1
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: What does that have to do with him punching her?

2
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:10,720
Speaker 1: What's love got to do with that? That quote from

3
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 1: Judge Andrew Carter, presiding over the bail hearing of Sean

4
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:16,720
Speaker 1: Diddy Combs, Hello to you all.

5
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:21,080
Speaker 2: I'm Teajing Holmes and I'm Amy Roboch. It's Thursday, September nineteenth.

6
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 2: Happy you could come along for our morning run.

7
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:28,520
Speaker 1: And on today's run, Diddy denied again. Also, a government

8
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: shutdown is back on the table, and this time it's

9
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: walkie talkies exploding across Lebanon.

10
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 2: Plus one of the most influential unions decides to sit

11
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:44,480
Speaker 2: out the presidential election, and the Fed goes big. Also,

12
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 2: US passport's getting easier, and want to know the date

13
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 2: of your death?

14
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 3: Well, there's an app for that.

15
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 1: But we start out on the first leg of our

16
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: run with this. Sean Combs remains in jail. Getting out

17
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,639
Speaker 1: doesn't appear in his immediate future. For the second day

18
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: in a row, Shawn Colmes was unable yesterday to convince

19
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: a judge a different judge at this time, to let

20
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: him out of jail while he awaits trial on federal

21
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: charges related to running a criminal enterprise.

22
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 2: Did he offered to put up fifty million dollars. He

23
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 2: offered to wear a monitor, he offered to give up

24
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,039
Speaker 2: his phone and the Internet. He offered to have twenty

25
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 2: four to seven private security monitoring, and he offered to

26
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 2: not have any female visitors.

27
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: Didn't matter. Judge said no, said no to everything, said

28
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 1: it was all insufficient, and there was no condition that

29
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 1: assured that Combs wouldn't obstruct justice, agreeing with prosecutors that

30
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: Combs is a flight risk and also that he has

31
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 1: a danger to the community. So what are Didity's options now?

32
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 2: Well, as attorney says he will now take this to

33
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 2: the District Court of Appeals, but no word on if

34
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 2: or when that might actually happen, and as of right

35
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 2: now did he will stay in jail, not his luxury

36
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 2: home in Miami until his trial.

37
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: And where he is staying is the absolute opposite of luxury.

38
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: His attorney's asking that he'd be moved from the horrific

39
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: conditions they call it at the notorious Metropolitan Detention Center

40
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: in Brooklyn. They want to move to a facility in

41
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: New Jersey, but the judge essentially said that ain't my problem, said,

42
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: you'll need to go to the Bureau of prisons. They're

43
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: the ones that handle where prisoners are kept. Do need

44
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: to note here this facility, yes, this attention facility where

45
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: Diddy's being held, has been described as hell on Earth.

46
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 1: It has in fact had a ton of legitimate and

47
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 1: documented issues for years with corruption at that facility, violence

48
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 1: and even death thropes.

49
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 2: Well, Diddy is facing a three count indictment and it

50
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 2: includes charges of racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage

51
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 2: in prostitution. Prosecutors are alleging that over a decade of abuse, assaults, intimidation, kidnapping,

52
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 2: sex trafficking, bribery, among other crimes, all took place by

53
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 2: Ditty and his associates. Now, prosecutors say Combs ran a

54
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 2: criminal enterprise that helped to fulfill his sexual desires through coercing, drugging,

55
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 2: and threatening women.

56
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 1: Well, something in the court room yesterday they got a

57
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: lot of people's attention and a lot of people took note.

58
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 1: There was an exchange during the bail hearing between Comb's

59
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 1: lawyer and the judge. They were discussing the horrific hotel

60
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 1: surveillance video. A lot of you all have seen it,

61
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: which did he has seen? Chasing his then girlfriend Cassie

62
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 1: Ventura down a hallway, kicking her repeatedly while she was

63
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: down on the ground, drags her down the hallway as

64
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 1: well well. His lawyers have characterized that as something of

65
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: a lover's quarrel over infidelity and involved intense emotions, as

66
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 1: he put it, to which the judge said this, and

67
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: I quote, what does that have to do with him

68
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: punching her throwing a vase at her? What's love got

69
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: to do with that? End quote. Of course, Diddy is

70
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: now facing fifteen years to life in prison if convicted

71
00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: on these charges. But the judge wasn't by the case

72
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: that this man is not dangerous because what we're seeing

73
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: in the video is what lawyer's saying. That's just two

74
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: lovers working something out, and it is no evidence of

75
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: sex trafficking or intimidation or anything else, was the argument.

76
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: Judge didn't buy it for a second.

77
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think anyone who's seen the video is

78
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 2: buying that as well. That was violence, and that was

79
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 2: anything but a lover's quarrel. It didn't look like a

80
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,799
Speaker 2: fair fight at all, and certainly is evidence you can't refute.

81
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: And to your point, there, to all of us we

82
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 1: don't have to speculate. Diddy himself came out and put

83
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 1: out a statement apologizing for what we saw in the video.

84
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 2: Well, there was certainly much more to come on that.

85
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 2: In the meantime, though, we're going to continue our run

86
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 2: in Washington, d C. With a looming government shutdown. If

87
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 2: you didn't know it, there are just twelve days before

88
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 2: the money runs out for the federal government, and a

89
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 2: handful of House Republicans voted down their own funding bill

90
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 2: to try and stave off that shutdown, and that bill

91
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 2: was backed by former President Trump. Plan called to extend

92
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 2: funding at the current spending levels for the next six months,

93
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 2: so it's a stopgap. But here's the deal. They linked

94
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 2: it with the Save Act, That is legislation that would

95
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 2: require people to show proof of citizenship before they're able

96
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 2: to register to vote.

97
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: Okay, so you old piece this together. Games are being

98
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 1: played once again. This vote was two of two to two.

99
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,279
Speaker 1: Twenty fourteen Republicans voted against the package, three Democrats voted

100
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: for it. The Senate is going to give it a go.

101
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 1: We got a government shut down coming on October first.

102
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: You always hear about what that's going to do to

103
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: the economy. What that's going to do to your wallet,

104
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: what's that's going to do to people's households. But we

105
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 1: always play this game, it seems robed every single time around,

106
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 1: and they get right up to the brink and then

107
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: save us all from disaster. But we know it would

108
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: be disastrous for them. They're crazy, but they ain't this crazy.

109
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 1: The election is coming, nobody wants to be taking responsibility

110
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 1: for shutting down the government right before voters go vote.

111
00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 3: But here's the interesting thing.

112
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 2: Trump has re iterated this to all Republicans that he

113
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 2: wants Republicans to shut down the government, to defund the

114
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 2: government unless the Save Act that he has been backing

115
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:12,919
Speaker 2: becomes law.

116
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 3: Here's the problem.

117
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 2: Democrats say they will only accept a clean funding patch

118
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 2: that means nothing attached to the funding, which means that

119
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 2: they all oppose the Save Act. And here's what Democrats

120
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 2: say about that. It's already illegal and rare for non

121
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 2: citizens to vote, so they don't want this added to

122
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 2: a funding bill, which we see happen all the time

123
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 2: in Congress. It's not just about funding the government. It's

124
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 2: about each party trying to get certain things they want

125
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 2: passed attached to the funding bill when the deadline is looming.

126
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,239
Speaker 3: It's a game of chicken, so to speak.

127
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: Okay, let's do that right before the election. Fella, sure thing.

128
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: Where are we headed next on the next lego Rod?

129
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 3: Yeah?

130
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 2: Well, the Fed went big, slashing interest rates by half

131
00:06:58,120 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 2: a point. We talked about this yesterday. It was either

132
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 2: going to be a quarter point or a half point.

133
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 2: They chose the larger of the two. This marks the

134
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 2: first rate cut in more than four years, and what

135
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 2: it's going to eventually mean is that it will cost

136
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 2: you less to borrow money on everything from mortgages to

137
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 2: car loans and credit card debts.

138
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: We've seen these interest rates at an all time not

139
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: quite an all time high, but a twenty three year high.

140
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: Up until this point, the Fed started raising rates aggressively

141
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 1: try to curb the rapid pace of inflation. This was

142
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 1: all during the COVID nineteen pandemic, so we haven't seen

143
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: the Fed make a move at all since the pandemic.

144
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: But this was a dramatic cut. But it's so dramatic

145
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: robes we say that, but this might just be the beginning.

146
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 2: That's right, the Central Bak saying it wasn't just what

147
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 2: they did yesterday. It's what they're going to be doing

148
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 2: in November and December. They are going to make more

149
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 2: cuts in these final two meetings, and a lot of

150
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 2: people looking forward to that, including the markets.

151
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 3: They reacted positively yesterday.

152
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 2: Both the Dow Jones and the S and P five

153
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 2: hundred hit all time highs in trading. We'll see what

154
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 2: today bring.

155
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 1: So the markers are doing well, let's shut down the

156
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: government right Roopes Lake. Since're going to continue on the

157
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: run now again a follow up to a store from

158
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 1: yesterday where we were talking about pagers, we're now talking

159
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 1: about walkie talkies, more deadly blasts over southern Bay Aru.

160
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: This is now a day after all those pagers used

161
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 1: by members of the militant group has blah exploded, hundreds

162
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: of them across two countries. But now walkie talkies used

163
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: by the group detonated yesterday on Wednesday, and several of

164
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 1: those blasts happened at a funeral for three HESBELA members

165
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: and an eleven year old child that was killed in

166
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: Tuesday's pager blasts.

167
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 2: Right, so yesterday's blast, twenty people were killed, another four

168
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty injured. Of course, this following Tuesday's attack

169
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 2: that left twelve dead and nearly three thousand others injured

170
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 2: after those pagers carried by Hesbela members simultaneously exploded. Now

171
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 2: it's widely believed that Israel is responsible. They have not

172
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 2: made an official statement on this for both of those attacks,

173
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,839
Speaker 2: and now we have Hesbela vowing revenge, and there are

174
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,959
Speaker 2: real fears now that this conflict that we've seen simmering

175
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 2: for so long now could actually escalate into an all

176
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 2: out war, especially considering that those blasts killed an enormous

177
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 2: amount of civilians and some children, and that's all been

178
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,959
Speaker 2: reported following these explosions, which is certainly raising the level

179
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 2: of anger and tragedy across that area.

180
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: It's still incredible to think that the only reason that

181
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 1: has Belah turned to pages in walkie talkies were because

182
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: they were trying to do something to protect themselves from

183
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 1: being monitored by other agents, by other countries, by Israel

184
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: in particular. And it turns out that those things are

185
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 1: the exact things that were used to attack Hezbela in

186
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:50,719
Speaker 1: the very unprecedented but also an effective way, all out

187
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: of fear that Israel was going to track its members.

188
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: But to say with us here. Our morning run is

189
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: going to continue coming up now. The government is going

190
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: to do you a favor and you're going to actually

191
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: appreciate what your government is doing for you.

192
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 2: Stay with us, Welcome back everyone, and next up on

193
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,200
Speaker 2: our run this morning. You know, we don't get to

194
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 2: say this every day and actually mean it. Your government

195
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:27,599
Speaker 2: is going to make things easier for you, in particular

196
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 2: you US travelers.

197
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 1: How well you can now renew your passport online? Yes,

198
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: totally online. The new program just launched yesterday. It's going

199
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,559
Speaker 1: to allow you to upload photos, fill out the application,

200
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 1: pay and send documents. Yes, all online. Problem you first

201
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 1: time applicants, are you still going to need to do

202
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 1: it by mail? Kids aren't eligible either to renew online.

203
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: But the State Department estimates to about five million people

204
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 1: we'll be using this service per year. This is great.

205
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 1: Don't have to make that appointment, don't have to send

206
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,839
Speaker 1: all that stuff in and waite and wonder. This is great.

207
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so great. I've just went through this with

208
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 3: my youngest daughter.

209
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 2: You know, every time you finally get the appointment you

210
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 2: need at the US Postal Service, there's something you didn't

211
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,959
Speaker 2: have that you were supposed to get that you're running out,

212
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 2: then you got to make a second appointment.

213
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,839
Speaker 3: It's never just as easy, at least for me as

214
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 3: one stop shopping.

215
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,599
Speaker 2: So this is going to be a huge amount of

216
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 2: ease and convenience for so many of us.

217
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 3: I love.

218
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 2: This is an interesting, interesting fact. According to the State Department,

219
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 2: forty eight percent of Americans now have passports. This is

220
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 2: as of twenty twenty three, up from five percent in

221
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,839
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety. That is a remarkable thing. Here is a

222
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 2: little bit of the rub though. Just want to let

223
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 2: everyone know, even though it's going to be convenient for

224
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 2: you to renew it, you still have the same processing time.

225
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 2: It is still six to eight weeks to get that

226
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 2: passport to travel over rod.

227
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 1: You know, guys, that's our bad. We didn't stack and

228
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 1: write this story correctly because we inded on bad news.

229
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: We gave them good news. This is great. Your government's

230
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 1: helping you. Oh yeah, still going to take eight weeks.

231
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 3: We've got a plan ahead.

232
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, we should have led with. We should have put

233
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 1: that higher up and ended on something positive. So that's

234
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,559
Speaker 1: our bad. We're gonna do better tomorrow, all.

235
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 3: Right, next time, next time.

236
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 2: But in the meantime, next up on our run, an

237
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:20,119
Speaker 2: influential labor union is breaking from tradition in presidential endorsements

238
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 2: and has decided to not endorse anyone. The International Brotherhood

239
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 2: of Teamster says it's not going to endorse former President

240
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 2: Trump and it's not going to endures Vice President Kamala Harris,

241
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 2: which will be the first time since nineteen ninety six

242
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 2: that the union has basically opted out.

243
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 1: So why are they doing it now? According to the

244
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: president of the Teamsters Union, Sean O'Brien, this is why. Quote, Unfortunately,

245
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 1: neither major candidate was able to make serious commitments to

246
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 1: our union to ensure the interests of working people are

247
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: always put before big business. We saw commitments from both

248
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: Trump and Harris not to interfere in critical union campaigns

249
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 1: or core Teamsters industries, and to honor our members' rights

250
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 1: to strike, but were unable to secure those packages. The Teamsters,

251
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,079
Speaker 1: it should be worth noting, endorsed Biden.

252
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,560
Speaker 2: Last time around, right, But if you take a look

253
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 2: at where the numbers fell in terms of where the

254
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 2: union members voted, sixty percent, roughly about sixty percent of

255
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 2: its members wanted the union to endorse former President Trump

256
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 2: this time thirty five percent wanted the union to endorse Harris.

257
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 2: So despite those numbers, they still said because they didn't

258
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,680
Speaker 2: hear directly from the candidates making this promise, they are

259
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 2: not endorsing either candidate.

260
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris has picked up the endorsement of several unions,

261
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: including the large teachers' unions, but this was a big

262
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,319
Speaker 1: one that everybody was going over. Going after O'Brien. It

263
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 1: should be noted here robes with the Teamsters Union. John

264
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:53,719
Speaker 1: O'Brien became the first Teamsters president to address the RNC

265
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 1: the Republican National Convention earlier this summer.

266
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's all so interesting how this politics work behind

267
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 2: the scenes getting these types of endorsements, And it should

268
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 2: be noted that both of the candidates truly wanted the

269
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 2: Teamsters endorsement. This would be huge. Harris had a closed

270
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 2: door meeting with the union's leadership in Washington. Trump met

271
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 2: Teamsters leaders trying to land the high profile endorsement. Both

272
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 2: of them were trying to win over union members and

273
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 2: by the way, they are heavily concentrated in the battleground

274
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 2: states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. That's what makes the

275
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 2: teamsters endorsement so important, but again neither candidate will be

276
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 2: getting it all right, But on.

277
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 1: The final leg of this morning's run, we want to

278
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 1: ask you, well, first, many of you know that Robot

279
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: and I are big time horror movie buffs, So this

280
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: was a little deeper dive into horror movies, but it's

281
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: a good one. There's a movie called Countdown. Have you seen?

282
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 1: This thing? Wasn't a blockbuster horror movie, but it is

283
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: a good watch about young people who discovered an app

284
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 1: that gives you a countdown clock that shows exactly when

285
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: you're going to die. Now, all kinds of madness ensues

286
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: in the movie, but this sounds like a crazy concept, right,

287
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: In no way something like that could ever exist, right,

288
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: And even if it did, Robok, would you want to

289
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 1: know exactly when you're going to die?

290
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 3: You know what?

291
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 2: That has been a question we have actually asked ourselves

292
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 2: after watching that movie. And by the way, I would

293
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 2: argue that a great horror movie oftentimes isn't a blockbuster

294
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 2: horror movie. So this is one to check out if

295
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 2: you haven't already. And yes, we have asked ourselves that

296
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 2: I said I wouldn't want to know.

297
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 3: TJ What did you say?

298
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: Maybe yes, because it wouldn't it cause you to then

299
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: live a certain way if you knew your clock said

300
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: next week something was going to be over. What how

301
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: would you change the way you live if you knew

302
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 1: you had forty more years? Would you then start living

303
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: a way that maybe you shouldn't? So, I don't know.

304
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: There's something to knowing.

305
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 2: Yes, knowing that you have a lot of time ahead

306
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 2: is beautiful. Knowing that your time is limited maybe not

307
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 2: so much. Here's the deal.

308
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 1: So I think.

309
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 3: There's an app.

310
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 2: By the way, there's a real life app that says

311
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 2: it's going to give you your death day. The new

312
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 2: AI app claims it can predict when you're going to die,

313
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 2: and it's aptly named death clock, so not count down

314
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 2: but death clock. So how does it predict your death? Well,

315
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 2: the app asks you a ton of questions about your health,

316
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 2: about your health habits, and you can even upload health

317
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 2: documents to the app, and then it gives you a precise,

318
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 2: precise date of death.

319
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 1: Maybe they should work on the name death clock. I

320
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 1: don't know about that. But catch you though, I mean,

321
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 1: you know exactly what you're getting. But why would anybody

322
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: want this? Well, The purpose is for this to serve

323
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 1: as a wake up call for people to possibly make

324
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: some changes to their lifestyle that can then help you

325
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 1: prolong your life. I each change the date of your death.

326
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: So it's not just it's not exactly like the movie.

327
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 2: It's not precise, it's not.

328
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 1: That, but it does in a morbid way. You hear

329
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: it like, why would anybody want to know when they're

330
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: going to die? This is trying to help.

331
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 3: You live longer, exactly.

332
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 2: And by the way, this does cost money. A subscription

333
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 2: runs you ten dollars a month, or you can pay

334
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 2: forty dollars for the year, and they urge you you

335
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 2: have to be honest about your habits if you're going

336
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 2: to do this, because they're going to ask you about diet, exercise,

337
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,959
Speaker 2: mental health, physical health, your social life, how much sleep

338
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 2: you get, how much of the day do you spend sittings.

339
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 2: So it gets very specific, and it estimates your biological age.

340
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 2: It can assign you a health score. But here's the

341
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 2: big deal. It then explores ways to improve those statistics,

342
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 2: as you point out, So they're hoping that people not

343
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,400
Speaker 2: just check the app out to see when they're presumed

344
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,680
Speaker 2: death day is going to be but actually to monitor

345
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,360
Speaker 2: and improve and to reduce, to actually give yourself more

346
00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 2: time by changing your habits.

347
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 1: And to be clearly, it gives a precise It doesn't

348
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 1: just say oh maybe in ten plus years. It gets

349
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 1: fairly specific with the date. And you say it's a subscription, like,

350
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 1: why would anybody want to keep doing it? Well, can

351
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: you imagine people getting hooked on trying to change your date?

352
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,680
Speaker 1: You keep putting in new information, Maybe you change your

353
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: health habits, maybe you lose a little weight, maybe you

354
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 1: don't not smoking as many cigarettes, and you start to

355
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:27,119
Speaker 1: see your death date change. You can get hooked on that.

356
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 3: Okay, this is embarrassing. I just got chills when you

357
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 3: said that.

358
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 2: I do there is a real positive way. It's a

359
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 2: clever hook because people want to know or they want

360
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 2: to see what it says. And then if you get

361
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 2: hooked trying to make yourself live longer and live better,

362
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 2: that's a that's a big plus happy life.

363
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 1: Well, it's glad you're along with us on the morning

364
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: run today. Remember, make it a good one, because your

365
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: clock is taken. I'll see you tomorrow.
