hit subscribe that way it's waiting for you every morning. Well,
good morning, and welcome to Tuesday, the twenty seventh of August.
You have our lord twenty twenty four. If you're just
waking up, Martha and the Van dell Is say, we
have a heat wave and it is see I told you,
and it's returning to central and eastern US this week.

(01:23):
Former Hawaiian representative and presidential candidate Democrat Telsea Gabbard comes
out and joins RFK Junior and endorsing Donald Trump. And
we're expecting a busy labor day travel weekend, and just
in time for that, gas prices are up. And you
got Huthi's at sea, you got Hamas. Still no peace deal,
the Hesbalah escalation with the proxy war with Iran and Russia,

(01:48):
and oil price is rising anywhere. To rest our eyes,
we turned to Lieutenant Colonel James Carafano on what America
can do to best help the world achieve peace and
to cease fire. As we seem to be headed quickly
in the wrong direction.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
Good morning.

Speaker 4 (02:04):
Here's something I really don't understand, which he's gone wild here, right,
This is a not even a government with largely subsisting
on rocket and missile imports from Iran. They have tied
up the entire traffic through the Red Sea into the

(02:25):
Suez Canal, literally probably the world's most vital maritime line
of supply. The Chinese and Russians are just waltzing around
the Red Sea because the Hutis aren't bothering them, and
of course they're indifferent to everybody else's need for freedom
of the seas. And we have literally the entire fleet

(02:49):
sitting there. Why are we tolerating this? I literally don't
have a good you know, the things I just don't
have good answers for, Like, you know, what's the the
Ukrainian offensive in Russia. What's that really gonna mean? I
don't really know. I'm just I'm just sitting here because
unlike a lot of analysts, I'm actually bounded by facts, right,

(03:14):
and when I see behavior that I just make no
sense whatsoever. And I don't know why. I just I'm
not going to, you know, gas and say some conspiracies
that I'm just gonna say this like makes no freaking sense.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Well, I was having I was having a conversation with
roy O'Neil last hour, and we're talking about, you know,
the Polaris Launch and uh SpaceX and and what would
all these programs seemingly have in common, which is NASA
now in partnership with these private investors as opposed to
funding it all and through contracts. And then you know,

(03:48):
I was like, just like you, I'm like, okay, well
I get that. But at the end of the day,
what's the mission, what's the goal? It's oh, well, you know,
some people want to live on Mars.

Speaker 4 (03:59):
Oh okay, well, I actually see that's a totally different
catileficion See, when I don't have facts, strangely, what I
do is I go out and get them. So space
is something I'm really really interested in. I am not
a space expert. So I went and got together a

(04:20):
couple of dozen no you know, like real serious people
who really know what they're talking about. We shat them
down the room, We asked them all these questions. And
then from that I just still think. And so one
of the things that I distilled is the value of
space to the United States is enormous. That the Chinese
have a plan by twenty forty nine, which is some anniversary,

(04:45):
to completely dominate space.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
That's different.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
That gets back to the original space vision of John F. Kennedy.
Just as land is important to war, see as important
to war, air is important to war. Space would have
the ultimate say in defense and war, and it must
be owned by the good guys, not the bad guys.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
That I get.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
And then the whole book shot was just to stretch
us in the industries that it created. I mean microwave
this morning.

Speaker 4 (05:09):
So the thing is, it's not what are we doing
messing around in spaces? Why aren't we doing way more
in space? And the interesting thing about all the things
that you just mentioned is if you look at where
our space program is really being successful today, it's in
the private sector innovation. And there's nothing easier than to

(05:30):
compass these two capsule programs, star Liner and Dragon right.
Starliner is a traditional NASA program. They went to a
big contractor they contracted for this. They had a fixed
price contract. Okay, I get that they failed on date,

(05:50):
quality and performance. So there's only the conviction contract by
the Boeing.

Speaker 5 (05:58):
Sorry else, I was just gonna say, and for poor
and for poor h was a butcher sonny and they're
stuck in space until February, right.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
Well, it was just you know, this isn't This is
another interesting because apparently a lot of people don't realize
that for the last four years, American space policy has
been directed by Kamala Harris, who is the chair of
the Space Council, and so all it was tweeted out, Hey,
you guys know she's the share of the Space Council
and she she's strategy astronauts in space and over ninety

(06:32):
house and people for an next thing. For me, that's
a big deal. Like, looked at that, Like what Camar
has charge of our space program.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
She was also in charge she along with Joe and
we're both in charge of build back better and we
know how that worked out.

Speaker 3 (06:47):
But yeah, no, look, don John F.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
Kennedy covered all of this when he talked about what
it will take to get to the Moon, because remember
his famous speech was, you know why does Rice play Texas?
Because he knew the stretching of going to the moon
and the problems that would have to be solved to
the get to the moon and back would create industries.

Speaker 3 (07:09):
He got that.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
He also got the ultimate national security portion of it.
I don't know if we have a bad spokesperson. I
don't know if we've let go of the vision to others.
In other words, private people see the value of space
more than government. Private people see the value of national
security more than government, which is the priority of the
formation of the federal government. I don't know what it is,
or is it just a bad spokesperson or all of

(07:31):
the above. But yeah, same thing that you're dealing with.
All right, Why are we letting huthies go around and
harassed them?

Speaker 6 (07:37):
It?

Speaker 3 (07:37):
See, blow him up?

Speaker 4 (07:39):
Yeah, So the shorter ns I think the space is Look,
Kennedy is the right answer. You know, Kennedy was not
a scientist, obviously, but John Kennedy was in charge of
our space program, and he made decisions, and he moved
the program decisively in a direction. President ought to be

(08:01):
in charge of the Space Council, just like the presidents
in charge of the National Security Council, and they ought
to be making the hard decisions. So if you want
to go back and say, well, where did our space
program go wrong? And the answer wasn't went wrong under
Richard Nixon, who basically took a very successful vision and
the saved money just said Okay, we're gonna we're going
to do the safe, you know, which in turn not

(08:23):
to be the safe not to be the and then
we got into the shuttle program and really destroyed the
vision that we built on and the lead that we
built on in space for a decade. So now we
have the greatest challenge. People have no idea. The Chinese
could fail. Every other place they could, the Belgian road
could fail. You know, they may not be able to
conquer Taiwan. They're right, yeah, forget all that stuff. But

(08:48):
if they win on biotechnology or quantum computing or space,
the three big bets that I'm making, if they win
on one of those threes, you know, you assume we
have a problem.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
Yeah, big time.

Speaker 1 (09:03):
The American people have a shared role on that too,
because nobody, you know, John F.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
Kennedy got killed. There was no way to carry forward
the vision.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
We did get a man on the moon and safely
returned to Earth by the end of the decade, and
then the vision just kind of died there. And then
America is looking going, why do we keep going back
to the moon, And thus Nixon began to cut the program,
and then the vision for the shuttle program arose in
the eighties. But let me ask you this, this this
whole war thing, all right, So we're kind of compartmentalizing everything,

(09:34):
all right, So we got Hamas like there's something completely
individual and of themselves, and can we get a ceasefire?
Can we get a hostage exchange? Meanwhile, we got Hesbalah
and an escalation both the proxies of Iran. Then you
got the Houthi's misbehaving at sea. Why are we viewing
these all as separate entities rather than all really the
same means motive and opportunity.

Speaker 4 (09:56):
Well, for the simple reason that if we acknowledg publicly
that the root of all these failures is Iran run
wild because of the billions of dollars that we funneled
into Iran because of a policy of engagement and alignment
the last four years, we would basically say, oh, we

(10:21):
have to admit our policy was a giant failure, and
we don't want to do that. So, like on so
many issues, whether it's border or other things, we don't
want to talk about. You know, it's not the elephant
in the room, it's the donkey in the round.

Speaker 3 (10:33):
It Well, no, because here's the deal. Explain to them.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
The origins of the Islamic Republic of Iran goes back
to Jimmy Carter, then the Obama and Biden both and
that now entails twelve years of the last sixteen years
of policies have all not only created but emboldened the
iran That is the problem.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
I mean it really you're not partisan.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
I'm not partisan usually, but I gotta tell you this
one is partisan.

Speaker 4 (10:59):
And it's not just that they've made a bunch of
stupid decisions. They've actually hired a bunch of people who
are actually actively colluding with the Iranian regime to implement
policies that are best to run. And you cannot say
Jim's just making this suppens it's a conspiracy failing. Rob Malley,
who who was the envoy, has been off the books

(11:20):
for two years and I guess about two years now,
and the reason for that is is the active investigation
of him colluding with the Iranians. So this is a
bigger This is a bigger problem than almost any other thing,
because this is one in which the people that are
advocating for the bad guys are actually integral to the
US decision making process. I mean, this is like what

(11:42):
they remember where they always attacked Trump for where you know,
he's friendly with Putin, which was a lie. You know,
he's colluding with Putin, which was a lie. You know,
they indicted him. Over all these lives, they are doing exactly.
They have people in the government with clearance is doing
exactly the kind of things that that they accused Trump of,
which they, by the way, relies.

Speaker 1 (12:04):
Closing moments with Lieutenant Colonel James Carafano, all right, walk
us through what concerns you most. I mean, I think
we're begetting the oil is based on futures and so
between the Houthis Hamas and Hezbollab the futures don't look
right and the prices are rising beyond oil.

Speaker 3 (12:18):
What is your concern and what is the state?

Speaker 4 (12:20):
So we've got to get the Iran policy right. This
is this is just not optional. We have to get
the Iran policy right because if the Middle East just
just blows up, then everything else, all the other dominoes,
you know, because when the problem with saying, well the
dominoes follows that often they do. The other thing is
you got to get in Venezuela right. I mean, Latin

(12:40):
America is just becoming uh, You're never going to secure
the border with Latin America runwild and the root of
that right now is Venezuela. So if I'm coming in
if I was coming in office, i would say day one,
winning an iron policy, media Venezuela policy, and uh. And
that's that's the start of fixing the border. It's the
start of you know, pushing off any thought of World

(13:01):
War three period and the statement Mike got to go.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
The other thing is the FBI is warning of a
terrorist attack and the high risk of a terrorist attack.
God help us if it takes another terrorist attack to
get us to focus on doing what is right. But
none of this can happen until next year. Is you're
not going to have a change in administration until next year,
and you may not even have a change. There's a
lot more writing on the selection than we think for

(13:25):
our time and for all time.

Speaker 4 (13:27):
Yeah, I mean, look what are we doing today. We
actually have meeting with the Chinese, like that's going to
solve anything, right, to talk about all these issues, and
we know the Chinese are going to do nothing about them.
So we know we have an administration that between now
and January is likely to do nothing to fix the
big problems that we have that can't be argued.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
Lieutenant Colonel James Carofunal. You can read his great work
and is Collie's great work at Heritage dot org. And
you can hear them every Tuesday here on your morning
show and sooner if conditions warrant, and we pray they don't.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
This is your Morning Show with Michael del Chona.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
Former Hawaiian Representative Telsea Gabbard endorses Donald Trump. Really, it
was kind of a combination of things. One, the Wisconsin
Supreme Court rules that Jill Stein will remain on the
ballot in Wisconsin. That could be a difference maker. Plus
you got Telsea Gabbard and RFK Junior. Put them both
on a bus and send them to Wisconsin. Because as
we've visited with Davids Andato, we realize probably Wisconsin, Nevada,

(14:29):
and Arizona are really going to decide this race. We'll
have more on that coming up. Also, looks like more
protests are on the horizon. Yeah, that old Israeli Hamas
protest chestnut is wearing its ugly head on our college campuses.

Speaker 3 (14:47):
You think they'd be excited about football season.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
And Aaron Rayal is joining us because she always joins
us with the bad news.

Speaker 3 (14:54):
That's right. That cloud you see is erin last hour.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
It was on rising gas prices just in time for
Labor Day travel. And now if you're getting excited about
interest rates coming down and selling your home not so
fast as Lee Corso would say, good morning.

Speaker 7 (15:09):
Erin, Oh good morning. Yes, I know, I know, why
do they give you?

Speaker 1 (15:15):
But why do they give you these assignments? My listeners
are gonna hate my favorite if you keep doing this.

Speaker 7 (15:20):
But yeah, I'm going to bring something happy tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
I'm gonna we'll.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
See if that's your goal.

Speaker 5 (15:27):
The news business.

Speaker 7 (15:28):
Yeah, but home sales, home sales, all right. So essentially,
you can't get flood insurance from a private insurance not
going to happen. There is pretty much only one place
you can get it, and that's the National Flood Insurance Program.
This has been around since nineteen sixty eight. It has
been extended thirty times since twenty twelve, and if they
don't extend it by the end of September, there's not

(15:51):
going to be any more flood insurance. Now you can't
get a mortgage flood insurance. So what this is likely
to do because three times this has actually fail to
be extended and during those times. Most specifically during twenty ten,
it was like made to July of that year, they
saw almost ten percent reported delays or cancelations of sales altogether.

(16:12):
So like, if you thought the housing market was brutal already,
if they don't extend this program, it's going to get
even worse. So they're likely going to extend it. It
might take a while, they might delay. If your policy
is coming up, go ahead and renew it now. You know,
they just do it now because they grandfather the ones in.
But they protect over a trillion dollars in assets with
flood insurance. They have almost five million policy holders. But

(16:34):
here's the big question, Michael. There's the reason they don't
want to keep extending this, and it's because they cannot
afford it. We're going to have to print the money
to take care of this. And then the question becomes
should we even be ensuring certain places given the current
state of the environment. Again, I'm not saying that it's
man made. All I'm saying is like climate is in
fact changing, and it's there are more floods, there are

(16:57):
more catastrophic floods, and it's hard to argue that it
would be in everyone's interest to keep ensuring things that
we're gonna have to rebuild and can't afford.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
I was going to say, for sake of clarification, I'm
looking over our list of cities that were in Most
are inland, and not everybody needs flood insurance unless you're
in a flood plane. But when we start talking about
coastal communities, then it becomes impossible without it. And now
you get into the picking and choosing of winners and losers.

(17:28):
The premiums are already outrageous, which, by the way, I
guess we should add, we have the cost of inflation,
we have the cost of the home values. We have
the high interest rates. We have the lack of inventory
because of the inflation, because of the high interest rates,
and because of the escalation in home values, people aren't
selling their home because they can't get the same amount

(17:49):
of home and it'll be at a higher interest to boot.
So we have an inventory issue. This is just kind
of like one of those remember when, well, you didn't
have to do this, but when you were a Quinnipiac
University you knew the answers. When I was at LSU,
I was guessing the answers, and often I would go
with e all of the above. This the one plus
one plus one plus one plus one does not equal five.

Speaker 3 (18:09):
That needs to be stated.

Speaker 7 (18:11):
Yes, and also like, yes, not everywhere is on the coast,
but listen, we're having catastrophic flooding in places they never
used to get it, like Vermont, right, and I'm laughing,
is that you're like Vermont, Okay, I guess they're like,
you know, the water can melt on the mountains, but
Vermont had catastrophic flooding last summer. So the idea that
you know, oh, well, if I'm inland, this doesn't affect me.

(18:33):
Well maybe if you're in the desert, it doesn't unless
the mountains in California or you know, the the middle
of the country start melting, and then it does affect it.
And so the fact that like no one can really
skirt this, and insurance is designed that you know, not
everyone collects insurance like you need people to. It's not
a Ponzi scheme, but yes, like the insurance is used

(18:54):
by having other people pay and catastrophe not happening.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
So well in insurance is for the things you can't
afford that could happen. And when the premiums get to
be you can't afford the premiums. You're already in checkmate.
The old thing I would say is, look all of
you can't. You can't skirt over five things, and then
hyper focus just on are we having more hurricanes? The

(19:20):
answer is a few more, but not necessarily that many more.
But we are having more flooding, We are having more
you know type things, all right. But also real is
why our insurance premium is so high to begin with.
And that's where inflation comes in. When I bring up
the home values. My house used to be five hundred
and fifty thousand dollars. I just got a thing in

(19:40):
an email this weekend saying it's now one point three million. Well,
that changes my premium dramatically, and replacement cost is impacted dramatically,
and the things that can go wrong are impacted by
material costs. So you know, inflation is the cause of
the insurance crisis as much as or more. Then more

(20:01):
storms and more flooding, But the two together, that's a
that's a bad beat, as they would say.

Speaker 7 (20:07):
A really bad beat. And I it's not that we
shouldn't know what I wanted. I had two thoughts on
that and let me ahead. So number one, the idea
of like self ensuring, I think you said it perfectly.
Insurance is for what you cannot afford. So the idea
of self insuring, you're like, what do you mean, like
just be rich or not? Like those are my options,

(20:27):
that's it. They If you self insure, you're gonna pay
for it when it breaks. That's the stuff. So if
you need a mortgage with most people do, then you
very simply if they don't extend this, which they probably will,
but maybe shouldn't because you know, you have to look
at how insurance is equated for it. Should The government
can always print more money, and that works until it doesn't.
Right now, it's working, but I suspect that one day

(20:50):
it won't. I don't know if that day is in
a thousand years or a thousand days, but one day
that will stop working, just.

Speaker 3 (20:55):
Like you and me erin.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
Eventually, when you max out all your credit cards and
you can't even afford them them payment on all of those,
you're in trouble. And that's what debt does. Also, printing
money is a cost of inflation. It lowers the value
of the dollar. So that's just going further in the
wrong direction. I got news for you. The reality for
America is a lot of damage has been done. We're
now whatever we're heading into, We're heading into thirty five
trillion in debt with a dream of home ownership crisis

(21:19):
and an insurance crisis and an interest rate an inflation crisis,
and an home shortage crisis. Whoever the next president is
has got their hands full. This is not going to
be as easy to solve as it was in twenty sixteen.

Speaker 7 (21:32):
No, it's not. I thank you for saying that, because
if we always give the president too much credit, good
or bad. But I mean, what are you going to do?

Speaker 1 (21:41):
Said what he is? Having said all of that, Andrea,
me and the kids, we're coming to live with you.

Speaker 3 (21:46):
That's our SA to have you aryal great reporting. She
always gets the bats.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
Go find a good story tomorrow so everyone will feel,
you know a little better.

Speaker 3 (21:55):
Find us something easy.

Speaker 2 (21:57):
I will.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
They always give Aaron, because she's the best. They give
her the tough, the tough news Jess, the one that
takes you.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
Takes you into the little room and gives you the
bad news about how surgery went.

Speaker 3 (22:06):
All right, If you're just waking up these are your
top five stories of the day.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
I guess we'll give Tammy Trehilo the charge of kind
of putting all of yesterday's political events into perspective for you.
As Trump says, it's not just me versus Kamala Harris,
it's really communism versus freedom. Tammy Trehuilo with our today
in politics.

Speaker 8 (22:29):
Former President Trump is framing the twenty twenty four election
as a fight between communism and freedom.

Speaker 9 (22:35):
We will restore world peace and it will be again
peace through strength.

Speaker 6 (22:40):
Well.

Speaker 8 (22:40):
Speaking to the National Guard Association in Detroit on Monday,
Trump said, Kamala Harris want Soviet style price controls, endless wars,
open borders, and voting rights for illegal immigrants. The Harris
campaigns as it's raised forty million dollars since the Vice
President gave her acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention.
It brings the total amount of money raised for the
Harris Walls campaign to five hundred and forty million since

(23:02):
President Biden left the race. According to the campaign, a
third of the donations last week we're from first time donors.
Special Council Jack Smith wants to revive Donald Trump's classified
documents case. Last month District Judge Eileen Cannon's it's disappointment
of special counsel by the Department of Justice was unconstitutional
and dismissed the case on Monday. Smith appealed to the
eleventh US Circuit Court of Appeals, arguing that Cannon's decision

(23:25):
lacked merit. That's politics. I'm Tammy Trio in DC News Radio.

Speaker 1 (23:29):
God it sounds a heat wave, a dangerous heat wave
for turning to central and eastern US.

Speaker 3 (23:34):
Lisa Taylor has the details.

Speaker 6 (23:35):
Forecaster say there will be unseasonably hot temperatures in the
upper Midwest and mid Atlantic, where it could feel like
one hundred five to one hundred and fifteen degrees due
to humidity. Dana Griffin with some important tips.

Speaker 10 (23:46):
Well, there is are warning people to stay hydrated, stay indoors,
if you can check on the elderly, keeper pets indoors.
And this is going to last not only today but tomorrow.
But the good news is it's supposed to cool down
a little bit.

Speaker 6 (23:58):
Heat is projected to rise in the Midwest through Tuesday
and will eventually shift to the mid Atlantic and Southeast
by the middle of this week. As of Monday morning,
over thirteen million people were under an excessive heat warning.
I'm misee Taylor.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
You got a feel for the Democrats. They tried impeachment
twice on insurrection. Da've used law fair to make him
a rapist, to felon. They've even had an assassination attempt.
None of its work. Donald Trump is still there and
right in the polls. So what do you do? You
get special counsel Jacksmith to try again on reviving Trump's
classified document case.

Speaker 3 (24:31):
Brian Shook has the report.

Speaker 9 (24:33):
Last month, District Judge Aileen Cannon said Smith's appointment of
special counsel by the Department of Justice was unconstitutional and
dismissed the case. On Monday, Smith appealed to the eleventh
US Circuit Court of Appeals, arguing that Cannon's decision lacked merit.
Trump was accused by the FEDS of taking classified documents
from the White House after he left office and illegally

(24:56):
storing them at his Marra A Lago estate in Florida.

Speaker 3 (25:00):
Brian Shook.

Speaker 1 (25:04):
The story of rock and roll legend Richie Vallens is
headed back to the big screen. Variety reports Sony Pictures
is developing a remake of the Golden Globe nominated in
nineteen eighty seven film La Bamba. The movie told the
story of Allen's rise as a field worker to a
teenage rock star. Believe it or not, Richie Vallence was
just seventeen years old when he died in a plane
crash with Buddy Holly and the Big Bopper on the

(25:26):
day Music died. The writer and director of the original film,
Luis Valdez, will serve as executive producer. In Sports Well,
almost all of our cities lost, except for the two
cities that were playing each other. Somebody had to win.
Mariners won Seattle five to one over Tampa. Cleveland lost
four to three to the Royals and nine to four

(25:46):
of the Royals.

Speaker 3 (25:47):
They lost twice.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
Yesterday, Cardinals lost seven to four to the Padres, and
Nationals lost five to two to the Yankees, and the
Rangers and d Backs were off. We've said and documented
had Tuesday Wells met, fell in love with, and married
Frederick March the II.

Speaker 3 (26:02):
What a unique.

Speaker 1 (26:02):
Opportunity we would have had to have Tuesday March the third. Yeah,
it's very deep. Wouldn't that have been neat?

Speaker 3 (26:10):
It would have been neat, But that's very deep.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
I'm Joe Big in Tampa and my morning show is
your Morning Show with Michael bill Jorno.

Speaker 3 (26:21):
Thanks for working up with your morning show. I'm Michael
del Jorno.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
Well, the men's gymnastics team had the pommel horse guy.

Speaker 3 (26:28):
We have Roory O'Neil. We always give him the final story.

Speaker 1 (26:31):
He gives us the big dismount and we stick the
landing and call it a day. Yesterday was a very
interesting day. We had Telsea Gabbard, a candidate for President
of the United States, join RFK Junior in support of
Donald Trump. The Supreme Court ruled that Jill Stein can
remain on the ballot. That's huge for Wisconsin. And then
of course you have the Bipartisan Commission in Pennsylvania still

(26:55):
being bipartisan Republicans and Democrats alike, getting to the bottom
of what happened in that assassination attempt. Probably not the
greatest news. Meanwhile, here at home, we have students returning
to campus. You think they'd have college football on their mind,
but they don't. Israeli Hamas protests and Rory's here with
the story.

Speaker 11 (27:14):
Yeah, Cornell doesn't really have a great football team.

Speaker 3 (27:17):
Now that you're and that maybe part of the problem.

Speaker 11 (27:21):
No, we are seeing already some protests on campuses like Cornell,
even some vandalism on campus. The glass of a door
was shattered, there was graffiti painted outside one of the
on campus buildings as well. And the concern is that
are we setting ourselves up for some of the protests
that we saw in the springtime erupting at some of

(27:42):
these same college campuses.

Speaker 3 (27:44):
Yesterday at the Governor of.

Speaker 11 (27:45):
New York had a virtual meeting with the leaders of
two hundred different colleges and universities in the state, saying, hey, Mike,
sure you're updating your policies and plans to address this,
trying to nip it in the bud. We've already seen
a lot of colleges meant policies like no overnight camping
to prevent the kind of encampments we saw at Columbia

(28:05):
and UCLA.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
And their demands are from the pro Palestinian protesters. They
want to cease fire right instantly, the ceasefire.

Speaker 11 (28:14):
They want, you know, stop funding for Israel. But they
also for instance, Brown University preempted a protest there because
the demand was that they divet that the university divest
it's from its holdings in the Middle East, and Brown
agreed and so there's no protest.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
I know you're a big Herman Hermits fan. Second verse
same as the first. What do we learn from the
first verse that universities that didn't protect their campus and
the security and the right to go to class for
all their students all ended up either resigning or getting fired.
So what are these universities doing because second verse will
not be same as the first. Everyone's watching to see

(28:52):
if they can maintain control, right.

Speaker 11 (28:54):
We're also seeing, you know, they're taking actions to make
sure that it's actually student led protests. That was the
other issue, especially at Columbia. You know, outside agitators coming
on to campus to stir the pot. Are they being
paid for by some foreign entity like Iran? So a
lot of those questions are out there so much in
some campuses you'll see stricter enforcement of campus ID rules

(29:18):
in order for people to be on campus. Also know,
face coverings if you are protests, or even limiting the hours,
say seven am to ten pm.

Speaker 3 (29:27):
It's gonna be interesting to watch.

Speaker 1 (29:28):
This Israel problem has not gone away, not for the
Democrats or on campus. Rory, great reporting all day. Thank
you we'll talk again tomorrow. I'm going to take the
final say. In our final minute, we were just having
a conversation with Aaron Real and we were talking a
little bit about, you know, the housing crisis and now
the insurance crisis, with the interest rate crisis, with the

(29:48):
house shortage crisis, with the price of home crisis, and
what that's doing, the inventory crisis, what that's doing to
home ownership and home sales. You know, I'm reminded of
this analogy. Forget this, and it's not They have often preached,
very often the confession is for failing the standard of

(30:09):
a perfect holy God that we confess and in our
Savior have coverage that solves the eternal debt? What is
the earthly debt? And how is that to be handled
through repentance? Now, not getting overly spiritual here, but to
say it's one thing to identify these problems and then

(30:31):
say ah or in checkmate, only if we continue in
the same wrong direction, How can we get back on
all of this the same way, reversing your steps and
repentance that you got here. Stop printing money, start paying
down debt. Define what is the proper size and role
of government? What is the role and responsibility of its citizens.

(30:51):
Stop this two party us versus them nonsense. Be Americans,
go back to our original intent and solve these problems together.
And guess what, that's not waiting on the outcome of
a presidential election, maybe more so a congressional election, but ultimately,
we the people.

Speaker 2 (31:12):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
