Speaker 3 (00:21):
Enjoy starting your morning off right.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
A new way of talk, a new way of understanding
because we're in this together. This is your morning show
with Michael gill Charn.
Speaker 4 (00:37):
So picture this.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
You're at the kitchen table with a double espresso, a
nice Napoleon, and the Lieutenant Colonel comes on the radio
to discuss the world affairs.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
N goetr.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Coming. They come in.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
All right.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I don't know where he's been, but James Carafano is
back from his world travels. He will grace us. Yesterday
I texted him. I said, we need a little touch
of the Master's hand today. We've got too many issues.
Billion dollar gazaboard, Greenland, Iron, Minnesota gone, while we need
to go to the top to the Lieutenant Colonel himself,
James Carafatta, and you found that funny That was an
(01:29):
old James Watt James Wayne Watson song, A touch of
the Master's hand about an old violin that just needed
the right guy to play it. We need you to
help us understand. There's one question I don't think even
you can answer. There's one issue I need you to
explain like no one else could. And then a third
which is a development that happened while you were gone
(01:51):
that I want to go over with you. So we
need a touch of the Master's hand. Thanks for being back.
You see, my listeners missed you as much as me.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
That nice.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Let me tell you something. You've really turned into a
very cold old Italian.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
Well you know you know, well the oldest is definitely true.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
But I mean I'm so affectionate sometimes and it's returned
so coldly. Look, my listeners love you and miss you.
Welcome back. All right, Let's start with the question I
don't even think you can you can explain to me.
The President with a bombshell overnight invites Vladimir Putin to
be on his Board of peace. In what way does
(02:33):
Vladimir Putin have the resume to be on that board.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
You know, this is you know, it's almost like Trump
is playing uh, psychological warfare with this guy, because the
reality is he is putting so much pressure on the
Russians on so many fronts, uh and and things that
(03:01):
even if the war in Ukraine ended tomorrow won't be reversed.
It's it's almost like he's insulting him by because because
the guy is you just listen, has no pull and
so uh, I just think it's psychological warfare.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
No, it's powerful because if he's not interested in being
on the Board of Peace, then he has to self
admit to the world he's all about not peace, war trouble.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Well, and the other thing is is if he is
on the Board of Peace, is does Trump thout him
have anything in Gaza noh? Or what happens if if
the activities of the Board of Peace want to expand
in Syria? Is you're going to know, how about Venezuela? No,
So what's he going to actually let put and do
(03:50):
on this board? And the answer is nothing. So so
it's all of the curious. But but I think there
is I think there's wheels within wheels. Were there and UH,
you know, the one thing is he he has he
wants the war to end. And the more Putin continues
(04:13):
the war, the more Trump increases the pressure on him. UH,
and the more UH could maybe look and find it out.
I but I look, I'm not sure it would make
what to make of this peaceport thing. It is interestingly
(04:35):
a the president essentially usurping the role of the UN
Security Council UH and many of the UN functions and
essentially creating but a coalition of the willing to address
with these issues. But what kind of mandate they're gonna have,
what kind of authority he's gonna give them, I'm not
(04:57):
really sure because he's not going to outsource these issues
to a group vote by the board to peace board, right,
I mean, he's only going to do things he does
are consistent with you as interesting gossip. And he's not
going to let somebody else water that town. So I think,
you know, gives them some internet, maybe gives them some
international momentum that he's gone, you know, other people on
(05:20):
board and stuff. I'm not really sure to make of
it at this point.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Well, there's what somebody's got to break the insanity, which
is you know, eventually they're emboldened. Eventually they take an action,
Eventually they take hostages, Eventually they get pounded. The area
gets back under control, only to be having these forces
come back into control. So if you can get other
more reasonable Islamist and Arab nations involved in overseeing, maybe
(05:46):
you can keep that history from repeating itself. My concern is,
it's a billion dollars if you want to be on
this board. I don't want the money to decide the board.
I want the right people on that board to ensure
that future. That one's a little problematic for me, but
they're gonna need They're gonna need a lot of money
to rebuild.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
It's a billion dollars if you want to be a
permanent member, not to be on the board. The board's
apparently a three year rotating uh a three year length
unless you want to be a permanent member of the board,
and then you have to pay a billion dollars. To me,
that's just the president being the president. So I think
(06:26):
on the one hand, he's offering an alternative to dealing
with governance issues. On the other hand, he is still
trying to send a message to American people that the
America is not going to carry this bird alone. That
really literates Dozo or Venezuela and other things. In the end,
he expects other people to pick up the preponderance and
(06:48):
responsibility that maybe the billion dollars is that. I'm not
pretty sure. Here's what I will say is do I
think the board is damaging to American national security international order?
I would say no, No. Is it, you know, a
typical Trump thing of kind of being a little disruptive. Yes?
(07:09):
Is it going to make a big difference in the
end way to see it? Now? Is it going to
significantly impact domestic political issues inside of the United States?
I would say absolutely not.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Lieutenant Colonel James Carafano is back. Didn't you miss his voice?
I know I did, especially as a reason. All right,
this is where I really need you. There are a
lot of people in this, I guess, combination of matrix,
social dilemma, death of journalism that just take narrativized immediate,
immovable positions. But what is the history of Greenland? What
(07:39):
are the rights of the US in Greenland? You know,
what are interests in Greenland? And what is the president
doing in Greenland? And should he? Because I think that's
going to be Well, the good news is they won't
be talking about global warming, but I think it's going
to be the main topic of the World Economic Forum.
Help everybody understand what the president's doing and what in Greenland.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
Yeah, So, I mean, I think this issue is way
over quote. It's become kind of a roar chef's test
for what everybody wants to do. And I got to
tell you, ninety seven percent of the global voices on this,
to me just are just pushlan children who are just
lost reality that the Transatlantic community is not going to
boil up over this. It's just not We're not going
(08:22):
to We're not going to invade Greenland and be having
a breakfast side firefight withut you know, with NATO soldiers.
It's just not going to happen. So the irony of
all of this is Greenland is important in the United
States for one very specific reason. It is a crucial
(08:44):
part of the bridge to Europe. Greenland and Iceland have
been and likely always will be the quick essential waitpoints
in the in the Transatlantic bridge. It's been that way
since nineteen seventeen. Greenland's always been strategically vital to the
United States. The President is one thousand percent right when
(09:06):
the security of Greenland is not optional. He's a thousand
percent right when there is legitimate The Chinese and Russian
things are different. The Russian things as you need Greenland
to protect the water crossing and for early warning for
messial attacks and stuff. The China thing is more about
the Chinese repeated attempts which we've seen over the last
(09:28):
decade plus to try to gain influence on the island
that essentially make like a Greenland and another like Cuba.
So the concerns are legitimate. The kind of zero to
sixty from the present is I think explained by that
by his frustration that people were not taking his argument
(09:49):
that we need a permanent solution for this seriously, that
we need not just to say to let the Russians
and Chinese know and know ins And I do think
the very beginning this has always been about messaging in
the Chinese hands off Greenland. This is not this is
not going to become another Cuba of the Arctic. It's
(10:09):
just not forget it. And the frustration that nobody really
took him seriously to the degree that they did, and
I think the response from most Europeans has been largely
hyperbole and ridiculous. And you know, with a few, very
few leaders like Maloney, you know, people said some really
really stupid things. Now you want to hit the presidence
(10:30):
of some stupid things. He made some stupid dresses up. Fine,
I you know. One of my great frustrations with Europe
and I just got back from your By the way,
is they keep saying I don't Trump, that's enacting the
way we want. And my answer to that is he's
an eighty year old guy. He's the president of the
most powerful country on Earth. He's been very consistent in
(10:52):
the way he deals with issues. He's not going to
change for you. And you can you can cry like
a petulant child that says, my parents aren't doing what
I want, or you can just respond to the to
the president that you know is and just be adult
about this. And and I can tell you how we
got here because I know the history of this. This
(11:15):
is if you wanted to lose fault, this really is.
It's Denmark.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Yeah they fail And let me tell you what.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
So people don't understand Greenland is an autonomous territory of Denmark.
It's it literally is Danish territory. It's the only reason
that Denmark is an Argan nation is because of Greenland
and the Pharaoh Islands. This was going to be an issue.
Everybody told Denmark, this is going to be an issue.
(11:42):
They could have rushed to Donald Trump and proactively said
let's let's deal with the issues, but they didn't. And
when I talked to the other countries in the Nordic
countries and the Canadians and their rails, and I said,
you have to deal with this issue. Trump is serious
about this issue. You have to be proactive and come back.
I have been shown that you're serious about issue. What
they also is, well, you know, Denmark is one of
(12:04):
our art to colleagues. You know, we can't offend them.
It's really their issue. We have to move at the
pace of Denmark. So we all moved at the pace
of Denmark. And we all know what Donald Trump's response
that was. It's like, this is not working for me, right.
And instead of saying, oh my god, you know, we
got to take the president seriously, let's put a serious
offer on the table. People are like, oh, this is
the end of the transplantic community. We're going to go
(12:25):
it alone. America is a bigger evil in China. You know.
Can I say We're going to do business with Chinese
and study Americans. I mean, just really stupid stuff that
isn't going to happen. It makes no sense whatsoever. And
it's just really I just the word immature, petulant child
just keep jumping back into my brain. No.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
No, you've said it three times, two things at one.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
No.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
No, but I wasn't criticizing. I was just saying it,
because that's really what it boils down to. So two things. One,
the president already by treaty can get everything he wants.
He doesn't need to invade it or take it. He
can build what he needs to build without it. Why
doesn't that ever come up? And the second thing is
(13:07):
kind of in our time, in all time, I want
the American people to get this issue, because they may
have a different presidency someday and a saying Denmark the
next day, and we might be right back here. I
do find it hard that we can't have an honest
discussion about this so that we can understand it, not
just for this moment, but for all time. Those are
(13:28):
my two big concerns.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
Right, and I think and I always said this from
the beginning. Donald Trump is an old man in a hurry.
He only has one term as president left. He really
feels like he was cheated in his first ternamor that
people worked against him. He arguedly, it may when the
history is also he may have won the second election,
(13:52):
but he's definitely frustrated what Democrats do when they're npowerful
four years. And he does feel like the two big issues,
the economy and security, I have to I can't solve
them forever, but I have to lock in good long
term solutions in my years I've left sight. He is
a guy on the clock, and I've always said that
(14:12):
Panama and Greenland where Trump's statement of not only like
not another nine eleven, not another Pearl Harbor, but not
another Cuban missile crisis. Right, we're the point where a
foreign adversary can actually do something in the Western hemisphere
(14:33):
which directly threatens our national security around backyard. So he
is he is deadly serious about coming up with a solution, now,
you know. When you're pin said, well, what does he
really want? And I told him, I said, you know,
I pained like twenty in my closest contacts and I said,
what's the president end state here? What will he really accept?
And nobody had answered p right, So I've made answers
(14:57):
in Donald Trump's head. You know when he sees it,
he'll he'll know it. Right. But yer is, you've got
to be proactive and go to the president and show
you're serious about the issue. And honestly, your chef's not
doing that.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
That one is frameable an older man in a hurry,
and not necessarily just with one term. Depending on the
outcome of the midterm elections, he may be less than
a year from what he's in a hurry to accomplish.
Your voice is missed. To try to find time for
us as much as you can. And thank you for
the time today, Lieutenant Colonel James Carafano, God bless you. Yeah,
(15:31):
thanks having you got it all right. Everyone forgets things
now and then that's normal that comes with aging. Could
be a name, could be a word. Sometimes you walk
in a room and you forget why you went in there.
Happens to all of us. But if those slip ups
start happening more and more often, it might be time

Speaker 5 (16:49):
Hi, this is Jenny Bourne.
Speaker 6 (16:50):
My Morning show is your Morning Show with Michael del Jorno.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Hi, I'm Michael Deljoran, and your morning show can be
heard live as it's happening five to eight am Central
and six to nine Eastern on great stations like six
twenty WJDX and Jackson, Mississippi, or Akrons, News Talk six
forty w HLO and Akron, Ohio and News Radio five
seventy WDAK and Columbus, Georgia. Love to be a part
of your morning routine. But we're glad you're here. Now
(17:20):
enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
President Trump may have arrived in Switzerland by now it's
the World Economic Forum, and for once they won't be
talking about GLO global warming. It'll be all about Greenland.
We gave you a nice understanding of the interests of
Greenland and Iceland, what the President is doing, what Denmark
should have been doing, what everybody needs to understand. But
they're drowning and narratives. If you missed our interview with
(17:44):
Lieutenant Colonel James Carafano, you'll find it on the podcast.
It'll be up by ninth Central ten Eastern. Meanwhile, the
Supreme Court could rule as soon as today on the
legality of Trump's global tariffs. And we were going on
and on during the break. The national championship belongs to Indiana.
Indiana got serious about not just being a basketball program,
not that that's been very serious lately. We want to
(18:06):
be a dominant football program. And in a world of cash,
in a world of portal, you can pull that off
with the right coach in two years. And boy did
they have the right coach. Boy did he make the
right call on fourth and long. And boy did the
Heisman Trophy winner do with his feed what he did
all year with his arm win the game Miami. You know,
remember a lot of people don't think Miami belonged Notre Dame,
(18:28):
did they? I don't think there. I will say this,
I don't think any team in the country, but Indiana
could have beat that football team last night. And that
defense was monstered. And then two performances that I keep
highlighting because it's in a losing effort, but Mark Fletcher's
one hundred and twelve yards and two touchdowns that was
a men among boys, including the big one he broke
(18:51):
for sixty five yards. And how about Malachi Tony one
hundred and twenty two yards receiving in a touchdown. Not
a bad Carson Beck performance either, but it all comes
up short, the Hoosiers winning. All right, we warned you
that we were going to play a clip because when
we were doing Sounds of the Day, other than the
Signetti interview, this was the sound of the day.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Now.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
I addressed this earlier. If Don Lemon falls in a
forest and nobody's there, does it make a sound. No.
I mean, this man is irrelevant to me, and he's
clearly going after fifteen minutes of fame or resurgence in
his name. He may find himself on the wrong end
of the KKKAC too and get charged by the Justice Department.
So I'm not taking that bait. But the way he
(19:35):
discusses our nation's founding, the way he exegetes Christianity through
the lens of moral relativism, that I had to play,
and specifically play for our senior contributor, Davidsonadi while I
lower my mic, leave the room for fifteen minutes and
watch his head literally explode. Hang on to yours by
(19:58):
the years as well. Here's Don Lemon on his involvement
and on the issues of Minneapolis going into.
Speaker 6 (20:05):
A church, and there's a certain degree of entitled and
I think people who are you know, in the religious
groups like that. It's not the type of Christianity that
I practice, but I think that they're entitled and that
that entitlement comes from a supremacy, a white supremacy, and
they think that this country was built for them, that
it is a Christian country, when actually we left England
because we wanted religious freedom. It's religious freedom, but only
(20:26):
if you're a Christian, and only if you're a white
male pretty much. And so yeah, I absolutely one hundred percent,
but it's an intimidation tactic. And you know, I said,
I don't understand how I've become the face of it.
When I was a journalist. I do understand that I'm
the biggest name there. And I'm also as I was
on with my producers this morning, you know you and
Kylie talk all the time. My producers were saying, I said,
how did I become the face of this? And my
(20:48):
producers had, Don, you're a gay black man in America?
And there is everything is defined by I mean again,
another great example of mL case. Maybe as socialist dreams
are coming true, but his content of character over color
of skin clearly is still being failed. So there's Don
(21:09):
Lemon impure ego saying he's the biggest name there and
that's why he's the face of this movement.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
That it's not his brand of Christianity. I can only
imagine what Don Lemon's brand of Christianity is. That Christianity
boils down to white supremacy and entitlement. And our nation
was not founded on religious freedom but rather freedom from religion,
moral relativism and goofball meets Minnesota gone wild. David's head
(21:40):
is still intact. I'm looking at it, but joining us
now as our senior contributors CEO of the American Policy
Roundtable and the Public Square host as well as our
senior contributor Don Lemon.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Wow, well you do win the award for the best
summary statement of the day without a doubt on radio
and across the country, as well as for one of
the most found interviews you could have had with Lieutenant
Colonel Carafinal and what great radio.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
So thank you as a listener, thank you not to Lemon.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
First off, May God have mercy on Don Lemon and
on me.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
That is not a smug statement that really I needed
to hear that.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Too, because I need God's mercy and I'm instructed by
the one who extends that mercy that unless I forgive
those who do offense, then I won't be forgiven. Now,
Don Lemon clearly has a worldview that is ideological and
that it's connected to power principle, not even policy, And
of course he's desperately confused in regards to our founding.
(22:43):
But one thing I agree with him about, and that
is that the people that were in that church on
Sunday morning are entitled. They're entitled. I'm entitled, you're entitled.
Every human being is entitled by their creator to the
right of conscience and freedom of worship. And when people
come in and start screaming at children and their mothers
(23:05):
and calling and abusing them and calling them names because
they adhere to a faith in God that Don Lemon
can't tolerate, and they violate their space, they violate their respect,
they violate their integrity. That tells us something about the
LGBTQ wing of the progressive movement, which are the shock
troops of that movement. And it tells you where if
(23:28):
they ever truly got power, where they.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Would end up. Well, that's its take as soon as
the midterm elections. Freedom from religion is always one of
their battle cries, sure, and they could only be getting
it completely wrong. It's freedom of religion. It was designed
to keep government out of faith affairs, not keep the
(23:55):
faith out of government affairs.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
Let me play that out practically, Michael, Because the people
in that church, I know many of the people over
the years who are associated with things like things like
the Baptist Missions Board. This is a Southern Baptist church.
The people in that church have a commitment to love
Don Lemon. Yeah, you notice nobody got up and shot him.
They got up and assaulted him. The people that walk
(24:17):
in Christian faith have an obligation to love their enemies
because Christ commands it that way. That's the whole Biblical revelation,
and that, by the way, is Old Testament and new.
The problem is the LGBTQ community has no capacity for
tolerance based upon their worldview. It's their way or the highway.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
Can I stop for a second and give you the
so Gutfeld is and I'm not passion gutfelt. Please nobody
hear that. You know, as we call it in the
viral internet world. He had a truth bomb that has
gotten traction and gone viral, And that is from the
worldview and the people of safe space. We invade the
(24:57):
sacred safe space of church. It feels like a true bomb.
But deep down, I hope you understand that this is
not a two way street. I hope you understand how
moral relativism and multiculturalism work. It's a weapon, and there
is no hypocrisy or goose gander. It's all used. It
(25:17):
applies to you, not to them. It's just a weapon.
It's a fraud. This will all lend kind of like
Wokeness ended with we can't figure out what a woman is.
All you have to do is address it. All you
have to do is be light and it reveals itself.
But don't ever be outraged or find a truth bomb.
(25:37):
That's not how moral relativetivism works. That's not how this
insurrection activistic paid for mob rule works. They're not going
to play. There is no end zone, there is no
out of bounds. There there is no goal line. It moves.
It moves wherever they want it to move. Isn't that
the deeper understanding.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
Well, they want to use the power of conscience that
they possess, strip you of your power of conscience. And
that's the net of it, because in a world of
non absolute truth, there's no space because in essence, their
entire reality is built upon their self identification, whereas a
biblical world view says that humanity is defined upon the
(26:16):
fact that we are all created by God equal, there's
a transcendent power that we are given at birth that
says you have to be respected. No matter what you
identify and ultimately how you conduct yourself, you still have worth.
And you can't walk into someone's space and attack their children,
(26:39):
and attack their families, and attack their core beliefs and
attack their right to worship, unless, of course, it's your agenda,
which is what happens when your agenda is built upon
self identification.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
You know, David's an Audi or senior contributor joining us.
Everything gets out of proportion, right, And this made narrativized world.
This story seems so big. It wasn't that many people.
It wasn't that big of a church. It wasn't churches everywhere.
(27:12):
It's not everyone on the left acting this way, and
many who are getting paid and the one who embedded
himself in it is just trying to get attention again
paid more. Yeah, yeah, because he's become from a career
standpoint irrelevant. But what if the Body of Christ left
its church walls and greeted them in the streets in love?
(27:37):
But you know how different would the numbers look.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Well, I'll tell you they went to the right church,
because that community is only going to work to see
how they can love those people more. Because they come
from a tradition of mercy. So a person who's had
a mercy extended to them, the natural extension is to
extend mercy. That's the entire concept on the Sermon of
the Mountain merciful. But they shall find mercy. Well, there's
(28:03):
not that capacity in the secularist, purely naturalistic self identification
world of the LGBTQ community. Michael would be remiss. Even
though we're talking about a fraction, a fraction of the
human experience in America right now, there is a continuing
growing pattern of violence at the end of that chain,
(28:25):
and those are the shock troops that seem to always
be there in that realm. They're the most desperate and
so they need the most.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Well, we said they're looking for another George Floyd, and
they found it in Renee Good. They even found George
Floyd's attorney. Now, so this is the same script, the
same political theater. I will say this in conclusion, and
that is as much attention as everyone is giving to
the protesters for the inappropriateness of where they went and
how they behaved, not enough attention to how the church behaved. Yeah,
(28:58):
and I don't.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
Know they'll minister the Don Lennon showed up there today,
they'd open their doors and offer them a cup of coffee.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
And I don't know that if they walked into my church,
I would have behaved as well as they are to
be commended, as are you for finding time on an
off day for you on this show. This is one
of the best ones you've done in weeks. This is
a good one. I've warned it's not the best until
you've arrived. David'll be back in his normal spot tomorrow
(29:26):
in the third hour, and I want to look over
We have a tale of opposites, David. I covered this
earlier in the show, but everything points to Americans trust
by far Republicans over Democrats on every specific key issue.
We got to talk about that, but in general on
the generic pol oh, of course, the Democrats have a lead.
(29:47):
How does that happen? We'll ask you that tomorrow. All right,
I have a new sponsor I want to thank for
believing in your morning show, Rough Greens. Now this one
excites me because the more I know people, the more
I love animals. And there's nothing I love more than
Boom or Baker Mayfiel, affectionately known as Scout. He's an
English shepherd. He is just the smartest, most wonderful companion
(30:08):
I've ever had. They say dogs are man's best friend.
Boomer is now his breath leaves something to be desired.
He struggles with allergies. I thought the breath had to
do with just being, you know, constantly eating out of
the trash cam. No, it turns out it's a health issue,
and I found something amazing Rough Greens. It supports the
(30:30):
dog I love's long term health, providing live, bioavailable nutrients
including essential vitamins, minerals, probiotics, digestive enzymes, and omega oils.
This is not a food. This works with your food.
You don't need new food, and it improves nutrient absorption,
maintains joint and muscle health, and enhances the overall vitality.
(30:53):
This is doctor Dennis Black's formulation. He's helped humans and
pets for over twenty five years. And again you don't
change the dog food. You add Roughgreens supplement makes all
the difference in the world. You love your dog the

(32:00):
Good morning, and thanks for making your morning show part
of your morning routine. This kitchen table belongs to you.
I'm Michael Lanner to serve you. Thanks to Jeffrey and
Redd who served us all very well. Well, it's not
just your imagination. It seems like more and more politicians
are using vulgar language in public. It used to be, oh,
if you got a hold of the Nixon tape, shoot here,
but you never had them doing it in public. And
(32:23):
who are the offenders and does it impact their reputations
or even the respect of the voters. National correspondent Roy
and Neil has been following this story. Good morning, Rory.
Speaker 7 (32:33):
Would you find well there, Michael, Well, it certainly gets
liked and clicked and shared a lot, and maybe that's
the whole point. Clearly, some of the language used by
that mayor in Minneapolis sparked this review by Axios looking
back over history at some of the more colorful phrases
by former leaders at the presidential and even mayoral levels.
(32:55):
And look, it is bipartisan, right, both parties certainly have
their offenders.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
But it's the fact that this stuff is going viral that.
Speaker 7 (33:02):
The cable TV networks don't even bleep it anymore when
they replay it. It's all pretty remarkable that maybe this
is what's finally getting the voters attention. It makes the
politician feel more relatable, you know, they speak like I
do kind of a thing or express kind of the
anger and frustration they're feeling too.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
Two things come to mind. I hope you have the
patience to hear me out on this. One was an
old video I was watching with Huntley and Brinkley and
they were in the Oval Office with JFK and the
President was trying to explain something and he was concerned
that maybe he didn't explain it right, and so he
asked them and they were both like, oh, no, I
thought it made great sense. Well, I don't know, maybe
(33:42):
I should redo it, but if you want to do
another take, we will. Can you imagine Rory in this
day and age? So, I mean, the media thinks it's
their job to crucify presidents no matter who they are,
let alone work with them to make sure he was
communicating clearly and properly with the American people. And then
the other was the first time I listened. You can
listen to JFK tapes. He used language, mostly silly B
(34:06):
word for someone born out of wedlock was his favorite word,
but he would use other words too. But I remember
the first time I listened because my view of Richard
Nixon as a child, and then hearing how vulgar and vile.
He was. I mean, in any conversation, it was just
shocking to me. But you just hit the nail on
(34:27):
the head. This gets clicks, This doesn't get beeped or edited,
and that which is shocking today becomes very normal tomorrow.
And then we got to go one step further to
being shocking tomorrow. This is not only a real bad trend,
it's a trend that's going to get continue to go
in the wrong direction, won't it.
Speaker 7 (34:47):
Well, right, well, now it's Jerry Seinfeld versus Andrew Dice Clay, right,
and this whole argument.
Speaker 1 (34:53):
Beautiful way to say it.
Speaker 7 (34:54):
And yeah, you know, Seinfeld proves you don't need to
work blue. Bill Cosby also didn't work blue, but he
didn't blue.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Yes, it's not terrible when you get a Bill Cosby.
You know, you can't make any Bill Cosby references anymore.
But he does. He was he was the he Seinfeld,
Tom Poppa. There, they're out there, people that are Jayleb
Newhart Heart.
Speaker 7 (35:19):
Even Don Rickles didn't really work blue. The name calling,
but that was different. Yeah, no, so it can be
very effective though, And you know where's Andrew died Clay today?
Speaker 1 (35:30):
All right, we got ten seconds. But second footprint you'll
find on the moon ever was Apollo eleven astronaut Buzz Aldred.
He's ninety seven today. How about that?
Speaker 7 (35:38):
Yeah, pretty remarkable and all that in our thoughts as
we watched that artemous rocket roll out. Even that was
one of the questions to the crew reflecting on Buzz's
birthday today.
Speaker 1 (35:48):
You report great, great reporting, as always, Thank you. Where
we'll talk again tomorrow. All right, one chance to live
this Tuesday, January twentieth. It'll never happen again, not twenty
twenty six. To go, seize the day, make a difference
someone's life. Cherish Rome will see you tomorrow morning. We're
all in this together. This is your morning Show with
Michael del Journo.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
Enjoy starting your morning off right.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
A new way of talk, a new way of understanding
because we're in this together. This is your morning show
with Michael gill Charn.
Speaker 4 (00:37):
So picture this.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
You're at the kitchen table with a double espresso, a
nice Napoleon, and the Lieutenant Colonel comes on the radio
to discuss the world affairs.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
N goetr.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Coming. They come in.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
All right.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I don't know where he's been, but James Carafano is
back from his world travels. He will grace us. Yesterday
I texted him. I said, we need a little touch
of the Master's hand today. We've got too many issues.
Billion dollar gazaboard, Greenland, Iron, Minnesota gone, while we need
to go to the top to the Lieutenant Colonel himself,
James Carafatta, and you found that funny That was an
(01:29):
old James Watt James Wayne Watson song, A touch of
the Master's hand about an old violin that just needed
the right guy to play it. We need you to
help us understand. There's one question I don't think even
you can answer. There's one issue I need you to
explain like no one else could. And then a third
which is a development that happened while you were gone
(01:51):
that I want to go over with you. So we
need a touch of the Master's hand. Thanks for being back.
You see, my listeners missed you as much as me.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
That nice.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Let me tell you something. You've really turned into a
very cold old Italian.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
Well you know you know, well the oldest is definitely true.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
But I mean I'm so affectionate sometimes and it's returned
so coldly. Look, my listeners love you and miss you.
Welcome back. All right, Let's start with the question I
don't even think you can you can explain to me.
The President with a bombshell overnight invites Vladimir Putin to
be on his Board of peace. In what way does
(02:33):
Vladimir Putin have the resume to be on that board.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
You know, this is you know, it's almost like Trump
is playing uh, psychological warfare with this guy, because the
reality is he is putting so much pressure on the
Russians on so many fronts, uh and and things that
(03:01):
even if the war in Ukraine ended tomorrow won't be reversed.
It's it's almost like he's insulting him by because because
the guy is you just listen, has no pull and
so uh, I just think it's psychological warfare.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
No, it's powerful because if he's not interested in being
on the Board of Peace, then he has to self
admit to the world he's all about not peace, war trouble.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Well, and the other thing is is if he is
on the Board of Peace, is does Trump thout him
have anything in Gaza noh? Or what happens if if
the activities of the Board of Peace want to expand
in Syria? Is you're going to know, how about Venezuela? No,
So what's he going to actually let put and do
(03:50):
on this board? And the answer is nothing. So so
it's all of the curious. But but I think there
is I think there's wheels within wheels. Were there and UH,
you know, the one thing is he he has he
wants the war to end. And the more Putin continues
(04:13):
the war, the more Trump increases the pressure on him. UH,
and the more UH could maybe look and find it out.
I but I look, I'm not sure it would make
what to make of this peaceport thing. It is interestingly
(04:35):
a the president essentially usurping the role of the UN
Security Council UH and many of the UN functions and
essentially creating but a coalition of the willing to address
with these issues. But what kind of mandate they're gonna have,
what kind of authority he's gonna give them, I'm not
(04:57):
really sure because he's not going to outsource these issues
to a group vote by the board to peace board, right,
I mean, he's only going to do things he does
are consistent with you as interesting gossip. And he's not
going to let somebody else water that town. So I think,
you know, gives them some internet, maybe gives them some
international momentum that he's gone, you know, other people on
(05:20):
board and stuff. I'm not really sure to make of
it at this point.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Well, there's what somebody's got to break the insanity, which
is you know, eventually they're emboldened. Eventually they take an action,
Eventually they take hostages, Eventually they get pounded. The area
gets back under control, only to be having these forces
come back into control. So if you can get other
more reasonable Islamist and Arab nations involved in overseeing, maybe
(05:46):
you can keep that history from repeating itself. My concern is,
it's a billion dollars if you want to be on
this board. I don't want the money to decide the board.
I want the right people on that board to ensure
that future. That one's a little problematic for me, but
they're gonna need They're gonna need a lot of money
to rebuild.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
It's a billion dollars if you want to be a
permanent member, not to be on the board. The board's
apparently a three year rotating uh a three year length
unless you want to be a permanent member of the board,
and then you have to pay a billion dollars. To me,
that's just the president being the president. So I think
(06:26):
on the one hand, he's offering an alternative to dealing
with governance issues. On the other hand, he is still
trying to send a message to American people that the
America is not going to carry this bird alone. That
really literates Dozo or Venezuela and other things. In the end,
he expects other people to pick up the preponderance and
(06:48):
responsibility that maybe the billion dollars is that. I'm not
pretty sure. Here's what I will say is do I
think the board is damaging to American national security international order?
I would say no, No. Is it, you know, a
typical Trump thing of kind of being a little disruptive. Yes?
(07:09):
Is it going to make a big difference in the
end way to see it? Now? Is it going to
significantly impact domestic political issues inside of the United States?
I would say absolutely not.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Lieutenant Colonel James Carafano is back. Didn't you miss his voice?
I know I did, especially as a reason. All right,
this is where I really need you. There are a
lot of people in this, I guess, combination of matrix,
social dilemma, death of journalism that just take narrativized immediate,
immovable positions. But what is the history of Greenland? What
(07:39):
are the rights of the US in Greenland? You know,
what are interests in Greenland? And what is the president
doing in Greenland? And should he? Because I think that's
going to be Well, the good news is they won't
be talking about global warming, but I think it's going
to be the main topic of the World Economic Forum.
Help everybody understand what the president's doing and what in Greenland.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
Yeah, So, I mean, I think this issue is way
over quote. It's become kind of a roar chef's test
for what everybody wants to do. And I got to
tell you, ninety seven percent of the global voices on this,
to me just are just pushlan children who are just
lost reality that the Transatlantic community is not going to
boil up over this. It's just not We're not going
(08:22):
to We're not going to invade Greenland and be having
a breakfast side firefight withut you know, with NATO soldiers.
It's just not going to happen. So the irony of
all of this is Greenland is important in the United
States for one very specific reason. It is a crucial
(08:44):
part of the bridge to Europe. Greenland and Iceland have
been and likely always will be the quick essential waitpoints
in the in the Transatlantic bridge. It's been that way
since nineteen seventeen. Greenland's always been strategically vital to the
United States. The President is one thousand percent right when
(09:06):
the security of Greenland is not optional. He's a thousand
percent right when there is legitimate The Chinese and Russian
things are different. The Russian things as you need Greenland
to protect the water crossing and for early warning for
messial attacks and stuff. The China thing is more about
the Chinese repeated attempts which we've seen over the last
(09:28):
decade plus to try to gain influence on the island
that essentially make like a Greenland and another like Cuba.
So the concerns are legitimate. The kind of zero to
sixty from the present is I think explained by that
by his frustration that people were not taking his argument
(09:49):
that we need a permanent solution for this seriously, that
we need not just to say to let the Russians
and Chinese know and know ins And I do think
the very beginning this has always been about messaging in
the Chinese hands off Greenland. This is not this is
not going to become another Cuba of the Arctic. It's
(10:09):
just not forget it. And the frustration that nobody really
took him seriously to the degree that they did, and
I think the response from most Europeans has been largely
hyperbole and ridiculous. And you know, with a few, very
few leaders like Maloney, you know, people said some really
really stupid things. Now you want to hit the presidence
(10:30):
of some stupid things. He made some stupid dresses up. Fine,
I you know. One of my great frustrations with Europe
and I just got back from your By the way,
is they keep saying I don't Trump, that's enacting the
way we want. And my answer to that is he's
an eighty year old guy. He's the president of the
most powerful country on Earth. He's been very consistent in
(10:52):
the way he deals with issues. He's not going to
change for you. And you can you can cry like
a petulant child that says, my parents aren't doing what
I want, or you can just respond to the to
the president that you know is and just be adult
about this. And and I can tell you how we
got here because I know the history of this. This
(11:15):
is if you wanted to lose fault, this really is.
It's Denmark.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Yeah they fail And let me tell you what.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
So people don't understand Greenland is an autonomous territory of Denmark.
It's it literally is Danish territory. It's the only reason
that Denmark is an Argan nation is because of Greenland
and the Pharaoh Islands. This was going to be an issue.
Everybody told Denmark, this is going to be an issue.
(11:42):
They could have rushed to Donald Trump and proactively said
let's let's deal with the issues, but they didn't. And
when I talked to the other countries in the Nordic
countries and the Canadians and their rails, and I said,
you have to deal with this issue. Trump is serious
about this issue. You have to be proactive and come back.
I have been shown that you're serious about issue. What
they also is, well, you know, Denmark is one of
(12:04):
our art to colleagues. You know, we can't offend them.
It's really their issue. We have to move at the
pace of Denmark. So we all moved at the pace
of Denmark. And we all know what Donald Trump's response
that was. It's like, this is not working for me, right.
And instead of saying, oh my god, you know, we
got to take the president seriously, let's put a serious
offer on the table. People are like, oh, this is
the end of the transplantic community. We're going to go
(12:25):
it alone. America is a bigger evil in China. You know.
Can I say We're going to do business with Chinese
and study Americans. I mean, just really stupid stuff that
isn't going to happen. It makes no sense whatsoever. And
it's just really I just the word immature, petulant child
just keep jumping back into my brain. No.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
No, you've said it three times, two things at one.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
No.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
No, but I wasn't criticizing. I was just saying it,
because that's really what it boils down to. So two things. One,
the president already by treaty can get everything he wants.
He doesn't need to invade it or take it. He
can build what he needs to build without it. Why
doesn't that ever come up? And the second thing is
(13:07):
kind of in our time, in all time, I want
the American people to get this issue, because they may
have a different presidency someday and a saying Denmark the
next day, and we might be right back here. I
do find it hard that we can't have an honest
discussion about this so that we can understand it, not
just for this moment, but for all time. Those are
(13:28):
my two big concerns.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
Right, and I think and I always said this from
the beginning. Donald Trump is an old man in a hurry.
He only has one term as president left. He really
feels like he was cheated in his first ternamor that
people worked against him. He arguedly, it may when the
history is also he may have won the second election,
(13:52):
but he's definitely frustrated what Democrats do when they're npowerful
four years. And he does feel like the two big issues,
the economy and security, I have to I can't solve
them forever, but I have to lock in good long
term solutions in my years I've left sight. He is
a guy on the clock, and I've always said that
(14:12):
Panama and Greenland where Trump's statement of not only like
not another nine eleven, not another Pearl Harbor, but not
another Cuban missile crisis. Right, we're the point where a
foreign adversary can actually do something in the Western hemisphere
(14:33):
which directly threatens our national security around backyard. So he
is he is deadly serious about coming up with a solution, now,
you know. When you're pin said, well, what does he
really want? And I told him, I said, you know,
I pained like twenty in my closest contacts and I said,
what's the president end state here? What will he really accept?
And nobody had answered p right, So I've made answers
(14:57):
in Donald Trump's head. You know when he sees it,
he'll he'll know it. Right. But yer is, you've got
to be proactive and go to the president and show
you're serious about the issue. And honestly, your chef's not
doing that.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
That one is frameable an older man in a hurry,
and not necessarily just with one term. Depending on the
outcome of the midterm elections, he may be less than
a year from what he's in a hurry to accomplish.
Your voice is missed. To try to find time for
us as much as you can. And thank you for
the time today, Lieutenant Colonel James Carafano, God bless you. Yeah,
(15:31):
thanks having you got it all right. Everyone forgets things
now and then that's normal that comes with aging. Could
be a name, could be a word. Sometimes you walk
in a room and you forget why you went in there.
Happens to all of us. But if those slip ups
start happening more and more often, it might be time

Speaker 5 (16:49):
Hi, this is Jenny Bourne.
Speaker 6 (16:50):
My Morning show is your Morning Show with Michael del Jorno.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Hi, I'm Michael Deljoran, and your morning show can be
heard live as it's happening five to eight am Central
and six to nine Eastern on great stations like six
twenty WJDX and Jackson, Mississippi, or Akrons, News Talk six
forty w HLO and Akron, Ohio and News Radio five
seventy WDAK and Columbus, Georgia. Love to be a part
of your morning routine. But we're glad you're here. Now
(17:20):
enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
President Trump may have arrived in Switzerland by now it's
the World Economic Forum, and for once they won't be
talking about GLO global warming. It'll be all about Greenland.
We gave you a nice understanding of the interests of
Greenland and Iceland, what the President is doing, what Denmark
should have been doing, what everybody needs to understand. But
they're drowning and narratives. If you missed our interview with
(17:44):
Lieutenant Colonel James Carafano, you'll find it on the podcast.
It'll be up by ninth Central ten Eastern. Meanwhile, the
Supreme Court could rule as soon as today on the
legality of Trump's global tariffs. And we were going on
and on during the break. The national championship belongs to Indiana.
Indiana got serious about not just being a basketball program,
not that that's been very serious lately. We want to
(18:06):
be a dominant football program. And in a world of cash,
in a world of portal, you can pull that off
with the right coach in two years. And boy did
they have the right coach. Boy did he make the
right call on fourth and long. And boy did the
Heisman Trophy winner do with his feed what he did
all year with his arm win the game Miami. You know,
remember a lot of people don't think Miami belonged Notre Dame,
(18:28):
did they? I don't think there. I will say this,
I don't think any team in the country, but Indiana
could have beat that football team last night. And that
defense was monstered. And then two performances that I keep
highlighting because it's in a losing effort, but Mark Fletcher's
one hundred and twelve yards and two touchdowns that was
a men among boys, including the big one he broke
(18:51):
for sixty five yards. And how about Malachi Tony one
hundred and twenty two yards receiving in a touchdown. Not
a bad Carson Beck performance either, but it all comes
up short, the Hoosiers winning. All right, we warned you
that we were going to play a clip because when
we were doing Sounds of the Day, other than the
Signetti interview, this was the sound of the day.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Now.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
I addressed this earlier. If Don Lemon falls in a
forest and nobody's there, does it make a sound. No.
I mean, this man is irrelevant to me, and he's
clearly going after fifteen minutes of fame or resurgence in
his name. He may find himself on the wrong end
of the KKKAC too and get charged by the Justice Department.
So I'm not taking that bait. But the way he
(19:35):
discusses our nation's founding, the way he exegetes Christianity through
the lens of moral relativism, that I had to play,
and specifically play for our senior contributor, Davidsonadi while I
lower my mic, leave the room for fifteen minutes and
watch his head literally explode. Hang on to yours by
(19:58):
the years as well. Here's Don Lemon on his involvement
and on the issues of Minneapolis going into.
Speaker 6 (20:05):
A church, and there's a certain degree of entitled and
I think people who are you know, in the religious
groups like that. It's not the type of Christianity that
I practice, but I think that they're entitled and that
that entitlement comes from a supremacy, a white supremacy, and
they think that this country was built for them, that
it is a Christian country, when actually we left England
because we wanted religious freedom. It's religious freedom, but only
(20:26):
if you're a Christian, and only if you're a white
male pretty much. And so yeah, I absolutely one hundred percent,
but it's an intimidation tactic. And you know, I said,
I don't understand how I've become the face of it.
When I was a journalist. I do understand that I'm
the biggest name there. And I'm also as I was
on with my producers this morning, you know you and
Kylie talk all the time. My producers were saying, I said,
how did I become the face of this? And my
(20:48):
producers had, Don, you're a gay black man in America?
And there is everything is defined by I mean again,
another great example of mL case. Maybe as socialist dreams
are coming true, but his content of character over color
of skin clearly is still being failed. So there's Don
(21:09):
Lemon impure ego saying he's the biggest name there and
that's why he's the face of this movement.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
That it's not his brand of Christianity. I can only
imagine what Don Lemon's brand of Christianity is. That Christianity
boils down to white supremacy and entitlement. And our nation
was not founded on religious freedom but rather freedom from religion,
moral relativism and goofball meets Minnesota gone wild. David's head
(21:40):
is still intact. I'm looking at it, but joining us
now as our senior contributors CEO of the American Policy
Roundtable and the Public Square host as well as our
senior contributor Don Lemon.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Wow, well you do win the award for the best
summary statement of the day without a doubt on radio
and across the country, as well as for one of
the most found interviews you could have had with Lieutenant
Colonel Carafinal and what great radio.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
So thank you as a listener, thank you not to Lemon.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
First off, May God have mercy on Don Lemon and
on me.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
That is not a smug statement that really I needed
to hear that.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Too, because I need God's mercy and I'm instructed by
the one who extends that mercy that unless I forgive
those who do offense, then I won't be forgiven. Now,
Don Lemon clearly has a worldview that is ideological and
that it's connected to power principle, not even policy, And
of course he's desperately confused in regards to our founding.
(22:43):
But one thing I agree with him about, and that
is that the people that were in that church on
Sunday morning are entitled. They're entitled. I'm entitled, you're entitled.
Every human being is entitled by their creator to the
right of conscience and freedom of worship. And when people
come in and start screaming at children and their mothers
(23:05):
and calling and abusing them and calling them names because
they adhere to a faith in God that Don Lemon
can't tolerate, and they violate their space, they violate their respect,
they violate their integrity. That tells us something about the
LGBTQ wing of the progressive movement, which are the shock
troops of that movement. And it tells you where if
(23:28):
they ever truly got power, where they.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Would end up. Well, that's its take as soon as
the midterm elections. Freedom from religion is always one of
their battle cries, sure, and they could only be getting
it completely wrong. It's freedom of religion. It was designed
to keep government out of faith affairs, not keep the
(23:55):
faith out of government affairs.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
Let me play that out practically, Michael, Because the people
in that church, I know many of the people over
the years who are associated with things like things like
the Baptist Missions Board. This is a Southern Baptist church.
The people in that church have a commitment to love
Don Lemon. Yeah, you notice nobody got up and shot him.
They got up and assaulted him. The people that walk
(24:17):
in Christian faith have an obligation to love their enemies
because Christ commands it that way. That's the whole Biblical revelation,
and that, by the way, is Old Testament and new.
The problem is the LGBTQ community has no capacity for
tolerance based upon their worldview. It's their way or the highway.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
Can I stop for a second and give you the
so Gutfeld is and I'm not passion gutfelt. Please nobody
hear that. You know, as we call it in the
viral internet world. He had a truth bomb that has
gotten traction and gone viral, And that is from the
worldview and the people of safe space. We invade the
(24:57):
sacred safe space of church. It feels like a true bomb.
But deep down, I hope you understand that this is
not a two way street. I hope you understand how
moral relativism and multiculturalism work. It's a weapon, and there
is no hypocrisy or goose gander. It's all used. It
(25:17):
applies to you, not to them. It's just a weapon.
It's a fraud. This will all lend kind of like
Wokeness ended with we can't figure out what a woman is.
All you have to do is address it. All you
have to do is be light and it reveals itself.
But don't ever be outraged or find a truth bomb.
(25:37):
That's not how moral relativetivism works. That's not how this
insurrection activistic paid for mob rule works. They're not going
to play. There is no end zone, there is no
out of bounds. There there is no goal line. It moves.
It moves wherever they want it to move. Isn't that
the deeper understanding.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
Well, they want to use the power of conscience that
they possess, strip you of your power of conscience. And
that's the net of it, because in a world of
non absolute truth, there's no space because in essence, their
entire reality is built upon their self identification, whereas a
biblical world view says that humanity is defined upon the
(26:16):
fact that we are all created by God equal, there's
a transcendent power that we are given at birth that
says you have to be respected. No matter what you
identify and ultimately how you conduct yourself, you still have worth.
And you can't walk into someone's space and attack their children,
(26:39):
and attack their families, and attack their core beliefs and
attack their right to worship, unless, of course, it's your agenda,
which is what happens when your agenda is built upon
self identification.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
You know, David's an Audi or senior contributor joining us.
Everything gets out of proportion, right, And this made narrativized world.
This story seems so big. It wasn't that many people.
It wasn't that big of a church. It wasn't churches everywhere.
(27:12):
It's not everyone on the left acting this way, and
many who are getting paid and the one who embedded
himself in it is just trying to get attention again
paid more. Yeah, yeah, because he's become from a career
standpoint irrelevant. But what if the Body of Christ left
its church walls and greeted them in the streets in love?
(27:37):
But you know how different would the numbers look.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Well, I'll tell you they went to the right church,
because that community is only going to work to see
how they can love those people more. Because they come
from a tradition of mercy. So a person who's had
a mercy extended to them, the natural extension is to
extend mercy. That's the entire concept on the Sermon of
the Mountain merciful. But they shall find mercy. Well, there's
(28:03):
not that capacity in the secularist, purely naturalistic self identification
world of the LGBTQ community. Michael would be remiss. Even
though we're talking about a fraction, a fraction of the
human experience in America right now, there is a continuing
growing pattern of violence at the end of that chain,
(28:25):
and those are the shock troops that seem to always
be there in that realm. They're the most desperate and
so they need the most.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Well, we said they're looking for another George Floyd, and
they found it in Renee Good. They even found George
Floyd's attorney. Now, so this is the same script, the
same political theater. I will say this in conclusion, and
that is as much attention as everyone is giving to
the protesters for the inappropriateness of where they went and
how they behaved, not enough attention to how the church behaved. Yeah,
(28:58):
and I don't.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
Know they'll minister the Don Lennon showed up there today,
they'd open their doors and offer them a cup of coffee.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
And I don't know that if they walked into my church,
I would have behaved as well as they are to
be commended, as are you for finding time on an
off day for you on this show. This is one
of the best ones you've done in weeks. This is
a good one. I've warned it's not the best until
you've arrived. David'll be back in his normal spot tomorrow
(29:26):
in the third hour, and I want to look over
We have a tale of opposites, David. I covered this
earlier in the show, but everything points to Americans trust
by far Republicans over Democrats on every specific key issue.
We got to talk about that, but in general on
the generic pol oh, of course, the Democrats have a lead.
(29:47):
How does that happen? We'll ask you that tomorrow. All right,
I have a new sponsor I want to thank for
believing in your morning show, Rough Greens. Now this one
excites me because the more I know people, the more
I love animals. And there's nothing I love more than
Boom or Baker Mayfiel, affectionately known as Scout. He's an
English shepherd. He is just the smartest, most wonderful companion
(30:08):
I've ever had. They say dogs are man's best friend.
Boomer is now his breath leaves something to be desired.
He struggles with allergies. I thought the breath had to
do with just being, you know, constantly eating out of
the trash cam. No, it turns out it's a health issue,
and I found something amazing Rough Greens. It supports the
(30:30):
dog I love's long term health, providing live, bioavailable nutrients
including essential vitamins, minerals, probiotics, digestive enzymes, and omega oils.

maintains joint and muscle health, and enhances the overall vitality.
(30:53):
This is doctor Dennis Black's formulation. He's helped humans and
pets for over twenty five years. And again you don't
change the dog food. You add Roughgreens supplement makes all
the difference in the world. You love your dog the

(32:00):
Good morning, and thanks for making your morning show part
of your morning routine. This kitchen table belongs to you.
I'm Michael Lanner to serve you. Thanks to Jeffrey and
Redd who served us all very well. Well, it's not
just your imagination. It seems like more and more politicians
are using vulgar language in public. It used to be, oh,
if you got a hold of the Nixon tape, shoot here,
but you never had them doing it in public. And
(32:23):
who are the offenders and does it impact their reputations
or even the respect of the voters. National correspondent Roy
and Neil has been following this story. Good morning, Rory.
Speaker 7 (32:33):
Would you find well there, Michael, Well, it certainly gets
liked and clicked and shared a lot, and maybe that's
the whole point. Clearly, some of the language used by
that mayor in Minneapolis sparked this review by Axios looking
back over history at some of the more colorful phrases
by former leaders at the presidential and even mayoral levels.
(32:55):
And look, it is bipartisan, right, both parties certainly have
their offenders.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
But it's the fact that this stuff is going viral that.
Speaker 7 (33:02):
The cable TV networks don't even bleep it anymore when
they replay it. It's all pretty remarkable that maybe this
is what's finally getting the voters attention. It makes the
politician feel more relatable, you know, they speak like I
do kind of a thing or express kind of the
anger and frustration they're feeling too.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
Two things come to mind. I hope you have the
patience to hear me out on this. One was an
old video I was watching with Huntley and Brinkley and
they were in the Oval Office with JFK and the
President was trying to explain something and he was concerned
that maybe he didn't explain it right, and so he
asked them and they were both like, oh, no, I
thought it made great sense. Well, I don't know, maybe
(33:42):
I should redo it, but if you want to do
another take, we will. Can you imagine Rory in this
day and age? So, I mean, the media thinks it's
their job to crucify presidents no matter who they are,
let alone work with them to make sure he was
communicating clearly and properly with the American people. And then
the other was the first time I listened. You can
listen to JFK tapes. He used language, mostly silly B
(34:06):
word for someone born out of wedlock was his favorite word,
but he would use other words too. But I remember
the first time I listened because my view of Richard
Nixon as a child, and then hearing how vulgar and vile.
He was. I mean, in any conversation, it was just
shocking to me. But you just hit the nail on
(34:27):
the head. This gets clicks, This doesn't get beeped or edited,
and that which is shocking today becomes very normal tomorrow.
And then we got to go one step further to
being shocking tomorrow. This is not only a real bad trend,
it's a trend that's going to get continue to go
in the wrong direction, won't it.
Speaker 7 (34:47):
Well, right, well, now it's Jerry Seinfeld versus Andrew Dice Clay, right,
and this whole argument.
Speaker 1 (34:53):
Beautiful way to say it.
Speaker 7 (34:54):
And yeah, you know, Seinfeld proves you don't need to
work blue. Bill Cosby also didn't work blue, but he
didn't blue.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Yes, it's not terrible when you get a Bill Cosby.
You know, you can't make any Bill Cosby references anymore.
But he does. He was he was the he Seinfeld,
Tom Poppa. There, they're out there, people that are Jayleb
Newhart Heart.
Speaker 7 (35:19):
Even Don Rickles didn't really work blue. The name calling,
but that was different. Yeah, no, so it can be
very effective though, And you know where's Andrew died Clay today?
Speaker 1 (35:30):
All right, we got ten seconds. But second footprint you'll
find on the moon ever was Apollo eleven astronaut Buzz Aldred.
He's ninety seven today. How about that?
Speaker 7 (35:38):
Yeah, pretty remarkable and all that in our thoughts as
we watched that artemous rocket roll out. Even that was
one of the questions to the crew reflecting on Buzz's
birthday today.
Speaker 1 (35:48):
You report great, great reporting, as always, Thank you. Where
we'll talk again tomorrow. All right, one chance to live
this Tuesday, January twentieth. It'll never happen again, not twenty
twenty six. To go, seize the day, make a difference
someone's life. Cherish Rome will see you tomorrow morning. We're
all in this together. This is your morning Show with
Michael del Journo.
