Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, Time, Time, Luck and loud. The
Michael Arry Show is on the air.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
A new ad from the Trump campaign that's going to drop.
I think it's very effective, but I will leave that
to you to decide, and I will play that for
you in about four or five minutes. We'll take that
to break and you can share with me what you
thought about it. Let me address the subject that some

(00:47):
of you will ask about. I think not as many
as news directors believe, but I will say this because
I have had an ongoing argument with news directors for
almost twenty years about this subject. Today there was a
school shooting in Joy, and the news media across the
board covers school shootings like it is a single most

(01:10):
important thing in the world, and everything else gets dropped.
If there was a school shooting during the Super Bowl,
you'd miss the Super Bowl. I believe this is my opinion,
not theirs, that this encourages more school shootings. Nobody shoots

(01:33):
people in the school without a manifesto and an ideology
or a concept that they want shared with other people.
Killing people at the school is not the actual purpose.
It's very rarely the case, Columbine being one of them.

(01:56):
And the first of the major you know, blockbuster school shootings.
Let's call it what it is. It's a media event.
If you're a media outlet. School shootings are great for ratings,
as are storms. Now. Both of them are terrible for
the people affected, with often lifetime and life ending consequences.

(02:21):
The reason people do it is not to kill those people.
Often they don't know those people. They don't have a
grudge against those people. If I want everybody to read
what I have to say about why I'm mad. In
the case of the Tranifesto in Nashville, which Tennessee Star
are released yesterday, it's a girl who wanted to be
a boy and she's mad at God for not giving

(02:42):
her a wiener. So she goes and kills a bunch
of people. Okay, I guess, I guess that's her, and
then everybody has to read her trnifesto. People commit these
crimes and kill people because by killing, by doing something
that is so hurtful to the rest of us, we

(03:05):
pay attention. The media plays along, and by the way,
we play along too. A lot of you out there,
it's like rubbernecking. I hate when people rubberneck I hate
when they stop in the highway just to see what's
happened over there. But I'll bet you that person does it,
because I never see anybody going on past. They're all

(03:26):
slowed down. But they'll say, oh, that's so horrible, because
if you're sympathizing and empathizing with great compassion and mercy,
then you weren't rubbernecking. You weren't being nosy. That's not
how that works. All that by way of saying, that's
a little heavy handed, high minded, pedestal perching way for me,

(03:50):
admittedly to tell you that I'm not going to talk
about the shooting, and I very rarely do talk about
the shootings. I will talk about the cover ups. I'll
talk about the missed case by the FBI or the
local police or the state police, or the schools or

(04:11):
whoever else. By the way, the Trenifesto girl that wanted
to be a boy that shot up the school in Tennessee,
she had been seeing psychiatrists since she was six years
old over her ideation of being a boy and her
anger about it, and they told no one, Well, I

(04:35):
believe that if we would solve the mystery, deal with
the problem, and stop making it the single most important
thing in the world because everybody craves news of this.
It's become a cultural phenomenon. We all gather around the
TV to see the details, and then they wipe out
all the guests they've had since then we're all going
to talk about this. That's not what I'm talking about.

(04:58):
I'm going to talk about the election, talk about Donald Trump.
We to talk about this new ad. This latest ad
from the Trump Vance campaign says that Joe Biden and
Kamala Harris failed our soldiers, but Donald Trump never will.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
It will go down as one of the most disgraceful
failures in America's history. A chaotic exit from Afghanistan left
America's image tarnished and led to the tragic death of
thirteen American soldiers.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
We are coming on the air because the flag draped.
Remains of the thirteen fallen US service members who were
killed on Thursday in Afghanistan have now arrhyved back in
the United States to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware, and.

Speaker 3 (05:47):
News reports have now confirmed Biden didn't act alone. Kamala
Harris was part of the incompetence and failure that led
to the unnecessary deaths of the year young men and
women tragically.

Speaker 5 (06:02):
Killed Afghanistan Yans.

Speaker 6 (06:05):
Are you the last person in the room, yes, and
you feel comfortable.

Speaker 7 (06:08):
I do.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
But the tragedy for the families of these thirteen fallen
Marines didn't end there. To this day, Biden and Harris
have refused to even say the names of these fallen
soldiers who gave their lives for their country. But they

(06:29):
will never silence these gold Star families.

Speaker 6 (06:34):
Ladies and gentlemen, Please welcome to the stage the gold
Star families.

Speaker 7 (06:45):
In the nearly three years since Hunter's been gone, there
has been silence, silence from that empty space at the
dinner table where Hudder would have joined his brothers and
sister and us for family gatherings. And there has been
a deafening silence from the Biden and Harris administration.

Speaker 8 (07:08):
Despite our pleas for.

Speaker 7 (07:10):
Answers and accountability, they have pushed us away and tried
to silence us.

Speaker 3 (07:19):
As commander in chief, President Trump always had his soldiers
and their families backs and always will.

Speaker 5 (07:29):
I'm Christy Shamblin.

Speaker 9 (07:31):
My daughter in law, Sergeant Nicole Leanne Gee. It's the
United States Marine and she was killed at Abby Gate
in Afghanistan alongside twelve of her brothers and sister in arms.

Speaker 8 (07:58):
Donald Trump spiss six hours in Bedminster with us. He
allowed us to grieve, He allowed us to remember our heroes.
Donald Trump carried the weight for a few hours with me,

(08:28):
and for the first time since Nicole's death, I felt
I wasn't alone in my grief.

Speaker 3 (08:36):
Paris and Biden failed our soldiers and their families.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
President Trump never will.

Speaker 3 (08:48):
We will restore the American Republic.

Speaker 10 (08:53):
Your support, we will make you America powerful again.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
The Trump campaign has been releasing some really good ads,
but this is one of the most powerful ads thus far.
This is gold Star Families of the service members lost
during the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan a montage and it's
just it's really powerful and just raw and authentic, and

(09:24):
it's true. Vice President Harris.

Speaker 10 (09:27):
Vice President Harris, Vice President Harris. My name is Steve McCooey.
I'm the father of Lance Corporal Kareem m nicooey.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
My name is Jim McCollum.

Speaker 11 (09:37):
I am the gold Star father of the United States
Marine Corps Lance Corporate Riley McCollum.

Speaker 12 (09:41):
This is Mark Schmidz, gold Star father of Marie Lance
Corporal Jared Schmidz.

Speaker 13 (09:45):
My name is Darren Hoover, and I'm the gold Star
father of the United States Marine Corps Staff Sergeant Taylor Hoover.

Speaker 8 (09:52):
My daughter in.

Speaker 6 (09:52):
Law, Sergeant Nicole Leanne Ge, was killed in the Afghanistan
exit at Abbey Gate.

Speaker 14 (10:00):
Our kids were murdered because of your administration.

Speaker 10 (10:04):
You were not at Dover for the dignified transfer, and
no time after reached out to me to offer your condolences,
to offer thank you for kareem sacrifice and service.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
You have thirteen families. We've been waiting over three years
to so much as get a phone call, so much
as hear are kids' names, settle oud.

Speaker 11 (10:25):
You failed for three years and eight months to acknowledge
our kids.

Speaker 13 (10:30):
Where were you and Joe Biden on August twenty six,
twenty twenty four, nowhere near Arlington Cemetery. You couldn't be
bothered to be with us or even say our kids' names,
just as you had DoD for the last three years.

Speaker 6 (10:45):
Vice President Harris, I ask you, why won't you return
a call and explain to us how you call my
daughter in law's.

Speaker 2 (10:54):
Death a success.

Speaker 6 (10:56):
President Trump has called President Trumps show up where President
Trump takes the time to hear our loved one stories.

Speaker 2 (11:06):
We invited him to be there. These are the only
memories we get to make with our son.

Speaker 13 (11:12):
And it is you who is playing politics and tried
to detract from our memories and meet that day.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
Resident Trump has been there for us. He's been a
rock for us.

Speaker 11 (11:21):
He showed compassion for us, and he showed he truly
cares for the families that truly do know what the
ultimate sacrifice really is.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
We played the interview between Dana Bash and Tulsey Gabbard,
but I didn't There were other parts of it I
haven't gotten to yet. While towing the party line, Dana
Bash tried very hard to get Tulsey Gabbard to convent
to condemn Donald Trump for the fact that they filmed

(11:54):
his visit to Arlington National Cemetery to honor the thirteen
service members that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. She was
the last one in the room. Remember, she said that
herself that their botched withdrawal caused the death of the
gold Star. Families whose family members were lost were very,

(12:18):
very hurt and angered as to how this came about.
So they recorded themselves telling the story of their sons
and daughters who died in President Trump, who's recently back

(12:39):
to Twitter. Remember they banned him after the last election,
before Elon owned Twitter. Now Twitter's become a free speech zone.
Before it was as bad as Facebook. President Trump used
his massive audience to get the word out of these

(13:01):
families and let them tell their stories. And I think this,
I think this is just extremely powerful. It hurts me,
as a father of two sons to think about the
pain and anguish they are suffering. I think about how

(13:22):
my mother has suffered since my brother died unexpectedly, and
I can't imagine how how these goals star families carry on.
It's hurtful. And the fact that the Democrats would insult them,
it's hurtful.

Speaker 5 (13:40):
Kamala, your statement is nothing more than.

Speaker 14 (13:43):
A political spin to help you look better in your
presidential campaign against Donald Trump.

Speaker 5 (13:51):
You have never walked a single day in our shoes.

Speaker 14 (13:55):
Our kids were murdered because of your administration.

Speaker 15 (14:00):
Vice President Harris. My name is Steph McCooey. I'm the
father of Lance Corporal Kareem M. Nakooey, and your administration
killed my son.

Speaker 16 (14:12):
The message is intended for Vice President of Kamala Harris
a lot of person who usually takes the social media,
but earlier today your post regarding the incident at Arlington
National Cemetery was brought to my attention after reading it.

Speaker 2 (14:26):
Because of reaction with me.

Speaker 16 (14:27):
You indicated in your posts that you support the military
and military families.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
I for one, have not seen that support.

Speaker 16 (14:33):
It's been three years since Mysela is killed in action,
and myself, my family and other ghostar families have not
seen any support from you or your administration.

Speaker 6 (14:43):
Vice President Harris, my name is Christy Shamblin. My daughter
in law, Sergeant Nicole Leanne g was killed in the
Afghanistan exit at Abbey Gate on August twenty sixth, twenty
twenty one. This year, for the third year, your anniversary
of her murder, we welcome President Donald J.

Speaker 5 (15:03):
Trump to Arlington Taliah Reeth.

Speaker 6 (15:06):
On the tomb of the Unknown Soldier with our family
and to visit Nicole graveside. President Trump and his team
were respectful, They listened to our stories and didn't talk
much at all. We welcomed them that day and they
were comfort to our family. Vice President Harris, I ask you,

(15:28):
why won't you return a call and explain to us
how you call my daughter in law's death a success.

Speaker 11 (15:37):
Vice President Harris, my name is Jim McCollum. I am
the gold Star father of the United States Marine Corplance
Corporate Riley McCollum, kild in Afghanistan, August twenty sixth, twenty
twenty one. Your recent remarks related to Trumph's visit to
Arlington or filled with nothing but lies in deceit.

Speaker 12 (15:55):
This is Mark Schmidz, gold Star father of Marieland's Corporal
Jared Schmidtz. Here we are in beautiful holiday weekend day.
I got to stop what I'm doing spending time with
what's left of my family to address a heenus vile

(16:18):
and disgusting post put out by Kamala Harris.

Speaker 17 (16:22):
Tamala, I want you to understand, and I know it
will be difficult for you because you lack empathy and
basic understanding the events that happened on August twenty stage,
twenty twenty four with President Trump at Arlington National Cemetery.
We're sold and in keeping with the reverence and respect

(16:44):
that it's given to all members of our military that
are buried there, we invited President Trump. We are the
ones that ask for the video and the pictures to
be taken at the two of the Unknown Soldier.

Speaker 18 (17:00):
When President Trump one and pay tribute and by his
respect in Arlington's for our kids. It was not just
the ones burying there.

Speaker 5 (17:09):
It was for all of our kids.

Speaker 18 (17:11):
And it was an invitation that the families actually extend
to him. And it's not the first time that he
actually like meet with us and shared time and with
our families.

Speaker 14 (17:25):
And you are partly to blame for that as well.
What happened at Arlington was President Trump was invited by
those families who have their soldiers buried at Arlington.

Speaker 5 (17:42):
They were invited there as a friend.

Speaker 14 (17:45):
As somebody who has taken the time numerous times on
numerous occasions to hear our stories, to speak our kids' names,
and to help us get some accountability from your administration,
because in over three years we have gotten nothing but
more and more lives, just like your statement, more and

(18:09):
more fun lies and cover ups to make you and
your administration look good. But there is one thing that
you said in your statement that was true. No one
should be running for president if they cannot honor military
members their families as well as veterans.

Speaker 5 (18:30):
So I guess that means that you should step down,
and Kamalas.

Speaker 2 (18:33):
And Michael Very should. Some of the most effective campaign
ads are those that feature your opponent's radical positions using
their own words. When somebody wants to bloody that our
own face, just step back and let them. When somebody
wants to tell you who they are, believe them.

Speaker 19 (18:55):
My values not change you spread meat specifically, Yes, Boston
marathon bomber should be able to vote.

Speaker 5 (19:01):
I think we should have that conversation. Abolish ice, yeah,
would you ban offshore drilling?

Speaker 19 (19:05):
Yes, I'm in favor of banning prack.

Speaker 5 (19:06):
I am prepared to pass a green to deal, and
I support a mandatory buyback program.

Speaker 18 (19:11):
We're not going to treat people who are undocumented across
the borders criminally.

Speaker 19 (19:14):
The idea that more police equals more safety.

Speaker 11 (19:17):
That's just strong policing, as we know, goes all the
way back to slave patrols and that idea.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
And you are absolutely right, where do you stand on
defund the police.

Speaker 5 (19:26):
We need to take a look at these budgets.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
Do you ban plastic straws?

Speaker 9 (19:29):
And who's seventy to eighty percent tax rate?

Speaker 5 (19:32):
I think that's fantastic chipping.

Speaker 2 (19:34):
Now to the Minnesota Freedom Fond.

Speaker 5 (19:36):
How dare we speak Merry Christmas?

Speaker 2 (19:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (19:38):
I am radical.

Speaker 15 (19:39):
I do believe that we need to get radical about
what we were doing.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
Well, we had at Joe Biden's siding this weekend. It
wasn't on the beach. No, he was campaigning for Kamala's
ha Kamala Harris. Imagine how it must feel to be
Joe Biden. All you ever wanted was to be President
of the United States. You've thrown everybody under the bus.
You finally make it to the big chair. You had

(20:05):
to steal an election to get there, but you're there
four years later. You're running for a second term and
your party stage is a coup to install your goofy
vice president and running mate into your spot. Then they
make you go out and campaign for her.

Speaker 20 (20:27):
Oh, I don't remember all the talk Biden got elected.

Speaker 2 (20:31):
He's going to do a planned economy.

Speaker 12 (20:32):
We're going to collapse and there's going to be all
us caving in interest rates.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
You're going to go through the ceiling.

Speaker 2 (20:39):
Come on, man, Look, I know that Joe's been a liar,
sin's way back, and I know he has serious cognitive decline.
But I truly believe his puppet masters lie to him
about the state of the Union. I really do. I
think they lie to him about how much he's hated
and how bad things are. I think he thinks he's president.

(21:00):
They let him pretend, probably guess to use the nice
china at the at the in the White House, the
nice plates for works, and they tell him things are
going great and people love him. Don't believe the naysayers
shake off him hate. As Joe Fox Business contributor Mark
Tepper says, the economy grew by three hundred and sixty

(21:25):
billion dollars last quarter. So why is that bad news?
Because it costs nearly a trillion dollars to get there.

Speaker 5 (21:33):
Something's got to get here.

Speaker 4 (21:34):
Mark Tepper, jump in here down de elpshows up.

Speaker 5 (21:36):
Three oh one right now.

Speaker 18 (21:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 21 (21:38):
Look, when we talk about GDP in terms of dollars
instead of percentages, the economy last quarter grew by about
three hundred and sixty billion dollars. It costs US nine
hundred billion dollars in deficit spending to.

Speaker 5 (21:52):
Realize that growth.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
If any business.

Speaker 21 (21:55):
Owner were to borrow nine hundred billion to generate three
hundred and sixty billion, they be out of business. They
would be bankruptcy. Speaking of bankruptcy, you know, to kind
of chime in on a lot of things, Stephanie hit
on when you look at small businesses, those companies employing
forty nine or fewer employees. Business small business bankruptcies were
up sixty percent in the first half year over year,

(22:17):
So things are starting to get tough.

Speaker 2 (22:19):
This next cut is Joe Biden in decline. This is
the Joe Biden they tried to hide from us. This
is the Joe Biden. Kamala Harris told you was the
smartest guy in the room. He's fine. Well, would you
ever tell us if he wasn't, that would never happen.
He's fine. We all saw it with our own two eyes.

(22:41):
They tried to cover it up. They lied. It's what
they do. They lied until Joe Biden was no longer
useful to them. Because the June twenty seventh debate was
where America finally realized, Oh, when he's actually having to
face off against Trump, you realize he's brain dead.

Speaker 12 (23:03):
You're no longer be the manufacturing capital world.

Speaker 2 (23:05):
Where the hell is that written?

Speaker 12 (23:07):
We are the greatest manufacturing city or your county in
the world, Staton the world sitting in the world.

Speaker 2 (23:15):
Going to remain that way. Tim Waltz is a shameless
liar and opposer. I think he lives a lie. I
think everything about him is lie. But his latest lie
takes the case, takes the cake. Sorry, it proves how
evil he really is. He says Donald Trump wants to

(23:40):
bring back Oh yeah, you got to hear this for yourself.
I'm not gonna repeat it. Somebody said, what's next child labor?
Hell yeah, it's in there. That's what they've got in there.

Speaker 22 (23:50):
You see states doing that, putting our children at risk.

Speaker 2 (23:53):
That's what they'll do. There's outright lying, and then there's
lying by omission. We know that Tim Waltz has told
his fair share of lives, but this next cut is
an example of lying by omission, but lying it is.

Speaker 22 (24:11):
When I talked to my constituents in southern Minnesota, and
I don't care if they're Republican, independent, Democratic, doesn't matter
to them when I tell them. When I was in Afghanistan,
you know what our troops were worried about. They were
worried about their family's healthcare, and they were worried about
their pensions.

Speaker 2 (24:28):
I said, do you think.

Speaker 22 (24:29):
That's really what you want them to be worrying about
when their friends and colleagues are being shot on a
daily basis, and yet at the end of the day
they have to worry about that.

Speaker 2 (24:39):
How was Tim Walts lying by omission there? He's spent
years saying things in a way that misleads those listening
to believe that he's served in a combat zone when
he did not. He was never going to be shot.
President Trump has been shot at and hit. Tim Waltz

(24:59):
has never been shot at. He was not in combat.
There were those who were. They risked their lives, many
gave their lives. For him to claim that they were
there with him is a lie and it's very dishonorable.
He was in Afghanistan as a member of Congress, not

(25:22):
as a member of the National Guard. Christy Noan was
on Fox News when she called Tim Waltz a national
security risk because of his ties to China, and I
think she is absolutely right.

Speaker 20 (25:38):
He taught in China from eighty nine to ninety. He
visited the country thirty times. He got married on the
anniversary of the Tenements Square massacre. He honeymooned in China,
and to your point, he promoted Chinese communism as a
teacher to his American students. So I think what this
does governor as affects the question, is Tim Wall's a

(26:00):
national security risk?

Speaker 19 (26:02):
Absolutely, I'm one hundred percent convinced he's a national security risk.
This man wants America to grow up and be more
like China, which is the exact opposite of what our
leaders should be doing. I have spent all of my
time fighting China, and for thirty years I've been working
in policy on protecting our food supply, and we've seen
China not only manipulate our currencies, steal our ip treat

(26:24):
us unfairly in trade agreements.

Speaker 5 (26:26):
They've also spied on us.

Speaker 19 (26:27):
They've come in and now and they're taking and buying
our land. I have banned them purchasing land and doing
state contracts in South Dakota.

Speaker 5 (26:36):
The rest of the.

Speaker 19 (26:36):
Country needs to realize and wake up that we do
not want a leader like Tim Walls and Kamala Harris
in the White House because of how they would undermine
our national security. It's a big concern, and I hope
we start talking about it a little bit more. That
you have to have people in the White House that
truly want to protect us, protect our republic, and fight socialism,
fight Marxism, fight communism. That's not Tim walls On
