Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Time, time, time, Luck and load.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
The Michael Berry Show is on the air. Robert, You're
(00:55):
on the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead, sir, you're up.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Thank you, Michael.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
So, there's been some rather incipitous innuendos from the financial
communities regarding the new World order the old World order
that they will say Trump is a disruptor and he
can never be president in our opinion. Thus we have
(01:21):
the attempts. Yes, so that's really really sad.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
It's sad, but I don't see a resolution to it.
Is the problem. My problem with this.
Speaker 5 (01:45):
Is that just like every Third world country, we have
a situation where it is effectively a coup. The government
is being run by unelected individuals, very few of whom
can even be identified. We're playing this game with elections,
(02:07):
pretending so that we have bred and circuses to keep
us busy while they're running everything. Who knew who Fauci
was before he was the most powerful man in America?
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Who knew who Burks was?
Speaker 5 (02:26):
These CIA directors, And this is what's always disturbing me
about the Bush families association with the CIA.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
But this didn't start today.
Speaker 5 (02:37):
J Edgar Hoover was a bastard, an absolute monster of
a human being. So of course they named the FBI
headquarters for him. And there are good people who serve
in these branches. There are good people from good families
across the country who really want to serve their country,
(03:00):
one strengthen their country. But you have bad folks. I've
seen this happen with police departments, for instance, where you
have good rank and file police officers, and you'll get
somebody that appointed to be a police chief, who who
(03:20):
serves at the pleasure of the mayor, and they will
build this little cabal of their lieutenants that work that
weasel their way. They're like worms slithering through and you
entire you end up with an entire top of the department.
(03:41):
The scandals that happened in the last mayoral in the
last uh UH Police Department administration, and the union was
out there screaming about it the whole time, and nobody
would pay attention. The scandals that happened under the past chief,
under that the top brass for the past chief, the
(04:04):
lies that were told in depositions, the documents that were
signed by executive chiefs, and they all there's a group
of them, they all protect each other. And by the way,
if you look at the dangerous liaisons between these individuals
(04:26):
and your county, a couple of county commissioners, really one
county commissioner, and you tie that to what happens with
the Houston Community College and what was happening with the
Houston Independent School District. That's why they're so upset that
the state took over HISD.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
It's not because the kids. They don't care about the kids.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
You could take those kids from being illiterate to be
in college prep ready by the time they graduate, and
they would scream and holler because it's not about academic performance. See,
these people are the most devious because they don't.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Actually care about the norms.
Speaker 5 (05:05):
We care about that children be educated, that people have opportunity.
None of that matters. Governmental entities exist for them to
rob them blind, and that's how they look at it.
They learn how to go out to the church and
rile up the people. They learn what to say. They
hire the good consultants to say that anyone who questions
(05:28):
how they're spending money as a racist because they're black.
They know this game inside out and they're very good
at it. The difference between me and most Republicans is
I've seen them practice it. They're really really good at it.
It's that kind of thing where they're cussing and hollering
(05:48):
behind the scene, they walk out on the stage and smile, Oh,
joyful warrior, and you go, WHOA, that's diabolical. That's Shila
Jackson Lee. Audio that the staffer recorded of her telling
about Jerome and has fat ass, and Jerome committed suicide
three days later. Never the mind Spring High School has
(06:09):
named a new building for her. Way to go Spring,
you must be extraordinarily proud. I hope Jerome didn't go
to high school there. That would be awkwardouldn't it. But
we've seen this, We've seen it for years. I saw
it at Houston City Council. There were people who would
walk into Houston City Hall wearing a nice suit, having
(06:32):
walked through the tunnels from two or three buildings away,
and they were the ones who would set up the
bond offerings and the big hunt, several hundred million dollar deals,
and they would pick and choose who the people would be.
He'll do the legal work, He'll held the finance piece
of it, he'll do the compliance piece. And then they
(06:55):
had their people, and the people they would choose to
be the minority contractors. Those would also be people that
were on the Center Point board and the local bank
boards and the Chamber of Commerce board, and their daughter
or their son would be a staffer for a city
councilman and a county commissioner, and you would see how
(07:16):
these these few families were running everything, and they would
place their family members and their their in laws in
these positions.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
And then you'd go to a cultural event in.
Speaker 5 (07:31):
Town, a concert or maybe the city's fireworks, and you'd.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
See that they were all there. They all had the.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
Best seats, the VIP seats, and then you would you
would notice that they all kind of ran together, they
were all friends together. And then when a city council
seat was up, they would have the handpicked candidate ready
to run for office, and there would be all that
(08:00):
same group of names that was going to get them elected.
And then you've got seats that are the designated seats
state rep state senate, congressional seat. And the only time
it gets interesting is sometimes you'll have you'll have two
dukes or two lords of the manor, and they're battling,
(08:24):
and so the two camps will battle against each other,
and each each has their their their group, you know,
like the.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Two mafia families battling it out.
Speaker 5 (08:33):
That's when you that's when the details are revealed, you know,
like the split up of Turkey leg hunting hunting, the
husband wife battle.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
That's when you find the things out about all these.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
And that's on the lowest, most minuscule, most pedestrian level,
because that's Houston City Council. We're talking about real pros
with the federal government. All right, your call's coming on.
Speaker 6 (08:53):
With Michael Berry and Ramont to find the House of
Manager's rest.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
After you meet the phone calls, we go.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
We'll start with Jerry. Jerry, you're on the Michael Berry Show.
What do you have, sir?
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Thanks Michael. I don't remember where I read it, but
I was reading an article when RFK jor endorsed Trump.
He said one of the agreements that they had made
was that Trump would open up the CIA files on
JFK's assassination and rfk's assassination. And the comment was made,
(09:33):
the CIA's held these classified for so long, and he
didn't understand why after all these years they wouldn't release it.
Everybody associated with it was dead, So why wouldn't they
release the information?
Speaker 5 (09:49):
You know, just a thought, No, of course, Jerry, it's
it's an interesting point. Rfk Jor is seventy years old.
His father was assassinated fifty six years ago, his uncle
was assassinated fifty six and sixty one years ago. Can
you imagine the number of sleepless nights he has spent.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
The not knowing.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
When you see cases of a person going missing and
you see the family, they become resigned to the fact
that the likelihood the person they loved is dead. They
would rather find a dead body than hold out hope
(10:43):
by the lack of a body that the person is
alive somewhere out there. The concept of closure, and many
people who've been through that will say, it's not closure,
it's just another step in the process and how we
cope with it, how we process it, how we get through,
(11:05):
And I don't care what it is. It's difficult. In
your life you've had to go through from the death
of a parent when you were a young child, which
could be traumatic, to betrayal by a spouse runs off
with your best friend, to being shot, burned, arrested falsely mugged, raped, going.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
To war, in a terrible auto accident.
Speaker 5 (11:39):
And there are all sorts of things that happened to
humans in the course of a lifetime. And there is
a process by which in some of us do.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
It better than others.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
We figure out how to get up and live another
day and not be destroyed by that. Each person has
their own process, but one of the things that appears
to be consistent is needing a complete set of information,
a complete set of facts, whether that's closure or.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Whatever term you want to use.
Speaker 5 (12:17):
Imagine you're that man, and your father and your uncle
were assassinated, and your government knows what happened and may
have been involved. They certainly don't take great steps to
prove they weren't. I'll tell you that, and you want
it released. Can you imagine how bitter you would be.
(12:43):
Imagine you're Donald Trump. They impeached you twice, they spied
on you, they brought charges against you, They raided your
home mar Lago, they brought charges in Atlanta. Fat Fanny
Willis and her boyfriend Nathan jack Smith, the administration's sick
(13:03):
dog in DC, Letitia James, the Attorney general in New York,
fat Alvin Bragg, the district attorney. They kicked you off
the ballot in multiple states. They shot you in the head.
Now they've shot you again. And then you've got these
really naive people to say.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
I just get along.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
I just I'll get a line. I just you know,
I just don't know. I mean, you know, I'm not happy.
You know, gas prices are high and everything, you know,
and things are not good and everything. But I just
don't know if I can vote for Trump because he
just seems mean, you know, just seems mean. I wish
(13:46):
the naive people could be knocked out of their naivete
by the evil in the world that they allow, because
at that moment, you would need to hold an election,
just call it today. They couldn't cheat enough to win
if people would actually see the reality around them. Mary Ellen,
(14:12):
you're on the Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Go ahead, sweetheart, Yes.
Speaker 7 (14:17):
Hi, Michael, good morning.
Speaker 6 (14:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (14:19):
I thought I would never say this about Donald Trump,
but I have five words to say. Keep him in
the basement.
Speaker 6 (14:29):
You know what.
Speaker 5 (14:30):
I completely understand that sentiment, Mary Ellen, I do. But
Donald Trump has a sort of atavistic animal instinct for
power and the projection of it. When most people would
(14:54):
have fled when they were shot in Butler, Pennsylvania. He
wanted to stand back up despite the Secret Service pulling
him down, and say fight, fight, fight. He wanted people
to understand I'm no coward. I'm going to fight for you.
(15:14):
And this is what is so hard for people to understand,
why the loyalty so many, including many of you, have
toward him despite his and everyone else's imperfections. There's nothing
you can say about him because no one else ever
(15:34):
has fought for them in that way. And they say,
you know what, he's my quarterback. We've won super Bowls.
So if he shows up a week like to training camp,
don't keep pointing that out because he's still in my quarterback.
People are that's my guy. I'm not changing that period.
(15:56):
End of story, John, You're only the Michael Berry. Go ahead, John, Yeah.
Speaker 6 (16:03):
Let me tell you will briefly about my experience at
the Caldwell Kilaate Festival over the weekend. At one point,
I found myself behind a group of four young Belt
Democrats who were there working their local Democrat state representative booth,
(16:27):
and so I asked these guys, ages twenty one to
twenty three, if they're ready to go to war. And
they said, what are you talking about. I said, yeah,
if Harris wins, you're going to war. We got Iran, Russia,
China all lined up against us. So are you ready
(16:52):
to go to war? And they just looked at me
with their mouths did jawls wide open, like a train
hit them. It made my day.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Well, John, there are.
Speaker 5 (17:13):
A lot of people who, through no fault of their own,
have been like babes in the in in in the crib,
protected from the real world. I remember when I first
started traveling abroad and realizing the world was not as
it is in America, well, for that matter, Detroit's not.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
As it is in America.
Speaker 5 (17:36):
When you when you see the evil that abounds, it
makes you more protective of what we have here.
Speaker 7 (17:47):
Rights, the proceedings the Court of impeachment is hereby dissolved,
mister michael Berry.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Well, it's not about desert wraps are all up.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
I've seen Nightingale, which she was back in the Philip
You're on the Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 6 (18:09):
Go ahead, sir, born it sir.
Speaker 7 (18:14):
I've got a thought on healthcare and food and I
think that they overlap one another, and I think it's
the city is personally. Take some pretty basic examples of bread.
I'm forty, you grew up here in Texas, missus Bard's
bread eater growing up, never had any issues. Quick got
back into it a little bit later on, and now
(18:35):
it makes me sick and other people sick. Common link
with a lot of this stuff is sugar. And we
know that sugar is an inflammatory, and we know that
inflammation causes cancer. All of our food is loaded with it,
not a little bit, not some of it, all of it.
Anything in a box just about these days, anything that
doesn't come from the grass, a.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Cow, a pig, a fish, anything natural.
Speaker 7 (18:58):
So you're feeding an entire population tons of sugar every day,
which then eventually causes cancer and weight issues and so forth.
On the other side of the aisle, we now have
drugs like ozempic that exists to help with weight loss,
which is not its original design, not by a long shot.
No zempic is dangerous. These people think they can take
that shot and then the weight is going to melt
(19:20):
off them and there's no harm, no foul. Let's wait
twenty years. Let's see how the muscle atrophy plays it
in the bone agraphy and all those other things. I
think these two industries really leech off one another. Maybe
not knowingly, but man, why would there be a bowl
of candy and oncologist office, see you later or see
(19:41):
you next time. When you come back, have a piece.
We'll get some repeat business out of it. So we're
not improving our food supply, we're in fact making it worse.
We're adding more jump to it. And our medical industry
has no interest in curing diseases. It's purely about profit.
It has never been about making someone better. I think
both of them rely on one another for the money
(20:02):
they make, and that's it.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
My opinion.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Were You're not alone in those opinions. I'll tell you
that for sure, are.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
A number of people who spend a lot of time
on health and wellness and human body and chemistry and
biology and the things that that make us living beings.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Who have remarked to this effect. Just look at a photo.
Look at a photo.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
You know, you see photos around for those of you
on Facebook, you'll see pictures of people that they're putting
up from their parents or grandparents, and it'll be on
the beach on Crystal Beach or in Galveston Beach, in
the sixties, and you will notice that there's one or
two big people in there.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
You look at a photo. Today, our society.
Speaker 5 (21:14):
Has become massively, morbidly obese. Now most people are not
intellectually curious or rigorous, and they don't want to have
a conversation.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Oh, I'm fat. What are you talking about?
Speaker 5 (21:31):
I'm fat, And then they become defensive. Well that's not
that's not the point. The point isn't you or you
or you. The point is how did we get to
a point in a very brief period of time where
we sew massively, dramatically transformed our society from one where
(21:58):
this was the standard body mass into to where that
went off the charts. And when you talk to doctors
who deal with these conditions diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, joint
disorders because of the heavy weight there. You know, when
(22:21):
I was younger, people didn't obsess over diet to the
extent they do now. Now, there was speed, There was
low grade speed. That's what our mothers were taking to
lose weight, There's no question about that.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
And they did.
Speaker 5 (22:39):
Want to lose weight, especially if a wedding was coming
up or some sort of an event. But now we
have an entire nation obsessed with losing weight because of
the condition we found ourselves in, and think about how
much more time it occupies. It's incredible, but it's also
(23:03):
it's also the factor of.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
A number of things.
Speaker 5 (23:06):
We ate dinner as a family at the table, and
we do that in our house, and when I have
people over, friends of mine, guys, show sponsors, or whoever else,
they are blown away. Y'all eat dinner as a family. Yes,
it's very important to us. And it's like we have
(23:28):
nineteen kids, you know, like where the Douggers or the
you know, some Mormon family or you know in a
TV show that the sister wives or something like, oh
my god, y'all are so old fashioned.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
But it means that for one meal a day we
can control we eat. It means that.
Speaker 5 (23:49):
You have awkward silences where you have to talk, means
your children have to tell what they did that day.
And my kids don't want to tell anymore in yours do,
although I would tell you that maybe light at the
end of the tunnel. Michael T came home Sunday morning
and went back early this morning to go to the
game and just spend a little time with us, and
(24:14):
it was amazing. He's more willing to talk about, you know,
what's going on in school, talk about his classes, and
talk about his professor, and talk about somebody he knew
from Houston that happens to be in a class with
him and he didn't expect that, to talk about how
big the ut campus is and walking from one side
(24:35):
to the other and everything that goes along with that.
So maybe there is hope that they do eventually come
back and want to talk to.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Show where the trains.
Speaker 6 (24:47):
And the trains come in.
Speaker 8 (24:55):
Well, talk at an elevator with either President Trump, Mike
Pants or Jeff Sessions. Who would it be.
Speaker 9 (25:12):
Does one of us have to come out alive?
Speaker 2 (25:18):
Put ups. Let's get down to Camo. Best shine, why
don't you him?
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Best shot can be, best shine, fire away, come on
to come on.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
You don't find that? Okay?
Speaker 5 (25:42):
See if I can that sol face, I'm getting that
on my feet.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Em best shine, woe to him, best shin can shine.
Speaker 8 (26:06):
I just don't even know why there aren't uprisings all
of the country.
Speaker 7 (26:09):
Maybe there will be.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
People need to start taking to the streets. This is
a dictator.
Speaker 10 (26:14):
You know.
Speaker 9 (26:15):
There needs to be unrest in the streets for as
long as there's unrest in our lives.
Speaker 5 (26:18):
Enemies of the state, show me where it says that
protests was supposed to be polite and peaceful.
Speaker 11 (26:24):
Do something about your dad's immigration practices.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
Effectless money, they go low.
Speaker 9 (26:30):
How do you resist the temptation to run up and
wring her neck?
Speaker 5 (26:33):
The biggest terror threat in this country is white men,
most of them radicalized up.
Speaker 7 (26:39):
To the right.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
I thought he should have punshed him in the face.
Speaker 9 (26:41):
I said, even if you lost, he insulted your wife,
he's on the escalator, called Mexican's rapist, immerged.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
He said, well, what do you think I should have done?
Speaker 3 (26:47):
So?
Speaker 9 (26:47):
I think you should have punshed him in the face
and then gotten out of the race.
Speaker 7 (26:49):
You would have been a hero.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
I'd like to punch him.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
In the face.
Speaker 8 (26:52):
I should if we were in high school, taken behind
the gym and beat the hell out of.
Speaker 6 (26:55):
Hunt punked some people in the face.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
When was the last time an actor assassinated the president?
Speaker 6 (27:02):
You're still going to have to go out and put
a bullet in Donald Trump.
Speaker 7 (27:04):
And that's a fact.
Speaker 6 (27:08):
Look, this is character is stab to death.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Where is young Nope's booth?
Speaker 4 (27:13):
When you need you.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the
White House.
Speaker 10 (27:23):
A Missouri state senator is under investigation by the Secret
Service after saying she hopes President Trump is assassinatees.
Speaker 7 (27:31):
I will go and take Trump out to night.
Speaker 12 (27:34):
And if you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant,
in a department, step at a gasoline station, you get
out and you create a cloud and you push back
on them and you tell them then I will come
anynoy anywhere.
Speaker 8 (27:53):
And sadly, the domestic enemies to our voting system and
are honoring our constitution right at sixteen hundred Pennsylvania Avenue.
Speaker 9 (28:02):
They're not going to stop before election day in November,
and they're not going to stop after election day. And
that should be everyone should take note of that on
both levels. That is, they're not gonna let up, and.
Speaker 10 (28:13):
They should not.
Speaker 12 (28:14):
So do you take me and say nothing yet.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
Shine to it than shot hold on?
Speaker 6 (28:24):
You know what, here's hold on.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
Here's the thing.
Speaker 9 (28:27):
The courts are going to handle that. We gonna beat
him in November.
Speaker 12 (28:34):
We'll beat him in Nomber.
Speaker 9 (28:35):
Want to handle that.
Speaker 4 (28:38):
And that's for.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
There is a balance to be struck between being tough.
Speaker 7 (28:46):
And being bitch.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Turn that off, Long History, Jr.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
You're on the Michael Berry Show. What say you, Sir.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
JR?
Speaker 1 (29:16):
I guess we don't have JR. Clip number one ramon
from KATC Television.
Speaker 5 (29:22):
If you've been to Lake Charles in the last few years,
maybe went to the Golden Nugget to a little gambling,
saw a show, you probably noticed a twenty two story
I sore the Capitol one Tower. Many of the windows
had been blown out by Hurricane Laura a few years
ago in twenty twenty, so it had sat vacant since then.
(29:45):
In twenty twenty three, the city gave the new owners
a deadline of November twenty twenty four to either repair
it or demolish it, and last week they did.
Speaker 13 (30:06):
The Capitol one Tower in Lake Charles is no more.
For forty three years, the twenty two story skyscraper has
stood as the tallest building in the city. Before its demolition,
it was the most recognizable landmark of the area.
Speaker 11 (30:20):
Yeah, it's the first thing you see when you come downtown.
Speaker 13 (30:22):
In August of twenty twenty, Hurricane Laura hit Lake Charles,
damaging the glass tower, and it has sat empty until now.
Speaker 4 (30:32):
There.
Speaker 11 (30:32):
I go, Wow, the glass was shaken at first. It's
like they blew the middle of it out and then
the rest of it. They blew the rest of it
out after that, like it filled with air on the
inside and it doesn't sounded like cannons going off.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Inside of it.
Speaker 13 (30:55):
A piece of history in the city is now gone.
Cruise immediately began cleaning up to get the area back.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Open to the public.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Where was once a tower of glass in the sky
is now empty.
Speaker 5 (31:07):
This is how you handle media members who are just
partisan hacks. Jd Vance, who has turned out to be
so good for the Trump campaign, was on with Dana
Bash on CNN.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
And he broke no quarter.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
He absolutely laid into her. Her head was bobbing like
she was getting punched.
Speaker 7 (31:30):
You were the one who bought.
Speaker 10 (31:33):
About cats, and I talked about it because you were
ignoring this community.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
My constituents talked about it.
Speaker 10 (31:40):
Responsibility to surface their concerns when the American media.
Speaker 6 (31:44):
You've been to Springfield.
Speaker 10 (31:45):
I've been to Springfield probably a hundred times in my life.
How about recent ice cream at Young's Jersey Dairy?
Speaker 9 (31:53):
Have you heard recently since you have?
Speaker 2 (31:54):
I been the last four days.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
No talking about the last four days.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
But I've sent you.
Speaker 10 (32:02):
And they're telling me this stuff is happening. Dana, would
you like to ask me questions and then let me
answer them, or would.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
You like to debate me on these topics.
Speaker 10 (32:11):
I noticed that when you had Kamala Harris and Tim Waltz,
you gave them multiple choice answers to the questions that
you asked, and you allowed them to answer the questions.
I'm happy to hear to be here to talk about policy,
but if you're going to interrupt me every single time
that I open my mouth, then why am I even
doing this? So please ask a question, and I'd ask
you to be polite enough to let me answer it.
Speaker 5 (32:35):
That's how you do it, folks. You don't have to
be polite, you don't have to be afraid, and you
don't have to be silent. When your child's teacher is
doing the wrong thing, our administrator or school board member,
you speak up.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
You don't have to scream, you don't have to rage.
You simply speak up for yourself.
Speaker 5 (33:00):
When your brother in law, who's the libtard, wants to
taunt you about Trump, you give it back and then
you leave. When an employee that is bullying you when
you own the business is doing this. Write the papers
and get them out. Don't do business with these people.
Don't empower them anymore. There are more of us than
(33:22):
there are of them.
Speaker 6 (33:23):
Do not be afraid of them.
