Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
So Michael Arry Show is.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
On the air.
Speaker 4 (00:16):
Joe's legacy of accomplishment over the past three and a
half years is unmatched in modern history. In one term,
he has already surpassed the legacy of most presidents who
served two terms in office.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
As you are.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
When it comes to the economy, do you believe Americans
are better off than they were four years ago?
Speaker 4 (00:45):
So I was raised as a middle class kid who.
Speaker 5 (00:50):
Time live to me live the way you see.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
An undocumented immigrant is not a criminal, and we that's
a correct course in this conversation.
Speaker 6 (01:06):
Una personae fish not escreminae.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
I will snatch their catage so that we will take over.
And yes we can do that. Yes, because we can
do that. Yes we can do that. It's it's the
question do you have the will.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
To do it. I have the will to do it.
Speaker 7 (01:38):
We are going to the border. We've been to the border.
So this whole, this whole, this whole thing about the border.
We've been to the border. We've been to the border.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
You haven't been to the border, and.
Speaker 7 (01:49):
I haven't been to Europe.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
And ask there is a balance to be struck between
being top a damp bitch.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Before we get back to the devil in disguise, Let's
get back.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
To the.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
According to Tucker crossing gay guys in disguise, Tim Walls.
Tim Wats is one of the least self aware people
I've ever seen in public life. He was one of
the speakers at a Kamala rally in Detroit. First he
calls Elon Musk, donald Trump's running mate, and then he
(02:55):
calls out Elon Musk for for you know what, No, no, no,
I'm gonna let you hear it for yourself.
Speaker 8 (03:03):
Well, look, I'm not going to waste all the time
I'm in. I'm going to talk about his running mate,
his running mate, Elon Musk.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Seriously, seriously, where is Senator Vance?
Speaker 8 (03:23):
After you got asked the simplest question in the world
at the debate, did Donald Trump lose the twenty twenty election?
And after two weeks he finally said, no, he didn't.
That's where he's been spending his time.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
But that's it, Sol.
Speaker 8 (03:35):
Look, Elon's on that stage jumping around, skipping like a
dip on these things.
Speaker 7 (03:42):
You know it.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
You're going to criticize Donald Trump skipping like a dip.
Blank when you run around with jazz hands looking like
Richard Simmons having just on a game show.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Oh that's rich.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
People will ask me, Michael, who are these people cheering
at this rally?
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Are these people this dumb? They're getting paid?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
They've done the technology now, it's not even that advanced.
You can use relatively simple technology now, and there's a
very advanced technology that you can employ that will even
tell you more. And you can look at the phones
(04:35):
that are in a room at a rally like this
and immediately see that it's the same people who were
in Atlanta last week and at Philadelphia were there. They're
paying people and busting them and flying them from rally
to rally, because otherwise they wouldn't be anybody there, and
that would just be bad.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Tim Walls insult Elon.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Musk We first of all, Tim Walls mentioning the debate
with jd Vance. You're not supposed to do that, Timmy,
because that reminds people that that's where you said, for instance,
that you make friends.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
With school shooters.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
That was one of the worst debate performances I've ever
seen in my life. It was awful, far worse that
Joe Biden on June twenty six.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Far worse.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
But to criticize Elon Musk, who is under every governmental
restriction regulation attack with his businesses that are succeeding.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
And I'll remind you not that I need to that when.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
North Carolina needed resources and FEMA couldn't deliver despite billions
of dollars, they asked Elon to help, and he sent
Starlink in there that NASA can't figure out how to
get anything.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Off the ground.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
And he said, skyscrapers into the earth, into the orbit
and bringing them back and landing them, which NASA can't do.
He's boring tunnels on a level that our government's never
even approached. He's the top electric electric vehicle manufacturer. And
(06:21):
when the United States government holds a big last year,
a big EV conference, they don't even invite him.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Good grief.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
But for Tim Walls to criticize him, well that's rich.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
I gotta tell you. Does he ruz how goofy he looks?
Has has? Has no one told him? Remember when he.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Was introduced at the Democrat convention ocome the Democratic nominee
for Vice president Governor Tim Laws What I love about
(07:14):
Trump is he doesn't play by other people's rules.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
He just says what he thinks.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
And as he says, there's something wrong with that guy,
something wrong with Tim Watz.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
He lost everything but one state.
Speaker 9 (07:29):
Do you know what say to us Minnesota, the home
of the worst, stupidest, the stupidest man I've ever seen
run for office? Is there something wrong with that guy?
He's always bouncing, he's going with his heart. Yes, I
(07:49):
never got that, but there's something.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Wrong with that guy, I'm telling you.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Tucker Crosson says that it's because he's gay.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
And he's living a lie. You know, I would never
say that. I'm just a brother to Tucker's done you with? Tucker?
Speaker 10 (08:17):
You previously a fellows my assault weapons ban, but it
only later in your political career did you change your
position wide Michael.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Barry had become friends with school shooters.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Let's get to the devil in disguise, Kamala Harris. She
took an entire day off the campaign trail to prep
for an interview with Hallie Jackson of NBC. They are
desperate here. Interview starts off with a question about Joe
Biden and when did you know about his mental decline?
(08:52):
Keep in mind as you listen to this and just
trust me on this. This was a friendly interview that
was set up in advance. Kamala's schedule was cleared. Trump
doesn't get to do that. He goes boom boom, boom boom,
and he doesn't need to Kamala cannot make eye contact
while she's answering this question. Trust me when I tell
(09:15):
you that's an important detail here.
Speaker 10 (09:18):
You have made it clear that you believe this is
a binary choice between you and Donald Trump. It was
a cand that's on the ballot. There's so many course
your choices. And I know that Joe Biden is not
on the ballot. I understand that. But the reason that
you are at the top of the ticket is because
he dropped out of this race. And so I want
to ask you, and it was largely because of that
debate performance.
Speaker 7 (09:34):
Back in June.
Speaker 10 (09:35):
You defended him in the days before and in the
days after, as you were campaigning for another four years
for President Biden, can you say that you were honest
with the American people about what you saw in those
moments with President Biden as you were with him again
and again repeatedly in that time.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Of course, Joe Biden is an extremely accomplished, experienced, and
and capable in every way that anyone would want if
they're president.
Speaker 10 (10:06):
And you never saw anything like what happened at the
debate night behind closed doors with him.
Speaker 7 (10:10):
It was a bad debate. People have bad debates.
Speaker 10 (10:13):
Should he is absolutely, that's the reason why you're here.
And he's not running for the top of the ticket, Well,
you'd have to ask him if that's the only reason,
why what do you think? I am running for president
in the United States?
Speaker 7 (10:28):
Joe Biden is not.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
And my presidency will be about bringing a new generation
of leadership to America that is focused on the work
that we need to do to invest in the ambitions
and aspirations of the American people.
Speaker 7 (10:44):
It's a judgment question.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
That's why I ask, can.
Speaker 10 (10:46):
The American people trust you in these moments even when
it's maybe uncomfortable for Americans to have to level with
Americans in that way.
Speaker 7 (10:53):
So that's why I ask.
Speaker 10 (10:54):
And it sounds like what you're saying is you feel
like you never saw anything like that from President Biden.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
I have worked with Joe Biden, whether hours and hours
and hours over these four years, whether it be in
the situation room or the Oval office, Joe Biden is
the one who was able to bring NATO together during
a crisis where for the first time in seventy years,
Europe saw and has seen war. Joe Biden has done
(11:20):
the work that has been about being a leader on
what we have done to fix so much of what
has been broken in terms of the economy because of
Donald Trump's Smiths management. I speak with not only sincerity,
but with a real first hand account of watching him
do this work. I have no reluctance in saying that, no,
(11:42):
of course I don't.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I could have stopped that answer ten times. But I
also know that you picked up on every lie. She
told every irony do it, so I don't need to.
I don't need to.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Then she was asked, Hey, you're the vice president and
things are going awfully in this country because of your policies.
Do you think that's making voters kind of not like you.
Speaker 10 (12:21):
We were just talking about the campaign trail yesterday and
these key russ Belt battlegrounds as they call them, talking
with undecided voters, and we're reaching out that olive branch
to these voters.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
You want to bring them on board for them?
Speaker 10 (12:33):
For so many voters we know that a huge issue
for them is the economy, it's the cost of living.
I've been on the campaign trail, I hear that in
the field again and again. You look at some of
the numbers on this and our new NBC News poll
shows that more voters think that the Biden administration policies
have hurt them rather than help them. And I wonder
are the last four years an obstacle to you in
(12:54):
this race.
Speaker 7 (12:56):
Here's how I look at it.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
First of all, let me be very clear your mind
will not be a continuation of the Biden administration. I
bring my own experiences, my own ideas to it, and
it has informed a number of my areas of focus.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Wait what.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
See her big challenge is she's part of the Biden administration.
Either she's made no decisions, which they've alleged, or she's
made all the decisions, which Biden himself said two Friday
nights ago while she was at another rally.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
He stepped over it.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
But those decisions are awful, They're terrible, and you can't
simply say I'm not Joe Biden. Okay, Well, then show
us what you would do differently than Joe Biden, because
that's not what we're seeing right now. Remote you to
(14:00):
give me the top fifty opinion leaders of the Republican
Party right now, you would still not name the answer
that Kamala Harris just claimed that would be This is
a level, this is insulting the American people and particularly
Republican voters, on a level that it's this is an
(14:23):
epic troll, and that's what it is.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
This is a troll.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
I was just with one of the leaders and I
think opinion leaders in the Republican Party, Liz Cheney.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Yeah, Liz Cheney, an opinion leader in the Republican Party.
Speaker 7 (14:42):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
You just you just keep repeating that line.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
If that's going to serve you, well.
Speaker 7 (14:47):
We are going to the border. We've been to the border.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
You haven't been, Michael Ferry, and.
Speaker 7 (14:52):
I haven't been to you.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
So, if you're new to the show, and many of
you are, Leonard Skinner's my all time favorite band. And
if that shocks you, it's because most opinions that most
people have are because and they don't even realize it.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
They're just repeating what they were told.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
This band is good, this fan's the greatest, this band
is good, but not in that realm, and they never learned.
They never realized how influenced they were by that. That's
why we lose elections. People think the legacy media is objective,
and so when the legacy media says Trump's Hitler, Trump's
(15:35):
just like Hitler. Trump says these things, and then there's
supposedly a credible source, there's General Millie, and there's this person,
and Trump is Hitler.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
And so people who don't know any better.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Don't realize if they came to the conclusion that Trump
is Hitler, and they can never vote for him, and
they will vote for a person who's going to destroy
their life in Kamala Harris, and they don't even realize
how that decision was made.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Think I'm wrong. Let me ask you this.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Think about a food that you eat frequently, whatever that
might be, hamburger, pizza, roast, beef. You think you chose
to eat that because you didn't. You didn't. That's what
you were fed. That's what you as a nascent creature
(16:32):
before you were fully developed. That's what your mother was
eating while you were in her womb. That's mother's milk
to you. And then when you were born, they moved
you from apple sauce over to whatever that thing is
you're eating, and you started eating that, and you ate
(16:54):
it so consistently that by the time, by the time
you left home, you craved that. That's why we refer
to things that you crave, because they were as mother's mill.
That's what first satisfied you. You didn't choose hamburgers and
pizzas you might as just as any more than the
(17:17):
people in Japan choose sushi or whale or whatever else,
any more than the people in Ethiopia choose in Jerah
and Dora a lot, any more than the people in
Germany choose Strudel's. That's what you were fed, and that's
(17:41):
what you're comfortable with. Somebody from Lobanon it loves taboolly
and hummus and yeah, because that's what you were faied
Greeks loved. So those decisions were made before you were
conscious and they're drilled into your brain. So we think
we've come to our own conclusion. This is why the
(18:04):
media is so powerful. This is why the media is
so powerful, and this is why we have to come
to our own conclusions. And in that vein Ramon, I
would like to recite for you one of my favorite
poems if you would like this, this segment will be slugged.
Michael recites poetry. If I could have some nice poetry,
(18:29):
some nice poetry, reading music. The theme is going it alone,
choosing your own path. And and if you could remember
in Rocky when he went and trained out in the
in I think he was going to Russia.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
So maybe was in Russia. If you can.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Imagine a man out on on the side of a
mountain and it's snowy, and Dostoevsky's inside, you know, by
the candlelight.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
No too high, No, no, no too high.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
We need something a little more npr ish, you know,
a little more fireside chat refined, you know, maybe a
nice claret and in.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
A writing table. That'll word.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Okay, I shall now read poetry to you about taking
your own course. Yes you may not like this, but
at least you have to admit we do different things.
This is entitled The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost,
one of my all time favorite poems. Two Roads Diverged.
(19:38):
I can't lay hear the music. Well, oh you got it. Okay,
here we go. Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
and sorry I could not travel both and be one
traveler long. I stood and looked down one as far
as I could to where it bent in the undergrowth,
then took the other, as justice fair and having perhaps
(19:59):
the better claim, because it was grassy and wanted wear.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Though as for that, the passing there.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Had warned them really about the same, and both that
morning equally lay it leaves.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
No step had trodden black.
Speaker 7 (20:14):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
I kept the first for another day, yet, knowing how
way leads onto wigh, I doubt it. If I should
ever come back, I shall be telling this.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
With a sigh.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Somewhere ages and ages. Hence two roads diverged in.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
A wood, and I I took the one less traveled by,
and that has made all the difference.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
If you are an independent minded, free thinking American who
comes to your own conclusions without anyone else telling you,
and at great risk to yourself for holding those opinions,
in this segment is for you, bravo.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Now they have pledged to carry out the largest deportation,
a mass deportation.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Imagine what that would look like using dr.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Pair Warning new listeners, you'll figure these things out in time.
But one of my favorite things is songs that are
covered in a style outside the original genre, and another
one is English songs covered in foreign languages, because I
(22:07):
love when I'm traveling abroad and you hear a song
and there's the opening rif and you go, oh, yeah,
I'm about to get I'm about to hear this Africa
by Toto, and then all of a sudden, you go, whoa, Hey,
the French are great at that. The French will take
every song and put it into French, and I tend
(22:29):
to like them all. So Kamala Harris. This is really
turned out to be a bust.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
My goodness. You know what's scary. I shouldn't say this,
but I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
The advantage the Democrats have in this country because they
own the local governments, the city and county governments in
the big cities. That's where all their votes come. They
control those governments, so they can use use government employees
to run the campaigns and they administer the elections, and
(23:07):
you can't stop them because you don't have any of
your people in there. This is what's happening in Houston
Harris County. Then they have the media, the all powerful
legacy media that's growing less and less powerful by the day,
but the legacy media is still very influential in the
one demographic where they need to do well, and that
is undecided voters. People who are about this time of
(23:28):
the year go humhm, I think I might vote this time.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
I wonder who you know what.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
I'm gonna inform myself. I'm gonna check out the news.
I'm gonna see what's going on in the news. And
they have no idea that what you're about to get
is not the news. You know, when I was a
little kid, some of you probably did this. I grew
up in Orange, which is in southeast Texas on the
Louisiana border, and when we would be going on vacation,
(23:55):
my dad didn't make any money and there were a
bunch of us kids and my mom stated home to
take care of us. So money was very short, so
we'd be loaded up in the old we called the
banana wagon. It was an old, ugly yellow station wagon.
Now I don't want you to think that this is
one of those nice, fancy yellow station wagons with the
(24:16):
wood grain finished panel on the side.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Now, we weren't that fancy.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
This was the base model yellow Dodge station wagon. And
when I tell you, this thing was the ugliest thing
you've ever seen. You can't believe me until you actually
saw it. It was bad and it had no features,
no upgrades, no nothing. And that's where we went in
(24:42):
Bless my parents' heart. They were doing the best they
could and my dad, ever resourceful, had a little thing
he would do if you went. They had these little
time shares. There was a place called dan B. It
was sam and there was Danby. It was a little
lake where us Rednecks could go and get away from
(25:06):
town and you could you could pull up fifth wheel,
you could pull something up there, and maybe you could
rent a cabin and it was just a place to
go to do a little fishing and get away from
and people still go.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
There to this day.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
A lot of people from Orange go there, but we
couldn't afford a lot on the lake. But they knew
that this was their hotspot, so they would mail into Orange,
where we were from, because it was I don't know,
an hour hour and a half away, and they would
get a lot of working class people to.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Buy lots there.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
So if you would come there and listen to their spiel,
they would give you, say fifty dollars, because their theory
was if they could get you there to give their spiel.
They would they'd have you hooked right. So my parents
(25:58):
would go in listen you, or they come out with
fifty dollars in a toaster and we would sit out
in the car. And today, if if i'm my kids
have to sit out, I'm we're running the air conditioning.
I'm not getting back into a hot car. But in
those days, you just rolled the window down and panted
like a dog until your parents came back two hours later.
(26:21):
Fifty dollars richer out of the deal. So if you
went into that little sales pitch for the timeshare and
you think you're going in there to learn the pluses
and minuses of this sales of this timeshare, then you're
not very smart. My dad went in with his mind locked.
(26:43):
I'm gonna sit and watch your mouth move. I'm gonna
pretend to hear what you're saying, but under no circumstances
am I signing anything. And you're gonna give him my
fifty bucks and my toaster because that's that was the deal.
So what Americans, what you do that your neighbors may
(27:06):
not have figured out yet, is no matter how much
you are exposed to this evil, you're la la la
la la la la. You will not let it affect
you alas too many of our neighbors do. I have
come to realize in the last few years, and it's
(27:28):
it's an awkward it's an awkward emotion, but it's true.
I have come to realize that naivete is the death
of our republic. You know, you got the evil liberals,
you got the people in doctrine. Have you got the
people that the minute they get control, they will they
(27:51):
will torture us and kill.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Us, and they will enjoy doing it.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
But they will come to power not on the strength
of their number, because we still have the numbers. They
will come to power on the basis And this is
the really tragic part of very good natured people. Some
of you have a family member like this. I had
(28:17):
a friend pretty well to do guy, tell me a
few weeks ago. I can't remember what Kamala had done,
but this friend of mine said that it had gotten
so bad that his wife had decided that even though
she figured she would never vote for Trump, she may
actually just go ahead and vote for Trump this time.
And I thought, man, this is crazy. Kamala's policies would
(28:39):
hurt them they're pretty wealthy. You know how many million
dollars it will cost you if Kamala becomes president and
they have an estate, they have a lot of children.
When you look at that, thirteen million versus seven million
for the size of your estate, more people qualify for
that than you realize. See where a lot of people
(29:01):
don't understand is they think that all these Democrat plans
to steal your money. They think, oh, that's just for
the rich people. No, you're rich by that standard. Our
problem is not that the other side is more powerful.
Our problem is that Middle America's to naive. They don't
(29:22):
want to believe what you tell them. How many times
have they said, have you tried to explain? And they go, oh,
I don't believe. I mean, I know Kamala has got
her problems and all, but they would never and they
would never. I think y'all get carried away.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
Naivete.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
And you know, great civilizations have collapsed because they didn't
believe that what was coming over the hill was an
invading army. You still got a lot of people who
don't understand how bad the people coming in our southern
border are. Oh you know, that's just people scared of
them because they speak a different language and all that.
What if they're Cartael members and a sex triver, you know,
(30:04):
that's you know, they're just they're not mad.
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
So Michael Arry Show is.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
On the air.
Speaker 4 (00:16):
Joe's legacy of accomplishment over the past three and a
half years is unmatched in modern history. In one term,
he has already surpassed the legacy of most presidents who
served two terms in office.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
As you are.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
When it comes to the economy, do you believe Americans
are better off than they were four years ago?
Speaker 4 (00:45):
So I was raised as a middle class kid who.
Speaker 5 (00:50):
Time live to me live the way you see.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
An undocumented immigrant is not a criminal, and we that's
a correct course in this conversation.
Speaker 6 (01:06):
Una personae fish not escreminae.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
I will snatch their catage so that we will take over.
And yes we can do that. Yes, because we can
do that. Yes we can do that. It's it's the
question do you have the will.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
To do it. I have the will to do it.
Speaker 7 (01:38):
We are going to the border. We've been to the border.
So this whole, this whole, this whole thing about the border.
We've been to the border. We've been to the border.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
You haven't been to the border, and.
Speaker 7 (01:49):
I haven't been to Europe.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
And ask there is a balance to be struck between
being top a damp bitch.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Before we get back to the devil in disguise, Let's
get back.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
To the.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
According to Tucker crossing gay guys in disguise, Tim Walls.
Tim Wats is one of the least self aware people
I've ever seen in public life. He was one of
the speakers at a Kamala rally in Detroit. First he
calls Elon Musk, donald Trump's running mate, and then he
(02:55):
calls out Elon Musk for for you know what, No, no, no,
I'm gonna let you hear it for yourself.
Speaker 8 (03:03):
Well, look, I'm not going to waste all the time
I'm in. I'm going to talk about his running mate,
his running mate, Elon Musk.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Seriously, seriously, where is Senator Vance?
Speaker 8 (03:23):
After you got asked the simplest question in the world
at the debate, did Donald Trump lose the twenty twenty election?
And after two weeks he finally said, no, he didn't.
That's where he's been spending his time.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
But that's it, Sol.
Speaker 8 (03:35):
Look, Elon's on that stage jumping around, skipping like a
dip on these things.
Speaker 7 (03:42):
You know it.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
You're going to criticize Donald Trump skipping like a dip.
Blank when you run around with jazz hands looking like
Richard Simmons having just on a game show.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Oh that's rich.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
People will ask me, Michael, who are these people cheering
at this rally?
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Are these people this dumb? They're getting paid?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
They've done the technology now, it's not even that advanced.
You can use relatively simple technology now, and there's a
very advanced technology that you can employ that will even
tell you more. And you can look at the phones
(04:35):
that are in a room at a rally like this
and immediately see that it's the same people who were
in Atlanta last week and at Philadelphia were there. They're
paying people and busting them and flying them from rally
to rally, because otherwise they wouldn't be anybody there, and
that would just be bad.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Tim Walls insult Elon.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Musk We first of all, Tim Walls mentioning the debate
with jd Vance. You're not supposed to do that, Timmy,
because that reminds people that that's where you said, for instance,
that you make friends.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
With school shooters.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
That was one of the worst debate performances I've ever
seen in my life. It was awful, far worse that
Joe Biden on June twenty six.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Far worse.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
But to criticize Elon Musk, who is under every governmental
restriction regulation attack with his businesses that are succeeding.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
And I'll remind you not that I need to that when.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
North Carolina needed resources and FEMA couldn't deliver despite billions
of dollars, they asked Elon to help, and he sent
Starlink in there that NASA can't figure out how to
get anything.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Off the ground.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
And he said, skyscrapers into the earth, into the orbit
and bringing them back and landing them, which NASA can't do.
He's boring tunnels on a level that our government's never
even approached. He's the top electric electric vehicle manufacturer. And
(06:21):
when the United States government holds a big last year,
a big EV conference, they don't even invite him.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Good grief.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
But for Tim Walls to criticize him, well that's rich.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
I gotta tell you. Does he ruz how goofy he looks?
Has has? Has no one told him? Remember when he.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Was introduced at the Democrat convention ocome the Democratic nominee
for Vice president Governor Tim Laws What I love about
(07:14):
Trump is he doesn't play by other people's rules.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
He just says what he thinks.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
And as he says, there's something wrong with that guy,
something wrong with Tim Watz.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
He lost everything but one state.
Speaker 9 (07:29):
Do you know what say to us Minnesota, the home
of the worst, stupidest, the stupidest man I've ever seen
run for office? Is there something wrong with that guy?
He's always bouncing, he's going with his heart. Yes, I
(07:49):
never got that, but there's something.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Wrong with that guy, I'm telling you.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Tucker Crosson says that it's because he's gay.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
And he's living a lie. You know, I would never
say that. I'm just a brother to Tucker's done you with? Tucker?
Speaker 10 (08:17):
You previously a fellows my assault weapons ban, but it
only later in your political career did you change your
position wide Michael.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Barry had become friends with school shooters.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Let's get to the devil in disguise, Kamala Harris. She
took an entire day off the campaign trail to prep
for an interview with Hallie Jackson of NBC. They are
desperate here. Interview starts off with a question about Joe
Biden and when did you know about his mental decline?
(08:52):
Keep in mind as you listen to this and just
trust me on this. This was a friendly interview that
was set up in advance. Kamala's schedule was cleared. Trump
doesn't get to do that. He goes boom boom, boom boom,
and he doesn't need to Kamala cannot make eye contact
while she's answering this question. Trust me when I tell
(09:15):
you that's an important detail here.
Speaker 10 (09:18):
You have made it clear that you believe this is
a binary choice between you and Donald Trump. It was
a cand that's on the ballot. There's so many course
your choices. And I know that Joe Biden is not
on the ballot. I understand that. But the reason that
you are at the top of the ticket is because
he dropped out of this race. And so I want
to ask you, and it was largely because of that
debate performance.
Speaker 7 (09:34):
Back in June.
Speaker 10 (09:35):
You defended him in the days before and in the
days after, as you were campaigning for another four years
for President Biden, can you say that you were honest
with the American people about what you saw in those
moments with President Biden as you were with him again
and again repeatedly in that time.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Of course, Joe Biden is an extremely accomplished, experienced, and
and capable in every way that anyone would want if
they're president.
Speaker 10 (10:06):
And you never saw anything like what happened at the
debate night behind closed doors with him.
Speaker 7 (10:10):
It was a bad debate. People have bad debates.
Speaker 10 (10:13):
Should he is absolutely, that's the reason why you're here.
And he's not running for the top of the ticket, Well,
you'd have to ask him if that's the only reason,
why what do you think? I am running for president
in the United States?
Speaker 7 (10:28):
Joe Biden is not.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
And my presidency will be about bringing a new generation
of leadership to America that is focused on the work
that we need to do to invest in the ambitions
and aspirations of the American people.
Speaker 7 (10:44):
It's a judgment question.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
That's why I ask, can.
Speaker 10 (10:46):
The American people trust you in these moments even when
it's maybe uncomfortable for Americans to have to level with
Americans in that way.
Speaker 7 (10:53):
So that's why I ask.
Speaker 10 (10:54):
And it sounds like what you're saying is you feel
like you never saw anything like that from President Biden.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
I have worked with Joe Biden, whether hours and hours
and hours over these four years, whether it be in
the situation room or the Oval office, Joe Biden is
the one who was able to bring NATO together during
a crisis where for the first time in seventy years,
Europe saw and has seen war. Joe Biden has done
(11:20):
the work that has been about being a leader on
what we have done to fix so much of what
has been broken in terms of the economy because of
Donald Trump's Smiths management. I speak with not only sincerity,
but with a real first hand account of watching him
do this work. I have no reluctance in saying that, no,
(11:42):
of course I don't.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I could have stopped that answer ten times. But I
also know that you picked up on every lie. She
told every irony do it, so I don't need to.
I don't need to.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Then she was asked, Hey, you're the vice president and
things are going awfully in this country because of your policies.
Do you think that's making voters kind of not like you.
Speaker 10 (12:21):
We were just talking about the campaign trail yesterday and
these key russ Belt battlegrounds as they call them, talking
with undecided voters, and we're reaching out that olive branch
to these voters.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
You want to bring them on board for them?
Speaker 10 (12:33):
For so many voters we know that a huge issue
for them is the economy, it's the cost of living.
I've been on the campaign trail, I hear that in
the field again and again. You look at some of
the numbers on this and our new NBC News poll
shows that more voters think that the Biden administration policies
have hurt them rather than help them. And I wonder
are the last four years an obstacle to you in
(12:54):
this race.
Speaker 7 (12:56):
Here's how I look at it.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
First of all, let me be very clear your mind
will not be a continuation of the Biden administration. I
bring my own experiences, my own ideas to it, and
it has informed a number of my areas of focus.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Wait what.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
See her big challenge is she's part of the Biden administration.
Either she's made no decisions, which they've alleged, or she's
made all the decisions, which Biden himself said two Friday
nights ago while she was at another rally.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
He stepped over it.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
But those decisions are awful, They're terrible, and you can't
simply say I'm not Joe Biden. Okay, Well, then show
us what you would do differently than Joe Biden, because
that's not what we're seeing right now. Remote you to
(14:00):
give me the top fifty opinion leaders of the Republican
Party right now, you would still not name the answer
that Kamala Harris just claimed that would be This is
a level, this is insulting the American people and particularly
Republican voters, on a level that it's this is an
(14:23):
epic troll, and that's what it is.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
This is a troll.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
I was just with one of the leaders and I
think opinion leaders in the Republican Party, Liz Cheney.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Yeah, Liz Cheney, an opinion leader in the Republican Party.
Speaker 7 (14:42):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
You just you just keep repeating that line.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
If that's going to serve you, well.
Speaker 7 (14:47):
We are going to the border. We've been to the border.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
You haven't been, Michael Ferry, and.
Speaker 7 (14:52):
I haven't been to you.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
So, if you're new to the show, and many of
you are, Leonard Skinner's my all time favorite band. And
if that shocks you, it's because most opinions that most
people have are because and they don't even realize it.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
They're just repeating what they were told.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
This band is good, this fan's the greatest, this band
is good, but not in that realm, and they never learned.
They never realized how influenced they were by that. That's
why we lose elections. People think the legacy media is objective,
and so when the legacy media says Trump's Hitler, Trump's
(15:35):
just like Hitler. Trump says these things, and then there's
supposedly a credible source, there's General Millie, and there's this person,
and Trump is Hitler.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
And so people who don't know any better.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Don't realize if they came to the conclusion that Trump
is Hitler, and they can never vote for him, and
they will vote for a person who's going to destroy
their life in Kamala Harris, and they don't even realize
how that decision was made.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Think I'm wrong. Let me ask you this.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Think about a food that you eat frequently, whatever that
might be, hamburger, pizza, roast, beef. You think you chose
to eat that because you didn't. You didn't. That's what
you were fed. That's what you as a nascent creature
(16:32):
before you were fully developed. That's what your mother was
eating while you were in her womb. That's mother's milk
to you. And then when you were born, they moved
you from apple sauce over to whatever that thing is
you're eating, and you started eating that, and you ate
(16:54):
it so consistently that by the time, by the time
you left home, you craved that. That's why we refer
to things that you crave, because they were as mother's mill.
That's what first satisfied you. You didn't choose hamburgers and
pizzas you might as just as any more than the
(17:17):
people in Japan choose sushi or whale or whatever else,
any more than the people in Ethiopia choose in Jerah
and Dora a lot, any more than the people in
Germany choose Strudel's. That's what you were fed, and that's
(17:41):
what you're comfortable with. Somebody from Lobanon it loves taboolly
and hummus and yeah, because that's what you were faied
Greeks loved. So those decisions were made before you were
conscious and they're drilled into your brain. So we think
we've come to our own conclusion. This is why the
(18:04):
media is so powerful. This is why the media is
so powerful, and this is why we have to come
to our own conclusions. And in that vein Ramon, I
would like to recite for you one of my favorite
poems if you would like this, this segment will be slugged.
Michael recites poetry. If I could have some nice poetry,
(18:29):
some nice poetry, reading music. The theme is going it alone,
choosing your own path. And and if you could remember
in Rocky when he went and trained out in the
in I think he was going to Russia.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
So maybe was in Russia. If you can.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Imagine a man out on on the side of a
mountain and it's snowy, and Dostoevsky's inside, you know, by
the candlelight.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
No too high, No, no, no too high.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
We need something a little more npr ish, you know,
a little more fireside chat refined, you know, maybe a
nice claret and in.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
A writing table. That'll word.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Okay, I shall now read poetry to you about taking
your own course. Yes you may not like this, but
at least you have to admit we do different things.
This is entitled The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost,
one of my all time favorite poems. Two Roads Diverged.
(19:38):
I can't lay hear the music. Well, oh you got it. Okay,
here we go. Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
and sorry I could not travel both and be one
traveler long. I stood and looked down one as far
as I could to where it bent in the undergrowth,
then took the other, as justice fair and having perhaps
(19:59):
the better claim, because it was grassy and wanted wear.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Though as for that, the passing there.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Had warned them really about the same, and both that
morning equally lay it leaves.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
No step had trodden black.
Speaker 7 (20:14):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
I kept the first for another day, yet, knowing how
way leads onto wigh, I doubt it. If I should
ever come back, I shall be telling this.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
With a sigh.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Somewhere ages and ages. Hence two roads diverged in.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
A wood, and I I took the one less traveled by,
and that has made all the difference.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
If you are an independent minded, free thinking American who
comes to your own conclusions without anyone else telling you,
and at great risk to yourself for holding those opinions,
in this segment is for you, bravo.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Now they have pledged to carry out the largest deportation,
a mass deportation.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Imagine what that would look like using dr.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Pair Warning new listeners, you'll figure these things out in time.
But one of my favorite things is songs that are
covered in a style outside the original genre, and another
one is English songs covered in foreign languages, because I
(22:07):
love when I'm traveling abroad and you hear a song
and there's the opening rif and you go, oh, yeah,
I'm about to get I'm about to hear this Africa
by Toto, and then all of a sudden, you go, whoa, Hey,
the French are great at that. The French will take
every song and put it into French, and I tend
(22:29):
to like them all. So Kamala Harris. This is really
turned out to be a bust.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
My goodness. You know what's scary. I shouldn't say this,
but I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
The advantage the Democrats have in this country because they
own the local governments, the city and county governments in
the big cities. That's where all their votes come. They
control those governments, so they can use use government employees
to run the campaigns and they administer the elections, and
(23:07):
you can't stop them because you don't have any of
your people in there. This is what's happening in Houston
Harris County. Then they have the media, the all powerful
legacy media that's growing less and less powerful by the day,
but the legacy media is still very influential in the
one demographic where they need to do well, and that
is undecided voters. People who are about this time of
(23:28):
the year go humhm, I think I might vote this time.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
I wonder who you know what.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
I'm gonna inform myself. I'm gonna check out the news.
I'm gonna see what's going on in the news. And
they have no idea that what you're about to get
is not the news. You know, when I was a
little kid, some of you probably did this. I grew
up in Orange, which is in southeast Texas on the
Louisiana border, and when we would be going on vacation,
(23:55):
my dad didn't make any money and there were a
bunch of us kids and my mom stated home to
take care of us. So money was very short, so
we'd be loaded up in the old we called the
banana wagon. It was an old, ugly yellow station wagon.
Now I don't want you to think that this is
one of those nice, fancy yellow station wagons with the
(24:16):
wood grain finished panel on the side.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Now, we weren't that fancy.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
This was the base model yellow Dodge station wagon. And
when I tell you, this thing was the ugliest thing
you've ever seen. You can't believe me until you actually
saw it. It was bad and it had no features,
no upgrades, no nothing. And that's where we went in
(24:42):
Bless my parents' heart. They were doing the best they
could and my dad, ever resourceful, had a little thing
he would do if you went. They had these little
time shares. There was a place called dan B. It
was sam and there was Danby. It was a little
lake where us Rednecks could go and get away from
(25:06):
town and you could you could pull up fifth wheel,
you could pull something up there, and maybe you could
rent a cabin and it was just a place to
go to do a little fishing and get away from
and people still go.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
There to this day.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
A lot of people from Orange go there, but we
couldn't afford a lot on the lake. But they knew
that this was their hotspot, so they would mail into Orange,
where we were from, because it was I don't know,
an hour hour and a half away, and they would
get a lot of working class people to.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Buy lots there.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
So if you would come there and listen to their spiel,
they would give you, say fifty dollars, because their theory
was if they could get you there to give their spiel.
They would they'd have you hooked right. So my parents
(25:58):
would go in listen you, or they come out with
fifty dollars in a toaster and we would sit out
in the car. And today, if if i'm my kids
have to sit out, I'm we're running the air conditioning.
I'm not getting back into a hot car. But in
those days, you just rolled the window down and panted
like a dog until your parents came back two hours later.
(26:21):
Fifty dollars richer out of the deal. So if you
went into that little sales pitch for the timeshare and
you think you're going in there to learn the pluses
and minuses of this sales of this timeshare, then you're
not very smart. My dad went in with his mind locked.
(26:43):
I'm gonna sit and watch your mouth move. I'm gonna
pretend to hear what you're saying, but under no circumstances
am I signing anything. And you're gonna give him my
fifty bucks and my toaster because that's that was the deal.
So what Americans, what you do that your neighbors may
(27:06):
not have figured out yet, is no matter how much
you are exposed to this evil, you're la la la
la la la la. You will not let it affect
you alas too many of our neighbors do. I have
come to realize in the last few years, and it's
(27:28):
it's an awkward it's an awkward emotion, but it's true.
I have come to realize that naivete is the death
of our republic. You know, you got the evil liberals,
you got the people in doctrine. Have you got the
people that the minute they get control, they will they
(27:51):
will torture us and kill.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Us, and they will enjoy doing it.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
But they will come to power not on the strength
of their number, because we still have the numbers. They
will come to power on the basis And this is
the really tragic part of very good natured people. Some
of you have a family member like this. I had
(28:17):
a friend pretty well to do guy, tell me a
few weeks ago. I can't remember what Kamala had done,
but this friend of mine said that it had gotten
so bad that his wife had decided that even though
she figured she would never vote for Trump, she may
actually just go ahead and vote for Trump this time.
And I thought, man, this is crazy. Kamala's policies would
(28:39):
hurt them they're pretty wealthy. You know how many million
dollars it will cost you if Kamala becomes president and
they have an estate, they have a lot of children.
When you look at that, thirteen million versus seven million
for the size of your estate, more people qualify for
that than you realize. See where a lot of people
(29:01):
don't understand is they think that all these Democrat plans
to steal your money. They think, oh, that's just for
the rich people. No, you're rich by that standard. Our
problem is not that the other side is more powerful.
Our problem is that Middle America's to naive. They don't
(29:22):
want to believe what you tell them. How many times
have they said, have you tried to explain? And they go, oh,
I don't believe. I mean, I know Kamala has got
her problems and all, but they would never and they
would never. I think y'all get carried away.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
Naivete.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
And you know, great civilizations have collapsed because they didn't
believe that what was coming over the hill was an
invading army. You still got a lot of people who
don't understand how bad the people coming in our southern
border are. Oh you know, that's just people scared of
them because they speak a different language and all that.
What if they're Cartael members and a sex triver, you know,
(30:04):
that's you know, they're just they're not mad.
