ask a question, make a statement, take your place as
(00:51):
the star of the show. You'll find that link on
our new website, Your Morning Show Online dot com. And
that's a whole other promo. Isn't it a one stop
shop for all things your morning show? All Right, it's
seven minutes after the hour and welcome to Monday, August
the eighteenth. It's all about the Zelensky visit to the
White House and bringing all of his European friends with
(01:11):
him from Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Finland, as Donald
Trump continues to try to bring peace between Russia and Ukraine.
Also the latest on Hurricane Aaron pounding Puerto Rico, heading
up the eastern seaboard, where they expect life threatening surf
and rip currents in the coming days. And the biggest
(01:33):
powerball jackpot of the year continues to grow no match
this weekend. It's up to six hundred and five million dollars.
All right, Well, you had this past weekend the DC
Police supplemented by officers from the federal government. Now National
Guard troops from as far away as South Carolina and
Ohio have been activated to patrol the streets in our
nation's capital. All of this comes as there are reports
(01:56):
that the Metropolitan Police Department may have changed its crimes
tats just a few weeks ago. National correspondent for your
morning show, Roy O'Neil, is here. We covered that on Thursday,
I think or Wednesday of last week. But good morning,
we're giving the latest done this. Yeah, good morning.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
So, as you said, this weekend, we've got three more
states contributing to the policing effort in Washington, d C.
By sending more of their National Guard troops into the
district this weekend. A lot of high profile activity from
the National Guard unclear yet. We just haven't gotten numbers
yet to see how that's actually impacted things on the
(02:32):
ground there, but certainly a very high profile series of
events by the National Guard going to places like Union
Station in the National Mall, clearly showing off that they
mean business while they're in the district. And as you said,
there was that police officer, a commander who was suspended
for allegedly falsifying some of the criminal arrest information, essentially
(02:57):
trying to downplay maybe a shooting was turned into a
simple assault, that kind of thing to make his district
look better.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Yeah. So one of the early narratives was if you're
going to take over for a municipal police department, I mean,
at least do it when crime is up, I mean
crime is down, you know. And of course then the
initial response was, well, yeah, but murders are up, but
there's nothing more final than murder. And then we find out,
you know, back in I want to say, July, I
(03:27):
think the story broke that this guy was falsifying information.
So there's some question as to whether or not crime
was it mid May maye okay, but yeah, so I mean,
you know, trusting the numbers, you know, I think people
feel it. I know there were some honest reporters on
television saying listen, I got mugged right outside the studio.
So I don't think anybody should be anti crime. The
(03:49):
question is how did it come to this that such
federal assistants became necessary in order to carry out a
municipal priority like public safety?
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Right?
Speaker 3 (03:59):
And look, you know, numbers can always be massaged and manipulated,
so it's always tough to tell. We do know that
murders are down since twenty twenty three, but again, how
there orether classic crimes are classified, and how that may
change some of the impressions we're getting. But a lot
of DC riseidents don't feel safe, and that's just as
important as a factor here.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
All right, So we're always going to be back in
the third hour for our other saga as the world turns,
and that is the Texas legislators returning to Texas to
do inevitably what they'll have to do. After all, redistarching
is a constitutional necessity. Jerry Mandering or the abuse of
that is something that both sides do. But that was
(04:40):
the stunt, and the stunt appears to be over Royal.
Have more coming up. I thought this was a very
important piece of research. I think it is a hopefully
it's not a journey of discovery. All right, So I
think all of you know this happens in college. I
(05:00):
don't think you realized it was this bad, or to
quote Rory, that it's felt this profoundly. Further, I would
contend this is not just a university problem. I know
my third child graduated high school last year and has
(05:21):
started at university this year. So I just went through this,
and I can tell you all three of my children
throughout late elementary, certainly junior high, in high school felt
the same. What would be professionally called a minefield of
ideological conformity. So the headline is cost of conformity. Eighty
(05:48):
eight percent of students feel compelled to adopt a liberal
left facade. They're not being indoctrinated, they're not being socialized,
They're being forced to take on a liberal left facade
in order to function with teachers and professors and get
out successfully. So we all know. We live in a
(06:12):
hyper polarized academic landscape, and college students face an unspoken ultimatum.
You conform or you're cast out. You conform or you
get less than grades. New research by Forrest Rahm and
(06:33):
Kevin Waldman, conducted between twenty twenty three and twenty twenty
five at Northwestern University and the University of Michigan, reveals
a chilling reality. Students are hiding their true beliefs, and
they're doing so to navigate the social and academic minefield
of ideological conformity. Based on confidential interviews, this is what's
(06:56):
you know? We always talk about what's the problem in
polling today? Well, one, we don't have landlines and we
don't answer our cell phone unless we see the face
and name we know, so it's hard to get people.
If you did get people, would they think about this
navigate the social minefield of ideological conformity in taking the poll?
(07:23):
But these were done confidentially in interviews with fourteen hundred
and fifty two undergraduates, and the study uncovers a pervasive
culture of self censorship driven by the fear of social ostracism.
Or academic penalty. As the researcher starkly noted, we're not
(07:46):
studying politics, we're studying development. Yet what they found is
a generation not maturing but merely managing. When have you
ever pretended to hold a more progressive view than you
truly endorse to succeed socially or academically? The answer was
(08:10):
eighty eight percent. Yes. I should just repeat this like
the Beatles repeated number nine, number nine, number eighty eight
percent walking around at university having to pretend to have
(08:33):
a progressive view an aesthetical to what they really believe
to fit in socially or to academically succeed. This is
so far from education. This is so far from tolerance,
This is so far from inclusiveness, This is so far
from critical thinking. And this isn't just pure pressure. It's
(09:00):
a systemic demand for performative morality. And may I just
interrupt this conversation to say and by design, these students
were not cynical, but adaptive. Romen Waldman explained, in a
campus environment where grades, leadership, and peers belonging often hinge
(09:24):
on fluency and performance morality, young adults quickly learn to
rehearse what is safe. The result is not conviction but compliance.
You didn't change them, And the minute they get their
grade or the minute they graduate, they're going to go
back to their values and their rules for those values
their beliefs. But this is what they do to get along. Now,
(09:47):
the interesting question would be should such a confidential type research,
whether it's Michigan or Northwestern or not, be done in
the corporate world. In fact, this may be the only
thing that they're doing K through twelve and at the
university level to prepare people for an adversarial workforce. Teaching
(10:11):
them how to put on a mask, not changing hearts,
not changing minds, not changing convictions, but just getting your
compliance would be an interesting study, wouldn't it. The result
is not conviction but compliance, and beneath that compliance, something
(10:35):
vital is lost, and this loss has profound, the researcher said,
and they agreed. Ideological conformity stifles authenticity, a quality once
considered a psychological good, Now it's a social liability. As
the far left tries to re engineer the future. Students,
(11:03):
they say, learn to compartmentalize publicly, they conform privately. They question,
often in isolation, often at the table with me, now,
what does this look like within the classroom? According to research,
seventy eight percent self censor on gender identity, seventy seven
(11:27):
percent on politics. These classrooms aren't as blue as their
faculty lounge is not as woke as their teachers. Third
in the list at sixty eight percent was family values. Alarmingly,
(11:50):
eighty percent admit to submitting class work that misrepresents their
beliefs to align with the professor's expectation in order to
get the gray. I personally wouldn't do it. If that
(12:13):
were the case, I would have done it. The previous
company I worked for was constantly trying to determine what
I said, how I said it. This can be a
learned compromise that carries out in life. In other words,
(12:33):
you think the results of this research is how they
haven't succeeded in changing the hearts and minds, that they're
just performing it. But will they go on to do
the same once they graduate? And if that's the case,
that's as good as a victory for the left. But
(12:54):
you can't stop once they're in the ballot box. Unfortunately,
this fragmentation doesn't end of the classroom doors. Some seventy
three percent of respondents confessed they don't even trust having
conversations about these values with close friends. Now you start
getting into intimacy and friendship and other things that make
us mentally healthy. How was it to be a kid today?
You don't know, like invasion of the body snatchers. If
(13:17):
somebody's going to point it you and go ah. The
authors describe this as identity regulation at scale, and it's
being institutionalized. Gender ideology emerges as a flashboint despite the
cultural push for non binary frameworks. Eighty seven percent of
students identify as exclusively heterosexual and support a binary model
(13:43):
of gender. Only seven percent embrace gender as a spectrum.
Seventy seven percent disagree with prioritizing gender identity over biological sex,
especially in areas like sports or health care. I have
(14:06):
made the statement on the air just observing my children's generation,
and I'm telling you, gender and COVID is where they
went too far and they lost an entire generation. In
other words, I hope these same two researchers from Northwestern
and from Michigan come back again and do the exact
(14:29):
same research and trend it four years from now, because
then you're going to get very close to ninety eight percent,
not eighty eight percent. This is where the left went
too far, and this study even shows it. And there
(14:52):
are a lot that will talk a good game about
critical thinking, they just don't want it in practice. But
this is not just universities. It's case through twelve education
has becomeing doctrination and socialization, and they went too far,
especially with COVID and gender that's about to all unravel. Hey,
what if you could delay your next two mortgage payments.
Wouldn't that be great? Even if it's two thousand a month,
(15:13):
they're four thousand a month. That's a lot of money
in your pocket, a little breathing room, as I like
to say, Well, it's possible. When you call American financing today,
you're feeling stretched by everyday expenses and we all are groceries,
gas bills piling up. You're not alone, and most Americans
are putting these expenses on credit cards. Well, that's where
(15:33):
the real suffocation comes in. High interest credit card debt
bearing you and you feel like there's no way out.
But there is. Call American financing today before you get
to the point where you can't make those payments. That's
real problems. There's salary based mortgage consultants, no high pressure,
no incentive. They're there to help home owners just like
you restructure your loans and consolidate your debt. There are
(15:56):
no upfront freeze, up upfront fees, and our average customers
are saving eight hundred or more a month. It's like
getting a ten thousand dollars raise. It's fast, it's simple.
You have everything to save and nothing to lose. Aw
some breathing room. Call today American Financing eight six six

forward slash Michael. This is your morning show with Michael
del Chrono. He said in the past that his constitution
doesn't permit giving up land. Does his constitutions permit him
being a forever dictator. I think our talkback question of
(16:42):
today is going to be is Big John talking about
Putin or Zaliitski? Because I really don't know. I guessed Putin.
I think it's Putin. He's talking about red things. Is Zalinski?
Don't forget to don't forget to use the talkback button
if you're listening on the iHeart Apple little microphone. President
will professionally count you down three to two one. We
(17:04):
don't wait on hold anymore and waste your time and
talk radio, your morning show. Take your place in an
instant by pressing that button. And do you think Big
John's talking about Zelensky.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
There was a proportion of that talk back that was
transcribed that was missing in the audio.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
But he is talking about Yeah, thank he's talking about Putin,
Zelenski or Putin which was talking about Zelensky? Oh he was, yes, Okay, Well,
Zelensky is meeting with the President today and European leaders
are coming along with him Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Finland. Meanwhile,
the US State Department is going to stop approving visitor
visas from the Gaza. Powerball is up to six hundred
(17:43):
and five million. A Hurricane Aaron could bring life threatening
surf and rip currents to the Eastern Seaboard in the
coming days. And somehow the Buffalo Bill's lost last night
to the Bears thirty eight to nothing. Pouch. This is
Steve of the Rest, a refugee from the People's Republic
of Minnesota, and my morning show is your morning show
(18:07):
with Michael del jornal Hi. It's Michael. Your Morning show
can be heard live on great radio stations across the
country like wilm and w DOV and Wilmington and Dover,
Delaware or wgst AM seven twenty the voice in Middle Georgia.
(18:27):
And we're going to need some blankets. News Radio six
fifty k NI, Anchorage, Alaska. We'd love to be a
part of your morning routine. Now enjoy the podcast, dim Michael.
Jeffrey's got control of the sounds red, keeping an eye
on the content, and you all busy on the talkback
line at that talkback button. We'll get to your calls
here in a second. US State Department is stopping approvals
(18:49):
of visas coming from the Gaza. Zelensky's headed to the
White House and a lot of European leaders will join
him from Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Finland as President
Trump continues to try to lead first to a ceasefire,
ultimately to peace between Russia and Ukraine. And the biggest
powerball jackpod of the year. Not ever, shockingly, I find
(19:12):
out we've had a powerball at two billion. But now
this one goes to six hundred and five million with
no winter on Saturday, and we had a talkback. I
don't know if we're going to get this in before
John Decker or after. Okay, so this is what my
news feed says. Hurricane Aaron could bring life threatening surf
and rip currents to the eastern seaboard. I always thought
(19:35):
it was rip tides as well, and so does our lister,
Good morning, Michael.
Speaker 5 (19:40):
Rip currents are not currents. They're ripped tides. They're produced
randomly and all around. Currents are there all the time.
So that's a biso where it's a bad use of
the language. And Zelinsky has been in charge ever since
the war started, in before if there's not been an
election in the holes, so Zelinsky's also a dictator.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Look at the facts that's going on. That's why we said,
you know, Big John needed to specify. We didn't know
if he was talking about right, putin or Zelensky. All Right,
what a historic visit John Decker got to have in Alaska.
That's one he'll tell his grandkids about someday. Back to
the Oval office. This morning is Zelensky's arriving and leaders
(20:26):
from Europe as the saga continues, I guess John, first
things first, what was it like to be in Alaska
for such a historic summit.
Speaker 6 (20:35):
Well, it was historic, a lot of anticipation as both
President Trump and President Putin arrived, A lot of anticipation, Michael.
At the start of that press conference, no questions asked.
Disappointing about that. Disappointing also that there was no deal
reach to just in terms of a ceasefire, and that's
what the President had been seeking prior to his meeting
(20:56):
with President Putin. So yeah, a long trip that the
President made, a lung ship I made as well. I've
made it back to Washington, DC, and I'll be in
the Oval Office today when the President meets with President
Zelenski and those other European leaders.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Yeah. Marco Rubio was on the tour this weekend, Face
the Nation, Meet the Press this week with ABC, and
all the hosts were very antagonistic. Certainly, the president wanted
a ceasefire, didn't get it, But as Marco Rubio stated,
there was enough progress to continue moving forward. After all,
what's the alternative more dying and more sanctions and punishment.
(21:32):
But Steve Whitcoff, he really comes back with I think
a pretty big accomplishment. If Putin is going to allow
the US to provide security guarantees, that's no small factor
in this, and the President on social media making it clear,
so let's go. Only needs to do two things, and
we got ourselves a ceasefire in a peace process. One
is crimea which if you don't like C. Twenty fourteen,
(21:55):
and then the other is just not being a part
of NATO. If that's all there is, that's a deal
he should take. Well.
Speaker 6 (22:05):
Putin is asking for land that he doesn't already that
he hasn't already conquered. That's a fact, and why should
Putin get land he hasn't conquered. He wants an easy
way out. It's taking him three plus years and he's
barely gained any ground. He's relied on North Korea, he's
relied on Iran.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
He's relied on China.
Speaker 6 (22:25):
He can't fight this battle for himself, and now he
wants to gain some ground at the negotiating table. That's
the reason why these European leaders have come to Washington,
because that's not a fair deal, that's not a good
makes some concessions one way or another, but that hasn't
happened just yet on the part of Putin.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
But yes, it's what I'm getting at is and it's
speculative based on what the president put on truth social
But if the president feels confident that he can back
it back to where it was really prior to the invasion,
Ukraine cannot be a part of NATO and an assurance
of that, the US has the ability to provide security guarantees.
And all you have to do is keep Crimeri crime
(23:06):
Eric crime. Say it for me now that I'm bring
dead crime it back in the into the Russian category.
If that's something they could settle on, that would be
a deal. If he wants more land than that, then
obviously that's a deal breaker.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
Yeah. Also, why should Putin determine who's a part of
the NATO defense a lines wat should some other country determine,
you know, to talk to and dictate what the other
thirty two members of NATO may want. I'm not saying
that all thirty two members are all on board having
Ukraine as a member down the road, but you know,
putin the dictator telling NATO what to do, that's a last.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
Well, somebody's got to negotiate a ceasefire and an ultimate
piece and a lasting piece, and there's going to have
to be concessions on both sides. I mean we could,
right yeah, So I mean, you know, somebody's have to
give something. Do you sense, because this was what the
left media was trying to narrativize this weekend, that these
(24:02):
leaders from Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Finland are here
just to make sure the President doesn't bully Zelensky into
some kind of a bad deal. And Marko Ruby is saying, no,
we invited them. They've been in the process all along,
which to you sense, you're right there.
Speaker 6 (24:20):
Well, look, I don't know. I don't know the conversations
that occurred between President Trump and these European leaders. I
think that more than anything else, they want to be
a part of this process. They because it impacts them
in a very real way. So I can't speculate in
terms of why or how the invitation was extended. But
(24:40):
they're going to be here, that's the bottom line, and
so is President Zelenski, and we'll see what comes.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Out of it.
Speaker 6 (24:46):
You mentioned Mark Rubia, the Secretary of State, and I
watched many of those interviews that he did on those
Sunday morning shows and tell me if you disagree with me,
Mark Michael, I don't think that he sounds optimist, sick
about getting to a deal anytime in the near future.
Did you get that sense, Michael, Well.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
I think he thinks it's a very difficult negotiation, one
that has to be tried. I didn't sense either way.
I liked when he got to the point and I
can't remember if I think it was with Kristin Walker
where he just reminded her, Look, this isn't our war.
This is Ukraine's war, Russia's war. We're doing all we
(25:27):
can and we should be getting credit for doing all
we can to try to bring a ceasefire in peace,
but we can't assure it, and if it doesn't happen,
it's not our failure and it's not our war. I
think that's the part that I think is lost in
all this. But is there if there were a way
to negotiate, And according to Whitkoff, we've got that assurance
from Putin and we already kind of weaseled our way
there with the mineral rights because we'll be there to
(25:49):
protect them now. But if Putin's willing to concede and
allow the US and Europe to have security guarantees and
security forces and give them just crimea nothing more, you know,
and not being NATO. That to me is a pretty
good deal. Now. I don't know how that's going to
fair out with the European leaders, with Putin, or with
(26:09):
the courtroom of public opinion, but that would perceive to
be a good deal. Now. Whether or not everybody can
agree on one time will tell. And ultimately the enemy
always has to say, right, John, I mean, how could
work for Rubio or anyone else know what the enemy
is going to do if Putin's willing to fight. I
don't see a way for Putin to win anything more
(26:30):
than yeah. So, I mean, I don't even know why
he would want to continue to throw more lives at this.
But I think we should all be rooting for peace.
Why because wars rarely end where they begin and with
the same players they begin with. That's always a threat
to the world. And I do think this president really
does care about the lives that are being lost. I
(26:52):
really believe that.
Speaker 6 (26:54):
Oh, I agree, there's no doubt about it. And you
know that's if that wasn't the case, then he wouldn't
be so invested in having this meeting today at the
White House, having various means traveling to Alaska. You're one
hundred percent.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
Right about that. So you know, it's as the.
Speaker 6 (27:08):
President says, I always say this, because it's true, it
takes two to tango. And you know, even if you
have one of the parties that may be on board
a proposal being put forward by the President, in this
case Ukraine, you know, they were all on board the
thirty day Seas Fire proposal, the other party, Russia, is
not on board, and that's really frustrating for the President.
(27:29):
And I think it's extremely frustrating for the President, you know,
after having that three hour plus long meeting with President
Putin on Friday in Alaska, and then you know, coming
back and having this very important meeting today in the
Oval Office and also an extended meeting in the East Room.
I'll be at both of those meetings, Michael, and I
look forward to talking to you tomorrow about that, and
(27:50):
hopefully I have an opportunity to ask the President and
some of those leaders and questions during the course of
those meetings.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
White House correspondent John Decker from your Morning show, Love
You appreciate you. We'll talk again to my I don't
know what a good day today is. I guess you
know you're talking about takes two to tango. Well you
started adding Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Finland, the American media.
That's too many dance partners. But I think a good
day today would be to get everybody on the same page,
(28:19):
President Trump from a neutral position, and then Zelenski and
the European leaders all in the same page and comfortable
with a second meeting planned. That's a good day today. Now.
US Special Envoy Steve Whitcoff says we had a pretty
good day in Alaska because President Trump and Vladimir Putin
agreed to robust security guarantees for Ukraine. That was a
(28:43):
major thing Zolensky was holding out for. Mark Mayfield has more.
Speaker 7 (28:47):
Widgoff talked about the agreement in an interview with CNN's
State of the Union.
Speaker 8 (28:51):
We got to an agreement that the United States and
other European nations could effectively or offer Article five like
language to cover a security guarantee.
Speaker 7 (29:06):
Witcom, who sent in on Trump's meeting with Putin on Friday,
said it was the first time we had ever heard
the Russians agree to such a provision.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
He said.
Speaker 7 (29:13):
Other riemas also included a legislative enshointment by Russia to
not go into any other territory when the peace deal
is codified. I'm Mark Neyfield.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
More Republican led states are sending National Guard troops to
our nation's capital.
Speaker 9 (29:26):
The governors of Ohio and South Carolina are sending a
combined three hundred and fifty soldiers to Washington. This comes
after West Virginia's governor announced he was sending over three
hundred troops to DC. President Trump claims Washington is experiencing
a crime and homelessness emergency. I'm Lisa Carton.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
The State Department is stopping approvals of visitor visas from
people from the Gaza. Scott Carr reports from Washington.
Speaker 10 (29:50):
State Department officials said Saturday it was conducting a full
and thorough review of the visa process, specifically for people
seeking temporary medical visas. The department has allowed a small
number of cousins to travel to the US for medical
attention since the start of the Israel Hamas War in
October of twenty twenty three. The announcement came just one
(30:10):
day after pro Trump activist Laura Lumer criticized the visa
program in a post on X I'm Scott Carr in Washington.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Although it's not expected to make landfall in the United States,
Hurricane Aaron will bring unsettled waters to the shores of
America this week.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
The warning comes after two swimmers died along the Jersey
Shore just last week. The massive hurricane is expected to
stay well offshore, but its winds will bring dangerous surf
to the Jersey Shore and Long Island. Lifeguards are reminding
swimmers to swim parallel to the shore if they get
stuck in a rip current, and to only swim when
lifeguards are on duty. Jonathan o'haller and NBC News Radio,
(30:49):
New York.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
I've never said this on the air before, but I
owe my life to a Men's Health magazine article on
that Andrew and I were I think we were in
the Bahamas. Yeah, sandals. We were on one of those
little pedal things and we were just busy talking. Next
thing we know, we look back and short looked like
a pinpoint. I'm like, what happened? And we were in
(31:11):
a riptide. So I remembered reading that Men's health, and
I said, paddle hard. We got to go parallel, and
I mean we were paddling hard. It took a while,
but we finally got out of it and made the
long journey back home. I don't stay out of the water. Yeah,
I'm getting that way, the older I get. The actor
who played an iconic villain on the big screen has
passed away.
Speaker 11 (31:29):
English actor Terrence Stamp has died at the age of
eighty seven.
Speaker 9 (31:33):
I see you are practiced in worshiping things that fly, good.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Rise before Zod.
Speaker 11 (31:42):
Stamp was known for his role as General Zod in
the Superman films. Stamp's family confirmed the news in a
statement to Reuters, saying in part that he leaves behind
an extraordinary body of work, both as an actor and
as a writer that will continue to touch and inspire
people for years to come. No cause of death was
I'm Rob Bartier. Yeah, my wife of course, said Zod.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Valkyrie is what I think is one of the most
terrific movies ever made. It may have been one of
Tom Cruise's best. He was in Valkyrie. He was also
in Wall Street. People forget he was opposite, you know,
competitor of the role played by Michael Douglas, and he
(32:25):
was in Young Guns as well. If you google him
and you see his face, you go, oh him, Yeah,
that's Terence Damp. Biggest powerball jackpot of the year got
even bigger this weekend.
Speaker 12 (32:37):
Nobody matched all six numbers in Saturday nights drawing of
the nationwide lottery, so that five hundred and sixty five
million dollars jackpot rolls over and will be worth at
least six hundred and five million dollars in tonight's drawing.
That for surpasses the five hundred and twenty six million
dollar powerball jackpot that was one last March by a
ticket buyer in California. In tonight's drawing, if the cash
option is taken and there's a winner, for will walk
(33:00):
away with at least two hundred and seventy three million.
I'm Chammy Trhio.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
All right, We've gone through the box score and we
can tell you not a single Buffalo Bill starter was
in that game last night. But the Bills lost thirty
eight to nothing to the Chapaul Cobars, Lions lost twenty
four to seventeen to the Fins. Titans won twenty three
to twenty over the Falcons. Browns beat the Eagles twenty
two to thirteen. Bucks won seventeen to fourteen over the Steelers.
(33:25):
Cardinals fell twenty seven to seven to the Broncos, Rams
twenty three to twenty two over the Chargers, and the
forty nine Ers byfield goal. Over there, eh Ratus twenty
two to nineteen. And that's NFL preseason Week two of
your morning show Interest in Baseball. Reds three two over
the Brewers. Snapping, was that a thirteen or fourteen game
winning streak for the Brewers? Good job, Reds. Cardinals swept
(33:47):
by the Yankees, losing eight to four. Yesterday, Guardians five
to four over the Braves, Tigers fell eight four to
the Twins. D Backs lost six to four to the Rockies,
Angels over the As five to four, Race, got shut
out by the Giants six to nothing, and the Dodgers
beat the Padres four three birthdays today, snl alum Andy
Samberg forty seven years old, the Sundance Kid himself, the
great Robert Redford eighty nine years old, and one of
(34:09):
my favorite actors, Edward Norton is fifty six. If it's
your birthday, Happy birthday. We're so glad you were born,
and thanks for making your morning show a part of
our of your big day. Hey, if you heard of karaaluma,

Today it's your Morning show with Michael del Chno and
have your morning show without your voice. Here's Austin and
(35:57):
Saint Louis. Good morning, Michael.
Speaker 13 (36:00):
Not that I'm taking the Russian side. What everyone acts
like this was just out of the blue, But no
one wants to talk about how many times NATO violated
their treaties with Russia about not adding more countries and
not moving closer to Russia.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Yeah, that's why it's going to be a sticking point.
There's going to be no concession there that Ukraine cannot
be in NATO. Bob's in Mississippi. I heard that little
fellow on there talk about Putin doing the bullying.
Speaker 4 (36:29):
Well, when you're the number two nuclear you do a
little bullying just like the number one.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
That's why I loved when Rubio said they're already on
the world stage. They're a superpower. They're the ones in
a war Wesley's in Nashville.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
Michael, you have to understand that when it comes from
Russian history, from the Tsars to the Soviet leaders to
this clown now, they don't care how many people die
as long as they stay in power.
Speaker 1 (36:55):
Yeah. Well, listen, there's no question that Vladimir Putin wants
to put back together the Russian Empire map. He's a
long way from that, and he's ready to take an
offer him and everything should be done to show him
the way. We're all in this together. This is your

that's a whole other promo. Isn't it a one stop
shop for all things your morning show? All Right, it's
seven minutes after the hour and welcome to Monday, August
the eighteenth. It's all about the Zelensky visit to the
White House and bringing all of his European friends with
(01:11):
him from Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Finland, as Donald
Trump continues to try to bring peace between Russia and Ukraine.
Also the latest on Hurricane Aaron pounding Puerto Rico, heading
up the eastern seaboard, where they expect life threatening surf
and rip currents in the coming days. And the biggest
(01:33):
powerball jackpot of the year continues to grow no match
this weekend. It's up to six hundred and five million dollars.
All right, Well, you had this past weekend the DC
Police supplemented by officers from the federal government. Now National
Guard troops from as far away as South Carolina and
Ohio have been activated to patrol the streets in our
nation's capital. All of this comes as there are reports
(01:56):
that the Metropolitan Police Department may have changed its crimes
tats just a few weeks ago. National correspondent for your
morning show, Roy O'Neil, is here. We covered that on Thursday,
I think or Wednesday of last week. But good morning,
we're giving the latest done this. Yeah, good morning.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
So, as you said, this weekend, we've got three more
states contributing to the policing effort in Washington, d C.
By sending more of their National Guard troops into the
district this weekend. A lot of high profile activity from
the National Guard unclear yet. We just haven't gotten numbers
yet to see how that's actually impacted things on the
(02:32):
ground there, but certainly a very high profile series of
events by the National Guard going to places like Union
Station in the National Mall, clearly showing off that they
mean business while they're in the district. And as you said,
there was that police officer, a commander who was suspended
for allegedly falsifying some of the criminal arrest information, essentially
(02:57):
trying to downplay maybe a shooting was turned into a
simple assault, that kind of thing to make his district
look better.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Yeah. So one of the early narratives was if you're
going to take over for a municipal police department, I mean,
at least do it when crime is up, I mean
crime is down, you know. And of course then the
initial response was, well, yeah, but murders are up, but
there's nothing more final than murder. And then we find out,
you know, back in I want to say, July, I
(03:27):
think the story broke that this guy was falsifying information.
So there's some question as to whether or not crime
was it mid May maye okay, but yeah, so I mean,
you know, trusting the numbers, you know, I think people
feel it. I know there were some honest reporters on
television saying listen, I got mugged right outside the studio.
So I don't think anybody should be anti crime. The
(03:49):
question is how did it come to this that such
federal assistants became necessary in order to carry out a
municipal priority like public safety?
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Right?
Speaker 3 (03:59):
And look, you know, numbers can always be massaged and manipulated,
so it's always tough to tell. We do know that
murders are down since twenty twenty three, but again, how
there orether classic crimes are classified, and how that may
change some of the impressions we're getting. But a lot
of DC riseidents don't feel safe, and that's just as
important as a factor here.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
All right, So we're always going to be back in
the third hour for our other saga as the world turns,
and that is the Texas legislators returning to Texas to
do inevitably what they'll have to do. After all, redistarching
is a constitutional necessity. Jerry Mandering or the abuse of
that is something that both sides do. But that was
(04:40):
the stunt, and the stunt appears to be over Royal.
Have more coming up. I thought this was a very
important piece of research. I think it is a hopefully
it's not a journey of discovery. All right, So I
think all of you know this happens in college. I
(05:00):
don't think you realized it was this bad, or to
quote Rory, that it's felt this profoundly. Further, I would
contend this is not just a university problem. I know
my third child graduated high school last year and has
(05:21):
started at university this year. So I just went through this,
and I can tell you all three of my children
throughout late elementary, certainly junior high, in high school felt
the same. What would be professionally called a minefield of
ideological conformity. So the headline is cost of conformity. Eighty
(05:48):
eight percent of students feel compelled to adopt a liberal
left facade. They're not being indoctrinated, they're not being socialized,
They're being forced to take on a liberal left facade
in order to function with teachers and professors and get
out successfully. So we all know. We live in a
(06:12):
hyper polarized academic landscape, and college students face an unspoken ultimatum.
You conform or you're cast out. You conform or you
get less than grades. New research by Forrest Rahm and
(06:33):
Kevin Waldman, conducted between twenty twenty three and twenty twenty
five at Northwestern University and the University of Michigan, reveals
a chilling reality. Students are hiding their true beliefs, and
they're doing so to navigate the social and academic minefield
of ideological conformity. Based on confidential interviews, this is what's
(06:56):
you know? We always talk about what's the problem in
polling today? Well, one, we don't have landlines and we
don't answer our cell phone unless we see the face
and name we know, so it's hard to get people.
If you did get people, would they think about this
navigate the social minefield of ideological conformity in taking the poll?
(07:23):
But these were done confidentially in interviews with fourteen hundred
and fifty two undergraduates, and the study uncovers a pervasive
culture of self censorship driven by the fear of social ostracism.
Or academic penalty. As the researcher starkly noted, we're not
(07:46):
studying politics, we're studying development. Yet what they found is
a generation not maturing but merely managing. When have you
ever pretended to hold a more progressive view than you
truly endorse to succeed socially or academically? The answer was
(08:10):
eighty eight percent. Yes. I should just repeat this like
the Beatles repeated number nine, number nine, number eighty eight
percent walking around at university having to pretend to have
(08:33):
a progressive view an aesthetical to what they really believe
to fit in socially or to academically succeed. This is
so far from education. This is so far from tolerance,
This is so far from inclusiveness, This is so far
from critical thinking. And this isn't just pure pressure. It's
(09:00):
a systemic demand for performative morality. And may I just
interrupt this conversation to say and by design, these students
were not cynical, but adaptive. Romen Waldman explained, in a
campus environment where grades, leadership, and peers belonging often hinge
(09:24):
on fluency and performance morality, young adults quickly learn to
rehearse what is safe. The result is not conviction but compliance.
You didn't change them, And the minute they get their
grade or the minute they graduate, they're going to go
back to their values and their rules for those values
their beliefs. But this is what they do to get along. Now,
(09:47):
the interesting question would be should such a confidential type research,
whether it's Michigan or Northwestern or not, be done in
the corporate world. In fact, this may be the only
thing that they're doing K through twelve and at the
university level to prepare people for an adversarial workforce. Teaching
(10:11):
them how to put on a mask, not changing hearts,
not changing minds, not changing convictions, but just getting your
compliance would be an interesting study, wouldn't it. The result
is not conviction but compliance, and beneath that compliance, something
(10:35):
vital is lost, and this loss has profound, the researcher said,
and they agreed. Ideological conformity stifles authenticity, a quality once
considered a psychological good, Now it's a social liability. As
the far left tries to re engineer the future. Students,
(11:03):
they say, learn to compartmentalize publicly, they conform privately. They question,
often in isolation, often at the table with me, now,
what does this look like within the classroom? According to research,
seventy eight percent self censor on gender identity, seventy seven
(11:27):
percent on politics. These classrooms aren't as blue as their
faculty lounge is not as woke as their teachers. Third
in the list at sixty eight percent was family values. Alarmingly,
(11:50):
eighty percent admit to submitting class work that misrepresents their
beliefs to align with the professor's expectation in order to
get the gray. I personally wouldn't do it. If that
(12:13):
were the case, I would have done it. The previous
company I worked for was constantly trying to determine what
I said, how I said it. This can be a
learned compromise that carries out in life. In other words,
(12:33):
you think the results of this research is how they
haven't succeeded in changing the hearts and minds, that they're
just performing it. But will they go on to do
the same once they graduate? And if that's the case,
that's as good as a victory for the left. But
(12:54):
you can't stop once they're in the ballot box. Unfortunately,
this fragmentation doesn't end of the classroom doors. Some seventy
three percent of respondents confessed they don't even trust having
conversations about these values with close friends. Now you start
getting into intimacy and friendship and other things that make
us mentally healthy. How was it to be a kid today?
You don't know, like invasion of the body snatchers. If
(13:17):
somebody's going to point it you and go ah. The
authors describe this as identity regulation at scale, and it's
being institutionalized. Gender ideology emerges as a flashboint despite the
cultural push for non binary frameworks. Eighty seven percent of
students identify as exclusively heterosexual and support a binary model
(13:43):
of gender. Only seven percent embrace gender as a spectrum.
Seventy seven percent disagree with prioritizing gender identity over biological sex,
especially in areas like sports or health care. I have
(14:06):
made the statement on the air just observing my children's generation,
and I'm telling you, gender and COVID is where they
went too far and they lost an entire generation. In
other words, I hope these same two researchers from Northwestern
and from Michigan come back again and do the exact
(14:29):
same research and trend it four years from now, because
then you're going to get very close to ninety eight percent,
not eighty eight percent. This is where the left went
too far, and this study even shows it. And there
(14:52):
are a lot that will talk a good game about
critical thinking, they just don't want it in practice. But
this is not just universities. It's case through twelve education
has becomeing doctrination and socialization, and they went too far,
especially with COVID and gender that's about to all unravel. Hey,
what if you could delay your next two mortgage payments.
Wouldn't that be great? Even if it's two thousand a month,
(15:13):
they're four thousand a month. That's a lot of money
in your pocket, a little breathing room, as I like
to say, Well, it's possible. When you call American financing today,
you're feeling stretched by everyday expenses and we all are groceries,
gas bills piling up. You're not alone, and most Americans
are putting these expenses on credit cards. Well, that's where
(15:33):
the real suffocation comes in. High interest credit card debt
bearing you and you feel like there's no way out.
But there is. Call American financing today before you get
to the point where you can't make those payments. That's
real problems. There's salary based mortgage consultants, no high pressure,
no incentive. They're there to help home owners just like
you restructure your loans and consolidate your debt. There are
(15:56):
no upfront freeze, up upfront fees, and our average customers
are saving eight hundred or more a month. It's like
getting a ten thousand dollars raise. It's fast, it's simple.
You have everything to save and nothing to lose. Aw
some breathing room. Call today American Financing eight six six

forward slash Michael. This is your morning show with Michael
del Chrono. He said in the past that his constitution
doesn't permit giving up land. Does his constitutions permit him
being a forever dictator. I think our talkback question of
(16:42):
today is going to be is Big John talking about
Putin or Zaliitski? Because I really don't know. I guessed Putin.
I think it's Putin. He's talking about red things. Is Zalinski?
Don't forget to don't forget to use the talkback button
if you're listening on the iHeart Apple little microphone. President
will professionally count you down three to two one. We
(17:04):
don't wait on hold anymore and waste your time and
talk radio, your morning show. Take your place in an
instant by pressing that button. And do you think Big
John's talking about Zelensky.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
There was a proportion of that talk back that was
transcribed that was missing in the audio.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
But he is talking about Yeah, thank he's talking about Putin,
Zelenski or Putin which was talking about Zelensky? Oh he was, yes, Okay, Well,
Zelensky is meeting with the President today and European leaders
are coming along with him Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Finland. Meanwhile,
the US State Department is going to stop approving visitor
visas from the Gaza. Powerball is up to six hundred
(17:43):
and five million. A Hurricane Aaron could bring life threatening
surf and rip currents to the Eastern Seaboard in the
coming days. And somehow the Buffalo Bill's lost last night
to the Bears thirty eight to nothing. Pouch. This is
Steve of the Rest, a refugee from the People's Republic
of Minnesota, and my morning show is your morning show
(18:07):
with Michael del jornal Hi. It's Michael. Your Morning show
can be heard live on great radio stations across the
country like wilm and w DOV and Wilmington and Dover,
Delaware or wgst AM seven twenty the voice in Middle Georgia.
(18:27):
And we're going to need some blankets. News Radio six
fifty k NI, Anchorage, Alaska. We'd love to be a
part of your morning routine. Now enjoy the podcast, dim Michael.
Jeffrey's got control of the sounds red, keeping an eye
on the content, and you all busy on the talkback
line at that talkback button. We'll get to your calls
here in a second. US State Department is stopping approvals
(18:49):
of visas coming from the Gaza. Zelensky's headed to the
White House and a lot of European leaders will join
him from Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Finland as President
Trump continues to try to lead first to a ceasefire,
ultimately to peace between Russia and Ukraine. And the biggest
powerball jackpod of the year. Not ever, shockingly, I find
(19:12):
out we've had a powerball at two billion. But now
this one goes to six hundred and five million with
no winter on Saturday, and we had a talkback. I
don't know if we're going to get this in before
John Decker or after. Okay, so this is what my
news feed says. Hurricane Aaron could bring life threatening surf
and rip currents to the eastern seaboard. I always thought
(19:35):
it was rip tides as well, and so does our lister,
Good morning, Michael.
Speaker 5 (19:40):
Rip currents are not currents. They're ripped tides. They're produced
randomly and all around. Currents are there all the time.
So that's a biso where it's a bad use of
the language. And Zelinsky has been in charge ever since
the war started, in before if there's not been an
election in the holes, so Zelinsky's also a dictator.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Look at the facts that's going on. That's why we said,
you know, Big John needed to specify. We didn't know
if he was talking about right, putin or Zelensky. All Right,
what a historic visit John Decker got to have in Alaska.
That's one he'll tell his grandkids about someday. Back to
the Oval office. This morning is Zelensky's arriving and leaders
(20:26):
from Europe as the saga continues, I guess John, first
things first, what was it like to be in Alaska
for such a historic summit.
Speaker 6 (20:35):
Well, it was historic, a lot of anticipation as both
President Trump and President Putin arrived, A lot of anticipation, Michael.
At the start of that press conference, no questions asked.
Disappointing about that. Disappointing also that there was no deal
reach to just in terms of a ceasefire, and that's
what the President had been seeking prior to his meeting
(20:56):
with President Putin. So yeah, a long trip that the
President made, a lung ship I made as well. I've
made it back to Washington, DC, and I'll be in
the Oval Office today when the President meets with President
Zelenski and those other European leaders.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Yeah. Marco Rubio was on the tour this weekend, Face
the Nation, Meet the Press this week with ABC, and
all the hosts were very antagonistic. Certainly, the president wanted
a ceasefire, didn't get it, But as Marco Rubio stated,
there was enough progress to continue moving forward. After all,
what's the alternative more dying and more sanctions and punishment.
(21:32):
But Steve Whitcoff, he really comes back with I think
a pretty big accomplishment. If Putin is going to allow
the US to provide security guarantees, that's no small factor
in this, and the President on social media making it clear,
so let's go. Only needs to do two things, and
we got ourselves a ceasefire in a peace process. One
is crimea which if you don't like C. Twenty fourteen,
(21:55):
and then the other is just not being a part
of NATO. If that's all there is, that's a deal
he should take. Well.
Speaker 6 (22:05):
Putin is asking for land that he doesn't already that
he hasn't already conquered. That's a fact, and why should
Putin get land he hasn't conquered. He wants an easy
way out. It's taking him three plus years and he's
barely gained any ground. He's relied on North Korea, he's
relied on Iran.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
He's relied on China.
Speaker 6 (22:25):
He can't fight this battle for himself, and now he
wants to gain some ground at the negotiating table. That's
the reason why these European leaders have come to Washington,
because that's not a fair deal, that's not a good
makes some concessions one way or another, but that hasn't
happened just yet on the part of Putin.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
But yes, it's what I'm getting at is and it's
speculative based on what the president put on truth social
But if the president feels confident that he can back
it back to where it was really prior to the invasion,
Ukraine cannot be a part of NATO and an assurance
of that, the US has the ability to provide security guarantees.
And all you have to do is keep Crimeri crime
(23:06):
Eric crime. Say it for me now that I'm bring
dead crime it back in the into the Russian category.
If that's something they could settle on, that would be
a deal. If he wants more land than that, then
obviously that's a deal breaker.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
Yeah. Also, why should Putin determine who's a part of
the NATO defense a lines wat should some other country determine,
you know, to talk to and dictate what the other
thirty two members of NATO may want. I'm not saying
that all thirty two members are all on board having
Ukraine as a member down the road, but you know,
putin the dictator telling NATO what to do, that's a last.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
Well, somebody's got to negotiate a ceasefire and an ultimate
piece and a lasting piece, and there's going to have
to be concessions on both sides. I mean we could,
right yeah, So I mean, you know, somebody's have to
give something. Do you sense, because this was what the
left media was trying to narrativize this weekend, that these
(24:02):
leaders from Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Finland are here
just to make sure the President doesn't bully Zelensky into
some kind of a bad deal. And Marko Ruby is saying, no,
we invited them. They've been in the process all along,
which to you sense, you're right there.
Speaker 6 (24:20):
Well, look, I don't know. I don't know the conversations
that occurred between President Trump and these European leaders. I
think that more than anything else, they want to be
a part of this process. They because it impacts them
in a very real way. So I can't speculate in
terms of why or how the invitation was extended. But
(24:40):
they're going to be here, that's the bottom line, and
so is President Zelenski, and we'll see what comes.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Out of it.
Speaker 6 (24:46):
You mentioned Mark Rubia, the Secretary of State, and I
watched many of those interviews that he did on those
Sunday morning shows and tell me if you disagree with me,
Mark Michael, I don't think that he sounds optimist, sick
about getting to a deal anytime in the near future.
Did you get that sense, Michael, Well.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
I think he thinks it's a very difficult negotiation, one
that has to be tried. I didn't sense either way.
I liked when he got to the point and I
can't remember if I think it was with Kristin Walker
where he just reminded her, Look, this isn't our war.
This is Ukraine's war, Russia's war. We're doing all we
(25:27):
can and we should be getting credit for doing all
we can to try to bring a ceasefire in peace,
but we can't assure it, and if it doesn't happen,
it's not our failure and it's not our war. I
think that's the part that I think is lost in
all this. But is there if there were a way
to negotiate, And according to Whitkoff, we've got that assurance
from Putin and we already kind of weaseled our way
there with the mineral rights because we'll be there to
(25:49):
protect them now. But if Putin's willing to concede and
allow the US and Europe to have security guarantees and
security forces and give them just crimea nothing more, you know,
and not being NATO. That to me is a pretty
good deal. Now. I don't know how that's going to
fair out with the European leaders, with Putin, or with
(26:09):
the courtroom of public opinion, but that would perceive to
be a good deal. Now. Whether or not everybody can
agree on one time will tell. And ultimately the enemy
always has to say, right, John, I mean, how could
work for Rubio or anyone else know what the enemy
is going to do if Putin's willing to fight. I
don't see a way for Putin to win anything more
(26:30):
than yeah. So, I mean, I don't even know why
he would want to continue to throw more lives at this.
But I think we should all be rooting for peace.
Why because wars rarely end where they begin and with
the same players they begin with. That's always a threat
to the world. And I do think this president really
does care about the lives that are being lost. I
(26:52):
really believe that.
Speaker 6 (26:54):
Oh, I agree, there's no doubt about it. And you
know that's if that wasn't the case, then he wouldn't
be so invested in having this meeting today at the
White House, having various means traveling to Alaska. You're one
hundred percent.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
Right about that. So you know, it's as the.
Speaker 6 (27:08):
President says, I always say this, because it's true, it
takes two to tango. And you know, even if you
have one of the parties that may be on board
a proposal being put forward by the President, in this
case Ukraine, you know, they were all on board the
thirty day Seas Fire proposal, the other party, Russia, is
not on board, and that's really frustrating for the President.
(27:29):
And I think it's extremely frustrating for the President, you know,
after having that three hour plus long meeting with President
Putin on Friday in Alaska, and then you know, coming
back and having this very important meeting today in the
Oval Office and also an extended meeting in the East Room.
I'll be at both of those meetings, Michael, and I
look forward to talking to you tomorrow about that, and
(27:50):
hopefully I have an opportunity to ask the President and
some of those leaders and questions during the course of
those meetings.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
White House correspondent John Decker from your Morning show, Love
You appreciate you. We'll talk again to my I don't
know what a good day today is. I guess you
know you're talking about takes two to tango. Well you
started adding Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Finland, the American media.
That's too many dance partners. But I think a good
day today would be to get everybody on the same page,
(28:19):
President Trump from a neutral position, and then Zelenski and
the European leaders all in the same page and comfortable
with a second meeting planned. That's a good day today. Now.
US Special Envoy Steve Whitcoff says we had a pretty
good day in Alaska because President Trump and Vladimir Putin
agreed to robust security guarantees for Ukraine. That was a
(28:43):
major thing Zolensky was holding out for. Mark Mayfield has more.
Speaker 7 (28:47):
Widgoff talked about the agreement in an interview with CNN's
State of the Union.
Speaker 8 (28:51):
We got to an agreement that the United States and
other European nations could effectively or offer Article five like
language to cover a security guarantee.
Speaker 7 (29:06):
Witcom, who sent in on Trump's meeting with Putin on Friday,
said it was the first time we had ever heard
the Russians agree to such a provision.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
He said.
Speaker 7 (29:13):
Other riemas also included a legislative enshointment by Russia to
not go into any other territory when the peace deal
is codified. I'm Mark Neyfield.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
More Republican led states are sending National Guard troops to
our nation's capital.
Speaker 9 (29:26):
The governors of Ohio and South Carolina are sending a
combined three hundred and fifty soldiers to Washington. This comes
after West Virginia's governor announced he was sending over three
hundred troops to DC. President Trump claims Washington is experiencing
a crime and homelessness emergency. I'm Lisa Carton.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
The State Department is stopping approvals of visitor visas from
people from the Gaza. Scott Carr reports from Washington.
Speaker 10 (29:50):
State Department officials said Saturday it was conducting a full
and thorough review of the visa process, specifically for people
seeking temporary medical visas. The department has allowed a small
number of cousins to travel to the US for medical
attention since the start of the Israel Hamas War in
October of twenty twenty three. The announcement came just one
(30:10):
day after pro Trump activist Laura Lumer criticized the visa
program in a post on X I'm Scott Carr in Washington.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Although it's not expected to make landfall in the United States,
Hurricane Aaron will bring unsettled waters to the shores of
America this week.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
The warning comes after two swimmers died along the Jersey
Shore just last week. The massive hurricane is expected to
stay well offshore, but its winds will bring dangerous surf
to the Jersey Shore and Long Island. Lifeguards are reminding
swimmers to swim parallel to the shore if they get
stuck in a rip current, and to only swim when
lifeguards are on duty. Jonathan o'haller and NBC News Radio,
(30:49):
New York.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
I've never said this on the air before, but I
owe my life to a Men's Health magazine article on
that Andrew and I were I think we were in
the Bahamas. Yeah, sandals. We were on one of those
little pedal things and we were just busy talking. Next
thing we know, we look back and short looked like
a pinpoint. I'm like, what happened? And we were in
(31:11):
a riptide. So I remembered reading that Men's health, and
I said, paddle hard. We got to go parallel, and
I mean we were paddling hard. It took a while,
but we finally got out of it and made the
long journey back home. I don't stay out of the water. Yeah,
I'm getting that way, the older I get. The actor
who played an iconic villain on the big screen has
passed away.
Speaker 11 (31:29):
English actor Terrence Stamp has died at the age of
eighty seven.
Speaker 9 (31:33):
I see you are practiced in worshiping things that fly, good.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Rise before Zod.
Speaker 11 (31:42):
Stamp was known for his role as General Zod in
the Superman films. Stamp's family confirmed the news in a
statement to Reuters, saying in part that he leaves behind
an extraordinary body of work, both as an actor and
as a writer that will continue to touch and inspire
people for years to come. No cause of death was
I'm Rob Bartier. Yeah, my wife of course, said Zod.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Valkyrie is what I think is one of the most
terrific movies ever made. It may have been one of
Tom Cruise's best. He was in Valkyrie. He was also
in Wall Street. People forget he was opposite, you know,
competitor of the role played by Michael Douglas, and he
(32:25):
was in Young Guns as well. If you google him
and you see his face, you go, oh him, Yeah,
that's Terence Damp. Biggest powerball jackpot of the year got
even bigger this weekend.
Speaker 12 (32:37):
Nobody matched all six numbers in Saturday nights drawing of
the nationwide lottery, so that five hundred and sixty five
million dollars jackpot rolls over and will be worth at
least six hundred and five million dollars in tonight's drawing.
That for surpasses the five hundred and twenty six million
dollar powerball jackpot that was one last March by a
ticket buyer in California. In tonight's drawing, if the cash
option is taken and there's a winner, for will walk
(33:00):
away with at least two hundred and seventy three million.
I'm Chammy Trhio.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
All right, We've gone through the box score and we

eight to nothing to the Chapaul Cobars, Lions lost twenty
four to seventeen to the Fins. Titans won twenty three
to twenty over the Falcons. Browns beat the Eagles twenty

your morning show Interest in Baseball. Reds three two over
the Brewers. Snapping, was that a thirteen or fourteen game
winning streak for the Brewers? Good job, Reds. Cardinals swept

to four over the Braves, Tigers fell eight four to

have your morning show without your voice. Here's Austin and
(35:57):
Saint Louis. Good morning, Michael.
Speaker 13 (36:00):
Not that I'm taking the Russian side. What everyone acts
like this was just out of the blue, But no
one wants to talk about how many times NATO violated
their treaties with Russia about not adding more countries and
not moving closer to Russia.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Yeah, that's why it's going to be a sticking point.
There's going to be no concession there that Ukraine cannot
be in NATO. Bob's in Mississippi. I heard that little
fellow on there talk about Putin doing the bullying.
Speaker 4 (36:29):
Well, when you're the number two nuclear you do a
little bullying just like the number one.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
That's why I loved when Rubio said they're already on
the world stage. They're a superpower. They're the ones in
a war Wesley's in Nashville.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
Michael, you have to understand that when it comes from
Russian history, from the Tsars to the Soviet leaders to
this clown now, they don't care how many people die
as long as they stay in power.
Speaker 1 (36:55):
Yeah. Well, listen, there's no question that Vladimir Putin wants
to put back together the Russian Empire map. He's a
long way from that, and he's ready to take an
offer him and everything should be done to show him
the way. We're all in this together. This is your
Morning Show with Michael ndel Joano
