The Big Take
We have the announcement from investigators from multiple agencies, they are going to be exuming more unidentified human remains, at least the remains of eight people from the Potters Field in the Park Woods section of Philadelphia on Dunks Ferry Road. So police say that operation known as the remains identification project, RIP taking place throughout the week, but today it looks like they'll begin exuming these eight bodies and they're using advanced technology, investigators hoping to ID these murder victims from decades ago, even from, you know, 40, 50, 60 years ago, using DNA testing and then that sequencing to apply forensic investigative genetic genealogy techniques, remember the boy in the box story that we had talked a lot about where that was an unsolved murder, they were able to trace his genealogy and bring forth some closure. So in this one, they believe, they hope that all of the new technology, they have the new crime lab relatively new in the Philadelphia area and some new technology to help them. So Philadelphia Police Department, the city's medical examiner's office, the FBI are conducting this joint operation between, you know, federal, state and local to try to bring some closure to these murder victims. Well, it's great for those families for sure, I know my wife loves to watch these types of shows where they do all this, you know, advanced investigative technology to, you know, solve these crimes that have gone decades unresolved. What causes, like, for people to be buried in a quote unquote Potter field, what causes them to like just not follow up on the, you know, who these people are? I think that they have a protocol, they wait a certain period of time. And if nobody, and if nobody comes forward, interesting, you know, yeah, because it wasn't one of these, like a four year old or something. Well, the famous boy in the box and then they traced his genealogy, was he, you know, was he a child who was adopted? Was he a child who was, you know, abused and they wanted to cover up the abuse? Yeah. So some of these may, may very well be domestic violence kind of victims, but others could be, you know, people who maybe, you know, came from another part of the country, moved here. Maybe they, no family here. No family here. So maybe they were kidnapped or maybe they were, you know, moved from someplace and they themselves were domestic violence victim or something of that nature. Well, resources could also be an issue as well, right? Sure. So. Well, back in the day, you know, we didn't have all this technology and even think about it. Just, we didn't have the internet to put out descriptions of people to get a hold of people, you know, from across the country. How did we live before the internet? I know. What did we do with our time? We had freedom. We had mental health. We didn't have as much mental health issues. See. And we weren't obese. Well, the speaking of high tech, the upper Derby, the upper Derby school board voting unanimously last night to put in place a weapons detection system at its high school, as well as two middle schools. And this is after parents have essentially begged the district to take action. And this was following the discoveries. I mean, we've seen the discoveries of a bullet here, a gun there, but more recently, a loaded gun and an AR, you know, style magazine, a higher power firearm, semi automatic at the high school, just earlier this month. And so parents, I think this school year had it and we're begging the school board to do something. They're going to invest looks like about a million dollars into this. And it's going to be a high tech system, much like we see it's Citizens Bank Park. Is it going? I mean, is it a metal detector? What exactly do we know what the actual well, that's what I'm wondering because at Citizens Bank Park, they have that newer technology where you can just, if you pre register, you can walk through, you're pre registered and they have facial recognition. Yeah. And so that's what I was trying to read about this. It's called an Evolve system. They use AI artificial intelligence. They detect possible weapons. And so my question with part of this is if it's detecting possible weapons will it also involve any kind of recognition. Right. Citizens Bank Park. My concern is if you do that thing, like you do at Citizens Bank Park and you avoid, you know, detection, I mean, then you're going to slip through the crack, so to speak, if you have sinister intentions, right? Because then you don't have to go through a metal detector, especially if you're, if you're playing, you know, not leaving Citizens Bank Park or school, if you have those intentions of this is my last day on earth. So I think we have to be careful with that. I know everybody wants these convenient ways to enter big venues, but at the expense of what? Anybody else's safety? Yeah. So I'm sure as they roll it out, I mean, there are, you know, just at the high school, this is a huge institution for about 4,500 students, you know, and then you look at the faculty on top of it. So this, it looks like it'll be $1.1 million over four years for this brand new system. So parents have supported it. The board approved of it. We'll find out more details as we move forward. So as Mayor Cheryl Parker, we are going to hear from Mayor Parker holding a news conference later today to talk about the details of this, what's known as a billion dollar investment by the Philadelphia 76ers to build this new arena. She is saying it's much more than just a sports arena. She says this is an opportunity to revive Philadelphia, bring back to life market street from basically city hall to the river. Oh, so it's an opportunity economy. We've heard that before. So she's very excited about this. Obviously she's saying that this will revitalize the city and everybody will benefit those in Chinatown say it will devastate and essentially destroy the spirit and the heart of Chinatown and the culture there. And she said promising that's not going to happen. We don't have the details. They've been very tight, lived about this. We expect to get that whole plan, the whole big reviews like a reveal party. We'll get that today. But then I noted that city council has about 30 days to then present it to city council and then they vote on it. So that's your process. Yeah, trust the process. Trust the process. Crushed your rel. She's got everything under control, folks. And I know we have news of Butler County, Pennsylvania, I'll just headline it a report on what happened in Butler, PA. We talked yesterday about the excitement building as former president Donald J. Trump plans to hold that campaign rally and keep the promise to honor the great firefighting hero Corey compare a tour. But now this report coming about out about the assassination attempt here in Butler as far as what the Secret Service did and what they failed to do. And then as well, I know we're going to talk about the other accused attempted assassination that happened in Florida. So just giving you some headlines that we're going to talk about all of those things. And then Kamala Harris, her campaign coming here to Pennsylvania. We have to talk about what happened at Citizens Bank Park last night. Our Phillies did not get her done. So we did not earn that by that we had hoped. The Phillies losing to the Cubs 10 to 2, maybe some have speculated did they celebrate a little bit too much after the night before clinching the NL East Division title the first in 13 years. I don't know. But it was not pretty. I missed out on an opportunity to get rich and retire. My buddy sent me a text yesterday. They're like, dude, they're celebrating like they won the World Series bet on the Cubs tonight. And I'm like, I can't do it. That's what they say. Yeah, and they did and I didn't and now they're less poor. But you're going to have it because you did not vote again. You didn't go against your team. Oh, trust me. There's times where I will. I've been against the Eagles plenty of times. Oh my goodness. Last night was nothing right. So as far as the forecast, hopefully today is the day that we get some rain, maybe measurable rain. I'm not so sure, but 70 degrees for your high cloudy and a rainy, dreary day ahead. Even some thunderstorms. And then tomorrow the sun comes out. We pop back up to 80 degrees for your Thursday, bright, sunny skies, mostly sunny. For Friday, we'll go back down to more normal weather for this time of year. So Friday, Saturday, Sunday, we're looking at mid 70s, mostly sunny skies and a beautiful sunny stretch as we look from tomorrow to from Thursday all the way to next Tuesday. A lot of bright sunshine today. Hopefully we get a little rain. We sure need it. We are sponsored by budget blinds this morning ready for fall.

Thank you for sponsoring our first edition this Wednesday morning killing company news live. Alright, Don. Thank you very much. 615. Let's get to a midweek big take on killing company. And it is brought to you by the Piazza Auto group. The big take make education great again largely I am against bands for the most part. I don't think they work. The public school system and the Department of Education is a hot mess though in many districts around the country. And as a taxpayer that funds these educators salaries, I have many issues with the current culture wars that are being waged in many of the locales across the country and certainly in our own listening area, Central Bucks West, Bucks County School District, just to name a few. But I also want to point out something that is happening on a bipartisan level that I agree with. And we'll look at one ban that has occurred in this country that I actually agree with as well as what's going on in schools that needs to be banned in light of what happened recently at a high school in North Carolina. But first the positive and I can't believe I'm saying this California Governor Gavin Newsom just banned or severely limited cell phone use yesterday by kids in public schools. According to the blaze, the new law goes into effect in July of 2026. The bill called AB 32 16 was approved by a bipartisan vote after being authored by Republican Assemblyman Josh Hoover. The bill states that schools must quote adopt a policy to limit or prohibit the use by its pupils of smartphones while the pupils are at a school site or while the pupils are under the supervision and control of an employee or employees of that school district County Office of Education or charter school and quote school districts must develop and adopt their new rules by July one twenty twenty six and update their policy every five years. We'll give you more of the details on this story coming up at six thirty. But this comes two months after Republican Governor Glenn Yunken of Virginia implemented the same policy in his state. On July 10th, Yunken issued an executive order to limit or ban cell phone use for roughly one point two million public school students in what he described as a response to mental health issues and academic underachievement amongst adolescents. I'm a big fan of Glenn Yunken. I actually think right now he's got a better chance of becoming the Republican nominee in twenty twenty eight for the president. If he wants it, then Ron DeSantis does or even JD Vance. Yunken also polls incredibly well with independence, pulling in a sixty six percent approval rating. But get the phones away from the kids, social media, selfies with cameras, the endless scrolling and swiping. It's turning our kids into mindless zombies, terrible social skills, lacking communication skills and living their life through the lens of a camera to document their existence and their every step and then post it on social media. I hate bands, as I said, but to me, this is the culmination of some bad parenting. Oh, and by the way, since you're at school, why don't we try learning something? I know it's a novel concept, but American children are dumber than ever and Donald Trump knows this. He says, we have to get rid of this rot in our education system. Here is Trump in Pennsylvania just recently talking about getting rid of the Department of Education. Listen and watch this. We spend more money for people than any other country by far, and yet we're at the bottom of the list at a forty, we're ranked about number forty. And I'm going to close the Department of Education and move education back to the states and we're going to do it fast. Maybe I'll have you do that. I'll use Lee. Maybe I'll have you. You could do it. That's not too easy. We'll get somebody great, we'll get Lee Zeldin is here with us tonight. I think that's a job for Lee. That's Lee Zeldin, of course, of New York who ran against Kathy Hochl. And the reality is this, when you look at the metrics, we're a joke in schools. Talk about a bad return on your investment. All that money pumped into the schools and we get squat in return, hence the push for school choice. And by the way, to teachers unions, they hate this, which has led to women like Randy Wine Garden and Becky Pringle to have TDS meltdowns in public speaking engagements, chanting and raving like a lunatic, listen and watch this. The NEA, by the way, for those who don't know, the National Education Association. So do you want your kid to end up with a mental health breakdown, like you just witnessed there for 26 seconds? Yeah, neither do I. I'm going to ride with Trump on this one. And they are melting down because they would lose control over the indoctrination. Did you know that Jimmy Carter created the Department of Education in 1979? At that time, our children in America were ranked number one globally in education 45 years later. We're closer to 40th on the planet below it up, but we need to add a second ban and it can't just be regional, even though destroying the Department of Education and bringing it back to the States would do just that. We have to end this absurd sexualization of minors in public schools. No seven year old, 10 year old, 12 year old, or even 15 year old should be taught the following. This story emanates from Raleigh, North Carolina, where a 15 year old girl claims that she was forced to read incest porn in her English class. Lorena Benson is a sophomore at Athens Drive High School. And the team claimed that her honors English class recently read a story detailing sexual encounters between two cousins that made her, quote, extremely uncomfortable. She delivered this message to the Wake County School Board this week. Listen and watch this. Three months ago, my family and I moved to North Carolina and have me enroll in the highly rated Athens Drive Magnet High School. I was very excited for this opportunity until last Friday, that is, on Friday the 13th, my English honors class, my teacher assigned the class to read a story independently and then come together into groups and discuss their story and answer some questions. There was a part in this story that made me feel very uncomfortable and I looked around and saw the same expression on other students' faces. We all had just read the following, it was not the summer you fell in love with your cousin Josie because that happened just a few summers before when you both wiggled into the tiny space behind grandma's garage and he tried to fit what you both called his banana into what you both called your tomato, but neither of you was sure which was the right home. Even after reading again, it makes me feel very uncomfortable. This graphic ancestral sexual language should not be taught in any class, much less an honors English class. That day I came back home from school, as per usual, I told my parents about my day and the things I did. I showed them that I was taught in my English class and they were as outraged as I was, listened, said and got me thinking. In my helpful living honors class, I am being taught about brain functions and development. I was taught that the teenage brains, like mine, are not fully developed yet and that we must be careful about why we engaged during these years. Based on this logic, I am a teenager, my brain is not fully developed and I should not have graphic and sexual sexual content taught to me in my classes. I am deeply bothered and disappointed. I have decided to leave Athens Drive High School because I should not have to deal with pornographic and sexual sexual content taught to me in my classes. Thank you. While Benson didn't name the specific book, the disturbing content she described, according to reports, appears to match the short story of tomorrow is too far by acclaimed Nigerian author, Chimamanda and Gozi Adiche. So are you okay with that as a parent, as a father or mother of a boy or a girl, specifically myself to 10 year old twin daughters? Are you on board with having them read about incest porn between cousins? I'm not and I'm not paying for it. And I would say, if you find out that you're paying for it, you should probably voice your displeasure about it and take action at a school board meeting. So I applaud Republicans and Democrats for taking kids phones away, protect their mental health, educate them, have them regain our country's top form academically, but I want the bands on pornographic material as well. If the children are the future of tomorrow, I would argue that there's a lot at stake and maybe it's time for parents to do a better job and for teachers to also do their job.

If you want to jump in, we'll also get to some 2024 election news, great signs for Donald Trump in Pennsylvania, North Carolina and one other pivotal state with the concept that most Republicans have been very hesitant to embrace the details coming up next here on Killing Company. Nick Donne and Greg back after this on talk radio 12 10 W.P.H.T. Trump saying quote, I say it all the time. I'm dying to get back in to do this. We will ultimately eliminate the federal Department of Education. That is a quote from Trump at his rally last month in August in Wisconsin. He says, quote, we will drain the government education swamp and stop the abuse of your taxpayer dollars to indoctrinate America's youth with all sorts of things that you don't want to have our youth hearing. And then just a little further context to what Gavin Newsom has put in place in California that will go into effect in the summer of 2026 before we get to that next school year, which does align with Republican Glenn young. And so we're seeing it East Coast, West Coast, Republican and Democrat Gavin Newsom in regards to the smartphone ban in public schools, saying these devices in a child's everyday life can contribute to lower test scores, anxiety, depression, and even suicide. Now there are limitations to the bill that allow exceptions or special circumstances under which a student may not be prohibited from having a smartphone. And then the Republican author of this bill that penned this before Gavin Newsom signed it says, we know that excessive smartphone use increases anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. But we have the power to intervene. Research continues to demonstrate the potential harms of smartphone use amongst children. The growing use of these devices in a child's everyday life for long hours on end can contribute to lower test scores, anxiety, depression, and even suicide. Don Stensland, I want to get your thoughts on this as a mama bear yourself. Number one, are you on board with the phone bands? Number two, what do you think about blowing up the Department of Education? And how the hell does some of this content slip through the cracks where we're having, you know, ninth grade, and tenth graders reading about incestual porn? I think first of all, number one, I'll go through because there are three separate things. Number one, I think, you know, for Gavin Newsom, for California, as far as that legislation. And across the country, schools are dealing with this. My son's high school, they've recently implemented some new policies where you're allowed to carry your cell phone, usually in a bag, and you're allowed to carry it, you're not allowed to have it out, you're not allowed to have it out, even when you're having lunch or anything of that nature. And this is not public. This is private, correct? This is a private school. Because they have, they're all these studies that have found, you know, all the things you just said, as far as the mental health situation, as far as kids even wearing, they'll wear their earbuds in class, and if they have longer hair, you can't see the butt. So they can be listening to whatever, streaming something, and not paying attention. But the problem, real problem is the social aspect of it, that there's bullying, and that's the bullying you cannot see online. So that's a piece of it. So a lot of the schools are trying to take this action. Legally, I don't know, legally, this will be challenged because I'm not sure that if you give your kid a cell phone, you know, I think that I'm not sure legally they can physically take it away from them. So you know, there's in a huge country like this, there's going to be a parent somewhere who pushes back. But most schools and most parents are just working together because we all recognize what's happening. So as far as that one goes, I think that we're all learning this together and realizing that something's going on with the health, you know, the mental health crisis in this country. So I think that's all good. And I think that, I actually think that students think it's good. And so that's a piece of it to get them on board. You on board with Trump blowing up the Department of Education? I mean, that's, he's saying something that's not, this is not new. This is something that we've talked about in our society for a long time. And I will tell you, friends of mine who are teachers in the teachers union have said that it's a problem. I don't know, I think it would be tough to get rid of the Department of Education. But I think that it's in many ways, the way to go at it is that it's a state's rights issue and make it more that in your state, you're allowed to run your education the way you want and to challenge it at a Supreme Court level because we have a state's right Supreme Court, maybe that's the pathway to go. Because I think that a lot of times, anytime you have a broad brush, a stroke, a broad brush, you know, approach to anything, but especially education, like one of my girlfriends in Florida, she was saying there are cultural differences. So even some of these tests that a kid takes, and if it's written by people on the East Coast, there are kids in the middle of the country that they're using terminology that they might not even understand. Absolutely correct. Yes, no doubt about it. And as far as the content goes, I think that much like you have in college, and most high schools are going toward this, but especially at the high school level, syllabus, you should yep, you should have a syllabus just like you have in college. And that way, the parents look at the reading material because there might be something in there quite frankly that violates somebody's, I don't know, they're religious, for religious reasons, for example. And so they just might not want their kids to see a certain book or see certain content. My only question with the last part of, you know, how does this content slip into the curriculum? Yeah, you can do a syllabus, but if you've ever been to college, you know, community college for your school, post grad, whatever, syllabus might be four or five pages, you've got the title of the book, when it's going to be read by, I mean, well, what are we going to do as parents? Like, this is where it's like the realistic aspect. I mean, it's not like as parents, we can just go into the school's library, all sit down together on the carpet and read every book in the library and find out, wow, in this book on page 38 in chapter two, there's a mention of incestual porn, like, I don't know what the vetting process is for the content and the material to, you know, if you're, and maybe if you're a teacher, you can explain this. I'm assuming you're a teacher, you have a certain structure you go with in your little department specifically, and you could probably tailor it to your own personal teaching style. But you know, how do, how does a certain book like that book that we just mentioned from that girl in Carolina get past, you know, a superintendent, a principal like Idens Council or the head of the department of English, whoever the top teacher is in the school that teaches honors English in 10th grade, like, I don't know that that's a realistic vetting process that we as parents can, you know, streamline, so to speak, to make sure that this doesn't happen, we just all have the, well not all of us, some of us, I guess are okay with, you know, a 15 year old reading incestual porn, but most, I think, common sense parents are like, well, wait a minute, but you even heard the girl reading there, you know, the brain isn't finished formulating until you're in your early to mid 20s. And we've talked about that on a variety of topics about the brain, especially with the transgender procedures that are going on in this country. You know, a lot of us think it's a mental health breakdown. Why would you want to chop off a body part at 12 when your brain doesn't finish formulating until you're 25. So I don't know what the solution is for parents other than two things. Be involved, obviously, go to school board meetings. And then if school choice and vouchers are an option and you have the resources to put them in a school where this won't occur, other than that, I don't know what else parents can do at this point on. I feel like our hands are tied. We've got two or three options and some of them might not be realistic for the working class. I think most people, most people trust the school and they don't even look at this. They don't even look at these books. They don't even look at the contents like for me with my kids, I always wanted to look at the books. And some of them in high school are incredible books that I end up reading myself, you know, as an adult as an adult and they're usually classics, that sort of thing. And even in, you know, you think of back in the day, catcher in the rye was at the time, back in the day, it was controversial. And I at the, because I lived in the south for a period of my life from 10 to 16, that book was banned from my school, catcher in the rye, because there's mention of a prostitute because of the language, the cursing and that sort of thing. So in this one, the book, I looked at the book that you talked about, it's pretty dark. It's a sister accidentally causes her brother's death. And then, I mean, it's like, oh my goodness, for a 15 year old, it's like a sophomore, you know, a sophomore in high school, it's a pretty, you know, sad, dark book. But yeah, the incest with a cousin, you know, I would, but, but I'll say this, for a senior in high school, what about that book for a senior in high school? Does that bother you 17, 18, 18, not as much. I do think there's certain ages for certain things. I, but there's also the public aspect of this as well, right, you know, public versus private age adult versus minor. I mean, you could divvy this up into many different categories and debate it back and forth. But grab Jen in Philadelphia. She's got a firsthand story to share. In your own talk, radio 12 10, Jen, you go right ahead. Good morning. Good morning. I, you both just said it very eloquently, what I wanted to say to your call screener. So I, I teach at a different district than I send my children. I do not want to reveal their school district because I really like their school district. Sure. But this really irritates. So my children going in the ninth grade, they had read a book. I trusted the school to make good choices because the book is a higher level reading book. My children are regular ed students, they're not honor students. They're not special ed. They, they are regular general ed students. They read the book that they were told to read for a nice, great summer reading going into the year. The honors students had a list of this book was required along with four or five other books. One child has read one of the other books. So I also had read one of the other books. I thought the book was an age appropriate, but as I'm talking to my children, and again, I'm talking to my children and we're discussing this book as they're reading it. There were some things that I think age appropriateness is important. And this book is about a young black man, transsexual female, and how something happens between them that changes the course of their life. I didn't have a problem with that part of the book, but my children in reading this book, they were like, "I feel uncomfortable around this," and we are around people of all different types of creed religious, and for my children to say, "They were uncomfortable," I got concerned. And I didn't read the book that I cruised some of the sections, and I just didn't think it was age appropriate for ninth grade. I think if it was 11th grade, absolutely, but when a child's doing it to ninth grade, they're bringing that young lady on that big take. She very eloquently spoke of how she felt uncomfortable and why she had to read that. My children can't speak that eloquently, but they could tell me how they felt uncomfortable. I did express it to the one of my children's teachers, and the response was, "I'm sorry you felt that way. I didn't choose the book. This is what we're told to offer, and if you have concerns to go to the school board." The teacher did acknowledge it was not their choice. Okay, so it comes from above. We get that. Thank you so much for the phone call, Jen. So that's where I go to a school board, and I say, "Explain to me the objective. What is the motivation? What are you trying to accomplish? What's the end goal here for having a 15-year-old read about ancestral porn?" And then I would just sit back and wait to hear how they explain it to you. And then if you understand it, then okay, if you disagree with it, then keep pushing the issue. But thank you very much for the phone call, Jen. Hey, go ahead, Don. I think part of it, I was thinking of heading away for whom the bell tolls. I mean, that's the kind of stuff we were reading in high school, and I'll never forget the scene with Maria and the pine needles. So part of it is when you're younger and you're reading these books, and there is this intimacy. You never forget it. It may be your first impression because you're reading it and there's something about reading something even as opposed to watching a movie or a video, you're reading it, you're taking that in. And so a piece of me believes that part of this, when we talk about indoctrination, why is it that schools will push different novels that I, like our caller just said, "I have no problem even a senior or a college level, no problem with any of these books. I love provocative material. I can take it all in." But why children? Why somebody eighth grade going into ninth grade? And so part of me is suspicious of that and feeling that they want a child, maybe one of their first in-depth experiences of really picturing and thinking about an intimate experience as something that's maybe a little alt, a little different, okay? And I think there's an agenda there. Well said, Jen, good work. You got your kids to read four or five books in the summer. I read no books in the summer as a kid. Look at red books all summer long. I mean, Stalker would just read all day long from like June, August. That's why he's the boss man. He never would go outside getting in trouble. Scuff his knee. Never. He's just reading books. Always reading books. He's coming his hair. 855, 839, 1210. We'll come back, wrap up with your calls. And then I got to get to the election news. We've got a lot of good stuff with Trump against Kamala Harris as well as further details on the plots and the assassination attempts against Donald Trump's life.

On in favor of abolishing the Department of Education, along with the teacher's unions, both have failed our children miserably, especially in the cities. I think we can set up a few states, maybe some sort of lottery, and have school choice and state-run education, see how that bears. We have to get our children out of the federal government, because that's what socialism is. They're teaching our kids the wrong thing. We need to be teaching our kids ABCs, one, two, three, the true history and science. Okay, we're falling behind every year. And math and reading as well. Yeah, but no, Lou, I'm with you, and I think a lot of it got exposed during the pandemic, and thank you so much for the call. You know, I do think most teachers do a good job, so it's not to sit here and say, I hate teachers or anything like that. I don't. I give them a lot of credit for what they put up with. I couldn't do what they do for a living, but I do think Florida is a great spot. I mean, you look at now, you know, DeSantis put too much of his cultural school in the culture wars and school stuff on his presidential plate, and I think that's one of the reasons why he was not successful in the primaries, but at a state level, he's great at that. And I think Florida is a prime example. And if you look at any of these states where they've implemented these, you know, school choice and voucher programs, and of course, if you have parents that are able to capitalize on that and utilize it and have those resources, I think there is samples out there that show that it works. And I know, and Don, you've talked about this a lot on your show specifically as well at the grassroots level here in Pennsylvania. Yeah, I, as far as the teachers union quickly, I'll say in Pennsylvania because of that Supreme Court ruling that happened in 2018, public employees can no longer be required or forced to financially support a labor union against their will. So here in Pennsylvania, teachers do not have to belong to the union. Yeah. And, and that's a lot of people don't realize that you can opt out and legally in the nation, you do not, you cannot be forced to, um, you can opt out of the union membership and stop, you can stop paying the dues. And that will trigger Randy Winegarden, really pisses me off. Does piss her off eight, five, five, eight, three, nine, 12, 10, Don's got news to kick off the second hour and then early mail in voting data in three key states shows great news for Donald Trump back after this.
