I'm Michael Deljourner, honor to serve you, and this is your morning show. Well, the voter fraud revealed in New Jersey. It's just the tip of the iceberg. In fact, It's showing a little ankle. I think I used it wrong. But the next portion of the iceberg is already showing. The U.S. completed another wave of strikes on Iran. The Fed did just what we said they would do and exactly what we hope they wouldn't do. They did not raise the rates. They certainly didn't lower them. They held them steady. And Anthony Fauci pled the fifth 111 times yesterday. Not a peep out of the fouch. All right. A new national poll, and I think one that's probably getting the most attention today, is now 54% of likely registered voters see the Iran war as a wrong decision. Again, that's probably maybe a little bit more attention on gas prices than the threat of crazy people with a nuclear weapon. It could have something to do with how the president... handled the denuking of them very well and the peace not so well. But there's Trump, there's Iran, there's gas prices, food safety. I mean, we got a poll on everything. Showing his ankle this morning is our national correspondent at Roryo. Now I can't figure out how to use the year, but I love that ankle thing.

Well, look, this is the folks over at Quinnipiac who are showing a little more than ankle in their broad poll on multiple topics, as you said. One of the interesting notes, two-thirds of voters. 66% said they don't think the war in Iran has been worth fighting. 31% say that it has. Overall, we've seen that 34% of voters support the U.S. military action. 60% are opposed and more than half, just over half, think that this conflict will last for more than a year. And there's not a lot of confidence that Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff can get the job done. 39% say they have either a lot or some confidence in those two as negotiators. and gas prices. Again, all of these, and again, Quinnipiac has leaned on the left side of some of these things. But even with a grain of salt, it chose the president's losing to support the American people on this war. And I would suspect a lot of it has to do gas prices. So what do we learn from that? It's interesting. Voters were asked how much they blame President Trump for the recent spike in gasoline prices. 54% say he gets a lot of the blame. 19% said some, 11% said not much, and 15% said not at all. Another interesting note, 29% of voters think that President Trump is focused enough on addressing the problems most Americans are facing. So that's the out of touch question, right? 29% say he's in touch with their issues. Overall, his popularity has reached an all-time low in this poll at 32%. Significant to note that support among Republicans has dropped by nine points since last month. Some of that could be Israel. Some of that could be this war with Iran. Some of that could be tariffs. Who knows? What about elections? Anything of midterms? Midterms, if the election were held today, 48% said they want to see the Democrats running the House. 41% said they want the Republicans in charge. How motivated are they this year? 48% said they are more motivated to vote than in past elections. So that could be... a concern, well, really to either party, I guess at this point. And they also asked about food safety, you know, with what's going on with the lettuce and all. Voters were asked how much confidence they have in government oversight of food safety. Only 43% of voters said they have either a lot or some confidence in government oversight of food safety regulations. And the rest haven't been paying close enough attention. Coming up in the third. You're at the Taco Bell Drive-Thru. Yes, I still can't bring myself to head there. What's next in Iran as President Trump promises the U.S. will give Tehran a beating. He actually said something far worse than that. We're going to blank the blank out of them. We'll be back in the third hour with more on that. David Sinati, our senior contributor is joining us. And before we get to voter fraud.

Got to play your senator. I know I bothered you on the golf course, but that was quite a moment that happened. Listen, it was about six years ago today that I decided I'm going to give up my businesses, sell them all, run for office, run for the United States Senate. Here I am sitting in front of you six years later saying, who the fuck do you think you were for doing that? It is a total disgrace what you did to this country. Total disgrace what you did to this country. And he kind of expressed everyone's anger and frustration in a single naughty word that no one seemed to react to at all. That's how much everyone wanted to say that to Anthony Fauci. It reminds me, you know, we had a whole... generation after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. got shot. A whole generation inspired after Reagan left office. A whole generation after 9-11 inspired to run for office. And I wonder how many people like Marino were inspired by COVID to run for office. And he did and he won and he got to say that to Anthony Fauci. What's the reaction inside Ohio? Good morning, Michael. I think before we go there, oh, Marino, let's see. I've got to check his ethnic origin, last name ending in a vowel. Before we get there, there's probably no real surprise for you and I to be familiar with 111 pleadings of the fifth for an Italian before the United States Congress, right?

Is that a reference to the mafia era? Didn't this just feel like we were back in Godfather? We were missing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on the panel. Yeah, I mean, that's all we needed. We should have had Bobby up there. It wouldn't perfect. Of course the Italians could have taken the fifth. And by the way, Mike McCann's on to us. I don't know if you caught that last liner about the Italians. What is this a soprano? I don't know how it happened. I assure you it's. I think it's God's incredibly a great sense of humor. Well, don't forget the O'Neils and the Bonsonsons. Yeah. The Walker. Yeah, that's right. That's right. Well, then there's red. Okay. We don't know what red is. He could. I'm half Italian. Oh, well, see. No wonder you got the job. Okay, now it makes sense. And what's the other half? Because that's the one I don't like. Go ahead. Well, I, you know, I kind of broke it down. Multiple spit tank across. Yeah, I kind of broke it down. I think the one I haven't had a chance to play yet was. when Rand Paul throws his attorney out of the chamber, which was a great moment. But I kind of had the Holly moment, the Marino moment, and then the John Fetterman moment. Those were my three big takeaways. And for John Fetterman, at least he was honest about the mistakes he made. He acknowledged the matrix and hopes moving forward. I mean, that was John Fetterman's way of saying, this next virus. I mean, in other words, we've got to learn from this before they use this weapon again. Secondly, when the next virus comes, our biggest threat is the matrix, not the virus. And it was the first time. And of course, listening to you in the platinum hour brought back a lot of challenges because my take on that was that you and I were out here on an island. The first case of COVID in the Midwest in the state of Ohio happened in our doctor's office, Dr. Chuck McGowan. Dr. McGowan had the first COVID patient in that part of the country walk across the hallway in front of him was treated in his clinic. And then Dr. McGowan was not just only quarantined. He called me that morning. And just as the stories were breaking about all this is happening, he calls me and says, hey, I got two weeks. I can spend a lot of time with you on a radio because I just been quarantined. Then he was forced to take the vaccine. He then later had a heart issue. that is attributed, in his opinion, to the COVID vaccine. And he's never been the same sense. And he was already aged and had some heart issues. Interestingly enough, Anthony Fauci had a pulmonary infarction, which was brought up in yesterday's conversations, which was revealed by the diaries, which is one of the side effects that was... concerned a fear about the MRNA vaccine. So I've got a tremendous amount of reflections on yesterday. The first of which is the failure here is, and I don't know if we can stick with me on this. Even you, I'm not sure you could even stick with me on this. Yesterday revealed to me the failure of the political parties of America. Yeah.

because what happened yesterday, and I wish to God every American could see it, I watched the whole thing. I did not read Anthony Fauci's diaries because they're not my business. Now, it is public record, and so anyone has the right to read it. I don't read other people's mail unless it's sent to me by that person. I just, I don't want to know his internal thoughts. I don't need to know his internal thoughts because I see his actions. But the fact is that he did record them in a public setting, and according to Bobby, It appears that he recorded them on federal property. And so that was like an amazing moment of stupid. But now it's out there. But what you see is the Democrats defending this man as a saint, not even giving, other than John Fetterman, giving him. And there wasn't even a cross brow. It was, here's our moment. Let's get on shirts and skins and let's go to war. Excuse me. What on earth is wrong with the United States Senate? Well, I don't know how you could think I couldn't follow you because that's exactly what John Fetterman was expressing. Oh, yeah, John Fetterman's right. And then John Fetterman took the high road of saying, and I was a lieutenant governor at the time. And I wish I hadn't been so opposed to what the shirts were saying because I was a skin. Well, this is so painful. It's so painful to have to honestly hunch in and say to ourselves, these people are failing us. It wasn't just Anthony Fauci failing us. Where the blank was the Republican Senate, who now all act like their experts six years after the fact, where were they? Now, Rand Paul was there. As a physician, he knew this was nuts. Yeah. And there's a couple of other senators that were there too. And in the matrix sandwich that is today, the left is burying him. And the matrix sandwiches that it's today, they're burying Anthony Fauci. This two-party system is at the root of this matrix problem. And there's no greater hypocrisy than to have the high priest of the club of 100. Now prosecute Anthony Fauci six years after the fact. Where were they when you and I had the information? When Aaron Carriotti at UC Irvine had the information, when the Great Amy Coney Barrett team declaration was being produced and written, and we were distributing it around the country. Well, they were playing politics while we were playing medicine. Yeah, where were the, exactly, where were these geniuses then? Congratulations at 100% hindsight. I hope. Now, and by the way, I don't, I'll get in trouble if I don't say this, and it is the right thing to say. I wish Bernie Moreno had chosen to not use the language and just use to pause. Because it is inappropriate for the United States Senator in that format to use that language. Somebody's got to say it. All right. I'm not praising the use of language. I'm just acknowledging that no one. And I want my family will tell you. I hit rewind 16 times because there were 16 faces I wanted to look at. No kidding. And in all 16 faces, not one, including Anthony Fauci.

even bad at an eye at the choice of words. What does that tell you? Yeah, that's my point. That's my point. Now, the second point about Bernie Moreno is, okay, and he and John Fetterman both, okay, I'm going to challenge them both. You've got the seat, you've got the ability to stay reelected in your state. Have the courage both of you to run as independence. Have the courage to step outside of this nonsensical. blasphemous, stupid system and stand on what you believe on your own. I applaud both those men for entering into the public freight. Now, get out of the bondage of these after the fact 100% perfect calls. Now, Rand Paul is the chairman and he was right from the start about COVID. He tried his best and people wouldn't listen to him. He's been right about Obamacare and people won't listen to him. Rand Paul is no dummy. No. And yet people try to keep making him a dummy. I don't know what part I wasn't going to be able to keep up with and follow. Oh, no, no, no. I just think my intensity on this is so great. I get it. I mean, I don't want to come back. And I want to come back to the one thing I'm sitting out here all alone. And that is, did the president do much better yesterday? Oh, let me tell you something. I didn't expect you to go that way. That's pretty doggard courageous. And you couldn't be more right. Thank you. That takes a lot of guts to say that. because Donald Trump was wrong, and I'm sorry, you and I were there. We had the research. People have no idea how deep you and I were in this situation from all the different angles of our media opportunities and our background. Donald Trump had the opportunity to tell Anthony Fauci and Birx to get the blank out of his office to go out and say, we're reopening the country on Easter Sunday. That's what we're doing. And he let them bully him off. He made a tremendous mistake. And that can't. our economy into oblivion. Is it fair to say we both had two friendships that were destroyed with two governors? Oh, and quite a bit more. So you understand why I lost my temper? So Donald Trump's defense is I took the federalist stance and left it up to the states. The Republicans did great. The Democrats. Thank you for losing your temper. It's about times and more Italians speak up because one of them, obviously, 111 times didn't have the courage to tell us what color the carpet was. I was just looking back and I'm thinking, well, I thought Tennessee was a red state. I thought Ohio was a red state. There's two Republican governors who really blew it during COVID. And I happen to have personal interactions. And I can tell you, while the president is telling you, I told them it was up to them. You know what they were saying? We're following the president. What an Operation Warps speed into what? A brick wall? I mean, what the heck? The biggest cost of COVID is loss of trust. I suspect there's less trust today. Now, if you think with the New Jersey governor revealed on voter fraud is the tip of the iceberg, you're right. But there's the next portion of the iceberg already showing. DZ will have more on that, our subject for the day coming up in minutes. Gold and silver recently soared to record highs. Then it pulled back. So our precious metal is still a good buy. Well, the major banks think so. They're forecasting even higher gold prices ahead. And why? Well, we're $40 trillion in debt. We have a declining dollar. Inflation keeps shrinking our savings. Even with corrections along the way, gold remains a historical hedge for wealth protection.

That's why Morgan Stanley, this is huge. Ditched their 60, 40 stock to bond portfolio. They're now recommending up to 20% in precious metals. The standard used to be 10 for aggressive 15. Now Morgan Stanley recommending 20% in precious metals. What percentage of your investments are metals? And is it physical? And is it in different dimensions?

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?

Hi, it's Michael. Your morning show can be heard on great radio stations across the country like News Talk 92.1 and 600 WREC in Memphis, Tennessee. Or 1,300, The Patriot in Tulsa, or Talk 650 KSTE in Sacramento, California. We invite you to listen live while you're getting ready in the morning and to take us along for the drive to work. But as we always say, better late than never. Thanks for joining us for the podcast. Tomorrow, don't forget Friday with 47 in the third hour. Always. The smart way to start your weekend off, right? Next hour, we're going to visit with David Guy Benson, our economist and MoneyWiz. The Fed left the rate steady. Guy Benson will join us on why and what to expect by the end of the year. Emails. Blake writes, Michael, with his team of lawyers and taking the fifth 111 times, Anthony Fauci did himself in. He is not very good at feeling the public sentiment, who is definitely angry and wants retribution. And how about the Democrats who basically failed and walked out? This comes from Jim in Franklin, Tennessee. Michael, I like you, am furious that has taken over five years to get to where Anthony Fauci has his feet held to the fire. As a licensed health professional, I was shadow banned and dismissed for speaking the truth and seeing the naked emperor of COVID. But yesterday was about the lies and the corruption of one little lying man, Anthony Fauci. The highest salaried federal employee, even over the president. Of course, the president wasn't even taking his salary then. True, the buck stops with Trump. But yesterday's Fifth Amendment fiasco was Anthony Fauci alone. I, like you, wasn't dup, but sadly many good people were. All the best, Jim. This one comes from Roy. Don't forget. Remember when St. Anthony Fauci was doing interviews in 2020? He had a prayer candle on his bookshelf depicting himself as the Christ. Roy remembers. I zoomed in on the picture and sure enough, he's got a prayer candle with his face photoshopped in. instead of Jesus. All right, that's some of your feedback at Michael D at iHeartMedia.com. Don't forget to use the talkback button if you're listening on your iHeart radio app. If you're just waking up, we completed another wave of strikes. The president promised he hit Iran hard, and he did last night. The Fed kept the interest rates unchanged, and Anthony Fauci pled the fifth. Count them 111 times. Our White House correspondent, John Decker, is joining us. Your recap on the testimony? That's kind of all we've been doing this morning, but I'm anxious. You've been following a White House for 30 years. What was your view? Well, it's not a surprise to me. You know, I've covered the White House for a long period of time. I covered when Anthony Fauci was coming into the briefing room and giving those briefings during the coronavirus pandemic. He, of course, received a pardon from former President Joe Biden on Biden's last day in office. But that pardon only covers a specific period of time. It only covers the period through January the 19th of 2025. And so as a result.

His lawyer instructed Anthony Fauci, it would be in your best interest to invoke your Fifth Amendment rights. If indeed you are accused of perjuring yourself during your testimony before that congressional hearing, this is something which protects you. And that is a constitutional right that every American has. And Anthony Fauci took advantage of that constitutional right yesterday. You're a Supreme Court bar attorney. You left out the beginning, which I thought was interesting. And when does that pardon begin? You talked about the period. I believe, I believe it's 2014. Isn't that interesting? Well, he covers the same period of time. I think that it was a cut and paste type of pardon because that's exactly the same period of time that Hunter Biden is covered by in the pardon that Joe Biden gave to his son. So I think that's exactly what happened there. If you're in the gain to function business in Wuhan, it's a convenient time too. But the diaries themselves and the fact that he put them on a government server and now they've surfaced. And they clearly show his perjured testimony. Can that be used? Because that certainly happened after 2025, even though it was written before 2025. No, no, it doesn't work that way. So as you know, the chairman of the committee, Senator Rand Paul says that he will have the committee vote on a contempt of Congress citation against Anthony Fauci. vote will happen next week. But, you know, I think that that is going down a road that will not be successful the way Rand Paul wants it to be successful. It's just not going to lead to anything substantive against Anthony Fauci. You know, look, you know, people have their opinions of Anthony Fauci and you're free to have your opinions. As it relates to what happened yesterday, you know, invoking your Fifth Amendment, right? It happens in courtrooms all across America every day in this country. But this is different, of course, because you have the added element of the pardon. And of course, even Donald Trump has invoked his Fifth Amendment rights. He did so more than 400 times during a sworn deposition for Letitia James in her civil suit against Donald Trump. So look, people, yeah. I was just going to say, what about the Florida AG who is now launching an investigation? There's still some vulnerabilities for Anthony Fauci at the state level and in civil court, right? You are correct. So a presidential pardon only covers federal crimes, federal convictions. It does not cover any state charges or state convictions. And so if the Florida Attorney General wishes to pursue a criminal investigation of Anthony Fauci, his recommendations, his actions, while he served as an advisor to President Trump and President Biden during the pandemic,

AG in Florida is certainly free to do so, and we'll see where that leads. We'll see if that leads to any kind of charges against Dr. Felgy. White House correspondent John Decker joining us closing moments. The president wanted the Fed to lower interest rates. We all knew there wasn't a chance of that. In fact, the conditions had us on watch for a rate increase. They ended up holding it steady. Did that please the president? Was that good enough for him? Well, I asked the president that very question yesterday. I was in the Oval Office. The president, you know, clearly not surprised. It was a nine to three vote. And Kevin Warsh, the new chairman of the Fed, was one of those nine Fed governors who voted to keep interest rates unchanged. The three Fed presidents that were on the opposite side wanted to actually increase interest rates. And it's going to be interesting to see what happens. The next time the Fed meets when they can process the new inflation data that will have been received and whether or not this ongoing conflict is impacting energy prices and the way that they've impacted energy prices over the course of the past four months. Well, the president planned to blanking. bomb the blank out of them. And he did last night, although there is some Quinnipiac polling that shows the American people are less behind this war than they certainly were at its start. And this is probably more of a story that you're dealing with in the hallways than really there's interest, especially compared to the Anthony Fauci testimony. But Todd Blanche's nomination for U.S. Attorney General, that doesn't seem to be going well. Well, it doesn't, you know, and I talk about that on the podcast today, Michael. It's not going well because there are two Republican senators who sit on the Senate Judiciary Committee, and they have said publicly, they are not going to approve his nomination as things stand today. We're talking about Thom Tillis, Republican from North Carolina, John Cornyn, Republican from Texas. Both of them are in their final term. as U.S. senators. So there's very little leverage that the president has over each of those Republican senators. What they want, they want in writing what Todd Blanche has promised in congressional testimony, which is in writing that there will be no anti-weaponization fund ever during the course of Donald Trump's second term. They also want a change to some of the agreement that was... agree to with President Trump as it relates to the IRS and a prohibition on the IRS ever looking into Donald Trump's taxes, the tax returns of his sons or the tax returns of the Trump organization. Those are commitments that they want from Todd Blanche before they vote affirmatively for his nomination. Well, if you like to stay informed without bias, without talking points, without narratives, I mean just the facts. You will love the White House briefing room with John Decker.

Very concise. Takes about 15 minutes of your time. It'll be up by 8 Central, 9 Eastern this morning. We'll talk to you again tomorrow, John. Blessings.

Thank you so much, Michael. Have a great day. Have a great day. Bye-bye. You too. 44 minutes after the hour. David Sinati, our senior contributor is here. The voter fraud revealed in New Jersey last week. That was an inconvenient truth for the left's narrative. And it's just the tip of the iceberg. David, you've been watching the next portion of the iceberg that's already revealing itself. Oh, yeah. And showing our ankles. The... Michael, Melanie Elsie, who's the legislative director for the American Policy Roundtable and a dear friend and appears on the public square every single week with us. She has been warning us about motor voter. registration for decades, this great big way of making it all equal and fair for everybody. When you register to vote, they ask you, would you like to be, oh, when you get your license, like to register to vote. And if you've been there, you know exactly what I'm talking about. If you've gone and stood in the line, you've seen it happen over and over and over again. Well, with the influx of immigration that we've had, the millions and millions of people showing up who are getting driver's licenses. who are here on temporary status. They get a driver's license and they're asked the same question. Now, I can't stay. I have absolutely no moral judgment on how it's done, what they understand. I'm not making an accusation. They're just a simple fact. That if they say yes, they get registered. And in New Jersey, now it's not a few, it's not a dozen. It's thousands and thousands of people. Well, my first interjection is if it's thousands in New Jersey, and I think it's very reasonable to point to motor voter. That's where all the confusion came in. That's why they're saying, oh, they didn't know. that they were registered. You mean to tell me there's not thousands in other states? And what about the hundreds that voted? And did they really show up and vote? Because the motor voter would suggest they did it. They didn't even know it. And they went on their merry way with their new license. But somebody voted, whether it was them or someone as them. I mean, this is convenient to just have thousands sitting everywhere. Yeah, I mean, why would- In case you need them? And again, we're not, we're not suggesting that this is a conspiracy of anything other than a conspiracy of stupid. Stupid. If you set up your systems that have the potential to be manipulated, and then they get manipulated, and here's the reason it's so dangerous. Remember, it's the getaway car syndrome. In America, you can steal an election fair and square if they can't catch up with you before your candidates in office because no court is going to want to overturn an election. So this is a dangerous vulnerability. And people who care about the system more than the politics have been trying to cry out wolf on this for generations, for decades, and nobody's listening. Well, even with this revelation in New Jersey, even with this revelation of voter mistrust.

Nobody's even suggesting it today. You and your legislative liaison are the only two that have brought it up. I don't know if that makes us brilliant or us all doomed. Well, we've been bringing it up on the public square for a long, long time. So fortunately, the words getting out, and that's what matters, is that people are realizing it's a systemic problem from a congressional action that goes back decades in which once again, Washington, D.C. politicians are trying to take care of everybody instead of letting the states do what they need to do. And letting people come to a place of understanding that voting, voting is not like getting to pick the cereal on the cereal aisle. Anyone in America who's got food stamps and up can pick whatever cereal they want. Voting is more significant than that. You should have some skin in the game, at least your time, on a single day where you go in with a piece of paper and pencil and you state your opinion and we can count it that night. And you're capable of registering. And you're capable of proving your identity. David, we know this is just the tip of the iceberg. And even motor voter is just the next part of the iceberg. And there's more iceberg to be revealed. And we'll be watching it when it does. Well, on the advice of counsel, I respect to the decline.

If you have three ones. times five, you've got to have three five. So the only problem with that, it would be five, five, five. Six, six, six. Yeah. But it was still evil, wasn't it? By the way, you must have played my wife's, my morning show is your morning show. I just got this from the home office. Okay. I should do voice work. I have a nice voice. So pleasant and calm. and calming, unlike the way I sound at home. I'm going to talk all day in my radio voice. Do you have her doing the snake? Oh, absolutely. I got her doing that.

U.S. Central Command says in a post on X, the strikes are a response to Tuesday night's attacks by Iran on American forces in the Middle East. CENTCOM says all the Iranian missiles were successfully intercepted. Speaking with reporters Wednesday, President Trump said Iran knows it's coming, adding it's our turn. Though Trump held out hope that diplomatic efforts will prevail. I'm Scott Carr in Washington. President Trump isn't commenting on whether Dr. Anthony Fauci should face a contempt of Congress vote in the Senate. Trump spoke to reporters on Wednesday. I disagreed with him on a lot. I would have had it closed down the whole country if I listened to him. I went the federalist way, which is basically let the governors decide. Republican Senator Rand Paul said the Homeland Security Committee will vote on a contempt resolution against Anthony Fauci next week after he invoked the Fifth Amendment in a COVID-19 hearing.

Trump was asked about the vote, but would only say Anthony Fauci didn't do many favors in the early days of the pandemic. The president insisted he left decisions about masking and closing schools to state governors, not Anthony Fauci. I'm Mark Mayfield. Meanwhile, President Trump is asking the Supreme Court to overturn the $83 million awarded. to the E. Jean Carroll defamation case. Scott Pringle reports on more. Carol successfully tried two defamation cases against Trump in 2019 and 2022 and was awarded tens of billions of dollars. She's accused him of sexual assault. Trump denies the accusations. The Supreme Court's already declined to hear Trump's appeal in one of the cases where Trump paid Carol $5 million. But Trump is now asking the Supreme Court to overturn a much larger award that the jury ordered him to pay a couple years ago for defaming her. In New York, I'm Scott Pringle.
