pre-owned car seat most often, you don't know what kind of accidents may have been in previously, kind of like football helmets you're seeing, once they're used once, they're damaged. - Get 'em put 'em to the side. - You also wanna make sure you install your car seat correctly and you get ahead of any new news, register that car seat and sign up for recalls and they'll let you know if there's any issues with it. Child Passenger Safety Week, next week, and you can always call Tobias and Comer Law, pre-consultation anytime of the day, two, five, one, four, three, two, five, zero, zero, one. You can check out a bunch of great information on their website, TobiasComerLaw.com. Comer has been practicing for the debate for about a week now, Quinn, while Trump works on his short game, but we're gonna just go, of course. So, what do you anticipate tonight? - Lord knows, when you've got two people that are so unpredictable and frankly so bad at this, Lord knows. I mean, look, you got Trump yesterday, I think it was, going on and on again, listing people who he's gonna sick his debt justice department on and arrest them just because they're his enemies. I mean, that's outrageous. You have Kamala Harris, whose campaign is so afraid of her talking that they treat her as if she's Joe Biden and she's see now and they won't let her or Tim Walsh, for that matter, answer any questions because when she does, she starts repeating herself in these inane things about time being important because timeliness is important because of time. I mean, it's just, it's pathetic. She just finds these platitudes and repeats them over and over and over again. And then, of course, she also is gonna have trouble defending all of her flip flops because she had so many radical positions that she's now, her campaign is claiming that she changed but she's never actually explained it. So anyway, to answer your question, Lord knows. I think they're both at serious risk of stepping in it. - Yeah, well, I could see that, but we've seen Trump absolutely dominate debates in the past. I don't know if we've seen Kamala Harris dominate any debate except I've seen some journalists, they go back to like when she was running for California, as an attorney general, they said, oh, she dominated in a debate that wasn't even, I think, televised. But, I mean, Trump has the experience when it comes to the debate stage, but Kamala might have the ABC anchors giving her a little boost, too. - Well, she almost certainly will have the ABC anchors giving her a boost, but yeah, I mean, she really is bad at this. Remember, in the Democratic debates in, well, when even 2020 was 2019 and she started at the top of the polls and then Tulsi Gabbard, who was in also Rand, completely destroyed Kamala Harris in one debate, just absolutely took her down, cut her off at the knees, then cut her off at the hips, and then stuck a shiv right through her body. I mean, it was so bad and Kamala Harris was pitiful. So, if I'm the Democrats, I'm really, really worried about tonight, except for knowing that the ABC folks might be on her side. - I loved that description there of what Tulsi did to Kamala. That was fantastic. And for folks who want to read more writing, it is just as witty as that. Where can folks get your works? - Well, you can Google me at Quinco, you're in Washington Examiner, or you can go about every week. I update Quinco, your dot com. - Thank you, Quin. We'll talk to you again in a week, okay? - Thanks a lot, appreciate it. - All right, coming back, more mobile mornings, we'll turn up your voice 2513430106. CNN, the knives seem to be out for Kamala. I'll play some audio for you on the way. (upbeat music) - Good morning from Dan and Dalton. FM talk 106.5, we'll get around to the text line here in a bit. See what you got on your mind. 2513430106, that's also the number if you want to call the show and be part of the show. That's fine too. 835 now on mobile mornings. - And we'll get into CNN going after Kamala and tonight's debate, but just personally. - Yeah, I'm becoming so infatuated with everything that SpaceX is doing, including saving the day for those Boeing astronauts who were up there on the International Space Station. - Oh, yeah. - But today, this-- - Well, they haven't done it yet. - Well, they're going to save them in February. That's the plan, right? - Think about saving somebody in space, in outer space, until you've done it, you can't-- - You can't claim it. - Can't write the check. - No. - Yeah, you've got to read it. - They're in outer space. - That's a good point. - You know, they're not on the eighth floor of the Ramada. We've got to go get them and there might be something to that. - Well, another fascinating SpaceX mission. I think it's called Polaris Dawn. Remember they were trying to launch this last week and maybe one time prior than that, but weather conditions and other reasons they weren't able to do it? - They're going to do the spacewalk? - That's right, yeah. And this morning, the daredevil billionaire and friends, they went into orbit and this was this Jared Isaacman. He went previously on a SpaceX flight, I think just into space and back. But now he and his crew of quote unquote, private citizens, you know, they're not NASA astronauts. They're going to try to perform the first private spacewalk and they'll also be going further into the atmosphere than anyone since NASA's Apollo astronauts. - So they're going to go further than any private citizen has ever gone easily, right? - Without a doubt, yeah. They, right here, unlike his previous chartered flight, tech entrepreneur, Jared Isaacman, shared the cost with SpaceX this time, first time he paid for it out of his own pocket, I guess, going into space, including developing and testing brand new spacesuits to see how they'll hold up in this harsh vacuum of space. If all goes as planned, it'll be the first time private citizens have conducted a spacewalk. They said, "I won't venture away from the capsule though." Considered one of the riskiest parts of space flight, spacewalks have been the sole realm of professional astronauts since the former Soviet Union popped open the hatch in 1965, followed closely by the US. Today, of course, they're routinely done at the International Space Station. Now, they said Isaacman, along with a pair of SpaceX engineers and a former Air Force Thunderbirds pilot launched before dawn this morning on a SpaceX Falcon 9 from Florida. The spacewalk is scheduled for Thursday midway through the five-day flight. First, the passengers are shooting for way beyond the International Space Station, an altitude of 870 miles, which would surpass the Earth-lapping record set during NASA's Project Gemini back in 1966. Only the 24 Apollo astronauts who have flown to the moon have ventured farther. They said the plan is to spend 10 hours at that height of 870 miles, which is filled with extreme radiation and riddled with debris. And then after that 10 hours, they will reduce their orbit by half. Again, private citizens. And you know, Elon's main goal here is to create a working civilization on Mars. So this is just that next step in sending private astronauts out for a spacewalk. Pretty crazy. I'd like to know a little bit more about-- anybody can text, no matter what, but our daily textures, listeners, Sheila, Ed, Mr. Plot, damn Yankee, right? Yes or no, would you do this? If you were given the opportunity, money was not an option, you could do it for free. Would you take the opportunity to go into space? And I was having a similar conversation with a friend on Messenger last night, a listener to the show. We were talking about the hurricane hunters and the plane they take into the hurricane to see what all is going on. For that, I said, it sounds like a nightmare, but you only live once. I think it's something you have to do if you're given the opportunity. I'd say probably the same thing for this. If you're given the-- I guess you should probably think about your family and friends, though, so there's that. But I mean, not everyone gets to go to space. That's pretty wild. Yeah, I don't know that-- I don't know exactly what I would do. I'm not sure that I would do it. I'm not sure that I wouldn't do it. I would probably research it a little bit. That would be a good idea. Good idea, right? So what are we doing today? Yeah, exactly. My research this time of year basically has got to do with St. Paul's defense, stuff like that. Or the SEC when the adult and I do our podcast and trying to get those bets down correctly or picks right. So I would have to do some research about things I don't generally research. Of course, I've been stretched to my limits with this job anyway from where I was. This might be a break. Exactly, exactly. But anyway, would you go? Yes or no on the text line 2513430106. Yeah, and I like this new era of space exploration. I am jealous of everyone who got to witness the space race. I know it was a very dramatic time as well with everything going on between Soviet, Russia, and us. But just that lust for adventure. And everybody I imagine, every little kid wanted to be an astronaut back then. You don't really hear kids saying that anymore. And we just kind of, I don't know if it was the bureaucracy or how everything kind of played into it. But we're more worried about bringing immigrants into America than we are shooting people off into space anymore. I love the adventure, kind of the frontier exploration of space. I'm glad we're headed back towards that really kind of heralded along by Elon Musk and folks like him. They had private, the private. And so at that time, if I remember correctly, I don't remember from the time because I was small, you know, a child, but it was our response to Russia. Russia was getting it done in space. And then it was like, OK, first one to the moon, go. And Russia looked like they had the advantage. They were way ahead of us with Spudnik and things like that back in the '50s. And John F. Kennedy was the president who made it a challenge of this is what we're going to do. And this is how we're going to do it. And this is how quickly we're going to do it. That's why it was so cool, because it was a challenge. And it was a competition. And the idea, I think, was that we've got to need space to hold on to the earth. We don't want Russia to get it. We don't want them to get there before we do, because they, of course, are enemy. Yeah, because it was kind of a marketing war as well for the two countries, right? And there's actually really good, I say really good. I'm only a few episodes in. But there's a series on Apple TV where they reimagine if Russia had actually beaten the US to the moon. OK. And if the space race never ended, if things just kept escalating and escalating and escalating, it's a pretty cool little-- what could have been if we had continued this exploration. But picking it up now, and it's actually been one of the planks of Trump's kind of-- one of the many planks of his policy is trying to get back on that track. So I don't know. Every little story about SpaceX that comes out, I'm becoming more and more infatuated with that. I'm also interested in this. Well, Keith Harvey says, no, because he hadn't seen enough stuff on Earth yet. There's so many things on Earth he'd wanted to see before he went into space. That's a good point. There's a lot to check out here. What about the depths of the ocean? There's some crazy things way on down there. We have no clue about it. This texture said, I would go just for the shared adventure. It's a Shane there. Mr. Plott says, SpaceX? Hell yeah. I'll take that as a yes. There you go. Ed says, Dan Hellno, but I'd send my ex-wife in my place. That sounds like you're-- but I mean, she might come out winning on that. If she has a great time in space, then it could have been you. Then again, and then you lose again because she goes up there. She becomes a national hero. She's all backfires. I'd be careful. I could see that backfiring. Let's see, the texture about common. We'll get to that here in a minute. Jason says, have you ever seen the movie "Fly Me to the Moon?" I think that is much closer to the truth. I have not. I did enjoy "First Man" with Ryan Gosling. Is "Fly Me to the Moon" about-- is that like faking the moon landing? I think that might be with that movie. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think you're right. So I don't know. Keep the text coming in, 2513430106. Would you fly into space on a SpaceX rocket and do a spacewalk if you didn't have to pay for it? Now, paying for it would be-- I'd have to finance that trip for sure. No doubt about that. That'd be out of the question. Now, if I was gifted the opportunity, it would be something that I would consider it. But I'm not sure that I would do it. But I would sure consider it. And once those-- it's like once the Earth looks like the size of a dime, it's like you're too late now. So I'd want to be really sure that I was sure. Yeah, no doubt. Another thing that is-- I don't know if it's perplexing or what, but it seems to me that CNN kind of going after Kamala Harris a little bit here over the last-- well, you've kind of seen it growing. And then they got that. Are they trying to be like, hey, we can be trusted? We're in the middle? Because we looked at the database interviews and contrasted them. Excuse me. Contrasted those interviews, one with walls, and then the other with-- I mean, I'm sorry, one with vance, and then the other with Kamala and walls that first sit down interview. And so when we contrasted them, we saw a different temperament from her, not nearly as combative. But now it sounds like on the backside of this, the interviewer herself might have been-- she felt frustrated by the pair, correct? Yeah. And maybe I'll get to this Dana Bash audio. There's another bit of audio from last night. I'd rather play first just to make sure we get it in. But yeah, Bash didn't seem-- after that interview, she was like, you just keep asking them, one, two, three times, and you don't get a clear answer. She said, for me, once shame on you, for me twice, shame on me. So she didn't seem too happy with the end result from her interview. And remember, they had all kinds of editing power, I guess the Harris campaign did, and they were allowed to say what aired or what didn't aired in part of this. But last night, so you have Erin Burnett, a CNN anchor. And they bring on like this, I guess, fact checker-- I don't know, she'll lay out his position with the company here in this clip. But they start talking about the flip-flops of Kamala Harris, which it's apparent to everyone right now that she's flip-flopped on so many things that are vital to her winning this election, whether it's fracking or immigration or what have you. Listen to this clip. This is Erin Burnett, CNN last night. You would think CNN would be all hands on deck for Kamala, and I'm sure many of them are. But she actually sound kind of surprised by some of what this other CNN host found out. Tonight, Kamala Harris released details of her policy positions for the first time on her campaign website. A K-file investigation has uncovered, meantime, a 2019 questionnaire. And in this questionnaire, Harris laid out some much more liberal stances among them on immigration. So in 2019, in what K-file found, she said she would cut funding to ICE, writing quote, "Our immigrant detention system is out of control, "and I believe we must end the unfair incarceration "of thousands of individuals, families, and children. "I was one of the first senators after President Trump "was elected to advocate for a decrease in funding to ICE." Well now, of course, she's touting the Biden administration's executive order to crack down on the border. K-Files Andrew Kuzinski joins me now. Andrew, that's pretty incredible on its own when you're talking about what you found here on ICE. What else did you find? Yeah, and this was a questionnaire that she filled out for the ACLU. And this questionnaire is really an interesting snapshot in time of that 2019 Democratic primary. Kamala Harris was trying to get to the left of Bernie Sanders. She was trying to get to the left of Elizabeth Warren, and you really see that in a lot of these answers, and I want to walk our viewers through a little bit of what she said. Let's just take immigration and look at what she said here. She said on immigration, she made this open-ended pledge to end immigrant detention. She said she supported taxpayer-funded gender transition surgeries for detained migrants. She also said, "Taxer-funded gender transition surgeries for detained migrants." She actually said she supported that. She both wrote and answered in the affirmative when she was asked this. And she said she also supported it for federal prisoners. Now, she also pledged to slash immigration detention by 50% close all family and private facilities and decrease funding for ICE. And then the end ICE detainers with local law enforcement. I mean, these are things that, you know, it would be hard to think that you would come up with taxpayer-funding gender transitions for detained migrants. And yet, as you say, written and verbally. You know, what else did you find? Well, let's take a look at her answer here on drugs. She got asked about, you know, the question from the ACLU was, since drug use is better addressed as a public health issue through treatment and other programming, will you support the decriminalization at the federal level of all drug possession for personal use? And Harris answers, yes. Now, what would that mean? Well, it mean the federal all drug possession. That's not just marijuana, which she alluded to in her answer to this question. But it also would mean, you know-- Yes, federal level of all drug possession-- Fentanyl, drugs, drugs, drugs. You know, the cocaine, things like that, yeah. Have they responded to you on her changes on these issues? So we did put this question to the Harris campaign about the entire ACLU questionnaire. And the Harris campaign didn't answer any questions from CNN. Instead, they just provided a statement from an unnamed Harris campaign advisor that just said, the vice president's positions have been shaped by three years of effective governance as part of the Biden-Harris administration. Now, they declined to CNN to elaborate on what those positions were. And then they also provided this statement, which they attributed to his folks for saying, as president, she will take that same pragmatic approach, focusing on common sense solutions for the sake of progress. So where does she stand on this all this question? Or today, we don't know, and they won't say. It's pretty incredible stuff. And thank you very much. So let's see it in. That's last night? That's last night. That wasn't Fox News. That wasn't Newsmax. Where did you find that? Found it online, just like I find everything else. But where did we're in particular? What's the story saying, hey, look at this? Yeah, it was someone who said, hey, look, CNN is absolutely going after Kamala for her previous stances. CNN just aired a three-minute segment, exposing Kamala's absolutely insane record at left Aaron Burnett in shock. That was the post that I found there. So what is this with CNN? Is it a, they see how this race is going with the polls trending down for Kamala? I don't know. And seeing everything, do they feel burnt by the Harris campaign that they haven't maybe received as much access as they like? Or are they trying to move to the center, which might be a kind of a combination of both of those, trying to move to the center to increase their viewership? Yeah, it's again, it's like, what is the conversation in those boardrooms or in those pregame meetings or when they're prepping the show or larger level when they're mapping out how they're going to, you know, present this election? And what are those conversations like? I'd love to know that. Yeah, but, and there's got to, everything leaks, something's going to leak out of there, but that's a very, I would have never guessed that. That CNN would run that, yeah. I would have never, and then like we said earlier, Danabash doesn't seem too pleased with the end result from her interview with them. She seems kind of burnt too. It's like, did she do that in an interview? Did she say that simply on the air? Or who did she say that too? You know what I'm saying? Did she do an interview in a magazine thing? Yeah, didn't it go too well? And then I don't like the way they treated me there. Or was it something that she simply said during her show on the air, you know? I, I, it. Oh, the Danabash. Yeah, she was being interviewed by someone else. Yeah, when she said that. How about that? Very interesting. Yeah. You're text, and we get back to 513430106.

And it will include Paul, a Parker Griffith, the former US representative, always a good time. ALGOP, AL2, GOP nominee, Carolyn Dobson. I think we've got hers against tomorrow too, correct? - That's right. - And ALGOP chairman, John Wall, all on the Jeff Poor Show and it's just a few minutes away. - I'm sure, you were wondering about the debate, maybe a college game day style thing leading into the debate tonight. That kind of sounds what the Jeff Poor Show will be today. You'll have Parker Griffith for one side of the debate, John Wall for the other, and then celebrity guest picker, Caroline Dobson. - Right in the middle. - And I have a feeling I know who Caroline will pick for tonight's debate, so we shall see. As far as the space adventuring, you were asking whether our listeners would take the bait and go. - Yeah, if you were gifted a trip to space on SpaceX, now I would be much more willing to go up on a SpaceX rocket than a Boeing Starliner. - Amen. - I don't say that much. - But not all rockets were made the same, are they? - That's correct. Gulf Coast Girl says space. If your desire for exploration and adventure outweighs the possibility of not living out the rest of your life on Earth, then go for it, not for me. - You know, America, especially in the early days of our country, we were all about the wild frontier, right? And moving westward, now it's just moving northward. And I think America has to continue to take that bull by the horns. We've got to be the ones, we've got to be the winners in a Elon. - I wouldn't be real critical of a long time listening to Gulf Coast Girl. - Oh, I'm not. - Because it seemed like you were just taking a shot at her. (laughing) - If this young lady didn't want to go to space. (laughing) I don't think she should be chastised on FM Talk 10065. - And yeah, John. Okay, he's section about space as well. Maybe we'll continue this conversation tomorrow, along with your full recap of tonight's debate, the mobile mornings on the way tomorrow morning at six.
