Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, I'm Michael, and your morning show is heard on
great radio stations across the country like one oh five,
nine twelve fifty w HNZ and Tampa, Florida, News Radio
five seventy wkb N and 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.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Enjoy one, two three, starting your morning off right, A
new way of talk, a new way of understanding because
we're in this tidit.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
This is your morning show with michael'dill Trump on.
Speaker 4 (00:37):
The air coast to coast and stream live everywhere on
your iHeartRadio app. This is your morning show, and I
am Michael del jorno.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
What idiot is running the show?
Speaker 5 (00:48):
Thank you?
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
Jeffrey Lyon back in the Broadway studios kicking himself because
he messed up the show prep today is read our
content producer. Notice how I did miss a b There's
two reasons why I don't miss a beat. Why is
that one? Red and I are the same human beings.
So it really doesn't matter if he sends it or not.
(01:10):
We're gonna arrive at the same thing right, and then
I really don't need to look at over because we
look at life. I don't think have we ever? Well,
you tend to get a little. You're more partisan than me.
That's about an only difference you are. You'd play, you would,
you would gladly play. The Democrats are stupid game and
the left versus right where I just kind of take
(01:31):
him one at a time, sensibly right versus wrong. But
stop kicking yourself. You were an enormous failure this morning,
but you've made up for it since what And as always,
if you're not feeling good about yourself, rory shows up
so that you can see yourself as the loser you
really are. No, I'm kidding when it comes to electric
versus gas vehicles, because I know the question is are
(01:52):
retired of paying high prices for gasoline? Are we more
open to electric than ever? I am not one of those.
It somehow has become like a partisan argument, and it's
stupid to be one. If you want an electric cargo,
get one. I personally haven't found enough advantage to make
the move, and I haven't seen one so irresistible that
it forced me to make the move. But where is
(02:13):
America in the balance of this, because it really didn't
matter how much it was pushed on them, incentivized, just
really hasn't taken off.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Is it starting to?
Speaker 6 (02:22):
Well, that's what the numbers seem to show these days,
and we need to make some points perfectly clear. The
data comes as the auto show gets on the way
in Detroit, and what it shows is that last year,
twenty percent of the vehicles sold were either all electric
or hybrid. So what we're really seeing is the surge
and the hybrid vehicles out there. Three point two million
(02:46):
of the so called electrified cars were sold last year.
Of those, one point nine million more hybrids, one point
three all electric.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
So, and by the way, didn't it did it seem
like hybrid was the sensible solution all along? Well, probably
the transitional boy partner. This pun the transitional vehicle that
made the most sense, right, Yeah, it's the trans vehicle
I suppose of this whole thing.
Speaker 6 (03:14):
And it's interesting because the adoption they thought would be
a little bit faster, but it seems to be catching
on now as the infrastructure is rolling out. There are
more charging stations out there, the technology is improving for
faster charging, and then people are saying, well, wait, we
could make the second car an electric and still have
the SUV for with a gas engine when we want
(03:37):
to go visit Grandma. And you know, people are sort
of running the numbers. But because gas prices have been
relatively stable, a little high, but stable, there may not
be as much pressure to make the jump either.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
What I did talk to one guy who was a
general manager of an auto dealership that provided half its
fleet in electric form and looked at me, he goes,
I'd never buy one is ever an EMT. I want
to have gasoline to get the hell out, so I
mean without the fringe, you know, like that. By and large,
what has held it back is the cost differential, the
(04:07):
battery replacement cost and maintenance extra cost. I think you
could make a case by the time you get everything
done in your garage to charge it, if you keep
it long enough, in which you would have to to
make up for the higher cost going in, you'd have
the high maintenance in between. And the battery replacement range
was an early issue, that's not as much of an
issue anymore. And you mentioned great strides in the infrastructure
(04:30):
in charging stations. So but I don't know that they've
come up with anything to offset the cost difference. Although
all cars are so expensive now, it's not quite as noticeable.
They're all ridiculous. You can't get anything fro under eighty grand. Yeah,
it's almost that bad.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
But yeah, I think so there is an all electric
leaf out there you can get for around thirty grand
would probably be the lowest entry point on all electric.
But we're also seeing more of the electric cars like
the Tesla's hit the second market, so people are sometimes
picking him up there, and of course that has pluses
and minuses, as you said, with the cost of battery replacement.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
But look, it's a.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
The market is doing its thing, and that's really what
we want out of all this.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
Right, Yeah, I'm glad, but I'm sold.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
I was just gonna say, I'm so glad you saw
through and because I'm thinking you need to leave right now.
But you saw through that this is coming out of
the thirty seconds or this is coming out of the
Detroit Auto Show, because listen, as an industry BMW Mercedes,
a lot of people want all in and lost their
you know, whats right, So I think they're trying to
sell something and they certainly got a lot of inventory
sitting out there, but.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
There is some change.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
Look, I got a friend, Chas Corson loves his Tesla,
loves it with all his heart, and I say, God,
bless you. There just hasn't been one that's wooed me
into buying it yet. And then I would love to
see research in the future. How many families are doing
one EV and keeping one gas.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
I bet that's a high number. Two. Great reporting. We're
he's gonna be back in the third hour.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
We're gonna get an update on that Israeli Hamasi's fire
and hostage release, and I can't wait to kick around
with him the thirty to fifty model that is being
enacted all right, twelve minutes after the hour. Thanks for
waking up with your morning show. The death toll in
the fires in southern California is at twenty seven. Firefighters
are still battling the two massive blazes burning in the
La area, and there's now major rumblings over whether or
(06:18):
not California Governor Gavin Newsom will retain his job once
these fires are under control and put out.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
I gotta we can't have your morning show without your voice.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
And that's why we ask you to use the talkback line,
which if you're listening on the iHeartRadio app, you see
a microphone, you press it. It goes three two one,
You ask your question, make your comment, and instantly we
get it. You don't have to wait on hold, so
use the talkback button. You can also email Michael d
at iHeartMedia dot com and Kathy and Nashville wrote, you
know what, It just occurred to me, Michael. Joe Biden
(06:53):
started his term with a speech vowing to unify the country,
and then he ended with a speech in ten to
divide it.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Interesting bookend, What did she hit the nail? Right on ahead?
Speaker 4 (07:09):
There's another similarity between coming and going, and that's the
Washington Post headline this morning. Biden seeks last minute moves
that could be hard for Trump to undo. From clemency
to conservation. The outgoing president pushes to cement his legacy
ahead of his successor's determination to erase it. Can't argue
(07:32):
with the with the headline, we called it the kamikaze
bitter exit of Joe Biden and how much damage would
he do before he left? The story probably rooting it on,
but still accurate, starts He's designated national monuments in California,
(07:54):
removed Cuba from the list of state sponsored terrorism, blocked
a Japanese company's takeover of view steal, and extended temporary
protected status to nearly one million immigrants. He's commuted the
sentences of nearly everyone who was on federal death row,
and he's granted to his son Hunter a sweeping pardon.
(08:14):
President Joe Biden is ending his time in office as
he began with a burst of executive actions. You know,
I love how the Washington Post now with its new mission,
of course, to inform all of America, which is to
admit it hasn't been ignored. All this on the front
end day two of his presidency, as we entered sixty
(08:40):
four days of silence without a news conference, I said,
are you kidding me? Let's compare the inauguration speech of
Joe Biden to the first forty eight hours of his presidency,
because they don't match. Joe Biden told everybody in a speech,
it's time to stop fighting over everything. It's time to
restore some sense insibility in America. Come on, enough of
(09:04):
this reality TV. Lets unite, And then he walked right
across the street and did thirty nine executive orders and
to race the entire Trump presidency. And it didn't take
but six months to a year before we were right
back where we were before Donald Trump took office. And
he's trying to do the same thing leading and some
(09:27):
of these aren't as easy to undo as you think.
America sees clearly just how bitter Joe Biden is. And
depending on what podcast you listen to or what television
shows you watch, some have covered the bitterness towards Nancy
Pelosi a fifty year betrayal. I'm sure there's some bitterness
(09:48):
for Barack Obama, certainly Michelle Obama, everybody that ran him
out of the.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Race, the same people that covered his.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Cognitive impairment than out of his cognitive impairment ran him
out of the bitter towards them all. He's bitter towards America.
There's a story I'm not going to get to today
that it was one of Red's favorites. He's bitter towards
Red States. Oh, he's bitter leaving. But don't miss he's
spiteful too. Why even the Washington Post, like Kathy noticed,
(10:23):
he's spiteful too.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
It's your morning show with Michael Del Choano.
Speaker 7 (10:29):
I'd like to make a prediction if I can, But
every talk show host is going to be outraged about
today and talk radio, and as you're listening throughout the day,
you'll think of me now when they're doing it. Joe
Biden's letting twenty five hundred people go from prison. This
guy let millions into our country prisoners from other countries,
and now on his way out the door, he's spitefully
(10:50):
letting twenty five hundred prisoners go.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
He's cleaning out the jails. Stop it. What do you think?
Three seven? That's my prediction anyway.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
But here are the top five stories of the day.
We did get a hostage deal, after all, it's been
officially reached between Israel and Hamas early Friday local time,
Prime Minister Benjamin NETANYAHUO released a statement saying both parties
have agreed to a hostage release and cease fire deal.
The deal will go to Israel's cabinet for approval even
(11:25):
as we speak. The statement also said that the families
of the hostages have been informed. This is a thirty
to fifty deal, So for every terrorist, every thirty terrorists
prisoners released, you'll get one male hostage sent back to Israel.
For every fifty prisoner released by Israel, you'll get one
female hostage. It's a little part of the deal that
(11:48):
a lot of people weren't aware of. Meanwhile, President Elect
Trump's inauguration is being called an attractive potential target for
violent extremists.
Speaker 8 (11:55):
That's according to US national security agencies. The FBI, Secret Service,
Capital Police, the Washington DC government, and the Supreme Court's
Police Department have compiled a threat assessment. It laid out
various scenarios and the types of people like foreign or
domestic terrorists.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Who could make them happen.
Speaker 8 (12:11):
Officials have been on high alert, especially after last summer's
assassination attempts on Trump and the New Year's Day attacks
in New Orleans and Las Vegas. The agencies do note
that there are no specific credible threats.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
I'm Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
Well, you got the Washington Post rebranding itself with a
new mission statement. CNN's making some move to try to
reinvent themselves as well, like Wolf Blitzer to the Mornings
in a massive network shakeup.
Speaker 9 (12:37):
That's according to a newsletter from former CNN media analyst
Oliver Darcy. Blitzer will reportedly be paired with Pamela Brown
on a new morning show as part of moves made
by CEO Mark Thompson following a ratings decline. It hasn't
been determined whether the pairing of Blitzer and Brown will
be under his signature Situation Room name or a different
(12:58):
branding MEANWI, while former Chief White House correspondent turned anchor
Jim Acosta is reportedly being removed from his CNN Newsroom
show I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
Oh, they got a situation, but it's not the Situation Room.
Flags are being raised to full staff at the US
Capitol for the coming Monday inauguration of President elect Donald Trump,
Michael Casner reports.
Speaker 10 (13:20):
Last month, following President President Biden ordered American flags lowered
to half staff for thirty days in remembrance of former
President Jimmy Carter. On Tuesday, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson
posted on x that flags at the Capitol would fly
at full staff on inauguration day and then lowered back
to half staff the following day to continue honoring Carter.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
I'm Michael Cassner. Well, if you thought Telsea Gabbard or
RFK Junior was strange, bedfellows with Donald Trump. How about
New York City? Eric had Adams headed to Florida. Andrew
Whitman reports.
Speaker 11 (13:56):
The Mayor's office quietly dropped a schedule update Thursday night
announced Adam's trip. Adams has talked about working with the
incoming administration despite Trump's repeated attacks and complaints about his
former home city and state. Adams shifted to a tougher
tone on migrants suspected of crimes after meeting with Trump's
incoming borders are last month. Trump has threatened to strip
(14:17):
federal funding to the city unless it helps with his
planned immigration crackdown. He's also talked of possibly pardoning Adams,
who faces an April trial on federal bribery charges. Andrew Whitman,
NBC News Radio New York.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
The musicians performing for President Elect Trump's inauguration weekend are announced.
Carrie Underwood, Kid Rock, You're listening to, Philly Ray, Cyrus,
Jason Aldeine, Rascal Flats. That's a lot of countryfolk, village
people all set to perform. A statement from the inaugural
committee said that the weekend will be a celebration of music, unity,
and patriotism. Mushering in America's new Golden Age.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
And finally, the best of the West played the best
of the East.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
Two of our Your Morning Cities clashed, Oklahoma City and Cleveland,
this time the thunder one one thirty four to one fourteen.
That's your top five stories of the day. Waking up
on this Friday, January seventeenth. I I want to come
back and you know, sounds of the day, you know,
as a feature or to just kind of you know,
(15:21):
what was the old song if a bigture, the thousand
Red and that's what sound kind of does, kind of
like a picture. I think the Democrats in general didn't
read the room right, and so to do a business
as usual attack on cabinet members is just not the
(15:43):
mood America is in. And then to make it even worse,
these weren't your normal cabinet nominees. I mean, Pam BONDI
she slapped them all silly right back. Usually you want
and you go, man, who would want to be a
cabinet member? But you know, if you just sit there
and take it for an hour, hour and a half
(16:05):
and you get confirmed and you just go on your
merry way.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
But that hasn't been the case. This time.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
This has been blown up in the Democrats face, and
you'll see that crystal clear in our Sounds of the day.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Next, this is Steve the Wrestler, a refugee from the
People's Republic of Minnesota.
Speaker 5 (16:26):
And My Morning show is Your Morning Show with Michael
Del Jorno.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Hi, It's Michael.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Your Morning Show airs live five to eight am Central,
six to nine Eastern in great cities like Memphis, Tennessee, Telsa, Oklahoma, Sacramento, California.
You'd love to be a part of your morning routine,
but we're happy you're here. Now, enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
What's better in the summer when it's hot outside and
you come in and your air conditioning's real cold, You
know how wonderful that is? Or in the winter when
it's kind of warm and a little stuffy in the
house and you step outside, that crisp, cold air, fresh
air is always the best. I don't know, they're both
kind of great moments. But I got my eye black
(17:12):
on and I'm out on the field now for the
second half of the show. We do have the divisional
playoff round in the NFL getting under way starting tomorrow
afternoon at three thirty. Chiefs will handle the Texans easy
at home. The Lions and the Commanders, this could be
closer than you think, but I like the Lions to advance.
I think the Eagles are about to get a shock
(17:33):
from the Rams. And I can't tell you who will
win the Ravens and the Bills game. It could go
either way. It ought to be the best game of
the weekend. I think it's going to be the Ravens.
If you're just waking up. We do, after all, have
a ceasefire deal now, the hostage release deal is on officially,
the announcement made by Benjamin Nettnahu. The confirmed death toll
(17:53):
in southern California has now risen to twenty seven as
they continue to fight two massive fires still, and there
are major rumblings over whether or not California's Governor Gavin
Newsom is going to retain his job once these fires
are put out, and the President of Elects inauguration is
being called an attractive potential target for violent extremists, and
(18:13):
the Supreme Court release at least one opinion today regarding
the upcoming TikTok ban. That's just some of the top
stories we're working on this morning. And then of course,
there's always the issue of sound, and are sounds of
the day.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
She's going to get smoked.
Speaker 5 (18:29):
He's got to stopped.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
I really don't know what he said at the end
of this, and that sounds said. It's got to be
a big bits understanding. I'm going win.
Speaker 5 (18:41):
I'm going when it is.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
Can't wait to see it in the inaugural parade. All right,
let's start with this disaster that has been confirmation hearings
where the left is attacking and these in America just
doesn't have the stomach for the political games, let alone
these cabinet nominees are really not taken it. It's been
a disastrous week for Democrats for those that are watching.
(19:06):
If we had to pick the worst of them, I
think I'm going to go with the Hawaii Senator.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
And here's why, Chairman, welcome.
Speaker 12 (19:17):
As part of my responsibilities to ensure the fitness of
nominees before any of the committee, so much I said,
I asked the following two initial questions.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
First, have you ever.
Speaker 12 (19:29):
Made a wanted request for sexual favors or committed any
verbal or physical harassment or assault of a sexual nature.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
No, Senator, I have not.
Speaker 12 (19:38):
Have you ever faced discipline or entered into a settlement
related to this kind of conduct.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
I have not you know who was it.
Speaker 4 (19:49):
Earlier in the week read that was doing like a
monologue and they were saying, you know, you've got a
potential secretary of Defense and Pete hegseaith, wouldn't you I
want to talk to him about China, Russia, Iran, terrorism,
porous borders at home and it was everything. What that.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
This sound? Well, this is.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
A city council meeting in Los Angeles twenty one days
before the fire. You see when you needed real leadership
was before the fire, let alone. They didn't get it
after the fire and during the fire. But if one
of our headlines is there's some questions about their Gavin
Newsom's job is secure once these fires are put and
(20:43):
the mayor here is the Los Angeles Fire Department twenty
one days before the fire started begging the city council
not to make cuts and certainly not now.
Speaker 13 (20:57):
If we cut one position, if we close one station,
if we close one resource, the residents of Los Angeles
are going to pay the ultimate sacrifice and someone will die.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Well, twenty seven have died and rising.
Speaker 4 (21:12):
I told a story in the early hour about two
owners of a radio station I worked for, and they
wanted to gut the news department. They wanted to do
it like forty five days, I think, before the most
consequential presidential election in American history. And I remember looking
at him and saying, all right, never mind whether this
is smart, if you have to do this, if you
want to do this, I'll listen to you. But the
(21:36):
fact that you're willing to do this forty five days
right before the most consequential election and not wait, there
is no intelligent argument for that. That's that came up
to in this city council meeting.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
Listen.
Speaker 14 (21:51):
Just last month, fire personnel packed in LA Fire Commission meeting,
sagging the city to rethink the budget.
Speaker 15 (21:59):
These cuts came in exactly the wrong time, with calls
for services at an all time high and our firefighters
at their breaking point.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
We are straining our departments resources beyond the brink and
we cannot continue. And that's an important sound because you know,
we did two big stories and I'm going to revisit
them next hour, just because i want to make sure
everybody makes that journey of discovery. Before the weekend. You
have the Washington Post with its new mission statement, We're
(22:28):
going to reach all of America and what we were
reaching before?
Speaker 3 (22:31):
What are you admitting in this new mission statement?
Speaker 4 (22:36):
And then we had the blockbuster story that the FBI
has scrapped its DEI office in an overall of woke policies,
just days before Trump takes office, really days before Cash
Pattel takes over the FBI, And we discussed this notion
of something bigger than Donald Trump is won and something
bigger than Kamala Harris has lost. Now, in the case
(23:02):
of California, the mayor wanted twenty four million dollars cut
from the budget, got seventeen and a half million cut
from the budget. That's your firefighters telling you, look, this
is completely the wrong time and our citizens are going
to pay the price with their life, which is exactly
what has panned out twenty one days later. But where
(23:25):
was that money cut from to go to homelessness, of
which half never even got there? This is yesterday, Kamala Harris,
I guess she doesn't get a formal farewell address. Biden's
was a farewell address to a country that said good
(23:46):
ridden's already. It was bitter, it was spiteful, what kind
of words out did Kamala Harris put together to say goodbye.
Speaker 16 (23:56):
And I'm not going to go through the laundry list
of all of our accomplishments.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
We know what they are.
Speaker 5 (24:01):
But I will tell you.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
I wish I was a reporter in the room. All right,
don't go through the lottery desk. Could you just give
us one dude?
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Dude, dude, dude, dude.
Speaker 16 (24:13):
But I will tell you that everyone here has so
much to be proud of, and our work is not done.
And as you all know me, because we have spent
long hours, long days and months and years together, it
is not my nature to go quietly into the night.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
So don't worry about that.
Speaker 16 (24:33):
But the ceremony of signing this desk is something that
is especially important. So I hope everyone will get a
chance to see the desk. But I have, actually, I think,
with the exception of Truman and Eisenhower, met every person
who has signed this desk, every vice president, former vice president.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Only with that, I'm going to go out sharply.
Speaker 13 (25:11):
All right, it's time everybody's hearing to get out.
Speaker 16 (25:19):
I'm going to continue getting work done until Monday, and then.
Speaker 4 (25:22):
I'll keep you hosting that we might have a drink
or two, or four or five. Going back to the cabinet,
this has probably been I think read the most played
audio from yesterday, and this is the exchange between Bernie
Sanders and Treasury nominee Scott Bissett. Here's how it sounded.
Speaker 17 (25:45):
We have a corrupt campaign finance system in which a
small number of billionaires in both political parties make huge
contributions into the presidential and congressional campaigns. When you have
a small number of multi billionaires who have enormous economic, media.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
And political power.
Speaker 17 (26:10):
Would you agree with President Biden who last night stated,
and I quote and Oligaki is taking shape in America
of extreme wealth, power and influence that threatens our entire democracy,
our basic rights and freedom.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
End of quote.
Speaker 17 (26:28):
That's what President Biden said last night. I agree with him, do.
Speaker 18 (26:32):
You, Senator Sanders? I enjoyed her visit.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
You can talk a little bit closer to the MI.
I enjoyed her visit.
Speaker 18 (26:40):
And I hope you got my follow up materials that
we've on the discussion, my previous writings on the terrorists
and China, and with the three billionaires who you listed
that all made the money themselves, mister Musk came to
(27:02):
the country as an immigrant.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
I understand that.
Speaker 14 (27:04):
But what I'm asking you is when you have a
handful of people like Musk who will soon be a
part of the Trump administration and others, when you have
three people owning more wealth from the bottom half of
American society, when these people have enormous influence over the media,
when they spend huge amounts of money.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
Now that sounds like he's describing sorrows Bezos and Zuckerberg,
doesn't it. But that's not oligarchy. That's saving the democracy
when it's supporting them. Another thing that's kind of gone viral.
H Do I have a minute? That's your shit? This
is pretty well done. Now, it's mostly a visual. You
(27:47):
got to see the clips as you're listening to the song.
I anybody that attempts to do a cover of Steve
Perry's voice very very courageous.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Gonna worry about it.
Speaker 5 (28:01):
First of all, I'm not gonna worry about it, Phil
because he's not gonna win.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
He's not gonna win. She's gonna win.
Speaker 19 (28:07):
His hope and joy rising victory is in sight in less.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Than three weeks.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
Now, Remember what I've been saying all morning long, something
bigger than Donald Trump is won, something bigger than Kamala Harrison,
Joe Biden has lost.
Speaker 5 (28:25):
I think that that he loses. We just made history.
Speaker 20 (28:29):
How do you like my garbage from?
Speaker 19 (28:31):
But stick can't see Fred understood coming?
Speaker 5 (28:37):
Is ou bad? You thought that you good? Gee?
Speaker 20 (28:46):
I can now love to show his storidy.
Speaker 5 (28:50):
I'm married to save you.
Speaker 19 (28:52):
Shave your head, sad, cut off the charge, your plan to.
Speaker 20 (29:06):
Speech come last, Tim.
Speaker 12 (29:18):
In the.
Speaker 5 (29:22):
Speech, the hatred you and my.
Speaker 20 (29:34):
Division you inside.
Speaker 19 (29:38):
It's not the Maga way, Okay, Tim in the street
to the paint now father machine you learned.
Speaker 4 (29:53):
But to be honest, you really have to enjoy the
visuals throughout of all the videos. Because more than Kamala
Harris lost than Joe Biden lost. Journalism was dead, but
I mean the mainstream media is dead and decomposing. A
great vocal, great lyrics, truthful, and it points to something
(30:17):
bigger than Trump is one, and something bigger than Kamala
has lost.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
And that, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 4 (30:22):
Are your sounds of the day.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
This is your Morning Show with Michael del Chno.
Speaker 4 (30:36):
As America prepares to have a transfer of power, our
white House correspondent who's about to cover another president, a
different president when he covered a few years ago. John
Decker is joining us. This is one of those John,
that's really kind of fascinating. How they'll have tea together
visit and as they're doing that, trucks will be loading
(30:57):
one family stuff to take away and loading anothers and
putting in place to live. And there's a lot of
stuff that goes on this weekend. Walk us through some
of it.
Speaker 15 (31:06):
Yeah, that's right. That takes place at both sixteen hundred
Pennsylvania Avenue as well as the Vice President's mansion at
the Naval Observatory. The moving in, the moving out, and
that all happens within a matter of hours. Noon on
Monday Eastern Time is when Donald Trump will be sworn
in as America's forty seventh president.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
I'll be there.
Speaker 15 (31:27):
It's going to be my eighth presidential inauguration. I get
excited for each and every one of them, and I
can't wait for Monday, even though it's going to be
bitterly cold during the course of that day, but I'm
prepared for that and I'm looking forward to covering this
new administration. As you point out, covered Donald Trump his
first term, and now I'll cover him for his second term.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
How different you think Donald Trump is going to be
this time?
Speaker 4 (31:54):
I think he's going to be relatively the same.
Speaker 15 (31:56):
Donald Trump as Donald Trump. And I say that because
I've known him for many years. First time I interviewed
Donald Trump was way back in nineteen ninety nine. And
he's the same person even before he was in politics,
that I encountered when I interviewed him for one hour back.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
In nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 15 (32:14):
So I expect it's going to be very similar to
the president that I covered during those first that first term,
and doubles have to wait and see. He's got a
Republican Congress, just like he did when he was sworn
in in term number one.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
Donna, I can't remember her last name.
Speaker 4 (32:32):
Now she was an operative in the Obama Now she's
an MSNBC correspondence. So there's not going to be a
resistance congress this time around. Do you think there's going
to be a resistance media this time around? I mean,
even the Washington Post has got a new slogan right.
Speaker 15 (32:46):
Well, the Washington Post is owned by Jeff Bezos. Jeff
Bezos is trying to cozy up to Donald Trump. I
don't know if that will filter into editorial coverage. I
doubt it very much. I think reporters who are good
will ask the tough questions, just like they asked the
tough questions four other administrations.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
That's certainly my go to.
Speaker 15 (33:06):
I've always asked questions regardless of whether it's a Republican
or a Democrat who's in power. And you know, I
think that's the way to go about doing your job.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
So we have bitter Cold, that'll be a headline.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
We have a church service, are a ceremony at the
twob of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington. You have the
tea which, by the way, as we talked about yesterday,
Milanya is declined having tea with Jill. But Biden and
Trump will meet at the White House and they'll make
their way to the oath who's who of country stars.
(33:38):
In addition to the village people will be performing and
balls and parades, including that garbage truck. It's going to
be it's going to be a completely different conversation when
we meet.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
Again on Monday.
Speaker 4 (33:48):
John Deck, or White House correspondent, thanks so much for
joining us.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
We're all in this together. This is your morning show
with Michaelden Hill JO or No.
Hi, I'm Michael, and your morning show is heard on
great radio stations across the country like one oh five,
nine twelve fifty w HNZ and Tampa, Florida, News Radio
five seventy wkb N and 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.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Enjoy one, two three, starting your morning off right, A
new way of talk, a new way of understanding because
we're in this tidit.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
This is your morning show with michael'dill Trump on.
Speaker 4 (00:37):
The air coast to coast and stream live everywhere on
your iHeartRadio app. This is your morning show, and I
am Michael del jorno.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
What idiot is running the show?
Speaker 5 (00:48):
Thank you?
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
Jeffrey Lyon back in the Broadway studios kicking himself because
he messed up the show prep today is read our
content producer. Notice how I did miss a b There's
two reasons why I don't miss a beat. Why is
that one? Red and I are the same human beings.
So it really doesn't matter if he sends it or not.
(01:10):
We're gonna arrive at the same thing right, and then
I really don't need to look at over because we
look at life. I don't think have we ever? Well,
you tend to get a little. You're more partisan than me.
That's about an only difference you are. You'd play, you would,
you would gladly play. The Democrats are stupid game and
the left versus right where I just kind of take
(01:31):
him one at a time, sensibly right versus wrong. But
stop kicking yourself. You were an enormous failure this morning,
but you've made up for it since what And as always,
if you're not feeling good about yourself, rory shows up
so that you can see yourself as the loser you
really are. No, I'm kidding when it comes to electric
versus gas vehicles, because I know the question is are
(01:52):
retired of paying high prices for gasoline? Are we more
open to electric than ever? I am not one of those.
It somehow has become like a partisan argument, and it's
stupid to be one. If you want an electric cargo,
get one. I personally haven't found enough advantage to make
the move, and I haven't seen one so irresistible that
it forced me to make the move. But where is
(02:13):
America in the balance of this, because it really didn't
matter how much it was pushed on them, incentivized, just
really hasn't taken off.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Is it starting to?
Speaker 6 (02:22):
Well, that's what the numbers seem to show these days,
and we need to make some points perfectly clear. The
data comes as the auto show gets on the way
in Detroit, and what it shows is that last year,
twenty percent of the vehicles sold were either all electric
or hybrid. So what we're really seeing is the surge
and the hybrid vehicles out there. Three point two million
(02:46):
of the so called electrified cars were sold last year.
Of those, one point nine million more hybrids, one point
three all electric.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
So, and by the way, didn't it did it seem
like hybrid was the sensible solution all along? Well, probably
the transitional boy partner. This pun the transitional vehicle that
made the most sense, right, Yeah, it's the trans vehicle
I suppose of this whole thing.
Speaker 6 (03:14):
And it's interesting because the adoption they thought would be
a little bit faster, but it seems to be catching
on now as the infrastructure is rolling out. There are
more charging stations out there, the technology is improving for
faster charging, and then people are saying, well, wait, we
could make the second car an electric and still have
the SUV for with a gas engine when we want
(03:37):
to go visit Grandma. And you know, people are sort
of running the numbers. But because gas prices have been
relatively stable, a little high, but stable, there may not
be as much pressure to make the jump either.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
What I did talk to one guy who was a
general manager of an auto dealership that provided half its
fleet in electric form and looked at me, he goes,
I'd never buy one is ever an EMT. I want
to have gasoline to get the hell out, so I
mean without the fringe, you know, like that. By and large,
what has held it back is the cost differential, the
(04:07):
battery replacement cost and maintenance extra cost. I think you
could make a case by the time you get everything
done in your garage to charge it, if you keep
it long enough, in which you would have to to
make up for the higher cost going in, you'd have
the high maintenance in between. And the battery replacement range
was an early issue, that's not as much of an
issue anymore. And you mentioned great strides in the infrastructure
(04:30):
in charging stations. So but I don't know that they've
come up with anything to offset the cost difference. Although
all cars are so expensive now, it's not quite as noticeable.
They're all ridiculous. You can't get anything fro under eighty grand. Yeah,
it's almost that bad.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
But yeah, I think so there is an all electric
leaf out there you can get for around thirty grand
would probably be the lowest entry point on all electric.
But we're also seeing more of the electric cars like
the Tesla's hit the second market, so people are sometimes
picking him up there, and of course that has pluses
and minuses, as you said, with the cost of battery replacement.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
But look, it's a.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
The market is doing its thing, and that's really what
we want out of all this.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
Right, Yeah, I'm glad, but I'm sold.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
I was just gonna say, I'm so glad you saw
through and because I'm thinking you need to leave right now.
But you saw through that this is coming out of
the thirty seconds or this is coming out of the
Detroit Auto Show, because listen, as an industry BMW Mercedes,
a lot of people want all in and lost their
you know, whats right, So I think they're trying to
sell something and they certainly got a lot of inventory
sitting out there, but.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
There is some change.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
Look, I got a friend, Chas Corson loves his Tesla,
loves it with all his heart, and I say, God,
bless you. There just hasn't been one that's wooed me
into buying it yet. And then I would love to
see research in the future. How many families are doing
one EV and keeping one gas.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
I bet that's a high number. Two. Great reporting. We're
he's gonna be back in the third hour.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
We're gonna get an update on that Israeli Hamasi's fire
and hostage release, and I can't wait to kick around
with him the thirty to fifty model that is being
enacted all right, twelve minutes after the hour. Thanks for
waking up with your morning show. The death toll in
the fires in southern California is at twenty seven. Firefighters
are still battling the two massive blazes burning in the
La area, and there's now major rumblings over whether or
(06:18):
not California Governor Gavin Newsom will retain his job once
these fires are under control and put out.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
I gotta we can't have your morning show without your voice.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
And that's why we ask you to use the talkback line,
which if you're listening on the iHeartRadio app, you see
a microphone, you press it. It goes three two one,
You ask your question, make your comment, and instantly we
get it. You don't have to wait on hold, so
use the talkback button. You can also email Michael d
at iHeartMedia dot com and Kathy and Nashville wrote, you
know what, It just occurred to me, Michael. Joe Biden
(06:53):
started his term with a speech vowing to unify the country,
and then he ended with a speech in ten to
divide it.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Interesting bookend, What did she hit the nail? Right on ahead?
Speaker 4 (07:09):
There's another similarity between coming and going, and that's the
Washington Post headline this morning. Biden seeks last minute moves
that could be hard for Trump to undo. From clemency
to conservation. The outgoing president pushes to cement his legacy
ahead of his successor's determination to erase it. Can't argue
(07:32):
with the with the headline, we called it the kamikaze
bitter exit of Joe Biden and how much damage would
he do before he left? The story probably rooting it on,
but still accurate, starts He's designated national monuments in California,
(07:54):
removed Cuba from the list of state sponsored terrorism, blocked
a Japanese company's takeover of view steal, and extended temporary
protected status to nearly one million immigrants. He's commuted the
sentences of nearly everyone who was on federal death row,
and he's granted to his son Hunter a sweeping pardon.
(08:14):
President Joe Biden is ending his time in office as
he began with a burst of executive actions. You know,
I love how the Washington Post now with its new mission,
of course, to inform all of America, which is to
admit it hasn't been ignored. All this on the front
end day two of his presidency, as we entered sixty
(08:40):
four days of silence without a news conference, I said,
are you kidding me? Let's compare the inauguration speech of
Joe Biden to the first forty eight hours of his presidency,
because they don't match. Joe Biden told everybody in a speech,
it's time to stop fighting over everything. It's time to
restore some sense insibility in America. Come on, enough of
(09:04):
this reality TV. Lets unite, And then he walked right
across the street and did thirty nine executive orders and
to race the entire Trump presidency. And it didn't take
but six months to a year before we were right
back where we were before Donald Trump took office. And
he's trying to do the same thing leading and some
(09:27):
of these aren't as easy to undo as you think.
America sees clearly just how bitter Joe Biden is. And
depending on what podcast you listen to or what television
shows you watch, some have covered the bitterness towards Nancy
Pelosi a fifty year betrayal. I'm sure there's some bitterness
(09:48):
for Barack Obama, certainly Michelle Obama, everybody that ran him
out of the.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Race, the same people that covered his.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Cognitive impairment than out of his cognitive impairment ran him
out of the bitter towards them all. He's bitter towards America.
There's a story I'm not going to get to today
that it was one of Red's favorites. He's bitter towards
Red States. Oh, he's bitter leaving. But don't miss he's
spiteful too. Why even the Washington Post, like Kathy noticed,
(10:23):
he's spiteful too.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
It's your morning show with Michael Del Choano.
Speaker 7 (10:29):
I'd like to make a prediction if I can, But
every talk show host is going to be outraged about
today and talk radio, and as you're listening throughout the day,
you'll think of me now when they're doing it. Joe
Biden's letting twenty five hundred people go from prison. This
guy let millions into our country prisoners from other countries,
and now on his way out the door, he's spitefully
(10:50):
letting twenty five hundred prisoners go.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
He's cleaning out the jails. Stop it. What do you think?
Three seven? That's my prediction anyway.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
But here are the top five stories of the day.
We did get a hostage deal, after all, it's been
officially reached between Israel and Hamas early Friday local time,
Prime Minister Benjamin NETANYAHUO released a statement saying both parties
have agreed to a hostage release and cease fire deal.
The deal will go to Israel's cabinet for approval even
(11:25):
as we speak. The statement also said that the families
of the hostages have been informed. This is a thirty
to fifty deal, So for every terrorist, every thirty terrorists
prisoners released, you'll get one male hostage sent back to Israel.
For every fifty prisoner released by Israel, you'll get one
female hostage. It's a little part of the deal that
(11:48):
a lot of people weren't aware of. Meanwhile, President Elect
Trump's inauguration is being called an attractive potential target for
violent extremists.
Speaker 8 (11:55):
That's according to US national security agencies. The FBI, Secret Service,
Capital Police, the Washington DC government, and the Supreme Court's
Police Department have compiled a threat assessment. It laid out
various scenarios and the types of people like foreign or
domestic terrorists.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Who could make them happen.
Speaker 8 (12:11):
Officials have been on high alert, especially after last summer's
assassination attempts on Trump and the New Year's Day attacks
in New Orleans and Las Vegas. The agencies do note
that there are no specific credible threats.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
I'm Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
Well, you got the Washington Post rebranding itself with a
new mission statement. CNN's making some move to try to
reinvent themselves as well, like Wolf Blitzer to the Mornings
in a massive network shakeup.
Speaker 9 (12:37):
That's according to a newsletter from former CNN media analyst
Oliver Darcy. Blitzer will reportedly be paired with Pamela Brown
on a new morning show as part of moves made
by CEO Mark Thompson following a ratings decline. It hasn't
been determined whether the pairing of Blitzer and Brown will
be under his signature Situation Room name or a different
(12:58):
branding MEANWI, while former Chief White House correspondent turned anchor
Jim Acosta is reportedly being removed from his CNN Newsroom
show I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
Oh, they got a situation, but it's not the Situation Room.
Flags are being raised to full staff at the US
Capitol for the coming Monday inauguration of President elect Donald Trump,
Michael Casner reports.
Speaker 10 (13:20):
Last month, following President President Biden ordered American flags lowered
to half staff for thirty days in remembrance of former
President Jimmy Carter. On Tuesday, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson
posted on x that flags at the Capitol would fly
at full staff on inauguration day and then lowered back
to half staff the following day to continue honoring Carter.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
I'm Michael Cassner. Well, if you thought Telsea Gabbard or
RFK Junior was strange, bedfellows with Donald Trump. How about
New York City? Eric had Adams headed to Florida. Andrew
Whitman reports.
Speaker 11 (13:56):
The Mayor's office quietly dropped a schedule update Thursday night
announced Adam's trip. Adams has talked about working with the
incoming administration despite Trump's repeated attacks and complaints about his
former home city and state. Adams shifted to a tougher
tone on migrants suspected of crimes after meeting with Trump's
incoming borders are last month. Trump has threatened to strip
(14:17):
federal funding to the city unless it helps with his
planned immigration crackdown. He's also talked of possibly pardoning Adams,
who faces an April trial on federal bribery charges. Andrew Whitman,
NBC News Radio New York.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
The musicians performing for President Elect Trump's inauguration weekend are announced.
Carrie Underwood, Kid Rock, You're listening to, Philly Ray, Cyrus,
Jason Aldeine, Rascal Flats. That's a lot of countryfolk, village
people all set to perform. A statement from the inaugural
committee said that the weekend will be a celebration of music, unity,
and patriotism. Mushering in America's new Golden Age.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
And finally, the best of the West played the best
of the East.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
Two of our Your Morning Cities clashed, Oklahoma City and Cleveland,
this time the thunder one one thirty four to one fourteen.
That's your top five stories of the day. Waking up
on this Friday, January seventeenth. I I want to come
back and you know, sounds of the day, you know,
as a feature or to just kind of you know,
(15:21):
what was the old song if a bigture, the thousand
Red and that's what sound kind of does, kind of
like a picture. I think the Democrats in general didn't
read the room right, and so to do a business
as usual attack on cabinet members is just not the
(15:43):
mood America is in. And then to make it even worse,
these weren't your normal cabinet nominees. I mean, Pam BONDI
she slapped them all silly right back. Usually you want
and you go, man, who would want to be a
cabinet member? But you know, if you just sit there
and take it for an hour, hour and a half
(16:05):
and you get confirmed and you just go on your
merry way.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
But that hasn't been the case. This time.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
This has been blown up in the Democrats face, and
you'll see that crystal clear in our Sounds of the day.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Next, this is Steve the Wrestler, a refugee from the
People's Republic of Minnesota.
Speaker 5 (16:26):
And My Morning show is Your Morning Show with Michael
Del Jorno.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Hi, It's Michael.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Your Morning Show airs live five to eight am Central,
six to nine Eastern in great cities like Memphis, Tennessee, Telsa, Oklahoma, Sacramento, California.
You'd love to be a part of your morning routine,
but we're happy you're here. Now, enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
What's better in the summer when it's hot outside and
you come in and your air conditioning's real cold, You
know how wonderful that is? Or in the winter when
it's kind of warm and a little stuffy in the
house and you step outside, that crisp, cold air, fresh
air is always the best. I don't know, they're both
kind of great moments. But I got my eye black
(17:12):
on and I'm out on the field now for the
second half of the show. We do have the divisional
playoff round in the NFL getting under way starting tomorrow
afternoon at three thirty. Chiefs will handle the Texans easy
at home. The Lions and the Commanders, this could be
closer than you think, but I like the Lions to advance.
I think the Eagles are about to get a shock
(17:33):
from the Rams. And I can't tell you who will
win the Ravens and the Bills game. It could go
either way. It ought to be the best game of
the weekend. I think it's going to be the Ravens.
If you're just waking up. We do, after all, have
a ceasefire deal now, the hostage release deal is on officially,
the announcement made by Benjamin Nettnahu. The confirmed death toll
(17:53):
in southern California has now risen to twenty seven as
they continue to fight two massive fires still, and there
are major rumblings over whether or not California's Governor Gavin
Newsom is going to retain his job once these fires
are put out, and the President of Elects inauguration is
being called an attractive potential target for violent extremists, and
(18:13):
the Supreme Court release at least one opinion today regarding
the upcoming TikTok ban. That's just some of the top
stories we're working on this morning. And then of course,
there's always the issue of sound, and are sounds of
the day.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
She's going to get smoked.
Speaker 5 (18:29):
He's got to stopped.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
I really don't know what he said at the end
of this, and that sounds said. It's got to be
a big bits understanding. I'm going win.
Speaker 5 (18:41):
I'm going when it is.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
Can't wait to see it in the inaugural parade. All right,
let's start with this disaster that has been confirmation hearings
where the left is attacking and these in America just
doesn't have the stomach for the political games, let alone
these cabinet nominees are really not taken it. It's been
a disastrous week for Democrats for those that are watching.
(19:06):
If we had to pick the worst of them, I
think I'm going to go with the Hawaii Senator.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
And here's why, Chairman, welcome.
Speaker 12 (19:17):
As part of my responsibilities to ensure the fitness of
nominees before any of the committee, so much I said,
I asked the following two initial questions.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
First, have you ever.
Speaker 12 (19:29):
Made a wanted request for sexual favors or committed any
verbal or physical harassment or assault of a sexual nature.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
No, Senator, I have not.
Speaker 12 (19:38):
Have you ever faced discipline or entered into a settlement
related to this kind of conduct.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
I have not you know who was it.
Speaker 4 (19:49):
Earlier in the week read that was doing like a
monologue and they were saying, you know, you've got a
potential secretary of Defense and Pete hegseaith, wouldn't you I
want to talk to him about China, Russia, Iran, terrorism,
porous borders at home and it was everything. What that.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
This sound? Well, this is.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
A city council meeting in Los Angeles twenty one days
before the fire. You see when you needed real leadership
was before the fire, let alone. They didn't get it
after the fire and during the fire. But if one
of our headlines is there's some questions about their Gavin
Newsom's job is secure once these fires are put and
(20:43):
the mayor here is the Los Angeles Fire Department twenty
one days before the fire started begging the city council
not to make cuts and certainly not now.
Speaker 13 (20:57):
If we cut one position, if we close one station,
if we close one resource, the residents of Los Angeles
are going to pay the ultimate sacrifice and someone will die.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Well, twenty seven have died and rising.
Speaker 4 (21:12):
I told a story in the early hour about two
owners of a radio station I worked for, and they
wanted to gut the news department. They wanted to do
it like forty five days, I think, before the most
consequential presidential election in American history. And I remember looking
at him and saying, all right, never mind whether this
is smart, if you have to do this, if you
want to do this, I'll listen to you. But the
(21:36):
fact that you're willing to do this forty five days
right before the most consequential election and not wait, there
is no intelligent argument for that. That's that came up
to in this city council meeting.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
Listen.
Speaker 14 (21:51):
Just last month, fire personnel packed in LA Fire Commission meeting,
sagging the city to rethink the budget.
Speaker 15 (21:59):
These cuts came in exactly the wrong time, with calls
for services at an all time high and our firefighters
at their breaking point.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
We are straining our departments resources beyond the brink and
we cannot continue. And that's an important sound because you know,
we did two big stories and I'm going to revisit
them next hour, just because i want to make sure
everybody makes that journey of discovery. Before the weekend. You
have the Washington Post with its new mission statement, We're
(22:28):
going to reach all of America and what we were
reaching before?
Speaker 3 (22:31):
What are you admitting in this new mission statement?
Speaker 4 (22:36):
And then we had the blockbuster story that the FBI
has scrapped its DEI office in an overall of woke policies,
just days before Trump takes office, really days before Cash
Pattel takes over the FBI, And we discussed this notion
of something bigger than Donald Trump is won and something
bigger than Kamala Harris has lost. Now, in the case
(23:02):
of California, the mayor wanted twenty four million dollars cut
from the budget, got seventeen and a half million cut
from the budget. That's your firefighters telling you, look, this
is completely the wrong time and our citizens are going
to pay the price with their life, which is exactly
what has panned out twenty one days later. But where
(23:25):
was that money cut from to go to homelessness, of
which half never even got there? This is yesterday, Kamala Harris,
I guess she doesn't get a formal farewell address. Biden's
was a farewell address to a country that said good
(23:46):
ridden's already. It was bitter, it was spiteful, what kind
of words out did Kamala Harris put together to say goodbye.
Speaker 16 (23:56):
And I'm not going to go through the laundry list
of all of our accomplishments.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
We know what they are.
Speaker 5 (24:01):
But I will tell you.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
I wish I was a reporter in the room. All right,
don't go through the lottery desk. Could you just give
us one dude?
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Dude, dude, dude, dude.
Speaker 16 (24:13):
But I will tell you that everyone here has so
much to be proud of, and our work is not done.
And as you all know me, because we have spent
long hours, long days and months and years together, it
is not my nature to go quietly into the night.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
So don't worry about that.
Speaker 16 (24:33):
But the ceremony of signing this desk is something that
is especially important. So I hope everyone will get a
chance to see the desk. But I have, actually, I think,
with the exception of Truman and Eisenhower, met every person
who has signed this desk, every vice president, former vice president.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Only with that, I'm going to go out sharply.
Speaker 13 (25:11):
All right, it's time everybody's hearing to get out.
Speaker 16 (25:19):
I'm going to continue getting work done until Monday, and then.
Speaker 4 (25:22):
I'll keep you hosting that we might have a drink
or two, or four or five. Going back to the cabinet,
this has probably been I think read the most played
audio from yesterday, and this is the exchange between Bernie
Sanders and Treasury nominee Scott Bissett. Here's how it sounded.
Speaker 17 (25:45):
We have a corrupt campaign finance system in which a
small number of billionaires in both political parties make huge
contributions into the presidential and congressional campaigns. When you have
a small number of multi billionaires who have enormous economic, media.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
And political power.
Speaker 17 (26:10):
Would you agree with President Biden who last night stated,
and I quote and Oligaki is taking shape in America
of extreme wealth, power and influence that threatens our entire democracy,
our basic rights and freedom.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
End of quote.
Speaker 17 (26:28):
That's what President Biden said last night. I agree with him, do.
Speaker 18 (26:32):
You, Senator Sanders? I enjoyed her visit.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
You can talk a little bit closer to the MI.
I enjoyed her visit.
Speaker 18 (26:40):
And I hope you got my follow up materials that
we've on the discussion, my previous writings on the terrorists
and China, and with the three billionaires who you listed
that all made the money themselves, mister Musk came to
(27:02):
the country as an immigrant.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
I understand that.
Speaker 14 (27:04):
But what I'm asking you is when you have a
handful of people like Musk who will soon be a
part of the Trump administration and others, when you have
three people owning more wealth from the bottom half of
American society, when these people have enormous influence over the media,
when they spend huge amounts of money.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
Now that sounds like he's describing sorrows Bezos and Zuckerberg,
doesn't it. But that's not oligarchy. That's saving the democracy
when it's supporting them. Another thing that's kind of gone viral.
H Do I have a minute? That's your shit? This
is pretty well done. Now, it's mostly a visual. You
(27:47):
got to see the clips as you're listening to the song.
I anybody that attempts to do a cover of Steve
Perry's voice very very courageous.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Gonna worry about it.
Speaker 5 (28:01):
First of all, I'm not gonna worry about it, Phil
because he's not gonna win.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
He's not gonna win. She's gonna win.
Speaker 19 (28:07):
His hope and joy rising victory is in sight in less.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Than three weeks.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
Now, Remember what I've been saying all morning long, something
bigger than Donald Trump is won, something bigger than Kamala Harrison,
Joe Biden has lost.
Speaker 5 (28:25):
I think that that he loses. We just made history.
Speaker 20 (28:29):
How do you like my garbage from?
Speaker 19 (28:31):
But stick can't see Fred understood coming?
Speaker 5 (28:37):
Is ou bad? You thought that you good? Gee?
Speaker 20 (28:46):
I can now love to show his storidy.
Speaker 5 (28:50):
I'm married to save you.
Speaker 19 (28:52):
Shave your head, sad, cut off the charge, your plan to.
Speaker 20 (29:06):
Speech come last, Tim.
Speaker 12 (29:18):
In the.
Speaker 5 (29:22):
Speech, the hatred you and my.
Speaker 20 (29:34):
Division you inside.
Speaker 19 (29:38):
It's not the Maga way, Okay, Tim in the street
to the paint now father machine you learned.
Speaker 4 (29:53):
But to be honest, you really have to enjoy the
visuals throughout of all the videos. Because more than Kamala
Harris lost than Joe Biden lost. Journalism was dead, but
I mean the mainstream media is dead and decomposing. A
great vocal, great lyrics, truthful, and it points to something
(30:17):
bigger than Trump is one, and something bigger than Kamala
has lost.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
And that, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 4 (30:22):
Are your sounds of the day.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
This is your Morning Show with Michael del Chno.
Speaker 4 (30:36):
As America prepares to have a transfer of power, our
white House correspondent who's about to cover another president, a
different president when he covered a few years ago. John
Decker is joining us. This is one of those John,
that's really kind of fascinating. How they'll have tea together
visit and as they're doing that, trucks will be loading
(30:57):
one family stuff to take away and loading anothers and
putting in place to live. And there's a lot of
stuff that goes on this weekend. Walk us through some
of it.
Speaker 15 (31:06):
Yeah, that's right. That takes place at both sixteen hundred
Pennsylvania Avenue as well as the Vice President's mansion at
the Naval Observatory. The moving in, the moving out, and
that all happens within a matter of hours. Noon on
Monday Eastern Time is when Donald Trump will be sworn
in as America's forty seventh president.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
I'll be there.
Speaker 15 (31:27):
It's going to be my eighth presidential inauguration. I get
excited for each and every one of them, and I
can't wait for Monday, even though it's going to be
bitterly cold during the course of that day, but I'm
prepared for that and I'm looking forward to covering this
new administration. As you point out, covered Donald Trump his
first term, and now I'll cover him for his second term.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
How different you think Donald Trump is going to be
this time?
Speaker 4 (31:54):
I think he's going to be relatively the same.
Speaker 15 (31:56):
Donald Trump as Donald Trump. And I say that because
I've known him for many years. First time I interviewed
Donald Trump was way back in nineteen ninety nine. And
he's the same person even before he was in politics,
that I encountered when I interviewed him for one hour back.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
In nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 15 (32:14):
So I expect it's going to be very similar to
the president that I covered during those first that first term,
and doubles have to wait and see. He's got a
Republican Congress, just like he did when he was sworn
in in term number one.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
Donna, I can't remember her last name.
Speaker 4 (32:32):
Now she was an operative in the Obama Now she's
an MSNBC correspondence. So there's not going to be a
resistance congress this time around. Do you think there's going
to be a resistance media this time around? I mean,
even the Washington Post has got a new slogan right.
Speaker 15 (32:46):
Well, the Washington Post is owned by Jeff Bezos. Jeff
Bezos is trying to cozy up to Donald Trump. I
don't know if that will filter into editorial coverage. I
doubt it very much. I think reporters who are good
will ask the tough questions, just like they asked the
tough questions four other administrations.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
That's certainly my go to.
Speaker 15 (33:06):
I've always asked questions regardless of whether it's a Republican
or a Democrat who's in power. And you know, I
think that's the way to go about doing your job.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
So we have bitter Cold, that'll be a headline.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
We have a church service, are a ceremony at the
twob of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington. You have the
tea which, by the way, as we talked about yesterday,
Milanya is declined having tea with Jill. But Biden and
Trump will meet at the White House and they'll make
their way to the oath who's who of country stars.
(33:38):
In addition to the village people will be performing and
balls and parades, including that garbage truck. It's going to
be it's going to be a completely different conversation when
we meet.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
Again on Monday.
Speaker 4 (33:48):
John Deck, or White House correspondent, thanks so much for
joining us.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
We're all in this together. This is your morning show
with Michaelden Hill JO or No.
