We are Salem News Channel. President 6 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 1: Trump gives a fiery speech last night about the economy, 7 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 1: about the so called affordability crisis, and about the first 8 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: ten months of Trump two point zero. Fannie Lewis's boyfriend 9 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 1: slashed investigator build for one hundred and sixty hours a 10 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: week at two hundred and fifty dollars per hour. That 11 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: works out to two million dollars a year and twenty 12 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: two hours per day. I guess he doesn't require sleep. 13 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris says the Biden administration was right not to 14 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: push for the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files. By 15 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: the way, reportedly she may run for president in twenty 16 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: twenty eight, and she says the Democrats have a problem 17 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: with authenticity. Elan Omore says Ice is lying about not 18 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,400 Speaker 1: pulling over her son. The House Judiciary Committee holds hearings 19 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: on why the Southern Poverty Law Center, on which the 20 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: Biden administration heavily relied listed Turning Point USA and focused 21 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: on the family on its hate map. Nancy Pelosi's stock 22 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: market record makes Warren Buffett look Mediocrekennice Owens clashes with 23 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: Pierce Morgan over her speculation about Charlie Kirk's assassination. Another 24 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 1: George Soros back DA released an illegal alien with the 25 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: long history of encounters with the police, only to go 26 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: on and commit a homicide. Democrats in Congress hid historically 27 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: low approval ratings. Brown University suspect still at large, Law 28 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: enforcement is not pursuing a new person of interest, and 29 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: authorities are probing a possible connection between the mass shooting 30 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: at Brown University and the murder of the MIT professor 31 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: just forty miles away. All of this and more. Triple 32 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: eight nine seven one sage triple eight nine seven one 33 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: seven two four three is the number regarding the president's 34 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 1: speech last night. Four people on the left who have 35 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: been speculating about his decline and middle capacity that he 36 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 1: no longer appears to have the same energy and vibrancy 37 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: that he did before. I give you last night's speech. 38 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: It was fiery, it was aggressive, and he clearly was 39 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:40,359 Speaker 1: annoyed by the lack of appreciation by the mainscreen media 40 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: for his accomplishments in the first ten months. Again, however 41 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: you slice it, borders secured in thirty days or so, 42 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: when we are told for four years that they are 43 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: about as secure as they can be given the lack 44 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 1: of so called comprehensive immigration reform. Now no one's even 45 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: talking about the border anymore. It was the second biggest 46 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 1: issue in the election in twenty twenty four, and because 47 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: it's now secured, the media couldn't care less. They move 48 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: on to other things. Whether it's the Maryland Man, whether 49 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: it's Epstein files, whether it's the Venezuelan boat strikes. They 50 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,959 Speaker 1: always seem to find something to ignore the number one 51 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: thing most of people are concerned about, which is the economy. 52 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: And on that level, by virtually any measure, things are 53 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: better than they were ten months ago. President Trump said 54 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 1: prices are down. They're not down. They're up around two 55 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: point seven percent. That's still below three percent and below 56 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: what he inherited, and well below the nine percent that 57 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: hit the peak during the Biden administration. And again, the 58 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: Biden administration averaged five percent inflation each four years, which 59 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: is over twenty percent inflation during that four year period 60 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: of time. Are you kidding me? Gas prices were up 61 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: fifty percent from when Biden took office and now in 62 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: many states few states are under two dollars a gallon, 63 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: nationwide under three dollars a gallon? Are you kidding me? 64 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Stock market record highs recently and again, 65 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: sixty percent of Americans have money in the stock market, 66 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 1: either through their four oh one k's or through investment 67 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: portfolios directly, so this benefits everybody. And then no credit 68 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 1: whatsoever for negotiating the release of the hostages in Gaza 69 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 1: and their remains, No credit at all for US, no 70 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: longer being on the hook financially for the Russia Ukraine war. Nothing. 71 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:44,679 Speaker 1: So Trump is understandably miffed. The Media Research Center talked about, 72 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 1: for example, the coverage of ABCNBCCBS over the shutdown. Overwhelmingly 73 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: the three major nightly news programs blame Republicans, even though 74 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 1: it was a Democrat to shut it down, and talked 75 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: about things like the Republican healthcare crisis, which is what 76 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 1: Hakeem Jeffreys now calls it. They all call it that. 77 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 1: They all speak from the same sheet. Elon must once said, 78 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: isn't it interesting how the legacy media all say the 79 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: same thing at the same time, with the same phrases 80 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: number thirty one. 81 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 2: It doesn't seem weird that the legacy media all says 82 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 2: the same thing. They all say the same thing at 83 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 2: the same time, using the same phrases. They don't even 84 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 2: bother picking up thesaurus right. So, like right before the 85 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 2: debate between Biden and Shop as a Trump shop, everyone 86 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,239 Speaker 2: was saying, who says shop is attached? 87 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 3: But exactly? 88 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 2: You know, it's like, it's not a common phrase. 89 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 4: It's definitely not common to be repeated on air with 90 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 4: multiple people simultaneously. 91 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 3: That's weird. 92 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 2: Yes, that's coordinated. 93 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 1: Now we're going to go over some parts of the 94 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: speech Trump gave last night. He was about twenty minutes long. 95 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 1: I thought it was going to go much longer. That's 96 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 1: one of the shortest speeches he's ever given, isn't it. 97 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: And he gave it from the White House Diplomatic reception room. 98 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: For people who are on the left concerned about the economy, 99 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: who are listening to the show. Again, I appreciate your patronage, 100 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: including our friend Mark. However, you feel about the economy. 101 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: Trump exaggerated said inflation was gone. It's not gone. Not 102 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: all prices are down. Gas prices are down, egg prices 103 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 1: are down, other places are up. But again, overall people's 104 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 1: income is exceeding inflation. So they're better off now than 105 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: they were ten months ago. However you feel about that though, 106 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: What is the left wing prescription to address this? Oh, 107 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 1: raise taxes on rich people. How many times have we 108 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: done this? John Kennedy, when he talked about his tax cut, 109 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 1: talked about more money in the pockets of the American 110 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:07,799 Speaker 1: people to create more jobs, new salaries. The Laugher curved. 111 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: Lower taxes, people have a greater incentive to work. Wealthy 112 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: people have a greater incentive not to hide their money, 113 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: to put it back into investments and purchases and donations 114 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: for charity. What is your formula? Freeze rent on two 115 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: million people, as what Zoran mom Dami wants to do 116 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: when he becomes a mayor if he pulls it off, 117 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: free bus fare, raise taxes on wealthy neighborhoods with white people, 118 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: says mom Dami. What is your formula? Pursue climate change? 119 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: We talked about this yesterday. These nations in Europe that 120 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: have been doing this, Their economies have suffered, their prices 121 00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: for energy have suffered, Ford losing money on every single 122 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: ev and now they're cutting back general motors, same thing. 123 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: What is your answer that climate change is an existential threat? 124 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: And even Biden admitted that the so called Inflation Reduction 125 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: Act was more about climate change than anything else. Is 126 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: that your formula? I know you just like this man. 127 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: What is your formula? Race taxes on rich people, deny 128 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: new oil drilling permit, which is what Biden did, which 129 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: is in part would cause the prices to go up 130 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: so much. What is your idea? How are you going 131 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: to address the affordability crisis that you seem to be 132 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: complaining about. Now we come back, I want to play 133 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: you in exchange. I had with a left wing guy 134 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: named Tavis Smiley. Tavis Smiley for a long time had 135 00:08:55,960 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: a show on NPR and PBS hated Ronald Ray. This 136 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 1: is during the Reagan era, this is during the Obama era. 137 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 1: Rather hated Reagan, that Reagan tortured like people. And I 138 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: told him the recession that Reagan dealt with was more 139 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: severe than the so called Great Recession that Obama dealt 140 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: with inflation was higher, unemployment was higher, interest rates were 141 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: much higher. And Reagan did the opposite of what Obama did. 142 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: Reagan cut taxes, slowed down, the rate of domestic spending, 143 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 1: continued deregulation, and the economy took off. We head quarters 144 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: where we were doing five percent six percent, And Obama 145 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: did the opposite, raised taxes, substantial regulations, and for the 146 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,199 Speaker 1: first time in the history of this country, I think 147 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: since at least in nineteen forty, there was a year 148 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: during a recovery where not a single year during his 149 00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: administration did we hit three percent GDP. And so I 150 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: ask him, and I ask you, what is your formula? 151 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 1: You don't like the economy, You're unhappy with it. Therefore, 152 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: put in some Democrats, put in Kamala Harris and Tim Walls. 153 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Tax spend, regulate, no doge cutting, 154 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 1: no tax cutting. And he's reducing regulations substantially. I know 155 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: you can't see the regulations being reduced, but it changes 156 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 1: the behavior, puts more money in the pockets of the 157 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: American people. What is your answer? Triple eight nine seven, 158 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: one seven two four three. I'm Larry Elder Angel Tree 159 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 1: Christmas campaign with our friends at the non profit Prison Fellowship. 160 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: There are literally thousands of children all over America who 161 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,439 Speaker 1: have a mom or dad in prison, meaning they will 162 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: not see their parent on Christmas. That's why Angel Tree 163 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: is so important. You can put smiles on the faces 164 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: of children who, through no fault of their own, are 165 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: often struggling at a time of year which is meant 166 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: to be full of joy.

So again, the recession that Ronald 217 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: Reagan had to deal with in the early eighties was 218 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: far more severe than recession that Barack Obama dealt with 219 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 1: that the media has called the Great Recession. Normally, things 220 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: people are concerned about, things like inflation. Inflation with much 221 00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: higher during that Reagan period. Unemployment hier during the Reagan period, 222 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: interest rates substantially higher. But nobody calls that the Great Recession. 223 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 1: I'll tell you why, because Reagan dealt with it entirely 224 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 1: differently than the way Obama did. Reagan cut taxes, slowed 225 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: down the rate of domestic spending, and continued deregulation. Here's 226 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: the exchange I had with Tavis Smiley thirty eight. Here's 227 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: what I find puzzling Tavis about your analysis. I know 228 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: you're not a fan of Ronald Reagan. You once said 229 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: that Ronald Reagan quote tortured blacks end of quote. Ronald 230 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: Reagan did not have a specific black job's agenda. What 231 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: he did was cut taxes very deeply. He slowed down 232 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: the rate of government spending, and he continued and accelerated 233 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: deregulation policies that had been started by Jimmy Carter. The 234 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: black adult unemployment rate fell faster than the white adult 235 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: unemployment rate. The black teen age unemployment rate fell far 236 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: faster than did the white teenage unemployment rate. Black businesses 237 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 1: were created at a rate faster, the revenues grew at 238 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: a rate faster. All because Ronald Reagan dramatically cut taxes, 239 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 1: dramatically reduced the rate of government of domestic spending, and 240 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: he deregulated. This president is doing the opposite. He has 241 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: spent money, he is taxed, he's threatening to increase taxes 242 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: even more. He's imposed billions of dollars in regulations. And 243 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: fast forward two and a half years later, we got 244 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 1: nine point one percent unemployment. And during the Reagan era 245 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: of Tavis, unemployment in fact was even higher than the 246 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: highest during this Great recession. So I don't understand why 247 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 1: it is that you don't say the agenda ought to 248 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: be what Ronald Reagan did. 249 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 7: The short answer is this, you're awfully good at this. 250 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 7: That's why you've been doing it for seventeen years. Nice 251 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 7: try with respect, But Ronald Reagan decimated this country. I 252 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 7: don't know what America you were living in. 253 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: Respectfully descerated. 254 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 7: He decimated America and economically in every one way. 255 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 1: Give me one way, economic, give me one way. The 256 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: one thing that the one thing that Ronald. 257 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 7: Reagan did for people of color was to support the 258 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 7: earned income tax credit. But every other stat you cited 259 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 7: is we don't have time on ra to go. Number 260 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 7: for number. But every every stat you cited visa the 261 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 7: people of color does not measure up when you talk 262 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 7: to the people of color who had to live through 263 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 7: the hell of those eight years of Ronald Rae. 264 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: What do you mean talk to the people. I've just 265 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: given you labor stats. Since the stats, these are facts. 266 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 1: Employment fell faster, I get in the black community than 267 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: in the white community. It fell faster for teens, it 268 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: fell faster for adults, it fell faster for Hispanics. Not true, 269 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: And you're telling me when you talk to people, they 270 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: don't like Reagan. So therefore the stats go out of 271 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: the window. 272 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 7: Your numbers are not true. When I get back to 273 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 7: my office later to Dare tomorrow, I'll send you some 274 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 7: more numbers. 275 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 3: You know this. 276 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 7: Numbers don't lie. 277 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 3: But people do. 278 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 7: The numbers are very clear. 279 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: Liar, No, I'm saying numbers don't. 280 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 3: People do. 281 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: Take it out. 282 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 7: I'm saying, the people who provided you those numbers put 283 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 7: a spin hold those numbers. 284 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: By the way, the laughter you heard in the background 285 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: was Cornell West. I was debating Cornell West and Tavis 286 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: Smiley at the same time. So therefore, of course it 287 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: was a fair fight. Let me give you example of 288 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: white people will leave. This an affordability crisis. And again 289 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,199 Speaker 1: I'm not saying prices have gone down. They haven't. On average, 290 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 1: they've cot. They're at two point seven percent inflation year 291 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: to year, which is lower than what he inherited, and 292 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: much lower, of course, than what we experienced during the 293 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:17,399 Speaker 1: Biden years. Inflation has not gone away normally. What the 294 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,919 Speaker 1: FED wants is a two percent inflation. I think the 295 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,719 Speaker 1: ideal rate for inflation should be zero. When I studied 296 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: economics in college, the professor said that it should be zero. 297 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: Two percent is still bad in my opinion, but that 298 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,880 Speaker 1: seems to be the level that the FED and most 299 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 1: economists seem to find acceptable. Will it get there, absolutely, 300 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 1: it'll get there. When Biden took over, you know what, 301 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: it was one point four percent. I know, I speak quickly. 302 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 1: I'll do that again, one point four percent when Biden 303 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: took over, and the man took it to nine percent. 304 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: And now all of a sudden, this is an affordability crisis. 305 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,199 Speaker 1: These people are just too much. Let me give an 306 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 1: example of what I'm talking about, ABC, NBCCBS. Maybe CBS 307 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 1: will change a little bit now that it's been purchased 308 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: by a conservative but so far I haven't seen any 309 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 1: changes in the nightly news anyway during the shutdown. Again, 310 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: the Democrats are the ones that kept voting against the 311 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: clean CR, even the New York Times called it a 312 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: clean CR. A study of the nightly news ABC, CBS, 313 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: NBC during that period of time by Media Research Center, 314 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: eighty seven percent of the coverage quote heavily favored Democrats 315 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 1: over Republicans. The study found that only twelve of sixty 316 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: seven reports mentioned that Senate Democrats refused to vote for 317 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 1: a clean continuing resolution. Only twelve the sixty seven reports 318 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: even mentioned that all three networks, as the Media Research Center, 319 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 1: were vague about how the shutdown even occurred. They never 320 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: said that the Democrats refused to vote for the clean CR. 321 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 1: So Republicans got blamed. And this is the same kind 322 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: of coverage receiving scene right now. All of a sudden, 323 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 1: the border crisis is no more, so, let's not talk 324 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 1: about that anymore. Inflation lower than what President Trump inherited, 325 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: Let's not talk about it anymore. Gas price is substantially lord, 326 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: let's not talk about that anymore. Stock market all time high, well, 327 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: only rich people have money in the stock market. This 328 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: is why this man gave such a fiery speech because 329 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: he's ticked off and I don't blame him. And no 330 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: credit whatsoever again for us no longer being on the 331 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 1: hook financially for the rush of the Ukraine. Or isn't 332 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 1: that a big big deal? Isn't it a big big 333 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: deal that the hostages and Gaza and the remains have 334 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 1: been released. Isn't that a big big deal?

If Democrats 361 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: take control of Congress next year, they won't just block 362 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 1: President Trump's agenda. They'll work every day to undo it. 363 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: They'll try to pack the courus, raise taxes, gut border security, 364 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: and push through every far left policy imaginable. Hakeem Jeffreys 365 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: and Chuck Schumer will not rest until they've reversed all 366 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 1: the President Trump's victories. To stop them, voters must believe 367 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 1: Republicans are delivering a better deal for their wallets. That's 368 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: why Americans for a Balanced Budget is calling on Congress 369 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: to reverse a massive health care tax hike set to 370 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: hammer millions of hard working Americans with higher costs. Congress 371 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 1: must extend critical healthcare tax credits that keep premiums affordable 372 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:03,120 Speaker 1: for working families who buy their own coverage. With open 373 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,120 Speaker 1: enrollment underway, many are already facing sticker shock. Monthly premiums 374 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: are set to double for most. But there's still time 375 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: to act. But Congress must move now. If they don't, 376 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: they'll hand Democrats a political gift, one they'll use to 377 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,400 Speaker 1: take back power, block the Trump Agenda, and impose their 378 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 1: woke progressive ideas on America. Republicans one in twenty twenty 379 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,120 Speaker 1: four by standing with working Americans. If they turn their 380 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,400 Speaker 1: backs now, they risk their majorities and the Trump agenda itself. 381 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 1: Visit Stop healthcost Hikes dot com.

I follow Maria Romo Mornings with Maria, and 390 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,679 Speaker 8: she's been talking about what's going to happen in the 391 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 8: first of the year ever since the Big beautiful Bill 392 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 8: passed to And that's why the dimmerent Crafts are yapping 393 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 8: about affordability right now. As soon as January, February March 394 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 8: comes and people see there's way more money in their 395 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 8: wallet their pocketbook and less money being taken out of 396 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 8: their taxes, this talking point is going to go away. 397 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 8: The other thing I'd like to say is I'd like 398 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 8: to quit calling this the Affordable Care Act. Anything that 399 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 8: has to be subsidized at the point that it has 400 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 8: to be, it's not affordable. And why are we sub 401 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 8: I think couples insurance with up making six hundred thousand 402 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 8: dollars a year, I would think that they would be 403 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 8: able to do for their own bills. 404 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:59,400 Speaker 1: Dana, it's about as well named as the inflation Reduction act. Yeah, yeah, 405 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: And even a Biden later on admitted that most of 406 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: the money I went towards combating so called climate change. 407 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 1: But you're right. That's why later on the show, we're 408 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 1: going to talk to an investment guru. I've told young people, 409 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 1: please get into the stock market. Invest in America. We 410 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: have ai revolution coming. It's going to make things a 411 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: lot more efficient, going to make people a lot more productive, 412 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 1: self driving cars, going to give people a lot more 413 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 1: spare time, robotics, things that are happening in the economy, 414 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 1: in the world are truly truly exciting. And if you're 415 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: a young person and you're not in the stock market, 416 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: you're missing out. You're not investing in the country. That 417 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 1: means you don't believe in yourself. And I told you 418 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:47,680 Speaker 1: about the time I met all these young marines at 419 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: Camp Pendleton here in California. There was a ceremony put 420 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 1: on by Dana Robaker from my father who was posthumously 421 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: receiving a Congressional gold medal as a Monfret point marine. 422 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: Something around a table having a meal with these marines, 423 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 1: and I said, how many of you have money in 424 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 1: the stock market. There were twelve of them. None did, 425 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: I said, you kidding me, and they're all in their 426 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 1: early twenties. I said, you should take ten percent of 427 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 1: your paycheck and put it in the stock market. Every 428 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: paycheck you have. You can easily engineer your life so 429 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: that you can survive with a ten percent reduction in 430 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: your income and put that money in the stock market. 431 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: And then you get my age. You're going to have 432 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: a substantial seven figure portfolio. And when you do call me, 433 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: I'll be one hundred and forty years old. But you 434 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: call me and you say, mister Eller, you were right. 435 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: I even gave them a list of stocks I would 436 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:45,880 Speaker 1: recommend that they purchase. Now, I'm not sure how many 437 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 1: of them did it, and I never followed it up, 438 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,919 Speaker 1: but I said, probably one of you will listen to me, 439 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: maybe two. The rest of you won't, and that's because 440 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: you don't understand the economic engine known as the United 441 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: States of America and something called compound interest, and be 442 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 1: sure to reinvest your diffidends SoSE your money will make 443 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 1: money on the money. We'll find out how many of 444 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: them did it. So I'm saying all this because Dana 445 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 1: is right. The economy right now is poised to take 446 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,959 Speaker 1: off much of the things in the so called big 447 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: Beautiful Bill don't kick off, don't kick in until the 448 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:24,439 Speaker 1: beginning of the year, and no tax on tips, no 449 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: tax on overtime, tax breaks for people on Social Security, 450 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 1: being able to expense investments for businesses. Are you kidding me? 451 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 1: This is going to be stupendous and the borders being 452 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 1: secured will also have a big economic boom as well. 453 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 1: All of this means, get ready, I'm Lario. 454 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 9: We are now seeing reverse migration as migrants go back home, 455 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 9: leaving more housing and more jobs for Americans. In the 456 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 9: year before my election, all net creation of jobs was 457 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 9: going to foreign migrants. Since I took office, one hundred 458 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 9: percent of all net job creation has gone to American 459 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 9: born citizens, one hundred percent. 460 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 3: In the end, government either. 461 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 9: Serves the productive, patriotic, hardworking American citizen, or it serves 462 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 9: those who break the laws, cheat the system, and seek 463 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 9: power and profit at the expense of our nation. 464 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: Triple late nine seven one sage triple eight nine seven 465 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: one seven two four to three. I am Larry Elder. 466 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 1: We are a saleing news channel and we're come to 467 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,120 Speaker 1: you from the Relief Factor Studio.

That's relief factor dot com. See, Democrats 470 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: are in a very very awkward position. They really wish 471 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: they could fast forward what's going on right now to 472 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 1: the day before or the midterms, so they could say 473 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: that Donald Trump took a sledgehammer to the economy, messed 474 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: everything up, so now you need Democrats in charge to 475 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: stop his agender for the next two years. The bad 476 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: news is that all this stuff is going to kick in. 477 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: And I'm old enough to remember Reagan comes in and 478 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: he cuts taxes, cuts regulations, slows down the rate of 479 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: government spending, as I explained to mister Smiley, But it 480 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: took a while. There was doom, there was gloom. You 481 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 1: know what Reagan did, He stayed the course. And that's 482 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: exactly what Trump it's going to do. Stay the course. 483 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: How can it not get better? If Milt Freedman is right, 484 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: there are four ways of spending money for the most 485 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 1: efficient to the least efficient, least deficient. The least deficient 486 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: is somebody else's money on somebody else, and Trump is 487 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 1: doing something about that. Those did not meet its grand deals. Predictions, 488 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 1: but it still cut a substantial amount of spending from 489 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 1: the federal government, and the number of people employed by 490 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: the federal government has not been this low and ten years. 491 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 1: How can that not have a benefit? How can putting 492 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: more money in the pockets of the American people with 493 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: no tax on tips, no tax on Social Security, tax 494 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 1: breaks for people on Social Security. How can that not 495 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: be beneficial? How could it not be beneficial to extend 496 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: the Trump tax cuts. How could it not be beneficial 497 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 1: to expense right away capital investments if you're running a business. 498 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 1: How can it not be beneficial to stop illegal aliens from 499 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: coming into the country A large percentage of them getting 500 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 1: benefits that taxpayers paid for, including health care, the emergency room, 501 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: education K through twelve if they bring children. Because by law, 502 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: schools cannot ask about your immigration status and cannot forbid 503 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: you to enroll because of your immigration status. All this 504 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 1: is expensive, and most illegal aliens have little or no education, 505 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 1: which means they compete against people in America who have 506 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: high schooled or less. How can this not be beneficial? 507 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: It will be getting rid of the mandates for evs. 508 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: Ford General Motor lost money for every EV they sold. 509 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: The ev manufacture that's doing well making money is Tesla. 510 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: How can this not be beneficial? How can it not 511 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: be beneficial for countries that impose tariffs on our goods 512 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: to lower those terrorists for fear that we're going to retaliate. 513 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: How can it not be beneficial for countries with industries 514 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: to put them in America to avoid the terriffs. How 515 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: can that not be beneficial? It's going to be. And 516 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: Democrats better hope that this economy does not take off 517 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 1: like a rocket ship as I suggested. Will we may 518 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 1: be having quarters where there's five percent GDP growth, six 519 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: percent gat growth, as what's happened during the Reagan administration. 520 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 1: So if you're on the left and you hate Donald Trump, 521 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 1: you're literally in the position of hoping the economy does poorly, 522 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 1: hoping your fellow Americans do not prosper, hoping people don't 523 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: get ahead, because after all, Donald Trump is a fashion 524 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: and a Nazi and a Hitler and a tyrant, and 525 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: therefore you don't want him to have two more years. 526 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: What a remarkable position to be in if you're a 527 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: Democrat number thirty two. 528 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 9: And after just one year we have achieved more than 529 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 9: anyone could have imagined. Starting on day one, I took 530 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 9: immediate action to stop the invasion of our southern border. 531 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 9: For the past seven months, zero illegal aliens have been 532 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 9: allowed into our country, which everyone said was absolutely impossible. 533 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 9: Do you remember when Joe Biden said that he needed 534 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 9: Congress to pass legislation to help close the border. He 535 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 9: was always blaming Congress and everyone else. As it turned out, 536 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 9: we didn't need legislation. 537 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 3: We just needed a new president. 538 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 9: We inherited the worst border anywhere in the world, and 539 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 9: we quickly turned it into the strongest border in the 540 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 9: history of our country. 541 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 3: In other words, in a few short months, we. 542 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 9: Went from worst to best with deporting criminals restoring safety 543 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 9: to our most dangerous cities. Just take a look at Washington, 544 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 9: d C. It's at levels of safety that we've never 545 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 9: seen before. 546 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 1: And again, where's the love for that? Trump controversially deployed 547 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 1: National Guard to Washington, DC, and within a short period 548 00:32:56,040 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: of time, even by the admission of the DC mayor, 549 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 1: who's a Democrat and not a Trump fan, comminicides declined dramatically, 550 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 1: carjackings decline dramatically, and it didn't take long. Is anybody 551 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: talking about crime now in DC? Anybody talking about that. 552 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 1: Mom's the word. Let's talk about Kilmar Abragio Garcia. All 553 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 1: of a sudden, the Democrats have a new hero, and 554 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 1: the hero are Venezuelan narco traffickers on boats. By the way, 555 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, having a friendly interview on the Jimmy Kimmel Show, 556 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 1: was asked about the Epstein files, and she said, well, 557 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 1: we were absolutely right not to pressure the DOJ into 558 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: releasing the Epstein files because we believe in independent DOJ. 559 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 1: I mean the same independent DJ that engaged in the 560 00:33:55,520 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 1: lawfair against Donald Trump. None of these cases, not the 561 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 1: Document's case, not the January sixth, so called insurrection case, 562 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 1: not the Fondie Lewis case, none of these things have 563 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 1: borne any fruit. But hey, we kept our hands off 564 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:17,319 Speaker 1: the DOJ. Never mind all the revelations showing that the 565 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:22,320 Speaker 1: Biden administration all of a sudden ignored the intel agents. 566 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: FBI agents had said, there's no real evidence that they're 567 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 1: Russians are trying to get Trump elected, But hey, we 568 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 1: kept our hands off. Relief Factor loves hearing from pain 569 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 1: free customers and hopes we can help you. 570 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 10: Next. 571 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 1: Here's what Bill says, I've been crawling under sinks and 572 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,759 Speaker 1: working long hours for decades. My back and knees took 573 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 1: the punishment. I thought pain was just part of the trade, 574 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: but Relief Factors surprised me. Within weeks, I was working 575 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 1: without wincing. I could get down on the floor and 576 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 1: get back up again without thinking twice. End of quote. 577 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 1: Bill knows a thing or two about hard work. He 578 00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 1: knows pipes, he knows tools, he knows long days in 579 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: the job. What he didn't know is how good life 580 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: feels when pain stops tagging along. Relief Factor didn't just 581 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: change Bill's trade, it changed his tomorrow.

They've been betrayed on the arrests, the relief pie. 626 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,879 Speaker 12: We're not getting any meat on these bones. And I'm 627 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:04,880 Speaker 12: saying that there is a lot on the line for 628 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 12: President Trump out of the gate in twenty twenty six. 629 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,720 Speaker 12: The time is ticking very close to the next election 630 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 12: season and the stakes are all on the table. Larry, 631 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 12: if he doesn't win majority in House and Senate. You know, 632 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 12: he's impeached and now we're worried about will he finishes term, 633 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:23,839 Speaker 12: whether the justification is there or not. You know, that's 634 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 12: what they're doing. They're coming for blood. So Larry, where 635 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 12: does that blue collar guy, where does he get reliefed? 636 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 12: Coming soon?

The 639 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:39,919 Speaker 1: original sin is I will lower prices on day one. 640 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 1: Who can do that? Who can do that? It's about 641 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: managing expectations. And as people have said before, America is 642 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,239 Speaker 1: a big aircraft. It doesn't turn on a dime like 643 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,680 Speaker 1: a jet ski. But it's going to come. It's going 644 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,479 Speaker 1: to come well in time for the midterms. I'm Larry Older, 645 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 1: so let's get her teed up. SUBDG triple ate nine 646 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 1: seven one s A G E triple eate nine seven 647 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 1: one seven two four to three. Larry Elder, Salem News Channel, 648 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,320 Speaker 1: So what did you think you saw President's Trump's speech 649 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:25,759 Speaker 1: last night? Twenty minutes very fiery, defended his record, talked 650 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:30,759 Speaker 1: about the future, talked about the first ten months, and 651 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 1: says we're poised for a economy that's going to take 652 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 1: off like nobody's business. Now. I know he's prone to puffery, 653 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,959 Speaker 1: prone to exaggerate. He said prices were down, They're not down. 654 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 1: Inflation is gone, it's not gone. But he's absolutely right 655 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: about the future of this economy. Over the next several months, 656 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 1: well before the midterms, it's going to kick in. So 657 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:57,920 Speaker 1: if the issue is still affordability, and by the way, 658 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:01,439 Speaker 1: once this happens, believe me, BC, ABC, CBS will stop 659 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:05,760 Speaker 1: talking about affordability and they'll find something else to talk about. 660 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 1: That's how they roll. Kamala Harris is making noises about 661 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 1: running in twenty twenty eight, and here's her analysis of 662 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:21,320 Speaker 1: why Democrats are at a record low in Congress eighteen 663 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:25,240 Speaker 1: percent approval rating. The Republicans have nothing to write about 664 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,320 Speaker 1: thirty five percent, but it's much better than eighteen percent. 665 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:32,920 Speaker 1: Here's Kamala Harris's analysis of why it is that Democrats 666 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 1: are so unpopular number twenty five. 667 00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 13: I think, I think that they are in many there 668 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:43,840 Speaker 13: in some ways, we are very much stuck in the past, 669 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 13: and so we're not speaking in a way that sounds 670 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:53,840 Speaker 13: authentic or relatable or just relevant. There is a lot 671 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 13: that we need to do that is about recognizing we 672 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 13: give a lot of lips is to listening to the people, 673 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 13: But are we really listening to the people. 674 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 1: What does that even mean? Are we listening to the people? 675 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:19,000 Speaker 1: What does that even mean? We give lip service, but 676 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 1: we're not being authentic. I'm not looking for a fishing buddy. 677 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 1: I'm not looking for somebody to go bowling with. I'm 678 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 1: looking for somebody that understands the best economy is one 679 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 1: where you leave more money in the pockets of the 680 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 1: American people, where you get the regulators off the backs 681 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 1: of the American people and get out of the way. 682 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:49,120 Speaker 1: That's what I want. I have my own friends. In 683 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 1: some ways, we're not listening to the people. What are you 684 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:57,840 Speaker 1: really talking about? It's not complicated. Democrats have a track record. 685 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:04,759 Speaker 1: As I mentioned last hour, the recovery that Obama oversaw 686 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 1: was the first time there was a recovery since nineteen 687 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 1: forty where we didn't have at least one year with 688 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 1: three percent GDP. Because he did the opposite of what 689 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 1: Reagan did. Reagan cut taxes, Obama raised him and of 690 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: course foisted this brand new entitlement program known as Obamacare 691 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: down the throats of the American people. I told you then, 692 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 1: and I wrote then, I said, this is a taking time, Bob. 693 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,080 Speaker 1: They frontloadered the things so it doesn't look as expensive 694 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 1: as it is. But when these somebodies run out, and 695 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 1: based on the way they plan this, they will and 696 00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 1: a certain number of people will now be addicted to Obamacare. 697 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 1: They'll yell and scream if it's taken away, and then 698 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,319 Speaker 1: the pressure will be on to finish the job, which 699 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:54,280 Speaker 1: is single pair, which is exactly what they want. Here's 700 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 1: a New York Congressman named La Looda talking about this 701 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:57,640 Speaker 1: number twenty. 702 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 14: Three friends and colleagues did so this morning. 703 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:05,560 Speaker 15: So it doesn't sound like the extension of the Obamacare 704 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:09,320 Speaker 15: subsidies that vote is going to happen before the subsidies 705 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 15: expire at the very end of the month. Do you 706 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 15: think that Congress has failed the American people. We have 707 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,280 Speaker 15: been covering this issue for months and months and months. 708 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 15: This deadline was not a secret, and now Christmas is 709 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,800 Speaker 15: coming and members of Congress are going to go home 710 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 15: and a lot of Americans, twenty four million, are going 711 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 15: to lose these subsidies, and many of them are not 712 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 15: going to be able to afford health insurance. 713 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 14: Yeah, A police chief with whom I used to work, 714 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 14: used to say, if it's predictable, it's preventable. 715 00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:40,839 Speaker 10: This issue was absolutely predictable. 716 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 14: The expery of these tax credits were in fact predictable 717 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,840 Speaker 14: by all four and thirty five members of Congress. But 718 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 14: when three years ago when Democrats passed them, they were 719 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:52,240 Speaker 14: called temporary and pandemic related. 720 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:53,839 Speaker 10: They are always meant to be just that. 721 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:58,759 Speaker 14: However, a lot of Americans, innocent people acting reasonably tendatives 722 00:43:58,800 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 14: start to rely on. 723 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 10: Them, but they tend to mask the underlying issues with Obamacare. 724 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:07,840 Speaker 14: And if you go back fifteen years ago when Obamacare 725 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:12,880 Speaker 14: was passed, now you have premiums rising sixty percent faster 726 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:17,440 Speaker 14: than inflation. One in three families claims are denied, all 727 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:21,239 Speaker 14: while insurance companies are making a gazillion dollars off of 728 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 14: the backs of taxpayers. There are some inherent flaws in Obamacare, 729 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:28,719 Speaker 14: and I think it's up to both parties to address 730 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:31,399 Speaker 14: those flaws. Like I said, Republicans are going to vote 731 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,040 Speaker 14: in a Republican built tonight that tends to address some 732 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 14: of the longer term issues, but Congress also needs to 733 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 14: attack the shorter term issues that relate to the expiry 734 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 14: of these tax credits. 735 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 15: You told my colleagues Mani Raju that Speaker Johnson needs 736 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:45,320 Speaker 15: to do better. 737 00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 12: Do you think. 738 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 1: The bottom line is healthcare is a commodity like anything else, 739 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 1: and more competition. The cheaper the prices, the better the quality, 740 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:08,960 Speaker 1: the greater the innovation, the greater the accessibility. Democrats start 741 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:12,719 Speaker 1: from a premise that health care is a right, which 742 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,440 Speaker 1: means a right that should be paid for by other people. 743 00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 1: I mentioned this yesterday. Years ago, the head of the 744 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,759 Speaker 1: Canadian Medical Association, which is equivalent of our American Medical Association, 745 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 1: said that our system in Canada, which is single payer, 746 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:37,440 Speaker 1: is imploding. That's the verbs she used, not Larry Elder, imploding. 747 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:43,960 Speaker 1: And the answer she said is more competition. The Democrats 748 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: believe the solution is the opposite, less competition, more government involvement. 749 00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 1: How many times did Obama say before he became president 750 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,760 Speaker 1: and during his presidency, if I were starting from scratch, 751 00:45:57,920 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 1: which is how he phrased it, I would have seen 752 00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:07,799 Speaker 1: which is what they have up north. But Democrats do 753 00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:12,120 Speaker 1: not see the world that way. They see the world 754 00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 1: very differently, which is why they need to be defeated. 755 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:31,120 Speaker 1: Trump talked about the corruption, politicians ripping off taxpayers. Listen 756 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:32,960 Speaker 1: to this about Minnesota Number seven. 757 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:39,319 Speaker 16: So Molly community in Minnesota has been in the news 758 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:42,720 Speaker 16: recently because of a massive federal fraud case and heated 759 00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:44,760 Speaker 16: political rhetoric from President Trump. 760 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,879 Speaker 17: Joanah Kaplan of CBS News Minnesota has an exclusive look 761 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:54,000 Speaker 17: now at how fraudster spent hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars. 762 00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 18: A honeymoon in the Maldives, a fleet of luxury cars. 763 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 18: Here's a box with more than two hundred seventy thousand 764 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 18: dollars in cash. This was all evidence from a Neutrova 765 00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:10,239 Speaker 18: files obtained exclusively by CBS News showing how a group 766 00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:15,840 Speaker 18: of convicted Minnesota fraudsters spent taxpayer dollars. One text message reads, 767 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 18: you are going to be the richest twenty five year old. 768 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 19: We're not even at the end of the beginning of 769 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:25,560 Speaker 19: our pursuit of the stolen money and of the people 770 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 19: who stole it. 771 00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 18: US Attorney Daniel Rosen leads the office digging into the 772 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,960 Speaker 18: wave of COVID era fraud that hit Minnesota. 773 00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:34,240 Speaker 1: So how much money. 774 00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:37,320 Speaker 18: Are we talking about stolen from the American taxpayer? 775 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,719 Speaker 19: I can say with great comfort, Well, and excessive a 776 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 19: billion dollars. 777 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:45,160 Speaker 18: In the past three years, eighty seven defendants have been charged, 778 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 18: sixty one convicted. The majority of them are Somali American 779 00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 18: Minnesota has the nation's largest Somali population. The perpetrators are 780 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:57,640 Speaker 18: accused of ripping off state run programs intended to feed 781 00:47:57,719 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 18: low income kids, house the disabled, and provide services to 782 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 18: autistic children. 783 00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 3: This was a get rich scheme. 784 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:07,920 Speaker 18: Andy Lueger was the US attorney who first examined this fraud. 785 00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:09,239 Speaker 18: He left in January. 786 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,440 Speaker 4: One of the things we discovered is that a number 787 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:16,640 Speaker 4: of the people involved were buying investment property resort property 788 00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:17,480 Speaker 4: in Kenya. 789 00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:21,239 Speaker 18: Wire transfers reviewed by CBS News also show more than 790 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:24,919 Speaker 18: one million dollars went to Chinese banks. The Trump administration 791 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:28,040 Speaker 18: has said it's investigating whether any of the money fell 792 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:31,239 Speaker 18: into the hands of terror groups like Al Shabab and Somalia, 793 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 18: but both Luger and Rosen agree the evidence so far 794 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:38,359 Speaker 18: shows the criminals were only interested in getting rich. So 795 00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:43,120 Speaker 18: there's no evidence that any of these convicted or those 796 00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 18: who are charged, sent a check and directly gave it 797 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:46,920 Speaker 18: to al Shabab. 798 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 19: I think that's a fair characterization. 799 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:54,880 Speaker 18: These are federally funded programs. They happen in every US state. 800 00:48:55,680 --> 00:49:00,560 Speaker 18: What happened here in Minnesota that allowed this fraud to 801 00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:02,839 Speaker 18: materialize to metastasize. 802 00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 19: It appears that the people at the highest levels of 803 00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:08,319 Speaker 19: responsibility in the government of the state of Minnesota looked 804 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:08,919 Speaker 19: the other way. 805 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 18: A spokeswoman for Minnesota Governor Tim Watson I tells us 806 00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:18,319 Speaker 18: that fighting the fraud it's his quote top priority and 807 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 18: thought of something that happens in states red and blue.

Look at Minnesota, where 851 00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 9: some millions have taken over the economics of the state 852 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:51,400 Speaker 9: and have stolen billions and billions of dollars from Minnesota 853 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:54,520 Speaker 9: and indeed from the United States of America. And we're 854 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:56,840 Speaker 9: going to put an end to it. For so long 855 00:51:56,960 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 9: as before my election, the vast majority of good and 856 00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:05,560 Speaker 9: decent Americans were forced to watch as corrupt politician plundered 857 00:52:05,560 --> 00:52:09,880 Speaker 9: the halls of power, exploited our taxpayers, and pillaged every 858 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,440 Speaker 9: system that makes civilized society function. 859 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 3: But not anymore. 860 00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:18,880 Speaker 1: He also talked about reverse migration number nineteen. 861 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 9: A major factor in driving up housing costs was the 862 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:24,160 Speaker 9: colossal border invasion. 863 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:28,759 Speaker 3: We have never been invaded. This is the worst. 864 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 9: Thing that Frankly, in my opinion, the worst thing that 865 00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:35,400 Speaker 9: the Biden administration did to our country is the invasion 866 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 9: at the border. The last administration and their allies in 867 00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:43,359 Speaker 9: Congress brought in millions and millions of migrants and gave 868 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 9: them taxpayer funded housing while your rent and housing costs chirocketed, 869 00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:51,399 Speaker 9: over sixty percent of growth in the rental market came 870 00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:55,239 Speaker 9: from foreign migrants. At the same time, illegal aliens all 871 00:52:55,320 --> 00:52:59,319 Speaker 9: American jobs and flooded emergency rooms, getting free health care 872 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:03,560 Speaker 9: and education paid for by you, the American taxpayer. They 873 00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:07,279 Speaker 9: also increased the cost of law enforcement by numbers so 874 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:10,839 Speaker 9: high that they are not even to be mentioned. For 875 00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:13,400 Speaker 9: the first time in fifty years, we are now seeing 876 00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:17,720 Speaker 9: reverse migration as migrants go back home, leaving more housing 877 00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:19,680 Speaker 9: and more jobs for Americans. 878 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:22,000 Speaker 3: In the year before my election. 879 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:26,799 Speaker 9: All net creation of jobs was going to foreign migrants. 880 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:31,440 Speaker 9: Since I took office, one hundred percent of all net 881 00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:36,400 Speaker 9: job creation has gone to American born citizens. 882 00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:37,880 Speaker 3: One hundred percent. 883 00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:44,840 Speaker 1: Now I know half the country can't stand this man. 884 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:49,080 Speaker 1: Our good friend Mark, who will very likely chime in today, 885 00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:56,240 Speaker 1: can't stand this man. I have a question. For years, 886 00:53:56,400 --> 00:54:01,319 Speaker 1: we saw them cover up Biden's obvious middle decline. Jake 887 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:04,600 Speaker 1: Tapper recently says the reason of reporting on Trump's middle 888 00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:07,879 Speaker 1: status is because he dropped the ball on Biden doesn't 889 00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:09,200 Speaker 1: want the same thing that happens. And now we're going 890 00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:13,120 Speaker 1: to talk about Trump's middle status. Did he sound tired? 891 00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:18,719 Speaker 1: Did he sound exhausted? Did he sound cognitively impaired? 892 00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:25,160 Speaker 9: Number twenty Along with the just pasted one big beautiful 893 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:29,479 Speaker 9: bill tonight, I am also proud to announce that more 894 00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:33,279 Speaker 9: than one thousand, four hundred fifty thousand Think of this, 895 00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:38,800 Speaker 9: one million, four hundred and fifty thousand military service members 896 00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 9: will receive a special we call Warrior dividend before Christmas. 897 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:46,240 Speaker 3: So Warrior Dividend in. 898 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:50,480 Speaker 9: Honor of our nations founding in seventeen seventy six, we 899 00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:55,000 Speaker 9: are sending every soldier one thousand, seven hundred and seventy 900 00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:56,560 Speaker 9: six dollars. 901 00:54:57,160 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 3: Think of that, and the checks are already on the way. 902 00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:05,239 Speaker 9: Nobody understood that one until about thirty minutes ago. 903 00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:07,520 Speaker 3: We made a lot more money. 904 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:11,840 Speaker 1: Than and of course you talked about the tax refund 905 00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:16,279 Speaker 1: and of course, anytime you cut taxes, the left will 906 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:19,680 Speaker 1: say automatically that you are tax cuts for the rich. 907 00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 1: Number twenty one. 908 00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:25,160 Speaker 9: Next year, you will also see the results of the 909 00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 9: largest tax cut that's in American history, that were really 910 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:34,439 Speaker 9: accomplished through our great, big, beautiful bill, perhaps the most 911 00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:39,760 Speaker 9: sweeping legislation ever passed in Congress. We wrapped twelve different 912 00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:43,920 Speaker 9: bills up into one beautiful bill that includes no tax 913 00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:47,359 Speaker 9: on tips, no tax on overtime, and no tax on 914 00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:52,600 Speaker 9: Social Security for our great seniors.

David, you're in the lari of 919 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:08,640 Speaker 1: the show. Thank you so much for calling. 920 00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:13,239 Speaker 20: Yeah, I just wanted to find out that I want 921 00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:16,160 Speaker 20: you to define a single payer system. 922 00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:20,040 Speaker 1: What that is single payer system is government pays for 923 00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:22,360 Speaker 1: your health care. Of course they tax people for it, 924 00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:23,399 Speaker 1: but government pays for it. 925 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 11: I see, Yeah, thank you sir, Yeah, no problem. 926 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:30,120 Speaker 1: And that's exactly what Obama says he wanted. If I 927 00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:32,080 Speaker 1: could start all over again, I would have single payer. 928 00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 1: Now nothing is free, so taxpayers pay a lot more 929 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:38,480 Speaker 1: for single payer. But it means you walk into a 930 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 1: clinic and you get whatever health care you need, pay 931 00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:48,160 Speaker 1: for by the government, meaning fellow taxpayers. That's why they 932 00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:51,680 Speaker 1: have long lines in Canada. That's why a lot of 933 00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:54,239 Speaker 1: Canadians come to America for their healthcare because they don't 934 00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 1: want to wait. Now, this mantra that tax cuts are 935 00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:04,520 Speaker 1: just for the is what Democrats routinely say. I want 936 00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 1: to remind you of an exchange between orn Hat, Senator 937 00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:11,320 Speaker 1: from Utah, and Shared Brown, Senator from Ohio. And orn Hatch, 938 00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:14,640 Speaker 1: who'd been in the Senate a long time and had 939 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:18,480 Speaker 1: worked with Democrats for a lot of things, had had 940 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 1: it with this mantra that you only care about the rich. 941 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:28,360 Speaker 1: I told you that my mom lifelong Democrat, dad lifelong Republican. 942 00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:31,880 Speaker 1: They had many, many classes over issues. But never did 943 00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 1: I hear my mother say that my dad only cared 944 00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:37,280 Speaker 1: about the rich. Never did I hear my mom say 945 00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:41,440 Speaker 1: that you only care about those with money. But this 946 00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:44,959 Speaker 1: is what Democrats do. The big beautiful bill tax cuts 947 00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:48,720 Speaker 1: benefit everybody who pays taxes. Rich paid disapportionately more tax 948 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:51,560 Speaker 1: so they would get a disapportionately bigger benefit. But everybody 949 00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:55,560 Speaker 1: who pays taxes gets a break. Triple eight nine to 950 00:57:55,600 --> 00:58:10,600 Speaker 1: seventy one Sage, I'm Larialed triple late nine seven one 951 00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:13,720 Speaker 1: Skge triple late ninety seven one seven two four to three. 952 00:58:13,680 --> 00:58:17,360 Speaker 1: I am Larry Elder Salem the News channel. Regarding this 953 00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 1: business about Republicans only care about the rich, There was 954 00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 1: an article in the New York Times about the billionaires 955 00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:30,880 Speaker 1: who are in the Trump administration. Do you know that 956 00:58:31,080 --> 00:58:35,760 Speaker 1: more billionaires supported Kamala Harrison Trump. More billionaires gave more 957 00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:41,680 Speaker 1: money to Kamala Harris than Trump. The average Republican household 958 00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:46,200 Speaker 1: is less wealthy than the average Democrat household. So Orange Hatch, 959 00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:51,600 Speaker 1: Senator from Utah, a longtime senator, was squaring off with 960 00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:57,080 Speaker 1: Shared Brown, Senator from Ohio, and Hatch had had it 961 00:58:57,120 --> 00:59:00,360 Speaker 1: with this standard BS rhetoric that you guys own only 962 00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:04,520 Speaker 1: care about the rich. Let's hear it, Center Brown. 963 00:59:04,560 --> 00:59:05,680 Speaker 20: I'd like to Center Brown. 964 00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 21: Thanks, chairman. A dozen years ago, when you did the 965 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:14,200 Speaker 21: tax holiday here, all the corporations had all this money, 966 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:16,120 Speaker 21: and of course they were going to be eager to 967 00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:18,440 Speaker 21: give it out to work. Well, actually they didn't give 968 00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:21,400 Speaker 21: it out to workers. They did stock buybacks, they did 969 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:23,760 Speaker 21: executive compensation, they paid out in gividence. 970 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:25,520 Speaker 3: Then somebody cited Britain. 971 00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:26,560 Speaker 1: Great Britain has. 972 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:30,360 Speaker 21: Done a series of tax cuts and their wages were 973 00:59:30,360 --> 00:59:30,840 Speaker 21: flat two. 974 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:33,040 Speaker 3: So this is really wishful thinking. 975 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:34,960 Speaker 21: But I do know that the tv ads that are 976 00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:37,960 Speaker 21: going to be run against the five most important senators 977 00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:40,720 Speaker 21: on this committee, the tv ads at the independent groups 978 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 21: will run will of course say Senator mccaskell and Senator 979 00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:49,640 Speaker 21: Casey and Senator Stabno and Senator Nelson are voting against 980 00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:53,200 Speaker 21: a four thousand dollars raise that this tax cut is 981 00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:54,320 Speaker 21: going to bestow on them. 982 00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:55,560 Speaker 3: We know it's coming. 983 00:59:55,760 --> 00:59:59,520 Speaker 21: We know you'll have way more money to promote that 984 00:59:59,680 --> 00:59:59,960 Speaker 21: than we. 985 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:01,120 Speaker 3: You will have to defend it. 986 01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:04,000 Speaker 21: But that's why the widening amendments so important. And I 987 01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:07,520 Speaker 21: just think it would be nice just tonight before we 988 01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:09,920 Speaker 21: go home, to just acknowledge, well, this tax cut really 989 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:12,040 Speaker 21: is not for the middle classes, for the rich. And 990 01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:14,080 Speaker 21: that whole thing about higher wages, well, it's a good 991 01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:17,160 Speaker 21: selling point, but we know companies don't just give away 992 01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:20,240 Speaker 21: higher wages. They just don't give away higher wages just 993 01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:20,640 Speaker 21: because they. 994 01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:21,160 Speaker 3: Have more money. 995 01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:23,120 Speaker 21: Corporations are sitting on a lot of money now, They're 996 01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:24,160 Speaker 21: sitting on a lot of profits. 997 01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:25,880 Speaker 3: Now. I don't see wages going up. 998 01:00:25,920 --> 01:00:29,160 Speaker 21: So just spare us the spars, the bank shot, spare 999 01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:33,240 Speaker 21: us the sarcasm and the satire, and let's spare it that. 1000 01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:36,200 Speaker 20: I'm going to just say to you that I come 1001 01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:41,320 Speaker 20: from the poor people, and I've been here working my 1002 01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:45,560 Speaker 20: host thanking career for people who don't have a chance. 1003 01:00:46,480 --> 01:00:49,440 Speaker 20: And I really resent anybody saying that I'm just doing 1004 01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:52,320 Speaker 20: this for the rich. Give me a break. I think 1005 01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:54,840 Speaker 20: you guys overplay that all the time, and it gets old, 1006 01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:59,120 Speaker 20: and frankly, yata quit, mister chaman. The public is just 1007 01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:02,840 Speaker 20: I'm not through, okay. I get kind of sick and 1008 01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:06,480 Speaker 20: tired of it. I'm true, it's a nice political play. 1009 01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:09,320 Speaker 21: Well, mister chair True, all due respect, I get sick 1010 01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:15,320 Speaker 21: and tired of the richest getting richer. We do attack 1011 01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:19,959 Speaker 21: or middle class and over and over again. 1012 01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:22,560 Speaker 22: How many times do we do this before. 1013 01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:22,760 Speaker 3: We learned this? 1014 01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:27,800 Speaker 20: Listen, I've honored you by allowing you to spout off here, 1015 01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:31,680 Speaker 20: and what you said was not right. That's all I'm saying. 1016 01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 20: I come from the lower middle class. Originally we didn't 1017 01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:38,840 Speaker 20: have anything, So don't spew that stuff on me. 1018 01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:41,240 Speaker 1: I get a little tired of that crap. 1019 01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:45,280 Speaker 20: And let me just say something. If you didn't, if 1020 01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:47,480 Speaker 20: we've worked together, we could pull this country out of 1021 01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:50,840 Speaker 20: every every message in and we could do a lot 1022 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:53,960 Speaker 20: of the things that you're talking about too. And I 1023 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:56,280 Speaker 20: think I've got a reputation of having worked together. 1024 01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:57,720 Speaker 3: Let's start with chip. 1025 01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:07,959 Speaker 1: Can you imagine any Democrat saying what Jack Kennedy said 1026 01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:10,440 Speaker 1: when he was touting his tax cut plan that went 1027 01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:14,600 Speaker 1: into effect after he was assassinated. The more money left 1028 01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:17,680 Speaker 1: into the pockets of people, the more they'll be able 1029 01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:24,520 Speaker 1: to spend, to save, or to invest, and eventually more 1030 01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:28,480 Speaker 1: money comes into the government. Can you imagine he sounds 1031 01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:31,840 Speaker 1: like Ronald Reagan. He sounds like a supply sier. Gona 1032 01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:41,160 Speaker 1: remind you of what Kennedy said. So again, for all 1033 01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:45,040 Speaker 1: of you out there who doubt what's gonna happen down 1034 01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:48,280 Speaker 1: the road, I'm telling you it's gonna be an economic 1035 01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:50,480 Speaker 1: boond the likes of which we have never seen, are 1036 01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:55,400 Speaker 1: never seen in a long time, leaving more money in 1037 01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:58,160 Speaker 1: the pockets of the American people, shrinking the size of 1038 01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:04,480 Speaker 1: government engaging in deregulation, figuring out something to do with 1039 01:03:04,520 --> 01:03:10,800 Speaker 1: that epic disaster known as Obamacare. That's, by the way, 1040 01:03:10,840 --> 01:03:13,920 Speaker 1: it's the biggest challenge because you have health the country 1041 01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:16,680 Speaker 1: believe in healthcare is a right, and nobody likes to 1042 01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:21,440 Speaker 1: watch people suffer, people who have health care, who are 1043 01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:28,040 Speaker 1: getting benefits from Obamacare taking things away from people. There's 1044 01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:30,240 Speaker 1: got to be a way of doing it over time, 1045 01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:33,560 Speaker 1: to get government out of the business of health care. 1046 01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:46,960 Speaker 1: It's a commodity like anything else. I'm Larry Elder Triple 1047 01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:49,600 Speaker 1: eight nine seven to one, s Age Triple eight nine 1048 01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:51,960 Speaker 1: seven one seven two four to three. I Am Larry Elder, 1049 01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:55,040 Speaker 1: Salem News Channel and the Larry Old Show, brought to 1050 01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:57,520 Speaker 1: you from the Relief Factor Studios. Don't forget your Relief 1051 01:03:57,520 --> 01:04:00,640 Speaker 1: Factor eight hundred for Relief eight hundred, the number relief 1052 01:04:00,680 --> 01:04:08,280 Speaker 1: Orliefactor dot com. That's Reliefactor dot Com number thirty nine. 1053 01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:12,600 Speaker 23: The worst deficit comes from a recession, and if we 1054 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:15,600 Speaker 23: can take the proper action in the proper time, this 1055 01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:18,240 Speaker 23: can be the most important step we could take to 1056 01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:22,600 Speaker 23: prevent another recession. That is the right kind of a 1057 01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:26,200 Speaker 23: tax cut both for your family budget and the national 1058 01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:32,000 Speaker 23: budget resulting from a permanent basic reform and reduction in 1059 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:37,640 Speaker 23: our rate structure, a creative tax cut creating more jobs, income, 1060 01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:41,800 Speaker 23: and eventually more revenue. And the right time for that 1061 01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:44,920 Speaker 23: kind of bill it now appears in the absence of 1062 01:04:44,920 --> 01:04:48,280 Speaker 23: an economic crisis today, and if the job is to 1063 01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:52,960 Speaker 23: be done in a responsible way, is January nineteen sixty three. 1064 01:04:53,720 --> 01:04:56,080 Speaker 23: Such a bill will be presented to the Congress for 1065 01:04:56,160 --> 01:04:59,919 Speaker 23: action next year. It will include and across the board, 1066 01:05:00,640 --> 01:05:04,920 Speaker 23: top to bottom cut in both corporate and personal income taxes. 1067 01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:09,720 Speaker 23: It will include long needed tax reforms that logic and 1068 01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:13,560 Speaker 23: equity demand, and it will date that cut in taxes 1069 01:05:13,960 --> 01:05:17,439 Speaker 23: to take effect as of the start of next year 1070 01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:21,960 Speaker 23: January nineteen sixty three. The billions of dollars this bill 1071 01:05:22,040 --> 01:05:24,840 Speaker 23: will placed in the hands of the consumer and our 1072 01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:29,480 Speaker 23: businessmen will have both immediate and permanent benefits to our economy. 1073 01:05:30,360 --> 01:05:34,560 Speaker 23: Every dollar released from taxation that is span or invested 1074 01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:37,480 Speaker 23: will help create a new job and a new salary, 1075 01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:40,960 Speaker 23: and these new jobs and new salaries can create other 1076 01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:45,160 Speaker 23: jobs and other salaries, and more customers and more growth 1077 01:05:45,600 --> 01:05:50,280 Speaker 23: for an expanding American economy. Instead of being permanently saddled 1078 01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:55,560 Speaker 23: with excess planned capacity, and the budgetary deficits that is 1079 01:05:55,600 --> 01:06:01,000 Speaker 23: created by this means our goal must be forward and 1080 01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:04,680 Speaker 23: full employment, and the budgetary surfaces that that kind of 1081 01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:06,480 Speaker 23: employment in capacity can produce. 1082 01:06:07,600 --> 01:06:11,320 Speaker 1: Today they'd call him a rich guy who really cares 1083 01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:17,040 Speaker 1: about the fellow rich. A tax cut creates more jobs, 1084 01:06:17,680 --> 01:06:21,280 Speaker 1: more income, eventually more revenue of the government. Say it 1085 01:06:21,320 --> 01:06:24,760 Speaker 1: ain't so. And then when Senator Obama was running for president, 1086 01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:29,560 Speaker 1: he promised to raise the capital gains tax. Historically, when 1087 01:06:29,560 --> 01:06:32,560 Speaker 1: you do that, you collect less revenue. When you lower it, 1088 01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:35,400 Speaker 1: you collect more revenue. And this is what Charlie Gibson, 1089 01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:40,520 Speaker 1: an ABC reporter, told the senator during their debate number forty. 1090 01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:43,160 Speaker 17: All right, you have, however, said you would favor an 1091 01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:45,919 Speaker 17: increase in the capital gains tax. As a matter of fact, 1092 01:06:45,920 --> 01:06:48,400 Speaker 17: you said on CNBC, and I quote, I certainly would 1093 01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:51,360 Speaker 17: not go above what existed under Bill Clinton, which was 1094 01:06:51,400 --> 01:06:53,960 Speaker 17: twenty eight percent. It's now fifteen percent. That's almost a 1095 01:06:53,960 --> 01:06:55,800 Speaker 17: doubling if you went to twenty eight percent. But actually 1096 01:06:55,800 --> 01:06:59,080 Speaker 17: Bill Clinton in nineteen ninety seven signed legislation that dropped 1097 01:06:59,120 --> 01:07:02,240 Speaker 17: the capital gains tax to twenty percent. And George Bush 1098 01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:04,600 Speaker 17: has taken it down to fifteen percent, and in each 1099 01:07:04,720 --> 01:07:09,040 Speaker 17: instance when the rate dropped, revenues from the tax increased, 1100 01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:13,440 Speaker 17: the government took in more money. And in the nineteen eighties, 1101 01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:16,560 Speaker 17: when the tax was increased to twenty eight percent, the 1102 01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:20,120 Speaker 17: revenues went down. So why raise it at all, especially 1103 01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:22,040 Speaker 17: given the fact that one hundred million people in this 1104 01:07:22,080 --> 01:07:24,320 Speaker 17: country own stock and would be affected. 1105 01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:26,439 Speaker 16: Well, Charlie, what I've said is that I would look 1106 01:07:26,520 --> 01:07:30,320 Speaker 16: at raising the capital gains tax for purposes of fairness. 1107 01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:32,200 Speaker 16: But what I also want to make sure is that 1108 01:07:32,280 --> 01:07:36,000 Speaker 16: our tax system is fair and that we are able 1109 01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:39,040 Speaker 16: to finance healthcare for Americans who currently don't have it, 1110 01:07:39,360 --> 01:07:41,800 Speaker 16: and that we're able to invest in our infrastructure and 1111 01:07:41,840 --> 01:07:43,000 Speaker 16: invest in our schools. 1112 01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:46,040 Speaker 17: That is irresponsible, but history shows that when you drop 1113 01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:47,880 Speaker 17: the capital gains tax, the revenues go up. 1114 01:07:47,960 --> 01:07:53,160 Speaker 16: Well, that might happen or it might not. It depends 1115 01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:56,000 Speaker 16: on what's happening on Wall Street and how business is 1116 01:07:56,040 --> 01:07:56,439 Speaker 16: going on. 1117 01:07:56,600 --> 01:07:59,240 Speaker 1: Did that make any sense at all to you? Was 1118 01:07:59,280 --> 01:08:03,120 Speaker 1: a matter of fairness. We need to fund healthcare, we 1119 01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:06,080 Speaker 1: need to fund things, So I'm going to raise the 1120 01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:08,720 Speaker 1: capital gains even though historically when that happens to get 1121 01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:12,200 Speaker 1: less money. Well, as a matter of fairness, we need 1122 01:08:12,240 --> 01:08:19,840 Speaker 1: money for health care. And listen to Senator Joe Biden 1123 01:08:19,960 --> 01:08:24,600 Speaker 1: admit that it is a bogus talking point. The Republicans 1124 01:08:24,680 --> 01:08:27,400 Speaker 1: want to do away with Medicare number forty one. 1125 01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:32,639 Speaker 24: Social securities automatically the public all through the thirties and forties, 1126 01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:37,760 Speaker 24: because during the thirties and forties the Republicans opposed it. 1127 01:08:37,760 --> 01:08:40,320 Speaker 24: It was easy to make the public believe when you'd 1128 01:08:40,320 --> 01:08:43,720 Speaker 24: stand there in nineteen seventy five and say, you know, 1129 01:08:43,880 --> 01:08:47,400 Speaker 24: if you elect that Republican, you're going to lose your 1130 01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:53,080 Speaker 24: social security, And some Democrats said that, and some of 1131 01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:56,000 Speaker 24: the Republicans they pointed to wereas committed to social security 1132 01:08:56,439 --> 01:09:01,479 Speaker 24: as any Democrat was. But because the Republican Party historically 1133 01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:04,280 Speaker 24: had been against those security it was an easy hit. 1134 01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:06,799 Speaker 3: It was a cheap shot, and it had. 1135 01:09:06,680 --> 01:09:07,880 Speaker 25: Some residents out there. 1136 01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:11,400 Speaker 24: Just like when I first got in politics, even though 1137 01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:14,000 Speaker 24: I come from this background and ran on a law 1138 01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:17,360 Speaker 24: and order platform. I remember the liberals used to say 1139 01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:21,400 Speaker 24: Biden is quote an iconoclast. That was when my newspaper 1140 01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:25,040 Speaker 24: called me an iconoclast, because how can he really be 1141 01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:27,960 Speaker 24: a progressive and want to lock these people up. I'm 1142 01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:31,080 Speaker 24: sure my friend from California gets hit with that all 1143 01:09:31,080 --> 01:09:33,680 Speaker 24: of how can you be a progressive and be so 1144 01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:43,479 Speaker 24: tough on crime? Well, I wasn't wedded to the notion. 1145 01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:46,280 Speaker 24: Every time Richard Nixon, when I was running in nineteen 1146 01:09:46,320 --> 01:09:50,400 Speaker 24: seventy two, would say law and order, the Democratic mantor 1147 01:09:50,439 --> 01:09:54,439 Speaker 24: in the response was law and order with justice whatever 1148 01:09:54,479 --> 01:10:03,280 Speaker 24: that meant, and I'd say, lock the SOB's up. Well, 1149 01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:07,960 Speaker 24: just as it is no longer legitimate to say the 1150 01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:12,520 Speaker 24: Republican Party is against, as a matter of course, social security, 1151 01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:16,840 Speaker 24: the Republicans are finding out it's no longer legitimate to 1152 01:10:16,880 --> 01:10:20,320 Speaker 24: say that Democrats are soft on crime, because guess what? 1153 01:10:20,320 --> 01:10:23,360 Speaker 24: What has every major crime bill that's gotten this far 1154 01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:26,479 Speaker 24: been a Democratic crime bill? 1155 01:10:28,600 --> 01:10:33,519 Speaker 2: A democratic crid built, that's the secret democratic crime bill. 1156 01:10:34,760 --> 01:10:36,480 Speaker 22: A democratic president. 1157 01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:41,120 Speaker 24: Wants one hundred thousand cops, a democratic president wants to 1158 01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:44,040 Speaker 24: build a one hundred and twenty five thousand new prison cells. 1159 01:10:44,520 --> 01:10:49,040 Speaker 3: That's the secret. Boy, is that bothers? 1160 01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:51,960 Speaker 1: Yes, you can see he has been whispering a long time. 1161 01:10:52,120 --> 01:10:54,559 Speaker 1: But the point of that clip is that he is 1162 01:10:54,600 --> 01:10:59,200 Speaker 1: admitting that even though Republicans no longer uphosed social security, 1163 01:10:59,240 --> 01:11:01,439 Speaker 1: no longer a pull medicare as it did at the 1164 01:11:01,520 --> 01:11:06,120 Speaker 1: very beginning. Democrats still accuse him of doing it, even 1165 01:11:06,160 --> 01:11:08,559 Speaker 1: though it's no longer the case, said Joe Biden candidly 1166 01:11:08,600 --> 01:11:15,599 Speaker 1: at that time when he was in the Senate. Now, 1167 01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:20,000 Speaker 1: Relief Factor loves hearing from pain free customers and hopes 1168 01:11:20,040 --> 01:11:23,280 Speaker 1: we can help you. Next, Bill writes, quote, I've been 1169 01:11:23,400 --> 01:11:27,280 Speaker 1: crawling under sinks and working long hours for decades. My 1170 01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:30,080 Speaker 1: back and knees took the punishment. I thought pain was 1171 01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:32,760 Speaker 1: just part of the trade, but Relief Factor surprised me. 1172 01:11:33,160 --> 01:11:36,160 Speaker 1: Within weeks, I was working without wincing. I could get 1173 01:11:36,200 --> 01:11:38,120 Speaker 1: down on the floor and get back up again without 1174 01:11:38,160 --> 01:11:42,920 Speaker 1: thinking twice. End of quote.

So two thirty the American people 1244 01:15:38,680 --> 01:15:40,920 Speaker 1: felt that were on the wrong track, which means that 1245 01:15:41,080 --> 01:15:43,840 Speaker 1: they were based on decisions that she and Biden collectively made. 1246 01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 1: Coming up invest in America.

Some years ago, my father, who is a montfred 1272 01:17:45,040 --> 01:17:49,600 Speaker 1: Point Marine, the first black Marines, Dana Robacher, congressman from California, 1273 01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:51,840 Speaker 1: ranged for him to have a ceremony to receive his 1274 01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:55,320 Speaker 1: Congressional Gold medal they had gotten posthumously. So they had 1275 01:17:55,320 --> 01:17:57,160 Speaker 1: this ceremony, by the way, you can watch it on YouTube, 1276 01:17:57,520 --> 01:18:00,320 Speaker 1: and all these beautiful young Marines and their dress lose 1277 01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:03,679 Speaker 1: were there putting on this ceremony. So we all had dinner, 1278 01:18:03,960 --> 01:18:07,000 Speaker 1: maybe twelve of them. I said, how many of you 1279 01:18:07,080 --> 01:18:10,479 Speaker 1: have money in the stock market? Nobody did, I said, 1280 01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:14,960 Speaker 1: you kidding me? Nobody did. I said, you obviously believe 1281 01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:17,559 Speaker 1: in the country, otherwise you wouldn't have volunteered, and yet 1282 01:18:17,600 --> 01:18:20,080 Speaker 1: you don't have money in the stock market. I said, 1283 01:18:20,080 --> 01:18:22,960 Speaker 1: take at least ten percent of every salary and put 1284 01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:24,760 Speaker 1: it in the stock market. I'll even give you a 1285 01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:26,840 Speaker 1: list of stocks to invest in. I gave them ten stocks, 1286 01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:29,719 Speaker 1: just growth stocks which pay dividends, told them to reinvest 1287 01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:32,960 Speaker 1: the dividends. I'm not sure how many did, but isn't 1288 01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:36,000 Speaker 1: that the case. Wouldn't you recommend that every young person 1289 01:18:36,560 --> 01:18:40,000 Speaker 1: get involved in America through the stock market. 1290 01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:44,920 Speaker 22: I mean, Larry, that's exactly what I say to the 1291 01:18:44,960 --> 01:18:47,360 Speaker 22: students that I lecture to at I do some guests 1292 01:18:47,439 --> 01:18:52,440 Speaker 22: lecturing at CBU Local College here and at Chapman University, 1293 01:18:52,920 --> 01:18:54,960 Speaker 22: and the first thing I do is I asked them 1294 01:18:55,000 --> 01:18:57,839 Speaker 22: how many people here have money in the markets? 1295 01:18:58,479 --> 01:18:58,719 Speaker 1: Now? 1296 01:18:58,880 --> 01:19:02,879 Speaker 22: These can be class is of the senior in college 1297 01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:08,160 Speaker 22: economics classes, and sometimes it's even MBA classes, and I'm 1298 01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:12,760 Speaker 22: amazed at the small percentage of people that actually raise 1299 01:19:12,800 --> 01:19:14,320 Speaker 22: their hand and say they have money in the market. 1300 01:19:14,680 --> 01:19:16,760 Speaker 22: Some of them have money in crypto now and they're 1301 01:19:16,760 --> 01:19:19,559 Speaker 22: playing that game. And that's fine, it's a way to 1302 01:19:19,600 --> 01:19:23,679 Speaker 22: get involved in it. But if you are not investing 1303 01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:28,000 Speaker 22: in the market, you are missing out on the greatest 1304 01:19:28,120 --> 01:19:32,639 Speaker 22: wealth creation tool that's ever been devised. Better than real estate, 1305 01:19:32,720 --> 01:19:36,120 Speaker 22: better than even having your own business, better than becoming 1306 01:19:36,160 --> 01:19:40,000 Speaker 22: an attorney or a doctor. There's nothing that replaces the 1307 01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:43,960 Speaker 22: stock markets returns. I mean, let's just look at it. 1308 01:19:44,040 --> 01:19:49,120 Speaker 22: Since two thousand and nine the begin right after the 1309 01:19:49,160 --> 01:19:52,120 Speaker 22: Great Financial Crisis. The S and P five hundred has 1310 01:19:52,120 --> 01:19:55,040 Speaker 22: a total return of nine hundred and thirty percent. Since then, 1311 01:19:56,200 --> 01:19:58,000 Speaker 22: where else are you going to get that return? 1312 01:20:00,680 --> 01:20:04,040 Speaker 1: President Trump gave a speech last night. Obviously it was 1313 01:20:04,080 --> 01:20:07,600 Speaker 1: focused on the economy and on affordability. How did he 1314 01:20:07,680 --> 01:20:10,680 Speaker 1: do and how would you grade his first ten months? 1315 01:20:12,439 --> 01:20:15,040 Speaker 22: I was I thought he was from just from a 1316 01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:17,760 Speaker 22: pure delivery standpoint. He was very a little bit and 1317 01:20:17,800 --> 01:20:20,840 Speaker 22: even more aggressive than he normally is, which is always 1318 01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:24,519 Speaker 22: pretty aggressive. Some people, I'm sure, didn't like that. I 1319 01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:27,600 Speaker 22: didn't mind it because I concentrated on the substance of 1320 01:20:27,720 --> 01:20:32,800 Speaker 22: what the man was saying. I am all for deregulation, 1321 01:20:34,080 --> 01:20:38,320 Speaker 22: lower taxes. The one big beautiful Bill had a lot 1322 01:20:38,400 --> 01:20:42,679 Speaker 22: of both of those, and that is when, in my opinion, 1323 01:20:42,760 --> 01:20:45,720 Speaker 22: is going to be a very good grower of the 1324 01:20:45,800 --> 01:20:50,320 Speaker 22: economy and bullish for the stock market. Now, the one 1325 01:20:50,320 --> 01:20:52,920 Speaker 22: thing that he is intent on doing that I am 1326 01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,960 Speaker 22: not a big huge fan of is the tariffs. I 1327 01:20:55,960 --> 01:20:58,400 Speaker 22: know you and I have talked about that before. We're 1328 01:20:58,439 --> 01:21:01,080 Speaker 22: both come from the school of of you know, of 1329 01:21:01,160 --> 01:21:05,400 Speaker 22: Adam Smith and the free market economists that tell us 1330 01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:08,840 Speaker 22: that you'ren't even even having any trayoffs at all, even 1331 01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:12,520 Speaker 22: if they're just even if they're not reciprocal, not just unilateral, 1332 01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:14,479 Speaker 22: is not a good idea. It's back to our benefit 1333 01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:17,160 Speaker 22: if we don't have terriffs, and I actually think that's true. 1334 01:21:18,240 --> 01:21:21,720 Speaker 22: But so far, at least, we haven't seen a big 1335 01:21:21,800 --> 01:21:25,760 Speaker 22: huge rise in inflation due to tariff. So h now 1336 01:21:25,760 --> 01:21:28,360 Speaker 22: that may change in the months ahead. We'll see if 1337 01:21:28,400 --> 01:21:30,559 Speaker 22: that happens. I'll be watching it on a on a 1338 01:21:30,600 --> 01:21:34,040 Speaker 22: regular basis. But just this morning we got CPI report 1339 01:21:34,080 --> 01:21:37,800 Speaker 22: from last month that was cooler than expected, and that 1340 01:21:38,040 --> 01:21:41,360 Speaker 22: is a bullish thing because that'll allow the Federal Reserve 1341 01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:46,280 Speaker 22: to continue cutting rates next year and beyond. And President 1342 01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:48,880 Speaker 22: Trump even in his speech last night, was talking about 1343 01:21:48,920 --> 01:21:51,960 Speaker 22: the FED, the FED and how he's planning on putting 1344 01:21:52,560 --> 01:21:55,479 Speaker 22: a new person in there that is much more dubbish 1345 01:21:55,560 --> 01:21:58,400 Speaker 22: as we call it in the in the business, which 1346 01:21:58,439 --> 01:22:02,040 Speaker 22: means they're more likely to to cut interest rates. So 1347 01:22:02,120 --> 01:22:05,160 Speaker 22: there's a lot of confluence of positives, and most of 1348 01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:08,360 Speaker 22: it is actually independent of what the government is doing. 1349 01:22:08,720 --> 01:22:11,479 Speaker 22: I mean, you could have a compliant government that's more 1350 01:22:12,680 --> 01:22:15,679 Speaker 22: that's more friendly to business like this government is versus 1351 01:22:15,760 --> 01:22:19,519 Speaker 22: the last government. But in the end, it's all about 1352 01:22:19,600 --> 01:22:23,400 Speaker 22: human action. We all make choices, we all have scarcity, 1353 01:22:23,439 --> 01:22:26,719 Speaker 22: we all have to deal with buying and selling things, 1354 01:22:26,800 --> 01:22:29,040 Speaker 22: and companies have to grow their bottom line. How do 1355 01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:31,599 Speaker 22: they do that. They build a better mouse trap, they 1356 01:22:31,600 --> 01:22:35,759 Speaker 22: get better financing, they make things that are more efficient. 1357 01:22:36,160 --> 01:22:39,760 Speaker 22: That's the whole promise of the AI situation. So, I 1358 01:22:39,800 --> 01:22:45,160 Speaker 22: mean there's a lot of positives ahead. I mean people think, oh, 1359 01:22:45,240 --> 01:22:48,559 Speaker 22: with the economies. But from a market perspective, the SMP's 1360 01:22:48,640 --> 01:22:51,280 Speaker 22: up seventeen percent on a total return basis year to date, 1361 01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:53,600 Speaker 22: and that's just the S and P five hundred. The 1362 01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:56,719 Speaker 22: stocks that we have in our portfolio are up forty 1363 01:22:57,080 --> 01:23:00,720 Speaker 22: forty five, one hundred and forty five percent. So you know, 1364 01:23:01,600 --> 01:23:03,200 Speaker 22: if you're looking the way I see it too, is 1365 01:23:03,240 --> 01:23:08,160 Speaker 22: if you're looking for the government to cure your affordability issues, 1366 01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:11,840 Speaker 22: you're basically waiting for GOODO. Okay, it's not going to happen. 1367 01:23:11,920 --> 01:23:14,800 Speaker 22: You need to take your own action by investing, by 1368 01:23:14,960 --> 01:23:18,760 Speaker 22: learning skills that the market will pay for, and by 1369 01:23:19,240 --> 01:23:21,799 Speaker 22: you know, not waiting for someone to fix your problems. 1370 01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:24,880 Speaker 22: This is this is America. We can fix our own 1371 01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:28,200 Speaker 22: problems and if we're given the freedom, like we are 1372 01:23:28,240 --> 01:23:31,840 Speaker 22: giving more and more freedom now, it's not it's the 1373 01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:33,120 Speaker 22: problem is very solvable. 1374 01:23:33,880 --> 01:23:36,879 Speaker 1: My guest is Jim Woods. He's editor and investment director 1375 01:23:36,920 --> 01:23:39,080 Speaker 1: of Investing Edge. If you want to see our seminar, 1376 01:23:39,439 --> 01:23:43,400 Speaker 1: go to Larryeldercan dot com. That's Larryeldercan dot com. I 1377 01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:46,120 Speaker 1: should mention that there's an independent form of firm that 1378 01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:52,320 Speaker 1: ranks investment advisors. His rank is number one financial blogger 1379 01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:55,960 Speaker 1: in the world out of more than six thousand competing analysts, 1380 01:23:56,439 --> 01:23:59,360 Speaker 1: and have been ranked top twelve globally for more than 1381 01:23:59,400 --> 01:24:03,000 Speaker 1: a decade, so that's a pretty impressive record. Jim, are 1382 01:24:03,040 --> 01:24:06,040 Speaker 1: we in a quote unquote affordability crisis? 1383 01:24:07,080 --> 01:24:09,240 Speaker 22: I mean, I don't think so unless you're at the 1384 01:24:09,360 --> 01:24:14,840 Speaker 22: very bottom quintile of income earners, and then you're always 1385 01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:18,400 Speaker 22: in an affordability crisis, and badly. I mean, if if 1386 01:24:18,439 --> 01:24:21,320 Speaker 22: you can't make more than minimum wage or or you're 1387 01:24:21,479 --> 01:24:24,280 Speaker 22: living on substandard wage, you know you're always going to 1388 01:24:24,280 --> 01:24:28,559 Speaker 22: have a struggle finding dealing with life. But if you 1389 01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:30,680 Speaker 22: look at the there's really there's been a lot of 1390 01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:35,760 Speaker 22: polls recently where it shows that people that have money 1391 01:24:35,800 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 22: in the stock market are far less worried about daily 1392 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:43,600 Speaker 22: costs of living. Why because they know their money is 1393 01:24:43,680 --> 01:24:46,479 Speaker 22: growing at a rate that is going to more than 1394 01:24:46,520 --> 01:24:50,720 Speaker 22: makeup for the rate for the higher costs that they 1395 01:24:50,760 --> 01:24:53,440 Speaker 22: have to pay out of pocket. Now, I'm not discounting 1396 01:24:53,520 --> 01:24:56,040 Speaker 22: the fact that eggs are higher in price, although they 1397 01:24:56,080 --> 01:24:58,920 Speaker 22: come back down, and that we had these eight percent 1398 01:24:58,960 --> 01:25:01,599 Speaker 22: inflation during the BUI. In years now we have two 1399 01:25:01,600 --> 01:25:04,720 Speaker 22: point seven percent inflation, so things are improving, but we 1400 01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:07,120 Speaker 22: still have a little bit of inflation. So it's not 1401 01:25:07,160 --> 01:25:09,760 Speaker 22: like I'm saying, I'm not just counting the fact that 1402 01:25:09,840 --> 01:25:12,040 Speaker 22: people have to pay more. I mean, I'm paying more 1403 01:25:12,080 --> 01:25:14,920 Speaker 22: for meat, I'm paying more for coffee, I'm paying more 1404 01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:18,320 Speaker 22: for wine, I'm paying more for Swiss watches, all the 1405 01:25:18,360 --> 01:25:20,760 Speaker 22: things I love in life, Larry, I'm paying more for. 1406 01:25:21,040 --> 01:25:25,520 Speaker 22: But guess what, my stock market portfolio is also a huge. 1407 01:25:26,120 --> 01:25:29,639 Speaker 1: What is your reaction when President Trump touts the stock 1408 01:25:29,680 --> 01:25:33,639 Speaker 1: market that Al Jones the S and P going up Nasdaq, 1409 01:25:34,160 --> 01:25:36,400 Speaker 1: and then the retort is, well, only rich people have 1410 01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:38,519 Speaker 1: money in the stock market. You have about forty five 1411 01:25:38,520 --> 01:25:39,439 Speaker 1: seconds to respond to that. 1412 01:25:40,200 --> 01:25:43,400 Speaker 22: Yeah, Well, first of all, that's inaccurate because most people 1413 01:25:43,479 --> 01:25:47,040 Speaker 22: that have a job and that are in the marketplace 1414 01:25:47,320 --> 01:25:49,840 Speaker 22: have four to oh one K money or some kind 1415 01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:53,040 Speaker 22: of IRA. So we all are participating in the markets. 1416 01:25:53,240 --> 01:25:55,040 Speaker 22: I mean even if you unless you're at the very 1417 01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:58,400 Speaker 22: bottom rung as I said, So that's not true in 1418 01:25:58,439 --> 01:26:01,960 Speaker 22: the first place. And secondly, the stock markets growth benefits 1419 01:26:02,040 --> 01:26:04,439 Speaker 22: the entire economy. I don't care if you don't have 1420 01:26:04,479 --> 01:26:07,920 Speaker 22: any stocks. If Walmart's doing well on their bottom line 1421 01:26:07,960 --> 01:26:11,080 Speaker 22: and their stocks going up, you're gonna benefit because you 1422 01:26:11,120 --> 01:26:14,200 Speaker 22: get to get you get the benefit of that kind 1423 01:26:14,200 --> 01:26:19,439 Speaker 22: of corporate growth dividend. And so it's all about everyone 1424 01:26:19,560 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 22: doing well. And it's just a class warfare thing when. 1425 01:26:21,960 --> 01:26:24,000 Speaker 1: People say that, I'm talking to the number one financial 1426 01:26:24,040 --> 01:26:26,080 Speaker 1: blogger in the world, Jim Wood.

We wrapped twelve 1432 01:26:45,600 --> 01:26:49,720 Speaker 9: different bills up into one beautiful bill that includes no 1433 01:26:49,840 --> 01:26:53,320 Speaker 9: tax on tips, no tax on overtime, and no tax 1434 01:26:53,439 --> 01:26:58,400 Speaker 9: on Social Security for our great seniors.

Now 1505 01:30:33,400 --> 01:30:35,559 Speaker 22: you don't have to buy every one of those stocks. 1506 01:30:36,080 --> 01:30:40,840 Speaker 22: You can buy a basic NASDAQ one hundred fund through 1507 01:30:41,200 --> 01:30:44,920 Speaker 22: an exchange traded fund. You go to Robinhood, you open 1508 01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:47,280 Speaker 22: up an account with one hundred dollars, You put that 1509 01:30:47,400 --> 01:30:49,680 Speaker 22: money in, and then you keep putting a little bit 1510 01:30:49,760 --> 01:30:53,439 Speaker 22: money of money in as you can afford it, and 1511 01:30:53,479 --> 01:30:56,120 Speaker 22: before you know it, you have money. Now, if you're 1512 01:30:56,439 --> 01:30:59,880 Speaker 22: someone who's not in a position at all to earn 1513 01:31:00,120 --> 01:31:04,000 Speaker 22: enough money to put money in the market, then the 1514 01:31:04,040 --> 01:31:07,920 Speaker 22: best her best revenge is to get more skills and 1515 01:31:08,040 --> 01:31:11,080 Speaker 22: to work harder, start your own business, do something to 1516 01:31:11,240 --> 01:31:14,679 Speaker 22: right your ship. Because if you're waiting for President Trump 1517 01:31:14,720 --> 01:31:17,320 Speaker 22: to do it, or if you're waiting for President Vance 1518 01:31:17,400 --> 01:31:19,920 Speaker 22: to do it, or if you're waiting for anybody in 1519 01:31:19,960 --> 01:31:23,840 Speaker 22: the White House to fix your problems you're in trouble, or. 1520 01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:26,320 Speaker 1: I would also add this to Jim, to organize your life. 1521 01:31:26,400 --> 01:31:31,639 Speaker 1: I remember reading that parents who homeschool their kids don't 1522 01:31:31,680 --> 01:31:34,360 Speaker 1: have any more money than those who don't. They just 1523 01:31:34,520 --> 01:31:38,760 Speaker 1: live lower, have refused to take vacations, kept their car 1524 01:31:38,880 --> 01:31:41,320 Speaker 1: two or three years longer, adjusted their life that they 1525 01:31:41,360 --> 01:31:44,400 Speaker 1: could afford to stay home so they could homeschool their kids. 1526 01:31:44,439 --> 01:31:45,920 Speaker 1: These are choices that we can make. 1527 01:31:47,160 --> 01:31:51,360 Speaker 22: Exactly, Larry. I mean, look, everybody wants everything right now. 1528 01:31:52,000 --> 01:31:54,880 Speaker 22: Kids get out of college right now. They want to 1529 01:31:54,880 --> 01:31:59,040 Speaker 22: be the CEO, okay, but they don't have any job experience. 1530 01:31:59,680 --> 01:31:59,840 Speaker 24: Now. 1531 01:32:00,560 --> 01:32:02,680 Speaker 22: I know when you and I were growing up, we 1532 01:32:02,680 --> 01:32:04,920 Speaker 22: were like, Okay, I need to get an education. I 1533 01:32:04,920 --> 01:32:06,760 Speaker 22: need to go to graduate school. I need to learn 1534 01:32:06,800 --> 01:32:09,080 Speaker 22: a skill that somebody is willing to compensate me for, 1535 01:32:09,520 --> 01:32:12,960 Speaker 22: and that is how I'm going to become successful. So 1536 01:32:13,000 --> 01:32:16,400 Speaker 22: that's what we did. We didn't just sit around saying, oh, 1537 01:32:16,640 --> 01:32:19,600 Speaker 22: you know, we need some subsidies for our healthcare. No, 1538 01:32:20,800 --> 01:32:23,240 Speaker 22: go out and make our own subsidies. Now, I know 1539 01:32:23,320 --> 01:32:26,440 Speaker 22: that that's easier said than done, and I'm not discounting 1540 01:32:26,439 --> 01:32:30,000 Speaker 22: the difficulty in life, but we all face these difficulties 1541 01:32:30,000 --> 01:32:34,720 Speaker 22: in life, and they're very surmountable if you have the 1542 01:32:34,760 --> 01:32:36,920 Speaker 22: grit to do it. I mean, look at your father. 1543 01:32:37,720 --> 01:32:39,400 Speaker 22: I mean, your father is a perfect example of a 1544 01:32:39,439 --> 01:32:43,880 Speaker 22: man like with a will of stone and did all 1545 01:32:43,920 --> 01:32:46,719 Speaker 22: the right things in life. And look what he looked. 1546 01:32:46,800 --> 01:32:47,960 Speaker 22: Look how his life turned out. 1547 01:32:49,080 --> 01:32:51,400 Speaker 1: Ronald, is it Kenoga Park? Ronald? You're on with Jim 1548 01:32:51,439 --> 01:32:53,120 Speaker 1: Woods and Larry. 1549 01:32:53,960 --> 01:32:57,120 Speaker 30: Hello, mister Woods. Larry's good to hear you you too. 1550 01:32:57,680 --> 01:33:00,960 Speaker 30: The question I had was, I don't see just the 1551 01:33:01,160 --> 01:33:06,559 Speaker 30: economy really being able to produce jobs on any massive skill. 1552 01:33:07,360 --> 01:33:09,360 Speaker 30: Every time you read the Wall Street Jail there you 1553 01:33:09,439 --> 01:33:15,240 Speaker 30: hear of major IT companies laying off people being able to. 1554 01:33:15,200 --> 01:33:16,680 Speaker 29: Do more with less. 1555 01:33:17,120 --> 01:33:21,080 Speaker 1: Any comment on that, it's it's a great question. And 1556 01:33:21,520 --> 01:33:24,679 Speaker 1: essentially what he's saying is I think unemployment got to 1557 01:33:24,720 --> 01:33:28,679 Speaker 1: four point six or four point seven recently. Is AI 1558 01:33:28,800 --> 01:33:31,280 Speaker 1: going to destroy jobs in the future or in the 1559 01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:33,679 Speaker 1: short term, will to destroy some jobs in the long term, 1560 01:33:33,880 --> 01:33:35,559 Speaker 1: will to make more job than it destroys? 1561 01:33:37,520 --> 01:33:39,600 Speaker 22: I think, I mean, it's a very good question, and 1562 01:33:39,720 --> 01:33:44,120 Speaker 22: I the labor market is the one area of the 1563 01:33:44,160 --> 01:33:49,120 Speaker 22: economy that has not kicked in into high gear as 1564 01:33:49,120 --> 01:33:51,800 Speaker 22: it were There's a lot of reasons for that. I mean, 1565 01:33:51,840 --> 01:33:55,000 Speaker 22: part of it is after the pandemic there was a 1566 01:33:55,040 --> 01:33:59,479 Speaker 22: lot of job growth, and that's cool down now companies 1567 01:33:59,520 --> 01:34:02,080 Speaker 22: going to staff up to get ready for the rebound. 1568 01:34:02,160 --> 01:34:04,679 Speaker 22: They did that and now they're seeing Now we're seeing 1569 01:34:04,680 --> 01:34:07,960 Speaker 22: that you know, maybe we over hired a little bit 1570 01:34:08,040 --> 01:34:11,760 Speaker 22: during that time period, so there has been job contraction. 1571 01:34:12,840 --> 01:34:17,960 Speaker 22: It's a real thing, and the AI situation, a lot 1572 01:34:18,000 --> 01:34:21,280 Speaker 22: of people are worried about it in an existential threat 1573 01:34:21,320 --> 01:34:23,920 Speaker 22: to humanity, that kind of thing. I don't think that 1574 01:34:24,040 --> 01:34:28,240 Speaker 22: is accurate. I think that's overblown and hyperbole. But in 1575 01:34:28,280 --> 01:34:33,960 Speaker 22: the short run, just like every other major change in 1576 01:34:34,000 --> 01:34:38,200 Speaker 22: the economy or disruptive technology, you are always going to 1577 01:34:38,280 --> 01:34:41,920 Speaker 22: have some people that win and some people that lose. 1578 01:34:42,240 --> 01:34:46,320 Speaker 22: And it's very difficult to do anything about that because 1579 01:34:46,320 --> 01:34:49,200 Speaker 22: that's the way the world is now. The only your 1580 01:34:49,240 --> 01:34:51,760 Speaker 22: only revenge is to keep up with different skills and that, 1581 01:34:51,840 --> 01:34:53,400 Speaker 22: like I said, that's easier said than done. 1582 01:34:53,400 --> 01:34:56,479 Speaker 1: As well. To view the investment summit, Jim and I 1583 01:34:56,520 --> 01:35:01,000 Speaker 1: did go to Larryeldercan dot com.

Dan, you're on with Jim Woods and 1595 01:35:37,240 --> 01:35:39,240 Speaker 1: Larry Hi. 1596 01:35:39,400 --> 01:35:41,280 Speaker 12: Jim Hi, Larry Dan, how are. 1597 01:35:41,200 --> 01:35:44,240 Speaker 27: You going back to the great great great Hey, going 1598 01:35:44,320 --> 01:35:47,400 Speaker 27: back to the part where you said tariffs, we shouldn't 1599 01:35:47,479 --> 01:35:51,200 Speaker 27: charge him. It seems like it works out really good 1600 01:35:51,200 --> 01:35:56,000 Speaker 27: for all these other countries to charge us for tariffs. 1601 01:35:56,040 --> 01:35:57,439 Speaker 1: Correct, Jim, what about that? 1602 01:35:58,560 --> 01:35:59,320 Speaker 3: Yeah? I did. 1603 01:35:59,479 --> 01:36:02,479 Speaker 22: I don't think that that's true for one. And the 1604 01:36:02,479 --> 01:36:04,240 Speaker 22: way I see it is, if the country wants to 1605 01:36:04,240 --> 01:36:08,920 Speaker 22: punish their own citizens doing tariffs on their own citizens, 1606 01:36:09,560 --> 01:36:12,840 Speaker 22: that's their prerogative. But I would not rather not be 1607 01:36:12,920 --> 01:36:17,439 Speaker 22: punished here for my own economic choices. Think of it 1608 01:36:17,520 --> 01:36:21,920 Speaker 22: like that. I mean, when any government, not just President Trump, 1609 01:36:21,920 --> 01:36:25,519 Speaker 22: but anyone who imposes tariffs. It's historically been the case 1610 01:36:26,760 --> 01:36:30,120 Speaker 22: is tariffs are attacks on individuals or at tax on 1611 01:36:30,200 --> 01:36:33,960 Speaker 22: the importers. So we're not bringing in money from other countries. 1612 01:36:34,280 --> 01:36:38,679 Speaker 22: The tariffs are paid by American producers for the privilege 1613 01:36:38,680 --> 01:36:42,240 Speaker 22: of bringing things into the country. So I think it's 1614 01:36:42,320 --> 01:36:45,000 Speaker 22: a violation of rights to have to put to be 1615 01:36:45,080 --> 01:36:48,960 Speaker 22: punished for that purpose. So that's why I'm opposed to it. Now, 1616 01:36:49,360 --> 01:36:52,960 Speaker 22: whether the economic situation is going to be harmed in 1617 01:36:53,000 --> 01:36:56,800 Speaker 22: a great extent, that's what that remains to be seen. 1618 01:36:57,280 --> 01:37:00,200 Speaker 22: I don't think history is in favor of tariffs, but 1619 01:37:00,360 --> 01:37:04,759 Speaker 22: also histories is in favor of deregulation and taxes spurring 1620 01:37:04,760 --> 01:37:07,880 Speaker 22: the economy. So perhaps that will, you know, balance things out. 1621 01:37:07,920 --> 01:37:09,000 Speaker 22: I'm hoping that's the case. 1622 01:37:09,479 --> 01:37:11,280 Speaker 1: Mark is in Granada Hills and Mark, you're on with 1623 01:37:11,320 --> 01:37:12,240 Speaker 1: Jim Woods and Larry. 1624 01:37:13,960 --> 01:37:14,280 Speaker 31: Hello. 1625 01:37:14,560 --> 01:37:14,920 Speaker 10: Hey. 1626 01:37:15,280 --> 01:37:19,840 Speaker 31: Earlier in the show, Larry, you said that inflation should 1627 01:37:20,160 --> 01:37:24,160 Speaker 31: be there should be no inflation, it should be zero, 1628 01:37:24,400 --> 01:37:27,719 Speaker 31: and yeah, it should be zero. And then I've heard 1629 01:37:27,800 --> 01:37:31,960 Speaker 31: from you know, over last in administrations are five that 1630 01:37:32,400 --> 01:37:33,799 Speaker 31: it should be two and a half percent. 1631 01:37:33,960 --> 01:37:37,080 Speaker 1: So what's the story, Jim, you take that one you know, 1632 01:37:37,080 --> 01:37:39,360 Speaker 1: when I studied economics one O one, I always heard 1633 01:37:39,360 --> 01:37:42,840 Speaker 1: the ideal inflation was zero points zero zero. But we 1634 01:37:43,000 --> 01:37:44,760 Speaker 1: have we have now gotten used to the idea that 1635 01:37:44,800 --> 01:37:45,719 Speaker 1: it should be two percent. 1636 01:37:45,840 --> 01:37:48,679 Speaker 22: What is your take, Yeah, yeah, I mean the FEDS 1637 01:37:48,800 --> 01:37:52,880 Speaker 22: target inflation rate is two percent, so it's actually a 1638 01:37:52,880 --> 01:37:56,360 Speaker 22: matter of official central bank policy that they want to 1639 01:37:56,400 --> 01:38:01,120 Speaker 22: see inflation surge. Now, ideal these zero percent would be best. 1640 01:38:01,160 --> 01:38:05,559 Speaker 22: Now a contraction, though, a deflationary environment would not be 1641 01:38:05,680 --> 01:38:09,559 Speaker 22: good because that means there's no growth. So the mod 1642 01:38:09,680 --> 01:38:14,519 Speaker 22: in modern economics, which has a lot of problems, but 1643 01:38:14,600 --> 01:38:16,880 Speaker 22: the theory at least is that you are going to 1644 01:38:16,960 --> 01:38:19,880 Speaker 22: grow the economy, you have to inflate the economy is 1645 01:38:19,920 --> 01:38:24,360 Speaker 22: a little bit in order for economic growth to continue. 1646 01:38:24,400 --> 01:38:26,000 Speaker 22: So it's a trade off. You're going to pay more 1647 01:38:26,000 --> 01:38:28,360 Speaker 22: on prices, but the growth is going to be higher. Now, 1648 01:38:28,479 --> 01:38:31,000 Speaker 22: if we have two percent inflation, four or five six 1649 01:38:31,040 --> 01:38:35,240 Speaker 22: percent economic growth, that's a dream scenario right there. I 1650 01:38:35,240 --> 01:38:35,840 Speaker 22: can live with that. 1651 01:38:37,000 --> 01:38:39,160 Speaker 1: Victor is in Princeton, New Jersey. Victory. You're home with 1652 01:38:39,200 --> 01:38:40,120 Speaker 1: Jim Woods and Larry. 1653 01:38:41,520 --> 01:38:44,080 Speaker 26: Thank you Larry for taking m calls. Lcome to your guests. 1654 01:38:44,360 --> 01:38:48,519 Speaker 26: Quick question, right, quick mentioned something about the labor about 1655 01:38:48,520 --> 01:38:53,680 Speaker 26: the labor force growing. Don't I think going to be 1656 01:38:53,960 --> 01:38:58,360 Speaker 26: in trouble with the labor force growing? Don't you think 1657 01:38:58,360 --> 01:39:01,559 Speaker 26: the twelve or fifteen million illegal migrants to come in 1658 01:39:01,560 --> 01:39:07,040 Speaker 26: that we're paying on such lower scale that our labor 1659 01:39:07,400 --> 01:39:09,360 Speaker 26: labor force is not going to be able to grow 1660 01:39:09,400 --> 01:39:13,599 Speaker 26: until we get a large amount of those people out 1661 01:39:14,560 --> 01:39:16,839 Speaker 26: so our labor force can grow in other areas. 1662 01:39:17,360 --> 01:39:19,320 Speaker 1: Jim, what's your take on that? As you know, over 1663 01:39:19,360 --> 01:39:22,280 Speaker 1: the last four years, Trump put the number at twenty million. 1664 01:39:22,640 --> 01:39:24,640 Speaker 1: That's the highest number I've heard anybody put it at. 1665 01:39:24,680 --> 01:39:27,439 Speaker 1: Most people say twelve to fifteen million illegal aliens came 1666 01:39:27,479 --> 01:39:30,720 Speaker 1: in the four years under under Biden. But isn't that 1667 01:39:30,760 --> 01:39:33,760 Speaker 1: a net drain on our economy? 1668 01:39:34,640 --> 01:39:37,360 Speaker 22: Well, I'm going to go back to my free market 1669 01:39:37,439 --> 01:39:41,760 Speaker 22: roots here, Larry and argue in favor of immigration being 1670 01:39:41,760 --> 01:39:45,799 Speaker 22: a net positive for you if it's legal. If it's legal, 1671 01:39:45,920 --> 01:39:49,760 Speaker 22: I mean even now, I'm not for this, but even 1672 01:39:49,800 --> 01:39:53,519 Speaker 22: if it is illegal, you are still paying for a service. 1673 01:39:53,840 --> 01:39:58,160 Speaker 22: An employer, an agriculture company is still paying money to 1674 01:39:58,320 --> 01:40:01,320 Speaker 22: people to harvest their to get those crops to the 1675 01:40:01,360 --> 01:40:04,360 Speaker 22: market so that you and I can buy tomatoes. So 1676 01:40:05,040 --> 01:40:07,439 Speaker 22: there's there's a positive element to that. It is a 1677 01:40:07,479 --> 01:40:08,799 Speaker 22: positive from that respect. 1678 01:40:08,920 --> 01:40:13,080 Speaker 1: Now, but Milton Freeman and you and I are both doublets. 1679 01:40:13,080 --> 01:40:15,960 Speaker 1: And Milton Freeman he said, you can't have open borders 1680 01:40:16,000 --> 01:40:18,680 Speaker 1: and a welfare state. We have a welfare. 1681 01:40:18,280 --> 01:40:22,200 Speaker 22: State, And yeah, that's exactly right there. The welfare state 1682 01:40:22,280 --> 01:40:25,639 Speaker 22: is the problem. It's always the welfare state that's the problem. 1683 01:40:25,800 --> 01:40:30,080 Speaker 22: It's just like just like all big government booms and 1684 01:40:30,080 --> 01:40:34,640 Speaker 22: busts is always created by government. Yeah, we get rid 1685 01:40:34,680 --> 01:40:38,719 Speaker 22: of the welfare state. I'm all for open borders again. 1686 01:40:38,720 --> 01:40:40,920 Speaker 1: If you want to watch our investment summit, go to 1687 01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:44,680 Speaker 1: Larryeldercan dot com the Larryeldercan dot com. The theme is 1688 01:40:45,040 --> 01:40:50,040 Speaker 1: American Now. Cole comes swiftly to Ukraine, and for elderly 1689 01:40:50,120 --> 01:40:53,080 Speaker 1: Jews like Olga, it can be deadly. Olga is seventy 1690 01:40:53,160 --> 01:40:55,280 Speaker 1: nine years old. She lives in a small village where 1691 01:40:55,280 --> 01:40:58,479 Speaker 1: there's no indoor plumbing, no bathroom, no reliable access to heating. 1692 01:40:58,880 --> 01:41:01,599 Speaker 1: Each day she must pump water from a well, even 1693 01:41:01,640 --> 01:41:04,320 Speaker 1: in sub zero temperatures to lose the rest To use 1694 01:41:04,360 --> 01:41:06,640 Speaker 1: the restrooms, you must walk through the bitter cold to 1695 01:41:06,720 --> 01:41:10,800 Speaker 1: reach an outhouse. Her meager pension is not enough to 1696 01:41:10,800 --> 01:41:14,559 Speaker 1: cover food, medicine, and heat. Poverty threatens to consume her life. 1697 01:41:14,640 --> 01:41:18,639 Speaker 1: But when all seemed lost, Olga received a nourishing food box, 1698 01:41:19,040 --> 01:41:22,240 Speaker 1: emergency of lighting, and a warm blanket. The aid is 1699 01:41:22,280 --> 01:41:25,200 Speaker 1: a life saving gift for someone like Olga. The visit 1700 01:41:25,240 --> 01:41:28,559 Speaker 1: from Fellowship staff lifted her spirits and reminded her she 1701 01:41:29,120 --> 01:41:33,120 Speaker 1: is not forgotten. Today, thousands of elderly Jews across Ukraine 1702 01:41:33,240 --> 01:41:36,599 Speaker 1: and the former Soviet Union faced similar struggles. Their homes 1703 01:41:36,640 --> 01:41:39,960 Speaker 1: are fragile against the cold, their resources are scarce, and 1704 01:41:40,000 --> 01:41:42,439 Speaker 1: their health is fragile. For them, winter is not just 1705 01:41:42,479 --> 01:41:48,160 Speaker 1: a season. URGENTIFCJ dot org. URGENTIFCJ dot org. 1706 01:41:58,439 --> 01:42:02,160 Speaker 9: We are now seeing reverse migration as migrants go back home, 1707 01:42:02,560 --> 01:42:06,360 Speaker 9: leaving more housing and more jobs for Americans. In the 1708 01:42:06,439 --> 01:42:10,600 Speaker 9: year before my election, all net creation of jobs was 1709 01:42:10,720 --> 01:42:15,439 Speaker 9: going to foreign migrants. Since I took office, one hundred 1710 01:42:15,520 --> 01:42:20,560 Speaker 9: percent of all net job creation has gone to American 1711 01:42:20,960 --> 01:42:23,839 Speaker 9: born citizens one hundred percent. 1712 01:42:24,640 --> 01:42:26,840 Speaker 3: In the end, government either. 1713 01:42:26,680 --> 01:42:31,320 Speaker 9: Serves the productive, patriotic, hardworking American citizen, or it serves 1714 01:42:31,360 --> 01:42:35,200 Speaker 9: those who break the laws, cheat the system, and seek 1715 01:42:35,240 --> 01:42:38,720 Speaker 9: power and profit at the expense of our nation. 1716 01:42:40,160 --> 01:42:43,360 Speaker 1: Triple eight nine seven one Sage Triple eight nine seven 1717 01:42:43,439 --> 01:42:46,040 Speaker 1: one seven two four to three.

And since you told me 1727 01:43:14,479 --> 01:43:15,640 Speaker 1: about that, I've been looking at it. 1728 01:43:15,640 --> 01:43:20,320 Speaker 22: It's gone crazy, up one hundred and forty five percent 1729 01:43:20,400 --> 01:43:21,559 Speaker 22: since the beginning of the year. 1730 01:43:21,640 --> 01:43:21,960 Speaker 10: Larry. 1731 01:43:22,080 --> 01:43:26,760 Speaker 22: That's uh, that's it's basically the best performing stock at 1732 01:43:26,800 --> 01:43:29,240 Speaker 22: the S and P five hundred this year, one of 1733 01:43:29,280 --> 01:43:33,120 Speaker 22: the best performers. And I'm very bullish on this company 1734 01:43:33,160 --> 01:43:36,639 Speaker 22: because it's got a confluence of positives.

What kind of stock is it? 1743 01:44:04,000 --> 01:44:08,200 Speaker 22: It's a software stock. Some call it a cybersecurity stock, 1744 01:44:08,280 --> 01:44:13,960 Speaker 22: but it's much more than that. It's an information tool. 1745 01:44:14,520 --> 01:44:18,200 Speaker 22: The software is used by all kinds of different entities, 1746 01:44:18,200 --> 01:44:23,400 Speaker 22: including governments. Now they won't admit this, but the software 1747 01:44:23,680 --> 01:44:26,759 Speaker 22: that was used, the big data software that was used 1748 01:44:27,080 --> 01:44:30,040 Speaker 22: to pinpoint where Osama bin Laden was so that we 1749 01:44:30,400 --> 01:44:33,240 Speaker 22: could send Seal Team six there and get him, was 1750 01:44:33,720 --> 01:44:36,519 Speaker 22: Palenteer software. They won't admit that, but I know that 1751 01:44:36,600 --> 01:44:37,160 Speaker 22: for a fact. 1752 01:44:37,200 --> 01:44:43,000 Speaker 1: So Joel is in Lakeville, Minnesota. Joel, you're on with 1753 01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:44,560 Speaker 1: Jim Woods and Larry. 1754 01:44:45,720 --> 01:44:49,040 Speaker 4: Hey guys, Larry, great show, and I wish he had 1755 01:44:49,080 --> 01:44:51,400 Speaker 4: won the California governor But at any rate. 1756 01:44:52,920 --> 01:44:53,320 Speaker 22: Me too. 1757 01:44:56,040 --> 01:45:00,680 Speaker 4: Comment we're in an environment where it's very difficult for 1758 01:45:00,840 --> 01:45:04,519 Speaker 4: just the normal American. I didn't get ahead, and like 1759 01:45:04,560 --> 01:45:06,400 Speaker 4: the other guy was saying, I know you can piece 1760 01:45:06,439 --> 01:45:08,720 Speaker 4: by piece buy things like the SMP, but just the 1761 01:45:08,880 --> 01:45:11,680 Speaker 4: for example, the average working hours to buy the S 1762 01:45:11,720 --> 01:45:14,040 Speaker 4: and P five hundred, let's say in the eighties and nineties, 1763 01:45:14,120 --> 01:45:16,639 Speaker 4: was around twenty to thirty hours to buy one share, 1764 01:45:16,920 --> 01:45:19,400 Speaker 4: and now it's about ten times the amount of working 1765 01:45:19,439 --> 01:45:22,599 Speaker 4: hours to get that one same S and P five hundred. 1766 01:45:22,640 --> 01:45:24,400 Speaker 4: So what does that What does that mean? What does 1767 01:45:24,439 --> 01:45:26,480 Speaker 4: that tell us everything's so overvalued? 1768 01:45:26,880 --> 01:45:30,000 Speaker 1: Or Jim, can you colm it? 1769 01:45:30,320 --> 01:45:33,160 Speaker 22: Yeah, that's that. That's a that's a very interesting point. 1770 01:45:33,320 --> 01:45:37,960 Speaker 22: I've heard that before and I believe it's accurate. Well, 1771 01:45:38,479 --> 01:45:42,080 Speaker 22: it's interesting because I mentioned earlier, since two thousand and nine, 1772 01:45:42,120 --> 01:45:46,720 Speaker 22: since they you know, the Great Recession rebound, the S 1773 01:45:46,760 --> 01:45:49,000 Speaker 22: and P has been up about nine almost ten, ten 1774 01:45:49,040 --> 01:45:52,360 Speaker 22: times nine and thirty percent so and part of the 1775 01:45:52,400 --> 01:45:57,720 Speaker 22: reason is not just because the market is doing so 1776 01:45:57,800 --> 01:46:00,240 Speaker 22: well and corporate profits were a one one of the 1777 01:46:00,280 --> 01:46:05,160 Speaker 22: reasons was because of the government invention, intervention in the economy, 1778 01:46:05,680 --> 01:46:09,640 Speaker 22: all the stimulus packages that we had, the QE, the 1779 01:46:09,840 --> 01:46:14,960 Speaker 22: near zero percent interest rates, all of these different bailouts 1780 01:46:15,000 --> 01:46:20,360 Speaker 22: and fixes that we've gone through over the years, and 1781 01:46:20,640 --> 01:46:23,439 Speaker 22: of course since the seventies going off the gold standard, 1782 01:46:24,040 --> 01:46:26,920 Speaker 22: the dollar has been debased. It's been defiled, as I say, 1783 01:46:28,320 --> 01:46:32,840 Speaker 22: and you have a market that's nominally much higher, but 1784 01:46:33,760 --> 01:46:36,639 Speaker 22: when you look at it in real dollar terms, it's 1785 01:46:36,680 --> 01:46:40,760 Speaker 22: not as great as it could be. Now, we can't 1786 01:46:40,800 --> 01:46:44,880 Speaker 22: do anything about that here. Maybe on a policy level 1787 01:46:44,880 --> 01:46:49,040 Speaker 22: we can try to influence that. But the only revenge 1788 01:46:49,080 --> 01:46:51,679 Speaker 22: we have, and the only way to kind of take 1789 01:46:52,360 --> 01:46:56,720 Speaker 22: ourselves into the mix and take our own reigns to 1790 01:46:56,800 --> 01:47:00,280 Speaker 22: this issue, is to invest. That's the only that's the 1791 01:47:00,320 --> 01:47:02,599 Speaker 22: only solution as I see it. If somebody could tell 1792 01:47:02,640 --> 01:47:04,880 Speaker 22: me a better solution, I would I would go for it. 1793 01:47:05,439 --> 01:47:07,439 Speaker 22: I don't see a better solution to put your money 1794 01:47:07,439 --> 01:47:07,720 Speaker 22: to work. 1795 01:47:07,840 --> 01:47:11,920 Speaker 1: James is in Tennessee. James, you with Jim Woods and Larry. 1796 01:47:13,360 --> 01:47:13,559 Speaker 3: Hey. 1797 01:47:13,640 --> 01:47:18,679 Speaker 29: Yes, gentlemen, for the first part of this country, tariffs 1798 01:47:18,720 --> 01:47:22,200 Speaker 29: is basically with the income that kept things going. And 1799 01:47:22,240 --> 01:47:24,400 Speaker 29: then we had the income tax with around the tentage 1800 01:47:24,439 --> 01:47:27,559 Speaker 29: or so, and now there's no good way to go. 1801 01:47:28,520 --> 01:47:29,679 Speaker 29: Could you explain that place? 1802 01:47:29,840 --> 01:47:32,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're absolutely right, Jim, as you know. As you know, 1803 01:47:32,479 --> 01:47:36,840 Speaker 1: tariffs were the number one source of income until the 1804 01:47:36,840 --> 01:47:39,760 Speaker 1: Constitution was amended for the income tax. Even then, in 1805 01:47:39,920 --> 01:47:42,960 Speaker 1: nineteen thirteen, about fifty percent of the nation's income came 1806 01:47:42,960 --> 01:47:43,559 Speaker 1: from tariff's. 1807 01:47:44,880 --> 01:47:49,599 Speaker 22: Yeah, that's that's totally historically accurate. But what isn't mentioned 1808 01:47:49,680 --> 01:47:55,519 Speaker 22: during those those discussions is that government was way smaller, 1809 01:47:56,400 --> 01:48:01,040 Speaker 22: and we didn't have a huge FDR run welfare state. 1810 01:48:01,040 --> 01:48:03,200 Speaker 22: We didn't have all these government programs, we didn't have 1811 01:48:03,240 --> 01:48:06,000 Speaker 22: all these government agencies, we didn't have this big, huge 1812 01:48:06,000 --> 01:48:10,080 Speaker 22: defense budget. So it was relatively easy to get the 1813 01:48:10,120 --> 01:48:14,240 Speaker 22: revenue we need based with teriffs, based on the fact 1814 01:48:14,280 --> 01:48:16,559 Speaker 22: that the government was so small in terms of you know, 1815 01:48:16,640 --> 01:48:19,160 Speaker 22: consumption of GDP. So if we could go back to 1816 01:48:19,240 --> 01:48:22,120 Speaker 22: those days, I'd be all for tariffs. We get rid 1817 01:48:22,120 --> 01:48:24,880 Speaker 22: of the income tax, I'll be all. Sign sign me up. 1818 01:48:25,080 --> 01:48:26,840 Speaker 1: You know, some years ago I was on Fox and 1819 01:48:26,880 --> 01:48:28,280 Speaker 1: Friends in the morning and I said, you know, in 1820 01:48:28,360 --> 01:48:31,839 Speaker 1: nineteen hundred, at all three levels, federal, state, local government 1821 01:48:31,840 --> 01:48:33,800 Speaker 1: took around nine percent from the American people. Today it 1822 01:48:33,800 --> 01:48:37,000 Speaker 1: takes around thirty two percent and even almost fifty percent 1823 01:48:37,040 --> 01:48:39,439 Speaker 1: if you add value to so called mandates. I get 1824 01:48:39,479 --> 01:48:42,280 Speaker 1: a phone call Gym from one of these fact check organizations. 1825 01:48:42,880 --> 01:48:44,680 Speaker 1: This morning. You were on TV and you said that 1826 01:48:44,720 --> 01:48:46,680 Speaker 1: in nineteen hundred, government only took nine percent of the 1827 01:48:46,720 --> 01:48:49,680 Speaker 1: American people at a federal, state and local Do you 1828 01:48:49,680 --> 01:48:51,400 Speaker 1: have any source for that? I said, no, I just 1829 01:48:51,439 --> 01:48:52,800 Speaker 1: pulled it out of my butt. Of course I have 1830 01:48:52,840 --> 01:48:55,320 Speaker 1: a source. I gave him a source. And the point 1831 01:48:55,360 --> 01:48:58,679 Speaker 1: is they were stunned that at one time we could 1832 01:48:58,800 --> 01:49:01,400 Speaker 1: run the government. We're in the country with only about 1833 01:49:01,520 --> 01:49:04,400 Speaker 1: nine percent taken from the American people. They were actually shocked. 1834 01:49:05,840 --> 01:49:07,920 Speaker 22: Yeah, if there was a if that was a return 1835 01:49:08,000 --> 01:49:10,280 Speaker 22: to that to that state. Now, I'm not saying that 1836 01:49:10,320 --> 01:49:12,600 Speaker 22: there will be, and I'm not planning for that, but 1837 01:49:12,800 --> 01:49:16,599 Speaker 22: let's just say, hypothetically, in a Larry Elder Jim Woods world, 1838 01:49:16,760 --> 01:49:20,559 Speaker 22: if we could go back to nine percent of government 1839 01:49:20,680 --> 01:49:25,160 Speaker 22: consumption of our good GDP, this country would be. It 1840 01:49:25,200 --> 01:49:28,560 Speaker 22: wouldn't even be like you wouldn't even recognize it. It 1841 01:49:28,600 --> 01:49:33,479 Speaker 22: would be like the most beautifully utopia that would ever be. 1842 01:49:33,720 --> 01:49:36,600 Speaker 22: I mean, talk about AI being a labor saver. That 1843 01:49:36,960 --> 01:49:37,519 Speaker 22: would really be. 1844 01:49:38,040 --> 01:49:39,240 Speaker 1: We come back, Jim. I want to talk to you 1845 01:49:39,240 --> 01:49:41,400 Speaker 1: about the fact that fifty percent of Americans under the 1846 01:49:41,439 --> 01:49:44,080 Speaker 1: age of forty want a Democrat socialist to be president. 1847 01:49:44,800 --> 01:49:47,320 Speaker 1: Bill Wrights. I've been crawling under sinks and working long 1848 01:49:47,320 --> 01:49:49,880 Speaker 1: hours for decades. My back and knees. Took the punishment, 1849 01:49:50,120 --> 01:49:52,240 Speaker 1: thought pain was just part of the trade, but Relief 1850 01:49:52,280 --> 01:49:55,280 Speaker 1: Factor surprised me. Within weeks, I was working without winting. 1851 01:49:55,280 --> 01:49:56,639 Speaker 1: I could get down on the floor and get back 1852 01:49:56,680 --> 01:49:59,519 Speaker 1: up again without thinking twice. Bill knows hard work, you 1853 01:49:59,520 --> 01:50:01,800 Speaker 1: know with pipe, he knows tools, he knows long days 1854 01:50:01,800 --> 01:50:03,679 Speaker 1: on the job. But he didn't know is how good 1855 01:50:03,720 --> 01:50:06,760 Speaker 1: life feels when pain stops tagging along. Relief Factor didn't 1856 01:50:06,840 --> 01:50:10,560 Speaker 1: change Bill's trade, it changed his tomorrow. I've told you 1857 01:50:10,600 --> 01:50:12,800 Speaker 1: about Kurt going up and down the stairs. Able to 1858 01:50:12,840 --> 01:50:15,479 Speaker 1: do it now after he finally followed my advice start 1859 01:50:15,520 --> 01:50:18,799 Speaker 1: taking Relief Factor.

The theme was American to watch It. 1870 01:51:02,439 --> 01:51:05,880 Speaker 1: Go to Larry Eldercan dot com.

Jim, 1873 01:51:15,280 --> 01:51:17,960 Speaker 1: I just saw Paul fifty percent of Americans under the 1874 01:51:17,960 --> 01:51:20,720 Speaker 1: age of forty want a Democrat socialist for president. In 1875 01:51:20,720 --> 01:51:24,240 Speaker 1: twenty twenty eight, seventy percent of Democrats under the age 1876 01:51:24,240 --> 01:51:26,160 Speaker 1: of forty two. What's that all about? 1877 01:51:28,439 --> 01:51:28,680 Speaker 3: You know? 1878 01:51:28,720 --> 01:51:35,680 Speaker 22: The false allure, the sirens song, as it were, of 1879 01:51:35,760 --> 01:51:39,960 Speaker 22: socialism never ceases to rear its head every few years, 1880 01:51:41,200 --> 01:51:45,559 Speaker 22: and it's in a utopian type of idea that has 1881 01:51:45,640 --> 01:51:48,320 Speaker 22: been proven time and time again to be one of 1882 01:51:48,400 --> 01:51:53,439 Speaker 22: the most destructive forces in the history of humanity. And 1883 01:51:53,640 --> 01:51:56,840 Speaker 22: I think as far when people get further and further 1884 01:51:56,920 --> 01:52:00,160 Speaker 22: away from the real horrors of it, they tend to 1885 01:52:00,920 --> 01:52:03,800 Speaker 22: forget about it. And we don't teach history like we 1886 01:52:03,920 --> 01:52:06,000 Speaker 22: used to in school. Like when you and I were 1887 01:52:06,000 --> 01:52:08,720 Speaker 22: in school, we learned about that firsthand. We learned we 1888 01:52:08,840 --> 01:52:14,000 Speaker 22: had we battled a socialist power in Russia and the 1889 01:52:14,040 --> 01:52:18,400 Speaker 22: Soviet Union. So we know what this thing is. And 1890 01:52:18,800 --> 01:52:22,639 Speaker 22: every by any metric, a socialist country, like a real 1891 01:52:22,680 --> 01:52:26,120 Speaker 22: socialist country, not just like a European style socialism, which 1892 01:52:26,160 --> 01:52:30,160 Speaker 22: is a mix of capitalism and whatnot and has smaller population. 1893 01:52:30,880 --> 01:52:35,040 Speaker 22: But all these countries are just from a hell, from 1894 01:52:35,040 --> 01:52:39,760 Speaker 22: a growth a wealth standpoint, are just not there. And 1895 01:52:39,800 --> 01:52:42,000 Speaker 22: the worst part about it is is there's no freedom. 1896 01:52:42,280 --> 01:52:43,599 Speaker 22: You know, there's little freedom. 1897 01:52:44,000 --> 01:52:44,080 Speaker 6: Now. 1898 01:52:44,160 --> 01:52:46,840 Speaker 22: People will argue, you know, in favor of like, oh 1899 01:52:46,920 --> 01:52:49,640 Speaker 22: well they have socialist socialized health care. That's good, we 1900 01:52:49,680 --> 01:52:51,479 Speaker 22: have free health care. We have free that. But as 1901 01:52:51,520 --> 01:52:54,760 Speaker 22: we both know from Milton Friedman, there is no such 1902 01:52:54,840 --> 01:52:58,559 Speaker 22: thing as a free lunch. Everybody pays, and it's just 1903 01:52:58,600 --> 01:52:59,799 Speaker 22: a matter of who pays. 1904 01:53:00,920 --> 01:53:03,920 Speaker 1: We have about forty five seconds left. I just saw 1905 01:53:04,040 --> 01:53:09,839 Speaker 1: a hypothetical race between JD. Vance and AOC is literally 1906 01:53:09,960 --> 01:53:13,960 Speaker 1: within the margin of error literally if the Democrats nominate 1907 01:53:14,040 --> 01:53:16,960 Speaker 1: somebody like AOC right now, anyway, the polls show she 1908 01:53:17,000 --> 01:53:19,320 Speaker 1: has a fifty to fifty shot of winning against JD. Vans. 1909 01:53:22,280 --> 01:53:27,240 Speaker 22: Yeah, it's a it's a it's a remarkable commentary on 1910 01:53:27,560 --> 01:53:31,240 Speaker 22: you know, the split nature of our country, and we 1911 01:53:31,360 --> 01:53:32,880 Speaker 22: just have to keep on doing what we're doing and 1912 01:53:33,040 --> 01:53:37,320 Speaker 22: educating people and the proper proper economics, proper proper ideas. 1913 01:53:38,160 --> 01:53:38,720 Speaker 22: All we can do. 1914 01:53:38,840 --> 01:53:41,280 Speaker 1: The investing summit that Jim Woods and I did together 1915 01:53:41,439 --> 01:53:46,160 Speaker 1: Larry Eldercan dot com, Larryoldercan dot com.
