What is the happiest city in America – and how does YOUR town stack up? National Correspondent RORY O’NEILL has the results of a new national survey on where people are the most (and least) happy.
Always revealing, often entertaining: it’s your Sounds of The Day!
Five years ago, White House Correspondent JON DECKER broke the story that President Trump had been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Decker has spoken with the member of the Norwegian parliament who recommended him then – and will explain his feelings in light of recent developments in the war between Russia and Ukraine.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's me Michael. Your morning show has heard live
from five to eight am Central, six to nine am Eastern,
three to six am Pacific on great radio stations like
News Radio eleven ninety k EX in Portland, News Talk
five 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
(00:22):
than never.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Enjoy the podcast on two three starting your morning off right.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
A new way of talk, a new way of understanding,
because we're in this together.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
This is your morning show with Michael del Chorino. It's
hot for the morning to you seven minutes after the hour.
Welcome to Wednesday, March, the twelfth year of Our Lord,
twenty twenty five. We got one chance to live this day.
Don't drift through it. Live it, make a difference in
someone's life, Cherish your own, and let's start the journey
(00:55):
of morning understanding.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Shall we.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
The House has passed a six month funding bill to
prevent the government shut down. Now it'll be a little
a little heavier lifting in the Senate, but we're halfway there.
To the latest impossible Ukraine is agreeing to a thirty
day seas fire. I thought, after what we saw at
the Oval Office, our relationship with Ukraine was shot forever, right,
(01:17):
Isn't that why the senator from Arizona went there thirty
day seas fire's side. Marco did it in Saudi Rabia.
Now it's on to get Russia at the table. And
the premiere of Ontario that was threatening all of those
imposed tariffs on electricity, he hated to do it to
the United States because he loves the United States. Now
he's apologizing and the tariffs areround hold. And this one's
a struggle for me for many reasons, not the least
(01:41):
of which is Nashville. I don't have to tell all
of you listening the show originates from just outside of Nashville,
in a bunker in an undisclosed porta potty in Williamson County.
But everybody from all over the country to the point
(02:01):
where you just have to warn people on the air
stop inviting anybody from visiting. We don't want anybody else
living here. Welcome to Nashville. You're invaded by California to
the point where my home value was tripled. I'm supposed
to believe, according to this report, that Nashville is one
hundred and eighteenth behind Chicago at ninety third, the murder
capital of the world. And that I think seven of
(02:23):
the ten happiest places to live in America are all
in California. That they keep invading my state from roy
O'Neill is here. Where is the happiest place in America?
And can we trust these numbers? Well, yeah, I don't know,
but they're fun to talk about. Right by the way,
I got me have a bit of a flashback. My
first paying radio job was inside a renovated chicken coop.
(02:45):
You're kidding in Hope Valley, Rhode Island, where six foot
six me you can only stand up straight and have
the building. Why were they in a chicken coop because
that was in the owner's backyard. See, I'm so glad
I never my first radio market was the thirty fifth market.
I never had to do small mark. I mean, part
of me is jealous of people because the stories are great.
(03:06):
Like my brother was down on the Bayou in Louisiana.
He started in Thibadeau or no, he's starting Golden Meadow.
But I never had any of that but that would
be fun broadcasting from a college it was still in college.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Yeah, those are good times.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
All right.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Happiest cities A lot of them are in the Bay area.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
Yeah, Fremont, California, San Jose or Irvine, Sioux Falls. South
Dakota steaks in there at number four, and Overland Park,
Kansas comes in at number five. Lincoln, Nebraska another one
there in the midwest at sixth, Madison, Wisconsin seven. Then
you get back down to the west, Scottsdale and San
Francisco and.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Huntington Beach all there in your top ten.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
That's a lot of California, though, it is a lot
of California, and sorry, Cleveland, Ohio.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
They are the guardians of last place. Really, And you
know what, if I ever left Nashville, it's either going
to be Connecticut, Maine, or Cleveland. Those are three areas.
I just I love ocean crashing against rock, so that's
the other two. But I would live in Cleveland. I
completely disagree there. But they're doing it based on salaries.
Although seventy thousand dollars in the San Francisco Bay areas
(04:12):
it sounds great, it's not much yeah at all. By
the way, did you ever look up Did you ever
look up Fremont? U? No, not particularly? How do you mean?
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Well?
Speaker 2 (04:22):
I was looking at pictures. It looks really nice. It
looks like the city they used an outbreak, Remember when
they were going to drop the bomb to kill the virus.
That quaint little city. That's what it looks like. I
wonder if they filmed it there. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Fremont, for folks that don't know, is around San Francisco Bay.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
It's in that general area. I mean, it's like a
quaint little place. But all right, which you out of
all of those if you had to go, where would
you go?
Speaker 5 (04:46):
I'd probably aim for San Diego somewhere, and I don't
think that was on my list.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Had an uncle in San Jose, Yeah, Irvine.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
I know.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
My problem is I don't know the way to San Jos.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
Madison was, Yeah, Madison was gone. Wouldn't be bad at Scottsdale. No,
I'd be too close to the Boss. No thanks, I.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Was just thinking about going to see him and playing
a little golf. I like the Boss. Make a note
all those tracking the Chris Berry studio here at the
Bill May Broadcast Center that Rory doesn't want to go
to Scottsdale. Well, unfortunately for both of us. The real
list that counts is where everybody has been moving in
at your state mine. But Rory will be back right
(05:25):
a little bit later. Actually, last in the show, we
always give the final story to Rory on the two
American astronauts whose hair in space looks similar to mine
here on Earth. We'll do that more with Rory coming up.
All right, if you're just waking up twelve minutes after
the hour, we have this theme, and this theme is
(05:46):
narratives keep dying of reality. And look, I will admit
this is like, first of all, I don't worship Donald Trump.
I pray for him every day. I thank God for
him every day, and not rooting for his presidency because
(06:07):
I'm in the car with him. As an American, why
would you root against your president, root against your country
and your own reality. I really genuinely align with his visions.
Now I don't always I wouldn't always say it the
way he says it or do it the way he
would do it. But that's why He's probably going to
go down as the most effective president in history, and
I'm going to go down as a fledgling talk show host,
(06:31):
but it's a different presidency. So and let me do
it in this wording. If we were going to sit
and have a conversation. And I have some favorite presidents,
George Washington, John F. Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, and quite frankly,
Donald Trump will be one of my favorite presidents. There
were things about George Bush I really loved, and there
were things about George W. Bush I really disagreed with. So,
(06:55):
but that would kind of round out, you know, some
of my thoughts. Trump's different than all of them. You
just can't on a daily basis. And I'll give you
an example. Yesterday I was thinking, how can this great
president be even greater? Well, one, we got a midterm election,
and while I see where he's going in the art
of the deal. In other words, the tariffs aren't the destination.
(07:17):
They're the tool to get to the destination. But if
they become a destination, ultimately we would win, which is
why it's a great negotiating tool. But I think, you know,
this whole game of temporary pain for permanent solution that
could bite you in the button the midterm and the
Democrats are honed in what they see is two vulnerabilities
(07:40):
ending the war in Ukraine and the economy, take it
off the table. Just get on a plane, go to
Canada and end this deal, and I'd be wrong again.
So we wake up this morning and just as the
media got through telling you, well, yeah, maybe Donald Trump
(08:02):
picks the border, but he's really screwed things up with
the economy, and this tariff war is really gonna bite
him where it really counts automobiles, ultimately housing, because you're
not gonna have any wood. And you see what the
premiere Ford did in Canada. This guy loves America, hates
to do it, but he's gonna shaft everybody in the
(08:24):
Great Lakes and their electricity. And then you wake up
this morning and the premiere apologizes and puts all these
tariff talks on hold, and he's at the table ready
to forge a trade agreement. And you're like, boy, I
(08:44):
was stupid to worry yesterday. You know what, maybe the
stock marker will bounce back today. Yeah, I mean, at
some point, when are we gonna get it? There's just
something about this guy, and even when he does things
in a way you wouldn't do it, even though ultimately
he's doing the right thing, he's right, and you're wrong again,
(09:08):
and that's just the trade, and that's just Ukraine. I
love too, because this is probably where the left is
going to go next. I can already see it and
putting together top five stories for you. You know, the subtle
wording like President Trump is gutting the Department of Education.
(09:29):
You know, it makes you think of you know, just
shot a little baby deer and now you're gutting it
in the forest and drinking its blood. And you know,
I look at it and it's a matrix issue politically, culturally,
and the matrix issue is half of the over half
(09:49):
the country I think is going to look at it
and going, well, there's a promise made, promise kept, very
very vintage Donald Trump. And then the other side is going
to tell you think the education the topic go to hell?
Then this guy's out of control. And then I'm just
like in the middle and saying, all right, if you
put the matrix narratives aside, how well do you think
(10:13):
the Department of Education at the federal level has been.
It didn't even exist until Jimmy Carter and I was
a sophomore. Oh my god, how did I get educated
through my sophomore year without a federal government involvement, and
(10:33):
then I would just beg you, We'll go back and
look at the report card since nineteen seventy nine. Are
our kids educated more or less? Are they more prepared
for higher education or less prepared? Are they smarter or dumber?
I can tell you this, They've been indoctrinated and socialized
(10:57):
quite effectively educated. You'd have a hard time making that case.
And then you just stop and you think to yourself,
I think the average American makes more effort and studies
the quality and results of vehicles and refrigerators more than
(11:21):
the education of our children and the preparation for citizenry,
higher education, and leadership in the world. Because if you
looked at the Department of Education in Washington, DC, the
way you compare a Samsung refrigerator to a whirldpool, it'd
be an obvious choice for you. It's just bureaucracy, control,
(11:45):
and agenda, nothing that has anything to do with preparing
your kids for life, college or citizenry. And the numbers
speak for themselves or dumber for it, not smarter. But
there will be some who've never even studied and compared
this vehicle's maintenance record to that vehicle's maintenance. They'll fight
(12:08):
to the depth over this. How are our kids ever
going to be educated? Well, how are we educated from
our founding to nineteen seventy nine? Haven't you ever gotten
one of those little things where a nineteen twenty one
test and you can't pass any of it and then
he finds out it was freaking fourth grade. Wow, they'll
(12:30):
turn you on your head. A. We need to be
educating and we're not, and this is getting in the way. B.
We need to get smarter and compete globally, not dumber
and lower the standard. But you watch, it'll be a
big matrix fight. And if they solve the war with
Ukraine and Russia, and they solve the tariffs and the
(12:52):
negotiations for trade, this is where the left will go next.
They'll draw on the line in the sand over ending
government education that has been nothing but a failure since
nineteen seventy nine. So is it a matrix issue? Promise
made promise, cap logical choice? Or oh my god, they're
gutting education. Where will our children go to school? And
(13:14):
do any of us have the stomach to play out
all these stupid games and lies? Those are just some
of my favorite stories of the day. We'll get your
top five stories of the day coming up. Also always revealing,
often entertaining. Today very heady are sounds of the day. Hey,
what if there was a way to effectively defend yourself
de escalate a situation without the irreversible consequence of deadly force.
(13:38):
I mean, do you really want to pull a trigger?
Deal with the financial mental repercussions have to defend yourself
in court. Adam Alexander was one of our burner owners
who found himself in a road rage situation. This guy
was really nuts. Adam got out pointed as burner laser
right onto his chest. The guy want Actor's car, The
(14:00):
police arrived, everything was avoided. I have a plan. You
should have a plan, and you're gonna find the burner
launcher a great compliment to your firearm protection strategy. Legal
in all fifty states, no permits, background checks needed. The
launcher has powerful deterrence like tear gas. Kinetic rounds with
a sixty foot range and one shot can incapacitated attacker
(14:23):
for up to forty minutes, and with burner you save
two lives. Check them out today online at Berner BYRNA

Speaker 1 (14:43):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chono.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
The House passing a six month funding bill to prevent
a government shutdown. Now it's onto the Senate to do
the same or not. Ukraine has agreed to a thirty
day seas fire with Russia. Now it's up to Moscow
to accept the premiere of Ontario, Canada putting out hold
his decision that imposes tariffs and electric exports to the US.
That's good news for my friends at Michigan as well,
(15:08):
as he has apologized. Now, we can't have your morning
show without your voice. Use that talkback button on your
iHeartRadio app like Blaine did. Let's start with Blaine. Good morning, Michael.
Speaker 7 (15:19):
A little known fact apparently, the one of the main
arteries of fuel going to Ontario through the Windsor Tunnel
or near the Windsor Tunnel under the Macton Bridge, through
the center of Michigan to Ontario is a thing called
Line five. It's been there for a long time and
you know those have cutoffs, so and that is an
(15:40):
awful lot of their fuel goes right through Michigan.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
The old expression is if you mess with the bull,
sometimes you get the horns. Something tells me that the
premiere was very outspoken. He challenged Donald Trump, said he
hates doing this to America. But Donald Trump started this war.
And there's going to be a twenty five percent tariff
on electricity in the United States coming from Ontario. Now
(16:05):
Doug Ford has apologized put the tariffs on hold. Something
tells me a negotiation has begun or someone messed with
the bull and got the horns yesterday. Next up is Roger.
Speaker 8 (16:18):
Thinking about how Canada's kind of backed off on their
big talk yesterday and makes me wonder if Trump sent
maybe a couple of thousand copies of Rosetta Stone language
courses in Russian and if he hadn't he should.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
I think it may have to do with the Macani area.
Let's get in. Can we get Perry in real quick?
Perry George W. Did not help the education situation any
with his no child left behind. That did a whole
lot dumb down kids in our schools, just like the
Department of Education has. So he can't lay at all
on Jimmy. George has some scanning that game too. I'll
(16:56):
tell you what, you know how we remember this even
Google will take you on a journey. Was this, you know,
a political move to get support from teachers unions for
Jimmy Carter in a tough race against Ronald Reagan? Was
this about different agencies that were handling education things and
putting them all under one umbrella. Whatever it was, what
(17:19):
it has become is a game of control, and we're
not smarter for it, and we're not more prepared for it.
But nobody wants to have that discussion. They want to
keep it political, and we're all the dumber for it.
Speaker 5 (17:33):
This is Steam the Wrestler, a refugee from the People's
Republic of Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
And my morning show is your Morning Show with Michael
del joinal.
Speaker 9 (17:49):
Hi.
Speaker 2 (17:49):

We'd love to be a part of your morning routine.
Now enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
The House is passing a six month funding bill, Now
the Senate needs to do the same. Ukraine has agreed
to a thirty day seas fire mass layoffs at the
Department of Education. Oh and the premiere of Ontario Canada
has put on hold the imposition of tariffs. Somewhere along
the line, the horns arrived with the bull and he's
changed his mind. That's the top stories. But what are
(18:32):
the sounds of the day? You ask, we will win?
We we missed.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
They all look like a bunch of girly men.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Even that I am meditating. As we often say, narratives
die and their cause of death is always the same
reality consequence. So what was the narrative of the legacy
mainstream media?
Speaker 4 (19:03):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (19:04):
What you saw in the Oval Office. We warned you
that this Donald Trump was nothing but a putent wanna
be a putent puppet, turning his back on freedom in
the Ukraine. Why he's destroyed Ukrainian US relations forever? And
then this happens.
Speaker 10 (19:22):
His number one interest is to ending this war once
and for all. Today we made an offer that the
Ukrainians have accepted, which is to enter into a ceasefire
and into immediate negotiations to end this conflict in a
way that's enduring and sustainable and accounts for their interests,
their security.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Their ability to prosper as a nation.
Speaker 10 (19:41):
I want to personally think we both want to thank
the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's majesty for hosting us, for
making this possible. They've been instrumental in this process, and
we're very grateful to them for hosting us here today.
And hopefully we'll take this offer and out of the Russians.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
First, we got to stay in the moment. We're only
halfway there. As Mark was saying, now, we got to
take it to the Russians and.
Speaker 10 (20:02):
We hope that they'll say yes, that they'll say yes
to piece. The ball is now in their court. But again,
the President's objective here is number one above everything else.
He wants the war to end, and I think today
Ukraine has taken a concrete step in that regard.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
We hope the Russians will reciprocate. That's point number one,
point number two is I never could figure out a
pathway for Governor DeSantis, who I think has candidacy issues,
not governing issues. He's been a great governor and I
(20:37):
think he'd be a great president, but he's just kind
of off the stage. I don't see Tulsea Gabbert rising
to any point. I mean, I really think the future
of trump Ism or the future of the Republican Party,
whichever you want to call it, is probably jd. Vance
(20:58):
and Marco Rubio. And if they combine, it's looking like
a solid ticket. That's a great job by both of them.
Oh and another death to a narrative of the left.
I'll never forget the Ukraine of the US relations repaired, repaired,
signed off on a cease fire, and now it's on
to Moscow. We had mentioned this, and I don't you know,
(21:21):
not too many people bring it up, but we featured
When did we do the auto sign story? Was that Monday?
I think it was Monday. The days all run together
for me. Anyway, Look, this is significant, not just because Okay,
we all know Joe Biden wasn't president, but who was?
(21:43):
And somebody better tell us there can be much bigger
issues like every one of those things that were signed.
And that wasn't just late in his presidency when you
knew he was really see now, that's from a lot
of these auto signs were used very early on in
his first executive orders. So what begs the question is
(22:03):
any of this lawful? Is any of it legal binding? Well,
that finally got asked at the White House yesterday that
many of.
Speaker 11 (22:10):
His official actions were auto signed, possibly even the partons
and without his knowledge or consent? Does the White House
have any information available currently that Biden is actually the
one that approved and signed those pardons? And the second question,
will a DJ investigate whether President Biden's cognitive decline allowed
unelected staff to push through radical policy and partons without
(22:31):
his own approval.
Speaker 9 (22:33):
I don't know the answer to that question, but I
can check in with our folks here who may know
the answer to that question and.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Get back to you. Well, because wouldn't that be huge
if autosign was used to pardon his son or Fauci
or other key figures that think they're protected and they're not.
As investigations move forward, and I just end with this,
(23:03):
since when does this particular Press Secretary Caroline Levitt not
knows something? Because I think she does know and does
know what they're looking into, and does know it's a
legal issue. I mean, let me tell you something. Get
(23:24):
once we get over these big hurdles to get the
ship in the right direction, there's some very interesting days ahead.
We did this earlier in the show, but I want
to repeat it during Sounds of the Day. And that
is because it doesn't really matter what ABCNBCCBS, sixty Minutes,
Meet the Press, CNNMSNBC, or even Fox for that matters
(23:48):
talking about. But when Elon Musk goes on Joe Rogan,
tens of millions are listening and they're learning a lot
about NGOs. What are they learning? I'll let Elon explain.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
The whole NGO thing is a is a nightmare, and
it's it's a misnomer because if you have a government
funded non governmental organization, you're you're simply a governum funded organization.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
It's a it's an oxymoron, right, It's a loophole.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Yes, it basically, the government funded NGOs are a way
to do things that would be illegal if they were
the government, but are somehow made legal if it's sent
to a so called nonprofit. But these but these non
profits are then used to people cash out these nonprofits.
Speaker 9 (24:36):
They've become very wealthy through nonprofits. They pay themselves in
almost sums through these nonprofits.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
That's it's so insane that that's been going on for
so long.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
It's a gigantic scam, like one of the biggest, maybe
the biggest scam ever.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
And how many NGOs take a moment and soak this sin?
If I were to ask you right now, how many
NGOs do you think? Let me tell you something. It's
like a matrix reality going on. Look at how you're
focused on the federal budget this week. These career politicians
all coming in a room spending us further into debt.
(25:14):
I always use this analogy. If you came home and
all of a sudden, there's all these fire trucks at
your house. What is going on? This is my house? Well,
your sewage backed up?
Speaker 4 (25:25):
What?
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Yes, there's raw sewage from your basement through the first floor,
the second floor, into your attic, into my attic. Is
there any part of my house it isn't full of crap.
There's two inches right near the top of the were
the roof peaks. Well, what do you think we should do?
We're going to raise the ceiling ten feet, you'd be like,
(25:47):
hama ha, got here. But that's what we do with
continuing resolutions. We spend our way into a craploaded debt,
and we think the solution is to raise the ceiling
rather than get therap out of the house. But while
you're focused on that, there's a world of NGOs where
(26:08):
billions and billions of your dollars are funding the real
agendas and no one's even tracking it. And it's your money.
So here's Joe Rogan saying, well, well, how many of
these are there? You ready for the answer. Can you
imagine if it's a thousand? I mean, what's a thousand
(26:33):
billion dollar NGOs up to a thousand? Listen.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
I think there's a total of ENGOs, probably millions, but
in terms of largengos, tens of thousands, uh, tens of.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
Thousands, probably millions, but significant ones, tens of thousands. The
kind of checks Podesta is laundered, the kind of check
Soros is laundered and leveraged. This is where they're really
controlling this country. Oh and I don't have to remind
you none of these are elected officials choosing your money.
(27:10):
And how it's spent.
Speaker 3 (27:11):
I mean it's actually it's kind of a hack to
the system where someone can get an NGO stood up
for a fairly small amount of money. Like George Soros
was really good at this, Like he really George Soros
is like a system hacker, Like he figured out how
to hack the system. He's a genius at arbitrage. I
(27:31):
mean these days he's pretty old, but genius at aarbatrage.
So he figured out that you could leverage a small
amount of money to create a nonprofit then lobby for
the politicians to send a ton of money to that nonprofit.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
So you can take what might be, you know, a.
Speaker 9 (27:51):
Ten million dollar donation to a nonprofit to create a
nonprofit and leverage that into a billion dollar not ango.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
A nonprofit is a weird word. It's just a non
gunmental organization.
Speaker 9 (28:00):
And and then you can the government can continues to
fund that every year, and it'll have a nice sounding
name like the Institute for Peace or something like that,
but really it's a graphic machine.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
And what are the requirements with that money? What do
they have to do? Just really no requirements at all,
No requirements at all. Listen, I know that two thirds
of the American people want this administration to drain the swamp.
I just you know, when you think about it. I
grew up Louisiana. I had across the swamp. I used
(28:36):
to fish and buy us where the swamp would meet,
like bonche Tree. There's some crazy crap and swamp water
and you're just starting to see some of it. And
stop it. Ever let anybody take your power from you.
Speaker 5 (29:00):
No, no, it is by the the motto keep come,
come along.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Always revealing, often entertaining. That's your Sounds of the day
for this Wednesday, March to twelfth. You have our Lord
twenty twenty five. This is your morning show with Michael
del Chrono on the air and on your iHeartRadio app.
That's where you're gonna find the talk back button if
you want to join the show. We'd love to hear
from you. Ukraine is agreed to a thirty day cease fire.
(29:27):
I thought, are you boss?
Speaker 4 (29:28):
Ukraine?
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Relations were destroyed and destroyed forever. The premiere of Ontario
Canada's apologized and he's putting all tariffs on. Oh wait, aute,
I thought we were in a tariff warn it was
gonna make us all poor and broke. Nothing is as
it appeared yesterday, and the House has passed the six
month funding bill to prevent the government that went I
believe two seventeen to two thirteen. I'm using my photographic memory,
(29:51):
so by four now, that's a tougher, tougher lift in
the United States Senate. I know that because John Decker
told me that yesterday. John Decker is joining us our
White House correspondent, John five years ago, the White House correspondent,
you broke a story about Donald Trump being nominated for
a Nobel Peace Prize. You caught up with the person
who nominated him. He doesn't feel the same way now,
(30:13):
does he.
Speaker 6 (30:15):
Well, he still describes himself as a big admirer of
Donald Trump. He's very much pro Maga, but he's also
very much pro Ukraine and he would like to see
the President provide more support to Ukraine. He won security
guarantees for Ukraine. He thinks that will give a further
(30:36):
lift to his candidacy for a Nobel Peace Prize. With
the Norwegian committee that ultimately decides who the Peace Prize
winner is. That ceremony takes place December of this year,
and this Norwegian member of Parliament was a person who nominated,
as you point out, Michael Donald Trump five years ago
for his work in securing the Abraham Accords, which normalized
(31:00):
between Israel and the United Arab Emirates.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Yeah, and then this term we look closer to Marco
Rubio making the announcement yesterday in Saudi Arabia that we've
got the Ukraine portion done, agreeing to with a thirty
day ceasefire with Russia. Now it's on to Moscow. I
don't know how this changes his view that there's a
much bigger story that his particular view. But if the
President can achieve this and finish this peace process and
(31:26):
with it security for Ukraine, might December be our first
glimpse at the President getting that Nobel Peace Prize. Because
I'm wondering how this guy's feeling today compared to yesterday
when you talked to him.
Speaker 6 (31:39):
Yeah, I mean, we chat online and we keep up
with each other over the course of the past five years.
Obviously he's pleased that there was some positive developments.
Speaker 4 (31:50):
Coming out of Saudi Arabia yesterday.
Speaker 6 (31:52):
But I've said this before, the President said it yesterday.
It takes two to tango. You need Russia to come
to the table. You need Russia to make some compromises,
some concessions, in the same.
Speaker 4 (32:03):
Way that Ukraine made some.
Speaker 6 (32:05):
Compromises and concessions yesterday in the meeting that took place
in Jed of Saudi Arabia.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
I know we stick to news and we don't do opinion,
but I don't think this falls under opinion. This is
a tough president to cover because you know, it's kind
of like the Ukraine meeting that everybody in the media said,
now US Ukraine relations are destroyed forever. Well, yesterday's proof
that wasn't true.
Speaker 6 (32:26):
I did a lot, Yeah, I didn't think so when
that happened.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Yeah, a lot of people, you know, would come to
this conclusion that conversation in the Oval office was uncomfortable
with the media and for everybody to see, would have
been completely normal behind closed doors. A lot of these
negotiations that are happening out loud for all to see
kind of create a roller coaster ride, but it really
doesn't change the outcome. And so you can jump on
(32:50):
a certain day against what's the president doing, why is
he saying it that way? Why is he playing it
this way? But in the end they tend to work out.
It makes him a tough president to cover.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Well, he is a tough president to cover, you know.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
Just bringing it.
Speaker 6 (33:03):
Back to what we were talking about, that Norwegian parliament
member said, one.
Speaker 4 (33:07):
Of the reasons why the Abraham.
Speaker 6 (33:09):
Accords were successful is because it was all done behind
closed doors, and he thinks that is something that is
instructive for this conflict in terms of negotiating behind closed doors,
not open to the public, and that way you can
get some.
Speaker 4 (33:25):
Movement from both sides.
Speaker 6 (33:26):
And we'll see whether the White House takes Christian tybring Jetty,
that parliament member up on that advice that he's given
the president.
Speaker 4 (33:34):
You know, I was he's very you.
Speaker 6 (33:36):
Know, like I said, we've got a good relationship. I
got him invited to the Victory Party and Palm Beach
in November. He was at the inauguration. I hooked him
up with that. He's a big fan of Donald Trump.
He just wants to see him provide more support for Ukraine.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Closing moments with John Deckra, a White House correspondent, Yeah,
I'm not bashing him at all, and I'm not really
bashing others. I'm just saying it's a very my gases,
you know, for some reason, like with the tariffs, and
even to some degree with U. Krank because remember what
the President said of the abundance of the heart. The
mouse speaks that whole exchange with JD. Vans and him
the president time did No. I'm glad this is happening
(34:13):
for everybody to see. It's as if he's choosing to
do this stuff in front of everybody and not behind
closed doors for a specific reason, maybe a reason we
don't understand today, but it'll make perfect sense a week
from now, a month from now, who knows, but it is.
I just wanted to just for the record, Boy, I've
covered a lot of presidents, You've covered eight as a
White House correspondent. Everybody's got to take a deep breath
(34:36):
with this guy, because some of this stuff is process
and method, not destination.
Speaker 6 (34:42):
Yeah, you can't jump to conclusions, you know the day
of I think that some people do that, and they
make the mistake of doing that. You know, even after
that blow up in the Oval Office, I didn't think
that was the end of the possibility of repairing a
relationship between President Trump and Presidents Lynskin. I think we're
moving in that direction actually.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
And now the toughest part getting Russia to agree. Appreciate it,
John Decker. As always, we're all in this together. This
is your Morning Show with Michael Ndheld, Joan Now
Hey, it's me Michael. Your morning show has heard live
from five to eight am Central, six to nine am Eastern,
three to six am Pacific on great radio stations like
News Radio eleven ninety k EX in Portland, News Talk
five 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
(00:22):
than never.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Enjoy the podcast on two three starting your morning off right.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
A new way of talk, a new way of understanding,
because we're in this together.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
This is your morning show with Michael del Chorino. It's
hot for the morning to you seven minutes after the hour.
Welcome to Wednesday, March, the twelfth year of Our Lord,
twenty twenty five. We got one chance to live this day.
Don't drift through it. Live it, make a difference in
someone's life, Cherish your own, and let's start the journey
(00:55):
of morning understanding.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Shall we.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
The House has passed a six month funding bill to
prevent the government shut down. Now it'll be a little
a little heavier lifting in the Senate, but we're halfway there.
To the latest impossible Ukraine is agreeing to a thirty
day seas fire. I thought, after what we saw at
the Oval Office, our relationship with Ukraine was shot forever, right,
(01:17):
Isn't that why the senator from Arizona went there thirty
day seas fire's side. Marco did it in Saudi Rabia.
Now it's on to get Russia at the table. And
the premiere of Ontario that was threatening all of those
imposed tariffs on electricity, he hated to do it to
the United States because he loves the United States. Now
he's apologizing and the tariffs areround hold. And this one's
a struggle for me for many reasons, not the least
(01:41):
of which is Nashville. I don't have to tell all
of you listening the show originates from just outside of Nashville,
in a bunker in an undisclosed porta potty in Williamson County.
But everybody from all over the country to the point
(02:01):
where you just have to warn people on the air
stop inviting anybody from visiting. We don't want anybody else
living here. Welcome to Nashville. You're invaded by California to
the point where my home value was tripled. I'm supposed
to believe, according to this report, that Nashville is one
hundred and eighteenth behind Chicago at ninety third, the murder
capital of the world. And that I think seven of
(02:23):
the ten happiest places to live in America are all
in California. That they keep invading my state from roy
O'Neill is here. Where is the happiest place in America?
And can we trust these numbers? Well, yeah, I don't know,
but they're fun to talk about. Right by the way,
I got me have a bit of a flashback. My
first paying radio job was inside a renovated chicken coop.
(02:45):
You're kidding in Hope Valley, Rhode Island, where six foot
six me you can only stand up straight and have
the building. Why were they in a chicken coop because
that was in the owner's backyard. See, I'm so glad
I never my first radio market was the thirty fifth market.
I never had to do small mark. I mean, part
of me is jealous of people because the stories are great.
(03:06):
Like my brother was down on the Bayou in Louisiana.
He started in Thibadeau or no, he's starting Golden Meadow.
But I never had any of that but that would
be fun broadcasting from a college it was still in college.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Yeah, those are good times.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
All right.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Happiest cities A lot of them are in the Bay area.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
Yeah, Fremont, California, San Jose or Irvine, Sioux Falls. South
Dakota steaks in there at number four, and Overland Park,
Kansas comes in at number five. Lincoln, Nebraska another one
there in the midwest at sixth, Madison, Wisconsin seven. Then
you get back down to the west, Scottsdale and San
Francisco and.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Huntington Beach all there in your top ten.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
That's a lot of California, though, it is a lot
of California, and sorry, Cleveland, Ohio.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
They are the guardians of last place. Really, And you
know what, if I ever left Nashville, it's either going
to be Connecticut, Maine, or Cleveland. Those are three areas.
I just I love ocean crashing against rock, so that's
the other two. But I would live in Cleveland. I
completely disagree there. But they're doing it based on salaries.
Although seventy thousand dollars in the San Francisco Bay areas
(04:12):
it sounds great, it's not much yeah at all. By
the way, did you ever look up Did you ever
look up Fremont? U? No, not particularly? How do you mean?
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Well?
Speaker 2 (04:22):
I was looking at pictures. It looks really nice. It
looks like the city they used an outbreak, Remember when
they were going to drop the bomb to kill the virus.
That quaint little city. That's what it looks like. I
wonder if they filmed it there. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Fremont, for folks that don't know, is around San Francisco Bay.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
It's in that general area. I mean, it's like a
quaint little place. But all right, which you out of
all of those if you had to go, where would
you go?
Speaker 5 (04:46):
I'd probably aim for San Diego somewhere, and I don't
think that was on my list.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Had an uncle in San Jose, Yeah, Irvine.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
I know.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
My problem is I don't know the way to San Jos.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
Madison was, Yeah, Madison was gone. Wouldn't be bad at Scottsdale. No,
I'd be too close to the Boss. No thanks, I.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Was just thinking about going to see him and playing
a little golf. I like the Boss. Make a note
all those tracking the Chris Berry studio here at the
Bill May Broadcast Center that Rory doesn't want to go
to Scottsdale. Well, unfortunately for both of us. The real
list that counts is where everybody has been moving in
at your state mine. But Rory will be back right
(05:25):
a little bit later. Actually, last in the show, we
always give the final story to Rory on the two
American astronauts whose hair in space looks similar to mine
here on Earth. We'll do that more with Rory coming up.
All right, if you're just waking up twelve minutes after
the hour, we have this theme, and this theme is
(05:46):
narratives keep dying of reality. And look, I will admit
this is like, first of all, I don't worship Donald Trump.
I pray for him every day. I thank God for
him every day, and not rooting for his presidency because
(06:07):
I'm in the car with him. As an American, why
would you root against your president, root against your country
and your own reality. I really genuinely align with his visions.
Now I don't always I wouldn't always say it the
way he says it or do it the way he
would do it. But that's why He's probably going to
go down as the most effective president in history, and
I'm going to go down as a fledgling talk show host,
(06:31):
but it's a different presidency. So and let me do
it in this wording. If we were going to sit
and have a conversation. And I have some favorite presidents,
George Washington, John F. Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, and quite frankly,
Donald Trump will be one of my favorite presidents. There
were things about George Bush I really loved, and there
were things about George W. Bush I really disagreed with. So,
(06:55):
but that would kind of round out, you know, some
of my thoughts. Trump's different than all of them. You
just can't on a daily basis. And I'll give you
an example. Yesterday I was thinking, how can this great
president be even greater? Well, one, we got a midterm election,
and while I see where he's going in the art
of the deal. In other words, the tariffs aren't the destination.
(07:17):
They're the tool to get to the destination. But if
they become a destination, ultimately we would win, which is
why it's a great negotiating tool. But I think, you know,
this whole game of temporary pain for permanent solution that
could bite you in the button the midterm and the
Democrats are honed in what they see is two vulnerabilities
(07:40):
ending the war in Ukraine and the economy, take it
off the table. Just get on a plane, go to
Canada and end this deal, and I'd be wrong again.
So we wake up this morning and just as the
media got through telling you, well, yeah, maybe Donald Trump
(08:02):
picks the border, but he's really screwed things up with
the economy, and this tariff war is really gonna bite
him where it really counts automobiles, ultimately housing, because you're
not gonna have any wood. And you see what the
premiere Ford did in Canada. This guy loves America, hates
to do it, but he's gonna shaft everybody in the
(08:24):
Great Lakes and their electricity. And then you wake up
this morning and the premiere apologizes and puts all these
tariff talks on hold, and he's at the table ready
to forge a trade agreement. And you're like, boy, I
(08:44):
was stupid to worry yesterday. You know what, maybe the
stock marker will bounce back today. Yeah, I mean, at
some point, when are we gonna get it? There's just
something about this guy, and even when he does things
in a way you wouldn't do it, even though ultimately
he's doing the right thing, he's right, and you're wrong again,
(09:08):
and that's just the trade, and that's just Ukraine. I
love too, because this is probably where the left is
going to go next. I can already see it and
putting together top five stories for you. You know, the subtle
wording like President Trump is gutting the Department of Education.
(09:29):
You know, it makes you think of you know, just
shot a little baby deer and now you're gutting it
in the forest and drinking its blood. And you know,
I look at it and it's a matrix issue politically, culturally,
and the matrix issue is half of the over half
(09:49):
the country I think is going to look at it
and going, well, there's a promise made, promise kept, very
very vintage Donald Trump. And then the other side is going
to tell you think the education the topic go to hell?
Then this guy's out of control. And then I'm just
like in the middle and saying, all right, if you
put the matrix narratives aside, how well do you think
(10:13):
the Department of Education at the federal level has been.
It didn't even exist until Jimmy Carter and I was
a sophomore. Oh my god, how did I get educated
through my sophomore year without a federal government involvement, and
(10:33):
then I would just beg you, We'll go back and
look at the report card since nineteen seventy nine. Are
our kids educated more or less? Are they more prepared
for higher education or less prepared? Are they smarter or dumber?
I can tell you this, They've been indoctrinated and socialized
(10:57):
quite effectively educated. You'd have a hard time making that case.
And then you just stop and you think to yourself,
I think the average American makes more effort and studies
the quality and results of vehicles and refrigerators more than
(11:21):
the education of our children and the preparation for citizenry,
higher education, and leadership in the world. Because if you
looked at the Department of Education in Washington, DC, the
way you compare a Samsung refrigerator to a whirldpool, it'd
be an obvious choice for you. It's just bureaucracy, control,
(11:45):
and agenda, nothing that has anything to do with preparing
your kids for life, college or citizenry. And the numbers
speak for themselves or dumber for it, not smarter. But
there will be some who've never even studied and compared
this vehicle's maintenance record to that vehicle's maintenance. They'll fight
(12:08):
to the depth over this. How are our kids ever
going to be educated? Well, how are we educated from
our founding to nineteen seventy nine? Haven't you ever gotten
one of those little things where a nineteen twenty one
test and you can't pass any of it and then
he finds out it was freaking fourth grade. Wow, they'll
(12:30):
turn you on your head. A. We need to be
educating and we're not, and this is getting in the way. B.
We need to get smarter and compete globally, not dumber
and lower the standard. But you watch, it'll be a
big matrix fight. And if they solve the war with
Ukraine and Russia, and they solve the tariffs and the
(12:52):
negotiations for trade, this is where the left will go next.
They'll draw on the line in the sand over ending
government education that has been nothing but a failure since
nineteen seventy nine. So is it a matrix issue? Promise
made promise, cap logical choice? Or oh my god, they're
gutting education. Where will our children go to school? And
(13:14):
do any of us have the stomach to play out
all these stupid games and lies? Those are just some
of my favorite stories of the day. We'll get your
top five stories of the day coming up. Also always revealing,
often entertaining. Today very heady are sounds of the day. Hey,
what if there was a way to effectively defend yourself
de escalate a situation without the irreversible consequence of deadly force.
(13:38):
I mean, do you really want to pull a trigger?
Deal with the financial mental repercussions have to defend yourself
in court. Adam Alexander was one of our burner owners
who found himself in a road rage situation. This guy
was really nuts. Adam got out pointed as burner laser
right onto his chest. The guy want Actor's car, The
(14:00):
police arrived, everything was avoided. I have a plan. You
should have a plan, and you're gonna find the burner
launcher a great compliment to your firearm protection strategy. Legal
in all fifty states, no permits, background checks needed. The
launcher has powerful deterrence like tear gas. Kinetic rounds with
a sixty foot range and one shot can incapacitated attacker

Speaker 1 (14:43):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chono.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
The House passing a six month funding bill to prevent
a government shutdown. Now it's onto the Senate to do
the same or not. Ukraine has agreed to a thirty
day seas fire with Russia. Now it's up to Moscow
to accept the premiere of Ontario, Canada putting out hold
his decision that imposes tariffs and electric exports to the US.
That's good news for my friends at Michigan as well,
(15:08):
as he has apologized. Now, we can't have your morning
show without your voice. Use that talkback button on your
iHeartRadio app like Blaine did. Let's start with Blaine. Good morning, Michael.
Speaker 7 (15:19):
A little known fact apparently, the one of the main
arteries of fuel going to Ontario through the Windsor Tunnel
or near the Windsor Tunnel under the Macton Bridge, through
the center of Michigan to Ontario is a thing called
Line five. It's been there for a long time and
you know those have cutoffs, so and that is an
(15:40):
awful lot of their fuel goes right through Michigan.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
The old expression is if you mess with the bull,
sometimes you get the horns. Something tells me that the
premiere was very outspoken. He challenged Donald Trump, said he
hates doing this to America. But Donald Trump started this war.
And there's going to be a twenty five percent tariff
on electricity in the United States coming from Ontario. Now
(16:05):
Doug Ford has apologized put the tariffs on hold. Something
tells me a negotiation has begun or someone messed with
the bull and got the horns yesterday. Next up is Roger.
Speaker 8 (16:18):
Thinking about how Canada's kind of backed off on their
big talk yesterday and makes me wonder if Trump sent
maybe a couple of thousand copies of Rosetta Stone language
courses in Russian and if he hadn't he should.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
I think it may have to do with the Macani area.
Let's get in. Can we get Perry in real quick?
Perry George W. Did not help the education situation any
with his no child left behind. That did a whole
lot dumb down kids in our schools, just like the
Department of Education has. So he can't lay at all
on Jimmy. George has some scanning that game too. I'll
(16:56):
tell you what, you know how we remember this even
Google will take you on a journey. Was this, you know,
a political move to get support from teachers unions for
Jimmy Carter in a tough race against Ronald Reagan? Was
this about different agencies that were handling education things and
putting them all under one umbrella. Whatever it was, what
(17:19):
it has become is a game of control, and we're
not smarter for it, and we're not more prepared for it.
But nobody wants to have that discussion. They want to
keep it political, and we're all the dumber for it.
Speaker 5 (17:33):
This is Steam the Wrestler, a refugee from the People's
Republic of Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
And my morning show is your Morning Show with Michael
del joinal.
Speaker 9 (17:49):
Hi.
Speaker 2 (17:49):

We'd love to be a part of your morning routine.
Now enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
The House is passing a six month funding bill, Now
the Senate needs to do the same. Ukraine has agreed
to a thirty day seas fire mass layoffs at the
Department of Education. Oh and the premiere of Ontario Canada
has put on hold the imposition of tariffs. Somewhere along
the line, the horns arrived with the bull and he's
changed his mind. That's the top stories. But what are
(18:32):
the sounds of the day? You ask, we will win?
We we missed.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
They all look like a bunch of girly men.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Even that I am meditating. As we often say, narratives
die and their cause of death is always the same
reality consequence. So what was the narrative of the legacy
mainstream media?
Speaker 4 (19:03):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (19:04):
What you saw in the Oval Office. We warned you
that this Donald Trump was nothing but a putent wanna
be a putent puppet, turning his back on freedom in
the Ukraine. Why he's destroyed Ukrainian US relations forever? And
then this happens.
Speaker 10 (19:22):
His number one interest is to ending this war once
and for all. Today we made an offer that the
Ukrainians have accepted, which is to enter into a ceasefire
and into immediate negotiations to end this conflict in a
way that's enduring and sustainable and accounts for their interests,
their security.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Their ability to prosper as a nation.
Speaker 10 (19:41):
I want to personally think we both want to thank
the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's majesty for hosting us, for
making this possible. They've been instrumental in this process, and
we're very grateful to them for hosting us here today.
And hopefully we'll take this offer and out of the Russians.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
First, we got to stay in the moment. We're only
halfway there. As Mark was saying, now, we got to
take it to the Russians and.
Speaker 10 (20:02):
We hope that they'll say yes, that they'll say yes
to piece. The ball is now in their court. But again,
the President's objective here is number one above everything else.
He wants the war to end, and I think today
Ukraine has taken a concrete step in that regard.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
We hope the Russians will reciprocate. That's point number one,
point number two is I never could figure out a
pathway for Governor DeSantis, who I think has candidacy issues,
not governing issues. He's been a great governor and I
(20:37):
think he'd be a great president, but he's just kind
of off the stage. I don't see Tulsea Gabbert rising
to any point. I mean, I really think the future
of trump Ism or the future of the Republican Party,
whichever you want to call it, is probably jd. Vance
(20:58):
and Marco Rubio. And if they combine, it's looking like
a solid ticket. That's a great job by both of them.
Oh and another death to a narrative of the left.
I'll never forget the Ukraine of the US relations repaired, repaired,
signed off on a cease fire, and now it's on
to Moscow. We had mentioned this, and I don't you know,
(21:21):
not too many people bring it up, but we featured
When did we do the auto sign story? Was that Monday?
I think it was Monday. The days all run together
for me. Anyway, Look, this is significant, not just because Okay,
we all know Joe Biden wasn't president, but who was?
(21:43):
And somebody better tell us there can be much bigger
issues like every one of those things that were signed.
And that wasn't just late in his presidency when you
knew he was really see now, that's from a lot
of these auto signs were used very early on in
his first executive orders. So what begs the question is
(22:03):
any of this lawful? Is any of it legal binding? Well,
that finally got asked at the White House yesterday that
many of.
Speaker 11 (22:10):
His official actions were auto signed, possibly even the partons
and without his knowledge or consent? Does the White House
have any information available currently that Biden is actually the
one that approved and signed those pardons? And the second question,
will a DJ investigate whether President Biden's cognitive decline allowed
unelected staff to push through radical policy and partons without
(22:31):
his own approval.
Speaker 9 (22:33):
I don't know the answer to that question, but I
can check in with our folks here who may know
the answer to that question and.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Get back to you. Well, because wouldn't that be huge
if autosign was used to pardon his son or Fauci
or other key figures that think they're protected and they're not.
As investigations move forward, and I just end with this,
(23:03):
since when does this particular Press Secretary Caroline Levitt not
knows something? Because I think she does know and does
know what they're looking into, and does know it's a
legal issue. I mean, let me tell you something. Get
(23:24):
once we get over these big hurdles to get the
ship in the right direction, there's some very interesting days ahead.
We did this earlier in the show, but I want
to repeat it during Sounds of the Day. And that
is because it doesn't really matter what ABCNBCCBS, sixty Minutes,
Meet the Press, CNNMSNBC, or even Fox for that matters
(23:48):
talking about. But when Elon Musk goes on Joe Rogan,
tens of millions are listening and they're learning a lot
about NGOs. What are they learning? I'll let Elon explain.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
The whole NGO thing is a is a nightmare, and
it's it's a misnomer because if you have a government
funded non governmental organization, you're you're simply a governum funded organization.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
It's a it's an oxymoron, right, It's a loophole.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Yes, it basically, the government funded NGOs are a way
to do things that would be illegal if they were
the government, but are somehow made legal if it's sent
to a so called nonprofit. But these but these non
profits are then used to people cash out these nonprofits.
Speaker 9 (24:36):
They've become very wealthy through nonprofits. They pay themselves in
almost sums through these nonprofits.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
That's it's so insane that that's been going on for
so long.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
It's a gigantic scam, like one of the biggest, maybe
the biggest scam ever.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
And how many NGOs take a moment and soak this sin?
If I were to ask you right now, how many
NGOs do you think? Let me tell you something. It's
like a matrix reality going on. Look at how you're
focused on the federal budget this week. These career politicians
all coming in a room spending us further into debt.
(25:14):
I always use this analogy. If you came home and
all of a sudden, there's all these fire trucks at
your house. What is going on? This is my house? Well,
your sewage backed up?
Speaker 4 (25:25):
What?
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Yes, there's raw sewage from your basement through the first floor,
the second floor, into your attic, into my attic. Is
there any part of my house it isn't full of crap.
There's two inches right near the top of the were
the roof peaks. Well, what do you think we should do?
We're going to raise the ceiling ten feet, you'd be like,
(25:47):
hama ha, got here. But that's what we do with
continuing resolutions. We spend our way into a craploaded debt,
and we think the solution is to raise the ceiling
rather than get therap out of the house. But while
you're focused on that, there's a world of NGOs where
(26:08):
billions and billions of your dollars are funding the real
agendas and no one's even tracking it. And it's your money.
So here's Joe Rogan saying, well, well, how many of
these are there? You ready for the answer. Can you
imagine if it's a thousand? I mean, what's a thousand
(26:33):
billion dollar NGOs up to a thousand? Listen.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
I think there's a total of ENGOs, probably millions, but
in terms of largengos, tens of thousands, uh, tens of.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
Thousands, probably millions, but significant ones, tens of thousands. The
kind of checks Podesta is laundered, the kind of check
Soros is laundered and leveraged. This is where they're really
controlling this country. Oh and I don't have to remind
you none of these are elected officials choosing your money.
(27:10):
And how it's spent.
Speaker 3 (27:11):
I mean it's actually it's kind of a hack to
the system where someone can get an NGO stood up
for a fairly small amount of money. Like George Soros
was really good at this, Like he really George Soros
is like a system hacker, Like he figured out how
to hack the system. He's a genius at arbitrage. I
(27:31):
mean these days he's pretty old, but genius at aarbatrage.
So he figured out that you could leverage a small
amount of money to create a nonprofit then lobby for
the politicians to send a ton of money to that nonprofit.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
So you can take what might be, you know, a.
Speaker 9 (27:51):
Ten million dollar donation to a nonprofit to create a
nonprofit and leverage that into a billion dollar not ango.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
A nonprofit is a weird word. It's just a non
gunmental organization.
Speaker 9 (28:00):
And and then you can the government can continues to
fund that every year, and it'll have a nice sounding
name like the Institute for Peace or something like that,
but really it's a graphic machine.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
And what are the requirements with that money? What do
they have to do? Just really no requirements at all,
No requirements at all. Listen, I know that two thirds
of the American people want this administration to drain the swamp.
I just you know, when you think about it. I
grew up Louisiana. I had across the swamp. I used
(28:36):
to fish and buy us where the swamp would meet,
like bonche Tree. There's some crazy crap and swamp water
and you're just starting to see some of it. And
stop it. Ever let anybody take your power from you.
Speaker 5 (29:00):
No, no, it is by the the motto keep come,
come along.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Always revealing, often entertaining. That's your Sounds of the day
for this Wednesday, March to twelfth. You have our Lord
twenty twenty five. This is your morning show with Michael
del Chrono on the air and on your iHeartRadio app.
That's where you're gonna find the talk back button if
you want to join the show. We'd love to hear
from you. Ukraine is agreed to a thirty day cease fire.
(29:27):
I thought, are you boss?
Speaker 4 (29:28):
Ukraine?
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Relations were destroyed and destroyed forever. The premiere of Ontario
Canada's apologized and he's putting all tariffs on. Oh wait, aute,
I thought we were in a tariff warn it was
gonna make us all poor and broke. Nothing is as
it appeared yesterday, and the House has passed the six
month funding bill to prevent the government that went I
believe two seventeen to two thirteen. I'm using my photographic memory,
(29:51):
so by four now, that's a tougher, tougher lift in
the United States Senate. I know that because John Decker
told me that yesterday. John Decker is joining us our
White House correspondent, John five years ago, the White House correspondent,
you broke a story about Donald Trump being nominated for
a Nobel Peace Prize. You caught up with the person
who nominated him. He doesn't feel the same way now,
(30:13):
does he.
Speaker 6 (30:15):
Well, he still describes himself as a big admirer of
Donald Trump. He's very much pro Maga, but he's also
very much pro Ukraine and he would like to see
the President provide more support to Ukraine. He won security
guarantees for Ukraine. He thinks that will give a further
(30:36):
lift to his candidacy for a Nobel Peace Prize. With
the Norwegian committee that ultimately decides who the Peace Prize
winner is. That ceremony takes place December of this year,
and this Norwegian member of Parliament was a person who nominated,
as you point out, Michael Donald Trump five years ago
for his work in securing the Abraham Accords, which normalized
(31:00):
between Israel and the United Arab Emirates.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Yeah, and then this term we look closer to Marco
Rubio making the announcement yesterday in Saudi Arabia that we've
got the Ukraine portion done, agreeing to with a thirty
day ceasefire with Russia. Now it's on to Moscow. I
don't know how this changes his view that there's a
much bigger story that his particular view. But if the
President can achieve this and finish this peace process and
(31:26):
with it security for Ukraine, might December be our first
glimpse at the President getting that Nobel Peace Prize. Because
I'm wondering how this guy's feeling today compared to yesterday
when you talked to him.
Speaker 6 (31:39):
Yeah, I mean, we chat online and we keep up
with each other over the course of the past five years.
Obviously he's pleased that there was some positive developments.
Speaker 4 (31:50):
Coming out of Saudi Arabia yesterday.
Speaker 6 (31:52):
But I've said this before, the President said it yesterday.
It takes two to tango. You need Russia to come
to the table. You need Russia to make some compromises,
some concessions, in the same.
Speaker 4 (32:03):
Way that Ukraine made some.
Speaker 6 (32:05):
Compromises and concessions yesterday in the meeting that took place
in Jed of Saudi Arabia.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
I know we stick to news and we don't do opinion,
but I don't think this falls under opinion. This is
a tough president to cover because you know, it's kind
of like the Ukraine meeting that everybody in the media said,
now US Ukraine relations are destroyed forever. Well, yesterday's proof
that wasn't true.
Speaker 6 (32:26):
I did a lot, Yeah, I didn't think so when
that happened.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Yeah, a lot of people, you know, would come to
this conclusion that conversation in the Oval office was uncomfortable
with the media and for everybody to see, would have
been completely normal behind closed doors. A lot of these
negotiations that are happening out loud for all to see
kind of create a roller coaster ride, but it really
doesn't change the outcome. And so you can jump on
(32:50):
a certain day against what's the president doing, why is
he saying it that way? Why is he playing it
this way? But in the end they tend to work out.
It makes him a tough president to cover.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Well, he is a tough president to cover, you know.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
Just bringing it.
Speaker 6 (33:03):
Back to what we were talking about, that Norwegian parliament
member said, one.
Speaker 4 (33:07):
Of the reasons why the Abraham.
Speaker 6 (33:09):
Accords were successful is because it was all done behind
closed doors, and he thinks that is something that is
instructive for this conflict in terms of negotiating behind closed doors,
not open to the public, and that way you can
get some.
Speaker 4 (33:25):
Movement from both sides.
Speaker 6 (33:26):
And we'll see whether the White House takes Christian tybring Jetty,
that parliament member up on that advice that he's given
the president.
Speaker 4 (33:34):
You know, I was he's very you.
Speaker 6 (33:36):
Know, like I said, we've got a good relationship. I
got him invited to the Victory Party and Palm Beach
in November. He was at the inauguration. I hooked him
up with that. He's a big fan of Donald Trump.
He just wants to see him provide more support for Ukraine.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Closing moments with John Deckra, a White House correspondent, Yeah,
I'm not bashing him at all, and I'm not really
bashing others. I'm just saying it's a very my gases,
you know, for some reason, like with the tariffs, and
even to some degree with U. Krank because remember what
the President said of the abundance of the heart. The
mouse speaks that whole exchange with JD. Vans and him
the president time did No. I'm glad this is happening
(34:13):
for everybody to see. It's as if he's choosing to
do this stuff in front of everybody and not behind
closed doors for a specific reason, maybe a reason we
don't understand today, but it'll make perfect sense a week
from now, a month from now, who knows, but it is.
I just wanted to just for the record, Boy, I've
covered a lot of presidents, You've covered eight as a
White House correspondent. Everybody's got to take a deep breath
(34:36):
with this guy, because some of this stuff is process
and method, not destination.
Speaker 6 (34:42):
Yeah, you can't jump to conclusions, you know the day
of I think that some people do that, and they
make the mistake of doing that. You know, even after
that blow up in the Oval Office, I didn't think
that was the end of the possibility of repairing a
relationship between President Trump and Presidents Lynskin. I think we're
moving in that direction actually.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
And now the toughest part getting Russia to agree. Appreciate it,
John Decker. As always, we're all in this together. This
is your Morning Show with Michael Ndheld, Joan Now
