Speaker 2 (00:21):
Enjoy Welcome to Tuesday, April the eighth of out lawd
twenty twenty five on the air and streaming live on
your iHeartRadio app. Supreme Court has ruled that President Trump
can use the seventeen ninety eight law to deport some
migrants who are suspected of being Venezuelan gang members. For
the first time in nearly two decades, the Gators are
national champions. And all this talk about trade wars, what
(00:42):
about the real wars? You know, the Ukraine Russian peace
talks or Hamas or what about the one on one
nuke talks with Iran. James Carafano, our lieutenant colonel has
been away at war for a long time.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Not a single letter.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
I m my aad, not a single from you all
while you were gone.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Welcome back. It sucked without you.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
It's it's nice to be back.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
I'm leaving tomorrow, so I want your frequent fire I
don't believe in reincarnation, but in another life, I'd like
to come back as your frequent flyer.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Myers miles they must be.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
I went to Athens and I was only there for
a day, and the crew.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
When I was coming back, it was the same crew
that flew me out I was. I got on the
plane and they looked at me like they go, wait
on this, like yesterday.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Yeah, so do we know what your what was your
total miles last year?
Speaker 4 (01:35):
I have I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Hey, well, you know you could give me a few
at least something.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
No, you said Russia and.
Speaker 5 (01:44):
Iran and and you know, this is one of the
truest truisms of Donald Trump, with the exception of terrorists, right,
Trump offers everybody an off ramp. It's it's just axiomatic
with him. That is like, we don't have to do this.
If you want to take the off ramp and take
a deal, you know, we don't have to continue to
(02:08):
butt heads with each other. But what people don't understand
about Trump is Trump likes deals, but he doesn't like
bad deals. My friend, I was just talking with a
guy from the State Department yesterday who is the point
guy in country for Trump's visit to when Kim we
met with the leader of North Korea, and Trump wanted
(02:29):
to do a deal with North Korea, but in the end,
North Korea would never agree to the one thing that
Trump insisted on, which is denuclearization, and so Trump walked away.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
And well, it's page seventy two of his book, you know.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
I mean, that's kind of what's happening with Europe right now.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
But you know, with Afghanistan, he wanted to do a
deal with the talent then, but he never cut a
deal because the Taliban would not agree to his terms.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
And you know, Biden just came in as selle do
whatever you want.
Speaker 5 (02:57):
But I I don't think the Iran talks are going
anywhere because I absolutely guarantee you that the bottom line
of the Iran hawks the United States will see, you
must give up your nuclear weapons program. And I just
don't see the regime doing that.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Yeah, because well, and it's not helping that Donald Trump
is presumably gone in three years, and they'll roll the
dice that they'll face someone else who won't have the
art of the deal. Before we move on to Iran specifically,
because you set that up made a great point. He
will not make a bad deal, and Iran will not
make a fair deal. So don't expect this to go anywhere.
(03:36):
I get that we were I mean, we've been doing
this together. We tried to figure this out over breakfast
and I couldn't remember, but I think it's close to
fifteen years, isn't it?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Or more?
Speaker 2 (03:48):
And you know, one of the things I would I would,
looking back say the most striking was it pleasantly shocked
us the commander in chief that Donald Trump was and
now is again his instincts are remarkably good. How much
of that comes from the art of the deal and
(04:09):
not appeasing, not making bad deals? Or does he just
he surrounds himself with great advisor and listen, what made
him so good at foreign policy?
Speaker 5 (04:18):
Well, I think there's two things. I do think that
his experience in New York as a real estate guy
and having to make difficult decisions and deals and suffering
setbacks and learning from them.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Is a big part of shaping him.
Speaker 5 (04:34):
But I also remind people that Trump came of age
in the nineteen eighties, and in the nineteen eighties.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
Ronald Reagan was president, and I think in.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
Many ways, Reagan's approach to foreign policy, putting American in
his first piece restrength, I think that had a deep
and profound influence on a rising Donald Trump, who saw
in Reagan many of the same kind of commitment to
(05:05):
goals and excellence that he saw in himself. So I
do think there was this kind of combination of these
two things together that made the Donald Trump that we know.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
And what I remind people is this is not the
Donald Trump of twenty seventeen.
Speaker 5 (05:18):
This is a man who is president for four years,
who's been building a team to be president for four years,
who has his own unique and way, and he says
something really important, which is he's a one term president.
He is impatient to do the things that are vital
for this country, ensuring our security, rebuilding growth in this country.
(05:42):
And so sometimes he's a little raw, and I think
people find a bit brutal, but that's because he's.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
A man on a mission and he knows the clock
is ticking.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Lieutenant GIRONL. James Tarafinal back temporarily, he'll be back on
the road. We're kind of talking about all things Donald Trum.
He's working about the same twenty two hours a day
that he did in the first term, but it's a
lot more laser focused, and I think he's a lot wiser.
There is something about four years off to think about
and learn some lessons and then apply all your life lessons.
(06:14):
You brought up something very interesting. He brings up Washington
and Abraham Lincoln a lot. He never really brings up
Reagan and Kennedy, but my guess is those are the
two presidents that influenced him. Just you know, it's kind
of like when we talk about your favorite bullseye music,
I guarantee it's from somewhere around fourteen years old, and
(06:35):
so when you were fourteen, my guess is early mid
sixties is your favorite genre of music. Mine is mid
to late seventies because that's when I was fourteen. If
you look at when Kennedy was president, when Reagan was president,
two very influential slices of Donald Trump's life. But he
never brings it up. But that's what I suspect. How
(06:56):
about you, Reagan? For sure, I know you said.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
That interesting about Kennedy.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
I mean Trump is still older than I am. And
you know, the Kennedy we remember is the one that
went through the Bay of Pigs, the Cuban missile crisis,
uh and other things and uh. And this is the
Kennedy of the PT one O nine. And when we
were kids, we didn't know, you know, all the backstory
(07:23):
and the girlfriends and everything else and the politics of
all that. So what we saw in Kennedy was a
typical man of the greatest generation, resolve, commitment, patriotism, and
level country.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Let's be honest, no question, if Kennedy were alive.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
Today, a Trump Republican absolutely, we just actually actually just distinguished.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Yeah, he'd he'd he'd be kennedysm not Trump is all right,
So let's do these one at a time. Where do
we stand with the Ukraine Russian peace talks? And how
important is this to Trump's legacy?
Speaker 5 (08:01):
Well, it's important for American interests and important for the
civility in the future of Europe and a more peaceful world.
And where we are is Vladimir Putin has significantly annoyed
Donald Trump.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
And there's so there's three scenarios.
Speaker 5 (08:21):
One is put needs a ceasefire as much as the
Ukrainians do. Both of them I think are strategic overreach.
They really can't achieve their goals, so a pause for
both sides would look at a pause as a real opportunity.
One is Putin just takes a deal. He does what
Russians always do, which is they want to see what
(08:42):
they can get something for nothing, and then once they
realize this is all they're going to get if they
need a deal, they cut a deal. So one is
who just wakes up one day and says, let's get
a deal. You know, it could happen this month, could
happen tomorrow. Scenario two is shot. And then there's there's two,
like there's two possible serious One is Trump gets sports
is I'm not taking my ballic at home, yourps around
(09:04):
your own That I think is least likely because he
creates a lot of risk for Trump. The other is
Putin really, I mean, Trump really puts the screws on Puttin.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
And so I'm banking on one or three.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Yeah, and it's looking more and more like three every day.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
That whole balance of can this be a march towards,
as you say, an exit for Putin and an end
of this, or is this going to start marching towards
an escalation towards World War. I don't want to see
Donald Trump gets so annoyed that, you know, but I
do think he'll put the screws to him in terms
of sanctions and other things. And then I think, you know,
(09:46):
the mineral deal, if it follows through and goes through,
we'll have general interest on the ground, so that will
force him to defend that more. I don't think there's
any other Putin's got to take one now.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Or he's never going to get a better chance. It's
going to get only uglier for him.
Speaker 5 (10:02):
I think escalations the least likely scenario, because look, you
can't win the warrior fighting, you know, you don't start
new ones.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Only only Hitler did that.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
What are we doing, uh in the Middle East? I mean,
I presume yesterday in addition to talking about tariffs, him
and BB talked about Hamas and the Gaza.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
Well, I mean, here's what I believe the Iranians will do,
which is what they always do, is because in the end,
it's the preservation of the regime and the revolution that's
most important. Uh, they will they will go quiet and
knuckle down. So, uh, they won't kind of deal with
Trump because that I don't see how they can do that.
(10:46):
But on the other hand, they get very risk averse,
and so I think they just pull in their claws,
try to wait Trump out, wait for the future they got.
They don't got many cards to play. Remember the price
of oil and Russia just went down to fifty dollars
a barrow to go down lower.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
So they're out of money. The Iranians are out of money,
but the.
Speaker 5 (11:09):
Slaughtered don't forget that right to turn and focus on
domestic repression, you know, and you know, live to fight
another day. And then you know, there's all this internal
squabbling about the future of the regime.
Speaker 4 (11:20):
You know what happens after I told and everything. So
that would be my guest. So I wouldn't expect a
big deal with the Iranians.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
But what about the remainder of the hostage is being
released by Hamas? How close are we to that that?
Speaker 5 (11:31):
I don't know, you know, Well, that's the thing is,
I don't know how many living hostages there are.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
I remember we talked about this long ago.
Speaker 5 (11:39):
I mean I I talked to Israeli a long time ago,
and they thought the living number was under thirty. We've
I don't think we've actually I think we've seen about
that many come out since that conversation that I had
with them, So I'm not sure how.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
Many if there's any, you know, living hostages.
Speaker 5 (12:00):
Left and again, from a larger standpoint, it's it's not
really about the hostage, it's about the future of Gaza.
And I think, well, we are, you know, the five
steps of grief, right, So we're at the step where
Trump is, and I think that Yahoo have made it
very clear that we're not going back to the battle
days of you know, we're going to flood the thing
(12:20):
with Really, if we're going to send under that's just
not going to happen. So I think we've reached the
stage where people realize the status quo.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
We're not returning to a status quo. That's I think
about all I know at this point.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Wonderful, wonderful to have you back. You're not going to
disappear again for three four weeks? Are you just what
I'm going to say?
Speaker 5 (12:39):
I am going to I am going to be in
another part of the world next week. But you know,
the time zones are different enough, we probably ought to
be able to talk. So as long as it's not
on a plane. You know, one of these days are
going to get the plane thing figured out.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Yes, I'll have it.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
It'll be like the old days where I have the
pilot patch it through Lieutenant James Carafano. Back to serve
with honors. So good to talk to you, sir. We'll
talk again next week from wherever you are.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
You got it. It's your morning show with Michael del Chano.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
You're just waking up. Welcome to Tuesday, April the eighth.
The Florida Gators are national champions. The market didn't crash,
and here are your top five stories of the day.
President Trump says he plans to raise tariffs on China
by another fifty percent if they don't get rid of
their retaliatory tariffs listen.
Speaker 6 (13:30):
In a post on truth Social Trump said a deadline
of Tuesday we're China to undo its thirty four percent
duties that were put in place to the reciprocal tariffs
announced last.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Week by the White House.
Speaker 6 (13:40):
Trump said he will cancel any plan to talks with
China if they don't comply.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
The President notes talks with other countries are starting immediately.
Speaker 6 (13:48):
I'm rc nephew, Florida leaves it by two, you sayn't
gonna go, You say give it up, cror.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Six seconds seconds? Sure he can't touch it.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Share. I mean, if you, if you lived like I did,
and you just you know, couldn't hold on any longer,
I believe I should turn in my man card. It
was white lotus that kept me up till ten pm
the previous night, and then last night it just looked
(14:21):
like there was no overcoming Houston's defense.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
And I think, you know, with like a.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Minute left, they Gators had only led the game by
seventeen seconds. I mean, it was just dominated by Houston
through up and then an up and down ends it.
I mean, the look on Calvin Sampson's face, they just
can't get that big win. But Florida back on top.
It's been nearly two decades since they went back to
back in two thousand and six. In two thousand and seven,
Will Richard with eighteen points led the Gators to the
(14:47):
national championship sixty five sixty three.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
Last night.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Meanwhile, President Trump, sometimes I wonder if he does this
just so the left takes the bait and talks dictator.
He's reportedly planning a military parade for his own birthday
in our.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Nation's capital.
Speaker 7 (15:04):
For the streets of the nation's capital on June fourteenth,
the president's seventy ninth birthday and the Army's two hundred
and fiftieth anniversary. The parade will be four miles long,
going from the Pentagon to the White House. Trump had
attempted to plan a military parade during his first term
in twenty eighteen that it was called off after the
price tag was quoted at ninety two million dollars.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Final mesa Taylor all right. In sports other than the
National Championship. In the NBA, the Kings beat the Pistons
one twenty seven, one seventeen on the ice. The Blues
loss of the Jets three to one, and that snapped
a seven or twelve what I keep saying seven twelve
game winning streak for the Saint Louis Blues. They were
out of the playoff picture, but after twenty four straight
points there in the thick of the playoff and playing
(15:45):
some of their best hockey. So tough loss last night,
but pretty remarkable to win twelve in a row, Lightning
easy over the Rangers five to one, Ducks are three
two over the Oilers, and the Kings lost two to
one to the crack. In baseball, Tigers beat the Yankees
six to two, Cardinals fell eight to four to Pitch.
Dodgers lost six to forty the Nats. That's two in
a row for the Dodgers and the Padreys over the
A's and Sacramento.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
Hey, I'm Olympic gold medalist Scott Hamilton, and my morning
show is your morning show with Michael del Jorno.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Hi, I'm Michael del Jorno and your morning show can
be heard live as it's happening five to eight am
Central at six to nine Eastern on great stations like
six point twenty WJDX and Jackson, Mississippi, or Akron's News
Talk six forty WHLO and Akron Ohio and News Radio
five seventy WDAK and Columbus, Georgia. Love to be a
part of your morning routine. But we're glad you're here now.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Enjoyed the podcast on the Aaron streaming live on your
iHeartRadio app. A lot of ways for you to make
your voice heard. You can email Michael d at iHeartMedia
dot com.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
I got one.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
This one's from Rick who writes on Black Monday. The
market crashed, and as it did, foolish people sold in panic.
The next few days, the mar mart was a little rocky,
but the savvy investors scooped up the bargains.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
What did I say yesterday? In the height of all this?
Speaker 2 (17:06):
I said, if I had a million dollars and I don't,
I'd take eight hundred thousand and I would put it
in the market. And boy would that pay off today
because the futures are up almost a thousand. When I said,
what would I do with the other two hundred thousand,
I would put it on the Gators minus one. But
Bruto Mars wasn't listening. While it took two years to
(17:27):
fully recover, the gain in two years was twenty one percent,
and the gain in just a week to those who
went bargain hunting was over ten percent. I'm no genius,
but I can learn from history, and I think quite
a few others did I bought stocks yesterday?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
The market will rebound quickly. The art of the deal
brings trade back to reality with tariffs being dropped by
all Rick, Yeah, well, nothing.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Went the narrative way. You know, I did a pretty
simple post. The market closed. They were predicting in the
futures the market would lose four percent. It lost one
point six I think, or whatever it was. Only the
Dow was down three forty nine, the Nasdaq was actually
up fifteen, and the SMP was basically flat, down eleven bucks.
And now the futures showed up one thousand, So what
(18:14):
was the narrative? Market's going to follow another four percent
or worse. They may have to do the mandatory pauses.
This is a crash in the market. It's a self induced,
biggest ignorant mistake ever. And then the reality Dow down
three forty nine, Nasdaq actually up in seventy. Nations lined
up Japan to be first in line to renegotiate Europe
floating a zero for zero tariff resolution, and just like that,
(18:38):
futures are through the roof. So another narrative bites the
dust and dies of reality. Do you keep those emails coming?
Michael Didiheartmedia dot com. Don't forget the talk back button
on your iHeartRadio app. Do you know it was on
this day in history? Seems like yesterday and I don't
know what it was. I think we were watching the
White Sox and at that time, Harry Carey was the
(19:00):
White Sox announcer with Jimmy pearsall so Harry inebriated Jimmy
Pearsall you know the man who climbed the backstop for
the Red Sox yelling are you proud of me?
Speaker 4 (19:11):
Id? Dad?
Speaker 3 (19:13):
All right?
Speaker 2 (19:13):
But they were switching to Atlanta Fulton County Stadium every
time Henry Aaron was up. It is lost on history.
I can tell you. As a ten year old child,
I was not aware that Henry Aaron was receiving death
threats for potentially breaking Baby Bruce home run record. All
I can tell you is I had a huge Henry
(19:35):
Aern poster in my bedroom. He was bigger than life.
I didn't see color. I saw one of my heroes.
And so I'm watching the White Sox. I'm laying on
a shag rug watching a console TV. And they switched
to Atlanta Fulton County. Some may accuse al downing of
the Dodgers of grooving one, but boy and Henry Aaron
take it out of the park. Seven point fifteen breaking
(19:58):
Baby Bruce record happened. On this date, April eighth, nineteen
seventy four. In some ways it feels like yesterday. Sounds
of the day. How do we get them? Well, we start,
That's how we get them all.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
There alright, our raight.
Speaker 9 (20:13):
This is CNN, this is the news, and that's why
more people are watching the cartoon networks.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Lungebobbery runs right now. I'm big a democratic. This is
like a goldstong in a past I said, of a
government that just minds its own damn business.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
He's revealing, often entertaining. This is your Sounds of the day.
The Dodgers are in the White House, Boy Donald Trump
at a classic line.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Listen, congratulations, Brian and others.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
We have a couple of senators here. I just don't
particularly like them. Was that one't introd.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Over the course of this amazing season the members of
this team.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
How he turned from the team.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
I have no idea what he whispered to the dog
when he turned around and put his hand over his mouth.
But they started cracking up. They were quite honored each ye.
Row in the Oval office I think was one of
the prize moments. I mean, the president just kept no
what's his name? When the pitches in and hits home runs.
(21:18):
Otani Otani, I said, each Roe. But the President is
giving them all kinds of stuff, just adoring him. And
then he said, hey, take a picture by the Declaration
of Independence. It really was an amazing day at the
White House for the Los Angeles Dodgers, who then went
to the stadium and lost to the Nets. After that,
all right, BB Net and Yahoo. I don't know if
there were hostage talks. I don't know if there were
(21:38):
Middle East war talks, but there was definitely tariff talks.
And here's what bb had to say to the press
from the White House.
Speaker 5 (21:45):
I said to the President of quickly, we will eliminate
the trade deficit with the United States.
Speaker 3 (21:52):
We intend to do it very quickly.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
We think it's the right thing to do.
Speaker 5 (21:56):
And we're going to also eliminate trade areas, a variety
of trade barriers that have been put up unnecessarily. And
I think this will conserve as a model for many
countries who ought to do the.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Same, lowering tariffs, removing trade barriers, and being an example
for other countries. How many other countries are lined up
about seventy according to the White House, And who's in
the front of the line. Well, our Treasury secretary joined
Fox Business with this announcement.
Speaker 9 (22:27):
Larry, I can tell you that there are fifty sixty,
maybe almost seventy countries now whoever approached us. So it's
going to be a busy April May, maybe in the June.
And Japan is a very important military ally, they're very
important economic ally, and the US has a lot of
(22:48):
history with them, So I would expect that Japan's going
to get priority just because they came forward very quickly.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
But it's going to be very busy.
Speaker 9 (23:00):
And President Trump again gave himself maximum negotiating leverage, and
just when he achieved a maximum leverage, he's willing to
start talking.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
And eu flowate.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
It's the idea, but zero for zero terraff resolution to
remove industrial fees on US goods. They're ready for a
good deal again, for those who've read the book The
Art of the Deal, just read it and now over
the next couple of months with the ultimate leverage repage
seventy two, because he's not going to take their first offer.
(23:36):
You know, we were talking earlier with James Carafano.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
And we were wondering, you.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Know, Donald Trump talks a lot about George Washington, a
lot about Abraham Lincoln, but I suspect that John F.
Kennedy and Ronald Reagan were the two most influential presidents
in his life on this issue. If you go back
and listen, you can start with Oprah in nineteen eighty.
This is a big issue for Donald Trump. He's been
(24:05):
on the losing end of this as a businessman his
entire life. He's appalled by these bad deals. But what
appalls him most he said at eighty eight, he said
it coming down the escalator, and he's been saying.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
It ever since.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
The bad deals with our friends. You expect it from
enemies Russia, North Korea, China, but not your friends. So
just as twenty four hours ago when you thought the
sky was falling and I was telling you it's not,
(24:41):
and it didn't, I'm telling you today, He's going to
make these deals one at a time, and China's going
to have to come to the table eventually.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
They have way more to lose.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
And if they're the only pain that we have to feel,
primarily chips and phones, you'll be able to afford it.
For all you're going to say from the friends that
are going to come to the table. So Netanya, who's
at the White House. Boom, We're lifting our tariffs. Boom,
We're bringing down these trade barriers, and we're calling the
(25:15):
other countries to do the same, and seventy of them
are in line. That's a big difference from this time yesterday.
We always love any time we get a SoundBite involving
the crew at CNN, and this one is no exception.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
This has to do with the.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
I think the two sounds we played yesterday, one was
Kamala Harris's word salad and the other was from coach Timmy.
But here's the Republican response on CNN.
Speaker 10 (25:48):
First of all, seeing that video Kamala Harris and then
his videos of Tim Walls the last few days, ma'am, did.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
We dodge a bullet? You just loved Scott Jennings a
watch where he goes with it, mercy, these.
Speaker 10 (25:57):
Books coming out, these books coming out, walking into the.
Speaker 3 (26:02):
It can all be told now.
Speaker 10 (26:03):
I mean I sat here all during the campaign and
was assure Joe Biden was fine. Kamala Harris had the
most organic, grassroots driven campaign. The Democrats were unified. We
had a campaign of joy, and.
Speaker 4 (26:15):
Everything was hunky Dory.
Speaker 10 (26:17):
That's what I was told night after night after night,
And now all the books are coming out, and it's
amazing because a lot of the people who were telling.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Those laws are not going to get paid to write
those books. I'm so glad he called him on that.
I don't know it may rival. Covid A is one
of the greatest hoaxes. And the question that still needs
to be answered, and we all deserve an answer to,
is who really was running this country and with auto
sign is any of the things they did legally binding?
(26:46):
But Scott Jennings, these same buffoons that were lying to
you are now getting rich writing books admitting they lied.
You know, if we did have an election with non
politicians like Steve and A, Scott and other, how about
Scott Jennings's to Steve and A get rid of all politicians.
Let those two take it out. I would love Scott
Jennings to be president. All right, Um, well, this one
(27:09):
kind of sets itself up and speaks for itself.
Speaker 11 (27:11):
Listen, if San Francisco is launching a new speed safety
pilot program backed by Democratic California Governor Gavin Newsom, where
how much you pay for a speeding ticket?
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Depends on who you are, and it's all in the
name of equity.
Speaker 11 (27:25):
On its website, the Cydney Transportation Authority goes out of
its way to explain that speed safety cameras will be
dispersed across San Francisco in a quote equitable fashion, but
not everyone will.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
Have to pay the same if they get a ticket.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Get this.
Speaker 11 (27:38):
Low income offenders qualify for steep fine discounts guys up
to half off, and if you're homeless but speeding in
your vehicle, you can get up to eighty percent discount. Jerry,
here's just one of the many problems I have with Larry.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
You just can't make this stuff up.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
They just don't realize wokeness is dead, especially the one
who is the only Democrat trying to sell a pivot
is selling punishment based on income. We did this clip earlier,
but I got to repeat it for those of you
that weren't up yet. This is Elizabeth Warren on with Jensaki.
(28:21):
This is after the market didn't crash. This is after
seventy nations come forward to renegotiate. This is after polling
shows the president's approval rating up with the including the tariffs.
But that doesn't stop them from worshiping each other and
selling fear. Here's former White House spokesperson Political Operative, now
(28:45):
a host talking to the far left, Elizabeth Warren, and
listen to how it just starts dripping in love and
respect as promised.
Speaker 12 (28:55):
Joining me now is Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts. She's
the ranking Democrat on the Senate Banking commit She also
says in the Senate Finance Committee. She knows how to
talk about and explain this is she's better than anyone
I know.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
We're in Professor.
Speaker 12 (29:07):
Warren's class right now, a lot.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Of Professor Warren's class.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
How lucky we are to be on MSNBC with no
viewers in Jen Zaki and in Professor Elizabeth Warren's Native
American class. Here's Cuckoo, fran and Ali trying to keep
a narrative that had already died hours earlier on Inside
with Jens Hockey.
Speaker 12 (29:29):
So let me start there, because I really a lot
of people are just digesting this around the country. And
you know, today Trump said that maybe some of the
tariffs could be permanent. We don't know that to be
the case, but just help us understand what the impact
of that could be.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
So understand it this way.
Speaker 8 (29:45):
Donald Trump has done massive tariffs, and this comes from
someone who actually believes that tariffs are an important tool
in our economic toolbox.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
There are good times to use it.
Speaker 8 (29:56):
We want to onshore supply chain that, we want to protec,
we want to make more pharmaceuticals here, we want to
make more cars here.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
But you do this very carefully, and you do it
in combination.
Speaker 8 (30:08):
Within you're doing domestically, just support so that work actually
gets done. Not Donald Trump comes in and basically starts
the dumbest trade war in the history of this country.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
And then.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Dumbest trade war in the history of this country. A
quote they didn't even stand up to the moment she
made it. The narrative have already died. Let's see how
it holds up in the coming days.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
I really don't know what he said at the end
of this sentence.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
I don't think he knows what he said either.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
It's got to be a big misunderstanding. I'm that is
a topic. How do you like my This is Your
Morning Show with Michael del Chno, don.
Speaker 13 (31:00):
Rice ball as ball As, I'm concerned, Hank Aaron, his
failed call U all the drugs and he's cheated me
to be thrown out of the boat.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
But Henry back in there where he belongs.
Speaker 13 (31:11):
Hi Michael, I too, was sitting in front of a
black and white television when they cut in to show
Hank Aaron hitting his seven hundred and fifteenth home run.
And I had very few things that have survived to
this day from my childhood. But not too long ago,
I was going through some old boxes and I found
the Sports Illustrated that has seven point fifteen and Hank
(31:33):
Aaron holding up the ball. I still have that to
this day, and I cherish it.
Speaker 9 (31:37):
Here's the pitch by Downing swinging, there's a time and
the left of Veil thattball.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
It's got a bad hot a he it's gone.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
On this date, April eighth, nineteen seventy four.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
By the way, our console was colored.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
I had black and white upstairs in my bedroom, which,
by the way, a Browns Bengals game you would squint
to see if you could see little letters on the helmet.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
Otherwise you couldn't tell who was who. It looked like
a scrimmage.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
But we had color downstairs and we were watching the
White Sox, I believe, and they kept cutting to the game,
and Aaron was up and he had one of the
most effortless, beautiful swings you've ever seen and down he
just grooveed it and he just put it right out
of the park. And I remember the time thinking, well,
here comes a fan, you know, to celebrate. And I
(32:25):
remember thinking kind of like, why is Aaron reacting that way?
And you know, after now as an adult, learning all
the death threats he was receiving, he probably had no
idea who this guy was running on the field and
what he had planned to do. But I hope Henry
Aaron died knowing he was a lot of us, even
though we were white.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
He was our hero.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
I had a poster, gosh, it was a quarter of
the size of my wall in my room of Henry Aaron,
and I didn't live anywhere near Atlanta.
Speaker 3 (32:59):
He was a true as a man.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
As a player, he finished with seven hundred and sixty
two or seven hundred and fifty five home runs. Barry
Bond surpassed him with seven sixty two. I used to
always say, and this came up a lot during Mark
McGuire's run at the single season Babe Ruth record, it's
still a round ball and it's still around bat you know.
But I think when it comes to the overall home
(33:23):
run king, I think America still predominantly sees Babe Ruth
and Henry Aeron, and I don't think they acknowledged Barry
Bonds and I think the proven drug use is the
reason why. But on this date, what a moment. That
was kind of an unthinkable We just saw Ov take
Wayne Gretzky's goalscoring record. I never thought i'd see that broken.
I remember ten years old thinking, oh my gosh, you're
(33:45):
taking down Babe Bruce record. What a moment it was
when Henry Aaron became the home run king on this date,
April the eighth, in nineteen seventy four.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
We're all in this together.
Speaker 10 (33:55):

Speaker 2 (00:21):
Enjoy Welcome to Tuesday, April the eighth of out lawd
twenty twenty five on the air and streaming live on
your iHeartRadio app. Supreme Court has ruled that President Trump
can use the seventeen ninety eight law to deport some
migrants who are suspected of being Venezuelan gang members. For
the first time in nearly two decades, the Gators are
national champions. And all this talk about trade wars, what
(00:42):
about the real wars? You know, the Ukraine Russian peace
talks or Hamas or what about the one on one
nuke talks with Iran. James Carafano, our lieutenant colonel has
been away at war for a long time.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Not a single letter.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
I m my aad, not a single from you all
while you were gone.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Welcome back. It sucked without you.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
It's it's nice to be back.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
I'm leaving tomorrow, so I want your frequent fire I
don't believe in reincarnation, but in another life, I'd like
to come back as your frequent flyer.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Myers miles they must be.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
I went to Athens and I was only there for
a day, and the crew.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
When I was coming back, it was the same crew
that flew me out I was. I got on the
plane and they looked at me like they go, wait
on this, like yesterday.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Yeah, so do we know what your what was your
total miles last year?
Speaker 4 (01:35):
I have I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Hey, well, you know you could give me a few
at least something.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
No, you said Russia and.
Speaker 5 (01:44):
Iran and and you know, this is one of the
truest truisms of Donald Trump, with the exception of terrorists, right,
Trump offers everybody an off ramp. It's it's just axiomatic
with him. That is like, we don't have to do this.
If you want to take the off ramp and take
a deal, you know, we don't have to continue to
(02:08):
butt heads with each other. But what people don't understand
about Trump is Trump likes deals, but he doesn't like
bad deals. My friend, I was just talking with a
guy from the State Department yesterday who is the point
guy in country for Trump's visit to when Kim we
met with the leader of North Korea, and Trump wanted
(02:29):
to do a deal with North Korea, but in the end,
North Korea would never agree to the one thing that
Trump insisted on, which is denuclearization, and so Trump walked away.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
And well, it's page seventy two of his book, you know.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
I mean, that's kind of what's happening with Europe right now.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
But you know, with Afghanistan, he wanted to do a
deal with the talent then, but he never cut a
deal because the Taliban would not agree to his terms.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
And you know, Biden just came in as selle do
whatever you want.
Speaker 5 (02:57):
But I I don't think the Iran talks are going
anywhere because I absolutely guarantee you that the bottom line
of the Iran hawks the United States will see, you
must give up your nuclear weapons program. And I just
don't see the regime doing that.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Yeah, because well, and it's not helping that Donald Trump
is presumably gone in three years, and they'll roll the
dice that they'll face someone else who won't have the
art of the deal. Before we move on to Iran specifically,
because you set that up made a great point. He
will not make a bad deal, and Iran will not
make a fair deal. So don't expect this to go anywhere.
(03:36):
I get that we were I mean, we've been doing
this together. We tried to figure this out over breakfast
and I couldn't remember, but I think it's close to
fifteen years, isn't it?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Or more?
Speaker 2 (03:48):
And you know, one of the things I would I would,
looking back say the most striking was it pleasantly shocked
us the commander in chief that Donald Trump was and
now is again his instincts are remarkably good. How much
of that comes from the art of the deal and
(04:09):
not appeasing, not making bad deals? Or does he just
he surrounds himself with great advisor and listen, what made
him so good at foreign policy?
Speaker 5 (04:18):
Well, I think there's two things. I do think that
his experience in New York as a real estate guy
and having to make difficult decisions and deals and suffering
setbacks and learning from them.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Is a big part of shaping him.
Speaker 5 (04:34):
But I also remind people that Trump came of age
in the nineteen eighties, and in the nineteen eighties.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
Ronald Reagan was president, and I think in.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
Many ways, Reagan's approach to foreign policy, putting American in
his first piece restrength, I think that had a deep
and profound influence on a rising Donald Trump, who saw
in Reagan many of the same kind of commitment to
(05:05):
goals and excellence that he saw in himself. So I
do think there was this kind of combination of these
two things together that made the Donald Trump that we know.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
And what I remind people is this is not the
Donald Trump of twenty seventeen.
Speaker 5 (05:18):
This is a man who is president for four years,
who's been building a team to be president for four years,
who has his own unique and way, and he says
something really important, which is he's a one term president.
He is impatient to do the things that are vital
for this country, ensuring our security, rebuilding growth in this country.
(05:42):
And so sometimes he's a little raw, and I think
people find a bit brutal, but that's because he's.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
A man on a mission and he knows the clock
is ticking.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Lieutenant GIRONL. James Tarafinal back temporarily, he'll be back on
the road. We're kind of talking about all things Donald Trum.
He's working about the same twenty two hours a day
that he did in the first term, but it's a
lot more laser focused, and I think he's a lot wiser.
There is something about four years off to think about
and learn some lessons and then apply all your life lessons.
(06:14):
You brought up something very interesting. He brings up Washington
and Abraham Lincoln a lot. He never really brings up
Reagan and Kennedy, but my guess is those are the
two presidents that influenced him. Just you know, it's kind
of like when we talk about your favorite bullseye music,
I guarantee it's from somewhere around fourteen years old, and
(06:35):
so when you were fourteen, my guess is early mid
sixties is your favorite genre of music. Mine is mid
to late seventies because that's when I was fourteen. If
you look at when Kennedy was president, when Reagan was president,
two very influential slices of Donald Trump's life. But he
never brings it up. But that's what I suspect. How
(06:56):
about you, Reagan? For sure, I know you said.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
That interesting about Kennedy.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
I mean Trump is still older than I am. And
you know, the Kennedy we remember is the one that
went through the Bay of Pigs, the Cuban missile crisis,
uh and other things and uh. And this is the
Kennedy of the PT one O nine. And when we
were kids, we didn't know, you know, all the backstory
(07:23):
and the girlfriends and everything else and the politics of
all that. So what we saw in Kennedy was a
typical man of the greatest generation, resolve, commitment, patriotism, and
level country.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Let's be honest, no question, if Kennedy were alive.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
Today, a Trump Republican absolutely, we just actually actually just distinguished.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Yeah, he'd he'd he'd be kennedysm not Trump is all right,
So let's do these one at a time. Where do
we stand with the Ukraine Russian peace talks? And how
important is this to Trump's legacy?
Speaker 5 (08:01):
Well, it's important for American interests and important for the
civility in the future of Europe and a more peaceful world.
And where we are is Vladimir Putin has significantly annoyed
Donald Trump.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
And there's so there's three scenarios.
Speaker 5 (08:21):
One is put needs a ceasefire as much as the
Ukrainians do. Both of them I think are strategic overreach.
They really can't achieve their goals, so a pause for
both sides would look at a pause as a real opportunity.
One is Putin just takes a deal. He does what
Russians always do, which is they want to see what
(08:42):
they can get something for nothing, and then once they
realize this is all they're going to get if they
need a deal, they cut a deal. So one is
who just wakes up one day and says, let's get
a deal. You know, it could happen this month, could
happen tomorrow. Scenario two is shot. And then there's there's two,
like there's two possible serious One is Trump gets sports
is I'm not taking my ballic at home, yourps around
(09:04):
your own That I think is least likely because he
creates a lot of risk for Trump. The other is
Putin really, I mean, Trump really puts the screws on Puttin.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
And so I'm banking on one or three.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Yeah, and it's looking more and more like three every day.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
That whole balance of can this be a march towards,
as you say, an exit for Putin and an end
of this, or is this going to start marching towards
an escalation towards World War. I don't want to see
Donald Trump gets so annoyed that, you know, but I
do think he'll put the screws to him in terms
of sanctions and other things. And then I think, you know,
(09:46):
the mineral deal, if it follows through and goes through,
we'll have general interest on the ground, so that will
force him to defend that more. I don't think there's
any other Putin's got to take one now.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Or he's never going to get a better chance. It's
going to get only uglier for him.
Speaker 5 (10:02):
I think escalations the least likely scenario, because look, you
can't win the warrior fighting, you know, you don't start
new ones.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Only only Hitler did that.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
What are we doing, uh in the Middle East? I mean,
I presume yesterday in addition to talking about tariffs, him
and BB talked about Hamas and the Gaza.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
Well, I mean, here's what I believe the Iranians will do,
which is what they always do, is because in the end,
it's the preservation of the regime and the revolution that's
most important. Uh, they will they will go quiet and
knuckle down. So, uh, they won't kind of deal with
Trump because that I don't see how they can do that.
(10:46):
But on the other hand, they get very risk averse,
and so I think they just pull in their claws,
try to wait Trump out, wait for the future they got.
They don't got many cards to play. Remember the price
of oil and Russia just went down to fifty dollars
a barrow to go down lower.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
So they're out of money. The Iranians are out of money,
but the.
Speaker 5 (11:09):
Slaughtered don't forget that right to turn and focus on
domestic repression, you know, and you know, live to fight
another day. And then you know, there's all this internal
squabbling about the future of the regime.
Speaker 4 (11:20):
You know what happens after I told and everything. So
that would be my guest. So I wouldn't expect a
big deal with the Iranians.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
But what about the remainder of the hostage is being
released by Hamas? How close are we to that that?
Speaker 5 (11:31):
I don't know, you know, Well, that's the thing is,
I don't know how many living hostages there are.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
I remember we talked about this long ago.
Speaker 5 (11:39):
I mean I I talked to Israeli a long time ago,
and they thought the living number was under thirty. We've
I don't think we've actually I think we've seen about
that many come out since that conversation that I had
with them, So I'm not sure how.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
Many if there's any, you know, living hostages.
Speaker 5 (12:00):
Left and again, from a larger standpoint, it's it's not
really about the hostage, it's about the future of Gaza.
And I think, well, we are, you know, the five
steps of grief, right, So we're at the step where
Trump is, and I think that Yahoo have made it
very clear that we're not going back to the battle
days of you know, we're going to flood the thing
(12:20):
with Really, if we're going to send under that's just
not going to happen. So I think we've reached the
stage where people realize the status quo.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
We're not returning to a status quo. That's I think
about all I know at this point.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Wonderful, wonderful to have you back. You're not going to
disappear again for three four weeks? Are you just what
I'm going to say?
Speaker 5 (12:39):
I am going to I am going to be in
another part of the world next week. But you know,
the time zones are different enough, we probably ought to
be able to talk. So as long as it's not
on a plane. You know, one of these days are
going to get the plane thing figured out.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Yes, I'll have it.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
It'll be like the old days where I have the
pilot patch it through Lieutenant James Carafano. Back to serve
with honors. So good to talk to you, sir. We'll
talk again next week from wherever you are.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
You got it. It's your morning show with Michael del Chano.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
You're just waking up. Welcome to Tuesday, April the eighth.
The Florida Gators are national champions. The market didn't crash,
and here are your top five stories of the day.
President Trump says he plans to raise tariffs on China
by another fifty percent if they don't get rid of
their retaliatory tariffs listen.
Speaker 6 (13:30):
In a post on truth Social Trump said a deadline
of Tuesday we're China to undo its thirty four percent
duties that were put in place to the reciprocal tariffs
announced last.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Week by the White House.
Speaker 6 (13:40):
Trump said he will cancel any plan to talks with
China if they don't comply.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
The President notes talks with other countries are starting immediately.
Speaker 6 (13:48):
I'm rc nephew, Florida leaves it by two, you sayn't
gonna go, You say give it up, cror.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Six seconds seconds? Sure he can't touch it.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Share. I mean, if you, if you lived like I did,
and you just you know, couldn't hold on any longer,
I believe I should turn in my man card. It
was white lotus that kept me up till ten pm
the previous night, and then last night it just looked
(14:21):
like there was no overcoming Houston's defense.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
And I think, you know, with like a.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Minute left, they Gators had only led the game by
seventeen seconds. I mean, it was just dominated by Houston
through up and then an up and down ends it.
I mean, the look on Calvin Sampson's face, they just
can't get that big win. But Florida back on top.
It's been nearly two decades since they went back to
back in two thousand and six. In two thousand and seven,
Will Richard with eighteen points led the Gators to the
(14:47):
national championship sixty five sixty three.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
Last night.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Meanwhile, President Trump, sometimes I wonder if he does this
just so the left takes the bait and talks dictator.
He's reportedly planning a military parade for his own birthday
in our.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Nation's capital.
Speaker 7 (15:04):
For the streets of the nation's capital on June fourteenth,
the president's seventy ninth birthday and the Army's two hundred
and fiftieth anniversary. The parade will be four miles long,
going from the Pentagon to the White House. Trump had
attempted to plan a military parade during his first term
in twenty eighteen that it was called off after the
price tag was quoted at ninety two million dollars.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Final mesa Taylor all right. In sports other than the
National Championship. In the NBA, the Kings beat the Pistons
one twenty seven, one seventeen on the ice. The Blues
loss of the Jets three to one, and that snapped
a seven or twelve what I keep saying seven twelve
game winning streak for the Saint Louis Blues. They were
out of the playoff picture, but after twenty four straight
points there in the thick of the playoff and playing
(15:45):
some of their best hockey. So tough loss last night,
but pretty remarkable to win twelve in a row, Lightning
easy over the Rangers five to one, Ducks are three
two over the Oilers, and the Kings lost two to
one to the crack. In baseball, Tigers beat the Yankees
six to two, Cardinals fell eight to four to Pitch.
Dodgers lost six to forty the Nats. That's two in
a row for the Dodgers and the Padreys over the
A's and Sacramento.
Speaker 8 (16:07):

Speaker 2 (16:40):
Enjoyed the podcast on the Aaron streaming live on your
iHeartRadio app. A lot of ways for you to make
your voice heard. You can email Michael d at iHeartMedia
dot com.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
I got one.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
This one's from Rick who writes on Black Monday. The
market crashed, and as it did, foolish people sold in panic.
The next few days, the mar mart was a little rocky,
but the savvy investors scooped up the bargains.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
What did I say yesterday? In the height of all this?
Speaker 2 (17:06):
I said, if I had a million dollars and I don't,
I'd take eight hundred thousand and I would put it
in the market. And boy would that pay off today
because the futures are up almost a thousand. When I said,
what would I do with the other two hundred thousand,
I would put it on the Gators minus one. But
Bruto Mars wasn't listening. While it took two years to
(17:27):
fully recover, the gain in two years was twenty one percent,
and the gain in just a week to those who
went bargain hunting was over ten percent. I'm no genius,
but I can learn from history, and I think quite
a few others did I bought stocks yesterday?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
The market will rebound quickly. The art of the deal
brings trade back to reality with tariffs being dropped by
all Rick, Yeah, well, nothing.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Went the narrative way. You know, I did a pretty
simple post. The market closed. They were predicting in the
futures the market would lose four percent. It lost one
point six I think, or whatever it was. Only the
Dow was down three forty nine, the Nasdaq was actually
up fifteen, and the SMP was basically flat, down eleven bucks.
And now the futures showed up one thousand, So what
(18:14):
was the narrative? Market's going to follow another four percent
or worse. They may have to do the mandatory pauses.
This is a crash in the market. It's a self induced,
biggest ignorant mistake ever. And then the reality Dow down
three forty nine, Nasdaq actually up in seventy. Nations lined
up Japan to be first in line to renegotiate Europe
floating a zero for zero tariff resolution, and just like that,
(18:38):
futures are through the roof. So another narrative bites the
dust and dies of reality. Do you keep those emails coming?
Michael Didiheartmedia dot com. Don't forget the talk back button
on your iHeartRadio app. Do you know it was on
this day in history? Seems like yesterday and I don't
know what it was. I think we were watching the
White Sox and at that time, Harry Carey was the
(19:00):
White Sox announcer with Jimmy pearsall so Harry inebriated Jimmy
Pearsall you know the man who climbed the backstop for
the Red Sox yelling are you proud of me?
Speaker 4 (19:11):
Id? Dad?
Speaker 3 (19:13):
All right?
Speaker 2 (19:13):
But they were switching to Atlanta Fulton County Stadium every
time Henry Aaron was up. It is lost on history.
I can tell you. As a ten year old child,
I was not aware that Henry Aaron was receiving death
threats for potentially breaking Baby Bruce home run record. All
I can tell you is I had a huge Henry
(19:35):
Aern poster in my bedroom. He was bigger than life.
I didn't see color. I saw one of my heroes.
And so I'm watching the White Sox. I'm laying on
a shag rug watching a console TV. And they switched
to Atlanta Fulton County. Some may accuse al downing of
the Dodgers of grooving one, but boy and Henry Aaron
take it out of the park. Seven point fifteen breaking
(19:58):
Baby Bruce record happened. On this date, April eighth, nineteen
seventy four. In some ways it feels like yesterday. Sounds
of the day. How do we get them? Well, we start,
That's how we get them all.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
There alright, our raight.
Speaker 9 (20:13):
This is CNN, this is the news, and that's why
more people are watching the cartoon networks.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Lungebobbery runs right now. I'm big a democratic. This is
like a goldstong in a past I said, of a
government that just minds its own damn business.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
He's revealing, often entertaining. This is your Sounds of the day.
The Dodgers are in the White House, Boy Donald Trump
at a classic line.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Listen, congratulations, Brian and others.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
We have a couple of senators here. I just don't
particularly like them. Was that one't introd.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Over the course of this amazing season the members of
this team.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
How he turned from the team.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
I have no idea what he whispered to the dog
when he turned around and put his hand over his mouth.
But they started cracking up. They were quite honored each ye.
Row in the Oval office I think was one of
the prize moments. I mean, the president just kept no
what's his name? When the pitches in and hits home runs.
(21:18):
Otani Otani, I said, each Roe. But the President is
giving them all kinds of stuff, just adoring him. And
then he said, hey, take a picture by the Declaration
of Independence. It really was an amazing day at the
White House for the Los Angeles Dodgers, who then went
to the stadium and lost to the Nets. After that,
all right, BB Net and Yahoo. I don't know if
there were hostage talks. I don't know if there were
(21:38):
Middle East war talks, but there was definitely tariff talks.
And here's what bb had to say to the press
from the White House.
Speaker 5 (21:45):
I said to the President of quickly, we will eliminate
the trade deficit with the United States.
Speaker 3 (21:52):
We intend to do it very quickly.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
We think it's the right thing to do.
Speaker 5 (21:56):
And we're going to also eliminate trade areas, a variety
of trade barriers that have been put up unnecessarily. And
I think this will conserve as a model for many
countries who ought to do the.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Same, lowering tariffs, removing trade barriers, and being an example
for other countries. How many other countries are lined up
about seventy according to the White House, And who's in
the front of the line. Well, our Treasury secretary joined
Fox Business with this announcement.
Speaker 9 (22:27):
Larry, I can tell you that there are fifty sixty,
maybe almost seventy countries now whoever approached us. So it's
going to be a busy April May, maybe in the June.
And Japan is a very important military ally, they're very
important economic ally, and the US has a lot of
(22:48):
history with them, So I would expect that Japan's going
to get priority just because they came forward very quickly.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
But it's going to be very busy.
Speaker 9 (23:00):
And President Trump again gave himself maximum negotiating leverage, and
just when he achieved a maximum leverage, he's willing to
start talking.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
And eu flowate.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
It's the idea, but zero for zero terraff resolution to
remove industrial fees on US goods. They're ready for a
good deal again, for those who've read the book The
Art of the Deal, just read it and now over
the next couple of months with the ultimate leverage repage
seventy two, because he's not going to take their first offer.
(23:36):
You know, we were talking earlier with James Carafano.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
And we were wondering, you.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Know, Donald Trump talks a lot about George Washington, a
lot about Abraham Lincoln, but I suspect that John F.
Kennedy and Ronald Reagan were the two most influential presidents
in his life on this issue. If you go back
and listen, you can start with Oprah in nineteen eighty.
This is a big issue for Donald Trump. He's been
(24:05):
on the losing end of this as a businessman his
entire life. He's appalled by these bad deals. But what
appalls him most he said at eighty eight, he said
it coming down the escalator, and he's been saying.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
It ever since.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
The bad deals with our friends. You expect it from
enemies Russia, North Korea, China, but not your friends. So
just as twenty four hours ago when you thought the
sky was falling and I was telling you it's not,
(24:41):
and it didn't, I'm telling you today, He's going to
make these deals one at a time, and China's going
to have to come to the table eventually.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
They have way more to lose.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
And if they're the only pain that we have to feel,
primarily chips and phones, you'll be able to afford it.
For all you're going to say from the friends that
are going to come to the table. So Netanya, who's
at the White House. Boom, We're lifting our tariffs. Boom,
We're bringing down these trade barriers, and we're calling the
(25:15):
other countries to do the same, and seventy of them
are in line. That's a big difference from this time yesterday.
We always love any time we get a SoundBite involving
the crew at CNN, and this one is no exception.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
This has to do with the.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
I think the two sounds we played yesterday, one was
Kamala Harris's word salad and the other was from coach Timmy.
But here's the Republican response on CNN.
Speaker 10 (25:48):
First of all, seeing that video Kamala Harris and then
his videos of Tim Walls the last few days, ma'am, did.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
We dodge a bullet? You just loved Scott Jennings a
watch where he goes with it, mercy, these.
Speaker 10 (25:57):
Books coming out, these books coming out, walking into the.
Speaker 3 (26:02):
It can all be told now.
Speaker 10 (26:03):
I mean I sat here all during the campaign and
was assure Joe Biden was fine. Kamala Harris had the
most organic, grassroots driven campaign. The Democrats were unified. We
had a campaign of joy, and.
Speaker 4 (26:15):
Everything was hunky Dory.
Speaker 10 (26:17):
That's what I was told night after night after night,
And now all the books are coming out, and it's
amazing because a lot of the people who were telling.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Those laws are not going to get paid to write
those books. I'm so glad he called him on that.
I don't know it may rival. Covid A is one
of the greatest hoaxes. And the question that still needs
to be answered, and we all deserve an answer to,
is who really was running this country and with auto
sign is any of the things they did legally binding?
(26:46):
But Scott Jennings, these same buffoons that were lying to
you are now getting rich writing books admitting they lied.
You know, if we did have an election with non
politicians like Steve and A, Scott and other, how about
Scott Jennings's to Steve and A get rid of all politicians.
Let those two take it out. I would love Scott
Jennings to be president. All right, Um, well, this one
(27:09):
kind of sets itself up and speaks for itself.
Speaker 11 (27:11):
Listen, if San Francisco is launching a new speed safety
pilot program backed by Democratic California Governor Gavin Newsom, where
how much you pay for a speeding ticket?
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Depends on who you are, and it's all in the
name of equity.
Speaker 11 (27:25):
On its website, the Cydney Transportation Authority goes out of
its way to explain that speed safety cameras will be
dispersed across San Francisco in a quote equitable fashion, but
not everyone will.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
Have to pay the same if they get a ticket.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Get this.
Speaker 11 (27:38):
Low income offenders qualify for steep fine discounts guys up
to half off, and if you're homeless but speeding in
your vehicle, you can get up to eighty percent discount. Jerry,
here's just one of the many problems I have with Larry.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
You just can't make this stuff up.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
They just don't realize wokeness is dead, especially the one
who is the only Democrat trying to sell a pivot
is selling punishment based on income. We did this clip earlier,
but I got to repeat it for those of you
that weren't up yet. This is Elizabeth Warren on with Jensaki.
(28:21):
This is after the market didn't crash. This is after
seventy nations come forward to renegotiate. This is after polling
shows the president's approval rating up with the including the tariffs.
But that doesn't stop them from worshiping each other and
selling fear. Here's former White House spokesperson Political Operative, now
(28:45):
a host talking to the far left, Elizabeth Warren, and
listen to how it just starts dripping in love and
respect as promised.
Speaker 12 (28:55):
Joining me now is Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts. She's
the ranking Democrat on the Senate Banking commit She also
says in the Senate Finance Committee. She knows how to
talk about and explain this is she's better than anyone
I know.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
We're in Professor.
Speaker 12 (29:07):
Warren's class right now, a lot.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Of Professor Warren's class.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
How lucky we are to be on MSNBC with no
viewers in Jen Zaki and in Professor Elizabeth Warren's Native
American class. Here's Cuckoo, fran and Ali trying to keep
a narrative that had already died hours earlier on Inside
with Jens Hockey.
Speaker 12 (29:29):
So let me start there, because I really a lot
of people are just digesting this around the country. And
you know, today Trump said that maybe some of the
tariffs could be permanent. We don't know that to be
the case, but just help us understand what the impact
of that could be.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
So understand it this way.
Speaker 8 (29:45):
Donald Trump has done massive tariffs, and this comes from
someone who actually believes that tariffs are an important tool
in our economic toolbox.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
There are good times to use it.
Speaker 8 (29:56):
We want to onshore supply chain that, we want to protec,
we want to make more pharmaceuticals here, we want to
make more cars here.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
But you do this very carefully, and you do it
in combination.
Speaker 8 (30:08):
Within you're doing domestically, just support so that work actually
gets done. Not Donald Trump comes in and basically starts
the dumbest trade war in the history of this country.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
And then.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Dumbest trade war in the history of this country. A
quote they didn't even stand up to the moment she
made it. The narrative have already died. Let's see how
it holds up in the coming days.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
I really don't know what he said at the end
of this sentence.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
I don't think he knows what he said either.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
It's got to be a big misunderstanding. I'm that is
a topic. How do you like my This is Your
Morning Show with Michael del Chno, don.
Speaker 13 (31:00):
Rice ball as ball As, I'm concerned, Hank Aaron, his
failed call U all the drugs and he's cheated me
to be thrown out of the boat.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
But Henry back in there where he belongs.
Speaker 13 (31:11):
Hi Michael, I too, was sitting in front of a
black and white television when they cut in to show
Hank Aaron hitting his seven hundred and fifteenth home run.
And I had very few things that have survived to
this day from my childhood. But not too long ago,
I was going through some old boxes and I found
the Sports Illustrated that has seven point fifteen and Hank
(31:33):
Aaron holding up the ball. I still have that to
this day, and I cherish it.
Speaker 9 (31:37):
Here's the pitch by Downing swinging, there's a time and
the left of Veil thattball.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
It's got a bad hot a he it's gone.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
On this date, April eighth, nineteen seventy four.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
By the way, our console was colored.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
I had black and white upstairs in my bedroom, which,
by the way, a Browns Bengals game you would squint
to see if you could see little letters on the helmet.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
Otherwise you couldn't tell who was who. It looked like
a scrimmage.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
But we had color downstairs and we were watching the
White Sox, I believe, and they kept cutting to the game,
and Aaron was up and he had one of the
most effortless, beautiful swings you've ever seen and down he
just grooveed it and he just put it right out
of the park. And I remember the time thinking, well,
here comes a fan, you know, to celebrate. And I
(32:25):
remember thinking kind of like, why is Aaron reacting that way?
And you know, after now as an adult, learning all
the death threats he was receiving, he probably had no
idea who this guy was running on the field and
what he had planned to do. But I hope Henry
Aaron died knowing he was a lot of us, even
though we were white.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
He was our hero.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
I had a poster, gosh, it was a quarter of
the size of my wall in my room of Henry Aaron,
and I didn't live anywhere near Atlanta.
Speaker 3 (32:59):
He was a true as a man.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
As a player, he finished with seven hundred and sixty
two or seven hundred and fifty five home runs. Barry
Bond surpassed him with seven sixty two. I used to
always say, and this came up a lot during Mark
McGuire's run at the single season Babe Ruth record, it's
still a round ball and it's still around bat you know.
But I think when it comes to the overall home
(33:23):
run king, I think America still predominantly sees Babe Ruth
and Henry Aeron, and I don't think they acknowledged Barry
Bonds and I think the proven drug use is the
reason why. But on this date, what a moment. That
was kind of an unthinkable We just saw Ov take
Wayne Gretzky's goalscoring record. I never thought i'd see that broken.
I remember ten years old thinking, oh my gosh, you're
(33:45):
taking down Babe Bruce record. What a moment it was
when Henry Aaron became the home run king on this date,
April the eighth, in nineteen seventy four.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
We're all in this together.
