Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ and iHeartRadio Podcast. Welcome
Speaker 1: to Morning Run. I'm Amy Robots and.
Speaker 2: I'm TJ Holmes. And on the Run, There's morning. A
Speaker 2: cease fire is an effect between Israel and Aaran. But
Speaker 2: now before they got some final blows.
Speaker 1: In and we gave up on coming up with some
Speaker 1: clever ways to describe this current heat wave. Just know
Speaker 1: it's hot as hell and hundreds of records are expected
Speaker 1: to be broken today.
Speaker 2: Also this morning, police arrest then describe a dad as
Speaker 2: a human piece of garbage for what he was doing
Speaker 2: while his child was dying in a hot car. Also
Speaker 2: fire up the deportation planes Homeland Securities response to the
Speaker 2: Supreme Court's latest ruling allowing the deportation of undocumented criminals
Speaker 2: to countries who'll accept them.
Speaker 1: And today will be the final day of testimony in
Speaker 1: the Diddy trial, as the prosecution and the defense are
Speaker 1: both set to rest their cases. Plus should we be
Speaker 1: using what if Congress doesn't even trust it?
Speaker 2: Also on the Run This Morning, Indiana Pacer superstar Tyrese
Speaker 2: Halliburn apologizes to the city of Indianapolis from his hospital bed. Also,
Speaker 2: my McRib is going to have to wait, because apparently
Speaker 2: we're supposed to be boy hunting McDonald's today, and Dolly
Speaker 2: Parton says, get your rhyin stones ready. She is returning
Speaker 2: to sen City to do something she hasn't done there
Speaker 2: in thirty years. Very exciting news for Donaphis.
Speaker 1: A lot of folks are celebrating today with that news.
Speaker 1: But we begin our morning run with a major announcement.
Speaker 1: As of this morning, a ceasefire is in effect between
Speaker 1: Israel and Iran, and this comes after a fast moving
Speaker 1: and at times confusing turn of events in the Middle
Speaker 1: East on Monday.
Speaker 2: It started with Ron launching retaliatory attacks on a US
Speaker 2: military base and cutter, which was called a very weak
Speaker 2: attack by President Trump and resulted in no casualties and
Speaker 2: had limited impact. That was followed by President Trump later
Speaker 2: in the day making an out of nowhere announcement that
Speaker 2: Iran and Israel had agreed to a ceasefire.
Speaker 1: That was followed by crickets from both Iran and Israel,
Speaker 1: who did not immediately confirm that there was in fact
Speaker 1: a ceasefire and actually kept up their missile attacks on
Speaker 1: one another in the hours after the ceasefire announcement, and
Speaker 1: in fact they kept up their attacks on each other
Speaker 1: right up until the time for the deadline to go
Speaker 1: in effect. Israel and Israelian and Ronnie and officials eventually
Speaker 1: did acknowledge agreeing to that ceasefire.
Speaker 2: President Trump, who was particularly active on social media yesterday,
Speaker 2: announced the ceasefire in a message that started congratulations to
Speaker 2: everyone that was in all caps. By the way, he
Speaker 2: said that before the ceasefire would began, Israel and Iran
Speaker 2: would wound down. They're already in progress and final mission,
Speaker 2: so that might account for some of the final blows
Speaker 2: we saw, and then Iran with cease operations first, followed
Speaker 2: by Israel doing so twelve hours later.
Speaker 1: President Trump wrote, on the assumption that everything works as
Speaker 1: it should, which it will, I would like to congratulate
Speaker 1: both countries, Israel and Iran, on having the stamina, courage,
Speaker 1: and intelligence to end what should be called the Twelve
Speaker 1: Day War. This is a war that could have gone
Speaker 1: on for years and destroyed the entire Middle East, but
Speaker 1: it didn't and never will. God bless Israel, God bless Iran,
Speaker 1: God blessed the Middle East, God blessed the United States
Speaker 1: of America, and God bless the world.
Speaker 2: We all sound like friends again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's already been a few more missiles fired.
Speaker 2: Didn't We just saw that as of this recording, folks,
Speaker 2: the ceasefire is an effect. And just moments ago we
Speaker 2: did get a word that missiles were still being lobbed
Speaker 2: at each other. Do you know who it was? Iran?
Speaker 1: Iran fired some missiles into Israel. So we'll see if
Speaker 1: the ceasefire holds. It is certainly tentative and probably changing
Speaker 1: by the minute and by the hour, So please day
Speaker 1: to his updates.
Speaker 2: In every ceasefire we cover, somebody described as a shaky ceasefire.
Speaker 1: Yes, and someone always violates it. Then the other side
Speaker 1: points the finger at the side that fired the missiles,
Speaker 1: and then they retaliate, and hopefully it will die down
Speaker 1: and eventually dissipate altogether.
Speaker 2: All Right, We're going to continue the run now with
Speaker 2: the more than two hundred and fifty record highs and
Speaker 2: record lows that could be set by the end of
Speaker 2: the day today. The record lows are only record lows
Speaker 2: because they're so high. It's so hot. It's not suppose
Speaker 2: your low for the day is not supposed to be
Speaker 2: eighty three. If you get what we're saying, Whether experts
Speaker 2: say this dangerous heat wave could reach its peak in
Speaker 2: some cities today through Wednesday, and this could go into Thursday.
Speaker 1: Folks, that's right. More than one hundred and fifty million
Speaker 1: Americans are under heat warnings as this heat dome continues
Speaker 1: to bear down on the eastern half of the US,
Speaker 1: with a level four out of four extreme heat risk,
Speaker 1: giving people zero relief, yes, even in the overnight hours.
Speaker 1: Here in New York, Central Park reached a record high
Speaker 1: of ninety six on Monday, tying a record set back
Speaker 1: in eighteen eighty eight. Today we're expected to top one
Speaker 1: hundred degrees, which last happened in July of twenty twelve,
Speaker 1: and I said July of twenty twelve, not June.
Speaker 2: Across the river there from US, more than one hundred
Speaker 2: and fifty people were evaluated for heat related illnesses and
Speaker 2: sixteen people ended up in the emergency room during graduation
Speaker 2: ceremonies in DC. Washington Monument was closed yesterday and remains
Speaker 2: closed today because of the heat, and the Midwest roads
Speaker 2: were buckling from the extreme heat, officials warning more streets
Speaker 2: may crack as the temperatures continues to stay high.
Speaker 1: Isn't that crazy to think about that. Asphalt is cracking
Speaker 1: and buckling. That's how hot it is here in the
Speaker 1: mid Atlantic. In the Northeast, trains were running slower with
Speaker 1: wires sagging in the heat. Amtrak travelers were delayed because
Speaker 1: of temperature related speed restrictions, and one stalled train in
Speaker 1: Baltimore left passengers trapped in that heat with no AC
Speaker 1: for more than an hour. And I must give you
Speaker 1: major kudos TJ, because you didn't go to bed last night,
Speaker 1: because you too were on a train headed back from
Speaker 1: Philly and were delayed massively.
Speaker 2: It was silly to pick a train that late. For
Speaker 2: sure enough, I got an alert it was going to be
Speaker 2: an hour and a half delaid in getting back at midnight.
Speaker 2: So again I pray you all forgive me. I have
Speaker 2: not had a wink of sleep this evening.
Speaker 1: Your aura score is zero.
Speaker 2: It actually is zero. I shouldn't have told people that.
Speaker 2: Now they're gonna judge me very harsh.
Speaker 1: I think they'll forgive you.
Speaker 2: Okay, maybe I needed that. We will continue the run
Speaker 2: here now we are in the middle of this heat
Speaker 2: dome phenomenon, and unfortunately, it seems every year we do
Speaker 2: hear stories on the news about kids dying after being
Speaker 2: left in a hot car. In fact, last year there
Speaker 2: were thirty nine hot car deaths involving children.
Speaker 1: And oftentimes, and most of the times, this happens when
Speaker 1: well meeting parents or caregivers make a mistake, They forget
Speaker 1: they have their child in the back seat, they forget
Speaker 1: to drop off their child where they were supposed to.
Speaker 1: In fact, the National Highway Safety Administration says that is
Speaker 1: the case in more than fifty percent of child hot
Speaker 1: car deaths. Even say the majority happened on a Thursday
Speaker 1: or a Friday, or at the end of the work week,
Speaker 1: when folks are tired and forgetful, it makes sense the Oh,
Speaker 1: but what happened in Florida is something altogether different.
Speaker 2: This is a really tough story here, folks. A dad
Speaker 2: is now facing aggravated manslaughter charges in the death of
Speaker 2: his eighteen month old son, and in announcing the charges,
Speaker 2: the police chief called the dad and I quote, a
Speaker 2: human piece of garbage. He also called him, and I quote,
Speaker 2: a lying sack of shit. This is coming from the
Speaker 2: police chief. Now. Scott Allen Gardner is the man's name.
Speaker 2: He is accused of leaving his son Sebastian in his
Speaker 2: vehicle for hours while he went to get a haircut
Speaker 2: and then went for drinks at a bar four robes
Speaker 2: three hours.
Speaker 1: I have chills from head to toe. That makes me
Speaker 1: physically ill. Get this, It was ninety degrees outside the
Speaker 1: window of the car is being described as slightly down
Speaker 1: And according to police, Gardner went for that haircut at
Speaker 1: eleven thirty am. This happened on June sixth, left his
Speaker 1: baby in the car. Then about thirty minutes later, he
Speaker 1: left the barbershop and went across the street to a
Speaker 1: lounge and drank for three hours.
Speaker 2: They were even specific in saying he drank beer and
Speaker 2: had shots while he was there. When he eventually left
Speaker 2: that bar, police say he went to his mom's house
Speaker 2: and that's where he called nine to one one. But
Speaker 2: the boy was already dead at that point, and the
Speaker 2: hospital says his body temperature was above one hundred and
Speaker 2: seven degrees.
Speaker 1: And get this, after the child's death that day earlier
Speaker 1: this month, Gardner and his mom went back to the
Speaker 1: same bar for drinks the same night his child died.
Speaker 1: Gardner is now being held without bond. And who said
Speaker 1: this quote you have at the bottom of the script.
Speaker 2: This is again with from the police chief.
Speaker 1: He said, I don't think there's a penalty on this
Speaker 1: earth that could ever fit for the crime that was committed.
Speaker 2: Here just didn't have to happen. I mean to go
Speaker 2: take him in the bar if you want to, and
Speaker 2: that's an appropriate It is not good parenting. But thats
Speaker 2: just it's completely unnested. This did not have to happen.
Speaker 2: It's eighteen month old. And the pictures, of course little
Speaker 2: blonde had big smile. They say, oh it's hard, it's
Speaker 2: just awful. But we think about how could anybody do
Speaker 2: not this? But like you always think as apparent when
Speaker 2: we had little ones, I'd never leave my kid. I'll
Speaker 2: never forget my kid in the car. And it happens
Speaker 2: to good folks. It can happen when amid your running,
Speaker 2: you a little tired, you forget, and it can happen
Speaker 2: to good people.
Speaker 1: It's usually when a change of schedule happens. We you
Speaker 1: and I have both had to have covered it. I
Speaker 1: certainly have where you normally you never do do the
Speaker 1: drop off, and then suddenly you're required, you get a
Speaker 1: phone call that redirects you forget the child in the backseat.
Speaker 1: I can understand that. But this is inexcusable and disgusting.
Speaker 2: All right, We're going to continue on the run here
Speaker 2: on this Wednesdays. It's Tuesday, on this Tuesday morning, continue
Speaker 2: on this Tuesday morning. With the Supreme Court, it is
Speaker 2: now paved the way for the Trump administration to deport
Speaker 2: convicted criminals to third countries, meaning countries that they have
Speaker 2: no connection to.
Speaker 1: Yes, the nation's highest court put on hold a federal
Speaker 1: court's ruling that allowed convicted undocumented immigrants to make the
Speaker 1: claim they would be at risk of torture, persecution, or
Speaker 1: death if they were sent to those countries. The court
Speaker 1: did not explain its reasoning, but one advocacy group said
Speaker 1: the ramifications of the Supreme Court's order will be horrifying.
Speaker 1: It strips away critical due process protections that have been
Speaker 1: protecting our class members from torture and death.
Speaker 2: The Department of Homeland Security had a different view on it,
Speaker 2: saying it was a victory for the safety and security
Speaker 2: of the American people, adding that the Department can now
Speaker 2: execute its lawful authority and remove illegal aliens there were
Speaker 2: to a country willing to accept them. Fire up the
Speaker 2: deportation planes. That is from our department of Homeland Security.
Speaker 2: Now all three liberal justices dissented in this decision.
Speaker 1: Next up on the Run, the prosecution and the defense
Speaker 1: are both expected to rest today in the Sean Diddycomb's trial.
Speaker 1: The government's final witness, a Homeland Security agent, will continue
Speaker 1: under cross examination this morning and when he finishes, prosecutors
Speaker 1: say that will rest their case.
Speaker 2: The defense says it'll rest right after that because they're
Speaker 2: not putting on any witnesses, not one. Rather, they're going
Speaker 2: to submit some exhibits and as evidence and that's it.
Speaker 2: So this is now the tentative schedule. Both sides rest
Speaker 2: today Tuesday.
Speaker 1: Yes, and attorneys and the judge will then hash out
Speaker 1: jury instructions tomorrow. Then on Thursday, closing arguments both sides
Speaker 1: are believed to be take. We'll take about four hours
Speaker 1: and then the jury is expected to get instructions and
Speaker 1: possibly start deliberating the case on Friday.
Speaker 2: This is a very important week and we do these
Speaker 2: stories day in day out, but something robes We forget
Speaker 2: dimension is what the charges are. So a refresher here
Speaker 2: to remind you what's at stake for him. He's facing
Speaker 2: five counts. One is a racketeering conspiracy count that carries
Speaker 2: a possible life sentence. He's facing two sex trafficking counts
Speaker 2: those each have a fifteen year minimum, and then two
Speaker 2: transportation to engage in prostitution counts those come with a
Speaker 2: ten year maximum.
Speaker 1: Next up on a roan a question for you, do
Speaker 1: you trust WhatsApp because Congress sure does and the messaging
Speaker 1: app is being banned on all government issued phones used
Speaker 1: by staff in the House.
Speaker 2: And the staffer has got the memo Monday from the
Speaker 2: House Chief Administrative Officer who said the app was deemed
Speaker 2: high risk to users due to the lack of transparency
Speaker 2: and how to protect user data apbsence of data encryption,
Speaker 2: and potential security risks involved with its use. That is
Speaker 2: not a ringing endorsement of WhatsApp. And not only did
Speaker 2: the memo dump on WhatsApp, it also recommended other better, safer,
Speaker 2: secure apps that are proved for use, like Wicker. I
Speaker 2: don't know that.
Speaker 1: One, Wicker, I don't know Wicker at all.
Speaker 2: Signal, Imassage, FaceTime and Teams or some that they recommend
Speaker 2: it people use.
Speaker 1: And you can imagine, Meta, who is the parent company
Speaker 1: of WhatsApp, was none too pleased with this news and
Speaker 1: responded by saying this, we disagree with the House Chief
Speaker 1: Administrative Officer's character in the strongest possible terms. We know
Speaker 1: members and their staffs regularly use WhatsApp, and we look
Speaker 1: forward to insuring members of the House can join their
Speaker 1: Senate counterparts in doing so. Officially, House staff is not
Speaker 1: allowed to download or keep the app on any House device,
Speaker 1: and if you have it now, you're going to be
Speaker 1: contacted to remove it.
Speaker 2: I assume this has to extend those in confusion about
Speaker 2: whether or not this would apply to House members themselves.
Speaker 2: It applies to the staffers. I assume we would have to.
Speaker 1: It seems like it should. Yes, it seems like that
Speaker 1: would be a blanket statement. If you're saying it's not trustworthy,
Speaker 1: then it would apply to everyone.
Speaker 2: Right, Well, folks, stay with us here on this Tuesday
Speaker 2: morning run. When we come back an apology from a
Speaker 2: hospital bed. Also, you might want to put down those
Speaker 2: McDonald's fries just for a couple of days. We'll explain
Speaker 2: why you're not supposed to be eating them this week.
Speaker 2: And Dolly is back. If you want to see her,
Speaker 2: you gotta go to vas all right, folks, let's continue
Speaker 2: on this Tuesday morning run. Next leg takes us to Indianapolis,
Speaker 2: where the Indiana Pacers confirmed what was suspected. They're superstar.
Speaker 2: Tyrese Halliburton, who was arguably the most consequential player in
Speaker 2: the playoffs this year, tore his right achilles in Game
Speaker 2: seven of the NBA Finals.
Speaker 1: It hurts me just to hear that. Oh. It happened
Speaker 1: in the first quarter of the deciding game, which Oklahoma
Speaker 1: City went on to win handily. He had already been
Speaker 1: nursing a leg injury, but was determined to play Game seven.
Speaker 1: He released a lengthy statement that was full of raw emotion.
Speaker 1: Here's part of what he said. I've worked my whole
Speaker 1: life to get to this moment, and this is how
Speaker 1: it ends. Makes no sense now that I've gotten surgery.
Speaker 1: I wish I could count the number of times people
Speaker 1: will tell me I'm gonna come back stronger. What a cliche. Lol,
Speaker 1: This shit sucks.
Speaker 2: You can see where that could come from. People just
Speaker 2: used to say saying certain things to you when you
Speaker 2: have moments and I look, I this might seem silly.
Speaker 2: I was writing this story and the one about the
Speaker 2: little boy in the car. I was in tears writing
Speaker 2: those two stories. This morning again, I having slept a
Speaker 2: little punchy and emotional, I suppose, but this really some
Speaker 2: of his words really got to me. Halliburton here he
Speaker 2: went on to say that honestly, right now, torn Achilles
Speaker 2: and all, I don't regret it. I do it again
Speaker 2: and again after that, to fight for this city and
Speaker 2: my brothers for the chance to do something special. And
Speaker 2: in this line, Indy, I'm sorry. If there's any fan
Speaker 2: base that doesn't deserve this, it's y'all. That's crazy. He's
Speaker 2: sitting there with he has a picture he posted of
Speaker 2: him in the hospital bed, and he's apologizing to a
Speaker 2: city for I guess being in the hospital, for being injured.
Speaker 2: Upside here, he is just twenty five years old. He's
Speaker 2: gonna miss a significant portion of next season, possibly the
Speaker 2: whole season. So this is a guy who's key to
Speaker 2: their championship dreams year after year, and they are good
Speaker 2: enough to be competitive and he's out, possibly for the
Speaker 2: whole year. That just sucks for him.
Speaker 1: That's devastating. But you know, hopefully there have been other
Speaker 1: success stories of people turning it around. So she knows
Speaker 1: there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Speaker 1: But it's going to be a long road, all right.
Speaker 1: Next up on our run, it's McDonald's turn to be boycotted.
Speaker 1: Today is the beginning of a so called McDonald's blackout
Speaker 1: that's supposed to last through the end of the month.
Speaker 2: And advocacy group behind this has targeted a number of
Speaker 2: companies by four abandoning DEI programs. They call it their
Speaker 2: economic Blackout Tour, which has included previous boycotts of Target
Speaker 2: and Walmart. They claim economic resistance works and just as Target.
Speaker 1: Yes, Target experienced a hefty drop in sales this year,
Speaker 1: which was attributed to a number of factors, and Target
Speaker 1: itself admitted that one of those factors was the backlash
Speaker 1: from changing their DEI policies. This is a tough spot
Speaker 1: for companies because the Trump administration is ordering one thing
Speaker 1: and then consumers are demanding another. So we shall see
Speaker 1: the impact this may have, possibly on McDonald's.
Speaker 2: We don't leave McDonald's almost ever.
Speaker 1: No, but I do love it maybe twice a year.
Speaker 2: What isn't that the slogan did you do that on purpose? Bah? Bah?
Speaker 2: Bah bah? He said, I love it? Did you do
Speaker 2: it on purpose?
Speaker 1: No? I just was speaking from the HEARTDJ from the Heart, all.
Speaker 2: Right, volks, And for the final leg of our run,
Speaker 2: we are headed to Vegas. Not figuratively this time. Really,
Speaker 2: me and Robes are going to Vegas because Dolly is
Speaker 2: going to be there. Dolly Parton, who retired from touring
Speaker 2: a decade ago, says she is coming back to the
Speaker 2: stage for a mini residency.
Speaker 1: She's going to do six concerts at Caesar's Palace later
Speaker 1: this year, and in making the announcement, she started with this,
Speaker 1: she's so cute. Grab your rhinestones. Vegas is calling and
Speaker 1: she is no stranger to Vegas. It's just been a while,
Speaker 1: like as in thirty years plus. Tickets for Dolly Live
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas go on sale on Wednesday. There's a
Speaker 1: specific time, is it ten am on Wednesday? I believe
Speaker 1: the people who are going to be on their computers
Speaker 1: ready to grab them up. Good luck everyone, because this
Speaker 1: really is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Speaker 2: She gave up she was she retired from touring, but
Speaker 2: that didn't mean she retired from performing. She just didn't
Speaker 2: want to be out in the road anymore. You know,
Speaker 2: husband will hanging out. I'm too old for this and
Speaker 2: I got too much other stuff going on, But yeah,
Speaker 2: this is really cool. There's going to be a demand
Speaker 2: for them to add more shows.
Speaker 1: I think, you know, and I think this is so
Speaker 1: cool because we all know her longtime love of sixty years,
Speaker 1: her husband of sixty years, Carl Deane, passed away in March,
Speaker 1: and so you know, I know she's talked about battling
Speaker 1: depression and dealing with the loss of the love of
Speaker 1: her life, and so this is pot you know, I
Speaker 1: think this is a beautiful way to do it, to
Speaker 1: go back to do what she's great at, to do
Speaker 1: with fans love, and just to feel all of that
Speaker 1: love on stage.
Speaker 2: I was worried, you know, that was a thing. They
Speaker 2: called that heartbreaking. Yeah, I was. It's good to see
Speaker 2: her active. This is probably very good for her to
Speaker 2: stay active in doing what she loves after she lost
Speaker 2: her love. So, Dolly, we will see you in Vegas.
Speaker 2: Before we go, though, something we'd like to leave you with.
Speaker 2: Something we'd like for you to consider as you go
Speaker 2: about your day. Our quote of the day.
Speaker 1: That's right, Worry a little bit every day and in
Speaker 1: a lifetime, you will lose a couple of years. If
Speaker 1: something is wrong, fix it. If you can but train
Speaker 1: yourself not to worry. Worry never fixes anything. That is
Speaker 1: from Ernest Hemingway, and it's the.
Speaker 2: Key to happiness if you can actually do that. You
Speaker 2: and I have done this, and you've we've seen each
Speaker 2: other evolve in this way over the years. When something happens,
Speaker 2: isn't nothing is going to change the situation by me worrying.
Speaker 1: About it, nothing at all. In fact, it's only going
Speaker 1: to bring you down and bring your energy down, and
Speaker 1: bringing your energy down changes your vibrations, which changes everything
Speaker 1: in your life. So that's right, and this is something
Speaker 1: we can all do. Just all you do is catch
Speaker 1: yourself when you're doing it. Some people call it future casting,
Speaker 1: some call it future tripping, but this really is just fature.
Speaker 2: Tripping time right over your future.
Speaker 1: Right and you're freaking out. You're spiraling over what could happen,
Speaker 1: what might happen, And most often when you look back
Speaker 1: and reflect, it never happened. It's what you didn't even
Speaker 1: worry about or think about. It comes your way and
Speaker 1: slams you up against the wall. So one more time
Speaker 1: for you, courtesy of Ernest Hemingway, worry a little bit
Speaker 1: every day and in a lifetime. You will lose a
Speaker 1: couple of years. If something is wrong, fix it if
Speaker 1: you can, but train yourself not to worry. Worry never
Speaker 1: fixes anything. And with that, thank you for running with
Speaker 1: us everyone.
Speaker 2: I'm Amy Robots and I'm DJ Holmes. Remember we will
Speaker 2: be posting a Diddy Daily update as we have been
Speaker 2: doing throughout the trial. You can look for that around
Speaker 2: what noon Eastern time, but it will be there for
Speaker 2: you as well. Appreciate you all listening as always, Talk
Speaker 2: to you soon.
