(00:00):
We interrupt your regularly schedule program dashflash. It's time for rockin Robers news
flash on Madison's Classic Rock on onepoint five IBA FM. Without further ado,
we welcome in news director Robin Colbertfrom Newstunt thirteen cwyb AM. I'm
not gonna waste any more time becausewe had a very busy weekend full of

(00:20):
news. Robin Colbert's yeah, nodoubt. Political whoops. One second,
we can do this. Just flipthat microphone around. Are we go?
For those who are not in thestudio with us, the microphone, Robin
us, this is tricky. Oneside you talk into the other looks identical.
But if you talk into it,nobody hears you. I know it,
and I said some very profound thingsI can never get back. And

(00:41):
that's all lost now because of myMike mishap here. Yeah, all political
eyes on Milwaukee this week for theRepublican National Convention. Donald Trump arrived yesterday,
of course, a day after theassassination attempt at Israelly in Pennsylvania left
one man dead. The gunman alsokilled. Needless to say, security is
tight and then some in Milwaukee.Now the latest reports on what happened in

(01:06):
Pennsylvania late Saturday. Was that.You know, everybody's wondering how in the
heck did this gunman get so close? There is a video, Yeah,
rally signed people in the crowd,Hey, look up there, you know.
And I guess this is just thelatest reports that have come in on
this. It was just outside ofthe perimeter for Secret Service, so they

(01:27):
left it to local law enforcement todo the sweep. But it sounds like
local law enforcements like, no,that wasn't us. The area wasn't swept.
It's the blame game. It's theblame game. Yeah. The Secret
Service says, yes, they willtake part in an independent review of this
whole situation. So yeah, itcome. It's scary because you know,

(01:51):
I don't care how you feel aboutwhoever it is, absolutely but that could
happen to any political or I shouldsay, any politician. And I personally
thought we may have evolved a littlebit in this country where we didn't turn
to violence, but apparently we haven'thad No. It makes you angry,
does it really does. I don'tcare if you're an R or a D
or an I. It really makesyou angry. And the poor man that

(02:15):
lost his life yes, yes,Trump's he was given a victorial. He's
given a big victory over the weekendthat he literally dodged that bullet although he
was hitting the ear. His classifieddocuments case is being dismissed. This is
the case. Just think of theimages, all the boxes in a bathroom
att Mara a Lago. The judgehere, Eileen Cannon, making the ruling

(02:37):
today not at any merits of thecase, but the appointment of special counsel
Jack Smith, she says violated theConstitution since he's an independent counsul. Trump's
lawyers argued that he should have beenappointed by the president and confirmed by the
Senate. A lot of eyebrows raisedover this because since Watergate, special prosecutors
have been appointed by the nation's attorneygeneral. So many other big cases now

(03:02):
could be in flux. Hunter Bidenwas prosecuted by a special prosecutor and convicted,
and they go to the special prosecutorroute when you have a sensitive case
involving somebody like a former president ora president's son. Yeah, and so
this is a procedure thing which theyshould all know. So that's what makes

(03:24):
me wonder about this. It's like, come on, we're not dumb.
Well the thing, yeah, Imean, this is just something that's so
far back. Is it really procedure? I mean, it hasn't been done
since Watergate, so sure, yeah, I see that. So why why?
But wasn't there special prosecutions during theClinton administration as well? Bill Clinton?

(03:46):
Like Ken Starr? Yeah, whowas he appointed by? I mean,
I know, you don't know.I just threw that out there,
but it makes me wonder all thosequestions. I don't know if Clinton at
the time appointed him or if JanetReno probably did the appointment, because that's
just the way it's been the attorneygenerals have been doing the appointments. That
how why it should go back toanyway? That's just more of a legal

(04:10):
limbo here. There were a lotof notable deaths over the past few days.
Doctor Ruth died on Friday at theage of ninety six. Not only,
of course, was she a famedsex doctor. She was a trained
sniper. She's like three feet tall, four foot seven okay, sorry,
and she was Yeah. Her parentswere caught up in the Holocaust unfortunately likely

(04:31):
did not survive. She never heardfrom them again. In nineteen thirty eight,
they shipped her off to Switzerland seeingthe Nazis regime taking hold, and
yeah, never heard of her fromher parents again. She was trained to
be a sniper. She never actuallyhad to follow through with her sniper abilities.
But just a fascinating fact actually beingfour foot seven that may allow you

(04:54):
to actually, yeah, that couldbe beneficial about it. Actor James six
or Seeking, he was on HillStreet Blues and Doogie Howser's dad. He's
one of those faces from eighties ninetiesTV. Remember he passed away. He
was ninety. Richard Simmons, ofcourse, seventy six. They say natural
causes. And Shannon Doherty was fiftythree. She had been battling breast cancer

(05:18):
for many years. And we're goingto end here on a more upbeat note.
And eleven year old from Wasaw inthe running for this year's Best Mullet
contest. Jude Carlson says he startedto grow his hair during the pandemic because
he was bored, and he hasn'thad it cut since. So his flowing
blonde locks, they're really quite impressive. And Jude thinks so too. You

(05:40):

all know it, but I haveto be a good sport. So one
of the best mullets in the contest, little humility there. Yes, voting

(06:01):

donate the rest to Saint Jude.Wow. See we need a nice feel

you know they raised him right sofar. Yeah. I ran into a
little toddler over the weekend and hisname was Conway, after Conway Twitty.

(06:25):
Yes, not after Conway Twitty,you for real. And he was one
of a set of twins. Andoh no you didn't name the other one
Twitty, did you? Thank goodness? The mother said no, no,
they named him Asher. But Ijust I was really taken, aback.
