Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Varie Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
It is the kick off of the Democrat National Convention.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
And it's already a blank show.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Shall we say?
Speaker 3 (00:33):
The Palestinian lovers, which are the jew haters? And they'll
tell you that. They will tell you they hate the Jews.
They crashed the stage last night at the DNC welcome
party in Chicago. It didn't feel very welcoming. Grab your popcorn.
(00:55):
It's going to be good. It's going to be good.
It is going to be good. A Prohamas Goon grabbed
the microphone and screen. You are funding a genocide. The
Harris Biden administration keeps sending money to Israel. Then the
audience pipes up chanting free Palestine. They escorted this woman
(01:19):
off the stage. A clip of the moment was shared
by a group called Direct Action for Palestine with the
caption from the inside and Out, the DNC cannot party
while there is a genocide in Gaza. Welcome to Hell week.
(01:40):
There have been some threats made against the administration.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
There have been.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Claims that there will be violence, in fact, using the
term war on the Democrats this week. They also have
an RV where they are giving away free abortions. I
(02:15):
guess if it's dilation and cureitages to be dncs at
the DNC.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
It's not good. It's not good at all.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
New York Post with the headline free abortions and vosectomes
and an eighteen foot tall inflatable IUD.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Called freda womb.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
As in freeda womb erected at DNC in Chicago, Free
abortions in visectomies and an eighteen foot tall inflatable IUD,
which of course they had to name it, and they
called jd Vance weird, and they called jd Vance weird. Meanwhile,
(03:03):
a CBS News you gov poll on the three most
important issues to voters. On the economy, Trump leads fifty
six forty three. On inflation, Trump leads sixty one thirty eight.
On the US Mexico border, Trump leads seventy six twenty four. This,
(03:27):
my friends, is why the Democrats want you talking about abortion.
The problem is there are people on our side who
will get sucked into it.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Focus on where you can win.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
The Democrats are vulnerable on the economy, inflation, the border,
and crime.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Focus on what matters. That's how we win.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Something is going on because some members of the media
are occasionally, almost accidentally, it's like a spasm criticizing Kamala Harris.
Washington Post economic columnist Katherine Ramble absolutely tearing apart Kamala
(04:22):
Harris's push for price controls. I want you to listen
to this.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
This is.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Very surprising, she says. Supply and demand would no longer
determine prices or profit levels. Correct far off Washington bureaucrats
would correct.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
The FTC Federal Trade Commission.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Would be able to tell, say, a Kroger in Ohio,
the acceptable price it can charge for milk. At best,
this would lead to shortages, black markets, and hoarding, among
other distortions seen previous times. Countries tried to limit the
price growth by FIAT. As Thomas' Sole famously taught us,
(05:13):
you cannot control by government the cost of an item.
You can only control the price of an item when
you declare, in order to win an election, I will
declare that bread will cost a dollar a loaf. If
(05:37):
the farmer can't make it, transport it, the grocer accept
it and sell it for less than a dollar such
that they make a sufficient profit. They simply won't do it.
This destroys industry, and it's been tried before. It's called socialism,
(05:58):
it's called government control of the economy, and it's very
popular because people say, yes, I would like to pay
less for items. But as Ronald Reagan famously said during
a debate with Jimmy Carter in nineteen eighty, we don't
have inflation because the people are living too well. We
(06:20):
have inflation because the government is living too well. This
is an open embrace of socialism by a Democrat candidate,
the likes of which I don't ever remember seeing. Of
(06:40):
course there was Bernie Sanders. Of course there was. But
Bernie Sanders didn't win the nomination. He didn't have the nomination.
Here is some audio of a speech Kamala Harris was giving,
and she's lamenting the high prices under her administration. Someone
(07:01):
took her audio no changes and slapped a tag on
the end that said, I'm Donald Trump and I approved
this message.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
A loaf of bread cost fifty percent more today than
it did before the pandemic. Ground beef is up almost
fifty percent.
Speaker 6 (07:20):
I'm Donald Trump, and I approved this message.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Kamala Harris is traveling the country reading a list of
how bad things are, just reading a list of how
bad things are, and the small audiences.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Go, that's right, Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
How is she going to fix a problem she caused?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
We'll explore some of her.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Campaign speeches through the course of the show today. At
one point she went off script, and as you might imagine,
it's not pretty.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
There is a growing body of.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Theory, based in part on some people around her, based
in part on some people who've protected her, based in
part of the people who worked for her, that she
is a raging alcoholic, that she is drunk a lot
of the time, and look out.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I'm no expert on the matter.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
But it would sure make sense for some of the
things she says and does, and the way she rambles,
and the way she speaks, the way a drunk person
does without ever making a point, and the way she
awkwardly at the most odd times simply capitals plea.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Just keep an eye on that the Michael Berry Show.
It was just over a.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Month ago that our president was shot in the head.
Corey Comparatory was murdered with his daughter holding his hand.
Two other men seriously injured. I read a review this
weekend on the fact that so few details have emerged
(09:24):
that would be part of a basic investigation. Once Kimberly
Cheadle resigned her work having been done, well, technically her
work wasn't done because they failed the assassination. But once
she resigned, people stopped looking into questions like why didn't
(09:48):
we have a sniper on that particular warehouse. Well, she said,
because the roof's grade was too steep. We want somebody
to slide off of there, except the shooter's dead body
laid flat. It didn't slide, It wasn't steep. And then
(10:14):
citizen journalism being what it is today, they looked at
the grade of the warehouses where the Secret Service agents were,
and they were steeper than the grade of the warehouse
the shooter was on. We still don't know his background,
We still don't know his supposed motivation, we don't know
(10:36):
who trained him, We don't know anything about him. If
you actually cared to teach people to reveal to people
what we know and how it happened, you would conduct
yourself very differently. If you wanted people to believe the
conspiracies that our government did this, you would have done
(11:00):
and everything exactly the way they've done it.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Leaving you with nothing else to think.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
You feel stupid if you believe the official narrative, because
there's no way it's implausible, it cannot be true. A
comedian named Drew Dunn had a comedy bit because we
have to laugh. If we don't laugh, we'll go crazy.
He had a comedy bit about just this.
Speaker 7 (11:28):
All I do know is that if our government tried
to do an assassination attempt, that's kind of how it
would look.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Okay, it was very inefficient.
Speaker 7 (11:47):
That was the DMV of assassination of child.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
It's not good.
Speaker 7 (11:54):
Had a very small budget. You could tell they wanted
to do it with a grassy knoll at a parade.
Were used to it. We can't swing that. We gotta
do a tin roof and a town fair.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
That's all we got.
Speaker 7 (12:06):
You can't get any ex military people to take the shot.
Let's get the kid who came in last place on
his marksman team. But apparently high schools have marksmen teams.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
I've never tried it.
Speaker 7 (12:20):
That was just one big government block of cheese.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Like that's all I was.
Speaker 7 (12:25):
I was hope Trump was gonna come out the same
day here still bleeding and do the press conference.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
They tried to shoot me. They tried to shoot me.
Speaker 8 (12:34):
They were too slow, and I'm too fast. I dodged
the bullet.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
They did in a shame. I shot coming from so
far away. It was like the matrix.
Speaker 9 (12:49):
It was all in slow motion. Call me Neo, I'm
the chosen woman. They say it was a Republican. That's
say he was a Republican. This shot.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
But I'll tell you right now, he shoots like a liberal.
I'll tell you that he shoots like a liberal. Not straight,
so not strange. They said it was a fake bullet.
That's what they said.
Speaker 8 (13:22):
It was a real bullet. We found the bullets. Turns
out the bullets they were made in China. That's where
they were made. They were little, teeny tiny Chinese bullets,
so small, so tiny.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
I shot the guy back. They cut the cameras.
Speaker 9 (13:40):
They didn't show you that it was me.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
It was shot him.
Speaker 8 (13:42):
I called out my glock and I shot him right
at the pace.
Speaker 10 (13:47):
That's what.
Speaker 11 (13:53):
It's crazy. We have to laugh or we'd go crazy.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
And that's part of their design, is for us to
go crazy. President Trump has taken on as an advisor
to his team. According to the New York Times, Toolesey
Gabbard to assist with debate prep. She's already taken part
in a practice session with President Trump at mar A Lago.
(14:29):
The reasoning for that is that Toolsey Gabbard absolutely shredded
Kamala Harris in twenty nineteen.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Kamala Harris was thought.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
To be a strong candidate to win the Democrat nomination
that would eventually go almost by default to Joe Biden
because there weren't any better candidates. Pete buttergig is, well,
he's Pete buttergig Amy Klobuchar's an angry woman. Elizabeth Warren
(15:05):
is a fraud who claims to be an Indian but
runs around saying she supports black people. She's just weird.
I think she's off putting to people. Toolsey Gabbard was
the strongest candidate, but of course they don't choose the
strongest candidates. This is Tulsey Gabbard in twenty nineteen during
(15:28):
the second Democrat debate, and you will see, you will
hear what she did to Kamala Harris. And I believe
that President Trump brought her on to figure out how
to shred Kamala Harris with a knockout punch in such
(15:52):
a manner that really exposes the fact that she's a dumb,
dumb and a flip flopper, and people need to understand that.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
But this was what Toolsey Gabbert did to Kamala Harris.
Speaker 12 (16:06):
I want to bring the conversation back to the broken
criminal justice system that is disproportionately negatively impacting black and
brown people all across this country to day. Senator Harris
says she's proud of her record prosecutor and that she'll
be a prosecutor president. But I'm deeply concerned about this record.
There are too many examples to cite. But she put
(16:27):
over fifteen hundred people in jail for marijuana violations and
then laughed about it when she was asked if she
ever smoked marijuana.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
She blocked evidence.
Speaker 12 (16:36):
She blocked evidence that would have freed an innocent man
from death row until the courts forced her to do so.
She kept people in prison beyond their sentences to use
them as cheap labor for the state of California. And
she fought to keep cash fail system in place that
impacts poor people in the worst kind of way.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Thank you, Comresswoman. Senator Harris your response.
Speaker 13 (17:02):
As the elected Attorney General of California, I did the
work of significantly reforming the criminal justice system of a
state of forty million people, which became a national model
for the work that needs to be done.
Speaker 5 (17:15):
And I am proud of that work. And I am
proud of making a decision to not just give fancy
speeches or be in a legislative body and give speeches
on a floor, but actually doing the work of being
in the position to use the power that I had
to reform a system that is badly in need of reform.
That is why we created initiatives that were about re
(17:35):
entering former offenders and getting them counselor.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
It is why and.
Speaker 5 (17:38):
Because I know that criminal justice is to us so
broken that I am an advocate for what we need
to do to not only decriminalize, but legalize marijuana in
the United States.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
I want to bring a Congressman Gabbard back in your.
Speaker 12 (17:49):
Responsible The bottom line is, Senator Harris, when you were
in a position to make a difference and an impact
in these people's lives, you did not. And worse yet,
in the case of those who were on debat throw
innocent people, you actually blocked evidence from being revealed that
would have freed them until you were forced to do so.
There is no excuse for that. And the people who
(18:10):
suffered under your reign as prosecutor, oh, you owe them
an apology.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
You've got so, Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
I am constantly watching on YouTube videos of things that
are important to me, or I'll pick up a chapter
and read from something that's important. And one of them
that's usually Thomas Soul that's a big one. But one
of them is a book by Milton Friedman called Capitalism
(18:39):
and Freedom. It's very important seminal work. And so here
is my challenge to you. You can get it free online.
I've posted to Facebook how to get it free, and
there are twelve chapters excluding the conclusion, and there are
twelve weeks before election day, so you could set a
(19:02):
goal of a chapter a week. I've come to the conclusion.
There are two types of people, people who read voraciously
and people who do not read at all. And of
the people who do not read, they will have all
the reasons that some of them embrace it.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I won't read. I go by school. If I want
to read, I look at my mail whatever.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
Okay, it is shortsighted to imagine that you have been
exposed to the greatest thoughts to ever rattle through the
brains of humanity based on the guide next to you
on the assembly line, in the carpool line, or who
lives across the clothes line. It is absurd to think
(19:44):
that why you would not want to be exposed to
the greatest thoughts handed down throughout history. I don't know,
and I can't change that. But if you are a
person who does, you can go to my Facebook page
and there is a link where you can get the
(20:05):
book free and commit to just one chapter per week.
If I can get somebody to start reading, to pick
up one book and start reading. When you finish that book,
you tend to look around. It's like one laized potato
chip or one beer. You look around and go, hey,
I want another one of those, And before you know it,
(20:27):
reading becomes a habit and the only people who make
fun of it are people who don't do it, because
once you start, once you start, it becomes something that
opens up a part of your mind that you realize
television news does not do, the newspaper does not do,
(20:51):
and you start thinking on a level and it's like
it's like when you start working out and you were flabby,
all of a sudden, you start feeling stronger, start standing taller.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
You like the.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Way you feel, and there is something wonderful to that.
So that's posted to my Facebook page. You can see
it for yourself. Speaking of the Democrat Convention nineteen mentions
of Joe Biden's second term in the official DNC platform,
(21:29):
Joe Biden's no longer the nominee nineteen mentions. Well, it
doesn't matter because none of the mentions have anything to
do with what they're going to do anyway. But at
least that is the document for people desperately searching for
(21:50):
some justification why they're voting for the communist And you'll
notice this is.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Usually the white liberals who do this.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
They've decided they're voting Democrat no matter what, doesn't matter
who it is. You could replace Kamala, you could put
Bernie in there, you can put Elizabeth Warren, you can
put Kloba Jar, you could put Buddy Gate, it wouldn't matter.
These are the people who never heard of Tim Walls,
had no idea who he was, and two weeks later
(22:21):
tell us he's the greatest thing.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Ever, he was a great coach. No, he wasn't.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
They won the state championship. There was a team that
won the state championship. But he wasn't the coach. Certainly
wasn't the head coach, which he has suggested. He was
an unpaid volunteer coach for the freshman team because he
had a criminal history and could not qualify to be
(22:47):
on the payroll for the team. He could not be
an official coach. So no, he wasn't a coach. Kamala
Harris has unveiled her new economic plan, and boy, oh boy, is.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
It ever a doozy here it is.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
We've done the heavy lifting for you, condensing it to
one minute.
Speaker 5 (23:11):
Our country has come a long way since President Biden
and I took office. A loaf of bread cost fifty
percent more today than it did before the pandemic. Ground
beef is up almost fifty percent. And I know what
home ownership means. It's more than a financial transaction. It's
(23:33):
so much more than that. It's more than a house.
Home ownership and what that means. It's a symbol of
the pride that comes with hard work. It's financial security.
Speaker 14 (23:51):
It represents what you will be able to do for
your children, and sadly, right now it is out of
reach for far too many American families. There's a serious
housing shortage in many places.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
It's too difficult to build and it's driving prices up.
So now, now, now is the time to chart a
new way forward.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
We have password to President Trump's people to run this
ad on a loop from now until election day.
Speaker 5 (24:33):
A local bread cost fifty percent more today than it
did before. The pandemic. Ground beef is up almost fifty percent.
Speaker 6 (24:42):
I'm Donald Trump, and I approve this message.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
This is how you win undecided voters. Those people are
hurting your personal life. It matters who's in the White House.
Speaker 5 (24:56):
A love of bread cost fifty percent more today than
did before. The pandemic. Ground beef is up almost fifty percent.
Speaker 6 (25:05):
I'm Donald Trump, and I approve this message.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
If you want to have a better quality of life immediately,
you have got to get these communists out of office.
Speaker 5 (25:17):
A loaf of bread cost fifty percent more today than
it did before. The pandemic. Ground beef is up almost
fifty percent.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
I'm Donald Trump, and I approve this message. You're not
making more money, but you are having to spend more
money because of the communists.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Do something about it.
Speaker 5 (25:37):
A love of bread cost fifty percent more today than
it did before the pandemic. Ground beef is up almost
fifty percent.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
I'm Donald Trump and I approved this message.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
You're listening to Michael Berry's show.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
So Kamala Harris has an economic plan. Somebody wrote her up,
a little communist plan. They're going to confiscate the patents
and the businesses or anybody that don't like, increase taxes
on businesses because see, businesses are evil. So we'll take
(26:13):
all their money and give it to you, our voters.
That's been tried before. And we'll put price controls because
grocery stores and farmers are evil and they're just trying to,
as she said, price gaid.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
So she was.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
Asked how she planned to pay for this, for this
grand scheme of hers, And again you just use words
and assume they won't know what's going on.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
You know, you're actually so much and all those policies
plus street down. Can you explain how you're gonna pay
for those?
Speaker 12 (26:52):
Can you give us a sense of one of their
policies and one of them to bail?
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Sure? Well, I mean you just look at it.
Speaker 13 (26:57):
In terms of what we are trying to about, for example,
around such and the child tax credit and extending the EITC.
Speaker 5 (27:05):
That it's at six thousand dollars for the first year
of relection of the child's life. The return on that investment,
in terms of what that will do and what it
will pay for, will be tremendous.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
We've seen it.
Speaker 5 (27:15):
When we did it in the first year of our administration,
reduced toob obviously by over fifty percent.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
So that's a lot of the work.
Speaker 5 (27:22):
And then what we're doing in terms of the tax credits,
we know that there's a great return on investment. And
when we increase hoole ownership in America, what that means
in terms of increasing the tax base AFT to MENTU
property tax base, what that does to fund schools.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Again, return on investment.
Speaker 5 (27:36):
I think it's a mistake for any person who talks
about public policy to not critically evaluate how you measure the.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Return on investments.
Speaker 5 (27:46):
When you are strengthening neighborhood, strengthening communities and in particular
the economy of those communities, and investing in a broad
based economy, everybody benefits and it.
Speaker 7 (27:54):
Pays for its lf.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
None of that makes any sense return on investment. Well,
we're going to hug people death, We're going to compliment
them to death. We're going to tell a football team
that even if you don't win every game, you'll go undefeated.
Rainbows and butterflies. Rainbows and butterflies. That's not a return
(28:19):
on investment. What is the investment. Maybe she's saying that
tax cuts will grow the economy, giving you increased revenue
from more economic activity and the taxes that are thrown
off from that, because that's what the Trump tax cuts did.
(28:41):
Remember they call the tax cuts crumbs because they couldn't
say it was helping people. Six hundred dollars that's crumbs
to a working person in this country. The Treasury saw
record revenues after Trump cut taxes. How does that work
because spur economic activity. If she knows cutting taxes will
(29:06):
grow the economy, then why does she support raising taxes.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
We've got to increase the corporate tax, right. We also
have to increase taxes for the top one percent, and
that part of that is going to be about repealing
that tax build that they just passed and also looking
at a state tax. Is it going to have to
go up?
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Catherine Ramble is an economic and political contributor for CNN,
and she said something that the media doesn't normally say.
In fact, it's quite surprising that she would. She says,
we've seen people try this before, this government, setting the
(29:53):
price of things while increasing the taxes, while increasing control
of businesses, and it did not end well.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
Catherine, I hear I read your piece and I heard
you just mention it, the federal ban on price gouging
for groceries. You are skeptical of this, why, well, first of.
Speaker 15 (30:17):
All, nobody can explain what price gouging means.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
It's like that old.
Speaker 15 (30:21):
Line about pornography. I know it when I see it,
in the sense that what does it need to have
an excessive price or an excessive profit margin that seems
to be shorthand for a price or a profit margin
that bugs.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Me that seems too high.
Speaker 15 (30:38):
So, you know, it's very hard to pin down what
this would actually mean. If you look at the legislation that,
as I mentioned, is already in the Senate, led by
Senator Senate Warren and Senator Bob Casey and.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
A slew of others.
Speaker 15 (30:54):
The particular way that this is written, which is likely
to be the template for any proposal that Harris would
eventually embrace is especially bad in that it just bans
excessive prices, grossly excessive prices, grossly excessive profit margins, and
says that the Federal Trade Commission can use any metric
(31:14):
it deems appropriate to decide what that what that would
would mean, which basically says like, it's not going to
be markets. It's not going to be supplying demand that's
determining how much your grocery store charges you for milk
or for eggs. It's going to be some bureaucrat in DC,
which seems like totally unworkable.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
First of all for.
Speaker 15 (31:37):
The FDC to be deciding like how much Kroger charges
for eggs in Michigan, but it also would be.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Very bad for markets.
Speaker 15 (31:46):
We've seen this kind of thing tried in lots of
other countries before Venezuela, Argentina, the Soviet Union.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Et cetera.
Speaker 15 (31:54):
It leads to shortages, it leads to black markets, you know,
plenty of uncertainty. And beyond that, the specific way this
bill is written might actually increase prices because of some
of the other language in it, things like requiring companies
public companies to disclose in their quarterly reports, their quarterly
(32:17):
earnings reports, how they're setting prices, which is a great
way to help them collude, which normally we don't want
them to do so anyway, you know, the devil's in
the details. I guess for that bill, but it's really
hard for me to imagine any form of legislation that
preserves the spirit of what she's proposing. That would not
be you know, at best, do nothing, at worse, cause.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
A lot of harm.
Speaker 3 (32:41):
Greg Gutfield to Fox News said, price gouging is a
weak phrase directed at weaker minds. We won't get to
that quote till the next segment. Hang with us. This
is CNN Scott Jennings saying there's no price gouging, this
is inflation.
Speaker 10 (32:57):
The other thing that I picked up on today was
this whole notion, and that price gouging or gauging as
she called it, is what people are feeling.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
That is a total canard. This is not true.
Speaker 10 (33:08):
This is made up because they're trying to deflect attention
from the actual inflation that has caused everything in your
life to get more expensive. So they need the American
people to believe something other than the truth. There is
no price gouging. Grocery stores, these things they operate on
very slim profit margins.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
There is no gouging. There is just inflation.
Speaker 10 (33:29):
So to go out and say I'm going to get
the federal government involved in setting prices or capping prices,
or interrupting the flow of the free market economy, let
me tell you something. If you like redlines, product shortages,
black markets, hoarding, if you want to recreate the happy
economic conditions of the walking dead, Kamala Harris has a
plan for you. The bottom line is, the Republicans are
(33:51):
going to be all over this. It's not smart, and
it's a plan from a ticket that has no private
sector experience and no interest whatsoever in taking re responsibility
for everything they have done to plunge the working class
of the United States of America into an economic crisis.
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Varie Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
It is the kick off of the Democrat National Convention.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
And it's already a blank show.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Shall we say?
Speaker 3 (00:33):
The Palestinian lovers, which are the jew haters? And they'll
tell you that. They will tell you they hate the Jews.
They crashed the stage last night at the DNC welcome
party in Chicago. It didn't feel very welcoming. Grab your popcorn.
(00:55):
It's going to be good. It's going to be good.
It is going to be good. A Prohamas Goon grabbed
the microphone and screen. You are funding a genocide. The
Harris Biden administration keeps sending money to Israel. Then the
audience pipes up chanting free Palestine. They escorted this woman
(01:19):
off the stage. A clip of the moment was shared
by a group called Direct Action for Palestine with the
caption from the inside and Out, the DNC cannot party
while there is a genocide in Gaza. Welcome to Hell week.
(01:40):
There have been some threats made against the administration.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
There have been.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Claims that there will be violence, in fact, using the
term war on the Democrats this week. They also have
an RV where they are giving away free abortions. I
(02:15):
guess if it's dilation and cureitages to be dncs at
the DNC.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
It's not good. It's not good at all.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
New York Post with the headline free abortions and vosectomes
and an eighteen foot tall inflatable IUD.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Called freda womb.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
As in freeda womb erected at DNC in Chicago, Free
abortions in visectomies and an eighteen foot tall inflatable IUD,
which of course they had to name it, and they
called jd Vance weird, and they called jd Vance weird. Meanwhile,
(03:03):
a CBS News you gov poll on the three most
important issues to voters. On the economy, Trump leads fifty
six forty three. On inflation, Trump leads sixty one thirty eight.
On the US Mexico border, Trump leads seventy six twenty four. This,
(03:27):
my friends, is why the Democrats want you talking about abortion.
The problem is there are people on our side who
will get sucked into it.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Focus on where you can win.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
The Democrats are vulnerable on the economy, inflation, the border,
and crime.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Focus on what matters. That's how we win.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Something is going on because some members of the media
are occasionally, almost accidentally, it's like a spasm criticizing Kamala Harris.
Washington Post economic columnist Katherine Ramble absolutely tearing apart Kamala
(04:22):
Harris's push for price controls. I want you to listen
to this.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
This is.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Very surprising, she says. Supply and demand would no longer
determine prices or profit levels. Correct far off Washington bureaucrats
would correct.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
The FTC Federal Trade Commission.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Would be able to tell, say, a Kroger in Ohio,
the acceptable price it can charge for milk. At best,
this would lead to shortages, black markets, and hoarding, among
other distortions seen previous times. Countries tried to limit the
price growth by FIAT. As Thomas' Sole famously taught us,
(05:13):
you cannot control by government the cost of an item.
You can only control the price of an item when
you declare, in order to win an election, I will
declare that bread will cost a dollar a loaf. If
(05:37):
the farmer can't make it, transport it, the grocer accept
it and sell it for less than a dollar such
that they make a sufficient profit. They simply won't do it.
This destroys industry, and it's been tried before. It's called socialism,
(05:58):
it's called government control of the economy, and it's very
popular because people say, yes, I would like to pay
less for items. But as Ronald Reagan famously said during
a debate with Jimmy Carter in nineteen eighty, we don't
have inflation because the people are living too well. We
(06:20):
have inflation because the government is living too well. This
is an open embrace of socialism by a Democrat candidate,
the likes of which I don't ever remember seeing. Of
(06:40):
course there was Bernie Sanders. Of course there was. But
Bernie Sanders didn't win the nomination. He didn't have the nomination.
Here is some audio of a speech Kamala Harris was giving,
and she's lamenting the high prices under her administration. Someone
(07:01):
took her audio no changes and slapped a tag on
the end that said, I'm Donald Trump and I approved
this message.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
A loaf of bread cost fifty percent more today than
it did before the pandemic. Ground beef is up almost
fifty percent.
Speaker 6 (07:20):
I'm Donald Trump, and I approved this message.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Kamala Harris is traveling the country reading a list of
how bad things are, just reading a list of how
bad things are, and the small audiences.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Go, that's right, Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
How is she going to fix a problem she caused?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
We'll explore some of her.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Campaign speeches through the course of the show today. At
one point she went off script, and as you might imagine,
it's not pretty.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
There is a growing body of.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Theory, based in part on some people around her, based
in part on some people who've protected her, based in
part of the people who worked for her, that she
is a raging alcoholic, that she is drunk a lot
of the time, and look out.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I'm no expert on the matter.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
But it would sure make sense for some of the
things she says and does, and the way she rambles,
and the way she speaks, the way a drunk person
does without ever making a point, and the way she
awkwardly at the most odd times simply capitals plea.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Just keep an eye on that the Michael Berry Show.
It was just over a.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Month ago that our president was shot in the head.
Corey Comparatory was murdered with his daughter holding his hand.
Two other men seriously injured. I read a review this
weekend on the fact that so few details have emerged
(09:24):
that would be part of a basic investigation. Once Kimberly
Cheadle resigned her work having been done, well, technically her
work wasn't done because they failed the assassination. But once
she resigned, people stopped looking into questions like why didn't
(09:48):
we have a sniper on that particular warehouse. Well, she said,
because the roof's grade was too steep. We want somebody
to slide off of there, except the shooter's dead body
laid flat. It didn't slide, It wasn't steep. And then
(10:14):
citizen journalism being what it is today, they looked at
the grade of the warehouses where the Secret Service agents were,
and they were steeper than the grade of the warehouse
the shooter was on. We still don't know his background,
We still don't know his supposed motivation, we don't know
(10:36):
who trained him, We don't know anything about him. If
you actually cared to teach people to reveal to people
what we know and how it happened, you would conduct
yourself very differently. If you wanted people to believe the
conspiracies that our government did this, you would have done
(11:00):
and everything exactly the way they've done it.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Leaving you with nothing else to think.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
You feel stupid if you believe the official narrative, because
there's no way it's implausible, it cannot be true. A
comedian named Drew Dunn had a comedy bit because we
have to laugh. If we don't laugh, we'll go crazy.
He had a comedy bit about just this.
Speaker 7 (11:28):
All I do know is that if our government tried
to do an assassination attempt, that's kind of how it
would look.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Okay, it was very inefficient.
Speaker 7 (11:47):
That was the DMV of assassination of child.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
It's not good.
Speaker 7 (11:54):
Had a very small budget. You could tell they wanted
to do it with a grassy knoll at a parade.
Were used to it. We can't swing that. We gotta
do a tin roof and a town fair.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
That's all we got.
Speaker 7 (12:06):
You can't get any ex military people to take the shot.
Let's get the kid who came in last place on
his marksman team. But apparently high schools have marksmen teams.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
I've never tried it.
Speaker 7 (12:20):
That was just one big government block of cheese.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Like that's all I was.
Speaker 7 (12:25):
I was hope Trump was gonna come out the same
day here still bleeding and do the press conference.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
They tried to shoot me. They tried to shoot me.
Speaker 8 (12:34):
They were too slow, and I'm too fast. I dodged
the bullet.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
They did in a shame. I shot coming from so
far away. It was like the matrix.
Speaker 9 (12:49):
It was all in slow motion. Call me Neo, I'm
the chosen woman. They say it was a Republican. That's
say he was a Republican. This shot.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
But I'll tell you right now, he shoots like a liberal.
I'll tell you that he shoots like a liberal. Not straight,
so not strange. They said it was a fake bullet.
That's what they said.
Speaker 8 (13:22):
It was a real bullet. We found the bullets. Turns
out the bullets they were made in China. That's where
they were made. They were little, teeny tiny Chinese bullets,
so small, so tiny.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
I shot the guy back. They cut the cameras.
Speaker 9 (13:40):
They didn't show you that it was me.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
It was shot him.
Speaker 8 (13:42):
I called out my glock and I shot him right
at the pace.
Speaker 10 (13:47):
That's what.
Speaker 11 (13:53):
It's crazy. We have to laugh or we'd go crazy.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
And that's part of their design, is for us to
go crazy. President Trump has taken on as an advisor
to his team. According to the New York Times, Toolesey
Gabbard to assist with debate prep. She's already taken part
in a practice session with President Trump at mar A Lago.
(14:29):
The reasoning for that is that Toolsey Gabbard absolutely shredded
Kamala Harris in twenty nineteen.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Kamala Harris was thought.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
To be a strong candidate to win the Democrat nomination
that would eventually go almost by default to Joe Biden
because there weren't any better candidates. Pete buttergig is, well,
he's Pete buttergig Amy Klobuchar's an angry woman. Elizabeth Warren
(15:05):
is a fraud who claims to be an Indian but
runs around saying she supports black people. She's just weird.
I think she's off putting to people. Toolsey Gabbard was
the strongest candidate, but of course they don't choose the
strongest candidates. This is Tulsey Gabbard in twenty nineteen during
(15:28):
the second Democrat debate, and you will see, you will
hear what she did to Kamala Harris. And I believe
that President Trump brought her on to figure out how
to shred Kamala Harris with a knockout punch in such
(15:52):
a manner that really exposes the fact that she's a dumb,
dumb and a flip flopper, and people need to understand that.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
But this was what Toolsey Gabbert did to Kamala Harris.
Speaker 12 (16:06):
I want to bring the conversation back to the broken
criminal justice system that is disproportionately negatively impacting black and
brown people all across this country to day. Senator Harris
says she's proud of her record prosecutor and that she'll
be a prosecutor president. But I'm deeply concerned about this record.
There are too many examples to cite. But she put
(16:27):
over fifteen hundred people in jail for marijuana violations and
then laughed about it when she was asked if she
ever smoked marijuana.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
She blocked evidence.
Speaker 12 (16:36):
She blocked evidence that would have freed an innocent man
from death row until the courts forced her to do so.
She kept people in prison beyond their sentences to use
them as cheap labor for the state of California. And
she fought to keep cash fail system in place that
impacts poor people in the worst kind of way.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Thank you, Comresswoman. Senator Harris your response.
Speaker 13 (17:02):
As the elected Attorney General of California, I did the
work of significantly reforming the criminal justice system of a
state of forty million people, which became a national model
for the work that needs to be done.
Speaker 5 (17:15):
And I am proud of that work. And I am
proud of making a decision to not just give fancy
speeches or be in a legislative body and give speeches
on a floor, but actually doing the work of being
in the position to use the power that I had
to reform a system that is badly in need of reform.
That is why we created initiatives that were about re
(17:35):
entering former offenders and getting them counselor.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
It is why and.
Speaker 5 (17:38):
Because I know that criminal justice is to us so
broken that I am an advocate for what we need
to do to not only decriminalize, but legalize marijuana in
the United States.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
I want to bring a Congressman Gabbard back in your.
Speaker 12 (17:49):
Responsible The bottom line is, Senator Harris, when you were
in a position to make a difference and an impact
in these people's lives, you did not. And worse yet,
in the case of those who were on debat throw
innocent people, you actually blocked evidence from being revealed that
would have freed them until you were forced to do so.
There is no excuse for that. And the people who
(18:10):
suffered under your reign as prosecutor, oh, you owe them
an apology.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
You've got so, Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
I am constantly watching on YouTube videos of things that
are important to me, or I'll pick up a chapter
and read from something that's important. And one of them
that's usually Thomas Soul that's a big one. But one
of them is a book by Milton Friedman called Capitalism
(18:39):
and Freedom. It's very important seminal work. And so here
is my challenge to you. You can get it free online.
I've posted to Facebook how to get it free, and
there are twelve chapters excluding the conclusion, and there are
twelve weeks before election day, so you could set a
(19:02):
goal of a chapter a week. I've come to the conclusion.
There are two types of people, people who read voraciously
and people who do not read at all. And of
the people who do not read, they will have all
the reasons that some of them embrace it.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I won't read. I go by school. If I want
to read, I look at my mail whatever.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
Okay, it is shortsighted to imagine that you have been
exposed to the greatest thoughts to ever rattle through the
brains of humanity based on the guide next to you
on the assembly line, in the carpool line, or who
lives across the clothes line. It is absurd to think
(19:44):
that why you would not want to be exposed to
the greatest thoughts handed down throughout history. I don't know,
and I can't change that. But if you are a
person who does, you can go to my Facebook page
and there is a link where you can get the
(20:05):
book free and commit to just one chapter per week.
If I can get somebody to start reading, to pick
up one book and start reading. When you finish that book,
you tend to look around. It's like one laized potato
chip or one beer. You look around and go, hey,
I want another one of those, And before you know it,
(20:27):
reading becomes a habit and the only people who make
fun of it are people who don't do it, because
once you start, once you start, it becomes something that
opens up a part of your mind that you realize
television news does not do, the newspaper does not do,
(20:51):
and you start thinking on a level and it's like
it's like when you start working out and you were flabby,
all of a sudden, you start feeling stronger, start standing taller.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
You like the.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Way you feel, and there is something wonderful to that.
So that's posted to my Facebook page. You can see
it for yourself. Speaking of the Democrat Convention nineteen mentions
of Joe Biden's second term in the official DNC platform,
(21:29):
Joe Biden's no longer the nominee nineteen mentions. Well, it
doesn't matter because none of the mentions have anything to
do with what they're going to do anyway. But at
least that is the document for people desperately searching for
(21:50):
some justification why they're voting for the communist And you'll
notice this is.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Usually the white liberals who do this.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
They've decided they're voting Democrat no matter what, doesn't matter
who it is. You could replace Kamala, you could put
Bernie in there, you can put Elizabeth Warren, you can
put Kloba Jar, you could put Buddy Gate, it wouldn't matter.
These are the people who never heard of Tim Walls,
had no idea who he was, and two weeks later
(22:21):
tell us he's the greatest thing.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Ever, he was a great coach. No, he wasn't.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
They won the state championship. There was a team that
won the state championship. But he wasn't the coach. Certainly
wasn't the head coach, which he has suggested. He was
an unpaid volunteer coach for the freshman team because he
had a criminal history and could not qualify to be
(22:47):
on the payroll for the team. He could not be
an official coach. So no, he wasn't a coach. Kamala
Harris has unveiled her new economic plan, and boy, oh boy, is.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
It ever a doozy here it is.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
We've done the heavy lifting for you, condensing it to
one minute.
Speaker 5 (23:11):
Our country has come a long way since President Biden
and I took office. A loaf of bread cost fifty
percent more today than it did before the pandemic. Ground
beef is up almost fifty percent. And I know what
home ownership means. It's more than a financial transaction. It's
(23:33):
so much more than that. It's more than a house.
Home ownership and what that means. It's a symbol of
the pride that comes with hard work. It's financial security.
Speaker 14 (23:51):
It represents what you will be able to do for
your children, and sadly, right now it is out of
reach for far too many American families. There's a serious
housing shortage in many places.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
It's too difficult to build and it's driving prices up.
So now, now, now is the time to chart a
new way forward.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
We have password to President Trump's people to run this
ad on a loop from now until election day.
Speaker 5 (24:33):
A local bread cost fifty percent more today than it
did before. The pandemic. Ground beef is up almost fifty percent.
Speaker 6 (24:42):
I'm Donald Trump, and I approve this message.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
This is how you win undecided voters. Those people are
hurting your personal life. It matters who's in the White House.
Speaker 5 (24:56):
A love of bread cost fifty percent more today than
did before. The pandemic. Ground beef is up almost fifty percent.
Speaker 6 (25:05):
I'm Donald Trump, and I approve this message.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
If you want to have a better quality of life immediately,
you have got to get these communists out of office.
Speaker 5 (25:17):
A loaf of bread cost fifty percent more today than
it did before. The pandemic. Ground beef is up almost
fifty percent.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
I'm Donald Trump, and I approve this message. You're not
making more money, but you are having to spend more
money because of the communists.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Do something about it.
Speaker 5 (25:37):
A love of bread cost fifty percent more today than
it did before the pandemic. Ground beef is up almost
fifty percent.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
I'm Donald Trump and I approved this message.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
You're listening to Michael Berry's show.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
So Kamala Harris has an economic plan. Somebody wrote her up,
a little communist plan. They're going to confiscate the patents
and the businesses or anybody that don't like, increase taxes
on businesses because see, businesses are evil. So we'll take
(26:13):
all their money and give it to you, our voters.
That's been tried before. And we'll put price controls because
grocery stores and farmers are evil and they're just trying to,
as she said, price gaid.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
So she was.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
Asked how she planned to pay for this, for this
grand scheme of hers, And again you just use words
and assume they won't know what's going on.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
You know, you're actually so much and all those policies
plus street down. Can you explain how you're gonna pay
for those?
Speaker 12 (26:52):
Can you give us a sense of one of their
policies and one of them to bail?
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Sure? Well, I mean you just look at it.
Speaker 13 (26:57):
In terms of what we are trying to about, for example,
around such and the child tax credit and extending the EITC.
Speaker 5 (27:05):
That it's at six thousand dollars for the first year
of relection of the child's life. The return on that investment,
in terms of what that will do and what it
will pay for, will be tremendous.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
We've seen it.
Speaker 5 (27:15):
When we did it in the first year of our administration,
reduced toob obviously by over fifty percent.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
So that's a lot of the work.
Speaker 5 (27:22):
And then what we're doing in terms of the tax credits,
we know that there's a great return on investment. And
when we increase hoole ownership in America, what that means
in terms of increasing the tax base AFT to MENTU
property tax base, what that does to fund schools.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Again, return on investment.
Speaker 5 (27:36):
I think it's a mistake for any person who talks
about public policy to not critically evaluate how you measure the.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Return on investments.
Speaker 5 (27:46):
When you are strengthening neighborhood, strengthening communities and in particular
the economy of those communities, and investing in a broad
based economy, everybody benefits and it.
Speaker 7 (27:54):
Pays for its lf.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
None of that makes any sense return on investment. Well,
we're going to hug people death, We're going to compliment
them to death. We're going to tell a football team
that even if you don't win every game, you'll go undefeated.
Rainbows and butterflies. Rainbows and butterflies. That's not a return
(28:19):
on investment. What is the investment. Maybe she's saying that
tax cuts will grow the economy, giving you increased revenue
from more economic activity and the taxes that are thrown
off from that, because that's what the Trump tax cuts did.
(28:41):
Remember they call the tax cuts crumbs because they couldn't
say it was helping people. Six hundred dollars that's crumbs
to a working person in this country. The Treasury saw
record revenues after Trump cut taxes. How does that work
because spur economic activity. If she knows cutting taxes will
(29:06):
grow the economy, then why does she support raising taxes.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
We've got to increase the corporate tax, right. We also
have to increase taxes for the top one percent, and
that part of that is going to be about repealing
that tax build that they just passed and also looking
at a state tax. Is it going to have to
go up?
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Catherine Ramble is an economic and political contributor for CNN,
and she said something that the media doesn't normally say.
In fact, it's quite surprising that she would. She says,
we've seen people try this before, this government, setting the
(29:53):
price of things while increasing the taxes, while increasing control
of businesses, and it did not end well.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
Catherine, I hear I read your piece and I heard
you just mention it, the federal ban on price gouging
for groceries. You are skeptical of this, why, well, first of.
Speaker 15 (30:17):
All, nobody can explain what price gouging means.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
It's like that old.
Speaker 15 (30:21):
Line about pornography. I know it when I see it,
in the sense that what does it need to have
an excessive price or an excessive profit margin that seems
to be shorthand for a price or a profit margin
that bugs.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Me that seems too high.
Speaker 15 (30:38):
So, you know, it's very hard to pin down what
this would actually mean. If you look at the legislation that,
as I mentioned, is already in the Senate, led by
Senator Senate Warren and Senator Bob Casey and.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
A slew of others.
Speaker 15 (30:54):
The particular way that this is written, which is likely
to be the template for any proposal that Harris would
eventually embrace is especially bad in that it just bans
excessive prices, grossly excessive prices, grossly excessive profit margins, and
says that the Federal Trade Commission can use any metric
(31:14):
it deems appropriate to decide what that what that would
would mean, which basically says like, it's not going to
be markets. It's not going to be supplying demand that's
determining how much your grocery store charges you for milk
or for eggs. It's going to be some bureaucrat in DC,
which seems like totally unworkable.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
First of all for.
Speaker 15 (31:37):
The FDC to be deciding like how much Kroger charges
for eggs in Michigan, but it also would be.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Very bad for markets.
Speaker 15 (31:46):
We've seen this kind of thing tried in lots of
other countries before Venezuela, Argentina, the Soviet Union.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Et cetera.
Speaker 15 (31:54):
It leads to shortages, it leads to black markets, you know,
plenty of uncertainty. And beyond that, the specific way this
bill is written might actually increase prices because of some
of the other language in it, things like requiring companies
public companies to disclose in their quarterly reports, their quarterly
(32:17):
earnings reports, how they're setting prices, which is a great
way to help them collude, which normally we don't want
them to do so anyway, you know, the devil's in
the details. I guess for that bill, but it's really
hard for me to imagine any form of legislation that
preserves the spirit of what she's proposing. That would not
be you know, at best, do nothing, at worse, cause.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
A lot of harm.
Speaker 3 (32:41):
Greg Gutfield to Fox News said, price gouging is a
weak phrase directed at weaker minds. We won't get to
that quote till the next segment. Hang with us. This
is CNN Scott Jennings saying there's no price gouging, this
is inflation.
Speaker 10 (32:57):
The other thing that I picked up on today was
this whole notion, and that price gouging or gauging as
she called it, is what people are feeling.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
That is a total canard. This is not true.
Speaker 10 (33:08):
This is made up because they're trying to deflect attention
from the actual inflation that has caused everything in your
life to get more expensive. So they need the American
people to believe something other than the truth. There is
no price gouging. Grocery stores, these things they operate on
very slim profit margins.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
There is no gouging. There is just inflation.
Speaker 10 (33:29):
So to go out and say I'm going to get
the federal government involved in setting prices or capping prices,
or interrupting the flow of the free market economy, let
me tell you something. If you like redlines, product shortages,
black markets, hoarding, if you want to recreate the happy
economic conditions of the walking dead, Kamala Harris has a
plan for you. The bottom line is, the Republicans are
(33:51):
going to be all over this. It's not smart, and
it's a plan from a ticket that has no private
sector experience and no interest whatsoever in taking re responsibility
for everything they have done to plunge the working class
of the United States of America into an economic crisis.
