It would remain Ourmistice Day, which of course 32 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 1: is separate and distinct from Memorial Day. Memorial Day is 33 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: the day in which we honor those who died in war. 34 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: The original Armistice Day was to honor those who had 35 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: served in World War One. Actually those who had died 36 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: in World War One. There were one hundred eighty four thousand, 37 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: four hundred ninety three Texans who served in World War One. 38 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: That is a staggering number of people. One hundred eighty 39 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: four thousand, four hundred ninety three Texans alone would serve 40 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: in that awful war. We don't study World War One 41 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: as we once did because World War Two became so 42 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: important and so interesting, so fascinating the personalities, and of 43 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: course it's more recent. And then in nineteen twenty six, 44 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: a resolution was adopted proclaiming an annual observance of November eleventh, 45 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: with appropriate ceremonies by President Coolidge. And then, of course, 46 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: in nineteen forty five, toward the end of World War Two, 47 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 1: a fellow from Birmingham, Alabama, by the name of Raymond 48 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: Weeks had the idea to expand our Mistice Day to 49 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 1: honor all veterans because we were concluding another brutal war. 50 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: It would eventually end up on the desk of World 51 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: War Two General Dwight Eisenhower in nineteen fifty four to 52 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: make this Veteran's Day, which it is and always has 53 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 1: been since then for the last seventy days. The official 54 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: observance of two minutes of silence is recommended at one 55 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: eleven pm today Central Time. Just a reminder that Veteran's 56 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: Day honors all who served, wherever they served, in whichever 57 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 1: branch they served, not those who died, and not those 58 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 1: who are serving today. While those do fall into this, 59 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: this is the broadest, most expansive, most inclusive commemoration of 60 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: service to our nation in the armed forces. So to 61 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: every one of you out there who is a veteran, 62 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: thank you very much for your service. Yesterday, of course, 63 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: was the Marine Corps Birthday, So to all our devil 64 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: dogs out there, thank you very much for your service. 65 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: One of my favorite events at the RCC, and we 66 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: started it that first year, was to honor the Marine 67 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: Corps and our veterans, and then the following month on 68 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: December seventh, was to honor our World War Two veterans 69 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: on Pearl Harbor Day, which we also called Grandparents' Day 70 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: for those who were elderly but had not served. They 71 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 1: were also invited to come out and be honored and 72 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 1: be celebrated. It was always a It was always a 73 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: fun time, and during the course of the almost ten 74 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: years of the RCC, we would lose one or two 75 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: of those veterans every year, and I believe we have 76 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 1: lost all of those who attended that first year during 77 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 1: this time, which is which is a great loss, a 78 00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: great loss. Indeed, we had a we had an event 79 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: at twenty nine to twenty Roadhouse recently, and as always 80 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 1: I went through the three things that we always do, 81 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:13,559 Speaker 1: which is first, make a new friend, Second, kiss your wife, 82 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: and third we honored our veterans, and I told the 83 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 1: story about how we didn't have any more of our 84 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: World War Two veterans. We would go through each of 85 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: the conflicts, but if there happens to be a World 86 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: War Two veteran here, could someone raise your hand and 87 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 1: point to him. And from the back I heard kind 88 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: of a hushed and you could hear quiet, and there 89 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: was a World War two veteran. And I invited him 90 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 1: up to the stage. And it's taken a little while 91 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 1: and he gets up to kind of the barrier to 92 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: where the inside area, you know, the front area right 93 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 1: in front of the stage, and then which we had 94 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: set off for show sponsors, and then the area behind that, 95 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: and I invited him to come on down on because 96 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: those guys are very humble. They don't they're very modest, 97 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: they don't want to draw attention. And he kind of 98 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: put his hands up like no, no, that this is 99 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: as far as I'm going. Well, he was out of gas, 100 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: that is what it came down to. So the event 101 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: proceeds the pace and a little while later an ambulance 102 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 1: shows up and they're trying to get in the back 103 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: and get him out of here. And I didn't know 104 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: who it was, and I find out it was our 105 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: World War two veteran. He'd had a heart attack. I 106 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: think the festivities were so much he'd had a heart attack, 107 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: and the deputies, who were helping the EMS get him 108 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: loaded onto the ambulance said, he asked us, please don't 109 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:41,959 Speaker 1: tell mister Barry, I don't want to ruin the night. 110 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: I thought, now, how sweet is that? How cute is 111 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,199 Speaker 1: that he did not want me to know because he 112 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: did not in anyway want to be in this tract. 113 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: That is the spirit of the people who have served 114 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: this great happy Veterans Day. This is the Michael Berry Show. 115 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 6: Hey y'all during just here missus liquor, Hey, honey, what Tuesday? 116 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 6: Did you see President Biden on the television yesterday? 117 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 5: Yes? 118 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 6: Good, that man grinned more than he have ever did. 119 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 6: I mean, both him and his son Hunter Biden have 120 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 6: got their teethcapped, and the President of course have had 121 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 6: hair plugs and boattox and everything to make him look 122 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 6: a little more younger. But I think at this point, 123 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,719 Speaker 6: when he got there and just grinned and laughed and 124 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 6: congratulate the next president, that he just was giving a 125 00:09:53,160 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 6: giant thumbs no uh, middle finger, yes too, Camellia Harris. 126 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 6: Because she was ignorant and presumptatory.

That's right, she was completely unequipped to even 129 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 6: deal with this ignance. That's why she had lost. She 130 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,599 Speaker 6: was ruderless and ignorance. 131 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 2: And God lover. 132 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 6: She was fadus in the history books like, let me 133 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 6: ask you this question, who is Hillary Clinton's running mate? 134 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 6: The last time she ran. 135 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: Doo doo doo doo doo do do?

The state of Texas is 141 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: more red and twenty twenty four than it was in 142 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen. It's an incredible, incredible feat you pulled off. 143 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,079 Speaker 1: And you would think, because you've been hard at it, 144 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 1: that now you can get back to your job, you 145 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: can get back to your family. I don't know about you. 146 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: I'm guilty. I sort of put everything mentally, I put 147 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: everything on hold. You know, back when you were in school, 148 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,199 Speaker 1: is you know after final exams, then I'll do this 149 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: at your business after we finish our year. In reports, 150 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: then I'll do it. If you have a medical issue, 151 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: say I need to get I need to do this, 152 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,719 Speaker 1: and do this, and do this, and men, you just 153 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: put a fence around you, and you're gonna put this 154 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 1: outside the fence. Now that might be the first thing 155 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: outside defense, but I'm putting it outside defense. And I'll 156 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 1: get to that when my surgery is over. I'll get 157 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: to that after the Thanksgiving or breaker, after. 158 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 2: The new year. 159 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 1: We love to do that. The problem is you stack 160 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,679 Speaker 1: those up and it gets to be February and you 161 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: realize that thing you've been putting off since October. You 162 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: added a bit more to that because now you wanted 163 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:30,199 Speaker 1: to start with all your new stuff. And Jenney, we 164 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: all do it. But we just finished the election and 165 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell and the swamp have already pulled a fast 166 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: one the election of the Senate majority leader. We've won 167 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: the House, We've won the Senate. This is our time 168 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: to Donald Trump has a mandate, a very clear mandate. 169 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: He won the popular vote. Nobody believed you won the 170 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: popular vote. Nobody believed it was possible, but it is. 171 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: It happened. Almost The only states we lost were states 172 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:15,439 Speaker 1: with no voter iding, so we don't know how many 173 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: people voted illegally. There we got people to the polls 174 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 1: properly legally in such large numbers it was too big 175 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:30,199 Speaker 1: to rickt We beat all of their illegal votes and 176 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: vote harvesting. That's incredible. So now there is the issue 177 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 1: of the Senate Majority Leader. I cannot overstate the importance 178 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: of who that person is and what they do and 179 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:50,599 Speaker 1: don't do in their role as Senate Majority Leader. So 180 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell and the swamp ran a little game. They 181 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,319 Speaker 1: set the election of the Senate Majority Leader for a 182 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: few days. It'll be this Wednesday after the general election. 183 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: That would mean that you would wake up Wednesday morning 184 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: hungover but exhilarated with the victory, and without any time 185 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 1: for the same grassroots that put those senators in office 186 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: to have time to organize that the representative would be 187 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: someone that we would actually want. And it was all 188 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: by design. Look, we can talk about Joe Biden poop 189 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 1: in his pants. If you haven't seen the video of 190 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: Joe Biden walking on the beach yesterday, get thee to 191 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: a computer, pull up your search engine, and it look 192 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: any video that was posted of Joe Biden walking on 193 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 1: the beach yesterday. My goodness, I mean, you could have 194 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: put what's it? Uh, baby Elephants? What's the video? 195 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 2: Ramona? 196 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: If you were gonna put together three have you seen it? 197 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: If you were to get you have, If you were 198 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: to put together three of the best audio beds to 199 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: watch that with, what would that get? Give me the 200 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: three that would work best. He is stumbling and bumbling. 201 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: He looks like he just had three gummies and two 202 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: beers and went out on the beach. And it's that 203 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: kind of look. It's not always easy to walk. He's 204 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: not walking on the flat part of the beach. He's 205 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: walking on the part where you can sink down. And 206 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: some of it's hard and some of it's not, and 207 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: it's and Jill, she's walking along and enjoying her last 208 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: moment because this has been her big debutop ball. And 209 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: he's he's a jerky just at any moment, he's gonna 210 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: fall over. And I'm counting on him to fall over. 211 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: I'm counting on it. I'm here for it. I want 212 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: it so much because when he falls over, you don't 213 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: know if he's gonna fall over. To get stuck right 214 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 1: there in the sand or if he's gonna roll for 215 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: a bit, you're gonna lay there and you're watching the 216 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: Secret Service and the unease on the face of the 217 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: Secret Service. All right, give me my three that you 218 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: would most play. What is this? Oh this baby elephants? 219 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: All right, turn it up? So people, Okay, that's a 220 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: good one. All right, what else you got? All right? 221 00:16:55,480 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: And third, that's where gonna let that right. Oh, that 222 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: might work perfectly because he's moving real gingerly. And then 223 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: there's a moment where he kind of stumbles, and so 224 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: he decides he's gonna kind of trot for no good reason. 225 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: He's gonna try to trot because maybe if he goes faster, 226 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 1: you won't notice that he's stumbling and bubbling Chris Berman style. 227 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: So the grassroots wants Rick Scott, and yesterday a list 228 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: was released or sorry, a list was leaked, and the 229 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: three top contenders, in descending orders order of votes that 230 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:45,120 Speaker 1: they have are John Thune with twenty four, John Cornyn 231 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 1: with eighteen, and Rick Scott with eleven. A number of 232 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: you have reached out through my email at Michael Berryshow 233 00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 1: dot com and asked that I convey to to Ted 234 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: Cruz or have Ted Cruz on the air to discuss 235 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 1: your desire that Rick Scott be the the choice. My 236 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 1: understanding from within the Trump campaign, from within, from within 237 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: Trump World, is that Trump wants Rick Scott, does not 238 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 1: want John Cornyn, who's presently running in second, and Ted 239 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 1: Cruz is supposed to be committed apparently to John Thune, 240 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: which has people understandably very angry the Michael Arry Show. 241 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 5: Of course, families can be deported together. 242 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: So the tally of Senators. By the way, the Veterans 243 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: Day tribute we played at the beginning, each of the 244 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: artists there, several people asked what that montage was. Each 245 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: of the artists in that montage was a veteran. So yes, 246 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: there were folks. Is music you did not realize was 247 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 1: being performed by an American service member veteran because they 248 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: were just pop songs or rock songs or whatever. But 249 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: they were, including Willie Knowlson. So the Senate Majority leader, 250 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: the importance of that position is not lost on you. 251 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 1: The Senate is the upper chamber of the Congress, the 252 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 1: lower chamber the House of Representatives, their primary function, their 253 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: most powerful function. The four hundred and thirty five members 254 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: of the House, which is very, very dominated by the 255 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: Speaker of the House. Their primary function is appropriations, the 256 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: funding of the US government. That is the role where 257 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 1: they will have the biggest impact on American policy. On 258 00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 1: most other things, the much smaller upper chamber, the Senate, 259 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:09,919 Speaker 1: with one hundred members, will be far more influential, particularly 260 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 1: particularly populating the federal government, because our Constitution calls for 261 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 1: the ratification of nominations by the President through this smaller body. 262 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,679 Speaker 1: So you've got a Senate with fifty three members. By 263 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: the way, Pennsylvania now Dave McCormick in Pennsylvania. It took 264 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: a week, but we finally got a result. Chuck Schumer, 265 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 1: the current Senate majority leader, will not invite McCormick, the 266 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: Republican that seat was flipped into the Senate orientation this 267 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 1: week because Casey, the current Senator, has not yet conceded. 268 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 1: It's a classless act. But we're talking about Chuck Schumer. Remember, so, 269 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer will no longer be the Senate majority leader. 270 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:07,199 Speaker 7: We know that. 271 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: The hard work of Americans to win these seats, to 272 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: flip these seats and give Republicans a clear majority, means 273 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: that for two years, and that's all, we're guaranteed Donald 274 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: Trump will have free reign to do what he wants 275 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 1: to do if Republicans in the House and the Senate 276 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 1: will support him. The Senate majority leader has an incredible 277 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: power to carry out Trump's agenda or to stifle it. 278 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: And that's what you would expect if a Democrat was 279 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 1: in charge of the Senate. Sadly, even with a Republican 280 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: you could have what you call a catch and kill. 281 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 1: They could smother Trump's agenda by claiming they didn't have 282 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: the votes. For instance, you remake the federal judiciary, and 283 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: this was perhaps Trump's greatest accomplishment in his first term 284 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,199 Speaker 1: was how many justices, was how many justice systems are 285 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,959 Speaker 1: in court, but how many federal judge ships he managed 286 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: to get through. And I credit where it's due. McConnell 287 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: did a good job pushing those judges through. That is 288 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: a that is a skill, it's a it's a real 289 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: skill to be able to wrangle that body. The Senate. 290 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: You got a hundred egos in there, and you've got 291 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: the Democrats working hard to keep these Republicans because remember, 292 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 1: federal judiciary appointment or federal judiciary seats benches are for 293 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: a lifetime. Once you put a federal judge on the bench, 294 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: they're not leaving until they retire or die. And you've 295 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 1: got to have a Senate Majority leader who is with 296 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 1: us on this. Rick Scott is a grassroots choice. Thune 297 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: is presently leading in the leaked list with twenty four, 298 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: Cornyn is at eighteen. Cruz is reportedly I have extended 299 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: an offer to him to come on the show and 300 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: talk this morning or this evening about the leak that 301 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 1: he is with Thune instead of Rick Scott, who's in 302 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: third at eleven. But what John Wayne mccornyn is now 303 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,120 Speaker 1: doing is he's got his kib'le head on. He's out there. Boy, 304 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 1: I'm for Trump. One thing we got to do is 305 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 1: get that Trump administration and it's all crock. So prepare 306 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: for the next two days to see old fashioned John 307 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 1: Wayne mccorny and making a return.

Is some bitch in Texas. If 312 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 2: you catch him at a monster truck rally, chances are 313 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 2: you'll catch him in one of them dazzled Maga cowboy 314 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 2: hats in a red, white and blue made in America 315 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 2: three piece suit.

John Wayne mccornan was not a math major. 321 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 2: He majored in America. And it's gonna take a leader 322 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 2: that majored in America to be the majority leader in 323 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 2: the Senate of America.

Amy 338 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 1: Davis at KPRCTV Channel two has done a wonderful job 339 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: exposing some of the corruption, just the tip of the iceberg. 340 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: But she's done a wonderful job at the Houston Housing Authority, 341 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 1: and she's found that after all the scandals, millions and 342 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 1: millions of dollars, that some of the top executives have 343 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 1: left the agency and oh, here's a big cash payout 344 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 1: as you leave to retain confidentiality because we don't want 345 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 1: you telling what's been happening here. Well, the procurement policy 346 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: at HHA is that anyone who gets any one hundred 347 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 1: thousand dollars payment requires BORD approval. So what do they do. 348 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: They give them a ninety nine thousand dollars payment. That 349 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: alone is a red flag. And that's exactly what's happened. 350 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: This guy David Northern, the CEO. He is by all 351 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: accounts up to absolutely no good. That is a criminal organization. 352 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: They're running over there. The story. To her credit Amy 353 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 1: Davis KPRCTV. 354 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,120 Speaker 8: This long list of former Houston Housing Authority employees came 355 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 8: from the HHA, just names and dates their employment ended, 356 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 8: no details. 357 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 9: That's astonishing that you would see that high a turnover 358 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 9: in such a short period of time. 359 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 8: Houston City Councilman Julian Ramirez said the large number of 360 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 8: employees leading is concerning, but more troublesome are the executive 361 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 8: level employees who left essentially muzzled. GPRC two investigates obtained 362 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 8: three confidential settlement, release and severance agreements signed by David 363 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 8: Northern and the former HHA employees. Keeland Lewis, former vice 364 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 8: president and general counsel, was paid ninety nine nine hundred 365 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 8: ninety nine dollars on the condition Lewis file no claims, 366 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:25,640 Speaker 8: lawsuits or make any disparaging statements or representations to anyone 367 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:30,360 Speaker 8: about HJ or its attorneys, directors, employees, contractors, or agents. 368 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 8: Senior Vice president Cupid Alexander was paid out just over 369 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 8: eighty nine thousand dollars for not communicating about his employment 370 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 8: with anyone at AHHA other than the HR director, and 371 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 8: he had to agree to drop any claims for violation 372 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 8: of public policy, fraud, and misrepresentation, among other things. And lastly, 373 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 8: Vice President of Operations George Griffin was paid out ninety 374 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 8: nine nine hundred dollars for his silence. 375 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 9: You hope that your government agencies are transparent and that 376 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 9: the public can find out what's going on so it 377 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 9: can evaluate the performance. 378 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 8: Ahja's procurement policy specifically states all procurements that exceed one 379 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 8: hundred thousand dollars must have approval from the board prior 380 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 8: to award. Since these agreements and payouts were just shy 381 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 8: of that threshold, the board may have never known the 382 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:22,959 Speaker 8: executives were paid to keep quiet. 383 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 10: Anytime an employee is prevented from telling what they know 384 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,480 Speaker 10: about waste, fraud, or abuse that might exist in an organization, 385 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 10: that's bad public policy. 386 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 8: And since the AHHA board put CEO David Northern on 387 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 8: paid leave, it made hh Vice President and General Counsel 388 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 8: Janine Hovelcox the interim president and CEO, the very same 389 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 8: person who drew up these confidential agreements and presented them 390 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 8: to now ployees. So I did reach out to Hovelcox 391 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 8: and the new AHHA board chairman to ask if they 392 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 8: would lift the non disclosure agreement so that the former 393 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 8: employees can speak freely with us and investigators. They told 394 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 8: us they did consider this. They also spoke with attorneys, 395 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 8: but decided not to because it could open the housing 396 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 8: authority up to lawsuits from the former employees, because part 397 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 8: of that is them agreeing not to sue. 398 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: So I want to make sure you get what's just 399 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: happened with Amy Davis that KPRC has just exposed. They've 400 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 1: taken your tax dollars. They have paid top executives at 401 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:39,719 Speaker 1: a governmental entity the maximum number of dollars they can 402 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: pay them, and still do so in secrecy. One of them, 403 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 1: the general counsel, the top lawyer. They have paid them 404 00:30:51,760 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: all this money in exchange for when they leave, they 405 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: won't tell all the laws they saw broken within the 406 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 1: organization process. That for a moment, that is as corrupt 407 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 1: as you can possibly imagine and almost certainly criminal. And 408 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: the woman who drew up the documents, who basically said, 409 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: we will pay you not to be a whistleblower. We 410 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: will pay you not to expose fraud. The guy who 411 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 1: was in charge of the organization who I'll remind you 412 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:45,479 Speaker 1: was paying hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars multiple times, 413 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 1: including to his buddy, the supposed clothing designer in Chicago. 414 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: There are certain guys who are self styled entrepreneurs. There 415 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: are a couple of businesses they always have. They always 416 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 1: have a limo service, they always have a mortgage company, 417 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: they're always clothing designers. Well, I think this guy had 418 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 1: all those and then and he pulled together a construction 419 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 1: company and HHA gave him money to put picnic tables 420 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 1: at the Section eight housing projects. And then they came 421 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 1: up with a scheme. They were going to pay him 422 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: to replace all the air conditioning units window air conditioning units, ramon, 423 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 1: can I get the sound of a window air conditioning unit? 424 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,239 Speaker 1: To put people in the right mood? And they were 425 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 1: going to overpay for these window air conditioning units to 426 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: a massive degree. 427 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 10: Do you know why? 428 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: Because old boy wasn't going to get the money. He 429 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: was going to get a minimal amount. And then there's 430 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 1: a kickback. Oh but we're not supposed to know about 431 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: the kickback because there's a confidentiality agreement. Well, let me 432 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 1: just tell you something that veil can be pierced. These 433 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: contracts can be busted wide open, the FBI can come in. 434 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 1: You cannot agree to an illegal contract to take ninety nine, 435 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: nine hundred and ninety nine dollars. So the board doesn't 436 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:28,719 Speaker 1: have to approve it. I'm not sure this board wouldn't 437 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 1: even have approved it in the first place. So that 438 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: you can hold on to the fact that you witnessed 439 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 1: a rate or a murder, or fraud or extortion or bribery. 440 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: Is this is your City of Houston government, This is 441 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 1: your Harris County government, this is your Metro, all of it. 442 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 1: This is what has resulted and what happens. What does 443 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 1: Sylvester Turner do, the mayor of the City of Houston 444 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: during all this, Oh, he just slides right into Sheila 445 00:33:55,320 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: Jackson Lee's congressional seat. Do you realize how many people 446 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: are being defrauded on a daily basis in this town 447 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 1: and all they can think is, well, we get an 448 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 1: over on. We put Sylvester in Sheilas's Yep, you sure did, 449 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 1: Mitch Old I'll try
