Speaker 1 (00:00):
Previously on your Morning show with Michael dil Chonah.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
David's and not. He's joining us from IE voters in
the American Policy Round w He's also one of our
senior contributors. And I was setting up earlier. I don't
think it's Joe Biden. I think it's probably John Podesta.
But whoever's running the administrative state from the Oval Office
in the name of Joe Biden, they're doing a lot
of things on their way out the door. The commutations,
I want to dust out with you a little bit.
(00:26):
There were two that refused them because they're fighting for
their innocence and it would affect their trial. That shows
you how little vetting was done in these political commutations.
But you had eleven terrorists sent from Geto back to
the Middle East. And then what got the most attention
was the executive order to ban offshore drilling. The left
ignored the voice of the American people in the election,
(00:46):
and it cost him the election. Doing these kinds of
spiteful things on the way out the door and ignoring
the will of the American people. What might be the
next price they pay David.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Well, obviously it will just make the job a little
bit harder. It's it's just political nastiness. It's worldview manifesting
itself and vengeance and it doesn't wear well and it
won't last, so it'll it'll be harder up the hill.
We all know that to get to these changes, and
it's it's significant because what you're going to see from
(01:17):
Chuck Schumer and Speaker Jefferson or excuse me, and Minority
Leader Jefferies and others, and the House is and of
course already with the corrupt Associated Press leading the way,
you're going to see an opposition in a resistance and
it's going to be real. It's going to be a
very hard, hard job. But the difference is, Michael, if
we can have the courage to take a twelve year view,
(01:39):
not a two year view, and understand it's never going
to be easy and just keep going, the momentum of
truth and the discovery of reality is on our side.
That's what this renewal is all about. And sadly and
tragically it's tragically what's going on in California is one
more example of it.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Really is.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Well.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
I always say the death of journalism, it's now decomposition
of journalism. Yeah, it's dead and decomposing in a casket,
and that was relevant. In twenty twenty four, the left
played legacy mainstream media and it had no ratings, It
has no revenue, it has no influence. Everything moved to
digital what's interesting, And I think they better avoid this.
People like Joe Rogan, you know, Megan, Kelly, Tucker, Carlson
(02:23):
and others won't, but Joe Rogan in particular ought to.
Don't get sucked as talk radio got sucked into divisive
US versus Them politics, or you'll become as irrelevant as
they did in mainstream media. But you know that kind
of ignoring we often used to talk about. In fact,
one of our first meetings ever, I think you'll remember it,
(02:44):
we were in your kitchen and you had your big
whiteboard up and you start breaking down because we were
thinking at the time we were in talk radio. We
talked about every day that the American people pay attention
the way we do, and they don't. A small portion
of them do, and we get a large portion of
them as an audience, and we think all amic to
that way. No, most Americans don't pay attention to politics
till days weeks at the most before an election, when
(03:06):
do they stop paying attention? Because I would think, is
this transition is going on? These going out the door
games they're playing or blocking games once the new Congress
is sworn in, that could really backfire. I mean, they
can have as much as Donald Trump needs to make
his first hundred days count, they could really make the
first hundred days blow up in their face for the
midterm as well, couldn't they.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Yeah, it's going to be a very interesting dynamic watching
this race into the first two years, and first the
next two years will determine the next twelve years. That's
the reality and the direction of them. The political momentum, Michael,
is hard to get back in two ways. One, if
you're in a political party and you've got candidates and
races and you're running in an election, when you lose momentum,
it's really hard to get back. But it's also true
(03:50):
in regards to issues. In regards to interests, I think
that this new administration will maintain interest for about one
hundred days and then people will busily move on to
other things unless circumstances prevail and change all that.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
One thing you know, is on their mind. They want
that border, they want the bleeding stop, secure that border,
whether it's technology, whether it's troops, whether it's rebuilding the wall,
stop the inflow, deport anybody that's committed a crime, after
committing the crime of breaking in that they want immediately.
They want the tax cuts solidified, they want the economy
and cost of living brought down, and they want energy.
They better be careful the games they play to block
(04:26):
all that, because there's a short window where all will
be paying attention, and I think this Floorida is going
to change that. I think that window is going to
be a lot stronger and stay open a lot longer
because of that failure. That's going to become real dollars
life and death and cents that the left is going
to see because when you see the budget cuts, you
see the forestry and water water decisions for wokeness that
(04:48):
created this vulnerability because it was always a proclivity. This
could lead to a much bigger reawakening within the Democrat
party that's going to be shifting quickly into a war
in and of itself right with the far left, because
the Justice Democrats still want to take over that party.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
The problem for the Utopians is they don't have another
worldview to shift to, and they haven't done very well
with their utopian.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Point of view.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
What don't mean by that? I mean people who deny
reality and claim politics solves everything and if you don't
agree with us, then you're the devil that's been that
sort of we can perfect culture, and if you're disagreeing
or even asking questions, you're just getting in the way.
So the challenge is between utopian thinking and reality. It
doesn't even have to involve religion or geopolitics or partisanship.
(05:37):
It's about reality. So I give you an example, if
you'll let me just just I got to get this
lemon a story from Chick fil A in on this conversation. Okay,
I send it to you this morning. It's kind of
like the antithesis of everything we were talking about. The
world's burning down, and Chick fil a headline news is
Chick fil A's lemon cutting robots are cutting ten thousand
hours of labor. Is the headline story that will be
(05:59):
comepletely missed by everybody. It's a perfect example of everything
we've talked about this morning. Chick fil A for years
has been very successful with their lemonade product, big, big hit,
well somebody's got to squeze all those lemons. So they've
had a big factory out in California where they squeezed
all the lemons. Well, when California went to seventeen dollars
an hour mandatory minimum wage, and the utopians said, we're
going to tell you what you're going to pay everyone
(06:21):
because we don't want minimum wage, we want living wage,
so we're going to force you to do that. Then
Chick fil A decided they'd build a costco size, brand
new factory that's completely robotized, and they saved ten thousand
dollars ten thousand hours per day in labor now with
robots squeezing the lemons, and they've created additional revenue source.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
By the way, this is not a utopian lesson needed
to be learned again. We saw this in the state
of Washington. They increased it. The arguments were ridiculous, and
it's what you're saying, you can't raise a family of
four on minimum wage. You shouldn't be trying to. I
supposed minimum wage is an entrance. It's My first job
was WTIX in New Orleans. I made four dollars an hour.
I make hundreds of thousands of dollars today. If you
(07:04):
to have replaced that minimum wage open door opportunity, I
wouldn't have had this job today. So it was never
intended to support a family. It's an entry level position.
And if you're still making minimum wage six months later,
pick a different profession, you must not be very good
at it. But what would we find, Well, McDonald's replaced
the hourly wage employees with kiosks. That's number one. Number
(07:26):
two for those that did get the increase, they wanted
to work half as much time so they could still
qualify for their other freebies, So they weren't wanting the money,
they just worked less. I mean, this is a failure
we see over and over again, and you just get
replaced and their.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Artificial hand of government coming in and it's always forgotten.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
It's always always forgot and re argued. I don't think
you're gonna get away with that with the fire, because
there's going to be hundreds of thousands of acres, billions
of dollars, and really high profile people and insurance companies
that are going to want some answer.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Miss a little, miss a lot, and we'll miss you.
