1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Richard Donald, morning to you, and no wind turbines in

2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:04,880
Speaker 1: front of Trump golf courses round.

3
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:07,280
Speaker 2: Not where are we hitting to nixt with the National Guard?

4
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:10,400
Speaker 1: Now it is Chicago. Trump is escalating his threat to

5
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,760
Speaker 1: send armed National Guards into Democrat run cities. He's calling

6
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 1: the state's governor, JB. Pritzkipp a slob, saying at his

7
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: cabinet session a short time ago.

8
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,479
Speaker 3: You would think that Illinois would have such a problem

9
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,320
Speaker 3: with crime, such a bad governor. He should be calling

10
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 3: me and he should be saying, could you send over

11
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 3: the troops? It's out of control.

12
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 1: Britsckier says he has a somewhat different message for Trump.

13
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 1: He says, this.

14
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 4: Is not about fighting crime. This is about Donald Trump

15
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 4: searching for any justification to deploy the military in a

16
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 4: blue city in a blue state to try and intimidate

17
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 4: his political rival.

18
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: Stan of Chicago, says Pritzki, who says Trump wants to

19
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 1: be a dictator. Trump says, so.

20
00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 3: A lot of people say, you know, that's the case.

21
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 3: I'd rather have it, but I'm not addictedtor I just

22
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 3: had to stop crime.

23
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: On that crime issue, pritz Gier is responding with.

24
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 4: This eight of the top ten states with the highest

25
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 4: homicide rates are led by Republicans. None of those states

26
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 4: is Illinois. Memphis, Tennessee, Hattiesburg, Mississippi have higher crime rates

27
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 4: than Chicago, and yet Donald Trump is sending troops here

28
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 4: and not there. Ask yourself why.

29
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 1: Well, Trump appears to have way more in mind with this.

30
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 1: He's just signed an order for a major expansion of

31
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: the National Guard's role in policing, because for the creation

32
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: of specially trained units that can be mobilized quickly to

33
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 1: quote unquote and sure public order. In the past, national

34
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: guards have been temporary deployed by state governors only, not

35
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: by the Feds, and mostly to help out in the

36
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: wake of natural disasters. So all this is new. Pritzker says,

37
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: if he sounds alarmist, it is because he is sounding

38
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: an alarm He says also the crimes are down in

39
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 1: Chicago and that residents do not want armed troops running

40
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: around in their streets. He also warned the Trump team.

41
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 4: If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me, not

42
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 4: time or political circumstance, from making sure that you face

43
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 4: justice under our constitutional.

44
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: Rule of law. Tough talk. Well, we've seen some Trump

45
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: to play guards in La and in the US Capital

46
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: surveys in both cities showing that large numbers of residents

47
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: opposed this. Pritzker's remarks, though, are the toughest we have

48
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 1: heard to date in this ongoing challenge.

49
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 2: Right Lisa Cook, Nike's problem, plenty of lawyers and Ice

50
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:35,959
Speaker 2: humid ends up in the Supreme Court eventually.

51
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: Lawyers always do well. Yeah, but none of this is

52
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: a done deal. For the first time ever, a president

53
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: has sought to fire a federal Reserve governor, Lisa Cook,

54
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: who is first black woman ever to serve on that

55
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 1: seven member panel. She says she's not going, She won't quit.

56
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 1: She is now suing over the attempt by Trump to

57
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: dismiss her that was announced today. Trump says he is

58
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: pressing ahead with it all, so it's likely to go

59
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: before the US Supreme Court process. It could obviously take

60
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: months and months and months. There is a betting game

61
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: going around among some self described experts who suggest there's

62
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 1: only a thirty percent chance that she'll be ousted before

63
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: US end. Wall Street now seems to be taking all

64
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,399
Speaker 1: of this in stride. There has been a little activity

65
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:18,359
Speaker 1: on the market indexes today session the Trump team science

66
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: and accusation against Corklid mortgage fraud. She denies any wrongdoings.

67
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 1: She hasn't been charged with anything. Nobel Prize winning Economy

68
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: Paul Krugman is a bit more agitated about this, and

69
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: investors seem to be. He is saying this is a.

70
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:34,239
Speaker 5: Five lar fire as a message to everybody else on

71
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 5: the Fed's board and basically to government officials of any

72
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 5: kind that get in our way. Don't act as an

73
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 5: obedient minion of Donald Trump, and we will ruin you.

74
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 5: We will destroy you.

75
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: You know, everyday folks have a stake in all this

76
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: as well. Trump has routinely slammed Jerome Powell FED chair,

77
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: calling him stupid, a numb skull, a more, on and

78
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: on and on and on. But since FED chairs are

79
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: supposed to be independently, conventional thinking has been if you

80
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: sack the FED boss, all hell could break loose. Meantime,

81
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: interest rates remain high because of the anti inflation battle,

82
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: so if you do, consumers wind up paying for it all.

83
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 2: So you put Richard on the stateside and just we've

84
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 2: got problems because Elbow's got problems, and Elbow's got problems

85
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 2: because Crunk doesn't like it. So what's happened here is

86
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 2: this is the bargaining code, the news bargaining code. Australia

87
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,720
Speaker 2: is trying to get the big tech companies you met as,

88
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 2: your Googles, your facebooks, to pay for local news services.

89
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 2: So basically, they nic it. They see something on the

90
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 2: ABC in Australia, they knick it, they put it on

91
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 2: their feed and they make money out of it. We

92
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 2: don't like it. We don't like it here, they don't

93
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 2: like it there. So the news bargaining Code we were doing.

94
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 2: We've done similar deals, but big tech have worked out

95
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 2: they don't need to do deals anymore anyway. So Australia

96
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 2: was looking to pass legislation, We were looking to follow them.

97
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 2: If it was successful, it isn't going to be because

98
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 2: Trump said yesterday, if you pass that, you're attacking American industry.

99
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 2: If you're attacking American industry, I'm going to tear us

100
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 2: the producers out of you. So that's the end of that.

101
00:04:58,240 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 2: Both there and here.
