Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time time, time, time, luck and load. So
Michael darry Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Before we begin, I want to send our prayers to
the people of Florida getting hit just about now. In
a little while, you're going to see a hurricane like
we haven't seen in a long time, as well as
all of the people still recovering from Hurricane Helene. So
we have North Carolina, it's been hit very hard, and
(00:35):
we're going to be there, hopefully soon, and we're going
to help them rebuild and get it all back together,
and we hope that God will keep them safe.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Here comes a story of the hurricane.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
Mister President does come to Sandersen to take Vice President
Harris's calls.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
All I can tell you is I'm talking to Governor Santas.
He's been very gracious. She's thank me for all we've done.
He knows what we're doing, and I think that'sing for it.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Well. First of all, I have called and talked with
in the course of this crisis, this most recent crisis,
Democrat and Republican governors called, taken the call, answered the call,
had a conversation. So obviously this is not an issue
that is about partisanship. Or politics for certain leaders, but
(01:24):
maybe is for others.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Here's the story of the Kane.
Speaker 5 (01:29):
The fact of the matter is she has no role
in this process. She's not part of the chain of command.
I am working with President Biden and FEMA and our
state and local partners, and we're getting the job done to.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
The people of Florida and in particular the people of
the Tampa Resi region. We urge you to take this
storm series.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
New polls. Lets have President Trump up in Wisconsin, up
in Michigan. This was something the Harris campaign could not
have happened. Michigan was technically a swing state. The fact
(02:20):
that they are down to Trump in Michigan is a
real problem for them. Pennsylvania, depending on the poll, it
has Trump up a couple of percentage points, several have
it tied, and some have Harris up by a couple
of percentage points. Arizona seems to be running away for Trump.
(02:44):
The same with Georgia. However, what we know from twenty
sixteen and twenty twenty with Donald Trump, this is the
third time he's running for president. We've not seen this
in the modern era. We've not seen this since FDR
and his four elections. Reagan, of course ran in seventy six,
(03:09):
but he didn't win the nomination. Donald Trump has effectively
been the Republican nominee or president since you could say,
early twenty sixteen. Now he doesn't win Iowa that year,
(03:30):
but after Iowa he begins to pull away. This is
a very long time to maintain this level of popularity
for any political leader in a democratic republic, but particularly
when what has been unleashed against him has been so vicious,
(03:51):
so ugly, so deranged, and untrue, so petty in the
court system, in the media, by the day Democrats, and
of course at the end of a barrel of a gun,
do you even remember the name of the assassin who
shot him in the head and killed Corey? Comparatory? Odd,
(04:12):
isn't It was July thirteenth? How did we forget so fast?
But of course we know who shot Bobby Kennedy, Sir Hen,
Sir Hen. We know who may have shot John F. Kennedy.
We know who shot John Lennon, We know who shot
(04:32):
Ronald Reagan. It wasn't JR. You, oh, we know who
shot JR.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Yeah, But that we had to in fairness, we had
to wait on that. Do you remember who it was?
You don't see you thought it was? Was it Pamela? No? No, no?
What was his wife's name?
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Man, I can't believe. I can't remember this. I'm not
proud of this. But as you know, Johnny Lee was
married to Charlene Tilton at one point. Kind of a
douche mood move, but dudes will understand it. I asked
him some questions about that, and we'll leave it there.
I did. But but without fail, every one of my
(05:13):
friends who first spends time with Dan Pastorini, Danny with
Dante Pastorini, will ask him about Farah Fawcett. And fellas
know what we mean by asking him about Pharah Fawcett.
But that one's understandable. You had her pin up on
the wall. Let me just peel back the curtain a
little bit. We got to know, you know what I mean.
Gotta know. I'm not sure how we got off on this,
(05:34):
other than to say this. Trump has outperformed the polls consistently.
Even in twenty twenty when they claim he lost, he didn't.
When we went to bed, he was winning. They shut
all the voting down and we woke up the next
morning and boof, they had enough votes to beat him.
Who could have known? And the details continue to emerge
(05:56):
and you know it. But one one thing we know
is that Trump always outperforms the poll. If the race
is fifty to fifty in a state, he's winning fifty
three forty seven. And there's a reason for that. The
reason is people who vote for him and are scared
(06:21):
to tell anyone they don't know if they'll be targeted.
There's no fear in saying you're gonna vote for Kamala Harris.
There is fear in saying you're gonna vote for Donald Trump.
And January sixth was in furtherance of that mindset. That's
what you're supposed to believe, that there is a there
(06:44):
is a danger to that. I gotta tell you a
story in furtherance of a point, and that is it
when we go to break do something real quick, real
nice for somebody. We were headed out to wall Or
to deliver the thirty thousand dollars to Scott Durphy, the
officer who was shot a few days ago, and ray Hunt,
(07:07):
the head of the police officers union, said I'll drive you.
We can catch up on the ride and chance McLean
met us out there and remind me to come back
to this point. Rumon, let me first tell that, and
then I'll tell you the Ray Hunt story. We were
(07:28):
going to go on to Brenham because there was a
little house I was going to look at out there.
But the whole thing was predicated on that I would
get to pop in on one of my favorite new
cigar shops, which is a place called Brown Water Cigars,
And so I had the whole thing planned out. Ray
(07:49):
was swinging by popping up in afternoon. We're going to
get up there. Then we were meeting Chance at the
BUCkies and Waller and we would go is it Auster
Durfy bringing the check? Ray would shoot back to the office.
He had a mid afternoon meeting Chance, and I would
carry on to Brenham, pop in to the cigar shop,
(08:13):
say hello to the owner, Randy Bayer, I think is
his name. Check out this place because it's right off
the highway. Be back in time. Well, I didn't know.
Today's a big day for the Tesla folks. I forget
what it is, but I didn't know the Tesla self
driving went active a week ago. We rode the I'm
(08:35):
not a Tesla guy, don't worry. I'm not going over
to the other side. But I'm going to tell you the
self driving was pretty cool. And I'm the guy who
poo poos everything Tesla. We just sat there while that
thing drove itself. That was weird, all right, I'll tell you,
Ray Huns, we can on anybody to come to the economy.
Do you believe Americans are better off that they were
four years ago?
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Michael Barry So. I was raised as a middle test it.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
I know you, God, that's what I want to do.
When those people pull out, and don't wait, stay humbling
kind up there. I let you in that traffic. Stay horbling,
God to acrawl.
Speaker 6 (09:16):
When your last let's just see the proud always stay.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Excuse me, excuse me what I just held the door
open for you. Lady, Okay, be humble and kind and
thank me ungrateful? What are you a teenager?
Speaker 6 (09:45):
And you know the difference between sleeping with someone and
sleeping with someone you.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Will come back to humbling kind? Do you say humble
or humble? You say humble? No, you don't. You say
he's an humble man only for the city, but otherwise
some people do that. It feels like you're trying too hard.
You know people that do that. I feel like that's
trying too hard. You say what you say, humble, oh,
(10:21):
just to give it a little flair. I like that.
I like where you're going with that. All right, keep
humbling kind on your button bar. We're gonna come back
to that, Okay. So you folks, I said, I'll put
up twenty five hundred, will y'all help me get to
ten for this officer just got shot. He's got a
wife and kids.
Speaker 4 (10:41):
And.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Y'all be in y'all. You couldn't couldn't do that, No,
you had to doubt do yourself. So it ended up
as thirty the uh the Texas Association of First Responders
or listeners. They came with twenty five hundred, and then
a bunch of you. It's always the same folks that
(11:04):
started Connie and Russell, but a lot of you, and
some of you it was twenty bucks, some of you
was fifty, some of you was one hundred. As you could,
you did as you always do. You're amazing. And so
it was time to go deliver the check to him
and his family, and so we drive out there. Lives
(11:31):
in Waller lives on a family property that has been
in their family. It was one of those deals where
I like country people and I like older people. When
they're married, how they'll correct each other. But Ray Hunt,
who had driven me out there, He says, Michael, this
(11:55):
property has been in their family since eighteen sixty two,
and the officer's mother in law says, no, eighteen sixty three.
I said, Ray, don't exaggerate, it's not that old. That's
(12:15):
about my level of humor. I'd kill at the Bengo Hall.
So they have within I don't know, some a mile
whatever the difficult distance they have on the original homestead,
one hundred and ten family members and they have something
(12:38):
like nine hundred relatives in the county. I'm gonna get
the numbers wrong. But it was amazing. It felt like
little house on the prairie. I thought Michael Landon was
going to come around the corner at any moment. I
thought that somebody is over in the corner writing a
Luisa may al Cott novel about this thing. So when
(13:01):
we pull up, there's no signs anywhere. There's no you're
not intending to be found. They know if companies coming,
they know where you are. So you turn off the
main road onto a side road. You go for a
while and there's nothing there. You turn off the side
road onto a red dirt road, and the red dirt
(13:23):
road has a marker up there. I'm not going to
tell what it is because these people are in privacy,
but out in the country you always have like an
old fifty two Chevy or you know, old combine, old
cotton baler. There's always something up there that's your marker,
and that's why it's there. It's rusted out anyway. Sometimes
(13:45):
you might put a seasonal decoration on it, like right now,
there might be a you know, a fall an autumnal decoration.
So you go down the red dirt road from there.
So we've been at this for a little while. Up
and there there's a house. The family's out in the
(14:05):
yard and there's a little boy. And you know, when
you're out in the country and people are coming to
visit and you're fired up just a little. Well, I
don't know how it is. I'm gonna say he's somewhere
between six and nine. I'm gonna put him at eight.
He's waiting near the gate, and he sprints up to
(14:27):
the gate barefoot, never thee mind. There's cockle burrs and
everything else. He can't feeling sore as you're rolling up
like that. It's like pigpin and peanuts, you know, dust
going everywhere. It's red dirt road. We go, pulling up
to the front of the gate. There's not a marked
parking spot per se. So Ray, having spent a lot
(14:48):
of time in the country himself, you just pull up
and stop where the hell you want. And I love it.
It smells like eighteen seventy. It feels like eighteen seventy.
It feels pure and natural and clean and wondrous, and
I love it. So we hop out of the truck
(15:12):
and the little fella I thought his name was Daniel,
but Ray says I was wrong. But I'm gonna go
with Daniel because that's what I remember. So he because
the latch to the gate is up high, he has
to cross, he has to climb the fence to get there.
So he climbs up on the fence and got something
(15:32):
in his arms caused him to wobble. He rips the
chain link, the chain off there, and he proceeds to
open it up. He is the front sentry. He is
keeping watch brings usin. He's got a chicken in his hand,
and I don't mean a chick, He's got a big
old chicken named Nugget. And it just felt so wholesome
(15:55):
the whole thing. Well, as that little boy came out,
I don't even remember saying this, but Ray and Chance said,
I said this because it's all I could think was
can you imagine that officer being killed and somebody having
to pull up to tell him? And Ray he got
(16:17):
a lump in his throat, and Chance said, Michael, I said,
that's what I think about. That's how this goes. Anyway,
the family was so grateful. They were just wonderful, salt
of the earth, decent people. The mother homeschools their kids
three days a week and then they go to a
Second Baptist has a church out there. They go to
(16:38):
the church. Second Baptists has started this hybrid homeschooling thing.
So anyway, I'll tell you about the self driving later.
But as we were going up there, Ray tells me
a story, and that is that a sweet couple was
a couple of streets over. Their parents moved in next
door to Ray, and their names are Lawanna and Wayne,
(16:58):
nice older couple, and Ray is very regimented fellow. Every
morning he gets up, goes out to he picks up
their paper and brings it and puts it on their
front porch so they don't have to walk out and
have the sprinklers hit them and all that. But he
never tells me he does it. So one morning a
couple of days ago, early in the morning, as he's
(17:18):
getting up to go out six o'clock in the morning,
that's the last thing he does, and all of a
sudden he hears over his shoulders, so it's you, and it
spooked him in a turn. And the little old lady said,
I wonder who. I wondered who was putting their paper there?
And so I got up early to see it. Thank
you so much. So that's your command, do something nice
for somebody.
Speaker 4 (17:37):
Today, and I thank you.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
I received an email from the woman who said that
her elderly mother had cataract surgery and it didn't go well,
so they brought her to live with them, her and
her husband, and she's almost blind. She wants to vote.
(18:05):
She wants to vote for Trump. She asked me, is
there some assistance that is provided or how does that work?
So I reached out to Rachel Palmer Hooper, who is
the general counsel of the State Republican Party and one
of the smartest people I've ever talked to in my life,
(18:25):
and she said, quote, it's just for those of you
who have a person who might need assistance voting in
your life. In Texas, a voter may receive in marking
or reading the ballot if the voter cannot prepare or
read the ballot because of one a physical disability that
(18:48):
renders the voter unable to write or see, or two
and inability to read the language in which the ballot
is written. On a the voter's request for assistance in
marking the ballot, the voter may be assisted by either
two election officers from different political parties unless there are
(19:10):
not two or more election officers serving, or any person
selected by the voter other than the voter's employer, agent
of the voter's employer, or an officer or agent of
a labor union to which the voter belongs. A voter
assistant must complete a form acknowledging their assistance. Assisting a
(19:34):
voter includes number one reading the ballot to the voter,
Number two directing the voter to read the ballot. Number
three marking the voter's ballot, or number four directing the
voter to mark the ballot. If a voter is assisted
by election officers, one of them shall read the entire
(19:56):
ballot to the voter, unless the voter tells the officer
that the voter desires to vote only on certain offices
or measures. In that case, the officer shall read those
items on the ballot specified by the voter. If a
voter is assisted by a person of the voter's choice,
an election officer shall ask the voter being assisted whether
(20:19):
the voter wants the entire ballot read to the voter.
If so, the officer shall instruct the person assisting the
voter to read the entire ballot to the voter. It
is a crime to knowingly one provide assistance to a
voter who is not eligible for assistance. Number two, while
(20:43):
assisting a voter, prepare the voter's ballot in a way
other than the way the voter directs, or without direction
from the voter. Number three while assisting a voter, suggests
by words, sign, or gesture how the voter should vote.
Or Number four, provide assistance to a voter who has
not requested assistance or selected the person to assist the voter.
(21:08):
It is a crime for an election officer to knowingly
permit a person to provide assistance to a voter who
is not eligible for assistance. If assistance is provided to
a voter who is not eligible for assistance, the voter's
ballot may not be counted. That is the law. But
just so you know, you can cheat all you want,
(21:33):
as often as you want, because Greg Abbott and his
Secretary of State Jane Nelson will not do a thing
about it. And that is a fact. Whatever you may
think of my criticisms of Greg Abbot, that is a fact. Example,
in twenty twenty, we had voting irregularities in Harris County,
(21:56):
a lot of them. So the state legislature, as they
always says, huh, we didn't think about the fact that
they had cheat. So we're gonna have some laws that'll
keep them from cheating. We're always coming back afterwards. We're
gonna have laws they can't cheat, all right, So that
they can't cheat. Law goes like this, We will audit
(22:20):
four counties in the state. One of them has to
be a major county. So the major county that was
by luck of the draw chosen was Harris County for
the twenty twenty two election. Well, guess what happened the
twenty twenty two election is when they cheated worse than
(22:42):
they've ever cheated to get Lena Hidalgo elected. Remember, they
had chas Bono first, and even the Democrats wanted chas
Bono out because he was cheating in the Democrat primary.
Because Rodney doesn't just want to win in November. He
wants to win the primary too. He wants his Democrats.
He didn't just want the Democrat to beat the Republican
for district attorney. He wants to own the Democrat. And
(23:04):
he couldn't own Kim Ogg, but he could own Shawn
Tyr And so he and George Soro's team up. They
kicked Og out of the primary. Well, when the primary
in twenty twenty two had all of these we'll call
them irregularities, Oh Chaz, she was allowed to stay around
long enough so that she could she could get Longoria
was her names all right, so she could get her
(23:26):
full retirement. They kept her a couple of months because
we want to make sure we soaked the taxpayers for
as much money as possible, and they bring in Clifford Tatum.
Clifford Tatum is an assassin. This guy comes in to
rig this election, and he is a low down, dirty bastard.
But God blessed the fact that he takes his mission seriously.
(23:50):
We could handle. We could stand a few Republicans on
the side on our side of the eye. We just
sit around and clut and say, look what they're doing
while they do it. Clifford Tatum is the one doing
it while our people sit around on what are they doing?
So we're supposed to have an audit on twenty twenty
two on that election. Well we got him. Now, we
(24:11):
did a stakeout on the house that they chose to
rob on the night they chose to rob them. Boom,
we got them dead to rights. It's two years later,
where's our audit. The Secretary of State is appointed by
the governor. She serves at his discretion. She's a former
(24:33):
senator named Jane Nelson. Think the kind of people that
would vote for that would support Nicky Haley. Think the
kind of Republicans that's what? Well, now this week the
Secretary of State has declared that non citizen id can
be used to vote. Greg Abbott is allowing illegal aliens
(24:54):
to vote in the state of Texas. And don't let
him lie and tell you he's not but back he's
our god. No he's not. Well, he's their guy, trust me.
I just woke then left woke. Lord. I don't know
how your day is going, but here's how mine's going,
(25:18):
Ramon said across the glass.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Zar.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
It really doesn't matter because Howard Hughes doesn't like to
see other people, so nobody but me's gonna know all day.
But I thought I should tell you got a big
clump of something in your hair. So I went to
the bathroom, ever fearful. This was some sort of practical joke,
and I ran my hand through my hair, and yeah,
(25:46):
there's some goop in my hair, and I'm certain it's
toothpaste and it's a big old clump of it. And
I'm such a goober. I start thinking, wonder how you
did that? I better have a very clean scalp minty hunh.
(26:08):
It was very July Augustus of me. So I'm sitting
there thinking, and I better hurry because we're going to
be back on the air. But wonder how I did
that that must be what it's like to get really old.
Stuff just shows up in places and you have no
idea what what I don't I'm old. I don't know,
so as drives my wife crazy. Everything has to be smelled,
(26:34):
so I give it a smell and I realize it's
not toothpaste, it's just shampoo. And then I remembered what happened.
The shampoo had a clump in it. You know how,
it'll get a clump at the right when you pump it.
(26:55):
And I enjoy that clump because you get to mix
that clump, you get to break it down. And I
didn't break it down. I was running late, so the
clump must have ended up in my head and it
didn't get washed out. So that's how my day is going.
A friend, a friend went in for pancreatic cancer surgery
(27:20):
two days ago, and I got a message from my
I got a message yesterday from his wife, who I've
never spoken to, said, this is SO and So's wife,
and we were expecting an eight hour surgery for the
pancreatic cancer. We're hoping for the best. Unfortunately, when they
(27:43):
got in there, they discovered stage four liver cancer. Now
we're seeking alternative treatments and medicines, and I sent back well,
as luck would have it. I have a friend who
(28:07):
the director of sells in his business, a young man.
I mean, at most he's forty five, he could be
thirty eight. He's a young man with relatively young kids,
beautiful marriage, and as fit as you can be. I mean,
if you saw him, you think he's as healthy as
he could be. He got the cancer, and then the
(28:33):
more studies they did, they gave him two years and
that is not I mean, that's hard to process at
that age. So he's going to go to Mexico. And
as all of you have, I've had friends and people,
(28:54):
I know that you know when it's the end, you'll
try anything, and there's nothing wrong with that. I don't
need high odds. I'll take any odds at that point
if you're trying to survive because you got kids. So
he goes to Mexico and all I'm thinking in the
back of my mind is some scammer down there is
selling snake oil like the Democrats, and this is terrible.
(29:18):
So he goes for his first treatment, gomes back, goes
for his second treatment, come back to his third treatment,
We're three months into this lo and behold, the cancer
is shrinking. And now I don't think he's completely cancer
free yet, but I think he's pretty close. He came
back to the doctors here and they said something has happened,
(29:41):
a miracle or something, but your cancer is almost completely gone.
We never see this. And he said, well, I went
down to this clinic in Mexico and they tried something else,
and the doctor there has a whole theory on how
American medicine is wrong. And I'm not a person who
believes every alternative treatment. I think a lot of them
are scammart, but I think some do work. So anyway,
(30:03):
I have connected the two of them. That was just
what I was thinking. There's really no point to that story.
And my friend, who's director of sales, has the cancer.
I called him to make sure I had his guy's
number correctly and all the details right, so I didn't
pass up my own. And I said, what are you doing?
(30:24):
And he said, I'm getting ready for my hunting trip
where you go in New Mexico to hunt bear. And
I thought, you know, Ramon, you and I are the
only two people who show up every single day. Everybody
else calls out sick, goes on hunting trips, goes on
golfing trips, goes on fishing trips. I'm not saying we
(30:44):
deserve a medal, but we kind of deserve a medal,
is what I'm I guess what I'm saying at this point.
What what or a hunting trip? Yeah? Yeah, A maleman
in north East Oh. I don't have time to do
that story. I'll tell you the HEADLINEA male man in
northeast Harris County is accused of stealing millions of dollars
(31:07):
in checks, leading a male theft ring with several others.
One co conspirator posed with stacks of cash. He got
through the fraud on social media. He's a white guy.
I'm just kidding. No, he's not. Houston Tents and Events owner.
They were one of the fast fifty will be our
(31:28):
guest coming up And after that Ramon had a goofy idea.
But I kind of like it. With the election upon us,
Trump was at an event the other day and there
was a group there to support him called Gaze for
Trump's Gays for Trump, not Gays for Trump's Gays for Trump,
(31:50):
And in the middle of his speech, you know he
doesn't bring notes in with him. He speaks from the cuff.
He says, I thought, Gaze for Trump we're going to
be here. And then this guy over to the side says.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
Over here, over here, deep boys, cowboy hat over here,
and he looks and he goes, you don't look gay,
and everyone fell out laughter.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
The guy said. They asked the guy, you know, I
love Trump. We love everything about him. So Ramone said,
why don't we have some Gaze for Trump call up
and tell why they're voting for Trump. We've done this
with other groups, And I said, because we don't do
identity politics. For a moment, I was just kidding. I said, yes,
(32:34):
it's great idea. So before we do that, we're gonna
have Houston Tenson events at nine at nine thirty, Scott Presler,
who is an openly gay dude who travels the country
registering voters, is in Pennsylvania doing amazing work. Trump brings
him up on stage. Now it's incredible story. He got
better hair than Crystal Gale. But after that, and so
(32:56):
I told this the other day, I said, we're gonna
do a segment with Gaye for Trump. And I have
had several homots email me and say, hey, if you
want me to come on and tell why I'm for Trump,
I would be glad to do it. And how cool
is that? And if you don't want the gaze for
Trump voters, then you don't want to win. I want
to save my country
It's that time time, time, time, luck and load. So
Michael darry Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Before we begin, I want to send our prayers to
the people of Florida getting hit just about now. In
a little while, you're going to see a hurricane like
we haven't seen in a long time, as well as
all of the people still recovering from Hurricane Helene. So
we have North Carolina, it's been hit very hard, and
(00:35):
we're going to be there, hopefully soon, and we're going
to help them rebuild and get it all back together,
and we hope that God will keep them safe.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Here comes a story of the hurricane.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
Mister President does come to Sandersen to take Vice President
Harris's calls.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
All I can tell you is I'm talking to Governor Santas.
He's been very gracious. She's thank me for all we've done.
He knows what we're doing, and I think that'sing for it.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Well. First of all, I have called and talked with
in the course of this crisis, this most recent crisis,
Democrat and Republican governors called, taken the call, answered the call,
had a conversation. So obviously this is not an issue
that is about partisanship. Or politics for certain leaders, but
(01:24):
maybe is for others.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Here's the story of the Kane.
Speaker 5 (01:29):
The fact of the matter is she has no role
in this process. She's not part of the chain of command.
I am working with President Biden and FEMA and our
state and local partners, and we're getting the job done to.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
The people of Florida and in particular the people of
the Tampa Resi region. We urge you to take this
storm series.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
New polls. Lets have President Trump up in Wisconsin, up
in Michigan. This was something the Harris campaign could not
have happened. Michigan was technically a swing state. The fact
(02:20):
that they are down to Trump in Michigan is a
real problem for them. Pennsylvania, depending on the poll, it
has Trump up a couple of percentage points, several have
it tied, and some have Harris up by a couple
of percentage points. Arizona seems to be running away for Trump.
(02:44):
The same with Georgia. However, what we know from twenty
sixteen and twenty twenty with Donald Trump, this is the
third time he's running for president. We've not seen this
in the modern era. We've not seen this since FDR
and his four elections. Reagan, of course ran in seventy six,
(03:09):
but he didn't win the nomination. Donald Trump has effectively
been the Republican nominee or president since you could say,
early twenty sixteen. Now he doesn't win Iowa that year,
(03:30):
but after Iowa he begins to pull away. This is
a very long time to maintain this level of popularity
for any political leader in a democratic republic, but particularly
when what has been unleashed against him has been so vicious,
(03:51):
so ugly, so deranged, and untrue, so petty in the
court system, in the media, by the day Democrats, and
of course at the end of a barrel of a gun,
do you even remember the name of the assassin who
shot him in the head and killed Corey? Comparatory? Odd,
(04:12):
isn't It was July thirteenth? How did we forget so fast?
But of course we know who shot Bobby Kennedy, Sir Hen,
Sir Hen. We know who may have shot John F. Kennedy.
We know who shot John Lennon, We know who shot
(04:32):
Ronald Reagan. It wasn't JR. You, oh, we know who
shot JR.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Yeah, But that we had to in fairness, we had
to wait on that. Do you remember who it was?
You don't see you thought it was? Was it Pamela? No? No, no?
What was his wife's name?
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Man, I can't believe. I can't remember this. I'm not
proud of this. But as you know, Johnny Lee was
married to Charlene Tilton at one point. Kind of a
douche mood move, but dudes will understand it. I asked
him some questions about that, and we'll leave it there.
I did. But but without fail, every one of my
(05:13):
friends who first spends time with Dan Pastorini, Danny with
Dante Pastorini, will ask him about Farah Fawcett. And fellas
know what we mean by asking him about Pharah Fawcett.
But that one's understandable. You had her pin up on
the wall. Let me just peel back the curtain a
little bit. We got to know, you know what I mean.
Gotta know. I'm not sure how we got off on this,
(05:34):
other than to say this. Trump has outperformed the polls consistently.
Even in twenty twenty when they claim he lost, he didn't.
When we went to bed, he was winning. They shut
all the voting down and we woke up the next
morning and boof, they had enough votes to beat him.
Who could have known? And the details continue to emerge
(05:56):
and you know it. But one one thing we know
is that Trump always outperforms the poll. If the race
is fifty to fifty in a state, he's winning fifty
three forty seven. And there's a reason for that. The
reason is people who vote for him and are scared
(06:21):
to tell anyone they don't know if they'll be targeted.
There's no fear in saying you're gonna vote for Kamala Harris.
There is fear in saying you're gonna vote for Donald Trump.
And January sixth was in furtherance of that mindset. That's
what you're supposed to believe, that there is a there
(06:44):
is a danger to that. I gotta tell you a
story in furtherance of a point, and that is it
when we go to break do something real quick, real
nice for somebody. We were headed out to wall Or
to deliver the thirty thousand dollars to Scott Durphy, the
officer who was shot a few days ago, and ray Hunt,
(07:07):
the head of the police officers union, said I'll drive you.
We can catch up on the ride and chance McLean
met us out there and remind me to come back
to this point. Rumon, let me first tell that, and
then I'll tell you the Ray Hunt story. We were
(07:28):
going to go on to Brenham because there was a
little house I was going to look at out there.
But the whole thing was predicated on that I would
get to pop in on one of my favorite new
cigar shops, which is a place called Brown Water Cigars,
And so I had the whole thing planned out. Ray
(07:49):
was swinging by popping up in afternoon. We're going to
get up there. Then we were meeting Chance at the
BUCkies and Waller and we would go is it Auster
Durfy bringing the check? Ray would shoot back to the office.
He had a mid afternoon meeting Chance, and I would
carry on to Brenham, pop in to the cigar shop,
(08:13):
say hello to the owner, Randy Bayer, I think is
his name. Check out this place because it's right off
the highway. Be back in time. Well, I didn't know.
Today's a big day for the Tesla folks. I forget
what it is, but I didn't know the Tesla self
driving went active a week ago. We rode the I'm
(08:35):
not a Tesla guy, don't worry. I'm not going over
to the other side. But I'm going to tell you the
self driving was pretty cool. And I'm the guy who
poo poos everything Tesla. We just sat there while that
thing drove itself. That was weird, all right, I'll tell you,
Ray Huns, we can on anybody to come to the economy.
Do you believe Americans are better off that they were
four years ago?
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Michael Barry So. I was raised as a middle test it.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
I know you, God, that's what I want to do.
When those people pull out, and don't wait, stay humbling
kind up there. I let you in that traffic. Stay horbling,
God to acrawl.
Speaker 6 (09:16):
When your last let's just see the proud always stay.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Excuse me, excuse me what I just held the door
open for you. Lady, Okay, be humble and kind and
thank me ungrateful? What are you a teenager?
Speaker 6 (09:45):
And you know the difference between sleeping with someone and
sleeping with someone you.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Will come back to humbling kind? Do you say humble
or humble? You say humble? No, you don't. You say
he's an humble man only for the city, but otherwise
some people do that. It feels like you're trying too hard.
You know people that do that. I feel like that's
trying too hard. You say what you say, humble, oh,
(10:21):
just to give it a little flair. I like that.
I like where you're going with that. All right, keep
humbling kind on your button bar. We're gonna come back
to that, Okay. So you folks, I said, I'll put
up twenty five hundred, will y'all help me get to
ten for this officer just got shot. He's got a
wife and kids.
Speaker 4 (10:41):
And.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Y'all be in y'all. You couldn't couldn't do that, No,
you had to doubt do yourself. So it ended up
as thirty the uh the Texas Association of First Responders
or listeners. They came with twenty five hundred, and then
a bunch of you. It's always the same folks that
(11:04):
started Connie and Russell, but a lot of you, and
some of you it was twenty bucks, some of you
was fifty, some of you was one hundred. As you could,
you did as you always do. You're amazing. And so
it was time to go deliver the check to him
and his family, and so we drive out there. Lives
(11:31):
in Waller lives on a family property that has been
in their family. It was one of those deals where
I like country people and I like older people. When
they're married, how they'll correct each other. But Ray Hunt,
who had driven me out there, He says, Michael, this
(11:55):
property has been in their family since eighteen sixty two,
and the officer's mother in law says, no, eighteen sixty three.
I said, Ray, don't exaggerate, it's not that old. That's
(12:15):
about my level of humor. I'd kill at the Bengo Hall.
So they have within I don't know, some a mile
whatever the difficult distance they have on the original homestead,
one hundred and ten family members and they have something
(12:38):
like nine hundred relatives in the county. I'm gonna get
the numbers wrong. But it was amazing. It felt like
little house on the prairie. I thought Michael Landon was
going to come around the corner at any moment. I
thought that somebody is over in the corner writing a
Luisa may al Cott novel about this thing. So when
(13:01):
we pull up, there's no signs anywhere. There's no you're
not intending to be found. They know if companies coming,
they know where you are. So you turn off the
main road onto a side road. You go for a
while and there's nothing there. You turn off the side
road onto a red dirt road, and the red dirt
(13:23):
road has a marker up there. I'm not going to
tell what it is because these people are in privacy,
but out in the country you always have like an
old fifty two Chevy or you know, old combine, old
cotton baler. There's always something up there that's your marker,
and that's why it's there. It's rusted out anyway. Sometimes
(13:45):
you might put a seasonal decoration on it, like right now,
there might be a you know, a fall an autumnal decoration.
So you go down the red dirt road from there.
So we've been at this for a little while. Up
and there there's a house. The family's out in the
(14:05):
yard and there's a little boy. And you know, when
you're out in the country and people are coming to
visit and you're fired up just a little. Well, I
don't know how it is. I'm gonna say he's somewhere
between six and nine. I'm gonna put him at eight.
He's waiting near the gate, and he sprints up to
(14:27):
the gate barefoot, never thee mind. There's cockle burrs and
everything else. He can't feeling sore as you're rolling up
like that. It's like pigpin and peanuts, you know, dust
going everywhere. It's red dirt road. We go, pulling up
to the front of the gate. There's not a marked
parking spot per se. So Ray, having spent a lot
(14:48):
of time in the country himself, you just pull up
and stop where the hell you want. And I love it.
It smells like eighteen seventy. It feels like eighteen seventy.
It feels pure and natural and clean and wondrous, and
I love it. So we hop out of the truck
(15:12):
and the little fella I thought his name was Daniel,
but Ray says I was wrong. But I'm gonna go
with Daniel because that's what I remember. So he because
the latch to the gate is up high, he has
to cross, he has to climb the fence to get there.
So he climbs up on the fence and got something
(15:32):
in his arms caused him to wobble. He rips the
chain link, the chain off there, and he proceeds to
open it up. He is the front sentry. He is
keeping watch brings usin. He's got a chicken in his hand,
and I don't mean a chick, He's got a big
old chicken named Nugget. And it just felt so wholesome
(15:55):
the whole thing. Well, as that little boy came out,
I don't even remember saying this, but Ray and Chance said,
I said this because it's all I could think was
can you imagine that officer being killed and somebody having
to pull up to tell him? And Ray he got
(16:17):
a lump in his throat, and Chance said, Michael, I said,
that's what I think about. That's how this goes. Anyway,
the family was so grateful. They were just wonderful, salt
of the earth, decent people. The mother homeschools their kids
three days a week and then they go to a
Second Baptist has a church out there. They go to
(16:38):
the church. Second Baptists has started this hybrid homeschooling thing.
So anyway, I'll tell you about the self driving later.
But as we were going up there, Ray tells me
a story, and that is that a sweet couple was
a couple of streets over. Their parents moved in next
door to Ray, and their names are Lawanna and Wayne,
(16:58):
nice older couple, and Ray is very regimented fellow. Every
morning he gets up, goes out to he picks up
their paper and brings it and puts it on their
front porch so they don't have to walk out and
have the sprinklers hit them and all that. But he
never tells me he does it. So one morning a
couple of days ago, early in the morning, as he's
(17:18):
getting up to go out six o'clock in the morning,
that's the last thing he does, and all of a
sudden he hears over his shoulders, so it's you, and it
spooked him in a turn. And the little old lady said,
I wonder who. I wondered who was putting their paper there?
And so I got up early to see it. Thank
you so much. So that's your command, do something nice
for somebody.
Speaker 4 (17:37):
Today, and I thank you.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
I received an email from the woman who said that
her elderly mother had cataract surgery and it didn't go well,
so they brought her to live with them, her and
her husband, and she's almost blind. She wants to vote.
(18:05):
She wants to vote for Trump. She asked me, is
there some assistance that is provided or how does that work?
So I reached out to Rachel Palmer Hooper, who is
the general counsel of the State Republican Party and one
of the smartest people I've ever talked to in my life,
(18:25):
and she said, quote, it's just for those of you
who have a person who might need assistance voting in
your life. In Texas, a voter may receive in marking
or reading the ballot if the voter cannot prepare or
read the ballot because of one a physical disability that
(18:48):
renders the voter unable to write or see, or two
and inability to read the language in which the ballot
is written. On a the voter's request for assistance in
marking the ballot, the voter may be assisted by either
two election officers from different political parties unless there are
(19:10):
not two or more election officers serving, or any person
selected by the voter other than the voter's employer, agent
of the voter's employer, or an officer or agent of
a labor union to which the voter belongs. A voter
assistant must complete a form acknowledging their assistance. Assisting a
(19:34):
voter includes number one reading the ballot to the voter,
Number two directing the voter to read the ballot. Number
three marking the voter's ballot, or number four directing the
voter to mark the ballot. If a voter is assisted
by election officers, one of them shall read the entire
(19:56):
ballot to the voter, unless the voter tells the officer
that the voter desires to vote only on certain offices
or measures. In that case, the officer shall read those
items on the ballot specified by the voter. If a
voter is assisted by a person of the voter's choice,
an election officer shall ask the voter being assisted whether
(20:19):
the voter wants the entire ballot read to the voter.
If so, the officer shall instruct the person assisting the
voter to read the entire ballot to the voter. It
is a crime to knowingly one provide assistance to a
voter who is not eligible for assistance. Number two, while
(20:43):
assisting a voter, prepare the voter's ballot in a way
other than the way the voter directs, or without direction
from the voter. Number three while assisting a voter, suggests
by words, sign, or gesture how the voter should vote.
Or Number four, provide assistance to a voter who has
not requested assistance or selected the person to assist the voter.
(21:08):
It is a crime for an election officer to knowingly
permit a person to provide assistance to a voter who
is not eligible for assistance. If assistance is provided to
a voter who is not eligible for assistance, the voter's
ballot may not be counted. That is the law. But
just so you know, you can cheat all you want,
(21:33):
as often as you want, because Greg Abbott and his
Secretary of State Jane Nelson will not do a thing
about it. And that is a fact. Whatever you may
think of my criticisms of Greg Abbot, that is a fact. Example,
in twenty twenty, we had voting irregularities in Harris County,
(21:56):
a lot of them. So the state legislature, as they
always says, huh, we didn't think about the fact that
they had cheat. So we're gonna have some laws that'll
keep them from cheating. We're always coming back afterwards. We're
gonna have laws they can't cheat, all right, So that
they can't cheat. Law goes like this, We will audit
(22:20):
four counties in the state. One of them has to
be a major county. So the major county that was
by luck of the draw chosen was Harris County for
the twenty twenty two election. Well, guess what happened the
twenty twenty two election is when they cheated worse than
(22:42):
they've ever cheated to get Lena Hidalgo elected. Remember, they
had chas Bono first, and even the Democrats wanted chas
Bono out because he was cheating in the Democrat primary.
Because Rodney doesn't just want to win in November. He
wants to win the primary too. He wants his Democrats.
He didn't just want the Democrat to beat the Republican
for district attorney. He wants to own the Democrat. And
(23:04):
he couldn't own Kim Ogg, but he could own Shawn
Tyr And so he and George Soro's team up. They
kicked Og out of the primary. Well, when the primary
in twenty twenty two had all of these we'll call
them irregularities, Oh Chaz, she was allowed to stay around
long enough so that she could she could get Longoria
was her names all right, so she could get her
(23:26):
full retirement. They kept her a couple of months because
we want to make sure we soaked the taxpayers for
as much money as possible, and they bring in Clifford Tatum.
Clifford Tatum is an assassin. This guy comes in to
rig this election, and he is a low down, dirty bastard.
But God blessed the fact that he takes his mission seriously.
(23:50):
We could handle. We could stand a few Republicans on
the side on our side of the eye. We just
sit around and clut and say, look what they're doing
while they do it. Clifford Tatum is the one doing
it while our people sit around on what are they doing?
So we're supposed to have an audit on twenty twenty
two on that election. Well we got him. Now, we
(24:11):
did a stakeout on the house that they chose to
rob on the night they chose to rob them. Boom,
we got them dead to rights. It's two years later,
where's our audit. The Secretary of State is appointed by
the governor. She serves at his discretion. She's a former
(24:33):
senator named Jane Nelson. Think the kind of people that
would vote for that would support Nicky Haley. Think the
kind of Republicans that's what? Well, now this week the
Secretary of State has declared that non citizen id can
be used to vote. Greg Abbott is allowing illegal aliens
(24:54):
to vote in the state of Texas. And don't let
him lie and tell you he's not but back he's
our god. No he's not. Well, he's their guy, trust me.
I just woke then left woke. Lord. I don't know
how your day is going, but here's how mine's going,
(25:18):
Ramon said across the glass.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Zar.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
It really doesn't matter because Howard Hughes doesn't like to
see other people, so nobody but me's gonna know all day.
But I thought I should tell you got a big
clump of something in your hair. So I went to
the bathroom, ever fearful. This was some sort of practical joke,
and I ran my hand through my hair, and yeah,
(25:46):
there's some goop in my hair, and I'm certain it's
toothpaste and it's a big old clump of it. And
I'm such a goober. I start thinking, wonder how you
did that? I better have a very clean scalp minty hunh.
(26:08):
It was very July Augustus of me. So I'm sitting
there thinking, and I better hurry because we're going to
be back on the air. But wonder how I did
that that must be what it's like to get really old.
Stuff just shows up in places and you have no
idea what what I don't I'm old. I don't know,
so as drives my wife crazy. Everything has to be smelled,
(26:34):
so I give it a smell and I realize it's
not toothpaste, it's just shampoo. And then I remembered what happened.
The shampoo had a clump in it. You know how,
it'll get a clump at the right when you pump it.
(26:55):
And I enjoy that clump because you get to mix
that clump, you get to break it down. And I
didn't break it down. I was running late, so the
clump must have ended up in my head and it
didn't get washed out. So that's how my day is going.
A friend, a friend went in for pancreatic cancer surgery
(27:20):
two days ago, and I got a message from my
I got a message yesterday from his wife, who I've
never spoken to, said, this is SO and So's wife,
and we were expecting an eight hour surgery for the
pancreatic cancer. We're hoping for the best. Unfortunately, when they
(27:43):
got in there, they discovered stage four liver cancer. Now
we're seeking alternative treatments and medicines, and I sent back well,
as luck would have it. I have a friend who
(28:07):
the director of sells in his business, a young man.
I mean, at most he's forty five, he could be
thirty eight. He's a young man with relatively young kids,
beautiful marriage, and as fit as you can be. I mean,
if you saw him, you think he's as healthy as
he could be. He got the cancer, and then the
(28:33):
more studies they did, they gave him two years and
that is not I mean, that's hard to process at
that age. So he's going to go to Mexico. And
as all of you have, I've had friends and people,
(28:54):
I know that you know when it's the end, you'll
try anything, and there's nothing wrong with that. I don't
need high odds. I'll take any odds at that point
if you're trying to survive because you got kids. So
he goes to Mexico and all I'm thinking in the
back of my mind is some scammer down there is
selling snake oil like the Democrats, and this is terrible.
(29:18):
So he goes for his first treatment, gomes back, goes
for his second treatment, come back to his third treatment,
We're three months into this lo and behold, the cancer
is shrinking. And now I don't think he's completely cancer
free yet, but I think he's pretty close. He came
back to the doctors here and they said something has happened,
(29:41):
a miracle or something, but your cancer is almost completely gone.
We never see this. And he said, well, I went
down to this clinic in Mexico and they tried something else,
and the doctor there has a whole theory on how
American medicine is wrong. And I'm not a person who
believes every alternative treatment. I think a lot of them
are scammart, but I think some do work. So anyway,
(30:03):
I have connected the two of them. That was just
what I was thinking. There's really no point to that story.
And my friend, who's director of sales, has the cancer.
I called him to make sure I had his guy's
number correctly and all the details right, so I didn't
pass up my own. And I said, what are you doing?
(30:24):
And he said, I'm getting ready for my hunting trip
where you go in New Mexico to hunt bear. And
I thought, you know, Ramon, you and I are the
only two people who show up every single day. Everybody
else calls out sick, goes on hunting trips, goes on
golfing trips, goes on fishing trips. I'm not saying we
(30:44):
deserve a medal, but we kind of deserve a medal,
is what I'm I guess what I'm saying at this point.
What what or a hunting trip? Yeah? Yeah, A maleman
in north East Oh. I don't have time to do
that story. I'll tell you the HEADLINEA male man in
northeast Harris County is accused of stealing millions of dollars
(31:07):
in checks, leading a male theft ring with several others.
One co conspirator posed with stacks of cash. He got
through the fraud on social media. He's a white guy.
I'm just kidding. No, he's not. Houston Tents and Events owner.
They were one of the fast fifty will be our
(31:28):
guest coming up And after that Ramon had a goofy idea.
But I kind of like it. With the election upon us,
Trump was at an event the other day and there
was a group there to support him called Gaze for
Trump's Gays for Trump, not Gays for Trump's Gays for Trump,
(31:50):
And in the middle of his speech, you know he
doesn't bring notes in with him. He speaks from the cuff.
He says, I thought, Gaze for Trump we're going to
be here. And then this guy over to the side says.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
Over here, over here, deep boys, cowboy hat over here,
and he looks and he goes, you don't look gay,
and everyone fell out laughter.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
The guy said. They asked the guy, you know, I
love Trump. We love everything about him. So Ramone said,
why don't we have some Gaze for Trump call up
and tell why they're voting for Trump. We've done this
with other groups, And I said, because we don't do
identity politics. For a moment, I was just kidding. I said, yes,
(32:34):
it's great idea. So before we do that, we're gonna
have Houston Tenson events at nine at nine thirty, Scott Presler,
who is an openly gay dude who travels the country
registering voters, is in Pennsylvania doing amazing work. Trump brings
him up on stage. Now it's incredible story. He got
better hair than Crystal Gale. But after that, and so
