Speaker 1 (00:02):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Verie Show is on the air. One of the
(00:38):
most beautiful things that happened yesterday was not in any
way politically. Harry Underwood, who has been criticized by other
artists for supporting President Trump, was asked to sing and
(00:59):
the musical accompaniment would not work. You know, it's amazing,
My wife said, imagine that. You have to figure they
had the best audio visual equipment money could buy and
it still doesn't work. I owned a concert venue for
(01:19):
almost ten years, and I'm gonna tell you something. You
spend more on audio visual equipment and you can imagine,
but no matter how much you spend, it's going to
go down when you need it most. I've got a
show sponsor in Houston called Ccspresentationsystems dot Com. It's a
husband wife team. They have designers, installers, the whole thing.
(01:43):
But what they use to separate themselves from anyone else
is you can buy equipment from lots of people, but
we're going to be there to service it when you
need it most. It's sort of like having an air
conditioning company on standby, because your AC only goes down
(02:03):
when you most need it, or you're plumbing only backs
up when you're having a party, right and done. How
it always works. So the audio visual system, the sound
system goes down. Can you imagine how mortified the owner
(02:23):
of that system had to be because they got the
contract for the inauguration. They've told everybody back home. They
told their buddies at the golf club. Yep, we're doing
the audio visual for the inauguration. Oh man, that's awesome.
You have tickets. Tickets. I'm going to be right there.
(02:47):
Somebody's going to make sure all this stuff works. I'm
going to be like I'm out on the field, but
of the inauguration. It's gonna be the greatest thing ever.
So everyone's waiting, being quiet, and Carrie Underwood is waiting
to start singing, and she mouths, I can just sing
(03:08):
it acapella. You about to do this acapella right here,
right now. If you haven't seen the video, just go
look it up Carrie Underwood Inauguration. You'll see it for yourself.
It was such a moment of such class and dignity.
And you know what, a lot of listeners emailed me.
(03:30):
I receive emails from our website. Michael Berryshow dot Com.
A lot of listeners emailed me and said, you know,
she didn't try to change the words, she didn't try
to over sing it. She invited everyone to sing along
with her, which was an incredible sign of humility. Riley
(03:52):
Leonard that Notre Dame did not win the National Championship,
but when he scored his touchdown, he showed his inst
of doing a dance or celebration, he showed his wristband
on his right wrist. He has a risk band, that
says Matthew twenty three twelve. And I went and looked
up why Riley Leonard displays that when he scores or
(04:17):
does something great instead of doing a dance or anything else.
Matthew twenty three twelve, which he says is his favorite verse, says,
whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself
will be exalted. It's a pretty deep verse to choose
(04:40):
for a kid in the National Championship. Whoever exalts himself
will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exhausted. Exalted, sorry,
not exhausted. Carrie Underwood had an opportunity to show off
her incredible pipes or to wait and demand that they
(05:03):
fix it because she's a diva and she's not going
to sing until the music goes along. You know, Ramon's
got a program that he and Jim use our creative
director that can take any song in history and strip
out the music and you can just hear the vocals.
And there's never been a case where I've heard a
(05:25):
song other than maybe Freddie Mercury, where I didn't think, Wow,
they don't sound nearly as good a cappella. When you
strip out that music that gives you the pay sing
and the texture and thickens the sound, they don't sound
nearly as good as you thought they did. Otherwise, well,
she knows all. And here's Carrie Underwood at that moment.
(05:47):
She said, look, this is awkward for everybody. I'll just
sing it. I don't mind. But she doesn't just sing it.
She then says, y'all know the words, sing along with me,
and they did. And my wife said, of everything today,
that moved me the most, that was beautiful. What a moment,
(06:10):
What a spirit you felt? Here's that moment.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
OOOHI ful for sacious guys, for a boo wave of
grat for perple Mountain man just sees Hbo the fruit.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Oncaca. Gosh, he's the race. The round language.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Proceeds shine.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
President Trump called yesterday Liberation Day, liberation from so much,
not just the government. There has been a pall cast
on our people for too long. Liberation from cancel culture,
Liberation from bullies, liberation from protesters, liberation from invaders, liberation
(07:42):
from bad laws, stupidity, liberation from Debbie Downer from Karen,
Liberation from all of it. It just feels like our
people are ready for a reemergence, to be proud again,
(08:02):
to be excellent again, to aspire and strive and love
and share and unify. And when I say unify, I
don't think everybody wants to unify, but those who do will,
those who are proud will stand tall. It's a great time.
(08:22):
Allow me to introduce myself.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
My name is Victor Michael Berry.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Genius living in Texas. As I do. I am abundantly
aware of the importance of energy to our economy. Tulsa, Oklahoma,
kind of important there too, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama. But when
(08:49):
you read about, say, World War two, and you see
the importance of how that war was fought, and how
different it could have been Russia's involvement and their ability
to weaken Germany. You know, there's several ways to say
(09:09):
this that Americans bled, but Russians died. We did lose
a lot in that war, but you cannot underestimate the
importance of the Russians in the Eastern Front. Hitler would
have never invaded Russia when he did but for his
desperate need of their oil. If he had all the
(09:32):
oil he needed, he would have finished off the United
Kingdom before beginning an eastward expansion, and that turns out
to be his biggest mistake. The Japanese had been cut
off from fuel reserves because they don't have their own
on their little island or series of islands archipelago. Energy
(09:54):
is everything. You look at how much blood and treasure
we have spilled in Iraq and over the Middle East,
much of it related to the oil powers, and when
you consider how important energy is to our national security
(10:15):
and to world security, it's incredible. So why would the
Democrats want to harness and handcuff our energy production? Well,
partly because they're funded by the Chinese who want to
weaken our economy visa v their own. You know you
(10:35):
can't as a Democrat tell me that Trump is controlled
by Putin when Trump's entire goal is to strengthen American
energy production, which works to the disadvantage of Putin because
Putin fills the coffers the energy reserves of nations like
Germany because we cut them off and Joe Biden did that.
(11:00):
Leashing American energy is increasing America's national security, not to
mention America's wealth. Every one of you that has at
a minimum of four oh one K has investments in
energy companies, and the stability and security of those energy
(11:20):
companies is a big part of your insured retirement. So
I take this executive order right here with a lot
of pride.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
But this one that's unleashing American energy serve relates to
using permitting processes and other regulatory systems to ensure that
we can produce energy efficiently to drive the American economy forward.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Anybody remember the Keystone pipeline. You know how many jobs
were lost over that. And by the way, the refining
capacity is in Louisiana. That could have lit the Louisiana
economy on fire. There is so much production capability in
(12:03):
Louisiana going unused or underused. There is the capacity to
refine more oil and the type of oil that we
and the Canadians use that you could pull people into
jobs and create generational wealth. I don't mean private jet money,
(12:24):
but I mean security, fiscal security, opportunity. When the British
petroleum explosion occurred, I announced that I wanted to be
the first person to broadcast from an offshore platform. And
(12:47):
Billy Nungesser, who at the time was the president of
Plackhaman Parish, reached out to our show as we were
on in Louisiana and he said, I'll get you out
on the platfor him. I'll get you everything you need
to make it happen. Because Blackhamun Parish was dying and
Billy had made money with a catering company catering for
(13:09):
oilfo services over the years, and so on his own dime,
I flew out of Homer and flew out into to
an offshore platform that was operated ironically by a company
from Houston called Hercules, which I don't believe is still
in business, but their stock signal was Hero, so I
(13:30):
thought was cool. And Hercules brought me out there and
I got to interview the guys working on the platform,
and I'll never forget this guy. There was a guy
named will Longer and I start talking to him and
he's got his hands are black, his face is black.
(13:51):
It's hard work, and it looked like he come out
of a coal mine, had a thick beard, and I
don't believe will had graduated high school, but I was
told he was the hardest working guy on the platform
and a reddish hair, looked kind of like Seamus in
Brave Heart. The guy that was William Wallas's buddy, and
his teeth needed to be repaired, and he looked like
(14:15):
a guy that was raised up rough. And he was
telling me about this job where he made something like
four times as much as it is last job. I said, Oh,
what was your last job? He said, I was the
general manager of a taco bell. And I said, well,
how long have you been at this job? He said
(14:36):
three months? Have you been promoted? No, My entry level
pay for twenty one days off, twenty one days on
on an oil fell platform is four times what I
was making as the general manager of a taco bell,
where we'd get robbed, theft and all the things that
(15:00):
go with that. And I said, well, yeah, but you're
out here for three weeks on. He said, yeah, but
then I get three weeks off. I had very long.
I had to open and close the taco bell. My
point is there was a good paying job. What kind
of difference does that make? He got tears in his
eyes as he told me that his daughters went to
private school, a private Catholic school in his little town.
(15:24):
He said, if you'd have told me that I would
ever be able to afford to send my kids to
a private school where they get a first rate education,
look at me. I'm filthy. I work with my hands.
I didn't graduate high school, and my kids go to
private Catholic school. And he literally started weeping as he
told the store. Of course I did too. Yeah, that's
(15:48):
what it means to unleash American energy. What's this one?
Speaker 4 (15:53):
That's unleashing American energy?
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Sir?
Speaker 4 (15:56):
Relates to using permitting processes and other regulatory systems to
ensure that we can produce energy efficiently to drive the
American economy forward.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
This is the Michael Berry Show in California. It's mostly
Democrats that live there. Well, it's a real sickness and
cult that you will allow your community to burn to
the ground before demanding that the government do its job.
(16:29):
You know why pride goeth before a fall. It's not
about how stupid Karen Bass is or what a weasly
little slimy you know what that Gavin Newsom is. It's
(16:49):
that they don't want to have to admit they were wrong,
not to you, not to the people they argued with
and called nasty names. When they called you a racist
and said you don't like women and lesbians and retarded
people and everything else, and you said, no, I just
want the government to work, and that they don't want
(17:11):
to have to admit they were wrong. President Trump signed
an executive order opening Alaska for oil exploration. It's called
the on war ANWR. I think it stands for Alaskan
National Wildlife Reserve. That's not end, it's close enough. We
(17:33):
are a resource rich nation and we should be exploiting
those resources for the good of our people, our workers,
our national security. But we've got nut jobs in this
country that chain themselves to trees because they don't want
us to have nice things. And if you start digging
(17:55):
into it, those people are never poor. Their daddy have
to time as a rich oilman. Do you know what
al Gore? Do you know what his father did for
a living? He was a United States Senator for Tennessee.
He ran for president in fifty six and lost. Didn't
help that he ran against EST's key faver, John F. Kennedy.
(18:20):
They ended up with a compromise candidate at the convention
named Adlai Stevenson, which was also the compromise candidate in
fifty two. But another subject. Al Gore Senior decided that
he had enough clout from his years in government that
now he wanted to cash in. So he went to
(18:43):
work for a man named armand Hammer. Armand Hammer was
a guy who was despised the way the leftates hates
Elon Musk. Armand Hammer was hated an armand Hammer had
coal industries. Heavily regulated coal coal enterprises. And what armen
(19:10):
Hammer needed was somebody who could get the government to
give him concessions that they didn't give to others. Tell
me about oligarks again, this is how you get rich
in Russia. Putin tells you you can have a concession
to drill for oil, to mine for coal, but nobody
(19:33):
else can. That's how al Gore's daddy got rich. So
it's real cute that now al Gore is lecturing the
rest of us when he went to Harvard and has
his entire political career paid for by his daddy's wealth.
Probably still many millions dollars, many millions of dollars left
in there. We need to exploit our natural resources for
(19:59):
the good of our people, and that's what Donald Trump
is trying to unleash. Here's the executive order opening Alaska
for oil exploration.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
First we have Alaska, sir, this is an executive order
relating to unleashing Alaska's potential as an energy reservoir.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
For the entire nations.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Do what about as any woman? I believe that would
be included in the aspects of the order opening up
that order. One of the myths and lies that the
left tells you is that the regulations government imposes on
industry are designed to protect you.
Speaker 6 (20:34):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Yes, you can't go outside if you're not vaccinated with
the clot shot because we have to protect everybody else.
Turned out, the clot shot didn't protect anything. It was
a way to control you. It was a way to
bend you to their will and make you take the
clot shot. That they insisted everyone take, which is why
(20:57):
President Trump understanding that many of those regulations do not
protect anybody. A lot of times, they're barriers to entry
to keep one company in control of an industry and
keep other countries companies from getting into it, which of
course drives up price and controls industries. You want to
(21:18):
know what's fascism, that's fascism. Here's the executive order to
freeze the regulatory environment till they can get control of
what's going on.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
The second item, President Trump, is a regulatory freeze, as
you announced in your speech. Preventing bureaucrafts from issuing any
more regulations until we have full control of the government
is disadministration.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
He knows good and well that they did a lot
of things in the run up to him taking office,
so he's saying, hey, hey, hey, knock it off, pause
everything till we get control of these things. So I
know what y'all are up to. He also signed an
executive order for a hiring freeze on all federal hiring
because guess what, we're not hiring anymore lefties. The next item, Sir.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
Is a freeze on all federal hiring excepting the military
and the number of other excluded categories. Again, until full
control of the government is achieved and we understand the
objectives of government f forward.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Could you imagine Biden doing this.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
I don't think so. I don't think so. We need
private sector hiring, not more government hiring. DC's growing faster
and bigger than anywhere in the country. That's fascism and
that's what Trump's putting a stop to. The next one
(22:53):
is five to eleven President Trump pulling us back out
of the Paris Climate Treaty. By the way, folks, you
do not want to be a part of this nonsense.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
The next item here is the withdrawal from the Paris
Climate Treaty. So let's say, yes, sir.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Tillion, you're going to save over We're.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
Going to save over a trillion dollars by withdrawing from that.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Treaty, a treaty that China eagerly supports. But if you
look at the top countries that are polluting, it is
China and India. If you look at the twenty five
biggest polluting sites in the world, something like twenty three
(23:51):
of them are China, followed by India. What you're doing
is not a pimple on the butt a pollution in
the world. The Chinese are spending a fortune on the
American left, the media, the liberals, the universities, spies to
get us to shut down our production of fossil fuels
(24:14):
and energy so that they'll be in a better position
visa vi us. Trump is stopping the Michael Berry the Bears,
noting that Ron De Santis has stepped forward and made
(24:36):
very clear that Florida wants to walk hand in hand
with the Trump Administration's agenda and enforce these initiatives at
the state level. Some me clip number ten ramon, this
is what Texas Governor Greg Abbott is not doing. But
(24:57):
Florida's governor, the best governor in the country, Ronda Santa
just is here. He is outlining his plan to assist
with President Trump's mass deportation plan, calling a special session.
Let's get to it.
Speaker 7 (25:10):
He says, given how many people came in under Biden,
if the President and the Trump administration does not have
support from state and local governments across the country, the
policy is not going to be optimally effective.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
It's just the reality.
Speaker 7 (25:27):
And so we in Florida have an opportunity yet again
to lead and to say We want to be there
every step of the way as the new president works
to end this crisis once and for all. Our state
officials will work with the federal government to combat illegal immigration.
Our local officials now look someone like Grady and Wayne,
they want to help because they understand the effects of
(25:49):
illegal immigration. But not everyone necessarily wants to do that,
and every city in Florida. But we're going to say,
not only can Younot be a sanctuary city of obligation
to step up and help.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
And here's the thing.
Speaker 7 (26:04):
You can't just say, like someone's here illegally, wait till
they commit like a serious felony before you deport. If
you have gangs like the Venezuelan gangs are running rough
shot around the country, we have some in Florida too,
you should just be able to identify them. They're here illegally,
get them, turn them over to Ice, and send them
back to their home.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
Country where they belong.
Speaker 7 (26:25):
And we need to do this swiftly, and we need
to do this overwhelmingly. Now, some people say, well, you know,
you can just kind of wait and we'll get around
to it, and maybe we'll say no, we have a
sense of urgency in the State of Florida. We have
to come in right on the heels of the new
president getting sworn into office, and we need to enact
(26:45):
strong policies that are going to help this administration accomplish
the mission that the American people spoke loudly and clearly
about in November.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
And I've talked with.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
The President about these issues at Lane. We've been working
with people on his team because they're going to be
very bold. But the President himself told me, he said,
you know, inflation was an issue, he' said, but I
got elected because of the immigration issue and the border,
and I'm going to solve it. And he is very
very intent on getting the job done for the American peoples.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
You want to know what solving it means. Means they're
going to call you a racist and a Nazi. They're
going to tell you an awful person. They're going to
point to all of these victims, these victims, they are
all victims. It's a story from CBS San Diego. It's
another one of these sob stories about illegals with open
border activists claiming more deaths because of Trump. You know,
(27:40):
if you if you close the door to illegal immigrants
coming in they're just going to find other ways to
come in illegally and they're gonna die doing it. Well,
maybe they shouldn't come in, huh, CBS San Diego.
Speaker 5 (27:55):
This app has helped nearly a million people cross into
the US legal, but the shutdown will affect thousands of
migrants trying to cross through the San Diego border, and
the news has left some in tears. Migrants at the
border breaking down seeing their appointments canceled. Minutes after President
(28:15):
Trump was sworn into office. This Colombian migrant saying, may
President Trump have compassion and let us cross after six
months of suffering. Her appointment was set for the same
day the app went dark. Every day, up to one thousand,
four hundred and fifty migrants would line up at eight
(28:36):
border crossings waiting for their appointment to legally cross into
the US on immigration parole. The appointments were made through
the Customs and Border Protection One app. Most migrants would
wait months to get on the list, but as of
midday Monday, no more appointments will be scheduled and tens
of thousands of existing ones have been canceled.
Speaker 3 (28:57):
I predict that more people will be injured and likely
will lose their lives as a result of this.
Speaker 8 (29:02):
Pedro Rios with the American Friends Service Committee says the
CBP one app was the only way to get an
appointment to legally cross the border.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Custostanmporder Protection has worked with its Mexican counterparts to not
permit people to arrive at a port of entry and
seek asylum.
Speaker 8 (29:19):
The intention of the app, initiated by former President Biden,
was to prevent illegal crossings, Whereo says removing the app
could encourage dangerous behavior.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
It means that many might seek to enter the US
through extremely dangerous ways, such as the mountain, deserts and
the ocean.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
Wait, wait, hold on, hold on, So if we don't
allow illegal aliens, if we don't bring them in and
give them a phone and give them a paycheck and
find housing and kick other kick veterans out of there,
If we don't these illegal aliens who come here demanding
all this free stuff, if we don't give it to them,
(30:01):
then they're still gonna come, but now they're going to
endanger themselves. Is that supposed to make me want to
help them? Because it doesn't. It doesn't. I'm tempted to
quote the line of the Great Tom Mabe when he
called Ice about illegal aliens on the roof.
Speaker 6 (30:23):
That freak immigration. Hey, uh, I got I got seven
illegal aliens trapped on my neighbor's house right now. They're
gone no shape, but they were. They were up there
stilling his shingles and I I'll swipe the ladder. I
(30:45):
got on the trap. If they're y'all want y'all come
get them.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
You got people trapped on a roof. Yeah, let me
ask you something.
Speaker 6 (30:53):
Is it like a like a reward or something? That
lock that front door locked the illegal aliens out there?
Back up for a second. You've got a colony, seven
people trapped on top of a house. So their ladder, Yeah,
there was eight. One shot me down to dream pipe
and I thought he was coming to get me. And
that's how I took off running put the ladder and
(31:14):
he took off run the other way though, And uh yeah,
lots of door. Danny, hold up, I know that they
are illegal aliens.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
Uh do it?
Speaker 1 (31:24):
Come again?
Speaker 6 (31:25):
How do you know that they're illegal aliens? Sheela told
me Sheila chasing my neighbor teenage daughter she had she
made straight age last year. She's a yeah, Hey, it's
starting to rain, y'all gonna, y'all gonna come get them.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
It's a it's coming.
Speaker 6 (31:40):
Down pretty bad. If what you're telling me is that
you're detaining what you believe her seven illegal ages.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
R Yes, sir, you can't do that.
Speaker 6 (31:49):
Pulled them against their will? Do what you can't hold
them against their will? By the hell not the borders
more like a dance state line. And you're just sitting there.
I got them caught. All you got this is I
got them up their track. You God, you gotta come
get them.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
It doesn't matter.
Speaker 6 (32:06):
You don't have the authority. Well, I mean it's it's raining.
I mean you need to. You need to just come
get them because this is it's raining pretty bad. If
I were you, I would go put the ladder back
up and let them get down. Okay, I'll go put
the freaking ladder back up and getting them up on
the roof, well.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Okay, I just go.
Speaker 6 (32:24):
I'll go put get them down with rave their asses
off with the American flag, and we'll give them lighting
shirts and helping shirt and woo stamps and what not.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
And meanwhile, mama.
Speaker 6 (32:34):
Can't afford a prescription medicine. It's just if you just
give me an address, I can notify the authorities and
let them and no, no, no no, I just I
got this. I got the same thing for your time.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
I got it, Tom, maybe M A B E dot com. Oh,
my absolute favorites
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Everything henman Alas has left between name, Thank you and
good nightsh
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Verie Show is on the air. One of the
(00:38):
most beautiful things that happened yesterday was not in any
way politically. Harry Underwood, who has been criticized by other
artists for supporting President Trump, was asked to sing and
(00:59):
the musical accompaniment would not work. You know, it's amazing,
My wife said, imagine that. You have to figure they
had the best audio visual equipment money could buy and
it still doesn't work. I owned a concert venue for
(01:19):
almost ten years, and I'm gonna tell you something. You
spend more on audio visual equipment and you can imagine,
but no matter how much you spend, it's going to
go down when you need it most. I've got a
show sponsor in Houston called Ccspresentationsystems dot Com. It's a
husband wife team. They have designers, installers, the whole thing.
(01:43):
But what they use to separate themselves from anyone else
is you can buy equipment from lots of people, but
we're going to be there to service it when you
need it most. It's sort of like having an air
conditioning company on standby, because your AC only goes down
(02:03):
when you most need it, or you're plumbing only backs
up when you're having a party, right and done. How
it always works. So the audio visual system, the sound
system goes down. Can you imagine how mortified the owner
(02:23):
of that system had to be because they got the
contract for the inauguration. They've told everybody back home. They
told their buddies at the golf club. Yep, we're doing
the audio visual for the inauguration. Oh man, that's awesome.
You have tickets. Tickets. I'm going to be right there.
(02:47):
Somebody's going to make sure all this stuff works. I'm
going to be like I'm out on the field, but
of the inauguration. It's gonna be the greatest thing ever.
So everyone's waiting, being quiet, and Carrie Underwood is waiting
to start singing, and she mouths, I can just sing
(03:08):
it acapella. You about to do this acapella right here,
right now. If you haven't seen the video, just go
look it up Carrie Underwood Inauguration. You'll see it for yourself.
It was such a moment of such class and dignity.
And you know what, a lot of listeners emailed me.
(03:30):
I receive emails from our website. Michael Berryshow dot Com.
A lot of listeners emailed me and said, you know,
she didn't try to change the words, she didn't try
to over sing it. She invited everyone to sing along
with her, which was an incredible sign of humility. Riley
(03:52):
Leonard that Notre Dame did not win the National Championship,
but when he scored his touchdown, he showed his inst
of doing a dance or celebration, he showed his wristband
on his right wrist. He has a risk band, that
says Matthew twenty three twelve. And I went and looked
up why Riley Leonard displays that when he scores or
(04:17):
does something great instead of doing a dance or anything else.
Matthew twenty three twelve, which he says is his favorite verse, says,
whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself
will be exalted. It's a pretty deep verse to choose
(04:40):
for a kid in the National Championship. Whoever exalts himself
will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exhausted. Exalted, sorry,
not exhausted. Carrie Underwood had an opportunity to show off
her incredible pipes or to wait and demand that they
(05:03):
fix it because she's a diva and she's not going
to sing until the music goes along. You know, Ramon's
got a program that he and Jim use our creative
director that can take any song in history and strip
out the music and you can just hear the vocals.
And there's never been a case where I've heard a
(05:25):
song other than maybe Freddie Mercury, where I didn't think, Wow,
they don't sound nearly as good a cappella. When you
strip out that music that gives you the pay sing
and the texture and thickens the sound, they don't sound
nearly as good as you thought they did. Otherwise, well,
she knows all. And here's Carrie Underwood at that moment.
(05:47):
She said, look, this is awkward for everybody. I'll just
sing it. I don't mind. But she doesn't just sing it.
She then says, y'all know the words, sing along with me,
and they did. And my wife said, of everything today,
that moved me the most, that was beautiful. What a moment,
(06:10):
What a spirit you felt? Here's that moment.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
OOOHI ful for sacious guys, for a boo wave of
grat for perple Mountain man just sees Hbo the fruit.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Oncaca. Gosh, he's the race. The round language.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Proceeds shine.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
President Trump called yesterday Liberation Day, liberation from so much,
not just the government. There has been a pall cast
on our people for too long. Liberation from cancel culture,
Liberation from bullies, liberation from protesters, liberation from invaders, liberation
(07:42):
from bad laws, stupidity, liberation from Debbie Downer from Karen,
Liberation from all of it. It just feels like our
people are ready for a reemergence, to be proud again,
(08:02):
to be excellent again, to aspire and strive and love
and share and unify. And when I say unify, I
don't think everybody wants to unify, but those who do will,
those who are proud will stand tall. It's a great time.
(08:22):
Allow me to introduce myself.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
My name is Victor Michael Berry.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Genius living in Texas. As I do. I am abundantly
aware of the importance of energy to our economy. Tulsa, Oklahoma,
kind of important there too, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama. But when
(08:49):
you read about, say, World War two, and you see
the importance of how that war was fought, and how
different it could have been Russia's involvement and their ability
to weaken Germany. You know, there's several ways to say
(09:09):
this that Americans bled, but Russians died. We did lose
a lot in that war, but you cannot underestimate the
importance of the Russians in the Eastern Front. Hitler would
have never invaded Russia when he did but for his
desperate need of their oil. If he had all the
(09:32):
oil he needed, he would have finished off the United
Kingdom before beginning an eastward expansion, and that turns out
to be his biggest mistake. The Japanese had been cut
off from fuel reserves because they don't have their own
on their little island or series of islands archipelago. Energy
(09:54):
is everything. You look at how much blood and treasure
we have spilled in Iraq and over the Middle East,
much of it related to the oil powers, and when
you consider how important energy is to our national security
(10:15):
and to world security, it's incredible. So why would the
Democrats want to harness and handcuff our energy production? Well,
partly because they're funded by the Chinese who want to
weaken our economy visa v their own. You know you
(10:35):
can't as a Democrat tell me that Trump is controlled
by Putin when Trump's entire goal is to strengthen American
energy production, which works to the disadvantage of Putin because
Putin fills the coffers the energy reserves of nations like
Germany because we cut them off and Joe Biden did that.
(11:00):
Leashing American energy is increasing America's national security, not to
mention America's wealth. Every one of you that has at
a minimum of four oh one K has investments in
energy companies, and the stability and security of those energy
(11:20):
companies is a big part of your insured retirement. So
I take this executive order right here with a lot
of pride.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
But this one that's unleashing American energy serve relates to
using permitting processes and other regulatory systems to ensure that
we can produce energy efficiently to drive the American economy forward.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Anybody remember the Keystone pipeline. You know how many jobs
were lost over that. And by the way, the refining
capacity is in Louisiana. That could have lit the Louisiana
economy on fire. There is so much production capability in
(12:03):
Louisiana going unused or underused. There is the capacity to
refine more oil and the type of oil that we
and the Canadians use that you could pull people into
jobs and create generational wealth. I don't mean private jet money,
(12:24):
but I mean security, fiscal security, opportunity. When the British
petroleum explosion occurred, I announced that I wanted to be
the first person to broadcast from an offshore platform. And
(12:47):
Billy Nungesser, who at the time was the president of
Plackhaman Parish, reached out to our show as we were
on in Louisiana and he said, I'll get you out
on the platfor him. I'll get you everything you need
to make it happen. Because Blackhamun Parish was dying and
Billy had made money with a catering company catering for
(13:09):
oilfo services over the years, and so on his own dime,
I flew out of Homer and flew out into to
an offshore platform that was operated ironically by a company
from Houston called Hercules, which I don't believe is still
in business, but their stock signal was Hero, so I
(13:30):
thought was cool. And Hercules brought me out there and
I got to interview the guys working on the platform,
and I'll never forget this guy. There was a guy
named will Longer and I start talking to him and
he's got his hands are black, his face is black.
(13:51):
It's hard work, and it looked like he come out
of a coal mine, had a thick beard, and I
don't believe will had graduated high school, but I was
told he was the hardest working guy on the platform
and a reddish hair, looked kind of like Seamus in
Brave Heart. The guy that was William Wallas's buddy, and
his teeth needed to be repaired, and he looked like
(14:15):
a guy that was raised up rough. And he was
telling me about this job where he made something like
four times as much as it is last job. I said, Oh,
what was your last job? He said, I was the
general manager of a taco bell. And I said, well,
how long have you been at this job? He said
(14:36):
three months? Have you been promoted? No, My entry level
pay for twenty one days off, twenty one days on
on an oil fell platform is four times what I
was making as the general manager of a taco bell,
where we'd get robbed, theft and all the things that
(15:00):
go with that. And I said, well, yeah, but you're
out here for three weeks on. He said, yeah, but
then I get three weeks off. I had very long.
I had to open and close the taco bell. My
point is there was a good paying job. What kind
of difference does that make? He got tears in his
eyes as he told me that his daughters went to
private school, a private Catholic school in his little town.
(15:24):
He said, if you'd have told me that I would
ever be able to afford to send my kids to
a private school where they get a first rate education,
look at me. I'm filthy. I work with my hands.
I didn't graduate high school, and my kids go to
private Catholic school. And he literally started weeping as he
told the store. Of course I did too. Yeah, that's
(15:48):
what it means to unleash American energy. What's this one?
Speaker 4 (15:53):
That's unleashing American energy?
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Sir?
Speaker 4 (15:56):
Relates to using permitting processes and other regulatory systems to
ensure that we can produce energy efficiently to drive the
American economy forward.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
This is the Michael Berry Show in California. It's mostly
Democrats that live there. Well, it's a real sickness and
cult that you will allow your community to burn to
the ground before demanding that the government do its job.
(16:29):
You know why pride goeth before a fall. It's not
about how stupid Karen Bass is or what a weasly
little slimy you know what that Gavin Newsom is. It's
(16:49):
that they don't want to have to admit they were wrong,
not to you, not to the people they argued with
and called nasty names. When they called you a racist
and said you don't like women and lesbians and retarded
people and everything else, and you said, no, I just
want the government to work, and that they don't want
(17:11):
to have to admit they were wrong. President Trump signed
an executive order opening Alaska for oil exploration. It's called
the on war ANWR. I think it stands for Alaskan
National Wildlife Reserve. That's not end, it's close enough. We
(17:33):
are a resource rich nation and we should be exploiting
those resources for the good of our people, our workers,
our national security. But we've got nut jobs in this
country that chain themselves to trees because they don't want
us to have nice things. And if you start digging
(17:55):
into it, those people are never poor. Their daddy have
to time as a rich oilman. Do you know what
al Gore? Do you know what his father did for
a living? He was a United States Senator for Tennessee.
He ran for president in fifty six and lost. Didn't
help that he ran against EST's key faver, John F. Kennedy.
(18:20):
They ended up with a compromise candidate at the convention
named Adlai Stevenson, which was also the compromise candidate in
fifty two. But another subject. Al Gore Senior decided that
he had enough clout from his years in government that
now he wanted to cash in. So he went to
(18:43):
work for a man named armand Hammer. Armand Hammer was
a guy who was despised the way the leftates hates
Elon Musk. Armand Hammer was hated an armand Hammer had
coal industries. Heavily regulated coal coal enterprises. And what armen
(19:10):
Hammer needed was somebody who could get the government to
give him concessions that they didn't give to others. Tell
me about oligarks again, this is how you get rich
in Russia. Putin tells you you can have a concession
to drill for oil, to mine for coal, but nobody
(19:33):
else can. That's how al Gore's daddy got rich. So
it's real cute that now al Gore is lecturing the
rest of us when he went to Harvard and has
his entire political career paid for by his daddy's wealth.
Probably still many millions dollars, many millions of dollars left
in there. We need to exploit our natural resources for
(19:59):
the good of our people, and that's what Donald Trump
is trying to unleash. Here's the executive order opening Alaska
for oil exploration.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
First we have Alaska, sir, this is an executive order
relating to unleashing Alaska's potential as an energy reservoir.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
For the entire nations.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Do what about as any woman? I believe that would
be included in the aspects of the order opening up
that order. One of the myths and lies that the
left tells you is that the regulations government imposes on
industry are designed to protect you.
Speaker 6 (20:34):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Yes, you can't go outside if you're not vaccinated with
the clot shot because we have to protect everybody else.
Turned out, the clot shot didn't protect anything. It was
a way to control you. It was a way to
bend you to their will and make you take the
clot shot. That they insisted everyone take, which is why
(20:57):
President Trump understanding that many of those regulations do not
protect anybody. A lot of times, they're barriers to entry
to keep one company in control of an industry and
keep other countries companies from getting into it, which of
course drives up price and controls industries. You want to
(21:18):
know what's fascism, that's fascism. Here's the executive order to
freeze the regulatory environment till they can get control of
what's going on.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
The second item, President Trump, is a regulatory freeze, as
you announced in your speech. Preventing bureaucrafts from issuing any
more regulations until we have full control of the government
is disadministration.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
He knows good and well that they did a lot
of things in the run up to him taking office,
so he's saying, hey, hey, hey, knock it off, pause
everything till we get control of these things. So I
know what y'all are up to. He also signed an
executive order for a hiring freeze on all federal hiring
because guess what, we're not hiring anymore lefties. The next item, Sir.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
Is a freeze on all federal hiring excepting the military
and the number of other excluded categories. Again, until full
control of the government is achieved and we understand the
objectives of government f forward.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Could you imagine Biden doing this.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
I don't think so. I don't think so. We need
private sector hiring, not more government hiring. DC's growing faster
and bigger than anywhere in the country. That's fascism and
that's what Trump's putting a stop to. The next one
(22:53):
is five to eleven President Trump pulling us back out
of the Paris Climate Treaty. By the way, folks, you
do not want to be a part of this nonsense.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
The next item here is the withdrawal from the Paris
Climate Treaty. So let's say, yes, sir.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Tillion, you're going to save over We're.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
Going to save over a trillion dollars by withdrawing from that.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Treaty, a treaty that China eagerly supports. But if you
look at the top countries that are polluting, it is
China and India. If you look at the twenty five
biggest polluting sites in the world, something like twenty three
(23:51):
of them are China, followed by India. What you're doing
is not a pimple on the butt a pollution in
the world. The Chinese are spending a fortune on the
American left, the media, the liberals, the universities, spies to
get us to shut down our production of fossil fuels
(24:14):
and energy so that they'll be in a better position
visa vi us. Trump is stopping the Michael Berry the Bears,
noting that Ron De Santis has stepped forward and made
(24:36):
very clear that Florida wants to walk hand in hand
with the Trump Administration's agenda and enforce these initiatives at
the state level. Some me clip number ten ramon, this
is what Texas Governor Greg Abbott is not doing. But
(24:57):
Florida's governor, the best governor in the country, Ronda Santa
just is here. He is outlining his plan to assist
with President Trump's mass deportation plan, calling a special session.
Let's get to it.
Speaker 7 (25:10):
He says, given how many people came in under Biden,
if the President and the Trump administration does not have
support from state and local governments across the country, the
policy is not going to be optimally effective.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
It's just the reality.
Speaker 7 (25:27):
And so we in Florida have an opportunity yet again
to lead and to say We want to be there
every step of the way as the new president works
to end this crisis once and for all. Our state
officials will work with the federal government to combat illegal immigration.
Our local officials now look someone like Grady and Wayne,
they want to help because they understand the effects of
(25:49):
illegal immigration. But not everyone necessarily wants to do that,
and every city in Florida. But we're going to say,
not only can Younot be a sanctuary city of obligation
to step up and help.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
And here's the thing.
Speaker 7 (26:04):
You can't just say, like someone's here illegally, wait till
they commit like a serious felony before you deport. If
you have gangs like the Venezuelan gangs are running rough
shot around the country, we have some in Florida too,
you should just be able to identify them. They're here illegally,
get them, turn them over to Ice, and send them
back to their home.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
Country where they belong.
Speaker 7 (26:25):
And we need to do this swiftly, and we need
to do this overwhelmingly. Now, some people say, well, you know,
you can just kind of wait and we'll get around
to it, and maybe we'll say no, we have a
sense of urgency in the State of Florida. We have
to come in right on the heels of the new
president getting sworn into office, and we need to enact
(26:45):
strong policies that are going to help this administration accomplish
the mission that the American people spoke loudly and clearly
about in November.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
And I've talked with.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
The President about these issues at Lane. We've been working
with people on his team because they're going to be
very bold. But the President himself told me, he said,
you know, inflation was an issue, he' said, but I
got elected because of the immigration issue and the border,
and I'm going to solve it. And he is very
very intent on getting the job done for the American peoples.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
You want to know what solving it means. Means they're
going to call you a racist and a Nazi. They're
going to tell you an awful person. They're going to
point to all of these victims, these victims, they are
all victims. It's a story from CBS San Diego. It's
another one of these sob stories about illegals with open
border activists claiming more deaths because of Trump. You know,
(27:40):
if you if you close the door to illegal immigrants
coming in they're just going to find other ways to
come in illegally and they're gonna die doing it. Well,
maybe they shouldn't come in, huh, CBS San Diego.
Speaker 5 (27:55):
This app has helped nearly a million people cross into
the US legal, but the shutdown will affect thousands of
migrants trying to cross through the San Diego border, and
the news has left some in tears. Migrants at the
border breaking down seeing their appointments canceled. Minutes after President
(28:15):
Trump was sworn into office. This Colombian migrant saying, may
President Trump have compassion and let us cross after six
months of suffering. Her appointment was set for the same
day the app went dark. Every day, up to one thousand,
four hundred and fifty migrants would line up at eight
(28:36):
border crossings waiting for their appointment to legally cross into
the US on immigration parole. The appointments were made through
the Customs and Border Protection One app. Most migrants would
wait months to get on the list, but as of
midday Monday, no more appointments will be scheduled and tens
of thousands of existing ones have been canceled.
Speaker 3 (28:57):
I predict that more people will be injured and likely
will lose their lives as a result of this.
Speaker 8 (29:02):
Pedro Rios with the American Friends Service Committee says the
CBP one app was the only way to get an
appointment to legally cross the border.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Custostanmporder Protection has worked with its Mexican counterparts to not
permit people to arrive at a port of entry and
seek asylum.
Speaker 8 (29:19):
The intention of the app, initiated by former President Biden,
was to prevent illegal crossings, Whereo says removing the app
could encourage dangerous behavior.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
It means that many might seek to enter the US
through extremely dangerous ways, such as the mountain, deserts and
the ocean.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
Wait, wait, hold on, hold on, So if we don't
allow illegal aliens, if we don't bring them in and
give them a phone and give them a paycheck and
find housing and kick other kick veterans out of there,
If we don't these illegal aliens who come here demanding
all this free stuff, if we don't give it to them,
(30:01):
then they're still gonna come, but now they're going to
endanger themselves. Is that supposed to make me want to
help them? Because it doesn't. It doesn't. I'm tempted to
quote the line of the Great Tom Mabe when he
called Ice about illegal aliens on the roof.
Speaker 6 (30:23):
That freak immigration. Hey, uh, I got I got seven
illegal aliens trapped on my neighbor's house right now. They're
gone no shape, but they were. They were up there
stilling his shingles and I I'll swipe the ladder. I
(30:45):
got on the trap. If they're y'all want y'all come
get them.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
You got people trapped on a roof. Yeah, let me
ask you something.
Speaker 6 (30:53):
Is it like a like a reward or something? That
lock that front door locked the illegal aliens out there?
Back up for a second. You've got a colony, seven
people trapped on top of a house. So their ladder, Yeah,
there was eight. One shot me down to dream pipe
and I thought he was coming to get me. And
that's how I took off running put the ladder and
(31:14):
he took off run the other way though, And uh yeah,
lots of door. Danny, hold up, I know that they
are illegal aliens.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
Uh do it?
Speaker 1 (31:24):
Come again?
Speaker 6 (31:25):
How do you know that they're illegal aliens? Sheela told
me Sheila chasing my neighbor teenage daughter she had she
made straight age last year. She's a yeah, Hey, it's
starting to rain, y'all gonna, y'all gonna come get them.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
It's a it's coming.
Speaker 6 (31:40):
Down pretty bad. If what you're telling me is that
you're detaining what you believe her seven illegal ages.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
R Yes, sir, you can't do that.
Speaker 6 (31:49):
Pulled them against their will? Do what you can't hold
them against their will? By the hell not the borders
more like a dance state line. And you're just sitting there.
I got them caught. All you got this is I
got them up their track. You God, you gotta come
get them.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
It doesn't matter.
Speaker 6 (32:06):
You don't have the authority. Well, I mean it's it's raining.
I mean you need to. You need to just come
get them because this is it's raining pretty bad. If
I were you, I would go put the ladder back
up and let them get down. Okay, I'll go put
the freaking ladder back up and getting them up on
the roof, well.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Okay, I just go.
Speaker 6 (32:24):
I'll go put get them down with rave their asses
off with the American flag, and we'll give them lighting
shirts and helping shirt and woo stamps and what not.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
And meanwhile, mama.
Speaker 6 (32:34):
Can't afford a prescription medicine. It's just if you just
give me an address, I can notify the authorities and
let them and no, no, no no, I just I
got this. I got the same thing for your time.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
