And welcome to the program on your Wednesday afternoon. Very nice day outside today, but we start out with some bad news. There was a shooting a mass shooting at a, in Minneapolis at the Annunciation Catholic Church and School right there in Minneapolis. Police say that two children are dead. 17 people were injured, including 14 children. The gunman, took his life. That's a key thing. Took his life inside the church. Minneapolis police officer Brian O'Hara told reporters that the children who were killed as they were killed as they sat in pews were age eight and 10. Two of the 14 children injured are in critical condition. He said the coward who fired these shots ultimately took his own life in the rear of the church. Now there is video online of this person that was the shooter. Born Robert, changed his name to Robin, the female spelling of that, and it's, left behind a video manifesto on one of the weapons that the shooter had. It said, kill Donald Trump. Several other things were written on there. He appeared to have a target with the face of Jesus at the head of it. Robin Westman, like I said, who posted a manifesto on social media just a little while ago, including a video showing the words kill Donald Trump written on a firearm. Had other things written on some of the magazines and the firearms that were in his possession. But this was another folks, let me tell you something. These people over on the left, they're always talking about, we all we gotta stop the right wing violence. We gotta take a real hard, serious look at what's going on with some of this left wing violence. And I'll just give you I'll give you a couple of great examples here. So we got the Minnesota church shooter, trans, Republican party firebombing, gender fluid, Nashville shooter, trans, Colorado test, Tesla arsonist, trans. Colorado Springs shooter, nonbinary. Aberdeen shooter, trans. Denver school shooter, trans. Iowa school shooter, trans slash gender fluid. AMC stabber, trans. Anybody else starting to see a pattern here? Because I certainly am because it's glaring. When we normalize mental illness, this is what happens. And, automatically, the Democrats came out, and they started I mean, even even before we knew anything about this, even before that we we saw the the video manifesto, even before we knew the shooter's name, even before we knew the the name of the victims. Chuck Schumer is coming out talking about gun control. Then you've got Amy Klobuchar. She's out there blaming you. Think about guns and all the work we've done to ban these, automatic rifles and Not automatic. Was not automatic. Not automatic. There's a huge difference between automatic and semiautomatic. To, do something when it comes to, the background checks and everything, and we keep getting thwarted. We were able to pass a limited measure on a bipartisan base. Okay. Background checks would not have stopped this. Back this person, according to police, had minimal interactions with the police. We're talking bare minimum, maybe a traffic ticket or something like that. Let's go to John in Greenwood and talk to him about the shooting. John, welcome. Hey, Charlie. How are you doing, buddy? I'm good. What's up, man? Well, I just wanted to chime in on this. I think, you know, describing, you know, how this how these mass shootings are going, I think I've solved the problem as far as, you know, background checks go. Okay. Instead of doing an actual background check, let's just check their affiliation, what party they're with. And if they're Democrat, they don't get a gun. How about that? I would love to see that. That brought that might solve a lot of problems. You're right. Let ...

H1 - Segment 2 - Wed Aug 27 2025 - Yesterday we got the news that Cracker Barrel has reversed course And welcome back to the program. Glad to have you along with us on this Wednesday afternoon. Let's see here. Alright. So, we'll talk about the school shooting, church shooting, coming up more in just a second. But yesterday, we got the news that Cracker Barrel had reversed course. Now this is what they they came in. They did all of this hullabaloo about changing, you know, the way they look and and changing the logo and all of that stuff. And you guys absolutely I mean, you lost your your heads about it. I don't mean that in a bad way. I mean that in a good way because rightfully you should have because this is this is one of, you know, a lot of people's favorite places. So they're going into they make this unbelievable marketing change, which cost them, like, 7 was it $700,000,000 that they were doing this whole renovation with? Well, you guys let your voice be heard. And then yesterday, they came along and they changed it back. They said, alright. We've heard you. Now first, they put out that ridiculous statement, which basically said, sorry, not sorry. But then I think the shareholders got to got to talking to the CEO, and they were like, okay. We'll go back to the old thing. But here's what really he was one of the bad things that really happened. They started people started looking at Cracker Barrel. Cracker Barrel used to be part of Americana, used to be a great place to go, nostalgia, all of that. You could go and get good food, and you could just you know? And it was a thing. It was just a thing, and everybody just assumed that that was a good thing. But when you start looking into Cracker Barrel and what they actually stand for as a corporation, Well, this is this is one of the worst thing that that could have happened to them because now people started looking into them, saying, hey. Let's check out Cracker Barrel a little bit more and see what's going and did you know they have a thing called porch to pride? You know, all the Cracker Barrels have that front porch. Well, they got a thing called porch to pride. Not only that, they're one of the biggest supporters of the Nashville pride parade and festivities. Saw a video last night of a a drag queen show sponsored by Cracker Barrel. So I a a lot of things a lot of times, things just aren't what they seem. So one of the questions I'm gonna have for you today, Charlie bay Charlie, I read that they basically got a billion dollars worth of free advertising on that stunt. Well, that might just offset what they spent on the remodel. Maybe. Because I know a lot of people out there just aren't going back. And when they find out more about Cracker Barrel and what they really stand for at a corporate level level, I think a lot of people are gonna say, you know what? I'm gonna go somewhere else. I'm gonna find something else. So my question for you today is now that they've decided to keep uncle Herschel leaning on the Cracker Barrel, not only on the road signs, not only on the menus, but also on the store sign itself, is all forgiven. Will you be patronizing them again, or have you learned out more about the corporate, culture of Cracker Barrel? As he Charlie said, I think it's racist. They call it cracker. I know it actually has to do with the barrel. That's the cracker barrel, barrel full of crackers. Charlie not going back, to they they should have let me know about it. There you go. So, Charlie, why does the left always say it's the gun? We'll get to that in just a second. But I do think people need to look more into Cracker Barrel, and especially somebody out there named Robbie Starbuck. Now Robbie Starbuck has been unbelievable at getting corporations to change their DEI, policies, their pride affiliations. Like I said, he's been very successful. He's gotten I mean, he's got a long hit list here. Tractor Supply Company, John Deere, Harley Davidson, Brown F ...

I this mass shooting stuff to me has gone on until when a plane crashes, Charlie, we put every single piece of it back together. Right. Okay? Because we wanna know what caused it. We don't want ...

Welcome back to the program. Let's go to the WRID talk line. We'll talk to Matt in Greenville. Matt, welcome. Hey, Charlie. What's going on, Matt? I read a book in 02/2008, and I remember because I was recouping from an accident. So I remember the date. And it was called While Europe Slept, and a gay guy wrote it. And I can't remember if he was from Copenhagen or Amsterdam, but he was talking about the way they were you know, gay guys were getting treated in Europe. And the one thing I remember him talking about was the percentages. And he said when Muslims get to be about 30% of the population, you you're gonna start getting no go zones and Sharia law courts, and the politicians are gonna get scared. Because if they if they buck the if they buck the trend, they'll get killed. Yeah. And he said it would all in Europe, it would all come to a head in about 2030. And this was before all the Turks moved to Turkey, to Germany, and all the Pakistanis moved to, England. Right. Right. And so it's about five years ahead of schedule of what he said. But, you know, it it's it it it it looked to me, it looked like the guy had a crystal ball. You know what, though? I mean, you, Matt, you you said, Matt, that, it's happening before he said, I don't really think we've hit the crescendo of all of this yet. Well, it hadn't happened here. Yeah. I'm talking about, like, what's going on in England because I'm gonna keep this g rated. Yeah. But I don't I don't going on in England with these assaulting women gangs. Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. I don't think that's reached its peak yet. And I Oh, no. And I tell you what, I mean Well, I tell you what, Matt. If you'll listen off here, I'll tell you exactly what I'm talking about. I wanna go to Janice first and talk to her. Janice, welcome. Hi, Charlie. I listen to your show just about every day. Thank you. I hear what I say. You're welcome. I wanna say something that I have been thinking about for quite some time. We all know that years ago when Trump was, in politics in in in in New York, he he was loved by the by the left. They gave him words. They didn't think he was a racist because, people gave him awards for being great to to black people. He got he got the NAACP award with Rosa Parks. Right. Now well, let me say one thing that bothers me. I think we're letting the left get away with this narrative. We hate Trump. He's a horrible person. He's a Nazi. He says, listen. They would hate anybody in the conservative Republican party or even an independent that wants to run. Anybody who that believes in law and order and that believes like Trump does that we are supposed to pay attention to the citizens of this country first and not cater to all these people that have walked in over over the border, and and they're gonna do this and that for them. They this is all to do them, their voting, and get them into the into the country so that they can become the permanent political party. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That's absolutely the plan. We do a misjustice to Trump and and everyone that is a conservative by saying, oh, yes. They hate Trump. No. It's not that they hate Trump. They will hate anybody that wants to be a law abiding person who cares about this country. Well, that's what that's what I've always said. If if you think they hate Trump, they really hate you. I appreciate it, Janice. Thank you very much. So let's go back to what, the last caller Matt was talking about. And I got a text that kinda ties into this because we were talking about that young 14 year old Scottish girl who was on the verge of being assaulted by an immigrant, and she pulled out a knife and a hatchet, and they arrested her and sent her to jail. Okay? Now if you look at what's going on in Scotland, as far as rapes are concerned, this is is gonna boggle your mind. There is a new Scottish law guidelines, and it says the rights of rapes rape victims should not be prioritized over their attackers. Let me read that to you ag ...

And welcome back to the program. Let's go to the WRD talk line. We'll talk to Sam in Greenville. Sam, what's going on with you? Hey, man. How's it going, Charlie? How are you doing today? I'm doing fantastic, buddy. What's going on with you? Not too much, man. But I just really, you know, I first of all and, you know, I love you and everything, man. I listen to you just about every day. Thank you. I the Mad World thing, man, that's a little demonic, man. I gotta say. I just wanna appreciate it. Have you ever been? Yeah. I've been. I took my kids and everything, and it just scared the the crap out of them, man. It was terrible. It's a hey. Listen. I know, man. But for those people that love that, they love it. They love it. It's been going on for fifteen years. I know. I know. But it's a bit demonic for my taste. But here here's my question here, Charles. So I've been promised, man, nothing but lower prices and lower gas prices, lower grocery prices, you know, all this stuff. And and all I'm saying is it just going skyrocketing right up in the sky, man. Every single day. I haven't I haven't noticed anything skyrocketing, and I go to the grocery store too. I work at a grocery store, brother. I see it every single day. Like, I work in a grocery store, and I see every single day. I'm I'm every Wednesday when I gotta put So what you so wait wait. Hold on. So this up. So you've got some grievances with Trump. Even though inflation is stagnant, unemployment is stagnant name. You've well I did not say else would you be talking about? You just put my point across very well, sir. Thank you very much. Who else would you be talking about? Are are you would you be talking about maybe the owner of your grocery store? About maybe the grocery store chain increasing the prices? Maybe that might be the problem, young Sam. Let's go to Billy in Greer and talk to him. Billy, welcome. Hey, Charlie. How are you? I got a couple of things to talk on. Alright. First is burning the flag. Yeah. I was a boy scout raised up rural county. You do not burn the flag. You can bring it to the Boy Scouts of America. We will take and we will retire that American flag the way it's properly supposed to be. Right. Second is who they're going after. I am a descendant of Melungeon. I don't know if any of your viewers know about hell, I'm 50 years old, and I just learned about Melungeon a couple of years ago. Yeah. And I am of Melungeon descent. And what is that? A Melungeon is we are some they say we could be possibly the lost people of Roanoke. Ah, where is that? Yes, sir. Where the people, they they were left there. Some of the English people went back to England, and they never come back for so many years. And the people of Roanoke wound up migrating with immigrants of Portuguese, Native Americans, African Americans, all kinds of people. So who are they gonna go after next? I mean, I'm all American. I'm just an American. They're coming after you first then. You're you're you're absolutely coming after, they're coming after you next. Billy, I appreciate it, buddy. Thank you very much. But who they don't wanna go after are the criminals. They hate people that wanna go after the criminals. So CNN went out, and they were trying to interview, a young woman on the streets of Chicago about crime. Let's take a listen to what she said. Our first reaction was that this is a good thing. I think that the governor as well as, the mayor should be on board with it just so we can get a bit more of security in Chicago the way that we need. The the crime has dropped since 2024. Do you feel like the city feels safer? No. Not at all. No. Especially with the police being defunded. Yeah. Exact see? And this is a young African American woman on the streets of Chicago. Crime has been going no. Gosh. CNN. They're absolutely worthless at news. They ought to take one of those in at ins out of CNN because they don't do news. That'll be CP and cable propaganda network b ...

Okay? Now if you look at what's going on in Scotland, as far as rapes are concerned, this is is gonna boggle your mind. There is a new Scottish law guidelines, and it says the rights of rapes rape victims should not be prioritized over their attackers. Let me read that to you aga ...

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, spacious skies, for amber waves of grain, for purple mountain America is back. Yes, sir. And I know the Democrats are kicking and screaming about it at every chance they get. The latest thing that's got them oh, I can't believe in Thomas Massie is coming talking out of it, speaking out about this executive order by president Trump on burning the flag. Now I saw I saw this story today over on Facebook, and I was like, I just had to hang my head because it was from a local television station. And I'm using that in quotes local television station because, apparently, this Fox affiliate gets their news from CNN. Oh, that's lovely. That's perfect. So I wanna read to you the headline. Now remember, words I love when Rush Limbaugh used to say this. Words mean things. So the headline over at WYFF, man arrested after burning American flag in front of White House. So what does that lead you to believe? That leads you to believe that a man was arrested for burning an American flag at the White House. But that's not the story. That's nowhere near the story. So they're going to say a man was arrested after burning an American flag in front of the White House. Jay Carey, who identified himself as a 20 combat veteran, said he did it to protest president Donald Trump. Secret service officers arrested him and doused the burning flag with a fire extinguisher. Now what do I always tell you? Gotta go down to at least the fourth or fifth paragraph to get the actual story. That's where we find the actual story. Park police, which has jurisdiction over the area, said it's illegal to light a fire on land controlled by the National Park Service except in designated areas. So this twenty year combat veteran was not arrested for burning an American flag. He was arrested for burning anything. You can't burn anything on Parkland. You can't. You gotta have you gotta have permission. You can't set up you can't take the New York Times and set it on fire. Can't take a milk carton and set it on fire. You can't do that. It's not allowed, and you will be arrested if you do because it's illegal. The fact that it was an American flag really is not even germane to the story. He was arrested for burning anything, but, boy, they ran with that. The incident came just hours after Trump signed an executive order enacting stricter penalties for flag burning. In 1989, the Supreme Court ruled flag burning is protected form of speech under the First Amendment. Okay. What does president Trump's executive order actually say? Okay? Alright. The order does not explicitly criminalize flag burning. Ta da. Ta let me say it again. Ta da. It does not explicitly criminalize flag burning, but it directs the justice department led by attorney general Pam Bondi to vigorously prosecute, are you ready, individuals who desecrate the flag in ways that violate existing laws, such as those involving violent crimes, hate crimes, property, destruction, or incitement of imminent lawless action. It also instructs federal agencies to refer flag burn flag desecration cases to state or local authorities if they violate local laws, like open burning restrictions or disorderly conduct statutes. So if you're out there and you're at a protest and you're burning the American flag and there's a flag, no, you know, no burning or a burning ban in place, guess what? You're gonna go to jail. Good. That's not protected speech. So all these people that are out there, oh, I can't believe but you know what? I there were a lot of people out there that actually support this. I want you to listen to this one senator, from New York. I I forget her name. Oh, that's right. Hillary Rodham Clinton. So I hope, mister president, that we can pass a law that criminalizes flag burning and desecration. I agree that, this burning, this desecration that can happen to our flag ...

The last story I told you about, I credited WYFF for that headline, and I apologize. It was actually, Fox Carolina, that ran that story. However, I went over and I checked on WYFF's website, and they ran the exact same story only from the Associated Press. So all of these local news stations are going along with it. In fact, I'm looking at a guy right now, over on, x, breaking. A veteran was just arrested outside the White House for burning the American flag. In 1989, the Supreme Court ruled that flag burning is protected under speech under the first amendment. Oh, oh, do you mean that that means that I can go into a school in a classroom and I can burn the American flag because it's protected under freedom of speech? Is is that what you're telling me? Oh, oh, does that mean that I can go to a store that sells propane, and I can stand in front of those propane canisters, and I can burn the American flag and nobody can say anything about it because that's protected speech? Is that what you're telling me? Are you telling me that I can burn the American flag anywhere and under any circumstance that I want? Is that what you're telling me? Because it is protected by the first amendment. That's what you're telling me? I can go out into a hospital room where a patient is on oxygen and burn the American flag because it's protected under freedom of speech. This guy didn't get arrested for burning the American flag. He got arrested because he burned something. He burned anything. That's that's just it. It wasn't the flag. The flag was inconsequential. You can't burn anything in front of the White House, period. Man, I'm telling you, these people, they're even even these so called journalists out there, completely missing everything because they've got one thing in common, their unbelievable hatred of Donald Trump. We hate him so much. We won't even pay attention to the truth anymore. We won't we won't even oh my goodness. They're crazy. They're literally nuts. Over at CNN, they are revealed that, the Democrats are actually suffering from depression. Duh. The problem that he is facing is that the depression And he's talking about the head of the RNC right now. The problem that he I'm sorry. He's talking about the head of the DNC right now. The problem that he is facing is that the depression among Democrats is really there, and he has a lot of, both mental and, literal debts that, he has to be paying at the, at the DNC. There's been a lot of problem with fundraising, a lot of Democrats who are not, willing to put the money there. And also, millions of debt from Kamala Harris' campaign that I get into in the story up on our site that has never really been reported before exactly what happened. And even hundreds of thousand dollars of debt, or or payments that are going to Joe Biden's legal bills for the oversight hearings that are, on Capitol Hill. It's a lot of things that are coming together and making it even more difficult for Democrats as they are trying to figure out the way forward into the midterms next year and beyond. Yeah. They are really hurting. Right now, the DNC only has $14,000,000 cash on hand. $14,000,000. And they have agreed to pay Kamala Harris's campaign debts. We're talking about millions of dollars. Kamala Harris ended her failed $1,500,000,000 campaign with $20,000,000 of debt. $20,000,000, and the DNC is gonna cover that. Now since then, old Kamala Harris has been doing something kinda kinda backstabbingly. Harris has been raising money from donors without disclosing the money was actually going to pay off her campaign debt. Oh, maybe somebody ought to be looking in the into that over the, federal elections commission. FEC ought to come up with some sort of an investigation, raising money from donors, thinking it's gonna go to whatever campaign, but it's not. It's gonna go to hers. 15,000,000. Well, I guess I guess Beyonce doesn't come cheap. I guess Megan Thee Stallion and Bruce Springsteen. I gu ...

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 purple mountain majesties above the fruit America is back. Yes, sir. And I know the Democrats are kicking and screaming about it at every chance they get. The latest thing that's got them oh, I can't believe even Thomas Massie is coming talking out about speaking out about this executive order by president Trump on burning the flag. Now I saw I saw this story today over on Facebook, and I was like, I just had to hang my head because it was from a local television station. And I'm using that in quotes local television station because, apparently, this Fox affiliate gets their news from CNN. Oh, that's lovely. That's perfect. So I wanna read to you the headline. Now remember, words I love when Rush Limbaugh used to say this. Words mean things. So the headline over at WYFF, man arrested after burning American flag in front of White House. So what does that lead you to believe? That leads you to believe that a man was arrested for burning an American flag at the White House. But that's not the story. That's nowhere near the story. So they're going to say a man was arrested after burning an American flag in front of the White House. Jay Carey, who identified himself as a twenty year combat veteran, said he did it to protest president Donald Trump. Secret service officers arrested him and doused the burning flag with a fire extinguisher. Now what do I always tell you? Gotta go down to at least the fourth or fifth paragraph to get the actual story. That's where we find the actual story. Park police, which has jurisdiction over the area, said it's illegal to light a fire on land controlled by the National Park Service except in designated areas. So this twenty year combat veteran was not arrested for burning an American flag. He was arrested for burning anything. You can't burn anything on Parkland. You can't. You gotta have you gotta have permission. You can't set up you can't take the New York Times and set it on fire. Can't take a milk carton and set it on fire. You can't do that. It's not allowed, and you will be arrested if you do because it's illegal. The fact that it was an American flag really is not even germane to the story. He was arrested for burning anything. But, boy, they ran with that. The incident came just hours after Trump signed an executive order enacting stricter penalties for flag burning. In 1989, the Supreme Court ruled flag burning is protected form of speech under the first amendment. Okay. What does president Trump's executive order actually say? Okay? Alright? The order does not explicitly criminalize flag burning. Ta da. Ta let me say it again. Ta da. It does not explicitly criminalize flag burning, but it directs the justice department led by attorney general Pam Bondi to vigorously prosecute, are you ready, individuals who desecrate the flag in ways that violate existing laws, such as those involving violent crimes, hate crimes, property, destruction, or incitement of imminent lawless action. It also instructs federal agencies to refer flag burn flag desecration cases to state or local authorities if they violate local laws, like open burning restrictions or disorderly conduct statutes. So if you're out there and you're at a protest and you're burning the American flag and there's a flag, no, you know, no burning or a burning ban in place, guess what? You're gonna go to jail. Good. That's not protected speech. So all these people that are out there, oh, I can't believe but you know what? I there were a lot of people out there that actually support this. I want you to listen to this one senator, from New York. I I forget her name. Oh, that's right. Hillary Rodham Clinton. So I hope, mister president, that we can pass a law that criminalizes flag bu ...

Hey, Charlie. Let's talk. It's the right talk show. Charlie. Welcome. This is the Charlie James Show. Now we're talking. News talk ninety eight nine. The voice of The Carolinas. Welcome to the program on your Tuesday afternoon. Thank you so much for tuning in. What a wonderful, beautiful day we got going on outside. Gonna get even nicer tonight. Loads are gonna be getting down there. Upper fifties, early, or, low sixties. That's gonna be really, really nice. I I've got a question for you guys, to start the show off with. What are you people doing over there in Greenwood? What is the what is going on with you folks? And your earthquakes, what are you doing over there? You having you a big party over there or something? Everybody's jumping up and down? Can you believe the amount of earthquakes that Greenwood has had? This is from let's see. A cluster of small earthquakes has shaken communities in Greenwood County, South Carolina with the US Geological Survey confirming at least 13 quakes since August 19. 13. I know what it is. I know what it is. 13. That's Taylor Swift's lucky number. And now she's gotten engaged. You guys were just ramping up the whole engagement thing for I know I know you people. Most of the seismic activity was recorded near Coronica, an unincorporated community about seven miles east of Greenwood according to the USGS. 11 of the earthquakes struck within a sixty four hour span from August 23 to August 25 with magnitude ranging from 1.7 to three point zero. Two of the strongest quakes, a 2.9 and a three point zero, struck early August 23. Reports of shaking, were widespread with the three point o magnitude tremor, and that was felt as far away as Rhode Island where I was. I didn't notice any shaking when I was on Rhode Island, but, again, I was at Taylor Swift's house. Not technically. Not actually in her house, but I was there on the outside of her house. But, anyway, it's all Taylor Swift today because she and, Kelsey, got engaged. So I know nobody cares. I don't either. But, it's pretty amazing. South Carolina Emergency Management also confirmed another 1.7 magnitude earthquake, Northwest of Corona around 05:04 yesterday afternoon. Didn't feel that one either. Man, that's a lot of earthquakes. You guys got so we had a 2.2, 1.7, 2.9, three point o, 2.5, 1.9, and yada yada yada. Man, I'm telling you. You got a little got a little earthquake cluster going on over there in Greenwood. So y'all be careful out there, man. You never know when the big one is gonna hit. Well, the Democrat National Committee, the DNC, they're having their annual meeting this week in Minneapolis of all places, and they have done something today. They started out with this. It was a resolution to condemn the first six months of the Trump presidency. Let's now move to resolution number two, condemning the first six months of the second Trump administration discussion. Seeing no further discussion, all those in favor signify by saying aye. Aye. Any opposed? Resolution two passes. So they condemned the first six months of the president's administration, 47. Right? So what are they actually condemning? What are they here's and, boy, I tell you what, here's what what I always say, you just look at what they applaud. What is this saying? Your booze don't affect me. I've seen what you applaud. Look at what they applaud. Look at what they love to hate. Deporting criminal illegal alien aliens. They don't like that. Securing the border. Oh. Exposing government waste, fraud, and abuse. Oh, how dare they? Cracking down on crime in US cities. Oh, no. No. Can't have that. Securing peace deals. No. Banning men from invading women's private spaces, stopping the chemical and surgical castration of children, ending radical political indoctrination in schools, creating historic trade deals, bringing trillions of dollars worth of investment to The United States. These are the things that the Democrats do not like. They don't like tha ...

Charlie speaks. You listen on your time. Get the show on demand. Text podcast to 809050989. The Charlie Jane Show on News Talk 989, w o r d. The voice of The Carolinas. Here's what I'm and I always always use this, this analogy with Trump. He's it's just like the television show House. Just like the TV show House. Every episode, somebody comes in, they got this strange disorder or disease, and House says, well, it's it's this. And everybody goes, no. It's not that. It doesn't have this symptom and that symptom and that symptom and all of that. And House is like, I know what it is. Now you don't, House. You're an idiot. And then at the end of the episode, it always turns out that House was right. You know, it's it's basically every episode of House. So now they're all like, oh, I can't believe Trump is doing this, and I can't believe. You are learning you are running out of things very quickly for you not to believe Trump is doing. Oh, I can't believe he's gonna do this. Oh, oh, I can't believe Trump is imposing all those tariffs. How have those worked out? We're we're we're bringing in what? $260,000,000,000 over that into the treasury because of tariffs? 260 and it's more than that, actually, once you annualize it. Oh, I can't believe it. Well, just sit back and watch. That's what I'm gonna do. This is a guy that I voted for. This is a guy I support. So when president Trump says, hey. You know what? We're gonna take troops into Washington DC, and we're gonna clean that town up. I'm like, okay. Let's see what goes on here. And he's been an amazing success. There are people now able to walk the streets of Washington DC. They can do that now. They can go out in public. They're not worried about being, you know, robbed and mugged and beaten and raped. Yeah. So I'm just gonna let these things play out. So then I'm hearing all of this stuff, and I'm we're gonna talk about this coming up in a little bit. Charlie. Oh, Charlie. Can you believe that Donald Trump has made it illegal to burn the American flag? Can you believe that's what he did? Oh, Charlie. I can't apparently, all you read was the headlines. All you read were the headlines. You know nothing about what the executive order actually says. Well, we'll break that down for you coming up in just a wee bit. But right now, they're talking about maybe, and he's not gonna send troops. He's not gonna send the National Guard into Chicago without the governor asking. That's what Trump said. But here's old JB Pritzker, also known as the, the state puffed marshmallow man. Here he is. To tell the president that his proposed actions will make our jobs harder and the lives of our residents worse. Earlier today in the Oval Office, Donald Trump looked at the assembled cameras and asked for me personally to say, mister president, can you do us the honor of protecting our city? Instead, I say, mister president, do not come to Chicago. You are neither wanted here nor needed here. Your remarks about this effort over the last several weeks have betrayed a continuing slip in your mental faculties. What an idiot. What an idiot. So what they're doing in these country in these cities all across America, the Democrat run cities, they're actually fudging the books. They're cooking the books on crime. They're they're they're listing homicides as accidental deaths. They're downgrading assaults. They're not even counting some violent assaults. They're not doing that. So they're cooking the books on crime to make themselves look better. Meanwhile, who is actually being hurt? The citizens of places like Chicago. In fact, the governor of Maryland, Wes Moore, has said that over 300,000 people have left Baltimore because of crime. Remember when Trump called Baltimore a blank hole and the media went all crazy about it? It's a rat infested I'd love this. It was great. He called it a rat infested blank hole. So they they they sent a reporter out, and this reporter was out in Baltimore. And s ...

Welcome back to the program. Let's go to the WORD talk line. We'll talk to Gerald in Cowpens. How are you doing, Gerald? Alright, my brother. Hope glad that you're back, my man. I'm glad to be back. What's up? Hey. Are the oysters in season in Rhode Island? You know, because down here They are. Down here because down here, it's always the month with an r in it. Yeah. Yeah. I'd say it's a little different up there, but they are in season, and they are fantastic. Sheila and I went out, Saturday night and had three dozen oysters between the two of us. Unbelievable. But we, you know, have gotten back and forgotten how to do everything around here. Let's go with this. 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 America is back. Yes, sir. Alright. Let's go back to the WRID chalk line. We'll talk to Paul in Hodges. Paul, what's going on with you, man? Hey, man. I'm just trying to, tell tell everybody that on. I think president Trump's doing a great job. Yeah. He is doing absolutely fantastic job. I mean, look at that. Look at that. Look at everything that he's done in just a little over seven months now. It's been amazing. Yes. I mean, that that thing we did have in there didn't do nothing. You are exactly and I'm talking literally nothing but try to destroy this country. You're right about that, Paul. President Trump doing a great job. And now we've got even more good news. A New York state appeals court and this isn't the end of this, by the way. I just wanna let you know. A New York state appeals court on Thursday tossed out a massive monetary fine for civil business fraud imposed on president Donald Trump, his company, and other defendants related to the lawsuit by state attorney general Leticia James. Now let's go and remember what Leticia James said. And that is why I will be honored when I walk into that courtroom on October 2. Well, my role is civil, but I will come back before you soon with a check for $250,000,000. Yeah. The best we can do is zero. Sorry. Sorry, Leticia. No four what? I it got over 500 half a billion dollars in fines between her and and George George, George Ingeron. They overstated everything. Now remember, this was a, quote, unquote, crime that nobody said happened. There was no lending institution, no organization that accused Donald Trump of committing fraud. In fact, on every single transaction, there was always a disclaimer that these estimates are done and I'm paraphrasing here. These estimates are done using customary, accounting standards, basically saying, listen. This is the way we do things. If you don't agree with it, you do your own due diligence. But nobody did. Nobody wanted to because they were doing business with Donald Trump, and they wanted to do business with Donald Trump. So they did, and they were happy to do it and would do it again. But Leticia James, who, by the way, is under investigation her own self, she decided that Donald Trump, with no complaints whatsoever, committed some sort of fraud. Now she actually did what she accused Donald Trump of doing. She said she bought a four bedroom rental unit when actually was a five bedroom rental unit. Why would she do that? Well, got a better loan on that one. Got better insurance rates on that one. That is mortgage and insurance fraud. Said she lived at a residence that she didn't live at. Then on one document, it appears that she put her father down as her husband in order to get a VA loan. You see, VA loans are only available to military members and their spouses. Leticia James is not a member of the military. Her husband, not a member of the military. Her father, however, member of the military. So from what I'm hearing, she said that her father was well, that's fraud as well. They're alwa ...

And welcome back to the program. Let's go to Jeff in Townsville to talk about Leticia James. Jeff, what's on your mind? Well, it's a fantastic win on these court cases that Trump's getting. Yeah. But I wanna know who's paying for these court cases because you know that ain't free. No. No. That's that's the people of the district. And they they thought Trump was gonna cover some of that with the 500, million dollar settlement, but that's not the case either. So the people of the state of New York, thank you so much for your donation. Right? Exactly. So I I I don't get it. I really don't, Jeff. I appreciate it. Well, here's the thing, though. The Democrats don't get it. Now listen. Don't tell them don't tell them that they don't get it. I mean, how many times what has been the great Democrat talking point for 2025? What's it been? How have they resonated with the American people? Look at all of the people that they're they're defending. They're defending Gilmore Abrego Garcia. They're defending the truck driver who killed three people. They're defending criminals. They don't want the streets of Washington DC cleaned up. And there's a reason for that. Because if those people in Washington DC, like they're seeing now, get a little bit of a taste of what safety and security is all about, they're gonna want more. They're gonna want more. Not only they're gonna want it in Washington DC, they're gonna want it in Baltimore. They're gonna want it in Chicago. They're gonna be they're gonna want it everywhere. They're gonna want it in Atlanta. And that means the Democrats are gonna lose control, and that's the last thing they want. All they want is the power. But they don't know they cannot come out and say that. They cannot say what they really believe. They're only using Gilmore, Abrego, Garcia as a photo op. That's it. They don't care where he goes. They could give a rat's rump. They don't care. They don't care about the so called migrants. They don't care about the African American community. They don't care. The only thing they care about and listen. I was in the land of old white liberals this past weekend. I mean, I might have been in the epicenter. I am literally hold on. I am literally trying to to just rack my brain and think if I saw any, you no. I don't think I saw a single black person. Not one African American. And we're talking about this a this a pretty big tourist town, but, I didn't see anybody there in the land of Black Lives Matter. Where were they? Where were they? Oh, oh, oh, oh, I saw some Hispanics there. They were trimming the manicured hedges in Westerly and Stoningtonborough, but that's it. That's it. So the Democrats, they don't have a brand right now. They don't. And the American people are starting to figure that out. Even I I love this. This is Harry Enton, from, over on on CNN. Once you listen to what he said Look. The Democratic brand right now has about the appeal with the American voter as the Cracker Barrel rebrand has with the American consumers. Bad. Bad. Bad. What are you doing? Oh my goodness gracious. What are we talking about here in terms of big party registration changes in the key swing states? Let's look at the key four swing states that in fact do keep track of registration by party. Look, the Republican party is in their best position at this point in the cycle since at least 2005 and all four of these key battleground states. We go out to the Southwest, Arizona. How about Nevada? Republicans haven't done this well since 02/2005. Oh my goodness gracious at this at this point in the cycle. North Carolina, I couldn't find a point at which Republicans were doing better at this point in the cycle. It's at least this century. It probably goes way back in the last century. And Pennsylvania, very similar. Republicans doing better at this point than at any point at any point this century, at least as far as I I could find. Look. The And, yeah, and and the only thing is the only ...

And welcome to the program on your Monday afternoon. And, boy, I tell you what, it is good to be back in a red state. I was I was up in in the blue state capital of the world. Two of them. We were up there in, Rhode Island and Connecticut over the weekend. And, man but did you know what? The only and I mean this. The only political banners, signs, or flags that we saw while we were in Rhode Island and Connecticut, were Trump. I didn't see I didn't see I didn't see any Gavin Newsom 2028 signs. I didn't see any old faded Biden Harris signs. I didn't see any old faded Harris Walt signs. I didn't see any of those things. The only signs that I saw. And one of them was a guy in in a pickup truck. I thought it was great. He was flying a, thin blue line American flag, and he was flying a Trump flag, and we gave him a good honk there. Way to go. Thumbs up, buddy. Thumbs up. Good job. Now Rhode Island voted for I think I think they got I think it was 51. No. No. No. It's like fifty six forty four, something like that, for Kamala Harris. But Trump was able to win some counties that hadn't been won since Reagan in that election. So that that was pretty cool. But, anyway, had a great time. Now I'll be honest with you. I was a little worried when I left to take a couple days off. Because the last time I took a couple days off, I came back, and it seemed like all you know what broke loose. You folks had not minded the store. But this time, I have to commend you. You did a great job. You did a great job while I was away. So while I was away, I'm sitting there, and I'm, you know, still working while I'm away, you know, scrolling on my phone, looking for for breaking news stories. And I see several stories that I just went, wow. Number one, what? Nine days with no murders in Washington DC? Nine days? People in Washington DC are like, man, we're loving this. We're we're able to get out there and and walk around and and do things. That's absolutely awesome. Right? Yeah. You know it is. You know if you are a a resident of New York City, I mean, Washington DC, that you gotta be loving life right about now. Right? Yeah. Then I saw that that big giant what was it? $400,000,000 fine against Donald Trump or something ridiculous like that from Leticia James. That got thrown out. Yay. Big win for Donald Trump. Then I saw that the stock market hit another record high. Another big win for Trump. Then I saw that Canada moved all the retaliatory tariffs on The United States. Another win for Trump. But this one, I had to kinda double check. Had to double check this one because I was I was scrolling down there, and it says, FBI rage John Bolton's home. And I was like, no. No. They did not. Shut up. And then move along, move along, move along. And then it popped up again. And I was like, oh, no. Hold on. There's something else. And then we find out that, yes, indeed. The FBI did raid John Bolton's home, and I think it's absolutely glorious. I mean, this remember, this was the same guy that had no problems whatsoever with the FBI raiding Mar A Lago. No. No. Let's see how how many well, that that seemed to be the catchphrase all over Washington DC when the FBI raided Mar A Lago. Well, let's see how this plays out. Well, let's see all of the well, it didn't play out very well, did it? No. It did not. In fact, president Trump talked about it. This is, this is Trump talking about the raid on Mar A Lago and John Bolton. Are more raids like that coming, sir? Are more raids like the ones on John Bolton's house coming? More raids? I don't know. So you have to ask the Department of Justice. They raided my house. I can tell you that. They did a big raid on my house. They took away everything that wasn't pinned down, and they took away some of that too. No. They raided Mar A Lago. They started that. And these were bad people that we had in our government before. They raided Mar A Lago. They went into my wife's area. They went into my son's area, my ...

And welcome back to the program. Somebody on the text line said, Charlie, you forgot about Cracker Barrel. Oh, yes. Now here's the thing. We're in Westerly, Rhode Island, right up there near Taylor Swift's $15,000,000 mansion over in the neighborhood of Watch Hill. They've only got one cracker barrel in the entire state of Rhode Island. That's in Coventry, Rhode Island. We are down Southwest Of Coventry, miles and miles and miles away. Gotta take I 95 from Westerly, up to Covington. They're talking about it there. They're talking about this unbelievable debacle of Cracker Barrel, and I don't owe and I'll tell you this little more about the story coming up. But they're trying to say now they're trying to say now that they've still got the barrel. The barrel is still there. They haven't gotten rid of the the barrel, the Cracker Barrel. It's just been turned on its side. Yeah. The barrel is just over on its side. That's all. That's all. It's still there. Still got a barrel. Everything's gonna be great. Everything's gonna be wonderful. That's all it is. Just turn the bell over on its side. That's all we do. That's all we do. Nothing more than that. It's great. Everything's gonna be wonderful. They they I alright. I'll tell you this story real quick. Got home last night, took the dogs for a walk, met up with our neighbors that we always see, walking their dogs, and we had it. We always have great conversation. And they went to Cracker Barrel this weekend because they wanted to see what was going on, And they talked to the waitress. They said, hey. Got some changes happening. And the way you know what the waitress did? She said, oh, let me go get the manager. They had this thing planned out. They had it planned out. So the waitress goes and gets the manager, and the manager comes out there, and he's got his talking points. He is like, oh, all we're doing is there's no no that Cracker Barrel that you saw, online, that was that was just it just looked like that because they were painting it. That's all. No. No. No. And this and, again, we're just keeping the the barrel. We just turned it over on its side, and there's listen. People aren't buying that crap. People aren't buying it. Literally, they're not buying it. John Rich post a picture, this weekend of a Cracker Barrel. I believe it was in Tennessee. Now if you don't think Cracker Barrel should be a very popular place in any of the states, Tennessee might be way up there at the top. The parking lot was practically empty on a Saturday afternoon. Practically empty. This is what happens when you go and you join the Woke Brigade. I don't know who this female CEO is, but when she gets up there and she's talking about, oh, well, it's all positive, and, oh, the reviews are all positive, and everybody's excited. She's lying through her big old giant nose. Absolutely. People are hating oh, wait a minute. Oh, hold on. Maybe the marketing team does love it. Maybe the marketing team thinks it's great. Maybe the people that are in charge of branding or advertising, maybe they like it because they got paid a lot of money to do it. But who they did not ask about it was the customers. They forgot about the people. And I was thinking about this this weekend. When you go to I mean, let's alright. Let's all be honest. The food is good, but it ain't great. Alright? It's good, but it's not great. You could go to Lizard's Thicket, oh, down there in Columbia, and get better country style food than Cracker Barrel. I mean, I I'll be honest with you. I don't know of a whole lot of places around here. Maybe there are a bunch of places around here that you could go get actually better food. People go to Cracker Barrel for the experience of going to Cracker Barrel. They love seeing all the things on the wall. They love to see the things hanging from the ceiling. They love the that homey country feel because it's like you're walking back into an old general store. That gave people something ...

And welcome to the program on your Monday afternoon. And, boy, I tell you what, it is good to be back in a red state. I was I was up in in the blue state capital of the world. Two of them. We were up there in, Rhode Island and Connecticut over the weekend. And, man but did you know what? The only and I mean this. The only political banners, signs, or flags that we saw while we were in Rhode Island and Connecticut, or Trump? I didn't I didn't see. I didn't see any Gavin Newsom 2028 signs. I didn't see any old faded Biden Harris signs. I didn't see any old faded Harris Walt signs. I didn't see any of those things. The only signs that I saw. And one of them was a guy in in a pickup truck. I thought it was great. He was flying a, thin blue line American flag, and he was flying a Trump flag, and we gave him a good honk there. Way to go. Thumbs up, buddy. Thumbs up. Good job. Now Rhode Island voted for I think I think they got I think it was 51 no. No. No. It's like fifty six forty four, something like that, for Kamala Harris. But Trump was able to win some counties that hadn't been one since Reagan in that election. So that that was pretty cool. But, anyway, had a great time. Now I'll be honest with you. I was a little worried when I left to take a couple days off. Because the last time I took a couple days off, I came back, and it seemed like all you know what broke loose. You folks had not minded the store. But this time, I have to commend you. You did a great job. You did a great job while I was away.
