k FYI and Phoenix, Arizona, and Freedom one oh four

Speaker 1 (00:22):
Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding, because we're in this toget.
This is your morning show with Michael O'Dell John And just.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Like that, the weekend is passed. The Olympics have passed.
We press on towards the Little League World Series, hit.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
At football season.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
All life is just one sport to the next, isn't it.
Seven minutes after the hour, Thanks for waking up with
your morning show, and welcome to Monday, August the twelfth,
twenty twenty four, on the Erin's Dreaming Live on your
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Your show, I'm Michael del Jorna.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
While waking up, citing escalating regional tensions, the Pentagon says
the United States is strengthening forces in the Middle East.
Will break down what that four strength means. The Summer
Olympics are over closing. Ceremonies included appearances and performances from
the likes of Tom Cruise.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I you know, come on, I still don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
If anybody in Paris in that stadium saw any of
that past Tom Cruise driving off on the motorcycle.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Hope, Let's certainly hope not.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Jeffrey Lyon obviously not impressed with Snoop Dogg's performances or
the Red Hot Chili Peppers pitnything.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
Again, Snoop Dogg was the highlight.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Billie Eilish of Chorus, who likes to wear about six
sizes two big polo shirts, Well, the torch has been passed,
if you will on the flag for sure, as the
game's transfer from Paris to Los Angeles in four years. Meanwhile,
Hamas says it will not send a delegation for talks
to Israel and negotiators that was scheduled for Thursday. Has
(02:12):
Bela launched thirty rockets into Israel, not one got to
the ground, not a single casualty reported, and Chuckie Schumer
says that he will block a Republican proposal to cut
almost two billion dollars from the CDC. The CDC botched
COVID so greatly if anybody was paying attention, I once
(02:36):
told David Zanati, they're going to have to dismantle that
and start over, or it'll have no credibility. That lack
of credibility game begins. It is now a partisan funding fight,
and for a president. Donald Trump says, untruth Social, I
cannot solve this mystery for you. I want you to
know right up front. This is the third time Donald
Trump has referenced three debates. It did again on True Social,
(03:01):
including one in Grand Rapids, Michigan, between him and Vice
President Kamala Harris. But just one has been agreed upon
by both parties. So Trump comes out and says, oh, oh,
the first one's going to be September fourth in Harrisburg, Pennsylvany.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Ians kind an awful lot of specifics. Doesn't he to
be huge. It's gonna be huge, gonna be big.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Gonna be a PA that'll be on Fox News. A
second will be September tenth in Philadelphia on ABC, which
is the only one by the way that Camp Harris
even acknowledges, and he has a third debate September twenty
fifth and Grand Rapids to be broadcast on NBC. Harris says,
the only thing they know is the September tenth debate
(03:43):
that's been agreed upon, and that would be what two
in Michigan.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
No, what Grand Rapids, Philadelphia?
Speaker 5 (03:49):
No?
Speaker 1 (03:49):
One in PA? Two in PA. One in Michigan is
what Trump thinks.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Anyway, my point was going to be what do you
think the swing states are that everybody's concerned about? And
we have some new polling on that as well. But
let's do first things first. This is going to be
in the eye of the beholder if we start doing, like,
you know, top ten Olympic moments, because everybody has a
(04:16):
different favorite sport or a different moment that captured them.
But I think I can pretty much summarize for everyone
after twelve years since gold women's soccer. Do you know
that Mallory Swanson is the wife of former Vanderbilt star
(04:37):
and now Chicago cub shortstop.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Not Dabney what is his name, Dapney Coleman. No, that
would be ninety five Dansby Swanson. I do something Dansby.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
She got the gold, They got the gold and that
was the first in twelve years. I thought that was
a great With Katie ladecy there'd be so many.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
But how about the eight hundred meter.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
What's astounding is she becomes the first Olympic athlete to
furpete in the pool with that event twenty twelve, twenty sixteen,
twenty twenty, twenty twenty four. How do you stay the
top of your field for that long? Katie Ladecky does
men's gymnastics, that was pretty big to get their first medal,
(05:25):
even though it was a bronze since two thousand and eight.
And who would forget Steven Nedorzik the little you know
point dexter nerd with his glasses. He only specializes in
the pommel horse, but he becomes in like wild wild
thing out of the bullpen and secures the bronze for them.
That Scotty Scheffler number one in the world, number one
at the Olympics, not playing for any money, and there's
(05:48):
so much money associated with golf, but for Scotty Scheffler's
love of country played his heart out so stoic with
that fifty eight year old looking face, on a twenty
six year old box until the national anthem and the
last verse and he finally the emotions flow.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
That was a great Olympic moment for me. I kind
of fell in love with women's rugby. Yeah, you said
that several times.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
I will remember the twenty twenty four Games for the
Games that I discovered women's rugby, and that was huge,
our first ever medal and it was a bronze over Australia.
Noah Lyles, I mean, fastest man in the world with
the one hundred meter. That's a great A lot of
great track moments. Someone Biles becomes the most decorated women's
(06:34):
gymnast in history, eight total medals, five gold. She passes
Shannon Miller the women themselves when the team gold Steph Curry,
I mean every time he needed a big three he
got it him in Asia Wilson on the women's side,
stole stole the gold and a lot of hearts along
(06:55):
with it. Men's and women's basketball both taking home gold.
And then I guess it will be the Olympics known
as snoops.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Yeah, yeah, the snoops Olympics, So.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Snoop, you know, we'll all scratch our head for decades
to come.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Should we call them the Orizzles from now on?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
The Snizzles? Yeah, the Schnizzle Games.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
How on where did that come from? They'd be like
just grabbing Willie Nelson out of obscurity. I'm in Paris again,
and just all right, let's go that he's the mascot.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Snoop is the unofficial uncle of the United States. He's
the uncle that he's the cool uncle that everybody wants
to come to the family reunions and the barbecues.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
And that brings all the pot. Yeah, he does well,
Actually quit pot. We should give hi credit for that.
H married like thirty five years to the same woman.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I think he's nothing like his very involved in his
kid's life.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
You never hear him getting out of bounds like you
do with so many celebrities.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yeah, I think. You know, first of all, Paris was
a star.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Of the show, not so much the opening and some
of the offensive stuff, but the backdrop. It is one of,
if not the world's most beautiful city, and and they
certainly utilized that. I mean, I could bring up a
million things, but just putting the volleyball court at the
foot of the Eiffel Tower the way they used, you know,
(08:17):
using the sin at the in the opening ceremonies. It
was just a beautiful backdrop, absolutely gorgeous.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Until they had to get in it.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Well, well, they claimed they cleaned it up. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
I talked to three rats with large abdomen tours before
they told.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Them it's really fine. I'm gonna go with top moment.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
The US basketball game that ended it all yesterday against France.
It was like being on the other side of time
and the world watching the US and the Soviet. Now
in nineteen eighty we were in Lake Placid, we were
the home team, the Soviets were the unbeatable, and I'll
(09:15):
interrupt myself and say, if somebody doesn't sign that Gabby Williams,
there's nobody with any common sense in the WNBA. Her shot.
First of all, she had about three threes. I didn't
think the US was going to come back and win
that game. I didn't the way France was playing defense
in the first half, and the way Asia Wilson was
(09:37):
missing layups, it just looked like destiny. It It felt like,
oh my gosh, France is going to pull a US
nineteen eighty miracle. Hockey game against US and win this.
But the girls never quit and we get the win
by one point, which really translated to about one inch
of toes from Gabby Williams being over the three point
(09:59):
line or it would have gone to overtime. It was
a to the final buzzer from the very beginning, just
a spectacular basketball game. And I'm not going to go
there because you know, I'm not into all of that.
But you know, between between all the talk in America
(10:22):
for the last three months about professional women's basketball and
then being one of the stars of the Olympic Game Show,
they are somewhat.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Of a role.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
You gotta give him that. So the Olympic Games are
now history. From Paris, we go to Milan for the
Winter Games and then in four years to Los Angeles.
And if you didn't watch the closing ceremony, you know
Tom Cruise comes into the music of Mission Impossible from
the time. First of all, he is fearless, that guy.
(10:52):
I'll do anything, fly fighter jets, jump out of planes.
But from the top of the stadium he comes down
and he gets the Olympic, receives the Olympic flag, puts
it on the back of his Harley and speeds out
of the arena, and then I think you get a
lot of pre cut stuff with him going into a plane,
the plane taking off, him air dropping, parachuting down into California,
(11:16):
putting the rings on the Hollywood Sign, and then eventually
we end up at the beach where you get live
performances from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Billie Eilish, I
guess the if you're wondering the oddness of Billie Eilish,
Red Hot Chili Peppers, Snoop Dog. These were all Los
Angeles bans to celebrate Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
So music on the beach and that was it.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
The Olympics are behind us, and we press on back
towards politics.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Wait a minute, can we just replay the games? Speaking
of politics, Oh, we got the big hack.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Somehow somebody hacked the vet of JD Vance from Team
Trump and they're promising a lot more foreign government interference
into this election process. Don't these foreign governments know we
know how to interfere better than anyone. Step aside and
let us do this.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Did you not see Tom Cruise?
Speaker 2 (12:12):
We're the professionals at reaching into our own jaws of
victory and grabbing defeat but yeah, that's that's a big story,
the promise of that, and then of course the escalation
again for hast thirty rockets, not a single one, not
(12:33):
a single casualty in Israel. There was there was no
problem for the Israeli defense forces to block that.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
The question would be, is.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
That a hasbalat and we're still waiting at an Iranian
response and if so, what do we think the Iranian
response is?
Speaker 1 (12:48):
What was Iron waiting for? And all of this.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Amounts to citing escalate, escalating regional tensions. The Pentagon says,
the US is strengthening its forces. I'm gonna do this
real quick, though, Jeffrey, before we do Top five Stories
of the Day, So I want to get into that
they're going to bring in. Originally it was to relieve
the Theodore Roosevelt. Now we're sending the Lincoln in the
(13:14):
Georgia to join it. And I'll explain what all those
particular assets bring with them as America begins to build
up and position itself for an attack on Israel, to
defend Israel from Iran. We have that and all your
Top five Stories a Day to get us started.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Next, this is Your Morning Show with Michael deltrona.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
First Things, first time for your not one, not two,
not three, but top five stories of the day, twenty
six minutes after the hour, Thanks for waking up with
your morning show, our numero ulos. Citing escalating regional tension,
the Pentagon says the United States is strengthening forces in
the Middle East. A Pentagon statement issued on Sunday says
(13:58):
Secretary of State Lloyd Austin is reiterating that the Biden
administration has a commitment to take every possible step to
defend Israel.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Well, I like the sound of that. It took me
a while to find some what The.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
USSA Braham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group and the USS Georgia
Guided Missile Submarine are all headed to the region now.
The statement doesn't specify how long before they arrive. The
Lincoln contains F thirty five sea fighters, was originally scheduled
to arrive towards the end of this month, which is
(14:33):
only two weeks away, but it looks as though things
are more urgent than two weeks, and that was intended
to replace the USS Theodore Roosevelt. However, it looks as
though the Lincoln and the Georgia will be joining the Roosevelt.
I try not to sing this early in the morning
and upset anybody, but I can't resist.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Coma kma, kma kama, coma comee lee. Here's Mark Mayfield
with our Road to the White House.
Speaker 6 (14:57):
Road to the White House. Twenty twenty four. Donald Trump's
running mate is defending the former president's comments questioning Kamala
Harris's racial identity. In an interview with the CNN's State
of the Union, Ohio Senator J. D. Vance accused Harris
of being a comeleon.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
I believe that Kamala Harris is whatever she says she is,
but I believe importantly that President Trump is right that
she's a chameleon. She pretends to be one thing in
front of one audience, she pretends to be something different
in front of another audience.
Speaker 6 (15:22):
Trump last month claimed Harris was bi racial, previously claimed
Indian heritage but then turned black. And President Biden explaining
why he decided to end his re election campaign in
an interview with the CBS Sunday morning, Biden said polls
showed the race between him and Donald Trump was neck
and neck. He added he was concerned it would negatively
impact other Democrats running in the House and Senate in November.
I'm Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Well, I was Italian American for fifty nine years, and
then just this morning, I switched to Boyd George.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Somebody's got to do that spoof song.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Right, Karma Chameleon, Yes, Kamala Kameili Easy. President Biden is
explaining why he decided to end his election campaign.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Rob Marty eight reports.
Speaker 7 (15:59):
In an interview with CBS Sunday Morning, Biden implied he
was indeed thrown under the bus by his own party
and oh those pesky down ballot races.
Speaker 8 (16:08):
But what happened was a number of my Democratic colleagues
and the House of Senates thought that I was going
to hurt them in the races, and I was concerned
if I stayed in the race.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
That would be the topic.
Speaker 7 (16:23):
Biden announced last month he would end his campaign amid
pressure from other Democrats following his poor debate performance against
Trump and amid concerns over his mental acuity. I'm Rob Martyr.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Oh, I'll admit it. I kind of miss him. I
kind of missed the.
Speaker 6 (16:38):
Daily so bad.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Oh Hi, it's Michael.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Your morning show can be heard live on great radio
stations across the country like Wylm and w DOV and
Wilmington and Dover, Delaware or wgst AM seven twenty the
Voice in Middle Georgia.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
We're going to need some blankets.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
News Radio six fifty k E NI Anchorage a LSS.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
We'd love to be a part of your morning routine.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Now enjoy the podcast, get yourself a cup of coffee,
and engage yourself.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
It is Monday, August the twelfth, twenty twenty four.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Citing escalating regional tensions, the Pentagon says the US is
strengthening its forces in the Middle East.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
The Summer Olympics are over. When it's all.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Said and done, the torch if you will, and the
flag has been passed from Paris to Los Angeles for
the Summer Games in four years. And as for Paris,
the US ends it with more medals than anyone else
in the world, tied with China for the gold and
Hama says it will not send delegates to talks with
Israel's negotiators scheduled for this Thursday.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
So a bit of a setback, all right. Election news.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Look, you have to remember that in twenty sixteen, Donald
Trump won the election over Hillary Clinton.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
We're talking by.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Handfuls of votes in swingest of swing pre he sinks,
let alone districts, let alone swing states, and what we
saw like in Michigan and Wisconsin where Trump took it
in twenty sixteen and then Biden in twenty took it
by the same handful of votes. So we know this
(18:16):
is going to be a close race. We know this
is going to come down to the swing states, and
we know there's a lot to play out, things within
the campaign's control and things outside of the campaign's control.
So every morning when we visit, that's kind of what
we're keeping our eye on, right what's going on. So
you don't want to overreact to a lot of these poles.
(18:38):
This particular latest poll that broke right before the weekend
was really at the pinnacle of despair, hopelessness.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
There should have been more.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Shock, well no, really less shock and more at how
they have hidden Joe Biden from you in the condition
he was in until the debate, and the very media
that like a posse wore him down and ran him
out of town where the very one's covering for him.
They kind of revealed their own scandal, certainly Kamala scandal,
(19:20):
Kamala days before was telling you, Oh, they completely gaslighted us.
He's not senile. He's running circles around in turns. So
they finally get rid of Joe. Kamala comes on board.
This begins right about when she's announcing, so all the
(19:40):
attention was on her, and she's about to announce, and
maybe there's a day or so after she announces Tim
Walls And here's how it looks. According to the polls
released by Siana College for The New York Times, Harris
tops Trump by four points fifty to forty six percent
among voters in Michigan, Pennsylvanian, Wasisconsin. Trump saw his polling
(20:03):
edge over Biden expand in the wake of late June's
disastrous debate performance. So you're just had an EBB. So
it's almost closer to where it was before the debate.
So her high. I can't prove this, but this would
(20:26):
be my exegete or observation. This is probably as high
as it gets for Kamala. Sooner or later, she's got
to do an interview. Sooner or later, she's got a debate.
They're about to have I think a potentially very distracted
convention in Chicago. And who knows what else is on
(20:48):
the horizon, And I don't have to tell you. Since
this survey was done, Tim Walls hasn't had such a
good time. The vetting of his resume has been aproat.
So if this is as good as it gets for
Kamala Harris her, as good as it gets is about
what Joe's good as it gets was, which means we
(21:10):
have a very close race.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Don't drive yourself crazy.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Is going to come down to Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Arizona,
unless there's some surprises elsewhere. The Georgia's, North Carolina's and
there'll be other ones that have some pretty big says.
But those are the swing states, the same as twenty twenty,
(21:36):
the same as twenty sixteen, and in Trump Hillary went
Trump's way at two hundred and Biden Trump, with a
lot of help from mail in votes and weaponizing COVID,
it went Biden's way. I think this looks a pretty
dead heat at this point. I want to break down
(21:59):
just a couple of because you know, all these numbers
that don't have Kennedy or Kennedy mostly but Jill Stein
in there, Cornell West, the Independent, they're not accurate.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
So what's the impact.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Well, according to the new surveys in multi candidate fields,
Harris edges Trump by two points. So Pennsylvania is still
very very close. Now it's showing with the multiple candidates
in Michigan and Wisconsin that Harris's lead goes to five
(22:37):
points in Michigan and six points in Wisconsin. I'd have
to really dig into the sample size of this sugar
high moment that it was taken. But that ain't gonna hold.
And I know that the media is completely ignoring.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
RF.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
But he's going to be on forty eight of the ballots,
going to be very present in Michigan, and he is
going to have more of effect in Michigan. I think
down the road, once we get past the Democratic Convention,
then the next biggest election type debate is over the debate.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
So we have Donald Trump.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Releasing on True Social Oh yeah, We're having three debates
and then he gets all specific. September fourth, we're going
to debate in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. That's gonna be a Fox
News debate. We have a second on September tenth in
Philadelphia that's going to be on ABC. And then there's
going to be a third on September twenty fifth in
Grand Rapids. That'll be on NBC. Now, because he throws
(23:39):
in the cities and the networks, it sounds like it's done,
So I really don't know if it is a done deal.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
And he just released.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
The done deal before Kamala and Walls, who have been
in hiding all weekend, probably strategically and on purpose, have
had a chance to announce it. But so far the
Harris camp has only confirmed the September tenth debate. But
will we have three and a vice presidential debate? Time
will tell. There is a This is kind of more
(24:13):
for the social media and the internet, But the big
story is Vice President Kamala Harrison Nevada Saturday promise to
eliminate taxes on tips, two months after President Trump made
the same promise. Now, if this is the beginning of
something she plans to do, never discuss her stances on
the issues when it comes to border, when it comes
(24:37):
to inflation, energy, Israel, and then every now and then,
just as a tactic, throw in something minor that she
agrees with with Donald Trump, and then they'll try to
tell you that they're the Joy campaign. The Tim Walls
who lied about carrying a right in military combat, who
(25:03):
lied about leaving the National Guard before he had to
be deployed, has basically said to everyone you know he
is completely for sanctuary cities, completely for pathway to citizenship.
(25:28):
He has gotten specific on something, but Kamala Harris not
a peep. You won't find a single thing about her
stance on any issue. In fact, I encourage you to
go to Harris for President. I saw somebody make a
comment on social media, so I went and.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Boy was he right now.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
This poor guy on social media was just trying to
find some information. He claims to be a libertarian, and
he's thinking about voting for Kamala Harris. But he can't
find anything about where she stands on the issues. And
I thought, well, that can't be. So I go to
Kamala Harris dot com. There's the Harris Walls logo at
the top. There's a big thing to donate twenty five dollars,
(26:09):
forty seven dollars, you get it, forties even give forty
seventh president just in case you didn't, one hundred dollars,
two hundred and fifty one thousand or other. Oh, front
and center is how to give to her. Then it
says meet Vice President Kamala Harris. And then it's paragraph
after picture after paragraph after picture, just this narrative bio
(26:31):
all about her. Not a single mention of a single
issue or a stance on a single issue or.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
A promise, nothing political about it whatsoever.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
So I thought, well, maybe that's just the drop page, right,
so I hit menu, Meet Kamala Harris. That's narrative, paragraph
after picture. Then they have one for Tim Walls, picture
after narrative. The take action is to give I'm coming
of events stores so you can go buy Harris Walls.
(27:06):
There's nothing the guy's right if he is genuinely trying
to have an interview process between he the hierer and
them the applicants and a presidential that you can't that
we do have one story about Walls of stance, like
(27:28):
on illegal immigration. But but it's so out of step
with the American people that they think they can just
hide it in plane sight.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
And that's what makes me believe that if.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
You're talking all day about her copying Trump on eliminating
taxes on tips, well you're playing their game for him.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
It's worse than that they're hiding in plain sight. And
now we've got the.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
Trump hacking, the promise from bad players on the world stage,
and they're going to do a lot more to disrupt
this election than just this, like we need any help.
And then my favorite story of the day, what's coming
at the convention? The headline in the Washington Post pro
(28:18):
Palestinian protesters about massive showing at the Democratic Convention. We'll
have more on that as your morning show continues.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Hi, They're up, Timy Stevens and my morning show is
your Morning Show with Michael.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
The Summer Olympics are in our rearview mirror.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
The US had more medals than any other country and
tied China with gold forty overall.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
Last night we said goodbye with Tom Cruise.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Falling from the roof, Snoop Dog, Billie Eilish, Redout, Jillie Pellett,
Pepper's celebrating on the beach in Los Angeles. Somewhere in Connecticut,
Aaron slept through the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
I'm guessing it's so true.
Speaker 9 (28:58):
No, I did. Actually, my husband texted me from downstairs
and was like, oh, Phoenix is playing, And Phoenix was
the first concert we went to together. So I was like, oh,
that's nice now, see, but yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
I have to be honest with you, I had never
heard of Phoenix, Jeffrey, you probably did, right, Well, No,
I didn't, Okay, because Jimmy Fallon seemed to know everything
about them.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
So what are they but what they sing in multiple languages?
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Right?
Speaker 9 (29:24):
I just know like that they had They're very millennial like,
and we were in our mid twenties and having a
blast at I remember it was Central Park summer and
we were just jamming out to Phoenix and forever it
will be like probably our shared favorite experience as a couple.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
So see, yes, I.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
Had a moment like that with the with Lyle Lovett
his large band, So I get that.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Yeah, they played that made sense.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Well, we couldn't figure out Jeffrey and I and I
guess i'd have to say, put your husband on the
air because you obviously know nothing about this. But I
don't think anybody in Paris after Tom Cruise drove off
on the motorcycle, I don't think they saw ont of
this other stuff that took place and was pre shot
in Los Angeles or the concert on the beach. So
some of the most embarrassing American stuff, hopefully we're the
(30:08):
only ones that saw it on NBC in America. Well,
here's a tough question for you. Should the President of
the United States get involved in decision making of the
Federal Reserve? Well, the answer is absolutely not. The bigger
questionation we even have a federal Reserve. But I digress.
Aaron Rail's here to take a look at. Well, Kamala
says no, and Trump says yes.
Speaker 6 (30:28):
I love how you said that.
Speaker 9 (30:29):
And the bigger question, and the right question is do
we want this, yes or no. It's not should it
be political? That is a bad idea, but you know,
like you said it perfectly. But Trump came out this
week and said, quote, I think that in my case,
I made a lot of money. I was very successful,
and I think I have a better instinct than in
(30:49):
many cases people that would be on the Federal Reserve
by the chairman of course. Okay, Yeah, Kamala came out
on Saturday and said I couldn't disagree more strongly. The
FED is an independent entity. As president, I would never
interfere with the decision making as a FED reminder, the
FED is in charge of monetary policy. The legislators we
elect are in charge of fiscal policy. They are two
(31:11):
different things. The FED has a dual mandate. They serve
it is a private institution that serves a public need,
the banking needs of the US government, and they try
and keep employment full, maximizable employment, and then inflation at
two percent.
Speaker 7 (31:24):
That's it.
Speaker 9 (31:25):
That's what they do. And the banking needs of the
US are different than regular places. We are the world's
reserve currency. We are a massive economic powerhouse, and basically
all other markets to revolve around what is generally set
by our FED for the most part.
Speaker 5 (31:40):
Other for the most part.
Speaker 9 (31:41):
I know policy walks. My contend with that, but the
idea being they are not a political body. They are
free from political pressure. Their board can make decisions based
solely on what is best for the US economy in
long term in theory.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
But the problem that Donald Trump isn't thinking about, and
he should be so well, none that has anything to
do with the executive branch of government. And that's why
if he wants to have a discussion, you have a
discussion about why it even exists, but you wouldn't want
to be involved over the FED because what if some
opposite ideology down the road or Joe Biden senile whoever
(32:19):
was really doing things for Joe Biden, just like you
wouldn't want them someday doing that.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
I mean it's a two edged sword.
Speaker 9 (32:25):
But yes, yes, you said it perfectly. And like I
don't know why politicians don't get you're like you only
have four years, eight years best case scenario, like this is,
this is not about that. And quick reminder, Jerome Pewell
is a Republican, so like this is not they. I've
always kind of taken solace in the fact that the FED,
you know, they're they're doing their best to keep the
(32:46):
wheels on while this were you know, careening this way
in that way, and they don't always get it perfectly right,
But like there hasn't been a cliff to go off justice.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
So how long before we have Joe Biden from the
Oval office? This guy because President's gonna take over the FED,
He's gonna.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
You know, I mean, it plays right into all that
nonsense as well, like Kamala Harris, for example, won't give
you a stance on any issue. Go to a website,
you can't find anything, and yet when he says something,
you know, like this, she'll jump on it and take
a stand. So that's a pretty good place to be, right,
everything that you stand for that America's against, like the
border and amnesty and pathway his citizenship and spending and
(33:27):
so on, or inflation or this or that or electric cars,
and then you stay pete, mum's the word on that.
And then when you get an open door like this,
you can talk about you know this and play him
out to be the boogeyman looking to take over the FED.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
I mean, I think you're right. I think it was
dumpling for Trump to do, but yeah, that.
Speaker 9 (33:45):
Was not and like listen, it's it's generally they have
done the free from voter approval, you know. And by
the way, the president can reappoint FED chair like so yes,
like you can, you can do that. And while they
might be influence by the public, they're not influenced to
get votes. And they're generally like the most sober people
(34:05):
in the room. You had Janet Yellen before, and like
it doesn't matter if you're like a hater. It's just
like this is not it's not a wild.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
Lady when when Eric comes, like, neither is your room pal.
Speaker 5 (34:16):
These are like some.
Speaker 9 (34:18):
Some austere people who are just policies you know they're
doing their best.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
Yeah, we're all in this together. This is your Morning
Show with Michael nhel Chow or No
Hey, it's me Michael.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Your morning show has heard live from five to eight
am Central, six to nine am Eastern, three to six
am Pacific on great radio stations like News Radio eleven
ninety k EX in Portland, News Talk five point fifty
k FYI and Phoenix, Arizona, and Freedom one oh four
seven in Washington, d C. We'd love to have you
join us live in the morning, even take us along
on the drive to work, but better late than never.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding, because we're in this toget.
This is your morning show with Michael O'Dell John And just.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Like that, the weekend is passed. The Olympics have passed.
We press on towards the Little League World Series, hit.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
At football season.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
All life is just one sport to the next, isn't it.
Seven minutes after the hour, Thanks for waking up with
your morning show, and welcome to Monday, August the twelfth,
twenty twenty four, on the Erin's Dreaming Live on your
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Your show, I'm Michael del Jorna.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
While waking up, citing escalating regional tensions, the Pentagon says
the United States is strengthening forces in the Middle East.
Will break down what that four strength means. The Summer
Olympics are over closing. Ceremonies included appearances and performances from
the likes of Tom Cruise.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I you know, come on, I still don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
If anybody in Paris in that stadium saw any of
that past Tom Cruise driving off on the motorcycle.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Hope, Let's certainly hope not.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Jeffrey Lyon obviously not impressed with Snoop Dogg's performances or
the Red Hot Chili Peppers pitnything.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
Again, Snoop Dogg was the highlight.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Billie Eilish of Chorus, who likes to wear about six
sizes two big polo shirts, Well, the torch has been passed,
if you will on the flag for sure, as the
game's transfer from Paris to Los Angeles in four years. Meanwhile,
Hamas says it will not send a delegation for talks
to Israel and negotiators that was scheduled for Thursday. Has
(02:12):
Bela launched thirty rockets into Israel, not one got to
the ground, not a single casualty reported, and Chuckie Schumer
says that he will block a Republican proposal to cut
almost two billion dollars from the CDC. The CDC botched
COVID so greatly if anybody was paying attention, I once
(02:36):
told David Zanati, they're going to have to dismantle that
and start over, or it'll have no credibility. That lack
of credibility game begins. It is now a partisan funding fight,
and for a president. Donald Trump says, untruth Social, I
cannot solve this mystery for you. I want you to
know right up front. This is the third time Donald
Trump has referenced three debates. It did again on True Social,
(03:01):
including one in Grand Rapids, Michigan, between him and Vice
President Kamala Harris. But just one has been agreed upon
by both parties. So Trump comes out and says, oh, oh,
the first one's going to be September fourth in Harrisburg, Pennsylvany.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Ians kind an awful lot of specifics. Doesn't he to
be huge. It's gonna be huge, gonna be big.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Gonna be a PA that'll be on Fox News. A
second will be September tenth in Philadelphia on ABC, which
is the only one by the way that Camp Harris
even acknowledges, and he has a third debate September twenty
fifth and Grand Rapids to be broadcast on NBC. Harris says,
the only thing they know is the September tenth debate
(03:43):
that's been agreed upon, and that would be what two
in Michigan.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
No, what Grand Rapids, Philadelphia?
Speaker 5 (03:49):
No?
Speaker 1 (03:49):
One in PA? Two in PA. One in Michigan is
what Trump thinks.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Anyway, my point was going to be what do you
think the swing states are that everybody's concerned about? And
we have some new polling on that as well. But
let's do first things first. This is going to be
in the eye of the beholder if we start doing, like,
you know, top ten Olympic moments, because everybody has a
(04:16):
different favorite sport or a different moment that captured them.
But I think I can pretty much summarize for everyone
after twelve years since gold women's soccer. Do you know
that Mallory Swanson is the wife of former Vanderbilt star
(04:37):
and now Chicago cub shortstop.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Not Dabney what is his name, Dapney Coleman. No, that
would be ninety five Dansby Swanson. I do something Dansby.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
She got the gold, They got the gold and that
was the first in twelve years. I thought that was
a great With Katie ladecy there'd be so many.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
But how about the eight hundred meter.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
What's astounding is she becomes the first Olympic athlete to
furpete in the pool with that event twenty twelve, twenty sixteen,
twenty twenty, twenty twenty four. How do you stay the
top of your field for that long? Katie Ladecky does
men's gymnastics, that was pretty big to get their first medal,
(05:25):
even though it was a bronze since two thousand and eight.
And who would forget Steven Nedorzik the little you know
point dexter nerd with his glasses. He only specializes in
the pommel horse, but he becomes in like wild wild
thing out of the bullpen and secures the bronze for them.
That Scotty Scheffler number one in the world, number one
at the Olympics, not playing for any money, and there's
(05:48):
so much money associated with golf, but for Scotty Scheffler's
love of country played his heart out so stoic with
that fifty eight year old looking face, on a twenty
six year old box until the national anthem and the
last verse and he finally the emotions flow.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
That was a great Olympic moment for me. I kind
of fell in love with women's rugby. Yeah, you said
that several times.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
I will remember the twenty twenty four Games for the
Games that I discovered women's rugby, and that was huge,
our first ever medal and it was a bronze over Australia.
Noah Lyles, I mean, fastest man in the world with
the one hundred meter. That's a great A lot of
great track moments. Someone Biles becomes the most decorated women's
(06:34):
gymnast in history, eight total medals, five gold. She passes
Shannon Miller the women themselves when the team gold Steph Curry,
I mean every time he needed a big three he
got it him in Asia Wilson on the women's side,
stole stole the gold and a lot of hearts along
(06:55):
with it. Men's and women's basketball both taking home gold.
And then I guess it will be the Olympics known
as snoops.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Yeah, yeah, the snoops Olympics, So.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Snoop, you know, we'll all scratch our head for decades
to come.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Should we call them the Orizzles from now on?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
The Snizzles? Yeah, the Schnizzle Games.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
How on where did that come from? They'd be like
just grabbing Willie Nelson out of obscurity. I'm in Paris again,
and just all right, let's go that he's the mascot.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Snoop is the unofficial uncle of the United States. He's
the uncle that he's the cool uncle that everybody wants
to come to the family reunions and the barbecues.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
And that brings all the pot. Yeah, he does well,
Actually quit pot. We should give hi credit for that.
H married like thirty five years to the same woman.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I think he's nothing like his very involved in his
kid's life.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
You never hear him getting out of bounds like you
do with so many celebrities.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yeah, I think. You know, first of all, Paris was
a star.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Of the show, not so much the opening and some
of the offensive stuff, but the backdrop. It is one of,
if not the world's most beautiful city, and and they
certainly utilized that. I mean, I could bring up a
million things, but just putting the volleyball court at the
foot of the Eiffel Tower the way they used, you know,
(08:17):
using the sin at the in the opening ceremonies. It
was just a beautiful backdrop, absolutely gorgeous.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Until they had to get in it.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Well, well, they claimed they cleaned it up. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
I talked to three rats with large abdomen tours before
they told.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Them it's really fine. I'm gonna go with top moment.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
The US basketball game that ended it all yesterday against France.
It was like being on the other side of time
and the world watching the US and the Soviet. Now
in nineteen eighty we were in Lake Placid, we were
the home team, the Soviets were the unbeatable, and I'll
(09:15):
interrupt myself and say, if somebody doesn't sign that Gabby Williams,
there's nobody with any common sense in the WNBA. Her shot.
First of all, she had about three threes. I didn't
think the US was going to come back and win
that game. I didn't the way France was playing defense
in the first half, and the way Asia Wilson was
(09:37):
missing layups, it just looked like destiny. It It felt like,
oh my gosh, France is going to pull a US
nineteen eighty miracle. Hockey game against US and win this.
But the girls never quit and we get the win
by one point, which really translated to about one inch
of toes from Gabby Williams being over the three point
(09:59):
line or it would have gone to overtime. It was
a to the final buzzer from the very beginning, just
a spectacular basketball game. And I'm not going to go
there because you know, I'm not into all of that.
But you know, between between all the talk in America
(10:22):
for the last three months about professional women's basketball and
then being one of the stars of the Olympic Game Show,
they are somewhat.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Of a role.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
You gotta give him that. So the Olympic Games are
now history. From Paris, we go to Milan for the
Winter Games and then in four years to Los Angeles.
And if you didn't watch the closing ceremony, you know
Tom Cruise comes into the music of Mission Impossible from
the time. First of all, he is fearless, that guy.
(10:52):
I'll do anything, fly fighter jets, jump out of planes.
But from the top of the stadium he comes down
and he gets the Olympic, receives the Olympic flag, puts
it on the back of his Harley and speeds out
of the arena, and then I think you get a
lot of pre cut stuff with him going into a plane,
the plane taking off, him air dropping, parachuting down into California,
(11:16):
putting the rings on the Hollywood Sign, and then eventually
we end up at the beach where you get live
performances from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Billie Eilish, I
guess the if you're wondering the oddness of Billie Eilish,
Red Hot Chili Peppers, Snoop Dog. These were all Los
Angeles bans to celebrate Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
So music on the beach and that was it.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
The Olympics are behind us, and we press on back
towards politics.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Wait a minute, can we just replay the games? Speaking
of politics, Oh, we got the big hack.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Somehow somebody hacked the vet of JD Vance from Team
Trump and they're promising a lot more foreign government interference
into this election process. Don't these foreign governments know we
know how to interfere better than anyone. Step aside and
let us do this.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Did you not see Tom Cruise?
Speaker 2 (12:12):
We're the professionals at reaching into our own jaws of
victory and grabbing defeat but yeah, that's that's a big story,
the promise of that, and then of course the escalation
again for hast thirty rockets, not a single one, not
(12:33):
a single casualty in Israel. There was there was no
problem for the Israeli defense forces to block that.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
The question would be, is.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
That a hasbalat and we're still waiting at an Iranian
response and if so, what do we think the Iranian
response is?
Speaker 1 (12:48):
What was Iron waiting for? And all of this.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Amounts to citing escalate, escalating regional tensions. The Pentagon says,
the US is strengthening its forces. I'm gonna do this
real quick, though, Jeffrey, before we do Top five Stories
of the Day, So I want to get into that
they're going to bring in. Originally it was to relieve
the Theodore Roosevelt. Now we're sending the Lincoln in the
(13:14):
Georgia to join it. And I'll explain what all those
particular assets bring with them as America begins to build
up and position itself for an attack on Israel, to
defend Israel from Iran. We have that and all your
Top five Stories a Day to get us started.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Next, this is Your Morning Show with Michael deltrona.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
First Things, first time for your not one, not two,
not three, but top five stories of the day, twenty
six minutes after the hour, Thanks for waking up with
your morning show, our numero ulos. Citing escalating regional tension,
the Pentagon says the United States is strengthening forces in
the Middle East. A Pentagon statement issued on Sunday says
(13:58):
Secretary of State Lloyd Austin is reiterating that the Biden
administration has a commitment to take every possible step to
defend Israel.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Well, I like the sound of that. It took me
a while to find some what The.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
USSA Braham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group and the USS Georgia
Guided Missile Submarine are all headed to the region now.
The statement doesn't specify how long before they arrive. The
Lincoln contains F thirty five sea fighters, was originally scheduled
to arrive towards the end of this month, which is
(14:33):
only two weeks away, but it looks as though things
are more urgent than two weeks, and that was intended
to replace the USS Theodore Roosevelt. However, it looks as
though the Lincoln and the Georgia will be joining the Roosevelt.
I try not to sing this early in the morning
and upset anybody, but I can't resist.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Coma kma, kma kama, coma comee lee. Here's Mark Mayfield
with our Road to the White House.
Speaker 6 (14:57):
Road to the White House. Twenty twenty four. Donald Trump's
running mate is defending the former president's comments questioning Kamala
Harris's racial identity. In an interview with the CNN's State
of the Union, Ohio Senator J. D. Vance accused Harris
of being a comeleon.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
I believe that Kamala Harris is whatever she says she is,
but I believe importantly that President Trump is right that
she's a chameleon. She pretends to be one thing in
front of one audience, she pretends to be something different
in front of another audience.
Speaker 6 (15:22):
Trump last month claimed Harris was bi racial, previously claimed
Indian heritage but then turned black. And President Biden explaining
why he decided to end his re election campaign in
an interview with the CBS Sunday morning, Biden said polls
showed the race between him and Donald Trump was neck
and neck. He added he was concerned it would negatively
impact other Democrats running in the House and Senate in November.
I'm Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Well, I was Italian American for fifty nine years, and
then just this morning, I switched to Boyd George.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Somebody's got to do that spoof song.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Right, Karma Chameleon, Yes, Kamala Kameili Easy. President Biden is
explaining why he decided to end his election campaign.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Rob Marty eight reports.
Speaker 7 (15:59):
In an interview with CBS Sunday Morning, Biden implied he
was indeed thrown under the bus by his own party
and oh those pesky down ballot races.
Speaker 8 (16:08):
But what happened was a number of my Democratic colleagues
and the House of Senates thought that I was going
to hurt them in the races, and I was concerned
if I stayed in the race.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
That would be the topic.
Speaker 7 (16:23):
Biden announced last month he would end his campaign amid
pressure from other Democrats following his poor debate performance against
Trump and amid concerns over his mental acuity. I'm Rob Martyr.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Oh, I'll admit it. I kind of miss him. I
kind of missed the.
Speaker 6 (16:38):
Daily so bad.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Oh Hi, it's Michael.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Your morning show can be heard live on great radio
stations across the country like Wylm and w DOV and
Wilmington and Dover, Delaware or wgst AM seven twenty the
Voice in Middle Georgia.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
We're going to need some blankets.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
News Radio six fifty k E NI Anchorage a LSS.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
We'd love to be a part of your morning routine.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Now enjoy the podcast, get yourself a cup of coffee,
and engage yourself.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
It is Monday, August the twelfth, twenty twenty four.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Citing escalating regional tensions, the Pentagon says the US is
strengthening its forces in the Middle East.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
The Summer Olympics are over. When it's all.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Said and done, the torch if you will, and the
flag has been passed from Paris to Los Angeles for
the Summer Games in four years. And as for Paris,
the US ends it with more medals than anyone else
in the world, tied with China for the gold and
Hama says it will not send delegates to talks with
Israel's negotiators scheduled for this Thursday.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
So a bit of a setback, all right. Election news.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Look, you have to remember that in twenty sixteen, Donald
Trump won the election over Hillary Clinton.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
We're talking by.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Handfuls of votes in swingest of swing pre he sinks,
let alone districts, let alone swing states, and what we
saw like in Michigan and Wisconsin where Trump took it
in twenty sixteen and then Biden in twenty took it
by the same handful of votes. So we know this
(18:16):
is going to be a close race. We know this
is going to come down to the swing states, and
we know there's a lot to play out, things within
the campaign's control and things outside of the campaign's control.
So every morning when we visit, that's kind of what
we're keeping our eye on, right what's going on. So
you don't want to overreact to a lot of these poles.
(18:38):
This particular latest poll that broke right before the weekend
was really at the pinnacle of despair, hopelessness.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
There should have been more.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Shock, well no, really less shock and more at how
they have hidden Joe Biden from you in the condition
he was in until the debate, and the very media
that like a posse wore him down and ran him
out of town where the very one's covering for him.
They kind of revealed their own scandal, certainly Kamala scandal,
(19:20):
Kamala days before was telling you, Oh, they completely gaslighted us.
He's not senile. He's running circles around in turns. So
they finally get rid of Joe. Kamala comes on board.
This begins right about when she's announcing, so all the
(19:40):
attention was on her, and she's about to announce, and
maybe there's a day or so after she announces Tim
Walls And here's how it looks. According to the polls
released by Siana College for The New York Times, Harris
tops Trump by four points fifty to forty six percent
among voters in Michigan, Pennsylvanian, Wasisconsin. Trump saw his polling
(20:03):
edge over Biden expand in the wake of late June's
disastrous debate performance. So you're just had an EBB. So
it's almost closer to where it was before the debate.
So her high. I can't prove this, but this would
(20:26):
be my exegete or observation. This is probably as high
as it gets for Kamala. Sooner or later, she's got
to do an interview. Sooner or later, she's got a debate.
They're about to have I think a potentially very distracted
convention in Chicago. And who knows what else is on
(20:48):
the horizon, And I don't have to tell you. Since
this survey was done, Tim Walls hasn't had such a
good time. The vetting of his resume has been aproat.
So if this is as good as it gets for
Kamala Harris her, as good as it gets is about
what Joe's good as it gets was, which means we
(21:10):
have a very close race.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Don't drive yourself crazy.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Is going to come down to Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Arizona,
unless there's some surprises elsewhere. The Georgia's, North Carolina's and
there'll be other ones that have some pretty big says.
But those are the swing states, the same as twenty twenty,
(21:36):
the same as twenty sixteen, and in Trump Hillary went
Trump's way at two hundred and Biden Trump, with a
lot of help from mail in votes and weaponizing COVID,
it went Biden's way. I think this looks a pretty
dead heat at this point. I want to break down
(21:59):
just a couple of because you know, all these numbers
that don't have Kennedy or Kennedy mostly but Jill Stein
in there, Cornell West, the Independent, they're not accurate.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
So what's the impact.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Well, according to the new surveys in multi candidate fields,
Harris edges Trump by two points. So Pennsylvania is still
very very close. Now it's showing with the multiple candidates
in Michigan and Wisconsin that Harris's lead goes to five
(22:37):
points in Michigan and six points in Wisconsin. I'd have
to really dig into the sample size of this sugar
high moment that it was taken. But that ain't gonna hold.
And I know that the media is completely ignoring.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
RF.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
But he's going to be on forty eight of the ballots,
going to be very present in Michigan, and he is
going to have more of effect in Michigan. I think
down the road, once we get past the Democratic Convention,
then the next biggest election type debate is over the debate.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
So we have Donald Trump.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Releasing on True Social Oh yeah, We're having three debates
and then he gets all specific. September fourth, we're going
to debate in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. That's gonna be a Fox
News debate. We have a second on September tenth in
Philadelphia that's going to be on ABC. And then there's
going to be a third on September twenty fifth in
Grand Rapids. That'll be on NBC. Now, because he throws
(23:39):
in the cities and the networks, it sounds like it's done,
So I really don't know if it is a done deal.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
And he just released.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
The done deal before Kamala and Walls, who have been
in hiding all weekend, probably strategically and on purpose, have
had a chance to announce it. But so far the
Harris camp has only confirmed the September tenth debate. But
will we have three and a vice presidential debate? Time
will tell. There is a This is kind of more
(24:13):
for the social media and the internet, But the big
story is Vice President Kamala Harrison Nevada Saturday promise to
eliminate taxes on tips, two months after President Trump made
the same promise. Now, if this is the beginning of
something she plans to do, never discuss her stances on
the issues when it comes to border, when it comes
(24:37):
to inflation, energy, Israel, and then every now and then,
just as a tactic, throw in something minor that she
agrees with with Donald Trump, and then they'll try to
tell you that they're the Joy campaign. The Tim Walls
who lied about carrying a right in military combat, who
(25:03):
lied about leaving the National Guard before he had to
be deployed, has basically said to everyone you know he
is completely for sanctuary cities, completely for pathway to citizenship.
(25:28):
He has gotten specific on something, but Kamala Harris not
a peep. You won't find a single thing about her
stance on any issue. In fact, I encourage you to
go to Harris for President. I saw somebody make a
comment on social media, so I went and.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Boy was he right now.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
This poor guy on social media was just trying to
find some information. He claims to be a libertarian, and
he's thinking about voting for Kamala Harris. But he can't
find anything about where she stands on the issues. And
I thought, well, that can't be. So I go to
Kamala Harris dot com. There's the Harris Walls logo at
the top. There's a big thing to donate twenty five dollars,
(26:09):
forty seven dollars, you get it, forties even give forty
seventh president just in case you didn't, one hundred dollars,
two hundred and fifty one thousand or other. Oh, front
and center is how to give to her. Then it
says meet Vice President Kamala Harris. And then it's paragraph
after picture after paragraph after picture, just this narrative bio
(26:31):
all about her. Not a single mention of a single
issue or a stance on a single issue or.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
A promise, nothing political about it whatsoever.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
So I thought, well, maybe that's just the drop page, right,
so I hit menu, Meet Kamala Harris. That's narrative, paragraph
after picture. Then they have one for Tim Walls, picture
after narrative. The take action is to give I'm coming
of events stores so you can go buy Harris Walls.
(27:06):
There's nothing the guy's right if he is genuinely trying
to have an interview process between he the hierer and
them the applicants and a presidential that you can't that
we do have one story about Walls of stance, like
(27:28):
on illegal immigration. But but it's so out of step
with the American people that they think they can just
hide it in plane sight.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
And that's what makes me believe that if.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
You're talking all day about her copying Trump on eliminating
taxes on tips, well you're playing their game for him.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
It's worse than that they're hiding in plain sight. And
now we've got the.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
Trump hacking, the promise from bad players on the world stage,
and they're going to do a lot more to disrupt
this election than just this, like we need any help.
And then my favorite story of the day, what's coming
at the convention? The headline in the Washington Post pro
(28:18):
Palestinian protesters about massive showing at the Democratic Convention. We'll
have more on that as your morning show continues.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Hi, They're up, Timy Stevens and my morning show is
your Morning Show with Michael.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
The Summer Olympics are in our rearview mirror.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
The US had more medals than any other country and
tied China with gold forty overall.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
Last night we said goodbye with Tom Cruise.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Falling from the roof, Snoop Dog, Billie Eilish, Redout, Jillie Pellett,
Pepper's celebrating on the beach in Los Angeles. Somewhere in Connecticut,
Aaron slept through the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
I'm guessing it's so true.
Speaker 9 (28:58):
No, I did. Actually, my husband texted me from downstairs
and was like, oh, Phoenix is playing, And Phoenix was
the first concert we went to together. So I was like, oh,
that's nice now, see, but yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
I have to be honest with you, I had never
heard of Phoenix, Jeffrey, you probably did, right, Well, No,
I didn't, Okay, because Jimmy Fallon seemed to know everything
about them.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
So what are they but what they sing in multiple languages?
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Right?
Speaker 9 (29:24):
I just know like that they had They're very millennial like,
and we were in our mid twenties and having a
blast at I remember it was Central Park summer and
we were just jamming out to Phoenix and forever it
will be like probably our shared favorite experience as a couple.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
So see, yes, I.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
Had a moment like that with the with Lyle Lovett
his large band, So I get that.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Yeah, they played that made sense.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Well, we couldn't figure out Jeffrey and I and I
guess i'd have to say, put your husband on the
air because you obviously know nothing about this. But I
don't think anybody in Paris after Tom Cruise drove off
on the motorcycle, I don't think they saw ont of
this other stuff that took place and was pre shot
in Los Angeles or the concert on the beach. So
some of the most embarrassing American stuff, hopefully we're the
(30:08):
only ones that saw it on NBC in America. Well,
here's a tough question for you. Should the President of
the United States get involved in decision making of the
Federal Reserve? Well, the answer is absolutely not. The bigger
questionation we even have a federal Reserve. But I digress.
Aaron Rail's here to take a look at. Well, Kamala
says no, and Trump says yes.
Speaker 6 (30:28):
I love how you said that.
Speaker 9 (30:29):
And the bigger question, and the right question is do
we want this, yes or no. It's not should it
be political? That is a bad idea, but you know,
like you said it perfectly. But Trump came out this
week and said, quote, I think that in my case,
I made a lot of money. I was very successful,
and I think I have a better instinct than in
(30:49):
many cases people that would be on the Federal Reserve
by the chairman of course. Okay, Yeah, Kamala came out
on Saturday and said I couldn't disagree more strongly. The
FED is an independent entity. As president, I would never
interfere with the decision making as a FED reminder, the
FED is in charge of monetary policy. The legislators we
elect are in charge of fiscal policy. They are two
(31:11):
different things. The FED has a dual mandate. They serve
it is a private institution that serves a public need,
the banking needs of the US government, and they try
and keep employment full, maximizable employment, and then inflation at
two percent.
Speaker 7 (31:24):
That's it.
Speaker 9 (31:25):
That's what they do. And the banking needs of the
US are different than regular places. We are the world's
reserve currency. We are a massive economic powerhouse, and basically
all other markets to revolve around what is generally set
by our FED for the most part.
Speaker 5 (31:40):
Other for the most part.
Speaker 9 (31:41):
I know policy walks. My contend with that, but the
idea being they are not a political body. They are
free from political pressure. Their board can make decisions based
solely on what is best for the US economy in
long term in theory.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
But the problem that Donald Trump isn't thinking about, and
he should be so well, none that has anything to
do with the executive branch of government. And that's why
if he wants to have a discussion, you have a
discussion about why it even exists, but you wouldn't want
to be involved over the FED because what if some
opposite ideology down the road or Joe Biden senile whoever
(32:19):
was really doing things for Joe Biden, just like you
wouldn't want them someday doing that.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
I mean it's a two edged sword.
Speaker 9 (32:25):
But yes, yes, you said it perfectly. And like I
don't know why politicians don't get you're like you only
have four years, eight years best case scenario, like this is,
this is not about that. And quick reminder, Jerome Pewell
is a Republican, so like this is not they. I've
always kind of taken solace in the fact that the FED,
you know, they're they're doing their best to keep the
(32:46):
wheels on while this were you know, careening this way
in that way, and they don't always get it perfectly right,
But like there hasn't been a cliff to go off justice.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
So how long before we have Joe Biden from the
Oval office? This guy because President's gonna take over the FED,
He's gonna.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
You know, I mean, it plays right into all that
nonsense as well, like Kamala Harris, for example, won't give
you a stance on any issue. Go to a website,
you can't find anything, and yet when he says something,
you know, like this, she'll jump on it and take
a stand. So that's a pretty good place to be, right,
everything that you stand for that America's against, like the
border and amnesty and pathway his citizenship and spending and
(33:27):
so on, or inflation or this or that or electric cars,
and then you stay pete, mum's the word on that.
And then when you get an open door like this,
you can talk about you know this and play him
out to be the boogeyman looking to take over the FED.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
I mean, I think you're right. I think it was
dumpling for Trump to do, but yeah, that.
Speaker 9 (33:45):
Was not and like listen, it's it's generally they have
done the free from voter approval, you know. And by
the way, the president can reappoint FED chair like so yes,
like you can, you can do that. And while they
might be influence by the public, they're not influenced to
get votes. And they're generally like the most sober people
(34:05):
in the room. You had Janet Yellen before, and like
it doesn't matter if you're like a hater. It's just
like this is not it's not a wild.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
Lady when when Eric comes, like, neither is your room pal.
Speaker 5 (34:16):
These are like some.
Speaker 9 (34:18):
Some austere people who are just policies you know they're
doing their best.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
Yeah, we're all in this together. This is your Morning
