About this listen

 00:00 And welcome to the program on your yay Friday afternoon. And what a Friday afternoon it is, ladies and gentlemen, we set a record high today. The old record was 79, some places throughout the Greenville area recorded 81 degrees. So it's 82 right now, so there you go. 00:24 82 degrees, that is a record. Oh, it's the global warming. Charlie, no, it's not hush. It's just not. got we got some more cool weather coming in the next few days. So don't you worry too much about that. OK, we have got a beaucoup things to talk about today. We really do. I want to start off with with this because something happened. 00:52 back on February the 5th. 00:57 Something kind of strange happened in our state house where we have a quote unquote Republican majority. You see, there was a bill filed on February the 5th by a Democrat state Senator Margie Bright Matthews. Now, that's not weird. Bills are filed in Columbia all the time. 01:26 Every single year, thousands of them, the vast majority of these bills go quietly into a committee where they remain until they die. But not this bill. Not this one. S897 and this is what the folks over at Palmetto State Watch S897 proposes to remove the religious exemptions for the measles, mumps and rubella. The MMR vaccine for children attending public institution and daycares. 01:55 as well as for young adults attending a university. This means any person enrolled in a public education and any child attending daycare or planning to attend college must get two doses of the MMR vaccine unless they have a medical exemption, which is extremely difficult to obtain. So somehow, S897 oh 02:24 managed to get on the schedule for a subcommittee hearing. 02:30 two days ago on Wednesday at 930 A.M. in the Gresset building in Columbia. This bill has no co-sponsors whatsoever and is sponsored by a Democrat. 02:46 in a Republican majority state. 02:50 Now, how does this even happen? 02:55 How does this, I mean, how does it even happen? 02:59 When we were supposed to be Ruby Red South, folks, let me tell you, every single day, our state legislature gives you another reason to get out and vote on June 9th in a big, huge way. We all remember COVID. We all remember the mandates. We all remember that you had to have the experimental jab. We all remember that. They act like we haven't forgotten. But because we had an outbreak, 03:29 of the measles in Spartanburg, now all of a sudden, we're gonna do away with the religious exemptions for the jab. Over the last few months, the folks at Palmetto State Watch heard that South Carolina is now the leader in the nations for the measles outbreak in the Spartanburg area since October of 2025. The numbers, they said, is now approaching 1,000 cases, and that's cumulative since October. 03:59 This is oddly reminiscent of another situation our country went through a few years back. Anybody remember COVID? Of course you do. What we're not hearing is how many people have recovered, what long-term complications they've had, how many have died, how many current cases are there. It's just an ever-increasing number that is intended to strike fear in everybody's soul. 04:24 I want you to listen to this. This is, I'm not sure who this is, this Dawn Richardson, Director of Advocacy for NVIC. So in South Carolina, there was a bill just dropped that would remove the religious exemption for just the MMR vaccine for kids in child care, kids in school, and then also it would mandate the MMR vaccine without exemptions for people in college. Now, 04:51 This was filed because in Spartanburg County there's been an outbreak. About 95 % of the cases have occurred in this one county. But what's interesting in that county, they did a huge vaccination push. They vaccinated over 1200 kids aged six months to 11 months. The important thing is they can spread it. And so the problem with going and putting all these vaccines out there, first of all, they're live virus. Second of all ...
