Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's me Michael. Your morning show has heard live
from five to eight am Central, six to nine am Eastern,
three to six am Pacific on great radio stations like
News Radio eleven ninety k EX in Portland, News Talk
five point fifty k FYI, and Phoenix, Arizona Freedom one
oh four seven in Washington, d C. We'd love to
have you join us live in the morning, even take
us along on the drive to work. But better late
(00:21):
than never. Enjoyed the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
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 Chorman.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
You know, the old days, if you loved a radio station,
you gave it a preset on your radio.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
In the car rebe you had to pull the thing
out and plug it back in.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
WLS was always number one, WCFL was always number two,
My dad Wind was number three in them. Well, now
we're digital, so if you're listening on the iHeart app,
we would love for you to make not only your
corning show and wherever you're listening to it one of
your presets, but also our podcast and you catch up
on a lot of the things that we covered earlier
this morning, really big things that kind of decode whether
(01:12):
this is rhetoric or platform for the far left. I mean,
you're seeing a shocking level of hatred and insensitivity to
death in Texas, and I'm here to tell you it's
not rhetoric. It's a platform. And they played the insurrection
card before and they'll play it again, and they're in
the midst of playing. And we really broke down what
members of Congress told Axios their constituents are demanding, which
(01:40):
is violence, blood and fighting. So I'm going to break
down my three biggest stories of the day and my
three biggest questions of the day. And remember what we
always say here at your Morning show. We don't tell
you what to think. We do give you a lot
to think about, but ultimately we trust you on your
own journey of discovery, and we think the most meaningful
(02:01):
discoveries are individual. When you're at church, you can hear
what God's revealed to a pastor, but it's not the
same as when God reveals it to you. So we
asked questions and then we trust you to arrive at
the right answer. As we are named your Morning show,
(02:23):
we prove it every day because we don't do it
without you. You are more than just a caller. This
is your show, and you take your place at the
seat at the kitchen table by using the talkback button
on your iHeartRadio app, which is where we find Bill
listening to WLAC in Nashville.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Hey, Michael, in that same interview, didn't Pambondi say that
she saw the names of victims and she was looking
at the victims' names, And I believe she mentioned that
in that same interview, so she had seen something.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Bill, did Red put you up to this call? I
was attacked by one of my producers earlier in the show. Well,
I was attacked by my audio producer by sending me
audio and distracting me during a segment, make me look
like I can't keep a train of thought.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
That was red fault too. That was Red's fault too.
Now that you mention it.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
And then Redd attacks me, all right, Listen, The point
I was making is one of the big questions yesterday,
and this is just a simple point. Don't shoot the messenger.
I have the same amount of questions as you do.
I was just simply making the point that to say, oh,
now there is no names in a black book.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
I thought the black book was on.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Pam Bondi's desk, and I went back and got the
interview from February, and all I'm saying is the directive
to investigate was on her desk, along with the directive
to investigate other things. She didn't say the black book
was on her desk. As far as the victims would go,
that's just probably part of the briefing of the case. Yes,
(04:01):
my gosh, there's fifteen documentaries on Netflix.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Alone and all the victims.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Now, you are right to wonder several things on this issue,
one of.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Which is what happened to the flight logs.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
I mean Bill Clinton had more frequent Flyer Myers on
Epstein Airlines than I have on Southwest. I know what
your suspicion is, and we don't do shows based on suspicion,
but I get suspicion. Is there enough people on the
left and the right involved in this that we have
(04:36):
to JFK and sweep it.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Under the rugs?
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Beecaining of JFK, where's that investigation? Speakining of RFK, where's
that investigation? I mean, Donald Trump has achieved a lot
of things. I did a laundry list just in our
foreign policy conversation with James Carpano. Is that another shameless
plug for the podcast? Well, you miss a lot. Who
am I looking at right now? By the way, Why
am I doing theater when they.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Can't save me? Wrong with you? Look at the camera?
Can I go one further? Michael? Oh, are you going
to start more trouble? Where is Donald Trump's investigation into
the shooting? Where's that? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (05:14):
I mean there's a why I brought this up? Was
it two weeks ago? I said, my brother, this is
my blood brother. He is actually getting kind of angry
and frustrated.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I mean, he's a.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Trump supporter who loves everything the president is doing. But
when it comes to all these investigations and justice and
people getting arrested and something to ensure that this doesn't
ever happen again, he ain't seeing anything. He's getting sick
of all of it. I think there's a there's a
growing number of that my biggest and I'm just arriving
(05:44):
at mine. I didn't I'd never really share yours read
but you you had several things that you were attacking
me with. It was banter, What a banter? But no,
But I mean, my final straw is okay. If there's
nothing on Epsteinstein wasn't blackmailing anybody. If Epstein didn't have
a flight log that mattered. If Epstein didn't have a
black book with names on it, that mattered. Why did
(06:05):
he kill himself? And why did he lead the league
in blankets? He almost suffocated in the number of blankets
he had to hang himself.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
But isn't that the compelling question?
Speaker 3 (06:25):
I mean, it's kind of like this nonsense the Democrats
are releasing now about this memo that released, and clearly
they pushed up it was part of their strategy to
do a debate before the conventions. Why some more people
would watch because you thought that would make him look
good or you wanted more people to watch to see
him bad because you had a bait and switch. It
(06:46):
doesn't make any sense to me. It doesn't make any sense.
If they didn't have anything on Epstein, why would he kill.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Himself or did he kill himself?
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Because they did have a lot on him, And now
you're not allowed to know what they have on them
because there's a lot of lame names they don't want
you to know. I don't think we're ever going to know,
and I will just say, for my own credibility's sake,
I will give you every promise made and every promise
kept by Donald Trump. But there are a mounting number
(07:19):
of promises made, and I'm thinking of cash Battel.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
I'm thinking of.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Why I blank on his name, Dan Bongino, Dan Bongino
and others who have spent years on this and now
they're in charge of.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
It and it's just gonna go away. Youngs tout Ohio.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
I want to do this like Larry Kye Young's tout
Ohio with James.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Morning, my goal and gang.
Speaker 5 (07:45):
This reminds me of Katrina when for years after the
sixty five flood they had all sorts of federal dollars
to do flood mitigation. Instead they wasted the money on
gambling and other civic projects and then blame the disaster
around Bush, just like they're trying to do in Texas
with our president. It's just unfortunate to see a red
state behave that stupidly.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Yeah, much to the well, it's not the red state.
You know, there's more to it than that. It really
isn't a red state. It's a county. And you know
it was a financial decision made. But what James is
ultimately commenting on isn't it fun to have open segments
like this? By the way, Yeah, absolutely. That doesn't sound
narcissistic saying that, but I love being with the listeners anyway.
(08:29):
Much of the left dismay President Trump was not responsible
for the natural disaster.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
That's nature, that's an act of God.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
First of all, it's the Guadalupe River in a flood alley,
and it is the worst flood in about one hundred years,
so it's one hundred year flood, but it has flooded
before eight years ago. In the aftermath, I've yet another
river flood in Texas. Hill County officials in Kirk County
debated whether or not they needed to be building a
(08:58):
better warning system. There's a series of summer camps all
along the river, often packed with children, and for years,
local officials kept them safe with a word of mouth system.
I know this sounds very sixteen hundreds, and it is.
When floodwaters started raging upriver, camp leaders would warn those
(09:19):
downriver of the water surge coming.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
But was that enough.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Officials considered supplementing the system with sirens and river gauges
along with other modern communication tools, said one Kirk County
commissioner at the time. We can do all the water
level monitoring we want, but if we don't get that
information to the public in a timely way, let alone
the middle of the night, let alone one hundred year
(09:46):
level flood. But in the end, here's the problem. Little
was done. The rural county is a little over fifty
thousand people and a part of Texas known as Flash
Flood Alley. They were contemplating installing a flood warning system
back in twenty seventeen, but it was rejected as too expensive.
(10:10):
The county's annual budget is sixty seven million dollars. They
lost out on a bid at the time to secure
a one million dollar grant to fund this project. Then
they brought it to the people, and the people local
residents were resistant. They didn't want to spend more, said
Rob Kelly, Kirk County judge. Taxpayers wouldn't pay for it. Now,
(10:34):
in no way am I suggesting, well, now, blame all
these county officials or blame these residents. But that's not
stopping left from blaming Donald Trump and again the forecasters,
independent meteorologists, former National Weather Service meteorologist All said the
(10:55):
warnings were an ample time and of ample alert for
the information they had In real time. It did end
up being more rain double the amount of inches, but
the watches were there, the warnings were there with ample time.
What this really points to is how we form immediate,
(11:17):
permanent positions without information because we're more interested in fighting
than understanding. We're more interested in taking a side than
we are understanding truth. And there's a shocking level of
hatred in the midst of a matrix, social dilemma and
Trump arrangement. But it begs the question, is this just
(11:41):
shocking level of hatred? No, if it's shocking, you've been
asleep too long. There is a drum beat towards civil war.
Oh that leads to our next story with two minutes
(12:02):
good luck, but I'll give it my best. So of
all places, Axios does the story Democrats told to get
shot for anti Trump resistance at town halls in their
(12:22):
districts and in one on one meetings with constituents and activists.
Democrat members of Congress are facing a growing drum beat
of demands to break rules, fight dirty, and not be
afraid to get hurt. They're looking for the next George Floyd.
They see a growing anger among their base. In some cases,
it's morphed into disregard for the American institutions, political traditions,
(12:44):
and even the rule of law. One constituent or one
member of Congress said, a sense of fear and despair
and anger among voters puts us in a very different
position where we can't keep following norms and decorum. For months,
lawmakers have been fuming that they're base demands them to
(13:06):
fight harder. We've got people who are desperately wanting us
to do something, said one Illinois member of Congress. Liberal
voters have angrily accosted Democrats at town halls, and in
their view, they're not doing enough to counter President Trump's agenda.
The grassroots wants more, one House Democrat told Axios. Some
of them have suggested that we really need to do.
(13:28):
What we really need to do is be willing to
get shot when visiting ice facilities in federal agencies. Our
own base is telling us that we're not What we're
doing isn't good enough, that there needs to be blood
to grab the attention of the press and the public.
It's like the Roman Coliseum. People just want more and
(13:50):
more of this spectacle. So here we have the Democrat
Party far left, in a civil war among themselves and
out of touch with the American people. A normal political
pivot would be back towards center, but they wanted to
go further left and further violent. This is one of
the top stories, is an ambush on our ice agents.
(14:14):
They in their manifesto and Time magazine February fifteenth of
twenty twenty one, it was a shadow campaign to save
the democracy. So they weaponized COVID, they harvested votes, they
stole the election, and if that hadn't worked, they were
going to create an insurrection. And they had primed you
for that with all the George Floyd, ANTIFA and BLM
violence that they called good trouble. If they played insurrect,
(14:38):
if they were willing to play insurrection in twenty twenty,
you don't think they're willing to play it again in
twenty twenty five. Is this shocking level of hate? Is
this rhetoric or is this endgame politics the kind of
violence that leads to a civil war, And the answer
(15:01):
is obvious. Mary's listening to kste and Sacramento real quick.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Good morning, Michael Hey.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
I was very happy to see Carolyn Levitt come out
yesterday and specifically name AOC as someone who should put
the reins on the violent rhetoric on that side.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
It's like pointing it out to her.
Speaker 6 (15:21):
If you want to lead your side, you know you
should get out and lead your side. But my question is,
was that a hay bartender or a girl baby girl?
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Oh, girl, baby girl, have a great day?
Speaker 3 (15:32):
So even play that was the girl baby girl. Yo.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Hi everybody, this is Dion the Wanderer.
Speaker 7 (15:42):
My morning show is your morning show with Michael dell Jorna.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Hi, it's Michael.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Your morning show can be heard live on great radio
stations across the country like wilm and w DOV and
Wilmington and Delaware or wgst AM seven twenty the Voice
in Middle Georgia.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
And we're going to need some blankets.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
News Radio six fifty k NI, Anchorage, Alaska. We'd love
to be a part of your morning routine. Now enjoy
the podcast. Thanks for bringing us along with you. This
is your morning show. Honor to serve you. I am
Michael del Jornim.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
The depth toll has risen to one hundred and four
after the catastrophic flooding in central Texas just a reminder
this and yesterday I did it. I watched a lot
of videos, I read a lot of last text messages,
and looked at a lot of pictures of small children.
It is very overwhelming, and again I just encourage you
(16:40):
that that can become overwhelming, and there's just only so
much capacity that we have as human beings for this
kind of suffering. So I encourage you to continue to
pray to a living God to make a difference in
bottling tears and being near to the broken hearted. He
can difference, so that prayer is a really good action.
(17:04):
Another to consider is Kirk County Flood Relief Fund. This
is going to flood relief fund and it goes to
all the vetted local organizations involved in rescue, relief and
recovery efforts, flood assistance programs for displaced families and individuals,
and rebuilding efforts in the hardest hit areas. You can
make your donations at community Foundation dot net Community foundation
(17:28):
dot net. It will go directly to trusted local organizations
and all of us at iHeart are supporting this relief effort.
So perfectly considered giving Meanwhile, the Prime Minister bb that
Yahoo made the announcement that Donald Trump has been nominated
for a Nobel Peace Prize, and the President made the
announcement with the US.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Will be sending more weapons to Ukraine.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Some of the top stories waking up this morning, the
news out of Texas even more tragic. By the hour,
we expected the death toll to rise and with a
dozens still missing. Roy O'Neil, our national correspondent, is here
that we suspect it will rise even more.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Good morning, Rory, Yeah.
Speaker 8 (18:03):
Good morning, and you know, realistically, search and rescue operations
are transitioning to recovery operations. Days after those flood waters rose.
We still have ten people missing from that Camp Mystic,
as well as one of the counselors there. And the
depth to all one hundred and five across six counties.
Now as we understand that this flood is really affecting
(18:25):
a large part of central Texas.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
You know, here's the number that I came across this morning.
We talked yesterday about that twenty six year old rescue
worker who single handedly was responsible, but like one hundred
and eighty six rescues, which is breathtaking. There have been
eight hundred and fifty rescues so far to count, and
just as I explained to the listeners, when I got
(18:49):
up this morning, it said over one hundred people now
confirmed dead. I didn't like that, so I changed it
to the number that we have, which is one hundred
and four, because every one of those lives matter so much,
and some of the lives that were saved mattered, and
the lives that were risked to save them. And I
don't know, it's just it's significant to note for eight
hundred and fifty rescued, one hundred and four now gone
(19:11):
and doesn't still missing. All these numbers matter, and when
you watch some of the videos, I mean literally the
life risking efforts to save life. It's a silver lining
in this story.
Speaker 8 (19:27):
And how frantic everything was and how so many people
were caught off guard because for many communities, the flood
impact happened in the middle of the night, and just
the panic that followed as there was a lot of confusion.
People didn't even have this as a possible event. But
we now know that this area of floods rather frequently,
(19:49):
of course not to this scale.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
That's what's been different.
Speaker 8 (19:52):
So that's why there are so many questions about warnings
and how we can.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
Do better to prevent this kind of tragedy in the future.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
Yeah, I was a little shocked at the story we
did earlier. And I say that because I'm not from
I don't know that you're familiar with it. But it
was a New York Times story and it kind of
walks you through how the local leaders knew this was
a flood alley. They knew they had a system where
people upstream would warn camp counselors downstream, which seems quite
(20:24):
antiquated now there's still the watches and warnings, but this
hit in the middle of the night. It ended up
being one hundred year level flood and it was rapid.
People could have had their phones off, may not have
had cell service. I mean, it was just a perfect
storm of how the Swiss Cheese aligns. But the notion
that they had a system like this, we're thinking about
(20:45):
adding an alarm system, but they didn't get a million
dollar grant, and then the voters voted against spending it.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
You know, that's just all new information.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
But to add to that, the Lieutenant governor I believe
in Texas said, if local doesn't do it, now the
state's going to step in and get a better warning system.
There's just too many people that use this area to camp.
I guess I'm one of the few people that thinks,
let's find a different area too. Maybe I don't know
to camp well. Well, right, and that's part of it
(21:14):
as well. What should those camps look like in the future.
What other reinforcements do they need if they're going to
be there along that river which is normally quite tranquil,
but again we've seen these flooding incidents.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Probably at least can be more free.
Speaker 8 (21:31):
And again not to the scale, but this is an
area that is known to have these kinds of flash floods,
but typically it's in the two three foot range, not
in the twenty thirty foot range.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
So many lives, so many children, it's just devastating. All right.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
I've been sitting here wrecking my brain all day and
I can't think of anything I need. I mean, I
kind of want to set amount shaft putter, but that's
about all I can think of. But it's Prime days,
And if you're thinking of buying Today's a day, what
are the best bargains?
Speaker 8 (22:02):
Yeah, we do know that Prime days run today through
the eleventh and a lot of criticism that there ain't
the bargains that used to be. But just remember, a
lot of third party vendors sell through Amazon, so oftentimes
when you're buying stuff, you're not buying it from Amazon,
you're buying it from a third party. So what we're
seeing more of is that a lot of those third
parties were jacking up their prices, saved in April, even
(22:25):
doubling the prices up some goods, and now for Prime Days, surprise, surprise,
they're being cut fifty percent. So it looks like fifty
percent off, but you're really just paying what you should
have bought in April. If it's a big, high end
item that's going to cost you a few hundred bucks,
maybe do some history price history checking our websites out
there that will go back show you the full price
history of an item to let you know if you're
(22:47):
really getting a bargain. Keep a camel, Camel, Camel, and
honey are three of the biggest that's keep it with
an APN Camel, Camel, camel, and honey.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Put the item in there. You can copy the URL
from Amazon on put the item in there.
Speaker 8 (23:01):
It'll give you the full price history to let you
know if you're really getting a bargain.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Ah, that old Chestnut Rory was some great tips.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
You know what, I can't think of anything I need,
and just because they're having this event, I'm not going
to find something I need, So I know I'm going
to get a discount. I'm not shopping. But for those
of you are words from wisdom from Roy O'Neal. Great reporting.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
It's your Morning show with Michael del.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Churno, Israeli Prime Minister bb Net and Yah, who is
nominating President Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize.
Speaker 7 (23:31):
You announced the nomination and a dinner at the White House,
saying Trump is pursuing peace and security in many lands,
especially in the Middle East. I want to present to you,
as President the letter I sent to the Nobel Prize Committee.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
It's nominating you for the Peace Prize, which is well deserved.
Speaker 7 (23:47):
He told the President he had sent a letter to
the Nobel Prize Committee and that he should win. Trump
thank the Israeli Prime Minister and said the nomination is
very meaningful coming from Net and Yahoo.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Mark Mayfield, a number of medical organizations are suing Health
and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior and his
agency over vaccine recommendations.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
The suit was filed Monday in federal court.
Speaker 9 (24:08):
It comes after Kennedy fired all members of a vaccine
panel and polled recommendations that children and pregnant women get
a COVID vaccine. The suit, once at recommendation reinstated, arguing
that its removal will cost lives. Some of the groups
involved in the suit include the American Public Health Association,
the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the American College of Physicians.

In a yet to be peer reviewed study out of Australia,
researchers found that people who slept near the brightest lights
had the highest risk of heart failure, heart attacks, and stroke.
They theorized that the light disrupts Ir katiean rhythm, leading

Romans are the reason the world eats them as they
spread the joy to others. They're good in jam over
cereal and there's even raspberry wine. They belong to the

have magical powers and contain horses and shortened labor, but
neither has been scientifically proven. I'm bree tennis.

We're so glad you were born and thanks for making
your morning show a part of your big day. One
last final story. Elon Musk is calling out President Trump
for the same things that Red's been calling out President
Trump and others on.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Failing to make any arrest related to Jeffrey Epstein's case.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
The former Trump ally turned critic took to x and
posted the official Jeffrey Epstein pedophile arrest counter set to
zero zero zero zero with the caption what's the time?
Oh look, it's no one's been arrested a clock again.
Musk post came after multiple reports. Multiple reports said the
Justice Department in the FBI concluded there is no evidence
(27:40):
Epstein blackmailed powerful figures or kept a client list, and
it also suggested no one else involved in the Epstein
case will be charged. The tech billionaire has previously called
out Trump over the case during their public feud last month,
when he implied the president, we'll never get to the
bottom of the Epstein files, and the reason that will
never be made public is because he's in them. What
(28:04):
did Tesla lose yesterday? I don't know what the final
tally was, but obviously Elon Musk not coming to his
senses anytime soon.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
A bunch, a bunch, a technical a bunch.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Speaking of a bunch, it's been a bunch of time
since we've had John Decker, our White House correspondent. He
was busy abroad covering a summit, and then finally got
some time to rest and I suspect play some tennis,
and he's back to talk to us about the president
firing off his tariff letters as the deadline looms.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Good morning, John, and welcome back. Hey.
Speaker 14 (28:36):
It's good to be back with you.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Michael.
Speaker 14 (28:38):
Good to hear your voice and talk to you about
the president and his cabinet meeting that'll.
Speaker 15 (28:43):
Have a little bit later this morning. We may get.
Speaker 14 (28:45):
Further guidance from him concerning possible.
Speaker 15 (28:48):
Trade deals announced in the next few days, the next
few weeks.
Speaker 14 (28:51):
Because there really haven't been all that many. You know,
we were promised at one point from some in the
administration ninety.
Speaker 15 (28:58):
Trade deals in ninety days, and we haven't reached anywhere
near that number.
Speaker 14 (29:02):
So the President putting some pressure on a number of
our trading partners to reach trade deals or higher trade
tariffs would go into effect.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
We know what those numbers are.
Speaker 14 (29:13):
Twenty five percent tariffs on goods coming from Japan, twenty
five percent tariffs on goods coming from South Korea. That
certainly will impact those countries in a very negative fashion.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Well, one thing you got to say about the President,
he has very transparent and open department head meetings and
cabinet meetings, and so there'll be a lot of questions.
I suspect these letters will be one of the questions,
probably another one. Do you think there'll be some questions
on Epstein and how so much was anticipated and expected
only to get a Monday morning quick little Oh by
(29:49):
the way, there's nothing here, move along.
Speaker 14 (29:51):
Yeah, I do expect that. I mean, it seems to me,
you know, that we were promised by.
Speaker 15 (29:57):
The Attorney General, Pam Bondi and.
Speaker 14 (30:00):
Paricular, something very specific in several interviews that she did
in terms of information that she said that the DOJ
had regarding Epstein, and we didn't get that, you know,
and we as you point out, a statement coming out
from the Department of Justice and the FBI yesterday saying
you know, nothing to see here, move on, And that
(30:21):
is I think disappointed some people who were expecting to
see something very specific coming from the Trump administration in
their transparency concerning what happened with Epstein.
Speaker 3 (30:35):
I remember after the twenty twenty election, being promised the
Kraken was going to appear, that kracking never happened. I
went back and I played the February interview with Fox
with Pam Bondi and after reviewing that, After reviewing that,
I actually think that was kind of a misunderstanding. I
think the directive is what she was referring to on
(30:57):
her desk, not the black book. But when you go
with Cash Patel, Dan Bongino, Pam Bondi and the totality
of everything that they have said and promised, I can
give you a laundry list of things Donald Trump promised
and promises kept and great achievements. But there's been a
lot of promises and investigations and I can't think of
any of them that have come through, from JFK to.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
RFK to this to Martin Luther King Jammer as well.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
You know.
Speaker 14 (31:28):
So look, you know, I think that you're right about.
Speaker 15 (31:31):
All of that, you know, And that's.
Speaker 14 (31:33):
The reason why I think that there will be some
questions not only on trade and what the status of
that is, but certainly on this issue, which the administration
resurrected with the statement that they put out yesterday.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Michael that and what a strange situation this Elon Musk
has turned into and he's back at it again now
trying to start a third party. You wonder there'll be
some questions about that and boy did he dried the
knife in on Epstein on X yesterday.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Do you even know what to make of this whole situation.
Speaker 14 (32:08):
Yeah, I don't know what to make of it either,
you know. I mean, obviously it's hard to believe to
a certain extent, think about where the relationship was between
Trump and Musk last year at this time, as the
President was running for the White House, they were inseparable.
Speaker 15 (32:24):
You know, the Elon.
Speaker 14 (32:25):
Musk spent two hundred and fifty million dollars plus of
his own money to try to get Donald Trump elected.
And here we are a year later, and they are mortal,
it seems, mortal enemies with each other.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
It's just really remarkable. Michael John, so great to have
you back. You were very very very very missed. But
that was rest you very very much earned.
Speaker 14 (32:47):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 15 (32:48):
Good to be with you. And we'll talk tomorrow for sure.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
Thanks Michael, you got it.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
You know, the Elon muskling is just it doesn't make
any sense for his business. You know, in the end,
he's going to have the Left hate them, and they've
already been targeting Tesla dealerships in Tesla vehicles or selling
theirs and now attacking the president.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
It's not easy to start a party.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
There's a reason why they're you know, Republican Party was
the last new party.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
But he's obviously not going to back off.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
And that's quite the double down yesterday on the EPs steam.
So we'll keep an eye on that big, big cabinet
meeting today and a lot of Q and a John
Deck will be there. He'll be asking some of the questions.
We'll get you some of the answers tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michaelpenhild Jo No
Hey, it's me Michael. Your morning show has heard live
from five to eight am Central, six to nine am Eastern,
three to six am Pacific on great radio stations like
News Radio eleven ninety k EX in Portland, News Talk
five point fifty k FYI, and Phoenix, Arizona Freedom one
oh four seven in Washington, d C. We'd love to
have you join us live in the morning, even take
us along on the drive to work. But better late
(00:21):
than never. Enjoyed the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
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 Chorman.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
You know, the old days, if you loved a radio station,
you gave it a preset on your radio.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
In the car rebe you had to pull the thing
out and plug it back in.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
WLS was always number one, WCFL was always number two,
My dad Wind was number three in them. Well, now
we're digital, so if you're listening on the iHeart app,
we would love for you to make not only your
corning show and wherever you're listening to it one of
your presets, but also our podcast and you catch up
on a lot of the things that we covered earlier
this morning, really big things that kind of decode whether
(01:12):
this is rhetoric or platform for the far left. I mean,
you're seeing a shocking level of hatred and insensitivity to
death in Texas, and I'm here to tell you it's
not rhetoric. It's a platform. And they played the insurrection
card before and they'll play it again, and they're in
the midst of playing. And we really broke down what
members of Congress told Axios their constituents are demanding, which
(01:40):
is violence, blood and fighting. So I'm going to break
down my three biggest stories of the day and my
three biggest questions of the day. And remember what we
always say here at your Morning show. We don't tell
you what to think. We do give you a lot
to think about, but ultimately we trust you on your
own journey of discovery, and we think the most meaningful
(02:01):
discoveries are individual. When you're at church, you can hear
what God's revealed to a pastor, but it's not the
same as when God reveals it to you. So we
asked questions and then we trust you to arrive at
the right answer. As we are named your Morning show,
(02:23):
we prove it every day because we don't do it
without you. You are more than just a caller. This
is your show, and you take your place at the
seat at the kitchen table by using the talkback button
on your iHeartRadio app, which is where we find Bill
listening to WLAC in Nashville.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Hey, Michael, in that same interview, didn't Pambondi say that
she saw the names of victims and she was looking
at the victims' names, And I believe she mentioned that
in that same interview, so she had seen something.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Bill, did Red put you up to this call? I
was attacked by one of my producers earlier in the show. Well,
I was attacked by my audio producer by sending me
audio and distracting me during a segment, make me look
like I can't keep a train of thought.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
That was red fault too. That was Red's fault too.
Now that you mention it.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
And then Redd attacks me, all right, Listen, The point
I was making is one of the big questions yesterday,
and this is just a simple point. Don't shoot the messenger.
I have the same amount of questions as you do.
I was just simply making the point that to say, oh,
now there is no names in a black book.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
I thought the black book was on.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Pam Bondi's desk, and I went back and got the
interview from February, and all I'm saying is the directive
to investigate was on her desk, along with the directive
to investigate other things. She didn't say the black book
was on her desk. As far as the victims would go,
that's just probably part of the briefing of the case. Yes,
(04:01):
my gosh, there's fifteen documentaries on Netflix.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Alone and all the victims.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Now, you are right to wonder several things on this issue,
one of.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Which is what happened to the flight logs.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
I mean Bill Clinton had more frequent Flyer Myers on
Epstein Airlines than I have on Southwest. I know what
your suspicion is, and we don't do shows based on suspicion,
but I get suspicion. Is there enough people on the
left and the right involved in this that we have
(04:36):
to JFK and sweep it.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Under the rugs?
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Beecaining of JFK, where's that investigation? Speakining of RFK, where's
that investigation? I mean, Donald Trump has achieved a lot
of things. I did a laundry list just in our
foreign policy conversation with James Carpano. Is that another shameless
plug for the podcast? Well, you miss a lot. Who
am I looking at right now? By the way, Why
am I doing theater when they.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Can't save me? Wrong with you? Look at the camera?
Can I go one further? Michael? Oh, are you going
to start more trouble? Where is Donald Trump's investigation into
the shooting? Where's that? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (05:14):
I mean there's a why I brought this up? Was
it two weeks ago? I said, my brother, this is
my blood brother. He is actually getting kind of angry
and frustrated.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I mean, he's a.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Trump supporter who loves everything the president is doing. But
when it comes to all these investigations and justice and
people getting arrested and something to ensure that this doesn't
ever happen again, he ain't seeing anything. He's getting sick
of all of it. I think there's a there's a
growing number of that my biggest and I'm just arriving
(05:44):
at mine. I didn't I'd never really share yours read
but you you had several things that you were attacking
me with. It was banter, What a banter? But no,
But I mean, my final straw is okay. If there's
nothing on Epsteinstein wasn't blackmailing anybody. If Epstein didn't have
a flight log that mattered. If Epstein didn't have a
black book with names on it, that mattered. Why did
(06:05):
he kill himself? And why did he lead the league
in blankets? He almost suffocated in the number of blankets
he had to hang himself.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
But isn't that the compelling question?
Speaker 3 (06:25):
I mean, it's kind of like this nonsense the Democrats
are releasing now about this memo that released, and clearly
they pushed up it was part of their strategy to
do a debate before the conventions. Why some more people
would watch because you thought that would make him look
good or you wanted more people to watch to see
him bad because you had a bait and switch. It
(06:46):
doesn't make any sense to me. It doesn't make any sense.
If they didn't have anything on Epstein, why would he kill.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Himself or did he kill himself?
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Because they did have a lot on him, And now
you're not allowed to know what they have on them
because there's a lot of lame names they don't want
you to know. I don't think we're ever going to know,
and I will just say, for my own credibility's sake,
I will give you every promise made and every promise
kept by Donald Trump. But there are a mounting number
(07:19):
of promises made, and I'm thinking of cash Battel.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
I'm thinking of.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Why I blank on his name, Dan Bongino, Dan Bongino
and others who have spent years on this and now
they're in charge of.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
It and it's just gonna go away. Youngs tout Ohio.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
I want to do this like Larry Kye Young's tout
Ohio with James.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Morning, my goal and gang.
Speaker 5 (07:45):
This reminds me of Katrina when for years after the
sixty five flood they had all sorts of federal dollars
to do flood mitigation. Instead they wasted the money on
gambling and other civic projects and then blame the disaster
around Bush, just like they're trying to do in Texas
with our president. It's just unfortunate to see a red
state behave that stupidly.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Yeah, much to the well, it's not the red state.
You know, there's more to it than that. It really
isn't a red state. It's a county. And you know
it was a financial decision made. But what James is
ultimately commenting on isn't it fun to have open segments
like this? By the way, Yeah, absolutely. That doesn't sound
narcissistic saying that, but I love being with the listeners anyway.
(08:29):
Much of the left dismay President Trump was not responsible
for the natural disaster.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
That's nature, that's an act of God.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
First of all, it's the Guadalupe River in a flood alley,
and it is the worst flood in about one hundred years,
so it's one hundred year flood, but it has flooded
before eight years ago. In the aftermath, I've yet another
river flood in Texas. Hill County officials in Kirk County
debated whether or not they needed to be building a
(08:58):
better warning system. There's a series of summer camps all
along the river, often packed with children, and for years,
local officials kept them safe with a word of mouth system.
I know this sounds very sixteen hundreds, and it is.
When floodwaters started raging upriver, camp leaders would warn those
(09:19):
downriver of the water surge coming.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
But was that enough.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Officials considered supplementing the system with sirens and river gauges
along with other modern communication tools, said one Kirk County
commissioner at the time. We can do all the water
level monitoring we want, but if we don't get that
information to the public in a timely way, let alone
the middle of the night, let alone one hundred year
(09:46):
level flood. But in the end, here's the problem. Little
was done. The rural county is a little over fifty
thousand people and a part of Texas known as Flash
Flood Alley. They were contemplating installing a flood warning system
back in twenty seventeen, but it was rejected as too expensive.
(10:10):
The county's annual budget is sixty seven million dollars. They
lost out on a bid at the time to secure
a one million dollar grant to fund this project. Then
they brought it to the people, and the people local
residents were resistant. They didn't want to spend more, said
Rob Kelly, Kirk County judge. Taxpayers wouldn't pay for it. Now,
(10:34):
in no way am I suggesting, well, now, blame all
these county officials or blame these residents. But that's not
stopping left from blaming Donald Trump and again the forecasters,
independent meteorologists, former National Weather Service meteorologist All said the
(10:55):
warnings were an ample time and of ample alert for
the information they had In real time. It did end
up being more rain double the amount of inches, but
the watches were there, the warnings were there with ample time.
What this really points to is how we form immediate,
(11:17):
permanent positions without information because we're more interested in fighting
than understanding. We're more interested in taking a side than
we are understanding truth. And there's a shocking level of
hatred in the midst of a matrix, social dilemma and
Trump arrangement. But it begs the question, is this just
(11:41):
shocking level of hatred? No, if it's shocking, you've been
asleep too long. There is a drum beat towards civil war.
Oh that leads to our next story with two minutes
(12:02):
good luck, but I'll give it my best. So of
all places, Axios does the story Democrats told to get
shot for anti Trump resistance at town halls in their
(12:22):
districts and in one on one meetings with constituents and activists.
Democrat members of Congress are facing a growing drum beat
of demands to break rules, fight dirty, and not be
afraid to get hurt. They're looking for the next George Floyd.
They see a growing anger among their base. In some cases,
it's morphed into disregard for the American institutions, political traditions,
(12:44):
and even the rule of law. One constituent or one
member of Congress said, a sense of fear and despair
and anger among voters puts us in a very different
position where we can't keep following norms and decorum. For months,
lawmakers have been fuming that they're base demands them to
(13:06):
fight harder. We've got people who are desperately wanting us
to do something, said one Illinois member of Congress. Liberal
voters have angrily accosted Democrats at town halls, and in
their view, they're not doing enough to counter President Trump's agenda.
The grassroots wants more, one House Democrat told Axios. Some
of them have suggested that we really need to do.
(13:28):
What we really need to do is be willing to
get shot when visiting ice facilities in federal agencies. Our
own base is telling us that we're not What we're
doing isn't good enough, that there needs to be blood
to grab the attention of the press and the public.
It's like the Roman Coliseum. People just want more and
(13:50):
more of this spectacle. So here we have the Democrat
Party far left, in a civil war among themselves and
out of touch with the American people. A normal political
pivot would be back towards center, but they wanted to
go further left and further violent. This is one of
the top stories, is an ambush on our ice agents.
(14:14):
They in their manifesto and Time magazine February fifteenth of
twenty twenty one, it was a shadow campaign to save
the democracy. So they weaponized COVID, they harvested votes, they
stole the election, and if that hadn't worked, they were
going to create an insurrection. And they had primed you
for that with all the George Floyd, ANTIFA and BLM
violence that they called good trouble. If they played insurrect,
(14:38):
if they were willing to play insurrection in twenty twenty,
you don't think they're willing to play it again in
twenty twenty five. Is this shocking level of hate? Is
this rhetoric or is this endgame politics the kind of
violence that leads to a civil war, And the answer
(15:01):
is obvious. Mary's listening to kste and Sacramento real quick.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Good morning, Michael Hey.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
I was very happy to see Carolyn Levitt come out
yesterday and specifically name AOC as someone who should put
the reins on the violent rhetoric on that side.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
It's like pointing it out to her.
Speaker 6 (15:21):
If you want to lead your side, you know you
should get out and lead your side. But my question is,
was that a hay bartender or a girl baby girl?
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Oh, girl, baby girl, have a great day?
Speaker 3 (15:32):
So even play that was the girl baby girl. Yo.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Hi everybody, this is Dion the Wanderer.
Speaker 7 (15:42):
My morning show is your morning show with Michael dell Jorna.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Hi, it's Michael.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Your morning show can be heard live on great radio
stations across the country like wilm and w DOV and
Wilmington and Delaware or wgst AM seven twenty the Voice
in Middle Georgia.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
And we're going to need some blankets.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
News Radio six fifty k NI, Anchorage, Alaska. We'd love
to be a part of your morning routine. Now enjoy
the podcast. Thanks for bringing us along with you. This
is your morning show. Honor to serve you. I am
Michael del Jornim.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
The depth toll has risen to one hundred and four
after the catastrophic flooding in central Texas just a reminder
this and yesterday I did it. I watched a lot
of videos, I read a lot of last text messages,
and looked at a lot of pictures of small children.
It is very overwhelming, and again I just encourage you
(16:40):
that that can become overwhelming, and there's just only so
much capacity that we have as human beings for this
kind of suffering. So I encourage you to continue to
pray to a living God to make a difference in
bottling tears and being near to the broken hearted. He
can difference, so that prayer is a really good action.
(17:04):
Another to consider is Kirk County Flood Relief Fund. This
is going to flood relief fund and it goes to
all the vetted local organizations involved in rescue, relief and
recovery efforts, flood assistance programs for displaced families and individuals,
and rebuilding efforts in the hardest hit areas. You can
make your donations at community Foundation dot net Community foundation
(17:28):
dot net. It will go directly to trusted local organizations
and all of us at iHeart are supporting this relief effort.
So perfectly considered giving Meanwhile, the Prime Minister bb that
Yahoo made the announcement that Donald Trump has been nominated
for a Nobel Peace Prize, and the President made the
announcement with the US.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Will be sending more weapons to Ukraine.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Some of the top stories waking up this morning, the
news out of Texas even more tragic. By the hour,
we expected the death toll to rise and with a
dozens still missing. Roy O'Neil, our national correspondent, is here
that we suspect it will rise even more.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Good morning, Rory, Yeah.
Speaker 8 (18:03):
Good morning, and you know, realistically, search and rescue operations
are transitioning to recovery operations. Days after those flood waters rose.
We still have ten people missing from that Camp Mystic,
as well as one of the counselors there. And the
depth to all one hundred and five across six counties.
Now as we understand that this flood is really affecting
(18:25):
a large part of central Texas.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
You know, here's the number that I came across this morning.
We talked yesterday about that twenty six year old rescue
worker who single handedly was responsible, but like one hundred
and eighty six rescues, which is breathtaking. There have been
eight hundred and fifty rescues so far to count, and
just as I explained to the listeners, when I got
(18:49):
up this morning, it said over one hundred people now
confirmed dead. I didn't like that, so I changed it
to the number that we have, which is one hundred
and four, because every one of those lives matter so much,
and some of the lives that were saved mattered, and
the lives that were risked to save them. And I
don't know, it's just it's significant to note for eight
hundred and fifty rescued, one hundred and four now gone
(19:11):
and doesn't still missing. All these numbers matter, and when
you watch some of the videos, I mean literally the
life risking efforts to save life. It's a silver lining
in this story.
Speaker 8 (19:27):
And how frantic everything was and how so many people
were caught off guard because for many communities, the flood
impact happened in the middle of the night, and just
the panic that followed as there was a lot of confusion.
People didn't even have this as a possible event. But
we now know that this area of floods rather frequently,
(19:49):
of course not to this scale.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
That's what's been different.
Speaker 8 (19:52):
So that's why there are so many questions about warnings
and how we can.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
Do better to prevent this kind of tragedy in the future.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
Yeah, I was a little shocked at the story we
did earlier. And I say that because I'm not from
I don't know that you're familiar with it. But it
was a New York Times story and it kind of
walks you through how the local leaders knew this was
a flood alley. They knew they had a system where
people upstream would warn camp counselors downstream, which seems quite
(20:24):
antiquated now there's still the watches and warnings, but this
hit in the middle of the night. It ended up
being one hundred year level flood and it was rapid.
People could have had their phones off, may not have
had cell service. I mean, it was just a perfect
storm of how the Swiss Cheese aligns. But the notion
that they had a system like this, we're thinking about
(20:45):
adding an alarm system, but they didn't get a million
dollar grant, and then the voters voted against spending it.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
You know, that's just all new information.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
But to add to that, the Lieutenant governor I believe
in Texas said, if local doesn't do it, now the
state's going to step in and get a better warning system.
There's just too many people that use this area to camp.
I guess I'm one of the few people that thinks,
let's find a different area too. Maybe I don't know
to camp well. Well, right, and that's part of it
(21:14):
as well. What should those camps look like in the future.
What other reinforcements do they need if they're going to
be there along that river which is normally quite tranquil,
but again we've seen these flooding incidents.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Probably at least can be more free.
Speaker 8 (21:31):
And again not to the scale, but this is an
area that is known to have these kinds of flash floods,
but typically it's in the two three foot range, not
in the twenty thirty foot range.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
So many lives, so many children, it's just devastating. All right.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
I've been sitting here wrecking my brain all day and
I can't think of anything I need. I mean, I
kind of want to set amount shaft putter, but that's
about all I can think of. But it's Prime days,
And if you're thinking of buying Today's a day, what
are the best bargains?
Speaker 8 (22:02):
Yeah, we do know that Prime days run today through
the eleventh and a lot of criticism that there ain't
the bargains that used to be. But just remember, a
lot of third party vendors sell through Amazon, so oftentimes
when you're buying stuff, you're not buying it from Amazon,
you're buying it from a third party. So what we're
seeing more of is that a lot of those third
parties were jacking up their prices, saved in April, even
(22:25):
doubling the prices up some goods, and now for Prime Days, surprise, surprise,
they're being cut fifty percent. So it looks like fifty
percent off, but you're really just paying what you should
have bought in April. If it's a big, high end
item that's going to cost you a few hundred bucks,
maybe do some history price history checking our websites out
there that will go back show you the full price
history of an item to let you know if you're
(22:47):
really getting a bargain. Keep a camel, Camel, Camel, and
honey are three of the biggest that's keep it with
an APN Camel, Camel, camel, and honey.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Put the item in there. You can copy the URL
from Amazon on put the item in there.
Speaker 8 (23:01):
It'll give you the full price history to let you
know if you're really getting a bargain.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Ah, that old Chestnut Rory was some great tips.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
You know what, I can't think of anything I need,
and just because they're having this event, I'm not going
to find something I need, So I know I'm going
to get a discount. I'm not shopping. But for those
of you are words from wisdom from Roy O'Neal. Great reporting.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
It's your Morning show with Michael del.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Churno, Israeli Prime Minister bb Net and Yah, who is
nominating President Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize.
Speaker 7 (23:31):
You announced the nomination and a dinner at the White House,
saying Trump is pursuing peace and security in many lands,
especially in the Middle East. I want to present to you,
as President the letter I sent to the Nobel Prize Committee.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
It's nominating you for the Peace Prize, which is well deserved.
Speaker 7 (23:47):
He told the President he had sent a letter to
the Nobel Prize Committee and that he should win. Trump
thank the Israeli Prime Minister and said the nomination is
very meaningful coming from Net and Yahoo.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Mark Mayfield, a number of medical organizations are suing Health
and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior and his
agency over vaccine recommendations.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
The suit was filed Monday in federal court.
Speaker 9 (24:08):
It comes after Kennedy fired all members of a vaccine
panel and polled recommendations that children and pregnant women get
a COVID vaccine. The suit, once at recommendation reinstated, arguing
that its removal will cost lives. Some of the groups
involved in the suit include the American Public Health Association,
the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the American College of Physicians.

Well, it turns out sleeping with the lights on could
increase your chance of heart disease.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Long is that?
Speaker 12 (25:33):
In a yet to be peer reviewed study out of Australia,
researchers found that people who slept near the brightest lights
had the highest risk of heart failure, heart attacks, and stroke.
They theorized that the light disrupts Ir katiean rhythm, leading
the possible adverse effects. I'm Michael Kassner. Imagine what leaving
the television on? Well, that explains a lot of my dreams.

Today is National Raspberry Day. Pree tennis with more on
the tiny fruit you should try to make an effort
to eat today.
Speaker 13 (26:03):
We've been nibbling on raspberry since the fourth century. The
Romans are the reason the world eats them as they
spread the joy to others. They're good in jam over
cereal and there's even raspberry wine. They belong to the
Rose family, come in four colors, and some believe they
have magical powers and contain horses and shortened labor, but
neither has been scientifically proven. I'm bree tennis.

Houston is seventy four. If it's your birthday, Happy birthday.
We're so glad you were born and thanks for making
your morning show a part of your big day. One
last final story. Elon Musk is calling out President Trump
for the same things that Red's been calling out President
Trump and others on.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Failing to make any arrest related to Jeffrey Epstein's case.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
The former Trump ally turned critic took to x and
posted the official Jeffrey Epstein pedophile arrest counter set to
zero zero zero zero with the caption what's the time?
Oh look, it's no one's been arrested a clock again.
Musk post came after multiple reports. Multiple reports said the
Justice Department in the FBI concluded there is no evidence
(27:40):
Epstein blackmailed powerful figures or kept a client list, and
it also suggested no one else involved in the Epstein
case will be charged. The tech billionaire has previously called
out Trump over the case during their public feud last month,
when he implied the president, we'll never get to the
bottom of the Epstein files, and the reason that will
never be made public is because he's in them. What
(28:04):
did Tesla lose yesterday? I don't know what the final
tally was, but obviously Elon Musk not coming to his
senses anytime soon.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
A bunch, a bunch, a technical a bunch.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Speaking of a bunch, it's been a bunch of time
since we've had John Decker, our White House correspondent. He
was busy abroad covering a summit, and then finally got
some time to rest and I suspect play some tennis,
and he's back to talk to us about the president
firing off his tariff letters as the deadline looms.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Good morning, John, and welcome back. Hey.
Speaker 14 (28:36):
It's good to be back with you.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Michael.
Speaker 14 (28:38):
Good to hear your voice and talk to you about
the president and his cabinet meeting that'll.
Speaker 15 (28:43):
Have a little bit later this morning. We may get.
Speaker 14 (28:45):
Further guidance from him concerning possible.
Speaker 15 (28:48):
Trade deals announced in the next few days, the next
few weeks.
Speaker 14 (28:51):
Because there really haven't been all that many. You know,
we were promised at one point from some in the
administration ninety.
Speaker 15 (28:58):
Trade deals in ninety days, and we haven't reached anywhere
near that number.
Speaker 14 (29:02):
So the President putting some pressure on a number of
our trading partners to reach trade deals or higher trade
tariffs would go into effect.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
We know what those numbers are.
Speaker 14 (29:13):
Twenty five percent tariffs on goods coming from Japan, twenty
five percent tariffs on goods coming from South Korea. That
certainly will impact those countries in a very negative fashion.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Well, one thing you got to say about the President,
he has very transparent and open department head meetings and
cabinet meetings, and so there'll be a lot of questions.
I suspect these letters will be one of the questions,
probably another one. Do you think there'll be some questions
on Epstein and how so much was anticipated and expected
only to get a Monday morning quick little Oh by
(29:49):
the way, there's nothing here, move along.
Speaker 14 (29:51):
Yeah, I do expect that. I mean, it seems to me,
you know, that we were promised by.
Speaker 15 (29:57):
The Attorney General, Pam Bondi and.
Speaker 14 (30:00):
Paricular, something very specific in several interviews that she did
in terms of information that she said that the DOJ
had regarding Epstein, and we didn't get that, you know,
and we as you point out, a statement coming out
from the Department of Justice and the FBI yesterday saying
you know, nothing to see here, move on, And that
(30:21):
is I think disappointed some people who were expecting to
see something very specific coming from the Trump administration in
their transparency concerning what happened with Epstein.
Speaker 3 (30:35):
I remember after the twenty twenty election, being promised the
Kraken was going to appear, that kracking never happened. I
went back and I played the February interview with Fox
with Pam Bondi and after reviewing that, After reviewing that,
I actually think that was kind of a misunderstanding. I
think the directive is what she was referring to on
(30:57):
her desk, not the black book. But when you go
with Cash Patel, Dan Bongino, Pam Bondi and the totality
of everything that they have said and promised, I can
give you a laundry list of things Donald Trump promised
and promises kept and great achievements. But there's been a
lot of promises and investigations and I can't think of
any of them that have come through, from JFK to.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
RFK to this to Martin Luther King Jammer as well.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
You know.
Speaker 14 (31:28):
So look, you know, I think that you're right about.
Speaker 15 (31:31):
All of that, you know, And that's.
Speaker 14 (31:33):
The reason why I think that there will be some
questions not only on trade and what the status of
that is, but certainly on this issue, which the administration
resurrected with the statement that they put out yesterday.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Michael that and what a strange situation this Elon Musk
has turned into and he's back at it again now
trying to start a third party. You wonder there'll be
some questions about that and boy did he dried the
knife in on Epstein on X yesterday.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Do you even know what to make of this whole situation.
Speaker 14 (32:08):
Yeah, I don't know what to make of it either,
you know. I mean, obviously it's hard to believe to
a certain extent, think about where the relationship was between
Trump and Musk last year at this time, as the
President was running for the White House, they were inseparable.
Speaker 15 (32:24):
You know, the Elon.
Speaker 14 (32:25):
Musk spent two hundred and fifty million dollars plus of
his own money to try to get Donald Trump elected.
And here we are a year later, and they are mortal,
it seems, mortal enemies with each other.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
It's just really remarkable. Michael John, so great to have
you back. You were very very very very missed. But
that was rest you very very much earned.
Speaker 14 (32:47):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 15 (32:48):
Good to be with you. And we'll talk tomorrow for sure.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
Thanks Michael, you got it.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
You know, the Elon muskling is just it doesn't make
any sense for his business. You know, in the end,
he's going to have the Left hate them, and they've
already been targeting Tesla dealerships in Tesla vehicles or selling
theirs and now attacking the president.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
It's not easy to start a party.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
There's a reason why they're you know, Republican Party was
the last new party.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
But he's obviously not going to back off.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
And that's quite the double down yesterday on the EPs steam.
So we'll keep an eye on that big, big cabinet
meeting today and a lot of Q and a John
Deck will be there. He'll be asking some of the questions.
We'll get you some of the answers tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
