Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, I'm Michael.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
We'd love to have you listen every weekday morning to
your morning show live, even take us along with you
on the drive to work. We can be heard on
great radio stations like one oh four nine The Patriot
in Saint Louis, Our Talk Radio ninety eight point three
and fifteen ten WLAC and Nashville, and News Talk five
fifty k f YI in Phoenix, Arizona. Love to be
a part of your morning routine, but we're always grateful
(00:21):
you're here.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Now. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Well two three starting your morning off right.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
A new way of talk, a new way.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Of understanding because we're in the skyholder. This is your morning.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Show with Michael gil John Ah, the Golden Tones of
Mike mccannon. Thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Seven minutes after the hour, Good morning, and welcome to Friday,
September to the twenty sixth year of our Lord, twenty
twenty five. On the air and streaming live on your
iHeartRadio app. This is your morning show. Jeffreys got the sound,
I got the content. An honor to serve you. I'm
Michael del jorna House Minority leader Hakeem Jeffrey speaking out
against the indictment of form our FBI director James call me.
(01:03):
We also have Pete Hegseth with a top secret I
mean he has ordered hundreds of US admirals in generals
from around the world back home for a top secret meeting.
And do we know any more about the shooter in
the ice shooting in Dallas. Starbucks is planning a restructuring,
a one billion dollar restructuring plan.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
It probably means a lot less cafes.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
But Roy O'Neil or your Warning show correspondent is here
with the latest. Done all three of those top stories,
I guess we could let's start with Starbucks. What's going
on there?
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Yeah, it's a billion dollar shakeup, as he set a
trimming of the fat a little bit. They're really trying
to start to juice profit. Sales have been pretty flat
for six straight quarters now in the sales lump, especially
here in the US. So they're going to start by
closing about five hundred stores nationally and about nine hundred
non retail workers are getting laid off. This is an
(02:00):
addition to the thousand or so who were cut earlier
this year. Remember Starbucks got a new CEO about a
year ago. A year and a half ago. Brian Nickel
the new guy in charge. He came over from Chipotle.
He saw a huge success at Chipotle. They're hoping that
he can be as successful with Starbucks to really start
making it more profitable.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Some of the shareholders are saying things have been too flat.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Is there any way to blame this on Doze or
the president?
Speaker 1 (02:26):
I guess we'll wait and see.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Are these going to be primarily we could go with
tariffs on coffee?
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Coffee, I know on the cops that they write on.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
No, but I mean, how many of these are going
to be those standalones that seem to do a lot
better than the ones inside Target or inside Kroger.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Yes, so they're yeah, we haven't seen that specific breakdown,
but it's about it's only about a one percent cut
of the store, so it really overall it's not that significant.
It's about five hundred total closures from the company owned
stores to the ones that are franchised out like that.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
All right, we don't know a lot about the shooter
other than he didn't like Ice and then in a
letter he didn't like the federal government as a whole.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
What do we make of this? Right?
Speaker 4 (03:12):
That's part of this ongoing investigation. We did get an
update from the FBI that talked about how the shooter
sought to terrorize Ice that was in some of the
comments that were left behind in letters. But he also
said that good luck finding my digital footprint, essentially suggesting
that there isn't a whole lot to find online about
this guy's background, certainly not any good pictures.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
We got only just that one. Call me this indictment.
You know, he either did or didn't lie under under
oath to Congress. We'll find that out or probably just
you know, this indictment comes in a very favorable district
(03:53):
of northern Virginia for him, and all it takes is
one favorable juror. I mean, he either perjured himself or
he didn't. But I don't see this going anywhere where,
am I wrong?
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Yeah, it's a little thin, uh, you know, And we've
seen some talk depending exactly as to how this evidence
is presented. Like two things could be true that McCabe
could have authorized the leak and he didn't know about
it or did or Yeah, so we'll have to see
how the timeline breaks down. But you know, I think
the larger issue is it looks like again, it looks
(04:26):
it appears has the appearance of President Trump ordering his
political enemy to get indicted.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Well, but but rory the right and then the right.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
The right is no better right because I know that
a lot on the right are frustrated. We know what
they did, uh to go after Trump and probably crossed
a lot of lines, and they want to see somebody.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Pay for it. You suspect what they did?
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Well, No, I'm talking about people on the right say
they know and they want something. You know, I'm trying
to I'm kind of meeting you in the middle. The
rights wanting to fight, I fight and get justice for
the past, and the left want to fight and fight,
fight and stop what's coming. And I think it'd be
an all of our best interests probably to all move
on dot org, especially while the tenchans are so high
(05:12):
and shootings are taking place.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Right.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
We all suspect what happened when President Trump was out
of office in Russia Gate and all that.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
We suspect what happened there.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
But here it is in black and white, with the
President on true social telling the Attorney General you know,
where are my inditements? He fires the guy who wouldn't
bring him in titement and then appoints his defense attorney,
who has no experience as a prosecutor, to come in
and file the charge. So I mean, again, we suspect
what happened before, but here it is in this case now,
you know, pretty.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Black and white.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
And I'm surprised I haven't great reporting by the fastest
land animal. I threw so much at you, I wanted
to give you one easy one that was that was
a airplanes airplanes to airplane too. Uh No, you're right
to point all of that out.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
I think you know the president.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
I'm surprised I haven't gotten more angry emails from listeners
thinking I'm turning on the president, and I'm not.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
I'm in full support of the president.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
And in some ways, deep down, I'm looking forward to
a successful handoff and a next president. But yeah, he's
wrong to do all that, you know, when when the
way I was phrasing it is why are you handing
them their narrative on a silver platter like that?
Speaker 1 (06:30):
And so that's why I can't shoot Rory.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Down for saying that it's a statement of truth. People
are suspected, and I suspect greatly that they used federal
agencies in law fair for the purposes of determining an election.
That's a big deal. And I get just as mad
(06:54):
as everyone else. But there are a lot of people
on the right are done being mad. And if they're gonna,
you know, charge you and they're gonna drag you in
court and make you defend yourself, do it to them too.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
And then somebody's got to just say, well, wait time out.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
While we're letting all this partisan warfare go on, nuts
are watching, incited with accelerant in the idiocy of social media,
are out shooting people.
Speaker 5 (07:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
This is a moment of pause, if you will. Now.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
The latest, of course, is the government shut down. This
one I love so Rasmussen does a poll. Assuming the
government shuts down, who are you gonna blame? That's why
I would asking Roy, we went too long, I couldn't
finish with us. But thirty eight percent of likely US
(07:56):
voters say if the government shuts down, Democrats in Congress
will be the most to blame. Because that's really the
current you know what peing match the president saying I
don't need to meet with you. Do your job. That's
Congress's job. To fund the government. It's my job to
(08:18):
execute fund the government. And if you don't, well great,
I'm going to shut the government down and I'm going
to get rid of all these jobs I've been trying
to get rid of.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
A little shot across the bow.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
So meanwhile, you've got the far far left, crazy base.
It's even got a former presidential candidate, Kamala Harris endorsing
Mom Donnie, who we think is an Islamist for sure,
and a communist and socialist for sure. So I always
talk to you about that civil war within the Democrat Party. Well,
(08:52):
it's in a sense been one by the extreme far left,
and they have convinced the party as a whole to
fight fight fight fight.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Fight.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Fight means you shut the government down, you don't give
him his budget. Fight fight fight means you blame everything
on the president. Jimmy Kimmel says something stupid. Jimmy Kimmel
has no ratings, no revenue. Disney pulls the plug, you
blame it on the president. You make it all up
First Amendment issue. You just fight fight, fight chaos. Even
(09:20):
the shootings are a part of fight fight fight. So
this is the current standoff, and when it happens. Do
you think we live in a matrix? Thirty eight percent
will likely blame the Democrats in Congress, Twenty nine percent
think congressional Republicans would deserve the blame. Twenty one percent
(09:41):
say they'll blame Donald Trump. Twelve percent say they're honest,
not sure, but I blame somebody.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
This is what we become.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
This is This isn't gridlock, This is dysfunction, and this
isn't opposition. This is starting to look combative with gunshots
(10:16):
coming from the audience watching it all. I did something yesterday,
and that's why we have the podcast. You can always
go back and listen to Thursday. And I don't remember
what hour I did it in. I think it might
have been the first hour. We're playing a much higher
(10:38):
stakes January sixth game right now. You see, Nancy Pelosi
knew it was coming, and she told everybody to stand down.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
She wanted it.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
That was far more herb goading the president into that.
That wasn't insurrection, that was, you know, a government surrection.
And Donald Trump's speech played right into her hands, just
like his speech recently of I.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Want to get you know, Pam Bonni, I want to
dte these enemies.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Why And I'm just making the case so you can
see play calls balls and strikes.
Speaker 6 (11:13):
Here.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
That's the president trying to please the far right, who
are saying, I'm sick of all the talk due to them,
what they did to you. I want to see people
pay for this. They cheated and stolen election. Start sending
some people to jail. They harassed you, it led to
an assassination, attempt to send him to jail. He's hearing that.
I know I deal with those people. And if Comy
(11:39):
was in jail today, are you any safer from a
left radicalized whether it's transgender or anti Republican or anti
government shooter. I'm not having any problem with the things
that the president is doing, but he's getting back to
(12:01):
Trump one point zero and saying the wrong things wrong
only in the sense of it's playing right into their
narrative hands. You do realize it was only what five
days ago we were watching the memorial service of Charlie Kirk.
(12:22):
That seems like an eternity go, doesn't it. That's so
Kimmel government shutdown, I shoot her in the past. That's
the game they're playing.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
This is Your Morning Show with Michael del Chrono.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Good morning, Michael.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yeah, the shooter's digital footprint might be hard to find,
but his sister's yikes, let's just say she's a content.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Creator on certain adult platforms.
Speaker 7 (12:52):
Have a good morning.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Does that mean she's a porn star or like one
of those Olean fans onlyfan.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
That's kind of what I was taking to dash shoes
on that only fan side. Ooh, I'm trying to find it.
That's a big good bump for her career.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Official say a note found at the residence of the
suspected gunman's house is giving them some clues he was
wanting to create terror.
Speaker 8 (13:16):
The acting US Attorney for North of Texas says a
note found that the residents of the suspected gunmen said
he wanted to cause terror for agents. He shooting left
one detain a dead and two others injured. Other notes
found indicated he acted alone and included anti Ice and
Andi government rhetoric. Twenty nine year old Joshua Yan was
found dead from a self inflicted gunshot wound on the
roof of an apartment building across from the facility. The
(13:38):
FBI said the gun used was legally obtained by Yan.
I'm mark Mayfield. Well, it's unprecedented. I mean, you could
issue a memo if it was budget cuts.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
But Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is ordering hundreds of US
admirals and generals from all over the world to gather
in Virginia.
Speaker 9 (13:53):
The meeting is reportedly expected to take place at a
military installation in Quanticole, but what it's about is unclear.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
It could be anything from a.
Speaker 9 (14:01):
Group of physical fitness test to a briefing on the
current state of the Defense Department, or a mass firing.
Haiksath has said he wants to cut around twenty percent
of senior generals and admirals.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
I'm Jim Roope. Well, you know the marching orders of
the left. Fight, Fight, Fight.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
A Democratic congresswoman is announcing plans to introduce articles of
impeachment against Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Kennedy Junior.
Speaker 10 (14:25):
Michigan Congresswoman Haley Stevens shared a post on x citing
healthcare chaos, reckless cuts, and rising costs is the reason
she's drafting the motion. Stevens has repeatedly called for Kennedy's
removal from his role since he became Health secretary. The
move comes as major medical organizations continue to speak out
against recent federal health policies and recommendations. I'm Tammy Trhio.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
People cried for help. What are they crying for? But
Ava did not come.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
A new trailer is out for the upcoming Avatar Fire
and Ash. The footage shows Jake Scully and his family
at war with the enemy Nave tribe in the world
of Pandora. The first Avatar released in two thousand and nine,
It still holds the title as the highest grossing worldwide
film ever with over two billion dollars. Twenty twenty two
sequel The Way of Water stands as the third highest
(15:20):
grossing film of all time. The cast includes Sam Worthington,
so He's Zaldnni Zaldana, Zigourney Weaver, Kate Winslet, Michelle Yo.
Avatar Fire and Ash do out in theaters on December nineteenth.
Well Today is Shammoo Day Shammoo the Whale, celebrating the
magnificent creatures of the ocean. Bree Tennis has more on
(15:43):
a sad story with a better ending.
Speaker 11 (15:45):
Shamoo was the first orca at SeaWorld San Diego in
nineteen sixty five, purchased for five thousand dollars. A park
then turned Shamou into a brand with Orca shows. Visitors
could see the killer whales interact with staff and breach,
drenching fans in the soak zone more to celebrate with
a birth of baby Shamoo at the park September twenty sixth,
(16:07):
nineteen eighty five. The Yorca shows ended in twenty seventeen,
replaced with educational programs. Today, the park is encouraging donations
to conservation as the apex predators are now endangered. I'm
pree Tennis.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Did we ever confirm that that's what Michael Jackson was singing? Shamoo?
I've got a cute up if you want to know. Yeah,
let's hear it's cham chamont, chamont or shamoo.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
It's more like a come on, But he missareliest embarrassing
liais to sing sing shamoo.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Hi.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
I'm actress Lisa Varga and my morning show is your
Morning Show with Michael Del Giorno.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
Hi, it's me Michael.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Your Morning Show can be heard on great stations across
the country like Talk Radio eleven ninety in Dallas, Sport Worth,
Freedom one oh four point seven, and Washington and five
point fifty k f YI and Phoenix, Arizona. We'd love
to be a part of your morning routine or take
us along. I'm the drive to work, but as we
always say, better late than never. Enjoy the podcast. We
are limping along without Red this week. I say limping along.
(17:14):
I think I filled in very well for I think
you've done a great job with the exception of you
second guessing my Spotlight Interview of the Week. I never
second guessed it, but I would like to congratulate you.
Are you ready for this? I did some research during
the break. Yeah, Michael Jackson can be heard singing shamone. Okay, now,
I've been singing at shamou for years, thinking it was
the whale, shamone and several hit songs, including Bad, Black
(17:40):
and White and Man in the Mirror. The word is
a signature vocal embellishment, where he's essentially singing come on,
but doing it in his own unique embellished way.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
So you were right? Were you guessing or did your research? Though?
Speaker 6 (17:56):
No?
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I mean these are things I know. I played all
these songs when they were new.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Oh and while you were playing it, you knew when
he said chemon he was saying, come on, what I
thought it was a mispronunciation?
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yeah, let me hear it up right there. I can't
hear all right, well, your research is good, but now your.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
D jaying stakes well, I mean on the fly. So yeah,
shem on, he's really saying come on. I didn't know
he did in three songs. I thought he really liked
that whale. I really did a lot of words. Thirty
seven minutes after the hour, House Minority of the leader
Hakim Jeffrey's playing politics with the indictment of FBI Director
James come because he believes Donald Trump's playing politics?
Speaker 1 (18:47):
What's up with pete? Hegsep.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Why is he ordering hundreds of admirals in generals from
around the world to come to Virginia. They can't do
that on a zoom call like we do. And three
really big games college football this weekend, the biggest six
versus three, Oregon and Penn State. Plus we got lsu Ole,
Miss Bama and Georgia. Lots of football to watch, unless,
of course, you are White House correspondent John Decker. No
(19:11):
football Saturday, that's beneath you. You're on Air Force one
today heading to Beth Page for the Ryder Cup. I'm
so jealous. Good morning, Hey, good morning.
Speaker 5 (19:21):
But I'm still gonna watch college football tomorrow. That doesn't
well I did for tomorrow. I we got we got
Alabama Georgia, we got the LSU game, we got Oregon
Penn State.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
We got some good games tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
At my mom's nursing home, the head of nursing on
the floor that she's on was a wide receiver for
Old Miss. He's a terrific guy, Billy boy I was.
I was jawing him up good yesterday because this is
a this is a pretty solid LSU team, an LSU
team that, when they're solid, struggles against Mississippi State usually
and gets bid, not Old Miss. But yeah, we look
(19:53):
forward to that Ryder Cup beth Page. I played it
nine over this morning on my simulated game. But I've
always just wanted to go to a Ryder Cup, and
you get to do it today.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, I do.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
I'll travel with the President this morning up to Bethpage,
New York, a Long Island, New York.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Huge crowds anticipated.
Speaker 5 (20:11):
I would also imagine incredible security given that the President
will be there. The President loves golf, It's his favorite sport.
I would not be surprised if the President gives a
pep talk to the US team taking on the Europeans
today and for the next two days beyond that at.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
The Ryder Cup. Hey don't say that lightly.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
When last time he came into Yankee Stadium gave a
pep talk to the Yankees and we're now tied for
the division lead with three games to go, they're probably
going to end up winning the division And it all
turned around and the Bats came alive that night. Judge
got two home runs. His pep talk could be the
difference in the Ryder Cup. All right, So what do
(20:50):
we think Pete Hegsath is up to. This can't be
just cuts ken it. I mean, that could be done
in a memo.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
It could be done in a memo. I don't know.
I know, there's so much speculation.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
I'm getting calls, emails, text messages from literally all over
the world asking what this is all about.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
And I do not know. I do not know why
this is this event. I guess you can call it.
Speaker 5 (21:14):
This meeting is scheduled for Quantico, with all of America's
top flag officers around the world attending, so a lot
of planning for this, and and the President asked about
this yesterday. He didn't he didn't make much of it.
But I think it's pretty unusual, as you that's the
reason why you're talking about it too.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Yeah, well, I think.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
I mean, I'm wondering if that's the message they're trying
to send to Putin, make him wonder what are we
up to? Is this going to be a war escalation?
Is this going to be a D Day? Or you know, no,
who knows, but you know, it's like we always say,
if you're going to have a major announcement, it better
be a major announcement. I guess, you know, if they
were coordinating something of a major military you know, reasoning,
(22:02):
that would be done a little more stealth. So don't
I don't know what this is and why they're allowing it.
I mean, you would think that if it got out
and people are speculating big things, you would put that
to rest. But we just don't know. Are they gonna
tell us after what it was?
Speaker 5 (22:17):
I hope, so, I hope, So, you know, will there
be leaks? You know, if indeed there isn't an official
statement that's put out by the Pentagon, by the Department
of War, I do not know, so I'll be following
that closely seeing what I learn. And perhaps I have
an opportunity today to ask the President about that on
the flight up or on the flight back from the
(22:38):
Ryder Cup in New York.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
And I you know, just some basic etiquette. You know,
you can say you're a friend, and then you can
be a friend. If there's like a Ryder Cup hat,
a T shirt, something I've only wanted to go my
entire life, it'd be a nice gesture.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Put it on the President's credit card. Yeah, that's right.
Get the opportunity.
Speaker 5 (23:01):
If they let us go to the gift shop, I'll
spend somebody and I'll get you a hat for sure.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Go USA, Go Tigers. All right, John Decker, have a
great weekend.
Speaker 12 (23:09):
Thank you people who majored in online activision with a
minor and puberty block.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
They're gonna a little bit.
Speaker 7 (23:17):
Yi.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
You in the media clearly missed the art of the deal.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
It's going to work out.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
I guess I have to.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
Kamala Harris's to start off our Sounds of the Day.
One is the rebirth of the word salad. It's back
as she's on her book tour. Unfortunately, this audio is
someone that's at the public appearance, which I think was
a book reading slash interview in Q and A.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
So if you'll.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Forgive the audio, here's Kamala. She's still got it.
Speaker 13 (23:49):
I have a vision and we need today steal the.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
Post today, and.
Speaker 13 (24:00):
We really have to emphasize what we're doing today to
help people today.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
You know.
Speaker 13 (24:05):
One of the things to play about you done in
differently when we did remember the build back better and
and and and the interesting with the infrastructure deals with
the Chips.
Speaker 10 (24:15):
Act, I would have I would've reversed it.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
I would've done the piece.
Speaker 13 (24:20):
That we had on families first, which was about extending
the child tax credit and.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
Affordable child care and a paying family.
Speaker 13 (24:27):
You know, it would have addressed an immediate issue MS.
Speaker 10 (24:32):
And I think that that's really important.
Speaker 13 (24:33):
That's what we think about if to the extent that
we are demanding policy.
Speaker 9 (24:39):
And we're thinking about policy fools who.
Speaker 8 (24:41):
Could run for office.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Uh.
Speaker 14 (24:42):
The second point I've made about the future is I'm
really exhausted.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Frankly, a good.
Speaker 13 (24:48):
Political contry around this whole discussion about.
Speaker 8 (24:52):
Waiting for the Messiah.
Speaker 13 (24:54):
Yeah, you know, right way, even then there's one or
come on, there are swee have so many stars?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Oh yes, the Democrats have so many stars. And she
still thinks she's the biggest. And that's the bottom line
of that sound. That's the bottom line of this book tour,
which is really interesting. And I just want to be
the one person to make this simple observation. Usually a
(25:25):
serious candidate for president comes out with a book right
before the campaign is announced, because what you're basically giving
everybody that's going to work on the website, everybody that's
going to work in all the campaign offices, and certainly
for the messaging of the campaign trail, the structure for
everything you plan to do. Only Kamala Harris if in fact,
(25:49):
and I think it's obvious. It was obvious when she
didn't run for governor in California. She's going to run
for president again, and she's going to lose again. I
don't know somebody else will pick her up as vice
president again, but she's definitely gonna lose as a candidate again.
But only Kamala Harris would launch her presidential campaign with
(26:12):
a book about why she lost. And if she's talking
about being focused on today in order to meet the
needs of tomorrow, why is all she's talking about is
what happened a year ago and why she lost. I
(26:34):
mentioned earlier that we have gone from you know, partisan
politics to dysfunction. This would be a great example on
the view she's asked if she can think of because
I remember as a child, well shortly before my birth,
(26:57):
I don't think we've had a more conservative president the
John F. Kennedy in my lifetime. Reagan was close, but
he was influenced by Kennedy. Trump was close, but he
was influenced by Reagan and Kennedy. You do know one
of the most central things that we fight.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
About is maga make America great again?
Speaker 2 (27:22):
And do you know that wasn't even started by Ronald Reagan,
let alone Donald Trump. The point is, when I was young,
the difference between a Democrat and a Republican was never
on essential things, never on faith, never on family, never
(27:43):
on country first.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Minor issues.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Now you ask somebody that was vice president of the
United States who plans to run for president again, can.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
She think of one thing that Donald Trump is doing
that is good? And she can't.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Do you think that there's anything he's done right since
coming back into office?
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Does anything come to me? You know, nothing comes to mind.
Speaker 14 (28:14):
You, Well, I can leave it at that, but let
me just say that I'm sure there are some things.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
I'm sure there are, but I could never say it
out loud. That's not differing. That's a war. They couldn't
if they were held under a bright light in a torture,
say one good thing about Donald Trump. Gosh, I hope
(28:44):
we're not like this. I hope we weren't like this
with Barack Obama. Oh I know I wasn't because I
would say some good things.
Speaker 14 (28:53):
But the reality is he is just strying our government.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
I mean, that's it.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Governor says, that's the tone in America today. I don't
know how do we get how we get to unity?
We can't even dare, I'm guessing. When she was asked
that question, a couple of things came to mind, and
the reason she wanted to leave it at nothing was
(29:22):
she couldn't dare say it. When we last saw James Comy,
he was spelling out eighty six, which, for those of
you that come from the restaurant business, to eighty six something,
especially in FBI terms, is to take it out. So
he's standing taking a picture with shells that he claims
(29:44):
he just walked by and saw he may have or
he may have arranged them. Either way, What kind of
a moron who ran the FBI acts like he doesn't
know what eighty six forty seven means or how insensitive
that is to a forty seven who was a centimeter
(30:04):
away from being killed. Everything about James Coley makes my
discernment alarms go off.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
And now the he's indicted. This is as much a
visual as an audio.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
You got to see him like with this real close
up in his tie, and here's this creepy guy.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
And here's his message.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
As if, like January sixth, the president just walked nothing.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
They did.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Nothing they did that should be held accountable. Nothing they
did in the past that matters. Just this president targeting enemies.
He placed the tyrant card.
Speaker 6 (30:45):
My family and I have known for years that there
are costs to standing up to Donald Trump, but we
couldn't imagine ourselves living any other way. We will not
live on our knees and you shouldn't either. Somebody that
I I love dearly recently said that fear is the
tool of a tyrant, and she's right. But I'm not afraid,
(31:09):
and I hope you're not either, I hope instead, you
are engaged, you are paying attention, and you will vote
like your beloved country depends upon which it does. My
heart is broken for the Department of Justice, but I
have great confidence in the federal judicial system and I'm innocent.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
So let's have a trial first.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Charlie Kirk wasn't the victim. Jimmy Kimmel was. Now James
cole Mey is. And this is the checkmate we were
describing yesterday. Whatever the President does one step forward or
one step towards justice, they'll just renarrativize it. That's not justice.
(31:58):
Never mind the murderers and the rape that have been deported.
He's sending firefighters, innocent Americans, splitting up families. This is
what a president does to people that disagree with them.
He deports them. Jimmy Kimmel didn't have no ratings and
no revenue and said something really inaccurate and really insensitive.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
No, the president silencing his enemies.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
Cony didn't pursure himself. And of course he releases a
video like this because he knows they're gonna stack all.
It's gonna take a slip in one person in a
very favorable Northern Virginia courtroom into that jury. Look, if
you can steal an election, they can get call me off,
(32:47):
and then they'll all say, this is the president trying
to jail his enemies, but he failed. And I'm not
so much worried that they're turning the narrative towards a
victory in the midterms in twenty twenty eight, though they may.
I'm worried as they do this, how the right will
(33:08):
respond and if we're closer to a civil war, and
when it comes to one senator, a Democrat in Connecticut,
it really doesn't matter if the left is creating shooters,
it's still the president's fault.
Speaker 15 (33:22):
Asking about the shooting in Dallas yesterday, two people killed,
another injured, and some of the rhetoric we've been talking
about this morning, Vice President Vance immediately at an event
blaming the left, blaming Democrats before the before we had
all the information, certainly did the same after the horrific
assassination of Charlie Kirk. Leadership in these moments, I'm thinking
about you, after Sandy Hook nearly thirteen years ago, how
(33:45):
important is it for leaders, especially at the very very
top of the.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
Government, to set the tone list.
Speaker 12 (33:50):
It should not matter whether the radicalization comes from the
right or the left, or you know, sort of the
non ideological, convenient recissness of the internet.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
This president, this vice president.
Speaker 12 (34:01):
Has had a chance now since the assassination Charlie Hurt,
to bring the country together, to try to stamp out
all sorts of violence, including political violence.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
And they refuse to do that. And they refuse to
do it. We're the victims, not the ones actually shot
and killed. I do have one good piece of sound
I'd like to end be when we come back.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
It's your Morning show with Michael del Journo.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
So here we are in America, all hating each other
and doing what we can to destroy our country. And
then there's Rory McElroy born abroad here for the Ryder
Cup asked this, as a.
Speaker 12 (34:36):
Kid of America growing up and then now having.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
Lived here for so long, how is it similar or
different to what you thought it would be?
Speaker 7 (34:43):
Like everyone wanted to make it in America. It's the
land of opportunity. Now I still believe it's the greatest
country in the world. And if you come here and
you work hard, and you dedicate yourself, you can you
can be or.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
Do whatever you want.
Speaker 7 (34:58):
I am believably grateful and lucky that I got to
come to America early on, and I think success is
celebrated here. I think there's a there's a wonderful sense
of work ethic.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
I just wonder why we don't talk about ourselves that way.
That just sounds the.
Speaker 3 (35:17):
Day we're all in this together. This is Your Morning
Show with Michael Vindheld journom
Hi, I'm Michael.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
We'd love to have you listen every weekday morning to
your morning show live, even take us along with you
on the drive to work. We can be heard on
great radio stations like one oh four nine The Patriot
in Saint Louis, Our Talk Radio ninety eight point three
and fifteen ten WLAC and Nashville, and News Talk five
fifty k f YI in Phoenix, Arizona. Love to be
a part of your morning routine, but we're always grateful
(00:21):
you're here.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Now. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Well two three starting your morning off right.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
A new way of talk, a new way.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Of understanding because we're in the skyholder. This is your morning.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Show with Michael gil John Ah, the Golden Tones of
Mike mccannon. Thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Seven minutes after the hour, Good morning, and welcome to Friday,
September to the twenty sixth year of our Lord, twenty
twenty five. On the air and streaming live on your
iHeartRadio app. This is your morning show. Jeffreys got the sound,
I got the content. An honor to serve you. I'm
Michael del jorna House Minority leader Hakeem Jeffrey speaking out
against the indictment of form our FBI director James call me.
(01:03):
We also have Pete Hegseth with a top secret I
mean he has ordered hundreds of US admirals in generals
from around the world back home for a top secret meeting.
And do we know any more about the shooter in
the ice shooting in Dallas. Starbucks is planning a restructuring,
a one billion dollar restructuring plan.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
It probably means a lot less cafes.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
But Roy O'Neil or your Warning show correspondent is here
with the latest. Done all three of those top stories,
I guess we could let's start with Starbucks. What's going
on there?
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Yeah, it's a billion dollar shakeup, as he set a
trimming of the fat a little bit. They're really trying
to start to juice profit. Sales have been pretty flat
for six straight quarters now in the sales lump, especially
here in the US. So they're going to start by
closing about five hundred stores nationally and about nine hundred
non retail workers are getting laid off. This is an
(02:00):
addition to the thousand or so who were cut earlier
this year. Remember Starbucks got a new CEO about a
year ago. A year and a half ago. Brian Nickel
the new guy in charge. He came over from Chipotle.
He saw a huge success at Chipotle. They're hoping that
he can be as successful with Starbucks to really start
making it more profitable.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Some of the shareholders are saying things have been too flat.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Is there any way to blame this on Doze or
the president?
Speaker 1 (02:26):
I guess we'll wait and see.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Are these going to be primarily we could go with
tariffs on coffee?
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Coffee, I know on the cops that they write on.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
No, but I mean, how many of these are going
to be those standalones that seem to do a lot
better than the ones inside Target or inside Kroger.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Yes, so they're yeah, we haven't seen that specific breakdown,
but it's about it's only about a one percent cut
of the store, so it really overall it's not that significant.
It's about five hundred total closures from the company owned
stores to the ones that are franchised out like that.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
All right, we don't know a lot about the shooter
other than he didn't like Ice and then in a
letter he didn't like the federal government as a whole.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
What do we make of this? Right?
Speaker 4 (03:12):
That's part of this ongoing investigation. We did get an
update from the FBI that talked about how the shooter
sought to terrorize Ice that was in some of the
comments that were left behind in letters. But he also
said that good luck finding my digital footprint, essentially suggesting
that there isn't a whole lot to find online about
this guy's background, certainly not any good pictures.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
We got only just that one. Call me this indictment.
You know, he either did or didn't lie under under
oath to Congress. We'll find that out or probably just
you know, this indictment comes in a very favorable district
(03:53):
of northern Virginia for him, and all it takes is
one favorable juror. I mean, he either perjured himself or
he didn't. But I don't see this going anywhere where,
am I wrong?
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Yeah, it's a little thin, uh, you know, And we've
seen some talk depending exactly as to how this evidence
is presented. Like two things could be true that McCabe
could have authorized the leak and he didn't know about
it or did or Yeah, so we'll have to see
how the timeline breaks down. But you know, I think
the larger issue is it looks like again, it looks
(04:26):
it appears has the appearance of President Trump ordering his
political enemy to get indicted.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Well, but but rory the right and then the right.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
The right is no better right because I know that
a lot on the right are frustrated. We know what
they did, uh to go after Trump and probably crossed
a lot of lines, and they want to see somebody.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Pay for it. You suspect what they did?
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Well, No, I'm talking about people on the right say
they know and they want something. You know, I'm trying
to I'm kind of meeting you in the middle. The
rights wanting to fight, I fight and get justice for
the past, and the left want to fight and fight,
fight and stop what's coming. And I think it'd be
an all of our best interests probably to all move
on dot org, especially while the tenchans are so high
(05:12):
and shootings are taking place.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Right.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
We all suspect what happened when President Trump was out
of office in Russia Gate and all that.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
We suspect what happened there.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
But here it is in black and white, with the
President on true social telling the Attorney General you know,
where are my inditements? He fires the guy who wouldn't
bring him in titement and then appoints his defense attorney,
who has no experience as a prosecutor, to come in
and file the charge. So I mean, again, we suspect
what happened before, but here it is in this case now,
you know, pretty.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Black and white.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
And I'm surprised I haven't great reporting by the fastest
land animal. I threw so much at you, I wanted
to give you one easy one that was that was
a airplanes airplanes to airplane too. Uh No, you're right
to point all of that out.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
I think you know the president.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
I'm surprised I haven't gotten more angry emails from listeners
thinking I'm turning on the president, and I'm not.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
I'm in full support of the president.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
And in some ways, deep down, I'm looking forward to
a successful handoff and a next president. But yeah, he's
wrong to do all that, you know, when when the
way I was phrasing it is why are you handing
them their narrative on a silver platter like that?
Speaker 1 (06:30):
And so that's why I can't shoot Rory.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Down for saying that it's a statement of truth. People
are suspected, and I suspect greatly that they used federal
agencies in law fair for the purposes of determining an election.
That's a big deal. And I get just as mad
(06:54):
as everyone else. But there are a lot of people
on the right are done being mad. And if they're gonna,
you know, charge you and they're gonna drag you in
court and make you defend yourself, do it to them too.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
And then somebody's got to just say, well, wait time out.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
While we're letting all this partisan warfare go on, nuts
are watching, incited with accelerant in the idiocy of social media,
are out shooting people.
Speaker 5 (07:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
This is a moment of pause, if you will. Now.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
The latest, of course, is the government shut down. This
one I love so Rasmussen does a poll. Assuming the
government shuts down, who are you gonna blame? That's why
I would asking Roy, we went too long, I couldn't
finish with us. But thirty eight percent of likely US
(07:56):
voters say if the government shuts down, Democrats in Congress
will be the most to blame. Because that's really the
current you know what peing match the president saying I
don't need to meet with you. Do your job. That's
Congress's job. To fund the government. It's my job to
(08:18):
execute fund the government. And if you don't, well great,
I'm going to shut the government down and I'm going
to get rid of all these jobs I've been trying
to get rid of.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
A little shot across the bow.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
So meanwhile, you've got the far far left, crazy base.
It's even got a former presidential candidate, Kamala Harris endorsing
Mom Donnie, who we think is an Islamist for sure,
and a communist and socialist for sure. So I always
talk to you about that civil war within the Democrat Party. Well,
(08:52):
it's in a sense been one by the extreme far left,
and they have convinced the party as a whole to
fight fight fight fight.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Fight.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Fight means you shut the government down, you don't give
him his budget. Fight fight fight means you blame everything
on the president. Jimmy Kimmel says something stupid. Jimmy Kimmel
has no ratings, no revenue. Disney pulls the plug, you
blame it on the president. You make it all up
First Amendment issue. You just fight fight, fight chaos. Even
(09:20):
the shootings are a part of fight fight fight. So
this is the current standoff, and when it happens. Do
you think we live in a matrix? Thirty eight percent
will likely blame the Democrats in Congress, Twenty nine percent
think congressional Republicans would deserve the blame. Twenty one percent
(09:41):
say they'll blame Donald Trump. Twelve percent say they're honest,
not sure, but I blame somebody.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
This is what we become.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
This is This isn't gridlock, This is dysfunction, and this
isn't opposition. This is starting to look combative with gunshots
(10:16):
coming from the audience watching it all. I did something yesterday,
and that's why we have the podcast. You can always
go back and listen to Thursday. And I don't remember
what hour I did it in. I think it might
have been the first hour. We're playing a much higher
(10:38):
stakes January sixth game right now. You see, Nancy Pelosi
knew it was coming, and she told everybody to stand down.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
She wanted it.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
That was far more herb goading the president into that.
That wasn't insurrection, that was, you know, a government surrection.
And Donald Trump's speech played right into her hands, just
like his speech recently of I.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Want to get you know, Pam Bonni, I want to
dte these enemies.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Why And I'm just making the case so you can
see play calls balls and strikes.
Speaker 6 (11:13):
Here.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
That's the president trying to please the far right, who
are saying, I'm sick of all the talk due to them,
what they did to you. I want to see people
pay for this. They cheated and stolen election. Start sending
some people to jail. They harassed you, it led to
an assassination, attempt to send him to jail. He's hearing that.
I know I deal with those people. And if Comy
(11:39):
was in jail today, are you any safer from a
left radicalized whether it's transgender or anti Republican or anti
government shooter. I'm not having any problem with the things
that the president is doing, but he's getting back to
(12:01):
Trump one point zero and saying the wrong things wrong
only in the sense of it's playing right into their
narrative hands. You do realize it was only what five
days ago we were watching the memorial service of Charlie Kirk.
(12:22):
That seems like an eternity go, doesn't it. That's so
Kimmel government shutdown, I shoot her in the past. That's
the game they're playing.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
This is Your Morning Show with Michael del Chrono.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Good morning, Michael.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yeah, the shooter's digital footprint might be hard to find,
but his sister's yikes, let's just say she's a content.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Creator on certain adult platforms.
Speaker 7 (12:52):
Have a good morning.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Does that mean she's a porn star or like one
of those Olean fans onlyfan.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
That's kind of what I was taking to dash shoes
on that only fan side. Ooh, I'm trying to find it.
That's a big good bump for her career.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Official say a note found at the residence of the
suspected gunman's house is giving them some clues he was
wanting to create terror.
Speaker 8 (13:16):
The acting US Attorney for North of Texas says a
note found that the residents of the suspected gunmen said
he wanted to cause terror for agents. He shooting left
one detain a dead and two others injured. Other notes
found indicated he acted alone and included anti Ice and
Andi government rhetoric. Twenty nine year old Joshua Yan was
found dead from a self inflicted gunshot wound on the
roof of an apartment building across from the facility. The
(13:38):
FBI said the gun used was legally obtained by Yan.
I'm mark Mayfield. Well, it's unprecedented. I mean, you could
issue a memo if it was budget cuts.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
But Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is ordering hundreds of US
admirals and generals from all over the world to gather
in Virginia.
Speaker 9 (13:53):
The meeting is reportedly expected to take place at a
military installation in Quanticole, but what it's about is unclear.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
It could be anything from a.
Speaker 9 (14:01):
Group of physical fitness test to a briefing on the
current state of the Defense Department, or a mass firing.
Haiksath has said he wants to cut around twenty percent
of senior generals and admirals.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
I'm Jim Roope. Well, you know the marching orders of
the left. Fight, Fight, Fight.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
A Democratic congresswoman is announcing plans to introduce articles of
impeachment against Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Kennedy Junior.
Speaker 10 (14:25):
Michigan Congresswoman Haley Stevens shared a post on x citing
healthcare chaos, reckless cuts, and rising costs is the reason
she's drafting the motion. Stevens has repeatedly called for Kennedy's
removal from his role since he became Health secretary. The
move comes as major medical organizations continue to speak out
against recent federal health policies and recommendations. I'm Tammy Trhio.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
People cried for help. What are they crying for? But
Ava did not come.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
A new trailer is out for the upcoming Avatar Fire
and Ash. The footage shows Jake Scully and his family
at war with the enemy Nave tribe in the world
of Pandora. The first Avatar released in two thousand and nine,
It still holds the title as the highest grossing worldwide
film ever with over two billion dollars. Twenty twenty two
sequel The Way of Water stands as the third highest

Well Today is Shammoo Day Shammoo the Whale, celebrating the
magnificent creatures of the ocean. Bree Tennis has more on
(15:43):
a sad story with a better ending.
Speaker 11 (15:45):
Shamoo was the first orca at SeaWorld San Diego in
nineteen sixty five, purchased for five thousand dollars. A park
then turned Shamou into a brand with Orca shows. Visitors
could see the killer whales interact with staff and breach,
drenching fans in the soak zone more to celebrate with
a birth of baby Shamoo at the park September twenty sixth,
(16:07):
nineteen eighty five. The Yorca shows ended in twenty seventeen,
replaced with educational programs. Today, the park is encouraging donations
to conservation as the apex predators are now endangered. I'm
pree Tennis.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Did we ever confirm that that's what Michael Jackson was singing? Shamoo?
I've got a cute up if you want to know. Yeah,

us along. I'm the drive to work, but as we
always say, better late than never. Enjoy the podcast. We
are limping along without Red this week. I say limping along.
(17:14):
I think I filled in very well for I think
you've done a great job with the exception of you
second guessing my Spotlight Interview of the Week. I never
second guessed it, but I would like to congratulate you.
Are you ready for this? I did some research during
the break. Yeah, Michael Jackson can be heard singing shamone. Okay, now,
I've been singing at shamou for years, thinking it was
the whale, shamone and several hit songs, including Bad, Black
(17:40):
and White and Man in the Mirror. The word is
a signature vocal embellishment, where he's essentially singing come on,
but doing it in his own unique embellished way.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
So you were right? Were you guessing or did your research? Though?
Speaker 6 (17:56):
No?
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I mean these are things I know. I played all
these songs when they were new.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Oh and while you were playing it, you knew when
he said chemon he was saying, come on, what I
thought it was a mispronunciation?
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yeah, let me hear it up right there. I can't
hear all right, well, your research is good, but now your.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
D jaying stakes well, I mean on the fly. So yeah,
shem on, he's really saying come on. I didn't know
he did in three songs. I thought he really liked
that whale. I really did a lot of words. Thirty
seven minutes after the hour, House Minority of the leader
Hakim Jeffrey's playing politics with the indictment of FBI Director
James come because he believes Donald Trump's playing politics?
Speaker 1 (18:47):
What's up with pete? Hegsep.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Why is he ordering hundreds of admirals in generals from
around the world to come to Virginia. They can't do
that on a zoom call like we do. And three
really big games college football this weekend, the biggest six
versus three, Oregon and Penn State. Plus we got lsu Ole,
Miss Bama and Georgia. Lots of football to watch, unless,
of course, you are White House correspondent John Decker. No
(19:11):
football Saturday, that's beneath you. You're on Air Force one
today heading to Beth Page for the Ryder Cup. I'm
so jealous. Good morning, Hey, good morning.
Speaker 5 (19:21):
But I'm still gonna watch college football tomorrow. That doesn't
well I did for tomorrow. I we got we got
Alabama Georgia, we got the LSU game, we got Oregon
Penn State.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
We got some good games tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
At my mom's nursing home, the head of nursing on
the floor that she's on was a wide receiver for
Old Miss. He's a terrific guy, Billy boy I was.
I was jawing him up good yesterday because this is
a this is a pretty solid LSU team, an LSU
team that, when they're solid, struggles against Mississippi State usually
and gets bid, not Old Miss. But yeah, we look
(19:53):
forward to that Ryder Cup beth Page. I played it
nine over this morning on my simulated game. But I've
always just wanted to go to a Ryder Cup, and
you get to do it today.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, I do.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
I'll travel with the President this morning up to Bethpage,
New York, a Long Island, New York.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Huge crowds anticipated.
Speaker 5 (20:11):
I would also imagine incredible security given that the President
will be there. The President loves golf, It's his favorite sport.
I would not be surprised if the President gives a
pep talk to the US team taking on the Europeans
today and for the next two days beyond that at.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
The Ryder Cup. Hey don't say that lightly.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
When last time he came into Yankee Stadium gave a
pep talk to the Yankees and we're now tied for
the division lead with three games to go, they're probably
going to end up winning the division And it all
turned around and the Bats came alive that night. Judge
got two home runs. His pep talk could be the
difference in the Ryder Cup. All right, So what do
(20:50):
we think Pete Hegsath is up to. This can't be
just cuts ken it. I mean, that could be done
in a memo.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
It could be done in a memo. I don't know.
I know, there's so much speculation.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
I'm getting calls, emails, text messages from literally all over
the world asking what this is all about.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
And I do not know. I do not know why
this is this event. I guess you can call it.
Speaker 5 (21:14):
This meeting is scheduled for Quantico, with all of America's
top flag officers around the world attending, so a lot
of planning for this, and and the President asked about
this yesterday. He didn't he didn't make much of it.
But I think it's pretty unusual, as you that's the
reason why you're talking about it too.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Yeah, well, I think.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
I mean, I'm wondering if that's the message they're trying
to send to Putin, make him wonder what are we
up to? Is this going to be a war escalation?
Is this going to be a D Day? Or you know, no,
who knows, but you know, it's like we always say,
if you're going to have a major announcement, it better
be a major announcement. I guess, you know, if they
were coordinating something of a major military you know, reasoning,
(22:02):
that would be done a little more stealth. So don't
I don't know what this is and why they're allowing it.
I mean, you would think that if it got out
and people are speculating big things, you would put that
to rest. But we just don't know. Are they gonna
tell us after what it was?
Speaker 5 (22:17):
I hope, so, I hope, So, you know, will there
be leaks? You know, if indeed there isn't an official
statement that's put out by the Pentagon, by the Department
of War, I do not know, so I'll be following
that closely seeing what I learn. And perhaps I have
an opportunity today to ask the President about that on
the flight up or on the flight back from the
(22:38):
Ryder Cup in New York.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
And I you know, just some basic etiquette. You know,
you can say you're a friend, and then you can
be a friend. If there's like a Ryder Cup hat,
a T shirt, something I've only wanted to go my
entire life, it'd be a nice gesture.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Put it on the President's credit card. Yeah, that's right.
Get the opportunity.
Speaker 5 (23:01):
If they let us go to the gift shop, I'll
spend somebody and I'll get you a hat for sure.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Go USA, Go Tigers. All right, John Decker, have a
great weekend.
Speaker 12 (23:09):
Thank you people who majored in online activision with a
minor and puberty block.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
They're gonna a little bit.
Speaker 7 (23:17):
Yi.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
You in the media clearly missed the art of the deal.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
It's going to work out.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
I guess I have to.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
Kamala Harris's to start off our Sounds of the Day.
One is the rebirth of the word salad. It's back
as she's on her book tour. Unfortunately, this audio is
someone that's at the public appearance, which I think was
a book reading slash interview in Q and A.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
So if you'll.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Forgive the audio, here's Kamala. She's still got it.
Speaker 13 (23:49):
I have a vision and we need today steal the.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
Post today, and.
Speaker 13 (24:00):
We really have to emphasize what we're doing today to
help people today.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
You know.
Speaker 13 (24:05):
One of the things to play about you done in
differently when we did remember the build back better and
and and and the interesting with the infrastructure deals with
the Chips.
Speaker 10 (24:15):
Act, I would have I would've reversed it.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
I would've done the piece.
Speaker 13 (24:20):
That we had on families first, which was about extending
the child tax credit and.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
Affordable child care and a paying family.
Speaker 13 (24:27):
You know, it would have addressed an immediate issue MS.
Speaker 10 (24:32):
And I think that that's really important.
Speaker 13 (24:33):
That's what we think about if to the extent that
we are demanding policy.
Speaker 9 (24:39):
And we're thinking about policy fools who.
Speaker 8 (24:41):
Could run for office.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Uh.
Speaker 14 (24:42):
The second point I've made about the future is I'm
really exhausted.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Frankly, a good.
Speaker 13 (24:48):
Political contry around this whole discussion about.
Speaker 8 (24:52):
Waiting for the Messiah.
Speaker 13 (24:54):
Yeah, you know, right way, even then there's one or
come on, there are swee have so many stars?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Oh yes, the Democrats have so many stars. And she
still thinks she's the biggest. And that's the bottom line
of that sound. That's the bottom line of this book tour,
which is really interesting. And I just want to be
the one person to make this simple observation. Usually a
(25:25):
serious candidate for president comes out with a book right
before the campaign is announced, because what you're basically giving
everybody that's going to work on the website, everybody that's
going to work in all the campaign offices, and certainly
for the messaging of the campaign trail, the structure for
everything you plan to do. Only Kamala Harris if in fact,
(25:49):
and I think it's obvious. It was obvious when she
didn't run for governor in California. She's going to run
for president again, and she's going to lose again. I
don't know somebody else will pick her up as vice
president again, but she's definitely gonna lose as a candidate again.
But only Kamala Harris would launch her presidential campaign with
(26:12):
a book about why she lost. And if she's talking
about being focused on today in order to meet the
needs of tomorrow, why is all she's talking about is
what happened a year ago and why she lost. I
(26:34):
mentioned earlier that we have gone from you know, partisan
politics to dysfunction. This would be a great example on
the view she's asked if she can think of because
I remember as a child, well shortly before my birth,
(26:57):
I don't think we've had a more conservative president the
John F. Kennedy in my lifetime. Reagan was close, but
he was influenced by Kennedy. Trump was close, but he
was influenced by Reagan and Kennedy. You do know one
of the most central things that we fight.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
About is maga make America great again?
Speaker 2 (27:22):
And do you know that wasn't even started by Ronald Reagan,
let alone Donald Trump. The point is, when I was young,
the difference between a Democrat and a Republican was never
on essential things, never on faith, never on family, never
(27:43):
on country first.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Minor issues.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Now you ask somebody that was vice president of the
United States who plans to run for president again, can.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
She think of one thing that Donald Trump is doing
that is good? And she can't.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Do you think that there's anything he's done right since
coming back into office?
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Does anything come to me? You know, nothing comes to mind.
Speaker 14 (28:14):
You, Well, I can leave it at that, but let
me just say that I'm sure there are some things.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
I'm sure there are, but I could never say it
out loud. That's not differing. That's a war. They couldn't
if they were held under a bright light in a torture,
say one good thing about Donald Trump. Gosh, I hope
(28:44):
we're not like this. I hope we weren't like this
with Barack Obama. Oh I know I wasn't because I
would say some good things.
Speaker 14 (28:53):
But the reality is he is just strying our government.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
I mean, that's it.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Governor says, that's the tone in America today. I don't
know how do we get how we get to unity?
We can't even dare, I'm guessing. When she was asked
that question, a couple of things came to mind, and
the reason she wanted to leave it at nothing was
(29:22):
she couldn't dare say it. When we last saw James Comy,
he was spelling out eighty six, which, for those of
you that come from the restaurant business, to eighty six something,
especially in FBI terms, is to take it out. So
he's standing taking a picture with shells that he claims
(29:44):
he just walked by and saw he may have or
he may have arranged them. Either way, What kind of
a moron who ran the FBI acts like he doesn't
know what eighty six forty seven means or how insensitive
that is to a forty seven who was a centimeter
(30:04):
away from being killed. Everything about James Coley makes my
discernment alarms go off.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
And now the he's indicted. This is as much a
visual as an audio.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
You got to see him like with this real close
up in his tie, and here's this creepy guy.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
And here's his message.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
As if, like January sixth, the president just walked nothing.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
They did.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Nothing they did that should be held accountable. Nothing they
did in the past that matters. Just this president targeting enemies.
He placed the tyrant card.
Speaker 6 (30:45):
My family and I have known for years that there
are costs to standing up to Donald Trump, but we
couldn't imagine ourselves living any other way. We will not
live on our knees and you shouldn't either. Somebody that
I I love dearly recently said that fear is the
tool of a tyrant, and she's right. But I'm not afraid,
(31:09):
and I hope you're not either, I hope instead, you
are engaged, you are paying attention, and you will vote
like your beloved country depends upon which it does. My
heart is broken for the Department of Justice, but I
have great confidence in the federal judicial system and I'm innocent.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
So let's have a trial first.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Charlie Kirk wasn't the victim. Jimmy Kimmel was. Now James
cole Mey is. And this is the checkmate we were
describing yesterday. Whatever the President does one step forward or
one step towards justice, they'll just renarrativize it. That's not justice.
(31:58):
Never mind the murderers and the rape that have been deported.
He's sending firefighters, innocent Americans, splitting up families. This is
what a president does to people that disagree with them.
He deports them. Jimmy Kimmel didn't have no ratings and
no revenue and said something really inaccurate and really insensitive.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
No, the president silencing his enemies.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
Cony didn't pursure himself. And of course he releases a
video like this because he knows they're gonna stack all.
It's gonna take a slip in one person in a
very favorable Northern Virginia courtroom into that jury. Look, if
you can steal an election, they can get call me off,
(32:47):
and then they'll all say, this is the president trying
to jail his enemies, but he failed. And I'm not
so much worried that they're turning the narrative towards a
victory in the midterms in twenty twenty eight, though they may.
I'm worried as they do this, how the right will
(33:08):
respond and if we're closer to a civil war, and
when it comes to one senator, a Democrat in Connecticut,
it really doesn't matter if the left is creating shooters,
it's still the president's fault.
Speaker 15 (33:22):
Asking about the shooting in Dallas yesterday, two people killed,
another injured, and some of the rhetoric we've been talking
about this morning, Vice President Vance immediately at an event
blaming the left, blaming Democrats before the before we had
all the information, certainly did the same after the horrific
assassination of Charlie Kirk. Leadership in these moments, I'm thinking
about you, after Sandy Hook nearly thirteen years ago, how
(33:45):
important is it for leaders, especially at the very very
top of the.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
Government, to set the tone list.
Speaker 12 (33:50):
It should not matter whether the radicalization comes from the
right or the left, or you know, sort of the
non ideological, convenient recissness of the internet.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
This president, this vice president.
Speaker 12 (34:01):
Has had a chance now since the assassination Charlie Hurt,
to bring the country together, to try to stamp out
all sorts of violence, including political violence.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
And they refuse to do that. And they refuse to
do it. We're the victims, not the ones actually shot
and killed. I do have one good piece of sound
I'd like to end be when we come back.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
It's your Morning show with Michael del Journo.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
So here we are in America, all hating each other
and doing what we can to destroy our country. And
then there's Rory McElroy born abroad here for the Ryder
Cup asked this, as a.
Speaker 12 (34:36):
Kid of America growing up and then now having.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
Lived here for so long, how is it similar or
different to what you thought it would be?
Speaker 7 (34:43):
Like everyone wanted to make it in America. It's the
land of opportunity. Now I still believe it's the greatest
country in the world. And if you come here and
you work hard, and you dedicate yourself, you can you
can be or.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
Do whatever you want.
Speaker 7 (34:58):
I am believably grateful and lucky that I got to
come to America early on, and I think success is
celebrated here. I think there's a there's a wonderful sense
of work ethic.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
I just wonder why we don't talk about ourselves that way.
That just sounds the.
Speaker 3 (35:17):
