Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time time, time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
President Trump announcing more lawsuits for election interference. Let me
tell you something, those people have been allowed to run
them up for too long. If you just turn the
other cheek and hope they don't continue to do it,
(00:54):
you are asking for trouble. The only thing they understand
is being being broken. The only thing they understand is
being bankrupted. What Hulk Hogan did Vice magazine. People say
what they want, but it made every person at every
(01:14):
magazine stop and think before they go off half cocked
saying stupid stuff. After that, here's President Trump talking about
the fact, Hey, I'm not done with the reckoning. They're
gonna be there's gonna be accountability here.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
I'm going to be bringing one against the people in Iowa.
Their newspaper which had a very very good polster who
got me right all the time, and then just before
the election she said I was going to lose by
three or four points. That it became the biggest story
all over the world because I was gonna win Iowa
by twenty points. The farmers loved me, and I love
(01:50):
the farmers, and it was interesting the way she did it.
She brought it down two weeks before. She said I
was going to only win by four. That was a
big story. But that was good because so she brought
it down from like twenty two points to four or whatever.
The number was way up, way up, easy, when we
never even thought to go there. I respect him, I
love him, and they understand there's no reason to go
(02:12):
there because she brought it from way up walk away,
which it was, and it turned out to be in
the election too, by the way, it was a win
by many, many points. And then she brought it down
very smartly to four a couple of weeks before, and
everyone said, wow, that's amazing, he's only up by four points.
Then she brought it down to where I was down
by three or four whatever number she used, and that
(02:36):
was the Des Moines register and it was their parent
and in my opinion, it was fraud and it was
election interference. You know, she's gotten me right always. She's
a very good polster. She knows what she was doing.
And she then quit before and we'll probably be filing
a major lawsuit against them today or tomorrow. We're filing
(02:56):
one on sixty minutes, you know, about that where they
took com his answer, which was a crazy answer, a
horrible answer, and they took the whole answer out and
they replaced it with something else. She said later on.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
A selection interference, you cannot do that. The press in
this country has a lot of protections that a private
citizen does not, but with those protections come certain responsibilities
as to how you wield that weapon, and when they
do so outside the standard of care, there is liability,
(03:34):
and he's going to prove it and he's going to
expose it. There's a woman named Kelly Robinson who is
the president of the Human Rights League, one of those organizations,
and she was being questioned by Senator Ted Cruz at
a Senate hearing and she would not answer a very
simple question about women's sports. We've wasted so much time
(03:58):
and energy in this country arguing with these people who
want to send grown men into girls' locker rooms, who
want grown men to compete against girls in sports and
hurt them, against grown men who want to claim that
they're women and take the positions that women used to have.
(04:20):
And Ted Cruz absolutely exposes the ridiculousness of this kind
of mindset with a very simple question. This is how
you do.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
It, trying to get a yes or no. I'm not
trying to get a speech.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
Oh.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
Is there a difference between women and men?
Speaker 5 (04:41):
I think that there are definitions for biological sex.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
So you're not asked. Friends, let me ask you this question. Then,
why do women's sports exist? If you can't define a
difference between women and men, why not abolish women's sports
and just tell little girls to swim with little boys
and see who wins.
Speaker 6 (04:57):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
I'm simply saying that.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
That secks my question. Why do leave? Why do women?
Speaker 5 (05:03):
It's a great value, I mean, senator, I'll take.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
You, Miss Robinson, please answer the question. I'm asking you
absolutely why do women's sports exist?
Speaker 5 (05:10):
I think that there are so many positive benefits to sports.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
But why have a secard back category for women? If
there's no difference between women and men, why to have
women's sports.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
I'm saying that there's a difference between sex and gender,
and that the NCAA has rules in place which they
have for.
Speaker 4 (05:25):
The last decade. Pairman, I would like to enter the record.
An article from Duke Law called comparing athletic performances for
the best elite women to boys and men and it
goes through examining. In twenty seventeen, the top records for
women in the world in various track and field events. So,
for example, in the one hundred meter the top record
for women in the world was ten point seventy one seconds.
(05:48):
Now that record for the number one women in the
world in twenty seventeen was in the year twenty seventeen
broken by one hundred and twenty four boys under eighteen.
In that same year, the record for the number one
competing woman in the hundred yard one hundred meter dash
in the world was broken by a total of two
(06:09):
four hundred and seventy four men.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Did you hear that you have women's sports because women
should only have to compete against other people endowed as
they are, built as they are. The moment the left
created an argument as to whether men and women are
(06:34):
actually different, that is the decline of our country. I
read yesterday about a Department of Justice expenditure for a
study that was commissioned for some non binary woman who
(06:54):
tries to dress like a man, looks like David Bowie,
and she who calls herself He was doing research trying
to normalize what she calls or he calls or whatever
this thing calls minor attracted persons. That's a pedophile, an
(07:17):
adult that wants to have sex with a child. Language
is power, orwell was very clear. When you can change
what a word means, change that word, then you can
(07:38):
suck the power from it and redefine it. You can
win arguments without ever stating a case. Minor attracted person
is a euphemism for mostly men who want to have
sex with little girls and little boys. That the vast
(08:00):
majority of it is that, and that gets back into
these people who are sexually dysfunctional. Are these people who
are fantasizing about their childhood? That's statutory rape. And we
can never ever allow anyone Our government is paying for
this crap.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
What champ?
Speaker 6 (08:23):
Allow me to introduce myself.
Speaker 7 (08:25):
My name is Mitchen Michael Erry genius.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
We've been so serious today. Let's have a good laugh,
shall we. What will Kamala Harris do now that she
has disgraced herself, her party, her abusive husband, Joe Biden,
her campaign, Well, you think she'd run hot under a rock?
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Right?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Impure? Shame they spent over a billion dollars trying to
get you elected. You were handed the campaign not only
did you squander it, you made a mockery of Democrat donors.
Everything you did was cringe. So you go home to
(09:20):
California and you run for governor. CNN with the report.
Speaker 8 (09:27):
Tell us what the likelihood is of Harris running for governor.
What she's been saying to people over the last couple
of weeks, donors, other supporters that she's been I've been
talking with, is you haven't seen the last of me.
I'm not going quietly into the night. Advisors people close
to are debating about what that means. They do not
want her final official act ever to be essentially certifying
(09:48):
Donald Trump's win over her, especially four years after January sixth,
and so they look at this governor's race in California
in twenty twenty six and it seems to them.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Like a layup.
Speaker 8 (09:59):
Essentially, she would probably clear the field or mostly clear
the field, and she would get to be governor of California.
It's a pretty good job, right, It was good enough
for Ronald brag And, Ernold Schwarzenegger, Jerry Brown. But if
she does that, that means that she couldn't turn around
and run for president again in twenty twenty eight right.
She'd need to essentially declare right away, and that is
what it really comes down to, because there are people
(10:22):
close to her who say she didn't get a fair
shot this year. It wasn't up to what she could
have done, and look how well she performed. Anyway, she
should get to go again in twenty twenty eight. And
then there are ones who say, look with where things
are with Democratic Party, she would not have a clear field,
a cleared field rather in the Democratic primer and could
(10:45):
lose the nomination and to come off of twenty twenty
four into that would be really terrible.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
In my career, I started professionally as a lawyer at
a large law firm. I left from them and got
into real estate development brokerage. I from there went into
being a city councilman for the fourth largest city in America, Houston,
(11:14):
and rose to be the mayor pro tem. I ran
for mayor and didn't win. No Republican ever has it's
a Democrat city. I went from there to running radio
stations and doing a show, to the show getting picked
up by other markets before it was syndicated, and stepping
(11:35):
down from running the stations to focus on the show.
Now that it had grown. In the meantime, I started
an internet company. I've been involved behind the scenes with
a number of campaigns, and I've invested in real estate
and other ventures. And I have remarked of the various
(12:02):
fields in my career which are disparate, I've never seen
anything like radio. Because there will be a station manager
in Des Moines, Iowa who will be from Pensacola, Florida,
and then got promoted to go to Atlanta, and then
(12:24):
went from there to Boise, and then from there to
a small town in Arizona and then moves over to
Des Moines. And they might be single, or they might
be dragging a wife with them. It's always men, and
you go, why do you keep moving cities? Because they
(12:47):
want to be in radio, because they love radio so much.
They cannot imagine doing anything other than radio. There's nothing
else that turns their gears. There are things that pay better,
there are things with fewer hours and less stress, there
are things with more job security. But radio people are
(13:13):
radio people. They don't leave radio to go into other industries.
They've been a radio person since they were hanging around
the station as a teenager. Many of them started as
a teenager in a small station in a small town.
They worked overnight. Ramon worked overnights, very common in the
(13:35):
business to work the worst shifts on the worst station,
to holidays, all of it, Christmas, Thanksgiving, hurricanes. Thank you, Remama.
I got this one by myself, but I appreciate you. Yeah,
after twenty six years, I think you've got PTSD. But
(13:55):
I say all that to say this. There's something about
radio that radio people is a drug and nothing else
satisfies them. But government was not supposed to be that way.
Government was supposed to be public service. So what is
(14:18):
it about government that Kamala Harris can't let it go?
If she was at the top of her game, with contacts,
with a legal background, with a political background, she could
she could work with an investment fund, she could serve
(14:40):
on the board of directors of companies if she was
at the top of her game. But she's a dumb
dumb There is something to the power that these people
can't let go. Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden. It was never
meant to be a career. And it's not that these
(15:04):
people have a heart for service. You know, you see
a preacher who will preach their ministry is the entirety
of their lives. They'll drag their poor wife and kids
from church to church to church. You see these people
that have a real ministry for helping people, and they'll
(15:26):
get moved. The Catholic Church will.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
Move people all over the world to serve.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
You see missionaries who do that, and they will move
anywhere anytime because that. But Kamala Harris going back to
run for governor is because of the graft and corruption
and there's nothing else for her and that's not what
government was supposed to be.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Michael Berry's show.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Don't Give Up to You and Drink from the silver
cover moments. This Bill maher is a is an interesting
cat because he's a classical old white liberal who thinks
(16:17):
he's really smart, but he's not dumb, but he's too
clever by half. And he's a kind of guy who's
kind of resentful of white males who are successful. And
that's I think he probably got picked on for being
a little guy and not being able to throw a
(16:38):
ball or run fast or talk to girls when he
was younger, and it created a bitterness in him. But
even he the Democrat Party has been so bad of
late that even he has come out and made some statements.
He gave a fifty six seconds. So let's say a
(16:58):
one minute recitation of what went wrong with the Democrats
and how.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Bad off.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
They are. And let's be clear, it's not just their
elected officials and their consultants and their operatives. It really
is the culture of the cat ladies. It really is
the culture. You can see them at the grocery store,
the person with the purple hair, the T shirts with
(17:28):
the cuss words on them. It's often fat, ugly women
who are angry at everybody. They're usually painfully single. It's
people who are unhappy with the sex they were born into,
so they kind of want to make themselves interesting, so
they decided they're the opposite sex.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Weird.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
They're never happy with how they make a living, they're
never happy in their relationships, and so what they do
is they lash out like a main dog at everybody
and everything. And what happens is they get so disconnected
from it. They become so unmoored, like a ship out
(18:11):
at sea, untethered to any real values, that they end
up hating everyone and everything. And this is how they
end up taking up really crazy positions. Whatever makes you angry.
That's what they're for anyway. Bill maher in one minute
kind of captures it.
Speaker 9 (18:33):
You wear queers for Palestine t shirts and masks two
years after the pandemic ended, and you can't define woman,
I mean person who menstruates. You're the Teachers' Union education Party,
and you've turned schools and colleges into a joke. But
a shocker that the people who see everything through the
lens of race and sex see their election loss as
(18:55):
a result of racism and sexism. Kamala has spent one
hundred days telling I know it feels like crime and
a legal immigration are bad, but feelings. Look at this
chart you've seen in this house. We believe lawn sign
see it says right on it. We believe in science, right,
which is why you demanded no one even debate whether
(19:16):
COVID could have escaped from the one lab in the
one city where they were studying it. How far fetched.
Democrats have become like a royal family that, because of
so much incest, has unfortunately had children who are retarded.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
He mentioned the Party of Science. RFK Junior said something
we've been screaming from the rooftops here for years and
a lot of others, many of you as well. Trust
the experts is not a tenet of science. The scientific
method requires that whatever is established must always be questioned.
(19:56):
You don't have sadducees who sit on high and can't
be questioned. People who are self appointed experts and no
one can dare challenge them because they are the expert
or hiding something. This is how you end up with
bad results. We shouldn't need to trust the experts. We
(20:20):
should be able to question things. That's how you question everything,
that's how you get the best results.
Speaker 6 (20:29):
This phrase trust the experts, it's not a thing. It
certainly is not a feature of democracy. It's not a
feature of science and science you don't trust the experts never. Oh,
I've sued five I've had over five hundred cases, and
(20:50):
in each one of them there were scientific controversy and
there was experts on both sides. When I assume mon Santo,
Monsanto came in with experts from Stanford, Harvard and Yale.
My wife, who's an actor, came to court that day
on the last day in their testimony. She watched these
(21:11):
people and then afterwards, and they're so convincing. She walked
out and she said, why are you even troubling these
this poor company to me? And I would like wait
till tomorrow. The next day we had our experts from Harvard, Stanford,
and Yale, and the jury gave us two point two
billion dollars. They had heard both of them and they
(21:34):
had to decide which expert is lying. And experts have
their own prejuice, they are their own biases and their
own ambitions, et cetera. And so it's not you know,
trusting the experts is not a feature of science. It's
not a feature of democracy. It's a feature of religion
and totalitarianism. But it's not something we do.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Very well. Said Scott Jennings, who had a phenomenal year
as the Voice of Reason on CNN, said something that
I think is just perfect. Science needs to go back
to being science and not some religion. This worshiping Fauci
(22:19):
and worshiping that the experts, this is nonsense. It's got
to stop.
Speaker 10 (22:26):
So we're not here talking about COVID vaccines, right, We're
talking about measles, measles months and rubella. Trump is now
all of a sudden saying that he doesn't think that
that necessarily should be a part of when you send
your kids to school and you're hoping that everybody around
them is vaccinated adequately for these old illnesses that could
kill them.
Speaker 11 (22:46):
I think there's a number of things going on today.
Number One, RFK hit the right note on Capitol Hill
on the polio vaccine. Polio vaccine's fine. The Boss Trump
laid down the marker. We're not touching the polio vaccine.
This was a frenzy over the last few days.
Speaker 9 (22:58):
This was totally put to.
Speaker 11 (22:59):
Bed today, So that's number one. Number Two, if I
were in their shoes, I would just simply say everything
we do is going to be based on science and
evidenced based decision making, because that's all anybody really wants
to hear. And if I were further advising RFK and
Donald Trump on vaccines or anything else, I would say
I'd like for science to go back to be science,
because during COVID and during the last few years, science
(23:22):
became religion. You know, when we're putting people up on
pedestals and making prayer candles with their image on it
and sewing pillows with their face on it. That's no
longer science. That became a religion. So if I were
in their shoes, I would say science is going to rule.
Evidence based decision making is going to rule, and that's
how we're going to make all our decisions.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
So how did we end up here? Whenever you tell
your kids, whenever your kids figure out that you don't
have a good reason for your ruling, and you just say,
because we've all done enough, done it because I said so.
(24:03):
You know, when you're on shaky ground, you don't want
to have to explain. Trust the science, trust the expert,
don't question us. Sorry, we will never ever allow that mystery.
(24:28):
I'm a very happy fifty eighth birthday to our friend
Tracy Burke. We grew up ten minutes apart. Our dad's
worked together at DuPont and he's just super, super wonderful
human being. I thought I would this segment share Sometimes
(24:48):
I come across wisdom from people who I respect their success,
and for this segment it'll be Steve Jobs and Saban.
This next clip, you know, I don't. I'm sorry that
Nick Saban. For those from my my Louisiana friends, I'm
(25:13):
sorry that he left and you didn't get to win
more championships because he's that great. And Les Miles won
a championship with his team. But less Miles and Matt
had Or wasn't that good a coach. I loved Orcheron.
I absolutely love Orcheron. I don't think he was a
systems guy or a long term program guy. But that
(25:34):
was a magical year. It really was a special year
in college football. But whatever you may think of Alabama,
if you're at Auburn, if you're if he beat your teams.
Leaving college football aside, Nick Saban is an individual who
(25:55):
is a winner at what he focuses on winning. I
don't think you'd want to grow up his kid. I
think he'd be a tough dad. I think he'd be
a tough husband to have. I think he'd be a
tough boss to have. But I will also say this,
I think that he brought a lot of focus on
(26:17):
the fundamentals of winning. Everybody would like to win, and
some people understand. Some people are able to parse out
what is and isn't important and figure out how to win.
So this is one of many quotes I've heard from
him that I really like.
Speaker 7 (26:34):
It's a human condition to be average. It's not to
be as good as you can be, you know, it's
a human condition to survive. Just get along, be average.
It's why when a kid makes an A on the midterm,
he misses two weeks of class or doesn't go or
try thinking if I get a C on the next test,
I still have a B average. Lots of people think
(26:56):
that way.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
That's normal.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
So when you get one that comes out for football
and he thinks that way, don't think he's got something
wrong with him. He's normal. What we do to get
him to play hard, to play tough all the time,
to give effort to it's special. It's special to get
somebody to be the best that they can be, to
understand the work ethic and how important it is to
earn it, and you reap what you show.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
And just remember this mediocrity, the average, the normal. Those
people don't realize that they're not driven to excellence. They're
not going to find the cure for cancer. They're going
to be a government worker, and they are going to
attack the people. You heard what he said. Mediocrity does
(27:45):
not like exceptionalism, and exceptionalism doesn't like mediocrity. Just remember
everybody tearing down Donald Trump or Elon Musk, everybody tearing
down highly successful people. Part of that is an excuse
for their own failures. I came across a Steve Jobs
quote that is probably as responsible for it any of
(28:10):
the success I've had in life and the people who
I know who have had in life, and I thought
I would share it with you. This was recorded pretty
early in his career.
Speaker 12 (28:20):
I've never found anybody that didn't want to help me
if I asked him for help. I called up Bill
Hewlett when I was twelve years old and he lived
in Palo Alto. His number was still in the phone book,
and he answered the phone himself.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Yes, he said, Hi, I'm Steve Jobs.
Speaker 12 (28:33):
I'm twelve years old. I'm a student in high school
and I want to build a frequency counter. And I
was wondering if you had any spare parts I could have,
And he laughed, and he gave me the spare parts
to build this frequency counter. And he gave me a
job that summer in Hewlett Packard, working on the assembly
line putting nuts and bolts together on frequency counters. He
got me a job in the place that built him.
(28:53):
And I've never found anyone who said no or hung
up the phone when I called.
Speaker 10 (28:59):
I just ask.
Speaker 12 (29:00):
Most people never pick up the phone call. Most people
never ask, and that's what separates sometimes the people that
do things from the people that just dream about them.
You got to you got to act, and you've got
to be willing to.
Speaker 10 (29:14):
Fail.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
I study highly successful, self made people, and one of
the things that comes up again and again and again,
whether it's the oil patch wildcatters, John Moores at BMC
TILM and Fertita with hospitality, and then casinos, on and
(29:40):
on and on, is I was just dumb enough to
believe I could succeed at that. In many ways, the
worst curse you can have on your career is to
do well in school and to get a good job,
(30:02):
because it's very hard to leave a good job, very
hard to leave a good job. The best and boldest
thing I ever did was working for a downtown law firm.
My dream. If I stayed past seven o'clock, I got
limoed home at night and limoed back in. I was
twenty five years old. I felt like a king dinner
(30:26):
would be brought in for me. Because I was making
a lot of money for the law firm, working very
long hours weekends. The whole thing to walk away from
that and start my own business out of a little
shack we were living in. It had a little add
on room to the outside of it that was probably unpermitted,
and it was on a slope, and it had anoleum floor,
(30:48):
and it was terrible. And I had a phone which
was a brother printer fax machine and phone all in one.
And I started my business at a little card table
desk in there. I'm not woe as me. I don't
know why I was dumb enough to do that. Maybe
(31:09):
because my wife was willing to support me chasing my dream.
Maybe because I watched my dad work for forty years
for DuPont and hate every single bit of it, and
I saw how it kills you slowly but surely. I
don't know, kind of a death of a salesman sort
of thing. But I don't know why. Maybe because I
(31:31):
always got good feedback from teachers and parents and coaches
and siblings and friends. But I was never afraid to
try anything, to ask people for help, to ask people
for a meeting, to ask people for advice, ask people
to make a connection, to ask people to get me
in here or refer me over here. Best advice you
(31:54):
can get a couple times a week I'll get an
email from a mom who says, hey, can you help
my son do that? Assist to this, and my response
is simple, I know I sound like an ass No,
have your son contact me, Have your son reach out
to me, and I will connect your son. Mama can't
get the job because mama can't do the job. Incourt
(32:15):
my kids. Michael is much more shocked. Crockett's more outgoing.
But if we have to, if we go to a restaurant,
one of them has to go in and get the table.
One of them has to They have to speak to
my friends when they come over. Eat your kids. This
it's important.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
Gentlemen, held Us has left for killing me.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
Thank you, and good night.
It's that time time, time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
President Trump announcing more lawsuits for election interference. Let me
tell you something, those people have been allowed to run
them up for too long. If you just turn the
other cheek and hope they don't continue to do it,
(00:54):
you are asking for trouble. The only thing they understand
is being being broken. The only thing they understand is
being bankrupted. What Hulk Hogan did Vice magazine. People say
what they want, but it made every person at every
(01:14):
magazine stop and think before they go off half cocked
saying stupid stuff. After that, here's President Trump talking about
the fact, Hey, I'm not done with the reckoning. They're
gonna be there's gonna be accountability here.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
I'm going to be bringing one against the people in Iowa.
Their newspaper which had a very very good polster who
got me right all the time, and then just before
the election she said I was going to lose by
three or four points. That it became the biggest story
all over the world because I was gonna win Iowa
by twenty points. The farmers loved me, and I love
(01:50):
the farmers, and it was interesting the way she did it.
She brought it down two weeks before. She said I
was going to only win by four. That was a
big story. But that was good because so she brought
it down from like twenty two points to four or whatever.
The number was way up, way up, easy, when we
never even thought to go there. I respect him, I
love him, and they understand there's no reason to go
(02:12):
there because she brought it from way up walk away,
which it was, and it turned out to be in
the election too, by the way, it was a win
by many, many points. And then she brought it down
very smartly to four a couple of weeks before, and
everyone said, wow, that's amazing, he's only up by four points.
Then she brought it down to where I was down
by three or four whatever number she used, and that
(02:36):
was the Des Moines register and it was their parent
and in my opinion, it was fraud and it was
election interference. You know, she's gotten me right always. She's
a very good polster. She knows what she was doing.
And she then quit before and we'll probably be filing
a major lawsuit against them today or tomorrow. We're filing
(02:56):
one on sixty minutes, you know, about that where they
took com his answer, which was a crazy answer, a
horrible answer, and they took the whole answer out and
they replaced it with something else. She said later on.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
A selection interference, you cannot do that. The press in
this country has a lot of protections that a private
citizen does not, but with those protections come certain responsibilities
as to how you wield that weapon, and when they
do so outside the standard of care, there is liability,
(03:34):
and he's going to prove it and he's going to
expose it. There's a woman named Kelly Robinson who is
the president of the Human Rights League, one of those organizations,
and she was being questioned by Senator Ted Cruz at
a Senate hearing and she would not answer a very
simple question about women's sports. We've wasted so much time
(03:58):
and energy in this country arguing with these people who
want to send grown men into girls' locker rooms, who
want grown men to compete against girls in sports and
hurt them, against grown men who want to claim that
they're women and take the positions that women used to have.
(04:20):
And Ted Cruz absolutely exposes the ridiculousness of this kind
of mindset with a very simple question. This is how
you do.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
It, trying to get a yes or no. I'm not
trying to get a speech.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
Oh.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
Is there a difference between women and men?
Speaker 5 (04:41):
I think that there are definitions for biological sex.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
So you're not asked. Friends, let me ask you this question. Then,
why do women's sports exist? If you can't define a
difference between women and men, why not abolish women's sports
and just tell little girls to swim with little boys
and see who wins.
Speaker 6 (04:57):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
I'm simply saying that.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
That secks my question. Why do leave? Why do women?
Speaker 5 (05:03):
It's a great value, I mean, senator, I'll take.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
You, Miss Robinson, please answer the question. I'm asking you
absolutely why do women's sports exist?
Speaker 5 (05:10):
I think that there are so many positive benefits to sports.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
But why have a secard back category for women? If
there's no difference between women and men, why to have
women's sports.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
I'm saying that there's a difference between sex and gender,
and that the NCAA has rules in place which they
have for.
Speaker 4 (05:25):
The last decade. Pairman, I would like to enter the record.
An article from Duke Law called comparing athletic performances for
the best elite women to boys and men and it
goes through examining. In twenty seventeen, the top records for
women in the world in various track and field events. So,
for example, in the one hundred meter the top record
for women in the world was ten point seventy one seconds.
(05:48):
Now that record for the number one women in the
world in twenty seventeen was in the year twenty seventeen
broken by one hundred and twenty four boys under eighteen.
In that same year, the record for the number one
competing woman in the hundred yard one hundred meter dash
in the world was broken by a total of two
(06:09):
four hundred and seventy four men.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Did you hear that you have women's sports because women
should only have to compete against other people endowed as
they are, built as they are. The moment the left
created an argument as to whether men and women are
(06:34):
actually different, that is the decline of our country. I
read yesterday about a Department of Justice expenditure for a
study that was commissioned for some non binary woman who
(06:54):
tries to dress like a man, looks like David Bowie,
and she who calls herself He was doing research trying
to normalize what she calls or he calls or whatever
this thing calls minor attracted persons. That's a pedophile, an
(07:17):
adult that wants to have sex with a child. Language
is power, orwell was very clear. When you can change
what a word means, change that word, then you can
(07:38):
suck the power from it and redefine it. You can
win arguments without ever stating a case. Minor attracted person
is a euphemism for mostly men who want to have
sex with little girls and little boys. That the vast
(08:00):
majority of it is that, and that gets back into
these people who are sexually dysfunctional. Are these people who
are fantasizing about their childhood? That's statutory rape. And we
can never ever allow anyone Our government is paying for
this crap.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
What champ?
Speaker 6 (08:23):
Allow me to introduce myself.
Speaker 7 (08:25):
My name is Mitchen Michael Erry genius.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
We've been so serious today. Let's have a good laugh,
shall we. What will Kamala Harris do now that she
has disgraced herself, her party, her abusive husband, Joe Biden,
her campaign, Well, you think she'd run hot under a rock?
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Right?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Impure? Shame they spent over a billion dollars trying to
get you elected. You were handed the campaign not only
did you squander it, you made a mockery of Democrat donors.
Everything you did was cringe. So you go home to
(09:20):
California and you run for governor. CNN with the report.
Speaker 8 (09:27):
Tell us what the likelihood is of Harris running for governor.
What she's been saying to people over the last couple
of weeks, donors, other supporters that she's been I've been
talking with, is you haven't seen the last of me.
I'm not going quietly into the night. Advisors people close
to are debating about what that means. They do not
want her final official act ever to be essentially certifying
(09:48):
Donald Trump's win over her, especially four years after January sixth,
and so they look at this governor's race in California
in twenty twenty six and it seems to them.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Like a layup.
Speaker 8 (09:59):
Essentially, she would probably clear the field or mostly clear
the field, and she would get to be governor of California.
It's a pretty good job, right, It was good enough
for Ronald brag And, Ernold Schwarzenegger, Jerry Brown. But if
she does that, that means that she couldn't turn around
and run for president again in twenty twenty eight right.
She'd need to essentially declare right away, and that is
what it really comes down to, because there are people
(10:22):
close to her who say she didn't get a fair
shot this year. It wasn't up to what she could
have done, and look how well she performed. Anyway, she
should get to go again in twenty twenty eight. And
then there are ones who say, look with where things
are with Democratic Party, she would not have a clear field,
a cleared field rather in the Democratic primer and could
(10:45):
lose the nomination and to come off of twenty twenty
four into that would be really terrible.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
In my career, I started professionally as a lawyer at
a large law firm. I left from them and got
into real estate development brokerage. I from there went into
being a city councilman for the fourth largest city in America, Houston,
(11:14):
and rose to be the mayor pro tem. I ran
for mayor and didn't win. No Republican ever has it's
a Democrat city. I went from there to running radio
stations and doing a show, to the show getting picked
up by other markets before it was syndicated, and stepping
(11:35):
down from running the stations to focus on the show.
Now that it had grown. In the meantime, I started
an internet company. I've been involved behind the scenes with
a number of campaigns, and I've invested in real estate
and other ventures. And I have remarked of the various
(12:02):
fields in my career which are disparate, I've never seen
anything like radio. Because there will be a station manager
in Des Moines, Iowa who will be from Pensacola, Florida,
and then got promoted to go to Atlanta, and then
(12:24):
went from there to Boise, and then from there to
a small town in Arizona and then moves over to
Des Moines. And they might be single, or they might
be dragging a wife with them. It's always men, and
you go, why do you keep moving cities? Because they
(12:47):
want to be in radio, because they love radio so much.
They cannot imagine doing anything other than radio. There's nothing
else that turns their gears. There are things that pay better,
there are things with fewer hours and less stress, there
are things with more job security. But radio people are
(13:13):
radio people. They don't leave radio to go into other industries.
They've been a radio person since they were hanging around
the station as a teenager. Many of them started as
a teenager in a small station in a small town.
They worked overnight. Ramon worked overnights, very common in the
(13:35):
business to work the worst shifts on the worst station,
to holidays, all of it, Christmas, Thanksgiving, hurricanes. Thank you, Remama.
I got this one by myself, but I appreciate you. Yeah,
after twenty six years, I think you've got PTSD. But
(13:55):
I say all that to say this. There's something about
radio that radio people is a drug and nothing else
satisfies them. But government was not supposed to be that way.
Government was supposed to be public service. So what is
(14:18):
it about government that Kamala Harris can't let it go?
If she was at the top of her game, with contacts,
with a legal background, with a political background, she could
she could work with an investment fund, she could serve
(14:40):
on the board of directors of companies if she was
at the top of her game. But she's a dumb
dumb There is something to the power that these people
can't let go. Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden. It was never
meant to be a career. And it's not that these
(15:04):
people have a heart for service. You know, you see
a preacher who will preach their ministry is the entirety
of their lives. They'll drag their poor wife and kids
from church to church to church. You see these people
that have a real ministry for helping people, and they'll
(15:26):
get moved. The Catholic Church will.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
Move people all over the world to serve.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
You see missionaries who do that, and they will move
anywhere anytime because that. But Kamala Harris going back to
run for governor is because of the graft and corruption
and there's nothing else for her and that's not what
government was supposed to be.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Michael Berry's show.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Don't Give Up to You and Drink from the silver
cover moments. This Bill maher is a is an interesting
cat because he's a classical old white liberal who thinks
(16:17):
he's really smart, but he's not dumb, but he's too
clever by half. And he's a kind of guy who's
kind of resentful of white males who are successful. And
that's I think he probably got picked on for being
a little guy and not being able to throw a
(16:38):
ball or run fast or talk to girls when he
was younger, and it created a bitterness in him. But
even he the Democrat Party has been so bad of
late that even he has come out and made some statements.
He gave a fifty six seconds. So let's say a
(16:58):
one minute recitation of what went wrong with the Democrats
and how.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Bad off.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
They are. And let's be clear, it's not just their
elected officials and their consultants and their operatives. It really
is the culture of the cat ladies. It really is
the culture. You can see them at the grocery store,
the person with the purple hair, the T shirts with
(17:28):
the cuss words on them. It's often fat, ugly women
who are angry at everybody. They're usually painfully single. It's
people who are unhappy with the sex they were born into,
so they kind of want to make themselves interesting, so
they decided they're the opposite sex.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Weird.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
They're never happy with how they make a living, they're
never happy in their relationships, and so what they do
is they lash out like a main dog at everybody
and everything. And what happens is they get so disconnected
from it. They become so unmoored, like a ship out
(18:11):
at sea, untethered to any real values, that they end
up hating everyone and everything. And this is how they
end up taking up really crazy positions. Whatever makes you angry.
That's what they're for anyway. Bill maher in one minute
kind of captures it.
Speaker 9 (18:33):
You wear queers for Palestine t shirts and masks two
years after the pandemic ended, and you can't define woman,
I mean person who menstruates. You're the Teachers' Union education Party,
and you've turned schools and colleges into a joke. But
a shocker that the people who see everything through the
lens of race and sex see their election loss as
(18:55):
a result of racism and sexism. Kamala has spent one
hundred days telling I know it feels like crime and
a legal immigration are bad, but feelings. Look at this
chart you've seen in this house. We believe lawn sign
see it says right on it. We believe in science, right,
which is why you demanded no one even debate whether
(19:16):
COVID could have escaped from the one lab in the
one city where they were studying it. How far fetched.
Democrats have become like a royal family that, because of
so much incest, has unfortunately had children who are retarded.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
He mentioned the Party of Science. RFK Junior said something
we've been screaming from the rooftops here for years and
a lot of others, many of you as well. Trust
the experts is not a tenet of science. The scientific
method requires that whatever is established must always be questioned.
(19:56):
You don't have sadducees who sit on high and can't
be questioned. People who are self appointed experts and no
one can dare challenge them because they are the expert
or hiding something. This is how you end up with
bad results. We shouldn't need to trust the experts. We
(20:20):
should be able to question things. That's how you question everything,
that's how you get the best results.
Speaker 6 (20:29):
This phrase trust the experts, it's not a thing. It
certainly is not a feature of democracy. It's not a
feature of science and science you don't trust the experts never. Oh,
I've sued five I've had over five hundred cases, and
(20:50):
in each one of them there were scientific controversy and
there was experts on both sides. When I assume mon Santo,
Monsanto came in with experts from Stanford, Harvard and Yale.
My wife, who's an actor, came to court that day
on the last day in their testimony. She watched these
(21:11):
people and then afterwards, and they're so convincing. She walked
out and she said, why are you even troubling these
this poor company to me? And I would like wait
till tomorrow. The next day we had our experts from Harvard, Stanford,
and Yale, and the jury gave us two point two
billion dollars. They had heard both of them and they
(21:34):
had to decide which expert is lying. And experts have
their own prejuice, they are their own biases and their
own ambitions, et cetera. And so it's not you know,
trusting the experts is not a feature of science. It's
not a feature of democracy. It's a feature of religion
and totalitarianism. But it's not something we do.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Very well. Said Scott Jennings, who had a phenomenal year
as the Voice of Reason on CNN, said something that
I think is just perfect. Science needs to go back
to being science and not some religion. This worshiping Fauci
(22:19):
and worshiping that the experts, this is nonsense. It's got
to stop.
Speaker 10 (22:26):
So we're not here talking about COVID vaccines, right, We're
talking about measles, measles months and rubella. Trump is now
all of a sudden saying that he doesn't think that
that necessarily should be a part of when you send
your kids to school and you're hoping that everybody around
them is vaccinated adequately for these old illnesses that could
kill them.
Speaker 11 (22:46):
I think there's a number of things going on today.
Number One, RFK hit the right note on Capitol Hill
on the polio vaccine. Polio vaccine's fine. The Boss Trump
laid down the marker. We're not touching the polio vaccine.
This was a frenzy over the last few days.
Speaker 9 (22:58):
This was totally put to.
Speaker 11 (22:59):
Bed today, So that's number one. Number Two, if I
were in their shoes, I would just simply say everything
we do is going to be based on science and
evidenced based decision making, because that's all anybody really wants
to hear. And if I were further advising RFK and
Donald Trump on vaccines or anything else, I would say
I'd like for science to go back to be science,
because during COVID and during the last few years, science
(23:22):
became religion. You know, when we're putting people up on
pedestals and making prayer candles with their image on it
and sewing pillows with their face on it. That's no
longer science. That became a religion. So if I were
in their shoes, I would say science is going to rule.
Evidence based decision making is going to rule, and that's
how we're going to make all our decisions.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
So how did we end up here? Whenever you tell
your kids, whenever your kids figure out that you don't
have a good reason for your ruling, and you just say,
because we've all done enough, done it because I said so.
(24:03):
You know, when you're on shaky ground, you don't want
to have to explain. Trust the science, trust the expert,
don't question us. Sorry, we will never ever allow that mystery.
(24:28):
I'm a very happy fifty eighth birthday to our friend
Tracy Burke. We grew up ten minutes apart. Our dad's
worked together at DuPont and he's just super, super wonderful
human being. I thought I would this segment share Sometimes
(24:48):
I come across wisdom from people who I respect their success,
and for this segment it'll be Steve Jobs and Saban.
This next clip, you know, I don't. I'm sorry that
Nick Saban. For those from my my Louisiana friends, I'm
(25:13):
sorry that he left and you didn't get to win
more championships because he's that great. And Les Miles won
a championship with his team. But less Miles and Matt
had Or wasn't that good a coach. I loved Orcheron.
I absolutely love Orcheron. I don't think he was a
systems guy or a long term program guy. But that
(25:34):
was a magical year. It really was a special year
in college football. But whatever you may think of Alabama,
if you're at Auburn, if you're if he beat your teams.
Leaving college football aside, Nick Saban is an individual who
(25:55):
is a winner at what he focuses on winning. I
don't think you'd want to grow up his kid. I
think he'd be a tough dad. I think he'd be
a tough husband to have. I think he'd be a
tough boss to have. But I will also say this,
I think that he brought a lot of focus on
(26:17):
the fundamentals of winning. Everybody would like to win, and
some people understand. Some people are able to parse out
what is and isn't important and figure out how to win.
So this is one of many quotes I've heard from
him that I really like.
Speaker 7 (26:34):
It's a human condition to be average. It's not to
be as good as you can be, you know, it's
a human condition to survive. Just get along, be average.
It's why when a kid makes an A on the midterm,
he misses two weeks of class or doesn't go or
try thinking if I get a C on the next test,
I still have a B average. Lots of people think
(26:56):
that way.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
That's normal.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
So when you get one that comes out for football
and he thinks that way, don't think he's got something
wrong with him. He's normal. What we do to get
him to play hard, to play tough all the time,
to give effort to it's special. It's special to get
somebody to be the best that they can be, to
understand the work ethic and how important it is to
earn it, and you reap what you show.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
And just remember this mediocrity, the average, the normal. Those
people don't realize that they're not driven to excellence. They're
not going to find the cure for cancer. They're going
to be a government worker, and they are going to
attack the people. You heard what he said. Mediocrity does
(27:45):
not like exceptionalism, and exceptionalism doesn't like mediocrity. Just remember
everybody tearing down Donald Trump or Elon Musk, everybody tearing
down highly successful people. Part of that is an excuse
for their own failures. I came across a Steve Jobs
quote that is probably as responsible for it any of
(28:10):
the success I've had in life and the people who
I know who have had in life, and I thought
I would share it with you. This was recorded pretty
early in his career.
Speaker 12 (28:20):
I've never found anybody that didn't want to help me
if I asked him for help. I called up Bill
Hewlett when I was twelve years old and he lived
in Palo Alto. His number was still in the phone book,
and he answered the phone himself.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Yes, he said, Hi, I'm Steve Jobs.
Speaker 12 (28:33):
I'm twelve years old. I'm a student in high school
and I want to build a frequency counter. And I
was wondering if you had any spare parts I could have,
And he laughed, and he gave me the spare parts
to build this frequency counter. And he gave me a
job that summer in Hewlett Packard, working on the assembly
line putting nuts and bolts together on frequency counters. He
got me a job in the place that built him.
(28:53):
And I've never found anyone who said no or hung
up the phone when I called.
Speaker 10 (28:59):
I just ask.
Speaker 12 (29:00):
Most people never pick up the phone call. Most people
never ask, and that's what separates sometimes the people that
do things from the people that just dream about them.
You got to you got to act, and you've got
to be willing to.
Speaker 10 (29:14):
Fail.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
I study highly successful, self made people, and one of
the things that comes up again and again and again,
whether it's the oil patch wildcatters, John Moores at BMC
TILM and Fertita with hospitality, and then casinos, on and
(29:40):
on and on, is I was just dumb enough to
believe I could succeed at that. In many ways, the
worst curse you can have on your career is to
do well in school and to get a good job,
(30:02):
because it's very hard to leave a good job, very
hard to leave a good job. The best and boldest
thing I ever did was working for a downtown law firm.
My dream. If I stayed past seven o'clock, I got
limoed home at night and limoed back in. I was
twenty five years old. I felt like a king dinner
(30:26):
would be brought in for me. Because I was making
a lot of money for the law firm, working very
long hours weekends. The whole thing to walk away from
that and start my own business out of a little
shack we were living in. It had a little add
on room to the outside of it that was probably unpermitted,
and it was on a slope, and it had anoleum floor,
(30:48):
and it was terrible. And I had a phone which
was a brother printer fax machine and phone all in one.
And I started my business at a little card table
desk in there. I'm not woe as me. I don't
know why I was dumb enough to do that. Maybe
(31:09):
because my wife was willing to support me chasing my dream.
Maybe because I watched my dad work for forty years
for DuPont and hate every single bit of it, and
I saw how it kills you slowly but surely. I
don't know, kind of a death of a salesman sort
of thing. But I don't know why. Maybe because I
(31:31):
always got good feedback from teachers and parents and coaches
and siblings and friends. But I was never afraid to
try anything, to ask people for help, to ask people
for a meeting, to ask people for advice, ask people
to make a connection, to ask people to get me
in here or refer me over here. Best advice you
(31:54):
can get a couple times a week I'll get an
email from a mom who says, hey, can you help
my son do that? Assist to this, and my response
is simple, I know I sound like an ass No,
have your son contact me, Have your son reach out
to me, and I will connect your son. Mama can't
get the job because mama can't do the job. Incourt
(32:15):
my kids. Michael is much more shocked. Crockett's more outgoing.
But if we have to, if we go to a restaurant,
one of them has to go in and get the table.
One of them has to They have to speak to
my friends when they come over. Eat your kids. This
it's important.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
Gentlemen, held Us has left for killing me.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
Thank you, and good night.
