Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, It's Michael. Your morning show can be heard on
great radio stations across the country like News Talk ninety
two point one and six hundred WREC in Memphis, Tennessee,
or thirteen hundred The Patriot and Tulsa our Talk six
fifty KSTE in Sacramento, California. We invite you to listen
live while you're getting ready in the morning, and to
take us along for the drive to work. But as
we always say, better late than never. Thanks for joining
(00:21):
us for the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Well two three, starting your morning off right, A new
way of talk, a new way of understanding because we're
in the stage. This is your morning show with Michael
gil Jordan.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
That is the voice of Mike McCann. Used to work
for WQUE in New Orleans. I grew up listening to him.
Proud to have him as the voice of your morning show.
Seven minutes after the hour. Thanks for working up with this.
I am Michael del Jorno and welcome to Tuesday, December,
the tenth of Our Lord twenty twenty four. By the way,
can I just get a quick tip here while we're
having a bad show? For sure, if you're calling to
(01:01):
make a legitimate comment or ask a legitimate question. It
is not necessary to end your comment with and my
morning show it your more. That's something completely separate you
may or may not want to do. That's just your
way of introducing yourself to everyone else at the breakfast
table this morning. But because we may be coast to coasts,
(01:21):
but we're really a small family, a small family of patriotic, loving,
godly Americans just trying to understand the day. But I
do appreciate the effort. Yes, the effort's fine. Are we
playing these right now? Am I? Moving on to sounds
of them? You can do whatever you want to do?
Can we confirm that there really is a bull Is
it bullfrog? Bullfrog Mississippi? Believe is what she said? Were
(01:44):
you able to find it?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Red?
Speaker 1 (01:46):
What is read out? He doesn't look. I think there
is a bullfrog corner?
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Bullfrog corner right?
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Because you know I love the movie, Uh, Doc, Hollywood,
would you love to go living a place like Grady Be?
There be at the Squash Capital when they're having their
summer squash festival. You remember when he walks by the
little theater and they're all watching the Silent Movie, laughing great,
And then when he's in Los Angeles and he's missing Grady.
(02:16):
He calls up and gets the time and temperature, and
the woman giving the time of temperature sounded just like this.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Hey should This is sharing from Bullfrog Corner, Mississippi, and
My Morning show is your Morning Show with Michael Dale Johno.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Call from Grady. There's more. What else do we have?
Obviously she's listening to Jackson Mississippi. We have Kate ste.
This is the dog gone one seventy seconds.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Bob in Georgia.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
I'm kind of curious on the McDonald's employee. Is somebody
going to give him a reward? Maybe McDonald's for all
the free publicity they're going to receive over the next week.
Your morning show is My Morning You don't.
Speaker 6 (02:59):
Have to do that.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Why a guy in Georgia is listening to kste and Sacramento.
That's all very confusing. But to answer your question, they
ought to write we were talking about this earlier. Now
it's a pretty recognizable face. It's not like, you know,
it's not like Luigi just only showed us his eyes
though he did, you know, he lowered his mask and
showed his face to the girl he was flirting with
(03:22):
at the hostel he showed his face at the Starbucks
and then we got him really good in the taxicab.
I don't know as much as and I said this
to Red off the air. I don't know if they
knew who he was, but they couldn't find him. But
I can tell you this, everybody's looking at his face.
Someone's going to see him somewhere. And that's exactly the
(03:44):
way it went down. Literally like what ninety minutes later,
So he's in an Altoona McDonald's sitting there eating chicken McNuggets,
and the worker who served him felt pretty good that
that's the face I've been seeing on TV. So he
called local law enforcement. Two police officers arived. They said
later in a news conference, we pretty much knew we
had our guy immediately. Now. It was confirmed, because no
(04:07):
matter how long they were combing the lake at Central Park,
the murder weapon was still on him, as was a
three page manifesto against high profits of CEOs at major corporations,
as was the very same New Jersey fake ID with
(04:28):
name and picture that he used at the hostel in
New York. So they got their guy, and it turns
out a twenty six year old Luigi Mangione. He's from
a well to do family outside of Maryland. We went
to private school there. Gilman School is what we say
for junior high thirty five grand a year, just under
forty grand for high school a year he was the valedictorian.
(04:49):
He went to an Ivy League college. Is a very
intelligent guy. But in the end, what will be the
oddest part of this story is a guy that you wonder,
how did he know where this CEO was going to
be to arrive in New York days and days early,
be there waiting at what was at five point thirty
in the morning for this guy to come out and
(05:10):
head into this hotel for this gathering, and then he
just comes looming out of the darkness, all captured on
surveillance professionally. The gun jams he on jams that still
gets three shots off, kills him on the sidewalk, gently
crosses the street, picks up his pace, rents a bike,
(05:31):
takes the bike to Central Park, dumps the backpack. Then
he gets in a cab, goes to a bus station,
takes the bus. Next thing you know, he's eating chicken
nuggets and they're like, have you been in New York
In the last week and he goes, I mean, parts
of this guy was so professional and then parts were
so unprofessional, having the manifesto on him. One of the
(05:54):
last things he searched and read online was the unibomber's manifesto.
He still let the fake id on He's the murder
banon um and in the end it's twenty six year
old Luigi Mangione. Go figure. Meanwhile, the marine veteran charged
in the deadly New York City subway choke hold case
was found not guilty. Well, that leads to many, many
(06:15):
sounds of the day, and you can imagine.
Speaker 7 (06:21):
Aspire to stop it.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Get your mouth. Don't you ever let anybody take him hour?
Speaker 3 (06:26):
No, please, no, no. It is the motto keep come,
come along.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
You're gonna see from the beginning of our sounds of
the day to the end, there are some things America
has moved on to. And someone's trying to play an
old song that no one wants to dance to. Starting
with the BLM leader Hawk Newsom, after Daniel Penny is acquitted,
he calls for black vigilantes to get active. Following the acquittal.
Speaker 8 (06:55):
Listen, it's like everybody else has vigilantes we need some
black vigilantes.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
People want to jump up and choke us and kill
us for being loud.
Speaker 8 (07:13):
How about we do the same when they attempt to
oppress us. I'm tired. I know you're looking for us
to be like, oh, go in March, going March. No,
this weekend, I want you to hold a community event
everywhere from the Bronx to Houston.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
To Seattle to Florida, black.
Speaker 8 (07:36):
People, whole community event and.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Talk about what you need.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Now, isn't that odd? So in the end, it's really
not about the victim, nothing to do with him. You
hold these events, never mind, Jordan Neely. You hold these
events and tell people what you need. I don't think
vigilantiism is you don't like the outcome of a trial
(08:04):
you weren't a part of, and so you just start
going and telling people what you need or attacking innocent people.
You're a vigilante. If the police isn't doing its job,
which has been a problem since Black Lives Matter made
the case against police in America and for defunding the police,
and now crime is out of control. You're the cause,
(08:26):
not the solution. But Red, I don't know about you.
Did you notice they were all wearing New York Yankee hats.
You get the feeling they were really mad over Juan
Soto or is it just me? This is the father
of the victims.
Speaker 9 (08:41):
I missed my son. My son didn't have to go
through this. I didn't have to go through this either.
It hurts, really really hurts. What are we going to do? People?
Speaker 1 (08:58):
What's going to happen to us?
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Now?
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Had enough? It is, you know, And again it's just
a matter of playing these old narratives. And the problem
is it's not New America is not gullible and it's
not going to fall for it again. Oh so you
don't like the way this verdict in New York City went,
(09:25):
So you're gonna rob some stores and take some TV.
I mean, it's just nobody's ready to play that game.
You're gonna burn down a city, You're gonna take over
a swath of land. And of course it's not an
anti cop narrative because it wasn't a cop that did it.
I have said that Scott Jennings would have been the
(09:47):
perfect choice for White House Press secretary and may have
gone on to be the best White House spokesperson of
all time. But he's just too needed and his role
is too important to see at that now a lot
of people will shamelessly think I'm playing this clip the
way Jeffrey played that blocked punt just because he's making
(10:11):
all the points I made yesterday, and it validates the
intelligence of me the host that may or may not
be true.
Speaker 10 (10:20):
And I thought his overall interview, by the way, was
really good.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
The tone was good.
Speaker 10 (10:24):
He's clearly focused on the future, not on going back
into the past.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
That was a direct quote from him.
Speaker 10 (10:28):
He's focused on immigration, He's focused on bringing down prices,
and energy exploration and energy production in the United States.
These are all the priorities that he ran on. So
I think his projection of that about how his focus
and his attention is going to be spent was good.
On immigration specifically, I thought we got a very measured,
reasonable and realistic Donald Trump. He knows it's a problem
(10:50):
he's got to solve. He knows he needs to work
with Democrats, especially in the Senate, to get something done,
and he knows the American people are tired of inaction
on this, and so I thought he hit all the
right notes. I mean, he talked to Krista Walker for
over now or we only got to see a portion
of it.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
But I is it me or do we think he
listens to this show? I don't I get narcissistic about him,
but I was like, go back, listen to the podcast
every point. I mean, all right, I want to end
with Kamala Harris because this is just to quote the
old Lootie Tunes cartoon, Embarrassking. There's nobody thinking about Kamala Harris.
(11:27):
I'm not saying that to be provocative or partisan talk radio.
I mean, I don't think there's anybody anywhere thinking about
Kamala Harris. In fact, we little thought there is for
the Democrats right now is probably for Joe Biden, or
the fascination that Joe Biden seems to be already done
and Donald Trump is already acting president and he hasn't
(11:48):
even taken the second oath of office yet, and a
lot of Democrats are mad about We're going to talk
more about that with John Decker here coming up in minutes,
but no one's thinking about her. It's not like we're
holding back the swale of insurrection that there's half of
America so mad, so disappointed, so distraught, you don't even
(12:10):
hear from Hollywood stars they claim they were going to
leave the country if Donald Trump won. There's almost an inexplicable,
miraculous unity in America of hope and excitement for the future.
And yet Kamala is going to Christmas party after Christmas
party giving these speeches to try to hold people together
(12:31):
when she's the only one pulled apart.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
Put down.
Speaker 11 (12:37):
And nothing can just feet our purpose or in any
way damage our spirits.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
We are shot at that.
Speaker 11 (12:49):
And we cannot let any movies in any way just
stray up or shut up, promo strength and not be
blind as blessings.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
We have for goodness sake. Somebody stops serving her, cut
her off. Uh, that one was really bad audio. This
one you can hear a little bit better, but it's
it's the same tone, and it's the same condolences that
nobody seemingly needs.
Speaker 12 (13:21):
And continued, Yeah, and so please everyone, look, I know
the election is not what we intended and help certainly
not what we wanted. I know a lot of emotions
that we are all fould.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Have the joke of.
Speaker 11 (13:45):
But because I have to insist.
Speaker 12 (13:51):
That please do not let your tree your.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Versy it, yes, or we have good work to do.
Speaker 12 (13:57):
We are all in this together and everything done.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Yeah, everything you've done has mattered and had effect. All right.
Fortunately the American people saw through it and shows a
different direction. But isn't it kind of now It's like
it's beyond I don't even anybody's going to take the
bait to make fun of this. It's just like embarrassing.
What's said is the people in the background, not like
move on. Oh that's your Sounds of the day for
(14:28):
this Tuesday, December the tenth. You don't think she's Is
she going to Christmas parties today? And I'll have to
play a couple of clips tomorrow. I hope I'm not
all right and she's done is at home and you
are still vis president and go to your office. Stop
using we're all in this together. That's all free, tight,
(14:48):
but it's all free. It's your morning show with Michael
del Chorno to the talk back line. We go on
your iHeartRadio app. Let's start with Woodie and Kay.
Speaker 13 (15:00):
Why I in Phoenix, Michael, it's Woody and Pewarriers on
my comment back to the BLM activists in New York,
is you live like an idiot? It's possible You're gonna
die like an idiot.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
You know, if I was that father, I would be
as upset with DA's as I am with Daniel Penny
as I am with Black Lives Matter. Who I'm standing
there with Black Lives Matter leads the charge of defunding
the police. The Democrats go along with it. So I
crime so out of control in the New York City.
DA's are just revolving doors, letting them rite out back
(15:36):
on the streets. So why people like Daniel Penny have
to protect others? Other thing's laced with irony Patrick's listening
to w LAC in Nashville, HEYT Murphysboro.
Speaker 14 (15:49):
I think the McDonald's employee he was normally wearing a
red tie and was working in the fry machine. He
was working for a garbage truck company now, so he's
not going to take the reward, just like he doesn't
take his salary.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Can't remember that guy's name. Yeah, that would be the
only twist that would make sense. Turns out it's Donald
Trump that turns the guy in. Yeah, your CEO assassin
is a twenty six year old Luigi man Gioni. Big
John gets the final say from the sports book.
Speaker 7 (16:17):
So Daniel Penny is a hero. He protected people on
that train from a thug. Where was this kid's father
of the last forty two times he was arrested? And
the people protesting in the streets here, they're all wearing cofias.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
If something's wrong with that, anybody can get on the
radio and froth you up. These are the things I
was going to say, and I was waiting for you
to say him, and Big John just said him. He
wins the prize.
Speaker 15 (16:47):
Hi, I'm Andrea del Giorno and my husband and my
morning show is your morning show with Michael del Giorno.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Hi, I'm Michael, and your morning show has heard on
great radio stations across the country like one oh five,
nine twelve fifty w HNZ and Tampa, Florida, News Radio
five seventy WKBN at Youngstown, Ohio, and News Radio one
thousand KTOK in Oklahoma City. Love to have you listen
to us live in the morning. And of course we're
so grateful you came for the podcast, enjoying out for
(17:21):
a hung jury at best a hung jury, and then
they get not guilty. I mean, and you're right, you
would think if you're struggling with the more serious charge.
The lesser charge, you know, would have been if there
was no struggle leaning towards guilty, but it wasn't. It
was not guilty. It didn't take Black Lives Matter long
(17:42):
before it started calling people all over the country to
enter vigilanteism. It just feels to me, Rory, like that
whole narrative is over. It's right up there with Kamala
Harrison Christmas Party is telling us all not to give
up our hope. There's nobody really walking around with no
hope right now. Well, was there many people to listen
(18:02):
to this BLM story? I think it to become tired,
All right, let's move on. Yeah, because well, first of all,
wasn't a cop that did this? Number one? Number two?
Really the whole Black Lives Matter And then the narrative
that the Democrats used a lot in the convention in
twenty twenty of defunding the police might be presumably perceived
(18:26):
as the cause of this problem. So the cause can't
be the solution. And it all does seem very old
and eight years ago, four years ago at least, but
this also went to trial.
Speaker 16 (18:38):
I mean, there are plenty of people, you know, We've
got some congressman calling for an investigation of civil rights
abuses of Daniel Penny.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
For taking this case to trial at all.
Speaker 16 (18:48):
And they want the DA Bragg to face criminal charges
or or face some sort of charge for even bringing
this case at all.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
And I don't know. I mean, the fact though, that
this did go to trial.
Speaker 16 (19:00):
This wasn't some DA who made a decision not to prosecute.
And here you have you know, you have to respect
the system and say, oh no, here was the jury
that came out with its decision in a full open process.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
And that's what this is supposed to be about. Yeah,
there's so many I mean, it's all worthy of conversation.
I mean, it's a mayor's job first and foremost in
the municipality, and then I guess the city council along
with it, and then the police chief along with it
to provide safety for the people of its municipality. And
the subways have not been safe. That's a big part
(19:34):
of it. There's been this movement to defund police or
to make all bad guys seem like victims and all
the good guys the police seem like bad guys. And
you know, as well as anybody, we've documented how difficult
it is to get new recruits for a police department
in this kind of a cultural atmosphere. So I mean
there's and then the DA that keeps sending people out.
(19:55):
I mean, this particular individual, you know, was going around
punching elderly people. Had he been in Jailly be alive today,
I mean, it's all worthy of conversation. But yeah, go ahead.
Should Penny have been charged? Should this have gone to trial?
For me, shouldn't have been charged therefore would have never
(20:15):
gone to trial. But it did go to trial, and
everybody heard the case openly, the jury made its decision,
and I just don't think there should be any oxygen
or or audience for the narrative of all right, now
let's go create Mayhem, you know, and other communities. That
just doesn't make sense.
Speaker 16 (20:34):
That's why that's falling short, though, because again, it was
a full open process that we all got to see,
not just the eight second clip that we saw from
the cell phone video, you know, and the jury got
to hear everything that led up to that.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
So you were of the firm opinion that law enforcement
knew who the CEO assassin was, They just didn't know
where he was, and I kind of concluded, Look, whether
they do or they don't, everybody's seen his because he
kept lowering his mask, smiling, and you know somebody's going
to see him. It's exactly what happened. Ruby be back
with the full story in reaction to where we found
(21:09):
twenty six year old Luigi Mangioni. Of all places, it's
been the month, let alone the year of McDonald's. Roy,
you'll have more on that next hour for us. Good reporting. Rory,
all right, it's the forty one minutes after the off.
You're just tuning in. Obviously the top story of the day.
Luigi Mangioni, the suspect in the Manhattan murder of the
(21:29):
United Healthcare CEO, is facing a laundry list of charges,
as well as extradition to New York City. Sarah Lee
Kesler reports.
Speaker 17 (21:37):
He's been arranged in Altoona on forgery charges, tampering with identification,
giving false idea to police, carrying a firearm without a license,
and possessing a weapon that was the instrument of a crime.
Police say Mangioni was carrying a ghost gun and silencer
made by a three D printer and showed a fake
New Jersey license to cops when they questioned him at
(21:59):
a local McDonald. The twenty six year old Maryland men
will be extradited to New York to face a murder
charge in last Wednesday's assassination of Brian Thompson outside Midtown
Manhattan Hilton. I'm Sarah Lee Kessler.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
The parents of an American journalist who went missing in
Syria say their son is alive and they believe they'll
be reunited with him soon. Mark Mayfield has more we
have not received a proof of life.
Speaker 15 (22:24):
We have absolutely verifiable intel, good.
Speaker 18 (22:28):
He in an interview with NBC News, The apparents of
Austin Tye se they received intel prior to the fall
of the Syrian government that their son was alive and
well cared for. What they don't know is who's been
holding him. Austin Tye went missing in twenty twelve while
covering the Syrian Civil War. The State Department has said
it believes Tys was being held by the Syrian government
by Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
TikTok is asking for an emergency motion to stop a
law banning it from going into effect next month. Brian
Shook as the details.
Speaker 19 (22:56):
In a court filing Monday, Bite Dance said the temporary
paw would give the US Supreme Court time to review
the law. This comes after a judge rejected the China
based company's challenge to the law in a federal appeals court.
The law that would ban TikTok if it's not sold
to a new owner is set to go into effect
January nineteenth, one day before President elect Trump will be
(23:18):
sworn into office. Trump has signaled that he may try
to reverse the ban once he's back in power.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
I'm Brian Shook. Miriam Webster is unveiling its choice for
word of the year, Lisa Taylor reports.
Speaker 20 (23:35):
The dictionary publisher announced Monday that polarization is twenty twenty
four's defining word. Polarization is defined by Miriam Webster as
division into two sharply distinct opposites. Other words that made
the Dictionary's Words of the Year list include democracy, pander, weird,
and cognitive. Recently, Collins Dictionary named Bratt word of the Year,
(23:56):
while Oxford University Press selected brain.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I miss a tailor. I think it was an election here.
Every year, ninety million night lights are purchased in America,
and they're not all for children. Pre tennis with more
on a surprising number of adults who are afraid of
the dark.
Speaker 15 (24:17):
Study by light company Ecano Light shows fifty percent of
all adults have some fear of the dark and just
like children, and we compensate by using night lights. But
the Sleep Foundation says that white light can interfere with
your internal clock. It can cause an increase in heart
rate and even add to chronic illness. They say it's
okay to leave the light on, but make sure it's
(24:38):
not white. It needs to be red or amber. Those
colors are warm and soothing and support the best sleep.
I'm pre tennis.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Turn off your night lights in the middle of the.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
Young boys dreams.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Don't wake me up too soon. I you know, obviously,
injuries can turn any one season south. This is just
this the for me. This is the most disappointing year
for the Dallas Cowboys in a long, long time. Now,
(25:15):
you know, injury at the quarterback positions played a big part,
but there's other problems. Cowboys fall to five and eight
last night, losing at home twenty seven to twenty to
the Bengals. Ducks lost in overtime in a shootout three
two to the Canadians, but they get a point. Birthdays.
What was it three hundred and over three, three hundred
and sixty nine yards and three touchdowns last night for
(25:37):
Joe Burrow. Today is twenty eighth birthday chef Bobby Flay
sixty years old and from the Partridge family, you either
had a crush on Marsha Marsha Marsha or Susan Day
seventy two years old today And if it's your birthday,
Happy birthday. We are so glad you were born. And
thanks for making your morning show a part of your
big day. This is your show with Michael Deltono. I
(26:02):
am Michael del Jono. This is your morning show. Jeffrey
at the controls producer read is here. Here are your
headlines CNN. We knew that was our guy. That's what
the arresting officer said. When they arrived at the scene
of a McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania. They asked Luigi Mangioni
to lower his face mask. This guy obviously takes COVID
(26:23):
still very seriously. Oh he's an assassin. Uh. You know
The irony of this story is everything on camera looked
so professional. He just comes out of the darkness, assassinates
the CEO. How did he know where he was going
to be? To be lying in? Wait? What was his motive?
(26:45):
Shoots some gun jams, he undoes the jam, you know,
so he looked very skilled. Then just quietly crosses the street,
picks up the pace, takes a bike, goes to Central Park,
dumps the backpack. We presume somewhere in that lake is
the murder weapon. Then he takes a taxi to a
(27:07):
bus station, a bus station out of town that looked
like a professional hit. Right. No, it's a rich kid
from Maryland who went to a thirty five thousand dollars
a year junior high school and forty thousand dollars year
high school. He was the val victorian, went to Ivy League.
And when he's finally eating his chicken McNuggets at a McDonald's,
(27:30):
he still got the fake ID from New Jersey in
his possession. He still has the murder weapon in his possession.
And then to seal the deal, a three page manifesto,
I mean, from skilled assassin like Stanley Tucci in a
movie to just a typical goofball in forty eight hours
or dayline. What a crazy, crazy story and What a
(27:55):
crazy year for McDonald's. Really crazy six weeks for McDonald's
from me cole I to Donald Trump serving fly fries,
which kind of swung the entire election really in those
final days to now Luigi Mangione eating his chicken nuggets
at nine am and the McDonald's. By the way, we
(28:16):
had a live talkback from battle our morning show host
at our rock station in Nashville. This is also the
year where the government got involved because there was a
monopoly where one company only could service the ice cream
machines at McDonald's. The government got involved and changed that.
And because I'm usually on that website where you got
to you know, they have a website dedicated to where
(28:37):
the machines are down and where they're operational. That's real wow,
But I realized did that breakthrough? Very interesting year for
McDonald's to say the least, All right, John Deckers here
a new report says Joe Biden is seeding the presidential
influence to Donald Trump and some Democrats are absolutely furious. Well, John,
is this another one.
Speaker 3 (28:57):
Where I gave you the idea yesterday? Because I feel
like we've had this conference.
Speaker 6 (29:00):
He's really we've had this conversation. We've had this conversation, Michael,
over the past few weeks really about how Joe Biden
has disappeared. And I don't think anything was more apparent
than this past weekend when it was Donald Trump who
was in Paris at the reopening of the Notre Dame Cathedral,
not Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Joe Biden actually.
Speaker 6 (29:20):
Extended an invitation. He declined that invitation from French President
Emmanuel Macron to attend that reopening. And that's just one
example of many of Joe Biden essentially disappearing, leaving the scene,
and seating a perceived presidential power to President elect Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
All right, well, we talked about that yesterday. Because this
is a unique presidency. Donald Trump was president loses by
ten million votes, a ten million votes. That has never
happened before or since.
Speaker 6 (29:49):
I don't think the numbers ten million.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
By the way, you'd have to double check that, but
I don't need Yeah, it was eighty one eighty one million,
compared to.
Speaker 6 (29:56):
Double check, double check that double checks that. I'm pretty
sure that that's not accurate.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
But in any case, read.
Speaker 7 (30:04):
Do you remember it's down to about seven million, I
think six or seven.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
Well, seven million more than before. But yeah, I said
eighty one million was a total. Anyway, make a long
story short. It's a different presidency, and so you've got
a former president coming back after for it. But it's
different than that. For a lot of people. This is
a question, John, not an implication. For a lot of people,
that question whether or not Joe Biden was really calling
the shots for the last four years, which I think
(30:29):
to some degree is true and to some degree is not.
He didn't play the complete day game. He refused to
leave for the longest time. Maybe it's just a matter
of he was never really doing that much and now
nobody feels the need to prop up the appearance. Could
it be that or will it be remembered as that?
Speaker 6 (30:46):
You know what I had to tell you because I
cover him, and I've covered him over the course of
his presidency. I covered him all eight years when his
vice president, I covered him when he was in the
US said he has large and Michael checked out. I mean,
that's really a parent. He had two public events this week.
One was yesterday at the Department of the Interior. The
other is today at the Brookings Institution of Think Tank
(31:09):
here in Washington.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
D c that's it.
Speaker 6 (31:11):
That's on his entire schedule for this entire week. That
is not indicative of a person who really is one
hundred percent into his job.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
All right, But here's a guy whose life aspiration, you
would agree, I think, was to be president of the
United States. Yeah, I mean, so he finally gets it
in the oddest of ways. Fourth and Iowa, seventh in
New Hampshire. They cut a deal in South Carolina, hied
him in a basement during COVID, and he finally becomes president.
It may have been their plan to usher him out
and usher Kamala in. It was a marriage of the
(31:41):
Obama and Clinton apparatusus because that was the Clinton candidate
and Kamala Harris and that was the Obama candidate. By
way of association, both come together with John Podesta. But
he made something clear. We waited sixty four days for
his first news conference, and in that news conference he
handed the border to Kamala Harris to deal with, which
(32:02):
was kind of like a poison apple. That showed me
Joe Biden wasn't going to play the Dave game reference
to the movie where you're just pretending to be president.
He wanted to be president, and sure he wasn't at
his tip top mental condition when it finally happened. Then
they kind of forced him out. This is a discruntled guy.
I mean, no wonder he's checked out early.
Speaker 4 (32:22):
I guess.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
The other interesting part is the way everybody's just kind
of moved on to Trump and he's just assumed the
helm and he hasn't even taken the inauguration speech and
an oath yet. Well.
Speaker 6 (32:33):
Trump's certainly making a lot of news, you know, in
the transition period, with all of the announcements surrounding his
cabinet and that trip that he made, which is an
unusual trip to Paris, France over the weekend. I can't
get inside of Joe Biden's head. I wouldn't try to
do that, but you know, look, I can look at
his schedule and I can talk about that. I can
(32:54):
tell you about his appearances that he's had, the number
of press availabilities that he's had. And this is a
person who, quite frankly, has essentially disappeared. And you know,
I think that for some Democrats, not all of them,
but for some Democrats, January twentieth can't come soon enough,
just because Joe Biden has seeded the spotlight.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
To Donald Trump. We went from a narrative in a
presidential election year of peaceful transferral of power to premature
transferral of power. I mean, everybody thinks that Donald's had
a crazy year, John, We've all had a crazy year.
Speaker 6 (33:32):
Yeah, we've had a crazy year.
Speaker 3 (33:34):
But this is just the beginning.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
I'm sure twenty.
Speaker 6 (33:36):
Twenty five, I'm gonna have a lot in for us
to talk about.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
Michael, whatever it is, Yeah, whatever it is, we're going
to go through it together. Thank god you're here. John Decker,
White House Correspondent, great reporting. We're all in this together.
This is your Morning Show with Michael nhild join no
Hi, It's Michael. Your morning show can be heard on
great radio stations across the country like News Talk ninety
two point one and six hundred WREC in Memphis, Tennessee,
or thirteen hundred The Patriot and Tulsa our Talk six
fifty KSTE in Sacramento, California. We invite you to listen
live while you're getting ready in the morning, and to
take us along for the drive to work. But as
we always say, better late than never. Thanks for joining
(00:21):
us for the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Well two three, starting your morning off right, A new
way of talk, a new way of understanding because we're
in the stage. This is your morning show with Michael
gil Jordan.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
That is the voice of Mike McCann. Used to work
for WQUE in New Orleans. I grew up listening to him.
Proud to have him as the voice of your morning show.
Seven minutes after the hour. Thanks for working up with this.
I am Michael del Jorno and welcome to Tuesday, December,
the tenth of Our Lord twenty twenty four. By the way,
can I just get a quick tip here while we're
having a bad show? For sure, if you're calling to
(01:01):
make a legitimate comment or ask a legitimate question. It
is not necessary to end your comment with and my
morning show it your more. That's something completely separate you
may or may not want to do. That's just your
way of introducing yourself to everyone else at the breakfast
table this morning. But because we may be coast to coasts,
(01:21):
but we're really a small family, a small family of patriotic, loving,
godly Americans just trying to understand the day. But I
do appreciate the effort. Yes, the effort's fine. Are we
playing these right now? Am I? Moving on to sounds
of them? You can do whatever you want to do?
Can we confirm that there really is a bull Is
it bullfrog? Bullfrog Mississippi? Believe is what she said? Were
(01:44):
you able to find it?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Red?
Speaker 1 (01:46):
What is read out? He doesn't look. I think there
is a bullfrog corner?
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Bullfrog corner right?
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Because you know I love the movie, Uh, Doc, Hollywood,
would you love to go living a place like Grady Be?
There be at the Squash Capital when they're having their
summer squash festival. You remember when he walks by the
little theater and they're all watching the Silent Movie, laughing great,
And then when he's in Los Angeles and he's missing Grady.
(02:16):
He calls up and gets the time and temperature, and
the woman giving the time of temperature sounded just like this.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Hey should This is sharing from Bullfrog Corner, Mississippi, and
My Morning show is your Morning Show with Michael Dale Johno.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Call from Grady. There's more. What else do we have?
Obviously she's listening to Jackson Mississippi. We have Kate ste.
This is the dog gone one seventy seconds.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Bob in Georgia.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
I'm kind of curious on the McDonald's employee. Is somebody
going to give him a reward? Maybe McDonald's for all
the free publicity they're going to receive over the next week.
Your morning show is My Morning You don't.
Speaker 6 (02:59):
Have to do that.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Why a guy in Georgia is listening to kste and Sacramento.
That's all very confusing. But to answer your question, they
ought to write we were talking about this earlier. Now
it's a pretty recognizable face. It's not like, you know,
it's not like Luigi just only showed us his eyes
though he did, you know, he lowered his mask and
showed his face to the girl he was flirting with
(03:22):
at the hostel he showed his face at the Starbucks
and then we got him really good in the taxicab.
I don't know as much as and I said this
to Red off the air. I don't know if they
knew who he was, but they couldn't find him. But
I can tell you this, everybody's looking at his face.
Someone's going to see him somewhere. And that's exactly the
(03:44):
way it went down. Literally like what ninety minutes later,
So he's in an Altoona McDonald's sitting there eating chicken McNuggets,
and the worker who served him felt pretty good that
that's the face I've been seeing on TV. So he
called local law enforcement. Two police officers arived. They said
later in a news conference, we pretty much knew we
had our guy immediately. Now. It was confirmed, because no
(04:07):
matter how long they were combing the lake at Central Park,
the murder weapon was still on him, as was a
three page manifesto against high profits of CEOs at major corporations,
as was the very same New Jersey fake ID with
(04:28):
name and picture that he used at the hostel in
New York. So they got their guy, and it turns
out a twenty six year old Luigi Mangione. He's from
a well to do family outside of Maryland. We went
to private school there. Gilman School is what we say
for junior high thirty five grand a year, just under
forty grand for high school a year he was the valedictorian.
(04:49):
He went to an Ivy League college. Is a very
intelligent guy. But in the end, what will be the
oddest part of this story is a guy that you wonder,
how did he know where this CEO was going to
be to arrive in New York days and days early,
be there waiting at what was at five point thirty
in the morning for this guy to come out and
(05:10):
head into this hotel for this gathering, and then he
just comes looming out of the darkness, all captured on
surveillance professionally. The gun jams he on jams that still
gets three shots off, kills him on the sidewalk, gently
crosses the street, picks up his pace, rents a bike,
(05:31):
takes the bike to Central Park, dumps the backpack. Then
he gets in a cab, goes to a bus station,
takes the bus. Next thing you know, he's eating chicken
nuggets and they're like, have you been in New York
In the last week and he goes, I mean, parts
of this guy was so professional and then parts were
so unprofessional, having the manifesto on him. One of the
(05:54):
last things he searched and read online was the unibomber's manifesto.
He still let the fake id on He's the murder
banon um and in the end it's twenty six year
old Luigi Mangione. Go figure. Meanwhile, the marine veteran charged
in the deadly New York City subway choke hold case
was found not guilty. Well, that leads to many, many
(06:15):
sounds of the day, and you can imagine.
Speaker 7 (06:21):
Aspire to stop it.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Get your mouth. Don't you ever let anybody take him hour?
Speaker 3 (06:26):
No, please, no, no. It is the motto keep come,
come along.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
You're gonna see from the beginning of our sounds of
the day to the end, there are some things America
has moved on to. And someone's trying to play an
old song that no one wants to dance to. Starting
with the BLM leader Hawk Newsom, after Daniel Penny is acquitted,
he calls for black vigilantes to get active. Following the acquittal.
Speaker 8 (06:55):
Listen, it's like everybody else has vigilantes we need some
black vigilantes.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
People want to jump up and choke us and kill
us for being loud.
Speaker 8 (07:13):
How about we do the same when they attempt to
oppress us. I'm tired. I know you're looking for us
to be like, oh, go in March, going March. No,
this weekend, I want you to hold a community event
everywhere from the Bronx to Houston.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
To Seattle to Florida, black.
Speaker 8 (07:36):
People, whole community event and.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Talk about what you need.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Now, isn't that odd? So in the end, it's really
not about the victim, nothing to do with him. You
hold these events, never mind, Jordan Neely. You hold these
events and tell people what you need. I don't think
vigilantiism is you don't like the outcome of a trial
(08:04):
you weren't a part of, and so you just start
going and telling people what you need or attacking innocent people.
You're a vigilante. If the police isn't doing its job,
which has been a problem since Black Lives Matter made
the case against police in America and for defunding the police,
and now crime is out of control. You're the cause,
(08:26):
not the solution. But Red, I don't know about you.
Did you notice they were all wearing New York Yankee hats.
You get the feeling they were really mad over Juan
Soto or is it just me? This is the father
of the victims.
Speaker 9 (08:41):
I missed my son. My son didn't have to go
through this. I didn't have to go through this either.
It hurts, really really hurts. What are we going to do? People?
Speaker 1 (08:58):
What's going to happen to us?
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Now?
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Had enough? It is, you know, And again it's just
a matter of playing these old narratives. And the problem
is it's not New America is not gullible and it's
not going to fall for it again. Oh so you
don't like the way this verdict in New York City went,
(09:25):
So you're gonna rob some stores and take some TV.
I mean, it's just nobody's ready to play that game.
You're gonna burn down a city, You're gonna take over
a swath of land. And of course it's not an
anti cop narrative because it wasn't a cop that did it.
I have said that Scott Jennings would have been the
(09:47):
perfect choice for White House Press secretary and may have
gone on to be the best White House spokesperson of
all time. But he's just too needed and his role
is too important to see at that now a lot
of people will shamelessly think I'm playing this clip the
way Jeffrey played that blocked punt just because he's making
(10:11):
all the points I made yesterday, and it validates the
intelligence of me the host that may or may not
be true.
Speaker 10 (10:20):
And I thought his overall interview, by the way, was
really good.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
The tone was good.
Speaker 10 (10:24):
He's clearly focused on the future, not on going back
into the past.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
That was a direct quote from him.
Speaker 10 (10:28):
He's focused on immigration, He's focused on bringing down prices,
and energy exploration and energy production in the United States.
These are all the priorities that he ran on. So
I think his projection of that about how his focus
and his attention is going to be spent was good.
On immigration specifically, I thought we got a very measured,
reasonable and realistic Donald Trump. He knows it's a problem
(10:50):
he's got to solve. He knows he needs to work
with Democrats, especially in the Senate, to get something done,
and he knows the American people are tired of inaction
on this, and so I thought he hit all the
right notes. I mean, he talked to Krista Walker for
over now or we only got to see a portion
of it.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
But I is it me or do we think he
listens to this show? I don't I get narcissistic about him,
but I was like, go back, listen to the podcast
every point. I mean, all right, I want to end
with Kamala Harris because this is just to quote the
old Lootie Tunes cartoon, Embarrassking. There's nobody thinking about Kamala Harris.
(11:27):
I'm not saying that to be provocative or partisan talk radio.
I mean, I don't think there's anybody anywhere thinking about
Kamala Harris. In fact, we little thought there is for
the Democrats right now is probably for Joe Biden, or
the fascination that Joe Biden seems to be already done
and Donald Trump is already acting president and he hasn't
(11:48):
even taken the second oath of office yet, and a
lot of Democrats are mad about We're going to talk
more about that with John Decker here coming up in minutes,
but no one's thinking about her. It's not like we're
holding back the swale of insurrection that there's half of
America so mad, so disappointed, so distraught, you don't even
(12:10):
hear from Hollywood stars they claim they were going to
leave the country if Donald Trump won. There's almost an inexplicable,
miraculous unity in America of hope and excitement for the future.
And yet Kamala is going to Christmas party after Christmas
party giving these speeches to try to hold people together
(12:31):
when she's the only one pulled apart.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
Put down.
Speaker 11 (12:37):
And nothing can just feet our purpose or in any
way damage our spirits.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
We are shot at that.
Speaker 11 (12:49):
And we cannot let any movies in any way just
stray up or shut up, promo strength and not be
blind as blessings.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
We have for goodness sake. Somebody stops serving her, cut
her off. Uh, that one was really bad audio. This
one you can hear a little bit better, but it's
it's the same tone, and it's the same condolences that
nobody seemingly needs.
Speaker 12 (13:21):
And continued, Yeah, and so please everyone, look, I know
the election is not what we intended and help certainly
not what we wanted. I know a lot of emotions
that we are all fould.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Have the joke of.
Speaker 11 (13:45):
But because I have to insist.
Speaker 12 (13:51):
That please do not let your tree your.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Versy it, yes, or we have good work to do.
Speaker 12 (13:57):
We are all in this together and everything done.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Yeah, everything you've done has mattered and had effect. All right.
Fortunately the American people saw through it and shows a
different direction. But isn't it kind of now It's like
it's beyond I don't even anybody's going to take the
bait to make fun of this. It's just like embarrassing.
What's said is the people in the background, not like
move on. Oh that's your Sounds of the day for
(14:28):
this Tuesday, December the tenth. You don't think she's Is
she going to Christmas parties today? And I'll have to
play a couple of clips tomorrow. I hope I'm not
all right and she's done is at home and you
are still vis president and go to your office. Stop
using we're all in this together. That's all free, tight,
(14:48):
but it's all free. It's your morning show with Michael
del Chorno to the talk back line. We go on
your iHeartRadio app. Let's start with Woodie and Kay.
Speaker 13 (15:00):
Why I in Phoenix, Michael, it's Woody and Pewarriers on
my comment back to the BLM activists in New York,
is you live like an idiot? It's possible You're gonna
die like an idiot.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
You know, if I was that father, I would be
as upset with DA's as I am with Daniel Penny
as I am with Black Lives Matter. Who I'm standing
there with Black Lives Matter leads the charge of defunding
the police. The Democrats go along with it. So I
crime so out of control in the New York City.
DA's are just revolving doors, letting them rite out back
(15:36):
on the streets. So why people like Daniel Penny have
to protect others? Other thing's laced with irony Patrick's listening
to w LAC in Nashville, HEYT Murphysboro.
Speaker 14 (15:49):
I think the McDonald's employee he was normally wearing a
red tie and was working in the fry machine. He
was working for a garbage truck company now, so he's
not going to take the reward, just like he doesn't
take his salary.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Can't remember that guy's name. Yeah, that would be the
only twist that would make sense. Turns out it's Donald
Trump that turns the guy in. Yeah, your CEO assassin
is a twenty six year old Luigi man Gioni. Big
John gets the final say from the sports book.
Speaker 7 (16:17):
So Daniel Penny is a hero. He protected people on
that train from a thug. Where was this kid's father
of the last forty two times he was arrested? And
the people protesting in the streets here, they're all wearing cofias.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
If something's wrong with that, anybody can get on the
radio and froth you up. These are the things I
was going to say, and I was waiting for you
to say him, and Big John just said him. He
wins the prize.
Speaker 15 (16:47):
Hi, I'm Andrea del Giorno and my husband and my
morning show is your morning show with Michael del Giorno.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Hi, I'm Michael, and your morning show has heard on
great radio stations across the country like one oh five,
nine twelve fifty w HNZ and Tampa, Florida, News Radio
five seventy WKBN at Youngstown, Ohio, and News Radio one
thousand KTOK in Oklahoma City. Love to have you listen
to us live in the morning. And of course we're
so grateful you came for the podcast, enjoying out for
(17:21):
a hung jury at best a hung jury, and then
they get not guilty. I mean, and you're right, you
would think if you're struggling with the more serious charge.
The lesser charge, you know, would have been if there
was no struggle leaning towards guilty, but it wasn't. It
was not guilty. It didn't take Black Lives Matter long
(17:42):
before it started calling people all over the country to
enter vigilanteism. It just feels to me, Rory, like that
whole narrative is over. It's right up there with Kamala
Harrison Christmas Party is telling us all not to give
up our hope. There's nobody really walking around with no
hope right now. Well, was there many people to listen
(18:02):
to this BLM story? I think it to become tired,
All right, let's move on. Yeah, because well, first of all,
wasn't a cop that did this? Number one? Number two?
Really the whole Black Lives Matter And then the narrative
that the Democrats used a lot in the convention in
twenty twenty of defunding the police might be presumably perceived
(18:26):
as the cause of this problem. So the cause can't
be the solution. And it all does seem very old
and eight years ago, four years ago at least, but
this also went to trial.
Speaker 16 (18:38):
I mean, there are plenty of people, you know, We've
got some congressman calling for an investigation of civil rights
abuses of Daniel Penny.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
For taking this case to trial at all.
Speaker 16 (18:48):
And they want the DA Bragg to face criminal charges
or or face some sort of charge for even bringing
this case at all.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
And I don't know. I mean, the fact though, that
this did go to trial.
Speaker 16 (19:00):
This wasn't some DA who made a decision not to prosecute.
And here you have you know, you have to respect
the system and say, oh no, here was the jury
that came out with its decision in a full open process.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
And that's what this is supposed to be about. Yeah,
there's so many I mean, it's all worthy of conversation.
I mean, it's a mayor's job first and foremost in
the municipality, and then I guess the city council along
with it, and then the police chief along with it
to provide safety for the people of its municipality. And
the subways have not been safe. That's a big part
(19:34):
of it. There's been this movement to defund police or
to make all bad guys seem like victims and all
the good guys the police seem like bad guys. And
you know, as well as anybody, we've documented how difficult
it is to get new recruits for a police department
in this kind of a cultural atmosphere. So I mean
there's and then the DA that keeps sending people out.
(19:55):
I mean, this particular individual, you know, was going around
punching elderly people. Had he been in Jailly be alive today,
I mean, it's all worthy of conversation. But yeah, go ahead.
Should Penny have been charged? Should this have gone to trial?
For me, shouldn't have been charged therefore would have never
(20:15):
gone to trial. But it did go to trial, and
everybody heard the case openly, the jury made its decision,
and I just don't think there should be any oxygen
or or audience for the narrative of all right, now
let's go create Mayhem, you know, and other communities. That
just doesn't make sense.
Speaker 16 (20:34):
That's why that's falling short, though, because again, it was
a full open process that we all got to see,
not just the eight second clip that we saw from
the cell phone video, you know, and the jury got
to hear everything that led up to that.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
So you were of the firm opinion that law enforcement
knew who the CEO assassin was, They just didn't know
where he was, and I kind of concluded, Look, whether
they do or they don't, everybody's seen his because he
kept lowering his mask, smiling, and you know somebody's going
to see him. It's exactly what happened. Ruby be back
with the full story in reaction to where we found
(21:09):
twenty six year old Luigi Mangioni. Of all places, it's
been the month, let alone the year of McDonald's. Roy,
you'll have more on that next hour for us. Good reporting. Rory,
all right, it's the forty one minutes after the off.
You're just tuning in. Obviously the top story of the day.
Luigi Mangioni, the suspect in the Manhattan murder of the
(21:29):
United Healthcare CEO, is facing a laundry list of charges,
as well as extradition to New York City. Sarah Lee
Kesler reports.
Speaker 17 (21:37):
He's been arranged in Altoona on forgery charges, tampering with identification,
giving false idea to police, carrying a firearm without a license,
and possessing a weapon that was the instrument of a crime.
Police say Mangioni was carrying a ghost gun and silencer
made by a three D printer and showed a fake
New Jersey license to cops when they questioned him at
(21:59):
a local McDonald. The twenty six year old Maryland men
will be extradited to New York to face a murder
charge in last Wednesday's assassination of Brian Thompson outside Midtown
Manhattan Hilton. I'm Sarah Lee Kessler.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
The parents of an American journalist who went missing in
Syria say their son is alive and they believe they'll
be reunited with him soon. Mark Mayfield has more we
have not received a proof of life.
Speaker 15 (22:24):
We have absolutely verifiable intel, good.
Speaker 18 (22:28):
He in an interview with NBC News, The apparents of
Austin Tye se they received intel prior to the fall
of the Syrian government that their son was alive and
well cared for. What they don't know is who's been
holding him. Austin Tye went missing in twenty twelve while
covering the Syrian Civil War. The State Department has said
it believes Tys was being held by the Syrian government
by Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
TikTok is asking for an emergency motion to stop a
law banning it from going into effect next month. Brian
Shook as the details.
Speaker 19 (22:56):
In a court filing Monday, Bite Dance said the temporary
paw would give the US Supreme Court time to review
the law. This comes after a judge rejected the China
based company's challenge to the law in a federal appeals court.
The law that would ban TikTok if it's not sold
to a new owner is set to go into effect
January nineteenth, one day before President elect Trump will be
(23:18):
sworn into office. Trump has signaled that he may try
to reverse the ban once he's back in power.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
I'm Brian Shook. Miriam Webster is unveiling its choice for
word of the year, Lisa Taylor reports.
Speaker 20 (23:35):
The dictionary publisher announced Monday that polarization is twenty twenty
four's defining word. Polarization is defined by Miriam Webster as
division into two sharply distinct opposites. Other words that made
the Dictionary's Words of the Year list include democracy, pander, weird,
and cognitive. Recently, Collins Dictionary named Bratt word of the Year,
(23:56):
while Oxford University Press selected brain.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I miss a tailor. I think it was an election here.
Every year, ninety million night lights are purchased in America,
and they're not all for children. Pre tennis with more
on a surprising number of adults who are afraid of
the dark.
Speaker 15 (24:17):
Study by light company Ecano Light shows fifty percent of
all adults have some fear of the dark and just
like children, and we compensate by using night lights. But
the Sleep Foundation says that white light can interfere with
your internal clock. It can cause an increase in heart
rate and even add to chronic illness. They say it's
okay to leave the light on, but make sure it's
(24:38):
not white. It needs to be red or amber. Those
colors are warm and soothing and support the best sleep.
I'm pre tennis.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Turn off your night lights in the middle of the.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
Young boys dreams.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Don't wake me up too soon. I you know, obviously,
injuries can turn any one season south. This is just
this the for me. This is the most disappointing year
for the Dallas Cowboys in a long, long time. Now,
(25:15):
you know, injury at the quarterback positions played a big part,
but there's other problems. Cowboys fall to five and eight
last night, losing at home twenty seven to twenty to
the Bengals. Ducks lost in overtime in a shootout three
two to the Canadians, but they get a point. Birthdays.
What was it three hundred and over three, three hundred
and sixty nine yards and three touchdowns last night for
(25:37):
Joe Burrow. Today is twenty eighth birthday chef Bobby Flay
sixty years old and from the Partridge family, you either
had a crush on Marsha Marsha Marsha or Susan Day
seventy two years old today And if it's your birthday,
Happy birthday. We are so glad you were born. And
thanks for making your morning show a part of your
big day. This is your show with Michael Deltono. I
(26:02):
am Michael del Jono. This is your morning show. Jeffrey
at the controls producer read is here. Here are your
headlines CNN. We knew that was our guy. That's what
the arresting officer said. When they arrived at the scene
of a McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania. They asked Luigi Mangioni
to lower his face mask. This guy obviously takes COVID
(26:23):
still very seriously. Oh he's an assassin. Uh. You know
The irony of this story is everything on camera looked
so professional. He just comes out of the darkness, assassinates
the CEO. How did he know where he was going
to be? To be lying in? Wait? What was his motive?
(26:45):
Shoots some gun jams, he undoes the jam, you know,
so he looked very skilled. Then just quietly crosses the street,
picks up the pace, takes a bike, goes to Central Park,
dumps the backpack. We presume somewhere in that lake is
the murder weapon. Then he takes a taxi to a
(27:07):
bus station, a bus station out of town that looked
like a professional hit. Right. No, it's a rich kid
from Maryland who went to a thirty five thousand dollars
a year junior high school and forty thousand dollars year
high school. He was the val victorian, went to Ivy League.
And when he's finally eating his chicken McNuggets at a McDonald's,
(27:30):
he still got the fake ID from New Jersey in
his possession. He still has the murder weapon in his possession.
And then to seal the deal, a three page manifesto,
I mean, from skilled assassin like Stanley Tucci in a
movie to just a typical goofball in forty eight hours
or dayline. What a crazy, crazy story and What a
(27:55):
crazy year for McDonald's. Really crazy six weeks for McDonald's
from me cole I to Donald Trump serving fly fries,
which kind of swung the entire election really in those
final days to now Luigi Mangione eating his chicken nuggets
at nine am and the McDonald's. By the way, we
(28:16):
had a live talkback from battle our morning show host
at our rock station in Nashville. This is also the
year where the government got involved because there was a
monopoly where one company only could service the ice cream
machines at McDonald's. The government got involved and changed that.
And because I'm usually on that website where you got
to you know, they have a website dedicated to where
(28:37):
the machines are down and where they're operational. That's real wow,
But I realized did that breakthrough? Very interesting year for
McDonald's to say the least, All right, John Deckers here
a new report says Joe Biden is seeding the presidential
influence to Donald Trump and some Democrats are absolutely furious. Well, John,
is this another one.
Speaker 3 (28:57):
Where I gave you the idea yesterday? Because I feel
like we've had this conference.
Speaker 6 (29:00):
He's really we've had this conversation. We've had this conversation, Michael,
over the past few weeks really about how Joe Biden
has disappeared. And I don't think anything was more apparent
than this past weekend when it was Donald Trump who
was in Paris at the reopening of the Notre Dame Cathedral,
not Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Joe Biden actually.
Speaker 6 (29:20):
Extended an invitation. He declined that invitation from French President
Emmanuel Macron to attend that reopening. And that's just one
example of many of Joe Biden essentially disappearing, leaving the scene,
and seating a perceived presidential power to President elect Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
All right, well, we talked about that yesterday. Because this
is a unique presidency. Donald Trump was president loses by
ten million votes, a ten million votes. That has never
happened before or since.
Speaker 6 (29:49):
I don't think the numbers ten million.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
By the way, you'd have to double check that, but
I don't need Yeah, it was eighty one eighty one million,
compared to.
Speaker 6 (29:56):
Double check, double check that double checks that. I'm pretty
sure that that's not accurate.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
But in any case, read.
Speaker 7 (30:04):
Do you remember it's down to about seven million, I
think six or seven.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
Well, seven million more than before. But yeah, I said
eighty one million was a total. Anyway, make a long
story short. It's a different presidency, and so you've got
a former president coming back after for it. But it's
different than that. For a lot of people. This is
a question, John, not an implication. For a lot of people,
that question whether or not Joe Biden was really calling
the shots for the last four years, which I think
(30:29):
to some degree is true and to some degree is not.
He didn't play the complete day game. He refused to
leave for the longest time. Maybe it's just a matter
of he was never really doing that much and now
nobody feels the need to prop up the appearance. Could
it be that or will it be remembered as that?
Speaker 6 (30:46):
You know what I had to tell you because I
cover him, and I've covered him over the course of
his presidency. I covered him all eight years when his
vice president, I covered him when he was in the
US said he has large and Michael checked out. I mean,
that's really a parent. He had two public events this week.
One was yesterday at the Department of the Interior. The
other is today at the Brookings Institution of Think Tank
(31:09):
here in Washington.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
D c that's it.
Speaker 6 (31:11):
That's on his entire schedule for this entire week. That
is not indicative of a person who really is one
hundred percent into his job.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
All right, But here's a guy whose life aspiration, you
would agree, I think, was to be president of the
United States. Yeah, I mean, so he finally gets it
in the oddest of ways. Fourth and Iowa, seventh in
New Hampshire. They cut a deal in South Carolina, hied
him in a basement during COVID, and he finally becomes president.
It may have been their plan to usher him out
and usher Kamala in. It was a marriage of the
(31:41):
Obama and Clinton apparatusus because that was the Clinton candidate
and Kamala Harris and that was the Obama candidate. By
way of association, both come together with John Podesta. But
he made something clear. We waited sixty four days for
his first news conference, and in that news conference he
handed the border to Kamala Harris to deal with, which
(32:02):
was kind of like a poison apple. That showed me
Joe Biden wasn't going to play the Dave game reference
to the movie where you're just pretending to be president.
He wanted to be president, and sure he wasn't at
his tip top mental condition when it finally happened. Then
they kind of forced him out. This is a discruntled guy.
I mean, no wonder he's checked out early.
Speaker 4 (32:22):
I guess.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
The other interesting part is the way everybody's just kind
of moved on to Trump and he's just assumed the
helm and he hasn't even taken the inauguration speech and
an oath yet. Well.
Speaker 6 (32:33):
Trump's certainly making a lot of news, you know, in
the transition period, with all of the announcements surrounding his
cabinet and that trip that he made, which is an
unusual trip to Paris, France over the weekend. I can't
get inside of Joe Biden's head. I wouldn't try to
do that, but you know, look, I can look at
his schedule and I can talk about that. I can
(32:54):
tell you about his appearances that he's had, the number
of press availabilities that he's had. And this is a
person who, quite frankly, has essentially disappeared. And you know,
I think that for some Democrats, not all of them,
but for some Democrats, January twentieth can't come soon enough,
just because Joe Biden has seeded the spotlight.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
To Donald Trump. We went from a narrative in a
presidential election year of peaceful transferral of power to premature
transferral of power. I mean, everybody thinks that Donald's had
a crazy year, John, We've all had a crazy year.
Speaker 6 (33:32):
Yeah, we've had a crazy year.
Speaker 3 (33:34):
But this is just the beginning.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
I'm sure twenty.
Speaker 6 (33:36):
Twenty five, I'm gonna have a lot in for us
to talk about.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
Michael, whatever it is, Yeah, whatever it is, we're going
to go through it together. Thank god you're here. John Decker,
White House Correspondent, great reporting. We're all in this together.
