Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Michael or Mike.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Hey, I listened to the podcast nowadays, and I don't
really know or care what your topics are for this morning,
so I'm leaving this after hours. But I'm just wondering
when I go back to how you much you were
wringing your hands over Donald Trump during the primaries and

(00:23):
the nomination and you wanted DeSantis. Do you think you
could have got the job done that Donald's doing?

Speaker 3 (00:29):
To Michael, I got a question. With this big budget
stand up looming right now, does that lend some credence
to the idea that Doge really just barely scratched the
surface if we're lucky and it didn't really accomplish all
that much, That's my question. Didn't really do anything? So
Doage worth all this fuss?

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Michael or Mike? I know I left to talk back earlier,
but I was getting to the end of it and
you were talking about the lady that couldn't afford to
pop and stuff for her child.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
How does she afford a phone or computer to post
that kind of stuff? You know what? I think? We're Upsiddale.

Speaker 4 (01:16):
Good morning from South Dakota.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
It was tough, but I survived the first day of
the shutdown.

Speaker 5 (01:21):
Everyone, have a great day. How did everybody survive the
first day of the government shutdown?

Speaker 6 (01:27):
Hey, I'll tell you this to everybody. We need a
third way in the United States. I'm non an American.
I live in Canada. But in Canada we have the
New Democratic Party, and God rest his soul. Jack Layton
was one heck of a man. And if we could

(01:49):
follow in the footsteps of Jack Layton and Democrats like
John F. Kennedy, I think we'd all be better off.

Speaker 7 (01:57):
What amazes me is that so many of our elected
officials who are Jewish like the holidays, like Young Kapoor,
and they'll like Honika. But yet at the same time
they really don't practice their face and just honor the
religion of progressivism. Yes, progressivism is not just political, it's

(02:24):
a face.

Speaker 8 (02:25):
Okay, Michael.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
It's Ken and Sarasita.

Speaker 8 (02:27):
Just back from the rural environs of Morocco in the
Atlas Mountains, where it was mostly difficult to find you
because of the great coverage over there. But I do
buy my rubber bands at office depot, and I buy
my nail again nails at home depot.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
Have a great day.

Speaker 5 (02:45):
Decades ago, a friend of mine, who says he doesn't
like people, was so happy when gas stations in Colorado
quit having an attendant come to pump your gas and
check your oil and we finally had self service gas stations.
Self service.

Speaker 9 (03:05):
Yeah, Michael, Just a clarification, The Big Beautiful Bill did
not make it illegal for illegal immigrants to be covered
by Medicaid.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
States are still free to do that.

Speaker 9 (03:14):
The only thing is said is if you do that,
the federal government is not going to reimburse you for
any of the costs you incur associated with providing medical
care to illegal aliens.

Speaker 10 (03:24):
Hello Mike or Michael. So I'm hoping that there are
a whole bunch of demon cats that are as pissed
off as I am, you know, because I make money,
not enough to afford health insurance, but too much to
get any subsidies, and yet those idiots in Washington want

(03:46):
to just give it all away to illegals, Like how
dare they?

Speaker 11 (03:50):
So I'm wondering if this continuing resolution requires more than
just a simple majority, because we do have that in
both houses of congris. So are there Republicans that are
also against it? Or is it truly just the Democrats?

Speaker 4 (04:06):
My wife and I are both retired, we're both on Medicare,
we both have supplemental insurance. So we're paying out the
ying yang for our health problems, and the Democrats want
us to pay more for these illegals. Hell, no, old

(04:30):
glory this I will defend Michael.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
When AFC says four million Americans won't have insurance health insurance,
she means four million people in America, because all you
have to do is stick over the border, and to her,
you're an American. I think that's what she really means. Scary,
isn't it, Hey, Mike.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
If the furloughed.

Speaker 12 (04:59):
Government employees are going to get paid anyway, then all
we're really doing is paying them for a vacation. So
if I get furloughed, I don't get paid, and if
I want to get paid, I have to use vacation time.
But if a government employee gets furloughed, they still get paid.

Speaker 9 (05:21):
Michael AOC said she was concerned about four million Americans
without health insurance. The CDC said as of the end
of twenty twenty four, there were twenty seven point two
million Americans without health insurance. Does she not know the
correct number or is she only concerned with the subset
of that twenty seven point two million.

Speaker 13 (05:39):
Hey, Michael, I thought you were going to tell the
story of Mike is Al Green, the Texas House member
who is going to confront Donald Trump with his cane
on the floor. I thought that would have been really
funny too, So we've had multiple cainings. I guess thanks
for the history lesson too.

Speaker 14 (05:59):
Twenty seven million people without health insurance. I thought Obamacare
was supposed to provide health insurance for everybody despite my
insurance quintupling or was it more than that between the
time Obamacare started today?

Speaker 15 (06:11):
Michael Tom from South Dakota calling about the government shutdown
and Trump truly is a threat to democracy. The shrine
to democracy last night didn't light up and it was
dark in South Dakota. Can you help me with a
GoFundMe to raise enough money to pay the guy to

(06:32):
flip the switch to light up the sky with the
shrine to democracy. Jeez, this is hard on us in
South Dakota.

Speaker 16 (06:41):
Michael, I would sure like to hear you and capitalists
and others start tying this illegals first to Bennett and
his run for governor.

Speaker 17 (06:53):
Thank you, Good morning, Michael, you are right. It is
a very very sad day for the world. Jewish people
just being persecuted over and over and over. Good morning, Michael.
It is a very sad state of affairs for the
Jewish people, just continued persecution and open hate around the world,

(07:17):
certainly here in America not immune to it. As much
as I say that it's typically the liberals, unfortunately, I
think we've seen some on the far right, or at
least those with a big platform, join that fight with
the socialists.
