Speaker 1 (00:07):
Hello, everybody. It's my privilege to introduce to you all
the way from the South Side of Chicago, the Man,
the Myth, the Legend, my deal, your brother, the south
Side Unicorn.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
And what they closed. Romney wants to left it.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
He said in the first hundred days, he's gonna let
the big banks once again write their own.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Rules, unchanged water.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
They're gonna put y'all back and change.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Hey.
Speaker 5 (00:56):
Hey, hey, it's a boy Ken White, host of the
South Side Unicorn Show, and today we are honored to
have Senator Mike Morrell retired here on the show.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
There is an.
Speaker 5 (01:06):
Awful lot of stuff going on in America. There's an
awful lot of stuff going on in California. The newly
minted president, President Donald J. Trump, he was noted to
say that there's no America without the gold in California,
scenes that California plays a pivotal role in this history
(01:27):
onics that we're living through right now, and that being
the case, those things that happen in the state of
California are.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Very very important.
Speaker 5 (01:37):
Yeah, in the month of March, as you would agree, Senator,
we are about to engage in a new face on
the California CGP.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
That is a titular head for.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
Everything that's gonna happen on the West Coast. So I'm
honored to have with us today Senator Mike Morrell, Assembly
Member Mike Morrell. There's so many other hats that he
has worn, but he is now, ladies and gentlemen, throwing
his hat into the ring for the chairman.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Position of the c A. G O, P, yay, yay.
Thank you for coming on, Senator.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
What a nice introduction, very kind of you and gracious
thank you.
Speaker 5 (02:17):
Okay, I want to I want I want to titillate
the audience real quick, because again, when when, when when
I do these type of shows, Senator, I want the
people to get to know you. You know, I know
hum when when you hit the circuit, it's always you know,
you got your talking points and you got your people,
your handlers, and they all want to say.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Hey, do this, do that? Will you? Will you indulge
me a little bit? Senator?
Speaker 5 (02:41):
I want to just ask you a few simple questions
and then we'll drill down into some of the platform
that you want to present to the people.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
What do you think, Well, if I can start off
by one thing that you may like about getting it
on me. I stayed away from handlers, you know, because
I learned early on up in Facramental the handlers, Uh,
we come and go get elected, we lose, we win elections.
But they say so they they had their own little lingo,
like they I mean, it was ridiculous because I hear
(03:11):
them say, like, well, let's look at this problem for
from thirty thousand feet above. You know, they have they
had their little lingo. And so I after a few months,
I just said, you know, I'm not I'll listen to
my handlers once in a while, but for the most part,
I just felt I need to be Mike Morales. So
when you said that, I just thought that would give
you your audience a little insight into who I am.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
And that is exactly what I'm talking about. Good Senator,
you answered a lot by that you don't really deal
with handlers, which means you're you're the authentic thing. You
You're you're the real deal. We what we get, what
we see is what we get, right.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Yes, fortunately and unfortunately no.
Speaker 5 (03:54):
I would rather think fortunately, But I want to I
want to talk about some things real quick.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Yeah, in nineteen.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Fifty two, the American dollar had the equal worth of
eleven dollars and fifty four cent Today. The average price
of a home in nineteen fifty two was seven thousand,
seven hundred and fifty dollars.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
You could buy a Ford.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Car brand new off the Chobron floor for anywhere from
fifteen hundred to twenty three hundred dollars. Gas was twenty
cents a gallon. Senator Mike Morell, you were born in
October of nineteen fifty two.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
On the same date as Dwight D. Eisenhower October fourteenth.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
And you know they saved. Dates have a meaning. So
you were born under the same stars as President Dwight Eisenhower.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
I was, yes, sir.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
That says a lot. That says a lot. So when
it comes to you and your experience in America from
nineteen fifty two to present, have things changed for the
better for the worse?
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Well, you know, h on some things like technology for
the better, health much of it for the better. But
government has really hindered America. Of course, homes would not
be still seven thousand dollars today. But let me just
(05:23):
give you one example of the building industry, because I
was on the board of the BIA Building Industry association,
uh these builders because government wants so much money. And
these these these guys, these city managers now government employees
who who serve, you know, to help the public. These
guys are ranking in five to six hundred thousand dollars
(05:45):
a year, and so it's a big it's a big
machine going. So when a builder goes to build in California,
they have to get permits, uh to myths approved the
grade the land, to remove a tree, to put a
tree in for the slab, the plumbing, the electrical, the riffing,
and they get those processs and they call them entitlements
(06:06):
through in Biller's ice Boken too, it can take as
long as three years. So with a time value of
money and not being able to predict three years out,
it's ran a lot of the small billers out. And
so what happens if you look at the government in Texas,
which reduces government's power, you can do that same thing.
A bill er can build, buy that land closed escro
(06:26):
and have a home up and running and sold within
four to six months. And so again the time value
of money California is getting expensive and it's run the
small billers out who can't last through a recession if
one comes up in two three years. The second thing,
what it's done big government getting involved. And I use
this analogy because you can take it right across the board,
(06:48):
from building to healthcare to anything you want, the airline industry, anything,
because the government and all the regulation, it jacks everything up.
And so nineteen eighty a couple, a married couple of
thirty one years of age, we're buying their first home.
Thirty one Today that number in California is forty seven
(07:11):
years old. That's ridiculous, forty seven, thirty one to forty seven.
And it all is linked back to expanding the bureaucratic
state and forgetting our principles of limited constitutional government. And
again that goes that one example I give you. I
can speak on any industry for the most part, with
(07:31):
a little research, and I can show how they are
an impediment to people's prosperity. And that's one reason we
have so much regulation. That you have hundreds of thousands
of people and thousands of businesses leaving California. And the
last one was just a few days ago. Who'd been
here over one hundred years, Chevron, They're leaving California.
Speaker 5 (07:51):
Oh not chevron. I mean, do you drive past any
corner in the state of California and you've recognized the
familiar chevron upside down and ready to go. So we're
losing them. But but but how should I address you today?
Senator Mike?
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Which which? Which do you prefer?
Speaker 4 (08:10):
However you'd prefer Mike is satisfactory to me. So however
you'd like, you've.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Earned every title you have. I'm going to call you
Senator Mike Morrell. Now here we go. I hear what
you're saying, and that the the age of the American
dream is aging out because it's getting higher and higher
before you can actually own a home. Now, you were
a member of the California Assembly, you were a member
of a senator of the state of California. The governing
(08:40):
body is predominantly Democrat. Am I correct?
Speaker 4 (08:44):
You were absolutely correct?
Speaker 5 (08:47):
So all of these night Marrish policies and red tape
and the hold back on the American citizen is coming
from Democrats.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Is that a fair exstrapolation.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Well, let me go even a little bit deeper. They
were socialists at one time. They've sought sort of going
down that slippery slope to many of their Marxist ideologies,
which is about government controls every aspect of our life.
I mean, I was talking about billing, industry, consider school.
(09:19):
Think about our governor that, hey, anybody from any other state,
bring your twelve year old over to California, and we
will give them a transgender affirming surgery. Forget about your
kids growing up and changing their mind when they get older,
forget about allowing them to be a youth with innocence,
will remove their body parts here in California. I mean,
(09:42):
that's a state of depravity, that's him moral, that's evil.
But again that's government air interfering with parents' rights. No
one should have that decision except for the parents, and
even the parents should not have that decision until that
kid gets eighteen years old. Because look at we've all
done a lot of foolish things when we were twelve, sixteen, eighteen,
(10:04):
and I'm still doing fullish things, you know. But that
just shows you what government's done in California. In education,
I had a bill. It was the parents loved it.
The Democrats didn't want to prove it. It was anything
regarding the sex education. I made it so simple. I
just said parents should have a right to view this
(10:24):
stuff online. So just put it online, let the parents
look at it, and then the parents can decide. The
parents can decide, not government, whether they want their kids
to view that stuff. And the Democratic Party turned that
bill down. They don't think parents of Terry McGuffey, who
was the past governor of Virginia, said no, parents should
have no rights to these things.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
But that is a very pivotal point. And again, thank
you for coming on the South Side Unicorn Show.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Today.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Our President, President Donald J. Trump, just dressed down the
governor of Maine because she seems to be determined to
have the eyeball sockets of young ladies crushed by transgender
men participated in female sports. Now, all of this is
a cacophony of things, but I'm getting from you, Senator Morrell,
(11:15):
that you have a moral code that you operate from.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Am I right, You're absolutely right.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
That moral code. I was doing.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
You know, you have to do your prep work, and
so I did a little prep work with you, and
I came across something called The Road to Restoring the
Family God. That's a book that you authored, and might
I say, ladies and gentlemen, it is a very good read.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
The things you.
Speaker 5 (11:41):
Hear Senator Mike Morel is saying, right now, I think
it said scripturally out of the fullness of the of
the belly, out of the fullness of the heart. The
tongue speaks. You hear what the man is saying. You
see how he's led. I think that should be a
metric for how you vote or who you support when
it comes to the issues of the day, Because, as
(12:03):
the Senator pointed out, a child cannot enter into an
agreement to buy a home, but a child can enter
an agreement to permanently disfigure their bodies, and they might
change their minds by the time they're eighteen.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Well, I think a child has to be eighteen even
to buy a cigarette.
Speaker 5 (12:26):
Yes, yes, you have to be eighteen to smoke a cigarette.
But you can change your gender overnight, if that's something
you choose to do. Now, when I look through your book, Senator,
The Family Faith, these seem to be a recurring theme
in your book. Do you want to expand on that
the book that you authored, the Road to Restore in
(12:46):
the Family, because I'd like to say it's the Road
to Restore in America as well.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
What do you think, Well, you're absolutely right. In fact,
I spoke with a gentleman who was an assistant warden
at a men's present, and he said that ninety one
percent of his young men incarcerated in there come from
fatherless homes. And so Frederick Douglass, former slave, as you know,
(13:13):
to have a strong America, you have to have a
strong family. And so he was proponent of keeping families together.
And so I think the thing is back in the
old days, my garshon the seventeen eighteen hundred, to get
a divorce was almost impossible, you know, And because the
goal is the founders knew keeping families together, keeping that
father in the home, making him be responsible, taking really
(13:37):
bearing the brunt of the weight exactly.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
And Senator, you have to bear with me a little
bit because sometimes we got to pay the bills up
in here, so we got to go for a bit
of a station break.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Can I keep you on just a little bit more?
Speaker 5 (13:50):
Absolutely, outstanding, ladies and gentlemen, we'll be right back after
these messages go nowhere.
Speaker 6 (14:00):
Train the people only to consume Step two infil trade
adults with the news, Step three and doctor Nathan children
through the schools and the music and the apps on
the phones that they use. Step four, separate the right
from the left. Step five, separate the white from the black.
Step six, separate the rich from the poor. Used religion
and the quality to separate a more. Step seven, fabricate
(14:20):
a problem, made a lie. Step eight, put it down
the news every night.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Step nine.
Speaker 6 (14:25):
When people start to fight and to fight, take control.
This is called situational design.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Hey, hey, we're back.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
This is Kim White, host of the South Side Unicorn Show,
and we have Senator Mike Morrell on the show today.
He is throwing his hat in to become the chairman
of the California CAGOP, a very very important position at
this time in history. So we wanted to present him
to you all, ladies and gentlemen. I would say we
(14:54):
got to him through his handlers, but he set me straight.
He doesn't really use handlers. He's an authentic man. He
is someone that basically, you remember, I do these things,
I'll do it real quick. There's this thing in Greece,
and perhaps Senator Mike Morrell will correct me on this
if I'm wrong.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
When they make bread, there's a.
Speaker 5 (15:15):
Yeast that they have, and that yeast is a thousand
years old. They take a little bit of it and
add it to the new stuff to make the yeast
that you get such delicious bread from. And I say
that to point out Senator Mike Morrell.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
We are honored, we are.
Speaker 5 (15:30):
Blessed to have a treasure such as he. He comes
from a timeline where America got things done. Our president
is now using the phrase which I hope we all use,
which is get it done. Senator Mike Morrell's entire history,
throughout his political service, throughout his professional life, the man
(15:51):
gets it done. So if he were going to go
into the chair of the CGOP, you can imagine he's
gonna get it done. So I want to ask you now,
Senator Morell, the California Republican Party. Is it a beast
unto itself or is it actually part of the fold
(16:12):
of what we recognize as the correction of the GOP?
Is it its own thing or can it actually work
with the I don't want to use the word maggot,
because that's not a word I want to use. But
the Republican Party has changed. Has California kept pace?
Speaker 4 (16:32):
And well, the party has changed. We're veering, in my
personal opinion, more to the culture of the California State
more than changing the culture. You know, politicians, I hate
when they say we do polling, because when we do polling,
(16:54):
you know, the Republicans and some of the issues we
don't do as well in polling as the Democrats do.
But here's why that's wrong. Right, your greatest statesman in history, right,
Sir Winston Churchill, uh, said we have to fight the Nazis.
They kicked him out of power and brought Chamberlain in.
And then you know, Chamberlain made some peace everything friend,
(17:18):
and then when uh, they're getting ready Germany's gonna invade
Great Britain, they call Sir Winston back in the service.
So he stuck to his guns. Abraham Lincoln, if you
remember that Stephen Douglas and Abraham Lincoln debates. Douglas said, uh,
you know the polling, said the Americans, let's go and
(17:38):
remember the Tenth Amendment. Let's have slavery. Let's let each
state decide slavery. Lincoln said no, according to the first
paragraph of the Declaration, said, we're governed by self having
truth according to the laws of nature, and Nature's God
meaning God, places in the human nature of the buying laws.
So Lincoln said, we don't need the tenth Amendment to
tell us, Uh, if slavery is wrong on one state,
(18:00):
it's wrong in every state. But here's the problem with that.
Lincoln ended up losing that race. Okay, so the Republicans
didn't want him to run two years later, but he ran.
He ran on that same thing, and this time he
made the commitment and he won the American people. It
took him a while to get going, but he finally
made the case, which was a hard case. Went against
the party, went against all the polling. And by the way,
(18:22):
they didn't have polling back then, but they didn't have
popular opinion. And Lincoln warns, people do not have anything
to do with popular sovereignty, which means the same thing
as today. Don't go along with polling. Do what's right.
He did was what's right, in a Gorcigo's standards, one
of America's greatest presidents because he did the right thing.
So I think the thing is in California today, our
party is looking at poles, you know, and we can't
(18:44):
do that. We're bad at communicating what we believe. We're
bad at communicating the moral, the traditional morality, which we
should be able to win on. Trump's starting to show
that he can win on those traditional values. And so
I think the thing is, we always have to do
what's right. We have to be smarter in the way
we clearly communicate those things. If we communicate those principles,
(19:05):
well we can win here in California. But the problem is,
you can't run. You know, you got to be a
You got to be a person of conviction to win
your arguments. You got to communicate him. But you have
to stick to the political principles that made America great.
And again I refer to the Constitution as well as
the Declaration of Indepenance, because that first paragraph talks that were
(19:26):
obligated to follow those divine laws put there by the
uh our free.
Speaker 5 (19:32):
And I hear that theme coming out of you again,
I mean out of the fullness of the heart. The
tongue speaks. So you are a man of faith and conviction,
if I'm getting that correct.
Speaker 4 (19:42):
I try to be a man of faith, certainly not perfect,
you know.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Well, no none of us are.
Speaker 5 (19:46):
I mean, if a man falls down seven times, how
many times will you help him back up? That being
the case, I want to reflect, ladies and gentlemen, on
a time when I was at a convention. I was
during the time when Don Dix was still with us.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
God rest his soul.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
But I got a chance to take you in in
one of the halls. You were doing a speech I
believe it was, and it was very faithful in its
in its roots, and it was a very good speech.
Now I don't have it ready right now, ladies and gentlemen,
but I do have that on video, and I'd like
to insert it into this show at a later date
(20:22):
because this will be airing on a cable station. So
with your permission, I'm going to use that video from
the convention where you were in the hall and did
a speech.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
Is that all right?
Speaker 4 (20:32):
That's okay with me? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (20:34):
Because it was it was really good, ladies and gentlemen.
I was like, is here and this is the good
part about people like Senator Mike Morell. As he was
doing the speech, I'm like, is he a preacher or
what's going on here? Because I'm I'm feeling something. I'm
feeling moved and I it was a good speech, sir.
And what I'm what I'm getting from you is this
(20:57):
It's not one of those one sided things when it
comes to you, I believe you're you're in the mode
of Abraham Lincoln. I believe that the first paragraph of
the Constitution, it addresses you, and you respond to that
all men are created equal, because whenever I've seen you,
you've always treated all men equally.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
We're equal with different talents.
Speaker 5 (21:22):
Equal with different talents. Right, So it's like we start
off at the same point, but the results the ending
may not always be the same. Because isn't that the
difference between equality and what is the.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
What is the left call it equity?
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Equity? Thank you, sir.
Speaker 5 (21:39):
The difference between equality and equity is we all start
off the same, but we may not finish the same.
And I don't see how anybody could be out of
agreement with that. Segueing into that, we have some problems
here in the state of California. Our coastline was absolutely decimated.
We lost so much, and as President Trump is quick
(22:02):
to do whenever there's an issue of national interest, President
Trump seems to be laser focused on whether the negative
impact was by nature, by natural causes, or what have you,
or the dreaded d E. I I know that's a
I know that's a buzzword or lightning rod in the
(22:25):
world right now.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
But we're gonna touch on the idea.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
Of de I and where where you are with regards
to that. Speaking about our governor and the mayor Bass
of Los Angeles and the possibility of de I plan
a role on the West coast, what are your thoughts
about that, sir?
Speaker 4 (22:45):
Well, first of all, de I, Yeah, it's it's infiltrating
itself into our government. As you know, people are questioning, uh,
the EI picks for our air traffic control and and
that sort of thing. On the fires, you know, the
(23:08):
fire department having on like one hundred or two hundred
trucks out of commission, not having the the reservoirs full.
I don't know, you know who they were or what
they were. But if DDEI had any any hand in that,
it kind of goes along with why you don't want
(23:30):
to go, uh that path, because we should base things
based on merit. You know, I if I go to
a doctor or an airplane pilot, I want the best.
I want it based on merit. I don't want based well,
you know, we want to give this person a chance
because they're this or they're that. They you know, they
didn't grow up with the things that you know, what
(23:50):
I had or something like that. And so you know,
we just want the best. We want the best for
lawn portforcement went the best in the fire department. We
want the best in politics. I don't think anybody should
get free. Ride America is about pulling your self up
by the brute straps. And you know, I have people go,
you know you had a you know, easy life. Hey,
I did have an easy life, but my parents weren't wealthy.
(24:12):
I slept on mattresses, I didn't have a bed, and
I used to put cardboard in my shoes on rainy days.
You know, So you know God, you know, if you go,
if you go, we talk about faith. You go to
a book of Proverbs and there's over a hundred scriptures
on there. How to make money and be prosperous. And
it says he who works with the diligent hand will
prosper in a multitude of council there's there's victory. It
(24:35):
doesn't say provided you know you're this color of that color.
It just says hard work, speaking counsel, and you know,
you pray, and then you know you you also have
to have knowledge and learn your skills. A man who's
skilled in his craft will stand before men are renowned.
So you want to be skilled, and whatever you go to,
you want to work hard. Diligent hand will prosper. And
(24:56):
so because there's a lot of people in this country
who are prospering, I'm always amazed. I remember when I
first met some of these Vietnamese refugees. They actually came
to my real estate office back in the day, and
they wanted to buy homes right, and so, you know,
they they were interesting. They didn't look like us, they
didn't talk like us. But I tell you, I remember
(25:18):
talking to one gentleman. He was a Christian man and
he was becoming very successful in his own printing business.
And his name was Yip d i Ep he pronounced
at ypto. And I said, why are you making money?
And he said, in Vietnam, I had three jobs. I
worked sixteen hours a day, six seven days a week,
(25:42):
and I could just barely make enough money for the
you know, for food. And then he says this, He says,
I only have to work in easy ten hours a day,
six days a week, and I'm making all kinds of
money in America. And he didn't have the language down,
and back then Vietnamese people were not received well because
their culture was different, right, But I love what he said.
(26:03):
I only have to work in easy ten hours a day,
six days a week, but compared to where he had
came from, I mean six days a week was easy,
and he was prospering. And I told Jony, my wife
is probably a week or two ago. I wonder whatever
happened to him. I bet you he ended up making
a ton of money and I was.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Doing really well.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
And I want to capitalize on something you said, because
you brought out the scripture that a man you know
that learns his craft and he steady with his hand,
and then you use the phrase lift yourself up by
your bootstraps. Well, Senator Mike Monroel, I come from a
community where because I was born and raised on the
South Side of Chicago, as most know. As a matter
(26:43):
of fact, watch this. I'm gonna save that for the
next part of the show. We got to take a
station break, ladies and gentlemen. But I want to expand
on what Senator Mike Monroel said, because there's so much
wisdom coming out of him right now that I just
want to put a top over it. So Senator Monroell,
we're going to take a break. I still have you
here outstanding. We'll be right back after these messages, Ladies
(27:04):
and gentlemen, go nowhere.
Speaker 7 (27:16):
When I see a new broadcast from the south Side Unicorn,
I can't wait to listen to it.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
You just never know what he's gonna say.
Speaker 5 (27:28):
Hey, it's Ken White, host of the south Side Unicorn Show,
and we are back. And this is just getting more
interesting every word that comes from Senator Mike Morrell. I'm
learning something. I know you're learning something. You're getting a
chance to look at a candidate in a natural setting.
Just the conversation. And in the last segment, which if
you missed it, you need to go back and listen
(27:48):
to it because of what I'm about to say. When
we left from the last segment, Senator Mike Morrell used
the statement lift yourself up by your bootstraps. That's an
anathema to some people. Some people want to take that
very phrase as an affront. And I had to struggle
with it myself because I've had people that I know
(28:10):
ad my own respect and their answer back to what
Senator Mike Morrell said would be how can I lift
myself up by my bootstraps and I don't even have boots.
Now that's profound. That's one heck of a pushback to
a really good statement.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
So I had to think.
Speaker 5 (28:28):
About it from my experience in life, my growing up,
my growing up on the South Side of Chicago, where
people didn't have boots, but also with the fact that
I did learn a craft and a skill, and I
offered that craft and skill to people and they hired me,
and I made money and was able to do things
for my family and myself. So I have to mix
(28:49):
the two of those worlds together. And here's my answer
to that. Ladies and gentlemen, when you hear someone like
Senator Mike Morrell say the phrase lift yourself up by
your bootstraps, that's not entirely what that means.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Doesn't mean you got to have a pair of boots.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
It means that when the Lord breathes life into you
that morning or that night, you get up and you
do and you get a skill, you educate yourself, you
become proficient at something, and then you offer it to
the world. You don't need boots for that. Because he
just said he met a Vietnamese gentleman who said all
I have to do is work a meager ten hours
(29:28):
a day. That's a mouthful. So let's disabuse ourselves of
the political quickness of shutting that statement down of lift
yourself up by your bootstraps. Senator Mike Morrell, thank you
for being able to say that and have that as
your idea, because I believe probably in your life you've
helped people that you've seen lifting themselves up by their bootsteps.
(29:51):
I bet you got a story that you could share.
What it's some person you've helped.
Speaker 4 (29:56):
Well, yeah, I think you know. I used to teach
these classes in church. And one thing I know, God's
fork he's not against us. He doesn't look at race, color,
or creed, right, And so when he writes those things
in the scripture about he who works with the diligent
hand will prosper, and you you kind of said this, uh,
and the man who's skilled in his craft will stand
(30:17):
before kings, right, And so you've got it. You've got
to work hard, you've got to get skilled in your craft.
And in life, there's a lot of opportunities that people
want to give a hard working person. And so I
have had a few people that that over my life.
Who has that I've helped where they came back to
me years later and I told him, you know, there's
(30:39):
thirty one days in a month typically, and there's thirty
one chapters of Proverbs, which is the wisdom of God.
He tells those thirty one chapters encompasses here's what a
full looks like, and here's what a wide person looks,
a wise person looks like. And it talks about marriage,
how to have successful kids if you can. But again,
it talks a lot about money because you know, God,
(30:59):
I'm I'm not a health and wealth sort of guy,
but God, you know, wants us to prosper if we
can handle that prosperity, right, not everybody can. And you
know your us men are so.
Speaker 5 (31:08):
Sex can destroy you easier than hard times. I'm a
witness to that one.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (31:15):
Well, you know, a friend of mine once told me
us men are made up of two percent water, ninety
eight percent ego on pride, you know, and so we
have to manage that, you know, because I've seen friends
of Mike make a lot of money and then God
has to humble them. But yeah, I have been fortunate
to be able to share some of those principles from Proverbs,
teach them in churches and people have gotten back to
me over the years and have thanked me for those things,
(31:37):
which which that you know, that's one of the things
that drives me is trying to just share how people
can have a better life based on you know, integrating
faith into it, but also practical ways to do that.
So thank you for sharing it. You're You've been very
gracious and tying with your words to me today. Thank
you so much.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Well, we got a little bit of a surprise for
you too, Connie. Agnes given me with us right now.
She is Can we get her in? Can we bring
her in? Sure? Thank you, Thank you, Hony.
Speaker 5 (32:13):
Yes, she's the producer. She makes the things happen, makes
it all smooth. But Agnes Giveny just showed up and
we're going to bring her on real quickly.
Speaker 4 (32:20):
H And every good man is a great woman, by
the way, so fortunate to have her. Fortunate they have her.
Thank you for a training words. I mean him too, Agnes.
Speaker 5 (32:32):
Are you there, I am here, I'm standing. Thank you
for coming on, ladies and gentlemen. This is Agnes Gibney,
one of President Trump's angel moms. And she knew that
I would be interviewing Senator Mike Morel today and just
wanted to step in for a minute and share something
with the senator.
Speaker 7 (32:51):
Yes, hi, everyone, I just wanted to ask everyone if
you care about the Republican Party. If you do, I
don't like the way the Republican Party, the direction it's
going up to now, you have to vote for Mike Morrell.
He is a voice of reason, a man with incredible
integrity and character, a retired state senator, incredible family man,
(33:18):
pro life. We need someone like Mike Morrell in office
if we have a chance to win, if we want
change in the California GOP, we have to take these
people out. They have been in office until now and
we need new change. We need new people to bring
new ideas, a new vision and hope for the Republican Party.
(33:42):
So please vote for Mike Morrell.
Speaker 4 (33:46):
I like her words.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
Thank you good words.
Speaker 4 (33:49):
Right yeah, And by the way, if they want to
go to my website, let me give that real quick
like it's thanks Thagan so much. I appreciate that. It's
Senator Mike Morrell and Morrell spelled m O r r
e l L. And it's the number four chair dot com.
Let me repeat that, Senator Mike Morell, number four chair
(34:11):
dot com. And there is a way if you want
to contribute to my campaign, that would be grateful because
the other side has more money, more power. All I
have is God in my heart and good people like
Agnes helping me and that's I think we're gonna win.
But if you were so inclined to send some contributions,
that would be better and hopefully it can push across
(34:34):
the line. So thank you guys so much. And again, Agnes,
thanks for your kind words.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
I appreciate that outstanding.
Speaker 5 (34:41):
Yeah, and we're gonna go ahead and post your site
up on the uh Chiron when the show is actually
polished and put out for air production. Agnes Gibbini is
a is an absolute patriot, and I guess we can
count that as an endorsement of Senator Mike Morrell. So
with that, I want to talk about the upcoming impending
(35:03):
election for the California GOP. I'm going to ask you
questions that my audience would want to know, and I'm
going to ask you questions for myself. I need a
little bit of edification from you, sir.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
You got it.
Speaker 5 (35:15):
When is this historic election going to take place?
Speaker 4 (35:20):
Well, the convention is March fourteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth and
Sacramento at Ohiott and the election takes place Sunday morning,
is sixteenth.
Speaker 5 (35:30):
On Sunday morning the sixteenth, that's after the prayer breakfast, right, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (35:35):
So any of your people that would like to keep
that in prayer the sixteenth, I would appreciate that for
your listeners.
Speaker 5 (35:43):
I never stopped praying. Now, that's you know, upon which
I want to talk about. Agnes doesn't pull any punches.
She'll say what's on her mind. She's saying that the
very soul of the California Republican Party is hanging in
the balance between the two candidates.
Speaker 2 (36:02):
Now go ahead.
Speaker 4 (36:03):
I'm sorry that's a pretty bold statement, but I get
the feeling maybe it is because Agnes isn't the first
person who's expressed that to me. I have had. I
don't think I'm exaggerating. If I said I had over
one hundred people say pretty much the same thing, that
(36:24):
would not be a stretch at all.
Speaker 2 (36:27):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
So you know they're going to be those, especially the
younger Republicans. The younger Republicans, I love them, the young Republicans.
I really loved them. I got pictures with me and
them at the conventions where they just want't give me
hugs and whatnot. And for all you young people that
love me like that, thank you very much. But it
seems to me that the younger people are going to
(36:50):
look at the fact that the president power base is
responsible for President Trump coming to California, that they have
been re out to people. And yet when you look
at the fact that I believe this is their third
term as a team, that doesn't sit very well, does it.
(37:13):
I mean, doesn't the charter say that you should only
have two terms?
Speaker 4 (37:17):
The charter I believe does say two terms, but our
chairman lobby for a third. From my understanding I could
have this may not be accurate. And the board approved
her for a third term.
Speaker 5 (37:32):
If they approved her for a third term and her
vice chair was the same person that's vying for the chair, now,
isn't that termed out?
Speaker 2 (37:42):
Doesn't that term that person out?
Speaker 4 (37:44):
Well, it would term a person out from vice chair.
But they can run for chair though.
Speaker 5 (37:48):
Okay, okay, And is it still going to be two
terms or have they just said you can go for
three after this?
Speaker 4 (37:55):
Is that a new it's still two terms, so.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
That was just an unprecedented move at that time.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
That's what I heard.
Speaker 5 (38:03):
Yes, okay, okay, just to make it you know, clear
to my to my constituents and everybody that's out there
when it comes to you and the other candidate, which
we're going to offer the opportunity for Corn Rankin the
vice chair to come on the South Side Unicorn Show.
The chair is there, no pun intended, and the door
(38:24):
is open. But you're here and we're honored to have you.
And I want to ask you, in your opinion, what
do you see happening to the California c A goop?
Should Miss Rankin become the chairperson?
Speaker 4 (38:41):
Missus Rankin, Please, you're putting me on the spot, buddy.
Speaker 2 (38:44):
Oh yeah, just a little bit.
Speaker 8 (38:47):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (38:48):
Let me answer it this way. Instead of saying what
I think is going to happen if she gets elected,
I'd rather concentrate what I think I'm going to do
different than her if I get along enough. Okay, And
so I think the thing is uh uh, I'm not
going to have any of this DEI uh CRT or
(39:10):
affirmative action stuff. It's going to be based on merit
we're gonna promote those ideas. We're going to promote the
ideas of returning the education back in the court of
the parents. Uh. And I'm not sure where she stands
on that. Another thing too, that I think I bring
to the party is, you know, the fact that I've
got all that business experience, being and then plus being
(39:33):
on different boards, serving ten years in the state legislature
and being on you know, the vice chair of Health
and education, jobs in the economy, finance and banking, all
sorts of things water and power. So I've had quite
an extensive uh experience there, as well as ten years
of dialing for dollars and raising money, something that my
(39:56):
my candidate, my my competition can't claim that they've done.
And I have a track record of winning, man. And
I don't mean to be frightful of this at all.
God's been gracious to me. But I have a track
record of doing well in business, a track record of
doing well meeting on various boards from Arizona Christian to
the bi A as I mentioned before, as well as
being in the Senate and being cherished.
Speaker 5 (40:19):
Well, you know, you got them a lot to say,
and I'm grateful that you are on the show. We're
about to wrap up, but I gotta tell you one
more station break. You're in for a dime, you're in
for a dollar. So I'm hoping you will come back
with me after this station break, and we're gonna touch
on a few things and all of that that acumen,
all that history you were saying, let's lay it on
the people so they can be informed on who they
(40:41):
should vote for when we get to March. We'll be
right back after these messages. Ladies and gentlemen, go nowhere.
Speaker 9 (40:53):
You are listening to the south Side. You're in a
corn show hosted by my friend Ken.
Speaker 7 (41:00):
Right.
Speaker 4 (41:01):
Here'll be back after these messagers.
Speaker 10 (41:09):
Hey, my name is Too Sweet and I'm New York
City's original artist singing for the cause of freedom. I've
spent the last ten years of my life documenting history
through my music.
Speaker 4 (41:23):
It's like a recipe.
Speaker 10 (41:24):
It's plessively bringing out the best of me.
Speaker 2 (41:26):
Your decify testiny to creed you my own.
Speaker 10 (41:28):
Destiny and understandings and learn my listens and let them
be learning. And when I'm in need of a dose
reality to escape the liberal land and make believe, I
tune into the south Side Unicorn where the truth is.
The solid is New York City. Cox Babs, my name
is tooth Sweet, and you're listening to my friend Can't
White on the south Side Unicorn and his part is.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
Just getting started. He it's a boy Can't White.
Speaker 5 (41:59):
And we are back for the final segment of a
very very good interview. I would like to call it
a chat more so than anything. And as we were
leaving the last segment, we were getting as I like
to call it, a vore dyer of Senator Mike Morrell,
and it was impressive. So I just want to continue
on with that and the fact that this position of
(42:22):
c a Goop chair, it is pretty much very similar
to being an assemblyman. It's pretty much very similar to
being a senator or the CEO of a corporation, all
of these things you have in your life experience. And
you were about to say that you were very successful
(42:42):
in your businesses, am I right? So I guess I'm saying,
do continue please?
Speaker 4 (42:46):
Yeah, Well, anyway, I've got those skills that's transferable. And
so I guess the thing that I'll close with is
I just think I have the skills that it takes
that I've learned over the years which are transferable. Doing
this job. You said, you know, this is like being
in the Assembly or the Senate. I think it. Let
me say this, and this is not out of pride
(43:08):
or arrogance or anything. It is more like being a
CEO figuring out how to run a large corporation and
getting things done throughout the state. And I think it's
one of the most important jobs beneath the governor, you know,
if for the Republican Party, because I think we can
take back our state and I have the skills. I
believe that it's going to move us forward. And I
(43:28):
do say this with confidence and not with smugness, but
I believe I can do probably a better job by
moving the ball down the court than perhaps anybody else
who may be running for the seat outstanding.
Speaker 5 (43:43):
And before we wrap up, we have just a few
minutes of Senator. But another person wants to come in
and say something to you. It's both of our good
friend Catherine Dagel.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
Connie, do you.
Speaker 4 (43:53):
See Catherine Dagel, Yes, out of the path.
Speaker 2 (43:58):
He bring her in. Let's let's get her in here. Yeah, Catherine, Catherine,
it's good.
Speaker 9 (44:08):
How are you?
Speaker 8 (44:09):
I'm so sorry, I just got of the shower, so
you're not going to get a picture, but I and
I'm so I will re listen to the video so
I can hear what has transpired.
Speaker 4 (44:23):
But it's really.
Speaker 9 (44:25):
Wonderful to see both of you. I really appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (44:28):
Gars. I remember you twenty years ago. That's good. Yeah,
and you I think you left the state for a while.
Now you're back, so it's good to have you back
in California. We have to Uh, this was God's stayed
at one time. I'm convinced he wants it back, and
you and I and and Ken we have to we
have to make that happen.
Speaker 9 (44:50):
God is looking over us. I know this, and you're here.
I'm here.
Speaker 4 (44:58):
We have some great conservat We.
Speaker 9 (45:00):
Just need someone to gather together as a group and
collectively take back this state.
Speaker 5 (45:09):
Amactly, and I'm so honored at you here, Katherine. I
wanted to ask you a quick question. You left the
state and you came back. I mean you must have
been bumping into people because as you were coming back,
there are so many people leaving.
Speaker 2 (45:21):
So why did you come back?
Speaker 9 (45:24):
Because I have a home here, my child is here,
I have a life here. Unfortunately, Irvine has taken a
turn for the worst. And my daughter just took her today.
That's why I was late. She took her very last exam.
She will hopefully pick up her medical license for a
(45:48):
doctor next the end of the next week. So yeah,
there's a lot going on. Our kids need our help,
and Trump, thank God, is here looking out for children.
We need good parenting, We need great leaders to make
sure that our children and our grandchildren have the wherewithal
(46:14):
to be able to live, breathe, and sustain their lives
moving forward.
Speaker 2 (46:20):
Which is exactly what Senator Mike Morel was saying.
Speaker 5 (46:23):
You get educated, you learn a skill, and exactly you
will progress. And again, congratulations to your family and your
daughter for the hard work. That's not an easy feat
to do. And I want to keep it for a minute, Catherine,
because I want the both of you to speak on this.
The young people we have, the young Republicans, and they
seem to be wanting to support in other directions. But
(46:45):
yet at the same time, when you hear some of
the platform of the other competitors.
Speaker 2 (46:52):
They say we need to draw closer to.
Speaker 5 (46:54):
The Democrat Party in California.
Speaker 2 (46:57):
What say you both?
Speaker 4 (47:00):
Go ahead?
Speaker 2 (47:01):
Catherine, Yeah, you got on unmute.
Speaker 8 (47:06):
I know that my dogs are having a fight on
my floor, and my daughter took off here for a second.
Speaker 9 (47:14):
So bear with me.
Speaker 8 (47:16):
Uh, the parties having problems with and I believe with
the leadership. And I say this because the leadership is faltering.
So our young people, even though there's so many that
really support President Trump and his leadership, somehow somewhere there
(47:41):
are faltering with the parents and the leadership that is,
you know, speaking out now. I have young Republicans here
at you see, I there's a really large group. Huntington
Beach and Newport Beach are very good conservative Republicans. It's
(48:04):
the fault of the leaders, and the leaders are the
should be accountable to new and upcoming new Republicans. You
just got to get in there and talk to them
and make it worth their while. It's just not happening
here because.
Speaker 9 (48:25):
I need to say, the Rhinos uniparty is controlling a
lot of what's going on in this state.
Speaker 4 (48:33):
And like I said, I missed the first.
Speaker 8 (48:35):
Half of the conversation, So I just don't know where
I can move forward and go on because I'm appropriate.
Speaker 2 (48:45):
Let me posit this real quick right there.
Speaker 5 (48:46):
Katherine, Senator Mike Morrell, will you give your contact information
once again so that those on the last half of
the show will know how to reach you.
Speaker 4 (48:55):
Yeah, Senator Mike Morrell, and moreles Phil m r R Ell.
Well the number four chare dot com. Let me repeat that,
Senator Mike Morale, number four chair dot com. Leave a
message there. Yeah, whatever, He's.
Speaker 5 (49:14):
Like, I'm standing and Connie ever ever, being so vigilant,
she put it in the chat. So for those of
you who are watching all around the nation and the world,
you can get that information on the chat section. But now,
Senator Mike Morrel, the same question goes to you are young.
Speaker 2 (49:30):
People, what.
Speaker 5 (49:33):
Do you see if we draw near to the Democrat
Party of California, Because some of the people competing for
the chair believe that we need to establish some type
of relationship with the Democrat Party of the state of California.
Speaker 4 (49:47):
You know, you can compromise your preferences all day long,
but not your principles. And so we were compromised with
anybody when it comes to preferences, but we need to
stick to those constitutional principles, which so far Themocrats have
proven that they're more aligned uh with Marx SoC ietyology
from our education to our business than they are with
(50:08):
our constitutional principles. So I don't have a problem aligning
with people who want to six those those constitutional principles.
But you can't. You can't dance with the devil, right.
And so also this thing about the party wanting to
compromise and and you know, try to be all things
to all people, that's not what the great leaders in
history has done. I mentioned Winston Churchill, before Abraham Lincoln,
(50:31):
and most recently, uh, the other guy, Ronald Reagan.
Speaker 2 (50:35):
Right.
Speaker 4 (50:38):
I love that man. I love that man, and he uh,
you know, they told him a bunch of times State
Department knock off Colin that you're going to start World
War three calling the Soviets the evil Empire. And then
if you saw the movie, they tried to have him,
uh strike that phrase, uh Secretary Gorbuchoff's tear down this wall.
But but you know what, he stuck to his print.
(51:00):
He didn't compromise with his own party, his own party
and advisors, his handlers, as you said earlier the show
were telling them not to say X, Y and Z.
He said it. He knew it was right. And the
whole reason, by the way he did that it has
to do with faith, because he knew communism prevented his
words people his words, communism prevented people from experience and
(51:21):
noise from experiencing the joys of knowing God. And so
he wanted to set those three billion people free. So
there are million, three hundred million, I mean free, so
they could experience joys to knowing God. So that's why
he kept on. And he was a man of principle.
He didn't cave to the Handlers or even his Republicans.
And so we can't do that today. There's principles that
(51:41):
God places in there, and you can read that in
the first two paragraphs of the declaration that they're self
evident truth and there's a path to find those self
evident truth. And I've mentored a lot of college kids,
two to three hundred of them that were my interns,
and they'll come around if you talk to him about that.
We can persuade a lot of people. People are looking
(52:02):
for right answers right now. Our country's prime for this.
You know, Joe Rogan used to be a liberal, right
and then he moved to be the Rio. Yeah, now
if you listen to his program, now, guy's very conservative,
and I think that's where a lot of American people are.
They're looking for answers, and we've got to be there
to give them the right answers, not be us from
our mind, but standing on the shoulders of those people
(52:24):
who possess a superior wisdom than ourselves. And so we
can do that, and we can win if we stick
to that game plan.
Speaker 2 (52:30):
I like it. I like it.
Speaker 5 (52:31):
And so in wrapping this up, and Katherine, thank you
for coming in. You know, I hope that we catch
up one day very soon. Congratulations to your daughter the doctor,
and happy to have you here. And that's one more
good doctor. I'm imagining that if I were sick, because
it's so funny. Senator Mike Morell said that earlier in
the show, when it comes to a pilot or a doctor,
(52:53):
he doesn't care what color or gender they are. He
just wants them to be competent and good because of you,
because of what we believe in, how you raised your children,
so forth and so on, I think we'd be in
pretty good hands with the good doctor that you raised.
Speaker 9 (53:09):
Yes, compassion, compassion and truth and truth.
Speaker 5 (53:15):
So I'm summing up you. You did it, Catherine. You
said compassion and truth. I want to sum this show
up as we go into the close of the show
about Senator Mike Morrell and what I think I've gotten
from the show and I hope others have gotten from
the show. I've gotten God, constitution, commitment, compassion, fairness.
Speaker 2 (53:36):
And leadership.
Speaker 5 (53:37):
These are the things I'm hearing come out of Senator
Mike Morrel.
Speaker 9 (53:39):
What do you think, Catherine, Absolutely, I couldn't agree with
him more.
Speaker 2 (53:44):
Absolutely.
Speaker 5 (53:46):
That sums it up. And so, ladies and gentlemen, you
have just had a slight look at the man, Senator
Mike Morrell, who is running for the California c Ago
P chair. It's a binary thing. You can get with
this or you can get with that. And as he
said throughout the show, it doesn't matter about endorsements, this,
that or the other thing.
Speaker 2 (54:06):
You need to go with the people who.
Speaker 5 (54:07):
Have uncompromising principles, who want to help and can lead.
Having said that, I'll give the last one minute to you,
Senator Mike Morrell, because we have to go.
Speaker 4 (54:18):
Well, Connie, all you three, Kathy, thanks so much for
having me on. I'm honored to be here. You guys
were kind with your words and matter of fact, your
words having our guests on here today were very encouraging
to me. And it's people like that that allows me
to keep going and gives me strength mentally, spiritually, physically, emotionally.
(54:41):
So thank you, and I just be honored if folks
will go to my website check it out, prayer support
and any other support you can learn, and I would
be honored. And I hope that I end up leading
this state and I pray that opportunity, the winds would
flow our way and with the help of God, we
can in California around back to the Golden State again.
(55:03):
At one time, this was his state with twenty one missions.
Campus Crusade founded here, focus on the family, this is
the three revivals. This was his state at one time.
I'm convinced he wants it back, but it's up to
us for the people to do that. So with that,
thank you for having me on your show.
Speaker 5 (55:20):
I am honored, I'm standing we are equally as honored, sir.
And in closing, I say, hey, listen to me. There's
no place I'd rather be. There's nothing more I'd rather
do than being right here doing this show for you.
I'm Ken White hosted the South side Unicorn Show and
we are out.
Speaker 4 (55:39):
Thanks Ken Well, thank you
Hello, everybody. It's my privilege to introduce to you all
the way from the South Side of Chicago, the Man,
the Myth, the Legend, my deal, your brother, the south
Side Unicorn.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
And what they closed. Romney wants to left it.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
He said in the first hundred days, he's gonna let
the big banks once again write their own.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Rules, unchanged water.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
They're gonna put y'all back and change.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Hey.
Speaker 5 (00:56):
Hey, hey, it's a boy Ken White, host of the
South Side Unicorn Show, and today we are honored to
have Senator Mike Morrell retired here on the show.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
There is an.
Speaker 5 (01:06):
Awful lot of stuff going on in America. There's an
awful lot of stuff going on in California. The newly
minted president, President Donald J. Trump, he was noted to
say that there's no America without the gold in California,
scenes that California plays a pivotal role in this history
(01:27):
onics that we're living through right now, and that being
the case, those things that happen in the state of
California are.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Very very important.
Speaker 5 (01:37):
Yeah, in the month of March, as you would agree, Senator,
we are about to engage in a new face on
the California CGP.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
That is a titular head for.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
Everything that's gonna happen on the West Coast. So I'm
honored to have with us today Senator Mike Morrell, Assembly
Member Mike Morrell. There's so many other hats that he
has worn, but he is now, ladies and gentlemen, throwing
his hat into the ring for the chairman.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Position of the c A. G O, P, yay, yay.
Thank you for coming on, Senator.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
What a nice introduction, very kind of you and gracious
thank you.
Speaker 5 (02:17):
Okay, I want to I want I want to titillate
the audience real quick, because again, when when, when when
I do these type of shows, Senator, I want the
people to get to know you. You know, I know
hum when when you hit the circuit, it's always you know,
you got your talking points and you got your people,
your handlers, and they all want to say.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Hey, do this, do that? Will you? Will you indulge
me a little bit? Senator?
Speaker 5 (02:41):
I want to just ask you a few simple questions
and then we'll drill down into some of the platform
that you want to present to the people.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
What do you think, Well, if I can start off
by one thing that you may like about getting it
on me. I stayed away from handlers, you know, because
I learned early on up in Facramental the handlers, Uh,
we come and go get elected, we lose, we win elections.
But they say so they they had their own little lingo,
like they I mean, it was ridiculous because I hear
(03:11):
them say, like, well, let's look at this problem for
from thirty thousand feet above. You know, they have they
had their little lingo. And so I after a few months,
I just said, you know, I'm not I'll listen to
my handlers once in a while, but for the most part,
I just felt I need to be Mike Morales. So
when you said that, I just thought that would give
you your audience a little insight into who I am.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
And that is exactly what I'm talking about. Good Senator,
you answered a lot by that you don't really deal
with handlers, which means you're you're the authentic thing. You
You're you're the real deal. We what we get, what
we see is what we get, right.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Yes, fortunately and unfortunately no.
Speaker 5 (03:54):
I would rather think fortunately, But I want to I
want to talk about some things real quick.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Yeah, in nineteen.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Fifty two, the American dollar had the equal worth of
eleven dollars and fifty four cent Today. The average price
of a home in nineteen fifty two was seven thousand,
seven hundred and fifty dollars.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
You could buy a Ford.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Car brand new off the Chobron floor for anywhere from
fifteen hundred to twenty three hundred dollars. Gas was twenty
cents a gallon. Senator Mike Morell, you were born in
October of nineteen fifty two.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
On the same date as Dwight D. Eisenhower October fourteenth.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
And you know they saved. Dates have a meaning. So
you were born under the same stars as President Dwight Eisenhower.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
I was, yes, sir.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
That says a lot. That says a lot. So when
it comes to you and your experience in America from
nineteen fifty two to present, have things changed for the
better for the worse?
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Well, you know, h on some things like technology for
the better, health much of it for the better. But
government has really hindered America. Of course, homes would not
be still seven thousand dollars today. But let me just
(05:23):
give you one example of the building industry, because I
was on the board of the BIA Building Industry association,
uh these builders because government wants so much money. And
these these these guys, these city managers now government employees
who who serve, you know, to help the public. These
guys are ranking in five to six hundred thousand dollars
(05:45):
a year, and so it's a big it's a big
machine going. So when a builder goes to build in California,
they have to get permits, uh to myths approved the
grade the land, to remove a tree, to put a
tree in for the slab, the plumbing, the electrical, the riffing,
and they get those processs and they call them entitlements
(06:06):
through in Biller's ice Boken too, it can take as
long as three years. So with a time value of
money and not being able to predict three years out,
it's ran a lot of the small billers out. And
so what happens if you look at the government in Texas,
which reduces government's power, you can do that same thing.
A bill er can build, buy that land closed escro
(06:26):
and have a home up and running and sold within
four to six months. And so again the time value
of money California is getting expensive and it's run the
small billers out who can't last through a recession if
one comes up in two three years. The second thing,
what it's done big government getting involved. And I use
this analogy because you can take it right across the board,
(06:48):
from building to healthcare to anything you want, the airline industry, anything,
because the government and all the regulation, it jacks everything up.
And so nineteen eighty a couple, a married couple of
thirty one years of age, we're buying their first home.
Thirty one Today that number in California is forty seven
(07:11):
years old. That's ridiculous, forty seven, thirty one to forty seven.
And it all is linked back to expanding the bureaucratic
state and forgetting our principles of limited constitutional government. And
again that goes that one example I give you. I
can speak on any industry for the most part, with
(07:31):
a little research, and I can show how they are
an impediment to people's prosperity. And that's one reason we
have so much regulation. That you have hundreds of thousands
of people and thousands of businesses leaving California. And the
last one was just a few days ago. Who'd been
here over one hundred years, Chevron, They're leaving California.
Speaker 5 (07:51):
Oh not chevron. I mean, do you drive past any
corner in the state of California and you've recognized the
familiar chevron upside down and ready to go. So we're
losing them. But but but how should I address you today?
Senator Mike?
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Which which? Which do you prefer?
Speaker 4 (08:10):
However you'd prefer Mike is satisfactory to me. So however
you'd like, you've.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Earned every title you have. I'm going to call you
Senator Mike Morrell. Now here we go. I hear what
you're saying, and that the the age of the American
dream is aging out because it's getting higher and higher
before you can actually own a home. Now, you were
a member of the California Assembly, you were a member
of a senator of the state of California. The governing
(08:40):
body is predominantly Democrat. Am I correct?
Speaker 4 (08:44):
You were absolutely correct?
Speaker 5 (08:47):
So all of these night Marrish policies and red tape
and the hold back on the American citizen is coming
from Democrats.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Is that a fair exstrapolation.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Well, let me go even a little bit deeper. They
were socialists at one time. They've sought sort of going
down that slippery slope to many of their Marxist ideologies,
which is about government controls every aspect of our life.
I mean, I was talking about billing, industry, consider school.
(09:19):
Think about our governor that, hey, anybody from any other state,
bring your twelve year old over to California, and we
will give them a transgender affirming surgery. Forget about your
kids growing up and changing their mind when they get older,
forget about allowing them to be a youth with innocence,
will remove their body parts here in California. I mean,
(09:42):
that's a state of depravity, that's him moral, that's evil.
But again that's government air interfering with parents' rights. No
one should have that decision except for the parents, and
even the parents should not have that decision until that
kid gets eighteen years old. Because look at we've all
done a lot of foolish things when we were twelve, sixteen, eighteen,
(10:04):
and I'm still doing fullish things, you know. But that
just shows you what government's done in California. In education,
I had a bill. It was the parents loved it.
The Democrats didn't want to prove it. It was anything
regarding the sex education. I made it so simple. I
just said parents should have a right to view this
(10:24):
stuff online. So just put it online, let the parents
look at it, and then the parents can decide. The
parents can decide, not government, whether they want their kids
to view that stuff. And the Democratic Party turned that
bill down. They don't think parents of Terry McGuffey, who
was the past governor of Virginia, said no, parents should
have no rights to these things.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
But that is a very pivotal point. And again, thank
you for coming on the South Side Unicorn Show.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Today.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Our President, President Donald J. Trump, just dressed down the
governor of Maine because she seems to be determined to
have the eyeball sockets of young ladies crushed by transgender
men participated in female sports. Now, all of this is
a cacophony of things, but I'm getting from you, Senator Morrell,
(11:15):
that you have a moral code that you operate from.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Am I right, You're absolutely right.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
That moral code. I was doing.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
You know, you have to do your prep work, and
so I did a little prep work with you, and
I came across something called The Road to Restoring the
Family God. That's a book that you authored, and might
I say, ladies and gentlemen, it is a very good read.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
The things you.
Speaker 5 (11:41):
Hear Senator Mike Morel is saying, right now, I think
it said scripturally out of the fullness of the of
the belly, out of the fullness of the heart. The
tongue speaks. You hear what the man is saying. You
see how he's led. I think that should be a
metric for how you vote or who you support when
it comes to the issues of the day, Because, as
(12:03):
the Senator pointed out, a child cannot enter into an
agreement to buy a home, but a child can enter
an agreement to permanently disfigure their bodies, and they might
change their minds by the time they're eighteen.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Well, I think a child has to be eighteen even
to buy a cigarette.
Speaker 5 (12:26):
Yes, yes, you have to be eighteen to smoke a cigarette.
But you can change your gender overnight, if that's something
you choose to do. Now, when I look through your book, Senator,
The Family Faith, these seem to be a recurring theme
in your book. Do you want to expand on that
the book that you authored, the Road to Restore in
(12:46):
the Family, because I'd like to say it's the Road
to Restore in America as well.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
What do you think, Well, you're absolutely right. In fact,
I spoke with a gentleman who was an assistant warden
at a men's present, and he said that ninety one
percent of his young men incarcerated in there come from
fatherless homes. And so Frederick Douglass, former slave, as you know,
(13:13):
to have a strong America, you have to have a
strong family. And so he was proponent of keeping families together.
And so I think the thing is back in the
old days, my garshon the seventeen eighteen hundred, to get
a divorce was almost impossible, you know, And because the
goal is the founders knew keeping families together, keeping that
father in the home, making him be responsible, taking really
(13:37):
bearing the brunt of the weight exactly.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
And Senator, you have to bear with me a little
bit because sometimes we got to pay the bills up
in here, so we got to go for a bit
of a station break.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Can I keep you on just a little bit more?
Speaker 5 (13:50):
Absolutely, outstanding, ladies and gentlemen, we'll be right back after
these messages go nowhere.
Speaker 6 (14:00):
Train the people only to consume Step two infil trade
adults with the news, Step three and doctor Nathan children
through the schools and the music and the apps on
the phones that they use. Step four, separate the right
from the left. Step five, separate the white from the black.
Step six, separate the rich from the poor. Used religion
and the quality to separate a more. Step seven, fabricate
(14:20):
a problem, made a lie. Step eight, put it down
the news every night.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Step nine.
Speaker 6 (14:25):
When people start to fight and to fight, take control.
This is called situational design.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Hey, hey, we're back.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
This is Kim White, host of the South Side Unicorn Show,
and we have Senator Mike Morrell on the show today.
He is throwing his hat in to become the chairman
of the California CAGOP, a very very important position at
this time in history. So we wanted to present him
to you all, ladies and gentlemen. I would say we
(14:54):
got to him through his handlers, but he set me straight.
He doesn't really use handlers. He's an authentic man. He
is someone that basically, you remember, I do these things,
I'll do it real quick. There's this thing in Greece,
and perhaps Senator Mike Morrell will correct me on this
if I'm wrong.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
When they make bread, there's a.
Speaker 5 (15:15):
Yeast that they have, and that yeast is a thousand
years old. They take a little bit of it and
add it to the new stuff to make the yeast
that you get such delicious bread from. And I say
that to point out Senator Mike Morrell.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
We are honored, we are.
Speaker 5 (15:30):
Blessed to have a treasure such as he. He comes
from a timeline where America got things done. Our president
is now using the phrase which I hope we all use,
which is get it done. Senator Mike Morrell's entire history,
throughout his political service, throughout his professional life, the man
(15:51):
gets it done. So if he were going to go
into the chair of the CGOP, you can imagine he's
gonna get it done. So I want to ask you now,
Senator Morell, the California Republican Party. Is it a beast
unto itself or is it actually part of the fold
(16:12):
of what we recognize as the correction of the GOP?
Is it its own thing or can it actually work
with the I don't want to use the word maggot,
because that's not a word I want to use. But
the Republican Party has changed. Has California kept pace?
Speaker 4 (16:32):
And well, the party has changed. We're veering, in my
personal opinion, more to the culture of the California State
more than changing the culture. You know, politicians, I hate
when they say we do polling, because when we do polling,
(16:54):
you know, the Republicans and some of the issues we
don't do as well in polling as the Democrats do.
But here's why that's wrong. Right, your greatest statesman in history, right,
Sir Winston Churchill, uh, said we have to fight the Nazis.
They kicked him out of power and brought Chamberlain in.
And then you know, Chamberlain made some peace everything friend,
(17:18):
and then when uh, they're getting ready Germany's gonna invade
Great Britain, they call Sir Winston back in the service.
So he stuck to his guns. Abraham Lincoln, if you
remember that Stephen Douglas and Abraham Lincoln debates. Douglas said, uh,
you know the polling, said the Americans, let's go and
(17:38):
remember the Tenth Amendment. Let's have slavery. Let's let each
state decide slavery. Lincoln said no, according to the first
paragraph of the Declaration, said, we're governed by self having
truth according to the laws of nature, and Nature's God
meaning God, places in the human nature of the buying laws.
So Lincoln said, we don't need the tenth Amendment to
tell us, Uh, if slavery is wrong on one state,
(18:00):
it's wrong in every state. But here's the problem with that.
Lincoln ended up losing that race. Okay, so the Republicans
didn't want him to run two years later, but he ran.
He ran on that same thing, and this time he
made the commitment and he won the American people. It
took him a while to get going, but he finally
made the case, which was a hard case. Went against
the party, went against all the polling. And by the way,
(18:22):
they didn't have polling back then, but they didn't have
popular opinion. And Lincoln warns, people do not have anything
to do with popular sovereignty, which means the same thing
as today. Don't go along with polling. Do what's right.
He did was what's right, in a Gorcigo's standards, one
of America's greatest presidents because he did the right thing.
So I think the thing is in California today, our
party is looking at poles, you know, and we can't
(18:44):
do that. We're bad at communicating what we believe. We're
bad at communicating the moral, the traditional morality, which we
should be able to win on. Trump's starting to show
that he can win on those traditional values. And so
I think the thing is, we always have to do
what's right. We have to be smarter in the way
we clearly communicate those things. If we communicate those principles,
(19:05):
well we can win here in California. But the problem is,
you can't run. You know, you got to be a
You got to be a person of conviction to win
your arguments. You got to communicate him. But you have
to stick to the political principles that made America great.
And again I refer to the Constitution as well as
the Declaration of Indepenance, because that first paragraph talks that were
(19:26):
obligated to follow those divine laws put there by the
uh our free.
Speaker 5 (19:32):
And I hear that theme coming out of you again,
I mean out of the fullness of the heart. The
tongue speaks. So you are a man of faith and conviction,
if I'm getting that correct.
Speaker 4 (19:42):
I try to be a man of faith, certainly not perfect,
you know.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Well, no none of us are.
Speaker 5 (19:46):
I mean, if a man falls down seven times, how
many times will you help him back up? That being
the case, I want to reflect, ladies and gentlemen, on
a time when I was at a convention. I was
during the time when Don Dix was still with us.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
God rest his soul.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
But I got a chance to take you in in
one of the halls. You were doing a speech I
believe it was, and it was very faithful in its
in its roots, and it was a very good speech.
Now I don't have it ready right now, ladies and gentlemen,
but I do have that on video, and I'd like
to insert it into this show at a later date
(20:22):
because this will be airing on a cable station. So
with your permission, I'm going to use that video from
the convention where you were in the hall and did
a speech.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
Is that all right?
Speaker 4 (20:32):
That's okay with me? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (20:34):
Because it was it was really good, ladies and gentlemen.
I was like, is here and this is the good
part about people like Senator Mike Morell. As he was
doing the speech, I'm like, is he a preacher or
what's going on here? Because I'm I'm feeling something. I'm
feeling moved and I it was a good speech, sir.
And what I'm what I'm getting from you is this
(20:57):
It's not one of those one sided things when it
comes to you, I believe you're you're in the mode
of Abraham Lincoln. I believe that the first paragraph of
the Constitution, it addresses you, and you respond to that
all men are created equal, because whenever I've seen you,
you've always treated all men equally.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
We're equal with different talents.
Speaker 5 (21:22):
Equal with different talents. Right, So it's like we start
off at the same point, but the results the ending
may not always be the same. Because isn't that the
difference between equality and what is the.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
What is the left call it equity?
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Equity? Thank you, sir.
Speaker 5 (21:39):
The difference between equality and equity is we all start
off the same, but we may not finish the same.
And I don't see how anybody could be out of
agreement with that. Segueing into that, we have some problems
here in the state of California. Our coastline was absolutely decimated.
We lost so much, and as President Trump is quick
(22:02):
to do whenever there's an issue of national interest, President
Trump seems to be laser focused on whether the negative
impact was by nature, by natural causes, or what have you,
or the dreaded d E. I I know that's a
I know that's a buzzword or lightning rod in the
(22:25):
world right now.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
But we're gonna touch on the idea.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
Of de I and where where you are with regards
to that. Speaking about our governor and the mayor Bass
of Los Angeles and the possibility of de I plan
a role on the West coast, what are your thoughts
about that, sir?
Speaker 4 (22:45):
Well, first of all, de I, Yeah, it's it's infiltrating
itself into our government. As you know, people are questioning, uh,
the EI picks for our air traffic control and and
that sort of thing. On the fires, you know, the
(23:08):
fire department having on like one hundred or two hundred
trucks out of commission, not having the the reservoirs full.
I don't know, you know who they were or what
they were. But if DDEI had any any hand in that,
it kind of goes along with why you don't want
(23:30):
to go, uh that path, because we should base things
based on merit. You know, I if I go to
a doctor or an airplane pilot, I want the best.
I want it based on merit. I don't want based well,
you know, we want to give this person a chance
because they're this or they're that. They you know, they
didn't grow up with the things that you know, what
(23:50):
I had or something like that. And so you know,
we just want the best. We want the best for
lawn portforcement went the best in the fire department. We
want the best in politics. I don't think anybody should
get free. Ride America is about pulling your self up
by the brute straps. And you know, I have people go,
you know you had a you know, easy life. Hey,
I did have an easy life, but my parents weren't wealthy.
(24:12):
I slept on mattresses, I didn't have a bed, and
I used to put cardboard in my shoes on rainy days.
You know, So you know God, you know, if you go,
if you go, we talk about faith. You go to
a book of Proverbs and there's over a hundred scriptures
on there. How to make money and be prosperous. And
it says he who works with the diligent hand will
prosper in a multitude of council there's there's victory. It
(24:35):
doesn't say provided you know you're this color of that color.
It just says hard work, speaking counsel, and you know,
you pray, and then you know you you also have
to have knowledge and learn your skills. A man who's
skilled in his craft will stand before men are renowned.
So you want to be skilled, and whatever you go to,
you want to work hard. Diligent hand will prosper. And
(24:56):
so because there's a lot of people in this country
who are prospering, I'm always amazed. I remember when I
first met some of these Vietnamese refugees. They actually came
to my real estate office back in the day, and
they wanted to buy homes right, and so, you know,
they they were interesting. They didn't look like us, they
didn't talk like us. But I tell you, I remember
(25:18):
talking to one gentleman. He was a Christian man and
he was becoming very successful in his own printing business.
And his name was Yip d i Ep he pronounced
at ypto. And I said, why are you making money?
And he said, in Vietnam, I had three jobs. I
worked sixteen hours a day, six seven days a week,
(25:42):
and I could just barely make enough money for the
you know, for food. And then he says this, He says,
I only have to work in easy ten hours a day,
six days a week, and I'm making all kinds of
money in America. And he didn't have the language down,
and back then Vietnamese people were not received well because
their culture was different, right, But I love what he said.
(26:03):
I only have to work in easy ten hours a day,
six days a week, but compared to where he had
came from, I mean six days a week was easy,
and he was prospering. And I told Jony, my wife
is probably a week or two ago. I wonder whatever
happened to him. I bet you he ended up making
a ton of money and I was.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Doing really well.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
And I want to capitalize on something you said, because
you brought out the scripture that a man you know
that learns his craft and he steady with his hand,
and then you use the phrase lift yourself up by
your bootstraps. Well, Senator Mike Monroel, I come from a
community where because I was born and raised on the
South Side of Chicago, as most know. As a matter
(26:43):
of fact, watch this. I'm gonna save that for the
next part of the show. We got to take a
station break, ladies and gentlemen. But I want to expand
on what Senator Mike Monroel said, because there's so much
wisdom coming out of him right now that I just
want to put a top over it. So Senator Monroell,
we're going to take a break. I still have you
here outstanding. We'll be right back after these messages, Ladies
(27:04):
and gentlemen, go nowhere.
Speaker 7 (27:16):
When I see a new broadcast from the south Side Unicorn,
I can't wait to listen to it.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
You just never know what he's gonna say.
Speaker 5 (27:28):
Hey, it's Ken White, host of the south Side Unicorn Show,
and we are back. And this is just getting more
interesting every word that comes from Senator Mike Morrell. I'm
learning something. I know you're learning something. You're getting a
chance to look at a candidate in a natural setting.
Just the conversation. And in the last segment, which if
you missed it, you need to go back and listen
(27:48):
to it because of what I'm about to say. When
we left from the last segment, Senator Mike Morrell used
the statement lift yourself up by your bootstraps. That's an
anathema to some people. Some people want to take that
very phrase as an affront. And I had to struggle
with it myself because I've had people that I know
(28:10):
ad my own respect and their answer back to what
Senator Mike Morrell said would be how can I lift
myself up by my bootstraps and I don't even have boots.
Now that's profound. That's one heck of a pushback to
a really good statement.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
So I had to think.
Speaker 5 (28:28):
About it from my experience in life, my growing up,
my growing up on the South Side of Chicago, where
people didn't have boots, but also with the fact that
I did learn a craft and a skill, and I
offered that craft and skill to people and they hired me,
and I made money and was able to do things
for my family and myself. So I have to mix
(28:49):
the two of those worlds together. And here's my answer
to that. Ladies and gentlemen, when you hear someone like
Senator Mike Morrell say the phrase lift yourself up by
your bootstraps, that's not entirely what that means.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Doesn't mean you got to have a pair of boots.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
It means that when the Lord breathes life into you
that morning or that night, you get up and you
do and you get a skill, you educate yourself, you
become proficient at something, and then you offer it to
the world. You don't need boots for that. Because he
just said he met a Vietnamese gentleman who said all
I have to do is work a meager ten hours
(29:28):
a day. That's a mouthful. So let's disabuse ourselves of
the political quickness of shutting that statement down of lift
yourself up by your bootstraps. Senator Mike Morrell, thank you
for being able to say that and have that as
your idea, because I believe probably in your life you've
helped people that you've seen lifting themselves up by their bootsteps.
(29:51):
I bet you got a story that you could share.
What it's some person you've helped.
Speaker 4 (29:56):
Well, yeah, I think you know. I used to teach
these classes in church. And one thing I know, God's
fork he's not against us. He doesn't look at race, color,
or creed, right, And so when he writes those things
in the scripture about he who works with the diligent
hand will prosper, and you you kind of said this, uh,
and the man who's skilled in his craft will stand
(30:17):
before kings, right, And so you've got it. You've got
to work hard, you've got to get skilled in your craft.
And in life, there's a lot of opportunities that people
want to give a hard working person. And so I
have had a few people that that over my life.
Who has that I've helped where they came back to
me years later and I told him, you know, there's
(30:39):
thirty one days in a month typically, and there's thirty
one chapters of Proverbs, which is the wisdom of God.
He tells those thirty one chapters encompasses here's what a
full looks like, and here's what a wide person looks,
a wise person looks like. And it talks about marriage,
how to have successful kids if you can. But again,
it talks a lot about money because you know, God,
(30:59):
I'm I'm not a health and wealth sort of guy,
but God, you know, wants us to prosper if we
can handle that prosperity, right, not everybody can. And you
know your us men are so.
Speaker 5 (31:08):
Sex can destroy you easier than hard times. I'm a
witness to that one.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (31:15):
Well, you know, a friend of mine once told me
us men are made up of two percent water, ninety
eight percent ego on pride, you know, and so we
have to manage that, you know, because I've seen friends
of Mike make a lot of money and then God
has to humble them. But yeah, I have been fortunate
to be able to share some of those principles from Proverbs,
teach them in churches and people have gotten back to
me over the years and have thanked me for those things,
(31:37):
which which that you know, that's one of the things
that drives me is trying to just share how people
can have a better life based on you know, integrating
faith into it, but also practical ways to do that.
So thank you for sharing it. You're You've been very
gracious and tying with your words to me today. Thank
you so much.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Well, we got a little bit of a surprise for
you too, Connie. Agnes given me with us right now.
She is Can we get her in? Can we bring
her in? Sure? Thank you, Thank you, Hony.
Speaker 5 (32:13):
Yes, she's the producer. She makes the things happen, makes
it all smooth. But Agnes Giveny just showed up and
we're going to bring her on real quickly.
Speaker 4 (32:20):
H And every good man is a great woman, by
the way, so fortunate to have her. Fortunate they have her.
Thank you for a training words. I mean him too, Agnes.
Speaker 5 (32:32):
Are you there, I am here, I'm standing. Thank you
for coming on, ladies and gentlemen. This is Agnes Gibney,
one of President Trump's angel moms. And she knew that
I would be interviewing Senator Mike Morel today and just
wanted to step in for a minute and share something
with the senator.
Speaker 7 (32:51):
Yes, hi, everyone, I just wanted to ask everyone if
you care about the Republican Party. If you do, I
don't like the way the Republican Party, the direction it's
going up to now, you have to vote for Mike Morrell.
He is a voice of reason, a man with incredible
integrity and character, a retired state senator, incredible family man,
(33:18):
pro life. We need someone like Mike Morrell in office
if we have a chance to win, if we want
change in the California GOP, we have to take these
people out. They have been in office until now and
we need new change. We need new people to bring
new ideas, a new vision and hope for the Republican Party.
(33:42):
So please vote for Mike Morrell.
Speaker 4 (33:46):
I like her words.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
Thank you good words.
Speaker 4 (33:49):
Right yeah, And by the way, if they want to
go to my website, let me give that real quick
like it's thanks Thagan so much. I appreciate that. It's
Senator Mike Morrell and Morrell spelled m O r r
e l L. And it's the number four chair dot com.
Let me repeat that, Senator Mike Morell, number four chair
(34:11):
dot com. And there is a way if you want
to contribute to my campaign, that would be grateful because
the other side has more money, more power. All I
have is God in my heart and good people like
Agnes helping me and that's I think we're gonna win.
But if you were so inclined to send some contributions,
that would be better and hopefully it can push across
(34:34):
the line. So thank you guys so much. And again, Agnes,
thanks for your kind words.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
I appreciate that outstanding.
Speaker 5 (34:41):
Yeah, and we're gonna go ahead and post your site
up on the uh Chiron when the show is actually
polished and put out for air production. Agnes Gibbini is
a is an absolute patriot, and I guess we can
count that as an endorsement of Senator Mike Morrell. So
with that, I want to talk about the upcoming impending
(35:03):
election for the California GOP. I'm going to ask you
questions that my audience would want to know, and I'm
going to ask you questions for myself. I need a
little bit of edification from you, sir.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
You got it.
Speaker 5 (35:15):
When is this historic election going to take place?
Speaker 4 (35:20):
Well, the convention is March fourteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth and
Sacramento at Ohiott and the election takes place Sunday morning,
is sixteenth.
Speaker 5 (35:30):
On Sunday morning the sixteenth, that's after the prayer breakfast, right, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (35:35):
So any of your people that would like to keep
that in prayer the sixteenth, I would appreciate that for
your listeners.
Speaker 5 (35:43):
I never stopped praying. Now, that's you know, upon which
I want to talk about. Agnes doesn't pull any punches.
She'll say what's on her mind. She's saying that the
very soul of the California Republican Party is hanging in
the balance between the two candidates.
Speaker 2 (36:02):
Now go ahead.
Speaker 4 (36:03):
I'm sorry that's a pretty bold statement, but I get
the feeling maybe it is because Agnes isn't the first
person who's expressed that to me. I have had. I
don't think I'm exaggerating. If I said I had over
one hundred people say pretty much the same thing, that
(36:24):
would not be a stretch at all.
Speaker 2 (36:27):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
So you know they're going to be those, especially the
younger Republicans. The younger Republicans, I love them, the young Republicans.
I really loved them. I got pictures with me and
them at the conventions where they just want't give me
hugs and whatnot. And for all you young people that
love me like that, thank you very much. But it
seems to me that the younger people are going to
(36:50):
look at the fact that the president power base is
responsible for President Trump coming to California, that they have
been re out to people. And yet when you look
at the fact that I believe this is their third
term as a team, that doesn't sit very well, does it.
(37:13):
I mean, doesn't the charter say that you should only
have two terms?
Speaker 4 (37:17):
The charter I believe does say two terms, but our
chairman lobby for a third. From my understanding I could
have this may not be accurate. And the board approved
her for a third term.
Speaker 5 (37:32):
If they approved her for a third term and her
vice chair was the same person that's vying for the chair, now,
isn't that termed out?
Speaker 2 (37:42):
Doesn't that term that person out?
Speaker 4 (37:44):
Well, it would term a person out from vice chair.
But they can run for chair though.
Speaker 5 (37:48):
Okay, okay, And is it still going to be two
terms or have they just said you can go for
three after this?
Speaker 4 (37:55):
Is that a new it's still two terms, so.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
That was just an unprecedented move at that time.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
That's what I heard.
Speaker 5 (38:03):
Yes, okay, okay, just to make it you know, clear
to my to my constituents and everybody that's out there
when it comes to you and the other candidate, which
we're going to offer the opportunity for Corn Rankin the
vice chair to come on the South Side Unicorn Show.
The chair is there, no pun intended, and the door
(38:24):
is open. But you're here and we're honored to have you.
And I want to ask you, in your opinion, what
do you see happening to the California c A goop?
Should Miss Rankin become the chairperson?
Speaker 4 (38:41):
Missus Rankin, Please, you're putting me on the spot, buddy.
Speaker 2 (38:44):
Oh yeah, just a little bit.
Speaker 8 (38:47):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (38:48):
Let me answer it this way. Instead of saying what
I think is going to happen if she gets elected,
I'd rather concentrate what I think I'm going to do
different than her if I get along enough. Okay, And
so I think the thing is uh uh, I'm not
going to have any of this DEI uh CRT or
(39:10):
affirmative action stuff. It's going to be based on merit
we're gonna promote those ideas. We're going to promote the
ideas of returning the education back in the court of
the parents. Uh. And I'm not sure where she stands
on that. Another thing too, that I think I bring
to the party is, you know, the fact that I've
got all that business experience, being and then plus being
(39:33):
on different boards, serving ten years in the state legislature
and being on you know, the vice chair of Health
and education, jobs in the economy, finance and banking, all
sorts of things water and power. So I've had quite
an extensive uh experience there, as well as ten years
of dialing for dollars and raising money, something that my
(39:56):
my candidate, my my competition can't claim that they've done.
And I have a track record of winning, man. And
I don't mean to be frightful of this at all.
God's been gracious to me. But I have a track
record of doing well in business, a track record of
doing well meeting on various boards from Arizona Christian to
the bi A as I mentioned before, as well as
being in the Senate and being cherished.
Speaker 5 (40:19):
Well, you know, you got them a lot to say,
and I'm grateful that you are on the show. We're
about to wrap up, but I gotta tell you one
more station break. You're in for a dime, you're in
for a dollar. So I'm hoping you will come back
with me after this station break, and we're gonna touch
on a few things and all of that that acumen,
all that history you were saying, let's lay it on
the people so they can be informed on who they
(40:41):
should vote for when we get to March. We'll be
right back after these messages. Ladies and gentlemen, go nowhere.
Speaker 9 (40:53):
You are listening to the south Side. You're in a
corn show hosted by my friend Ken.
Speaker 7 (41:00):
Right.
Speaker 4 (41:01):
Here'll be back after these messagers.
Speaker 10 (41:09):
Hey, my name is Too Sweet and I'm New York
City's original artist singing for the cause of freedom. I've
spent the last ten years of my life documenting history
through my music.
Speaker 4 (41:23):
It's like a recipe.
Speaker 10 (41:24):
It's plessively bringing out the best of me.
Speaker 2 (41:26):
Your decify testiny to creed you my own.
Speaker 10 (41:28):
Destiny and understandings and learn my listens and let them
be learning. And when I'm in need of a dose
reality to escape the liberal land and make believe, I
tune into the south Side Unicorn where the truth is.
The solid is New York City. Cox Babs, my name
is tooth Sweet, and you're listening to my friend Can't
White on the south Side Unicorn and his part is.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
Just getting started. He it's a boy Can't White.
Speaker 5 (41:59):
And we are back for the final segment of a
very very good interview. I would like to call it
a chat more so than anything. And as we were
leaving the last segment, we were getting as I like
to call it, a vore dyer of Senator Mike Morrell,
and it was impressive. So I just want to continue
on with that and the fact that this position of
(42:22):
c a Goop chair, it is pretty much very similar
to being an assemblyman. It's pretty much very similar to
being a senator or the CEO of a corporation, all
of these things you have in your life experience. And
you were about to say that you were very successful
(42:42):
in your businesses, am I right? So I guess I'm saying,
do continue please?
Speaker 4 (42:46):
Yeah, Well, anyway, I've got those skills that's transferable. And
so I guess the thing that I'll close with is
I just think I have the skills that it takes
that I've learned over the years which are transferable. Doing
this job. You said, you know, this is like being
in the Assembly or the Senate. I think it. Let
me say this, and this is not out of pride
(43:08):
or arrogance or anything. It is more like being a
CEO figuring out how to run a large corporation and
getting things done throughout the state. And I think it's
one of the most important jobs beneath the governor, you know,
if for the Republican Party, because I think we can
take back our state and I have the skills. I
believe that it's going to move us forward. And I
(43:28):
do say this with confidence and not with smugness, but
I believe I can do probably a better job by
moving the ball down the court than perhaps anybody else
who may be running for the seat outstanding.
Speaker 5 (43:43):
And before we wrap up, we have just a few
minutes of Senator. But another person wants to come in
and say something to you. It's both of our good
friend Catherine Dagel.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
Connie, do you.
Speaker 4 (43:53):
See Catherine Dagel, Yes, out of the path.
Speaker 2 (43:58):
He bring her in. Let's let's get her in here. Yeah, Catherine, Catherine,
it's good.
Speaker 9 (44:08):
How are you?
Speaker 8 (44:09):
I'm so sorry, I just got of the shower, so
you're not going to get a picture, but I and
I'm so I will re listen to the video so
I can hear what has transpired.
Speaker 4 (44:23):
But it's really.
Speaker 9 (44:25):
Wonderful to see both of you. I really appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (44:28):
Gars. I remember you twenty years ago. That's good. Yeah,
and you I think you left the state for a while.
Now you're back, so it's good to have you back
in California. We have to Uh, this was God's stayed
at one time. I'm convinced he wants it back, and
you and I and and Ken we have to we
have to make that happen.
Speaker 9 (44:50):
God is looking over us. I know this, and you're here.
I'm here.
Speaker 4 (44:58):
We have some great conservat We.
Speaker 9 (45:00):
Just need someone to gather together as a group and
collectively take back this state.
Speaker 5 (45:09):
Amactly, and I'm so honored at you here, Katherine. I
wanted to ask you a quick question. You left the
state and you came back. I mean you must have
been bumping into people because as you were coming back,
there are so many people leaving.
Speaker 2 (45:21):
So why did you come back?
Speaker 9 (45:24):
Because I have a home here, my child is here,
I have a life here. Unfortunately, Irvine has taken a
turn for the worst. And my daughter just took her today.
That's why I was late. She took her very last exam.
She will hopefully pick up her medical license for a
(45:48):
doctor next the end of the next week. So yeah,
there's a lot going on. Our kids need our help,
and Trump, thank God, is here looking out for children.
We need good parenting, We need great leaders to make
sure that our children and our grandchildren have the wherewithal
(46:14):
to be able to live, breathe, and sustain their lives
moving forward.
Speaker 2 (46:20):
Which is exactly what Senator Mike Morel was saying.
Speaker 5 (46:23):
You get educated, you learn a skill, and exactly you
will progress. And again, congratulations to your family and your
daughter for the hard work. That's not an easy feat
to do. And I want to keep it for a minute, Catherine,
because I want the both of you to speak on this.
The young people we have, the young Republicans, and they
seem to be wanting to support in other directions. But
(46:45):
yet at the same time, when you hear some of
the platform of the other competitors.
Speaker 2 (46:52):
They say we need to draw closer to.
Speaker 5 (46:54):
The Democrat Party in California.
Speaker 2 (46:57):
What say you both?
Speaker 4 (47:00):
Go ahead?
Speaker 2 (47:01):
Catherine, Yeah, you got on unmute.
Speaker 8 (47:06):
I know that my dogs are having a fight on
my floor, and my daughter took off here for a second.
Speaker 9 (47:14):
So bear with me.
Speaker 8 (47:16):
Uh, the parties having problems with and I believe with
the leadership. And I say this because the leadership is faltering.
So our young people, even though there's so many that
really support President Trump and his leadership, somehow somewhere there
(47:41):
are faltering with the parents and the leadership that is,
you know, speaking out now. I have young Republicans here
at you see, I there's a really large group. Huntington
Beach and Newport Beach are very good conservative Republicans. It's
(48:04):
the fault of the leaders, and the leaders are the
should be accountable to new and upcoming new Republicans. You
just got to get in there and talk to them
and make it worth their while. It's just not happening
here because.
Speaker 9 (48:25):
I need to say, the Rhinos uniparty is controlling a
lot of what's going on in this state.
Speaker 4 (48:33):
And like I said, I missed the first.
Speaker 8 (48:35):
Half of the conversation, So I just don't know where
I can move forward and go on because I'm appropriate.
Speaker 2 (48:45):
Let me posit this real quick right there.
Speaker 5 (48:46):
Katherine, Senator Mike Morrell, will you give your contact information
once again so that those on the last half of
the show will know how to reach you.
Speaker 4 (48:55):
Yeah, Senator Mike Morrell, and moreles Phil m r R Ell.
Well the number four chare dot com. Let me repeat that,
Senator Mike Morale, number four chair dot com. Leave a
message there. Yeah, whatever, He's.
Speaker 5 (49:14):
Like, I'm standing and Connie ever ever, being so vigilant,
she put it in the chat. So for those of
you who are watching all around the nation and the world,
you can get that information on the chat section. But now,
Senator Mike Morrel, the same question goes to you are young.
Speaker 2 (49:30):
People, what.
Speaker 5 (49:33):
Do you see if we draw near to the Democrat
Party of California, Because some of the people competing for
the chair believe that we need to establish some type
of relationship with the Democrat Party of the state of California.
Speaker 4 (49:47):
You know, you can compromise your preferences all day long,
but not your principles. And so we were compromised with
anybody when it comes to preferences, but we need to
stick to those constitutional principles, which so far Themocrats have
proven that they're more aligned uh with Marx SoC ietyology
from our education to our business than they are with
(50:08):
our constitutional principles. So I don't have a problem aligning
with people who want to six those those constitutional principles.
But you can't. You can't dance with the devil, right.
And so also this thing about the party wanting to
compromise and and you know, try to be all things
to all people, that's not what the great leaders in
history has done. I mentioned Winston Churchill, before Abraham Lincoln,
(50:31):
and most recently, uh, the other guy, Ronald Reagan.
Speaker 2 (50:35):
Right.
Speaker 4 (50:38):
I love that man. I love that man, and he uh,
you know, they told him a bunch of times State
Department knock off Colin that you're going to start World
War three calling the Soviets the evil Empire. And then
if you saw the movie, they tried to have him,
uh strike that phrase, uh Secretary Gorbuchoff's tear down this wall.
But but you know what, he stuck to his print.
(51:00):
He didn't compromise with his own party, his own party
and advisors, his handlers, as you said earlier the show
were telling them not to say X, Y and Z.
He said it. He knew it was right. And the
whole reason, by the way he did that it has
to do with faith, because he knew communism prevented his
words people his words, communism prevented people from experience and
(51:21):
noise from experiencing the joys of knowing God. And so
he wanted to set those three billion people free. So
there are million, three hundred million, I mean free, so
they could experience joys to knowing God. So that's why
he kept on. And he was a man of principle.
He didn't cave to the Handlers or even his Republicans.
And so we can't do that today. There's principles that
(51:41):
God places in there, and you can read that in
the first two paragraphs of the declaration that they're self
evident truth and there's a path to find those self
evident truth. And I've mentored a lot of college kids,
two to three hundred of them that were my interns,
and they'll come around if you talk to him about that.
We can persuade a lot of people. People are looking
(52:02):
for right answers right now. Our country's prime for this.
You know, Joe Rogan used to be a liberal, right
and then he moved to be the Rio. Yeah, now
if you listen to his program, now, guy's very conservative,
and I think that's where a lot of American people are.
They're looking for answers, and we've got to be there
to give them the right answers, not be us from
our mind, but standing on the shoulders of those people
(52:24):
who possess a superior wisdom than ourselves. And so we
can do that, and we can win if we stick
to that game plan.
Speaker 2 (52:30):
I like it. I like it.
Speaker 5 (52:31):
And so in wrapping this up, and Katherine, thank you
for coming in. You know, I hope that we catch
up one day very soon. Congratulations to your daughter the doctor,
and happy to have you here. And that's one more
good doctor. I'm imagining that if I were sick, because
it's so funny. Senator Mike Morell said that earlier in
the show, when it comes to a pilot or a doctor,
(52:53):
he doesn't care what color or gender they are. He
just wants them to be competent and good because of you,
because of what we believe in, how you raised your children,
so forth and so on, I think we'd be in
pretty good hands with the good doctor that you raised.
Speaker 9 (53:09):
Yes, compassion, compassion and truth and truth.
Speaker 5 (53:15):
So I'm summing up you. You did it, Catherine. You
said compassion and truth. I want to sum this show
up as we go into the close of the show
about Senator Mike Morrell and what I think I've gotten
from the show and I hope others have gotten from
the show. I've gotten God, constitution, commitment, compassion, fairness.
Speaker 2 (53:36):
And leadership.
Speaker 5 (53:37):
These are the things I'm hearing come out of Senator
Mike Morrel.
Speaker 9 (53:39):
What do you think, Catherine, Absolutely, I couldn't agree with
him more.
Speaker 2 (53:44):
Absolutely.
Speaker 5 (53:46):
That sums it up. And so, ladies and gentlemen, you
have just had a slight look at the man, Senator
Mike Morrell, who is running for the California c Ago
P chair. It's a binary thing. You can get with
this or you can get with that. And as he
said throughout the show, it doesn't matter about endorsements, this,
that or the other thing.
Speaker 2 (54:06):
You need to go with the people who.
Speaker 5 (54:07):
Have uncompromising principles, who want to help and can lead.
Having said that, I'll give the last one minute to you,
Senator Mike Morrell, because we have to go.
Speaker 4 (54:18):
Well, Connie, all you three, Kathy, thanks so much for
having me on. I'm honored to be here. You guys
were kind with your words and matter of fact, your
words having our guests on here today were very encouraging
to me. And it's people like that that allows me
to keep going and gives me strength mentally, spiritually, physically, emotionally.
(54:41):
So thank you, and I just be honored if folks
will go to my website check it out, prayer support
and any other support you can learn, and I would
be honored. And I hope that I end up leading
this state and I pray that opportunity, the winds would
flow our way and with the help of God, we
can in California around back to the Golden State again.
(55:03):
At one time, this was his state with twenty one missions.
Campus Crusade founded here, focus on the family, this is
the three revivals. This was his state at one time.
I'm convinced he wants it back, but it's up to
us for the people to do that. So with that,
thank you for having me on your show.
Speaker 5 (55:20):
I am honored, I'm standing we are equally as honored, sir.
And in closing, I say, hey, listen to me. There's
no place I'd rather be. There's nothing more I'd rather
do than being right here doing this show for you.
I'm Ken White hosted the South side Unicorn Show and
we are out.
Speaker 4 (55:39):
Thanks Ken Well, thank you
