Speaker 1: Holmes and I'm Amy Roeboch. On the run this morning,

5
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 1: a new fire explodes in LA and it's moving fast.

6
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 2: Also, a first ever blizzard warning in Texas, nine inches

7
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 2: of snow in Florida. Some wild and deadly winter weather

8
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 2: is impacting millions. Also, the new administration says bye bye

9
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 2: to DEI and the Justice Department tells locals to get

10
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:32,560
Speaker 2: on board or get prosecuted.

11
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:35,560
Speaker 1: Also on the run this morning, Lyndon B. Johnson's historic

12
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 1: civil rights achievement wiped out with the stroke of Trump's pen.

13
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 1: And thousands of US service members are being deployed, but

14
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: they're not going overseas.

15
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 2: Plus this morning, one info from the federal government you

16
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 2: better ah blah on lace. And a student shot and

17
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 2: killed in the cafeteria at a Nashville high school.

18
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,639
Speaker 1: Finally, this morning, a bill is ready for Trump's signature,

19
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: and after two delays, the Oscar nominations are coming out today.

20
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: We begin our run, though in California with more fire concerns.

21
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: Fire crews in La are dealing now with a new

22
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: growing and fast moving fire.

23
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 2: It's called the Hues Fire. It's now prompted new evacuations.

24
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 2: Thirty one thousand people have been ordered to get out

25
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,479
Speaker 2: of the immediate area of the fire, which is burning

26
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 2: northwest of La near the community of Kostiak.

27
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 1: The fire has burned at least ten thousand acres so far,

28
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: and as of this recording, it was only fourteen percent contained.

29
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 1: The largest fire right now, the Palisades Fire, continues to burn,

30
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 1: but at last update it was seventy percent contained.

31
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 2: Eaten Fire, the next largest, is now ninety five percent contained.

32
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 2: The National Weather Service has extended red flag warnings through

33
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 2: tomorrow in the LA area. But rain is forecast for

34
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 2: the weekend. That is a good thing. Sounds like a

35
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 2: great thing, yes, yes, yes, But we talked about here

36
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 2: yesterday the threat now of mud slides with extra rain

37
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 2: coming in, with all that debris sitting on hillsides.

38
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: It feels like California just can't right now. But certainly

39
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: we will keep our eye on that situation and keep

40
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 1: you updated. But we go from fire to ice for

41
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 1: the next leg of our run. We head to the

42
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,920
Speaker 1: snowy South. People from Texas to Florida are digging out

43
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: from what officials are calling a once in a lifetime snowstorm.

44
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 2: Now. The storm is responsible now for at least ten deaths.

45
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 2: It's shut down airports, crippled highways. Seven people died in Texas,

46
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 2: five of them killed in a car crash in the

47
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 2: icy conditions, two people die from exposure, and then in

48
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 2: Alabama two whether related deaths there and in Georgia there's

49
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 2: been one death reported from hypothermia.

50
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: Nearly four thousand flights have been canceled over the past

51
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: two days. Houston and New Orleans both had to shut

52
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: down their airports for a periods of time during the

53
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 1: height of the storm, and in Atlanta, more than one

54
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: hundred vehicles were left stranded on roadways, making it very

55
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,959
Speaker 1: difficult for authorities to respond to multiple emergencies there.

56
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 2: So how much snow are we talking about here? Florida

57
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 2: broke records nine inches of snow in Pensacola, Texas first

58
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 2: time ever had a blizzard warning, and then Beaumont, Texas

59
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 2: had a record breaking amount five point two inches of snow.

60
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 2: In a lot of places, they say five point two inches,

61
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: we don't even cancel school here. In Buffalo for that,

62
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 2: but five point two inches in Texas is a very

63
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 2: rare and very big deal.

64
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 1: Yeahmobile, Alabama saw an all time high of seven point

65
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 1: five inches. Many areas of snow say they got more

66
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: snow than they've seen in one hundred thirty years. New

67
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: Orleans we've been seeing these images everywhere, got ten inches.

68
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 1: That's the most snow there since eighteen ninety five.

69
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,239
Speaker 2: All that snow, though, isn't going anywhere as the issues

70
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 2: because the freezing cold temperatures. So you got eleven million

71
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 2: folks in the southeast under some kind of cold weather alert.

72
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 2: So the stuff is going to stick around for quite

73
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 2: a bit. It's going to be slick for quite a

74
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 2: bit and dangerous. But there are multiple places now all

75
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 2: time record lows that are dealing with this morning.

76
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 1: All right, next up on the run this morning, Wednesdays

77
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: five pm deadline has come and gone, and so this

78
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: morning all employees of diversity, equity and occlusion offices at

79
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,839
Speaker 1: federal agencies are on paid administrative leave.

80
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, this ultimately leaves about two and a half million

81
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 2: people without a job. We're talking about federal workers here.

82
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 2: President Trump has effectively ended affirmative action it's a decade long,

83
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 2: decades old practice that was put in place by Lyndon B.

84
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 2: Johnson back in nineteen sixty five.

85
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, Johnson's executive order. This came, of course, amid the

86
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: Civil Rights movement, barred discrimination in government employment and required

87
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: all federal contractors to take affirmative action to promote equal

88
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: opportunities for women and minorities.

89
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 2: And twenty twenty one, President Biden issued an executive order

90
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 2: to create diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility in the federal

91
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 2: workforce to strengthen affirmative action.

92
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: I tried to click on that link from June of

93
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one to read more about Biden's orders, just

94
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 1: to get a better sense of it, right, But then

95
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: I got an error message because it sent me to

96
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: a White House dot gov page that has been removed.

97
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 1: That I remembered all DEI focused websites and social media accounts,

98
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 1: anything that has anything to do with that. We're all

99
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 1: taken down by that deadline, that five pm deadline yesterday

100
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: as well. And I saw that indeed has happened.

101
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 2: And the White House is calling these DEIA programs and

102
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 2: I'm quoting here an immense public waste that created and

103
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 2: quoting again shameful discrimination within the government. Trump is restoring

104
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 2: strictly merit based hiring practices. The White House said the

105
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 2: memo Americans deserve a government committed to serving every person

106
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 2: with equal dignity and respect, and to expending precious taxpayer

107
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 2: resources only on making America great end quote. I think

108
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 2: a lot of people would agree with that statement. The

109
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 2: problem is just not the nature of our country. Do

110
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 2: we just have Look, we have a history that makes

111
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 2: us not equal, and you do have to put laws

112
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,159
Speaker 2: and things in place to try to find some kind

113
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: of a balance. But yes, that sounds great. We should

114
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 2: be committed to every person being treated equally. That's not

115
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 2: the case. That's why you have to put rules in

116
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 2: place with people do sometimes follow.

117
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 1: Well, those rules are now gone and a lot of

118
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: folks don't have their jobs. And there are a lot

119
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,679
Speaker 1: of lawsuits that will be filed over this, and many

120
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 1: have already been filed over these executive orders. So, yes,

121
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: it's being enacted, and yes it's being enforced, but we

122
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 1: shall see if it will last. Next up on the

123
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,919
Speaker 1: run more executive orders and more decisions by the Trump administration.

124
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 1: It is now sending fifteen hundred active duty troops to

125
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: the US Mexico border. By the end of this month.

126
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 1: Those troops will join two hundred I mean will join

127
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,159
Speaker 1: twenty five hundred soldiers who are already stationed there, and

128
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,359
Speaker 1: there are now reports that as many as ten thousand

129
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 1: soldiers could be following suits.

130
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,720
Speaker 2: And internal government memoal details what Trump administration officials are

131
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 2: considering as they plan their crackdown on a legal immigration.

132
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 2: The document also says officials want fourteen new detention facilities

133
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 2: to hold up to one thousand migrants each, and then

134
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 2: for more that would commodate up to ten thousand each.

135
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: One of the many executive orders signed by Trump this

136
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: week declares a national emergency along the southern border, and

137
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: it orders the Defense Department to support the activities of

138
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: the Secretary of Homeland Security in obtaining complete operational control

139
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: of the border. So basically, whatever it takes to enforce that,

140
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,679
Speaker 1: and that is exactly what we're seeing happening there along

141
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: the southern border.

142
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 2: And we will continue on the next leg of our

143
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 2: Iran and we will continue on the immigration front, where

144
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 2: President Trump has now put state and local officials on notice,

145
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 2: you will be prosecuted if you get in the way

146
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 2: of my immigration crackdown. A Justice Department memo instructed employees

147
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,239
Speaker 2: to go after what it called state and local actors

148
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 2: who might resist, obstruct, or fail to comply with lawful

149
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 2: immigration related commands and requests.

150
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 1: President Trump has a number of new immigration related commands

151
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: and requests, having already signed several executive orders aimed at

152
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: immigration enforcement. So the new DOJ directive could set up

153
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 1: a show down between the Trump administration and sanctuary cities

154
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 1: across the country, some of which have rules state laws

155
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 1: that prohibit law enforcement from taking action against undocumented immigrants

156
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: who sought safe harbor.

157
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 2: There in Chicago is one of those sanctuary cities you've

158
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 2: been hearing a lot about. It could be primed for

159
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 2: a DOJ crackdown. Its mayor has already come out doubled down,

160
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 2: saying their law enforcement will not participate in immigration enforcement

161
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 2: in any way. So they're going to be buttonheads and

162
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 2: they will be in court. How soon, we don't know,

163
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:35,559
Speaker 2: but my guess would be pretty.

164
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 1: Soon soon enough. Next up on the Run. Within hours

165
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: of President Trump's swearing in ceremony, the Spanish language version

166
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,959
Speaker 1: of the official White House website went dark.

167
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,079
Speaker 2: Hey, it gives users an error four h four code.

168
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 2: You've seen that plenty of times in your life if

169
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 2: you spend any time on the internet. It directed people

170
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 2: to a video montage of Trump from his first term

171
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 2: in office and on the campaign trail. So when you

172
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 2: got the error code, it said four or four code.

173
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 2: That error code, it simply had a button up that

174
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 2: it says go home, and that's when you were sent

175
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 2: to that Trump video. It now says go to homepage.

176
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 2: But that's all you get.

177
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 1: You could see why go home might have been a

178
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: little bit. It felt like a warning or an instruction

179
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:22,199
Speaker 1: to folks who speak Spanish, and so they realized that

180
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: that might not sit well, and so they changed it

181
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: when people pointed that out. Who knows if that was

182
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 1: delivered or not. It might have just been an innocent

183
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: accident to say go home instead of go to homepage,

184
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 1: but they did make that change. The Spanish profile of

185
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 1: the White House on x at La Casablanca was also disbanded,

186
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: and a White House spokesperson said the administration is quote

187
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: committed to bringing back online the Spanish translation section of

188
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 1: the website.

189
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 2: Okay, some of this might sound familiar to you, because

190
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,439
Speaker 2: back in twenty seventeen, Trump did the same thing, remove

191
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 2: the Spanish version of the White House Page. White House

192
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 2: officials said they would reinstate it. They never did.

193
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, it took until Biden became president in twenty twenty

194
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: one before it was actually reinstated. So it's understandable why

195
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: Hispanic advocacy groups are skeptical. They also say they're confused

196
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 1: and they're frustrated. They say they don't understand the administration's

197
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 1: lack of efforts to maintain communication with the Latino community.

198
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 1: They say, the very community that helped put him back

199
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 1: in the White House.

200
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 2: It just it's I don't know, what do you do?

201
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 2: There are plenty just know this. There are plenty people

202
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 2: who are applauding this. There are plenty of people we

203
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 2: even know personally who have issue take issue with every

204
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 2: time you go somewhere, even to an ATM, or you

205
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 2: make a phone call to some company and says would

206
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 2: you like English to continue in Spanish press too? That

207
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 2: annoys people. For whatever reason, this just it seemed unnecessary

208
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 2: maybe to do so. But there are a lot of

209
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 2: people who are in this country, who are leally in

210
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 2: this country, who might not have English as their first

211
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 2: language and need a little help navigating complicated federal government things,

212
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:58,680
Speaker 2: and Spanish is helpful.

213
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 1: Look, I appreciate it when I travel internationally and I'm

214
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 1: in a foreign country where I not only don't understand

215
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 1: the language, I don't understand the alphabet, and thank goodness,

216
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: I almost always see English put up in instruction signs,

217
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 1: and I appreciate that. So you know, I understand why

218
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: it's helpful and in some cases necessary to navigate a

219
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 1: new country, especially if you're here legally.

220
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 2: Well, they say it's coming back, so maybe this time

221
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 2: they will bring it back unlike last time. To stay

222
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 2: with us here on this Thursday Morning run. When we

223
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 2: come back, the President has his first bill ready for

224
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 2: his signature during his new administration. Also, we may have

225
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 2: just seen the first school shooting in the country in

226
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 2: the new year, and we go back to LA for

227
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 2: a different type of headline. We continue our Thursday Morning

228
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,440
Speaker 2: run now and we will head back to DC for

229
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 2: this next leg and the first bill of the new

230
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 2: Congress is ready for the President's signature, and it represents

231
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,679
Speaker 2: a major legislative win for President Trump.

232
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 1: The House approved the Lake and Riley Act yesterday, named

233
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 1: after the Uga college student who was killed by an

234
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: undocumented immigrant last year when she was out for a run.

235
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, The bill, which passed the Senate earlier this week,

236
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 2: requires the detention and deportation of undocumented immigrants who have

237
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 2: been arrested for certain crimes like theft. The bill needs

238
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,439
Speaker 2: a bipartisan support in the House and Senate to pass.

239
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 2: It did get that needed support. Forty six Democrats in

240
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 2: the House voted for it, twelve voted for it in

241
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 2: the Senate. This is a major victory. Has been a

242
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 2: big immigration push by the president. You heard about it

243
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 2: before he took office, you heard him talk about it

244
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 2: during his inauguration speech, and you have seen it in

245
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 2: the actions he has taken with several of his executive orders.

246
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 2: And now on top of all that, he gets this

247
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 2: legislative win as well.

248
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was well timed, all within the first week

249
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 1: of his presidency. Next up on our run, though, some

250
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: very sad and disturbing news to pass along to you.

251
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 1: A seventeen year old shot and killed a fellow student

252
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 1: in the cafeteria of a Nashville high school yesterday before

253
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: then taking his own life.

254
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. Police are searching for a motive here in this

255
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 2: shooting that sends students scrambling during lunchtime at Antioch High School.

256
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 2: A sixteen year old female student was killed.

257
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 1: Another student was injured in the shooting but is expected

258
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 1: to be okay. Authorities are now going over the shooter's

259
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 1: online profile and say they are looking into disturbing writings

260
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:33,680
Speaker 1: and social media posts. Yet again, another situation where yes,

261
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 1: there were red flags, there were warning signs. It's just difficult,

262
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,599
Speaker 1: and it's easy to look back Monday morning quarterbacking and

263
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 1: say we should have, we could have. But it's important

264
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: to try and understand, to try and and thwart some

265
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: of these awful tragedies before they happen.

266
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 2: You know, there was a did read the comments from

267
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 2: the young lady, sixteen year old who died. There was

268
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,839
Speaker 2: a lot that he said. I mean, I say a lot,

269
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 2: I mean, how much can you say? But the thing

270
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 2: that stood out, he just said, it's not fair, all right,

271
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 2: you send your sixteen year old to school. It's just

272
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 2: not fair that your sixteen year old daughter is in

273
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 2: school some kid. Don't know if they had a relation,

274
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 2: if it was random, if he targeted her, it's just,

275
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 2: you know, you send your sixteen year old child to school,

276
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:16,959
Speaker 2: she'd come home at the end of the day.

277
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: It's terrible. There was a statistic a few years ago

278
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: when we were constantly and I was constantly being sent

279
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: around the country covering these school shootings where they actually

280
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: said it was more dangerous to send your teenager to

281
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 1: school than it was to send them to war or

282
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 1: at least to service in the US military. And that

283
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 1: is just such a stark and sobering fact. That is

284
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 1: something that we can prevent and something we can stop.

285
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: It's just it's tough to hear and tough to report

286
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: on you.

287
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 2: I remember that point, that the one you're making there.

288
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 2: But how is it possible that we have more students

289
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 2: killed at school than soldiers killed it on the battlefield abroad?

290
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 2: Of certain that's sweet. Got to do better than that,

291
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 2: thinking about you there, Nashville. I do believe this is

292
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 2: the first. There was another case where a young lady

293
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 2: actually took her own life at a school in Georgia

294
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 2: earlier this year, but this is the first school shooting

295
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 2: in which another student was targeted. So this is the

296
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 2: first thing we come to expect them like, there's going

297
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 2: to be more this year. Let's get rid.

298
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: It's sickening. It's really, it's truly sickening.

299
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 2: We're going to continue our run here. This last leg,

300
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 2: we're going to head back to LA but for a

301
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 2: different type of headline, non fire related, but fire adjacent,

302
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 2: I guess, but something here we want you to kind

303
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 2: of keep your eye on today. The Oscar nominations will

304
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 2: be announced this morning, after a couple of delays.

305
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: That's right, you'll remember the nominations. We're supposed to be

306
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: announced January seventeenth, but the LA fire disaster prompted the

307
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 1: Academy to twice extend their voting window, which also then

308
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 1: pushed back the announcement of the nominees to today. And

309
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: the show, by the way, will go on as it

310
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: was originally scheduled for March.

311
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 2: Seconds. Now, you did have some folks coming out. They

312
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 2: were vocal in their opinions that the show should be

313
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 2: canceled because of the LA wildfires. Organizers, though, say the

314
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 2: show is going to be refocused on wildfire recovery. Of course,

315
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 2: there'll be fundraisers and they're also going to honor firefighters

316
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 2: out there. Announcement is going to be made at eight

317
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 2: thirty Eastern time. Wish we could tell you what to

318
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 2: keep an eye on. Obviously Wicket is going to be

319
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 2: a big one. After that, I do not know what

320
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 2: to talk about.

321
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: Well, so we looked at the this is We've talked

322
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: about this maybe a little bit before, but we looked

323
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: at the list of potential nominees and I'm sad to

324
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 1: say that the only one we've seen is The Substance,

325
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: because everything else isn't a horror movie. And so we

326
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: need to actually get on that, babe, and try to

327
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 1: start watching some of these other non horror movies. And

328
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 1: I like The Substance. You weren't even a fan of that. Look,

329
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: it's gory.

330
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 2: It wasn't my fit. It's gory, it's bizarre.

331
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 1: You call it body horror. You're like, I don't I

332
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 1: like horror. I don't like body horror. In fact, you

333
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 1: were angry at looking watch it.

334
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 2: You were on me for a long time that you

335
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 2: wanted to see that, and it had so much buzz

336
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 2: about it, and but there was a yes, there's commentary

337
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,639
Speaker 2: in there, some social commentary in there that I get

338
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 2: the idea of it. I really really really liked, but

339
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,199
Speaker 2: the execution of it and what it became through me,

340
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,199
Speaker 2: and it is not mine.

341
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 1: The sound effects I mean, oh my god, just the

342
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,919
Speaker 1: sound effects alone of what you were seeing added like

343
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: put the gore on a whole new level. I enjoyed it,

344
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 1: but I will admit I had to close my eyes

345
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 1: for at least a quarter of it because I could

346
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,679
Speaker 1: not keep watching it. We'll get on it. And uh,

347
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 1: there's a lot of buzz about a lot of movies.

348
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 2: And the other I mean, I really don't know the brutalist.

349
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: The brutalist is one that I want to see.

350
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 2: Yes, this is the Timmy SHOs Timothy Chalamaye one getting attention,

351
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,880
Speaker 2: the Bob Dylan one.

352
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 1: Oh I don't know. See this is terrible. I mean

353
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 1: my daughter saw it and loved it, said it was great.

354
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: So yeah, we need we need to get on that

355
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 1: for sure. But I I will say I like the

356
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 1: idea that the Oscars are staying on schedule as the

357
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: Grammys are as well, because it's another opportunity. Look, people,

358
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,919
Speaker 1: we all in the media report on things as they're happening,

359
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: when they're happening, and then we kind of forget about it.

360
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,439
Speaker 1: We forget about the people who are left to pick

361
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: up the pieces, to dig through the rubble and the

362
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 1: ashes and have nothing left. So it's nice you can

363
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 1: continue to shine a spotlight on what's needed and the

364
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 1: people who rose to the occasion. So I think it's

365
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 1: a great idea to keep it in the forefront of

366
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,959
Speaker 1: a lot of folks minds and maybe continue to get

367
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: those donations coming in for people who desperately need it.

368
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,119
Speaker 2: That all makes sense. That's one sign of the argument.

369
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 2: The other one is there is no night in la

370
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 2: in Hollywood that is more over the top, showy patting

371
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,360
Speaker 2: myself on the back display of wealth and privilege than

372
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,880
Speaker 2: that night. I get that. Don't get me wrong, plenty

373
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,199
Speaker 2: of these folks are. We're not knocking any of the

374
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 2: work that the folks do, but it's viewed it's perceived

375
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 2: as that type of night for Hollywood. And so when

376
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 2: people do that and juxtapose that with what Eli has

377
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 2: gone through, like how in the world can these two

378
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 2: things marry? But the Oscars is such an important part

379
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 2: of that city. It's not just about the folks on

380
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 2: the red carpet. Think about the poops who rolled out

381
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 2: that red carpet, the work that went into all those photographers,

382
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 2: all those producers, all that work, all those maintenance full.

383
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,159
Speaker 2: All that is though, that's working jobs too that right

384
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 2: now are needed in La.

385
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's been so much loss. I don't think it's

386
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 1: a bad thing to have as much business as usual

387
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 1: as you possibly can, and especially when you have the

388
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,439
Speaker 1: attention of the world, you have an opportunity to do

389
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 1: good with it, and I think they will this year.

390
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: So I'm excited to watch it. And we need to

391
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 1: get caught up in the meantime.

392
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 2: Yes, But in the meantime, on this Thursday, as you

393
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 2: go about your day, something we'd like for you to

394
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 2: consider it is our quote of the day.

395
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:52,480
Speaker 1: Walk like the king or queen you are. Walk like

396
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 1: you don't care who the king or queen is. That's

397
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 1: from you.

398
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 2: I know, I can't remember where I got it, but

399
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 2: I one of a fun one that you It's self explanatory.

400
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 2: Walk like the king and queen you are. That states

401
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,920
Speaker 2: that oftentimes we forget just what our power is, how

402
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 2: strong we are, just because of our position at work,

403
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,120
Speaker 2: position at home, our position at school. No, you are

404
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,360
Speaker 2: a king, you are a queen. So walk like that.

405
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 2: But if you're not gonna do that, or you need

406
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 2: to walk like you don't care who the king or

407
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 2: the queen is, which again it's kind of self explanatory,

408
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 2: but it kind of puts you in the right mindset,

409
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 2: in the right mood as you go about your day.

410
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 2: Sometimes just all right, I'm gonna struck my stuff. I

411
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 2: ain't the man, and I'm gonna walk like I don't

412
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 2: even care who the man is.

413
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 1: It's kind of fake it till you make it right.

414
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 1: I like that, look good, feel good. It's all a

415
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 1: very similar mentality, but it is true. How you view

416
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 1: yourself or how you think about yourself actually manifests who

417
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: you become and who you are. So I think the

418
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: mind is a powerful thing, and so I like this.

419
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 1: Go ahead, read it for us one more test.

420
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 2: Walk like the king or queen you are, or walk

421
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,360
Speaker 2: like you don't care who the king or queen is.

422
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,879
Speaker 2: And with that, folks, you enjoy your Thursday. We always

423
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 2: appreciate you running with us. We will see you back

424
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 2: here for our Friday morning.

Speaker 1: Run for now to channel and I'm Amy Roeboch. I

426
