Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Arry Show is on the air. Has below. The
(00:44):
Muslim terrorist organization, funded by Iran with money provided to
them from the Biden administration, carried out the attacks. October
seventh were coming up on a year since the attack
on Israel, and as a result, Israel determined to take
(01:06):
out their leadership. So Israel assassinated Hesbela's chief of staff
right in the middle of Beirut Lebanon because they were
tracking his phone. They knew exactly where he was and
(01:28):
they took him out for maximum effect. We will track
you down, we will kill you. That was the message.
So Hesbela realized they can no longer use cell phones,
so they switched to pagers. Fair enough. The only problem
(01:52):
the people. They bought the pagers from the Masade. So
what the Messad did was they paged all of them
at one time and it was on timer. It gave
(02:16):
you maximum time to reach down, grab the pager off
your belt, lift it up in front of you, and
it blew up. Not enough to kill you, just enough
to blow your hand off. Wow, got to give Israel credit.
(02:40):
I realized some of you hate Israel and hate the Jews,
and I get it. You don't need to tell me.
I don't know why people are so proud to tell me,
but I realized there are a few of those people.
But whatever, you wouldn't like hesbala either, I'll tell you that.
But anyway, there's a video of a hospital emergency room
(03:02):
and they're all a little terrorists standing there with her
their hands blown off. It's just noodles dangling from it,
looking very stupid. In fairness, they looked stupid before that,
but now they look stupid and in severe pain. Uh, Linda,
you're on the Michael Berry Show. Welcome to the program.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Adam, Hi, I am concerned about, you know, the information
that you can give us. Uh. We're out here in
the battlefield trying to get you know, people to vote
all the way down the ballot on Republicans, and that's
why we need information. And you know that's why people
(03:43):
are asking about Ted Cruz. We don't hear a lot, okay, so.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Ideally, what would you hear more of?
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Oh? Just you know the candidate, what you're you're saying about,
you know their opponents. That's that's good information because that's
what we have to you know, provide to the people
we're talking to as being captains of forty seven?
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Okay, but are you talking to people that are asking
you questions about congressional races.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
We're trying to talk to them about everything, you know, Republicans, right, like.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Is there a state Rep. Race that somebody's asked you about?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Well, the state Rep. Is he's in pretty good condition.
He's you know, he's already undiposed the state Rep. And
we're talking about who is Trent Ashby? Is Trent Ashby?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
And then what about your state center or is he up?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
No, no, Nichols, who's not? All?
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Right?
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Well your congressman is? Who's that?
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Okay, that's Morgan Latrell.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Okay, I don't even know if he has an opponent.
It's not gonna matter. But I don't even know if
Morgan has an opponent.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Yes, he has an opponent, but you know, I don't
It won't matter as much as but in Harris County
it might. But we're not in Harris County. We're in
Pope County. What Pope County?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
And you're also well that that district goes all the
way over into Montgomery County as well.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
M yes, as far as Morgan Latrell.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yes, sorry, that's what I'm in the congressional district. Yeah, okay, then,
the first of all, I'm very grateful for people like
you because what you do is not the glamorous work.
I can already tell you. I can already tell you're
in the trenches, You're working hard, You're making it happen.
(06:10):
I'm simply making the point, and I guess I should
leave this point alone because there's no real upside to it,
because I'm making this point to the very people who
are least likely to get it, and that is work
hard for your candidate. But don't expect Fox News to
(06:33):
cover the state Rep race in Newton County. That's not
how that works. If Trump does well, Republicans will win.
If Trump doesn't do well, Republicans will lose. Trump's up
ten percentage points in Texas. We need him to win
(06:57):
by fifteen. Why it's winner take all electoral college. Well,
because the down ballot race is that. Look, I'm not
the one that makes it that nobody cares about down
ballot races. That's not my fault. I've been a down
ballot candidate. I know what it's like. But just don't
expect that I can change that because by and large,
(07:21):
people don't care about those races. They don't care who's
in those seats until they need that person. And I
can't change that. I wish I could, I really do,
but I cannot. The issue at play here is that
(07:41):
it's not just a low information voter. Probably eighty percent
of our audience doesn't give a damn about anything other
than Trump and maybe Cruise. That's the fact I can't
change that. What the national political news, cable news networks,
(08:06):
particularly what Fox did, is it nationalized elections. Used to
elections were pitched battles, very local. But Fox came into
play and Roger Ayls did something. He applied the rules
of ESPN to politics. He created a way to make
(08:30):
politics must see TV year round. You don't need the
Super Bowl, the World Series you created, and so that's
what happens. But they can't be doing local stuff. So
as a result, our audience doesn't care about local stuff.
So what we got to get people to do is
a Republican brand, vote Trump, vote, CRUs vote all the
way down. Then you'll get ballot But.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
That actually might be one of the smartest.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Systems the Michael Ferry show.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
But Russia cannot hack a piece of paper.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
He got a heck all, we have an HPD officer
who's just been shot in the leg on the northwest
side of town being transported to Herman Memorial right now.
Prayers for him and his family. He's probably going there's
going to be a family member that's going to get
(09:24):
a phone call and imagine how awful that feels. That's
that's an awful moment for every member of a law
enforcement officer's family. I spoke to Mango Mauricio Valier last
(09:46):
week and he is back at work. You'll remember he
was shot seven times. He has fourteen entry and exit wounds.
All seven went in and came out. There was I
make him film all this stuff for me. He doesn't
(10:06):
seem to mine. There was one surgery where a shot
that went into his forearm that the shirt that he
was wearing. The bullet pulled the shirt with it like
(10:27):
for those of you who do black powder, you know,
he put the plug in there, it pulled the shirt
under his skin into his arm, and so he sent
me a photo before he went into the surgery of
it looked like just a huge ingrown hair that had
(10:47):
come out of his arm. There's the cloth coming out
of the arm. And I said, well, did they film it?
I want to see that, and he goes, I do too,
But they didn't. I wish out thought to tell him,
because I'd have been cool watching like a big old'
ZiT busted out of there, watching that shirt come out
of there.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
But he.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
For those of you who contributed to his appreciation fund
and came to the dinner that Matt Brice graciously hosted
Federal American Grill and got to meet him and his wife,
he asked me to share his appreciation and also that
(11:31):
while he is in an excruciating amount of pain, he
is more grateful he's ever been in his life to
be alive, to be able to walk, to be able
to go back and do what he loves to do,
which is serve our community as a law enforcement officer,
as a sergeant. And so that's that is wonderful, wonderful
(11:53):
news for him. Scott Adams just posted Trump is trying
to steal your democracy by running for office. Meanwhile, the
people who say that the Democrats are importing millions of
fake asylum seekers to political battleground states to create one
(12:13):
party democrat rule. Pack the Supreme Court to remove it
as a separate branch of government, remove the filibuster to
neuter the minority party. Censor and jail dissenters as misinformation.
Control the entire news industry to keep the public uninformed
(12:35):
through a mesh network of hoaxes. From fine People hoax
to the j six insurrection host hoax, bankrupt and jail
independent political voices. Maintain a voting system that cannot be
fully audited by design. Fake polsters, support any suspicious vote outcomes,
(12:59):
take away your most useful firearms, and weaponize assassins of
political opponents through media messaging. And you want to know
the worst damn thing about it, Paul, After everything they've done,
(13:19):
they've still got more hoaxes in them. That doesn't bother me.
They are who we thought they were, Dinny Green. What
really gets me is how many people we all know
who will still get sucked in. There are people I
(13:43):
know and loved who got duped by the COVID hoax.
Wouldn't see their relatives, wouldn't see their friends, wouldn't go
near anything, shut down businesses, people that got angry at
me for things I was saying on the air, hey,
(14:06):
be like the Chinese. Lock yourself in your house them,
let the authorities come and sc bolt the front of
your door so you can never get out, so that
you're in a prison. I'm not mad at you. Why
are you mad at me? Why does me not wearing
green on St. Patrick's Stay upset you so much? Where
are your green? Why do I need to play along?
(14:30):
Does it scare you to think when you got that
poison put in you and then the ten boosters with it,
that now if somebody didn't get it, then we weren't
all in this together. Don't come near me. I don't
want to be near you. You have just revealed who
you are. I'm not trying to hang out with anybody.
I'm over here telling you what I'm doing, and it
(14:51):
upsets you so much. January sixth, can't tell you how
many listeners I had, Michael, Before you go on there
and say anything, I'm gonna tell you. Don't go out
and defend those people. I'm telling you, Michael, that's a
bad idea in this case. I listen. I'm against Pelosi,
(15:13):
I'm against Clinton and Obama and all of them. But
this one, Michael, this was too much. They got you again.
They get you every damn time. And those same people
now come to me, every one of them. They come
back and they say, man, I tell you what that
(15:36):
COVID got. I got caught in it for a minute,
for a minute, because I remember summer of twenty one. Well,
I mean you got I'm scared. Of course you were.
That's how the game works. Nobody gets sucked into COVID
because they're not scared. Fear is the allure, that's what
(16:00):
gives them power over you. Well, I couldn't help it.
I was scared. You can help it. That's the whole point.
Being angry, being scared, being horny, desiring to gamble, being drunk.
Those are decisions you choose. They don't waft through the
(16:24):
air and you get a contact high. No, you put
yourself in that situation. You allow yourself to be scared.
You could have chosen, like a lot of the rest
of us, not to It's the same people, same people
(16:49):
every time there's a school shooting. Michael, I'm with you
on the guns and all that, but don't come out
and say that about school shooting because this one, this
one's bad. And he was a Republican. Every time our
side is so damned eager, so eager to show that
(17:13):
they are not what the Democrats accused him of being.
They Oh, George Floyd, Michael, I know you're going to
be for common Owens. But he's got his knee on
his back and he can't breathe. Two weeks later, he
couldn't breathe when he was sitting in the back of
the car along before all that couldn't breathe because he
(17:33):
had just downed the fentanyl. He did that a month earlier,
and that's why he was in the hospital. Well, I
don't know about all that, but but I mean, you know,
I mean, look, I think there's a lot of violence
on but I am not for you know, for bat
every time they get you, every time, every damned time.
We never get them, but they always get our people. Yeah, Michael,
(17:55):
I'm weird you. Oh but that George Floyd, Oh, with
that COVID steal yourself against these people, don't you understand?
This is what they do. Playing with your emotions is
what they do.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
They forewoke the left, woke.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
The deed the doll do the deed the doll.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
The he look at what the hell, a little.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Doll need day, he said.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Over thatcking doll. I said, lad, don't play with me.
You make this right, han and said, I'll swear to
all you have a five mins a swell.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
In the doll.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
I got to tell that gett in the doll.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
In the castle?
Speaker 2 (19:39):
What the hell going?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
Only surprised how angry I get over election returns. And
the reason is because I listened to people three hundred
and sixty five days of the year's bit of the year,
bitch about what's going on, knowing good and well. Some
of them are voting Democrat, some of them voted for Obama,
(20:04):
some of them voted for Biden. In twenty twenty, friend
of mine tells me, in twenty twenty, I can't believe
as I just found out my wife voted for Joe Biden.
What yeah, she said, she just got tired of Trump,
just got on her nurse. Okay, Now all he wants
(20:25):
to do is tell me how upset his wife is
or what's going on. Can his wife talk to me?
She loved, No, I have no interest in talking to
your wife. Your wife is the problem. See, that's just it.
We've got this idea that the people that are the
problem are over there. They look different than us, they
talk different than us, they worship differently than us, they
(20:47):
do things differently than us. No, the problem is in
our neighborhoods. The problem is the people in Kingwood, or
or Late or Cypress or Magnolia or tom Ball or
the Woodlands or Willis. Why did it go ninety ten
(21:09):
or eighty twenty? Because I tell you how it goes
in acres homes ninety nine to one? So who are
these people in Kingwood? The smattering of Democrats? That's how
you lose. Well, Oh, so and so's wife had to
get too cute, She decides she was going to vote
(21:31):
with Democrat. Felt fun, felt cute, felt like something risque
to do. She was dating the guy her daddy didn't
want her to kind of thing. That's what happens. Because
some people will even admit it to me, not realizing
how infuriated I get. This is how we lose elections.
This is how we lose elections. And when you get
(21:54):
right down to it, when you boil it down, take
all the fluff out of it. Anything that's talked about.
People that vote Democrat do so for the most petty
personal reason. It might be I need more people to
(22:16):
pay attention to me. It might be, well, if he's
criticizing the fact that they dumped twenty people into Springfield, Ohio,
and those people look like me, same skin color, that
might be an insult to me. So I'll talk, I'll
vote for Biden. Well, they're going to be dumped onto
(22:37):
your neighborhood next week. Yeah, But I personally got my
feelings hurt because I'm looking around, because I am a
person who gets offended by things like that, is a
person who is weak and insecure and probably self loathing.
(22:59):
If you're a black person who sees racism everywhere, Racism
is not your problem. White people aren't your problem. Your
problem is you. You don't like you, and anything about
you that you don't like that you feel someone else
is pointing out or even exposing that upsets you. If
(23:22):
you're fat and you know you're fat, and it bothers you,
and you're upset at other people who, for whatever reason
have upset you over some fat shaming or whatever else
that's not about them. That's not even about what they
say and whether it was funny or not. It's my
(23:42):
favorite thing. Oh, I have said to humor, I do,
but that's not funny. Funny is funny even when it's
not funny. That's the point of funny. Funny is funny
to somebody getting your feelings hurt because something wasn't funny,
that's on you. You ought to be ashamed of yourself.
(24:05):
The way I was raised, you were ashamed of yourself.
If there was a joke told and you were the
one that went in the corner and started crying, you
were the runt of the litter. You were weak because
you are weak. You are weak, and we don't need you.
You're not a problem solver. You're not somebody I want
on my team. You're a person. I can tell you
(24:27):
this kind of person. I can write you a profile.
Chad has worked for me for nineteen years. Has Chad
ever called in sick?
Speaker 2 (24:36):
Ramon?
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Serious question? If he had, I'd know when it was
because it was at one time. Ramon as lazy as
all get out. But have you ever called in sick? Literally?
How many years did you work at a clear Channel
before you and I joined together? Seven? And we've been
together what seventeen? So twenty five years? Twenty five years?
(25:02):
Ramona's worked for this company never taking a sick day
with a hemorrhoid. You know, that's a good point. What
was the hemorrhoids name? We named it? Ramone sat in
his true story, Ramone sat in his seat in the
old studios before we built out our studios, and I
(25:24):
would walk in during the break and he would get
up and there'd be a pool of blood underneath them. Eh,
gratith Michael, Gross, What do you mean that's gross? You
ought to be impressed. A goofy bastard was at work
sitting on a hemorrhoid. That's commitment, because he didn't want
anybody else to have to fill in for him. See
(25:45):
people that show up to work, and this is a
lot of you out there, people that show up to work.
Moms that get up every day. They never lay in
bed because the kids can't take care of themselves, and
the husband can't take care of himself, and the dog
can't let itself out and all the other stuff. People
that whine, that get their feelings hurt, they do all
these they're a problem in every aspect of their life.
(26:06):
Every they can't keep a relationship and they can't show
up to work. They're a problem. They're weak and you
don't need them. All right, let's go down the list.
I'll let's see who else gonna piss me off today. Jake,
you're on the Michael bag.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
Michael, Hi, Michael, I just wanted to comment how correct
you are about the down ballot stuff. And I know
how important it is, and you're right. I'm a high
information voter. I'm a high income voter. I don't miss
a chance to vote. But my problem, like so many
(26:46):
other people here in New Brothels, and I guess most
of Texas, I don't want to live here about ten
years now, so I don't really know most of the
people I know anything about them. Yeah, and it's hard
to learn, and a lot of it's my fault learning.
But something you said when we were talking to that
lady made me think it'd be so awesome if, at
this time of the year, of the final elections, if
(27:08):
instead of everybody spending all the money on individual person's
name signs, make some signs up that say, hey, do
you love Trump and want his policies?
Speaker 2 (27:20):
If so, please vote.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Write every choice you're exactly ring down the ballot.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
If they put some you know, here's the way I
look at it, somebody emailed me this earlier, and this
has been my approach for years. Republicans are going to
vote Republican in the legislature over ninety percent of the time.
The Democrats when they get to the legislature are going
to vote Democrat well over ninety percent of the time.
(27:52):
They're going to vote with how their party tells them
to vote and how their big donors tell them to vote.
So when people tell me, well, I'm voting all Republicans,
but I'm voting for so and Solfaire, we go to
church together, and then you wonder, and then they're so
disappointed when that Democrat. But I can't believe he went,
(28:13):
Oh man, he went and did that. Why he chose
to put a D after his name? You voted for
him despite that choice that he made. That's on you, you
stupid ef an idiot. Take Whitmire. Whitmyer was better than
(28:37):
Shila Jackson Lee. I supported Whitmer. He came out and
endorsed Kamala Harris. He didn't need to do that. It's
the dumbest thing he's done. But at the end of
the day, he's a Democrat and he always will be.
All these Republicans were upset. Don't be upset. He was
(28:57):
better than Shila Jackson Lee. That's all I promised you
he would be. He's been a Democrat for fifty years.
He's a white moderate Democrat for fifty years. That's Joe
Biden's profile. That's a very dangerous person, mind you. That's
a person. And let me tell you this. Sheila Jackson
(29:17):
Lee lying in state at City Hall, only the second
person to ever do it. You kidding me? Patrick Swaysey didn't,
Bum Phillips didn't. Howard Hughes didn't. You think of all
the great Houstonians. Bob Lanier didn't. And you're gonna put
Sheila Jackson Lee there. Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House,
(29:40):
said no, she ain't. No, she ain't coming to the capitol.
Huh huh, No chance. She ain't special. She's special like
Church Lady would say, she's special. Whitmer chose to do that?
Do you know why? Because he's a Democrat doesn't make
him a devil. Doesn't mean everything he does as mayor
is bad. Just never forget. Democrats are always going to
(30:01):
be democrats. Rapists are going to be rapists, Pedophiles are
going to be pedophiles. Arsonists are going to be arsonists.
They might not at that moment be burning down your house,
but at heart they are an arsenist. You keep your
eye on them. He didn't have to put Sheila Jackson
Lee in state at city Hall. What message did that send?
(30:22):
What message did that say? He didn't have to do that.
It's never been done before. But he did because he's
got a reelection in four years and he thinks, oh,
that's my way to the black vote. But you sent
all the wrong message. What about all the people she harmed?
What about all the damage she did? This is what
(30:44):
they do. It's a chessboard to them, right, It's not
about idioty. That's every Democrat, friends, that is ever Democrat.
Never forget that. That's where y'all go wrong. Stop being naive.
And by the way, my words, there will be a
Sheila Jackson Lee Boulevard in the City of Houston before
(31:08):
the next mayoral election. I will guarantee you there will.
But we're gonna wait until right before the election because
he's scared the death that Ed Pollard, a black city councilman,
is gonna run against him, and he's got a hold
onto enough of the black vote, and that will be
(31:30):
perceived as a way you get the black vote. Now
you want meet a black person, you won't ask anybody
black you work with, live with, worship with, ask them
if they want a Sheila Jackson leave DoD Are you
kidding me? When these people asked me to talk about
down ballot races, it's insulting. How big do you think
(31:54):
our audience is? Do you really want me to talk
about a speck of dust right over here? Vote Republican
up and down. That's all there is to it. Just
vote Republican all the way down. It's not hard. That's
how the Democrats got Leana Hidoggo in. They didn't argue
that Lena Hidalgo was great, nobody knew her. They didn't
argue that she would allow Rodney to steal us blind,
(32:16):
to transfer billions of dollars to do kickback. They didn't
need to do all that. They said, vote Democrat all
the way down. The polling right now has trumpet Trump
ahead by ten, Cruise ahead by five, which means five
percent of the voters are saying, I vote for Trump,
(32:37):
but uh chews look cus looks funny in Cruise cud weird.
Cruise is awkward cruising? Okay, you're going to be stuck
with a Democrat? Is cruise better than the Democrat? Stop
trying to make people be the perfect. Are you so perfect?
(32:58):
Because I bet you're not. I bet you're not nearly
as perfect as you think you are. Pick the candidate
who is one rung on the ladder above the other guy.
That's it. Pick the republic because he chose to go Republican,
so ninety percent of the time or more he's going
to be for what you want. You wonder why we lose,
(33:19):
We lose votes in the House and Senate because a
Republican turns against us, or yeah, because the point of
the matter is you've got a sorry because a Democrat
that you expected to vote right went the wrong way.
They still have to go home. That's where they live.
They don't live with you, they're visiting with you. Just
vote all the way down Republican and we can stop
(33:41):
having this conversation.
