American people that will allow us to make America great.
Speaker 8 (02:23):
I guess, my friends, these ceremonial traditional portions of the
(02:45):
inauguration urring now to represent the peaceful transfer of power.
Speaker 7 (02:51):
The Biden is hosting the Trumps for tea. One friend wrote, Okay,
I have to admit it was pretty classy of Joe
to say welcome home to Trump upon arrival at the
White House. Joe Biden is very concerned with his legacy.
(03:15):
It's the sort of thing that I think a lot
of people underestimate the importance of.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
That.
Speaker 7 (03:26):
By tomorrow, Joe Biden has no formal authority, no power
any longer, and he will live out. I don't think
he'll live very long. I really don't. I think he's
in horrible shape, and I think I think he is
(03:50):
mindful of how he will be talked about and viewed,
and I think that to the extent he can possibly
do anything to improve. I hear your reaction through the ether. Well,
then he shouldn't have pardoned Fauci. The pardon of Fauci.
(04:15):
I don't know if he knows he pardoned Fauci. If
you listen to the interview that Mike Johnson did with
Barry Weiss of the Free Press where he talks about
trying to get a meeting. He came to be speaker
in I think the fall of twenty three, and he
(04:35):
for eight to ten weeks was trying to get a
meeting with President Biden. And he said, I know I'm
in the right here. I'm in the president's presidential succession line.
I'm second behind the I mean, come on, I need
to meet with the president. I'm leading the House. We've
(04:59):
got putententual war in multiple hotspots around the world. I
need to meet with the president. That's what's done. It's
always been done. And he realized that they were keeping
him from meeting the president, so he tells the press,
I can't meet with the president. The gatekeepers are preventing
me from meeting with the president. And that became the narrative.
(05:22):
So the meeting occurs and he arrives and he realizes,
to use his words, that this is an ambush. There's Kamala,
there's Chuck Schumer, there's Hakeem Jeffries. They go into the room,
and they're there to prevent Joe, to prevent him from
(05:46):
telling Joe what they're up to, because Joe has no idea.
And Joe Biden says speaker n I need a few
minutes together alone, and he said, you could have heard
a pin drop the looks on their faces. Oh my goodness,
Johnson's gonna tell him what we've been up to because
(06:07):
he had because they knew Joe Biden doesn't know what's
going on, because they're the ones that know what's going on.
So they had to get up and leave because this
is awkward. And Johnson is from Louisiana and he had
spoken to one of the liquified natural gas companies out
of Louisiana that morning, and he chose to use that
(06:29):
as an issue. He said, mister President, why would you
put a pause on expert exports of liquified natural gas
to Europe? That's very important to my home state economy
of Louisiana, but more importantly Europe desperately needs this LNG
and if we can't and won't give it to them
(06:51):
because you won't let us, you're pushing them into the
arms of Vladimir Putin, and that's funding the war. You're
helping Putin by preventing us from exporting LNG. And Biden said,
I'm not doing that, and he said, yes, mister President,
you are. No, I'm not. He said, I'm certain, looking
(07:14):
into his eyes. He had no idea that that was
being done. So he said, mister President, how about I
walk outside this room and get them to print the
executive order so you could read it. And he talks
about the fact that Joe is sitting there looking sort
of sad and confused because he had no idea they
(07:37):
were doing that. And I think that this is not
a Joe Biden's a good guy, because he's not. He's
an awful person, and he allowed this whole thing to happen.
He knew he had no business running in twenty twenty.
He'd had a brain aneurysm years before. He knew he
(07:58):
was shaky, he knew he he wasn't lucid. He knew
he had no business being the president, and so did
everybody around him, and now as he's walking out the door,
worried about his legacy, and he has to be worried
about the crimes committed that he doesn't know about and
those that he does. So he can't pardon everybody that's
(08:22):
heavy on his mind that he's trying to.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
Look classic, looking good while doing evil.
Speaker 7 (08:28):
The Michael Verryshoe Sindi Wrights z Are our senior adult
life group, had a class social on Friday night. We
(08:52):
themed it red white and blue. After eating our pot luck,
all the food was red, white and blue, red white
or blue, these senior adults, most eighty or older, were
asked to recite the pledge, followed by singing My country Tisathy.
They all, every single one of them, managed to get
(09:15):
to their feet and loud and proud, recited the pledge
and sang sir. It was a moving moment with a
generation forgotten. They are America. I'm proud to know them
and call them my friends. Peace, Cindy. One of the
(09:38):
things it bothered me most over the last four years
was talking to older people my mother included, and them
close to death and worried that this was the America
they had left us. This, This was what America had become,
(10:04):
and I just wish so many of them could have
lived to see. No, we're riding the ship. This thing
looked like it was going to crash into a mountain,
but we got it. We got it back up in
the air. Country's back on the right track, and Americans
(10:26):
made that happen. The people rose up against the powers
in Congress, the deep state, the media, the government. That's
hard to do because all the power would seem to
rest with those forces, and the people, with resilience and
(10:50):
consistency and fearlessness rose up. Sure Trump had to be
willing to do his part, but if Trump did his partner,
nobody else did, we wouldn't be here today. We would
not be here as we are today. And that's pretty awesome.
(11:13):
And it makes me happy to think how many people know, Hey,
I may not make it through the entirety of these
next four years, but this is a good time right now.
Every day somebody will send me an email. Please pray
for my mother, Please pray for my father. Sometimes it's
please pray for my child, Please pray for my husband.
My wife, she was just diagnosed with lymphoma or sarco.
(11:37):
This or it's just these awful, horrible, terrible things. And
I think to myself that at least it would be
a small comfort to know that the country's in better
hands than it was just a short time ago. At
least you can find some comfort in knowing that. Folks
(11:59):
that I know well in the intelligence and political communities
tell me that moving the inauguration inside was as much
a question of security as it was the cold. A
few Democrats whose entire job now is to be a
(12:22):
saboteur of the administration, just wherever they can gum up
the works, whatever they can do to sabotage. That's all
they're going to do. Try to take you off your game.
Vivek is out. Trump's fighting with this person. Trump's scared
he couldn't draw a crowd. One of the things they've
been pushing is that Trump moved it indoors because the
(12:45):
crowd would be too small. That's cute if you want
to find some way to talk Trump or to insult
Trump questioning the size of the inauguration crowd. That's what
got you in trouble the first place. Same group of people,
that's what got y'all in trouble in the first place
(13:06):
that it's not believable, it's not credible. Find something that
people might be willing to let their imaginations run wild.
This is probably the most heavily anticipated inauguration in my lifetime.
I mean that people are that excited about it. I'm
(13:28):
sure there were many people who were excited over Barack
Obama's inauguration because they had high hopes that we had
a black president or was perceived as a black president,
was presented as a black president. And how many folks,
particularly blacks, felt, Wow, we're seven percent of the population
and we've finally found our moment, and we've got a
(13:51):
guy who came from our midst to be the president. Now,
to a person, that group was terribly disappointed by the administration,
to a person, they were, but at that moment I
could understand. I can understand being being excited, being hopeful,
being optimistic, feeling that this was historic. In that sense,
(14:12):
it was historic, but for pure excitement of everything we
believe in manifested. I don't remember, of course, I don't
remember the eighty inauguration of Regan that well, I was
ten years old.
Speaker 9 (14:29):
But this.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
This is special, This is special. We will stay with
you live the whole show atrh will go to the
Fox News coverage at ten thirty, but that's an hour
for fucky. I'm Sheila j Aslee the Michael Verry Show.
You merely adopted the doc.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
I was boughted.
Speaker 7 (14:57):
I just saw idiot he presumably live of jd Vance
getting into the limits, will be carried over, driven over,
and he has a sort of all shucks nature to
(15:21):
the way he's looking out into the crowds, into the
buildings and surveying this moment. You know, you think this
is the guy who wrote Hillbilly Elegy, an autobiographical autobiographical
(15:48):
account of a life of family members addicted to drugs,
going to prison, dying early, living in the coal lands
Ohio and Kentucky. This is a guy who bared his soul.
Who would have ever guessed that this would become a bestseller,
(16:13):
a movie made of it, Glenn Close starring in it.
Here is a guy. I was talking about this yesterday
with some friends. The thing about jd Vance that he
represents is the idea of poverty, the idea of sadness,
the idea of privation. So often the media, everyone portrays
(16:40):
that as a black or an immigrant experience. But there
is a whole swath of America, much of its Scot's Irish,
that came to this country and has been for many generations,
particularly Kentucky, West Virginia, Tennessee, Ohio, Southern Ohio, and southern Indiana.
(17:03):
And here's a guy who comes from that tradition, who,
by all accounts, should not be where he is, certainly
should not have a Yale law degree, have made a
small fortune. I mean this, this is who served as
a marine. I mean this is President Trump and Joe
(17:23):
Biden are walking out, and Joe looks just frightened. He's
going to fall over to get into the limo should
be carried in. President Trump looking very strong, resolute, Biden
(17:45):
just barely muddling. And it has been announced that what
looks like a presidential signing desk has been placed inside
the arena, presumably for President Trump to sign executive orders
in front of the crowd. He has a series the
(18:08):
limo has now taken off. He has a series of
executive orders he has promised. Let me see if I
can pull those up that he has promised that he
has promised immediately to sign and put into effect, to
reinstate the remain in Mexico catch and release program, which
(18:31):
means that when we catch illegals here, we're not going
to let them loose. We're going to send them into Mexico.
They can wait there while their case is adjudicated. Mexico
doesn't want them, so Mexico will keep them from coming here.
If that happens, military will be directed to construct a
new phase of the border wall. Terminate the Biden orders
(18:52):
on energy drilling restrictions, return federal workers to in person work,
pause all offshore wind leases, end DEI hiring practices in
the federal government, and make it merit only. The motorcade
(19:12):
is on its way right now. Withdraw from the Paris
Climate Accord. Order every agency to remove all federal actions
increasing costs for Americans via deregulation. Suspend security clearances for
the fifty one officials who lied about the Hunter Biden
twenty twenty laptop story and a stab, and establish a
(19:36):
doze hiring freeze. You remember when the City of Houston
had a hiring freeze. Remember what happened. City of Houston
was broke, and so there was a freeze on hiring
all new employees, and somehow Sylvester Turner managed to get
(19:57):
an executive intern. I'll try in that special an executive
intern Marvin algamagu hired at one hundred thousand dollars at
the airport bypassing all of the standards, they are making
(20:17):
their way to Capital One Arena. The footage is of
the presidential limo the Beast, with President Biden and President
Trump in the vehicle to symbolize the peaceful transition of power.
This is going to be a very very interesting day.
(20:41):
President Trump promising last night in a speech that his
first day would be historic and that it would be
a day of action. Swift action was the word he used,
that it will be immediate. Presidents typically enjoy toasting and
(21:03):
dancing and the frivolity of a first day. But President
Trump knows better than that. You have a little over
one thousand days, about fourteen hundred days if you make
it through the entirety of your presidency, and that is
not very many to get this country back on its
(21:24):
feet again. And so good news. He's going to take drastic,
immediate action today as a sign that don't measure us
by our first one hundred days, which has been the
historical standard. Measure us by what we do right now?
(21:47):
What song do I think they're listening to? Probably the
village people? Yeah, why yeah, Joe? Have you ever heard
this one? Oh huh huh yeah, grumpop, there's a bad dude.
They are making their way toward. There are people out
(22:10):
on the streets. Cold as it is, there are people out.
I think it's a sad day in America that we
cannot ensure the safety by president and I think that
is the case.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
What l do you want?
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Right?
Speaker 3 (22:24):
What do you want?
Speaker 7 (22:25):
You want to?
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Just say the word and I'll throw asshole around them,
plug down, and we.
Speaker 6 (22:32):
Will restore and renovate our nations once great cities, making
them safe, clean, and beautiful again.
Speaker 8 (22:40):
We are Americans.
Speaker 6 (22:41):
Ambition is our heritage, Greatness is our birthright. But as
long as our energies are spent fighting each other, our
destiny will remain out of reach.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
And that's not acceptable.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
We must instead take that energy and use it to
realize our country's true potential and write our own thrilling
chapter of the Americans.
Speaker 7 (23:04):
Sorry, we can.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Do it together. We will unite.
Speaker 6 (23:06):
We are going to come together at success will.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Bring us together.
Speaker 7 (23:22):
The President has entered the arena with has entered the
building with Joe Biden at his side. They are now
walking down the hallways at Capitol Hill and making their
way to the proceedings, which will officially occur in about
(23:49):
forty minutes. A New York Times poll, and you got
to figure the New York Times is not exactly pro Trump,
revealed that sixty seven of Americans between the age of
eighteen and twenty nine are optimistic about Trump's presidency. Sixty
seven percent of Americans aged eighteen to twenty nine. That
(24:16):
is a staggering number of people, because those are the
people who have been told by teachers, by the media,
by Hollywood, by their favorite singer that Trump is the devil.
And those are people with no historical context to be
(24:38):
able to understand why they were lied to. That's a
beautiful thing. It just goes to show the power of
the media over the mind of everyday Americans has been reduced.
(24:58):
And I'll tell you Trump deserves a hell of a
lot of credit for that, understanding, as he did when
he began running in twenty fifteen that you were going
to have to undercut the authority, the credibility of the media,
because they're going to come after you, and the only
(25:19):
way to prevent them from being able to take you
down is to undercut their credibility from day one, and
no other politician has been able to do that, because
it was always believed that they were the eight hundred pounder,
that they were the ones that could make or break you,
so that what you would do would be make nice
(25:41):
with them, and if you made nice with them sufficiently,
maybe they'd go easy on you, and maybe just maybe
that end up liking you, giving them all the power. Well,
President Trump understood from the very beginning the long game.
He saw the long game, and it worked in twenty sixteen,
(26:02):
and by now in January of twenty twenty five, he
has so reduced their credibility that they are frantic, they
are horrified, and they are begging to be trusted again.
CBS is getting ready to settle yet another lawsuit. They
(26:22):
are entering the building they're filling up right now. If
you're wondering what's going on, CBS is settling another lawsuit,
media lawsuit for defamation against a military veteran. And I
think it's going to be Oh, I can't find the
case in front of me. But they are CBS is
(26:44):
looking to settle the lawsuit that President Trump brought against them,
partly because they have a merger that they're trying to
get passed, and they understand that's not going to happen
under the Trump administration. This is going to be a whopper.
I think it's going to end up being bigger than
the defamation settlement they entered into with ABC when George
(27:05):
Stephanopolis defamed President Trump multiple times. Oh, it's an interesting,
interesting visual for those of you driving who can't see it.
There is the spectacle, the sense that well, this is
really happening, and the look on the faces of the
(27:29):
leftists that Trump is back. They never would have believed
after everything they threw at him, including getting shot in
the head, another assassination attempt there in Palm Beach, at
mar A Lago at the golf course, the law fair,
(27:49):
the raid on mar A Lago, Fat Fanny Willis, and
the whole thing that was planned there. Letitia James, Attorney
General of New York cases against him, remember when they
wanted him to pay over four hundred million dollars to
put it up immediately? Who has that kind of cash
lean around or else they would begin selling off his properties.
(28:12):
Remember when they Merseeawan and his daughter getting rich off
this case. Oh, it's filling up. It's moving right along. Ramon,
what time did you say the actual swearing in is
going to be. It's about ten thirty five or so.
We will KTRH is going to pull away from us
(28:33):
and go to Fox News at ten thirty. So we
will still be doing our show for our other affiliates,
but KTRH will go to Fox News. That's the decision
they've made. So we won't be with you for the
last thirty minutes of the show today. We will be,
of course with you this evening, and there are a
(28:54):
number of things to cover. The one I'm most excited about.
You watch the footage of President bigs worn in. The
one I'm most excited about is the executive orders that
will go into effect immediately and the fact that President Trump.
Oh there comes Mike Pence.
Speaker 9 (29:14):
All alone, how very fitting, all alone somewhere he'd like
to jump up and say he's against abortion, but that's
all the only issue he knows anything about. Imagine that
the Democrats don't like you, and the Republicans don't like you.
Speaker 7 (29:27):
Really nobody likes you. But you're against abortion, you know
one thing, You've got that one thing your little pea
brain can hold on to as you're against abortion. So
this evening's program, and for those of you who will
be listening later on the podcast will focus on the
executive orders that President Trump will sign. Looks like he
(29:51):
is going to sign immediately in front of the crowds,
and that is exciting.
