Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, It's Michael.

across the country, like News Talk ninety two point one
and six hundred WREC in Memphis, Tennessee, or thirteen hundred
The Patriot in Tulsa, our Talk six fifty KSTE in Sacramento, California.
We invite you to listen live while you're getting ready
in the morning, and to take us along for the
drive to work. But, as we always say, better late
than never. Thanks for joining us for the podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
This is your Morning Show with Michael gill Chordan.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
This just in, This just in. I'm a much better
host when I haven't slept. Seven minutes after the you
don't like me rested?
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Do you?
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Doesn't anybody want to play? What are you doing? Seriously?
Never mind me, don't be playing with them.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
I was just saying I'm a better host when I
haven't slept. I don't like me when I'm rested and cheerful. Hey,
we get to welcome a new radio station in a
new city. We want to welcome ninety seven to one,
the Big Talker in Flagstaff, Arizona. Let me see that
gives us Phoenix KFY, Tucson, great radio State flag Staff.
(01:03):
Now Wow Arizona battling Ohio for the most your morning.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Show station's big time anyway.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
I want to thank Andy West, the ops manager, and
welcome in all the audience in Flagstaff, Arizona ninety seven
to one, the big Talker, Welcome to your morning show.
I'm the Aarin streaming live on your iHeartRadio app. I'm
Michael del Jorno. And if you're just waking up, We've
covered a lot and in the midst of everything going
on in bombshells.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
So and I keep doing this.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
I hope it doesn't drive you crazy, but just so
you can get your arms around reality. A former not
long ago, just a few years ago, candidate for the
Democrat Party nomination for President of the United States, Tulsey Gabbard,
is now the director of National Intelligence for a publican president.
She was trying to get the nomination to run against.
(01:57):
And she's accusing the former Obama administration of tree and
has what she calls overwhelming evidence to prosecute for the
Russian collusion case. As you have Barack Obama in a
podcast with his wife saying every child needs a gay
mentor otherwise you're ignorant. While all that's going on. What
(02:22):
is America really focused on? Because that would be one
of the three biggest political scandals.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
In American history.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
We were looking at a kiss cam at a Coldplay
concert with a CEO and an HR director Rory. I
don't think I've ever seen anything like this go viral,
and I think everybody saw AI and memes and jokes
all week and long. I'm very uncomfortable with this because
there's children involved, a marriage involved. But you know what
(02:51):
is the very latest. He resigned and they accepted it immediately.
I don't know that anything's happened to her yet, has
it She's stepped aside, leave a absence kind of thing.
Is they sort of hash it out right now?
Speaker 5 (03:03):
But yeah, I think it redefines viral at this point
right the way that this has really taken off. I
think this is also how chat, GPT and other AI
systems now make it so much easier to create a
lot of the memes that have been so clever. Sometimes
it's the Fazzy Bear Misspicky one that makes me laugh
(03:23):
every time.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Well, there were several, there were several that were just
absolutely brilliant. All right, So, because I'd have a son
or a daughter or my wife. You know, they come
show it to me, and they all were picking on
me because they know I'm.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Just not going to delighten this.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
It started feeling like the old days where we would
stone people for for for sin and public and I
just didn't want to be of course it's wrong, it's awful,
but it just feels it feels very very wrong to
join in. But yeah, there, but you have to admit
there were some with AI that were just unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Well right.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
We even saw the you know, sports leagues getting involved,
the fill fanatic and others, you know, doing their take
on things all weekend and long as well. Look, I
think the fact that Love Island has come to an
end means that Americans are looking for something else to
focus on, and this is it. It's I think it's
that summer escapism on display. But as you rightly point out,
(04:18):
let's not forget the real world implications here. You've got spouses,
you've got children, all having some of the worst times
in their lives right now.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Yeah, and I and I'm not cheating on my wife
and you know or anything like that, But I mean
I do sin, and I wouldn't want my sins captured
in this way. And but you, I think you hit
the nail right on the head. I think there's a
lot of us begging to just focus on something other
than tariffs and politics and you know, all that other stuff.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
I think that played a pretty big role. It's not divisive, right,
I mean, you're not. You know, no one's best.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
The one thing we can all agree on stoning these times. Yeah,
well easy now, no, I mean that's kind of what
the feeling is, all right, And anything new we can.
Speaker 5 (05:01):
Expect on this, We'll see what happens to her and
finding out if we learn more about the severance package.
This guy's getting pretty amazing that you got a severance
package for doing this.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
But okay, I thought i'd paid a lot to go
to see Coldplay.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
All right, Roy's going to be back in the third hour.
This release of the grand jury files associated with the
Epstein case. A lot of experts are saying this is
a big nothing burger. We'll see how Rory feels about it.
Can't have your morning show without your voice. I want
to start in Youngstown with James Morning.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
Gentlemen, I'd like to see Tulsea Gambert reopen all the
cabal over Hillary Clinton's destruction of her multiple emails and
destruction of those cell phones, when Comer said, yeah, she
was guilty, but there's no jury that would ever convict her.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Now that we have a new sheriff in town, maybe
things to be different.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Oh gosh, remember that old chestnut an entire server and
a bathroom and a condeventium in Colorado? Do we really
want to take on the sins of the last decade
all in one. Chuck's listening in Yukon, Oklahoma. I presumed
to kt OK from Oklahoma City.
Speaker 7 (06:10):
Hey, Michael Chuck and Yukon, where the heck is fog hat?
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Did we add to foght fog hits? Here's your foghat?
There it is. Slow ride.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I'm in the backseat of Paul Capetano's Camaro going eighty
miles an hour. We're getting ready to exit at Williams
Boulevard and Kenner and he goes seventy five miles into.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
A parked truck.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
All right, we'll get to that blaring and a heavy
fog in the vehicle. And then Paul, who was a
Golden Gloves boxer, was met by his father, who was
a Golden Gloves champion. What do you think the father
did when he showed up to scene the crime. I
think he boxed his ears, punched him right in the
face and decked him. Wow, believable dysfunction. And I had
(07:01):
to dance in a talent show that night. That's the
night I did the tango with Shannon Ryan, who was
like the crush of my life. I finally got to
kiss her that night.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Oh wow.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
And I had chapped lips and I couldn't feel it.
But we all walked out. My brother when I saw
because I ended up in the front seat. Why are
you laughing? We could have died. Keith Andrews, who does
a liner for your morning show, he was in the
back seat with me.
Speaker 8 (07:28):
We have a brand new radio station Georgia that work
today in flag Staff and it was a.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Very serious accident.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
My brother was wedged inside underneath you know, the dashboard.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
I ended up in the front seat. We all got out.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Nobody was injured until Paul got punched by his father.
Speaker 8 (07:48):
And you couldn't You couldn't enjoy your kiss because of
your chapped lips.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Well, isn't that unfortunate? That is unfortunate.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I mean you know, here's the biggest kiss of your life,
and you got chap lips and I and feel.
Speaker 8 (08:00):
It where it's up the nerve to go in and
get the get a little smoochy smooch.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
And that's what happened, all right, polls a plenty, Look,
it is very varied. Actually, you know what, before I
do the poles of plenty, can I play one clip
real quick?
Speaker 1 (08:17):
We got time, right, we got three minutes in the segment.
Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Okay, this is Fox this weekend, and they're looking at
this Obama administration manufactured politicized intel, the Russia Russia Russia
collusion case.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
I can't remember how to say her name, wrote to
Borota Mora. What's her name? Oh? I forgot her name
on Fox?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
And she got the congressman with her and she asks
this question.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I want to take it right from here.
Speaker 9 (08:50):
How was it that this cabal of senior people in
the Obama White House was able to convince so many
people of this lie when they had no evidence whatsoever
of it?
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Does anybody want to take that answer? Before he gives it?
Speaker 2 (09:04):
He gives a great one, by the way, But before
we even let Byron Donalds answer it, what I love
about the question is I laid out for a half
hour and if you missed it and you weren't up yet,
you'll hear the podcast in the first hour. If this
is true, there are three now most scandalous corruption scandals,
(09:37):
the three greatest in American political history, and they all
happened within about four or five years of each other.
Because this would be first to try to get him
not elected, the second would be the shadow campaign to
save the democracy, and the third would be faking a
Biden presidency. But when it's all said and done, I'm
with what's her name, Maria Borderarola?
Speaker 1 (10:00):
What is it? Somebody say it, I'm not Maria barger Roma.
Thank you. That's what I was looking for. Her question
is the MVP of the day.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
In the answer to that question is all you really
need to take away.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
First of all, it didn't work. Trump got elected.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Second of all, it did work when Biden got elected
and they hit him, But that ultimately didn't work because
Trump came right back, and in some ways we may
be better. We got a better Trump for the wait,
a better Trump for two first terms instead of a
first and a second. I mean, I could go on
and on but I'm distracting from the topic. But her
(10:43):
question is what we really need to understand. If what
Telsea Gabbard is bringing forward is true, how the heck
did you do this? Now you're to the matrix. Now
you're to the death of journalism, to the heart of
what we haven't dealt with yet and the dysfunction we're
(11:06):
still living in. But here's Byron's answer.
Speaker 7 (11:11):
Well, they got away with it because once they leaked
these false these false narratives and false reports, you had
big media organizations who just went lockstock and barrel, did
not fact check, did not go and do the extra work,
did not do any due diligence whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Because we're living in a death of journalism, they.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
Just followed and towed the company line. And then you
have the deep careers in the intelligence community who either
they were afraid of being fired or having their clearances
revoked or b were so concerned about a Donald Trump
presidency that they felt it was okay to concox false information.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
It boom boom boom. That's Byron with the biggest point.
That's Byron with their excuse for this, that and the
other this we had to do it. We couldn't have
Donald Trump be president. We're living in Barack Obama Land.
(12:09):
This is postmodern America. Barack, You're ready to go off
to a high position internationally to run the world, and
Hillary's going to finish the job of destroying America. We
had to do it, or as one of our listeners said,
or maybe you asked it, or Red Asseid, somebody asked, it,
is that not insurrection number one? Then they come back
in twenty twenty with the shadow campaign, same excuse. Oh,
(12:33):
we had to do it. Of course, it's wrong to
change election laws. Of course, it was wrong to weaponize COVID.
Of course it was wrong to misinform the president during
COVID and have him walk into that trap, just like
we'd deleater have him walk into an insurrection trap. We
had to change election laws, We had to harvest ballots.
We had to fix it because we couldn't have another
(12:56):
term of Donald Trump. We had to save the democracy.
And then we had to hide Joe Biden even though
he was incompetent, and know he wasn't running the country,
and know we didn't tell the American people he wasn't.
And it was more than an auto pen. It was
really a handful of people, but we had to do it.
Democracy was at stake. I've always liked Byron Donalds a boy,
(13:23):
did he nail that? I mean, did she nail that?
With the question? Did he nail that?
Speaker 1 (13:27):
With the answer? That's what's more important than what.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
They did how they did it, Because if you don't
stop how they did it, and you don't understand how
they did it, they'll do it again, is the point.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
This is Your Morning Show with Michael Del Chrono.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Telsea Gabbard is accusing the Obama administration officials of treason,
claiming they withheld evidence on the Russian interference in the
twenty sixteen election.
Speaker 10 (13:52):
They decided that they would do everything possible to try
to undermine his ability to do what voters task President
Trump to do.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
Director of National Intelligence to classified documents Friday and said
she has evidence the Obama administration manufactured and politicized intelligence
to lay the groundwork for an FBI probe into the
Russian election interference.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
She says accountability is needed.
Speaker 10 (14:18):
Those responsible, no matter how powerful they are and were
at that time, no matter who was involved in creating
this treasonous conspiracy against the American people, They all must
be held accountable.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
And will they or will this be another added to
the Trump list that they didn't follow through on accountability.
Data tech company Astronomer says that CEO has resigned after
being caught on the kisscam at a Coldplay concert in Massachusetts.
Speaker 11 (14:46):
In a post on social media Saturday, the company said
Andy Byron has tendered his resignation and the board of
directors has accepted. Astronomer said it's board will now start
the search for Byron's replacement as co founder and chief
product officer Pete Nujoy and he used to serve as
interim CEO. More than seventy six million people have viewed
the viral video of the kisscam incident at Chillette Stadium.
(15:08):
I'm Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Health officials are urging Florida swimmers to look out for
flesh eating bacteria when they're on the beach.
Speaker 12 (15:13):
Four people have died and seven have fallen sick recently
from Vibrio vulnificus, a bacteria which thrives in warm coastal
areas and leads to rapidly expanding skin infections. It could
also cause vomiting and diarrhea. Officials save people with open wounds, piercings,
and fresh tattoos or at a higher risk and should
avoid warm beach water.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
I'my S. Taylor.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
In sports, American Scottie Scheffler won the British Open. Scheffler
won by four shots over a second place finisher, Harris English.
It's the second major of the year and fourth of
his career. He now needs just the US Open to
complete the Grand Slam. How about them Tiger's school eleven strikeouts,
only four hits. Tigers went to one over the Rangers.
D Backs bested the Condinals five to three. Guardians outslug
(15:56):
the A's eight to two, Raise lost five three to
the O's brew creuse six y five. Over there, the
Dodgers Angels beat the Phillies eight to two, Padrey's one
eight to one over the Nets.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Good morning, guys. This is Jeff in Pleasant View, Tennessee.
Speaker 8 (16:09):
And my morning show is your Morning Show with Michael
Dale JOHNO.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Hi, I'm Michael, and your Morning show is heard on
great radio stations across the country like one oh five,
nine twelve fifty w HNZ and Tampa, Florida News Radio
five seventy wk b N and Youngstown, Ohio and News
Radio one thousand KTOK in Oklahoma City. Love to have
you listen to us live in the morning, and of
course we're so grateful you came for the podcast.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
Enjoy. Got this from Bill Penn.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Hey, Michael, know how much you liked the idea of
retiring to Maine.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
I'm just looking for someplace cool to go. That's it.
I'm sick of being hot.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
You really should check out Flagstaff, very nice in the summer.
I thought he was joking, so we made a reference
ninety seven to one. The Big Talker Flagstaff, Arizona joins
the Your Morning Show Kitchen Table family this morning. Welcome
to all in Flagstaff and Andy westi ops manager, thank
you so much for giving your morning show a home.
We're now in Phoenix, Tucson and flag Staff and thrilled
(17:10):
to be there. So here I am welcoming them to
our table. And here's Bill saying, you really ought to
think about living there.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
And I thought it was a joke.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
In other words, yeah, that's what I want to do,
and I go go to the desert to get cool.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
But no.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Summers in Flagstaff typically are lows in the forties and
the highs in the seventies eighty about the high the
hottest it gits.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
In the winter, it's in the forties.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
In the spring it's in the forties to low seventies,
and in the fall fifties to seventies.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
That may be the place for me, maybe the exact place.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
I'm here welcoming flag Staff, flag Staff.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
You may be welcoming me soon.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I'm saying it was so hot this weekend in Nashville
all you could do was stay inside. And then I've
got the play concert tomorrow night. And you know me,
I don't like heat. I'm gonna have a panic attack
sitting outside ninety degree weather. You'd be swimming through that atmosphere. Well,
that and I don't hydrate anyway, for just waking up.
We had Hillary tell us it takes a village. Now
(18:13):
we have Barack Obama telling us every child should have
a gay mentor otherwise you grow up ignorant. Meanwhile, Telsea
Gabbert had this for Obama and his cabal and administration.
She says she has overwhelming evidence that they all committed
treason with the Russian collusion case. And President Trump is
marking his six months of his second term by saying
(18:35):
the US is the hottest and most respected country in
the country in the world. The Midwest is dealing with
the threat of flash floods now. Over fifty million people
from Kansas to Carolina are under heat alerts and the
missing is down to just three in Kirk County where
that flooding took place. Now that's your top stories at
thirty eight minutes after the hour. These are what we
(18:58):
call your sound of the day.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
People who majored in online activision with a minor and
puberty block a little bit y.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Any of you in the media clearly mist the art
of the dealers. Be cool, It's going to work out. All.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
Let's start with that Telsea Gabbard story and situation.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
First.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Telsi appeared over the weekend and on Sunday morning Futures
with Maria Arta Roma.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
Did I do it right? Close enough? And here's what
she had to say.
Speaker 10 (19:36):
My role as the Director of National Intelligence, I oversee
eighteen different intelligence community elements, and in the months leading
up to the November twenty sixteen election, the intelligence community
agreed that there was no intelligence that reflected that Russia
was trying to.
Speaker 13 (19:55):
Hack the election in favor of either candidate.
Speaker 10 (19:59):
The evidence showed the intelligence showed that again Russia did
not have either the intent nor the capability to be
able to impact the outcome of the United States election.
Speaker 13 (20:10):
So it was very striking when we.
Speaker 10 (20:13):
Look back again at the documents that I declassified and released,
that shows there was a shift.
Speaker 13 (20:19):
In early December.
Speaker 10 (20:20):
The first week of December, again another document was produced
by the intelligence media President's Daily Brief that was consistent
with every other assessment that was done previously leading up
to the election.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
All Right, so all the intelligence says Russia didn't have
the intent or the ability and in no way interfered
with the election.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Well, then how did it become such a big scandal.
Speaker 10 (20:44):
Russia did not, this is after the election, now, did
not attempt to affect the outcome of the American election.
Speaker 13 (20:54):
That was never published.
Speaker 10 (20:56):
Hours before would have gone into President Obama's President's Daily Brief.
It was pulled by a senior level intelligence official saying
that they had to pull it because they had received
new guidance.
Speaker 13 (21:09):
The very next day. This meeting was called a.
Speaker 10 (21:13):
National Security Council meeting, bring all together all of the
senior leaders of President Obama's cabinet, and the topic that
was put forward was a sensitive matter.
Speaker 13 (21:23):
The tasks that came out of that.
Speaker 10 (21:25):
Meeting was coming from President Obama directing the intelligence community,
then Obama's OD and I Director Clapper to produce a
document to produce an intelligence assessment that detailed not if,
but how Moscow affected the outcome of the election.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
That right, So I'm just going to chime in so
you can follow the bouncing ball. All the intelligence pointed
to Russia was not it was not their intent, nor
did they have the capability, but they in no way
interfered with the election. And that was going to be
in the President's briefing. And then it was pulled, which
begs the question who made them pull it? And the
(22:08):
answer is the president himself.
Speaker 13 (22:10):
It already occurred, electing Donald Trump to the presidency.
Speaker 10 (22:13):
This document that they published in January of twenty seventeen
was the foundational groundwork that they continued to reference over
and over and over again to enact this year's long
coup against President Trump.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Now, what I think is interesting, and I know it
sounds the day and I should shut up and just
let the sound speak for themselves. But hasn't everyone kind
of felt there's something fishy about the way the President's
handling the Epstein issue. I think there's a realistic explanation,
(22:49):
but then ne forgive it. The realistic explanation is you
can't go anywhere. There's no black book with all these names.
There are sealed depositions were victims who claimed they were
victimized and drop names, and all of those names have
been redacted by an order of a judge. Why because
(23:11):
they'll never get their day in court. Because the accused
killed himself, supposedly, so you can't begin to go through
these names. Donald Trump's not hiding these names because he
might be on it, I mean, and that's one theory,
but he couldn't if he wanted to. That's why we're
going to talk with Rory a little bit later on.
Even this releasing of the grand jury testimony, that's not
(23:33):
going to do anything. It's not going to show you anything.
You want accountability and you want names. What I hear
over and over from people is, look, I know all
these people didn't molest underage people or sexually abuse, arranged,
trafficked women, but.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Some did and they need to go to jail.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Yeah, but you can't try this case, so you would
have to either get the judges to release the names,
and I don't know that they will because that would
unfair to those who didn't. Or you need these victims
to come back and do a civil trial and go
after money to where it could come out and then
(24:12):
you could add criminal charges.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
But the way the White House is.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Handling it and playing along, it makes you wonder they
have a bigger hand to play. And after sounds of
the day, you wonder, is that bigger hand you're focused on, Epstein,
we're about to hand you Obama. Next up, the economy
(24:39):
and economist Stephen Moore talking to Fox News about the
Trump economic miracle they're now calling it.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
I wrote the book with Arthur laffer Or.
Speaker 14 (24:48):
They came out nine months ago called the Trump Economic Miracle,
and if anything, we understated the miracle that has happened.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
They're quite right.
Speaker 14 (24:55):
In six months this is spectacular, you know. I you know,
when I die, I hope that they put on my
tombstone that I worked for two of the greatest presidents
of the last fifty years, Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump.
And one of the things that Trump is doing is
he's kind of finishing the Reagan agenda. I think Reagan
was one of our greatest presidents. But there are a
lot of things Reagan tried to do, Sean, I mean,
(25:18):
you were there that he couldn't get done.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
And let me just give you an example.
Speaker 14 (25:21):
Just in the last week or so, we've gotten rid
of the World Bank, We've gotten rid of the corrupt
foreign foreign aid institutions. We have gotten rid of the
subsidies for corporation for public broadcasting, something forty years ago
he tried to do. And by the way, you know,
Elmo is the richest guy in the world. Why do
we have to be subsidizing public radio.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
And public TV?
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Amazing at one man's miracle is another party's nightmare house.
Democratic leaders really liked so Ron Mom Donnie. But is
there a danger for the Democrats? And the answer, of
course is yes.
Speaker 15 (26:00):
The leadership of the Democratic Party is really really nervous
because the squad has a new star. And here we've
got someone who is out here in favor of Soviet
style government grocery stores that was rejected in the last
presidential election. I think it will be rejected again. To me,
this is the Democrats not using their time in the
(26:22):
wilderness very well. They are out there I think still
trying to figure out why they lost last time. I
don't think they've come to anything realistic about what happened,
and I think they might be still in sort of
Michael Ducaucus should be our next nominee phase, and they
have not pivoted yet to centrism and Bill Clinton, so
I think they might be in the wilderness for a
(26:43):
little while longer.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
So the right can't talk enough about Mom Donnie, talk
enough about the Democrats. No leader, no plan, no agenda. Yeah,
Barack Obama on a podcast with a shell Obama saying
every child needs a gay mentor. I mean, they are
a little lost in the wilderness. But then the left,
(27:07):
they can't talk enough about Epstein.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
And do you think there will be a vote next
week whether or not to require these Grandeury documentsary released.
Speaker 16 (27:16):
I absolutely think that they are going to run away
with this as quickly as possible.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
We saw a number of oh, this is Jasmine Crocketts,
so you're probably wondering how she going to refer to
the president.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Oh, she's got a good one for you.
Speaker 16 (27:27):
Listen, Republicans that just skipped a previous vote this week.
Speaker 17 (27:31):
So I don't anticipate that we will get to any
resolution on this.
Speaker 16 (27:35):
I think that they want to again shuttle defense. They
want to show that they are loyal to this. You know,
I don't even know what to call him. I've called
him so many things, but this want to be Hitler
for sure. They want to pledge the loyalty to him,
and they know that he does not want this released.
I think that they also are concerned about the damage
(27:56):
that it may do if he's trying to hide it.
Speaker 17 (27:59):
They under stand that it is most.
Speaker 16 (28:01):
Likely problematic for him as well as the MAGA brand,
as well as the Republicans.
Speaker 17 (28:07):
So I don't anticipate that they will be on board for.
Speaker 16 (28:10):
Doing anything that may harm them or their fearless Leader's
Hitler wannabee.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
And again that's just that the left. They can't talk
about the Epstein files enough, the right can't talk enough
about Mom Donnie. Is it benefiting either of them? Well,
certainly not the left, that's for sure.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
Three political egos stuck in the race right now running
against them, and none of them will get out, and
that's just going to.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
Split the vote up.
Speaker 4 (28:43):
So political egotism maybe the thing that takes down New
York City in the end. I do want to say
one thing about Mandami, and that is this, I keep saying,
this is going to force the Democrats down the road
and posters when we poll in future cycles down the road,
we won't just say Democrat next to a name, and
(29:03):
a lot of states and a lot of instances, it
will see a Demos say Democrats slash Democrats socialist because
unlike MAGA, which by the way, is a slogan and
the aspiration is not a party, Democrats socialist is in
essence of party. And I believe the Democrats and this
is certainly not Dan and the Centrists and the people
trying to save his party, they're being forced over by
(29:24):
the embracing of this guy and the fact that more
of these are spilling out in other blue cities and states,
just in various places, not at one time, but it
will spell out that I think you're going to see
a merger of the two or a big time splinter
that's going to have a big effect.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
Ah, Matt twri Polster seeing what I see. Listen, the
Democrats have been socialists for a long time. In fact,
their platform has matched the nineteen twenty socialist party platform
for a long time. But this will brand them forever
as socialists. And that's not something you can back away from,
not anytime soon.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
And that is also your sounds of the deck. She's
going to get smoked.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
He's got too stopped.
Speaker 8 (30:08):
I really don't know what he said at the end
of this, and I don't think he knows what he
said either.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
It's got to be a big book understanding.
Speaker 13 (30:16):
I'm going in.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Well, the big news is President Trump. I love your
garbage truck.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chno.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
Well, you're trying to get to the bottom of Epstein.
A director of National Intelligence Telsea Gammer drops a new bomb.
The Obama cabal and administration at his directive was behind
the Russia Russia Russia collusion case. There never was evidence
of Russia an intent or in action trying to disrupt
(30:48):
the election. Scotti Shffler wins the British Open and President
Trump is suing the Wall Street Journal and its owner,
Rupert Murdoch for twenty billion dollars. And may I add
as I bring on our White House Chorus to John Decker,
he's two and oh. Suing media outlets a little up
for Rupert to think about.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
Tell Us what's behind this lawsuit?
Speaker 18 (31:08):
John Well, he's two and oh because of a defamation
lawsuit that he filed against ABC News and George Stephanopolis
that was settled for fifteen million dollars and a similar
amount of a settlement as it relates to the President's
lawsuit against sixty minutes in CBS News, that settlement announced
earlier this month.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
And maybe he's going for.
Speaker 18 (31:30):
A trifecta with this lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal.
This concerns a story published by the journal last week,
a story in which they alleged that the President, when
he was a private citizen back in two thousand and three,
sent a letter to Jeffrey Epstein associated with his fiftieth birthday.
The letter, according to the Journal, contains the President's signature,
(31:54):
it's racy and nature, it has a drawing of a
naked woman. All according to the Wall Street Journal. The
President denies all of that. He believes he's been defamed
and that's the reason that this lawsuit was filed late
Friday afternoon in federal court. Michael in South Florida. Will
see whether or this also leads to a settlement. A
(32:15):
pretty pricey settlement by the Wall Street Journal.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
This opens up a lot of can of worms. One
can of worm would be everybody going, well, there's no
way this is the Wall Street Journal. The Wall Street
Journal wouldn't They would have vetted this letter a million
ways to one before they would have ever released it.
There's no way they would have made that mistake. And
yet I look at it and I go, well, you know,
this is a president that doesn't file a lawsuit against
(32:40):
everybody that does something against him. But he did ABC
and one, he did CBS and one. So I don't
know which to believe. Time will tell, but there is
some credibility. When this president files a civil lawsuit, he
usually has grounds.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
But we'll wait and see how it plays out. The
other is yeah different, How it impacts Fox Fox News?
Speaker 18 (32:59):
Yeah, well that's right, Rupert Murdoch, primary shareholder of the
Wall Street Journal. Rupert Murdock, primary shareholder.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Of Fox News.
Speaker 18 (33:07):
And you're right, how does it affect Fox? How does
it affect the Wall Street Journal? Are they shut out?
You know, in terms of being called on at the
White House Press briefing, being called on by President Trump
when there are opportunities to ask the questions of the President.
I don't know, we'll have to wait and see. You know,
no briefing scheduled today. Tomorrow, there will be an opportunity.
(33:30):
I'll be in the pool tomorrow in the Oval Office
when the President meets with the President of the Philippines,
will see if a representative from the Journal or Fox
News is also in the Oval Office at that time.
But you're right, you know, this is a president that
often seeks retribution against.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
Those he feels have wronged him in some way.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
All right, John, I'll be back again tomorrow. Great reporting.
I will say this, I've never found Fox to be conservative.
I've always found it to be establishment Republican, and I
think when it comes to part of that, they were
never pro Trump at first. I will also I will
also add I've had Fox on all morning long. I
haven't seen anything about the letter or the lawsuit all
(34:10):
morning long.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michael Nheld Show Now.
Hi, It's Michael.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
Your morning show can be heard on great radio stations
across the country, like News Talk ninety two point one
and six hundred WREC in Memphis, Tennessee, or thirteen hundred
The Patriot in Tulsa, our Talk six fifty KSTE in Sacramento, California.
We invite you to listen live while you're getting ready
in the morning, and to take us along for the
drive to work. But, as we always say, better late
than never. Thanks for joining us for the podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
This is your Morning Show with Michael gill Chordan.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
This just in, This just in. I'm a much better
host when I haven't slept. Seven minutes after the you
don't like me rested?
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Do you?
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Doesn't anybody want to play? What are you doing? Seriously?
Never mind me, don't be playing with them.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
I was just saying I'm a better host when I
haven't slept. I don't like me when I'm rested and cheerful. Hey,
we get to welcome a new radio station in a
new city. We want to welcome ninety seven to one,
the Big Talker in Flagstaff, Arizona. Let me see that
gives us Phoenix KFY, Tucson, great radio State flag Staff.
(01:03):
Now Wow Arizona battling Ohio for the most your morning.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Show station's big time anyway.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
I want to thank Andy West, the ops manager, and
welcome in all the audience in Flagstaff, Arizona ninety seven
to one, the big Talker, Welcome to your morning show.
I'm the Aarin streaming live on your iHeartRadio app. I'm
Michael del Jorno. And if you're just waking up, We've
covered a lot and in the midst of everything going
on in bombshells.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
So and I keep doing this.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
I hope it doesn't drive you crazy, but just so
you can get your arms around reality. A former not
long ago, just a few years ago, candidate for the
Democrat Party nomination for President of the United States, Tulsey Gabbard,
is now the director of National Intelligence for a publican president.
She was trying to get the nomination to run against.
(01:57):
And she's accusing the former Obama administration of tree and
has what she calls overwhelming evidence to prosecute for the
Russian collusion case. As you have Barack Obama in a
podcast with his wife saying every child needs a gay
mentor otherwise you're ignorant. While all that's going on. What
(02:22):
is America really focused on? Because that would be one
of the three biggest political scandals.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
In American history.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
We were looking at a kiss cam at a Coldplay
concert with a CEO and an HR director Rory. I
don't think I've ever seen anything like this go viral,
and I think everybody saw AI and memes and jokes
all week and long. I'm very uncomfortable with this because
there's children involved, a marriage involved. But you know what
(02:51):
is the very latest. He resigned and they accepted it immediately.
I don't know that anything's happened to her yet, has
it She's stepped aside, leave a absence kind of thing.
Is they sort of hash it out right now?
Speaker 5 (03:03):
But yeah, I think it redefines viral at this point
right the way that this has really taken off. I
think this is also how chat, GPT and other AI
systems now make it so much easier to create a
lot of the memes that have been so clever. Sometimes
it's the Fazzy Bear Misspicky one that makes me laugh
(03:23):
every time.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Well, there were several, there were several that were just
absolutely brilliant. All right, So, because I'd have a son
or a daughter or my wife. You know, they come
show it to me, and they all were picking on
me because they know I'm.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Just not going to delighten this.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
It started feeling like the old days where we would
stone people for for for sin and public and I
just didn't want to be of course it's wrong, it's awful,
but it just feels it feels very very wrong to
join in. But yeah, there, but you have to admit
there were some with AI that were just unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Well right.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
We even saw the you know, sports leagues getting involved,
the fill fanatic and others, you know, doing their take
on things all weekend and long as well. Look, I
think the fact that Love Island has come to an
end means that Americans are looking for something else to
focus on, and this is it. It's I think it's
that summer escapism on display. But as you rightly point out,
(04:18):
let's not forget the real world implications here. You've got spouses,
you've got children, all having some of the worst times
in their lives right now.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Yeah, and I and I'm not cheating on my wife
and you know or anything like that, But I mean
I do sin, and I wouldn't want my sins captured
in this way. And but you, I think you hit
the nail right on the head. I think there's a
lot of us begging to just focus on something other
than tariffs and politics and you know, all that other stuff.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
I think that played a pretty big role. It's not divisive, right,
I mean, you're not. You know, no one's best.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
The one thing we can all agree on stoning these times. Yeah,
well easy now, no, I mean that's kind of what
the feeling is, all right, And anything new we can.
Speaker 5 (05:01):
Expect on this, We'll see what happens to her and
finding out if we learn more about the severance package.
This guy's getting pretty amazing that you got a severance
package for doing this.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
But okay, I thought i'd paid a lot to go
to see Coldplay.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
All right, Roy's going to be back in the third hour.
This release of the grand jury files associated with the
Epstein case. A lot of experts are saying this is
a big nothing burger. We'll see how Rory feels about it.
Can't have your morning show without your voice. I want
to start in Youngstown with James Morning.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
Gentlemen, I'd like to see Tulsea Gambert reopen all the
cabal over Hillary Clinton's destruction of her multiple emails and
destruction of those cell phones, when Comer said, yeah, she
was guilty, but there's no jury that would ever convict her.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Now that we have a new sheriff in town, maybe
things to be different.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Oh gosh, remember that old chestnut an entire server and
a bathroom and a condeventium in Colorado? Do we really
want to take on the sins of the last decade
all in one. Chuck's listening in Yukon, Oklahoma. I presumed
to kt OK from Oklahoma City.
Speaker 7 (06:10):
Hey, Michael Chuck and Yukon, where the heck is fog hat?
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Did we add to foght fog hits? Here's your foghat?
There it is. Slow ride.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I'm in the backseat of Paul Capetano's Camaro going eighty
miles an hour. We're getting ready to exit at Williams
Boulevard and Kenner and he goes seventy five miles into.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
A parked truck.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
All right, we'll get to that blaring and a heavy
fog in the vehicle. And then Paul, who was a
Golden Gloves boxer, was met by his father, who was
a Golden Gloves champion. What do you think the father
did when he showed up to scene the crime. I
think he boxed his ears, punched him right in the
face and decked him. Wow, believable dysfunction. And I had
(07:01):
to dance in a talent show that night. That's the
night I did the tango with Shannon Ryan, who was
like the crush of my life. I finally got to
kiss her that night.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Oh wow.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
And I had chapped lips and I couldn't feel it.
But we all walked out. My brother when I saw
because I ended up in the front seat. Why are
you laughing? We could have died. Keith Andrews, who does
a liner for your morning show, he was in the
back seat with me.
Speaker 8 (07:28):
We have a brand new radio station Georgia that work
today in flag Staff and it was a.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Very serious accident.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
My brother was wedged inside underneath you know, the dashboard.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
I ended up in the front seat. We all got out.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Nobody was injured until Paul got punched by his father.
Speaker 8 (07:48):
And you couldn't You couldn't enjoy your kiss because of
your chapped lips.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Well, isn't that unfortunate? That is unfortunate.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I mean you know, here's the biggest kiss of your life,
and you got chap lips and I and feel.
Speaker 8 (08:00):
It where it's up the nerve to go in and
get the get a little smoochy smooch.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
And that's what happened, all right, polls a plenty, Look,
it is very varied. Actually, you know what, before I
do the poles of plenty, can I play one clip
real quick?
Speaker 1 (08:17):
We got time, right, we got three minutes in the segment.
Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Okay, this is Fox this weekend, and they're looking at
this Obama administration manufactured politicized intel, the Russia Russia Russia
collusion case.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
I can't remember how to say her name, wrote to
Borota Mora. What's her name? Oh? I forgot her name
on Fox?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
And she got the congressman with her and she asks
this question.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I want to take it right from here.
Speaker 9 (08:50):
How was it that this cabal of senior people in
the Obama White House was able to convince so many
people of this lie when they had no evidence whatsoever
of it?
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Does anybody want to take that answer? Before he gives it?
Speaker 2 (09:04):
He gives a great one, by the way, But before
we even let Byron Donalds answer it, what I love
about the question is I laid out for a half
hour and if you missed it and you weren't up yet,
you'll hear the podcast in the first hour. If this
is true, there are three now most scandalous corruption scandals,
(09:37):
the three greatest in American political history, and they all
happened within about four or five years of each other.
Because this would be first to try to get him
not elected, the second would be the shadow campaign to
save the democracy, and the third would be faking a
Biden presidency. But when it's all said and done, I'm
with what's her name, Maria Borderarola?
Speaker 1 (10:00):
What is it? Somebody say it, I'm not Maria barger Roma.
Thank you. That's what I was looking for. Her question
is the MVP of the day.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
In the answer to that question is all you really
need to take away.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
First of all, it didn't work. Trump got elected.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Second of all, it did work when Biden got elected
and they hit him, But that ultimately didn't work because
Trump came right back, and in some ways we may
be better. We got a better Trump for the wait,
a better Trump for two first terms instead of a
first and a second. I mean, I could go on
and on but I'm distracting from the topic. But her
(10:43):
question is what we really need to understand. If what
Telsea Gabbard is bringing forward is true, how the heck
did you do this? Now you're to the matrix. Now
you're to the death of journalism, to the heart of
what we haven't dealt with yet and the dysfunction we're
(11:06):
still living in. But here's Byron's answer.
Speaker 7 (11:11):
Well, they got away with it because once they leaked
these false these false narratives and false reports, you had
big media organizations who just went lockstock and barrel, did
not fact check, did not go and do the extra work,
did not do any due diligence whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Because we're living in a death of journalism, they.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
Just followed and towed the company line. And then you
have the deep careers in the intelligence community who either
they were afraid of being fired or having their clearances
revoked or b were so concerned about a Donald Trump
presidency that they felt it was okay to concox false information.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
It boom boom boom. That's Byron with the biggest point.
That's Byron with their excuse for this, that and the
other this we had to do it. We couldn't have
Donald Trump be president. We're living in Barack Obama Land.
(12:09):
This is postmodern America. Barack, You're ready to go off
to a high position internationally to run the world, and
Hillary's going to finish the job of destroying America. We
had to do it, or as one of our listeners said,
or maybe you asked it, or Red Asseid, somebody asked, it,
is that not insurrection number one? Then they come back
in twenty twenty with the shadow campaign, same excuse. Oh,
(12:33):
we had to do it. Of course, it's wrong to
change election laws. Of course, it was wrong to weaponize COVID.
Of course it was wrong to misinform the president during
COVID and have him walk into that trap, just like
we'd deleater have him walk into an insurrection trap. We
had to change election laws, We had to harvest ballots.
We had to fix it because we couldn't have another
(12:56):
term of Donald Trump. We had to save the democracy.
And then we had to hide Joe Biden even though
he was incompetent, and know he wasn't running the country,
and know we didn't tell the American people he wasn't.
And it was more than an auto pen. It was
really a handful of people, but we had to do it.
Democracy was at stake. I've always liked Byron Donalds a boy,
(13:23):
did he nail that? I mean, did she nail that?
With the question? Did he nail that?
Speaker 1 (13:27):
With the answer? That's what's more important than what.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
They did how they did it, Because if you don't
stop how they did it, and you don't understand how
they did it, they'll do it again, is the point.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
This is Your Morning Show with Michael Del Chrono.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Telsea Gabbard is accusing the Obama administration officials of treason,
claiming they withheld evidence on the Russian interference in the
twenty sixteen election.
Speaker 10 (13:52):
They decided that they would do everything possible to try
to undermine his ability to do what voters task President
Trump to do.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
Director of National Intelligence to classified documents Friday and said
she has evidence the Obama administration manufactured and politicized intelligence
to lay the groundwork for an FBI probe into the
Russian election interference.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
She says accountability is needed.
Speaker 10 (14:18):
Those responsible, no matter how powerful they are and were
at that time, no matter who was involved in creating
this treasonous conspiracy against the American people, They all must
be held accountable.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
And will they or will this be another added to
the Trump list that they didn't follow through on accountability.
Data tech company Astronomer says that CEO has resigned after
being caught on the kisscam at a Coldplay concert in Massachusetts.
Speaker 11 (14:46):
In a post on social media Saturday, the company said
Andy Byron has tendered his resignation and the board of
directors has accepted. Astronomer said it's board will now start
the search for Byron's replacement as co founder and chief
product officer Pete Nujoy and he used to serve as
interim CEO. More than seventy six million people have viewed
the viral video of the kisscam incident at Chillette Stadium.

Health officials are urging Florida swimmers to look out for
flesh eating bacteria when they're on the beach.
Speaker 12 (15:13):
Four people have died and seven have fallen sick recently
from Vibrio vulnificus, a bacteria which thrives in warm coastal
areas and leads to rapidly expanding skin infections. It could
also cause vomiting and diarrhea. Officials save people with open wounds, piercings,
and fresh tattoos or at a higher risk and should
avoid warm beach water.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
I'my S. Taylor.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
In sports, American Scottie Scheffler won the British Open. Scheffler
won by four shots over a second place finisher, Harris English.
It's the second major of the year and fourth of
his career. He now needs just the US Open to
complete the Grand Slam. How about them Tiger's school eleven strikeouts,
only four hits. Tigers went to one over the Rangers.
D Backs bested the Condinals five to three. Guardians outslug

Speaker 1 (16:37):
Enjoy. Got this from Bill Penn.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Hey, Michael, know how much you liked the idea of
retiring to Maine.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
I'm just looking for someplace cool to go. That's it.
I'm sick of being hot.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
You really should check out Flagstaff, very nice in the summer.
I thought he was joking, so we made a reference
ninety seven to one. The Big Talker Flagstaff, Arizona joins
the Your Morning Show Kitchen Table family this morning. Welcome
to all in Flagstaff and Andy westi ops manager, thank
you so much for giving your morning show a home.
We're now in Phoenix, Tucson and flag Staff and thrilled
(17:10):
to be there. So here I am welcoming them to
our table. And here's Bill saying, you really ought to
think about living there.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
And I thought it was a joke.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
In other words, yeah, that's what I want to do,
and I go go to the desert to get cool.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
But no.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Summers in Flagstaff typically are lows in the forties and
the highs in the seventies eighty about the high the
hottest it gits.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
In the winter, it's in the forties.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
In the spring it's in the forties to low seventies,
and in the fall fifties to seventies.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
That may be the place for me, maybe the exact place.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
I'm here welcoming flag Staff, flag Staff.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
You may be welcoming me soon.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I'm saying it was so hot this weekend in Nashville
all you could do was stay inside. And then I've
got the play concert tomorrow night. And you know me,
I don't like heat. I'm gonna have a panic attack
sitting outside ninety degree weather. You'd be swimming through that atmosphere. Well,
that and I don't hydrate anyway, for just waking up.
We had Hillary tell us it takes a village. Now
(18:13):
we have Barack Obama telling us every child should have
a gay mentor otherwise you grow up ignorant. Meanwhile, Telsea
Gabbert had this for Obama and his cabal and administration.
She says she has overwhelming evidence that they all committed
treason with the Russian collusion case. And President Trump is
marking his six months of his second term by saying
(18:35):
the US is the hottest and most respected country in
the country in the world. The Midwest is dealing with
the threat of flash floods now. Over fifty million people
from Kansas to Carolina are under heat alerts and the
missing is down to just three in Kirk County where
that flooding took place. Now that's your top stories at
thirty eight minutes after the hour. These are what we
(18:58):
call your sound of the day.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
People who majored in online activision with a minor and
puberty block a little bit y.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Any of you in the media clearly mist the art
of the dealers. Be cool, It's going to work out. All.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
Let's start with that Telsea Gabbard story and situation.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
First.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Telsi appeared over the weekend and on Sunday morning Futures
with Maria Arta Roma.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
Did I do it right? Close enough? And here's what
she had to say.
Speaker 10 (19:36):
My role as the Director of National Intelligence, I oversee
eighteen different intelligence community elements, and in the months leading
up to the November twenty sixteen election, the intelligence community
agreed that there was no intelligence that reflected that Russia
was trying to.
Speaker 13 (19:55):
Hack the election in favor of either candidate.
Speaker 10 (19:59):
The evidence showed the intelligence showed that again Russia did
not have either the intent nor the capability to be
able to impact the outcome of the United States election.
Speaker 13 (20:10):
So it was very striking when we.
Speaker 10 (20:13):
Look back again at the documents that I declassified and released,
that shows there was a shift.
Speaker 13 (20:19):
In early December.
Speaker 10 (20:20):
The first week of December, again another document was produced
by the intelligence media President's Daily Brief that was consistent
with every other assessment that was done previously leading up
to the election.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
All Right, so all the intelligence says Russia didn't have
the intent or the ability and in no way interfered
with the election.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Well, then how did it become such a big scandal.
Speaker 10 (20:44):
Russia did not, this is after the election, now, did
not attempt to affect the outcome of the American election.
Speaker 13 (20:54):
That was never published.
Speaker 10 (20:56):
Hours before would have gone into President Obama's President's Daily Brief.
It was pulled by a senior level intelligence official saying
that they had to pull it because they had received
new guidance.
Speaker 13 (21:09):
The very next day. This meeting was called a.
Speaker 10 (21:13):
National Security Council meeting, bring all together all of the
senior leaders of President Obama's cabinet, and the topic that
was put forward was a sensitive matter.
Speaker 13 (21:23):
The tasks that came out of that.
Speaker 10 (21:25):
Meeting was coming from President Obama directing the intelligence community,
then Obama's OD and I Director Clapper to produce a
document to produce an intelligence assessment that detailed not if,
but how Moscow affected the outcome of the election.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
That right, So I'm just going to chime in so
you can follow the bouncing ball. All the intelligence pointed
to Russia was not it was not their intent, nor
did they have the capability, but they in no way
interfered with the election. And that was going to be
in the President's briefing. And then it was pulled, which
begs the question who made them pull it? And the
(22:08):
answer is the president himself.
Speaker 13 (22:10):
It already occurred, electing Donald Trump to the presidency.
Speaker 10 (22:13):
This document that they published in January of twenty seventeen
was the foundational groundwork that they continued to reference over
and over and over again to enact this year's long
coup against President Trump.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Now, what I think is interesting, and I know it
sounds the day and I should shut up and just
let the sound speak for themselves. But hasn't everyone kind
of felt there's something fishy about the way the President's
handling the Epstein issue. I think there's a realistic explanation,
(22:49):
but then ne forgive it. The realistic explanation is you
can't go anywhere. There's no black book with all these names.
There are sealed depositions were victims who claimed they were
victimized and drop names, and all of those names have
been redacted by an order of a judge. Why because
(23:11):
they'll never get their day in court. Because the accused
killed himself, supposedly, so you can't begin to go through
these names. Donald Trump's not hiding these names because he
might be on it, I mean, and that's one theory,
but he couldn't if he wanted to. That's why we're
going to talk with Rory a little bit later on.
Even this releasing of the grand jury testimony, that's not
(23:33):
going to do anything. It's not going to show you anything.
You want accountability and you want names. What I hear
over and over from people is, look, I know all
these people didn't molest underage people or sexually abuse, arranged,
trafficked women, but.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Some did and they need to go to jail.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Yeah, but you can't try this case, so you would
have to either get the judges to release the names,
and I don't know that they will because that would
unfair to those who didn't. Or you need these victims
to come back and do a civil trial and go
after money to where it could come out and then
(24:12):
you could add criminal charges.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
But the way the White House is.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Handling it and playing along, it makes you wonder they
have a bigger hand to play. And after sounds of
the day, you wonder, is that bigger hand you're focused on, Epstein,
we're about to hand you Obama. Next up, the economy
(24:39):
and economist Stephen Moore talking to Fox News about the
Trump economic miracle they're now calling it.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
I wrote the book with Arthur laffer Or.
Speaker 14 (24:48):
They came out nine months ago called the Trump Economic Miracle,
and if anything, we understated the miracle that has happened.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
They're quite right.
Speaker 14 (24:55):
In six months this is spectacular, you know. I you know,
when I die, I hope that they put on my
tombstone that I worked for two of the greatest presidents
of the last fifty years, Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump.
And one of the things that Trump is doing is
he's kind of finishing the Reagan agenda. I think Reagan
was one of our greatest presidents. But there are a
lot of things Reagan tried to do, Sean, I mean,
(25:18):
you were there that he couldn't get done.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
And let me just give you an example.
Speaker 14 (25:21):
Just in the last week or so, we've gotten rid
of the World Bank, We've gotten rid of the corrupt
foreign foreign aid institutions. We have gotten rid of the
subsidies for corporation for public broadcasting, something forty years ago
he tried to do. And by the way, you know,
Elmo is the richest guy in the world. Why do
we have to be subsidizing public radio.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
And public TV?
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Amazing at one man's miracle is another party's nightmare house.
Democratic leaders really liked so Ron Mom Donnie. But is
there a danger for the Democrats? And the answer, of
course is yes.
Speaker 15 (26:00):
The leadership of the Democratic Party is really really nervous
because the squad has a new star. And here we've
got someone who is out here in favor of Soviet
style government grocery stores that was rejected in the last
presidential election. I think it will be rejected again. To me,
this is the Democrats not using their time in the
(26:22):
wilderness very well. They are out there I think still
trying to figure out why they lost last time. I
don't think they've come to anything realistic about what happened,
and I think they might be still in sort of
Michael Ducaucus should be our next nominee phase, and they
have not pivoted yet to centrism and Bill Clinton, so
I think they might be in the wilderness for a
(26:43):
little while longer.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
So the right can't talk enough about Mom Donnie, talk
enough about the Democrats. No leader, no plan, no agenda. Yeah,
Barack Obama on a podcast with a shell Obama saying
every child needs a gay mentor. I mean, they are
a little lost in the wilderness. But then the left,
(27:07):
they can't talk enough about Epstein.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
And do you think there will be a vote next
week whether or not to require these Grandeury documentsary released.
Speaker 16 (27:16):
I absolutely think that they are going to run away
with this as quickly as possible.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
We saw a number of oh, this is Jasmine Crocketts,
so you're probably wondering how she going to refer to
the president.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Oh, she's got a good one for you.
Speaker 16 (27:27):
Listen, Republicans that just skipped a previous vote this week.
Speaker 17 (27:31):
So I don't anticipate that we will get to any
resolution on this.
Speaker 16 (27:35):
I think that they want to again shuttle defense. They
want to show that they are loyal to this. You know,
I don't even know what to call him. I've called
him so many things, but this want to be Hitler
for sure. They want to pledge the loyalty to him,
and they know that he does not want this released.
I think that they also are concerned about the damage
(27:56):
that it may do if he's trying to hide it.
Speaker 17 (27:59):
They under stand that it is most.
Speaker 16 (28:01):
Likely problematic for him as well as the MAGA brand,
as well as the Republicans.
Speaker 17 (28:07):
So I don't anticipate that they will be on board for.
Speaker 16 (28:10):
Doing anything that may harm them or their fearless Leader's
Hitler wannabee.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
And again that's just that the left. They can't talk
about the Epstein files enough, the right can't talk enough
about Mom Donnie. Is it benefiting either of them? Well,
certainly not the left, that's for sure.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
Three political egos stuck in the race right now running
against them, and none of them will get out, and
that's just going to.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
Split the vote up.
Speaker 4 (28:43):
So political egotism maybe the thing that takes down New
York City in the end. I do want to say
one thing about Mandami, and that is this, I keep saying,
this is going to force the Democrats down the road
and posters when we poll in future cycles down the road,
we won't just say Democrat next to a name, and
(29:03):
a lot of states and a lot of instances, it
will see a Demos say Democrats slash Democrats socialist because
unlike MAGA, which by the way, is a slogan and
the aspiration is not a party, Democrats socialist is in
essence of party. And I believe the Democrats and this
is certainly not Dan and the Centrists and the people
trying to save his party, they're being forced over by
(29:24):
the embracing of this guy and the fact that more
of these are spilling out in other blue cities and states,
just in various places, not at one time, but it
will spell out that I think you're going to see
a merger of the two or a big time splinter
that's going to have a big effect.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
Ah, Matt twri Polster seeing what I see. Listen, the
Democrats have been socialists for a long time. In fact,
their platform has matched the nineteen twenty socialist party platform
for a long time. But this will brand them forever
as socialists. And that's not something you can back away from,
not anytime soon.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
And that is also your sounds of the deck. She's
going to get smoked.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
He's got too stopped.
Speaker 8 (30:08):
I really don't know what he said at the end
of this, and I don't think he knows what he
said either.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
It's got to be a big book understanding.
Speaker 13 (30:16):
I'm going in.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Well, the big news is President Trump. I love your
garbage truck.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chno.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
Well, you're trying to get to the bottom of Epstein.
A director of National Intelligence Telsea Gammer drops a new bomb.
The Obama cabal and administration at his directive was behind
the Russia Russia Russia collusion case. There never was evidence
of Russia an intent or in action trying to disrupt
(30:48):
the election. Scotti Shffler wins the British Open and President
Trump is suing the Wall Street Journal and its owner,
Rupert Murdoch for twenty billion dollars. And may I add
as I bring on our White House Chorus to John Decker,
he's two and oh. Suing media outlets a little up
for Rupert to think about.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
Tell Us what's behind this lawsuit?
Speaker 18 (31:08):
John Well, he's two and oh because of a defamation
lawsuit that he filed against ABC News and George Stephanopolis
that was settled for fifteen million dollars and a similar
amount of a settlement as it relates to the President's
lawsuit against sixty minutes in CBS News, that settlement announced
earlier this month.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
And maybe he's going for.
Speaker 18 (31:30):
A trifecta with this lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal.
This concerns a story published by the journal last week,
a story in which they alleged that the President, when
he was a private citizen back in two thousand and three,
sent a letter to Jeffrey Epstein associated with his fiftieth birthday.
The letter, according to the Journal, contains the President's signature,
(31:54):
it's racy and nature, it has a drawing of a
naked woman. All according to the Wall Street Journal. The
President denies all of that. He believes he's been defamed
and that's the reason that this lawsuit was filed late
Friday afternoon in federal court. Michael in South Florida. Will
see whether or this also leads to a settlement. A
(32:15):
pretty pricey settlement by the Wall Street Journal.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
This opens up a lot of can of worms. One
can of worm would be everybody going, well, there's no
way this is the Wall Street Journal. The Wall Street
Journal wouldn't They would have vetted this letter a million
ways to one before they would have ever released it.
There's no way they would have made that mistake. And
yet I look at it and I go, well, you know,
this is a president that doesn't file a lawsuit against
(32:40):
everybody that does something against him. But he did ABC
and one, he did CBS and one. So I don't
know which to believe. Time will tell, but there is
some credibility. When this president files a civil lawsuit, he
usually has grounds.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
But we'll wait and see how it plays out. The
other is yeah different, How it impacts Fox Fox News?
Speaker 18 (32:59):
Yeah, well that's right, Rupert Murdoch, primary shareholder of the
Wall Street Journal. Rupert Murdock, primary shareholder.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Of Fox News.
Speaker 18 (33:07):
And you're right, how does it affect Fox? How does
it affect the Wall Street Journal? Are they shut out?
You know, in terms of being called on at the
White House Press briefing, being called on by President Trump
when there are opportunities to ask the questions of the President.
I don't know, we'll have to wait and see. You know,
no briefing scheduled today. Tomorrow, there will be an opportunity.
(33:30):
I'll be in the pool tomorrow in the Oval Office
when the President meets with the President of the Philippines,
will see if a representative from the Journal or Fox
News is also in the Oval Office at that time.
But you're right, you know, this is a president that
often seeks retribution against.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
Those he feels have wronged him in some way.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
All right, John, I'll be back again tomorrow. Great reporting.
I will say this, I've never found Fox to be conservative.
I've always found it to be establishment Republican, and I
think when it comes to part of that, they were
never pro Trump at first. I will also I will
also add I've had Fox on all morning long. I
haven't seen anything about the letter or the lawsuit all
(34:10):
morning long.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michael Nheld Show Now.
