I'm Sally Helm with the podcast History This Week. In each episode, we serve as your eyes and ears into history's biggest events, major elections, world wars, scientific breakthroughs, but we also bring you into the smaller behind-the-scenes stories, the unsung heroes, secret meetings, even personal grudges that changed the course of history. Listen to and follow History This Week and Odyssey Podcast in partnership with the History Channel, available now for free on the Odyssey app and wherever you get your podcasts. - Caitlin Company, weekday morning, six till 10. - Trump, JD Vance, Kamala Harris, Chuck Schumer, and others. I don't think I've ever seen those four or five people together that close, maybe ever. As we know, Trump and Harris face-to-face for the first time last night. Tony Bruno, I know today is a lot about the fallout from the debate, the impact of the election where we get a second debate, but again, we can't lose sight of what happened 23 years ago today. We've all kind of shared our flashbacks to that day where we were. Could you share that with our audience, where you were on September 11th, 2001? - Well, I was actually in L.A. when I had moved to Los Angeles to start Fox Sports Radio, so I got there in 2020. And so, fast forward, first year on the air, that morning of September 11th in 2021, August 2001, I was on the air with Andrew Cicilliano, and we were doing a sports show, and we were goofing off about Michael Jordan back in that day. And then all of a sudden, we had a bank of TVs in our studios in Los Angeles, and I see the first glimpse of the building being hit and smoke was coming out. We didn't know it was an airplane, we didn't know it was going on. And so at that moment, once we finally realized that it was a terrorist attack, we dropped sports, and Andrew and I, both with news backgrounds, immediately went into news mode. We went into journalism mode, because sports talk is irrelevant when you have the greatest story, when I say greatest, the most impactful story, many people in their lives had ever seen. We stayed on the air for nine hours, 'cause I didn't wanna leave the studio. We were stunned, we were getting phone calls. Larry King called into the show. I had friends, panel Brian, was supposed to be on the plane from Boston, and nobody could hear from him. So we were getting news breaking every 10 seconds back then, and everybody was glued to the radio. So it was one of the proud moments of my career, because you can't run away from the story of that magnitude, when your audience is listening. And every year on this date, I get emails from all over the country of people saying that they remember where they were that day, and they were listening to me on national radio. So again, a proud moment for me, but also I was living through just like everybody else, the shock and the disbelief of what we were witnessing on that day. - Tony Bruno with us from Florida. So a couple of other stories that we have to get your thoughts on outside of 9/11, and obviously the debate last night. The Tyreek Hill body cam footage, and the arrest or the detainment that occurred on Sunday, during the pregame shows, probably around 11 o'clock before a one o'clock kickoff, has certainly been one of, if not the top two or three stories for the last couple of days in the news cycle. And my big takeaway was that, look, were the officers a little sarcastic? Were they a little combative and testy, yes. But again, he broke the law. He didn't adhere, he didn't comply, he was dealt with. And my big takeaway was, I'm tired of living in this world, post George Floyd for the last four years, where it's suddenly optional for you to comply with officers. If you just do what they ask, you will be well on your way, and this would have been a big nothing burger. I still think largely it is a big nothing burger, because you compare it to the Scotty Sheffler situation, he was actually put in a jail holding cell, but your thoughts on Tyreek Hill and the way this whole thing went down. - First of all, you could say I have my cat here, and my cat has been marked safe from Haitian immigrants and being eaten. So this cat will not be eaten anywhere today because she's a beautiful rag doll, Miss Lily. All right, let me get her out. Yeah, I mean, listen, I saw the video, and then I saw I'm watching the Monday night pregame show and Ian Rappaport on NFL Network was calling it shocking, shocking story. And he basically was going, and again, if cops do bad stuff, I will call out the cops. But here's the thing, he was going very fast. If you've seen the video and the cops were Hispanic, so it wasn't a race thing, and let's put yourself in this place. What would happen to you if you had a $700,000 car? - I have two of you. - Or two of those. And you're going 100 miles an hour or really way above the speed limit. And that's the lane that goes into the parking lot where the Dolphins play at Hard Rock Field in Miami. So you saw it, there were cones, it was going down to one lane. And he wasn't late for the game because this was way before the game. So it wasn't like he was trying to get there and he was late and wasn't gonna play. He got to the game on time. But put anybody else in that situation. In a lot of states, you can't have tinted windows. So just on the violations of Florida law, he had like five violations. The fact that he wouldn't lower his window when he finally stopped is one of the biggest concerns that police have. You don't know who's in the car. You think they know, does it matter if it's to retiree kill? - No. - It mattered because he got away with it. But if it's somebody else in a car, it doesn't have to be a $700,000 McLaren. But if it's a regular car and it's got tinted windows and you're speeding and you get pulled over and you refuse to lower the window, and then when you do, you don't have your seat belts on, right, then you close the window again, you don't show the cop your hands. I don't care what color you are, where you live. There were at least five law violations in that one incident. And forget about the attitude and the cop bringing him out. He didn't comply. And they didn't know what was going on. With the cops a little overzealous, they didn't hurt him. - No. - And then Lance Campbell shows up in his $700,000 SUV and he gets involved. To me, any other person, what would happen if it wasn't to retiree kill? If it wasn't to retiree kill, any person in that situation would have been arrested, put in jail, taken in a squad car and his car would have been impounded. That's what would have happened to anybody else who violated that many state laws in that dangerous situation. What happened if he hit somebody going that fast, going to the game? What happens if people walked in the middle of the street and he hit them? You know, would that have been okay? So he got away with a lot and the fact that they're turning this into an anti-police thing. And then he goes on CNN with his lawyer the same night and now is blaming the cops, you know? And then the Miami-Dolphin team puts out this ridiculous statement where they say, you know, we're disgusted by the conduct of the Miami-Dade cops. And in the meantime, we still love working with the police though. We want them to protect us and we want them to make sure they're outside the stadium in case there's a brawl between the Jets fans and Miami-Dolphin fans, you can't have it both ways. Listen, I'm not, I'm back to blue and I will call out any cop that does something wrong. But they just could say that the cops acted stupidly as Obama once said about the cops that went to that guy's house up in Boston when Obama started this whole race-baiting thing back in his early and his first term is a joke. He broke the laws and he got away with it and he should be grateful that he wasn't put in jail and he wasn't facing major, major fines. Now he's the victim and that's the nonsense that really pisses people off. - And I'm so glad you brought up the officers' ethnicity because you're right, they are Hispanic and those officers, both of them, specifically one, I know for sure, said, don't try playing the race card with me, we're color of people too. So you're not gonna work that nonsense in because they've had to deal with all this crap for the last four years. And you know, I mean, Sunday, Stephen A. Smith is tweeting about it, Jamel Hill is writing about it. So all the race-baters that are the defund the police segment of sports media immediately wanted to make this a major police, major racial thing. And I'm looking at it from the perspective of specifically Jamel Hill, who then comes out and says that Stephen Ross, the owner of the Dolphins, who's a big Trump supporter, she blames him because she says, well, under Trump there's gonna be no prosecution and police will be able to operate with impunity. And I'm thinking, wait a minute, so you really think Stephen Ross wants to see or have his star receiver that he's paying a hundred plus million dollars to get arrested for a traffic violation. But when you live in this little prism, Tony, of only seeing things through the racial prism and racial lens, it totally clouds your objectivity and your ability to view what happened here. He broke the law, he didn't comply on top of it. And yeah, the cops were a little bit over the top with them, but if I'm assessing blame, it's like 90% tirey kill, 10% the police at best. - Exactly, I mean, if I've gotten stopped many times driving and didn't break the law and didn't know what happened, I pull over, I put my hands up. I don't do the hands up, don't shoot because that was debunked as a lie too. I put my hands and I say, you know, when the cops says, well, you know, like driver's license and registration, I take it out, I give it to them. And then I say, sir, why am I being stopped? And then we'll tell me why, and then everything's good. And if I didn't break the law, I didn't break the law. If I did, I get my ticket and I move on. But the people defending this and trying to make it about Trump is just an absolute joke. It's an absolute joke. How many cops have been shot in the last year doing their jobs, responding to domestic violence incidents and cops are getting killed every single night by criminals and wants to be a policeman anymore? That's why people don't want to become cops. We just had the story. Don gave the update this morning of the officer that was on life support since June after that situation in Kensington and he passed away. So yes. Yeah, they just saw, you know, the officers just transported his body this morning. Oh, awful. To a funeral home. So now this whole anti-cop thing and, you know, Trump's a racist and all these tired, tired lies is just ridiculous, just ridiculous. I mean, anybody who can't see through this really doesn't pay attention. But it is Biden, Harris, Trump, JD Vance and Mike Bloomberg all at the 9/11 ceremony in New York this morning. Well, that's the way it should be. Yes. Yeah, yeah, partisan look for sure. No doubt about it. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, bipartisan. Let's wrap here in about the final three or four minutes. We had the Eagles game last Friday. It feels like an eternity ago. They're getting ready for the home opener Monday night against the Falcons, long 10-day stretch between games. I heard a lot of people, you know, upset that the Eagles didn't look good. And I agree, they didn't look good. But this to me was not like last year where they were 10-1 and they were winning, but they were struggling and then the bottom fell out. I mean, this was, if I remember, the spread was two points and they were able to win by five against a good team. So I don't think that this is a bad win. I feel pretty good considering it was pretty sloppy. I agree. I mean, it was sloppy for both teams. The field was a joke. Nobody could get their footing. You know, take one on his first run, slips in fall. So both teams had to play on a bad field and they had to keep changing their spikes. But then the Eagles, you know, the Eagles played poorly. And then, you know, Jalen Hurts, they were able to keep him contained so he couldn't run around the edge where he was successful. So good coaching, you know, by the Green Bay Packers, a good team. But the Eagles, when crunch time came and they were able to get back into the game and settle down and they had their big-time performers, Saquon, you know, AJ Brown, the star players rose up and then Jalen Hurts rose up in that final drive when he had to get him down there, run the clock down to where the Green Bay Packers didn't have enough time to go down and score touchdown to win the game. So it's a win, was it pretty no, but with a new offensive coordinator, new defensive coordinator and things now back in shape, trying to get things, and none of these guys played in preseason, that's the other big thing. But when you look at the two first games, the Thursday night game and the Eagles game on Friday night, both high-scoring games. And so teams on offense is still gonna dominate in the NFL because all the rules benefit the offense and the defense can't get near anybody. And that's the bottom line. So a big win on the road, people are still mad that the Eagles had to give up a home game in Brazil, but the good thing is nothing bad happened. Everybody seemed to have a good time despite the playing conditions. And the fact that their quarterback got hurt and nobody wanted to see that. But that was a hard fought game and the Eagles, that's a big, big win to start the season with a whole new coaching staff for the most part. - Yeah, I would agree. Lastly, let's get to the fills, 87 and 58. They are now up eight on both the Mets and the Braves. By my math, they're up eight with 17 to go. Is it time to thank the Mets and Braves for participating in divisional title races? - Well, obviously the Phillies are doing what they have to do. Every time they lose, everybody goes crazy and fairly, right? But they're the best team at baseball. Nine to four, they win last night. There was a bench clearing incident where they threw at Nick Castellanos in the ninth inning of a nine, eight in the bottom of the eighth of a nine, four game. The bench is emptied. So they're still fighting this team. They just got to make sure guys get healthy. Swarber, by the way, Kyle Swarber, new Major League record, his 14th lead off home run, the most in baseball history. And you know, I know Ricky Henderson was a better lead off hitter and there are a lot of better lead off hitters statistically. But there's never been a guy who looks like Kyle Swarber, who hits for a low average, who has been as dominant as a lead off guy where he's hit what, 35 home runs and 14 of them in the lead off spot. An amazing, amazing statistic. - Indeed. Tony Bruno, great stuff, brother. We'll talk to you next week. All right, I got to go fact check myself and see how many times I lied. And I'm gonna call David Muir and see if he's awake and see if he even bothers to show up at ABC today after that embarrassment. He should be suspended for a week without pay. - I agree. - After that performance. - He should be assigned, he should be assigned a desk duty Tony. He should be sent to Rockchester at the ABC station up there and try to get his act together. - Exactly, send him back to the minors. Great stuff, brother, thank you. All right, guys, have a great one. - There he is, Tony Bruno, live from Florida. - I'm Sally Helm with the podcast History This Week.

This is the Kaling Company podcast from Dark Radio 1210WPHD and on the free Odyssey app. - Let me, and we got a lot of 9/11 stuff that's a nice refresher to break from some of the Trump stuff, obviously, a commemoration of the tragic days of 23 years ago. Let me go to line two. I've got Frank in South Philadelphia, remembering 9/11. Frank, you go right ahead, sir. - Good morning. Drowning the rest of the people there that's on the station today. I'm standing in my South Philadelphia Veterans Memorial, it's called "Off For One" that I built. And I got the flag, the American flag at Half Mass, for all the people that died at 2,900 plus at 9/11, 23 years ago, and he first responders. And also, I got it up here, the flag at Half Mass, for the 18 people that died in the Middle of Middle East, which Sleepy Joe or Joe to doesn't know and left in Hainina, Harris, that didn't show no respect for the 13 Gold Stars, never went to the cemetery, four miles away from the cemetery, and she didn't even have the respect to, or the honor to turn around and go see the Gold Star people there to honor the men and women that died over there, the 13 in Afghanistan, two in Jordan, I'm sorry, two in on the two Navy shields, and also the three in Jordan. They got killed over there. It's sad that this administration showed no respect for the soldiers or show for the 9/11 people that died over there on the attack on terrorists. And I guess they, maybe they're with the terrorist people, the country that are terrorists. - Well, Frank, she did post on social media, you know, a few days ago or maybe two weeks ago, three or four sentences with a screenshot of her official letterhead, but you're right. It's a, look, we know who's far more pro-patriotic when it comes to the country, when you look at Republican versus Democrat, for sure. Dave is in Atco, New Jersey, he's got some comments. Dave, you go right ahead. - Okay, on this summer day, the perfect movie you picked, World Trade Center. - Yes. - Yes. Congratulations. Oh, Dave, you're the movie winner. - Yes. - Okay, okay. - Yes. - Yeah, okay. I thought you wanted to talk about 9/11 in the World Trade Center, but yes, you're right, that is the movie clip. Congratulations, you got the Jeff Lynn. - Thank you very much. - Okay. - You got it Dave, thank you very much. And lastly, let me get to another Dave in Southampton. Dave, your own talk radio at 1210. - Yeah, how you doing now? Listen to talk about Tyree Kill. - Yeah. - You know, the guy obviously broke the law and then he acts like a thug when the police get there. But bottom line, like, you know, he didn't go to jail like another high part pro-pile athlete, Scottie Scheffler a few months ago. - Correct. - I mean, all these race hustlers talk about white privilege, you know, white privilege led to Scheffler getting an orange jumpsuit and a mugshot. - Yep, no, you're exactly right. And again, look, and I've brought this up in the past. I mean, I've had, you know, times where I've been pulled over for speeding. I can admit that. I've been probably pulled over in my lifetime four or five times and in 20, I started driving in 16, 24 years, I've probably been pulled over five or six times. And I told you when I was 16, I got into an accident. And the only negative altercation I ever had with a police officer, because I believe 99% of cops are good cops and good people. And you're always gonna have one or two bad apples for sure. And the cop, when I got into the accident, because I almost hit a bike cop when I was in a different locale, 20 minutes earlier, and he heard it on the radio that six miles later, I got into an accident and I t-boned somebody 'cause I went through an intersection. And that bike cop came up as my mom was there, you know, 'cause I'm 16 at the time. And the cop said, and I've told this story on the radio before, you're lucky you didn't hit me because I'm about to rip off your head and bleep down your throat. And look, I deserve that verbal butt chewing. I really did. Was it over the top? Yes, was he gonna do that? No, I can separate fact from reality. But there are times when a cop is unprofessional. And I do think that those two cops probably didn't do the best job of de-escalating. But as I said with Bruno and I said yesterday, this is 90% on tirey kill. And the fact that the media and those with an agenda, which is why I waited 'til the body cam footage came out, the body cam footage is the concrete evidence. Not some guy on social media that records 48 seconds and then shares it and everybody jumps to conclusions. We gotta stop looking at like this snippet society we live in of 12 seconds out of 23 minutes and making these generic sweeping dispersions on somebody. Which is why, again, I think the body cam footage shows. Now, it doesn't mean these cops aren't gonna get disciplined. Doesn't mean they're not gonna get fired because in today's absurd climate of demoralizing and demonizing police, it's possible. But I don't think that those officers deserve to be fired at all. Maybe anything, just even though it was funny as hell, like the Jeff surgery on your ears made me crack up, but it probably doesn't de-escalate the situation.

Cut Sheet Part 2 is next. - This is the Kaling Company podcast from Dark Radio 1210 WPHD and on the free Odyssey app. - What? - What? - I'm the Cut Sheet! - I dare. - That's how the Cut Sheet Part 2. - That's right, sponsored by Natural Lands, the best carbon capture system, has already been invented trees.

Natural Lands lands for life, nature for all. All right, what are the undecided voters, the focus groups? What did they think of last night's debate? CNN went to Erie, Pennsylvania. - Hey! - And talk to one undecided voter. This is Cut 28, Phil. Oh, that's right, you're playing this thing. This is Cut 28, Phil, go. - What did you see that brought you to a conclusion? - I think it's important to remember that we are voting for the leader of our country and not who we like the most or who we want in our wedding party, but who is actually going to make our country better? And we're in an incredibly unique situation where we've had both of the candidates in office before and we've gotten to see what they would do. And when facts come to facts, my life was better when Trump was in office. The economy was higher, inflation was lower, things were better overall. And now with Kamala's administration, things haven't been so fantastic. And she's saying she can fix the problems that her administration has caused, but I just don't know if I can afford to take that risk. - Were you? Well, and she's had three years and 10 months as the number two in command to make those adjustments and she has failed to do so. I agree with everything she said. Unfortunately, I don't think the selection is about results and bargain shopping and comparing product A to product B, which is the unique element of this, right? You can compare Trump's years versus her years. It should be, if you're doing the blind taste test, it should be a no-brainer. But that's not the way it works, unfortunately. - By the way, 23 years ago, exactly. And now the Pentagon was struck at 9.38 a.m. Just, yeah. - Yeah. - I just, you know, I want to weave this stuff in. - Of course. - I do think it's important to, you know, make sure we remember this and never forget it. We started off, actually we started off the show this morning at 6.05 talking about this. - Yeah. - So if you just tuned in now, be like, oh, where was it, you know? - Yeah, we started off news. - CBS is post debate focus group on Harris. I am actually going to play this one, Phil. This was what they, what their takeaways were. - She just basically repeated everything that Biden has said in the past. - What were your thoughts? - She made Donald Trump made a strong closing statement by saying why didn't they do all the things that she's proposing during the three and a half years that they've been in the office and Biden did this entire moderate stance back in 2020. And she's trying to do it again in 2024, but she didn't talk about her policy changes between 2020 and 2024. Her whole centrist, moderate stance is just a facade. - Look, I totally agree with that as well. And when we're talking about the policies, I mean, it took up until the eve, before the day of the debate, it was Monday night into Tuesday morning, where there was no policy on her website. And she really didn't go into policy specifics again last night. And what's on the website is a copy and paste job of a lot of Biden's economic policies and the few that she has verbalized incoherently to the American public in the last three weeks. And some of it also plagiarized from Trump and Vance's platform. - We discussed this earlier. Trump called into Fox and Friends this morning on the, 'cause we've been going back and forth about it, if there's gonna be a second debate. My stance is a firm, absolutely not. There will not be a second debate. Nick, would you like to give your? - Yes, I do not think right now we will see a second debate largely because twofold. One, Kamala Harris is probably, if you're looking at Kamala Harris from a stock perspective, after that debate in the mainstream media eyes, she's probably never going to have the arrow pointing up further than it is right now. Yes, you could argue that confidence is a big thing. She now has the experience. Maybe she would do better a second time around again, which is why I think her campaign is saying, "Hey, that wasn't so bad after." It's like, you know, when you go on the roller coaster and you get off of it and you're like, "That wasn't as bad as I thought." She's probably like, "Let's get back in line. Let's go again." But here's the, if you're Trump, I think Trump would benefit if he says, "Let's do it again." Yes, I'd like to do it on Fox News. No, I don't want Brett Baer, Martha McCallum, even though I think those will be absolutely fine by my vantage point. But I would actually argue if you're Trump, you want open mics this time and you know what? Let her have notes, you have notes as well because you're not gonna have fact checkers on your side. So if you can have some of that stuff in front of you, it makes it easier for you to stay on task with what you wanna say while looking down to be able to fact check and point her. And if he's prepped properly, like you said by Zioli and not gonna put Chris Christie back in the day, he can have the proper facts to say, "Well, no, no, that's a lie. And here's why I'm gonna tell you, and here's the source." So, but I don't-- - The Harris campaign put out after the debate that they wanted a second debate. - Of course they do. - We haven't, you know, Trump is talking about how ABC, they should be fired, it was rigged. So it's the Trump campaign that may not want a second debate as of this morning. - Well, he said, "Do you think there's gonna be a second debate, Don?" - I do. - Okay, this is what Donald Trump said on Fox and Friends this morning. - Mr. President, I know when we started the interview, you said that you felt that you won the debate last night, your best ever. I think before the debate happened last night, the Kamala Harris people said that they would actually like to do another debate in October, and I know that last night, Fox News offered, sent letters to your campaign and her campaign offering three dates of debates moderated by Martha and Brett. One is October 9th in Arizona. - Well, I wouldn't wanna have Martha and Brett. I'd love to have somebody else other than Martha and Brett. I'd love to have, frankly, Sean or Jesse or Laura, you know, somebody else, let's give other people a shot. But I didn't think Martha and Brett were a good last night. Jesse was fantastic last night, what he said. Jesse really got it. Jesse said Trump won that debate. That was, we won that debate by a lot. Now I wouldn't want Martha involved. - Okay, Mr. President. - I would take some others. So two things, one, I would be totally fine with Martha and Brett, but people are, and look, yes, I don't think Kamala would ever agree to anybody from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Fox News moderating it. - That's Shannon Breen. - That would be solid, but let me defend Trump for a second. The guy has walked into the lion's den on everybody else's own terms. Everybody else's own conditions. I want it on CNN. I want it on ABC. Give me Tapper. Give me Muir. Why, why is it, why is it wrong? Muir, what, bozo from ABC? - Yeah. - Why, why is it so bad for Trump to ask for somebody that we know is a partisan hack? Why can't Trump get that for once? And yeah, I called Jesse Waters and all the partisan hacks. Yes, they are, and they would make a tough on Kamala, but they've made it tough for Trump every time. - Here's Faulkner would be good. What about Harris? - I'd be fine with any of them, but Trump shouldn't be ridiculed. I mean, my God, Kamala, Kamala Harris knew it was, it was rigged in her favor with somebody that gives 100%. How can you, let me ask you this. Let's look at this objectively. How can you be the lowest rated vice president of all time? And the alleged, most watched, trusted source in news media on network television in evening hours of 6 and 7 p.m. Has a 100% positive spin score for the worst vice president of all time. That, my friends, is called the fix. So if Trump wants to live in that moment as well, he's entitled to say that. I have no problem with him saying it. He's not gonna get it, but there's nothing wrong with him saying that. - What's more important than the moderators, I don't care who moderates it, what's more important is to be allowed to have a crowd, to have an audience, and I would suggest, take questions from the audience. - Yes. - Get real people. - Oh yes, and not pre-approved questions from the audience either, where there's some low-level functionnaires up there screening them in advance. I want real, I want talk radio. I mean, there's nothing scripted about this show. When there's a person on line four, I have no, half the time we don't even have the right description on the call screen or anyway. (laughing) I want more authentic, organic conversations because I do think that's where Trump will thrive and excel. - I wanna play this before we hand the reins over to Don. So JD Vance was on with Caitlyn Collins after the debate and she brought up the migrant-eating pets situation. And I wanted to play this, this is Cut 22, Phil Go. I just wanna see if we can. - Well, I think there may be some women voters who would have liked for him to answer that question. The other thing that he brought up, which I was kind of surprised by, I guess I would say is he brought up this misleading, false claim that you yourself have talked about in recent days about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, abducting people's pets and eating them, which officials there have said is not true. You yourself acknowledged it may be false on Twitter. You still told people to keep spreading it. But Trump just amplified it to tens of millions of people who were watching. Why push something that's not true? - Well, first of all, city officials have not said it's not true. They said they don't have all the evidence. - They said they have no evidence. - We've heard from a number of constituents on the ground, Caitlyn, who both first hand and second hand reports saying this stuff is happening. So they very clearly, meaning the people on the ground dealing with this, think that it is happening. And I think that it's important for journalists to actually get on the ground and uncover this stuff for themselves. When you have a lot of people saying, my pets are being abducted or geese at the city pond are being abducted and slaughtered right in front of us. This is crazy stuff. And again, whether those exact rumors turn out to be mostly true, somewhat true, whatever the case may be, Caitlyn, this town has been ravaged by 20,000 migrants coming in, healthcare costs are up, housing costs are up, communicable diseases like HIV and TB have skyrocketed in this small Ohio town. This is what Kamala Harris' border policies have done. - You know, all of that can be true and valid and certainly the diseases and the numbers, I think, are all true. But if you're kind of hitching your wagon to this, well, I mean, for lack of a better phrase like that moment in "Dum and Dumber" where they ripped the head of the bird off and killed my bird, Petey. Like, if you think that's what's gonna win you the election, it's such a distraction. - Yeah, there's so many bigger fish to fry. I wouldn't put all my eggs in that basket. - As I said yesterday, it's about people, not pets. It was what escalated this whole thing. It started about a year ago and you have this growing number of 20,000 people sending on a small town. And many of them are welcome and hard-working. Unfortunately, though, one year ago, there was a 36-year-old Haitian immigrant who's now in jail and he actually caused a fatal accident into a school bus. He went, it was going the wrong way, crashed into a school bus, injuring dozens of children, killing an 11-year-old little boy named Aiden. That's what started this whole thing. Talk about Aiden. Talk about the humanitarian crisis. Don't talk about these other stories that he's acknowledging may be true, but they're not verified. So why talk about pets? Talk about people. - All right, we have to get to today's music history. It is sponsored this morning by budget blinds, Nikhil. ♪ What happened on this day in music history ♪ ♪ Music history is three on a jail company ♪ - Today, September 11th, and I am back.
