Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, It's Michael.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
Your morning show airs live five to eight am Central
six to nine Eastern in great cities like Memphis, Tennessee, Telsa, Oklahoma, Sacramento, California.
We'd love to be a part of your morning routine,
but we're happier here now. Enjoy the podcast three.

Speaker 3 (00:17):
Starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding, because we're in this together.
This is your morning show with Michael Del Chrono O.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
Morning seven minutes after the hour on this Monday, October
the twenty seventh, you have our Lord twenty twenty five
on the air, streaming live on your iHeartRadio app. This
is your morning show. I'm Michael del Journo. Adam Thompson
in La keeping an eye on the sounds and the
talkbacks red, keeping an eye on the content, and these
are your top stories. Waking up. The US Envoy says
trade talks with China are getting closer to an agreement.

(00:53):
Framework is set, and according to Scott Passent, even a
TikTok deal may be signed when the President gets to
his meeting with she Airports around the country continue to
experience delays as the federal government shutdown continues and the
World Series moves to Los Angeles, tied at one game apiece.
The Dodgers have three in a row of Dodgers Stadium.

(01:14):
They could close it out at home. Game three is
tonight on Fox and yes, late October a hurricane Melissa.
She formed quickly. She's a Cat five. And the question
is is Jamaica in the crosshairs or is there a
turn being made to our your morning show national correspondent
and a hurricane expert. I might add Rory O'Neil. This

(01:36):
is late in the season, isn't it.

Speaker 4 (01:38):
Hey, It's odd to get a storm this powerful this
late in the season. You know, the annual Atlantic hurricane
season runs through the end of November, so we're still
in it. The peak comes in September. But yeah, this
is odd to see the storm this powerful. But the
real issue with Melissa is the fact that it's going
so slowly, only about three miles per hour. That means

(01:59):
it's going to jump huge amounts of rain on Jamaica,
maybe fifteen to thirty inches by some estimates. And then
this thing is going to be hitting eastern Cuba. And
that's a concern for the US because of our naval
base there at Guantanamo Bay, so that's something else to follow.
But Melissa is not going to be making any direct
landfall on the US mainland.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
What's the trajectory after Cuba or easterly.

Speaker 4 (02:23):
Light, it then heads toward the Bahamas and then outdoor
the open Atlantic. So it is going to be moving
I think technically west right now, it's three miles per hour.
Then it's going to make a turn to the north
and east, so it's out over the Atlantic.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
So normally we don't have very powerful hurricanes this late
in the season because the waters are starting to cool down, right, Yeah,
that's it, but not in this part of the world.

Speaker 4 (02:46):
Right right off the coast of Jamaica, the ocean temperatures
and the upper eighties still certainly that's the fuel a
storm like this will need.

Speaker 5 (02:54):
To expand quickly.

Speaker 4 (02:57):
Hopefully the eastern mountains of Cuba will do something to
maybe tear this storm apart a little bit, but by
then it might be too late. Again, when you have
hurricane force winds extending outward from the center by thirty miles,
that's the radius, So sixty miles is your.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
Just went out of my head with the deep.

Speaker 4 (03:17):
But Anyway, it's the This could put some parts of
Jamaica in these hurricane force conditions for about twenty hours,
so that could be the real killer. Remember it's the
water that tends to kill people, not the wind.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
Yeah, and Rory, we've been keeping an eye on the
government shutdown. There's been a lot of conversation, well, what
if it just stays close through the end of the year.
I mean, if it were solved now, you're facing another
government shutdown in three weeks. Usually what ends these is
disruption of air travel. I don't have to tell you
Halloween is this weekend, and then after Halloween comes Thanksgiving

(03:51):
and Christmas. That's a lot of travel. So we're seeing
our first science LAX had to halt flights dright to
air traffic controller shortages. This is usually the pressure it
finally gets the government to reopen. Is that where we're headed?

Speaker 4 (04:03):
I think, well, and let's see what happens with this
food stamp program, the you know that's running out November
first as well, to see if they can do something
in order to continue snap benefits and look some legal
questions about some of the maneuvers that have gotten soldiers
paid and things like that. And that kind of presidential
authority or or the president is using that authority whether

(04:24):
he has it or not, and what that means for
the future role of Congress and these kinds of discussions.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
Yeah, we've been kind of following. You know, who's getting
blamed for this. The president's approval rating is steady, so
he's not the one getting the blame. It's been ticking
towards and some polls have Democrats being blamed more than Republicans.
I think only Quinnipiac has Republicans slightly, although that gap
is closing, being blamed more than Democrats. But the heat

(04:50):
was snapped, the heat with their traffic controllers. The one
to cave might be the Democrats. We'll see how this
plays out this week. Great reporting, Rory. We'll talk against soon,
all right, early voltevoting? How early is too early? I
mean how much time do you legitimately need to vote early?
Is it a month? I mean, why do we need

(05:10):
a month of early voting? Is it two weeks? Is
it less? Most voters have taken advantage of early voting.
I don't know that I ever have, but I'm kind
of for me. Election Day is a big deal. I
love to vote on election day. I don't think I've
ever early voted. I don't think I've ever absentee voted.
But most voters do take advantage of early voting in person,

(05:33):
but they believe it should be limited to two weeks
or less before election day. The latest Rasmus report shows
fifty two percent of likely US voters have voted early
in person before, while forty five percent say that they haven't.
So this is significant for many reasons. One and I
don't know that it's true anymore. It was definitely true

(05:54):
in twenty twenty where the Democrats were better at getting
voters to the polls, to early vote and to absentee vote,
and the Republicans would just complain about it because the
Republicans primary are an election day crowd. Well what did
that translate to? Every election? The Republicans were coming from
behind on election day. And then in twenty twenty four,

(06:20):
remember what was the president's slogan, too Big to Rig
or whatever the slogan was, But basically what they were
selling was get out vote early, make sure you absentee vote,
and get out on election day. So the Republicans for
the first time addressed early voting but primarily historically, the

(06:41):
Democrats have a huge advantage with early voting. Therefore, the
longer early voting is open, the better for them. Any
early voting is better for them, and that's why these
numbers kind of fall under partisan matrix lines. So fifty
two percent have early voted, forty five percent haven't. I
would think that would I don't know if that would
surprise you. I guess that'd be a great talkback. If

(07:03):
you're listening on the iHeart app, you'll see a microphone.
You hit it. You don't have to wait on hold anymore.
You got thirty seconds to make a common or ask
a question. The question would be the same one. Rasmussen asked,
how long should early voting be? One week? Two weeks tops? Right?
And are you surprised that forty five percent say they've
never used early voting. I've never used early voting. Criticism

(07:25):
of early voting was highlighted recently in the off year
election in Virginia, which allowed voting for forty five days.
That's an election cycle for crying, forty five days, of course,
I joke. Look, we haven't even we haven't even gotten

(07:45):
to the holidays. Before the midterm elections, and kama is
talking about running in twenty twenty eight, but forty five
days for a off year election. Thirty one percent of
likely voters believed early voting should begin a week or
less before an election. Another thirty one percent favored one
to two weeks, So that's thirty one and thirty one

(08:07):
is sixty two percent with a reasonable two weeks or less.
Just twenty percent think there needs to be three weeks
or more for early voting. Among those who have previously
participated in early voting, sixty five percent believe it should
be limited to two weeks or less. Fifty six percent
of Democrats, fifty three percent of Republicans, forty five percent
of non affiliated of either party have voted early or

(08:28):
in person, so a slight edge for the Democrats. Thirty
seven percent of Republicans, twenty seven percent of Democrats, and
twenty nine percent of unaffiliated voters believe early voting period
should be one week or less, So somewhere around one
week two weeks tops is the number for early voting.
Beyond that, well, kind of like jerrymandering is to redistricting,

(08:53):
early voting could be to try to sway elections.

Speaker 6 (08:59):
Michael surprise that only fourteen percent said same day voting, Well, I.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Think we're past that, you know I often I've said
it this way. If you wanted to put our country
on an autopilot, the first thing you'd be recognizing is,
and we have to deal with it, the two party stranglehold.
It was never meant to be. Our founding fathers suggested

(09:27):
against it. It creates distraction and divide. That's my problem
with the two party stranglehold. I like to say no party,
not one, not to no party, certainly not a third.
Then you have a one party media, a biased medi
in the back pocket of one of the party. So
the two party stranglehold creates the distraction and the divide.
The one party creates the confusion and the mistrust media,

(09:51):
and that equals people focused on the presidency too much
when they should be focused on Congress. But once you
get beyond that, you could put this whole thing on
autopilot with the zero base to prioritize balance budget, no
continuing resolutions, and one budget for the two year term
of the legislature. That would solve a lot, including today's crisis.

(10:11):
Then a flatter, fair tax system. Everyone has skin in
the game, then term limits for those serving that would
bust the career politician problem, the aging politician problem, as
well as the special interest groups. And then I have
fourth on my list, only paper in person election day voting,

(10:34):
that would solve a lot of problems. Now, whether you
go on to returning the Senate to the states where
the states appoint a senator to protect the states' rights,
not a club of one hundred that really are trying
to run the country. And then you got to do
something about the debt, which is you either got to
pay it down or divide it up and give it
to all the tax paying families to pay down over

(10:55):
a lifetime. They never make that mistake again. But the
first four to maybe even yeah, just the first four
would put this on autopilot all the nonsense we deal
with daily. But yeah, that's how far we are from that.
Only fourteen percent on same day voting. I think the
percentage would probably be about the same for a fair

(11:16):
or flat tax, and I don't know what the percentage
would be for a zero base, prioritize budget or term limits.
Probably a little higher, but not much. But yeah, that's
surprisingly low. And again, if early voting is to take
some of the congestion away from voting on election day.
I think a weekest plenty for me. I think two

(11:39):
weeks tops. But I think we can all agree for
an off year election forty five days in Virginia. That's ridiculous.
There's something up beyond voting convenience.

Speaker 3 (11:54):
This is your Morning Show with Michael Deltrono.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
For just waking up. Treasury Secretary Scott Passent says TikTok
deal is set to be finalized when the President and
Gee get together later this week.

Speaker 7 (12:12):
Hasn't made the statement During an appearance on CBS's Face Nation.
He said that all the details are ironed out and
that it will be up to the two leaders to
consummate the transaction. This comes after President Trump signed an
executive order last month to approve a deal that allows
a Chinese company to sell the social media platform to
a group of American investors. I'm Tammy Trihio.

Speaker 1 (12:33):
Former Vice President Kamala Harris is leaving the door open
for a possible presidential bid in twenty twenty eight. Oh shocking.
She was asked about another run for the White House
during an interview with the BBC that aired this weekend.

Speaker 8 (12:44):
I have lived my entire career a life of service,
and it's in my bones, and there are many ways
to serve. I've not decided yet what I will do
in the future.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
She told the BBC. She's playing a different role in politics.

Speaker 8 (13:00):
One of the reasons that I decided not to run
for governor of California. I want to listen to people
without it being transactional, without asking people for their vote,
but listening to them. I think the American people have
a lot to say right.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
Now, and they're listening to her, which is part of
the problem. French police say two men have been taken
into custody in connection with the jewel heist at the
Louver in Paris.

Speaker 9 (13:24):
French officials say one of the suspects was arrested Saturday
evening while trying to leave the country.

Speaker 1 (13:29):
They estimate the thieves made off with more than.

Speaker 9 (13:31):
One hundred million dollars worth of jewels from the museum
last weekend. French President Emmanuel mccron calls the robbery an
attack on the country's heritage. The Louver reopened to the
public last week. I'm Scott Carr.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
Actress Jude Lockhart has died at her home in southern
California details from Lisa Cartin.

Speaker 10 (13:49):
Her family said Saturday she died of natural causes this
week at the age of one hundred. The Tony Award
winner starred in the popular TV series Lost in Space
and Lassie.

Speaker 5 (14:00):
Ooh, I'm So Happy to see You.

Speaker 10 (14:04):
Her first film role was in the nineteen thirty eight
classic A Christmas Carol, in which both of her parents,
Jean and Kathleen Lockhart, starred. Lockhart was born in New
York City in nineteen twenty five and began acting at
the age of eight.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
I'm Lisa Carton survey show, one in four Americans say
they've lived in a haunted house. Twenty three percent say
they currently have a resident ghost. It's all good unless
you're trying to sell your home. Pre Tennis says more.

Speaker 11 (14:29):
Science does not support the existence of ghosts, but many
people will port lingering energy after death, cold spots, on,
explained noises, even pets acting strangely. If you're selling, paranormal
activity does not legally have to be revealed, but in
most states death does. Nerdwald says a ghost in the
house can lower its value up to twenty five percent,

(14:50):
but it can raise the value if a ghost is
someone famous, that is, if ghosts even exist. I'm pre
tennis in.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
Sports Ohio State Indiana still number one and two. Vandy
with a win over Missoo's seventeen ten move up one
notch from ten to ninth. In NFL Cities of Your
Morning Show, Interest Bills forty to nine over the Panthers
forty nine. Ers lost to Houston twenty six to fifteen.
Brown's fall to the Patriots thirty two to thirteen. Four
turnovers for the Saints, that's all the Bucks needed, twenty

(15:17):
three to three over the Saints. Titans now one in seven,
losing to the Colts, who are now seven to one.
They lost thirty eight to fourteen. Sunday Night Football, Tucker
Kraft one hundred and forty three yards and two touchdowns.
It was national tight end Dingy Pack thirty five twenty
five over the Steelers. Monday Night Football Tonight, Kansas City
hosting the Commanders. And that's your top five stories of
the day.

Speaker 3 (15:40):
This is Your Morning Show with Michael Deltno.

Speaker 1 (15:48):
US envoy says trade talks with China are getting closer
to an agreement that would mean ground has been made
on the fentanyl issue and the trade in balance as well. Meanwhile,
airports the country continue to experience delays as the federal
government shutdown continues. That's usually what pressures shut downs to end.
We'll see if that's the case. And the viral Labooboo

(16:13):
characters are going to make their way to Macy's Thanksgiving
Day parade. That's big news for my daughters and wife.
Oh gosh, help me if they order that big one.
The whole presidential Asian trip, it's starting to feel like
the Saudi trip in that the president gets celebrated abroad
in a way he doesn't get celebrated at home. That's

(16:35):
number one, number two productivity. Now, in the Saudi cutter trip,
it was great economic victory, but it was also, as
we learned, foreign policy setup for the end of the
war with Israel and Hamas with Saudi and reasonable Muslim
nation support. This is looking like cherry on the whip

(17:00):
for the president. He starts in Thailand, where that deal
that that peace deal with Cambodia and Thailand that the
President negotiated was signed into place, and then a huge
mineral earth deal with Thailand. It ends with the President
dancing on the tarmac. Then he arrives in Japan at

(17:22):
three o'clock this morning. There's a huge trade and balance
that we covered with the amount of vehicles that we're buying.
As you can imagine, Nissan and Honda's Japan too, right, Yeah, Nissan, Honda, Mitsubishi.
I'm trying to think of all of them. And it
was in the millions. And then of course they buy

(17:42):
allows he seventeen thousand from us. So the President is
apparently negotiating the purchase of many, many Ford F one fifties.
Another victory for everybody in Detroit. And that's in Japan,
and then it's onto China, where the TikTok deal as
well as we think the framework turned to trade deal.

(18:02):
By the way, give Read some credit. He called it
when the President turned on Canada over the Ontario Ad,
which a was a Reagan radio program taken out of
context and without permission. The President slapped Canada by ending
all talks and one hundred percent tariff. The Prime Minister

(18:24):
has removed the ads from the Ontario government province and
he is now in China negotiating a trade deal. So
the President has been extraordinarily celebrated abroad. I wouldn't have
thought there could be a better trip than the Saudi
cutter trip until this one, or so it is shaping.

(18:47):
White House correspondent John Decker is joining us. This guy
him and Rubio's like his American Express. He doesn't leave
home without him. These two in foreign countries always come
back with a good bag, don't they.

Speaker 12 (19:01):
Well, there are a number of trade deals the President
has already announced. First stop on the President's Asia trip
has now been complete.

Speaker 5 (19:08):
That was to Malaysia.

Speaker 12 (19:09):
The President just within the past few hours arrived in Tokyo, Japan.
That's the second stop on his trip. Remember, a trade
deal has already been reached with Japan, that was a
few months ago. But the President paying a tribute first
of all to the Emperor of Japan. And then the
President will have bilateral meetings starting well this evening.

Speaker 5 (19:29):
Their time, you know.

Speaker 12 (19:30):
But for us tomorrow and for the President, the final stop.

Speaker 5 (19:34):
On his trip will be later in the week.

Speaker 12 (19:36):
That will be to South Korea. That's when the President
will meet with Chinese President Xiji King. That will be
on Thursday.

Speaker 1 (19:42):
Why so much speculation, and I think I get it.
There's been a huge disproportionate nine of via new cars
bought in Japan or Japanese made. They've only been importing
about seventeen thousand of ours. Meanwhile, have to tell you
the millions that we import through Nissan, Honda and others.
I think that looks like, in addition to the trade

(20:02):
deal they already had with Japan, a little what we
call the New Orleans Land yep, a little bonus to
come home with her. At least that's the buzz. Have
you been hearing that?

Speaker 5 (20:11):
Well, it's important to keep in mind.

Speaker 12 (20:13):
You know, I've been to Japan, I've been to South Korea.
I've been to many places in Asia, and you're right.
The majority of vehicles that are on the road there
you look out on the streets, they are Asian brands,
whether they're from South Korea or from Japan. A lot
of it has to do with demand. So even if
you raise the number of vehicles allowed into a certain
country without having a tear up associated with it, it

(20:35):
won't necessarily lead to demand for those vehicles, and that
I think is certainly the case in South Korea. You
look out, you can spend all day on a street
in South Korea and not see one American vehicle and
a lot of that just has to do with the demand,
the taste.

Speaker 5 (20:50):
For those customers that are interested in.

Speaker 12 (20:53):
Purchasing vehicles in South Korea.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
Well, I could say the same thing for here at home, right,
the popularity of niss On, Honda, Subaru, Mitsubishi. That's why
one point three to seven are coming here because Americans
want them, right, But there could be a huge purchase too,
Ford F one fifties or at least that's what everyone
in Detroit is rooting for. That might be in the works.

(21:19):
All right, Well, you see the shaping up kind of
like the Saudi Cutter trip, a huge success, celebrated more
abroad than at home.

Speaker 5 (21:29):
And uh yeah, I mean, look, I think that certain things.

Speaker 12 (21:32):
Are celebrated more abroad than home because it just doesn't resonate.
That being said, you know what the President has announced
so far with a number of countries a number of
Asian countries is deals involving Boeing planes. Those are the
types of things in which there is enormous de man
in Asia four and the President has announced that with Vietnam,

(21:54):
with Cambodia, with Malaysia.

Speaker 5 (21:56):
The President also.

Speaker 12 (21:57):
Expects to make a similar type of announcement tomorrow with Japan.
So that's something that really does matter a lot in
terms of a significant type of item that is very
much in demand in Asia and something that certainly benefits
the Boeing company as well as the people that work.

Speaker 5 (22:17):
For Boeing in our economy.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
And that was the centerpiece and Cutter too, wasn't it.

Speaker 12 (22:21):
It was he had It was a very big deal.
That's something you know, the President really talented. He continues
to tout, you know when he's back at the White House,
and I'm sure that's something that the President will seek
and has pretty much been ironed out, you know, as
it relates to what are the deliberables. You know. Coming
out of this Asia trip, which is almost one full
week in length, I went.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
To an Ohio State Michigan game at Ohio State. That
was pretty extraordinary. I used to go weekly to games
at LSU. That's where I went to college. All Right,
you had your first LSU Tiger game with the Governor
of Louisiana. Explain your experience.

Speaker 5 (22:57):
Oh, it was great. It was so exciting.

Speaker 12 (22:59):
My first see football game.

Speaker 1 (23:01):
My first LSU football game was LSU against A and M.

Speaker 5 (23:04):
A and M destroyed LSU that's one of.

Speaker 12 (23:07):
The reasons why LSU is now looking for a new
football coach. But it was a great weekend. Went to
a tailgate at the governor's mansion and he and the
first Lady of Louisiana, Sharon Landry, couldn't have been nicer.
And it was a great experience.

Speaker 5 (23:21):
Really exciting.

Speaker 12 (23:21):
One hundred thousand bus in Tiger Stadium and that is
just an experience to behold. I've been to a lot
of NFL football games. I don't think anything tops how
loud it gets at Tiger Stadium.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
I always describe it this way. You go to some
crazy games and you're like, can you do that? You
go to an LSU game and you're constantly going is
that legal? Is that legal? Did you ever get a
Budan ball before it was over?

Speaker 5 (23:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 12 (23:45):
I mean, look, I had some incredible food when I
was down in Baton Rouge, and you know, I think
that that's one of the great things about this weekend,
all the food that I had, not only at those
tailgates but also in the suites. And it was a
fun week and my wife and I had a great time.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
I'm glad you got to experience LSU. You can learn
more about what's happening in Asia as well as in Washington,
d C. The White House Briefing Room with John Decker
will be up about an hour after our show nine
Eastern or right as our show's ending nine Eastern. The
White House Briefing Room with John Decker. Encourage everyone to
listen to that. And by the way, when you find
it on your iHeart app go ahead and give it
a give it a what.

Speaker 5 (24:23):
Do they call that a preset?

Speaker 1 (24:26):
Preset? That's it. Give it a preset. That way, It's
waiting for you every morning. Glad to have you back. John.

Speaker 3 (24:36):
This is your morning show with Michael Deltrona.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
Can't have your morning show without your voice. Would never
have your morning show without your voice. The talkbacks we go.
We start with Bill and Wilmington, Delaware.

Speaker 13 (24:51):
Good morning, Michael. This is Bill from Wilmington, Delaware. Love
listening to your show. But once again today I've listened
to your what three times now? You've announced football scores
and you have dissed the Eagles all three times they
won against the Giants yesterday.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
I have a great day. Thank oh, I forgot about
that and scattable out for this season. One of my
handful of favorite players to watch this year in the NFL,
I lost a lot of reason to watch. But yeah,
that's a huge one, big revenge for the Philadelphia Eagles
in that matchup with the Giants. Next up is Julian Clarksville, Tennessee.

Speaker 14 (25:27):
Good morning, Michael.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
This is Julie from Parksville, and I think you are
absolutely spot on with your four point suggestions for making discovernment.

Speaker 12 (25:37):
Run a little bit better.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
My one thought with the same day voting would be
to make it a national holiday, and then if.

Speaker 12 (25:44):
They absolutely have to have to have to have their
early voting.

Speaker 2 (25:49):
No more than a week.

Speaker 13 (25:51):
That should be plenty. Just my two cents worth, I.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
Agree, all right, and Roger wrote, good morning, Michael. I
just celebrated my twenty third wedding anniversary yesterday. As I
reflected on this past year, I realized how much personal
improvement I've been able to accomplish. I attribute much of
this to the positive influence of both you and your
morning show. Thank you and have a safe and productive day.
Well you're far too kind, Blake writes, our house growing

(26:17):
up was a polling place. Several times voting was one
day only, and we survived Cathy wrote from Ohio. Early
voting has already started in Ohio. There should be no
early voting vote an election day or if one is
sick er out of town, maybe absentee. Well, the research
suggested somewhere around one to two weeks tops is what

(26:40):
we should have. Hey, guess what you're just in time
for a right hour. This is CNN.

Speaker 15 (26:46):
This is the news, and that's why more people are
watching the cartoon network.

Speaker 3 (26:50):
Stunge Lobbery runs right now.

Speaker 1 (26:51):
I'm a big, good Democrat. This is like a gold
stall in a past.

Speaker 9 (26:56):
You should have a government that just minds its own
damn business.

Speaker 1 (26:58):
And I don't know how many of these you can
get in, but I think it's siggest. I don't like
to play shirts and skins Republicans versus Democrats, but boy,
I don't think I've ever found the Democrats with less
of a message and less messengers and the proof of
sounds of the day, starting with one member of Congress
trying to make a typical White House renovation that the

(27:20):
taxpayers aren't even paying for, some kind of an American
crisis with Bill Maher.

Speaker 16 (27:24):
Listen for the country as you face this fork in
the road, is how way do you turn?

Speaker 1 (27:30):
Which way do you want to turn?

Speaker 16 (27:32):
Because we watched this week the destruction of a symbol
of this government, of our democracy, of our pluralistic society.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
The White House, the East Wing. Yeah, a lot of
It's a building.

Speaker 16 (27:47):
Okay, Bill, it's a building maybe to you, but to
a lot of Americans it's not.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
And I'm gonna tell you.

Speaker 16 (27:51):
I'm gonna tell you. As a young kid growing up
in DC, well my daddy took me by that building.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
It meant something to not destroying the building. They're doing
a renovation. Did you think they were destroying the building
when Obama did? It would taxpayers money?

Speaker 5 (28:09):
Okay?

Speaker 17 (28:09):
First of all, I agree, I said, you know, he
should have gotten the permits, and that's.

Speaker 1 (28:15):
How he does things.

Speaker 10 (28:16):
I recklessness.

Speaker 17 (28:17):
But it is just a building. First of all, that
part of the building wasn't always there.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
President's got it.

Speaker 17 (28:23):
Presidents do change the buildings. Next and put in a
bowling alley. Obama made the tennis court of basketball court.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
I can't get this mad about everything.

Speaker 13 (28:32):
Mike.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
You know it's bad when you lose. Bill maher Hey,
never mind facts. Right, Here's Pritzker on with Brett bhar
trying to lie his way out of the murder rate
in Chicago.

Speaker 18 (28:45):
It didn't go, well, why does Chicago have the highest
murder rate of all the big cities.

Speaker 6 (28:52):
Well, we are not in the top thirty in terms
of our murder rate and rate our murder.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Rate, we're not in the top thirty in murder rate,
to which Brett's got to look down at the notes
and correct them.

Speaker 6 (29:07):
It has been cut in half over the last four years,
and every year it's gone down by double digits. And
if you look at all of the violent crime over
the last four years, we've.

Speaker 18 (29:16):
All gone to a US cities seventeen point forty seven
per one hundred thousand population. Chicago's number one over Philadelphia, Houston, Dallas,
San Antonio, Phoenix, Los Angeles, New York, and San.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
Diego three times Los Angeles. What I'm explaining to you
is crime. Look, you can pull statistics up.

Speaker 6 (29:34):
I'm explaining to you that our murder rate has been
cut in half. And very importantly, Brett and you got
to hear this, very importantly, we've been doing the things
that are necessary to bring crime down right. We've invested
in community violence interruption, we've been.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
If we believe your narrative and ignore the factual numbers.
HACKEM Jeffries. He didn't have it much easier with CBS
this Weekendstally.

Speaker 14 (29:59):
You've been using the term rigged elections in reference to
the upcoming midterms. Democrats were appalled when President Trump used
language like that.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
How do you justify using that? Now?

Speaker 14 (30:09):
Do you undermine faith for voters?

Speaker 1 (30:13):
You need to show up.

Speaker 19 (30:15):
No, I've been using that term in the context of
Donald Trump's unprecedented effort to jerryman their congressional maps in
a partisan fashion all across the country in order to
rig the midterm elections and deny the ability of the
American people to actually decide who should be in the
majority as it relates to the House of.

Speaker 14 (30:36):
You know, Democrats are also going through jerry mandering and redistricting.

Speaker 19 (30:42):
No, no, no, Well, Democrats are going to push back
aggressively to make sure that we have fair maps across
the country.

Speaker 1 (30:50):
And that's why in Massachusetts there's taxation with no represented.
I mean, I have never seen the Democrat Party less serious,
worst narrative and worse messengers than right now. That reared
it's ugly head too. When Jake Tapper point blank asked

(31:14):
Chris Murphy if he's willing to let Americans go hungry
in order to save Obamacare. And here's what the Congress
the Senator had to say.

Speaker 20 (31:23):
Let's turn to the government shutdown. Funding for food stamps
is expected to run out at the end of this week.
This is happening because Democrats have not agreed to vote
to fund the government without the Republicans making concessions to
seriously change healthcare policy. So is this a trade off
you're willing to make and continue to make letting some
Americans go hungry until these Obamacare subsidies get extended.

Speaker 1 (31:49):
Well, let's be clear.

Speaker 15 (31:50):
We're shut down right now because Republicans are refusing to
even talk to Democrats about a bipartisan budget bill. As
you know, the reason that we didn't shut down for
four years when Joe Biden was president, it was because
Democrats negotiated with Republicans in every single one of those
short term or long term funding going This is demostratic
and Republican priorities. So the government is shut down because

(32:13):
Republicans have done something unprecedent. They have refused to talk
to Democrats about a bipartisan budget. Yes, we have priorities
just like they do. One of our priorities is pretty simple,
making sure that premiums don't go up by seventy five
percent on twenty two million families this fall. Now, the
reality is if they sat down to try to negotiate,
we could probably come up with something pretty quickly. The

(32:34):
President just announced twenty billion dollars going to bail out
the Argentinian economy. For twenty billion dollars, we could open
the government back up. That's enough money to relieve a
lot of pressure of these premium increases. So we could
get this deal done in a day if the President
was in DC rather than being overseas.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
It's Obamacare for illegals, or we're going to let them starve.
And then there's AOC doing an in color impersonation of
Adolf Hitler.

Speaker 21 (33:00):
Was built by the Irish escaping fan and Italians fleeing
fascism to escaping Holocaust, Black Americans fling six Jim Crow
latinos uh.

Speaker 1 (33:14):
And that's your Sounds of the Day for Monday, October
the twenty seventh year of Our Lord twenty twenty five.

Speaker 3 (33:25):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning show
with Michael enheld, Joano
