Speaker 3 (00:28):
Starting your morning off right.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
A new way of talk, a new way of understanding,
because we're in this together.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
This is your Morning Show with Michael Dell Chorno.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Funny if you just said because well just because, because
I said so. Seven minutes after the hour, happy April fifteenth,
tax Day, President Trump says Irun cannot be allowed to
have a nuclear weapon. The federal government is freezing more
than two billion dollars in grants to HAVA, and at
eighty one years old, Rolling Stone frontman Mick Jagger is engaged.
(01:04):
Although that story is it unfolds. He's been with her
eleven years for a while, and they already have a child. Right,
He is eighty one and she's thirty seven, and apparently
they've been engaged for years.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
I do wonder we're not getting any talk packs on
that one.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
All right, You know there is something, There is something
about getting off the hamster wheel and stop playing the
consumption game and rolling up your sleeves.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
It's tough times.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Of course, if we all did this, we would definitely
be in a recession.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
But if you're tightening your belt these days, they knew.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Survey says that Americans are pinching pennies more and are
proud of it. Our national correspondent Roy O'Neil is here
to answer the first question. Are they pinching nickels or
pennies because I thought we got rid.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Of the penny?
Speaker 4 (01:54):
Well, right, maybe dimes because it's that serious these days
with one point two trillion dollars in credit card But
a new survey shows that more Americans think it's there's
no shame.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
In admitting to being frugal.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
About sixty one percent agree that it's less tacky these
days to be considered frugal than it was, say, a
decade ago.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Well, we saw the What was the first early sign
was the surge in consignment stores, not just for clothing
but for furniture that that kind of became cool.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
I think as a trend, coupons.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
I don't know if coupons, I mean, I I've just
not detailed enough to do them.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
I'm not above them. I would do them.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
But the newspaper anymore, well yeah, but you know you
get them in the mail and stuff coupon's coop. But
I would think I think a new trend could be cars.
So much of keeping up with the Jones is they're
so expensive, even used or expensive. Who cares point A,
point B, And I don't care what I'm driving. I
wonder if that's the next way.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
That could be, you know.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
And we are seeing a big surge in all those
vintage markets, right, which is essentially just a used clothing sale.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Right, they call it. Everything is vintage these days.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
But yeah, especially among younger people, it's just also just
a change of attitude. I think that the attitude about
frugality maybe changing more than the actual behaviors out there.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
But we're seeing that.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
I think the survey found that people who are Gen
X or baby boomers had said that they would rather
talk to their coworkers about their digestive issues rather than
talk to them about financial issues.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
That's the rule for the older set.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
And let me just put a message out to my coworkers,
I don't want to hear about your digestive issues.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Well, Rory, it's funny you would bring that up. I'm
coming off a twenty four hour fast and I've noticed
not boom.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Yeah, and then you know, we already know your digestive issues.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
You don't have to tell us, all right, So I
think this is a great story. I think it's cool
to be frugal. And I can tell you one thing.
And this is another one of those observations I have
because I'm raising them. There's something about this young generation
that I'm noticing is different. And it's not you know, impulsive,
(04:05):
frivolous purchases. I mean, I don't think this is just
my kids, because I'm noticing it with their friends too.
They'll work hard, which is different from previous charities. But
they'll work hard and they'll buy expense one expensive or
you know, in other words, if if I'm prioritizing earbuds
or sunglasses, I'm getting the best there is, so they
(04:25):
buy lesser, but when they buy, they buy quality. I
wonder if that, you know, would still fall under frugal
because it's going to change consumption patterns.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
I think, well, then you look at those knuckleheads out
at Coachella and say, oh, they're a lost generation.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
And they felt the earth moved. Royandeo will be back
in the third hour with more. I should peek at
what you're going to be back with. I usually do
that pretty regularly. Limit survey for next year. Yes, that's
an important one. We're gonna be back in the third
hour with that.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
All right.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
One of our featured stories today, and again you know,
we talk about David Sanadi and.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
I split hairs with this.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
I think I'm correct in saying journalism has died and
the influence of my generation where you picked up a
newspaper and well, if it's in the newspaper, it must be,
or if you're watching sixty minutes or the nightly news,
it must be. Toto's pulled the curtain. Everybody's seen the
(05:27):
Wizard of Bias for what it is. And I point
to twenty sixteen when Donald Trump ran against Hillary Clinton.
That's when they just took the gloves off, and they
didn't even care if you saw. They pulled out all
the stops to control the narrative, to silence any opposing views,
and they just let their bias out for all to
be seen.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Some of their.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Networks even went all in on Obama before that, and
somewhere along the line, and Donald Trump played a role
in this, and the mag of movement played a role
in this. Journalism's dead, it has the technology played a
role too, don't get me wrong. But it has no influence,
it has no revenue. It's just dead. But it still
(06:11):
exists and it's still out there and we allow it in.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
So you get this kind.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Of what I call the death of journalism aftermath.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
So there's a.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Story brewing, and if you didn't take the time to
go find out the truth, it's just sitting there and
you might be hearing it from co workers. You may
see it from some of your leftist friends postings on Facebook.
I don't know, and you might be thinking to yourself,
what's going on with this guy who apparently got accidentally
caught up in the whole deportation net and isn't Al
(06:47):
Salvador and doesn't deserve to be there, and why won't
Donald Trump bring him back? I mean, why is he
hanging onto this card? If you got somebody by accident
return them. Of course that's not the story, that's the narrative.
And the mainstream media won't let go. They even have
the you know, what's bigger than a giraffe to walk
in the Oval office where Donald Trump's not just sitting
(07:08):
there with the you know, by himself, He's.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Sitting with the L.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Salvadorian President, and then he's got his secretary of State,
he's got his attorney general, and you got the nerve
to ask the question, and bus chops over like what
are you doing? Why won't you bring this guy back? Yeah,
(07:33):
it's death of journalism. Yeah, it's priceless. A mainstream media
that couldn't wait to ask the question, not only did
Donald Trump our president, but to the L Salvadorian president
regarding the returning of kill Mark Garcia. And of course
what they got to their narrative ridiculous question was a
(07:55):
reality surprise answer. No, I'm not releasing him. I mean
it was just a priceless moment.
Speaker 5 (08:04):
Listen, Yeah, but I'm not releasing I mean, we're not
very fond of releasing to.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
I'm not very fond of releasing terrorists into my country.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
What are you asking now?
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Donald Trump's going to chime in here in a second,
but I just wanted to interject this. And I don't
like when this happens. When you have reasonable people say
reasonable things, not heroic. Reasonable people saying reasonable things in
a time where only a few are intellectually or reality challenge,
(08:40):
we tend to make them heroes, just like we like
to celebrate victimhood. Something really preventable and dumb happens. An
illegal immigrant kills somebody or goes on a driving spree
mowing people over, and then our answer is not to
do what Donald Trump's doing, secure the border, realize all
(09:03):
man is not inherently good. Some hate us for religious reasons,
for political reasons, for illegal reasons, gang members, You protect
your citizens. You're New Orleans strong when you put the
barricades up before New Year's not after.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
So I hate when we do that.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
But having said that, and may I say, having said
that is one of the biggest butts you'll ever see.
It's the kind of butt you see on a plane
and go that guy's not sitting next to me, is
he ill have no room. This is a big Having
said that, butt.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
I'd make a hero out of this guy. Am I
the only one that just loved the l Salvadorian president.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
He's like Donald Trump's mini me.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
It's not jd. Vance, it's the El Salvadorian President. All right.
Let me go back to the answer. So somebody in
our Death of Journalism media asked the El Salvadorian President
are you going to release kill mar Garcia, an MS
thirteen gang member and terrorist? And here's the answer.
Speaker 5 (10:10):
Yeah, but I'm not releasing I mean, we're not very
fond of releasing terrorists into our confy. We just turned
the murder capital of the world to the safest country
in the Western Hemisphere, and want us to go back
into the releasing criminals so they can.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Go back to being the murder capital of the world.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
That's not going to be well, they'd love.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
To have a criminal you know, reaction. I mean, I
mean there's a fascould love it.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Yeah, sick piece of sick people.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Oh I'm light headed.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
I mean, that's a Friday with forty seven moment, right,
This guy that we just went from the murder capital
to one of the safest cities in the Western hemisphere.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
You want me to go back. No, I'm not releasing
this criminal.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
They can't even it's like, you know, I don't know.
It's like trying to communicate with a zoo animal. I
guess with the mains. But that's the dead death of journalist.
That's the mainstream media. Let me just recap for everyone
if you don't know the story. All right, So, A,
he is a gang member. That's proven. B he was
(11:11):
in the country illegally. C he was sent back to
his home country of origin, Al Salvador. You're sitting in
the Oval office with the President of the United States
and the president of Al Salvador, and you got the
gall to ask a question, You're not going to release
this this terrorist. So then you have the president saying, no,
I'm not releasing them. I just made my country safe.
(11:33):
I'm not going back to that. But i'm the practice
of releasing terrorists, Like who are these people? Then you
got our presidents saying, oh, they're sick, they would they
would release them. And what is narrative meeting here reality?
This is an innocent guy that accidentally got deported and
we won't admit it. And bring him back, and it's
not a Supreme Court decision that needs to be made.
It's not our jurisdiction, which is what Marco Rubio chimed
(11:55):
in with, what Pambondi chimed in with. There's no question
he was a gang member, there's no question he was
in the country illegally. Therefore, with our ruling of terrorism,
he was removed. He is now in the possession of
a sovereign nation and it's their right to do with him.
So it's not our call. But the media will not
(12:16):
let go of this false narrative, and it might be
playing on CNN, it might be playing in the Washington
Post or The Atlantic or Axios or wherever, and in
that form of the matrix, they probably really believe that
this is some poor innocent guy, probably on his way
to work, living the American dream, not getting due process,
(12:38):
and this is stubborn Donald Trump, a dictator, a tyrone hitler,
won't bring him back.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
It's not our it's not a person for us to
bring back, and.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
It's certainly not a terrorist that the Salvadorian government and
its president are wanting to send back. Stay in prison.
We don't release people into the streets. We're in the
business of being safe now. So bottom line, you bought
a narrative. Second bottom line, this president isn't going to
(13:10):
release him. Third bottom line is will the mainstream media
release this narrative?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Not yet is the answer.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chorno.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Well, if you're just waking up.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
President Trump says he knows the top three people behind
the ongoing Russian Ukraine War.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Mark Mayfield explains, speaking from the Oval.
Speaker 6 (13:32):
Office Monday, Trump stand in order, Russian President Putin, former
President Biden, and Ukraine President Zelensky are culpable.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
The mistake was letting the war happen. If Biden were competent,
and if Zelensky were competent, and I don't know that
he is.
Speaker 7 (13:48):
We had a rough session with this guy out of
the year, if he just kept.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Asking for more and more.
Speaker 6 (13:53):
Trump was referring to the heated meeting at the White
House with Zelenski. The President said Biden should have stopped
the war, Zelensky should allotted to continue, and Putin should
not have started it.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Trump added, he's doing his best to end it with
a peace plan. Mark Nearfield.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
White House correspondent John Decker was there, He'll have more
in less than ten minutes. Mark Zuckerberg took the stand
yesterday as a major antitrust trial involving Facebook parent company
Meta got underway in our nation's capital. The Federal Trade
Commission accuses the social media giant of creating a monopoly
by buying up rivals Instagram and WhatsApp. Iras Spencer has
(14:27):
more on this.
Speaker 8 (14:28):
The trial, which is expected to last about two months,
could ultimately lead to Meta being.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Forced to sell off those assets.
Speaker 8 (14:36):
However, Meta's attorneys pointed to development such as the rise
of TikTok to show that competition has been alive and well.
After the opening statements, the FTC then called Meta CEO
Mark Zuckerberg to the stand as its first witness. The
trial is also expected to feature other high profile witnesses,
including Meta's former chief operating officer Cheryl Sandberg, and Instagram
(15:00):
Adam Musseeri Iris Fitzer San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
Now, the only three of those products that I'm even
on is Facebook. And when I say on, I mean
I post things there. But I you know, I just
call balls and strikes.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
I'm not a fan of Mark Zuckerberg or his political
leanings or his political meddling in certain state issues. But
I don't get this one at all. I mean, if
you're going to start busting people up, Hey, what about Google?
What about Disney? What about Comcast? A former NC DOUBA
Woman of the Year, is among the six people killed
in a plane crash in New York State on Saturday
(15:36):
at Lisa Taylor has More.
Speaker 9 (15:37):
The NTSB said, the crash investigation is in its early stages.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
It's important that the public.
Speaker 10 (15:42):
Have trust the investigative process and that we've not only
ruled in, but.
Speaker 5 (15:45):
Moved out everything we could have been a contributing factors.
Speaker 9 (15:49):
Former MIT soccer player and twenty twenty two NC double
A Woman of the Year, Corona Groff died in the crash,
along with Groff's boyfriend, her father, mother, brother, and her
brother's partner. The plane carrying the victims took off from
White Planes and crashed near the Massachusetts border. I'm he's
a Taylor.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
President Trump honored the Buckeyes at the White House, but.
Speaker 6 (16:07):
Today is my great honor to welcome the twenty twenty
four college football national champions at the Ohio State University.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
And the Vice president, an Ohio State graduate told the
team this.
Speaker 10 (16:21):
I asked the President on January the twenty. They said, Sir,
would you mind if I skipped that final inaugural ball
to go to the Ohio State National Championship game? And
the President said no, but we'll have him at the
White House.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
So here we are.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
And then he went on to break the trophy, which
he said he didn't want anyone else to win it,
so he decided to break it.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
It was quite a day for the Buckeyes at the
White House. That's your top five stories of the day.
Speaker 11 (16:45):
This is Debo Morris from our little town of Franklin, Tennessee.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
My morning show is your Morning Show with Michael DELTROYA.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Hi, I'm Michael.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I'd love to have you listen to your morning show
live every day. We're hurt on great stations like News
Talk five point fifty KFYI and Phoenix News Radio, eleven
ninety k EX in Portland and ten ninety The Patriot
in c app Make us a part of your morning routine.
We'd love to have you listen live, but in the meantime,
enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
It's tax Day.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
We're going to talk to William Federer next hour or
If you miss it, you'll catch it in the podcast.
He is a historian and an author the book Interesting
History of Income Text on this tax Day, I think
it'll blow your mind. And then we had a blow
your mind. Pulls a plenty on the matrix. It appears
as though it's going to widen before it snaps and breaks.
(17:38):
The Republican Party is now fifty percent to seventy percent
MAGA and handing even more in that direction. I think,
probably more accurately, it's a combination of the Reagan Revolution,
the Tea Party, and the Maga movement all combining. That's
the new Republican Party and it's here to stay in
a different form. As for the Democrats, they are out
of step with the American people, and the pivot needs
(18:00):
to be towards the American people, which I guess would
be politically towards the center. They plan to do just
the opposite. And I got an email real quick. I
want to get in from Roger. Good morning. I'm a
little troubled that I said something yesterday that seemed to
upset you a little.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Roger, you do not upset me.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Stop listening to your wife about your talkbacks and your emails.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
They're always welcome. I love you.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
I'm guessing I misunderstood why you left the Republican Party,
and I was thinking about making a similar decision.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Sometimes my words do not match my thoughts. Well they did,
they didn't.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Actually, I thought you were asking how you literally do it,
And it depends if you live in a state where
you register as a Republican or a Democrat, you would
need to switch to independent. Some would say, strategically, don't
do that, because then you don't have a say in
the primary. In my state, you don't register that way.
So I was answering you literally why I left. I
have nothing in common with Democrats. Their worldview is anathetical
(18:52):
to mind. Their policy views and platform is anathetical to mine,
so that's not an option. The Republican Party platform was
always good, but they rarely lived it. We didn't get
thirty six trillion dollars in debt just because of Democrats.
Republicans are just as bad, and I got sick of
them too, And I think both parties are a part
(19:13):
of the problem. So both don't own my blind trust. Therefore,
I am authentically an independent, though I would say I
caucus with Republicans, mostly as you could only imagine coming up.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Our sounds of the day. And you know, I said
this earlier.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
You know, there's a lot of tariff talk and tariff
war talk, but what about the wars? What's going on
in the Middle East? What is the future of the
Gaza is Hamas in check, What's the future of the
Ukrainian Russian war? This was as big as the border
for Donald Trump, and I think it still means a
lot to him. But yesterday we got a glimpse of
(19:52):
just how shaky things are. And our White House correspondent
John Decker was there for all of it. So Donald Trump,
basically missing Zelenski again and even more specifically about the
last visit, didn't have very many good things to say.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
About Vladimir Putin or Joe Biden either.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
What did you make of yesterday's framing of this peace
talk situation in Washington?
Speaker 11 (20:17):
There is a lot of frustration that President Trump feels
right now. The reason being is because that thirty day
ceasefire that the administration presented to both sides, it was
accepted by Ukraine a month and a half ago, it
is yet to be accepted by Russia and Russia shows
no effort at all in terms of trying to come
(20:41):
to some sort of an agreement to temporarily have peace
between Russia and Ukraine. We saw over the weekend this
civilian attack that killed dozens of individuals in Ukraine because
of Russian Michel missiles that were launched against civilian areas,
and that I think is very frustrating for the president.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
All Right, So probably the statement that sticks out in
my mind i'd like to get your response to when
the President says he had nothing good to say about
Joe Biden and kind of lames. He said this wouldn't
have happened if he had been president. We heard that
throughout the campaign, but he had some really negative things
to say about Zelensky. The one that didn't sit well
with me was you don't start wars against countries ten
(21:24):
times bigger than you and expect everyone else to.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
I don't that part. I don't know that. I get
you know, but I.
Speaker 11 (21:31):
Don't get it either. Well, Ukraine did not start this war.
I'm runched by Russia three years ago, so you know,
they're defending themselves. Ukraine is against a much larger country.
That is true, but a reminder our country defeated a
much larger country known as Great Britain, you know, almost
two hundred and fifty years ago, So it is possible
(21:54):
to defeat a larger country. We have proved that fact,
and I realized things are different right now, and this
is democracy versus an authoritarian government, and that's what's at stake,
and you know, that's what's at stake also for Europe.
But I think that what we see right now three
visits by Steve Whitcoff, who's he he's the special envoy
for the president, three visits to Russia and nothing has
(22:17):
come out of those three visits.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
That is frustrating.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Well, the President, you know, I understand, if you're trying
to be the peacemaker, you've got to be you know,
impartial and in the middle. You got to share the
blame with both sides. But I would I mean, for
me anyway, I would have no problem remembering who invaded
who and where our interests lie. That the President kind
of walked all over. I don't know if that's part
(22:41):
of the art of the deal, but it all appears
to be unraveling, is my view of it.
Speaker 11 (22:46):
What's yours, Well, I'd agree with you. You know, there is
a rumor, and I'm going to share that rumor with you,
you know, and I don't normally pass along rumors, but
this one, you know, is not hurtful in any way.
There's a rumor that when President Trump travels to Saldi
Arabia in the middle of next month, in mid May,
that during that visit to Riad, Saudi Arabia, he will
(23:07):
be meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. And there's, you know,
something that leads me to believe that could indeed be happening.
MBS is a person who's a good broker. He has
good relations with both Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. But
the problem is, though, Michael, it's very difficult to have
(23:30):
a meeting if ahead of time you don't have any
deliverables to come out of this meeting. And I think
that's the frustrating thing for the president. It's frustrating for
our Secretary of State Mark Rubio as well.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
Yeah, and everybody who played the narrative game with that too.
He met Mizielensky in the White House. He has yet
to meet in person with Putin, so that would be equal.
But you know, you would think a neutral site with
both parties might be the next step.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
But I guess we're not there yet. That's what yesterday.
Speaker 11 (23:57):
We're not there. We're not there yet both parties know.
That's why I think that a meeting in Saudi Arabia
with Putin and Trump president that makes sense in the
next step, you know. I mean, maybe the president can
use that good relationship is he describes it that he
has with Vladimir Putin to convince him, at the very
(24:19):
least Michael to agree to what Ukraine has already agreed to.
And that's that thirty day ceasefire. Well, everybody's focused on
the tariff talks. And if you were wondering how the
peace talks are going, the answer is not well.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
And John Decker was there not well till witness. Thanks
for joining us, John, I look forward to tomorrow. God
bless all right.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Forty three after the hour.
Speaker 7 (24:37):
Time for people who majored an online activism with a
minor and puberty block a little bit.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Any of you in the media clearly meant.
Speaker 11 (24:48):
The art of the deal. It's going to work out. Well.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
There's two things.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Every time Bezo puts a rocket in the air, I
get visions of doctor Evil.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
There's that.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
The other is everyday people, all wa and crew. I
get the themes. Then I think in terms of the people.
I mean, I'm not a big fan of Katy Perry,
but you know I am a fan of the courage.
It took to I couldn't do it. Would you, guys,
anybody you would get ride? You both would just to
get a chance at seeing it. I listen, I don't like.
(25:20):
My palms are sweating thinking about it. Just that's how real.
I do not like heights. I just don't know if
the heights are so high that it kind of negates.
In other words, like I'm a lot more uncomfortable on
a ledge than I am in an airplane, So maybe
this is like that. But there's no question even in orbit,
let alone deep space, it's a life changing experience, and
(25:41):
it certainly was for Katy Perry.
Speaker 12 (25:43):
It is the highest high, and it is surrender to
the unknown, trust, And this whole journey is not just
about going to space. It's the training, it's the team,
it's the whole thing. I couldn't recommend this experience more.
(26:04):
This is like up there with all the you know, different.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Tools that I've.
Speaker 12 (26:10):
Learned in my life from meditation to the Hoffmann process.
This is up there because what you're doing is you're
find you're like really finding the love for yourself because
you've got to trust in yourself.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
On this journey.
Speaker 12 (26:21):
And then you're feeling the love when you come down
for sure, and you're feeling that strength. So I feel
really connected to that strong, divine feminine right now.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
By the way, you're such a badass.
Speaker 8 (26:32):
I loved that the month of April, You're like, I'm
going to space and I'm launching my tour.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
It is that, I mean, you know, I mean, I
guess that's a leftist description of what it's like to
be in a devenly space and keep got out of it.
I don't know, but I would think, you know, that
would just be I don't know that I could do it.
I would do it for you, well, you'd be up
(26:56):
there with Gail bouncing around.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
I would do it, just not on that.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
And now we know how lip fillers will respond in space.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
They did really well.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
They did really well. All right, this was my favorite
sound of the day. All right, So we've kind of
did this in another segment, so I don't want to
kind of relitigate it.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
But in the case of.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Kill Mark Garcia, he is a gang member, I mean
Red and that we're talking off there, and Red made
a great point. So the Biden administration's justification for allowing
him into the country was that he was in danger
of rival gang violence in El Salvador. That's pretty much
acknowledging he's a gang member, all right, So we know
he's an MS thirteen gang member.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
We know he was in the country illegally.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
However, stupid the previous administration was to allow him to
be here. So wasn't some innocent guy that accidentally got
caught in the net and sent to El Salvador. And
now the president stubbornly won't bring him back. Now, this
is a gang member and a criminal, and he's now
in Al Salvador prison, and our media, sticking to a
narrative over reality, has the nerve to not just ask
(27:59):
our president, right in front of our president in the
oval office, the Al Salvadorian president, if he would release
this criminal. And of course his answer was no, yeah, but.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
I'm not releasing I mean, we're not very father releasing
to us in our country. We just turned the murdered
coupit of the world into the safius country the western hemisphere,
and he want us to go back into the releasing
criminals so they can go back to being the murdered
capital of the world.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
That's good, that's not going to be mapped. Well, they'd
love to have a criminal you know.
Speaker 5 (28:28):
I mean, I mean, there's there's the fasoul love it.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Yeah, shick piece of shick people.
Speaker 13 (28:35):
Yeah, I mean, Stephen Iland just I don't understand what
the confusion is. This individual is a citizen at all, savagor.
He was illegally in the United States and was returned
to his country. That's where you deport people back to
their country of origin, except for Venezuela. That wasn't refusing
to take people back of places like that. I can
tell you this, mister President. No, the foreign policy of
the United States is conducted by the President of the
(28:57):
United States, not by a court. And no court in
the United States has a right to conduct the foreign
policy of the United States.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Is that simple.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
And the story, I mean, look, I know about the
death of journalism that coined the phrase, but to stand
in the overlaw and it's so, I mean, the President's
sitting there the Secretary of State sitting there, the Vice
President sitting there, the Attorney General sitting there. Advisors are
all filled in the room, and you ask this ridiculous
(29:25):
narrative question of an El Salvadorian president and a United
States president, and they wonder why they have no influence
or trust from the American people. Pollsters, is Donald Trump
(29:46):
being hurt politically by all this terrative and economic turmoil? Well,
the bottom line answer is only if you believe the
polsters that have been wrong in all the elections. The
pollsters that have been writing every elections show no harm whatsoever,
which would suggest the American people get this issue better
(30:07):
than the media. Again, evidence number two that is dead.
Speaker 7 (30:13):
If you look at the polls that are out by
pollsters who did well in the twenty four and twenty elections,
President Trump has had a minor decrease in his approval rating, but.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Very minor, not significant.
Speaker 7 (30:25):
When you look at the pollsters that like the Nate
Silvers and five thirty eight like to go to and
push who were way off over their averages havingim way down,
the truth is Trump is not off very much right now.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
The message is not resonating.
Speaker 7 (30:38):
I think they've been waiting Laura for a time period,
and they can say, Aha, he's falling apart, and they
could rush in with these legacy media polls, but you
haven't seen them because it's not happening. Clinta paxaid he's
down twelve. Look, they've missed the race last.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Time by a mile.
Speaker 7 (30:53):
So if we listen to who really got the race
right and knows how to poll Trump, this is.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
Not a big deal.
Speaker 7 (30:58):
The American people are more understand standing of what Trump
is doing than the Wall Street pundits.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
And I you know, we did our polls of plenty
today and what was interesting about the Republican Party is
the mega shift. First in the US Survey USA poll,
twelve percent of Republicans said they want the GOP to
move towards the middle, twelve percent, compared to forty percent
(31:23):
that said the party needs to go even further to
the right. A party that already is far right and
controls the White House and the majorities in the House
and Senate, and they say more conservative now the Democrats
say we need to go more progressive. They're completely out
of step with the American people on wokeness, on border,
(31:45):
on law and order, on economy, and fifty percent of
their party things they should go more left. When you
go inside the the NBC poll, and remember it's NBC,
what do you find More than seventy percent of Republican
surveyed for the poll March said they consider themselves to
be a part of the MAGA movement. Donald Trump is
not Hitler, He's not the devil, and those that follow
(32:08):
him are not crazy, fringe, insurrectionists or deplorable. There's seventy
percent majority of one of the two parties that controlled
this country. That's narrative versus reality for you. I gotta
put my glasses on for Brett, seems to be. Brett
(32:28):
Hume had a comment about the president and being victorious
at the border.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Gret, yeah, I think Brett.
Speaker 14 (32:35):
What's important here is that we've been talking about the
legalities of this, but the politics of this are pretty clear.
The administration is succeeding broadly. The southern border is as
a point, have been reduced to him in trickle trickle.
That's an unmistakable success of this administration done without any
of the legal the new laws that the Biden administrators
(32:57):
said it would have to have to do that, and
so I think it's also popular the public once the
illegal immigration stopped halted, and they're worried about the immigrants
who already, which.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
Seems to me would suggest all this nonsense over kill.
Mark Garcia, Well, the media keeps asking Tom questions of.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
The Elsalvadorian president or US president, of the American people.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Get it? Just another victory of the border for the Burnwarcher.
Sounds of the day for today.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
This is your morning show with Michael del Chruno.
Speaker 2 (33:28):
We're going to visit first on this tax date with
historian and author William Federer. This is one of my
favorite experts. I'm so glad to share them with you today.
You need to understand the history of taxation. It hasn't
always been and it certainly didn't look like this, and
your founding fathers would be shocked and you will be
fascinated the history of taxation.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
Next half hour.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
Also, where do we stand with the talks coming up
this weekend with Iran? And clearly after yesterday, where do
we stand with the peace talks between Iran and Russia?
Are things unraveling? And we'll visit with Lieutenant Colonel James
Carafano on both those big topics next hour as well,
so stick around.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show

Speaker 3 (00:28):
Starting your morning off right.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
A new way of talk, a new way of understanding,
because we're in this together.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
This is your Morning Show with Michael Dell Chorno.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Funny if you just said because well just because, because
I said so. Seven minutes after the hour, happy April fifteenth,
tax Day, President Trump says Irun cannot be allowed to
have a nuclear weapon. The federal government is freezing more
than two billion dollars in grants to HAVA, and at
eighty one years old, Rolling Stone frontman Mick Jagger is engaged.
(01:04):
Although that story is it unfolds. He's been with her
eleven years for a while, and they already have a child. Right,
He is eighty one and she's thirty seven, and apparently
they've been engaged for years.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
I do wonder we're not getting any talk packs on
that one.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
All right, You know there is something, There is something
about getting off the hamster wheel and stop playing the
consumption game and rolling up your sleeves.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
It's tough times.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Of course, if we all did this, we would definitely
be in a recession.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
But if you're tightening your belt these days, they knew.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Survey says that Americans are pinching pennies more and are
proud of it. Our national correspondent Roy O'Neil is here
to answer the first question. Are they pinching nickels or
pennies because I thought we got rid.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Of the penny?
Speaker 4 (01:54):
Well, right, maybe dimes because it's that serious these days
with one point two trillion dollars in credit card But
a new survey shows that more Americans think it's there's
no shame.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
In admitting to being frugal.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
About sixty one percent agree that it's less tacky these
days to be considered frugal than it was, say, a
decade ago.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Well, we saw the What was the first early sign
was the surge in consignment stores, not just for clothing
but for furniture that that kind of became cool.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
I think as a trend, coupons.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
I don't know if coupons, I mean, I I've just
not detailed enough to do them.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
I'm not above them. I would do them.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
But the newspaper anymore, well yeah, but you know you
get them in the mail and stuff coupon's coop. But
I would think I think a new trend could be cars.
So much of keeping up with the Jones is they're
so expensive, even used or expensive. Who cares point A,
point B, And I don't care what I'm driving. I
wonder if that's the next way.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
That could be, you know.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
And we are seeing a big surge in all those
vintage markets, right, which is essentially just a used clothing sale.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Right, they call it. Everything is vintage these days.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
But yeah, especially among younger people, it's just also just
a change of attitude. I think that the attitude about
frugality maybe changing more than the actual behaviors out there.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
But we're seeing that.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
I think the survey found that people who are Gen
X or baby boomers had said that they would rather
talk to their coworkers about their digestive issues rather than
talk to them about financial issues.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
That's the rule for the older set.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
And let me just put a message out to my coworkers,
I don't want to hear about your digestive issues.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Well, Rory, it's funny you would bring that up. I'm
coming off a twenty four hour fast and I've noticed
not boom.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Yeah, and then you know, we already know your digestive issues.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
You don't have to tell us, all right, So I
think this is a great story. I think it's cool
to be frugal. And I can tell you one thing.
And this is another one of those observations I have
because I'm raising them. There's something about this young generation
that I'm noticing is different. And it's not you know, impulsive,
(04:05):
frivolous purchases. I mean, I don't think this is just
my kids, because I'm noticing it with their friends too.
They'll work hard, which is different from previous charities. But
they'll work hard and they'll buy expense one expensive or
you know, in other words, if if I'm prioritizing earbuds
or sunglasses, I'm getting the best there is, so they
(04:25):
buy lesser, but when they buy, they buy quality. I
wonder if that, you know, would still fall under frugal
because it's going to change consumption patterns.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
I think, well, then you look at those knuckleheads out
at Coachella and say, oh, they're a lost generation.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
And they felt the earth moved. Royandeo will be back
in the third hour with more. I should peek at
what you're going to be back with. I usually do
that pretty regularly. Limit survey for next year. Yes, that's
an important one. We're gonna be back in the third
hour with that.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
All right.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
One of our featured stories today, and again you know,
we talk about David Sanadi and.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
I split hairs with this.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
I think I'm correct in saying journalism has died and
the influence of my generation where you picked up a
newspaper and well, if it's in the newspaper, it must be,
or if you're watching sixty minutes or the nightly news,
it must be. Toto's pulled the curtain. Everybody's seen the
(05:27):
Wizard of Bias for what it is. And I point
to twenty sixteen when Donald Trump ran against Hillary Clinton.
That's when they just took the gloves off, and they
didn't even care if you saw. They pulled out all
the stops to control the narrative, to silence any opposing views,
and they just let their bias out for all to
be seen.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Some of their.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Networks even went all in on Obama before that, and
somewhere along the line, and Donald Trump played a role
in this, and the mag of movement played a role
in this. Journalism's dead, it has the technology played a
role too, don't get me wrong. But it has no influence,
it has no revenue. It's just dead. But it still
(06:11):
exists and it's still out there and we allow it in.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
So you get this kind.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Of what I call the death of journalism aftermath.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
So there's a.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Story brewing, and if you didn't take the time to
go find out the truth, it's just sitting there and
you might be hearing it from co workers. You may
see it from some of your leftist friends postings on Facebook.
I don't know, and you might be thinking to yourself,
what's going on with this guy who apparently got accidentally
caught up in the whole deportation net and isn't Al
(06:47):
Salvador and doesn't deserve to be there, and why won't
Donald Trump bring him back? I mean, why is he
hanging onto this card? If you got somebody by accident
return them. Of course that's not the story, that's the narrative.
And the mainstream media won't let go. They even have
the you know, what's bigger than a giraffe to walk
in the Oval office where Donald Trump's not just sitting
(07:08):
there with the you know, by himself, He's.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Sitting with the L.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Salvadorian President, and then he's got his secretary of State,
he's got his attorney general, and you got the nerve
to ask the question, and bus chops over like what
are you doing? Why won't you bring this guy back? Yeah,
(07:33):
it's death of journalism. Yeah, it's priceless. A mainstream media
that couldn't wait to ask the question, not only did
Donald Trump our president, but to the L Salvadorian president
regarding the returning of kill Mark Garcia. And of course
what they got to their narrative ridiculous question was a
(07:55):
reality surprise answer. No, I'm not releasing him. I mean
it was just a priceless moment.
Speaker 5 (08:04):
Listen, Yeah, but I'm not releasing I mean, we're not
very fond of releasing to.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
I'm not very fond of releasing terrorists into my country.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
What are you asking now?
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Donald Trump's going to chime in here in a second,
but I just wanted to interject this. And I don't
like when this happens. When you have reasonable people say
reasonable things, not heroic. Reasonable people saying reasonable things in
a time where only a few are intellectually or reality challenge,
(08:40):
we tend to make them heroes, just like we like
to celebrate victimhood. Something really preventable and dumb happens. An
illegal immigrant kills somebody or goes on a driving spree
mowing people over, and then our answer is not to
do what Donald Trump's doing, secure the border, realize all
(09:03):
man is not inherently good. Some hate us for religious reasons,
for political reasons, for illegal reasons, gang members, You protect
your citizens. You're New Orleans strong when you put the
barricades up before New Year's not after.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
So I hate when we do that.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
But having said that, and may I say, having said
that is one of the biggest butts you'll ever see.
It's the kind of butt you see on a plane
and go that guy's not sitting next to me, is
he ill have no room. This is a big Having
said that, butt.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
I'd make a hero out of this guy. Am I
the only one that just loved the l Salvadorian president.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
He's like Donald Trump's mini me.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
It's not jd. Vance, it's the El Salvadorian President. All right.
Let me go back to the answer. So somebody in
our Death of Journalism media asked the El Salvadorian President
are you going to release kill mar Garcia, an MS
thirteen gang member and terrorist? And here's the answer.
Speaker 5 (10:10):
Yeah, but I'm not releasing I mean, we're not very
fond of releasing terrorists into our confy. We just turned
the murder capital of the world to the safest country
in the Western Hemisphere, and want us to go back
into the releasing criminals so they can.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Go back to being the murder capital of the world.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
That's not going to be well, they'd love.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
To have a criminal you know, reaction. I mean, I
mean there's a fascould love it.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Yeah, sick piece of sick people.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Oh I'm light headed.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
I mean, that's a Friday with forty seven moment, right,
This guy that we just went from the murder capital
to one of the safest cities in the Western hemisphere.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
You want me to go back. No, I'm not releasing
this criminal.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
They can't even it's like, you know, I don't know.
It's like trying to communicate with a zoo animal. I
guess with the mains. But that's the dead death of journalist.
That's the mainstream media. Let me just recap for everyone
if you don't know the story. All right, So, A,
he is a gang member. That's proven. B he was
(11:11):
in the country illegally. C he was sent back to
his home country of origin, Al Salvador. You're sitting in
the Oval office with the President of the United States
and the president of Al Salvador, and you got the
gall to ask a question, You're not going to release
this this terrorist. So then you have the president saying, no,
I'm not releasing them. I just made my country safe.
(11:33):
I'm not going back to that. But i'm the practice
of releasing terrorists, Like who are these people? Then you
got our presidents saying, oh, they're sick, they would they
would release them. And what is narrative meeting here reality?
This is an innocent guy that accidentally got deported and
we won't admit it. And bring him back, and it's
not a Supreme Court decision that needs to be made.
It's not our jurisdiction, which is what Marco Rubio chimed
(11:55):
in with, what Pambondi chimed in with. There's no question
he was a gang member, there's no question he was
in the country illegally. Therefore, with our ruling of terrorism,
he was removed. He is now in the possession of
a sovereign nation and it's their right to do with him.
So it's not our call. But the media will not
(12:16):
let go of this false narrative, and it might be
playing on CNN, it might be playing in the Washington
Post or The Atlantic or Axios or wherever, and in
that form of the matrix, they probably really believe that
this is some poor innocent guy, probably on his way
to work, living the American dream, not getting due process,
(12:38):
and this is stubborn Donald Trump, a dictator, a tyrone hitler,
won't bring him back.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
It's not our it's not a person for us to
bring back, and.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
It's certainly not a terrorist that the Salvadorian government and
its president are wanting to send back. Stay in prison.
We don't release people into the streets. We're in the
business of being safe now. So bottom line, you bought
a narrative. Second bottom line, this president isn't going to
(13:10):
release him. Third bottom line is will the mainstream media
release this narrative?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Not yet is the answer.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chorno.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Well, if you're just waking up.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
President Trump says he knows the top three people behind
the ongoing Russian Ukraine War.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Mark Mayfield explains, speaking from the Oval.
Speaker 6 (13:32):
Office Monday, Trump stand in order, Russian President Putin, former
President Biden, and Ukraine President Zelensky are culpable.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
The mistake was letting the war happen. If Biden were competent,
and if Zelensky were competent, and I don't know that
he is.
Speaker 7 (13:48):
We had a rough session with this guy out of
the year, if he just kept.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Asking for more and more.
Speaker 6 (13:53):
Trump was referring to the heated meeting at the White
House with Zelenski. The President said Biden should have stopped
the war, Zelensky should allotted to continue, and Putin should
not have started it.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Trump added, he's doing his best to end it with
a peace plan. Mark Nearfield.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
White House correspondent John Decker was there, He'll have more
in less than ten minutes. Mark Zuckerberg took the stand
yesterday as a major antitrust trial involving Facebook parent company
Meta got underway in our nation's capital. The Federal Trade
Commission accuses the social media giant of creating a monopoly
by buying up rivals Instagram and WhatsApp. Iras Spencer has
(14:27):
Speaker 8 (14:28):
The trial, which is expected to last about two months,
could ultimately lead to Meta being.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Forced to sell off those assets.
Speaker 8 (14:36):
However, Meta's attorneys pointed to development such as the rise
of TikTok to show that competition has been alive and well.
After the opening statements, the FTC then called Meta CEO
Mark Zuckerberg to the stand as its first witness. The
trial is also expected to feature other high profile witnesses,
including Meta's former chief operating officer Cheryl Sandberg, and Instagram
(15:00):
Adam Musseeri Iris Fitzer San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
Now, the only three of those products that I'm even
on is Facebook. And when I say on, I mean
I post things there. But I you know, I just
call balls and strikes.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
I'm not a fan of Mark Zuckerberg or his political
leanings or his political meddling in certain state issues. But
I don't get this one at all. I mean, if
you're going to start busting people up, Hey, what about Google?
What about Disney? What about Comcast? A former NC DOUBA
Woman of the Year, is among the six people killed
in a plane crash in New York State on Saturday

Speaker 1 (16:05):
President Trump honored the Buckeyes at the White House, but.
Speaker 6 (16:07):
Today is my great honor to welcome the twenty twenty
four college football national champions at the Ohio State University.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
And the Vice president, an Ohio State graduate told the
team this.
Speaker 10 (16:21):
I asked the President on January the twenty. They said, Sir,
would you mind if I skipped that final inaugural ball
to go to the Ohio State National Championship game? And
the President said no, but we'll have him at the
White House.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
So here we are.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
And then he went on to break the trophy, which
he said he didn't want anyone else to win it,
so he decided to break it.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
It was quite a day for the Buckeyes at the
White House. That's your top five stories of the day.
Speaker 11 (16:45):
This is Debo Morris from our little town of Franklin, Tennessee.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
My morning show is your Morning Show with Michael DELTROYA.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Hi, I'm Michael.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I'd love to have you listen to your morning show
live every day. We're hurt on great stations like News
Talk five point fifty KFYI and Phoenix News Radio, eleven
ninety k EX in Portland and ten ninety The Patriot
in c app Make us a part of your morning routine.
We'd love to have you listen live, but in the meantime,
enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
It's tax Day.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
We're going to talk to William Federer next hour or
If you miss it, you'll catch it in the podcast.
He is a historian and an author the book Interesting
History of Income Text on this tax Day, I think
it'll blow your mind. And then we had a blow
your mind. Pulls a plenty on the matrix. It appears
as though it's going to widen before it snaps and breaks.
(17:38):
The Republican Party is now fifty percent to seventy percent
MAGA and handing even more in that direction. I think,
probably more accurately, it's a combination of the Reagan Revolution,
the Tea Party, and the Maga movement all combining. That's
the new Republican Party and it's here to stay in
a different form. As for the Democrats, they are out
of step with the American people, and the pivot needs
(18:00):
to be towards the American people, which I guess would
be politically towards the center. They plan to do just
the opposite. And I got an email real quick. I
want to get in from Roger. Good morning. I'm a
little troubled that I said something yesterday that seemed to
upset you a little.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Roger, you do not upset me.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Stop listening to your wife about your talkbacks and your emails.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
They're always welcome. I love you.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
I'm guessing I misunderstood why you left the Republican Party,
and I was thinking about making a similar decision.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Sometimes my words do not match my thoughts. Well they did,
they didn't.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Actually, I thought you were asking how you literally do it,
And it depends if you live in a state where
you register as a Republican or a Democrat, you would
need to switch to independent. Some would say, strategically, don't
do that, because then you don't have a say in
the primary. In my state, you don't register that way.
So I was answering you literally why I left. I
have nothing in common with Democrats. Their worldview is anathetical
(18:52):
to mind. Their policy views and platform is anathetical to mine,
so that's not an option. The Republican Party platform was
always good, but they rarely lived it. We didn't get
thirty six trillion dollars in debt just because of Democrats.
Republicans are just as bad, and I got sick of
them too, And I think both parties are a part
(19:13):
of the problem. So both don't own my blind trust. Therefore,
I am authentically an independent, though I would say I
caucus with Republicans, mostly as you could only imagine coming up.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Our sounds of the day. And you know, I said
this earlier.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
You know, there's a lot of tariff talk and tariff
war talk, but what about the wars? What's going on
in the Middle East? What is the future of the
Gaza is Hamas in check, What's the future of the
Ukrainian Russian war? This was as big as the border
for Donald Trump, and I think it still means a
lot to him. But yesterday we got a glimpse of
(19:52):
just how shaky things are. And our White House correspondent
John Decker was there for all of it. So Donald Trump,
basically missing Zelenski again and even more specifically about the
last visit, didn't have very many good things to say.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
About Vladimir Putin or Joe Biden either.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
What did you make of yesterday's framing of this peace
talk situation in Washington?
Speaker 11 (20:17):
There is a lot of frustration that President Trump feels
right now. The reason being is because that thirty day
ceasefire that the administration presented to both sides, it was
accepted by Ukraine a month and a half ago, it
is yet to be accepted by Russia and Russia shows
no effort at all in terms of trying to come
(20:41):
to some sort of an agreement to temporarily have peace
between Russia and Ukraine. We saw over the weekend this
civilian attack that killed dozens of individuals in Ukraine because
of Russian Michel missiles that were launched against civilian areas,
and that I think is very frustrating for the president.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
All Right, So probably the statement that sticks out in
my mind i'd like to get your response to when
the President says he had nothing good to say about
Joe Biden and kind of lames. He said this wouldn't
have happened if he had been president. We heard that
throughout the campaign, but he had some really negative things
to say about Zelensky. The one that didn't sit well
with me was you don't start wars against countries ten
(21:24):
times bigger than you and expect everyone else to.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
I don't that part. I don't know that. I get
you know, but I.
Speaker 11 (21:31):
Don't get it either. Well, Ukraine did not start this war.
I'm runched by Russia three years ago, so you know,
they're defending themselves. Ukraine is against a much larger country.
That is true, but a reminder our country defeated a
much larger country known as Great Britain, you know, almost
two hundred and fifty years ago, So it is possible
(21:54):
to defeat a larger country. We have proved that fact,
and I realized things are different right now, and this
is democracy versus an authoritarian government, and that's what's at stake,
and you know, that's what's at stake also for Europe.
But I think that what we see right now three
visits by Steve Whitcoff, who's he he's the special envoy
for the president, three visits to Russia and nothing has
(22:17):
come out of those three visits.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
That is frustrating.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Well, the President, you know, I understand, if you're trying
to be the peacemaker, you've got to be you know,
impartial and in the middle. You got to share the
blame with both sides. But I would I mean, for
me anyway, I would have no problem remembering who invaded
who and where our interests lie. That the President kind
of walked all over. I don't know if that's part
(22:41):
of the art of the deal, but it all appears
to be unraveling, is my view of it.
Speaker 11 (22:46):
What's yours, Well, I'd agree with you. You know, there is
a rumor, and I'm going to share that rumor with you,
you know, and I don't normally pass along rumors, but
this one, you know, is not hurtful in any way.
There's a rumor that when President Trump travels to Saldi
Arabia in the middle of next month, in mid May,
that during that visit to Riad, Saudi Arabia, he will
(23:07):
be meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. And there's, you know,
something that leads me to believe that could indeed be happening.
MBS is a person who's a good broker. He has
good relations with both Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. But
the problem is, though, Michael, it's very difficult to have
(23:30):
a meeting if ahead of time you don't have any
deliverables to come out of this meeting. And I think
that's the frustrating thing for the president. It's frustrating for
our Secretary of State Mark Rubio as well.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
Yeah, and everybody who played the narrative game with that too.
He met Mizielensky in the White House. He has yet
to meet in person with Putin, so that would be equal.
But you know, you would think a neutral site with
both parties might be the next step.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
But I guess we're not there yet. That's what yesterday.
Speaker 11 (23:57):
We're not there. We're not there yet both parties know.
That's why I think that a meeting in Saudi Arabia
with Putin and Trump president that makes sense in the
next step, you know. I mean, maybe the president can
use that good relationship is he describes it that he
has with Vladimir Putin to convince him, at the very
(24:19):
least Michael to agree to what Ukraine has already agreed to.
And that's that thirty day ceasefire. Well, everybody's focused on
the tariff talks. And if you were wondering how the
peace talks are going, the answer is not well.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
And John Decker was there not well till witness. Thanks
for joining us, John, I look forward to tomorrow. God
bless all right.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Forty three after the hour.
Speaker 7 (24:37):
Time for people who majored an online activism with a
minor and puberty block a little bit.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Any of you in the media clearly meant.
Speaker 11 (24:48):
The art of the deal. It's going to work out. Well.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
There's two things.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Every time Bezo puts a rocket in the air, I
get visions of doctor Evil.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
There's that.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
The other is everyday people, all wa and crew. I
get the themes. Then I think in terms of the people.
I mean, I'm not a big fan of Katy Perry,
but you know I am a fan of the courage.
It took to I couldn't do it. Would you, guys,
anybody you would get ride? You both would just to
get a chance at seeing it. I listen, I don't like.
(25:20):
My palms are sweating thinking about it. Just that's how real.
I do not like heights. I just don't know if
the heights are so high that it kind of negates.
In other words, like I'm a lot more uncomfortable on
a ledge than I am in an airplane, So maybe
this is like that. But there's no question even in orbit,
let alone deep space, it's a life changing experience, and
(25:41):
it certainly was for Katy Perry.
Speaker 12 (25:43):
It is the highest high, and it is surrender to
the unknown, trust, And this whole journey is not just
about going to space. It's the training, it's the team,
it's the whole thing. I couldn't recommend this experience more.
(26:04):
This is like up there with all the you know, different.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Tools that I've.
Speaker 12 (26:10):
Learned in my life from meditation to the Hoffmann process.
This is up there because what you're doing is you're
find you're like really finding the love for yourself because
you've got to trust in yourself.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
On this journey.
Speaker 12 (26:21):
And then you're feeling the love when you come down
for sure, and you're feeling that strength. So I feel
really connected to that strong, divine feminine right now.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
By the way, you're such a badass.
Speaker 8 (26:32):
I loved that the month of April, You're like, I'm
going to space and I'm launching my tour.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
It is that, I mean, you know, I mean, I
guess that's a leftist description of what it's like to
be in a devenly space and keep got out of it.
I don't know, but I would think, you know, that
would just be I don't know that I could do it.
I would do it for you, well, you'd be up
(26:56):
there with Gail bouncing around.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
I would do it, just not on that.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
And now we know how lip fillers will respond in space.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
They did really well.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
They did really well. All right, this was my favorite
sound of the day. All right, So we've kind of
did this in another segment, so I don't want to
kind of relitigate it.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
But in the case of.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Kill Mark Garcia, he is a gang member, I mean
Red and that we're talking off there, and Red made
a great point. So the Biden administration's justification for allowing
him into the country was that he was in danger
of rival gang violence in El Salvador. That's pretty much
acknowledging he's a gang member, all right, So we know
he's an MS thirteen gang member.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
We know he was in the country illegally.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
However, stupid the previous administration was to allow him to
be here. So wasn't some innocent guy that accidentally got
caught in the net and sent to El Salvador. And
now the president stubbornly won't bring him back. Now, this
is a gang member and a criminal, and he's now
in Al Salvador prison, and our media, sticking to a
narrative over reality, has the nerve to not just ask
(27:59):
our president, right in front of our president in the
oval office, the Al Salvadorian president, if he would release
this criminal. And of course his answer was no, yeah, but.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
I'm not releasing I mean, we're not very father releasing
to us in our country. We just turned the murdered
coupit of the world into the safius country the western hemisphere,
and he want us to go back into the releasing
criminals so they can go back to being the murdered
capital of the world.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
That's good, that's not going to be mapped. Well, they'd
love to have a criminal you know.
Speaker 5 (28:28):
I mean, I mean, there's there's the fasoul love it.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Yeah, shick piece of shick people.
Speaker 13 (28:35):
Yeah, I mean, Stephen Iland just I don't understand what
the confusion is. This individual is a citizen at all, savagor.
He was illegally in the United States and was returned
to his country. That's where you deport people back to
their country of origin, except for Venezuela. That wasn't refusing
to take people back of places like that. I can
tell you this, mister President. No, the foreign policy of
the United States is conducted by the President of the
(28:57):
United States, not by a court. And no court in
the United States has a right to conduct the foreign
policy of the United States.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Is that simple.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
And the story, I mean, look, I know about the
death of journalism that coined the phrase, but to stand
in the overlaw and it's so, I mean, the President's
sitting there the Secretary of State sitting there, the Vice
President sitting there, the Attorney General sitting there. Advisors are
all filled in the room, and you ask this ridiculous
(29:25):
narrative question of an El Salvadorian president and a United
States president, and they wonder why they have no influence
or trust from the American people. Pollsters, is Donald Trump
(29:46):
being hurt politically by all this terrative and economic turmoil? Well,
the bottom line answer is only if you believe the
polsters that have been wrong in all the elections. The
pollsters that have been writing every elections show no harm whatsoever,
which would suggest the American people get this issue better
(30:07):
than the media. Again, evidence number two that is dead.
Speaker 7 (30:13):
If you look at the polls that are out by
pollsters who did well in the twenty four and twenty elections,
President Trump has had a minor decrease in his approval rating, but.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Very minor, not significant.
Speaker 7 (30:25):
When you look at the pollsters that like the Nate
Silvers and five thirty eight like to go to and
push who were way off over their averages havingim way down,
the truth is Trump is not off very much right now.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
The message is not resonating.
Speaker 7 (30:38):
I think they've been waiting Laura for a time period,
and they can say, Aha, he's falling apart, and they
could rush in with these legacy media polls, but you
haven't seen them because it's not happening. Clinta paxaid he's
down twelve. Look, they've missed the race last.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Time by a mile.
Speaker 7 (30:53):
So if we listen to who really got the race
right and knows how to poll Trump, this is.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
Not a big deal.
Speaker 7 (30:58):
The American people are more understand standing of what Trump
is doing than the Wall Street pundits.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
And I you know, we did our polls of plenty
today and what was interesting about the Republican Party is
the mega shift. First in the US Survey USA poll,
twelve percent of Republicans said they want the GOP to
move towards the middle, twelve percent, compared to forty percent
(31:23):
that said the party needs to go even further to
the right. A party that already is far right and
controls the White House and the majorities in the House
and Senate, and they say more conservative now the Democrats
say we need to go more progressive. They're completely out
of step with the American people on wokeness, on border,
(31:45):
on law and order, on economy, and fifty percent of
their party things they should go more left. When you
go inside the the NBC poll, and remember it's NBC,
what do you find More than seventy percent of Republican
surveyed for the poll March said they consider themselves to
be a part of the MAGA movement. Donald Trump is
not Hitler, He's not the devil, and those that follow
(32:08):
him are not crazy, fringe, insurrectionists or deplorable. There's seventy
percent majority of one of the two parties that controlled
this country. That's narrative versus reality for you. I gotta
put my glasses on for Brett, seems to be. Brett
(32:28):
Hume had a comment about the president and being victorious
at the border.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Gret, yeah, I think Brett.
Speaker 14 (32:35):
What's important here is that we've been talking about the
legalities of this, but the politics of this are pretty clear.
The administration is succeeding broadly. The southern border is as
a point, have been reduced to him in trickle trickle.
That's an unmistakable success of this administration done without any
of the legal the new laws that the Biden administrators
(32:57):
said it would have to have to do that, and
so I think it's also popular the public once the
illegal immigration stopped halted, and they're worried about the immigrants
who already, which.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
Seems to me would suggest all this nonsense over kill.
Mark Garcia, Well, the media keeps asking Tom questions of.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
The Elsalvadorian president or US president, of the American people.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Get it? Just another victory of the border for the Burnwarcher.
Sounds of the day for today.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
This is your morning show with Michael del Chruno.
Speaker 2 (33:28):
We're going to visit first on this tax date with
historian and author William Federer. This is one of my
favorite experts. I'm so glad to share them with you today.
You need to understand the history of taxation. It hasn't
always been and it certainly didn't look like this, and
your founding fathers would be shocked and you will be
fascinated the history of taxation.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
Next half hour.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
Also, where do we stand with the talks coming up
this weekend with Iran? And clearly after yesterday, where do
we stand with the peace talks between Iran and Russia?
Are things unraveling? And we'll visit with Lieutenant Colonel James
Carafano on both those big topics next hour as well,
so stick around.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michael Nheld, Joano
