Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's me Michael. Your morning show can be heard
live five to eight am Central, six to nine Eastern
and great cities like Jackson, Mississippi, Akron, Ohio, or Columbus, Georgia.
We'd love to be a part of your morning routine
and we're grateful you're here. Now. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Well two three, starting your morning off right, A new
way of talk, a new way of understanding.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Because we're in the stickiffic.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
This is your morning show with Michael del Jordan.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Thank you, Mike McCann. Six minutes after the hour, Thanks
for waking up with your morning show. We're delighted you're here.
Grab yourself a cup of coffee. Let's make sense of
this day on the airon streaming live on your iHeartRadio app.
I'm Michael del Jordan. Well, Kamala's made her choice, and
her choice is an unknown by seventy one percent of America. Unknown.
(00:50):
He's also very far left. So in this week we've
had two major quotes the Kamala video, we gotta stay woke,
get woke, and stay woke. Well, say load to a
running mate, Tim Walls. Socialism, neighborliness, it's all the same,
but we can.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Get out there, reach out, make the case, and for
one thing, don't ever shy away more progressive values. One
person's socialism is another person's neighborliness.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Yeah, that's a bumper sticker waiting for a compact car.
David's not. He called it yesterday. The Kamala would choose walls.
The unknown American wants walls on its border, got walls
on its leftist ticket. David. This is the far left,
most far left ticket, Harris Walls, in the history of
American politics. Anyway. Can can you think of one more
(01:41):
left than this?
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Good morning, Michael. No, I can't, and your analysis is correct.
She went through the choices, and then those choices were
vetted through the power brokers and the necessary organizations that
have to call us together for them to get their votes.
And it was crystal clear that the other two plays
had even just a single position like Shapiro's position in
(02:06):
leaning favorably towards school choice. That's an automatic bleep. Kelly
was just too moderate, and so you have a delete.
So you go to a state that you're automatically going
to win, and you pick a vapid, sort of unknown
individual who can be a part of the entire puppet syndrome,
(02:26):
which is a campaign that's being controlled, as we both know,
by Podestosaurus and the progressive left and the money machine
that that represents. So okay, it's exactly predictable, it's exactly
on script. But what's interesting is that he is also
the point where the in an interview we did with
(02:46):
MSNBC recently, he's the person who brought out the weird line.
He's the one who started to call jd Vance weird
and then that basically infected all of the talking point
consultants working with the candidates, and so now anyone who
supports Donald Trump is weird. So we've gone from irredeemultiple
(03:07):
to the poorabules. Now people who just don't agree with
radical progressive leftism, they're simply weird.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
There's a Slate story. There's a Slate story entitled why
Tim Walls was the guy. He wasn't just a safe pick.
He earned it. So if you ask Kamala Harris, she'll
tell you she picked him for this.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Reason because he's the kind of person who makes people
feel like they belong and then inspires them to dream big.
And that's the kind of vice president.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
He will be.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
I'm sure JD and Donald feel very inspired and empowered
by being called weird. So the media will say, well,
that's how he got How does an unknown from Minnesota
state they probably already have in the bag get her attention? Well,
he got all the media. Remember we played the montage
Suddenly after he said that, everybody went with it, from
the White House to MSNBC, to CNN, to ABC, NBCCBS
(04:05):
to local acres. They were all rite on script with weird, weird, weird, weird, weird.
And that's apparently what got them the nod. What apparently
got Josh Shapiro not the nod. You're left with just
Jewish or upstages one of the two. He'd be stronger
than her, and you don't want the bottom of the
ticket out shining the top. Or he's Jewish and his
party can't decide if it's pro terrorist or pro Israel.
(04:27):
That's a legitimate criticism.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Well, and it's And the thing about this entire choice
and the hub upon which they base it, which is
the weird statement, is that this is a piece of
the strategy, the dehumanization of all opponents. Now, this is
not something that's exclusive on the left. Michael Human I've
spoken about this for years. How do you talk about
(04:51):
politics in America without attempting to dehumanize or categorize or
name called the people that you disagree with and the
ideas they disagree with. This is a dangerous place that
we're in where everything results into humanization. And when you're
coming right out of the chute getting the nomination for
(05:12):
being a heartbeat away from the President because you've had
the coolest quip about your opponents by dehumanizing them and
calling them weird, where's it going from here?
Speaker 1 (05:22):
You and I spent a lot of time encouraging believers
in reminding them that we're called to love our God
and we're called to love others as ourself. That's the
highest calling. I was talking with somebody who was going
through a really rough time, and I said, hey, you
get it. This is the highest calling we have. It's
not if you write a book. It's not if you're
pastor at church, it's not if your host of talk show.
The highest calling is being light in darkness. The highest
(05:44):
calling is being godly in an ever increasingly ungodly world.
So without that, I bring this up to make this point.
Without that I'd do it too, because it's just a
lot quicker and easier to say he's an idiot than
take the forty minutes to say he's not an idiot,
but what he believes is wrong. And here's why I
believe it's wrong. And that's what we don't do because
(06:07):
it just doesn't work on social media. Everything has to
be cutting and quick and in punchline form. Now to
this point you're making, it is not a strength that
he is an unknown. It is his biggest weakness. And
here's why this nature I'm talking about. You've known me
how long? Twenty we're going on fifteen years? I think?
Are we twelve years?
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Let's get long, all right?
Speaker 1 (06:29):
So when I do things that are really irritating to people,
that doesn't even register with you. Because you've known me
for a long period of time. You know all my strengths,
you know all my weakness. You've seen my best moments,
you've seen my worst moments. You have context for me.
Somebody just meeting me and they don't see me the
way God sees me. They don't know my heart. They
(06:51):
don't know how far I've grown, they don't know how
far I'm still going to go. They don't have anything
contextually the way God has it. They form an opinion
based on words and actions in the moment. Well, here's
Tim Walls, and seventy one percent of America doesn't know
who he is, and all of the media in a matrix,
especially the right, is going to tell you everything about
(07:12):
this guy, from his COVID hotline to turn in your
neighbors to COVID fraud to DUIs. You're going to get
every mistake this man has made over a lifetime in
the next forty eight to seventy two hours, and then
you're going to form your opinion. That's not fair and
it's timing and its totality, especially in this name calling
(07:32):
and labeling, which he's guilty of. I mean, this is
why he's on the ticket. He's the one that coined
the phrase they're weird. Well, guess what America is gonna
have something probably even worse than weird, to think about
him when this same media is done with him, the
same media he victoriously crafted weird with. It's it's fascinating
to me.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Just this, the dehumanization process Michael is dangerous. It's what
was the fundamental rub.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Or of the way that.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
The totalitarian regimes at the end of the twentieth century
got to where they were, they dehumanized their opponents. You know,
Tim Tim Wallas has got an interesting quote he said
in his small town upbringing the definition of the Golden Rule,
and I quote was mind your own damn business. Now,
I'm really wrestling with the theological import of that.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Is that really what.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
The Old Testament meant when it said love you maybeers yourself?
Is that really what Christ meant when he summarized the
totality of biblical truth and two commandments.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Love Gods, david nations, and mind your own business?
Speaker 3 (08:37):
And mind furthermore, if the gold rules mind your own
damn business, what are you doing in politics?
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Yeah? Mind your owndamnes take it. I these are the conversations,
and I may cancel the rest of my hour for
you because these are all beauty. So so you and
I followed this, and we know it's really about Pedestine Soros.
That's the Van Trilloquist the dummies. Clinton's forver eight ears,
Obama's for eight ears. I don't mean that mean, I
(09:03):
meant as an eventriloquis dummy, all right. So they're playing
these people and now the new puppets are going to
be Harris and Walls. But keep in mind, Podesta is
the only one that occupies real estate in both camps,
so he has the Clinton apparatus, strategists, foot soldiers in
(09:26):
his camp as well as the Obama He had to
marry them, and chose to marry them with Biden, who
he hit in the basement, Harris, who couldn't win because
she was just nasty and goofy. And then then now
they're gonna get Harris without ever running a primary race
and put her with the Walls. But you know that
there are those two. Those two camps exist, the Clinton
(09:47):
camp in the Obama camp. So everybody's kumbai yaying yesterday
over Mama La Kamala. She's no longer the weaker than
only thing weaker than Joe Biden part of the ticket.
She's a messiah now and she just chose the most
It's amazing choice. Everybody's just selling the narrative, selling the
narrative except Van Jones. He is the XO, if you will,
(10:11):
He's the lieutenant colonel of Camp Obama. And yesterday, as
CNN is leaking, the pick is not Shapiro and the
pick is Walls. Listen to what he was saying in
the moment, You're gonna love this.
Speaker 6 (10:25):
A lot of people are excited, but it's not all
one way. You do have the other side of this thing,
which is, first of all, what worries me is you
see a lot of relief from the Conservatives. They were
scared of Josh Shapiro concern, they were scared of a
Mark Kelly. They thought that would help define Comblin Moore
to the middle. You see a lot of rejoicing on
(10:46):
the right. That's not good. Also, you've got some disquiet
in the Jewish community. Some people had their hopes up.
Maybe you're gonna get another shot at the Jewish vice president.
We haven't had that for two decades, and now that
gets pulled away. Is it just because he's aerate or
is there some anti Jewish bias here?
Speaker 1 (11:03):
So what I find fascinating about this is, here's van
Jones of me, because you and I both know the
plan probably was use Joe in a basement like a
trojan horse, change election laws, weaponizing COVID, get him elected,
and then have him step aside and hand it off
to Kamala. And that way the Podesta apparatus is complete,
(11:24):
but Joe goes rogue and refuses to leave, and refuses
to leave well into this election cycle. Did Kamala maybe
go rogue yesterday? And that's the Obama apparatus speaking to
the rogueness in this choice.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
That's a really good question, and I think it all
comes down to what does the money say. They're not
going to do anything that violates the fundamental pocketbook of
the source regime, no matter how it displays itself through
which organization Arabella Advisors and all their networks for Wall Street,
or or directly through Citizens for American Progress Action and
(12:03):
their networks. So I think that the three were pretty
much consensus. I think more likely that they went through
the groups that, even though they're funded, and they signed
on with CAP and with Protestant, that they need like
they don't want to go up against the Teachers' Union now.
(12:24):
So Shapiro was too dangerous. They were uncomfortable with Kelly
for other reasons. They needed the most Plato malleable position
and that's what Walls represented to them, So it was
just the safest pick. I don't think it's really much
more to outthink than match.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
I think it was the safest pick, all right, safe
but also unknown, And boy, you better have vetted good
because if something I mean, I'm already seeing stuff like
DUI and COVID fraud and other things, a lot will
pend on how well they vetted that. All right, So
you have an unknown. I think that's a negative, not
a positive. With you. It's safe, that's for sure. It's
(13:02):
the most left ticket. I mean, I got to be
honest with you. Just staring at the words on paper, Biden,
Harris looks more formidable than Harris Walls, I mean to me.
And then all right, so you secured Minnesota that you
probably had already, But Arizona's still in play, Michigan still
in play, Wisconsin's still in play, Pennsylvania is still in play.
(13:24):
Maybe I've been doing it as long as you. I'm
not as good at it as you. I'm not getting this.
I don't see what the big victory is. They can
narrativize it, they can create emotion in an arena, but
I don't see it playing out necessarily. In fact, I'm
looking at fifty percent of the Jewish vote in New
York is behind Trump right now. That's how poorly this
could spin against them.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Well, this is where it gets down to their number
council on micro targeting and the confidence that they have
that by their total media dominance across all of corporate media,
they will sell the happy narrative and their back up
the two backup plans is the short field. They're now
into the seventy day zone on voting, and so every
time they get a three day romantic tick up in
(14:08):
the media, that's three days closer to an election. They
believe they can control the narrative and they can control
the media to the nth degree. And then their last
piece is what has no one get acedient is what
they will roll out in the last fifty days in
regards to their negative campaign on Trump. They've got to
let the assassination attempt completely get off the shelf where
(14:29):
the sympathy factor would go toward Trump, so that when
they unleash their canons on him in regards to negative
advertising in his campaign, that they're able to prevail. Have
total confidence in the immediate machine. It doesn't matter who's
at the top of the ticket. They'll control the message.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Yeah, well that kind of started yesterday.
Speaker 7 (14:47):
Listen and make no mistake, violent crime was up under
Donald Trump. That's not even counting the crimes he committed.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
Yeah, so I don't know that are necessarily going to wait, Well,
you could peak a little too soon, and then if
nineteen sixty eight whears its ugly head. In twenty twenty four,
back in Chicago for the convention, with what's happening in
the Middle East, what we know is brewing, with tens
of thousands of protesters planning to be there. There's a
there's a lot more to this movie yet to play out,
that's for sure.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
There is, and it's on a short field, on a
short field place to their advantage.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
More with David Sinati hopefully tomorrow. This is your morning
show with Michael del Trono. If you're just waking up.
Kamal has made her choice.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Everybody's kumbai yaying behind the Minnesota governor Tim Walls. But
most of America have no idea who the guy is.
And when I say most, I mean seventy one percent.
Lisa Taylor has more.
Speaker 8 (15:46):
N n PR, PBS News, Maris National poll found that nearly
three quarters of Americans said they don't know enough about
the Minnesota governor to have an opinion on him. Of
those remainings, seventeen percent had a positive opinion and twelve
percent had an unfavorable opinion. I'm Lisa Taylor, and I.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Might add, of those who do know who he is,
that's so good and what will it become? As the
attack begins, Republicans are kicking off an investigation and de
Vice President Kamala Harris's handling of the southern border Pakistan,
Pakistani national with ties to Iran as in custody charged
(16:23):
with plotting to assassinate former President Donald Trump, and tropical
storm Debbie is poised to break rainfall records in both
Georgia and South Carolina. We continue to follow our top stories.
Roy O'Neil's going to join us in just a few moments. Hey,
it's Michael reminding you that your morning show can be
heard live each weekday morning five to eight Central, six
to nine Eastern in great cities like Nashville, Tennessee two below,
(16:44):
Mississippi at Sacramento, California. We'd love to be a part
of your morning routine and take the drive to work
with you. What better late than never. We're grateful you're
here now, enjoy the podcast. This is your morning show.
I am Michael del Jarno on the Aaron streaming Live
on your iHeart rate. Well consequences. We have low inventory
(17:07):
in housing, we have high home prices, we have stagnant wages,
we have high interest rates. Put it all together, and
the dream of home ownership is getting further and further
out of reach. But for how long is the question?
Morio O'Neal is joining us. It's a pretty simple gauge, right,
We look at how much money it takes and what
houses cost, and the numbers just don't add up, do they.
Speaker 5 (17:30):
Yeah, And even for people who own a home, say
you're ten years in on your thirty year mortgage, a
lot of homeowners like that feel stock. They're sort of
house rich and cash poor. Yes, they have a pretty
good rate, but the cost of the insurance has gone
way up these past few years. The taxes are higher,
the cost of you know, putting a new roof on
(17:53):
has skyrocketed as well. And a lot of households are
also feeling this tinge or they're in a jam and
if they sell, they're like, oh, wait, though, I don't
want to sell because I've got this great three percent
rate and that's going to double.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
If I try to move this something else. Yeah, we
talk about the inflation effect, and obviously groceries and energy
gets talked about a lot, and you often hear the
number kicked around. We're trying to get to two percent inflation. Well,
that that's year to year. The problem is from COVID,
you're paying thirty percent more for your groceries. You're paying
an excessive amount for your fuel. But yeah, things like
(18:28):
insurance that go unnoticed our way up. And that's all
a part of home ownership. It's in your ESCRO account.
And so you know, you bring up those that are
struggling because they're asset rich but cash poor. For those
that stretch themselves to the furthest limit of what they
could afford, they're probably falling behind.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
Right well right, and as you said, wages really aren't
keeping up. Looking at this HSH study in Nashville in particular,
where the average home is selling for four hundred four
hundred and somewhere in that range, you need to earn
a household earnings of one hundred and five thousand dollars
roughly in order to afford a home. And you know,
(19:09):
for a lot of families that's that number has just
got not a reach.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
So what are the options. Well, the options are, if
push comes to shove, you could sell your home, you
will get top dollar. You can go rent somewhere and
ride out the storm till things get a little more normal,
or find a market where in this ever increasing gig economy,
or what you do for a living can be done
(19:34):
anywhere where the home median price matches the income a
little better. That's really it, and that's what the assumption
that one to three years will look very different.
Speaker 5 (19:45):
Well but right, and you're assuming, well, my fourth grader,
I'm going to have to take them out and oh no, wait,
the daughter, she's two years from graduating and we don't
want to pull her out of high school right now.
You know, all those other factors come into play. So yeah,
I mean, these can be the kind kind of problems
that keep you up at night, especially the cost of
that new car or repairing the car, or a lease
(20:06):
or the auto insurance has also gotten crazy. And it's
just that the consumer is getting squeezed from every side
of here. Have we ever been in this point before?
Anything comparatively historically? Well, again, like if you were in
a good spot, and if you don't need to move.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
And if the.
Speaker 5 (20:22):
Insurance rates haven't gotten you in trouble and you're your
ten fifteen years and then this mortgage, that's great. You
know your home values are probably way up. You're sitting
pretty but you know when it comes time to sell
later in life and do that downsizing, you know you
could be in a pretty good position, so long as
you know Miami isn't where you want to go, right right,
(20:43):
futible lass, non Cleveland might be the place to be.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Yeah, roy O'Neil joining us with our story. The median
home income is just not looking favorable compared to the
median home price. So home ownership is getting more and
more out of breach for Americans. You know, I sit
in a home with five of us, all five of us,
and I'll grant you I've got one eighteen year old
and two twenty year olds. I get that younger is
higher insurance, but not so much as a speeding ticket
(21:09):
among us, or any traffic violation. We're paying fourteen grand
a year for auto insurance. What is driving these insurance
rights up, Well, a.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
Lot of it, they'll tell you, is the cost of
Look at the cost of the cars, you're driving and
the cost to repair them. That's a big factor in
some of these auto premiums because you know, we're.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Not driving around cars that cost ten thousand dollars anymore.
Speaker 5 (21:32):
They're forty five fifty five thousand dollars vehicles, and when
they're in an accident, they cost that much more to make,
right of course, and the labor costs are higher, and
it goes up and down. So yeah, and auto insurance
has been frustrating. Homeowners insurance has been problems in places
like Florida, California, you know, wildfires there, hurricanes in Florida, Louisiana,
(21:53):
you know, are causing homeowners insurance premiums to be even
higher than your car insurance premiums in some places, again
pricing people out.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Well, we're living in inflation. Jimmy Carter's era was recession.
I think we have a self inflicted energy crisis that
was a real energy crisis then, and in malaise that
set in. Is this transitory as everyone is promised, time
will tell. How's it looking? Time will tell?
Speaker 5 (22:22):
You know again, I think that as the inflation number
comes back down, we're not going to get into deflationary times.
But we have seen salaries start to keep up. What
is it I think if I think the number is
nine point two percent for salary increases in the past
four years, which technically covers the broad inflation measure. But
you know, you and I both know that that doesn't
(22:43):
really cover the costs that we face when we go
to the supermarket.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
Rory will be back in the third hour to discuss
Wall Street took a historic beating on Friday and Monday
a little bit of a recovery Tuesday. What does Wednesday
hold in store for us? Rory will be back with
that story next home great reporting where we'll talk to
them all right, you're just waking out. Forty two minutes
after the hour, Here are in the top five stories
of the day, Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walls.
(23:12):
They kicked off their ticket and battleground state campaign tour yesterday.
Speaker 9 (23:18):
I stand it for you today to proudly announce I
am now officially the Democratic nominee.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Her choice the Minnesota governor, Tim Walls, appearing alongside of
Harris as she explains why he was her choice.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Because he's the kind of person who makes people feel
like they belong and then inspires them to dream big.
And that's the kind of vice president he will be.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
When you argued that Walls was chosen because he's the
one that coined the phrase jd Vance and Trump they're
weird and then it went viral, that's the kind of
guy we need on the ticket, he says he's very
excited to debate JD.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
Vance.
Speaker 7 (24:03):
And I gotta tell you, I can't wait to debate
the guy. That is, if he's willing to get off
the couch and show up.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Wall's a reservist, Vance, a marine. Wall is a social
studies teacher and a coach. JD. Vance a Yale law graduate.
I think he's ready to debate you too. You wonder
how much time has to pass from the assassination attempt
that we still don't have answers on and when you
(24:43):
can start, you know, bashing, name calling, character assassinating Donald Trump.
Not as much time as you think.
Speaker 7 (24:51):
And make no mistake, violent crime was up under Donald Trump.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
That's not even counting the Crimes Committee.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
The Trump campaign is attacking Kamala Harris's running mate, Governor
Tim Walls of Minnesota. Mark Mayfield has those details.
Speaker 10 (25:09):
The campaign's press secretary called Walls, a West Coast wannabe
who is a dangerously liberal extremist. Republicans wasted no time
in branding the Democratic ticket the most liberal ticket in
American history. Walls is a former educator and congressman who
served in the Army National Guard on Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Well, he knows that, But do most Americans know anything
about Tim Walls? Lisa Taylor has more.
Speaker 8 (25:31):
An NPR, PBS News Maris National poll found that nearly
three quarters of Americans said they don't know enough about
the Minnesota governor to have an opinion on him. Of
those remainings, seventeen percent had a positive opinion and twelve
percent had an unfavorable opinion.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
I'm Lisa Taylor, seventeen twelve, and what you're going to
know about him is going to be piled on in
a short period of time like a news cycle, in
a matrix where one half will give you every DUI,
every COVID fraud. You wonder how that's going to play out. Meanwhile,
former President Trump says he's going to take part in
(26:05):
an interview Wait Fox ABC No with Elon Musk where
everybody is on X. Brian Shook has details on his
truth social platform. Trump said the interview will take place
Monday night. He added that more details will be announced later.
The billionaire owner of X has voiced his support for Trump.
(26:27):
I'm Brian Shook. Voters in four states went to the
polls on Tuesday for key primary races. The biggest result
Missouri Squad member Progressive Corey Bush, lost her House seat
against a Democrat challenger, Saint Louis County Prosecutor Wesley Bell.
The race is highlighted divides within the Democrat Party concerning
Israel and Hamas you saw yesterday, the choice to avoid
(26:50):
Josh Shapiro in the key battleground state of Pennsylvania was
it because he was Jewish? And now the Israeli Hamas
war impacting. A Squad member Kamala Harris just bowed to
the far left of her party that her party is
done with I will tell well, we're not so cuckoo
for leaden ar Coco Pops. I'll tell you that right now.
(27:11):
Two federal lawsuits are seeking millions from General Mills Michael
cast reports.
Speaker 11 (27:19):
Plaiming to have say Coco Pops cereal could contain high
levels of lead. The suits filed recently in Minnesota, and
California are calling for more than five million dollars in
damages for consumers nationwide. One suit claims one cup serving
of Coco Pups contained just a little less than the
state's maximum allowable limit of point five micrograms of lead.
(27:40):
I'm Michael Kastner in sports.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
The US women's soccer team is going to play for
gold on Saturday in the Paris Olympics. They defeated Germany,
won nothing yesterday. I watched every second. It was thrilling.
They go for the gold on Saturday. The US women's
volleyball team continued their dominance and straight set wins over Poland.
Team USA will take out Brazil in the semi finals
Thursday afternoon. American Gabby Thomas is celebrating her first career
gold medal, and they all add up. The US now
(28:04):
leads the world in total medals and gold medals eighty
six overall, twenty four of them gold, thirty one silver,
thirty one bronze.
Speaker 7 (28:17):
Hi.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
I'm Dennis of People of Mississippi and my morning show
is your Morning Show with Michael Jill Jordan.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
I am fascinated by this question of the day, and
I'm going to pose it to a Supreme Court bar attorney,
and a White House correspondent and a guy who's been
doing this for decades, John Decker. So here we get
the great unknown seventy one percent according to Poling to
be exact Tim Walls. Is that a good thing or
a bad thing to be unknown? It depends.
Speaker 12 (28:47):
It really depends in the sense that we'll see how
each side defines Tim Walls. He has an opportunity out
of the box to define himself. Republicans realize that a
significant percentage of Americans do not know who he is,
so for them, it's a great opportunity to define him
in ways that will be beneficial to the Trump Vand's ticket.
(29:08):
But we're going to see that happen, and that's why
I think for him Walls in particular, it really is
important that he gets out there does television interviews. He's
never been afraid of going on Fox News and taking
some tough questions, so I would not be surprised to
see that happen over the course of the next week
or so, so that he himself can go out there
and explain his issues, to talk about his background, talk
(29:30):
about what he's done, and explain what his vision of
the future is and how it aligns with the Vice
president's vision of the future.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
And that's why I love talking to you. You nailed it,
because both sides are going to try to define them.
The left will give their narrative as to why he
is the right choice. The right, in a matrix, will
give their narrative on how he isn't. But here's the
bottom line. You and I live the people who know
us best to our family, right, They've seen our best
moments and our worst moments. They know us over decades
and years. Here's a guy unknown, and he's going to
(30:00):
be defined in a news cycle that is so humanly unfair,
and so I think it is. It's a two edged sword.
It can work for them or against him. Do the
Democrats have a problem with those like Van Jones yesterday
questioning whether or not Shapiro wasn't chosen because a he
would upstage her or b because he's Jewish.
Speaker 12 (30:22):
No, I don't think so. I saw those comments by
Van Jones. I spoke to so many people that were
attending that campaign rally yesterday in North Philadelphia, and yeah,
they were disappointed. That's their home stake. Governor Joshapiro, who's
incredibly popular in Pennsylvania. You saw that the reaction that
he got if you're watching his speech, but they're not.
(30:43):
They've gotten over that disappointment. They've now embraced Tim Walls.
I think it was helpful that Joshapiro embraced Tim Walls too,
and he'll do everything he can to help out Harrison
Walls in November. So I think that any disappointment that
someone may have, they if they're a Democrat, they get
over it quickly. They say, Okay, this is the team
(31:04):
that we have. Let's work to elect this team.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
It did feel a little bit like watching The Bachelor,
and you know he's going to take Girl A or
Girl Bee. He choose to go to Girl Bee's house
and make the announcement. He chose girl A. It was
that part was you know, but you know. The subtitle
to our visit is an Unusual twenty twenty four election Cycle.
John Decker is our White House correspondent. Last question is simple.
(31:28):
A lot of people think that the October surprise was
really a July surprise, the exit of Joe Biden, the
entrance of Kamala Harris, or do we still have an
October surprise to come.
Speaker 12 (31:40):
Oh, this cycle has been you know, fascinating, you know, Michael,
in the sense that there's been a May surprise, there's
been a June surprise, there's been a July surprise. I
don't think we're done yet. I think I think there's
more on tap. We'll have to wait and see, hopefully,
you know, it's not a crazy surprise, or you know,
a surprise that is not good in terms of someone's
(32:03):
safety or physical well being. But to me, I don't
think we're done with those surprises yet. That's the kind
of election cycle that we're dealing with right now, and
for me, as it relates to what's happening in the campaign,
don't pay attention to the polls right now. Let's wait
until a lot of stuff is past us, and that
means the DNC may be a debate, and then we'll
(32:24):
see poles that will indicate where this race actually stands.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
For November, well, we know in August we're going to
have a convention and a nineteen sixty eight ers. It's
ugly head and there's tens of thousands of protesters registering
and wanting longer routes because there's so many. We could
see a lot of that in August, September, October. That's right, Hey, Money,
I think actually I had somebody ask me if you know,
(32:49):
do you think Aroan took any cues in what they
will do from the choice Kamala Harris May And of
course that's nonsense. There They've got other factors that you're
directing them. But I actually think when it comes to
September and October, things that have been brewing, Like we
just did a report with Roory O'Neil, our average median
income is just not meeting the average medium home price,
(33:11):
home ownership is out of range. You know, inflation is
still high, and we're slipping towards the recession and then
the war in the Middle East. Those are the things
that are outside this election that may be the most
impactful comes up dated October.
Speaker 12 (33:24):
Most unpredictable. Michael, You're right, and there's no control that
Harris or Trump have over those outside events, so that
those could be certainly some surprises that we may see.
We'll get new jobs reports for the month of August,
the month of September, the month of October before the election,
and that will also give us an indication about where
our economy is set it.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
I love my company, I love my audience, I love
my team, and you're my captain. Thanks for stopping by.
We'll talk again tomorrow. John Decker, great understanding. Yeah, these
are very interesting times. And if you think they're weird
so far, the way this play is playing out, it's
only gotta get weirder.
Speaker 2 (34:03):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michael Ndel Choano
Hey, it's me Michael. Your morning show can be heard
live five to eight am Central, six to nine Eastern
and great cities like Jackson, Mississippi, Akron, Ohio, or Columbus, Georgia.
We'd love to be a part of your morning routine
and we're grateful you're here. Now. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Well two three, starting your morning off right, A new
way of talk, a new way of understanding.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Because we're in the stickiffic.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
This is your morning show with Michael del Jordan.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Thank you, Mike McCann. Six minutes after the hour, Thanks
for waking up with your morning show. We're delighted you're here.
Grab yourself a cup of coffee. Let's make sense of
this day on the airon streaming live on your iHeartRadio app.
I'm Michael del Jordan. Well, Kamala's made her choice, and
her choice is an unknown by seventy one percent of America. Unknown.
(00:50):
He's also very far left. So in this week we've
had two major quotes the Kamala video, we gotta stay woke,
get woke, and stay woke. Well, say load to a
running mate, Tim Walls. Socialism, neighborliness, it's all the same,
but we can.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Get out there, reach out, make the case, and for
one thing, don't ever shy away more progressive values. One
person's socialism is another person's neighborliness.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Yeah, that's a bumper sticker waiting for a compact car.
David's not. He called it yesterday. The Kamala would choose walls.
The unknown American wants walls on its border, got walls
on its leftist ticket. David. This is the far left,
most far left ticket, Harris Walls, in the history of
American politics. Anyway. Can can you think of one more
(01:41):
left than this?
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Good morning, Michael. No, I can't, and your analysis is correct.
She went through the choices, and then those choices were
vetted through the power brokers and the necessary organizations that
have to call us together for them to get their votes.
And it was crystal clear that the other two plays
had even just a single position like Shapiro's position in
(02:06):
leaning favorably towards school choice. That's an automatic bleep. Kelly
was just too moderate, and so you have a delete.
So you go to a state that you're automatically going
to win, and you pick a vapid, sort of unknown
individual who can be a part of the entire puppet syndrome,
(02:26):
which is a campaign that's being controlled, as we both know,
by Podestosaurus and the progressive left and the money machine
that that represents. So okay, it's exactly predictable, it's exactly
on script. But what's interesting is that he is also
the point where the in an interview we did with
(02:46):
MSNBC recently, he's the person who brought out the weird line.
He's the one who started to call jd Vance weird
and then that basically infected all of the talking point
consultants working with the candidates, and so now anyone who
supports Donald Trump is weird. So we've gone from irredeemultiple
(03:07):
to the poorabules. Now people who just don't agree with
radical progressive leftism, they're simply weird.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
There's a Slate story. There's a Slate story entitled why
Tim Walls was the guy. He wasn't just a safe pick.
He earned it. So if you ask Kamala Harris, she'll
tell you she picked him for this.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Reason because he's the kind of person who makes people
feel like they belong and then inspires them to dream big.
And that's the kind of vice president.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
He will be.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
I'm sure JD and Donald feel very inspired and empowered
by being called weird. So the media will say, well,
that's how he got How does an unknown from Minnesota
state they probably already have in the bag get her attention? Well,
he got all the media. Remember we played the montage
Suddenly after he said that, everybody went with it, from
the White House to MSNBC, to CNN, to ABC, NBCCBS
(04:05):
to local acres. They were all rite on script with weird, weird, weird, weird, weird.
And that's apparently what got them the nod. What apparently
got Josh Shapiro not the nod. You're left with just
Jewish or upstages one of the two. He'd be stronger
than her, and you don't want the bottom of the
ticket out shining the top. Or he's Jewish and his
party can't decide if it's pro terrorist or pro Israel.
(04:27):
That's a legitimate criticism.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Well, and it's And the thing about this entire choice
and the hub upon which they base it, which is
the weird statement, is that this is a piece of
the strategy, the dehumanization of all opponents. Now, this is
not something that's exclusive on the left. Michael Human I've
spoken about this for years. How do you talk about
(04:51):
politics in America without attempting to dehumanize or categorize or
name called the people that you disagree with and the
ideas they disagree with. This is a dangerous place that
we're in where everything results into humanization. And when you're
coming right out of the chute getting the nomination for
(05:12):
being a heartbeat away from the President because you've had
the coolest quip about your opponents by dehumanizing them and
calling them weird, where's it going from here?
Speaker 1 (05:22):
You and I spent a lot of time encouraging believers
in reminding them that we're called to love our God
and we're called to love others as ourself. That's the
highest calling. I was talking with somebody who was going
through a really rough time, and I said, hey, you
get it. This is the highest calling we have. It's
not if you write a book. It's not if you're
pastor at church, it's not if your host of talk show.
The highest calling is being light in darkness. The highest
(05:44):
calling is being godly in an ever increasingly ungodly world.
So without that, I bring this up to make this point.
Without that I'd do it too, because it's just a
lot quicker and easier to say he's an idiot than
take the forty minutes to say he's not an idiot,
but what he believes is wrong. And here's why I
believe it's wrong. And that's what we don't do because
(06:07):
it just doesn't work on social media. Everything has to
be cutting and quick and in punchline form. Now to
this point you're making, it is not a strength that
he is an unknown. It is his biggest weakness. And
here's why this nature I'm talking about. You've known me
how long? Twenty we're going on fifteen years? I think?
Are we twelve years?
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Let's get long, all right?
Speaker 1 (06:29):
So when I do things that are really irritating to people,
that doesn't even register with you. Because you've known me
for a long period of time. You know all my strengths,
you know all my weakness. You've seen my best moments,
you've seen my worst moments. You have context for me.
Somebody just meeting me and they don't see me the
way God sees me. They don't know my heart. They
(06:51):
don't know how far I've grown, they don't know how
far I'm still going to go. They don't have anything
contextually the way God has it. They form an opinion
based on words and actions in the moment. Well, here's
Tim Walls, and seventy one percent of America doesn't know
who he is, and all of the media in a matrix,
especially the right, is going to tell you everything about
(07:12):
this guy, from his COVID hotline to turn in your
neighbors to COVID fraud to DUIs. You're going to get
every mistake this man has made over a lifetime in
the next forty eight to seventy two hours, and then
you're going to form your opinion. That's not fair and
it's timing and its totality, especially in this name calling
(07:32):
and labeling, which he's guilty of. I mean, this is
why he's on the ticket. He's the one that coined
the phrase they're weird. Well, guess what America is gonna
have something probably even worse than weird, to think about
him when this same media is done with him, the
same media he victoriously crafted weird with. It's it's fascinating
to me.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Just this, the dehumanization process Michael is dangerous. It's what
was the fundamental rub.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Or of the way that.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
The totalitarian regimes at the end of the twentieth century
got to where they were, they dehumanized their opponents. You know,
Tim Tim Wallas has got an interesting quote he said
in his small town upbringing the definition of the Golden Rule,
and I quote was mind your own damn business. Now,
I'm really wrestling with the theological import of that.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Is that really what.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
The Old Testament meant when it said love you maybeers yourself?
Is that really what Christ meant when he summarized the
totality of biblical truth and two commandments.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Love Gods, david nations, and mind your own business?
Speaker 3 (08:37):
And mind furthermore, if the gold rules mind your own
damn business, what are you doing in politics?
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Yeah? Mind your owndamnes take it. I these are the conversations,
and I may cancel the rest of my hour for
you because these are all beauty. So so you and
I followed this, and we know it's really about Pedestine Soros.
That's the Van Trilloquist the dummies. Clinton's forver eight ears,
Obama's for eight ears. I don't mean that mean, I
(09:03):
meant as an eventriloquis dummy, all right. So they're playing
these people and now the new puppets are going to
be Harris and Walls. But keep in mind, Podesta is
the only one that occupies real estate in both camps,
so he has the Clinton apparatus, strategists, foot soldiers in
(09:26):
his camp as well as the Obama He had to
marry them, and chose to marry them with Biden, who
he hit in the basement, Harris, who couldn't win because
she was just nasty and goofy. And then then now
they're gonna get Harris without ever running a primary race
and put her with the Walls. But you know that
there are those two. Those two camps exist, the Clinton
(09:47):
camp in the Obama camp. So everybody's kumbai yaying yesterday
over Mama La Kamala. She's no longer the weaker than
only thing weaker than Joe Biden part of the ticket.
She's a messiah now and she just chose the most
It's amazing choice. Everybody's just selling the narrative, selling the
narrative except Van Jones. He is the XO, if you will,
(10:11):
He's the lieutenant colonel of Camp Obama. And yesterday, as
CNN is leaking, the pick is not Shapiro and the
pick is Walls. Listen to what he was saying in
the moment, You're gonna love this.
Speaker 6 (10:25):
A lot of people are excited, but it's not all
one way. You do have the other side of this thing,
which is, first of all, what worries me is you
see a lot of relief from the Conservatives. They were
scared of Josh Shapiro concern, they were scared of a
Mark Kelly. They thought that would help define Comblin Moore
to the middle. You see a lot of rejoicing on
(10:46):
the right. That's not good. Also, you've got some disquiet
in the Jewish community. Some people had their hopes up.
Maybe you're gonna get another shot at the Jewish vice president.
We haven't had that for two decades, and now that
gets pulled away. Is it just because he's aerate or
is there some anti Jewish bias here?
Speaker 1 (11:03):
So what I find fascinating about this is, here's van
Jones of me, because you and I both know the
plan probably was use Joe in a basement like a
trojan horse, change election laws, weaponizing COVID, get him elected,
and then have him step aside and hand it off
to Kamala. And that way the Podesta apparatus is complete,
(11:24):
but Joe goes rogue and refuses to leave, and refuses
to leave well into this election cycle. Did Kamala maybe
go rogue yesterday? And that's the Obama apparatus speaking to
the rogueness in this choice.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
That's a really good question, and I think it all
comes down to what does the money say. They're not
going to do anything that violates the fundamental pocketbook of
the source regime, no matter how it displays itself through
which organization Arabella Advisors and all their networks for Wall Street,
or or directly through Citizens for American Progress Action and
(12:03):
their networks. So I think that the three were pretty
much consensus. I think more likely that they went through
the groups that, even though they're funded, and they signed
on with CAP and with Protestant, that they need like
they don't want to go up against the Teachers' Union now.
(12:24):
So Shapiro was too dangerous. They were uncomfortable with Kelly
for other reasons. They needed the most Plato malleable position
and that's what Walls represented to them, So it was
just the safest pick. I don't think it's really much
more to outthink than match.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
I think it was the safest pick, all right, safe
but also unknown, And boy, you better have vetted good
because if something I mean, I'm already seeing stuff like
DUI and COVID fraud and other things, a lot will
pend on how well they vetted that. All right, So
you have an unknown. I think that's a negative, not
a positive. With you. It's safe, that's for sure. It's
(13:02):
the most left ticket. I mean, I got to be
honest with you. Just staring at the words on paper, Biden,
Harris looks more formidable than Harris Walls, I mean to me.
And then all right, so you secured Minnesota that you
probably had already, But Arizona's still in play, Michigan still
in play, Wisconsin's still in play, Pennsylvania is still in play.
(13:24):
Maybe I've been doing it as long as you. I'm
not as good at it as you. I'm not getting this.
I don't see what the big victory is. They can
narrativize it, they can create emotion in an arena, but
I don't see it playing out necessarily. In fact, I'm
looking at fifty percent of the Jewish vote in New
York is behind Trump right now. That's how poorly this
could spin against them.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Well, this is where it gets down to their number
council on micro targeting and the confidence that they have
that by their total media dominance across all of corporate media,
they will sell the happy narrative and their back up
the two backup plans is the short field. They're now
into the seventy day zone on voting, and so every
time they get a three day romantic tick up in
(14:08):
the media, that's three days closer to an election. They
believe they can control the narrative and they can control
the media to the nth degree. And then their last
piece is what has no one get acedient is what
they will roll out in the last fifty days in
regards to their negative campaign on Trump. They've got to
let the assassination attempt completely get off the shelf where
(14:29):
the sympathy factor would go toward Trump, so that when
they unleash their canons on him in regards to negative
advertising in his campaign, that they're able to prevail. Have
total confidence in the immediate machine. It doesn't matter who's
at the top of the ticket. They'll control the message.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Yeah, well that kind of started yesterday.
Speaker 7 (14:47):
Listen and make no mistake, violent crime was up under
Donald Trump. That's not even counting the crimes he committed.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
Yeah, so I don't know that are necessarily going to wait, Well,
you could peak a little too soon, and then if
nineteen sixty eight whears its ugly head. In twenty twenty four,
back in Chicago for the convention, with what's happening in
the Middle East, what we know is brewing, with tens
of thousands of protesters planning to be there. There's a
there's a lot more to this movie yet to play out,
that's for sure.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
There is, and it's on a short field, on a
short field place to their advantage.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
More with David Sinati hopefully tomorrow. This is your morning
show with Michael del Trono. If you're just waking up.
Kamal has made her choice.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Everybody's kumbai yaying behind the Minnesota governor Tim Walls. But
most of America have no idea who the guy is.
And when I say most, I mean seventy one percent.
Lisa Taylor has more.
Speaker 8 (15:46):
N n PR, PBS News, Maris National poll found that nearly
three quarters of Americans said they don't know enough about
the Minnesota governor to have an opinion on him. Of
those remainings, seventeen percent had a positive opinion and twelve
percent had an unfavorable opinion. I'm Lisa Taylor, and I.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Might add, of those who do know who he is,
that's so good and what will it become? As the
attack begins, Republicans are kicking off an investigation and de
Vice President Kamala Harris's handling of the southern border Pakistan,
Pakistani national with ties to Iran as in custody charged
(16:23):
with plotting to assassinate former President Donald Trump, and tropical
storm Debbie is poised to break rainfall records in both
Georgia and South Carolina. We continue to follow our top stories.
Roy O'Neil's going to join us in just a few moments. Hey,
it's Michael reminding you that your morning show can be
heard live each weekday morning five to eight Central, six
to nine Eastern in great cities like Nashville, Tennessee two below,
(16:44):
Mississippi at Sacramento, California. We'd love to be a part
of your morning routine and take the drive to work
with you. What better late than never. We're grateful you're
here now, enjoy the podcast. This is your morning show.
I am Michael del Jarno on the Aaron streaming Live
on your iHeart rate. Well consequences. We have low inventory
(17:07):
in housing, we have high home prices, we have stagnant wages,
we have high interest rates. Put it all together, and
the dream of home ownership is getting further and further
out of reach. But for how long is the question?
Morio O'Neal is joining us. It's a pretty simple gauge, right,
We look at how much money it takes and what
houses cost, and the numbers just don't add up, do they.
Speaker 5 (17:30):
Yeah, And even for people who own a home, say
you're ten years in on your thirty year mortgage, a
lot of homeowners like that feel stock. They're sort of
house rich and cash poor. Yes, they have a pretty
good rate, but the cost of the insurance has gone
way up these past few years. The taxes are higher,
the cost of you know, putting a new roof on
(17:53):
has skyrocketed as well. And a lot of households are
also feeling this tinge or they're in a jam and
if they sell, they're like, oh, wait, though, I don't
want to sell because I've got this great three percent
rate and that's going to double.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
If I try to move this something else. Yeah, we
talk about the inflation effect, and obviously groceries and energy
gets talked about a lot, and you often hear the
number kicked around. We're trying to get to two percent inflation. Well,
that that's year to year. The problem is from COVID,
you're paying thirty percent more for your groceries. You're paying
an excessive amount for your fuel. But yeah, things like
(18:28):
insurance that go unnoticed our way up. And that's all
a part of home ownership. It's in your ESCRO account.
And so you know, you bring up those that are
struggling because they're asset rich but cash poor. For those
that stretch themselves to the furthest limit of what they
could afford, they're probably falling behind.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
Right well right, and as you said, wages really aren't
keeping up. Looking at this HSH study in Nashville in particular,
where the average home is selling for four hundred four
hundred and somewhere in that range, you need to earn
a household earnings of one hundred and five thousand dollars
roughly in order to afford a home. And you know,
(19:09):
for a lot of families that's that number has just
got not a reach.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
So what are the options. Well, the options are, if
push comes to shove, you could sell your home, you
will get top dollar. You can go rent somewhere and
ride out the storm till things get a little more normal,
or find a market where in this ever increasing gig economy,
or what you do for a living can be done
(19:34):
anywhere where the home median price matches the income a
little better. That's really it, and that's what the assumption
that one to three years will look very different.
Speaker 5 (19:45):
Well but right, and you're assuming, well, my fourth grader,
I'm going to have to take them out and oh no, wait,
the daughter, she's two years from graduating and we don't
want to pull her out of high school right now.
You know, all those other factors come into play. So yeah,
I mean, these can be the kind kind of problems
that keep you up at night, especially the cost of
that new car or repairing the car, or a lease
(20:06):
or the auto insurance has also gotten crazy. And it's
just that the consumer is getting squeezed from every side
of here. Have we ever been in this point before?
Anything comparatively historically? Well, again, like if you were in
a good spot, and if you don't need to move.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
And if the.
Speaker 5 (20:22):
Insurance rates haven't gotten you in trouble and you're your
ten fifteen years and then this mortgage, that's great. You
know your home values are probably way up. You're sitting
pretty but you know when it comes time to sell
later in life and do that downsizing, you know you
could be in a pretty good position, so long as
you know Miami isn't where you want to go, right right,
(20:43):
futible lass, non Cleveland might be the place to be.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Yeah, roy O'Neil joining us with our story. The median
home income is just not looking favorable compared to the
median home price. So home ownership is getting more and
more out of breach for Americans. You know, I sit
in a home with five of us, all five of us,
and I'll grant you I've got one eighteen year old
and two twenty year olds. I get that younger is
higher insurance, but not so much as a speeding ticket
(21:09):
among us, or any traffic violation. We're paying fourteen grand
a year for auto insurance. What is driving these insurance
rights up, Well, a.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
Lot of it, they'll tell you, is the cost of
Look at the cost of the cars, you're driving and
the cost to repair them. That's a big factor in
some of these auto premiums because you know, we're.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Not driving around cars that cost ten thousand dollars anymore.
Speaker 5 (21:32):
They're forty five fifty five thousand dollars vehicles, and when
they're in an accident, they cost that much more to make,
right of course, and the labor costs are higher, and
it goes up and down. So yeah, and auto insurance
has been frustrating. Homeowners insurance has been problems in places
like Florida, California, you know, wildfires there, hurricanes in Florida, Louisiana,
(21:53):
you know, are causing homeowners insurance premiums to be even
higher than your car insurance premiums in some places, again
pricing people out.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Well, we're living in inflation. Jimmy Carter's era was recession.
I think we have a self inflicted energy crisis that
was a real energy crisis then, and in malaise that
set in. Is this transitory as everyone is promised, time
will tell. How's it looking? Time will tell?
Speaker 5 (22:22):
You know again, I think that as the inflation number
comes back down, we're not going to get into deflationary times.
But we have seen salaries start to keep up. What
is it I think if I think the number is
nine point two percent for salary increases in the past
four years, which technically covers the broad inflation measure. But
you know, you and I both know that that doesn't
(22:43):
really cover the costs that we face when we go
to the supermarket.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
Rory will be back in the third hour to discuss
Wall Street took a historic beating on Friday and Monday
a little bit of a recovery Tuesday. What does Wednesday
hold in store for us? Rory will be back with
that story next home great reporting where we'll talk to
them all right, you're just waking out. Forty two minutes
after the hour, Here are in the top five stories
of the day, Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walls.
(23:12):
They kicked off their ticket and battleground state campaign tour yesterday.
Speaker 9 (23:18):
I stand it for you today to proudly announce I
am now officially the Democratic nominee.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Her choice the Minnesota governor, Tim Walls, appearing alongside of
Harris as she explains why he was her choice.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Because he's the kind of person who makes people feel
like they belong and then inspires them to dream big.
And that's the kind of vice president he will be.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
When you argued that Walls was chosen because he's the
one that coined the phrase jd Vance and Trump they're
weird and then it went viral, that's the kind of
guy we need on the ticket, he says he's very
excited to debate JD.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
Vance.
Speaker 7 (24:03):
And I gotta tell you, I can't wait to debate
the guy. That is, if he's willing to get off
the couch and show up.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Wall's a reservist, Vance, a marine. Wall is a social
studies teacher and a coach. JD. Vance a Yale law graduate.
I think he's ready to debate you too. You wonder
how much time has to pass from the assassination attempt
that we still don't have answers on and when you
(24:43):
can start, you know, bashing, name calling, character assassinating Donald Trump.
Not as much time as you think.
Speaker 7 (24:51):
And make no mistake, violent crime was up under Donald Trump.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
That's not even counting the Crimes Committee.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
The Trump campaign is attacking Kamala Harris's running mate, Governor
Tim Walls of Minnesota. Mark Mayfield has those details.
Speaker 10 (25:09):
The campaign's press secretary called Walls, a West Coast wannabe
who is a dangerously liberal extremist. Republicans wasted no time
in branding the Democratic ticket the most liberal ticket in
American history. Walls is a former educator and congressman who
served in the Army National Guard on Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Well, he knows that, But do most Americans know anything
about Tim Walls? Lisa Taylor has more.
Speaker 8 (25:31):
An NPR, PBS News Maris National poll found that nearly
three quarters of Americans said they don't know enough about
the Minnesota governor to have an opinion on him. Of
those remainings, seventeen percent had a positive opinion and twelve
percent had an unfavorable opinion.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
I'm Lisa Taylor, seventeen twelve, and what you're going to
know about him is going to be piled on in
a short period of time like a news cycle, in
a matrix where one half will give you every DUI,
every COVID fraud. You wonder how that's going to play out. Meanwhile,
former President Trump says he's going to take part in
(26:05):
an interview Wait Fox ABC No with Elon Musk where
everybody is on X. Brian Shook has details on his
truth social platform. Trump said the interview will take place
Monday night. He added that more details will be announced later.
The billionaire owner of X has voiced his support for Trump.
(26:27):
I'm Brian Shook. Voters in four states went to the
polls on Tuesday for key primary races. The biggest result
Missouri Squad member Progressive Corey Bush, lost her House seat
against a Democrat challenger, Saint Louis County Prosecutor Wesley Bell.
The race is highlighted divides within the Democrat Party concerning
Israel and Hamas you saw yesterday, the choice to avoid
(26:50):
Josh Shapiro in the key battleground state of Pennsylvania was
it because he was Jewish? And now the Israeli Hamas
war impacting. A Squad member Kamala Harris just bowed to
the far left of her party that her party is
done with I will tell well, we're not so cuckoo
for leaden ar Coco Pops. I'll tell you that right now.
(27:11):
Two federal lawsuits are seeking millions from General Mills Michael
cast reports.
Speaker 11 (27:19):
Plaiming to have say Coco Pops cereal could contain high
levels of lead. The suits filed recently in Minnesota, and
California are calling for more than five million dollars in
damages for consumers nationwide. One suit claims one cup serving
of Coco Pups contained just a little less than the
state's maximum allowable limit of point five micrograms of lead.
(27:40):
I'm Michael Kastner in sports.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
The US women's soccer team is going to play for
gold on Saturday in the Paris Olympics. They defeated Germany,
won nothing yesterday. I watched every second. It was thrilling.
They go for the gold on Saturday. The US women's
volleyball team continued their dominance and straight set wins over Poland.
Team USA will take out Brazil in the semi finals
Thursday afternoon. American Gabby Thomas is celebrating her first career
gold medal, and they all add up. The US now
(28:04):
leads the world in total medals and gold medals eighty
six overall, twenty four of them gold, thirty one silver,
thirty one bronze.
Speaker 7 (28:17):
Hi.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
I'm Dennis of People of Mississippi and my morning show
is your Morning Show with Michael Jill Jordan.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
I am fascinated by this question of the day, and
I'm going to pose it to a Supreme Court bar attorney,
and a White House correspondent and a guy who's been
doing this for decades, John Decker. So here we get
the great unknown seventy one percent according to Poling to
be exact Tim Walls. Is that a good thing or
a bad thing to be unknown? It depends.
Speaker 12 (28:47):
It really depends in the sense that we'll see how
each side defines Tim Walls. He has an opportunity out
of the box to define himself. Republicans realize that a
significant percentage of Americans do not know who he is,
so for them, it's a great opportunity to define him
in ways that will be beneficial to the Trump Vand's ticket.
(29:08):
But we're going to see that happen, and that's why
I think for him Walls in particular, it really is
important that he gets out there does television interviews. He's
never been afraid of going on Fox News and taking
some tough questions, so I would not be surprised to
see that happen over the course of the next week
or so, so that he himself can go out there
and explain his issues, to talk about his background, talk
(29:30):
about what he's done, and explain what his vision of
the future is and how it aligns with the Vice
president's vision of the future.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
And that's why I love talking to you. You nailed it,
because both sides are going to try to define them.
The left will give their narrative as to why he
is the right choice. The right, in a matrix, will
give their narrative on how he isn't. But here's the
bottom line. You and I live the people who know
us best to our family, right, They've seen our best
moments and our worst moments. They know us over decades
and years. Here's a guy unknown, and he's going to
(30:00):
be defined in a news cycle that is so humanly unfair,
and so I think it is. It's a two edged sword.
It can work for them or against him. Do the
Democrats have a problem with those like Van Jones yesterday
questioning whether or not Shapiro wasn't chosen because a he
would upstage her or b because he's Jewish.
Speaker 12 (30:22):
No, I don't think so. I saw those comments by
Van Jones. I spoke to so many people that were
attending that campaign rally yesterday in North Philadelphia, and yeah,
they were disappointed. That's their home stake. Governor Joshapiro, who's
incredibly popular in Pennsylvania. You saw that the reaction that
he got if you're watching his speech, but they're not.
(30:43):
They've gotten over that disappointment. They've now embraced Tim Walls.
I think it was helpful that Joshapiro embraced Tim Walls too,
and he'll do everything he can to help out Harrison
Walls in November. So I think that any disappointment that
someone may have, they if they're a Democrat, they get
over it quickly. They say, Okay, this is the team
(31:04):
that we have. Let's work to elect this team.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
It did feel a little bit like watching The Bachelor,
and you know he's going to take Girl A or
Girl Bee. He choose to go to Girl Bee's house
and make the announcement. He chose girl A. It was
that part was you know, but you know. The subtitle
to our visit is an Unusual twenty twenty four election Cycle.
John Decker is our White House correspondent. Last question is simple.
(31:28):
A lot of people think that the October surprise was
really a July surprise, the exit of Joe Biden, the
entrance of Kamala Harris, or do we still have an
October surprise to come.
Speaker 12 (31:40):
Oh, this cycle has been you know, fascinating, you know, Michael,
in the sense that there's been a May surprise, there's
been a June surprise, there's been a July surprise. I
don't think we're done yet. I think I think there's
more on tap. We'll have to wait and see, hopefully,
you know, it's not a crazy surprise, or you know,
a surprise that is not good in terms of someone's
(32:03):
safety or physical well being. But to me, I don't
think we're done with those surprises yet. That's the kind
of election cycle that we're dealing with right now, and
for me, as it relates to what's happening in the campaign,
don't pay attention to the polls right now. Let's wait
until a lot of stuff is past us, and that
means the DNC may be a debate, and then we'll
(32:24):
see poles that will indicate where this race actually stands.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
For November, well, we know in August we're going to
have a convention and a nineteen sixty eight ers. It's
ugly head and there's tens of thousands of protesters registering
and wanting longer routes because there's so many. We could
see a lot of that in August, September, October. That's right, Hey, Money,
I think actually I had somebody ask me if you know,
(32:49):
do you think Aroan took any cues in what they
will do from the choice Kamala Harris May And of
course that's nonsense. There They've got other factors that you're
directing them. But I actually think when it comes to
September and October, things that have been brewing, Like we
just did a report with Roory O'Neil, our average median
income is just not meeting the average medium home price,
(33:11):
home ownership is out of range. You know, inflation is
still high, and we're slipping towards the recession and then
the war in the Middle East. Those are the things
that are outside this election that may be the most
impactful comes up dated October.
Speaker 12 (33:24):
Most unpredictable. Michael, You're right, and there's no control that
Harris or Trump have over those outside events, so that
those could be certainly some surprises that we may see.
We'll get new jobs reports for the month of August,
the month of September, the month of October before the election,
and that will also give us an indication about where
our economy is set it.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
I love my company, I love my audience, I love
my team, and you're my captain. Thanks for stopping by.
We'll talk again tomorrow. John Decker, great understanding. Yeah, these
are very interesting times. And if you think they're weird
so far, the way this play is playing out, it's
only gotta get weirder.
Speaker 2 (34:03):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
