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 and 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.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Two three 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
Chno A Mikey.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
It's Joey.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
At the Tuesday, I got a coup of Coifianna.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Got a cup of Coifianna Danish Joey. Seven minutes after
the hour, the Senate went without a vote. We head
into our fourth week of government shutdown. President Trumps signing
an agreement with Japan to speed up cooperation on the
process of critical minerals. Gave a fiery speech on board
the USS George Washington to the troops. Amazon laying off
(01:01):
thirty thousand corporate workers. We're expecting the Fed to cut
interest rates again this week, and we are expecting Hurricane
Melissa to make landfall this morning. First stop Jamaica, our
first stop, your morning show, National correspondent hurricane expert Rory O'Neil.
Good morning, Michael, good morning.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
You know, the wind speeds from a Hurricane Melissa have
only intensified one hundred and seventy five mile per hour
sustained winds. On top of that wind gust topping two
hundred and fifteen miles per hour. Some reports that one
of the surveillance planes captured a gust or measured a
gust of two hundred and forty.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
One miles per hour. Luckily, this is the storm.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Is big in terms of the total wind field, but
the actual hurricane force winds is relatively small. It's only
about sixty miles across. But this thing is going to
be like a buzzsaw as it moves across Jamaica very slowly.
The only good news is that the forward speed of
the storm has moved up a little bit. It's now
moving at five miles an hour, not three miles an hour.
(02:04):
So hopefully relief will come a little bit sooner for Jamaica.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Yeah, and we we were keeping an eye on this,
I mean the winds, you know, that adds to the
storm searche. But what is the storm surge looking like?
Projection wise? For first Jamaica and then more importantly Cuba.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
Well right, and remember it's going to be a one
to two punch for storm search. So from the south
to as Melissa moves ashore, these storms move in a
counterclockwise motion.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
So sound on a popeye winding up a punch, right.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
Right, Imagine that it's going to.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Come up and on that.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
If you're imagining it as a clock Between twelve and
three is the toughest area of these storms, and as
it comes to shore, that three o'clock part is really
what has the biggest storm search.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
That could be about eighteen feet high.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Now, as the storm moves across Jamaica on the other side,
the counterclockwise movement is continuing. So now between nine and
twelve is the hard part, and that's going to be
coming down on the island and that could again give
part of another eight foot storm surge, roughly the same
as what Cuba could be getting in the worst case
scenario there For our folks in Guantanamo Bay.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
I'm remembering, you know, growing up in New Orleans and
you living in Florida, We've lived through many hurricanes and
I remember the first part of the hurricane coming through
and it being crazy, and then all of a sudden
the sun came out and we played football on the
golf course, and then all of a sudden, the back
end of the storm came and with it the flooding.
(03:34):
So you just never know what these things will do. Now,
the trajectory wise, in terms of Guantanamo Bay in Cuban,
our interests there. How's that looking.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
Yeah, that's on the friendlier side of the storm for
Guantanamo Bay, but still maybe a cat free or a
cat for a hurricane as it passes over. So they
have been doing evacuations of non essential personnel in advance,
getting the bases ready as they can. And a lot
of these areas have dealt with storms before they know drill,
but to see something with one hundred and seventy five
(04:03):
mile per hour winds, that's something different. And especially Jamaica,
they're looking at mud slides, washed out roads, washed out
bridges there go.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
The utility is the electric, the water.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
This is going to likely take a full rebuild for
a lot of the island.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Yeah, and we've talked about this yesterday. It is definitely
within the hurricane season, but a Cat five with this
level of wind and rain that's usually warmer waters earlier
in the hurricane season. It is rare to have one
this powerful this late, but have it we do. And
it hits Jamaica this morning, and that'll be a double
(04:39):
slap from morning to evening and then on to Cube.
But Rory appreciate it. We're gonna have more with Rory
in the third hour. We'll talk a little bit about
this new study that is out on American attitudes about
things like the NFL extending the season, even bad Bunny
that we're all divided over and that seemed to fall
on partisan lines in our latest survey of the day.
We'll have that for you coming up just a little bit,
(05:00):
and Ruby back in the third hour talkbacks. Can't have
your morning show without your voice.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
Kelly and Columbus Georgia. In reference to the AOC clip
you just played, why is she using biblical language? The
Book of Esther tells us for such a time as this,
and Jesus tells us to love our neighbors as ourselves.
That's funny. I didn't peg AOC as a regular Sunday
school attender.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Have a great day. Yeah, she's taunting Riley Gaines, telling
her to get a job when she's a mother and
taunting her over losing swim meets to men. Yeah, you know, AOC,
But again, if you weren't listening, it's AOC's fiery speech,
which first and foremost, why is the Democrat Party making
(05:46):
this New York City mayor's race a referendum for their party?
Now that only works for the socialist, Islamist communist side
of the party. We saw the governor. She's in the
worst position. Hokal has promised not to raise taxes, so
(06:06):
for Mom Donnie to go beyond pandering and actually deliver
on any of these promises, he's going to have to
raise taxes, individual tax rates as he's promising, and corporate
tax rates. If he raised the corporate tax rates to
too high, the exodus continues out of New York and
then there's no business jobs, minimum wage or any wage
(06:27):
for anybody, and it simply wouldn't happen. But he cannot
raise personal income tax to pay for free transit or
convenience stores or childcare without the governor's approval. And she
has pledged not to raise taxes, so she is in
(06:47):
the most awkward and then she shows up and delivers
the speech and tries to nuance it on childcare only.
But I mean, this is extremely dangerous, and so what
I laid out to you was I believe AOC is
going to be the front runner for the presidential nomination,
and I think she gave what she wants to launch
this as her platform for her run in twenty twenty eight.
(07:09):
Now I don't know how it plays out. I don't
know if there are DNC strategists that are allowing the
far left like a parasite, to just kill itself off.
But don't forget if the parasite should accidentally win, it
kills the hosts and then itself My prediction of one
(07:29):
or both parties being gone by the end of the decade,
this is really coming to a head in a storm.
But what you see is AOC at a Mamdani rally
laying out the new Democrat Party platform, which is Islamist,
anti Israel, and they'll get some help from the far
right on that or on that later, probably tomorrow with
David Snati, but also communistic and socialistic. It's either the
(07:54):
end of the Democrat Party or the end of this
civil war within its party, or they've effectively taken America
to the left with it could be the end of
our republic as we know it, So keep a good
eye on that. Kelly to Saint Louis.
Speaker 7 (08:07):
Now, I think my favorite part about the bad Bunny
super Bowl performance hooplah is that no one can really
force me to watch anything, and no one can force
anyone else to watch anything. And if I don't want
to watch the halftime show, hey, if I don't want
to watch the super Bowl just because the halftime performance
(08:28):
irks me, that's my complete and legal right and no
one can take that away from me.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Have a good morning, Michael, Thank you so much for
listening and being a part of the show. Listen, I'll
be the I'll be the adult in the room. America.
You got much much bigger problems than bad money. Personally,
I'd like to just get rid of these halftime shows.
Keep the halftime a normal length, pull like a Lenny Dawson.
(08:59):
Go off the field, go to the locker room, make
some adjustments, have a beer, smoke a cigarette, and let's
keep the focus on football. But that's just me, all right,
I bring up AOC Now remember this. I don't know
what you want to call them anymore. We used to
call it the socialist arm of the party. It's actually
the social justice is the name, but it's kind of
(09:20):
morph now. Or does Mom Donnie and some of the
squad represent a new forming Islamist I don't think the
socialists and the Islamists are gonna have a hard time
getting along and combining and combined what are they? And
I've never been able to really put my finger on it.
I think if you combine them, it might be thirty
six percent of the party, which should scream at you,
(09:44):
because remember how racists work. You have to have unity,
and you have to have energy, and whether the energy
is on a personality, a candidate or on a key
issue in a cycle. If you've got unity and you've
(10:06):
got energy, you've got turnout and you usually win, especially
Democrats because there used to be more Democrats than Republicans. Now,
the thirty six percent, and I don't know if it's
thirty two, but just for the sake of conversation, the
thirty six percent of the Democrat Party that would respond
to Mom Donnie, respond to Elizabeth Warren, respond to Bernie Sanders,
(10:30):
and yes, respond to AOC that thirty six percent is
very passionate very unified and very energized. That's why you
have so many people in the shutdown afraid of them.
I gotta find this clip because I tried to find
it earlier and I got lost. But I want you
to hear it, and I don't remember where I put it. Oh,
(10:52):
here it is. This is I have time. This is
speaker Johnson laying it out in different words as it
relates to the shutdown.
Speaker 8 (10:59):
Listen, that they have to appease the Marxist base, that
they're so concerned that they'll lose their jobs if they
don't appease the far left in their party. And they
sat in a back room and they made the calculation
that they would rather shut the government down and impose
all this pain on the American people because they believe
the Marxists, the far left in the base are more
active than hard working Americans people who go vote, And
(11:22):
so they made the calculation that it's worth it to them.
Every day gets better for us. We'll use the pain
as leverage for what to prove to the far left
base that they won't give in, that they'll fight Trump
and fight their Republicans.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
What are they fighting.
Speaker 8 (11:35):
It's a clean cr it's the same level of funding
that they have voted for as recently as earlier this year.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
So if they would do all this with the budget,
what will they do with the primary process? What will
they do with their messaging and narrative in a mid term?
Because I would suggest this thirty six percent is enough
to win a primary. I don't know if it's enough
to win a general. That much of the future is uncertain,
(12:03):
but what is certain unified, passionate, energized bingo and that's
why I believe AOC will be the front runner early
on as Bernie was, and he has passed the torch
to her. By the way, you have a new poll
out just to give you a quick little glimpse before
the music starts playing. Pete Buddhaging, believe it or not,
(12:24):
leads the twenty twenty eight field right now at nineteen
percent in New Hampshire. Now this is New Hampshire alone
in New Hampshire is not a great snapshot, I'll remind you.
Joe Biden came in seventh in New Hampshire and he
went on to be president. Gavin Newsom is close behind
at fifteen percent, and AOC is at fourteen percent, So
(12:45):
she is tied for second. But this is what I'm
getting at the Gavin Newsoms, the Pete Boodhajidge is they
won't have that early energy and turnout that AOC will.
She'll get off to a huge lead just like Bernie did.
The DNC will scramble and give you somebody like Rodney Manum.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
This is your morning show with Michael Deltono.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Hey, if you're just waking up. The Minnesota man is
facing federal charges. This is a twenty nine year old
anarchist arrested for allegedly offering forty five thousand dollars to
have Pam Bondy, our Attorney General killed.
Speaker 9 (13:29):
Tyler Avolos was arrested October the sixteenth after being accused
of posting the threat on TikTok.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Featured a photo of Bondi.
Speaker 9 (13:36):
With a sniperscope red dot on her forehead, along with
the text wanted Pam Bondy reward forty five thousand dollars
dead or alive, preferably dead. The post was reported to
the FBI on October the ninth. Avolos has a criminal
history of that includes a twenty twenty two Filliny stalking
conviction and at twenty sixteen misdemeanor domestic assault conviction. He
made an initial court appearance in Minneapolis earlier this month.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
By Mark Mayfield, Amazon's going to start laying off as
many as thirty thousand corporate workers starting today.
Speaker 10 (14:03):
Jobs represent nearly ten percent of the company's corporate workforce.
Amazon CEO Andy Jesse said over the summer that using
artificial intelligence would let the company operate with fewer human employees.
Paramount also announced around one thousand layoffs to take effect Wednesday,
with another thousand at some point in the near future.
I'm Tammy Trhio.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
President Trump's nearly week long visit to Asia continues. Earlier
this morning, which was late afternoon in Japan, the President
delivered remarks to American troops aboard the USS George Washington aircraft.
Speaker 11 (14:33):
We've never spent so much, and we've never spent it
more wisely. Because now we watch it, we spend it properly.
I'm also supporting it across the board. Pay rais for
every saleor and service cover.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Nothing might like that. Trump didn't hold back when he
said America's military is unrivaled in the world. Nobody makes
equipment like we do.
Speaker 11 (14:53):
Nobody makes the ammunition, the weapons, the.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Missiles and planes, none of it.
Speaker 11 (14:58):
And if they do, the America Sailor stands ready to
crush them and sink them, and wreck them and blast
them into oblivion.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Right.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Americans are divided over Bad Bunnies anticipated Super Bowl halftime performances.
According to a new Quinnipiac poll, forty eight percent of
respondence expressed support for Bad Bunny, twenty nine percent said
they disapproved, twenty four percent did not offer an opinion.
Oh write down partisan lines. Seventy four percent of Democrats approved,
sixty three percent of Republicans disapprove. The matrix it never fails.
(15:34):
It took eighteen innings last night, after six hundred pitches
in eighteen innings, Finally, Freddy Freeman, with a solo home
run in the bottom of the eighteenth gives the win
to the Dodgers over the Blue Jays, six to five.
The lead now two games to one. Game four is
tonight seven o'clock on Fox, and Monday Night Football was
all Patrick Mahomes three hundred yards passing three touchdowns, Chiefs
(15:55):
twenty eight seven over the Commander's birthdays today, Billionaire Bill
Gates is seventy Julia Roberts fifty eight, Brad Paisley fifty three,
and Joaquin Phoenix is fifty one. That's your birthday. Happy birthday,
So glad you were born. And thanks for waking up
with your morning show.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
This is your morning show with Michael del Chrono.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Hans von Spakowski will be joining us to connect the
dots on the massive subsidy scheme to prop up Obamacare momentarily,
and then of course John Decker's coming up next on
the President's Asian trip. First, want to get your voice
in here to WKBN and Youngstown, Ohio. We go with
our idea of the day.
Speaker 4 (16:36):
I'd like to have a no halftime show, no commercials
during the game, and just play all the commercials during
the halftime.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Wow, now you're talking feature football and then feature your
commercials at halftime. What a novel idea? All right, if
you're just waking up. The Senate went without a vote
as the government shutdown enters its fourth week. Hurricane Melissa
bearing down a Cat five hurricane, some wins up to
(17:06):
two hundred plus miles an hour heading to Jamaica this morning.
Then the back end will slap Jamaica tonight and then
it's on to Cuba. The President signed agreement with Japan
to speed up the cooperation in the process of critical minerals,
and we do expect the FED to cut interest rates
later this week. Adam is on very little sleep. My
(17:27):
son suspiciously goes from two letters out of sequence to
solving the wordle in his next guest. And that's on
no sleep because I know he was up watching the
Dodgers as well. Game three of the World Series went
over six hundred pitches and eighteen innings before Freddie Freeman
hit a solo home run the walk off win for
(17:48):
the Dodgers six to five over the Jays. They now
lead two games to one. Game four. Tonight on Fox Well,
President Trump will be meeting with the new Prime Minister
of Japan as he continues his swing through Asia. White
House correspondent John Decker's here to explain why the trip
is so important and the latest down the developments, including
a fiery speech on board the USS. George Washington, Good morning, John.
Speaker 5 (18:09):
Yeah, that speech happened just within the.
Speaker 12 (18:12):
Past few hours. The President is now attending a dinner
in his honor in Tokyo, Japan that is hosted by
the new Japanese Prime Minister. The US and Japan have
already reached a trade deal that was several months ago.
Japan pays a tariff rate of fifteen percent for all
of the goods from Japan coming into our country. And
(18:34):
the President, as you know, earlier in his trip of Malaysia,
reached trade deals or frameworks for trade deals with four
Southeast Asian countries. The President wrapping up his trip with
his dinner this evening, and then tomorrow he'll travel to.
Speaker 5 (18:49):
South Korea for the APEC summit.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
All right, so in that summit, we think or at
least it has been signaled that everything's in line to
final lies the TikTok sale that's huge, as well as
finalize this trade deal with China, perhaps the biggest piece
of this whole puzzle, and that would say a lot
(19:13):
about how much ground has been gained on fentanyl as
well as some of the trade disparities. We think we
got a.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
Deal that's exactly right. And I think that America's farmers
are very.
Speaker 12 (19:23):
Much interested in this trade deal. Because according to Scott Bessant,
the Treasury Secretary who met with his Chinese counterpart just
a few days ago in Malaysia. China has agreed to
resume its purchases of large amounts large volumes of American soybeans,
and they have essentially boycotted those purchases for the full
(19:45):
year that President Trump has been in office.
Speaker 5 (19:48):
Now those purchases will resume. So that's good news for
those farmers. And it really is shaping up to be
a very successful Asia trip for President Trump.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
So when John goes to LSU and they get blown
out by Texas A and m Coach gets fired, John
stays up and watches eighteen innings of the Blue Jays
finally losing. Does Ze get the Blue Jays manager fired?
Time will tell you can learn more about what John's covering.
The White House Briefing Room is his podcast. It'll be
up by nine Eastern later this morning. The White House
(20:19):
Briefing Room with John Decker. Find that podcast on your
iHeart app and then lock it in. Make it a
preset that way, it's a button away every morning. Thanks
John for joining us. All right, forty minutes after the hour,
you might remember Obamacare, and really preceding that, we go
to Hillary Clinton. She was gonna set up a single
(20:40):
payer system, a government run healthcare as first lady commissioned
to do that. It failed and it didn't help. The
newt Gingrich came along and the Republicans got control of Congress.
Two years into the presidency, dashes all their dreams. Then
Obama comes along, same apparat to Saint Podesta. They set
(21:02):
up Obamacare. Remember you got to vote for it before
you read it. We'll find out what's in it after
we vote. Some have concluded Obamacare was designed to fail,
and fail it did, starting with its website, and then
inevitably it did not ensure everyone. In fact, very few
more than were uninsured to create Obamacare, and premiums didn't
(21:25):
go down, they actually went up, and the quality of
care didn't go up, it went down, and then it
all got supersized during COVID. What's really going on here, well,
which you have are massive subsidies going to the insurance
companies and massive amount of lobbying dollars to ensure that
(21:48):
money continues to flow wide. That's how you hide the premiums. Remember,
everything got shuffled from checkout to premiums because everybody wasn't
paying for healthcare. You achieved nothing broke, designed to break,
so then you would have to go to a single
payer system, but in the process we have the shell
game being played. You got a lot of people getting
(22:10):
healthcare getting subsidized by taxpayers. It's a big, massive subsidy
scheme and that may have a lot to do with
why the government is still shut down and the Democrats
won't budge. Hans von Spakowsky from the Heritage Foundation Senior
Fellow is here. Hans, I saw this story and I thought,
right up your wheelhouse, you and David Zanati, this is
(22:33):
so up your wheelhouse. Connect the dots for everybody, because
I think this makes sense in terms of the government
shutdown and where did the failed Obamacare go? And why
haven't we talked about it for a decade because they've
been hiding it. Well, they have.
Speaker 13 (22:47):
But the amount of money out of the federal budget
is like half a trillion dollars.
Speaker 5 (22:55):
I mean, it's a huge amount.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
And what it's.
Speaker 13 (22:59):
Been doing is subsidizing not people who are poor.
Speaker 5 (23:04):
That's not the situation at all.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
In fact, it is.
Speaker 5 (23:08):
Subsidizing insurance for lots.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
And lots of enroll leagues.
Speaker 13 (23:14):
Who are way over In fact, there's one study shows
four hundred percent above the federal poverty level. So this
whole program, this whole program was designed to subsidize government
healthcare and eventually lead to it being the entire healthcare system.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
So Obamacare a huge failure by design, propped up until
it falls with these subsidies. And then you have the middleman,
the massive lobbying dollars to paid and bought career politicians.
How do you break the shell game?
Speaker 5 (23:57):
Well, you know what's interesting about this is that remember Schumer.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
And the Democrats are.
Speaker 13 (24:04):
Refusing to fund the government over these subsidies. Yet why
are they ending.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Well, they were.
Speaker 13 (24:12):
Extended during COVID, and Schumer and all the Democrats voted
for them to end in December. So they're trying to
reverse their prior vote, which said, well, we're only going
to have these subsidies during this period of time.
Speaker 5 (24:33):
Well, COVID is long over, but.
Speaker 13 (24:35):
They are in bed with not just the insurance companies,
but the fact that look, secretly, all of this is
to lead down the path to government healthcare the kind
that England has, the kind of Canada has eventually.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
I mean, that's what they want to have happened. And look,
I'm sure you saw this.
Speaker 13 (25:01):
This is such an extreme position that they just lost.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
The federal good of federal employees. The unions. Yeah, the
Federal Employees union just flipped on the Democrats. Although wouldn't Chucky.
If Chucky were honest and we hooked a light detector
up to him, he would say, well, of course I
was being reasonable. That was a supersized subsidy to prop
(25:26):
up the insurance companies during COVID, and COVID was over,
so of course I voted that. But since then, the
crazy left in my party wants us to just fight, fight, fight,
no matter what and just you know, be a complete
dysfunctional opposition to Trump. So that's the inconsistency. But you
know where this is headed. If that crazy left portion
(25:50):
of their party can control them to hurt their own
constituents by extending this shutdown, well they're going to control
the narrative heading into the midterm and certainly beyond that.
Eight I think we got a glimpse of that with
AOC speech for Mom Donnie, that they are going to
go full socialist. That means government healthcare, that means free food,
(26:11):
free housing, they're all rights of every human being. So
I don't think there's a future for Chuckie Schumer but
I think this is the future. But you know, most
people in talk radio we're just talking about, well they
want to give free healthcare to illegals. No, it's it's
a way worse game than that.
Speaker 13 (26:30):
Well, you're right about that, and let me tell you
anyone who thinks that's a good idea.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
I look, at one.
Speaker 5 (26:39):
Point in my past, I actually worked for.
Speaker 13 (26:41):
The US division of a Canadian company. All the Canadians
there were so happy to be in the US.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
You know why.
Speaker 5 (26:48):
Healthcare Canadian system.
Speaker 13 (26:50):
Yeah, under the Canadian system, if they wanted to see
a doctor, it could take them six months, eight.
Speaker 5 (26:57):
Months, a year before they could get in.
Speaker 13 (27:00):
They could not get the kind of.
Speaker 5 (27:01):
Procedures they needed to wear. Us here, they made a
phone call and they could go see their doctor next week.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
Well, you know they would happy that. I don't know how.
I don't know if you have kids or how old
they are, Hans, But you know I looked at my
daughter and I said, look, you know you're talking about everything,
but why wouldn't you become a dermatologist In America today?
It is so hard to get into a dermatologist and
you may have something that's suspicious. It looks like it
could be skin cancer and then you'll call and set
(27:28):
the appointment. It'll be like next April. I mean it's insane.
I mean, we need more dermatologists. But when it's cancer
and you can't get in to get an MRI, get
a diagnosis, let alone early radiation, no, that's life or death. So, yeah,
there are problems with the single payer system that these
are not lessons we need to learn. We just need
to look right across the border to see them. All right,
(27:51):
So they have propped up the failure of Obamacare. It
kind of got off the radar of all Americans, and
the way it's been able to maintain itself is this
shell game with subsidies, and now it leads to this shutdown.
So what's the bottom line on this. What can my
listeners understand that listeners to other shows can't and what
(28:12):
must come of this?
Speaker 13 (28:14):
Well, we're about to reach a historical record in the
longest shutdown ever.
Speaker 5 (28:21):
I don't think Schumer and these people.
Speaker 13 (28:22):
Are going to back down for quite a while. This
could go through potentially the end of the year because
they have put their political ambitions and they're unwilling to
use common sense.
Speaker 5 (28:40):
I think what's going to.
Speaker 13 (28:41):
Have to happen is even more unions are going to
have to break away from their support and start pressuring them.
If that happens, then finally they may agree to a
clean continuing.
Speaker 5 (28:55):
Resolution and this may come to an end.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Yeah. Now to mention, we head into November and December
and then you've got holiday travel. Now that's not going
to vie well for them either. But yeah, I think
what you're seeing is the setup. But look, we've said
for the longest time the Left doesn't have a messenger
or a message. Well, the messengers are starting to come forward.
It's gonna be AOC. It's going to be Mom Donnie.
(29:18):
Bernie has handed the torch to AOC. So just as
Bernie led in the primaries in twenty sixteen and twenty twenty,
she'll get the early lead. The DNC will scramble, try
to give you romy Manuel with somebody like Shapiro or
the governor of Maryland. But they're going to run on
the parasite. They're going to run on full blown socialism,
and I think that's going to be their demanded message
(29:40):
in the midterm and in the presidential All interesting times
are ahead. But thanks for connecting the dots on this
shell game to keep Obamacare propped up so that it
can fail, so that we can get a failed government
healthcare system. Hans von Spakowski. You can read his great
work at Heritage dot org. Thanks for finding time for
us this morning, Hans.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
This is your morning show with Michael Deltono.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
The Minnesota man is facing federal charges for allegedly offering
forty five thousand dollars. Oh, those crazy leftists. They're not
playing well with others in the sand this time forty
five grand to kill the Attorney General Pam Bondi.
Speaker 9 (30:20):
Tyler Avolos was arrested October the sixteenth after being accused
of posting the threat on TikTok. Featured a photo of
Bondi with a sniperscope red dot on her forehead, along
with the text wanted Pam Bondy reward forty five thousand
dollars dead or alive, preferably dead. The post was reported
to the FBI on October the ninth. Avlos has a
criminal history that includes a twenty twenty two pilliny stalking
(30:42):
conviction and at twenty sixteen misdemeanor domestic assault conviction. He
made an initial court appearance in Minneapolis earlier this month
by Mark Mainfield.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
President Trump keeps racking up the victories on this Asian trip,
and the biggest are still to come in South Korea
with President and She of China. But the week long
visit continues, and Tammy Trio has the update.
Speaker 10 (31:00):
Earlier today, he spoke to American troops aboard the USS
George Washington aircraft carrier in Yokosuka, Japan, where he touted
record military spending.
Speaker 11 (31:08):
We've never spent so much, and we've never spent it
more wisely. Because now we watch it, we spend it properly.
I'm also supporting it across the board pay race for
every sailor and service medor in the United States South US.
Speaker 10 (31:22):
Trump is coming off talks with Japan's first female prime minister,
focusing on security, trade, and defense spending. It's the latest
stop for the President on a multi day trip to
Asia that includes a high stake sit down with Chinese
President g in South Korea later this week. I'm Tammy Trihio.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
Demi Lovado will head out on tour for the first
time since twenty twenty two next year. The singer announced
her it's not that Deep Tour. It'll kick off on
April e than Charlotte, North Carolina. Twenty three day tour
will also take her to cities like Nashville, Tennessee, Boston,
New York, Los Angeles. It wraps up on May twenty
fifth in Houston. Tickets pre sale go on sale October thirtieth,
(32:00):
and general online sales Halloween October thirty first. Well, today
is quite possibly the greatest day of the year for
at least nine out of ten of us.
Speaker 14 (32:09):
Today is National Chocolate Day. It's okay to greet that
with the cheer. Chocolate's the best. It's been a part
of human life since eleven hundred BC. Its roots are Aztec,
but Germany's the country that produces the most for consumption.
Eating it is known to trigger a chemical reaction that
makes you feel good. And who doesn't want that for
the one percent of the population who don't like chocolate
(32:29):
more For us, celebrating today is easy.
Speaker 10 (32:32):
Get some chocolate and eat it. I'm Bree Tennis.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
In addition to the Dodger win late night last night,
Monday Night Football was all Chiefs Patrick Mahomes two hundred
ninety nine yards, three touchdowns. Chiefs twenty eight to seven
over the commander's birthdays. Today, Billionaire Bill Gates is seventy,
Actress Julia Roberts is fifty eight, country star Brad Paisley
fifty three, an actor Joaquin Phoenix is fifty one. If
it's your birthday, Happy birthday. So glad you were born
(32:57):
and thanks for making your morning show up part of
your morning. All right, we got Sounds of the day,
the latest and Hurricane Melissa and the bad Bunny controversy
in the NFL, and Colonel Stephen Bouchie joins us next
to talk about that Cambodia Thailand peace deal.
Speaker 3 (33:18):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michael Vindheld Jo Noo
Hi, It's Michael.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Your morning show airs live five to eight am Central,
six to nine Eastern and 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.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Two three 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
Chno A Mikey.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
It's Joey.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
At the Tuesday, I got a coup of Coifianna.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Got a cup of Coifianna Danish Joey. Seven minutes after
the hour, the Senate went without a vote. We head
into our fourth week of government shutdown. President Trumps signing
an agreement with Japan to speed up cooperation on the
process of critical minerals. Gave a fiery speech on board
the USS George Washington to the troops. Amazon laying off
(01:01):
thirty thousand corporate workers. We're expecting the Fed to cut
interest rates again this week, and we are expecting Hurricane
Melissa to make landfall this morning. First stop Jamaica, our
first stop, your morning show, National correspondent hurricane expert Rory O'Neil.
Good morning, Michael, good morning.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
You know, the wind speeds from a Hurricane Melissa have
only intensified one hundred and seventy five mile per hour
sustained winds. On top of that wind gust topping two
hundred and fifteen miles per hour. Some reports that one
of the surveillance planes captured a gust or measured a
gust of two hundred and forty.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
One miles per hour. Luckily, this is the storm.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Is big in terms of the total wind field, but
the actual hurricane force winds is relatively small. It's only
about sixty miles across. But this thing is going to
be like a buzzsaw as it moves across Jamaica very slowly.
The only good news is that the forward speed of
the storm has moved up a little bit. It's now
moving at five miles an hour, not three miles an hour.
(02:04):
So hopefully relief will come a little bit sooner for Jamaica.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Yeah, and we we were keeping an eye on this,
I mean the winds, you know, that adds to the
storm searche. But what is the storm surge looking like?
Projection wise? For first Jamaica and then more importantly Cuba.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
Well right, and remember it's going to be a one
to two punch for storm search. So from the south
to as Melissa moves ashore, these storms move in a
counterclockwise motion.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
So sound on a popeye winding up a punch, right.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
Right, Imagine that it's going to.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Come up and on that.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
If you're imagining it as a clock Between twelve and
three is the toughest area of these storms, and as
it comes to shore, that three o'clock part is really
what has the biggest storm search.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
That could be about eighteen feet high.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Now, as the storm moves across Jamaica on the other side,
the counterclockwise movement is continuing. So now between nine and
twelve is the hard part, and that's going to be
coming down on the island and that could again give
part of another eight foot storm surge, roughly the same
as what Cuba could be getting in the worst case
scenario there For our folks in Guantanamo Bay.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
I'm remembering, you know, growing up in New Orleans and
you living in Florida, We've lived through many hurricanes and
I remember the first part of the hurricane coming through
and it being crazy, and then all of a sudden
the sun came out and we played football on the
golf course, and then all of a sudden, the back
end of the storm came and with it the flooding.
(03:34):
So you just never know what these things will do. Now,
the trajectory wise, in terms of Guantanamo Bay in Cuban,
our interests there. How's that looking.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
Yeah, that's on the friendlier side of the storm for
Guantanamo Bay, but still maybe a cat free or a
cat for a hurricane as it passes over. So they
have been doing evacuations of non essential personnel in advance,
getting the bases ready as they can. And a lot
of these areas have dealt with storms before they know drill,
but to see something with one hundred and seventy five
(04:03):
mile per hour winds, that's something different. And especially Jamaica,
they're looking at mud slides, washed out roads, washed out
bridges there go.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
The utility is the electric, the water.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
This is going to likely take a full rebuild for
a lot of the island.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Yeah, and we've talked about this yesterday. It is definitely
within the hurricane season, but a Cat five with this
level of wind and rain that's usually warmer waters earlier
in the hurricane season. It is rare to have one
this powerful this late, but have it we do. And
it hits Jamaica this morning, and that'll be a double
(04:39):
slap from morning to evening and then on to Cube.
But Rory appreciate it. We're gonna have more with Rory
in the third hour. We'll talk a little bit about
this new study that is out on American attitudes about
things like the NFL extending the season, even bad Bunny
that we're all divided over and that seemed to fall
on partisan lines in our latest survey of the day.
We'll have that for you coming up just a little bit,
(05:00):
and Ruby back in the third hour talkbacks. Can't have
your morning show without your voice.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
Kelly and Columbus Georgia. In reference to the AOC clip
you just played, why is she using biblical language? The
Book of Esther tells us for such a time as this,
and Jesus tells us to love our neighbors as ourselves.
That's funny. I didn't peg AOC as a regular Sunday
school attender.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Have a great day. Yeah, she's taunting Riley Gaines, telling
her to get a job when she's a mother and
taunting her over losing swim meets to men. Yeah, you know, AOC,
But again, if you weren't listening, it's AOC's fiery speech,
which first and foremost, why is the Democrat Party making
(05:46):
this New York City mayor's race a referendum for their party?
Now that only works for the socialist, Islamist communist side
of the party. We saw the governor. She's in the
worst position. Hokal has promised not to raise taxes, so
(06:06):
for Mom Donnie to go beyond pandering and actually deliver
on any of these promises, he's going to have to
raise taxes, individual tax rates as he's promising, and corporate
tax rates. If he raised the corporate tax rates to
too high, the exodus continues out of New York and
then there's no business jobs, minimum wage or any wage
(06:27):
for anybody, and it simply wouldn't happen. But he cannot
raise personal income tax to pay for free transit or
convenience stores or childcare without the governor's approval. And she
has pledged not to raise taxes, so she is in
(06:47):
the most awkward and then she shows up and delivers
the speech and tries to nuance it on childcare only.
But I mean, this is extremely dangerous, and so what
I laid out to you was I believe AOC is
going to be the front runner for the presidential nomination,
and I think she gave what she wants to launch
this as her platform for her run in twenty twenty eight.
(07:09):
Now I don't know how it plays out. I don't
know if there are DNC strategists that are allowing the
far left like a parasite, to just kill itself off.
But don't forget if the parasite should accidentally win, it
kills the hosts and then itself My prediction of one
(07:29):
or both parties being gone by the end of the decade,
this is really coming to a head in a storm.
But what you see is AOC at a Mamdani rally
laying out the new Democrat Party platform, which is Islamist,
anti Israel, and they'll get some help from the far
right on that or on that later, probably tomorrow with
David Snati, but also communistic and socialistic. It's either the
(07:54):
end of the Democrat Party or the end of this
civil war within its party, or they've effectively taken America
to the left with it could be the end of
our republic as we know it, So keep a good
eye on that. Kelly to Saint Louis.
Speaker 7 (08:07):
Now, I think my favorite part about the bad Bunny
super Bowl performance hooplah is that no one can really
force me to watch anything, and no one can force
anyone else to watch anything. And if I don't want
to watch the halftime show, hey, if I don't want
to watch the super Bowl just because the halftime performance
(08:28):
irks me, that's my complete and legal right and no
one can take that away from me.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Have a good morning, Michael, Thank you so much for
listening and being a part of the show. Listen, I'll
be the I'll be the adult in the room. America.
You got much much bigger problems than bad money. Personally,
I'd like to just get rid of these halftime shows.
Keep the halftime a normal length, pull like a Lenny Dawson.
(08:59):
Go off the field, go to the locker room, make
some adjustments, have a beer, smoke a cigarette, and let's
keep the focus on football. But that's just me, all right,
I bring up AOC Now remember this. I don't know
what you want to call them anymore. We used to
call it the socialist arm of the party. It's actually
the social justice is the name, but it's kind of
(09:20):
morph now. Or does Mom Donnie and some of the
squad represent a new forming Islamist I don't think the
socialists and the Islamists are gonna have a hard time
getting along and combining and combined what are they? And
I've never been able to really put my finger on it.
I think if you combine them, it might be thirty
six percent of the party, which should scream at you,
(09:44):
because remember how racists work. You have to have unity,
and you have to have energy, and whether the energy
is on a personality, a candidate or on a key
issue in a cycle. If you've got unity and you've
(10:06):
got energy, you've got turnout and you usually win, especially
Democrats because there used to be more Democrats than Republicans. Now,
the thirty six percent, and I don't know if it's
thirty two, but just for the sake of conversation, the
thirty six percent of the Democrat Party that would respond
to Mom Donnie, respond to Elizabeth Warren, respond to Bernie Sanders,
(10:30):
and yes, respond to AOC that thirty six percent is
very passionate very unified and very energized. That's why you
have so many people in the shutdown afraid of them.
I gotta find this clip because I tried to find
it earlier and I got lost. But I want you
to hear it, and I don't remember where I put it. Oh,
(10:52):
here it is. This is I have time. This is
speaker Johnson laying it out in different words as it
relates to the shutdown.
Speaker 8 (10:59):
Listen, that they have to appease the Marxist base, that
they're so concerned that they'll lose their jobs if they
don't appease the far left in their party. And they
sat in a back room and they made the calculation
that they would rather shut the government down and impose
all this pain on the American people because they believe
the Marxists, the far left in the base are more
active than hard working Americans people who go vote, And
(11:22):
so they made the calculation that it's worth it to them.
Every day gets better for us. We'll use the pain
as leverage for what to prove to the far left
base that they won't give in, that they'll fight Trump
and fight their Republicans.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
What are they fighting.
Speaker 8 (11:35):
It's a clean cr it's the same level of funding
that they have voted for as recently as earlier this year.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
So if they would do all this with the budget,
what will they do with the primary process? What will
they do with their messaging and narrative in a mid term?
Because I would suggest this thirty six percent is enough
to win a primary. I don't know if it's enough
to win a general. That much of the future is uncertain,
(12:03):
but what is certain unified, passionate, energized bingo and that's
why I believe AOC will be the front runner early
on as Bernie was, and he has passed the torch
to her. By the way, you have a new poll
out just to give you a quick little glimpse before
the music starts playing. Pete Buddhaging, believe it or not,
(12:24):
leads the twenty twenty eight field right now at nineteen
percent in New Hampshire. Now this is New Hampshire alone
in New Hampshire is not a great snapshot, I'll remind you.
Joe Biden came in seventh in New Hampshire and he
went on to be president. Gavin Newsom is close behind
at fifteen percent, and AOC is at fourteen percent, So
(12:45):
she is tied for second. But this is what I'm
getting at the Gavin Newsoms, the Pete Boodhajidge is they
won't have that early energy and turnout that AOC will.
She'll get off to a huge lead just like Bernie did.
The DNC will scramble and give you somebody like Rodney Manum.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
This is your morning show with Michael Deltono.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Hey, if you're just waking up. The Minnesota man is
facing federal charges. This is a twenty nine year old
anarchist arrested for allegedly offering forty five thousand dollars to
have Pam Bondy, our Attorney General killed.
Speaker 9 (13:29):
Tyler Avolos was arrested October the sixteenth after being accused
of posting the threat on TikTok.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Featured a photo of Bondi.
Speaker 9 (13:36):
With a sniperscope red dot on her forehead, along with
the text wanted Pam Bondy reward forty five thousand dollars
dead or alive, preferably dead. The post was reported to
the FBI on October the ninth. Avolos has a criminal
history of that includes a twenty twenty two Filliny stalking
conviction and at twenty sixteen misdemeanor domestic assault conviction. He
made an initial court appearance in Minneapolis earlier this month.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
By Mark Mayfield, Amazon's going to start laying off as
many as thirty thousand corporate workers starting today.
Speaker 10 (14:03):
Jobs represent nearly ten percent of the company's corporate workforce.
Amazon CEO Andy Jesse said over the summer that using
artificial intelligence would let the company operate with fewer human employees.
Paramount also announced around one thousand layoffs to take effect Wednesday,
with another thousand at some point in the near future.
I'm Tammy Trhio.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
President Trump's nearly week long visit to Asia continues. Earlier
this morning, which was late afternoon in Japan, the President
delivered remarks to American troops aboard the USS George Washington aircraft.
Speaker 11 (14:33):
We've never spent so much, and we've never spent it
more wisely. Because now we watch it, we spend it properly.
I'm also supporting it across the board. Pay rais for
every saleor and service cover.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Nothing might like that. Trump didn't hold back when he
said America's military is unrivaled in the world. Nobody makes
equipment like we do.
Speaker 11 (14:53):
Nobody makes the ammunition, the weapons, the.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Missiles and planes, none of it.
Speaker 11 (14:58):
And if they do, the America Sailor stands ready to
crush them and sink them, and wreck them and blast
them into oblivion.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Right.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Americans are divided over Bad Bunnies anticipated Super Bowl halftime performances.
According to a new Quinnipiac poll, forty eight percent of
respondence expressed support for Bad Bunny, twenty nine percent said
they disapproved, twenty four percent did not offer an opinion.
Oh write down partisan lines. Seventy four percent of Democrats approved,
sixty three percent of Republicans disapprove. The matrix it never fails.
(15:34):
It took eighteen innings last night, after six hundred pitches
in eighteen innings, Finally, Freddy Freeman, with a solo home
run in the bottom of the eighteenth gives the win
to the Dodgers over the Blue Jays, six to five.
The lead now two games to one. Game four is
tonight seven o'clock on Fox, and Monday Night Football was
all Patrick Mahomes three hundred yards passing three touchdowns, Chiefs
(15:55):
twenty eight seven over the Commander's birthdays today, Billionaire Bill
Gates is seventy Julia Roberts fifty eight, Brad Paisley fifty three,
and Joaquin Phoenix is fifty one. That's your birthday. Happy birthday,
So glad you were born. And thanks for waking up
with your morning show.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
This is your morning show with Michael del Chrono.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Hans von Spakowski will be joining us to connect the
dots on the massive subsidy scheme to prop up Obamacare momentarily,
and then of course John Decker's coming up next on
the President's Asian trip. First, want to get your voice
in here to WKBN and Youngstown, Ohio. We go with
our idea of the day.
Speaker 4 (16:36):
I'd like to have a no halftime show, no commercials
during the game, and just play all the commercials during
the halftime.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Wow, now you're talking feature football and then feature your
commercials at halftime. What a novel idea? All right, if
you're just waking up. The Senate went without a vote
as the government shutdown enters its fourth week. Hurricane Melissa
bearing down a Cat five hurricane, some wins up to
(17:06):
two hundred plus miles an hour heading to Jamaica this morning.
Then the back end will slap Jamaica tonight and then
it's on to Cuba. The President signed agreement with Japan
to speed up the cooperation in the process of critical minerals,
and we do expect the FED to cut interest rates
later this week. Adam is on very little sleep. My
(17:27):
son suspiciously goes from two letters out of sequence to
solving the wordle in his next guest. And that's on
no sleep because I know he was up watching the
Dodgers as well. Game three of the World Series went
over six hundred pitches and eighteen innings before Freddie Freeman
hit a solo home run the walk off win for
(17:48):
the Dodgers six to five over the Jays. They now
lead two games to one. Game four. Tonight on Fox Well,
President Trump will be meeting with the new Prime Minister
of Japan as he continues his swing through Asia. White
House correspondent John Decker's here to explain why the trip
is so important and the latest down the developments, including
a fiery speech on board the USS. George Washington, Good morning, John.
Speaker 5 (18:09):
Yeah, that speech happened just within the.
Speaker 12 (18:12):
Past few hours. The President is now attending a dinner
in his honor in Tokyo, Japan that is hosted by
the new Japanese Prime Minister. The US and Japan have
already reached a trade deal that was several months ago.
Japan pays a tariff rate of fifteen percent for all
of the goods from Japan coming into our country. And
(18:34):
the President, as you know, earlier in his trip of Malaysia,
reached trade deals or frameworks for trade deals with four
Southeast Asian countries. The President wrapping up his trip with
his dinner this evening, and then tomorrow he'll travel to.
Speaker 5 (18:49):
South Korea for the APEC summit.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
All right, so in that summit, we think or at
least it has been signaled that everything's in line to
final lies the TikTok sale that's huge, as well as
finalize this trade deal with China, perhaps the biggest piece
of this whole puzzle, and that would say a lot
(19:13):
about how much ground has been gained on fentanyl as
well as some of the trade disparities. We think we
got a.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
Deal that's exactly right. And I think that America's farmers
are very.
Speaker 12 (19:23):
Much interested in this trade deal. Because according to Scott Bessant,
the Treasury Secretary who met with his Chinese counterpart just
a few days ago in Malaysia. China has agreed to
resume its purchases of large amounts large volumes of American soybeans,
and they have essentially boycotted those purchases for the full
(19:45):
year that President Trump has been in office.
Speaker 5 (19:48):
Now those purchases will resume. So that's good news for
those farmers. And it really is shaping up to be
a very successful Asia trip for President Trump.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
So when John goes to LSU and they get blown
out by Texas A and m Coach gets fired, John
stays up and watches eighteen innings of the Blue Jays
finally losing. Does Ze get the Blue Jays manager fired?
Time will tell you can learn more about what John's covering.
The White House Briefing Room is his podcast. It'll be
up by nine Eastern later this morning. The White House
(20:19):
Briefing Room with John Decker. Find that podcast on your
iHeart app and then lock it in. Make it a
preset that way, it's a button away every morning. Thanks
John for joining us. All right, forty minutes after the hour,
you might remember Obamacare, and really preceding that, we go
to Hillary Clinton. She was gonna set up a single
(20:40):
payer system, a government run healthcare as first lady commissioned
to do that. It failed and it didn't help. The
newt Gingrich came along and the Republicans got control of Congress.
Two years into the presidency, dashes all their dreams. Then
Obama comes along, same apparat to Saint Podesta. They set
(21:02):
up Obamacare. Remember you got to vote for it before
you read it. We'll find out what's in it after
we vote. Some have concluded Obamacare was designed to fail,
and fail it did, starting with its website, and then
inevitably it did not ensure everyone. In fact, very few
more than were uninsured to create Obamacare, and premiums didn't
(21:25):
go down, they actually went up, and the quality of
care didn't go up, it went down, and then it
all got supersized during COVID. What's really going on here, well,
which you have are massive subsidies going to the insurance
companies and massive amount of lobbying dollars to ensure that
(21:48):
money continues to flow wide. That's how you hide the premiums. Remember,
everything got shuffled from checkout to premiums because everybody wasn't
paying for healthcare. You achieved nothing broke, designed to break,
so then you would have to go to a single
payer system, but in the process we have the shell
game being played. You got a lot of people getting
(22:10):
healthcare getting subsidized by taxpayers. It's a big, massive subsidy
scheme and that may have a lot to do with
why the government is still shut down and the Democrats
won't budge. Hans von Spakowsky from the Heritage Foundation Senior
Fellow is here. Hans, I saw this story and I thought,
right up your wheelhouse, you and David Zanati, this is
(22:33):
so up your wheelhouse. Connect the dots for everybody, because
I think this makes sense in terms of the government
shutdown and where did the failed Obamacare go? And why
haven't we talked about it for a decade because they've
been hiding it. Well, they have.
Speaker 13 (22:47):
But the amount of money out of the federal budget
is like half a trillion dollars.
Speaker 5 (22:55):
I mean, it's a huge amount.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
And what it's.
Speaker 13 (22:59):
Been doing is subsidizing not people who are poor.
Speaker 5 (23:04):
That's not the situation at all.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
In fact, it is.
Speaker 5 (23:08):
Subsidizing insurance for lots.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
And lots of enroll leagues.
Speaker 13 (23:14):
Who are way over In fact, there's one study shows
four hundred percent above the federal poverty level. So this
whole program, this whole program was designed to subsidize government
healthcare and eventually lead to it being the entire healthcare system.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
So Obamacare a huge failure by design, propped up until
it falls with these subsidies. And then you have the middleman,
the massive lobbying dollars to paid and bought career politicians.
How do you break the shell game?
Speaker 5 (23:57):
Well, you know what's interesting about this is that remember Schumer.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
And the Democrats are.
Speaker 13 (24:04):
Refusing to fund the government over these subsidies. Yet why
are they ending.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Well, they were.
Speaker 13 (24:12):
Extended during COVID, and Schumer and all the Democrats voted
for them to end in December. So they're trying to
reverse their prior vote, which said, well, we're only going
to have these subsidies during this period of time.
Speaker 5 (24:33):
Well, COVID is long over, but.
Speaker 13 (24:35):
They are in bed with not just the insurance companies,
but the fact that look, secretly, all of this is
to lead down the path to government healthcare the kind
that England has, the kind of Canada has eventually.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
I mean, that's what they want to have happened. And look,
I'm sure you saw this.
Speaker 13 (25:01):
This is such an extreme position that they just lost.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
The federal good of federal employees. The unions. Yeah, the
Federal Employees union just flipped on the Democrats. Although wouldn't Chucky.
If Chucky were honest and we hooked a light detector
up to him, he would say, well, of course I
was being reasonable. That was a supersized subsidy to prop
(25:26):
up the insurance companies during COVID, and COVID was over,
so of course I voted that. But since then, the
crazy left in my party wants us to just fight, fight, fight,
no matter what and just you know, be a complete
dysfunctional opposition to Trump. So that's the inconsistency. But you
know where this is headed. If that crazy left portion
(25:50):
of their party can control them to hurt their own
constituents by extending this shutdown, well they're going to control
the narrative heading into the midterm and certainly beyond that.
Eight I think we got a glimpse of that with
AOC speech for Mom Donnie, that they are going to
go full socialist. That means government healthcare, that means free food,
(26:11):
free housing, they're all rights of every human being. So
I don't think there's a future for Chuckie Schumer but
I think this is the future. But you know, most
people in talk radio we're just talking about, well they
want to give free healthcare to illegals. No, it's it's
a way worse game than that.
Speaker 13 (26:30):
Well, you're right about that, and let me tell you
anyone who thinks that's a good idea.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
I look, at one.
Speaker 5 (26:39):
Point in my past, I actually worked for.
Speaker 13 (26:41):
The US division of a Canadian company. All the Canadians
there were so happy to be in the US.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
You know why.
Speaker 5 (26:48):
Healthcare Canadian system.
Speaker 13 (26:50):
Yeah, under the Canadian system, if they wanted to see
a doctor, it could take them six months, eight.
Speaker 5 (26:57):
Months, a year before they could get in.
Speaker 13 (27:00):
They could not get the kind of.
Speaker 5 (27:01):
Procedures they needed to wear. Us here, they made a
phone call and they could go see their doctor next week.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
Well, you know they would happy that. I don't know how.
I don't know if you have kids or how old
they are, Hans, But you know I looked at my
daughter and I said, look, you know you're talking about everything,
but why wouldn't you become a dermatologist In America today?
It is so hard to get into a dermatologist and
you may have something that's suspicious. It looks like it
could be skin cancer and then you'll call and set
(27:28):
the appointment. It'll be like next April. I mean it's insane.
I mean, we need more dermatologists. But when it's cancer
and you can't get in to get an MRI, get
a diagnosis, let alone early radiation, no, that's life or death. So, yeah,
there are problems with the single payer system that these
are not lessons we need to learn. We just need
to look right across the border to see them. All right,
(27:51):
So they have propped up the failure of Obamacare. It
kind of got off the radar of all Americans, and
the way it's been able to maintain itself is this
shell game with subsidies, and now it leads to this shutdown.
So what's the bottom line on this. What can my
listeners understand that listeners to other shows can't and what
(28:12):
must come of this?
Speaker 13 (28:14):
Well, we're about to reach a historical record in the
longest shutdown ever.
Speaker 5 (28:21):
I don't think Schumer and these people.
Speaker 13 (28:22):
Are going to back down for quite a while. This
could go through potentially the end of the year because
they have put their political ambitions and they're unwilling to
use common sense.
Speaker 5 (28:40):
I think what's going to.
Speaker 13 (28:41):
Have to happen is even more unions are going to
have to break away from their support and start pressuring them.
If that happens, then finally they may agree to a
clean continuing.
Speaker 5 (28:55):
Resolution and this may come to an end.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Yeah. Now to mention, we head into November and December
and then you've got holiday travel. Now that's not going
to vie well for them either. But yeah, I think
what you're seeing is the setup. But look, we've said
for the longest time the Left doesn't have a messenger
or a message. Well, the messengers are starting to come forward.
It's gonna be AOC. It's going to be Mom Donnie.
(29:18):
Bernie has handed the torch to AOC. So just as
Bernie led in the primaries in twenty sixteen and twenty twenty,
she'll get the early lead. The DNC will scramble, try
to give you romy Manuel with somebody like Shapiro or
the governor of Maryland. But they're going to run on
the parasite. They're going to run on full blown socialism,
and I think that's going to be their demanded message
(29:40):
in the midterm and in the presidential All interesting times
are ahead. But thanks for connecting the dots on this
shell game to keep Obamacare propped up so that it
can fail, so that we can get a failed government
healthcare system. Hans von Spakowski. You can read his great
work at Heritage dot org. Thanks for finding time for
us this morning, Hans.
Speaker 3 (30:00):

with the cheer. Chocolate's the best. It's been a part
of human life since eleven hundred BC. Its roots are Aztec,
but Germany's the country that produces the most for consumption.
Eating it is known to trigger a chemical reaction that
makes you feel good. And who doesn't want that for
the one percent of the population who don't like chocolate
