a new way of understanding, because we're in this stupid
This is your morning show with Michael.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Gill John Well.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
After a tillion dollar commitment in Saudi Arabia, the President
got a royal heroes welcome and a camel parade and
sword salute arrival at the Royal Court in Cutter. Welcome

twenty five on the Aaron streaming live on your iHeartRadio app.

and he is a senior contributor of Your Morning Show.
(01:19):
And David, there was a Joe Vigism theme to today's show,
which is you're insulting me and you're embarrassing yourself. And
it really falls on three hills. One, here are the
Democrats caught lying about Joe Biden's cognitive abilities, hiding his impairments,
(01:43):
now wanting to be heroes for revealing it, or as
Chuckie Schumer would do, just ignore that they lie to us.
You have Rob Manford waiting till the death of Pete
Rose to reinstate him, despicably issuing the statement. Obviously, a
man no longer with us cannot representive threat to the
game of baseball whose number one sponsor is gambling, I
(02:06):
mean bigger than a giraffe loser of the day. That's
very insulting to baseball fans. Oh, and Commissioner man for
you're embarrassing yourself. And then the Democrats in the height
of I mean the night of Donald Trump victories. Moving
(02:28):
forward with impeachment. There's a difference between being an opposition
party and being an obstructionist. To the American people, these
all fall under you're insulting us and you're embarrassing yourself.
And that's before we get to our main topic, which
is the top democratic strategist trying to figure out how
their one party state failure, the ultimate overswing, where to
(02:54):
go from here after that failure, I think they got
bigger problems, and that is whether or not they're even
going to be exist to.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Election cycles from now. What do you make of all that?
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Well, they made their bad and they're obviously not sleeping
well in it.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Michael, I can remember the first time I was talking
with William B.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Allen.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
We were actually on a master's class course, and he
put the word tribalism on the table and I wrote
the note down because I knew how dangerous that word was. Now,
it certainly helps that his credentials are unassailable, and he
happens to also be a black American, So when he
starts to talk about tribalism, people just sort of start
(03:33):
by listening right, And in essence, what he was discussing
was the political strategy of dividing people based upon a
false sense of incomplete identity, but a passionate sense of identity,
dividing them from one another, and then creating a political
party that's based upon enough polling data that you can
(03:56):
get one thing in the basket that that tribe will go,
and then assembling that universe of voters and winning a
national or a state based election in that fashion.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Let me interruptressying this. I would make the statement, you
can't divide your way to unity any more than you
can spend your way out of a spending problem or
divide your way out of a united problem. But their
strategy thought they could do it. I mean it was
by design. Let's divide everybody, let's pander a little bit
of this, a little bit of this, sprinkle it around
(04:28):
to where enough of them have nowhere else to go
but to us, and will dominate. Now we'll destroy the
Republic for which it stands, and the United people in
a United States, but will have power, will have control,
and that's never more. As we get into the strategy
of a one party state. Oh you don't like it, leave,
(04:48):
you know, I always say, well that worked in California,
and now California is destroyed, and it hasn't worked elsewhere,
And when you try to do it at a national level,
it reminds me of Barack Obama, who was a great
divider and tribalist and agitators as a community organizer. But
that doesn't work the minute you're the president of the
United States. It works in Chicago on the streets, but
(05:10):
when you're everyone's president, dividing everybody against each other, you
lost at the beginning. So which is it? I think
you know this is a narrative. This is a strategy
that died of reality, right, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
And of course it's it's temporarily shelved, but they'll certainly
rally it if they can find another way to go.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Now.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
It hurts when a tribalist strategy which then is designed
to make a basket big enough just to win and
by propagating false realities. First off, the problem with this
is it violates a fundamental principle of creation and that
humans are not designed to be alone. Well, and all
you do is divide, people ultimately end up alone and
(05:53):
very very lonely and small, small, small networks at best. Secondly,
it's against the very concept of our coming together. Thirteen
clocks all striking at the same time. The idea of
a group of people uniting in local and a national
government as one people, and that one people was formed
(06:14):
through the terrific trauma of the War for Independence and
the sacrifices that were made to disassociate with Great Britain
and become our own country. George Washington preached that doctrine
of unity, as did the framers of the Constitution. You
read the Federler's papers and their concern about creating enough
checks and balances that we would not be people that
would divide off into tribes or factions. And then Lincoln
(06:37):
quoting Jesus himself when he said that a house divided
against itself cannot stand. If your strategy is to divide
and conquer, you cannot ultimately hold power.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
David's an not your senior contributor joining us.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
I could take any one of these issues and we
could apply this formula today. One of our polls from
the Associated Press showed clearly you could compare whether it
was Republicans to Democrats, independence, you name it, how's the
president doing as being president, and you get somewhere consensus
wise at forty one percent approval oh, and your thoughts
(07:15):
on how he's handling a transgender issue fifty two percent
Boom and depending on Independence and Republicans, it's obviously much higher.
And basically two thirds agree your gender is look down
your sex at birth. So but this is one of
those divisions they created, but the American people didn't buy it,
(07:38):
and they don't end up getting power. And so I
think one of the fascinating things I've witnessed a lot
of things from the abandonment of God in my lifetime,
the abandonment of God and for what multiculturalism, political correctness,
spiritual plurality, all gods are the same, moral relativism, whatever
you think. But when it got down the road, what
was interesting was they went too far. And I don't
(08:00):
know what the one too far was. I think some
of it was you can't figure out what bathroom? And
then I think, no, no, no, it was when they
couldn't define a woman.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
You asked them what's a woman? They couldn't tell you.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
And then when you started seeing biological men and boxing
rings and swimming pools and volleyball courts and you know,
basketball courts competing against biological women, it just was all
one step too far. It was that ultimate overswing. So
I mean, when I'm setting up this is feeling like
a Sean Hannity segment. What I'm setting up is a
(08:32):
lot of this is based on that one party state strategy,
which is the ultimate overswing, and issue by issue, it's
an overswing too right.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Well sure, and that's what happened in California in the
early two thousands. These two political strategists who took over
the mindset of the California Democrat Party, John B. Judas
and Ruy Tahia, who are still around today, but they've
made some significant changes. Their theory worked in the early
two thousands. They basically said, there's enough Democrat and Democrats
(09:01):
in California to drive the Republicans into the sea. And
so they did, and they basically everything in California went Democrat,
every state wide office, everything except a handful of state
legislative offices for House reps and sentence and a handful
of congressional districts.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
And then basically the.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Democrat reality was get out if you don't like it,
and they did the party California and you know what
they did, The people did leave. Now they're stuck with
their own singular one party only, and they've driven out
all their opposition. Well, guess what, it gets pretty lonely
because now all the benefits have to go to the
people that you brought to the tribe, and the people
(09:42):
who were working and paying those bills have disappeared. Now,
what are you going to do? The California model is
a total failure.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
I hate to thase.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Guys are now having to admit it.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Yeah, but as they admit it, they don't know what's next.
They have no clue.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
No, So you know, we keep sitting here like, okay,
they have no leader that they're telling us, They have
no message that they're telling us. They're caught. Everyone will say,
in a very discrediting cover up of Joe Biden's condition,
(10:17):
there's something even worse. They're connecting the dots. Wait a minute.
You didn't let us pick Bernie and you forced Tillery
and loss. You didn't let us pick Bernie, and you
gave us Joe and one, and then you secured all
the electoral primary votes you needed, and then you exposed him,
and then you went to your candidate you wanted all along.
Who was the first one out In twenty twenty Kamala Harris,
(10:38):
you don't respect us as voters. This is within their
own party they are discredited. I mean, there's death of
journalism and there's the death of the Democrat Party. But
the joke of it all is they really don't we
keep waiting for what they have planned. I think I
know what they have planned. But what if their own
party constituents aren't there, what if they're grasped? Money isn't
(11:01):
there when they go to do whatever they're going to do.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
And I'm becoming thoroughly convinced they don't know what to do.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
You know, these two consultants we mentioned to, Harah and
Judas have written a book called Where Have All the
Democrats Gone?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Now?
Speaker 4 (11:17):
They're the ones that drove them into the sea, starting
where you went? Where they go? What there were they
always were?
Speaker 3 (11:23):
You left?
Speaker 4 (11:24):
And in this epic book that they write, it takes
them two hundred and seventy two pages to acknowledge the
fact that independence exist in this voting reality. So that's
the other part of this whole myth, Michael, is that
the entire nation is moving so far away from these
hyper partisan, Washington based, billionaire driven shadow parties that people
(11:46):
are just looking for answers so they can get on
with their lives because they're lonely and they're miserable, and
the political burdens that are placed upon them don't make
life any better.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
David sonati joining us.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
All right, So here's my point, and I think everybody
listening to the sound of my voice would agree with this.
The Democrat Party is dying. I said it would, one
or both parties would be gone by the end of
the decade. Nobody has a hard time seeing them. In fact,
Democrats themselves and these two top strategists would admit that
they don't see their role in it and that they
(12:17):
created it. But where is the Republican Party? It too,
may be gone already now.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
I call it. It is trump Ism or maga.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
I think it's the Reagan Revolution combined with the Tea
Party movement, combined with a big dope dose of trump Ism.
But it's not the Republican Party, and I don't know
that it has a future. You could say with great accuracy.
Control by the elite inside the Beltway is the real
rotting corpse. And this growing independence and this growing Americanism
(12:54):
is rising. I am more confident than I was five
years ago when I said it that these parties, the
two parties system is over, and it was a perfect storm,
a perfect storm of them overswinging, taking a step too far,
and the perfect storm of the arrival of Donald Trump.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
And it's blown up in their face beautifully.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
Well, when we come back, I've got a quote from
this book I've been waiting to share with you. It's
going to flip you out.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Oh well, I want to be flipped.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
It's your morning show with Michael del Journo.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
I love when we go into a break and Read
and David have conversations that should happen on the air.
The long and the short of it is, I use
the expression the ultimate overswing the Democrats. Maybe the better
analogy is what happens when the dog catches the car
gets run over. That's really what happened. And David brought
up something really profound. The key moment was the minute
(13:49):
they got gay marriage. Now you caught the car. Had
they stopped there, now go have a nice day, that
would have been fine. Red made some great points about
how the gay in LGBTQ don't relate to the t
and so you can't unite these factions. But but the
bottom line is, you know, you lose God, you lose man.
(14:10):
And so you know that in all of this, David
uh Justice Scalia had it nailed. I mean he saw
this coming because this is, you know, the obvious conclusion.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
And then you want to flip us the quote from
the DEM's book.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
But but on that notion, that's really what happened, right,
I mean that and not and not keeping kids out.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
Of it exactly right, and and and and turning it
into the schools into a cultural mandate. Yes, they went.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
To queens and kindergartens is sick.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
Now everyone can see it and can see where it
inevitably goes, and people don't want to go over that
bridge or go over that cliff. So Michael and into
Harri's book Where have all the Democrats Gone? Introduction page one.
They go to a blue collar town east of Baltimore
and interview a labor leader and they ask him why
some white workers have left the Democrat Party and turned
(15:02):
to Trump and Republicans. The answer is, the guy says, quote,
I mean a lot of it is am radio. He
said it out loud. Yeah, In other words, where there's
still real conversations going on all for things that matter,
and people are able to tell the truth. The whole
(15:25):
mythology of the progressive world discipline, it just evaporates.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Well it's not real, you know.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
I will say two things I used to say, the
talk Rady was the last bastion of truth, and truth
is alive. Truth is an entity, and it is a
powerful thing. I don't possess it. I can speak it,
I can acknowledge it, but I don't put that in
the truth. The truth will have its stay on its own,
and radio played a very key role for many, many decades.
(15:55):
I think the final straw was when social media technocracy
and podcas casting really finished the deal. That's when the many,
not just the few that many listened to, but the
many got to speak and it all came to them.
And we come back going back to the Joe vigism
of your insulting us and you're embarrassing yourself. The Democrats
(16:17):
wanting to be hailed now for revealing what they were
covering up.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
I sing, some folk are Wisconsin.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
In My Morning Show with Your Morning Show with Michael
de zina.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
Hi, It's Michael.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Your Morning Show airs live five to eight am Central,
six to nine Eastern and great cities like Memphis, Tennessee,
tell Usa, Oklahoma, Sacramento, California. We'd love to be a
part of your morning routine, but we're happier here now.
Enjoy the podcast on the air and streaming live on
your iHeartRadio app. Were honored to serve you well the president.
He was honored with a parade of camels and swords
(16:57):
at the Royal Court and cutter after a very successful
visit in Saudi Arabia with a commitment of a trillion
dollar investment from the Saudis in the US. And is
this all end in Turkey? With Ukraine Russian war talk
time will tell and the late Pete Rose now eligible
for Major League Baseball's Hall of Fame.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
I think what.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Is so obvious in this decision is the announcement made
after Pete Rose's death. This is something really bad that's
now feeling even worse. Nobody loves the game of baseball more,
and nobody is more unforgiving, and I refuse to and
they're not asking for it.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Will I ever forgive major League Baseball?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
But when Rob Manfred, the Commissioner, released the statement, obviously
a man no longer with us cannot represent a threat
to the game. Now you're proudly stating you waited till
he would die, as if Pete rose for the last
(18:05):
two decades that he was seeking this was any threat
to the game of baseball. This is despicable. And this
from Major League Baseball, whose number one sponsor is gambling.
You're watching baseball as they're promoting you gambling on the games,
(18:26):
as they banned this man and waited till he was dead.
I will never forgive baseball. I love Cooperstown. It was
one of my greatest visits with my son. I'll never
go back to the Baseball Hall of Fame, and you're lucky.
I love the game more than I hate you, and
I'll even bother to watch it. This is one of
the most I mean, loser of the day Commissioner Manfred
quote of the day, loser of the decade, losing situation.
(18:50):
Baseball's handled this so poorly and it ends at its worst. David,
your thoughts, well, it's.
Speaker 4 (18:55):
Another one of those viral infections that once it gets
started you can't stop bit because it's it preys upon
human weakness. I mean, I'm watching Kevin Hart do ads
for the NBA gambling industry literally encouraging people about the
excitement of prop bets. That's the most addictive reality. That's
(19:17):
like the crack cocaine of sports wagering when you're sitting
there betting in the half seconds on whether the ball
is going to be shot from the three point layup
or a dunk. All right, this is this is disastrous.
Look at the story from the NFL and super Fan
The chiefs a wolf character who's now going to jail
for thirty two years, and we're finally admitting out loud
(19:37):
he's robbing banks because he's an addicted gambler. I mean,
these things are nuts, and professional sports in America is
lost to them. It's just a matter of time before
we wake up one day and realize that the whole
thing's a show.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
They thought the gambling industry, they thought they had a
problem with Shoeless Joe, which, if anybody researches it, this
may be a really falsely accused individual for Pete Rose
did it. Tried to deny it too long. I mean,
they could have punished him. They didn't need to make
this a life band and you need to spitefully wait
for him to die. That's all despicable, but they thought
(20:13):
they had a problem with shoeless Joe and Pete. Now
every league has a problem, every game, every event. We
talked about this, and I don't want to, you know,
delight and speak ill of anybody, but somebody I thought
very hard to get elected and was very disappointed once
elected a governor made the statement that, you know, well,
at least I protected us from casino gaming.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
And I was like, you, well, I just edited myself.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
They don't want I would have said it next Red's laughing.
I would. It would have been a pop right out
of my mouth.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Well, I'm trying to be a more resurrected person, but yeah,
I was reading the more n I mean, guys should
do like Senator Kenny. I'm not saying you're the dumbest
person on earth, but you better hope the dumbest don't die.
But you know, like they want casinos anymore. Yeah, they
want to pay dealers, they want to pay maids, they
(21:07):
want to pay chefs, they want to have buffets in hotel.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
They don't want any of that. You just gave theopets.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Yeah, you just gave them twenty four hours, seven days
a week, three hundred and sixty five days a year
an ability.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
Now a guy. First of all, X number of people.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Become problem gamblers, just have gamblers scientifically, they just what
is a problem gambler? They're going to lose all their
money and then stop, all right. So you got husbands
sitting right next to their wives on the couch, maxing
out credit cards, doing losing everything right as they're sitting
(21:47):
on the couch next to their wife.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
That's a problem gambler.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
This mascot, that's what you call a pathological gambler. An
X number of people become that and what does that do?
Speaker 3 (22:03):
It loses all their money and then it steals.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
I was going to write a book called Busted until
my life was threatened and then I decided not to
write the book or even stay in that city. But
one of the stories was going to be an African American,
beautiful young lady who was pre met. Her dad was
a doctor, she was going to be a doctor. Her
gambling addiction led to obviously failing out of college, but
(22:29):
stealing a lot of the money that was given to her,
even selling the car that was given to her. I mean,
it was just a disaster. Another guy was married with
two small children, had a very good job in food distribution,
making six high six figures. This guy became a pathological gambler.
Next thing you know, he lost all his money. He
(22:52):
went on to cash company checks. He went to prison
where he got raped and beaten, lost his wife and children.
Nobody wants to tell you those stories, but they're there
every single day.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
But you want to get me wild.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
You have a commissioner of baseball who's number one advertising
and number one off field agenda is gaming.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
And you waited till this.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Guy died, and you're saying he's obviously no longer. You're
a threat to the game of baseball. So as the
commissioner of the NFL and the NBA and the NHL,
that are all turning a blind eye to this.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
And I get so wild, David.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
If they are going to mean it would be turning
over tables.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
We're on the ground now where where real people live.
Let's come back up one more time to the thirty
thousand foot level and go back to what we were
talking about earlier. The problem with all of this, whether
it's the idea of a single party that drives opponents
into the sea, or lying and hiding about Joe Biden. Look,
it doesn't matter what we're talking about Democrats, Republicans, politicians, industries.
(24:00):
The bottom line with the progressive mindset is that it
has no ability to appropriate the reality of human failing
and evil. When you do x, Y happens always because
people fall down. And if you pass laws and you
open opportunities that are mindless, utopian notions covered up in
(24:22):
false advertising, the other stuff's going to come out the
other end man, and it's not going to be pretty.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
And even if you're not a problem gambler, even if
you're not, you know the kind that will go on
to further crimes.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
And you're doing what when you could be doing what?
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Oh, now there's a that's everyone right, And you're following
these games and you're researching bats and then you're making
new bats and added bats, and now you're watching all
this instead of what is a husband? What is a father?
What is an employee?
Speaker 4 (25:02):
That person says to me, Michael, I've got I've got
plenty of money. This is gonna get a good idea.
Here's here's a really good thought to know that you're
not addicted. Take that money for the next twelve months
and give it to a necessary charity, to help mothers
in need, to help orphans, to help people get adopted
as kids. Give the money away and then you'll know
if you're free.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Well, I'll do you one better. I can think of
a personal anecdotal. I'll never reveal who, but this was
somebody I looked at. Oh, you're not an alcoholic. Okay,
let's not drink for a month. And if you can
go a month without drinking, then then you're right. Now
I'm wrong, you're not an alcoholic. That person obviously didn't
stop drinking for a month and obviously never spoke to
(25:42):
me again. But all right, so but we all know
how that works out. Bottom line is they're insulting us,
they're embarrassing themselves. That's a theme for the day. Final
say on all of the Democrat cover ups. I mean,
I just love how like Jake tap It's a great example.
I mean here he is wanting to be the jolly
goodfellow for revealing everything with Joe Biden as he was
(26:07):
covering it. I mean, in other words, fellow, well, I mean,
if you if you want to play it like Chuckie Schumer,
just say I'm moving on.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
Okay, Well, that's obvious.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Sorry, you're just throwing yourself right under the bus and there,
and the voters are going to move on, probably.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
With AOC if she's not president.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
But for the Jake Tappers and the others writing this book, obviously,
if you knew this, and you.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Can prove this, you were a part of the cover up.
I mean, there is no jolly goodfellow here, right.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
No, there isn't, Michael. And this is where we watched
the tap dance of the political few and you and here,
and so basically, what Schumer has the power to say
is when I say it's over, it's over. I say
it's over. So now we move on. Now I can
understand by a person saying, yes we were wrong, Yes
we covered up, Yes he was impaired, Yes it was
(26:57):
a disaster. Now we got to pick up the pieces
and go forward. But no, it's just now we.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Doesn't that doesn't that remind you of when when Barack
Obama would just say, you know, I never forget what
I used to play the thunder Remember the thunderclap. I
used to play it a sillier time in my life.
You know, just eat up. You know, we just all
supposed to ignore it. Well, the American people haven't ignored it,
and they're rejecting it. And I think it's dead and
I don't think there's any bringing it back to life
(27:22):
so far. They certainly don't know what their next move is.
Great visit and overtime, David, appreciate it. We'll talk very
mcsoon and don't forget the Public Square on demand any
time at the Public Square dot com. Heard on two
hundred stations nationwide, and David will talk to you next
week or sooner. The conditions warned, she's going to get smoked.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
He's got too stopped.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
That, ladies and gentlemen, is a rare Michael del Jorno mistake.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
We already did sounds the day time for your top
five stories the day.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
The annual inflation rate dropped to two point three percent
in April, lower than expected and lower since February of
twenty twenty one.
Speaker 5 (28:00):
Markets had expected the consumer Price Index to increase to
two point four percent. That's a broad measure of the
cost of goods and services, excluding food and energy. The
CPI was up two point eight percent year over year,
according to numbers on Tuesday from the Labor Department.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
I'm Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
Late Pete Rose is being reinstated by Major League Baseball.
Marbran shook us All Morning Long reports.
Speaker 6 (28:21):
The Cincinnati Reds great and shoeless Joe Jackson are both
being removed from MLB's banned list. MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred
stated the punishment for banned individuals ends upon their deaths.
Their removal from the list opens the door for both
to enter the Baseball Hall of Fame posthumously. Rose was
banned for betting on baseball while manager of the Reds,
(28:44):
while Jackson was banned for his role in the nineteen
twenty one Black Sox scandal.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
I'm Brian Shuck.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Diddy's ex girlfriend the prosecution star witness. We'll take the
stand again today after yesterday breaking down in tears describing
the abuse and violence she suffered at the hands of
Sean Ditty Combs.
Speaker 7 (29:03):
Singer Cassie Ventura said did he force her to stay
awake for days to perform disgusting, drug fueled sex acts
with other men that he called freak offs. The heavily
pregnant thirty eight year old also testified Combs beat her
multiple times, saying he'd knocked me over drag me, kick me,
stomp me in the head during their tenure relationship, which
(29:23):
began when she was nineteen and the rap star was
thirty seven. Prosecutor say Combs used his fame and power
to sexually abuse women from two thousand and four to
twenty twenty four. He's pleaded not guilty to all charges,
including sex trafficking and racketeering. I'm Sarah Lee Kessler.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
The Jilli's question is everyone has their day. If you
ever noticed how every day has so many days? What
do I mean?
Speaker 3 (29:47):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (29:47):
International Mathematics Day today, National Decency Day today, Buttermilk Biscuit
Day today.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
All good, but they won't make you dance.
Speaker 8 (30:00):
Today is National Dance Like a Chicken Day, celebrating this
silly song that's popular at weddings and october Fest that
I'll have you doing the Chicken Dance even if you
can't dance. Written in the fifties, the seventies made it popular,
but the song was actually created to get you to drink,
not dance. But if you're dancing to it, you're probably drinking.
So mission accomplished. I'm Bree Tennis.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Oh I love you, Bree.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
This is your Morning Show with Michael del Trono.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
Give me a little big John.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
He's got a little summary on our show today. So
let me get this straight.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
No, zam booker, my espresso, stop handicapping horses, and do
not bet the Nicks. Got it?
Speaker 1 (30:42):
No, all the more Zambuca and I really do like
the next although wait till they get to the Pacers.
I think the Pacers are going to be in the
finals against the Oka some Oklahoma state city thunder is
my still my prediction. All right, annual information an annual
inflation rate dropped to two point three percent sent in April,
lower than expected. Marco Ruby with the President and Cutter
(31:04):
and what a royal welcome? I mean, parade of camels.
I don't know what that was, sord aerobics. I mean
that was quite the welcome the president got at the
Royal court and Cutter. Marco will be heading to Turkey
for peace talks with Ukraine and Russia. The question is
will Vladimir Putin be heading for peace talks with Ukraine
(31:27):
and Russia. And despite all of the money concerns and
uncertainties that we've been experiencing, Americans are planning to take
road trips this summer. Let's take a look at where
most people are planning to go when the kids get
out of school. Rory has the story. Rory O'Neil, our
national correspondent, Good morning.
Speaker 9 (31:47):
Yeah, Michael, you know we've got word from Triple A
that next week Yeah, next weekend is Memorial Weekend, forty
five point one million Americans will be traveling. That breaks
a twenty year old record. So we're out there. The
wallet help list out today shows that the number one
destination is going to be the Orlando area for.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
By the way, don't forget Rory's got a an Army
cot if you want to stay with him.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
Yeah, no thanks.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Why are you coming here in the summer? Is just insane?
Speaker 4 (32:19):
But all right?
Speaker 9 (32:20):
Atlanta number two, Washington, DC number three, Honolulu number four.
Speaker 4 (32:25):
Now we're cooking.
Speaker 9 (32:26):
Austin, Texas comes in number five on the list. Where
did I see Nashville? Nashville was coming in there number
thirty six out of a one hundred. Actually was Knoxville
that did quite will coming in number eleven on.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
The Gatlinburg and Pitch and Forge in Knoxville.
Speaker 9 (32:47):
The may they have Nashville, Davidson, Murphysboro, and Franklin listed together.
And Knoxville is a separate thing. And Chattanooga comes in
at number fifty three. There's a lot of Tennessee. I'm
surprised at Atlanta being so high. Washington d C is affordability, accessibility,
(33:08):
cheap flights to Atlanta one of the reasons they factored.
And how easy it is to get to these places
is part of the ranking. You know, how much the
availability of restaurants, spas, water parks. The list goes on
and on, and the weather also gets ranked in there.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
Yeah, and for me, boy, Gatlinburg Pigeon Porge is always
a wonderful Memorial Day three day weekend.
Speaker 3 (33:33):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
I think you know, Orlando Slash Universal would be high
on the list. Anywhere there's a golf course, But the
American people are going to be traveling, They're going to
be resting and enjoying the three day weekend. Roy appreciate
the stories today. We'll talk again tomorrow. That'll do it.
Speaker 3 (33:50):
We're all in this together.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
This is your morning show with Michaelton, Hill, Joe and

After a tillion dollar commitment in Saudi Arabia, the President
got a royal heroes welcome and a camel parade and
sword salute arrival at the Royal Court in Cutter. Welcome

twenty five on the Aaron streaming live on your iHeartRadio app.

at iHeartMedia dot com. David Zanati is the CEO of
the American Policy Roundtable and host of the Public Square,
and he is a senior contributor of Your Morning Show.
(01:19):
And David, there was a Joe Vigism theme to today's show,
which is you're insulting me and you're embarrassing yourself. And
it really falls on three hills. One, here are the
Democrats caught lying about Joe Biden's cognitive abilities, hiding his impairments,
(01:43):
now wanting to be heroes for revealing it, or as
Chuckie Schumer would do, just ignore that they lie to us.
You have Rob Manford waiting till the death of Pete
Rose to reinstate him, despicably issuing the statement. Obviously, a
man no longer with us cannot representive threat to the
game of baseball whose number one sponsor is gambling, I
(02:06):
mean bigger than a giraffe loser of the day. That's
very insulting to baseball fans. Oh, and Commissioner man for
you're embarrassing yourself. And then the Democrats in the height
of I mean the night of Donald Trump victories. Moving
(02:28):
forward with impeachment. There's a difference between being an opposition
party and being an obstructionist. To the American people, these
all fall under you're insulting us and you're embarrassing yourself.
And that's before we get to our main topic, which
is the top democratic strategist trying to figure out how
their one party state failure, the ultimate overswing, where to
(02:54):
go from here after that failure, I think they got
bigger problems, and that is whether or not they're even
going to be exist to.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Election cycles from now. What do you make of all that?
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Well, they made their bad and they're obviously not sleeping
well in it.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Michael, I can remember the first time I was talking
with William B.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Allen.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
We were actually on a master's class course, and he
put the word tribalism on the table and I wrote
the note down because I knew how dangerous that word was. Now,
it certainly helps that his credentials are unassailable, and he
happens to also be a black American, So when he
starts to talk about tribalism, people just sort of start
(03:33):
by listening right, And in essence, what he was discussing
was the political strategy of dividing people based upon a
false sense of incomplete identity, but a passionate sense of identity,
dividing them from one another, and then creating a political
party that's based upon enough polling data that you can
(03:56):
get one thing in the basket that that tribe will go,
and then assembling that universe of voters and winning a
national or a state based election in that fashion.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Let me interruptressying this. I would make the statement, you
can't divide your way to unity any more than you
can spend your way out of a spending problem or
divide your way out of a united problem. But their
strategy thought they could do it. I mean it was
by design. Let's divide everybody, let's pander a little bit
of this, a little bit of this, sprinkle it around
(04:28):
to where enough of them have nowhere else to go
but to us, and will dominate. Now we'll destroy the
Republic for which it stands, and the United people in
a United States, but will have power, will have control,
and that's never more. As we get into the strategy
of a one party state. Oh you don't like it, leave,
(04:48):
you know, I always say, well that worked in California,
and now California is destroyed, and it hasn't worked elsewhere,
And when you try to do it at a national level,
it reminds me of Barack Obama, who was a great
divider and tribalist and agitators as a community organizer. But
that doesn't work the minute you're the president of the
United States. It works in Chicago on the streets, but
(05:10):
when you're everyone's president, dividing everybody against each other, you
lost at the beginning. So which is it? I think
you know this is a narrative. This is a strategy
that died of reality, right, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
And of course it's it's temporarily shelved, but they'll certainly
rally it if they can find another way to go.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Now.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
It hurts when a tribalist strategy which then is designed
to make a basket big enough just to win and
by propagating false realities. First off, the problem with this
is it violates a fundamental principle of creation and that
humans are not designed to be alone. Well, and all
you do is divide, people ultimately end up alone and
(05:53):
very very lonely and small, small, small networks at best. Secondly,
it's against the very concept of our coming together. Thirteen
clocks all striking at the same time. The idea of
a group of people uniting in local and a national
government as one people, and that one people was formed
(06:14):
through the terrific trauma of the War for Independence and
the sacrifices that were made to disassociate with Great Britain
and become our own country. George Washington preached that doctrine
of unity, as did the framers of the Constitution. You
read the Federler's papers and their concern about creating enough
checks and balances that we would not be people that
would divide off into tribes or factions. And then Lincoln
(06:37):
quoting Jesus himself when he said that a house divided
against itself cannot stand. If your strategy is to divide
and conquer, you cannot ultimately hold power.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
David's an not your senior contributor joining us.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
I could take any one of these issues and we
could apply this formula today. One of our polls from
the Associated Press showed clearly you could compare whether it
was Republicans to Democrats, independence, you name it, how's the
president doing as being president, and you get somewhere consensus
wise at forty one percent approval oh, and your thoughts
(07:15):
on how he's handling a transgender issue fifty two percent
Boom and depending on Independence and Republicans, it's obviously much higher.
And basically two thirds agree your gender is look down
your sex at birth. So but this is one of
those divisions they created, but the American people didn't buy it,
(07:38):
and they don't end up getting power. And so I
think one of the fascinating things I've witnessed a lot
of things from the abandonment of God in my lifetime,
the abandonment of God and for what multiculturalism, political correctness,
spiritual plurality, all gods are the same, moral relativism, whatever
you think. But when it got down the road, what
was interesting was they went too far. And I don't
(08:00):
know what the one too far was. I think some
of it was you can't figure out what bathroom? And
then I think, no, no, no, it was when they
couldn't define a woman.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
You asked them what's a woman? They couldn't tell you.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
And then when you started seeing biological men and boxing
rings and swimming pools and volleyball courts and you know,
basketball courts competing against biological women, it just was all
one step too far. It was that ultimate overswing. So
I mean, when I'm setting up this is feeling like
a Sean Hannity segment. What I'm setting up is a
(08:32):
lot of this is based on that one party state strategy,
which is the ultimate overswing, and issue by issue, it's
an overswing too right.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Well sure, and that's what happened in California in the
early two thousands. These two political strategists who took over
the mindset of the California Democrat Party, John B. Judas
and Ruy Tahia, who are still around today, but they've
made some significant changes. Their theory worked in the early
two thousands. They basically said, there's enough Democrat and Democrats
(09:01):
in California to drive the Republicans into the sea. And
so they did, and they basically everything in California went Democrat,
every state wide office, everything except a handful of state
legislative offices for House reps and sentence and a handful
of congressional districts.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
And then basically the.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Democrat reality was get out if you don't like it,
and they did the party California and you know what
they did, The people did leave. Now they're stuck with
their own singular one party only, and they've driven out
all their opposition. Well, guess what, it gets pretty lonely
because now all the benefits have to go to the
people that you brought to the tribe, and the people
(09:42):
who were working and paying those bills have disappeared. Now,
what are you going to do? The California model is
a total failure.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
I hate to thase.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Guys are now having to admit it.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Yeah, but as they admit it, they don't know what's next.
They have no clue.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
No, So you know, we keep sitting here like, okay,
they have no leader that they're telling us, They have
no message that they're telling us. They're caught. Everyone will say,
in a very discrediting cover up of Joe Biden's condition,
(10:17):
there's something even worse. They're connecting the dots. Wait a minute.
You didn't let us pick Bernie and you forced Tillery
and loss. You didn't let us pick Bernie, and you
gave us Joe and one, and then you secured all
the electoral primary votes you needed, and then you exposed him,
and then you went to your candidate you wanted all along.
Who was the first one out In twenty twenty Kamala Harris,
(10:38):
you don't respect us as voters. This is within their
own party they are discredited. I mean, there's death of
journalism and there's the death of the Democrat Party. But
the joke of it all is they really don't we
keep waiting for what they have planned. I think I
know what they have planned. But what if their own
party constituents aren't there, what if they're grasped? Money isn't
(11:01):
there when they go to do whatever they're going to do.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
And I'm becoming thoroughly convinced they don't know what to do.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
You know, these two consultants we mentioned to, Harah and
Judas have written a book called Where Have All the
Democrats Gone?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Now?
Speaker 4 (11:17):
They're the ones that drove them into the sea, starting
where you went? Where they go? What there were they
always were?
Speaker 3 (11:23):
You left?
Speaker 4 (11:24):
And in this epic book that they write, it takes
them two hundred and seventy two pages to acknowledge the
fact that independence exist in this voting reality. So that's
the other part of this whole myth, Michael, is that
the entire nation is moving so far away from these
hyper partisan, Washington based, billionaire driven shadow parties that people
(11:46):
are just looking for answers so they can get on
with their lives because they're lonely and they're miserable, and
the political burdens that are placed upon them don't make
life any better.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
David sonati joining us.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
All right, So here's my point, and I think everybody
listening to the sound of my voice would agree with this.
The Democrat Party is dying. I said it would, one
or both parties would be gone by the end of
the decade. Nobody has a hard time seeing them. In fact,
Democrats themselves and these two top strategists would admit that
they don't see their role in it and that they
(12:17):
created it. But where is the Republican Party? It too,
may be gone already now.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
I call it. It is trump Ism or maga.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
I think it's the Reagan Revolution combined with the Tea
Party movement, combined with a big dope dose of trump Ism.
But it's not the Republican Party, and I don't know
that it has a future. You could say with great accuracy.
Control by the elite inside the Beltway is the real
rotting corpse. And this growing independence and this growing Americanism
(12:54):
is rising. I am more confident than I was five
years ago when I said it that these parties, the
two parties system is over, and it was a perfect storm,
a perfect storm of them overswinging, taking a step too far,
and the perfect storm of the arrival of Donald Trump.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
And it's blown up in their face beautifully.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
Well, when we come back, I've got a quote from
this book I've been waiting to share with you. It's
going to flip you out.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Oh well, I want to be flipped.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
It's your morning show with Michael del Journo.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
I love when we go into a break and Read
and David have conversations that should happen on the air.
The long and the short of it is, I use
the expression the ultimate overswing the Democrats. Maybe the better
analogy is what happens when the dog catches the car
gets run over. That's really what happened. And David brought
up something really profound. The key moment was the minute
(13:49):
they got gay marriage. Now you caught the car. Had
they stopped there, now go have a nice day, that
would have been fine. Red made some great points about
how the gay in LGBTQ don't relate to the t
and so you can't unite these factions. But but the
bottom line is, you know, you lose God, you lose man.
(14:10):
And so you know that in all of this, David
uh Justice Scalia had it nailed. I mean he saw
this coming because this is, you know, the obvious conclusion.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
And then you want to flip us the quote from
the DEM's book.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
But but on that notion, that's really what happened, right,
I mean that and not and not keeping kids out.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
Of it exactly right, and and and and turning it
into the schools into a cultural mandate. Yes, they went.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
To queens and kindergartens is sick.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
Now everyone can see it and can see where it
inevitably goes, and people don't want to go over that
bridge or go over that cliff. So Michael and into
Harri's book Where have all the Democrats Gone? Introduction page one.
They go to a blue collar town east of Baltimore
and interview a labor leader and they ask him why
some white workers have left the Democrat Party and turned
(15:02):
to Trump and Republicans. The answer is, the guy says, quote,
I mean a lot of it is am radio. He
said it out loud. Yeah, In other words, where there's
still real conversations going on all for things that matter,
and people are able to tell the truth. The whole
(15:25):
mythology of the progressive world discipline, it just evaporates.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Well it's not real, you know.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
I will say two things I used to say, the
talk Rady was the last bastion of truth, and truth
is alive. Truth is an entity, and it is a
powerful thing. I don't possess it. I can speak it,
I can acknowledge it, but I don't put that in
the truth. The truth will have its stay on its own,
and radio played a very key role for many, many decades.
(15:55):
I think the final straw was when social media technocracy
and podcas casting really finished the deal. That's when the many,
not just the few that many listened to, but the
many got to speak and it all came to them.
And we come back going back to the Joe vigism
of your insulting us and you're embarrassing yourself. The Democrats
(16:17):
wanting to be hailed now for revealing what they were
covering up.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
I sing, some folk are Wisconsin.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
In My Morning Show with Your Morning Show with Michael
de zina.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
Hi, It's Michael.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Your Morning Show airs live five to eight am Central,
six to nine Eastern and great cities like Memphis, Tennessee,
tell Usa, Oklahoma, Sacramento, California. We'd love to be a
part of your morning routine, but we're happier here now.
Enjoy the podcast on the air and streaming live on
your iHeartRadio app. Were honored to serve you well the president.
He was honored with a parade of camels and swords
(16:57):
at the Royal Court and cutter after a very successful
visit in Saudi Arabia with a commitment of a trillion
dollar investment from the Saudis in the US. And is
this all end in Turkey? With Ukraine Russian war talk
time will tell and the late Pete Rose now eligible
for Major League Baseball's Hall of Fame.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
I think what.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Is so obvious in this decision is the announcement made
after Pete Rose's death. This is something really bad that's
now feeling even worse. Nobody loves the game of baseball more,
and nobody is more unforgiving, and I refuse to and
they're not asking for it.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Will I ever forgive major League Baseball?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
But when Rob Manfred, the Commissioner, released the statement, obviously
a man no longer with us cannot represent a threat
to the game. Now you're proudly stating you waited till
he would die, as if Pete rose for the last
(18:05):
two decades that he was seeking this was any threat
to the game of baseball. This is despicable. And this
from Major League Baseball, whose number one sponsor is gambling.
You're watching baseball as they're promoting you gambling on the games,
(18:26):
as they banned this man and waited till he was dead.
I will never forgive baseball. I love Cooperstown. It was
one of my greatest visits with my son. I'll never
go back to the Baseball Hall of Fame, and you're lucky.
I love the game more than I hate you, and
I'll even bother to watch it. This is one of
the most I mean, loser of the day Commissioner Manfred
quote of the day, loser of the decade, losing situation.
(18:50):
Baseball's handled this so poorly and it ends at its worst. David,
your thoughts, well, it's.
Speaker 4 (18:55):
Another one of those viral infections that once it gets
started you can't stop bit because it's it preys upon
human weakness. I mean, I'm watching Kevin Hart do ads
for the NBA gambling industry literally encouraging people about the
excitement of prop bets. That's the most addictive reality. That's
(19:17):
like the crack cocaine of sports wagering when you're sitting
there betting in the half seconds on whether the ball
is going to be shot from the three point layup
or a dunk. All right, this is this is disastrous.
Look at the story from the NFL and super Fan
The chiefs a wolf character who's now going to jail
for thirty two years, and we're finally admitting out loud
(19:37):
he's robbing banks because he's an addicted gambler. I mean,
these things are nuts, and professional sports in America is
lost to them. It's just a matter of time before
we wake up one day and realize that the whole
thing's a show.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
They thought the gambling industry, they thought they had a
problem with Shoeless Joe, which, if anybody researches it, this
may be a really falsely accused individual for Pete Rose
did it. Tried to deny it too long. I mean,
they could have punished him. They didn't need to make
this a life band and you need to spitefully wait
for him to die. That's all despicable, but they thought
(20:13):
they had a problem with shoeless Joe and Pete. Now
every league has a problem, every game, every event. We
talked about this, and I don't want to, you know,
delight and speak ill of anybody, but somebody I thought
very hard to get elected and was very disappointed once
elected a governor made the statement that, you know, well,
at least I protected us from casino gaming.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
And I was like, you, well, I just edited myself.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
They don't want I would have said it next Red's laughing.
I would. It would have been a pop right out
of my mouth.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Well, I'm trying to be a more resurrected person, but yeah,
I was reading the more n I mean, guys should
do like Senator Kenny. I'm not saying you're the dumbest
person on earth, but you better hope the dumbest don't die.
But you know, like they want casinos anymore. Yeah, they
want to pay dealers, they want to pay maids, they
(21:07):
want to pay chefs, they want to have buffets in hotel.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
They don't want any of that. You just gave theopets.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Yeah, you just gave them twenty four hours, seven days
a week, three hundred and sixty five days a year
an ability.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
Now a guy. First of all, X number of people.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Become problem gamblers, just have gamblers scientifically, they just what
is a problem gambler? They're going to lose all their
money and then stop, all right. So you got husbands
sitting right next to their wives on the couch, maxing
out credit cards, doing losing everything right as they're sitting
(21:47):
on the couch next to their wife.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
That's a problem gambler.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
This mascot, that's what you call a pathological gambler. An
X number of people become that and what does that do?
Speaker 3 (22:03):
It loses all their money and then it steals.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
I was going to write a book called Busted until
my life was threatened and then I decided not to
write the book or even stay in that city. But
one of the stories was going to be an African American,
beautiful young lady who was pre met. Her dad was
a doctor, she was going to be a doctor. Her
gambling addiction led to obviously failing out of college, but
(22:29):
stealing a lot of the money that was given to her,
even selling the car that was given to her. I mean,
it was just a disaster. Another guy was married with
two small children, had a very good job in food distribution,
making six high six figures. This guy became a pathological gambler.
Next thing you know, he lost all his money. He
(22:52):
went on to cash company checks. He went to prison
where he got raped and beaten, lost his wife and children.
Nobody wants to tell you those stories, but they're there
every single day.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
But you want to get me wild.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
You have a commissioner of baseball who's number one advertising
and number one off field agenda is gaming.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
And you waited till this.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Guy died, and you're saying he's obviously no longer. You're
a threat to the game of baseball. So as the
commissioner of the NFL and the NBA and the NHL,
that are all turning a blind eye to this.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
And I get so wild, David.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
If they are going to mean it would be turning
over tables.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
We're on the ground now where where real people live.
Let's come back up one more time to the thirty
thousand foot level and go back to what we were
talking about earlier. The problem with all of this, whether
it's the idea of a single party that drives opponents
into the sea, or lying and hiding about Joe Biden. Look,
it doesn't matter what we're talking about Democrats, Republicans, politicians, industries.
(24:00):
The bottom line with the progressive mindset is that it
has no ability to appropriate the reality of human failing
and evil. When you do x, Y happens always because
people fall down. And if you pass laws and you
open opportunities that are mindless, utopian notions covered up in
(24:22):
false advertising, the other stuff's going to come out the
other end man, and it's not going to be pretty.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
And even if you're not a problem gambler, even if
you're not, you know the kind that will go on
to further crimes.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
And you're doing what when you could be doing what?
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Oh, now there's a that's everyone right, And you're following
these games and you're researching bats and then you're making
new bats and added bats, and now you're watching all
this instead of what is a husband? What is a father?
What is an employee?
Speaker 4 (25:02):
That person says to me, Michael, I've got I've got
plenty of money. This is gonna get a good idea.
Here's here's a really good thought to know that you're
not addicted. Take that money for the next twelve months
and give it to a necessary charity, to help mothers
in need, to help orphans, to help people get adopted
as kids. Give the money away and then you'll know
if you're free.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Well, I'll do you one better. I can think of
a personal anecdotal. I'll never reveal who, but this was
somebody I looked at. Oh, you're not an alcoholic. Okay,
let's not drink for a month. And if you can
go a month without drinking, then then you're right. Now
I'm wrong, you're not an alcoholic. That person obviously didn't
stop drinking for a month and obviously never spoke to
(25:42):
me again. But all right, so but we all know
how that works out. Bottom line is they're insulting us,
they're embarrassing themselves. That's a theme for the day. Final
say on all of the Democrat cover ups. I mean,
I just love how like Jake tap It's a great example.
I mean here he is wanting to be the jolly
goodfellow for revealing everything with Joe Biden as he was
(26:07):
covering it. I mean, in other words, fellow, well, I mean,
if you if you want to play it like Chuckie Schumer,
just say I'm moving on.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
Okay, Well, that's obvious.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Sorry, you're just throwing yourself right under the bus and there,
and the voters are going to move on, probably.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
With AOC if she's not president.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
But for the Jake Tappers and the others writing this book, obviously,
if you knew this, and you.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Can prove this, you were a part of the cover up.
I mean, there is no jolly goodfellow here, right.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
No, there isn't, Michael. And this is where we watched
the tap dance of the political few and you and here,
and so basically, what Schumer has the power to say
is when I say it's over, it's over. I say
it's over. So now we move on. Now I can
understand by a person saying, yes we were wrong, Yes
we covered up, Yes he was impaired, Yes it was
(26:57):
a disaster. Now we got to pick up the pieces
and go forward. But no, it's just now we.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Doesn't that doesn't that remind you of when when Barack
Obama would just say, you know, I never forget what
I used to play the thunder Remember the thunderclap. I
used to play it a sillier time in my life.
You know, just eat up. You know, we just all
supposed to ignore it. Well, the American people haven't ignored it,
and they're rejecting it. And I think it's dead and
I don't think there's any bringing it back to life
(27:22):
so far. They certainly don't know what their next move is.
Great visit and overtime, David, appreciate it. We'll talk very
mcsoon and don't forget the Public Square on demand any
time at the Public Square dot com. Heard on two
hundred stations nationwide, and David will talk to you next
week or sooner. The conditions warned, she's going to get smoked.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
He's got too stopped.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
That, ladies and gentlemen, is a rare Michael del Jorno mistake.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
We already did sounds the day time for your top
five stories the day.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
The annual inflation rate dropped to two point three percent
in April, lower than expected and lower since February of
twenty twenty one.
Speaker 5 (28:00):
Markets had expected the consumer Price Index to increase to
two point four percent. That's a broad measure of the
cost of goods and services, excluding food and energy. The
CPI was up two point eight percent year over year,
according to numbers on Tuesday from the Labor Department.

I'm Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
Late Pete Rose is being reinstated by Major League Baseball.
Marbran shook us All Morning Long reports.
Speaker 6 (28:21):
The Cincinnati Reds great and shoeless Joe Jackson are both
being removed from MLB's banned list. MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred
stated the punishment for banned individuals ends upon their deaths.
Their removal from the list opens the door for both
to enter the Baseball Hall of Fame posthumously. Rose was
banned for betting on baseball while manager of the Reds,
(28:44):
while Jackson was banned for his role in the nineteen
twenty one Black Sox scandal.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
I'm Brian Shuck.

Diddy's ex girlfriend the prosecution star witness. We'll take the
stand again today after yesterday breaking down in tears describing
the abuse and violence she suffered at the hands of
Sean Ditty Combs.
Speaker 7 (29:03):
Singer Cassie Ventura said did he force her to stay
awake for days to perform disgusting, drug fueled sex acts
with other men that he called freak offs. The heavily
pregnant thirty eight year old also testified Combs beat her
multiple times, saying he'd knocked me over drag me, kick me,
stomp me in the head during their tenure relationship, which
(29:23):
began when she was nineteen and the rap star was
thirty seven. Prosecutor say Combs used his fame and power
to sexually abuse women from two thousand and four to
twenty twenty four. He's pleaded not guilty to all charges,
including sex trafficking and racketeering. I'm Sarah Lee Kessler.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
The Jilli's question is everyone has their day. If you
ever noticed how every day has so many days? What
do I mean?
Speaker 3 (29:47):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (29:47):
International Mathematics Day today, National Decency Day today, Buttermilk Biscuit
Day today.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
All good, but they won't make you dance.
Speaker 8 (30:00):
Today is National Dance Like a Chicken Day, celebrating this
silly song that's popular at weddings and october Fest that
I'll have you doing the Chicken Dance even if you
can't dance. Written in the fifties, the seventies made it popular,
but the song was actually created to get you to drink,
not dance. But if you're dancing to it, you're probably drinking.
So mission accomplished. I'm Bree Tennis.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Oh I love you, Bree.

inflation rate dropped to two point three percent sent in April,
lower than expected. Marco Ruby with the President and Cutter
(31:04):

I don't know what that was, sord aerobics. I mean
that was quite the welcome the president got at the
Royal court and Cutter. Marco will be heading to Turkey
for peace talks with Ukraine and Russia. The question is

(31:27):
and Russia. And despite all of the money concerns and
uncertainties that we've been experiencing, Americans are planning to take
road trips this summer. Let's take a look at where

The may they have Nashville, Davidson, Murphysboro, and Franklin listed together.
And Knoxville is a separate thing. And Chattanooga comes in
at number fifty three. There's a lot of Tennessee. I'm
surprised at Atlanta being so high. Washington d C is affordability, accessibility,
(33:08):
cheap flights to Atlanta one of the reasons they factored.
And how easy it is to get to these places
is part of the ranking. You know, how much the
availability of restaurants, spas, water parks. The list goes on
and on, and the weather also gets ranked in there.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
