Dirty 3: Gov. Whitmer Comments on President Biden's Campaign
- This is the Mojo in the Morning podcast, powered by Michigan Auto Law, Auto Accident Attorneys. Visit autolaw.com. - That's autolaw.com. - Mojo in the morning's dirty on the 30. - All right, what's trending in this dirty, Shannon? - So, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer talking to George Stephanopoulos moments ago on Good Morning America. We were doing the topics. I could have pulled all the audio, but I did pull this clip from you or for you, excuse me, and it is Governor Whitmer talking about President Joe Biden. - He has my full support. I'm a co-chair for the Biden-Harris campaign. I have great confidence in this president. He's got receipts. He's delivered for the American people, and I'm glad that he's ready to continue this fight. - What do you say to your fellow Democrats like Senator Patty Murray, John Tester, who say he still has to prove his fitness answer questions? - I respect the conversation that's happening, and certainly I think what we've seen from the president is an eagerness to get out and about. He's gonna be in Michigan later this week. He's getting all across the country. I think he's shown that he's got the energy and he's ready to take this off. - Now, next hour, she responds to the rumors that maybe she could step in as a replacement should President Biden choose to step down from the race. - Now, question for you. 'Cause I think that Michigan's governor is term limited, right? So, she only has this current term, and then she will have to figure something else out, you know? Isn't that a natural progression for her to, you know, possibly run for presidency or possibly run for another higher office, I don't know. - Do you should be, like, appointing to a cabinet or not a cabinet. - Well, that probably would happen, I would think. I would think that they would probably want her to do something in D.C. if Biden inherits him like that. - Like former governor Jennifer Granholm is now the secretary of audition. - Something, yeah. - There's some big news. - Some of the Congress, I don't know. - Because travel, right? And it rose? - What's that? - Is that a cabinet member or is that? - Yeah, there's cabinets. Yeah, that's usually what we're having. - Yeah, we only tickle back. I got a card card card card card card card card card card. - Do you guys think? - I'm just so cool. - Quick question for you guys, 'cause this has been the biggest story since what a week and a half ago when that debate happened. Do you think that President Biden is the candidate for the Democratic Party, or this thing continues to be talked about about him? - Do I think he is or do I think he should be? - Do you think, no, do you think he is? Yes, I think-- - I think-- - So you don't think somebody else will end up running or vice president? - I don't think he has any intentions of stepping down. - And I think the Democratic Party has their hands tied with the money, the funding. It has to be associated with him, and we're really late in the game to try to switch up that money. - It's like two weeks or something like that. And I think the conversation needs to get off his health and get more on what people are actually gonna do once they sit in their seat. - But how do you deny his health? - I hear what you're saying-- - Yesterday, a whole thing came up about Parkinson's doctor visiting the White House. - Of course, eight times, right? - We just pull everything out our ass and nobody's talking about what was actually said in the debate. - I get it. - Of course, one of them-- - But if the president of the United States has Parkinson's, Kev, you can't have that. - Well, I mean-- - You're gonna take the lesser or two evils in 'cause I'd rather have somebody in there that's looking out for me than somebody that's not. - Well, I don't care if you're shaking or not. - I don't like the idea. I don't like the idea that the president says he gets tired at four o'clock in the afternoon and he has to go to bed. - I don't like the idea that the president won't accept if he lose or not. That's what I don't like. - Listen, I get it, but I'm just gonna say, like I think that there is something to have in a president that possibly may not be all together. And I don't think it's wrong that these Democrats are saying, "Hey, maybe we need to find somebody younger and maybe more vibrant." - Well, I'll play for you next hour, her response to that because she does talk about that. - Jennifer Granholm, Secretary of Energy. - Thank you, thank you. Alec Baldwin is going on trial nearly three years. It's been that long after cinematographer Helina Hutchins was shot and killed on the New Mexico set up the movie Rust. Jury selection actually is happening today with opening statements expected tomorrow. What exactly is Alec Baldwin being charged with here? Felony, involuntary manslaughter. So if the jury convicts him, he could get 18 months in prison. Remember, he was pointing a revolver at Helina Hutchins during a rehearsal when the gun went off, killing her and wounding the movie's director. Alec says he pulled back the hammer, but not the trigger and the gun fired. It has never been determined who brought those live rounds to the set. So jurors have to decide if Alec was negligent with the gun and they have to decide if he acted with disregard for the safety of others. And if they say he's guilty, up to 18 months. (vocalizing) Swifties are celebrating the era's tour anniversary of Travis Kelsey going to Taylor's show in Kansas City with a friendship bracelet that had his phone number on it and a dream of meeting her exactly one year ago. - I was appointed that she doesn't talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings. So I was a little butt hurt. I didn't get to hand her one of the bracelets I've made for her. - Remember that. - And such a lie 'cause they were already hanging out. - Right. - But fast forward one year, hands are still calling it the greatest love story of all time. (vocalizing) And lastly, a Detroit man threw bags of cocaine onto the roofs of the Red Lobster and Texas Roadhouse restaurants in St. Clair County as he was running from authorities. Eric Toulton was arrested by authorities by the drug task force team during this chase, which was on foot. This dude allegedly threw 18 and a half grams of cocaine onto the roof of Red Lobster. Not a lot. - Oh, no. - And 1.8 grams onto the roof of Texas Roadhouse. He was taken into custody in front of a Cudova. He also had a bunch of cash on him. He was charged with possession with intent to deliver cocaine, tampering with evidence, resisting and obstructing and maintaining a drug house. But that's how he tried to get rid of it was throwing out of the room. - Do you think there are people now climbing the Texas Roadhouse and Red Lobsters looking for this? - In St. Clair County. - They're already there for the roles. - Yeah, they say that a lot of times you'll talk to cops and they say that when they're pulling over somebody, they'll see them throw things out the window. And a lot of times it is illegal drugs that they're throwing out. - I'm so shocked. - Yeah. - That's why we go to Chipotle. - The mugshot of this guy, I can't pull it up because I don't have a subscription to the things so it's not letting me show you, but please Google. - It looks like a man doing cocaine. - Mugshot, yes, it will, it will make you smile today. - Hey for all of today's Dirty Ketchup on the podcast on the free I Heart Radio app or move to the morning.com. - Go! - Celebrity dirt. - Directly from the source.
