Speaker 1 (00:02):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Are you the guys on the beach who hate everything?
Is this some sort of hYP music that I don't understand.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
I just want to say for the record, since we
heard President Trump say in the Oval Office that CNN
hates our country, CNN does not hate our country.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Here's here's a breaking news.
Speaker 5 (00:53):
We live in a racist, sexist, homophobic, islamophobic, anti Semitic country.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Everything they're doing runs again.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
It's making America great. It was never great, so I'm
not gonna say the a gampire, but making America great.
Speaker 6 (01:04):
Taking off the Independence Day weekend, President Trump will be
at Mount Rushmore, where he'll be standing in front of
a monument of two slave owners and on land wrestled
away from Native Americans, told that be focusing on the
effort to quote tear down our country's history.
Speaker 7 (01:48):
They strongly believe, these human smugglers that this is their chance.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
To enter the United State, this is their chance.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
At the American dream.
Speaker 8 (01:56):
That's why they risk everything only to find out that
it's all.
Speaker 9 (02:00):
And when we got our freedom, our quote unquote freedom,
we were never restored whole, which is why you hear
about reparation. So until the United States atones for that
and makes good on that, we're still living in a
racist country.
Speaker 10 (02:24):
The New York Post, in The New York Times, the
Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC. The Democrats constantly tell you the
Trump is the devil because they cannot let him succeed
because if he shows the path to success, and it
is a path that they have rejected, he proves them
(02:44):
wrong and makes them look a fool. This is sort
of like the fellow who abuses his wife, she leaves
him and finds happiness somewhere else, or the husband who's
constantly maligned by his wife. She files for divorce and
he goes on to find happiness. They don't want Trump
(03:09):
to succeed because it is an indictment of them, and indicted,
she will be the Attorney General of the State of
New York. What a mess she's turned out to be.
But first CNN of all people, CNN Harry Inton, I
think the order has gone down. Hey, look guys, we
got to get our viewers back. We have no credibility.
(03:31):
We've got to get some folks who voted for Trump
to come back and watch so they let Scott Jennings
every night put on a masterclass on how to make
liberals look like fools. And they have Harry Inton here
talking about the story that the media keeps telling you
that Trump voters regret their vote. The tariffs are going
to be bad for them, They regret their vote. CNN's
(03:53):
Harry Inton says, not so fast, in a very lead
coursold way. Let's talk about it Trump voters and how
they feel.
Speaker 4 (04:01):
Do they regret their votes?
Speaker 11 (04:03):
I mean, this is the big question, right. I hear
all these stories, all these articles, all the Trump voters
they regret what they did back in twenty twenty four.
I'm here to tell you very few of them regret
what they did back in twenty twenty four.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
What are we.
Speaker 11 (04:17):
Talking about Trump voters looking back at twenty twenty four.
We got a new poll out. The poll was conducted
this month. What percentage would change their vote to a
different candidate.
Speaker 10 (04:25):
We're talking just.
Speaker 11 (04:26):
Two percent, just two percent, that's not even a WIDESPU
on the road. And then there's this additional one percent
who say they would rather not vote. We're talking overall
under five percent might or would have changed their vote
Donald Trump voters back in twenty twenty four. And then
you ask, okay, the same question the Kamala Harris voters,
and it turns out the numbers are rather similar. So
if there was a repeat, if folks got to be
(04:48):
able to redo their vote that they had back in
twenty twenty four, would the result be any different?
Speaker 4 (04:53):
I doubt it would be.
Speaker 11 (04:54):
I doubt it would be, or it would still be
extremely close. The bottom line is, for all this talk
of Trump voters regretting their vote in the numbers, it
really just doesn't show uption soe the stickiness with Trump
voters in President Trump in this presidency, how does it
compare to his first president? Yeah? Okay, so you know,
I was interested in sort of a historical analogy here,
sort of does this look similar or different from back
(05:17):
in twenty seventeen looking at twenty sixteen. Well, in February
of twenty seventeen, four percent four percent of Trump voters
say they'd shift their vote.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
That's actually slightly.
Speaker 11 (05:26):
More than the three percent this time around. So you know,
you look back, you say, okay, there's these Trump voters
who really regret their vote. Historically speaking, they really don't
regret their vote and if anything, the number this time
around is actually smaller than it was the first time around,
and it's certainly smaller than the number we saw coming
out of twenty twenty, of course, after the events of
(05:48):
January sixth.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
So the bottom line.
Speaker 11 (05:50):
Is this, if there's some idea out there that Trump
voters are going around man, I wish I had voted
for Kamala Harrison instead of Donald Trump. The numbers say
that it's a fanciful universe. Really, for the most part,
does not exist.
Speaker 10 (06:04):
Well said, look at the numbers of people who wish
they hadn't voted for Biden who did when they found
out the Hunter laptop story was true. Most of them
weren't aware of it because it was silenced using social
media suppression, and those who did know about it believed
that it was false because they were told it was
false by fifty three intelligence professionals from the Bush, Clinton
(06:27):
and Obama administrations. And they would never lie. And we
learned that we learned it, didn't we that they did.
I will not be addressing the school shooting today. I
realize that some people love to watch car Rex, even
if they say, why do people rubberneck when there's a
car wreck and they rubberneck. It is my steadfast belief
(06:51):
that we have a problem of people craving attention with
mental health problems, and we have a problem with media
using these crises as a way to get more eyeballs
watching the television. That's why they all go long form.
When there's a school shooting, as there was today, it
is the worst of society. It is the worst. You
(07:14):
don't have to cover it. Ninety nine out of one
hundred things that happened in society don't get covered. Try
to do something good, try to raise money for a
good person or a good cause, and you can't get
the story in the news unless it's absolutely a zero
news day. But have one nut job who wants a
(07:35):
lot of attention, who's written a manifesto. Have one trainee
in Nashville or any other place shoot the place up.
The more people they kill, the more attention is paid.
It's a sick society. The sickness doesn't end at the
person pulling the trigger. The sickness ends and the number
of people perpetuating this problem because there will be copycats
of it. Columbine is when it began in Earnest that
(07:58):
got round the claw coverage, and so people with a
sense that nobody was paying attention to them, Nobody cared
about how grandiose their ideas were, nobody cared to give
voice to their ideas. So what do I have to do?
How many people have to kill for you to pay
attention to me? And that's what media is doing and
we won't participate ever, never, ever, never, never ever. The
(08:24):
Michael Daries Joe continues to use to use so AOC
has raised nine point six million dollars in the first
quarter of twenty twenty five. She is the nominee right now.
I believe this. That's not a joke, that's not a
fear for us. She is the nominee. She is bolstered
(08:47):
by powers much greater. If you're caught up in I
don't think she weighing. Is she not very smart? You
don't understand how Joe Biden won. You don't understand that
there are powerful people pulling the levers and paying the
bills to make her the president because she's dumb enough
and moldable like Clay to do what they want. That's
(09:10):
why they wanted Biden. They're just trying to They're going
to control the country they're just trying to figure out
what it'll take for you to vote for them to
control the country behind the scenes. So she is now
out on the circuit and they are paying people. We
know this based on cell phone data. They are paying
people to show up and support her. The reason she
(09:31):
has Bernie Sanders with her. People think that's because he's
the nominee and she's the VP. No, that is not
the way this works. They've got Bernie Sanders there because
Bernie excites young socialists and old socialists for that matter,
because he's been a confirmed socialist for a very long time.
So he's the one there to give you the oomph
or the crazy professor Marxist guy. But she's trying out
(09:56):
some new stuff here. She's got to burnish her image.
So I told you yesterday and we played this audio.
But I think this is important because they're trying to
teach her. They're coaching her. She is This is her tutelage.
She is coming up through the ranks. This is her
playing the honky tonks, and then there'll be the big
venues and then they'll be the stadiums. They're still working
on her act. But make no mistake that's what is happening.
(10:20):
So this is the new accent she's trying on.
Speaker 8 (10:23):
Donald Trump is a criminal who was found guilty of.
Speaker 12 (10:28):
Thirty four felity counts of fraud, liable for sexual abuse.
Speaker 10 (10:38):
Of course he's lying. I'm abusing.
Speaker 13 (10:41):
I'm manipulating the stock market too.
Speaker 8 (10:48):
When he talks about rapists and criminals, he should look
in the mirror.
Speaker 10 (10:55):
This isn't the first time she's tried on an accent.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
I'm proud to be a bartender.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
Ain't nothing wrong with that.
Speaker 8 (11:05):
There's nothing wrong with working retail, folding clothes for other
people to buy.
Speaker 13 (11:11):
There is nothing wrong with.
Speaker 6 (11:13):
Preparing the food that your neighbors will eat. There is
nothing wrong with driving the buses that.
Speaker 10 (11:20):
Take your family to work.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
There is nothing wrong with being a working person in
the United States of America, and there is everything dignified
about it.
Speaker 10 (11:32):
Kind of reminds me of when Hillary Clinton was speaking
of a black church and she tried out her own
Reverend James Cleveland. I don't feel no ways tired.
Speaker 8 (11:42):
I come too far from where I started from.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Nobody told me that the road would be see.
Speaker 13 (11:51):
I don't believe they brought me this far.
Speaker 10 (11:55):
Somewhere up above, Rustling Ball is laughing his ass off
right now because that just makes him cackle. Oh my goodness,
it's one of my all time favorite moments. Play that again.
She's trying so hard and she has no grounding. She
is not a real person. She is just one big
(12:15):
ball of ambition, and she's like.
Speaker 12 (12:18):
Y'all stupid black people. Y'all talk like Ayas said. I
won't talk like a gas because y'all gonna like it
when I talk like gas.
Speaker 10 (12:27):
And I don't.
Speaker 12 (12:27):
Quote Reverend Jane Cleveland because I don't feel no wayte
hired card. I've come too far from where I started from.
Nobody told me at the road would be easy.
Speaker 10 (12:44):
But I don't leave.
Speaker 12 (12:46):
Can I get some help out?
Speaker 10 (12:47):
Die? That he brought it is for? Can I get
some help out die? Te leave man.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
That's all I got to say.
Speaker 12 (12:53):
All the saints a good night and goodbye, and remember
Henlleric Clinton my BRESIDAYE.
Speaker 10 (13:00):
Don't feel no ways tired.
Speaker 8 (13:02):
I come too far from where I started from. Nobody
told me that the road would be zy.
Speaker 13 (13:12):
I don't believe he brought me this far.
Speaker 10 (13:15):
It's but I don't believe you goof learn. Hillary may
have been the most famous example, but nobody did it
more often than Kamala. Harris, Well, first of all, thank
you for the question.
Speaker 13 (13:28):
I hope your family is okay and your home is okay.
Speaker 10 (13:31):
She was on Univision, so she did a slight you know,
she canna accent, you know, like, uh was it Rosie? Uh?
What what's the woman's name? Yeah, Rosie Perez. She did
it so often that is flip accents, that snick link
put together this parody.
Speaker 14 (13:51):
Who needs personality when you can switch who you are?
At the push of a butte, I said, switch last.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
Oh hello, young lady, I to morveless.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Day in it.
Speaker 4 (14:01):
Why does she talk so weird?
Speaker 10 (14:03):
Let me play with her? Well, hey, there, little nugget,
I'm going.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
To be the first black female president of the United
States of America.
Speaker 10 (14:10):
Man, this dong sucks.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
Accent.
Speaker 14 (14:12):
Switch Kamala can emulate any accent you like as long
as it grants her credibility.
Speaker 13 (14:17):
Boo you have in a quator switch come last. Well wait,
there's more, all new accents.
Speaker 14 (14:34):
Switch Kamala comes with two bags of campaign money, a
blind eye for illegal immigration, and her own multi lap
three thousand generators laugh in every way possible accent switch Kamala.
Turn your life into a complete circus.
Speaker 10 (14:54):
When you'll give me more money, like Uncle Joey, don't
you wear a little man?
Speaker 4 (14:58):
The money's coming, don't understand.
Speaker 10 (15:00):
Oh, excuse me, honey, I'm not to say the money
is coming.
Speaker 13 (15:04):
I love ice cream.
Speaker 14 (15:05):
It's accent switch Kamala and brand new tampon tim.
Speaker 13 (15:09):
You know, my grandma always used to say, come on,
like John, please wash your hands so we can eat
our chicken.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
Matala wis.
Speaker 10 (15:20):
The reason they have to keep doing this is because
of identity politics.
Speaker 11 (15:26):
You see.
Speaker 10 (15:27):
They don't offer policies that will be good for the audience.
They offer identity connectivity. Hey, I'm a girl, just like y'all.
Vote for me. Yay, she's a girl.
Speaker 13 (15:41):
She don't have a wiener.
Speaker 10 (15:44):
Hey, I'm black just like you.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
You know I'm black.
Speaker 10 (15:47):
She goes out in Canada. She have Indian. She ain't black. Hey,
I'm Indian just like you. What does she talk as?
You know, it's nothing of India.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
What you doing?
Speaker 10 (15:56):
You've been talking black for so long, everybody. The reason
she was rejected is she doesn't offer policies of opportunity
and vision. She offers Hey, I'm just like you to
everybody out Remember Obama did that, he claimed he was
irin you've got dumb Michael Berry show, ever had a
(16:16):
bad neighbor? You know how troubling this could be. Well,
the fact that Mexico is in effect a bad neighbor
is causing us problems in another way. This story was
on Fox News with Laura Ingram about Navy seals being
transported from Coronado where they train to Oceanside because the
(16:42):
San Diego County supervisor, Jim Demon says, well, let him
tell you or the Navy seals train. Are they able
to swim?
Speaker 4 (16:51):
Well not, they have not been able to.
Speaker 15 (16:54):
And we have Imperial Beach, which is the southernmost city
in San Diego County.
Speaker 10 (16:58):
The beach has been closed there for over three years.
Speaker 15 (17:00):
Cornado it's signed off as far as the closures, but
the seals are being transported. We learned from a retired
Navy seal today that they're being transferred up to ocean Side,
which is about forty five minutes to an hour away,
to get to cleaner water so the seals can train.
So they're not able to train right now into the
cornad All So Mexico.
Speaker 16 (17:19):
Gave us a legal immigrants, they allowed to pass through
drugs fentanyl, lots of death, and now they're giving us
toxic waste. Our military, our special forces are getting infected
with all sorts of terrible illnesses because of this.
Speaker 10 (17:37):
What else are we getting from Mexico. Well, Stuart Varney
and Fox News of Fox Business says that DOGE has
found that US Immigration gave illegal aliens work authorizations while
they waited years for their asylum cases to go to court.
(17:58):
So there's suppose to be here having filed asylum. It's
an abuse of the system. They're not they're not eligible
for asylum. Asylum is you're Jewish during World War II
and you're come to this country to keep from being killed.
They were taught when you get in, you say I'm
seeking asylum, and they go, oh, you're okay, Well let's
put you over here with the other million people. You're
(18:19):
not seeking asylum from Mexico. This was our government actively
working against us.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Doze exposed our immigration asylum disaster. That was the tip
of the iceberg. Now here's the story. Dosh has found
that Immigration gave a work authorization document to illegals just
five months after they filed for asylum. That document allowed
them to work well. They waited to hear whether their
asylum requested being accepted or denied so they could work
(18:48):
as an illegal. Knowing it would take years before the
case was heard, the Immigration Department mailed them a social
Security number. No interview, no proof of identity. You put
it in the mail. Here's your number. In twenty twenty one,
does says two hundred and seventy thousand new aliens were
issued social Security in numbers five hundred and ninety twenty
(19:09):
twenty two, nine hundred and sixty four thousand twenty twenty three,
and two point one million in twenty four right before
Biden left office. Those also discovered that one point three
million aliens are now receiving medicaid. Millions received driver's licenses,
Some registered to vote, and Doe says some actually did vote.
Try and square that against Democrat claims that Musk is
(19:32):
destroying social security and cutting medicaid is not destroying. Is
weeding out people You don't qualify. Who is really guilty
of misinformation in this case, it is not Elon Musk.
Speaker 10 (19:45):
Now, we'd like to believe it was only Democrats who
were doing this It's important to understand that Trump didn't
just run against Democrats, he ran against the swamp. Would
you listen to Bill Crystal? How disturbing this is to hear.
This was the chief of staff to Dan Quill when
he was Vice president. Bill Crystal is part of Republican intelligence.
(20:07):
Here Royalty Bill Crystal. Oh, he's so very smart, so
very clever, good family, Jewish Republicans. This guy has worked
harder against Donald Trump than almost anyone. But just listen
to what he says here. This isn't a Trump issue.
He's advocating for replacing white workers with immigrants. Listen to
(20:32):
be totally honest.
Speaker 17 (20:33):
If things are so bad as you say with the
white working class, don't you want to get new Americans
in who aren't going to be I'm serious. You can
make a case that this is going on too long,
and this is too crazy. Probably, and I hope this
thing isn't being like you know, video tape for ever
shown anywhere. Whatever tiny pathetic future I have is going
to be. You can make a case that America has
(20:54):
has been great because every I think John Adam said
this in the beginning right. Basically, if you're in a
free society, Apolos cyber society. After two, three, four generations
of hard work, everyone becomes kind of decadenced, lazy, spoiled whatever.
Speaker 10 (21:06):
And then you, luckily you have these waves of people.
Speaker 17 (21:09):
Coming in from Italy and Ireland and Russia and now
Mexico who really want to work hard and really want
to succeed, and really want their kids to live better
lize than them and aren't sort of clipping coupons or
hoping that they can hang on. And meanwhile, you know,
we grew.
Speaker 10 (21:23):
Up as spoil kids and so forth. So in that respect,
I don't know why.
Speaker 17 (21:25):
This moment is that different from the early twentieth century.
Speaker 10 (21:29):
Maybe I said, somebody else will chants to ask a
question that of a buddy briefly though, Yeah, see, you
people have become like him, fat and lazy and rich,
and you don't want to work anymore, and so we
have to import your replacement. In two thousand and eight,
running against Barack Obama for President, Hillary Clinton had this
(21:49):
to say of illegal aliens.
Speaker 8 (21:51):
So I think we got to have tough conditions. Tell
people to come out of the shadows. If they've committed
a crime, deport them, no questions asked, them are gone.
Speaker 10 (22:01):
If they.
Speaker 8 (22:04):
If they've been working and are law abiding, we should say,
here are.
Speaker 10 (22:07):
The conditions for you staying.
Speaker 8 (22:09):
You have to pay a stiff fine because you came
here illegally. You have to pay back taxes, and you
have to try to learn English, and you have to
wait in line.
Speaker 10 (22:19):
If they commit a crime, we should deport them. I
will remind you it is a crime to enter the
United States illegally. It's a misdemeanor. If we deport you
and you try to re entry, you re enter. Illegal
reentry is a felony. So yes, deport them because they
(22:42):
have committed that crime. It is that simple, it is.
It's not that complicated. And in the meantime, Barack Obama's
Ivanpah solar electric power plant I hope I'm pronouncing that correctly,
has officially failed and will begin shutting down operations in
(23:04):
early twenty twenty six. So look at the look at
the Look at all the things that have been done
to your country. Illegals allowed in to rape, pillage, take jobs, traffic,
bring fentanyl, sex traffic, commit crimes, steal your cars, make
your city unsafe, overburden your school district, raise your taxes,
(23:26):
give them welfare and among all the other things wasteful,
stupid things of the left, and so wonder they'll ever
win a race again. Was their solar electric power, their
wind power, the stuff that doesn't work. Not in China,
not in India, but in California.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
The Ivypas solar plant well live ten years ago and
was supposed to produce clean power for at least thirty years.
Instead of solar panels, it uses giant mirrors to concentrate
the sun's energy on these towers, which boil water, generating steam,
creating electricity.
Speaker 9 (24:02):
It's going to put about a thousand people to work
building a state of the art facility.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
As part of his climate agenda, President Obama gave Ivan
Paul one point six billion dollars in federal loans, a
five hundred and thirty five million dollar grant, a thirty
percent tax cut at worth about six hundred million, and
an accelerated depreciation schedule that allowed investors to write off
their capital investment in just five years.
Speaker 10 (24:28):
We're there to be changing the name of the Gulf
of Mexico to the Gulf of Mitte Michael Berry, which
has a beautiful way. Let me address an issue that
has been on my mind a while and comes up
rather often, and that is people who claim to be
doing charity who are actually frauds. We've talked a lot
(24:48):
about DOZE and how wonderful the Department of Government Efficiency is.
Elon Musk said the fake NGOs that's a non government
organization involved mostly Democrats with the few Republicans willing to
sell out and join in, and that they are a
giant money laundering scheme. This was Elon on Fox News
(25:09):
with the five I don't know a week or two ago,
you know.
Speaker 7 (25:12):
With respect to the the non governmental organizations, these these
sort of fake ng os, I think there needs to
be a number of arrests in that regard as well,
because these these are these are fake charities, uh where
mostly Democrats and well it's I don't want to feel
sometimes a little bit of a Republican in there, because
they sometimes throw the Republicans a bone to say, hey
(25:33):
be quiet about this. So it's it's it's that's that's
that's where you start getting the uniparty thing going on.
But it is overwhelmingly to Democrats, and they give these
billions of dollars to NGOs run by Democrats that then
go through a whole network of additional uhs's giant money
laundering scheme. Really, at this point, I think uh the
(25:57):
word ngo and money laundering are almost anonymous.
Speaker 10 (26:03):
So these NGOs that were supposed to be doing good work,
and you got USAID which was funding a lot of this,
and it turns out that most of it was activism
or just fraud. So let's move to the next story
in this progression. A man in North Carolina during what
(26:26):
we're called the hands off protest was that last weekend
and the weekend before. I can't keep up with ice people.
He claimed to be there protesting in favor of veterans
and social security, but it turns out he's a former
USAID worker who had been living in Austria.
Speaker 18 (26:48):
So I'm concerned about the cuts to veteran care to
social security. I worked in Eastern Europe and was told
to come home after the president put a ninety day
hold on all four and eight and assistants a couple
of months ago.
Speaker 10 (27:05):
So do you notice that he's really worried about the
veterans and the elderly, and probably the children too, when
in fact he's just feathering his own nest. Running his
own scam living in Austria.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
Off of you.
Speaker 10 (27:27):
It's sickonding and there is so much of this. There
is so much. Le'm gonna tell you something since we're
on the subject. I am often asked to help this
or that charity, and I think that most people who
(27:47):
are doing charity are good people trying to help. A
husband wife team of friends of ours name Scott Davidson
and Andrea. They had a little boy named Chance Davidson
and he died of brain cancer at only twelve years old.
(28:08):
And I knew this sweet little boy and it devastated
their family. They have one other son, and it devastated
this couple. They had everything going right in their world,
living the American dream and lost this little boy. That
devastated him. And the mom found an outlet for her
grief doing good for others, and they created an organization
(28:31):
called Chance for Hope with Chance's name, and they created
a kind of a Houston based Saint Jude. So they
when they started, they just rented apartments for people who
came to Houston for cancer care for their children. Because
while they were going to the hospitals, they noticed these
(28:52):
families they were going through cancer care for their child.
But in the middle of all that, it was raking
them financially. They couldn't afford hotels and for these treatments,
they're constantly coming back and forth, so they were driving
through the night for hours to go through the treatment,
and the kids were just at their wits end. You know,
(29:14):
they're going through cancer treatment as a kid already, and
you're having to ride in the car for four or
five hours a day. So they figured, you know, we
could make a difference and help these people. We'll rent
apartments and we'll do a charity event and we'll pay
for the apartments to be rented. And there was such
an outpouring. Now they do things like these kids would cancer.
(29:36):
Most of them are out of school. They can't they
can't go to school because they're constantly going back and forth,
and so they're homeschooled and they're spending all their time,
you know, under radiation treatment and chemo and all sorts
of stuff. So they do a prom for them because
that's important for a kid, you know, they want they
those sorts of things matter. They're getting a degree of
(29:57):
normalcy out of it. So I contribute it every year
to that organization. I've known them a long time, and
I know the people. They certainly didn't need the money.
They're not wealthy, but they didn't need the money from
this thing. And they pour a lot of their own
money into it. But it's meaningful and it makes a difference.
And so there was an active duty military fellow who
was coming from South Carolina with his daughter a few
(30:19):
weeks ago, and I got a message and said, hey,
if you could help it anyway while they're there, you know,
help find them an apartment somebody that can you know,
they stay there, then we can come in back and
forth and stay in there a lot over the next
six months. He's active duty Air Force. He can't afford
an apartment. So I reached out to Chance and Andrea,
and they said, this is a god thing. We have
(30:41):
an apartment that just popped open because one of the
kids finished their treatment, and we can have the apartment
ready for him in two days. Well he was coming
in three.
Speaker 9 (30:51):
I mean, just.
Speaker 10 (30:53):
That filled a need that made me proud to be
part of it, that made me excited to see all
the emails that came from South Carolina from this family
coming to Houston for MD Anderson treatment or that's a
wonderful thing. That is charity that matters. I've spent We've
(31:14):
raised millions our company in Houston and our show slightly
less than that, but for Saint Jude over the years,
and this is the first year that we're not doing
Saint Jude's golf tournament this fall. But that organization does
incredible work for children with cancer, incredible. I think they
(31:36):
raised a million dollars a day just to.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
Keep the lights on.
Speaker 10 (31:38):
We've been involved with Camp Hope as part of the
PTSD Foundation of America, and that's where my primary contributions
and efforts have gone for the last ten years, saving
veterans with PTSD. I'm very proud of it. We gave
twenty five thousand, which is a lot of money for
our little family. We have a little family foundation. Two
weeks ago to Assist the Officer, which is an organization
(32:02):
that helps police officers in Houston who are wounded but
don't die because, as I was told twenty years ago,
I said, why do you need Assist the Officer? We
have something called the one hundred Club, and if an
officer dies in line of duty, all their debts are
paid off. And he said to me because for officers,
it's better if you die than if you wounded. If
(32:23):
you're wounded, there's nothing there now that one hundred Club
now helps on that as well. But I mean there
are needs, and there are good things being done, but
I think there are probably more people who are running scams.
I'll say this, and it makes people mad. If you
check in to how much money that goes to the
American Red Cross gets donated and how much of that
(32:44):
goes to the people who are supposed to receive it,
I don't think you would like the answer. I don't
think you'd like the answer to the United Way. Now,
it's not very popular for me to say that because
there are a lot of people involved with those organizations
or their wives are who or billionaires and they like
to go.
Speaker 4 (33:02):
To the Gay leven.
Speaker 10 (33:02):
Everybody feels like they've done some good. But how much
money that is donated goes to what it's supposed to
go to, and if it doesn't, then shame on you.
I should call it out. That's my job. My job
is not to be popular. My job is to say
things that other people won't say because they happen to
be true.
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Are you the guys on the beach who hate everything?
Is this some sort of hYP music that I don't understand.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
I just want to say for the record, since we
heard President Trump say in the Oval Office that CNN
hates our country, CNN does not hate our country.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Here's here's a breaking news.
Speaker 5 (00:53):
We live in a racist, sexist, homophobic, islamophobic, anti Semitic country.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Everything they're doing runs again.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
It's making America great. It was never great, so I'm
not gonna say the a gampire, but making America great.
Speaker 6 (01:04):
Taking off the Independence Day weekend, President Trump will be
at Mount Rushmore, where he'll be standing in front of
a monument of two slave owners and on land wrestled
away from Native Americans, told that be focusing on the
effort to quote tear down our country's history.
Speaker 7 (01:48):
They strongly believe, these human smugglers that this is their chance.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
To enter the United State, this is their chance.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
At the American dream.
Speaker 8 (01:56):
That's why they risk everything only to find out that
it's all.
Speaker 9 (02:00):
And when we got our freedom, our quote unquote freedom,
we were never restored whole, which is why you hear
about reparation. So until the United States atones for that
and makes good on that, we're still living in a
racist country.
Speaker 10 (02:24):
The New York Post, in The New York Times, the
Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC. The Democrats constantly tell you the
Trump is the devil because they cannot let him succeed
because if he shows the path to success, and it
is a path that they have rejected, he proves them
(02:44):
wrong and makes them look a fool. This is sort
of like the fellow who abuses his wife, she leaves
him and finds happiness somewhere else, or the husband who's
constantly maligned by his wife. She files for divorce and
he goes on to find happiness. They don't want Trump
(03:09):
to succeed because it is an indictment of them, and indicted,
she will be the Attorney General of the State of
New York. What a mess she's turned out to be.
But first CNN of all people, CNN Harry Inton, I
think the order has gone down. Hey, look guys, we
got to get our viewers back. We have no credibility.
(03:31):
We've got to get some folks who voted for Trump
to come back and watch so they let Scott Jennings
every night put on a masterclass on how to make
liberals look like fools. And they have Harry Inton here
talking about the story that the media keeps telling you
that Trump voters regret their vote. The tariffs are going
to be bad for them, They regret their vote. CNN's
(03:53):
Harry Inton says, not so fast, in a very lead
coursold way. Let's talk about it Trump voters and how
they feel.
Speaker 4 (04:01):
Do they regret their votes?
Speaker 11 (04:03):
I mean, this is the big question, right. I hear
all these stories, all these articles, all the Trump voters
they regret what they did back in twenty twenty four.
I'm here to tell you very few of them regret
what they did back in twenty twenty four.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
What are we.
Speaker 11 (04:17):
Talking about Trump voters looking back at twenty twenty four.
We got a new poll out. The poll was conducted
this month. What percentage would change their vote to a
different candidate.
Speaker 10 (04:25):
We're talking just.
Speaker 11 (04:26):
Two percent, just two percent, that's not even a WIDESPU
on the road. And then there's this additional one percent
who say they would rather not vote. We're talking overall
under five percent might or would have changed their vote
Donald Trump voters back in twenty twenty four. And then
you ask, okay, the same question the Kamala Harris voters,
and it turns out the numbers are rather similar. So
if there was a repeat, if folks got to be
(04:48):
able to redo their vote that they had back in
twenty twenty four, would the result be any different?
Speaker 4 (04:53):
I doubt it would be.
Speaker 11 (04:54):
I doubt it would be, or it would still be
extremely close. The bottom line is, for all this talk
of Trump voters regretting their vote in the numbers, it
really just doesn't show uption soe the stickiness with Trump
voters in President Trump in this presidency, how does it
compare to his first president? Yeah? Okay, so you know,
I was interested in sort of a historical analogy here,
sort of does this look similar or different from back
(05:17):
in twenty seventeen looking at twenty sixteen. Well, in February
of twenty seventeen, four percent four percent of Trump voters
say they'd shift their vote.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
That's actually slightly.
Speaker 11 (05:26):
More than the three percent this time around. So you know,
you look back, you say, okay, there's these Trump voters
who really regret their vote. Historically speaking, they really don't
regret their vote and if anything, the number this time
around is actually smaller than it was the first time around,
and it's certainly smaller than the number we saw coming
out of twenty twenty, of course, after the events of
(05:48):
January sixth.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
So the bottom line.
Speaker 11 (05:50):
Is this, if there's some idea out there that Trump
voters are going around man, I wish I had voted
for Kamala Harrison instead of Donald Trump. The numbers say
that it's a fanciful universe. Really, for the most part,
does not exist.
Speaker 10 (06:04):
Well said, look at the numbers of people who wish
they hadn't voted for Biden who did when they found
out the Hunter laptop story was true. Most of them
weren't aware of it because it was silenced using social
media suppression, and those who did know about it believed
that it was false because they were told it was
false by fifty three intelligence professionals from the Bush, Clinton
(06:27):
and Obama administrations. And they would never lie. And we
learned that we learned it, didn't we that they did.
I will not be addressing the school shooting today. I
realize that some people love to watch car Rex, even
if they say, why do people rubberneck when there's a
car wreck and they rubberneck. It is my steadfast belief
(06:51):
that we have a problem of people craving attention with
mental health problems, and we have a problem with media
using these crises as a way to get more eyeballs
watching the television. That's why they all go long form.
When there's a school shooting, as there was today, it
is the worst of society. It is the worst. You
(07:14):
don't have to cover it. Ninety nine out of one
hundred things that happened in society don't get covered. Try
to do something good, try to raise money for a
good person or a good cause, and you can't get
the story in the news unless it's absolutely a zero
news day. But have one nut job who wants a
(07:35):
lot of attention, who's written a manifesto. Have one trainee
in Nashville or any other place shoot the place up.
The more people they kill, the more attention is paid.
It's a sick society. The sickness doesn't end at the
person pulling the trigger. The sickness ends and the number
of people perpetuating this problem because there will be copycats
of it. Columbine is when it began in Earnest that
(07:58):
got round the claw coverage, and so people with a
sense that nobody was paying attention to them, Nobody cared
about how grandiose their ideas were, nobody cared to give
voice to their ideas. So what do I have to do?
How many people have to kill for you to pay
attention to me? And that's what media is doing and
we won't participate ever, never, ever, never, never ever. The
(08:24):
Michael Daries Joe continues to use to use so AOC
has raised nine point six million dollars in the first
quarter of twenty twenty five. She is the nominee right now.
I believe this. That's not a joke, that's not a
fear for us. She is the nominee. She is bolstered
(08:47):
by powers much greater. If you're caught up in I
don't think she weighing. Is she not very smart? You
don't understand how Joe Biden won. You don't understand that
there are powerful people pulling the levers and paying the
bills to make her the president because she's dumb enough
and moldable like Clay to do what they want. That's
(09:10):
why they wanted Biden. They're just trying to They're going
to control the country they're just trying to figure out
what it'll take for you to vote for them to
control the country behind the scenes. So she is now
out on the circuit and they are paying people. We
know this based on cell phone data. They are paying
people to show up and support her. The reason she
(09:31):
has Bernie Sanders with her. People think that's because he's
the nominee and she's the VP. No, that is not
the way this works. They've got Bernie Sanders there because
Bernie excites young socialists and old socialists for that matter,
because he's been a confirmed socialist for a very long time.
So he's the one there to give you the oomph
or the crazy professor Marxist guy. But she's trying out
(09:56):
some new stuff here. She's got to burnish her image.
So I told you yesterday and we played this audio.
But I think this is important because they're trying to
teach her. They're coaching her. She is This is her tutelage.
She is coming up through the ranks. This is her
playing the honky tonks, and then there'll be the big
venues and then they'll be the stadiums. They're still working
on her act. But make no mistake that's what is happening.
(10:20):
So this is the new accent she's trying on.
Speaker 8 (10:23):
Donald Trump is a criminal who was found guilty of.
Speaker 12 (10:28):
Thirty four felity counts of fraud, liable for sexual abuse.
Speaker 10 (10:38):
Of course he's lying. I'm abusing.
Speaker 13 (10:41):
I'm manipulating the stock market too.
Speaker 8 (10:48):
When he talks about rapists and criminals, he should look
in the mirror.
Speaker 10 (10:55):
This isn't the first time she's tried on an accent.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
I'm proud to be a bartender.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
Ain't nothing wrong with that.
Speaker 8 (11:05):
There's nothing wrong with working retail, folding clothes for other
people to buy.
Speaker 13 (11:11):
There is nothing wrong with.
Speaker 6 (11:13):
Preparing the food that your neighbors will eat. There is
nothing wrong with driving the buses that.
Speaker 10 (11:20):
Take your family to work.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
There is nothing wrong with being a working person in
the United States of America, and there is everything dignified
about it.
Speaker 10 (11:32):
Kind of reminds me of when Hillary Clinton was speaking
of a black church and she tried out her own
Reverend James Cleveland. I don't feel no ways tired.
Speaker 8 (11:42):
I come too far from where I started from.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Nobody told me that the road would be see.
Speaker 13 (11:51):
I don't believe they brought me this far.
Speaker 10 (11:55):
Somewhere up above, Rustling Ball is laughing his ass off
right now because that just makes him cackle. Oh my goodness,
it's one of my all time favorite moments. Play that again.
She's trying so hard and she has no grounding. She
is not a real person. She is just one big
(12:15):
ball of ambition, and she's like.
Speaker 12 (12:18):
Y'all stupid black people. Y'all talk like Ayas said. I
won't talk like a gas because y'all gonna like it
when I talk like gas.
Speaker 10 (12:27):
And I don't.
Speaker 12 (12:27):
Quote Reverend Jane Cleveland because I don't feel no wayte
hired card. I've come too far from where I started from.
Nobody told me at the road would be easy.
Speaker 10 (12:44):
But I don't leave.
Speaker 12 (12:46):
Can I get some help out?
Speaker 10 (12:47):
Die? That he brought it is for? Can I get
some help out die? Te leave man.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
That's all I got to say.
Speaker 12 (12:53):
All the saints a good night and goodbye, and remember
Henlleric Clinton my BRESIDAYE.
Speaker 10 (13:00):
Don't feel no ways tired.
Speaker 8 (13:02):
I come too far from where I started from. Nobody
told me that the road would be zy.
Speaker 13 (13:12):
I don't believe he brought me this far.
Speaker 10 (13:15):
It's but I don't believe you goof learn. Hillary may
have been the most famous example, but nobody did it
more often than Kamala. Harris, Well, first of all, thank
you for the question.
Speaker 13 (13:28):
I hope your family is okay and your home is okay.
Speaker 10 (13:31):
She was on Univision, so she did a slight you know,
she canna accent, you know, like, uh was it Rosie? Uh?
What what's the woman's name? Yeah, Rosie Perez. She did
it so often that is flip accents, that snick link
put together this parody.
Speaker 14 (13:51):
Who needs personality when you can switch who you are?
At the push of a butte, I said, switch last.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
Oh hello, young lady, I to morveless.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Day in it.
Speaker 4 (14:01):
Why does she talk so weird?
Speaker 10 (14:03):
Let me play with her? Well, hey, there, little nugget,
I'm going.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
To be the first black female president of the United
States of America.
Speaker 10 (14:10):
Man, this dong sucks.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
Accent.
Speaker 14 (14:12):
Switch Kamala can emulate any accent you like as long
as it grants her credibility.
Speaker 13 (14:17):
Boo you have in a quator switch come last. Well wait,
there's more, all new accents.
Speaker 14 (14:34):
Switch Kamala comes with two bags of campaign money, a
blind eye for illegal immigration, and her own multi lap
three thousand generators laugh in every way possible accent switch Kamala.
Turn your life into a complete circus.
Speaker 10 (14:54):
When you'll give me more money, like Uncle Joey, don't
you wear a little man?
Speaker 4 (14:58):
The money's coming, don't understand.
Speaker 10 (15:00):
Oh, excuse me, honey, I'm not to say the money
is coming.
Speaker 13 (15:04):
I love ice cream.
Speaker 14 (15:05):
It's accent switch Kamala and brand new tampon tim.
Speaker 13 (15:09):
You know, my grandma always used to say, come on,
like John, please wash your hands so we can eat
our chicken.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
Matala wis.
Speaker 10 (15:20):
The reason they have to keep doing this is because
of identity politics.
Speaker 11 (15:26):
You see.
Speaker 10 (15:27):
They don't offer policies that will be good for the audience.
They offer identity connectivity. Hey, I'm a girl, just like y'all.
Vote for me. Yay, she's a girl.
Speaker 13 (15:41):
She don't have a wiener.
Speaker 10 (15:44):
Hey, I'm black just like you.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
You know I'm black.
Speaker 10 (15:47):
She goes out in Canada. She have Indian. She ain't black. Hey,
I'm Indian just like you. What does she talk as?
You know, it's nothing of India.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
What you doing?
Speaker 10 (15:56):
You've been talking black for so long, everybody. The reason
she was rejected is she doesn't offer policies of opportunity
and vision. She offers Hey, I'm just like you to
everybody out Remember Obama did that, he claimed he was
irin you've got dumb Michael Berry show, ever had a
(16:16):
bad neighbor? You know how troubling this could be. Well,
the fact that Mexico is in effect a bad neighbor
is causing us problems in another way. This story was
on Fox News with Laura Ingram about Navy seals being
transported from Coronado where they train to Oceanside because the
(16:42):
San Diego County supervisor, Jim Demon says, well, let him
tell you or the Navy seals train. Are they able
to swim?
Speaker 4 (16:51):
Well not, they have not been able to.
Speaker 15 (16:54):
And we have Imperial Beach, which is the southernmost city
in San Diego County.
Speaker 10 (16:58):
The beach has been closed there for over three years.
Speaker 15 (17:00):
Cornado it's signed off as far as the closures, but
the seals are being transported. We learned from a retired
Navy seal today that they're being transferred up to ocean Side,
which is about forty five minutes to an hour away,
to get to cleaner water so the seals can train.
So they're not able to train right now into the
cornad All So Mexico.
Speaker 16 (17:19):
Gave us a legal immigrants, they allowed to pass through
drugs fentanyl, lots of death, and now they're giving us
toxic waste. Our military, our special forces are getting infected
with all sorts of terrible illnesses because of this.
Speaker 10 (17:37):
What else are we getting from Mexico. Well, Stuart Varney
and Fox News of Fox Business says that DOGE has
found that US Immigration gave illegal aliens work authorizations while
they waited years for their asylum cases to go to court.
(17:58):
So there's suppose to be here having filed asylum. It's
an abuse of the system. They're not they're not eligible
for asylum. Asylum is you're Jewish during World War II
and you're come to this country to keep from being killed.
They were taught when you get in, you say I'm
seeking asylum, and they go, oh, you're okay, Well let's
put you over here with the other million people. You're
(18:19):
not seeking asylum from Mexico. This was our government actively
working against us.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Doze exposed our immigration asylum disaster. That was the tip
of the iceberg. Now here's the story. Dosh has found
that Immigration gave a work authorization document to illegals just
five months after they filed for asylum. That document allowed
them to work well. They waited to hear whether their
asylum requested being accepted or denied so they could work
(18:48):
as an illegal. Knowing it would take years before the
case was heard, the Immigration Department mailed them a social
Security number. No interview, no proof of identity. You put
it in the mail. Here's your number. In twenty twenty one,
does says two hundred and seventy thousand new aliens were
issued social Security in numbers five hundred and ninety twenty
(19:09):
twenty two, nine hundred and sixty four thousand twenty twenty three,
and two point one million in twenty four right before
Biden left office. Those also discovered that one point three
million aliens are now receiving medicaid. Millions received driver's licenses,
Some registered to vote, and Doe says some actually did vote.
Try and square that against Democrat claims that Musk is
(19:32):
destroying social security and cutting medicaid is not destroying. Is
weeding out people You don't qualify. Who is really guilty
of misinformation in this case, it is not Elon Musk.
Speaker 10 (19:45):
Now, we'd like to believe it was only Democrats who
were doing this It's important to understand that Trump didn't
just run against Democrats, he ran against the swamp. Would
you listen to Bill Crystal? How disturbing this is to hear.
This was the chief of staff to Dan Quill when
he was Vice president. Bill Crystal is part of Republican intelligence.
(20:07):
Here Royalty Bill Crystal. Oh, he's so very smart, so
very clever, good family, Jewish Republicans. This guy has worked
harder against Donald Trump than almost anyone. But just listen
to what he says here. This isn't a Trump issue.
He's advocating for replacing white workers with immigrants. Listen to
(20:32):
be totally honest.
Speaker 17 (20:33):
If things are so bad as you say with the
white working class, don't you want to get new Americans
in who aren't going to be I'm serious. You can
make a case that this is going on too long,
and this is too crazy. Probably, and I hope this
thing isn't being like you know, video tape for ever
shown anywhere. Whatever tiny pathetic future I have is going
to be. You can make a case that America has
(20:54):
has been great because every I think John Adam said
this in the beginning right. Basically, if you're in a
free society, Apolos cyber society. After two, three, four generations
of hard work, everyone becomes kind of decadenced, lazy, spoiled whatever.
Speaker 10 (21:06):
And then you, luckily you have these waves of people.
Speaker 17 (21:09):
Coming in from Italy and Ireland and Russia and now
Mexico who really want to work hard and really want
to succeed, and really want their kids to live better
lize than them and aren't sort of clipping coupons or
hoping that they can hang on. And meanwhile, you know,
we grew.
Speaker 10 (21:23):
Up as spoil kids and so forth. So in that respect,
I don't know why.
Speaker 17 (21:25):
This moment is that different from the early twentieth century.
Speaker 10 (21:29):
Maybe I said, somebody else will chants to ask a
question that of a buddy briefly though, Yeah, see, you
people have become like him, fat and lazy and rich,
and you don't want to work anymore, and so we
have to import your replacement. In two thousand and eight,
running against Barack Obama for President, Hillary Clinton had this
(21:49):
to say of illegal aliens.
Speaker 8 (21:51):
So I think we got to have tough conditions. Tell
people to come out of the shadows. If they've committed
a crime, deport them, no questions asked, them are gone.
Speaker 10 (22:01):
If they.
Speaker 8 (22:04):
If they've been working and are law abiding, we should say,
here are.
Speaker 10 (22:07):
The conditions for you staying.
Speaker 8 (22:09):
You have to pay a stiff fine because you came
here illegally. You have to pay back taxes, and you
have to try to learn English, and you have to
wait in line.
Speaker 10 (22:19):
If they commit a crime, we should deport them. I
will remind you it is a crime to enter the
United States illegally. It's a misdemeanor. If we deport you
and you try to re entry, you re enter. Illegal
reentry is a felony. So yes, deport them because they
(22:42):
have committed that crime. It is that simple, it is.
It's not that complicated. And in the meantime, Barack Obama's
Ivanpah solar electric power plant I hope I'm pronouncing that correctly,
has officially failed and will begin shutting down operations in
(23:04):
early twenty twenty six. So look at the look at
the Look at all the things that have been done
to your country. Illegals allowed in to rape, pillage, take jobs, traffic,
bring fentanyl, sex traffic, commit crimes, steal your cars, make
your city unsafe, overburden your school district, raise your taxes,
(23:26):
give them welfare and among all the other things wasteful,
stupid things of the left, and so wonder they'll ever
win a race again. Was their solar electric power, their
wind power, the stuff that doesn't work. Not in China,
not in India, but in California.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
The Ivypas solar plant well live ten years ago and
was supposed to produce clean power for at least thirty years.
Instead of solar panels, it uses giant mirrors to concentrate
the sun's energy on these towers, which boil water, generating steam,
creating electricity.
Speaker 9 (24:02):
It's going to put about a thousand people to work
building a state of the art facility.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
As part of his climate agenda, President Obama gave Ivan
Paul one point six billion dollars in federal loans, a
five hundred and thirty five million dollar grant, a thirty
percent tax cut at worth about six hundred million, and
an accelerated depreciation schedule that allowed investors to write off
their capital investment in just five years.
Speaker 10 (24:28):
We're there to be changing the name of the Gulf
of Mexico to the Gulf of Mitte Michael Berry, which
has a beautiful way. Let me address an issue that
has been on my mind a while and comes up
rather often, and that is people who claim to be
doing charity who are actually frauds. We've talked a lot
(24:48):
about DOZE and how wonderful the Department of Government Efficiency is.
Elon Musk said the fake NGOs that's a non government
organization involved mostly Democrats with the few Republicans willing to
sell out and join in, and that they are a
giant money laundering scheme. This was Elon on Fox News
(25:09):
with the five I don't know a week or two ago,
you know.
Speaker 7 (25:12):
With respect to the the non governmental organizations, these these
sort of fake ng os, I think there needs to
be a number of arrests in that regard as well,
because these these are these are fake charities, uh where
mostly Democrats and well it's I don't want to feel
sometimes a little bit of a Republican in there, because
they sometimes throw the Republicans a bone to say, hey
(25:33):
be quiet about this. So it's it's it's that's that's
that's where you start getting the uniparty thing going on.
But it is overwhelmingly to Democrats, and they give these
billions of dollars to NGOs run by Democrats that then
go through a whole network of additional uhs's giant money
laundering scheme. Really, at this point, I think uh the
(25:57):
word ngo and money laundering are almost anonymous.
Speaker 10 (26:03):
So these NGOs that were supposed to be doing good work,
and you got USAID which was funding a lot of this,
and it turns out that most of it was activism
or just fraud. So let's move to the next story
in this progression. A man in North Carolina during what
(26:26):
we're called the hands off protest was that last weekend
and the weekend before. I can't keep up with ice people.
He claimed to be there protesting in favor of veterans
and social security, but it turns out he's a former
USAID worker who had been living in Austria.
Speaker 18 (26:48):
So I'm concerned about the cuts to veteran care to
social security. I worked in Eastern Europe and was told
to come home after the president put a ninety day
hold on all four and eight and assistants a couple
of months ago.
Speaker 10 (27:05):
So do you notice that he's really worried about the
veterans and the elderly, and probably the children too, when
in fact he's just feathering his own nest. Running his
own scam living in Austria.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
Off of you.
Speaker 10 (27:27):
It's sickonding and there is so much of this. There
is so much. Le'm gonna tell you something since we're
on the subject. I am often asked to help this
or that charity, and I think that most people who
(27:47):
are doing charity are good people trying to help. A
husband wife team of friends of ours name Scott Davidson
and Andrea. They had a little boy named Chance Davidson
and he died of brain cancer at only twelve years old.
(28:08):
And I knew this sweet little boy and it devastated
their family. They have one other son, and it devastated
this couple. They had everything going right in their world,
living the American dream and lost this little boy. That
devastated him. And the mom found an outlet for her
grief doing good for others, and they created an organization
(28:31):
called Chance for Hope with Chance's name, and they created
a kind of a Houston based Saint Jude. So they
when they started, they just rented apartments for people who
came to Houston for cancer care for their children. Because
while they were going to the hospitals, they noticed these
(28:52):
families they were going through cancer care for their child.
But in the middle of all that, it was raking
them financially. They couldn't afford hotels and for these treatments,
they're constantly coming back and forth, so they were driving
through the night for hours to go through the treatment,
and the kids were just at their wits end. You know,
(29:14):
they're going through cancer treatment as a kid already, and
you're having to ride in the car for four or
five hours a day. So they figured, you know, we
could make a difference and help these people. We'll rent
apartments and we'll do a charity event and we'll pay
for the apartments to be rented. And there was such
an outpouring. Now they do things like these kids would cancer.
(29:36):
Most of them are out of school. They can't they
can't go to school because they're constantly going back and forth,
and so they're homeschooled and they're spending all their time,
you know, under radiation treatment and chemo and all sorts
of stuff. So they do a prom for them because
that's important for a kid, you know, they want they
those sorts of things matter. They're getting a degree of
(29:57):
normalcy out of it. So I contribute it every year
to that organization. I've known them a long time, and
I know the people. They certainly didn't need the money.
They're not wealthy, but they didn't need the money from
this thing. And they pour a lot of their own
money into it. But it's meaningful and it makes a difference.
And so there was an active duty military fellow who
was coming from South Carolina with his daughter a few
(30:19):
weeks ago, and I got a message and said, hey,
if you could help it anyway while they're there, you know,
help find them an apartment somebody that can you know,
they stay there, then we can come in back and
forth and stay in there a lot over the next
six months. He's active duty Air Force. He can't afford
an apartment. So I reached out to Chance and Andrea,
and they said, this is a god thing. We have
(30:41):
an apartment that just popped open because one of the
kids finished their treatment, and we can have the apartment
ready for him in two days. Well he was coming
in three.
Speaker 9 (30:51):
I mean, just.
Speaker 10 (30:53):
That filled a need that made me proud to be
part of it, that made me excited to see all
the emails that came from South Carolina from this family
coming to Houston for MD Anderson treatment or that's a
wonderful thing. That is charity that matters. I've spent We've
(31:14):
raised millions our company in Houston and our show slightly
less than that, but for Saint Jude over the years,
and this is the first year that we're not doing
Saint Jude's golf tournament this fall. But that organization does
incredible work for children with cancer, incredible. I think they
(31:36):
raised a million dollars a day just to.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
Keep the lights on.
Speaker 10 (31:38):
We've been involved with Camp Hope as part of the
PTSD Foundation of America, and that's where my primary contributions
and efforts have gone for the last ten years, saving
veterans with PTSD. I'm very proud of it. We gave
twenty five thousand, which is a lot of money for
our little family. We have a little family foundation. Two
weeks ago to Assist the Officer, which is an organization
(32:02):
that helps police officers in Houston who are wounded but
don't die because, as I was told twenty years ago,
I said, why do you need Assist the Officer? We
have something called the one hundred Club, and if an
officer dies in line of duty, all their debts are
paid off. And he said to me because for officers,
it's better if you die than if you wounded. If
(32:23):
you're wounded, there's nothing there now that one hundred Club
now helps on that as well. But I mean there
are needs, and there are good things being done, but
I think there are probably more people who are running scams.
I'll say this, and it makes people mad. If you
check in to how much money that goes to the
American Red Cross gets donated and how much of that
(32:44):
goes to the people who are supposed to receive it,
I don't think you would like the answer. I don't
think you'd like the answer to the United Way. Now,
it's not very popular for me to say that because
there are a lot of people involved with those organizations
or their wives are who or billionaires and they like
to go.
Speaker 4 (33:02):
To the Gay leven.
Speaker 10 (33:02):
Everybody feels like they've done some good. But how much
money that is donated goes to what it's supposed to
go to, and if it doesn't, then shame on you.
I should call it out. That's my job. My job
is not to be popular. My job is to say
things that other people won't say because they happen to
be true.
