Surely the steel tariffs, if they stay in place, would raise construction costs. We ask economist and money wiz David Bahnsen if or how that might hinder solving the housing inventory crisis.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's Michael reminding you that your morning show can
be heard live each weekday morning five to eighth Central,
six to nine Eastern and great cities like Nashville, Tennessee, Tupelo, Mississippi,
and Sacramento, California. We'd love to be a part of
your morning routine and take the drive to work with you,
but better late than never. We're grateful you're here now.
Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Two three, starting your morning off right. A new way
of talk, a new way of understanding because we're in.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
This to building.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
This is your morning show with Michael o'deil Charman.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
You can't have your morning show without your voice.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
This one might satisfy Red, who was on about a
seventeen minute rant off the air on this very same topic.
Morning Michael.
Speaker 5 (00:45):
If you remember the Bushes promised that NATO membership would
not happen with Ukraine, and then Biden turned the tables
and said it was non negotiable and that was the
red line for Pudin.
Speaker 4 (00:59):
And finally when.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
He sent Kamala Harris to Moscow.
Speaker 5 (01:01):
To visit with Pudin a few days later, this when
he invaded I believe that was the only way that
Trump was able to get him to the negotiating table.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
Yeah, I think you know. And I'm just going to
do recent as in the last couple of weeks history,
to freak out over Panama and we end up getting
free shipping, to freak out over Canada and Mexico and
you get billions of dollars and tens of thousands of
troops out of the border. I mean to the hostages
(01:32):
being released at some point. I don't know that we
want to be armchair quarterbacking Donald Trump when it comes
to negotiating. By the way, could I get my official
news sounder HYMS news time eight minutes after the hour,
I'm Lyle gains The three things you need to know
RFK will make it fifteen out of fifteen getting confirmed
(01:54):
at ten thirty Eastern Trump orchestrating the end of the
Russian Ukraine War and storms blanket a line from Colorado
to main have the theme ready again. That's the three
things you need to know, YMS News.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
I'm Lyle Gaines.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
I like that because I watch these cable channels and
their egos and they're wind up and delivery is so
over the top. It just doesn't match their ratings. And influence.
Maybe we just need a little more, you know, plitz
and glamour. Of course, I'm the guy that chooses to
have an economist that's also a theologian. Thank god for it.
(02:35):
Nine minutes after the hour, thanks for waking up with
your morning show. All right, well, tariffs are going into effect,
the effect if they stay in place on steel and
on construction, or ultimately even our ability to solve the
housing crisis. David Bonsen is our economist, and money was
joining us. David, that's my concern how this could all
play out and affect all the building we need to
(02:56):
do to increase housing inventory. Area of concern.
Speaker 6 (03:01):
It's not the biggest area when it I mean steel
and aluminum ore inputs, but they're less so than obviously
with housing things like lumber. It's aluminum is really used
in so many different elements of day to day life
that I don't think people even realize that.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
Here's the economic fact.
Speaker 6 (03:21):
Basically, our consumption of aluminum is about seventy times greater
than our production of aluminum, our domestic production, and so
the import you know, taxing imports on something that way
more people consume is just a transfer tax. You're basically
just saying we're going to subsidize American producers and we're
(03:44):
going to make American consumers pay for it.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
All right, So yesterday the left and they're in I
don't play left versus right, I play right versus wrong.
But it's obviously the politics is taking place, and the
left is choosing to play the obstruction card.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Whether it's our k, whether it's doze. You know, that's
all they're doing.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
So the narrative came forward on the egg that there
was a sense of blaming Donald Trump for the price
of eggs. Donald Trump has been president twenty one days.
These are prices of eggs over the last three hundred
the year. The year, so you're talking about Joe Biden
being president three hundred and forty of those days, donald
(04:25):
Trump twenty one of those days. But they're trying to
pin inflation and the economy now on Donald Trump and
he's only been there twenty one days. It begs this question,
can you imagine that?
Speaker 6 (04:34):
Can you imagine the horror of somebody doing that, trying
to blame the person who's president.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
So what's going on in the economy? What kind of
partisanship is that?
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Since the beginning of time. But here's the serious question.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
So the things that Donald Trump is doing, and I
think the things knowing you that you're liking, is whether
it's better trade deals, whether it's creating more things and
manufacturing or attracking manufacturers back to the United States. What
we need is to produce things that create jobs, produce
things in the economy. That's the ultimate I mean, yeah,
(05:08):
you can cut spending and that's good, more jobs, people
burden less with lower taxes, that's good for funded government
and lowering deficits. But ultimately we got to create some things.
How long before we see the things Donald Trump's doing
today translating to a better economy, Well, it's going to
be a while.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
I mean.
Speaker 6 (05:26):
The biggest thing they have to do that's going to
lead to producing more things as a tax reform, and
they haven't got to that yet. Keep in mind, I
do not believe it is true whatsoever that terarifing imports
produces more things. What it does is it punishes one
part of the economy while hurting another while helping another.
(05:47):
And so that is in the way we're going to
get an aggregate production increase. We're just going to switch
the distribution if they go forward with some of that,
which I don't believe that they will.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Right it could just be in a 'sotiating tactic. That's
how it's been playing out so far.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
Yeah, people talk about the steel and aluminum terrace in
twenty eighteen. He backed off of those after six months.
But when people say, well, that might cause us to
produce more steel and aluminum in America, that'd be a
good thing. The issue is that I just said, there's
seventy times more aluminum consumption. We have a significant amount
of people that import aluminum and then they have to
(06:24):
go make things with the imported aluminum and their production
goes down. Domestic people, their production goes down. It just
switches from one sector to another. The area I'm really
excited about is on deregulation, and I think that produces
more things. Is getting rid of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
I have a podcast that just went up today, my
(06:46):
weekly podcast, Capital Record, where I hammer the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau because of its complete total failure to actually
protect consumers. But see, this all gets down to production,
which is what you're asking me about. When you have
a financial system that is so overly regulated, it discourages
the flow of capital when you waste resources on just
(07:08):
absurd regulatory requirements and pacifying a bureaucracy that hurts production.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
So there's a lot of things he's doing and are
going to do.
Speaker 6 (07:18):
They're going to be beneficial there, but they take a
while to work through the system. But unfortunately, and this
is true of anybody, but it's particularly true a President Trump.
I've never believed that one hundred percent of his policies
are things I ought to be supporting. There's a lot
of there's so many great things going on, but then
there are other things that get in the way, and
you have to kind of net it all out economically.
But yeah, I mean the tax reform thing, Michael, I
(07:41):
can't say this enough. They cannot leave that thing unaddressed
because there is no possible way. Significant capital expenditures and
business decisions get.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Made when people grow and their uncertainty as to what's
going to be happening with the tax code.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Does it strike you as it's far off? I mean,
when I look at the list of things that could
be done by the end of thirty days, I'm not
so certain. We're waiting till June on these tax cuts.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Well, they can't get it done in thirty days. I
never thought they could. But what they don't have.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
Yet as we get close to thirty days is the
plan as to how they're going to get it. And
that's understandable because it is complicated, and this is not
Trump's fault.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
He's asked Congress, he's as the houses the.
Speaker 6 (08:23):
Senate to figure it out. And you have kind of
two different approaches within the legislative branch as to what
they think is best between one bill and two bills,
and there's pros and cons to each. But until they
get clarity as to what they're going to be able
to do with one bill, Secretary Beston encouraged me a
lot last week because he's demanding did they do this
(08:45):
with a policy baseline of the current policy? And what
that means, Michael is using what the current tax rates
are as your baseline for how it's going.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
To go forward.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
There's some that say, well, we think you're going to
get rid of the twenty seventeen tax cuts. We want
you to act as if those have come back in
the way you would assess the deficit. It's four trillion
dollars difference, and if they do that, then that means
they have four trillion dollars last of tax cuts they
can do over ten years.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
David Bonson with the Bonds and Financial Group, I think
I first was exposed to you had to be Fox Business, right,
is that the one you were always on? I think
it was Fox Business. I never keep track of the networks,
so you you're obviously an expert at following the market
as well. How does the market process this much change
this fast? And then when we start talking about like
(09:35):
negotiating styles, you know, the market couldn't react to the
Panama threat because that was resolved in a matter of
days with free shipping, and the Mexico and China was
resolved in less than two hours before it was even enacted. So,
but how does market follow these kinds of things and
(09:55):
react to these things or is it all built in
or they wait till they see how.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
It well, again, this is a theological answer.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
Markets are essentially the sum total of trillions of activities, transactions, thoughts,
assumptions coming from billions of people that were all made
by God with reason and rationality. And when you get
all these things factored in together, it moves at the
speed of light.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
And markets tend to price things very quickly.
Speaker 6 (10:23):
But markets also tend to not react to things that
they learn not to react to. So like when markets
were up one hundred and fifty points a Monday after
the aluminum steel terrafts, people said, what's going on here?
I said, markets don't take it seriously. Even if it
goes on, they think it's going to go away, and
so you lose, you know, markets lose their ability to
be moved by certain things after time, because markets are
(10:45):
really quite efficient that way. So yeah, there's a lot
to price in, but what markets can never price in
is what it doesn't know. You can't discount things that
are just simply unknowable. And there's a lot that's unknowable.
But there's also a lot that we do know. What
we do know is that corporate profits are growing. We
do know that unemployment is right around four percent, where
(11:06):
it's been a long time. You know what markets don't
usually move a lot by is political noise, right, you know,
So the idea that I look, I am a diehard,
lifetime Reaganite conservative who has never voted for a Democrat
in his life. But I spent a couple of years
just utterly amused by Republicans acting like every single price
move was Joe Biden's fault.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
But I also knew they didn't really believe it.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
Either they did because they became so part of sand
or they didn't believe it.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
But it's just part of the game.
Speaker 6 (11:35):
Yeah, idea that they're going to take, They're going to
take egg prices and put it on Trump.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Now that's the way the game is played. Sorry, that's
what happens.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
David Bonson Bonson Financial Group. Don't if you love our
visits weekly, you need to check out Capital Record Podcast.
Where would they they find that? Pretty much everywhere?
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Right, But yeah, it's all Apple, Spotify, all that. It's
hosted by National View. But David Bonson's Capital Record Podcast.
Speaker 7 (12:01):
You know what I do.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
It's only about twenty minutes an episode.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
I try to take a theological approach, a philosophical approach
to realize things happening in the economy. So I took
on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau today. I gave my
whole approach on RFK because I was I'm a big
opponent of a lot of what's gone on there, and
so I tried to talk about what we're supposed to
think about big pharma from a more first principles base,
(12:25):
and so those types of topics I cover week by
week and.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
It might be interesting.
Speaker 6 (12:30):
I was able to get it down about twenty minutes
an episode because people thought my three and a half
hour episodes.
Speaker 4 (12:38):
I can't get enough. If you love the weekly visits
like I do, you're gonna love David Bonson's Capital Record podcast.
Check it out everywhere great podcasts. Are you on iHeart?
We need to get you on iHeart if you're not,
and we'll talk again. Actually next Thursday, year off. We'll
talk in two weeks. I think I'll see you maybe
even between now and then. David Bonds are correct on
both counts. By the way, you never respond I said,
(12:58):
I warned you Italian. I'm a hugger. I love you.
This is a big deal for me to finally meet
you in person and thank you for being a part
of this show every week. If you're uncomfortable with hugs,
you better you better duck or run really fast, because
you're gonna get a big one match.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
I've been I've been around a while. I can handle
anything you got, person. We're gonna have a good lunch it's.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Going to make even better episodes together in the future.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
A I pray so all right, David Bonson, thank you
for your time.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
As always, it's your morning show with Michael Delcho.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
Can I do a more casual version of the news.
I just want to look around, you know we always
talk about at your morning show we bring America in
the world to you around our kitchen table. Just some things,
just to get it all in NASA's two stuck Astronauts.
The long and short of this, Maybe we're gonna be
able to shave a week or two off and get
Butch and Sunny back. They now have three kids together,
(13:52):
but they'll be back. But it ends up being only
if we're lucky. Well, they're looking more and more cozy
every day serious newscas. Do you remember how everybody would go, oh,
they're never gonna get heck set through too many scandals,
and they're gonna have a really possible getting RFK and
they're gonna have a real struggle with Telsey Gabbert. She
even shows up with one hundred and one dollmatians and
(14:14):
streaked hair. She through Donald Trump will go fifteen for
fifteen RFKSE confirmation will take place ten thirty eastern this morning.
Trump with a huge win in court. That's gonna allow
these buyouts to continue. That moves forward. First Dosh Committee
meeting was an absolute joke of obstruction. All the Democrats did.
(14:36):
Nobody's interested in waste, nobody's interested in corruption. Somebody one
hundred and fifty getting so let him have it. All
they could do was a referendum on Elon Musk. There's
a wonderful Oh, I can't do it right now, but
maybe I'll do it when we come back. I'm gonnadd
it to sounds of the day. It's gonna take you
back to Bill Clinton and Al Gore. There's nothing the
(14:58):
Doze is doing that they weren't doing all the way
back then. It just doesn't fit the lefts opposition narrative,
that's all. And we talk about playing this obstruction game
for the left. Out of all the things I thought
might go their way would be birthright citizenship. But we
get the latest rasmuson on that, and it's got fifty
(15:19):
three percent support for limiting birthright citizenship. In fact, the
strong on that was thirty three percent, which is the
same as the total that opposed. They keep standing against
Donald Trump on things. The American people stand firmly behind him.
The President is negotiating an end of the Russian Ukraine War.
(15:41):
Had long talks with both Zelenski and Putin yesterday and
things are looking good there. And we got a blanket
of winter weather from Colorado to main that's freaking havoc
on airline flights. That's what's happening Waking up this morning.
Speaker 8 (15:55):
Liza Kor the yard Boy and My morning show is
your Morning Show with a buddy, Michael del Jorno.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Hey, it's me Michael. Your Morning show is heard live
from five to eight am Central, six to nine am Eastern,
three to six am Pacific on great radio stations like
News Radio eleven ninety k EX in Portland, US Talk
five point fifty k FYI, and Phoenix, Arizona Freedom one
oh four seven in Washington, d C. We'd love to
have you join us live in the morning, even take
us along on the drive to work. But better late
(16:30):
than never. Enjoyed the podcast.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
Over one hundred million Americans are in the path of
intense with the winter weather, and it's wreaking havoc on
flights from Colorado to Maine and across the country in
terms of air travel, a federal judge allowing President Trump's
employee buy out plan to continue, and the president, although
red thought it was the released hostage, is welcoming the
Prime Minister of India to the White House today, always revealing,
(16:55):
frequently entertaining ladies and gentlemen. It's time for your sounds
of the day, everybody.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
I'm not sure.
Speaker 9 (17:02):
I don't think we should be taking the advice from
a group of people who can't define what a woman is.
That was just.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Complete local for Rocial.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
Okay, it's ridiculous to try to blame Donald Trump for
the price of eggs. He's only been in office twenty
one days. I grant you that. But political games are strange.
I always love when people do these old clips. There
were a lot of them on the border or people
like Bill Clinton would talk sensibly about being a sovereign
(17:37):
nation and securing the border in law and order and
a right way to enter the country. But oh, how
the narratives change. So now you have the left in
complete obstruction mode and against doge, as if they're all
for bureaucrats and they're all for corrupt spending and overspending.
You know, it hasn't always been the case with Democrats.
(18:01):
Here's Bill Clinton Al Gore on the White House lawn
in a flashback.
Speaker 10 (18:05):
This report tells us how to cut waste, cut red tape,
streamline the bureaucracy, change procurement rule, change the personnel rules,
and create a government that works better and costs less.
I've read it, and where it says the president should,
the president will.
Speaker 11 (18:25):
Among the eight hundred recommendations, elimiting twelve percent of the
federal workforce, merging some government.
Speaker 10 (18:30):
Agencies like the FBI, the DEA, and the Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco and Firearms, closing hundreds of government offices outside Washington.
Speaker 11 (18:38):
And the day I took off, one of the commitments
that I made of emergent people was that we would
do a better job here in Washington and rooting out
wasteful spending. We've thought that it was entirely appropriate for
our governments and our agencies to what.
Speaker 4 (18:55):
Are the Bill Clintons and the Barack Obamas making of
this new Democrat party? And keep in mind, Barack Obama
is one of those people that I mean, we know
Joe Biden was in president for four years. I think
it was John Podesta. There's a lot of people I
think it was Barack Obama when this is all said
and done and the Democrat Party doesn't even exist anymore.
(19:19):
I always brought it up this way. Think of the pendulum.
The pendulum swing from JFK to Teddy Kennedy, and that
was the same womb let alone JFK to Clinton to
Obama to whatever the heck this is today.
Speaker 12 (19:44):
Listen, our government, no matter who is in power, has
an obligation to write these wrongs, to provide reparations for
descendants of enslaved Africans, to eliminate the racial wealth gat
to uplift the black community. White supremacy is rampant in
this country. Got the current administration and our own legislative body.
Speaker 4 (20:03):
They have contributed to the social and.
Speaker 12 (20:05):
Economic harms, to racial terror black folks have experienced in
this country. Now more than ever, we must acknowledge and
repair those harms.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
That'd be your race card being played. My favorite was
Representative Presley. This goes well beyond not being able to
read her room. Do they even understand there was a
twenty twenty four election. She comes right out and says it,
(20:35):
let's just step out of the way and let her
have the floor. Yeah, gotta love the crazy left. They
don't hide. This may be the only time the Democrats
have been transparent in the last twenty one days.
Speaker 13 (20:44):
Listen, look, let me tell you something. I'll take a
bit of unrich here. I'll speak on behalf of my colleagues.
I thing I can say, we.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Are all willing to work.
Speaker 13 (20:52):
With anyone who's serious about doing the work of censoring
the American people and advancing progress.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Well that's the only way I know too, advanced progressivism.
Just center the American people. You know, there was a
time I think I kicked around. I know I kicked
around Tucker Carlson. I mean, who would be the White
(21:23):
House spokesperson? I thought Donald Trump. I knew that the
left would be obstruction, they would play the obstruction card.
And I knew Donald Trump was going to do a
lot fast, and I thought he's going to be fighting
battles daily. You got to put somebody in the White
House press room that can handle all this. Of course,
that turned out to be a joke. Right, it's Donald
(21:44):
Trump right in the Oval office. As I mentioned earlier,
you're just joining us. It's the ultimate visual. Donald Trump
has added a podium with the presidential seal to the
Oval Office. That's how many he's doing. Daily news conferences,
every executive order, every phone call, every meeting. The press
comes right into the Oval Office. He does it all
right in front of Now they've even put a podium
in there. We waited sixty three days for Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
To give a news conference. Donald Trump's doing them daily.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
He'll do another one today with the Prime Minister of India.
So I thought the battleground was going to be the
White House press room, and you better have somebody, you know,
that's not looking down at a book that can really
win these battles. And I remember I said that the
vag Ramaswami somebody like that. Don't it's not a throwaway.
Put your top gun in there, because that's where it's
(22:32):
going to be one and loss. Well, it turns out
he just brought it to the Oval Office. But if
you needed somebody really good in the White House press room,
I suspect we can all agree we found it.
Speaker 14 (22:43):
Listen, does Elon Musk have power of the presidency?
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Absolutely right.
Speaker 14 (22:48):
I asked that question, but asked that question because you know,
the Democrats have been hurling insults at Elon Muscat, hurling
attacks calling him President Musk. Most recently, Jamie Raskin, the Congressman,
took it a step further, calling for Musk's impeachment, saying
that you somehow you served the power of the presidency.
What's your response.
Speaker 15 (23:06):
It's utterly ridiculous. Elon Musk addressed this in the Oval
Office yesterday. The President addressed it as well. Elon Musk
is serving at the pleasure of the President, just like
everybody else on this team. He takes directives directly from
the President of the United States. And I think some
of the comments that you refer to are nothing more
than a failed attempt from the media and from Democrats
(23:27):
to try to sew division in this White House. We
saw them do it in the first term. We're not
going to let them do it in the second term.
This is a unified team who is working at the
pleasure of the President to do what's right for the
American people.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
And Paul after Paul would suggest the American people are
behind them, and only Left is coming right out and
saying they're here to censor the American people. You know,
for progress, always revealing, always entertaining, that's your sounds of the.
Speaker 11 (24:01):
Check.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
We will win.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
We will man early Mann, you just.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Pick doesn't make your own chell I hope.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
So this is your morning show with Michael del Chno.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
You only get thirty seconds. So you apologize and we
will forever want and we'll forever wonder who you thought
I was? All right? Winter storms across the United States
tougher Automa Biles even tougher on air travel.
Speaker 16 (24:45):
As of Wednesday evening, there were more than six thousand
delayed flights. Numbers from flight were also show more than
five hundred and fifty cancelations. Nearly one hundred million people
are feeling the effects of storms that have delivered several
inches of snow, bitter cold, and icy conditions. The weather
has also resulted in nearly one hundred and fifty thousand
customers without power in Virginia.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
I'm Mark Mayfield. The government shutdown with auto funding expires
in just over one month. Let the political games begin.
Speaker 7 (25:11):
Some Democrats are talking about using the threat of a
shutdown to push back against President Trump's cost cutting agenda.
Speaker 16 (25:18):
If Republicans need votes, they can come to us, and
we are happy to negotiate.
Speaker 7 (25:22):
California Congressman Pete Aguilar says this is no different from
any other year when the minority party tries to use
any leverage they can find, but he warned that any
shutdown would be the GOP's fault since they hold the
levers of power.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
How bad are things in the Democrat Party?
Speaker 4 (25:41):
The New York City Eric Adams is thinking about running
for reelection, only this time as a Republican.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Andrew Whitman has more.
Speaker 8 (25:48):
The Times reports Adams spoke with Mike Rendino, the chairman
of the Bronx Republican Party. Rendinos as Adams asked about
how he could run on the GOP line as he
seeks re election this year. Reports as Adams had also
considered paths that would let him run as a Republican
and a Democrat. The conversations timed with recent movement from
the Justice Department on Adams still pending corruption charges. The
(26:11):
Times also says Adams spoke with Manhattan GOP chair Andrea Katzametitis,
though it's not known if that talk was also election related.

Never mind the media, never mind all these angry Democrats
singing or screaming Cardi B's coming after trauma. Katie Young.
Speaker 17 (26:33):
Cardi said in a live stream on her Instagram this
week that her uncle, who was deported, should returned to
the United States to make up for her shoes. The
rapper said secret service made it hard for others to
get around at the Super Bowl. It appears she had
to get around the venue on foot. She showed the
camera as to lotto heel with a damaged red soul.
Cardi b has weighed in on politics over the years.
She was critical of former President Biden, but also appeared
(26:55):
at a rally in support of former Vice President Kamala
Harris during her presidential care i'ly said Taylor.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
As Dean Warmer, always said, fat, drunk and stupid is
no way to go through life, and ozempic gets it.
The popular diabetes weight loss drug actually helps reduce cravings
for liquor consumption.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
Mark Mayfield's back with that story.
Speaker 16 (27:16):
That's what the first clinical trial involving golp one drugs
is showing. According to research published in the journal Jamat Psychiatry,
The study, involving forty eight people with moderate alcohol use disorder,
demonstrated that people on low doses of ozempic for just
nine weeks drank significantly less than those on a placebo.
Researchers at the University of Southern California Institute or Addiction
Science conducted the study, and they believe that ozempic and
(27:38):
similar drugs like montjarro could be the future in treating
many of the thirty million Americans with alcohol use disorder.
Speaker 4 (27:45):
I'm Mark Mayfield. When we started this show, we had
one NBA team in our audience, the Oklahoma City Thunder.
What a difference a year in a couple of months makes.
Now I think we're in every NBA city and they
were all in action.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
The start.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
The Sneakers. Pistons won one twenty eight one ten over
the Bulls, Thunder beat the Heat by fourteen, Kings by.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
Eight over the Pals, Whiz lost to the Pacers.
Speaker 4 (28:11):
Calves blew out the Raptors one thirty one to one
oh eight, Bucks nipped the Wolves by two. Sons beat
the Rockets, Lakers fell to the Jazz Blazers, lost by
eleven to the Nuggets, grizz lost one twenty eight to
one fourteen to the Clippers, and finally to San Francisco,
we go the Warriors losing to the MAVs one eleven
to one oh seven. There is no NHL hockey. The
four nation face office on going through the weekend. It's US, Canada,
(28:34):
Suite and Finland against each other in a tournament. They'll
be playing the games in Montreal and Boston. Randy Moss
forty eight years old today, Genesis, Peter Gabriel seventy five
and if it's your birthday, Happy birthday, and we're so
glad you were born. The FBI says it's discovered twenty
four hundred new records associated with the assassination of John F.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Kennedy.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
There has been the appointee of a committee chair to
investigate JFK, RFK, MLKA assassinations, origins of COVID, even Jeffrey
Epstein's client list, whatever that might reveal. But Rory's here
to cover the documents concerning JFK. What do we think
it's going to be in here that we didn't already know?
Speaker 1 (29:12):
Rory?
Speaker 9 (29:13):
Probably not much, at least that's what the experts in
this field say. The twenty four hundred documents, they think
many of them will be duplicates, but they're you know,
they're open to see what's inside.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
Now.
Speaker 9 (29:24):
The FBI says they were able to find these documents
in large part because now they're computerized, they were much
tougher to track. They say, you know, when it was
in a filing cabinet on the sixth floor of some
office building in Dallas. Now that they've all been computerized,
it just takes a few mouse clicks in order to
turn this stuff up.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
They say.
Speaker 9 (29:43):
Now they've taken the twenty four hundred documents, turning them
over to the National Archives and Records Administration for a
de classification process. I'm curious to see what comes out
of them, whether or not it's still a lot of
black redactions on some.
Speaker 4 (29:59):
Of these documents. Notice I didn't interrupt, and you hit
all my questions the last two or the biggies. How
much of this is going to be duplication? How much
of this is still going to be redacted that needs
to be poured through? I think Cash Patel did an
interview with Glenn Beck that was very revealing, and in
that interview he admits he's seen all the documents, and
(30:19):
when Glenn pressed him, you know, are we going to
discover anything new? And he says, you know, pretty much
the American people aren't going to learn anything new. You
have all the information, it may change how clearly you
see it. And that made me think of the analogy
rory of well, we've had all these jigsaw puzzle pieces
in our hand, but we've never really put it together
(30:40):
and got a clear picture.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
Now, what does that translate to.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
Cuba's involvement, Russia's or the Soviet Union at the times involvement,
the mafia's involvement. I mean, these are all the big theories,
and then there's even been some pointing to the own
government that might have allowed it.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
But I just don't know.
Speaker 4 (30:56):
I don't know. I think we might I think going
to get a better clarification on exactly who Lee Harvey
Oswald was and wasn't.
Speaker 9 (31:04):
I think that some of the a lot of these
documents may be more related to what the CIA was
doing and how the CIA was involved with Oswald.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Should they have been more involved in that?
Speaker 9 (31:15):
You know, six weeks before the assassination, Oswald was in
Mexico City visiting a Soviet embassy. Did the CIA track him?
Did they alert the FBI when he returned? You know,
all those kinds of things might be in these documents.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
Well, you know, he all we know is what Oswald
was saying before he was shot by Ruby, which was
a bizarre twist everything, and that was that he was
a patsy.
Speaker 11 (31:39):
You know.
Speaker 4 (31:39):
The thing that doesn't match the sniff test for most
people is you don't defect to the Soviet Union, get
put up in a nice place, you know, not far
from the Kremlin, and then just leave and then just
re enter the country with no questions asked. That all
screams CIA agent. And then there was and this is
even in in the Warren report. You know, you have
(31:59):
that that issue where Oswald did send something to the
FBI shortly before the assassination that wasn't found in time.
He was at the FBI office. So it sure looks
like he was the informant infiltrating these groups. And that's
what to put him in a Soviet meeting in Cuba,
that's what to put him at the FBI before the assassinate.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (32:22):
I just don't know that we're going to get any
clear answers on any of this. I just know from
Cash Betel's read it's gonna be things we already know,
we just haven't quite pieced them together in the right way.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
It screams to me, all of the above is what
it screams is coming.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
Incremental incremental I missed that because Jeffrey was talking in
my ear.
Speaker 9 (32:42):
What did you say, Rory, I'd say incremental advancement with
the with the release of these twenty four hundred documents.
Speaker 4 (32:48):
Yeah, and we still have RFK to go. We still
have m LK to go, you know. And I don't
know that anybody's kicked around theories on either of those
two just assumed that were the two gunmen that were involved.
This will be fascinating, all right, twenty four hundred new
documents to peruse. How many will be duplicates, how many
will be redacted, Time will tell. But Roy O'Neil with
(33:09):
the final story. Thanks for joining us, Roy all right,
that's going to do it. This week's flying by let Alone, today, tomorrow,
Valentine's Day.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michael Openheld jow Now
Hey, it's Michael reminding you that your morning show can
be heard live each weekday morning five to eighth Central,
six to nine Eastern and great cities like Nashville, Tennessee, Tupelo, Mississippi,
and Sacramento, California. We'd love to be a part of
your morning routine and take the drive to work with you,
but better late than never. We're grateful you're here now.
Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Two three, starting your morning off right. A new way
of talk, a new way of understanding because we're in.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
This to building.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
This is your morning show with Michael o'deil Charman.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
You can't have your morning show without your voice.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
This one might satisfy Red, who was on about a
seventeen minute rant off the air on this very same topic.
Morning Michael.
Speaker 5 (00:45):
If you remember the Bushes promised that NATO membership would
not happen with Ukraine, and then Biden turned the tables
and said it was non negotiable and that was the
red line for Pudin.
Speaker 4 (00:59):
And finally when.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
He sent Kamala Harris to Moscow.
Speaker 5 (01:01):
To visit with Pudin a few days later, this when
he invaded I believe that was the only way that
Trump was able to get him to the negotiating table.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
Yeah, I think you know. And I'm just going to
do recent as in the last couple of weeks history,
to freak out over Panama and we end up getting
free shipping, to freak out over Canada and Mexico and
you get billions of dollars and tens of thousands of
troops out of the border. I mean to the hostages
(01:32):
being released at some point. I don't know that we
want to be armchair quarterbacking Donald Trump when it comes
to negotiating. By the way, could I get my official
news sounder HYMS news time eight minutes after the hour,
I'm Lyle gains The three things you need to know
RFK will make it fifteen out of fifteen getting confirmed
(01:54):
at ten thirty Eastern Trump orchestrating the end of the
Russian Ukraine War and storms blanket a line from Colorado
to main have the theme ready again. That's the three
things you need to know, YMS News.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
I'm Lyle Gaines.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
I like that because I watch these cable channels and
their egos and they're wind up and delivery is so
over the top. It just doesn't match their ratings. And influence.
Maybe we just need a little more, you know, plitz
and glamour. Of course, I'm the guy that chooses to
have an economist that's also a theologian. Thank god for it.
(02:35):
Nine minutes after the hour, thanks for waking up with
your morning show. All right, well, tariffs are going into effect,
the effect if they stay in place on steel and
on construction, or ultimately even our ability to solve the
housing crisis. David Bonsen is our economist, and money was
joining us. David, that's my concern how this could all
play out and affect all the building we need to
(02:56):
do to increase housing inventory. Area of concern.
Speaker 6 (03:01):
It's not the biggest area when it I mean steel
and aluminum ore inputs, but they're less so than obviously
with housing things like lumber. It's aluminum is really used
in so many different elements of day to day life
that I don't think people even realize that.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
Here's the economic fact.
Speaker 6 (03:21):
Basically, our consumption of aluminum is about seventy times greater
than our production of aluminum, our domestic production, and so
the import you know, taxing imports on something that way
more people consume is just a transfer tax. You're basically
just saying we're going to subsidize American producers and we're
(03:44):
going to make American consumers pay for it.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
All right, So yesterday the left and they're in I
don't play left versus right, I play right versus wrong.
But it's obviously the politics is taking place, and the
left is choosing to play the obstruction card.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Whether it's our k, whether it's doze. You know, that's
all they're doing.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
So the narrative came forward on the egg that there
was a sense of blaming Donald Trump for the price
of eggs. Donald Trump has been president twenty one days.
These are prices of eggs over the last three hundred
the year. The year, so you're talking about Joe Biden
being president three hundred and forty of those days, donald
(04:25):
Trump twenty one of those days. But they're trying to
pin inflation and the economy now on Donald Trump and
he's only been there twenty one days. It begs this question,
can you imagine that?
Speaker 6 (04:34):
Can you imagine the horror of somebody doing that, trying
to blame the person who's president.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
So what's going on in the economy? What kind of
partisanship is that?
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Since the beginning of time. But here's the serious question.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
So the things that Donald Trump is doing, and I
think the things knowing you that you're liking, is whether
it's better trade deals, whether it's creating more things and
manufacturing or attracking manufacturers back to the United States. What
we need is to produce things that create jobs, produce
things in the economy. That's the ultimate I mean, yeah,
(05:08):
you can cut spending and that's good, more jobs, people
burden less with lower taxes, that's good for funded government
and lowering deficits. But ultimately we got to create some things.
How long before we see the things Donald Trump's doing
today translating to a better economy, Well, it's going to
be a while.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
I mean.
Speaker 6 (05:26):
The biggest thing they have to do that's going to
lead to producing more things as a tax reform, and
they haven't got to that yet. Keep in mind, I
do not believe it is true whatsoever that terarifing imports
produces more things. What it does is it punishes one
part of the economy while hurting another while helping another.
(05:47):
And so that is in the way we're going to
get an aggregate production increase. We're just going to switch
the distribution if they go forward with some of that,
which I don't believe that they will.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Right it could just be in a 'sotiating tactic. That's
how it's been playing out so far.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
Yeah, people talk about the steel and aluminum terrace in
twenty eighteen. He backed off of those after six months.
But when people say, well, that might cause us to
produce more steel and aluminum in America, that'd be a
good thing. The issue is that I just said, there's
seventy times more aluminum consumption. We have a significant amount
of people that import aluminum and then they have to
(06:24):
go make things with the imported aluminum and their production
goes down. Domestic people, their production goes down. It just
switches from one sector to another. The area I'm really
excited about is on deregulation, and I think that produces
more things. Is getting rid of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
I have a podcast that just went up today, my
(06:46):
weekly podcast, Capital Record, where I hammer the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau because of its complete total failure to actually
protect consumers. But see, this all gets down to production,
which is what you're asking me about. When you have
a financial system that is so overly regulated, it discourages
the flow of capital when you waste resources on just
(07:08):
absurd regulatory requirements and pacifying a bureaucracy that hurts production.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
So there's a lot of things he's doing and are
going to do.
Speaker 6 (07:18):
They're going to be beneficial there, but they take a
while to work through the system. But unfortunately, and this
is true of anybody, but it's particularly true a President Trump.
I've never believed that one hundred percent of his policies
are things I ought to be supporting. There's a lot
of there's so many great things going on, but then
there are other things that get in the way, and
you have to kind of net it all out economically.
But yeah, I mean the tax reform thing, Michael, I
(07:41):
can't say this enough. They cannot leave that thing unaddressed
because there is no possible way. Significant capital expenditures and
business decisions get.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Made when people grow and their uncertainty as to what's
going to be happening with the tax code.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Does it strike you as it's far off? I mean,
when I look at the list of things that could
be done by the end of thirty days, I'm not
so certain. We're waiting till June on these tax cuts.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Well, they can't get it done in thirty days. I
never thought they could. But what they don't have.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
Yet as we get close to thirty days is the
plan as to how they're going to get it. And
that's understandable because it is complicated, and this is not
Trump's fault.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
He's asked Congress, he's as the houses the.
Speaker 6 (08:23):
Senate to figure it out. And you have kind of
two different approaches within the legislative branch as to what
they think is best between one bill and two bills,
and there's pros and cons to each. But until they
get clarity as to what they're going to be able
to do with one bill, Secretary Beston encouraged me a
lot last week because he's demanding did they do this
(08:45):
with a policy baseline of the current policy? And what
that means, Michael is using what the current tax rates
are as your baseline for how it's going.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
To go forward.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
There's some that say, well, we think you're going to
get rid of the twenty seventeen tax cuts. We want
you to act as if those have come back in
the way you would assess the deficit. It's four trillion
dollars difference, and if they do that, then that means
they have four trillion dollars last of tax cuts they
can do over ten years.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
David Bonson with the Bonds and Financial Group, I think
I first was exposed to you had to be Fox Business, right,
is that the one you were always on? I think
it was Fox Business. I never keep track of the networks,
so you you're obviously an expert at following the market
as well. How does the market process this much change
this fast? And then when we start talking about like
(09:35):
negotiating styles, you know, the market couldn't react to the
Panama threat because that was resolved in a matter of
days with free shipping, and the Mexico and China was
resolved in less than two hours before it was even enacted. So,
but how does market follow these kinds of things and
(09:55):
react to these things or is it all built in
or they wait till they see how.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
It well, again, this is a theological answer.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
Markets are essentially the sum total of trillions of activities, transactions, thoughts,
assumptions coming from billions of people that were all made
by God with reason and rationality. And when you get
all these things factored in together, it moves at the
speed of light.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
And markets tend to price things very quickly.
Speaker 6 (10:23):
But markets also tend to not react to things that
they learn not to react to. So like when markets
were up one hundred and fifty points a Monday after
the aluminum steel terrafts, people said, what's going on here?
I said, markets don't take it seriously. Even if it
goes on, they think it's going to go away, and
so you lose, you know, markets lose their ability to
be moved by certain things after time, because markets are
(10:45):
really quite efficient that way. So yeah, there's a lot
to price in, but what markets can never price in
is what it doesn't know. You can't discount things that
are just simply unknowable. And there's a lot that's unknowable.
But there's also a lot that we do know. What
we do know is that corporate profits are growing. We
do know that unemployment is right around four percent, where
(11:06):
it's been a long time. You know what markets don't
usually move a lot by is political noise, right, you know,
So the idea that I look, I am a diehard,
lifetime Reaganite conservative who has never voted for a Democrat
in his life. But I spent a couple of years
just utterly amused by Republicans acting like every single price
move was Joe Biden's fault.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
But I also knew they didn't really believe it.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
Either they did because they became so part of sand
or they didn't believe it.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
But it's just part of the game.
Speaker 6 (11:35):
Yeah, idea that they're going to take, They're going to
take egg prices and put it on Trump.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Now that's the way the game is played. Sorry, that's
what happens.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
David Bonson Bonson Financial Group. Don't if you love our
visits weekly, you need to check out Capital Record Podcast.
Where would they they find that? Pretty much everywhere?
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Right, But yeah, it's all Apple, Spotify, all that. It's
hosted by National View. But David Bonson's Capital Record Podcast.
Speaker 7 (12:01):
You know what I do.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
It's only about twenty minutes an episode.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
I try to take a theological approach, a philosophical approach
to realize things happening in the economy. So I took
on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau today. I gave my
whole approach on RFK because I was I'm a big
opponent of a lot of what's gone on there, and
so I tried to talk about what we're supposed to
think about big pharma from a more first principles base,
(12:25):
and so those types of topics I cover week by
week and.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
It might be interesting.
Speaker 6 (12:30):
I was able to get it down about twenty minutes
an episode because people thought my three and a half
hour episodes.
Speaker 4 (12:38):
I can't get enough. If you love the weekly visits
like I do, you're gonna love David Bonson's Capital Record podcast.
Check it out everywhere great podcasts. Are you on iHeart?
We need to get you on iHeart if you're not,
and we'll talk again. Actually next Thursday, year off. We'll
talk in two weeks. I think I'll see you maybe
even between now and then. David Bonds are correct on
both counts. By the way, you never respond I said,
(12:58):
I warned you Italian. I'm a hugger. I love you.
This is a big deal for me to finally meet
you in person and thank you for being a part
of this show every week. If you're uncomfortable with hugs,
you better you better duck or run really fast, because
you're gonna get a big one match.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
I've been I've been around a while. I can handle
anything you got, person. We're gonna have a good lunch it's.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Going to make even better episodes together in the future.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
A I pray so all right, David Bonson, thank you
for your time.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
As always, it's your morning show with Michael Delcho.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
Can I do a more casual version of the news.
I just want to look around, you know we always
talk about at your morning show we bring America in
the world to you around our kitchen table. Just some things,
just to get it all in NASA's two stuck Astronauts.
The long and short of this, Maybe we're gonna be
able to shave a week or two off and get
Butch and Sunny back. They now have three kids together,
(13:52):
but they'll be back. But it ends up being only
if we're lucky. Well, they're looking more and more cozy
every day serious newscas. Do you remember how everybody would go, oh,
they're never gonna get heck set through too many scandals,
and they're gonna have a really possible getting RFK and
they're gonna have a real struggle with Telsey Gabbert. She
even shows up with one hundred and one dollmatians and
(14:14):
streaked hair. She through Donald Trump will go fifteen for
fifteen RFKSE confirmation will take place ten thirty eastern this morning.
Trump with a huge win in court. That's gonna allow
these buyouts to continue. That moves forward. First Dosh Committee
meeting was an absolute joke of obstruction. All the Democrats did.
(14:36):
Nobody's interested in waste, nobody's interested in corruption. Somebody one
hundred and fifty getting so let him have it. All
they could do was a referendum on Elon Musk. There's
a wonderful Oh, I can't do it right now, but
maybe I'll do it when we come back. I'm gonnadd
it to sounds of the day. It's gonna take you
back to Bill Clinton and Al Gore. There's nothing the
(14:58):
Doze is doing that they weren't doing all the way
back then. It just doesn't fit the lefts opposition narrative,
that's all. And we talk about playing this obstruction game
for the left. Out of all the things I thought
might go their way would be birthright citizenship. But we
get the latest rasmuson on that, and it's got fifty
(15:19):
three percent support for limiting birthright citizenship. In fact, the
strong on that was thirty three percent, which is the
same as the total that opposed. They keep standing against
Donald Trump on things. The American people stand firmly behind him.
The President is negotiating an end of the Russian Ukraine War.
(15:41):
Had long talks with both Zelenski and Putin yesterday and
things are looking good there. And we got a blanket
of winter weather from Colorado to main that's freaking havoc

of the day, everybody.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
I'm not sure.
Speaker 9 (17:02):
I don't think we should be taking the advice from
a group of people who can't define what a woman is.
That was just.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Complete local for Rocial.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
Okay, it's ridiculous to try to blame Donald Trump for
the price of eggs. He's only been in office twenty
one days. I grant you that. But political games are strange.
I always love when people do these old clips. There
were a lot of them on the border or people
like Bill Clinton would talk sensibly about being a sovereign
(17:37):
nation and securing the border in law and order and
a right way to enter the country. But oh, how
the narratives change. So now you have the left in
complete obstruction mode and against doge, as if they're all
for bureaucrats and they're all for corrupt spending and overspending.
You know, it hasn't always been the case with Democrats.
(18:01):
Here's Bill Clinton Al Gore on the White House lawn
in a flashback.
Speaker 10 (18:05):
This report tells us how to cut waste, cut red tape,
streamline the bureaucracy, change procurement rule, change the personnel rules,
and create a government that works better and costs less.
I've read it, and where it says the president should,
the president will.
Speaker 11 (18:25):
Among the eight hundred recommendations, elimiting twelve percent of the
federal workforce, merging some government.
Speaker 10 (18:30):
Agencies like the FBI, the DEA, and the Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco and Firearms, closing hundreds of government offices outside Washington.
Speaker 11 (18:38):
And the day I took off, one of the commitments
that I made of emergent people was that we would
do a better job here in Washington and rooting out
wasteful spending. We've thought that it was entirely appropriate for
our governments and our agencies to what.
Speaker 4 (18:55):
Are the Bill Clintons and the Barack Obamas making of
this new Democrat party? And keep in mind, Barack Obama
is one of those people that I mean, we know
Joe Biden was in president for four years. I think
it was John Podesta. There's a lot of people I
think it was Barack Obama when this is all said
and done and the Democrat Party doesn't even exist anymore.
(19:19):
I always brought it up this way. Think of the pendulum.
The pendulum swing from JFK to Teddy Kennedy, and that
was the same womb let alone JFK to Clinton to
Obama to whatever the heck this is today.
Speaker 12 (19:44):
Listen, our government, no matter who is in power, has
an obligation to write these wrongs, to provide reparations for
descendants of enslaved Africans, to eliminate the racial wealth gat
to uplift the black community. White supremacy is rampant in
this country. Got the current administration and our own legislative body.
Speaker 4 (20:03):
They have contributed to the social and.
Speaker 12 (20:05):
Economic harms, to racial terror black folks have experienced in
this country. Now more than ever, we must acknowledge and
repair those harms.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
That'd be your race card being played. My favorite was
Representative Presley. This goes well beyond not being able to
read her room. Do they even understand there was a
twenty twenty four election. She comes right out and says it,
(20:35):
let's just step out of the way and let her
have the floor. Yeah, gotta love the crazy left. They
don't hide. This may be the only time the Democrats
have been transparent in the last twenty one days.
Speaker 13 (20:44):
Listen, look, let me tell you something. I'll take a
bit of unrich here. I'll speak on behalf of my colleagues.
I thing I can say, we.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Are all willing to work.
Speaker 13 (20:52):
With anyone who's serious about doing the work of censoring
the American people and advancing progress.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Well that's the only way I know too, advanced progressivism.
Just center the American people. You know, there was a
time I think I kicked around. I know I kicked
around Tucker Carlson. I mean, who would be the White
(21:23):
House spokesperson? I thought Donald Trump. I knew that the
left would be obstruction, they would play the obstruction card.
And I knew Donald Trump was going to do a
lot fast, and I thought he's going to be fighting
battles daily. You got to put somebody in the White
House press room that can handle all this. Of course,
that turned out to be a joke. Right, it's Donald
(21:44):
Trump right in the Oval office. As I mentioned earlier,
you're just joining us. It's the ultimate visual. Donald Trump
has added a podium with the presidential seal to the
Oval Office. That's how many he's doing. Daily news conferences,
every executive order, every phone call, every meeting. The press
comes right into the Oval Office. He does it all
right in front of Now they've even put a podium
in there. We waited sixty three days for Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
To give a news conference. Donald Trump's doing them daily.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
He'll do another one today with the Prime Minister of India.
So I thought the battleground was going to be the
White House press room, and you better have somebody, you know,
that's not looking down at a book that can really
win these battles. And I remember I said that the
vag Ramaswami somebody like that. Don't it's not a throwaway.
Put your top gun in there, because that's where it's
(22:32):
going to be one and loss. Well, it turns out
he just brought it to the Oval Office. But if
you needed somebody really good in the White House press room,
I suspect we can all agree we found it.
Speaker 14 (22:43):
Listen, does Elon Musk have power of the presidency?
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Absolutely right.
Speaker 14 (22:48):
I asked that question, but asked that question because you know,
the Democrats have been hurling insults at Elon Muscat, hurling
attacks calling him President Musk. Most recently, Jamie Raskin, the Congressman,
took it a step further, calling for Musk's impeachment, saying
that you somehow you served the power of the presidency.
What's your response.
Speaker 15 (23:06):
It's utterly ridiculous. Elon Musk addressed this in the Oval
Office yesterday. The President addressed it as well. Elon Musk
is serving at the pleasure of the President, just like
everybody else on this team. He takes directives directly from
the President of the United States. And I think some
of the comments that you refer to are nothing more
than a failed attempt from the media and from Democrats
(23:27):
to try to sew division in this White House. We
saw them do it in the first term. We're not
going to let them do it in the second term.
This is a unified team who is working at the
pleasure of the President to do what's right for the
American people.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
And Paul after Paul would suggest the American people are
behind them, and only Left is coming right out and
saying they're here to censor the American people. You know,
for progress, always revealing, always entertaining, that's your sounds of the.
Speaker 11 (24:01):
Check.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
We will win.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
We will man early Mann, you just.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Pick doesn't make your own chell I hope.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
So this is your morning show with Michael del Chno.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
You only get thirty seconds. So you apologize and we
will forever want and we'll forever wonder who you thought
I was? All right? Winter storms across the United States
tougher Automa Biles even tougher on air travel.
Speaker 16 (24:45):
As of Wednesday evening, there were more than six thousand
delayed flights. Numbers from flight were also show more than
five hundred and fifty cancelations. Nearly one hundred million people
are feeling the effects of storms that have delivered several
inches of snow, bitter cold, and icy conditions. The weather
has also resulted in nearly one hundred and fifty thousand
customers without power in Virginia.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
I'm Mark Mayfield. The government shutdown with auto funding expires
in just over one month. Let the political games begin.
Speaker 7 (25:11):
Some Democrats are talking about using the threat of a
shutdown to push back against President Trump's cost cutting agenda.
Speaker 16 (25:18):
If Republicans need votes, they can come to us, and
we are happy to negotiate.
Speaker 7 (25:22):
California Congressman Pete Aguilar says this is no different from
any other year when the minority party tries to use
any leverage they can find, but he warned that any
shutdown would be the GOP's fault since they hold the
levers of power.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
How bad are things in the Democrat Party?
Speaker 4 (25:41):
The New York City Eric Adams is thinking about running
for reelection, only this time as a Republican.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Andrew Whitman has more.
Speaker 8 (25:48):
The Times reports Adams spoke with Mike Rendino, the chairman
of the Bronx Republican Party. Rendinos as Adams asked about
how he could run on the GOP line as he
seeks re election this year. Reports as Adams had also
considered paths that would let him run as a Republican
and a Democrat. The conversations timed with recent movement from
the Justice Department on Adams still pending corruption charges. The
(26:11):
Times also says Adams spoke with Manhattan GOP chair Andrea Katzametitis,
though it's not known if that talk was also election related.
Andrew Whitman NBC News Radio New York.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
Never mind the media, never mind all these angry Democrats
singing or screaming Cardi B's coming after trauma. Katie Young.
Speaker 17 (26:33):
Cardi said in a live stream on her Instagram this
week that her uncle, who was deported, should returned to
the United States to make up for her shoes. The
rapper said secret service made it hard for others to
get around at the Super Bowl. It appears she had
to get around the venue on foot. She showed the
camera as to lotto heel with a damaged red soul.
Cardi b has weighed in on politics over the years.
She was critical of former President Biden, but also appeared
(26:55):
at a rally in support of former Vice President Kamala
Harris during her presidential care i'ly said Taylor.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
As Dean Warmer, always said, fat, drunk and stupid is
no way to go through life, and ozempic gets it.
The popular diabetes weight loss drug actually helps reduce cravings
for liquor consumption.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
Mark Mayfield's back with that story.
Speaker 16 (27:16):
That's what the first clinical trial involving golp one drugs
is showing. According to research published in the journal Jamat Psychiatry,
The study, involving forty eight people with moderate alcohol use disorder,
demonstrated that people on low doses of ozempic for just
nine weeks drank significantly less than those on a placebo.
Researchers at the University of Southern California Institute or Addiction
Science conducted the study, and they believe that ozempic and
(27:38):
similar drugs like montjarro could be the future in treating
many of the thirty million Americans with alcohol use disorder.
Speaker 4 (27:45):
I'm Mark Mayfield. When we started this show, we had
one NBA team in our audience, the Oklahoma City Thunder.
What a difference a year in a couple of months makes.
Now I think we're in every NBA city and they
were all in action.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
The start.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
The Sneakers. Pistons won one twenty eight one ten over
the Bulls, Thunder beat the Heat by fourteen, Kings by.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
Eight over the Pals, Whiz lost to the Pacers.
Speaker 4 (28:11):
Calves blew out the Raptors one thirty one to one
oh eight, Bucks nipped the Wolves by two. Sons beat
the Rockets, Lakers fell to the Jazz Blazers, lost by
eleven to the Nuggets, grizz lost one twenty eight to
one fourteen to the Clippers, and finally to San Francisco,
we go the Warriors losing to the MAVs one eleven
to one oh seven. There is no NHL hockey. The
four nation face office on going through the weekend. It's US, Canada,
(28:34):
Suite and Finland against each other in a tournament. They'll
be playing the games in Montreal and Boston. Randy Moss
forty eight years old today, Genesis, Peter Gabriel seventy five
and if it's your birthday, Happy birthday, and we're so
glad you were born. The FBI says it's discovered twenty
four hundred new records associated with the assassination of John F.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Kennedy.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
There has been the appointee of a committee chair to
investigate JFK, RFK, MLKA assassinations, origins of COVID, even Jeffrey
Epstein's client list, whatever that might reveal. But Rory's here
to cover the documents concerning JFK. What do we think
it's going to be in here that we didn't already know?
Speaker 1 (29:12):
Rory?
Speaker 9 (29:13):
Probably not much, at least that's what the experts in
this field say. The twenty four hundred documents, they think
many of them will be duplicates, but they're you know,
they're open to see what's inside.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
Now.
Speaker 9 (29:24):
The FBI says they were able to find these documents
in large part because now they're computerized, they were much
tougher to track. They say, you know, when it was
in a filing cabinet on the sixth floor of some
office building in Dallas. Now that they've all been computerized,
it just takes a few mouse clicks in order to
turn this stuff up.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
They say.
Speaker 9 (29:43):
Now they've taken the twenty four hundred documents, turning them
over to the National Archives and Records Administration for a
de classification process. I'm curious to see what comes out
of them, whether or not it's still a lot of
black redactions on some.
Speaker 4 (29:59):
Of these documents. Notice I didn't interrupt, and you hit
all my questions the last two or the biggies. How
much of this is going to be duplication? How much
of this is still going to be redacted that needs
to be poured through? I think Cash Patel did an
interview with Glenn Beck that was very revealing, and in
that interview he admits he's seen all the documents, and
(30:19):
when Glenn pressed him, you know, are we going to
discover anything new? And he says, you know, pretty much
the American people aren't going to learn anything new. You
have all the information, it may change how clearly you
see it. And that made me think of the analogy
rory of well, we've had all these jigsaw puzzle pieces
in our hand, but we've never really put it together
(30:40):
and got a clear picture.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
Now, what does that translate to.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
Cuba's involvement, Russia's or the Soviet Union at the times involvement,
the mafia's involvement. I mean, these are all the big theories,
and then there's even been some pointing to the own
government that might have allowed it.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
But I just don't know.
Speaker 4 (30:56):
I don't know. I think we might I think going
to get a better clarification on exactly who Lee Harvey
Oswald was and wasn't.
Speaker 9 (31:04):
I think that some of the a lot of these
documents may be more related to what the CIA was
doing and how the CIA was involved with Oswald.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Should they have been more involved in that?
Speaker 9 (31:15):
You know, six weeks before the assassination, Oswald was in
Mexico City visiting a Soviet embassy. Did the CIA track him?
Did they alert the FBI when he returned? You know,
all those kinds of things might be in these documents.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
Well, you know, he all we know is what Oswald
was saying before he was shot by Ruby, which was
a bizarre twist everything, and that was that he was
a patsy.
Speaker 11 (31:39):
You know.
Speaker 4 (31:39):
The thing that doesn't match the sniff test for most
people is you don't defect to the Soviet Union, get
put up in a nice place, you know, not far
from the Kremlin, and then just leave and then just
re enter the country with no questions asked. That all
screams CIA agent. And then there was and this is
even in in the Warren report. You know, you have
(31:59):
that that issue where Oswald did send something to the
FBI shortly before the assassination that wasn't found in time.
He was at the FBI office. So it sure looks
like he was the informant infiltrating these groups. And that's
what to put him in a Soviet meeting in Cuba,
that's what to put him at the FBI before the assassinate.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (32:22):
I just don't know that we're going to get any
clear answers on any of this. I just know from
Cash Betel's read it's gonna be things we already know,
we just haven't quite pieced them together in the right way.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
It screams to me, all of the above is what
it screams is coming.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
Incremental incremental I missed that because Jeffrey was talking in
my ear.
Speaker 9 (32:42):
What did you say, Rory, I'd say incremental advancement with
the with the release of these twenty four hundred documents.
Speaker 4 (32:48):
Yeah, and we still have RFK to go. We still
have m LK to go, you know. And I don't
know that anybody's kicked around theories on either of those
two just assumed that were the two gunmen that were involved.
This will be fascinating, all right, twenty four hundred new
documents to peruse. How many will be duplicates, how many
will be redacted, Time will tell. But Roy O'Neil with
(33:09):
the final story. Thanks for joining us, Roy all right,
that's going to do it. This week's flying by let Alone, today, tomorrow,
Valentine's Day.
