Hello, my friends and welcome to the Friday episode of Stand Up. Sorry, I skipped out on yesterday. I needed a rest day. It's a crazy, busy week. All as well, though. People reach out. Concern when you don't show up to work, but I'm good, really good. Actually, it was just a little burnt out yesterday. I just couldn't get it done. So it happens from time to time. But I got a lot of other things done yesterday. And I'm happy to have you here today. Thanks to everybody who joined us at last night, stand up. Happy Hour Hangout, subscribers only. We had a great time as always if you want to watch it. There is a link in today's subscriber email along with a shot of vitamin n keep those coming everybody

this is the best time of year in my opinion i love autumn so get out there and take photos

outside of those leaves changing and however autumn looks in your neck of the woods i want to see it

i want to share it with every other subscriber, which is what I do every day.

If you're a Patreon.com slash P. Dominic subscriber, you get that email.

So send me your vitamin N.

Thank you for being here.

I've got a great conversation with J.L. Covan coming up.

That begins at about 27 minutes in today.

And a heads up, I should be going live with Christian Finnegan today at 1.30 East. Look for that wherever you follow me on social media, YouTube, substack, etc.

But first, even though it's a Friday, I've got your headlines and your clips. So let's do it.

Where shall we start? Lots and lots happening. So many giant stories here on a Friday at the end of the

weekend. There will be many more being generated as we speak. Let's start in the Middle East where

their defense minister, Israel's defense minister, Wednesday, ordered all remaining Palestinians to leave

Gaza City saying it was their, quote, last

opportunity. Anyone who stayed would be considered a militant supporter and faced the full force

of Israel's latest offensive. Pretty terrible threat. Where are they supposed to go? I mean,

what a horrible, horrible situation. It continues to be there. And here's a shocking surprise.

A Texas megachurch pastor who built a church called Gateway Church and one of the largest congregations in the country pled guilty yesterday in the district court to charges that he had sexually abused a girl in the 1980s.

64-year-old man named Robert Morris entered the plea, admitting to five felony counts of

lewd or indecent acts with a child.

How shocking.
