1 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:10,800 Speaker 1: Lie from the Heartland and the crossroads of America. It's 2 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: Tony Katz today. 3 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 2: So there's a shutdown going on, and as we all know, 4 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 2: it's the end of civilization. No weight, it's day three 5 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 2: or day four or day nine hundred and six. 6 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 3: I don't know. Le's fine. Yeah, some people aren't getting paid. 7 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,839 Speaker 3: I hear you. I get it. I'm not saying no. 8 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 3: What I'm telling you is it's just not. 9 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 2: Any call at all, in any way, shape or form 10 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 2: for panic. 11 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 3: It never has been. There's no panic that can come 12 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 3: from it. 13 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 2: There's no anything else we should be doing except saying, okay, 14 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 2: all right, this is the way it is. There's a shutdown, 15 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 2: and we're all going to survive it, all of us, 16 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:33,119 Speaker 2: all at once. It's just that easy, Tony Kats Tony 17 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,680 Speaker 2: Katz today, Good to be with you. I wish there 18 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:40,839 Speaker 2: was more of a kind of oh my gosh, here's 19 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:41,680 Speaker 2: how important it is. 20 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 3: I'm telling you, it's not. 21 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 2: This is one shutdown, and that's going to then lead 22 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 2: to us having this conversation on November twenty first. November 23 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 2: twenty first, this all comes back, all of this just 24 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 2: a little bit of history repeating Now you're right, in 25 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 2: the chat room. The shutdown may not be much for us, 26 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 2: but for Chuck Schumer this could end his career. That 27 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 2: is true, That is very very true. It is bad 28 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 2: news for Chuck Schumer because he misread all about it. 29 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 2: I know that if I go and look at News 30 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 2: Nation right there, for example, they will show me this headline. 31 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,839 Speaker 2: My gosh, what a headline. Trump administration could lay off 32 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 2: thousands during shutdown. Oh wait, that's a good thing. Oh, 33 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 2: I'm down with that. What are you talking about? Laying 34 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 2: off thousands? And they'll stay laid off, right, that'll be 35 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 2: the story. They'll lose their jobs, we'll never have to 36 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 2: bring them back, or or if we have to bring 37 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 2: some people back, we get to bring back our people. 38 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:01,839 Speaker 3: And of course the conversation. 39 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 2: That here you have this happening and Democrats refuse to 40 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 2: realize that they're the ones who are going to be 41 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 2: out of the jobs. You know, it's that line from 42 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 2: Ram Emmanuel that got quoted many times during the Obama years, 43 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 2: never let a crisis go to waste, You remember that line. 44 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 2: People were outraged by that line. How disgusting, how despicable, 45 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 2: how craven. But everyone always forgets what came next, Ram 46 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 2: Emmanuel said, never let a crisis go to waste, because 47 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 2: it allows you to do things you otherwise could not do. 48 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 2: The point that I make there is that Ram Emmanuel 49 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 2: was not interested in beating around the butches. He was 50 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 2: not playing around the ashes edges. He said to you, 51 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 2: everything is an opportunity to screw the other guy. And 52 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 2: I'm going to screw that dude with his pants on. 53 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 2: I'm going to screw that ye dude so bad you're 54 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 2: gonna think my name is Ron Jeremy. It's gonna get 55 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 2: rough up in here. That's what rom Emanuel said. Oh, 56 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 2: I'm sorry if it's crude, but it's factual. This was 57 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 2: made clear by Harry Reid, the late senator from Nevada, 58 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 2: who deserves none of your respect, and the fact that 59 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 2: an airport was named after him is despicable. They should 60 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 2: immediately remove his name from the airport. This was a craven, 61 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 2: despicable political guy, nasty, ugly, and I state to you 62 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:47,239 Speaker 2: that this is the guy who said of Mitt Romney 63 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 2: when he was running for president. You know that Mitt 64 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 2: Romney he didn't even pay his taxes And people said, 65 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, what what are you talking about? Senator Reid, 66 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 2: can you explain you're saying that Mitt Romney didn't pay 67 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 2: his tax? What are you referring to? And Harry Reid said, 68 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 2: don't ask me, ask Mitt Romney. And years later Harry 69 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: read older and Frail said, Yeah, that probably wasn't the 70 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 2: nicest thing to do, but we won, didn't we Some 71 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 2: lessons are very very hard to forget, the level of hatred, 72 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 2: the level of vitriol, the level of disgust, the uninterested 73 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 2: that they are in being people who actually support America 74 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 2: or the American way of life. No, destroy, destroy, destroy, 75 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 2: Never let a crisis go to waste, because it allows 76 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: you to do things you otherwise could not do. And 77 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,359 Speaker 2: we one didn't. We is saying, when there is no crisis, 78 00:05:54,760 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 2: create one. You think I'm going to cry because some 79 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 2: people are going to lose their jobs, I don't care. 80 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 2: And I don't care because see this is the part 81 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 2: they'll always cut out. Maybe we don't need all those 82 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 2: jobs to begin with. And no one is guaranteed a job. 83 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 2: When I lose my job on radio, the total amount 84 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 2: of people in governments who are going to cry is zero. 85 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 2: There's a progressive that's going to cry, Oh my gosh, 86 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 2: this radio host lost his job. Man, I heard that 87 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 2: Tony Katz lost his job. Oh gosh, that is rough. 88 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 2: I really feel for him and his family. You think 89 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 2: that the Harry Reid, Rob Emanuel set is going to 90 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 2: cry for my family show concern about how my kids 91 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 2: get through college anytime, ever, anywhere, do not ask me 92 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 2: to do the same, especially when we're talking about government. 93 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 2: The reason I state that I do not care is 94 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 2: that if we reduce the size of government, we are 95 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 2: better off. 96 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 3: And maybe it's crude and wrong and rude to say 97 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 3: I don't. 98 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 2: Care, but these guys wanted to use any crisis they 99 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 2: could to destroy your life and take power for themselves, 100 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 2: and they were willing to lie in the will of 101 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 2: the Senate in order to win elections. I don't think 102 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 2: that you should get hurt. I don't think that your 103 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 2: family should go hungry. I hope those things don't happen. 104 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 2: But worry about your government job and somehow believe that 105 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 2: it is sacrifanct and above reproach that you can't cancel 106 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 2: these jobs. You can't cut these jobs. You can't cut 107 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 2: from here, you can't reduce from there. Somehow that's all 108 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 2: above the fray. They will not cry for me. Oh, 109 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 2: and trucker, they will not cry for you. Police officer, 110 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 2: there will be no tears. Nurse, you already know what 111 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 2: they'll do to you if you don't take a vaccine. No, no, 112 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 2: I will not do not ask me to somehow be 113 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 2: more kind. We're not talking about anything other than people 114 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 2: who believe that they are owed something not doing that. Oh, 115 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 2: don't get me wrong. When you lose your job, it stinks. 116 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 2: I spoke to someone last night who got laid off. 117 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 2: They knew it was coming, they knew it was coming, 118 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 2: and they thought they would have something new by now, 119 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 2: and they don't, and they're frustrated. And yeah, that's an 120 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 2: ugly feeling. You have a family and ei there's a 121 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 2: sense of purpose with a job one hundred percent. I want. 122 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 2: I hope he finds it. I hope it works out. 123 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 2: You know what he didn't say to me. You know 124 00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 2: I'm owed a job. You know they have to revive 125 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 2: for me. You know, these people aren't allowed to cut 126 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 2: my job. My job's the most important thing in the world. 127 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 2: But it's somehow government workers always believe this, and Democrats 128 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 2: always try to push this. So when I see that 129 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 2: thousands may be laid off. Okay, don't ask me to 130 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,959 Speaker 2: care about that, ask me to care about whether or 131 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 2: not the job was necessary to begin with, because you 132 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 2: are not engaged in a conversation of well, everybody needs 133 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 2: a job. We're talking about what it takes to run 134 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: the United States governments, and not all these jobs are necessary. 135 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 2: And since it is indeed our dollars, we have a 136 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 2: say in it, and government is not supposed to be 137 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 2: a job's program. So what you're telling me people upset 138 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 2: with this idea of layoffs is somehow we owe these 139 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 2: people these jobs. We have to have these jobs. We 140 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 2: always have to have these jobs, and we can never 141 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 2: lessen the amount of jobs that we have. 142 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 3: No thanks, no thanks. 143 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 2: What we should do is make it easier for the 144 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 2: private sector to hire and let these people actually see 145 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 2: what it is to have to show results at the 146 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 2: end of the day. Can't wait to see that. And 147 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 2: just like I refuse to engage some level of crocodile 148 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 2: tier for the people who will lose their gigs in 149 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 2: a shutdown, because I believe that the loss of the 150 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 2: gig should be permanent in many of these cases, and 151 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 2: the savings should be passed on to us. I am 152 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 2: not going to shed a teer for a shutdown that 153 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 2: never had to be. Chuck Schumer did this because Chuck 154 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 2: Schumer wanted to show how tough he was to progressives 155 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 2: so he could win a primary against Representative of Ocssio 156 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 2: Cortes for Senate. Now, let's say you don't believe that. 157 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 2: Let's say you think that's just the right one talking point, 158 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: and you don't believe that at all. You're more than 159 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 2: welcome not to believe that at all. You go right 160 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 2: ahead and don't believe that at all. Give me another reason, Well, Tony, 161 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 2: he's trying to save Obamacare. No, no, that's not until 162 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: the end of December when we talk about Obamacare and 163 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 2: the subsidies. And we've already stated and I will get 164 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 2: into this as clear as day. Trump's going to extend 165 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 2: the subsidies because he gets to say, look what I 166 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 2: did for people. Trump's going to steal it from the Democrats. 167 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 2: There was no point in this. 168 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 3: All avoidable. 169 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 2: This is something that was wanted in a belief that 170 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 2: in a shutdown, the political left will always be victorious. 171 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,079 Speaker 2: You've got you've got the media on your side, and 172 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,559 Speaker 2: you've got culture on your side and everything else, and 173 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 2: oh my gosh, look we're we're going to paint Republicans 174 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 2: this and paint Republicans that, and paint Republicans the other. 175 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 2: And none of it worked. None of it worked zero. 176 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 2: And we should be clear that these cuts that are 177 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 2: about to come. 178 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 3: All Schumer. 179 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 4: Everybody needs to understand how this works. When Congress decides 180 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 4: to turn off the lights to shut the government down, 181 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 4: it shifts the authority to the executive brands. That's how 182 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 4: the process works. The person who has decided to put 183 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 4: the White House in that situation is Chuck Schumer, who 184 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 4: leads the Democrats the forty four who keep voting to 185 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 4: keep the government from opening up. They're voting to shut 186 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 4: it down. So what happens in that situation, whoever is 187 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 4: the president, whoever is sitting in the White House, and 188 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,319 Speaker 4: their staffs at the Office of Management and Budget are 189 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 4: given an unenviable task. 190 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 2: It's a regretful situation. 191 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 4: They have to then determine since the spickets have been 192 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 4: effectively turned off and there's no more money coming in, 193 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 4: they have to then prioritize triage effectively federal spending. They 194 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 4: have to look at all of that and say you 195 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 4: know which things are deemed essential and which are non essential, 196 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 4: Which priorities, policies and personnel must be kept to keep 197 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 4: the government operating in which are less of a priority. 198 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 4: So whomever is sitting in the White House gets to 199 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 4: then apply their lenses of review. 200 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 2: Now what's interesting here is that first they will tell 201 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 2: you that they're fighting for people, and then they'll tell 202 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 2: you that the people can never lose their job. Healthcare 203 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 2: has to be provided ten thousand percent by government, and 204 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 2: jobs have to be provided ten thousand percent by government. 205 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 3: At every moment. Their answer is more. 206 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 2: Their answer is growing, Their answer is more services. Their 207 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 2: answer is more governments at every moment, every single moment, 208 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 2: the same position applause. So they must believe that not 209 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 2: only can they win on this idea of the Obamacare subsidies, 210 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 2: Trump's gonna start cutting Russ RUSS vote over that the 211 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 2: Office Management budget's gonna start cutting, and they think they're 212 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 2: gonna win again. They think that the American people are 213 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 2: gonna be upset with the job cuts. They're unnecessary jobs 214 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: and we're the ones paying for them. If the Trump 215 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 2: administration because of this shutdown, because Chuck Schumer miscalculated, which 216 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 2: he does a lot. If they start cutting parts of 217 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 2: the government workforce, you know what voters are gonna say, 218 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 2: this is what I voted for. 219 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 3: Reducing the size of government. 220 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 2: This is like DOGE two point zero, which we should 221 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 2: still be done. This is good. What about our lives? 222 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 2: You keep telling me about these people who work for government? 223 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 5: What about me? 224 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 2: Who pays for the people who work for government? Do 225 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 2: we really need all those people? I make sacrifices in 226 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 2: my life, for my family, for my family's budget. There 227 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 2: are things I do without. There are things I do 228 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 2: with less of, even though I don't want to. What 229 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 2: about them? And they always say, how dare you? Like? 230 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 2: They're Greta Tunberg? They just don't have the frog hats? 231 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 2: Did she get turned off the boat as she was 232 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 2: heading to uh Gaza because she supports terrorists? 233 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 3: Because well she's an abused child. 234 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 2: I mean, to support terrorism is just to show how 235 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 2: mentally deficient you are. People sacrifice every day and somehow 236 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 2: governments shouldn't. Government is sakra sank. These jobs must remain 237 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 2: Nah No, The shutdown is on Schumer. The job loss 238 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 2: is on Schumer. And that's that we are in day three. 239 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 2: Who knows how many more days we'll have, but they're 240 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 2: not gonna shed a tear for you. Don't forget that. 241 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 2: I'm Tony Katz.

Do I 251 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 2: want to talk about the armed drug smugglers or do 252 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 2: I want to talk about the Iowa fraud producer landing 253 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 2: armed drug smugglers or Iowa fraud. Let's go with the 254 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 2: drug smugglers. Let's talk about the drug smugglers right there. 255 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:06,719 Speaker 2: It is a really interesting question that is being asked 256 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 2: where you have Republicans and Democrats who want answers for 257 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 2: how it is we're dealing with these drug smuggling boats 258 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 2: from Venezuela, because the President said something different when you 259 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,439 Speaker 2: talk about hitting one of these drugs smuggling boats, and 260 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 2: you had Senator Rand Paul up in arms about this. 261 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 2: I do not believe that we didn't have the data, 262 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,880 Speaker 2: the intel to know that they were trying to bring 263 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:37,919 Speaker 2: fentylin from Venezuela. Right. I believe that to be ture. 264 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 2: And then we hit another one. It's like, Okay, we've 265 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 2: done this twice. Well, now we've done this again. But 266 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 2: what the President has stated is that we are in 267 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:54,360 Speaker 2: a non international armed conflict. He put this out there, 268 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 2: that this is the story, and once you engage that way. 269 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 2: The administration referred to the Cartels as designated terrorist organizations 270 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 2: and that the Administration is quotes determined that their actions 271 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 2: constant an armed attack against the United States. Congress absolutely 272 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 2: can ask the question, did we just declare war on Venezuela, 273 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,360 Speaker 2: Because we're the ones who have the power to declare war. 274 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 2: We haven't done that. The President is changing what it 275 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 2: is that we're dealing with. That you would agree that 276 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,439 Speaker 2: venezuel as an OARCO terrorist organization is fine by me. 277 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 2: I accept this, But if you're going to talk about 278 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 2: a sustained military action that they would ask. Okay, we've 279 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 2: gotten this briefing from you. Now we've got other questions, 280 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 2: because it seems to me like you're saying that we're 281 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,920 Speaker 2: engaged in a war and if so Congress declares war, 282 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:59,919 Speaker 2: we have a role to play constitutionally, and you can 283 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 2: and keep us from it. That's a legitimate argument. It 284 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 2: is I think an illegitimate argument to say that the 285 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 2: United States can do nothing until these drug boats get 286 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 2: to us soil. I think that's a sortifiable argument. This 287 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 2: is interesting. We're gonna keep our eyes on this. Meanwhile, 288 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 2: in Iowa, DEI once again does exactly what it always does. 289 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 3: Keep it here. 290 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 2: This is Tony Kats today. Amongst the greatest speeches Donald 291 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 2: Trump has ever given was the speech given to the 292 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 2: UN in his first term. The very best because because 293 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 2: I'll say clearly, I don't think Trump gives a great speech. 294 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 2: His his whole uh you know, stream of consciousness kind 295 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 2: of way of doing things. 296 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 3: It it doesn't lend itself to great oratory. 297 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 2: That he is very good at connecting does not necessarily 298 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 2: mean he has great oratory. 299 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 3: He doesn't. 300 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 2: Barack Obama, I'm told he had great oratory. But that's 301 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 2: that didn't move me at all. Tony Katz, Tony Katz. Today, 302 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 2: this was Trump. This was twenty seventeen, September nineteenth, twenty seventeen, 303 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 2: his speech to the UN General Assembly, which I consider 304 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 2: still the best speech of his career. It would have 305 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:42,479 Speaker 2: been the speech he gave at the RNC accepting the 306 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 2: nomination for the third time. That would have been it, 307 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 2: but I think he went too long. He kind of 308 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 2: lost the plot. It was so on point for so 309 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 2: much of it that if he just said, like foll Costanza, 310 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 2: I'm out and walked off the stage, we'd still be 311 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 2: talking about it today. 312 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 3: But this was the speech. Listen. 313 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 6: The problem in Venezuela is not that socialism has been 314 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:32,400 Speaker 6: poorly implemented, but that socialism has been faithfully implemented. From 315 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 6: the Soviet Union to Cuba to Venezuela. Wherever true socialism 316 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 6: or communism has been adopted, it has delivered anguish and 317 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 6: devastation and failure. 318 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I don't know how people I keep 319 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 2: I've got the clip, I keep it at the ready 320 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 2: at all times. It is so true, it is so good. 321 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 2: This line right here is. 322 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 6: Not that socialism has been poorly implemented, but that socialism 323 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,920 Speaker 6: has been faithfully implemented. 324 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 3: First of all, that is perfect. And the laughter. 325 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 2: That Trump is so aware of an audience that he 326 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:34,400 Speaker 2: waited for that to develop, that nervous laughter, that begrudging applause. 327 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 2: The un couldn't believe he said the words. That speech. 328 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 2: I'm telling you, that is it. That was the zenith 329 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 2: of Holy cow. This guy is different. I mean we 330 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 2: already know him to be different. We saw the debate 331 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 2: with Hillary Clinton. We were like, oh dang, but this 332 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 2: this was it. And by the way, no, this was 333 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 2: twenty seventeen. Logan in the chat room, the teleproperty going 334 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 2: rogue was this last time around just a couple of 335 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 2: maybe a week ago. Now that's the problem that if 336 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 2: any time you have socialism implemented, it's not going to work. 337 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 2: And there is no improperly. Oh you see, they didn't 338 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 2: do it right. If you talk to a commie today 339 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 2: on a college campus, they'll all tell you that the 340 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 2: other guy did it wrong. See Stalin and Lenin, and 341 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 2: now they did it wrong, will do it right? 342 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 3: You see. 343 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 2: The problem is communism has never been implemented. You know, 344 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 2: true communism has never been tried. The lie continues to 345 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 2: embolden people who want to believe the lie. No one 346 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 2: believes the con more than the mark. These are really 347 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 2: terrible people who are broken and lost. Socialism was implemented faithfully, 348 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 2: and that's why Venezuela they eat pigeons. 349 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 3: The same can be said for DEI. 350 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 2: Any time DEI is implemented, the result will lead to 351 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 2: absolute disaster for everybody who has to deal with it. 352 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 2: Did DEI bring diversity, equity and inclusion, No, it did not. 353 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 3: It divided people. 354 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 2: And it never allowed for diversity of thoughts, never once, never, ever, 355 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 2: and it allowed people who had no business rising up 356 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 2: the ranks to do exactly that. That brings us to 357 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 2: the superintendent of the Des Moines Public Schools, this guy 358 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:57,719 Speaker 2: named Ian Roberts. The story of Ian Roberts is that 359 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 2: he came to the country illegally from Guyana and he 360 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 2: lost the ability to stay in the United States and 361 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 2: was scheduled for removal in May of twenty twenty four. 362 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 2: That was during the Biden administration. But in twenty twenty 363 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 2: three he got this job as the superintendent of schools 364 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:31,159 Speaker 2: for the Des Moines Public Schools. In Iowa. He got 365 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 2: this job because he lied. He got this job because 366 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 2: the liberal board of the Des Moines Public Schools had 367 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 2: no interest in actually checking him and actually doing any 368 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 2: background checks, actually seeing if he had any of the 369 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 2: honors that he had claimed that he had. What they 370 00:25:52,840 --> 00:26:01,679 Speaker 2: saw was black man check des Moines, white place, having 371 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 2: a black superintendent. You see, that's how we show what 372 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 2: real equity is by saying so. They said, we didn't 373 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 2: hire the best person. We hired the person who. 374 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 3: Checked the box. Check. 375 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:20,120 Speaker 2: We don't check backgrounds, we check boxes. We are liberals. 376 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 2: Don't get angry with me. Don't call me any names. 377 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 2: You want to call me a racist, you you can 378 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 2: call me anything you like, But I'm right. They didn't 379 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 2: hire to merit. They hired to color match. They they 380 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 2: hired a superintendent in the same way you go to 381 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:46,400 Speaker 2: Sherwin Williams with your color swatch. I'm looking for something 382 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 2: that looks like this. You got you got a color 383 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,160 Speaker 2: that looks like this. I need this color right here. 384 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 2: And they said, well, we've got these colors here, and 385 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 2: they matched it up and said that one will do. 386 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 2: What has now come out first that this guy was 387 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 2: caught fleeing Ice immigrations customs enforcement with a gun, a knife, 388 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 2: of three thousand dollars in cash that he had a 389 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 2: gun charge in Pennsylvania from years ago, and he was 390 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 2: a registered voter in Maryland. I think he ever voted 391 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 2: in an election in Iowa. One has to assume he 392 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 2: voted an election in Iowa. I wait for more information 393 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 2: to come out, But how about the part two of 394 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 2: this story that you knew was gonna happen. Guys, you 395 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 2: didn't need me to tell you. You understand it, and 396 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 2: I understand. I think there are some hosts who don't 397 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,959 Speaker 2: understand this. You don't need me to tell you what 398 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 2: to think about anything. All I do is share ideas, 399 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 2: maybe bring some stories, some information that you didn't have, 400 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 2: and you then come up with your own thoughts, your 401 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 2: own philosophy. Sometimes you agree with me, sometimes you disagree 402 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 2: with me. That's okay, as long as we can still 403 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,640 Speaker 2: have a drink and a cigar together. I'm a happy guy. 404 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 2: But you never once needed me to tell you what 405 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 2: to think. Sometimes, if I'm lucky, I give you something 406 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 2: to think about. 407 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 3: That's it. 408 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 2: And sometimes I maybe I'm able to share a story 409 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:12,640 Speaker 2: in a way where You're like, you know what, That's 410 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 2: exactly it. That's what I was trying to come up. 411 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 2: But that's what I was trying to say. It's like 412 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 2: when you go to the mechanic and you say, I 413 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 2: don't know what's going on. There's this worrying noise, and 414 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 2: then it clicks and then it makes fun of my mother. 415 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 2: I don't know what's wrong with the car, and the 416 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,439 Speaker 2: mechanic says, oh, that's the flex capacitor. 417 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 3: I don't know anything about cars. 418 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 2: I don't know. That's what the mechanic can do. That's 419 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 2: my kick. But what I'm about to share with you 420 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 2: knew the minute you heard this story, and you didn't. 421 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 3: Need me to tell you. 422 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 2: They never did any background check there at the Des 423 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 2: Moines Public Schools. Well they weren't supposed to. Well they 424 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 2: didn't have to. Well he has already had this job, 425 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 2: so we made the assumption, he claims, does doctor Roberts 426 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 2: doctor this fraud? 427 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 3: Oh claims. 428 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 2: That he was a graduate of Morgan State University, saying 429 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 2: that he received a doctorate an Urban Educational Leadership from 430 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 2: Morgan State University in July two thousand and seven.

Claims he got this doctorate from Morgan State 435 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 2: University in two thousand and seven. Morgan State confirming to 436 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 2: the Des Moines Register that Roberts did not obtain a 437 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 2: degree from the school. He was there from the fall 438 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 2: of two thousand and two through the spring of two 439 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 2: thousand and seven. He did not obtain a degree to 440 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 2: the school. He said that he had completed programs at 441 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:11,479 Speaker 2: MIT Sloan School of Management MIT, stating that the school 442 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:18,959 Speaker 2: does not have records of him attending. They have no 443 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 2: record of him attending. When the Des Moines Public Schools 444 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 2: announced in a twenty twenty three news release that he 445 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,719 Speaker 2: was hired, they stated that he had been honored by 446 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 2: the George Washington University as its District of Columbia Principal 447 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 2: of the Year.

Every single one of you knows what 451 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 2: has happened here knows that this was a DEI hire 452 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 2: by a school board of liberal women who never once 453 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 2: checked anything because checking backgrounds did not matter. The only 454 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 2: thing that mattered was checking boxes. And this is what 455 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 2: happens when DEI is instituted. I mean, it's just a 456 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 2: matter of replacing the dang words. 457 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 6: Venezuela is not that socialism has been poorly implemented, but 458 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 6: that socialism has been faithfully implemented. 459 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 2: Replace Venezuela with des Moines, and replace socialism with DEI. 460 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 2: The problem in des Moines is not that DEI was 461 00:31:54,360 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 2: poorly implemented, but that it has been faithfully, faithfully implemented. 462 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 3: Correct And you knew it the minute you heard it. 463 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 2: And by the way, we should be clear, that is 464 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 2: a horror show for a lot of really fantastic, well educated, 465 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 2: ready to go black teachers and educators who would be 466 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 2: great superintendents. 467 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 3: Stuff like this harms them. 468 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 2: But liberals being biggots, well, I mean, that's just that's 469 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 2: just history repeating.

This is standard operating procedure. And the 548 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 2: people upset and angry at oh the Republicans this, and 549 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 2: that it's not moving any part of the needle anywhere. 550 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 2: I get that there are people who are government workers 551 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,880 Speaker 2: who are upset by it. I'm not saying that they're not. 552 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 2: I am saying I'm sorry, I won't be a part 553 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:45,800 Speaker 2: of it. 554 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 3: Maybe a better thing. 555 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:50,320 Speaker 2: To say than I don't care is I can't concern 556 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 2: myself with what is clearly your problem. What is the 557 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,239 Speaker 2: What I can concern myself is with is what has 558 00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 2: been my problem and a lot of our problems, which 559 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 2: is we're spending too much money. The government keeps taking 560 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 2: our money. We have a lot of people working government 561 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 2: who shouldn't be working government. We don't need all these people. 562 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 2: We don't need all of these people. I would like 563 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 2: to see more care about that. And so with that 564 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:22,879 Speaker 2: I something's got to give. And the answer is it's 565 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 2: your job, which is not guaranteed to you by any 566 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 2: stretch of the imagination. 567 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,240 Speaker 3: Now we're waiting for this press briefing to begin. 568 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 2: I bring you that we now have the story that 569 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 2: Kilmar Abrego Garcia has been denied asylum. He had a 570 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:00,759 Speaker 2: bid for us. Oh you know the guy, the guy 571 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 2: who drinks Margarita's with Senator Chris van Holland, the guy 572 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 2: who was involved in human trafficking, has connections to MS thirteen, 573 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 2: is in the country illegally. His wife twice called the 574 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,719 Speaker 2: police because he's abusive and now cries for him. I 575 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,759 Speaker 2: miss him so much. That kill mar Brego Garcia, who 576 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 2: they sent to Al Salvador, where he should have been 577 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 2: deported to. But there's some ridiculous judges order that says 578 00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,720 Speaker 2: he can't be deported to Al Salvador, where he's from, 579 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 2: So they're going to send him somewhere else. And now 580 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 2: the Left is up in arms He's not a Maryland man. 581 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:37,799 Speaker 2: He's an illegal immigrant, and he has no business being 582 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:42,400 Speaker 2: in the United States of America. Immigration judge denying his 583 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 2: asylum bid. It was a rejection of the application to 584 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:51,359 Speaker 2: reopen his twenty nineteen asylum case. He can't appeal it 585 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:54,840 Speaker 2: to the Board of Immigration Appeals. Now, I want you 586 00:39:54,920 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 2: to notice that I was told that that kil Mar 587 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 2: Abrigo Garcia. Here, I was told he had no due process, 588 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 2: no due process, but gets to appeal to the Board 589 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:17,759 Speaker 2: of Immigration Appeals. I would argue, the guy has too 590 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 2: much due process. I know what you're saying. How dare you, Tony? 591 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 3: How dare you? 592 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 2: Well, here's how I dare We're not talking about a 593 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 2: citizen here, We're not talking about a citizen. Citizens have 594 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,880 Speaker 2: due process. How did we come to even think that 595 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:42,799 Speaker 2: people who are not citizens have the same rights as citizens? 596 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 2: Did I say we should treat people inhumanely? Of course not. 597 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 3: The people making that claim are just flat out liars. 598 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 2: Deportation is not inhumane, while the country going back to 599 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 2: is just so violent. I'm sorry to hear that. I 600 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 2: would say, I don't know what that's like. But we 601 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 2: have Chicago, so maybe a little bit aware of what 602 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 2: it's like. I saw what happened in Minneapolis during the 603 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 2: George Floyd riots. 604 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 3: Oh, I understand violence. 605 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 2: I see what happens to conservatives today when they just 606 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 2: sit with a microphone and talk to a crowd. 607 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 3: He should be deported. 608 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,760 Speaker 2: But right now we have got oh in day three, Caroline, 609 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 2: let let's take it. 610 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 5: To her shutdown. 611 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 7: The Democrats continue to recklessly hold the American people hostage 612 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:42,879 Speaker 7: over their demands to give illegal aliens free health care. 613 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 7: Republicans are fully unified behind passing nonpartisan clean funding bill, 614 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:52,400 Speaker 7: the exact same bill that Democrats approved back in March 615 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 7: to reopen the federal government. But those same Senate Democrats 616 00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 7: are now voting against this clean funding bill and keeping 617 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,840 Speaker 7: the people's government closed. I understand Democrats will have an 618 00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:06,839 Speaker 7: opportunity very shortly here to change course, and. 619 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:07,920 Speaker 5: We hope that they will. 620 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 7: There are significant personal impacts on millions of Americans as 621 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,320 Speaker 7: a result of this current government shutdown. The one point 622 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:19,240 Speaker 7: three million men and women of America's Army, Navy, Air Force, 623 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:22,960 Speaker 7: Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Space Force who serve honorably 624 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 7: and put their lives on the line to defend us 625 00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:29,120 Speaker 7: all are not being paid. Military families are already seeking 626 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 7: out food assistance because of financial anxiety cause by this 627 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 7: Democrats shutdown. According to new reporting from The Military Times, 628 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 7: staff members at the Armed Services YMCA food pantry distribution 629 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 7: location near Fort Hood in Texas found a line of 630 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 7: military families stretched around the side of the building yesterday. 631 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 5: At five in the morning. 632 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 7: According to the staff who work there, that is quote 633 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 7: not happened. Ever, they've already had a thirty four percent 634 00:42:57,080 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 7: increase this week over past weeks. Trump and Republicans fundamentally 635 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:05,320 Speaker 7: believe we have a sacred responsibility to protect and provide 636 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 7: for our military families with the resources they need to thrive. 637 00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 7: If Democrats believe in this very simple premise too, they 638 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:17,840 Speaker 7: should end this shutdown immediately. Unfortunately, the severe impacts of 639 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 7: the Democrats shutdown extend beyond our troops. Nearly seven million mothers, infants, 640 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 7: and low income families who rely on government run food 641 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 7: assistance will be in jeopardy if the WIG program runs 642 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 7: out of money in the weeks ahead. 643 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:34,439 Speaker 2: No one should be surprised by what's happening here. 644 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 7: Traffic controllers who ensure that Americans fly safely in airports 645 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 7: across the country are currently working without pay. 646 00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 2: Look at the harm the Democrats are doing. Look at 647 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,280 Speaker 2: the pain the Democrats are inflicting on America, all because 648 00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:48,840 Speaker 2: they won't be rational if politics. 649 00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:48,799 Speaker 3: One on one. 650 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 5: We are in the middle of hurricane season. 651 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:55,640 Speaker 7: Critical services offered at Social Security field offices are reduced 652 00:43:55,680 --> 00:44:00,360 Speaker 7: for senior citizens and disabled Americans. Helpful transition is distance 653 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 7: programs are not being provided for veterans who fought to 654 00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,359 Speaker 7: defend our country and are now trying. 655 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:08,320 Speaker 5: To re enter civilian life. 656 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:13,440 Speaker 7: The economic consequences of this shutdown are piling up every day. Policymakers, 657 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,359 Speaker 7: markets and even the Federal Reserve are flying blind at 658 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 7: a key juncture because BLS and BEA data are on 659 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 7: hold until the government reopens. Democrats shutting down the federal 660 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 7: government to give health care to illegal aliens could lead 661 00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 7: to lower growth and higher unemployment rates for Americans. According 662 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 7: to a new memo from the Council of Economic Advisors, 663 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 7: the US economy could lose fifteen billion dollars of growth 664 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 7: domestic product each week every single week the Democrats shutdown extends, 665 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,720 Speaker 7: with a month long shutdown, leading to an additional forty 666 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 7: three thousand unemployed people, Small businesses, are likely to encounter 667 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 7: delays in receiving federal loans, Mortgage applications will likely shrink 668 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,920 Speaker 7: in Justice Morning Business Roundtable and association of more than 669 00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:01,800 Speaker 7: two hundred CEOs of Americans leading companies representing every sector 670 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:05,400 Speaker 7: of the US economy put out a statement urging Congress 671 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 7: to pass the clean CR that will once again come 672 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:11,160 Speaker 7: before them in the Senate floor in just a few moments. 673 00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:12,000 Speaker 5: Quote. 674 00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 7: A fully functioning government is essential for American businesses, workers, 675 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:20,439 Speaker 7: and consumers while policymakers continue working on a full year 676 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 7: funding package and other pressing issues. 677 00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 2: Again, that is no one is surprised that this is 678 00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 2: the tact that they're taking. Apply maximum pressure to get 679 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 2: what it is that you want, which is this CR pass, 680 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,680 Speaker 2: which only takes us to November twenty first, and we're 681 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 2: going to do this stuff again. I'm going to have 682 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 2: more from Caroline Levitt, the Press Secretary, with this press briefing. 683 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 3: Keep it right here, guys, this is Tony Kats today. 684 00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:43,240 Speaker 5: Wants to work with anyone. 685 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,359 Speaker 7: If the Mayor of Portland were to call him right 686 00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 7: now and say, mister President, please help us, I am 687 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 7: sure the President would be willing to do that. He 688 00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:54,920 Speaker 7: is genuinely serious about wanting to restore order in America's cities, 689 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 7: but it's just become apparent that the local and elected 690 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:01,240 Speaker 7: officials in Oregon do not feel and that's very unfortunate 691 00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:02,279 Speaker 7: for the people who live there. 692 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:05,320 Speaker 2: That's the press conference Why Else Press Brief in Caroline 693 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:06,960 Speaker 2: Levitt speaking the press secretary of me. 694 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 3: I'm Tony Katz. 695 00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 2: The Show's Tony Katz today and not only a conversation 696 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,239 Speaker 2: about the shutdown, but a conversation about what's going on 697 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:17,400 Speaker 2: in Portland with these Antifa and others and the attacks 698 00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,840 Speaker 2: from DHS. There was an interesting piece from David Marcus 699 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 2: and Rick Fox News regarding how now that there's been 700 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 2: this surge of federal officials, these things have kind of 701 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:31,960 Speaker 2: slowed down, but you still have this issue. It's seemingly 702 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 2: going on with the Antifa folk thinking that they can 703 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 2: do anything they want, and you've got Oregon officials saying, 704 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 2: how dare you notice what's happening here? 705 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 5: The American people, that's always the story. 706 00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 2: The left is most offended when you notice, and Americans 707 00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 2: want well Antifa and these violent people not to think 708 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:54,400 Speaker 2: that they're in charge of anything. We are in charge, 709 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 2: and we are a society of laws, and the laws 710 00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,359 Speaker 2: have to be followed, and people are violing the law 711 00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:01,360 Speaker 2: and threatening others and attack looking federal officials and federal 712 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 2: law enforcement need to be dealt with. 713 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:05,040 Speaker 3: Back to the press briefing. 714 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:06,799 Speaker 7: Straation has been very clear, Kelly that we're not going 715 00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 7: to tolerate waste, fraud, and abuse in our government. And 716 00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 7: we've also been very clear to point out when agencies 717 00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:16,400 Speaker 7: or when programs do not align with this administration's values 718 00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 7: of putting our country first. You've seen that with USAID 719 00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:23,319 Speaker 7: and in various other cases where there's been cuts made 720 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 7: or funding has been slashed, and so again, unfortunately, we're 721 00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:29,319 Speaker 7: having to do a massive review of the bureaucracy to 722 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 7: be good stewards of the American taxpayer dollar. And it's 723 00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:35,560 Speaker 7: the Democrats who have forced the White House and the President. 724 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 5: Into this position by voting to shut the government down. 725 00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:41,600 Speaker 8: You've talked about thousands likely layoffs coming. 726 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:42,680 Speaker 5: Do you have an update on the. 727 00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:47,319 Speaker 9: Timeline for that, How quickly and if the government is 728 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 9: restored to funding and. 729 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 4: Back in operation, will that list of potential layoffs. 730 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 5: Still be on the tape? 731 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:55,680 Speaker 7: Look, as I just stated, the Office of Management and 732 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 7: Budget is in constant communication and contact right now with 733 00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:02,839 Speaker 7: our cabinets, secretaries and agencies across the board to identify. 734 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:04,840 Speaker 5: Unfortunately, where layoffs have to go. 735 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,200 Speaker 2: Okay, this is an adept answer because that isn't the 736 00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:10,440 Speaker 2: question that was asked by NBC. The question asked by 737 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:14,680 Speaker 2: NBC is are you going to fire these people anyway? 738 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:16,360 Speaker 2: Are you going to admit that you want to remake 739 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:20,480 Speaker 2: the government utilizing this shutdown? Are you going to just 740 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 2: go about getting rid of these people no matter what? 741 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:25,840 Speaker 2: Do you hope that this continues so it can be 742 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 2: done faster, so you can actually get these things handled. 743 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,880 Speaker 2: That was the question asked by NBC right there, and 744 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:35,040 Speaker 2: it was an adept answer by Caroline Levitt to not 745 00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:38,440 Speaker 2: answer that question. They better if they're going to do 746 00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,480 Speaker 2: these layoffs, if they're going to get removed people from 747 00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:42,279 Speaker 2: the federal government because of the shutdown, which they have 748 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:44,720 Speaker 2: the authority to do, they got. 749 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:48,480 Speaker 7: To act and trust his cabinet secretaries to identify where 750 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 7: there is waste, fraud and abuse. We pointed out this morning, 751 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:55,560 Speaker 7: or Russfolte tweeted about this morning a Chicago rail project 752 00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:58,880 Speaker 7: that was canceled. We paused two point one billion dollars 753 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:02,800 Speaker 7: in Chicago infrastructure, your projects, specifically the Red Line extension 754 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:06,880 Speaker 7: and the Red and Purple modernization projects. And it's because 755 00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:10,000 Speaker 7: the administration is concerned that the Biden administration was handing 756 00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:13,880 Speaker 7: out taxpayer dollars to pay for this construction based on 757 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 7: DEIDT is reviewing the race based contracting on unconstitutional grounds, 758 00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,759 Speaker 7: and in the meantime, the Department of Transportation funds for 759 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,240 Speaker 7: these projects are on hold. So I guess this answers 760 00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:26,279 Speaker 7: both of your questions. This would be an example of that. 761 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:29,800 Speaker 5: And just because there's so much shut down talk, something different. 762 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:32,880 Speaker 5: What do you guys think about the NFL's decision? 763 00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:36,600 Speaker 2: Would you name Bad Bunny as the Super Bowl halftime performers? 764 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:39,760 Speaker 2: So somebody who has not scheduled shows in the US 765 00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:42,800 Speaker 2: because he says that he's worried the Bad Bunny suing 766 00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:44,360 Speaker 2: bawl question halftime. 767 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:44,880 Speaker 3: Perform is famous. 768 00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:47,200 Speaker 7: Well, look, I know there are many in this room 769 00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:50,080 Speaker 7: who are very anxious to hear the president's response to 770 00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 7: Bad Bunny being the halftime show. 771 00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:54,240 Speaker 5: So I won't get ahead of him. I will reveal 772 00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:56,480 Speaker 5: what he feels about this next time you'll ask him 773 00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:56,839 Speaker 5: a question. 774 00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:59,160 Speaker 7: You're welcome to do that. I have my own feelings 775 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:00,480 Speaker 7: on that, but that's not what I'm up. 776 00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:01,200 Speaker 5: Here to talk about. 777 00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:04,080 Speaker 7: As far as ice be at the Super Bowl, as 778 00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:06,440 Speaker 7: far as I'm aware, there's no tangible plan for that 779 00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:10,520 Speaker 7: in store right now. However, of course, this administration is 780 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 7: always going to arrest and deport illegal immigrants when we 781 00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:15,480 Speaker 7: find them, if they are criminals. 782 00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:17,839 Speaker 5: We're going to do the right thing by our country. Ocky. 783 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:21,480 Speaker 8: Did the President and Russvo decide yesterday in their meeting 784 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:23,560 Speaker 8: which cuts they wanted to make to agencies and which 785 00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:24,480 Speaker 8: ones would be permanent? 786 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:27,160 Speaker 7: Again, I've kind of answered this question a few different 787 00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:28,919 Speaker 7: times now. It's been asked in a few different ways. 788 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:32,680 Speaker 7: Directly continue between the Office of Management and Budget and 789 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:36,000 Speaker 7: cabinet agencies across the board, and they are actively identifying 790 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:38,279 Speaker 7: where these cuts and these layoffs have to be made. 791 00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:41,000 Speaker 2: Translation, they are going to tell you nothing pressed, They're 792 00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:42,319 Speaker 2: going to do it, and then you'll know. 793 00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:46,080 Speaker 8: I wos The President said that if Hamas rejects the proposal, 794 00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:49,200 Speaker 8: that Antnyaku would have his full backing to finish the job. 795 00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,440 Speaker 5: You and report found that Israel was committing genocide at Gaza. 796 00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 5: Does the President have concerns about the civilians being killed, 797 00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 5: the worst thing humanitarian crisis, and are. 798 00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,360 Speaker 8: There limits to what the White House would when it 799 00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:01,480 Speaker 8: comes to Israel's. 800 00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:01,960 Speaker 5: Actions in Gaza. 801 00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:05,440 Speaker 7: Look, the President has deep concerns about all of the 802 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 7: atrocities that have taken place in the Middle East over 803 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:11,480 Speaker 7: the past few years. It's deeply unfortunate that he inherited 804 00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:15,240 Speaker 7: this mess from the Biden administration. If you all recall, 805 00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:17,880 Speaker 7: under President Trump in his first term, the Middle East 806 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:20,880 Speaker 7: was on a pathway for peace and prosperity. There was 807 00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:23,840 Speaker 7: the historic signing of the Abraham Accords. Israel was on 808 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:27,400 Speaker 7: a path to normalization between Arab and Gulf nations, and 809 00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:30,840 Speaker 7: we hope that can continue. But right now, the President 810 00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:33,360 Speaker 7: has made it very clear to Hamas that this is 811 00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:38,120 Speaker 7: an acceptable and detailed proposal that they must accept or 812 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:39,760 Speaker 7: the consequences. 813 00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 5: Are going to be very grave. 814 00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 7: For them, and he has given them a deadline of 815 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:45,279 Speaker 7: Sunday evening at six pm. When I was out here 816 00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,360 Speaker 7: on Wednesday, I told all of you, I'll leave it 817 00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:49,120 Speaker 7: to the President to make that red line, and he 818 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:49,640 Speaker 7: now has. 819 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:51,720 Speaker 5: I think the entire world should hear. 820 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:54,360 Speaker 7: The President of the United States loud and clear and 821 00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:57,400 Speaker 7: Hamas has an opportunity to accept this plan and to 822 00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:00,800 Speaker 7: move forward in a peaceful and prosperous manner in the region, 823 00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:04,279 Speaker 7: and if they don't, the consequences, unfortunately are going to 824 00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 7: be very tragic. 825 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:07,680 Speaker 2: But if you're going to say that, Caroline Levitt, well 826 00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:10,120 Speaker 2: then you have to see it. The President can't backtrack 827 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:13,360 Speaker 2: on that and do redlines like he's Barack Obama. Sunday 828 00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 2: at six is Sunday at six. Either Hamas surrenders or 829 00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:20,440 Speaker 2: it's over. That is what you're saying, and you need 830 00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:21,279 Speaker 2: to be held to. 831 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:24,960 Speaker 7: That consistent with his responsibility to protect the United States 832 00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:28,320 Speaker 7: interests abroad and in furtherance of the US national security 833 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:31,680 Speaker 7: and foreign policy entrance. This is pursuant to his constitutional 834 00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:34,640 Speaker 7: authority as Commander in Chief and the chief executive to 835 00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 7: conduct foreign relations. In each of these cases, Michael, the 836 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:41,200 Speaker 7: vessels have been assessed by the US intelligence community to 837 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:46,080 Speaker 7: be affiliated with designated terrorist organizations engaged at the time 838 00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:49,839 Speaker 7: in trafficking illicit drugs to our country. The President has 839 00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:52,040 Speaker 7: been very clear at dating back to the campaign Trill 840 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:53,680 Speaker 7: that he is always going to do what's in the 841 00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:56,560 Speaker 7: best interests of the American Homeland, and he also promised 842 00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:59,560 Speaker 7: the American people he was going to and the drug 843 00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:02,480 Speaker 7: epidemic that has taken for too many American lives. And 844 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 7: you're seeing those actions play out almost every single day here. 845 00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:09,040 Speaker 2: Question on the shutdown, Caroline, that King Jeffries has said 846 00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:12,680 Speaker 2: that President Trump is in the Presidential Witness Protection Program 847 00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:14,400 Speaker 2: since the shutdown has begun. 848 00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:16,480 Speaker 3: What's the White House's reaction to that. 849 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 7: That's just more ridiculous fodder from Hakim Jeffries. As you 850 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:22,560 Speaker 7: all know, because you're here every day, the President is 851 00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 7: literally working around the clock right now. I think he 852 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:27,759 Speaker 7: has a swearing in ceremony or he already did. He 853 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:30,799 Speaker 7: has several meetings on the books today. He literally works 854 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,200 Speaker 7: twenty four to seven. Anyone who works in this place 855 00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:35,520 Speaker 7: or covers this place as you all do, knows that 856 00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:38,440 Speaker 7: to be true. And Hakeem Jeffries and the Senate Democrats 857 00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:40,239 Speaker 7: should get back to work in a few minutes and 858 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 7: vote to reopen the government. 859 00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:45,320 Speaker 5: Emily, thank you, Erlian. He spoke earlier about. 860 00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:48,920 Speaker 7: The energy and infrastructure projects that Director Vote paused will The. 861 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:52,000 Speaker 8: White House agreed to restore that funding as part of 862 00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:52,600 Speaker 8: the deal to. 863 00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,600 Speaker 5: End the shutdown. Well, I won't make any agreements here. 864 00:53:56,800 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 7: Senate Republicans are talking with their colleagues on the Democrat side, 865 00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:02,759 Speaker 7: but right now Russ Vote is doing what he's been 866 00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:04,800 Speaker 7: tasked to do in the midst of this government shutdown. 867 00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:08,040 Speaker 2: It's a repeated question because of course they want to 868 00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:11,640 Speaker 2: know who's getting cut and when. And as I stated earlier, 869 00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:13,640 Speaker 2: it's very clear that Caroline Levit is not going to 870 00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:16,040 Speaker 2: answer that question, and it's very clear that the White 871 00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:19,080 Speaker 2: House is not going to answer that question. They are 872 00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:22,040 Speaker 2: going to make the cuts when they decide to make them, 873 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:25,280 Speaker 2: and it will happen in one fell swoop. It's gonna 874 00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:28,520 Speaker 2: be like the ending of the Sopranos for a lot 875 00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:30,960 Speaker 2: of people. The screen's just gonna go black and we're 876 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:34,400 Speaker 2: gonna be like what happened here. That's how this is 877 00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:36,560 Speaker 2: going to go down. There will be no tease, there 878 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:38,200 Speaker 2: will be no lead up to it. They'll be no hey, 879 00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:40,720 Speaker 2: get ready to this group, Hey get ridy, that's not coming. 880 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:43,799 Speaker 2: The press has asked this question multiple ways, and yes, 881 00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 2: Caroline Levitt hasn't answered the question, and it's possible that 882 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:47,799 Speaker 2: she doesn't know. 883 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:50,400 Speaker 3: It's possible that she's not allowed to say. 884 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:53,040 Speaker 2: But what's more possible is whether she knows or whether 885 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:56,040 Speaker 2: she's allowed to say is inconsequential. They're not gonna tell anybody. 886 00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:59,320 Speaker 2: They are not going to let that out, which you 887 00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:03,719 Speaker 2: would agree. Smart politics. And by the way, this is 888 00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:08,120 Speaker 2: all politics, the fact that we may have a reduced government, 889 00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:14,520 Speaker 2: which I favor. I wanted that no matter what, and 890 00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:16,319 Speaker 2: if this is the system by which you can get 891 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:20,319 Speaker 2: some of that tone, Lame Chuck Schumer, keep it here. 892 00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:20,440 Speaker 8: Well. 893 00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 2: I'm more of the press conference and the update on Hamas. 894 00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:27,279 Speaker 2: This is tony cats today, their city, Portland being one 895 00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:27,560 Speaker 2: of them. 896 00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:29,880 Speaker 5: They should do the right thing by their citizens, Brian. 897 00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:32,080 Speaker 7: They should call the president, they should call the White 898 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:34,440 Speaker 7: House and say we want to work with you. And 899 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:37,759 Speaker 7: in Memphis we are seeing some cooperation, as you saw 900 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:40,640 Speaker 7: from that billboard. The people of Memphis are loving this 901 00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:43,120 Speaker 7: and they are very grateful for the federal government's efforts. 902 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:47,279 Speaker 7: And federal law enforcement is there. We're working alongside local 903 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:50,200 Speaker 7: law enforcement. We'd like to see it ramped up a 904 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,880 Speaker 7: little bit because we want to make progress and we 905 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,400 Speaker 7: want to asrest as many bad criminals as we can. 906 00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 7: Since Monday, I do have some updated statistics from the 907 00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:02,319 Speaker 7: Homeland Security until this morning. Since Monday, one hundred and 908 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:05,239 Speaker 7: fifty three arrests have been made in Memphis, including five 909 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:08,759 Speaker 7: gang members, forty eight illegal guns have been seized, and 910 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:11,680 Speaker 7: five missing children have already been recovered. 911 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:15,000 Speaker 2: It seems pretty clear that law and order is something 912 00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:17,440 Speaker 2: that the vast majority of Americans want, and it seems 913 00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 2: very clear that the cities that are saying, how dare 914 00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:26,080 Speaker 2: you even notice that we have crime are losing a 915 00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:32,120 Speaker 2: public relations battle. So the argument of ice wearing masks 916 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:37,520 Speaker 2: and ice seizing people, and our issue is that we 917 00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:41,120 Speaker 2: have cities and elected leaders who don't believe that illegal 918 00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:44,480 Speaker 2: means anything, that somehow legal is nothing more than a 919 00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:47,680 Speaker 2: state of mind. And you can't run a city, a state, 920 00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:51,520 Speaker 2: or a country that way. You simply cannot allow these 921 00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:53,319 Speaker 2: things to occur and think that you're going to have 922 00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:56,799 Speaker 2: a nation that's going to thrive. Tony Kats, Tony Kats today, 923 00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:58,600 Speaker 2: Good to be with you. The White House briefing continues. 924 00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:00,520 Speaker 2: Of course, we're in day three of them shutdown. There 925 00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:03,440 Speaker 2: a lot to talk about the violence taking place in Portland. 926 00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:07,240 Speaker 2: That's what's being discussed here, and this idea of sending 927 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,799 Speaker 2: in federal resources to help the states being different than 928 00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 2: DC and how you can send things in. But I 929 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:16,040 Speaker 2: do believe that Red states should be much more willing 930 00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:18,960 Speaker 2: to bring people in to try and reduce levels of 931 00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 2: crime and to be of assistance. And certainly the people 932 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:26,040 Speaker 2: voted to remove illegal immigrants and that should continue a pace. 933 00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:28,800 Speaker 2: We go back to the press conference with Caroline Lovitt. 934 00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:32,280 Speaker 7: Second is a clean continuing resolution to fund the United 935 00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:35,720 Speaker 7: States government? What did the Democrats want in their continuing resolution? 936 00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:39,880 Speaker 7: They inserted a provision to undo a provision in the 937 00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,760 Speaker 7: Working Families Tax Cut, the One Big Beautiful Bill that 938 00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:49,320 Speaker 7: ended taxpayer funded healthcare illegal benefits for legal aliens. Democrats 939 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,919 Speaker 7: proposal would require Medicaid to pay more for emergency care 940 00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:56,440 Speaker 7: provided to illegal aliens than Medicaid does for American patients 941 00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:59,800 Speaker 7: who are disabled, elderly, or children. And this bill would 942 00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,720 Speaker 7: have also allowed California to continue a gimmick that funds 943 00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:04,600 Speaker 7: its Medicaid for illegals program. 944 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:06,160 Speaker 5: Those are things that we ended. 945 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:09,080 Speaker 7: The Trump administration ended with the passage and the signage 946 00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:11,080 Speaker 7: of the One Big Beautiful Bill. And it is an 947 00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:15,920 Speaker 7: undisputed fact, a fact that under the Biden administration, illegal 948 00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:20,800 Speaker 7: aliens were absolutely receiving taxpayer funded healthcare benefits. In fact, 949 00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:24,600 Speaker 7: in fiscal year twenty twenty four, Medicaid costs for emergency 950 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:28,640 Speaker 7: services for illegal immigrants skyrocketed by one hundred and forty 951 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:32,360 Speaker 7: two percent from the previous year to nine point one 952 00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:36,360 Speaker 7: billion dollars. That's nine point one billion taxpayer dollars that 953 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:40,520 Speaker 7: were going to emergency services for illegals. Between President Trump's 954 00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:43,760 Speaker 7: last full fiscal year under his first administration in Joe 955 00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:47,840 Speaker 7: Biden's last full fiscal year, Medicaid spending on emergency services 956 00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:50,960 Speaker 7: for illegal immigrants nearly tripled. There was an increase of 957 00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:54,400 Speaker 7: one hundred and ninety six percent between twenty twenty and 958 00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:55,320 Speaker 7: twenty twenty four. 959 00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:57,160 Speaker 5: And I have a chart here for you, and I'm 960 00:58:57,200 --> 00:58:58,440 Speaker 5: more than happy to email it to you. 961 00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 7: I'd also like to add, because some were asking dishonest 962 00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:05,360 Speaker 7: questions yesterday about emergency rooms in Southern California. According to 963 00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:08,840 Speaker 7: healthcare professionals, in twenty twenty three, under the Biden administration, 964 00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:13,760 Speaker 7: Southern California's quote entire healthcare system was being bombarded with 965 00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:17,760 Speaker 7: illegal immigrants, enforcing American patients to endure longer wait times. 966 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:21,680 Speaker 7: In Denver, Colorado, the CEO of Denver Health stated that 967 00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:25,920 Speaker 7: eight thousand illegal immigrants made twenty thousand visits to the 968 00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:29,800 Speaker 7: city's health system in twenty twenty three, leaving an uncompensated 969 00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:31,040 Speaker 7: bill totaling. 970 00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:31,960 Speaker 5: Over ten million dollars. 971 00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:34,360 Speaker 7: So when a legal alien goes to the emergency room, 972 00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 7: who's paying for it? 973 00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:37,439 Speaker 5: The American taxpayer. 974 00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:40,200 Speaker 7: The main safety night hospital in Denver had to turn 975 00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:43,720 Speaker 7: away patients due to the massive influx of illegal immigrants 976 00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:46,640 Speaker 7: into the community. And you see health hospitals in twenty 977 00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:50,480 Speaker 7: twenty four reported their system was under stress from an 978 00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:53,400 Speaker 7: increasing number of migrants as a result. According to the 979 00:59:53,440 --> 00:59:57,040 Speaker 7: head of emergency departments and urgent cares across the hospital system, 980 00:59:57,320 --> 00:59:59,320 Speaker 7: quote access is impeded for everyone. 981 00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:02,080 Speaker 2: Bus if you're gonna hit them with hard facts, hit 982 01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:04,680 Speaker 2: them with hard facts. We're gonna deny these things are happening. 983 01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:07,880 Speaker 2: We're gonna deny the costs. If someone wants to argue 984 01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:09,920 Speaker 2: that the cost is worth it, let them argue that, 985 01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:12,080 Speaker 2: and then the people will vote. And what they voted 986 01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:14,320 Speaker 2: for is to say the cost is not worth it, 987 01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:21,800 Speaker 2: the cost is not worth it. That's not angry, that 988 01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:26,400 Speaker 2: is not vicious, And yes, these things should stop because 989 01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,760 Speaker 2: it will further deter people from trying to enter the 990 01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:31,640 Speaker 2: United States illegally, which is something we should be in 991 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:34,439 Speaker 2: favor of, as opposed to what the Biden administration did, 992 01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:36,160 Speaker 2: which said, come on in. 993 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:38,560 Speaker 3: Remember we haven't changed the law. 994 01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:42,640 Speaker 2: People forget it was part of that speech to the 995 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:45,720 Speaker 2: Joint Session from President Trump. We didn't need to change 996 01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:47,920 Speaker 2: the law. We just needed a president willing to utilize 997 01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:52,200 Speaker 2: the law. That's all that's happening. You're upset with the 998 01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:55,280 Speaker 2: laws on the books, tell your Democratic comrades to go 999 01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:56,160 Speaker 2: change the laws. 1000 01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 3: Let's see if they can get those passed. 1001 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:03,320 Speaker 10: Good gosh being reported about former President Biden's DHS and 1002 01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:07,880 Speaker 10: CSA placed peaceful January sixth protesters and even Americans who 1003 01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:11,520 Speaker 10: refused to wear masks during covid Onto watch lists usually 1004 01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:14,520 Speaker 10: reserved for terrorists. Most of these people were not charged 1005 01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:15,200 Speaker 10: with crimes. 1006 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:17,320 Speaker 5: Does the White House have a comment. 1007 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:19,840 Speaker 10: On the prior administration violating the free speech and due 1008 01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 10: process of these Americans? And where is the outreach from 1009 01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:27,040 Speaker 10: the lack back leans to stand for due prompts that 1010 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:29,440 Speaker 10: I have another question about protecting journalists from anti. 1011 01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:32,200 Speaker 7: Sure well character your first point. Please send me that 1012 01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:35,000 Speaker 7: report that's certainly very concerning. I haven't seen it myself, 1013 01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:37,480 Speaker 7: but if indeed that was happening, it's something I'm sure 1014 01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:40,560 Speaker 7: the Department of Justice and the FBI would be worthy 1015 01:01:40,560 --> 01:01:41,160 Speaker 7: of looking into. 1016 01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:44,200 Speaker 10: Will and journalists, as you mentioned earlier, are being increasingly 1017 01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:45,800 Speaker 10: attacked by elect as protesters. 1018 01:01:46,040 --> 01:01:49,720 Speaker 5: I was actually assaulted outside of President Trump's United Nations speech, and. 1019 01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:52,080 Speaker 10: I think the White House was aware that important journalist 1020 01:01:52,200 --> 01:01:55,280 Speaker 10: was almost blinded by Nantifa protester. This has been a 1021 01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:57,919 Speaker 10: problem that's gone on for years, and police often say 1022 01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:00,000 Speaker 10: that their hands are tied. Does the White House house 1023 01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:03,120 Speaker 10: a plan or plan on the shooing a statement maybe 1024 01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:06,200 Speaker 10: discouraging this violence against journalists out on the streetweight meet 1025 01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:07,600 Speaker 10: and so many others in this room. 1026 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:09,880 Speaker 7: Well, I hope that my statement earlier in the briefing 1027 01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:12,600 Speaker 7: served that purpose, But of course we can done violence 1028 01:02:12,640 --> 01:02:15,480 Speaker 7: against anyone in this country, and journalists as well who 1029 01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:18,240 Speaker 7: are exercising their First Amendment right. And there have been 1030 01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:21,760 Speaker 7: so many incredible independent journalists across the country who have 1031 01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:25,480 Speaker 7: gone undercover within Antifa and really have come to understand 1032 01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:28,720 Speaker 7: how this is a growing domestic terrorism threat inside of 1033 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:30,880 Speaker 7: our country. And I would encourage maybe some of you 1034 01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:32,800 Speaker 7: in this room to get outside the beltwayh and go 1035 01:02:32,840 --> 01:02:35,960 Speaker 7: do some of that undercover investigative reporting, because it is 1036 01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:37,320 Speaker 7: really incredible. 1037 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:37,320 Speaker 5: What they found. 1038 01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:39,200 Speaker 7: I met with one of them in my office yesterday 1039 01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:43,000 Speaker 7: and they're doing very dangerous work in difficult circumstances. And 1040 01:02:43,120 --> 01:02:46,360 Speaker 7: Antifa is a very violent group, as you've experienced and 1041 01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:48,080 Speaker 7: many others in the media have as well. 1042 01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:52,240 Speaker 2: It was Representative Dan Goldman, it was President and Biden 1043 01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 2: who said Antifa is not a group, It's just an 1044 01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:56,800 Speaker 2: idea that was never true, that was never factual, it 1045 01:02:56,840 --> 01:03:01,720 Speaker 2: was never honest ever once ever. And referring to it 1046 01:03:01,720 --> 01:03:03,920 Speaker 2: as domestic terror is correct and accurate. 1047 01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:06,760 Speaker 3: It is what it is, what it is. 1048 01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:12,200 Speaker 2: But when you see journalists being attacked, is it okay 1049 01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:16,200 Speaker 2: because they're not journalists you like? I mean, that is 1050 01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:20,000 Speaker 2: the argument. Do we believe in these laws that we 1051 01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:23,280 Speaker 2: have or do we not? This is the Charlie Kirk 1052 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:27,840 Speaker 2: assassination question all over again. That's okay. Well, he said 1053 01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:30,840 Speaker 2: things that were mean, what does that matter? He was 1054 01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:33,880 Speaker 2: he was he hated this group and that group. I 1055 01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:36,280 Speaker 2: don't believe that to be true. But let's say he did. 1056 01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:40,080 Speaker 2: What does that matter? He should be shot? In the 1057 01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:42,000 Speaker 2: neck for the world to see in front of his 1058 01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:46,440 Speaker 2: wife and kids. That is okay, Well, it's understandable. No, 1059 01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:49,919 Speaker 2: it's not. In no rational society with no rational people, 1060 01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:54,560 Speaker 2: is that understandable? It is everything we are not. Journalists 1061 01:03:54,560 --> 01:03:58,800 Speaker 2: being attacked is everything we are not. So one needs 1062 01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:01,680 Speaker 2: to ask why is it that there are journalists who 1063 01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:06,840 Speaker 2: are so incredibly silent? Why aren't they outraged? Why aren't 1064 01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:12,640 Speaker 2: they speaking so with such great voice? Jim Acosta doesn't 1065 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:15,880 Speaker 2: get his White House press credentials, and it's the end 1066 01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:23,800 Speaker 2: of civilization as we know it. Journalists get assaulted and 1067 01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:32,200 Speaker 2: who but Trump bad? That is a worthy conversation and 1068 01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:38,040 Speaker 2: really does show the the ideological rift. Look what these 1069 01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:39,840 Speaker 2: people will find accept when look at what it is 1070 01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:44,200 Speaker 2: that they ignore. We should not ignore it, like we 1071 01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:47,720 Speaker 2: should not ignore the fact that Hamas has turned down 1072 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:55,080 Speaker 2: turned down the peace deal. So if Hamas won't agree 1073 01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:59,760 Speaker 2: to peace, how is Israel this genocidal group which is 1074 01:04:59,760 --> 01:05:02,439 Speaker 2: all been a lie? I'm going to break that down. 1075 01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:04,560 Speaker 2: Keep it here. This is Tony Kats today. As I 1076 01:05:04,720 --> 01:05:10,560 Speaker 2: arrived at services yesterday Jewish Holiday yesterday. That's why I 1077 01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:13,200 Speaker 2: was out. Thank you to Andrew Langer for filling in 1078 01:05:13,280 --> 01:05:15,760 Speaker 2: Tony Katz Tony Katz today, good to be with you. 1079 01:05:18,320 --> 01:05:21,760 Speaker 2: The news had reported about this attack at a synagogue 1080 01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:26,920 Speaker 2: in the United Kingdom where two people were killed. Someone 1081 01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:32,160 Speaker 2: came in with an ife, just stabbing. That's what happened 1082 01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:37,520 Speaker 2: on arguably the holiest day of the year for Juice 1083 01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:40,439 Speaker 2: day called yung Kapoor. It's a day of atonement. It's 1084 01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:43,520 Speaker 2: the day of saying, hey, this is what I did 1085 01:05:43,560 --> 01:05:48,520 Speaker 2: wrong in the last year, whether by I willfully did 1086 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:51,360 Speaker 2: it or I didn't right things I should have done 1087 01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:53,720 Speaker 2: and I didn't do things I've done that. 1088 01:05:53,720 --> 01:05:54,480 Speaker 3: I shouldn't have done. 1089 01:05:55,560 --> 01:06:00,160 Speaker 2: The chance for self reflection, introspection and how do I 1090 01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:04,800 Speaker 2: do things better. As a concept, I've always loved it, always, always, 1091 01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:10,080 Speaker 2: always have have loved it. And as that news was breaking, 1092 01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:14,560 Speaker 2: pulled into my synagogue to notice that usually that we 1093 01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:18,000 Speaker 2: have a police there right higher off duty of police officers, 1094 01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:21,640 Speaker 2: they weren't there. What happened? Why weren't they there? This 1095 01:06:21,680 --> 01:06:25,880 Speaker 2: is a question for others. How any city isn't noticing 1096 01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:30,000 Speaker 2: what's going on with holidays. You know, police officers at 1097 01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 2: a church on Eastern just park somebody in the parking lot. 1098 01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:36,400 Speaker 2: They're parked somewhere. How a city could not do that 1099 01:06:36,520 --> 01:06:41,880 Speaker 2: is beyond me. Politically, I think it's just a move 1100 01:06:41,960 --> 01:06:49,600 Speaker 2: of radical patheticness, and so of course, being people who 1101 01:06:49,640 --> 01:06:55,120 Speaker 2: are going to ensure their own protection. There were people 1102 01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:59,960 Speaker 2: walking around checking the outside, checking the inside, covering hallways, 1103 01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:03,720 Speaker 2: doing the things. Churches have been doing this for a 1104 01:07:03,760 --> 01:07:07,240 Speaker 2: long long time with their security teams, and they've always 1105 01:07:07,240 --> 01:07:10,560 Speaker 2: been right. And you have heard me argue that any 1106 01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:13,920 Speaker 2: faith leader who says you shouldn't bring a gun to 1107 01:07:14,040 --> 01:07:16,320 Speaker 2: this place of worship is someone who should be fired. 1108 01:07:16,840 --> 01:07:20,040 Speaker 2: You should find a different place of worship. All places 1109 01:07:20,040 --> 01:07:25,000 Speaker 2: of worship are soft targets, and you should protect yourself 1110 01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:28,320 Speaker 2: and the ones you love. Buy guns by AMMO, get trained, 1111 01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:33,080 Speaker 2: bring them to your place of worship. Do not listen 1112 01:07:33,120 --> 01:07:38,360 Speaker 2: to people who say no, they're wrong. Yes, I think 1113 01:07:38,440 --> 01:07:41,480 Speaker 2: it's an abomination that you would have to do that 1114 01:07:41,960 --> 01:07:46,560 Speaker 2: in order to pray peacefully. It's a greater abomination to 1115 01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:51,080 Speaker 2: let people be stabbed to death. This guy drives his 1116 01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:54,800 Speaker 2: truck into a Mormon church. The people there check to 1117 01:07:54,880 --> 01:07:56,960 Speaker 2: CVS okay, and he starts shooting them. 1118 01:07:58,520 --> 01:07:59,840 Speaker 3: He set the church on fire. 1119 01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:05,160 Speaker 2: It is a horrifying story. It's happening far too often, 1120 01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:10,680 Speaker 2: and it's happening because people don't know how to handle themselves, 1121 01:08:10,720 --> 01:08:12,560 Speaker 2: don't know how to control their emotions, or they are 1122 01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:15,560 Speaker 2: encouraged to do so well. These people are so bad 1123 01:08:15,600 --> 01:08:19,760 Speaker 2: something has to be done about them. Of course, this 1124 01:08:19,840 --> 01:08:23,000 Speaker 2: is what happens when you have these college students who 1125 01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:27,600 Speaker 2: are all adults, and these professors who radicalize these students, 1126 01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:31,800 Speaker 2: when you have elected officials and others who refuse to 1127 01:08:31,840 --> 01:08:35,320 Speaker 2: recognize that Hamas is a terrorist organization. Murdered twelve hundred 1128 01:08:35,360 --> 01:08:37,080 Speaker 2: is rallies, and these railies are going to fight back. 1129 01:08:37,840 --> 01:08:39,800 Speaker 2: I've got people yelling me on social media, look at 1130 01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:41,839 Speaker 2: all the journalists that have been killed. I think it's awful. 1131 01:08:44,360 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 2: I will ask a question about which journalists and what 1132 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:50,640 Speaker 2: they were actually doing. I will ask a question about 1133 01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:54,600 Speaker 2: what levels of support they were giving as the un was. 1134 01:08:54,640 --> 01:08:57,920 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, these un people unrote was actually in 1135 01:08:57,960 --> 01:08:59,920 Speaker 2: the planning of October seventh. 1136 01:09:02,400 --> 01:09:03,599 Speaker 3: I'm gonna ask that question. 1137 01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:07,920 Speaker 2: But in the end, all the killing, all the war 1138 01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:13,200 Speaker 2: is Hamas, which refuses to surrender and give back the 1139 01:09:13,240 --> 01:09:16,200 Speaker 2: hostages and doesn't care about the Palestinian people. Well, now 1140 01:09:16,240 --> 01:09:19,599 Speaker 2: we have this new thing. You have this peace plan 1141 01:09:20,360 --> 01:09:22,880 Speaker 2: that was put forth by President Trump and agreed to 1142 01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:26,599 Speaker 2: by the Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Yaho. And by 1143 01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:28,559 Speaker 2: the way, if you like Benjamin et Yahoo you don't, 1144 01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:31,080 Speaker 2: that part doesn't matter. He has a lot to answer for. 1145 01:09:33,400 --> 01:09:37,920 Speaker 2: But this peace deal a return of the hostages. IDF 1146 01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:43,120 Speaker 2: pulls out Hamas, surrenders and gives up their arms. Hamas 1147 01:09:43,120 --> 01:09:49,480 Speaker 2: has rejected the deal. They've rejected the deal. That's the reporting. 1148 01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:57,000 Speaker 2: The guy who planned the terrorist attacks says, this doesn't work. 1149 01:09:57,080 --> 01:09:59,560 Speaker 2: Hamas doesn't get to achieve any of its goals. Hamas's 1150 01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:02,400 Speaker 2: goals is the destruction of Israel and then the destruction 1151 01:10:02,439 --> 01:10:05,680 Speaker 2: of Western civilization. They're on record. We don't have to 1152 01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:09,320 Speaker 2: question this. But now for all those people, all those 1153 01:10:09,400 --> 01:10:14,760 Speaker 2: useful idiots, all those really gross fools, all those people 1154 01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:19,080 Speaker 2: who are confused, all those people who think that, through 1155 01:10:19,640 --> 01:10:24,639 Speaker 2: bad reporting, that Israel's the aggressor here. Hamas won't accept 1156 01:10:24,640 --> 01:10:28,360 Speaker 2: the peace deal. How in the world is Israel guilty 1157 01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:31,240 Speaker 2: of a genocide? Which is a gross thing to say 1158 01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:34,920 Speaker 2: in and of itself, it's a total lie. Hamas won't 1159 01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:38,920 Speaker 2: accept the deal. Hamas is being given free passage safe 1160 01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:41,320 Speaker 2: passage out of gods and wherever they want to go. 1161 01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:45,640 Speaker 2: They won't accept the deal. And they won't accept the 1162 01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:50,240 Speaker 2: deal because accepting the deal isn't what they're about. Killing 1163 01:10:50,320 --> 01:10:53,720 Speaker 2: Jews is what they're about. Then destroying Western civilization, the 1164 01:10:53,760 --> 01:10:57,400 Speaker 2: worldwide caliphate is what they're about. This is obvious and clear, 1165 01:10:57,720 --> 01:11:01,439 Speaker 2: and their own statements make it true, proven by rejecting this, 1166 01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:04,720 Speaker 2: that any conversation about Israeli genocide is a lie and 1167 01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:09,280 Speaker 2: a fraud. I don't know how the leftists are going 1168 01:11:09,360 --> 01:11:12,559 Speaker 2: to deal with this. You know, this fact that's hitting 1169 01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:14,920 Speaker 2: them in the face. This is Tony Katz. 1170 01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:25,480 Speaker 1: Today lie from vall Hartbyer and the Crossroads of America. 1171 01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:30,880 Speaker 2: It's Tony Katz today, no jobs numbers, and the market 1172 01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:33,360 Speaker 2: still goes up. Now by the time you hear this, 1173 01:11:33,479 --> 01:11:35,719 Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean, you might be getting the podcast, 1174 01:11:36,160 --> 01:11:39,360 Speaker 2: might be listening to it, who knows when. But I mean, 1175 01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:42,559 Speaker 2: there's a moment where the Dow is up three seventy, 1176 01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:48,280 Speaker 2: So I guess this shutdown doesn't matter. That's my take 1177 01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:55,400 Speaker 2: that the shutdown does not matter. The market seemingly looking 1178 01:11:55,400 --> 01:11:58,200 Speaker 2: at some other things. Tony Kats Tony Kats Today, guys 1179 01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:01,559 Speaker 2: what is going on? Find everything I do over at 1180 01:12:01,600 --> 01:12:03,120 Speaker 2: Tony Katz dot com. 1181 01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:05,120 Speaker 3: You should do that. You should do that immediately, if 1182 01:12:05,160 --> 01:12:05,759 Speaker 3: not sooner. 1183 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:12,800 Speaker 2: The your labor statistics not able to put out any 1184 01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:18,080 Speaker 2: data because of the shutdown, the Schumer shutdown, the Schumer siesta. 1185 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:19,880 Speaker 2: I don't care what you call the thing. It makes 1186 01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:22,759 Speaker 2: no difference to me. All I know is Chuck Schumer 1187 01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:29,639 Speaker 2: is taking all the beatings on this, of course, without question. 1188 01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:32,320 Speaker 2: And I love that there's this story over there at 1189 01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:35,160 Speaker 2: the Wall Street Journal. White House sends his political risk 1190 01:12:35,200 --> 01:12:39,360 Speaker 2: on healthcare despite shutdown. Bravado. What are you talking about? 1191 01:12:40,520 --> 01:12:43,559 Speaker 2: I put forth, Now, does anybody actually understand what is 1192 01:12:43,600 --> 01:12:49,920 Speaker 2: being discussed regarding extending Obamacare subsidies? The answer is no. Now, 1193 01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:52,639 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say totally no. Some people get it. 1194 01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:57,440 Speaker 2: Most people are like, my gosh, this government is completely incompetent. 1195 01:12:57,880 --> 01:13:00,760 Speaker 2: These people can't figure out a budget, These people can't 1196 01:13:00,760 --> 01:13:04,160 Speaker 2: figure out how to work together. These people are all children. 1197 01:13:04,320 --> 01:13:07,160 Speaker 2: And if I ran my life like this, I'd be destitute. 1198 01:13:08,640 --> 01:13:11,640 Speaker 2: But no, they always have a never ending supply of 1199 01:13:11,680 --> 01:13:15,360 Speaker 2: cash because it's ours. Don't get me wrong, I'm disgusted 1200 01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:18,320 Speaker 2: and that the idea that this is just a continuing 1201 01:13:18,360 --> 01:13:22,799 Speaker 2: resolution to get to November. I don't know if everybody's 1202 01:13:22,840 --> 01:13:25,400 Speaker 2: aware of this. All this cr does is get us 1203 01:13:25,400 --> 01:13:27,519 Speaker 2: to November twenty first, when we're gonna have to do 1204 01:13:27,560 --> 01:13:33,080 Speaker 2: this again. So this idea of the Obamacare subsidies, this 1205 01:13:33,120 --> 01:13:34,720 Speaker 2: could have been done for November. They could have been 1206 01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:38,599 Speaker 2: working on it. No, it had to be done right now. Why. Oh, 1207 01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:40,240 Speaker 2: because you had to make it a big deal right 1208 01:13:40,240 --> 01:13:42,920 Speaker 2: now to show that you're fighting for the American people. Oh, 1209 01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:47,360 Speaker 2: it's silly, And that's my argument. This from the Wall 1210 01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:51,200 Speaker 2: Street Journal, white House senses political risk on healthcare despite 1211 01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:55,919 Speaker 2: government shutdown or despite shutdown bravado, no, no, no. 1212 01:13:56,920 --> 01:13:58,880 Speaker 3: Anything can be turned against you. 1213 01:13:59,200 --> 01:14:04,160 Speaker 2: And with this ten percent, the story here is Chuck 1214 01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:10,960 Speaker 2: Schumer has failed epically because people are being peeled away 1215 01:14:12,200 --> 01:14:14,920 Speaker 2: slowly but surely, bit by bit. By the time you 1216 01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:18,519 Speaker 2: hear this, Depending on when you hear this, it could 1217 01:14:18,520 --> 01:14:22,080 Speaker 2: be over right. Maybe you get the podcast version and 1218 01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:23,720 Speaker 2: you don't hear this till tomorrow and it's like, oh, yeah, 1219 01:14:23,760 --> 01:14:29,120 Speaker 2: there's no more shutdown. That's the point. What is this idea? 1220 01:14:30,479 --> 01:14:35,400 Speaker 2: First things First, we set it here that it is 1221 01:14:35,640 --> 01:14:39,600 Speaker 2: very clear and very possible that Trump could take a 1222 01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:43,640 Speaker 2: look at extending Obamacare subsidies, which sunset at the end 1223 01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:46,320 Speaker 2: of twenty twenty five, and say, you know what, this 1224 01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:48,840 Speaker 2: is a good one for me. This is a win 1225 01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:52,160 Speaker 2: for me. I'm saving healthcare. I care about everybody. It's 1226 01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:55,240 Speaker 2: a first rule of trump Isms, trump wins. Second rule 1227 01:14:55,240 --> 01:14:57,000 Speaker 2: of trump Ism is that a deal can always be 1228 01:14:57,080 --> 01:14:59,120 Speaker 2: made as long as it adheres to the first rule 1229 01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:03,280 Speaker 2: of trump Ism. And according to sources, when they had 1230 01:15:03,320 --> 01:15:06,559 Speaker 2: the meeting with you had a speaker Mike Johnson and 1231 01:15:06,640 --> 01:15:09,840 Speaker 2: the Senate Majority Leader John Thune, both Republicans. Then you 1232 01:15:09,880 --> 01:15:12,280 Speaker 2: had a keen Jeffries and Chuck Schumer from the House 1233 01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:15,400 Speaker 2: and the Senate the Democrats, both of them failed continguliaries 1234 01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:18,160 Speaker 2: who need to be replaced as leaders. I'm sorry to 1235 01:15:18,280 --> 01:15:24,640 Speaker 2: tune to neither. What this is not Nancy Pelosi leadership. 1236 01:15:25,080 --> 01:15:28,000 Speaker 2: This is they cannot herd the cats together. They're getting 1237 01:15:28,080 --> 01:15:30,640 Speaker 2: outflanked by their progressive left, even though they are the 1238 01:15:30,640 --> 01:15:34,439 Speaker 2: progressive left. They are getting outflanked by the Republicans. They're 1239 01:15:34,479 --> 01:15:39,800 Speaker 2: being beaten on every single level. These are not wartime conticuliaries. 1240 01:15:40,080 --> 01:15:42,160 Speaker 2: They are not. Now some people are gonna say Tony, 1241 01:15:42,160 --> 01:15:45,400 Speaker 2: it's conciliary, not consinguliary. You know what, I'm just gonna 1242 01:15:45,439 --> 01:15:48,680 Speaker 2: go with it, and I hope you do too. They 1243 01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:51,799 Speaker 2: can't fight, they don't know how to fight. And Trump 1244 01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:53,479 Speaker 2: can see an issue and say, I can see how 1245 01:15:53,479 --> 01:15:55,519 Speaker 2: that helps me, and then turn it into his issue. 1246 01:15:56,920 --> 01:15:59,759 Speaker 2: Inside the White House, aides are discussing proposals to extend 1247 01:15:59,800 --> 01:16:03,120 Speaker 2: the hands subsidies for Affordable Care Act health insurance plans. 1248 01:16:03,520 --> 01:16:06,639 Speaker 2: No kidding. You know who said that first? We did, 1249 01:16:07,160 --> 01:16:10,800 Speaker 2: but we said it like this. We said, Trump is 1250 01:16:10,840 --> 01:16:13,080 Speaker 2: gonna take whatever it is they're talking about, turn it 1251 01:16:13,120 --> 01:16:15,280 Speaker 2: into his subject and say look what I did for you. 1252 01:16:16,040 --> 01:16:18,640 Speaker 2: The first rule of trump Ism is Trump wins. The 1253 01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:21,280 Speaker 2: second rule of trump Ism is a deal can always 1254 01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:23,719 Speaker 2: be made as long as it adheres to the first 1255 01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:24,639 Speaker 2: rule of trump Ism. 1256 01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:25,840 Speaker 3: Game over. 1257 01:16:26,200 --> 01:16:30,880 Speaker 2: We saw this coming a mile away. We saw it. 1258 01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:35,920 Speaker 2: All Democrats are going to try their best to say, 1259 01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:38,880 Speaker 2: look what we did. We got President Trump to yield, 1260 01:16:39,000 --> 01:16:41,840 Speaker 2: to kneel to this and that, and Trump's going to say, guys, 1261 01:16:41,880 --> 01:16:44,240 Speaker 2: these people are ridiculous. So I always knew this was important. 1262 01:16:44,320 --> 01:16:45,840 Speaker 3: That's why I did this, and that's why I did that. 1263 01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:47,559 Speaker 3: And that's why I did the other Look what I 1264 01:16:47,600 --> 01:16:48,519 Speaker 3: did for you. You're welcome. 1265 01:16:48,640 --> 01:16:51,439 Speaker 2: These democrats are so intransitent, but not me. I'm working 1266 01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:54,320 Speaker 2: for the people. Hey, don't forget. I'm the best guy 1267 01:16:54,320 --> 01:16:56,040 Speaker 2: in the world. Now. Everybody tell me how great I am. 1268 01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:58,479 Speaker 2: And that's right. That's the part that drives me nuts. 1269 01:16:58,600 --> 01:17:02,559 Speaker 2: I watching cabinet meeting is now very very difficult. President Trump, 1270 01:17:02,760 --> 01:17:05,760 Speaker 2: you give me the air that I breathed. Could we 1271 01:17:05,880 --> 01:17:09,400 Speaker 2: just stop it? Just stop it, mister President. You asked 1272 01:17:09,479 --> 01:17:12,000 Speaker 2: us to do something. You said, boom, here's what we've done. 1273 01:17:12,080 --> 01:17:15,240 Speaker 2: That's pretty logical. That happens in any cabinet meeting. Now, 1274 01:17:15,280 --> 01:17:18,360 Speaker 2: maybe you don't remember that from Joe Biden cabinet meetings 1275 01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:21,160 Speaker 2: because there were none, and if there was one, it 1276 01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:24,400 Speaker 2: was run by Joe Biden, because Joe Biden was incapable 1277 01:17:24,400 --> 01:17:27,120 Speaker 2: of running any cabinet meeting. Thank you, Cleveland, good night. 1278 01:17:27,720 --> 01:17:31,240 Speaker 2: People still want to argue that he was on it, 1279 01:17:31,560 --> 01:17:34,000 Speaker 2: that he was sharp as attack do. People still want 1280 01:17:34,040 --> 01:17:36,880 Speaker 2: to argue that Hamas is interested in peace. I mean, 1281 01:17:36,960 --> 01:17:40,120 Speaker 2: if we're going to argue ridiculous things, argue Hamas is 1282 01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:42,640 Speaker 2: interested in peace and Joe Biden was in charge of 1283 01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:47,080 Speaker 2: his administration. Go ahead, two absolutely ridiculous things that are 1284 01:17:47,120 --> 01:17:52,040 Speaker 2: proven lies by the basic data. But we all knew 1285 01:17:52,040 --> 01:17:56,080 Speaker 2: this was coming. We said this was coming. As we 1286 01:17:56,120 --> 01:17:58,080 Speaker 2: often discuss here, it's not that you and I are 1287 01:17:58,080 --> 01:18:01,400 Speaker 2: really smarter than anybody else. It's that we're more honest. 1288 01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:04,000 Speaker 2: We know what Trump is, we know what he's like. 1289 01:18:04,280 --> 01:18:06,639 Speaker 2: We know the good, we know the bad. Oh my gosh, 1290 01:18:06,680 --> 01:18:08,479 Speaker 2: I'm gonna start thinking the facts of life theme song. 1291 01:18:08,720 --> 01:18:11,840 Speaker 3: We understand this. Tooty understands it too. 1292 01:18:14,120 --> 01:18:17,680 Speaker 2: The closed door hand ringing stands in contrast to the 1293 01:18:17,680 --> 01:18:21,080 Speaker 2: public bravado conveyed by the president's top advisors. 1294 01:18:22,240 --> 01:18:26,160 Speaker 3: Hand ringing, this is all nuts. 1295 01:18:26,320 --> 01:18:30,320 Speaker 2: There is a great example of an absolutely bull crap story. 1296 01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:34,439 Speaker 2: That's it's the woman on the plane. That mother blanking 1297 01:18:34,479 --> 01:18:39,080 Speaker 2: story is not real. No, everybody knew what was coming. 1298 01:18:41,080 --> 01:18:44,439 Speaker 2: It didn't take work. But they have to go sell 1299 01:18:44,479 --> 01:18:46,640 Speaker 2: their paper, they have to go sell their subscriptions. 1300 01:18:46,640 --> 01:18:49,200 Speaker 3: That this is silly. 1301 01:18:49,880 --> 01:18:52,880 Speaker 2: Republican strategist wit airs it has the potential to be 1302 01:18:52,880 --> 01:18:55,559 Speaker 2: a significant issue. Whether it becomes what or not depends 1303 01:18:55,600 --> 01:18:58,720 Speaker 2: upon the course of the election. No, no, no, no, 1304 01:18:58,920 --> 01:19:01,840 Speaker 2: I don't think you understand Trump at all. He's a populist, 1305 01:19:02,320 --> 01:19:04,880 Speaker 2: not a conservative. He's gonna do it because it's gonna 1306 01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:08,639 Speaker 2: make him look good. I'm not saying I'm in favor 1307 01:19:08,720 --> 01:19:11,680 Speaker 2: of it. Oh gosh, oh gosh. I'm sorry. Oh. I 1308 01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:13,120 Speaker 2: didn't want to make it sound like I was in 1309 01:19:13,160 --> 01:19:15,400 Speaker 2: favor of it. No, no, no, no, I'm talking about 1310 01:19:15,479 --> 01:19:18,760 Speaker 2: understanding what's happening. Whether I'm in favor it or not. 1311 01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:22,120 Speaker 2: It's completely different, subject to times. But the first things first, 1312 01:19:22,320 --> 01:19:24,360 Speaker 2: we always have to be honest and clear about what 1313 01:19:24,400 --> 01:19:27,599 Speaker 2: it is that is happening, and they are not and 1314 01:19:27,640 --> 01:19:30,719 Speaker 2: we are. And that's the difference. We saw this coming 1315 01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:34,000 Speaker 2: a mile away. We saw this around the corner, down 1316 01:19:34,080 --> 01:19:37,400 Speaker 2: the hall, locked in a room, we saw every part 1317 01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:40,880 Speaker 2: of it. And here it comes Stratton down or like, yeah, yeah, 1318 01:19:40,920 --> 01:19:45,400 Speaker 2: we knew because we did do I like it. I 1319 01:19:45,400 --> 01:19:47,320 Speaker 2: want to get rid of Obamacare. But now we go 1320 01:19:47,320 --> 01:19:50,360 Speaker 2: to where Republicans have been the absolute weakest. All right, Republicans, 1321 01:19:50,360 --> 01:19:52,280 Speaker 2: you don't want to Obamacare? What do you want? And 1322 01:19:52,320 --> 01:19:59,160 Speaker 2: they literally said, and I'm quoting here, you can't not 1323 01:19:59,320 --> 01:20:02,080 Speaker 2: have an answer. Sure, we're going to get rid of 1324 01:20:02,120 --> 01:20:06,320 Speaker 2: it in every single way. We're gonna make sure that 1325 01:20:06,439 --> 01:20:09,880 Speaker 2: this socialist abomination never sees the light of day. Again, 1326 01:20:10,040 --> 01:20:11,599 Speaker 2: that would have been an answer, but they did an 1327 01:20:11,600 --> 01:20:14,519 Speaker 2: answer like that, and they still if you ask like, well, 1328 01:20:15,160 --> 01:20:17,240 Speaker 2: you know, what do you mean? 1329 01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:18,040 Speaker 3: Well, you know. 1330 01:20:19,479 --> 01:20:23,080 Speaker 2: Obamacare is not a way to create better healthcare outcomes. 1331 01:20:23,520 --> 01:20:26,040 Speaker 2: It just isn't. We need to be looking at a 1332 01:20:26,080 --> 01:20:29,360 Speaker 2: regulatory environment, and we need to be asking ourselves what 1333 01:20:29,400 --> 01:20:33,120 Speaker 2: it is we want for doctors. Yes, doctors making money 1334 01:20:33,200 --> 01:20:36,639 Speaker 2: is a good thing. It brings more people into the field. Yes, 1335 01:20:37,160 --> 01:20:40,120 Speaker 2: we want drug companies making money because it allows for 1336 01:20:40,200 --> 01:20:43,320 Speaker 2: more innovation. We don't want to stifle innovation by capping 1337 01:20:43,360 --> 01:20:45,880 Speaker 2: what it is they can make, but we certainly want 1338 01:20:45,920 --> 01:20:47,960 Speaker 2: to take a look at what is being spent by 1339 01:20:47,960 --> 01:20:51,000 Speaker 2: the American consumer and ask how we can reduce that 1340 01:20:51,360 --> 01:20:55,360 Speaker 2: via the regulatory burden. So the answer to the healthcare 1341 01:20:55,439 --> 01:20:58,840 Speaker 2: question is not we need some kind of great government program. 1342 01:20:59,200 --> 01:21:02,160 Speaker 2: The answer it starts with what are we doing to 1343 01:21:02,240 --> 01:21:05,040 Speaker 2: be involved in and to meddle in the market, and 1344 01:21:05,120 --> 01:21:08,240 Speaker 2: how do we get out of it. The people screaming 1345 01:21:08,320 --> 01:21:11,840 Speaker 2: government intervention are always screaming government intervention, and there's never 1346 01:21:11,920 --> 01:21:16,400 Speaker 2: amount of government intervention that's enough. Well, government intervention means 1347 01:21:16,400 --> 01:21:19,599 Speaker 2: government control and I do not want governments controlling your 1348 01:21:19,640 --> 01:21:22,280 Speaker 2: health care. I want you and your doctor deciding what's 1349 01:21:22,360 --> 01:21:25,760 Speaker 2: best for you. And the left promised that with Obamacare, 1350 01:21:25,800 --> 01:21:29,400 Speaker 2: and they lie through their damn teeth because Barack Obama was, 1351 01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:32,240 Speaker 2: is and always will be a liar. Remember when he 1352 01:21:32,280 --> 01:21:33,959 Speaker 2: told you that he was going to build a library 1353 01:21:34,120 --> 01:21:35,799 Speaker 2: in Chicago and it's going to look beautiful. 1354 01:21:38,640 --> 01:21:40,120 Speaker 3: Case rested. 1355 01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:44,200 Speaker 2: So we believe that we should be taking a look 1356 01:21:44,240 --> 01:21:47,640 Speaker 2: at healthcare in the United States through the market perspective 1357 01:21:47,800 --> 01:21:50,200 Speaker 2: and saying what is government doing to get in the 1358 01:21:50,240 --> 01:21:53,439 Speaker 2: way and get out of the way so moms can 1359 01:21:53,439 --> 01:21:56,400 Speaker 2: talk to doctors and make decisions that are best for 1360 01:21:56,520 --> 01:22:00,479 Speaker 2: their kids. Then we can discuss helping those who might 1361 01:22:00,560 --> 01:22:05,360 Speaker 2: need the help. Now, the Republicans can't say it, they 1362 01:22:05,360 --> 01:22:08,080 Speaker 2: can't do it because the response is, oh, great, so 1363 01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:11,479 Speaker 2: you're gonna let people die. That's a weird response from 1364 01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:14,000 Speaker 2: weird people. But what do I expect from the left 1365 01:22:14,040 --> 01:22:18,479 Speaker 2: because they're unseerrious. I started with a basic premise, why 1366 01:22:18,520 --> 01:22:21,639 Speaker 2: can't mothers and doctors figure this out? What is stopping 1367 01:22:21,680 --> 01:22:23,599 Speaker 2: them from being able to do things? What is happening 1368 01:22:23,640 --> 01:22:27,920 Speaker 2: on the insurance regulatory side, what's happening on our own 1369 01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:30,320 Speaker 2: laws that are stopping some of these things from happening. 1370 01:22:30,400 --> 01:22:33,080 Speaker 2: Once we can eliminate those, can't we take a look 1371 01:22:33,120 --> 01:22:35,400 Speaker 2: at other things we could do. Can't we at least 1372 01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:38,000 Speaker 2: start there. But the idea that government is the answer, 1373 01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:44,080 Speaker 2: it is not the answer. It can't do it. It can't. 1374 01:22:44,240 --> 01:22:47,240 Speaker 2: We have seen this, We are fully aware of it. 1375 01:22:47,520 --> 01:22:50,080 Speaker 2: I have got local cities that can't fix a pothole. 1376 01:22:50,439 --> 01:22:54,439 Speaker 2: You think they can run healthcare? Honey, what are we doing? 1377 01:22:55,760 --> 01:22:57,960 Speaker 2: But the left puts this idea out there that there 1378 01:22:58,040 --> 01:22:59,519 Speaker 2: has to be a plan, There has to be plan. Oh, 1379 01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:01,120 Speaker 2: you don't have a you won't do the thing, you 1380 01:23:01,160 --> 01:23:04,400 Speaker 2: don't care. These people have to be broken of this idea. 1381 01:23:04,479 --> 01:23:06,200 Speaker 2: And the way to do that is to remind the 1382 01:23:06,200 --> 01:23:10,400 Speaker 2: American people that governments can't. It has a purpose, it 1383 01:23:10,400 --> 01:23:12,880 Speaker 2: has a function article on Section eight. It could do 1384 01:23:12,920 --> 01:23:15,880 Speaker 2: the military, and after that it fails. It has to 1385 01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:20,519 Speaker 2: be us. How do we increase the opportunities for people, 1386 01:23:20,880 --> 01:23:23,960 Speaker 2: reduce the burdens on the doctors, on the hospitals, and 1387 01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:27,639 Speaker 2: on the others that are involved in this world? And 1388 01:23:27,720 --> 01:23:32,240 Speaker 2: then we go from there. Now, if you ask me, Tony, 1389 01:23:32,280 --> 01:23:34,200 Speaker 2: do you think it's right that you pay an insurance company, 1390 01:23:34,200 --> 01:23:36,120 Speaker 2: and all of a sudden they decide, well, they're not 1391 01:23:36,200 --> 01:23:38,519 Speaker 2: going to ensure because of X, Y and Z. I 1392 01:23:38,560 --> 01:23:41,160 Speaker 2: think that stuff is maddening. How do we go about 1393 01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:45,519 Speaker 2: fixing them? How do we go about solving those issues? Now, 1394 01:23:45,520 --> 01:23:49,080 Speaker 2: that could involve legislation, but that's done by the representation 1395 01:23:49,200 --> 01:23:52,400 Speaker 2: of we the people, as opposed to a top down 1396 01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:56,720 Speaker 2: fiat of government mandate run by bureaucrats that are unaccountable 1397 01:23:56,760 --> 01:23:59,400 Speaker 2: to the people because it comes from some agency that's 1398 01:23:59,439 --> 01:24:04,479 Speaker 2: given all sorts of shelter and unlimited budgets. You think 1399 01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:08,840 Speaker 2: this conversation is hard, well it is. The axiom in 1400 01:24:08,920 --> 01:24:12,200 Speaker 2: politics is if you're explaining, you're losing, which is why 1401 01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:16,639 Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer is losing this battle regarding the shutdown because 1402 01:24:16,680 --> 01:24:19,120 Speaker 2: he has to explain and the explanation is going over 1403 01:24:19,200 --> 01:24:25,479 Speaker 2: like a lead balloon. Nobody is interested, nobody's listening. You're 1404 01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:28,559 Speaker 2: it's it's so clear that the Republicans have won the 1405 01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:31,960 Speaker 2: messaging of you're so scared of Representative Cassio Quartes, you're 1406 01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:34,000 Speaker 2: trying to be tough, so liberals will think that you're 1407 01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:40,200 Speaker 2: tough in vote for you, which is not happening. I 1408 01:24:40,280 --> 01:24:45,920 Speaker 2: actually have this exclusive audio of Schumer's campaign speaking to 1409 01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:46,920 Speaker 2: him about the election. 1410 01:24:47,160 --> 01:24:51,559 Speaker 5: That is so such, Gretchen, stop trying to make such happen. 1411 01:24:51,800 --> 01:24:52,760 Speaker 5: It's not going to. 1412 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:58,080 Speaker 2: Happen, and neither is your reelection. I mean, Schumer is 1413 01:24:57,720 --> 01:25:01,519 Speaker 2: is crafty. If Schumer can put AOC in the trunk, 1414 01:25:02,240 --> 01:25:05,000 Speaker 2: he's gonna do it. He'll pull out any stop. There 1415 01:25:05,080 --> 01:25:07,719 Speaker 2: is no name calling, there is no photo. He wouldn't 1416 01:25:07,760 --> 01:25:10,719 Speaker 2: release whatever he can get his hands on. He's going 1417 01:25:10,760 --> 01:25:16,240 Speaker 2: to do power. Hungry people want power, so no one 1418 01:25:16,280 --> 01:25:19,320 Speaker 2: is surprised. But when it comes to healthcare, Republicans have 1419 01:25:19,479 --> 01:25:22,679 Speaker 2: not crafted a retort or a response, even a hard 1420 01:25:22,680 --> 01:25:25,080 Speaker 2: one like the one I gave, because you can argue 1421 01:25:25,120 --> 01:25:28,599 Speaker 2: mine's not pretty, mine's not sexy, but it's a retort, 1422 01:25:28,800 --> 01:25:32,840 Speaker 2: it's a response. It is actually based on a philosophy. 1423 01:25:33,400 --> 01:25:36,719 Speaker 2: Republicans had nothing to respond with, and they still don't, 1424 01:25:36,960 --> 01:25:40,439 Speaker 2: and it's why they are vulnerable on the issue. But 1425 01:25:40,600 --> 01:25:43,920 Speaker 2: the idea that Trump is handwringing about this, according to 1426 01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:47,120 Speaker 2: the Wall Street Journal, is for cocta nuts. No he's not, 1427 01:25:47,960 --> 01:25:50,439 Speaker 2: because as a populist, he doesn't need to have a 1428 01:25:50,479 --> 01:25:51,560 Speaker 2: political philosophy. 1429 01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:52,080 Speaker 3: Behind it. 1430 01:25:52,280 --> 01:25:55,000 Speaker 2: He just has to say sounds good and the people 1431 01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:58,240 Speaker 2: will love me. Make it happen. And that's what's going 1432 01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:01,160 Speaker 2: to happen. And my point to you, as we saw 1433 01:26:01,439 --> 01:26:05,600 Speaker 2: that coming, Democrats didn't know because Democrats are engaged in 1434 01:26:05,600 --> 01:26:09,160 Speaker 2: a shutdown for a completely different reason. And slowly but 1435 01:26:09,240 --> 01:26:12,519 Speaker 2: surely Democrats are gonna get peeled away because no one's 1436 01:26:12,560 --> 01:26:16,080 Speaker 2: willing to die on the cross for Chuck Schumer. I 1437 01:26:16,120 --> 01:26:19,320 Speaker 2: think the shutdown ends in three more days. Maybe it 1438 01:26:19,360 --> 01:26:23,400 Speaker 2: takes another thirty days. I could be wrong, but Trump 1439 01:26:23,400 --> 01:26:27,200 Speaker 2: handringing's the craziest thing I ever heard. I'm Tony Kats. 1440 01:26:27,200 --> 01:26:29,839 Speaker 2: This is Tony Kats today. Hamas has been a ruthless 1441 01:26:29,880 --> 01:26:32,320 Speaker 2: and violent threat for many years in the Middle East. 1442 01:26:32,439 --> 01:26:36,200 Speaker 2: They have killed and made lives unbearably miserable, culminating with 1443 01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:40,679 Speaker 2: the October seventh massacre in Israel. Babies, women, children, old people, 1444 01:26:40,680 --> 01:26:43,360 Speaker 2: and many young men and women, boys and girls getting 1445 01:26:43,360 --> 01:26:46,760 Speaker 2: ready to celebrate their future lives together as retribution for 1446 01:26:46,800 --> 01:26:50,400 Speaker 2: the October seventh attack on civilization. More than twenty five 1447 01:26:50,479 --> 01:26:54,559 Speaker 2: thousand Hamas quote unquote soldiers have already been killed. That 1448 01:26:55,200 --> 01:26:59,519 Speaker 2: is just the start of how President Trump begins this 1449 01:26:59,640 --> 01:27:03,639 Speaker 2: post on truth social Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, good 1450 01:27:03,720 --> 01:27:06,360 Speaker 2: to be with you. I made note of the fact 1451 01:27:07,439 --> 01:27:13,800 Speaker 2: New York Post with the headline that Hamas is rejecting 1452 01:27:14,080 --> 01:27:14,760 Speaker 2: the peace deal. 1453 01:27:16,479 --> 01:27:19,479 Speaker 3: So now what I want are all. 1454 01:27:19,479 --> 01:27:24,560 Speaker 2: Those absolute fools in my Twitter stream, all of you 1455 01:27:24,760 --> 01:27:31,800 Speaker 2: social media not you, all those social media trolls, tell 1456 01:27:31,840 --> 01:27:34,679 Speaker 2: me more about this genocide nonsense you want to talk about. 1457 01:27:36,400 --> 01:27:39,839 Speaker 2: Israel agrees to a peace plan, Israel agrees to withdraw 1458 01:27:39,920 --> 01:27:43,200 Speaker 2: the soldiers. You have to have Hamas surrender and give 1459 01:27:43,280 --> 01:27:47,439 Speaker 2: up their weapons. And Amas is like, nah, it's never 1460 01:27:47,479 --> 01:27:50,920 Speaker 2: been a genocide. It's always a lie. Oh well, Israel 1461 01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:53,040 Speaker 2: had to know that this attack was coming. I don't 1462 01:27:53,080 --> 01:27:55,160 Speaker 2: know what Israel knew or didn't know. All I know 1463 01:27:55,240 --> 01:27:57,479 Speaker 2: is they were caught flat footed. I think it's insane 1464 01:27:57,520 --> 01:28:00,479 Speaker 2: they didn't have prior information or intell I think people 1465 01:28:00,520 --> 01:28:01,160 Speaker 2: need to be fired. 1466 01:28:01,160 --> 01:28:03,000 Speaker 3: And I said, so, what the hell does that have 1467 01:28:03,040 --> 01:28:03,320 Speaker 3: to do with? 1468 01:28:03,400 --> 01:28:07,320 Speaker 2: Right now, everybody screaming Israel's guilty of a genocide is 1469 01:28:07,360 --> 01:28:10,760 Speaker 2: a liar and a fraud. They don't want it to end. 1470 01:28:10,800 --> 01:28:12,760 Speaker 2: They want dead Jews, and then they want the end 1471 01:28:12,760 --> 01:28:17,800 Speaker 2: of Western civilization. It is that simple, it's done. Oh 1472 01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:20,320 Speaker 2: don't tell me about Tucker or Candas or Megan Kelly 1473 01:28:20,520 --> 01:28:24,800 Speaker 2: or anybody else. There is a reality to the situation 1474 01:28:25,200 --> 01:28:28,679 Speaker 2: that we are looking at. Here's the peace deal, here's 1475 01:28:28,680 --> 01:28:32,479 Speaker 2: how you get out alive. Nope, you just have to 1476 01:28:32,479 --> 01:28:35,000 Speaker 2: give back the hostages. Nope, you have to lay down 1477 01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:38,240 Speaker 2: your arms and walk away, and the Palestinian people get 1478 01:28:38,280 --> 01:28:42,479 Speaker 2: to live in peace. Nope. And then you have people 1479 01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:46,920 Speaker 2: on the left saying, look at the Israeli genocide. What 1480 01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:49,919 Speaker 2: kind of nonsense is this? This is only the nonsense 1481 01:28:49,960 --> 01:28:53,760 Speaker 2: that the left could put out. The facts are punching 1482 01:28:53,800 --> 01:28:56,599 Speaker 2: them in the face, and they don't care. They've been 1483 01:28:56,680 --> 01:29:00,400 Speaker 2: proven as liars, improven as frauds. You might actually believe 1484 01:29:00,439 --> 01:29:02,800 Speaker 2: that Greta Tunberg is on some kind of mission to 1485 01:29:02,840 --> 01:29:09,320 Speaker 2: save people. Gretaitunberg is a mentally disturbed child now an adult, 1486 01:29:09,439 --> 01:29:12,120 Speaker 2: who's been abused her whole life and doesn't know which 1487 01:29:12,200 --> 01:29:16,240 Speaker 2: end is up. You think she's making her own decisions. 1488 01:29:16,280 --> 01:29:18,920 Speaker 2: Here she went from saying you're going to kill the 1489 01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:21,840 Speaker 2: environment and destroy everybody on the planet to all of 1490 01:29:21,840 --> 01:29:26,320 Speaker 2: a sudden saying I support the terrorists. And by the way, 1491 01:29:26,400 --> 01:29:30,000 Speaker 2: next week, when there's something new and shiny. She'll support that. 1492 01:29:30,280 --> 01:29:35,040 Speaker 2: Everyone knows that, right. All these people screaming Israel and genocide. 1493 01:29:35,960 --> 01:29:39,080 Speaker 2: When there's something new next week, they'll be all about 1494 01:29:39,080 --> 01:29:41,880 Speaker 2: being on the wrong side of that because that's all 1495 01:29:41,920 --> 01:29:45,519 Speaker 2: they know how to do. But people screaming Israel guilty 1496 01:29:45,520 --> 01:29:47,679 Speaker 2: of genocide are liars and frauds. 1497 01:29:47,880 --> 01:29:48,880 Speaker 3: Here's the piece deal. 1498 01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:53,320 Speaker 2: Israel said yes, and Ama says no thanks, And what's 1499 01:29:53,360 --> 01:29:54,120 Speaker 2: their sticking point. 1500 01:29:54,360 --> 01:29:57,320 Speaker 3: We won't give up because some Maas. 1501 01:29:57,120 --> 01:30:00,360 Speaker 2: Is interested in dead Jews and then destroying Western civilation. 1502 01:30:00,760 --> 01:30:03,720 Speaker 2: They are not interested in peace. They're not interested in 1503 01:30:03,760 --> 01:30:06,240 Speaker 2: a two state solution. I saw wrote Kahana, the congressman 1504 01:30:06,439 --> 01:30:09,280 Speaker 2: progressive from California, who at least is a guy you 1505 01:30:09,320 --> 01:30:11,200 Speaker 2: could talk to, even though I disagree with them politically, 1506 01:30:11,960 --> 01:30:14,559 Speaker 2: saying I favor the two state solution. Well that's great, 1507 01:30:14,600 --> 01:30:19,320 Speaker 2: Congressman Kahana, but Hamas doesn't. Hamas favors dead Jews, Israel destroyed, 1508 01:30:19,360 --> 01:30:24,440 Speaker 2: and then you next they've told you, and they're supported 1509 01:30:24,680 --> 01:30:28,000 Speaker 2: by college stud it's a Columbia name your other university. 1510 01:30:27,720 --> 01:30:29,639 Speaker 3: And the trolls on my Twitter feed. 1511 01:30:30,360 --> 01:30:33,720 Speaker 2: And I'm supposed to take them seriously. Pitch please Let's 1512 01:30:33,760 --> 01:30:34,520 Speaker 2: get serious. 1513 01:30:35,320 --> 01:30:36,280 Speaker 3: Let's get serious. 1514 01:30:36,760 --> 01:30:39,200 Speaker 2: The free and thinking world must accept that it is 1515 01:30:39,280 --> 01:30:41,880 Speaker 2: them or us. It is the people who want the 1516 01:30:41,880 --> 01:30:45,640 Speaker 2: worldwide Califate and their supporters on social media, or it 1517 01:30:45,680 --> 01:30:47,599 Speaker 2: is the free and thinking people of the world who 1518 01:30:47,600 --> 01:30:49,719 Speaker 2: want to keep living free and thinking. 1519 01:30:50,760 --> 01:30:51,160 Speaker 3: That's it. 1520 01:30:52,479 --> 01:30:55,120 Speaker 2: This isn't about Jews, this is about you. 1521 01:30:56,120 --> 01:30:59,960 Speaker 3: I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Katz today. 1522 01:31:01,720 --> 01:31:05,880 Speaker 2: So as we were saying, you've got the shutdown that 1523 01:31:06,040 --> 01:31:08,720 Speaker 2: is preventing the Bureau of Labor Statistics from putting out 1524 01:31:08,760 --> 01:31:10,799 Speaker 2: its numbers. I mean, it could put out the numbers, 1525 01:31:10,840 --> 01:31:13,000 Speaker 2: but no one's working or they're not getting paid to work. 1526 01:31:13,120 --> 01:31:15,680 Speaker 2: The point is they're not putting out the numbers, so 1527 01:31:15,720 --> 01:31:18,040 Speaker 2: we don't know jobs numbers in a whole host of things. 1528 01:31:18,120 --> 01:31:22,519 Speaker 2: Yet the market up three hundred points plus. Who knows 1529 01:31:22,520 --> 01:31:25,120 Speaker 2: where it'll end. But it hasn't shown that it's somehow 1530 01:31:25,640 --> 01:31:28,920 Speaker 2: bothered or affected by any of this. Tony Katz, Tony 1531 01:31:29,000 --> 01:31:31,960 Speaker 2: Katz today, Good to be with you. Doctor mattwill joins 1532 01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:35,200 Speaker 2: us economist at the University of Indianapolis. 1533 01:31:35,560 --> 01:31:38,679 Speaker 3: Let's start with some basic stuff here. Do you need 1534 01:31:38,720 --> 01:31:42,000 Speaker 3: the numbers? Do they even matter to the markets? 1535 01:31:42,720 --> 01:31:46,479 Speaker 9: Well, they do matter, but we can't get them. I'll 1536 01:31:46,520 --> 01:31:48,840 Speaker 9: answer your question in more details in a moment. But 1537 01:31:49,240 --> 01:31:52,000 Speaker 9: Elizabeth Warren, she's screaming to release the report, and you 1538 01:31:52,040 --> 01:31:54,360 Speaker 9: had just mentioned, well, could we release support. We actually 1539 01:31:54,439 --> 01:31:58,640 Speaker 9: can't because people compile the report, they do surveys, and 1540 01:31:58,640 --> 01:32:01,240 Speaker 9: they haven't been working for two days. They're working on 1541 01:32:01,280 --> 01:32:03,439 Speaker 9: this THNK up until the last minute, so it's just 1542 01:32:03,520 --> 01:32:07,840 Speaker 9: not available. First of all, does it matter, Yes? And no, Okay, 1543 01:32:08,080 --> 01:32:10,600 Speaker 9: it does matter because we need data that tells us 1544 01:32:10,640 --> 01:32:13,280 Speaker 9: the direction of the market. We need data to tell 1545 01:32:13,360 --> 01:32:16,280 Speaker 9: us if there's a trend. But no, we don't need 1546 01:32:16,320 --> 01:32:19,160 Speaker 9: it because we have the ADP data, we have the 1547 01:32:19,600 --> 01:32:22,920 Speaker 9: ISM data, we have the information that came out from 1548 01:32:22,960 --> 01:32:25,960 Speaker 9: the GDP recently up to three point eight percent. We've 1549 01:32:25,960 --> 01:32:29,479 Speaker 9: got other information, and we all know the labor market 1550 01:32:29,520 --> 01:32:31,840 Speaker 9: is weak. So all this would do is reinforce what 1551 01:32:31,920 --> 01:32:34,400 Speaker 9: we already know. So it's not the end of the world. 1552 01:32:34,479 --> 01:32:36,560 Speaker 9: It's fine that we don't get the report today. 1553 01:32:36,360 --> 01:32:41,080 Speaker 2: But it's clear that people do utilize those reports for 1554 01:32:41,160 --> 01:32:45,200 Speaker 2: a level of reaction, and it can keep the market timid, 1555 01:32:45,280 --> 01:32:48,280 Speaker 2: it can make things explode. But when you see a 1556 01:32:48,360 --> 01:32:52,639 Speaker 2: daylight today you are left with the feeling of First 1557 01:32:52,680 --> 01:32:55,280 Speaker 2: of all, shutdowns don't affect anything, which is an argument 1558 01:32:55,360 --> 01:32:58,960 Speaker 2: that I have made in part and the other part 1559 01:32:58,960 --> 01:33:02,599 Speaker 2: of it is the market doesn't care what the numbers say. 1560 01:33:02,760 --> 01:33:05,920 Speaker 2: Whatever makes things go up and allows them to cash 1561 01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:10,280 Speaker 2: out only thing that matters. We saw oil refineries in 1562 01:33:10,360 --> 01:33:14,960 Speaker 2: Russia getting bombed by Ukraine and oil prices went down. 1563 01:33:15,479 --> 01:33:20,960 Speaker 2: So do the numbers matter anymore to this economy, into 1564 01:33:21,000 --> 01:33:22,000 Speaker 2: this market. 1565 01:33:22,479 --> 01:33:26,400 Speaker 9: No, they do matter. We need data. You can't make 1566 01:33:26,439 --> 01:33:28,559 Speaker 9: a decision. You don't know if there's too many people 1567 01:33:28,600 --> 01:33:30,760 Speaker 9: being laid off or too many people being hired. I 1568 01:33:30,960 --> 01:33:33,519 Speaker 9: guess you can't have too many people being hired. You 1569 01:33:33,560 --> 01:33:36,320 Speaker 9: don't know if the economy is growing or the economy shrinking. No, 1570 01:33:36,439 --> 01:33:39,800 Speaker 9: you need data. Without data, you can't make decisions. Even 1571 01:33:39,880 --> 01:33:42,160 Speaker 9: though the data's flawed, and we've talked about that on 1572 01:33:42,240 --> 01:33:45,200 Speaker 9: your show. The BLS data is flawed, but the market 1573 01:33:45,200 --> 01:33:48,759 Speaker 9: knows it's flawed. The market fixes the data. It says, Okay, 1574 01:33:48,920 --> 01:33:50,360 Speaker 9: it's going to come in low, but we're going to 1575 01:33:50,439 --> 01:33:54,640 Speaker 9: revise it even lower. We need the data, and the 1576 01:33:54,720 --> 01:33:57,240 Speaker 9: market is good at it. But we have lots of data. 1577 01:33:57,640 --> 01:33:59,240 Speaker 9: It's not the end of the world if we don't 1578 01:33:59,240 --> 01:34:03,879 Speaker 9: get this today now long term, we need it long term. 1579 01:34:04,040 --> 01:34:07,120 Speaker 9: The FED uses this long term. This Congress and the 1580 01:34:07,160 --> 01:34:10,519 Speaker 9: President uses this data to make decisions. So we do 1581 01:34:10,600 --> 01:34:12,760 Speaker 9: need it. But trust me, we can live today. And 1582 01:34:12,760 --> 01:34:14,880 Speaker 9: by the way, the market's up. Why is it up 1583 01:34:15,080 --> 01:34:17,920 Speaker 9: because it Alreadys incorporated this in when the ADP data 1584 01:34:17,960 --> 01:34:21,240 Speaker 9: came out and it was negative, and that reinforced previous 1585 01:34:21,320 --> 01:34:23,719 Speaker 9: data we had that was negative on the labor market. 1586 01:34:24,439 --> 01:34:27,240 Speaker 9: It's already in. It's already baked in. There's no news 1587 01:34:27,240 --> 01:34:29,439 Speaker 9: to be made if the BLS gives us another report 1588 01:34:29,479 --> 01:34:31,040 Speaker 9: that says labors down. 1589 01:34:32,200 --> 01:34:35,600 Speaker 2: Talking to doctor Matt Well, economists at the University of Indianapolis, 1590 01:34:35,640 --> 01:34:37,840 Speaker 2: let let me give you a couple other pieces of 1591 01:34:38,520 --> 01:34:40,720 Speaker 2: economic stuff. So I knew I wanted to talk to 1592 01:34:40,720 --> 01:34:42,160 Speaker 2: you about this, but I'm going to throw this stuff 1593 01:34:42,200 --> 01:34:44,920 Speaker 2: at you. Let's see how quick you are on your fee. 1594 01:34:45,479 --> 01:34:48,640 Speaker 2: Tesla said there was an increase in sales in the 1595 01:34:48,760 --> 01:34:53,840 Speaker 2: third quarter. This matches the story regarding Tesla and General 1596 01:34:53,880 --> 01:34:59,680 Speaker 2: Motors leading record US EV sales electric vehicles. Is this 1597 01:34:59,760 --> 01:35:04,840 Speaker 2: all because the incentives are ending? Or is is this 1598 01:35:05,280 --> 01:35:08,479 Speaker 2: the news that all the fire bombings of Tesla is 1599 01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:10,599 Speaker 2: now over and now you can own one without having 1600 01:35:10,640 --> 01:35:11,040 Speaker 2: a keyed. 1601 01:35:12,240 --> 01:35:15,800 Speaker 9: No, what happened was we had a political ramification to 1602 01:35:16,600 --> 01:35:20,360 Speaker 9: Elon Musk being in the government, and that hurt his business. 1603 01:35:20,120 --> 01:35:24,440 Speaker 9: That's an anomaly. These are things that shock the market temporarily. 1604 01:35:24,840 --> 01:35:28,960 Speaker 9: That's now gone and we're now back into normal business operations. 1605 01:35:29,280 --> 01:35:32,800 Speaker 9: And normal business operations is that Tesla is dominating the 1606 01:35:32,800 --> 01:35:36,559 Speaker 9: EV market. They have lower cost production. I could give 1607 01:35:36,600 --> 01:35:39,320 Speaker 9: you specifics, Tony about what they do with their semiconductor 1608 01:35:39,400 --> 01:35:41,639 Speaker 9: chips they put in their cars. How they have almost 1609 01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:44,800 Speaker 9: a unibody type when it comes to welding. No one 1610 01:35:44,840 --> 01:35:48,320 Speaker 9: can compete with them even close in the production quality 1611 01:35:48,360 --> 01:35:50,760 Speaker 9: of what they're making. Now they're just we're back into 1612 01:35:50,800 --> 01:35:54,160 Speaker 9: the okay, who's the best and guess who's the best Tesla. 1613 01:35:54,360 --> 01:35:57,840 Speaker 9: So Tesla's growing again. The politics are set to the side, 1614 01:35:57,880 --> 01:36:00,960 Speaker 9: and now actual performance matters. And I'm going to say 1615 01:36:01,080 --> 01:36:03,920 Speaker 9: this very emphatically. The government has to get out of 1616 01:36:03,920 --> 01:36:08,439 Speaker 9: the darn picture. Let business success and business failure rule 1617 01:36:08,520 --> 01:36:12,040 Speaker 9: the day and not the business manipulating the market. And 1618 01:36:12,120 --> 01:36:15,240 Speaker 9: Tesla's back to its normal business operations, and I'm happy 1619 01:36:15,240 --> 01:36:15,920 Speaker 9: to see that. 1620 01:36:16,560 --> 01:36:19,360 Speaker 3: Also, if we take a look at the markets, we take. 1621 01:36:19,240 --> 01:36:24,240 Speaker 2: A look at April eighth and the Tesla stock price, 1622 01:36:24,320 --> 01:36:27,759 Speaker 2: which full disclosure in a fund I do own Tesla 1623 01:36:28,200 --> 01:36:31,840 Speaker 2: is it was two twenty one and right now the 1624 01:36:31,920 --> 01:36:37,240 Speaker 2: stock is closed yesterday at four twenty nine. Is that 1625 01:36:37,280 --> 01:36:40,320 Speaker 2: what I'm saying. The moral of the story is things 1626 01:36:40,320 --> 01:36:43,840 Speaker 2: have been on an upward climb for Tesla over the 1627 01:36:43,920 --> 01:36:47,840 Speaker 2: last months. This was all a reaction to Doge and 1628 01:36:47,920 --> 01:36:51,120 Speaker 2: leaving and the so called fight, the spat between Trump 1629 01:36:51,520 --> 01:36:53,120 Speaker 2: and Musk. That was everything. 1630 01:36:54,520 --> 01:36:57,760 Speaker 9: Yes, that's exactly what it was. And quite honestly, let's 1631 01:36:57,760 --> 01:37:01,240 Speaker 9: be let's be blunt with your listeners. Elon Musk was 1632 01:37:01,240 --> 01:37:04,000 Speaker 9: not focusing on Tesla. He was focusing on the government. 1633 01:37:04,400 --> 01:37:08,639 Speaker 9: He's now the world first half a trillionaire. Congratulations, Elon. 1634 01:37:08,680 --> 01:37:11,800 Speaker 9: I'm happy that you're successful. And he is focusing back 1635 01:37:11,840 --> 01:37:15,120 Speaker 9: on his business again and now it's doing better. Thank 1636 01:37:15,200 --> 01:37:17,640 Speaker 9: goodness for him, Thank goodness for Tesla owners and the 1637 01:37:17,680 --> 01:37:21,439 Speaker 9: Tesla shareholders, the Doe saying we need it you and 1638 01:37:21,479 --> 01:37:24,240 Speaker 9: I I wish he were running Doge, but I feel 1639 01:37:24,240 --> 01:37:26,280 Speaker 9: good for him and his company because that's where his 1640 01:37:26,360 --> 01:37:27,280 Speaker 9: focus is at the moment. 1641 01:37:27,520 --> 01:37:31,160 Speaker 2: Talking to doctor Matt Well, economists at the University of Indianapolis. 1642 01:37:31,240 --> 01:37:33,679 Speaker 2: Let me bring you another story. This is the CEO 1643 01:37:33,760 --> 01:37:36,960 Speaker 2: of Goldman Sachs. It seems that a lot of these 1644 01:37:36,960 --> 01:37:39,759 Speaker 2: guys on Wall Street take the money and are always 1645 01:37:39,760 --> 01:37:42,360 Speaker 2: screaming that the sky is falling. I'm one of the 1646 01:37:42,400 --> 01:37:45,439 Speaker 2: people who argues, well, the sky does eventually fall. I'm 1647 01:37:45,479 --> 01:37:49,639 Speaker 2: just stunned it hasn't fallen yet. He's at a tech 1648 01:37:49,680 --> 01:37:52,960 Speaker 2: week in turn in Italy, and he believes a draw 1649 01:37:53,040 --> 01:37:55,400 Speaker 2: down is likely to hit the stock markets in the 1650 01:37:55,439 --> 01:37:58,800 Speaker 2: coming two years. My problem here is I've been hearing 1651 01:37:58,840 --> 01:38:02,400 Speaker 2: about a draw down, e a reduction, a slow down, 1652 01:38:01,800 --> 01:38:06,120 Speaker 2: a things getting back to maybe a more normal number. 1653 01:38:06,560 --> 01:38:09,320 Speaker 2: I've been hearing about this for five years, and it 1654 01:38:09,400 --> 01:38:13,679 Speaker 2: hasn't happened yet. What makes Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon 1655 01:38:13,800 --> 01:38:16,639 Speaker 2: say this? And does anybody in the market, as you 1656 01:38:16,720 --> 01:38:20,720 Speaker 2: observe these things from a very intimate level, do you 1657 01:38:20,840 --> 01:38:23,720 Speaker 2: think that the market is preparing itself in what it's 1658 01:38:23,760 --> 01:38:27,400 Speaker 2: been doing for Okay, this party's going to end sometime soon. 1659 01:38:27,520 --> 01:38:29,800 Speaker 2: We're going to enter some rough times. 1660 01:38:31,240 --> 01:38:33,120 Speaker 9: Okay, you want a lightning round, but I can't give 1661 01:38:33,120 --> 01:38:34,479 Speaker 9: you a lightning round answer on this one. 1662 01:38:34,800 --> 01:38:36,920 Speaker 2: Take it and I got Tom, I have bourbon. We're good. 1663 01:38:38,520 --> 01:38:41,360 Speaker 9: So, first of all, is the market going to turn down? Yes, 1664 01:38:41,400 --> 01:38:44,719 Speaker 9: eventually at some point. We all see the economic data 1665 01:38:44,800 --> 01:38:47,960 Speaker 9: pointing to negative directions. The trades are the trade war 1666 01:38:48,040 --> 01:38:50,919 Speaker 9: is finally harming the economy. We see it in prices 1667 01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:53,400 Speaker 9: now up to four point eight percent. We see it 1668 01:38:53,400 --> 01:38:56,360 Speaker 9: in the employment reports which are negative. So yeah, there's 1669 01:38:56,400 --> 01:38:59,240 Speaker 9: bad news. So wow. David Solomon is a genius because 1670 01:38:59,280 --> 01:39:02,479 Speaker 9: he predicts the fewuture. I think we all know there 1671 01:39:02,520 --> 01:39:05,720 Speaker 9: may be a recession around the corner. Maybe maybe I'm 1672 01:39:05,760 --> 01:39:07,840 Speaker 9: gonna talk about the AI stuff in a moment. But 1673 01:39:08,240 --> 01:39:11,080 Speaker 9: David Solomon is self serving. I hope he doesn't listen 1674 01:39:11,080 --> 01:39:13,200 Speaker 9: to your show because they'll probably send his lawyers after me, 1675 01:39:13,800 --> 01:39:19,120 Speaker 9: David Simon. Solomon is self serving because Goldman Sachs makes 1676 01:39:19,520 --> 01:39:23,760 Speaker 9: money on churn, on buying and selling. So if there's 1677 01:39:23,800 --> 01:39:25,640 Speaker 9: going to be a drawdown, then people are going to 1678 01:39:25,720 --> 01:39:28,880 Speaker 9: rush to sell and change the portfolio mixture. He makes 1679 01:39:29,040 --> 01:39:33,080 Speaker 9: money on that. His business is making money by you trading, 1680 01:39:33,439 --> 01:39:36,480 Speaker 9: and if you reallocate your assets to a different category, 1681 01:39:36,720 --> 01:39:40,160 Speaker 9: he makes money. This is very self serving. What he's saying. 1682 01:39:40,360 --> 01:39:43,360 Speaker 9: He is not some expert economist. He runs a company 1683 01:39:43,560 --> 01:39:46,439 Speaker 9: that's based on trading and that's what he does. And 1684 01:39:46,479 --> 01:39:49,799 Speaker 9: he's self serving in his comments. I'm not saying he's wrong. 1685 01:39:50,400 --> 01:39:53,120 Speaker 9: I'm saying he's very self serving in his comments. 1686 01:39:53,720 --> 01:39:55,920 Speaker 2: Before I let you go talking to doctor Matt Will, 1687 01:39:55,960 --> 01:40:00,720 Speaker 2: economist at the University of Indianapolis, let's talk about this shutdown. 1688 01:40:02,320 --> 01:40:07,439 Speaker 2: The shutdown has really not thrown anything into the works 1689 01:40:07,520 --> 01:40:10,679 Speaker 2: of the market, hasn't really thrown anything into the works 1690 01:40:10,680 --> 01:40:13,240 Speaker 2: to mess up the works of everyday Americans, and the 1691 01:40:13,280 --> 01:40:16,679 Speaker 2: shutdown it only gets us through to November twenty first, 1692 01:40:16,720 --> 01:40:19,920 Speaker 2: where we're going to be having this conversation all over again. 1693 01:40:20,840 --> 01:40:23,640 Speaker 2: Is it that Americans have gotten used to shutdowns or 1694 01:40:23,680 --> 01:40:26,360 Speaker 2: the threats of shutdowns and we've baked it into the cake. 1695 01:40:26,840 --> 01:40:29,040 Speaker 2: Is there something different about what we're seeing and is 1696 01:40:29,080 --> 01:40:31,719 Speaker 2: there something different about what might come down the road 1697 01:40:32,200 --> 01:40:35,040 Speaker 2: that really does have an effect on the economy. 1698 01:40:35,680 --> 01:40:38,040 Speaker 9: Well, I'm going to say this is a different kind 1699 01:40:38,080 --> 01:40:40,720 Speaker 9: of shutdown because Trump is now in charge of this 1700 01:40:40,840 --> 01:40:44,360 Speaker 9: shutdown and this is actually good for the economy. In 1701 01:40:44,400 --> 01:40:47,439 Speaker 9: the previous administrations, when we had a shutdown and the 1702 01:40:47,479 --> 01:40:50,360 Speaker 9: president in charge was a Democrat and we had this 1703 01:40:50,439 --> 01:40:54,759 Speaker 9: massive government bureaucracy. Then the world couldn't function without the government. 1704 01:40:55,200 --> 01:40:57,639 Speaker 9: Trump has been getting the government out of your hair. 1705 01:40:57,880 --> 01:41:00,680 Speaker 9: He's been taking them out of your life. So guess what, 1706 01:41:00,720 --> 01:41:04,599 Speaker 9: we're independent now, We're functioning independently without big brother over 1707 01:41:04,640 --> 01:41:08,040 Speaker 9: our shoulder. So no, I think this government shutdown is 1708 01:41:08,080 --> 01:41:10,800 Speaker 9: a different kind of one because we don't need the 1709 01:41:10,800 --> 01:41:13,880 Speaker 9: government the moment. We can survive without them. And lo 1710 01:41:14,040 --> 01:41:16,800 Speaker 9: and behold, you said it for the last few times 1711 01:41:16,840 --> 01:41:20,080 Speaker 9: you've commented on this. Yeah, we're seem to be doing fine. 1712 01:41:20,080 --> 01:41:22,720 Speaker 9: Now we can't do long term. Okay, the military has 1713 01:41:22,760 --> 01:41:24,840 Speaker 9: to get paid, the police need to be paid, Ice 1714 01:41:24,920 --> 01:41:27,920 Speaker 9: needs to be paid, for sure, so you know, let's 1715 01:41:28,479 --> 01:41:31,000 Speaker 9: we can't go on forever. But I think Trump is 1716 01:41:31,080 --> 01:41:32,280 Speaker 9: managing it very well. 1717 01:41:32,840 --> 01:41:36,520 Speaker 2: But you don't think that even if there was something prolonged, 1718 01:41:36,560 --> 01:41:40,520 Speaker 2: whether it be now, whether it be this conversation in November, 1719 01:41:41,040 --> 01:41:45,599 Speaker 2: whether these Obamacare at tax credits get extended or not, 1720 01:41:46,000 --> 01:41:48,479 Speaker 2: there's nothing that we should be looking at that would 1721 01:41:48,520 --> 01:41:51,439 Speaker 2: make you say, well, if X, then you might see 1722 01:41:51,479 --> 01:41:53,160 Speaker 2: something very interesting, and why. 1723 01:41:54,600 --> 01:41:56,439 Speaker 9: I would need to know what the specific X is. 1724 01:41:56,520 --> 01:41:59,280 Speaker 9: But I believe that the government being shut down for 1725 01:41:59,320 --> 01:42:01,040 Speaker 9: a little bit is an a bad idea, and I 1726 01:42:01,080 --> 01:42:04,800 Speaker 9: agree with Trump and your analysis, maybe your analysis of Trump. 1727 01:42:04,800 --> 01:42:06,880 Speaker 9: I don't know if Trump's using your analysis, but this 1728 01:42:06,960 --> 01:42:10,080 Speaker 9: may be an opportunity to cut the fat out of government, 1729 01:42:10,400 --> 01:42:12,760 Speaker 9: because can he fire someone and not just lay them 1730 01:42:12,760 --> 01:42:14,599 Speaker 9: off and not have to bring them back. I think 1731 01:42:14,640 --> 01:42:18,639 Speaker 9: there actually is a doze benefit, you know, a side benefit, 1732 01:42:18,680 --> 01:42:22,920 Speaker 9: an unintended consequence that may benefit the country from this shutdown. 1733 01:42:23,439 --> 01:42:27,040 Speaker 2: Doctor Matt Well, economists at the University of Indianapolis. I 1734 01:42:27,120 --> 01:42:29,559 Speaker 2: appreciate you taking the time to be with us. More 1735 01:42:29,560 --> 01:42:31,920 Speaker 2: to get to I'm Tony Katz.

But there's also 1738 01:42:42,160 --> 01:42:46,639 Speaker 2: a story of people who can't see past their own face. 1739 01:42:46,880 --> 01:42:54,479 Speaker 2: And this is amongst the most angering stories I have 1740 01:42:54,640 --> 01:42:58,320 Speaker 2: come across in a while.

And you 1749 01:43:21,760 --> 01:43:26,120 Speaker 2: say to me, okay, I'm listening. It's from Smithsonian Magazine. 1750 01:43:28,000 --> 01:43:33,519 Speaker 2: The Egyptian Museum in Cairo had a bracelet and it 1751 01:43:33,600 --> 01:43:38,639 Speaker 2: was being restored. As you can imagine, Egypt, amongst other places, 1752 01:43:38,680 --> 01:43:42,960 Speaker 2: has the opportunity to come across many unique artifacts. This 1753 01:43:44,640 --> 01:43:49,639 Speaker 2: belonged to a pharaoh. I don't know if I'm pronouncing 1754 01:43:49,640 --> 01:43:54,719 Speaker 2: it right. I'm Metamope ruled during Egypt's Third Intermediate Period. 1755 01:43:54,800 --> 01:43:57,160 Speaker 2: And if you ask me what the third Intermediate Period is, 1756 01:43:57,200 --> 01:43:59,599 Speaker 2: I'm going to say to you, I'm only so good, guys, 1757 01:44:00,280 --> 01:44:02,320 Speaker 2: I'm only so good. I had to look it up. 1758 01:44:02,479 --> 01:44:06,240 Speaker 2: It's from ten seventy BC to six sixty four BC, 1759 01:44:06,880 --> 01:44:12,920 Speaker 2: so this is a three thousand year old artifact. It 1760 01:44:13,040 --> 01:44:19,599 Speaker 2: was a bracelet made of gold. The bracelet was stolen. 1761 01:44:21,280 --> 01:44:25,439 Speaker 2: Somebody stole the bracelet from the artifacts room from the 1762 01:44:25,640 --> 01:44:30,640 Speaker 2: Cairo Egyptian Museum. You can imagine that this is the 1763 01:44:30,720 --> 01:44:33,360 Speaker 2: kind of thing that will spur a lot of investigation, 1764 01:44:33,880 --> 01:44:36,599 Speaker 2: because while ISIS is a big believer in the destroying 1765 01:44:36,640 --> 01:44:40,760 Speaker 2: of antiquities and destroying of art, and destroying of civilizations 1766 01:44:40,800 --> 01:44:43,760 Speaker 2: that came before, because they don't want civilization. They just 1767 01:44:43,800 --> 01:44:48,960 Speaker 2: want the worldwide caliphate like Hamas. Not everybody is like this, 1768 01:44:49,040 --> 01:44:52,719 Speaker 2: of course, and these things do matter, and these things 1769 01:44:52,760 --> 01:44:56,639 Speaker 2: bring a tourism value in these things bring a cultural value. 1770 01:44:56,640 --> 01:45:01,200 Speaker 2: These things matter. Well, they starting instigating where in the 1771 01:45:01,200 --> 01:45:05,080 Speaker 2: bloody world who took this? What happens? They were itemizing 1772 01:45:05,160 --> 01:45:09,280 Speaker 2: artifacts for a shipment and they realized that it was missing. 1773 01:45:09,720 --> 01:45:13,280 Speaker 2: They immediately start circulating photos of the bracelet to law enforcement, 1774 01:45:13,400 --> 01:45:15,880 Speaker 2: archaeological authorities, like who could have sold this and who 1775 01:45:15,880 --> 01:45:18,519 Speaker 2: would have bought this, or who could have traded to 1776 01:45:19,600 --> 01:45:25,600 Speaker 2: et cetera. They start searching and they find out that 1777 01:45:25,720 --> 01:45:28,800 Speaker 2: of all the things that could have happened, how it 1778 01:45:28,800 --> 01:45:31,559 Speaker 2: could have been smuggled out of the country. Somebody could 1779 01:45:31,560 --> 01:45:36,280 Speaker 2: have done a forged prominance on this. No, they find 1780 01:45:36,320 --> 01:45:41,240 Speaker 2: out that it passed from a museum restoration specialist to 1781 01:45:41,360 --> 01:45:46,080 Speaker 2: a silver trader to the owner of a jewelry workshop. 1782 01:45:47,920 --> 01:45:50,679 Speaker 2: Now some of you already know where this story is going, 1783 01:45:51,760 --> 01:45:55,599 Speaker 2: and no matter what you think politically, you're like, oh no, 1784 01:45:56,160 --> 01:46:02,320 Speaker 2: they didn't from the workshop owned. It was sold to 1785 01:46:02,479 --> 01:46:09,800 Speaker 2: a gold smelter. The bracelet was sold for four thousand 1786 01:46:10,520 --> 01:46:16,400 Speaker 2: dollars and the gold was melted down for scrap for 1787 01:46:16,560 --> 01:46:18,040 Speaker 2: use and other things. 1788 01:46:20,320 --> 01:46:21,440 Speaker 3: I'm sorry. 1789 01:46:22,240 --> 01:46:26,679 Speaker 2: That story when I read it made me scream. Four 1790 01:46:26,760 --> 01:46:30,599 Speaker 2: suspects had been arrested. What happens when you're the gold 1791 01:46:30,640 --> 01:46:31,800 Speaker 2: smelter and you're like, I did? 1792 01:46:31,840 --> 01:46:31,920 Speaker 6: What? 1793 01:46:33,240 --> 01:46:36,640 Speaker 2: How do you live with yourself? Three thousand years of 1794 01:46:36,840 --> 01:46:40,800 Speaker 2: history a story to be told. 1795 01:46:40,880 --> 01:46:41,719 Speaker 3: To look at what they were. 1796 01:46:41,600 --> 01:46:45,000 Speaker 2: Able to design and create, and they saw a value 1797 01:46:45,000 --> 01:46:50,400 Speaker 2: in gold and the intrinsic worth and all thing. My gosh, oh, 1798 01:46:50,840 --> 01:46:54,800 Speaker 2: story ripped my heart out. It's like when you see 1799 01:46:54,840 --> 01:46:57,760 Speaker 2: these activists destroying artwork, you know, I believe in the 1800 01:46:57,800 --> 01:47:00,760 Speaker 2: death penalty for all of them. For them, I believe 1801 01:47:00,760 --> 01:47:03,920 Speaker 2: in the dut penalty. This story is horrifying because there 1802 01:47:03,920 --> 01:47:05,720 Speaker 2: are people along the line, but I'm willing to beck 1803 01:47:05,800 --> 01:47:09,160 Speaker 2: didn't know. They didn't know. It was just given to them, 1804 01:47:09,280 --> 01:47:12,840 Speaker 2: sold to them, and they did what they do. For 1805 01:47:12,960 --> 01:47:15,639 Speaker 2: people who destroy art, there's a special place in health 1806 01:47:15,640 --> 01:47:18,559 Speaker 2: for them. Find everything at Tony Kats dot com. I'll 1807 01:47:18,600 --> 01:47:20,240 Speaker 2: catch you on Monday. Everyone, take care,
