'Unidentified object' downed over Lake Huron, 3rd this week

"Authorities in Michigan are reporting another aerial device has been shot down over their state. The fourth in a series of suspicious objects. Michigan congresswoman elissa slotkin says an unidentified object was shot down over Lake Huron. After authorities restricted airspace and military jets were scrambled. It follows the shootdown of another flying object over Alaska on Friday. And another Saturday over the Yukon in Canada, which was described by prime minister Justin Trudeau on CTV. It represented a reasonable threat to civilian aircraft, so I gave the order to take it down. Both are believed to be balloons, according to Senate majority leader Chuck Schumer, who was briefed over the weekend. They believed they were, yes. He tells ABC's this week with George Stephanopoulos. Intelligence analysts are reviewing what was recovered from the Chinese surveillance balloon shot down the weekend before, off the coast of South Carolina. And piecing together what all this means.

"For christmas. Press to friends of mine that are struggling being single newly divorced and And i it's just it's it's a good. It's just a good book like i said. Even if you're just a mom struggling to get your your mojo back. So but what what. What are some of the most common mistakes that people make on their dating profile for online dating. Yeah well i. Unfortunately there are so many and you know there's the cliches are cliches for reason and for what you know for some reason specifically men keep you know posting the same kind of photos over and over again like the carcelle fee where they're strapped into their seat belt the mirror selfie and their bathroom. There's so many of those things that happen. All the time and they in funny enough they. They're you know they actually are a real thing. I mean you go onto someone dating profile and you see all of the mistakes and then the one the holding giant fish and all of those are cliches or reason But then you know as far as you know mistakes that people make on their bio. You know I think a lot of people make the mistake of of not writing off or not writing much in there or making it. You know sound more like a resume. Then you know something eyecatching and you know people are swiping through so many profiles and a you know sitting and you know if you see the same kind of thing written over and over again you kind of swipe on by but if it's something eye-catching interesting and maybe a little more unusual that's what's gonna make you stop and take a look and of course. The photos are really important. But i think the bio is a really important more so than people realize first impressions right on both ends of the both of bio the photograph. I mean you're presenting yourself out there to the world and you're looking for a mate. That's a pretty big endeavor right. And i think how many people just don't really put much thought into their bio. Yeah you know and even if you're not hiring a coach to help you even just running it by your friend right. Yeah and in the book you write that the one of the biggest mistakes that people make is they don't put anything in their bio or very little and so you don't. That's like the biggest mistake. You could make right. Yeah absolutely and i mean now. I you know i have clients. That won't even swipe at all. You know they don't even think about it doesn't have anything written in their bio. They won't even they won't even look at any further because oftentimes it needs something like maybe they're married or maybe they're not really you know they feel like they're better than the and they don't really need to be online dating or maybe somebody that you know. One of their friends set up their profile and they didn't really want to be doing it. So any of those are not good reasons to you know you definitely want to be going out with someone. Who's not really that into it So really i think if if you can't take a few minutes to put together some kind of bio In you know get you're not really throwing yourself into it so a lot of people don't even swipe at all on on someone who doesn't have anything written. Well i wouldn't. Why would you like. There's nothing if it says something. Well i think it says something about your just in general because if you're if you're going to be that introverted and you're looking for love i mean how much difficulty would you have even in the relationship of discovering who. That person is right absolutely absolutely. Yeah well so what are the must haves in a successful dating profile elissa. So will you really do. I mean you know as we all know the voters are really important. So you really do..

Yeah but elicit in the introduction of your upcoming book the art of online dating. You say that you were very good at creating an engaging online profile profile. So are you measuring by the number of contacts that you received or the type of guys who responded well. Okay so i just want to say. I wasn't good at it at first Yeah you know. I really had to. There's a learning curve. But what i had advantage was coming from an art directing and photography and styling background. So i did. No you know what made up a good picture what to wear and my photos that kind of thing. So the photos. I i kinda got a grasp on pretty soon. But you know it still took me a while to figure out what to write on my bioch- and had a message with people.

That's another one elissa recommended as being particularly good too so again on my list. Yes i'm buying now into. It's short like fourteen thousand words. Okay see you just get like the setup and then the sex which is a d'alene what more do i need not beautifully. It's like a little snack. Yeah well and i think that's back to the whole idea of rate like if if it's a punishment that you're like disfigured and disabled and then you go back that that's part of the thing that's especially agreed. I guess in terms of like reading these as Allegory for disability. So i'm glad to hear that there's some examples like that. Yeah a thing that it also reminds me of is the idea that this otherness is a bad thing. And then you discover that. It's not a bad thing. I think i feel that with like. I have obsessive compulsive disorder and or like. I think i might also be on the spectrum. I have friends who are on the spectrum. And it's like because that's other it's seen as a bad thing like you have a harder time interacting or you know it's it's something that should be treated or medicated or whatever but when it's your reality and you like find someone who loves you for those things not in spite of those things it can be really powerful so know like my husband. Appreciating the parts of my obsessive compulsive disorder that other people might have tried to fix. The past was just so powerful for me. And that's not to say that people with obsessive compulsive disorder monsters because clearly. I'm not saying that but there's something in there for me that like you are other and they love you exactly as you are like. They don't want you to change the fact that you are other is actually a benefit by the end of the book. I don't know. I mean. I think the thing about romance is always about like love and radical acceptance like this idea that everyone deserves love and so i think it makes sense that like monster. Romance would be unpack of course unpacking similar themes. Because it's still.

"What are your thoughts elissa. Yeah i think. I'm gonna go ahead and give her a three. Because of a situation as she's in to not entirely guarantee that she goes home most likely But with the people that are intending to throw the wage less competition for her. And if there's one thing that she is proved that she can do it's win a competition that gets thrown to her. So i think that it's very light. There's also like we that she could end up staying another week and then like hey is listed there at the finals fix what's to keep veer from keeping our little longer so they can use even more of a buffer. You know my not so you know. It's not entirely the end of the road for her. she's not going to win. Big brother twenty-three never going to happen. but she might have maybe one or two more weeks left. Maybe we'll see as she probably not because they're excellent the double too so she's probably if she doesn't leave now. This thursday definitely next thursday. So i'll give her a three just for the simple fact that matter that she's not out yet. I do think you make a good point in i. If she can survive has the six. Then i think she could have a good chance of making it towards the end because i do think that like once that initial like oh the cookouts no longer like a six person making the sixth thing. It's like someone's already been They had to go. Let's say example. Elissa wins veto or she wins age. Wage and one of the governor's task leave i. It's a lot easier for them. Moving forward to just get out another cookout beverly. You know because it's not like i was the one who ruin this. It was already ruined and we didn't make it to the show. We made it as far as we could but now it's like every man for himself and i could see the situation where they're like well might as well bring lasalle further rigor the end filed to because then. I know that i'll win. So i think yeah i think if she if she makes it. Pass this next week or this double eviction then. I think she has a good chance of moving forward but until that point i think that she's not in a great spot all because the odds are that she will be the one leaving so i am still going to give her a too but it's.

No i'm just saying that like in a situation where like because i know that like yeah obviously if elissa wins h. o. H league tiffany's vulnerable. Anyone in the cookout go obviously Anyone could go. But i'm saying do we think that Or somebody diaw or whoever who's saying they're gonna target. Tiffany would target her even if elissa was if you were if they able to have a elliptical home lake. Do we think there is a chance that there is that big of a gut. Turn on tiffany or do we think like it's only a situation Do we think that situation where they throw the veto to a less our throw the h. H to elissa to make sure that tiffany could go home so technically. They're not on her but really they are. Yes i do not believe that exhibitor or derek would would actively be like. I'm putting tiffany and hannah on the block when a list is right there. And then eliza doesn't win the veto and and then maybe maybe a wins the veto and uses it on hannah. And then it's time to put up. Melissa nope Putting up kylie. Who that guy i do. Not think that would ha. I don't think that they would actively avoid targeting list. But i do think that xavier has no any said this. He has no intention of winning h or the veto And you know because he's so selfless.

"The agency To make her feel like she has tricked tiffany into doing some and and this is even a secondary plan for tiffany herself. Because if tiffany goes along with what. Eliza wants then maybe. A eliza doesn't feel the need to target tiffany next week. Maybe she feels the need to argue violent instead and that sort of what has getting at here in this conversation as well so hannah goes with this plant because this is what this is again. You can appeal to greed or fear and as appealing to elicit breed. The idea that elissa you can do this like like you. You have convinced her if somebody feels like they did something. There are a lot less critical of how it happened. How did it happen. I did it obviously is and yeah i mean. We see people take credit for things that we're going to happen anyway all the time right so encouraging that is Is very easy so Hannah's i think we i think we can convince her if she feels like she has votes So they just need to convince her that the votes are there to key players. So the idea would be you put on the block to ensure the xavier goes home than they flip the votes on her to keep xavier and they end so elicits like okay. Maybe this could work if we convinced. Tiffany that it's her idea okay. I'm yeah i think she could maybe go for so elissa. Hannah is convincing. Elissa that it's her idea to convince tiffany that it's her idea to player on the block.

Yeah and this is the point the cloud. It is not somebody else's computer because to me the fear and the risk people naively thinking that clouds somebody else's computer is that they automatically apply all their knowledge from on prem all their playbook all their approaches to the cloud Because hey it's just somebody else computer. I can use all of my thinking going back to nineteen seventy eight when you got indictee waving or you don't see that but the team made was sad said face and then they tried to apply this thinking to the cloud and the result is extremely shaved a lot of bad value but sometimes people just flip too much the other way and they think cloud is completely different. You have to have a brain implant cloud or you have to fire all the people in higher. The cloud native people not true. So helping you understand. How do you think about cloud is not somebody else's computer in the context of threat detection. Yeah i think of it as an opportunity for people to i think it was elissa who said update your playbook. The needs of information security professionals don't really changing cloud. We still have to keep data private. We have to keep our system secure got to ensure up time and reliability but the terrain that were defending has shifted. Sure we still have compute instances.

"Elissa is here producing Senator Rand. Paul says Americans cannot allow the fearmongering hours to win. He's talking about the focus, your all seeing and hearing now on the delta variant of the coronavirus, and he says the fear mongers are at work. And I agree with him. I I I find it just kind of interesting that as we're heading into the Fourth of July, every time we head into a holiday we hear about cases are getting worse or this or that. And now that we're heading into the Fourth of July, and we haven't met that 70% overall vaccination rate that was set for the fourth of July goal. Um, I think it's just interesting that now all we're hearing about is this Delta variant and how more contagious it is and more deadly. And then when you go to do a little digging to try to find some stats to back that up Um, they're very difficult to find, especially here in the United States. I was able to find that as of 28, which was Monday. The United States is reporting less than 5000 cases. They're reporting 4456 cases of this delta variant. And they could not break that down to tell me how many of those had to be hospitalized or how many of those have died. Um Finding those numbers. It is just it's hard to find where, unlike during the Covid times. You couldn't turn on your computer without seeing how many? Yes. How many hospitalizations? I did find that the U. S. Continues to daily death totals and hospitalization totals continue to fall. Every single day. I found out information in the UK where they've had 117 deaths with this delta variant. Out of that there was only 44 that were not vaccinated. So there's that push. Now that's saying you're going to get the delta variant if you haven't been vaccinated, which I think too, since they haven't reached their quota, their their their goal that they're really pushing the the unvaccinated to be vaccinated with this Delta variant, But when you look at the UK The majority of them had been it had at least one shot, if not fully vaccinated in the most of them are over the age of 50. So that's what Senator Paul is saying. When you look at the numbers of this Delta variant, it is Low and that unvaccinated group yet that's not what you're hearing in the media. And that's not what you're hearing from. Dr Fauci, who's out there now, saying, this is more contagious. We really have to be serious. You've got the White House now considering whether they need to do anything as far as rolling back the some of those restrictions that they've lifted. So I just I think it's it is fear mongering in a sense, and it's the same thing that we saw headed into Easter headed into Christmas. Let's check in with Bruce on mo. Pack on K L B J 10 49. Bruce. Good morning. Welcome. How are you doing? Good morning, guys. Melinda? Yes, In general, I would agree with you, but I respectfully differ on the delta. Okay? There was a party in Australia where 30 people attended 30. People were talking about 30 people out of how many in Australia No, no. Hold on a second. There was no you told us this yesterday. 66 that weren't that were vaccinated. Nothing happened. The rest of them or hospitalized. I understand. But 24 of the people who were not vaccinated got covid. The point is, this is far more contagious disease than people are giving it credit. Perhaps double, and on top of that, it's much more serious when you get it. I'm not saying anything other than just everybody get vaccinated, please. That's fine for you to say. And I just gave you some stats that don't support the information you just gave The statistics you have or not on the delta variety. I don't Yes, it is. I look specifically for the Delta variant, and that's what I'm saying. It's very difficult to tell me where I can look that up. I found that at the CDC website. CDC's website. Okay, I'll take a look. All right. Thank you, Bruce. And it's a relatively small number of cases so far in the United States. 4456 as of Monday. Yes. All right, 51283605 90 you can weigh in call or text with your thoughts here on K. L. B. J. Also today, the Houston school district has made a decision on how it's going to respond to the bad star test results. It just came out this week. You heard that across the state? The math, in particular was terrible. And so the Houston public schools have decided they're going to add 15 days to their school calendar next year. That's three weeks. Of extra class days so they can help the kids strive to catch up academically in the Houston public schools. Yes, I think this is the first that were seen as a what are we going to do? Based on the results that we saw? Um School, just district answering that way. I know we had a discussion here one afternoon talking about what can they do? Maybe tack on some tutoring after school. Kind of things will h. I s d decided to go ahead and do all 15 days, which I don't think is a bad thing. The only thing is, is that To me. That means it's going to require. Every student that goes to school will have to do those 15 days, and it's not just honing in on the ones that had trouble. Passing. It needs to be brought up to date. And the question is is is 15 days, enough time to make up the six month gap that they were saying saying occurred. With these test results for some students, I would imagine it will be for some no, not even closed. But I do applaud Houston for acting quickly and making an effort here. It will be interesting to find out how they arrived at 15 additional days. I want to hear the reaction from the teachers. Yeah, there we hold up. Hold up. Yes, yes. What? What? Three more weeks of work Well, and I wonder if those 15 days will be that these teachers no longer have their in service day where they get a day without the kids at work, and that's how they're going to sell it to the teachers. And I'm curious again. This is the first district that we're really hearing from. I'm curious to see how districts here are Are deciding how to work on this how to respond to these test results. I'm sure they're meeting right now and planning and trying to figure out what to do. They're baffled there perplexed. They were embarrassed in New York City, while this is a mess in the mayor's race. They have now admitted that they ran through over 100,000 ballots encountered them that should not have been counted. These were test ballots. That they use in the system 135,000 to be exact. That they should have only used his test ballots, but they kept them in the system and counted them in the mayor's race, and now they're in a real mess in New York City..

"I'm Dave Freeman, the time coming up on 5 46. This is morning edition from NPR News. I'm Rachel Martin. And I'm Steve Inskeep. With almost 40% of the U. S fully vaccinated. Many parts of this country are opening up, but not everybody is quite ready. NPR's re to. Chatterjee has been talking with psychologists about why they'll write has been fully vaccinated since last week. But I still feel little trepidation about going out right, is a psychologist and senior director of healthcare innovation of the American Psychological Association, she says. In fact, most people are feeling a whole range of emotions right now. Things like nervousness, anxiety, trepidation, discomfort, and I think that's hard for people to understand because we have been waiting for this moment for so long that it feels like we should just be excited. And she says it's normal to feel this way because despite the light of the end of If you're a parent with Children under the age of 12, you're thinking about how can you keep them safe until they're vaccinated and a lot of things are going to change the workplace education, health care? We just don't exactly know what they're going to look like. Uncertainty, she says, strikes up our anxiety, especially since most people have already spent the past year feeling anxious, says psychologist Dina Garff in off the University of California, Irvine. The pandemic really shattered people's assumptions of their safety there. Security what their lives were going to be like then, Garvin says. A return to normalcy also means a big change and research shows that any change good or bad is stressful. Even more so when it means going back to a more hectic pace of life, So after 14 or 15 months of sitting at home and not having to deal with traffic and having a slower pace of life People are now having to get in their cars and race to work and sit in a traffic jam and race home to change toe run out to a social event. So how can one make this transition less stressful, Less anxiety ridden? Orphan says, firstly, be patient and kind with yourself. And then, she says, if people were able to find things during the pandemic that gave them comfort that help them. I would say to take some of those things with them into the new normal. So if you found solace and gardening or more time with family during the pandemic, Garvin says, hold on to those things. Psychologist Elissa Apple is at the University of California in San Francisco, she says, decide what kinds of other activities and social interactions you're comfortable with. And start with. Those things were not yet used to going back to normal social interactions. And we need to set our own boundaries and return at our own pace. Also, she says, in order to move forward, it helps to acknowledge the grief and loss is off. The past year. We have all had losses. Felt the losses and so to have some type of events where we can actually come together and acknowledge what we've been through what we would love to leave behind. What we would love to take with us. And Apple says no matter how you feel, try to make room for some joy. I think it's wonderful to feel joy and we shouldn't feel guilty about Having a great day or expressing when we feel Happy. Things are going well, she says. Joy is contagious and can help counter the other negative emotions. You may be feeling right now. Read the Chatterjee NPR news. It's morning edition from NPR News.

Colleges Get Creative To Reach Students

"Martin. The pandemic has had a profound effect on college enrollment colleges are missing more than half a million students, according to new data. Community colleges have taken the hardest hit. So what are schools doing? Defined and enroll new students while holding onto the ones who enrolled before the pandemic? MPR's Elissa? Nah, Bernie has been visiting campuses talking to a whole lot of people. She joins us now. Hi, Elissa. Good morning. So first this new data What can you tell us about this spring numbers? Well, it's pretty bleak. You know, we had horrendous fall numbers. More than half a million students didn't show up for college. Ah, lot of folks were hoping that this spring we'd start to see some of those students enroll. But spring numbers are actually slightly worse than fall. Community colleges are again down 10% from a year ago. Here's Doug Shapiro, who leads the research team at the national Student Clearing House, where the data comes from. There's no quick turnaround here. There's no snap back for public colleges. It's really staggering. There's never been anything that dramatic for any Any sector. The largest group of students that are missing or actually new students. Much of that is the class of 2020 in that group, researchers found the declined to be twice as worse for low income students than wealthier students. So what are the implications of this decline? Well, this is gonna have a long lasting legacy for higher ed. And for the economy at large, you know, Think about it. You've got fewer students this year, so that means you're sophomores. Tomorrow, fewer transfer students getting a bachelor's degree fewer graduates, and we're talking about community colleges, so they tend to serve more low income students, more student parents, portions of color, their places that really open up the door.

He urged the Senate to take up the two Background check bills that have been approved in the House. One would expand background checks to cover private sales between individuals and another would close. What's been called The Charles Should Charleston loophole, And this is the idea that if a background check doesn't come back in time, that it a transaction could occur even while the background check is still in process, and that's apparently what happened in Charleston so that the president is calling on The Senate T send those to background check bills to his desk. He also called on Congress to pass another band on semi automatic rifles and high capacity magazines. He said he got that done when he was a senator in the 1994 assault weapons ban.

"I'm Steve to take us. The pandemic, of course, is taking a big bite out of revenues in L. A. But one agency will actually Seymour money than it had expected. L. A County's public transportation Authority. Metro has nearly $300 million Mork coming in than it had anticipated. The Metro has been making a lot of service cuts during the months of the pandemic, So could that change? Listen, Walker is urbanism editor a curved and she's a contributor here at greater L A Welcome back, Elissa. Why, thank you, Steve. Where Where did this money come from? I mean, there are fewer people writing public transit. During a pandemic, so it's not from people paying fees. Right? Right. Right. This is what What a wonderful surprise right to find out during this time that you actually have some extra money that you weren't planning on. So let's go back to your time I was on the show. We were talking about this and we were worried because fewer people were writing transit, of course, And as we've talked about before There's no way to collect fares on a lot of Metro's Busses because you bored in the back, and the fare collection system is on the front. So some people are just getting on the bus without paying even though they might have a tap card, and they might pay with that part when they ride the train, But the bus is there still aren't collecting affairs, but we're lucky. The way we've structured Metro is that about half of our operating budget actually comes from a sales tax that We voted on several times. We voted on several sales taxes where we voted to text ourselves or better transit. And that's where we're getting the sales tax money over the last year. I think they really estimated that people wouldn't be buying as many things in L. A county, but they actually were. So now we have Almost 300 million extra dollars. Is that a lot of money for Metro considering what their budget is? I suspect their budget is Pretty large sum of money, right? Right. So you're looking at about $6 billion for the fiscal year? 2021. I have a hard times were saying that I keep saying 2020 on DATs down from last year because of changes in operations that they had to make and not technically, you know, not all of that $300 million is eligible to go directly to transit operations, right? But we have this extra money now where we you know, thought that we would be in a very Precarious financial situation. And now we, you know, have a little bit of wiggle room to maybe restore some of the service that might have been slashed for this upcoming year. And yet a lot of people are reluctant to wanting to get on a bus or train. You know, in close quarters with other people, How big have those cuts been? And do you expect when when Metro meets on Thursday? I believe they have a meeting this week. For them to use this unexpected revenue. Maybe the get more transit out there More bus is more trains. Yeah, so at that at the end of last year, Metro did move forward on these service cuts that at the time, you know, seemed necessary just based on the financial outlook that they had. Since that time, we've had some some other really troubling things happen. You know, we've had a lot of drivers that have gotten sick. I don't know if you've seen in New York. They did this gorgeous memorial of the number of empty a drivers who have died from Cove in 19 just really emotional moment. Just seeing how we have these front line workers who are, you know, not only on the bus's but actually like moving our bus is around and their their lives are being put at risk. So we have drivers who are getting sick. And they've had to cut some trips even more. But then remember that we have this wonderful next Gen plan. This was remarkable strategy that Metro's put forward to put high frequency transit make it more accessible to more people across the county. So If if, say we had this extra money. We also have some federal funds coming in emergency funding that's put in place by the Biden administration. Thank you for that we could actually you know you some of this money to increase frequency make bus is not be so crowded by added putting somewhere Busses in the service and then you'd also be able to give people really good options for getting around at a time when They don't have a lot of money. You know there might not have a job anymore. So let's find a way to give people a way to get around it. That's safe and reliable. How many people are still using public transit? I mean, and is it safe? For people to be riding Busses and trains. Yeah, we we've seen not as huge of a dip as many other cities. You know, I've talked before about San Francisco. They actually had to close some of their transit systems because they're just they just have it didn't have enough people riding we still have over 50% of our ridership on Busses little bit less on trains. People who use them. It is good for commuting Tonto. You know, offices where they could maybe do their work at home. You see that a little bit lower ridership on those routes, But we still have people using and we still have the people who are using it who are most at risk of getting sick and dying from covered 19. These maps you see of where the outbreaks are are the worst happening in the city are Also the places where transit ridership is the highest. So if you think about reopening now, you know we've got this We've got by Friday. You know, Dining is going to be open again. You've got people who are going to be going. Toe work and getting places We're going to need that extra space to not only make people feel safe, you know, we need extra extra vehicles, extra frequency, but we also want to make sure that we're taking the precautions to keep you know the operators. The people who work for Metro safe so I feel comfortable taking it, But I wouldn't use it for a non essential trip just because I want to make sure that the people who need to use it are getting the social distance that they need and making sure that they can protect themselves as they have to go to work.

"elissa" Discussed on KLBJ 590AM

"Is here. Elissa is producing. Thank you for joining us. We're talking about the high stakes. U. S. Senate runoff races. Voters are at the polls in Georgia today. President Trump was in Georgia yesterday, holding a rally. No one fights harder for the people of Georgia than David Perdue. David's opponent, John Ossa. Is an unhinged, radical leftist got a seven. He's not. He's not a senator, I got to say if if Trump were downhill skier Mark he hit every post and that speech last night. I mean, he he covered them all. Here is the latest polling out of Georgia. These would be the final polls right Trafalgar, which as a very, very good track record over the last two presidential cycles in state by state polling in Georgia, Trafalgar has also off at 49 per do it 49. Trafalgar has Reverend Warnock at 48 Kelly Leffler at 50 so left Lear's up by two and Purdue and also off are tied. According to Trafalgar, and then we've got the Fox five insider. That's the one that Kenny was touching on a moment ago. This is out of Atlanta, one of the TV stations there. They have all soft and produced tied at 49. They have. Wow. How about that to have Leffler and War noch tied as well? And 49 dead? Even You know, on the true value of pole ahead, Leffler up by about six points. Not too long ago, and now she's still up in this one, but down by two, so all within the margin of error, and any way you cut it, If believe the polls mark, this is gonna be Tight race. And do we even know a winner tonight or the days ahead? I don't think so. Part of it depends on whether they have a leak at the counting station in Atlanta, where they count the votes. They might have a plumbing leak there tonight, Right? Anything that they do? It could be days or weeks before we know the outcome, right? Well, they have plumbers on standby to fix leaks. Maybe that's ah, good thing we've heard. They've supposedly have thousands of poll watchers, right and they they check their credentials to see See if they've got their plumbing of trucks with him just in case. What's your gut telling you, Kenny? If you had to make a prediction now on these two races, what do you think's gonna happen? Oh, boy, I guess when I When I let's say if if we know tomorrow I will not be shocked if the Democrats win both I'm not going to be shocked if the Republicans win both of these. Yeah, I'd have to say I agree with that, and especially, it's hard to see how they're going to be split, right? I mean in these polls that lockers up by two and the other one's dead even It's hard to see It's either going to be two wins for Republicans or two wins for the Democrats. It's hard to see somebody going in and split in the tickets. Yeah, I don't think we'll see a split. No sorry with that. It's either go big or go home. Right? 51283605 90 tomorrow is that joint session of Congress where they will count the electoral college votes. And a long and growing list of Republican House members plans to object to several states electoral ballots just time back to our Georgia, the runoff race of Leffler. Has come out and said she now is going to join those senators who were going to have to look to de certify or or vote against some of the the votes that have taken place. She specify which states she will object to know she did not. She just said she was going to join. You know those her colleagues enough in that process on the House side, New York Republican Congresswoman Elise Stefanik Says she will join her colleagues and ejecting do certain states. She has six states in mind. And she says these air all states where the state and federal election laws were violated because Secretaries of state changed voting laws or governors did which contradicts what the U. S constitution requires, it says on Lee elected state lawmakers can change election laws and here's more of what she has to say. On that point. I have serious questions about the constitutionality of unilateral changes that were made in multiple states by unmolested bureaucrats. Secretary of State who circumvented state legislatures. And you did you see a report that it's more than 100 now on the House side? Well, I thought I heard Eject. I thought I heard a number of around 140 or so I can't cite for attribution source on that the one thing that I did read this morning mark. A couple of different places is there is concern amongst those And in the Senate and so forth that you know what's the endgame here? Where is this going to go? Even as they tactically maybe state by state object here and there. We know Cruz has talked about trying to have some kind of commission for 10 days and that but it seems like that's still a little bit squishy. At this point, If you will, the House members are very clear. On on what the end game is, they are on a mission to have this end up in a decision. By the House of Representatives, or to force it back to these certain states again to select a new slate of electors well, and you know the president last night, and there's even been others who have implied. There's going to be new news. There's going to be new information presented when these senators and House members object, and that's going to blow this thing wide open, so I don't know if that's just a tease..
