08-13-26 Part One - El Sayed's One Percent Win

Now, it's Red Eye Radio, Gary McNamara, and Eric Hurley talk about everything from

politics to social issues and news of the day, whether you're up late or you're just starting your day, welcome to the show from the Relief Factor Studios. This is Red Eye Radio. All across America, we are Red Eye Radio. He is Eric Hurley, and I'm Gary McNamara.

Good morning. >> Hi. >> Good to have you here. I don't like, I told you, I don't like doing a show alone.

“>> Yeah, I know, that's why I took a day off, because you don't like it.”

And, you know, I thought to myself, our company is very generous. They give us 52 sick days a year. [LAUGH]

>> That's my interpretation of what I read.

>> Is that what it is, okay, I didn't know that. >> And, yeah, and it's weird, sometimes I even call in while I'm on vacation. But there's nobody to call. And so, I thought I'd just take a day off and go up to DC and see if I could fix everything in one day, and it did not happen.

I made it worse, especially in the personal life of AOC. We'll just, you know, I'm just going to say it may or may not have been my fault. >> Well, it was interesting that the day after I had mentioned, it's like, is there anything positive about AOC and I went, well, her teeth look nice. >> She has very nice teeth.

>> And then the next day, she's, we find out, I mean TMZ right on top of it, two years ago, and she broke up with her fiance, breaking news two years ago. >> No, way to be on top of it, Harvey. >> I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, what do I, what's the, you're probably, you're too busy being, for Harvey over at TMZ, you're too busy being an activist to do

your job. >> Oh, yeah. >> You don't know that one of the loudest lawmakers broke up two years ago. >> Yes. >> Where have you been?

“Remember the whole thing with the, what was the Met Gala thing in the dress in all of that”

a couple of years ago? They were right on top of that. >> She got hit by the ethics committee for that. >> Yeah, yes she did. And then they, you know, and then the paparazzi seemed to follow her around, I'm assuming a lot

of the paparazzi is left, I might be wrong about that. You know, they were treating her like the rock star. She was the rock star at the moment, now move over because Mom Donnie is for the moment. And that may not last long. >> Oh, we thought maybe she was going to be replaced by Hong, but that didn't happen.

>> Boy, you missed that last night. >> Yeah, right. I mean, that was just crazy when I woke up to come in for yesterday's show and saw the race was close. >> Yeah.

>> And, you know, and we, we had a great discussion. I had a great discussion. We, you weren't here. >> You and yourself and you. >> I mean, I was debating with myself, no, but I was just looking at polls in general.

“And I just went, you know, with the, I'll say it in Michigan last week that I think was”

a miss by what 15 or 16 points, even though he won.

If you look at the last five polls, they looked at the polls and first I looked at the

polls all through July and it was like between 18 and 22 points. You take the last five polls, it was like 24, 25 points. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> That, that, that she was in the lead.

>> Right. >> And she lost and I just went, there's a major problem here, but think about it. If there's a major problem, you and I said this a long time ago, we said, look, we would do believe that there is political activism going on in some of the polling, especially the Democrat polling.

>> I have note. You just cannot be off as much as they are. And what I use as an example was Trafalgar, Trafalgar, I don't know what it ended up being, but, but Trafalgar for, for South Carolina. >> Yeah.

>> Looking at Lindsey Graham's sister and that particular race, they had her, the last two polls they did were six and 10. >> Yeah. >> And if you average that out, which you could, it would be eight. She, with 95% of the vote in last night, she was up 8.1%, yeah.

And what's the guy's name, Robert, I can't think of the guy, I just, I should have looked it up, because I talked about it yesterday and couldn't remember it, but everybody understands the point, you know, Trafalgar has gotten a reputation for doing state races.

>> Robert Cahaley? >> Yeah. Robert Cahaley. Yeah. And I, did anybody interview him, there are two things yesterday.

I expected to see him all over the place, and I know we're jumping topic to topic, and I can't believe the administration wasn't out there, even though it's just one month, going crazy about the inflation numbers that came out.

“>> They come to Trafalgar, Robert, why have I never heard that?”

>> Yeah.

>> I never heard that, ever.

>> Yeah. >> Now, but the other thing that surprised yesterday is that the administration wasn't going crazy, you know, in a good way about the inflation numbers, and in a way, it, it, number financial publications were talking about it, said, "Well, and sort of justify the new fed chair who did not, you know, who did not lower rates," you know, you had, and I understand,

look, I understand that a lot of it had to do with the, the, the, the crash in a gasoline, gasoline, now up to 385, by the way, and so it's like, but you had two months were in inflation seem to not be out of control, in fact, you had, was it disinflation, disinflation, deinflation, deinflation, but it's a disinflation or deinflation. >> I'm inflation.

>> I'm inflation. >> I'm inflation, I mean, it was actually, some, you know, some good news, whether it's going to last now with gasoline prices up when you look at in August, like I said, 385's the most I paid in a while, right now, and, and that was, but it was 380 with my 5 cents off because I used the one gas station all the time, and so they, I haven't figured it out,

it's like, sometimes I get 3 cents off, sometimes 5, then once like every month, 40 cents off a gallon, I haven't figured out their algorithm of how they do it yet or what the system is, but, but, yeah, so, but getting back to the polling, when you look at, for founder Robert, for founder Bob, by the way, it was AI's summary that said that.

I have never heard that AI's summary, neither of I, I have any other, but you, you look

at it and say they're playing political activism within their own party, yeah, because a PPP poll is a Democrat pollster, right, how can you be off so far, I would have loved to hear to haily out there saying, here's what they did wrong, here's where they sampled wrong, but here's the point, when you sample a Republican, this is the question that I have, because I have more questions than anything, if you sample a Republican, you ask

them, are you a Republican, right, right, you ask them, are you a Democrat, and it's like, um, or Republican, or do you lean Republican, for example, if you got me, I absolutely, I may not officially be a Republican, but I lean Republican 100%, yeah, I mean, I have

“invited for a Democrat, I don't remember, I think the last time I voted for a Democrat”

was for the, for the town that I lived in in New York 30 years ago, and it was for the sanitation commissioner, and it was because it was, he was more conservative in that local race in the suburbs than the, the actual Republican, and the Republican had scandal all over, you know, all over, uh, him at that point, otherwise I don't remember the last time I voted

on the national level, yeah, I've never voted, I couldn't tell you, I don't think it's, uh,

it's ever happened, so I would be a lean Republican. I'm, I, I always call myself a 100% a conservative independent, but I'm not, you know, I'm not saying independent because I don't want to belong, we don't, we don't register in this state, but it's not what we label ourselves, it's, it's how they would label us by asking a few questions. Do you vote, yeah, I've always voted a Republican, I vote Republican, 100% right, so you, so you have that, it's, you know,

and so it's pretty clear so you can look and say, well, you sampled, uh, you know, in, in your role, uh, a poll here that showed that the, uh, that, the Democrat is up, 90 to 10, uh, you sampled 99% of Democrats in the poll, okay, that's adjoining, right, just to make the, the, the, the point, how do you do it to make sure you have the right balance in a primary? Basically, it's just who you're going to vote for, right, but you think it comes down to that

“especially in housing, yeah, I think it, uh, I would love to know the method, okay?”

Basically, who you're going to vote for because you're, are you only calling, are you only calling Democrats? Are you, well, you have to be calling in the sample, you know, you don't, you don't know, you may be calling, you may be calling Republicans or vice versa, but Trafalgar gets it right, yeah, Trafalgar has Trafalgar, for example, or I even say Rasmussen, if you want to look at

no, no, no. And, and as I said yesterday, there's a lot of, you know, people sit there and,

and talk about, well, you know, the Republican Party is all unified. No, they're not. Yeah, no. On, on the issues, there's a lot of things that we went through the issues, where they're not, where Republicans aren't necessarily unified because you still have the voter, you still have a conservative base, and you have a populist moderate liberal base. They exist in the Republican Party. They're moving left. They've been moving left over the

last 20 years. We've talked about that, but still Trafalgar gets it right. Yeah, Rasmussen,

“they're, they're not off 22 points. Right. Ever. Right. So what the hell is going on?”

I would love to, and we've Scott Rasmussen's office, maybe not all of them, but somebody in his office listens at least on occasion, see if you can send an explainer on methodology to a spy email, go to the website and email us, and see how it differs in terms of methodology in general with the pollsters, how it differs in midterms. Or what do you think happened here? Yeah, well, because there is no explanation that is going to satisfy that. If you're off

by that much, you shouldn't be doing it. So there's only two things. You're not competent, your methodology is deeply, deeply flawed. I guess I, okay. I'll say three things.

“Your methodology is deeply flawed. Two, you're doing it because you're an activist,”

then you're setting off numbers to drive the polls in one way or the other. And three, people are liars to a great extent when responding to your poll. And leave those possibilities on the table. So only Democrats are doing the line in Republicans aren't in the polling? Yes. But if there's a concerted effort, if there is this effort to drive the polls, the Democrats with that one race, the other day where they had a pack that was pouring

two million into a race and they backed the Republican in the primary that was not Trump's endorsement. That was opposing the one with Trump's endorsement. Forgive me, I forget which race it was.

Now two million in a state or district is a lot of money. But you and I have always talked about,

well, it's the content of the message. And so, you know, I'm not sure how much that two million had to do with it or not. But the effort by the Democrats was to defeat the Trump endorsed candidate. So we know there is that manipulation. You know, you've got to motivate people, you and I have always, we've been saying for a while, run like your 20 points behind. Now I say 80 points behind. And you, if this would be the, this would be the, the, the intent.

Make people believe the stronger, more liberal candidate, whatever is, is not going to win. And you drive that other, you drive the, the votes for the other candidate. You know, you're better get out and vote. It's urgent that you do this. I, I've just gotten to wear the polls with few exceptions and triphalbers, one of them. Rasmus is another one. I don't, and, and those, I understand margin of error. There could be things, you know, Mark over at Rasmus and talked

about Texas in 24 and he goes, man, if not for Texas, our score on accuracy would have been almost perfect. And he was kind of joking, you know, tongue and cheek, you know, like darn you

“Texas. And it was, I think it was votes in certain counties surrounding San Antonio and Austin.”

But, but anyway, there is no doubt in my mind that some of these pollsters have a mission and that mission is activism. Now, you still look horrible when there's that much of

election. I just did the numbers. All right, the last five polls. All right, that would take it. Okay. And it was, uh, the average was 23 points she would win. Yeah.

Yeah. 23. Okay. It's basically still, let me just see here. It's, uh, yeah, it's still eight,

real clear politics is still at 8.1 for Graham and Norman. And so Trafalgar, if you take the average of his last two polls, the week, you know, because these other polls, we're looking at, you know, the sample right before the election. Right. Big, uh, and 8 points would have been the average that he had 8.1 is what she leads from right now with still 95% of the vote in. And that's in the, unless they stop for some reason. I don't know why it looks like the same numbers as yesterday.

I don't know whether they have other votes coming in yet or what, but, but it's going to be close. It's going to be within one point. Yeah. You know, and, and, and so legitimately, you can say, legitimately, you can ask the question, is it, is it pulling fraud? Right. Right. And who's buying these polls that are so inaccurate? Right. Why would you continue doing that? We are right.

If there were any out of service violations, the officer will normally explain what must be done to get the out of service order lifted. Drivers need to be very attentive during this part of the inspection. The driver also needs to read and understand the complete inspection report.

The driver has 24 hours to get the roadside inspection report to the motor carrier.

“I think I know what you're going to say because I said right before we went out about the”

Democrat posters or the main stream or Democrat posters, for example, in the Hong race. That we're off so much. Who would buy this? You said the answer. Other activists. Exactly.

They're everywhere. It really is like fight club. We're all Tyler Durd. That's basically their game.

Yeah. So you can take the music down. Thanks. Yeah, we're just early on that. Oh. I looked up at this second on the clock. I heard the music and heard the music and looked up and I go, I think we have, I think we have another minute. That was just a, that was just a, that was just a dry run. Can I do it? Can I do it? Can I do it? Can I do it? No, no, can I do it a talent would do? What's that? Run, get your act together. There you go.

That's not national radio, national radio. So let's get it together. We can be like the stories at Howard Stern with his, with his, with his crew. We've got dozens of listeners fire that man. We've got tens and tens of listeners. Yes. So your point was other activists would vote. Yeah. Other activists would vote. Right. Because they know how that, how it's going to work out. Right.

Yes, always remember respect the talent. Yeah, it's right. And don't just drag it.

We are running our video and he's our crony and I'm hearing McNamara interesting headlines and the inflation numbers out yesterday. All those details coming up in just a minute. Everybody's talking about weight loss injections because the results are so dramatic. You know, they work by lowering blood sugar and reducing appetite. So if you're looking to lose weight, but what if you're not interested in painful weekly injections, side effects and all of

“that? That's why doctors created a weight loss supplement. It's called lean and the results are”

remarkable. The studied ingredients in lean have been shown to lower your blood sugar, burn fat by converting that into energy and curb your appetite and your cravings. But lean is not for the casual dieter with only a few pounds to lose. The doctors at Brickhouse nutrition created lean for frustrated dieters with ten or more pounds to lose that that's you. Let's get you started. We want to see you be successful in this effort and we got 20% off and free rush

“Babylon be headlines. What do you got? It's a parody news site by the way, folks. Yeah, but hilarious.”

This may be one of my favorite ones of all time. Based on what we found out last week from Francesca Hong, who lost? Yeah, as we were talking about the polling here. It's their lead headline. Devastating Francesca Hong forced to return home and spend time with her white son. And that comes in case you don't know the story that comes from her on a podcast and we played it last week talking

about the fact that her whole goal. I mean, the reason she basically got married was because

she wanted to assimilate into the white race. Yeah. And then having done that, having, you know, her son, who is mixed, then she questions all of that. And the point that we were making is who in the hell ever spends one minute of time saying to themselves, in order for me to be success in my personal and romantic life. I need to assimilate into a particular skin color because as we said, it's not, it's not a culture. Right. You know, there is the culture. I mean, it's not an

issue oriented thing. There is not uniform thinking of all white people that creates a particular one culture. And she didn't say, I want this particular culture and these particular values that may come from some demographic of the white race. She simply said, I wish to assimilate.

Basically, she was saying, I wish to assimilate. And I don't know. Pretend I have white skin.

And here's the question. After saying that, I would ask her, are you embarrassed of your white son? I mixed race. But are you embarrassed? Now? Yeah. I mean, how do you feel every day about it? But who's not not about your actions? But the fact that, you know, you, I don't know, are now in parts. How did she phrase it? She's forget how she phrased it. Like she's part of the white culture, but she phrased it differently. And I thought, that's weird. Because no, she didn't say culture.

Right. Well, and into the white race. White race. Yeah. Exactly. So into whiteness. Right.

“Yeah, whiteness. But that old is that meaning. Well. And so here's the thing.”

You and I both have family members. We have a family that that, if you want to go down this, if it mattered to you. And I'm sure if with our audience, it doesn't.

Those across the spectrum. Yeah. White, black, Latino. It's, you know, it's, so you basically did.

But I don't. And look, I don't look at any of my family members who are wonderful. I think

who are racist. You know, you made a great point. Yeah. You know, at times when you, I can imagine, I remember when I first became a talk show host. And someone told me,

here's the advice I'm going to give you. Never talk about race. It's like, what are you?

Not, of course, I'm going to talk about race. Yeah. Because I don't, I don't, I don't view it. Only if you're a, a bigot. But I understand what you did right there. Because you're like, we're not speaking, we're speaking about how the opposition thinks. Right. Not how we think, but we're even uncomfortable talking about what the opposition thinks. Because at times, it's in so incredibly bigoted and racist. We don't want to even give anybody the idea,

ever that we ever endorse it, who may just turn in for that 10 seconds here. That one part of what you said and take it completely wrong. Right. And, and, you know, it's for me, it's so ridiculous,

“because here's the thing. And I told a friend of this friend of mine this years ago,”

from me to think that I'm genetically superior to anybody. I'm sorry. Do you know me? Do you do you know me? I don't think I'm superior. I don't think I'm superior for any reason. And, and, and that's

the, you know, that's, but the left, of course, no, no, no, they need to brand. The problem is,

you know, and, and they've said this repeatedly is white males. The problem of the world is white males. I was in a conversation with a small group of people one time that was about two years ago. And one of them said that, and it was a white male that said it. And I said, then you need to get out. And it was these youngies, early 20s, and then you're the problem. And you can't do anything

“about it. So you need to lead this conversation. You need to lead the conversation. Go hide somewhere,”

spend your life hiding, spend your life or do a Rachel Dollazard, and say that to them.

But because he probably wouldn't have known who she is, you know, and, and she wore black

face in the left, defended her. Right. And you know, it won't be goberg. Well, I don't know. I mean, if, if somebody does that, and, and believes they are black, and, and we just, we went bonkers over that because that did play into exactly what Obama said before he left office. With the interview, I think it was with the Atlantic in December of 20, it would have been 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 16. We're just, we're he said,

you know, where he was asked a question about about the fact of why do you call yourself black when you're black and white. Yeah, you're mixed race mixed race. And, and he said, because I've come to understand that race is a social construct. And we just went, wow. And nobody on the left really reported that, except the newspaper article that reported it, but nobody could, they just left that thing alone completely. But the whole Rachel Dollazard thing fell right

into that. Well, we accept, we accept her because, you know, we accept her because she is abandoning her whiteness and wishes that she was black. And therefore, it's a good thing, ex, that came from Wippie Goldberg, unless she was attempting to defend her former boyfriend. Yeah, right. Yeah.

“Sam on cheers. It was in black faces. I remember that that. Right. And he was dead because he thought”

it was funny. Right. And so it's like, okay. And so that's why we just got such a kick out of it. You know, it's, it's just, again, who thinks that way? I don't know. I'll tell you, pretty insecure people. Very insecure that have to, it's a different kind of, I don't know, expression in, in trying to, in, in a, a weird attempt at virtue signaling, I'll say radical virtue signaling, because it would be radical virtues that you're talking about.

Radical virtue signaling, I need to be, and, you know, I think I said, said this in in 24, leading up to 24. The primary for the Democrats was going to be filled with state, with a stage

and to also have the greatest amounts of hatred for Donald Trump. You know, they have to, they have to prove, they have to work really hard to prove that they live up to the virtues of the radicals. Now, they are radicals, but they, they really have to keep their street cred going by saying stupid things like that, regretting your marriage. You didn't marry for love. You didn't get into this whole thing for the right reason. Yeah. You did it for you.

“Maybe that's why I didn't work out in the end. Yeah. Maybe in, in, in, politically.”

That maybe it was, and, and, and years of thing, people that say such stupid things do win elections. Yes. And she might, at some point in the future. And, yeah, but she's going to have to have a 70 point lead in the polls if she expects to win. With certain pollsters, yes, maybe 80. And, you know, but, but again, people that do say stupid things like that do get elected, and one of them is Gavin Newsom. You know, Gavin Newsom is one of

those. And, you know, he's, he's always trying to walk that fence because he's, you know,

trying to get on the big stage at some point clearly. But he's been re-elected a number of times,

“even the, he defeated the recall, remember? And so, look, plenty of them are that radical,”

and, and do that weird radical virtue signaling to try and buy that street cred. You can't, look, you can't moderate it all. You can't do things like mondoning is done a couple of times here, you know, when he's, when he's, you know, well, there's times I have to be the mayor, and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I mean, he hasn't said that, but that's, that's the idea. You know, once you get elected, we said this after the 2008 election.

Obama won, and we said, look, for all of those that voted for him and expect him to be, you know, the radical, the left Democrat, keep in mind, he's going to have to do things you don't like,

and at some point, you know, and then by the end of his second term, the Democrats were like,

yeah, he didn't do anything for us. And now you're at that point, and, and it's again, that what we used to call the liberal circular firing squad, which is, you know, become something else that's even much worse, you can't do anything. You can't moderate at all at any point, especially after you win and take office, and Mondonius has found that out at least, well, in a couple of cases. And unless you say, I don't believe in defunding the police anymore,

but you're just saying that in order to get elected and everybody knows your movie, you're attempting to move the center as you're seeing from some of the Democrats' socialists, the other headline that I loved from the Babylon B, AOC struggling to meet single men, under the age of 90 at work. We are Rudd, I radio. We'll be right back with more Rudd, I radio, with a recording and Gary McNamara.

We are Rudd, I radio, he is her curly, and I'm Gary McNamara, but yeah, that's the one thing I'm going to be looking for the next couple of weeks is the, the, for the good polsters out there, the, the, and I say good, not because they are, their viewed as Republican, but they're just

“more accurate. Uh huh. Dr. Falgar and Rasmussen has proven they're more accurate, right?”

Right. They've never been off like this. Yeah. I want to know why this is happening.

No, I'm, I'm with you on that because what is the reason? If it is deliberate, if it is, building a methodology to get a certain result in order to get a certain result out of respondents, or get, or I guess, put a certain effect into play, you know, motivate people to vote for the one candidate that they think, well, you know, I, then, or, you know, it could be not that it's

that candidate. Sometimes it's saying, nope, that candidate's over. Don't bother voting, right? It's, you know, they're too far behind, and your vote really won't change anything or whatever. But if there's any manipulation of their methodology to that effect, that, that right there to me is fraud. And if it's not that, then your methodology is flawed and it's not improving

“in many cases, with, with a number of these posters. Why?”

Ingrid and Indeed present here, Jobs, by the time you're not in a lot of trouble, today, I'm in a bit of trouble, and I'm sorry. What's this? It's a lot of fun, right? No, I'm sorry.

Hi. So yesterday the first day of school in our area. So I had a dentist appointment that

they gave me the option 9 a.m. I could go or 12. So of course I chose 9 a.m. Mistake. Why? It takes me normally. I'm not kidding. One minute to get out of my subdivision. Took me 15. I live, I live a block from where my school is. My street was loaded with cars. There was a mini traffic jam on my street. Why? Oh, I'll get kicked a little whipper snappers out the front door. Let them walk to school. And I'm sorry. How far is the school from your house?

About a block and a half. Okay. Same thing here. So for years, I've lived in this house 20, almost 22 years. And I'm four houses down from the elementary. Now, three of my kids went there and one of my grandchildren, my youngest grandchild is going there now. It's a great elementary. We know some of the teachers that have been there this whole time. I mean, it's really great.

But the first, probably the first couple of weeks. It ends after a while. But they're

“parking on my street and then walking down to, you know, the, yeah, that's what was the elementary.”

Yeah. And it's that nerve, I remember the nervousness of the first day of school. One of the reasons I took this job in '96 is because it would allow me to be home, help get kids ready in the morning, get them off to school. Be there all day at the school called at the house ready to go up to the school if I needed to. And be there when they got home. And so, I, I understand, it's a very nervous tension. And you're going to all of this and then

everybody, almost everybody takes their child to school the first day. And Derek Strupe has

there are the minivan kids. Now, if you were a minivan kid, you got out of a minivan full of love every morning and walked into school. He goes, if you were a bus kid, it was tension all morning. Lord helped me. If you missed that bus, I'm going to Bob, Bob, Bob, I'm the whole thing. And he said, you know, and, and I thought to myself, that was actually true because when I was a kid, you know, writing a bus, we had to write from the Air Force Base in Del Rio. I don't know,

“I had 12 miles, I think, total to the elementary that didn't have any schools on days.”

And, but the kids that are going to write the bus are eventually walk to school if they live

close enough. Do that. But the parents go with them the first, you know, few days, maybe a couple

weeks. And my entire block and we just got used to it. My wife and I just like, all right, well, I couldn't get out of the subdivision because even when I took, I went around and I'm going to go the other way. I kept hitting school buses that were basically parked with their red lights on. Yeah, couldn't go around. And when I got up, there were like five cars behind it. And I went up to one. I sat there waited five minutes and finally made a U-turn and went around the other way.

And when I went out of another street, there's another bus just sitting there with, there's no kids around with their red lights on and another three, four cars behind it took a U-turn. I mean, it was just like, what's good now? I will say this. I was up earlier than I normally am

“to go to the dentist, you know, so that's why I've never encountered it before because I had”

always slept later. But I mean, it was just a traffic jam. And for a second, I couldn't figure,

I come from, again, New York, Western New York and in Western New York, school begins after Labor Day. So for me, I've never, I don't have kids, so I've never got used to the fact that school starts, a million yesterday, August 12th in Texas. Yeah. I mean, they don't start for, they won't start till probably the seventh of September in New York. It's always after Labor Day. August 11th was yesterday, right? Today's the 12th? No, it's today's the 13th. Okay. All right.

Yeah. Yeah. It's the 13th. Okay. And, and so I can't get used to it. I'm just like, that at a time to go, okay, I can't get here. Can't get through here. Can't get through here. Can't get through here. All right. I'm going to go all the way around. I know how to get through here. And so go away. There's a bus sitting there. I can't get around it. You know, and that's the one thing. When the, when the school bus has the red lights flashing, you don't want to get caught by a

cop going around it. Actually, there doesn't need to be a cop around. They, the buses themselves

“have cameras. I don't know. I think they take a picture. Wow. Yep. When the, when the stop sign,”

there's also a stop sign that that comes out, projects from the side and the lights are flashing. Yep. It's, the camera is working. And you will not get away with it. Yeah. I don't know if they were testing it, but there were no kids like there weren't kids waiting to get on the school bus or anything. It was just sitting there and on two different streets. And I'm like, okay, what's going on here?

But it's okay. I got, I got through that first world problem. Yeah. Right. All right. Inflation.

I was amazed. I thought the administration, that's all they'd be talking about yesterday. The consumer price index showed a seasonably adjusted increase of 0.1% during July. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, excluding food and energy. The so-called core CPI rose 0.2% on an annual basis. The inflation rate 3.4% and 2.5% for core inflation, bulk down 0.1% of points from June, all the readings were in line with what four casters were thinking. Though the levels are well above

the feds 2% target. This is analysis from CNBC. The tame monthly readings coupled with similarly moderate levels in June indicate a energy fuel burst earlier in the year is easing though prices remain volatile and subject to consistently changing conditions in the Middle East. And like I said, gas prices back up again to some of their highest levels I've seen. Which was just coming into work. But I hear there's a framework for a memorandum of

understanding that I in the works. And you know, the president was saying, no, no, no, it's Thursday. It's off now. President was off. They're talking about the wall of steel and everything else.

go through. Yeah. And two days ago was eight. So, you know, that's the real. We can stop or we can

stop a ran from using it. Right. But we do not control the straight-up or moves where you have 130 ships moving through as was before the war. Yeah. Yeah. And, you know, and that's that is the

“that is still going to be a challenge for the president. I think it was Hugh Hewitt who said,”

the October will the October surprise be that we take out a ran completely. Is the president waiting for that? I went to hell. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know if the exact I don't be a smart October moves or politically, let me, let me, let me rephrase. Politically,

I don't know if that would move the GOP in a positive direction. I don't know that.

It depends on what level. If, if you say, if they, if we came back, if they came out to the podium, and this is a possibility and said, the regime is out and the U.S. now has possession of all their enriched uranium. There would be a positive effect. I just don't know if it reaches the voters, the independence. I, I assume it would. I would feel great about it because like that, that would be mission accomplished. That would be mission accomplished. The other side of that,

on the other side of that, is now you have, I won't call it chaos. But now you have a ran, in play in terms of, all right, U leads, who's going to be in charge in the interim? What does it mean for the people of Iran all that, you know, so, and then what effect does that have politically on the other side of it? But if, if they're planning that as an October surprise, here's, I guess here's the, the where we are right now. If, if you do it and it is, again, regime's gone,

we have the uranium. I don't know, I don't know if it could hurt, except for the fact, because we would be in full control at that point of the straight of our moves. There's no doubt. And that would, that would settle energy, energy would, I know, oil would drop dramatically. Maybe, I don't know if they're saving that for an October surprise. I don't know what's going on. We trend, you know, we, you and I have been very clear. We don't know what's going on. The only problem we've had is with

the messaging, the back and forth, the back and forth, just don't talk about it. Our goal is to keep

“them from getting nuclear weapons, and we're going to work to that end every day. I think what the”

president decided to do is probably his, is the only option politically that he believes he could take. You know, it was talked about the missile defense, and it's like, well, we can go in. There's, there's nothing to shoot at us. We know what I need. Yeah. Those missiles right now. We could still go in and do it. But for whatever reason, the president has changed tactics. We had said a while back, instead of trying to make a deal, just choke them off economically and hit them every time you have

to hit them. But don't talk about it every day. But the president can't help it. Right. Because if you

just say, we've got them under control, we are still being able to ship eight million barrels

of oil to the United States a day to help moderate prices doesn't help that crude oils up,

“10% over the last week. And like I said, I've seen it's some of the highest prices. I think the highest”

price I've seen is what I saw yesterday at the gas station. And so, whether that will go down after the driving season ends in a couple of weeks, you know, we will, you know, we will see, but the president, again, yesterday with the wall of steel and everything else. And it was like, well, yeah, there is a wall of steel. You're keeping a ran. You're choking a ran, but you haven't opened up the straight-of-horse moves. That, you know, you've only got eight ships

the day before. Somebody, I forgot who did the counting on it yesterday. We're normally 130 ships move through. That's a problem. And so, if you keep wanting to, because a ran every day is taunting

a ran is saying this, but we're choking them off. And we're getting the oil that we need.

And we believe that this is a proper way, which he has said in there. Yeah. But you don't have to,

“but you don't have to do with, I believe the president did yesterday was make a statement”

that isn't total and complete, where it's easy to criticize you and saying, you're making it sound like the straight-of-horse moves is open. It is not. And that has to be that has to be your goal. He didn't need to bring it up. All he had to say is, you know, we're choking them economically if it's brought up and then move on to a different topic. Move on to the inflation numbers. Right. Do whatever. Right. Well, and another thing to with,

with being very short and at times vague in your messaging, you're keeping the enemy guessing

our goal is to keep them from getting nuclear weapons. We're working to that end every single day. I'm not going to get into the details of what's going on. I won't tell you about our operation. I'm not, I'm just not going to do that. I'm not going to divulge it to the enemy, but I'm telling you right now, we're winning. Leave it at that and that's another effect. Is that your the enemy then at this, because if there's anybody that's completely unpredictable

in terms of any modern president, it's Donald J. Trump. And if you're the enemy, you don't know what the hell he'd do. So that's a good thing. You know, it's interesting because I don't believe that there has been an outcry from the administration over the story. And we dealt with it the other day about the fact that the president has, you know,

“has told AIDS. I think it was a Wall Street Journal had it that, you know, keeping them from having,”

going in and grabbing all the nuclear weapons might not be a priority. I didn't see them come on and attack the Wall Street Journal for that story. And they attack any story like that all the time. Well, interesting point, but still regime change absolutely has to be input. Yeah, I'm not talking about strategy. I'm talking about the communication of the, of the, the, the, the president, you know, which they would attack and say, that story isn't, that story isn't.

Right. I know. I know. Yeah. Yeah. regime change, they've never said that. No, they happen.

Even though we believe that was the goal. The nuclear, you know, they will not be a new, and so if you're going to reframe it and say, look, here's, we've decided this is going to be the strategy. Every time they go near that place where we believe

“the nuclear materials are, once they go to open up, we'll continue to bond that every time.”

I said that week or week and a half ago. Right. That should, that should be what they would say. And we're going to choke them economically. And if they attempt to rebuild, we got the satellites. We know it's going on and we'll take it out. We in Israel will take it out every single time. And so what you're simply saying is we're in the process of strangling them economically. Yeah. And we'll make sure they don't have nuclear weapons.

But you got to straighten out the straight. We are right. I radio this morning's USDA Farm Report is brought to you by house products tested, trusted, guaranteed since 1920. A well below normal. Atlantic at Pacific Hurricane season to date. Yet USDA meteorologist Brad Ripie says business could pick up this week in both ocean basins in the Atlantic. We are watching a likely formation. There is a tropical wave.

It came off the African coast a few days ago. And that system is hitting across into the central Atlantic basin. There's about a two and three chance, roughly 70% chance. It that will become a named tropical cyclone over the next week as it heads towards the Lesser Antilles. Yet the system, if it does not strengthen, could provide needed moisture and drought plague U.S. territory, such as Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands,

meanwhile in the Pacific Basin. A low pressure system appears to be forming over the central Pacific, so we will be watching that system. There's actually a very high likelihood, almost about a 90% chance of tropical development there. If that system forms, as expected, it should head in the general direction of Hawaii over the next several days. I'm Rod Bane reporting for the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Washington, DC.

This report brought to you by Senax fuels and loops. [Music]

I'm finally looking at the inflation report. Both the June and July

moderations came largely because of the easing of the energy index, which is down 7% from its main historical peak. Problem is crude oil has jumped another 10% over the past week,

“as I said, I paid the highest for gasoline that I think I paid so far since the war started.”

Just last night. They said that poses problems for the August CPI. A key ingredient in the inflation run has been sheltered. Some good news there, though, the shelter index, which comprises about one third of the CPI waiting has risen just 0.1% in the past two months,

providing hope as well, except much of the work in that regard has been done by the sharp decline

in the lodging. Okay, where is it? Okay, I have to get lodging industry. This is lodging industry. Yeah, I mean, I just didn't print that part for me. So there we are with inflation. But not necessarily bad news. No, no. The US soccer podcast. I'm your host Megan Klingerberg and after interviewing so many dudes during this mensworld club. I'm so happy to be back with my US-1/2 players. I know the US

men's national team has changed how I think about myself, how I think about being an American, how I think about being on a team. It's one year out from that world cup and we're going to talk about the brightest prospects in US soccer. Are you ready? We're doing the US soccer podcast presented by Henkel. Follow and listen on your favorite platform. And he's our party. I'm Gary McNamar. We have a Chris Mathews update.

Oh, man. First time in ages coming up in just one minute. You know, there are a lot of supplements

on the market. You want the supplement that works, of course, with whatever you needed to do.

“And also, you want to know you can trust it. That's why I like relief factor. And I've been”

taking it for a while. They sent me some to try and I'm telling you it's working. The before and after is remarkable. The four eggs and pains from aging and also running over the years and just wear and tear on the body. But that's no longer a daily factor. Thanks to relief factor for me. And Mark was in tears from his daily hand joint discomfort. And he writes this and he said after a week on relief factor, he was about 50% better. And now he notices barely any pain at all. He loves

the customer service. He's so happy. He's spreading the word to everyone. Mark, thanks for sharing your story with us. And here's how you get your relief factor. Let's get you started a three week quick start. Just 1776 called 800 four relief 800 the number four relief or go to relief factor dot com. So here we go. Chris Matthews. I saw the headline. If you got to wear the headline. It says the headline was Chris Matthews does not feel a tingle in his leg for the DSA. Did he actually say

no, he didn't say that. Oh, the headline said that. Oh, yes. I'm sorry. The headline said that. But no, he wouldn't have been better if he would have said that. I would have loved it. Yeah.

“Let's hear from Chris Matthews on morning Joe. Here's what I think. And I've been thinking”

about this for today's now. The DSA has done a favor to nine DSA democrats, to regular democrats, who are regular members of the party. They've listed what they believe in. Their chair made that clear. It's in Peggy, Newton's column this week. It's very clear. We're going to get rid of ice that just ice. We're going to get rid of the border. We're not going to have a border anymore. We're not going to effectively and control people coming in and out of the country. And so I think

and we're not going to get rid of prisons. You know, we're going to get rid of the penny gone. We're going to negotiate what happens when your hostages are your former diplomats like what happened with President Carter. People take your hostages, your diplomats, hostages. What do you do then? You need an army. You don't like to have an army, but you do need to have one. All these

DSA for telling us what you believe in. I don't believe in that stuff. And discriminants,

because you can't follow AOC. I like AOC generally. But she came out and said we're just a big tent party with a problem with a big tent defenses. Every democrat has to defend all this crap

“coming from the left. They've got to say, I believe in all this crazy stuff. And that makes”

me a democrat. You've got to say, no, no, I'm not a member of the DSA. And here's why. And making very clear. So it's going to require politicians to be good politicians and say, here's why I stand. Right. This is what I'm a regular democrat. I'm for labor unions. I'm for opportunity for everybody.

I'm for civil rights. I'm for all the things I believe in as a democrat. But I'm not with this

crowd. And I think that's going to be a line that has to be drawn by democrats, because I'm telling you the last six weeks of this election is going to be an attack on the outside and the DSA in the York and the M. Donnie. And it's all going to come out and blame every democrat for everything the DSA is doing. I don't believe in the DSA plan. I don't believe in their checklist to what they

“believe in. I'll say so. But running for office is going to require that. I think before now”

before the election. All right. Now where did the DSA to address Christmas, Christmas? Where did the DSA come up with any of their ideas from? What gave them the incentive? For example, Chris Matthews talks about the fact that we're getting it rid of ice, not just ice, the border to no more controlling who enters or leaves the country. Well, that came from mainstream democrats. They built this. They built the entire damn thing. Right. You can't say I'm not willing

to go that far. That was the intent from the beginning. Right. It wasn't that Biden could not control the border. It wasn't that variables outside of the control of the United States as why these illegal immigrants were coming into the country. And the president was just trying to do his best by putting Kamala Harris as the borders are. But it was just too tough for somebody like Kamala Harris and Joe Biden to handle. No, they created it. Yeah. Yeah. They created the border crisis.

They wanted people coming across the border. We said at the very beginning, we laughed when Joe Biden made Kamala Harris. The borders are, we just went, oh my God. Wait a minute here. You just really, really through her under the bus. Well, what are you going to do? I'm going to go to the route of illegal immigration. And I'm going to visit other countries where illegal immigrants come from. Yeah. Did that do anything? No. No. No. She's failing miserably. Yeah, because your boss

is trying to destroy you. Yep. I mean, there's no reason you do that. We create the problem. And then we attempt to solve, then we attempt to solve, we pretend to attempt to solve the problem that we created. And then just say we're really trying to get this done. And then when it gets closer to the election, you go, you go, oops. All right. Let's try to slow down this a little bit. And then they got a little tougher. Remember right before the election. Yeah. We've slowed it

down a little bit. But they created it. You know, Chris Matthew says the crazy ideas, 99.9% of the Democrats in Congress, all the mainstream Democrats have voted for men being able to expose their genitals to women in a locker room. They own this. This is the one to, you know, wow, we're, you know, what Matthew is saying, well, no, I'm not a Democratic socialist. I'm not with the DSA. This is what

I believe in. First of all, good luck with that because they'll come after you. But, but beyond that,

it's what we have been saying for the longest time for those saying, oh, the Democrats are just getting too crazy. You helped build this. Right. They're trying to make it as if the DSA came out of nowhere. They just came out of nowhere and invaded our party. How did we get here? You created it. You enabled the DSA. Yeah. You Chris Matthews, you not coming down every single day on the open

“border Democrats with our, the majority of Democrats. Remember, it was again, I think it was in the”

house. Was it everybody? But again, 99.9% of Democrats in Congress don't want voter ID. Right.

this. Well, that's not the DSA. No, no, that's normal Democrats. Defund the police came before

“the DSA ever existed. All these radical ideas came from the so-called, quote, moderates of the”

Democratic Party. And even though Chris Matthews does not feel a tingle in his leg for the DSA, he was having a ton of that tingling for Biden and Obama when they were setting up the, the insane narrative that the Democratic Party is now dealing with today. And now they want to blame the DSA. Well, they just came in. They've created all of this. No, you created it. Yeah. Obama created it, Biden created it. You created it because you didn't attack it back then. Right. No, and it,

and now when they come in and go, get rid of prisons, we can't get rid of prisons, get rid of the military. We can't get rid of the military, but the mainstream of the Democratic Party was saying

“get rid of police to fund the police. We need social workers in there. How did that work out?”

It's, you know, you know, it's, it is the Democratic Party. Think about this. It's the Democratic Party that made the case that all police departments are systemically racist and where these incidents were happening. The vast majority of the incidents that were happening that they were saying was the cause of it were Democrat cities led by Democrats with many of those cities, the management and the executive branch of those cities were African-American. Yep.

When you sit there and do that, when you come out and say, you know, it's systemically racist, think about it. You go back, you look, you look, you look, go back to their presidential candidates.

You go to Kamala Harris. When she, you know, when, when her first run, when she said,

I lost because of racism and sexism. Yep. Well, you're saying your own party is racist and sexist. Chris Matthews has endorsed the insanity of identity politics, which is the racism of the Democratic Party judging people by groups and not individuals. That has been his career in backing the identity politics of the Democratic Party. Yes. So, please spare us here on right-eye radio that Chris Matthews on MSNBC and some, whatever the hell they are now. MS now,

MS past tense, that MS at the current time, that that, okay, we are rising above this because

this is never what we've been about. This is the DSA. Where did they come from? We have no idea.

Shut up! You know, it's, that's the problem, you know, again, that we see even from people like Rama manual. Rama manual was chief of staff for Barack Obama. You said it recently, Barack Obama really kicked the door open on the liberal transgender movement. Yep. And did so through the administration at the time, joint eat it from the Department of Justice and Department of Education. And they even in that joint eat it stated, "This is our interpretation

of Title IX," that if a student walks into the office of that school and says, "I'm now a girl."

“You have to, and this is going to be my name. They don't have to have a legal name change”

they don't have to have their parents involved. They don't have to have a doctor involved. And if they're playing sports on the girls team, you can't make, when they travel, you can't make separate accommodations for them. That's how, I mean, in one day, blasted the doors open. So for Rama manual now, at that time, he was not, he was no longer chief of staff. He moved on to be the King of Chicago. But he was part of the building of all of this. Now, you could argue and I don't

know. I wasn't there. I wasn't in on the meeting. I don't know what's in his mind. He's never stated.

Maybe that's why he left Barack Obama. Maybe that's why he decided to go somewhere else. You know, a less radical job like mayor of Chicago. And I don't know. Maybe he had a difference with Barack Obama's direction. I can't tell you. But he was part of building it. At one point,

another example, Van Jones. Now, Van Jones may have had the way he talks now.

“May have had some kind of, I don't know, epiphany. Epiphany, event is light that changed his mind in”

direction. I can't tell you. I'd have to ask him or he would have to tell you. But again, they're all part of where the party is now because they helped to build this. They knew it was

had it here. And now they're complaining that it's here. Yeah. And they were the creators of the

anxiety. We are Red Eyed Radio. Coming up more with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley. It's Red Eyed Radio. We are Red Eyed Radio. He is Eric Harley and I'm Gary McNamara. I don't know how they came out that way. McNamara. But sounded like you joined Facebook's parent company. I'm McNamara. Why? I swear no cocktails tonight. Tonight. Well, not yet anyway. Yeah, we're going to pour some at the top of the yard. Oh, man, I'm telling you. But yeah, the whole just to wrap up the Christmas you sing because it's what's

happening right now. You've got some Democrats in the media trying to separate themselves. And we're not going to let that happen. No. They can't sit there and try to pretend that the DSA just automatically appeared. And there's been no radicalism in the Democratic Party. We're just about having unions

“for people and good jobs. You are not. I think it's this odd attempt basically because they know”

the problem with owning it and like we've said they should do. And now they're owning it. The DSA

is owning everything promoting it and acting like it's a good thing. Is that the others never wanted

to own it. They didn't want to say it out loud. And those are the ones trying to separate themselves from. This is Red Eye Radio. On Westwood One. Mike Dron hosted by former Navy CEO Mike Ridland.

“What is your take was it what you expected? How is the best thing ever? It was something I always”

wanted to do. If you've shown me a clear goal, I'm like, okay, I can do that. Master chief. He's like, you realize it's about 1% chance that you make it through 1%. That's all I need, Master Chief. My Patum went home early and I just went up to my chief and I was like, I'm not doing all. Turns out I'm scared. That's when we go to work. Yeah, I was like, okay, I could get you to this.
