    Oh, the poor left. I'm telling you what. For the past five months and a week, they have had nothing to celebrate. Nothing to celebrate except for these activist judges. That's been it. President Trump has been and and by the way, he's been he he's done for the past five months and a week. He has done this single handedly. Our legislature, the house and the senate, have sent fewer bills to this president than any congress in the past seventy years. It's not because they're out there making laws. It's because president Trump is acting and good for him, and it's working. And that's really got the liberals upset. In fact, they were already upset just at the victory. Well, we have Ellen DeGeneres. She moved over to England. She never took her house off the market, though. I found that interesting. Rosie O'Donnell moved over to Ireland and is already talking about moving back because she's just not the celebrity over there. She says it's hard living over there. Okay. But the reason that she moved is because Donald Trump made her drunk and fat. I hey. That's not me saying it. That's Rosie O'Donnell saying this. During his first go round, it was very difficult, and I got myself into some bad places. You know? I was very, very depressed. I was overeating. I was overdrinking. I was, you know, I was so depressed, Chris. I can't you know, it it hurt my heart that America believed the lies about him, and then it broke my heart to be in a business that creates and sells those lies for profit. Yeah. Blah blah blah. What isn't Trump's fault? You know, Chris, I I'm I'm I'm morbidly obese. I got a drinking problem, and it's all Trump's fault. I I have no personal responsibility in that whatsoever. It's all that dog on Donald Trump. I can't believe well, I tell you what, what an effect what an effect this man's had. Have you ever known anybody that ever came up to you and said, hey. You You made me fat. No. No. They will blame anything and everything on Donald Trump and never have any personal responsibility. I just find that hilarious. Well, they're having a really bad day today because these left wingers are losing their ever loving minds over these Supreme Court decisions. Trump administration, huge victories today after the Supreme Court ruled that district level nationwide injunctions exceeded judicial authority. Now that's gonna throw a bit of a monkey wrench into the left wing strategy of seeking universal relief in a few left wing jurisdictions across the country and hopefully return some actual balance to the separation of powers in the US government. Now while the decision was a victory for common sense and for voters who prefer judges not to overstep their bounds, it was a defeat for the Democrats who wanted that abuse of power to remain in place. Over on MSNBC, Melissa Murray melted down melted down. I think this is a really huge win for the Trump administration. I'm glad that we're talking about it in those terms because I think one of the great fears with this case was that if the court did not say anything about the substance and spoke of the fourteenth amendment, media would say that the court had saved birthright citizenship. The court has not saved birthright citizenship. It simply kicked that can down the line and made the legal conditions under which a future suit over birthright citizenship can actually be resolved. Leah is exactly right. This is a huge win for the Trump administration because the court has essentially kneecapped lower courts from stopping this administration when it engages in lawless and unconstitutional behavior. And Lisa makes a really important point. This is all happening in an environment where the Trump administration is not only going after undocumented persons and deporting people without the benefit of due process. They're doing so while they are also upending the legal landscape, but making it harder for pro bono outfits to secure the help they need from law firms to bring these s ...

    So in New York, they've got a radical Islamic Muslim mayoral candidate for the Democrat Party. This guy should be the face of the Democrat Party. Absolutely should. Because right now, they're without a leader. So is, is is Zoran Mondami the new face of the Democrat party? I mean, he certainly got the backing of the Bernie Sanders and the AOCs and the Chuck Shumers and all of those people out there, will he be the face of the Democrat party? Maybe so. Maybe so. And will he become the mayor of New York? You see, this is all part of a plan. The British have already given up. They've already lost. Islam has won in Great Britain. Mayor of London, Muslim. Mayor of Birmingham, Muslim. Mayor of Leeds, Muslim. Mayor of Sheffield, Muslim. Mayor of Oxford, Muslim. Mayor of Luton, Muslim. Mayor of Oldham, Muslim. Mayor of Roche Deer, Dale, Muslim. 4,000,000 Muslims in Great Britain, 66,000,000 people, over 3,000 Muslim mosque, over a 130 Muslim Sharia courts, over 50 Muslim Sharia councils, Muslim no go areas across The UK, Muslim women, 78% don't work and are on free benefits, Muslim men, 63% don't work and are on free benefits and housing, Muslim families, 6.8 children, free benefits. Free benefits, housing. Now The UK schools are only serving halal meat, which is prepared in the tenants of Islam. Great Britain is gone. That's that's not coming back. It would take a huge seismic shift to bring it back. And now we're looking at it right here in The United States. I was a there was a great cartoon out there. It was, it was, it showed a a Muslim man, and this is a a UK cartoon. And there was a British guy behind the desk, and he was like, welcome to Great Britain. Then the next panel had had three Muslim men. And the British guy is sitting there, and he says, welcome to Great Britain at the immigration office. The next panel shows five Muslim men showing up, and now there's a Muslim guy behind the desk saying, welcome to Great Britain. The next panel shows a British person or somebody that you know, a westerner coming in. Access denied. You see, that's the thing about this. This is a plan. Oh, don't believe you don't have to believe me. That's fine. That's fine. But when you hear it straight from the horse's mouth, You need to believe it. Listen to this Muslim woman talking about the Muslim Brotherhood. As the Muslim Brotherhood, has been working on infiltrating the American society and American politics for too long, at least for forty years now since they started working on their one hundred year plan to sabotage America from within, which is officially known as an explanatory memorandum for the Muslim brotherhood activities in North America. It's it depends very much on patience and gradualism. Patience meaning that they wait for the right moment to jump in, to infiltrate, to enter in, in certain events like for example what they did on 09/11, like the BDS campaign between 02/2017 and now the aftermath of October 7. So this is how they have been playing this game for so long. And, unfortunately, forty years after they have written this, explanatory memorandum, it looks like they are doing, good job so far. A good job so far. Yeah. Well, yeah, you gotta hand it to them. They are that's the thing. It was a hundred year plan. And folks, listen to this. According to her, we're only forty years into it. We're only forty years into the one hundred year plan, and New York could have a radical Islamic Muslim as their mayor. What is that city gonna be like? We know there are already my my friend, Rahim Qasam, wrote a great book called No Go Zones. So when all these people all over the world, they're, there's no such thing as no go zones. Oh, yes. There is. There is such a thing. In fact, there are certain areas in Minneapolis and other cities where the Muslims have their own police. Now they're not sanctioned by the state, but they are sanctioned by the local communities. And they have police cars, and they wear uniforms, and th ...

    I pledge allegiance to the flag of The United States Of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Oh, beautiful for spacious skies, for amber waves of rain, for purple mountain America is back. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Welcome back to the program. We appreciate it. Well, we got a governor's race coming up, and one of the men that is officially announced that he is running for governor is attorney general Alan Wilson, and he joins us right now. Attorney general Wilson, how are you, sir? Man, I'm doing great. Trying to survive the heat Yes. Probably like all of your listeners are right now. So if you become governor of South Carolina, are you gonna do something about the heat? Is that gonna be a campaign promise? I was gonna try to move the sun back just a couple of million miles just to give it a few degrees. I'm gonna work on that. Alright. So you announced this on on Monday, and, what was your thought process? Why did you want to run for governor of South Carolina? Well, first off, Charlie, let me start by saying I love South Carolina. I have loved serving as her attorney general for the last fourteen and a half years. This is something that I have been thinking about for many months. I've spoken with my family, prayed about it, came to the ultimate conclusion that I'm uniquely situated and qualified to be the next governor of South Carolina. As a twenty nine year combat veteran with experience in combat, as an attorney general who's commanded an office of 350 people, who has been on the national stage on high profile cases, very, very high profile cases, and has made very impactful decisions that affect this state as well as the lives of soldiers I've led. I feel like that I would make a great governor. You want a governor that is going to have a calm, steady hand on the wheel of the state, but at the same time, you want someone who's capable of bringing about true form and, reform and change without injecting chaos into our system. And I think I can do that. So you picked up some pretty big endorsements today. Right? Yes, sir. Yesterday morning in Charleston, I began with the Berkeley, Dorchester, and Charleston County sheriff. So on Monday, I received the endorsement of the Lexington County sheriff. Mhmm. And, today, I received the sheriff assuming the endorsement of the Greenville County sheriff, Hobart Lewis, who is a very dear friend and an amazing law enforcement leader, and I was honored to have his endorsement and support today. So let's let's take a look at at your governorship. What would you want to be known for? When it's all said and done, people say, Alan Wilson, he was the governor that that did this. What are your plans for the state of South Carolina? Well, my my priorities are gonna be basically this. We're gonna eliminate the state income tax. Three states in the Southeast have already done it. Another five states are working to do it. South Carolina cannot fall behind. And so eliminate the income tax would basically go a long way to my priority, basically promoting economic growth. Number two, I wanna doge South Carolina from the top to the bottom and back up again. Meaning, from school districts to local government, to county government, to state government, we need to be using state of the art AI platforms as well as a beefed up inspector general's office to inspect how money is being spent at all levels and whether bureaucrats and people embedded in government are spending money and applying the rules of properly and not arbitrarily. And if they are, violating, if they are committing fraud, waste, and abuse, they need to be exposed and removed. And if they're doing it criminally, they need to be prosecuted. I also wanna reform education. I wanna expand access, to more children at an earlier age getting access to classes and courses that promote reading comprehension and math comprehension, while expanding the op ...

    I tell you what, on Wednesday, I was like, it's gotta be Friday already. But, no, it is finally here, y'all. It's been a hot one too out there. It is still hot, gonna be hot this weekend, so y'all, make sure you take care of yourselves. Well, speaking of hot, we had some hot action in the Supreme Court today and some really good action. The Supreme Court has, smacked down all of these activist judges out there. You know, the the lower court judges who were doing these nationwide injunctions against the Trump administration for everything. Everything. In fact, I was about to make a joke. I'll make the joke. So, the a lower court has ruled that president Trump, unconstitutionally used the f word the other day. So there you go. There's the joke. Anyway, Supreme Court ruling six to three, and this whole thing had to do with birthright citizenship. So what this judge did, in three lower courts, Maryland, Massachusetts, and Washington, they are telling them to review and narrow their injunction. And they went on to say that, listen. You can't just you just can't do a nationwide injunction as if it were some sort of a class action lawsuit. You have to have individuals that are named. You can't just, as a group, do that. So you have to name the individuals in this. The individuals have to, be in on this. So this was a big, big win for the Trump administration because this could limit the use of nationwide injunctions in other cases that have been used to block the executive branch of the United States, like sanctuary city funding, things like that. Here's what Pam Bondi said about it. I believe yes. This was this afternoon. Here we go. Americans are finally getting what they voted for. No longer will we have rogue judges striking down president Trump's policies across the entire nation. No longer. Today, in the six three opinion, justice Barrett correctly holds that the district court lacks authority to enter nationwide or universal injunctions. These lawless injunctions gave relief to everyone in the world instead of the parties before the court. As the Supreme Court held today, they turned district courts into the imperial judiciary. Active liberal justices, judges have used these injunctions to block virtually all of president Trump's policy. Yep. To put this in perspective, there are 94 federal judicial districts. Five of those districts throughout this country held 35 of the nationwide injunctions. Think about that. 94 districts and 35 out of the 40 opinions with nationwide injunctions came from five liberal districts in this country. Exactly right. Exactly right. President Trump also spoke about it. Thanks to this decision, we can now properly file to proceed with numerous policies that have been wrongly enjoined on a nationwide basis. And some of the cases we're talking about would be, ending birthright citizenship, which now comes to the fore. That was meant for the babies of slaves. It wasn't meant for people trying to scam the system and come into the country on a vacation. This was in fact, it was the same date, the exact same date, the end of the civil war. It was meant for the babies of slaves, and it's so clean and so obvious. But this lets us go there and finally win that case because hundreds of thousands of people are pouring into our country under birthright citizenship, and it wasn't meant for that reason. It was meant for the babies of slaves. So thanks to this decision, we can now properly file to proceed with these numerous policies and those that have been wrongly enjoined in a nationwide basis, including birthright citizenship, ending sanctuary city funding, suspending refugee resettlement, freezing unnecessary funding, stopping federal taxpayers from paying for transgender surgeries, and numerous other priorities of the American people. And that's a very, very good thing because these judges I mean, oh my gosh. I think under under George Bush, there were, like, two two injunctions. This guy, pre ...

    Welcome back to the program. Let's go to the WORD Chalk Line. We'll talk to John in Malden. John, hope you're doing well this afternoon, my friend. Well, good afternoon, Charlie James. It's great to talk to you. I hope you're doing well. Yes, sir. What's up? I just wanted to bring up, you know, it's it's no surprise. You know, I've I've called into Lindsey Graham's office for ten, fifteen years now, and you never talk to any live person. It's always a recording. Leave a recording. Leave a voice message. Whatever. Yeah. I did remind him that 60% of South Carolinians, according to a new poll, want him replaced. But for the first time ever, calling into senator Scott's office, I got to talk to a voice message. Uh-huh. It is always been a staffer until today, and he has a, just a just a voice thing that you leave a message. It is pathetic that in a, quote, unquote, conservative state, our two conservative senators, quote, unquote, are, I should say air quotes, but, are missing in action. Yeah. They talk that they support president Trump, but they're yellow. They don't support him. They don't care about the average taxpayer like us. They don't care that our bills are gonna go up drastically. They just don't. Yeah. You're right about that. They they really don't. If they did, they would be doing something about it. I appreciate it, John. Thank you. And doing something about it means being more vocal. I the the senate is not for the weak. You might be able to get away with it in the house. I mean, there, you're pretty anonymous. There's a oh, I I think there's a 80 or is she 88? I think there's an 88 year old woman in the Congress that nobody's ever heard of that wants to run for reelection again, but her staff was like, yeah. You might die. Yeah. No. No. No. No. You've got you've got a lot of knitting to catch up on. You don't need to be doing that. But but, again, you can get you can be relatively anonymous in the house. It takes work to be anonymous in the senate. I mean, that takes real work. Now Padilla was pretty good at being anonymous. Tim Scott's pretty good at being anonymous. He'll crawl out when, you know, the time is right, but there you go. Well, New York City. How are you guys feeling about this thing? How are you guys feeling about Zoran Mamdani, the radical socialist Muslim who is running to be the mayor of New York. He won the primary in New York City against Andrew Cuomo and several others. They had this, they had that rank choice voting thing, in the primary there, and, and he won. He won that election. And he's a guy that wants to do 200,000 low income units in New York. He wants to make the grocery stores city owned. He wants to no cash bail. He wants to, in effect, legalize prostitution, legalize drug use, have open safe injection sites. Again, did I mention no cash bail? No cash bail. He wants to, just his policies are a mess, and they would hurt the city of New York drastically. And they've already done that. He's already starting to hurt New York. In fact, there are some luxury real estate brokers, and these folks are saying and that is a good key. That is a real good benchmark to look at how well some place is doing. Where are your luxury real estate deals? Well, now wealthy New Yorkers are looking to leave New York after Zoran Mondami's primary win. New York City, as we know it, is never gonna be the same if this man is elected mayor. It's gonna go just like new, Detroit did after the nineteen sixty seven riots. Hanging by a thread, Ma'am Dami would drive the wealthy out. He would drive out the financial sector, drive out the real estate sector. He would drive the cops out. He would drive the Jews out. He would destroy small business in New York, and they would have deserved it. New Yorkers would have deserved it for allowing this man to be mayor. President Trump said it's finally happened. The Democrats have crossed the line. Zoran Mamdami, a 100% communist lunatic, has won the Democr ...

    I pledge allegiance to the flag of The United States Of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Oh, beautiful for spacious skies, for amber waves of rain, for purple mountain majesties above the fruit America is back. Yes, sir. And we've got some great news from the Supreme Court this morning. The Supreme Court has ruled in the case of, Medina versus Planned Parenthood South Carolina, and it says states do not have to use taxpayer dollars to fund organizations like Planned Parenthood. Joining us right now is state representative Sarita Edgerton. Sarita, this is a big win for South Carolina, isn't it? Oh my goodness. It is. Every time we take a little bit back from the enemy that he's stolen from us or we've seeded ground and we take it back, I consider it a victory today, so I praised God today and prayed and thanked him for this win. It's a big win. It is a big win. In fact, the, the Freedom Caucus, has issued a statement. I just wanna read some of it here. We celebrate the US Supreme Court's decision to confirm that South Carolina has the right to withhold taxpayer funds from abortion mills. Organizations like planned parenthood not only kills infants in the womb, but have become the most prolific dispenser of chemical castration and sterilization chemicals of children. They don't deserve a tie a dime of taxpayer money. But the question is, Sarita, what is the state legislature gonna do about it? Well, I do have to say, representative Stephen Long put this trigger in, with his position on ways and means, and this is what caused this, case to be, taken up and and the state sued, that it was in our Medicaid. And so while we can take it out of our Medicaid, and I'm I'm sure we will, we've got some people who are gonna who's gonna fight for that. And we would also have to address that it's also in our public employees benefits accounts Right. That you can get abortions in certain instances using your state insurance. So if you're a legislator, a state police officer, any state employee who has PEBA, their and taxpayer money is going to, fund abortions and Planned Parenthood possibly in this state. So that was that like a gotta get both of those. Yeah. Was that a was that a carve out? I'm not entirely sure on that one, Charlie, but I'm gonna do everything I can, when we get back in session in January. See, if we have passed the personhood, Sani Da Right. Resolution Yeah. Government master could call us back. We could be working on this and have it ready to go, or we maybe could possibly be called back into session and and continue while the iron, you know, you know, to fire while the iron's hot. But, I do have to say, we voted on a bunch of stuff, when the majority of the people of my own party down there did not want to have any appetite for life. They were worn out from the six week heartbeat fetal fetal heartbeat bill Yeah. And they didn't wanna continue to push for any pro we have pro life legislation to protect pregnancy centers. We have pro life legislation to get the abortion pill, to not be able to be ordered from out of state and brought into the state. We're still killing thousands of babies that way. We still have legalized abortion. There's many, many things that we could have done. So while I am celebrating today, that just makes my resolve even stronger to get into January 14 or thirteenth this next time. I think it's thirteenth this next time and hit the ground running with some legislation. We need to get this through committee. We don't need casino bills. Right. We don't need expanding alcohol sales and maternity leave for birthing people. This is the stuff we we tackle this year. We need to be protecting those who cannot protect themselves.

It feels a little bit better out there today, but, I mean, it's just it's just one of those weeks where you go, holy cow. We had to found out we had to have some tree work done at the house. That's gonna cost a boatload of money. Then I had a cracked oil pan in my car. And I also found out something about cracked oil pans. It doesn't matter how big the crack is. I mean, this isn't a Hunter Biden deal where you get, you know, if you get a big crack as it's this much money, if you get a little bit of crack, is that much money. It's not one of those deals with Hunter Biden. This, it doesn't matter what size crack you got. It doesn't matter what size crack you got in your oil pan. It's the same price. You thing could've just cracked in half, and it would've been the same price. Right? Right? Just boom. Gun. Done. Done. So it could be eight inches or eight millimeters, still gonna be the same price. So, anyway, that's been a lot of fun. Anyway and then we had, of course, the, the the bombing of of Iran, and yet all of these people in the over in the mainstream media, and they were like, well, first of all, they were saying, well, you know, Charlie, there's no proof for there's no proof that Iran has the nuclear weapons over there. So then Trump goes in, and he bombs all these nuclear weapon sites. And now they're like, I don't even think that did any good. I don't even think that stopped that nuclear weapons programmer. Oh, really? I thought you said there wasn't one. And there are still people out there that are saying ridiculous stuff like that. So today, Pete Hegseth I mean, the the Pete Hegseth, president Trump, they'd had it. They'd had it with all of this BS. And Pete Heggs at today was a I hey. You know what? He it was he really let Fox News reporter Jennifer Griffin had it, and rightfully so. Let's take a listen to this. Highly enriched uranium. Do you have certainty that all the highly enriched uranium was inside the Forteaux Mountain or some of it because there were satellite photos that showed more than a dozen trucks there two days in advance? Are you certain none of that highly enriched uranium was moved? Of course, we're watching every single aspect. But, Jennifer, you've been about the worst. The the the one who misrepresents the most intentionally. I I don't what what the president says I was I was I'm I'm familiar. Report about the ventilation shafts on Saturday night. And in fact, I was the first to describe the b two bombers, the refueling, the entire mission with great accuracy. So I I take issue with that. I appreciate you acknowledging this is the first operate the most successful mission based on operational security that this department has done since you've been here, and I appreciate that. So Absolutely. We're looking at all aspects of intelligence and making sure we have a sense of what was where. So and and and and another reporter got upset because he said those the, the the the pilots, those boys did a great job. Those boys did a great job, and they were like, hold on. Wait a minute. Hold on. Those weren't just boys. There were there was a girl there too. You gotta be you gotta have give equal time to the ladies up there. And this is the most ridiculous BS. And all of this comes from a, CNN's Natasha Bertrand. Well, Caroline Levitt had a little bit to say about her. '24. Bertrand pushed the suckers and losers hoax.

    Let's go to the WORD Talk Line. We'll talk to Roger and Gaffney. Roger, how are you doing, bud? Hey, Charlie. How are you doing, man? I'm great. What's going on? Question. Well, I got Roger, you're gonna have to call back because we had a bad connection there. Would love to hear what, have your question there. Well, president Trump has announced over on Truth Social not long ago. He says secretary of defense Pete Hegseth, together with military representatives, will be holding a major news conference tomorrow morning at 8AM eastern time at the Pentagon in order to fight for the dignity of our American pilots. These patriots were very upset. After thirty six hours of dangerously flying through enemy territory, they landed. They knew their success was legendary. And then two days later, they started reading fake news by CNN and the failing New York Times. They felt terribly. Fortunately for them and, as usual, solely for the purpose of demeaning the president of The United States, The fake news, Times, and CNN lied and totally misrepresented the facts, none of which they had because it was too soon. There were no facts out there yet. The news conference will prove both interesting and irrefutable. Enjoy. That was from the president of The United States, and that, hopefully, that'll put and, again, remember this so called leaked report was with low confidence. Now what the mainstream media is trying to tell you is that there's low confidence in the mission. Nope. Not what that means. That means they shouldn't even issue reports with low confidence. That means they had no intel, and they did not have accurate information. And not to mention the fact that that was supposed to be classified. So now let's go back to Roger and Gaffney. Roger, hopefully, we got a better, connection there. What's up, man? Charlie, thank you for taking my call. First time caller. I have you hit the bell. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. What's going on? So I was wondering about these idiots that have arrested, and I don't remember if they're young teens, young adults, for destroying the pride flags. Yeah. If if they're gonna be charged for hate crimes, what about these idiots that are burning the American flag? Shouldn't those people be charged with hate crime as well? No. Roger, that's freedom of speech. That is yeah. That's totally covered by the first amendment, and you can do that, but you can't burn a pride flag. Now I do agree that you shouldn't go on somebody else's property and steal their property. I don't care what it says or what it does. But the fact that they're gonna get they're gonna get hate crimes simply because it was a pride flag? No. That Right. Hate hate crimes laws are ridiculous. Right? Right. So I appreciate it, Roger. But but here's the thing, man. If you get extra time for a hate crime, shouldn't you get less time for a love crime? Shouldn't there be things called love crimes out there? Somebody said something bad about my wife, so I love her. And because of my love for her, I go and I take a baseball bat and I pop somebody upside the head with it. So, I mean, shouldn't there be love crimes out there? I think they should be. Is it me? No. Anyway anyway, hate crimes are absolutely ridiculous. Eight hundred nine zero five o ninety eight nine. That's common sense return retirement planning text line. The guy had that New York mayoral primary yesterday. Zoran Mandame won for the Democrats, and this guy you know, and I've I've said this before doing the show, but I'm I'm kinda just a little little bitty bit of me hopes he wins.

Now I I see like, I'll go to the store and I'll see, like, a little Krispy Kreme stand there. But I believe there's only one place to get a Krispy Kreme doughnut. That's at Krispy Kreme. With the red hot doughnuts now flashing, that's when that's when you're you pull across eight lanes of traffic, dash in there, and you grab those donuts. In fact, there was a, there's a, a Krispy Kreme in Columbia. Really it's right there at, University of South Carolina. And and I found out about this. There was, sometimes when they would, like, squish the you know, they squirt out the doughnut dough, take it down on a conveyor belt. It'll drop down into the oil where it will cook for a certain amount of time, and then they'll flip them and they'll finish cooking, and then they'll put the icing on them, right, for the, for the iced original donut. Sometimes, the donut doesn't flip. So what you have is you've got a doughnut that is double cooked on the bottom, hardly cooked at all on the top, but still glazed. Well, apparently, some of these young, sorority women at the University of South Carolina found out about this. And they started, going down there and ordering them, and they would give them to them, like, at a a ridiculously low price, but they loved them. They absolutely loved them. And, and I don't they might have even given them away. But I remember I was asking a guy one time. I said, why don't y'all do I said, you've got so many people screaming for that. Why don't you do it? They said, they won't let us. They won't let us sell them like that. You know, regulations, they gotta be cooked on both sides and all of that stuff. So anyway but anyway, only place to get a Krispy Kreme is a Krispy Kreme. That's it. And, yes, they are the best doughnut. Hot, hot, hot, hot out there right now. Let me just double check the phone, see what the, feels like temperature is. It feels like is this accurate? Let me just double check. Let me refresh this. Right now, it feels like 103 degrees outside. My neighbor did something today. I guess he did it today. I just saw it today. Genius. Absolute genius. You know how you got your robot vacuums?

And Pete Hegseth is thinking is saying that he's gonna find out the people that that leaked it, and they are gonna be charged because now the FBI is involved. At least we hope they are. But all these people in the media at The Hague today were just talking about this. Low confidence report because they just wanna make Trump look bad. Well, Pete Hegseth was having none of that today.

But, you know, she had done what she needed to do and put them before the committee, and and after that, she didn't know what went and what didn't. But if if, on that last day that all those were signed and and Biden had just said, you know, days before that he would not pardon Hunter, well, you know, that that can't be so if it took him several days to decide what to use the pen on and whatnot.

    And welcome to the program. Glad to have you along with us. Oh my goodness. What a day. What an absolute day. We've been hearing about this report from the, the Defense Intelligence Agency. A a report of low confidence. It's a report of low confidence. Do you know what that means? Now what a lot of these people in the mainstream media are trying to tell you is that this is they have that this report just said that there was low confidence that the mission over in Iran was successful, but that's not what it means. That is exactly the opposite of what this means. When they say this is a report of low confidence, that means there is low confidence in the report. They admit that they don't have all of the intelligence in place. They don't have all of their facts together. They just came out and they said, well, you know, we don't know how much damage it really did. Well, of course, they don't. They haven't been able to go in there. But all these people in the media come along and say, well well, president Trump, is attacking Iran, probably didn't do as much as he well, my again, a report of low confidence. That means they've got low confidence in the report. Okay? But they're running with it. And first of all, this was a this was a leaked intelligence assessment. It was leaked. And, also, it was run with by CNN and The New York Times, and now all the mainstream media is picking up on this. And I'm telling you what, they're gonna have to eat some crow. They're gonna have to eat some crow. President Trump talked about that today at The Hague, and he was none too happy with these fake news reporters out there issuing these statements. Why is it? And, again, you gotta ask yourself, why is it why are they so anti American? Now we know they're anti Trump. We get that. But why can't they at least support our troops? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. And by the way, a lot of these people that are saying, well, look at this report. This report says it didn't do much damage to Iran's nuclear weapons capabilities. Hold on just a second. I thought just a few days ago, you guys were doubting that Iran even was working on a nuclear weapon. There is no evidence that that Iran is working on a nuclear weapon. That was a couple days ago. Today. Well, there's no evidence that president Trump did any damage to Iran's nuclear weapon program. Like, what what well, if it didn't exist according to you guys, how could it do a lot of damage? You see how they've got one goal in mind. One, make Donald Trump look bad. That's their only plan. Charlie, there is low confidence reporting, low confidence in the reporting of MSNBC, MSDNC, and CNN. You're exactly right. I have no confidence in their reporting whatsoever. These are the same people that went with Russia, Russia, Russia. These are the same people that went with, Hunter Biden's laptop was all a hoax. This is the same people who refuse to say anything bad about China. So, anyway but no matter what what is out there, The the Donald Trump was a huge hit at The Hague with that NATO summit. Huge hit. They love the guy over there. Just absolutely crazy about it. Let's listen to some major league butt kissing from the, from the, NATO secretary. Here we go. I just want to recognize your decisive action of Europe. Thank you. You are a man of strength, but you're also a man of peace. And the fact that you are now also successful in getting this ceasefire done between Israel and Iran, I really want to commend you for that. Thank you, sir. And I think this is important for the whole world. Man, they were they were snuggling up to Donald Trump. And what was he able to do with The Hague at this NATO summit? Well, I'll tell you what he was able to do. He was able to get people to actually start ponying up their share of the budget from for NATO. We've been the ones that have been carrying the load on that. So he's gotten these it used to be what? I think it was 2% of your GDP. That's what you were ...

They admit that they don't have all of the intelligence in place. They don't have all of their facts together. They just came out and they said, well, you know, we don't know how much damage it really did. Well, of course, they don't. They haven't been able to go in there. But all these people in the media come along and say, well well, president Trump, is attacking Iran, probably didn't do as much as he well, my again, a report of low confidence. That means they've got low confidence in the report. Okay? But they're running with it. And first of all, this was a this was a leaked intelligence assessment. It was leaked. And, also, it was run with by CNN and The New York Times, and now all the mainstream media is picking up on this. And I'm telling you what, they're gonna have to eat some crow. They're gonna have to eat some crow. President Trump talked about that today at The Hague, and he was none too happy with these fake news reporters out there issuing these statements. Why is it? And, again, you gotta ask yourself, why is it why are they so anti American? Now we know they're anti Trump. We get that. But why can't they at least support our troops? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. And by the way, a lot of these people that are saying, well, look at this report. This report says it didn't do much damage to Iran's nuclear weapons capabilities. Hold on just a second. I thought just a few days ago, you guys were doubting that Iran even was working on a nuclear weapon. There is no evidence that that Iran is working on a nuclear weapon. That was a couple days ago. Today. Well, there's no evidence that president Trump did any damage to Iran's nuclear weapon program. Like, what what well, if it didn't exist according to you guys, how could it do a lot of damage? You see how they've got one goal in mind. One, make Donald Trump look bad. That's their only plan. Charlie, there is low confidence reporting, low confidence in the reporting of MSNBC, MSDNC, and CNN. You're exactly right. I have no confidence in their reporting whatsoever. These are the same people that went with Russia, Russia, Russia. These are the same people that went with, Hunter Biden's laptop was all a hoax. This is the same people who refuse to say anything bad about China. So, anyway but no matter what what is out there, The the Donald Trump was a huge hit at The Hague with that NATO summit. Huge hit. They love the guy over there. Just absolutely crazy about it. Let's listen to some major league butt kissing from the, from the, NATO secretary. Here we go. I just want to recognize your decisive action of Europe. Thank you. You are a man of strength, but you're also a man of peace. And the fact that you are now also successful in getting this ceasefire done between Israel and Iran, I really want to commend you for that. Thank you, sir. And I think this is important for the whole world. Man, they were they were snuggling up to Donald Trump. And what was he able to do with The Hague at this NATO summit? Well, I'll tell you what he was able to do. He was able to get people to actually start ponying up their share of the budget from for NATO. We've been the ones that have been carrying the load on that. So he's gotten these it used to be what? I think it was 2% of your GDP. That's what you were ...

I wanted to, get your thoughts on something. I was just thinking when you were talking about the mainstream media earlier Yeah. And, I started to kinda fantasize a little bit about what if Elon Musk managed somehow to buy the New York Times. Oh, man. The implications be. I'll I'll take their response offline, but I go ahead. I appreciate it, buddy. I the the liberal heads would explode. Now if he wanted to do something, really, really cool, he should buy MSNBC. That would be oh my gosh. These and turn it into a conservative a real true conservative network. That way, we wouldn't have to want to, you know, those guys. That would be amazing. But liberals were oh oh, man. Then you know what then they would do? You know what would happen if if if you were to buy the New York Times? Liberals would all of a sudden be screaming about, quote, unquote, foreign ownership of American media. I remember they were all for George Soros buying 40% of this radio company. Oh, yes. Let's let him do it. Let oh, yeah. In fact, they they fast tracked that bad boy. But if Elon Musk was to buy The New York Times or MSNBC, all of a sudden, all these Democrats would be going, oh, no. No. No. He's not. He is not a natural born citizen. He can't own American media. They would change their tune pretty doggone quickly.

I really wanna thank you for letting, the he whose name I won't mention today Yeah. Call in later. I I knew I knew it wasn't the guy. I know I know the guy that that called me that name. Yeah.

If you call the show and you act responsibly and talk respectfully and are polite, you get your say, man. Yeah. It's a good conversation. Say. Absolutely. Exactly. Exactly. And and it did. It vindicated my whole point that they're so predictable because what I said, like, the phone call right before he called in was, don't make up some excuse though, about Medvedev, what he said. And, you know, dude said, well, he'd burn the world if he could. And I was like, well, he have four years and a day to do it, and he didn't. So it's the same with Trump. They said, oh, he's a dictator. Oh, he's oh, he's he's he's a fascist. He's like, he's gonna put everybody in jail and put us in camps. It's like, well, you know, he had four years to do that before Right. And he didn't. What makes you think he's gonna do it now? But they are really predictable. And I've got to say, I am tickled beyond delight about the impeachment vote today. What was it? A 128 Democrats, like, with Republicans not to impeach? It was like it was like 344 to 78. Okay.

    Well, today at the, a meeting with the oversight committee, the Democrats put up a, a poll about Doge, and it said that 67% disapprove of the work that Doge was doing, 38% approve, and 5% didn't know, but the math just did not add up. Just a point of clarification. The poll behind you, behind our ranking member, it adds up to a 110%. Just wanted to clarify, is it meant to add up to a 110%, or is that an error? Do you have a Yelp? Yeah. I do. This is from a Quinnipiac poll that was, held two weeks ago, and this is the data that was provided. There's a wealth of information, including information about Donald Trump's falling poll numbers, so you should take a look. Thanks. I yield back. The gentleman yields, and it still adds up to 110%. It still adds up to a 110%. Joining us right now is congressman William Timmons. Congressman Timmons, welcome to the program. Charlie, good afternoon. Great to be with you. That's quite essential democrat math. Yeah. You know Yeah. And they they made that poll up, and they just forgot that, you know, you you can only have a 100%. You can go a 110. Yeah. I'd I don't know about those Quinnipiac, polls there. But listen. You guys did have a have a subcommittee with Doge today, hearing today, didn't you? We did. We were, talking about how we're gonna work to make all of the Doge cuts permanent and the impact it's gonna have on long term spending. I thought it was great hearing. It went well. And and what are we looking at? Because that's been like a big sticking point with some of the Democrats. So just we did not get enough spending cuts in the big beautiful bill. Right? So we only could put spending cuts in the big beautiful bill that are allowed under both the rules of reconciliation Right. Particularly under the bird bath. So we are currently seeing the impacts of senate procedural rules. It's a it's a just a procedural mechanism to only get 50 votes 51 votes in the senate, and so we're gonna keep keep working on that. But that doesn't mean we're not gonna do everything else. We just gotta do those through rescissions packages and through government funding. So what cuts are we looking at with the DODE subcommittee? So, the one that we've already voted, the the rescissions packages was, the USAID, which is so ridiculous. It's not even funny. And the, PBS and NPR funding, which is just ridiculous. So, you know, we started there, but that doesn't mean that that's where we're gonna end. I think, you know, the the hard thing is is that we're talking to Democrats about how we're gonna fund the government going forward, and we need to fund the government because when the defense department, which has a near trillion dollar budget, operates under a continuous solution, it is extremely inefficient. So Yeah. We gotta find a way to come together to to fund the government. But they're looking at us going, well, wait. We agreed on this other spending, and you're just doing rescissions packages to stop the stuff you don't like. And my response to that is, well, you know, the people that voted for it would never have voted for it if they knew that you were gonna give, you know, hundreds of millions of dollars for, you know, these ridiculous government policies that have no positive impact on the American taxpayer. You're right about that. Now, Thune said that he's he kind of alluded to the fact that we might actually have that this bill by July 4. So the senate's supposed to vote on it this week. Thursday or Friday, the speaker said we are not leaving until it's done. Right. I love that. You know, the, this country deserves a birthday present, and we're gonna give it one. Yeah. And that would be a that would be a a great thing. But let's talk about the the big, big story. President Trump, his reactions to Iran. What are you hearing on in in Washington right now?

    I pledge allegiance to the flag of The United States Of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Oh, beautiful for spacious skies, for amber waves of grain, for purple mountain majesties above the fruit America is back. Yes, sir. America is back, thanks to the leadership of president Donald Trump, who who was having absolutely no shenanigans today from either Israel or Iran. I mean, president Trump saying, basically telling Iran or Israel, listen. The ceasefire is the ceasefire. And if you go and you start breaking the ceasefire, you're gonna do it without us. We're we're not gonna be the ones that are gonna bail you out of this. We went over there. We did what we needed to do. We destroyed Iran's nuclear capabilities. That's what we did, and that should have been our only involvement, and and hopefully it will be. Now I tried to explain this last hour, and I know that some of the, less intellectual, folks over there on the text line, didn't understand this. A couple of them, zero zero five, they couldn't understand my reasoning here. So you got basically three schools here. You got number one. You got the folks on the left that say none no involvement whatsoever. Let's hands off of Iran. Let's not even talk about it. Let's not get involved. Let's not offer support. Let's not do any of that. Just just leave it alone. It's not ours. Then you got on the opposite side, the people like Lindsey Graham that are going, no. Let's run-in full steam. Let's get boots on the ground, and let's get in there and do regime change again, and let's get into another never ending war over in Iran. And then you had the folks kind of in the middle where I and a lot of you align with president Trump. And that was like, do what we need to do and get out. We don't need to be doing regime change. We don't need to be sending boots on the ground. We don't need ground troops or anything like that. Go in. Destroy what we need to destroy to keep Iran from getting a nuclear program. Come home, and let that be it. A lot of people are like, I don't understand your reasoning, Charlie. Well, I again, you can lead someone to knowledge, but you can't make them think. But that's where we are, and and and we are not alone. Those of us that felt that way, that aligned with president Trump on this thing, we are not alone. In fact, take a listen to this from Harry Enten over there on CNN. Yeah. You know, I think there's this idea. Okay. Maybe the MAGA base wouldn't necessarily like this. Look. This is Donald Trump's Republican party. That's what I think is so important to note. GOP on The US airstrikes in Iran, 76% in the average of the two polls approved compared to just 18% who disapproved. Now I will note that is a bit higher than Donald Trump's disapproval rating within the Republican party. But overall, Republicans are with Donald Trump on this. Tucker Carlson be darned. The bottom line is he does not speak for the majority of the Republican base. The majority of the Republican base is with Donald Trump. And we can add more people than just Tucker Carlson to that. We can add Marjorie Taylor Greene. We can add, Steve Bannon. We can add all of these people that were just no intervention whatsoever. They did not and I I'm still waiting for an apology. Oh, boy. Am I waiting for an apology? But has it come? Well, last night, Tucker gave a what was it? I think it was two word response. I think it was a two word response, maybe three. Let me yeah. He just said he tweeted out, thank god, after the ceasefire was announced. Thank god. Bad hombre says, you misspelled I was wrong. Il Donato Trumpo said, and dot dot dot. Graham Allen said, we are stronger united, man. Never forget that. Britney Ray said, I'm sorry. I didn't trust the POTUS there. I fixed it for you. And absolutely I didn't I mean, that hey.

I didn't like the fact that Israel unloaded right after we made the deal. They didn't have to unload, and I didn't like the fact that the re retaliation was very strong. But in all fairness, Israel unloaded a lot. And now I hear Israel just went out because they felt it was violated by one rocket that didn't land anywhere. That's not what we want. I'll tell you. And I'm telling you, I'm not happy about that, Israel, either. So he's not and in fact, he's gone, the beyond that and has actually said, listen, Israel. Hey, Israel. If you start this mess up again, you're on your own. No more help from The US. We've we had a peace agreement. We had the deal. If you guys go back on it, well, good luck to you. It's you against Iran and anybody else that wants to join in, and good for him. I'm glad. He is very upset, very upset over what they're doing. In fact, he, dropped a little bomb there today. Two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the they're doing. Do you understand that? Do you have do you have the right answer? Yeah. Yeah. That we understand, sir. That we understand. Dropping the f bomb in front of the, in front of the American press. Yeah. We get that. We get it. In fact, we just heard today that a circuit court judge has just ruled that president Trump has gotta put money in a swear jar now. I don't know I don't know how they can do that, but they did.

It's you against Iran and anybody else that wants to join in, and good for him. I'm glad. He is very upset, very upset over what they're doing. In fact, he, dropped a little bomb there today. Two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the they're doing. Do you understand that? Do you have do you have the money? Yeah. Yeah. That we understand, sir. That we understand. Dropping the f bomb in front of the, in front of the American press. Yeah. We get that. We get it. In fact, we just heard today that a circuit court judge has just ruled that president Trump has gotta put money in a swear jar now. I don't know I don't know how they can do that, but they did. Let's go to Natalie in Welford. Natalie, welcome. How are you? I'm good. How are you? I'm great. What's on your mind? Well, I'm here with Window Depot in Spartanburg.

First time caller, you get the bell. Alright. What's up? Hey, man. I got some gout information for you. Okay. Hi, man. You wanna stay on some allopurinol from your doctor, and you wanna drink plenty of water. Yeah. If you'd look at uric acid, you'd be good. I had to give it shrimp for a while. I got all that. I can eat shrimp again. I oh, I sat down and I ate a pound of shrimp. You gotta drink plenty of water. Oh my gosh. Water. Water. Water. I appreciate it, man. Thank you, James. It was excruciating. I looked it up. I said it was only 450 calories. I said that's got to be PhD approved. That's got to be 450 calories for a pound of shrimp. Sat down, ate it all by myself. Ankle just just crunched. It just went and I was like, oh, no. What have I done? So but thank you for the, for the advice. I appreciate it. I so president Trump goes over there, bombs Iran, and I all these people losing their minds. I had do you really want me to, JJ? Do you really want me to? I I I don't know about that. I don't know. Should I play it? I don't know. Let me think. Let me think. I don't know. Should I play it? Let me just weigh this for just a second. I don't know. Okay. Here we go. Hi. There you go. Vince Vance and the Valiant's, which, by the way, if you've never heard Vince Vance and the Valiant's Christmas album, that's really great. It really is good. Interesting story about Vince Vance. Go look that up. He had he was in a custody battle with his ex wife, and it was, it was fascinating to watch. Anyway, there you go. There's Vince Vance and the Valiant bomb around. So every I had a caller had a caller that said, here's what we should do, and I think that might be right. What president Trump should have come out and done was he should have said, ladies and gentlemen, we're sick and tired of the Ayatollah's treatment of the LGBTQ community. So we're gonna bomb Iran starting tomorrow, and everybody would've been, oh, I love this man. He is standing up for the LGBTQ community. We love him. He's so wonderful, and everybody would have been on his side. Everybody would have done it. Oh, he's so he's pro LGBTQ. There you go. But now we got even people like Marjorie Taylor Greene, you know, losing her mind over this thing. And I'm kinda wondering about the future of MAGA. I really am. If these people are so willing to turn their backs on Donald Trump so quickly And not only that, some of this blatant antisemitism that's going on with a lot of these folks is pretty concerning as well. So president Trump goes over there, and he bombs Iran. He wasn't the first person to say something about Iran's nuclear program. He wasn't the first. Many have said it. Wanna hear? Here we go. The United States is clear. We will not allow Iran to acquire a nuclear weapon. If I'm the president, we will attack Iran. Whatever stage of development they might be in their nuclear weapons program in the next ten years, during which they might foolishly consider launching an attack on Israel, we would be able to totally obliterate them. That's a terrible thing to say, but those people who run Iran need to understand that. Make no mistake. A nuclear armed Iran is not a challenge that can be contained. It would threaten the elimination of Israel, the security of Gulf nations, and the stability of the global economy. It risks triggering a nuclear arms race in the region and the unraveling of the Non Proliferation Treaty. That's why a coalition of countries is holding the Iranian government accountable. And that's why The United States will do what we must to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. As long as I'm president of The United States, Iran will not get a nuclear weapon. I've made that clear when I came into office. And look, I mean, Iran has American bl ...

    And welcome back to the program. I hope I really do. I hope you guys had a fantastic weekend. I I really, really do. I hope it was good for you. Sheila and I, we went out to brunch, went to select restaurant, had a good time, did some grilling yesterday, but a funny thing happened. Just one of those little funny things that happen in life. Last weekend, our surround sound system went out. It no. I let me rephrase that. Our soundbar went out on our television, so I had to get a new one, because those little tiny television speakers, they just don't cut it. And we bought a surround sound system. Now it's not one of the big fancy schmancy. This thing wasn't wildly expensive or anything, and I've never had a surround sound system before. So I thought it was pretty interesting. So it came with the soundbar, it came with the subwoofer, and it came with some surround sound speakers, as well. And I thought it was really cool because when I'm watching golf, you know, I got the surround sound speaker to my right and she lives right over on the other side of the room. When they hit the ball, that sound comes out of the surround sound speaker, and it sounds like it's it's right next to you. And they also put the birds and the background noise in the surround sound speakers. It's that 5.1. It's really cool. And, again, I'm like a kid in a candy store because I've never had a surround sound before. Well, this weekend, I was watching golf. I was watching the, the traveler's championship, which, by the way, I was really rooting for Tommy Fleetwood on that thing. But, but they were playing the birds out of the surround side. And Arty was his art. He goes over to the bookcase where the speaker is, and he starts sniffing around because he thinks there's a bird in the bookcase. He can hear it. He can hear the bird, but he can't smell it. And he can't figure out what's going on, so he starts barking at the bookcase. And I thought it was I thought it was pretty funny. But then something kind of I was like, well, what if there wait a minute. Hold on. What if there is something in that bookcase? So I I kinda went over there and looked at it a little bit, and that satisfied him enough, and he didn't bark at it anymore. But the poor guy was so doggone confused. It was just it was absolutely adorable. I just, think the world of that guy. Alright. Well, Los Angeles Police Department. Well, Los Angeles, period. We know that they are a liberal hellhole. That's why they're called hell a. They did something this weekend that absolutely boggled my mind. It was the most ridiculous thing that they posted online. Now they deleted that post, but they put up another post. Now I'm gonna give you this is the post that they put out after they deleted the first post. And it reads, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is closely monitoring the situation overseas alongside our local state and federal partners. At this moment, there are no known threats to Los Angeles County. However, out of an abundance of caution, we are increasing patrol checks at places of worship and other sensitive locations throughout our city. The safety and security of our communities remains our top priority. We will develop we will continue to to assess and respond to any developments as they arise. Is she if you see something, say something. Now that is a perfectly reasonable post. That sounds like something a responsible sheriff's office would put out. But what was the post they put out before this one? The one that they deleted, what did that post read? Oh, you're gonna love this. This is from the LA County Sheriff's Department. Now, again, they deleted this, but, ta da, the Internet is forever. They said, our hearts go out to the victims and families impacted by recent bombings in Iran.

    I pledge allegiance to the flag of The United States Of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Oh, beautiful for spacious skies, for amber waves of grain, for purple mountain majesties above the fruit America is back. Yes, sir. America is back, thanks to the leadership of president Donald Trump, who who was having absolutely no shenanigans today from either Israel or Iran. I mean, president Trump saying, basically telling Iran or Israel, listen. The ceasefire is the ceasefire. And if you go and you start breaking the ceasefire, you're gonna do it without us. We're we're not gonna be the ones that are gonna bail you out of this. We went over there. We did what we needed to do. We destroyed Iran's nuclear capabilities. That's what we did, and that should have been our only involvement, and and hopefully it will be. Now I tried to explain this last hour, and I know that some of the, less intellectual, folks over there on the text line, didn't understand this. A couple of them, zero zero five, they couldn't understand my reasoning here. So you got basically three schools here. You got number one. You got the folks on the left that say none no involvement whatsoever. Let's hands off of Iran. Let's not even talk about it. Let's not get involved. Let's not offer support. Let's not do any of that. Just just leave it alone. It's not ours. Then you got on the opposite side, the people like Lindsey Graham that are going, no. Let's run-in full steam. Let's get boots on the ground, and let's get in there and do regime change again, and let's get into another never ending war over in Iran. And then you had the folks kind of in the middle where I and a lot of you align with president Trump. And that was like, do what we need to do and get out. We don't need to be doing regime change. We don't need to be sending boots on the ground. We don't need ground troops or anything like that. Go in. Destroy what we need to destroy to keep Iran from getting a nuclear program. Come home, and let that be it. A lot of people are like, I don't understand your reasoning, Charlie. Well, I again, you can lead someone to knowledge, but you can't make them think. But that's where we are, and and and we are not alone. Those of us that felt that way, that aligned with president Trump on this thing, we are not alone. In fact, take a listen to this from Harry Enten over there on CNN. Yeah. You know, I think there's this idea. Okay. Maybe the MAGA base wouldn't necessarily like this. Look. This is Donald Trump's Republican party. That's what I think is so important to note. GOP on The US airstrikes in Iran, 76% in the average of the two polls approved compared to just 18% who disapproved. Now I will note that is a bit higher than Donald Trump's disapproval rating within the Republican party. But overall, Republicans are with Donald Trump on this. Tucker Carlson be darned. The bottom line is he does not speak for the majority of the Republican base. The majority of the Republican base is with Donald Trump. And we can add more people than just Tucker Carlson to that. We can add Marjorie Taylor Greene. We can add, Steve Bannon. We can add all of these people that were just no intervention whatsoever. They did not and I I'm still waiting for an apology. Oh, boy. Am I waiting for an apology? But has it come? Well, last night, Tucker gave a what was it? I think it was two word response. I think it was a two word response, maybe three. Let me yeah. He just said he tweeted out, thank god, after the ceasefire was announced. Thank god. Bad hombre says, you misspelled I was wrong. Il Donato Trumpo said, and dot dot dot. Graham Allen said, we are stronger united, man. Never forget that. Britney Ray said, I'm sorry. I didn't trust the POTUS there. I fixed it for you. And absolutely I didn't I mean, that hey.

I think they're going to sell them to terrorist organizations. Yeah. Yeah. I I I think that was a a distinct possibility as well. Yep. So I appreciate it, Bob. Thank you. Let's go to Joe in Rock Hill. Joe, what's your opinion? Well, first of all, I I think people are are not asking the right questions. Why would you have to build a nuclear facility 200 feet down in the middle of a mountain for peaceful means? Yeah. That just doesn't make any sense. For nuclear energy. That yeah. Exactly. When you you have one of the largest oil reserves in the world Yeah. That energy should be very cheap for you anyway. So that doesn't make any sense that it was for peaceful means. We've already established that they spent more center fusions and more uranium than they needed for peaceful means. So why are you stockpiling it? You know? That just doesn't make any sense that people are are also up in arms about this. And I find it I find it hilarious too that they're up in arms that we we did this. Okay? Whether we did it to help Israel or not, we did it for ourselves and the rest of the world. The Middle East has gotta come to the realization, and Trump has tried to do this now on two occasions. His first trip to the Middle East, he told them, you guys gotta stop policing yourselves. And I think Saudi Arabia, I think Qatar, The UAE, I think they're all starting to realize that Iran is a problem in The Middle East. Yeah. If you go under the Shah's reign for forty years, they only had border squabbles. They weren't looking to in infiltrate in Syria. They weren't looking to be with the Houthis. They wasn't looking to be part of a Hezbollah. But since the Shah has been in power, they have asserted, their flat law to to encompass the whole Middle East, and they're not just a threat to Israel. They're a threat to Saudi Arabia. Do you think if they could take out that kingdom and take it over, they wouldn't? Oh, yeah. Iraq for how many years back and forth? Right. Okay? They're they're they're in Syria. So people gotta start smartening up. That region has been under siege since the beginning of the Bible, and it will be to the end. So if we can kinda calm it down a little bit, then we have to do what we have to do for for everybody's safety. It's not just America. I agree, Joe. Thank you so much for your call.

I decided today that I was gonna cut the grass. Yeah. Yeah. This afternoon. Well, it was almost the afternoon. I decided I was gonna cut the grass. It was hot out there. Gonna be even hotter in the next couple of days. So, you guys just be aware of that. Alright. What have we got now? I have no idea. Let me just see. I I think I can get the live stream up right now, and hopefully, that will work. For some reason, my, my, monitor, freezes up on me from time to time, but but now we are we are up there and running. That is always good. Well, this weekend, president Trump did what he we all knew he was going to do eventually. He said that he was gonna give Iran. Well, he said he's gonna make a decision on any sort of, an attack on Iran within two weeks. And it was well within two weeks that president Trump decided to send these b two bombers that, by the way, flew for thirty five hours straight. Thirty five hours straight. Yes. They've got bathrooms in them and all all of that, but they threw flew for thirty five hours straight. They refueled midair, did the bombing run, destroyed, from what we can gather, Iran's nuclear capabilities, and then they returned home safely. Now here's here's what what happened here. This was unbelievable. It was absolutely amazing. You know what the most amazing part of, about it was? No leaks. No leaks from the state department. No leaks from the Department of Defense. No leaks from the White House. No leaks from Congress. You wanna know why? President Trump didn't tell him. The Democrats are out there whining, Rydell. President Trump should have told us. He should have told us what he was going to do. No. He didn't he didn't tell you what he was gonna do because you know what you would have done. You would have run run to the New York Times under condition of anonymity. You would have run to the Wall Street Journal. You would have run to the Associated Press, and you would have done what General Milley said he would have done with China, and that was you would have warned you would have warned Iran that this was coming. This was done under such amazing secrecy. It really I mean, I'm I'm shocked. I really am that nobody was given prior warning to all of this. That's pretty darn cool. But see what you can do when you don't tell Democrats things? Yeah. Because we know what they would have done exactly what I just said. Well, today, Iran decided that they had to put on some show of, fake machismo and fire six ballistic missiles at our base there near near, Qatar. Well, in fact, Duran, posted a video of one of their missiles lifting off. This is what happens when you mess with us. We will send these missiles. And, they don't show the missile being shot down, picked right out of the sky by, by defense, missiles over there, but they had to do something just to save face. Just to make sure they were worth their beard, they had to go out there and do something. Well, it wasn't much of anything, but we are hearing right now. We got some, breaking news. Only one source on this. I don't I don't have any other information that American fighter jets are now scrambling in Saudi Arabia. If we can get that confirmed, we will certainly bring that to you, as soon as possible. But, again, Iran firing six ballistic missiles in Qatar, all of them were intercepted. No casualties. And we're also hearing that the White House was informed of these attacks. So in my opinion, this was more a symbolic gesture. Just just a symbolic gesture. Right? Just to say, hey. Hey. We're we're we're mad, and and we're gonna have a little temper tantrum here. We don't we hope nobody gets hurt, but there you go. But is this gonna be the only one? Folks, I'm I'm thinking Iran is becoming quickly deplete well, first of all, Israel depleted a lot o ...

    And welcome to the program on your Tuesday afternoon. Glad to have you along with us. I tell you. Alright. So, president Trump is, meeting with advisers right now in the, the Situation Room at the White House. Don't know what's gonna come out of this today. No idea. Now the president tweeted earlier today just, two words, unconditional surrender to the folks in Iran. And this is I'm I'm be honest with you, folks. This is one of those issues where I'm going, Because I see both sides of this issue. I I really do. Now do we need Iran to have nuclear weapons? Well, no. That would be a bad thing. On the other hand, do we wanna commit US troops to going in and fighting a war, that was ultimately I mean, Israel was was the one that took these preemptive strikes against Iran. So is this our fight? Just the same way as we look at what's going on with Russia and Ukraine, little bit different situation there. But how do you guys feel about this? That's what I would like to know, because I remember. And any of you folks out there with any gray hair on you whatsoever, you remember there was a time where the sentiment in this country was all about bombing Iran. Remember this from Vince Vance and the Valiance. And we all know after the the, you know, the the Iranian hostage crisis and all that, everybody was talking about, doing away and and basically just wiping the floor with with Iran. But now people are kinda like, I don't know if we wanna be getting in there and doing all of this. So I would like to know what you guys think. Should we be getting involved in Iran, or should we alright. So there's a couple of things here. Number one, should we get involved directly in attacking Iran? Should we let Israel handle it on their own completely, or should we support Israel in their attacks on Iran? The what now you gotta admit, what Israel did with this thing was absolutely phenomenal. They had, from what we're hearing, they had planes in Iran ready to take off. They smuggled fighter jets into Iran. That's amazing. We all they had assets inside Iran. They had drones. They had fighter planes. When they gave the go, they went. And this is something that had from what I was hearing, had been hearing is, this is something that had been planned for a couple of decades now, getting ready for this particular moment. Let's see. Charlie, nukes in two weeks and death to America has been the narrative for forty five years. So, so now we're gonna trigger them? I don't know. Charlie, make glass with all that sand. There he is, another one. Charlie, no, no problem with kneecapping Iran. They earned that, but there's no reason it should turn into a blank show that like Iraq and Afghanistan did. My problem is leadership to being too cavalier with other people's lives. Charlie, that sure brings back some memories, doesn't it? Yeah. Vince Vance and the Valjens. Charlie, you can't stop evil with a hug, sell your cloak, and buy a sword until my return was said for a reason. Okay. Charlie, remember what you said last week, trust Trump? I don't think so, but those are your words. Well, I'm still gonna trust Trump on this. Charlie, Iran with nukes poses, such a high threat to The US that we need to deliver the MOABs for our own nation's survival. Several people saying, let Israel handle this. Alright. There you go. We'd love to know what you guys think about it. Let's go to John in Greenville and talk to him. John, if I can push that dog on button. John, welcome. Hey, Charlie. How are you doing, bud? I'm great, man. What's going on? I just wanted to give you a quick answer to your question there. Okay. And the answer is all of the above. Okay. And they're for several reasons. I do think that The United States should be involved. I do think that The United States should support Israel. Mhmm. I do think that The United States should supply Israel with whatever they need, but I think that The United States should go further. One, with a good air assau ...

    Good gracious. It's already 06:00. Welcome, six o'clockers. We appreciate you tuning in this afternoon. Well, protests all over the country talking about no kings this weekend. We had riots in Los Angeles. Also, Seattle, those did not gather a whole lot of attention. And, of course, she had the mainstream media denying all of this even happening. Well, one of the other talking points that the lying media keeps telling you is that oh, Charlie. Donald Trump is departing innocent people. That's all he's doing is out there. He's just rounding up people off the streets and departing them. There's horrendous people. There's a good harbor. No. Not really. 75%. 75%. In the first just now this is just from the first one hundred days of the Trump administration. 75% of the illegal aliens that were rounded up and scheduled for deport, deportation. 75% were violent criminals, and that's a lot. DH DHS responded to a CNN report suggesting that a very, very small percentage of illegal aliens taken into custody by ICE were serious criminal had serious criminal convictions. Well, that's fake news. Secretary Noem has unleashed ICE to target the worst of the worst, including gang members, murderers, and rapists. In president Trump's first one hundred days, 75% of vice arrests were criminal illegal aliens with convictions or pending charges. That's remained the messaging of DHS throughout the deportation process. They're going after the worst of the worst. And now Donald Trump is talking about ramping it up in heavily Democrat controlled cities. Good. That reality was recently seen in a recent ICE operation in Los Angeles, the one that sparked all of those riots. The ICE protest wormed their way around the country, hitting Newark, New Jersey, San Antonio, Texas, and more. Despite reading from Breitbart here. However, despite the widespread outrage and protests, DHS kept a running list of some of the criminals that it has arrested at part of its operation, in LA. DHS described these as some of the worst criminals with the with criminal histories, including but not limited to sexual battery, willful cruelty to a child, assault with a deadly weapon, grand theft, child molestation, second degree murder, assault with the with, intent to commit rape and more. So no. I'm sorry, CNN. These aren't in his these aren't Maryland dads out there. That's not what these people are. First of all, they're in this country illegally. They need to go home just like that young lady from California who overstayed her visa in Mexico for a hundred and eighty days. They didn't ask her why she was there. They didn't ask her if she would like to stay. They just said, you're gonna sit here until you pay us the $380 for your plane ticket back to The United States. And they made her pay her own way, her own way. These people are not the angels that the mainstream media keeps making them out to be. But how does the American people feel about this? And I know we saw Bunchy the Owls protesting this weekend. I know we saw that. But how does actual America feel about it? President Trump has seen a net approval rating increase in his handling of immigration. That is from a new weekly economist YouGov poll. The survey asked respondents if they approved or disapproved of the way Trump is handling immigration across the board. 49% approve of Trump's handling of immigration compared to 45% who disapprove, giving the president a net approval of plus four. Opinions are sharply divided among party lines. 85% of Democrats, for for example, disapprove of Trump's handling of immigration. Only 12 approve. Meanwhile, 88% of Republicans approve of his handling of immigration, and just 10% disapprove. A plurality of independence approve of Trump's handling of the issue, 46% compared to 44% who disapprove. And this coincides with a morning consult survey showing that a majority of voters, 51%, approve of Trump's handling of immigration. So all those people that you saw, the old whi ...
