98 segmentsThis is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed human. Bill, why is my eye twitching? Does this mean I'm in perimenopause? Where's my phone? Juliana, maybe we can ask an actual human. Yes, because I have questions. And I bet you do too. Like, is it normal to sleep in separate bedrooms? We do that. And I still need to know why my poop's been green. We've got actual people answering these exact questions. Listen to Bill and Juliana. The podcast. On the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your podcast. I'm Stephanie Young. The hit podcast Love Trapped is back with new updates in the case of Laura Owens. This is CR 2025 State versus Laura Owens. I think she really believes that she still hasn't out. I'm quite confident that they're up to something. We're following the case live as the criminal charges finally come to a conclusion. Trust us when we tell you as the victims of Laura Owens, she will not stop. Listen to Love Trapped on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi, it's Michael. Your morning show airs live, 5 to 8 a.m. Central, 6 to 9 Eastern, and great cities like Memphis, Tennessee, Tulsa, Oklahoma, Sacramento, California. We'd love to be a part of your morning routine. But we're happier here now. Enjoy the podcast. 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 Del Turner. Those are nice picks, Mike. We love the bills, and we absolutely love the under Sunday night for the fans game. Book it. Am I the only one? First of all, two things I'd like to acknowledge. Seven minutes after the hour on the air and streaming live on your iHeart app. This is your kitchen table, America. This is your morning show. And I'm honored to serve you. I'm Michael Del Turner. Two things. I make a comment about the Fig Newton being my favorite cookie. Oh. And then that launched you two into a five-minute tirade over how awful Fig Newton's are. I didn't say they were your favorite cookie. No, you didn't. Then I'm hearing about white, blonde Oreos. Yeah, I love Fig Newton's. You do love Fig Newton? I love Figures. Oh, I can't tell you. But no, they are not good for you. They are the worst. I mean, when you read the calorie count, and I used to eat them by the sleeve. Oh, I love a Fig Newton. All right. And then I was just thinking, why is Big John quiet over my picks? But did you catch the subtlety of that? What's not? Play Big John again. Those are nice picks, Mike. Those are nice picks, Mike. All right. The Bills was the one I put a better gut feeling than you. I put an asterisk by the Bills because I think that's a lot of my wishing and hoping and heart.
I said it was my least comment. No, my locks are the Bears plus four, San Francisco plus seven, and New England minus three. He didn't even comment on those. All right, keep track of me and Big John. He likes the under and the Bears and Buffalo plus one and a half. And keep track of mine, Buffalo, San Francisco, New England, and the Bears. Let's see who does better on Monday. All right, we still have a home problem. I think we kind of have an automobile problem. I mean, when you start financing cars. for 10 years, that's a problem. But pending home sales hit their lowest level on record outside of the pandemic as Americans find themselves underwater on car loans. Rory, these are not Friday good news stories. I was trying to keep things positive. Thanks for raining on our fun Friday parade. Here I come. Storm cloud Rory. Rory in the hurricanes. That's a whole beetle story. Yeah, so the numbers from Redfin show that pending home sales dropped almost 6% month over month in December. But what's interesting, they describe the housing buyer, the home buyer, as skittish in terms of, look, some places we are seeing home prices come down, especially condo and townhouse prices. And we're also like on the verge of perhaps seeing mortgage rates come down. So I think the analyst essentially says that a lot of people are on standby, just waiting to pounce. eager to get in there, but thinking the numbers are going to move. So they're just waiting to see what happens. You missed earlier in the platinum hour, the first hour. I talked about how I was just talking to God about the Bears. And, you know, we started going through some memories of going to Bears games. And so then I just kind of asked him, could you make a cold? That would probably hurt the Rams. And the next thing you know, we got an Arctic freeze sprawling the Midwest to the Mid-Atlantic. I cursed it. I have asked God. that one day he would lead me to a condominium in Florida. And if it was possible that I would go outside about my front door and find out I live next door to you. So I'm coming to haunt you. So condo sales, doing okay. Everything else is a little skittish. What's bad in the car front? We're underwater. Now you've got me praying. Well, that was the real goal. Yeah, then here's the car thing. A report from Edmonds finds almost a third of trade-ins, the owner hasn't paid it off yet. And they owe about $7,200 on that car that they're trading in. So right now, the average, average car price just topped $50,000. Now you're adding $7,200 that you're still got to fold into that new car payment. So a lot of people stretching out those terms, as you said, the 10-year car payment is out there with people still determined to buy when maybe they should be over at the use car lot. Eggs. Well, that's the bottom line. My wife and I had a fascinating conversation about leases. And you can put a lot of money down on a lease to bring the payment down. You leave that lot and you get an accident and it's totaled, that money's gone.
So, yeah, you know, I mean, so it was a fun conversation, but you can't, I mean, cars cost what houses used to. We're financing them for the length of time we used to finance houses. The problem is one traditionally appreciates the other depreciates. This upside down thing's going to become a much bigger factor in the years to come. We'll keep following that. We're always going to be back in the third hour. The president threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act what that means. Will that can end things in Minneapolis or will that incite things to even further violence in Minneapolis? Well, that just depends if you're looking at sensible reality or narrative. Narrative-wise, it would be insightful, inciting, I should say. All right, I appreciate that very much. I have a very dear friend here who happens to just so happens to be a CEO of the American Policy Roundtable presides over iBoters.com. and is the co-host of, or host of the Public Square heard on 200 stations. He's also one of my dearest friends, and I have to tell you, David Chou, I did yourself, I think I have my favorite shirt of my life. And you ought to see how, your mic's off, by the way, and you ought to see how wonderful I look. I don't know if it's the PhD weight loss, if it's the quality. And how Johnny O pulled this off, I don't know. But he's the guy to wear now. Thank you. I don't know where that came from, but I needed that this week. You're welcome. Any pick me up you can get this week. Yeah, I've got one myself and I love it. And yes, it's got the Orlando logo on it. So that's pretty cool. That's very cool. All right, so two things. One, I just did in the platinum hour. If you'd have tapped me on the shoulder seven, eight years ago and said, what do you think of? John Fetterman, what do you think of Bill Marr? You'd get a completely different answer than you'd get today. Every time I see John Fetterman, I want to hug him. As I've said, he has entered the Villadorosa walk of perdition that I've only seen people like Congressman Scott Desjarlay walk. I mean, it takes great courage. Steve Largent, same way. Steve Largent, I mean, the courage to bust out of this matrix bubble and speak truth. And now I find myself. searching for what Bill Maher is saying. And, you know, these are people that get the real problem, death of journalism, the real problem, the narrative matrix. And they're speaking courageously. I mean, just, I don't know if you heard the Bill Maher one, but he just breaks down and describes death of journalism like we've been describing for the last four years. in a funny way, which is his job, but also in a very powerful way. Because the toughest question people ask me, and I don't know if it's true for you, where can I trust getting my news? And the answer is nowhere. Boy, I'm sorry, I'm going to do it. I wasn't planning on it, but I've got to. The first thing that comes to my mind is man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God. That's an Old Testament and New Testament idea. The concept being if we don't have something that's bigger than ourselves from the realm of idea and words and truth coming into our spirits, who do you, you don't have anything because the truth is, Michael, it's always been this way. There's nobody you can trust. And it's worse now than it has ever been. But the scripture you just use and the concept you just use, I believe discernment is a gift and some have it, you know, proportioned differently.
But that's what creates a natural discernment in you. I've always used this analogy, and I think you'll appreciate it. One day I looked at my brother fascinated about, you know, how do you keep track of all these coins? And how do you keep track of all the fakes? And he looked at me, he goes, I don't study the fakes. I study the real. And then the fakes are apparent. Isn't that? Because that's what we do every day, right? I read, doesn't matter if it's names you trust and Fox would be an easy one. Or names you don't trust and MSNBC and CNN would be a good one. I don't like any of them. So kind of what Red and I, and I think you do for your team at the public square, we read everything, and it takes a lot of time. And what we're really doing is, all right, this is the right, I'm defining. This is what the right's narrativizing this is. This is what the left's narrativizing. Then we go through the facts, and then we discern, and we have to find the truth. There's nobody just reporting it. No, and Michael, there's a lot of reasons for this. You know, at the risk of you being called and overusing word person of the matrix. Well, thank you for at least being sensitive. Red isn't. I'll take full responsibility for that. There's so many components that have brought us to where we are today. Not the least of wish is the education system. If you, and I study our team's studies, every time we get an article, it doesn't matter where it comes from right, left or middle. Who's the author? What's the author's background? And if the author's background is basically that of the traditional pattern of went to high school, went to college, got a degree in journalism, and started, you know, schlepping papers in podunk nowhere to work their way up to be a person who is qualified to write about reality. Well, being qualified because you're a writer doesn't mean you've lived life enough to understand what you're writing about. And that's the fundamental problem, particularly if you've been propagandized through Columbia University or so many of the other places of Syracuse and others where you've been basically converted into a leftward thinking person philosophically fitting into a niche that may go back 3,000 years in history. And you don't even know what the origins are of the thinking that you have because we haven't learned how to think. We haven't learned what's truth. We haven't learned how to trust one another in communication. And so now you're just basically writing for your boss. You're writing for your audience. Like you used to write for your professor. And if you dared take a different angle than their worldview, it would cost you a grade. I mean, it just ingrains in you how to sell a narrative. I mean, that's the most powerful thing Bill Maher said. The minute news became for profit. They're not about. telling you what's happening. They're about reinforcing your views. Well, and now that's a key point. That's a really shorthand when the minute the news became for profit, because the nonprofit news sources, some of them are worse. They're the worst, yeah. But the point he's making is when it became corporatized. Right. When news became the lost leader, the same way that a grocery store will have milk and bread as a loss leader, to get you in to tell you something else.
That's when we really got into trouble. Interesting. We've been talking about death of journalism to the point where people are sick of hearing those words or Matrix. And David did something awful while he was sick. He revisited the Matrix movies. Just watch the Matrix. Watch the circle. Everything will make sense. But would you have ever thought John Fetterman and Bill Marr? I can't say Ted Cruz is talking about this. I can't say Marco Rubio is talking about. I can say Karoline Leavitt is talking about this. But no one has described it better than Bill Maher. I find a great deal of hope in that. So do I. And I find there's great reasons for hope because it's our dear friend, I sure Alan told us over the holidays. And we thought he was crazy. Yeah, human nature hasn't changed. It's not likely to do so. And God hasn't given up on the earth. We're still in the same fight we've been in for thousands of years. The difference is today we have pseudo knowledge. We walk around feeling that we know what we know. But when we actually get tested on it, we realize that by and large, we don't. And most people in America are on autopilot. It's such a beautiful country. You can actually pay no attention to politics, but for 15 minutes every two years on a major election and still maintain your citizenship. Problem is you can't maintain the government that way or a republic. David Sinati is joining us, CEO of the American Policy Roundtable. When we come back, American voters, I don't know whether to do this, just a technical thing in transparency for the listeners, if I play a piece of audio. David can't hear it for 50 seconds. That doesn't work in live radio. So I'm going to play it for you later when we do sounds of the day. I'll probably summarize it for David. But we know that Americans are becoming more and more independent, less and less dependent on the two-party system. But they still have liens. And their makeup has changed. So while you would say, oh, thank God, 48% of Americans are now independent, well, what does that leave for Democrats? So the party itself has shifted far left. It brings up a concept and follow me on this because this is a big thing. I think we ought to, maybe we should get a whiteboard like Glenn has. But you would want to put this on a whiteboard and keep it behind you and keep an eye on it. The right is getting more right. The left is getting more less, more left. And while number looks like, well, we're getting less divided because we're less two-party. No, we're just as divided or more divided than never, just not over party lines and partisan divide. So are we about to become more of the divided people of America? Then the divided states of America, chew on that. It's a big question. And I think it's our future. Everyone forgets things now and then. Stephen Miller, for one, earlier in the show. Could be a name, could be a word. Could be why you walked into a room. It happens to all of us.

This is your morning show with Michael Del Chono. Hey, yo, Mike, don't pay no attention to them guys. They don't know what they're talking about. Have a Fig Newton, baby, and a cup of coffee. I like a fig Newton with a cup of coffee. I don't get it, soften it. 28 minutes after the hour. Our question of the day for David Sinati is really a glimpse of our future that's coming up. But I just have to acknowledge that David is kind of taking our... show themes a little too seriously. He actually moved his studio into the kitchen. You are really the only one that is not figuratively, but literally at the kitchen table this morning. At the kitchen table. Yeah, that's right. It just dawned to me. Somebody's got to do this because this is exactly what your vision was. Your morning show. We sit together at the kitchen table. Some of us have, you know, got shirt and tie on ready to go out the door. Others are getting ready for their day. But I picture that. I picture the guy coming down the stairs later and down in their bathrobe. Right. But we got to figure this stuff out. And we get to start first thing in the morning doing that. What a refreshing difference. Yeah, really. So, but yeah, I love the concept. All right. We have NASA planning to roll out the Artemis 2 rocket this weekend. We have to go to the moon to get to Mars. We'll tell you more about that. A winter storm just. Talking to God about the bears, and I think I created this. That's hilarious, by the way. Midwest to the Mid-Atlantic. And with it, dumping heavy snow across the 11th State. Remember, you used to work for Pat Robertson. Pat used to pray those hurricanes to other states. I said, Pat, you can't do that. Why? It's their job to pray, too. I said, just send it out in the ocean. This is Richard from Flovilla, Georgia, and my morning show is your morning show with Michael Del Giorno.
Bill, why is my eye twitching? Does this mean I'm in perimenopause? Maybe I have adult ADHD. I need to look this up. Where's my phone? Juliana, your phone is hot to the touch. I think it's asking you for a break. You know what? Maybe I should just ask chat GPT. Or maybe we can ask an actual human. Yes, like a couple sex therapist. Whoa, that escalated quickly, but... Okay. Because I have questions. We have questions. And I bet everyone has questions. Like, is it normal to sleep in separate bedrooms? We do that. How about this one? Is bribing your kids bad parenting or just negotiating? Oh, and I still do need to know why was my poop green that one time? Hypothetically, right? Okay, well, instead of letting the internet guess, we've got actual people answering these exact questions. And laughing with us has got to be better than spending three hours down a rabbit hole online. Listen to Bill and Juliana. The podcast.

We'd love to join you on the drive to work live. But we're glad you're here now. Enjoy the podcast. Got my coffee, got my crackling fireplace, and I got my morning show, which is your morning show. But Michael Del Journal, ain't nothing going to make me move. Yes, honey? I'll be right there. Oh, well. Are our listeners doing schick now? Are they doing skit comedy now? We're a variety show. 36 minutes after the hour, if you're in the eastern time zone, you got 24 minutes to be to work by 8 o'clock, and we are honored you're bringing us along with you. This is your morning show on the air and streaming live on your iHeart app. I'm Michael. Honored to serve you. Jeffrey's got the sound. Red's got the content. Our Your Morning Show senior contributor, David Zanati's with us. I just got this text. I used to believe that spontaneity was planned well in advance. And then I started working for this show. I love it. It's funny. By the way, that comes from Jeffrey. Jeffrey, why are you texting me like a listener? Well, because there's conversation going on and I don't want to break in. So I just thought I'd let you know. You know, I'm right. That's like the guy that's, you know, telling everybody on Facebook how wonderful their wife is. You know what? Put your phone down, turn your head and tell her. I got things to do. But you know what it's funny? I am not good at planned comedy. In fact, I can't tell stories twice. Right. And I can't. All I have is real spontaneity. Everything else isn't really that funny. Did I just hear you say you went over? I'll have to make it up.
Say it isn't so, L.O.L. Jerry, Jerry. All I meant was that one segment went a little long would shorten the next segment. You still haven't won your bet that I was late for a national break. Oh, is this jury the time clock? The jury the time clock. We put an eye on me. We're a mafia. We got Jerry the time clock. Well, listen, we had one the other day, David, that was the closest. So I thought I could get one more story in. And it was one of those where Mark Mayfield played like 15 seconds of a music intro. And I was about five seconds into the music intro when I looked up and I said, oh, we're breaking in five seconds. So the story didn't make sense. I had to cut it short. But, you know, we can't be late or we make 107 stations mess up. So trust me, it's just not going to happen. It's just going to sound rough. All right, David, this is the question of the day. This is the reason I have you here today. I'll read it as I wrote it. American voters are identifying less and less with both parties. That doesn't mean they're not still leaning parties. All right. So when we say 48% of America is independent, not really. Because a lot of them are like me. I am an independent. I have nothing in common with Democrats. I am worldview, policy view, ideologically, antithetical to everything they stand for. But I have a lot in common with the Republican Party. when they live it, and they rarely do. So I'm an independent, but I'm probably, in all honesty, an independent who leans caucuses with Republicans. But what does this mean beyond that whole leaning thing? When Maxter pre-wrote a book called The Art of Leadership, he said the first responsibility of a leader is to find reality. Well, the first responsibility of a pollster is to define the question. And so when you ask people, if you were to ask them straight up, open-ended question, define what it is that the Democrat Party stands for. Oh, they won't define what the Republican Party stands for. You'd have thousands of answers. And so we're polling jello, for starters. But one thing people are beginning to figure out. is that both these power parties stand for the preservation of power and control over federal and state budgets. Not a republic or the prosperity and security of its people. Not the principled practice of government for the common good. And that's the dramatic difference between political parties at the beginning of the country and where we are today. Not only was the government too small to want to own and control, the government was in trouble for the first hundred years as far as wars and deaths and sacrifices. When you got involved in public service, you could die. Now, or go broke. Now in five years, you got a lifetime pension. I mean, you compare some of our early, we just did a whole big study that culminated in a book and Christmas in America on John Quincy Adams, who was always one of my favorite presidents that nobody ever talks about.
the one thing that you really helped enlighten me on, I never realized that the width of his wings go from the founding of our nation and founding fathers, of which his father was the second president. And the other stretch goes all the way to Abraham Lincoln. And he's one of the few guys that served as a president and then went on to be just a representative. He's just an amazing human being. But when we were looking at all of that, these are people that used to either risk their life or almost certainly lose their fortune. Yes. To serve, create, and ultimately begin the era of preserving the republic. And then you have people today that come into office for five, six years and leave with millions. You know, say you're married to your brother. Get here as a Somali refugee. Become a member of Congress. And now you have $30 million. Where'd that come from? You exist to hold power for a specific contingency group and to leverage that power. That is the antithesis of what public service is supposed to be in a constitutional republic. We're supposed to serve for the common good, not for the party that controls the budget. We're talking trillions and trillions of dollars. And all the attending money that comes with that. Now, you know, 45 years in the public policy business, our team is very careful going to Washington, D.C. We try to never stay overnight. We bring our own bottled water. Okay, we don't trust anything about that environment at all. I always feel the need for a hose and a shower. All right, so. Oh, yeah. Rather than break this down, they ask the question, are you Republican? Are you a Democrat? And then if you say you're an independent, do you lean Democrat or lean Republic? What do you do? We've been training these for many years. So the question is what it is over and over again. And that part, and again, you've got to get into sample size and everything, but that part makes me say, okay, we're feeling less two-party system-oriented. And we're starting to bust out of that. Some are leaving one more than the other. And then at the end, or at any point in the process, there's a remnant. So what's left in the Democrat Party? Nothing but far left. What's left in the Republican Party? You still have establishment. You still have conservative and you still have evangelicals. Now you head into a midterm. Now you head into a presidential cycle. And I guess the thesis of my question became, as America becomes less and less partisan to the two parties, is it any more conservative or any more liberal or does it remain just as? Divided is both. Any less divided as we step away from the two big parties? Further, is it possible for a party partisan divide, which is the divided states of America, to simply just become the divided people of America? And then how does that impact? And when I say midterms, I'm talking to the iVoters.com, David Sinati, because you know it's really 12 races.
Yes, it is. It's 12 races in the House, six races in the Senate, and that's the point of reality. The challenge, Michael, and this is in some ways it's inspiring, in some ways it makes you almost want to throw up because it's frightening. What's happening right now, there are people who are making millions of dollars sitting in luxury suites in Arlington, Virginia, who are making up the narrative for what this election will be about. They now spin it like showrunners in Hollywood. And they will create the narrative that they want to sell to people that when they've gone through their little Netflix special in their mind as to what this election means, then they'll vote the way that the consultants have gotten paid to push them to vote. God, I love the way you worded that. I bet they even start with a sizzle reel. Oh, yeah, that's it. It's, they start with a whiteboard. Even, you know, they start with a whiteboard. They create the universe of 51% and then they create the narrative of what it's going to take to get there. It's like a Broadway musical. That's what they do because they don't care. And the way the politicians work out in the consulting world is you have to pick a side. You're one side or the other. You can't, there's no common good left in that world. And you get paid millions of dollars. to win the sizzle, and then to win the election, even if it's by one vote. And they set the stage. Yes. So right now, they know that the Republicans big play to offset their narrative, which I think is going to be affordability, tyrant, illegitimacy. I don't even think they're going to get to abortion this time, but they might. But they're trying to use this Minneapolis, use this ICE dictatorship, turning. law enforcement against the people to discredit him. And I don't know that they haven't done it. I even saw Joe Rogan buying some of these narratives, and that's very influential, to offset Donald Trump's ability to have a response to their narrative, which would give them Congress. And once they get Congress, they won't be impeaching Kristi Noem. They'll be impeaching Donald Trump. Sure. And then building toward that 2028 power shift where they get control of the administrative side of government once again. Since the 1900s, the progressives of America, which is what the Democrat Party is, want an administrative government. They want us to be the batteries that work for a living and pay the taxes, and they make all the decisions as to who gets the money and the benefits. That's the way they want it to work. And that's the balancing act that they're in nonstop. It has nothing to do with that blessed thing we call the Constitution. Nothing. Senior contributor, David Zanati, closing moments. All right. So I can see how 2028 plays out. JD Vance will be damaged goods because that's still Trumpism and Trumpism is tyrants, you know, a tyrancy. I don't know how tainted Marco Rubio is for being in, but you could make a case he might want to leave rather soon or certainly after the midterms. Ron DeSantis, I think, is far more in play than people think. And I will say what I always say. Ron DeSantis is a proven, strong leader. He'll be a great president like he was a great governor. He'll be a weak candidate. Yeah. And this move to independence.
could open a door for somebody like a Robert F. Kennedy Jr.. Now Bobby. Yeah, go ahead. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Rand Paul, there's all kinds of possibilities. They could get very interesting. One question I have for you is to me, Marco Rubio right now is the canary in the coal mine. He's the one we've got to watch because he's knocking himself out working for jobs trying to do the right thing the right way. When we see Marco Rubio move or exit begin to look like he's moving out, that's a signal. I'll use a really stupid analogy. He's the Buffalo Bills. I can't tell if it's my heart or if it's just that obvious. He's next. Marco Rubio, maybe even Robert F. Kennedy Jr. ticket would be tough, but I don't think it would be Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on the ticket. But I think it's Marco Rubio. I don't know. But as much as we painted that picture, all right, in one minute or less. What's the picture you can almost see playing out? Like you've had an advance of the sizzle reel of the midterms. Affordability and tyrancy? Oh yeah. Yeah, this is, it's all, it's all anti-orange. It's all this is the chance to finally stop the orange guy. And yeah, they will just, yeah, it's going to be nothing but the commercials are going to be nothing but nuclear blasts of authoritarianism and destruction. And only the rich make it. It's all gilded. It's all gold. He's given them so many bullets for commercials. Sorry, let me retract that. He's given them so many magic markers for the board of commercials. That it's going to be. And by the way, they'll do a great job at it. It's just a question of whether the rest of us will be buffaloed by. Last question. So if they're going to make the midterms. Those are bills upon by the way. I know. The last question is if they're going to make the midterms a presidential race. Why would it be a different outcome than the one we just had a year and a half ago? Ah, because they have the luxury now of pointing Donald Trump to be a failure. Yeah, I guess we should have brought up the word tariff, too. It's your morning show with Michael Deljourno. Good morning. All the lecturing is great, but. Here's the bottom line. If you don't vote against the Democrats, and I will take sides here, the country is going to go to heck. You guys will say I'm exaggerating. Take a look at what they're going to do. They're going to defund ICE. All the illegals would flow back into the country and massive numbers. You've got to vote Democrats out of office right now. I mean, it's the next election because that's what's going to happen. One, no one was lecturing. Two, I don't disagree with you. Three, all I have to do is look at California, Minneapolis, New York. I'm just never going to tell you how to think. But I like where you arrived. Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Carino-Muchado. Had a gift for the president at the White House. The two met at the White House on Thursday. And afterward, Maria Corina Machado told reporters she presented the medal to Trump in appreciation for deposing Venezuela's former leader, Nicholas Maduro.
Trump later took to social media to thank her, calling the movie A Wonderful Gesture of Mutual Respect. It comes after the Nobel Committee reiterated earlier this month that once a Peace Prize winner has been announced, the decision stands for all time. I'm Mark Mayfield. I've been over this yesterday, and you can use the podcast this weekend to catch up on shows you missed to search your morning show into the Iheart radio app, or you'll find the link at your morning show online.com. The president elaborated more on the next steps in his plan for lasting peace in the Middle East. President Trump taking to truth social to announce a board of peace has been formed to oversee things in Gaza. The president's saying the members of the board will be announced soon and calling it the greatest and most prestigious board ever assembled at any time, any place. He went on to add that it is officially the next phase of Gaza's 20-point peace plan. I'm Jim Rupert. Well, things got pretty heated at the White House in the press room. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt got into it with a columnist from the Hill when asked about the deadly ice involved shooting of Renee Good. Why was Renee Good unfortunately and tragically killed? Because an ice agent acted recklessly and killed unjustified. Oh, okay. So you're a biased reporter with a left-wing opinion. What do you want me to do? Yeah, because you're a left-wing hack. And you and the people in the media who have such biases, but fake like you're a journalist, you shouldn't even be sitting in that seat. Well, there's big bucks in derangement, that's for sure. Go fund me donations for suspended Ford employee, T.J. Sabula. I wonder what his salary was. That all he had to do was heck of the president. Get him to flip him off. $800,000 later. Subula was suspended after he heckled President Trump Tuesday at the Ford River Rouge plant in Michigan, yelling, quote, pedophile protector. leading Trump to mouth an explet of Adam and flip him off twice with his middle finger. Subula is being paid while suspended. Democratic Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib of Detroit called Subula a national hero and says Trump is protecting pedophiles. She called for the Epstein files to be fully released. I'm Michael Kassner.
