Speaker 1 (00:04):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Verie Show is on the air. The question is
friul Helm we are you lying then? Are you lying now?
Or are you not? In fact a chronic and habitual liar.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
When you hear the term fake news, you probably think
about how it's used often today by President Trump. But
it's actually an old term used by the Soviet Union
as a reference to disinformation campaigns that the Soviets and
now the Russians have long used to destabilize the West.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
US officials have warned that Russian interference remains an active
threat for the twenty twenty presidential elections.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Can't see.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
What she and is scumb MSD scum the New York
Times is scumb.
Speaker 5 (01:00):
Already had open contact with a person that the US
has called an agent for the Kremlin. Now we are
being told by two people who've been briefed on what
the FBI is doing that they're looking into whether these
unverified emails about Hunter Biden that were published earlier this
week by The New York Post about his business dealings
(01:21):
in Ukraine and China are part of this bigger Russian
disinformation effort in the twenty twenty election.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
CNN is scum, MSDNGS, scum. The New York Times is scum.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
President Trump will be at Mount Rushmore, where he'll be
standing in front of a monument of two slave owners
and on land wrestled away from a Native Americans.
Speaker 6 (01:42):
We do have now some of the sound. As I
told you, we're not in the audience. We're not carrying
his remarks live because, frankly, he says a lot of
things that are not true and sometimes potentially dangerous.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Shenn is scum, MSDNGS, scum. The New York Times is scum.
Speaker 7 (01:59):
Starting your tape right now, because I'm about to tell
you the truth and f you if you can't handle
the truth. This version of Biden, intellectually, analytically.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Is the best Biden ever.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Looking at the images and looking at what was actually
damaged that defends. Intelligence Agency has assessed that the core
components of Aron's nuclear program are largely intact, and that
Aron's nuclear program has essentially only been set back by month.
Speaker 8 (02:32):
Google unveiled something called the Google Glass. It would be
talked about incessantly in the news for the next two years.
It was two years before commoners could get it but
we would see video of famous people, movie stars, rock star,
(03:00):
media celebrities, and they would be you'd have b roll
of them at a party in Silicon Valley and they
would be wearing the Google glass and you couldn't hear
what was being said, but you could see from a
distance unity the camera was showing and they were at
a party, and they were walking around and looking and
(03:21):
this was crazy the other person.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
And they were all having so much fun.
Speaker 8 (03:24):
Gods were having so much fun, and you weren't because
you're poor and you live in Middle America. But they
were having so much fun.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
And they were.
Speaker 8 (03:32):
Laughing and go falling and thinking how great Barack Obama
was and laughing, and they were wearing their Google glasses,
and the other people were and you were not invited
to the party. This was the party. This was the
party to be at. This was where it was happening.
These people have fun. You don't have fun. You get up,
(03:54):
you lead a miserable life. You come home to your
snotty little kids, eat your crappy little food that you prepare.
There's no chef involved, no salt bay sprinkling salt, there's
no parsley or parse nips.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
For that matter.
Speaker 8 (04:09):
They're no fancy food, you know, Belgian undives or other
French references. There's no vintage to your wine, and none
of these, none of these things. Your life is meaningless.
Their life is so great. They're having so much fun,
so much fun. And off screen from everything you see,
there were all these little gay dues just running around there,
(04:31):
dig dig, and they're all with you know, they're all
dressed in they're their own little class of people, and
they're dressed there a certain way, and they're filming everything
and they're putting it on Instagram, and and.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
That's what was going on.
Speaker 8 (04:46):
And then in twenty fourteen, after they've done this for
two years, and you're sitting at home with your loser, lazy, sloppy, awful, poor,
broken down, uncool, I'll garden life. I guess we'll sell
you the Google glass. We've already had enough fun with it. Well,
(05:09):
I guess we'll let you have it here. Run out
and buy it peasants.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
And nobody did. And that was the moment.
Speaker 8 (05:18):
If you're paying attention, you realize this thing has been
sold through what's called earned media for two years. It
was a very sophisticated marketing campaign, and you the peasant,
you were going to get just a moment of living
like they live much later, but you were going to
(05:41):
get to you were going to get to experience their life.
And this is okay, let's kind of stupid to me
if you find yourself thinking, you know, everything Trump says
makes sense, and Schumer and Hakem Jeffries and ilhan Omar
(06:01):
and Aos and Nancy Pelot, nothing that these people say
makes any sense. They are saying, we're shutting down the
government because illegal aliens deserve health care when they're not
even here illegally. And you're thinking, how can this be?
Speaker 1 (06:17):
How can I buy her?
Speaker 8 (06:18):
You're losing your mind. Don't lose your mind. Don't lose
your mind. Everybody in the country is not buying the
Google Glass. Everybody in the country knows Google Glass is
a scam. It's stupid, it's silly, it's absurd, it's ridiculous,
it's it's it's it's some combination of of of Rue
Paul's drag Race and lifestyles of the rich and Famous
(06:40):
and reality TV and Desperate Housewives of whatever. Nobody lives
like this, Nobody has those opinions. Everybody knows boys don't
need to be in the girl's bathroom. Everybody knows we
don't need to be paying health care for illegals. Everybody
knows the illegals have to go. Everybody knows it. Everybody
you know knows it. And if you go, no, no,
(07:02):
that's not true. You know one person, your sister's married
to one douche and he doesn't agree. But the fact
is everybody knows that one odd weird person that comes
to your family gathering or works in your office or whatever,
they are the odd man out.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
They are.
Speaker 8 (07:22):
They're just loud. Everybody in America knows what's going on.
Everybody and everybody supports it. That's not one hundred percent
of the people, but it's close enough. We are Winny.
I want you to understand that. In case you're not sure,
trust me on this. We are Winny.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
The girls all get pretty at closing time when you're
listening to the Michael Berry.
Speaker 8 (07:40):
Show, the government is shut down and you don't see
him be as upset as you're supposed to be. You're
supposed to be really really upset. For some reason, you're not,
and I can't figure out why. Because we really need
you to be upset. We really need you to be engaged.
Everybody Fox, seeing n MSNBC. The government shut down looms,
(08:06):
what will happen? Join us coming up next? No, I'm
all right, I'm all right. I think I think y'all
got this. Yeah, I think we'll be all right with
a government shutdown. I don't live off the government. A
lot of other people do, but I don't. And those
(08:27):
people can, They can scramble. Let let them go beg
let them go plant some food for themselves, let them
go find the means. They're the same people who told
me during the the man made COVID shutdown that this
(08:52):
was a a disease of the vaccinated, a pandemic of
the vaccinated. They told me that I was at fault.
They told me they were looking for me to die. So,
you know what, I don't care about them anymore. I
don't love them, I don't care for them. I don't
(09:15):
in any way worry what their opinion is. You don't
need to email me, Michael. You're supposed to love him
as a Christian. Oh, I love him as a Christian.
But don't get so carried away. Because we're in the
middle of a revival and we are, and I love it.
But don't get so carried away that you need to
tell me how much I need to love people. Because
(09:39):
if Osama bin Laden came walking down your street right now,
walked up to your door and asked you to come
in and hang out for a while, I'm gonna be over.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
His shoulder going.
Speaker 8 (09:47):
Don't forget to love him. I said, sim are out
there love on him. Don't take that out of context
exactly what that means. I am fully aware that there
are evil people in this country and they are my enemy,
and I am theirs, and I am fully aware. So
don't worry. When I die, I hope they dance on
(10:14):
my grave. I hope they celebrate my passing because just
as with Charlie Kirk, that is the sign that you mattered.
That is the sign that you were effective.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
In a war.
Speaker 8 (10:35):
When proof was brought back to the king of his
rival's death, or their greatest general or their greatest warrior,
there was celebration they had lost their great warrior. I
want to live a life so meaningful, so effective that
(10:58):
there is a celebrate that I will no longer be
able to do good work any longer, because they're tired
of losing to me. You know, when Michael Jordan left
the league, not everybody was sad. Not everybody said we'll
miss him. That opened the field to the fact, oh,
(11:21):
now some other people can win. When Tom Brady retired,
there were quarterbacks who started their career about the time
he won his first Super Bowl, and by the time
he retired, they retired. They never won a Super Bowl
because they weren't going to beat him in one. All right,
(11:42):
So let's get to it. I got to tell you,
I've been doing this for twenty years. Hard to believe
with the same team, we've grown. It's now me and
Ramon He's the king of dang. Daryl Kunda, who is
our creative director, Jim muh wait, Jim's a creative director.
(12:05):
What Jim is the creative director? Does coon to have
a title?
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (12:08):
He has earned it. Title? Yeah, I forget.
Speaker 8 (12:10):
Ramon gives the titles. He doesn't given to tell you.
And Chad, who's the boss of everything. He's the executive director,
executive producer. But we have been doing this for twenty years,
and I got to tell you, I've never had more
fun than now. I have never found this to be
more rewarding and meaningful. There is the minds of Americans.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Are fertile right now.
Speaker 8 (12:37):
Between all the lies of Hillary Obama being exposed, four
years of Biden, all of the people who said Biden's great,
Biden's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
No, no, no, he's good.
Speaker 8 (12:50):
We assure he's good. That caused a bunch of Americans
to have an awakening. Wait, if they're willing to lie
to us about that, and obviously they're a lying to
us about that, what else are they lying to us about?
And so that created a moment. You know, I call
them samplers. When somebody is driving through a town where
(13:13):
our show is airing on the radio, or maybe they're
on a road trip and they're driving through and they go,
I wonder what's on the local station. They turn it
on and they catch our show. We may only get
them for five minutes, but that person is what's called
a sampler, and you have an opportunity to make a
lifelong listener out of that person, which means you better
(13:36):
have a very high standard for the show because that
may be the only five minutes. You're lucky you got
that five minutes. Rush was adding listeners to the very end.
There were people who didn't know who Rush was, believe
it or not. I know this because I guess hosted
for him, and I would get emails from people who
(13:58):
said I was turned in, tuned in to Rush for
the first time. I just started listening this week, and
you guess hosted, and I'm thinking, how can there be
somebody who's just guests, who just now tuning in to
Rush Limball this week? How can that be? All right,
let's get to it. I just want to tell you
I'm excited about what's going on. I'm excited about today's show,
(14:22):
and it starts with Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of War.
He gathered the generals and the admirals, and you were
supposed to be scared, because that's what Hitler does. Hitler
gathers his generals and admirals, Oh my god, so he
could tell them in person that the times they are
a changing. Gone are the days of dudes and dresses
(14:44):
and fat asses and lazy people and weirdos.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
Those days are over.
Speaker 9 (14:50):
Remove the social justice, politically correct, and toxic ideological garbage
that had infected our department. To rip out the politics.
No more identity months DEI offices Dudes in dresses, No
more climate change worship, no more division distraction or gender.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Delusions, no more debris.
Speaker 9 (15:15):
As I've said before, and we'll say again, he's something nice.
We are done with that.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Say it on the Michael Arry Show. Go to the audio.
Speaker 8 (15:23):
This might seem like common sense to you and me,
but the Secretary of Ward, Pete Hegseth, needed to say this.
That's a bad sign, but it's a good sign that
he did.
Speaker 9 (15:35):
I don't want my son serving alongside troops or out
of shape, or in combat unit with females who can't
meet the same combat arms physical standards as men, or
troops who are not fully proficient on their assigned weapons,
platform or task, or under a leader who was the
first but not the best. Standards must be uniform, gender neutral,
(15:59):
and hot. If not, they're not standards, they're just suggestions,
suggestions that get our sons and daughters killed when it
comes to combat arms units, and there are many different
stripes across our joint force. The era of politically correct
(16:22):
overly sensitive don't hurt anyone's feelings. Leadership ends right now
at every level. Either you can meet the standard, either
you can do the job. Either you are disciplined, fit
and trained, or you are out. And that's why today,
at my direction, and this is the first of ten
(16:43):
Department of War directives that are arriving at your commands
as we speak and in your inbox today, at my direction,
each service will ensure that every requirement for every combat mos,
for every designated combat arms position returns to the highest
male standard. Only because this job is life or data.
(17:07):
Standards must be met and not just met.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
At every level.
Speaker 9 (17:11):
We should seek to exceed the standard, to push the envelope,
to compete its common sense and core to who we
are and what we do. It should be in our DNA.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
It's that simple. It is time.
Speaker 8 (17:28):
If you're not doing it, the door has been opened
for you, the way has been cleared. Be unafraid. I
don't think you need to go provoking people. Don't go
running around calling people the N word like you're some rapper.
No reason to pick a fight or insult someone. But
(17:50):
when it comes to the standards of operation of things
that matter, Hey, look, we're not going to let big
fat people that can't walk up the stairs serving combat units.
We're not gonna let girls who could not throw another
one of their peers one of their colleagues over their
(18:10):
shoulders and haul I'm wounded up the stairs into a
combat unit and we're not going.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
To give a damn.
Speaker 8 (18:19):
When everybody who has been so taught, everybody is so taught,
it's amazing they have they've all been so indoctrinated. Everybody
plays along and they go, oo, don't see that in
front of my wife. What is your wife applying to
be an active duty combat unit? No, but she'll think
that's anti woman. What how cup holded are you? Are
(18:44):
you your you think your wife is now in a
position to determine who should be in combat roles when
our country is attacked and you think that's okay, Well
she just boys, she'll go off. Let her go off.
(19:05):
How weak and pathetic are you? Do you believe what
she believes? Or is this part of the women's power move?
This is part of empowerment, it's not part of empowerment.
You don't change the facts. A woman who cannot lift
her fellow soldier, her fellow marine, her fellow corman on
(19:27):
her back and haul him up or down the stairs
to get him out of a region when he's been
severely wounded, should not be serving in combat period into
story and if somehow that's offensive to somebody because some
women have learned. You know, I'm supposed to act like
I'm upset when people say women can't do this. I
(19:47):
can do anything you can. No, you can't. But guess what,
here's a good part. You can't do everything a man
can do. But and that's the fact. Whether men can't
do everything you can do. Also, that's just a fact.
You can't do everything a man can do.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
You can't.
Speaker 8 (20:09):
However, you can do things that men can't do. Yeah,
you can birth a baby. And no matter how hard
they try, these men who claim their women cannot bring
life into this world. Had a woman email me this
morning and I had a medicare expert on, and I
(20:34):
would encourage you, if you want to learn a lot
more about medicare, to listen to our show this morning.
Because it's called Senior Health Services dot Com. They help people.
It's free to the user, it's paid for by the carrier.
But I send a lot of listeners who hit sixty
five or their parents hit sixty five and they need
(20:57):
help with medicare. Because Medicare becomes a very important part
of many people's lives when they hit a certain age,
and we were talking about people were sending in emails
for me to ask the expert. And one of them
was a woman who'd had an organ transplant and it
was her kidney, and her daughter had given her her kidney.
(21:20):
Her daughter's in her thirties, and she was talking about
and she told her daughter, no, no, I don't want you
to be a match. And her daughter say's not your choice.
I'm giving my kidney. And all I could think about
was you think about a woman brings a baby into
this world. The most powerful thing a human being can do.
She brings a baby in this world. Imagine if at
(21:40):
that moment you could look into that baby's eyes and
know that that baby you just created that now is.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
Going off into their own life.
Speaker 8 (21:49):
That baby is going to give back part of themselves
to your body to save your life. That is as
profound as anything.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
I can imagine.
Speaker 8 (22:06):
That is more awe inspiring than anything I can imagine.
Many women have been taught that to be complimented on
the things that make women different than men is to
be insulted. If you say most women have skills that
(22:28):
men don't have. Some of those are domestic. Many women
consider this an insult. They've been trained that wasn't always
the case. There was a time that would have been
a big compliment, And there are many women who think, yeah, yeah,
barefoot and pregnant. I feel sorry for those women. You
know you may, and that's your business to feel sorry
(22:50):
for people. And you're free to feel sorry for the
women who are at home with a family of children
who love them and a husband who loves them, and
feeling very valued and valuable and able to contribute and
feeling rewarded. You may feel sorry for that woman as
you're sitting in the bar tonight with another single woman
(23:14):
talking about your two ex husbands and talking about the
business that you spend your day at that has now
taken over your life. Or maybe you're the highly empowered
woman who is in the arms of your lover at
the concert and you're caught on the big screen. Because
(23:34):
you're so liberated, you feel free to feel sorry for
other women who have very fulfilling, rewarding lives while you're
drinking your sorrows away at how empowered and liberated you are.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Getting loaded.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Pete heegsas the military will return to the weight requirements
of old is said, it's tire tiring to look out
at any formation and see fat troops.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
Folks.
Speaker 8 (24:12):
I have heard from veterans who served in war for years,
twenty years, how frustrating it is to be in situations
where a person is a member of a team and
has no business being there. You know why we use
so many of these special forces guys, because we've allowed
(24:37):
our military to be politicized, and we've allowed people to
wear the uniform who have no business in a combat role.
So they end up with either the Marines or special forces,
or the combo of the two. So that you don't
end up with somebody who's out of their depths. You
(24:58):
end up with Rosio do funnel. As you know, a
warrior on the field, Well, that's not going to be good.
We've all seen the TikTok videos of fat people falling
down and it's funny. It's funny until that's the person
has to come get you when the Taliban has you
pinned down.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Here's what he said today.
Speaker 9 (25:20):
At my direction, we are also adding a combat field
test for combat arms units that must be executable in
any environment, at any time and with combat equipment. These
tests that look familiar. They'll resemble the Army Expert Physical
Fitness Assessment or the Marine Corps Combat Fitness Test. I'm
(25:40):
also directing that warfighters in combat jobs execute their Service
Fitness Test at a gender neutral age normed mail standard
scored above seventy percent. It all starts with physical fitness
and appearance. If the Secretary of War can do regular
hard PT, so can every member of our Joint Force. Frankly,
(26:05):
it's tiring to look out at combat formations or really
any formation and see fat troops. Likewise, it's completely unacceptable
to see fat generals and admirals in the halls of
the Pentagon and leading commands around the country in the world.
It's a bad look. It is bad and it's not
who we are. So whether you're an airborne ranger or
a chairborne ranger, a brand new private or a four
(26:28):
star general, you need to meet the height and weight
standards and pass the PT test. And as the Chairman said,
yes there is no PT test, but today, at my direction,
every member of the Joint Force at every rank is
required to take a PT.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Test twice a year, as.
Speaker 9 (26:44):
Well as meet height and weight requirements twice a year.
Every year of service. Also today, at my direction, every
warrior across our joint force is required to do pt
every duty day should be common SATs mean most units
do that already. Well, we're codifying and we're not talking
(27:06):
like hot.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Yoga and stretching.
Speaker 9 (27:09):
Real hard PTE. There's either as a unit or as
an individual. At every level, from the joint chiefs to
everyone in this room to the youngest private leaders set
the standard, and so many of you do this already,
active Guard and reserve.
Speaker 8 (27:26):
Ramon's feeling guilty, he's feeling triggered. He said, we're not
going to have to abide by that standard. No, no,
but we're not going to war. And that's just it.
Nobody has a right to serve in our military. Remember right,
You're not entitled to get to handle all the expensive
(27:49):
equipment and be put in a position to defend this
nation when you are not, as adjudged by the leaders
of our military, capable of winning a war. That's what
other militaries look like. We take pride in winning wars,
but you don't win wars with sloppy soldiers. It is
(28:12):
interesting that Pete hag Seth is forty five years old
and he's out there leading by example, doing pt.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
With the men who wear the uniform.
Speaker 8 (28:24):
This was one of the reasons they did not want
him as the Secretary of War because he shames the
old guys. The old guy is sitting around talking about
the days of old that may not have even happened.
And then, of course we've got to answer this question, well.
Speaker 10 (28:40):
What about the women. We've got to make a story
for the evening news. What about the women who are
going to be upset? Look not about keeping women out
of the military. If they make it, they make it.
Speaker 8 (28:55):
It's requirements, and if they can't make it, that's where
the rubber hits the road.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Folks.
Speaker 8 (29:01):
When you've got standards of this is what it takes
to fight a war, it is these are the physical requirements.
And then a woman comes in and she can't meet them,
that's the moment where you have to decide, do the
requirements matter and we're going to enforce them? Or are
you going to say, wouldn't I look like such a
(29:22):
nice person if I decide the requirements don't matter? Okay, well,
then how about this. How about we say we don't
care what your forty speed is. We don't care what
your bench press is. If you would like to play
offensive line for filling the blank for whatever football team
you support, college or football, a college or pro. So
if you're a Dolls Cowboys fan, we're going to have
(29:44):
Rosie O'Donnell play right tackle. And I know what you're
probably thinking, Rosie big enough, she might be able to
fill a slot.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I mean, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (29:53):
I don't think if you have an outside edge rusher,
she's going to be able to backtrack quick enough to
push him out and hold onto the pocket till that
can step forward. But at least she can keep somebody
from from running over her directly. They might shoot the
gap while she's still, you know, kind of down in
a position trying to get up.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
You know what I mean. But but.
Speaker 8 (30:19):
You don't let women play on your favorite football team,
and you don't care that it doesn't hurt that, you
don't care that it hurts their films. They don't get
to do that. And you got to figure, there's some
women that want to play pro football.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
There's a lot of money in it.
Speaker 8 (30:32):
Why don't you let them? Because you hate women? No,
because they can't do the job. It's that simple and
that's what should matter this and I want to be very.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
Clear about this.
Speaker 9 (30:45):
This is not about preventing women from serving. We very
much value the impact of female troops. Our female officers
and NCOs are the absolute best in the world. When
it comes to any job that requires physical power to
perform in combat, those physical standards must be high and
(31:06):
gender neutral. If women can make it, excellent, If not,
it is what it is. If that means no women
qualify for some combat jobs, so be it. That is
not the intent, but it could be the result, so
be it. It will also that we mean that weak
men won't qualify because we're not playing games.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
This is combat.
Speaker 9 (31:30):
This is life or death, as we all know, this
is you versus an enemy hell bent on killing you.
To be an effective lethal fighting force, you must trust
that the warrior alongside you in battle is capable, truly
physically capable of doing what is necessary under fire. You know,
(31:51):
this is the only standard you would want for your
kids and for your grandkids. Apply the War Department Golden Rule,
the nineteen ninety ten test, and the E six test.
It's really hard to go wrong.
Speaker 6 (32:08):
H
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Verie Show is on the air. The question is
friul Helm we are you lying then? Are you lying now?
Or are you not? In fact a chronic and habitual liar.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
When you hear the term fake news, you probably think
about how it's used often today by President Trump. But
it's actually an old term used by the Soviet Union
as a reference to disinformation campaigns that the Soviets and
now the Russians have long used to destabilize the West.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
US officials have warned that Russian interference remains an active
threat for the twenty twenty presidential elections.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Can't see.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
What she and is scumb MSD scum the New York
Times is scumb.
Speaker 5 (01:00):
Already had open contact with a person that the US
has called an agent for the Kremlin. Now we are
being told by two people who've been briefed on what
the FBI is doing that they're looking into whether these
unverified emails about Hunter Biden that were published earlier this
week by The New York Post about his business dealings
(01:21):
in Ukraine and China are part of this bigger Russian
disinformation effort in the twenty twenty election.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
CNN is scum, MSDNGS, scum. The New York Times is scum.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
President Trump will be at Mount Rushmore, where he'll be
standing in front of a monument of two slave owners
and on land wrestled away from a Native Americans.
Speaker 6 (01:42):
We do have now some of the sound. As I
told you, we're not in the audience. We're not carrying
his remarks live because, frankly, he says a lot of
things that are not true and sometimes potentially dangerous.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Shenn is scum, MSDNGS, scum. The New York Times is scum.
Speaker 7 (01:59):
Starting your tape right now, because I'm about to tell
you the truth and f you if you can't handle
the truth. This version of Biden, intellectually, analytically.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Is the best Biden ever.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Looking at the images and looking at what was actually
damaged that defends. Intelligence Agency has assessed that the core
components of Aron's nuclear program are largely intact, and that
Aron's nuclear program has essentially only been set back by month.
Speaker 8 (02:32):
Google unveiled something called the Google Glass. It would be
talked about incessantly in the news for the next two years.
It was two years before commoners could get it but
we would see video of famous people, movie stars, rock star,
(03:00):
media celebrities, and they would be you'd have b roll
of them at a party in Silicon Valley and they
would be wearing the Google glass and you couldn't hear
what was being said, but you could see from a
distance unity the camera was showing and they were at
a party, and they were walking around and looking and
(03:21):
this was crazy the other person.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
And they were all having so much fun.
Speaker 8 (03:24):
Gods were having so much fun, and you weren't because
you're poor and you live in Middle America. But they
were having so much fun.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
And they were.
Speaker 8 (03:32):
Laughing and go falling and thinking how great Barack Obama
was and laughing, and they were wearing their Google glasses,
and the other people were and you were not invited
to the party. This was the party. This was the
party to be at. This was where it was happening.
These people have fun. You don't have fun. You get up,
(03:54):
you lead a miserable life. You come home to your
snotty little kids, eat your crappy little food that you prepare.
There's no chef involved, no salt bay sprinkling salt, there's
no parsley or parse nips.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
For that matter.
Speaker 8 (04:09):
They're no fancy food, you know, Belgian undives or other
French references. There's no vintage to your wine, and none
of these, none of these things. Your life is meaningless.
Their life is so great. They're having so much fun,
so much fun. And off screen from everything you see,
there were all these little gay dues just running around there,
(04:31):
dig dig, and they're all with you know, they're all
dressed in they're their own little class of people, and
they're dressed there a certain way, and they're filming everything
and they're putting it on Instagram, and and.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
That's what was going on.
Speaker 8 (04:46):
And then in twenty fourteen, after they've done this for
two years, and you're sitting at home with your loser, lazy, sloppy, awful, poor,
broken down, uncool, I'll garden life. I guess we'll sell
you the Google glass. We've already had enough fun with it. Well,
(05:09):
I guess we'll let you have it here. Run out
and buy it peasants.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
And nobody did. And that was the moment.
Speaker 8 (05:18):
If you're paying attention, you realize this thing has been
sold through what's called earned media for two years. It
was a very sophisticated marketing campaign, and you the peasant,
you were going to get just a moment of living
like they live much later, but you were going to
(05:41):
get to you were going to get to experience their life.
And this is okay, let's kind of stupid to me
if you find yourself thinking, you know, everything Trump says
makes sense, and Schumer and Hakem Jeffries and ilhan Omar
(06:01):
and Aos and Nancy Pelot, nothing that these people say
makes any sense. They are saying, we're shutting down the
government because illegal aliens deserve health care when they're not
even here illegally. And you're thinking, how can this be?
Speaker 1 (06:17):
How can I buy her?
Speaker 8 (06:18):
You're losing your mind. Don't lose your mind. Don't lose
your mind. Everybody in the country is not buying the
Google Glass. Everybody in the country knows Google Glass is
a scam. It's stupid, it's silly, it's absurd, it's ridiculous,
it's it's it's it's some combination of of of Rue
Paul's drag Race and lifestyles of the rich and Famous
(06:40):
and reality TV and Desperate Housewives of whatever. Nobody lives
like this, Nobody has those opinions. Everybody knows boys don't
need to be in the girl's bathroom. Everybody knows we
don't need to be paying health care for illegals. Everybody
knows the illegals have to go. Everybody knows it. Everybody
you know knows it. And if you go, no, no,
(07:02):
that's not true. You know one person, your sister's married
to one douche and he doesn't agree. But the fact
is everybody knows that one odd weird person that comes
to your family gathering or works in your office or whatever,
they are the odd man out.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
They are.
Speaker 8 (07:22):
They're just loud. Everybody in America knows what's going on.
Everybody and everybody supports it. That's not one hundred percent
of the people, but it's close enough. We are Winny.
I want you to understand that. In case you're not sure,
trust me on this. We are Winny.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
The girls all get pretty at closing time when you're
listening to the Michael Berry.
Speaker 8 (07:40):
Show, the government is shut down and you don't see
him be as upset as you're supposed to be. You're
supposed to be really really upset. For some reason, you're not,
and I can't figure out why. Because we really need
you to be upset. We really need you to be engaged.
Everybody Fox, seeing n MSNBC. The government shut down looms,
(08:06):
what will happen? Join us coming up next? No, I'm
all right, I'm all right. I think I think y'all
got this. Yeah, I think we'll be all right with
a government shutdown. I don't live off the government. A
lot of other people do, but I don't. And those
(08:27):
people can, They can scramble. Let let them go beg
let them go plant some food for themselves, let them
go find the means. They're the same people who told
me during the the man made COVID shutdown that this
(08:52):
was a a disease of the vaccinated, a pandemic of
the vaccinated. They told me that I was at fault.
They told me they were looking for me to die. So,
you know what, I don't care about them anymore. I
don't love them, I don't care for them. I don't
(09:15):
in any way worry what their opinion is. You don't
need to email me, Michael. You're supposed to love him
as a Christian. Oh, I love him as a Christian.
But don't get so carried away. Because we're in the
middle of a revival and we are, and I love it.
But don't get so carried away that you need to
tell me how much I need to love people. Because
(09:39):
if Osama bin Laden came walking down your street right now,
walked up to your door and asked you to come
in and hang out for a while, I'm gonna be over.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
His shoulder going.
Speaker 8 (09:47):
Don't forget to love him. I said, sim are out
there love on him. Don't take that out of context
exactly what that means. I am fully aware that there
are evil people in this country and they are my enemy,
and I am theirs, and I am fully aware. So
don't worry. When I die, I hope they dance on
(10:14):
my grave. I hope they celebrate my passing because just
as with Charlie Kirk, that is the sign that you mattered.
That is the sign that you were effective.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
In a war.
Speaker 8 (10:35):
When proof was brought back to the king of his
rival's death, or their greatest general or their greatest warrior,
there was celebration they had lost their great warrior. I
want to live a life so meaningful, so effective that
(10:58):
there is a celebrate that I will no longer be
able to do good work any longer, because they're tired
of losing to me. You know, when Michael Jordan left
the league, not everybody was sad. Not everybody said we'll
miss him. That opened the field to the fact, oh,
(11:21):
now some other people can win. When Tom Brady retired,
there were quarterbacks who started their career about the time
he won his first Super Bowl, and by the time
he retired, they retired. They never won a Super Bowl
because they weren't going to beat him in one. All right,
(11:42):
So let's get to it. I got to tell you,
I've been doing this for twenty years. Hard to believe
with the same team, we've grown. It's now me and
Ramon He's the king of dang. Daryl Kunda, who is
our creative director, Jim muh wait, Jim's a creative director.
(12:05):
What Jim is the creative director? Does coon to have
a title?
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (12:08):
He has earned it. Title? Yeah, I forget.
Speaker 8 (12:10):
Ramon gives the titles. He doesn't given to tell you.
And Chad, who's the boss of everything. He's the executive director,
executive producer. But we have been doing this for twenty years,
and I got to tell you, I've never had more
fun than now. I have never found this to be
more rewarding and meaningful. There is the minds of Americans.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Are fertile right now.
Speaker 8 (12:37):
Between all the lies of Hillary Obama being exposed, four
years of Biden, all of the people who said Biden's great,
Biden's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
No, no, no, he's good.
Speaker 8 (12:50):
We assure he's good. That caused a bunch of Americans
to have an awakening. Wait, if they're willing to lie
to us about that, and obviously they're a lying to
us about that, what else are they lying to us about?
And so that created a moment. You know, I call
them samplers. When somebody is driving through a town where
(13:13):
our show is airing on the radio, or maybe they're
on a road trip and they're driving through and they go,
I wonder what's on the local station. They turn it
on and they catch our show. We may only get
them for five minutes, but that person is what's called
a sampler, and you have an opportunity to make a
lifelong listener out of that person, which means you better
(13:36):
have a very high standard for the show because that
may be the only five minutes. You're lucky you got
that five minutes. Rush was adding listeners to the very end.
There were people who didn't know who Rush was, believe
it or not. I know this because I guess hosted
for him, and I would get emails from people who
(13:58):
said I was turned in, tuned in to Rush for
the first time. I just started listening this week, and
you guess hosted, and I'm thinking, how can there be
somebody who's just guests, who just now tuning in to
Rush Limball this week? How can that be? All right,
let's get to it. I just want to tell you
I'm excited about what's going on. I'm excited about today's show,
(14:22):
and it starts with Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of War.
He gathered the generals and the admirals, and you were
supposed to be scared, because that's what Hitler does. Hitler
gathers his generals and admirals, Oh my god, so he
could tell them in person that the times they are
a changing. Gone are the days of dudes and dresses
(14:44):
and fat asses and lazy people and weirdos.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
Those days are over.
Speaker 9 (14:50):
Remove the social justice, politically correct, and toxic ideological garbage
that had infected our department. To rip out the politics.
No more identity months DEI offices Dudes in dresses, No
more climate change worship, no more division distraction or gender.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Delusions, no more debris.
Speaker 9 (15:15):
As I've said before, and we'll say again, he's something nice.
We are done with that.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Say it on the Michael Arry Show. Go to the audio.
Speaker 8 (15:23):
This might seem like common sense to you and me,
but the Secretary of Ward, Pete Hegseth, needed to say this.
That's a bad sign, but it's a good sign that
he did.
Speaker 9 (15:35):
I don't want my son serving alongside troops or out
of shape, or in combat unit with females who can't
meet the same combat arms physical standards as men, or
troops who are not fully proficient on their assigned weapons,
platform or task, or under a leader who was the
first but not the best. Standards must be uniform, gender neutral,
(15:59):
and hot. If not, they're not standards, they're just suggestions,
suggestions that get our sons and daughters killed when it
comes to combat arms units, and there are many different
stripes across our joint force. The era of politically correct
(16:22):
overly sensitive don't hurt anyone's feelings. Leadership ends right now
at every level. Either you can meet the standard, either
you can do the job. Either you are disciplined, fit
and trained, or you are out. And that's why today,
at my direction, and this is the first of ten
(16:43):
Department of War directives that are arriving at your commands
as we speak and in your inbox today, at my direction,
each service will ensure that every requirement for every combat mos,
for every designated combat arms position returns to the highest
male standard. Only because this job is life or data.
(17:07):
Standards must be met and not just met.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
At every level.
Speaker 9 (17:11):
We should seek to exceed the standard, to push the envelope,
to compete its common sense and core to who we
are and what we do. It should be in our DNA.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
It's that simple. It is time.
Speaker 8 (17:28):
If you're not doing it, the door has been opened
for you, the way has been cleared. Be unafraid. I
don't think you need to go provoking people. Don't go
running around calling people the N word like you're some rapper.
No reason to pick a fight or insult someone. But
(17:50):
when it comes to the standards of operation of things
that matter, Hey, look, we're not going to let big
fat people that can't walk up the stairs serving combat units.
We're not gonna let girls who could not throw another
one of their peers one of their colleagues over their
(18:10):
shoulders and haul I'm wounded up the stairs into a
combat unit and we're not going.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
To give a damn.
Speaker 8 (18:19):
When everybody who has been so taught, everybody is so taught,
it's amazing they have they've all been so indoctrinated. Everybody
plays along and they go, oo, don't see that in
front of my wife. What is your wife applying to
be an active duty combat unit? No, but she'll think
that's anti woman. What how cup holded are you? Are
(18:44):
you your you think your wife is now in a
position to determine who should be in combat roles when
our country is attacked and you think that's okay, Well
she just boys, she'll go off. Let her go off.
(19:05):
How weak and pathetic are you? Do you believe what
she believes? Or is this part of the women's power move?
This is part of empowerment, it's not part of empowerment.
You don't change the facts. A woman who cannot lift
her fellow soldier, her fellow marine, her fellow corman on
(19:27):
her back and haul him up or down the stairs
to get him out of a region when he's been
severely wounded, should not be serving in combat period into
story and if somehow that's offensive to somebody because some
women have learned. You know, I'm supposed to act like
I'm upset when people say women can't do this. I
(19:47):
can do anything you can. No, you can't. But guess what,
here's a good part. You can't do everything a man
can do. But and that's the fact. Whether men can't
do everything you can do. Also, that's just a fact.
You can't do everything a man can do.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
You can't.
Speaker 8 (20:09):
However, you can do things that men can't do. Yeah,
you can birth a baby. And no matter how hard
they try, these men who claim their women cannot bring
life into this world. Had a woman email me this
morning and I had a medicare expert on, and I
(20:34):
would encourage you, if you want to learn a lot
more about medicare, to listen to our show this morning.
Because it's called Senior Health Services dot Com. They help people.
It's free to the user, it's paid for by the carrier.
But I send a lot of listeners who hit sixty
five or their parents hit sixty five and they need
(20:57):
help with medicare. Because Medicare becomes a very important part
of many people's lives when they hit a certain age,
and we were talking about people were sending in emails
for me to ask the expert. And one of them
was a woman who'd had an organ transplant and it
was her kidney, and her daughter had given her her kidney.
(21:20):
Her daughter's in her thirties, and she was talking about
and she told her daughter, no, no, I don't want you
to be a match. And her daughter say's not your choice.
I'm giving my kidney. And all I could think about
was you think about a woman brings a baby into
this world. The most powerful thing a human being can do.
She brings a baby in this world. Imagine if at
(21:40):
that moment you could look into that baby's eyes and
know that that baby you just created that now is.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
Going off into their own life.
Speaker 8 (21:49):
That baby is going to give back part of themselves
to your body to save your life. That is as
profound as anything.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
I can imagine.
Speaker 8 (22:06):
That is more awe inspiring than anything I can imagine.
Many women have been taught that to be complimented on
the things that make women different than men is to
be insulted. If you say most women have skills that
(22:28):
men don't have. Some of those are domestic. Many women
consider this an insult. They've been trained that wasn't always
the case. There was a time that would have been
a big compliment, And there are many women who think, yeah, yeah,
barefoot and pregnant. I feel sorry for those women. You
know you may, and that's your business to feel sorry
(22:50):
for people. And you're free to feel sorry for the
women who are at home with a family of children
who love them and a husband who loves them, and
feeling very valued and valuable and able to contribute and
feeling rewarded. You may feel sorry for that woman as
you're sitting in the bar tonight with another single woman
(23:14):
talking about your two ex husbands and talking about the
business that you spend your day at that has now
taken over your life. Or maybe you're the highly empowered
woman who is in the arms of your lover at
the concert and you're caught on the big screen. Because
(23:34):
you're so liberated, you feel free to feel sorry for
other women who have very fulfilling, rewarding lives while you're
drinking your sorrows away at how empowered and liberated you are.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Getting loaded.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Pete heegsas the military will return to the weight requirements
of old is said, it's tire tiring to look out
at any formation and see fat troops.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
Folks.
Speaker 8 (24:12):
I have heard from veterans who served in war for years,
twenty years, how frustrating it is to be in situations
where a person is a member of a team and
has no business being there. You know why we use
so many of these special forces guys, because we've allowed
(24:37):
our military to be politicized, and we've allowed people to
wear the uniform who have no business in a combat role.
So they end up with either the Marines or special forces,
or the combo of the two. So that you don't
end up with somebody who's out of their depths. You
(24:58):
end up with Rosio do funnel. As you know, a
warrior on the field, Well, that's not going to be good.
We've all seen the TikTok videos of fat people falling
down and it's funny. It's funny until that's the person
has to come get you when the Taliban has you
pinned down.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Here's what he said today.
Speaker 9 (25:20):
At my direction, we are also adding a combat field
test for combat arms units that must be executable in
any environment, at any time and with combat equipment. These
tests that look familiar. They'll resemble the Army Expert Physical
Fitness Assessment or the Marine Corps Combat Fitness Test. I'm
(25:40):
also directing that warfighters in combat jobs execute their Service
Fitness Test at a gender neutral age normed mail standard
scored above seventy percent. It all starts with physical fitness
and appearance. If the Secretary of War can do regular
hard PT, so can every member of our Joint Force. Frankly,
(26:05):
it's tiring to look out at combat formations or really
any formation and see fat troops. Likewise, it's completely unacceptable
to see fat generals and admirals in the halls of
the Pentagon and leading commands around the country in the world.
It's a bad look. It is bad and it's not
who we are. So whether you're an airborne ranger or
a chairborne ranger, a brand new private or a four
(26:28):
star general, you need to meet the height and weight
standards and pass the PT test. And as the Chairman said,
yes there is no PT test, but today, at my direction,
every member of the Joint Force at every rank is
required to take a PT.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Test twice a year, as.
Speaker 9 (26:44):
Well as meet height and weight requirements twice a year.
Every year of service. Also today, at my direction, every
warrior across our joint force is required to do pt
every duty day should be common SATs mean most units
do that already. Well, we're codifying and we're not talking
(27:06):
like hot.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Yoga and stretching.
Speaker 9 (27:09):
Real hard PTE. There's either as a unit or as
an individual. At every level, from the joint chiefs to
everyone in this room to the youngest private leaders set
the standard, and so many of you do this already,
active Guard and reserve.
Speaker 8 (27:26):
Ramon's feeling guilty, he's feeling triggered. He said, we're not
going to have to abide by that standard. No, no,
but we're not going to war. And that's just it.
Nobody has a right to serve in our military. Remember right,
You're not entitled to get to handle all the expensive
(27:49):
equipment and be put in a position to defend this
nation when you are not, as adjudged by the leaders
of our military, capable of winning a war. That's what
other militaries look like. We take pride in winning wars,
but you don't win wars with sloppy soldiers. It is
(28:12):
interesting that Pete hag Seth is forty five years old
and he's out there leading by example, doing pt.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
With the men who wear the uniform.
Speaker 8 (28:24):
This was one of the reasons they did not want
him as the Secretary of War because he shames the
old guys. The old guy is sitting around talking about
the days of old that may not have even happened.
And then, of course we've got to answer this question, well.
Speaker 10 (28:40):
What about the women. We've got to make a story
for the evening news. What about the women who are
going to be upset? Look not about keeping women out
of the military. If they make it, they make it.
Speaker 8 (28:55):
It's requirements, and if they can't make it, that's where
the rubber hits the road.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Folks.
Speaker 8 (29:01):
When you've got standards of this is what it takes
to fight a war, it is these are the physical requirements.
And then a woman comes in and she can't meet them,
that's the moment where you have to decide, do the
requirements matter and we're going to enforce them? Or are
you going to say, wouldn't I look like such a
(29:22):
nice person if I decide the requirements don't matter? Okay, well,
then how about this. How about we say we don't
care what your forty speed is. We don't care what
your bench press is. If you would like to play
offensive line for filling the blank for whatever football team
you support, college or football, a college or pro. So
if you're a Dolls Cowboys fan, we're going to have
(29:44):
Rosie O'Donnell play right tackle. And I know what you're
probably thinking, Rosie big enough, she might be able to
fill a slot.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I mean, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (29:53):
I don't think if you have an outside edge rusher,
she's going to be able to backtrack quick enough to
push him out and hold onto the pocket till that
can step forward. But at least she can keep somebody
from from running over her directly. They might shoot the
gap while she's still, you know, kind of down in
a position trying to get up.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
You know what I mean. But but.
Speaker 8 (30:19):
You don't let women play on your favorite football team,
and you don't care that it doesn't hurt that, you
don't care that it hurts their films. They don't get
to do that. And you got to figure, there's some
women that want to play pro football.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
There's a lot of money in it.
Speaker 8 (30:32):
Why don't you let them? Because you hate women? No,
because they can't do the job. It's that simple and
that's what should matter this and I want to be very.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
Clear about this.
Speaker 9 (30:45):
This is not about preventing women from serving. We very
much value the impact of female troops. Our female officers
and NCOs are the absolute best in the world. When
it comes to any job that requires physical power to
perform in combat, those physical standards must be high and
(31:06):
gender neutral. If women can make it, excellent, If not,
it is what it is. If that means no women
qualify for some combat jobs, so be it. That is
not the intent, but it could be the result, so
be it. It will also that we mean that weak
men won't qualify because we're not playing games.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
This is combat.
Speaker 9 (31:30):
This is life or death, as we all know, this
is you versus an enemy hell bent on killing you.
To be an effective lethal fighting force, you must trust
that the warrior alongside you in battle is capable, truly
physically capable of doing what is necessary under fire. You know,
(31:51):
this is the only standard you would want for your
kids and for your grandkids. Apply the War Department Golden Rule,
the nineteen ninety ten test, and the E six test.
It's really hard to go wrong.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
