(upbeat music) - Cale and company weekday morning, six till 10. - Philadelphia's Taconi section happened on the 6,500 block of Dittman Street, happened yesterday, mid-morning. He was taken to Jefferson-Tarsdale Hospital. We have a weapon recovered, no arrests have been made, and the investigation is active and ongoing. Anybody with information is urged to call Philadelphia police. Pretty much every day I have a report like this one where somebody's shot. Now, this man's in critical condition, but oftentimes, that's the most we hear about it. We don't have motive, we don't have a suspect. - At least we have a weapon this time. - We don't have a arrest, but we do have a weapon this time. - There we go. All right, well, that's a step in the right direction. - Look, you should be in positive. - Shot in the head. - My gosh. That's a great way to get your day started. What happened to you? I got shot in the head. - Geez. - Geez. - So we have a woman, we have an update for you as we talked yesterday about this horrible story where Bella Kenwood and remember City Ave was shut down most of the day yesterday during that investigation after a woman had died after she was struck by a vehicle. This was a hit and run right there on City Ave in Bella Kenwood. So we had a lot of road closures in that area. She was a woman on a wheelchair, struck early in the morning, she was leading the Taco Bell right there near Kanjahak and State Road. So they're still not releasing her identity, her name, simply saying that she's a woman in her early 60s and they're not releasing her identity, but they have released some new images of the driver of that vehicle who's believed the one to have struck her. And so they're releasing some, I mean, there's still kind of foggy images, if you will, of the driver of that SUV asking that person just to turn themselves in. They say the person actually pulled over at some point and cause they can track, you know, all the different surveillance cameras. At some point, they say that the look sure looked like the person pulled over and was inspecting their vehicle. - And just to clarify, because I'm trying to visualize this, it's a Taco Bell, it's a person in a wheelchair and it's an SUV, the person, the handicapped individual with the wheelchair, they didn't go through the drive-through in the wheelchair, did they? - That's my knowledge. - Okay, I'm just, because I'm trying to visualize this and it's just like, I don't know how you hit somebody that's in a wheelchair and I take a chalupa, please. I'm just making sure, I mean, it wouldn't surprise me, honestly, in this city, there's crazier things that happen. I'm not trying to make it out of it, but I mean, look, back in my day. - Yeah, there had been nothing, there had been nothing. There had been nothing, that would have stopped me from going to Taco Bell, so, you know. - I mean, because let's be real, it's hard to get into a Taco Bell in a wheelchair, right? Unless they all have handicapped ramps and things like that, it's trying to put a visual to the madness in this town. - I think the person already had the food. - Okay, I've just seen how he'd go through the drive-through and you're scooter, or some guy hurt and hurry and get back home. - It wouldn't, you know, it could have went through him already, he's got to make a bathroom break, it's the boom. - It's not good cold. - Yeah, I'm sorry, Don, it'd be totally de-really. - It's the sin. - But there, in other news, we have strong winds complicating the wildfire that has burned some 5,000 acres. This is right along basically the New Jersey, New York border, but five to 3,000 to 5,000 acres, that's what they're dealing with. And then another fire in Pompton Lakes finally contained after firefighters battled that one, that one we talked yesterday over the weekend, but this newer one, this is only 10% contained. Part of the problem here is because of the high winds that we've seen and we'll see that today. And just record dry conditions. - Yeah, we just, that little spritzing that we had for a brief period on Sunday was just not nearly enough. We need like a steady two days of not saying downpours, but just steady solid rain. - So in that one tragedy, these are dangerous fires to fight. We know that an 18 year old volunteer firefighter had died while battling that Jennings Creek fire. And now that has spread around the Greenwood Lake area and that's into Orange County, New York. So spreading from Jersey into New York. So it's already turned tragic. The concern here in Pennsylvania, as well as in New Jersey, 'cause we have had some Pennsylvania fires, but they are just putting out the word, you know, absolutely don't even light a candle outside. It's just, it's so dry out, tinder dry conditions and then fueled by these winds. - My buddy, my buddy Harry was golfing yesterday. He said it's so dry at his golf course that the fairways are like hitting off of plywood boards. - Oh my goodness. - I mean, the club just bounces ricochets right off. I mean, it's like playing golf in a parking lot. - Jeez. - Yeah. - Just the dust, the ball hits, the dust, you know? - Yep. - So I'll take it at Bucks County where police in Bucks County, urging residents to get ring cameras or some kind of a camera system. After multiple package thefts have been reported, it's in and around the area of Lower Makefield Township, and so they've got a lot of them. - Porch pirates. - Porch pirates, yeah. - But I like that, yeah. - Porch pirates, yep. - So in some of them, the video is always what they ask you. Do you have a, do you have some kind of a surveillance? Do you have some video? Because that can possibly help them track the, they're coming out in broad daylight. - Mm-hmm, yeah, of course. - Yeah, I think we're gonna have to get one of those in next summer when we get our permanent home. I'm, I don't know, what, you guys both have one? - Yes. - What are they? Yeah, so you pay what? Just an upfront installation and for the product, and then do you pay a monthly subscription to use it as well? - Yes. - Don't wanna know. Oh, she does know. - I was gonna say, don't do it now. - Greg, I do all that. - I know you do. - I know you do. - Anything a lot of bears there? You're handling the checkbook? - I have all the backup, all the Eero. - One's got the apps, the passwords. - He is. - That's right. - That's true. He finally has an excuse. - Just teasing honey. Yeah, but it's, we actually did not have one until, I don't know, it was actually one of these situations and was years back where they were, they came up and this was out, I think it was right coming out of the pandemic. They come up, or maybe it was during the pandemic, they wear a hat. They know what to do. - Oh yeah, they're totally trained. - Absolutely. - They know what to look for. And so they tip their hat, they come up, they look, if they see cameras, then they just turn their head around, turn the other way. But they're smart. They will wear the coordinating colors to look like they're Amazon or an official UPS. That's where they'll wear the bright red, the brown. - Yep. - You know, so they will try to look, they'll have a clipboard. So, and this is the same M.O. that we're seeing. This is Lower Makefield Township, but I would say no matter where you are, I told you yesterday, I have a niece and her husband and their little kids while they were home. - Yeah, we got to start to break in. - Start telling Amazon if you can. I don't know if you do it online or whatever, and you can leave like a message to like, with the instruction scene. - Take it around the back and toss it over the fence into the yard or something to see how. So it's just not sitting there for everybody's taking. - Well, that's why now they take a photo of it. - Okay. - Because they were, oh, I didn't get my package. Well, here's the photo. We delivered it, not our problem. - Yep. - Verizon customer is complaining about this widespread internet outage across the Philadelphia region, and it looks like a lot of the mid-Atlantic region down to DC. So at least 10,000 people reported a problem in our area in the Philadelphia region alone, and it first started coming in between midnight and about 3.45 AM-ish. - Good boy. - So, affecting your service, or if you have somebody in your family who relies, let's say they have Type 1 diabetes, and they rely on a device that they wear such as a pump, guess what? That affects that too. All the alarms start ringing at two in the morning. - Is there anything more triggering as Americans at where we're at now in 2024 than when our internet or our cell phone doesn't work? Like, you just-- - What did we do without it? - Yeah, like, you know, in the summer when the power goes out because of a big storm and all of a sudden, you gotta sit around in your house for two hours with your family and you can't scroll your phone, and you like, lose your mind. - It's a speed-break experience. - Yeah, yeah, first-hand experience. - Absolutely. - Like, I talk to you. (laughing) - Listen, I'm so excited. - I know that we're gonna talk about all these appointments, and Stephen Miller was, you know, they're Senator Marco Rubio. There's so many different appointments going on. - A little Marco. - It is a little Marco. (laughing) - It's unbelievable. - I do, I love the story of, 'cause Trump goes to the White House tomorrow, but I did have to say, I love the story of Melania Trump declining the offer to go to the White House tomorrow to meet with First Lady Jill Biden. - Quote, scheduling conflict. - Scheduling conflict, but the source familiar with Melania said, and this is the New York Post, of course, Jill Biden's husband authorized the FBI snooping through Melania's underwear drawer. - Ah-ha. - The Bidens are disgusting. - My wife's a fella girl. (laughing) So Melania said, no, I'm good. - Right. - Good guy. - You stay away from my skivvies, man. - Right. So she's, she is, she's won, this tells you something about her personality. She smiles, but she gets, she doesn't forget. - Don't be treading on my personal stuff. - Yeah, so. By the way, Sixters, this evening, a lot of excitement, Joe L.M. Bead expected to play tonight against the Knicks. (laughing) - Is that a kid, does he definitely want to, if he's not ready yet, and he doesn't want to, he'll take some more time off, pal. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Paul George, the same thing. The rest of them maxies out. - Maxies out, yeah, I was gonna say. - What are they, like, two and eight or something like that, I saw? - Yeah. - Fliers beat the sharks for three, and I should mention septa negotiations still continue across your fingers. - Well, they're doing the, they're gonna have another meeting about the, about the Sixters Stadium. - That's in City Hall, so we're expecting some protests. - Yeah, well, they keep winning two out of every nine games. They can play the Lea course, so they'll feel like they're-- (laughing) - You have to earn it, is that it? - Yeah, I'm just gonna say. (laughing) - Maybe you can play it with Sal. There's some West Philadelphia street courts that might be better for you. - Yeah, go play on the Macadam. My old man would say. - I love it, in other words, even if we build you this beautiful new stadium, if you're a loser, yeah, you can play out in the street. - Exactly. - Under the I-95, like, underpass there. - No matter where you build it, we're not gonna come if you don't win that. (laughing) - So today, much cooler, still very windy, 56 degrees. It'll never feel like 56 due to that wind whipping. Tomorrow, just 53 degrees, so watch these overnight lows the next couple of days. You wanna bring in or cover your tender vegetation tonight or tomorrow, 'cause we're in the low to mid 50s. Thursday, mostly cloudy. So Tuesday, Wednesday, we're looking at Sunshine. Thursday is that one mostly cloudy day. I don't see precipitation, though, even though it's cloudy, 52 degrees. I know. There's no measurable precipitation in the 10 day forecast. - Unreal. I covered my tender vegetation last night. The wife had the window and the fan going last night. Like, are you mad? (laughing) And you insane? - Get a window open. - Window open and the ceiling fan going. - Oh my goodness. - Like, no. I mean, I'm not wearing a sweat suit to bed. I like to sleep in the chili, but not that chili. - Yeah. - It's cold. - This was like the equivalent of the air conditioning in your house being dropped to 62. - Oof. - You know, icicles hanging out your nose. - The weekend looks nice, though. We're looking at lower 60s, sunny temperatures, and looking into next week. I mean, here we are, mid November, and we're still next week in the mid 60s. - It was going out yesterday for like a walk/run. - It was beautiful. - 70 degrees in sunshine. Beautiful. - It was quality. - Yeah, quality stuff. We're either going to have a really mild and short winter, or we're going to get one of those snow storms in March and April, and we won't see spring until Memorial Day. (laughing) - Well, let's hope for snow, for sure. Remember, Thursday, photo of the eagles. - Eagles! - Yeah, so there is a slight chance for, that's not here anyway, but Thursday, slight, slight chance for a sprinkle of one of the weather models. I'm actually just searching to try to find it. - No, it is here. It is here. - Oh, yeah. - Do you see it? - Yeah. - No, no, the eagles. They play in Philadelphia. - Oh, it is. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - So, that's Killing Company News Live. - All right, Don, thank you very much. 619, let's get to a Tuesday, big take. - The big take on Killing Company. - All right, the big take this morning. America's big, bad, bold border boss. You know, if you're a part of the Biden-Harris administration and you're down to about 68 or 69 days, you have culpability in America's border crisis over the last four years and all of your embarrassing work is about to be erased. And if you came into this country illegally, you are about to have your free ride come to an end because there's a new but familiar sheriff about ready to return to town and his name is Donald Trump. Trump will be considered the architect of restoring a secure border for the United States, but it's Tom Holman, who is the face of our country's restored law and order of immigration. And he isn't playing games. Under Joe Biden, as of June, 2024, there were 12 million, 95,804 illegal aliens that came into our nation. And that's just the official number. And that was four months ago. It could be 13, 14, maybe even closer to 15 million in all reality. Under Barack Obama, significantly better, five and a half million. And under Donald Trump, even lower, how about 5.3 million? And if Trump and Holman have their way now having not only the Senate and the House, as well as the Supreme Court, which is total control, it could be under 5 million by the time 2028 comes and goes. Tom Holman has been tabbed as Trump's new borders are, and he is the former director of ICE. He joined Fox and Friends Monday morning, talking about his career comeback under Trump 2.0. Listen and watch. - Yeah. I've been on this network for years complaining about what the administration did to this border. I've been yelling the screen about it, telling what they need to do to fix it. So when the president asked me to come back and fix it, of course that, that'd be a hit for me, I didn't. So look, I'm honored to press and ask me to come back and help solve this national security crisis. So I'm looking forward to it, but I love Fox. I love the family there, but I think the calling is clear. I gotta go back and help because every morning I get up, every morning I'm pissed off and what was this administration did for most secure board in my lifetime. So I'm going to go back and do what I can to fix it. - So, Holman went on to say, quote, if they're not willing to help, then get the hell out of the way, because ICE is going to do their job, end quote. That message aimed clearly in the direction of Democratic governors who attempt to oppose Trump's mass deportation operation. But what is the process like? How serious is the crisis at the Southern border? Holman explained and made a comparison in further detail. Listen and watch this. - I know exactly what I'm doing. Look, this is the second time I get out of retirement for this president and because it matters. And look, I'm was a board of children. I wore that uniform and I'm proud that I wore that uniform. So, and I was a ICE agent. I was the first ICE director. I actually came up to the ranks. So the 20,000 men and women that worked for me, I didn't ask them to do anything. I didn't do myself. I was one of them. So look, I know the border and I know there's library of patrons. Look, I shut my phone off Friday night because I couldn't handle the phone calls of Texas and emails from thousands of ICE agents and board of children just excited about the rumor I'm coming back. But more importantly that thousands of retired agents, retired board of children, retired military that wanna come in and volunteer to help this president secure the border and do the deportation operation. So I've been off the grid for three days, because I couldn't handle all the phone calls and plus all the death threats rolling in. My family's not home right now because that's starting. But you know, that's something we're gonna deal with. They're not gonna bully me away. They're not gonna shut me up and not gonna make me go away. This is the biggest national security vulnerability this nation has seen since 9/11. We have to fix it. And it's when, think about that. He compared what is going on at the border to 9/11. And that's nothing to joke about. And I don't think for a second that Tom Holman is kidding. Remember, this isn't just about South American nations. Our border has been flooded by terrorists from the Middle East, young men from other nations, including many from China and other Asian nations. Not only knows how many people with sinister intentions are in this country right now, illegally. And this goes beyond crimes against property or crimes against women. This includes potentially terror plots, mass casualties, and people from Iran who could be targeting President Donald Trump. But the ladies from the view, well, if you were searching for the new boogeyman on the left, they found him. Here's Ana Navarro banging the drum for. This is wrong with Tom Holman. Listen and watch this. - It's chilling what he just said. You realize that when he says yes, families can be deported together. What he is saying is that U.S. citizens can be deported. What he is saying is if the parent is undocumented and they have U.S. citizen children or U.S. citizen spousers here and you don't want to separate them, then let's deport the U.S. citizens. Look, Donald Trump won the electoral vote. He won, he's going to win the House. He won the Senate. For all effects and purposes, he's got the Supreme Court. They've given him immunity. This is what the country voted for. This is, you know, a lot of people thought that when he talked about mass deportations, he wasn't being serious. I don't know how many times he had to say it for people to realize he was being serious. Well, if you thought he wasn't being serious, the appointment of Tom Holman today as borders are and he will be in charge of a mass deportation program, the largest the country has ever seen, they say. And now Stephen Miller, as Deputy Chief of Staff, should let you know that he was absolutely serious. And when you talk about mass deportations, people think, oh, it's just going to be the criminals. There's not enough criminals, aliens in the federal prison system for it to be mass deportations. What it means is grandmothers. What it means is brothers and aunts. What it means is abuelos, y abuelas. It means dreamers. It means your family members. It means your colleagues. It means your friends. It means people who are part of the society. And look, America, those of you who voted for Trump. This is what you wanted. This is what you voted for. You screwed around and you're about to find out. - Those criminals and the past administration after round, and now they're about to find out. Get it right, Ana. Trump posted on Truth Social some further details of Tom Hogan's Tom Holman's job duties, which will include the following, the Northern border, all maritime, and aviation security. Holman did go on to say that this operation will target, quote, the worst, first, prioritizing what he called criminal threats and national security threats. Holman's first stint with Trump lasted a year and a half as he was in charge from January 2017 through June of 2018 as part of Trump's, quote, zero tolerance policy. And with Tom Holman in place, the Trump administration is beginning to fall into place. Susan Wiles will be Trump's chief of staff. Tom Holman will be Trump's border czar. Mike Waltz, national security advisor, Elise Stefanik, UN ambassador, Lee Zeldin, EPA administrator, and Marco Rubio, secretary of state. Ruled out, Nikki Haley, Mike Pompeo, still in the mix, Cash Patel, Vivek Ramaswami, and possibly Rick Scott, Senate majority leader. We're also still waiting to see who will be tabbed attorney general. And of course, with Elise Stefanik, we know from New York, she was just named the ambassador of the UN, if you recall, she was the one who grilled the president of Harvard University during the anti-Semitic riots on the campus of the Ivy League institution that ultimately led to Claudine Gay's resignation from that role. We'll give you all of the odds on all these individuals likely to be a part of the Trump administration coming up later today. But one man who hopes to be a part of it is, in fact, Florida's Rick Scott. He's vying for Senate majority leader. He's expected to get it, and is likely the odds on favorite. He joined Fox News yesterday to make his case. Listen and watch this. - Here's what I bring to the table. I clearly believe in the Trump agenda, number one. I'm a business guy that has success doing exactly what we need to do in the Senate. We need to have a plan. We need to work a plan. We need to have a team. We need to measure ourselves. If we want to get all the nominees done, we've got to figure out a plan to get it done. If we want to get a balanced budget, we've got to start today to get a balanced budget. If we want to get the border secure, if we want to get whatever policies we have to get through Congress, we have to have a plan, just like what you do in business. I ran a company with 285,000 employees. We had a written plan for everything to get it done. My colleagues have told me they want change, they want to be treated as equal, they want to be part of its team, they want to have an agenda, they want to have a great relationship with the House, they know I have a great relationship with Speaker Mike Johnson. So I'm very optimistic that I'm going to win because I'm representing Trump's agenda and what my colleagues want. - Another guy who is not a swamp insider, former business guy, a guy who tolerates no crap, and somebody who many believe Trump can trust because they're on the same page across the board with all policies. You know, we could call this the second Trump term. We can call it Trump's comeback, but what it looks to be based on the early selections of his administration and cabinet is best described as no nonsense, eff around and find out. That's the type of administration Trump is putting together in his second go around and we need that. We need that desperately. And with Trump having all the power now, after the House officially broke for Republicans and they retained control, you have the House, you have the Senate and a majority on the Supreme Court. Any monkey business is ill advised. And that's the big take. - Look, big take on killing company. - All right, big take this morning. If you want to jump in, 855-839-1210 on social media at 1210-W-P-H-T. And of course, in the YouTube chat, you can let it rip. We'll go through some of Trump's selections from his administration yesterday, including one that was confirmed late overnight last night into the early hours of this morning. And we'll do that on the other side. It's Kalan Company rolling here on a Tuesday morning, Nick Don and Greg on Talk Radio 1210-W-P-H-T. - When it comes to your home, trust is everything.

(upbeat music) - This is the Kaling Company podcast from Talk Radio 1210-W-P-H-T and on the free Odyssey app. Fox News is Bill Mulusion who tweeted yesterday after the Tom Homan announcement became official. He reached out to all of his sources with ICE as well as the Border Patrol Agent stationed in California, Arizona and Texas. He got some great responses back to the temperature being engaged and the night and day change. I just wanted to read a couple of these in a follow-up to the big take on the border. One ICE officer responding to Bill Mulusion, quote, "It's a total 180, troops are finally seeing the sun coming out after a very long storm. People are fired up to have support. It's amazing because we all became so numb. I don't think we realized how bad until we finally have hope again. Everybody's so happy about Homan's return." Another ICE official saying, quote, "I feel that people know now they will get to go to do the work they signed up to do and that they want to do. They know they can get the bad guys now. Public safety threats, national security threats, gang members, here we come." Another ICE officer saying morale, super high, especially with the Homan news too. An Arizona Border Patrol agent saying ecstatic, "Get to go to work. Morale is even higher than the first time that he won." And a California Border Patrol agent saying, "We've all been hopeful, but the give-ups are still trickling in. Nothing will change until Tom Homan takes the leash off of us." So I think there's a lot of optimism. I think there's a lot of sense of, "Hey, this nightmare of the last three plus years of this stampede, so to speak." And remember, we were told countless times that it was families and women and children, and certainly you see that. But man, I don't know how many times we saw footage of men, I would guess, 18 to 35, maybe even a little bit older into their 40s, certainly some guys in their 50s where you're like, "Man, these look like military age men in great shape, right?" And they didn't look like they were starving. They didn't look like they were deprived and depraved. And we've seen, and Dawn, you've mentioned it in your newscast, countless times, where there have been people that have gotten through this southern border, and they weren't just coming here to seek asylum, right? They had an agenda. And thankfully, some of these agents were able to snuff some of them out, whether it's the FBI or any other federal agency, because you got a bull's eye on Americans, and you got a bull's eye on Trump's back, right? We talked about the thwart of the temps with Iran. So it's not just people from Guatemala or Ecuador coming here to seek a better life. The whole world knew that this thing was open, and if you wanted to get in and cause a problem in this country, now is the time to do it. And I think now the time to do it is coming to a close. - Yeah, unfortunately, I think that it will take, I don't know, years to just flush out all the, just the individuals who came here either because they're in gangs, cartels, the human trafficking, which we were told, remember, that doesn't really exist. It's kind of a myth that it was being supersized by certain media, all of that. So I think, unfortunately, this is just the beginning, but the awareness factor, that's the important piece of it that we are aware. - Yep, no question. And with Tom Holman, and I mentioned I rattled this off, that we can go through these here for a couple of minutes, because I like a majority of what Trump has done so far. I'm not gonna sit here and pretend like I know all of these people on a extremely intimate basis or I can recite their Wikipedia pages verbatim. Can't do that with some of them. Certainly we're familiar with others. Susan Wiles, this started last week, chief of staff, first female chief of staff. Yesterday we find out Mike Waltz from Florida. He will be in charge of the NSA National Security Advisor. At least Stefanik, we know her well from New York. She will be the UN ambassador. She is the one who grilled all the Ivy League professors at Penn, at Harvard, over the anti-Semitism. She's a pistol, I like her. We mentioned Tom Holman, borders are Lee Zelden. Sean Farish really likes him. Sean Farish has campaigned, not campaigned with him, but done some grassroots stuff with him. Lee Zelden is a New Yorker, gave Kathy Hochl a run for her money for governor. He will be the EPA administrator. We are still waiting on the attorney general. Still waiting, obviously, on Senate majority leader. It looks like, according to the Poly market, Rick Scott is the odds-on favorite at 52%. John Thune at 40%. John Cornyn at 6%. So I think a lot of Trump hardcore supporters want Rick Scott. That's why I played him for you in the big take. Ohio governor Mike DeWine saying that he could see Vivek Ramaswami filling the Senate seat that has been vacated by JD Vance. I think in one way, shape, or form, Vivek will have a role moving forward. And then probably the two most notable names that I think the audience knows happened late last night and into the early hours of the morning, Marco Rubio as secretary of state. We remember him in 2016, and he's been kissing Trump's keister for about six to eight years ever since. Trump's his daddy. I think we've established that. - Stop. - And Kristi Nohm. - Yeah. - Only security security. - Yeah, how 'bout that? You know? - No dogs were harmed. - And they're killing the dogs. - Yeah, she's gonna be in charge of the SPCA. No, I'm just kidding. But she'll be the Department of Homeland Security. - Yeah. - Honestly, God, I don't dislike any of these picks other than Marco Rubio. And I get it, you can change. You can hit me back and counter with, well, you know, JD Vance was not a Trump guy, and then he came around to valid, valid point. I just, when I hear JD Vance swampy, no, I think there's more to trust about Vance than Rubio. Rubio gives off this squirmish, squeamish. Like, I wanna be accepted by the New York Times. I hope I'm in favorable graces with mainstream media. I don't trust Marco Rubio. I trust Vance, and I think Vance has, we've all agreed, he's been pretty spectacular in his presentation since being selected as VP. The interviews he's done, the ways he's conducted himself, the whole bit, but I don't like Rubio a bit. But you know what? You're not gonna get everything you want, right? Is there anything that you liked on anything that they don't like about the names, whether it's Gnome, Rubio, Zeldin, Stefanic, anything that stands out one way or the other? - No, I'm just, I'm glad they're getting it done, and they'll go through the proceedings. I mean, no, I just, you know, they have a lot of work to do. It's like less politics and the less nonsense, just get people in and get to work. - It's something like 10,000 appointments he has to make. I mean, he doesn't do it personally, like he does the big ones, but. - But like 10,000, that's a, you have to really staff, you know what I mean? And it's a, you know, these are all important jobs, obviously, so. - Right, they're not doing like a victory lap behind closed doors for the next 70 days. - Had to get right to work. - No. - And that's the, I would say the difference between now and 2016, that, you know, Trump has done this before. He had never been elected to any office. He was a newbie, and so had to learn some ropes. And so this time around, obviously getting right to work, and he knows the pitfalls, he knows, you know, how important these key positions are. You mentioned the EPA. Think about frack, frack, frack. You need somebody who in the EPA can make sure that everything's legal, but also we've heard about these restrictions that just put a stranglehold on certain industries. And then my question is, what does that mean for the state level? 'Cause here in Pennsylvania, we also have the, at the state level EPA rules. So how will they grapple with that? - Yeah. - Speaking of Pennsylvania, has the McCormick case erase been caught? - No. - Been called yet? - No. - The commissioner, so what's happening is they have like 600 votes that are those provisionals. - Sure. - So they're insisting on counting every last one. They're contacting people because, you know, if you go through a provisional, maybe your signature doesn't matter. So they're literally calling people. They put out a number yesterday. You can call two, one, like put it just, you don't even, you can go to our voicemail and just confirm it's you. It's like why McCormick is up by 40,000 votes. This is not going to change. And it's just, and I think Z, I just retweeted Zioli, was, I think Zioli had interviewed McCormick and broke some news where they were saying last night that reportedly Shapiro is not happy with this whole thing that Casey should concede. - So is Casey an election denier? Is he undermining democracy? I'm just wondering because I mean, I know nobody has stormed the state Capitol here in Pennsylvania or anything like that. But, you know, when you get beat, it feels to me, this is a lot like Stacey Abrams. This is a lot like Hillary Clinton. This is a lot like any other Republican as well. I mean, we, for some reason in this country now, we just have this, like, we feel it's like our God given right just to contest every time we lose. It's like, no Bob Casey, you've been around for the longest time possible, right? 18 years, your father, the whole family I mentioned yesterday, since 1987, you've stolen enough money, get out, you lost, go. It's over. - I'm not an expert on these procedures. So I know that they said that McCormick couldn't go tomorrow to the little, like, kindergarten orientation day or whatever. - Yeah. - But I just think, these are all-- - Where we meet your parents. - Yes, it's like-- - But here's where you have lunch. - Put your name tags on, there's a library. - So it's good that he put out there, no, he's gonna go. - Yeah. - And you don't have to be invited, just go. I mean, that's what I would say. They have all their little protocols or whatever, but I think McCormick is good to go. In the past, Republicans have done this to Democrats. - Mm-hmm, yeah, no, they've done this stuff. - Yeah, goes both ways, I guess. 855-839-1210. What are the odds of Bobby Kennedy, Tulsi Gabbard, Elon Musk, the new brigade, the chances that they will land a spot in a Trump administration? We'll give you that as we wrap up the six o'clock hour, and that's coming up next here on "Caling Company." - Your privacy and safety, I talk about it every day in the news, it's so important, and it's important to me. And as somebody who's, you know, a public person, whether on the airwaves, whether it was in a TV news, whether it's broadcasting here at "Talk Radio 1210," W.P.H.T., the creepiest thing ever is when, and I'll say this, especially for a woman, you look up your name and you realize one of those creepy invasive sites has taken your information or your likeness or your name, and then they're using it to sell it, or they're using it for another nefarious purpose. It's just the, you feel so invaded when that happens, and that's why I really appreciate the new subscription "Privacy Pro" by DuckDuckGo. So as you know, I've used DuckDuckGo for years now. If you want to keep your searches private, how many times have I told you and out of those data profiles or the government or legal requests, that sort of thing, you need to use DuckDuckGo. But I really love this "Privacy Pro" subscription service, and just in the first month of using it, I really, I love it. I love the alerts that I get. They tell me exactly how many things they've been able to block, and so to me, this is important, and it's important to think about. We talked earlier this morning about technology, helping you to keep yourself safe, and this is just one more firewall, if you will, in the world of thinking about safety and privacy. So for DuckDuckGo's "Privacy Pro," this is really a three-in-one privacy subscription service. It helps protect your personal information from being exploited by those hackers, those privacy-invasive companies. Plus, like I say, it's from DuckDuckGo, so I already know it, I've been using DuckDuckGo, and this is a whole new layer to keep me secure. DuckDuckGo's VPN secures your Wi-Fi connection anytime, anywhere, and they have identity theft, restoration, if your identity gets stolen, DuckDuckGo Privacy Pro is gonna help you to restore that. And so that's pretty amazing. The personal information removal on desktop devices, that's Mac or Windows, wherever you use, and so that's important to me. And I would suggest you do this. Search your name online. You're gonna be shocked at how many sites you go to, and go in there and do this search for yourself, and see what I'm talking about. This is a real thing. So get all of this security with Privacy Pro, like I say, a three-in-one subscription. You get all of that for $9.99 a month. As my listener, if you go to DuckDuckGo.com/1210, you're gonna get an exclusive seven-day free trial on me. That's DuckDuckGo.com/1210. DuckDuckGo/1210. So it's DuckDuckGo.com/1210. - It's Kale & Company, on demand, from talk radio 1210 WPHD, and the free Odyssey app. - So it's interesting, because you've got a couple of people still looking to latch on to the Trump administration. Polymarket posted all sorts of odds yesterday on individuals and their likelihood of getting a spot in the Second Trump administration. RFK Jr. leading the way at 92%. I think Bobby Kennedy said something to the effect over the weekend, over social media that, or actually though, this was across the pond in another country, where he said, "As soon as Trump gets into office, "they are going to get rid of up to, I believe, "600 employees from the NIH." Which I think a lot of us, we've talked about, whether it's big pharma, big food, medicating people, all the pesticides and preservatives. He was going on his tangent about how we're poisoning and killing our kids. And I think a lot of us are very much against big pharma. So I think Bobby Kennedy is going to have a spot. Vivek Ramaswami, 87% chance. Tulsi Gabbard, 91% chance. And Elon Musk, a 69% chance. So I also expect people are to give pushback of, well, why are you against Marco Rubio, but you're not against Elon Musk, Bobby Kennedy, and Tulsi Gabbard, former Democrats. That's also a fair and valid point. Again, you don't have to love everybody that Trump surrounds himself with, but don't, I think he's going to absolutely find a spot for Kennedy and Gabbard. I think Elon Musk might just kind of be like a off the record advisory role, which I'm totally fine with, as long as Elon Musk has Trump's ear, and apparently he's got like the key code to Mar-a-Lago, stories and reports that Elon Musk has been at Mar-a-Lago every day for like the last two weeks. I think Elon Musk will be a big factor in this as well. - Yeah, I just wonder, I mean, Elon Musk runs a couple of companies, he's a pretty big guy, you know, pretty busy guy. So I don't know if he'll really serve at a cabinet level. He doesn't need the money, he's not like he needs a government salary. - No. - As far as Tulsi Gabbard, I mean, she's, right now her job is, she is the Trump transition team, the co-chair of the transition team. So she has that job. So I don't know how it works, as far as what role that she'll play, because right now she's helping pick some of these very appointments that we're talking about. Then they go through the confirmation process. I know Trump wants to bypass whatever he can to get this done and fill these 4,000 jobs ASAP. - Yep. - But it's fascinating to watch and I think we're gonna see this happening in Warp Speed. I think they just wanna get to work. - Yep, and it's gonna look a lot different than the first time around for sure, because he knows the lay of the land much better. 855-839-1210, Donald have some news to kick off our number two, and then a eulogy to the woke era of identity politics. Not just from me, it's from the New York Times, it's from Morning Joe, and much more including James Carville, we'll get to that as we continue.
