Trump focused on Ukraine, Gaza and DC, left focused on gerrymandering. Plus, understanding redistricting before gerrymandering.

Two three, starting your morning off right, A new way

Speaker 1 (00:35):
Yeah, just like that, the weekend is over. Trust you

Three two one does everything but give you the Jeffrey point,
and then you have thirty seconds to make your comment,
ask your question, take your place at this morning is implied.
(01:18):
It's implied. Is an implied point.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
It's it implied.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
The Trump administration will begin sending the FBI on night
patrols in Washington, d C. The Trump administration is talking
with Israeli Prime Minister bb net Yahoo about his plans
and his takeover of the Gaza, and they're considering inviting
Vladimir Zelinski to the talks in Alaska on Friday with Putin, who,
by the way, addressed his people in Ukraine saying he
(01:43):
will not let Russia to see the United States got
some nasty weather. Midwest Central planes dealing with severe weather
this weekend. At least one person was dead, and weapons
scared up the most money at the box office this weekend.
That some of the top stories we're going to be following. Now,
let's cut to the chase. What is really today about? Well,
the president is laser focused and it's not on jerrymandering.
(02:08):
By the way, one of the hottest stories this weekend
on social media was They're daring to redecorate the inside
of cracker barrels. They're changing changing the clutter on the walls.
I may actually play you a little piece of I
don't know why, you know, certain things aggravate certain people.
(02:31):
I hate corporate speak.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
How dare you?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
I don't know what class at universities are teaching it.
I don't know where it comes from. But why do
you hear the marketing director of Cracker Barrel explaining how
they're freshening the cracker barrels and it's all filled with
corporate speak, which at my last company, Oh my gosh,
(02:55):
that's all you got, this corporate speak. I mean feature that.
But beyond that, you know, the President is laser focused
on peace in Ukraine. He's laser focused on amosless Gaza
in the future and getting the remaining hostages out, and
then safety and beautification in DC. On that note, ten
(03:17):
am Eastern ninth Central this morning, the President will hold
a news conference on his vision for our nation's capital
and it's shortcomings and what needs to be fixed and
how he plans to fix it. So you got a
busy Trump peace in Ukraine, hamosless Gaza, safety and beautification
in DC. Outside of that, I think there's no question
(03:42):
if you tortured yourself. And watch the talking head shows
this weekend. It was jerrymandering versus jerrymandering.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Red's uncomfortable with that.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
He says, well, really, what it is is jerrymandering versus
the truth. Americans don't understand jerry mandering. They don't understand redistricting,
and so the American people by and large, because of
that ignorance, are very susceptible to narrative on both sides.
(04:16):
The reality is Democrats often when in power. I'll never
forget when Barack Obama won. No matter what I say
about her, some are going to perceive I'm just being negative.
But I remember Marsha Blackburn walking into the Oval office
thinking they were going to have all kinds of you know,
(04:36):
great interaction and you know things, the common ground that
we can do together, and Obama basically looked at him
and said, elections have consequences, get out.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
That was it.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
And then she was so all feelings for all hurt,
this is outrageous, you know, Well, no, they do. And
Democrats when they're in power take advantage of it. Republicans
when they're in power, don't. I have no use for
either party, frankly as a two party system.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
But that's just a truth.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
You won't find too many experts go on radio or
television and try to tell you, oh, yeah, when the
Republicans get power, that's that's why they're reacting to Donald
Trump like a tyrant. That's why they want him dead.
That's why they wanted him politically dead. There was a
meme over the weekend. I didn't create it. I just
(05:41):
passed it along. I don't think I've ever had a
meme get that much response. So it's Barack Obama and
Donald Trump a cartoon facing each other. Trump's got his
arm on Obama's shoulder, and it says Obama saying, I
weaponized the IRS, the CIA, the FBI, the DOJ and ISIS.
(06:09):
And Donald Trump puts his handa's arm and responds, I
weaponize the American people. Now that seems like such a
partisan we used to say in high school, shuey leed,
you know, kind of a wow. It's true, Isn't that
what makes a meme powerful? In the sea of voices,
(06:29):
in the ocean of narratives.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
There are little memes like in the movie Bruce Almighty.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
You later find out that that homeless man is really
Morgan Freeman and God, he's holding up the little signs
of truth. They're there if you see him. And that's
why the Democrats hate Donald Trump so much. At the
end of the day, I would look at you and say,
Donald Trump's just playing the same game.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
They've always played.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
They would tell you he's a tyrant doing something new
and unprecedented. There's nothing new about it. The only thing
that I always add to the table that others forget.
I want you to understand constitutionally why it's important who's
in this country, how they're considered, either just here on
a GPS pen or if they're really citizens, Because if
(07:21):
they're really citizens and where they're at is important so
that they can be represented in a representative constitutional republic.
And as people move and shift, the representation must move
and shift with it. That's the formula. Our founding fathers
envisioned statehood through the Senate, the people's House, through the
(07:45):
House of Representatives, and then the executive branch that you've
turned into. I don't know what god monarchy was supposed
to merely be a head of state and execute The
presidency has become too powerful. The Senate has become a
(08:07):
club of one hundred, and the House has become a
party's house, not a people's house. It's a big deal.
It's a big deal that's been debated now for going
on two weeks, and nobody's getting any closer to really
understanding it.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Now.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
States can do dumb things, and certainly California, New York,
Illinois have done them, and then people can ultimately vote
with their feet, even after you jerry manned and draw
the districts, and you're gonna see it sounds of the day,
even if the press had to hope Pritzk are accountable.
I mean, this guy's telling you that what the Republicans
(08:52):
are trying to do in Texas and Ohio is Donald
Trump doing something that's ever been done before to destroy democracy.
I mean, that's laughable on its face. That's so laughable
that the host of Meet the Press has to look
at Princeturn, go, do you realize your maps considered the
(09:14):
worst example of jerry mandering.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
You get an f and the fat he sits there
with a straight face. They just laugh it off.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
So jerrymandering lingers into another week. Will America really understand
constitutional importance of redistricting anymore in this sea of narrative,
this tug of war of narratives.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Probably not.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Will they ever just come to the obvious conclusion It
always happens, It's been happening. This is not a first,
this isn't a Trump thing. In fact, the masters are
the Democrats, who always seize power for control. They just
don't like that Donald Trump is playing their game. So
we'll break some of that down for you. The Democrats
(10:05):
do have an m problem. I'm Donnie and the governor
of New York. Is she distancing herself from him again?
I think so? Is an endorsement of him coming? I
don't think so. I like the way she said it.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
We have a lot of differences that simply can't be whitewashed.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Yeah, and maybe he's hit a new low now he's
singling out white neighborhoods to tax. If you found the
NFL this weekend, I suspect what you found is the
Tennessee Titans and the New Orleans Saints are clearly the
(10:45):
two worst teams in the NFL. Hey clearly hopeless for
the New Orleans Saints.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
I would be shocked if they win three games.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
And I can't say much better for the Titans, and
that's in a relatively weak division. But we have all
this course from our your morning show. Remember, preseason is preseason.
You just learned from it. Can your roster straight? But
there is talent and lack of talent out there, and
the Titans and the Saints to me look the most hopeless.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Why are you being so defensive because you used to
work for the Titan network. No, because you were right
last year about him, and I don't want you to know.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Well they stay now they stay. They have made no
progress whatsoever. You got a big, beautiful stadium waiting for
a crummy team to play in.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
I'm stop, please, I just want some hope. I want
some change and some hope. I'll give you some hope.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Did you notice did any Did I wonder if forty
seven noticed who the HBO featured team.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Is in Hard Knocks?
Speaker 1 (11:50):
No, this year we go to camp with the Buffalo Bills,
my pick to win the Super Bowl. Finally, it looked
really good in twenty twenty five, twenty six, Shaud Shadur
looked great well. The whole team looks great. So yeah,
but we'll cover that. Baseball big win for the Cardinals
over the Cubs. Tigers finally got back on their winning ways.
Nobody's hotter than the Brewers. Brew Crewe with a walk
(12:13):
off home run seven six over the Mets last night.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
That's nine straight for the Brewers.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
This is Your Morning Show with Michael del Trono.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Red was giving a hard time for not mentioning Jim
Lovell passing away at the age of ninety seven.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
He was my favorite astronaut.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
I know a lot of people, probably Neil Armstrong a
buzz Aldron is a favorite of a lot of people.
I think buzz Aldron and we will have roy O'Neil
our expert later, but I think he was Gemini and
Apollo only not one of the original Mercury's. I don't
think we have anybody alive that was Mercury. Gemini and
(12:51):
Apollo left and Jim level at the age of ninety
seven from the famed and many people are most proud
of that failed me and returning all three astronauts home alive,
and Jim Lovell was a big part of that. He
passed it ninety seven years so there, I got it in.
If you're just waking up twenty six minutes after the hour,
(13:11):
what kind of happened on a Friday? For a nod
to do it on a Monday, that's kind of my
old school disc jockey trading. You know, she'd want to
be caught, you know, doing like an old story. The
office of Israeli Prime Minister bb Netyah, who says a
call was held with President Trump on Sunday, Mark Mayfield
has details.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
According to the Prime Minister's office, the two discussed Israel's
plan to take over the remaining hamas strong holds some Gaza.
Danielle who also thankd Trump for his support of Israel
since the start of the war. It comes as many
of Israel's allies have been calling for and negotiated seasfire
in Gaza to secure the release of the hostages and
to help resolve the humanitarian crisis in the Palestinian territory.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
I'm Mark Meathhew, Well, I know we're going to get
any justice on what Barack Obama tried to do to
President Trump, but I think I can pretty much figure
out why his official portraits been moved at least the
cartons more.
Speaker 6 (14:04):
That's according to CNN, which obtained a photo of the
Obama portrait now hanging in a corner at the top
of the stairwell of the Grand Staircase. The portraits of
former President George W. Bush and former President George H. W.
Bush have also been moved. CNN also reports sources said
the moves were directed by President Trump. The area where
the portraits are now displayed is heavily restricted to the
(14:27):
First Family, secret Service agents and a limited number of
White House staff. I'm Lisa Carton.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
And depending on things go, maybe a mustache and sunglasses
will be added. Now, listen, we have in our home.
This was the centerpiece of my bedroom growing up. It
was a centerpiece of all my apartments when I was single.
A genuine coon ass, and it is just what you think.
It's a mounted You know you have deer heads. Sure,
(14:54):
this is the butt of a raccoon and it's a
genuine Well obviously Andrew thought it was disgusting. It is
nowhere ever been allowed in our home. So you know
how you have your little toilet room in your bathroom, right,
that's where my coon asses. And I suspect it's only
a matter of time before that's where Barack Obama and
George W. Bush's portrait is. Can you believe this? Oh
(15:20):
Ell dial Up, the dial up internet service, after more
than four decades, is shutting down. One of the staples
of the early Internet era. The service, which connected modems
through phone lines. At one time, boasted millions of customers.
In late twenty fifteen, there were still two million dial
up customers. That's I can't even imagine that it's now
(15:42):
down to thousands, and it's going away, and we'll be
down to zero. They'll disconnect on September thirtieth. Let's do
football of your morning show interest? Why in seventeen ten
over the Falcons Browns one to oh thirty ten over
Carolina Cardinals twenty seventeen by a field goal over the Chiefs.
Titans blown out by Tampa twenty nine, nine to seven.
Even the seven was a trash touchdown rams by ten
(16:03):
of the Cowboys thirty one twenty one bills fell to
the Giants thirty four to twenty five.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
I'm Joe Big in Tampa and my morning show is
your Morning show with Michael bel Jorno.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Hey, it's Michael.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Your morning show can be heard live each weekday morning
on great stations like thirteen sixty The Patriot in San Diego,
News Talk one oh six point three and AM eighteen
eighty WMQ oh Claire, Wisconsin and one oh four nine
The Patriot and Saint Louis, Missouri. Would love to be
a part of your morning routine. But so glad you're
here now enjoyed the podcast A New Day All wait
you Monday, August the eleventh, twenty twenty five on the AARDE,
(16:42):
streaming live on your iHeart app.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
And there is no place I would rather be. I
did not mean to start a distraction. I wanted you
to keep.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Your eye laser focused as the President's laser focused on
peace in Ukraine, a Hamasless Gaza, and safety and beautification
in our nation's capital.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
But already I've thrown the distraction into the wind. Doesn't
that make that way?
Speaker 4 (17:06):
Why?
Speaker 3 (17:06):
No? That simple sound takes me back? Simple?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
First of all, how is it I still have one friend,
Joe Vig, who still is on AOL? I mean, how
many people out there you get an email from somebody
at aol dot com? How are you talking about a throwback?
So they're going to lose their email too, Not just
the skimmer of the dial up modem. Right, they'll they'll
(17:31):
be just an instant. But I can't imagine anybody. But
if you go back to the very beginning, my first
experience ever with the Internet, I walked into the FM
Country station's program director's office, which is right next to mine,
and we were talking and he had a computer that
he did the music scheduling on, and he was behind
(17:52):
his desk. And while we're talking and I go, what
is this? And he goes, well, that's the Internet, honest
to goodness. I mean, there was a day somebody had
to be the first, right, the Internet?
Speaker 3 (18:00):
What's that?
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Well, you just get on it? And I said what
do you do? And he goes, well talk to people?
Well who do you talk to? He goes, I was
talking to somebody in Italy today And I thought, wow,
that's cool. So I hit the button and this starts,
which the movie.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
The movie did.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
A wonderful job portraying, because I remember that that was
a big deal.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
You got mail. I mean, what, somebody's trying to talk
to me. But you would think America Online. What a
great name? Right?
Speaker 1 (18:35):
The first Usually the first is never defeated, and they're
just like irrelevant. The ones that started all that should
have made it and really didn't. I mean, AOL was
before Google, right, yeah, they started it all right, yeah,
I mean that's and they bought Time Warner and you
thought they were going to take over, that they were
going to be the monopoly. That's that's just how you
(18:57):
get on. If you're in America and you want to
be online, you go to AUL. But that sound and
the anticipation of it coming up, and then hearing you
got mail, the notion that anyone was still doing that
every morning on a doing more time just taggravate everybody.
This is a test of America online, Time Warner. But
(19:18):
just hearing that sound, it got all of you guys talking.
I'm assuming that same with the listeners actually would be fun.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Is on the talkback button?
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Is there anybody that was still on is still on AOL?
And anybody that is still connecting through a phone line
which I don't even own anymore?
Speaker 3 (19:36):
Who has phone lines? I got more? I got one
for you. Welcome, you've got mail.
Speaker 7 (19:40):
I love that jo that did it in it was
the government that was using because probably so, but boy,
that's distracted everybody. We have so many sounds of the
day that we could kind of do.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
Two.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
I'm going to kind of do that. I want to
play three. I want to do this jerrem in our
one on one time here, I want to do jerry mandering.
I'm going to be very quick, because I don't want
you to feel like you're in a political science class
by any stretch of the imagination. I cut to the
chase by saying it this. There's a lot of people
that come along and think they are this is me personally.
(20:19):
I have yet to meet a modern day human being
smarter than our founding fathers. I am in such awe
of their brilliance, and when you go back and see
their age, I mean I was a moron at twenty six.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
I was not writing documents like this.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
But the ability to have learned from the past, to
be creating in the moment and foreseeing the future is
the kind of vision of past, present in future that
I see only Almighty God have. And so I think
God was with those men. They were smarter than us,
(21:07):
they were more thoughtful than us, more foreseeing than us.
But I think I think the spirit of God helped
them because of that level of past, present and future vision.
And in that vision, they envisioned a representative republic. In fact,
(21:31):
do you remember when Benjamin Franklin came out of Constitutional
Hall and they were all waiting, Oh my gosh, because
imagine if you were outside those walls.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
We're going to have a country. What's it going to be?
Is it going to be a theocracy? They're going to
be a democracy. Is it's going to be a a monarchy?
Speaker 1 (21:47):
What's it going to be? And the door finally opens.
Here comes Benjamin Franklin the medim sex.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
What do you have for us? A republic? If you
can keep it? Even in its creation, they knew how
hard it would be to keep And I can't even
(22:15):
say this without stuttering. In forty two years of radio,
over thirty six years in talk radio, Dear God, how
close am I to seeing you and dying? I'm back.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
That's really all I've discussed for thirty six years is
that if you can keep it, because they knew, you
give the people this kind of power, and if they
ever want to get lazy and vote themselves freebies, they'll
do it, and you'll be.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
Look at all the threats to the republic if you
can keep it.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Now the way our founding fathers envisioned this was Okay, well,
we're the United States of America, so we got to
protect the states. We need a limited federal government to
do the things only the federal government can do, representing
all the states and all the peoples. I'll never forget
(23:14):
I was interviewing, in of all people, with Mike Pence.
He was I think he was still just the mayor
of Indianapolis. I don't even think he was the governor
of Indiana yet, really, And he had one of the
greatest lines.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
He said, Oh, Michael, you know I have a simple
view of this. I say, really, what's that?
Speaker 1 (23:29):
If it's in the phone book, the government shouldn't be
doing it. I thought, what a great definition. Right, Like, now,
that doesn't make sense. Why is the state of Tennessee
operating golf courses? Now I play on them and I
love them, and they're affordable, But why are they in
the golf course business? They're in the Yellow Pages. So
it's a great thing, all right. So that's why every
(23:50):
state has two senators. Every state is equal in the
United States, no matter where it is, or no matter
how many people live there. But the People's House, the
other chamber the House of Representatives is not equal. That
goes based on population, and someone's going to count that
population census, and that determines how many members of Congress
(24:16):
in the House of Representatives they have, because that's where
the populace statehood through the Senate. Not that it is
that anymore. The Senate has become a club of one
hundred that thinks they're really running the country. What they're
really doing is lining their pockets and staying till the totec.
They don't even leave and go spend it. They're so
(24:37):
drunk on power they can't let go of it. Well,
for some of them, it's the only thing that makes
them attractive. So the Senate no longer even comes from
the states. Used to be, they'd be appointed by the
state legislature and their main focus was to guard and
protect statehood and states' rights.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
That hardly ever comes up the people's House.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Well, that's just We're going to talk with Chris Walker
and I suspect more with David Sanati on this later
in the week. But when did politicians, and in particular
members of Congress cease being representatives who either served their
state or their people in their district or the nation's
(25:24):
good as a whole and become a divisive partisan only
shirts and skins player and then devolve even worse into
self serving, self enriching lifelong self servants. And what caused it?
(25:44):
Was it the advent of television? Was it the advent
of cable television? And twenty four hour news was at
the final straw social media the personalization and obsession with
political fighting that made them celebrities and superstars and individuals.
Because somewhere along the line we went from servant political
(26:17):
representation to partisanship versus d's to what we have now,
which is absolute governmental dysfunction. And you better identify a
that that's where we are, b how we got there,
so see we can get the heck out of here. Otherwise,
(26:38):
to Benjamin Franklin's quote, it's a republic if you can
keep it now.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
So that's redistricting.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
So you take a census and you find out what
the people are, so the people's house can be represented
and represent the populace and where they live. Now, jerry
mandering is the abuse of that. That's when you just
start drawing lines, not because of movement of bodies or
populous but to draw them in an ellen. They've got
some crazy lines, some that stretch over three hours in
(27:04):
a specific arc, just to make sure a D always wins.
That's jerry mandering, and that's what they're accusing of Texas
trying to do, which leads to this moment.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
So here's Governor JB.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
Pritzker with Kristen Welker on NBC's Meet the Press, and
she has a little reminder for him.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
Listen, it's cheating. Donald Trump is a cheater.
Speaker 8 (27:30):
He cheats on his wives, he cheats at golf, and
now he's trying to cheat the American people out of
their votes.
Speaker 9 (27:36):
Well, look, sticking on your state's map, every major group
that grades the fairness of congressional maps gives your state
an f. Common Cause and nonpartisan government watchdog even says
your map, and I'm going to quote represents a nearly
perfect model for everything that can go wrong with redissecting.
And I guess the question is you talk about preserving democracy,
(27:57):
how do you preserve democracy if you're using the same
tactics that you've criticized Texas Republicans for.
Speaker 8 (28:05):
But as I say, what they're talking about is a distraction.
The reality is that the violation of people's voting rights
is in Texas.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Normally I say bigger than a giraffe, bigger than his chin.
I ended Friday's show with Goose, Meet Gander, Gander, say
hello to Goose. Christian Welker found a obviously more impactful
way of doing it. For the left to play this
(28:38):
as Trump being a tyrant, Trump disassembling democracy that we're
not even or to just simply portray this as something
new is despicable. To be caught in complete hypocrisy. I mean,
(29:00):
Welker's next question should be, well, now that we've established
that you're a cheatd do you cheat on your.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Wife as well? It's file done, Goodbye.

It's your Morning Show with Michael Delchno.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
The federal government plans to start selling its ownership in
Fannie may and Freddie Mack, the two government created mortgage
guaranteers that work to keep the market stable.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
Mark Mayfield fills us in.
Speaker 5 (29:27):
The organizations have been under conservatorship since the two thousand
and eight financial crisis, and now the government plans to
start selling shares to the public later this year. While
Fanny and Freddie were once publicly traded, it's unclear what
the new process or structure would be I'm Mark Neefield.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Fanny Bittender with my muggage.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
I just had to break out into that.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Meanwhile, the official portrait of former President Barack Obama not
quite in the bathroom, but nowhere where the public can
see it. Lisa Cardon reports.
Speaker 6 (29:57):
That's according to CNN, which obtained of photo of the
Obama portrait now hanging in a corner at the top
of the stairwell of the Grand Staircase. The portraits of
former President George W. Bush and former President George H. W.
Bush have also been moved. CNN also reports sources said
the moves were directed by President Trump. The area where
the portraits are now displayed is heavily restricted to the
(30:20):
First family, secret Service agents, and a limited number of
White House staff. I'm Lisa Carton.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
Fannyb Tender, by the way, my favorite PG song. Oh
that's yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
The FDA has approved a new device for rheumatoid arthritis.
Rob Martier reports the device is a neck implant called
the set Point System, which gives a small zapp of
electricity to the vagus nerve once a day to lessen inflammation.
The company behind the set Point System says the device
will be available in some US cities later this year
and nationally in early twenty twenty six. The company set
(30:53):
a late stage clinical trial of the set Point system
found that after a year with the implant, seventy five
percent patients no longer needed medication for rheumatoid arthritis.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
I'm Rob Bart here. Although when you rise in the
Man and So is a very close second.
Speaker 8 (31:09):
Yet you can't go wrong with the Begees.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
We'll let Bobby do this singing.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Bobby Whitlock, co founder of the seventies blues rock band
Derek and the Dominoes, passed away. His family anounced he
died Sunday at his home in Texas at the age
of seventy seven after a brief illness. Whitlock formed Derek
and the Dominoes with Eric Clapton in nineteen seventy released
the album Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs. He died
at the age of seventy seven. A California puppy has
(31:38):
been named the World's Ugliest dog.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
Mark Mayfield's back with that Ugly Story.
Speaker 5 (31:48):
The hairless English French bulldog mix named Petunia took the
title in the World's Ugliest Dog Contest at the Sonoma
County Fair this past Friday. Order Shannon Nyman won five
thousand dollars from the contest, which has been running for
nearly fifty years.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
I'm Mark Neefield.
Speaker 1 (32:03):
Jen Ball is now the first woman umpire in Major
League Baseball history.
Speaker 6 (32:08):
She took the field during Saturday's doubleheader between the Miami
Marlins and Braves in Atlanta. Paywall then made even more
history by calling Sunday series finale behind home plate. The
game's first pitch was called a strike by Paywall. Braves
pitcher Joey Wentz tossed the historic baseball to the dugout
for it to be authenticated by Major League Baseball, a
(32:29):
major milestone. I'm Lisa Carton.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
Pardon me, miss, but you needed glasses. That was clearly.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
In sports of your morning show interest. Let's start in
the National Football League preseason action.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
The Detroit Lions seventeen ten.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
Over the Atlanta Falcons, Browns want to oh thirty ten
over the Carolina Panthers. The Godness twenty seventeen by a
field goal over.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
The Chiefs Titans. Garbage. Simply, it's only preseason gobbage. But
you're not even seeing all this stuff.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
The Gobbage help me twenty nine seven losers to Tampa
Rams by ten over the Cowboys thirty one twenty one.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
Are we gonna have another bad Cowboys season?
Speaker 1 (33:08):
The Bills, who I predict will win the Super Bowl
for the first time ever, fell to the Giants thirty
four to twenty five. And it was long after our
starters were out and many starters who didn't even play
in baseball. Tigers nine to five over the Angels. Cardinals
beat the Cubs. That's a big win. Three two. Guardians
lost to the White Sox six to two. That's not
easy to do. The brew Crew, there's nobody hotter. I
(33:30):
thought they're finally going to lose last night, no walk
off home or they beat the Mets seven to six.
That's nine straight for the Brewers. Rays lost six to
three to the Mariners. A's three to two over the
O's Podres six to two over the White Sox, d
Backs easy over the Rockies thirteen to six, and the
Dodgers lost five four to the Blue Jays. Birthdays today.

(01:18):
It's implied. Is an implied point.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
It's it implied.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
The Trump administration will begin sending the FBI on night
patrols in Washington, d C. The Trump administration is talking
with Israeli Prime Minister bb net Yahoo about his plans
and his takeover of the Gaza, and they're considering inviting
Vladimir Zelinski to the talks in Alaska on Friday with Putin, who,
by the way, addressed his people in Ukraine saying he
(01:43):
will not let Russia to see the United States got
some nasty weather. Midwest Central planes dealing with severe weather
this weekend. At least one person was dead, and weapons
scared up the most money at the box office this weekend.
That some of the top stories we're going to be following. Now,
let's cut to the chase. What is really today about? Well,
the president is laser focused and it's not on jerrymandering.
(02:08):
By the way, one of the hottest stories this weekend
on social media was They're daring to redecorate the inside
of cracker barrels. They're changing changing the clutter on the walls.
I may actually play you a little piece of I
don't know why, you know, certain things aggravate certain people.
(02:31):
I hate corporate speak.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
How dare you?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
I don't know what class at universities are teaching it.
I don't know where it comes from. But why do
you hear the marketing director of Cracker Barrel explaining how
they're freshening the cracker barrels and it's all filled with
corporate speak, which at my last company, Oh my gosh,
(02:55):
that's all you got, this corporate speak. I mean feature that.
But beyond that, you know, the President is laser focused
on peace in Ukraine. He's laser focused on amosless Gaza
in the future and getting the remaining hostages out, and
then safety and beautification in DC. On that note, ten
(03:17):
am Eastern ninth Central this morning, the President will hold
a news conference on his vision for our nation's capital
and it's shortcomings and what needs to be fixed and
how he plans to fix it. So you got a
busy Trump peace in Ukraine, hamosless Gaza, safety and beautification
in DC. Outside of that, I think there's no question
(03:42):
if you tortured yourself. And watch the talking head shows
this weekend. It was jerrymandering versus jerrymandering.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Red's uncomfortable with that.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
He says, well, really, what it is is jerrymandering versus
the truth. Americans don't understand jerry mandering. They don't understand redistricting,
and so the American people by and large, because of
that ignorance, are very susceptible to narrative on both sides.
(04:16):
The reality is Democrats often when in power. I'll never
forget when Barack Obama won. No matter what I say
about her, some are going to perceive I'm just being negative.
But I remember Marsha Blackburn walking into the Oval office
thinking they were going to have all kinds of you know,
(04:36):
great interaction and you know things, the common ground that
we can do together, and Obama basically looked at him
and said, elections have consequences, get out.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
That was it.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
And then she was so all feelings for all hurt,
this is outrageous, you know, Well, no, they do. And
Democrats when they're in power take advantage of it. Republicans
when they're in power, don't. I have no use for
either party, frankly as a two party system.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
But that's just a truth.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
You won't find too many experts go on radio or
television and try to tell you, oh, yeah, when the
Republicans get power, that's that's why they're reacting to Donald
Trump like a tyrant. That's why they want him dead.
That's why they wanted him politically dead. There was a
meme over the weekend. I didn't create it. I just
(05:41):
passed it along. I don't think I've ever had a
meme get that much response. So it's Barack Obama and
Donald Trump a cartoon facing each other. Trump's got his
arm on Obama's shoulder, and it says Obama saying, I
weaponized the IRS, the CIA, the FBI, the DOJ and ISIS.
(06:09):
And Donald Trump puts his handa's arm and responds, I
weaponize the American people. Now that seems like such a
partisan we used to say in high school, shuey leed,
you know, kind of a wow. It's true, Isn't that
what makes a meme powerful? In the sea of voices,
(06:29):
in the ocean of narratives.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
There are little memes like in the movie Bruce Almighty.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
You later find out that that homeless man is really
Morgan Freeman and God, he's holding up the little signs
of truth. They're there if you see him. And that's
why the Democrats hate Donald Trump so much. At the
end of the day, I would look at you and say,
Donald Trump's just playing the same game.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
They've always played.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
They would tell you he's a tyrant doing something new
and unprecedented. There's nothing new about it. The only thing
that I always add to the table that others forget.
I want you to understand constitutionally why it's important who's
in this country, how they're considered, either just here on
a GPS pen or if they're really citizens, Because if
(07:21):
they're really citizens and where they're at is important so
that they can be represented in a representative constitutional republic.
And as people move and shift, the representation must move
and shift with it. That's the formula. Our founding fathers
envisioned statehood through the Senate, the people's House, through the
(07:45):
House of Representatives, and then the executive branch that you've
turned into. I don't know what god monarchy was supposed
to merely be a head of state and execute The
presidency has become too powerful. The Senate has become a
(08:07):
club of one hundred, and the House has become a
party's house, not a people's house. It's a big deal.
It's a big deal that's been debated now for going
on two weeks, and nobody's getting any closer to really
understanding it.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Now.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
States can do dumb things, and certainly California, New York,
Illinois have done them, and then people can ultimately vote
with their feet, even after you jerry manned and draw
the districts, and you're gonna see it sounds of the day,
even if the press had to hope Pritzk are accountable.
I mean, this guy's telling you that what the Republicans
(08:52):
are trying to do in Texas and Ohio is Donald
Trump doing something that's ever been done before to destroy democracy.
I mean, that's laughable on its face. That's so laughable
that the host of Meet the Press has to look
at Princeturn, go, do you realize your maps considered the
(09:14):
worst example of jerry mandering.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
You get an f and the fat he sits there
with a straight face. They just laugh it off.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
So jerrymandering lingers into another week. Will America really understand
constitutional importance of redistricting anymore in this sea of narrative,
this tug of war of narratives.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Probably not.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Will they ever just come to the obvious conclusion It
always happens, It's been happening. This is not a first,
this isn't a Trump thing. In fact, the masters are
the Democrats, who always seize power for control. They just
don't like that Donald Trump is playing their game. So
we'll break some of that down for you. The Democrats
(10:05):
do have an m problem. I'm Donnie and the governor
of New York. Is she distancing herself from him again?
I think so? Is an endorsement of him coming? I
don't think so. I like the way she said it.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
We have a lot of differences that simply can't be whitewashed.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Yeah, and maybe he's hit a new low now he's
singling out white neighborhoods to tax. If you found the
NFL this weekend, I suspect what you found is the
Tennessee Titans and the New Orleans Saints are clearly the
(10:45):
two worst teams in the NFL. Hey clearly hopeless for
the New Orleans Saints.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
I would be shocked if they win three games.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
And I can't say much better for the Titans, and
that's in a relatively weak division. But we have all
this course from our your morning show. Remember, preseason is preseason.
You just learned from it. Can your roster straight? But
there is talent and lack of talent out there, and
the Titans and the Saints to me look the most hopeless.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Why are you being so defensive because you used to
work for the Titan network. No, because you were right
last year about him, and I don't want you to know.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Well they stay now they stay. They have made no
progress whatsoever. You got a big, beautiful stadium waiting for
a crummy team to play in.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
I'm stop, please, I just want some hope. I want
some change and some hope. I'll give you some hope.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Did you notice did any Did I wonder if forty
seven noticed who the HBO featured team.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Is in Hard Knocks?
Speaker 1 (11:50):
No, this year we go to camp with the Buffalo Bills,
my pick to win the Super Bowl. Finally, it looked
really good in twenty twenty five, twenty six, Shaud Shadur
looked great well. The whole team looks great. So yeah,
but we'll cover that. Baseball big win for the Cardinals
over the Cubs. Tigers finally got back on their winning ways.
Nobody's hotter than the Brewers. Brew Crewe with a walk
(12:13):
off home run seven six over the Mets last night.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
That's nine straight for the Brewers.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
This is Your Morning Show with Michael del Trono.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Red was giving a hard time for not mentioning Jim
Lovell passing away at the age of ninety seven.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
He was my favorite astronaut.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
I know a lot of people, probably Neil Armstrong a
buzz Aldron is a favorite of a lot of people.
I think buzz Aldron and we will have roy O'Neil
our expert later, but I think he was Gemini and
Apollo only not one of the original Mercury's. I don't
think we have anybody alive that was Mercury. Gemini and
(12:51):
Apollo left and Jim level at the age of ninety
seven from the famed and many people are most proud
of that failed me and returning all three astronauts home alive,
and Jim Lovell was a big part of that. He
passed it ninety seven years so there, I got it in.
If you're just waking up twenty six minutes after the hour,
(13:11):
what kind of happened on a Friday? For a nod
to do it on a Monday, that's kind of my
old school disc jockey trading. You know, she'd want to
be caught, you know, doing like an old story. The
office of Israeli Prime Minister bb Netyah, who says a
call was held with President Trump on Sunday, Mark Mayfield
has details.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
According to the Prime Minister's office, the two discussed Israel's
plan to take over the remaining hamas strong holds some Gaza.
Danielle who also thankd Trump for his support of Israel
since the start of the war. It comes as many
of Israel's allies have been calling for and negotiated seasfire
in Gaza to secure the release of the hostages and
to help resolve the humanitarian crisis in the Palestinian territory.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
I'm Mark Meathhew, Well, I know we're going to get
any justice on what Barack Obama tried to do to
President Trump, but I think I can pretty much figure
out why his official portraits been moved at least the
cartons more.
Speaker 6 (14:04):
That's according to CNN, which obtained a photo of the
Obama portrait now hanging in a corner at the top
of the stairwell of the Grand Staircase. The portraits of
former President George W. Bush and former President George H. W.
Bush have also been moved. CNN also reports sources said
the moves were directed by President Trump. The area where
the portraits are now displayed is heavily restricted to the
(14:27):
First Family, secret Service agents and a limited number of
White House staff. I'm Lisa Carton.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
And depending on things go, maybe a mustache and sunglasses
will be added. Now, listen, we have in our home.
This was the centerpiece of my bedroom growing up. It
was a centerpiece of all my apartments when I was single.
A genuine coon ass, and it is just what you think.
It's a mounted You know you have deer heads. Sure,
(14:54):
this is the butt of a raccoon and it's a
genuine Well obviously Andrew thought it was disgusting. It is
nowhere ever been allowed in our home. So you know
how you have your little toilet room in your bathroom, right,
that's where my coon asses. And I suspect it's only
a matter of time before that's where Barack Obama and
George W. Bush's portrait is. Can you believe this? Oh
(15:20):
Ell dial Up, the dial up internet service, after more
than four decades, is shutting down. One of the staples
of the early Internet era. The service, which connected modems
through phone lines. At one time, boasted millions of customers.
In late twenty fifteen, there were still two million dial
up customers. That's I can't even imagine that it's now
(15:42):
down to thousands, and it's going away, and we'll be
down to zero. They'll disconnect on September thirtieth. Let's do
football of your morning show interest? Why in seventeen ten
over the Falcons Browns one to oh thirty ten over
Carolina Cardinals twenty seventeen by a field goal over the Chiefs.
Titans blown out by Tampa twenty nine, nine to seven.
Even the seven was a trash touchdown rams by ten
(16:03):
of the Cowboys thirty one twenty one bills fell to
the Giants thirty four to twenty five.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
I'm Joe Big in Tampa and my morning show is
your Morning show with Michael bel Jorno.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Hey, it's Michael.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Your morning show can be heard live each weekday morning
on great stations like thirteen sixty The Patriot in San Diego,
News Talk one oh six point three and AM eighteen
eighty WMQ oh Claire, Wisconsin and one oh four nine
The Patriot and Saint Louis, Missouri. Would love to be
a part of your morning routine. But so glad you're
here now enjoyed the podcast A New Day All wait
you Monday, August the eleventh, twenty twenty five on the AARDE,
(16:42):
streaming live on your iHeart app.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
And there is no place I would rather be. I
did not mean to start a distraction. I wanted you
to keep.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Your eye laser focused as the President's laser focused on
peace in Ukraine, a Hamasless Gaza, and safety and beautification
in our nation's capital.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
But already I've thrown the distraction into the wind. Doesn't
that make that way?
Speaker 4 (17:06):
Why?
Speaker 3 (17:06):
No? That simple sound takes me back? Simple?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
First of all, how is it I still have one friend,
Joe Vig, who still is on AOL? I mean, how
many people out there you get an email from somebody
at aol dot com? How are you talking about a throwback?
So they're going to lose their email too, Not just
the skimmer of the dial up modem. Right, they'll they'll
(17:31):
be just an instant. But I can't imagine anybody. But
if you go back to the very beginning, my first
experience ever with the Internet, I walked into the FM
Country station's program director's office, which is right next to mine,
and we were talking and he had a computer that
he did the music scheduling on, and he was behind
(17:52):
his desk. And while we're talking and I go, what
is this? And he goes, well, that's the Internet, honest
to goodness. I mean, there was a day somebody had
to be the first, right, the Internet?
Speaker 3 (18:00):
What's that?
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Well, you just get on it? And I said what
do you do? And he goes, well talk to people?
Well who do you talk to? He goes, I was
talking to somebody in Italy today And I thought, wow,
that's cool. So I hit the button and this starts,
which the movie.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
The movie did.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
A wonderful job portraying, because I remember that that was
a big deal.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
You got mail. I mean, what, somebody's trying to talk
to me. But you would think America Online. What a
great name? Right?
Speaker 1 (18:35):
The first Usually the first is never defeated, and they're
just like irrelevant. The ones that started all that should
have made it and really didn't. I mean, AOL was
before Google, right, yeah, they started it all right, yeah,
I mean that's and they bought Time Warner and you
thought they were going to take over, that they were
going to be the monopoly. That's that's just how you
(18:57):
get on. If you're in America and you want to
be online, you go to AUL. But that sound and
the anticipation of it coming up, and then hearing you
got mail, the notion that anyone was still doing that
every morning on a doing more time just taggravate everybody.
This is a test of America online, Time Warner. But
(19:18):
just hearing that sound, it got all of you guys talking.
I'm assuming that same with the listeners actually would be fun.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Is on the talkback button?
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Is there anybody that was still on is still on AOL?
And anybody that is still connecting through a phone line
which I don't even own anymore?
Speaker 3 (19:36):
Who has phone lines? I got more? I got one
for you. Welcome, you've got mail.
Speaker 7 (19:40):
I love that jo that did it in it was
the government that was using because probably so, but boy,
that's distracted everybody. We have so many sounds of the
day that we could kind of do.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
Two.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
I'm going to kind of do that. I want to
play three. I want to do this jerrem in our
one on one time here, I want to do jerry mandering.
I'm going to be very quick, because I don't want
you to feel like you're in a political science class
by any stretch of the imagination. I cut to the
chase by saying it this. There's a lot of people
that come along and think they are this is me personally.
(20:19):
I have yet to meet a modern day human being
smarter than our founding fathers. I am in such awe
of their brilliance, and when you go back and see
their age, I mean I was a moron at twenty six.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
I was not writing documents like this.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
But the ability to have learned from the past, to
be creating in the moment and foreseeing the future is
the kind of vision of past, present in future that
I see only Almighty God have. And so I think
God was with those men. They were smarter than us,
(21:07):
they were more thoughtful than us, more foreseeing than us.
But I think I think the spirit of God helped
them because of that level of past, present and future vision.
And in that vision, they envisioned a representative republic. In fact,
(21:31):
do you remember when Benjamin Franklin came out of Constitutional
Hall and they were all waiting, Oh my gosh, because
imagine if you were outside those walls.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
We're going to have a country. What's it going to be?
Is it going to be a theocracy? They're going to
be a democracy. Is it's going to be a a monarchy?
Speaker 1 (21:47):
What's it going to be? And the door finally opens.
Here comes Benjamin Franklin the medim sex.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
What do you have for us? A republic? If you
can keep it? Even in its creation, they knew how
hard it would be to keep And I can't even
(22:15):
say this without stuttering. In forty two years of radio,
over thirty six years in talk radio, Dear God, how
close am I to seeing you and dying? I'm back.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
That's really all I've discussed for thirty six years is
that if you can keep it, because they knew, you
give the people this kind of power, and if they
ever want to get lazy and vote themselves freebies, they'll
do it, and you'll be.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
Look at all the threats to the republic if you
can keep it.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Now the way our founding fathers envisioned this was Okay, well,
we're the United States of America, so we got to
protect the states. We need a limited federal government to
do the things only the federal government can do, representing
all the states and all the peoples. I'll never forget
(23:14):
I was interviewing, in of all people, with Mike Pence.
He was I think he was still just the mayor
of Indianapolis. I don't even think he was the governor
of Indiana yet, really, And he had one of the
greatest lines.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
He said, Oh, Michael, you know I have a simple
view of this. I say, really, what's that?
Speaker 1 (23:29):
If it's in the phone book, the government shouldn't be
doing it. I thought, what a great definition. Right, Like, now,
that doesn't make sense. Why is the state of Tennessee
operating golf courses? Now I play on them and I
love them, and they're affordable, But why are they in
the golf course business? They're in the Yellow Pages. So
it's a great thing, all right. So that's why every
(23:50):
state has two senators. Every state is equal in the
United States, no matter where it is, or no matter
how many people live there. But the People's House, the
other chamber the House of Representatives is not equal. That
goes based on population, and someone's going to count that
population census, and that determines how many members of Congress
(24:16):
in the House of Representatives they have, because that's where
the populace statehood through the Senate. Not that it is
that anymore. The Senate has become a club of one
hundred that thinks they're really running the country. What they're
really doing is lining their pockets and staying till the totec.
They don't even leave and go spend it. They're so
(24:37):
drunk on power they can't let go of it. Well,
for some of them, it's the only thing that makes
them attractive. So the Senate no longer even comes from
the states. Used to be, they'd be appointed by the
state legislature and their main focus was to guard and
protect statehood and states' rights.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
That hardly ever comes up the people's House.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Well, that's just We're going to talk with Chris Walker
and I suspect more with David Sanati on this later
in the week. But when did politicians, and in particular
members of Congress cease being representatives who either served their
state or their people in their district or the nation's
(25:24):
good as a whole and become a divisive partisan only
shirts and skins player and then devolve even worse into
self serving, self enriching lifelong self servants. And what caused it?
(25:44):
Was it the advent of television? Was it the advent
of cable television? And twenty four hour news was at
the final straw social media the personalization and obsession with
political fighting that made them celebrities and superstars and individuals.
Because somewhere along the line we went from servant political
(26:17):
representation to partisanship versus d's to what we have now,
which is absolute governmental dysfunction. And you better identify a
that that's where we are, b how we got there,
so see we can get the heck out of here. Otherwise,
(26:38):
to Benjamin Franklin's quote, it's a republic if you can
keep it now.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
So that's redistricting.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
So you take a census and you find out what
the people are, so the people's house can be represented
and represent the populace and where they live. Now, jerry
mandering is the abuse of that. That's when you just
start drawing lines, not because of movement of bodies or
populous but to draw them in an ellen. They've got
some crazy lines, some that stretch over three hours in
(27:04):
a specific arc, just to make sure a D always wins.
That's jerry mandering, and that's what they're accusing of Texas
trying to do, which leads to this moment.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
So here's Governor JB.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
Pritzker with Kristen Welker on NBC's Meet the Press, and
she has a little reminder for him.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
Listen, it's cheating. Donald Trump is a cheater.
Speaker 8 (27:30):
He cheats on his wives, he cheats at golf, and
now he's trying to cheat the American people out of
their votes.
Speaker 9 (27:36):
Well, look, sticking on your state's map, every major group
that grades the fairness of congressional maps gives your state
an f. Common Cause and nonpartisan government watchdog even says
your map, and I'm going to quote represents a nearly
perfect model for everything that can go wrong with redissecting.
And I guess the question is you talk about preserving democracy,
(27:57):
how do you preserve democracy if you're using the same
tactics that you've criticized Texas Republicans for.
Speaker 8 (28:05):
But as I say, what they're talking about is a distraction.
The reality is that the violation of people's voting rights
is in Texas.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Normally I say bigger than a giraffe, bigger than his chin.
I ended Friday's show with Goose, Meet Gander, Gander, say
hello to Goose. Christian Welker found a obviously more impactful
way of doing it. For the left to play this
(28:38):
as Trump being a tyrant, Trump disassembling democracy that we're
not even or to just simply portray this as something
new is despicable. To be caught in complete hypocrisy. I mean,
(29:00):
Welker's next question should be, well, now that we've established
that you're a cheatd do you cheat on your.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Wife as well? It's file done, Goodbye.
Speaker 4 (29:11):
It's your Morning Show with Michael Delchno.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
The federal government plans to start selling its ownership in
Fannie may and Freddie Mack, the two government created mortgage
guaranteers that work to keep the market stable.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
Mark Mayfield fills us in.
Speaker 5 (29:27):
The organizations have been under conservatorship since the two thousand
and eight financial crisis, and now the government plans to
start selling shares to the public later this year. While
Fanny and Freddie were once publicly traded, it's unclear what
the new process or structure would be I'm Mark Neefield.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Fanny Bittender with my muggage.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
I just had to break out into that.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Meanwhile, the official portrait of former President Barack Obama not
quite in the bathroom, but nowhere where the public can
see it. Lisa Cardon reports.
Speaker 6 (29:57):
That's according to CNN, which obtained of photo of the
Obama portrait now hanging in a corner at the top
of the stairwell of the Grand Staircase. The portraits of
former President George W. Bush and former President George H. W.
Bush have also been moved. CNN also reports sources said
the moves were directed by President Trump. The area where
the portraits are now displayed is heavily restricted to the
(30:20):
First family, secret Service agents, and a limited number of
White House staff. I'm Lisa Carton.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
Fannyb Tender, by the way, my favorite PG song. Oh
that's yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
The FDA has approved a new device for rheumatoid arthritis.
Rob Martier reports the device is a neck implant called
the set Point System, which gives a small zapp of
electricity to the vagus nerve once a day to lessen inflammation.
The company behind the set Point System says the device
will be available in some US cities later this year
and nationally in early twenty twenty six. The company set
(30:53):
a late stage clinical trial of the set Point system
found that after a year with the implant, seventy five
percent patients no longer needed medication for rheumatoid arthritis.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
I'm Rob Bart here. Although when you rise in the
Man and So is a very close second.
Speaker 8 (31:09):
Yet you can't go wrong with the Begees.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
We'll let Bobby do this singing.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Bobby Whitlock, co founder of the seventies blues rock band
Derek and the Dominoes, passed away. His family anounced he
died Sunday at his home in Texas at the age
of seventy seven after a brief illness. Whitlock formed Derek
and the Dominoes with Eric Clapton in nineteen seventy released
the album Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs. He died
at the age of seventy seven. A California puppy has
(31:38):
been named the World's Ugliest dog.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
Mark Mayfield's back with that Ugly Story.
Speaker 5 (31:48):
The hairless English French bulldog mix named Petunia took the
title in the World's Ugliest Dog Contest at the Sonoma
County Fair this past Friday. Order Shannon Nyman won five
thousand dollars from the contest, which has been running for
nearly fifty years.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
I'm Mark Neefield.
Speaker 1 (32:03):
Jen Ball is now the first woman umpire in Major
League Baseball history.
Speaker 6 (32:08):
She took the field during Saturday's doubleheader between the Miami
Marlins and Braves in Atlanta. Paywall then made even more
history by calling Sunday series finale behind home plate. The
game's first pitch was called a strike by Paywall. Braves
pitcher Joey Wentz tossed the historic baseball to the dugout
for it to be authenticated by Major League Baseball, a
(32:29):
major milestone. I'm Lisa Carton.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
Pardon me, miss, but you needed glasses. That was clearly.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
In sports of your morning show interest. Let's start in
the National Football League preseason action.
Speaker 3 (32:42):

Speaker 1 (32:44):
Over the Atlanta Falcons, Browns want to oh thirty ten
over the Carolina Panthers. The Godness twenty seventeen by a
field goal over.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
The Chiefs Titans. Garbage. Simply, it's only preseason gobbage. But
you're not even seeing all this stuff.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
The Gobbage help me twenty nine seven losers to Tampa
Rams by ten over the Cowboys thirty one twenty one.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
Are we gonna have another bad Cowboys season?
Speaker 1 (33:08):
The Bills, who I predict will win the Super Bowl
for the first time ever, fell to the Giants thirty
four to twenty five. And it was long after our
starters were out and many starters who didn't even play
in baseball. Tigers nine to five over the Angels. Cardinals
beat the Cubs. That's a big win. Three two. Guardians
lost to the White Sox six to two. That's not
easy to do. The brew Crew, there's nobody hotter. I
(33:30):
thought they're finally going to lose last night, no walk
off home or they beat the Mets seven to six.
That's nine straight for the Brewers. Rays lost six to
three to the Mariners. A's three to two over the
O's Podres six to two over the White Sox, d
Backs easy over the Rockies thirteen to six, and the
Dodgers lost five four to the Blue Jays. Birthdays today.
