Speaker 5 (00:40):
Street starting your morning off right, A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding, because that was rangees together.
This is your morning show with Michael delchorm.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
We have the greatest listeners in Olive Radio and the
most towns at Rachel from White House just outside of Nashville, Tennessee.

Speaker 6 (01:03):
What was the one she's saying at Christmas?

Speaker 3 (01:05):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (01:05):
My gosh?

Speaker 1 (01:07):
Oh was silent night or Holy Night?

Speaker 6 (01:10):
I don't know. I'll find you.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
Can you imagine with a little bit of reverb and
a microphone. With that voice sounds like thank you, Rachel.
I think that should become our new Monday tradition. We've
been looking for a tradition for Monday to go along
with Paul Harvey's on Friday.

Speaker 6 (01:26):
Maybe that's it.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
Lindsay's grandsister expected to be sworn in today to fill
the spot of her late brother. A third consecutive night
of US strikes against Iran has been carried out. The
President has reinstated the blockade on the Strait of Hormuz,
as well as shutting down Iranian ports, which makes them poor.
He'll address the nation on Thursday World Cup soccer semi

(01:47):
finals on this bestial day, France taking on Spain to
central on Fox England and Argentina tomorrow. Well, I've had
Red chirping in my ear all morning long. Maybe should
have him do this visit with Stephen Boucci from the
Heritage Foundation, one of the largest think thanks in the world,
one of the great military minds. Stephen Bouci joins us.
The Colonel Piece seems to be on hold. Heavy bombing

(02:11):
has resumed, blockades have resumed, and more targets are being hit.
That begs the question now what's the plan and is
there any end ever in sight?

Speaker 6 (02:22):
Colonel Butchie, good morning.

Speaker 7 (02:25):
Good morning, and or I wish I could sing like that.

Speaker 8 (02:29):
That was pretty amazing together.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
Yes, you can always tell when there's a pro. Michelle
Pillar is a very dear friend, and whenever she sings,
it reminds me. Or Nate used to play piano for
Donna summer on tour, and I've been to his house
and he sits down and starts playing the piano, and
he's not really playing the piano. I mean, the piano
just comes to life. It's just crazy. When people are
gifted and pros how different it sounds. You can just

(02:56):
tell immediately. But that's our audience for you, all right,
Well help them understand. And I had one of my
Minnesota listeners called yesterday.

Speaker 6 (03:03):
He had a great question.

Speaker 1 (03:04):
You know, President's always bragging we've destroyed this, destroyed that,
and yet we always have these new targets.

Speaker 6 (03:10):
How can both coexist?

Speaker 7 (03:13):
Well, because we when you've taken out as many targets
as we've taken out, it's you know, it's easy to
say we've taken out, you know, hundreds and hundreds of
targets because we have there's just more, uh and you
know some of them. You know, I don't know if
we thought we'd gotten them all or you know, because
prisident Trump ass have per believed, you know, we need

(03:35):
to Well.

Speaker 6 (03:36):
It's a combination. It's a combination of that.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
And then they fire from somewhere, which reveals where they're
at and that's a new target.

Speaker 6 (03:43):
So that's both. But yeah, exactly.

Speaker 7 (03:44):
Yeah, So there's there's still targets out there obviously because
there's you know, outgoing rounds coming at the ships and
rates and to some of our our bases and some
of our allies around the area.

Speaker 8 (03:59):
So there's still target. It's there.

Speaker 7 (04:01):
And remember we are not and never have said we
were there to you know, carpet bomb the entire country.

Speaker 8 (04:09):
We're trying really hard.

Speaker 7 (04:10):
You know, we had one significant mistake, you know, thanks
to the our friends, the IRGC putting their base around
the school. That was a mistake. That was not an
intentional thing trying to kill girls. But we're trying not
to have collateral damage. And when you do that, that
means there's going to be some targets you're not going

(04:32):
to service because maybe the risk is too high to
go after that target. As the situation changes, your risk
evaluations change. Well, if that particular target is causing a
lot of important damage, we have to take the risk.
We still try and mitigate it, but we'll go after
it later when you're moving down the lot.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
You know, we go back to the very beginning. The
President neutralized all the proxies. It's been a great financial
as well as military hammer on a run. The President's
been very merciful in his target choices, trying not to
impact the people or create a lot to rebuild if
there's a regime change, and time is ticking on that

(05:17):
and he's having to get more and more aggressive with
the surgical strikes. I mean, that's basically what's happening. But
I guess the military expertise question would be and how
deep could these targets be? And when might that be
what the President plans to address on Thursday night.

Speaker 8 (05:34):
That seems to be what he might be addressing.

Speaker 7 (05:37):
There's talk of this this other nuclear facility and I'm
not sure what whether it's a storage facility, a research facility,
or what. The so called Pickaxe Mountain and yeah, they said,
well we're going to go get it.

Speaker 8 (05:53):
We're going to go after it. And what does that mean.

Speaker 7 (05:55):
Does that mean we're going to send people in to
try and break into this facility to take whatever's there.
Are we gonna do a standoff strike, maybe use some
more of our massive penetrators. Who knows, Maybe the President
will tell us on Thursday. Maybe they'll just announce it
after it's done that.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
I was gonna say, I think I think it's well,
I don't know. I don't know if there's any any
element of surprise left. I mean, if the President is
going to address the country on Thursday, my guess is
those strikes are going to carry out that that middle
of the night our next morning, right probably, or that's
something that would be mine.

Speaker 8 (06:38):
That would be my assumption.

Speaker 6 (06:39):
Yeah, what about what about this notion of the president?

Speaker 1 (06:42):
You know, look, the world's had plenty of opportunity, especially
that portion of the world that relies on the goods
and energy supplies that come through that straight to join
us in securing it, and they haven't. So if the
President does make it his job to secure the Straight
of Horn moves, is he right to charge twenty percent

(07:02):
on cargo ships if we're bearing the expense of the
military cost to secure the Strait. Why shouldn't we be
given the chance to recoup it? The other side of
the coin is the Strait never belonged to Iran, it
shouldn't belong to us.

Speaker 6 (07:18):
It does need to be open.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
Is the President overstepping his balance by wanting to get
his twenty percent?

Speaker 7 (07:25):
You know, I think in a logical sense, I think
it's legitimate. It's cost in America a lot of money
to do this. It is an official more so to
other countries than ourselves. However, you know, like when we
after the nine to eleven attached and we started the
war in Afghanistan and then then Iraq, we did a

(07:48):
thing that we called in the Pentagon kin cupping, and
our Undersecretary of Defense for comptrol or who's the money
guy in the Pentagon, he went around around to all
sorts of countries all over the world basically saying, look,
we're not asking you to put any troops on the
ground to get in the fight, but you have, you know,

(08:11):
buildings full of money. We'd like some contribution to help
us offset the costs that the United States is paying.

Speaker 8 (08:18):
To do this war on terror.

Speaker 7 (08:20):
And most of the Gulf States and the Europeans to
a some extent. They tried to help in Afghanistan, at
least on the ground, but we got.

Speaker 8 (08:31):
Funding help from other countries. I think that probably would.

Speaker 7 (08:34):
Have been a better way to do it than just
announce we're going to start charging tolls right after we
have the Secretary of State say, well, nobody has authority
charge tolls there.

Speaker 8 (08:45):
It doesn't belong to anybody. This conventional waters.

Speaker 6 (08:47):
This could be part of the deal Trump style.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
In other words, it starts with twenty percent and then
they come to the table, well, if you want, if
you want me to do this, and then you I
think you could end up in that same place. How
important is that once oh, go ahead to finish ending
me interrupt?

Speaker 8 (09:02):
Well, I was gonna says.

Speaker 7 (09:04):
You never know what the second and third negotiating positions
are with President Trump, and it may and he does
sometimes say that stuff without a lot of planning beforehand.

Speaker 8 (09:17):
He gets the idea in the middle of the thing and.

Speaker 7 (09:19):
Said it, and then all of these guys are going, Okay,
I don't think we do this, so we'll have to
wait and see.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
The art of the deal is sometimes the art of
the chaos. Right, we're visiting with Stephen Bouchie colonel, a
military expert when the president. I was just watching a
video earlier this morning, and it was John F. Kennedy
just addressing the threat of socialism and communism from inside
of America. And it was in an impromptu news conference,
a question out of the blue, if you will, and

(09:47):
the answer was so profound and without any hesitation, and
so deep and rich. And I'm like, here we are
now having all these conversations, whether it's the Internet or
televis vision or radio, and what we need is the
president in prime time to identify the enemy, the interests

(10:09):
of the United States, and the plan and endgame. I
hope he plans to you all that Thursday. And then
my next question would be why did he wait so long?

Speaker 8 (10:20):
Well, you know, you think about it, Michael.

Speaker 7 (10:22):
We all the way through the Cold War, we had
an American Communist Party, we had an American Socialist part
We didn't outlaw those those guys, even though you know
they they would communicate with the U. U was the
common turn whatever they called the Big Congress that they
would do in the Soviet Union every couple of years.

(10:44):
We didn't outlaw because of our free speech and and
other principles that we have under our constitution, but we
also need to state very unequivocally to the American people,
this is bad stuff. We're you know, we're not outlawing
these guys from existing, but we're also you the voter

(11:08):
need to understand what they're about. They're not these nice
guys who are trying to make everybody equal. They are
plotting against the best interests of our country. We've got
to make that case so that the voters don't elect
these people.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
To the American people, I know, it's the twenty fifth
anniversary of nine to eleven, do they need someone to
explain to them the three types of Mohammad, therefore the
three types of Muslims today that this radical, she hottest
Mohammadian warrior like Shia brand in Iran is a fourteen
hundred year enemy, not a forty seven year enemy of America,

(11:46):
but a fourteen hundred year enemy of the world. I mean,
how deep should the president go in explaining this enemy,
this threat to the region and to the world, and
why we're doing what we're doing.

Speaker 7 (11:58):
I think it's absolutely necessary. Now some of the people
out there listening, somebody like you and and other folks
who study this, who understand it, it's.

Speaker 8 (12:08):
Going to be you know, no new news.

Speaker 7 (12:10):
You're gonna sit there and go, okay, yeah, amen, that's
that's correct. But there's a lot of Americans out there.
We do have very short memories as as a culture
and as a people.

Speaker 8 (12:21):
Uh. Some of it is a blessing.

Speaker 7 (12:23):
We don't have, you know, five hundred year grudges with
people like in a lot of other parts of the world.
But on on the other hand, when you forget that
this stuff has, you know, there were predicates to all this.
This is not something that just popped up last month. Uh,
you know, or as you say, it's it's not a
forty seven year old threat. It's a threat that's more

(12:45):
than fifteen hundred years old.

Speaker 8 (12:47):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (12:47):
It's It bears repeating both with regard to radical Islam
and with regards common show Michael conglomerate that's out there,
which really ridiculously. Also that makes common cause with the
radical Islamic side, even though you would think those guys,

(13:09):
you know, one side supposedly secular, the other sides of
radical religious group, there shouldn't be any common cause. But
the common cause is eliminating America. From the playing board,
because we're the only things standing between them and dominance.

Speaker 8 (13:26):
In their minds, they're both coming after us.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
We got to be ready for goes by so fast,
we're down to forty five seconds. How concerned are you
on the twenty fifth anniversary? Not just that we've got
an Islamist as the mayor of that city twenty five
years later, but they love anniversaries to act and to target.
How concerned are you that something could happen on this
twenty fifth anniversary? To remind everybody how terrorism has tentacles

(13:53):
that reach far beyond these regimes.

Speaker 8 (13:57):
It always bothers me.

Speaker 7 (13:58):
We have since nine to eleven, whenever there's an anniversary,
whether it's you know, fourth of July, something tied directly
to nine to eleven the terrorist movement, our military and
intel capabilities ramped way up because we know that that's
a possibility. It doesn't happen all the time, thank god,
but it's there. The threat is there. Our folks are

(14:23):
ready for it. So for me, I get concerned. It's
an target of prayer and a target of professional concern.
But I know that there are people out there who
are on the wall watching for us. Trying to keep
us safe, and they do one heck of a job.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
We know the President needed two planes to get home
because of his proximity to Iran. He has a standing
order that if he's assassinated, to take them out, and
it'll ultimately be up to jd Vance whether to carry
that out. But I wonder if that's going to come
up in this third This is starting to come to
a head, and I think a presidential address in primetime

(15:02):
on Thursday is your first indicator.

Speaker 6 (15:04):
Now we just have to wait and see what he's
going to say.

Speaker 8 (15:07):
Yep, I agree one hundred percent.

Speaker 7 (15:09):
I don't know if that will come up, but I
hope that. I mean, anybody who thinks if they kill
President Trump that there's not going to be a response
from his administration afterwards, and it's going to make the
response thus far look pretty darned, you know, Like, yeah,

(15:32):
will for you something that will be regional changing.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
And the time between now and the nine to eleven anniversary,
twenty fifth anniversary could be a time to lay low
and then strike. I have a feeling that Iran is
looking very closely at that nine to eleven date.

Speaker 6 (15:49):
All right, more with Steven Bouchie. In the coming days.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
You can read his great work and his colleagues great
work at Heritage dot Org. It's always our pleasure, Colonel,
thank you, thanks for having me have a great week YouTube.
When it comes to supplements, two things matter most that
they work and that you can trust them. So rather
than me just telling you how great it is or
how it worked for me, let me share other people's
relief Factor story because we hear from them every single day.
Chris spent years doing physical work, leaving his feet sore.

(16:15):
At the end of the day after he started Relief Factor,
he felt so good he did something he never had
done before.

Speaker 6 (16:22):
He ran a half marathon.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
In addition to being back at work and feeling great,
everybody has their own relief Factor story. Mine is golfing
but no back pain, no hand pain, and playing my
best golf ever. The point is independence from pain to
do the things you love. Whether it's your work, whether
it's a hobby, whether it's playing with grandchildren. What will

(16:45):
your relief Factor story be? Find out our two hundred
and fifty year anniversary. Patriotic pricing of seventeen seventy six

Speaker 6 (17:55):
Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, but I'm in the cooler. We're

Speaker 1 (18:00):
Timmy suits from Havid yeah, thirty six minutes now after
the hour in the Central Times on twenty four minutes
to be to work by eight o'clock. This is the
show that belongs to you. This is your morning show.
I'm Michael del Jorno, honored to serve you. Jeffries here,
reds here, headlines around. Well, we'll start with the CBS.
Darlene Graham Nordone, Lindsey Graham's sister will be sworn in

(18:22):
today to replace her brother through January. In the course
of special election, will choose the ultimate successor Axios Hays.
US military to enforce new Iran blockades starting at four
o'clock today, Politico US to take over the Strait of Hormuz,
charge twenty percent fee for cargo ships that pass through.
CNBC US targets Iranian military assets, and another round of

(18:44):
air strikes overnight as Tehran It's Gulf States. And finally
from the Hill, the Trump will give a primetime speech
to the American people on Thursday speaking of that. And
we have many sounds of the day. I want to
start with one. I don't know, it doesn't feel like well,
I will do it anymore.

Speaker 6 (19:03):
Then we're entertainment.

Speaker 8 (19:06):
We will win we will win.

Speaker 3 (19:09):
They all look like a bunch of early men.

Speaker 8 (19:15):
Just doesn't make even change.

Speaker 6 (19:18):
I am not all right.

Speaker 1 (19:19):
It's time for the sounds of the day, always revealing,
often entertaining, and I have normal ones coming up. But
we kind of were talking about expectations of the President's address. One,
what these targets are, Two, what the plan is, Three,
how long we can expect us to last? Four, what's
gonna you know, how it's going to play out. What
the priorities are. I think, you know, the American people's

(19:41):
first priority is that Iran is not a threat to
anybody in the region, especially our troops or interests or allies.
That they're not a nuclear threat to the world, and
that the strait of hormones is secured and open and
remain secured and open. I mean, that's that's the mission goals.
The expectation is that the President could address for the

(20:02):
American people what he's been doing, what he's going to do,
and why he's doing it, meaning who the enemy is. Now.
I'm going to be very interested in that portion of
the address if it's there, because I think the President
views this as a forty seven year enemy of the
United States. When in fact it's a fourteen hundred plus
year enemy of the world. And that's two different things.

(20:25):
Should he express that there are peace loving Muslims around
the world that follow the first example of Muhammad, But
there's also a very dangerous political Islam that populates infiltrates, agitates,
and destroys from within. When they get enough leverage, they
wage war. And that what we're dealing with in Iran
are the Shia Mohammadian warriors or in a state of fight.

(20:51):
The only way to deal with them is to kill
them or they'll kill you, defeat them, or they'll defeat you.
Is there an opportunity to discuss all that? Say, well,
I don't know. We don't need to get into like
a classroom. Well, there was a time America was watching,
was listening. Presidents did understand, and presidents could explain. And

(21:13):
I'll give you an example. We're dealing with the rise
of socialism right now. We have stories in the news today.
One of the talkback suggestions was playing this congressman from
Texas who was on with Laura Ingram explaining what a
threat this is not just to the Democrat Party but
to America from within. But what are the odds anybody's
watching Laura Ingram. Nobody watches one of three networks. The

(21:36):
president isn't on every television, and every American is interested.
Half America hates the president. Half of America worships the president.
And they're all scattered from the world wide Web to
a million channels on television. They can't even find the
home run Derby, let alone even care to find the president.
But even if they did and could, what a president today?

(22:00):
Only now this is John F. Kennedy, Like, you know,
a normal setting at a podium and just gets asked
a question off the cuff, And this was President Kennedy's
off the cuff answer concerning socialism and communism rooted in America.

Speaker 8 (22:17):
Listen.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
Communism is so often described as an ideology or a
belief that exists somewhere other than in the United States.
Let me ask you, sir, just how serious a threat
to our national security are these communists subversive activities in
the United States today?

Speaker 8 (22:33):
Well? I think they're serious.

Speaker 4 (22:34):
I think it's a matter that we should continue to
give great care and attention to. We should support the
laws which the United States has passed in order to
protect us from those who would destroy us from within.
We should sustain the Department of Justice and his efforts
in the FBI, and we should be continually alert. I
think if the United States is maintaining a strong society

(22:54):
here in the United States, I think that we can
meet any internal threat. The major threat is external and
will continue, for we are opposed around the world by
a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covet
means for expanding its sphere of influence, on infiltration instead

(23:17):
of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation, instead
of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies
by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast
human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit,

(23:38):
highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific,
and political operations. Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its
mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised.

(23:59):
No expenditure questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed.
It conducts the Cold War in short, with a wartime
discipline no democracy would ever hope or wish to match. Nevertheless,
every democracy recognizes the necessary restraints of national security, and

(24:21):
the question remains whether those restraints need to be more
strictly observed if we are to oppose this kind of
attack as well as outright invasion.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
I mean, why don't we have presidents to talk like
this anymore, that explain things so clearly like this anymore.
I don't know if that's the clip the TikTok would
have used or Facebook corrects. I don't know who would
be on their perspective matrix source or busy just scrolling

(24:57):
an influencer on the terror style. But we needed we
always talk about what the founding fathers might say. What
would Jack Kennedy think twenty five years after nine to
eleven and is lomist mayor anti Israel, anti American? Let alone,

(25:19):
a socialist running the largest city. That's a level of
threat he never thought would ever be possible. Let alone
can explain the problem. I think the President has an
opportunity Thursday to describe and explain this enemy to a

(25:40):
new generation of American people and explain once and for
all what he's been doing for four months and what
he plans to.

Speaker 6 (25:48):
Do for the remainder of this conflict. We'll see if
he does.

Speaker 1 (25:55):
On Thursday, this was the President blasting CNN's Caitlin Collins
before kicking the press completely out of his room.

Speaker 10 (26:02):
Listen, and then you read fake news like your network, CNN,
which is fake news. You read them, you have them say, well, actually,
aren't they doing quite well?

Speaker 8 (26:11):
Let me just say it.

Speaker 10 (26:13):
They have now inflation of over three hundred percent. Four
months ago they had inflation of five percent. Now they're
at over three hundred, could be three hundred and fifty percent.
They made a deal, they broke it probably ten times,
and they killed a lot of people.

Speaker 6 (26:30):
They killed our people.

Speaker 10 (26:32):
But the protest is what they've done to the protesters
fifty two thousand. Have you ever seen any of the
burial loss where they're doing, where they're burying the protesters.
They killed fifty two thousand protesters, and on my watch,
they can't do any of that. So we have them
in a position that they don't have any military. There's
not a thing they can do about it. All they

(26:54):
have is fake news. Because they have the fake news.
Would rather see us lose the war than when the
which has really treated us, which has really treated us
in a second way, So we're doing another very major
attack tonight.

Speaker 8 (27:08):
They want to make a deal.

Speaker 6 (27:09):
They came back.

Speaker 10 (27:10):
We made a deal two days ago, and they want
to make a deal.

Speaker 6 (27:12):
They've been negotiating.

Speaker 10 (27:13):
For forty seven years, but nobody's ever hit that militarily.

Speaker 8 (27:17):
We're hitting a very hard feeling.

Speaker 6 (27:19):
Thank you, now get out.

Speaker 1 (27:22):
It shows me the President is geared up, maybe to
address this all for the American people that make this case.
And you can forever question why he waited this long.

Speaker 6 (27:32):
To make a case in the five.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
Dimensional chess that always makes him brilliant no matter what
he does, including making mistakes. I guess you could explain
it as he alienated them. He gave them every chance.
Now they're out of chances. If you saw the movie
Bronx Tale, now you just can't leave. Something tells me
there are two very significant things coming this speech Thursday

(27:58):
night and the nine to eleven twenty fifth anniversary. One
the President gets a chance to have his say. The
other might be Iran or terrorists having THEIRS. I pray
for the first and I pray against the latter. This
is Newt Gingrich who was on the show. We discussed

(28:19):
a lot of this when he was on the show
with us and I think what Nude is trying to do,
like I'm trying to do, is fill the void that
the president has created, an absence of explanation. In other words,
has the president's silence or what appears to be okay

(28:40):
wars on, oh, wars off? Warson wars off? Is he
day trading? Is he fighting a war on two fronts,
trying to keep gas prices somewhat steady because of the midterms,
the economy somewhat steady because of the midterms, Or is
he doing something even far more strategic and sending messages
far more strategic to the Muslim an air world and

(29:02):
making sure Iron is ultimately the bad guy with no
place to go.

Speaker 6 (29:07):
Watch how Nude explains this.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
I think it's possible, and if it is, it's brilliant.

Speaker 3 (29:12):
May strike here as a strange analogy, But when Abraham
Lincoln became president and the self succeeded, the senior General
outlined for him what he called an Anaconda strategy that
they would gradually surround and crush the rebellion. Well, if

(29:33):
you watch week after week, our allies are getting mad
at Iran, not us. The Iranians are gradually losing power
and capability.

Speaker 6 (29:45):
We are coercing them.

Speaker 3 (29:47):
They are in the middle. I think of a huge
internal fight between a faction that desperately wants to deal
and a faction that desperately wants to keep up the
old dictatorship. And I think the President is moving slower
than idlife, slower than you and Jack Keenwood like.

Speaker 6 (30:07):
But he's moving.

Speaker 3 (30:08):
Methodically and saying, look, I am going to do what
it takes, and you Iranians get to decide how much
it takes. But whatever you decide, I'll live up to it.
And I would say, because I have great faith in
Admiral Cooper in the Central Command, and I've talked with him,
and I am confident, and I know Jack talks to

(30:31):
them all the time. I believe what the Iranians don't
get yet is that because of our space based assets,
we have absolute knowledge, yes, every time they break the rules,
and therefore we are going to respond week by week,
We're going to grind them down. But notice he's done

(30:53):
without oil going to two hundred dollars a barrel. He's
done it without the stock market crashing. He's gone in
a calm way. And by the way, if you notice
the NADO meeting. He's done well. Even the Canadian Prime
Minister said Trump was right and he's moving the right direction.
Now if you can be aggressive and get Canada on

(31:14):
your side.

Speaker 6 (31:17):
I am starting to get suspicious.

Speaker 1 (31:19):
The President is doing a very slng brilliant game here
and an endgame and the splinters within the regime could
lead to the ultimate, which is non nuclear Iran, a
safe and open straight and ultimately a regime change. Then again,

(31:43):
they may still be fighting a forty seven year enemy
and ignoring a fourteen hundred year I think we're gonna
know more after Thursday speech.

Speaker 8 (31:51):
And you're a fresh person.

Speaker 6 (31:53):
I think that this is.

Speaker 10 (31:56):
Used to call Joe Biden a mentally retarded person, say.

Speaker 6 (31:59):
That what they're not seeing.

Speaker 8 (32:01):
Let's talk. Call me king, now do you believe it?

Speaker 6 (32:03):
No, King, I'm such a king. I can't get a
bow over.

Speaker 1 (32:06):
And that's your Sounds of the Day for Tuesday, July,
the fourteenth Year of Our Lord, twenty twenty six. Well,
if you're like most people, you find the entire healthcare
process overwhelming, if not confusing. Your copays are through the roof.
You want choices and freedom to pick your doctor in coverage,
but you.

Speaker 6 (32:23):
Don't get it.

Speaker 1 (32:25):
Well, that's where directcare dot com or directcare dot org
comes in. We believe healthcare can be affordable. We think
we can fix most of the problems it has.

Speaker 6 (32:34):
Right now, we.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
Get gas, meds, labs, food, just about everything costs way
too much. Directcare dot org does something that the government
always said was impossible. We offer healthcare with no copays,
no referrals, and when you need to talk to a doctor,
he answers, you're not talking to a middleman or having
to make another appointment. You get everything you need handled

(32:58):

all of your prescriptions for pennies on the dollar from
their own pharmacy. You can skip Wall Street, you can

Speaker 5 (33:21):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chno.

Speaker 1 (33:26):
Lindsay Graham's sister will take his place. Third consecutive night
of Strikes and Iran. If you couldn't find it, it
was on Netflix and it was an amazing home run
derby and a cardinal won it for a change, Jordan Walker, stunned,
Kyle Scharber and everyone watching winning the T Mobile Home
run derby last night in Philadelphia. More sports drama today

(33:48):
on this Bestille Day, France will take on Spain in
the semifinals of World Cup Soccer. That will be two
o'clock Central, three o'clock Eastern on Fox. Following closely the
replacement for Lindsey Graham and the air strikes and the
pending visit with the American people on Thursday in primetime
from the President is their national correspondent.

Speaker 8 (34:08):
Roory O Neil.

Speaker 6 (34:08):
Good morning, Rory, good morning.

Speaker 9 (34:10):
We did see more military strikes by the US really
targeting Iran's port structures, either the buildings there that would
hamper their ability to import or export anything, as we
reintroduced the US Navy's blockade on all Iranian ports. Of course,
the President said that he intends for the US to

(34:31):
be the guardian of the Strait of Hormuz and perhaps
attach a twenty percent fee on all ships that safely
make it through the strait. Of course, that's something that
is still being talked about a little bit. We'll see
how that settles down. But as you said, the President
is expected to address the nation on Thursday night. We
expect that to be focusing on election security, election safety,

(34:53):
and whether or not there was any shenanigans during the
last elections, especially out of Georgia.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
So is it possible that the Thursday addressed to the
American people has nothing to do with Iran and what
we tried to do, which you know, if all we
are saying you is give Piece a chance. The President
gave Piece every chance. They kept blowing it. Now there
is no peace. He's not going to describe endgame. We
think it's gonna be something completely unrelated to Iran.

Speaker 9 (35:19):
I think it's related to election issues for this Thursday night.

Speaker 6 (35:23):
Yep, Wow, that would be very disappointing.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
Okay, Then the other big story, I think we know
who Donald Trump's choice was, and therefore it was the
governor's choice. But it's has a Graham's sister to take
his seat intil a special election.

Speaker 9 (35:38):
Right, Darlene will be essentially a seat filler through the
end of Senator Lindsey Graham's term.

Speaker 6 (35:44):
We don't think she's going to run for the seat.

Speaker 9 (35:46):
So now that's going to start this frenzy of getting
candidates selected for primaries.

Speaker 8 (35:51):
In August.

Speaker 9 (35:52):
Of course, with South Carolina being so red, whoever wins
that primary as an awfully good chance of winning in November,
and it.

Speaker 1 (35:58):
Might be Nancy May. That's probably the biggest early name
to have surfaced. This would give his sister his seat
through January, and then of course the special election would
determine who would take over from there. Rory, great reporting
as always. All right, we've got an All Star game
tonight major League Baseball in Philadelphia. We've got World Cup
soccer semi finals France Spain. That's must see two o'clock

(36:21):
Central on Fox. Lots for you to do today, But
remember this Tuesday, July fourteenth, twenty twenty six will never
happen again. That makes it very precious. Go make a
difference in someone's life, cherish your own love, someone else
more than yourself, and we'll see it tomorrow morning for
the next your morning show.

Speaker 6 (36:40):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
