Michael Brown Unplugged: Recent Episodes
Situation With Michael Brown
Smart. Funny. Connected. Former Under Secretary of Homeland Security & FEMA Director Michael Brown provides provocative insight into culture, current events and politics. Get an insider's view of what the mainstream media won't be telling you. He delivers incisive content with humor, wit and smartness. He gives you an honest inside look that no one else is willing to do.
The impact of coronavirus on national debt. How emergencies effect debt. A man commits murder suicide after fearing a positive virus test. The mental toll quarantine has on people.
How antibodies could help stop the spread of infections until (if) a vaccine is produced. Clinical trials of COVID-19 vaccine. This is the first time in history, where healthy people were quarantined.
Making sense of data between COVID-19 versus other flu strains and where Dr. Fauci is misleading. The media doesn’t report scientific data accurately. Michael’s idea to keep hospital staff employed and utilize airlines to transfer patients. Politicians are afraid to make the first step against the grain. Dr. David Katz and others do not agree with America’s way of protecting the vulnerable.
During Michael's show on KOA News Radio, several callers who are blind called in late in the program. Their attitudes were so positive that Michael wanted to share their stories on his podcast. Their optimism and attitude during this COVID-19 crisis is something we should all take into consideration
This is a discussion with Weston Distance Learning in Fort Collins, Colorado. Weston Distance has decades doing distance learning. While this is focused on what my company, The Blue Cell, is doing with Weston Distance, it's also a great example of how you can do distance learning in the age of COVID-19
In 2009, Dr. Fauci gave an interview about how to deal with H1N1 influenza. It is eerily similar to the same advice he gives today, but without the social distancing, closing of businesses and destruction of the U.S. and world economies. Is this overreaction driven by media hype? Will it lead to the Great Depression 2.0? We need to learn to think for ourselves, study the experts with differing opinions, and not fall mindlessly into believing everything the media says about the novel coronavirus or COVID-19.
Home schooling. What makes a business exempt to statewide stay-at-home order. Reactions to pandemic are based on politics, not the Constitution. Mayor DeBlasio discusses closing down streets and other mayors considering the same. Supplies chains would be interrupted road closures. Why congress should repeal the Jones Act and trade should continue during pandemic. What laws need to change in the new normal. What we can do to change the culture of the country for the economy.
Measles, rubella, mumps, chickenpox, polio, all diseases from decades ago that we can’t even imagine today. So we’ve become so risk averse that COVID-19 scares us into destroying our economy? And what’s really happening in Italy and why? Coronavirus is a disease that might destroy the US economy if we’re not careful.
The law of quarantines is quite broad. However, there are some Constitutional limitations, which is why most shelter-in-place orders are very broad with many exceptions. Michael describes the law, the exceptions, and the latitude people have to travel and do necessary things.
Why is the FDA and the CDC dragging their feet on off-label use when clinical trials in four countries, and patient usage in Kansas, already shows efficacy in treatment of COVID-19?
Vinal Technical High School in Connecticut is offering an emergency management block for high schoolers enrolled in technical/trade classes. This unique program offers a full emergency operations center and gives students real life experiences in responding to natural and manmade disasters. This is a great example of what high schools could be doing to train future emergency managers, police officers, firefighters and others. Other high schools with technical/trade programs should emulate this kind of program for students who want a practical, trade/technical based education.
The EU decides that climate change is not about saving the planet, but about saving people. It just doesn’t make any sense. And, a couple of cases provide a good take on the law of self defense and the stealth attacks on the Second Amendment.
Michael explains how we won’t ever know if the safety measures actually worked or not. How this cancellation contagion is impacting society and the economy. The Dunning Kruger effect makes people believe they are experts – when in fact they are not. When will the government go too far? President Trump issues guidance for the next 15 days, but most governors are shutting down businesses and schools for up to 30 days or more, sometimes indefinitely. Is this an overreaction to coronavirus and COVID-19? Just think about. There’s not right or wrong answer.
Michael explains the legalities about the government mandating business closures and social distancing. What the new guidelines President Trump issued means and eating out at restaurants.
COVID-19 has now reached a tipping point, with massive closures of sporting events, public gatherings. Panic buying, stock market collapse. And, public health authorities with their states of emergency are beginning to get awfully close to the limits of constitutionality. At what point does the public begin, if ever, to push back?
Michael walks through his reasoning that the Democratic National Committee is throwing Joe Biden under the bus in order to prevent Bernie Sanders from taking control of their party. Listen to Bernie. Then listen to Joe.
Why is there such panic and almost mass hysteria over the coronavirus and COVID-19 disease it causes? And, are Democrats deliberately sabotaging President Trump’s attempts to contain the outbreak? California Governor Gavin Newsom refuses to take the bait from a reporter and instead praises President Trump and the Administration for their response to the virus.
Michael provides some facts about coronavirus and Covid-19 and asks a tough but needed question. Are all of the containment, quarantine and mitigation efforts worth the economic costs to save a very small percentage of people who might contract a severe case of the virus and because of pre-existing chronic conditions, be subject to death or expensive medical treatment? The economic disruption is costing people jobs, income, stability and creating fear and almost mass hysteria. Is it worth it?
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) attacked Associate Supreme Court Justices Kavanaugh and Gorsuch at a pro-choice rally, for which he was promptly rebuked by Senator Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. But the danger in Schumer’s attack is his de-legitimizing the court itself. And, Boston considers parking ticket fines based on “ability to pay.” That could very well survive an equal protection attack, leading to a whole bunch of other things being based on ability to pay.
Michael walks through a couple of taxpayer relief shots, one of which proves why you do need an AR15 to defend your home. And, is Joe Biden the presumptive Democrat nominee for President because establishment Democrats don’t want to turn control of the party over to the socialist wing controlled by Bernie Sanders?
Michael describes the new assymetrical warfare we're engaged in post 9/11. Are we prepared for this type of warfare?
Michael wonders if Joe Biden really is losing it to the point he shouldn’t be nominated by the Democrats. Legal immigrants from Mexico have their restaurant harassed because they attended a Trump rally. The idea of canceling people based on who they support is un-American. And Beto O’Rourke is back to take away your guns.
Michael provides his analysis of Super Tuesday voting and what it means for Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, and Michael Bloomberg. A brokered convention is even more likely with other candidates withdrawing their candidacies. And, Michael is more and more concerned about the mental capacity of Joe Biden. The gaffes are getting worse, not better.
Finally, would it be possible to have someone record the following and put it at the end of every podcast?

The Situation with Michael Brown is written by Michael Brown and produced by Right Turn Media. Marketing and social media are by Wholecrowd.”
A three person family decides to raise their children as non-binary, genderless children. What are the ramifications? Free tampons are apparently a human right. And, is Bernie Sanders’ socialism simply un-American?
The Supreme Court ruled on the “public charge” rule that says immigrants cannot be on any social safety net programs in order to obtain a green card or citizenship. Is the policy too hard or too lenient? And, can or should the Democrats try stop Bernie Sanders at this point?
Michael discusses whether one should vote for a candidate based on their personalities or their policies. And, Cambridge, Massachusetts decides to chip away at the rule of law for illegal aliens.
Michael explains why holdovers from previous presidential administrations need to be removed, sooner rather than later. President Trump finally removes 70 staffers from the National Security Council who were Obama holdovers. He should have removed these people 3 years ago. Better late than never.
Republicans in South Carolina are calling for another “Operation Chaos” in order to both choose Bernie Sanders in the Democrat primary; and, to show South Carolina legislators the problem with open primaries, where anyone can vote for anyone regardless of party affiliation.
Vice President Joe Biden claims to support transparency. But when it comes to his endowed program at the University of Delaware, even Freedom of Information Act requests are illegal. So much for transparency. It’s another example of the inside-the-beltway revolving door that diminishes our politics.
Michael discusses the post-impeachment fallout and the reactions to the National Prayer Breakfast at which President Trump excoriated his political opponents.
A lot of talk has been swirling about the Democrat attempt to impeach President Trump; and, that if a Democrat, especially Joe Biden, wins the Presidency in 2020, Republicans should impeach him if they gain control of the U.S. House of Representatives. They call it “weaponizing impeachment.” Doing so would be a huge danger to the survival of this republic. Republicans should not impeach solely for retaliation. If Joe or Hunter Biden have committed crimes, those should be investigated and if found to have a basis in fact, then those alleged crimes should be referred to the Department of Justice for prosecution. But not impeachment at that stage.
Tennessee Senator Lamar Alexander voted against additional witnesses in the impeachment trial of Donald Trump. The Wall Street Journal called it his “finest hour.” While his reasoning is sound, logical and conforms to Constitutional standards, did he vote against witnesses for those principled reasons, or because he is no longer seeking re-election to the U.S. Senate?
A study from Cambridge University shows that support for democracy or republican, representative form of government is waning worldwide, including within the United States. Why is that and what can we do to counter it? Michael gives a few suggestions.
Michael discusses the current polling in Iowa and New Hampshire among Democrat contenders for their party’s presidential nomination. Michael is hoping for an eventual contest between President Donald Trump and self-avowed socialist and U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders. That would present voters with a stark contrast between socialism and capitalism. What do you think?
San Francisco restaurants are closing at an alarming rate because of increased costs and tighter profit margins. Yet, those same restaurants are adding a surcharge to customers’ tabs to help fight climate change. This is the absurdity of policy that has no measurable impact, but makes policymakers feel good about what they’re doing.
Are progressives really dumb enough to go after the Second Amendment? New Zealand continues its gun buy-back program after the Christchurch shooting. But is it working? And what happens when it ensnares an innocent man because he dared to speak out against the buy-back program?
Michael dissects the lawsuit filed by presidential candidate and congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard against Hillary Clinton for saying that Ms. Gabbard was a Russian agent or asset. Will the lawsuit succeed since all parties are considered “public figures?” Ms. Gabbard has also sued Google for not displaying advertising she bought during one of the presidential debates. That lawsuit, if the facts are correct, might have a better chance of success.
During a Q&A session at a Martin Luther King Day event, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says Democrats are a center-conservative party, not a left-wing party. Michael describes Orwell’s Newspeak from his novel “1984” and how AOC is using Newspeak to fool her listeners into thinking they stand for something entirely different from what they actually advocate, such as socialized medicine
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell submitted the Senate Resolution to deal with impeach procedures. Michael breaks down the resolution and explains the role of the House and Senate in these proceedings. The Senate should only consider the material and witnesses used by the House of Representatives to impeach Donald Trump. The Senate should not call additional witnesses or subpoena additional material. The Senate should rely on the case made by the U.S. House of Representatives and not supplement the shoddy work done by Democrats in the House.
President Trump’s legal team has submitted their impeachment defense brief to the U.S. Senate. Michael has skimmed through the pertinent parts and focuses his discussion on the sections regarding Ukraine and the impeachment article on abuse of power.
Michael interviews syndicated columnist and author Michelle Malkin on immigration issues.
Michael has always maintained that yes, there are problems in the world. But too often we fail to change our perspective on just how much progress humankind is making. For example, the percentage of people living in extreme poverty has dropped in his lifetime from 60% to 10%. That is fantastic progress. Somewhere in a lab, an R&D facility, a garage, someone or a team is coming up with solutions that we think are intractable. Let’s change our perspective about problems. We live in amazing times.
Actor, comedian and Libertarian Vince Vaughn commits the cardinal sin of shaking President Trump’s hand. The cancel culture trolls come out in force calling for a boycott of the actor. But Colby Smith, an Iraq War veteran, has written a Facebook post about Vince Vaughn that everyone should hear before you jump on the cancel culture bandwagon. Cancel culture is a cancer on free speech, individual liberty, freedom of opinion and should be resisted wherever it raises its ugly head.
Everyone is in a dither over a “motion to dismiss” the articles of impeachment against Donald Trump. Here’s the real story about that situation and how it may or may not play out. Nancy Pelosi is under pressure from Republicans and Democrats to send the articles of impeachment to the Senate. We’ll see if she does that today after the House votes. Then, we get to watch Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell set down the procedural rules for how the impeachment will proceed. Ignore the noise coming from both sides. Here’s how it will probably play out.
Maggie Haberman of the New York Times believes somehow that American journalists face the same threats as Iranian journalists because President Trump refers to American journalists as “enemies of the people.” Any American journalist who believes that is living in bubble of delusion.
In the aftermath of Iran admitting that they were responsible for the downing of the Ukrainian airplane in which 82 of the 176 passengers killed were Iranians, scores of angry Iranians are in the second day of protests at universities in Tehran and throughout the city as they demand that the Ayatolla and officials step down. The protesters are taking a substantial risk in voicing their demands as just two months ago, the regime killed more than 1,500 protesters.
CNN has settled the defamation lawsuit brought by Covington Catholic High School student Nick Sandmann for its coverage of his encounter with Native American activist Nathan Philips. The settlement is undisclosed but Michael breaks down what it means and why CNN probably settled. Reason Magazine thinks the lawsuit could have a chilling effect on journalism. Michael thinks it will have the opposite effect.
Michael filled in for another talk radio host today and this is his discussion on the Iranian crisis after having had a day to consume additional information about the Iranian attacks.
Michael has just returned late from Washington, DC. After reading as much of the news as possible about the Iranian missile strikes in Iraq earlier, he doesn’t believe this is as serious as the media and pundits portray it to be. See if you agree; or, if his opinion is “overtaken by events” tomorrow.
Slate Magazine has an article claiming that the sanctuary city movement for illegal aliens is different than the sanctuary city movement for Second Amendment rights. Is is a false equivalency as they claim? Michael breaks down the article to compare the two movements from the left’s point of view.
Michael unplugged for almost two weeks. He talks about how refreshing it was to not pay attention to the news. And, a Denver judge ruled the city’s camping ban unconstitutional on the grounds that it is cruel and unusual punishment. Michael describes how this judge acted as an activist to get what he wanted, regardless of the Constitutional issues. How is banning anyone from camping in a public place cruel and unusual punishment? Remember, the ban applies to everyone, not just the homeless.
Back at the beginning of the month, I asked all of you what gives meaning to your life. I never expected the response I would get. I have picked three of the most personal and fascinating emails to share with you. Perhaps like me, you’ll learn something from their stories. Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Judge Rosemary Collyer issued a stunning rebuke to the FBI and it’s handling of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants in the Russian election probe. I believe the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act needs to be reformed, if not discarded. There is a difference between intelligence gathering and criminal prosecutions. Due process is absent in FISA warrant applications, and there is no checks and balances to ensure due process. Congress must act to reform this system because we cannot - and should not - rely on the miscreants in the FBI to reform itself.
The Wall Street Journal is publishing a series of vignettes by 20-somethings about the phrase “OK Boomer” and what it means to them. So I dissect three of the essays. Needless to say, I have a little bit of a quarrel with some of their opinions. But then, I’m just a “boomer.”
What does that money in your pocket say? It’s a note from the Federal Reserve or fiat currency. In Greece, there is such a strong underground economy that the government is going to mandate citizens to spend thirty percent of their money electronically or face a fine. Just another way for the government to find out where and how you spend your money? Sure, and a way for the government to make money at the same time.
Perjury and lying are in the news. Paul Manafort, Lt. General Michael Flynn and others, all charged with perjury or lying to investigators. Remember Martha Stewart? Acquitted on insider trading charges, but guilty on lying to the feds. Don’t talk to law enforcement without a lawyer present. You could get caught in a trap. So here’s what you need to know about lying to the federal government. And no, I don’t discuss the consequences of the federal government lying to you.
Michael has noticed fewer people in his local Chick-fil-A. Coincidence or a result of the change in the Chick-Fil-A Foundation corporate giving, now geared toward “social responsibility?” What are we to do if we don’t like some of the things corporations do? Boycott?
Could it happen here? Of course it could. The Chinese government uses a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack on the Hong Kong protestors organizational platform, HINKG. What are the lessons for us? Vigilance against government control of the Internet.
Michael provides a description of the job of federal Inspectors General. Understanding their jobs is key to understanding Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz’ FISA Abuse Report. There are 17 abuses described by the IG. Michael details 10 of the most important and why the media narrative is wrong to claim the IG report shows no wrongdoing.
Michael walked through an interview of South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham’s Sunday interview on Fox Business. In this interview the Senator explains why the impeachment process has been a sham; and, why it is doomed to failed in the U.S. Senate
Michael wants you to think about the unintended consequences of Senator Elizabeth Warren’s claim to abolish the Electoral College
Are you annoying? In one county in New York, being “annoying” can get you arrested and face one year in jail and up to $5,000 in fines. Is this constitutional? Obviously not. But that didn’t prevent them from passing the ordinance. This is an example of power hungry legislators always thinking “there ought to be a law.” No, we don’t always need laws. And we certainly don’t need laws that clog up the courts contesting the obvious unconstitutionality of something as stupid as outlawing being annoying to a first responder.
A resurgent left-wing party in the United Kingdom is out with its manifesto. That’s right. A manifesto instead of a platform. Michael dissects that parallels between the UK Labour Party’s manifesto and the policy positions of Democrats running for President in the United States. Are those parallels a harbinger of the 2020 elections in the U.S.?
Michael is honest about struggling with podcast topics and meaningful work. He asks you to email him about what it is that you do that gives meaning to your life.
London officials release terrorists from jail early, and they go on the attack. What should we do with terrorists? And more killings are occurring in Mexico. The cartels almost run parallel governments. If Mexico becomes a failed state, what is the role of the United States?
Angela Merkel says we have to ban hate speech in order to preserve free speech. That’s like burning down the house to save the house. Journalist Andy Ngo gets temporarily banned by Twitter for stating “objective facts” that Twitter deems “hateful.” So now facts can be imbued with emotion like hate?
Bloomberg News will not be covering, investigating or otherwise reporting on Michael Bloomberg’s presidential run. And interestingly, they have extended that same courtesy to the other Democratic presidential candidates. The reporters’ union at Bloomberg is upset and has filed a protest over the ban. The question is, should reporters from Bloomberg be prevented from covering their boss, who is now running for public office?
While the elections were for “municipal councilors” who really don’t have much authority, the Hong Kong elections were a stunning defeat for President Xi of China and a strong show of support by average Hong Kongers for the protestors. The United States and President Trump should continue to support the freedom movement in Hong Kong, even in trade talks with China.
We’re so dependent on the electrical grid for virtually everything we do in business and our private lives. Attacks in Ukraine five years ago may have been a signal for the kinds of attacks that are occurring on American power grids today. How safe is the grid; and, are you ready if the power goes out?
Wednesday night’s Democrat presidential candidate debate exposed the fissure between the two parties. Democrats are advocating socialist, planned economy policies while Republicans are still the party of free-market policies. But no one is pointing out those differences or admitting what Democrats are truly proposing.
A judge in Florida granted a search warrant allowing the widespread search of DNA databases to try and solve a criminal case. Despite some terms of service requiring customers to consent to the release of their DNA to law enforcement, those same terms of service allow the companies to release your data if it is in accordance with a duly-issued search warrant. What if you get caught up in a false-positive match? Now you have to expend significant resources to prove you’re not the criminal. Still believe that you have “nothing to hide?"
Michael finds an old article that talks about the costs of “saving just one life.” Denver has a program called Vision Zero that seeks to reduce traffic fatalities to zero. That is an unrealistic goal that results in public cynicism, but makes people “feel good” because of the loftiness of the goal. But that is not how you set public policy..
Michael spent the weekend listening and reading about the impeachment proceedings. It finally boiled down to two Wall Street Journal columnists: Peggy Noonan and Kimberly Strassel. Peggy focused on style; Kimberly on substance. It summed up the entire process for me. This is about politics, not the serious business of removing a President from office. This is about damaging the 2020 GOP nominee, Donald Trump.
The annual economic freedom list is out. The stark contrast between capitalist countries and socialist countries becomes greater every single year. This is a side-by-side comparison of capitalist countries vs. socialist countries. A few statistics to offer your socialist friends who are being the useful idiots that believe a planned economy will be great for the United States.
A new study out of Minnesota indicates we might actually be training school shooters by focusing so much energy and time on active shooter drills
What is the Supreme Court case really about concerning DACA? Michael explains that the key element of the case is whether or not the Immigration and Naturalization Act gives discretion to the Executive Branch (i.e. the President) to choose whether or not to enforce deportation laws against DACA individuals. How the court decides will depend on whether the justices read the plain meaning of the statute. There is also a “reliance” issue but Michael says not to focus on that issue until the court renders its opinion.
Michael engages an economic illiterate person on Twitter and ends up going down the rabbit hole of federal spending. Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates can’t bail out the federal government, even if we confiscate all of their wealth.
Michael gives a brief history of the fall of the Berlin Wall and the demise of the Workers United Party of Poland. And of course, it’s Veterans Day, a time to honor all who serve in the US military.
Michael explains how to view the impeachment process taking place on Capitol Hill. It is a purely political process and not a legal process. While Senators will be “jurors” if impeachment articles are passed in the U.S. House, that does not mean they are acting as “legal” jurors in the sense of a criminal or civil case. Look at impeachment as a political process and you’ll be better able to filter what both Democrats and Republicans are saying about the process.
American families, women, and children are ambushed and murdered in cold blood by Mexican drug cartels not far from the American border. Is Mexico about to become a failed state? And if so, what is the role of the U.S. military?
Michael gets an iHeart email from the company’s Chief Privacy Officer detailing the new California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018. So Michael did some digging around to find out just what that law does. Shocker. More people are tracking and giving you a score than just FICO. Ouch!
The Second Amendment guarantees an individual right to keep and bear arms. So what does that phrase about a well-regulated militia really mean?
What do countries like China, Russia and Iran have to do with the freedom of the internet? They’re cracking down, and that could result in the balkanization of the internet. Could the US be far behind?
The average American commits three felonies a day - and they don’t even know it. James Madison pointed out in Federalist 62 that if the government enacts too many laws, Americans will soon have contempt for the law. That is happening today and no one understands it - or believes it. We are drowning in laws that don’t even require criminal intent yet can result in criminal penalties. If you think “there oughta’ be a law” then you need to go to your local library and look at the row upon row of statutes, rules and regulations that apply to everyone in America. It’ll scare you to death. And should.
Michael talks about the history of nations that have suffered economic decline and how they have gone to war, or become expansionist, or taken on adversaries as a way to deflect from economic problems. China is suffering from the longest economic slowdown in its history. What does that mean for the U.S. and the rest of the world?
Amazon’s Ring doorbell division is giving out user information to police departments. If you have a Ring doorbell at your home, law enforcement may know whether or not you have agreed to turn over footage from your doorbell, regardless of whether you’re under investigation or not. Privacy rights be damned. And, the Fourth Amendment takes another small hit.
The House Democrats are approaching impeachment exactly backwards from the way it has always been done. That is unfair to you and me and to President Trump. It is a dangerous process they are using and proves that Alexis de Tocqueville was correct in 1835 when he predicted a morally corrupt Congress would use impeachment to illegally remove political opponents.
The Narco-Terrorist state on our southern border just defeated the Mexican military. Mexico isn’t faring well in its war against the drug cartels - and that’s a problem for the United States.
Michael digs behind the rise of Greta Thunberg to see the who/what/where/when/why (The 5 W’s) of her meteoric rise to fame and media attention. The usual suspects are found. And, it is a great lesson in why people need to be discerning consumers of news.
General William McRaven pens an op-ed in the New York Times attacking Donald Trump, but wrapping his criticism in a tapestry of love for the military. Michael deconstructs the editorial and challenges the General to back up his criticism.
A recently declassified FISA court ruling shows the FBI improperly surveilled American citizens in violation of the Constitution’s Fourth Amendment prohibition against unreasonable searches and seizures. What does this mean for you? Even those who say they have “nothing to hide” might still be illegally searched by the FBI in violation of the Constitution.
Michael describes 16th Century Star Chambers and how the secretive process used in the current so-called “impeachment inquiry” is wrong. The hearings should be open and due process afforded the President. More importantly, though, the American public deserves to hear the testimony of witnesses because public opinion will be a significant factor in whether or not to impeach a President.
Michael unloads on LeBron James of the Lakers for his anti-American comments about Hong Kong and China. He compares those comments to Enes Kanter of the Boston Celtics who pens an op-ed in the Boston Globe about his appreciation for America and all it has to offer.
Michael goes in depth on the need for discipline inside the White House. President Trump’s lack of a disciplined staff could cost him re-election or, result in an impeachment.
A Wall Street Journal story about a University of Lincoln-Nebraska study showing that politics is having an ill-effect of peoples health has Michael worried. If politics is making you sick, physically or mentally, please check out for a bit. It’s not worth it.
President Trump has signed two executive orders attempting to rein in the administrative state and make it easier for citizens to participate in rule making. Michael thinks they’re a good start, but don’t necessarily go far enough. And, Michael explains how rule making works and why it’s so invasive in our lives. Finally, Michael issues a challenge to his listeners.
Michael Brown fills in on KHOW for a 4th again, and tells a story about his own personal run-in with former Colorado governor John Hickenlooper. Also, the curious case of 'Sexy Vegan' is explored, after his infamous appearance on The Dr. Phil Show - and his arrest on charges of sexually assaulting an animal. Matt Lauer faces more sexual assault accusations of his own, and Michael actually defends him - after further investigation of the facts in the case.
Michael Brown fills in for a 3rd hour on KHOW, reading suggestions from listeners on a hypothetical Netflix series following 'Sexy Vegan's 'adventures' in the general prison population - after sexually assaulting his dog and posting it online. Michael also delivers a 'Taxpayer Relief Shot' from a Chick-Fil-A in Nebraska, and criticizes the NBA's feckless behavior toward China in the midst of a revolution in Hong Kong.
Michael provides a brief history of impeachment and walks through the President’s counsel’s letter to the House Speaker on due process.
Michael Brown harkens back to radio of yesteryear when airing prank phone calls were the norm - including the legendary R.D. Mercer. FCC rules have since banned the airing of individuals without their knowledge or consent. Michael also explores the world of 'Taxpayer Relief Shots' including a dog shooting a person in Enid, Oklahoma. The 911 call is hilarious.
Michael walks through a couple of examples of extreme risk protective orders (ERPO's) and how they are getting people killed and violate due process.
Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders want a wealth tax. What would that do to the economy? And why won’t Speaker Nancy Pelosi hold a formal vote on an impeachment inquiry? Because she’ll lose members in swing districts around the country.
Michael had to refill a prescription for Olopatadine HCI and the cost shocked him. So he walks through a debate Dr. Friedman had about drug reimportation, price controls, and why it costs so much to invent, produce and distribute a new drug.
Michael read an article in Wednesday’s Wall Street Journal about migrants fleeing Venezuela and was shocked to read about a woman in Denver, Colorado, helping migrants escape their own country. And it made him think - if she can do that, why can’t you and I help in some way, even if it’s a country other than Venezuela. We don’t have to sponsor them to come to the U.S., but may help them escape the tyranny they face to a country of their own choice. Americans have so much fortune to live in freedom. We have a gift that we should share when and where possible.
We’re abusing kids by scaring them about climate change. Listen to Kamala Harris comfort a child unnecessarily fearful for her life over the climate. Bernie Sanders wants a litmus test for Supreme Court justices. That’s just wrong. Rashida Tlaib is under an ethics investigation, but it’s more than an ethics problem. And Michael is upset over a Hong Kong protestor being shot by a government goon.
Michael provides an in-depth description of the politics behind the latest impeachment move against Donald Trump.
Michael talks about the two points in the impeachment debate that need some facts before we make a judgment. Kamala Harris excuses Joe Biden’s behavior. Chicago files state terrorism charges against an individual. Should we have “state” terrorism crimes? Good Morning America actually lies about their own poll on impeachment. The UN had a climate hearing in 1992, and kids showed up then, too. Mattel introduces a gender neutral doll, implying that masculine men cannot be nurturing fathers. What baloney. CBS Sunday Morning interviews Hillary Clinton who claims Trump is an illegitimate president. The statement goes unchallenged, of course.
Michael discusses Nancy Pelosi's decision to start an impeachment inquiry over Donald Trump's Ukraine phone calls.
Robert Francis O’Rourke says that black transgender women in the United States are killed with impunity. Huh? A Colorado audit studies $100 million in school safety funding and can’t find any tangible results. A man refuses to have children because of climate change, claiming the world is dead. Megan Fox tells viewers she lets her six year old son wear dresses to school, despite taunts from classmates. Tom Steyer compares his impeachment crusade to the fight against the Nazi’s. And, knife control is officially a real thing in the United Kingdom.
Michael dissects the Trump, Biden, Ukraine kerfuffle. Is there really a problem here? It’s climate week at the United Nations and there is a lot of stupid stuff being said. Jerry Nadler says we’re going to be reduced to bacteria. And a bunch of 11-year-olds are scare and anxious over nothing, except the propaganda they’re being fed by adults abusing them. Marianne Williamson is asked why she opposed nuclear energy, and her reasons give insight into how liberal minds think. And it’s not logic. And OAN has the five stories the mainstream media didn’t cover last week. Did you hear about them?
A Russian Orthodox priest sprinkles Holy Water from an airplane attempting to reduce drunkenness. Michael explains just how must the Russians love vodka and how the Russians corrupted him with vodka. The National Institutes of Health have gone nuts with gender requirements. And, a few Friday statistics just to put things in perspective.
Michael uses a taxpayer relief shot from Georgia to show how the idea of “universal background checks” simply will not stop gun violence. This is a classic example not to be missed. The Manhattan District Attorney goes after Donald Trump’s and the Trump Organization’s tax returns. That will probably backfire on Democrats but is actually an example of a larger problem - the politicization of policy differences or election outcomes. And, we go back in time to 1987 when the mainstream media attacked Joe Biden. Today, they have a different take on Joe Biden simply because they want to beat Donald Trump.
Marianne Williamson is caught on a hot mic saying conservatives are nicer than liberals. She’s right. Liberals are the mean-spirited people. Chik-fil-A and Purdue University have a standoff, and the chicken sandwich wins. Elizabeth Warren says very few Americans trust government. So she has a plan to…..turn over everything to the government. And this woman is a US Senator! Michael describes an assault on the Washington DC Metro subway. It’s why everyone should learn some form of self defense - a gun, a knife, martial arts, something to defend yourself when needed.
Michael is on a tirade about Senator Chris Coons (D-DE) who tries to justify anti-gun policies by claiming to take his son skeet shooting and hunting. Why do politicians always say “I’m a gun owner and hunter, but…” Anytime someone says “I support this or that but….” pay close attention. They’re probably trying to convince you that their position is legitimate when it’s not. The New York Times is upset about freelance reporters digging up racist or anti-Semitic tweets by their own reporters; and, they’re lying about a FEMA official they claim is tied to President Trump.
Michael and Christian discuss the new comedy specials by Dave Chappelle and Bill Burr currently on Netflix. The two specials are pushing against the PC culture that is ruining comedy and are worth watching despite the vulgarity. Look past the F-bombs and recognize what these comedians are doing. It’s about time!
President Trump has proposed banning vaping products. Since when are conservatives in favor of always banning something they don’t like? Michael doesn’t think it’s a conservative political position. Maybe RJ Reynolds Tobacco is behind the ban? CNN’s 9/11 message is way off base. Penguin gender identity is a thing in the United Kingdom. Who know penguins cared? The North Carolina congressional special election is no big surprise, except to the media. Papa John’s Pizza is still being dragged through the mud over the use of the “n-word."
Michael reminds us of why we should “never forget” and what we should “never forget” on 9/11.
Michael explains why he thinks negotiating with the Taliban is a good idea, even if it’s done at Camp David. General Mattis shuts down Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC over NATO. Michael explains why President Trump’s actions with NATO, China and other issues is a refreshing approach. Isn’t he doing what we’ve been asking President’s to do for decades? Joe Biden personifies the dangers of the Democrat candidates. They will destroy the U.S. economy and our way of life. Rahm Emanuel even agrees with Michael (but don’t tell the Democrats). Sharpiegate and Hurricane Dorian won’t go away. Michael has the soundbite to prove Trump was right. And television station KTLA proves the maxim that dead men don’t talk.
Michael dissects a federal court case ruling that the no fly list is unconstitutional. That is an appropriate ruling for this week of 9/11 rememberances. David Hogg thinks American genocide is caused by white supremacy. Wait, indigenous genocide of American Indians happened more than a century ago. Why are still so guilt ridden? Because liberals hate America and think our mistakes or wrongdoing outweighs all the good this nation has done. And, Michael proves Sharpiegate is all wrong. Hurricane Dorian was predated at one point to go into the Gulf of Mexico. President Trump got some bad staffing.
Michael’s favorite The View host, Whoopi Goldberg, actually makes some sense. But then a broken clock is right twice a day. Hurricane Dorian and hurricane forecast modeling. What can we learn about that with respect to climate change? Comprehensive background checks are a way to turn innocent people into criminals. And Michael is fascinated by a certain kind of taxpayer relief shot.
Hong Kong backs of the extradition law. But what does it really mean and how does it affect the protests for democracy? Michael explains. Africa is poor and John Stossel talks to an African entrepreneur who explains why. Could it happen in the US? Of course. Walmart and Kroger come out against guns. It’s infuriating and nothing more than virtue signaling. Bloomberg reporter Ben Penn gets a Trump trophy and he shouldn’t have. Trump missed an opportunity to go after Bloomberg.
Michael talks about the lack of service and how people are more impatient than ever. Fox Business’ Stuart Varney interviewed Michael Tuesday, and it reminded Michael about the fascination the public has with President’s during natural disasters. Why is that? Governor Andrew Cuomo is going to cause blackouts in New York. Can you guess why? Michael explains.
Michael is tired of the politicization of gun violence, murderers. Did you hear the number of shootings and killings in Chicago? Of course not. It doesn’t fit the progressive agenda. How dependent are you on the Internet? How does shutting down the Internet limit freedom? It’s happening more than you realize. And, it’s dangerous. Roman Polanski is given a standing ovation at the Venice Film Festival. I guess that’s the death of the #MeToo movement. The truth comes out about climate change - from the United Nations. And Dan Crenshaw eviscerates liberals on their criticism of the electoral college.
Michael announces his return to radio after Labor Day. There is a funny story about non-binary lesbians, and of course, Michael can’t resist having fun with it. Know Greta Thunberg? You will after listening to this. Let’s call carbon offsets carbon Indulgences. The OIG report is out on former FBI Director James Comey. It isn’t good. But the DOJ won’t prosecute. That may not be the end of the story. Why is price gouging bad? Michael doesn’t think it is. And, let’s let kids vote at age 16! No!
Michael goes in depth in the first part of the podcast on Democrats’ blue print for turning Colorado blue and how they’re taking that plan to swing states. Pay attention to how retail politics work. The Denver Police Department waits 18 hours to tell the public about a mob in Lower Downtown Denver. Why? Electric vehicles in Australia emit more CO2 than gas-powered engines. Nissan develops a golf ball that is well, like a deep fake. Is nothing real in the world? Speaking of which KFC is testing fake chicken. Brett Stephens of the New York Times quits after being called a bed bug. Following up on yesterday’s story, Michael is surprised that Stephens was so offended that he dropped off Twitter. And, a taxpayer relief shot.
Bed bugs are generally found where people sleep. So, do people at the New York Times sleep on the job? The NYT also tries to justify birthright citizenship and fails. Michael has a few self-defense taxpayer relief shots. Financial services firms in Caifornia are being pressured to not do business with gun manufacturers. Michael ties this attempt to the recent opioid crisis lawsuit in Oklahoma. Oddly there are a lot of McDonalds stories in the news today and they’re hilarious. But should cops take free food? Politico has an article about lesbians endorsing Pete Buttigieg and Michael uses the story to explain what identity politics is and why is it is based on cultural Marxism. Alaskan glaciers are retreating. Sounds awful, right? But scientists have discovered 1,000 year old forests under the glaciers, revealing a medieval warm period. So the climate does change and always has.
How many times will the media lie about the Amazon rainforest fires? Joe Biden tells a crowd he’s not nuts. If you have to explain you’re not nuts, you might be nuts. Are social scores like those in China coming to the US? They’re already here. Andrew Luck retires and the fans’ reaction is exactly what’s wrong with American society. What is the real cost of the progressive agenda?
NOAA now admits there is no “global warming” in the U.S. Brit Hume thinks Joe Biden might be getting senile. Duh. CNN has a Duke psychiatrist on air that claims President Trump has killed millions more than Hitler, Stalin and Mao. And CNN let’s it stand. Trump puts a consulate in Greenland. ABC 2020 flashback with John Stossel from 2007 on guns. Would that report run today? Probably not. And there is a Michigan Appeals Court case that you need to know about conceal carry. The Democrat National Committee has a preacher claim the Bible and the Constitution support socialism. He’s dead wrong. Meet Jean Cramer. A racist. And, an idiot. Vegans would save animals before humans. Shocked? There was a “Butt-Con” in New York. Prozac has been around for 30 years. What’s it doing to us? And, RealID takes effect soon. And Michael is on a tirade about it.
It’s FRIDAY! Time for Hollywood in Toto. Michael and Christian Toto discuss Bill Maher, Piers Morgan, The Simpsons.
Have you ever thought about how far humans have advanced? Then why are we being told to turn down our air conditioning? Jill Biden is gaffe prone just like her husband. Condoleeza Rice goes on The View and explains why she supports the 2nd Amendment. Warrantless phone searches are bad. There are now ICE lawsuits and there don’t need to be lawsuits if we just changed immigration law.
Rashida Tlaib is being hypocritical about her trip to Israel. The Palestinian Authority does not recognize LGBT rights. Maurice Hill is a devout Muslim. Is that why the media failed to extend coverage of the Philadelphia shootings? Elizabeth Warren suffers from cognitive dissonance and has a Native American plan. Fake books, including 1984, are appearing on Amazon. Seaweed might stop cow farts. Twitter accepts then rejects money from China. Kamala Harris is a nut job when it comes to guns.
Omar and Tlaib and true anti-Semites. The New York Times admits they should be covering them, but aren’t. The Portland protests are covered, but not fairly. The Philly shooting says something is wrong in America, and it’s not the guns. TSA employee mocks a passenger. Hong Kong and Russian protests are growing stronger. There’s a defecation crisis in LA and San Francisco. But there wasn’t during the depression when homelessness was greater. Why? A University of South Dakota law school program says whites are “taking up space.” Jason Tiller lists the left’s Top Ten Contradictions. Small penises are a thing. Seriously. And how often do you change your underwear?
Christian Toto joins Michael to talk about the intersection of Hollywood, politics, and culture. It’s our little corner of intersectionality. And, because it’s Friday, Michael has some weird, and stupid, stories.
The mayor of San Jose proposes gun owners buy liability insurance. What could possibly be wrong with that idea? CNN has OCD about impeachment. Bill Nye wants to be a millionaire. I thought progressives were opposed to millionaires and billionaires. San Antonio ICE facility shot at. Where’s the condemnation? Tom Steyer enters the Democrat nomination fray and it ticks off the other contenders. Grab the popcorn. 57 miles of new border wall goes up near San Diego and its working. Brittany Spears goes to Target. Who cares? Project Veritas and Google whistleblower. What’s really going on here? Congressman Steve King says something really stupid. Judge for yourself. A town in Sweden has four rapes over the weekend. What do the cops say? Do you need an emotional support pig? And the best/worst story of the day - the Chicago Tribune reports on a shooting in Chicago and it has Michael questioning their motives.
Chris Cuomo is upset someone called him Fredo, and tries to claim it’s a racial slur. He’s full of crap. Senator Tim Scott explains why Donald Trump is not a racist. Hong Kong protests continue, using American flags. President Trump’s reaction is weak, at best, while Mitch McConnell’s reaction is perfect. Was there a mass shooting in Chicago over the weekend? 4 people died. That’s the definition, right? CNN goes nuts over plastic straws. A teenage girls comes to the US to lecture us about climate change. Guns and ammo go missing in South Africa. Where’s Barney Fife? Rats in LA, and I’m not talking politicians. National Health Service in the UK and a BBC reporter think fat people should die. Is a cashless society smart? Always carry some cash. Judge Napolitano on red flag laws. Global poverty is in decline but no one knows it. The National Rifle Association (NRA) is in deep trouble over financial scandals. If you’re a member you should be asking questions.
John Hickenlooper is on CNN trying to explain Colorado’s gun laws from 2013. Nobody talks about the corresponding increase in crime after they were enacted. The Trump administration announces new rules on immigrants who are “public charges” or receiving welfare. Michael is sure that will trigger lots of people. Biden’s gaffes are famous, but should we really care? Bernie Sanders says climate change is the greatest national security threat to the United States. The Castro brothers double down on doxxing Trump campaign donors. This is a very dangerous trend that is anti-liberty and anti-freedom. It needs to stop. A bride takes too much in and sharts in a $15K wedding gown. What a mess! Elizabeth Warren attacks the Second Amendment, while Tulsi Gabbard says WalMart has the right to decide whether or not sell guns. Warren wants on a tax on everything. And, a few taxpayer relief shots, including a nude man. Ugh!
At age 15 Robert Francis Beto O’Rourke was a member of the Cult of Dead Cow’s hack group. He wrote a paper about killing little girls. Should a red flag law have put him in a mental institution or taken away any guns he might have owned? Congressman Dan Crenshaw talks about red flag laws and Michael thinks he’s way off base. A guy walks into a Walmart and….No, not that guy. Another guy. Was he lawfully exercising his Second Amendment rights? Michael says no. Jeffery Epstein is found dead. What should we take away from his death? The Attorney General, Bill Barr, unwittingly tells us. Al Gore is back in the news about global warming and it seems he and ABC News are using propaganda to convince us. And, The Hunt movie gets canceled. Michael wishes it hadn’t been canceled.
It’s time to get away from all of the madness for at least one episode. So let’s listen to Jim Gaffigan, R D Mercer, the dummies at the Democratic Socialists of America; and, of course, Christian Toto. Hollywood in Toto on Friday.
Frank Figliuzzi explains what 8/8 means. Get ready for some real dumbassery on this one. Brian Williams and MSNBC just follow along. Twitter leaves Antifa threats up. Sarah Palin is back in the news with her libel suit against the New York Times. The Census Bureau doesn’t want to hire citizens. Woman fights off intruder with…grease. Zeeland, Michigan has dead windmills. Taxpayers are footing the bill. And the Democrat Socialists of America, redux. The gift that keeps on giving.
Michael is appalled that former Congressman Trey Gowdy is willing to “subrogate” his rights to be more secure. In other words, willing to trade liberty for security. So disappointing. Joe Biden wants an assault weapons ban. How did that work out last time? Michael gives you the stats. Migrants are leaving Mexico to go home, giving up on their attempts at asylum. Democratic Socialists of America hold their convention and its hilarious. Trump announces sanctions against Maduro in Venezuela. Joaquin Castro outs Trump donors. This is getting out of control. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is upset about a cardboard cutout photograph of her. So she sits the mob on teenage boys, only to delete the tweet. San Francisco now has toilets for the homeless, with attendants!
Michael describes a Wall Street Journal editorial about social alienation of young men and how that applies to gun violence. A murderous weekend in Chicago, and the national media is silent. Why? An Eritrean asylum refugee kills a German boy. German is fed up with refugees. The United Nations wants to outlaw hate speech. Their examples are outrageous. The Who Was It Show is hilarious. Andrew Yang wants a news ombudsman. That’s nuts. AOC’s chief of staff resigns and is now under federal investigation for campaign finance violations. I thought AOC wanted transparency and big money out of politics. Child abuse by climate alarmists has Michael mad. And FEMA water bottles discovered abandoned in Puerto Rico. Why doesn’t the media ask territorial and local governments instead of FEMA? And, a couple of taxpayer relief shots.
Michael cites CDC evidence that there is not an epidemic of gun violence in the United States. And, he discusses the media coverage of the shootings over the past 72 hours. Finally, someone threatens Michael on Twitter with murder, and Twitter doesn’t care.
Christian Toto and Michael Brown discuss The View and the stupidity that black people can’t be racist. Professor Behar shows her lack of intelligence. Chris Matthews says that black people will be exterminated by President Trump. No seriously, he says that. And, during Hollywood in Toto we discuss the new Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino films.
In a hilarious moment of hypocrisy, Elijah Cummings is heard in 1999 saying the same things about his congressional district as President Trump. Michael’s take on campaign contributions. Illegal alien purchases baby to cross the border. CA law would require presidential candidates to disclose tax returns. Babylon Bee sues Snopes. Grab the popcorn. AOC says rioting is justified. Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) epitomizes the nanny state. 70-year-old woman jailed for feeding feral cats. A woman marries her dog. Farce! Milton Friedman’s birthday is this week and it’s time to hear him again, particularly in light of the Democrats’ debate, where they want a controlled economy.
Senator Ron Wyden goes to Juarez, finds a pregnant mother, and brings her to the U.S. so she can have an anchor baby. Why do we have birthright citizenship? It’s not the law. MSNBC & CNN lie about President Trump not being at Ground Zero on 9/11. Homeownership age is increasing steadily. Why? Amazon is causing pollution. Trump Straws Redux. California model curriculum is nutty. Woman pees on produce in Walmart while another puts hair remover in a bottle of conditioner. Charlamagne Tha God. Who’s that? He thinks blacks will end up in concentration camps. And South Africa continues its tradition of burning people with tire necklaces.
Michael is tired of the misinformation being spread about the 9/11 Victims Compensation Fund. He supports it for first responders, but not others. And, he wants to know what you think by going to his Facebook page. Antifa wants a civil war, but MoveOn.org says it’s Donald Trump pushing for a civil war. House Judiciary Committee continues to push for impeachment. There is now a cooling gel for your bra. Men think gifts. Some are suggesting we refreeze the Arctic to stop climate change. It doesn’t make sense to Michael. A killer amoeba is on the loose. But no reason to be scared. An asteroid passes earth and astronomers didn’t see it coming?
Michael talks about a new Trump Campaign video that describes AOC and the three amigos. There is a horrific story about Boko Haram and ISIS using children as suicide bombers. Yet Ilhan Omar asks for sympathy for ISIS members. Donald Trump's tweets about Elijah Cummings congressional district in Baltimore. It’s a lesson on how to interpret Trump’s tweets. Former Yankee Mariano Rivera is excoriated by the mainstream media for his Christian values. The Supreme Court rules in favor of border wall funding. MSNBC goes nuts over Trump. Guatemala capitulates on asylum rules. Satanic Temples have their own radio programs.
Michael and Christian dissect The View, of course. A woman gets cold fries at McDonalds. Smart diapers are a thing. And, Hollywood in Toto.
I watched the Mueller hearing so you wouldn’t have to. Here’s a take you probably won’t get elsewhere. Remember Trump telling those congressmen to “go back where they came from?” Guess who else said that but to Trump? I hate spam phone calls. Especially when I’m recording. Ilhan Omar hates white men. Gee, is that racist or what? A fight over bananas in Venezuela should be a lesson for Americans. And, seems there’s some anarchy in New York City.
Michael talks about the blackout in Venezuela and electromagnetic pulse attacks. Closed captioning is being used by Generation Z to deal with their ADD. Lawful gun owners are the least likely to commit crimes and the Washington Post admits that. A mass shooting in Tokyo? I thought they didn’t happen there. Sebastian Gorka was subjected to “go back to where you came” in 2017 and no one cared. Bernie Sanders can’t think of anything good about Elizabeth Warren. Fireworks and a Darwin award.
Michael has had too much caffeine this morning and can’t understand what Nancy Pelosi is saying. What is NAACT? Is that the same as the NAACP? Term limits. Good or bad? Rashida Tlaib wants to give money to people who didn’t earn it, from people who did earn it. Isn’t that redistribution of wealth? Cory Booker compares President Trump to George Wallace. Enough with the racism analogies, please. Elizabeth Warren thinks we’re in bad shape economically. Can she read? Nextdoor website is stupid. Berkeley abandons free speech for Newspeak. Buffalo, New York is the new Democratic Republic of the Congo. Who’s next?
Puerto Rico should become an independent country, not a state. Netflix loses subscribers. What does that mean for Big Tech? Hoax tweets catch a Georgia lawmaker lying. An Angel Mom gets banned from Twitter. Marianne Williamson leads an apology at a black church in Houston. It’s nuts. Bernie Sanders’ staff demands to be paid $15 an hour. Guess what Bernie does. He cuts their hours. I want Trump straws from his campaign website. A reporter goes to Somalia to show what a great country it is and gets killed by terrorists.
While we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon Mission and the first man on the moon, did you realize we’ve left junk and litter on the moon? We’re disgusting! A man is caught smuggling in a most unusual way. A guy gets mad at his wife for having an affair, so cuts off the penis of the wife’s lover. Which begs the question, when do we get stem cell therapy for penis reconstruction? Christian Toto joins to talk about The View and Scarlett Johansson.
Australia’s ABC News does an incredible story on the concentration and genocide of the Uyghurs’ culture in China. Michael wants you to watch the video about these human rights abuses at
https://www.abc.net.au/4corners/tell-the-world/11311228
Kamala Harris ignores economics when it comes to Medicare for All. Peter Thiel accuses Google of treason because of their work with artificial intelligence and the Chinese military. Google refused to work with the U.S. military. That raises the obvious question of what is Google up to? And, Michael has a Taxpayer Relief Shot that epitomizes why the natural law of self-defense is so important. It may be the best example to-date.
Michael dives deep into Donald Trump’s tweets that everyone claims is racist. He wants to know if you think they are and why or why not. Nancy Pelosi gets in trouble on the House floor. The leader in the house drops the gavel and walks away from the podium. Democrats are in disarray and it’s freaking hilarious. Bernie Sanders wants to double the federal budget. Kamala Harris hates lawyers doing their job, but wants to take money from the very lawyers she says are dirtbags. Hypocrite?
Michael describes dragging Main Street. Trump comes out with new asylum rules. Wait for the court challenge. 007 goes woke. What is proper restroom etiquette? Please don’t do these things. Volvo might leave Sweden because of violence. Tucker Carlson and immigration. Paying money to the homeless to leave. Congressman Mo Brooks asks the right climate change questions. Why doesn’t the media cover the scientists’ answers? Biden repeats an old Obama phrase. If you like your doctor…well you know the phrase.
AOC & her squad of progressives may cost the Democrats control of the US House. Former ICE Director Holman responds angrily to a stupid question by a stupid congressman. The Green New Deal is revealed to be about control of the economy. Andrew Klavan on humorless humor. John Hickenlooper doesn’t recognize a crime, mistakes it for free speech. There is a gold fish invasion.
Is corruption destroying the United States? PG&E, Puerto Rico, Denver, all facing corruption in public works projects. Europe limits free speech and they’re doing it through social media giants. It’s coming to America. Joy Behar doesn’t understand the history of the Nazis forcing Jews into the ghettos. Joe Biden thinks there’s a Muslim ban. Wake up, Joe. It’s a kiddie pool! Are dogs man’s best friend? Maybe not in this case. CO2 isn’t causing climate change. Facebook meddles in the Irish abortion referendum. They’re worse than Russians when it comes to election meddling. And, Uncle Bernie is grumpy.
I’ve had it with women’s soccer. Listen to Rapinoe talk about MAGA hats and lecture Trump on excluding people. The pay gap in soccer is not what you think it is. It’s economics. Mexican immigration policy is starting to have a political effect in Mexico. Pelosi takes on AOC. Grab the popcorn. HHS now spends billions, and that’s without Medicare For All. Kimmell mocks Trump on the Twitter court ruling, but AOC better watch out. A guy falls in a vat of chocolate and an Uber driver shoots a passenger. It’s crazy out there!
AOC quotes Marxist Eva Peron. People are going to descent on Area 51? Idiots! Mitch McConnell and slavery. Trump’s Twitter account gets in trouble with the courts. Is washing clothes just virtue-signaling? Drinking straw causes death. Ban them! Cookie dough proves why America is great. Losing a friendship over a MAGA hat is just stupid. And, Prager University and FEE explains why Jesus was not a socialist.
CNN is convinced Trump is starting a civil war. Apparently, air conditioning is sexist. The Confederate Underground gets disinvited from a state fair lineup. Nancy Pelosi says the census question is about counting white people. Fatphobia is a thing now. And who owns the lost Apollo 11 moon tapes?
Why is everything described with hyperbole now? Giant wasp nests? And earthquakes the likes of which you’ve never experienced before - because you just moved to California? Jim Beam Whiskey gets destroyed. Sad! The ice cream licker probably won’t be prosecuted. And, a woman eats cake in a Walmart. Let’s go to Walmart? MAGA hat wearer gets screamed at and Ben Smith has the best retort. We could all learn from Ben Smith for once.
Campus Reform has a video of students who say they don’t think the United States is the greatest country in the world. There’s one exception and Michael really likes him. Kamala Harris calls President Trump a “predator.” Michael Eric Dyson says the Betsy Ross Flag is the equivalent of a swastika. And, Christian Toto joins Michael for another edition of Hollywood in Toto.
Michael gets into a battle on Twitter over the CBP Private Facebook group exposed by Pro Publica. Why is that people only accept speech they like, when in fact unpleasant speech is protected, too.
Oreos is virtue signaling and it’s sad. Why does Megan Rapinoe of U.S. Women’s Soccer insist on dissing the “American” team she represents? Fareed Zakaria slips into the truth about asylum seekers. Jeh Johnson tells the truth about unaccompanied minors in cages. And, a couple of classic taxpayer relief shots.

Antifa riots in Portland are going to get people killed. Where were the cops? Michael explains the Census question Supreme Court decision. Sun tattoos are a thing. And Robert Francis O’Rourke claims God doesn’t control nature.
Michael watched 5 minutes of the debate and couldn’t take it anymore, so he and his grandson watched Blazing Saddles! And, Christian Toto joins Michael for Hollywood in Toto.
Michael provides a constitutional law primer on jury selection and Justice Thomas’ dissenting opinion excoriating Justice Kavanaugh and the left’s racial, identity politics. Michael wants your suggestions on solving the border crisis. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez uses other peoples’ money for everything. Google is violating election laws and engaging in election collusion. Flatulence. Yes, flatulence.
Michael discusses at length the problem of the border crisis and how no one is offering a realistic solution. He describes in detail the logistical and legal nightmare of housing and feeding migrants. Mexico has sent troops to its southern and northern borders. But so what? The real question is, what are they doing? That story about kids developing horns from smartphones? Fake news. Michael explains why. And, a classic taxpayer relief shot.
Michael talks about an Egyptian Iman who issued a fatwa on wife beating. Eater (the website) proposes throwing food at people but doesn’t recognize that as an assault and battery. Nancy Pelosi tells a group she opposed interior enforcement of immigration laws. What happened to the rule of law? Maxine Waters is back, and she’s supporting Iran. New York City transit offers a lesson in broken windows theory. There is a “gay rock” that has homeless people upset in San Francisco. Know what “TERF” means? Neither did Michael.

AOC finally gets chewed out by Chuck Todd of Meet the Press. Nancy Pelosi swerves in her criticism of AOC. Doxing finally lands a Senate staffer in jail. That’s good news. A drag queen makes the case for “grooming” young people. It’s scary. New York starts giving out drivers licenses to illegal aliens, but like sanctuary cities for firearms, some county clerks are refusing to follow the New York Law. Christian Toto shows up with a clip from The View that will make your head explode from the stupidity.
Michael has a solution to President Trump’s tweet promising to deport millions of illegal aliens. The Democrats won’t stop talking about the Holocaust, digging their hole deeper by the day. It’s now beyond parody and offensive to Holocaust survivors and World War II vets, among others. Title IX and sex discrimination in sports are being tested in Connecticut by girls tired of getting beat by transgendered men. Reparations are in the news, but Michael bets you didn’t hear this part of the hearing. An attack squirrel full of meth. Teen Vogue advocates prostitution. A taxpayer relief shot. And, a prediction about a government shutdown.
Joe Biden says he wants a revolution. AOC says we have concentration camps. The left has gone utterly nuts. OJ tweets out threats already. Told you he would. Ilham Omar is silent on terror recruits in her congressional district. Campus Reform has some good news about students. A Broadway play about the Clintons closes down early. Who saw that coming? The Clintons are back in the news over emails. The gift that never stops. Kyle Kushov’s apology is about more than his ugly, racist text messages. Can anyone ever be redeemed? Governor Grisham of New Mexico exacerbates the border crisis then sues the Trump Administration over….the border crisis. China is harvesting organs from political dissidents - kept in actual concentration camps. And a taxpayer relief shot.
Michael goes through the history of Democrats and tax increases. Nancy Pelosi is against impeachment, but it might not be for the reason you think. And the mob gets another scalp for something said. Be careful what you say. The mob may come for you.

There is a true humanitarian crisis at the border and we’re damned if we do and damned if we don’t. Michael comes across a phrase about “chocolate starfish” he’s never heard before and is grossed out by it. Why does the Pope want a carbon tax? Plastic straws on Father’s Day.
Michael and Christian laugh about The View and Biden’s plan to cure cancer. And Michael wants you to think about this….if Google, YouTube, Facebook & Twitter are private companies and can de-platform personalities because they are “private” companies, why can’t a bake shop or a sweatshirt shop also discriminate? Think about that for a minute.
You've likely heard bits and pieces of Michael's story if you've been a long time listener, but today Michael's Executive Producer, Steve Reiter, unpacks the stories that make Michael who he is. Chances are you'll learn something new about Michael that you've never heard before.
Michael heard Susan Eisenhower talk about courage on D-Day 2019, and it caused him to really think about what courage means in American society. H.R. 1, the Democrats first bill, is anything but courageous - it is a threat to free speech. Kamala Harris promises to prosecute Donald Trump. Isn’t that a form of projection? Marcia Fudge calls Trump supporters stupid and dumb. A congresswoman from California says her Republican colleagues are sex-starved men. But polls show otherwise! The CDC comes out against cookie dough. Michael is going to binge on cookie dough.
