We'd love to be a part of your morning routine.
Now enjoy the podcast Your Morning Show with Michael o'bill
(00:23):
Jordan seven minutes after the hour. Let me be the
first to say good morning and welcome to Wednesday, September seventeenth,
twenty twenty five, on the air and streaming live on
your iHeartRadio app. This is your morning show. I'm honored
to serve you. I'm Michael. Jeffrey's got the sound, Red's
got the content, and we got you on talkback here
in a moment. Four people in the United Kingdom have
(00:45):
been arrested after photos of President Trump and convicted sex
offender Jeffrey Epstein were projected onto Windsor Castle. FBI director
Cash Battel says there's no credible information that Jeffrey Epstein
trafficked women to anyone bus sides himself, and the FED
is expected to cut interest rates today by at least
a quarter. Well, the man charged with the murder of
(01:06):
Charlie Kirk made his first court appearance. Your Morning Show
National correspondent Roy O'Neil with the very latest in this investigation.
Good morning, Rory, Yeah, Good morning Michael.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
The court appearance itself was pretty basic, not that interesting
as it was a video link up from the jail
to the courthouse. But the press conference that happened an
hour or two before that hearing that she revealed an
awful lot of information about just how much evidence has
been collected in the past week, really starting to put
together a timeline of events that was pretty understandable. And
(01:38):
there's the physical evidence with DNA, but also so much
digital evidence with what appeared to be confessions between the
suspect and his lover.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
And then even we saw notes that the.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Mom was fully aware, you know, she recognized her son
on those videos and that in some ways started the
ball rolling on getting him to surrender.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
So let's start with the text exchange. It shows planning
and he comes right out and says about a week.
It shows planning and intent and premeditation. The lover asks him, wait,
they got a guy in custody. Are you saying you no,
I did it. That's just some crazy nut they picked up.
(02:18):
So you have confession, you got DNA on the trigger itself,
you've got all the video evidence, You've got the confession
on discord. I mean, and Rory I said this earlier.
You know, you only have to present enough to present
the charges, you know, and get the court ball rolling.
(02:40):
There might be even more significant evidence than this that
they haven't even laid out yet. And this looks overwhelming.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Indeed, and as I said, both in the physical evidence
that you mentioned and in the digital evidence that's out
there as well. But by the way, and just a
heads up, don't expect the prosecution to talk about this
case again, not until verditures reached. They're not going to
release information like this, especially not along the way. They'll say, look,
we're going to save it for the trial. And so
(03:08):
you know, this really is the most just going to
hear from.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
The prosecution, which is what I was, which is what
I was trying to communicate, you know, in other words,
yesterday we knew the confession on discord. That's nothing compared
to the full text message exchange that we received yesterday.
I mean, what else is coming forward once the trial
starts in evidence rights lived in discovery.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
And then what the Feds now I'm probably going to
focus more on. Is we saw in the messages that
apparently this guy started to have his shift in political
views two or three years ago, but really went off
the deep end in the past year. And they'll want
to look into, well, wait, how did that happen? Was
there a group behind it? Was someone funding it? So
I think from the FBI and the Justice Department standpoint,
(03:51):
they want to see who was, if anyone else was
manipulating this man and trying to turn him toward this
path of violence, and what funding may be behind there.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
So they're going to go down that rabbit hole.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
But it looks like from a Utah prosecution standpoint, they've
already got this thing pretty buckled down in just a week's.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Time, and the burden you need for capital punishment all
but seems laid out already without any further evidence those factors. Yeah, yeah,
I mean all of that five charges aggravated murder that'll
face capital punishment, felony charges of a firearm causing serious
bodily art, bodily injury, obstruction of justice, two counts, witness tampering,
(04:30):
two counts, commission of a violent offense in the presence
of a child. I guess the letter is the one
thing that we don't have complete clarity, right the appearances
that he had left a letter, which if he did,
wouldn't his lover have known prior to the text exchange.
(04:51):
Then that letter was destroyed and then later recovered the
picture of it. So I mean, there's some some things
that you know, need some dusting out, but that's what
the trials for. Not perfect.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
And we also haven't heard from the defense here the courts,
they're working to appoint a defense attorney for this guy,
you know, whether or not we go down the mental
if there's an insanity plea, if we start going down
that route. But we also have not heard from the defense.
So there's another court hearing on the twenty ninth. They
hope to have a lawyer for him by them.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Roy O'Neil great reporting is always we'll be back in
the third hour. I think one interesting note. I choose
to do this without Roy because I don't want to
put Ory in this position. But in the case of
the Trump first assassin, he's taken out by a sniper.
In the case of many mass shootings, they then kill themselves.
(05:44):
Don't even want to suggest it's a silver lining. But
in the case of Minneapolis and in the case of
Tyler Robinson, there's really no doubt as to what the
motive is. They make it crystal clear. In the case
of Minneapolis, was etched on the weapon, was etched on
the ammunition. In the case of Tyler Robinson and the
(06:05):
Charlie Kirk assassination, was etched down the weapon, What was
etched in the ammunition, what was texted, what was confessed
on discord. It leaves no doubt whatsoever to timeline, to motive.
The twenty minute video of the Minneapolis shooter left no question. Really.
(06:31):
The only question left was was this a very mentally
ill individual. Was this a not demonic possessed individual. But
at the root of it was transgenderism. And what we
do know is he felt duped and he didn't want
(06:52):
to live anymore. He was an unhappy transgender and for
some reason wanted to take it out on innocent children.
We talked about this yesterday. Perhaps we get Freudian, but
he was once an innocent child having a happy life
(07:12):
and felt indoctrinated and duped into being transgender. Dupe was
his word, and wanted to take it out on what
he once was innocent children. But he left no doubt
even though he took his life, he left no doubt
with all the evidence he left behind. In the case
of Tyler Robinson, he's still here. We have his letter,
(07:34):
we have his texts, we have his confessions. So we
did a piece of research yesterday. Sixty percent of the
American people think this kid was maga. There were people
on left cable networks, Jimmy Kimmel. Jimmy Kimmell gets the
award right. Jimmy Kimmel goes on Late Night and makes
(07:57):
jokes about how they're trying to distance this from being
a MAGA shooter. This is one a maga is killing
their own. Does he apologize, does he get fired? Does
he resign in shame? What was on? What was a
(08:26):
look on Jimmy Kimmel's face. Are everybody on the left
playing tug of war with the with a simple right
and wrong situation because their narratives all got shot down.
And that's just the preliminary evidence. To meet the burden
of trial. I thought about, what do I read you
(08:49):
the entire text exchange in case you missed the news conference.
I mean, we can, but it's I mean there was
actually was it CNN? No, it was ABC. ABC had
a reporter. He even presented with this crystal clear, fantastic
evidence of motive. He illuminates everything from how his politics
(09:14):
have changed, even mocks his father, who, since Trump took office,
as becoming increasingly maga. He makes it crystal clear he's
not maga. He makes it crystal clear he's driven by
transgendered love and hated for anybody that opposes it. And
some hate is so great you can't negotiate with it.
You must kill it. That's what he tells his lover.
(09:35):
There's no room to fight on any narrative hills any longer.
In the case of the Minneapolis shooter and the Charlie
Kirk assassin, they make it crystal clear who they were,
why they were, what they did, why they did it,
And now we fight over what motivated it and not
(09:57):
discussed very much, and it will pop up, I'm sure sure.
Is the state of mental illness and what happens when
a psychetric community, and a culture wants to change its
mind about something for woke's sake, political correctness sake, and
affirm such behavior and then wonder when that behavior backfires
(10:23):
what caused it? Or as I said, two things really
just kind of describe where I'm at right now, and
it's not a great place. We had a furry who
killed a godly man who was always tolerant, respectful, and
(10:46):
just trying to get America to talk again. In other words,
he was busy being the solution. And now we have
a furry in love with a transgender killing him. A
seventy one year old who first claimed to kill him,
that was taken into custody he was apparently a nut,
(11:07):
got treatment at the hospital that admitted he didn't kill him,
and then on his phone the police find child born.
It makes me afraid of what's next? Or how about
yesterday three assassins all in the news. You had Tyler
Robinson in court appearing via streaming, Luigi Manjoni, who killed
(11:29):
the CEO of United Healthcare, and Ryan Ruth, the second
assassin of Donald Trump. I mean, seriously, my father used
to say how much can a fly eat? And now
there's a tug of war. Who's gonna get Charlie Kirk's
empty chair? I want to know how Charlie Kirk became
(11:50):
such a political football, and how I'm supposed to celebrate now, Okay,
in this time of great violence, a president whose life
has been tried to be taken twice is going to
appear in one place with the vice president, with the
Secretary of State, all three planning to speak on stage.
And I'm wondering who the designated is survivor is and
(12:13):
how wise this is. Then you added that RFK Junior,
Susie Wilds, the chief of Staff, Pete Hegsept, the Secretary
of Defense, and advisor of the president Stephen Miller Don
Junior's son of the president, Tucker Carlson. Oh yeah, and
his wife gets to speak. It looks more like a
Republican convention. So we're getting your talkbacks as well. I'll
(12:34):
get to those here shortly. All right, How safe is
your retirement? Wars? Everywhere? Debt continues to skyrocket. We're about
sixty days for perhaps the government shutdown, and the dollar
keeps losing its purchasing power, the value of dollars falling
and falling fast, every day. That's why more people are
(12:55):
converting their IRA or four to one case to gold
and silver IRA to protect the retirement savings. In twenty
twenty five, both gold and silver rose an impressive twenty
nine percent, and many experts expect bigger gains ahead. Take
action now convert some of your IRA in four oh
one k to gold and silver IRA with lear Capital

Michael del Chono. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for
Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, being held without bond
in Utah. Authorities say the tam Man who was arrested
(14:01):
just after Charlie Kirk was assassinated. He fell medically ill,
was taken to the hospital. Then once he felt better,
said oh no, I didn't do it. Police has to
see his phone. Then he gets arrested for childborn. These
stories just keep coming in. The FED is expected to
cut interest Drakes by a quarter. Today we'll have more
(14:22):
on that with John Decker and the President is in
the UK, and boy it got heated and sounds the
day you'll hear Cash Patel go at it with a
Democrat senator. That more coming up. Can't have your morning
show without your voice. I'm want to start with I believe,
and it's a long list. Daniel, Daniel's gone. Sorry I
met that. Daniel's gone. How about Randy, I'm with you.
(14:46):
They should let Charlie Kirk's family more in his loss.
The ny should has done their part. Let them have
their peace.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
Randy True, I think you're right about Charlie Kirk. He's
been made into this right being conservative activist when more
than anything he was he was a Christian with the
Ministry for the Youth, and this is more of a
case of the Christian martyr in America than than anything else.
(15:17):
I think if Jesus had lived today and was crucified today,
he would he would have been made out to be
a conservative activist and not the figure that he was.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
That was true, by the way. And yeah, the concern
is is the life and the body of Charlie Kirk
becoming a political football, and as our attention getting further
and further away from a God who can heal this
country and more towards further political divide. I don't know
where Gary's from. We normally do the from. Yeah, we
(15:48):
got Tygary w. Lac in Nashville.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
Says, we got psychologists to get Cale is what it
really is.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
It's a bunch of that gum nut cases that have
been infiltrated our government and our social welfare system. To
Saint Louis and the patriot we go.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Hey, Michael, maybe the polls should ask the people how
they feel about assassination or murder of a political figure
instead of just the death of a political figure.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
I don't know what particular research. The research that I
went over was asking Americans specifically about political violence. Rodney,
it's the final say. I think you're spot on about
Charlie Kirk's faith. We're losing focus on what he really
stood for Christ being the answer there, and I think
we as a nation really need to turn back. Yeah.
(16:46):
We were just discussing the political matrix divide in our
country and now it's turned into a tug of war
over Charlie's life. Was he hate? Was he a martyr?
Left says that the right says martyr to visions on
the far right over who should fill his chair and
take over his mission. We're going to visit more on
that third hour with senior contributor David Sanadi about where
(17:08):
this divide continues and where it might be headed and
where we must not allow it to arrive. Missus Patrick
from Christiana, Tennessee. My morning show is your Morning Show
with Michael dill Jorno. Hey, it's me Michael. You can
(17:29):
listen to your morning show live on the air or
streaming live on your iHeart app Monday through Friday from
three to six Pacific, five to eighth Central, and six
to nine Eastern on great radio stations like Talk six
fifty KSTE and Sacramento or one oh four nine. The
Patriot in Saint Louis had to impact radio one oh
five nine and twelve fifty whd Z in Tampa, Florida.
(17:50):
Sure hope you can join us live and make us
a part of your morning routine. In the meantime, enjoy
the podcast as we've got a new question for the
talkback line. What is more beautiful imagery the way Donald
Trump was greeted in Saudi Arabia and cutter or what
we're seeing right now in the carriage procession in Windsor, England,
as the President, the first Lady and the King and
(18:15):
they make their way to the Windsor castle. I mean,
this is breathtaking. What is that about a mile of
soldiers it lined up in full uniform. The horses what
about this I'm sure it has a name, but this
guard all on black horses with the gold helmets and
the just absolutely breathtaking. As the carriages arrive, Donald Trump
is in Windsor. We'll get more from John Decker on
(18:37):
that if you're just waking up. We are expecting interest
rates to be cut today. Best estimates seem to be
a quarter of point. Maybe tomorrow we'll talk with our
money whiz David Boonson about what he thinks the impact
will be In general, and the further cuts to come
and how quickly and how it might affect mortgage rates.
Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for Charlie Kirk's asassin,
(19:00):
Tyler Robinson, being held without bond in Utah. Meanwhile, the
Utah man, the seventy one year old who was arrested
right after Charlie Kirk's assassination, claiming he did it, well,
he didn't. He got medical treatment and admitted it, and
then later they found porn on his phone. Child Born
and FBI director Cash Pttel says there's no credible information
that Jeffrey Epstein ever trafficked women to anyone besides himself,
(19:24):
and four people in the United Kingdom have been arrested
after photos of President Trump and convicted sex offender Jeffrey
Epstein were projected onto Windsor Castle that has been since
removed and the carriages are now arriving at Windsor Castle.
I don't know, John Decker, if you're anywhere near a television,
and god forbid we bring up television on the radio.
(19:46):
But these images are breathtaking.
Speaker 5 (19:49):
Well, they certainly impressed President Trump as well as First
Lady Malanias Trump. This is the second time that they
are being honored with this state visit. A first time,
of course, was in twenty nine nineteen, and that was,
of course when Queen Elizabeth the Second welcome the President
to at the time Buckingham Palace. This is at Windsor Castle,
(20:09):
and the President will spend the entire day there, finishing
out with the lavish state dinner at Windsor Castle.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
You know, I'm watching this one carriage with Trump. I
don't know if you're watching, but is that I don't
think that's Charles with the President. I think it's the Prince, right.
Speaker 5 (20:27):
I'm watching it and at the angle that I have
is sort of from behind, so I can't really tell
who's with President Trump. But that would not be surprising
to me in the sense that the Prince and Princess
of Wales were initially welcoming President Trump and the First
Lady to Windsor Castle.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah. There our five carriages, I believe in all, and
they have arrived at Windsor Castle and it is just breathtaking.
All right, we are expecting interest rate cuts today. The
question is how big? And then how many more are
to follow before the end of the year.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
Yeah, the expectation is a quarter point interest rate cut
by the Fed as they conclude their two day meeting.
And then the big question is do they lower interest
rates two more times? They meet once more in October,
another time in December. They do not meet in November,
So that's the big question that the markets will be
looking at, is whether or not the feed continues these
(21:21):
interest rate cuts through the remainder of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
This is some of the President's been pushing for and
felt like should have happened a long time ago. Here's
the tug of war on this one. There are some
and this is probably opinion, but kind of uncertainty created
by tariffs that kind of make inflation look like it's
not necessarily stable. The other side is we had to
(21:48):
adjust jobs nine hundred thousand plus from the Biden administration's projections. Therefore,
that's a lot of new real information for this board
to act on. One looks like they will lower even
more in October December, and one says they may have
a little bit of a wait and see of how
these cuts are playing out. Is that a pretty good read?
Speaker 5 (22:12):
Well, it is, you know, I think they want to
see the impact of an interest rate cut that happens today.
They also want to see what happens as far as
the employment picture is concerned in the months that follow
You know, are we going to see this slowdown that
we've seen over the course of the summer, including last month,
in terms of jobs creation in the US If that continues,
(22:34):
then maybe we do continue to see further interest rate
cuts between now and the end of twenty twenty five,
perhaps two more during their next two meetings.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
All right, John Decker, White House Correspondent joining us. The
President has made this a centerpiece of his plan. Why
is this so important to the president? What will these
cuts mean to him?
Speaker 5 (22:54):
Well, it's important because he believes that the one sector
of the US economy that is not really seeing the
kind of growth that we've seen in other sectors of
the economy is the housing market. And by cutting interest rates,
it would have a trickle down effect on mortgage rates,
and that could in turn lead to refinancings. It could
(23:14):
also lead to an increase in home buying across the country,
spurring that sector of the economy and helping out the
overall US economy going forward. So that's the reason why
the President has really been pushing for interest rates over
the course of the past few months.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
I talked about this with Rory yesterday. But there's a
lot of people that were paying for inflation with high
interest credit card and then they were using the equity
in their home because they certainly couldn't sell it. Yeah,
you'd get top dollar for it, but then you go
pay higher dollar at a higher interest rate for something new,
so that kind of squeezed in the inventory. A lot
of those people have now turned to helocks or second mortgages,
(23:53):
and they're going to be interested in refinancing when the
number the mortgage rate gets to a certain point. I
don't think it's high fives, but if it gets to
low fives or high fours, then I think you really
see the movement that they're looking for. But nobody seems
to know what that magic number is. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (24:10):
Maybe the FED chairman has an idea, maybe other FED
governors have an idea about what the magic number is.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
But you know, it's really there's no expert on this.
Speaker 5 (24:21):
You know, you really do have to gauge what the
impact of interest rate cuts will be on the overall economy,
the global economy as well, and that's what the fed's
job is, that's what their purpose is, and that as
a result, you know, I think it's important to see
what Jerome Pal's remarks are after he likely will announce
this interest rate cut today at two pm Eastern time.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
You know, it seems like after debates we have open
spin rooms, unapologetic spin rooms. You never get that with John.
You want to know the very latest in the White
House reaction to the very latest, you need to listen
to the White House Briefing Room and the podcast will
be up at nine eastern eight Central this morning, and
you can hear more from j on there at the
White House Briefing Room. You'll find it on the iHeart
(25:03):
app and go ahead and give that a preset, just
like you do your morning show. That way you have
easy access every day. Thank you so much. John. All right,
it is forty two minutes after the hour. I want
to do good waiting on the consequence.
Speaker 6 (25:15):
It is the best way to get back on your favors,
to get.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Up off your app. I've been living rent free in
that guy's head for years and that's just a bum.
Speaker 6 (25:22):
Do you go that chicken and add they're just blowing
off Steve.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
We got some cash, mittel for you, and sounds of
the day, always revealing, often entertaining. Yesterday we had Harry
Entton walking through and look if sadly I am correct
and Charlie Kirk's life, legacy and now remains are a
political football. There's a good reason why, politically.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
So.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Yesterday, Harry Anton lays out how eighteen to twenty four
year olds thirty four percent voted for Trump in twenty sixteen,
thirty one percent in twenty twenty, forty three percent in
twenty twenty four. Make no mistake about it. Democrats have
been using out of state, in state students on campuses
(26:08):
to swing elections, and Charlie Kirk changed that and he
delivered the young vote. Now, they were already struggling with
a bad candidate. They're already struggling with a very divided party,
unenergized party. Heck, the socialist Democrats are trying to take
over the party. They had lost and hemorrhage black vote,
(26:31):
and they had lost the voting block of Hispanic votes.
This was just the knockout blow. Charlie Kirk was a
big deal because he delivered big election results and the
right wants to keep that for the midterms in the
twenty twenty eights, and the left wants to seize that back.
(26:56):
Didn't get a chance in time yesterday play this, but
here's the second half of that story from Harry in Listen.
This is really significant.
Speaker 7 (27:02):
When we dig into the numbers a little bit deeper,
we can see even more of the influence of Charlie Kirk.
What are we talking about, Well, let's take a look
at males under the age of twenty five, that is,
age eighteen to twenty four year old males presidential margin.
You go back to twenty sixteen, Hillary Clinton easily won
that vote by eleven points. You jump ahead to twenty twenty,
you can see Joe Biden nearly double Clinton's margin, won
(27:23):
by an even larger margin.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
I want to stop right there, eighteen to twenty four
year old males, because there's only two ways to look
at that. In twenty sixteen, Hillary was plus eleven. In
twenty twenty virtually doubled that. Biden was plus twenty. Is
that young males not willing to vote for a woman,
(27:49):
or is that the shadow campaign to save the democracy,
the weaponizing of COVID, the changing of election laws, unconstitutionally
and not going through state legislatures and the ability to
create and harvest ballots. I guess we'll never know. But
whether it was plus eleven for Hillary or plus twenty
(28:09):
for Biden, what was it for Trump? In twenty twenty
four post Charlie Kirk's campus influence listen margin.
Speaker 7 (28:16):
Look at this a twenty point win for Joe Biden. Well,
look at this past presidential election. Donald Trump actually won
males under the age of twenty five. He won him
by three points, and in doing so, became the first
Republican nominee for president to win males under the age
of twenty five this entire century.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
And tragically, Charlie Kirk would be killed by a male
between eighteen and twenty four years old. Well, if you
think we only fight on the internet, I mean, if
you think it only gets vicious in the courtroom public opinion,
No cash Mattel, head of FBI, squaring off. What's the
(29:04):
what's the I can't remember his name. I just went
blank on the senator's name from California, Adam Adam Chef. Thanks, Well,
I was blissed there for a second, but thanks. Here's
how that exchange went you're not answering my question.
Speaker 7 (29:20):
We have countlessly proven you to be a lawyer in Russia.
Speaker 5 (29:23):
Game in January.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
Brought to ever States Senate disgrace and an utter coward.
I'm not. It's nice to see we're finding common ground.
Speaking of that. Senator John Fetterman, Democrat from Pennsylvania, joined
(29:52):
Dave McCormick, Republican Senator from Pennsylvania on Fox Special Report
with host Brett Pere to discuss the assassinate of Charlie Kirk,
and Fetterman barned crystal clear on the dangers of rhetoric. Now,
the scary part is he's one of few. Now, look,
(30:12):
there are some people, there are a lot of Democrats
who have come forward and denounced the killing of Charlie Kirk,
but not many are open and willing to give up
any political ground. That the rhetoric is insightful, that the
rhetoric must stop. And Fetterman has been one of those
lone voices.
Speaker 8 (30:31):
Listen, ever, ever, ever, compare anyone to Hitler. If not,
go online and you can read up on exactly what
he's responsible for. You know, seventy five to eighty million
lives lost in World War Two, and you don't compare
him to anyone, and if you do, then you will
incite somebody to say, well, now I feel like I
have to stop that and take them out. People have
(30:54):
seemed to forgotten that the president took a shot to
the to the and can you imagine if that shot
would have gone the way Charlie Kirk's one, and what
kind of condition our nation would be? And this is
such a dangerous time right now, and now why you
don't need this an opportunity to share your opinions on it?
(31:16):
Just again, it's appalling and allow folks enough space to grieve.
The man hasn't even buried yet. And it's like, that's
why we wanted to have a conversation, that we have
to find a way to work together.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
You know, it seems like I'm always constantly having a
love fest the senator Fetterman. He just continually shines verbally
in the courtroom a public opinion. It was nice for
me to finally hear somebody say what I'm feeling. No,
(31:55):
we can't continue to fight this way. We need to
return to being a united country. Americans. First, it's okay
to have disagreements, significant disagreements, it's not okay to name Colin,
it's not okay to shoot. That should be obvious, But
(32:18):
Senator Fetterman was the first one to basically say, this
guy's named Medeta week he all but said, where's our
funeral etiquette? Nobody is he said, nobody's dying for your opinion.
(32:40):
A believer, a husband, a father was violently killed for
doing something constitutionally not only celebrated, but quite frankly doing
it in the most tolerant and respectful way. But can't
(33:00):
we stay focused on him, celebrate his life, pray for
his wife and children, his mother and father, be respectful?
Can't we stay in mourning? This is already a food fight,
a free for all. It's a political football. It's nice
(33:22):
to know Senator Fetterman at least gets it. It's always
tough to be Scott Jennings and have four women attacking
you at once. But here's how their exchange went yesterday
after the revealing text messages were read in court.
Speaker 9 (33:36):
So why is it acceptable to use this moment to
argue that somebody, a sick individual who committed a horrific crime,
is Somehow are you here to argue for his sanity?
Speaker 6 (33:46):
I'm here to argue. All I know was what the
prosecutor said today. He read very lucid messages from a
shooter who was motivated by political hate, who had a
plan to get away with it. He did not sound
like a deranged person. He sounded like someone who had
decided to take it upon himself to rid the world
of someone that he hated politically, that he thought that
(34:08):
the world would be better off without that.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
That's different.
Speaker 8 (34:12):
Showing up off this.
Speaker 9 (34:13):
His actions were horrific. But to assign, to assign the
specific hateful, violent, awful actions of somebody on an individual
on the right or an individual.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
On the left, I don't know that.
Speaker 9 (34:26):
Political conversation and incredibly dangerous and irresponsible in this model.
Speaker 6 (34:30):
Well, I think it's dangerous and irresponsible for nobody to
take responsibility for ten years of the use of the
language fascism, authoritarian, so on and so forth.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
It's on the bullet case.
Speaker 9 (34:42):
I have seen nothing but Democrats in the wake of
this murder saying that it was awful.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
You've seen nothing.
Speaker 9 (34:48):
I have seen them elected democrats. I have seen them
saying nothing but it was horrific. That they condemn it,
that they are sorry for his family that this is
an awful moment in the country.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Well, that's not my lean. Omar is being censured today.
I'll remind her she's seen nothing. I will say something.
It ends with another woman, I don't remember what her
name was. Reading this out of context in his defense
but relatable quote, and of course it was from Scott
(35:21):
Jennings after another shot and again you can go too
far or go too far too fast, just for your
sake and my sake. Let me make it clear to
my audience, even more so after yesterday Tyler James Robinson
killed Charlie Kirk. Tyler James Robinson has been charged with
(35:46):
aggravated murder and will face the death sentence. Now there's
some other things to discuss in an unhealthy country. That's
the one who did it careful trying to use words
like they and your prosecution. We're all in this together.
This is your Morning Show with michaelnel Choano
Hi, It's Michael. Your morning show can be heard live
on great radio stations across the country like wilm and
w DOOV and Wilmington and Dover, Delaware, or wgst AM
seven twenty the voice in Middle Georgia. And we're going
to need some blankets. News Radio six fifty k e NI, Anchorage, Alaska.
We'd love to be a part of your morning routine.
Now enjoy the podcast Your Morning Show with Michael o'bill
(00:23):
Jordan seven minutes after the hour. Let me be the
first to say good morning and welcome to Wednesday, September seventeenth,
twenty twenty five, on the air and streaming live on
your iHeartRadio app. This is your morning show. I'm honored
to serve you. I'm Michael. Jeffrey's got the sound, Red's
got the content, and we got you on talkback here
in a moment. Four people in the United Kingdom have
(00:45):
been arrested after photos of President Trump and convicted sex
offender Jeffrey Epstein were projected onto Windsor Castle. FBI director
Cash Battel says there's no credible information that Jeffrey Epstein
trafficked women to anyone bus sides himself, and the FED
is expected to cut interest rates today by at least
a quarter. Well, the man charged with the murder of
(01:06):
Charlie Kirk made his first court appearance. Your Morning Show
National correspondent Roy O'Neil with the very latest in this investigation.
Good morning, Rory, Yeah, Good morning Michael.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
The court appearance itself was pretty basic, not that interesting
as it was a video link up from the jail
to the courthouse. But the press conference that happened an
hour or two before that hearing that she revealed an
awful lot of information about just how much evidence has
been collected in the past week, really starting to put
together a timeline of events that was pretty understandable. And
(01:38):
there's the physical evidence with DNA, but also so much
digital evidence with what appeared to be confessions between the
suspect and his lover.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
And then even we saw notes that the.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Mom was fully aware, you know, she recognized her son
on those videos and that in some ways started the
ball rolling on getting him to surrender.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
So let's start with the text exchange. It shows planning
and he comes right out and says about a week.
It shows planning and intent and premeditation. The lover asks him, wait,
they got a guy in custody. Are you saying you no,
I did it. That's just some crazy nut they picked up.
(02:18):
So you have confession, you got DNA on the trigger itself,
you've got all the video evidence, You've got the confession
on discord. I mean, and Rory I said this earlier.
You know, you only have to present enough to present
the charges, you know, and get the court ball rolling.
(02:40):
There might be even more significant evidence than this that
they haven't even laid out yet. And this looks overwhelming.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Indeed, and as I said, both in the physical evidence
that you mentioned and in the digital evidence that's out
there as well. But by the way, and just a
heads up, don't expect the prosecution to talk about this
case again, not until verditures reached. They're not going to
release information like this, especially not along the way. They'll say, look,
we're going to save it for the trial. And so
(03:08):
you know, this really is the most just going to
hear from.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
The prosecution, which is what I was, which is what
I was trying to communicate, you know, in other words,
yesterday we knew the confession on discord. That's nothing compared
to the full text message exchange that we received yesterday.
I mean, what else is coming forward once the trial
starts in evidence rights lived in discovery.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
And then what the Feds now I'm probably going to
focus more on. Is we saw in the messages that
apparently this guy started to have his shift in political
views two or three years ago, but really went off
the deep end in the past year. And they'll want
to look into, well, wait, how did that happen? Was
there a group behind it? Was someone funding it? So
I think from the FBI and the Justice Department standpoint,
(03:51):
they want to see who was, if anyone else was
manipulating this man and trying to turn him toward this
path of violence, and what funding may be behind there.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
So they're going to go down that rabbit hole.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
But it looks like from a Utah prosecution standpoint, they've
already got this thing pretty buckled down in just a week's.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Time, and the burden you need for capital punishment all
but seems laid out already without any further evidence those factors. Yeah, yeah,
I mean all of that five charges aggravated murder that'll
face capital punishment, felony charges of a firearm causing serious
bodily art, bodily injury, obstruction of justice, two counts, witness tampering,
(04:30):
two counts, commission of a violent offense in the presence
of a child. I guess the letter is the one
thing that we don't have complete clarity, right the appearances
that he had left a letter, which if he did,
wouldn't his lover have known prior to the text exchange.
(04:51):
Then that letter was destroyed and then later recovered the
picture of it. So I mean, there's some some things
that you know, need some dusting out, but that's what
the trials for. Not perfect.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
And we also haven't heard from the defense here the courts,
they're working to appoint a defense attorney for this guy,
you know, whether or not we go down the mental
if there's an insanity plea, if we start going down
that route. But we also have not heard from the defense.
So there's another court hearing on the twenty ninth. They
hope to have a lawyer for him by them.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Roy O'Neil great reporting is always we'll be back in
the third hour. I think one interesting note. I choose
to do this without Roy because I don't want to
put Ory in this position. But in the case of
the Trump first assassin, he's taken out by a sniper.
In the case of many mass shootings, they then kill themselves.
(05:44):
Don't even want to suggest it's a silver lining. But
in the case of Minneapolis and in the case of
Tyler Robinson, there's really no doubt as to what the
motive is. They make it crystal clear. In the case
of Minneapolis, was etched on the weapon, was etched on
the ammunition. In the case of Tyler Robinson and the
(06:05):
Charlie Kirk assassination, was etched down the weapon, What was
etched in the ammunition, what was texted, what was confessed
on discord. It leaves no doubt whatsoever to timeline, to motive.
The twenty minute video of the Minneapolis shooter left no question. Really.
(06:31):
The only question left was was this a very mentally
ill individual. Was this a not demonic possessed individual. But
at the root of it was transgenderism. And what we
do know is he felt duped and he didn't want
(06:52):
to live anymore. He was an unhappy transgender and for
some reason wanted to take it out on innocent children.
We talked about this yesterday. Perhaps we get Freudian, but
he was once an innocent child having a happy life
(07:12):
and felt indoctrinated and duped into being transgender. Dupe was
his word, and wanted to take it out on what
he once was innocent children. But he left no doubt
even though he took his life, he left no doubt
with all the evidence he left behind. In the case
of Tyler Robinson, he's still here. We have his letter,
(07:34):
we have his texts, we have his confessions. So we
did a piece of research yesterday. Sixty percent of the
American people think this kid was maga. There were people
on left cable networks, Jimmy Kimmel. Jimmy Kimmell gets the
award right. Jimmy Kimmel goes on Late Night and makes
(07:57):
jokes about how they're trying to distance this from being
a MAGA shooter. This is one a maga is killing
their own. Does he apologize, does he get fired? Does
he resign in shame? What was on? What was a
(08:26):
look on Jimmy Kimmel's face. Are everybody on the left
playing tug of war with the with a simple right
and wrong situation because their narratives all got shot down.
And that's just the preliminary evidence. To meet the burden
of trial. I thought about, what do I read you
(08:49):
the entire text exchange in case you missed the news conference.
I mean, we can, but it's I mean there was
actually was it CNN? No, it was ABC. ABC had
a reporter. He even presented with this crystal clear, fantastic
evidence of motive. He illuminates everything from how his politics
(09:14):
have changed, even mocks his father, who, since Trump took office,
as becoming increasingly maga. He makes it crystal clear he's
not maga. He makes it crystal clear he's driven by
transgendered love and hated for anybody that opposes it. And
some hate is so great you can't negotiate with it.
You must kill it. That's what he tells his lover.
(09:35):
There's no room to fight on any narrative hills any longer.
In the case of the Minneapolis shooter and the Charlie
Kirk assassin, they make it crystal clear who they were,
why they were, what they did, why they did it,
And now we fight over what motivated it and not
(09:57):
discussed very much, and it will pop up, I'm sure sure.
Is the state of mental illness and what happens when
a psychetric community, and a culture wants to change its
mind about something for woke's sake, political correctness sake, and
affirm such behavior and then wonder when that behavior backfires
(10:23):
what caused it? Or as I said, two things really
just kind of describe where I'm at right now, and
it's not a great place. We had a furry who
killed a godly man who was always tolerant, respectful, and
(10:46):
just trying to get America to talk again. In other words,
he was busy being the solution. And now we have
a furry in love with a transgender killing him. A
seventy one year old who first claimed to kill him,
that was taken into custody he was apparently a nut,
(11:07):
got treatment at the hospital that admitted he didn't kill him,
and then on his phone the police find child born.
It makes me afraid of what's next? Or how about
yesterday three assassins all in the news. You had Tyler
Robinson in court appearing via streaming, Luigi Manjoni, who killed
(11:29):
the CEO of United Healthcare, and Ryan Ruth, the second
assassin of Donald Trump. I mean, seriously, my father used
to say how much can a fly eat? And now
there's a tug of war. Who's gonna get Charlie Kirk's
empty chair? I want to know how Charlie Kirk became
(11:50):
such a political football, and how I'm supposed to celebrate now, Okay,
in this time of great violence, a president whose life
has been tried to be taken twice is going to
appear in one place with the vice president, with the
Secretary of State, all three planning to speak on stage.
And I'm wondering who the designated is survivor is and
(12:13):
how wise this is. Then you added that RFK Junior,
Susie Wilds, the chief of Staff, Pete Hegsept, the Secretary
of Defense, and advisor of the president Stephen Miller Don
Junior's son of the president, Tucker Carlson. Oh yeah, and
his wife gets to speak. It looks more like a
Republican convention. So we're getting your talkbacks as well. I'll
(12:34):
get to those here shortly. All right, How safe is
your retirement? Wars? Everywhere? Debt continues to skyrocket. We're about
sixty days for perhaps the government shutdown, and the dollar
keeps losing its purchasing power, the value of dollars falling
and falling fast, every day. That's why more people are
(12:55):
converting their IRA or four to one case to gold
and silver IRA to protect the retirement savings. In twenty
twenty five, both gold and silver rose an impressive twenty
nine percent, and many experts expect bigger gains ahead. Take
action now convert some of your IRA in four oh

Michael del Chono. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for
Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, being held without bond
in Utah. Authorities say the tam Man who was arrested
(14:01):
just after Charlie Kirk was assassinated. He fell medically ill,
was taken to the hospital. Then once he felt better,
said oh no, I didn't do it. Police has to
see his phone. Then he gets arrested for childborn. These
stories just keep coming in. The FED is expected to
cut interest Drakes by a quarter. Today we'll have more
(14:22):
on that with John Decker and the President is in
the UK, and boy it got heated and sounds the
day you'll hear Cash Patel go at it with a
Democrat senator. That more coming up. Can't have your morning
show without your voice. I'm want to start with I believe,
and it's a long list. Daniel, Daniel's gone. Sorry I
met that. Daniel's gone. How about Randy, I'm with you.
(14:46):
They should let Charlie Kirk's family more in his loss.
The ny should has done their part. Let them have
their peace.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
Randy True, I think you're right about Charlie Kirk. He's
been made into this right being conservative activist when more
than anything he was he was a Christian with the
Ministry for the Youth, and this is more of a
case of the Christian martyr in America than than anything else.
(15:17):
I think if Jesus had lived today and was crucified today,
he would he would have been made out to be
a conservative activist and not the figure that he was.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
That was true, by the way. And yeah, the concern
is is the life and the body of Charlie Kirk
becoming a political football, and as our attention getting further
and further away from a God who can heal this
country and more towards further political divide. I don't know
where Gary's from. We normally do the from. Yeah, we
(15:48):
got Tygary w. Lac in Nashville.
Speaker 4 (15:52):
Says, we got psychologists to get Cale is what it
really is.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
It's a bunch of that gum nut cases that have
been infiltrated our government and our social welfare system. To
Saint Louis and the patriot we go.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Hey, Michael, maybe the polls should ask the people how
they feel about assassination or murder of a political figure
instead of just the death of a political figure.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
I don't know what particular research. The research that I
went over was asking Americans specifically about political violence. Rodney,
it's the final say. I think you're spot on about
Charlie Kirk's faith. We're losing focus on what he really
stood for Christ being the answer there, and I think
we as a nation really need to turn back. Yeah.
(16:46):
We were just discussing the political matrix divide in our
country and now it's turned into a tug of war
over Charlie's life. Was he hate? Was he a martyr?
Left says that the right says martyr to visions on
the far right over who should fill his chair and
take over his mission. We're going to visit more on
that third hour with senior contributor David Sanadi about where
(17:08):
this divide continues and where it might be headed and
where we must not allow it to arrive. Missus Patrick
from Christiana, Tennessee. My morning show is your Morning Show
with Michael dill Jorno. Hey, it's me Michael. You can
(17:29):
listen to your morning show live on the air or
streaming live on your iHeart app Monday through Friday from
three to six Pacific, five to eighth Central, and six
to nine Eastern on great radio stations like Talk six
fifty KSTE and Sacramento or one oh four nine. The
Patriot in Saint Louis had to impact radio one oh
five nine and twelve fifty whd Z in Tampa, Florida.
(17:50):
Sure hope you can join us live and make us
a part of your morning routine. In the meantime, enjoy
the podcast as we've got a new question for the
talkback line. What is more beautiful imagery the way Donald
Trump was greeted in Saudi Arabia and cutter or what
we're seeing right now in the carriage procession in Windsor, England,
as the President, the first Lady and the King and
(18:15):
they make their way to the Windsor castle. I mean,
this is breathtaking. What is that about a mile of
soldiers it lined up in full uniform. The horses what
about this I'm sure it has a name, but this
guard all on black horses with the gold helmets and
the just absolutely breathtaking. As the carriages arrive, Donald Trump
is in Windsor. We'll get more from John Decker on
(18:37):
that if you're just waking up. We are expecting interest
rates to be cut today. Best estimates seem to be
a quarter of point. Maybe tomorrow we'll talk with our
money whiz David Boonson about what he thinks the impact
will be In general, and the further cuts to come
and how quickly and how it might affect mortgage rates.
Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for Charlie Kirk's asassin,
(19:00):
Tyler Robinson, being held without bond in Utah. Meanwhile, the
Utah man, the seventy one year old who was arrested
right after Charlie Kirk's assassination, claiming he did it, well,
he didn't. He got medical treatment and admitted it, and
then later they found porn on his phone. Child Born
and FBI director Cash Pttel says there's no credible information
that Jeffrey Epstein ever trafficked women to anyone besides himself,
(19:24):
and four people in the United Kingdom have been arrested
after photos of President Trump and convicted sex offender Jeffrey
Epstein were projected onto Windsor Castle that has been since
removed and the carriages are now arriving at Windsor Castle.
I don't know, John Decker, if you're anywhere near a television,
and god forbid we bring up television on the radio.
(19:46):
But these images are breathtaking.
Speaker 5 (19:49):
Well, they certainly impressed President Trump as well as First
Lady Malanias Trump. This is the second time that they
are being honored with this state visit. A first time,
of course, was in twenty nine nineteen, and that was,
of course when Queen Elizabeth the Second welcome the President
to at the time Buckingham Palace. This is at Windsor Castle,
(20:09):
and the President will spend the entire day there, finishing
out with the lavish state dinner at Windsor Castle.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
You know, I'm watching this one carriage with Trump. I
don't know if you're watching, but is that I don't
think that's Charles with the President. I think it's the Prince, right.
Speaker 5 (20:27):
I'm watching it and at the angle that I have
is sort of from behind, so I can't really tell
who's with President Trump. But that would not be surprising
to me in the sense that the Prince and Princess
of Wales were initially welcoming President Trump and the First
Lady to Windsor Castle.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah. There our five carriages, I believe in all, and
they have arrived at Windsor Castle and it is just breathtaking.
All right, we are expecting interest rate cuts today. The
question is how big? And then how many more are
to follow before the end of the year.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
Yeah, the expectation is a quarter point interest rate cut
by the Fed as they conclude their two day meeting.
And then the big question is do they lower interest
rates two more times? They meet once more in October,
another time in December. They do not meet in November,
So that's the big question that the markets will be
looking at, is whether or not the feed continues these
(21:21):
interest rate cuts through the remainder of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
This is some of the President's been pushing for and
felt like should have happened a long time ago. Here's
the tug of war on this one. There are some
and this is probably opinion, but kind of uncertainty created
by tariffs that kind of make inflation look like it's
not necessarily stable. The other side is we had to
(21:48):
adjust jobs nine hundred thousand plus from the Biden administration's projections. Therefore,
that's a lot of new real information for this board
to act on. One looks like they will lower even
more in October December, and one says they may have
a little bit of a wait and see of how
these cuts are playing out. Is that a pretty good read?
Speaker 5 (22:12):
Well, it is, you know, I think they want to
see the impact of an interest rate cut that happens today.
They also want to see what happens as far as
the employment picture is concerned in the months that follow
You know, are we going to see this slowdown that
we've seen over the course of the summer, including last month,
in terms of jobs creation in the US If that continues,
(22:34):
then maybe we do continue to see further interest rate
cuts between now and the end of twenty twenty five,
perhaps two more during their next two meetings.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
All right, John Decker, White House Correspondent joining us. The
President has made this a centerpiece of his plan. Why
is this so important to the president? What will these
cuts mean to him?
Speaker 5 (22:54):
Well, it's important because he believes that the one sector
of the US economy that is not really seeing the
kind of growth that we've seen in other sectors of
the economy is the housing market. And by cutting interest rates,
it would have a trickle down effect on mortgage rates,
and that could in turn lead to refinancings. It could
(23:14):
also lead to an increase in home buying across the country,
spurring that sector of the economy and helping out the
overall US economy going forward. So that's the reason why
the President has really been pushing for interest rates over
the course of the past few months.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
I talked about this with Rory yesterday. But there's a
lot of people that were paying for inflation with high
interest credit card and then they were using the equity
in their home because they certainly couldn't sell it. Yeah,
you'd get top dollar for it, but then you go
pay higher dollar at a higher interest rate for something new,
so that kind of squeezed in the inventory. A lot
of those people have now turned to helocks or second mortgages,
(23:53):
and they're going to be interested in refinancing when the
number the mortgage rate gets to a certain point. I
don't think it's high fives, but if it gets to
low fives or high fours, then I think you really
see the movement that they're looking for. But nobody seems
to know what that magic number is. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (24:10):
Maybe the FED chairman has an idea, maybe other FED
governors have an idea about what the magic number is.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
But you know, it's really there's no expert on this.
Speaker 5 (24:21):
You know, you really do have to gauge what the
impact of interest rate cuts will be on the overall economy,
the global economy as well, and that's what the fed's
job is, that's what their purpose is, and that as
a result, you know, I think it's important to see
what Jerome Pal's remarks are after he likely will announce
this interest rate cut today at two pm Eastern time.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
You know, it seems like after debates we have open
spin rooms, unapologetic spin rooms. You never get that with John.
You want to know the very latest in the White
House reaction to the very latest, you need to listen
to the White House Briefing Room and the podcast will
be up at nine eastern eight Central this morning, and
you can hear more from j on there at the
White House Briefing Room. You'll find it on the iHeart
(25:03):
app and go ahead and give that a preset, just
like you do your morning show. That way you have
easy access every day. Thank you so much. John. All right,
it is forty two minutes after the hour. I want
to do good waiting on the consequence.
Speaker 6 (25:15):
It is the best way to get back on your favors,
to get.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Up off your app. I've been living rent free in
that guy's head for years and that's just a bum.
Speaker 6 (25:22):
Do you go that chicken and add they're just blowing
off Steve.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
We got some cash, mittel for you, and sounds of
the day, always revealing, often entertaining. Yesterday we had Harry
Entton walking through and look if sadly I am correct
and Charlie Kirk's life, legacy and now remains are a
political football. There's a good reason why, politically.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
So.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Yesterday, Harry Anton lays out how eighteen to twenty four
year olds thirty four percent voted for Trump in twenty sixteen,
thirty one percent in twenty twenty, forty three percent in
twenty twenty four. Make no mistake about it. Democrats have
been using out of state, in state students on campuses
(26:08):
to swing elections, and Charlie Kirk changed that and he
delivered the young vote. Now, they were already struggling with
a bad candidate. They're already struggling with a very divided party,
unenergized party. Heck, the socialist Democrats are trying to take
over the party. They had lost and hemorrhage black vote,
(26:31):
and they had lost the voting block of Hispanic votes.
This was just the knockout blow. Charlie Kirk was a
big deal because he delivered big election results and the
right wants to keep that for the midterms in the
twenty twenty eights, and the left wants to seize that back.
(26:56):
Didn't get a chance in time yesterday play this, but
here's the second half of that story from Harry in Listen.
This is really significant.
Speaker 7 (27:02):
When we dig into the numbers a little bit deeper,
we can see even more of the influence of Charlie Kirk.
What are we talking about, Well, let's take a look
at males under the age of twenty five, that is,
age eighteen to twenty four year old males presidential margin.
You go back to twenty sixteen, Hillary Clinton easily won
that vote by eleven points. You jump ahead to twenty twenty,
you can see Joe Biden nearly double Clinton's margin, won
(27:23):
by an even larger margin.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
I want to stop right there, eighteen to twenty four
year old males, because there's only two ways to look
at that. In twenty sixteen, Hillary was plus eleven. In
twenty twenty virtually doubled that. Biden was plus twenty. Is
that young males not willing to vote for a woman,
(27:49):
or is that the shadow campaign to save the democracy,
the weaponizing of COVID, the changing of election laws, unconstitutionally
and not going through state legislatures and the ability to
create and harvest ballots. I guess we'll never know. But
whether it was plus eleven for Hillary or plus twenty
(28:09):
for Biden, what was it for Trump? In twenty twenty
four post Charlie Kirk's campus influence listen margin.
Speaker 7 (28:16):
Look at this a twenty point win for Joe Biden. Well,
look at this past presidential election. Donald Trump actually won
males under the age of twenty five. He won him
by three points, and in doing so, became the first
Republican nominee for president to win males under the age
of twenty five this entire century.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
And tragically, Charlie Kirk would be killed by a male
between eighteen and twenty four years old. Well, if you
think we only fight on the internet, I mean, if
you think it only gets vicious in the courtroom public opinion,
No cash Mattel, head of FBI, squaring off. What's the
(29:04):
what's the I can't remember his name. I just went
blank on the senator's name from California, Adam Adam Chef. Thanks, Well,
I was blissed there for a second, but thanks. Here's
how that exchange went you're not answering my question.
Speaker 7 (29:20):
We have countlessly proven you to be a lawyer in Russia.
Speaker 5 (29:23):
Game in January.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
Brought to ever States Senate disgrace and an utter coward.
I'm not. It's nice to see we're finding common ground.
Speaking of that. Senator John Fetterman, Democrat from Pennsylvania, joined
(29:52):
Dave McCormick, Republican Senator from Pennsylvania on Fox Special Report
with host Brett Pere to discuss the assassinate of Charlie Kirk,
and Fetterman barned crystal clear on the dangers of rhetoric. Now,
the scary part is he's one of few. Now, look,
(30:12):
there are some people, there are a lot of Democrats
who have come forward and denounced the killing of Charlie Kirk,
but not many are open and willing to give up
any political ground. That the rhetoric is insightful, that the
rhetoric must stop. And Fetterman has been one of those
lone voices.
Speaker 8 (30:31):
Listen, ever, ever, ever, compare anyone to Hitler. If not,
go online and you can read up on exactly what
he's responsible for. You know, seventy five to eighty million
lives lost in World War Two, and you don't compare
him to anyone, and if you do, then you will
incite somebody to say, well, now I feel like I
have to stop that and take them out. People have
(30:54):
seemed to forgotten that the president took a shot to
the to the and can you imagine if that shot
would have gone the way Charlie Kirk's one, and what
kind of condition our nation would be? And this is
such a dangerous time right now, and now why you
don't need this an opportunity to share your opinions on it?
(31:16):
Just again, it's appalling and allow folks enough space to grieve.
The man hasn't even buried yet. And it's like, that's
why we wanted to have a conversation, that we have
to find a way to work together.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
You know, it seems like I'm always constantly having a
love fest the senator Fetterman. He just continually shines verbally
in the courtroom a public opinion. It was nice for
me to finally hear somebody say what I'm feeling. No,
(31:55):
we can't continue to fight this way. We need to
return to being a united country. Americans. First, it's okay
to have disagreements, significant disagreements, it's not okay to name Colin,
it's not okay to shoot. That should be obvious, But
(32:18):
Senator Fetterman was the first one to basically say, this
guy's named Medeta week he all but said, where's our
funeral etiquette? Nobody is he said, nobody's dying for your opinion.
(32:40):
A believer, a husband, a father was violently killed for
doing something constitutionally not only celebrated, but quite frankly doing
it in the most tolerant and respectful way. But can't
(33:00):
we stay focused on him, celebrate his life, pray for
his wife and children, his mother and father, be respectful?
Can't we stay in mourning? This is already a food fight,
a free for all. It's a political football. It's nice
(33:22):
to know Senator Fetterman at least gets it. It's always
tough to be Scott Jennings and have four women attacking
you at once. But here's how their exchange went yesterday
after the revealing text messages were read in court.
Speaker 9 (33:36):
So why is it acceptable to use this moment to
argue that somebody, a sick individual who committed a horrific crime,
is Somehow are you here to argue for his sanity?
Speaker 6 (33:46):
I'm here to argue. All I know was what the
prosecutor said today. He read very lucid messages from a
shooter who was motivated by political hate, who had a
plan to get away with it. He did not sound
like a deranged person. He sounded like someone who had
decided to take it upon himself to rid the world
of someone that he hated politically, that he thought that
(34:08):
the world would be better off without that.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
That's different.
Speaker 8 (34:12):
Showing up off this.
Speaker 9 (34:13):
His actions were horrific. But to assign, to assign the
specific hateful, violent, awful actions of somebody on an individual
on the right or an individual.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
On the left, I don't know that.
Speaker 9 (34:26):
Political conversation and incredibly dangerous and irresponsible in this model.
Speaker 6 (34:30):
Well, I think it's dangerous and irresponsible for nobody to
take responsibility for ten years of the use of the
language fascism, authoritarian, so on and so forth.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
It's on the bullet case.
Speaker 9 (34:42):
I have seen nothing but Democrats in the wake of
this murder saying that it was awful.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
You've seen nothing.
Speaker 9 (34:48):
I have seen them elected democrats. I have seen them
saying nothing but it was horrific. That they condemn it,
that they are sorry for his family that this is
an awful moment in the country.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Well, that's not my lean. Omar is being censured today.
I'll remind her she's seen nothing. I will say something.
It ends with another woman, I don't remember what her
name was. Reading this out of context in his defense
but relatable quote, and of course it was from Scott
(35:21):
Jennings after another shot and again you can go too
far or go too far too fast, just for your
sake and my sake. Let me make it clear to
my audience, even more so after yesterday Tyler James Robinson
killed Charlie Kirk. Tyler James Robinson has been charged with
(35:46):
aggravated murder and will face the death sentence. Now there's
some other things to discuss in an unhealthy country. That's
the one who did it careful trying to use words
like they and your prosecution. We're all in this together.
