Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's Michael reminding you that your morning show can

six to nine Eastern and great cities like Nashville, Tennessee
two below, Mississippi and Sacramento, California. We'd love to be
a part of your morning routine and take the drive
to work with you, but better late than never. We're
grateful you're here now. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in this together.
This is your Morning Show with Michael O'Dell joiner.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Well, well, well our number two, This is your Morning
Show with Michael does Chris Brock going in. I'm here
with you today tomorrow, Michael back on Friday. In the meantime,
we have the inimitable Rory O'Neill joining us, of course,
the correspondent or national correspondent for this great show. Rory.
(00:56):
There is a very interesting story, sir, about of his
use mettage one.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Hang on getting my fisaurus out to look up inimitable.
But go ahead, yes, yes.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Yes, you know where I found I first heard that
word started using pink Floyd.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
He says, I got the inimitable Hendrix. Pum.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Yeah, well that goes your story then, doesn't it.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
It's sure, yes, yes it Hello. Is there anybody in there?
Just not if you can hear me? Uh so, this
is okay, tell me, give me the quick story, and
then I'm gonna ask a whole bunch of questions obviously
about this. Cannabis use is up a lot among elderly
or older people.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Right. We're seeing record use of cannabis products among people
over the age of sixty five, and a change in demographics,
with wealthier people now partaking and with more women partaking
as well. So this has been a growing trend as
the states changed their laws about marijuana, especially medical marijuana,
(01:58):
and some of the stigmas going away.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
This is quite quite wild to me.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
I guess they're like, you know what, I'm checking out here,
I'm retired, screw this noise.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Here we go, let's go to town.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
So what's behind the What's interesting is the couple of things.
The percentage of people using marijuana in the in their
sixty upper sixties plus has like went way high. And
then women, So tell me about the how much high
it's gone up and about the women. What's behind the women,
(02:35):
if you have any idea on the story reporting, sure.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
So the use of cannabis products for people over sixty
five is still low, let's be clear, it's only about
seven percent, but it's rapidly gone up from about one
percent in two thousand and five. So that's as a
pretty quick escalation there, but again in large part because
the laws are changing. Availability accessibility has never been and
(03:01):
it's also now done through you know, whether or not
it's a gummy or a cookie or a brownie, not
necessarily a bong or a joint that people are using.
And now that you can go to stores where it's
a you can feel it's a bit safer, you're not
it's not underground, it's not passed from whoever on a
back alley. I think that also brings a bit more
(03:24):
confidence to people. And you know, you know what the
pricing is, things like that, there's no danger element or
much less of one.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
So yeah, a lot.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
Of those different factors all at play here as a
and of course it's maybe reliving the sixties is a
big part of it.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Well, and by the way, they talk about health issues
in this article, and it's interesting to me though because
they're talking about chronic obstructive palmary disease COPD, hypotensial diabetes,
cancer stuff. But literally it seems to me though, I mean,
you have going to get COPD even taking a gummy.
I mean, I mean, I know, I'm just jomoke on
(04:02):
the microphone, but that's gotta be from inhaling, right.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
Right, That's what we yes, and look the doctor.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
The medical advice is this, They're not judging you on
whether or not you're using it, but instead saying just
makes you sure your doctor knows because marijuana or cannabis
can impact other medications you may be taking. It can
make them more effective, it can make them less effective.
The doctor may want to change dosages or monitor or
some things. So just make sure your doctor knows if
(04:33):
you're on other medications and you're indulging in cannabis products,
keep your doctor in the loop.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
And then one more kind of a twofold question Rory
O'Neil or National correspondent, is they talk about adverse psychological
reactions or psycho psychiatric reactions, especially edibles. And then also
it can accelerate. Doctor Mark Siegel from Fox News is
down on this news of it going up he says,
(05:00):
a lot of problems with the lungs.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
It's got to be from healing them. I'm guessing not eating.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
But he try to accelerate dementia and can affect behavior.
He's very disturbed about it. Thoughts on that from what
you've gathered in your news reporting on this, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
I mean that is also a concern. You know.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
The reason that you're taking it, you know, may be
for stress. Maybe they help you sleep, maybe they help
you for your aching joints. Look, some people would prefer
a more natural remedy through cannabis. Others would rather go
to the local pharmacy. Some have not found relief at
the pharmacy and have to depend on cannabis. It's often
used to help ease symptoms of nausea for people undergoing
(05:42):
cancer treatments through chemotherapy. So various reasons why people are
using it. Some do it because, Hey, it's Friday night
and it's a big net at the villages in Florida.
So yes, a whole bunch of difficulties.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Hey, you said relief, how do you spare relief? Weed?
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Rory, thank you for your talk this morning. We will
be talking to you again in the very near future.
Thank you, sir. There he goes Rory O'Neill, National Correspondent, extraordinary.
I wanted to work in another joke about it with him,
but he had to go. I wanted to work in
a joke about you know, he said, no, people are
(06:20):
this or that or the other a national correspondent and
they got a lot of work on their plate and uh,
and they're doing a new story about it, so they're
gonna have to chew on it and see what said
what happened?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Uh And of course we we all had to try
some sample some this morning.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
I'm just kidding. Joke jo.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
If you know, way back when when you know that
you know the stupid and you guys know this juff
and read producers the stupid thing. We're going to drink
and have a cop to a Brothawaiser while I'm on
the air. Do you guys ever have somebody do that
in your sphere?
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Yeah, get they wouldn't talk me into that. I wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
I wouldn't do that.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
So yeah, this is like when I was in Madison, Wisconsin,
working my way up the chain of the you know,
the ladder in the early two thousands, uh, I did that,
and I can't. After one or two, I am just one.
I started to become useless.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Now, I did wear the glasses one time that you
had to wear that simulated what it was.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Have you seen that?
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Where did you?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I think?
Speaker 3 (07:33):
So?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
When the beer goggles.
Speaker 6 (07:34):
Yeah, we had the We had like a state trooper
or something come in and we had to wear those
and then try to walk around and it was very
disorienting and yeah, not good at all.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Uh okay, so you did wear those goggles? Okay, yeah,
those were they talk about.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Was a drinker though, I was.
Speaker 6 (07:51):
I mean, seriously, you know, it's not that I'm proud
of it at all, but I was a potheit. I
am a guess alcoholic. As a recovering alcoholic, I am
a recovering good hit.
Speaker 5 (08:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Wow, that's it. That's that's nice to anybody. Yeah, well,
there's a lot of problems with it. There's marijuana and
do psychosis. One of the one of the things that
I could share with you that blew me away. This
is probably ten years ago. I was reading an article.
It's called tell your children or Teach your children. I
(08:24):
forget this guy.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
His name will come to me in a second, but
he is a New York He was a New York
Times supporter.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
His wife was a is a forensic psychiatrist, so she
works as a psychiatrist criminals in New York City. One
time he came home and she said, you have no
idea how many the people that I work with were
high in marijuana when they committed their crimes. And he laughed,
you know, he said, oh, that's that's some stoners. And
stoners don't through violent stuff. She said, it's psychosis. Marijuana
(08:55):
do psychosis. What is a psychosis? Psychosis, he described, is
when you think someone's trying to kill you.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
People trying to kill you.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
And when you think somebody's trying to kill you, you
either kill them first or you're going.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
To be killed. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Well yeah, but you reminded me of a time, way
back when, way back when, with some of the guys,
and we we did some of the marijuana, and uh,
I swore I was Jimmy Hendrix and we're sitting in
the bushes, like we said, we talking about I get
in trouble. We sit in the bushes hiding out thinking
(09:31):
the cops are out there.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
You know.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
We're like in high school or college I can't remember what.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
And uh, in the suburban area there, and we're in
the bushes sitting down and I was parent of the
cops were coming, and then my friend's like, oh, let's
dash it. He put it in a place you don't
want to put it, and I'm like, no, no, give
it to me, and then I shoved it my mouth.
Oh no, I mean that's the kind of that's how
it's like, what the hell am I Like? What the
(09:55):
heck am I doing? What am I doing over here? Yeah,
there's a story I probably shouldn't have shared.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Yeah, good decision.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
And then all my friends do was laughing because we
couldn't believe I just shoved it. Yeah, it's because I
don't want to do it. Yeah, yeah, all right, enough
of that, not of that, but it was like we
just had I feel like we're just trying a little
nibble on a brownie, a pot brownie. It's your morning
show with Michael del.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Chorno Mason, Wisconsin.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
I was doing a show in the early two thousand
and two thousands, and uh, we had this guy who
was originally from Chicago and he was a sponsor and
it was a rib place and I got to endorse
him on the radio and eat ribs.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
They were so good. But he did these ads.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
You know, sometimes these guys that own their own place
do the ads guys and gals. Sometimes they're really terrible
and they shouldn't do their own ads. Sometimes they're really good.
He was great because he was a super character, and
I just to this freaking day. I still do my
impersonation of him. Sometimes we talk about getting ribs or
getting me, and I go, I'm intending guy go And
then meat just fall right off of the bone'stally what
(11:04):
he would say in the commercial.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
And the meat just fall right off of the ball
the bone. That song to go with, that's what's that.
Speaker 6 (11:15):
You would have wanted to license that song to play
behind him?
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Wun you yes?
Speaker 4 (11:19):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (11:20):
And the bullet hit and then meat fall.
Speaker 3 (11:22):

Speaker 7 (12:13):
It seems to me that perhaps the last four years
were unfortunately a part of a marijuana psychosis with the
Biden administration, or maybe it was mushrooms or something else,
and sailed actors who actually tried to screw everything up
and they went a little crazy with Uh maybe they
had the monchis when they were running the auto pen.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
Have a great day.
Speaker 5 (17:13):
Smoke him if he got a March shot.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
So March, that's the former owner of the Reds. Was
she like a chain smoker or something? Ah like a
like a large March the trucker from Pebe's Big Adventure.
Speaker 5 (17:28):
And then a.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
Rasped before in a large Marge, pass me a mob.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Bro, where were we Doge?
Speaker 3 (17:38):
We're gonna talk to John Decker or White House correspondent
in a moment, but first here's what Elon Musk said
about Doge, and then I'll tell you my thoughts on it.
On the Big Beautiful Bill or maybe not so.
Speaker 5 (17:52):
And something that just rost Carolina.
Speaker 9 (17:54):
How mad do you think President Trump is going to
be when he finds out that? Elon Musk said, I'm sorry,
but I just can't stand it any weren't this MASSI about.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
Rate forageous work filled?
Speaker 6 (18:02):
Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Shame on those who voted.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
Were you know you did wrong?
Speaker 10 (18:08):
You know it?
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Look the president on this bill. Doesn't change the president's opinion.
Speaker 10 (18:13):
This is one big, beautiful bill and he's.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Sticking to it.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
A disgusting abomination.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Wow, So so you you kind of like it is
that we said there, no, can I tell you something.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
It's a little extreme the way he set up, but
he's right.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
He is right because it does not do anything to
stop the deficit, does not do anything to stop the
amount of interest that we have to pay as a
debt service. It is insane when you look at this
here we go.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
This is from the Wall Street Journal.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
Federal interest this fiscal year already will be more than
the defense budgets.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Imagine what we could do with that for our defense.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
If we had a quarter of that to add to
the defense, it would just totally blow it through the
roof in a good way.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
So that's more than the.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Defense budget and more than Medicaid, disability insurance.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
And food stamps combined. It's destroying us.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
And so it is true that it you know, I
guess you could say it's the abomination. It's disgusting because
the problem is not being fixed, it's only being grown more. Now,
I will tell you that I heard an economists.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
It's very well respected.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
I forget, Oh, David Asmin from Fox Business, he's awesome.
And then also Jerry Willis from Fox Business. They're both awesome.
They were on yesterday afternoon and Fox. I forget which show,
and I was listening to it and and and here's
what here's what they said with I think it was
Reagan the interest on the debt or the percentage of
(19:52):
the budget. I think it was an interest on the
debtor or the GDP or something. It was at six
percent and worried about six or seven percent right now,
the same level, and Reagan did all these cuts and
all these other deregulation stuff, and it went down to
three percent.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
It can happen.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
And they did indicate those through the tax cuts that
will be renewed and other stuff that it's quite possible
it might come out the same way with Reagan. But
I'm a little skeptical. I hope they're right. I do
trust them because they know a lot more than I'll
ever know. So in a moment, we're going to talk
to John Decker, our White House correspondent, about this, and
(20:29):
we have them Okay, cool, I'm sorry about that. Hey, John,
how are you, sir?
Speaker 11 (20:35):
Hey, I'm doing great, Chris, hope you're doing well today.
I'm doing very well.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
So tell me this is an abomination, the disgusting abomination.
According to Elon Musk, what's behind this all of a sudden?
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Uh oh?
Speaker 3 (20:49):
And is it affecting the relationship or is more just
a disagreement about policy.
Speaker 11 (20:54):
Well, it's a disagreement about policy. I don't know whether
it impacts the relationship between President Trump and Elon Musk.
I don't think that matters all that much at all.
What matters is whether Elon Musk will have any influence
at all in terms of what happens in the Senate
with those deficit hawks that have been reluctant to support
this bill.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Now, with Elon Musk weighing.
Speaker 11 (21:16):
In it essentially gives them cover to oppose this legislation.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
So that's that's a great point, John, And what do
you think, based on what you're hearing and your sources
as White House correspondent, what if you read the toes
or do the best you can obviously and speculating, I guess,
But where does it seem like it's going at this time,
this very moment.
Speaker 11 (21:38):
Well, the bill that passed out of the House of
Representatives by just one vote is not going to pass
the way it's structured right now in the US Senate.
It's going to look different, and so this process is going.
Speaker 10 (21:50):
To take some time. The President has.
Speaker 11 (21:52):
Talked about a July fifteenth deadline the passive bill out
of the Senate. The House Speaker has spoken about a
July fourth deadline to pass a bill out of the Senate.
I think that if a bill were to be passed
out of the bill out of the House I'm sorry,
out of the Senate by.
Speaker 5 (22:07):
Either of those dates, it will not look like.
Speaker 11 (22:09):
The bill that passed out of the House. And that
means this whole process is going to be lengthy. It
took one full year in the President's first ternament office
to pass that.
Speaker 10 (22:19):
Huge tax cut bill.
Speaker 11 (22:20):
I think we're looking at the same kind of timetable
for this bill as well.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Wow, okay, so John, that's news to me. And then
because like you said, the Senate, you know, how much
how much different do you think based on again what
you're what you're seeing and hearing, do you think it.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Might end up being than the House bill? And then what.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Happens if because the tax cuts aspire when like this year, right.
Speaker 10 (22:48):
The tax cuts expire in December.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
Of this year, that is correct, So then John, we
those tax cuts could expire for six months or a
couple of months or something.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
Huh.
Speaker 11 (22:58):
Well, look, you know, I think that that's why the
clock is ticking for the Senate to get something done.
The clock is also ticking because this dynamic of Republicans
controlling the House and the Senate, even by narrow majorities,
will not last that long. The midterm elections will be
here next year there could be some changes in terms
of the composition of both the House and the Senate.
(23:19):
So the president is working on this timetable in which
he liked to get much of his legislative agenda complete, finished,
successfully completed within this first year of his second term.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
White House correspondent John Decker, how many Senate votes does
Trump need to pass his bill, his big beautiful bill,
quote unquote, And what do you think the margins possibly
could be short by based on what.
Speaker 10 (23:46):
You're hearing, Well, the president can only afford to.
Speaker 11 (23:49):
Lose three Senate Republicans. And one Senate Republican is already
said he's not voting for this bill, and that's Ran
Paul of Kentucky. There are other Republicans that this bill
doesn't cut enough.
Speaker 10 (24:02):
Or cuts too much, So the numbers are.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Are very narrow.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
If every Democrat, as.
Speaker 11 (24:08):
Is expected, votes against this legislation, he can only afford
to lose three, and he's already lost one.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
Very interesting, And then we got the Wall Street Journal
column or a story Wall Street sounding the alarm on
US debt this time it's worth listening to interest on
the debt blowing past a trillion annually. The federal interest
this fiscal year already will be more than the defense budget,
more than Medicaid, disability and food stamps combined.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
I mean, this is crippling us, isn't it.
Speaker 11 (24:39):
Well, it's certainly not a good thing. This bill would
add three trillion dollars to the debt, and that's the
reason why you had just a handful of Republicans opposed
to it, including Congressman Massey of Kentucky opposed this legislation,
but you have more deficit hawks that exist in the Senate,
and so you know, I think that there needs to
(25:00):
be some modifications to the bill that passed out of
the House in order to win the support of those
Senate Republicans who would describe themselves as deficit hawks. They're
not going to support something that adds three trillion dollars
in debt.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
That's pretty clear.
Speaker 3 (25:17):
White House Correspondent John Decker, thank you for joining us, sir.
I think we're going to chime back in with you
a little later on the show about Ukraine. Oh and
that's what Rory. I apologize, sir. I'll see tomorrow on
the air. Okay, thanks, yes, sir, Okay, yeah, Rory is
going to join us a little later on the show
about Ukraine. Last time we did Ukraine, who was with John,
(25:37):
so I thought he'd be doing that too. Nope, Rory
is that's okay. We'll stell fun on that that's coming
up at seven fifty. There's a lot on that now
Elon Musk's doge nerd Army. These are allegations left drugs, graffiti,
roaches and rats behind them and are taking over the
Institute of Piece m By the way, the Institute Piece
(25:59):
is led by a man with this ridiculous name.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
No offense to him, but George E. Moose.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
His last name is Moose, as in, I don't know
what is the moose make noise?
Speaker 2 (26:14):
I don't know. I saw like a dying cow probably.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Uh. Anyway, just Georgie Moose. Guy tried to lock Remember
when does showed up, he tried to lock him out.
I mean it was like, this is this guy's some
you know, woke dude on the left.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Anyway.
Speaker 11 (26:31):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
And then when they took the sign down over at
the instuit a Piece and they found weapons in that building.
Remember that that's wild anyway, So these people are hostile.
This guy's hostile towards Doze and and and the Trump folk. Anyways. Uh,
they reported evidence that they found Supposedly they found marijuana roaches,
(26:54):
you know, leftover joints in the in the garbage after
dose left.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Well, look they have a picture. They could have easily.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Put that in there, right and I wouldn't put it
above anybody, or you know, beyond anybody that doesn't like
the trum administration from throwing some weed in a garbage kid.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
On the same token, maybe it is. Let's see what
we got here to say?
Speaker 3 (27:15):
Among other things, uh they found a photograph of marijuana
post it on uh PO posted by the economist reporter
Daniel Knowles. They founded the garbage after Doze left. Again,
I'm skeptical, but nonetheless they reported evidence of rats and
roaches in the building. Vermin were not a problem prior
to en Doge. Do you really think dose brought rats
(27:38):
and roaches in a month or so? Come on, they could,
but dude, these are these are like tech nerd dudes.
You think they're walking around with roaches crawling all over them?
Speaker 10 (27:49):
Prey?
Speaker 3 (27:49):
Sure, Jeff Brett, are you skeptical on that or do
you think they possibly could have really brought in rats
and cock a roaches.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
Into the in the building? Making rats great?
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Then? See, let's see how wou that making rats great again?
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Mrga Murga sounds like it's kind of a virus. Oh no,
Mrga came out of the Middle East. We're all doomed.
Speaker 6 (28:14):
Murger's here because there's no rats in Washington, DC.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Right, No, not at all.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Literally, yes, yes, and that's probably the rat capital of
of the country after New York City. Right, Oh my gosh,
good times, very very good times. And then here's one
more thing. Trump ally Lindsey Graham l Rushpo used to
call him Lindsay Graham.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Do you remember that that was great? H Lindsay Graham.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Calls out Elon Musk quote bull as the full word
after tech Titan throws his credibility under the bush. Musk
It's reposted a post from a conservative guy about supposedly
uh be ring burst for four hundred and eleven thousand
dollars of the Department of State for visits to Ukraine.
(29:06):
And so we must be tweeted this out. Why is
the bill so high? Like thinking that that that Eli
that we call it. Lindsey Graham is going to Ukraine
and stately massive five star hotels, So ELI must tweet
why is hotel bill so high? The room service must
be incredible? You got four hundred eleven thousand dollars hotel bill? Whoa,
(29:32):
those are some Hunter Biden Chateau Marmal wherever it is
numbers right, No, Lindsey Graham went nuts on that and said, no,
that's that's something with our government and something with Ukraine.
He explains it here, so he says it's a lot
more legit than five star hotels with room service.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
This is your Morning Show with Michael Dale.

Trona arm squeeze the Sounds in the day in first

Speaker 2 (31:04):
Minute.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
I I can't find it. Let's also do we have
we have a bunch of them. Did you guys know
that Biden? Did you guys talk about how Biden was
lost in his own closet? Did you hear about this?
Speaker 2 (31:19):
I haven't heard that. Oh this is great.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Biden, Joe Biden literally was lost in his own closet
at the White House, according to Secret Service people.
Speaker 9 (31:27):
Listen, this Secret Service whistleblower actually was assigned to Biden,
and he told me that Biden used to get lost
in his closet in the mornings in the White House.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
I mean, the guy literally.
Speaker 9 (31:40):
Stumbling around in the White House residents couldn't find his
way out of his own closet. The presidents of the
United States. I mean, this is outrageous. We were lied to, and.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
I was doing my video podcast playing. I was like
an old bad goes look at it to do the
pushing to the clothes trying to find my way out.
Come on, yeah, I got the nuclear coach. Where am I?
Somebody get me out of here now I need some
help down.
Speaker 2 (32:11):

Speaker 3 (32:24):
Did you hear about the California the girl in California
who was She won the track meet contest for state
or something, and then she wanted to do she wanted to.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Do what the.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
Former Olympic gold medalist did when he won a track competition.
He took a fire extinguisher and sprayed his shoes as
if they were on fire. She wanted to do that.
She did that with the with the help of her father,
and the disqualified her for it.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Here's just a little bit of that right now. I
works so hard.
Speaker 5 (33:03):
Through that title.
Speaker 4 (33:05):
When she blew the fire singer, sure the opponents were gone.
That was our moment of celebration, and c IF officials
made that about them.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
All right, we'll do more of this and get into
it as a topic. I have a very strong opinion
on that as well. Did you know that Republicans love
Jazzy Jasmine Crockett, Dallas congress woman.
Speaker 2 (33:28):
They love her. Republicans love her.
Speaker 12 (33:29):
Listen, It's become clear as I have been out in
various cities throughout this country where I've had Republicans walk
up to me and tell me how much they like me.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Are you serious?
Speaker 12 (33:41):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you'd be surprised.
Speaker 10 (33:45):
Oh yeah, she even.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
She doesn't believe her own life. Can you hear how
she's talking there?
Speaker 3 (33:49):

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in this together.
This is your Morning Show with Michael O'Dell joiner.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Well, well, well our number two, This is your Morning
Show with Michael does Chris Brock going in. I'm here
with you today tomorrow, Michael back on Friday. In the meantime,
we have the inimitable Rory O'Neill joining us, of course,
the correspondent or national correspondent for this great show. Rory.
(00:56):
There is a very interesting story, sir, about of his
use mettage one.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Hang on getting my fisaurus out to look up inimitable.
But go ahead, yes, yes.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Yes, you know where I found I first heard that
word started using pink Floyd.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
He says, I got the inimitable Hendrix. Pum.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Yeah, well that goes your story then, doesn't it.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
It's sure, yes, yes it Hello. Is there anybody in there?
Just not if you can hear me? Uh so, this
is okay, tell me, give me the quick story, and
then I'm gonna ask a whole bunch of questions obviously
about this. Cannabis use is up a lot among elderly
or older people.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Right. We're seeing record use of cannabis products among people
over the age of sixty five, and a change in demographics,
with wealthier people now partaking and with more women partaking
as well. So this has been a growing trend as
the states changed their laws about marijuana, especially medical marijuana,
(01:58):
and some of the stigmas going away.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
This is quite quite wild to me.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
I guess they're like, you know what, I'm checking out here,
I'm retired, screw this noise.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Here we go, let's go to town.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
So what's behind the What's interesting is the couple of things.
The percentage of people using marijuana in the in their
sixty upper sixties plus has like went way high. And
then women, So tell me about the how much high
it's gone up and about the women. What's behind the women,
(02:35):
if you have any idea on the story reporting, sure.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
So the use of cannabis products for people over sixty
five is still low, let's be clear, it's only about
seven percent, but it's rapidly gone up from about one
percent in two thousand and five. So that's as a
pretty quick escalation there, but again in large part because
the laws are changing. Availability accessibility has never been and
(03:01):
it's also now done through you know, whether or not
it's a gummy or a cookie or a brownie, not
necessarily a bong or a joint that people are using.
And now that you can go to stores where it's
a you can feel it's a bit safer, you're not
it's not underground, it's not passed from whoever on a
back alley. I think that also brings a bit more
(03:24):
confidence to people. And you know, you know what the
pricing is, things like that, there's no danger element or
much less of one.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
So yeah, a lot.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
Of those different factors all at play here as a
and of course it's maybe reliving the sixties is a
big part of it.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Well, and by the way, they talk about health issues
in this article, and it's interesting to me though because
they're talking about chronic obstructive palmary disease COPD, hypotensial diabetes,
cancer stuff. But literally it seems to me though, I mean,
you have going to get COPD even taking a gummy.
I mean, I mean, I know, I'm just jomoke on
(04:02):
the microphone, but that's gotta be from inhaling, right.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
Right, That's what we yes, and look the doctor.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
The medical advice is this, They're not judging you on
whether or not you're using it, but instead saying just
makes you sure your doctor knows because marijuana or cannabis
can impact other medications you may be taking. It can
make them more effective, it can make them less effective.
The doctor may want to change dosages or monitor or
some things. So just make sure your doctor knows if
(04:33):
you're on other medications and you're indulging in cannabis products,
keep your doctor in the loop.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
And then one more kind of a twofold question Rory
O'Neil or National correspondent, is they talk about adverse psychological
reactions or psycho psychiatric reactions, especially edibles. And then also
it can accelerate. Doctor Mark Siegel from Fox News is
down on this news of it going up he says,
(05:00):
a lot of problems with the lungs.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
It's got to be from healing them. I'm guessing not eating.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
But he try to accelerate dementia and can affect behavior.
He's very disturbed about it. Thoughts on that from what
you've gathered in your news reporting on this, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
I mean that is also a concern. You know.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
The reason that you're taking it, you know, may be
for stress. Maybe they help you sleep, maybe they help
you for your aching joints. Look, some people would prefer
a more natural remedy through cannabis. Others would rather go
to the local pharmacy. Some have not found relief at
the pharmacy and have to depend on cannabis. It's often
used to help ease symptoms of nausea for people undergoing
(05:42):
cancer treatments through chemotherapy. So various reasons why people are
using it. Some do it because, Hey, it's Friday night
and it's a big net at the villages in Florida.
So yes, a whole bunch of difficulties.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Hey, you said relief, how do you spare relief? Weed?
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Rory, thank you for your talk this morning. We will
be talking to you again in the very near future.
Thank you, sir. There he goes Rory O'Neill, National Correspondent, extraordinary.
I wanted to work in another joke about it with him,
but he had to go. I wanted to work in
a joke about you know, he said, no, people are
(06:20):
this or that or the other a national correspondent and
they got a lot of work on their plate and uh,
and they're doing a new story about it, so they're
gonna have to chew on it and see what said
what happened?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Uh And of course we we all had to try
some sample some this morning.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
I'm just kidding. Joke jo.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
If you know, way back when when you know that
you know the stupid and you guys know this juff
and read producers the stupid thing. We're going to drink
and have a cop to a Brothawaiser while I'm on
the air. Do you guys ever have somebody do that
in your sphere?
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Yeah, get they wouldn't talk me into that. I wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
I wouldn't do that.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
So yeah, this is like when I was in Madison, Wisconsin,
working my way up the chain of the you know,
the ladder in the early two thousands, uh, I did that,
and I can't. After one or two, I am just one.
I started to become useless.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Now, I did wear the glasses one time that you
had to wear that simulated what it was.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Have you seen that?
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Where did you?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I think?
Speaker 3 (07:33):
So?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
When the beer goggles.
Speaker 6 (07:34):
Yeah, we had the We had like a state trooper
or something come in and we had to wear those
and then try to walk around and it was very
disorienting and yeah, not good at all.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Uh okay, so you did wear those goggles? Okay, yeah,
those were they talk about.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Was a drinker though, I was.
Speaker 6 (07:51):
I mean, seriously, you know, it's not that I'm proud
of it at all, but I was a potheit. I
am a guess alcoholic. As a recovering alcoholic, I am
a recovering good hit.
Speaker 5 (08:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Wow, that's it. That's that's nice to anybody. Yeah, well,
there's a lot of problems with it. There's marijuana and
do psychosis. One of the one of the things that
I could share with you that blew me away. This
is probably ten years ago. I was reading an article.
It's called tell your children or Teach your children. I
(08:24):
forget this guy.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
His name will come to me in a second, but
he is a New York He was a New York
Times supporter.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
His wife was a is a forensic psychiatrist, so she
works as a psychiatrist criminals in New York City. One
time he came home and she said, you have no
idea how many the people that I work with were
high in marijuana when they committed their crimes. And he laughed,
you know, he said, oh, that's that's some stoners. And
stoners don't through violent stuff. She said, it's psychosis. Marijuana
(08:55):
do psychosis. What is a psychosis? Psychosis, he described, is
when you think someone's trying to kill you.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
People trying to kill you.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
And when you think somebody's trying to kill you, you
either kill them first or you're going.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
To be killed. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Well yeah, but you reminded me of a time, way
back when, way back when, with some of the guys,
and we we did some of the marijuana, and uh,
I swore I was Jimmy Hendrix and we're sitting in
the bushes, like we said, we talking about I get
in trouble. We sit in the bushes hiding out thinking
(09:31):
the cops are out there.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
You know.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
We're like in high school or college I can't remember what.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
And uh, in the suburban area there, and we're in
the bushes sitting down and I was parent of the
cops were coming, and then my friend's like, oh, let's
dash it. He put it in a place you don't
want to put it, and I'm like, no, no, give
it to me, and then I shoved it my mouth.
Oh no, I mean that's the kind of that's how
it's like, what the hell am I Like? What the
(09:55):
heck am I doing? What am I doing over here? Yeah,
there's a story I probably shouldn't have shared.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Yeah, good decision.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
And then all my friends do was laughing because we
couldn't believe I just shoved it. Yeah, it's because I
don't want to do it. Yeah, yeah, all right, enough
of that, not of that, but it was like we
just had I feel like we're just trying a little
nibble on a brownie, a pot brownie. It's your morning
show with Michael del.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Chorno Mason, Wisconsin.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
I was doing a show in the early two thousand
and two thousands, and uh, we had this guy who
was originally from Chicago and he was a sponsor and
it was a rib place and I got to endorse
him on the radio and eat ribs.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
They were so good. But he did these ads.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
You know, sometimes these guys that own their own place
do the ads guys and gals. Sometimes they're really terrible
and they shouldn't do their own ads. Sometimes they're really good.
He was great because he was a super character, and
I just to this freaking day. I still do my
impersonation of him. Sometimes we talk about getting ribs or
getting me, and I go, I'm intending guy go And
then meat just fall right off of the bone'stally what
(11:04):
he would say in the commercial.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
And the meat just fall right off of the ball
the bone. That song to go with, that's what's that.
Speaker 6 (11:15):
You would have wanted to license that song to play
behind him?
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Wun you yes?
Speaker 4 (11:19):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (11:20):
And the bullet hit and then meat fall.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Off the bone. Boom bone. You just switch up the
lyrics one more time. I can't help it.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
And then meat just fall right off of the bone.

It was the funniest thing in the world. I realized, Oh,
that's a listener on the talk back budd let's hear him.
This is Blaine at KASI. Good morning, Senior Chris.
Speaker 7 (12:13):
It seems to me that perhaps the last four years
were unfortunately a part of a marijuana psychosis with the
Biden administration, or maybe it was mushrooms or something else,
and sailed actors who actually tried to screw everything up
and they went a little crazy with Uh maybe they
had the monchis when they were running the auto pen.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Anyway, you guys, have a good day.

Your previous caller forgot about that.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Have a great day.
Speaker 5 (17:13):
Smoke him if he got a March shot.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
So March, that's the former owner of the Reds. Was
she like a chain smoker or something? Ah like a
like a large March the trucker from Pebe's Big Adventure.
Speaker 5 (17:28):
And then a.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
Rasped before in a large Marge, pass me a mob.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Bro, where were we Doge?
Speaker 3 (17:38):
We're gonna talk to John Decker or White House correspondent
in a moment, but first here's what Elon Musk said
about Doge, and then I'll tell you my thoughts on it.
On the Big Beautiful Bill or maybe not so.
Speaker 5 (17:52):
And something that just rost Carolina.
Speaker 9 (17:54):
How mad do you think President Trump is going to
be when he finds out that? Elon Musk said, I'm sorry,
but I just can't stand it any weren't this MASSI about.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
Rate forageous work filled?
Speaker 6 (18:02):
Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Shame on those who voted.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
Were you know you did wrong?
Speaker 10 (18:08):
You know it?
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Look the president on this bill. Doesn't change the president's opinion.
Speaker 10 (18:13):
This is one big, beautiful bill and he's.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Sticking to it.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
A disgusting abomination.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Wow, So so you you kind of like it is
that we said there, no, can I tell you something.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
It's a little extreme the way he set up, but
he's right.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
He is right because it does not do anything to
stop the deficit, does not do anything to stop the
amount of interest that we have to pay as a
debt service. It is insane when you look at this
here we go.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
This is from the Wall Street Journal.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
Federal interest this fiscal year already will be more than
the defense budgets.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Imagine what we could do with that for our defense.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
If we had a quarter of that to add to
the defense, it would just totally blow it through the
roof in a good way.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
So that's more than the.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Defense budget and more than Medicaid, disability insurance.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
And food stamps combined. It's destroying us.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
And so it is true that it you know, I
guess you could say it's the abomination. It's disgusting because
the problem is not being fixed, it's only being grown more. Now,
I will tell you that I heard an economists.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
It's very well respected.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
I forget, Oh, David Asmin from Fox Business, he's awesome.
And then also Jerry Willis from Fox Business. They're both awesome.
They were on yesterday afternoon and Fox. I forget which show,
and I was listening to it and and and here's
what here's what they said with I think it was
Reagan the interest on the debt or the percentage of
(19:52):
the budget. I think it was an interest on the
debtor or the GDP or something. It was at six
percent and worried about six or seven percent right now,
the same level, and Reagan did all these cuts and
all these other deregulation stuff, and it went down to
three percent.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
It can happen.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
And they did indicate those through the tax cuts that
will be renewed and other stuff that it's quite possible
it might come out the same way with Reagan. But
I'm a little skeptical. I hope they're right. I do
trust them because they know a lot more than I'll
ever know. So in a moment, we're going to talk
to John Decker, our White House correspondent, about this, and
(20:29):
we have them Okay, cool, I'm sorry about that. Hey, John,
how are you, sir?
Speaker 11 (20:35):
Hey, I'm doing great, Chris, hope you're doing well today.
I'm doing very well.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
So tell me this is an abomination, the disgusting abomination.
According to Elon Musk, what's behind this all of a sudden?
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Uh oh?
Speaker 3 (20:49):
And is it affecting the relationship or is more just
a disagreement about policy.
Speaker 11 (20:54):
Well, it's a disagreement about policy. I don't know whether
it impacts the relationship between President Trump and Elon Musk.
I don't think that matters all that much at all.
What matters is whether Elon Musk will have any influence
at all in terms of what happens in the Senate
with those deficit hawks that have been reluctant to support
this bill.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Now, with Elon Musk weighing.
Speaker 11 (21:16):
In it essentially gives them cover to oppose this legislation.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
So that's that's a great point, John, And what do
you think, based on what you're hearing and your sources
as White House correspondent, what if you read the toes
or do the best you can obviously and speculating, I guess,
But where does it seem like it's going at this time,
this very moment.
Speaker 11 (21:38):
Well, the bill that passed out of the House of
Representatives by just one vote is not going to pass
the way it's structured right now in the US Senate.
It's going to look different, and so this process is going.
Speaker 10 (21:50):
To take some time. The President has.
Speaker 11 (21:52):
Talked about a July fifteenth deadline the passive bill out
of the Senate. The House Speaker has spoken about a
July fourth deadline to pass a bill out of the Senate.
I think that if a bill were to be passed
out of the bill out of the House I'm sorry,
out of the Senate by.
Speaker 5 (22:07):
Either of those dates, it will not look like.
Speaker 11 (22:09):
The bill that passed out of the House. And that
means this whole process is going to be lengthy. It
took one full year in the President's first ternament office
to pass that.
Speaker 10 (22:19):
Huge tax cut bill.
Speaker 11 (22:20):
I think we're looking at the same kind of timetable
for this bill as well.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Wow, okay, so John, that's news to me. And then
because like you said, the Senate, you know, how much
how much different do you think based on again what
you're what you're seeing and hearing, do you think it.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Might end up being than the House bill? And then what.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Happens if because the tax cuts aspire when like this year, right.
Speaker 10 (22:48):
The tax cuts expire in December.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
Of this year, that is correct, So then John, we
those tax cuts could expire for six months or a
couple of months or something.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
Huh.
Speaker 11 (22:58):
Well, look, you know, I think that that's why the
clock is ticking for the Senate to get something done.
The clock is also ticking because this dynamic of Republicans
controlling the House and the Senate, even by narrow majorities,
will not last that long. The midterm elections will be
here next year there could be some changes in terms
of the composition of both the House and the Senate.
(23:19):
So the president is working on this timetable in which
he liked to get much of his legislative agenda complete, finished,
successfully completed within this first year of his second term.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
White House correspondent John Decker, how many Senate votes does
Trump need to pass his bill, his big beautiful bill,
quote unquote, And what do you think the margins possibly
could be short by based on what.
Speaker 10 (23:46):
You're hearing, Well, the president can only afford to.
Speaker 11 (23:49):
Lose three Senate Republicans. And one Senate Republican is already
said he's not voting for this bill, and that's Ran
Paul of Kentucky. There are other Republicans that this bill
doesn't cut enough.
Speaker 10 (24:02):
Or cuts too much, So the numbers are.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Are very narrow.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
If every Democrat, as.
Speaker 11 (24:08):
Is expected, votes against this legislation, he can only afford
to lose three, and he's already lost one.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
Very interesting, And then we got the Wall Street Journal
column or a story Wall Street sounding the alarm on
US debt this time it's worth listening to interest on
the debt blowing past a trillion annually. The federal interest
this fiscal year already will be more than the defense budget,
more than Medicaid, disability and food stamps combined.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
I mean, this is crippling us, isn't it.
Speaker 11 (24:39):
Well, it's certainly not a good thing. This bill would
add three trillion dollars to the debt, and that's the
reason why you had just a handful of Republicans opposed
to it, including Congressman Massey of Kentucky opposed this legislation,
but you have more deficit hawks that exist in the Senate,
and so you know, I think that there needs to
(25:00):
be some modifications to the bill that passed out of
the House in order to win the support of those
Senate Republicans who would describe themselves as deficit hawks. They're
not going to support something that adds three trillion dollars
in debt.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
That's pretty clear.
Speaker 3 (25:17):
White House Correspondent John Decker, thank you for joining us, sir.
I think we're going to chime back in with you
a little later on the show about Ukraine. Oh and
that's what Rory. I apologize, sir. I'll see tomorrow on
the air. Okay, thanks, yes, sir, Okay, yeah, Rory is
going to join us a little later on the show
about Ukraine. Last time we did Ukraine, who was with John,
(25:37):
so I thought he'd be doing that too. Nope, Rory
is that's okay. We'll stell fun on that that's coming
up at seven fifty. There's a lot on that now
Elon Musk's doge nerd Army. These are allegations left drugs, graffiti,
roaches and rats behind them and are taking over the
Institute of Piece m By the way, the Institute Piece
(25:59):
is led by a man with this ridiculous name.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
No offense to him, but George E. Moose.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
His last name is Moose, as in, I don't know
what is the moose make noise?
Speaker 2 (26:14):
I don't know. I saw like a dying cow probably.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Uh. Anyway, just Georgie Moose. Guy tried to lock Remember
when does showed up, he tried to lock him out.
I mean it was like, this is this guy's some
you know, woke dude on the left.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Anyway.
Speaker 11 (26:31):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
And then when they took the sign down over at
the instuit a Piece and they found weapons in that building.
Remember that that's wild anyway, So these people are hostile.
This guy's hostile towards Doze and and and the Trump folk. Anyways. Uh,
they reported evidence that they found Supposedly they found marijuana roaches,
(26:54):
you know, leftover joints in the in the garbage after
dose left.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Well, look they have a picture. They could have easily.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Put that in there, right and I wouldn't put it
above anybody, or you know, beyond anybody that doesn't like
the trum administration from throwing some weed in a garbage kid.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
On the same token, maybe it is. Let's see what
we got here to say?
Speaker 3 (27:15):
Among other things, uh they found a photograph of marijuana
post it on uh PO posted by the economist reporter
Daniel Knowles. They founded the garbage after Doze left. Again,
I'm skeptical, but nonetheless they reported evidence of rats and
roaches in the building. Vermin were not a problem prior
to en Doge. Do you really think dose brought rats
(27:38):
and roaches in a month or so? Come on, they could,
but dude, these are these are like tech nerd dudes.
You think they're walking around with roaches crawling all over them?
Speaker 10 (27:49):
Prey?
Speaker 3 (27:49):
Sure, Jeff Brett, are you skeptical on that or do
you think they possibly could have really brought in rats
and cock a roaches.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
Into the in the building? Making rats great?
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Then? See, let's see how wou that making rats great again?
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Mrga Murga sounds like it's kind of a virus. Oh no,
Mrga came out of the Middle East. We're all doomed.
Speaker 6 (28:14):
Murger's here because there's no rats in Washington, DC.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Right, No, not at all.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Literally, yes, yes, and that's probably the rat capital of
of the country after New York City. Right, Oh my gosh,
good times, very very good times. And then here's one
more thing. Trump ally Lindsey Graham l Rushpo used to
call him Lindsay Graham.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Do you remember that that was great? H Lindsay Graham.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Calls out Elon Musk quote bull as the full word
after tech Titan throws his credibility under the bush. Musk
It's reposted a post from a conservative guy about supposedly
uh be ring burst for four hundred and eleven thousand
dollars of the Department of State for visits to Ukraine.
(29:06):
And so we must be tweeted this out. Why is
the bill so high? Like thinking that that that Eli
that we call it. Lindsey Graham is going to Ukraine
and stately massive five star hotels, So ELI must tweet
why is hotel bill so high? The room service must
be incredible? You got four hundred eleven thousand dollars hotel bill? Whoa,
(29:32):
those are some Hunter Biden Chateau Marmal wherever it is
numbers right, No, Lindsey Graham went nuts on that and said, no,
that's that's something with our government and something with Ukraine.
He explains it here, so he says it's a lot
more legit than five star hotels with room service.
Speaker 2 (29:52):

Speaker 2 (31:19):

Speaker 3 (31:21):
Biden, Joe Biden literally was lost in his own closet
at the White House, according to Secret Service people.
Speaker 9 (31:27):
Listen, this Secret Service whistleblower actually was assigned to Biden,
and he told me that Biden used to get lost
in his closet in the mornings in the White House.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
I mean, the guy literally.
Speaker 9 (31:40):
Stumbling around in the White House residents couldn't find his
