Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, time.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Time, luck and load.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
So Michael Arry Show is on the air.

Speaker 3 (00:43):
To the calls.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
We go, Mike, your thoughts on what you saw last night?

Speaker 4 (00:46):
Go ahead, sir, Yeah, Mike, Yes, go ahead, Yeah you're up, sir,
go ahead.

Speaker 5 (00:58):
Oh yes, okay.

Speaker 6 (01:01):
I made some notes on this doing the break.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
I like that.

Speaker 5 (01:07):
I watched the vate last time. Mike Colin Allred did
not answer why he switched positions, says that I.

Speaker 6 (01:15):
Think if Steve said early.

Speaker 5 (01:18):
He didn't address why he says he doesn't support boys
and girls restrooms, but he said he said he doesn't
support that, he doesn't support any of that stuff. But
I did go look at already backs on Tom he does.
The moderators, they did the best they could while trying

(01:39):
to keep their jobs. Why did they try to back already?
They have to because that's what they're bouts told. They
don't they don't have the luxury of a Tucker calls
and they just go out on the all. So they're
they're doing what the best they could. But what we
saw last night, people need to remember Alan Dershow had
said and he still says it to this day. The
Senator cruise is the most brilliant mind to come out of.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
Harvard Law School in his fifty years being there.

Speaker 5 (02:04):
So people need to remember that at they're listening this morning,
that we have Senator Cruz who is a brilliant attorney,
a brilliant mind as a senator, not just another US senator,
someone that can really help our country versus a football player,
a retired one nice guy. I'm sure that's just put

(02:27):
up there. Like you said, you get to be famous,
and it has some one liners. Who do you want
to pull apart? Use common sense, folks, Use common sense.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
Cindy here on the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead, Cindy.

Speaker 7 (02:45):
I I only gave it three minutes, and my thought
process was these are grown men, and I wondered how
this big football play from Baylor, I love Baylor could
stand there with a deer in the headlight, look in

(03:08):
his eyes, almost looking robotic and answering these questions. Yet
when Ted's hitting the mark, I mean Ted was hammering him,
he almost looked angry, like it could have taken some
control for him not to go over there and try
and throat Punchy. I just I was very impressed with Ted.

(03:31):
I love Ted, prayed over his bus the other night
whenever we were at the event, and it was it
was good stuff. So I'm so proud of you.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
Thank you, Cindy, Bud Bud, you're on the Michael Berry Show.

Speaker 6 (03:45):
Go ahead.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
Thank you for checking my call. Michael. I all right,
I watched from the very beginning and saw how cordial
Ted was during the during the intro and stuff. And
then I'm sure order begin to eviscerate Colin all Read
over the over the course of debate, and it was,

(04:08):
it was, it was amazing and that and that's the
reason why I watched the debate because Ted Cruz he
didn't have to he didn't have to dig back into
h uh, memorize answers or things like that. He knows
what he's talking about. When Colin kept saying he hadn't
done anything for Texas, and then tedri minored and then

(04:29):
he'd put together one hundred and eleven bills over the
course of his his tenure in DC. Uh, he just
did a masterful job of taking him apart.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
Well said, Elizabeth, you're on the Michael Barry Show. Go ahead, sweetheart.

Speaker 8 (04:49):
I thought Ted Cruise is discerated Colin all Red and
The one answer that I thought was the best was
on in Place because he talked about farmers and agriculture
and how much their things cost, their needs cost just

(05:10):
to grow the fruits and vegetables and the cattle that
we have in our state. Othough, it's a superb answer.
And I never hear anybody talking about agriculture, and we
depend on it. It's our food source. So that's it.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah, that's a very It's a discussion I'd like to
have at some point. I'll come back to that.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
Mike.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
You're on the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead.

Speaker 6 (05:40):
Oh, Median, I had a question.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
Hold on, Mike, let me get these others on. If
I have time, I'll come back to you. John, You're
on the Michael Berry Show.

Speaker 6 (05:47):
Go ahead.

Speaker 3 (05:50):
Uh, yes, already there was. He was way out of
his element, you know, no question about that. And I
thought the best takeaway from the debate was Serator Cruz's
closing statement. I believe it was the last sentence of

(06:14):
his closing statement where he said this election is about
changes which could happen in the future if he's not elected.
He's said that the Democrats want to expand the Supreme Court.

(06:38):
He also said that they want to destroyed the constitution.
And I thought those points were excellent, that there wasn't

(06:58):
about himself being elected, it was about the future of
the country.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Yeah it. I don't know. I meet so many people
who are just good people who don't understand what this
political class is doing. And and they don't understand a

(07:33):
Kamala Harris or a Colin all Red, these people that
are placed there as purely an actor and and there,
and they know that's why they're there. Colin all Red
is not a bright guy. I don't I don't think
anybody is shocked to learn that that was on full

(07:53):
display last night. But just like Kamala, they give him
some lines to use and he falls back on those lines. Look,
some football players are not real smart. They wouldn't score
well on an SAT or ACT or an IQ test,

(08:15):
but they're fully capable of taking orders. They can read
the playbook, and they can show up and they can
be on the field where they need to be at
that time. That is not independent thought. It's not a
high level of thinking all Red is. The problem with
Allred is not that he's done. The problem with Allred

(08:41):
is because he's done. He's thrown in his lot with
the Nancy Pelosi's and the overlords, and he's going to
do what they say to do and not think about it.
And that makes him scary.

Speaker 3 (08:52):
And you're giving him the insa Michael Erry because you're
a public Paul.

Speaker 9 (08:58):
Revere kind of ring in the warning.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
I kept everything inside.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
Paul.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
You're on the Michael Berry Show. The we're talking about
the debate last night where and I've asked folks to
give their thoughts. This will be our last segment on this,
but I have hold on. I'm gonna come to you
in just a moment, but I have I have talked

(09:25):
to different people from different ends of the spectrum, and
even Democrats are not saying they thought already dialed well
or or whatever. And it crossed my mind the last
time somebody ended a Democrats political career in Dallas like
Ted Cruz did to Colin all Read last night. They

(09:47):
were standing at the window of a school book depository.
It was that bad, Paul Europe.

Speaker 6 (09:55):
Yeah, yeah, how you doing, Alread? Fotball player, I'll bring
you this down like this, Colin.

Speaker 9 (10:03):
Okay.

Speaker 6 (10:03):
Colin al Read was the Dallas Cowboys at Ted Cruz
was Detroit lones.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
What was the final score of that game? It was
like forty seven. You know, it's so sad because I
have I have many many friends who are Cowboys fans,
and they're the kind of fans this is the worst
way to be. They're the kind of fans that, no

(10:33):
matter how disappointing the season is, as it starts, we
get into the summer, they start believing Jerry Jones's hype.
Oh man, this year we got cdee lambback. We got
Dack back. Yeah, you got Dac back. That that's exactly right. No, no, no, no, no, no.
This year, this year they got Dak a psychiatrist and

(10:57):
a foot surgeon, and a new act a new elbow,
and a good line and good receivers and a new coordinator.
And remember we got a new stadium. You know, he
hadn't even really explored that stadium yet. And they're all
excited and and the build up and their whole life

(11:21):
is caught up in this. And then God help them
if they win that first week they Super Bowl, and
there's always somebody that that does that graphic with Dak
Prescott on it and says, you know, Dallas Cowboys eliminated
and they started it in the first week and it

(11:41):
just gets and now it's I don't know what their
record is right now, but it's it's bad. It's where
they two and four? Is that right? I think they're
two and four? Anyway, Tom, You're up, Go ahead, Michaels.

Speaker 6 (11:54):
The first thing I need to do is congratulate you
on a national radio show.

Speaker 1 (11:59):
Thank you, sir.

Speaker 6 (12:00):
That's wonderful. That is wonderful. And as far as the
cruise last night, he got him good. He gave him
the what is it allredfacts dot com? I'd like to
know how many hits were put on that website. But
speaking of are you aware of this story with Liz

(12:21):
Cheney conversing with the witnesses during the January sixth hearings
on the text machines that's breaking this morning, and she
had conversations with Cassidy Huffman, and she the one that
said to Donald Trump beat the Secret serviceman in the
head in the suburban.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
I don't remember the name of that person, but I
remember he was supposedly they tried that one out, that
that he was taking over the beast, the Secret Service vehicle,
and he was gonna ram it into the Yeah. Boy,
they they get creative, don't they.

Speaker 6 (13:00):
Well, i'd like you to have your wonderful staff of
twenty seven people there at research test story. Maybe you
can talk about this afternoon on your next no radio
talk show.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
Thank you, Terry, you're earl to Michael Berry show.

Speaker 10 (13:18):
Yes, thank you, Michael Lessen. Just the fact that already
agreed to do the debate, knowing his lack of knowledge
on the points shows that he played too many downs
without a helmet.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
Well, you know what happens. You can always count on this.
Whoever is demanding a debate is losing. That is a
rule of thumb in politics. Whoever is demanding a debate
is losing, and they have to do something to try
to turn that around. And a debate because if you

(13:53):
just pour more money into the race, the chances are
you're talking to your audience and they're talking to their audience,
and you've got to get some people in the middle converted.
And the fastest, best way to do that is an
amazing debate performance. So all Red was in a difficult
position because this race is way closer than it's supposed

(14:17):
to be. And that is purely and simply an amazing
campaign that the Californians are running for Colonel Red and
they are. I give him credit for that. They've tucked
him away. He does not leave his house. That's a fact.
He does not leave his house. And they are pouring
money into an ad spent every day. People say to me,

(14:40):
ten needs to be on TV. More ten needs to
be on radio. More ten needs to be Okay, let
me tell you. You need to drive a Rolls Royce
and your house needs to have more square footage. There's
a guy down the street that his house is bigger,
and his car is more expensive, and he has a
plane and he has a The money's not there. Where
do you think the money's coming from. What happened was

(15:04):
John Tester, Democrat in Montana, had no business being a
Senator from Montana. These old Democrat holdouts, rural democrats in
most of the states went ahead and figured out, you're
not a Democrat anymore. But in Montana, Tester was still

(15:28):
holding on like mansion in West Virginia, and they knew
that it was going to be a problem Tester might
not Well. Now they realized Tester can't win. They're going
to lose that Democrat seat. So they have devoted. They
have turned the artillery on this seat, and they have
opened up the spigots. Go through and look because I

(15:50):
have go through, and look at where the money's coming
from for Colin already, it's not Texans contributing. It's Californians.
They want this seat, which is crazy, isn't it? You think?
And how bad you think? How bad California is right now?

(16:12):
You think what a hell hole it's become. And yet
they want to make Texas that way. And as long
as Texans keep their eye on the prize that that's
what's happening, will be in good shape. But when you
get the lendas, who will go, well, I see that

(16:34):
this is California versus Texas, but I'm not gonna vote
for Texas. I won't vote for California, but I'm not
gonna vote for Texas because I'm going to figure out
a way not to do what's in my best interest.
When you realize that the forces at play are so
much bigger, more powerful, more funded, more clever, more devious,

(17:00):
and you could ever stand to be, that's when you
have to retreat to a place of what do I know?
And why do I know?

Speaker 11 (17:08):
It?

Speaker 6 (17:09):
All? Right?

Speaker 1 (17:09):
Here's what I know. All read votes with Nancy Pelosi
one hundred percent of the time. Cruz supports Trump and
fights to close the border. All right, those are the
two things I know. All right, yeah, but abortion over
here and an abortion in Texas? Oh abortion? Okay, Well,
then I won't vote. How can people let themselves be

(17:38):
duped to that extent? It's not nice to call people stupid,
but some people are stupid.

Speaker 6 (17:50):
I will die for this country.

Speaker 11 (17:52):
I will die for this class, the Michael Berry Show,
the big honor to be living in the United States,
Sharon and.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
I will say one more call on this, and that's
because of Jeff on the black Line. We're just pandering.

Speaker 3 (18:13):
Can you hear me?

Speaker 9 (18:14):
Mike? Not very well? Okay, are you there now?

Speaker 1 (18:22):
What were you doing?

Speaker 9 (18:25):
I was swinging, uh, switching over from my blue tooth.
I had to get to the side. Listen. I just
wanted I just needed to share this with you. Uh uh?
How concerned the Democratic Party really is about the black boat.
I attended an event this past weekend, the Classic, The

(18:45):
Black Classic High School Picnic, consistent of Yates, Booker, t.
Washington were than Cashmere Wheatley and guess who shows up,
our dear friend, Rightney ellis photographer in tow, photographer in tow,
and he decides this thing's been going on for fourteen years,

(19:10):
but he decides to show up this year, and he
wants all of us to know that he has renamed
the lake out at Tom Bass Park after Reverend Bill Lawson,
and that they're gonna erect a statue to our honorable

(19:32):
friend George Floyd out there as well. My question was, well,
who's paying for it? Yeah? Yeah, I figured you you
might not have known. I said, wow. I told my
wife when I saw him, I said, oh boy, thing's
in trouble. He's he's he's out here pander into the
few blacks.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
But nothing improves the lives of blacks quite like a
new statue. Where do you cast that?

Speaker 9 (19:58):
Chelsea Wait? I forget you much, not a known. I
wanted to get to your Monday to tell you. But
you had such a great program going all week long,
very informative spot on everything you talked about relative to
what we needed to hear and know, so I thought

(20:20):
i'd throw it in the day. I didn't watch the debates.
I didn't need to. My mind's been made up, not
even a statue out at Tom Bass Park is gonna
make me change my mind. Have a good day, Mike.
I just want to tell you that I got to
get back to work.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
A lot of racial shit, a lot of racials was
the big thing. Oh j oj was big. That's right.
Black people too happy, White people too mad, White people back.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
This is boo.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
See white people that mad since they canceled mash. Black
people wait too?

Speaker 6 (20:57):
Have we was?

Speaker 1 (21:01):
We want? What the did we win? Every day I
look at the mail box, my O J. Prize not
imagine you're Rodney Ellis. You gotta go out and talk
to all these black folks that went to black high
schools that live in this area. And your message to

(21:23):
them is, hey, hey, I gotta statue for George Floyd.
Think about that, Think about what jeff just told you.
There's only two responses to that. One is oh good, good,

(21:45):
we got us something. Yeah, they got all the Thomas
Jefferson's and Abraham Lincoln's and Sam Houston's. We got us
of George Floyd. Oh yeah, next year, I'll meet you
over to jar Flood statue because we got us pluing.

Speaker 3 (22:02):
He won us. He just like us.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
Here a felon got twenty babies he ain't never met,
committing a felony, took an overdose and died, and his
family got rich off of it. He hit the jackpot.
Now that's the man we be proud of. Thank you
riding it, you honoring us. That's one option. The other

(22:26):
one is, wait a second, did that well? I won't
say the word they would say, did that food? Just
come out here and tell us. He named a monument
for a guy who had to leave Houston after he

(22:47):
got out of prison for armed robbery of a pregnant
woman an arm burglary, uh technically a robbery on a
pregnant woman putting a gun in her belly. Went to
prison lifetime of crime. Everybody in town knows he's got
babies he never saw. I got stories from people who

(23:09):
worked extra jobs security. The day of the funeral, they
were all these all of Georgia's babies were here, and
the moms would have to tell them that's a picture
of your daddy because they'd never met him. He wasn't
in Mogadishu, Minneapolis on vacation. He left because all the

(23:32):
cops knew him here. I've had cops tell me you know,
you know, as Shirley qu Lickor has taught you, people
have a street name. Nobody's real name is, you know,
Daryl Wayne Smith on the street. Their biscuit Head, Little

(23:54):
Trippy and Catman and Spiderhead, and they all got Well.
The problem is when you've been arrested enough times, the
cops they all know, they got all your names written
down and they can spot you from a mile away.
Oh that's old George Floyd over there. I arrested him

(24:16):
three months ago. Imagine the black folks going, see this,
this is what white people are seeing of us. White
people think that this is what we want as a hero,
because that's what Rodney's given them.

Speaker 9 (24:28):
Yellow Prosen's putting on the stag.

Speaker 8 (24:31):
The Michael Show, the yellow brand pudding pops, maybe with
the goodness of real jello pudding to.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
I was just reading an article about a meeting that
was held at the Manger Hotel in San Antonio one
hundred eight years ago. I thought got me to thinking,
I wonder how old the Manger was nineteen sixteen. What
year you think the Manger Hotel was built? Eighteen seventy,

(25:05):
right after the Civil War. Okay, you understand The difference
between eighteen seventy and nineteen sixteen is a world of
difference in advancements in technology and building materials. You think
it was built in eighteenth huh Okay, So you think

(25:28):
the Civil War ends and they build a Manger Hotel.
What we're tired. No, it wasn't eighteen seventy. They opened
the hotel opened it in eighteen fifty nine. It was

(25:50):
opened before the Civil War began. A two story, fifty
room hotel. It became a stopping point on the Chisholm
Trail cattle drivers. Cattle drovers would replenish their supplies while

(26:11):
cattlemen sold and bought their livestock. Up until this point,
the accommodations in San Anton were boarding houses and there
were few breweries. The Manger Hotel, opened in February of
fifty nine, served as a meeting place for cattle barons
and was an immediate success. Cattle business transactions were made

(26:34):
over the years in the hotel lobby. A marker in
the present day hotel courtyard commemorates the Chisholm Trail. With
the beginning of the American Civil War, a large number
of Confederate soldiers were stationed at San Anton, creating a
need for more boarding houses to house them. The Manger
family put the building to use to aid the Confederate

(26:55):
war effort and shut down the hotel's guest rooms. They
kept the dining room opened to feed military personnel and
offered space for the care of wounded soldiers. Once the
war ended, the hotel resumed full operations After a little
over a decade of running the Manger Hotel. William Manger
died in eighteen seventy one. However, Marymanger and her son

(27:19):
Lewis continued to run the hotel and the brewery and
then it just goes through. On February nineteenth, eighteen seventy seven,
the first passenger train steamed into San Antone, which further
contributed to the growing success of the hotel. This allowed
for a higher volume of travelers through the city and

(27:40):
promoted the growth of the Alamo Plaza, which became the
location of San Antone's first federal post office, opened in
eighteen seventy seven. The hotel offered a mail chute on
each floor for guests to use. Outgoing mail was collected
and taken to the post office. Marymannger was aware that
the building was lacking in modern bathrooms, proper water closets,

(28:03):
or room service bells, and made these improvements. By eighteen
seventy nine, Mary Manger had gas lighting installed. Although she
and her son Lewis maintained the hotel as well as
they could, she was getting too old to manage the
business and her son was not interested in taking over.
Thus the decision was made to sell the hotel to
its original contractor, Major J. H. Kampman. It was sold

(28:27):
on November seventh, eighteen eighty one, for one hundred eighteen thousand,
five hundred dollars. And then it goes through, It went in,
It became derelict during World War One, and all the
way through World War II. Teddy Roosevelt drank and recruited
his rough riders. There there's all these interesting stories of

(28:51):
things that happened anyway. Fascinating hotel, fascinating story. Good stuff,
good stuff right there. Houston's Mayor John Whitmeyer is calling
for an expanded audit in light of the eight point
five million dollar corruption scandal earlier this year. With the

(29:11):
Midtown Tax Increment reinvestment zone. The city has one hundred
and eighty such zones. I'll go ahead and tell you
what nobody else will. Whipmeyer has been shocked by the
level of scandal and corruption they found at the city.
Sylvester Turner was running a criminal enterprise out of there.

(29:35):
Between Sylvester Turner and Rodney Ellis and Sheila Jackson, Lee
had her hands in this pie. You wouldn't believe what's
going on down there. You wouldn't believe how bad it is.
And this isn't a decline by neglect. This is a
criminal culture. And by the way, it bears noting, it

(29:58):
is a criminal culture that has engaged in these crimes
all while proclaiming their blackness. It isn't an accident that
these people have been saying, vote for me, I'm black.
They're questioning me. They're racists. These are the worst of

(30:20):
the worst. This is a setback for blacks. This is
an embarrassment for blacks. This is a black eye for blacks.
Who is because black folks are now going to be
perceived because of this nonsense as corrupt, self dealing, fraudulent people.

(30:49):
And trust me, this is why blacks are voting for Trump.
They've had enough of this, this gravy train, these these
business is these. By the way, Fort Ben County a
once well run, respected ethical county. Go look at the

(31:12):
stories Wayneolchafino has been doing. Go to go to YouTube
and look up Delchafino Consulting. You've got state reps, You've
got uh city employees, county employees, You've got you've got
a level of graft and corruption in Fort Ben County,
which they learned from the boss here in Harris County.

(31:34):
But this dumb, dumb KP. George and what they got going.
They've got a couple of Pakistani guys down there and
this little network of what they are, what they are doing,
it is inglorious.

Speaker 6 (31:48):
It is it is.

Speaker 1 (31:51):
It is third world level politics and theft. It's incredible
that it's been allowed to have happened for this long
because a lot of people don't want to speak up
about it. But the number of people. You've got one
guy who's not an engineer, he's a principal of an
engineering firm. He's not a lawyer, he's a principal of
a law firm, and he's all up in the business

(32:15):
of the same guy. He's a major player in all
sorts of firms that have all this county business. And
by the way, these firms are also cross pollinating into
Harris County business, the Harris County Independent School District. That's
why they didn't want Miles coming in here. That's why

(32:36):
the state had to take it over. This is all
a corrupt business like Detroit
