Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time time, time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Very Show is on the air. Ambassador, thank you
for being here tonight.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
I mean, I just wonder, as someone who worked inside
the West Wing when Donald Trump was president, what is
it like for you to see his mugshot tonight?
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Well, I thought it was, as with most things Trump does,
carefully stage, they must have thought about what look they wanted.
He could have smiled, he could have looked benign. Instead,
he looks like a thug.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
FBI agents have rated the Marylynd home. A former Trump
National security advisor, John Bolton, happened at seven am this morning, shortly.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
After the raid began. FBI Director Cash Pattel posting on
X quote, no one is above the law. FBI agents
on a mission.
Speaker 5 (00:53):
But it is notable, guys that John Bolton, Ambassador bolton
security clearances were stripped earlier this year by President Trump.
Tulsey Gabber, the Director of National Intelligence, took that security
clearance away. They had concerns. The administration had concerns about
Ambassador Bolton still being able to access some of these
documents and have some of those security clearances. It's also
(01:14):
notable that John Bolton has a security detail as well,
because of the threats from Iran on his life. That
security detail, that government, federal paid security detail, was also
taken away by President Trump.
Speaker 6 (01:52):
Post carrier.
Speaker 7 (01:57):
Were.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
I think a lot of Republicans right now just wish Cash, Bettel,
Tulsey Gabbard, and a number of other Trump nominees that
just go away.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
There was a probe going on when Prisidon Trump was
in office last time because John Bolden wrote a book
and he violated his NDA. The President said in doing
it and he felt as though they were classified information
in that book. The probe dropped when Joe Biden became president.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
I don't think he cared about the classification system. I
don't think he appreciated the sensitivity of this information, and
he didn't appreciate the sensitivity of how it was often acquired,
the so called sources and methods. So this had been
brief to him before I arrived, it was repeated frequently.
I think it simply had no impact on him whatever.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Giving a sense of where you think the truth wise
with respect to Trump's intelligence carelessness and the degree to
which he might have brought motive to bear on taking
these documents out of the way as of keeping them
for this.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Long at mar Laga, Well, it's very hard to speculate
on motive other than that he liked cool things. He
saw things that he so he wanted to take them,
and he was pretty much able to take them, and
not just on classified information matters, on all kinds of
things that crossed his desk. Some days he liked to
(03:53):
eat a lot of French fries. Some days he took
classified documents. He wanted them. Why did he want them?
Because he could get them.
Speaker 8 (04:02):
That is the voice of John Bolton, who was very,
very eager to bring down Donald Trump. He failed, but
now his home and office have been raided. And the
story that is making the rounds in DC and in
media circles with relative credit credibility is that he was
(04:27):
selling secrets. The belief is through the qataris there's a
photo that has emerged of him in Doha very close
to a drop site and meeting site for the Katari government,
a government that has shown a willingness to pay big
money for American intelligence, And the allegation is that he
(04:50):
was getting paid big money for selling America's intelligence. Remember,
we've got the best intelligence presumably in the world, and
it's worth a lot of money to countries. Rather than having,
rather than being able to accumulate it themselves, they just
buy hours by sellout. John Bolton, a serial butt sniffer,
(05:12):
registered sex offender with a long rap sheet, has been
arrested once again for another sniffing incident in the southern
California area. He was arrested for a similar incident last month.
The story from ABC seven in Los Angeles.
Speaker 9 (05:26):
To a disturbing story of a registered sex offender who
has been arrested again. He made headlines for sniffing women
in the past. Thirty eight year old Calice Crutter was
rearrested Wednesday after reports of yet another sniffing incident at
a Walgreens in Burbank. This is video of prior incidents.
You can see him coming up behind that woman. Crowder
(05:47):
was already on parole and has a documented history of
similar arrests for lud conduct in both Glendale and Burbank
dating back to twenty twenty one.
Speaker 6 (05:56):
Looking at that pictures off that you were breaking me
for a moment. I don't think arresting a person was
clear of mental health issues is the answer. Clearly, he
needs a program that's going to keep him, that's going
to guide him in a right direction.
Speaker 9 (06:13):
And Crowder has been charged with a felony and is
now being held without bail.
Speaker 8 (06:20):
Wonder how that guy votes? He goes around sniffing people's butts,
He gets arrested for sniffing people's butts. I mean, where
do you go from there? How do you fix that guy?
Speaker 10 (06:44):
You know?
Speaker 8 (06:45):
You have to wonder he's got parents, missus Jones, Yes,
it's his officer Smith lapd Oh, this isn't about Bobby again,
is it? I'm sorry, but it is? He kill himself?
No worse? Did he get arrested again for sniffing people's butts? Man,
(07:07):
I'm sorry he did. Bond has said it fourteen dog bones.
If you could come down and bail him out, I mean,
or maybe he's just misunderstood, maybe he identifies as a dog.
Speaker 11 (07:25):
Order in the court State versus Barkiy Sniffstein, Yes, sure, Hona,
my client Barkie here is ridiculed for simply being misunderstood. Misunderstood, Counsel,
your client is a serial butt sniffer. He's accused of
literally walking up to people and sniffing their rear ends
without consent.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Also, he's accused of public.
Speaker 11 (07:45):
Urination on a fire hydrant and pooping on a sidewalk.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Your client is disgusting, not judge.
Speaker 11 (07:49):
Hear me out now, My client, Balki Sniffstein, is just
doing what is natural in his habitat.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
You see, my client identifies as a knie aka.
Speaker 11 (08:00):
A do Dear lord, what might be disgusting to you
is just a normal reaction for Barky here. When you
and I see a friend, a dear loved one, we
give them a hug. Barki here, well, he just likes
to give folks a little honey hello.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
If anything, my client's a good boy.
Speaker 11 (08:15):
I'm telling you it's time to stop being so rough
on my client.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
You see what I did there, Dear God, this might
be the lowest point of my career. Sentences.
Speaker 11 (08:24):
Barky stays out of all dog parks for two years
and let's call it a slap on the nose with
a newspaper. What the hell is that?
Speaker 1 (08:32):
That's Barkie's family. Come on, guys, let's go celebrate. You
get some grooming. I'm moving to Texas. This is.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
I know.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
What's your name?
Speaker 7 (08:44):
You say, Michael Buddy.
Speaker 8 (08:47):
Drunk days drunk DAYE Feeling is his family has a
lot of money in Beaumont. My brother lived off feeling
at and some people say failing, some people say feeling
p h E l A N. Feeling Investments owns a
(09:09):
good part of Beaumont and all the way up through
Jasper County, Orange and drunk Dad was always it. A
lot of rich families have that kid who is sort
of a good for nothing and you know, they get
dwi's and they get arrested, and they they don't do
(09:32):
well anywhere, and they cause problems for daddy, and daddy
has to put them in a job, and then they
screw that up and eventually they end up coming to
work for the family. Well, drunk Dad followed that pattern
to a t. And drunk Dad was never happier than
posting pictures of himself at the University of Texas and
the expensive seats his daddy had bought in his little
(09:55):
Texas get up with his cowboy boots and his perfectly
pressed pants and his U T shirt with his other
frat buddies. That was drunk day that he Drunk Day
could do. That, he could do that, he could he
could be at the game and drink and do his
do his horns up, and that that was you know,
until Gabriel blew his horn.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
That was drunk day.
Speaker 8 (10:15):
But he had no business. He could be a state rep.
You have one hundred and fifty state reps. You can
have some you know, some goobers here and there. There's
a there's a fair number of guys that are there
that are not the sharpest pencils in the pack. But
what happened was it was maneuvered to put him in
as speaker because he could be controlled. And then of
(10:36):
course he was drunk when he was holding the gavel,
and he madger clared under the and he made a
lot of enemies with some really anti bass stuff, anti
Maga stuff he did. And of course we told you
last week that he was very upset that we were
(10:56):
making memes. He he wrote a bill. It didn't pass,
but we heard from every news outlet in the state
because they said it was it was designed to get me,
because he didn't want to be made fun of. But
as we told you last week, he had resigned and
or retired. He will not be running for reelection and
(11:18):
he has decided to bury the hatchet. So we got
this message.
Speaker 12 (11:24):
Her, Michael, this is more Dave failing the Moore Dave failing.
I want to be the first to tell you something
side news backle Berry. I sided to hang up the
gavel after five secuted terms. You heard it here versus
our secret Backleberry, you're first one to know. Heysweet us.
(11:49):
Hope it didn't embarrasse my family too much. They bought
me to see you know, they're always told me I'm
an idiot. I'm a I'm an idiot. Wow.
Speaker 13 (12:04):
I hate those backup people.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
They're nasty, But I love you.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
Thank you for.
Speaker 12 (12:09):
Being such a supportive corner fighter for me in corner
of my boxer. Thank you, Michael. I'm not sure what
I'm gonna do now because I've I've really done much
at all. Frankly, I think I might be a little
bit on the lazy side when two things I know.
(12:31):
One it's five o'clock somewhere and the other one I
am presidently somewhere.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
So you know what that means?
Speaker 13 (12:44):
Oh, would you look at the time, I pardoner, bring
me a couple of shots of cossaws cossa zuli saquilo
while I'm still on government te.
Speaker 7 (12:58):
Time.
Speaker 12 (12:58):
Celebrate all right, Marchael Berry. Let's go play pickleball and
shue me man, doubles match. Call me back, man, I'm retiring.
Where's my cossa Zuli?
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Oh give me whatever of Besty car.
Speaker 10 (13:20):
Well.
Speaker 8 (13:22):
It can only get worse at this point. Sadly, we
love Chuck Norris, don't get me wrong, and we don't
have any problem with people getting a cameo from Chuck Norris.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Chuck Norris is cool.
Speaker 8 (13:33):
That's a personal call through the website. You pay him
and he says what you want. But when you get
a Chuck Norris cameo for your retirement, let that be
a private thing. Don't post that to social media as
if Chuck Norris called you out of the blue.
Speaker 14 (13:52):
Hey, daid Chuck Norris here, thank you for serving Texas,
my friend. Good luck in the next chapter of your
life in twenty two. All the people that walk this
journey with you are just as grateful for you as
you are for them. The future is bright for Southeast
Texas and the great state of Texas.
Speaker 8 (14:12):
Ouch. I'm afraid Dad wrote that himself. The worst part
is I'm afraid it wasn't even a family member trying
to cheer him up. I'm afraid drunk Dad wrote that
himself and then posted it to his social media site
as if Chuck Norris called him on his own Even
(14:35):
Texas Monthly that loves nothing more than an anti Trump
Republican establishment swamp creature. Even Texas Monthly there has been
so nice as if drunk Date is the ideal Republican
blasted him, saying, quote, this seems like an unnecessary self own.
(14:56):
It's like Jeb Bush not just asking people to please,
but offering, but also offering to pay them to do so.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
So here's my pleasure to you.
Speaker 7 (15:07):
I will be a commander in chief that will have
the back of the military.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
I won't trash talk.
Speaker 7 (15:13):
I won't be a divider in chief or an agitator
in chief. I won't be out there blowharden talking a big,
big game without backing it up. I think the next
president needs to be a lot quieter, but send a
signal that we're prepared to act in the national security
interests of this country to get back in the business
of creating a more peaceful world.
Speaker 8 (15:32):
Please clap, oh man. That's almost as bad as the
fact that when they went to Barbara Bush, whose husband
had been president and her son had been president, and
they said, do you support Jeb running for president? And
she said no. Jeb Bush was the Dade feeling of
(15:58):
his family. I don't know that he's a little slow,
but the question has been.
Speaker 11 (16:06):
Asked very brigade activate the Michael Barry Show.
Speaker 8 (16:15):
Show July fourth was the Pervil flood, the horrible tragedy
that befell so many young folks and families. Pat Green's
brother and his family among them, a teacher at Kingwood
(16:39):
High School among them. But the early stories that captured
the nation's imagination, and maybe just because young girls are
so innocent and precious and it it really captured the
(16:59):
heartstrings of the country. What happened in Camp miss It.
There were other locations. I was surprised how many connections
we had to so many of the kids that were there,
either through my kids being friends with them, knowing them,
(17:19):
going to school with them, having youth activities with them.
And then a lot of the dads, because a lot
of the dads are about my age or a few
years younger, and they also have other kids, and some
of those other kids were in school with or played
ball with my boys over the years, or we knew
(17:41):
through business organizations or different things. I did not know
Matthew Childress, but I knew people quite a few who
knew him, and my kids knew his daughter, Chloe Childress,
who was eighteen, who was a camp counselor at Camp Mystic.
(18:03):
And so here we are, seven weeks later, and we're
finally starting to see what I expected to see much earlier.
And I can guarantee if my child had been in
one of those camps, I would have been out there.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
You would have.
Speaker 8 (18:19):
But I'm a loudmouth, and I have no filter, and
I lead with my heart. You know, most people are
not like that. Most people are a little more reserved, and
they wait until at the right time, and they do
it in cleaner, more sophisticated language than perhaps I would use.
(18:40):
But I expected this moment to come, and I think
it's a healthy moment. You don't have to agree with
what he says, but I think it's I think it's
healthy to have these conversations. So Matthew Childress is the
father of eighteen year old Chlod Childress, who was a
counselor at Camp Mystic who perished, and he says I
(19:01):
taught Chloe to obey authority at Camp Mystic that got
her killed. He wrote an editorial that reads, quote, my
daughter was one of two counselors that needlessly passed away
at Camp Mystic during the early morning hours of July fourth,
along with twenty five young campers. The important word there
(19:22):
is needlessly. He writes. She died because she followed directions.
The instruction from camp leadership was to stay in your cabin.
She did what I taught her to do, obey orders.
While the camp managed to evacuate others all around. Bubble In,
(19:42):
bubble In was her cabin. The largest mass casualty in
summer camp history did not happen by chance. It was
the result of complacency, having no plan, little training, no systems,
and no response when second grade campers and counselors like
(20:02):
Chloe needed those things most. It happened because we have
allowed youth camps to self regulate, to operate without the
safeguards we've come to expect of every daycare, every school,
and every other child care facility in Texas. Stay in place.
That's what Chloe was told to do, and it's what
Texans cannot do now. We need new laws, and we
(20:26):
need them urgently instead of moving my daughter into her dorm.
On August fourteenth, I was at the Texas Capital alongside
more than twenty other grieving families who also lost their
daughters at Mystic. We were there pleading with state leadership
for their help so that a repeat of this tragedy
could not happen to anyone else in the future. We
(20:47):
were encouraged by their words of support and they promised
to take action. I understand that we live in Texas.
We were about small government, parental empowerment, and low taxes.
Our state believes ineping regulations to a minimum to ensure
that businesses can thrive without unnecessary regulatory hurdles.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
But as the.
Speaker 8 (21:08):
Deaths at Camp Mystics show, youth camps cannot be allowed
to self regulate and the time to act is now.
Governor Abbott made camp safety the number one agenda item
this special session, and it should be a top priority
for every responsible adult in our state. The changes we
need are not political, they are not expensive. In fact,
(21:30):
most other youth serving organizations must already meet these requirements.
They are common sense measures that everyone should be able
to agree to so that camps can thrive into the future.
While providing critical safety protection for all Texas children. Number
one prevention, No child should sleep in a floodplain daycare
(21:50):
and school sitting. Sorry, daycare and school siting laws already
prohibit such dangers. Camps must meet the same standard. Number
two Warning, A simple flood or weather alert system with
backup communication could have saved lives. Instead, the camp had
no alarm, no warning, and no way to phone the cabins.
(22:13):
Number three Planning and training. The official plan at Mystic
was to stay in place, but the girls who died
were the ones who followed that plan. Training should prepare
staff in campers to act, not to wait in danger.
There was also no coordination with first responders, no lighted
evacuation paths, no exit signs in an emergency. Confusion kills.
(22:39):
There are basic protections that all parents want and should
demand when they entrust their child to a summer camp.
Matthew Childress, father of Chloe Childrens, I have said this
before and I will say it again for any parent
(23:00):
who lost their child in those floods who wants to
share your story. It does not necessarily have to be
advocacy for summer camp change, but for any parent who
lost your child in those floods. Who wants to share
your story about your child, you are welcome to call
(23:23):
the show and we will put you on and have
that conversation. I received a call from the parent of
one of the girls who perished, a young girl, I
think she was only six years old, and they wanted
the not a call. I received an email. Everything goes
through the email Michael Berryshow dot com, and they wanted
(23:45):
the name of my friend who makes the heritage films,
and they said, we want to make a heritage film
about our daughter while it's fresh, because we want her
younger daughter to know what kind of person she was
as the younger daughter grows older. And so I forwarded
it to Chance and I didn't ask anything other than
(24:09):
take good care of these people, which I knew he
would do. And of course I later learned that he
did not charge them for that. They're not cheap. They
involved a lot of time. But I warned the father.
I said, look, I'm gonna send this to him and
he's a crier like me. And the father's response was,
he didn't charge us, he's awesome, and yeah, he's a crier.
(24:32):
I guess the dads cried out at that point, and
it makes sense, doesn't he And the.
Speaker 15 (24:35):
Michael Berry Show. You know this guy, he loves country music,
he loves his country, he loves guns, he loves guntry,
that's country with guns. He's a conservative, you know. He
believes in a smaller government, and he basically says, whatever
he wants. I wish I could do that. That'd be awesome.
Speaker 10 (24:54):
Man.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
This is Frank Calando. You're listening to Michael Barry.
Speaker 8 (25:00):
Lena had Algo came to Harris County Commissioner's Court seeking
enough money to take an entire entourage to Paris. Government
officials love conferences because they use your money to go
on vacation. So Lena ad Augo brings this to Commissioner's
(25:23):
court and presumes it'll just be signed away and she
can take all her staff and all her security people
and all this like she needs security. Nobody knows who
she even is. The mayor of New Orleans, LaToya the Destroyer,
has been indicted for spending money with her lover, who
(25:47):
she calls her bodyguard, and they fly first class all
around the world. And when questions were raised about how
much money she's spending on first class travel, they didn't
deny her the travel. Why do you have to fly
first class? She says, I'm a black woman. As a
black woman, I can't sit back in the back. It
ain't safe. Okay, with a lot of other black women
(26:08):
back there. I don't know how they're doing it. So
when Lena didn't get her money, she asked for a
smaller amount of money. She was very angry. A lot
of cussing going on, a lot of anger, a lot
of anger being expressed. Woo spicy hallopenna kind of stuff.
She was mad, she was hopping mad brother. So she
(26:30):
asked for half as much and they said, no, you
can't have half as much either. Well, she started asking
for I think twenty three, then she went down to
eleven five. It turns out she ended up spending forty
three thousand dollars. You know, if you had forty three
thousand dollars to go on vacation to Paris for four days,
(26:52):
I'm betting you could have one hell of a blowout.
And I'm betting she did too.
Speaker 16 (26:57):
ABC thirteen with the story documented trade mission to Paris
by Judge Lena Hidalgo and team photos and posts on
her social media show meetings with business leaders and dignitaries.
Captions read they were deepening ties between Harris County and France.
They say a photo is worth a thousand words, but
those words don't explain what led up to the photos
(27:20):
in the City of Love.
Speaker 17 (27:21):
To request.
Speaker 16 (27:23):
In early May, Judge Hidalgo asked county commissioners to approve
her using taxpayer money that was in her office's budget
for herself and essential members of her staff to travel
with members of the Greater Houston Partnership and Rice University
on a trade mission to Paris. That request was denied.
Two weeks later, she again asked fellow commissioners to approve
(27:44):
her using taxpayer money for the trip, specifically twenty three
thousand dollars, and she would bring four members of her staff.
Speaker 17 (27:51):
Own favor hi any posts, no, okay, motion fails, two okay.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
So let's see.
Speaker 17 (28:02):
Let's move to resolutions. Okay, so the resolution is you
know what, Let me make another motion here.
Speaker 16 (28:14):
Judge h Adalgo then asked to use eleven thousand dollars instead,
and said she would bring only two members of her
staff with her. Commissioners Brionas, Ramsey and Garcia voted no again.
Meeting taxpayers would not be funding it, but that didn't
end up meeting that she couldn't go. Judge Hidalgo used
donations to her political campaign to fund the trip.
Speaker 18 (28:34):
The rules are very flexible on how the officeholders can
use their funds, so long as they are publicly disclosed.
Speaker 16 (28:41):
Her campaign finance report was filed last month and detailed
the expenses for the trip. The report shows Judge Hidalgo
took five people with her from June eighth to June
fifteenth to Paris, her chief of staff, director of Special Projects,
chief of External Affairs, director of Economic Development, and the
Director of Policy. Here's the costs as listed in her
(29:04):
campaign finance report, twenty five thousand dollars on lodging, more
than seventeen thousand dollars on airfare, and more than three
hundred dollars to Uber. No meals were listed. We asked
Jonathan Nierman, a campaign finance advisor out of Dallas who
served previously as the chairman of the Dallas County Republican Party,
if this spending was an appropriate use of campaign funds.
(29:27):
He says yes.
Speaker 18 (29:28):
So there are two different things. One is whether the
Ethics Commission would allow it. The other is where the
donors be okay with it. That's really where the bigger
issue may lie for her is when donors find out
how she's using these funds, are they okay with it?
Speaker 16 (29:44):
In total, the trip cost her campaign just under forty
three thousand dollars according to her finance report. That's thousands
of dollars more than she brought in in contributions during
the same period.
Speaker 18 (29:56):
And that's why they're all publicly disclosed, because it gives
owners a chance to look and see how you're spending
the money.
Speaker 16 (30:03):
Judge Hidalgo touted the connections made during the trip in
subsequent Commissioner's Court meetings, including securing visits to Houston from
international organizations within the next year. But she's let commissioners
know that she has not forgotten about their refusal to
let her use her county funds to pay for the trip.
Speaker 10 (30:21):
It's a lot of really valuable meetings. Obviously, you know,
twenty thousand dollars is what like a little party costs
in some of these big precincts. I just want to
point out, obviously the rhetoric was disappointing about the Trade Mission.
I don't think that we need to be sort of
(30:42):
maligning work to pursue international business and opportunities.
Speaker 16 (30:46):
We asked Judge Hidalgo's county team if we could speak
to her on camera about the trip and the expenses,
but they told us that she's deep in budget season,
so we sent her county team a list of questions.
They sent us a copy of the itinerary for the trip,
but told us that since her campaign is who funded it,
that we needed to reach out to them. We did,
(31:06):
and we sent them a list of questions, but we
were told that since she doesn't have an active campaign
right now, there's no one who can answer those questions.
Judge hit Algo has also tried several times to amend
the county's travel policy as it relates to international travel,
but it's gotten voted down.
Speaker 8 (31:24):
Imagine, if you will, you are a French business considering
doing business in Houston. You're not bored, You're not like
where on the map might we do business? There would
be a reason you were going to do business in Houston.
It's most likely oil and gas related, but there's some
other reasons you might do business. And imagine that you
(31:48):
are a business capable of conducting international trade. No small matter,
and Houston is where the business is either buying or
selling the product that you want or want to sell.
And you're thinking, guys, I think this is what we
need to do. They've got a big airport, two airports. Actually,
(32:09):
they've got everything we need and they have the specs
we need to meet this contract. Let's buy from that vendor. Okay,
but shouldn't we meet with the county judge first? Or
does it happen like this? We are not doing any
international deals. We're just not. We're going to focus on
(32:29):
our home turf of friends. But we're going to take
a meeting with the county judge in Harris County, in Houston,
in Texas. And how does that work? Does she go
in and go we have some really good companies here
and they're good. Will you talk to them? This woman,
(32:52):
when she loses her job, no one will hire her
for anything. Nobody's hiring her to send her around the
world to be the face of their company. Can you
imagine it'll never happen? So the Democrat infighting has begun.
Apparently Adrian Garcia wanted Sylvia Garcia seat and he was
(33:15):
telling people she was stepping out because she's old and crippled,
and she apparently let him have it because she's a
mean woman. She's one of those women. How do I
say this, Well, she's mean. We'll leave it at that.
It's that time time, time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Very Show is on the air. Ambassador, thank you
for being here tonight.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
I mean, I just wonder, as someone who worked inside
the West Wing when Donald Trump was president, what is
it like for you to see his mugshot tonight?
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Well, I thought it was, as with most things Trump does,
carefully stage, they must have thought about what look they wanted.
He could have smiled, he could have looked benign. Instead,
he looks like a thug.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
FBI agents have rated the Marylynd home. A former Trump
National security advisor, John Bolton, happened at seven am this morning, shortly.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
After the raid began. FBI Director Cash Pattel posting on
X quote, no one is above the law. FBI agents
on a mission.
Speaker 5 (00:53):
But it is notable, guys that John Bolton, Ambassador bolton
security clearances were stripped earlier this year by President Trump.
Tulsey Gabber, the Director of National Intelligence, took that security
clearance away. They had concerns. The administration had concerns about
Ambassador Bolton still being able to access some of these
documents and have some of those security clearances. It's also
(01:14):
notable that John Bolton has a security detail as well,
because of the threats from Iran on his life. That
security detail, that government, federal paid security detail, was also
taken away by President Trump.
Speaker 6 (01:52):
Post carrier.
Speaker 7 (01:57):
Were.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
I think a lot of Republicans right now just wish Cash, Bettel,
Tulsey Gabbard, and a number of other Trump nominees that
just go away.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
There was a probe going on when Prisidon Trump was
in office last time because John Bolden wrote a book
and he violated his NDA. The President said in doing
it and he felt as though they were classified information
in that book. The probe dropped when Joe Biden became president.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
I don't think he cared about the classification system. I
don't think he appreciated the sensitivity of this information, and
he didn't appreciate the sensitivity of how it was often acquired,
the so called sources and methods. So this had been
brief to him before I arrived, it was repeated frequently.
I think it simply had no impact on him whatever.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Giving a sense of where you think the truth wise
with respect to Trump's intelligence carelessness and the degree to
which he might have brought motive to bear on taking
these documents out of the way as of keeping them
for this.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Long at mar Laga, Well, it's very hard to speculate
on motive other than that he liked cool things. He
saw things that he so he wanted to take them,
and he was pretty much able to take them, and
not just on classified information matters, on all kinds of
things that crossed his desk. Some days he liked to
(03:53):
eat a lot of French fries. Some days he took
classified documents. He wanted them. Why did he want them?
Because he could get them.
Speaker 8 (04:02):
That is the voice of John Bolton, who was very,
very eager to bring down Donald Trump. He failed, but
now his home and office have been raided. And the
story that is making the rounds in DC and in
media circles with relative credit credibility is that he was
(04:27):
selling secrets. The belief is through the qataris there's a
photo that has emerged of him in Doha very close
to a drop site and meeting site for the Katari government,
a government that has shown a willingness to pay big
money for American intelligence, And the allegation is that he
(04:50):
was getting paid big money for selling America's intelligence. Remember,
we've got the best intelligence presumably in the world, and
it's worth a lot of money to countries. Rather than having,
rather than being able to accumulate it themselves, they just
buy hours by sellout. John Bolton, a serial butt sniffer,
(05:12):
registered sex offender with a long rap sheet, has been
arrested once again for another sniffing incident in the southern
California area. He was arrested for a similar incident last month.
The story from ABC seven in Los Angeles.
Speaker 9 (05:26):
To a disturbing story of a registered sex offender who
has been arrested again. He made headlines for sniffing women
in the past. Thirty eight year old Calice Crutter was
rearrested Wednesday after reports of yet another sniffing incident at
a Walgreens in Burbank. This is video of prior incidents.
You can see him coming up behind that woman. Crowder
(05:47):
was already on parole and has a documented history of
similar arrests for lud conduct in both Glendale and Burbank
dating back to twenty twenty one.
Speaker 6 (05:56):
Looking at that pictures off that you were breaking me
for a moment. I don't think arresting a person was
clear of mental health issues is the answer. Clearly, he
needs a program that's going to keep him, that's going
to guide him in a right direction.
Speaker 9 (06:13):
And Crowder has been charged with a felony and is
now being held without bail.
Speaker 8 (06:20):
Wonder how that guy votes? He goes around sniffing people's butts,
He gets arrested for sniffing people's butts. I mean, where
do you go from there? How do you fix that guy?
Speaker 10 (06:44):
You know?
Speaker 8 (06:45):
You have to wonder he's got parents, missus Jones, Yes,
it's his officer Smith lapd Oh, this isn't about Bobby again,
is it? I'm sorry, but it is? He kill himself?
No worse? Did he get arrested again for sniffing people's butts? Man,
(07:07):
I'm sorry he did. Bond has said it fourteen dog bones.
If you could come down and bail him out, I mean,
or maybe he's just misunderstood, maybe he identifies as a dog.
Speaker 11 (07:25):
Order in the court State versus Barkiy Sniffstein, Yes, sure, Hona,
my client Barkie here is ridiculed for simply being misunderstood. Misunderstood, Counsel,
your client is a serial butt sniffer. He's accused of
literally walking up to people and sniffing their rear ends
without consent.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Also, he's accused of public.
Speaker 11 (07:45):
Urination on a fire hydrant and pooping on a sidewalk.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Your client is disgusting, not judge.
Speaker 11 (07:49):
Hear me out now, My client, Balki Sniffstein, is just
doing what is natural in his habitat.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
You see, my client identifies as a knie aka.
Speaker 11 (08:00):
A do Dear lord, what might be disgusting to you
is just a normal reaction for Barky here. When you
and I see a friend, a dear loved one, we
give them a hug. Barki here, well, he just likes
to give folks a little honey hello.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
If anything, my client's a good boy.
Speaker 11 (08:15):
I'm telling you it's time to stop being so rough
on my client.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
You see what I did there, Dear God, this might
be the lowest point of my career. Sentences.
Speaker 11 (08:24):
Barky stays out of all dog parks for two years
and let's call it a slap on the nose with
a newspaper. What the hell is that?
Speaker 1 (08:32):
That's Barkie's family. Come on, guys, let's go celebrate. You
get some grooming. I'm moving to Texas. This is.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
I know.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
What's your name?
Speaker 7 (08:44):
You say, Michael Buddy.
Speaker 8 (08:47):
Drunk days drunk DAYE Feeling is his family has a
lot of money in Beaumont. My brother lived off feeling
at and some people say failing, some people say feeling
p h E l A N. Feeling Investments owns a
(09:09):
good part of Beaumont and all the way up through
Jasper County, Orange and drunk Dad was always it. A
lot of rich families have that kid who is sort
of a good for nothing and you know, they get
dwi's and they get arrested, and they they don't do
(09:32):
well anywhere, and they cause problems for daddy, and daddy
has to put them in a job, and then they
screw that up and eventually they end up coming to
work for the family. Well, drunk Dad followed that pattern
to a t. And drunk Dad was never happier than
posting pictures of himself at the University of Texas and
the expensive seats his daddy had bought in his little
(09:55):
Texas get up with his cowboy boots and his perfectly
pressed pants and his U T shirt with his other
frat buddies. That was drunk day that he Drunk Day
could do. That, he could do that, he could he
could be at the game and drink and do his
do his horns up, and that that was you know,
until Gabriel blew his horn.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
That was drunk day.
Speaker 8 (10:15):
But he had no business. He could be a state rep.
You have one hundred and fifty state reps. You can
have some you know, some goobers here and there. There's
a there's a fair number of guys that are there
that are not the sharpest pencils in the pack. But
what happened was it was maneuvered to put him in
as speaker because he could be controlled. And then of
(10:36):
course he was drunk when he was holding the gavel,
and he madger clared under the and he made a
lot of enemies with some really anti bass stuff, anti
Maga stuff he did. And of course we told you
last week that he was very upset that we were
(10:56):
making memes. He he wrote a bill. It didn't pass,
but we heard from every news outlet in the state
because they said it was it was designed to get me,
because he didn't want to be made fun of. But
as we told you last week, he had resigned and
or retired. He will not be running for reelection and
(11:18):
he has decided to bury the hatchet. So we got
this message.
Speaker 12 (11:24):
Her, Michael, this is more Dave failing the Moore Dave failing.
I want to be the first to tell you something
side news backle Berry. I sided to hang up the
gavel after five secuted terms. You heard it here versus
our secret Backleberry, you're first one to know. Heysweet us.
(11:49):
Hope it didn't embarrasse my family too much. They bought
me to see you know, they're always told me I'm
an idiot. I'm a I'm an idiot. Wow.
Speaker 13 (12:04):
I hate those backup people.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
They're nasty, But I love you.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
Thank you for.
Speaker 12 (12:09):
Being such a supportive corner fighter for me in corner
of my boxer. Thank you, Michael. I'm not sure what
I'm gonna do now because I've I've really done much
at all. Frankly, I think I might be a little
bit on the lazy side when two things I know.
(12:31):
One it's five o'clock somewhere and the other one I
am presidently somewhere.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
So you know what that means?
Speaker 13 (12:44):
Oh, would you look at the time, I pardoner, bring
me a couple of shots of cossaws cossa zuli saquilo
while I'm still on government te.
Speaker 7 (12:58):
Time.
Speaker 12 (12:58):
Celebrate all right, Marchael Berry. Let's go play pickleball and
shue me man, doubles match. Call me back, man, I'm retiring.
Where's my cossa Zuli?
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Oh give me whatever of Besty car.
Speaker 10 (13:20):
Well.
Speaker 8 (13:22):
It can only get worse at this point. Sadly, we
love Chuck Norris, don't get me wrong, and we don't
have any problem with people getting a cameo from Chuck Norris.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Chuck Norris is cool.
Speaker 8 (13:33):
That's a personal call through the website. You pay him
and he says what you want. But when you get
a Chuck Norris cameo for your retirement, let that be
a private thing. Don't post that to social media as
if Chuck Norris called you out of the blue.
Speaker 14 (13:52):
Hey, daid Chuck Norris here, thank you for serving Texas,
my friend. Good luck in the next chapter of your
life in twenty two. All the people that walk this
journey with you are just as grateful for you as
you are for them. The future is bright for Southeast
Texas and the great state of Texas.
Speaker 8 (14:12):
Ouch. I'm afraid Dad wrote that himself. The worst part
is I'm afraid it wasn't even a family member trying
to cheer him up. I'm afraid drunk Dad wrote that
himself and then posted it to his social media site
as if Chuck Norris called him on his own Even
(14:35):
Texas Monthly that loves nothing more than an anti Trump
Republican establishment swamp creature. Even Texas Monthly there has been
so nice as if drunk Date is the ideal Republican
blasted him, saying, quote, this seems like an unnecessary self own.
(14:56):
It's like Jeb Bush not just asking people to please,
but offering, but also offering to pay them to do so.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
So here's my pleasure to you.
Speaker 7 (15:07):
I will be a commander in chief that will have
the back of the military.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
I won't trash talk.
Speaker 7 (15:13):
I won't be a divider in chief or an agitator
in chief. I won't be out there blowharden talking a big,
big game without backing it up. I think the next
president needs to be a lot quieter, but send a
signal that we're prepared to act in the national security
interests of this country to get back in the business
of creating a more peaceful world.
Speaker 8 (15:32):
Please clap, oh man. That's almost as bad as the
fact that when they went to Barbara Bush, whose husband
had been president and her son had been president, and
they said, do you support Jeb running for president? And
she said no. Jeb Bush was the Dade feeling of
(15:58):
his family. I don't know that he's a little slow,
but the question has been.
Speaker 11 (16:06):
Asked very brigade activate the Michael Barry Show.
Speaker 8 (16:15):
Show July fourth was the Pervil flood, the horrible tragedy
that befell so many young folks and families. Pat Green's
brother and his family among them, a teacher at Kingwood
(16:39):
High School among them. But the early stories that captured
the nation's imagination, and maybe just because young girls are
so innocent and precious and it it really captured the
(16:59):
heartstrings of the country. What happened in Camp miss It.
There were other locations. I was surprised how many connections
we had to so many of the kids that were there,
either through my kids being friends with them, knowing them,
(17:19):
going to school with them, having youth activities with them.
And then a lot of the dads, because a lot
of the dads are about my age or a few
years younger, and they also have other kids, and some
of those other kids were in school with or played
ball with my boys over the years, or we knew
(17:41):
through business organizations or different things. I did not know
Matthew Childress, but I knew people quite a few who
knew him, and my kids knew his daughter, Chloe Childress,
who was eighteen, who was a camp counselor at Camp Mystic.
(18:03):
And so here we are, seven weeks later, and we're
finally starting to see what I expected to see much earlier.
And I can guarantee if my child had been in
one of those camps, I would have been out there.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
You would have.
Speaker 8 (18:19):
But I'm a loudmouth, and I have no filter, and
I lead with my heart. You know, most people are
not like that. Most people are a little more reserved, and
they wait until at the right time, and they do
it in cleaner, more sophisticated language than perhaps I would use.
(18:40):
But I expected this moment to come, and I think
it's a healthy moment. You don't have to agree with
what he says, but I think it's I think it's
healthy to have these conversations. So Matthew Childress is the
father of eighteen year old Chlod Childress, who was a
counselor at Camp Mystic who perished, and he says I
(19:01):
taught Chloe to obey authority at Camp Mystic that got
her killed. He wrote an editorial that reads, quote, my
daughter was one of two counselors that needlessly passed away
at Camp Mystic during the early morning hours of July fourth,
along with twenty five young campers. The important word there
(19:22):
is needlessly. He writes. She died because she followed directions.
The instruction from camp leadership was to stay in your cabin.
She did what I taught her to do, obey orders.
While the camp managed to evacuate others all around. Bubble In,
(19:42):
bubble In was her cabin. The largest mass casualty in
summer camp history did not happen by chance. It was
the result of complacency, having no plan, little training, no systems,
and no response when second grade campers and counselors like
(20:02):
Chloe needed those things most. It happened because we have
allowed youth camps to self regulate, to operate without the
safeguards we've come to expect of every daycare, every school,
and every other child care facility in Texas. Stay in place.
That's what Chloe was told to do, and it's what
Texans cannot do now. We need new laws, and we
(20:26):
need them urgently instead of moving my daughter into her dorm.
On August fourteenth, I was at the Texas Capital alongside
more than twenty other grieving families who also lost their
daughters at Mystic. We were there pleading with state leadership
for their help so that a repeat of this tragedy
could not happen to anyone else in the future. We
(20:47):
were encouraged by their words of support and they promised
to take action. I understand that we live in Texas.
We were about small government, parental empowerment, and low taxes.
Our state believes ineping regulations to a minimum to ensure
that businesses can thrive without unnecessary regulatory hurdles.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
But as the.
Speaker 8 (21:08):
Deaths at Camp Mystics show, youth camps cannot be allowed
to self regulate and the time to act is now.
Governor Abbott made camp safety the number one agenda item
this special session, and it should be a top priority
for every responsible adult in our state. The changes we
need are not political, they are not expensive. In fact,
(21:30):
most other youth serving organizations must already meet these requirements.
They are common sense measures that everyone should be able
to agree to so that camps can thrive into the future.
While providing critical safety protection for all Texas children. Number
one prevention, No child should sleep in a floodplain daycare
(21:50):
and school sitting. Sorry, daycare and school siting laws already
prohibit such dangers. Camps must meet the same standard. Number
two Warning, A simple flood or weather alert system with
backup communication could have saved lives. Instead, the camp had
no alarm, no warning, and no way to phone the cabins.
(22:13):
Number three Planning and training. The official plan at Mystic
was to stay in place, but the girls who died
were the ones who followed that plan. Training should prepare
staff in campers to act, not to wait in danger.
There was also no coordination with first responders, no lighted
evacuation paths, no exit signs in an emergency. Confusion kills.
(22:39):
There are basic protections that all parents want and should
demand when they entrust their child to a summer camp.
Matthew Childress, father of Chloe Childrens, I have said this
before and I will say it again for any parent
(23:00):
who lost their child in those floods who wants to
share your story. It does not necessarily have to be
advocacy for summer camp change, but for any parent who
lost your child in those floods. Who wants to share
your story about your child, you are welcome to call
(23:23):
the show and we will put you on and have
that conversation. I received a call from the parent of
one of the girls who perished, a young girl, I
think she was only six years old, and they wanted
the not a call. I received an email. Everything goes
through the email Michael Berryshow dot com, and they wanted
(23:45):
the name of my friend who makes the heritage films,
and they said, we want to make a heritage film
about our daughter while it's fresh, because we want her
younger daughter to know what kind of person she was
as the younger daughter grows older. And so I forwarded
it to Chance and I didn't ask anything other than
(24:09):
take good care of these people, which I knew he
would do. And of course I later learned that he
did not charge them for that. They're not cheap. They
involved a lot of time. But I warned the father.
I said, look, I'm gonna send this to him and
he's a crier like me. And the father's response was,
he didn't charge us, he's awesome, and yeah, he's a crier.
(24:32):
I guess the dads cried out at that point, and
it makes sense, doesn't he And the.
Speaker 15 (24:35):
Michael Berry Show. You know this guy, he loves country music,
he loves his country, he loves guns, he loves guntry,
that's country with guns. He's a conservative, you know. He
believes in a smaller government, and he basically says, whatever
he wants. I wish I could do that. That'd be awesome.
Speaker 10 (24:54):
Man.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
This is Frank Calando. You're listening to Michael Barry.
Speaker 8 (25:00):
Lena had Algo came to Harris County Commissioner's Court seeking
enough money to take an entire entourage to Paris. Government
officials love conferences because they use your money to go
on vacation. So Lena ad Augo brings this to Commissioner's
(25:23):
court and presumes it'll just be signed away and she
can take all her staff and all her security people
and all this like she needs security. Nobody knows who
she even is. The mayor of New Orleans, LaToya the Destroyer,
has been indicted for spending money with her lover, who
(25:47):
she calls her bodyguard, and they fly first class all
around the world. And when questions were raised about how
much money she's spending on first class travel, they didn't
deny her the travel. Why do you have to fly
first class? She says, I'm a black woman. As a
black woman, I can't sit back in the back. It
ain't safe. Okay, with a lot of other black women
(26:08):
back there. I don't know how they're doing it. So
when Lena didn't get her money, she asked for a
smaller amount of money. She was very angry. A lot
of cussing going on, a lot of anger, a lot
of anger being expressed. Woo spicy hallopenna kind of stuff.
She was mad, she was hopping mad brother. So she
(26:30):
asked for half as much and they said, no, you
can't have half as much either. Well, she started asking
for I think twenty three, then she went down to
eleven five. It turns out she ended up spending forty
three thousand dollars. You know, if you had forty three
thousand dollars to go on vacation to Paris for four days,
(26:52):
I'm betting you could have one hell of a blowout.
And I'm betting she did too.
Speaker 16 (26:57):
ABC thirteen with the story documented trade mission to Paris
by Judge Lena Hidalgo and team photos and posts on
her social media show meetings with business leaders and dignitaries.
Captions read they were deepening ties between Harris County and France.
They say a photo is worth a thousand words, but
those words don't explain what led up to the photos
(27:20):
in the City of Love.
Speaker 17 (27:21):
To request.
Speaker 16 (27:23):
In early May, Judge Hidalgo asked county commissioners to approve
her using taxpayer money that was in her office's budget
for herself and essential members of her staff to travel
with members of the Greater Houston Partnership and Rice University
on a trade mission to Paris. That request was denied.
Two weeks later, she again asked fellow commissioners to approve
(27:44):
her using taxpayer money for the trip, specifically twenty three
thousand dollars, and she would bring four members of her staff.
Speaker 17 (27:51):
Own favor hi any posts, no, okay, motion fails, two okay.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
So let's see.
Speaker 17 (28:02):
Let's move to resolutions. Okay, so the resolution is you
know what, Let me make another motion here.
Speaker 16 (28:14):
Judge h Adalgo then asked to use eleven thousand dollars instead,
and said she would bring only two members of her
staff with her. Commissioners Brionas, Ramsey and Garcia voted no again.
Meeting taxpayers would not be funding it, but that didn't
end up meeting that she couldn't go. Judge Hidalgo used
donations to her political campaign to fund the trip.
Speaker 18 (28:34):
The rules are very flexible on how the officeholders can
use their funds, so long as they are publicly disclosed.
Speaker 16 (28:41):
Her campaign finance report was filed last month and detailed
the expenses for the trip. The report shows Judge Hidalgo
took five people with her from June eighth to June
fifteenth to Paris, her chief of staff, director of Special Projects,
chief of External Affairs, director of Economic Development, and the
Director of Policy. Here's the costs as listed in her
(29:04):
campaign finance report, twenty five thousand dollars on lodging, more
than seventeen thousand dollars on airfare, and more than three
hundred dollars to Uber. No meals were listed. We asked
Jonathan Nierman, a campaign finance advisor out of Dallas who
served previously as the chairman of the Dallas County Republican Party,
if this spending was an appropriate use of campaign funds.
(29:27):
He says yes.
Speaker 18 (29:28):
So there are two different things. One is whether the
Ethics Commission would allow it. The other is where the
donors be okay with it. That's really where the bigger
issue may lie for her is when donors find out
how she's using these funds, are they okay with it?
Speaker 16 (29:44):
In total, the trip cost her campaign just under forty
three thousand dollars according to her finance report. That's thousands
of dollars more than she brought in in contributions during
the same period.
Speaker 18 (29:56):
And that's why they're all publicly disclosed, because it gives
owners a chance to look and see how you're spending
the money.
Speaker 16 (30:03):
Judge Hidalgo touted the connections made during the trip in
subsequent Commissioner's Court meetings, including securing visits to Houston from
international organizations within the next year. But she's let commissioners
know that she has not forgotten about their refusal to
let her use her county funds to pay for the trip.
Speaker 10 (30:21):
It's a lot of really valuable meetings. Obviously, you know,
twenty thousand dollars is what like a little party costs
in some of these big precincts. I just want to
point out, obviously the rhetoric was disappointing about the Trade Mission.
I don't think that we need to be sort of
(30:42):
maligning work to pursue international business and opportunities.
Speaker 16 (30:46):
We asked Judge Hidalgo's county team if we could speak
to her on camera about the trip and the expenses,
but they told us that she's deep in budget season,
so we sent her county team a list of questions.
They sent us a copy of the itinerary for the trip,
but told us that since her campaign is who funded it,
that we needed to reach out to them. We did,
(31:06):
and we sent them a list of questions, but we
were told that since she doesn't have an active campaign
right now, there's no one who can answer those questions.
Judge hit Algo has also tried several times to amend
the county's travel policy as it relates to international travel,
but it's gotten voted down.
Speaker 8 (31:24):
Imagine, if you will, you are a French business considering
doing business in Houston. You're not bored, You're not like
where on the map might we do business? There would
be a reason you were going to do business in Houston.
It's most likely oil and gas related, but there's some
other reasons you might do business. And imagine that you
(31:48):
are a business capable of conducting international trade. No small matter,
and Houston is where the business is either buying or
selling the product that you want or want to sell.
And you're thinking, guys, I think this is what we
need to do. They've got a big airport, two airports. Actually,
(32:09):
they've got everything we need and they have the specs
we need to meet this contract. Let's buy from that vendor. Okay,
but shouldn't we meet with the county judge first? Or
does it happen like this? We are not doing any
international deals. We're just not. We're going to focus on
(32:29):
our home turf of friends. But we're going to take
a meeting with the county judge in Harris County, in Houston,
in Texas. And how does that work? Does she go
in and go we have some really good companies here
and they're good. Will you talk to them? This woman,
(32:52):
when she loses her job, no one will hire her
for anything. Nobody's hiring her to send her around the
world to be the face of their company. Can you
imagine it'll never happen? So the Democrat infighting has begun.
Apparently Adrian Garcia wanted Sylvia Garcia seat and he was
(33:15):
telling people she was stepping out because she's old and crippled,
and she apparently let him have it because she's a
mean woman. She's one of those women. How do I
say this, Well, she's mean. We'll leave it at that.
