Speaker 1: Buckle up, everybody. And on the eve of his job interview,

8
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 1: RFK Junior gets the worst letter of recommendation ever and

9
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 1: it came from his cousin, Caroline Kennedy.

10
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 2: And in President Trump Newsday's Morning, two million federal employees

11
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,520
Speaker 2: get an offer from Trump. Would you take this deal?

12
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:45,520
Speaker 2: We'll explain. Also another day, another executive order, another lawsuit

13
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,199
Speaker 2: to tell you abouts. Also, the President will sign the

14
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 2: first law of his new term today.

15
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: Also on this morning's run, Kansas is facing an historic

16
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 1: tuberculosis outbreak and the drones over New Jersey mystery, Well,

17
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: that's finally been solved and the answer isn't all that exciting.

18
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 2: Also this morning, whether you're a vegetarian or a junk

19
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 2: food enthusiast, you'll need to hear about the two new

20
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 2: food recalls. And finally this morning, the internet turned on

21
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 2: Captain America yesterday say it ain't so, but he tried

22
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 2: to clear things up. Don't know if it's gonna be enough.

23
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 2: We will explain. You probably already know we talk about

24
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 2: that story was everywhere yesterday.

25
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: All Right, we begin our run though in Washington, d C.

26
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 1: And we're gonna stay there for quite a bit. It's

27
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: a long and much anticipated day on Capitol Hill. The

28
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: Robert F. Kennedy Junior confirmation hearings begin this morning and

29
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: they will continue through tomorrow.

30
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 2: So if he's confirmed, rf K Junior will become the

31
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 2: head of the Department of Health and Human Services, which

32
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 2: oversees both the FDA and the CDC. He is one

33
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 2: of the most, if not the most controversial, of President

34
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 2: Trump's nominees.

35
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: RFK Junior known for spreading misinformation surrounding vaccines, repeating those

36
00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: debunked claims that vaccines cause autism, despite rezound medical evidence

37
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: proving that they do not. He also accused the FDA

38
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: of aggressive suppression of raw milk. He drinks it. He says,

39
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 1: he only drinks raw milk, but that is the very

40
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: milk scientist worn could have dangerous bacteria that can lead

41
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: to severe illness or death.

42
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 2: N O K RFK Jr. Also wants to stop adding

43
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 2: fluoride to the water supply, which protects our dental health.

44
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 2: Kennedy claims it's tied to IQ loss and bone cancer.

45
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 2: Some health experts say they are encouraged by one of

46
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 2: Kennedy's plans to ban the hundreds of food additives and

47
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 2: chemicals that other countries have already prohibited, but.

48
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: For the most part, healthcare officials have expressed deep concern

49
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: about RFK Junior leading the department. Kennedy can only afford

50
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 1: to lose three Senate Republican votes if Democrats unanimously oppose

51
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: his confirmation, which they are expected to potentially do.

52
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and on the opposition front this morning, on this

53
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 2: next leg, there are plenty of health officials and lawmakers

54
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 2: who've opposed and said negative things about RFK Junior taking

55
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: over the Department of HHS, but none has been as

56
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 2: scathing or as close to him as the letter that

57
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 2: his own cousin wrote to senators yesterday.

58
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of former President John F. Kennedy,

59
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: wrote that she feels an obligation to speak out now

60
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 1: that her cousin has been nominated for a role that

61
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: puts him in charge of the health of the American people.

62
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: And what she had to say is frankly jaw dropping.

63
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, she said, and we're quoting here. I have known

64
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 2: Bobby my whole life. We grew up together. It's no

65
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 2: surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because

66
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 2: he himself is a predator. She then went on to

67
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 2: tell senators about his younger days of drug abuse.

68
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: Kennedy wrote, his basement, his garage, and his dorm room

69
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 1: were the centers of the action where drugs were available,

70
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: and he enjoyed showing off how he put baby chickens

71
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: and mice in the blender to feed his hawks. It

72
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: was often a perverse scene of despair and violence.

73
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 2: Okay, she was not done. She said, quote praise on

74
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 2: the desperation of parents of six children. That's how she

75
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 2: described her cousin, she said, and again, I quote vaccinating

76
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 2: his own children while building a following by hypocritically discouraging

77
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 2: other parents from vaccinating theirs. Now, she said, RFK Junior

78
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 2: has used her father and his father's assassinations for personal

79
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 2: gain and said President Kenney would be disgusted by his actions.

80
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: Kennedy ended her letter saying that the healthcare workers, from

81
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 1: the doctors to the researchers and scientists to the caregivers, quote,

82
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 1: deserve better than Bobby Kennedy. And she ended saying she

83
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: hoped the senators would agree with her and vote no

84
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 1: to confirm him. All I can say is.

85
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 2: Ouch, ouch, this is skate. You have to sit up,

86
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 2: and you have to pay attention to someone who is

87
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 2: in the family and who literally did grow up with him,

88
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 2: So that certainly makes you stop and listen. But this

89
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 2: is and for her to choose like she had it,

90
00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 2: she could have stayed out of the fight. She chose

91
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,600
Speaker 2: to put her in it the night before.

92
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 1: I was just going to say the timing of it

93
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 1: is an extra punch to the gut because this isn't

94
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 1: something that could have got lost in the news cycle.

95
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 1: She decided to drop this letter to these senators the

96
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 1: day before they were expected to hear from him directly

97
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,559
Speaker 1: and ultimately vote on his own.

98
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 2: And it had a video component, she said, a full

99
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,840
Speaker 2: video of herself sitting there talking to camera and talking

100
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 2: about her cousin. We'll see if it has any type

101
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 2: of impact. But this is must see television today and

102
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 2: an important health conversation that will be at the forefront

103
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 2: as well. We will continue on the run. Guess where

104
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 2: we're going to be DC once again where newly confirmed

105
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,160
Speaker 2: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is already taking action against a

106
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 2: perceived enemy of President Trump. Hegseth is going after retired

107
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 2: Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Miller.

108
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: Hegseth has ordered an inspector general inquiry into the general's record.

109
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: He removed his security detail, revoked his security clearance after

110
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 1: General Millie stood up to President Trump during his first term,

111
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: and when the general retired in twenty twenty three, he

112
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: told the troops at his ceremony that they quote took

113
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: an oath to the Constitution and not to a king

114
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: or a queen, or to a tyrant or dictator, and

115
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: we don't take an oath to a wanna be dictator.

116
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 2: So days before the retirement ceremony, Trump, who was planning

117
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 2: to run for reelection, suggested the general had committed treason

118
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,280
Speaker 2: and should be put to death. Last week, President Trump

119
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 2: had General Milly's portrait removed from the hallway in the Pentagon.

120
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 1: Hours before he left office last Monday, President Biden, I

121
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 1: think read the tea leaves. He gave General Milly a

122
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: preemptive pardon. He was one of his many preemptive pardons

123
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 1: that he did in those final hours during his presidency.

124
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 1: So far, there has been no comment from the general.

125
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 2: As crazy as this story seems, we all look at

126
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 2: it and go, eh, this seems about right.

127
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: I mean, he's doing what he said he was going

128
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: to do.

129
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: No surprise is here. We'll continue the run here and

130
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 2: we would folks, really, we have tried to find a

131
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 2: way to clear up the confusion surrounding President Trump's proposed

132
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 2: federal funding frees, but we can't and it seems like

133
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 2: nobody else can clear this up either.

134
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: Okay, So for now here is where we are. That

135
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 1: proposed pause in federal assistance has been put on hold

136
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: by a federal judgment. Pause has been put on hold.

137
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 1: The confusion started early in the day when word came

138
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 1: that the Trump administration would halt federal loans, grants and

139
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: other assistants. The administration said this would only be a

140
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: pause to review spending in government agencies to ensure that

141
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: spending was in line with Trump's agenda.

142
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 2: However, the administration was light on details, even light on

143
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 2: saying how long they thought this pause might last. So

144
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 2: this sent everybody in the country that depends on federal

145
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 2: funding into a frenzy. So who depends on federal funding? Everybody,

146
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 2: school districts, community based organizations, universities, researchers, nonprofits, students, everybody

147
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 2: just about out there, and we're talking about trillions of

148
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 2: dollars in federal assistance.

149
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 1: The White House tried to calm fears and clarify some

150
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: things later in the day by saying that Social Security, Medicare,

151
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: and Medicaid would not be impacted. Small businesses, head start

152
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 1: pell grants, student loans, farmers, and anyone receiving direct assistants

153
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: were also supposed to be exempt.

154
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 2: But you see the confusion now. They said there's this

155
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 2: federal pause on spending, but then they listed fifty things

156
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 2: that are exempts. So people are wondering, am I on

157
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 2: the exempt list? It was complete chaos. It hasn't been

158
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 2: cleared up yet, but several nonprofit groups that depend on

159
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 2: federal money sued, and just minutes before that freeze was

160
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 2: to go into place, a federal judge blocked it. So

161
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 2: the judge put a pause on implementation of the federal

162
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 2: pause until Monday, that is when we have a hearing

163
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 2: scheduled on the matter. And also more than twenty attorneys

164
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 2: general have also sued over the federal freeze. This was

165
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 2: amazing to watch yesterday and we kind of watched in

166
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 2: real time when Carolyn Levitt came out did her first

167
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 2: press conference as the new White House President. That was

168
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 2: a doozy And those were some of the first questions

169
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 2: she got. And she didn't have all the answers.

170
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 1: No, no, she didn't. And you know, remember what I

171
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 1: said about attorneys having this is like their heyday. These

172
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: next four years, attorneys are going to be very busy,

173
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 1: all right. Next up in Iran. Guess where we're staying DC.

174
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 1: In DC, the President expected to use his pen on

175
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 1: something other than an executive order today when he signs

176
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: the first piece of legislation of his new administration.

177
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 2: The schedule to sign the Lacan Riley Act into law,

178
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 2: which calls for the deportation of an undocumented immigrant accused

179
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 2: of certain crimes like theft, was swiftly passed by the

180
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 2: Republican Congress and gave President Trump an early victory that

181
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 2: he wanted on an issue that he's been focused on. Immigration.

182
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: The lacln Riley Act is named after the University of

183
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 1: Georgia student killed last year while she was out on

184
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: a run. An undocumented migrant was later convicted of her murder. So, yes,

185
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: this is a big when for Trump and for a

186
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,439
Speaker 1: lot of folks who are pushing for this.

187
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 2: All right, we'll stay with us here on this very

188
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 2: busy Wednesday edition of your Morning Run. When we come back, Well,

189
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 2: Anthony Mackie, he is the new Captain America and already

190
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 2: he is getting off to a very very rough start.

191
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 2: To stay with us. We continue now on this Wednesday

192
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 2: Morning Run and a lot of changes, confusion, chaos, and

193
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 2: uncertainty coming out of DC right now.

194
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 1: So federal employees were told last night you don't like it,

195
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 1: you can quit, but they can get a parting gift

196
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: of six months severance. A couple million federal employees all

197
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: got an email yesterday explaining they're being offered a buyout, or,

198
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: as they put it, a deferred resignation.

199
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 2: The email even came with a sample resignation letter. And

200
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,439
Speaker 2: check out the White House statement about the deferred resignation

201
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 2: offers and I quote, American taxpayers pay for the salaries

202
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 2: of federal government employees and therefore deserve employees working on

203
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 2: their behalf who actually show up to work in our

204
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 2: wonderful federal buildings, also paid for by taxpayers. That statement

205
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 2: goes on to say, if they don't want to work

206
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 2: in the office and contribute to making America great again,

207
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 2: then they are free to choose a different line of work,

208
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 2: and the Trump administration will provide a very generous payout

209
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 2: of eight months.

210
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 1: Nearly two million full time federal employees have the option

211
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: to leave by February six, then get paid their full

212
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 1: salary and benefits through the end of September. The administration

213
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 1: expects up to ten percent of federal employees to take

214
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 1: that deal and says it could save the federal government

215
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 1: one hundred billion dollars.

216
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 2: Those employees who wish to remain were also given this

217
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 2: head's up robes quote. At this time, we cannot give

218
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 2: you full assurance regarding the certainty of your position or agency,

219
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 2: but should your position be eliminated, you will be treated

220
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,679
Speaker 2: with dignity and will be afforded the protections in place

221
00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,120
Speaker 2: for such positions. Stay at your own risk.

222
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,079
Speaker 1: Wow, is what it says. Well, I do you decide

223
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 1: whether or not that buyout works for you? And if

224
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: you can get another job? Yeah, next up on our run. Well,

225
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: guess where we're staying. Dc bial's routine at this point.

226
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: Trump signs an executive order one day, he sued over

227
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 1: it the next day. And that is the case for

228
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: the order he signed on Monday, which spans transgender people

229
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:22,199
Speaker 1: from serving in the military.

230
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 2: That would have reversed Biden administration pology, which permitted transgender

231
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 2: service members to serve openly. But yesterday advocacy groups fought

232
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 2: a lawsuit on behalf of several current transgender service members,

233
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 2: claiming that the executive order, in their words, slams the

234
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 2: door in the face of qualified patriots who meet every standard.

235
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,680
Speaker 1: A court hearing is not yet scheduled on the matter,

236
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 1: but you'll remember the order calls for the Pentagon to

237
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: end what it has said is invented identification based pronoun

238
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: usage and says that a man's assertion that he is

239
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 1: a woman and his requirement that others honor this falsehood

240
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: is not consistent with the humility and selflessness required of

241
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,680
Speaker 1: a service member. The military does not keep official data

242
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: on just how many transgender service members serve these days,

243
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 1: but certainly this is going to be up for debate

244
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: and the courts will have to decide.

245
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 2: Add them to the folks who are in limba. How

246
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 2: many folks who are in limba? A lot of funs.

247
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 2: He signs and order says you can't serve. A lawsuit

248
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 2: is now in place. It tries to get you to

249
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 2: keep serving, so you actually don't know where you're going

250
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 2: to end up, and you might not know for a while.

251
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 1: I feel like that's a big theme here now in DC.

252
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 2: Uncertain, Isn't it crazy? Trump put the band in place

253
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 2: on transgender serving in the military when his first turn. Yes,

254
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 2: Biden came back and did away with that and now

255
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 2: comes back and puts his original one back in place.

256
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's tough.

257
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 2: We continue to run this morning, but hey, how about this,

258
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 2: we continue to run somewhere other than d C. Let's

259
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 2: head over to New Jersey, where we have the mystery solved.

260
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 2: We finally have an official answer from our government about

261
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 2: those unidentified drones that had folks in New Jersey all

262
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 2: worked up last year. Well, according to the White House,

263
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 2: the drones mostly had the government meant okay to be there.

264
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: Yes, the new White House Press Secretary Carolyn Levitt told

265
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,079
Speaker 1: reporters after research and study, the drones that were flying

266
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: over New Jersey in large numbers were authorized to be

267
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: flown by the FAA for research and various other reasons.

268
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: She added some of the drones were also private individuals

269
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 1: who just love flying drones. She also said there was

270
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 1: a lot of curiosity that added to the problem.

271
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, the FBI actually got some five thousand reports of

272
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 2: drones or UFO sidings in November and December. Most of

273
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 2: those were in New Jersey, but other states along the

274
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 2: East Coast also had reports of drone sidings. At one point,

275
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 2: the FAA even issued flight restrictions over some areas in

276
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 2: an attempt to calm the frenzy. Again, we did that

277
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 2: story so much. You were really worked up, upset with

278
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 2: the government. Say, hey, you're all keeping something from us.

279
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 2: We've been waiting for an answer, and the answer was yeah.

280
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: We even had lawmakers saying that it was like an

281
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: Iranian mother ship. Oh yeah, flying drones to spy on us. Apparently,

282
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 1: what I believe Carolyn said was there. This was not

283
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: the work of our enemy. Yes, yes, all right. Next

284
00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 1: up on the round, we're gonna head to Kansas, where

285
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: that state is now facing one of the largest recorded

286
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: tuberculosis outbreaks in US history.

287
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 2: The sixty seven confirmed cases now of active TV another

288
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 2: seventy nine cases of latent TB. They put it that way,

289
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 2: which means patients are symptomless and not contagious, but they

290
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 2: are at risk for developing an active infection. So far,

291
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 2: two people have died in this outbreak. Both occurred last year,

292
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 2: when the outbreak officially began.

293
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: Now, health officials say the risks to people living nearby

294
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 1: is very low, but the CDC is closely monitoring a

295
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: situation because it is growing. They actually use the word swelling.

296
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: TB is one of the world's leading infectious disease killers.

297
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: It spreads in the air from person to person. When

298
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 1: someone infected coughs, speaks, or.

299
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 2: Sinks, sings. They throw that in there, Yeah.

300
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 1: They did you go to church?

301
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 2: You go?

302
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, like you're around people who were singing or speaking

303
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: loud Like, yes.

304
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 2: You are at risk well, According to the CDC, symptoms

305
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 2: include a cough that lasts for three weeks or longer,

306
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 2: chest pain, weakness, fatigue, weight loss, we appetite, fever, chills,

307
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 2: night sweats. Doesn't it always sound like those are the

308
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 2: symptoms to everything that's an issue? Okay, there are several

309
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 2: treatments for TV that last from four to nine months.

310
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 2: But this is I was saying this to you this morning.

311
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 2: I say, yeah, there are headlines right now about tuberculosis.

312
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 2: I think maybe we should include it. You came back

313
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 2: a short time later. It's the worst in history.

314
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: Yes we shoulding, Yes, yes, I think we should just

315
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 1: mention that to folks. All right. Next up on the run,

316
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: we have some recalls to tell you about. First, the

317
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: FDA has announcer recall of broccoli floorre It's sold in

318
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 1: Walmart stores across twenty states.

319
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 2: And this is at the FDA's highest risk level one,

320
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 2: which means there's a reasonable probability that the use of

321
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 2: or exposure to the product will cause serious adverse health

322
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 2: consequences or death. The concern is listeria contamination after the

323
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 2: bacteria was discovered in washed and ready to eat market

324
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 2: side broccoli forets by Braga Fresh.

325
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 1: Yes, when it says washed and ready to eat, now,

326
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: I just wash it again in any way and then

327
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: it's ready to eat yet.

328
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 2: But haven't they told us in the past that you're

329
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 2: good to go? If it says why.

330
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, But you know what, I've seen enough of this

331
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 1: ready to eat stuff being recalled. Why not just go

332
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: ahead and take the extra step. By the way, So,

333
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 1: the concern is listeria, and it can cause serious and

334
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 1: sometimes fatal infections, especially in children, the elderly, anyone who's pregnant,

335
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 1: anyone with a weekend immune system. But the good news

336
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,120
Speaker 1: is the product is now past its best if used

337
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,679
Speaker 1: by date, so it's not in stores. But the concern

338
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 1: is that it could be in your refrigerator or your freezers.

339
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 1: And you can find out all of the details on

340
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 1: the recall, including that important list of states affected because

341
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 1: twenty of them are affected. Just go to the FDA website.

342
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 2: All right, So next up on the run is the

343
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 2: next recall to tell you about. The FDA reissued or

344
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 2: recall for Lays potato chips now giving it the highest

345
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 2: risk level as well.

346
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: That's right, it's the bags of thirteen ounce Lays Classic

347
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 1: potato chips sold in Oregon and Washington State. It could

348
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 1: contain undeclared milk. It's not listed on the packaging. But

349
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: the big concern our milk allergies. Hh.

350
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, Nearly five million Americans suffer from them, and it's

351
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 2: the third most common food to cause anaphylaxis, which is

352
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 2: a life threatening reaction where your throat narrows and can

353
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 2: block your breathing.

354
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: It's so scary. Up to one thousand people die each

355
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 1: year in this country from anaphylaxis. These chip bags have

356
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 1: a guaranteed fresh date of February eleventh, twenty twenty five.

357
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 1: They were available as early as November third of last year,

358
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: So everyone please check your bags of ladies.

359
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 2: Okay, And on this very busy morning run, we like

360
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,719
Speaker 2: to do our last story that could be of lighter flare,

361
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 2: maybe something that makes you feel good. It started out

362
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 2: that way. We're just going to talk about a new

363
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 2: movie coming out. An actor we love a character. We

364
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 2: love Anthony Mackie, Captain America. New movie coming out. That's exciting.

365
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good thing. We love him and how cool.

366
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 2: But damn Anthony Anthony Mackie. Hah, he's stepped in it.

367
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 2: The actor who was taking over as the new Captain

368
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 2: America has put out a statement trying to calm people

369
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 2: down and clarify his viral comments that had people comment

370
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 2: for him.

371
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:05,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, what did he say in the first place? They

372
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 1: got people so worked up? Well, Mackie was asked what

373
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: playing the iconic character means to him. Seems like an

374
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: innocuous question. This was all during a press event in Rome.

375
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: Here was part of his answer, and I'm going.

376
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 2: To read it precisely as he said it, and I

377
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 2: quote for me, Captain America represents a lot of different things,

378
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 2: and I don't think the term America should be one

379
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 2: of those representations. It's about a man who keeps his word,

380
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 2: who has honor, dignity and integrity, who is trustworthy and dependable.

381
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,680
Speaker 2: It's kind of like an aspect of a dream coming true.

382
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 1: Ooh, so he's saying that's not America. No, no, but

383
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 1: that is what the inference is. He continued by describing

384
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 1: a kid playing outside pretending to slay a dragon and

385
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: save a princess, only to find out later that there

386
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: was no princess and no dragon. Then Mackie said, so,

387
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:55,919
Speaker 1: as an actor, I feel like our job is to

388
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 1: get back to that day. We see that dragon, and

389
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 1: we slay that dragon and save that princess. That's what

390
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:02,679
Speaker 1: this movie was for me.

391
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 2: Okay, yes he said all that, but the main thing

392
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 2: to row a point that people focused on was his

393
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 2: line that said Captain America represents a lot of different things,

394
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 2: and I don't think the term America should be one

395
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 2: of those representations. That is the quote that's going everywhere,

396
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 2: and that clip spread quickly online. The criticism was immediate,

397
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 2: including from many conservatives crying wokeness or that patriotism was

398
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 2: under attack.

399
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: Again, and the criticism got so intense intense that Mackie

400
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 1: actually put out a statement on Instagram to try and

401
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 1: clear things up. He said, let me be clear about this.

402
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: I am a proud American and taking on the shield

403
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 1: of a hero like Captain America is the honor of

404
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 1: a lifetime. I have the utmost respect for those who

405
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 1: serve and have served our country. Captain America has universal

406
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 1: characteristics that people all over the world can relate to.

407
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 1: If he had only just said that, but what he

408
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 1: said was it doesn't represent America. And then when he

409
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 1: went on to describe what it represented, it was all

410
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 1: the things that I think a lot of people think

411
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 1: America does stand for.

412
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 2: And sometimes Captain America in the comics and even in

413
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 2: the movies. He represents what America should be, or has

414
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 2: the potential to be, or what it should aim to be,

415
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 2: and what it not always is. Now you can have

416
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 2: that conversation, sure, in one short clip, if the guy,

417
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 2: the black guy taking over as Captain America from the

418
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,439
Speaker 2: white Captain America that we love Steve Rodgers. Don't get

419
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 2: me wrong, everybody loved him playing that role, the one

420
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 2: we had. But already you had some people going, if

421
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 2: you have any time a black character takes over for

422
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 2: a character that has been historically white, whether that's.

423
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,240
Speaker 1: Aerial, yeah, made right, that was the most recent one.

424
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 2: If you change the gender on the character, right.

425
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,919
Speaker 1: Whatever, even Hamilton, whatever you do, people will take issue

426
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:50,199
Speaker 1: with it.

427
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 2: They were looking for a reason to hate this movie.

428
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 2: He gave them one. Well, I game a little opening.

429
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: Look, I get it, I mean I get why people

430
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: feel upset about it, because he is Captain America and

431
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 1: that character, I would think, by his name alone, is

432
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 1: representing America and the best of it and its ideals

433
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: and its aspirations. And so it kind of took that

434
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 1: away by saying it doesn't. And that is a slap

435
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,919
Speaker 1: in the face to people who love that character and

436
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 1: love this country.

437
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,439
Speaker 2: But we have an issue with what we all think

438
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 2: America is right now or should be, as probably the veterans.

439
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 1: He shouldn't have step He did step in it. He

440
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: stepped in it, and now he's trying to step out

441
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: of it. And it's hard to do that.

442
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 2: But I don't know if that well, he stepped in

443
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 2: it because you know what's online on the line. This

444
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 2: is a two hundred million dollar budgeted movie, another one

445
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:39,159
Speaker 2: hundred million probably in.

446
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 1: Promotion and his ability to have other leads. If you

447
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: have half of America angry at you.

448
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,120
Speaker 2: He's already slated to be in others.

449
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens.

450
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,360
Speaker 2: I mean, come on, but Anthony, well, we've had experience

451
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 2: with him, so we love this brother.

452
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: He's amazing.

453
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 2: So we love him and not suggesting he did something

454
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 2: wrong by what he said. But if we had him

455
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,919
Speaker 2: personally one on one and they come on, man, yeah,

456
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 2: wow do that, they're gonna come after you. We get

457
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 2: what you're saying, but come on.

458
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: Bro, Yeah, it's it's it's tough, and it's you know what,

459
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 1: in these times with social media, you can't unsay things.

460
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 1: It's really hard to unsay things.

461
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:20,160
Speaker 2: But that movie is coming out Valentine's Day. Now, I'm

462
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,439
Speaker 2: I didn't plan on going through the theaters. Now I

463
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:24,159
Speaker 2: can't wait to get it.

464
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 1: Maybe you should ask your date you're Valentine, oh, what

465
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,159
Speaker 1: she wants to do on Valentin on Valentine's Day? Okay,

466
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: all right, all right, all right, all.

467
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 2: Right, folks, on this Wednesday, as you go about your day,

468
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 2: something we'd like for you to consider it is our

469
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 2: quote of the day.

470
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:42,200
Speaker 1: Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything

471
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: we see is a perspective, not the truth. That is

472
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 1: from the Great Marcus Aurelius. We just watched Gladiator, too,

473
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 1: so I was kind of in the movie and I

474
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 1: thought i'd go back. And he's such an amazing when

475
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: you go back and look at all of his quotes,

476
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,879
Speaker 1: I love almost all of them. So I thought it

477
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 1: would be a good day to bring one of them

478
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 1: out of the vault.

479
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 2: I take issue with the first line. I'm not gonna

480
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 2: take the issue with anything Marcus really to say. But

481
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 2: everything we hear is an opinion.

482
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 1: It's usually laced with opinions or comes from your perspective.

483
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 2: What he's saying. Yeah, everything we see is a perspective. Now.

484
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 2: I get that, because you and I could be looking

485
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,400
Speaker 2: across the street at the exact same thing, and our

486
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 2: perspective causes us to see those two things differently. We've

487
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:28,679
Speaker 2: had a lot of those experiences, so I get that.

488
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,719
Speaker 1: I think what I like about this quote is that

489
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 1: it just reminds us all that the world is not

490
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 1: black and white. There are so many shades of gray,

491
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,639
Speaker 1: and we just need to be more open minded. And

492
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 1: I think that's maybe a good thing to think about

493
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: in these times.

494
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,199
Speaker 2: All right, So there it is again, folks. Everything we

495
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,880
Speaker 2: hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see

496
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 2: as a perspective not the truth. And with that, we

497
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,680
Speaker 2: appreciate you as always running with us. We will see

498
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 2: you back here tomorrow as well. And Chris Evans, I

499
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:56,479
Speaker 2: was struggling trying to come up with the actor's name.

500
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 2: It was Chris Evans.

501
00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: Chris Evans. Yes, yes, yes, of course this just hit.

502
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 2: I wasn't even trying to think of that. Oh that's

503
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:02,399
Speaker 2: what it was.

504
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:06,920
Speaker 1: When you relax your brain, the answer is it's true, though, Just.

505
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 2: Relax your brain, folks. What we appreciate you running with us.

506
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 2: And a reminder we are now guaranteed this morning run

Speaker 2: I'm TJ. Holmes to you, by the way.

513
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,439
Speaker 1: You've said that already. Yes, I say Chris Evans, but

514
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 1: you had said your name first.
