Hi, it's me Michael. Your morning show can be heard
on great stations across the country like Talk Radio eleven
ninety and Dallas Fort Worth, Freedom one oh four point
seven and Washington, DC and five point fifty KFYI and Phoenix, Arizona.
We'd love to be a part of your morning routine
or take us along on the drive to work. But
as we always say, better late than never. Enjoy the
podcast starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
(00:24):
a new way of understanding, because we're in this together.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
This is your Morning Show with Michael O'Dell Jordan.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
And Welcome to March Madness. Thursday, the twentieth of March,
Our Lord, twenty twenty five. I am Michael del Journo
on the air and streaming live on your iHeartRadio app.
This is your morning show and your morning shows Spotlight
Interview today is with none other than Jonathan Roomy. Jonathan
was terrific in Jesus Revolution and it is the most
(00:55):
watched show in the world now The Apostle two hundred
and fifty million viewers worldwide. We're gonna visit with Jonathan
about Season five makes its premier in theaters on March
twenty eight. That's coming up in the third hour. Also
a visit with our economist and money with David Bonsen
as the Fed chose to leave rates a loan and
the market seemed to like it up dramatically yesterday. An
(01:17):
executive order is expected to be signed today by President
Trump aimed at eliminating the Department of Education. And you
think you're happy, but not like they are in Finland.
More on the roy O'Neil. That sounds like a kind
of story. You would do, happiest place in the world Finlight.
Who would have thought that? Well, they had the list overnight,
otherwise I would have scheduled that. And it's been chosen,
(01:38):
by the way, not the apostle, I said the apostle again,
did night they chosen? You've traveled the world. Have you
been to Finland? I have not been to Finland. What
do you think is making them so happy there? I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Usually it's the social safety then is typically what doesn't?
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Oh, that's what makes them happy? All right, negotiations now
on two fronts. It looks so things are marching a
little bit, I say, marching, stepping away from escalation and
or world war and towards at least peace talks. Things
that are now marched with troops into the Gazas. So
if the negotiations are underway to put peace deals together
(02:16):
for both Ukraine and Russia and in the Gaza, one
seems to be going better than the other. Was my setup.
One step forward, one step back.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Yes, President Zelensky and President Trump had a phone call
yesterday that's said to have gone well, much better than
the Oval Office meeting of nearly three weeks ago. But look,
Russia seems to be reluctant to agree to an unlimited
thirty days ceasefire, perhaps one that would protect energy resources
and energy and other infrastructure, but Russia seemed to be
(02:47):
violating that at the same time they're talking about doing it.
So yeah, some more talks on that front still to
come this weekend. And when you talk about what's happening
in Gaza, we've seen Israel launch some more strikes into Gaza.
There are some reports more than four hundred people have
been killed in the past forty eight hours in Gaza,
(03:07):
and that seems to be out of frustration that they
say Hamas has not been bargaining in good faith as
they're supposed to be moving toward phase two of their
ceasfire deal.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah. And I'm getting reports too of troops. Troop movement
is really troops back on.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
The ground of a thousand yeah, right, retaking some parts
of Gaza. Yeah, and apparently slowing down, if not shutting
down entirely, the humanitarian relief that had been going in
at higher levels since the ceasefire.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
In January. Roy's going to be back to talk about
the meeting between Donald Trump and about a dozen oil
industry executives. I think it's well, I'm going by photographic
memory here, but I think it's like, is it five
consecutive months oil prices have been down. It's not that significant.
Think it's a total of forty cents, but it's been
going in.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
The crude oil prices are down thirteen percent since January twenty.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Yeah, So those negotiations continue. We'll have now that I'm
electric they'll solve that problem with Warrior in the third
hour eleven minutes after the hour. All right. You know,
we used to kick around the expression Trump derangement syndrome,
and listen, I'm a fair guy. I lived eight years
in Barack Obama. I don't believe I ever had Obama
(04:18):
derangement syndrome. I had serious differences with the worldview of
Barack Obama, the policy views of Barack Obama, and one
at a time I could make my case in opposing them.
I was fascinated by his celebrity status and America's proclivity
(04:43):
to worship the presidency out of the levees of the Constitution.
But I would never say it was direct. But I
know some people that had Obama derangement syndrome. Nobody just
never coined the phrase. But even what I witnessed with
Obama nothing compared to Trump. It is an absolute listen
(05:04):
and the best way to understand it is not listen
to a talk radio show doing examples of it was sound.
You've probably had it happen in your real life. We
had a friend, a very very close friend. I had
a producer who was also a very close friend describing
(05:27):
two examples out of my real life. It was Trump derangement.
And it's not possible to be friends with them anymore
that you would think they're an American citizen. We're an
American citizen. We can have differences on policies and direction,
(05:49):
but it has nothing to do with our bond in Christ,
the richness of the history of our friendship. But it
does and it's not rational. Let me give you a
great example out of the news we've gone from, and
(06:14):
I think you get this Trump derangement to now Musk derangement.
In fact, on any given day, in any given moment,
I'm not sure which leads the other. My guess is
if I licked my index finger and held my finger
in the air, the winds are blowing that there's more
derangement towards Elon Musk than Donald Trump right now. I
(06:36):
think he's hated even more, not the Congress that would
have to pass all these cuts, but him. So here's
Tim Walls. You remember coach Timmy, not the sharpest knife
in the drawer on any given day. Here he is
(06:56):
doing what looks like stand up comedy. Literally, he's on
stage basing with his microphone like he's doing a stand
up back to a bad club. And he's talking about Tesla,
a company of American citizens, a company that once was
the darling of the left for revolutionizing the auto business
(07:21):
towards at the time their green narrative and electric cars.
It gets way worse than this, But you're rooting against
these car owners, these workers, investors. I mean, this is
(07:41):
like being in row three to a of an airplane,
obsessed with how much you hate the pilot and hoping
he crashes. Where's the rationality and logic to that. Here's
Tim Walls listend.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
To give me a little boost during the day, saying
on my phone, I don't some of you know this
on the iPhone. They've got that little stock aapp. I
add a Tesla tude to give me a little boost
during the.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Day two twenty five and dropping so.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
And if you own one, If you own one, we're
not blaming you. You can you can take dental floss
and pull the Tesla thing off, you know, and take
just telling.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
You he's a stand up comedianity. I used to always
say this, and and and I'll tell you sometimes it
was harder to live than others. But I don't lose.
I fight it until I win. I never delight in
the misfortune of others, ever, whether I like them or not,
(08:52):
whether they're friends or foe, I never delight. I don't
want that ever in my spirit. The minute you live
like that, you lost. The things that we don't talk
about are what blow me away. You know what made
this country great was disagreement, was debate. Now it's all
(09:18):
about power and control, us and them. And if suddenly
them like our old car, well we now hate our
old car. Or how about with taxation? The games they
play in the very sin of envy one of the
(09:38):
seven deadliest sins play the envy game. You guys. By
the way, there's a difference between jealousy and envy that
a lot of people don't understand. Jealousy is I wish
I had that car, man, that house is so much
nicer than ours. Boy, did you say they were on
a cruise Barcelona, all of Italy and Greece who went
(10:07):
to Dollywood? That's jealousy. Envy is you have something that
I don't and that you don't deserve it, and it
belongs to me, and now you got to give it
to me. That's envy that passes a house in a
neighborhood and doesn't even take into account the sacrifices that
(10:28):
person must have made, or the right choices that person made.
Maybe you were partying in college and making some great memories.
They were studying in the library. Maybe you had your
job and everything was fun and hunky dory. They were
taking risks that had them burping up acid in bed
end up at three o'clock in the morning. Look at
(10:51):
what you assume. Oh, they got something, they don't deserve it,
and I do. And Envy says, go to the door
and take it. And Washington they played the middleman. And
that's exactly what they do. And it's a moving goal
line for a decade. I followed in narrative and rhetoric
(11:15):
the fine line between rich and poor, that you could
be poor with a three bedroom home, two baths, two cars,
cable cell phones. That used to be the American dream.
You can be poor all the way up to two
hundred thousand dollars a year. But man, you make two
hundred and fifty. Now you're rich, and we're gonna stick
(11:36):
it to you. I mean, it's crazy, but it's never
boiled down. To end the segment on time, nothing crazier
than this, here's a governor of a state of Minnesota
rooting against Tesla stock. It's investors, it's employees, those who
own it. Just months ago, they're darling of innovation and
(12:01):
the key to unlock their green new deal. Now he's
got their stock and he's bragging how it's down, and
he looks at it every day so that he can
get a little boost of happiness in the misfortune of Tesla,
a misfortune they're creating as a party. But why do
(12:22):
I say all this. He's the governor of the state
of Minnesota, whose Board of Investment shows that as of
six point thirty twenty twenty four, the state of Minnesota
had one point six million shares of Tesla in it's
(12:42):
retirement fund. If you work for the State of Minnesota,
your governor is a moron. And unless you have the
same musk Trump derangement syndrome, you ought to be on
the phone to his office today. One point six million
(13:03):
shares of Tesla in the retirement fund, two hundred and
eleven thousand shares of Tesla in its non retirement fund,
and your governor's on stage celebrating the stock is down.
That's how do that's derangement? That's being in row three
to a rooting that the pilot crashes. Only an idiot
(13:27):
would do that. Now, what does it got to take
mentally to get you to be that way? How dark
does your soul have to be to want to see
misfortune in other people's lives. I've never and I've been
on many football fields getting my butt kicked because our
(13:48):
team's stunk, and I never thought to myself, boy, I
hope that guy gets hits in the chest and codes out,
Oh Pete breaks his knee. But these, in the case
of this goofball, his own personal retirement has one point
six million shares of Tesla sick. I mean, it's one
(14:15):
thing to worship at the tee, to power and control,
but it's another when it just moves daily. Just six
months ago, they would have been the darling of their
green vision. Now they're on stage rooting against Musk, rooting
(14:35):
against Tesla, encouraging people to burn charging stations Tesla cars.
Never mind the one point six million shares they own
in their retirement fund in the state of Minnesota, where
their governor's bragging that's what makes his day looking down
at that. Aren't you just sick of career politicians? Don't
(14:57):
you thirst for states? And will they ever arrive? And
will we ever elect them? And that's our journey of
discovery today. All right, what's your plan if you're ever
faced with a situation that demands personal protection? I pray
it never happens, but it could could happen today. Do
you have a plan? I got a plan and the
burner less leave. The launcher is a huge compliment to
(15:19):
my firearm plan. And it's not just for who could
come into my home in the middle of the night
and man, am I going to see a teenager? Am
I going to really want to take his life? And
now I have a way of stopping him without taking
his life? But you could be on a walk. We
have an avid hiker, Jason. He packed his burner and
they had an encounter with a mountain lion that could
have gone really south, but with the burner, he and
(15:40):
his family got away fine. Legal in all fifty states,
no permits, background checks needed. With the burner launcher you
have powerful deterrence like tear gas, kinetic grounds, sixty foot range.
One shot incapacitates an attacker, whether it's a mountain lion
or a human being from up to forty minutes, and
with a burner you always say two lives, yours and theirs.

(16:23):
show with Michael Delchno. This is your morning show. And
for those of you listening on the iHeart app, don't
forget to use that microphone. That's the talkback button. Count
you down three two one gives you thirty seconds to
ask a question, make a comment. Might be fun today
to have you just you know, the question of today
being who do you have winning at all? In March madness.
I'd be interested to see. I think it's gonna be
hard to avoid all number ones in the final four.
(16:45):
I got this from Memphis. Grant wrote, I guess it
would be is it schadenfreud or skadenfreud? I don't know.
I don't speak German, but that's the word you're looking
for German for finding pleasure in the misfortune of others.
Great segment right now concerning jealousy and env Thanks for
(17:07):
that word of the day, Grant. Most of all, thanks
for listening on wr EC and Memphis, Tennessee. This is
Shannon Gregory and my morning show is your Morning Show
with Michael del Jono.
Speaker 5 (17:23):
Hi.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
I'm Michael del Jonno, and your morning show can be
heard live as it's happening five to eight am Central
at six to nine Eastern on great stations like six
twenty WJDX and Jackson, Mississippi, or Akron's News Talk six
forty WHLO and Akron, Ohio and News Radio five seventy
WDAK and Columbus, Georgia. I'd love to be a part
of your morning routine. But we're glad you're here now
(17:45):
enjoyed the podcast. I can say this is Joe in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
But this is Joe Riddle, a dear friend and co
worker and some of the greatest programming instincts of a
young programmer I've ever met. He says, when we die
with the company's values, we stop buying their beer. When
the left disagrees with the company's values, they decide to
(18:07):
burn their cars. We're not the same. Well, that's it.
You'll see in our Sounds of the day that it
just changes daily. Who the enemy is versus Trump. Then
it's Elon Musk then they just start turning on each other.
By the way, there is a would you share with
everybody the breaking news headline on the hill red.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Oh you mean wes Moore star is rising as Democrats
look for comeback?
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Did the great late It shall be on the dawn
of the madness the twentieth of the twenty five The
great Nostradel journo told you, so, when will you have
can listen to my quadrates? Dad? Proud of me? Dad? Hey, Dad,
(19:02):
come to your dog died? What did I say? You said,
when are you gonna listen to me? And then you
said something about your dad's dog dying. And yeah, my
dad's dog died of a heart attack yesterday. And to
hear my father tell the story, Uh in perfect radio tone.
Speaker 6 (19:27):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
She was breathing real heavy. So I want upstairs to
put some jeans on and I could take her for
a walk, calm her down. When I then the tone
changes and what came down? She was dead? My gosh,
but this was a particular part. She was laying in
her urine, So I moved to his side. I cleaned
the urine, nice, nice, and then and then we went
(19:50):
and buried her. Yeah, it was sad. I hate that,
you know, Yeah, something's just done. But she was fourteen
and nobody and I really I think I gave him
piece when I brought this up. Nobody loved his property
more than her. I mean we would get on the
four wheels full speed, you know, hundreds of the bakers,
and that dog would grab a stick the size of
(20:10):
a large branch of a tree and keep up with
the four wheelers. It was like it was like I
was a cameraman for filming Secretariat. I mean, nobody loved
her life more than Sarah, and she died. It's so
interesting and it doesn't matter if you're eight years old
or eighty six years old. Moost stories like that. Is
there anything worse than when your dog dies or your
(20:32):
net dies? I mean, losing a pet is so painful.
But yeah, but I told you about Wes Moore, you know,
and everybody goes you know you loved Wes Moore. Now
I'm just trying to help you see what's happening and
what's coming next. It's not gonna be AOC. It's not
gonna be goofballs like Tim Walls or Kamala Harris. They're
gonna have a real candidate come twenty twenty eight. Just
(20:53):
you need your side to keep doing the right thing.
Speaking of that, why.
Speaker 6 (21:02):
We will wait wait.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Look like a bunch of girly men. Even change. I've editain,
always revealing, often entertaining at your sounds of the day.
So we all you know, as I was using Joe's
email them that wanted to nostr del journal seems like
forever ago. But Joe's making the point that when we
(21:26):
disagree with something, bud Light, we stopped drinking their beer.
When the left disagree, they start burning down electric stations,
charging stations. They burned down teslas once the darling of
their Green New Deal electric innovation. So they've gone from
Trump derangement to musked arrangement. What they but just like
when it was Trump arrangement. What they really hate is you.
(21:48):
What they really love is power and control. They're not there.
I mean, it's very obvious that Tim Walls is not
serving his own government employees, let alone his own citizens
root against stocks. It's just idiotic. It's a derangement. But
they turn on each other too. Take Chuck Schumer here,
(22:12):
he is on the view confronted by one of the
panelists who said, you are instrumental enforcing Joe Biden out.
Don't you think you should be forced out?
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Do you believe that the party has confidence in you
to continue to serve as its leader and as somebody
who's influential in helping Biden's decision to step aside?
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Do you think it might be time for you too?
Speaker 5 (22:32):
No?
Speaker 6 (22:33):
I think that you know my Senate caught first. You asked,
who's the leader when we don't have a president?
Speaker 1 (22:38):
There are a lot of leaders.
Speaker 6 (22:39):
We have a lot of really strong talent in the Senate,
in the House, in the governors.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
We have a great bench.
Speaker 6 (22:45):
But by the way, notice no names mentioned as to
the Senate caucus of which I'm the leader.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
I should be the leader. Dan. Let me just say this.
Speaker 6 (22:53):
One of the things I am known to be very
good at is how to win Senate seats. In other words,
i'm astra in terms of recruiting candidates, helping the candidates
run campaigns and win. It look winning in twenty twenty
six in the House and Senate, which could stop Trump
once and for all, is vitally important. Okay, so I
did this in two thousand and five, two thousands, but
(23:15):
just recently in twenty twenty, everyone said they'll never get
the Senate, and we pulled off something that many people
regarded as a huge surprise.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Yes, you funneled and laundered billions of dollars. This tasty
Abrams who stole the least two Senate seats in Georgia.
But I don't want.
Speaker 6 (23:30):
Interrupt on the two seats in Georgia. We got John
ass Off and Raphael Warnut, the first African American ever
elected in Georgia in one hundred years or a long
period of time.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
And so I am good at that.
Speaker 6 (23:42):
But second, I'm sort of, you know, I'm sort of
the orchestra leader, and I have a lot of talent
in that orchestra.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
So what I do is I show them off.
Speaker 6 (23:50):
We have some great spokespeople, people like Chris Murphy and
Brian Shots. We have you know, Democrats are learning to
do the digital social media much better than we did before.
I put Corey Booker and Tina Smith in charge. And
then we have Bernie going out to Republican areas and
doing rallies and rallying. So we have a load of
(24:11):
talent in our caucus. And I'll tell you one thing,
We are totally united in one thing, many things, but
one thing above all. We are united in going after Trump.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
That's it. That's all they are. This is Trump musk, derangement,
hatred towards you, and a worship of power for themselves.
That's what makes this clip so powerful.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
But look at the list of things that Democrats did,
and let me ask you this before I read the list,
does this sound like they're even pro America? Or does
it sound like their intention is to destroy America? Now
I realize how crazy that sounds, but we'll just listen
to the list, by.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
The way, before he does this list. Yeah, it's burning
charging stations, it's burning Tesla cars. It's what you just
heard Chucky Tumor say, what is a Democrat party laser
focused on destroying Trump? But would they be willing to
destroy America to do it? And the four year answer
(25:19):
from twenty sixteen to twenty twenty was yes. Weaponization of COVID,
changing of election laws, going around state legislatures unconstitutionally to
do it, laundering money, harvesting ballots. They'll do anything. They'll
destroy the economy, they'll destroy your life, whatever, so that
(25:41):
at the end of the day, the des control this
or that as you're broke. So the question really is,
in their obsession with Trump and Musk, would they destroy
their own pension in Minnesota and cheer on the stock
losses of Tesla? Yes, at their own demise. That's how
(26:03):
irrational this is. So let's hear about this, expert.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
So we had the whole COVID mandates, one of the
most destructive things that's ever happened in America. We had
the open borders. That's hard to understand except in terms
of destroying the country. They seem to be anti all
forms of energy, and we know that the more energy,
the more successfully ours. That's anti civilization. We know that
the teachers unions, in my opinion, are the biggest reason
(26:28):
that children are not well educated, which means that the
future is being sacrificed for the teachers union, which is
just an organ enough. The Democrats, we know that they're
doing the Tesla protests and trying to take down one
of the most innovative, forward thinking pro climate companies in
the United States, not one of maybe the greatest company
(26:50):
in the United States. Now, how in the world do
they justify that when not long ago Elon was a
hero to them and it's the same car company, and
it's like, oh, well, at least we got this one
car company that's going to save the climate according to them.
That you've got these activist judges, we'll talk about that
creating a constitutional crisis. Then of course you have DEI,
which Trump is thankfully unwinding. But DEI on paper will
(27:14):
destroy your country because it's a move away from competence
and a move toward identity. There's no way that could
work in the long run. And then we have all
these swatting attacks. These are all insanely destructive.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
It's terrorism, quite frankly. Scott Adams, by the way, and
we talk about a sea of information and an ocean
of voices, and we're reading all the wrong things and
listening to all the wrong people. Scott Adams is a
writer and a cartoonist who is one of those voices
that desperately needs to be heard. He's just so on point,
matter of factly and concisely on point. And what's the point.
(27:55):
The point is I'm going to say it differently than him.
I've been on the radio talk radio now thirty secure
seven years, thirty seven years. Gosh, I'm getting old radio
forty two years. For much of that thirty seven years
in talk radio, what I was really describing is mental
illness and spiritual disorder. Nobody wanted to talk about that
(28:20):
in the public arena, but it's true. And now what
you're seeing is a and you're gonna hear this more
in an interview with Jonathan Rumy. What you're seeing is
a cultural awakening, and what I believe is the beginning
signs of a spiritual revival. We've connected what's wrong, we
(28:41):
haven't connected the dots to the source of truth and right.
Yet when that happens, you'll have spiritual revival too. And
that's what created the Jesus Movement in the seventies. Everybody
says things go in cycles of fifty years. May I
remind you that the Jesus Movement was exactly fifty years ago.
Right now, I can honestly tell you for a third
(29:05):
of the Democrat Party, for sixty to seventy percent of independence,
which is a growing number of individuals, and for the
Republican Party, I don't see the mental illness and I
don't see the spiritual disorder like I used to. There's
one party that still has about thirty percent of its
party that is still debaucherously living in it. And the
(29:28):
lesson of what Scott's teaching you, and the lesson of
what Governor Wallas is displaying on stage. They will destroy
the country if they have to to get revenge on
Musk and Trump, but don't ever lose sight of ultimately
who they hate is you. Here's Bernie Sanders, by the way, And.
Speaker 5 (29:45):
The Democratic Party. You got a party that is heavily
dominated by the billionaire class, run by consultants who are
way out of touch with reality. It has the Democratic
Party has virtually no grassroots support. We are trying to
do is in one way or another, maybe create a
party within the Party of reading millions of young people,
(30:07):
working class people, people of color to demand that the
Democratic parties thoughts standing with the working class of this country.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
And by the way, that's Bernie Sanders, who remember what
we always talk about. The Democrats are in a two
front war. They're fighting Trump, They're fighting Republicans, Americans who
support the MAGA movement, America First, so on and so forth,
limited government. But their first and foremost fighting Democrats. Their
goal is to take over that party. That's what he's about.
(30:37):
Elizabeth Warren's about AOC is about the Squad's about and
it's by design. And so as you're watching the Democrat
Party searching for a messenger, there's a void searching for
a message. There's a void fighting amongst themselves. There's a void.
Who's going to fill it? Don't expect the old Democrat
(30:58):
Party of Tip O'Neil and John F. Kennedy. It's going
to be won by extreme proven failures, the progressives or
this radical socialist movement. That's why I said by the
end of the decade, one or both parties will be gone.
I think the Democrat Party faces extinction. The Republican part
Party is going to just simply become well, Reagan Revolution
(31:23):
meets Tea Party meets trump Ism, so it'll be so different.
The establishment Republican Party is gone. The question is where
the Democrat Party even exist, and that I'm not sure.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
I don't think we should be taking the advice from
a group of people who can't define what a woman is.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
That was just complete. This is your Morning Show with
Michael del Chno. This is your morning show on Michael
del Jorner, the Fed, How interest rates steady. We're going
to talk to our money wiz and economist David Bonson
about that and what caused that and the market to rise.
(32:08):
Yesterday in response to that, Greenpeace being ordered to pay
six hundred and sixty million dollars to a Texas company
over its involvement in a Dakota pipeline protest nearly a
decade ago. Where's the happiest place on the in the world,
Finland apparently, And an executive order is expected to be
signed by President Trump today aimed at eliminating the Department
(32:30):
of Education. We had a long conversation about this shameless
plug for the podcast. If you missed our first hour,
you didn't really miss it. It'll be available later this
morning in the podcast section of your iHeartRadio app. Once
you find it, by the way, hit subscribe. That way,
it's there for you every day. Maybe even give it
a precept so if we're on your preset button, easy
one punch away from listening live and then if you
(32:52):
ever want to catch the podcast, it's right next to it,
So put those on your precept. But we talked at length.
You know, you could go back to nineteen seventy nine
and you could make the case Jimmy Order formed the
Department of Education simply to secure union endorsements for securing
an electoral college map. Its origins were political, but I
(33:12):
assure you its demise is not. Nobody did a better
job than Joe Biden of all people, believe it or not,
to explain to you, and everybody's done it, from Reagan
to Clinton to Obama. Everybody spoke against waste that used
to not be a partisan problem. I mean, who the
(33:34):
heck would be for waste? But what Biden explained was
how they do this. They scare you. So if eighty
five to ninety percent of a money that's designed to
help poor people is waste and corruption, you want to
clean that up. But your opponents will use it against
you and say you don't care about those poor people. No,
(33:56):
you're going to have more money that's gone in bureaucracy
and waste that will flow to them. And that's the
same for education. But watch the left media. We'll all
respond to this as he's going to destroy education in America.
I told you he was a dictator, not at all.
In fact, he can't do anything even with this executive order.
(34:19):
It will be subject to congressional approval. So this isn't
going to happen unless the People's voice and the People's
Congress agrees Number one, number two. Lenna McMahon, Yeah, she
needs to take the necessary steps to facilitate the closure
of the Department of Education in this executive order. But
don't miss the next sentence. While ensuring uninterrupted delivery of services, programs,
(34:39):
and benefits which Americans rely on. And if you look
at the test scores and you look at the preparation
for higher education, citizenry in the workforce since nineteen seventy nine,
were not better, We're worse. This returns the power and
the funds back to the States. But that's not the
narrative you're going to hear throughout the day. We're all
(35:00):
in this together.
