00:00:00 Introduction to Today’s M and M Experience
Mike Gallagher. Every day, Mike visits with Mark Davis, morning host on 660 AM, The Answer in Dallas. Here’s today’s Eminem experience.
SPEAKER 04 :
I saw somebody post something last night that made a lot of sense. They said, I’m kind of glad that they weaponized the justice system in the courts, and they raided Melania’s underwear drawer, and they… came up with 34 bogus felony convictions because only a man who has been through hell and back the way trump has is motivated to do for the american people what he’s doing right now the guardrails as axios put it are gone yep they’re they’re saying look there there is no stopping this guy and i am i’m here for the i’m here for it i i all of it every bit of it put it into my injected into my veins you I mean, Mark, there’s a lot of revelatory moments. Let me share with you, and I was thinking a lot about this driving in today to talk to you. Remember how it was revealed as we watched the smart kids parade around college campuses in support of Hamas after October 7th, and we realized, oh, my Lord, they are actually anti-Semites. They’re actual Jew haters. Jew hating on display in our youngest generation. And it was revelatory. It was like, wow, this this our eyes were opened to the real, real ugliness of many of the progressive left.
SPEAKER 03 :
Didn’t want to believe I did not want to think that about people just for disagreeing with them on policy. But it was much worse. But you can’t escape it.
SPEAKER 04 :
It’s unavoidable. I mean, when you’re out waving Palestinian flags and saying, you know, from the river to the sea, not only do we have elected representatives who are filthy anti-Semites, but we have a lot of the so-called smart progressives. Now, here we go this week. We’ve got Chuck Schumer and AOC and Ilhan Omar shrieking to the heavens about freezing USAID. Yeah. Now, USAID, as we have, has been revealed to us, is like a child grabbing your credit card. Like your kid got your MasterCard or your Visa. $20 million for Sesame Street in Iraq. Yep. $50 million to boost tourism in Egypt. This is our money. This is our money. This is American taxpayers. $40 million to build schools in Jordan. Now, it’s being revealed. But look what also is being revealed. They hate… the accounting of this accountability they don’t want usaid to be held responsible or accountable they’re freaking out they’re flipping out and it’s revealing it’s revelatory you know how they kept saying that that trump was going to be the the the end of democracy It’s end of bureaucracy. And I’ve heard that phrase a lot. That’s what they fear. He’s taking on the deep state establishment in a way that we have never in our lifetime witnessed ever before. No one’s come close. It’s two and a half weeks. This guy’s two weeks into it. What’s six months going to look like?
SPEAKER 03 :
What are we going to be talking about it?
SPEAKER 04 :
Well, let me tell you what Chuck Schumer’s afraid we’re going to be talking about. He said something yesterday. I had to check with the team. I said, tell me that’s not, is that AI? Is that a parody? He said, if we let Trump upend USAID, he could be going after the IRS next. He actually said that. Like, that was a bad thing. He was like, oh, please don’t threat me with a good time. Are you kidding me? And then he said he could be going after the U.S. Postal Service next. In other words, Schumer thinks he’s scaring Americans by giving us what we want.
SPEAKER 03 :
Exactly, casting the light of accountability. And I’ve so enjoyed it. It’s kind of glib. It’s kind of a cliche, but it’s often true. When the right people are upset, when the right people’s hair is on fire, that’s how you know good things are happening. I’m looking at this Ben Rhodes, this man-child who had some foreign policy gig during Obama saying, this will result in stupidity. for countless people around the world. You know, maybe we won’t have drag shows in Indonesia. Maybe we won’t have trans musical comedies going on in Egypt. Maybe we won’t have other slush fund ridiculousness that American taxpayers have funded for too long. We’ve been looking at this stuff. It’s been happening for six decades since USAID was developed under Kennedy. And it’s over. That’s what the whole Doge thing is, government efficiency, taking a sharp eye and a sharp scalpel and sometimes a sledgehammer to things that we just shouldn’t be spending money on. And why wouldn’t Democrats be on board with that, Mark? Because, A, they love it. They love grandiose expansionist collectivist government. And they also love, you know who a huge USAID beneficiary was? Our friends in Ukraine. It was another part of the slush fund to prop up that regime. So…
SPEAKER 04 :
Want to know who another beneficiary was? Somalia. USAID has spent billions for Somalia, and Ilhan Omar is flipping out. Remember, she famously said when she was elected, I’m here to protect the interests of Somalia from within the U.S. system. Which, of course, violates her oath. That violates her constitutional oath, but who cares? Who keeps track at this point? I mean, look, USAID is a mess. For every dollar it spends, it’s been revealed by Doge that only 12 cents actually reaches those in need. Meanwhile, we’ve got people still living in tents in western North Carolina. We’ve got people, they don’t, Biden didn’t care about East Palestine, Ohio. That’s…
SPEAKER 01 :

SPEAKER 04 :
That’s a red county. He doesn’t care about Carolinas. Those are Trump voters. And look, it’s a whole new day. And it’s crazy. I am so astounded at how they’ve revealed themselves to us.
SPEAKER 03 :
And they’re revealing things that we didn’t even know. A lot of people didn’t know that USAID existed. That’s right. Not only do we now know that it exists, but we also know what Elon Musk called it, a criminal organization.
SPEAKER 04 :
A slush fund. It’s a big slush fund. Look what we’re learning. But now talk to me like I’m five years old. Explain to me like I’m five. Because I saw the video of the protesters yesterday that are all hysterical about the mass deportations.
SPEAKER 03 :
The one that blocked the 101 Highway in California?
SPEAKER 04 :
The 101 Highway in California. There have been some, I believe, in Dallas. I think there have been protests all over the country. Now explain this to me. I saw the protesters burning the flag of the country they don’t want to leave. Right, exactly. Our flag. Right. But they’re waving the flag of the country in which they don’t want to go back to.
SPEAKER 03 :
Can you explain that to me? I’m five. Guess you’re the smartest five-year-old in America. Because you have figured it out exactly right there. They’re burning the American flag while attempting to stay in America while loftily holding high the flag of Mexico, the country they don’t want to go back to. Does that make any sense at all? It does not. That and the Luca trade, things that make no sense.
SPEAKER 04 :
Right. I mean, they’re mystifying. Burn the Mexican flag and fly the American flag. We love America. We love America. It’s so much that we don’t want to be peeled from its shores. Yeah, but that ain’t the way they feel. No, no, they don’t. They hate America. They just want to siphon from us. I saw this headline today. I love the tariffs. And did you notice that Eric Erickson smacked back at you yesterday on X?
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, no! Okay, hold on. Let me tell the story because I don’t… So, Eric Erickson and a whole lot of other… Faux semi pseudo conservatives took a look at a hiccup in the stock market yesterday and went, there’s your tariffs. That’s what your tariffs. So I sometime early evening last night reposted Eric sneezing at the tariffs, sniffing at the tariffs. and said, wow, sometimes it’s smart to wait for a day and see how things play out. And did that garner some attention from our buddy?
SPEAKER 04 :
He wrote, he posted back at you. I didn’t even understand what his point was because when it said that Canada and Mexico bent the knee, and they did, they have agreed to focus. All Eric Erickson wrote to you was, as I said, or something. It was really weird. It’s like, no, you didn’t. No, it didn’t make, it didn’t make any sense at all. I mean, these guys are just like, or I’m paraphrasing, but it was like, yeah, like I said, and then he posted something about Canada and Mexico caving, which I don’t, it doesn’t make, it didn’t make any sense at all.
SPEAKER 03 :
You know, I have to empathize and give latitude to people who are just, who have painted themselves into such a weird corner.
SPEAKER 01 :
And, you know, speaking of who blinked.
SPEAKER 03 :
And they can’t get out of it. How do they get out of it? It’s not all Democrats, as you pointed out. The Wall Street Journal has an op-ed headline, Trump blinks on North American tariffs. He didn’t blink. He paused them because the other guys blinked.
SPEAKER 04 :
That’s what they did. I was curious to see how David Muir and the usual suspects would handle this. Because, of course, over on Fox and Newsmax, it’s like, look, big Trump victory. Well, ABC, Trump had to somewhat concede and he backed, he backtracked. Oh, yeah, yeah. It was all about, it was incredible. And the usual suspects are on. So I love this post. Rich Zioli wrote something that was so good. This is directed to you, Eric Erickson. Generations from now, we will tell our grandchildren tales of the great North American trade war, how close we came to losing it all. Guacamole, avocado toast, maple syrup, other maple-flavored things. But we endured. For 18 long hours, it appeared all hope was lost.
SPEAKER 03 :
Like a 10-part series, The Great American Trade War, Chapter 1, 9 to 10 a.m. Chapter 2, 10 a.m. to noon. February 3rd to February 3rd.
SPEAKER 04 :
I mean, it was one day. But they’re so panicked. And look at Axios, how tariffs hit the working class. Now, this is the typical scare tactics, right? And then they write, by the numbers, in an analysis out this morning, the conference board projects the combined impact of Trump’s tariff proposals could increase inflation by, are you ready? By 0.6 percentage points over a year. Now they concede sort of embarrassingly, now that’s not near the sky high inflation of 2022. Oh, you think? Oh, 0.6? Tell you what, I think women will pay another 25 cents for their avocado toast so they don’t get raped when they leave the store as they’re walking back to their car. If things are a little safer, do the Democrats not care about the safety and security of the American people, but Chuck Schumer’s waving around cans of Corona?
SPEAKER 03 :
Oh, your Corona’s going to go up. I wondered if I made that up in my head, because I knew he had a guacamole and a lime in the other hand. And a Corona. And a beer. If he keeps doing that, I’ll invite him over to my house.
SPEAKER 04 :
But the point made… Listen, if they keep going down this path, we’ll be in control for the next 100 years. The Democrats won’t win another election. Bring it. Bring David Hogg. Make sure those guys are running things. AOC, give us more. Chuck Schumer, better be careful. They might reform the IRS next. No, no, please don’t. What are we going to do?
SPEAKER 03 :
Gosh, what a…
SPEAKER 04 :
Time to be alive.
SPEAKER 03 :
All right. I love you. Happy Tuesday. Mike Gallagher here for us, here for all of us. 10 o’clock. Soon as we’re done on six 60 AM. The answer.
