Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's Michael reminding you that your morning show can

Speaker 2 (00:16):
We're grateful you're here. Now. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Well two three, starting your morning off right.
Speaker 4 (00:23):
A new way of talk, a new way of understanding
because we're in this stage.
Speaker 5 (00:30):
This is your morning show with.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Michael dell chean.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Thanks, you're Mike McCann. Well, just like that, half the
year is gone. Welcome to a new week and a
new month. Monday, July, the first year of our Lord,
twenty twenty four. Maybe a short week, but it's jam packed.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
With the things going on.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
President Biden spent Sunday at Camp David, trying to contemplate
his future with family. Meanwhile, his Alley's allies trying to
rally behind him after a quote unquote bad debate performance.
Today is the last day for the Supreme Court decisions
this term, so all eyes are on the Supreme Court
for the Trump community case. Roy o'neilill have more on
that coming up in about forty four minutes. Most of
(01:11):
the country expected to suffer from scorching temperatures this Fourth
of July week, including long travel delays at airports. Aaron
Reyelle has the latest on that coming up in thirty
one minutes. And a Hurricane Burle is moving towards the
Caribbean as a Category three hurricane, looking to be our
first real hurricane of the season. On the Aaron streaming
(01:33):
live on your iHeart app. This is your morning show
from the Chris Berry Studios in Nashville.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I am Michael del Jorno. Good morning.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Well, obviously the big story is was that a bad
debate for Joe Biden or was that a cognitive revelation? Translation?
Were we all duped and gas lighted? I mean Robert
Hurr complete vindication?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Right?
Speaker 1 (01:57):
I think fifty million Americans who watched or have since
seen clips by the hundreds of millions, Sure looks like
what we think Robert Hurr was describing. That just enters
gaslight two point zero. So the story really is you
(02:18):
were gaslighted? Now I've said it this way. If that
was your first indication that Joe Biden had cognitive issues,
you haven't either been paying attention or you've been trying
not to see it. If that's the first time CNN
saw it. In the minute the debate was over, they
were saying, well, Democrats are going to be reeling everywhere.
(02:38):
This guy's got to step down. Then you haven't been
very honest with us. Either we haven't been honest with
ourselves to not see it, or the media hasn't been
very honest with us to show it. But if we're
going to move forward, the first question is is this
guy cognitively impaired? Now eighty four year old Nancy Pelosi
(03:03):
came to his fence.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Yes, but.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Four and five voters have either watched or read about
the first presidential debate. Forty seven percent Yes, watched it live,
saw it for myself. Twenty three percent I've seen clips
since the debate. Add those together, seven and ten Americans
sought never mind the fifty million Nielsen, which is impressive.
(03:30):
Now seven and ten have seen it. Another ten percent
now you're talking eight and ten read about it. So
if you're going to play the gaslight game, you really
can only reach thirty one percent of Americans, right Now
the ten percent who said they read about it translation
(03:51):
in the matrix that we live in and the death
of journalism that we live in. What they're reading could be, yeah,
this is kind of a bad debate performance. Nothing really
bad here, or they read he's so cognitively impaired at
twenty fifth Amendment should be enacted.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
We don't know what they've read, but that's ten percent.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
You can really only shape the opinion of twenty one percent,
and the highest is among independent third party voters twenty
seven percent.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
But that's what they're making an effort to do. So
what do we see.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Originally the narrative, Oh, yeah, Joe Biden was bad, but
Donald Trump was a liar. We saw the Washington Post
doing that narrative the morning after. Now you have the
Philadelphia Inquirer calling on Donald Trump to drop out of
the race after his debate performance. This is gas I
don't even know if I call this gas lighting. Two point zero.
(04:41):
This is master's class gas lading. The Philadelphia Inquirer editorial
board called on former President Donald Trump to bowl out
of the race following his debate with Joe Biden, citing
it was a bombastic litany of lies, the debate about
the debate is misplaced. The only person who should withdraw
(05:02):
from this race is Donald Trump, said the Editorial Board.
Now Biden's debate performance sparked panic from members of the media,
in addition to some members of the Democrat Party, as
several media outlets have suggested he withdraw from the race.
The Inquirer nowledge the Biden's showing at the debate was
well a disaster, but argued Trump was the one who
(05:26):
should step down. After all, the debate quote served as
a reminder of what another four years of Donald Trump
would look like. More lies, grievance, narcissism, and hate. Supporters
say they like Trump because he says whatever he thinks,
(05:48):
but he mainly spews raw.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Sewage, writes The Inquirer.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
The Editorial Board argued even further, Trump didn't even deserve
a spot on the day debate stage. What do they
feel about RFK Junior? Why even give him a platform? Yes,
Biden had a horrible night. He's eighty one years old.
It's not as sharp as he used to be. But
Biden on his worst day remains light years better than
Trump on his best. But again, there's Rob Ryiner, meathead
(06:21):
from all in the family. Last night sebait was a
disaster for President Biden, But the choice is still crystal clear.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
We either can.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Choose a good, decent man who cares about his fellow
citizens and knows how to govern, or a convicted felon
who will destroy our democracy. Then there's Nancy Pelosi, who
was on State of the Union, the eighty four year
old former speaker defending an eighty one year old, cognitively
(06:51):
impaired president.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
Let us not make a judgment about a presidency one
of one. Let's talk about what it means to people
in their lives. And that's why you're not seeing much
change in the polls on this.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Well, you actually are now that you bring it up.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
On June ninth, weeks before the debate, does Joe Biden
have mental and cognitive health to serve as president? Thirty
five percent said he does. That's scary. Right June ninth,
only thirty five percent of Americans registered voters said he
(07:34):
was mentally and cognitively up for the job. That's down
to twenty seven percent now. On June ninth, sixty five
percent said he does not. That's up to seventy two
percent now, Well, there'll be changes in the polls. The
question is how much does Trump go up and how
(07:55):
much does RFK go up. But here's the bottom line.
Only Joe Biden can step down, and he spent all
yesterday at Camp David discussing this with his family. No
one knows what they encouraged. He did raise thirty three
million dollars over the weekend and that's not going to
change things, but it could change things for Joe in
(08:16):
his mind, because only Joe can step aside and make
that decision and release his delegates. Then the question becomes,
if he does well, then who do you turn to?
Do you turn to RFK? He told Chris Cuomo he'll
talk to him. Do you turn to Kamala Harris? After all,
she is the vice president? In fact, the twenty fifth
(08:38):
A member would make her president prior to running. But
the poll suggests she would do worse.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Than Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Now, in all fairness, we don't know how people view
Joe Biden today. I'm sure these numbers get worse. But
if you go by the real clear politics average, Trump
has about a one and a half to two point
(09:11):
lead over Joe Biden forty six and a half to
forty five the latest. If Harris ran, the lead goes
to six point six points. Kennedy Harris, maybe you go
Gavin Newsom, Maybe you go Cuomo. Maybe I don't Whitmer,
(09:36):
I don't know. But only Joe Biden can step aside. Well,
that brings us to our journey of discovery, because if
Joe Biden were to withdraw at any point before the
DNC convention, it would be up to the delegates at
the DNC to pick a new nominee with the released delegates.
But from there they can expect legal challenges. In fact,
(10:01):
here's the most interesting angle. The Heritage Oversight Project has
set their sights on three contentious swing states where they
believe Biden off the Democrat ticket would not allow anyone
else to replace him. Now you get into the legalities involved,
and the three swing states are Georgia, Nevada, Wisconsin. I
(10:25):
don't have to tell those of you that are following
the electoral College map, it'd be very difficult for anyone
to win without those three swing states. Why Wisconsin does
not allow withdrawal from the ballot for any reason besides death,
So your gas lighting has backfired, God forbid. They meet
(10:49):
that criteria, he would need to be dead before Wisconsin
would recognize it. In Nevada, no changes can be made
to the ballot after five pm on the fourth Friday
in June.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
I don't have to tell you that is now passed.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
If Biden were with to withdraw less than sixty days
before the election Georgia, in Georgia, his name would remain
in the ballot. In Texas, the two party nominees have
until the seventy fourth day before the election to withdraw
from the ballot.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Some states, like South.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Carolina, do not allow candidates to withdraw for political reasons.
Some states don't have any laws on the books for
dealing with presidential nominees withdrawing, and there's little precedent for
such a situation occurring. Biden, to be clear, as publicly said,
he has no intention of withdrawing now. We don't know
how the conversations went at home at Camp David with
(11:45):
his family. We don't know, if I mean, that's a
big question for all of us today.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Who could get through to Joe? Could the Obamas? Could Podesta?
Could top donors?
Speaker 1 (12:05):
This is a guy who's wanted this presidency his entire life,
and finally gets it, sad finally gets it when he
cognitively can't keep a grip on it. But no matter
what you watch, no matter what you listen to today, remember
this A. He's got to make the decision. He can't
(12:27):
be forced out. Only he can step down, like LBJ
in sixty eight. Only he can release his delegates. But
even then not so fast for over a handful of states.
But I don't know how he gets around the expiration
dates already in Georgia, Nevada and Wisconsin. So whether you
go RFK Junior, if you can work that out, and
(12:48):
he says he's open, whether you can go Kamala, although
the poll suggests she would do worse Gavin Whitmer, whomever.
It'll still say Joe Biden and Georgia. It'll still say
Joe Biden and Nevada. It'll still say George Joe Biden Wisconsin, unless,
of course, he dies between now and then, so can
(13:11):
the dem switch. No, only Biden can step down even then,
Is it a done deal? No? Not for Georgia and
Nevada and Wisconsin. It's a legal issue. And you thought
it was going to be a short, easy week. This
is your morning Show with Michael Deltno, all right. President
Biden spent Sunday at Camp David discussing his future with family,
(13:34):
last day for Supreme Court decisions, not the least of
which is the Trump Community case, and scorching temperatures for
just about all for the fourth time for your top
not one, not two, not three, not four, but five
Stories of the day, twenty six minutes after the hour,
Thanks for waking up with your morning show. Well, Biden
is an issue, but is he an issue of national security?
Speaker 2 (13:57):
Right now? Here's Mark Mayfield with today in politics.
Speaker 7 (14:00):
North Dakoda Governor Doug Burgham says President Biden is not
capable of serving.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
As commander in chief.
Speaker 7 (14:05):
That's what he told NBC's Meet the Press days after
Biden and Donald Trump met for the first presidential debate
of the twenty twenty four election.
Speaker 5 (14:12):
Later at a greater national security risk today than we
were on Thursday because the commander in chief showed that,
but he's not capable of serving.
Speaker 7 (14:20):
Burgham argued that the US is facing a greater national
security risk today because the nation's adversaries saw Biden is
not capable of serving. This comes as calls are growing
for Biden to step aside after he struggled during Thursday's debate.
Bergham is considered to be on Trump's short list for
a vice president, and the Supreme Court is expected to
rule on former President Trump's immunity case today. After the
(14:41):
release of several decisions Friday, Chief Justice John Roberts announced
that Monday is going to be the last decision day
of the term. The case centers around federal charges accusing
Trump of trying to overturn the results of the twenty
twenty election. The decision could impact all of Trump's pending
court cases past politics. Mark Mayfield, NBC News Radio.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Democrats are coming to President Biden's defense following his quote
unquote poor debate performance last week, Lisa Carton reports.
Speaker 8 (15:07):
In an interview with CNN State of the Union, former
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi conceded Biden had a bad night,
but urged voters to look at his record. She argued,
it's not about performance in terms of a debate, by
performance in a presidency. Pelosi also sharply criticized former President Trump,
claiming that Americans are aware of the lies he told
(15:27):
on the debate stage. I'm Lisa Carton.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Even more trouble for Democrats. The defense in the corruption
trial of New Jersey Senator Robert Menendez is expected to
begin presenting its case this week.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Larry Kofsky has more.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Among the first defense witnesses expected to appear, Menendez's sister,
The New York Post report she'll tell the court menendez
hoarding of cash is not evidence of a crime, and
that his Cuban family has a history of stashing cash
outside of banks. Prosecutors wrapped up seven weeks of testimony Friday,
outlining a scheme in which Menendez and his wife allegedly
(16:01):
accepted cash, gold bars, and mercedes, and other gifts in
exchange for political favors. Larry Kofski NBC News Radio this.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Fourth of July, the heat is on. Chris Carragio has details.
Speaker 5 (16:14):
Record temperatures are expected nationwide, with humidity in the South
making areas such as New Orleans feel close to one
hundred and twenty degrees. Parts of Arizona, California, and Nevada
could see the temperature hit near one hundred and fifteen degrees,
with both Las Vegas and Phoenix expected to hit the
number around the holiday. Heat advisories are in effect for
much of the East Coast as well.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Hey it's me Michael.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Your morning show has heard live from five to eight
am Central, six to nine am Eastern, three to six
am Pacific on great radio stations like News Radio eleven
ninety k EX in Portland, News Talk five fifty k FYI,
and Phoenix, Arizona Freedom one oh four seven in Washington,
d C.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
We'd love to have you join us.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
Live in the morning, even take us along on the
drive to work.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
But better late than never enjoyed the podcast.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
I know you expecting like a short holiday week, you know,
nothing going on, Just the opposite. Joe Biden spent the
weekend at Camp David discussing his future re election campaign
with family members. It begs the question, who could convince
this man to step down? And I doubt it'd be
his family. It's the last day for the Supreme Court
(17:20):
to give us some of their decisions from this session,
not the least of.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Which is the Trump immunity case.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
We'll talk about that with Rory O'Neal in minutes and
scorching heat planned for the fourth of July, with a
hurricane in the Caribbean, what else could go on? Aaron
Royal is joining US record summer travel getting ready to
get started, and I guess that would mean a record
number of flight delays.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Can't be too far behind.
Speaker 9 (17:43):
Nope, they cannot. So let me give you the numbers. TSA.
They're expecting his screens.
Speaker 10 (17:47):
Thirty two million travelers between the Friday that just passed
June twenty eighth, and then.
Speaker 9 (17:52):
A week from today, the July eighth, that Monday. This
is a lot.
Speaker 10 (17:57):
It is beating last year's numbers by five percent.
Speaker 9 (18:00):
Last year was a record year for air travel.
Speaker 10 (18:02):
So people are getting out there. They are willing to
go into debt for it. I actually did another story
on that that people are taking out extreme credit card
debt to take this vacation. Oh, they're going to go
on it, But that doesn't mean delays there going to
be any more accommodating. I think what's also interesting, Michael Heat.
We always think of snow as being the big delay culprit,
but apparently heat and I did not know this until
(18:23):
researching for this story. Heat creates thin air, and thin
air apparently hampers a plane's thrust during takeoff.
Speaker 9 (18:32):
In order to get to that a sense, so that
it's flying.
Speaker 10 (18:34):
So that means that an airplane needs either a much
longer runway or a much lighter aircraft aka less bags
than people on it in order to take off. And
this is going to create an increase in flight cancelations.
Speaker 9 (18:48):
These high temperatures.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Wow, yeah right, I know that heat makes it bumpier.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
You know, that's one thing, because you know the heat
reflects off the earth and then it bumps the plane.
Didn't know, I mean, I guess cinner air, but I
would have thought maybe that would just make it longer,
not necessarily needing to be canceled. But yeah, just and
I was just shocked. That's a lot of people flying.
I mean, that's close to what raw forty million flying.
(19:15):
I would but I wanted to dust out what is
extreme debt? I want to see if I was guilty
of extreme or moderate debt? I mean I only want
to Sandusky, Ohio for crying out loud. No.
Speaker 10 (19:26):
No, So by extreme, I think it's like just adding
more to your credit card debt and then you throw
a twenty one percent interest on it.
Speaker 9 (19:32):
That's extreme. That's extreme, right.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Yeah, No, it doesn't matter what you do.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Now, we chose as a family to go somewhere where
we could drive to avoid five airplane tickets, I mean
five airplane tickets plus hotels for an entire family, plus
if you're going to someplace like Disney or what have you,
your daily passes and yeah, I mean vacations are very
very expensive. But it shows people are ready to have.
The two things that we've dusted out is when will
(19:57):
people be ready to spend again, They certainly are ready
to spend. They don't have the money, so it's just
going to more debt, which is bad. And then we
talked about you know often, you know, how would they
spend their money if they have to, will be on
things or experiences. It would point to those experiences and
they're willing to go into debt.
Speaker 10 (20:18):
Right, Yeah, experiences and they're willing to go into debt.
And then beyond that, if you're just looking like strictly
at the air travel, it's been so gnarly last year.
We have air traffic controllers that there frankly just aren't
enough of them.
Speaker 9 (20:30):
There's not enough pilots.
Speaker 10 (20:32):
You have the Boeing fiasco, so you're having delays on planes,
and older planes tend to have more technical.
Speaker 9 (20:38):
Issues, so it's kind of a perfect storm.
Speaker 10 (20:40):
But then you have this influx of so many people
traveling in a situation where the airport there is like
almost collisions on runways.
Speaker 9 (20:48):
Last year, you're like, when you stop and you think
about it, you're like, you have to book less flights. Airlines,
you have to book less.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
Flights if you're going to Cancun or Jamaica. You got
burrel out there swirling around as a category three her.
All right, so now we know that we lost a
lot of pilots to early retirement during COVID. They got
bought out cent early retirement. But but there's been plenty of
time to replenish that. Are we still dealing with pilot shortages?
Speaker 9 (21:11):
So not that is not the leading culprit.
Speaker 10 (21:12):
The air traffic controllers are apparently, and there's some required
vacation and like brakes as there should be. I don't
want any air sleepy, like you know, like yes, let
them go to bed, Let them go to bed, like
they need to do their job, need being tip top shake,
get them a coffee.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
This just did, this just did. Joe Biden has stepped
down as a candidate for president. He's now an air
traffic controller for Aaron and her family traveling to Cincinnati today.
Speaker 9 (21:38):
It's like, what's more terrifying? Yeah, no, they're it's a
difficult situation.
Speaker 10 (21:44):
Obviously, their staffing is better, and actually the airlines have
said they are in a better position to absorb this heavy,
heavy travel season this year than last year. I mean,
they couldn't have been in a worse position last year,
and they just were not capable and it was like
epic levels of failure. So I guess any improvement in
some improvement, but it's not great. It's not great at all.
And they're expecting Actually, the CEO of United he said
(22:07):
that he's projecting a seven percent increase in flyers from
last year, American expecting a ten percent increase, So they're.
Speaker 9 (22:15):
Ready to absorb some of it.
Speaker 10 (22:16):
But I think us as flyers, if you are flying,
if you're going anywhere, be ready to absorb some weight time.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
If you think better off in a hub city, I
would think if anybody gets tripped up, I'm thinking of
our Tulsa listeners or Oklahoma City listeners, because you all
know you got to go to Dallas before you can
go anywhere. You'll probably be fine once you get to Dallas.
Before you get stuck at these non hub airports, probably
a little more easily, I would think.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
Yeah, you'd be surprised, Michael.
Speaker 10 (22:41):
So based on air traffic patterns and airport density New York,
New York City, like the LGA, JFK, Newark, all those
and Florida, all of Florida are subject to the highest
risks back up, because you have the density issued so
many people coming into these hubs.
Speaker 9 (23:00):
So the exact opposite.
Speaker 10 (23:01):
If you're leading from like a smaller you might find
yourself in a better position. Of course, if you're going
to a major hub, that that the point is moved.
Speaker 9 (23:09):
But I think the hack, and I don't know why not.
Everyone has realized.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
This hang on has great hacks. Here we go, I
have here we go.
Speaker 10 (23:17):
Everyone brace themselves. Take the first flight out you possibly can. Yes,
you might need to wake up at four am. Michael
and I do it every day, and we're fine.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Yeah, look at us, We're only gonna die fifteen years premature.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
But look at us.
Speaker 9 (23:31):
It's fine, it's fine, We're gonna be okay.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
They're cheaper too, right, cheaper flights, cheaper flights, and you
don't get stuck somewhere. Now, that's a good hacker.
Speaker 10 (23:39):
Ever, and also it's not too hot, and now that
the heat is causing planes not to take off, like
I just I feel like just take the first flight out.
It's it's always a breeze. Like I feel like everyone's
a little bit more focused. They haven't yet had the
whole date of fatigue over nonsense.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Yeah, it's a winning where's everybody going the most?
Speaker 1 (23:57):
I mean it's still overseas.
Speaker 10 (23:59):
Oh so it's well if we're talking domestic in the
major places DC, New York, the big cities of Florida.
A lot of people going to Florida this summer. Surprisingly overseas,
we are seeing overseas travel. And know what, the Europeans
love it because we Americans we accidentally kip everywhere where.
Speaker 9 (24:15):
It's not meant to be.
Speaker 10 (24:18):
They're like, these guys are great, they're rich and they're
just making it right.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
Let me tell you there's a lot of good times
hit a very affordable rate in Sandusky, Ohio. If you
want to go check out the the amusement park. All right,
they're in great reporting, have a great day. We'll talk
again tomorrow. If you're just waking up.
Speaker 11 (24:34):
These are your top not one, not two, not three,
not four, but top five stories of the day.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Where to begin. North Dakota Governor Doug Bergham may even
be Trump's finance VPPIC says President Biden is not capable,
not just staying on the ticket, He's not capable of
serving as commander in chief right now.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Mark Mayfield has more.
Speaker 7 (24:58):
That's what he told the NBC Meet the Press days
after Biden and Donald Trump meant for the first presidential
debate of the twenty twenty four election. Bergham argued that
the US is facing a greater national security risk today
because the nation's adversaries saw Biden is not capable of serving.
Burgham is considered to be on Trump's shortlist for vice president.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
I'm Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
If we were playing on family feud, name something about
the fourth of July fireworks, what would be number two?
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Hot?
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Of course, the heat is on. It's the fourth of July.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
But here's Chris Garagio with more.
Speaker 5 (25:33):
Record temperatures are expected nationwide, with humidity in the South,
making areas such as New Orleans feel close.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
To one hundred and twenty degrees.
Speaker 5 (25:41):
Parts of Arizona, California, and Nevada could see the temperature
hit near one hundred and fifteen degrees, with both Las

Speaker 1 (28:23):
This is Rebecca in spring Hill, Tennessee, and my morning
show is your Morning Show with Michael del Jorno. Good morning,
Welcome to a new week in a new month, Monday,
July the first year of Our Lord twenty twenty four
coming up just after the break. And if you don't
hear it because of your town or what have you,
don't forget It'll be on the podcast. Just go to
the iHeartRadio app podcast section search Your Morning Show or

The podcast is waiting for you every morning by nine
thirty Central, ten thirty Eastern, all three hours commercial free.
But we're gonna visit with best selling author Howard Bloom
what really has happened in the murder of four University
of Idaho students as the suspect prepares for trial. Best
(29:07):
selling author Howard Bloom just released the first definitive book
on the murders ahead of Coberger's trial. He's going to
join us to discuss that in minutes on your Morning
show for Just Waking Up. President Biden spent Sunday at
Camp David to discuss his future plans with his family members,
though all indications are he doesn't plan to budge. Today
(29:28):
is the last day for the Supreme Court decisions this
term one of the biggest cases, and I is roy
O'Neil here by the way, Okay, Rory, they can't put
it up today We're going to find out about immunity.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
Right right, boy?
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Talk about drama queens at the Supreme Court dragging this
out to the last possible moment, even going into July,
which is rare. But you know, back in April, the
lawyers for the former president argued that a president has
absolute immunity for official acts while I in office, and
that the immunity of after leaving office as well. So look,
(30:03):
when this announcement and this ruling is announced, the mean
a lot of rush to judgment about what the count
is six three, five, four seven two.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Whatever, eight six three oh nine.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
Goo ahead.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
You really got to read the details of this one
because they are going to be there's going to be
some pretty parsing language here.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Yeah, and there's a lot of details to this. But
let's say they rule the president doesn't have immunity. Everybody's
gonna think it's a Trump story. Not necessarily right, it's
in anybody who's ever been or ever going to be
president president's story.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
It's also opened the question about, you know, when do
presidential acts begin when to personalize? Like what the speech
that Donald Trump gave on January sixth? Was that presidential?
Was that political? Was that you know about the was
that the candidate speaking or the president speaking? And that's
a pretty fuzzy line.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
Yeah, I mean the answer is when I speak, one
am I being talk show host to Michael del Jorner.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
One, am I being husband, Michael del Jorner?
Speaker 1 (31:07):
What am I being father?
Speaker 2 (31:08):
Michael del Johner?
Speaker 1 (31:09):
One am I being born again Christian? Michael delor Guess why?
You're always so? But I mean, but that's the language
of the law is where that becomes relevant.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
And guess what not just Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Every president who has served in any president who serves
in the future. In fact, this may have a lot
to do with how Joe Biden is held accountable in
the future. So there's a lot writing for people. But yeah,
I think the clear and immediate concern would be for
Donald Trump. I mean, is it possible we're heading towards
neither of them being on the ticket?
Speaker 9 (31:42):
Well?
Speaker 3 (31:42):
Yeah, right, but you know if he does well, because
you know, even with this ruling, now that it's so late,
you know, none of these other trials with with Donald
Trump will happen before November. So that was the other
thing is that just by dragging this out as much
as possible, it's really most of the other experts agreed
that the lower court here I think it was the
Eleventh Circuit got it right and was a tight bundled
(32:06):
ruling that should have just the court should have just
taken it and not even ruled on the issue.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
What do you read into I mean waiting so long
a y B. Isn't that kind of a ruling in
and of itself? Well?
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Right?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
And how much is that supporting Donald Trump? Or you know,
did they not want to get involved in the debate
last week? I would counter that I would rather we
did know this ruling ahead of the debate so we
could have their comments on it, because as it stands now,
we're not going to get ahead to head discussion about it.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Listen, take it from a guy who want to stay
championship in high school. If you're going to lose a game,
don't lose more than you win. And if you're going
to lose, you I had an easier time losing ten
to nothing than I did four to three. So if
you're going to lose big, I only got it completely
wrong because my guess was this would be the first
ruling released and as it comes, it'll be in the
batch of the last. What else are we expecting in
(32:57):
thirty seconds or less? Today, all the focuses on the
immunity case, but what other.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
Have real That's really the only one that's still outstanding
that we're paying attention to.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Well that exact quick the Biden campaign is committing to
keeping him at the top of the ticket. That's the
indication anyway. Rory's going to be back next hour. And
then I want to kick around with you something I
read because only Biden can step down, They can't make him.
Only he can release his delegates, but not so fast
(33:27):
legally even there when it comes to Georgia, Nevada, and
Wisconsin because of the.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
Way their ballot laws are written. More with Wory on
that coming up. We're all in this together. This is
your Morning Show with Michael En Hill Jowno
Hey, it's Michael reminding you that your morning show can

Speaker 5 (00:30):
This is your morning show with.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Michael dell chean.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Thanks, you're Mike McCann. Well, just like that, half the
year is gone. Welcome to a new week and a
new month. Monday, July, the first year of our Lord,
twenty twenty four. Maybe a short week, but it's jam packed.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
With the things going on.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
President Biden spent Sunday at Camp David, trying to contemplate
his future with family. Meanwhile, his Alley's allies trying to
rally behind him after a quote unquote bad debate performance.
Today is the last day for the Supreme Court decisions
this term, so all eyes are on the Supreme Court
for the Trump community case. Roy o'neilill have more on
that coming up in about forty four minutes. Most of
(01:11):
the country expected to suffer from scorching temperatures this Fourth
of July week, including long travel delays at airports. Aaron
Reyelle has the latest on that coming up in thirty
one minutes. And a Hurricane Burle is moving towards the
Caribbean as a Category three hurricane, looking to be our
first real hurricane of the season. On the Aaron streaming
(01:33):
live on your iHeart app. This is your morning show
from the Chris Berry Studios in Nashville.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I am Michael del Jorno. Good morning.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Well, obviously the big story is was that a bad
debate for Joe Biden or was that a cognitive revelation? Translation?
Were we all duped and gas lighted? I mean Robert
Hurr complete vindication?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Right?
Speaker 1 (01:57):
I think fifty million Americans who watched or have since
seen clips by the hundreds of millions, Sure looks like
what we think Robert Hurr was describing. That just enters
gaslight two point zero. So the story really is you
(02:18):
were gaslighted? Now I've said it this way. If that
was your first indication that Joe Biden had cognitive issues,
you haven't either been paying attention or you've been trying
not to see it. If that's the first time CNN
saw it. In the minute the debate was over, they
were saying, well, Democrats are going to be reeling everywhere.
(02:38):
This guy's got to step down. Then you haven't been
very honest with us. Either we haven't been honest with
ourselves to not see it, or the media hasn't been
very honest with us to show it. But if we're
going to move forward, the first question is is this
guy cognitively impaired? Now eighty four year old Nancy Pelosi
(03:03):
came to his fence.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Yes, but.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Four and five voters have either watched or read about
the first presidential debate. Forty seven percent Yes, watched it live,
saw it for myself. Twenty three percent I've seen clips
since the debate. Add those together, seven and ten Americans
sought never mind the fifty million Nielsen, which is impressive.
(03:30):
Now seven and ten have seen it. Another ten percent
now you're talking eight and ten read about it. So
if you're going to play the gaslight game, you really
can only reach thirty one percent of Americans, right Now
the ten percent who said they read about it translation
(03:51):
in the matrix that we live in and the death
of journalism that we live in. What they're reading could be, yeah,
this is kind of a bad debate performance. Nothing really
bad here, or they read he's so cognitively impaired at
twenty fifth Amendment should be enacted.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
We don't know what they've read, but that's ten percent.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
You can really only shape the opinion of twenty one percent,
and the highest is among independent third party voters twenty
seven percent.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
But that's what they're making an effort to do. So
what do we see.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Originally the narrative, Oh, yeah, Joe Biden was bad, but
Donald Trump was a liar. We saw the Washington Post
doing that narrative the morning after. Now you have the
Philadelphia Inquirer calling on Donald Trump to drop out of
the race after his debate performance. This is gas I
don't even know if I call this gas lighting. Two point zero.
(04:41):
This is master's class gas lading. The Philadelphia Inquirer editorial
board called on former President Donald Trump to bowl out
of the race following his debate with Joe Biden, citing
it was a bombastic litany of lies, the debate about
the debate is misplaced. The only person who should withdraw
(05:02):
from this race is Donald Trump, said the Editorial Board.
Now Biden's debate performance sparked panic from members of the media,
in addition to some members of the Democrat Party, as
several media outlets have suggested he withdraw from the race.
The Inquirer nowledge the Biden's showing at the debate was
well a disaster, but argued Trump was the one who
(05:26):
should step down. After all, the debate quote served as
a reminder of what another four years of Donald Trump
would look like. More lies, grievance, narcissism, and hate. Supporters
say they like Trump because he says whatever he thinks,
(05:48):
but he mainly spews raw.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Sewage, writes The Inquirer.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
The Editorial Board argued even further, Trump didn't even deserve
a spot on the day debate stage. What do they
feel about RFK Junior? Why even give him a platform? Yes,
Biden had a horrible night. He's eighty one years old.
It's not as sharp as he used to be. But
Biden on his worst day remains light years better than
Trump on his best. But again, there's Rob Ryiner, meathead
(06:21):
from all in the family. Last night sebait was a
disaster for President Biden, But the choice is still crystal clear.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
We either can.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Choose a good, decent man who cares about his fellow
citizens and knows how to govern, or a convicted felon
who will destroy our democracy. Then there's Nancy Pelosi, who
was on State of the Union, the eighty four year
old former speaker defending an eighty one year old, cognitively
(06:51):
impaired president.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
Let us not make a judgment about a presidency one
of one. Let's talk about what it means to people
in their lives. And that's why you're not seeing much
change in the polls on this.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Well, you actually are now that you bring it up.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
On June ninth, weeks before the debate, does Joe Biden
have mental and cognitive health to serve as president? Thirty
five percent said he does. That's scary. Right June ninth,
only thirty five percent of Americans registered voters said he
(07:34):
was mentally and cognitively up for the job. That's down
to twenty seven percent now. On June ninth, sixty five
percent said he does not. That's up to seventy two
percent now, Well, there'll be changes in the polls. The
question is how much does Trump go up and how
(07:55):
much does RFK go up. But here's the bottom line.
Only Joe Biden can step down, and he spent all
yesterday at Camp David discussing this with his family. No
one knows what they encouraged. He did raise thirty three
million dollars over the weekend and that's not going to
change things, but it could change things for Joe in
(08:16):
his mind, because only Joe can step aside and make
that decision and release his delegates. Then the question becomes,
if he does well, then who do you turn to?
Do you turn to RFK? He told Chris Cuomo he'll
talk to him. Do you turn to Kamala Harris? After all,
she is the vice president? In fact, the twenty fifth
(08:38):
A member would make her president prior to running. But
the poll suggests she would do worse.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Than Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Now, in all fairness, we don't know how people view
Joe Biden today. I'm sure these numbers get worse. But
if you go by the real clear politics average, Trump
has about a one and a half to two point
(09:11):
lead over Joe Biden forty six and a half to
forty five the latest. If Harris ran, the lead goes
to six point six points. Kennedy Harris, maybe you go
Gavin Newsom, Maybe you go Cuomo. Maybe I don't Whitmer,
(09:36):
I don't know. But only Joe Biden can step aside. Well,
that brings us to our journey of discovery, because if
Joe Biden were to withdraw at any point before the
DNC convention, it would be up to the delegates at
the DNC to pick a new nominee with the released delegates.
But from there they can expect legal challenges. In fact,
(10:01):
here's the most interesting angle. The Heritage Oversight Project has
set their sights on three contentious swing states where they
believe Biden off the Democrat ticket would not allow anyone
else to replace him. Now you get into the legalities involved,
and the three swing states are Georgia, Nevada, Wisconsin. I
(10:25):
don't have to tell those of you that are following
the electoral College map, it'd be very difficult for anyone
to win without those three swing states. Why Wisconsin does
not allow withdrawal from the ballot for any reason besides death,
So your gas lighting has backfired, God forbid. They meet
(10:49):
that criteria, he would need to be dead before Wisconsin
would recognize it. In Nevada, no changes can be made
to the ballot after five pm on the fourth Friday
in June.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
I don't have to tell you that is now passed.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
If Biden were with to withdraw less than sixty days
before the election Georgia, in Georgia, his name would remain
in the ballot. In Texas, the two party nominees have
until the seventy fourth day before the election to withdraw
from the ballot.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Some states, like South.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Carolina, do not allow candidates to withdraw for political reasons.
Some states don't have any laws on the books for
dealing with presidential nominees withdrawing, and there's little precedent for
such a situation occurring. Biden, to be clear, as publicly said,
he has no intention of withdrawing now. We don't know
how the conversations went at home at Camp David with
(11:45):
his family. We don't know, if I mean, that's a
big question for all of us today.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Who could get through to Joe? Could the Obamas? Could Podesta?
Could top donors?
Speaker 1 (12:05):
This is a guy who's wanted this presidency his entire life,
and finally gets it, sad finally gets it when he
cognitively can't keep a grip on it. But no matter
what you watch, no matter what you listen to today, remember
this A. He's got to make the decision. He can't
(12:27):
be forced out. Only he can step down, like LBJ
in sixty eight. Only he can release his delegates. But
even then not so fast for over a handful of states.
But I don't know how he gets around the expiration
dates already in Georgia, Nevada and Wisconsin. So whether you
go RFK Junior, if you can work that out, and
(12:48):
he says he's open, whether you can go Kamala, although
the poll suggests she would do worse Gavin Whitmer, whomever.
It'll still say Joe Biden and Georgia. It'll still say
Joe Biden and Nevada. It'll still say George Joe Biden Wisconsin, unless,
of course, he dies between now and then, so can
(13:11):
the dem switch. No, only Biden can step down even then,
Is it a done deal? No? Not for Georgia and
Nevada and Wisconsin. It's a legal issue. And you thought
it was going to be a short, easy week. This
is your morning Show with Michael Deltno, all right. President
Biden spent Sunday at Camp David discussing his future with family,
(13:34):
last day for Supreme Court decisions, not the least of
which is the Trump Community case, and scorching temperatures for
just about all for the fourth time for your top
not one, not two, not three, not four, but five
Stories of the day, twenty six minutes after the hour,
Thanks for waking up with your morning show. Well, Biden
is an issue, but is he an issue of national security?
Speaker 2 (13:57):
Right now? Here's Mark Mayfield with today in politics.
Speaker 7 (14:00):
North Dakoda Governor Doug Burgham says President Biden is not
capable of serving.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
As commander in chief.
Speaker 7 (14:05):
That's what he told NBC's Meet the Press days after
Biden and Donald Trump met for the first presidential debate
of the twenty twenty four election.
Speaker 5 (14:12):
Later at a greater national security risk today than we
were on Thursday because the commander in chief showed that,
but he's not capable of serving.
Speaker 7 (14:20):
Burgham argued that the US is facing a greater national
security risk today because the nation's adversaries saw Biden is
not capable of serving. This comes as calls are growing
for Biden to step aside after he struggled during Thursday's debate.
Bergham is considered to be on Trump's short list for
a vice president, and the Supreme Court is expected to
rule on former President Trump's immunity case today. After the
(14:41):
release of several decisions Friday, Chief Justice John Roberts announced
that Monday is going to be the last decision day
of the term. The case centers around federal charges accusing
Trump of trying to overturn the results of the twenty
twenty election. The decision could impact all of Trump's pending
court cases past politics. Mark Mayfield, NBC News Radio.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Democrats are coming to President Biden's defense following his quote
unquote poor debate performance last week, Lisa Carton reports.
Speaker 8 (15:07):
In an interview with CNN State of the Union, former
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi conceded Biden had a bad night,
but urged voters to look at his record. She argued,
it's not about performance in terms of a debate, by
performance in a presidency. Pelosi also sharply criticized former President Trump,
claiming that Americans are aware of the lies he told
(15:27):
on the debate stage. I'm Lisa Carton.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Even more trouble for Democrats. The defense in the corruption
trial of New Jersey Senator Robert Menendez is expected to
begin presenting its case this week.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Larry Kofsky has more.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Among the first defense witnesses expected to appear, Menendez's sister,
The New York Post report she'll tell the court menendez
hoarding of cash is not evidence of a crime, and
that his Cuban family has a history of stashing cash
outside of banks. Prosecutors wrapped up seven weeks of testimony Friday,
outlining a scheme in which Menendez and his wife allegedly
(16:01):
accepted cash, gold bars, and mercedes, and other gifts in
exchange for political favors. Larry Kofski NBC News Radio this.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Fourth of July, the heat is on. Chris Carragio has details.
Speaker 5 (16:14):
Record temperatures are expected nationwide, with humidity in the South
making areas such as New Orleans feel close to one
hundred and twenty degrees. Parts of Arizona, California, and Nevada
could see the temperature hit near one hundred and fifteen degrees,
with both Las Vegas and Phoenix expected to hit the
number around the holiday. Heat advisories are in effect for
much of the East Coast as well.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Hey it's me Michael.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Your morning show has heard live from five to eight
am Central, six to nine am Eastern, three to six
am Pacific on great radio stations like News Radio eleven
ninety k EX in Portland, News Talk five fifty k FYI,
and Phoenix, Arizona Freedom one oh four seven in Washington,
d C.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
We'd love to have you join us.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
Live in the morning, even take us along on the
drive to work.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
But better late than never enjoyed the podcast.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
I know you expecting like a short holiday week, you know,
nothing going on, Just the opposite. Joe Biden spent the
weekend at Camp David discussing his future re election campaign
with family members. It begs the question, who could convince
this man to step down? And I doubt it'd be
his family. It's the last day for the Supreme Court
(17:20):
to give us some of their decisions from this session,
not the least of.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Which is the Trump immunity case.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
We'll talk about that with Rory O'Neal in minutes and
scorching heat planned for the fourth of July, with a
hurricane in the Caribbean, what else could go on? Aaron
Royal is joining US record summer travel getting ready to
get started, and I guess that would mean a record
number of flight delays.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Can't be too far behind.
Speaker 9 (17:43):
Nope, they cannot. So let me give you the numbers. TSA.
They're expecting his screens.
Speaker 10 (17:47):
Thirty two million travelers between the Friday that just passed
June twenty eighth, and then.
Speaker 9 (17:52):
A week from today, the July eighth, that Monday. This
is a lot.
Speaker 10 (17:57):
It is beating last year's numbers by five percent.
Speaker 9 (18:00):
Last year was a record year for air travel.
Speaker 10 (18:02):
So people are getting out there. They are willing to
go into debt for it. I actually did another story
on that that people are taking out extreme credit card
debt to take this vacation. Oh, they're going to go
on it, But that doesn't mean delays there going to
be any more accommodating. I think what's also interesting, Michael Heat.
We always think of snow as being the big delay culprit,
but apparently heat and I did not know this until
(18:23):
researching for this story. Heat creates thin air, and thin
air apparently hampers a plane's thrust during takeoff.
Speaker 9 (18:32):
In order to get to that a sense, so that
it's flying.
Speaker 10 (18:34):
So that means that an airplane needs either a much
longer runway or a much lighter aircraft aka less bags
than people on it in order to take off. And
this is going to create an increase in flight cancelations.
Speaker 9 (18:48):
These high temperatures.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Wow, yeah right, I know that heat makes it bumpier.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
You know, that's one thing, because you know the heat
reflects off the earth and then it bumps the plane.
Didn't know, I mean, I guess cinner air, but I
would have thought maybe that would just make it longer,
not necessarily needing to be canceled. But yeah, just and
I was just shocked. That's a lot of people flying.
I mean, that's close to what raw forty million flying.
(19:15):
I would but I wanted to dust out what is
extreme debt? I want to see if I was guilty
of extreme or moderate debt? I mean I only want
to Sandusky, Ohio for crying out loud. No.
Speaker 10 (19:26):
No, So by extreme, I think it's like just adding
more to your credit card debt and then you throw
a twenty one percent interest on it.
Speaker 9 (19:32):
That's extreme. That's extreme, right.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Yeah, No, it doesn't matter what you do.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Now, we chose as a family to go somewhere where
we could drive to avoid five airplane tickets, I mean
five airplane tickets plus hotels for an entire family, plus
if you're going to someplace like Disney or what have you,
your daily passes and yeah, I mean vacations are very
very expensive. But it shows people are ready to have.
The two things that we've dusted out is when will
(19:57):
people be ready to spend again, They certainly are ready
to spend. They don't have the money, so it's just
going to more debt, which is bad. And then we
talked about you know often, you know, how would they
spend their money if they have to, will be on
things or experiences. It would point to those experiences and
they're willing to go into debt.
Speaker 10 (20:18):
Right, Yeah, experiences and they're willing to go into debt.
And then beyond that, if you're just looking like strictly
at the air travel, it's been so gnarly last year.
We have air traffic controllers that there frankly just aren't
enough of them.
Speaker 9 (20:30):
There's not enough pilots.
Speaker 10 (20:32):
You have the Boeing fiasco, so you're having delays on planes,
and older planes tend to have more technical.
Speaker 9 (20:38):
Issues, so it's kind of a perfect storm.
Speaker 10 (20:40):
But then you have this influx of so many people
traveling in a situation where the airport there is like
almost collisions on runways.
Speaker 9 (20:48):
Last year, you're like, when you stop and you think
about it, you're like, you have to book less flights. Airlines,
you have to book less.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
Flights if you're going to Cancun or Jamaica. You got
burrel out there swirling around as a category three her.
All right, so now we know that we lost a
lot of pilots to early retirement during COVID. They got
bought out cent early retirement. But but there's been plenty of
time to replenish that. Are we still dealing with pilot shortages?
Speaker 9 (21:11):
So not that is not the leading culprit.
Speaker 10 (21:12):
The air traffic controllers are apparently, and there's some required
vacation and like brakes as there should be. I don't
want any air sleepy, like you know, like yes, let
them go to bed, Let them go to bed, like
they need to do their job, need being tip top shake,
get them a coffee.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
This just did, this just did. Joe Biden has stepped
down as a candidate for president. He's now an air
traffic controller for Aaron and her family traveling to Cincinnati today.
Speaker 9 (21:38):
It's like, what's more terrifying? Yeah, no, they're it's a
difficult situation.
Speaker 10 (21:44):
Obviously, their staffing is better, and actually the airlines have
said they are in a better position to absorb this heavy,
heavy travel season this year than last year. I mean,
they couldn't have been in a worse position last year,
and they just were not capable and it was like
epic levels of failure. So I guess any improvement in
some improvement, but it's not great. It's not great at all.
And they're expecting Actually, the CEO of United he said
(22:07):
that he's projecting a seven percent increase in flyers from
last year, American expecting a ten percent increase, So they're.
Speaker 9 (22:15):
Ready to absorb some of it.
Speaker 10 (22:16):
But I think us as flyers, if you are flying,
if you're going anywhere, be ready to absorb some weight time.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
If you think better off in a hub city, I
would think if anybody gets tripped up, I'm thinking of
our Tulsa listeners or Oklahoma City listeners, because you all
know you got to go to Dallas before you can
go anywhere. You'll probably be fine once you get to Dallas.
Before you get stuck at these non hub airports, probably
a little more easily, I would think.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
Yeah, you'd be surprised, Michael.
Speaker 10 (22:41):
So based on air traffic patterns and airport density New York,
New York City, like the LGA, JFK, Newark, all those
and Florida, all of Florida are subject to the highest
risks back up, because you have the density issued so
many people coming into these hubs.
Speaker 9 (23:00):
So the exact opposite.
Speaker 10 (23:01):
If you're leading from like a smaller you might find
yourself in a better position. Of course, if you're going
to a major hub, that that the point is moved.
Speaker 9 (23:09):
But I think the hack, and I don't know why not.
Everyone has realized.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
This hang on has great hacks. Here we go, I
have here we go.
Speaker 10 (23:17):
Everyone brace themselves. Take the first flight out you possibly can. Yes,
you might need to wake up at four am. Michael
and I do it every day, and we're fine.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Yeah, look at us, We're only gonna die fifteen years premature.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
But look at us.
Speaker 9 (23:31):
It's fine, it's fine, We're gonna be okay.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
They're cheaper too, right, cheaper flights, cheaper flights, and you
don't get stuck somewhere. Now, that's a good hacker.
Speaker 10 (23:39):
Ever, and also it's not too hot, and now that
the heat is causing planes not to take off, like
I just I feel like just take the first flight out.
It's it's always a breeze. Like I feel like everyone's
a little bit more focused. They haven't yet had the
whole date of fatigue over nonsense.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Yeah, it's a winning where's everybody going the most?
Speaker 1 (23:57):
I mean it's still overseas.
Speaker 10 (23:59):
Oh so it's well if we're talking domestic in the
major places DC, New York, the big cities of Florida.
A lot of people going to Florida this summer. Surprisingly overseas,
we are seeing overseas travel. And know what, the Europeans
love it because we Americans we accidentally kip everywhere where.
Speaker 9 (24:15):
It's not meant to be.
Speaker 10 (24:18):
They're like, these guys are great, they're rich and they're
just making it right.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
Let me tell you there's a lot of good times
hit a very affordable rate in Sandusky, Ohio. If you
want to go check out the the amusement park. All right,
they're in great reporting, have a great day. We'll talk
again tomorrow. If you're just waking up.
Speaker 11 (24:34):
These are your top not one, not two, not three,
not four, but top five stories of the day.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Where to begin. North Dakota Governor Doug Bergham may even
be Trump's finance VPPIC says President Biden is not capable,
not just staying on the ticket, He's not capable of
serving as commander in chief right now.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Mark Mayfield has more.
Speaker 7 (24:58):
That's what he told the NBC Meet the Press days
after Biden and Donald Trump meant for the first presidential
debate of the twenty twenty four election. Bergham argued that
the US is facing a greater national security risk today
because the nation's adversaries saw Biden is not capable of serving.
Burgham is considered to be on Trump's shortlist for vice president.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
I'm Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
If we were playing on family feud, name something about
the fourth of July fireworks, what would be number two?
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Hot?
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Of course, the heat is on. It's the fourth of July.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
But here's Chris Garagio with more.
Speaker 5 (25:33):
Record temperatures are expected nationwide, with humidity in the South,
making areas such as New Orleans feel close.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
To one hundred and twenty degrees.
Speaker 5 (25:41):
Parts of Arizona, California, and Nevada could see the temperature
hit near one hundred and fifteen degrees, with both Las
Vegas and Phoenix expected to hit the number around the holiday.
Heat advisories are in effect for much of the East
Coast as well.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
I'm Chris Croagio.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
The defense and the corruption trial of New Jersey Senator
Robert Menendez is expected to begin presenting its case this week.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Larry Kofski reports.
Speaker 4 (26:04):
Among the first defense witnesses expected to appear Menendez's sister.
The New York Post report she'll tell the court menendez
hoarding of cash is not evidence of a crime and
that his Cuban family has a history of stashing cash
outside of banks. Prosecutors wrapped up seven weeks of testimony Friday,
outlining a scheme in which Menendez and his wife allegedly
(26:26):
accepted cash, gold bars, and Mercedes and other gifts in
exchange for political favors. Larry Kofski NBC News Radio.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
A judge is rejecting Alec Baldwin's latest attempt to have
his involuntary manslaughter charges against him dismissed.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
Mark Mayfield's back to Phillis in the.
Speaker 7 (26:43):
Award winning after was involved in the accidental shooting death
of cinematographer Helena Hutchins on a movie set in New
Mexico back in twenty twenty one. He recently asked the
judge to throw out the case after the gun that
killed Hutchins was damaged during forensic testing on Friday. The
judge refused to dismiss the case, paving the way for
a jury selection so the trial can begin in July.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
I'm mark Nephield.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
One for the money, more like one hundred and fifty
K for the money. Elvis's Blue Swede shoes had been
sold at auction. Lisa Cardon has all the details, but
it was one.
Speaker 11 (27:13):
Full of money for the show.
Speaker 8 (27:18):
Elvis Presley's Blue Swede shoes have sold for more than
one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. The iconic item from
the King of Rock and Rolls wardrobe was bought by
an American collector based in California as part of an
auction by Henry Aldridge and Son. Presley made the shoes
famous in his cover of Blue Swede Shoes and wore
them for several performances. He gave them to her friend
(27:39):
the night before he left for the army in nineteen
fifty eight, who kept them until now. I'm Lisa Carton.

Speaker 2 (28:19):
And now that's your top five stories of the day.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
This is Rebecca in spring Hill, Tennessee, and my morning
show is your Morning Show with Michael del Jorno. Good morning,
Welcome to a new week in a new month, Monday,
July the first year of Our Lord twenty twenty four
coming up just after the break. And if you don't

But we're gonna visit with best selling author Howard Bloom
what really has happened in the murder of four University
of Idaho students as the suspect prepares for trial. Best
(29:07):
selling author Howard Bloom just released the first definitive book
on the murders ahead of Coberger's trial. He's going to
join us to discuss that in minutes on your Morning
show for Just Waking Up. President Biden spent Sunday at
Camp David to discuss his future plans with his family members,
though all indications are he doesn't plan to budge. Today
(29:28):
is the last day for the Supreme Court decisions this
term one of the biggest cases, and I is roy
O'Neil here by the way, Okay, Rory, they can't put
it up today We're going to find out about immunity.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
Right right, boy?
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Talk about drama queens at the Supreme Court dragging this
out to the last possible moment, even going into July,
which is rare. But you know, back in April, the
lawyers for the former president argued that a president has
absolute immunity for official acts while I in office, and
that the immunity of after leaving office as well. So look,
(30:03):
when this announcement and this ruling is announced, the mean
a lot of rush to judgment about what the count
is six three, five, four seven two.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Whatever, eight six three oh nine.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
Goo ahead.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
You really got to read the details of this one
because they are going to be there's going to be
some pretty parsing language here.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Yeah, and there's a lot of details to this. But
let's say they rule the president doesn't have immunity. Everybody's
gonna think it's a Trump story. Not necessarily right, it's
in anybody who's ever been or ever going to be
president president's story.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
It's also opened the question about, you know, when do
presidential acts begin when to personalize? Like what the speech
that Donald Trump gave on January sixth? Was that presidential?
Was that political? Was that you know about the was
that the candidate speaking or the president speaking? And that's
a pretty fuzzy line.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
Yeah, I mean the answer is when I speak, one
am I being talk show host to Michael del Jorner.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
One, am I being husband, Michael del Jorner?
Speaker 1 (31:07):
What am I being father?
Speaker 2 (31:08):
Michael del Johner?
Speaker 1 (31:09):
One am I being born again Christian? Michael delor Guess why?
You're always so? But I mean, but that's the language
of the law is where that becomes relevant.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
And guess what not just Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Every president who has served in any president who serves
in the future. In fact, this may have a lot
to do with how Joe Biden is held accountable in
the future. So there's a lot writing for people. But yeah,
I think the clear and immediate concern would be for
Donald Trump. I mean, is it possible we're heading towards
neither of them being on the ticket?
Speaker 9 (31:42):
Well?
Speaker 3 (31:42):
Yeah, right, but you know if he does well, because
you know, even with this ruling, now that it's so late,
you know, none of these other trials with with Donald
Trump will happen before November. So that was the other
thing is that just by dragging this out as much
as possible, it's really most of the other experts agreed
that the lower court here I think it was the
Eleventh Circuit got it right and was a tight bundled
(32:06):
ruling that should have just the court should have just
taken it and not even ruled on the issue.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
What do you read into I mean waiting so long
a y B. Isn't that kind of a ruling in
and of itself? Well?
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Right?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
And how much is that supporting Donald Trump? Or you know,
did they not want to get involved in the debate
last week? I would counter that I would rather we
did know this ruling ahead of the debate so we
could have their comments on it, because as it stands now,
we're not going to get ahead to head discussion about it.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Listen, take it from a guy who want to stay
championship in high school. If you're going to lose a game,
don't lose more than you win. And if you're going
to lose, you I had an easier time losing ten
to nothing than I did four to three. So if
you're going to lose big, I only got it completely
wrong because my guess was this would be the first
ruling released and as it comes, it'll be in the
batch of the last. What else are we expecting in
(32:57):
thirty seconds or less? Today, all the focuses on the
immunity case, but what other.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
Have real That's really the only one that's still outstanding
that we're paying attention to.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Well that exact quick the Biden campaign is committing to
keeping him at the top of the ticket. That's the
indication anyway. Rory's going to be back next hour. And
then I want to kick around with you something I
read because only Biden can step down, They can't make him.
Only he can release his delegates, but not so fast
(33:27):
legally even there when it comes to Georgia, Nevada, and
Wisconsin because of the.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
Way their ballot laws are written. More with Wory on
that coming up. We're all in this together. This is
your Morning Show with Michael En Hill Jowno
