Speaker 1 (00:00):
Previously on your Morning show with Michael del Cho and.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
I feel bad for all the rest of you that
might still get this flu of me. Is a really
bad month, but it's behind.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Me and everybody.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
I'm not sure. I don't think we should be taking
the advice from a group of people who can't define
what a woman is.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
That was just complete, you know, for those of you
that thought all the idiocy was behind us. Now that
Biden and Kamala are gone, no others have stepped up
in their place.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
It's time for Sounds of the Day.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Thirty seven minutes after the hour, Let's start with Mark Helprin. Now,
Mark Helprin was with what ABC first? I think, then
NBC showtime? Was it CNN or MSNBC, I can't remember.
He was a bunch of me just both both bounced
around and bounced around. So if anybody wants to talk
about the mainstream media, he'd be the one to talk
(00:58):
about it, right. This is an ongoing theme that we
have discussed. The Democrats are in complete obstruction mode. That
may have been the play in twenty sixteen, but it's
a bad play in twenty twenty five because the American
people are behind the president think he's only doing what
he promised to doing what they elected him to do,
and they support what he's doing. So Mark's making the
(01:18):
case that he is speechless over the speed and depth
of Trump's unique second term, the speed in which he's
getting things done, and how the mainstream media and the
Democrats can't keep up and don't know what position to take.
(01:39):
Message to speak and messenger to speak at Listen. I'm
baffled and somewhat speechless. I've been thinking in the last
couple of days, is there anything in my career as
a journalist that I've covered that i'd compared to this?
And the answer is no. I've covered, you know, presidential campaigns,
government's Oklahoma City bombing, OJ Simpson trial. I've covered lots
(02:00):
of big, complex stories. I find this to be extraordinary
and singular. I think that we're covering and talking about
a very small percentage of what's actually happening. And I think,
for the reasons I've discussed at length in my writing
(02:20):
on Two Way, this is a unique presidency for so
many reasons, and we're seeing the manifestation of that now.
It's it's in some ways like a first term presidency.
He's coming in starting this term with much more energy, momentum, newness,
and arrested staff. So he's different and America is different.
(02:45):
We've talked about that a lot. That's not like a
second term president, right you think about the first weeks
of the second term of Clinton, Bush and Obama.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
It's nothing like this for obvious reasons.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
But it's also is a second term presidency in the
sense that he's he experienced, he knows more about how
to do the job and what he wants. And he
also had four years off when he wasn't sitting in
courtrooms or being shot at. He had a lot of
time to think about how he wanted to do this
job and and how to enact a revolution, and and
(03:18):
and you know, the theater of it and the personality
and the and the historical narrative arc are all of
course super compelling. But what matters is the real lives
of real people and the impact this is going to
have on not just American government and the world, but
American history. And I think on that score, based on
the you know, the early returns here after a couple
(03:40):
of weeks, this turns the Reagan Revolution into a joke.
That's a powerful statement. So statement of problem. This guy's different,
America is different. The speed in which he's getting things
done is going to make the Reagan Revolution look like
(04:00):
like a joke. He gets two first one hundred days
and he's taking advantage of him. Now nowhere in that
clip does he have an answer. So the left doesn't
know what to do. I think it'd be pretty simple,
be like Fetterman, don't be an obstructionist. You're obstructing the
(04:26):
will of the American people, not Donald Trump. This is
in twenty sixteen. You know, draw your line in the
sand so that you still represent something. But you can't fight,
and you certainly can't have protest and obstructionist rallies calling
for violence in the street.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Either.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
This will be a congressional fight, a constitutional fight, a
legal fight, and on days like this, a street fight.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yes, we will say.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
That is a representative from Maryland. You know, because when
you ask the question what's their endgame? They didn't get
the election and they lost big, They don't get the
American people today, and they continue to obstruct. What is
their endgame? The good trouble of rioting in the streets
(05:21):
is that where they're really going to play this. If
they're dumb enough to be obstructionists, are they dumb enough
to be insurrectionists?
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Next?
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Let me give you a couple more seconds to think
about that. You know why, because I think they're that dumb.
Here's how Maxine started leading her anti Musk charge in
a rally.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Wow wow, wow, look at this crowd elon Musk. Where
are you bring your ass of a hair so you
can say who's here and what we're doing. We're not
afraid of you. We know that you are the co president.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Now that narrative is so you know, if there's two
realities that Democrats need to get and I don't like
to play right versus left, I just played right versus wrong.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
But this is so stupid.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
If there's one certainty in America, whether you're left or right,
it's that Donald Trump is in charge. The question for
the previous four years that we still don't have answers
to who the hell was in charge. She should be saying,
John Podesta, get your you know what.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Down here of the United States of America.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
But ladies and gentlemen, I want you to follow very
closely what he's doing and how he has done it.
First of all, we're here at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
What is it? This is so important.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
Prior to this.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Organized in the die Frank reforms, consumers didn't have any
place to really foul complaints. They didn't have anywhere to
go when the biggest banks in America was ripping them off,
the student loans were being undermine.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Could anybody use the talk back about and tell me
what the heck she's talking about, because if that's a
fear tactic, there's no fear in anybody. Noo even knows
what the textually talking about, talking about majoring in a minor.
The obstruction card, they're still trying to play it. But
it's eight years later, it's a different Trump, it's a
(07:38):
different America. Well, they clearly don't know what message to have,
and they clearly don't have a messenger.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Here's what Joe Rogan had to say about all of.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
This, and what they found so far is very enlightening
and it's not good.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
It's not good at all.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
So anybody that's not commenting on the hey, you know what,
they are finding a lot of unbelievable waste and corruption.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Yeah, but also he shouldn't be able to do that.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Now I'd love to play a lot more Joe Rogan,
but he never could go more than twelve seconds without
dropping an F bomb. But he's addressing the obstruction of
the left. Wall Street Journal nailed it in an op
ed piece. What the heck are these people in a
room thinking, we're gonna march on behalf of bureaucrats, We're
(08:25):
gonna stand up for waste, keep that waist, keep that waste.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
What are they thinking now?
Speaker 2 (08:36):
If Donald Trump, if Elon Musk, if this administration has
any issue getting their findings to the American people without
being distorted through a matrix of what's left of a biased,
dead journalistic media, maybe the place to go back to
(08:56):
is Joe Rogan, also looking very presidential as Marco Rubio
explaining what is waste and then what is good?
Speaker 1 (09:06):
We want to get rid of the bad and keep
the good.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Here's how he sounds, things like, are people going to
starve to death or we're going to have a famine?
Is it going to destabilize a country in a way
that would be negative to our national interests and open
the door for radical jiadists or others to take advantage.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
We're going to continue to do those.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
But the problem is that the definition of humanitarian has
expanded beyond that, you know, to all kinds of other
things that do not make sense. That doesn't mean they're
bad ideas.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Someone should do it, it.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
Just shouldn't be the American taxpayer.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
So that's the.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Kind of thing that we're going through right now and identifying.
And by the way, you know, we issued a waiver
which allowed all these life saving programs to continue. And obviously,
you know there's any time you have a pause or
some hiccups about how to restart the payment programs, but
all that's going to get taken care of you very quickly,
and those programs will continue. We're not walking away from
four and eight. We are walking away from four and eight.
(09:59):
That's dumb, stupid, that wastes American taxpayer money. We're just
not going to continue to do those so no.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Waste, no corruption, still doing the good work for mankind.
You know, these to always say there's two kinds of Americans,
those that love Neil Diamond those who don't.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Now, there's two kinds of Americans.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Those that see the bureaucracy as a problem, those that
see the ridiculous money laundering and misspending and want it
gone because it makes sense and because it's a misuse
of taxpair payer dollars, and those who lost an election
are trying to even the score by playing an obstructionist card.
(10:38):
I don't think I even have to end this way,
but I think time will tell you who already lost
and who will lose again playing that same game, everybody.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
I'm not joking. I don't think we should be taking
the advice from a group of people who can't define
what a woman is. That was just complete, not a.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Yes. It's your sounds of the name, miss a little,
miss a lot, miss a lot, and we'll miss you.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
It's your morning show with Michael del Cherno
