Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, it's me Michael. Your morning show can be heard
live daily on great radio stations like News Radio six
fifty k E n I Anchorage, Alaska, Talk Radio eleven
ninety Dallas Fort Worth, and Freedom one O four seven
in Washington, d C. We'd love to have you listen
live every day and make us a part of your
morning routine. But better late than never. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Well two three, starting your morning off right, A new
way of talk, a new way of understanding.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Because we're in litigavi. This is your morning show with
Michael del Jorny. That's for our friends listening on Talk
Radio eleven ninety in Dallas. Little Zach Prescott, this morning
all right, six minutes after the hour. Thanks for waking
up with your morning show on the Aaron streaming live
on your iHeartRadio app on Michael del Journal. I love
(00:48):
these one on one times we have. I was just
thinking minutes ago about the expression ignorance is bliss. Remember,
ignorance is not stupidity. Ignorance simply imply is it you're
ignoring that you're focused on something else? And yes, in life,
I'm a little bit jealous of those who are ignorant
(01:11):
and they are bliss. Doesn't mean they're any safer by
not knowing, but they are bliss. I'd give anything to
be that bliss. Now the reverse of that. Sometimes ignorance
isn't bliss though, Like my daughter has a and I
shared it. Trust me. I had a tremendous fear of flying,
and for good reason, I had three incidents that were
(01:32):
very troubling to live through. Therefore, I was very afraid
of flying. And I did two things. I took two actions.
One right across the street was a ten eleven Delta
Airlines Captain Mac McGoey World War two HEROI my dad.
I sat down with Mac. Now, I didn't learn how
to fly the l ten eleven, but I learned about flight.
(01:56):
And the more I learned, the less afraid I was.
Like when you're driving in a car and you hit bumps,
you don't panic. Roads have bumps, Well, air have bumps.
Wings and what they're capable of. I mean, I learned everything,
and it really isn't like you're just hanging in this
heavy thing in air, And why isn't it just falling?
(02:18):
It's more like a boat and water because of the
what air is like. So the more I learned the
less afraid I was. When it comes to the Middle East,
I know a lot, and therefore I worry a lot.
It's just that simple. I'm not ignorant, and it's not bliss.
But let me give you a little twist on that.
For those that maybe aren't following this right now, think
(02:40):
of my analogy of my daughter and her fear of
flying through ignorance. How about the number of Americans that
are afraid of Donald Trump as if he is the
devil incarnate that if he gets elected he won't leave,
and even though he was just elected and did leave.
That's a legitimate story today that the former presidents having
(03:02):
to go around and explain what he meant when talking
to a Christian organization about they'll never have to vote again.
That's him having to take time to do crazy talk.
But that really exists. There's people that are focused on
him as the threat, not Hasballah, not Amas, not Iran,
(03:24):
not Russia, not China, and they walk around every day
anxious over that. Or how about the number of people
that are anxious over global warming that one tenth of
one degree is going to be our demise. That's what
they're focused on. They're ignoring everything else. But they're focused
on that. Let me twist it a little bit for you. Imagine,
(03:54):
if you will, Donald Trump didn't in a millisecond turn
his head to look at a graphic and get shot
in the ear instead of the temple. What if you
had gotten shot in the temple, if you'd been killed,
we'd be talking about today. Our former president, our inevitable
next president was assassinated. The leader of Hamas was assassinated
(04:19):
in Israel, I mean in Iran. Oh. By the way,
a Hesbalah commander was assassinated and killed in an airstrag
in Lebanon. Do you think things are escalating in the
Middle East? I always am cautioned, and I'm not the
(04:43):
greatest student of history, trust me. I'm just just a
very curious soul who goes down rabbit holes. But I
have noticed very few wars, and in the same place
that they start and with the same players is when
they started. Kennedy was fast with the book Guns of August.
When people couldn't get the word something was over and
(05:03):
they just kept fighting. But escalation is well, it's as
real as gravity when it comes to war. So waking
up this morning, a Hamas leader Ismael Hunaya was assassinated
and in Tehran, he's there for the oath taking of
the new president in Iran and he's taken out. Revolutionary
(05:25):
Guard confirms it. The Ayatola is swearing revenge. Israel has
not taken credit for it, and they never do, but
they have vowed in the past to take out all
the leaders that were involved in that October seventh invasion.
So the presumption is Israel did it, and the presumption
is Iran serious about retaliating, Yes, it should be on
(05:54):
your radar. I shared a quote with Mick mulroy, who
served as a Pentagon official for the Middy Middle East
during the Trump administration, said, Hesba lah and now Iran
will likely have to retaliate. Every diplomatic effort should be made.
(06:15):
By the way, you got to crush your fingers and
hope to die that this ad Biden administration with an
Israel problem is going to do everything diplomatically and effectively
to keep this from escalating. That's a reach for me.
(06:35):
He concluded by saying, if nothing changes, the current trajectory
of war seems inevitable. Now. Whenever we talk about this,
we remind everybody there is an alliance between Russia, Iran,
(06:56):
and China. North Korea is kind of its own independent
used to be where we you know, North Korea was
under the thumb of China. They've kind of gone rogue
from that. So as we're looking at things, we're concerned
about China invading Taiwan, We're concerned with Russia continuing through
Ukraine and going to other European nations. But they're all
(07:16):
in an umbrella together. They've all been supporting and supplying
in enrich geranium to Iran in their pursuit of a
nuclear weapon. And we know Iran's goal kill every non
Muslim first comes Saturday, then comes Sunday, Saturday being the Jews,
Sunday being the Christians. That's their goal. They're just looking
(07:43):
for a reason and waiting on the means. So, yeah,
you're gonna hear a lot in the news about this,
but the real story is now what what does the
Revolutionary Guard under the thumb of the Ayahtola do and
to whom and when and does that lead to escalation
(08:07):
Ismael Hunaya Hamas leader, political leader, organizational leader, assassinated on
Iranian soil in Tehran, where he was there for the
president's inauguration, the Ayatola pledging revenge. What does this do
to the ceasefire talks? I would think it's quite the wrench.
(08:30):
And what does this do in terms of escalation of
war and war spreading in the Middle East, the epicenter
of the world, concerning Israel, the epicenter of the epicenter.
That's a lot to get your arms around. Now, if
you are blissful enough to only focus on politics. Oh,
there was a major shift yesterday. My father had an
expression I can't share in the air, but it ended
(08:51):
with bigger than a giraffe. This is Kanla Harris in
a crowd, quoting a rapper in atlant And.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
What is she doing.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
She's not the borders are She's the border champion and
Donald Trump is the border fraud. I know it's a stretch,
but here's how it sounded.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Donald Trump, on the other hand, has been talking a
big game about securing our border, but he does not
walk the walk, or as my friend Quavero was said,
he does not walk it like he talks it.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Donald Donald Trump my wrapper front Quavo, because I listened
to quaver with the second gentleman. He gotta wrap his
oncle hell do the chief. I'm the one that I'll
say hell youtude, But I mean, think about this, Kamala Harris.
(09:57):
The number one issue on voter's minds is the border invasion,
the fentanyl deaths, the changed policies from a secured border
to an unsecured border, and she was named the czar.
Not only does she not run from that, she just
(10:17):
starts gaslighting straight on. I'm the border per Donald Trump's though,
one that doesn't walk the top. Good luck with that one.
Where to begin on this? I think the simplest thing
to do is just played Donald Trump's new commercial, and
(10:42):
may I commend them that it is right on target.
Speaker 5 (10:47):
I'm Donald J. Trump and I approved this message. This
is America's borders are, and she's failed us Under Harris,
over ten million illegally here, a quarter of a million
Americans and from Petroary gluing migrant crimes and isis now here.
Speaker 6 (11:06):
You have any plans to visit the border?
Speaker 3 (11:08):
You haven't been, and I.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Haven't been to Europe.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
I understand the point.
Speaker 7 (11:12):
That you're making.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
Kamala Harris failed, weak, dangerous.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
And liberals. I'm imagine America deciding its next president. Based
on those two realities, and then of course our sound
of the day was Josh Holly, Senator from Missouri. You
may have an interim Secret Service director, but he sure
sounded exactly like the one that was removed. And unfortunately
(11:42):
nothing's changed, no answers, no firings, no actions.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Here's how it's American is dead that other Americans were
critically wounded. Isn't that enough mission failure for you to
say that the person who decided that that building should
not be in a security premer probably ought be stepped down?
Speaker 8 (12:01):
Senator, I think you're using a word decided, and I
think we need to allow the investigation play out.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
To include Okay, so who did make the decision? Then
if it wasn't the lead site agent who made the
decision not to put that in security.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
Perim, Senator, you're zeroing in on one particular agent.
Speaker 8 (12:17):
I want to find out exactly, Yeah, what was the
entire decision process? So I think, yeah, I want to
be neutral and make sure that we get to the
bottom of it and interview everybody in order to determine
if there was more than one person perhaps exercise bad judgment.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Well, sure, My question is why don't you relieve everybody
of duty who made bad judgment. So, yeah, you're right,
I am zeroing in on somebody. I'm trying to find
somebody who's accountable here. And so you're telling me that
the person who made the decision not to include this
in the perimeter has not been relieved of duty. What
about the person who's in charge of the interoperability of
radio frequencies between the local law enforcement and Secret Service?
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Has that person been relieved to duty?
Speaker 8 (12:55):
No, center, because interoperability is a challenge, is a great
challenge than just one person. On that day, we had
a counterpart system. It failed.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
As a person who decided who made the decision to
send Donald Trump onto stage knowing that you had a
security situation, has that person been relieved of duty.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
No, sir, they haven't.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
As a person who decided not to pull the former
president off of stage when you knew that, in your words,
the locals were working a serious security situation, has that
person been relieved of duty?
Speaker 1 (13:25):
No, sir.
Speaker 8 (13:25):
Again, I refer you back to my original answer that
we are investigating this through a mission assurance and as
opposed to zeroing in on one.
Speaker 6 (13:33):
What more do you need to investigate to know exactly.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
What this Do you need to investigate to know that
there were critical enough failures that some individuals ought to
be held accountable.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
I mean, what more do you need to know?
Speaker 8 (13:44):
What I need to know is exactly what happened. And
I need my investigators to do their.
Speaker 6 (13:49):
Job, and I can't.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
People didn't.
Speaker 8 (13:51):
I can out put my thumb on the scale. Otherwise,
what do you mean put your thumb on the objective?
You're asking me, Senator, to completely make a rush to
judgment about somebody failing.
Speaker 6 (14:02):
I acknowledge this was a failure of it.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Is it not Primeopacia, that somebody has failed? A former
president was sure, sir.
Speaker 8 (14:08):
This could have been our Texas school book depository. I
have lost sleep over that for the last seventeen days,
and just like somebody so, I will tell you, Sator,
I will tell you, Senator, that I will not rush
to judgment.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
He lost sleep for seventeen days. I can think of
an American family that lost their father and husband and
two that were in critical condition, and a country that
almost lost its former president and potentially next president. And
in seventeen days, I ask you this question, was there
any answer that Ronald Rowe the interim director of the
(14:45):
Secret Service gave yesterday that was any different than the
ousted Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheedle gave. You replaced the head,
but the snake is still curled in a ball and
not operating. This is Your Morning Show with Michael Deltona
(15:05):
Your Top story Waking up. Hamas leader Ismayol Hania was
killed in Tehran. The head of Hamas's political wing, was
attending the inauguration of Iran's new president. Ania is the
top Hamas official to be killed since the group attacked
Israel on October seventh. Israel has yet to take credit
(15:25):
for the assassination. The Ayatola of Iran is swearing he
will get revenge escalation in the Middle East. Vice President
Harris is continuing to apply pressure towards former President Donald Trump.
She wants to debate Mark Mayfield has more.
Speaker 9 (15:40):
Andrellly In Atlanta Tuesday, Harris said that momentum in the
Rings is shifting, that Trump won't debate inspite of human
running J D Vance having.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
A lot to say about Harris.
Speaker 9 (15:48):
Harris also went on a call out Trump on immigration,
saying she will put her record against his any day.
She also referenced Trump's criminal convictions, noting she has been
dealing with people like him for her entire career. According
to reports, Harris will campaign in six battleground states next
week with their running mate, who she is expected to
announce by August seventh.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
I'm Mark Meefield, said A Majority leader Mitch McConnell says
President Biden's proposed term limits for Supreme Court justices will
be dead on arrival. Brian Shook as more.
Speaker 10 (16:14):
The Republican leader, told reporters Tuesday that Biden's proposed reforms
are unconstitutional. Biden on Monday called for major reforms to
the Supreme Court, including term limits and an enforceable code
of ethics. He also proposed a constitutional amendment to limit
the broad immunity granted two presidents by a recent Supreme
(16:36):
Court decision. I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Trump is accusing Facebook and Google of restricting content related
to his assassination. Tammy Trehilo has details in a.
Speaker 11 (16:45):
Post on truth Social Trump claimed the tech giants made
it virtually impossible to find pictures or anything related to
the shooting, and accuse the companies of trying to help
rig the twenty twenty four election. This comes after Facebook
acknowledge it mistakenly censored the image of Trump raising his
fist following the shooting. Earlier this month, a post sharing
the image was mistakenly flagged as misinformation. I'm tammage forr HEO.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Well the Fed lower the interest rate. We'll visit with
Aaron Rayel about that in mere minutes. Hi, am Michael,
I'd love to have you listen to your morning show live.
Every day. We're heard on great stations like news Talk
Fi Point fifty kp YI and Phoenix News Radio eleven
ninety k EX in Portland and ten ninety the Patriot
in Seattle. Make us a part of your morning routine.
We'd love to have you listen live, but in the meantime,
(17:29):
enjoy the podcast. Can't have your morning show without your voice.
You can call us one eight hundred six eight eight
ninety five twenty two. There's a talkback button if you're
listening on the iHeartRadio app. It's a microphone. Press it,
you can leave a message. We get it. We can
share it with the class. Also old fashion email Michael
die at iHeartMedia dot com if you're just waking up
thirty six minutes after the hour on the East coast,
(17:50):
you got about twenty four minutes to be to work
on time. The top story Ismail Hania, the Hamas leader
assassinated on Iranian soil in Tehran. He was there for
the president's inauguration. The Ayatola is vowing revenge after the
attack on the leader. It does send a chilling message
if it is Israel, that they will not see any
(18:12):
soil is sacred in Iran's proxy war. The association with
Hamas and Iran made clear, although Israel has yet to
take credit for this. The Ayahtola blaming Israel and vowing revenge,
that's very troubling news waking up. But what does that
do to the ceasefire talks? And does this lead to
(18:34):
any more further escalation of war in the Middle East.
Will keep our eye on that. Roy O'Neil will have
more on that coming up in minutes. Aaron, are you there?
I am well. I'm trying to figure out why I
didn't have you earlier and now I do. It's nice
to have you back in studio. Okay, So the Fed,
all eyes are on the Fed today and yet all
experts are saying the same thing. Pretty much zero chance
(18:56):
they're going to lower rate right.
Speaker 7 (18:58):
Very unlikely, very unlikely that's going to happen today. But there's,
according to the markets, braced in sixty four percent chance
that we're going to see the likelihood of a FED
cut three times this year, September, November, December. I don't
think the markets always get it right. Frankly, I think
the markets are like way too optimistic. Nine and ten
economists are pegging a September rate cut that will be
(19:20):
the first one since twenty twenty. I think that is
more likely. I am anticipating one before the end of
the year. If the data comes in it's coming in
the right direction. If it continues to go down in
terms of inflation, consumer spending, all of it, then we
will continue to see rate cuts. But right now, you know,
maximizing full employment, we're pretty close to it, which is
(19:41):
a dual mandate to the FED to maximize employment and.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
To keep prices stable.
Speaker 6 (19:44):
That's the inflation part.
Speaker 7 (19:46):
So they're getting there, but we're at three percent inflation.
Speaker 6 (19:49):
It needs to be closer to two.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Yeah, I mean that seems to be in the balancing
act with the attempt of a soft landing, you know,
you want to do it safely without throwing anything into
a recession. But that seems to be the marker that's
holding them back at least as of the end of July. Right,
three percent inflation, you got to get closer to two.
At least halfway to two, I would think is probably
(20:12):
the magic number, right, But that's the least plenty of
time for September, October, maybe November and into the new year,
and with an election result and a lot of certainty,
things are are still somewhat on target.
Speaker 7 (20:25):
There's someone on target. And that's why I'm like, I
don't think that we need to.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
Look at this like, oh, no, no rate cut.
Speaker 7 (20:31):
We've gotten used to, you know, the fact that less
people are buying homes at the moment, and even if
we do get a rate cut before the end of
the year, that won't really translate to anything lower than
six percent at least in the new year. And most
people say they aren't interested in purchasing a home unless
they can get a five percent rate. So this is
a long process.
Speaker 6 (20:51):
I've always said this. Rate cycles are long. They're long.
Speaker 7 (20:55):
They're like a decade long. We're close to five years
into this increasing one we're now going to go on
the other side. They just take a minute, and I
think they have to happen in the sense that if
they didn't, we'd have a runaway inflation.
Speaker 6 (21:08):
And then then you're bringing.
Speaker 7 (21:09):
A wheelbarrow to buy your fruit and you have Ardentine
style nonsense, and we're not doing that. So we've had
to basically take our medicine and feel the pain for
a while. This pain is real. Everyone is having a
difficult time shouldling the burden, and now we begin to
feel some relief. It's it's the booms and bust of
the market cycle.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Do you think at any point anyone will spend as
much time discussing how we created this inflation more than
how long it is taking to stabilize the interest right?
Speaker 7 (21:37):
I sure hope though, but they probably won't. Listen.
Speaker 6 (21:39):
It was done from the pandemic, for sure.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Ye dump a bunch of unearned money into the market,
it crosses inflation, and now.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
We suck it all out and that's It's like, essentially,
we're just playing with numbers. I've always said, I'm like, no, listen,
it's it works.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
It definitely works. It's worked so long.
Speaker 7 (21:55):
I don't think it will work forever.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
I think this is I think this is one of
those where we were in class. If I have a
copying off your paper, was probably e all of the above.
But who needs this the most?
Speaker 3 (22:05):
Right now?
Speaker 1 (22:05):
We got a lot of Americans strapped with high interest
credit card debt. We've got a lot of Americans who've
turned to he locks and the he loock interest rates.
We have inventory problems, only partial of which can be
alleviated by getting boomers to let go of their home.
And you're not going to do that until these interest
rates come down, because right now you're expecting them to
get a a lot of money for their home, but
(22:26):
pay a lot for their next and at a higher
interest rate. So some believe that might ease inventory a
little bit. But who's needing this the most and what
sector needs this the most? Assuming we get it in September,
October and November.
Speaker 7 (22:39):
Listen, like almost all cycles, the working Man, if you
own stuff, if you own assets in the market, if
you own property, you've seen the value go up and
you're feeling pretty good. If you're a salary person, yes,
we have seen wages rise a lot, a lot, but
we're also continuing with prices that are frankly like roughly
twenty five percent higher if you add it all up
(23:01):
over the past four years, so you know, if you've
gotten a twenty five percent raise, which by the way,
most people have not. But like, yes, unions have used
this as an opportunity to renegotiate wages and that has
been helpful. But short of that, you're only breaking even
now you're paying your bills.
Speaker 6 (23:15):
And it's not like.
Speaker 7 (23:18):
This will help people who have put a lot of
money in on credit cards. We're looking at a twenty
five percent interest rate on cards right now. You can
get a loan shark to give you a much better
rate than that, Like, that's it's preposterous the rate. So
this will help ease that. It will theoretically help people
get into home ownership. But if you've just been struggling
and taking on debt in order to pay your rent,
(23:40):
the probability of you're like, oh, rates below five percent,
now let's buy. No, that's not how it works. It's
like you're you have to first climb out of debt
in order to get the loan. It's it's a big process,
and I understand why younger people aren't as optimistic because again,
rate cycles are long, these type of cycles, they aren't
quick quick resolutions. Now, does that mean that we will
(24:00):
always being a bad place economically known? Things go up
and down, But this is this has been a tough
wound of stomach.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
I hadn't thought of that till you just said it.
I could go down to my local mafia credit union,
and isn't it probably a better rate? Great reporting as always, Aaron,
have a great day. We'll talk again tomorrow, right forty
one minutes after that. But this is a reminder of
what we talk about. There are political narratives and then
there are consequences and realities. This is why poll after
(24:28):
pole you see the American people say, a the border,
the crisis, the expense, the injustice, the crime, and they
talk about the economy. It's the economy stupid. These are
the things that are driving voters. Now, can Mama La
Kamala gaslight? Well, she's sure got to give it a shot.
(24:53):
I try to disassociate herself for any of this mayhem,
and that's exactly what she was doing on the Campaig
trail yesterday. In Atlanta. Mark Mayfield has.
Speaker 9 (25:02):
More and Arelli in Atlanta Tuesday, Harris said that momentum
in the race is shifting, that Trump won't debate Despine
him in running mate j d Vance having a lot.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
To say about Harris. Harris also went on to call out.
Speaker 9 (25:12):
Trump on immigration, saying she will put her record against
his any day. She also referenced Trump's criminal convictions, noting
she has been dealing with people like him for her
entire career. According to reports, Harris will campaign in six
battleground states next week with their running mate, who she
is expected to announce by August seventh.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
On Mark Mayfield, Yes, you heard right. She had the
bigger than a giraffe to challenge Donald Trump on the border,
and she's even finding her own prosecuting hips. Street Talk
tone two because.
Speaker 4 (25:45):
As the saying goes, if you got something to say.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Set up majority a minority leader rather. Mitch McConnell says
President Biden's proposed term limits for the Supreme Court justices
it's dead on arrival when it gets to Congress. Brian
shook me all night long, has more.
Speaker 10 (26:07):
The Republican leader told reporters Tuesday that Biden's proposed reforms
are unconstitutional. Biden on Monday called for major reforms to
the Supreme Court, including term limits and an enforceable code
of ethics. He also proposed a constitutional amendment to limit
the broad immunity granted two presidents by a recent Supreme
(26:28):
Court decision. I'm Brian Schuk.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Come August fifteenth, TikTok and any bit Dance owned platforms
will all be removed from all house managed phones. Tammy
Trujuilo has details.
Speaker 11 (26:40):
The Chief Administrative Officer announced the crackdown on the China
based companies apps on Tuesday that includes the apps capcut
hipik Lark, and Lemonade. The office asked all lawmakers and
stafferge to remove the apps from their phones in twenty
twenty two, but the news Director of warrants it if
anyone still has any of the apps on a house
managed mobile device, they'll be content acted to remove them.
(27:01):
I'm tammaged FORRHO.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
A new report says close to a third of US
teens got treatment for their mental health last year. Brian
shook us back with the report.
Speaker 10 (27:10):
That's from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.
It found that nearly thirty two percent of adolescents twelve
to seventeen got mental health treatment, or over eight million
people nationwide. That's up from just under thirty percent in
twenty twenty two. The most common type was outpatient treatment,
including seeing a therapist or school counselor. I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Another great day for USA and Paris. Some own Biles
and Team USA women's gymnastics back where they belong on
top of the podium. Here's the latest from the Summer Games.
Speaker 12 (27:44):
Well, the big story from Paris yesterday the US women's
gymnastics team capturing Olympic gold in the team competition for
the first time since the twenty sixteen Games. Some old
Biles leading Team USA. Bile says she knew they were
headed for gold after the vault on the first rotation.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
After I finished ball, I was released, I was like.
Speaker 12 (28:04):
Biles earned her US record setting eighth career medal and
her fifth gold for the US. It's the women's gymnastics
team's fourth gold in the team competition in gymnastics. Today,
the men's all round final is on tap. The US
yesterday picked up more medals in the pool, including a
silver and bronze and the women's one hundred backstroke from
Reagan Smith and Katherine Berkhov. The US men's soccer team
(28:28):
advanced to the knockout round with a win over Guinea
on tap.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Today, the US men's.
Speaker 12 (28:32):
Basketball team is back on the court, facing South through Dan.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
In exhibition play.
Speaker 12 (28:37):
The US survived by only a point against that South
Su Dan team. This has been an NBC News Radio
Olympic report.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
I just shout a little bit like Harry had a son,
does it? Just keep wait for Holy Cow. We continue
to lead the world with twenty six total medals. China
is in third, France and second. Baseball, well, you know
I love freedom one to four points. I've been listening
in Washington, DC this morning, and then we have KFYI
and Phoenix, Arizona. The two met in baseball yesterday and
(29:08):
it was a d bax by two touchdowns in a
field goal over the National seventeen to nothing in a
close one. Guardians won five nothing over the Tigers. Cardinals
big win eight to one over the Rangers, and the
Mariners won ten six over the Red Sox, raise one
nine to three over the Marlins.
Speaker 9 (29:27):
I'm Jim Schultz in Tampa and my morning show is
your Morning Show with Michael Gilgerono.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
Things were a lot more physical in the Senate hearing.
Speaker 8 (29:35):
Listen, you're asking me, Senator, to completely make a rush
to judgment about somebody failing.
Speaker 6 (29:41):
I acknowledge this was a failure.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
Of Is it not primo facia that somebody has failed?
The former president was sure, sir.
Speaker 8 (29:48):
This could have been our Texas school book depository. I
have lost sleep over that for the last seventeen days,
and just like.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Somebody, so I will tell you, Senator.
Speaker 8 (29:57):
I will tell you, Senator, that I will not rush
to judgment, that people will be held accountable, and I
will do so with integrity and not rush to judgment
and put pep.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
I unfairly persecuted.
Speaker 8 (30:12):
We have to be able to have a proper investigation.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
I watched rugby in the Olympics, not nearly as physical
as the Senate hearing. Rory O'Neil is here. Rory, we
got an active an acting acting director, but it sounds
like the director that was removed there's still wanting to
wait on investigations. Nobody's been fired. What did you make
of yesterday's hearing?
Speaker 13 (30:34):
Well, well, you can either pull a weed out by
the top or by the roots. And I get the
sense that the acting director is trying to pull this
out by the roots and get to the people actually
responsible all of them, rather than just fire some figurehead
and think you can move on.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
Well, or but what about you know, as to what
Josh Holly was saying, who made the decision about the
rooftop and the perimeter that had to be a regional
site directors that person before, you just can't get any
answers and you get the same. It just didn't sound
any different than what it was. Kimberly Cheetle to me, Well.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
This guy's been on the job for a week, so I.
Speaker 13 (31:13):
Guess I'm more optimistic that I'm going to give him
time to do his.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
Job, all right, And then one of the big heated
exchanges were over protocols. To what Charlie said, you got
to change your protocols any chance that's going to happen.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
They are changing some.
Speaker 13 (31:26):
They are looking more specifically at communications issues as it
relates to having Secret Service agents be in better faster
contact with local law enforcement. That's one of the things
that happened here. The local cops knew about the guy
in the rooftop, but apparently, according to the director, the
word never got to the Secret Service was actually protecting
the president.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
The former president, So that is one of the issues.
Speaker 13 (31:49):
Also, moving away from text messages, going back to good
old fashioned radios which can be which going to larnt
more people more broadly than say a text message system
to an individual they think that has too many.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
Gaps in it. And also then having site.
Speaker 13 (32:04):
Survey plans reviewed by more sets of eyes. That complacency,
the director says, can set in in some of these cases.
So they want before any site security plan is approved,
it's got to go through a multiple procedures.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
In order to get that stamp of approval.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
And what more do we know about the shooter himself?
Obviously we know that he was on the radar ninety
minutes before any shots were fired. We were originally told
no social media presence. Now we're starting to see more
of a social media and a radical presence. And the
next question is what are these offshore accounts and do
they point any ties to any terrorist organizations abroad? Do
we know any more on any of that? Did any
(32:42):
of that come out yet?
Speaker 13 (32:44):
Yeah, the FBI director didn't think there was anything international,
but again hasn't ruled anything out.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
You know, they're still fighting with a lot of these.
Speaker 13 (32:51):
Social media companies to get access to the accounts because
they're all and some of the messaging apps were encrypted,
so that makes it harder to get this information. So
that's why you know, they're spending more time in courtrooms
with judges trying to get access to some of this
stuff as the social media companies are reluctant to turn
it over.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
So that's a factor.
Speaker 13 (33:12):
And as far as some of the online content, yeah,
hold off on that. You know, we've seen both extremes
now attributed to this man, some of the dating back
to when he was fourteen fifteen years old. I take
a wait and see approaches to what may actually come
from came.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
From him, all right.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
One of the things that you're digging up fast is
the very latest down the assassination of Ismael Hunaya, who
was the leader of Hamas in Iran for a presidential
swearing in taken out at this point Israel, and they
don't usually take credit for the assassination, but the Ayatola
is vowing revenge. You're going to give us all the
(33:50):
latest on Ismael and the Ayahtola and what may be
coming next, what this does to the peace talks and
cease fire and what this might do in terms of escalation,
and you come back next hour. Can't wait to hear
roy O'Neil. Thanks for joining us fifty six minutes after
the hour. Also, we come back to veep or not
to veep'tis the question for Mama A Kamala. But of
(34:11):
all the names that we've kicked around, do any of
them concern Republicans? For me, the only game changer floating
around if you could somehow get and you won't, but
if you could somehow get Kamala Harris an RFK to
join tickets, then you take his spoiling vote out of
(34:31):
those close swing states, that would be a game changer.
Other than that, I don't see any game changers. And
it sure looks like it's gonna be Kelly in Arizona.
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michael ndheld Joano
Hi, it's me Michael. Your morning show can be heard
live daily on great radio stations like News Radio six
fifty k E n I Anchorage, Alaska, Talk Radio eleven
ninety Dallas Fort Worth, and Freedom one O four seven
in Washington, d C. We'd love to have you listen
live every day and make us a part of your
morning routine. But better late than never. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Well two three, starting your morning off right, A new
way of talk, a new way of understanding.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Because we're in litigavi. This is your morning show with
Michael del Jorny. That's for our friends listening on Talk
Radio eleven ninety in Dallas. Little Zach Prescott, this morning
all right, six minutes after the hour. Thanks for waking
up with your morning show on the Aaron streaming live
on your iHeartRadio app on Michael del Journal. I love
(00:48):
these one on one times we have. I was just
thinking minutes ago about the expression ignorance is bliss. Remember,
ignorance is not stupidity. Ignorance simply imply is it you're
ignoring that you're focused on something else? And yes, in life,
I'm a little bit jealous of those who are ignorant
(01:11):
and they are bliss. Doesn't mean they're any safer by
not knowing, but they are bliss. I'd give anything to
be that bliss. Now the reverse of that. Sometimes ignorance
isn't bliss though, Like my daughter has a and I
shared it. Trust me. I had a tremendous fear of flying,
and for good reason, I had three incidents that were
(01:32):
very troubling to live through. Therefore, I was very afraid
of flying. And I did two things. I took two actions.
One right across the street was a ten eleven Delta
Airlines Captain Mac McGoey World War two HEROI my dad.
I sat down with Mac. Now, I didn't learn how
to fly the l ten eleven, but I learned about flight.
(01:56):
And the more I learned, the less afraid I was.
Like when you're driving in a car and you hit bumps,
you don't panic. Roads have bumps, Well, air have bumps.
Wings and what they're capable of. I mean, I learned everything,
and it really isn't like you're just hanging in this
heavy thing in air, And why isn't it just falling?
(02:18):
It's more like a boat and water because of the
what air is like. So the more I learned the
less afraid I was. When it comes to the Middle East,
I know a lot, and therefore I worry a lot.
It's just that simple. I'm not ignorant, and it's not bliss.
But let me give you a little twist on that.
For those that maybe aren't following this right now, think
(02:40):
of my analogy of my daughter and her fear of
flying through ignorance. How about the number of Americans that
are afraid of Donald Trump as if he is the
devil incarnate that if he gets elected he won't leave,
and even though he was just elected and did leave.
That's a legitimate story today that the former presidents having
(03:02):
to go around and explain what he meant when talking
to a Christian organization about they'll never have to vote again.
That's him having to take time to do crazy talk.
But that really exists. There's people that are focused on
him as the threat, not Hasballah, not Amas, not Iran,
(03:24):
not Russia, not China, and they walk around every day
anxious over that. Or how about the number of people
that are anxious over global warming that one tenth of
one degree is going to be our demise. That's what
they're focused on. They're ignoring everything else. But they're focused
on that. Let me twist it a little bit for you. Imagine,
(03:54):
if you will, Donald Trump didn't in a millisecond turn
his head to look at a graphic and get shot
in the ear instead of the temple. What if you
had gotten shot in the temple, if you'd been killed,
we'd be talking about today. Our former president, our inevitable
next president was assassinated. The leader of Hamas was assassinated
(04:19):
in Israel, I mean in Iran. Oh. By the way,
a Hesbalah commander was assassinated and killed in an airstrag
in Lebanon. Do you think things are escalating in the
Middle East? I always am cautioned, and I'm not the
(04:43):
greatest student of history, trust me. I'm just just a
very curious soul who goes down rabbit holes. But I
have noticed very few wars, and in the same place
that they start and with the same players is when
they started. Kennedy was fast with the book Guns of August.
When people couldn't get the word something was over and
(05:03):
they just kept fighting. But escalation is well, it's as
real as gravity when it comes to war. So waking
up this morning, a Hamas leader Ismael Hunaya was assassinated
and in Tehran, he's there for the oath taking of
the new president in Iran and he's taken out. Revolutionary
(05:25):
Guard confirms it. The Ayatola is swearing revenge. Israel has
not taken credit for it, and they never do, but
they have vowed in the past to take out all
the leaders that were involved in that October seventh invasion.
So the presumption is Israel did it, and the presumption
is Iran serious about retaliating, Yes, it should be on
(05:54):
your radar. I shared a quote with Mick mulroy, who
served as a Pentagon official for the Middy Middle East
during the Trump administration, said, Hesba lah and now Iran
will likely have to retaliate. Every diplomatic effort should be made.
(06:15):
By the way, you got to crush your fingers and
hope to die that this ad Biden administration with an
Israel problem is going to do everything diplomatically and effectively
to keep this from escalating. That's a reach for me.
(06:35):
He concluded by saying, if nothing changes, the current trajectory
of war seems inevitable. Now. Whenever we talk about this,
we remind everybody there is an alliance between Russia, Iran,
(06:56):
and China. North Korea is kind of its own independent
used to be where we you know, North Korea was
under the thumb of China. They've kind of gone rogue
from that. So as we're looking at things, we're concerned
about China invading Taiwan, We're concerned with Russia continuing through
Ukraine and going to other European nations. But they're all
(07:16):
in an umbrella together. They've all been supporting and supplying
in enrich geranium to Iran in their pursuit of a
nuclear weapon. And we know Iran's goal kill every non
Muslim first comes Saturday, then comes Sunday, Saturday being the Jews,
Sunday being the Christians. That's their goal. They're just looking
(07:43):
for a reason and waiting on the means. So, yeah,
you're gonna hear a lot in the news about this,
but the real story is now what what does the
Revolutionary Guard under the thumb of the Ayahtola do and
to whom and when and does that lead to escalation
(08:07):
Ismael Hunaya Hamas leader, political leader, organizational leader, assassinated on
Iranian soil in Tehran, where he was there for the
president's inauguration, the Ayatola pledging revenge. What does this do
to the ceasefire talks? I would think it's quite the wrench.
(08:30):
And what does this do in terms of escalation of
war and war spreading in the Middle East, the epicenter
of the world, concerning Israel, the epicenter of the epicenter.
That's a lot to get your arms around. Now, if
you are blissful enough to only focus on politics. Oh,
there was a major shift yesterday. My father had an
expression I can't share in the air, but it ended
(08:51):
with bigger than a giraffe. This is Kanla Harris in
a crowd, quoting a rapper in atlant And.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
What is she doing.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
She's not the borders are She's the border champion and
Donald Trump is the border fraud. I know it's a stretch,
but here's how it sounded.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Donald Trump, on the other hand, has been talking a
big game about securing our border, but he does not
walk the walk, or as my friend Quavero was said,
he does not walk it like he talks it.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Donald Donald Trump my wrapper front Quavo, because I listened
to quaver with the second gentleman. He gotta wrap his
oncle hell do the chief. I'm the one that I'll
say hell youtude, But I mean, think about this, Kamala Harris.
(09:57):
The number one issue on voter's minds is the border invasion,
the fentanyl deaths, the changed policies from a secured border
to an unsecured border, and she was named the czar.
Not only does she not run from that, she just
(10:17):
starts gaslighting straight on. I'm the border per Donald Trump's though,
one that doesn't walk the top. Good luck with that one.
Where to begin on this? I think the simplest thing
to do is just played Donald Trump's new commercial, and
(10:42):
may I commend them that it is right on target.
Speaker 5 (10:47):
I'm Donald J. Trump and I approved this message. This
is America's borders are, and she's failed us Under Harris,
over ten million illegally here, a quarter of a million
Americans and from Petroary gluing migrant crimes and isis now here.
Speaker 6 (11:06):
You have any plans to visit the border?
Speaker 3 (11:08):
You haven't been, and I.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Haven't been to Europe.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
I understand the point.
Speaker 7 (11:12):
That you're making.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
Kamala Harris failed, weak, dangerous.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
And liberals. I'm imagine America deciding its next president. Based
on those two realities, and then of course our sound
of the day was Josh Holly, Senator from Missouri. You
may have an interim Secret Service director, but he sure
sounded exactly like the one that was removed. And unfortunately
(11:42):
nothing's changed, no answers, no firings, no actions.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Here's how it's American is dead that other Americans were
critically wounded. Isn't that enough mission failure for you to
say that the person who decided that that building should
not be in a security premer probably ought be stepped down?
Speaker 8 (12:01):
Senator, I think you're using a word decided, and I
think we need to allow the investigation play out.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
To include Okay, so who did make the decision? Then
if it wasn't the lead site agent who made the
decision not to put that in security.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
Perim, Senator, you're zeroing in on one particular agent.
Speaker 8 (12:17):
I want to find out exactly, Yeah, what was the
entire decision process? So I think, yeah, I want to
be neutral and make sure that we get to the
bottom of it and interview everybody in order to determine
if there was more than one person perhaps exercise bad judgment.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Well, sure, My question is why don't you relieve everybody
of duty who made bad judgment. So, yeah, you're right,
I am zeroing in on somebody. I'm trying to find
somebody who's accountable here. And so you're telling me that
the person who made the decision not to include this
in the perimeter has not been relieved of duty. What
about the person who's in charge of the interoperability of
radio frequencies between the local law enforcement and Secret Service?
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Has that person been relieved to duty?
Speaker 8 (12:55):
No, center, because interoperability is a challenge, is a great
challenge than just one person. On that day, we had
a counterpart system. It failed.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
As a person who decided who made the decision to
send Donald Trump onto stage knowing that you had a
security situation, has that person been relieved of duty.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
No, sir, they haven't.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
As a person who decided not to pull the former
president off of stage when you knew that, in your words,
the locals were working a serious security situation, has that
person been relieved of duty?
Speaker 1 (13:25):
No, sir.
Speaker 8 (13:25):
Again, I refer you back to my original answer that
we are investigating this through a mission assurance and as
opposed to zeroing in on one.
Speaker 6 (13:33):
What more do you need to investigate to know exactly.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
What this Do you need to investigate to know that
there were critical enough failures that some individuals ought to
be held accountable.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
I mean, what more do you need to know?
Speaker 8 (13:44):
What I need to know is exactly what happened. And
I need my investigators to do their.
Speaker 6 (13:49):
Job, and I can't.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
People didn't.
Speaker 8 (13:51):
I can out put my thumb on the scale. Otherwise,
what do you mean put your thumb on the objective?
You're asking me, Senator, to completely make a rush to
judgment about somebody failing.
Speaker 6 (14:02):
I acknowledge this was a failure of it.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Is it not Primeopacia, that somebody has failed? A former
president was sure, sir.
Speaker 8 (14:08):
This could have been our Texas school book depository. I
have lost sleep over that for the last seventeen days,
and just like somebody so, I will tell you, Sator,
I will tell you, Senator, that I will not rush
to judgment.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
He lost sleep for seventeen days. I can think of
an American family that lost their father and husband and
two that were in critical condition, and a country that
almost lost its former president and potentially next president. And
in seventeen days, I ask you this question, was there
any answer that Ronald Rowe the interim director of the
(14:45):
Secret Service gave yesterday that was any different than the
ousted Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheedle gave. You replaced the head,
but the snake is still curled in a ball and
not operating. This is Your Morning Show with Michael Deltona
(15:05):
Your Top story Waking up. Hamas leader Ismayol Hania was
killed in Tehran. The head of Hamas's political wing, was
attending the inauguration of Iran's new president. Ania is the
top Hamas official to be killed since the group attacked
Israel on October seventh. Israel has yet to take credit
(15:25):
for the assassination. The Ayatola of Iran is swearing he
will get revenge escalation in the Middle East. Vice President
Harris is continuing to apply pressure towards former President Donald Trump.
She wants to debate Mark Mayfield has more.
Speaker 9 (15:40):
Andrellly In Atlanta Tuesday, Harris said that momentum in the
Rings is shifting, that Trump won't debate inspite of human
running J D Vance having.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
A lot to say about Harris.
Speaker 9 (15:48):
Harris also went on a call out Trump on immigration,
saying she will put her record against his any day.
She also referenced Trump's criminal convictions, noting she has been
dealing with people like him for her entire career. According
to reports, Harris will campaign in six battleground states next
week with their running mate, who she is expected to
announce by August seventh.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
I'm Mark Meefield, said A Majority leader Mitch McConnell says
President Biden's proposed term limits for Supreme Court justices will
be dead on arrival. Brian Shook as more.
Speaker 10 (16:14):
The Republican leader, told reporters Tuesday that Biden's proposed reforms
are unconstitutional. Biden on Monday called for major reforms to
the Supreme Court, including term limits and an enforceable code
of ethics. He also proposed a constitutional amendment to limit
the broad immunity granted two presidents by a recent Supreme
(16:36):
Court decision. I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Trump is accusing Facebook and Google of restricting content related
to his assassination. Tammy Trehilo has details in a.
Speaker 11 (16:45):
Post on truth Social Trump claimed the tech giants made
it virtually impossible to find pictures or anything related to
the shooting, and accuse the companies of trying to help
rig the twenty twenty four election. This comes after Facebook
acknowledge it mistakenly censored the image of Trump raising his
fist following the shooting. Earlier this month, a post sharing
the image was mistakenly flagged as misinformation. I'm tammage forr HEO.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Well the Fed lower the interest rate. We'll visit with
Aaron Rayel about that in mere minutes. Hi, am Michael,
I'd love to have you listen to your morning show live.
Every day. We're heard on great stations like news Talk
Fi Point fifty kp YI and Phoenix News Radio eleven
ninety k EX in Portland and ten ninety the Patriot
in Seattle. Make us a part of your morning routine.
We'd love to have you listen live, but in the meantime,
(17:29):
enjoy the podcast. Can't have your morning show without your voice.
You can call us one eight hundred six eight eight
ninety five twenty two. There's a talkback button if you're
listening on the iHeartRadio app. It's a microphone. Press it,
you can leave a message. We get it. We can
share it with the class. Also old fashion email Michael
die at iHeartMedia dot com if you're just waking up
thirty six minutes after the hour on the East coast,
(17:50):
you got about twenty four minutes to be to work
on time. The top story Ismail Hania, the Hamas leader
assassinated on Iranian soil in Tehran. He was there for
the president's inauguration. The Ayatola is vowing revenge after the
attack on the leader. It does send a chilling message
if it is Israel, that they will not see any
(18:12):
soil is sacred in Iran's proxy war. The association with
Hamas and Iran made clear, although Israel has yet to
take credit for this. The Ayahtola blaming Israel and vowing revenge,
that's very troubling news waking up. But what does that
do to the ceasefire talks? And does this lead to
(18:34):
any more further escalation of war in the Middle East.
Will keep our eye on that. Roy O'Neil will have
more on that coming up in minutes. Aaron, are you there?
I am well. I'm trying to figure out why I
didn't have you earlier and now I do. It's nice
to have you back in studio. Okay, So the Fed,
all eyes are on the Fed today and yet all
experts are saying the same thing. Pretty much zero chance
(18:56):
they're going to lower rate right.
Speaker 7 (18:58):
Very unlikely, very unlikely that's going to happen today. But there's,
according to the markets, braced in sixty four percent chance
that we're going to see the likelihood of a FED
cut three times this year, September, November, December. I don't
think the markets always get it right. Frankly, I think
the markets are like way too optimistic. Nine and ten
economists are pegging a September rate cut that will be
(19:20):
the first one since twenty twenty. I think that is
more likely. I am anticipating one before the end of
the year. If the data comes in it's coming in
the right direction. If it continues to go down in
terms of inflation, consumer spending, all of it, then we
will continue to see rate cuts. But right now, you know,
maximizing full employment, we're pretty close to it, which is
(19:41):
a dual mandate to the FED to maximize employment and.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
To keep prices stable.
Speaker 6 (19:44):
That's the inflation part.
Speaker 7 (19:46):
So they're getting there, but we're at three percent inflation.
Speaker 6 (19:49):
It needs to be closer to two.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Yeah, I mean that seems to be in the balancing
act with the attempt of a soft landing, you know,
you want to do it safely without throwing anything into
a recession. But that seems to be the marker that's
holding them back at least as of the end of July. Right,
three percent inflation, you got to get closer to two.
At least halfway to two, I would think is probably
(20:12):
the magic number, right, But that's the least plenty of
time for September, October, maybe November and into the new year,
and with an election result and a lot of certainty,
things are are still somewhat on target.
Speaker 7 (20:25):
There's someone on target. And that's why I'm like, I
don't think that we need to.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
Look at this like, oh, no, no rate cut.
Speaker 7 (20:31):
We've gotten used to, you know, the fact that less
people are buying homes at the moment, and even if
we do get a rate cut before the end of
the year, that won't really translate to anything lower than
six percent at least in the new year. And most
people say they aren't interested in purchasing a home unless
they can get a five percent rate. So this is
a long process.
Speaker 6 (20:51):
I've always said this. Rate cycles are long. They're long.
Speaker 7 (20:55):
They're like a decade long. We're close to five years
into this increasing one we're now going to go on
the other side. They just take a minute, and I
think they have to happen in the sense that if
they didn't, we'd have a runaway inflation.
Speaker 6 (21:08):
And then then you're bringing.
Speaker 7 (21:09):
A wheelbarrow to buy your fruit and you have Ardentine
style nonsense, and we're not doing that. So we've had
to basically take our medicine and feel the pain for
a while. This pain is real. Everyone is having a
difficult time shouldling the burden, and now we begin to
feel some relief. It's it's the booms and bust of
the market cycle.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Do you think at any point anyone will spend as
much time discussing how we created this inflation more than
how long it is taking to stabilize the interest right?
Speaker 7 (21:37):
I sure hope though, but they probably won't. Listen.
Speaker 6 (21:39):
It was done from the pandemic, for sure.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Ye dump a bunch of unearned money into the market,
it crosses inflation, and now.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
We suck it all out and that's It's like, essentially,
we're just playing with numbers. I've always said, I'm like, no, listen,
it's it works.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
It definitely works. It's worked so long.
Speaker 7 (21:55):
I don't think it will work forever.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
I think this is I think this is one of
those where we were in class. If I have a
copying off your paper, was probably e all of the above.
But who needs this the most?
Speaker 3 (22:05):
Right now?
Speaker 1 (22:05):
We got a lot of Americans strapped with high interest
credit card debt. We've got a lot of Americans who've
turned to he locks and the he loock interest rates.
We have inventory problems, only partial of which can be
alleviated by getting boomers to let go of their home.
And you're not going to do that until these interest
rates come down, because right now you're expecting them to
get a a lot of money for their home, but
(22:26):
pay a lot for their next and at a higher
interest rate. So some believe that might ease inventory a
little bit. But who's needing this the most and what
sector needs this the most? Assuming we get it in September,
October and November.
Speaker 7 (22:39):
Listen, like almost all cycles, the working Man, if you
own stuff, if you own assets in the market, if
you own property, you've seen the value go up and
you're feeling pretty good. If you're a salary person, yes,
we have seen wages rise a lot, a lot, but
we're also continuing with prices that are frankly like roughly
twenty five percent higher if you add it all up
(23:01):
over the past four years, so you know, if you've
gotten a twenty five percent raise, which by the way,
most people have not. But like, yes, unions have used
this as an opportunity to renegotiate wages and that has
been helpful. But short of that, you're only breaking even
now you're paying your bills.
Speaker 6 (23:15):
And it's not like.
Speaker 7 (23:18):
This will help people who have put a lot of
money in on credit cards. We're looking at a twenty
five percent interest rate on cards right now. You can
get a loan shark to give you a much better
rate than that, Like, that's it's preposterous the rate. So
this will help ease that. It will theoretically help people
get into home ownership. But if you've just been struggling
and taking on debt in order to pay your rent,
(23:40):
the probability of you're like, oh, rates below five percent,
now let's buy. No, that's not how it works. It's
like you're you have to first climb out of debt
in order to get the loan. It's it's a big process,
and I understand why younger people aren't as optimistic because again,
rate cycles are long, these type of cycles, they aren't
quick quick resolutions. Now, does that mean that we will
(24:00):
always being a bad place economically known? Things go up
and down, But this is this has been a tough
wound of stomach.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
I hadn't thought of that till you just said it.
I could go down to my local mafia credit union,
and isn't it probably a better rate? Great reporting as always, Aaron,
have a great day. We'll talk again tomorrow, right forty
one minutes after that. But this is a reminder of
what we talk about. There are political narratives and then
there are consequences and realities. This is why poll after
(24:28):
pole you see the American people say, a the border,
the crisis, the expense, the injustice, the crime, and they
talk about the economy. It's the economy stupid. These are
the things that are driving voters. Now, can Mama La
Kamala gaslight? Well, she's sure got to give it a shot.
(24:53):
I try to disassociate herself for any of this mayhem,
and that's exactly what she was doing on the Campaig
trail yesterday. In Atlanta. Mark Mayfield has.
Speaker 9 (25:02):
More and Arelli in Atlanta Tuesday, Harris said that momentum
in the race is shifting, that Trump won't debate Despine
him in running mate j d Vance having a lot.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
To say about Harris. Harris also went on to call out.
Speaker 9 (25:12):
Trump on immigration, saying she will put her record against
his any day. She also referenced Trump's criminal convictions, noting
she has been dealing with people like him for her
entire career. According to reports, Harris will campaign in six
battleground states next week with their running mate, who she
is expected to announce by August seventh.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
On Mark Mayfield, Yes, you heard right. She had the
bigger than a giraffe to challenge Donald Trump on the border,
and she's even finding her own prosecuting hips. Street Talk
tone two because.
Speaker 4 (25:45):
As the saying goes, if you got something to say.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Set up majority a minority leader rather. Mitch McConnell says
President Biden's proposed term limits for the Supreme Court justices
it's dead on arrival when it gets to Congress. Brian
shook me all night long, has more.
Speaker 10 (26:07):
The Republican leader told reporters Tuesday that Biden's proposed reforms
are unconstitutional. Biden on Monday called for major reforms to
the Supreme Court, including term limits and an enforceable code
of ethics. He also proposed a constitutional amendment to limit
the broad immunity granted two presidents by a recent Supreme
(26:28):
Court decision. I'm Brian Schuk.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Come August fifteenth, TikTok and any bit Dance owned platforms
will all be removed from all house managed phones. Tammy
Trujuilo has details.
Speaker 11 (26:40):
The Chief Administrative Officer announced the crackdown on the China
based companies apps on Tuesday that includes the apps capcut
hipik Lark, and Lemonade. The office asked all lawmakers and
stafferge to remove the apps from their phones in twenty
twenty two, but the news Director of warrants it if
anyone still has any of the apps on a house
managed mobile device, they'll be content acted to remove them.
(27:01):
I'm tammaged FORRHO.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
A new report says close to a third of US
teens got treatment for their mental health last year. Brian
shook us back with the report.
Speaker 10 (27:10):
That's from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.
It found that nearly thirty two percent of adolescents twelve
to seventeen got mental health treatment, or over eight million
people nationwide. That's up from just under thirty percent in
twenty twenty two. The most common type was outpatient treatment,
including seeing a therapist or school counselor. I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Another great day for USA and Paris. Some own Biles
and Team USA women's gymnastics back where they belong on
top of the podium. Here's the latest from the Summer Games.
Speaker 12 (27:44):
Well, the big story from Paris yesterday the US women's
gymnastics team capturing Olympic gold in the team competition for
the first time since the twenty sixteen Games. Some old
Biles leading Team USA. Bile says she knew they were
headed for gold after the vault on the first rotation.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
After I finished ball, I was released, I was like.
Speaker 12 (28:04):
Biles earned her US record setting eighth career medal and
her fifth gold for the US. It's the women's gymnastics
team's fourth gold in the team competition in gymnastics. Today,
the men's all round final is on tap. The US
yesterday picked up more medals in the pool, including a
silver and bronze and the women's one hundred backstroke from
Reagan Smith and Katherine Berkhov. The US men's soccer team
(28:28):
advanced to the knockout round with a win over Guinea
on tap.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Today, the US men's.
Speaker 12 (28:32):
Basketball team is back on the court, facing South through Dan.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
In exhibition play.
Speaker 12 (28:37):
The US survived by only a point against that South
Su Dan team. This has been an NBC News Radio
Olympic report.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
I just shout a little bit like Harry had a son,
does it? Just keep wait for Holy Cow. We continue
to lead the world with twenty six total medals. China
is in third, France and second. Baseball, well, you know
I love freedom one to four points. I've been listening
in Washington, DC this morning, and then we have KFYI
and Phoenix, Arizona. The two met in baseball yesterday and
(29:08):
it was a d bax by two touchdowns in a
field goal over the National seventeen to nothing in a
close one. Guardians won five nothing over the Tigers. Cardinals
big win eight to one over the Rangers, and the
Mariners won ten six over the Red Sox, raise one
nine to three over the Marlins.
Speaker 9 (29:27):
I'm Jim Schultz in Tampa and my morning show is
your Morning Show with Michael Gilgerono.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
Things were a lot more physical in the Senate hearing.
Speaker 8 (29:35):
Listen, you're asking me, Senator, to completely make a rush
to judgment about somebody failing.
Speaker 6 (29:41):
I acknowledge this was a failure.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
Of Is it not primo facia that somebody has failed?
The former president was sure, sir.
Speaker 8 (29:48):
This could have been our Texas school book depository. I
have lost sleep over that for the last seventeen days,
and just like.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Somebody, so I will tell you, Senator.
Speaker 8 (29:57):
I will tell you, Senator, that I will not rush
to judgment, that people will be held accountable, and I
will do so with integrity and not rush to judgment
and put pep.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
I unfairly persecuted.
Speaker 8 (30:12):
We have to be able to have a proper investigation.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
I watched rugby in the Olympics, not nearly as physical
as the Senate hearing. Rory O'Neil is here. Rory, we
got an active an acting acting director, but it sounds
like the director that was removed there's still wanting to
wait on investigations. Nobody's been fired. What did you make
of yesterday's hearing?
Speaker 13 (30:34):
Well, well, you can either pull a weed out by
the top or by the roots. And I get the
sense that the acting director is trying to pull this
out by the roots and get to the people actually
responsible all of them, rather than just fire some figurehead
and think you can move on.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
Well, or but what about you know, as to what
Josh Holly was saying, who made the decision about the
rooftop and the perimeter that had to be a regional
site directors that person before, you just can't get any
answers and you get the same. It just didn't sound
any different than what it was. Kimberly Cheetle to me, Well.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
This guy's been on the job for a week, so I.
Speaker 13 (31:13):
Guess I'm more optimistic that I'm going to give him
time to do his.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
Job, all right, And then one of the big heated
exchanges were over protocols. To what Charlie said, you got
to change your protocols any chance that's going to happen.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
They are changing some.
Speaker 13 (31:26):
They are looking more specifically at communications issues as it
relates to having Secret Service agents be in better faster
contact with local law enforcement. That's one of the things
that happened here. The local cops knew about the guy
in the rooftop, but apparently, according to the director, the
word never got to the Secret Service was actually protecting
the president.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
The former president, So that is one of the issues.
Speaker 13 (31:49):
Also, moving away from text messages, going back to good
old fashioned radios which can be which going to larnt
more people more broadly than say a text message system
to an individual they think that has too many.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
Gaps in it. And also then having site.
Speaker 13 (32:04):
Survey plans reviewed by more sets of eyes. That complacency,
the director says, can set in in some of these cases.
So they want before any site security plan is approved,
it's got to go through a multiple procedures.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
In order to get that stamp of approval.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
And what more do we know about the shooter himself?
Obviously we know that he was on the radar ninety
minutes before any shots were fired. We were originally told
no social media presence. Now we're starting to see more
of a social media and a radical presence. And the
next question is what are these offshore accounts and do
they point any ties to any terrorist organizations abroad? Do
we know any more on any of that? Did any
(32:42):
of that come out yet?
Speaker 13 (32:44):
Yeah, the FBI director didn't think there was anything international,
but again hasn't ruled anything out.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
You know, they're still fighting with a lot of these.
Speaker 13 (32:51):
Social media companies to get access to the accounts because
they're all and some of the messaging apps were encrypted,
so that makes it harder to get this information. So
that's why you know, they're spending more time in courtrooms
with judges trying to get access to some of this
stuff as the social media companies are reluctant to turn
it over.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
So that's a factor.
Speaker 13 (33:12):
And as far as some of the online content, yeah,
hold off on that. You know, we've seen both extremes
now attributed to this man, some of the dating back
to when he was fourteen fifteen years old. I take
a wait and see approaches to what may actually come
from came.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
From him, all right.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
One of the things that you're digging up fast is
the very latest down the assassination of Ismael Hunaya, who
was the leader of Hamas in Iran for a presidential
swearing in taken out at this point Israel, and they
don't usually take credit for the assassination, but the Ayatola
is vowing revenge. You're going to give us all the
(33:50):
latest on Ismael and the Ayahtola and what may be
coming next, what this does to the peace talks and
cease fire and what this might do in terms of escalation,
and you come back next hour. Can't wait to hear
roy O'Neil. Thanks for joining us fifty six minutes after
the hour. Also, we come back to veep or not
to veep'tis the question for Mama A Kamala. But of
(34:11):
all the names that we've kicked around, do any of
them concern Republicans? For me, the only game changer floating
around if you could somehow get and you won't, but
if you could somehow get Kamala Harris an RFK to
join tickets, then you take his spoiling vote out of
(34:31):
those close swing states, that would be a game changer.
Other than that, I don't see any game changers. And
it sure looks like it's gonna be Kelly in Arizona.
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
