Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is the story that Ramon Roblis has been waiting
for his entire life. The King of Being loves anything
to do with Djibouti. It's not the story itself that
I think he's been waiting on. It's just the geographic
location and that Jibouti actually gets mentioned in a real story.
(00:25):
White House Deputy chief of Staff and one of our favorites,
Stephen Miller, was on Newsmax a short time ago when
he disclosed how a local judge trapped ICE agents in
you guessed it, Djibouti and.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
A local judge of Boston ordered the flight grounded and
has now trapped ICE officers in Djibouti, with these savage
monsters having to guard to protect them twenty four to
seven in a location with no appropriate facilities, no detention space,
no detention beds, nothing putting their lives in line. They
have to watch them twenty four to seven. There aren't
(01:05):
enough resources in the location to ensure the safety of
these ICE officers. Is this judge mad? Is this a lunatic?
What kind of world are we even living in where
we're even having this conversation illgal aliens who invaded our
country and murdered our people, and now we're setting them out,
and a judge says, no, that is a judicial coup
by any definition.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
I told you that Ramone has waited for this moment
for a long time. He wrote this song about being
trapped in Djibouti.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Above the flash tooth Bostons had my bed and play
it in hand. Was chasing down some criminals for Uncle
Sam's holand but justice wheels were spending it. And I
send my air Force Smoothie. I judged it up and yell,
this place stays in jibout Now I'm trapped and Jabooty
(02:18):
can't get out. Feel tired and look me because IM said, sir,
that's international Booty. Now me and my dignity step kidd
JABOUTI lost my keys and Jabooty can't find my phone.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
God received some regrets.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
I should never have known. My back up badge is badge. Indeed,
I've reached a vet man.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
It's very it's deep.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
I got dum stop Injibooty found suck stump no bree
inji Booty heard an echo said help me, Scooby. Even
God survey ve Dabooty. I'm stopping into Booty Caja booty
(03:30):
left a sandwich too long. Now it's kind of food.
TSA found a blasht mockdooty. Now it's sevendens trapped into booty.
There's a loss to found Inji booty, shoot a dream
(03:51):
and made a hoky.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I tried to smug a hope, but.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
It caught me. Now hopes in quarantine.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
In Djibouti.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Trapped in j.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Crampt Jabi. But you know, speaking of Jibouti and Africa
(04:43):
generally going down quite far from Northeast Africa to South Africa,
literally the country known as South Africa. It's two interesting
things about South Africa is that South Africa had not
(05:03):
been in the news. And Elon musk a proud South African,
managed to bring South Africa into the news and managed
to bring the American public up to speed on what's
happening there with the black slaughter of white farmers who
were in the distinct minority. He's managed to bring it
(05:25):
to President Trump's attention, and President Trump brought a lot
of attention to the issue in the world, in the
world's mind by hosting the South African leader and then
playing video of white's being slaughtered It's really really interesting
when you study messaging and media and these sorts of things.
(05:48):
How the issue of South Africa went from being something
that no one was talking about to being something that
on the streets of Tupelo or the streets of Tampa
people are talking about at bars and restaurants and waiting
in line. It became a major story without you know,
(06:10):
the Olympics does that, the super Bowl does that. You know,
George Floyd Case does that. But Elon willed this story
to being relevant to people who have never gone and
will never go to South Africa. And it's it's quite amazing.
I mean, his commitment to the issue, in making this
(06:32):
issue something that the world is going to have to
confront is quite impressive. I must say, I'll bet you
we've got ten thousands sweet little ladies of seventy or
more that would make a pound cake that you could
eat cold and enjoy.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
Michael very Cho.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Just a reminder that we do a Saturday podcast. The
occasion came about because, or should I say occasioned by
the fact that for years people would tell me that
they loved our show Monday through Friday, and most of
those came from people in the evening who didn't know
that we also do a morning show, which is a
(07:18):
different show, and so okay, great, they went and found
our podcast and started listening to the morning show and
then listening to the evening show on their radio. But
then they would say, we really enjoy hanging out with
you guys, we would I wish you'd do a weekend show,
and that's our time to recharge our batteries. So we
started a weekend podcast and that is now what we do.
(07:43):
We do a Saturday podcast, which is usually a long
form piece because our clock or radio is about nine
minute segments and then news and traffic and weather or
on and it we don't have time, you know, if
it's a if it's a fifteen minute speech that builds
(08:05):
to a crescendo, we struggle with that because it would
be interrupted by a by a separation. So anyway, if
you've not tuned into our podcast, you can get it
wherever you get your podcasts. iHeart iTunes, Spotify, and we
also you can at our website Michael Berryshow dot com.
You can send me an email, you can sign up
(08:27):
for our daily blast, you can buy our merch and
I do love to hear from you. That's all At
Michael Berryshow dot com. FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino tweeted
that the FBI will either reopen or push additional resources
to the following cases. You're gonna like this, the DC
(08:49):
pipe bomb, the cocaine found in the White House, uh oh, Hunter,
and the Dobbs decision. Remember the Dobbs decision leak, the
abortion case, the Supreme Court leak. We've never had a
leak like that. Leaks like that are dangerous. People could
(09:10):
get hurt. Somebody could get killed if they were going
to vote the wrong way on an issue, they could
be killed by an activist to keep them from casting
their vote. In a case for making the ruling, Well,
we're gonna find out who it was. Was it Katanji
Brown Jackson, was it Sonya Sotomayor who was it? Was
(09:36):
it Elise Kagan. We're gonna find out. We're gonna find out.
Former FBI Assistant Director for counter Intelligence Frank Figliuzzi is
very upset. He does not want answers to these questions.
Can you guess why? He told MSNBC that finding answers
(10:02):
to the DC pipe bomb, you kind of think that
that would be important, wouldn't you. Cocaine was found in
the White House kind of important, isn't it. There was
a leak in the Supreme Court that must never happen again.
It's never happened before, it can never happen again. So
why wouldn't the FBI be investigator should have investigated before?
Speaker 6 (10:19):
Now?
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Well, former FBIS is a director for counter intelligence, Frank Figliuzzi,
he's very unhappy here. He was on MSNBC saying this
is not good.
Speaker 7 (10:30):
So at face value, of course, people catching this quickly
in the evening news, with their lives going on around them,
they may say, what's wrong with that?
Speaker 4 (10:38):
We all want to solve. Let's get to it.
Speaker 7 (10:40):
Let's figure out whose cocaine it was at the White House.
Let's solve the pipe bombs placed on the night of
January fifth, Let's figure out who leaked to the dobs
draft from the Supreme Court. Sure, but you've got to understand,
as you said, first, what's not getting done in the
FBI's national security priorities, public corruption, organized crime, violent and
gangs number one?
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Number two?
Speaker 7 (11:02):
What's really behind all of this posturing by the Deputy
director of the FBI. He's got to make good on
the promises that Cash Pattel, the director, and himself made
in their podcasts, their books, their public appearances where they said,
I believe in the following conspiracies.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
I believe the FBI is hiding who the pipe bomber is.
I believe that some liberal.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
Democrat leaked the Dobbs draft out of the Supreme Court, etc.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
Etc.
Speaker 7 (11:32):
And now last week Kendelanian of NBC News reported on
the pressure coming from MAGA on the FBI. Hey, you
said you'd deliver on this show us the goods show,
us expose all of these conspiracy theories you espoused. Well,
they can't do it, and so now we're seeing all
these resources are going to go into doing something. By
(11:52):
the way, the Supreme Court leak was never truly investigated.
So look, I'm for a real honest investigation. You recall
the Chief Justice decided he do that in house with
the Marshal of the Supreme Court. That's not an investigation.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
They didn't. I've wrote about this, I've spoken about it.
Speaker 7 (12:08):
They never went outside the court to interview former clerks, spouses,
never did a real live grand jury to get to
the bottom of this. So yeah, let's do it, But
are they prepared be careful.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
What to asked for? Because if the FBI finds.
Speaker 7 (12:23):
That Geett it wasn't some left wing liberal who leaked
to the DOBS decision. Are we going to get that truth?
That's what's important.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
This will take away from investigating real crime. Someone planting
pipe bombs next to the RNC and the DNC as
political an assassination attempt as you can get, and you
don't think that's real crime, Well, you're not worried that
(12:55):
maybe we'll find out who did it?
Speaker 6 (12:57):
Are you?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
You're not telling me that those pipe bombs weren't actually
placed there, are you? Frank? You're not saying that maybe
if they were placed there, they were placed there by
an asset under the FBI's direction. That wouldn't have happened,
would it. Well, let's see who stands to gain if
(13:24):
very grainy footage, the worst footage ever. We were in
twenty twenty in January of twenty twenty one, and the
footage was that bad. Green cameras are better than that,
and footage emerged of a person looks like the same
person putting a pipe bomb next to the RNC and
(13:46):
the DNC. Well, what narrative. Might someone be trying to
create maybe that the January sixth people were very dangerous.
So the fact that not one of them was armed
when they tried to take over the government by walking
(14:10):
through and reading the Constitution out loud. Ah but look
at those bombs. Ah see you got those bombs. Yeah,
your best Norm McDonald voice. Okay. Someone planting bombs for
political assassination is a pretty big crime. Someone leaving cocaine
in the White House and surreal crime. If cocaine were
(14:34):
found in your house, you'd better believe they would investigate
till they found out whose it was. Why wouldn't you
want to find out who did this in the White House?
Leaking a Supreme Court case that's never been done. This
was the most scandalous thing in the Supreme Court in
fifty years. How's that not a crime?
Speaker 6 (15:04):
So?
Speaker 1 (15:04):
MSNBC legal analysts Joyce Dvance claims these investigations politicize the FBI. Now, folks,
I know some of you out there laugh out loud
when I said that line, not because it's actually funny,
(15:26):
but because if you didn't laugh, there would be an insurrection.
It's amazing there hasn't been a revolution in this country,
the way they've treated us, the way they've stolen money,
the way they've imprisoned protesters on January sixth, while letting
(15:46):
Black Lives Matter and Antifa thugs literally kill people and
walk free. It's amazing there hadn't been a revolution. It
speaks to the meekness, the timidity, the frankly we've gotten
fact of this nation because the people who founded this country,
(16:09):
who took it from colony to superpower, those people said
these indignities are too much. They told King George the third,
the most powerful man in the world, we have had enough.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Brother.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
We are no longer your subjects. We choose that you
shall no longer reign over us, take from us, govern us,
humiliate us, tax us. That's what they did. They wrote
(16:53):
a letter, but it wasn't the writing of the letter
that was courageous. You ever looked at there's YouTube videos
out there, just look up. Whatever happened to the men
who signed the Declaration of Independence. They pledged it all,
they said so, and most gave it all. It is
(17:16):
amazing that today these people have gotten away with as
much as they have. All things considered, I mean, when
you really stop to think about it. It is amazing,
all things considered. Anyway, here's that audio.
Speaker 8 (17:31):
Joice Two of the investigations on that list of the
pipe bomb and the cocaine found that the White House
have long been a subject of right wing conspiracy theories,
claimed that Bongino himself has promoted. So what does it
tell us about how the FBI is operating right now?
Speaker 6 (17:48):
So I think you've gone right to the heart of
the issue. Is this the FBI following the most important
cases in its portfolio? Bongino said he's getting weekly briefings
on progress in these cases. It's tough to imagine that
they are the most important cases in the FBI's portfolio
right now. And so it suggests, although it's the Justice
(18:11):
Department that's currently investigating politicization of the Biden Justice Department,
that there's a lot of politics going on at the
FBI these days.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Ramon just reminded me we're on a little bit of
a tangent, but we do that that Paul Harvey had
a wonderful piece on this subject, and he wants to
play it mostly because we just love to hear Paul
Harvey's voice. And Paul Harvey could read the phone book
and we listened to him. But this is, as usual
(18:45):
exemplary of his not only his great delivery, but his
great writing. Paul Harvey was a great writer.
Speaker 9 (18:55):
Americans. The how and the why I would be loved.
The Republic so much better known and understood than the who.
The United States of America was born in seventeen seventy six,
but it was conceived one hundred and sixty nine years
before that. The earliest settlers had watered the new world
with much sweat, They had built substantial holdings for themselves,
(19:19):
for their families, and when the time came to separate
themselves from a tyranny and ocean away, at best, it
meant starting all over again after the ravages of war.
Researching what you're about to hear gave a whole new
dimension to my reverence for our nation's first citizens. All
(19:40):
others of the world's revolutions before and since were initiated
by men who had nothing to lose, nothing to lose.
Our founders had everything to lose and nothing to gain
except one thing. Hello, Americans, I'm Paul Harvey. You remember
(20:14):
the Cherry Tree fiction A long time after you have
forgotten the more earth shaking history making episodes in the
life of George Washington. You have misplaced in your memory
the details of Ben Franklin's statesmanship, but you remember his
flying a kite. Joyce Kilmer was a great military hero,
but the only thing you personally recall about him.
Speaker 5 (20:35):
Is his poetic tribute to trees.
Speaker 9 (20:38):
Maybe of this current decade, that which will be remembered
best will not be its wars and its moon rockets,
or its crumbling frontiers, or the giants who lived and died.
Maybe all that'll survive to linger in the day by
day vocabulary of generations yet unborn, Maybe the songs of
a Memphis minstrel, or the Rheinn car nation of electric automobiles.
(21:04):
But for any eve of the fourth of July, I,
Paul Harvey do herewith bequeath.
Speaker 5 (21:11):
Unto you something to remember.
Speaker 9 (21:14):
You may not be able to quote one line from
the Declaration of Independence at this moment. Henceforth you'll always
be able to quote at least one line. It's in
the last paragraph where you will recall, when I remind you,
it says we mutually pledge to each other our lives,
our fortunes, and our sacred honor. In the Pennsylvania State
(21:37):
House that's now called Independence Hall in Philadelphia. The best
men from each of the colonies sat down together. This
was a very fortunate hour in our nation's history, one
of those rare occasions in the lives of men when
we had greatness to spare. These were men of means,
well educated. Twenty four were lawyers and jurists. Nine were farmers,
(21:58):
owners of large plantations. On June eleven, the Committee sat
down to draw up a declaration of independence. We were
going to tell the British fatherland no more ruled by
redcoats below the dam a ruthless foreign rule. Stream of
freedom was running shallow and muddy, and we were going to,
like the fuse to dynamite that damn. This pact, as
(22:20):
Burke later put it, was a partnership between the living
and the dead and the yet unborn. There was no bigotry,
there was no demagoguery in this group. All had shared hardships.
Jefferson finished a draft of the document in seventeen days.
Congress adopted it in July, and so much as familiar history,
(22:41):
but now King George third had denounced all rebels in
America as traitors.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
Punishment for treason was hanging.
Speaker 9 (22:51):
The names now so familiar to you from the several
signatures on that Declaration of Independence. The names were kept
secret for six months for each new the full meaning
of that magnificent last paragraph, in which his signature pledged
his life, his fortune, and his sacred honor. Fifty six
(23:17):
men placed their names beneath that fledge. Fifty six men
knew when they signed that they were risking everything. They
knew if they won this fight, the best they could
expect would be years of hardship and a struggling nation,
And if they lost, they'd face a hangman's rope.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
The first I've been destroying the black community is to
dismantle the black family.
Speaker 4 (23:41):
The Michael Berry Show, why don't we ask.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Missus Willie Brown if Kamala Harris cares about Black families.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
We'll use any excuse to play Paul Harvey because we
get to listen to him with you. We love Paul Harty.
Paul Harvey and Russe Limbaugh are our two greatest influences
in what we do. We were talking about the signers
of the Declaration of Independence and the statement they made
and level of commitment they made, and Ramon reminded me well,
(24:12):
remember the Paul Harvey bit, you don't have to tell
me twice. So here is the second half of Paul
Harvey's beautiful, beautiful discussion of that issue.
Speaker 9 (24:22):
Fifty six men placed their names beneath that fledge. Fifty
six men knew when they signed that they were risking everything.
They knew if they won this fight, the best they
could expect would be years of hardship and a struggling nation.
And if they lost, they'd face a hangman's rope. But
(24:43):
they signed the pledge, And here is the documented fate
of that gallant.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Fifty six.
Speaker 9 (24:52):
Carter Braxton of Virginia, wealthy planter, trader, saw his ships
swept from the seas to pay his debts.
Speaker 5 (24:59):
He lost his home and all of his properties, and
died in rags.
Speaker 9 (25:04):
Thomas Lynch Junior, who signed that pledge, was a third
generation rice grower, aristocrat, large plantation owner. After he signed,
his health failed his wife and he set out for
France to regain his failing health. Their ship never got
to France was never heard from again. Thomas McKean of
Delaware was so harassed by the enemy that he was
(25:27):
forced to move his family five times in five months
he served in Congress without pay, his family in poverty
and in hiding. Vandals looted the properties of Ellery and
Climber and Hall and Gwinnett and Walton and Hayward and
Rutledge and Middleton. Thomas Nelson Junior of Virginia raised two
million dollars on his own signature to provision our allies
(25:51):
the French fleet. After the war, he personally paid back.
The loans wiped out his entire estate, and he was
never reimbursed by his government. In the final battle for Yorktown,
he Nelson urged General Washington to fire on his Nelson's
own home, which was occupied by Cornwallis.
Speaker 5 (26:10):
It was destroyed.
Speaker 9 (26:12):
Thomas Nelson Junior had pledged his life, his fortune, and
his sacred honor. The Hessians seized the home of Francis
Hopkinson of New Jersey. Francis Lewis had his home and
everything destroyed, his wife imprisoned. She died within a few months.
(26:32):
Richard Stockton, who signed that declaration, was captured, mistreated, his
health broken to the extent that he died at fifty one.
Speaker 5 (26:41):
His estate was pillaged.
Speaker 9 (26:43):
Thomas Hayward Junior was captured when Charleston fell. John Hart
was driven from his wife's bedside while she was dying.
Their thirteen children fled in all directions for their lives.
His fields and gristmill were laid waste for more than
a year. He lived in forests and caves, and returned
home after the war to find his wife dead, his
(27:05):
children gone, his property's gone, and he died a few
weeks later of exhaustion and a broken heart. Lewis Morris
saw his land destroyed, his family scattered. Philip Livingstone died
within a few months from the hardships of the war.
John Hancock history remembers best due to a quirk of fate,
(27:25):
rather than anything. He stood for that great sweeping signature
attesting to his vanity.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
Towers over the others. One of the wealthiest men in
New England.
Speaker 9 (27:36):
And yet he stood outside Boston one terrible night of
the war, and he said, burne Boston. Though it makes
John Hancock a beggar if the public good requires it.
So he too, lived up to the pledge of the
(27:58):
fifty six. They were long to survive. Five were captured
by the British and tortured before they died. Twelve had
their homes from Rhode Island to Charleston sacked, looted, occupied
by the enemy, or burned. Two lost their sons in
the army, one had two sons captured. Nine of the
fifty six died in the war from its hardships or from.
Speaker 5 (28:20):
Its more merciful bullets. I don't know.
Speaker 9 (28:26):
What impression you had had of the men who met
that summer in Philadelphia, but I think it's important that
we remember this about them.
Speaker 5 (28:36):
They were not poor men. They were not wild eyed pirates.
These were men of means.
Speaker 9 (28:43):
They were rich men, most of them, and had enjoyed
much ease and luxury in their personal living. Not hungry men, certainly,
Not terrorists, not irresponsible malcontents, not fanatical incendiaries. These men
were prosperous men, wealthy landowners. They were substantially secure in
(29:08):
their prosperity. They had everything to lose.
Speaker 5 (29:13):
But they considered liberty, and this is as much as
I shall say about it.
Speaker 9 (29:18):
They had learned that liberty is so much more important
than security, that they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and
their sacred honors.
Speaker 5 (29:30):
And they fulfilled their pledge. They paid the price, and
freedom was born.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Anyway back to it, ramon, you want to take a
guess who, Joyce says, is concerned about the investigations. The
rank and file. Oh, the rank and file are concerned.
That's not true. I know some of the rank and
files of you as well. The rank and file live
in our neighborhoods. They do their jobs. They are not political.
(30:05):
The people who are political are comy who should end
up in prison. Andrew McCabe, who was who was fired
for lying and creating hoaxes and then he sued the
government and Department of Justice, handing him seven hundred thousand
under Biden. As a way, his point was, Hey, I
know what y'all did. Yeah, you caught me committing a crime,
(30:28):
but you know I committed some other crimes on your direction.
If you don't, I'm gonna sue y'all. If you don't
settle with me, give me all this money, then I'm
going to blow the whistle on it. And that's exactly
what happened. That wasn't a rank and file doing all that.
Peter Straisig with his little mistress Lisa Page. He he
(30:50):
wasn't a rank and file. These were guy. These were
highly political people in the top office. And that is
why our new FBI director, Cash Betel is moving those
out of there.
Speaker 8 (31:01):
And we've talked before, Joyce about morale. What does it say,
What is this this decision say when you reinvestigate, what
does it say to the people who worked on these
cases before.
Speaker 6 (31:12):
So, look, investigations can be reopened. That's not entirely uncommon,
but typically it happens when there's new evidence that means
that a case that previously couldn't be prosecuted should be reinvestigative.
Maybe there's new evidence here, but there's no indication in that.
From what we're seeing them say, this looks like they've
(31:34):
simply been reopened. Because in at least one case, the
cocaine found in the White House, President Trump has suggested
maybe it's Hunter Biden's and he wants to know who
it belonged to. And so this does nothing good for
the morale of individual agents. They've got cases to work on.
They're already under attack by this administration. Those of them
(31:54):
who worked on January sixth related cases that were assigned
to them have legitimate fears about their future. And so
now to see cases being reopened that have already been
disposed of, that I think is concerning to the rank
and file
This is the story that Ramon Roblis has been waiting
for his entire life. The King of Being loves anything
to do with Djibouti. It's not the story itself that
I think he's been waiting on. It's just the geographic
location and that Jibouti actually gets mentioned in a real story.
(00:25):
White House Deputy chief of Staff and one of our favorites,
Stephen Miller, was on Newsmax a short time ago when
he disclosed how a local judge trapped ICE agents in
you guessed it, Djibouti and.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
A local judge of Boston ordered the flight grounded and
has now trapped ICE officers in Djibouti, with these savage
monsters having to guard to protect them twenty four to
seven in a location with no appropriate facilities, no detention space,
no detention beds, nothing putting their lives in line. They
have to watch them twenty four to seven. There aren't
(01:05):
enough resources in the location to ensure the safety of
these ICE officers. Is this judge mad? Is this a lunatic?
What kind of world are we even living in where
we're even having this conversation illgal aliens who invaded our
country and murdered our people, and now we're setting them out,
and a judge says, no, that is a judicial coup
by any definition.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
I told you that Ramone has waited for this moment
for a long time. He wrote this song about being
trapped in Djibouti.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Above the flash tooth Bostons had my bed and play
it in hand. Was chasing down some criminals for Uncle
Sam's holand but justice wheels were spending it. And I
send my air Force Smoothie. I judged it up and yell,
this place stays in jibout Now I'm trapped and Jabooty
(02:18):
can't get out. Feel tired and look me because IM said, sir,
that's international Booty. Now me and my dignity step kidd
JABOUTI lost my keys and Jabooty can't find my phone.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
God received some regrets.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
I should never have known. My back up badge is badge. Indeed,
I've reached a vet man.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
It's very it's deep.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
I got dum stop Injibooty found suck stump no bree
inji Booty heard an echo said help me, Scooby. Even
God survey ve Dabooty. I'm stopping into Booty Caja booty
(03:30):
left a sandwich too long. Now it's kind of food.
TSA found a blasht mockdooty. Now it's sevendens trapped into booty.
There's a loss to found Inji booty, shoot a dream
(03:51):
and made a hoky.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I tried to smug a hope, but.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
It caught me. Now hopes in quarantine.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
In Djibouti.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Trapped in j.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Crampt Jabi. But you know, speaking of Jibouti and Africa
(04:43):
generally going down quite far from Northeast Africa to South Africa,
literally the country known as South Africa. It's two interesting
things about South Africa is that South Africa had not
(05:03):
been in the news. And Elon musk a proud South African,
managed to bring South Africa into the news and managed
to bring the American public up to speed on what's
happening there with the black slaughter of white farmers who
were in the distinct minority. He's managed to bring it
(05:25):
to President Trump's attention, and President Trump brought a lot
of attention to the issue in the world, in the
world's mind by hosting the South African leader and then
playing video of white's being slaughtered It's really really interesting
when you study messaging and media and these sorts of things.
(05:48):
How the issue of South Africa went from being something
that no one was talking about to being something that
on the streets of Tupelo or the streets of Tampa
people are talking about at bars and restaurants and waiting
in line. It became a major story without you know,
(06:10):
the Olympics does that, the super Bowl does that. You know,
George Floyd Case does that. But Elon willed this story
to being relevant to people who have never gone and
will never go to South Africa. And it's it's quite amazing.
I mean, his commitment to the issue, in making this
(06:32):
issue something that the world is going to have to
confront is quite impressive. I must say, I'll bet you
we've got ten thousands sweet little ladies of seventy or
more that would make a pound cake that you could
eat cold and enjoy.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
Michael very Cho.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Just a reminder that we do a Saturday podcast. The
occasion came about because, or should I say occasioned by
the fact that for years people would tell me that
they loved our show Monday through Friday, and most of
those came from people in the evening who didn't know
that we also do a morning show, which is a
(07:18):
different show, and so okay, great, they went and found
our podcast and started listening to the morning show and
then listening to the evening show on their radio. But
then they would say, we really enjoy hanging out with
you guys, we would I wish you'd do a weekend show,
and that's our time to recharge our batteries. So we
started a weekend podcast and that is now what we do.
(07:43):
We do a Saturday podcast, which is usually a long
form piece because our clock or radio is about nine
minute segments and then news and traffic and weather or
on and it we don't have time, you know, if
it's a if it's a fifteen minute speech that builds
(08:05):
to a crescendo, we struggle with that because it would
be interrupted by a by a separation. So anyway, if
you've not tuned into our podcast, you can get it
wherever you get your podcasts. iHeart iTunes, Spotify, and we
also you can at our website Michael Berryshow dot com.
You can send me an email, you can sign up
(08:27):
for our daily blast, you can buy our merch and
I do love to hear from you. That's all At
Michael Berryshow dot com. FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino tweeted
that the FBI will either reopen or push additional resources
to the following cases. You're gonna like this, the DC
(08:49):
pipe bomb, the cocaine found in the White House, uh oh, Hunter,
and the Dobbs decision. Remember the Dobbs decision leak, the
abortion case, the Supreme Court leak. We've never had a
leak like that. Leaks like that are dangerous. People could
(09:10):
get hurt. Somebody could get killed if they were going
to vote the wrong way on an issue, they could
be killed by an activist to keep them from casting
their vote. In a case for making the ruling, Well,
we're gonna find out who it was. Was it Katanji
Brown Jackson, was it Sonya Sotomayor who was it? Was
(09:36):
it Elise Kagan. We're gonna find out. We're gonna find out.
Former FBI Assistant Director for counter Intelligence Frank Figliuzzi is
very upset. He does not want answers to these questions.
Can you guess why? He told MSNBC that finding answers
(10:02):
to the DC pipe bomb, you kind of think that
that would be important, wouldn't you. Cocaine was found in
the White House kind of important, isn't it. There was
a leak in the Supreme Court that must never happen again.
It's never happened before, it can never happen again. So
why wouldn't the FBI be investigator should have investigated before?
Speaker 6 (10:19):
Now?
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Well, former FBIS is a director for counter intelligence, Frank Figliuzzi,
he's very unhappy here. He was on MSNBC saying this
is not good.
Speaker 7 (10:30):
So at face value, of course, people catching this quickly
in the evening news, with their lives going on around them,
they may say, what's wrong with that?
Speaker 4 (10:38):
We all want to solve. Let's get to it.
Speaker 7 (10:40):
Let's figure out whose cocaine it was at the White House.
Let's solve the pipe bombs placed on the night of
January fifth, Let's figure out who leaked to the dobs
draft from the Supreme Court. Sure, but you've got to understand,
as you said, first, what's not getting done in the
FBI's national security priorities, public corruption, organized crime, violent and
gangs number one?
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Number two?
Speaker 7 (11:02):
What's really behind all of this posturing by the Deputy
director of the FBI. He's got to make good on
the promises that Cash Pattel, the director, and himself made
in their podcasts, their books, their public appearances where they said,
I believe in the following conspiracies.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
I believe the FBI is hiding who the pipe bomber is.
I believe that some liberal.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
Democrat leaked the Dobbs draft out of the Supreme Court, etc.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
Etc.
Speaker 7 (11:32):
And now last week Kendelanian of NBC News reported on
the pressure coming from MAGA on the FBI. Hey, you
said you'd deliver on this show us the goods show,
us expose all of these conspiracy theories you espoused. Well,
they can't do it, and so now we're seeing all
these resources are going to go into doing something. By
(11:52):
the way, the Supreme Court leak was never truly investigated.
So look, I'm for a real honest investigation. You recall
the Chief Justice decided he do that in house with
the Marshal of the Supreme Court. That's not an investigation.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
They didn't. I've wrote about this, I've spoken about it.
Speaker 7 (12:08):
They never went outside the court to interview former clerks, spouses,
never did a real live grand jury to get to
the bottom of this. So yeah, let's do it, But
are they prepared be careful.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
What to asked for? Because if the FBI finds.
Speaker 7 (12:23):
That Geett it wasn't some left wing liberal who leaked
to the DOBS decision. Are we going to get that truth?
That's what's important.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
This will take away from investigating real crime. Someone planting
pipe bombs next to the RNC and the DNC as
political an assassination attempt as you can get, and you
don't think that's real crime, Well, you're not worried that
(12:55):
maybe we'll find out who did it?
Speaker 6 (12:57):
Are you?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
You're not telling me that those pipe bombs weren't actually
placed there, are you? Frank? You're not saying that maybe
if they were placed there, they were placed there by
an asset under the FBI's direction. That wouldn't have happened,
would it. Well, let's see who stands to gain if
(13:24):
very grainy footage, the worst footage ever. We were in
twenty twenty in January of twenty twenty one, and the
footage was that bad. Green cameras are better than that,
and footage emerged of a person looks like the same
person putting a pipe bomb next to the RNC and
(13:46):
the DNC. Well, what narrative. Might someone be trying to
create maybe that the January sixth people were very dangerous.
So the fact that not one of them was armed
when they tried to take over the government by walking
(14:10):
through and reading the Constitution out loud. Ah but look
at those bombs. Ah see you got those bombs. Yeah,
your best Norm McDonald voice. Okay. Someone planting bombs for
political assassination is a pretty big crime. Someone leaving cocaine
in the White House and surreal crime. If cocaine were
(14:34):
found in your house, you'd better believe they would investigate
till they found out whose it was. Why wouldn't you
want to find out who did this in the White House?
Leaking a Supreme Court case that's never been done. This
was the most scandalous thing in the Supreme Court in
fifty years. How's that not a crime?
Speaker 6 (15:04):
So?
Speaker 1 (15:04):
MSNBC legal analysts Joyce Dvance claims these investigations politicize the FBI. Now, folks,
I know some of you out there laugh out loud
when I said that line, not because it's actually funny,
(15:26):
but because if you didn't laugh, there would be an insurrection.
It's amazing there hasn't been a revolution in this country,
the way they've treated us, the way they've stolen money,
the way they've imprisoned protesters on January sixth, while letting
(15:46):
Black Lives Matter and Antifa thugs literally kill people and
walk free. It's amazing there hadn't been a revolution. It
speaks to the meekness, the timidity, the frankly we've gotten
fact of this nation because the people who founded this country,
(16:09):
who took it from colony to superpower, those people said
these indignities are too much. They told King George the third,
the most powerful man in the world, we have had enough.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Brother.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
We are no longer your subjects. We choose that you
shall no longer reign over us, take from us, govern us,
humiliate us, tax us. That's what they did. They wrote
(16:53):
a letter, but it wasn't the writing of the letter
that was courageous. You ever looked at there's YouTube videos
out there, just look up. Whatever happened to the men
who signed the Declaration of Independence. They pledged it all,
they said so, and most gave it all. It is
(17:16):
amazing that today these people have gotten away with as
much as they have. All things considered, I mean, when
you really stop to think about it. It is amazing,
all things considered. Anyway, here's that audio.
Speaker 8 (17:31):
Joice Two of the investigations on that list of the
pipe bomb and the cocaine found that the White House
have long been a subject of right wing conspiracy theories,
claimed that Bongino himself has promoted. So what does it
tell us about how the FBI is operating right now?
Speaker 6 (17:48):
So I think you've gone right to the heart of
the issue. Is this the FBI following the most important
cases in its portfolio? Bongino said he's getting weekly briefings
on progress in these cases. It's tough to imagine that
they are the most important cases in the FBI's portfolio
right now. And so it suggests, although it's the Justice
(18:11):
Department that's currently investigating politicization of the Biden Justice Department,
that there's a lot of politics going on at the
FBI these days.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Ramon just reminded me we're on a little bit of
a tangent, but we do that that Paul Harvey had
a wonderful piece on this subject, and he wants to
play it mostly because we just love to hear Paul
Harvey's voice. And Paul Harvey could read the phone book
and we listened to him. But this is, as usual
(18:45):
exemplary of his not only his great delivery, but his
great writing. Paul Harvey was a great writer.
Speaker 9 (18:55):
Americans. The how and the why I would be loved.
The Republic so much better known and understood than the who.
The United States of America was born in seventeen seventy six,
but it was conceived one hundred and sixty nine years
before that. The earliest settlers had watered the new world
with much sweat, They had built substantial holdings for themselves,
(19:19):
for their families, and when the time came to separate
themselves from a tyranny and ocean away, at best, it
meant starting all over again after the ravages of war.
Researching what you're about to hear gave a whole new
dimension to my reverence for our nation's first citizens. All
(19:40):
others of the world's revolutions before and since were initiated
by men who had nothing to lose, nothing to lose.
Our founders had everything to lose and nothing to gain
except one thing. Hello, Americans, I'm Paul Harvey. You remember
(20:14):
the Cherry Tree fiction A long time after you have
forgotten the more earth shaking history making episodes in the
life of George Washington. You have misplaced in your memory
the details of Ben Franklin's statesmanship, but you remember his
flying a kite. Joyce Kilmer was a great military hero,
but the only thing you personally recall about him.
Speaker 5 (20:35):
Is his poetic tribute to trees.
Speaker 9 (20:38):
Maybe of this current decade, that which will be remembered
best will not be its wars and its moon rockets,
or its crumbling frontiers, or the giants who lived and died.
Maybe all that'll survive to linger in the day by
day vocabulary of generations yet unborn, Maybe the songs of
a Memphis minstrel, or the Rheinn car nation of electric automobiles.
(21:04):
But for any eve of the fourth of July, I,
Paul Harvey do herewith bequeath.
Speaker 5 (21:11):
Unto you something to remember.
Speaker 9 (21:14):
You may not be able to quote one line from
the Declaration of Independence at this moment. Henceforth you'll always
be able to quote at least one line. It's in
the last paragraph where you will recall, when I remind you,
it says we mutually pledge to each other our lives,
our fortunes, and our sacred honor. In the Pennsylvania State
(21:37):
House that's now called Independence Hall in Philadelphia. The best
men from each of the colonies sat down together. This
was a very fortunate hour in our nation's history, one
of those rare occasions in the lives of men when
we had greatness to spare. These were men of means,
well educated. Twenty four were lawyers and jurists. Nine were farmers,
(21:58):
owners of large plantations. On June eleven, the Committee sat
down to draw up a declaration of independence. We were
going to tell the British fatherland no more ruled by
redcoats below the dam a ruthless foreign rule. Stream of
freedom was running shallow and muddy, and we were going to,
like the fuse to dynamite that damn. This pact, as
(22:20):
Burke later put it, was a partnership between the living
and the dead and the yet unborn. There was no bigotry,
there was no demagoguery in this group. All had shared hardships.
Jefferson finished a draft of the document in seventeen days.
Congress adopted it in July, and so much as familiar history,
(22:41):
but now King George third had denounced all rebels in
America as traitors.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
Punishment for treason was hanging.
Speaker 9 (22:51):
The names now so familiar to you from the several
signatures on that Declaration of Independence. The names were kept
secret for six months for each new the full meaning
of that magnificent last paragraph, in which his signature pledged
his life, his fortune, and his sacred honor. Fifty six
(23:17):
men placed their names beneath that fledge. Fifty six men
knew when they signed that they were risking everything. They
knew if they won this fight, the best they could
expect would be years of hardship and a struggling nation,
And if they lost, they'd face a hangman's rope.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
The first I've been destroying the black community is to
dismantle the black family.
Speaker 4 (23:41):
The Michael Berry Show, why don't we ask.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Missus Willie Brown if Kamala Harris cares about Black families.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
We'll use any excuse to play Paul Harvey because we
get to listen to him with you. We love Paul Harty.
Paul Harvey and Russe Limbaugh are our two greatest influences
in what we do. We were talking about the signers
of the Declaration of Independence and the statement they made
and level of commitment they made, and Ramon reminded me well,
(24:12):
remember the Paul Harvey bit, you don't have to tell
me twice. So here is the second half of Paul
Harvey's beautiful, beautiful discussion of that issue.
Speaker 9 (24:22):
Fifty six men placed their names beneath that fledge. Fifty
six men knew when they signed that they were risking everything.
They knew if they won this fight, the best they
could expect would be years of hardship and a struggling nation.
And if they lost, they'd face a hangman's rope. But
(24:43):
they signed the pledge, And here is the documented fate
of that gallant.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Fifty six.
Speaker 9 (24:52):
Carter Braxton of Virginia, wealthy planter, trader, saw his ships
swept from the seas to pay his debts.
Speaker 5 (24:59):
He lost his home and all of his properties, and
died in rags.
Speaker 9 (25:04):
Thomas Lynch Junior, who signed that pledge, was a third
generation rice grower, aristocrat, large plantation owner. After he signed,
his health failed his wife and he set out for
France to regain his failing health. Their ship never got
to France was never heard from again. Thomas McKean of
Delaware was so harassed by the enemy that he was
(25:27):
forced to move his family five times in five months
he served in Congress without pay, his family in poverty
and in hiding. Vandals looted the properties of Ellery and
Climber and Hall and Gwinnett and Walton and Hayward and
Rutledge and Middleton. Thomas Nelson Junior of Virginia raised two
million dollars on his own signature to provision our allies
(25:51):
the French fleet. After the war, he personally paid back.
The loans wiped out his entire estate, and he was
never reimbursed by his government. In the final battle for Yorktown,
he Nelson urged General Washington to fire on his Nelson's
own home, which was occupied by Cornwallis.
Speaker 5 (26:10):
It was destroyed.
Speaker 9 (26:12):
Thomas Nelson Junior had pledged his life, his fortune, and
his sacred honor. The Hessians seized the home of Francis
Hopkinson of New Jersey. Francis Lewis had his home and
everything destroyed, his wife imprisoned. She died within a few months.
(26:32):
Richard Stockton, who signed that declaration, was captured, mistreated, his
health broken to the extent that he died at fifty one.
Speaker 5 (26:41):
His estate was pillaged.
Speaker 9 (26:43):
Thomas Hayward Junior was captured when Charleston fell. John Hart
was driven from his wife's bedside while she was dying.
Their thirteen children fled in all directions for their lives.
His fields and gristmill were laid waste for more than
a year. He lived in forests and caves, and returned
home after the war to find his wife dead, his
(27:05):
children gone, his property's gone, and he died a few
weeks later of exhaustion and a broken heart. Lewis Morris
saw his land destroyed, his family scattered. Philip Livingstone died
within a few months from the hardships of the war.
John Hancock history remembers best due to a quirk of fate,
(27:25):
rather than anything. He stood for that great sweeping signature
attesting to his vanity.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
Towers over the others. One of the wealthiest men in
New England.
Speaker 9 (27:36):
And yet he stood outside Boston one terrible night of
the war, and he said, burne Boston. Though it makes
John Hancock a beggar if the public good requires it.
So he too, lived up to the pledge of the
(27:58):
fifty six. They were long to survive. Five were captured
by the British and tortured before they died. Twelve had
their homes from Rhode Island to Charleston sacked, looted, occupied
by the enemy, or burned. Two lost their sons in
the army, one had two sons captured. Nine of the
fifty six died in the war from its hardships or from.
Speaker 5 (28:20):
Its more merciful bullets. I don't know.
Speaker 9 (28:26):
What impression you had had of the men who met
that summer in Philadelphia, but I think it's important that
we remember this about them.
Speaker 5 (28:36):
They were not poor men. They were not wild eyed pirates.
These were men of means.
Speaker 9 (28:43):
They were rich men, most of them, and had enjoyed
much ease and luxury in their personal living. Not hungry men, certainly,
Not terrorists, not irresponsible malcontents, not fanatical incendiaries. These men
were prosperous men, wealthy landowners. They were substantially secure in
(29:08):
their prosperity. They had everything to lose.
Speaker 5 (29:13):
But they considered liberty, and this is as much as
I shall say about it.
Speaker 9 (29:18):
They had learned that liberty is so much more important
than security, that they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and
their sacred honors.
Speaker 5 (29:30):
And they fulfilled their pledge. They paid the price, and
freedom was born.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Anyway back to it, ramon, you want to take a
guess who, Joyce says, is concerned about the investigations. The
rank and file. Oh, the rank and file are concerned.
That's not true. I know some of the rank and
files of you as well. The rank and file live
in our neighborhoods. They do their jobs. They are not political.
(30:05):
The people who are political are comy who should end
up in prison. Andrew McCabe, who was who was fired
for lying and creating hoaxes and then he sued the
government and Department of Justice, handing him seven hundred thousand
under Biden. As a way, his point was, Hey, I
know what y'all did. Yeah, you caught me committing a crime,
(30:28):
but you know I committed some other crimes on your direction.
If you don't, I'm gonna sue y'all. If you don't
settle with me, give me all this money, then I'm
going to blow the whistle on it. And that's exactly
what happened. That wasn't a rank and file doing all that.
Peter Straisig with his little mistress Lisa Page. He he
(30:50):
wasn't a rank and file. These were guy. These were
highly political people in the top office. And that is
why our new FBI director, Cash Betel is moving those
out of there.
Speaker 8 (31:01):
And we've talked before, Joyce about morale. What does it say,
What is this this decision say when you reinvestigate, what
does it say to the people who worked on these
cases before.
Speaker 6 (31:12):
So, look, investigations can be reopened. That's not entirely uncommon,
but typically it happens when there's new evidence that means
that a case that previously couldn't be prosecuted should be reinvestigative.
Maybe there's new evidence here, but there's no indication in that.
From what we're seeing them say, this looks like they've
(31:34):
simply been reopened. Because in at least one case, the
cocaine found in the White House, President Trump has suggested
maybe it's Hunter Biden's and he wants to know who
it belonged to. And so this does nothing good for
the morale of individual agents. They've got cases to work on.
They're already under attack by this administration. Those of them
(31:54):
who worked on January sixth related cases that were assigned
to them have legitimate fears about their future. And so
now to see cases being reopened that have already been
disposed of, that I think is concerning to the rank
and file
