Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, I'm Michael. We'd love to have you listen every
weekday morning to your morning show live, even take us
along with you on the drive to work. We can
be heard on great radio stations like one oh four
nine The Patriot in Saint Louis, Our Talk Radio ninety
eight point three and fifteen ten WLAC and Nashville and
News Talk five fifty k FYI and Phoenix, Arizona. Love
to be a part of your morning routine, but we're
always grateful you're here. Now, enjoy the podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Well two three, starting your morning off right, A new
way of talk, a new way of understanding.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Because we're in this together.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
This is your Morning Show with Michael o'deill.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
John seven minutes after the hour, Thanks for waking up
with your morning show. I'm Michael del journo. All right,
seven and ten. Americans thought we were heading in the
wrong direction. Maybe not so much by the three twelve
electoral College map for the six million in winning the
popular vote, but on specific issues about border, border security, deportation,
on the economy, mandates from the American people for change

(01:01):
and real change. Okay, well it's coming. We'll have an
inauguration in January and here comes Donald Trump in a
second term. What are the four or five reasonable expectations
you can have for things that he can get done
in a single term, a single term that may amount
to be one hundred days at best. I've asked your

(01:22):
Morning Show senior contributor Dave Sonati to join us to
discuss how much can Trump get done in this one
term versus get started for whoever his successor is to continue.
That's an important distinction, and probably the best way to
understand it, David, is to start with his first term
in twenty sixteen.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Sure, Michael, let's go back to twenty sixteen, and he
comes down the escalator. He wins and sets the tone
for the country because it was an unexpected victory. So
now people are going to let's see what happens. So
we set down and evaluated of all the things that
he was saying, what would we hope that he will
have accomplished? And so we sat down as a team

(02:03):
and at the American policy around them. He said, well,
there's some big ones and some small ones. Obviously he
made a big deal about Obamacare, and he was right.
So what are the odds and what are the possibilities
of him making a move to get rid of Obamacare. Well,
we know that that wasn't going to happen because of
people like John McCain in the Senate who weren't going

(02:23):
to let there be a total, absolute reform. But what
could he get done? So what Trump did was he
worked with Rand Paul and very creatively and very diligently
began to tailor down some of the biggest excesses and
problems and holes in Obamacare. So they made some really
good moves there, and they did it without a lot
of notice.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
Next thing we took a look at was the Supreme Court.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Obviously he was going to have the potential of getting
some Supreme Court appointments. That was, without a doubt the
thing that he handled best. Regardless of a person's view
on where they stand on the question of abortion, the
justices that Donald Trump put forward are thoughtful jurists who
have worldview considerations. They get America and that's really important.

(03:08):
And he did great you have there. And then there
was an outlier a promise that he made. The promise
that he made about getting rid of the Johnson Amendment,
which is a single line in the federal tax code
that passed by a single vote back in the sixties
through Senator Lyndon Johnson. That is victimized, if you will, nonprofits,
particularly churches, in regards to fearing that they don't have

(03:30):
the right to talk about electoral politics from their pulpits
or their universities for fear of losing their tax status.
Trump said it was big on his mind and he
attempted to get it done. Unfortunately, he got sabotaged by
the charities in Washington, d C. They couldn't get their
act together, and that blew up. Now, he also did
something that we didn't think he could get done, and
that was the major tax reform that he got accomplished.

(03:51):
Now he only had two years of the first term.
Pore COVID hit and took his administration away from it.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
I would just add one that I noticed you left off,
and this was a big you know, you always start
with the escalator. You got to remember Fox wasn't on
the side. Everybody thought it was a joke, and he
took out nineteen of the top Republican political names one
by one in that primary and won it. One of
the things he talked a lot about was China and

(04:18):
unfair trade deals, and he did address that, and perhaps
China retaliated with COVID because his presidency ended after two years,
and so you think about it.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
Of course, his foreign policy's very presence in foreign policy
was also significant. This was a very busy administration that
did a whole lot of good in a short amount
of time, then basically got their situation taken away from them.
Now he's going to be experiencing a very similar scenario
here on the timeline, but this time he clearly understands.

Speaker 1 (04:46):
He and his team know what they're getting into.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
They've only got two years before the entire conversation is
who's the next president is going to be, So they've
got to move quickly. So what are realistic expectations here?
Four or five things? Let's just talk about volue. There's
only so much you can do in twenty four months,
So let's say what would four or five things be.
I think we talked about this yesterday briefly securing his

(05:08):
tax cuts from the prior administration.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
It's an easy one important and that's really, really really important.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
That is a sign to the economy that gives them
a window to keep moving.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
And Michael, I don't know what you're seeing.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
But I've been talking to our accountants and our tax people,
and different people are on the country and bankers, and
they have seen the minute this man was the race
was called for Trump, It's like somebody flipped the switch
on the economy. Things are accelerating very very quickly. So
giving these tax matters resolve so that those tax cuts
are certain and the.

Speaker 1 (05:41):
Border might be the two easiest in his control. Reasonable exit,
you can expect he'll just reverse the executive orders that
they reversed and you'll have your border security. Now there
might be a little bit of fight over whether or
not he can use the National Guard to help with
deportation and border security. That's a fight that will have
to happen, but he can reasonably bring things right back

(06:02):
to where they were at the border. You got to
figure he could stop the bleeding. But then you've got
to figure out what to do with these, you know,
millions that are now here. That and the continuation of
the tax cuts, which by the way, is a huge
legacy issue that he'll get no credit for because he's
going to keep calamity from happening without anybody discussing it.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
And there's a lot in that tax package that is
now working its way through and working out. It caused
changes for everybody, and nobody likes change. Nobody likes change
when you're messing with their money. But this is working out,
and if they can continue to go in this pattern
because of the predictability, this would be a good situation.
And as far as the border goes, has been pointed

(06:43):
out before. The laws are on the books to secure
our borders, it takes the courage of an administration to
implement them and agencies to carry them out, and to
Congress that isn't going to try to go ahead and intercept.
Now he's got all green lights, they just have to
go ahead and move forward.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
What are the four or five reasonable expectations of what
Trump can geld done in a single term. David Sinati's
joining us. All right, We talked about tech, cut, talked
about the border. What would be a third Well, I
think he's.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
Going to get Supreme Court appointments as well, because it
just given the ages of where these people are and
the careers, I wouldn't be surprised to see John Roberts
throw in the top uh now. And that would be
an interesting situation because this happened under George W. Bush,
and he missed the window of opportunity when that you
went Renquist as Chief Justice decided to step down. Bush

(07:33):
had a fantastic opportunity to make Scalia the chief Justice
of the Supreme Court, and he booted it.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
He missed it. We did that have? Did that have
an impact in personhood?

Speaker 2 (07:43):
And oh, his first and his first nominee, Bush's first
time he was Harriet Myers his chief of staff, which
was a disaster, and I mean that was so he
worked that out into a better way and which we
turned it into a better place. But the reality is,
is Trump's proba going to get an appointment from somewhere.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
We don't know.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
We don't know whether Thomas will have said he's had enough.
We don't know if Roberts will throw on the top.
You don't know, if someone's going to get sick. You
don't know, if somebody's just going to pass away.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
You don't know. So that's clearly a key.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
And we haven't heard any conversation about whether he still
has that list of twenty five jetuges, right, Okay, no, these.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
That's a real important list. I hope they didn't lose them, No,
I doubt it.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
So that's certainly one thing that we've got to take
a look at. And again we've talked about the border.
I think that's significant. I think if they can keep
their eyes on healthcare, because that's the sleeping problem that
we have right now, the sleeping problem in regards to
our healthcare. Our healthcare is deteriorating in this country because
of the Obamacare provisions, particularly in regards to reporting and

(08:44):
federal record keeping in.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
Regards to healthcare.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
You know, I went to see a doctor the other
day and it was hilarious in this office and I
kept hearing these wheels scraping across I'm sitting in one
of the rooms waiting to see the doctor, and you
keep hearing these wheels going across the Pathfwow, these doctors
are tethered to their little computer screens. They now have
them on wheels.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
Yeah, that's been fun. And they dragged them around like
shopping carts. So my daughter's going to be a nurse practition.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
So they come in and and and all it's it's
it's ridiculous. It's like they're playing a video game the
whole time. You're trying to have a conversation with your doctor. Yeah,
because they're on the computer. You didn't bring up education
and education.

Speaker 1 (09:22):
You know, just on the surface, has the feeling of
like Obamacare, this is something he's targeting up front, didn't
target it throughout the campaign, secures it, and then boom,
pivots to it. What did he learn from his Obamacare
efforts that failed or were reshaped that he can apply

(09:43):
to education because his appointment is pretty clear, this is
the person that's going to preside over shutting this down.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
Well, if he makes the move to go forward to
abolishing the Department of Education, it's just an accepted objective
that's not unreasonable. Is going to take a significant amount
of time because he's not going to be able to
eliminate the appropriations and the entitlement language that exists that
creates the agency and the funding that will take that'll

(10:09):
take a full four years, and it may not actually
happen until whoever gets the presidency next. The question is
can he set the direction in such a way that
he wins the public debate that we don't need a
federal Department of Education because we didn't have one until
the sixties, and at this stage in the game, they
still only provide about seven percent of education funding from
the federal government to local schools.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
Anyhow do you pivot back to an immigration Do you
pivot back to the wall. Do you keep it strictly
for those with a felony record just to avoid any
kind of public division? I mean, I think that's a
good four year reasonable expectation we get the dangerous elements
out of our country.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
If he starts with that is the focus, and then
behind closed doors, which he's allowed to do to a
certain degree. I'm not suggesting no transparency, but while everyone
is watching what's going on over here, and they're handling
this responsibly even though it's going to have all the
cameras on it over here, if he gets behind with
people and settles the immigration problem as far as legislation goes,
that is honestly a doable deal because the economy drilling

(11:07):
is the other thing that he can he can obviously do,
and we've been drilling a lot as it is. Forgive me,
because I almost take that as a given.

Speaker 1 (11:14):
YEA. If day one he does.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
What he said about taking off those executive orders and
sending a green light to the fossil fuel industry, that
you're back in business again, that this economy will soar
and you will begin to see things happen.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
Very cool. One thing people don't like these priceles. One
thing you didn't mention was the tariffs. I never felt
like the tariffs were a reality as much as a
negotiating point. They'll become moot because he'll negotiate something better,
or he may apply and we'll see, Yeah, we'll see.

Speaker 2 (11:39):
And but again, businesses have the ability to operate with notice.
They can move things around to function within that system.
Those tariffs do benefit some industries. For some of the people,
they're a problem. So it's kind of like which way
do you go. That's a difficult situation, and that's going
to take some work. But again we're talking about five, six,
seven things we've talked about.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Now.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
The most significant reality is if all of these things
are going in that direction and he doesn't have some
national tragedy or some historic massive event that takes him
off the mark, which is kind of a bait for
where we're going, probably going to get d.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
Up after Wall. Well, they used COVID to block his
first presidency, They used insurrection to try to block him
from ever running again it You know, I don't have
to tell you. The dark shadow in the room is
you've just given Russia a reason to start a world war.
And they're using the very same rhetoric JFK used during
the Cuban missile crisis. Those are US missiles you authorized

(12:37):
to be used. We're seeing it as a US attack
on Russia. That's a breach of NATO, that's a call
for war. Would they try to start a world war
to prevent his presidency from being effective? It's a real question.
Old is John Podesta this morning? Well, he's not answering
the phone that's hooked up between Moscow and the White
House because he's out of the country.

Speaker 3 (12:58):
This is your Morning Show with Michael de Otrono.

Speaker 1 (13:02):
We have the talkback button. Just go to the iHeartRadio
app under your Morning show. You'll see a little microphone.
You click it, it count you down. You can ask
a question, make a comment. We get it instantly, like
this listener from KTLK in the lou Well.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
All, let's talk about that deportation. How come we're not
talking about the issue with viza overstates. I read an
article where I've stated that visa overstates are actually a
bigger a bigger number than land border crossing. What are
we doing about that situation?

Speaker 1 (13:32):
Well, that's a whole can of worms. Number one, we
have a we can't even make the distinction of a
legal immigration let alone. We have failures within our legal
immigration system that needs reform. One of them is visas.
I mean, that was the lesson of nine to eleven. Right,
these people were all here on visas. We lost track
of them. Actually four of them were expired visas and

(13:53):
they went on to commit nine to eleven. You're so right.
Hopefully the first thing I do is stop the bleeding
and secure the border. Next thing deeport those of immediate harm,
and then the third thing is get to these massive
reforms of legal and a legal immigration. Great point from
Saint Louis. All right, Shannon is listening. I forgot where
Shannon's from, but here's Shannon.

Speaker 5 (14:13):
Good morning, Shannon calling from Ottawa, Canada. I was just
listening to the article about men in the women's room
in Congress. What about Rachel Levine? Did that not ever
pose any questions? I'm just curious if he used the
women's restroom in the house. Have a great day, Thank you.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
I can't say that he was never in the house
and used the restroom, or which one he would have operated,
I believe out of the executive building, right. He was
not a member of Congress. He was a member of cabinet.
This is Woody kay f Yi in Phoenix.

Speaker 6 (14:53):
Michael, good morning, It's Woody and Buriers on an AMMA retiree.
Enjoy getting up early and listening to the show every morning,
but I'm kind of bummed out with the recent daylight
savings time change and the roll back in hours. We
only get the first two hours of the show here
in Phoenix. We don't get to hear the third hour.
So no more Fridays with forty five for us in

(15:15):
Phoenix for a while.

Speaker 1 (15:17):
Two things. One make a note Jeffrey that when we
have Trump on on Friday, to eliminate time changes. OK.
The other one is we have a podcast, So everything
you hear every morning live on a radio station or
on whatever app you're listening is in the podcast. Just
go to the podcast section of your iHeartRadio app search
your morning show, Michael del Jorna. When it pops up,
its subscribed. That way, all three hours they're waiting for

(15:38):
you every morning. You could always listen to other radio
stations that carry all three hours digitally as well. Batt
and Cleanup. Is Mary listening to Kate ste in Sacramento
Good Morning.

Speaker 7 (15:51):
Every year, the President pardons a turkey around Thanksgiving, and
I was just thinking, if.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
He names the turkey hunter Biden, he can part two
birds with one stone. Have a great day. By the way,
make a note, Mary is second on the list for
fill in host like Kurt Style. You know what happened,
David was our listeners have become as much of as
smart alec as we are, and it's inevitable. It's inevitable, brilliant.

(16:18):
That was really good.

Speaker 2 (16:18):
I mean, I'm sure that we should have had some
fust sound effects go behind that one. I was looking
for the sneer drums or whatever.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
Perfect. Hey, this is top Cop Kathy Hinters and my
morning show is your Morning Show with Michael Dale Jorno. Hi,
it's me Michael. Your Morning show can be heard on
great stations across the country like Talk Radio eleven ninety
at Dallas Sport Worth, Freedom one oh four point seven

(16:46):
and Washington, d C and five point fifty k f
YI and Phoenix, Arizona. We'd love to be a part
of your morning routine, take us along on the drive
to work. But as we always say, better late than never.

Speaker 8 (16:56):
Enjoyed the podcast, Good morning, long time caller, first time,
so not just like to say that, you know, we
went through the election process with Trump. One of the
things that we all talked about was it was a
little too easy, like it was a little too quiet,
feel like the Democrats gave up a little too quickly
and too easily. And so that begs the question of
what's coming down the line, because we both know that
in politics it's not quiet, it doesn't happen easy. So

(17:19):
what is it as coming down the line to help
distract or cause issues as we come into the Trump presidency.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
Ah, someone who speaks my language, thirty six minutes after
the hour, twenty four minutes to be to work on time.
Thanks for bringing us along with you at your morning show.
Great point. I felt the same thing, and I think
they were ready and willing to concede this lame duck
four years. It was a good trade for them. A
bad trade for them was Liz Cheney for Elon Musk,
RFK Junior, Telsea Gabber, Joe Rogan. A good trade for

(17:47):
them was four years of no presidency versus being stuck
with Kamala Harris. I am deeply concerned that they have
a plan to destroy this presidency, and it could be
trying to instigate a world war. I go to bed
at night actually with more trust in Vladimir Putin and

(18:09):
Kim Jong un from stopping this plan from happening. But
they're doing all they can to provoke it. That could
be an answer to your question. And I do think
that they have a way to allow this to happen
for four years and come back strong. And that leads
into what I wanted to share. So Echelon Insights does
their first poll of who were the top contenders to
run for president in four years. Number one on the

(18:30):
list is Kamala Harris. Some of that's explainable because she
just ran. They're not that stupid. To the caller's point,
it's not going to be common. They got it only
completely backwards. They got Gavin Newsom second at eight percent.
It's not going to be Gavin Newsom. Jos Shapiro I
think is in the mix. He's in third at seven percent.
I think he's going to be a running mate. You
will not see botaj Ed, You will not see Tim Walls.

(18:51):
You will not see AOC. AOC may be the heir
apparent for the agitator position that's been held by Bernie Sanders,
and that could make things interesting in primaries. You know,
don't forget Bernie Sanders won the twenty sixteen primary and
they finagled it for Hillary, just like he won it
in twenty twenty and they finagled it for Joe Biden.
You got to go all the way down to the

(19:12):
bottom of the list at one percent before you find
the Maryland Governor Wes Moore, and I guarantee you that's
their Barack Obama two point zero. That's the top of
their ticket in four years. That's their play. Interesting. On
the Republican side, jd. Vance is in the drive seat
at thirty seven percent, and that would be natural because
he's the vice president. Now who does he pair up with.

(19:32):
Would it be a DeSantis, would it be a Ramaswami,
not going to be a Nicky Haley? Or could somebody
like a Marco Rubio take him out? Sarah Huckabee. Sanders
is out there as their running mate, and I think
nowhere on this list is somebody's going to be very
high on the list, and that's Telsea Gabbard. So this
is all very interesting stuff. David do on that quick note,
what do you make of these polls? Because it just

(19:53):
goes to show you the very people that were so
wrong about what would happen in twenty twenty four are
nowell you what's going to happen in twenty twenty eight.
They couldn't see the present, let alone the future. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:06):
Well that and it takes courage and a certain makeup
intellectually to be willing to dabble into the projections of.

Speaker 1 (20:13):
The future and to be trying to do so.

Speaker 2 (20:15):
Honestly, I acknowledge the fact working with you in radio
for a long time now, you've got some of those tendencies,
and they work out pretty.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
Well only in politics, never in sports.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
Yeah, see the Yankee Okay.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
And the Browns. Oh no, I didn't mean to do that.
Come on, don't lose your trade of thought. That's it.

Speaker 2 (20:39):
Yeah, I'll just say that word. And what happens is
all the brain damage begins to activate. Okay. So this
makes the conversation we had just in the last half
hour even more significant. If the Trump administration currently continues
with the momentum and the conversation and the dialogue and
the forthrightness that they're moving forward with the assistance of
a new leader of the Senate and with Mike Johnson's help.

(21:02):
If they set six or eight or ten of these
policy initiatives in a strong direction, even if they don't
accomplish them all over the next four years, they will
have set the direction and the expectations of the country
That will have more to do with who the candidates
are going to be than anything else. Their success will
whittle away the lists on both sides. This is an
unusual situation, Michael. We cannot state this enough. It's a

(21:25):
four year open seat coming, but it's not a second term,
it's a first term. So it will go into whoever
comes in next. Very unusual political situation with great opportunities
for the country.

Speaker 1 (21:38):
It's not about I mean to the caller, what was
he a longtime caller, first time listener? Smart el to
his point, though, if Donald Trump succeeds, that's a big
problem for them. So the number one priority is to
block his presidency. And I've seen what they've done in

(21:59):
the past. That's what's relevant. You know, Donald Trump is
rolling and things are rosy. The playing field has been even.
America couldn't have been doing better, China couldn't be doing
wrris and then we get a China virus. Then they
make that they had a plan to do insurrection if
Joe Biden didn't work, and then they create this insurrection
with Donald Trump to block him from ever running again.

(22:20):
Now I see him trying to strike up a world war. No,
I think he's right to be suspicious. But yes, you're
right to point out Donald Trump. That's why we talked
about four or five reasonable expectations. Donald Trump with a
successful four years, that is a dead end road. Has
to be the handoff. If he doesn't succeed, there's no
one to handoff to. They come in with Wes Moore

(22:42):
and that's the plan. So it's all on Donald Trump.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
And so far in the very early days where usually
they're simply spent in celebration and everyone getting their breath
back and going into the holidays, that Trump people have, wisely,
I think, with strong, strong conviction, have moved forward to
getting everything in line to make these four years the
most important and most successful in the turn that's necessary

(23:06):
in setting expectations. This is now a question of leadership.
And what it looks like is Trump's realized that something
he said that everybody went past at the end of
the campaign when he said this is the last rally
that I'll do. Now he may choose to go out
and do some rallies going forward, but basically he recognized there's.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
No more campaigning for him.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
For him now, it's all about governing, and we've not
seen a Donald Trump in that mode.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
They will not move forward because usually the left is
always a step ahead. Usually the Republicans are the ones
that play from behind. They're playing things from two cycles
ago too late, and the left has already moved on
to a new tactic. This time the field has reversed.
They lost track of the death of journalism. They lost
track of Twitter being gone and now owned by leading

(23:54):
Elon Musk and X. They saw they didn't see that
the things had transferred to Joe Rogan. They can't control
the narrative because we're caught in a moment where the
mainstream legacy media is dead and it's not coming back
to life and the birth of the new digital age.
That brings me to the New York post story today
and listen to how this reads. In the aftermath of

(24:15):
its loss on November fifth, the left has turned to
its lonely eyes to Joe Rogan. That's kind of like
a play on the Neil sime Simon and Garfunkle Missus Robinson,
listen to this. The irreverent world conquering podcaster, with fourteen
point five million Spotify followers and counting, is considered a

(24:35):
symbol of Donald Trump's ability to use quote unquote unconventional
media outlets. So here's the problem. The left doesn't get
it yet. That wasn't an unconventional media outlet. That's where
America's moved. Just because people are watching movies on their
phone now instead of going Blockbuster doesn't make it unconventional.
It makes you out of touch. And then Donald Trump
used it and reach fifty plus million people. You and

(24:57):
I talked a lot when Rush died. All right, who
replaces Rock? And the answer is no one. I thought
maybe Tucker Carlson. The reality is it was Joe Rogan,
and they had Joe Rogan, and they ran them off,
just like they had RFK, just like they had Telsey Gabbert.
And now they don't have those things or Elon Musk,
that's a real problem for them moving forward. In fact,
here's Joe Rogan. Listen to this clip and then I

(25:19):
want you to comment on it.

Speaker 9 (25:20):
We did trust the government this is, which is such
a weird thing to say. You know, I used to
think it was the Obama administration, but boy Obama during
this Kamala Harrison missed she it changed my opinion to
that guy.

Speaker 10 (25:33):
Oh really, did you have a high opinion of it?

Speaker 4 (25:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (25:36):
I did, Yeah, I did.

Speaker 9 (25:39):
Just as an intelligent person in the statesman, I felt
like he's probably like caught up in the system. It's
very difficult to make real meaningful change.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
You know.

Speaker 9 (25:47):
You think you're gonna do something and then you get
into office and you're like, oh God, what a quagmire
this place is. But watching him just straight up lie
about Trump that the thing that got me was that
very fine piece think of the white supremacist thing. They
just kept trying to say that he was a racist,
Which is this thing that I think worked in like
twenty seventeen. Yeah, you know, I think it worked back then.

(26:10):
I don't think it works anymore. I don't think people
believe it anymore. I think that we've gotten numb to
all this stuff. You know, it's interesting to that caller's
original question. Yeah, they probably got something up their sleeve,
but they don't have as an answer to Joe Rogan.
What they don't have is an answer to Elen Musk.
What they don't have is an ability to control the
narrative through the mainstream media. That's dead, and they can't

(26:31):
control opposition thought because it's now moved to X. Those
are real problems for them moving forward.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
There's Joe Rogan who gets the loss of trust, and
I think he points to David they lost more than
the Kamala Harris election. They lost the Obama legacy and
trust along the way too. They've lost a lot.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
There's a great discovery here, and I pray God we
never forget what we've just heard. Joe Rogan, along with
all the other people who showed up at the end
of this election cycle, did not come to learn a
new dance. They came because they realized they had been
lied to. This is a great awakening that they realized

(27:10):
that the progressive left has been covering and lying for
a long long time. That's why John Podesta's out of
the country and wants nowhere to be found. He has
no way to answer the questions for why have you
lied to us this long? Now, if the Republicans start lying,
they'll be in the same boat. People don't like being
lied to. I don't care whether they're religious or not.
They don't like being Richard Nixon. Yep, how about Bill Clinton.

(27:34):
I did not have sexual relations that woman. Only for
a month later. I did have sexual.

Speaker 1 (27:39):
Relations that one.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
They like being lied to, and they don't like being
lied to by their leaders. And so this is now
the opportunity for truth telling to come forward in regards
to transparency and public policy. Now, my expectations are very low.
A lot of these people have energy, and they have popularity,
and everybody's doing the dance and we get it and
it's hilarious to watch. But the rubbers still got to

(28:02):
hit the road. And the rubber's going to hit the
road with people like John Thune and Mike Rodgers, excuse me,
and Mike Johnson. Now is when the Speaker of the
House has to step now in the President of the
Senate has to step up and say, Okay, we've got
five or six opportunities here to set the direction for
the country. Don't pooch this, don't mess it up, because
if you set the direction, you'll set the expectations. And

(28:23):
that's something Poedessa can sit over wherever he's sitting over
ander Baijani or wherever he's at right now. So he
blue in the face talking about global warming, but he
and George Soros do not have enough money to buy
the expectations of the American people.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
One last kind of analogy. Sometimes in football, you run
the football, you establish the ability to run the football
and control the line of scrimmage to set up the
play action, pass and bomb. Aaron Rodgers did it for years.
Donald Trump, you all listening, You have to change your
expectations too. Donald Trump is the run to set up

(28:56):
the bomb. If he establishes the run with the three
or four gains, it sets up the bomb to whoever
his successor is that. People have got to start looking
at this more in twelve to sixteen years versus just
Donald Trump a savior in four Hey, welcome America to
grown up. Fill the truth will be free. Really, no,
I don't excel there.

Speaker 3 (29:17):
It's your morning show with Michael Delchno.

Speaker 1 (29:21):
Well, is there a growing battle inside the Republican Party
about how to execute the mass deportation of illegal immigrants.
Mark Mayfield has that story mena focus. I'm talking about
the convicted criminal aliens that keeps all Americans safer. There
is pushback from some of the Republican Party.

Speaker 10 (29:38):
Fellow Texas Congressman Chip Roy once every illegal immigrant deported.
You said this week that Republicans need to back President
elect Trump, who is vollowing mass deportations as soon as
he enters the White House.

Speaker 1 (29:49):
I'm Mark meyview an emergency hotline established during the Cuban
missile crisis talk's ability to talk between Kremlin and the
White House. It's currently out of order. Tammy Trehila reports.

Speaker 11 (30:00):
Kremlin spokesperst Indomitri Peskov said Wednesday that while the secure
line still exists, nobody's using it, just after Russia updated
its nuclear doctrine to lower the threshold for using nuclear weapons.
That move was in response to Ukraine using American made
long range missiles to strike further into Russia. The hallline
was established in nineteen sixty three after the Cuban missile

(30:22):
crisis raised fears of a nuclear exchange. I'm Tammy Trio.

Speaker 1 (30:26):
Somewhere at Sirius XM, they're moving all the music of
Jamie Johnson over to the outlaw channel. Lisa Taylor has
more lock a couple just trying to stave ejurther. You
should have seen it and col.

Speaker 7 (30:45):
The in Color singer was arrested in Tennessee on Sunday
for speeding in drug possession arrest document show Johnson had
several bags of marijuana and joints inside his car when
he was stopped. His bail was set at five thousand dollars.
I'm we see Taylor well.

Speaker 1 (30:59):
When it comes to happeniness, the experts say there are
five habits you can embrace to help your joy become
more consistent. Lucinda Kay, explains.

Speaker 12 (31:07):
A psychologist at UC Riverside, says, find activities you can
become fully absorbed in. It's called a flow state, and
it brings you joy like music, yoga, art, volunteering, practice,
random acts of kindness. They can make feel generous and
capable and choose gratitude to celebrate your wins and cheer
on other people's accomplishments too, And the big one nurture

(31:28):
your relationships.

Speaker 1 (31:30):
Research shows relationships.

Speaker 12 (31:31):
Are more important than money, your job, and even your
health when it comes to the pursuit of happiness.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
I'm liscindy, Kay, that's good advice. The war in Ukraine
now over one thousand days old, Jack Crumley takes a
look at what has turned into a bloody stalemate, what
may be ahead this winter, and how might the election
of Donald Trump affect all of the outcome. Boy, that's
a mouthful, Jack, take it from there. Good morning.

Speaker 8 (31:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
I mean trying to cram.

Speaker 13 (31:58):
A thousand days worth of war history into a report
that we'll be talking about for a few minutes. Certainly challenging,
you know, talking about a thousand days and the UN
Human Rights Office just recently talking about how twelve thousand
civilians have been killed since Russia started invading Ukraine in
February of last year, nearly twenty seven thousand injured over

(32:19):
the last thousand days, more than twenty four hundred child casualties,
as Ukraine continues to try to defend itself from this
ongoing Russian invasion.

Speaker 1 (32:28):
This week, of course, the big news is the go
ahead the permission from Joe Biden, President of the United States,
to use our long range missiles in Russia, where North
Korean troops are also located I and that has all
the sounds in World War And then Putin comes back
and says, look, those are US missiles. Missiles you gave
them permission to use, we're going to use. We're going
to see that as a breach of NATO. That is

(32:51):
USA bombing Russia. Very similar to what Jack Kennedy was
saying about Cuba and the Soviet Union at the time.
This is definitely getting interesting.

Speaker 4 (33:01):
Jack, Yeah, I mean, certainly things don't.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
Seem to be cooling down for sure.

Speaker 13 (33:06):
The Ukraine people in Ukraine getting permission ouw to use
these they're called attack ems with it can go up
to about one hundred and ninety miles, which is much
further than Ukraine has been able to launch weaponry.

Speaker 1 (33:18):
Into Russia in the past. Russia updating its.

Speaker 13 (33:21):
Nuclear doctrine doctrine to say that it's allowed.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
To use nukes it's self permission.

Speaker 13 (33:25):
These are its own internal rules now saying it is
allowed to use nuclear weapons if it is attacked by
a conventionally armed country for example Ukraine that is supported
by a nuclear power such as the United States. Now
a lot of other folks would say, well, this is
Ukraine defending itself and Ukraine wouldn't be launching any missiles
or attacking Russia if it were not for these Russian

(33:47):
and now North Korean troops looking to press further and
take more land.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
And then the hot line between Moscow and the White House,
not that the President's there, not that John Pedestas there,
these seems to be out of the country. Isn't working.
You can't make this. What's probably the greatest concern at
the moment are retaliate Well, right.

Speaker 13 (34:06):
I mean, certainly that's always a big concern. It is
the immediate concern right now that we got some news
overnight that the US Embassy in Kiev has obtained some
specific information about a potential threat from a Russian air attack.
The US Embassy in Kiev, Ukraine closed on reports of
that possible attack, telling employees to shelter in place.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
Thousand days old and growing the Ukraine Russian War, Jack,
Carly Promley, thank you so much. Great reporting today. Hopefully
we'll talk again tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (34:33):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
