Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time time time, there's luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Michael Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
For so many years there was this sort of defeatist attitude.
America's on a crash course with disaster. The spending was
out of control, and nobody knew how to fix it.
And then Trump comes in and he brings his group
and they show, yeah, we can turn this thing around.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
You just have to do it.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
And that is the moment, that aha moment, that just
earth shattering moment where you realize all these people who've
been running for office and holding office, they never intended
to solve the problem. This could have been done before,
nobody wanted to do it, and all of a sudden,
(01:11):
they're doing it. We've talked about terminating the Department of
Education since Carter implemented it during his term in the
late seventies. Reagan talked about it. Bush talked about it,
the next Bush talked about it. They've all talked about it.
Trump's doing it, and now we have this just delicious
(01:35):
irony or delicious moment where the left is losing their
mind because government is their power source, it's their money,
it's their power, it's their jobs, it's their control. If
you shrink the government, you shrink their power base. It's
(01:56):
like the Wicked Witch and the Wizard of Oz when
the water hits her and she just drivels away. They
know this. They will fight for their governmental jobs, money, contracts,
all of it, because this is their very survival. And
a lot of people don't understand that. This is not
(02:16):
about whether we need a Department of education. That's not
the point. This is about why they have to have
all government. Government needs to keep growing, expanding more money.
And Trump knows that this is what is sinking our nation.
So he says, look, I'm ending it. We're done. We'll
(02:39):
give that off to other departments it can handle it
more efficiently, and we'll eliminate a bunch of their functions.
Education should be at the most local level, at the
household level to start with, not in the federal government.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Imagine that. How ridiculous is that.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
So the left is now trying to figure out, hey,
what does Department of Education do? Because whatever they do,
but let's claim that with that out that the kids
will die. What do they actually do because nobody really knows.
They just suck up a bunch of money. So here
we are the big news. What will we do without
the Department of Education?
Speaker 4 (03:17):
This just in.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Americans across the country are panicking, clutching their common core
workbooks and sobbing into their student loan statements, all because
President Trump started dismantling the Department of Education. Reports are
coming in of grown adults, mostly ones who haven't been
inside of public school since the Bush administration, screaming.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Things like, but how will we teach kids what gender
they are?
Speaker 1 (03:41):
And who will funnel billions into programs with zero measurable success?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Trust the process? Trust the process.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Experts also known as career bureaucrats who have never taught
a day in their lives warrant that without the Department
of Education, we risk a future where kids might actually
learn things like read, writing, and thinking critically.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
I mean, what if states start making their own decisions?
What if parents come involved?
Speaker 1 (04:10):
What if what if kids weren't just test taking robots
prepared for a lifetime of debt and dependence Todd Yes,
the Department of Education, responsible for decades of declining test scores,
skyrocketing costs, and redefining success as we didn't set the
building on fire, is finally facing its report card and
(04:30):
spoiler alert, it's not on the out roll.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Defund it.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
So say goodbye to the eighty billion dollar bureaucracy that
accomplished less than your cousin's homeschooled kid with a library
card and a YouTube account. And remember, without the Department
of Education, children just might start learning again.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Sometimes too hot, Ye, I have insurance, and often it
is ghost complexion.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I think she's speaking in tons.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
This has been a public disservice announcement.
Speaker 6 (04:59):
Your well, America, move the American Embassy in Israel, begin
the shutdown with the Department of Education.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
What about bringing back American manufacturing? Remember when Barack Obama
laughed at the idea that President Trump could bring manufacturing
back to the United States, Remember this flashback moment to
PBS News Hour.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
And so what we have to do is to make
sure that folks are trained for the job that are
coming in now, because some of those jobs of the
past are just not going to come back. And when
somebody says, like the person you just mentioned, who I'm
not going to advertise for, that he's going to bring
(05:50):
all these jobs back, well, how exactly.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Are you going to do that?
Speaker 4 (05:53):
What are you going to do? There's no answer to it,
He just says, well, I'm going to I'm going to
negotiate a better deal. How exactly are you going to
negotiate that? What magic wand do you have? And usually
the answer is he doesn't have an answer.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Clearly he does.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
President Trump waived his magic wand and brought a new
five billion dollars steel mill to Louisiana.
Speaker 7 (06:22):
Today, we're delighted to report that Hyundai is announcing a
major five point eight billion dollar investment in American manufacturing.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
In particular, Hyundai.
Speaker 7 (06:32):
We'll be building a brand new steel plant in Louisiana
which will produce more than two point seven million metric
tons of steal a year, creating more than fourteen hundred
jobs for American steel workers, and then there'll be major
expansion after that. This will be Hyundai's first ever steel
mill in the United States, one of the largest companies
in the world by the way, supplying steel for souto
(06:55):
parts and auto plants and Alabama and Georgia.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
White House Press Secretary Carol and Levitt was on Fox
News where she gave some more details on this deal.
Speaker 8 (07:04):
Tariff's work and President Trump is proving that every single
day when new companies from around the world are pledging
to invest billions of dollars in the United States of
America in our workforce. Today we had Hyundai announcing fifty
twenty billion dollars an American investment, five billion dollars in
(07:25):
the great state of Louisiana to build a steel plant.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Why.
Speaker 8 (07:29):
Because President Trump has implemented a twenty five percent tariff
on steal and he has told companies around the world
that America is open for business and you won't face
any tariffs. If you bring your production to the United States,
you will have low taxes, low energy costs, and you
will have the best workforce.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
In the world.
Speaker 8 (07:47):
You will hire American workers. And so every single one
of these investments, the American people need to understand, this
is more money coming into your community. This is your
hometown where you grew up that has been shuttered because
globalists have sold you out, reviving again factories where your
neighbors are having good paying jobs, where more money is
(08:07):
going back into your pockets. And every time you go
to the store to purchase a product, you're no longer
seeing made in China on the back, you are seeing
maide in America on the back. That's President Trump's vision
with these tariffs, and every day he is proving that
they work, and he is making America wealthy.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
A guest Live, Laugh, Learn doing it Big on The
Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
I love.
Speaker 9 (08:32):
I mean.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Talk about Schodenfreud. I love watching the left trip and fall.
It's hilarious to me, watching them desperate, watching them making
stupid arguments and realizing, do you you understand how stupid
you sound? Because I live in as Rush Limbaugh used
(08:58):
to say, as the mayor of Realville, I live in Realville.
These people have no understanding. I remember I think one
one was with The New York Times a few years
ago and she said, I don't even know anyone who
owns a truck. I know almost only people who own
a truck.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
It is, it is.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
It's really interesting the two Americas, the coastal elites who
are so responsible for supposedly being influencers, and then the
people back home who look at them going. You know,
they do their best to hide how different they are
from real Americans, but then they say stupid things like
(09:44):
Stephen Colin, CNN political reporter, who made this argument.
Speaker 10 (09:48):
Yeah, I think what's going to end up happening potentially
is that unbolcumented migrants and largely obay the law are
going to stop filing tax returns. And that's going to
cause not just chaos and the government won't know where
everybody is. It's going to cost billions of dollars in revenue.
And there seems to be some inconsistency between the presence
(10:09):
arguments that we're going off to murderers and rapists and
people who have been taken out of thousands, and.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
We're going to talk about that later this hour.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
There's this kind of push into everyone who has a
legal status, legal status. So what will we do if
we take all the murderers and sex traffickers and drug
traffickers that are killing us and rapists and trende urrahwa
if we take them off the streets.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Who will pay their taxes?
Speaker 3 (10:44):
New York Governor Kathy Hokeel told David Parkman that her
state will not be cooperating with the federal government with ICE,
and that any of the counties in her state.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Who do will be considered rogue counties.
Speaker 11 (11:00):
We're not going to allow this mass deportation where we
will cooperate. And I did this even under the Biden administration,
if you have a warrant, or you know someone's on
a terrorism watch list or committing crimes in their home country,
committing crimes here, that's a different category, and I will
help you with those to protect everyone, whether the newly
arriving New Yorkers or whether they've lived here their entire lives.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
So that's real clear to me. But don't bleed.
Speaker 11 (11:26):
Over into going to schools and sensitive places. So our
state policy, our state law does not allow for our
state police to be involved in those situations. Now, what
we have are some renegade counties in New York because
individual counties can sign a pact with ICE, and we
have a lot of them, some on Long Island, some
in Upstate New York where there's different political views. They
(11:50):
are cooperating with their local police departments. But what I
control is the state police, and they will not cooperate
in that.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
So you will not cooperate with the federal government. An
oath you took, you will.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
Not cooperate, You will violate the law in your official capacity.
President Trump has no alternative than to prosecute these people.
He has no alternative than to rain down hell upon them.
And Trump reminds me in many ways of the dog
(12:28):
being introduced to the dog park where all the dogs
are gathered around the water or whatever. He understands that
you have to go in and show them.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Who you are. It's like the first day at prison.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
You've sometimes got to fight when you didn't want to
keep from having to fight all the time. Trump has
got to make an example out of her, and I
fully expect as defiant as she's being that he will
Another example former Democrat Missouri Senator Claire mccaskell. She was
the chairman of the Barack Obama reelection campaign in twenty twelve.
(13:08):
She would have no longer been a senator in swing
state Missouri if it had not been for that bloviating
Karl Rove.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
A little flashback.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Todd Aiken, a doctor, was running for the Senate against
Claire mccaskell, who was running for reelection. Aiken was leading
in the polls and he made a statement as a
doctor about legitimate rape claims and legitimate rape as it
(13:41):
relates to pro life versus abortion, and the left immediately said,
there can be no rape claim that's not legitimate. Well,
we know that there can. You could refer to a
legitimate racial attack. And then you could look to the
(14:04):
case in Allentown of the woman who's on the school
board and is a city employee who put a noose
on her own desk and claimed that that had been
left there to show that she's going to be hanged,
when in fact we know that that was a hoax.
But the Left, as they did with this story with
(14:27):
the bombing of Yemen, they create fear and people are
so afraid of aligning with the racist, aligning with the misogynist,
aligning with.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
The bad thing.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Well, that meant Todd Aiken was defeated because Republicans withdrew
their money and allowed Claire McCaskill to win. And here's
her dumb self on MSNBC.
Speaker 12 (14:54):
Are the people on that plane, even a member of
this gang who'd been instructed.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
To do anything by anybody?
Speaker 12 (15:00):
And the idea that a president can just decide, Okay,
here's somebody who's from a different country. I think they're
here because their government wanted to come here and commit crimes.
And I'm going to put them in prison for the
rest of their life in another country and they can't
do anything about it. Is that America is that what
we are as a country really is that what MAGA
(15:23):
really wants a president to have that kind of power
because you know what that power could be used against anybody.
It's a little bit like Trump's saying he wants to
go after lawyers and final frivolous lawsuits. Well, that's what
The courts are there to decide whether a lawsuit is frivolous,
not Donald Trump.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
He doesn't get to decide.
Speaker 12 (15:42):
And the idea that checks and balances are going to
happen here, I think they're overestimating their hand with the courts.
I do believe the Supreme Court. I pray the Supreme
Court will provide the backstop it should under the law.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
So many of these women sound desperate and frantic. You
notice that their voice shakes like the It's it's almost
as if they know they're full of it and they're afraid.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Maybe you figured it out. Bizarre is on well done.
So this is the Michael Berry Show, Like.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Probably many of you, right, moved from one thing to
the next of doing deep dives on things subjects, people, music, bands, guns, countries, languages,
and I'm in a deep dive of bare necked ladies
right now. They're writing their music, their songs, their history,
(16:48):
their tours.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
So forgive me.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
I've been asking Ramon for a lot of barenked ladies lately,
so you may be getting more bare neckd ladies songs
than you expected. So let me address this issue of
the the attempt by the Democrats and their media to
(17:13):
steinmy the momentum of the Trump administration, because that's what
this issue is. This is not an email issue. This
is not a national security compromise national security issue. This
is an attempt to throw smoke in the room and
disrupt what's happening. So Jeffrey Goldberg with The Atlantic is
(17:36):
an evil person. He is a very very bad person.
And Jeffrey Goldberg says he was copied on a group
chat detailing war plans in Yemen. It's not the first
time that this guy has made claims that paint the
Trump administration in a bad light. Credit count called May's
(18:01):
on X Listen to this.
Speaker 13 (18:03):
That issue is a report by the Atlantis Jeffrey Goldberg,
based on accounts from anonymous sources. Goldberg writes of the
morning Trump was scheduled to visit an American cemetery near Paris,
where American marines are buried to the piece of the article.
In a conversation with senior staff members on the morning
of the scheduled visit, Trump said, quote, why should I
go to that cemetery? It's filled with losers. In a
separate conversation on the same trip, Trump referred to more
(18:25):
than eighteen hundred Marines who lost their lives at Bellow
Wood as quote suckers were getting killed Earlier Today, Goldberg
responded to the pushback from the President and several of
the President's ads.
Speaker 14 (18:35):
I stand by my reporting, multiple sources telling me this
is what happened.
Speaker 15 (18:41):
Here's what Kelly told The Atlantic magazine about a White
House conversation. After Trump told Kelly he wished he'd be
more like German generals, Kelly said, quote, do you mean
the Kaiser's general Surely you can't mean Hitler's generals. And
Trump said, yeah, yeah, Hitler's generals. What do you think
that this is important for voters to know about? Is
I want to why did you do this story now?
(19:01):
Is that you finally got the confirmation of these stories recently.
Speaker 14 (19:06):
Yeah, I got confirmations and I got on the record
interviews that I needed to make sure that the story
was solid, including an interview with General Kelly.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
So that's Jeffrey Goldberg. Okay, let's go back to the
first administration, First Trump administration, New York Post headline, General
Milli admits he would tell Chinese general if US launched
an attack. Milli admitted that he would warn the Japanese,
(19:44):
I mean the Chinese if we launched an attack. That's
the highest form of treason. It would cost American lives.
What did Jeffrey Goldberg write? The headline the patriot General
Mark Milly protected the US Constitution from Donald Trump.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
That was his response to that. Here are some.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Articles, columns, the headlines of columns that Jeffrey Goldberg. So
you understand who this guy is because that speaks to
his credibility. In defense of naked Joe Biden, the political
press is tittering over the idea of the vice president
skinny dipping and missing the real news in a forthcoming
(20:32):
book on his secret service detail.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Another one.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Joe Biden the most influential vice president in history?
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Question mark? Another one.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
It is totally normal that Joe Biden's son works for
a Ukrainian energy company. Okay, another one, Stay alive, Joe Biden.
Democrats need little from the front runner beyond his corporeal presence,
because remember, we have to beat Trump. Another one, Run
(21:06):
Joe run. Why Democrats need a Biden candidacy? Another one,
WTF question mark, leave Biden alone? Another one Joe Biden's
dating advice for girls because Joe.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Biden can do no wrong.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
Why wouldn't this pedophile offer dating advice for girls? Another one,
Biden gets China. That's where we were to learn that
Biden was the one who understands China, not the rest
of us. Another one, Biden tells third graders Obama is
quote really cool because that'll make us like Biden or
(21:50):
Obama or okay. Another one Joe Biden comma crazy like
a Fox. Question Mark, Let me remind you that The Atlantic,
which is doing this is owned by the widow of
Steve Jobs, a nutty lady named Laurene Powell Jobs. And
she said she bought the Atlantic to create a social narrative.
Speaker 9 (22:16):
It was pretty obvious to me that we could build
you know, we build out in a very cross disciplinary
way our work capital investing and policy and philanthropy, and
we could do this work forever and ever, and we
could have the narrative overtaken by someone who's who has
(22:43):
a lot of power, who's completely contrary to us, and
we could never get to the place where we think
we're part of a more just and equal society. And
so it was obvious that if we could be part
of the the creation of cultural narrative, that would that
(23:04):
would enhance and amplify all the work that we're.
Speaker 11 (23:07):
Doing, which is Hillary Clinton talked about today, is telling
the story, getting the content out there.
Speaker 9 (23:11):
Yeah, she was, yes, yeah, yeah, so these are these
are early days for us, But that's that's the idea
behind it. We want to inspire the kind of stories
that we'd like.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
To see told.
Speaker 12 (23:21):
Do you ever see buying something bigger like the New
York Times, for example?
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Is it for sale?
Speaker 2 (23:26):
It could be for you.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
Those terms, she used, our conference speak, their liberal conference speak,
for buying media for the sole purpose of writing stories
about people like Donald Trump and defeating him, controlling the
country through narratives in media that you own. Folks, don't
(23:52):
let these people fool you. They make up anything and everything.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Tomway, So.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
I'm not much of a particular thing this is going
to happen. I think some people like to do that
because they like to get the credit when something that
could happens happens, and they just figure, well, if it
doesn't happen, they can claim it will happen in the future.
And most people's memory is not very good to double
back and go, hey, you said that so and so
(24:31):
was going to win the election, or that this was
going to happen. But I am a big believer in
preparing you for on a bigger scale, what's going to
happen a broader scale, and to set some barriers here. Okay,
Trump had an unprecedented first week. It turned into an
(24:56):
unprecedented first month. It turned into an unprecedented two months.
Democrats were on their heels. You ever been in a
sporting event or as an athlete, been in a game
where the other team you show up to play, but
you got a little bit of the butterflies, and before
you know it, the other team has scored on you
(25:17):
a bunch of times, and you're just looking up and
going what just happened?
Speaker 2 (25:21):
And you're not even through.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
The first quarter. That's what Trump did. Trump prepared during
his exile to walk in and you know, normally there's
so much pump and circumstance and ceremony, and you know
it's very slow going and enjoying the honeymoon. Dam he
(25:44):
came in, I mean guns blazing, and nobody saw it coming.
He rolled through them like a hot knife through butter.
But now now they're getting their footing. Before they have
a strategy, they first have to create chaos and slow
(26:05):
this down dissent.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
They have to have Republicans turning on Republicans.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
They have to give Karl Rove an excuse to be
able with a straight face that as it is on Fox,
to be able to claim Trump screwed up. And then
the patina is off, Then then is the Then then
the gold, the blooms off, the rose the gold has
been scuffed.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
And that's what they're trying to do.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
So House Minority Leader Hakim Jeffries was asked about this report.
Oh my god, the Trump administration accidentally released national security information.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
That's not true. How does this happen?
Speaker 3 (26:46):
So Hakim Jeffries said, with a straight face, I won't
play the audio. He said, this whole Trump administration is
filled with lackeys and incompetent cronies. This is the guy
who supported Joe Biden, whose Democrat Party administration representation of
(27:09):
merit was, for instance, the dude who had a shaved
head and lipstick and wore dresses and high heels and
was stealing people's luggage at the airport and calling himself
a woman. And he was in charge of nuclear waste disposal.
Kind of an important position the merit because we don't
(27:31):
want lackeys and incompetent cronies.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
The merit of the Biden administration.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Was Admiral Rachel Levine, a dude looking like Ms. Piggy,
dressed in a woman's dressed blues, in charge of the
nation's health.
Speaker 16 (27:51):
Remember, and the truth that we need to confront now
is that list and science are being politically perverted around
this country.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
This destroys human lives. So how can something so rot.
Speaker 16 (28:12):
So to night we are precycipicate, after all, we've.
Speaker 17 (28:21):
Been good, I don't you.
Speaker 18 (28:29):
Trans youth are vulnerable and they suffer significant harassment and
bullying sometimes at schools, are in their community. They have
more mental health issues. But there's nothing inherent with being
transgender or gender diverse, which which predisposed youth to depression
or anxiety.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
It is that harassment and bullying. So how can something
so right? So after all we've been.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
Why do I.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Don't know you? I can something's a arrive. You're so
roman side, I get something so good? Let me fingers
so bad? Them coming to let me lonely happiness day
of my life is so sad?
Speaker 9 (29:22):
I can I feel?
Speaker 2 (29:24):
And I feel so after all we've been prov after
coming in? So far's this boy? Where's the love? Switzer Inlisa?
Okay something?
Speaker 3 (29:39):
So they all sat around while Miss Piggy, a dude
in a women's uniform and heels, lectured the nation on health,
(30:06):
acting like this was normal. Those of you old enough
to remember the TV show Mash know that Klinger dressed
as a woman in an attempt to be deemed crazy
and get out of his military service. That was the
sign that he was crazy. And Hakeem Jeffries says this
(30:31):
with a straight face, that the Trump administration is filled
with lackeys and incompetent cronies.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Are you kidding me? How about the.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Cross dressing Deputy Assistant Secretary of Spent Fuel and Waste
Disposition Nuclear most Important only in the Office of Nuclear Energy,
Sam Britton. You know the guy that kept stealing luggage
at the airport that looked like lex Luthor.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
We named him Lexi Luthor.
Speaker 5 (31:03):
Hey, Frank, it's bobbed down here in luggage plane. Yeah, man,
you'll never guess what I got down here. One of
them non binaries is sitting in my office waiting for
the cops. The man lady tried to steal someone else's
luggage off my carousel.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Twitzy.
Speaker 5 (31:21):
Here is some nuclear science person for a Biden administration.
She does look like a white Jada Pinkett Smith pulled
in an address.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
How'd you know that? Getload of Frank Einstein over here?
He watches the news.
Speaker 5 (31:37):
Well, you're gonna see criminal mastermind Lexi Luthor on the
news for sure.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
No, I ain't sending you a pick. You're perve.
Speaker 5 (31:45):
We're still getting a beer after work, right, all right, Frank,
I gotta go right up a report on missus clean.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
I'll catch you later.
Speaker 17 (31:53):
Plugged her eyebrows on the way, shaved their legs, and
then he was as she She says. He beabe take
a walk on the wild side. He said, hey, honey,
take a walk on the wild side.
Speaker 5 (32:22):
Sh
It's that time time time, there's luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Michael Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
For so many years there was this sort of defeatist attitude.
America's on a crash course with disaster. The spending was
out of control, and nobody knew how to fix it.
And then Trump comes in and he brings his group
and they show, yeah, we can turn this thing around.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
You just have to do it.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
And that is the moment, that aha moment, that just
earth shattering moment where you realize all these people who've
been running for office and holding office, they never intended
to solve the problem. This could have been done before,
nobody wanted to do it, and all of a sudden,
(01:11):
they're doing it. We've talked about terminating the Department of
Education since Carter implemented it during his term in the
late seventies. Reagan talked about it. Bush talked about it,
the next Bush talked about it. They've all talked about it.
Trump's doing it, and now we have this just delicious
(01:35):
irony or delicious moment where the left is losing their
mind because government is their power source, it's their money,
it's their power, it's their jobs, it's their control. If
you shrink the government, you shrink their power base. It's
(01:56):
like the Wicked Witch and the Wizard of Oz when
the water hits her and she just drivels away. They
know this. They will fight for their governmental jobs, money, contracts,
all of it, because this is their very survival. And
a lot of people don't understand that. This is not
(02:16):
about whether we need a Department of education. That's not
the point. This is about why they have to have
all government. Government needs to keep growing, expanding more money.
And Trump knows that this is what is sinking our nation.
So he says, look, I'm ending it. We're done. We'll
(02:39):
give that off to other departments it can handle it
more efficiently, and we'll eliminate a bunch of their functions.
Education should be at the most local level, at the
household level to start with, not in the federal government.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Imagine that. How ridiculous is that.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
So the left is now trying to figure out, hey,
what does Department of Education do? Because whatever they do,
but let's claim that with that out that the kids
will die. What do they actually do because nobody really knows.
They just suck up a bunch of money. So here
we are the big news. What will we do without
the Department of Education?
Speaker 4 (03:17):
This just in.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Americans across the country are panicking, clutching their common core
workbooks and sobbing into their student loan statements, all because
President Trump started dismantling the Department of Education. Reports are
coming in of grown adults, mostly ones who haven't been
inside of public school since the Bush administration, screaming.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Things like, but how will we teach kids what gender
they are?
Speaker 1 (03:41):
And who will funnel billions into programs with zero measurable success?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Trust the process? Trust the process.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Experts also known as career bureaucrats who have never taught
a day in their lives warrant that without the Department
of Education, we risk a future where kids might actually
learn things like read, writing, and thinking critically.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
I mean, what if states start making their own decisions?
What if parents come involved?
Speaker 1 (04:10):
What if what if kids weren't just test taking robots
prepared for a lifetime of debt and dependence Todd Yes,
the Department of Education, responsible for decades of declining test scores,
skyrocketing costs, and redefining success as we didn't set the
building on fire, is finally facing its report card and
(04:30):
spoiler alert, it's not on the out roll.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Defund it.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
So say goodbye to the eighty billion dollar bureaucracy that
accomplished less than your cousin's homeschooled kid with a library
card and a YouTube account. And remember, without the Department
of Education, children just might start learning again.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Sometimes too hot, Ye, I have insurance, and often it
is ghost complexion.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I think she's speaking in tons.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
This has been a public disservice announcement.
Speaker 6 (04:59):
Your well, America, move the American Embassy in Israel, begin
the shutdown with the Department of Education.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
What about bringing back American manufacturing? Remember when Barack Obama
laughed at the idea that President Trump could bring manufacturing
back to the United States, Remember this flashback moment to
PBS News Hour.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
And so what we have to do is to make
sure that folks are trained for the job that are
coming in now, because some of those jobs of the
past are just not going to come back. And when
somebody says, like the person you just mentioned, who I'm
not going to advertise for, that he's going to bring
(05:50):
all these jobs back, well, how exactly.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Are you going to do that?
Speaker 4 (05:53):
What are you going to do? There's no answer to it,
He just says, well, I'm going to I'm going to
negotiate a better deal. How exactly are you going to
negotiate that? What magic wand do you have? And usually
the answer is he doesn't have an answer.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Clearly he does.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
President Trump waived his magic wand and brought a new
five billion dollars steel mill to Louisiana.
Speaker 7 (06:22):
Today, we're delighted to report that Hyundai is announcing a
major five point eight billion dollar investment in American manufacturing.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
In particular, Hyundai.
Speaker 7 (06:32):
We'll be building a brand new steel plant in Louisiana
which will produce more than two point seven million metric
tons of steal a year, creating more than fourteen hundred
jobs for American steel workers, and then there'll be major
expansion after that. This will be Hyundai's first ever steel
mill in the United States, one of the largest companies
in the world by the way, supplying steel for souto
(06:55):
parts and auto plants and Alabama and Georgia.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
White House Press Secretary Carol and Levitt was on Fox
News where she gave some more details on this deal.
Speaker 8 (07:04):
Tariff's work and President Trump is proving that every single
day when new companies from around the world are pledging
to invest billions of dollars in the United States of
America in our workforce. Today we had Hyundai announcing fifty
twenty billion dollars an American investment, five billion dollars in
(07:25):
the great state of Louisiana to build a steel plant.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Why.
Speaker 8 (07:29):
Because President Trump has implemented a twenty five percent tariff
on steal and he has told companies around the world
that America is open for business and you won't face
any tariffs. If you bring your production to the United States,
you will have low taxes, low energy costs, and you
will have the best workforce.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
In the world.
Speaker 8 (07:47):
You will hire American workers. And so every single one
of these investments, the American people need to understand, this
is more money coming into your community. This is your
hometown where you grew up that has been shuttered because
globalists have sold you out, reviving again factories where your
neighbors are having good paying jobs, where more money is
(08:07):
going back into your pockets. And every time you go
to the store to purchase a product, you're no longer
seeing made in China on the back, you are seeing
maide in America on the back. That's President Trump's vision
with these tariffs, and every day he is proving that
they work, and he is making America wealthy.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
A guest Live, Laugh, Learn doing it Big on The
Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
I love.
Speaker 9 (08:32):
I mean.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Talk about Schodenfreud. I love watching the left trip and fall.
It's hilarious to me, watching them desperate, watching them making
stupid arguments and realizing, do you you understand how stupid
you sound? Because I live in as Rush Limbaugh used
(08:58):
to say, as the mayor of Realville, I live in Realville.
These people have no understanding. I remember I think one
one was with The New York Times a few years
ago and she said, I don't even know anyone who
owns a truck. I know almost only people who own
a truck.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
It is, it is.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
It's really interesting the two Americas, the coastal elites who
are so responsible for supposedly being influencers, and then the
people back home who look at them going. You know,
they do their best to hide how different they are
from real Americans, but then they say stupid things like
(09:44):
Stephen Colin, CNN political reporter, who made this argument.
Speaker 10 (09:48):
Yeah, I think what's going to end up happening potentially
is that unbolcumented migrants and largely obay the law are
going to stop filing tax returns. And that's going to
cause not just chaos and the government won't know where
everybody is. It's going to cost billions of dollars in revenue.
And there seems to be some inconsistency between the presence
(10:09):
arguments that we're going off to murderers and rapists and
people who have been taken out of thousands, and.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
We're going to talk about that later this hour.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
There's this kind of push into everyone who has a
legal status, legal status. So what will we do if
we take all the murderers and sex traffickers and drug
traffickers that are killing us and rapists and trende urrahwa
if we take them off the streets.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Who will pay their taxes?
Speaker 3 (10:44):
New York Governor Kathy Hokeel told David Parkman that her
state will not be cooperating with the federal government with ICE,
and that any of the counties in her state.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Who do will be considered rogue counties.
Speaker 11 (11:00):
We're not going to allow this mass deportation where we
will cooperate. And I did this even under the Biden administration,
if you have a warrant, or you know someone's on
a terrorism watch list or committing crimes in their home country,
committing crimes here, that's a different category, and I will
help you with those to protect everyone, whether the newly
arriving New Yorkers or whether they've lived here their entire lives.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
So that's real clear to me. But don't bleed.
Speaker 11 (11:26):
Over into going to schools and sensitive places. So our
state policy, our state law does not allow for our
state police to be involved in those situations. Now, what
we have are some renegade counties in New York because
individual counties can sign a pact with ICE, and we
have a lot of them, some on Long Island, some
in Upstate New York where there's different political views. They
(11:50):
are cooperating with their local police departments. But what I
control is the state police, and they will not cooperate
in that.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
So you will not cooperate with the federal government. An
oath you took, you will.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
Not cooperate, You will violate the law in your official capacity.
President Trump has no alternative than to prosecute these people.
He has no alternative than to rain down hell upon them.
And Trump reminds me in many ways of the dog
(12:28):
being introduced to the dog park where all the dogs
are gathered around the water or whatever. He understands that
you have to go in and show them.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Who you are. It's like the first day at prison.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
You've sometimes got to fight when you didn't want to
keep from having to fight all the time. Trump has
got to make an example out of her, and I
fully expect as defiant as she's being that he will
Another example former Democrat Missouri Senator Claire mccaskell. She was
the chairman of the Barack Obama reelection campaign in twenty twelve.
(13:08):
She would have no longer been a senator in swing
state Missouri if it had not been for that bloviating
Karl Rove.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
A little flashback.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Todd Aiken, a doctor, was running for the Senate against
Claire mccaskell, who was running for reelection. Aiken was leading
in the polls and he made a statement as a
doctor about legitimate rape claims and legitimate rape as it
(13:41):
relates to pro life versus abortion, and the left immediately said,
there can be no rape claim that's not legitimate. Well,
we know that there can. You could refer to a
legitimate racial attack. And then you could look to the
(14:04):
case in Allentown of the woman who's on the school
board and is a city employee who put a noose
on her own desk and claimed that that had been
left there to show that she's going to be hanged,
when in fact we know that that was a hoax.
But the Left, as they did with this story with
(14:27):
the bombing of Yemen, they create fear and people are
so afraid of aligning with the racist, aligning with the misogynist,
aligning with.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
The bad thing.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Well, that meant Todd Aiken was defeated because Republicans withdrew
their money and allowed Claire McCaskill to win. And here's
her dumb self on MSNBC.
Speaker 12 (14:54):
Are the people on that plane, even a member of
this gang who'd been instructed.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
To do anything by anybody?
Speaker 12 (15:00):
And the idea that a president can just decide, Okay,
here's somebody who's from a different country. I think they're
here because their government wanted to come here and commit crimes.
And I'm going to put them in prison for the
rest of their life in another country and they can't
do anything about it. Is that America is that what
we are as a country really is that what MAGA
(15:23):
really wants a president to have that kind of power
because you know what that power could be used against anybody.
It's a little bit like Trump's saying he wants to
go after lawyers and final frivolous lawsuits. Well, that's what
The courts are there to decide whether a lawsuit is frivolous,
not Donald Trump.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
He doesn't get to decide.
Speaker 12 (15:42):
And the idea that checks and balances are going to
happen here, I think they're overestimating their hand with the courts.
I do believe the Supreme Court. I pray the Supreme
Court will provide the backstop it should under the law.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
So many of these women sound desperate and frantic. You
notice that their voice shakes like the It's it's almost
as if they know they're full of it and they're afraid.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Maybe you figured it out. Bizarre is on well done.
So this is the Michael Berry Show, Like.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Probably many of you, right, moved from one thing to
the next of doing deep dives on things subjects, people, music, bands, guns, countries, languages,
and I'm in a deep dive of bare necked ladies
right now. They're writing their music, their songs, their history,
(16:48):
their tours.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
So forgive me.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
I've been asking Ramon for a lot of barenked ladies lately,
so you may be getting more bare neckd ladies songs
than you expected. So let me address this issue of
the the attempt by the Democrats and their media to
(17:13):
steinmy the momentum of the Trump administration, because that's what
this issue is. This is not an email issue. This
is not a national security compromise national security issue. This
is an attempt to throw smoke in the room and
disrupt what's happening. So Jeffrey Goldberg with The Atlantic is
(17:36):
an evil person. He is a very very bad person.
And Jeffrey Goldberg says he was copied on a group
chat detailing war plans in Yemen. It's not the first
time that this guy has made claims that paint the
Trump administration in a bad light. Credit count called May's
(18:01):
on X Listen to this.
Speaker 13 (18:03):
That issue is a report by the Atlantis Jeffrey Goldberg,
based on accounts from anonymous sources. Goldberg writes of the
morning Trump was scheduled to visit an American cemetery near Paris,
where American marines are buried to the piece of the article.
In a conversation with senior staff members on the morning
of the scheduled visit, Trump said, quote, why should I
go to that cemetery? It's filled with losers. In a
separate conversation on the same trip, Trump referred to more
(18:25):
than eighteen hundred Marines who lost their lives at Bellow
Wood as quote suckers were getting killed Earlier Today, Goldberg
responded to the pushback from the President and several of
the President's ads.
Speaker 14 (18:35):
I stand by my reporting, multiple sources telling me this
is what happened.
Speaker 15 (18:41):
Here's what Kelly told The Atlantic magazine about a White
House conversation. After Trump told Kelly he wished he'd be
more like German generals, Kelly said, quote, do you mean
the Kaiser's general Surely you can't mean Hitler's generals. And
Trump said, yeah, yeah, Hitler's generals. What do you think
that this is important for voters to know about? Is
I want to why did you do this story now?
(19:01):
Is that you finally got the confirmation of these stories recently.
Speaker 14 (19:06):
Yeah, I got confirmations and I got on the record
interviews that I needed to make sure that the story
was solid, including an interview with General Kelly.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
So that's Jeffrey Goldberg. Okay, let's go back to the
first administration, First Trump administration, New York Post headline, General
Milli admits he would tell Chinese general if US launched
an attack. Milli admitted that he would warn the Japanese,
(19:44):
I mean the Chinese if we launched an attack. That's
the highest form of treason. It would cost American lives.
What did Jeffrey Goldberg write? The headline the patriot General
Mark Milly protected the US Constitution from Donald Trump.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
That was his response to that. Here are some.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Articles, columns, the headlines of columns that Jeffrey Goldberg. So
you understand who this guy is because that speaks to
his credibility. In defense of naked Joe Biden, the political
press is tittering over the idea of the vice president
skinny dipping and missing the real news in a forthcoming
(20:32):
book on his secret service detail.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Another one.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Joe Biden the most influential vice president in history?
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Question mark? Another one.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
It is totally normal that Joe Biden's son works for
a Ukrainian energy company. Okay, another one, Stay alive, Joe Biden.
Democrats need little from the front runner beyond his corporeal presence,
because remember, we have to beat Trump. Another one, Run
(21:06):
Joe run. Why Democrats need a Biden candidacy? Another one,
WTF question mark, leave Biden alone? Another one Joe Biden's
dating advice for girls because Joe.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Biden can do no wrong.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
Why wouldn't this pedophile offer dating advice for girls? Another one,
Biden gets China. That's where we were to learn that
Biden was the one who understands China, not the rest
of us. Another one, Biden tells third graders Obama is
quote really cool because that'll make us like Biden or
(21:50):
Obama or okay. Another one Joe Biden comma crazy like
a Fox. Question Mark, Let me remind you that The Atlantic,
which is doing this is owned by the widow of
Steve Jobs, a nutty lady named Laurene Powell Jobs. And
she said she bought the Atlantic to create a social narrative.
Speaker 9 (22:16):
It was pretty obvious to me that we could build
you know, we build out in a very cross disciplinary
way our work capital investing and policy and philanthropy, and
we could do this work forever and ever, and we
could have the narrative overtaken by someone who's who has
(22:43):
a lot of power, who's completely contrary to us, and
we could never get to the place where we think
we're part of a more just and equal society. And
so it was obvious that if we could be part
of the the creation of cultural narrative, that would that
(23:04):
would enhance and amplify all the work that we're.
Speaker 11 (23:07):
Doing, which is Hillary Clinton talked about today, is telling
the story, getting the content out there.
Speaker 9 (23:11):
Yeah, she was, yes, yeah, yeah, so these are these
are early days for us, But that's that's the idea
behind it. We want to inspire the kind of stories
that we'd like.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
To see told.
Speaker 12 (23:21):
Do you ever see buying something bigger like the New
York Times, for example?
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Is it for sale?
Speaker 2 (23:26):
It could be for you.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
Those terms, she used, our conference speak, their liberal conference speak,
for buying media for the sole purpose of writing stories
about people like Donald Trump and defeating him, controlling the
country through narratives in media that you own. Folks, don't
(23:52):
let these people fool you. They make up anything and everything.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Tomway, So.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
I'm not much of a particular thing this is going
to happen. I think some people like to do that
because they like to get the credit when something that
could happens happens, and they just figure, well, if it
doesn't happen, they can claim it will happen in the future.
And most people's memory is not very good to double
back and go, hey, you said that so and so
(24:31):
was going to win the election, or that this was
going to happen. But I am a big believer in
preparing you for on a bigger scale, what's going to
happen a broader scale, and to set some barriers here. Okay,
Trump had an unprecedented first week. It turned into an
(24:56):
unprecedented first month. It turned into an unprecedented two months.
Democrats were on their heels. You ever been in a
sporting event or as an athlete, been in a game
where the other team you show up to play, but
you got a little bit of the butterflies, and before
you know it, the other team has scored on you
(25:17):
a bunch of times, and you're just looking up and
going what just happened?
Speaker 2 (25:21):
And you're not even through.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
The first quarter. That's what Trump did. Trump prepared during
his exile to walk in and you know, normally there's
so much pump and circumstance and ceremony, and you know
it's very slow going and enjoying the honeymoon. Dam he
(25:44):
came in, I mean guns blazing, and nobody saw it coming.
He rolled through them like a hot knife through butter.
But now now they're getting their footing. Before they have
a strategy, they first have to create chaos and slow
(26:05):
this down dissent.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
They have to have Republicans turning on Republicans.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
They have to give Karl Rove an excuse to be
able with a straight face that as it is on Fox,
to be able to claim Trump screwed up. And then
the patina is off, Then then is the Then then
the gold, the blooms off, the rose the gold has
been scuffed.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
And that's what they're trying to do.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
So House Minority Leader Hakim Jeffries was asked about this report.
Oh my god, the Trump administration accidentally released national security information.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
That's not true. How does this happen?
Speaker 3 (26:46):
So Hakim Jeffries said, with a straight face, I won't
play the audio. He said, this whole Trump administration is
filled with lackeys and incompetent cronies. This is the guy
who supported Joe Biden, whose Democrat Party administration representation of
(27:09):
merit was, for instance, the dude who had a shaved
head and lipstick and wore dresses and high heels and
was stealing people's luggage at the airport and calling himself
a woman. And he was in charge of nuclear waste disposal.
Kind of an important position the merit because we don't
(27:31):
want lackeys and incompetent cronies.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
The merit of the Biden administration.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Was Admiral Rachel Levine, a dude looking like Ms. Piggy,
dressed in a woman's dressed blues, in charge of the
nation's health.
Speaker 16 (27:51):
Remember, and the truth that we need to confront now
is that list and science are being politically perverted around
this country.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
This destroys human lives. So how can something so rot.
Speaker 16 (28:12):
So to night we are precycipicate, after all, we've.
Speaker 17 (28:21):
Been good, I don't you.
Speaker 18 (28:29):
Trans youth are vulnerable and they suffer significant harassment and
bullying sometimes at schools, are in their community. They have
more mental health issues. But there's nothing inherent with being
transgender or gender diverse, which which predisposed youth to depression
or anxiety.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
It is that harassment and bullying. So how can something
so right? So after all we've been.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
Why do I.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Don't know you? I can something's a arrive. You're so
roman side, I get something so good? Let me fingers
so bad? Them coming to let me lonely happiness day
of my life is so sad?
Speaker 9 (29:22):
I can I feel?
Speaker 2 (29:24):
And I feel so after all we've been prov after
coming in? So far's this boy? Where's the love? Switzer Inlisa?
Okay something?
Speaker 3 (29:39):
So they all sat around while Miss Piggy, a dude
in a women's uniform and heels, lectured the nation on health,
(30:06):
acting like this was normal. Those of you old enough
to remember the TV show Mash know that Klinger dressed
as a woman in an attempt to be deemed crazy
and get out of his military service. That was the
sign that he was crazy. And Hakeem Jeffries says this
(30:31):
with a straight face, that the Trump administration is filled
with lackeys and incompetent cronies.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Are you kidding me? How about the.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Cross dressing Deputy Assistant Secretary of Spent Fuel and Waste
Disposition Nuclear most Important only in the Office of Nuclear Energy,
Sam Britton. You know the guy that kept stealing luggage
at the airport that looked like lex Luthor.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
We named him Lexi Luthor.
Speaker 5 (31:03):
Hey, Frank, it's bobbed down here in luggage plane. Yeah, man,
you'll never guess what I got down here. One of
them non binaries is sitting in my office waiting for
the cops. The man lady tried to steal someone else's
luggage off my carousel.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Twitzy.
Speaker 5 (31:21):
Here is some nuclear science person for a Biden administration.
She does look like a white Jada Pinkett Smith pulled
in an address.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
How'd you know that? Getload of Frank Einstein over here?
He watches the news.
Speaker 5 (31:37):
Well, you're gonna see criminal mastermind Lexi Luthor on the
news for sure.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
No, I ain't sending you a pick. You're perve.
Speaker 5 (31:45):
We're still getting a beer after work, right, all right, Frank,
I gotta go right up a report on missus clean.
