we have the halls of congress that are being shuffled by cowards. We have a geriatric despot who sits in the oval office. Thank you my friends. What's going on in our country? It's hard. We're facing dark times. I know that many of you recognize that we're facing dark times, but you also realize that America's greatest comebacks happened when things seem the hardest America. The american spirit when it is pushed against is when we come out and fight the hardest. And my friends. When I start seeing what's going on in our nation, when I see okay, how quickly our country has changed. You know, I think the ADDers that best describes this time in history is that hard times create strong men and strong men create good times, but those good times create weak men and weak men create hard times. And you see what's going on in our nation right now when we have weak leadership, How quickly things have changed. And my friends, I I know about how quickly things can change. Eight years ago, I was in a car with my best friend. We were driving in florida and I was asleep in the passenger seat. He fell asleep behind the wheel and we ran into a concrete wall at 70 mph. At that point, my friends, I had less than a 1% chance to be able to live. I was destined to never stand again. I know how quickly things can change. We are now seeing our energy independence ripped away from us. We're seeing our greatness ripped away from us. We're seeing just how bad our country can be? We're seeing gas at five up to $7 a gallon. My friends, this country can change very quickly and it may seem impossible. People tell me that it's impossible to change the direction of our country. That it's impossible to root out the corruption in our government. Okay. But all but my friends, God spared my life, he has given me the strength to stand before you today, so do not lecture me. I want is impossible. My fellow patriots. Americans are in the business of doing the impossible because with God, all things are possible. Many of you are tired. You're so used to a government that works only for the elites that works only for the other side. And we have so many in the national parties of our country that believe that the key to saving our nation is weakened, cheapening our platform and going after these non existent middle ground voters, my friends, there is no middle ground with marxists. The key to saving our nation is not going after these voters that don't exist, but it's going after the disenfranchised man and woman in our country. The people who don't even bother to vote because it's been proven to them time and time again that the government will never work on their behalf. These are the pipe fitters, The lineman, the construction workers, the welders, the people that actually make our economy run. What do they care about? What do we care about? We care about dining room politics. What actually affects your family as you gather together around the kitchen table. These people care about raising their families and peace and prosperity and an economy that's so strong. You could do it on a single income. These people don't want defunded police. They want the funded police, they want safety, They want high paying, steady jobs. They don't want to send our sons and daughters to fight in some foreign war. They don't want our borders to be porous and open. But my friends, I'm telling you the elites in our country and I've seen them in Washington. They are afraid and they're acting desperate. That's why you see so many crazy things coming out of Washington because they tried to cow you. They tried to make you submit and bend the knee through fear. They called mothers who went and spoke at school boards domestic terrorists. But when they started coming for our Children, they started coming for our freedoms. That's when the americans leaned in. That's when we said you, we will get even louder and we will fight even harder because this nation is worth saving. When the people force took the establishments candidate and they elected Donald J. Trump as the 45th president of United States. We showed just how united this country can be my friend. The quote that I think is so powerful is by Mark Twain and it's that in the beginning of a change. The patriot is a scarce man and he's brave and he's hated and he has scorned. But after his mission is successful, then that tim had joined him. Because then it costs nothing to be a patriot. My friends, we are in the beginning of a change. And right now we can make the decision of if we are going to bury our heads in the sand and say, oh, I don't like politics. It's too dirty, it's too ugly. It's too bad. And I don't blame you. Or we can decide that God chose us to live in this time. And just like queen Esther, we were chosen for such a time as this. My friends, we were not cursed to live in interesting times. If you put America first patriots in power in Washington, D. C. If we put donald trump back in command in the White House, my friends, we will embrace the spirit of our founding fathers. We will investigate Anthony Fauci and send him to jail for lying to Congress thing. We will restore the Second Amendment by repealing the national firearms act. We will secure our borders. And finally, my friends. We will import impeach joe biden for his dereliction of duty. Thank you all so much. My friends May God bless you May God bless Donald trump and may. God bless the U. S. A. Mm hmm. Ready? Mm hmm. Thank you

Sunshine. We have warm temperatures on the way for us today. Let's talk about the kind of what we have headed this way over the next couple of days. Besides the sunshine. Today, we have a warm Thursday ahead. It's gonna be hot today near 90 this afternoon. Spotty storms though into tomorrow looks like mainly after about two o'clock into tomorrow evening.

Better rain chances though by the time we get into our Sunday afternoon, Sunday evening, that will be a time period to plan on some rainfall coming through. Otherwise we go today to 87 this afternoon. Some spots Fayetteville, for instance, could hit 90. Certainly. I think it's a good bet for us. 40% chance of some showers and storms though. Tomorrow afternoon does jump up though into Sunday mainly during the evening and then Sunday night, talking about tomorrow though. We do from the storm prediction center have out a risk of some strong to severe storms. The overall threat as it stands right now looks very low. This does not look like a huge severe weather event, but they have us outline in that potential. Nonetheless, we go through futurecast. Here's lunchtime on our Friday. We may have a couple light areas of rainfall. By that point. I think the better chances that would be again after two o'clock or so, mainly from the triangle to the south could see a few pop up storms. This is not a widespread tons of rainfall kind of event for us. And then this gets out of here, maybe just a few lingering spotty showers into tomorrow night for the most part though. If you're headed out into the next couple of days, no big problems until we get into our Sunday with more rain. We go to 87 today, 83 tomorrow, really cooling off there with the rainfall into Sunday at 6365 on Monday. Like I said, best chances of rain come in for us into Sunday afternoon, Sunday night and then should be tapering off by the time we get into early Monday morning of next week.
