Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's Michael.

Speaker 2 (00:00):

Saint Louis, Sacramento, Phoenix, just to name a few. You

Speaker 3 (00:21):
Enjoy off Right, a new way of talk, a new
way of understanding, because we're in this together.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
This is your Morning.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
Show with Michael Bill Jordan.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
Coming up next to a Bauer. Our White House correspondent
John Decker with the latest on the congressional hearings into
the Biden cover up. Should we expect more bleeding of
the fifth I suspect? So Also, John's got a major
announcement that I want to share with you, so stick
around for that. We're still waiting on the White House
phone call. We have a simple red line for just

(00:57):
the President. It hasn't rung yet, so eight minutes after
the hour. Thanks for waking up with your morning show.
I'm Michael del Journal humbold honored to serve you. Jeffrey
Servitus both so has read with keeping an eye on
the content. While we're waiting on the President's get a
couple of calls in. Let's start with Dallas Morning Fellas.
Let's don't forget about Gutfeld.

Speaker 4 (01:17):
I haven't watched a late night TV show either, minus
Gutfeld in a very long time. And this just goes
back to the old saying, go woke, go broke.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeah, I you know, I'm gonna stick by my guns
in that I believe, you know, all success revolves around
being based in key benefit, the credibility of the host,
whether it's credibly funny, credibly sincere, and then you know,
entertaining or content delivering. And that's why I think you

(01:54):
guys are dusting around a lot of this. You know,
they're not as funny, and the intent and the spirit
behind it is not that, you know, going back to
the Johnny Carson quote, I think Johnny and Jack Benny
and others that he mentioned Red Skeleton, they mostly made
fun of themselves. So there's a mix to the content
that gets out. This was mean spirited, targeted, obsessed, and

(02:18):
not funny. Over and over cumulative exposure night after night,
and then Gutfelt comes along and it's good and it's funny.
I don't know that it has a place on a
political news network anymore than politics as a place on
late night entertainment shows, but it does it from one
side of the Shirts and Skins that it has the

(02:40):
audience all to itself. The other three have to split
their audiences. I think Johnny hit the nail on the head.
They played Shirts and Skins divisive, angry politics and out
of any kind of mix of entertainment or humor. And

(03:02):
nobody wants to start their morning off wrong with somebody
yelling at him and spewing hate, and they don't want
to end it that way either. This is not just
the death of CBS's Late show with Stephen Colbert, and
I suspect Kimmel is next. We have time. President hasn't
called yet, right, let's to d real quick.

Speaker 5 (03:21):
Good morning, Michael, And in regards to the Colbert situation,
I think there's one thing we're all missing. I think
people are just tired of those who spew hate. If
you look back at the last few months, who's lost
their jobs Chuck Todd, Joy read Don lemon. All people
who spew hate and anger. We're tired of it.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
Yeah, I mean, because house divided against itself simply can't stand.
Let's get Stewart in here real quick and on the
CEO from Boston.

Speaker 6 (03:53):
Like my grandpa always said, if you're going to be dumb,
you gotta be tough.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
Life's hard, it's harder if you're stud I never thought
about that. I've done some stupid things in my life
and I wasn't tough. That's why he stopped being stupid.
But if you're gonna be stupid, you gotta be tough.
I'll put that right up there. All the president is there,
The president is there on we all say hell to

(04:20):
He has the power because he takes a shower. Mister President.
Good morning, Good.

Speaker 7 (04:26):
Morning to you, pizza boy. You know this is a
very popular thing we do. I have to say, the
ratings are already in there through the roof.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
We're doing very well.

Speaker 7 (04:34):
And you're doing very well. It already leaked, you know.
We love those leaks.

Speaker 8 (04:37):
Those are good leaks, unlike the bad leaks, like when
Crooked Joe took a leak and he wasn't supposed to
be doing that, but we'll talk about that later.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
I can tell you that you you had me laughing
so loud in your news conference and talking about the
big beautiful bill and if we didn't do it, how
people would lose their money and then lose their pretty wise.
I thought, wow, you can. You can be just as
funny when you're not with us. Let's start with Rosie
O'donnald Do you think I don't know? That one just

(05:04):
seemed a little harsh. I mean, why even call attention
to but you? Are you seriously considering removing her citizenship?

Speaker 5 (05:11):
Well?

Speaker 8 (05:11):
What if I told you we already did it right,
or it's already ready to go. We haven't signed it yet,
But what if I told you? You know you look
at Rosie and when she moved to Ireland. I had
this conversation with the.

Speaker 7 (05:21):
Prime Minister and the President of Ireland. You know uh.
They said to me, sir, we have a problem. One
of your exports is causing a problem.

Speaker 8 (05:28):
I said, she's your problem. Now, she's your problem. Now.

Speaker 7 (05:32):
They wanted to send her back.

Speaker 8 (05:33):
And I told them, I said, you're not going to
do that. He said, but sir, she's eating us out
of house and hope she's going to cause another potato famine.
I said, that's your problem, that's your problem. He's there now,
he said, we're going to send her back. I said,
if you send her back, he will caere a few
one percent per pound of ROSI O'donnald, that is a

(05:55):
five thousand percent tariff.

Speaker 7 (05:57):
Don't you do it? And he said, there when I'm.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
Going to do it.

Speaker 8 (05:59):
So now she's over there and they still want to
send her back. If she comes back here, we're sending
her to Alligator Alcatraz.

Speaker 7 (06:06):
Now she's not coming back. We're not letting her back.

Speaker 8 (06:10):
And she's a disgusting person and she's Ireland's problem now.

Speaker 7 (06:13):
So much for the luck of the Irish, right, it's
pretty random when you think about it.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
Adam Scheff, who once used to say about you, no
one's above the law. I wonder if he feels that
way looking in the mirror as he faces mortgage fraud charges.
Adam Schiff, he's a characterist.

Speaker 7 (06:30):
He well, he's a pencil neck and the bug eyes.
And you look at the size of his head and
the size of his neck. We call it an engineering miracle, right,
The fact that I built a lot of miracles, and
beautiful buildings.

Speaker 8 (06:40):
But you look at the size of that big ugly
he's not a beautiful melon head he's got.

Speaker 7 (06:45):
He's got a melon on top of his head. You
wouldn't believe it.

Speaker 8 (06:48):
But the pencil neck that it sits.

Speaker 7 (06:50):
On, you would think he would break all day long
with those.

Speaker 8 (06:52):
Maybe that's why his eyes are always so big, because.

Speaker 7 (06:54):
He's probably in pain. His neck and his spine are
in pain from holding up that head.

Speaker 8 (07:00):
But I have to tell you. You look at him,
and you know he says nobody's above the.

Speaker 7 (07:05):
Law, and he's out there committing mortgage fraud. Uh.

Speaker 8 (07:08):
You know he said his primary residence.

Speaker 7 (07:10):
Was in Maryland, which makes him a Maryland Man.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
Maybe we should do.

Speaker 8 (07:14):
The same thing to him that we did to the
last Maryland man. Deport We'll get him out right to
l Salvador.

Speaker 7 (07:20):
Maybe that's where he can servative sentence. But when you
look at it, Uh.

Speaker 8 (07:24):
Shifty shift, you know, he's full of shift.

Speaker 7 (07:27):
S C H I F F right.

Speaker 8 (07:30):
So anybody understands we didn't say.

Speaker 7 (07:31):
A nasty word like sugar on the iced tea. We
would never say that. Brother speaking well, we love and
by the way, we love the sugar Cane. That was
Bobby's idea.

Speaker 8 (07:40):
And I call him Bobby, Remember Bobby, But you look
at I call him Bobby.

Speaker 7 (07:44):
I've always called him Bobby, tremendous guy.

Speaker 8 (07:46):
But you look at Shift, and you look at Sasquatch
Latisha Jags because she looks like Statsquatch. You look at
her same person. Uh, they're both mortgaged for it. Maybe
they could share a cell and take out a mortgage
together when they go to jail.

Speaker 7 (07:59):
We'll see what happens.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
Friday with forty seven Crome's daughter got fired. I can
almost hear the left narrative. Now, Oh, of course she
got fired because her dad's James. Never mind, she presided
over the Epstein case and the p Diddy case. I mean,
how can you feel any more spectacular? I assume this
firing from the Justice Department was not personal and didn't
come at your behast.

Speaker 7 (08:21):
Well, you look at it.

Speaker 8 (08:22):
We don't make personal firings, except of course, when I
fire these people.

Speaker 7 (08:25):
But I didn't do that.

Speaker 8 (08:26):
You look at Maureen Komy and we say, like father,
like daughter. Both of these people are sleeves bags and
they're now unemployed.

Speaker 7 (08:34):
Right, you look at it. Maybe she'll be walking on
the beak shoe.

Speaker 8 (08:38):
She may have seashells, you know, she may be Sally
sells seashells by the sea shore. I don't get twisted
up right, I don't have to tengue twisted. I twist them.

Speaker 7 (08:46):
They don't twist me. What horrible?

Speaker 1 (08:48):
You know.

Speaker 7 (08:48):
Maybe she'll wind up on the view right with the
rest of the bickering bovine on that TV show, stupid people,
and she's fit threaded with them. So we'll see what happens.
But we're happy she been yep fired, right, I mean
NBC fake. There's a lot of money yef.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
Yeah fire, Okay. So Epstein, there's no question. It's like
a political potato, just as mom Domni is. So the
right can't talk about Mamdania enough, and the left suddenly
cares about all the victims of Epstein and want this
list because they know, you know problem, Why is it
so hard to just explain to people there is no
black book. There never was. These are names that came

(09:26):
up in deposition from victims in a court case that
never happened because he killed himself and died or was
killed and died.

Speaker 8 (09:34):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
And it's all sealed by a judge and the names
are redacted. I mean, why is this? But you know,
now it looks like, you know, you're trying to hide something,
and now you're calling it an Epstein hoax. I mean,
why can't somebody just simply explain this for what it is.

Speaker 8 (09:51):
Well, this is the problem, right, Pam Bondi had an explanation,
but she lost it on her desk, right, because she
loses a lot of things on her desk. You know,
we call Pam Bondi's desk triangle. It's where everything goes
to disappear. And we're looking very closely at deporting all
of the illegals to Pam's desk.

Speaker 7 (10:07):
So we never see them again.

Speaker 8 (10:08):
I can tell you that it's a you know, it's
a big beautiful hole, like it's a black hole.

Speaker 7 (10:13):
We have to call it a hole of color. We
don't want to be accused of being racist. But you
look at it. The Epstein casses a hoax, is a
complete total hoax.

Speaker 8 (10:22):
And it's not the things that he did or didn't.

Speaker 7 (10:24):
Do that's a hoax.

Speaker 8 (10:26):
The Democrats don't care about Epstein. They want to say
that I am covering up for bad people.

Speaker 7 (10:31):
We're not doing that. That's the hoax uh and the
other hoax is the desk.

Speaker 8 (10:35):
We don't know what the hell is going on on
Pambondi's desk and why everything seems to disappear.

Speaker 7 (10:40):
But there's a big, beautiful problem over at that desk.

Speaker 8 (10:43):
Maybe we could send some of the Rhino Republicans in
the Senate, like Mick.

Speaker 7 (10:47):
McConnell, to pambond the desk. We'll see what happens. But
this is a horrible thing we're looking at. The left
wants to tell you they care about Epstein.

Speaker 8 (10:55):
Gavin Nouskam wants to tell you he cares about Epstein.

Speaker 7 (10:59):
Stupid, He's a stupid guy.

Speaker 8 (11:02):
And then you look at Mam Donni, the Muslim Marxist
from Manhattan. What a stupid And he's by the way,
he's getting the Statue of Liberty fitted for Aberca.

Speaker 7 (11:12):
Could you believe that? I can't believe it. We don't
want to do that.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
You don't want to.

Speaker 7 (11:16):
Do that, but he's getting that happening. You look at
this and say it. I don't want to call him anything.

Speaker 6 (11:22):
I call him a kami.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
Right.

Speaker 8 (11:24):
You look at him hansy Andy Cuomo, right, hansy Andy,
the love Gov.

Speaker 7 (11:29):
He loved some people too much. As it turns out.

Speaker 8 (11:32):
He's a better choice than this guy. I never thought
I would say Andrew Cuomo is a better choice than
somebody else.

Speaker 7 (11:39):
But you look at Mamdani.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
It's bad closing moments with Friday with forty seven. I
just have one last simple question, and that is whose
days are more numbered, Pam Bondi or Jerome Powell.

Speaker 7 (11:52):
Well, you look at Jerompal.

Speaker 8 (11:54):
His days are more numbered because there's actually a.

Speaker 7 (11:56):
Day that he's going to be gone, right nine months
from now. You look at your Ompel.

Speaker 8 (12:00):
Were's the stupid glasses that Keith Oberman are Rachel Mancow
and Mark Cuban and Stephen Polmayer and all these people, right,
and Rosie o'donald Shoist, he's wearing the same glasses, which means.

Speaker 7 (12:11):
He's one of them. Right, He's one of them.

Speaker 8 (12:14):
He's one of those.

Speaker 7 (12:14):
People in this technical cult. Right. It's terrible, but you
look at it.

Speaker 8 (12:19):
Jerome Powell is a fool.

Speaker 7 (12:21):
We call him too late.

Speaker 8 (12:22):
And he went through one point and eight billion dollars
with a bean billion with a bean right to renovate
the FED. You have the buffalo bills, right, the buffalo
Bills in New York with the Bucktooth Boattox band and
a Buffalo kaffeine uncle, the wicked Witch of the Northeast,
I like to call her.

Speaker 7 (12:40):
And they're spending two point.

Speaker 8 (12:42):
Two billion dollars on a sixty two thousand seat football stadium.
It costs less to build a football.

Speaker 7 (12:49):
Stadium than it does to renovate the FED.

Speaker 8 (12:52):
Because Jerome Powell is a fool and a loser and
a stupid person. The Buck Tooth Band that could spend
less money than Jerome Powell and want to be ashamed
of himself, and you want to be fired.

Speaker 7 (13:02):
And we're looking at it.

Speaker 1 (13:03):
And they will host a Super Bowl, and I think
they're gonna win a Super Bowl a lot sooner than
people think. All right, that's it Friday with forty seven.
As always, mister President, we thank you so much for
your time, and thank you so much for your leadership.
Thanks for being with us.

Speaker 8 (13:19):
Well God bless your pizza boy.

Speaker 7 (13:21):
And I'm not so sure about the Bill's winning a
super Bowl.

Speaker 8 (13:23):
It's never happened before, but we'll see what happens.

Speaker 1 (13:28):
It's so hard on Buffalo. We're proud to be in Buffalo,
and I do think they're gonna get to a super Bowl,
all right, not one, not two, not three, But your
top five stories are next. It's twenty minutes after the hour.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
This is your Morning Show with Michael Del Chrono.

Speaker 7 (13:45):
Hey, pizza boy, I.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
Just want to tell you something that cracks me up.
Every Friday when I listen to forty seven twenty he
does the emphasis on me.

Speaker 4 (13:55):
Sure, they said to me, Sa that cracks me.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
Up a spot on. I'd love to hear that on Friday,
because you know what my morning show is.

Speaker 8 (14:06):
Your morning show.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Dejoor no out of Queen Creek, Arizona. Good to be
in the desert with you. Yeah. My favorite, I think
is how he's in the midst of talking and I'll
say something and he hears it and responds to it.
He's never not listening as he's talking. Oh and I
love when he's one of the most well read people

(14:27):
that I've ever heard that too, the way Yeah he does,
And I love obviously whenever he does the I call
him Bobby. That's Sean Farash, very funny guy. If you
want to have Sean. I had somebody the other day
email me. They had him do one for a loved
one on their birthday. You want him to wish somebody
happy birthday, or an anniversary, or a happy retirement, whatever

(14:49):
the occasion. If they loved the President and they want
to feel like the President really called them, go to
farachemedia dot com. All right, if you are just waking up.
President Trump his administration will begin sharing personal information of

(15:10):
Medicaid recipients with immigration authorities. Mark Mayfield has the story.

Speaker 9 (15:14):
According to multiple reports, the Department of Homeland Security is
going to have access to the information of millions of enrollees.
The agreement between DHS and the Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services is aimed at preventing undocumented immigrants from getting
Medicaid benefits, and comes amid President Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration.
Although illegal immigrants are already prohibited from enrolling in Medicaid,

(15:35):
federal law mandates that states offer Medicaid to people who
need emergency treatment, regardless of their immigration status.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
I'm Mark Mayfield, not that anybody was asking or wanting
him to, but former vice presidential candidate Tim Wall says
he's not running for president. In twenty twenty eight.

Speaker 10 (15:49):
Speaking on a podcast, the Minnesota governor said even though
he's not running, he will do everything he can to
help the Democratic Party. Walls was the running mate of
former Vice President Kamala Harris when they lost to President
Trump this past November. The governor likely had an outside
shot of gaining his party's nomination based on recent polls.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
I'm Brian Schuk. Is a meteor shower and it's going
to be in the skies above you all weekend long.

Speaker 11 (16:14):
The Percy Ad meteor Shower is going on now through
August twenty third coast to coast. NASA says no special
viewing devices needed. Just get away from city lights and
look up. They say you can see fifty to one
hundred meteors every hour. Percy Ds are fast moving and
sometimes leave a persistent train and a fireball. Viewing can
happen anytime after ten pm, but it's best before dawn.

(16:38):
I'm Bree Tennis.

Speaker 5 (16:41):
This is Shannon Gregory, and my morning show is your
Morning Show with Michael de Jono.

Speaker 8 (16:51):
Hi.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
I'm Michael del Jono, and your Morning show can be
heard live as it's happening five to eight am Central
and six to nine Eastern on Great stations like six
WJDX and Jackson Mississippi or Akron's News Talk six forty
WHLO and AKRON Ohio and News Radio five seventy WDAK
and Columbus, Georgia'd love to be a part of your
morning routine, but we're glad you're here.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Now. Enjoy the podcast. This is your morning show. I'm
Michael if you're just waking up. The House gave that
final approval to the nine billion dollar far from the
one trillion that was the goal, but the nine billion
dollar dough spending cut package that's been passed by the House.
The President is ordering the release of all pertinent grand

(17:33):
jury testimony the Jeffrey Epstein case, although much of it
is redacted by a judge's order. Forecasters are telling those
along the Gulf Coast attention, my listeners in Biloxi, beware
of tropical flooding and the prescied meteor shower will be
offering skywatchers a spectacular view of the best meteor shower
of the year. That'll be tonight and tomorrow night, especially

(17:56):
a little bit Sunday night, all weekend long. This is
your chance to watch the rocks fall. One quick talk
back and then we got to get to John.

Speaker 12 (18:02):
Decker wanted to say that forty seven was on fire today.
Also had a question about the try not to suck statement?
Was that first used by Joe Madden or Senator Kennedy
exaggerated pause for effect. The first concert Stick's Cornerstone International Amphitheater, Chicago, Illinois, Chicago.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
Sticks, of course, was a Chicago local band. They were,
they were, they were, Their albums were all over my bedroom.
I think probably Sticks, Kansas. I don't know who I
would throw in after that, and then I went on
into a Christian music phase where that's all I listened to,
but bost Prior to that, probably Boston. Yeah, I would

(18:48):
think that I played but I loved and we have
a story with Robert plant is that with the new
album and starting a tour coming up and we're going
to talk more about that, I would probably say Styx, Zeppelin,
and Kansas would be my three favorites. Now, my brother
was always introducing me to people, like he was the

(19:09):
first to discover the cars. He was the first to
discover Rick Derringer and Ted Nugent and all that other stuff.
But I think those would be my three favorites. But
that was a great talk bang all right, the President
underwent vascular testing after experiencing swelling in his legs. Karen Levitt,
White House Press Secretary, explained in.

Speaker 13 (19:28):
Recent weeks, President Trump noted mild swelling in his lower
legs and keeping with routine medical care and out of
an abundance of caution, this concern was thoroughly evaluated by
the White House Medical.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
Unit, and all the results that the testing came within
normal limits. I do think you can't help but juxtaposition
that that kind of transparency. Here's a president had some
swelling in his legs, it's all this vascular testing, and
then well it's nothing. It's normal with Biden officials pleading

(20:06):
the fifth testifying in congressional hearings. So I do think
the president probably had swallowing his legs. I do think
he probably had his vascular system checked out and it
came back normal. But you don't think they love showing you.
This is how you handle a presidency versus a four

(20:27):
year cover up of a fake presidency, and then when
we try to get to the bottom of why did
you cover it up? Ensure it never happens again, let
alone who was really president nothing, but they pleaded the
fifth It is amazing the difference there. But let's let's
find out more about this. John Decker is going to

(20:48):
join us. John, We've got not one, not two, but
two real serious businesses to do. And then the third
is a big announcement that I'm very proud to make
with you. So let's start with Let's start with the president.
Let's start with the president's health. So, I mean, obviously
had some swelling, Obviously they had it checked out. But boy,
this White House they tell you everything, and I think

(21:08):
that's part of the strategy to show you how they
handle it versus what's being pled the fifth before House.
Oh absolutely, yeah, that's right.

Speaker 6 (21:17):
And that's the way that Caroline Levitt, the White House
Press secretary, explained it.

Speaker 1 (21:20):
You know, it's transparency.

Speaker 6 (21:22):
She said that the president was diagnosed with chronic venus insufficiency.
She called it a benign condition common in people over
the age of seventy the president of seventy nine. Follow
up tests found no evidence of a serious, where life threatening.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
Condition like deep vein thrombosis, and the condition I think was.

Speaker 6 (21:43):
Worse than with the repeated handshakes that the president does
as part of his job when he travels all around
the world, not just around the United States.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
You know, we've often had this conversation and we've danced
around it. But I know the President talks a lot
about George Washington, he talks a lot about Abraham Lincoln.
But my guess is he was most influenced by JFK
and maybe Ronald Reagan. I just sense it. And JFK
was a stick. JFK, beyond all the urgings of Secret Service,

(22:11):
would shake everyone's hand, and Trump is the same way.
I mean, can you imagine you shake so many hands
you're bruising. That's a lot of hands.

Speaker 6 (22:19):
And I told the clip I saw on television last
night where the President even commented upon how many hands
he shook while he was on an overseas trip to
the Middle East. So look, that's part of the job
when I guess you're a politician, but particularly when you're
president of the United States.

Speaker 1 (22:36):
All right, let's go back to the Biden side of things.
Some members of Congress are really pushing to find out
what Biden's mental state was and when and if it
was covered up and hidden, and who orchestrated all that. Probably,
deep down all Americans should be concerned who was using
the auto penant who was really president. So far his
inner circle doing nothing but pleading the fifth. Are we
gonna get anywhere with this? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (22:57):
No, I mean so far to witness both pleading the
fifth Amendment won the president's position. Just on Wednesday, the
chief of staff to former First Lady Jill Biden. I
don't know why that individual had to plead the fifth,
you know, I mean, just answer all the questions if
you have nothing to hide.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
In addition to that, a number.

Speaker 6 (23:17):
Of eights, some of whom you're familiar with, will be
testifying or at least called to testify. We don't know
if they're going to plead the fifth. Ian Sam's, Andrew Bates, Karne,
John Pierre, Yes, she has been called to testify, scheduled
for September the twelfth. And Jeff Zeinz, he's the former
White House chief of staff. He scheduled for September the eighteenth.
And it will be interesting to see if indeed they

(23:39):
testify before that committee.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
Is Podesta or Claim anywhere on these lists?

Speaker 6 (23:45):
Not yet, not yet first chief of staff and you know,
you know, I think he served in that capacity for
about two years before Jeff Science took over and Podesta
served in us your role within the White House, but
he has not yet been called before that committee.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
So John, addition to being a Supreme Corporal Attorney, is
also a White House correspondence covered eight presidents, and I
know your history and study goes beyond even the eight
you've covered. I mean, I guess we could bring up
what we bring up Bill Clinton and the perjury and
the affair, we would bring up Watergate. I'm trying to

(24:24):
think what else we might throw in there. If this
was a cover up and a fake presidency. This is
by far the greatest scandal in American political history, is
it not?

Speaker 6 (24:36):
Well if that scenario that you just presented actually took place, absolutely,
you know. I think that's the reason why Jeff signed
to the White House chiefs of Staff should be upfront
and honest.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
When he testifies, or a call to testify before that committee.

Speaker 6 (24:52):
James Comer, he's the chair of that committee, he said,
perhaps so'll even sebpena Jill Biden. That would be pretty interesting. Yes,
that's that invitation to testify before the House Oversight Committee.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
And if it's not, as I state, then why are
they all pleating the fifth Because yeah, when you plead
the fIF that's like saying guilty. I'm looking at a
great logo and I'm so excited about the logo and
the man and the show behind it. Tell everybody who
loves your visits with us how they can hear more

(25:24):
of you starting Monday.

Speaker 6 (25:25):
Well, starting Monday, I will have a new podcast that
will come out every day fifteen minutes to give you
the latest out of the White House. And you know,
if you like the conversations that Michael.

Speaker 1 (25:38):
And I have and you notice that I do not
weigh in with my opinion, then.

Speaker 6 (25:43):
You will like this podcast. On it is it is
just the straight news. You want to know what's happening
without any kind of skin from the left, from the right.
You just want to know what's happening and figure out
on your own what your opinion is about what's happening.

Speaker 1 (26:00):
At the White House.

Speaker 8 (26:01):
Tune in.

Speaker 6 (26:01):
You'll learn it in a very short amount of time,
while you're getting ready for work, while you're driving to work,
while you're driving home from work. That's the whole idea.
Where can you find it? You just search for it?
On iHeart iHeart is is backing this and I'm so
happy about that and I'm so happy, Michael, that you're
giving me the opportunity to talk about Well, it's called
it's called the White House.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
It's called the White House Briefing Room with John Decker,
And you can just search on your iHeartRadio app. It'll
pop up. You might want to consider, after you've used
me as a preset, to give one of your presets
to it. But no, I go back to the very beginning,
and I think there were a lot of people that thought, oh,
these two aren't going to get along, and you were
my favorite from the beginning, and I think what we
share in common is now I'm a little more guilty,

(26:44):
and I have to be. In my job, you have
to be. But no, I don't like spin from the
right or spin from the left. I don't like shirts
and skins no matter who's playing. So it is hard
as we don't have news consumers anymore. We don't really
have news in this era of the death of journalism,
and so for those that really just want the facts

(27:05):
without the opinion, it's hard to find it. Red said
something off the air, and and I'll bring this up
over Fox. You know, I don't even know if Fox
is a news channel. Anymore. I think it's political entertainment,
and now with Gottfield doing comedy at night, I think
it definitely is. But you are very good, and this
is why I endorse this podcast, and this is why
you're my favorite. You are true and consistent and never break.

(27:29):
If you want to go to somebody that will tell
you what's going on and ask the right questions, this
is the best fifteen minutes. Otherwise you're just going to
get spun and that's just narrative and narrative repeating. That's
not understanding, that's not informed, and that's not news consumption.
So it's with great credibility that I can say you

(27:49):
will deliver fifteen minutes a day, and that's what I
love about you.

Speaker 6 (27:53):
Oh well, I really appreciate that that endorsement coming from you, Michael,
means a tremendous amount to me.

Speaker 1 (27:59):
Ippreciate that.

Speaker 6 (28:01):
And you know, if you watch the White House press
briefings under Joe Biden or under Donald Trump, you'll see
I ask fair questions.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
They're tough questions, and the reason I.

Speaker 6 (28:10):
Get called on regularly is because the White House recognizes
my fairness. And I think that's one of the things
that will come through. In the course of my podcast
every Day, I wish you.

Speaker 1 (28:21):
Nothing but further success exposure. It's the White House Briefing
Room with John Decker and at debuts Monday on your iHeart.

Speaker 3 (28:31):
App It's Your Morning Show with Michael del Chino.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
The nomination of former Fox News host Janine Piro as
the US Attorney for Washington, d C has been approved
by the Senate Now.

Speaker 9 (28:44):
Democrats were present when the panel advanced Piro's nomination to
the full Senate on Thursday. The Democratic members of the
committee stage to walk out after Republican Senator Chuck Grassler
of Iowa cut off debate on the nomination of Amiel
Bove for a spot on the Third Circuit Court of Appeals.
Piro has been DC's acting you attorney since the Senate
failed to advance the nomination of Ed Martin In may.

Speaker 1 (29:04):
A Merke Mayfield. Christy Nome was here in Nashville yesterday
as the TSA is opening two new airport security lanes.

Speaker 14 (29:10):
Homeland Security Secretary Christinome was at the Nashville International Airport
to announce the Honor Lane and a lane for families
traveling with young children. The Honor Lane will be exclusively
for military members and their families. With the family Lane
nomes that she could relate to how difficult it can
be traveling with kids, being a mother and a grandmother herself,
no previously announced passengers can now keep on their shoes

(29:32):
at TSA checkpoints. I'm Tammy Truhio.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
Well, the White House wants to turn the page on
the Jeffrey Epstein case. And in terms of what the
President meant when he called it the Epstein hoax, it
wasn't that there was a hoax with Epstein, but a
Democrats strategy hoax. Caroline Lovett, the White House spokesperson, expanded.

Speaker 13 (29:50):
The President is referring to the fact that Democrats have
now seized on this as if they ever wanted transparency
when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein, which is an as
nign suggestion for any Democrat to make.

Speaker 1 (30:03):
She also went on to say that they've been open
about the whole process.

Speaker 13 (30:06):
It was this president who directed the Department of Justice
and the Attorney General to do an exhaustive review of
all files related to Jeffrey Epstein, which they.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
Did, and it was this president who released and called
for the release of all pertinent grand jury testimony in
the case. On his true social site, he's directed Attorney
General Pambondi to produce testimony subject to court approval. Well,
that's the whole story. These names are retacted by a
judge's order because they were being held until there was

(30:36):
a case, because they came out of deposition from victims,
and even though some of them are guilty, all of
them deserved to be presumed innocent. And then the trial
didn't happen. So this can't go anywhere either. He also
added the scam perpetuated by the Democrats should end right now.
Bondi later wrote on x the DOJ was ready to

(30:56):
move the court Friday to unseal the grand jury transcripts. Well,
at least somebody's finally mentioning you got to go to
a judge first.

Speaker 3 (31:05):
Next year will be our last season.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
The network will be ending the Late Show in May.
And yeah, and what came first, the chicken or the egg?
CBS says it has nothing to do with Colbert or
his content or his ratings. It's just a business decision.
I got to share this real quick before I go
to Rory, because I think he'll he'll love it. This

(31:32):
is a kid rock post financial reasons equals low ratings.
Low ratings equals audience does not like your content. I
mean at some point, Rory, yeah, one plus one does
equal two. But the question is, is this the end
of late night television beginning just like we've seen death

(31:53):
of journalism, or is just just a CBS and CBS alone.
I think Jimmy Kimmel's next his contracts up, he saying
he's not going to renew it. And then I think
NBC might hold your ground because they'll have it all
to themselves. But that's really a big story. The listeners
have jumped on this morning. Everybody is on this death
of death of late night television.

Speaker 15 (32:11):
And Stephen Colbert, well, right, and remember the Late Late
Show with James Gordon was first to really go off
the air and then he was as far as as
far as ending that accepting, but he was losing twenty
million dollars a year in his last year.

Speaker 1 (32:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 15 (32:27):
Yeah, Look, young people don't watch linear TV unless it's sports,
and this is just part of that. The networks are
having trouble unloading some of these other older.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
Networks, these cable channels.

Speaker 15 (32:38):
No one wants to buy them because that's not how
we consume the product anymore.

Speaker 1 (32:42):
Everything is on demand and in clips.

Speaker 15 (32:45):
No one wants a sixty minute show full of nineteen
minutes of commercials.

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Yeah, no, I think that day has passed everybody. The
immediacy and the delivery systems have changed. Right now, people
listening to me, I think there's probably more. I'll rephrase
it this way. Who's listening to you right now? After
the fact? On the podcast? Who's listening live? And are
you listening on your phone, on your iHeart app, on
your local radio station, are you listening to AM? Are

(33:10):
you listening to who knows? But this is all a
part of it. We only have two minutes, and I
want to get to the story that you wanted to
brief asignd. So the President all this talk of reopening Alcatraz,
and then of course Nancy Pelosi came out and spoke
about it as well. Is he serious? Is this up
there like the sugar and coke? Well, it seems to be.

Speaker 15 (33:29):
I mean, he sent the Attorney General and the Interior
Secretary out to tour Alcatraz yesterday, So he seems serious
about it. Now, whether or not it's practical, and if
Congress goes along those are different questions. Some have suggested
it's going to be in the hundreds of millions of
dollars to get this location up and ready again. You know,
they closed it in nineteen sixty three because it needed

(33:51):
millions of dollars of upgrades and was the most expensive
prison in the system, costing three times what it cost
to house federal inmates at other penitentiaries. So I'm not
sure what's changed in that math. It is California in
San Francisco probably gotten only more expensive.

Speaker 1 (34:07):
So we'll see.

Speaker 15 (34:09):
The numbers may just make it too impractical to try
to follow through, but certainly he's exploring the idea.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
All right, well, I can tell you this. Bobby Kennedy
closed it down. I have been to it. It's one
of my favorite tourism places to go. If you've never
done it, you need to do it and walk around
with your headphones. But the notion of it being the
kitchen opened, everything restored, and the ability you know, to
keep people, you know, confined, I can't even imagine what

(34:39):
that dollar amount would be. I can't even imagine because
of even getting the equipment there and the resources there
to do it. If there's going to be a feasibility study.
It's going to come back. If it was, to your point,
if it was unfeasible in nineteen sixty three, it's more
than unfeasible today. All right, don't miss Rory's Weekend Die.
If it's heard on your iHeartRadio app in hundreds of

(34:59):
station across the country, that'll do it for us.

Speaker 3 (35:01):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
