Speaker 1: Now, Letitia James, she's in more trouble than she could
Speaker 1: have ever possibly have known she'd be in, in part
Speaker 1: because of, well, a new development that the president actually
Speaker 1: tweeted out. Apparently she's guilty of doing the exact same thing.
Speaker 1: That she accused him of doing, of course we don't
Speaker 1: really think that what he did was in any way,
Speaker 1: shape or form a crime, but you know, so long
Speaker 1: as we're settling scores here we're gonna talk all about
Speaker 1: Letitia James. Plus Donald Trump's got a new approval rating
Speaker 1: and I gotta tell you guys this must just kill
Speaker 1: CBS News to have to report this. It's their poll
Speaker 1: and hey, how do you like this for sweet justice
Speaker 1: if you would? They're reporting that his approval rating is
Speaker 1: through the roof.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get into the actual numbers and on top
Speaker 1: of that he's coming back doubling the lawsuit again 60
Speaker 1: minutes he's doubling it. He's totally gonna put him out
Speaker 1: to out of business like bye bye bye CBS if
Speaker 1: this thing all comes to being. We're gonna talk a
Speaker 1: little bit about the Super Bowl. Taylor Swift got booed
Speaker 1: boy to Donald Trump really, really, really like that. And
Speaker 1: big news, Doge is going after FEMA. Yeah, FEMA.
Speaker 1: Because apparently they're sending billions of dollars to big hotels
Speaker 1: in New York City while not really bothering with the
Speaker 1: poor people.
Speaker 1: That have been left destitute because of the storms down
Speaker 1: in North Carolina. All important information to get to today.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the program. Make sure that you subscribe, share, like,
Speaker 1: all that good stuff. We are independent, proudly, fiercely independent
Speaker 1: here on the Trish Regan show, and I appreciate your support.
Speaker 1: So make sure you subscribe, hit the bell so you
Speaker 1: know when I'm here.
Speaker 1: Letitia James is in a whole lot of trouble, more
Speaker 1: than you could have ever imagined. I know, I know,
Speaker 1: you know, this is a woman who campaigned on one
Speaker 1: thing and one thing only. He's called me venomous. We
Speaker 1: will fight back to your attempt to bring Trumpism to
Speaker 1: New York City. He's called me disgraceful.
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court.
Speaker 1: Illegitimate president.
Speaker 1: Illegitimate member
Speaker 1: Supreme Court. OK, I'm not gonna torture you. I know
Speaker 1: you know how bad she is. I just want to
Speaker 1: remind you a little sampling there. Well anyway, it's just
Speaker 1: come out now that apparently she might have done something
Speaker 1: rather fraudulent with her own real estate holdings. This is
Speaker 1: Roger Stone who sent this out now it's Roger Stone.
Speaker 1: Who likes to disturb a bit, shall we say, what
Speaker 1: do you call him and you know what's disturb her anyway,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump sending it out, retweeting this. A careful examination
Speaker 1: of New York attorney General Letitia James financial disclosures Roger
Speaker 1: Wrights shows she.
Speaker 1: Inflated the value of her assets in order to get
Speaker 1: mortgages on various commercial properties. Exactly what she accused President
Speaker 1: Trump of doing, falsely accused, he adds. President Trump of
Speaker 1: doing so, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a second. Remember
Speaker 1: how this all went down? Donald Trump went to Deutsche Bank, said, Hey,
Speaker 1: I want a loan. Deutsche Bank said, Sure, what do
Speaker 1: you got is collateral? He said, I got these commercial
Speaker 1: properties including one Mar a Lago, and it's valued at
Speaker 1: whatever he valued at.
Speaker 1: Letitia James then goes back after the fact and says,
Speaker 1: oh no, no, I don't think Mar a Lago was
Speaker 1: actually worth what you think it's worth. I think it's
Speaker 1: only worth $18 million despite the fact that it makes
Speaker 1: $57 a year. Anyway, she's coming in.
Speaker 1: As the attorney general of the state of New York saying, no,
Speaker 1: I don't think you can do this deal with Deutsche
Speaker 1: Bank because I think you inflated the value of Mar
Speaker 1: a Lago, of course, values in the eye of the beholder,
Speaker 1: shall we say? I mean, I'd buy it for $18 million.
Speaker 1: We can get a few people together, do a deal
Speaker 1: and buy that buy that puppy for $18 million.
Speaker 1: I mean it's bonkers. The whole thing is bonkers, and
Speaker 1: then he winds up with a $500 million nearly $500
Speaker 1: million fine. It is absolutely the most insane thing I've
Speaker 1: ever seen, and to me this is the most egregious one,
Speaker 1: you know that, and maybe it's because I've been a
Speaker 1: business reporter my entire career, but I really, and, and
Speaker 1: I'm a capitalist, red blooded.
Speaker 1: American capitalists are hard. I don't like the idea of
Speaker 1: Letitia James coming in between me and my bank, but
Speaker 1: you know, don't forget this is the woman that wanted
Speaker 1: to seize his assets. She was trying to seize his
Speaker 1: assets if he couldn't come up with the $500 million.
Speaker 1: She's like, why doesn't he have it? Like anybody has
Speaker 1: that laying around, chump change, yeah, let me go up
Speaker 1: to the bedroom and get it. It's under my mattress.
Speaker 1: I don't think so, Leticia, not even Elon, wealthiest guy
Speaker 1: in the world, has that. Here she is saying she's
Speaker 1: gonna go after every asset.
Speaker 1: Four days after a judge ordered Donald Trump to pay
Speaker 1: $355 million for a decade of fraud, New York Attorney
Speaker 1: General Letitia James says she's prepared to do everything she
Speaker 1: can to make sure the former president pays his fine, including,
Speaker 1: she told us, seizing the buildings that bear his name.
Speaker 1: If he does not have funds to pay off the judgment,
Speaker 1: then we will seek judgment enforcement mechanisms in court.
Speaker 1: And we will ask the judge to seize his assets. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you see, that's what she wanted to do. That's what
Speaker 1: she wanted to do all along, spirit filled thank you
Speaker 1: so much for your generosity. I'll get to your comment
Speaker 1: in just a second, but that's the problem here, OK?
Speaker 1: You get these uber political people that are trying to
Speaker 1: go after Donald Trump that have no business going after
Speaker 1: him for lawful transactions, and now what do you know?
Speaker 1: Turns out she might have done something quite similar.
Speaker 1: Indeed, quite similar. Leave it to Roger to uncover this.
Speaker 1: So she's, she's kind of, you know, in, in, in
Speaker 1: a bit of a pickle here. She's trying to act
Speaker 1: all victorious because, you know, Doge, they've been moving full
Speaker 1: force ahead with USA. They're closing down building things that
Speaker 1: I'm gonna show you some of this video because it's really,
Speaker 1: really remarkable. It's just great. You got Maxine Waters outside
Speaker 1: the Department of Education screaming at the security guard. I
Speaker 1: mean it is amazing all the things that are happening.
Speaker 1: And will continue to happen. So Leticia's kind of angry
Speaker 1: about that.
Speaker 1: Very angry about that. I mean, maybe she's angry. Maybe
Speaker 1: she's getting some kind of kickback. I don't know, $57
Speaker 1: million that do just figured out was going from FEMA
Speaker 1: to the hotels in New York City to cover the
Speaker 1: migrants when we can't even pay for people in Florida
Speaker 1: or North Carolina. Like that makes sense. Leticia James was
Speaker 1: trying to.
Speaker 1: Seize his assets. Leticia James thinks that she can still
Speaker 1: go after this president. Leticia James is trying to go
Speaker 1: after Elon Musk and Doge under the pretense that somehow
Speaker 1: Elon's getting access to your Social Security number. Sorry, he's
Speaker 1: not interested in those. He's interested in what you are
Speaker 1: spending your money on one.
Speaker 1: In the past week, Elon Musk and his so-called Department
Speaker 1: of government Efficiency have accessed the personal private information of
Speaker 1: tens of millions of Americans.
Speaker 1: And sensitive data about public and private entities.
Speaker 1: Social Security numbers, addresses, tax returns, and more.
Speaker 1: This unelected group led by the world's richest man is
Speaker 1: not authorized to have this information.
Speaker 1: And they explicitly sought this unauthorized access to illegally block
Speaker 1: payments that millions of Americans rely on.
Speaker 1: Payments for health care payments like um.
Speaker 1: The 57 million going to the fancy hotels or how
Speaker 1: about the 200 million that's going to the Pakistani group
Speaker 1: that runs that one Roosevelt hotel? No, no, no, no, no, look,
Speaker 1: you got this all wrong and Leticia, you know, you
Speaker 1: better get with the program because if you don't, Mike Davis,
Speaker 1: the attorney for Donald Trump had a rather interesting, I
Speaker 1: love the sound but I know some of you guys
Speaker 1: have seen it before, but you know what? I need
Speaker 1: a good laugh. I just had to watch Leticia try
Speaker 1: and say all that, you know what.
Speaker 1: So let's watch Mike, who says, you know where you're heading, honey. Uh,
Speaker 1: let me just say this to Big Tish James, the
Speaker 1: New York attorney General, I, I, I dare you. I
Speaker 1: dare you to try to continue your lawfare against President
Speaker 1: Trump in his second term because listen here, sweetheart, we're
Speaker 1: not messing around this time, and we will put your
Speaker 1: fat ass in prison for conspiracy against rights, and I
Speaker 1: promise you that.
Speaker 1: So, so think long and hard, he says, way to go,
Speaker 1: you know what we're gonna put your fat ass and
Speaker 1: you know where. So Leticia's already running up against it
Speaker 1: because Leticia's losing her credentials, you see, that's kind of important,
Speaker 1: I guess, sort of at least symbolically for one Leticia James,
Speaker 1: if you're so full of yourself as she is, you
Speaker 1: need to have all those federal clearances. Well, they're gone poof, gonzo.
Speaker 1: Donald Trump stripping Leticia James also.
Speaker 1: The DA Alvin brag of their clearances because, well, he
Speaker 1: doesn't really trust them.
Speaker 1: Would you? I mean, the woman's starting to bankrupt you,
Speaker 1: she's made that abundantly clear. Alvin Bragg is so proud
Speaker 1: he's got these uh.
Speaker 1: Criminal counts against you, that whole thing, by the way,
Speaker 1: is gonna get tossed out in court, as is Leticia's case,
Speaker 1: for goodness sakes. I wish these guys would get moving,
Speaker 1: you know what? They don't move like Trump moves. Trump's
Speaker 1: moving at lightning speed, getting everything exposed with Doge. You
Speaker 1: get Leticia losing her access, um, also Andrew Weissman, remember
Speaker 1: he was the lead prosecutor in the special counsel Robert
Speaker 1: Mueller case. Then you have, and he, he hates Trump.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's always on MSNBC telling us how.
Speaker 1: Trump and then you have uh the guy who represented
Speaker 1: the CIA analyst identified as the whistleblower in Trump's impeachment
Speaker 1: in 2019 over that phone call with Zelensky that would
Speaker 1: be Mark Zade. You also have one Antony Blinken, who's
Speaker 1: no longer got his security clearance. That's a big deal.
Speaker 1: He revoked Biden's as well, as well as Jake Sullivan.
Speaker 1: I mean Lisa Monaco, who was the attorney General Biden's
Speaker 1: attorney deputy.
Speaker 1: I should say, who was involved in overseeing those lawfare investigations. Listen,
Speaker 1: they're all losing it. They're all losing their credentials, and
Speaker 1: this is part of cleaning house like cleaning house needs
Speaker 1: to happen right now, and I'm telling you, Pam Bondi's
Speaker 1: coming for Leticia. That's what's next. You won't believe what
Speaker 1: Pam said just last night ahead of the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get to that, but first, quick shout out
Speaker 1: from one of our wonderful sponsors here on the Trish
Speaker 1: Regan show. We love our friends over at American Heart
Speaker 1: for Gold. You can get up to $15,000 worth of
Speaker 1: free silver right now. How about that?
Speaker 1: At American Heart for Gold if you text Trish to
Speaker 1: 65532 or you go to this URL Trishloves Gold.com. Trishloves
Speaker 1: Gold.com can't forget that. I do, I do. So anyway,
Speaker 1: 18444951115 is there.
Speaker 1: Phone number if you want to call him, use my
Speaker 1: name to get that $15,000 worth of free silver if
Speaker 1: that's what you're interested in because hey, why not? You
Speaker 1: know what, silver tends to ride along with gold. You
Speaker 1: know the gold has been climbing, climbing, climbing, even in
Speaker 1: this atmosphere when Donald Trump is trying to.
Speaker 1: Find some kind of resolution to the insane debt loads
Speaker 1: we have. We still have people really worried, me being
Speaker 1: one of them, about inflation that's coming from just the
Speaker 1: sheer printing of money. So check this out. Trishloves gold.com.
Speaker 1: Pam is coming for Leticia. You better believe it. Pam
Speaker 1: Bondi's not messing around. The new attorney General of the
Speaker 1: United States of America said that she's looking at all
Speaker 1: of this. First of all, for starters, what is she doing?
Speaker 1: She's stopping the funding to places like New York City,
Speaker 1: sanctuary cities that are going up against the law and
Speaker 1: order of this administration. She's like, no, no, no, we're
Speaker 1: not gonna fund you.
Speaker 1: You wanna actually you wanna fight back against us and
Speaker 1: think you're your own little country so be it, but
Speaker 1: you're not gonna get federal funding, so this is a
Speaker 1: big deal. The other thing that she's doing is she's
Speaker 1: looking at arresting individuals like one Leticia James if they're
Speaker 1: standing in the way of ICE doing its job. In
Speaker 1: other words, you have a federal agency that is charged
Speaker 1: with controlling our border and charged with controlling who's in
Speaker 1: this country when they go around the country.
Speaker 1: And they try and round people up, known criminals, by
Speaker 1: the way, we get 650,000 known criminals that are here
Speaker 1: illegally in the United States. Well, they need to be
Speaker 1: able to go in and arrest them, but it makes
Speaker 1: it really hard when you have some people in some
Speaker 1: particular places of power trying to tip off.
Speaker 1: Those in those communities right? so Pam's like no I'm
Speaker 1: not having it listen to her here saying she's going
Speaker 1: after any and all leakers if you say that an
Speaker 1: ICE raid is coming in and if you screw it
Speaker 1: up that's actually gonna come with a serious penalty you listening, Leticia?
Speaker 1: There may be a leak inside the house as it
Speaker 1: relates to DHS and some of the operations that they
Speaker 1: are attempting to carry out. What's your reaction to hearing
Speaker 1: about that and what if anything can be done to
Speaker 1: mitigate that?
Speaker 1: Well you know if anyone leaks anything, people don't understand
Speaker 1: that jeopardizes the lives of our great men and women
Speaker 1: in law enforcement, and if you leaked it, we will
Speaker 1: find out who you are and we will come after you,
Speaker 1: and it's not going to stop our mission. It's not
Speaker 1: going to stop the president's mission to make America safe again.
Speaker 1: We were very clear with the lawsuit that we filed
Speaker 1: in Chicago that if you don't follow the law, you
Speaker 1: will be prosecuted by the Department of Justice.
Speaker 1: Boom. OK, so she's coming after you. Leticia again, I'd
Speaker 1: recommend you listen up. I'd recommend you stop tipping off
Speaker 1: anybody that you're tipping off here if you're tipping off,
Speaker 1: here's Pam Bondi again saying she's stopping all federal funding.
Speaker 1: Leticia James on the other hand, says, well, New York
Speaker 1: has laws that protect immigrants and limit cooperation with federal
Speaker 1: immigration enforcement efforts.
Speaker 1: Those laws should be followed by law enforcement and officials
Speaker 1: in our state. I'll always uphold our laws and protect
Speaker 1: immigrant New Yorkers. No, no, no, no, no, let me
Speaker 1: be very clear on this. I'm not a legal scholar, OK,
Speaker 1: like I'm not a legal scholar, but I know enough
Speaker 1: about the law to know in this case if there's
Speaker 1: one thing, if there's one thing the federal government has.
Speaker 1: It's the ability to control its borders. That's why Governor
Speaker 1: Abbott ran up against it when Biden kept tearing down
Speaker 1: the walls he was trying to put up to keep
Speaker 1: the illegals out.
Speaker 1: The Biden administration went back to what we're in charge
Speaker 1: because we're the feds and we control the borders.
Speaker 1: And so yeah it kind of sucked for Texas but
Speaker 1: the federal government's in charge and this is one Letitia
Speaker 1: James where you just don't have a leg to stand on.
Speaker 1: And they're gonna keep coming for you. Tom Holman saying
Speaker 1: he's working closely with Pam Bondi to make sure they
Speaker 1: can put you in cuffs should you do such things.
Speaker 2: When they cross the line of impediment, and that's why
Speaker 2: I'm working very closely starting this morning with the Department
Speaker 2: of Justice, and where do they cross that line of impediment.
Speaker 2: So they may find themselves in a pair of handcuffs
Speaker 2: very soon. So working with DOJ on that gets some
Speaker 2: legal guidance on that. I'm not an attorney. I know
Speaker 2: what that cops is about. I know what crossing that
Speaker 2: line is, but getting DOJ back up on that. So
Speaker 2: it's something we're looking at right now, Harris, we're not
Speaker 2: going to tolerate it anymore. This is not a game
Speaker 2: when we.
Speaker 2: These sites. This is a dangerous job for the men
Speaker 2: and women of ICE and Border Patrol and all the
Speaker 2: DOJ agencies to have that type of interference puts our
Speaker 2: offices at great risk. Not only the officers, it puts
Speaker 2: the aliens at great risk because anything can happen when
Speaker 2: we take our eyes off the goal here. So we're
Speaker 2: addressing that immediately today. I'm addressing offsets today, operational security,
Speaker 2: how these leaks are happening. We've already identified how this
Speaker 2: operator got leaked. I'll deal with that today.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's not messing around. He's angry he's referring to
Speaker 1: an operation in Colorado that got leaked apparently one just
Speaker 1: got leaked in LA. Listen, they are not messing around
Speaker 1: because to Pam Bondi's point, you're putting officers of the
Speaker 1: lot in a tremendous amount of jeopardy when you're leaking
Speaker 1: these things and so they gotta get rid of them,
Speaker 1: all of the leakers, and they've got to prosecute right now.
Speaker 1: In the meantime they gotta move forward with people like.
Speaker 1: Letitia James, who think that somehow they are little islands
Speaker 1: unto themselves. I get that Manhattan is an island, right?
Speaker 1: Like it's not it's own country, that's the thing. OK,
Speaker 1: so you don't have a leg to stand on, honey,
Speaker 1: and let's go back to what my. Uh, let me
Speaker 1: just say this to Big Tish James, the New York
Speaker 1: attorney General.
Speaker 1: I dare you. I dare you to try to continue
Speaker 1: your lawfare against President Trump in his second term because
Speaker 1: listen here, sweetheart, we're not messing around this time, and
Speaker 1: we will put your fat ass in prison for conspiracy
Speaker 1: against rights, and I promise you that. So think. Think twice.
Speaker 1: Think hard, Leticia.
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, FEMA ought to start thinking about just exactly what
Speaker 1: they've been doing over the years. Donald Trump ordering an
Speaker 1: investigation into FEMA we're finding out where all the money
Speaker 1: went there, and it didn't go to the people who
Speaker 1: needed it. I mean you can go all the way back,
Speaker 1: go all the way back to Hurricane Katrina. I remember
Speaker 1: reporting on that back when I worked in mainstream media
Speaker 1: for CBS News. I was stuck down there for what?
Speaker 1: You know, a couple of months, I mean it was
Speaker 1: really horrible the aftermath and what was so heartbreaking was
Speaker 1: that they had all these trailers and they couldn't get
Speaker 1: them to the people. It was so messed up, remember that? Well,
Speaker 1: it's continued to be messed up and why you ask why? Well,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump has some thoughts.
Speaker 1: Oh, before we get to that, guess what's happening to FEMA.
Speaker 1: Exactly what you're looking at on the screen. Do you
Speaker 1: see that bye bye bye? That's the US aid building.
Speaker 1: They had their signage taken right off of them on Friday.
Speaker 1: The Democrats are losing it, and that's what's going to
Speaker 1: happen to FEMA as well. Executive order to begin the
Speaker 1: process of fundamentally reforming and overhauling FEMA or maybe getting
Speaker 1: rid of FEMA. I think frankly FEMA is not good.
Speaker 1: I think when you have a problem like this, I
Speaker 1: think you want to go and whether it's a Democrat
Speaker 1: or Republican governor, you want to use your state to
Speaker 1: fix it and not waste time calling FEMA, and then
Speaker 1: FEMA gets here and they don't know the area. They've
Speaker 1: never been to the area and they want to give
Speaker 1: you rules that you've never heard about. They want to
Speaker 1: bring people that aren't as good as the people you
Speaker 1: already have, and FEMA's turned out to be a disaster
Speaker 1: and you could go back a long way. You could
Speaker 1: go back to.
Speaker 1: Louisiana, you could go back to some of the things
Speaker 1: that took place in Texas. It turns out to be
Speaker 1: the state that ends up doing the work. It just
Speaker 1: complicates it. I think we're going to recommend that FEMA
Speaker 1: go away.
Speaker 1: And we pay directly, we pay a percentage to the state,
Speaker 1: but the state should fix this. If the state did
Speaker 1: this from the beginning, it would have been a lot
Speaker 1: better situation. I think you guys agree with that.
Speaker 1: In other words, FEMA, good luck. Steve Fishman, thank you
Speaker 1: for your generosity and other super chat. That's great to see, uh,
Speaker 1: from both of you guys. I wanna get to these
Speaker 1: comments in a moment because he's wondering again about why
Speaker 1: we don't have John Radcliffe coming in to deal with
Speaker 1: Leticia we can discuss, but I will just say this
Speaker 1: there's a lot of fraud that needs to get uncovered,
Speaker 1: whether it be from USA, whether it be from FEMA.
Speaker 1: Take a look at this. Elon tweeting out earlier today.
Speaker 1: The Doge team just discovered that FEMA sent $59 million
Speaker 1: last week to luxury hotels in New York City to
Speaker 1: house illegal migrants. This is like just last week.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, sending this money violated the law and
Speaker 1: is in gross insubordination to the president's executive order. That
Speaker 1: money is meant for American disaster relief and instead is
Speaker 1: being spent on high-end hotels for illegals. A clawback demand
Speaker 1: will be made today to recoup those funds. Think of
Speaker 1: this waste that they are uncovering and exposing in real time,
Speaker 1: and Americans are with them. They're.
Speaker 1: With those they're with the president we're seeing it in
Speaker 1: the latest approval polls. I've got more on that, but
Speaker 1: it's gross when New York City hotels are converted into
Speaker 1: migrant shelters, I guess this tells us why you can't
Speaker 1: get a hotel room in New York anymore. thousands of
Speaker 1: dollars it costs. Why? Because reduced supply. They're all going
Speaker 1: to the migrants and they get these fancy contracts with FEMA.
Speaker 1: Probably USA is in there too, but FEMA, they raked
Speaker 1: in over a billion dollars in taxpayer funds according to
Speaker 1: these internal documents. This is disgusting. This needs to stop.
Speaker 1: Elon Trump demanding a clawback. I mean, it's all happening
Speaker 1: as you look at this headline from a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks ago. FEMA had to kick out hurricane survivors out
Speaker 1: of temporary housing.
Speaker 1: Into snowstorms and freezing temperatures, my gosh, Craig's Ellsworth, thank you,
Speaker 1: Craig Ellsworth. I will get to your comment as well.
Speaker 1: FEMA is kicking out the people, the Americans that need
Speaker 1: the housing, and they're sending billions of dollars to luxury
Speaker 1: hotels in New York City to house illegal migrants. What
Speaker 1: is this? Honestly, what is this? This guy's furious. I
Speaker 1: want to introduce you to Cameron Hilton. He's the interim
Speaker 1: head of FEMA right now. Trump put him in the spot.
Speaker 1: Gary Hammers, thank you as well. I'm gonna get to
Speaker 1: everybody's super chat. I promise you, Gary Hammers, thank you
Speaker 1: for your generosity. So Cameron's like, OK, what the heck?
Speaker 1: What the heck indeed, I want to thank the Doge team,
Speaker 1: he writes for making me aware of this. Effective yesterday
Speaker 1: these payments have been suspended from FEMA personnel will be
Speaker 1: held accountable. He's telling Elon Musk, so.
Speaker 1: You better believe it. They got to be held accountable.
Speaker 1: I mean they know they're not supposed to do this,
Speaker 1: and yet they sent $59 million last week. Last week,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's in office. This is happening while he's there.
Speaker 1: Imagine then, imagine how much they were sending during the
Speaker 1: Biden time, and we know $200 million 200 million dollars
Speaker 1: went to a Pakistani hotel group or a hotel, I
Speaker 1: should say that would be the.
Speaker 1: Roosevelt Hotel in midtown Manhattan wants a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Speaker 1: hotel it's been taken over by migrants and well you
Speaker 1: know it's like a payday for the Pakistani government.
Speaker 1: Because they're getting $200 million of taxpayer money for this.
Speaker 1: I mean this is unbelievable, you guys, it's unbelievable. It's disgusting,
Speaker 1: it's wrong, and this has to change and it's going
Speaker 1: to change. I'm gonna tell you how it's gonna change.
Speaker 1: Quick shout out here to 76 research, 76 research spirits filled.
Speaker 1: Thank you again. I'm gonna get to this, um, code
Speaker 1: word dollar. You should use code word dollar. It's my
Speaker 1: financial research company that I started with a dear friend.
Speaker 1: Spent decades on Wall Street running billions of dollars. We,
Speaker 1: we share a similar sensibility. I'll leave it at that
Speaker 1: in terms of the political situation. Rob Horton, you've seen
Speaker 1: him on the show before, and I just wanted to
Speaker 1: shout this out. If you go to 76research.com, you can
Speaker 1: use code word dollar and get the 76 report, tons
Speaker 1: of information in there for just $1 a month for
Speaker 1: the first two months, and it goes to 995. But anyway,
Speaker 1: let me go over to some of these comments here.
Speaker 1: This is wonderful. Um thank you again for uh real
Speaker 1: truth thank you at RealTruth who who's just saying, God
Speaker 1: bless me. Thank you. I appreciate that. It's very, very
Speaker 1: kind of you. And then, um, over to Craig Ellsworth.
Speaker 1: I'm keeping up the fight, you know it, Craig, thank
Speaker 1: you so much for your generosity as well. I really, really,
Speaker 1: really do appreciate it. And then, um, let me see,
Speaker 1: you know, we were talking about whether or not Radcliffe
Speaker 1: and the CIA should be going after. I think the
Speaker 1: FBI is gonna be able to do the job. I
Speaker 1: really do.
Speaker 1: Um, Steve, and I think also that it, it's gonna
Speaker 1: be good to have this exposure from Doge like I
Speaker 1: wanna see the money, you know, like again I go
Speaker 1: back to my business reporting and I really think it's
Speaker 1: critical to understand where all the money is flowing, where
Speaker 1: it's going. I mean one of the things that I
Speaker 1: was so perplexed by over the course of the last
Speaker 1: 8 years is all the money that, well, I didn't
Speaker 1: know this at the time.
Speaker 1: I did not know that at the time. Oh, spirit filled,
Speaker 1: thank you so much. He's trying to push for the
Speaker 1: independent creators. We're not all gonna be independent. Did you
Speaker 1: see the story? I'll get to that later. We'll do
Speaker 1: a big thing on it tomorrow, but I guess, uh,
Speaker 1: the company that sells Megyn Kelly, Bill O'Reilly, and Tucker show.
Speaker 1: It just got bought by Fox, so they're coming full circle.
Speaker 1: The whole gangs going back to Fox, and it's kind
Speaker 1: of disappointing, right, because then you think to yourself, hey,
Speaker 1: who's really independent if Fox is realizing, gee, we really,
Speaker 1: really messed up. We let these folks go and then
Speaker 1: what do you know? Trump's back in power so we
Speaker 1: don't have the same kind of advertising pressure that we
Speaker 1: used to maybe, maybe we got to rethink this and
Speaker 1: so they're bringing them back into the fold. They still
Speaker 1: own their shows.
Speaker 1: But Fox is going to sell their shows and let
Speaker 1: me just say those that control the purse have an
Speaker 1: awful lot of control over everything else. Steve Fishman, thank
Speaker 1: you so much. Um, it, it, it's really, it's great
Speaker 1: to have such a supportive bunch. We can talk about
Speaker 1: that a little bit later, but I'll tell you this,
Speaker 1: you know what? US aid.
Speaker 1: US aid is.
Speaker 1: Getting exposed and though they, you know, they got in
Speaker 1: order to like slow down for 7 days, it's getting
Speaker 1: exposed in a way that the American public really really appreciates.
Speaker 1: This is what resonates right now. Do you see they're
Speaker 1: taking down the letters there at the US aid building.
Speaker 1: This happened on Friday and Democrats are losing it. Oh
Speaker 1: my gosh, they're losing it and I'm like, but why
Speaker 1: are you guys losing it? Like what is it that's
Speaker 1: really at stake?
Speaker 1: I wanna show you what David Sachs had to say.
Speaker 1: David Sachs is the crypto czar. He's really smart. He started,
Speaker 1: you know, he's part of that PayPal Mafia with Peter
Speaker 1: Thiel and with Elon. He's conservative and he's, he's like,
Speaker 1: my gosh, you look at where this money was going
Speaker 1: and it, well, let's just say it explains a lot.
Speaker 1: OK, so we knew the US government runs a $2
Speaker 1: trillion deficit every year. We're in debt almost $40 trillion
Speaker 1: and we also knew that anytime anyone tries to cut
Speaker 1: anything in Washington, the whole city screams bloody murder. OK,
Speaker 1: so the question is just why? Well, now we know
Speaker 1: the money is all going to them. It's like round
Speaker 1: tripping to them. New York Times getting paid.
Speaker 1: Politico getting paid. Bill Kristol, perennial warmonger, getting paid. Ukraine
Speaker 1: getting paid like 11 out of 12 publications in Ukraine
Speaker 1: getting paid. Incredible. Viktor Orban, who's the Prime Minister of Hungary,
Speaker 1: was saying that he's very popular in Hungary. His political
Speaker 1: opposition funded by USAID.
Speaker 1: In Poland, the left-wing political opposition funded by USAID and
Speaker 1: on and on and on it goes. BBC BBC, you
Speaker 1: wonder why everyone in the UK is so, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: like the BBC is getting paid. Every left-wing organization in
Speaker 1: the world seems to be getting paid by this slush
Speaker 1: fund at USAID which disburses about $50 billion a year.
Speaker 1: That's a billion dollars a week. That's actually a lot
Speaker 1: of money.
Speaker 1: And so it just, it makes you wonder, you know,
Speaker 1: the left in general tries to portray itself as a
Speaker 1: movement of the people that it's grassroots. This is the
Speaker 1: exact opposite. This is astroturf. This is basically money coming
Speaker 1: from the top down out of Washington to fund all
Speaker 1: these groups, maybe not even in the United States, like
Speaker 1: all over the world, so.
Speaker 1: It makes you wonder what is the real level of
Speaker 1: local support for these left wing policies all over the world. Well,
Speaker 1: I think we just learned the lesson there the answer
Speaker 1: to that, right? There's not a lot of support. There's
Speaker 1: not a lot of support, certainly not here in the
Speaker 1: United States of America, because otherwise, guess who would have
Speaker 1: been president would've been Kamala Harrison, boy.
Speaker 1: That would have been bad, but she seemed he said.
Speaker 1: I mean, he even mentioned Bill Kristol. Bill Kristol, who's
Speaker 1: the like, you know, conservative never Trumper, that one kind
Speaker 1: of surprised me, so I was like, wait a second,
Speaker 1: Bill Kristol was getting money too, apparently he has an
Speaker 1: organization that was funded in part through the Rockefeller philanthropy
Speaker 1: advisors which was funded by.
Speaker 1: US Global Aid. The BBC, my gosh, the BBC getting 8%
Speaker 1: of its income.
Speaker 1: 8% of its income.
Speaker 1: I'm like from us, so we're pushing this and then
Speaker 1: it gets worse. Politico, you guys, I, I, I know
Speaker 1: I've showed you this before, but you gotta see it
Speaker 1: again because this is just amazing to me. $8.2 million
Speaker 1: in subscriptions. What kind of subscriptions were these political pro subscriptions?
Speaker 1: They cost $10,000 a piece and you look at those numbers.
Speaker 1: When did they start raking it in? 0, 2020. That's
Speaker 1: when the yellow line goes up.
Speaker 1: And then it goes up, up and away until you
Speaker 1: get to 2024 and wow, they're really, really rigging it
Speaker 1: in 2024. Hey, they were still paying them up until
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. Take a look at the
Speaker 1: numbers from January. So thank goodness somebody figured this out.
Speaker 1: These people have been all on the take and why
Speaker 1: do you think the New York Times and Politico and
Speaker 1: everybody else has been so worked up?
Speaker 1: Other than, oh they stood to lose a ton of
Speaker 1: cash if US Global Aid and who knows what else
Speaker 1: because I'm gonna get into some more numbers. You get
Speaker 1: The New York Times raking in some $50 million.04 million
Speaker 1: dollars in the month of August alone. They got a
Speaker 1: lot of that money from HHS.
Speaker 1: They got the money from the health department that you
Speaker 1: no wonder, no wonder everybody loved Fauci, for goodness sakes,
Speaker 1: that was bought and paid for journalism. That's what you
Speaker 1: call that bought and paid for journalism, right? I'll tell
Speaker 1: you where you're not gonna pay $10,000 a month for
Speaker 1: a subscription and you will actually get very good information
Speaker 1: and my financial research company, 76 Research. Go check out
Speaker 1: the model portfolios over there. We have a resilience portfolio
Speaker 1: and inflation protection portfolio and.
Speaker 1: We have an income builder portfolio because you know you
Speaker 1: want to retire one day, right? Check all that out
Speaker 1: right now. Join this MAGA movement, right? Invest in America,
Speaker 1: invest in yourself. Go to 76research.com. So there will be
Speaker 1: no more Department of Education if Donald Trump has anything
Speaker 1: to say about it. This is kind of upsetting to
Speaker 1: one Maxine Waters who got the news on Friday somehow
Speaker 1: and tried to demand a meeting.
Speaker 1: With Linda McMahon, who's now our new head of Department
Speaker 1: of Education, of course her job if she does it
Speaker 1: successfully is to unwind the Department of Education, which has
Speaker 1: been there all since the 1970s with none other than
Speaker 1: Jimmy Carter. So Maxine heard about this and she lost
Speaker 1: it and I just say, you know what?
Speaker 1: This guy deserves an award. This is the security guard
Speaker 1: putting up with Maxine Waters. I can watch. Look them
Speaker 1: in the eye. Come on, hold your face up. Look
Speaker 1: at him. Let him see you. This is him. Look
Speaker 1: at it. What's your name? Tell us your name. Give
Speaker 1: me that ID again. So what I showed you the ID.
Speaker 1: You do what? I showed you. Could you let me
Speaker 1: see the ID again, huh? No. Will someone else ask
Speaker 1: him for the ID? Will you ask him for it?
Speaker 1: He won't let me see it again. You see it.
Speaker 1: I didn't see it.
Speaker 1: What a good guy, right? He's just like, no, no,
Speaker 1: you can't come in. I've locked the building. You don't
Speaker 1: have an appointment. You can't come in. And Maxine's losing it.
Speaker 1: You see a lot of people are losing it right now.
Speaker 1: They don't like the idea of the Department of Education
Speaker 1: going away, but Donald Trump once again here he is
Speaker 1: trying to pare this down and say, you know what,
Speaker 1: maybe the states do a better job at this, just
Speaker 1: like with FEMA, maybe the states do a better job
Speaker 1: at allocating capital because they have a better sense of
Speaker 1: where it's needed. Well, immediately.
Speaker 1: They're going with this is somehow that this is a
Speaker 1: racist thing that you know black students are gonna be
Speaker 1: at a disadvantage if the education department is shuttered and
Speaker 1: let me give you their explanation for it here. They
Speaker 1: say educators warned that the loss of the federal agency
Speaker 1: will exasperate racial disparities in schools across the nation, including
Speaker 1: in universities and colleges quote since 2020 there have been some.
Speaker 1: True coordination and attacks on public education as we know it,
Speaker 1: and I think the current administration is challenging what it
Speaker 1: means for us to provide a public education for all students,
Speaker 1: says this one Julissa Evans, founder and CEO of the
Speaker 1: Black Educator Advocates Network, to the hill.
Speaker 1: But you know, Trump's saying, wait a second, like we're
Speaker 1: not doing a very good job with this. Clearly, the
Speaker 1: Department of Education doesn't seem to know what it's doing
Speaker 1: because we rank really poorly every year, like we get
Speaker 1: worse and worse and worse. It's gotten worse since COVID.
Speaker 1: And so maybe there's a better way to think about this.
Speaker 1: Maybe it shouldn't be all top down maybe you shouldn't
Speaker 1: have a big blow to government maybe you find a
Speaker 1: way for the states to take more responsibility in terms
Speaker 1: of educating their kids wouldn't that make sense to you?
Speaker 1: Makes sense to me. Well, they're furious they're furious and
Speaker 1: they're saying, you know what, we're gonna shut down the
Speaker 1: government over this, which I find kind of ironic because.
Speaker 1: I think Donald Trump and Elon Musk by the way,
Speaker 1: and Doge would be just delighted if they shut down
Speaker 1: the government for a little bit and save some money.
Speaker 1: My next question because your colleague Jeff Merkley basically said
Speaker 1: he's prepared to try to shut down the government over
Speaker 1: some of these uh sledgehammer actions that he's seen by
Speaker 1: Elon Musk. Are you prepared to shut down the government
Speaker 1: to join Democratic colleagues who want to stand in the
Speaker 1: way of keeping the government open? Well, you have to
Speaker 1: look at what the Trump administration is doing right now.
Speaker 1: They are simply trying to they are simply trying to
Speaker 1: they are simply trying to dismantle the government.
Speaker 1: So yes, look, if we have to take steps to
Speaker 1: be able to hold them accountable, we use the leverage
Speaker 1: that we have to force it, I cannot support efforts
Speaker 1: that will continue this lawlessness that we're seeing when it
Speaker 1: comes to this administration's actions and for us to be
Speaker 1: able to support government funding in that way only for
Speaker 1: them to turn it around to dismantle the government, that
Speaker 1: is not something that should be allowed. So just to
Speaker 1: be clear, Senator, you are open to voting yes to
Speaker 1: shut down the government, to make this point. This is
Speaker 1: on them. This is about.
Speaker 1: Whether or not they can get the votes, they are
Speaker 1: the majority and if they cannot govern, then then you
Speaker 1: know that's for the American people to see but I've
Speaker 1: worked in government. I've worked through multiple government shutdowns. I
Speaker 1: would be the last person to want to get to
Speaker 1: that stage, but we are at a point where we
Speaker 1: are basically on the cusp of a constitutional crisis, seeing
Speaker 1: this administration taking steps that are so clearly illegal, and
Speaker 1: until we see a change in that behavior we should
Speaker 1: not allow and condone that, nor should we assist in that.
Speaker 1: Senator, I hate to break it to you, senator, and
Speaker 1: that's the junior senator from New Jersey that replaced the
Speaker 1: super corrupt one remember Menendez? I hate to break it
Speaker 1: to you, but you know what people appreciate this right now.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get to his approval ratings in a second,
Speaker 1: but that they appreciate this because you know what they're
Speaker 1: sick and tired and they're hard earned money going nowhere.
Speaker 1: We got a mess of a society right now. We
Speaker 1: got nothing to show for all those taxpayer dollars that
Speaker 1: are being spent. Just look at. You go back to
Speaker 1: the Department of Education where we stand in the world
Speaker 1: and the lousy rankings. Listen, it's got to change.
Speaker 1: And the media has to change. I mean, I cannot
Speaker 1: believe I'm still like I'm just stunned by this, OK guys,
Speaker 1: because look, I worked in mainstream media my whole career.
Speaker 1: They definitely keep the sales department separate from the editorial
Speaker 1: department so you don't know right what they're selling, how
Speaker 1: they're selling, or where the money comes in, you just
Speaker 1: collect a paycheck every week.
Speaker 1: And I, I'm learning this now thanks to Doge how
Speaker 1: much money these organizations were collecting and it's really, really,
Speaker 1: really disgusting.
Speaker 1: I mean, uh, the whole, the whole kitten caboodle, right?
Speaker 1: They were all in on it. Again, going back to
Speaker 1: what David Sachs, crypto Chief said. OK, so we knew
Speaker 1: the US government runs a $2 trillion deficit every year.
Speaker 1: We're in debt almost $40 trillion. And we also knew
Speaker 1: that anytime anyone tries to cut anything in Washington, the
Speaker 1: whole city screams bloody murder. OK, so the question is
Speaker 1: just why? Well, now we know the money is all
Speaker 1: going to them. It's like round tripping to them.
Speaker 1: New York Times getting paid. Politico getting paid. Bill Kristol,
Speaker 1: perennial warmonger getting paid. Ukraine getting paid like a I
Speaker 1: mean that's the crazy thing, right? All this money, whether
Speaker 1: it be the Politico subscriptions at $10,000 a year for
Speaker 1: a total of $8.2 million across 236 subscriptions, you know,
Speaker 1: this was like robo stuff. Nobody even asked for these subscriptions.
Speaker 1: Apparently nobody even used them. Here's the guy, uh, Sam
Speaker 1: Lyman who used to work in the Senate.
Speaker 1: He's like, OK, when I worked in the Senate, we
Speaker 1: had Politico by default, never signed up for it, so
Speaker 1: I can only assume it was a blanket deal. Politico
Speaker 1: had worked out with the federal government. I never used it,
Speaker 1: not even once, got zero value at it, and yet
Speaker 1: it was costing you and me and everybody else in
Speaker 1: this country $10,000 for that one terminal.
Speaker 1: Or that one subscription, it wasn't even a terminal. I'm
Speaker 1: thinking about Bloomberg for goodness sakes, which at least has
Speaker 1: a little value with it, but so why were they
Speaker 1: doing this? Could it be that they want to have
Speaker 1: somebody in their back pocket, you know, so when 51X
Speaker 1: spooks wanna come out and lie.
Speaker 1: And say something that's totally not true and manipulate the
Speaker 1: conversation they have a place to go and do it.
Speaker 1: Spirit filled, thank you so much. Oh my gosh, you're,
Speaker 1: you're so, so generous. Thank you, everyone. I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: to all your comments and make sure that we read them,
Speaker 1: but I appreciate it. Yes, independent media here, definitely independent. I'll,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not getting anything from the New York Times.
Speaker 1: Forgive me, I'm not getting anything from.
Speaker 1: Uh, let's see, health and human services $26.9 million.27 million
Speaker 1: dollars from these guys. The National Science Foundation, $19 million.
Speaker 1: This is the New York Times. How is the New
Speaker 1: York Times even going to exist because nobody wants to
Speaker 1: read it. The subscriptions are down. How are they going
Speaker 1: to function without all this crazy, crazy money coming in from.
Speaker 1: The US government and USAid Associated Press, well they got
Speaker 1: nearly 20 million. You get Politico all in they're talking
Speaker 1: about 34 million and Reuters getting $9,220,000 from the State Department.
Speaker 1: I am sorry, there is something messed up when the
Speaker 1: BBC has to account for 8% of its income humming
Speaker 1: directly from the United States of America's global aid, our
Speaker 1: taxpayer dollar.
Speaker 1: And when you got this kind of uptick happening in political,
Speaker 1: this is the biggest story and nobody's talking about this.
Speaker 1: Nobody's talking about this. You know why? Because they're all
Speaker 1: in on it. You don't see it anywhere and instead
Speaker 1: it's somehow wrong of Elon to be exposing it and
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer says we're gonna fight this fight. I am
Speaker 1: going to stand with you in this fight and we
Speaker 1: will win.
Speaker 1: We will win what? No, I'm sorry. You know what's
Speaker 1: gonna win? Being on the side of the people, not
Speaker 1: wasting our money with all the stupid stuff. Oh, don't
Speaker 1: get me started. $2 million for.
Speaker 1: Operations down in Guatemala, a trans comic book in Peru.
Speaker 1: DEI plays and musicals in Ireland, a trans opera in Colombia.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I mean like what kind of agenda
Speaker 1: these people have? People don't even like this agenda here
Speaker 1: in the states and you guys are trying to push
Speaker 1: it all over the world. Why?
Speaker 1: This is getting exposed and America loves it. America loves
Speaker 1: it and they're with Trump on this 1000%. CNN even
Speaker 1: admits it. Describing what is currently the dumbest strategy in politics,
Speaker 1: which is Democrats taking the 20% side of every 80/20
Speaker 1: issue in America.
Speaker 1: USAID people want this pared down. They want to streamlined.
Speaker 1: They want to know where the money is going. Democrats
Speaker 1: have a meltdown today. Donald Trump signs an executive order
Speaker 1: on keeping boys out of girls sports. Democrats take the
Speaker 1: 20 side of that issue as well. All these issues,
Speaker 1: this is like Trump's superpower, finding a bunch of 80/20 issues,
Speaker 1: getting on the 80, and everybody who's sort of reflexively
Speaker 1: against him gets on the 20 and
Speaker 1: Now the Democratic Party has like a 31% approval rating.
Speaker 1: This is why. Yeah, this is why, quick shout for
Speaker 1: friends over bounce of nature before we get to this
Speaker 1: amazing news on CBS. I mean, he's gonna take down
Speaker 1: CBS News. Mark my words. I mean it is bad. Anyway,
Speaker 1: you know it's not bad. My, my health, my disposition,
Speaker 1: my fortunately.
Speaker 1: The ability to not get a cold this year like I,
Speaker 1: I do almost inevitably every single winter and I actually
Speaker 1: credit Balance of Nature, one of our sponsors here on
Speaker 1: the show with some of this because now I'm taking

Speaker 1: to take the fruits and veggies, but they have a
Speaker 1: whole bunch of stuff. You should check it out today,
Speaker 1: thousands of testimonials. I'm not the only one, and Balance
Speaker 1: of Nature is the name of the company, Balance of Nature.com.
Speaker 1: I will say this, you know what? Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: He has exposed an Elon Musk credit to him and
Speaker 1: his whiz kids, you know, that they, they hate and
Speaker 1: they've said all kinds of things about and I love
Speaker 1: it because Elon and Com they're like doubling down. They're like,
Speaker 1: bring it on, bring it on, um, they just, they
Speaker 1: like race straight into the fire. They're not afraid. Well,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is doubling his lawsuit against CBS News, you
Speaker 1: know how he was uh suing them for $10 billion.
Speaker 1: Donald Trump has just upped his lawsuit to $20 billion
Speaker 1: against CBS News. He's amending it in different ways as well.
Speaker 1: He's amending the 60 Minutes lawsuit. He's demanding $20 billion.
Speaker 1: I mean they don't have it, let's be honest, Paramount,
Speaker 1: the parent company, it's worth some $8 billion in its
Speaker 1: trading today and so you know I'm telling you.
Speaker 1: Uh, it, it, this, this company's sort of gonzo if
Speaker 1: he's successful in this, what he ultimately settles for, I
Speaker 1: don't know, like employees are furious that they're even entertaining
Speaker 1: the idea of settlement, but he's amended it and he's
Speaker 1: amended in kind of an interesting way. So he's no
Speaker 1: longer using the First Amendment right now with CBS. He's
Speaker 1: actually arguing that CBS stood to benefit financially should Harris
Speaker 1: have been elected, so that makes me wonder.
Speaker 1: That makes me wonder he's steering the case, by the way,
Speaker 1: away from the First Amendment grounds he's putting it on
Speaker 1: the fact that quote, it does not hinge on free
Speaker 1: speech arguments because CBS allegedly had business motivations to make
Speaker 1: Harris appear stronger CBS is not commenting, but this amended complaint,
Speaker 1: which actually includes his doctor as well out of Texas,
Speaker 1: is extremely interesting.
Speaker 1: Extremely interesting because I'm sort of wondering well did did CBS,
Speaker 1: were they like in on the deal too were they
Speaker 1: like were they like the New York Times? Were they
Speaker 1: like Politico? Were they getting some kind of handout from
Speaker 1: these big groups? Was all of network media, all of
Speaker 1: legacy media on the payroll? I mean at that point
Speaker 1: they're state media and they're not even telling you, at
Speaker 1: least NPR.
Speaker 1: PBS had the decency to say, you know, we get
Speaker 1: some of our money taxpayer funds. These guys don't tell
Speaker 1: you that. I don't know with 60 60 Minutes and
Speaker 1: I don't know with CBS, but clearly they had some
Speaker 1: sort of agenda, which is what he keeps pointing to,
Speaker 1: you know, you know the, the clip. I'm gonna show
Speaker 1: you the original clip that was played on Face the
Speaker 1: Nation and then the, the not so swift producers I guess.
Speaker 1: They allowed that to air unedited on Face the Nation
Speaker 1: and then it showed up looking kind of different on
Speaker 1: 60 Minutes. But it seems that uh Prime Minister Netanyahu
Speaker 1: is not listening. Well, Bill,
Speaker 1: The work that we have done has resulted in a
Speaker 1: number of
Speaker 1: Movements in that region by Israel that were very much
Speaker 1: prompted by or a result of many things including our
Speaker 1: advocacy for what needs to happen in the region. But
Speaker 1: it seems that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not listening. We
Speaker 1: are not going to stop pursuing what is necessary for
Speaker 1: the United States to be clear about where we stand
Speaker 1: on the need for this war to end.
Speaker 1: Can you imagine if we had to sit through the
Speaker 1: unedited versions of Kamala Harris for 4 years? I mean,
Speaker 1: that would have been just disastrous. And of course, then
Speaker 1: there's this biggie, maybe I don't play the whole thing,
Speaker 1: but remember Leslie Stahl insisting that somehow that that. You know,
Speaker 1: this is 60 Minutes.
Speaker 1: And we can't put on things we can't verify it
Speaker 1: on because it's bad for Biden. We can't put on
Speaker 1: things we can't verify what you told me when I
Speaker 1: asked why you keep saying you said to me, I
Speaker 1: say that because I need to discredit you so that
Speaker 1: when you say negative things about me, I don't have
Speaker 1: to discreditcredited yourself. You told me you've discredited yourself when
Speaker 1: you say that.
Speaker 1: You're not gonna cover Biden. You're gonna ask him what
Speaker 1: flavor ice cream he has, OK? Instead of why did
Speaker 1: Hunter get $3.5 million from Moscow, instead of why is
Speaker 1: an energy company paying your son $183,000 a month or
Speaker 1: whatever they're paying him, and he has no experience in energy,
Speaker 1: you know, you discredit yourself. I don't have to discredit.
Speaker 1: So this story about Hunter and his laptop.
Speaker 1: Some repair shop found it. The source is Steve Bannon
Speaker 1: and Rudy Giuliani. I don't know anything about that. I
Speaker 1: just know it's a laptop and you're making this.
Speaker 1: One of the hottest, most important issues in the It's
Speaker 1: a very important issue to find out whether or not
Speaker 1: a man's corrupt who's running for president, who's accepted money
Speaker 1: from China and from Ukraine and from Russia. I think
Speaker 1: it's incredible the way you can try and say this
Speaker 1: and sit there and look me in the eye and say.
Speaker 1: He accepted his family from Russia, from Ukraine, from China,
Speaker 1: and from other places. His brother, who didn't have experience,
Speaker 1: became a big builder in Iraq without that experience. Take
Speaker 1: a look at what's going on, Leslie.
Speaker 1: And then you say that shouldn't be discussed. I'm saying
Speaker 1: it's the biggest scandal out there, Leslie, and you don't
Speaker 1: cover it because it can't be verified insignificant things. I'm
Speaker 1: telling you, of course it can be verified. Excuse me,
Speaker 1: they found the laptop, Leslie Leslie.
Speaker 1: What can't be verified the laptop you said.
Speaker 1: Amazing, right? So you wonder why he's doubling the lawsuit
Speaker 1: to 20 billion against 60 minutes and possibly putting them
Speaker 1: out of business. We'll see. I mean, ABC came to
Speaker 1: a settlement.
Speaker 1: Remember that one some $16 million.15 dollars for the presidential library,
Speaker 1: and another $1 million to cover the legal funds. Mark
Speaker 1: Zuckerberg came to a $25 million settlement with Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: So what does CBS do here? Don't forget the FCC
Speaker 1: has a lot.
Speaker 1: Out of sway over CBS's future, Paramount being the parent
Speaker 1: company of CBS, like I said, where some $8 billion
Speaker 1: is trying to do a merger with Sky Dance. Sky
Speaker 1: Dance is owned by Larry Ellison. Oh, Larry Ellison, who's
Speaker 1: actually Trump's buddy. So like they want that deal to
Speaker 1: go through.
Speaker 1: And yet the FCC may actually get in the way
Speaker 1: of that because they'll say no, no, we have the
Speaker 1: power over the affiliation, the CBS affiliates and whether or
Speaker 1: not that affiliation continues so it's very convoluted. Donald Trump
Speaker 1: definitely has the upper hand and let's face it, CBS
Speaker 1: may have been.
Speaker 1: That's what we're gonna find out like many other news
Speaker 1: organizations on the take, and that's why you're not hearing
Speaker 1: about it. I mean, I cannot believe how no one
Speaker 1: is covering this story, no one's covering it, but there's
Speaker 1: a reason for that, as they say.
Speaker 1: CBS was forced to admit this is amazing, forced to
Speaker 1: admit that Donald Trump's doing a little bit better than
Speaker 1: anyone had previously thought. More on that starting in a second,
Speaker 1: but first, quick shout out to our excellent, excellent research
Speaker 1: at 76 Research. You can get this at 76research.com just
Speaker 1: to look at some of our top holdings there and
Speaker 1: all the success they have had. You can see some
Speaker 1: of these companies up 32%.
Speaker 1: 9% right on down the list. This is in our
Speaker 1: three portfolios American resilience inflection inflation protection and income builder.
Speaker 1: You can find out more today. Look at these companies.
Speaker 1: 10 to 15 stocks in each one of these model
Speaker 1: portfolios at 76 research today, but I will say this,
Speaker 1: I will say this, by the way, Paramount is not
Speaker 1: one of them. Heads up. CBS is kind of having
Speaker 1: to eat its.
Speaker 1: Lunch a little bit here um they're in the middle
Speaker 1: of this lawsuit with Donald Trump. He's suing them, doubling
Speaker 1: it to $20 billion which would put them out of business.
Speaker 1: They would have been out of business at $10 billion
Speaker 1: and it's all happening as they conduct a new poll
Speaker 1: and are forced to admit this on television. You can
Speaker 1: just imagine this must have killed them, really. Our CBS
Speaker 1: poll finds that a majority of Americans, 53%, approve of
Speaker 1: the job he's doing.
Speaker 1: That's a better approval number than he ever reached during
Speaker 1: his first term in the White House. Joining us with
Speaker 1: more is our executive director of elections and surveys, Anthony Salvoto.
Speaker 1: Good to see you, Anthony. What's driving this? I will
Speaker 1: keep it simple, Margaret. He's doing in the eyes of
Speaker 1: the public what he said he would do in the campaign.
Speaker 1: There's political value in that. In fact, 70% of people
Speaker 1: say he's doing what he promised. That's whether they approve
Speaker 1: of him or not. Now.
Speaker 1: There's another part of this that continues over from the campaign.
Speaker 1: There were words that he was described as being tough,
Speaker 1: being energetic, and he still is today in big majority numbers.
Speaker 1: So as people take a look in these first few weeks,
Speaker 1: there's been a lot of activity. They're getting that general
Speaker 1: sense of governance and that's being reflected in these early numbers.
Speaker 1: So that's perception. What about the actual policies? Well, let's
Speaker 1: start with the ones that are
Speaker 1: Popular and again these echo a lot of what we
Speaker 1: saw in the campaign. The idea of deporting those in
Speaker 1: the country illegally continues to be popular. We saw that
Speaker 1: in the campaign, sending troops to the US-Mexico border again,
Speaker 1: majority in favor. We've seen that in the campaign. For
Speaker 1: his supporters in particular, the focus on ending DEI is popular.
Speaker 1: We had seen in the campaign a lot of them
Speaker 1: thought those processes had gone too far.
Speaker 1: Mm, but guess what, he's doing everything that he promised.
Speaker 1: Imagine that. Think about this. I mean how many election
Speaker 1: cycles have you been in and somebody comes in and
Speaker 1: they say I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna do that,
Speaker 1: hope and change Obama, right? And nothing changes. In fact,
Speaker 1: all that hope and change has created greater and greater division.
Speaker 1: So instead of bringing the country together as he promised,
Speaker 1: what did he do? He divided the country. He leaned
Speaker 1: into all the race baiting, etc. and we wound up
Speaker 1: worse off for it.
Speaker 1: Well, Donald Trump is like, OK, I'm gonna fix this.
Speaker 1: I'm the CEO I'm gonna put this into like real
Speaker 1: shape like a business and he's doing it in real
Speaker 1: time and even CNN has to admit now it's going
Speaker 1: pretty well as far as the American public is concerned.
Speaker 1: Check it out. I think one of the things that's
Speaker 1: so important for politicians is for folks to believe what
Speaker 1: they're saying and that they're keeping their campaign promises. So
Speaker 1: I think this gives you a pretty gosh darn good
Speaker 1: idea of what may be going on.
Speaker 1: Trump's doing what he promised to do. You go back
Speaker 1: to April of 2017, it was just 46% of all
Speaker 1: Americans who said that Trump was doing what he promised
Speaker 1: to do. Compare that now to February of 2025. You know,
Speaker 1: there was a good show that was on during the
Speaker 1: 1990s called A Different World. That is what's going on
Speaker 1: right now. We're living in a different world. 70% of
Speaker 1: Americans say Trump is doing what he promised to do again,
Speaker 1: compare that.
Speaker 1: April of 2017, when it's just 46%, when Americans are
Speaker 1: 24 points more likely to say that you're doing what
Speaker 1: you promised to do, it's no wonder that your net
Speaker 1: approval rating is much more likely to be on the
Speaker 1: positive side of the ledger than on the negative side.
Speaker 1: And so far what we're seeing again is Americans 21
Speaker 1: days so far versus just 11 days during his entire
Speaker 1: first term that Trump has a positive net approval rating,
Speaker 1: quite a different world, quite a different world. I love it.
Speaker 1: Different world. Barefoot Garner, thank you for your generosity. So,
Speaker 1: so appreciate it. A different world and as I said,
Speaker 1: it's a world that people respond to. They're like, you
Speaker 1: know what, at least he's doing what he promised and
Speaker 1: he's doing it at lightning speed and now we know,
Speaker 1: we know what was going on. We know. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's the 80/20 thing describing what is currently the dumbest
Speaker 1: strategy in politics, which is Democrats taking the 20% side
Speaker 1: of every 80/20 issue in America.
Speaker 1: USAID people want this pared down. They want to streamlined.
Speaker 1: They want to know where the money is going. Democrats
Speaker 1: have a meltdown today. Donald Trump signs executive order on
Speaker 1: keeping boys out of girls sports. Democrats take the 20
Speaker 1: side of that issue as well. All these issues, this
Speaker 1: is like Trump's superpower, finding a bunch of 80/20 issues,
Speaker 1: getting on the 80, and everybody who's sort of reflexively
Speaker 1: against him gets on the 20. And now the Democratic
Speaker 1: Party has like a 31% approval rating. This is why
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 1: This, this is why, exactly why, and it's why if
Speaker 1: you look at what happened at Super Bowl 59, Donald
Speaker 1: Trump just lit up the house, lit up the house
Speaker 1: while interestingly Taylor Swift got booed, yeah, booed.
Speaker 1: No
Speaker 1: She's like, what's going on?
Speaker 1: What, what's going on? I mean, are they talking about me?
Speaker 1: Are they talking about me? You can see the expression
Speaker 1: on her face. She's looking over. She realizes that they
Speaker 1: are booing her, you know, I'll tell you there's something
Speaker 1: to be said about Taylor Swift and all that we've
Speaker 1: put up with from Taylor Swift with how she effectively
Speaker 1: looked down on Trump supporters. One of her famous videos.
Speaker 1: You need to come down depicted Trump supporters like this. OK,
Speaker 1: so like somehow they're just a bunch of rural, you know,
Speaker 1: no goods in Taylor Swift's eyes and then she had
Speaker 1: this to say in one of her documentaries. Taylor Swift
Speaker 1: comes out against Trump. I don't care if they write that.
Speaker 1: I'm sad that I didn't 2 years ago, but I
Speaker 1: can't change that.
Speaker 1: I'm saying right now that this is something that I
Speaker 1: know is right and you guys, I need to be
Speaker 1: on the right side of history. And if he doesn't win,
Speaker 1: then at least I, at least I tried. I just
Speaker 1: want to read you what I wrote and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: try to start. I just really want you to know
Speaker 1: that this is important to me.
Speaker 1: So you wonder why this happened.
Speaker 1: You wonder why this happens.
Speaker 1: But Donald Trump kind of enjoyed it. 00 yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: she's apparently not a very nice person either because she
Speaker 1: didn't invite her best friend to the Super Bowl this year. Um,
Speaker 1: that's neither here nor there. I suspect the other friend
Speaker 1: is not a very nice person either, but what I
Speaker 1: would say is this Donald Trump is out there.
Speaker 1: Speaking for the people, and he got this huge reception.
Speaker 1: Unfortunately I can't show you because it has music in it,
Speaker 1: you know, they got rules about all this music. Someone
Speaker 1: was singing the national anthem. I did not like the
Speaker 1: rendition of the national anthem. I'm just gonna get that
Speaker 1: out there. I'm a traditionalist. We need a traditional national anthem. Mhm. Anyway,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump seemed to enjoy that he got this.
Speaker 1: Flaws and she got all the boos and he said
Speaker 1: this on social media, the only one that had a
Speaker 1: tougher night than the Kansas City Chiefs was Taylor Swift.
Speaker 1: She got booed out of the stadium. MAGA is very
Speaker 1: unforgiving indeed. The MAGA movement is about Americans putting America
Speaker 1: first and.
Speaker 1: I'm kind of wondering if Taylor Swift would get a
Speaker 1: little of that US Global aid as well, right? I mean,
Speaker 1: everybody was in on the take and thus they all
Speaker 1: said the same thing over and over and over again.
Speaker 1: Big news coming out of Elon Musk. It looks like
Speaker 1: he is putting in an offer, a bid for
Speaker 1: OpenAI, also known as Chat GPT. This news just coming
Speaker 1: to us from the Wall Street Journal. Elon Musk-led group
Speaker 1: makes $97.4 billion bid for control of open AI. Don't
Speaker 1: forget he started this company right with Sam Altman. It
Speaker 1: was supposed to have just sort of a.
Speaker 1: A nonprofit mode to it and um Altman has taken
Speaker 1: it for profit. A lot of people have criticized Altman
Speaker 1: not moving quickly enough, especially against the competition which would
Speaker 1: be China. Sam Altman is responding to Elon's offer here
Speaker 1: on X writing, no thank you, but we will buy Twitter.
Speaker 1: Using the name Twitter instead of X for 9.74 billion
Speaker 1: if you want, so that was kind of a a jab,
Speaker 1: you know, he is offering again 97.4 billion. Sam Altman's like, OK, OK,
Speaker 1: you know what, we'll do it for 9.74 billion, we'll
Speaker 1: get that company that you bought Twitter, now known as X.
Speaker 1: Don't forget.
Speaker 1: Yet they co-founded OpenAI in 2015. It was seen as
Speaker 1: a charitable project, and in 2019, Musk left the company.
Speaker 1: Altman became the chief executive. OpenAI went on to create
Speaker 1: this for-profit subsidiary that served as a vehicle for the
Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal here for it to raise money from
Speaker 1: Microsoft as well.
Speaker 1: Other investors and so there's this race right? like AI is,
Speaker 1: is like moving, moving, moving and it's amazing how much
Speaker 1: they're doing and I'm just blown away by it in,
Speaker 1: in any way that I've interacted with it. I'm just,
Speaker 1: I continue to be impressed and yeah, a little bit scared, right?
Speaker 1: So we're all kind of scared like is AI gonna
Speaker 1: replace everyone and everything? Perhaps it's one of the reasons
Speaker 1: why I guess I want to be invested and I
Speaker 1: want the US to get there first and it's hard
Speaker 1: when China is out there.
Speaker 1: You know, knocking on our heels. Here is the CTO,
Speaker 1: the chief technology officer of Planetteer talking about how this
Speaker 1: really is an arms race if you will. I think
Speaker 1: one of the obvious lessons of Deep Sea car one
Speaker 1: is something that we've been saying for the last 2 years,
Speaker 1: which is that the models are commoditizing. Yes, they're getting
Speaker 1: better across both closed and open, but they're also getting
Speaker 1: more similar and.
Speaker 1: The Price of inference is dropping like a rock, but
Speaker 1: I think the real lesson, the more more profound one
Speaker 1: is that we are at war with China. We are
Speaker 1: in an AI arms race, and I got into a
Speaker 1: disagreement with Sam Altman about this at the Senate AI
Speaker 1: summit over a year ago where I was arguing that
Speaker 1: we are in an AI arms race and there's an
Speaker 1: opposing view that we can all get along and we
Speaker 1: can cooperate on these things and I'm sure the other
Speaker 1: side feels quite different realizing that their IP has been
Speaker 1: stolen in this process here.
Speaker 1: But this war started long ago. It was an economic
Speaker 1: war with the ascension of China to the World Trade Organization,
Speaker 1: the greatest IP theft in history, the greatest wealth transfer
Speaker 1: in history. It is an opium war. The number one
Speaker 1: cause of deaths of 18 to 45 year olds in
Speaker 1: this country is fentanyl. That is coming from China. It
Speaker 1: is a diplomatic war. The Belt and Road Initiative is,
Speaker 1: is basically indentured servitude for other countries to the CCP here.
Speaker 1: Um, and the unprecedented phase zero gray zone operations of
Speaker 1: the CCP, how many times are we gonna believe that
Speaker 1: anchors are dragged across the sea that cut undersea cables here?
Speaker 1: But I think one of the things, you know, China
Speaker 1: knows they're at war. The question is we kind of
Speaker 1: equivocate on it as a peace loving nation, but one
Speaker 1: of the things I wanna make sure we all do
Speaker 1: realize is that.
Speaker 1: The engineering in R1 is exquisite. The optimizations that they've
Speaker 1: done are really impressive, and I don't think you can
Speaker 1: get away with the facile explanation that the Chinese just
Speaker 1: copy and we're the only innovators. We have to wake
Speaker 1: up with the respect for our adversary and realize that
Speaker 1: we are competing, but they absolutely did steal a lot
Speaker 1: of that through distillation of the models and perhaps they
Speaker 1: stole even more. And then you can look at the
Speaker 1: GPU sales growth in Singapore. It's a tiny island nation.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure there's some sanctioned invasion going on there.
Speaker 1: And we have to realize that the AI race is
Speaker 1: winner take all, and it's gonna be a whole of
Speaker 1: nation effort that extends well beyond the DOD in order
Speaker 1: for us as a nation to win, uh, and, and
Speaker 1: that day was yesterday, the time to mobilize has come.
Speaker 1: Um, so that was kind of an interesting, an interesting viewpoint, right?
Speaker 1: Like it is time to mobilize and we see the
Speaker 1: government putting $500 billion into this China coming out with
Speaker 1: its deep seek thing and everybody's like, OK, is that
Speaker 1: really scary? Our conclusion over at 76 Research anyway, again,
Speaker 1: shout out for the model portfolios is that no, it's
Speaker 1: actually not as scary as some people think. And if
Speaker 1: you look at where, for example, Nvidia is trading right now, it's.
Speaker 1: Almost back to where it was, so the market overreacted
Speaker 1: in that case. We do have a big piece if
Speaker 1: you want to go over and use code word do
Speaker 1: so you get the 76 report because we wrote extensively
Speaker 1: about this and do have quite a view, but you know, look,
Speaker 1: this is happening and it's scary, but again, like I
Speaker 1: go back to I like the idea of Elon there. I,
Speaker 1: I look, I like the idea of Elon there at Doge.
Speaker 1: I like the idea of Elon there.
Speaker 1: Leading the charge in AI, I, I, I have some concerns,
Speaker 1: shall we say about Sam and, and some of the stuff,
Speaker 1: but anyway, um.
Speaker 1: You know we talk a lot about independent media and I,
Speaker 1: I wanna thank you for your generosity um I can see, uh,
Speaker 1: spirit filled really leading the way and encouraging everybody to
Speaker 1: do that, you know, independent media is so important at
Speaker 1: this moment in time because it is independent media that
Speaker 1: actually was calling out all the bogus stuff you had
Speaker 1: a chorus of people saying the exact.
Speaker 1: Same thing over and over and over and over again
Speaker 1: on network TV and in the newspapers and in these
Speaker 1: you know popular online sites whether it be Huffington Post
Speaker 1: or whether it be um Politico or or any of
Speaker 1: these places right and and it was a narrative that
Speaker 1: was dictated perhaps because of financial reasons because we are
Speaker 1: now learning that everybody was somehow.
Speaker 1: Out there with their hands getting something from the Biden
Speaker 1: administration and so as much as I would say to
Speaker 1: myself like why is everybody freaking out so much listen
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's already been there for 4 years and it's
Speaker 1: not like there were concentration camps and yet they would
Speaker 1: threaten that there would be these, you know, they're gonna
Speaker 1: round you up listen to Debbie Dingell. I played you
Speaker 1: the sound back on CNN right before the election.
Speaker 1: Out of Michigan she's like, oh they're gonna round you
Speaker 1: up if you're Middle Eastern this that and the other
Speaker 1: so there was this level of hysteria that you know
Speaker 1: we haven't seen before and I felt like it was
Speaker 1: just independence people like me over here which we've grown
Speaker 1: and grown and grown thanks to you guys, right? We're
Speaker 1: up over 575,000 subs. I've been doing the show for
Speaker 1: almost 2 years every day now live and it's because of,
Speaker 1: I think just this organic growth, the stickiness of all
Speaker 1: of you that we've been able to grow.
Speaker 1: And it's not through some handout from the federal government,
Speaker 1: so it's important that we have this independent media it's
Speaker 1: important that we have individuals that are willing to risk
Speaker 1: things um with that in mind we're gonna have to
Speaker 1: tackle this story that is just breaking right now perhaps
Speaker 1: we get into this a little bit more tomorrow, ladies
Speaker 1: and gentlemen, but there's a story that just came.
Speaker 1: Out moments ago that uh I I'm sort of blown
Speaker 1: away with yet not entirely because I've spoken a lot
Speaker 1: about the need, shall we say the need for mainstream
Speaker 1: media to have a seat in this digital space. So
Speaker 1: this is what broke.
Speaker 1: Fox, you know, Fox, that company I used to work
Speaker 1: for is actually buying the company that sells the advertising
Speaker 1: for some key podcasts including Megyn Kelly's podcast, Tucker Carlson's podcast,
Speaker 1: and actually Bill O'Reilly's podcast, so Red Seat Ventures.
Speaker 1: Sells the ads for their shows.
Speaker 1: And Fox is coming in and saying, OK, uh, you,
Speaker 1: they're making a lot of money. Maybe we can sell
Speaker 1: those ads instead, so they're buying Red Sea Ventures. Tucker
Speaker 1: still owns his show. Megan still owns her show, Bill
Speaker 1: O'Reilly still owns his show.
Speaker 1: But as I always say, you know, the purse string
Speaker 1: is gonna have a lot of control, and Fox is thinking, hey,
Speaker 1: we can sell Jessie Waters and Fox News, I guess,
Speaker 1: and then, hey, might as well get a little action
Speaker 1: over here on the side with these podcasters that are
Speaker 1: rather similar shall we say to our Jessie Waters and
Speaker 1: so there's a symbiotic relationship there. The only problem with
Speaker 1: that I guess is that at what point does Fox say, oh,
Speaker 1: you know what?
Speaker 1: We really don't like that you're covering J6 so much,
Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson, you know, we're getting all kinds of threats
Speaker 1: from advertisers. They're gonna pull the Fox funding. So, um,
Speaker 1: can you, can you tone that down now to his credit,
Speaker 1: Tucker would probably tell him to go to HLL and back, right?
Speaker 1: Game over. He's not gonna participate in that. He'll say
Speaker 1: no I'm gonna do this because I own my show
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna continue to cover what I want to cover,
Speaker 1: but can't you just see that?
Speaker 1: Because Fox has a pool of money and they're gonna
Speaker 1: tell Tucker, OK, well, we've sold 3 commercials into your
Speaker 1: show this week and we can pull those 3 commercials.
Speaker 1: I mean, Tucker hopefully has it in his contract that
Speaker 1: he can walk away from Red Seat Ventures now owned
Speaker 1: by Fox at any given point should he not like
Speaker 1: how they're selling or not selling his show.
Speaker 1: But it shows you something and I think this is
Speaker 1: fascinating and important to keep in mind that the networks
Speaker 1: know the networks know they missed out the networks know
Speaker 1: that digital is the future and if you really think
Speaker 1: about it and we can get into this in greater
Speaker 1: depth tomorrow, you wonder how much Lachlan Murdoch, whose siblings
Speaker 1: don't agree with him politically speaking.
Speaker 1: He's saying to himself, hey, hang on, maybe I need
Speaker 1: a little digital action over here on the side with
Speaker 1: some conservatives.
Speaker 1: And you know that's great maybe or maybe it just
Speaker 1: puts us right back where we started, where corporate media
Speaker 1: has way too much sway too much say they'll say
Speaker 1: oh we own our programs. OK, great, but you know what,
Speaker 1: you can't stay in business if you don't have the
Speaker 1: ads and if the people controlling the ads are saying
Speaker 1: we don't like this content this week, well then maybe
Speaker 1: you'll just have to find another ad provider.
Speaker 1: So my recommendation to them is make sure you have
Speaker 1: um we call it a 90 day out, make sure
Speaker 1: you have a 90 day out just in case, just
Speaker 1: in case, because it is important right now that all
Speaker 1: of those shows succeed.
Speaker 1: With independent.
Speaker 1: Viewpoints that are not subjected to the likes of big
Speaker 1: corporate media.
Speaker 1: This is what makes it exciting, right? This is what
Speaker 1: makes it special. This is what makes this particular medium really,
Speaker 1: really great, and we love having you here and I
Speaker 1: have someone that sells my ads too and I better
Speaker 1: give one of these ads or I'm gonna get I'm
Speaker 1: gonna hear about it.
Speaker 1: Anyway, I love these guys. I'm good friends with them
Speaker 1: over at American Heart for Gold. I think Bill O'Reilly
Speaker 1: does something with them too. Anyway, you can go to
Speaker 1: Trishlovesgold.com today. Trishloves Gold.com you get up to $15,000 in
Speaker 1: free silver. Text my name Trish to $65532 for that
Speaker 1: special offer up to $15,000 in free silver with American
Speaker 1: Heart for Gold. It is, uh, it is, it's it's
Speaker 1: important to diversify your portfolio, you're.
Speaker 1: Hear that from me all day long, of course. I
Speaker 1: wanted to give another shout out to uh Damian Daylo.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much. I appreciate that. He writes, great show,
Speaker 1: class act. I so appreciate that. I so appreciate all
Speaker 1: of you guys and all your enthusiasm here, but I
Speaker 1: think we got to cover this story just a little
Speaker 1: bit more. I'm gonna get into it in greater depth
Speaker 1: tomorrow because I am curious about how these podcasters stay independent.
Speaker 1: I mean you look at Joe Rogan, right? He works
Speaker 1: for a big corporation.
Speaker 1: Spotify, but he still has that independent streak, and Spotify
Speaker 1: probably sells the ads, but he keeps his core uniquely
Speaker 1: him and I think that that's gonna be the challenge
Speaker 1: in this new environment, right? In this new environment where
Speaker 1: you have the foxes of the world coming back in
Speaker 1: and saying, oh yeah, we like that, we like that,
Speaker 1: we like that, we'll sell them, we'll profit off of
Speaker 1: them and then at what point does that profit turn
Speaker 1: into control?
Speaker 1: I for one do not appreciate any control. There's no
Speaker 1: control but that of Trish Regan right here on this show.
Speaker 1: It is good to have all of you guys. Thank
Speaker 1: you for being here. Make sure you subscribe, share, like,
Speaker 1: make a comment. Let me know what you think of
Speaker 1: the future of independent media right about now, and I'll
Speaker 1: be back here live again tomorrow.
