What the hell is that all about? Well, 10 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:33,600 Speaker 2: we'll explain. We'll get to Iran and the talks. We'll 11 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 2: get to NATO and pulling out of there. We'll get 12 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 2: to the crazy Democrats and what they're up to, the 13 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 2: Al Sharpton Convention. We'll get to this horrible case of 14 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:47,200 Speaker 2: this police officer in the Bronx who shouldn't be going 15 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 2: to prison, getting sent to prison by one of these 16 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,559 Speaker 2: crazy left wing judges. We'll get to that coming up, 17 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 2: and a whole lot more just ahead. The talks is 18 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 2: supposed to begin to tomorrow. Vice President Vance will be there, 19 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 2: Steve Whitkoff, Jared Kushner. There's talk of the Iranians not 20 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,040 Speaker 2: showing up doing something crazy. The Iranians are absolutely totally 21 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: crazy in negotiations, often deliberately impossible to negotiate with even 22 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 2: if he can. They never stick to anything they agree to. 23 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 2: But still a good thing, still a very good thing 24 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 2: to have. This two week pause gives us a chance 25 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:34,759 Speaker 2: to restock, rearm reset, develop all new targets. And if 26 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,919 Speaker 2: you do this two weeks of talks, no matter what happens, 27 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 2: they don't agree to anything, they don't show up, whatever happens, 28 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,559 Speaker 2: it's now an excuse to go back and finish the job. 29 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 2: It looks much better. If he gave the Iranians two 30 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 2: weeks to come to the bargaining table, they played games, 31 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 2: they wouldn't bargain perfect. Then you got the Then you 32 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 2: got the justification to go in there and just take 33 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 2: care of everything. So it could get If they don't 34 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 2: do anything in these bargaining talks, it could get pretty ugly. Now, remember, 35 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 2: anytime there's talks, negotiations, it's bumpy, it's ups and downs, 36 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 2: and anytime you have negotiations with absolute raging lunatics in 37 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 2: the Middle East, it's really bumpy. So don't get alarmed 38 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 2: if things go wrong or things blow up. That's perfectly normal. 39 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 2: Malania Trump yesterday shocked everybody. You know, she doesn't make 40 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 2: a lot of speeches or do press conferences or do statements. 41 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 2: Every so often, it's rare. And when she does, it's 42 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:39,799 Speaker 2: about a program she's put together for children, something like that. 43 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 2: She's redecorating the White House somebody. But this was very, 44 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 2: very very formal. This was a very stately formal looked 45 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: like a serious announcement. She came out and spoke for 46 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 2: about ten minutes about Jeffrey Epstein and how she had 47 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 2: no relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. There's been a lot of 48 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 2: lies about Jeffrey Epstein, these Michael Wolfe type books. You know, 49 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 2: Michael wolf is that wormy, creepy little slimeball who writes 50 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 2: these fake books and he makes up all kinds of crap. 51 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 2: And George Stephanopolis has him on and treats him like 52 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 2: an author. Meet the press will have him on. They 53 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 2: pretend he's a serious author. It's just a slimy, slimy 54 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 2: tabloid guy. He's the guy that, among other people, made 55 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 2: up this whole fake story. But it was Epstein that 56 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 2: introduced Trump and Malania absolutely no truth to that and 57 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,679 Speaker 2: all kinds of fake crap in these books. So she 58 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 2: let you know, set the record straight on all this stuff. 59 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 2: She'd met Jeffrey Epstein, there was a brief time where 60 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 2: she and her husband traveled in the same circles. That 61 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 2: means they were at the same gallows, they were at 62 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 2: the same parties. Epstein for a time was a member 63 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 2: of mar A Lago, came there to the big events 64 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,839 Speaker 2: and the parties. Trump found out what a sleez ball 65 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 2: he was, threw him out of mari A Lago, banned 66 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: him from mar A Lago. But other than that, had 67 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 2: no relationship and occasional hello. If Julaane wrote an email 68 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 2: to Malaney, she sent a nice email back, how was 69 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 2: Palm Beach? Glad you had a nice time? That kind 70 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 2: of stuff, But no relationship. Didn't know him, had nothing 71 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 2: to do with anything. Never went to his house, never 72 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 2: went to his island, never sat down with him, had 73 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 2: never had a lunch or a dinner anything. But And 74 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 2: she also called for hearings, interview the survivors, get all 75 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 2: these women, bring them before Congress. She called for this, 76 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 2: put them all, you know under oath, gave on this now. 77 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 2: The only problem with that is half of them will 78 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 2: be committing perjury. There are some terrible victims and survivors, 79 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 2: but you see so many of them out there, a 80 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 2: lot of them aren't survivors, then they're not victims. Every 81 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 2: shady lawyer all over Florida has been rounding up any 82 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 2: girl they can find now grown now women and said, 83 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 2: you know, if you can say this and this and this, 84 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 2: I can get you a hundred thousand, you'll give me fifty. 85 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 2: You'll take fifty. That kind of stuff. So if they 86 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 2: put people on the earth to start doing that, a 87 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 2: lot of them will probably disappear real fast. 88 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 3: You know. 89 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 2: Alan Dershowitz was Epstein's lawyer way back when two thousand 90 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: and seven, two thousand and eight, when he was getting convicted, 91 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 2: and as his attorney, Epstein had to tell him everything, 92 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,599 Speaker 2: everything juicy, everything with big names, and they wanted to 93 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 2: make a deal. Epstein was going to go to prison, 94 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 2: but they wanted to make a deal to get as 95 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 2: little prison time as possible. And the only way you 96 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 2: get that deal is if you can trade some information 97 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 2: on some big names. So Epstein had to tell Dershwitz 98 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 2: anything he had that he could use for a deal, 99 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 2: anything on the Trump's, anything on the Clints. He poured 100 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 2: out everything to Dershwitz, and Dershowitz is said on the 101 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 2: record he had nothing on Trump. There was nothing with Trump, 102 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 2: absolutely nothing, and if there had been, he would have 103 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,799 Speaker 2: used it. So here's Melania. 104 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 4: Yesterday, give this victims their opportunity to testify under oath 105 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 4: in front of Congress with the power of swar and testimony. 106 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 2: Now again, the big question why would she do this? 107 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 2: In fact, all over the MAGA world and Twitter world, 108 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 2: and there's why would she Epstein was fading away, why 109 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 2: would she bring this back? Why would she do Well, 110 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 2: here's the reason. I can't tell you specifically, but this 111 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 2: was to preempt things. There was stuff coming and she 112 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 2: did this to preempt it. There was a let's just say, 113 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 2: they were going to get her on a before a 114 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 2: Congression committee. They're going to put her under oath, make 115 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 2: her testify, which she she will do. But this is 116 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 2: to preempt that. Also, there's some Michael Wolf type stuff 117 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 2: coming in print to the terrible, stupid, slanderous, untrue not 118 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 2: So this was to preempt all of that stuff that 119 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 2: they knew was coming. But she's now calling for the hearings. 120 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 2: Get these women understand, put them under oath. 121 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 4: I'm not a weakness or a name weakness in connection 122 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 4: with any of Epstein's crimes. My name has never appeared 123 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 4: in core documents, the positions, victim statements, or FBI interviews 124 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,679 Speaker 4: surrounding the Epstein matter. 125 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good way to put it. Chord documents. 126 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: Because these Epstein files, there are millions and millions of pages. 127 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 2: Everybody is in them. Everybody, I'm in the Epstein files. 128 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 2: There's a lot of nothing bad, nothing bad, just silly. 129 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 2: You know, he came to an event, I was the 130 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 2: MC of somebody mentioned my show in an email. I mean, 131 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 2: nothing stuff. And everybody says, you can find every name 132 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: in New York in those files. But the chord She's right, 133 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 2: the chord documents, which means anything to do with anything bad. 134 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: And there's millions people in those files that didn't even 135 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 2: know Epstein. You know, all of his American Express bills 136 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 2: are in the files. You can if you want to 137 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 2: read through that, you can read all those American Express bills. 138 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 2: So every restaurant in New York is in the Epstein files. 139 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 2: Every great stores in there, because they're in the American 140 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 2: Express bills. Here's more Millennia. 141 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 4: The lies linking me with the disgraceful Jeffrey need to 142 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 4: end today. 143 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, so again, there are a lot of these lives 144 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 2: out there. The Michael Wolf type, sleeze ball, creepy little 145 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 2: guys you know who. He and others made up this 146 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 2: whole fake story. The Epstein that introduced her to Donald Trump. 147 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 2: None of that was true, and she explained the whole 148 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 2: story where they met, who introduced it had nothing to 149 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 2: do with Epstein. They didn't even know Epstein. She had 150 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 2: never met Epstein then, So that was to preempt some 151 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 2: things coming, and hopefully hopefully it did. Hey, the secretary 152 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 2: of NATO came to meet with President Trump. Now we 153 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 2: should get the hell out of NATO. It sounds like 154 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 2: a good idea on paper, this NATO, this alliance where 155 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 2: we all help each other. But but we spend all 156 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 2: the money, we pay for most of it, and we're 157 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 2: the one country they won't help when we need some help, 158 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 2: they won't help us. We asked them for help in Iran, 159 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 2: not like we asked for troops or joined in the fight. 160 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 2: We just wanted to use our air base in Italy. 161 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 2: They wouldn't let us use it. We wanted to fly 162 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 2: over country, wouldn't let us use it. So if we 163 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 2: pay all the money into NATO and they will do 164 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 2: absolutely nothing nothing. If we ask him for change of 165 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 2: a quarter, they won't give it to us. What is 166 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 2: the point of being in there? This is the secretary 167 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 2: of route the. 168 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 5: US runts more and more to pivot towards the Inner Pacific. 169 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 5: This is one of the reasons why in Europe you 170 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 5: have to step up and that period of codependence and 171 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 5: become more interdependent with the United States. It was in 172 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 5: the alliance, a stronger Europe and a stronger NATO. 173 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 2: Now you could tell just listen to this guy sounds 174 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 2: like a real sleeze ball. It sounds like when you're 175 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 2: you know, in a hotel in another country and something 176 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 2: goes wrong in the manager and he comes out.

He just 181 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,959 Speaker 2: sounds horrible. Jake Tapper, Is the world safer today than 182 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 2: interviewing him? Listen to? 183 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 6: Is the world safer today than it was before the 184 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 6: war was started? 185 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 5: Absolutely because and this is things to President Trump leadership, 186 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 5: the degrading these capabilities is really really very important for 187 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 5: your my safety here in the US, in Europe, in 188 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 5: the Middle East. 189 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 2: All Right, even this slimee ball has to admit going 190 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 2: into a ran and all that we did has made 191 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 2: the world a lot safer. But he'll have nothing to 192 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 2: do with it, nothing to do with it anyway. Hopefully 193 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 2: we get the hell out of NATO or get them 194 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 2: to make some big changes. Hey, that Al Sharpton convention 195 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 2: continues today. Every year Al Sharpton has this National Action 196 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 2: Network Convention. It's taken place right over there at the 197 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 2: New York Sharton began Wednesday. Yesterday was the first full day, 198 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 2: goes through the weekend, and every big Democrat comes to 199 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 2: kiss the ring of Al Sharpton and appear. Today's a 200 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 2: big day today. Kamala Harris appears fireside chat. Imagine listening 201 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 2: to this yo yo for an hour. Also in fact, 202 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 2: it's Al Sharpton interviewing her. For this is the two 203 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 2: most in our ticulate people in the world discussing issues, 204 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 2: and Democrats all sitting there like bobble heads, nodding like 205 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 2: these two idiots are making sense, and also Pete Boodha 206 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 2: Judge will appear, all kinds of speculation that he's going 207 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 2: to run in twenty twenty eight. I would think the 208 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 2: reasons for the speculation is he's totally useless. He hasn't 209 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 2: had a job in two years. He's out of work, 210 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 2: got nothing to do, and he's always wanted to run. 211 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 2: Got a lot of experience. He was the mayor of 212 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,839 Speaker 2: a tiny little town. Then he was the Secretary Transportation, 213 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 2: completely screwed up. Every inch of the job. Was a 214 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 2: total disaster. And in the democratic world, that's a resume, 215 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 2: that's a reason to run. So he'll be there today now. 216 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 2: The only thing is people at the convention tell me that, 217 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 2: you know, oh, Kamala Harris is going to talk who 218 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 2: Kamala Harris is gonna be there. They tell me that 219 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 2: there's absolutely no interest in Pete Booha Judge. Nobody buzzing 220 00:11:55,800 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 2: about him, Nobody that interested. Also, he's been running around 221 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 2: doing these kind of things. People will also tell you 222 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 2: that he is major pain in the ass. He's a 223 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 2: kind of a nobody in the democratic world. And he's 224 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 2: a cute guy. He's charging a little charm to him, 225 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 2: but an absolute nobody, and then whenever he comes to 226 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 2: peer at anything, he's a total diva. His demands are crazy. 227 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 2: He comes in like he's the President of the United 228 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 2: States with the demands for he needs this, he needs that, 229 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 2: he needs so he drives people crazy wherever he goes. 230 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 2: So that'll be today. 231 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 5: Hey. 232 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 2: Also, since they're both speaking, they'll both end up in 233 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 2: the green room together. I imagine it'll be cordial. But 234 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 2: remember he really expected to be chosen as Kamala's vice 235 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 2: presidential candidate. She wouldn't. She didn't choose him. I think 236 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 2: she actually said at one point there were too many 237 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 2: problems with him. So he's not going to be too 238 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 2: thrilled with that. But maybe they'll make up today in 239 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 2: the green room. Hey, this is awful, awful, awful case 240 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 2: in in the Bronx. Now there's a cop who has 241 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 2: to make a split second life and death decision. There's 242 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 2: a drug dealer. It's a sting operation. They're trying to 243 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 2: get these drug dealers and this one drug dealer jumps 244 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 2: on the motorcycle to get away. But as he tries 245 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 2: to speed away, he's heading into a bunch of cops 246 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:22,719 Speaker 2: and it looked like he was going to hit them 247 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 2: with his motorcycle. Now, how do you stop this guy? 248 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 2: You're a Danny Reagan on Blue Bloods. What do you do? 249 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 2: What would Danny Reagan do? Well, it was a big 250 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 2: cooler there, So the cop split second, I mean, do 251 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,439 Speaker 2: you let these cops get run over and really hurt? 252 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 2: He picks up the cooler and throws it at the motorcycle, 253 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 2: trying to knock the motorcycle down so it won't hit 254 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 2: the cops. Well, it's all split second. Nobody could predict anything. 255 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,479 Speaker 2: So he throws it. It hits the driver the motorcycle, 256 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 2: which goes into a tree, and the guy riding the 257 00:13:55,840 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 2: motorcycle is dead. He dies. Cop is charged with manslaughter, 258 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 2: a murder, you know all they charge them with anything 259 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 2: and everything. Now this is this is the bronx So 260 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 2: you got these left wing kook das, real real, real 261 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 2: left wing das. This is a Bronx DA. Remember you're 262 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 2: in the world of Tish James and Alvin Bragg, those 263 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 2: kind of types. So they prosecute the hell out of 264 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 2: this poor cop who really was a hero. I mean, 265 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 2: it turned out to be a mistake to do that. 266 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 2: But again, in a split second, decision. Who would know 267 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 2: he decides because he's in the Bronx. Remember Bonfire, the vanities. 268 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 2: You know, they're not going to trust a Bronx jury 269 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 2: against a cop. A Bronx jury will most likely crucify 270 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 2: a cop. So they decide we'll do a bench trial, 271 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 2: which means the judge will decide. But then they end 272 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 2: up getting this awful judge Guy Mitchell. I mean, if 273 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 2: you had the sentences cop, he convicted the cop probably shouldn't. 274 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 2: But let's say you do. It's a it's a cop, 275 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 2: a public servant. Let's you could almost argue why you 276 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 2: had to convict him, but it's a cop. Maybe you 277 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 2: give him a house arrest, you do, you don't send 278 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 2: him to prison. And if you talk to lawyers, if 279 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 2: they said, if you had to send him to prison, 280 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 2: maybe one year. This awful judge Guy Mitchell gave him 281 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 2: three to nine years over sentenced him like crazy. Now, 282 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 2: one of the problems was you had the Al Sharpton crowd, 283 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 2: the Black Lives Matter crowd, and what were they there 284 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 2: for to defend the drug dealer? Do pre was this thing? 285 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 2: They were there to defend the drug dealer. We're chanting 286 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 2: for him you know, trying to be menacing, intimidating everybody 287 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 2: in the courtroom say his name, yeah, all that kind 288 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 2: of stuff. Now, the only hope of this cop is 289 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 2: an appeal. Arthur Idella, great lawyer, he's he's gonna do 290 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 2: the appeal. Alan Dershowitz is volunteered to help out on this. 291 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 2: Here's Arthur Idella and. 292 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: He was a civilian under the same exact of circumstances. 293 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 2: I don't even think he would be charged. Yeah. Now 294 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 2: the thing is they got to get this out of 295 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 2: the bronx, get it to someplace normal, someplace sane, and 296 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 2: try to get this done. Prosecutors from Letitia James office 297 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 2: argued against this cop and was really it's just an awful, 298 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 2: awful situation and hopefully they'll do something now. This awful judge, 299 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 2: Guy Mitchell, there was another case where it was almost 300 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 2: the same thing and it was an awful awful drug 301 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 2: dealer and he pled guilty to the same exact charges. 302 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 2: He was a drug dealer, he's part of a gang, 303 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 2: a gang. The judge did nothing, gave him attle slap 304 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 2: on the wrist nine months. So the double standard of 305 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 2: this judge pretty obvious. It's just absolutely awful. Now, the 306 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 2: other thing about this judge, he's going to get sentenced 307 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 2: in a couple of months. He's or he got sentence, 308 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 2: but he's going to appeal in a couple months. Talk 309 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 2: to other judges. Every judge said there's no way they'd 310 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 2: put the guy in jail. They'd let him out on 311 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 2: bail pending appeal. This judge wouldn't give him bail. He 312 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 2: remanded him, which is unbelievable, really awful of this judge. 313 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 2: What happened to this no bail. It's no bail, no 314 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 2: jail for everybody except this guy. This guy remanded.

They did have to retract stuff. 335 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 2: So yeah, she has gone after them and she should 336 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 2: keep doing that. Let's go to Stuart in South Carolina. Stuart, 337 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 2: how you doing? 338 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 5: Hey, Mark car are you you know? 339 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 2: I was just going to say that it's. 340 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 7: Every officer's duty to protect others from eminent danger. There 341 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,199 Speaker 7: was a case where there was a guy shooting. The 342 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 7: officer hit him with his car because you have to 343 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 7: watch collateral damage. You're in a situation where you can't 344 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,399 Speaker 7: shoot someone who may be hurting other people, so you 345 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 7: do what you have to do to stop that imminent danger. 346 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 7: And the fact that there's no bond is just it's 347 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 7: so ludicrous. In New York City where they're letting everybody out, 348 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 7: it's just unbelievable. The morale and the department is down 349 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 7: to nothing. 350 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, hey, it's a long time law enforcement guy. This 351 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,880 Speaker 2: Gilgo beach rex Huremann. Have you ever seen a guy 352 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 2: look that crazy look like? Does he look like a 353 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 2: real serial killer? He looks crazy, doesn't he? 354 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 7: Yeah, he does look kind of nuts. You know, we 355 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 7: don't get a lot of the information down here when 356 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 7: it's gone down up there. 357 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 2: I followed that. 358 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 7: Case when it was first going on, and I was thinking, 359 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 7: there is a serial killer. But a lot of times 360 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,199 Speaker 7: who I found out through decades of law enforcement that 361 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 7: who you are inside very often comes on out in 362 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 7: your face and what you look like or what your 363 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,199 Speaker 7: home looks like, and it is indicative of who you 364 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:35,119 Speaker 7: are inside. 365 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, good point. All right, thanks for calling. Let's go 366 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 2: to Bob and New Rochelle. Bob, how you doing? 367 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 3: Hey? 368 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 2: Mark? How you doing. 369 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 8: I gotta tell you, if I had a child that 370 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,719 Speaker 8: was looking to go into law enforcement, I would do 371 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 8: everything in my power to dissuade them. It has turned 372 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 8: into such as show. It's disgusting. It just strives me nuts. 373 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 8: And I certainly hope that this guy has happened. Any 374 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 8: time President Trump comes in, partis them. 375 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 2: But I can't. If they can't, he can't partner. But 376 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 2: it's a local case, it's not a federal case, So 377 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 2: can't partner, but the governor should partner. Hey wa'ts Bruce Blakeman. Hopefully, 378 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 2: hopefully he'll make an issue out of this stupid case. 379 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 2: Hopefully should do something about it. District attorneys are under 380 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:16,160 Speaker 2: the governor. Yeah, no, this, but being in law enforcement 381 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 2: is a very very honorable, noble profession. I understand what 382 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 2: you're saying. But maybe, and this is probably the case. 383 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 2: You want to go into a law enforcement you go 384 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 2: into it in Westchester, in Nasau County, or somewhere else, 385 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 2: not in New York where you're at the mercy of 386 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:33,959 Speaker 2: these crazy, insane judges. Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent, 387 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 2: how you doing. 388 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 3: Good morning, Mark, Good morning Matra Mark. Between this verdict 389 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 3: throwing the book at this cop and last week the 390 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 3: judge and the jurry not convictim Jonathan Dilla's kill a 391 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 3: first degree murder, this is, as Stuart said, this is 392 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 3: lowering the morale of the police force. Cops are not 393 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 3: going to reop after they had twenty years, going to 394 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 3: get out or if they're not already vested, Florida and 395 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:08,120 Speaker 3: the other Red states are going to take them because 396 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 3: they're being treated better in other States, and also the 397 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 3: SANTIS is giving them like a five thousand dollars incentive 398 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 3: to move down there. And this is just what these 399 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 3: Kamis like Vandami want. They want all the best detectives, 400 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 3: people like Stewart, all the old timers. They want them 401 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 3: to leave. And this judge, this spineless piece of s 402 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 3: The only one of the reasons why he people like 403 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 3: him do that is because they don't want Hawk Newsome 404 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:47,199 Speaker 3: and that other garbage from BLM protesting outside their house 405 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 3: like they do to Schumer. And then he quakes in 406 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 3: his boots and he caves in the way. 407 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 2: That's not the only reason these judges have got This 408 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 2: guy's name is Guy Mitchell, appointed by Deblasio. Many of 409 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 2: them are left wing kooks and left wing coppatriot some 410 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 2: of these judges. 411 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 3: But this is really bad because also this is what 412 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 3: Mandamie wants. People are gonna they're not gonna re up 413 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 3: already there's a shortage of detectives. I think we're supposed 414 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 3: to be up to seven hundred, were down to four hundred, 415 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 3: and Mandami's not gonna high up more people. 416 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 2: Absolutely right, it's gonna be. It's gonna we gotta go 417 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 2: for the news, Vincent, it's gonna be a problem, but 418 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 2: great call.

John Carney, how you doing very good? 435 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 6: Mark, thanks for having me. 436 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 2: Hey, these numbers that came out today, inflation, consumer price 437 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 2: of course, the fake news will make it look like 438 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 2: disastrous numbers. What's the real story. 439 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 6: So the real story is something everybody knows. Gasoline prices 440 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 6: went up a lot during the Iran War. We have 441 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,959 Speaker 6: the shutdown of the straight or for moves, pushed up 442 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 6: gasoline prices, pushed up oil prices. But beyond that, the 443 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 6: numbers are actually really good. Their grocery prices fell zero 444 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 6: point two percent for the month. Overall inflation was up 445 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 6: just zero point two percent. That's actually less than what 446 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 6: was expected. So this is very much confined to gasoline, 447 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 6: other energy products a little bit, but really a story 448 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 6: where you had a lot of inflation of higher prices 449 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 6: in gas that didn't spread to the rest of the economy. 450 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 6: It's not a story of well, we're paying more for gas, 451 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 6: so other prices are going up. 452 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: No. 453 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 6: In fact, the opposite looks like it's happening. We're getting 454 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,120 Speaker 6: a better supply story in a lot of things. Prices 455 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 6: aren't moving up. It's really just gas prices. 456 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 2: And do you have any doubt that gas will come 457 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,880 Speaker 2: right back down as soon as the Iran stuff is over. 458 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, Look, it's already oil prices have fallen dramatically because 459 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 6: of just the ceasefire. We're not even really getting that 460 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:54,360 Speaker 6: much oil through the straight up her mood. Yet there's 461 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:58,919 Speaker 6: a lot of unclarity about what's going on there. But 462 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 6: the price have dropped from we were up near one 463 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:06,640 Speaker 6: hundred and ten dollars barrel down into the nineties. They'll 464 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 6: probably drop further that will be reflected in gas prices. 465 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 6: So yes, that's going to come off very quickly, and 466 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 6: I think we're going to see some very good results 467 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 6: in the future when it comes to these inflation numbers. Again, 468 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 6: this is just a gasoline story. 469 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, so we don't get oil from the Straits. We 470 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 2: really don't need it. I know, are US oil they 471 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 2: raise the prices to match the world price, But couldn't 472 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 2: they not do that? Could they just keep the price 473 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 2: where it is based on the fact that we have 474 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 2: plenty of oil. 475 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, look, we do have plenty of oil. But actually, 476 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 6: one of the things that happens when the price of 477 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 6: oil goes up around the world is it increases demand 478 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 6: from other places for US oil. So Japan can't get 479 00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:01,679 Speaker 6: oil right now from the Persian golf, so they're putting 480 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 6: in orders for US oil. So that's why our price 481 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,959 Speaker 6: went up, is people are turning to US. I actually 482 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 6: think there may be not a permanent increase to oil 483 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 6: prices from this, but a permanent shift in demand towards 484 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:25,120 Speaker 6: the US. Meaning people who were from countries, whether it's Japan, 485 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 6: South Korea, even China that we're getting a lot of 486 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,880 Speaker 6: their oil from the Persian Gulf now realize that that's 487 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,159 Speaker 6: not as secure as they thought, and they're going to 488 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,640 Speaker 6: start saying, we need to have better relationships with US 489 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 6: oil producers so that we can get more of it 490 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 6: from there, not be as reliant as we have been 491 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 6: on the Persian Gulf. We do have a problem in 492 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:51,719 Speaker 6: that the environmentalists have basically prevented US from building a 493 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 6: pipeline to the West Coast, which would make it much 494 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 6: easier to, you know, take our oil from North Dakota, 495 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 6: from Oklahoma, from Texas and bring it into Asia. Right now, 496 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,199 Speaker 6: believe it or not, Mark the oil goes all the 497 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 6: way from the Gulf of Mexico all the way around 498 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:15,639 Speaker 6: South America and then up to Asia. It's basically like 499 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 6: a nineteenth century whaling ship has to sail all the 500 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 6: way around South America to get all They can't even 501 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 6: get through the Panama Canal because these oil tankers are 502 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 6: so big in the Panama Canal is one already, you know, 503 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 6: basically stuffed to the gills with traffic. And number two, 504 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 6: it can't take the giant oil tankers. It can take 505 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 6: smaller ones, but the oil goes all the way around, 506 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 6: which is sort of mind blowing that we're still doing that. 507 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 2: Well, so, John Connie, the left yelling and screaming, look 508 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 2: what Trump did to the gas prices. Look what that's 509 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 2: doing to your pocketbook. But didn't the left do that 510 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 2: to your energy bill or electric bill used to be 511 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 2: one hundred dollars now it's five hundred. Isn't that what 512 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,199 Speaker 2: the left did because of their green schemes and all 513 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 2: that stuff. 514 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:04,119 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, Look, energy prices to be high. They really 515 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 6: want oil prices to be high. If they could, if 516 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 6: they could get their way, oil prices and gasoline prices 517 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 6: would be much higher. All you have to do is 518 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 6: look at where oil price, where gasoline is cheaper, and 519 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,399 Speaker 6: where it's more expensive. It's super expensive in states like 520 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 6: California that have enormous taxes on gasoline, So they would 521 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,360 Speaker 6: And why do they want gasoline to be expensive. One 522 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 6: they want people to stop using fossil fuels. Two, when 523 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 6: you get it, when you get the price of gasoline 524 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 6: to go up. It makes the idea of getting an 525 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 6: electric car a little bit more attractive because you say, 526 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 6: I wouldn't have to pay as much for gasoline. So 527 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 6: they're trying they want these things to be more expensive 528 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 6: so that their green scheme alternatives look relatively less expensive. 529 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 6: It's phony when they complain about the price of gasoline 530 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 6: going up. They want it higher. And if they get 531 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 6: a elected into office, believe me, what we've seen right 532 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 6: now will be nothing compared to what we will be 533 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 6: paying for gasoline if we have a Democratic Congress and 534 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 6: a Democratic president. 535 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,719 Speaker 2: Well, John Carney, right, by Business. I just we've been 536 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 2: quoting you all week. We're talking about the stock market, 537 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 2: you know, crashing on the beginning of Iran. It's soaring, 538 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 2: and you called it an overreaction machine. I think that's 539 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 2: the best description of it. It really is, that, isn't it. 540 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 6: Absolutely? Look one of the things that happens is investors 541 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 6: basically begin to overreact and then you get a recursiveness 542 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 6: because they see stocks starting to fall and you know, 543 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 6: they sold a little, and then they say, oh it's 544 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 6: going down even more, I better sell more. So you 545 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 6: do get this overreaction, and then it also over corrects 546 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 6: the other way, where you get these huge jumps. Over time, 547 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 6: it tends to even out. Right, it's in the short 548 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 6: term it can look absolutely nuts. But when we look 549 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 6: back on say stocks this year or even last year, right, 550 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 6: stockworker did really well last year even though we had, 551 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 6: you know, the Liberation Day reaction where stocks crashed. So, 552 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 6: you know, my advice to everybody is, look, unless you're 553 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 6: a you know, like a trader at a Wall Street 554 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 6: firm or a hedge fund and you know you're trying 555 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 6: to trade that little that volatility that happens, you know, 556 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 6: look past that stuff. What's going to happen over the 557 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 6: year is all of these ups and downs will look 558 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 6: very small compared to what the actual trend of stocks. 559 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, we went through this with terras remember that stock 560 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 2: market crash and then we hit all the time eyes 561 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 2: after that. 562 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 6: So that's right, And what the reason is because ultimately 563 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 6: what stocks reflect is the shape is how the economy 564 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 6: is doing. The economy is actually doing quite well. We 565 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 6: have a lot of tailwinds in the economy right now 566 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 6: that are actually stronger than the higher price of gasoline. Yes, 567 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 6: higher price of gasoline is a drag on the economy. 568 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 6: But all of the Trump tax cuts that are hitting 569 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 6: right now, all of the deregulation that's hitting right now, 570 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 6: that's actually propelling the economy forward even stronger than the 571 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 6: higher gas prices are a drag. So I think we're 572 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 6: actually going to see accelerating growth through the year. 573 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 2: Wow. All right, that's a good note to end on. 574 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 2: Very good.

So summers a couple months away, but you'll 601 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 2: get a preview all in next week. So Democrats, you're 602 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 2: crazy liberal left wing friends. You know, it's like if 603 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 2: you ever know somebody in a cult, you can't talk 604 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 2: to them. You can't talk them out of being in 605 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 2: the cult. You can't tell them what's wrong with the cult. 606 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 2: They're not going to listen to you. So they're kind 607 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 2: of like people in a cult. You know, they watch MSNBC, 608 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 2: they watch CNN, and you can't argue with what they're 609 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 2: being told. Because they when they look at MSNBC, they 610 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 2: actually think they're watching some sort of a newscast. The 611 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 2: set looks like a news set that anchors got glasses 612 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 2: and a bow tie, and they think they're watching hard news. 613 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 2: They're just watching crazy, made up stuff. You know, Malania 614 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 2: met Donald Trump through Jeffrey Epstein, and they believe all 615 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 2: this kind of stuff. Then they put on this guy, 616 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 2: Michael Wolfe, this wormy little author, to discuss how close 617 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 2: Trump was to Epstein. Well, if you read through the 618 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 2: Epstein files, in which I have, it's millions of pages, 619 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 2: but you'll see Trump was not close to Epstein. He 620 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 2: knew him briefly one hundred years ago. But you'll see 621 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 2: that nobody was closer to Epstein. Nobody was more tangled 622 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 2: up with Epstein than Michael wolf They were conspiring every day, 623 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 2: meeting every day, talking every day, emailing a thousand times 624 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 2: a week back and nobody had a tighter relationship with 625 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 2: Epstein than Michael Wolfle. You watch this. This guy puts 626 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 2: out these videos every day. He I'm looking at the 627 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 2: one today. It's about how shameful it was that Melanie 628 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 2: would have anything to do with Epstein. Nobody had more 629 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 2: to do with Epstein than Michael Wolfe. They never mentioned 630 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 2: that when they interview him. Never bring it up, Never 631 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,959 Speaker 2: show all the emails that were going back and forth 632 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 2: between the two of them. Hey, we got a lot 633 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 2: to get to in the next hour. We'll get to Iran, 634 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,839 Speaker 2: We'll get to more about the crazy left coming up, 635 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 2: We'll get to Artemis and more.
