6
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 2: his first White House appointment and it's a historic one.

7
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: President Biden calls his own presidency historic, but he cautioned

8
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: you might not appreciate his presidency until he's gone.

9
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 2: Also this morning, Trump receeds overwhelming, doting, flattering public praise.

10
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 2: Who would speak of him in such a complimentary way?

11
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin and black people across the country are receiving

12
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:48,200
Speaker 1: texts telling them to quote report to your nearest plantation.

13
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: The DOJ is investigating.

14
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 2: Also, a judge a trine to hear Rudy Giuliani's excuses

15
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 2: and has given the former mayor Meir days to turn

16
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 2: over his possession.

17
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 1: And three people have been charging connecttion with the death

18
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: of former One Direction member Liam Payne.

19
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 2: Also this morning, authorities are on the lookout for forty

20
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:10,680
Speaker 2: three escapees in South Carolina and they're warning people lock

21
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 2: your doors and hid you bananas.

22
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: And get excited. Everyone New York is expecting a special

23
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: delivery tomorrow, a seventy four foot Norway spruce that will

24
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: soon transform into one of the most iconic Christmas trees

25
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: in the world. And we begin our Friday with a first.

26
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: President Elect Trump has made his first and arguably most

27
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 1: important appointment to his new administration. He is named Susie

28
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,119
Speaker 1: Wiles as his chief of staff.

29
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 2: And she will be the first woman ever to serve

30
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 2: in that role. In a statement, Trump called her tough, smart, innovative,

31
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 2: and universally admired and respected. No real surprise as she's

32
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 2: getting the gig. She served as his campaign manager and

33
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 2: has been credited with running an effective, professional, and of

34
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: course now successful campaign.

35
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: She's known for not being so well known. She quietly

36
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: and effectively does her thing behind the scenes. She stays

37
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: out of the spotlight. In fact, Trump tried to put

38
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: her in the spotlight on election night when he acknowledged

39
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: her in his victory speech. He brought her up to

40
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: the podium. She wasn't having it.

41
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, she was still kind of shy it away. You

42
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 2: could tell what this woman, by all accounts, is the

43
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 2: real deal behind the scenes. Now she doesn't look like

44
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 2: it doesn't look like much of a tough cookie. To

45
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 2: be honest, A lot of people look at her. She

46
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 2: looks like a sweet old lady that might bring you

47
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 2: a pie if you're her neighbor. But they say she

48
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,679
Speaker 2: is as tough as they come. She's a well known,

49
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,839
Speaker 2: longtime political operative. Her resume goes back to the Reagan administration.

50
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 2: She's also worked with Florida Governor DeSantis, Senator Scott and

51
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 2: she served as Trump's Florida director in his previous campaign.

52
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: Trump said this in a statement about her. She will

53
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 1: continue to work tirelessly to make America great again. It

54
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: is a well deserved honor to have Susie as the

55
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: first ever female chief of staff in United States history.

56
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: I have no doubt that she will make our country

57
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: proud now.

58
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 2: He said more in that statement about her, and one

59
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 2: line was, well, knowing Trump the way we know Trump,

60
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 2: it was just kind of funny. One part of it reads,

61
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 2: and I quote, Susie Wiles just helped me achieve one

62
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: of the greatest political victories in American history, and was

63
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,959
Speaker 2: an integral part of both my twenty sixteen and twenty

64
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 2: twenty successful campaigns. That's just funny. I mean they were successful.

65
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 2: Maybe he's just saying they were run successfully.

66
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: Maybe that's what he was saying. I'm sure that's what

67
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 1: he meant when he said that. Yes, and notably, she

68
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: is the only campaign manager to survive working an entire

69
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 1: campaign for him. He I think went through four perhaps before.

70
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: So this is a big deal. And she has proven

71
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: that she is trustworthy to him and.

72
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 2: A loyalist is what people kept saying he's going to

73
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 2: be looking for in this administry. He's even said it

74
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 2: himself that he wanted people who are really loyal. She,

75
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 2: no doubt is one of those folks he wanted to

76
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 2: have the job. But I appreciate that she said these

77
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 2: are my conditions. And it's been widely reported that she

78
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 2: said she needed to have in this role more authority

79
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 2: over who has access to him. I guess that was

80
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: the thing in his previous administration. Anybody could just roll

81
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 2: into the White House and roll into the office and

82
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 2: get a chance to see President Trump.

83
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 1: She said, now you have to go through Susie.

84
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 2: And if you see her and know anything about her, now,

85
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 2: you do not want to try to go through Susie.

86
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,119
Speaker 2: And one other little note here, a cool note.

87
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, her dad Pat Summer, all.

88
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 2: Right, NFL player won a championship, I believe with the

89
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 2: Detroit Lions. But a long time and legendary NFL commentator

90
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 2: who also just happens to have been a member of

91
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 2: the University of Arkansas football team. Some weird connections there,

92
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 2: just a random little thing there. But but it's cool

93
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 2: the history to see one's going to be running that

94
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 2: White House for Trump.

95
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: That is a cool thing.

96
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 2: It is just cool, all right.

97
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: Next up on a run, we're going to turn to

98
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,119
Speaker 1: the current president. President Biden addressed the nation yesterday, trying

99
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: to bring the temperature down, he said, and trying to

100
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: reunite the country after this week's divisive election.

101
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 2: He made the speech from the Rose Garden yesterday, repeating

102
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 2: a phrase he's used several times before, just making note

103
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 2: of the atmosphere around our politics these days, in particular

104
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 2: this previous presidential election, and he said, quote, you can't

105
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 2: love your country only when you win. You can't love

106
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 2: your neighbor only when you agree. That last line we

107
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 2: could use every single day. We should remember that as

108
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 2: we go about our day. You cannot love your neighbor

109
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:31,599
Speaker 2: only when you agree.

110
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: And that is such an important thing, and I'm glad

111
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 1: he's been repeating it, and it was a perfect place

112
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,280
Speaker 1: to put it. At the end of this week. Now,

113
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 1: Biden says that he has directed his administration to work

114
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: with President elect Trump's team for a peaceful transition of power.

115
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 1: The President said, this year's election, and this was an

116
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 1: important thing for him to say. It was honest, it

117
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: was fair, it was transparent, and he hopes that no

118
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: matter who you voted for, that we can all see

119
00:05:55,960 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: each other as fellow Americans, not as adversary.

120
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 2: And of course, he praised his vice president, says she

121
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,840
Speaker 2: has great character, true character. Says she gave her whole

122
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,559
Speaker 2: heart and effort as she and her entire team should

123
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 2: be proud of the campaign they ran. Biden made no

124
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 2: mention of the blame that many have placed. We say many.

125
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 2: It's felt like if you watch the coverage, you're like everyone,

126
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 2: all the blame is going to him. He didn't make

127
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 2: any mention for that. He did take time to defend

128
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 2: and highlight the accomplishments of his own presidency.

129
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, he said it. It may take a while, maybe

130
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 1: ten years, for you to feel the effects of this,

131
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 1: but he said, hey, my infrastructure law was a big deal,

132
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 1: and he said, we're going to see over a trillion

133
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: dollars worth of infrastructure work done that's going to change

134
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,039
Speaker 1: people's lives in rural communities and communities that are in

135
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,039
Speaker 1: real difficulty. And he said this, He said, he is

136
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 1: leaving behind the strongest economy in the world.

137
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 2: It was only a six minute speech, but at the

138
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 2: end he left everybody with this, We're going to be okay,

139
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 2: but we need to stay engaged, we need to keep going,

140
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 2: and above all, we need to keep the faith no

141
00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 2: matter what. No matter what, the count survives, we survive

142
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 2: everything and everybody. It seemed as difficult, but the guy

143
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 2: that many credit Trump with putting doubt about our elections

144
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 2: and the integrity of our elections, his reelection has now

145
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 2: reassured us about our system because this guy just one

146
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 2: fair and square. Our system works. A lot of people

147
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 2: don't like the outcome, but it works, and there's got

148
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 2: to be some faith and make you feel a little

149
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 2: good about that, at least.

150
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: I think for you know, with all of the uncertainty

151
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 1: and finger pointing that happened in the last election, where

152
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: our election system are processed, our democracy was called into question.

153
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: It is reassuring to see that at least that in

154
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: this election has not been the issue. And it does

155
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: give reassurance that our country is doing something right, even

156
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 1: if you don't think it's headed in the right direction.

157
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: All right, our run takes us next to Russia. Russian

158
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: President Vladimir Putin publicly congratulated Trump on his victory while

159
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: speaking in Sochi, notably a day after all the other

160
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: world leaders did.

161
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, and a lot of people standing by is he's

162
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 2: really trying to send a message by not sending a message.

163
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 2: But Putin did speak, He made a speech, and he

164
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: did say as well that he's willing to talk to Trump,

165
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 2: but he's gonna have to call me, is essentially what

166
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 2: he's said. We have a criminal spokesperson who reportedly told

167
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 2: the press that Putin is open to talking to Trump

168
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 2: before the inauguration, but Putin wouldn't be the one to

169
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 2: initiate contact. Putin himself suggested that he used to talk

170
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 2: to Western leaders all the time, but all of that stopped,

171
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 2: oh what about a year and a half ago.

172
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,079
Speaker 1: Hmm. I mean, I think it's fair to say that

173
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 1: Putin probably was referring to all of the reaction by

174
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:46,559
Speaker 1: the US and other Western nations because they invaded Ukraine

175
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: the timing works. Putin went on to describe Trump though,

176
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 1: as an inexperienced politician, but then he started laying on

177
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: some kinder words, praising his courageous conduct after the assassination

178
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: attempt in July, that he handled it like a real man,

179
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,080
Speaker 1: I believe. I mean, the translations have varied because he

180
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 1: was saying all of this in Russian, but yes, he

181
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 1: seemed to be very impressed by how Trump handled the

182
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 1: bullet to the ear.

183
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 2: Hearing his comments the first the only image that came

184
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 2: to mind Trump, No, no, not not Trump Putin on

185
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 2: a horse.

186
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 1: Yes, that's exactly what I thought too, because he's.

187
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 2: A real man. That had to be ten years ago.

188
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 2: I don't even know where that.

189
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 1: Was so funny. I had that same image come to

190
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: my mind with that type of talk about being a man.

191
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 1: That is hilarious. Also, just wanted to note I loved

192
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,079
Speaker 1: Politico's headline on this, uh In, referring to the story

193
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: they had called me maybe you know the song that

194
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: that earworm call me.

195
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 2: Maybe you enjoyed this that made me laugh. You were

196
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 2: laughing about this, They said, they're behaving as middle school students.

197
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 2: Now you call me, No, you call me.

198
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: You have to call me first, because I'm not going

199
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: to call you first. I'll talk to you if you

200
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: call me, but only if you call me. Anyway, it

201
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 1: was I got to chuck a lot of it.

202
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 2: Yes, we'll see when they call it takes place. But

203
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 2: stay with us, folks on the morning run. We will

204
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 2: continue in just a moment. People all over the country,

205
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 2: black people in particular, are getting text messages telling them

206
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,719
Speaker 2: what plantation they need to report to. Stay with us.

207
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: Welcome back everyone, next up on our run. The FBI

208
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: is reportedly looking into racist post election text messages that

209
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 1: appear to have been randomly sent to black people around

210
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:38,239
Speaker 1: the country, and in particular to students at several major universities.

211
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,720
Speaker 2: The students at Clemson, Ohio State, Alabama, Missouri State, just

212
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,680
Speaker 2: to name a few, have reported these messages. We have

213
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,319
Speaker 2: high school students in several states who've also reported getting them.

214
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 2: Now this we're gonna we debated kind of about this.

215
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 2: I didn't know how to handle this because it feels

216
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 2: kind of icky, But we're going to let you know

217
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 2: what these messages say. There are various media reports. Several

218
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 2: screen show all these messages are similar in pretty much

219
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 2: their tone and what they're instructing. Some of the languages

220
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 2: changed a word or two. And some people even say

221
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 2: some of these messages came with their names. Yes, that

222
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 2: was the top of them.

223
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: That was the scary part. To get a message like

224
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: this and then to have your name, to have you

225
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 1: be specifically targeted is concerning. And yeah, I even have

226
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: a hard time reading this, but I will, just wanting

227
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: to put that out there. This is not a fun

228
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 1: thing to read. The emails basically say this greetings, You

229
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 1: have been selected to pick cotton at the nearest plantation.

230
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: Be ready at twelve pm sharp with your belongings. Our

231
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 1: executive slaves will come get you in a black van.

232
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 1: Be prepared to be searched down once you've entered the plantation.

233
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: You are in plantation group S.

234
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, so they vary a little bit by time. Color

235
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 2: of the vans round, and one of them plantation that

236
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 2: you're assigned to. But these are text messages that have

237
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 2: been popping up in several states of Fish are aware

238
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 2: of the messages, they are looking into them. Clemson put

239
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 2: out an alert to their students saying that they've been

240
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 2: able to trace the messages back to what it called

241
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 2: online spoofing sites.

242
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, the messages have come from anonymous numbers tied to

243
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 1: a service called text Now. It's a messaging service that

244
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:23,199
Speaker 1: allows users to send messages from untraceable numbers. It's kind

245
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 1: of like a burner phone, except for it's an app.

246
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 1: Text Now tells NBC News that as soon as they

247
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 1: were made aware of the text they shut down the

248
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: accounts within the hour. But I mean not soon enough.

249
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 2: Were you aware of this. I didn't know there was

250
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,560
Speaker 2: a burner phone situation. Via app, you essentially can't. It's

251
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 2: a so if you have Wi Fi, you can get

252
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 2: a phone number without a cell carrier and send these messages.

253
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 2: And they even say it's hard if you can get

254
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 2: a nasty message. They tell you, even the company that

255
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 2: it's hard for us to trace back because we're not

256
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 2: asking for information from the user. You don't have to

257
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 2: sign them with your name, your location, nothing.

258
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 1: So it's anonymous. Yeah, it's kind of I was just

259
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 1: thinking hearkening back to when we were kids, and didn't

260
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 1: you have to hit star six seven if you called

261
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 1: someone and you wanted it to say unknown number or whatever,

262
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 1: it's that version of it. But right, wow, but some.

263
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 2: Of these messages do even mention Trump, like at the

264
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 2: end they sign off as Trump Administration or Donald Trump

265
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,559
Speaker 2: at the end. So this is just a powerful the

266
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 2: nastiness they're Trump. And this could be just some silly

267
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 2: kid in thinking this is funny, but it could be

268
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 2: a larger thing.

269
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: Oh, list, it's real feelings. If if you, if you're reading,

270
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: you know what these poor kids were feeling when they

271
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 1: read it. You can say, oh, it's just a silly

272
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: text message message, but no, I mean it shocks you

273
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 1: to your core. And parents were upset that their children

274
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: were actually receiving these messages and feeling what that felt

275
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 1: to read those types of words.

276
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 2: So, and we're talking about messages and text excuse me students,

277
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 2: but adults were getting these as well. Yeah, several adults

278
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,559
Speaker 2: were so imagine a man or a woman and grew

279
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 2: up in the South that hearkens back to stories you

280
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 2: actually heard from grandparents and great grandparents and history that

281
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 2: it stings a little differently. And it's not just a joke,

282
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:07,959
Speaker 2: even if it was meant to be.

283
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: Any fun, It's not just a joke, all right, next

284
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: up on our run, we're going to head to Manhattan,

285
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: where former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani was back in court Thursday,

286
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: and he didn't seem too happy to be there. It

287
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 1: was described as a lengthy court hearing. Federal judge gave

288
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: him until the end of next week. He said, you've

289
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: got to hand over those keys to that Mercedes you

290
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: were driving around in earlier in the week that you

291
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: claim not to know where it is. They want him

292
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 1: to ship two dozen watches, his furniture, his sports memorabilia

293
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 1: to the two Georgia women he defamed, or else. The

294
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: judge said he is going to face contempt of court charges.

295
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 2: He was visibly shaken, frustrated. I think pissed off is

296
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 2: the right way to put it in court, at least

297
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 2: the way something were describing. And as he was shaking

298
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 2: his head, he was making all kinds of gestures. He

299
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 2: was loud enough in some of his exasperations that the

300
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 2: microphone was picking it up in front of him. His

301
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 2: attorney accused the two formal election workers of being this

302
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 2: is their word, vindictive, So that prompted the judge to

303
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 2: really scold them for that just being ridiculous. You owe

304
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 2: a debt, you have to pay the debt. And I

305
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 2: don't give a damn if it's a family heirloom or not.

306
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:17,840
Speaker 2: This is the way the law works.

307
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, And so to be clear, Giuliani was ordered to

308
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: pay the former election workers one hundred forty five million dollars.

309
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 1: That was the court ruling as a result of their

310
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 1: defamation suit against the former mayor. And so he has

311
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 1: until November fourteenth, that is next Thursday correct to hand

312
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 1: over his possessions, including that six million dollar Manhattan condo

313
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: that they found virtually empty because he had removed all

314
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: of his items and they are now in unknown locations.

315
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: Leaving the court, Giuliani said that that judgment, to anyone sensible,

316
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 1: is ridiculous. That was a word that was thrown around

317
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: a bunch yesterday. He said it was punitive and done

318
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: because he is a Republican. He said he wasn't going

319
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 1: to ask Trump for hew help, but he did want

320
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 1: help with the court system because he said it is flawed.

321
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 2: Well, apparently he's well, he's been accused of The stuff

322
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 2: is in storage somewhere and he says he doesn't have

323
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 2: access to it.

324
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 1: The guy's on vacation for a month, you can't get

325
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: the keys to his own storage unit. And then yeah,

326
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: his son has some of the watches. So there have

327
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: been a lot of excuses thrown around, and the judge said, no,

328
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: mas produce the items and give them to the women.

329
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 2: Not just politics here. This is tough, certainly for a

330
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 2: lot of New Yorkers. He could do no wrong after

331
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 2: nine to eleven age. Now you have to credit him

332
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 2: for what happened after that. You just do, and everybody did.

333
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 2: He was the country's mayor, the nation's mayor. This is

334
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 2: a hell of a fall, and to see it, it's

335
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 2: just kind of nasty and ugly and ridiculous, as you

336
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 2: keep saying. But yeah, this is the law.

337
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 1: Next Thursday, TikTok.

338
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 2: We shall see. We do. Take you now on this

339
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 2: run to Argentina for an update on the death of

340
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 2: One Direction band member Liam Payne. There have now been

341
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 2: three people charged in connection with his death. They have

342
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 2: not been publicly named. What one person is described as

343
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 2: someone who accompanied him on a daily basis during his

344
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 2: stay in Buenos Aires.

345
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that person has been charged with crimes of

346
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: abandonment of a person followed by death. It's a charge

347
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 1: in Argentina that carries a sentence of five to fifteen

348
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: years in prison if convicted, and authorities to charge the

349
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 1: other two people with two counts each of supplying narcotics

350
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: to Pain. One is a hotel employee and the other

351
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,400
Speaker 1: is described as a drug supplier.

352
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,199
Speaker 2: The investigation into Pain's death also revealed that there was

353
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 2: no self harm of any kind and that Pain was

354
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 2: quoting here not fully conscious or was experiencing a state

355
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 2: of noticeable decrease or loss of consciousness at the time

356
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 2: of the fall. The prosecutors broken down like this, Pain

357
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 2: did not know what he was doing, nor could he

358
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 2: understand it. I've been talking to you this morning, I'd

359
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 2: not fully conscious. Possibly he was possibly unconscious when he fell.

360
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 2: Then why is someone not being looked at as possibly

361
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 2: this being a homicide?

362
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,479
Speaker 1: We were trying to figure out if the balcony the

363
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 1: guardrails like normally they're high enough for that wouldn't be possible.

364
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,880
Speaker 1: So it's a little confusing to understand how it all happened.

365
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 1: But three people have officially been charged. Next up on

366
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: the Run forty three Monkeys on the Run. It sounds

367
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 1: like the plot of an action thriller, maybe even a

368
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 1: horror movie. Authorities strongly advising residents of your Massy, South

369
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: Carolina to keep their doors and windows locked after more

370
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: than forty monkeys escaped from a nearby research laboratory.

371
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 2: They tell us that authorities have set up traps around town.

372
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 2: What's a monkey trap? Was it looking?

373
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: I don't know.

374
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 2: Okay, there's a big box. I don't think.

375
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:47,639
Speaker 1: I want to know.

376
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 2: You put a banana inside? Maybe they run in and

377
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 2: in the door closed? Wow? Did I get that?

378
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: Sounds like Tom and Jerry to say, yes, Okay, they're

379
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: doing that and also using thermal imaging cameras.

380
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,439
Speaker 2: But so far are they are? Oh? For forty three.

381
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 2: All forty three monkeys are still on the run. They

382
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 2: escaped in Mas around one o'clock on Wednesday. An employee,

383
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,360
Speaker 2: I hear this right, A new employee. Yeh, a new

384
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 2: employee didn't fully shut an enclosure. You essentially just didn't

385
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 2: like being the warden at a prison and you've forgot

386
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 2: to close the cell. Yeah. They have been on the

387
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 2: run since then. Research of Sildy says it's currently has

388
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 2: eyes on the primates, whatever that means, and it's trying

389
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 2: to entice them with food.

390
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: I think they're trying to make everyone feel better. They

391
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 1: are Reese's macaque monkeys. They can grow up to twenty

392
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 1: one inches tall. They weighed just under twenty pounds each,

393
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: so they're little. I think they're females too. That was

394
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: their little guys, but their little girls. The Sheriff's office

395
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: is wanting residents not to approach any of the monkeys,

396
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 1: to call nine to one one immediately if you see

397
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 1: any of the animals. Not sure how reassuring this is,

398
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: but police did go on to say, and they made

399
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,920
Speaker 1: this very clear. We want to assure the community there

400
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 1: is no health risk associated with these animals, meaning they

401
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 1: haven't they don't have any diseases or anything.

402
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 2: There's no health risk. But stay away and call nine

403
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 2: one one.

404
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 1: And lock your doors and windows and don't approach the monkeys.

405
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 1: But there is no risk whatsoever.

406
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,679
Speaker 2: Not to worry about her, folks. Now, the Resource Labs

407
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 2: as it provides the highest quality non human primate products

408
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 2: and BioResearch services worldwide. This particular facility, I believe breeds

409
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 2: monkeys and then provides them to the actual facilities that

410
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 2: end up doing research. But this is apparently a pretty

411
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 2: good size facility, and they've been around a while. They

412
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 2: are supposed to know what they're doing.

413
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 1: They've been around a while, and they've had This is

414
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 1: a little disturbing. This isn't the first time that something

415
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: like this has happened. It happened in twenty fourteen when

416
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,919
Speaker 1: nineteen monkeys got out. That was in twenty sixteen. Twenty

417
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 1: six got out in twenty fourteen, and in twenty eighteen

418
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 1: dozens of primates escape. So they don't have a great

419
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: track record for closing those are fully locking those enclosures.

420
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 2: Obviously, we don't want anybody injured, anybody hurt. But aren't

421
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:56,479
Speaker 2: you rooting for the monkeys a little bit?

422
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I just if they have eyes on them,

423
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: could we please get like a drone over that. I'd

424
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: love to see. How they're not able to catch these

425
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 1: forty six monkeys.

426
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 2: They say they're using thermal imaging to try to find them,

427
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 2: but no success. But still they have eyes on them.

428
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 1: I don't know what that means. It's not that reassuring.

429
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 2: How long for you when this story came out, were

430
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 2: you singing the Aladdin song He's got the monkeys, Let's

431
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:21,880
Speaker 2: see the monkeys, Prince?

432
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: Yes, Oh my goodness. Well, yes, we'll try to keep

433
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 1: an update on that coming up on Monday. We'll see

434
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: if we got the monkeys back in the enclosure. All right.

435
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 1: For the final leg of this morning's run, it's beginning

436
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: to look a lot like Christmas, Oh, my favorite time

437
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,879
Speaker 1: of year. A giant Norway spruce making its way to

438
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 1: New York City from its tiny Massachusetts hometown.

439
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 2: Seventy four footer I was cut down yesterday, hoisted by

440
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 2: a crane into a flatbed truck. Now it's making the

441
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 2: one hundred and forty mile journey to Rockefeller Center. Workers

442
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,920
Speaker 2: will put up the tree tomorrow. It's on Saturday. It'll

443
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 2: be decorated fifty thousand multi colored lights and will stay

444
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,199
Speaker 2: on display through the holiday into mid January.

445
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, and organizers they spotted this tree four years ago,

446
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 1: back in twenty twenty. They knocked on the door of

447
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: the owner saying, hey, would you one day consider donating

448
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 1: this tree to Rockefeller Center And the family immediately said yes.

449
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: And it's been very exciting in the hometown West Stockbridge, Massachusetts.

450
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,159
Speaker 1: To be specific, tourists have been flocking to see the

451
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: tree before it was cut down in as it was

452
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,360
Speaker 1: being cut down. Apparently this is a big thing, people

453
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,640
Speaker 1: traveling from all over the world to watch the tree

454
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 1: be cut down.

455
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 2: I didn't know about that. Yeah, I didn't know that

456
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 2: it was a thing to see it cut down. I

457
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 2: had no idea. That's cool. This marks the first time

458
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 2: since nineteen fifty nine that the tree is from Massachusetts.

459
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 2: More than sixty million tourists. We'll see it once it

460
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 2: makes it here. A tree lighting ceremony is set for

461
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 2: December fourth. I didn't, I don't. I didn't get this

462
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 2: tree was planted back in like nineteen sixty seven and

463
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:51,639
Speaker 2: sixty nine.

464
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 1: Some part of me was like, oh, it is sad

465
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 1: to have the tree cut down in a sense, but

466
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: it is being enjoyed by sixty million people. The other

467
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 1: cool thing I didn't realize this. They will the tree

468
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 1: after it's taken down contributes to Habitat for Humanities homebuilding

469

Speaker 1: projects because the wood from the tree is donated to

470
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 1: help provide affordable housing for folks. So that's a pretty cool,

471
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,959
Speaker 1: full circle moment for the tree.

472
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 2: It's had a good life and it's still that life.

473

474
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,960

475
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,479
Speaker 2: long time. Okay, okay, now.

476
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:27,919
Speaker 1: In the Christmas spirit, now teaching I will never be

477

Speaker 1: in the Christmas spirit. I'll have enough for both of us.

478
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 2: And that was very scroogey of me, everybody. I apologize.

479
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,440
Speaker 2: I'm just saying there's a lot of stress that comes

480
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 2: with Christmas for me, and I don't want to be

481
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 2: picking out a tree before I get a Thanksgiving turkey.

482
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 2: It doesn't make sense.

483
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,680
Speaker 1: Can we do it the weekend of Thanksgiving? That's okay, okay,

484

Speaker 2: and go into your weekend, we would like you to

487
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 2: consider this as you go about your day and your weekend.

488
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: All right. Quote of the day. The most common way

489
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 1: people give up their power is by thinking they don't

490
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 1: have any That is from Alice Walker. She is the

491
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,679
Speaker 1: author of The Color Purple and I don't know, we

492
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 1: just thought this was a perfect quote to end this week.

493
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:14,440
Speaker 1: If you feel anything about the election, you can think

494
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 1: about what you can have control over in your own life,

495
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 1: and you certainly have the power to do that.

496
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 2: So again, folks, take that with you. The most common

497
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 2: way people give up their power is by thinking they

498
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 2: don't have any. End with that we will wrap up
