(00:41):
or what do they do when they're not on your
morning show. Whether you're looking for a bio of one

(01:04):
We put it all together with one stop shopping at

morning show on the air, your morning show of the podcast,
and your morning show online dot com in the website.
It's there to serve you. It's up now. Appreciate everyone
who worked hard on that. I think I looked pretty
night waking up this morning, the President announced a new
(01:24):
trade deal with the twenty seven nations in the European
Union to lower the tariff to fifteen percent, and in
addition to that, seven hundred and fifty billion has to
be spent on energy by the EU and they have
to invest six hundred billion more in the US and
continue to make military purchase. It was a big, beautiful
tariff deal for the President to follow the big beautiful
(01:47):
tariff deal with Japan. I think that leaves China as
the probably the last biggie that is outstanding before in
August first deadline. Roy O'Neil's keeping an eye on the
deadline and those who have yet to come to the table.
M Yeah, good morning, Michael.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
A lot of these are still frameworks and we're anxious
to get more of the details, especially on this EU
agreement that was announced yesterday while the President was in Scotland.
Some unknowns in here, but still overall a positive sign
that this deal has been done. The head of the
EU saying that this provides a lot of the stability
(02:22):
that many of the member countries and the companies in
them were looking for so that they can better plan.
Now that they sort of it appears they have these
numbers locked in. And as you said, Commerce Secretary Lutnik
telling Fox News Sunday that Friday is the day no
more delays, that for most of the world, the tariffs
will start to hit on Friday, August first.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
And you mentioned that China meeting.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
We've got two days of talks that are now happening
in Stockholm, Sweden, with the US and China at the
table trying to hammer out some big deal.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
So President never goes anywhere, you know. Look back at
the Cutter and the Saudi Arabian trip and we wondered
what was that all about, the women with their hair
and the barads of camels, And then it made a
lot more sense after the air strikes in Iran. Everybody
thought he was just going to golf in Scotland, although
there were rumors there would be visits potentially with the
(03:19):
Prime Minister of the head of the EU, and there
were and here comes this big announcement and that leaves China. Now,
China has been just sitting there as what the President
refers to a pretty clear framework. So what's the leap
between now and Friday from pretty clear framework to an
actual deal.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Yeah, you know, there's some speculation that they might kick
the can down a bit when it comes to a
China deal. But as the Commerce Secretary said, you know,
just because the tariffs start on Friday, it doesn't mean
they're not still not open to getting a new deal
with some country that may be facing new tariffs that
they that they had those other countries do more to
open up their markets for US exports.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
So you know, there's still ready to deal.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
But just saying that they're going to start deposing the
tariffs on Friday, you know, obviously China is a complicated relationship.
They've been trying to go around the new tariffs, you know,
by shipping things to Vietnam and then having Vietnam ship
it over and or Cambodia. That was one of their
attempts at workarounds but let's see if they can get
a more concrete deal again, if not a deal, at
(04:22):
least a better framework in place to provide that stability
that a lot of companies have been looking for.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Yeah, the deal with the European Union just reminds us
uncertainty as a two way street. And everybody has always
said the President's going to blow up the economy with
this crazy tariff deal. It's going to implode on him.
The deals are coming together, and what you heard from
the European Union was they wanted to eliminate uncertainty. You know,
we wanted to keep the flow of business going between
these two big traders. I just thought nobody ever says
(04:50):
that out loud. President's created some uncertainty, Yes, and we've
seen it in our market. It has since mostly recovered.
He's created a lot of uncertainty for others like Canada
that's still dangling like a part of simple out there.
I am going to work very hard to make sure
we have as big a window as possible, Rory, because
your story coming up in the third hour and artificial
intelligence and what the explosion means in terms of electricity
(05:12):
as well as other unintended consequences. We're going to need
some time for that. We'll do that in the third hour.
All right, if you're just waking up, we kind of
want to just real quickly review because people are waking
up every minute. The President was doing more than golfing
in Scotland, all right, that's obvious. And he has put
together a deal with twenty seven nations in the European Union.
(05:35):
It'll be a fifteen percent levee on most imports coming
from the twenty seven nations in the European Union. Now
this will include automobiles, which is huge, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors. In
addition to the fifteen percent levee, they've also had to
commit to buying seven hundred and fifty billion dollars worth
(05:57):
of US energy. But wait, there's more, and vest six
hundred billion more because you always hear this from reporters,
but most of this is stuff they were investing anyway. No,
this is six hundred billion more than it already is
investing in America as well as continue to make major
military equipment purchases. As one reporter, as the president or
(06:22):
the head of the EU, what did the US have
to concede? And the long answer was, well, we get
to continue to do business together and zero nothing. I mean,
it's going to be really hard for the left to
spend this as not a real deal and not a
(06:43):
good deal and not an impactful deal. And this days
after five hundred and fifty billion and economic investment from
Japan in addition to a tariff deal. I mean, now
(07:03):
you're starting to talk about a lot of revenue from
the tariffs, a lot of revenue from these half trillion
to three quarter trillion dollar investment deals. Our White House
correspondent John Decker asked the President if you considered a
rebate to the American people, to which he said he is,
but he's most committed in paying down the debt. These
deals not only are not dying like the left said,
(07:24):
they were going to destroying our economy like the left
said they would, they're huge victories. So much so what
to do with the money becomes the big question. Just
because you turn on the radio and I'm the host,
I mean, your voice is worth as much as mine
if you want to use the talkback button. I like
(07:48):
the using of these investments to create jobs, higher paying jobs,
and I like using the revenue to pay down the debt.
I do not want to see this turn into means
tested rebate checks and picking winners and losers. I think
that would be the only way to reach into the
jaws of victory and find a few cavities of defeat.
(08:09):
While the stock market is rising in futures in response
to this huge deal, and it's just more winning for
the president. For the left not so much. In fact,
I don't know whether they call this a left defeat
like Colbert or a victory for Trump. But Media Matters,
(08:32):
the left wing media watchdog is reportedly facing an existential
crisis as it drowns in government investigation, legal expense from
defamation cases, and loss of donors. Now, I'm sure like
the and by the way, I'd like to go on
record because that's in Sounds of the day. There was
(08:55):
a big protest because now the left has spun it
that Donald tru Trump for CBS to cancel Stephen Colbert.
He wasn't losing forty million dollars. Trump silenced him. Fox
will report that there were twenty people at the rally.
I have the entire Now, I guess you know one
(09:17):
thing I didn't do. Count the cameraman who's taking the picture,
but how I don't know if the cameraman is one
of them. I counted twelve person in the speaker is thirteen.
So if you think Stephen Colbert's ratings are bad, here's
the big protest in support of Stephen Colbert and his firing,
and a whopping thirteen people show up, one being the speaker,
(09:38):
of course, blaming it all on Trump that it's disgusting.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
But we can't even depend on the courts to defend
on knocks you. And that is why we are here today,
to be maliciously.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Compliant to our first Amendment right was to stand up
to this for shame.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
And that's exactly what.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Now Jay Leno would tell you. The reason Stephen Colbert died,
the reason Kimmel's probably not far behind, maybe only Jimmy
Fallon will survive, is because they alienated half their audience
by being so partisan, something Johnny Carson warned of back
in the seventies, don't ever do this, and they did it,
and then like Saturday Night Live, all three of them
(10:24):
did it. So now you alienated half your audience, and
then all that's left is split between three of you,
creating such a void for those that still watch cable
television or still watch terrestrial television. All you to do
is launch Gutfield, and there was a half of an
audience out there unserved. But what you really ended up
creating was a matrix with late night television. Now the
(10:47):
rights all watching Gutfeld, and the left is watching the
three now two, soon to be one, and somewhere in
there is the younger people have moved on to digital
and podcasts. Nobody's doing appointment television, certainly not around a
network or a cable although I did some appointment television
over the weekend with Untamed, What a spectacular little mini
(11:10):
series of six ess that's a Netflix. A girl dies
and the mystery unfolds, all in one of our beautiful
national parks. I also watched The Amateur, which I thought
was terrific. I also watched Happy Gilmore two, which was
(11:31):
not so terrific. It was cute. But notice what I
didn't say I watched. I didn't watch Sarah Ilive, and
I wasn't watching any late night television or cable news.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
You know.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
So you know, just like in life, we die from living.
Living is dangerous. You can die of an accident, you
can be killed every choice you make, and noy'body lights
a cigarette saying I want lung cancer. Nobody takes a
sip of a drink saying I want cirrhosis of the liver.
But life is our cause of death. And then finally,
in an autopsy, they'll tell you what the final straw,
the broke, the camel back cause if death was, but
(12:02):
you really died from living. And I think that's all
the above when it comes to Late Night, and it's
all of the above when it comes to Media Matters.
They just did a huge round of layoffs in May. There,
according to New York Times, citing internal documents and leven
sources familiar with the situation, the Democratic Line Group reports
(12:23):
to monitor and combat conservative misinformation in the United States.
Only they've been caught in misinformation and now they're left wing.
Philanthropist donors like George Soros reportedly bleeding donors and funders.
Media Matters also lost around two million dollars spending off
an investigation by the Republican State Attorneys General overclaims that
(12:45):
it manipulated data to smear Elon Musk's X. In fact,
if you add up all the cases from their poor.
And remember they were formed to stop right wing missing
information with left wing misinformation, and all of their legal
defense alone adds up to fifteen million dollars, and their
(13:07):
donors are drying up. Media matters is dying like Stephen
Colbert that died, and I'm sure they'll try to blame
that on Trump too, But keep your eye on the
real cause of death. All right, when we come back
next and have a little time alone, I want to
talk about AOC. There's a great story today. AOC isn't
(13:30):
radical enough for the anti Israel left comes out of
the UK from the Telegraph. Is this the seed that
will birth and Islamic splintering off from the Democrat Party
along with a socialist splintering off? Or will they unite?
We should talk about that in a journey of discovery.
All right? Have you have you heard of karraaluma. It's
(13:53):
an edible cactus from India and it's known for naturally
suppressing appetite. It's one of the key ingredients and the
breakthrough weight loss supplement called Lean. If you're trying to
lose weight this summer, sick of yo yoing up and down,
lean could be your answer. It was mine. Doctors behind
Lien say it's the closest they've come to replicating the
(14:15):
benefits of the popular injections and without Needleslean helps you
maintain healthy blood sugar levels, control appetite and cravings. But
it doesn't stop there. It's rare. Natural ingredients are formulated
to help your body burn fat by converting it into energy.
And let me tell you something that is the greatest
feeling energy you'll ever experience. And the best part, no needles,
(14:36):
just results. Now, everything I've just said has not been
evaluated by the FDA. The product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure,
or prevent any disease. And it is not a substitute
or an alternative for care from your health care provider.
It's a supplement I take. I've lost twelve pounds and
I feel great, and hundreds and thousands of others are
(14:57):
feeling the same way. I want to get you started
with twenty percent use the code y MS twenty. Go
to take Lean dot com yms You're a Morning Show
twenty for twenty percent off. So go to take Lean
dot Com y Ms twenty for twenty percent off Yms
twenty at Takelean dot com This is your Morning Show
(15:17):
with Michael del Chrono to tell us the Oklahoma We
go in Jamie and.
Speaker 5 (15:23):
It comes well to do with that money from the
tariff neils. I mean putting it back into the economy
is you know, to pay off.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
That pay down the day.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
It's going to be the best option, I think. But
if he does decide to get a rebate and do
a means testing, maybe that means testing should be looking
at who's not paying taxes and who is. If you're
not working and paying taxes, then the people who are
working should get more of the money than those who
just take taxes.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Well, anybody that's buying anything has been paying an inflation.
I mean, if you're gonna go the rebate route, take
a portion, rebate it equally to all Americans. I mean,
just you know, I remember when I used to be
in management, and I have seen this and I have
lived it, and I can tell you it's so. First
of all, people ultimately want to work someplace they're appreciated
(16:12):
and they can contribute, that they're a part of many
people going in one direction, and that they play an
important part and they're appreciated for it. That's first, and foremost.
Secondly to love what they do and love who they
do it with, and love who they do it for.
But third right under that becomes compensation. And I used
to just walk up to people they do a great
job of storm coverage or something and hand them one
(16:34):
hundred dollars bill to take your wife out to dinner.
You were terrific today. I'm telling you those hundred dollar
bills made much more impact than twenty thousand dollars year
salary increases. So I think you should ultimately pay down
the debt. If you take a portion of it and
give it back and rebate, even if it ends up
being a few hundred dollars for everybody, you've made your
political point. But the ultimate thing you owe the American
(16:58):
people is to pay down the debt. We shouldn't have
to pay for your out of control spending and then
expect a good deal in order to get some small
rebate back. Besides the rebate never ekles what we paid.
Appreciate the calls, and you never have to wait in line.
Use that talkback button.

I mean, Ione, who's over here with a real personal

Speaker 1 (19:29):
But I don't want the cash money.
Speaker 8 (19:31):
I don't want him dangling money in front of us

Steve all right, always revealing. By the way, if you're
new to the show, we're joking. We don't really fight
like this. Always revealing, often entertaining time for your sounds
of the day. Uh, this is going to be big
next hour when we visit with John Decker. I mean,
(20:21):
if his head can fit in the studio. He asked
this question of the President of the United States, which
has Angela responding, me responding, in all of us responding,
And it all began with John Decker's question, Listen, do
you think there is the possibility of a rebate to
the American public in terms of.
Speaker 9 (20:40):
All of that money?
Speaker 10 (20:41):
We're thinking about that.
Speaker 9 (20:42):
Actually, we have so much money coming in we're thinking.
Speaker 10 (20:46):
About a little rebate. But the big thing we want
to do is pay down debt. But we're thinking about
a rebate. That is a very good ty.
Speaker 9 (20:55):
Just made a lot of news.
Speaker 10 (20:56):
We're thinking about a rebate because we have so much
money coming in from tariff, that tariff that's a little
rebake four people of a certain incum level might be
very nice.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
For by Sin's the President of the United States responding
to our own John Decker, and yeah, he did make
a lot of news. And then the question becomes, are
you just signed this deal with the twenty seven nations
of the EU in addition to a fifteen percent levy
on all imports and think of the automobiles alone what
that could translate to. But in addition to that, the
EU has to buy seven hundred and fifty billion dollars
(21:29):
worth of energy and invest an additional six hundred billion
dollars in the US as they continue to buy military
hardware from US. It's a huge deal. Japan was a
huge deal. The President's pretty confident he's going to have
a huge deal with China before the end of the week.
There's going to be a lot of money. Now, listen,
(21:49):
what caused debt in the first place. I have researched
the debt of the United States and you can trace
back the original taxation was for World War and then
when the war was over, it went away. Then it
came back for another war and never went away, and
it's grown into an enslavement where you work till August
(22:12):
or September for the government before you start making any
money for yourself. How did we get there, Well, you'll
trace COVID, You'll trace Obama. Obama doubled two hundred and
fifty years of debt in eight years. America clearly has
a size of government, role of government, and overspending problem.
(22:35):
In fact, revenue has been at record levels and it's
not enough to keep up. But that's where my appreciation
for this president comes in because he's addressed spending in
dough She's going to address spending through Congress in the
coming years. He's defining the proper size and role of
(22:57):
government and what is the role in response onsibility of
the self governed. He's dealing with the crime and deportation
and securing of the border. All a big drain. That's
where a lot of the money's gone. And this is
a big part of it. This is what puts the
CBO's projections on its ear because this money paying down
(23:21):
the debt along with a big, beautiful bill is how
you allow the American people to have more opportunity keep
more of their money and we don't need Besides, even
if you did a rebate check. It's not going to
be enough for some. They'll never be a big enough check.
Keep your eye on the ball and prioritize the plan.
(23:44):
And the last thing you want to get into is
some means tested type rebate check. If you're going to
do the rebate check, you better do it for everybody
equal and just a little a symbolic one. That's what
got us into that one hundred dollars analogy. But finish
your deal, pay down the debt with it makes all
the future forecasts the reality. As he broke down the deal,
(24:09):
you thought he was just golfing right wrong. European Union.
Speaker 9 (24:15):
Is going to agree to purchase from the United States
seven hundred and fifty billion dollars worth of energy. Seven
hundred and fifty billion dollars worth of energy.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
They are going to.
Speaker 9 (24:32):
Agree to invest into the United States six hundred billion
dollars more than they're investing already. So they're investing a
large amount of money.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
You know what that amount of money is. It's very substantial.
Speaker 9 (24:49):
But they're going to invest an additional six hundred billion dollars.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
I like that because the media always loves to counter
with the generic already spending that money. That's not new money, now,
this is six hundred billion. In addition, can't wait to
see how leftist reporters handle that.
Speaker 9 (25:08):
They're agreeing to open up their countries to trade at
zero tariff. So that's a very big factor opening up
their countries. All of the countries will be opened up
to trade with the United States at zero tariff. And
they're agreeing to purchase a vast amount of military equipment.
(25:30):
We don't know what that number is, but.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
It's it's so if you're a reporter in the room, right,
my gosh, that's a lot. I mean, just getting your
arms around automobiles alone, man, that's a lot. Fifteen percent
tariff on everything coming in from twenty seven nations in
(25:52):
the EU. That on top of that seven hundred and
fifty billion, and energy purchases in addition to that, and
which you're already investing in America an additional six hundred
billion an investment plus you're going to buy them all.
So what's the US having to give up? Listen, anybody else, yes, ma'am.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
Question for the president?
Speaker 1 (26:13):
What are the US consessions? What is the US giving
up in the deal.
Speaker 11 (26:18):
So, as we the starting point was an imbalance, a
surplus on our side and a deficit on the US side,
and we wanted to rebalance the trade relation, and we
wanted to do it in a way that trade goes
on between the two of us.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Translation, we avoided getting cut off.
Speaker 11 (26:37):
Across the Atlantic, because the two biggest economies should have
a good trade flow between US and I think we
hit exactly the point we wanted to find. Rebalance, but
enable trade on both sides, which means good jobs on
both sides of the Atlantic, means prosperity on both sides
of the Atlantic, and that was important for us.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
The answer to the question nothing zero. They open up
trade to us at a zero percent tariff, We teariff
all their goods and services coming here fifteen percent, plus
seven hundred and fifty billion in energy they have to buy,
plus six hundred billion more in investment over what they're
already doing, plus buying a military purchase. And me, that's
(27:21):
the art of the deal, right. We got everything, we
gave up nothing, and they're liking it. So Donald Trump
keeps winning. What's the left doing not winning?
Speaker 12 (27:34):
A new Wall Street Journal poll shows almost two thirds
of voters disapprove of the party The lowest level in
over three decades.
Speaker 13 (27:41):
And it make matters worse.
Speaker 12 (27:42):
Voters prefer howard Publicans handle most major issues affecting the country,
including the economy, inflation, immigration, tariffs, foreign policy, and even Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Now keep in mind too, and the Left is doubling
down against these majors with their miners. So there's still
dying on the hills of wokeness, still dying on the
hills of open border. They have no credibility left. They
told you all this arft stuff was going to destroy
(28:14):
the economy. It's nothing but be the final cherry on
the whipped cream of making America's economy great again. And
you're heading into midterm elections. And on the issue of
the economy, the GOP have a plus twelve advantage. On
the issue of inflation. The GOP has a plus ten
(28:34):
advantage on immigration, a plus seventeen on a legal immigration
plus twenty four. They trust Republicans more with handling of
the border, security and justice for those that are committing
other crimes, as well as legal immigration tariffs. They now
have a seven point lead foreign policy, an eight point lead.
(28:57):
Even on the war in Ukraine a five point lead.
I mean, you're a Democrat, what are you supposed to do?
And you're out there promising giant blue waves, but are
they coming? Time to go to the board with Karnaki.
Speaker 14 (29:14):
The makeup of that Republican majority that got decimated in
twenty eighteen is very different from the makeup of the
Republican majority right now.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
And that's what we want to show you right here.
Speaker 14 (29:25):
Republicans in twenty eighteen were exposed all over the place.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Check this out here.
Speaker 14 (29:30):
Republicans in twenty eighteen in districts that had been carried
by Hillary Clinton in the twenty sixteen presidential election anti
Trump districts, there were twenty five of them. In the
twenty eighteen midterms. There are only three Republicans right now
representing districts that.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Donald Trump didn't. So Republicans in office and districts dominated
by Hillary Clinton in an election she lost and dominated
by Kamala Harris in an election she lost, goes from
twenty five to three disc and that's before redistrict.
Speaker 14 (30:01):
Can carry in the last presidential election. How about the
next rung here call these sort of marginally pro Trump districts.
These are districts that Trump won by less than seven
and a half points. There were twenty three of these
in twenty eighteen midterms.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
There's almost a.
Speaker 14 (30:18):
Similar number now nineteen, not quite as high, but we're
highlighting these two groups because this is where Republicans suffered
almost all of their damage in the twenty eighteen midterms.
Of those twenty five from anti Trump districts in twenty eighteen,
Republicans lost twenty two of those seats. Of the twenty
three that were marginally pro Trump, Republicans lost two thirds
(30:39):
of them. You can't see it because they're read unread there,
but fifteen to the twenty three, twenty two, and fifteen
thirty seven losses of seats by Republicans in these two
categories in twenty eighteen, that's almost all of the losses
that they suffered. It was a forty seat defeat for them.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
And you can see right.
Speaker 14 (30:56):
Now again only three in anti Trump districts, in a
slightly smaller number nineteen in those marginally pro Trump districts.
You could play this out and look at the other
types of districts here. There were a couple of upsets
in twenty eighteen of Republicans in solidly pro Trump districts,
and then there were no Republican losses in this category.
The Trump landslide districts in twenty eighteen, and look, the
(31:17):
Republicans have fewer overall seats now, but there are more Republicans.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
So the seats that are up for grabs for Republicans
and dominated Trump areas of twenty percent or more one
hundred and thirty four, not one hundred and sixteen, and
strong districts won by Trump seven and a half to
twenty percent, it's at sixty four one by seven and
a half or less nineteen and districts dominated by Clinton
(31:44):
or Harris Well, that's down from twenty five to three.
They face their toughest road on the map period at
a time where they have no leader, no message, and
they're still dying on hills, anesthetical to what the American
people want. And we haven't done the Telegraph story yet.
But AOC isn't radical enough being anti Israel. So you're
(32:07):
having the birth of an Islamic faction within the Democrat
Party as well as the already dominance of the socialist
aspect of the party. Their toughest matt as their parties disintegrating.
Speaker 10 (32:19):
Now.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
One of the big questions that I think Jeffrey had
starting the show. Is anybody going to go to jail
for what's being revealed with the Russian collusion hoax? Well,
that came up this weekend on Fox. Listen, here's the
CIA director John Radcliffe.
Speaker 13 (32:40):
So what I think I hear you saying is there
is still an opportunity for indictments, potential prosecutions, accountability from
those people who may have lied under oath, like John Brennan,
James Comy, and perhaps Hillary Clinton.
Speaker 15 (32:56):
Well, that's why I've made the referrals that I have
d and I Gabbert has made referrals, and why we're
going to continue to share the intelligence that would support
the ability of our Department of Justice to make fair
and just bring fair and just claims against those who
have perpetrated this hoax against the American people and this
stain on our country.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Director.
Speaker 13 (33:16):
One other question on this, Chelsea as well as President
Trump used.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
The word so what I she brought up the trees
in aspect. Here's the bottom line. Are there going to
be arrests? That's up to the Department of Justice. The
balls now in Pam Bondi's court. Not a lot of
trust for Pam BONDI right now, so we'll see where
it goes. This was the massive protest as the left
is trying to blame Stephen Colbert being fired on Donald Trump.
(33:43):
So the left comes out imagine they're focused on Colbert.
President's putting together tillion dollar deals, but they're focused on Colbert. Listen, disgusting.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
We can't even depend on the courts, bend on mocks you.
And that is why we are here today to be
maliciously compliant to.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
Our First Amendment right to stand up to this receive.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
And that's exactly what this is. And the receive. By
the way, there's an old expression, no impression is better
than a bad impression. That was a whopping thirteen people
in front of CBS this weekend to protest the President's
elimination of Stephen Colbert, and you wonder why media matters
(34:33):
has fallen. That's your Sounds of the day. We're all
in this together. This is your Morning Show with Michael
ndheld Choo
Hi, I'm Michael. We'd love to have you listen every
weekday morning to your morning show live, even take us
along with you on the drive to work. We can
be heard on great radio stations like one oh four
nine The Patriot in Saint Louis, or Talk Radio ninety
eight point three and fifteen ten WLAC and Nashville and
News Talk five fifty k FYI in Phoenix, Arizona. Love
to be a part of your morning routine, but we're
(00:20):
always grateful you're here. Now, enjoy the podcast because we're
in this together. This is your morning show with Michael
O'Dell Choya. Thank you, Mike McCann. Seven minutes after the hour.
Maybe you're waking up this morning thinking, yeah, I wonder
what Jeff looks like. I wonder what Rory O'Neil looks like,
(00:41):
or what do they do when they're not on your
morning show. Whether you're looking for a bio of one
of my teammates, contributors or correspondence, whether you're looking for
the map of the station near you that you can
listen to your morning show on. Maybe you want access
to the podcast or the stories that we've been talking about.
We put it all even links to my social media sites.
(01:04):
We put it all together with one stop shopping at
your morning Show online dot com, so you have your
morning show on the air, your morning show of the podcast,
and your morning show online dot com in the website.
It's there to serve you. It's up now. Appreciate everyone
who worked hard on that. I think I looked pretty
night waking up this morning, the President announced a new
(01:24):
trade deal with the twenty seven nations in the European
Union to lower the tariff to fifteen percent, and in
addition to that, seven hundred and fifty billion has to
be spent on energy by the EU and they have
to invest six hundred billion more in the US and
continue to make military purchase. It was a big, beautiful
tariff deal for the President to follow the big beautiful
(01:47):
tariff deal with Japan. I think that leaves China as
the probably the last biggie that is outstanding before in
August first deadline. Roy O'Neil's keeping an eye on the
deadline and those who have yet to come to the table.
M Yeah, good morning, Michael.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
A lot of these are still frameworks and we're anxious
to get more of the details, especially on this EU
agreement that was announced yesterday while the President was in Scotland.
Some unknowns in here, but still overall a positive sign
that this deal has been done. The head of the
EU saying that this provides a lot of the stability
(02:22):
that many of the member countries and the companies in
them were looking for so that they can better plan.
Now that they sort of it appears they have these
numbers locked in. And as you said, Commerce Secretary Lutnik
telling Fox News Sunday that Friday is the day no
more delays, that for most of the world, the tariffs
will start to hit on Friday, August first.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
And you mentioned that China meeting.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
We've got two days of talks that are now happening
in Stockholm, Sweden, with the US and China at the
table trying to hammer out some big deal.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
So President never goes anywhere, you know. Look back at
the Cutter and the Saudi Arabian trip and we wondered
what was that all about, the women with their hair
and the barads of camels, And then it made a
lot more sense after the air strikes in Iran. Everybody
thought he was just going to golf in Scotland, although
there were rumors there would be visits potentially with the
(03:19):
Prime Minister of the head of the EU, and there
were and here comes this big announcement and that leaves China. Now,
China has been just sitting there as what the President
refers to a pretty clear framework. So what's the leap
between now and Friday from pretty clear framework to an
actual deal.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Yeah, you know, there's some speculation that they might kick
the can down a bit when it comes to a
China deal. But as the Commerce Secretary said, you know,
just because the tariffs start on Friday, it doesn't mean
they're not still not open to getting a new deal
with some country that may be facing new tariffs that
they that they had those other countries do more to
open up their markets for US exports.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
So you know, there's still ready to deal.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
But just saying that they're going to start deposing the
tariffs on Friday, you know, obviously China is a complicated relationship.
They've been trying to go around the new tariffs, you know,
by shipping things to Vietnam and then having Vietnam ship
it over and or Cambodia. That was one of their
attempts at workarounds but let's see if they can get
a more concrete deal again, if not a deal, at
(04:22):
least a better framework in place to provide that stability
that a lot of companies have been looking for.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Yeah, the deal with the European Union just reminds us
uncertainty as a two way street. And everybody has always
said the President's going to blow up the economy with
this crazy tariff deal. It's going to implode on him.
The deals are coming together, and what you heard from
the European Union was they wanted to eliminate uncertainty. You know,
we wanted to keep the flow of business going between
these two big traders. I just thought nobody ever says
(04:50):
that out loud. President's created some uncertainty, Yes, and we've
seen it in our market. It has since mostly recovered.
He's created a lot of uncertainty for others like Canada
that's still dangling like a part of simple out there.
I am going to work very hard to make sure
we have as big a window as possible, Rory, because
your story coming up in the third hour and artificial
intelligence and what the explosion means in terms of electricity
(05:12):
as well as other unintended consequences. We're going to need
some time for that. We'll do that in the third hour.
All right, if you're just waking up, we kind of
want to just real quickly review because people are waking
up every minute. The President was doing more than golfing
in Scotland, all right, that's obvious. And he has put
together a deal with twenty seven nations in the European Union.
(05:35):
It'll be a fifteen percent levee on most imports coming
from the twenty seven nations in the European Union. Now
this will include automobiles, which is huge, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors. In
addition to the fifteen percent levee, they've also had to
commit to buying seven hundred and fifty billion dollars worth
(05:57):
of US energy. But wait, there's more, and vest six
hundred billion more because you always hear this from reporters,
but most of this is stuff they were investing anyway. No,
this is six hundred billion more than it already is
investing in America as well as continue to make major
military equipment purchases. As one reporter, as the president or
(06:22):
the head of the EU, what did the US have
to concede? And the long answer was, well, we get
to continue to do business together and zero nothing. I mean,
it's going to be really hard for the left to
spend this as not a real deal and not a
(06:43):
good deal and not an impactful deal. And this days
after five hundred and fifty billion and economic investment from
Japan in addition to a tariff deal. I mean, now
(07:03):
you're starting to talk about a lot of revenue from
the tariffs, a lot of revenue from these half trillion
to three quarter trillion dollar investment deals. Our White House
correspondent John Decker asked the President if you considered a
rebate to the American people, to which he said he is,
but he's most committed in paying down the debt. These
deals not only are not dying like the left said,
(07:24):
they were going to destroying our economy like the left
said they would, they're huge victories. So much so what
to do with the money becomes the big question. Just
because you turn on the radio and I'm the host,
I mean, your voice is worth as much as mine
if you want to use the talkback button. I like
(07:48):
the using of these investments to create jobs, higher paying jobs,
and I like using the revenue to pay down the debt.
I do not want to see this turn into means
tested rebate checks and picking winners and losers. I think
that would be the only way to reach into the
jaws of victory and find a few cavities of defeat.
(08:09):
While the stock market is rising in futures in response
to this huge deal, and it's just more winning for
the president. For the left not so much. In fact,
I don't know whether they call this a left defeat
like Colbert or a victory for Trump. But Media Matters,
(08:32):
the left wing media watchdog is reportedly facing an existential
crisis as it drowns in government investigation, legal expense from
defamation cases, and loss of donors. Now, I'm sure like
the and by the way, I'd like to go on
record because that's in Sounds of the day. There was
(08:55):
a big protest because now the left has spun it
that Donald tru Trump for CBS to cancel Stephen Colbert.
He wasn't losing forty million dollars. Trump silenced him. Fox
will report that there were twenty people at the rally.
I have the entire Now, I guess you know one
(09:17):
thing I didn't do. Count the cameraman who's taking the picture,
but how I don't know if the cameraman is one
of them. I counted twelve person in the speaker is thirteen.
So if you think Stephen Colbert's ratings are bad, here's
the big protest in support of Stephen Colbert and his firing,
and a whopping thirteen people show up, one being the speaker,
(09:38):
of course, blaming it all on Trump that it's disgusting.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
But we can't even depend on the courts to defend
on knocks you. And that is why we are here today,
to be maliciously.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Compliant to our first Amendment right was to stand up
to this for shame.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
And that's exactly what.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Now Jay Leno would tell you. The reason Stephen Colbert died,
the reason Kimmel's probably not far behind, maybe only Jimmy
Fallon will survive, is because they alienated half their audience
by being so partisan, something Johnny Carson warned of back
in the seventies, don't ever do this, and they did it,
and then like Saturday Night Live, all three of them
(10:24):
did it. So now you alienated half your audience, and
then all that's left is split between three of you,
creating such a void for those that still watch cable
television or still watch terrestrial television. All you to do
is launch Gutfield, and there was a half of an
audience out there unserved. But what you really ended up
creating was a matrix with late night television. Now the
(10:47):
rights all watching Gutfeld, and the left is watching the
three now two, soon to be one, and somewhere in
there is the younger people have moved on to digital
and podcasts. Nobody's doing appointment television, certainly not around a
network or a cable although I did some appointment television
over the weekend with Untamed, What a spectacular little mini
(11:10):
series of six ess that's a Netflix. A girl dies
and the mystery unfolds, all in one of our beautiful
national parks. I also watched The Amateur, which I thought
was terrific. I also watched Happy Gilmore two, which was
(11:31):
not so terrific. It was cute. But notice what I
didn't say I watched. I didn't watch Sarah Ilive, and
I wasn't watching any late night television or cable news.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
You know.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
So you know, just like in life, we die from living.
Living is dangerous. You can die of an accident, you
can be killed every choice you make, and noy'body lights
a cigarette saying I want lung cancer. Nobody takes a
sip of a drink saying I want cirrhosis of the liver.
But life is our cause of death. And then finally,
in an autopsy, they'll tell you what the final straw,
the broke, the camel back cause if death was, but
(12:02):
you really died from living. And I think that's all
the above when it comes to Late Night, and it's
all of the above when it comes to Media Matters.
They just did a huge round of layoffs in May. There,
according to New York Times, citing internal documents and leven
sources familiar with the situation, the Democratic Line Group reports
(12:23):
to monitor and combat conservative misinformation in the United States.
Only they've been caught in misinformation and now they're left wing.
Philanthropist donors like George Soros reportedly bleeding donors and funders.
Media Matters also lost around two million dollars spending off
an investigation by the Republican State Attorneys General overclaims that
(12:45):
it manipulated data to smear Elon Musk's X. In fact,
if you add up all the cases from their poor.
And remember they were formed to stop right wing missing
information with left wing misinformation, and all of their legal
defense alone adds up to fifteen million dollars, and their
(13:07):
donors are drying up. Media matters is dying like Stephen
Colbert that died, and I'm sure they'll try to blame
that on Trump too, But keep your eye on the
real cause of death. All right, when we come back
next and have a little time alone, I want to
talk about AOC. There's a great story today. AOC isn't
(13:30):
radical enough for the anti Israel left comes out of
the UK from the Telegraph. Is this the seed that
will birth and Islamic splintering off from the Democrat Party
along with a socialist splintering off? Or will they unite?
We should talk about that in a journey of discovery.
All right? Have you have you heard of karraaluma. It's
(13:53):
an edible cactus from India and it's known for naturally
suppressing appetite. It's one of the key ingredients and the
breakthrough weight loss supplement called Lean. If you're trying to
lose weight this summer, sick of yo yoing up and down,
lean could be your answer. It was mine. Doctors behind
Lien say it's the closest they've come to replicating the
(14:15):
benefits of the popular injections and without Needleslean helps you
maintain healthy blood sugar levels, control appetite and cravings. But
it doesn't stop there. It's rare. Natural ingredients are formulated
to help your body burn fat by converting it into energy.
And let me tell you something that is the greatest
feeling energy you'll ever experience. And the best part, no needles,
(14:36):
just results. Now, everything I've just said has not been
evaluated by the FDA. The product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure,
or prevent any disease. And it is not a substitute
or an alternative for care from your health care provider.
It's a supplement I take. I've lost twelve pounds and
I feel great, and hundreds and thousands of others are
(14:57):
feeling the same way. I want to get you started
with twenty percent use the code y MS twenty. Go
to take Lean dot com yms You're a Morning Show
twenty for twenty percent off. So go to take Lean
dot Com y Ms twenty for twenty percent off Yms
twenty at Takelean dot com This is your Morning Show
(15:17):
with Michael del Chrono to tell us the Oklahoma We
go in Jamie and.
Speaker 5 (15:23):
It comes well to do with that money from the
tariff neils. I mean putting it back into the economy
is you know, to pay off.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
That pay down the day.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
It's going to be the best option, I think. But
if he does decide to get a rebate and do
a means testing, maybe that means testing should be looking
at who's not paying taxes and who is. If you're
not working and paying taxes, then the people who are
working should get more of the money than those who
just take taxes.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Well, anybody that's buying anything has been paying an inflation.
I mean, if you're gonna go the rebate route, take
a portion, rebate it equally to all Americans. I mean,
just you know, I remember when I used to be
in management, and I have seen this and I have
lived it, and I can tell you it's so. First
of all, people ultimately want to work someplace they're appreciated
(16:12):
and they can contribute, that they're a part of many
people going in one direction, and that they play an
important part and they're appreciated for it. That's first, and foremost.
Secondly to love what they do and love who they
do it with, and love who they do it for.
But third right under that becomes compensation. And I used
to just walk up to people they do a great
job of storm coverage or something and hand them one
(16:34):
hundred dollars bill to take your wife out to dinner.
You were terrific today. I'm telling you those hundred dollar
bills made much more impact than twenty thousand dollars year
salary increases. So I think you should ultimately pay down
the debt. If you take a portion of it and
give it back and rebate, even if it ends up
being a few hundred dollars for everybody, you've made your
political point. But the ultimate thing you owe the American
(16:58):
people is to pay down the debt. We shouldn't have
to pay for your out of control spending and then
expect a good deal in order to get some small
rebate back. Besides the rebate never ekles what we paid.
Appreciate the calls, and you never have to wait in line.
Use that talkback button.
Speaker 6 (17:15):

Speaker 8 (19:21):
I mean, Ione, who's over here with a real personal
situation of struggling for quite a few years.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
But I don't want the cash money.
Speaker 8 (19:31):
I don't want him dangling money in front of us
like that Dan participle. I don't know he wants where
he was to put that money at. But let's just
put it towards the dat.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Father. Angela and I don't want to be rich. We're
not into a false prosperity gospel. Your son is sufficient,
but supply our needs according to your riches and glory
amend the.
Speaker 5 (19:57):
Consequence it's the best way to get back on your face,
to get up all here.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
I have to bless myself that guy around here, because
you won't bless me that chicken d just blowing off
Steve all right, always revealing. By the way, if you're
new to the show, we're joking. We don't really fight
like this. Always revealing, often entertaining time for your sounds
of the day. Uh, this is going to be big
next hour when we visit with John Decker. I mean,
(20:21):
if his head can fit in the studio. He asked
this question of the President of the United States, which
has Angela responding, me responding, in all of us responding,
And it all began with John Decker's question, Listen, do
you think there is the possibility of a rebate to
the American public in terms of.
Speaker 9 (20:40):
All of that money?
Speaker 10 (20:41):
We're thinking about that.
Speaker 9 (20:42):
Actually, we have so much money coming in we're thinking.
Speaker 10 (20:46):
About a little rebate. But the big thing we want
to do is pay down debt. But we're thinking about
a rebate. That is a very good ty.
Speaker 9 (20:55):
Just made a lot of news.
Speaker 10 (20:56):
We're thinking about a rebate because we have so much
money coming in from tariff, that tariff that's a little
rebake four people of a certain incum level might be
very nice.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
For by Sin's the President of the United States responding
to our own John Decker, and yeah, he did make
a lot of news. And then the question becomes, are
you just signed this deal with the twenty seven nations
of the EU in addition to a fifteen percent levy
on all imports and think of the automobiles alone what
that could translate to. But in addition to that, the
EU has to buy seven hundred and fifty billion dollars
(21:29):
worth of energy and invest an additional six hundred billion
dollars in the US as they continue to buy military
hardware from US. It's a huge deal. Japan was a
huge deal. The President's pretty confident he's going to have
a huge deal with China before the end of the week.
There's going to be a lot of money. Now, listen,
(21:49):
what caused debt in the first place. I have researched
the debt of the United States and you can trace
back the original taxation was for World War and then
when the war was over, it went away. Then it
came back for another war and never went away, and
it's grown into an enslavement where you work till August
(22:12):
or September for the government before you start making any
money for yourself. How did we get there, Well, you'll
trace COVID, You'll trace Obama. Obama doubled two hundred and
fifty years of debt in eight years. America clearly has
a size of government, role of government, and overspending problem.
(22:35):
In fact, revenue has been at record levels and it's
not enough to keep up. But that's where my appreciation
for this president comes in because he's addressed spending in
dough She's going to address spending through Congress in the
coming years. He's defining the proper size and role of
(22:57):
government and what is the role in response onsibility of
the self governed. He's dealing with the crime and deportation
and securing of the border. All a big drain. That's
where a lot of the money's gone. And this is
a big part of it. This is what puts the
CBO's projections on its ear because this money paying down
(23:21):
the debt along with a big, beautiful bill is how
you allow the American people to have more opportunity keep
more of their money and we don't need Besides, even
if you did a rebate check. It's not going to
be enough for some. They'll never be a big enough check.
Keep your eye on the ball and prioritize the plan.
(23:44):
And the last thing you want to get into is
some means tested type rebate check. If you're going to
do the rebate check, you better do it for everybody
equal and just a little a symbolic one. That's what
got us into that one hundred dollars analogy. But finish
your deal, pay down the debt with it makes all
the future forecasts the reality. As he broke down the deal,
(24:09):
you thought he was just golfing right wrong. European Union.
Speaker 9 (24:15):
Is going to agree to purchase from the United States
seven hundred and fifty billion dollars worth of energy. Seven
hundred and fifty billion dollars worth of energy.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
They are going to.
Speaker 9 (24:32):
Agree to invest into the United States six hundred billion
dollars more than they're investing already. So they're investing a
large amount of money.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
You know what that amount of money is. It's very substantial.
Speaker 9 (24:49):
But they're going to invest an additional six hundred billion dollars.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
I like that because the media always loves to counter
with the generic already spending that money. That's not new money, now,
this is six hundred billion. In addition, can't wait to
see how leftist reporters handle that.
Speaker 9 (25:08):
They're agreeing to open up their countries to trade at
zero tariff. So that's a very big factor opening up
their countries. All of the countries will be opened up
to trade with the United States at zero tariff. And
they're agreeing to purchase a vast amount of military equipment.
(25:30):
We don't know what that number is, but.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
It's it's so if you're a reporter in the room, right,
my gosh, that's a lot. I mean, just getting your
arms around automobiles alone, man, that's a lot. Fifteen percent
tariff on everything coming in from twenty seven nations in
(25:52):
the EU. That on top of that seven hundred and
fifty billion, and energy purchases in addition to that, and
which you're already investing in America an additional six hundred
billion an investment plus you're going to buy them all.
So what's the US having to give up? Listen, anybody else, yes, ma'am.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
Question for the president?
Speaker 1 (26:13):
What are the US consessions? What is the US giving
up in the deal.
Speaker 11 (26:18):
So, as we the starting point was an imbalance, a
surplus on our side and a deficit on the US side,
and we wanted to rebalance the trade relation, and we
wanted to do it in a way that trade goes
on between the two of us.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Translation, we avoided getting cut off.
Speaker 11 (26:37):
Across the Atlantic, because the two biggest economies should have
a good trade flow between US and I think we
hit exactly the point we wanted to find. Rebalance, but
enable trade on both sides, which means good jobs on
both sides of the Atlantic, means prosperity on both sides
of the Atlantic, and that was important for us.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
The answer to the question nothing zero. They open up
trade to us at a zero percent tariff, We teariff
all their goods and services coming here fifteen percent, plus
seven hundred and fifty billion in energy they have to buy,
plus six hundred billion more in investment over what they're
already doing, plus buying a military purchase. And me, that's
(27:21):
the art of the deal, right. We got everything, we
gave up nothing, and they're liking it. So Donald Trump
keeps winning. What's the left doing not winning?
Speaker 12 (27:34):
A new Wall Street Journal poll shows almost two thirds
of voters disapprove of the party The lowest level in
over three decades.
Speaker 13 (27:41):
And it make matters worse.
Speaker 12 (27:42):
Voters prefer howard Publicans handle most major issues affecting the country,
including the economy, inflation, immigration, tariffs, foreign policy, and even Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Now keep in mind too, and the Left is doubling
down against these majors with their miners. So there's still
dying on the hills of wokeness, still dying on the
hills of open border. They have no credibility left. They
told you all this arft stuff was going to destroy
(28:14):
the economy. It's nothing but be the final cherry on
the whipped cream of making America's economy great again. And
you're heading into midterm elections. And on the issue of
the economy, the GOP have a plus twelve advantage. On
the issue of inflation. The GOP has a plus ten
(28:34):
advantage on immigration, a plus seventeen on a legal immigration
plus twenty four. They trust Republicans more with handling of
the border, security and justice for those that are committing
other crimes, as well as legal immigration tariffs. They now
have a seven point lead foreign policy, an eight point lead.
(28:57):
Even on the war in Ukraine a five point lead.
I mean, you're a Democrat, what are you supposed to do?
And you're out there promising giant blue waves, but are
they coming? Time to go to the board with Karnaki.
Speaker 14 (29:14):
The makeup of that Republican majority that got decimated in
twenty eighteen is very different from the makeup of the
Republican majority right now.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
And that's what we want to show you right here.
Speaker 14 (29:25):
Republicans in twenty eighteen were exposed all over the place.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Check this out here.
Speaker 14 (29:30):
Republicans in twenty eighteen in districts that had been carried
by Hillary Clinton in the twenty sixteen presidential election anti
Trump districts, there were twenty five of them. In the
twenty eighteen midterms. There are only three Republicans right now
representing districts that.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Donald Trump didn't. So Republicans in office and districts dominated
by Hillary Clinton in an election she lost and dominated
by Kamala Harris in an election she lost, goes from
twenty five to three disc and that's before redistrict.
Speaker 14 (30:01):
Can carry in the last presidential election. How about the
next rung here call these sort of marginally pro Trump districts.
These are districts that Trump won by less than seven
and a half points. There were twenty three of these
in twenty eighteen midterms.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
There's almost a.
Speaker 14 (30:18):
Similar number now nineteen, not quite as high, but we're
highlighting these two groups because this is where Republicans suffered
almost all of their damage in the twenty eighteen midterms.
Of those twenty five from anti Trump districts in twenty eighteen,
Republicans lost twenty two of those seats. Of the twenty
three that were marginally pro Trump, Republicans lost two thirds
(30:39):
of them. You can't see it because they're read unread there,
but fifteen to the twenty three, twenty two, and fifteen
thirty seven losses of seats by Republicans in these two
categories in twenty eighteen, that's almost all of the losses
that they suffered. It was a forty seat defeat for them.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
And you can see right.
Speaker 14 (30:56):
Now again only three in anti Trump districts, in a
slightly smaller number nineteen in those marginally pro Trump districts.
You could play this out and look at the other
types of districts here. There were a couple of upsets
in twenty eighteen of Republicans in solidly pro Trump districts,
and then there were no Republican losses in this category.
The Trump landslide districts in twenty eighteen, and look, the
(31:17):
Republicans have fewer overall seats now, but there are more Republicans.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
So the seats that are up for grabs for Republicans
and dominated Trump areas of twenty percent or more one
hundred and thirty four, not one hundred and sixteen, and
strong districts won by Trump seven and a half to
twenty percent, it's at sixty four one by seven and
a half or less nineteen and districts dominated by Clinton
(31:44):
or Harris Well, that's down from twenty five to three.
They face their toughest road on the map period at
a time where they have no leader, no message, and
they're still dying on hills, anesthetical to what the American
people want. And we haven't done the Telegraph story yet.
But AOC isn't radical enough being anti Israel. So you're
(32:07):
having the birth of an Islamic faction within the Democrat
Party as well as the already dominance of the socialist
aspect of the party. Their toughest matt as their parties disintegrating.
Speaker 10 (32:19):
Now.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
One of the big questions that I think Jeffrey had
starting the show. Is anybody going to go to jail
for what's being revealed with the Russian collusion hoax? Well,
that came up this weekend on Fox. Listen, here's the
CIA director John Radcliffe.
Speaker 13 (32:40):
So what I think I hear you saying is there
is still an opportunity for indictments, potential prosecutions, accountability from
those people who may have lied under oath, like John Brennan,
James Comy, and perhaps Hillary Clinton.
Speaker 15 (32:56):
Well, that's why I've made the referrals that I have
d and I Gabbert has made referrals, and why we're
going to continue to share the intelligence that would support
the ability of our Department of Justice to make fair
and just bring fair and just claims against those who
have perpetrated this hoax against the American people and this
stain on our country.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Director.
Speaker 13 (33:16):
One other question on this, Chelsea as well as President
Trump used.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
The word so what I she brought up the trees
in aspect. Here's the bottom line. Are there going to
be arrests? That's up to the Department of Justice. The
balls now in Pam Bondi's court. Not a lot of
trust for Pam BONDI right now, so we'll see where
it goes. This was the massive protest as the left
is trying to blame Stephen Colbert being fired on Donald Trump.
(33:43):
So the left comes out imagine they're focused on Colbert.
President's putting together tillion dollar deals, but they're focused on Colbert. Listen, disgusting.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
We can't even depend on the courts, bend on mocks you.
And that is why we are here today to be
maliciously compliant to.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
Our First Amendment right to stand up to this receive.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
And that's exactly what this is. And the receive. By
the way, there's an old expression, no impression is better
than a bad impression. That was a whopping thirteen people
in front of CBS this weekend to protest the President's
elimination of Stephen Colbert, and you wonder why media matters
(34:33):
has fallen. That's your Sounds of the day. We're all
in this together. This is your Morning Show with Michael
