because we're in this together.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
This is your morning show with Michael gel Jordan.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Want to welcome to the Breakfast Table twelve seventy am

And for those that prefer to do your pontificating and writing,
(01:27):
there's always Michael d at iHeartMedia dot com. And we
welcome your emails. All right, eight minutes after the hour,
over one hundred and seventy people remain unaccounted for, and
we now approach almost exactly a week since the deadly flooding.
NASA has been using some of the Houston area resources
to assist with the search and recovery efforts. The former
(01:48):
physician White House physician for President Joe Biden did not
cooperate in a deposition before a House hearing, pleading the
fifth to all questions, potentially the greatest scandal in American
political history. No answers from the doc, that's for sure,
and nearly two hundred Democratic lawmakers are supporting a lawsuit
(02:09):
against the President and his administration for use of emergency
powers to impose tariffs. And speaking of tariffs, we had
a rough Monday and Tuesday on Wall Street.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Slight recovery yesterday.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
How much of this is related to the certainty or
what is growing as a certain uncertainty with the tariffs.
To that, we turned to our Money with David Bonson
from the Bonson Financial Group and the Dividend Cafe, which,
by the way, I read last week's Dividend Cafe and
I got to give you an a triple plus. That
(02:42):
was fascinating. The whole conversation about bubbles, well, that is a.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Very kind thing to say. I'll take the grade. I
wish I had gotten more of those in school.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
I think you turned out all right. The Cafe you
do a writing every week. This one was bubbles and
what is a bubble? Air trapped in water? The bubble burst,
the air is released and the water evaporates. But that's
not how bubbles are in the economy and or in investing,
are they?
Speaker 5 (03:13):
Well?
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Look, I mean the bubble issue that I am most
focused on right now in Diviny Cafe from an investor standpoint,
is a question as to whether or not we're getting
ahead of ourselves the valuations on some of this AI
and big tech type of stuff. What I don't question
(03:34):
is whether or not the government is in a bubble
with their own spending and whether or not the indebtedness
of the country is bubbled to a place that is
very uncomfortable. But the hard part, you know, an investing
capital is not just identifying these things or being able
to sort of project what's going on, but then developing
(03:55):
a solution. You know, what is it one is going
to do about it? And there are a lot of
people that think the thing to do when you identify
a risk is to run away. And the problem with
that is it presupposes something that is totally untrue, which
is that you're ever ever in a position where there
isn't a risk. There's always a risk out there. And
(04:16):
if one said, I hate this analogy because it's a
little bit crude, but you know, there are people that
are so afraid of getting murdered that they decide they're
going to kill themselves instead. And what I mean by
that is is that they basically will avoid the things
they ought to be doing with their money because they're
(04:37):
afraid of some loss or risk with their money, and
so we have to try to you know, identify the
risks and then mitigate them appropriately.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Well, there's also the view of it too, right, I think,
I go back to the OJ trial.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
The worst thing about the OJ trial.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Was that that was a trial for whatever reason and
the juice iconic athlete actor commentator, so everybody watched it,
and so then their view of the justice system or
the court's credibility was based on that one trial, not
(05:17):
the sum of all trials. Bubbles are that way too, right.
We remember housing bubbles and dot com bubbles, and so you.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Know, it makes us afraid.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
It makes all bubbles seem like their instant death. But
there are a lot of overvaluing littler bubbles that aren't
to be viewed as fearful.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
Right.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
Well, look, even those types of things, there was never
a reason for an investor to have to be exposed.
Speaker 6 (05:46):
To the bubble or all in on the bubble.
Speaker 7 (05:50):
You know.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
I was incredibly critical of people that bought into the
nonsense that somebody made fifty thousand dollars a year could
afford a nine hundred thousand dollars condo in Las Vegas
with no money down. But that didn't mean I was
against people buying a house having a place to live.
You know, I didn't believe pets dot com was worth
four billion dollars in nineteen ninety nine, but I certainly
(06:13):
believe that we ought to have a technology sector. So
I guess the old clichet is you just don't throw
the baby out of the bathwater, you know. Right now,
and Vidia has a four trillion dollar market cap, the
company is worth four trillion dollars. That is three point
six percent of global GDP. Cisco in nineteen ninety nine,
(06:38):
which then proceeded to go.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Down eighty percent.
Speaker 4 (06:42):
When it went down eighty percent, its earnings went up
every year by thirteen percent. Today Cisco is still down
twenty five percent from where it was twenty five years ago.
Cisco was one point six percent of global GDP. Okay,
So Nvidio, you could say, is an amazing company, and
(07:06):
there's amazing things happening in the tech sector and amazing
things to be invested in, and still say, at four
trillion dollars, I don't really think this risk reward is
very favorable. So those are the types of calculations one
has to do.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
So what can we learn in this whole lesson and
apply to AI, because I think AI is the one.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
To focus on.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
Well.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
I think that there's a number of things.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
There's a moral thing in AI, a cultural thing, a
political thing. From an investment standpoint, I think the easiest
thing for me to say is, do not believe that
everybody knows exactly how it's going to play out, because
they do not. There are going to be companies that
people think are AI darlings that are going to go bankrupt.
(07:53):
There are companies that no one's talking about that are
going to make a fortune in AI ultimately, whether or
not the hundreds upon hundreds of billions of dollars some
of these so called hyperscalers are spending on capital expenditures
for AI, it's a question mark what that return on
that investment's going to be. And it's also possible that
(08:15):
there ends up being a great return on investment, but
that it's different than people think they are spending first,
asking questions later. I happen to believe that, like the Internet,
like the microprocessor, like the cloud, like almost every great
technological development of my lifetime, that the ultimate use is
(08:36):
not the companies that make the thing it's the companies
that use the thing, right, and so I anticipate AI
will simply add to efficiency and profitability to some degree
for the companies that end up using it. But I
just don't I don't think you want to put your
whole portfolio in companies that quote unquote.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Make AI anymore than beanie babies or other mistakes that
have been made in the past days. You want to
go to Dividendcafe dot com. He does a weekly writing
every week and it's always a great read. All right,
let's talk about the rough two days and then the
letters that are going out are still going out, deals
that are framework only but not done yet. Is this
(09:17):
whole tariff situation an uncertainty or is it becoming more
and more a certain uncertainty.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Well, it is still uncertainty, there's no question about that.
Although I'm in the camp and I believe I'm right
about this that it's a The part that people were
most uncertain and worried about three months ago is rather clear,
which is that President.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Trump was humbled by markets.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
And so while he will still continue to make the
threats and make the tweets and send the press releases
and in some cases still go through certain things. The
big kind of unknown risk of how bad it could get.
That part was bottomless before, and markets went down five
thousand points in four days. But then everything we've seen
(10:08):
since says, Okay, President Trump is not going to let
the bottom fall out and create a recession and go
into a smooth holly trade war. And you know, I
don't want to say this because it sounds like controlling,
but the fact of the matter is it's actually a
much better resolution in the thing for China than people
(10:31):
would have expected, in the sense that he's trading more
with China. So I've been saying this, you know, for
about a month now that I think the people that
should be upset about it are not the free traders
like me. It's the people that actually believed him that
we were going to decouple from China. But again, what
fifty percent tariff on copper would be catastrophic if it
(10:55):
really happened. Markets just don't believe it's going to happen.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
A two hundred.
Speaker 5 (10:59):
Percent tar from pharmaceuticals.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Would be catastrophic if it really happened. Market still believe
it's going to happen.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
So I do think he'll get some good deals, and
I think he'll get some not so good deals, and
I think he'll.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Be announcing more things in the month ahead. But I
don't know if that answers your question or.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Not, because there is uncertainty, is you know it does
from this standpoint, My gut is that mass improvements with China,
mass improvements with Europe, mass improvements with Vietnam. Probably some
real losses in other places. But the net net. I mean,
I keep looking at this waiting for him to just let.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
It go away.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Abort is a strong word, but I mean, you know,
abort the mission, just and let it fade into the sunset.
And maybe that's what they're trying to find. A landing
pad for the copper scares me. I mean for people
making a living and using these materials, this would be catastrophic.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
They're out of business.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Yeah, by the way, people that make them living with copper.
As far as people that use copper, that would be
three hundred and thirty million America people.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
All right, Uh, these are things that can't be understood
in a single uh, you know, interview. And that's why
we visit weekly, and that's why you do the dividend cafe.
I want to end where I began. What's the what's
the writing this week? Because I think it'll come out
to today, won't it?
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Well, it's about tomorrow, and so we did it last
week on Thursday, just cuts before it to July, but
it's every single Friday Dividingcafe dot Com. And tomorrow I'm
doing a very comprehensive assessment of the One Big Beautiful
Bill Act. And this will be another opportunity for.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Me to get hate mail.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
The people tell me that I'm I'm way too critical
of the president, and then half the eight May I
will say, why are you not more critical of the president?
Speaker 3 (12:48):
And that will prove to me that I must sit
on something right.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Well, it's like, take it from me, it's difficult to
call balls and strikes and be an American uh, and
be mostly supportive of a president which is reasonable and
still grateful for his presidency versus the alternative, but still
have differences.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
But we live in a matrix. It doesn't always allow
the grace for that.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
I'm glad you got the boldness and the expertise to
tell the truth Dividendcafe dot Com and of course weekly
here on your Morning show, David Bonson. Thank you so much,
Thanks so much, God bless you.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
This is your Morning show with Michael del Chrono.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
Welcome to Thursday, July the tenth. President Trump, Well, let's
just say he doesn't hold a very high opinion of
the former CIA or FBI director.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Mark Mietfield fills this in.
Speaker 6 (13:36):
Trump was asked about a Fox News report that the
Department of Justice is opening a criminal probe in the
former FBI chief James Comy and CIA director John Brennan.
Speaker 8 (13:45):
A very just honest pep here crooking is how.
Speaker 6 (13:47):
The pair are reportedly being looked at for potential wrongdoing
related to the investigation into claims of Russian interference in
the twenty sixteen election. Trump said he doesn't know much
about the reporting, but whatever happens happens.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Mayfield Susie Wiles, white House chief of Staff, says President
Trump and tech billionaire Elon Musk had a great thing
until they didn't have a great thing.
Speaker 9 (14:08):
Trump and Musk engaged in a public feud last month
after the billionaire left his role at the White House
and blasted the Republican back to megabill recently signed into
law by the President. Wiles was asked how she would
describe the relationship and express that she didn't understand what
went wrong between them.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
I'm Brian Shuk Diddy.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Combs wins a legal victory in a civil lawsuit while
awaiting sentencing in New York for transporting people for prostitution.
Everybody felt like the tougher rough cases were going to
be the civil cases. Well so far, he's want to know,
Sarah le Kessel reports.
Speaker 10 (14:43):
TMZ is reporting that a judge has decided to remove
significant rape allegations from a lawsuit filed on behalf of
April Lampros. She's accused the fifty five year old music
mogul of raping her multiple times back in the nineteen nineties.
Comb's legal team is denying Lampras's claims, calling them baseless,
and has filed emotion to try to get the whole
(15:05):
lawsuit dismissed.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
I'm Sarah Lee Kessler.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Mittela is launching a barbie with type one diabetes, including
a glucose monitor. The toy maker is expanding representation with
a new doll and said that it allows children to
see themselves in the doll while also encouraging play that
extends beyond the child's own Lift experience. The Barbie Fashionistas
doll with Type one diabetes is available for purchase through
(15:30):
Walmart and Amazon for ten dollars and ninety nine cents,
and vaping ken On.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Oxygen sold separately. Except the guy did you make that up?
I mean all right, missus Patrick from Christiana, Tennessee.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
My morning show is your Morning Show with Michael dill Jorno.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Hi, It's Michael.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Your Morning Show can be heard on great radios across
the country, like News Talk ninety two point one and
six hundred WREC in Memphis, Tennessee, or thirteen hundred The
Patriot in Tulsa or Talk six fifty KSTE in Sacramento, California.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
We invite you to listen.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Live while you're getting ready in the morning and to
take us along for the drive to work. But as
we always say, better late than ever. Thanks for joining
us for the podcast. If you're just waking up, Over
one hundred and seventy people remain unaccounted for, and that's
almost a week now after the flooding in Central Texas.
NASA using some Houston area resources to assist with the
search and recovery. Former President Biden's White House physician not
(16:36):
cooperating with Congress, and one in three teenagers are now
pre diabetic. Oh and if you're just waking up, we
can't have your morning show without your voice.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
Let's start with Big John. So here's the scuttle butt.
Speaker 7 (16:51):
In New York, they pay eight times the amount of
money you raise during your candidacy. Curtis is not going
to give the money back. But the rumor rays that
Cuomo may give the money back and drop out. When
Curtis kicks in his money, he may make some noise.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Well, he'd have.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
A lot of noise to make if you gave him
all of Cuomo's votes, which you're expecting all of a
Democrat governor's support to go to a Republican radio personality.
Even then you would still be just a point ahead
(17:32):
of Zorn Mandani. But yeah, I think it's gonna take
a little bit more than noise. Keith, I believe Kfyi
and Phoenix.
Speaker 11 (17:40):
Yeah, I'm going to correct your guess on one point.
I think what ruined California was Ronald Reagan because he
declared that amnesty in the nineteen eighties. That's actually what
flipped California and made it a one party system. That's
why we have a blue California today. Before that, it
was reliably Republican.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
Love my Phoenix listeners. People forget this.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
There was a reason why we ended up with a
Reagan Bush ticket because at the convention it was a
dead heat and what was holding Ronald Reagan back was
his positions on amnesty. And then how ironic is it
that HW Bush's son w Bush, who also was a
(18:24):
little weak on the border for conservatives perspective, would later
be president as well.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
Kato next, I think on.
Speaker 5 (18:31):
The Epstein files, Trump has become a mastermind of the media.
He knows if he pushes away, looks incompetent and can't
get it done, his administration will be exposed by those
who just can't stand him. They'll leak, they'll dig, and
they'll expose the truth, do the dirty work for him,
and he never gets Dan's dirty. What do you think
(18:53):
of that?
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Ummm, I don't think the glass is half fall or
I'm not joking.
Speaker 12 (19:04):
I don't think we should be taking the advice from
a group of people who can't define what a woman is.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
That was just complete fa.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Always revealing, often entertaining. Welcome to the sounds of the day. Well,
these were the sounds of yesterday, everybody.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
Telling us Joe's just fine.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Now, remember, probably the most scandalous news of the week
is the memo leak from Vice President Kamala Harris telling
everybody the f and democracy's at stake, get in line
and support the president. Which she did was take out
all the candidates who would have challenged him in the primary,
and she convinced them all to get behind the president
(19:50):
in the great lie and then conveniently from the inside
John Podesta. By the way, Kamala Harris was the Clinton
apparatus candidate. She was the first out in the primary,
the biggest failure, and they planned one sneaking into the
White House with Joe Biden in the shadow campaign and
then giving it to her. They eventually waited four years
(20:11):
and gave it to her with all of his primary
electoral votes. What a scam that was. But she did
manage to get everybody in line, and so the sounds
of yesterday were.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Joe Biden's not old, Joe Biden's not cut. He's the
sharpest guy we know.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
I've taken three significant intense neurological exams, or.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
In each case is recently shud.
Speaker 13 (20:44):
Yes, I don't think that there is a huge cover
up underweight here, and I frankly don't think that matters.
Speaker 4 (20:52):
He is sharp, intensely probing and detail oriented and focused.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
He is the sharpest as ever.
Speaker 13 (20:59):
There is nothing to these challenges, these suggestions that somehow
he's not sharp and he's not capable.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Joe Biden has a vision. This is a very sharp president.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
The president is absolutely sharp to fit on top of
his game.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
He seems sharp to me.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
We all get a little older, that's what happens, but
you also gain that insight.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
And he's ten years older than he was ten years ago.
Speaker 8 (21:20):
Yes, the problem the president is extremely effective.
Speaker 13 (21:25):
This is a man who is sharp, who is on
top of his game, who knows what's.
Speaker 14 (21:28):
Going on, and he's really good at being president in
the United States.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
The president is all the way there.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
And the answer is unequivocally, yes, he is sharp.
Speaker 15 (21:36):
He probes if he brings the wisdom, the knowledge, the judgment.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
President is more than up to the stop. There's not
a problem.
Speaker 7 (21:44):
I'm not lying.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
If there ever is a problem, Yeah, do you think
that you could go tell the American public? Of course
if necessary, but there's no need for that.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
I mean, it's literally the entire cabinet, the vice president,
the eventual vice presidential came edit it, the media, everybody
lying to you, and the leaked memo shows you exactly
who told them to lie. Now, if you talk to
the president's physician in a deposition under oath in a
(22:19):
House hearing, and you asked the very simple question, were
you ever told to lie about the president's condition?
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Here is the answer, doctor O'Connor. Were you ever told
to lie about the President's health on the advisy Council?
Speaker 4 (22:33):
I must be expected the decline to answer based upon
physician based privilege and in reliance some I right under
the fifth Man of the Constitution.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
I am not a lawyer. I must follow my lawyer's
advice in this matter.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
I like when the chairman of the hearing left the
hearing room and walked slowly up to the press this
clip from BBS, and when asked a very simple question,
what the hell just happened?
Speaker 3 (23:05):
I could tell you exactly what happened. Doctor o'coter pleaded
the Fifth Amendment.
Speaker 8 (23:13):
And I'm gonna read the first two questions that were asked,
Were you ever told to lie.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
About the president's health. He pleaded the Fifth Amendment. He
would not answer that question.
Speaker 6 (23:28):
The second question, did you ever believe President Biden was
unfit to execute his duties?
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Again?
Speaker 8 (23:36):
President Biden's White House position pleaded the Fifth Amendment.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
You you could easily make the case this is the
greatest scandal in American political history. First of all, a
shadow campaign to steal the election, then the hiding of
(24:01):
a cognitively impaired president for four years, and then the
ignoring of the voters and waiting conveniently until enough electoral
votes had been accumulated to have a debate prior to
the convention to then expose his cognitive impairment for the
purposes of removing him and just handing it all to
Kamala Harris. And they thought they were going to hand
(24:22):
the country to her as well. But make no mistake
about it, the biggest scandal is a fake four year
presidency and the still unanswered, more compelling question who really
was running this country? And perhaps in that fifth Amendment
the non answer is your greatest answer from his doctor.
(24:50):
But where do we go from here? Let's hope this
doesn't take the trail of Epstein JFK MLK and RFK.
Probably the most unanswered question of the year is what
the heck happened? I mean, you had Elon Musk make
that terrible investment in X in order to keep the
(25:10):
shadow campaign from happening again. They controlled narratives through the media,
and then they silenced opposition views by controlling technocracy and
social media. Elon Musk busted that game up by buying X.
Then that so historically unique coalition Telsey gabberd RFK Junior,
(25:32):
both Democrat primary candidates, now in a coalition with Donald
Trump along with Elon Musk. He would later bring Google
with him, and Amazon with him and all the technocrats,
and then Elon Musk presiding over Doge to reveal overspending
misspending abuse and then it just all blows up. The
(26:01):
hush hush of a fight with descent, then the formal
goodbye from the Oval Office, then the tirade and tantrum
online from Musk, even bringing up Donald Trump. You're not
gonna learn anything about Epstein because he's all in it.
And then of course the ultimate rebellion, trying to start
(26:22):
a ross pero third party, which would not ever win
and at its very best would just hurt everybody that
is doing exactly, maybe not the exact way, but exactly
what Elon Musk wants to do and put back in
(26:44):
power the very people who created the corruption he revealed.
I mean, what the hell happened? How do we go
from him and his kid playing in the Oval office,
jumping up and down, doing more, from arc signs speaking
in cabinet meetings to this, Well, that's a very good question,
(27:07):
and the right person to ask would be Trump's chief
of staff, Susie Wilds, daughter of Pat Summerle, And so
she was asked, the heck happened with these two?
Speaker 15 (27:21):
Elon had so much to offer us. He knew things
we didn't know. He knew people and technologies that we
didn't know. It was a it was a great thing
when it was a great thing, and I had a
very I think of a very troublesome ending.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Why do you think that happened? I don't know.
Speaker 15 (27:42):
I don't understand it. I don't know. I know that
what has been said doesn't ring accurate to me, but
I don't know. I enjoyed working with Elon. I think
he's a fascinating person and sees the world differently, and
I think that's probably what the president saw too, just
(28:03):
a little bit different than the average Joe, but it
certainly came to not a good ending.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Well, there's an understatement.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
We talked about the president having a cabinet meeting, and
the way the president has cabinet meeting, it's very transparent,
the preces is invited in, everything is filmed, So we
knew there were gonna be a lot of Epstein questions
and other questions.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Here's another one from Peter.
Speaker 14 (28:27):
Doucy, James Comy, and John Brennan now under criminal investigation
related to the Trump Rush of probe. Do you want
to see these two guys behind bars?
Speaker 8 (28:37):
Well, I know nothing about it other than what I
read today, but I will tell you I think they're
very dishonest people. I think they're crooked as hell, and
maybe they have to pay a price for that. I
believe they are truly bad people and dishonest people. So
whatever happens happens.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Donald Trump with not very good work. We started the
show today in the Platinum or if you want to
go back and listen to the podcast, looking at in
our polls of plenty, the view of the Big Beautiful
Bill and how it basically is just a view of
the matrix. Nobody's read these thousand pages. You have the
(29:19):
far left anti narrative, you have the rights, big, beautiful narrative,
and that's all you're getting a reflection of where do
we stand with everything that's happening with securing the border
and deporting dangerous people, because it really is forming the territory,
(29:40):
the turf where a potential civil war could be fought
between the government over half the country and inner cities
and defiance to Harry and we go and see nn.
I mean, they can get enough rhetoric out there to
get peopleeople to ambush ice agents, which are really shots
(30:04):
being fired in the civil war. But as for the
American people, it's really a defining issue, and they've made
up their mind all.
Speaker 16 (30:14):
Immigrants who are here illegally fifty five percent of the
New York Times Marquette sixty four percent, CBS News fifty
per ABC News with a slightly different question fifty six percent.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
So what you're.
Speaker 16 (30:24):
Seeing essentially here is very clear indication that a majority
of Americans, in fact, when they're asked this one question,
which I believe gets that the underlying feelings do in
fact want to port all immigrants who are here illegally.
There's no arguing with these different numbers because they're all
essentially the same across four different posters.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Now, we always said that the very first round, I
mean rounding up dangerous human traffickers, drug traffickers, gangs, violent members, rapists, murderers.
You're looking at seventy to eighty percent support, round them
up and ship them out. And I don't think America
(31:04):
cares if they go to Alligator alcatraz or, if you
reopen the real alcatraz Or, do it in a foreign country.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
I said.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
The trickier thing is going to be what about for
all who have entered illegally? And you're looking at fifty
five to sixty four percent support for that. They'll fight
over the big beautiful bill. There's no fighting over the big,
beautiful secured border. America's made its mind up that much
(31:34):
is a Trump victory.
Speaker 13 (31:38):
People who majored in online activism with a minor and
puberty box little bit.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Any of you in the media clearly missed the.
Speaker 5 (31:48):
Art of the deal.
Speaker 7 (31:49):
It's going to work out, man.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
That's your Sounds of the Day.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
It's your Morning Show with Michael del Journo.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Royo and Nieler national correspondence here talk about tips in
a second, but Rory any significant updates on the search
and recovery efforts.
Speaker 12 (32:04):
No, not, in particular from the overnight hours. Obviously they're
still trying to, you know, find as many bodies as
they can. But somewhere found ten fifteen thirty miles from
where they were swept into the that Guadalupe River. So
it's a challenge.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
I said this when you know, I buy too many cars.
Speaker 3 (32:26):
And I go out to restaurants too much.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
The rise in prices of an average meal cost at
a restaurant and the price of vehicles has been just
astonishing in the last decade, unrecognizable. And I always said,
you know, they're just going to keep raising the price
of these meals, and don't forget the tips go up
with it, because it becomes twenty percent of the cost.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
You know, should we be adjusting a tip?
Speaker 1 (32:50):
Now add the big beautiful bill and now they're not
going to be getting taxed on their tips?
Speaker 3 (32:55):
Should we? And do Americans plan to adjust their gratuity levels?
Would you?
Speaker 5 (33:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 12 (33:01):
This was an interesting question that was posed by the
food critic at the Washington Post, laying out the case
just as you did, saying, well, look, if they get
to take home more of their money at the end
of the day, maybe we need to change the baseline.
Speaker 5 (33:13):
Right.
Speaker 12 (33:13):
We always assumed fifteen percent was rock bottom right for
a tip, but maybe rock bottom should be ten percent
now if they get to keep more of the tip
that it's based on. Judging by the feedback, it looks
like Americans won't be changing their habits at all. But
I will say they all almost almost every comment said
that we're all being asked for tips way too often
(33:35):
in situations where wait, why are we paying a tip
for I'm here at the counter, I'm doing the order,
and you're still asking for a tip.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
I think there's gonna be some adjustments. I think the
reality may differ from those answers. Roy O'Neil greg reporting,
as always.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michael ndheld Joano
Hey, gang, it's me Michael. You can listen to your
morning show live. Make us a part of your morning
routine or your drive to work companion on great stations
like Talk Radio ninety eight point three and fifteen ten
WLAC in Nashville, Tupelo's News and Talk one oh one
point one and ten sixty WKMQ, and how about Talk
six fifty KSTE in Sacramento, California. Love to have you
(00:21):
listen live, but are grateful you're here now for the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Enjoy starting your morning off right.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
A new way of talk, a new way of understanding,
because we're in this together.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
This is your morning show with Michael gel Jordan.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Want to welcome to the Breakfast Table twelve seventy am
The Patriot wus W in Buffalo, New York. Wonderful to
have Buffalo on board, and it's wonderful the Buffalo finally
has a conservative talk station. We're honored to start the
morning off on the Patriot in Buffalo. We also welcome Tucson,
Arizona AM seven ninety k NST, the Great k NST,
(01:04):
to the your morning show family. Now we don't just
call it your morning show, We live it. Don't forget
there is a microphone. If you're listening on the iHeartRadio app,
that's a talkback button. We don't believe in wasting your
time and you rotting on hold waiting to make a
comment or ask a question. You do it instantly, We
get it instantly, and we can share it with the
entire class. Take your place at this morning's kitchen table.
And for those that prefer to do your pontificating and writing,
(01:27):
there's always Michael d at iHeartMedia dot com. And we
welcome your emails. All right, eight minutes after the hour,
over one hundred and seventy people remain unaccounted for, and
we now approach almost exactly a week since the deadly flooding.
NASA has been using some of the Houston area resources
to assist with the search and recovery efforts. The former
(01:48):
physician White House physician for President Joe Biden did not
cooperate in a deposition before a House hearing, pleading the
fifth to all questions, potentially the greatest scandal in American
political history. No answers from the doc, that's for sure,
and nearly two hundred Democratic lawmakers are supporting a lawsuit
(02:09):
against the President and his administration for use of emergency
powers to impose tariffs. And speaking of tariffs, we had
a rough Monday and Tuesday on Wall Street.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Slight recovery yesterday.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
How much of this is related to the certainty or
what is growing as a certain uncertainty with the tariffs.
To that, we turned to our Money with David Bonson
from the Bonson Financial Group and the Dividend Cafe, which,
by the way, I read last week's Dividend Cafe and
I got to give you an a triple plus. That
(02:42):
was fascinating. The whole conversation about bubbles, well, that is a.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Very kind thing to say. I'll take the grade. I
wish I had gotten more of those in school.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
I think you turned out all right. The Cafe you
do a writing every week. This one was bubbles and
what is a bubble? Air trapped in water? The bubble burst,
the air is released and the water evaporates. But that's
not how bubbles are in the economy and or in investing,
are they?
Speaker 5 (03:13):
Well?
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Look, I mean the bubble issue that I am most
focused on right now in Diviny Cafe from an investor standpoint,
is a question as to whether or not we're getting
ahead of ourselves the valuations on some of this AI
and big tech type of stuff. What I don't question
(03:34):
is whether or not the government is in a bubble
with their own spending and whether or not the indebtedness
of the country is bubbled to a place that is
very uncomfortable. But the hard part, you know, an investing
capital is not just identifying these things or being able
to sort of project what's going on, but then developing
(03:55):
a solution. You know, what is it one is going
to do about it? And there are a lot of
people that think the thing to do when you identify
a risk is to run away. And the problem with
that is it presupposes something that is totally untrue, which
is that you're ever ever in a position where there
isn't a risk. There's always a risk out there. And
(04:16):
if one said, I hate this analogy because it's a
little bit crude, but you know, there are people that
are so afraid of getting murdered that they decide they're
going to kill themselves instead. And what I mean by
that is is that they basically will avoid the things
they ought to be doing with their money because they're
(04:37):
afraid of some loss or risk with their money, and
so we have to try to you know, identify the
risks and then mitigate them appropriately.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Well, there's also the view of it too, right, I think,
I go back to the OJ trial.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
The worst thing about the OJ trial.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Was that that was a trial for whatever reason and
the juice iconic athlete actor commentator, so everybody watched it,
and so then their view of the justice system or
the court's credibility was based on that one trial, not
(05:17):
the sum of all trials. Bubbles are that way too, right.
We remember housing bubbles and dot com bubbles, and so you.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Know, it makes us afraid.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
It makes all bubbles seem like their instant death. But
there are a lot of overvaluing littler bubbles that aren't
to be viewed as fearful.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
Right.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
Well, look, even those types of things, there was never
a reason for an investor to have to be exposed.
Speaker 6 (05:46):
To the bubble or all in on the bubble.
Speaker 7 (05:50):
You know.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
I was incredibly critical of people that bought into the
nonsense that somebody made fifty thousand dollars a year could
afford a nine hundred thousand dollars condo in Las Vegas
with no money down. But that didn't mean I was
against people buying a house having a place to live.
You know, I didn't believe pets dot com was worth
four billion dollars in nineteen ninety nine, but I certainly
(06:13):
believe that we ought to have a technology sector. So
I guess the old clichet is you just don't throw
the baby out of the bathwater, you know. Right now,
and Vidia has a four trillion dollar market cap, the
company is worth four trillion dollars. That is three point
six percent of global GDP. Cisco in nineteen ninety nine,
(06:38):
which then proceeded to go.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Down eighty percent.
Speaker 4 (06:42):
When it went down eighty percent, its earnings went up
every year by thirteen percent. Today Cisco is still down
twenty five percent from where it was twenty five years ago.
Cisco was one point six percent of global GDP. Okay,
So Nvidio, you could say, is an amazing company, and
(07:06):
there's amazing things happening in the tech sector and amazing
things to be invested in, and still say, at four
trillion dollars, I don't really think this risk reward is
very favorable. So those are the types of calculations one
has to do.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
So what can we learn in this whole lesson and
apply to AI, because I think AI is the one.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
To focus on.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
Well.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
I think that there's a number of things.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
There's a moral thing in AI, a cultural thing, a
political thing. From an investment standpoint, I think the easiest
thing for me to say is, do not believe that
everybody knows exactly how it's going to play out, because
they do not. There are going to be companies that
people think are AI darlings that are going to go bankrupt.
(07:53):
There are companies that no one's talking about that are
going to make a fortune in AI ultimately, whether or
not the hundreds upon hundreds of billions of dollars some
of these so called hyperscalers are spending on capital expenditures
for AI, it's a question mark what that return on
that investment's going to be. And it's also possible that
(08:15):
there ends up being a great return on investment, but
that it's different than people think they are spending first,
asking questions later. I happen to believe that, like the Internet,
like the microprocessor, like the cloud, like almost every great
technological development of my lifetime, that the ultimate use is
(08:36):
not the companies that make the thing it's the companies
that use the thing, right, and so I anticipate AI
will simply add to efficiency and profitability to some degree
for the companies that end up using it. But I
just don't I don't think you want to put your
whole portfolio in companies that quote unquote.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Make AI anymore than beanie babies or other mistakes that
have been made in the past days. You want to
go to Dividendcafe dot com. He does a weekly writing
every week and it's always a great read. All right,
let's talk about the rough two days and then the
letters that are going out are still going out, deals
that are framework only but not done yet. Is this
(09:17):
whole tariff situation an uncertainty or is it becoming more
and more a certain uncertainty.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Well, it is still uncertainty, there's no question about that.
Although I'm in the camp and I believe I'm right
about this that it's a The part that people were
most uncertain and worried about three months ago is rather clear,
which is that President.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Trump was humbled by markets.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
And so while he will still continue to make the
threats and make the tweets and send the press releases
and in some cases still go through certain things. The
big kind of unknown risk of how bad it could get.
That part was bottomless before, and markets went down five
thousand points in four days. But then everything we've seen
(10:08):
since says, Okay, President Trump is not going to let
the bottom fall out and create a recession and go
into a smooth holly trade war. And you know, I
don't want to say this because it sounds like controlling,
but the fact of the matter is it's actually a
much better resolution in the thing for China than people
(10:31):
would have expected, in the sense that he's trading more
with China. So I've been saying this, you know, for
about a month now that I think the people that
should be upset about it are not the free traders
like me. It's the people that actually believed him that
we were going to decouple from China. But again, what
fifty percent tariff on copper would be catastrophic if it
(10:55):
really happened. Markets just don't believe it's going to happen.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
A two hundred.
Speaker 5 (10:59):
Percent tar from pharmaceuticals.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Would be catastrophic if it really happened. Market still believe
it's going to happen.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
So I do think he'll get some good deals, and
I think he'll get some not so good deals, and
I think he'll.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Be announcing more things in the month ahead. But I
don't know if that answers your question or.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Not, because there is uncertainty, is you know it does
from this standpoint, My gut is that mass improvements with China,
mass improvements with Europe, mass improvements with Vietnam. Probably some
real losses in other places. But the net net. I mean,
I keep looking at this waiting for him to just let.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
It go away.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Abort is a strong word, but I mean, you know,
abort the mission, just and let it fade into the sunset.
And maybe that's what they're trying to find. A landing
pad for the copper scares me. I mean for people
making a living and using these materials, this would be catastrophic.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
They're out of business.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Yeah, by the way, people that make them living with copper.
As far as people that use copper, that would be
three hundred and thirty million America people.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
All right, Uh, these are things that can't be understood
in a single uh, you know, interview. And that's why
we visit weekly, and that's why you do the dividend cafe.
I want to end where I began. What's the what's
the writing this week? Because I think it'll come out
to today, won't it?
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Well, it's about tomorrow, and so we did it last
week on Thursday, just cuts before it to July, but
it's every single Friday Dividingcafe dot Com. And tomorrow I'm
doing a very comprehensive assessment of the One Big Beautiful
Bill Act. And this will be another opportunity for.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Me to get hate mail.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
The people tell me that I'm I'm way too critical
of the president, and then half the eight May I
will say, why are you not more critical of the president?
Speaker 3 (12:48):
And that will prove to me that I must sit
on something right.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Well, it's like, take it from me, it's difficult to
call balls and strikes and be an American uh, and
be mostly supportive of a president which is reasonable and
still grateful for his presidency versus the alternative, but still
have differences.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
But we live in a matrix. It doesn't always allow
the grace for that.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
I'm glad you got the boldness and the expertise to
tell the truth Dividendcafe dot Com and of course weekly
here on your Morning show, David Bonson. Thank you so much,
Thanks so much, God bless you.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
This is your Morning show with Michael del Chrono.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
Welcome to Thursday, July the tenth. President Trump, Well, let's
just say he doesn't hold a very high opinion of
the former CIA or FBI director.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Mark Mietfield fills this in.
Speaker 6 (13:36):
Trump was asked about a Fox News report that the
Department of Justice is opening a criminal probe in the
former FBI chief James Comy and CIA director John Brennan.
Speaker 8 (13:45):
A very just honest pep here crooking is how.
Speaker 6 (13:47):
The pair are reportedly being looked at for potential wrongdoing
related to the investigation into claims of Russian interference in
the twenty sixteen election. Trump said he doesn't know much
about the reporting, but whatever happens happens.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Mayfield Susie Wiles, white House chief of Staff, says President
Trump and tech billionaire Elon Musk had a great thing
until they didn't have a great thing.
Speaker 9 (14:08):
Trump and Musk engaged in a public feud last month
after the billionaire left his role at the White House
and blasted the Republican back to megabill recently signed into
law by the President. Wiles was asked how she would
describe the relationship and express that she didn't understand what
went wrong between them.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
I'm Brian Shuk Diddy.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Combs wins a legal victory in a civil lawsuit while
awaiting sentencing in New York for transporting people for prostitution.
Everybody felt like the tougher rough cases were going to
be the civil cases. Well so far, he's want to know,
Sarah le Kessel reports.
Speaker 10 (14:43):
TMZ is reporting that a judge has decided to remove
significant rape allegations from a lawsuit filed on behalf of
April Lampros. She's accused the fifty five year old music
mogul of raping her multiple times back in the nineteen nineties.
Comb's legal team is denying Lampras's claims, calling them baseless,
and has filed emotion to try to get the whole
(15:05):
lawsuit dismissed.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
I'm Sarah Lee Kessler.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Mittela is launching a barbie with type one diabetes, including
a glucose monitor. The toy maker is expanding representation with
a new doll and said that it allows children to
see themselves in the doll while also encouraging play that
extends beyond the child's own Lift experience. The Barbie Fashionistas
doll with Type one diabetes is available for purchase through
(15:30):
Walmart and Amazon for ten dollars and ninety nine cents,
and vaping ken On.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Oxygen sold separately. Except the guy did you make that up?
I mean all right, missus Patrick from Christiana, Tennessee.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
My morning show is your Morning Show with Michael dill Jorno.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Hi, It's Michael.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Your Morning Show can be heard on great radios across
the country, like News Talk ninety two point one and
six hundred WREC in Memphis, Tennessee, or thirteen hundred The
Patriot in Tulsa or Talk six fifty KSTE in Sacramento, California.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
We invite you to listen.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Live while you're getting ready in the morning and to
take us along for the drive to work. But as
we always say, better late than ever. Thanks for joining
us for the podcast. If you're just waking up, Over
one hundred and seventy people remain unaccounted for, and that's
almost a week now after the flooding in Central Texas.
NASA using some Houston area resources to assist with the
search and recovery. Former President Biden's White House physician not
(16:36):
cooperating with Congress, and one in three teenagers are now
pre diabetic. Oh and if you're just waking up, we
can't have your morning show without your voice.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
Let's start with Big John. So here's the scuttle butt.
Speaker 7 (16:51):
In New York, they pay eight times the amount of
money you raise during your candidacy. Curtis is not going
to give the money back. But the rumor rays that
Cuomo may give the money back and drop out. When
Curtis kicks in his money, he may make some noise.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Well, he'd have.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
A lot of noise to make if you gave him
all of Cuomo's votes, which you're expecting all of a
Democrat governor's support to go to a Republican radio personality.
Even then you would still be just a point ahead
(17:32):
of Zorn Mandani. But yeah, I think it's gonna take
a little bit more than noise. Keith, I believe Kfyi
and Phoenix.
Speaker 11 (17:40):
Yeah, I'm going to correct your guess on one point.
I think what ruined California was Ronald Reagan because he
declared that amnesty in the nineteen eighties. That's actually what
flipped California and made it a one party system. That's
why we have a blue California today. Before that, it
was reliably Republican.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
Love my Phoenix listeners. People forget this.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
There was a reason why we ended up with a
Reagan Bush ticket because at the convention it was a
dead heat and what was holding Ronald Reagan back was
his positions on amnesty. And then how ironic is it
that HW Bush's son w Bush, who also was a
(18:24):
little weak on the border for conservatives perspective, would later
be president as well.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
Kato next, I think on.
Speaker 5 (18:31):
The Epstein files, Trump has become a mastermind of the media.
He knows if he pushes away, looks incompetent and can't
get it done, his administration will be exposed by those
who just can't stand him. They'll leak, they'll dig, and
they'll expose the truth, do the dirty work for him,
and he never gets Dan's dirty. What do you think
(18:53):
of that?
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Ummm, I don't think the glass is half fall or
I'm not joking.
Speaker 12 (19:04):
I don't think we should be taking the advice from
a group of people who can't define what a woman is.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
That was just complete fa.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Always revealing, often entertaining. Welcome to the sounds of the day. Well,
these were the sounds of yesterday, everybody.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
Telling us Joe's just fine.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Now, remember, probably the most scandalous news of the week
is the memo leak from Vice President Kamala Harris telling
everybody the f and democracy's at stake, get in line
and support the president. Which she did was take out
all the candidates who would have challenged him in the primary,
and she convinced them all to get behind the president
(19:50):
in the great lie and then conveniently from the inside
John Podesta. By the way, Kamala Harris was the Clinton
apparatus candidate. She was the first out in the primary,
the biggest failure, and they planned one sneaking into the
White House with Joe Biden in the shadow campaign and
then giving it to her. They eventually waited four years
(20:11):
and gave it to her with all of his primary
electoral votes. What a scam that was. But she did
manage to get everybody in line, and so the sounds
of yesterday were.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Joe Biden's not old, Joe Biden's not cut. He's the
sharpest guy we know.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
I've taken three significant intense neurological exams, or.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
In each case is recently shud.
Speaker 13 (20:44):
Yes, I don't think that there is a huge cover
up underweight here, and I frankly don't think that matters.
Speaker 4 (20:52):
He is sharp, intensely probing and detail oriented and focused.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
He is the sharpest as ever.
Speaker 13 (20:59):
There is nothing to these challenges, these suggestions that somehow
he's not sharp and he's not capable.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Joe Biden has a vision. This is a very sharp president.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
The president is absolutely sharp to fit on top of
his game.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
He seems sharp to me.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
We all get a little older, that's what happens, but
you also gain that insight.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
And he's ten years older than he was ten years ago.
Speaker 8 (21:20):
Yes, the problem the president is extremely effective.
Speaker 13 (21:25):
This is a man who is sharp, who is on
top of his game, who knows what's.
Speaker 14 (21:28):
Going on, and he's really good at being president in
the United States.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
The president is all the way there.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
And the answer is unequivocally, yes, he is sharp.
Speaker 15 (21:36):
He probes if he brings the wisdom, the knowledge, the judgment.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
President is more than up to the stop. There's not
a problem.
Speaker 7 (21:44):
I'm not lying.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
If there ever is a problem, Yeah, do you think
that you could go tell the American public? Of course
if necessary, but there's no need for that.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
I mean, it's literally the entire cabinet, the vice president,
the eventual vice presidential came edit it, the media, everybody
lying to you, and the leaked memo shows you exactly
who told them to lie. Now, if you talk to
the president's physician in a deposition under oath in a
(22:19):
House hearing, and you asked the very simple question, were
you ever told to lie about the president's condition?
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Here is the answer, doctor O'Connor. Were you ever told
to lie about the President's health on the advisy Council?
Speaker 4 (22:33):
I must be expected the decline to answer based upon
physician based privilege and in reliance some I right under
the fifth Man of the Constitution.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
I am not a lawyer. I must follow my lawyer's
advice in this matter.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
I like when the chairman of the hearing left the
hearing room and walked slowly up to the press this
clip from BBS, and when asked a very simple question,
what the hell just happened?
Speaker 3 (23:05):
I could tell you exactly what happened. Doctor o'coter pleaded
the Fifth Amendment.
Speaker 8 (23:13):
And I'm gonna read the first two questions that were asked,
Were you ever told to lie.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
About the president's health. He pleaded the Fifth Amendment. He
would not answer that question.
Speaker 6 (23:28):
The second question, did you ever believe President Biden was
unfit to execute his duties?
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Again?
Speaker 8 (23:36):
President Biden's White House position pleaded the Fifth Amendment.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
You you could easily make the case this is the
greatest scandal in American political history. First of all, a
shadow campaign to steal the election, then the hiding of
(24:01):
a cognitively impaired president for four years, and then the
ignoring of the voters and waiting conveniently until enough electoral
votes had been accumulated to have a debate prior to
the convention to then expose his cognitive impairment for the
purposes of removing him and just handing it all to
Kamala Harris. And they thought they were going to hand
(24:22):
the country to her as well. But make no mistake
about it, the biggest scandal is a fake four year
presidency and the still unanswered, more compelling question who really
was running this country? And perhaps in that fifth Amendment
the non answer is your greatest answer from his doctor.
(24:50):
But where do we go from here? Let's hope this
doesn't take the trail of Epstein JFK MLK and RFK.
Probably the most unanswered question of the year is what
the heck happened? I mean, you had Elon Musk make
that terrible investment in X in order to keep the
(25:10):
shadow campaign from happening again. They controlled narratives through the media,
and then they silenced opposition views by controlling technocracy and
social media. Elon Musk busted that game up by buying X.
Then that so historically unique coalition Telsey gabberd RFK Junior,
(25:32):
both Democrat primary candidates, now in a coalition with Donald
Trump along with Elon Musk. He would later bring Google
with him, and Amazon with him and all the technocrats,
and then Elon Musk presiding over Doge to reveal overspending
misspending abuse and then it just all blows up. The
(26:01):
hush hush of a fight with descent, then the formal
goodbye from the Oval Office, then the tirade and tantrum
online from Musk, even bringing up Donald Trump. You're not
gonna learn anything about Epstein because he's all in it.
And then of course the ultimate rebellion, trying to start
(26:22):
a ross pero third party, which would not ever win
and at its very best would just hurt everybody that
is doing exactly, maybe not the exact way, but exactly
what Elon Musk wants to do and put back in
(26:44):
power the very people who created the corruption he revealed.
I mean, what the hell happened? How do we go
from him and his kid playing in the Oval office,
jumping up and down, doing more, from arc signs speaking
in cabinet meetings to this, Well, that's a very good question,
(27:07):
and the right person to ask would be Trump's chief
of staff, Susie Wilds, daughter of Pat Summerle, And so
she was asked, the heck happened with these two?
Speaker 15 (27:21):
Elon had so much to offer us. He knew things
we didn't know. He knew people and technologies that we
didn't know. It was a it was a great thing
when it was a great thing, and I had a
very I think of a very troublesome ending.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Why do you think that happened? I don't know.
Speaker 15 (27:42):
I don't understand it. I don't know. I know that
what has been said doesn't ring accurate to me, but
I don't know. I enjoyed working with Elon. I think
he's a fascinating person and sees the world differently, and
I think that's probably what the president saw too, just
(28:03):
a little bit different than the average Joe, but it
certainly came to not a good ending.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Well, there's an understatement.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
We talked about the president having a cabinet meeting, and
the way the president has cabinet meeting, it's very transparent,
the preces is invited in, everything is filmed, So we
knew there were gonna be a lot of Epstein questions
and other questions.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Here's another one from Peter.
Speaker 14 (28:27):
Doucy, James Comy, and John Brennan now under criminal investigation
related to the Trump Rush of probe. Do you want
to see these two guys behind bars?
Speaker 8 (28:37):
Well, I know nothing about it other than what I
read today, but I will tell you I think they're
very dishonest people. I think they're crooked as hell, and
maybe they have to pay a price for that. I
believe they are truly bad people and dishonest people. So
whatever happens happens.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Donald Trump with not very good work. We started the
show today in the Platinum or if you want to
go back and listen to the podcast, looking at in
our polls of plenty, the view of the Big Beautiful
Bill and how it basically is just a view of
the matrix. Nobody's read these thousand pages. You have the
(29:19):
far left anti narrative, you have the rights, big, beautiful narrative,
and that's all you're getting a reflection of where do
we stand with everything that's happening with securing the border
and deporting dangerous people, because it really is forming the territory,
(29:40):
the turf where a potential civil war could be fought
between the government over half the country and inner cities
and defiance to Harry and we go and see nn.
I mean, they can get enough rhetoric out there to
get peopleeople to ambush ice agents, which are really shots
(30:04):
being fired in the civil war. But as for the
American people, it's really a defining issue, and they've made
up their mind all.
Speaker 16 (30:14):
Immigrants who are here illegally fifty five percent of the
New York Times Marquette sixty four percent, CBS News fifty
per ABC News with a slightly different question fifty six percent.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
So what you're.
Speaker 16 (30:24):
Seeing essentially here is very clear indication that a majority
of Americans, in fact, when they're asked this one question,
which I believe gets that the underlying feelings do in
fact want to port all immigrants who are here illegally.
There's no arguing with these different numbers because they're all
essentially the same across four different posters.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Now, we always said that the very first round, I
mean rounding up dangerous human traffickers, drug traffickers, gangs, violent members, rapists, murderers.
You're looking at seventy to eighty percent support, round them
up and ship them out. And I don't think America
(31:04):
cares if they go to Alligator alcatraz or, if you
reopen the real alcatraz Or, do it in a foreign country.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
I said.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
The trickier thing is going to be what about for
all who have entered illegally? And you're looking at fifty
five to sixty four percent support for that. They'll fight
over the big beautiful bill. There's no fighting over the big,
beautiful secured border. America's made its mind up that much
(31:34):
is a Trump victory.
Speaker 13 (31:38):
People who majored in online activism with a minor and
puberty box little bit.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Any of you in the media clearly missed the.
Speaker 5 (31:48):
Art of the deal.
Speaker 7 (31:49):
It's going to work out, man.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
That's your Sounds of the Day.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
It's your Morning Show with Michael del Journo.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Royo and Nieler national correspondence here talk about tips in
a second, but Rory any significant updates on the search
and recovery efforts.
Speaker 12 (32:04):
No, not, in particular from the overnight hours. Obviously they're
still trying to, you know, find as many bodies as
they can. But somewhere found ten fifteen thirty miles from
where they were swept into the that Guadalupe River. So
it's a challenge.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
I said this when you know, I buy too many cars.
Speaker 3 (32:26):
And I go out to restaurants too much.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
The rise in prices of an average meal cost at
a restaurant and the price of vehicles has been just
astonishing in the last decade, unrecognizable. And I always said,
you know, they're just going to keep raising the price
of these meals, and don't forget the tips go up
with it, because it becomes twenty percent of the cost.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
You know, should we be adjusting a tip?
Speaker 1 (32:50):
Now add the big beautiful bill and now they're not
going to be getting taxed on their tips?
Speaker 3 (32:55):
Should we? And do Americans plan to adjust their gratuity levels?
Would you?
Speaker 5 (33:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 12 (33:01):
This was an interesting question that was posed by the
food critic at the Washington Post, laying out the case
just as you did, saying, well, look, if they get
to take home more of their money at the end
of the day, maybe we need to change the baseline.
Speaker 5 (33:13):
Right.
Speaker 12 (33:13):
We always assumed fifteen percent was rock bottom right for
a tip, but maybe rock bottom should be ten percent
now if they get to keep more of the tip
that it's based on. Judging by the feedback, it looks
like Americans won't be changing their habits at all. But
I will say they all almost almost every comment said
that we're all being asked for tips way too often
(33:35):
in situations where wait, why are we paying a tip
for I'm here at the counter, I'm doing the order,
and you're still asking for a tip.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
I think there's gonna be some adjustments. I think the
reality may differ from those answers. Roy O'Neil greg reporting,
as always.
