What this episode covers
00:00 And welcome to the program on your Monday afternoon. Hope you had a great weekend. Appreciate you tuning in. I get another rip roaring week started here on News Talk 989WORD. Well, we do have some statewide political news to announce to you. We did not know if Congressman Ralph Norman was going to make an endorsement. Now, this is a, let tell you something, this is a coveted endorsement. 00:29 Next to Donald Trump in this race, this was like the endorsement that everybody wanted. And it looks like we have a winner and who Ralph Norman is endorsing. the past several days, I've carefully looked at both candidates. I've talked with them and I've considered who is best for the future of our great state of South Carolina. ah The person that will cut wasteful spending, the person that will lower our taxes, fix our roads. 00:57 the person who will empower our small businesses and who are which are the lifeline of this great state and move South Carolina in a more conservative direction, which is definitely what we need today. I'm excited to announce my complete endorsement of attorney general Allen Wilson. There you go. Congressman Ralph Norman has endorsed attorney general Allen Wilson to be the next governor 01:27 of the South Carolina. We will see how that plays out. Now we got the big debate coming up tomorrow night between now this is going to be the only one. This is going to be only runoff debate between Alan Wilson and Pamela Vett. So will we get any questions answered? Will we know anything after this debate tomorrow night that we don't already know? Well, that's going to remain to be seen. Now we do know that Pamela Vett has come out with some pretty 01:54 pretty nasty ads against Alan Wilson. In fact, you know how you can, we saw today, my wife was looking at, you know how the post office will send you kind of like scans of your mail, which is, kind of creepy, you know, that they're photocopying your mail. But we're getting all of these Pamela Vette flyers in the mail today, I guess. We'll find out tonight when we get home, take the dogs for a walk and check the mail. um 02:21 But this going to be an interesting, it's going to be very interesting to see how this thing actually winds up. We'll see what happens. Now, a lot of people are saying that Pamela Vett, because it seems like, and she does a lot, talk about the Trump endorsement. But a lot of people are saying, you know what, you've gone to that well long enough. People are tired of hearing about the endorsement. 02:48 They've heard plenty of that. What are you going to do to move South Carolina forward? And another big question that's just kind of hanging over Pam LaVette like the sword of Damocles is 03:02 Where have you been? Where have you been this entire time? Where has Pamela Ebbett been? When the state was shut down during COVID, where were you? When all of these things were happening, where were you? 03:20 All of these things that, you know, we're going to cut the state income tax within the first 100 days. Where were you? That's the big question a lot of people are asking. So there you go. ah Other questions that people are asking and nobody, let me reiterate that, nobody has the answers to this. What is in... 03:42 The, um what is it called? The memo of understanding, the MOU between the United States and Iran. Nobody knows what's in the deal. President Trump, uh other than a few key points, has not said what is in the deal, but a lot of people are still out there claiming that they absolutely know what's in this deal. This is Marjorie Taylor Greene. I you to listen to what she said. Here we go. So I'm reading today that in the US-Iran proposed peace deal, 04:10 that is supposedly going to be signed later this week. This is after we've been told at least 38 to 40 times that there's going to be a peace deal, but supposedly there's one.
