something like that on any of our politicians regardless of what side the fence you're on well and I'm at least tired of people acting like this is a Christian man he he came on after Erica Kirk when when they were doing the funeral for Charlie Kirk and remember she stepped up and basically lived the golden rule which I want to give her credit for I mean in such a tough situation and we've lost friends and shootings but this is her husband and she says I forgive him I forgive my enemies and he came on and said I don't I hate my enemies basically the exact opposite of that golden rule yes well in other news as we continue to move through Kentucky with success after success that keeps happening I think there's a an announcement I've been coming we we had a big announcement today we're filming this on on Monday and first to set the stage over the last six years we've had our first second third and fifth best years for economic development in our history by far the most private sector investment by far the the most new jobs in our average wage for a new job last year is almost $30 an hour and so we're doing the work to try to make sure that American dream is still alive and well for for people in Kentucky we've had a very good January and February of this year I think 1.4 billion between the two we're going to have a huge march so Toyota manufacturing of Kentucky is a big employer in in Georgetown Kentucky it's got about 10,000 employees it's the largest Toyota facility in the world and remember when I was on Fox News and we were talking about tariffs I said it's more complicated than just the the tariff back and forth and they said how then I said because the biggest Toyota plant in the world is in Japan and they said where is it and I said Georgetown Kentucky today they announced they're going to invest another $800 million into the plant bringing their total investment to about 11 billion since 1986 or or 87 so they're going to make the Camry hybrid there which they're about to start production on they're going to make the new all electric hybrid which I saw today that's a real three row SUV not one of these small ones and then they're going to make the RAV 4 hybrid in the same facility well that's a big win for us and a big win for the state to see that continue development all right so we are in March madness yes which hasn't been as good of news for Kentucky and our teams on the men's side though as of the moment our women's teams with the exception of Murray are still alive had hard first round game for Murray State glad to see him get there the 30 win season but as of right now today we've got UofL has won going into the sweet 16 Jeff Walls great guy their coach has taken a program that wasn't known for women's basketball and they've been to the final four several times and then run into the buzz saw that was Connecticut in those years and we're going to be pulling for Kentucky tonight when they play as of the airing yeah their center she's an all-american and there's been one of the best players in college basketball and we've got to give a little congratulations in this shout out to one of our previous podcasts episodes with coach Patino that's advancing that's right and coach Cal that's right so we've got both of those former UK and and patino UofL coaches at their new schools going into the sweet 16 coach Cal pulled off the win against high point and then I believe St. John's beat Kansas yes I think with the last second shot and it's so great when you see the replay it's almost like coach patino just knows it's going to happen there's no excitement no jumping up and down it's just no remember that's that's how he described the game against his son that he just barely won I think his son was coaching Xavier yet a night before we filmed yes and and he said well they played better but we had better athletes so I knew when it came when we were close down the stretch
