Speaker 2: across the country are still seeing TSA staffing shortages as

4
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,080
Speaker 2: the partial government shutdown drags on. That's caused lines at

5
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:20,119
Speaker 2: security checkpoints to stretch for hours as agents remain without pay.

6
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,480
Speaker 2: It comes after the Senate failed to pass a spending

7
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:25,480
Speaker 2: bill yesterday that would have ended the partial government shutdown

8
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 2: and fund homeland security. President Trump says Iran is begging

9
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,200
Speaker 2: to make a deal to end it's nearly month long

10
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,680

Speaker 2: while holding a cabinet meeting at the White House. Trump

12
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 2: went on to stress again that Iran can't be allowed

13
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 2: to have a nuclear weapon. He added that if the

14
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 2: US didn't strike last summer, Iran would have had a

15
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 2: nuclear weapon within two weeks. The case against opposed Venezuelan

16
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,560

Speaker 2: that request today in a New York at federal court,

18
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 2: saying maduroll can't pay for his own defense because the

19
00:00:56,600 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 2: US won't let him access Venezuelan government funds. Said that's

20
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,560

22
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 2: ballot for an upcoming Florida special election today during the

23
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 2: Cabinet meeting, He said he voted by mail because he's

24
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 2: the president and felt it was better for him to

25
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 2: be in Washington, d C.

26
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 1: Because of the fact that I'm President of the United States.

27
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: I did a mail in ballot for elections that took

28
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 1: place in Florida because I felt I should be here

29
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 1: instead of being in the beautiful sunshine.

30
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 2: Trump has been against mail in voting overall, or, as

31
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 2: he calls it, mail in cheating. When pressed about recently

32
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 2: being in Palm Beach, Trump said that again, he couldn't

33
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 2: be there. Trump went on to note several reasons why

34
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 2: mail in voting is valid. By the way, the special

35
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,120

36
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,840

52
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 2: has more to seek out, new life and new civilizations,

53
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 2: to boldly go where no man has gone before.

54
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 1: Captain Kirk wighed in on the cancellation of Star Trek

55

00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: that not a lot seems to have changed when observing

58
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 1: public response to some of Star Trek Time Woo content.

59
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: He even asserted that based on today's vernacular, the franchise

60
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 1: would absolutely be called Woke DEI crap because it went

61
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 1: against the norms of society for its time. Shatner expressed

62
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,519
Speaker 1: sorrow over the series termination and said he believed Star

63
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,360

64
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball's new automated system for determining balls and strikes,

65
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 2: called ABS, was put to the test last night. It

66
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 2: was Opening night in San Francisco between the Yankees and

67
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 2: the Giants. The ABS incident occurred in the fourth inning

68
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 2: when Yankee shortstop pose At Cabaliro challenged a strike. The

69
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 2: machine determined the umpire was right and Caybaliro lost the appeal.

70
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 2: In this new system, teams are allowed to challenges at

71
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 2: the start of each game, with just the pitcher, catcher,

72
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 2: and hitter allowed to use them. If a team wins

73
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 2: a challenge, they get another, but can't use any more

74
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 2: if they lose. To Ani Music History News on this date.

00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 2: artistic significance. I'm Chris Karagio
