Oh girl, baby girl, don't even play.
Speaker 4 (00:28):
Starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding, because we're in this together.
This is your morning show with Michael Delchny's.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Gonna be that kind of Tuesday. How are we gonna
start with AOC? Well, I got news for you.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
The girl, baby girl she's talking to is Nancy BELOWSI
that later in the show. Hey, everybody, good morning, and
welcome to Tuesday, the eleventh of March. Here of Our Lord,
twenty twenty five on the Aaron streaming live on your
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
This is your morning show, This is your day. House.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Minority leader Hakeem Jeffries expects Democrats to vote against the
spending bill proposed by Republicans, at least the first offering.
The opening bell rings this morning, a day after a
thousand point drop almost in the Dow on Wall Street,
and Ukraine appears to have carried out his largest drone
attack to date against Russia. Meanwhile, Arizona Senator Mark Kelly
(01:27):
goes to Ukraine for a visit that gets Elon Musk
to call him a trader? Is he More on that
coming up? And Tim Walls decided to have a news
conference and Kamala Harris a public appearance. Tim Walls's news
conference with Politico was we played too much prevent defense.
(01:49):
We should have been more aggressive. We should have done
more town halls. This time with Kamala Harris as they're
doing a town hall and the answer to why they
didn't do more town halls. We've been following this since
I started visiting with Roy O'Neal almost. I don't know
what that is now, year and four months ago, just
ten years. You know, there you go again, and then
(02:12):
here's the problem. People believe that you hate me, right,
I know no when I say people, I mean me no.
But we've been following this. Americans just keep racking up
credit cards. Well, now they reach the three three trillion mark.
What does that mean?
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Yeah, and five point one trillion in overall consumer debt,
and some are saying, oh, we might finally start to
see some cracks here that the consumer can't take on
too much more.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
And that's the big concern because the consumer has.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Been keeping this economy alive really for the past five years,
since the pandemic threw just about everything out of whack.
But the fact that the credit card debt keeps on
mounting up eight percent year over year, that means that
more Americans just can't seem to make ends meet. And
if we start to pull back on spending, well, then
that could really tip the economy over the edge.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
And there's this narrative going on right now that Donald
Trump's creating a lot of uncertainty, and to some degree
at this stage of the process he is. But you know,
if things, you know, stay uncertain and people are this
much in debt, yeah, that makes you start peaking at
the word recession.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
If things start to collapse. You know what, we can't
see that.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
I wish we could how much of these trillions of
dollars of credit card debt, you know, is after they've
done helocks. In other words, people have obviously been paying
for inflation with credit cards and buying on debt. But
you know, their only recourse was in the past use
(03:44):
the value of their home that may have doubled or
what have you, or increased to pay that down and
get a fresh start. If they've already used that, then
it really is trouble. And if they don't have it
to begin with, that really is trouble because that's the
kind of debt that would take a long time to
pay off.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Well certainly, and you know this we talk about that five.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Trillion in overall debt.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
That also includes stuff like student loans and auto loans,
which we know have gotten pricier as the cars as
the price of cars has gone through the roof.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
I know you need to run, but think of the
three indicators. These are challenges for Donald Trump, all.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Right, home cost, automobile cost, and now cost of debt.
Like the government, the American people are behind the eight ball.
Troubling time.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
And whatever the cut is going to be, it's going
to be painful because those are our core expenses.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
All right.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
The House of Representatives are going to vote today to
avoid a government shutdown. They've got until Friday. We'll be
back with that story in one hour. Good job, Rory,
it's eleven after the hour. I have a couple of
favorite stories today. One is a treat for you. I
know a lot of you were fans of Jim Croche.
You really have to stop and kind of relive nineteen
seventy three. That was a crazy year, and not just
(04:55):
for Jim Crochy, for us the music listeners. I mean,
there is the expression burst onto the scene. This guy
in a matter of year, a year less than by
the end of the year he would will have would
have died in a plane crash. And one year you're
talking seven to nine hits. I lived it as a kid.
(05:17):
It was crazy. I mean, no, sooner were you done singing?
I got a name, And here came Bad bad Leroy Brown,
and here came Time in a bottle, and so on
and so forth, just huge hits, one after the other.
It was an explosion onto the scene of Jim Croche.
And that was back in the days of the midnight special.
Remember Friday night, you'd say up till midnight and see
(05:37):
your favorite artists. I mentioned this later when we talked
to Aj Crochy. I remember three vivid times crying as
a child. One was in my grandfather died. That was
a biggie.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
I still cry over it and it's been fifty five years.
The other was Roberto Clementi's playing Crash and Jim Croci's
and no doubt one of your favorite Jim Croci songs
was Time in a Bottle. Today we're going to talk
to who that song was written about, his son, A J. Croche,
who's out with a new album and on tour. It's
(06:14):
a very very intimate visit with Aj about his music,
about his father, and about his life. Don't miss that
coming up in the second hour. There is a lot
of talk about the Arizona senator visiting. We're going to
do this tomorrow with David Tsanadi, so I don't want
to steal too much of the conversation, but you know,
(06:36):
at some point, if you're brokering a deal to end
a war between Ukraine and Russia, you would think it
would make sense for someone to go to Ukraine, whether
it's the Vice president, whether it's the Secretary of State.
(06:58):
And yet that tactical void is left, and it was
just filled by the Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, And just
as we talked about yesterday with Gavin Newsom being the
first to do a one to eighty and flip, he
chose biological males and women's sports. You know, we said, well,
(07:20):
this is gonna do one of two things. This is
gonna start opening the door for a trend of these
kinds of things. And does it give him some kind
of advantage for being the first to do it? That's
what he's hoping. Now.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
The problem is he can say that in a podcast
that he's created, but he's still governs in the opposite direction.
And that speaks to even if the Democrats do pivot,
will anybody believe it's sincere? And it better get sincere
in a hurry? And they would prove that by working
with the president. But they wouldn't dare work with the
president because they're in obstruction mode, not even opposition mode.
(07:53):
So what to read in to Senator Mark Kelly going
to Ukraine and being a first to do that, to
play upon that old Cold War era sentiment and take
a side against the former Soviet Union in Russia. Probably
gonna do a lot more of that with David Zanati
tomorrow a little bit of it today. I mentioned Tim
(08:14):
Wallas because it's just hilarious. He finally sits down. I
think there was about maybe one hundred or so Democrats
in the crowd, and he's doing this interview with Politico,
and I don't you know, when you start looking at
why did Kamala Harris lose, I don't know how far
down my list you'd have to get to. Well, I
got to talk to Tim Walls first. You see what
(08:35):
Tim says is the reason. I actually have Tim as
part of the reason Kamala is part of the reason.
The biggest reason Democrats in ignoring not only America's reality
and understanding where the American people were thinking and feeling,
but they also ignored their own voters. In twenty sixteen,
(08:57):
when they wanted Bernie, they gave him Hillary. In twenty twenty,
when they wanted Bernie again, they gave him Biden. When
they were done with Biden, they took all of their
votes and just gave him to Kamala.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
That's a big problem.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
And then there's the losing of Hispanic votes that's been
happening over trajectory of a decade and a half. The
black mail vote was a big problem, and then the
one they never saw coming, the youth vote. The campuses
are always the cherry on the whipcream for the Democrats
and swing states.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
They weren't this time.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
So I don't know how far knowledge you have to
get to where anybody cares what Tim Wallace says. But
Tim's like, you know, always been coaching. We were a
pre defense mode and way too defensive. We should have
been much more on the offensive. We should have done
more of those town hall meetings. And all I could
think of is beyond fat, drunk and stupid. It's no
way to go through life. Well, it's funny you would
(09:51):
say that, Tim, because Kamala was at a town hall
on the day you're giving that news conference and proving
so why you didn't do more town halls. This is
Kamala Harris trying to explain innovation. If you can follow
the bouncing ball, you have catlike reflexes.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
So I was willing to give up whatever might be
the trackings of Kamala Harris's particular fondness for not show
chies Dorito's for the sake of getting a big bag
of Dorito's. As I watched the oscars.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
That's the consumer behavior, and that's right. But here's the thing,
at what point do we also.
Speaker 6 (10:42):
Uplift and highlight the consumer's right to also expect.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
And you can debate with me if it should be
a right.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
I think it should to expect that the innovation would
also be weighted in terms of solving their everyday problems,
which are beyond my craving for doritos, but about whatever,
And I know the work is happening around, you know,
(11:10):
a scientific discovery.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Seriously, is she drunk or is she a nut? Either way,
she was a heartbeat and it was a narrow heartbeat
for four years with Joe Biden. I mean, everybody talks
about the cognitive impairment of Joe Biden the day, even
who was really president?
Speaker 2 (11:34):
What was vice president? I mean, is this a nut? Drunk?
Speaker 7 (11:38):
Do you ever.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Anybody that would drunk? Dow you like call you a
friend of get Hamlet people. And by the way, I
have very low tolerance for drunks. But I don't know
why it's sin is said. That's what it would sound
like at times when she was speaking. The friends of
mine that would call me at eleven o'clock at night,
they were hammered beyond measure. Can I show you the
drunk moment, not nut moment is when she goes from
(12:02):
laughing about Dorito's.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Watch the tone and change the tracking.
Speaker 5 (12:08):
Of Kamala Harris, this particular fondness for Natcho.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
She's Dorita.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
Now watch this for the sake of getting a big
bag of Dorito's.
Speaker 6 (12:16):
As I watched the oscars behavior and that's right.
Speaker 8 (12:21):
But here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
But the thing that's very drunk, as shouldn't they It
is very more so than the rest is nuts.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It's odd.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Should we make our talk back of the day, Kamala Harris,
nuts are drunk. Let us know, all right, we got
a lot to kick around today. Three hours to get
this day, connect the dots and understand just one chance
to live. Tuesday, March eleventh, twenty twenty five. This is
your morning show, and this is your day. Miss a
(12:51):
little and you'll miss a lot.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Listen.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
If you and your family are ever in a situation
where you feel threatened, I hope you have a plan,
and I think you need to start with a less
lethal plan.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Here's an example.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Why Brett one of our burner owners, and he's in
the Facebook Burner Owner Group recently posted about how they
were walking their dog an unleashed dog began to attack
them and their dog. He left the situation bloodied, as
was his dog, and he learned a serious lesson. Never
(13:25):
leave home without the burner. You think of self defense
as I'm asleep and somebody enters my home, but we've
seen this with people on hikes with lions attacking him,
walking their dogs in the neighborhood and being attacked by
an unleashed dog. You just never know when you're going
to need a plan and you're going to need a burner.
Legal in all fifty states, no permits or background checks needed.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I own one.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
The Burner Launcher has powerful deterrence tear gas kinetic rounds
with a sixty foot range. One shot can incapacitate an
attacker from up to forty minutes, and with the burner
less lethal, you save two lives. Trusted by over five
hundred government agencies, police departments, and private security firms with
over fourteen thousand, four and a half star reviews, check

Speaker 2 (14:22):

Speaker 1 (14:25):
Where safety meets responsibility and preparation meets peace of mind.
Speaker 4 (14:29):
It's your morning show with Michael Delchano.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
I'm telling you, with the sun not coming up now,
i just feel like I'm doing an overnight show. It's
twenty seven minutes after the hour if you're just waking up.
Marco Rubio says over eighty percent of usaid programs have
been cut.
Speaker 9 (14:46):
In a post on X, Rubio said fifty two hundred
contracts were canceled that would have cost tens of billions
of dollars. The Secretary of State said the contracts didn't
serve the US and harm the nation's national interests in
some cases.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Rubio said the.
Speaker 9 (14:59):
Remaining from MS will now be administered under the State Department.
It comes as Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency continues
to make cuts across the federal government.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
I'm mark Neyfield.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Electricity exports from Ontario, Canada to the US are being
hit with a surcharge.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Brian Shook reports.
Speaker 10 (15:15):
Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced a twenty five percent increase Monday.
Speaker 8 (15:20):
Believe me when I say I do not want to
do this. I feel terrible for the American people because
it's not the American people who started this trade wark
It's one person who's responsible. That's President Trump.
Speaker 10 (15:34):
One point five million Americans in Michigan, Minnesota, and New
York get electricity from Ontario. Ford said, if the US escalates,
then he will not hesitate to shut the electricity off completely.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Yes, that's just the mainstream media's way of letting you
know that there is a Trump narrative in place.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Donald Trump is causing you pain.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
House Minority Leader Hahim Jeffries expects Democrats to vote again
the first spending bill proposed by Republicans, Tammy Triheo reports.
Speaker 11 (16:04):
Jeffrey said during a Monday news conference the bill is
something they could never support.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
House Democrats will not be complicit in the Republican effort
to hurt the American people.
Speaker 11 (16:18):
Yeah that the bill does nothing to protect Social Security, Medicare,
and Medicaid. Republics are expected to bring the bill to
the House floor on Tuesday. Without a new spending bill,
the federal government would shut down on Friday. I'm Tammy Triheo.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Well, it's often said the only thing certain in life
is death and taxes. Today we celebrate people who make
your life easier, and it's not the tax match.
Speaker 12 (16:38):
Today is National Funeral Director and Mortician Day. People who
study death for years and take care of us when
we're gone. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there
are more than twenty four thousand trained death arrangers in
the US, about sixty eight percent men, thirty one percent women.
It's a vital and necessary service. Decidedly low glamour, but
no pushback from the client. I'm pre Tennis and sports.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Griz beat the Suns, Thunder loss to the Nuggets, Warriors
by ten over the Blazers, Kings loss to the Knicks
one thirty three, one oh four, Whiz lost by fifteen
to the Raptors, and the Lakers lost to the Nets
one eleven, one oh eight.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
One game on ice of your.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Morning show Interest, Red Wings lost two to one to
the Senators.
Speaker 13 (17:17):
This is Rebecca in spring Hill, Tennessee, and my morning
show is your Morning Show with Michael Del Jorno.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Hey, Gang, it's me Michael. You can listen to your
morning show Live. Make us a part of your morning
routine or your drive to work companion on great stations
like Talk Radio ninety eight point three and fifteen ten
WLAC in Nashville, Tupelow's News and Talk one oh one
point one and ten sixty wk MQ, and how about
Talk six to fifty KSTE in Sacramento, California. Love to
(17:48):
have you listen live, but are grateful you're here now
for the podcast enjoy.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
What's that? Did you sleeping all last time? I did?
Speaker 1 (17:56):
But I woke up in the mother My alarm went
off in the middle of a dream.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
I have a theory on that. You know it?
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Yes, you know we sleep in sleep cycles. Right, you've
studied that, haven't you.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:04):
That explains a lot about today though. No, but it's
the worst thing you can do is sleep eight hours.
Eight hours would be an uneven sleep cycle. Someone they
always say, get a good eight hours sleep. Don't get
a good eight and a half hours sleep. Now you're
in a sleep cycle. Okay, they go an hour and
a half's And I think I woke up. I know
I was in the middle of like a really deep
dream and the alarm went off, and my alarm is
(18:25):
that one that comes with your phone.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I could make it happen. It's so irritating. Oh that's
what it's for. Yes, well, yeah, I mean that poppers
right off. Yeah, But.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Once you're caught in the middle of a dream, in
the middle of a dream cycle, your day never catches up.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
You ever have a dream about Andrea and you wake
up and you're mad at her because that's her with me?
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Yeah, my wife is constantly having dreams that I'm up
to things I'm not up to well with.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
A body of work.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
And I always say the same thing, how can I
never have those dreams? All right, thirty six minutes after
the hour, if you're just waking up, the opening bell
is going to ring today after a thousand point loss
on the Dow, looking for a rebound, hoping for not
further losses.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
It was a rocky road even for China.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Overnight, Ukraine appears to have carried out its largest drone
attack to date against Russia, and the Vatican says doctors
have lifted their guarded prognosis of Pope Francis there. You know,
I had to, I had to check my my own spirit.
I've been watching Conclave, which is it's a good movie. Yeah, Rafines,
(19:31):
John Lithgow, Stanley Tucci. I didn't know that was Isabella
Rossellini that plays the older nun.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
But she got old.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Not that you know, you should try to look your
best portraying, you know, I mean she's a nun, sure,
but uh, it was just it's a terrific movie. But
it gets you in the mood for a conclave. Okay,
and you know, here we are praying and hoping Pope
Francis gets better, and then I'm watching conclave thinking, but
if he doesn't, this could Yeah, as I finally had
to rebuke myself and move forward. No, he's actually doing well,
(20:04):
and they've lifted the guarded prognosis from Pope Francis, which
is great news.
Speaker 8 (20:08):
Art.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
I got a favorite story. I got to jump right in.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
So there's several narratives, and you're gonna hear it in
the mainstream media. I can't even keep it out of
this show. It's like every story being produced for news
is something negative or uncertain about the economy.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
You're gonna hear people say, oh, we're heading into a recession.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Not even Donald Trump can assure you we're not heading
into a recession with this kind of debt personally and governmental,
we could head into it as a recession. If people
pull back, there's bending reside because that's all they got. Now,
Donald Trump is in a process. I always use this
analogy and it's so lame. But have you ever been
imagined in a hospital, You know, the thing that is
(20:53):
tracking your heart and it goes up, it goes down,
it goes up, it goes.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Down, it goes up.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
What if that was like the old fashioned printers, and
like it just did it in minutes, so it took
a long time between beats, and so it's up, I'm alive.
Oh my god, I'm dead, and you had to wait
a long time to go back up. That's just an
example of overreacting. So the president is busy doing what
two thirds of America wants him to do and more
(21:19):
up during the swamp. What is necessary to ultimately heal
the economy. You can't grow the government and the economy
at the same time. You can't tax people and grow
the economy at the same time with great effectiveness because
taxation is money out of the economy. Tax cuts their
(21:39):
money into the economy. Unless you think it all just
vanishes and what do people do with more of their
money get paid on their debt, They spend as they spend,
businesses grow, what do the businesses do they have to hire?
Then you end up with more people burdened less and
taxation a more effective way of funding government. And he
(22:00):
did it first. Reagan did it, Bush did it but
still outspent it. Trump did it, and then COVID came
and we outspent it. But it works every time. So
he's busy draining the swamp, busy cutting spending, and he's
setting in motion the ability to ultimately create jobs. In manufacturing.
You saw with COVID the ultimate inflation creator. When you
(22:24):
take money you don't have that you're printing and just
give it away by the trillions, not earned and not
for producing something bought. That's the ultimate inflation creator. The
ultimate inflation reducer is not raising interest rates that just
(22:44):
kills you from spending. No, it's manufacturing goods and services
that are sold because of everything that leads up to
that sale, the job creation, the materials that are needed.
These are one hundred layer economic little engines, all spinning,
(23:06):
and the President's building that and unfortunately from scratch after
the last twenty years. Then they're securing the border, and
then there's the goal of ending wars. So it's a
process and somebody's trying to jump in while the tick
is down and say.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
Your heart stopped. No, give it a second, right back up.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
But you're gonna hear these constant narratives all week long.
All you're gonna hear about Wall Street. The stock market
is having the worst start to a presidential term since
two thousand and.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Nine, you know, the glory days of Ababa.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Trump's an economic failure where recessions on the horizon. We're
about to have a government shut down. Did you hear Canada?
They don't want to do it, but they're gonna tear
up the exported electricity from Ontario.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
I mean, it's just it's gonna be endless. Okay.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
I get the game of the left medium. What's the
play for the progressive left? I mean, how do they
come out of this? Okay? I mean you talk about
a catch twenty two for the Democrats. They rail against Doge,
rail against Trump for cutting jobs, which Trump and Musk
(24:32):
would tell you, well, we're really just reducing waste and
abuse and fraud. But if in the end it can
affect ten thousand federal employees who aren't really doing anything.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Again, can't grow government if the.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Best, most secure, highest paying, best benefit jobs or government.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
I got a lot of bad news for your economy.
So they're addressing that.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Okay, So now the Democrats say, well, going, they're costing
federal jobs. What would cost more jobs and put more
federal employees out of work? Are hurting for money more
than a government shutdown? Now see government shutdowns. They don't
ever scare me because I know it won't affect the military.
(25:24):
I know all the little scare tactics they use. I
know it won't affect Social Security and Medicare. It'll just
cut all non essential spending until it's resolved. I'm of
the belief the government never should have been anything but
essential spending. But that's just me. But these non essential agencies.
(25:51):
If the Democrats play their hand too hard, and they
probably should, right, what do they got to lose? As
it is, they can't figure out, you know, opposition versus
obstruction anyway. But in the end, like a parasite, careful
if you do it, and careful if you win, you
(26:11):
would have just killed the host. The Democrat base has
been begging party leadership to fight harder at every turn,
but on most issues, congressional Democrats are powerless in Republican control.
This time they're not. The Republican is going to need
(26:33):
some probably a few in the House, definitely in the Senate.
And if this turns into a government shutdown, if they
listen to the media hype, the drumbeat, Trump has a
Vulnerability's got an Achilles heal. It's the economyounce pounce pounds, eggs, eggs, recession, eggs. Well,
(26:53):
careful if you do it, and you'll wonder how everyone
will react to it. I only say that not as
a shill for Donald Trump, because I'm not not as
a shill from the Republican Party because I'm not even
a member. But I just wonder, knowing the polls we
(27:18):
have seen since Donald Trump took office, how they support
all these efforts, from draining the swamp to cutting spending,
to leveling the playing field and playing long term for
real economic success.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
Will this be seen negatively?
Speaker 1 (27:39):
If the Democrats go too far, it looks like a
no brainer. You finally got the president somewhere where he needs.
You get all you can. But if you're the one
that doesn't want If you're the one that's going to reject, reject,
reject all the way up to Friday, are you gonna
be the one left and holding the bag that costs
the government employees more and even Donald Trump's waste frauden
(28:02):
abuse cuts.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
That's the risky game they're playing. We'll see how it
plays out. It's one of our favorite stories of the day.
My other favorite story, the progressive left is going for
a kill shop. You gotta follow this story and let
the onion kind of unpeel. So we always say it
this way. At best, the Democrats are fighting a two
(28:28):
front war complete obstruction of Donald Trump, a war against Trump.
He is the dictator, he is the devil, he is
the pabot, She's the boogeyman. But the other war is internal.
First of all, I don't even think establishment Democrats even
(28:49):
exist anymore. You have progressive Democrats, and then you have
justice socialist Democrats. That's the AOCS, the Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth
with Warrens, the squad, and they're at war with Democrats.
In fact, come midterms, they won't even be targeting low
hanging Republican fruit.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
They target themselves. I always remind people aoc herself was
recruited and defeated a ten term Democrat in New York.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
There's your proof.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
And they admitted in podcasts that they did it on
purpose because their goal is to take over the party,
then get rid of the electoral College, then dismantle the republic.
But first things first, they've got to destroy their party.
This is why Donald Trump said these people are crazy.
And when it's all said and done, if they succeed,
they're going to be a fringe party at best, And
he's right because they'll just be sixteen percent of what
(29:48):
they've been. But it's a two front war, one against
Republicans and Trump, the other against each other. This is
on that front. Representative aoc her ex chief of staff,
announced his intentions to run in the primary against Nancy
(30:10):
Pelosi in an attempt to redefine the Democrat Party's a
thirty nine year old named Sakat Charabarti. He previously worked
as a in the tech sector and for Bernie Sanders
before joining AOC staff. He announced his candidacy in the
California eleventh District in an ex post which read, I.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Got some news.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
I've decided to run against Nancy Pelosi to represent San
Francisco in Congress. And I know some of you might
be surprised that the speaker Emeritis Pelosi is running again,
but she is for her twenty first term.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
In other words, oh lady.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Stafford went on to describe a riff between the Democrat
Party's older neoliberal leadership and its younger progressive members. I
respect what Nancy Pelosi has accomplished in her career, but
we're living in a total different America than the one
that she knew when she entered politics forty five years ago.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
It's hard to get charms around forty five years ago.
I mean, there's career politician and there's lifelong politician. Where
does he? Where did you come from?
Speaker 14 (31:18):
After Trump victory, when Democrats are about to appoint a
staff communicator representative AOC to the chair of the powerful
Oversight Committee, guess who nixed at Pelosi?
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Guess what the revenge is? Her chiefest staff going back
to California to dceed her at the age of eighty six.
I mean, can you get a better picture? Oh you
shaft owac we send her chief of staff to Unsea you.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Oh girl, baby girl, don't even play.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Don't even play the baby girl. And that is Nancy
Peloti doing our Dutch. Isn't shaking uncontrollably?
Speaker 4 (31:57):
This is your Morning show with Michael del Chrunore.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
Just waking up.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Ukraine appears to have carried out his largest drone attack
to date against Russia.
Speaker 9 (32:06):
Russian officials the over ninety drones were used to target
Moscow in a massive attack that led to the suspension
of train service as well as flights at four airports,
at least when death is being reported. Today's military action
comes as Ukrainian officials are prepared to meet with a
US delegation in Saudi Arabia to seek grounds for possible
peace talks in the war that's now in its fourth year.
(32:27):
It also follows the decision by President Trump to pause
US military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Am Mark Neview, which may have sparked Arizona Senator Mark
Kelly to politically grandstand and go to Ukraine while peace
talks are underway and interfere with them.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
That got Elon Musk to comment he's a trader.
Speaker 10 (32:46):
The Democrat posted photos of his visit on ax On Sunday. Musk,
the tech billionaire who owns x replied to the thread. Kelly,
who's a former Navy pilot and astronaut, responded to Musk, saying,
if you don't understand that defending freedom is a basic
tenet of what makes America great and keeps us safe,
maybe you should leave it to those of us who do.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
President Trump says he wants to finish a border wall
and by the end of his second term.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Lisa Taylor has more.
Speaker 7 (33:16):
Terrell County Sheriff that Eus Cleveland says this should not
be controversial. The Texas border lawman says walls have been
built by both Republican and Democratic presidents.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
President booksh President Obama, and President Trump. They all built
border wall.
Speaker 7 (33:28):
Work is now underway for a new eighteen foot tall
border wall and a rural part of South Texas near
the tip the border patrol set on social media. It
will replace the current six foot tall guard rails, I only,
said Taylor.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
A New York federal judge is temporarily blocking efforts by
the Trump administ administration to deport a student leader of
a recent Prohamas anti Israel demonstration at Columbia University. As
Sara Lee Kessel reports, this News is breaking. His protests
ramp up in the city free buck Boot Kahlil No.
Speaker 13 (33:59):
There were demonstrations on Monday both uptown outside Columbia University
and downtown in Foley Square. Khalil, a Syrian born pro
Palestinian activist, was arrested at a student housing apartment Saturday
night and is being held in an immigration detention center
in Louisiana and a true social post. President Trump signaled
(34:19):
that this is just the beginning of deportations. He said
the Trump administration will not tolerate students who've engaged in
pro terrorist, anti Semitic, anti American activity. Khalil is due
in court on Wednesday. I'm Sarah le Kessler.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
Krispy Kreme Donuts is rolling down the new collection of donuts.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
Just time to celebrate Seat Patty Day.
Speaker 9 (34:41):
The North Carolina based donut chain unveiled four new types
on Monday, including the Pot of Gold Donut. It's an
original glazed donut dipped in caramel, butter cream and gold
glitter sprinkles. Krispy Creme is also giving away a Pot
of Gold pass to random customers on March seventeenth, offering

This is your morning show with Michael Delchny's.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Gonna be that kind of Tuesday. How are we gonna
start with AOC? Well, I got news for you.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
The girl, baby girl she's talking to is Nancy BELOWSI
that later in the show. Hey, everybody, good morning, and
welcome to Tuesday, the eleventh of March. Here of Our Lord,
twenty twenty five on the Aaron streaming live on your
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
This is your morning show, This is your day. House.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Minority leader Hakeem Jeffries expects Democrats to vote against the
spending bill proposed by Republicans, at least the first offering.
The opening bell rings this morning, a day after a
thousand point drop almost in the Dow on Wall Street,
and Ukraine appears to have carried out his largest drone
attack to date against Russia. Meanwhile, Arizona Senator Mark Kelly
(01:27):
goes to Ukraine for a visit that gets Elon Musk
to call him a trader? Is he More on that
coming up? And Tim Walls decided to have a news
conference and Kamala Harris a public appearance. Tim Walls's news
conference with Politico was we played too much prevent defense.
(01:49):
We should have been more aggressive. We should have done
more town halls. This time with Kamala Harris as they're
doing a town hall and the answer to why they
didn't do more town halls. We've been following this since
I started visiting with Roy O'Neal almost. I don't know
what that is now, year and four months ago, just
ten years. You know, there you go again, and then
(02:12):
here's the problem. People believe that you hate me, right,
I know no when I say people, I mean me no.
But we've been following this. Americans just keep racking up
credit cards. Well, now they reach the three three trillion mark.
What does that mean?
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Yeah, and five point one trillion in overall consumer debt,
and some are saying, oh, we might finally start to
see some cracks here that the consumer can't take on
too much more.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
And that's the big concern because the consumer has.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Been keeping this economy alive really for the past five years,
since the pandemic threw just about everything out of whack.
But the fact that the credit card debt keeps on
mounting up eight percent year over year, that means that
more Americans just can't seem to make ends meet. And
if we start to pull back on spending, well, then
that could really tip the economy over the edge.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
And there's this narrative going on right now that Donald
Trump's creating a lot of uncertainty, and to some degree
at this stage of the process he is. But you know,
if things, you know, stay uncertain and people are this
much in debt, yeah, that makes you start peaking at
the word recession.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
If things start to collapse. You know what, we can't
see that.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
I wish we could how much of these trillions of
dollars of credit card debt, you know, is after they've
done helocks. In other words, people have obviously been paying
for inflation with credit cards and buying on debt. But
you know, their only recourse was in the past use
(03:44):
the value of their home that may have doubled or
what have you, or increased to pay that down and
get a fresh start. If they've already used that, then
it really is trouble. And if they don't have it
to begin with, that really is trouble because that's the
kind of debt that would take a long time to
pay off.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Well certainly, and you know this we talk about that five.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Trillion in overall debt.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
That also includes stuff like student loans and auto loans,
which we know have gotten pricier as the cars as
the price of cars has gone through the roof.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
I know you need to run, but think of the
three indicators. These are challenges for Donald Trump, all.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Right, home cost, automobile cost, and now cost of debt.
Like the government, the American people are behind the eight ball.
Troubling time.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
And whatever the cut is going to be, it's going
to be painful because those are our core expenses.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
All right.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
The House of Representatives are going to vote today to
avoid a government shutdown. They've got until Friday. We'll be
back with that story in one hour. Good job, Rory,
it's eleven after the hour. I have a couple of
favorite stories today. One is a treat for you. I
know a lot of you were fans of Jim Croche.
You really have to stop and kind of relive nineteen
seventy three. That was a crazy year, and not just
(04:55):
for Jim Crochy, for us the music listeners. I mean,
there is the expression burst onto the scene. This guy
in a matter of year, a year less than by
the end of the year he would will have would
have died in a plane crash. And one year you're
talking seven to nine hits. I lived it as a kid.
(05:17):
It was crazy. I mean, no, sooner were you done singing?
I got a name, And here came Bad bad Leroy Brown,
and here came Time in a bottle, and so on
and so forth, just huge hits, one after the other.
It was an explosion onto the scene of Jim Croche.
And that was back in the days of the midnight special.
Remember Friday night, you'd say up till midnight and see
(05:37):
your favorite artists. I mentioned this later when we talked
to Aj Crochy. I remember three vivid times crying as
a child. One was in my grandfather died. That was
a biggie.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
I still cry over it and it's been fifty five years.
The other was Roberto Clementi's playing Crash and Jim Croci's
and no doubt one of your favorite Jim Croci songs
was Time in a Bottle. Today we're going to talk
to who that song was written about, his son, A J. Croche,
who's out with a new album and on tour. It's
(06:14):
a very very intimate visit with Aj about his music,
about his father, and about his life. Don't miss that
coming up in the second hour. There is a lot
of talk about the Arizona senator visiting. We're going to
do this tomorrow with David Tsanadi, so I don't want
to steal too much of the conversation, but you know,
(06:36):
at some point, if you're brokering a deal to end
a war between Ukraine and Russia, you would think it
would make sense for someone to go to Ukraine, whether
it's the Vice president, whether it's the Secretary of State.
(06:58):
And yet that tactical void is left, and it was
just filled by the Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, And just
as we talked about yesterday with Gavin Newsom being the
first to do a one to eighty and flip, he
chose biological males and women's sports. You know, we said, well,
(07:20):
this is gonna do one of two things. This is
gonna start opening the door for a trend of these
kinds of things. And does it give him some kind
of advantage for being the first to do it? That's
what he's hoping. Now.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
The problem is he can say that in a podcast
that he's created, but he's still governs in the opposite direction.
And that speaks to even if the Democrats do pivot,
will anybody believe it's sincere? And it better get sincere
in a hurry? And they would prove that by working
with the president. But they wouldn't dare work with the
president because they're in obstruction mode, not even opposition mode.
(07:53):
So what to read in to Senator Mark Kelly going
to Ukraine and being a first to do that, to
play upon that old Cold War era sentiment and take
a side against the former Soviet Union in Russia. Probably
gonna do a lot more of that with David Zanati
tomorrow a little bit of it today. I mentioned Tim
(08:14):
Wallas because it's just hilarious. He finally sits down. I
think there was about maybe one hundred or so Democrats
in the crowd, and he's doing this interview with Politico,
and I don't you know, when you start looking at
why did Kamala Harris lose, I don't know how far
down my list you'd have to get to. Well, I
got to talk to Tim Walls first. You see what
(08:35):
Tim says is the reason. I actually have Tim as
part of the reason Kamala is part of the reason.
The biggest reason Democrats in ignoring not only America's reality
and understanding where the American people were thinking and feeling,
but they also ignored their own voters. In twenty sixteen,
(08:57):
when they wanted Bernie, they gave him Hillary. In twenty twenty,
when they wanted Bernie again, they gave him Biden. When
they were done with Biden, they took all of their
votes and just gave him to Kamala.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
That's a big problem.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
And then there's the losing of Hispanic votes that's been
happening over trajectory of a decade and a half. The
black mail vote was a big problem, and then the
one they never saw coming, the youth vote. The campuses
are always the cherry on the whipcream for the Democrats
and swing states.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
They weren't this time.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
So I don't know how far knowledge you have to
get to where anybody cares what Tim Wallace says. But
Tim's like, you know, always been coaching. We were a
pre defense mode and way too defensive. We should have
been much more on the offensive. We should have done
more of those town hall meetings. And all I could
think of is beyond fat, drunk and stupid. It's no
way to go through life. Well, it's funny you would
(09:51):
say that, Tim, because Kamala was at a town hall
on the day you're giving that news conference and proving
so why you didn't do more town halls. This is
Kamala Harris trying to explain innovation. If you can follow
the bouncing ball, you have catlike reflexes.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
So I was willing to give up whatever might be
the trackings of Kamala Harris's particular fondness for not show
chies Dorito's for the sake of getting a big bag
of Dorito's. As I watched the oscars.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
That's the consumer behavior, and that's right. But here's the thing,
at what point do we also.
Speaker 6 (10:42):
Uplift and highlight the consumer's right to also expect.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
And you can debate with me if it should be
a right.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
I think it should to expect that the innovation would
also be weighted in terms of solving their everyday problems,
which are beyond my craving for doritos, but about whatever,
And I know the work is happening around, you know,
(11:10):
a scientific discovery.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Seriously, is she drunk or is she a nut? Either way,
she was a heartbeat and it was a narrow heartbeat
for four years with Joe Biden. I mean, everybody talks
about the cognitive impairment of Joe Biden the day, even
who was really president?
Speaker 2 (11:34):
What was vice president? I mean, is this a nut? Drunk?
Speaker 7 (11:38):
Do you ever.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Anybody that would drunk? Dow you like call you a
friend of get Hamlet people. And by the way, I
have very low tolerance for drunks. But I don't know
why it's sin is said. That's what it would sound
like at times when she was speaking. The friends of
mine that would call me at eleven o'clock at night,
they were hammered beyond measure. Can I show you the
drunk moment, not nut moment is when she goes from
(12:02):
laughing about Dorito's.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Watch the tone and change the tracking.
Speaker 5 (12:08):
Of Kamala Harris, this particular fondness for Natcho.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
She's Dorita.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
Now watch this for the sake of getting a big
bag of Dorito's.
Speaker 6 (12:16):
As I watched the oscars behavior and that's right.
Speaker 8 (12:21):
But here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
But the thing that's very drunk, as shouldn't they It
is very more so than the rest is nuts.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It's odd.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Should we make our talk back of the day, Kamala Harris,
nuts are drunk. Let us know, all right, we got
a lot to kick around today. Three hours to get
this day, connect the dots and understand just one chance
to live. Tuesday, March eleventh, twenty twenty five. This is
your morning show, and this is your day. Miss a
(12:51):
little and you'll miss a lot.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Listen.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
If you and your family are ever in a situation
where you feel threatened, I hope you have a plan,
and I think you need to start with a less
lethal plan.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Here's an example.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Why Brett one of our burner owners, and he's in
the Facebook Burner Owner Group recently posted about how they
were walking their dog an unleashed dog began to attack
them and their dog. He left the situation bloodied, as
was his dog, and he learned a serious lesson. Never
(13:25):
leave home without the burner. You think of self defense
as I'm asleep and somebody enters my home, but we've
seen this with people on hikes with lions attacking him,
walking their dogs in the neighborhood and being attacked by
an unleashed dog. You just never know when you're going
to need a plan and you're going to need a burner.
Legal in all fifty states, no permits or background checks needed.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I own one.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
The Burner Launcher has powerful deterrence tear gas kinetic rounds
with a sixty foot range. One shot can incapacitate an
attacker from up to forty minutes, and with the burner
less lethal, you save two lives. Trusted by over five
hundred government agencies, police departments, and private security firms with

Speaker 4 (14:29):
It's your morning show with Michael Delchano.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
I'm telling you, with the sun not coming up now,
i just feel like I'm doing an overnight show. It's
twenty seven minutes after the hour if you're just waking up.
Marco Rubio says over eighty percent of usaid programs have
been cut.
Speaker 9 (14:46):
In a post on X, Rubio said fifty two hundred
contracts were canceled that would have cost tens of billions
of dollars. The Secretary of State said the contracts didn't
serve the US and harm the nation's national interests in
some cases.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Rubio said the.
Speaker 9 (14:59):
Remaining from MS will now be administered under the State Department.
It comes as Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency continues
to make cuts across the federal government.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
I'm mark Neyfield.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Electricity exports from Ontario, Canada to the US are being
hit with a surcharge.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Brian Shook reports.
Speaker 10 (15:15):
Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced a twenty five percent increase Monday.
Speaker 8 (15:20):
Believe me when I say I do not want to
do this. I feel terrible for the American people because
it's not the American people who started this trade wark
It's one person who's responsible. That's President Trump.
Speaker 10 (15:34):
One point five million Americans in Michigan, Minnesota, and New
York get electricity from Ontario. Ford said, if the US escalates,
then he will not hesitate to shut the electricity off completely.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Yes, that's just the mainstream media's way of letting you
know that there is a Trump narrative in place.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Donald Trump is causing you pain.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
House Minority Leader Hahim Jeffries expects Democrats to vote again
the first spending bill proposed by Republicans, Tammy Triheo reports.
Speaker 11 (16:04):
Jeffrey said during a Monday news conference the bill is
something they could never support.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
House Democrats will not be complicit in the Republican effort
to hurt the American people.
Speaker 11 (16:18):
Yeah that the bill does nothing to protect Social Security, Medicare,
and Medicaid. Republics are expected to bring the bill to
the House floor on Tuesday. Without a new spending bill,
the federal government would shut down on Friday. I'm Tammy Triheo.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Well, it's often said the only thing certain in life
is death and taxes. Today we celebrate people who make
your life easier, and it's not the tax match.
Speaker 12 (16:38):
Today is National Funeral Director and Mortician Day. People who
study death for years and take care of us when
we're gone. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there
are more than twenty four thousand trained death arrangers in
the US, about sixty eight percent men, thirty one percent women.
It's a vital and necessary service. Decidedly low glamour, but
no pushback from the client. I'm pre Tennis and sports.

Speaker 2 (17:53):
What's that? Did you sleeping all last time? I did?
Speaker 1 (17:56):
But I woke up in the mother My alarm went
off in the middle of a dream.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
I have a theory on that. You know it?
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Yes, you know we sleep in sleep cycles. Right, you've
studied that, haven't you.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:04):
That explains a lot about today though. No, but it's
the worst thing you can do is sleep eight hours.
Eight hours would be an uneven sleep cycle. Someone they
always say, get a good eight hours sleep. Don't get
a good eight and a half hours sleep. Now you're
in a sleep cycle. Okay, they go an hour and
a half's And I think I woke up. I know
I was in the middle of like a really deep
dream and the alarm went off, and my alarm is
(18:25):
that one that comes with your phone.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I could make it happen. It's so irritating. Oh that's
what it's for. Yes, well, yeah, I mean that poppers
right off. Yeah, But.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Once you're caught in the middle of a dream, in
the middle of a dream cycle, your day never catches up.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
You ever have a dream about Andrea and you wake
up and you're mad at her because that's her with me?
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Yeah, my wife is constantly having dreams that I'm up
to things I'm not up to well with.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
A body of work.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
And I always say the same thing, how can I
never have those dreams? All right, thirty six minutes after
the hour, if you're just waking up, the opening bell
is going to ring today after a thousand point loss
on the Dow, looking for a rebound, hoping for not
further losses.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
It was a rocky road even for China.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Overnight, Ukraine appears to have carried out its largest drone
attack to date against Russia, and the Vatican says doctors
have lifted their guarded prognosis of Pope Francis there. You know,
I had to, I had to check my my own spirit.
I've been watching Conclave, which is it's a good movie. Yeah, Rafines,
(19:31):
John Lithgow, Stanley Tucci. I didn't know that was Isabella
Rossellini that plays the older nun.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
But she got old.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Not that you know, you should try to look your
best portraying, you know, I mean she's a nun, sure,
but uh, it was just it's a terrific movie. But
it gets you in the mood for a conclave. Okay,
and you know, here we are praying and hoping Pope
Francis gets better, and then I'm watching conclave thinking, but
if he doesn't, this could Yeah, as I finally had
to rebuke myself and move forward. No, he's actually doing well,
(20:04):
and they've lifted the guarded prognosis from Pope Francis, which
is great news.
Speaker 8 (20:08):
Art.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
I got a favorite story. I got to jump right in.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
So there's several narratives, and you're gonna hear it in
the mainstream media. I can't even keep it out of
this show. It's like every story being produced for news
is something negative or uncertain about the economy.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
You're gonna hear people say, oh, we're heading into a recession.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Not even Donald Trump can assure you we're not heading
into a recession with this kind of debt personally and governmental,
we could head into it as a recession. If people
pull back, there's bending reside because that's all they got. Now,
Donald Trump is in a process. I always use this
analogy and it's so lame. But have you ever been
imagined in a hospital, You know, the thing that is
(20:53):
tracking your heart and it goes up, it goes down,
it goes up, it goes.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Down, it goes up.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
What if that was like the old fashioned printers, and
like it just did it in minutes, so it took
a long time between beats, and so it's up, I'm alive.
Oh my god, I'm dead, and you had to wait
a long time to go back up. That's just an
example of overreacting. So the president is busy doing what
two thirds of America wants him to do and more
(21:19):
up during the swamp. What is necessary to ultimately heal
the economy. You can't grow the government and the economy
at the same time. You can't tax people and grow
the economy at the same time with great effectiveness because
taxation is money out of the economy. Tax cuts their
(21:39):
money into the economy. Unless you think it all just
vanishes and what do people do with more of their
money get paid on their debt, They spend as they spend,
businesses grow, what do the businesses do they have to hire?
Then you end up with more people burdened less and
taxation a more effective way of funding government. And he
(22:00):
did it first. Reagan did it, Bush did it but
still outspent it. Trump did it, and then COVID came
and we outspent it. But it works every time. So
he's busy draining the swamp, busy cutting spending, and he's
setting in motion the ability to ultimately create jobs. In manufacturing.
You saw with COVID the ultimate inflation creator. When you
(22:24):
take money you don't have that you're printing and just
give it away by the trillions, not earned and not
for producing something bought. That's the ultimate inflation creator. The
ultimate inflation reducer is not raising interest rates that just
(22:44):
kills you from spending. No, it's manufacturing goods and services
that are sold because of everything that leads up to
that sale, the job creation, the materials that are needed.
These are one hundred layer economic little engines, all spinning,
(23:06):
and the President's building that and unfortunately from scratch after
the last twenty years. Then they're securing the border, and
then there's the goal of ending wars. So it's a
process and somebody's trying to jump in while the tick
is down and say.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
Your heart stopped. No, give it a second, right back up.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
But you're gonna hear these constant narratives all week long.
All you're gonna hear about Wall Street. The stock market
is having the worst start to a presidential term since
two thousand and.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Nine, you know, the glory days of Ababa.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Trump's an economic failure where recessions on the horizon. We're
about to have a government shut down. Did you hear Canada?
They don't want to do it, but they're gonna tear
up the exported electricity from Ontario.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
I mean, it's just it's gonna be endless. Okay.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
I get the game of the left medium. What's the
play for the progressive left? I mean, how do they
come out of this? Okay? I mean you talk about
a catch twenty two for the Democrats. They rail against Doge,
rail against Trump for cutting jobs, which Trump and Musk
(24:32):
would tell you, well, we're really just reducing waste and
abuse and fraud. But if in the end it can
affect ten thousand federal employees who aren't really doing anything.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Again, can't grow government if the.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Best, most secure, highest paying, best benefit jobs or government.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
I got a lot of bad news for your economy.
So they're addressing that.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Okay, So now the Democrats say, well, going, they're costing
federal jobs. What would cost more jobs and put more
federal employees out of work? Are hurting for money more
than a government shutdown? Now see government shutdowns. They don't
ever scare me because I know it won't affect the military.
(25:24):
I know all the little scare tactics they use. I
know it won't affect Social Security and Medicare. It'll just
cut all non essential spending until it's resolved. I'm of
the belief the government never should have been anything but
essential spending. But that's just me. But these non essential agencies.
(25:51):
If the Democrats play their hand too hard, and they
probably should, right, what do they got to lose? As
it is, they can't figure out, you know, opposition versus
obstruction anyway. But in the end, like a parasite, careful
if you do it, and careful if you win, you
(26:11):
would have just killed the host. The Democrat base has
been begging party leadership to fight harder at every turn,
but on most issues, congressional Democrats are powerless in Republican control.
This time they're not. The Republican is going to need
(26:33):
some probably a few in the House, definitely in the Senate.
And if this turns into a government shutdown, if they
listen to the media hype, the drumbeat, Trump has a
Vulnerability's got an Achilles heal. It's the economyounce pounce pounds, eggs, eggs, recession, eggs. Well,
(26:53):
careful if you do it, and you'll wonder how everyone
will react to it. I only say that not as
a shill for Donald Trump, because I'm not not as
a shill from the Republican Party because I'm not even
a member. But I just wonder, knowing the polls we
(27:18):
have seen since Donald Trump took office, how they support
all these efforts, from draining the swamp to cutting spending,
to leveling the playing field and playing long term for
real economic success.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
Will this be seen negatively?
Speaker 1 (27:39):
If the Democrats go too far, it looks like a
no brainer. You finally got the president somewhere where he needs.
You get all you can. But if you're the one
that doesn't want If you're the one that's going to reject, reject,
reject all the way up to Friday, are you gonna
be the one left and holding the bag that costs
the government employees more and even Donald Trump's waste frauden
(28:02):
abuse cuts.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
That's the risky game they're playing. We'll see how it
plays out. It's one of our favorite stories of the day.
My other favorite story, the progressive left is going for
a kill shop. You gotta follow this story and let
the onion kind of unpeel. So we always say it
this way. At best, the Democrats are fighting a two
(28:28):
front war complete obstruction of Donald Trump, a war against Trump.
He is the dictator, he is the devil, he is
the pabot, She's the boogeyman. But the other war is internal.
First of all, I don't even think establishment Democrats even
(28:49):
exist anymore. You have progressive Democrats, and then you have
justice socialist Democrats. That's the AOCS, the Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth
with Warrens, the squad, and they're at war with Democrats.
In fact, come midterms, they won't even be targeting low
hanging Republican fruit.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
They target themselves. I always remind people aoc herself was
recruited and defeated a ten term Democrat in New York.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
There's your proof.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
And they admitted in podcasts that they did it on
purpose because their goal is to take over the party,
then get rid of the electoral College, then dismantle the republic.
But first things first, they've got to destroy their party.
This is why Donald Trump said these people are crazy.
And when it's all said and done, if they succeed,
they're going to be a fringe party at best, And
he's right because they'll just be sixteen percent of what
(29:48):
they've been. But it's a two front war, one against
Republicans and Trump, the other against each other. This is
on that front. Representative aoc her ex chief of staff,
announced his intentions to run in the primary against Nancy
(30:10):
Pelosi in an attempt to redefine the Democrat Party's a
thirty nine year old named Sakat Charabarti. He previously worked
as a in the tech sector and for Bernie Sanders
before joining AOC staff. He announced his candidacy in the
California eleventh District in an ex post which read, I.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Got some news.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
I've decided to run against Nancy Pelosi to represent San
Francisco in Congress. And I know some of you might
be surprised that the speaker Emeritis Pelosi is running again,
but she is for her twenty first term.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
In other words, oh lady.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Stafford went on to describe a riff between the Democrat
Party's older neoliberal leadership and its younger progressive members. I
respect what Nancy Pelosi has accomplished in her career, but
we're living in a total different America than the one
that she knew when she entered politics forty five years ago.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
It's hard to get charms around forty five years ago.
I mean, there's career politician and there's lifelong politician. Where
does he? Where did you come from?
Speaker 14 (31:18):
After Trump victory, when Democrats are about to appoint a
staff communicator representative AOC to the chair of the powerful
Oversight Committee, guess who nixed at Pelosi?
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Guess what the revenge is? Her chiefest staff going back
to California to dceed her at the age of eighty six.
I mean, can you get a better picture? Oh you
shaft owac we send her chief of staff to Unsea you.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Oh girl, baby girl, don't even play.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Don't even play the baby girl. And that is Nancy
Peloti doing our Dutch. Isn't shaking uncontrollably?

comes as Ukrainian officials are prepared to meet with a
US delegation in Saudi Arabia to seek grounds for possible
peace talks in the war that's now in its fourth year.
(32:27):
It also follows the decision by President Trump to pause
US military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Am Mark Neview, which may have sparked Arizona Senator Mark
Kelly to politically grandstand and go to Ukraine while peace
talks are underway and interfere with them.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
That got Elon Musk to comment he's a trader.
Speaker 10 (32:46):
The Democrat posted photos of his visit on ax On Sunday. Musk,
the tech billionaire who owns x replied to the thread. Kelly,
who's a former Navy pilot and astronaut, responded to Musk, saying,
if you don't understand that defending freedom is a basic
tenet of what makes America great and keeps us safe,
maybe you should leave it to those of us who do.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 1 (33:09):

Palestinian activist, was arrested at a student housing apartment Saturday
night and is being held in an immigration detention center
in Louisiana and a true social post. President Trump signaled
(34:19):
