1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:05,040 Speaker 1: What are two words or concepts that are about as 2 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: far apart as humanly possible. How about South American burglary 3 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 1: gang and mech one Wisconsin. Yet over the weekend, those 4 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:25,400 Speaker 1: two concepts were alarmingly mashed together and yet another reminder 5 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: of just how disastrous the Biden administration was for people 6 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 1: across Wisconsin and across the country.

Who would 23 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: have thought a South American burglary ring would be operating 24 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: in Mechwe. Mechwan, of course, is one of the wealthier, 25 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 1: one of the more desirable suburbs of Milwaukee. It is 26 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,559 Speaker 1: widely known as an upscale place where there really isn't 27 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: a whole lot of crime, So naturally there's a massive 28 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 1: influx of South Americans who have apparently been praying on 29 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: people's assumptions that Mechwan is a safe place, and they 30 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: have been sneaking through wooded areas, in backyards and breaking 31 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: into homes while people are out. Channel twelve ABC affiliate 32 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: WISNTV Kendall Keys, the reporter on this shocking story from 33 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 1: over the weekend. 34 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 2: Tail cameras and mech one capturing video of people wearing 35 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 2: backpacks and gloves with their faces covered creeping through the loose. 36 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 3: Burglars are not an uncommon thing, but the amount of 37 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 3: burglars are happening the way they're happening, it's uncommon. 38 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,079 Speaker 4: Mechwan Police Captain John Hale says. 39 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 2: Investigators believe the same group has broken into about a 40 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 2: dozen homes there this year. 41 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 3: This is happening throughout the state and throughout the United States. 42 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 2: Tell me about this organization, what do you know about them? 43 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,959 Speaker 3: Basically, what we know is that they're from South America 44 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 3: and then they're coming up here to commit these crimes. 45 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 2: In all of the cases Mekwan police have investigated, they 46 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 2: say the group of burglars walks through the woods, approaching 47 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 2: a house from the backyard, then they get in by 48 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 2: breaking a door window. The burglars targeting homes and coul 49 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 2: de sacs, striking in the early evening hours of Thursday 50 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 2: through Sunday when no one is home. 51 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 3: They're taking people's jewelry currency in high end handbags. That's 52 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 3: all they're taking in a house now. 53 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: These crimes, it is believed, are linked to a national 54 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: burglary ring that was striking athletes while they were out 55 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: at games, including Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis, who had 56 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: his home burglarized while he was playing a game. This 57 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: is very likely to be an interconnected event with very 58 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: powerful South American street gangs and drug cartel affiliated actors 59 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: who are engaging in just whatever sort of crimes that 60 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: they can commit, and what they're looking for are wealthy 61 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: targets who oftentimes will leave their doors unlocked because they 62 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: don't think anything like that could ever happen to them. 63 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: Coming up on the Dan O'Donnell Show. This is part 64 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: and parcel of an illegal immigration crisis that has flooded 65 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: communities where you wouldn't think there would be an issue 66 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: with illegal immigrant resettlement, like Whitewater, like Green Bay, where 67 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: the migrant population suddenly exploded in the Biden administration's massive 68 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: push to get as many people in as many swing 69 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 1: states as humanly possible for reasons that are totally independent 70 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: of elections. Wink wink. This has led to massive problems 71 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: there culturally, in terms of the crime rate, in terms 72 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: of the strain on social and public services. This is 73 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: a problem that this country is still dealing with. Yes, 74 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: the Trump administration came in at least sealed off the 75 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: southern border, but the problem is the Biden administration let 76 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 1: untold millions of people into this country, even going so 77 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: far as do you remember this when the Texas National 78 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: Guard put up its own razor wire fence at the 79 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: southern border. The Biden administration actually took a bulldozer to 80 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: that fence and reopened the border while a crowd of 81 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: migrants were watching and immediately rushed into the country as 82 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: soon as the bulldozer cleared the way for them. What 83 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: a powerful summation of the worst possible immigration policy that 84 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: any president could ever possibly come up with. What about 85 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: in the last month or two of the Biden administration. 86 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 1: Not only did this administration tear down Trump's border wall, 87 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 1: which was already constructed in parts of Texas and Arizona, 88 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: it was selling off the pieces of the wall for 89 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:01,559 Speaker 1: five dollars a girder, so that Trump wouldn't be able 90 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: to simply put the wall back together again, and obviously 91 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: wouldn't be able to do so for the exact same 92 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: price because of the inflation that has led to a 93 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,679 Speaker 1: massive explosion in the cost of raw materials. In short, 94 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 1: the Biden administration was a disaster for refugee resettlement from 95 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: countries where there was no refugee crisis. Folks, the Biden 96 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: administration's immigration scam was designating people who had no legal 97 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: right to claim asylum status or to claim refugee status 98 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: into this country, giving them parole and allowing them to 99 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: essentially live illegally forever. People from say Guatemala, are not 100 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: refugees because there's a lot of poverty in Guatemala. They 101 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: do not get to claim asylum in the United States 102 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: because there is a lot of drug violence in Guatemala. 103 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 1: There's a lot of drug violence in Milwaukee. People don't 104 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 1: get to commit US. They don't get to claim asylum 105 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: to leave Milwaukee to go to a home in Mechwan 106 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: that the illegal immigrants South American street gangs are now 107 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: apparently targeting. But this was the big scam from the 108 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,559 Speaker 1: Biden administration. While the border is sealed, while the Trump 109 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: administration immediately closed off the border, we're still dealing with 110 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: the ramifications of all of the people who came here. 111 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: A lot of them are tied into organized crimes, specifically 112 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: drug cartels, which now have gotten into the business, or 113 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: at least they did when Biden was president and the 114 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: border was wide open, of smuggling people across the border, 115 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: of human trafficking. Of yes, now it seems burglary rings. 116 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: So what is it our Democrat leaders in Madison are 117 00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: trying to do about this, because this story just floated 118 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: across social media over the weekend. Naturally, there is not 119 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: going to be any sort of follow up in any 120 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: mainstream news outlet. I noticed the Milwaukee Journal Setinel was 121 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: not particularly hot to trot to follow up on Channel 122 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: twelves reporting about the South American burglary gang that has 123 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: been operating in one of the wealthiest communities in its 124 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: readership base. I have noticed that not a single other 125 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: television station has picked up on this reporting in either 126 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: the Milwaukee or Madison media markets. It seems as though 127 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: this story has spread like wildfire on social media because 128 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:42,839 Speaker 1: so many people are so taken aback by what communities 129 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: are targeted. So what are our leaders in Madison doing. 130 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: We have a crisis of all of these people who 131 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: are in this country committing crimes and need to be deported. Well, 132 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: our leaders in Madison, very naturally are trying their best 133 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: to obstruct the people ICE agents who would be deporting 134 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: them and keeping the people of Mechuan safe from the 135 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: illegal alien South American burglary ring members who have been 136 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:17,439 Speaker 1: victimizing them for the past couple of weeks. Ryan Clancy 137 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: State Assemblyman. He is also I believe, still in the 138 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: Milwaukee Common Council. He is an open and proud socialist. 139 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: He has posted an ad on social media on Instagram 140 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 1: for the United Front Ice Verifiers training at the Capitol 141 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: this Thursday, November twentieth, from one to three pm at 142 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: the Capitol, specifically in the North Hearing Room, there is 143 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: going to be training for radical leftists to try to 144 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 1: spot ICE agents and man the neighborhoods where they might 145 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: be conducting federal investigations. Naturally, this post was shared by 146 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 1: fellow socialist assemblywoman Francesca Hawn, who also happens to be 147 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 1: a candidate for governor. Clancy writes in sharing this graphic, 148 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: which shows an ICE agent with a mask over his face, 149 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 1: He writes, as Immigration and Customs enforcement continues to abduct 150 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: people from our streets and communities, community verifiers are the 151 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 1: first line of defense, heading into neighborhoods to determine whether 152 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: calls to the hotline are legitimate and require additional action. 153 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: The hotline is an ICE operations hotline that this group 154 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: has set up where you can call in and give tips. Hey, 155 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: there are ICE agents who are in the neighborhood of 156 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: sixteenth in Wisconsin. I don't know they're doing deportation raids 157 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 1: at the Marquete Campus first intersection. I came up with 158 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: that popped into my head a lot of times, though 159 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 1: people will be mistaken, like do you remember our friend 160 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: the Wauka Shaw alderman Rico not So Macho Camacho, who 161 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 1: lost his job as a teacher at a Catholic high 162 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: school because he falsely identified just four random dudes in 163 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: downtown Wauka Shaw as ICE agents and attempted to dox them, saying, hey, 164 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: I believe these guys are ICE agents. Everybody watch out, 165 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 1: look out. He posted a picture of their faces. Now 166 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 1: what we know is that these crazies, the whole reason 167 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 1: that ICE agents wear masks is because crazy psychopaths like 168 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 1: Rico not So Macho Camacho, Ryan Kantz at Clancy Francesco 169 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: Hong are ginning up their followers using language like ICE 170 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: continues to abduct people from our streets and communities, making 171 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: them out to be some sort of unholy monsters, even 172 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: going so far as routinely call them brown shirts, the Stasi, 173 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: the secret police, overt Nazi references designed to make people 174 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 1: think that violence or any sort of resistance to legitimate 175 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: law enforcement action is somehow justified and even necessary, but 176 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: a lot of times these calls will be wrong, a 177 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: lot of times they'll be prank calls. So what this 178 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 1: training session is apparently for is for people to actually 179 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: go into the neighborhoods once there's an ICE agent spotted 180 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: and verify whether there is actually an ICE investigation. So 181 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: the message from Clancy goes on, join us to be 182 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: trained to become a community verifier with Komite sin Fronteras. 183 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: This training in the North Hearing Room from one to 184 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 1: three pm Thursday, November twentieth is open to elected officials, staff, 185 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 1: and members of the public. No pre registration is necessary 186 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 1: and there is no cost to participate. How exactly is 187 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: the Wisconsin capital allowed to be used for what amounts 188 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: to a coordinated effort to interfere with legitimate law enforcement activities. 189 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: What this sounds like is training people to obstruct justice. 190 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 1: And yes, whether libs want to admit it or not, 191 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: reality exists with or without their consent. ICE deporting people, 192 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: ICE getting people to be deported is a legitimate law 193 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:40,319 Speaker 1: enforcement operation. Imagine if you will, that I used this 194 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: radio talk show because I so hated the Milwaukee Police Department. 195 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: I don't I love the Milwaukee Police Department. I happen 196 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: to think the chief of Police of Milwaukee is a 197 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: buffoon who is desperate to get out of the city 198 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 1: and interviews for pretty much every job he can find. 199 00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: He clearly doesn't want to be here anymore. But the 200 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: break men and women of the Milwaukee Police Department have 201 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: my utmost and undying respect. But imagine if I just 202 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: despised the Milwaukee Police Department. And if I because I 203 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,719 Speaker 1: have a lot of sources within law enforcement, within the 204 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: legal community, within the political community, and all of this. 205 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: Imagine if I was using this to broadcast when and 206 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: where MPD officers were going to be executing arrest warrants, 207 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: and as a result of what it was that I 208 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: was doing, and I was actually sending our listeners, I 209 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: was sending members of DAN Nation into the community to 210 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: investigate whether the tips I was getting were correct. Hey, 211 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: do you see a bunch of cops lined out, lined 212 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 1: up in front of a door, getting ready to bash 213 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: it in. We should probably tell the people inside that 214 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: they need to get out. That's obstruction of justice. This 215 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 1: is the promotion of obstruction of justice by multiple members 216 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: of the Wisconsin Legislature using the People's House in Wisconsin, 217 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: the state capital to commit said obstruction. Now, this training 218 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: is set for Thursday. Hopefully someone will step in to 219 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: say this is a totally inappropriate use of the capital, 220 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: but I doubt it. Conservatism and Contemporary Style. Francesca Hong, 221 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: Darren Madison, and Ryan Clancy, all socialist left wing members 222 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: of the Wisconsin Assembly, are all promoting an event at 223 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: the Wisconsin Capital this Thursday afternoon to train ice notifiers, 224 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: that is, to go into a community when someone calls 225 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: the This is a group calling itself the United Front. 226 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: When someone calls into the hotline to report ice activity 227 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: in a given area, the these people will go into 228 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: that neighborhood to verify and make sure there's actually ice 229 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: there so that they can warn all of the people 230 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: in that neighborhood to avoid the area because ice is 231 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: come on. This is obstruction of justice. Now, it would 232 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: be a shame. It would be an absolute shame if 233 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: somehow the United Front's Ice Verifyer hotline where anyone can 234 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: call up and can report ice activity. It would be 235 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: a shame if that number became public and I don't know, 236 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of people started calling it and giving 237 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: false locations for where ICE is. Now, I'm not going 238 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: to be the one to tell you to do this. 239 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 1: I cannot tell you to do this. I cannot be 240 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: the one to tell you what the number is. I 241 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: cannot tell you that the number is one eight hundred 242 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: four to two seven zero two one three. I mean, 243 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: that would just be that would be too much. I think. 244 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: I cannot tell you that the phone number one eight 245 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: hundred four to two seven oh two one three is 246 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: run by Vosas de la Fronterra and its arm Comte 247 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 1: son Frontras to help verify the locations of ICE. I 248 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: would never do that. I would never give out that 249 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: number one eight hundred four to two seven oh two 250 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 1: one three. I mean maybe, just like that Waukeshaw alderman, 251 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:41,239 Speaker 1: that left wing crank Rico not so macho Camacho, who 252 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: I hear is mulling a run for state Assembly. Talk 253 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: about failing upwards. He's a Waukeshaw alderman who got fired 254 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: because he falsely identified a bunch of random dudes as 255 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 1: ICE agents while they were just chilling in downtown Waukeshaw. 256 00:17:56,520 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: Now he wants to run for this state legislation. Sure, 257 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: that is just too much maybe you folks who call 258 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 1: this hotline, you just see ICE agents everywhere because they're 259 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: so terrifying, because they are so Nazi like, And we 260 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,360 Speaker 1: just want to make sure that these new recruits at 261 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 1: the Ice Verifiers training session are you know, able to 262 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: get their money's worth here, that that they're they're put 263 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 1: to work very quickly. I mean, it would be a 264 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 1: shame if people were calling up and just reporting ice 265 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:35,880 Speaker 1: in the farthest flung areas of a city, forcing these 266 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: people to expend time and resources to go to all 267 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: of these places on a wild goose chase. I mean, 268 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 1: that would be terrible. But I of course would never 269 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 1: ever ever do something like that, because you know, you 270 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 1: guys can find the Ice Verifiers hotline anywhere and learn 271 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 1: for its yourself that it's one eight hundred and four 272 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,360 Speaker 1: to two seven two one three. I mean, I don't 273 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 1: need to tell you that the number is one eight 274 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: hundred and four to two seven two one three. I 275 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: don't need to do that, folks. These are the people 276 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: who are tasked with keeping you safe, writing the legislation 277 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: to keep you safe from the South American gangs which 278 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 1: are now apparently setting up shop in Mechwan. Now, this 279 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: is nothing new. The people of Whitewater and the people 280 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: of Green Bay have been dealing with this very thing 281 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:41,400 Speaker 1: for years. Way back on December twenty eighth, twenty twenty three, 282 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: the Whitewater Police Chief Dan Meyer and the city manager 283 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: John White sent a formal letter to President Biden and 284 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: twelve other federal and state officials outlining these significant challenges 285 00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: that the small city of about fifteen thousand p people, 286 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 1: a university town in central Wisconsin faced because of the 287 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 1: rapid influx of about eight hundred to one thousand migrants 288 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: from Nicaragua and Venezuela since early twenty twenty two. According 289 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:23,679 Speaker 1: to this letter, there was a threefold increase in unlicensed 290 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: drivers on roadways in and around Whitewater. Traffic stops spiked 291 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four. So too did juvenile assaults, sexual assaults, 292 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: and child welfare cases. For example, unattended children in an 293 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: apartment fire, as well as a baby left in a 294 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: field in twenty twenty three. This led to an unprecedented 295 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: strain not just on the criminal justice system in the 296 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: Whitewater community, but also so in the social system. This 297 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 1: led to a strain on schools all of a sudden, 298 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 1: Whitewater elementary and secondary schools needed to teach English as 299 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: a second language, and guess what, there's a shortage of 300 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: English as a second language teacher. So all of a sudden, 301 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: you've got all of these kids who are coming into 302 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: the school system. You need to educate them, and you 303 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:31,239 Speaker 1: can't because there's such a significant language barrier. Now, the 304 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 1: Whitewater situation actually did generate some headlines, primarily nationally. I 305 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: believe Breitbart dot Com was the first news site to 306 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: break that story of the letter. Certainly we didn't have 307 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: a whole lot of coverage locally. But while that did 308 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: generate headlines, far fewer people are aware of what's been 309 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 1: going on in Green Bay. That city is a population 310 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: about one hundred hundred and seven thousands somewhere in there. 311 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 1: The city is seen since twenty twenty one an uptick 312 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: in two thousand to three thousand new migrants three percent 313 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,880 Speaker 1: of the population, just randomly overnight. This is like two 314 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,719 Speaker 1: or three neighborhoods full of people popping up in a 315 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: small city in Wisconsin from Venezuela, Nicaragua, and Haiti. It's 316 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: primarily concentrated in the southeast and downtown portions of the city. Now, 317 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 1: what do we know happens? When all of a sudden, 318 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,959 Speaker 1: you get an increase in a concentrated area of people, 319 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: You need to house them. Not only do you need 320 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,239 Speaker 1: to educate the children. Not only do you need to 321 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: police them, Not only do you need to take care 322 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: of them with respect to fire and ambulance and emergency services, 323 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: you need to house them. Every single one of those 324 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: people needs to go somewhere. Now, when you have a 325 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 1: two to three percent increase in the population, very very suddenly, 326 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: but of course there isn't a commensurate two to three 327 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 1: percent increase in the amount of available housing, what happens, 328 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 1: Prices go up. It's the scarcity principle. This is economics 329 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 1: oneh one. All of a sudden, there is way more 330 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 1: competition for the same level of available resources. Since twenty 331 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: twenty one, rents have increased fifteen percent in Green Bay, 332 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 1: far outpacing wages and dramatically outpacing much of the rest 333 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: of the state. In addition, the cost of owning a 334 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:46,679 Speaker 1: home has increased by about twenty five to thirty percent 335 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: just since twenty twenty one. Now, there are, of course, 336 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: a confluence of factors. There all the fault of Democrats 337 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 1: at the national level. The primary one was bide inflation, 338 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: the increase in the cost of literally everything. But a 339 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,959 Speaker 1: big reason for this is people just need to live somewhere, 340 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 1: and if all of a sudden they're competing with two 341 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,199 Speaker 1: to three percent of an entire city who have just 342 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:18,199 Speaker 1: materialized out of the ether. Well, if there isn't a 343 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: two to three percent increase in the number of apartments, 344 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: in the number of houses, which we know there hasn't 345 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: because housing and apartment starts are way down since the 346 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,160 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight housing bubble burst, well then you're 347 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: going to get intense competition for people in these areas, 348 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 1: and you are going to get price increases. Now, why 349 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: are so many people, so many illegals from Venezuela and 350 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: Haiti and Nicaragua going to Green Bay, Well, because, as 351 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 1: the name green Bay Packers would suggest, green Bay has 352 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 1: a very and not quite as significant as it did 353 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: back in the day when the Acme Packing Company decided 354 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: to sponsor a football team, but it's got a very 355 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 1: active meat packing industry. The meat packing industry employs a 356 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 1: whole lot of people of questionable immigration status. Now, of course, 357 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: as you know it is illegal. It is against federal 358 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 1: law to employ illegal immigrants anywhere. This is why we 359 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 1: need widespread everify services so that employers will know whether 360 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: someone is or is not illegal. The idea here is 361 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 1: that we don't want to entice more illegal immigration because 362 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:35,199 Speaker 1: people think they can come up here illegally and get jobs, 363 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: make far more money than they would in Nicaragua or Venezuela. 364 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: They need to come here legally. Do you remember back 365 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,360 Speaker 1: in early September we hear on the Dan O'Donnell show, 366 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: made a big deal out of this, because it was 367 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: a big deal our governor, the man in charge of 368 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 1: enforcing this state's laws, as our chief executive in the 369 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 1: state of Wisconsin, said well, you can't possibly crack down 370 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 1: on illegal immigration. You can't possibly deport people who are here, 371 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 1: because this state's economy would collapse if you got rid 372 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: of all the illegal immigrant labor. 373 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 5: I believe that in Wisconsin, our ability to keep our 374 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 5: undocumented people working like they are now at a really 375 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 5: high numbers in the state of Wisconsin. If he takes 376 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 5: us to an improper end, Trumpet, our economy will be gone. 377 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 1: We won't have an economy if all of the illegal 378 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 1: immigrants cannot illegally work in my state. That was Governor 379 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 1: Eavers September two of this year. That is quite the admission, 380 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 1: and it's an admission that he wants as many illegals 381 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: in his state as humanly possible. On Saturday evening, we 382 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: reported exclusively via my social media at Dan O'Donnell's show 383 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: on Exfacebook dot com slash Dan o'donald show, or also 384 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 1: on Instagram as well that President Trump, well specifically Attorney 385 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: General Pam Bondi, but directed by President Trump, nominated Brad 386 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: Shimmel to be the interim US attorney for the Eastern 387 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: District of Wisconsin. Wisconsin is divided into two federal court districts. 388 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 1: There is the Eastern District, which is based in Milwaukee, 389 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 1: and the Western District, which is based in Madison. There 390 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:40,199 Speaker 1: are federal district judges in both courts. There is a 391 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: US attorney who essentially serves as the lead federal prosecutor 392 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:49,719 Speaker 1: in each of those As is custom, the president at 393 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 1: the start of a new term will get rid of 394 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:56,120 Speaker 1: a whole lot of his predecessor's US attorneys if the 395 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 1: predecessor was of the prior political party. This was only 396 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:04,119 Speaker 1: controversy when George W. Bush tried to get rid of 397 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: a couple of prosecutors about fifteen twenty some years ago. 398 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: When Bill Clinton first got into office, he fired every 399 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: single US attorney in the country that was appointed by 400 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: George HW. Bush. George W. Bush tries to do the 401 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: same thing to Clinton's US Attorney's Big scandal. It was 402 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:28,879 Speaker 1: a great illustration of just how biased the media was 403 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: even back then. You'll notice, though, that Shimmel was not 404 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: named US Attorney. He is interim US Attorney. This does 405 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: not require Senate approval, meaning it does not require a 406 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 1: full vote in the Senate. Shimmel is able to serve 407 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: for one hundred and twenty days before his interim period lapses, 408 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: and then he would either need to be renominated on 409 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 1: an interim basis or renamed on an interim basis, or 410 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: or President Trump could appoint him and then the Senate 411 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: would vote on him. Why wasn't Shimmel just appointed US attorney? 412 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: Why is he the interim US Attorney? Why do we 413 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 1: need to go through this extra step. I had my 414 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: suspicions when the story was first presented to me on 415 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: Saturday evening, but I didn't want to speculate. Now that 416 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 1: she has put out a press release on it, I 417 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 1: can report that it is because US Senator Tammy Baldwin 418 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: baselessly objected to Shimmel, who is one of the most 419 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: qualified people to ever be nominated or ever serve as 420 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: a US attorney in Wisconsin. He was the Attorney General 421 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 1: of the state of Wisconsin. He was the District attorney 422 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: of Waukeshaw County, one of the state's largest counties. He 423 00:29:55,040 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: was also a state Circuit Court judge out of Wakkeisha County. 424 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 1: He served with distinction in all of those roles. But 425 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 1: because he just ran and lost for a seat on 426 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: the Wisconsin Supreme Court, and because Tammy Baldwin pretty much 427 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 1: just does whatever her Democrat masters in the Senate tell 428 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: her to do, she refused to fill out a blue 429 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 1: slip on Shimmel. What is a blue slip? It is 430 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: literally a piece of paper that senators from the state 431 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 1: where a vacancy in a federal judgeship or US attorney 432 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 1: role is open, they get to fill out their thoughts 433 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 1: on the nominee. Now, in Wisconsin, there's actually an informal commission. 434 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: Each senator names three people to this commission, and they 435 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: actually review all of the applicants. They'll interview them, they'll 436 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: talk to them, and then the two of US senators, 437 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: one a Republican Ron Johnson won a Democrat Tammy Baldwin, 438 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 1: will each fill out their blue slip giving their thoughts. First, 439 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: they'll give their recommendations to the president on who they 440 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 1: believe would be the best candidates to fill this position. 441 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: And then once they get their blue slip, they will 442 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 1: either fill it out giving a glowing recommendation. They'll say, oh, 443 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 1: I object to this, or they just won't fill out 444 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 1: the blue slip at all. And typically if that happens, 445 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: that means they object so strongly that the nomination will 446 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: be withdrawn. The Trump administration, perhaps sensing that there was 447 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: no way Tammy Baldwin was ever going to fill out 448 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 1: a blue slip for Brad Shimmel or anybody they nominated, 449 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 1: simply bypass the commission altogether, said we really like Brad Shimmel. 450 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: Brad Shimmel is eminently qualified. We don't need to go 451 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 1: through this whole song and dance of a blue slip 452 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: nomination process. Is it required that the Trump administration or 453 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: any presidential administration actually abides by the blue slip. No, 454 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 1: it's an informal process. There is no The only advice 455 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: and consent role that the Senate has is a straight 456 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: up or down role. Tammy Baldwin has no more of 457 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: a say on whether Brad Schimmel should be the US 458 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: Attorney of the Eastern District of Wisconsin than Ted Cruz 459 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: down in Florida, right down in Texas, excuse me, or 460 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 1: Rick Scott down in Florida. It is ridiculous that obstructionist 461 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 1: Democrat senators can actually nuke nominations and have nominations withdrawn 462 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 1: because they don't like somebody. Now this works the other way, 463 00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 1: of course. Two do you know Congressman Mark Pokan He 464 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 1: has a brother who wanted to be a federal judge, 465 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: and Joe Biden nominated him to. I believe it was 466 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 1: the Western District of Wisconsin's court Ron Johnson refused to 467 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: fill out a blue slip. Pocann's nomination died. William Pokanne. 468 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: I believe his name is turn About. It would seem 469 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:28,800 Speaker 1: as fair play, but the Trump administration just decided to 470 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: completely bypass what would obviously be an unfilled out blue slip. 471 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: Baldwin released a press release today saying that today President 472 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: Trump announced that he was installing Shimmel to be interim 473 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 1: US Attorney for the Eastern District of Wisconsin. Blah blah 474 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah. She said, uh buh boy, 475 00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: it's a real wordy one. You can tell that she 476 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 1: uh does She didn't write this one. Oh, here we go, 477 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 1: Here we go. As President Trump. It took me like 478 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: five paragraphs. As president, I don't have the version that 479 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: I highlighted. As President Trump politicizes our justice system. It 480 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 1: is more important than ever that the people serving in 481 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 1: the courts and on the bench are committed to upholding 482 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:29,239 Speaker 1: the rule of law, not loyalty to the president. She's 483 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: very upset that President Trump bypassed this Wisconsin Commission, which 484 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 1: isn't a real thing. It is just an informal advice 485 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 1: and not even advice and consent. It says, Hey, what 486 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: do you think about this guy? Well? I like him, 487 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,760 Speaker 1: Well I don't like him. Tammy Baldwin doesn't like Brad 488 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: Schimmel because Brad Shimmel is a Republican. End of reasons, 489 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: he's got prosecuting experience at the county level. At the 490 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: state level, he's got judicial experience. Name me one other 491 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 1: person in the state who has the resume that Brad 492 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 1: Shimmel does to be US attorney. I will wait. Seriously, 493 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 1: this is just blind partisan hatred, and the Trump administration 494 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 1: was right to say, you know what, we're done with it. Now. 495 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:25,840 Speaker 1: You'll notice they didn't do the full Senate nomination because 496 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 1: the Senate probably would respect still the blue slip, so 497 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 1: they wouldn't actually schedule a vote unless Trump did some 498 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:39,280 Speaker 1: serious arm twisting here on Shimmel's nomination, so it would 499 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 1: just languish. And in the meantime, the Biden appointed guy 500 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: will actually no, he was fired right away, so the 501 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 1: guy who was serving as his lead assistant US attorney 502 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 1: would continue to have the role. Hanstad, I believe, was 503 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 1: the guy Gregory Hanstad that Biden nominated, and of course 504 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 1: the Senate approved because he was qualified. You'll notice Ron 505 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:14,760 Speaker 1: Johnson did not blue slip Hanstad. Why not? Why? Because 506 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,800 Speaker 1: he was qualified. Brad Shimmel is qualified. The only reason 507 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 1: you could disapprove of him is because you don't like 508 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 1: the fact that he's a Republican. There's no other possible reason. 509 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:29,840 Speaker 1: But the Senate probably would still respect that blue slip 510 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,800 Speaker 1: and wouldn't either vote for Shimmel because of it, or 511 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:36,720 Speaker 1: wouldn't more likely take up the vote. So we've got 512 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 1: an interim US Attorney designation on Shimmel. Expect that at 513 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 1: some point to be a permanent US attorney position. You're 514 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 1: listening to the Dan O'Donnell show. Every single American should 515 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: be furious at the cover up that both the FBI 516 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 1: and the national media have done for more than a 517 00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 1: year on the would be assassin of them candidate and 518 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:06,320 Speaker 1: former President Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, Thomas and Crooks. 519 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 1: They said they couldn't discern a motive. I long said 520 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 1: the motive was killing Donald Trump. But now we know, 521 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 1: thanks to of all places, the Tucker Carlson Show as 522 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,719 Speaker 1: well as the New York Post, that there was a 523 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 1: long digital trail that Thomas Crooks left behind before he 524 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,760 Speaker 1: was shot and killed by a Secret Service sniper shortly 525 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:37,399 Speaker 1: after shooting multiple shots, one that raised President Trump's ear 526 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:42,759 Speaker 1: and another that killed a firefighter, Corey Comparatory, who was 527 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: sitting in the stands of that speech. In the four 528 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:51,399 Speaker 1: o'clock hour. We will get into exactly what this guy 529 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: was all about the truth that the FBI and the 530 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 1: gatekeepers in the national press wanted to keep from you. 531 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,719 Speaker 1: I'll also check in with Dave Spanno on why the 532 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 1: markets seem to be giving back all of the game 533 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:08,760 Speaker 1: since Liberation Day and the daily Trump Day that's coming 534 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:09,360 Speaker 1: up next. 535 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 6: So. 536 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 1: I don't know about you, folks, but I used to 537 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 1: be one of these hardcore Christmas season starts the day 538 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:21,840 Speaker 1: after Thanksgiving people. I was. I truly was. I was 539 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: an absolutist. Was I was a Thanksgiving hardliner? Okay, I 540 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 1: have softened on that. Got a confession. I've been listening 541 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: to a whole lot of Christmas classical music while I work. 542 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 1: I have been listening to a lot of Christmas songs 543 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:46,240 Speaker 1: in the car, primarily because my eleven year old daughter 544 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 1: is already forcing us to take down fall decorations and 545 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 1: put up Christmas so I spent much of my morning 546 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 1: taking down all of our orange lights, which I usually 547 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:02,440 Speaker 1: keep up. We have a inflatable turkey for Thanksgiving. I 548 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 1: told you I was a Thanksgiving absolutist. I was toying 549 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 1: with the possibility, folks, because I am already in the 550 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 1: Christmas spirit. I am experimenting with a new thing in 551 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 1: my personal life. The Christmas season has officially started for me. 552 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 1: It didn't start the day after Halloween like some of 553 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 1: you crazies, but it started maybe a week or two ago. 554 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,200 Speaker 1: Just got back from Rome with a group of listeners 555 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 1: and our friends at Cruise and Tour. A lot of 556 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 1: the stores already decorated in Rome for Christmas. Went to 557 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 1: I went to Brookfield Square Mall. Actually, I was just 558 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 1: in the area. I don't even remember what forour and 559 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 1: I just wanted to stop by. I was shocked. There 560 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 1: may be five stores left in that entire mall. That 561 00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:02,319 Speaker 1: is not a dying mall. That is a mall with leprosy. 562 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:06,680 Speaker 1: That is that is already Because my good I can't 563 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:10,800 Speaker 1: fathom that Brookfield Square is going to survive much past 564 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 1: this year or next. I have no inside information on this, 565 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:19,800 Speaker 1: but my goodness, that is. And this is while Mayfair 566 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 1: Mall in Milwaukee, just a couple of blocks away. It's 567 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,239 Speaker 1: what almost straight east off of Blue Mound, Mayfair is 568 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:31,840 Speaker 1: between Capital and North on Mayfair Road Highway one hundred. 569 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:37,760 Speaker 1: It's doing just fine. I just wonder if it's there's 570 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 1: so much retail on Blue Mound Road, like at Moreland 571 00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 1: and Blue Mound, all the way up to Barker Road. 572 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 1: That's just that's one of the biggest retail sectors in 573 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:51,239 Speaker 1: Southeast in the entire state, let alone Southeast Wisconsin. I 574 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:53,919 Speaker 1: just wonder if a lot of the big retail has 575 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: moved to their own standalone stores. You don't have any 576 00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 1: anchor stores at Brookfield Square for nonetheless, nonetheless, nonetheless. All 577 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 1: of this is to say, I saved you, folks. I 578 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:12,240 Speaker 1: was this close to having all Christmas bumper music today 579 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 1: as it stands as it stands, and I thought, you 580 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 1: know what, even for me, even in the new like 581 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 1: Ebenezer Scrooge at the end of the play Dan, there 582 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 1: are a whole lot of Ebenezer Scrooges at the beginning 583 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: of the play in this audience. I don't judge. I 584 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 1: mean I kind of do. No, I don't it even 585 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:37,839 Speaker 1: for me. This is a little bit too early. We 586 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 1: will be doing all Christmas bumper music starting next week, which, 587 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:46,799 Speaker 1: believe it or not, is the week of Thanksgiving. Yes, 588 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,120 Speaker 1: we will still be doing for those and a number 589 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:51,919 Speaker 1: of people have already emailed me asking are we going 590 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 1: to be playing rush Limbaughs the real story of the 591 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:59,839 Speaker 1: First Thanksgiving. You'd better believe we are. It is our way. 592 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:03,320 Speaker 1: We're on the Dan o'donald's show of keeping Rush's memory 593 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,840 Speaker 1: alive and saying eternally that we are thankful for what 594 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 1: he did for the conservative movement and what he did 595 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:12,799 Speaker 1: for all of us. All Right, you want to join 596 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 1: the Dan o'donald Show. Four one, four, seven, nine, nine, eleven, 597 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 1: thirty one, eight hundred and eight three eight, nine fours 598 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 1: seven six. Yeah. My daughter who is? She is like 599 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 1: little miss Christmas. She was pushing real hard for Daddy 600 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:29,120 Speaker 1: to start Christmas bumper music today out of the mouths 601 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: of babes. She said, if you do, I might actually 602 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:36,919 Speaker 1: listen to your show. I get no respect. I tell 603 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:38,680 Speaker 1: you no respect. 604 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 4: Whoa, whoa? 605 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:42,280 Speaker 5: Whoa? 606 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 1: Was this? I thought we were going to do the 607 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:51,280 Speaker 1: Daily Trump date. Producer Jeff, have you already quit? Producer 608 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 1: Jeff unfortunately is leaving us. Friday is going to be 609 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 1: his last show. So he's decided for his second last 610 00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:59,919 Speaker 1: he's gonna sabotage me. Let's just go with it. Unhinge label. 611 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:01,800 Speaker 1: We are in pre Nazi Germany. 612 00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 7: Oh tough is dangerous because he's evil. 613 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:17,400 Speaker 1: America. Is that works? It works. We didn't get to 614 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 1: it at the end of the three o'clock hour, and 615 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 1: I wanted to get to this story. Today's unhinge liberal 616 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:24,360 Speaker 1: of the day is none other than Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers. 617 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:28,960 Speaker 1: In an interview on Upfront with host Matt Smith, he 618 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:33,880 Speaker 1: was asked whether he condemned the Department of Public Instruction 619 00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:40,960 Speaker 1: covering up hundreds of investigations into teacher sexual misconduct. He 620 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:48,880 Speaker 1: was given every opportunity to do so, and he didn't. 621 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 1: Do you think it was appropriate for the department to 622 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,279 Speaker 1: essentially not tell the public about. 623 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 2: Some two hundred investigations that spanned a five year period. 624 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 5: It's hard to say I wasn't, but I will just 625 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 5: say this about that. The issue of grooming is it's 626 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 5: very difficult. And do we want to take teachers and 627 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,320 Speaker 5: essentially make them into robots? 628 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:15,840 Speaker 8: What? 629 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 1: Probably not, So let's figure it out. 630 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 5: Let's figure that out first before we start hammering the 631 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 5: DPI or hammering teachers of the state. 632 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:28,920 Speaker 1: This, by the way, is the guy who calls himself 633 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:36,880 Speaker 1: the Education governor. We don't want to turn teachers into robots, 634 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 1: so we need to not report when they're accused of 635 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 1: grooming students. Tony Evers, your unhinged liberal of the day. 636 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 1: We'll get to the daily Trump day coming up in 637 00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:53,280 Speaker 1: just a second. We will also get to Dave Spono, 638 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,399 Speaker 1: who is the CEO of Annex Wealth Management, to help 639 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:58,840 Speaker 1: you know the difference, talk about why there's been a 640 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:02,080 Speaker 1: pretty significant mark sell off over the last week amid 641 00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 1: earnings season, and the earnings reports have actually been pretty good. 642 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:11,319 Speaker 1: But Governor Evers in this interview was trying to do 643 00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 1: this tap dance around the very serious issue of teacher 644 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:20,759 Speaker 1: grooming and the more serious issue of the Department of 645 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 1: Public Instruction and school districts covering it up. Look, I'm 646 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:30,360 Speaker 1: not saying that the underlying crime teachers who may be 647 00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:35,360 Speaker 1: grooming or molesting or sexually harassing their students isn't serious, 648 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 1: but providing them continued access to potential victims is about 649 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:47,560 Speaker 1: the worst thing that education bureaucrats could be doing. DPI, 650 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:52,640 Speaker 1: and each individual school district has an affirmative duty first 651 00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:57,480 Speaker 1: and foremost to keep each one of Wisconsin's school children safe. 652 00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: Right we all sort of agree on that for five years. 653 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:05,359 Speaker 1: An investigation by the Captimes revealed a couple of weeks ago, 654 00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:10,520 Speaker 1: DPI did not inform the public in any proactive way 655 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:16,880 Speaker 1: about roughly two hundred investigations into teachers who were credibly 656 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 1: or perhaps not credibly accused of sexual misconduct or grooming behaviors, 657 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 1: or something along those lines. Dozens of those teachers were 658 00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:34,440 Speaker 1: allowed to voluntarily surrender their licenses in exchange for those 659 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:39,080 Speaker 1: investigations going away. That to me is the most serious 660 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 1: aspect of this. That those people could then be employed 661 00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 1: by different school districts in jobs that don't require teaching licenses. 662 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:51,440 Speaker 1: They could become coaches, They could move to another state, 663 00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:55,719 Speaker 1: apply for a teaching license there, start fresh, and continue 664 00:46:55,719 --> 00:47:01,279 Speaker 1: the cycle of child sexual abuse all over again. Is 665 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:05,600 Speaker 1: symptomatic of a wider problem in education that you have 666 00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:10,359 Speaker 1: bureaucrats who are far more interested in protecting themselves and 667 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:14,080 Speaker 1: their friends within the bureaucracy than they are in protecting children. 668 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 1: They have, in other words, refused to do their most 669 00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:21,759 Speaker 1: basic responsibility of protecting kids because they would much rather 670 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:27,799 Speaker 1: protect themselves. Turning now to the world of finance, we 671 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:32,440 Speaker 1: check in with Dave Spano, the CEO of Annex Wealth Management. 672 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:36,240 Speaker 1: It was yet another down day on the markets today, Dave, 673 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,439 Speaker 1: but we're at the tail end of earning season. We've 674 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 1: got the big Nvidia earnings called today. It seems like 675 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:47,560 Speaker 1: the fundamentals of the economy are very strong, So why 676 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:50,000 Speaker 1: is it that the market keeps going down? 677 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,680 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's really a good point. You know, ninety five 678 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 7: percent of the way through earning season. Nvidia is actually 679 00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:00,279 Speaker 7: after the close, not today, the day after. 680 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 1: So but tomorrow. I'm sorry, I was a mistaken I 681 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,160 Speaker 1: thought it was today. You're right, it is tomorrow. 682 00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:05,400 Speaker 6: It is. 683 00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:07,520 Speaker 4: Seasons. 684 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:09,880 Speaker 1: That's my that's my dolt. 685 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 7: So hey, listen, fifteen point four percent was earning's rise. 686 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:15,960 Speaker 7: I mean that that is really good. It's better than 687 00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:18,239 Speaker 7: it's been. We still have you know, we're still going 688 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:20,880 Speaker 7: to wait to get Nvidia and cost Co uh in 689 00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:24,120 Speaker 7: a couple of other but there's really good information out there. 690 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 7: Earning season has been good GDP three point eight percent 691 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:30,759 Speaker 7: and expected to print even higher. So if you get 692 00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,399 Speaker 7: a four or five percent GDP report, that generally translates 693 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 7: into good equity returnings in returns, the FED has lowered 694 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:42,279 Speaker 7: rates and we're in seasonally a good time of the year. 695 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:46,440 Speaker 7: So your question you're posing is why are people so cautious? 696 00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:50,000 Speaker 7: And one of the things is been this data fog 697 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:53,560 Speaker 7: that we have been in because we haven't had we 698 00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 7: haven't had some public reports. The FED is unclear now. 699 00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:01,080 Speaker 7: So there was almost a ninety percent ants that the 700 00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 7: FED was going to lower rates when they meet again 701 00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:07,080 Speaker 7: in the first week of December. That now is down 702 00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:10,440 Speaker 7: to under fifty percent, getting to forty percent. So it 703 00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 7: certainly looks like the FED, may you know, they're going 704 00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:15,000 Speaker 7: to see this data that they're going now going to 705 00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:17,399 Speaker 7: get over the next week or two and find out 706 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:19,399 Speaker 7: if they're going to go forward or not. But there's 707 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:23,160 Speaker 7: a possibility that interest rates are not going to go down. 708 00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:25,840 Speaker 7: And then of course there's been this overvaluation, or at 709 00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:30,080 Speaker 7: least the attempted thought that the overvaluation of AI stocks 710 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:33,720 Speaker 7: has just gotten against gotten in front of its fundamentals. 711 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:35,840 Speaker 7: So that's the other side of the story. That's the 712 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,320 Speaker 7: bear market of the story. But you, as you and 713 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:41,480 Speaker 7: I have talked about before, what is the longer term picture, 714 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 7: and that is really what investors should be focusing on. 715 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 1: Well, the short term picture, I think is as you said, 716 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 1: clouded by the fact that we're not getting data from October. 717 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:52,399 Speaker 1: I believe Caroline Levitt, the White House Press secretary said 718 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 1: a week or so ago that we're probably not ever 719 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,880 Speaker 1: going to get the jobs numbers from October. Does that 720 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:02,680 Speaker 1: serve to sort of spook investors? Well, if it was 721 00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:07,040 Speaker 1: a blowout jobs report, the White House very obviously would 722 00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:10,520 Speaker 1: want that out there. Has that led to kind of 723 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:14,919 Speaker 1: the idea that, hey, maybe the underlying fundamentals the job 724 00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:18,520 Speaker 1: market is a little bit worse than people thought. I 725 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: remember with this AI boom, as as we are building 726 00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:25,759 Speaker 1: up AI systems, there's always this persistent fear in the 727 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,879 Speaker 1: back of people's minds that this is going to take 728 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:32,840 Speaker 1: a whole lot of jobs, that the automation, robotics and 729 00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:35,640 Speaker 1: AI are going to replace a whole lot of workers. 730 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 1: Is there a fear that, maybe to some small extent, 731 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:41,319 Speaker 1: that's already started. Yeah, that's exactly right. 732 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,840 Speaker 7: So you know, the monthly payable numbers have gone down already. 733 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,480 Speaker 7: In twenty twenty four, that monthly number is around one 734 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:49,000 Speaker 7: hundred and sixty eight thousand. That's now down over the 735 00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:52,520 Speaker 7: last three months to about twenty nine thousand, not only 736 00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:55,800 Speaker 7: because of this AI thought that this might take jobs 737 00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:57,160 Speaker 7: and we haven't seen that happen yet. 738 00:50:57,280 --> 00:50:58,919 Speaker 4: I mean, the idea is it's supposed. 739 00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:02,279 Speaker 7: To make employee easy more efficient, But there's certainly a 740 00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:07,000 Speaker 7: weaker demand for workers by businesses, and there's clearly a 741 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:11,680 Speaker 7: weaker supply because of reduced immigration. Those two things together 742 00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:16,600 Speaker 7: likely means that the job market is in a tenuous spot. 743 00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:19,399 Speaker 7: And you put it on top of that that all 744 00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:23,640 Speaker 7: of this talk about the about tariffs being inflationary, as 745 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:26,839 Speaker 7: I said and you talked about that was a bunch 746 00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:29,399 Speaker 7: of bologney that has not come through yet. 747 00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:32,000 Speaker 1: In fact, there was a big article. 748 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 7: That your listeners can can go find on the Wall 749 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:37,719 Speaker 7: Street Journal this weekend that talked about perhaps tariffs are 750 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:41,800 Speaker 7: deflationary and that could push prices down in the in 751 00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 7: the longer term. So we're going to have to watch 752 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:46,759 Speaker 7: that for sure and see how the Fed reacts. Their 753 00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:49,200 Speaker 7: conversation is going to be really interesting on the first 754 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 7: week of de summer. But even if they don't cut rates, 755 00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:54,160 Speaker 7: and the betting markets can change between now and then, 756 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:55,359 Speaker 7: they're going to have. 757 00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:56,880 Speaker 1: Another meeting in January. 758 00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 7: And so the idea is are is the economy is 759 00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:04,160 Speaker 7: the Fed in restrictive state right now? In other words, 760 00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:07,839 Speaker 7: are those interest rates too high, too slow and it's 761 00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:10,440 Speaker 7: going to slow down the economy if they miss on 762 00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:12,279 Speaker 7: this again, and as you know, I've been kind of 763 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:16,239 Speaker 7: a FED basher recently, if they miss on this again 764 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,800 Speaker 7: and keep rates too high when the economy is slowing, 765 00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:22,040 Speaker 7: they could push us to us even slowing economy, and 766 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:23,960 Speaker 7: that our word is going to come out again. That's 767 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:28,480 Speaker 7: a small possibility right now. When this data blackout goes away, Dan, 768 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:30,239 Speaker 7: I think we're gonna get a whole lot more information. 769 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 7: It's going to be a very anticipated FED report. San 770 00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:39,480 Speaker 7: Francisco president Mary Dally said that that she thinks it's 771 00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:42,120 Speaker 7: a dubvish case and we want to see more growth 772 00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:44,000 Speaker 7: before they start the lowering rates again. 773 00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:47,040 Speaker 1: Oh boy, well, I for what I'm hoping that Jerome 774 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:50,400 Speaker 1: two light Powell is not too late once again.

But the reality is that Biden's 799 00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:13,960 Speaker 1: inflation did a number on American families, and it is 800 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 1: now on the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress to 801 00:54:17,719 --> 00:54:21,479 Speaker 1: do something about it lest they get the blame, which 802 00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:24,920 Speaker 1: of course the media is itching to do for the 803 00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:29,439 Speaker 1: sins of the prior administration and Democrat policies which are 804 00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:35,520 Speaker 1: always inflationary and always economically ruinous. So that's coming up 805 00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:39,160 Speaker 1: in about a half hour. Earlier today, at the Oval Office, 806 00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:43,960 Speaker 1: President Trump welcomed leaders of FIFA, the world governing body 807 00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 1: of soccer, to start talking about the United States hosting 808 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 1: the World Cup next summer, along with Canada and Mexico. 809 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:54,920 Speaker 6: This will be at once in a lifetime opportunity to 810 00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:59,239 Speaker 6: showcase the greatness of American world class athletic competition as 811 00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:03,879 Speaker 6: we celebrate Nations two hundred and fiftieth year. The World 812 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:08,520 Speaker 6: Cup will also be an incredibly significant economic opportunity for counculus, 813 00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 6: American workers and businesses. It's expected to drive more than 814 00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:16,319 Speaker 6: thirty billion dollars. Johnny, I don't know about that. That 815 00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:17,600 Speaker 6: sounds like a lot of money. 816 00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:20,440 Speaker 1: Think that's throwing you sure on the present too much? 817 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:26,080 Speaker 6: Does the country get out of that percentage of the 818 00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:32,640 Speaker 6: grosser This full negociation, and it's going to create nearly 819 00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:35,000 Speaker 6: two hundred thousand jobs for America. 820 00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 1: The World Cup is scheduled to begin in June, as 821 00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:45,000 Speaker 1: World Cup qualifying is starting to wind down across the world. 822 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,560 Speaker 1: This will be the second time the United States has 823 00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:50,320 Speaker 1: ever hosted the World Cup the first back in nineteen 824 00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:53,640 Speaker 1: ninety four. Now, the President, as he always does these 825 00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:58,560 Speaker 1: sorts of things, answered reporter questions about a variety of topics, 826 00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:04,840 Speaker 1: including the attack on cartel drug runners coming out of Venezuela. 827 00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:10,000 Speaker 1: He said he is continuing to protect America from the 828 00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:13,520 Speaker 1: scourge of fetanol, but he would be open to meeting 829 00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:17,880 Speaker 1: with Venezuelan President Nicholas Maduro. And he was of course 830 00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:22,400 Speaker 1: asked about his sudden reversal. In a post on truth 831 00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:25,280 Speaker 1: Social over the weekend, as well as in an interview 832 00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:29,720 Speaker 1: aboard Air Force One, he said he is now all 833 00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 1: four releasing every single one of the Epstein files that 834 00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:40,239 Speaker 1: is available and legally allowable to be released. Now, he 835 00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:43,319 Speaker 1: was asked, why this sudden reversal. 836 00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:45,839 Speaker 6: We have nothing to do with Epstein. The Democrats too. 837 00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:49,840 Speaker 6: All of his friends were Democrats. You look at this Riedhoff, 838 00:56:49,960 --> 00:56:53,200 Speaker 6: and you look at Larry Summers, Bill Clinton. 839 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 4: They went to his. 840 00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:57,640 Speaker 6: Island all the time, many of this oil democrats. All 841 00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,239 Speaker 6: I want is I want for people to RECOGNI as 842 00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:04,520 Speaker 6: a great job that I've done on pricing on affordability, 843 00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,239 Speaker 6: because we've brought prices way down, but they go way 844 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 6: lower on energy, on ending eight wars and another one 845 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:15,759 Speaker 6: coming pretty soon. I believe we've done a great job, 846 00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:20,280 Speaker 6: and I hate to see that deflect from the great 847 00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:21,280 Speaker 6: job we've done. 848 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 1: That, Ladies and gentlemen, your daily Trump date. Now, it 849 00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:29,080 Speaker 1: isn't just that President Trump wants to take the pressure 850 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,240 Speaker 1: off of him and wants to get back to bread 851 00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:34,000 Speaker 1: and butter, meat and potatoes. Issues like the economy, although 852 00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:37,920 Speaker 1: that's a big part of it. President Trump fell victim 853 00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:41,640 Speaker 1: to what's known as the Strysand effect, named after Barbara 854 00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:45,760 Speaker 1: Streisand who there was some issue with her house in 855 00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:48,160 Speaker 1: Los Angeles years and years and years ago, and she 856 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 1: publicly complained about it, drew attention to it, and then 857 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:55,200 Speaker 1: way more people knew where Barbara Streisand lived, sort of 858 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:58,200 Speaker 1: defeating the purpose of all of this. So anytime you 859 00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:01,920 Speaker 1: draw attention to something that you don't want attention drawn to, 860 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:05,880 Speaker 1: it's known as the Streisand effect, the idea that by 861 00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:10,520 Speaker 1: you talking about something, you are elevating it. He fell 862 00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:14,680 Speaker 1: victim to that. But also what we learned from the 863 00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:19,400 Speaker 1: release of the Epstein emails over the past couple of days, First, 864 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:25,280 Speaker 1: Democrats perfectly timed when the government was set to reopen 865 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:31,200 Speaker 1: the release of three, count them, three emails designed to 866 00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:35,960 Speaker 1: make it look like Trump was hanging around some unnamed 867 00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 1: Epstein victim. They even went so far as to redact 868 00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:44,840 Speaker 1: that victim's name when we knew it to be Virginia Giuffrey. 869 00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:49,320 Speaker 1: She has said in depositions and publicly that Donald Trump 870 00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:54,640 Speaker 1: did nothing untoward with her or anyone else that she saw. 871 00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:59,480 Speaker 1: That Trump was always a perfect gentleman. Remember this dates 872 00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:02,720 Speaker 1: back to well before Trump and Epstein had a very 873 00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:05,560 Speaker 1: public falling out in two thousand and four two thousand 874 00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:09,240 Speaker 1: and five over some real estate transaction, and the two 875 00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:12,840 Speaker 1: never really spoke again. Well. Democrats tried to make it 876 00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:17,680 Speaker 1: seem like Trump was, of course, very guilty of colluding 877 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:22,440 Speaker 1: with Jeffrey Epstein to procure underage girls for himself or 878 00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:25,400 Speaker 1: people in his orbit, But all the emails that were 879 00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:30,440 Speaker 1: then subsequently released by Republicans on the Houseover Site Committee, 880 00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:35,680 Speaker 1: thousands and thousands of them, showed that it was Michael Wolfe, 881 00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:40,920 Speaker 1: a very prominent serial liar and alleged journalist who has 882 00:59:40,960 --> 00:59:45,800 Speaker 1: been very critical of Donald Trump, was colluding with Epstein 883 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:49,920 Speaker 1: on how to best get Trump when Trump was running 884 00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:53,560 Speaker 1: for president. Epstein was well known in twenty fifteen to 885 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:58,680 Speaker 1: be a scumbag who got the sweetheart plea deal to 886 00:59:58,880 --> 01:00:03,280 Speaker 1: essentially make a child sex trafficking case out of Florida 887 01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:09,000 Speaker 1: go away. Not only that we knew that several reporters 888 01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:12,840 Speaker 1: for The New York Times tipped off Epstein about a 889 01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:17,280 Speaker 1: possible federal investigation into him. And oh, by the way, 890 01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:21,400 Speaker 1: a short time later, Epstein was arrested in a federal investigation. 891 01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 1: Not only that, a non voting member of the House 892 01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:30,400 Speaker 1: of Representatives, a delegate from Puerto Rico, Democrat of course, 893 01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:36,640 Speaker 1: by the name of Stacey Plasquet, was texting Epstein as 894 01:00:36,720 --> 01:00:41,760 Speaker 1: she was questioning Trump's attorney Michael Cohen during a hearing 895 01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:44,160 Speaker 1: years ago. And in fact, if you look at the 896 01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:49,000 Speaker 1: video it's floating around social media, it synced up to 897 01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:53,360 Speaker 1: when the texts were sent and received. You can actually 898 01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:57,480 Speaker 1: see Plasquet looking at her phone and then asking Cohen, 899 01:00:57,520 --> 01:01:01,080 Speaker 1: who was then loyal to Trump. Remember he then very 900 01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:04,080 Speaker 1: famously had a break with Trump and then testified against him. 901 01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:09,200 Speaker 1: And now he's on every MSNBC or I guess it's 902 01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:13,560 Speaker 1: now called ms now show that there is blasting Trump 903 01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:16,680 Speaker 1: because he was his former fixer. But back then he 904 01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:19,000 Speaker 1: was loyal to Trump, and he was called to testify 905 01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:25,080 Speaker 1: before Congress. Plaskett actually asked a question that Jeffrey Epstein 906 01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:31,640 Speaker 1: had her ask as Trump said, the Epstein files are 907 01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:35,840 Speaker 1: probably going to be way worse for Democrats and their 908 01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:40,320 Speaker 1: allies in the New York media than it ever would 909 01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:43,880 Speaker 1: have been for Trump. There is and never has been 910 01:01:44,280 --> 01:01:50,440 Speaker 1: any evidence whatsoever that Trump ever did anything illegal or 911 01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:55,320 Speaker 1: untoward with Jeffrey Epstein or anyone of the underage girls 912 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:59,960 Speaker 1: that Epstein was trafficking for his own personal perverted Section 913 01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:06,840 Speaker 1: viual desires. There's none, and this defies logical sense. Democrats 914 01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:13,000 Speaker 1: leaked Trump's tax returns, his personal tax returns, hoping that 915 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:15,760 Speaker 1: they would be able to find some sort of tax fraud. 916 01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:21,080 Speaker 1: Of course, there was none. You're telling me if Donald Trump, 917 01:02:21,160 --> 01:02:25,320 Speaker 1: if there was some smoking gun tying Donald Trump to 918 01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:32,600 Speaker 1: underage sex with a minor prostitute with Jeffrey Epstein, that 919 01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:39,000 Speaker 1: they wouldn't have used that. They made up crimes regarding 920 01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:43,480 Speaker 1: Trump's taking of classified documents at Marro Law. They literally 921 01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:47,840 Speaker 1: made up crimes. They pretended that the Presidential Records Act 922 01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:53,760 Speaker 1: was a criminal statute. They made up crimes related to 923 01:02:54,080 --> 01:03:00,840 Speaker 1: January sixth, They criminalized behavior, conduct and that Trump was 924 01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:04,560 Speaker 1: doing that were part of his role as president of 925 01:03:04,600 --> 01:03:08,160 Speaker 1: the United States. He absolutely is authorized as head of 926 01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:11,640 Speaker 1: the Justice Department to say, hey, it certainly looks like 927 01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:14,360 Speaker 1: this presidential election might not have been on the up 928 01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:17,640 Speaker 1: and up. We should investigate that Democrats pretended that was 929 01:03:17,680 --> 01:03:20,680 Speaker 1: a crime. If they had a smoking gun tying Trump 930 01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:24,600 Speaker 1: to sex with underage girls, you think they would have 931 01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:27,360 Speaker 1: made up crimes or would they have gone with the 932 01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:31,040 Speaker 1: Trump had sex with underage girls in either twenty twenty 933 01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:33,560 Speaker 1: or twenty twenty four. We'll be right back after this. 934 01:03:34,120 --> 01:03:35,920 Speaker 1: Coming up in the five o'clock hour here on the 935 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:39,880 Speaker 1: Dan o'donald's show, we will check in with President Trump 936 01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:43,960 Speaker 1: at the McDonald's summit as he talks about affordability, what 937 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:49,200 Speaker 1: I consider to be the biggest issue facing this country, 938 01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:53,200 Speaker 1: and one of the best illustrations of that is actually 939 01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:59,120 Speaker 1: the price at McDonald's. McDonald's doesn't just have the greatest 940 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:03,080 Speaker 1: sandwich known to man. I'm, of course talking about the 941 01:04:03,200 --> 01:04:07,880 Speaker 1: McRib There will be no argument on this. You can 942 01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:11,920 Speaker 1: have your Jimmy John's, your cousins, your Big Max, your whoppers. 943 01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:16,720 Speaker 1: McRib is the greatest fast food sandwich in the history 944 01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:19,920 Speaker 1: of fast food sandwiches. It's back for a limited time 945 01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:23,120 Speaker 1: at participating McDonald's. No, that wasn't an ad, although it 946 01:04:23,240 --> 01:04:26,880 Speaker 1: sounds like, and I just I love the McRib My 947 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:31,400 Speaker 1: wife is continually disgusted with me because this is like 948 01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:33,600 Speaker 1: the one time every year I actually do go to 949 01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:34,840 Speaker 1: McDonald's all the time. 950 01:04:34,960 --> 01:04:35,320 Speaker 5: I don't know. 951 01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:37,200 Speaker 1: It was my favorite sandwich when I was a kid, 952 01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:39,680 Speaker 1: and I believe it was was that the great Warren 953 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:44,040 Speaker 1: Buffett who said someone famously said of McDonald's, you don't 954 01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:47,280 Speaker 1: go to McDonald's for the greatest burger you've ever had. 955 01:04:47,960 --> 01:04:51,480 Speaker 1: You go to McDonald's for this same burger you've always had. 956 01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:54,440 Speaker 1: It's all about the consistency. It's all about you know 957 01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:58,080 Speaker 1: exactly what you're gonna get. But McDonald's was always a 958 01:04:58,160 --> 01:05:02,360 Speaker 1: way for lower income PU people to get food that's tasty. No, 959 01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:05,680 Speaker 1: it's not particularly healthy, although if you have salads and 960 01:05:05,720 --> 01:05:09,680 Speaker 1: stuff you can eat healthy at McDonald's that supersize me. 961 01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:12,920 Speaker 1: Guy was completely full of garbage. Although it's you know, 962 01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:17,160 Speaker 1: it's not particularly it's fast food. Like, if you don't 963 01:05:17,160 --> 01:05:20,360 Speaker 1: know fast food is bad for you, you weren't paying 964 01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:26,360 Speaker 1: attention to the food pyramids in fourth grade. But I 965 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:29,320 Speaker 1: was actually shocked because, as I said, I only go 966 01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:33,680 Speaker 1: back to McDonald's when the McRib is back. I didn't 967 01:05:33,760 --> 01:05:37,520 Speaker 1: realize how high fast food prices had really gotten, or 968 01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:41,800 Speaker 1: I wasn't really paying attention. You know, I'm blessed to 969 01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:45,080 Speaker 1: you know, not really have to think about, Okay, how 970 01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:48,560 Speaker 1: much are we really spending on each meal? And you 971 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:52,320 Speaker 1: know that's a blessing. But McDonald's is very popular with 972 01:05:52,440 --> 01:05:55,440 Speaker 1: people who have kids but don't make a ton of money, 973 01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:59,480 Speaker 1: precisely because it's so affordable if it's not affordable anymore, 974 01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:03,000 Speaker 1: and it isn't. I mean, my meal was eighteen nineteen 975 01:06:03,080 --> 01:06:06,479 Speaker 1: twenty dollars. We went yesterday, my daughter and I after 976 01:06:06,520 --> 01:06:09,800 Speaker 1: a soccer game. The two of us had like two 977 01:06:09,920 --> 01:06:15,520 Speaker 1: value meals, which are sort of ironically named now is 978 01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:18,720 Speaker 1: They're like about twelve dollars a piece, and it was 979 01:06:18,760 --> 01:06:22,080 Speaker 1: like twenty five bucks for the two of us to eat. 980 01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:25,439 Speaker 1: You go to a chick I took my son and 981 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:29,120 Speaker 1: his friend before a soccer game to Chick fil A. Yes, 982 01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:31,760 Speaker 1: I am a stereotypical dad. When the kids are with me, 983 01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:36,040 Speaker 1: they know they can get fast food mom. No way, 984 01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:41,440 Speaker 1: no way, that happens typical American family. Right, this is 985 01:06:41,520 --> 01:06:47,000 Speaker 1: a very important issue, not just politically, but socially and culturally. 986 01:06:47,640 --> 01:06:53,480 Speaker 1: And yes, obviously Democrat fiscal policy, which spiked inflation year 987 01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:57,480 Speaker 1: over year to nine percent in twenty twenty two, because 988 01:06:57,520 --> 01:07:02,360 Speaker 1: of Biden's asinine stimulus, because of the choking effect his 989 01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:08,520 Speaker 1: regulatory regime had on the American energy industry, and because 990 01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:12,760 Speaker 1: of the fact that the economy was so badly mismanaged 991 01:07:13,680 --> 01:07:17,280 Speaker 1: that inflation was always the inevitable result. Well, it takes 992 01:07:17,320 --> 01:07:19,160 Speaker 1: a while for that to work its way out of 993 01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:22,240 Speaker 1: the system. And the thing about inflation is that when 994 01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:26,800 Speaker 1: the rate of price increases goes down, that doesn't mean 995 01:07:26,840 --> 01:07:32,640 Speaker 1: that prices themselves go down. The overwhelming majority of the 996 01:07:32,680 --> 01:07:35,960 Speaker 1: price increases that we are paying right now happened over 997 01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:40,200 Speaker 1: the last four years of Joe Biden. Inflation is now 998 01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:43,240 Speaker 1: down to relatively normal levels, in that two to three 999 01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:47,560 Speaker 1: percent range. But because it's spiked so high and for 1000 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:50,320 Speaker 1: so long, Remember they kept trying to tell us it's transitory, 1001 01:07:50,320 --> 01:07:54,960 Speaker 1: it's transitory. Of course it wasn't. That's the big reason 1002 01:07:55,040 --> 01:08:00,280 Speaker 1: that we are paying so much for everything now. So 1003 01:08:00,320 --> 01:08:02,560 Speaker 1: President Trump is going to talk about his plan to 1004 01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:04,560 Speaker 1: get prices down. We are going to dip in and 1005 01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:07,800 Speaker 1: out of that. I'm going to offer my commentary throughout 1006 01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:14,280 Speaker 1: the hour. Right now, though, absolute bombshell reporting by none 1007 01:08:14,320 --> 01:08:18,360 Speaker 1: other than Tucker Carlson, the former Fox News host is 1008 01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:23,200 Speaker 1: very popular in the podcast and social media space. He 1009 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:28,320 Speaker 1: reported exclusively via a whistleblower that, contrary to what the 1010 01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:31,639 Speaker 1: FBI was saying for the more than one year since 1011 01:08:31,920 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 1: Thomas N. Crooks tried and very nearly succeeded in assassinating 1012 01:08:37,840 --> 01:08:41,680 Speaker 1: candidate Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, that he left no 1013 01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:46,160 Speaker 1: digital footprint whatsoever. This always seemed odd. This was a 1014 01:08:46,240 --> 01:08:49,320 Speaker 1: twenty year old guy who wasn't on any form of 1015 01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:54,080 Speaker 1: social media. He wasn't online at all. Nobody knew him, 1016 01:08:54,120 --> 01:08:59,479 Speaker 1: nobody knew his political beliefs. Turns out they did this 1017 01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:04,400 Speaker 1: in from was almost certainly known to law enforcement, but 1018 01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:09,840 Speaker 1: intentionally kept from the public because Crooks was a radicalized 1019 01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:14,160 Speaker 1: leftist who wouldn't you know it? Long about COVID time 1020 01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:18,000 Speaker 1: in March of twenty twenty had a dramatic shift from 1021 01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:22,439 Speaker 1: being a rabid Trump supporter to a Trump critic who 1022 01:09:22,600 --> 01:09:26,560 Speaker 1: hated Trump, was increasingly radicalized to try to want to 1023 01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:29,599 Speaker 1: kill Trump, and wouldn't you know it was also a 1024 01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:36,640 Speaker 1: furry who apparently had a weird fetish for anthropomorphic humans 1025 01:09:36,720 --> 01:09:42,280 Speaker 1: with animal bodies and told people that he was gender fluid. 1026 01:09:43,240 --> 01:09:47,040 Speaker 1: As Carlson reports in this two minute clip from his show, 1027 01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:51,639 Speaker 1: it was right around the beginning of twenty twenty when 1028 01:09:51,880 --> 01:09:54,320 Speaker 1: Crooks got himself radicalized. 1029 01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:58,760 Speaker 8: In early twenty twenty, Crook seemed to change radically. On 1030 01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:01,439 Speaker 8: January twenty third, Eve that year, he referred to quote 1031 01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:05,160 Speaker 8: Trump's stupidity they began to mock the concept of the 1032 01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:08,240 Speaker 8: deep state. He suggested it was a code word used 1033 01:10:08,240 --> 01:10:11,240 Speaker 8: by Trump's supporters for quote anyone who disagrees with the 1034 01:10:11,320 --> 01:10:14,800 Speaker 8: right wing. Suddenly he sounded like an MSNBC commentator. In 1035 01:10:14,840 --> 01:10:17,640 Speaker 8: February of twenty twenty, he called out Trump's supporters as 1036 01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:20,720 Speaker 8: quote too brainwashed to realize how dumb you are. I 1037 01:10:20,760 --> 01:10:23,560 Speaker 8: mean literally, you guys sound like a cult at times. 1038 01:10:23,680 --> 01:10:27,240 Speaker 8: That same day, he called Trump and his supporter's quote racist. 1039 01:10:27,439 --> 01:10:29,080 Speaker 4: It was an amazing transformation. 1040 01:10:29,360 --> 01:10:32,400 Speaker 8: That April, during the peak phase of the coronavirus lockdowns, 1041 01:10:32,640 --> 01:10:35,800 Speaker 8: Crooks wrote, quote, it seems that you people don't understand 1042 01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:40,040 Speaker 8: that sometimes public safety comes before your personal rights. Are 1043 01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:42,559 Speaker 8: you not willing to quarantine one member of your family 1044 01:10:42,640 --> 01:10:45,080 Speaker 8: to save the rest? If so, you are not a 1045 01:10:45,120 --> 01:10:49,000 Speaker 8: patriot and you aren't protecting anything. Around this time, the 1046 01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:52,759 Speaker 8: new left wing version of Thomas Crooks became very critical 1047 01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:53,799 Speaker 8: of conservative media. 1048 01:10:53,840 --> 01:10:56,520 Speaker 4: He said at one point, quote going to a Chinese. 1049 01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:58,639 Speaker 8: New Year's party in America isn't putting you at risk 1050 01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:02,840 Speaker 8: for coronavirus. Believe it or not, viruses don't spread through race. 1051 01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:06,519 Speaker 8: Like Tucker Carlson probably told you that May. As state 1052 01:11:06,520 --> 01:11:09,960 Speaker 8: officials across the country overhauled election systems to promote mail 1053 01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:14,000 Speaker 8: in voting, Crooks attacked Republican concerns about voter fraud is 1054 01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:17,960 Speaker 8: quote ignorant. Four months later, in August twenty twenty, is 1055 01:11:18,040 --> 01:11:21,839 Speaker 8: Tony shifted even further to the left. He said, quote, 1056 01:11:22,240 --> 01:11:25,360 Speaker 8: I believe the outcome will be irrelevant. In response to 1057 01:11:25,400 --> 01:11:28,559 Speaker 8: the same video, Thomas Crooks issued what sounds a lot 1058 01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:32,920 Speaker 8: like a digital manifesto. Quote, In my opinion, the only 1059 01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:36,160 Speaker 8: way to fight the government is with terrorism style attacks. 1060 01:11:36,680 --> 01:11:39,160 Speaker 8: Sneak a bomb into an essential building and set it 1061 01:11:39,200 --> 01:11:42,639 Speaker 8: off before anyone sees you. Track down any important people 1062 01:11:42,680 --> 01:11:44,439 Speaker 8: or politicians, military leaders, etc. 1063 01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:46,640 Speaker 4: And try to assassinate them. 1064 01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:49,680 Speaker 8: Any sort of head to head fight is suicide, and 1065 01:11:49,800 --> 01:11:54,799 Speaker 8: even ambush or surprise attacks likely aren't going to end well. 1066 01:11:55,000 --> 01:12:00,680 Speaker 1: At that point he went dark. Notably, he started interacting 1067 01:12:00,920 --> 01:12:05,320 Speaker 1: with someone who went by the handle Willy Tepis, who 1068 01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:12,280 Speaker 1: has some potential connection with the Norwegian far left terror 1069 01:12:12,439 --> 01:12:16,839 Speaker 1: organization that is actually designated as an international terror operation 1070 01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:22,320 Speaker 1: by the American government, and that Willi Tepis account appeared 1071 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:26,679 Speaker 1: to be provoking Crooks into actually acting on his violent 1072 01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:31,720 Speaker 1: manifestos and fantasies, so that was reported by Tucker Carlson 1073 01:12:31,920 --> 01:12:35,559 Speaker 1: at the tail end of last week. Today, brand new 1074 01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:39,360 Speaker 1: reporting by Miranda Divine at The New York Post said 1075 01:12:39,360 --> 01:12:44,240 Speaker 1: that Crooks used they them pronouns on at least two 1076 01:12:44,560 --> 01:12:51,439 Speaker 1: deviant Art accounts. Epic Microwave and the Epic Microwave were 1077 01:12:51,520 --> 01:12:56,120 Speaker 1: his two accounts on this site where people can post art. 1078 01:12:56,600 --> 01:12:59,640 Speaker 1: It is, as you could imagine, since it's called deviant art, 1079 01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:05,360 Speaker 1: often used for pornography. The profiles included an obsession with 1080 01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:12,479 Speaker 1: anthropomorphic furry characters, cartoonish hybrids of animals and humans, often 1081 01:13:12,600 --> 01:13:18,720 Speaker 1: in scantily clad muscular depictions blending male and female traits. 1082 01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:26,200 Speaker 1: In other words, he was dabbling in transgenderism and becoming 1083 01:13:26,280 --> 01:13:34,480 Speaker 1: deeply obsessed with very sexually deviant pornography. Does this sound familiar. 1084 01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:37,960 Speaker 1: We'll dive into that plus name the unsung hero of 1085 01:13:38,080 --> 01:13:40,080 Speaker 1: the day coming up in just a couple of minutes 1086 01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:43,080 Speaker 1: when The Dan o'donald Show returns. Welcome back to the 1087 01:13:43,160 --> 01:13:46,080 Speaker 1: Dan o'donald Show. It is time now to name the 1088 01:13:46,439 --> 01:13:57,479 Speaker 1: unsung hero of the day. Today's unsung heroes of the 1089 01:13:57,560 --> 01:14:02,520 Speaker 1: day are the anonymous leakkers who provided to Tucker Carlson 1090 01:14:02,640 --> 01:14:09,120 Speaker 1: and Miranda Divine the digital footprint of Thomas N. Crooks, 1091 01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:13,400 Speaker 1: President Trump's would be assassin in Butler, Pennsylvania. That proved 1092 01:14:13,400 --> 01:14:18,200 Speaker 1: that Crooks was a radicalized leftist who was exploring his 1093 01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:23,240 Speaker 1: own gender fluidity and used they them pronouns more than 1094 01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:27,720 Speaker 1: a year after the attempted assassination, which very nearly succeeded. 1095 01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:31,040 Speaker 1: Had Trump not turned his head to look at that chart, 1096 01:14:31,080 --> 01:14:35,040 Speaker 1: which by the way, was created by Wisconsin's own Ron Johnson, 1097 01:14:35,439 --> 01:14:37,439 Speaker 1: he would be dead. He would not be president. He 1098 01:14:37,439 --> 01:14:38,960 Speaker 1: would have been shot in the head, and he would 1099 01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:42,280 Speaker 1: have been killed instantly. In this country would be in 1100 01:14:42,520 --> 01:14:48,559 Speaker 1: absolute chaos. Those two anonymous leakers, though, have filled in 1101 01:14:48,640 --> 01:14:53,880 Speaker 1: the gaps that the Biden Justice Department refused to fill in, 1102 01:14:54,520 --> 01:14:59,280 Speaker 1: likely because they didn't like where the investigation went. That 1103 01:14:59,320 --> 01:15:04,679 Speaker 1: this was another radical leftist terror attack or attempted terror attack, 1104 01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:08,839 Speaker 1: and it was yet another act of extreme violence. Remember 1105 01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:11,400 Speaker 1: there was an innocent man who was shot and killed 1106 01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:15,479 Speaker 1: in that attempted assassination, Corey Comparatory. It was another act 1107 01:15:15,520 --> 01:15:20,280 Speaker 1: of extreme violence with a political motive, committed by someone 1108 01:15:20,720 --> 01:15:25,519 Speaker 1: in the transgender community. Those leakers, you're unsung heroes of 1109 01:15:25,600 --> 01:15:30,240 Speaker 1: the day. That is another aspect of this new revelation 1110 01:15:31,400 --> 01:15:37,040 Speaker 1: yet again, how many high profile mass shootings or political 1111 01:15:37,439 --> 01:15:42,560 Speaker 1: assassinations or attempted assassinations are now linked to the transgender community. 1112 01:15:43,520 --> 01:15:48,479 Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk's assassin was motivated in large part because he 1113 01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:57,400 Speaker 1: was living with a gay transgender man, Lance Twigs. That 1114 01:15:57,600 --> 01:16:03,160 Speaker 1: was part of his motivation. The school shooting just a 1115 01:16:03,160 --> 01:16:07,880 Speaker 1: couple of days before Charlie's assassination in Minneapolis was carried 1116 01:16:07,920 --> 01:16:14,400 Speaker 1: out by a transgender shooter. The school shooting attack in 1117 01:16:14,560 --> 01:16:19,200 Speaker 1: Tennessee a couple of years before that also committed by 1118 01:16:19,320 --> 01:16:23,960 Speaker 1: a transgender shooter who went by the name Audrey Hale. 1119 01:16:24,720 --> 01:16:29,640 Speaker 1: I actually reported exclusively that the school shooter in Madison 1120 01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:33,960 Speaker 1: at Abundant Life Christian was gender fluid or at the 1121 01:16:34,120 --> 01:16:38,439 Speaker 1: very least questioning her gender identity. I actually have the 1122 01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:44,040 Speaker 1: report the psychiatrist that she was seeing was seeing her 1123 01:16:44,160 --> 01:16:48,920 Speaker 1: for gender identity issues. The list goes on and on 1124 01:16:49,720 --> 01:16:53,320 Speaker 1: and on. We talk affordability and dip into President Trump's 1125 01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:57,400 Speaker 1: press conference at the McDonald's summit next final hour of 1126 01:16:57,760 --> 01:17:00,800 Speaker 1: the edition of the Dan o'donald show Boy. We have 1127 01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:05,080 Speaker 1: covered a lot of ground already, ladies and gentlemen. I 1128 01:17:05,120 --> 01:17:08,080 Speaker 1: know I said on Friday for those listening that we 1129 01:17:08,080 --> 01:17:11,480 Speaker 1: were going to try to get to a complete investigation 1130 01:17:11,600 --> 01:17:16,040 Speaker 1: and discussion about why tearing down I seven ninety four 1131 01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:19,880 Speaker 1: that goes through the heart of downtown Milwaukee would be 1132 01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:23,920 Speaker 1: a phenomenally bad idea. I said, we were going to 1133 01:17:23,920 --> 01:17:26,600 Speaker 1: get to that today. We're gonna have to push that 1134 01:17:26,720 --> 01:17:30,439 Speaker 1: to tomorrow, ladies and gentlemen, because President Trump is scheduled 1135 01:17:30,479 --> 01:17:34,920 Speaker 1: to speak any minute now at the Impact Summit it 1136 01:17:35,040 --> 01:17:39,719 Speaker 1: is being informally called the McDonald's Summit. As the former 1137 01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:44,559 Speaker 1: McDonald's employee who in just a matter of weeks got 1138 01:17:44,680 --> 01:17:49,760 Speaker 1: himself from the fry counter to the presidency of the 1139 01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:52,639 Speaker 1: United States. It's truly only in America's story. I mean, 1140 01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:59,559 Speaker 1: this guy was working as a drive through order taker. 1141 01:18:00,240 --> 01:18:03,560 Speaker 1: He was working as a garbage man in Green Bay, Wisconsin. 1142 01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:06,719 Speaker 1: A couple of weeks later, he's elected president. Only in America, 1143 01:18:07,040 --> 01:18:10,280 Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen. It is being called the mcdonald' summit 1144 01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:15,360 Speaker 1: because President Trump is going to talk about affordability, and 1145 01:18:15,439 --> 01:18:20,880 Speaker 1: the fast food or big Mac index is sort of 1146 01:18:20,920 --> 01:18:26,639 Speaker 1: a pretty good shorthand for affordability. It's the old basket 1147 01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:30,280 Speaker 1: of goods index. How much does a given basket of 1148 01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:36,559 Speaker 1: goods cost? It's a way to sort of match. It's 1149 01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:41,800 Speaker 1: a way to evaluate and compare affordability across countries, across 1150 01:18:42,080 --> 01:18:45,120 Speaker 1: time periods. So now we have what's known as the 1151 01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:48,559 Speaker 1: big Mac index. How much does a big mac cost? 1152 01:18:48,760 --> 01:18:52,479 Speaker 1: In France? Do you know what they call a big 1153 01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:56,840 Speaker 1: mac in France? Les big mac? You know what they 1154 01:18:56,840 --> 01:19:02,400 Speaker 1: call a quarter pounder with cheese, roy with cheese. You 1155 01:19:02,439 --> 01:19:06,000 Speaker 1: know why because the metric system, Yeah, it's all messed 1156 01:19:06,080 --> 01:19:09,000 Speaker 1: up over there. What do they call a whopper? I 1157 01:19:09,040 --> 01:19:11,880 Speaker 1: don't know. I didn't go into Burger King pulp fiction. 1158 01:19:12,120 --> 01:19:14,000 Speaker 1: Very famous back and forth at the beginning of the 1159 01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:17,599 Speaker 1: movie between John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson's characters. If 1160 01:19:17,600 --> 01:19:20,040 Speaker 1: you haven't seen the movie, please do. It's one of 1161 01:19:20,040 --> 01:19:25,160 Speaker 1: the best ever made. The Big Mac Index is a 1162 01:19:25,280 --> 01:19:29,280 Speaker 1: leading indicator because it shows what the value of a 1163 01:19:29,400 --> 01:19:34,000 Speaker 1: dollar really is over the last five years because of 1164 01:19:34,160 --> 01:19:41,840 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's immediate devastating impact on inflation through his absurd 1165 01:19:42,240 --> 01:19:47,080 Speaker 1: granting of trillions of dollars in a direct stimulus to people, 1166 01:19:47,200 --> 01:19:52,280 Speaker 1: and also, and I believe, far more devastatingly to government, 1167 01:19:52,760 --> 01:19:57,559 Speaker 1: the COVID stimulus. Would you believe that Milwaukee Public Schools, Remember, 1168 01:19:57,600 --> 01:20:00,759 Speaker 1: it has no idea, We have no idea how MPs 1169 01:20:00,800 --> 01:20:03,799 Speaker 1: it's been unable to account for how its spent nearly 1170 01:20:03,840 --> 01:20:08,240 Speaker 1: a billion dollars in COVID stimulus. Would you believe that 1171 01:20:08,320 --> 01:20:13,880 Speaker 1: the last COVID stimulus payment to Milwaukee Public Schools just 1172 01:20:14,040 --> 01:20:19,880 Speaker 1: came last fall? That's that's almost say it was nearly 1173 01:20:19,960 --> 01:20:25,360 Speaker 1: four years later. We're still getting COVID relief money coming 1174 01:20:25,360 --> 01:20:29,280 Speaker 1: into the state. We have so much COVID relief money 1175 01:20:29,520 --> 01:20:33,080 Speaker 1: that Governor Evers has been sitting on near as anybody 1176 01:20:33,120 --> 01:20:38,000 Speaker 1: can tell a three hundred million dollars slush fund that 1177 01:20:38,040 --> 01:20:40,719 Speaker 1: you might recall. We hear at the Dan O'Donnell show 1178 01:20:41,280 --> 01:20:44,759 Speaker 1: were explaining over and over again during the federal government 1179 01:20:44,800 --> 01:20:47,160 Speaker 1: shutdown that he could have been using he could have 1180 01:20:47,280 --> 01:20:52,160 Speaker 1: freed up all of that money instantly to pay for 1181 01:20:52,240 --> 01:20:57,719 Speaker 1: people whose SNAP benefits had expired, but he didn't. When 1182 01:20:58,000 --> 01:21:02,360 Speaker 1: President Biden and Democrats controlled both houses of Congress in 1183 01:21:02,479 --> 01:21:08,320 Speaker 1: early twenty twenty one, kept on printing money at just 1184 01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:15,880 Speaker 1: unsustainable rates, and they actually were simultaneously extending benefits for 1185 01:21:15,960 --> 01:21:19,720 Speaker 1: people who were out of work and refuse to go 1186 01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:23,280 Speaker 1: back to work, refuse to in other words, rejoin and 1187 01:21:23,520 --> 01:21:29,400 Speaker 1: jumpstart the supply chain, artificially making it more difficult for 1188 01:21:29,520 --> 01:21:33,760 Speaker 1: people to get the goods and the services that they 1189 01:21:33,800 --> 01:21:39,240 Speaker 1: could spend their newfound COVID stimulus checks on. This created 1190 01:21:39,240 --> 01:21:43,479 Speaker 1: a supply crunch at the exact moment when the supply 1191 01:21:43,760 --> 01:21:47,800 Speaker 1: chain should have been opened and unleashed to meet the 1192 01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:50,640 Speaker 1: pent up demand for people to finally go out and 1193 01:21:51,240 --> 01:21:53,800 Speaker 1: leave the house and get back to travel, get back 1194 01:21:53,840 --> 01:21:56,120 Speaker 1: to going out to restaurants, get back to doing all 1195 01:21:56,160 --> 01:21:59,160 Speaker 1: of the things that they didn't do for nearly a 1196 01:21:59,280 --> 01:22:03,280 Speaker 1: year because they were terrified of COVID nineteen. They also 1197 01:22:03,520 --> 01:22:07,160 Speaker 1: had a ton of money to go out and buy things, 1198 01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:11,639 Speaker 1: but they couldn't. The best illustration of just how bad 1199 01:22:11,720 --> 01:22:18,440 Speaker 1: the supply chain was was in the PlayStation five. PlayStation, 1200 01:22:18,800 --> 01:22:21,759 Speaker 1: for the first time in years, released a new version 1201 01:22:21,960 --> 01:22:26,000 Speaker 1: of its home gaming console. The PlayStation four was a 1202 01:22:26,120 --> 01:22:29,639 Speaker 1: dominant console for years and years and years. Well in 1203 01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:36,000 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, PlayStation released the PlayStation five. It should 1204 01:22:36,080 --> 01:22:42,440 Speaker 1: have been everywhere, but because of COVID supply chain issues, 1205 01:22:42,600 --> 01:22:47,960 Speaker 1: it wasn't. There were massive shortages. It was impossible to 1206 01:22:48,120 --> 01:22:52,160 Speaker 1: find a PlayStation five for Christmas. Do you know how? 1207 01:22:52,200 --> 01:22:55,040 Speaker 1: I remember this so vividly Because my kids were a 1208 01:22:55,080 --> 01:22:59,679 Speaker 1: lot younger, I was trying to get them a PlayStation five. 1209 01:23:00,080 --> 01:23:03,360 Speaker 1: I happened to get lucky and get one. When they 1210 01:23:03,439 --> 01:23:07,920 Speaker 1: came into Best Buy for retail, people were paying two 1211 01:23:07,960 --> 01:23:13,479 Speaker 1: three times retail price for PlayStation five because there was 1212 01:23:13,520 --> 01:23:17,040 Speaker 1: such a massive shortage of them. The reason for this 1213 01:23:17,360 --> 01:23:22,440 Speaker 1: was economic policy by the Biden administration, combined with global 1214 01:23:23,000 --> 01:23:28,719 Speaker 1: supply chain issues exacerbated by other governments, keeping things shut 1215 01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:32,160 Speaker 1: down far longer than they should have. But here in 1216 01:23:32,200 --> 01:23:36,360 Speaker 1: the United States, keeping people at home with enhanced unemployment 1217 01:23:36,400 --> 01:23:39,200 Speaker 1: benefits at the precise time when we should have been 1218 01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:45,519 Speaker 1: sending them back to work. In short, Biden did everything wrong. 1219 01:23:45,840 --> 01:23:52,400 Speaker 1: Democrats did everything wrong to prop up the manufacturing and 1220 01:23:52,600 --> 01:23:56,920 Speaker 1: service sectors in this country, to get people back to work, 1221 01:23:57,080 --> 01:24:00,760 Speaker 1: and to get people to be able to have an 1222 01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:05,439 Speaker 1: equilibrium between supply and demand with a massive influx of 1223 01:24:05,600 --> 01:24:10,160 Speaker 1: money into the system. Milton Friedman constantly talked about the 1224 01:24:10,600 --> 01:24:15,920 Speaker 1: helicopter drop. If a fictional helicopter were to fly over 1225 01:24:16,000 --> 01:24:19,960 Speaker 1: a town square and drop one hundred dollars bills everywhere, 1226 01:24:20,880 --> 01:24:23,960 Speaker 1: prices would go up because all of a sudden, people 1227 01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:28,599 Speaker 1: who collected that money would have capital that they didn't have. 1228 01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:32,599 Speaker 1: But the demand, while it was increasing for the products 1229 01:24:32,600 --> 01:24:35,000 Speaker 1: they would go out and spend the money. Supply stayed 1230 01:24:35,040 --> 01:24:40,280 Speaker 1: the exact same. There was therefore competition for the exact 1231 01:24:40,320 --> 01:24:44,680 Speaker 1: same number of goods the exact same number of services 1232 01:24:45,200 --> 01:24:48,280 Speaker 1: by people who could spend more on them. So what 1233 01:24:48,360 --> 01:24:53,560 Speaker 1: would happen. The people who had those scarcer and scarcer 1234 01:24:53,640 --> 01:24:56,719 Speaker 1: goods would be able to hold out for the highest bidder. 1235 01:24:56,760 --> 01:24:59,880 Speaker 1: Bidding wars would erupt, and therefore the prices would go 1236 01:25:00,320 --> 01:25:03,640 Speaker 1: that's exactly what happened in the first few months of 1237 01:25:03,680 --> 01:25:06,560 Speaker 1: the Biden administration. Now, add to that, one of the 1238 01:25:06,560 --> 01:25:10,040 Speaker 1: big things that was also leading to prices going up 1239 01:25:10,760 --> 01:25:13,280 Speaker 1: was the fact that Biden, on his very first day 1240 01:25:13,280 --> 01:25:18,439 Speaker 1: in office, declared war on domestic energy production, shutting down 1241 01:25:18,479 --> 01:25:21,759 Speaker 1: the Keystone XL pipeline that generated all of the headlines. 1242 01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:25,160 Speaker 1: Keystone XL was not actually operational, but it was symbolic 1243 01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:28,439 Speaker 1: of what the Biden administration was actually doing, and that 1244 01:25:28,640 --> 01:25:32,559 Speaker 1: was making it impossible to get new leases to drill 1245 01:25:32,760 --> 01:25:37,960 Speaker 1: pretty much anywhere in America. We did not want under 1246 01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:42,320 Speaker 1: the Biden regime, new drilling, new exploration, new natural gas, 1247 01:25:42,439 --> 01:25:48,320 Speaker 1: knew anything. We became increasingly dependent on less stable OPEC 1248 01:25:48,479 --> 01:25:52,080 Speaker 1: nations and yes, Russia right up until the moment that 1249 01:25:52,200 --> 01:25:57,320 Speaker 1: they invaded Ukraine for our global supply of energy. America, 1250 01:25:57,439 --> 01:26:02,160 Speaker 1: about the most stable nation on Earth, which just happens 1251 01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:06,519 Speaker 1: to have the single largest supply of oil and national 1252 01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:09,559 Speaker 1: gas on planet Earth, at least that we're aware of, 1253 01:26:11,439 --> 01:26:13,759 Speaker 1: was no longer a player in the global energy market, 1254 01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:17,360 Speaker 1: so countries were forced to go elsewhere. This drove up 1255 01:26:17,400 --> 01:26:24,120 Speaker 1: the cost of gasoline exponentially, especially diesel. What are trucks 1256 01:26:24,240 --> 01:26:29,480 Speaker 1: powered by diesel fuel. When it costs more to transport 1257 01:26:29,520 --> 01:26:33,200 Speaker 1: goods from point A to point B, the cost of 1258 01:26:33,240 --> 01:26:40,559 Speaker 1: those goods goes up. At the same time, people who 1259 01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:48,520 Speaker 1: were getting more money suddenly no longer had any availability 1260 01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:52,000 Speaker 1: of housing people wanted to They were stuck in their 1261 01:26:52,040 --> 01:26:55,080 Speaker 1: houses for months at a time oftentimes, and they said, 1262 01:26:55,080 --> 01:26:56,960 Speaker 1: you know what, we want a bigger house. We want 1263 01:26:57,000 --> 01:27:03,679 Speaker 1: to upgrade our housing. No supply. Nobody wanted to sell 1264 01:27:03,720 --> 01:27:07,639 Speaker 1: a house during COVID. And oh, by the way, at 1265 01:27:07,680 --> 01:27:10,760 Speaker 1: the exact same time, all of this was going on 1266 01:27:11,479 --> 01:27:16,240 Speaker 1: the Biden administration from the very outset. We're talking February 1267 01:27:16,280 --> 01:27:20,920 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty one. Within weeks of taking office, Biden's 1268 01:27:20,960 --> 01:27:24,880 Speaker 1: team opened up the borders. There was a massive stampede, 1269 01:27:25,439 --> 01:27:30,680 Speaker 1: caravan after caravan, people coming from across the world. This 1270 01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:33,759 Speaker 1: created a massive housing crunch because all of a sudden, 1271 01:27:33,760 --> 01:27:37,719 Speaker 1: there were millions of new people competing for this same 1272 01:27:38,000 --> 01:27:44,600 Speaker 1: housing that Americans were competing for. Once again, there was 1273 01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:49,839 Speaker 1: a massive influx of demand, an artificial influx of demand 1274 01:27:49,880 --> 01:27:54,639 Speaker 1: from people who in normal circumstances would never ever ever 1275 01:27:54,760 --> 01:27:57,559 Speaker 1: have access to the American housing market because they would 1276 01:27:57,560 --> 01:28:01,280 Speaker 1: not be allowed in the country. They were, and at 1277 01:28:01,320 --> 01:28:05,360 Speaker 1: the same time housing starts because of COVID and because 1278 01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:09,840 Speaker 1: of the massive increase in the cost of raw materials 1279 01:28:10,439 --> 01:28:14,880 Speaker 1: and the scarcity of workers to physically build the houses, well, 1280 01:28:14,920 --> 01:28:19,080 Speaker 1: the costs was going up. Houses weren't getting built, apartment 1281 01:28:19,080 --> 01:28:23,240 Speaker 1: buildings weren't getting built. All of these illegals, all of 1282 01:28:23,280 --> 01:28:28,000 Speaker 1: these phony refugee seekers, all of these people that Biden 1283 01:28:28,120 --> 01:28:31,439 Speaker 1: was letting into the country and then parolling, in other words, 1284 01:28:31,520 --> 01:28:36,160 Speaker 1: refusing to enforce when their visas expire or refusing to 1285 01:28:36,320 --> 01:28:40,360 Speaker 1: deport people who would otherwise be deportable. They were just 1286 01:28:40,439 --> 01:28:43,960 Speaker 1: allowed to live in the interior of the country, essentially 1287 01:28:44,040 --> 01:28:50,520 Speaker 1: in perpetuity. They also needed housing. They were getting subsidies 1288 01:28:50,560 --> 01:28:54,760 Speaker 1: for pretty much everything from left wing states as well 1289 01:28:54,800 --> 01:28:59,560 Speaker 1: as the federal government, so they were also getting assistants 1290 01:28:59,680 --> 01:29:04,920 Speaker 1: for things like that. They were competing with American citizens, 1291 01:29:05,040 --> 01:29:09,560 Speaker 1: especially at the bottom end of the income spectrum, competing 1292 01:29:09,600 --> 01:29:14,360 Speaker 1: for the most affordable apartments and houses that were often 1293 01:29:14,479 --> 01:29:17,680 Speaker 1: turned from houses that were available to purchase, they were 1294 01:29:17,760 --> 01:29:22,320 Speaker 1: snapped up by big business and they were turned into 1295 01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:28,760 Speaker 1: rental units. All of this folks made American life all 1296 01:29:28,800 --> 01:29:33,360 Speaker 1: but unaffordable for Americans. When we come back, we're going 1297 01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:36,160 Speaker 1: to take a very quick break because we do still 1298 01:29:36,200 --> 01:29:39,040 Speaker 1: have to make money on these here radio stations that 1299 01:29:39,120 --> 01:29:42,000 Speaker 1: I host on. We will get to President Trump speaking 1300 01:29:42,200 --> 01:29:46,519 Speaker 1: at the McDonald's Impact Summit coming up in just a second. 1301 01:29:47,160 --> 01:29:51,960 Speaker 1: Former McDonald's employee Donald Trump, who now is President of 1302 01:29:52,080 --> 01:29:58,040 Speaker 1: the United States, is speaking at the McDonald's Impact Summit 1303 01:29:59,000 --> 01:30:03,320 Speaker 1: in Washington, d C. Let's go live now to President 1304 01:30:03,360 --> 01:30:06,519 Speaker 1: Trump here on the Dan O'donnald show. Things. 1305 01:30:06,560 --> 01:30:10,680 Speaker 6: One of your groups that you admire, I admire Walmart 1306 01:30:10,760 --> 01:30:13,960 Speaker 6: came up last week and they announced that Thanksgiving this 1307 01:30:14,040 --> 01:30:17,120 Speaker 6: year is twenty five percent less. All of the accruirements 1308 01:30:17,880 --> 01:30:21,200 Speaker 6: that Thanksgiving is twenty five percent less there was last 1309 01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:27,320 Speaker 6: year under Sleepy Joe Biden. So that's a big state. 1310 01:30:27,720 --> 01:30:30,479 Speaker 6: And others have followed up by saying just about that. 1311 01:30:31,240 --> 01:30:34,320 Speaker 6: And to your leader, who when we met, I said, 1312 01:30:34,680 --> 01:30:37,040 Speaker 6: how are you doing with racist prices are coming down? 1313 01:30:37,120 --> 01:30:39,639 Speaker 6: He said, we were up forty percent because of Biden 1314 01:30:39,720 --> 01:30:43,000 Speaker 6: and inflation, and they're coming down and they're coming down rapidly. 1315 01:30:43,080 --> 01:30:47,320 Speaker 6: So I hope that all continues to go. But we're 1316 01:30:47,320 --> 01:30:49,760 Speaker 6: really doing well as the country. Most importantly, however, I 1317 01:30:49,800 --> 01:30:54,559 Speaker 6: will take big picture. We have over seventeen trillion dollars 1318 01:30:54,600 --> 01:30:58,120 Speaker 6: being invested in our country in nine months. It's now 1319 01:30:58,280 --> 01:31:01,280 Speaker 6: just about ready to crack eighteen. And by the end 1320 01:31:01,320 --> 01:31:04,839 Speaker 6: of one year we will have about twenty to twenty 1321 01:31:04,880 --> 01:31:08,880 Speaker 6: one trillion dollars invested in our country. That's more by 1322 01:31:09,040 --> 01:31:13,959 Speaker 6: ten times the highest amount ever invested in any country 1323 01:31:14,040 --> 01:31:18,599 Speaker 6: ever before. And it's largely because of tariffs and I 1324 01:31:18,600 --> 01:31:22,280 Speaker 6: think November fifth election, but it's the largest amount. As 1325 01:31:22,320 --> 01:31:24,519 Speaker 6: an example, So if we have twenty or twenty one 1326 01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:27,439 Speaker 6: in one year, twenty one trillion, think of. 1327 01:31:27,360 --> 01:31:27,880 Speaker 4: What that is. 1328 01:31:28,520 --> 01:31:32,599 Speaker 6: That's car factories, that's AI, it's everything. They're all coming 1329 01:31:32,640 --> 01:31:36,080 Speaker 6: back because of the tariffs. They're all coming back because 1330 01:31:36,120 --> 01:31:38,479 Speaker 6: they don't want to pay fifteen twenty thirty one hundred 1331 01:31:38,560 --> 01:31:42,240 Speaker 6: percent tariff. It wasn't that complicated. People are saying, you know, 1332 01:31:42,240 --> 01:31:45,599 Speaker 6: Trump was right. It really wasn't that complicated. But it's 1333 01:31:45,640 --> 01:31:48,240 Speaker 6: been amazing. As an example, if you take me at 1334 01:31:48,240 --> 01:31:51,640 Speaker 6: twenty for one year, sleepy Joe Biden, you know what, 1335 01:31:51,680 --> 01:31:55,559 Speaker 6: he was less than one for four years, and if 1336 01:31:55,600 --> 01:31:58,400 Speaker 6: they got elected, they would have been at minus ten 1337 01:31:58,520 --> 01:32:01,639 Speaker 6: because people were moving out of the country and record numbers, 1338 01:32:02,320 --> 01:32:07,559 Speaker 6: and welfare and other charges were increasing at levels that 1339 01:32:07,680 --> 01:32:10,559 Speaker 6: nobody has ever seen before, So you would have had 1340 01:32:10,640 --> 01:32:15,840 Speaker 6: double and maybe fifty percent, maybe literally more than they've 1341 01:32:15,840 --> 01:32:18,920 Speaker 6: ever seen. Welfare was going up, everything was going up. 1342 01:32:19,400 --> 01:32:22,280 Speaker 6: Government jobs were going up, real jobs were going down. 1343 01:32:22,880 --> 01:32:25,200 Speaker 6: So you would have had that catastrophe. And on top 1344 01:32:25,240 --> 01:32:28,120 Speaker 6: of it, instead of twenty trillion coming in, you would 1345 01:32:28,160 --> 01:32:32,080 Speaker 6: have had ten trillion leaving our country. In other words, 1346 01:32:32,640 --> 01:32:35,280 Speaker 6: you would have had a catastrophe. You probably would have 1347 01:32:35,320 --> 01:32:38,680 Speaker 6: had a bankrupt country. You are so damn lucky that 1348 01:32:38,720 --> 01:32:40,439 Speaker 6: I won that election. I'm telling you. 1349 01:32:44,760 --> 01:32:46,400 Speaker 1: It's actually true. 1350 01:32:46,880 --> 01:32:50,639 Speaker 6: I hope the press covers that this. You know, someday 1351 01:32:50,920 --> 01:32:53,839 Speaker 6: he got up and he rented and raved and bragged. 1352 01:32:53,840 --> 01:32:55,479 Speaker 1: I don't break I just give you the facts. 1353 01:32:55,479 --> 01:32:58,679 Speaker 6: It's true. But those in this room know the people 1354 01:32:58,720 --> 01:33:01,920 Speaker 6: of our country better than any And before the sun rises, 1355 01:33:02,600 --> 01:33:06,479 Speaker 6: you're observing hot coffee to construction workers, nurses, and police 1356 01:33:06,479 --> 01:33:07,200 Speaker 6: officers on. 1357 01:33:07,160 --> 01:33:08,000 Speaker 1: The way to the job. 1358 01:33:08,720 --> 01:33:12,160 Speaker 6: In the evening, you stand ready with the fast dinner 1359 01:33:12,200 --> 01:33:14,880 Speaker 6: and a smile for busy moms and their children as 1360 01:33:14,920 --> 01:33:19,320 Speaker 6: they race from school to soccer practice. Really is It's Americana, 1361 01:33:20,080 --> 01:33:22,760 Speaker 6: and late at night, your lights are often the only 1362 01:33:22,840 --> 01:33:26,479 Speaker 6: ones still glowing when the long haul trucker pulls up 1363 01:33:26,520 --> 01:33:30,840 Speaker 6: for a good meal and a best Coca Cola in America, 1364 01:33:30,960 --> 01:33:35,559 Speaker 6: best Coca Cola. And I bet they use real sugar 1365 01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:38,640 Speaker 6: in your Coca cola. You know they didn't in the 1366 01:33:38,760 --> 01:33:40,960 Speaker 6: United States. I said to the head of Coca Cola, 1367 01:33:41,040 --> 01:33:44,000 Speaker 6: you gotta go to sugar. They do in other countries, 1368 01:33:44,040 --> 01:33:46,200 Speaker 6: and you know what, they want to sugar And then nice, 1369 01:33:46,240 --> 01:33:47,920 Speaker 6: I said, you got to go to sugar. 1370 01:33:48,240 --> 01:33:49,160 Speaker 4: Just like I said. 1371 01:33:49,320 --> 01:33:53,280 Speaker 6: Why is the Gulf of Mexico called the Gulf of Mexico. 1372 01:33:54,320 --> 01:33:57,479 Speaker 6: I said, we're changing the name and now it's the 1373 01:33:57,520 --> 01:34:00,400 Speaker 6: Gulf of America. Has nothing to do with McDonald's. Maybe 1374 01:34:00,400 --> 01:34:04,479 Speaker 6: it does because it's very nice cycle and we have 1375 01:34:04,560 --> 01:34:07,839 Speaker 6: ninety two percent of the shoreline. They have eight percent. 1376 01:34:07,880 --> 01:34:09,960 Speaker 6: I wouldn't say I made a lot of friends in Mexico, 1377 01:34:10,000 --> 01:34:10,880 Speaker 6: but they still like me. 1378 01:34:12,439 --> 01:34:14,240 Speaker 1: It wasn't that a good change? 1379 01:34:14,439 --> 01:34:15,919 Speaker 6: Seriously, wasn't that beautiful? 1380 01:34:17,680 --> 01:34:19,080 Speaker 1: And it was done in an instant. 1381 01:34:19,080 --> 01:34:19,240 Speaker 5: You know. 1382 01:34:19,320 --> 01:34:21,679 Speaker 6: It's like normally you think a thing like that would 1383 01:34:21,680 --> 01:34:26,320 Speaker 6: take years. This took like ten minutes. I hear somebody 1384 01:34:26,520 --> 01:34:30,240 Speaker 6: good lawyers in my office. I said, would I be 1385 01:34:30,280 --> 01:34:33,320 Speaker 6: able to change the Gulf of Mexico? Is it possible? 1386 01:34:33,360 --> 01:34:35,280 Speaker 6: To the gulf? Sir, it's been that way for three 1387 01:34:35,400 --> 01:34:37,400 Speaker 6: hundred and fifty years. You know, they were here one 1388 01:34:37,479 --> 01:34:40,120 Speaker 6: hundred years before us. Who we're two fifty, there were 1389 01:34:40,160 --> 01:34:43,240 Speaker 6: three fifty. It's been called the Gulf of Mexico serve 1390 01:34:43,360 --> 01:34:44,880 Speaker 6: for three hundred and fifty years. 1391 01:34:45,400 --> 01:34:47,479 Speaker 1: I said, that's not the question. Am I able to 1392 01:34:47,560 --> 01:34:52,360 Speaker 1: change it? Yes? What do I do? Just give us 1393 01:34:52,400 --> 01:34:53,519 Speaker 1: the order, we'll do it. 1394 01:34:54,360 --> 01:34:57,120 Speaker 6: And I did, and we changed it, and everybody's happy, 1395 01:34:57,680 --> 01:35:01,320 Speaker 6: well not everybody, but most people. Most people are happy. 1396 01:35:01,360 --> 01:35:03,680 Speaker 6: But it's great prestige for our country. You know, it's 1397 01:35:03,760 --> 01:35:07,120 Speaker 6: tremendous prestige for our country. That's good for McDonald's and 1398 01:35:07,120 --> 01:35:10,040 Speaker 6: that's good for everybody else. As president, I want you 1399 01:35:10,120 --> 01:35:12,519 Speaker 6: to know that I'm fighting every day to support small 1400 01:35:12,560 --> 01:35:16,160 Speaker 6: businesses like yours and the citizens that we all saw, 1401 01:35:18,680 --> 01:35:22,000 Speaker 6: and together we're fighting for an economy where everyone can win, 1402 01:35:22,120 --> 01:35:25,720 Speaker 6: from the cashier starting her first job, to a franchise 1403 01:35:25,800 --> 01:35:29,200 Speaker 6: he opening his first location, to the young family and 1404 01:35:29,280 --> 01:35:32,000 Speaker 6: they drive through line. I've been on that line many times. 1405 01:35:32,600 --> 01:35:35,400 Speaker 6: Actually that line was incredible in the commercial right, it 1406 01:35:35,439 --> 01:35:38,360 Speaker 6: wasn't a commercial. It was about but they have the line. 1407 01:35:38,520 --> 01:35:41,559 Speaker 6: The people had no idea, So I made the French fries. 1408 01:35:41,600 --> 01:35:43,280 Speaker 6: The guy was really good. He had a great risk 1409 01:35:43,320 --> 01:35:51,439 Speaker 6: to so he's going like, sir, yeah, nice come. It 1410 01:35:51,560 --> 01:35:54,839 Speaker 6: was not that easy, but I got it sort of finally. 1411 01:35:54,880 --> 01:35:56,920 Speaker 6: Not the greatest, but I get it. Pouring it in, 1412 01:35:57,560 --> 01:35:59,640 Speaker 6: asking them all sorts of stupid questions. But it was 1413 01:35:59,720 --> 01:36:02,800 Speaker 6: very interest amazing. A little thing is not it's a 1414 01:36:02,840 --> 01:36:05,760 Speaker 6: little complex, right to father and son over there that 1415 01:36:05,920 --> 01:36:09,160 Speaker 6: owned a lot that very rich people. But I'll tell 1416 01:36:09,160 --> 01:36:11,840 Speaker 6: you what I asked, how many do you have? 1417 01:36:11,960 --> 01:36:12,120 Speaker 5: Sure? 1418 01:36:12,200 --> 01:36:16,400 Speaker 6: I have fifty nine? I said, you're rich. But you know, 1419 01:36:17,080 --> 01:36:19,519 Speaker 6: nobody knew on the line that line was along line 1420 01:36:19,520 --> 01:36:21,920 Speaker 6: they had twenty five thousand people, So somebody let them 1421 01:36:21,960 --> 01:36:24,640 Speaker 6: know we were coming. Was toward the end of the campaign, 1422 01:36:25,520 --> 01:36:28,040 Speaker 6: and after I did the French fries and did some 1423 01:36:28,120 --> 01:36:30,840 Speaker 6: other things, I then stood at the window and the 1424 01:36:30,880 --> 01:36:33,080 Speaker 6: people would drive up a little board. In all fairness, 1425 01:36:33,080 --> 01:36:35,439 Speaker 6: you know it is I mean they're waiting for Hamburger. 1426 01:36:35,479 --> 01:36:39,559 Speaker 4: Okay, So the drive up like this, they look. 1427 01:36:39,479 --> 01:36:46,280 Speaker 6: Over whoh, every one of them, and it was fascinating, 1428 01:36:46,680 --> 01:36:49,839 Speaker 6: every one of them. They would it was. The response 1429 01:36:49,960 --> 01:36:52,360 Speaker 6: was incredible, almost like I knew I was going to 1430 01:36:52,400 --> 01:36:53,200 Speaker 6: win when I saw that. 1431 01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:55,760 Speaker 1: I know, because the response was love. 1432 01:36:55,880 --> 01:36:56,439 Speaker 4: It was great. 1433 01:36:56,439 --> 01:36:58,840 Speaker 6: They had a good time, But we did I think 1434 01:36:58,880 --> 01:37:01,520 Speaker 6: twelve people, every one of them had the same response. 1435 01:37:01,520 --> 01:37:05,960 Speaker 6: They drive up the did that getting a little cash 1436 01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:09,080 Speaker 6: ready and I look over and it was something a 1437 01:37:09,160 --> 01:37:13,479 Speaker 6: double take somewhat like that. Well, but it was. It 1438 01:37:13,560 --> 01:37:16,599 Speaker 6: was sort of an amazing moment, you know. I did 1439 01:37:16,600 --> 01:37:20,040 Speaker 6: a garbage truck also, right and everybody, and I thought 1440 01:37:20,240 --> 01:37:24,280 Speaker 6: when I spoke with Serga and Sunder, I said, yeah, 1441 01:37:24,280 --> 01:37:26,719 Speaker 6: but the garbage truck was equal, was it? They said, 1442 01:37:26,760 --> 01:37:30,280 Speaker 6: not even a garbage truck was great, not even a 1443 01:37:30,320 --> 01:37:34,559 Speaker 6: contest to McDonald's. And that's because we had the power 1444 01:37:34,560 --> 01:37:38,000 Speaker 6: of McDonald's. I mean, it was an amazing thing. I 1445 01:37:38,080 --> 01:37:40,679 Speaker 6: thought the garbage frankly, I thought the garbage truck would 1446 01:37:40,720 --> 01:37:44,400 Speaker 6: have won. And he said, they said it was good, 1447 01:37:44,520 --> 01:37:46,720 Speaker 6: but it wasn't even close. So that's a tribute to 1448 01:37:46,840 --> 01:37:49,479 Speaker 6: what you've built, really, and it is a tribute to 1449 01:37:49,479 --> 01:37:51,880 Speaker 6: what you built. But there's still a lot of work 1450 01:37:51,920 --> 01:37:55,519 Speaker 6: to do, and we're making tremendous progress. One point nine 1451 01:37:55,560 --> 01:38:00,599 Speaker 6: million more American born workers are employed today than when 1452 01:38:00,640 --> 01:38:03,800 Speaker 6: I took off. Was think of that one point nine 1453 01:38:03,880 --> 01:38:08,479 Speaker 6: million were today and these are American born workers. Nobody 1454 01:38:08,520 --> 01:38:11,960 Speaker 6: thought that was possible. And we have the strongest borders 1455 01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:15,439 Speaker 6: in the history of our country. Nobody comes in unless 1456 01:38:15,439 --> 01:38:17,960 Speaker 6: they come in legally. You see the numbers. Everyone thinks 1457 01:38:17,960 --> 01:38:21,679 Speaker 6: it's impossible. A year ago, millions of people were storming 1458 01:38:21,720 --> 01:38:24,519 Speaker 6: our borders. Today they only come in if they come 1459 01:38:24,560 --> 01:38:29,160 Speaker 6: in legally. And wages for hourly workers arising at the 1460 01:38:29,200 --> 01:38:32,280 Speaker 6: fastest pace in sixty years. And sometimes you might say, 1461 01:38:32,479 --> 01:38:33,200 Speaker 6: was that good or bad? 1462 01:38:33,880 --> 01:38:34,640 Speaker 1: It's great for you. 1463 01:38:36,080 --> 01:38:38,559 Speaker 6: The minimum wage thing, you'll have to be talking about. 1464 01:38:38,640 --> 01:38:39,439 Speaker 4: You're gonna have to fight. 1465 01:38:39,520 --> 01:38:45,120 Speaker 6: We were talking about California, Gavin Newscombe from California, and 1466 01:38:45,200 --> 01:38:49,040 Speaker 6: I knew he's laying siege on the minimum wage. And 1467 01:38:49,080 --> 01:38:51,880 Speaker 6: you people probably know because that's a very complex ow. 1468 01:38:51,960 --> 01:38:55,599 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Dan o'donalds show. President Trump talking 1469 01:38:55,640 --> 01:38:59,439 Speaker 1: at the McDonald's Impact Summit, sort of highlighting some of 1470 01:38:59,479 --> 01:39:02,560 Speaker 1: the things in the first few months of his administration 1471 01:39:02,840 --> 01:39:08,200 Speaker 1: that are indicators that America is bouncing back. He is 1472 01:39:08,320 --> 01:39:11,320 Speaker 1: set to talk about the affordability crisis. I do love 1473 01:39:12,040 --> 01:39:15,320 Speaker 1: that he touched on his time as a drive through 1474 01:39:15,800 --> 01:39:20,599 Speaker 1: fast food worker. The McDonald's stunt actually will go down 1475 01:39:20,840 --> 01:39:24,680 Speaker 1: very likely as one of the best political stunts in 1476 01:39:24,720 --> 01:39:28,840 Speaker 1: the history of political stunts, because it was just a 1477 01:39:28,920 --> 01:39:32,839 Speaker 1: candidate having fun and it was the out of place 1478 01:39:33,080 --> 01:39:36,360 Speaker 1: aspect of it that here you have Donald Trump, of 1479 01:39:36,479 --> 01:39:41,479 Speaker 1: all people, serving fries and clearly enjoying the heck out 1480 01:39:41,479 --> 01:39:45,040 Speaker 1: of it. You can always tell which campaign believes they're 1481 01:39:45,080 --> 01:39:48,080 Speaker 1: winning because it's the campaign that is loose, that is 1482 01:39:48,120 --> 01:39:51,680 Speaker 1: having fun, and it was clear at that moment that 1483 01:39:51,960 --> 01:39:56,160 Speaker 1: nobody was having more fun than President Trump. We're going 1484 01:39:56,200 --> 01:39:58,639 Speaker 1: to step aside. We're going to dip back into the 1485 01:39:58,680 --> 01:40:03,000 Speaker 1: president's speech the Impact Summit. When the Dan o'donald Show 1486 01:40:03,160 --> 01:40:08,839 Speaker 1: returns President Trump talking affordability at the McDonald's Impact Summit 1487 01:40:09,080 --> 01:40:12,000 Speaker 1: in Washington, d C. We sort of dipped in a 1488 01:40:12,040 --> 01:40:16,000 Speaker 1: little bit to the president's speech, which is airing live 1489 01:40:16,080 --> 01:40:18,519 Speaker 1: on Fox News if you want to watch it. I 1490 01:40:18,520 --> 01:40:20,560 Speaker 1: don't want to tell you to switch away from me, 1491 01:40:20,760 --> 01:40:24,120 Speaker 1: but he's sort of all over the place. He's doing 1492 01:40:24,200 --> 01:40:27,000 Speaker 1: his what does he call it, the weave where he 1493 01:40:27,040 --> 01:40:29,960 Speaker 1: weaves in and gets back to I really wanted to 1494 01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:34,360 Speaker 1: focus on affordability. The President has been talking about the 1495 01:40:34,439 --> 01:40:39,240 Speaker 1: Iran strike. He's been talking about how bad things were 1496 01:40:39,479 --> 01:40:42,960 Speaker 1: when he arrived in Washington for a second time to 1497 01:40:43,040 --> 01:40:47,160 Speaker 1: begin his second term, and the Democrats were hitting him 1498 01:40:47,200 --> 01:40:49,960 Speaker 1: with the price of eggs. This was one of the 1499 01:40:49,960 --> 01:40:55,440 Speaker 1: most hilarious things. Do you remember early in the President's 1500 01:40:55,479 --> 01:41:00,800 Speaker 1: second term when Democrats were so hell bent on focusing 1501 01:41:00,880 --> 01:41:03,479 Speaker 1: on the price of eggs as sort of like the 1502 01:41:03,920 --> 01:41:08,800 Speaker 1: avatar for Trump's failures to get prices under control. He 1503 01:41:08,840 --> 01:41:12,519 Speaker 1: had been in office for maybe six weeks. Where do 1504 01:41:12,560 --> 01:41:16,400 Speaker 1: you think all of the price increases in egg prices 1505 01:41:16,600 --> 01:41:21,520 Speaker 1: came from? This sort of culminated over the summer where Democrats, 1506 01:41:21,680 --> 01:41:25,960 Speaker 1: the official ex account of the Democrats at the Democrats 1507 01:41:26,400 --> 01:41:30,200 Speaker 1: put out a post. They had a graph showing the 1508 01:41:30,240 --> 01:41:35,840 Speaker 1: price of everything just exploding. The only problem, the price 1509 01:41:35,880 --> 01:41:39,640 Speaker 1: of everything exploded at almost the exact same moment that 1510 01:41:39,800 --> 01:41:43,960 Speaker 1: Joe Biden and Congressional Democrats took control in January of 1511 01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:48,240 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, proving that the massive increases in price 1512 01:41:48,320 --> 01:41:53,920 Speaker 1: were because of them and their policies. That said, we 1513 01:41:53,960 --> 01:41:58,320 Speaker 1: are now nine months into almost ten months into Donald 1514 01:41:58,360 --> 01:42:05,240 Speaker 1: Trump's second At some point, if prices don't start to 1515 01:42:05,400 --> 01:42:10,720 Speaker 1: come down, which would require remember deflation, which is probably 1516 01:42:10,760 --> 01:42:15,160 Speaker 1: not going to happen, Democrats are going to realize, and 1517 01:42:15,200 --> 01:42:18,559 Speaker 1: I can't believe that they haven't realized this yet, that 1518 01:42:18,680 --> 01:42:21,760 Speaker 1: their most potent weapon ahead of the twenty twenty six 1519 01:42:21,880 --> 01:42:27,240 Speaker 1: midterms is to blame sky high prices and America's affordability 1520 01:42:27,720 --> 01:42:32,599 Speaker 1: crisis on Trump. Now, we spent much of the first 1521 01:42:32,760 --> 01:42:38,760 Speaker 1: segment in this hour highlighting exactly how Biden policies and 1522 01:42:38,840 --> 01:42:45,880 Speaker 1: Democrat policies caused inflation. I fear that Trump is going 1523 01:42:45,960 --> 01:42:48,880 Speaker 1: down the same road. Do you know what he announced 1524 01:42:49,040 --> 01:42:53,879 Speaker 1: today early part of twenty twenty six, two thousand dollars 1525 01:42:53,920 --> 01:42:57,719 Speaker 1: stimulus checks for everyone making under one hundred thousand dollars. 1526 01:42:59,160 --> 01:43:02,799 Speaker 1: It's as if we've really learned no lessons from the past. 1527 01:43:04,360 --> 01:43:06,960 Speaker 1: This is a bad idea. Now it's coming at a 1528 01:43:07,040 --> 01:43:11,400 Speaker 1: totally different time. We do have the capacity. The supply 1529 01:43:11,560 --> 01:43:13,680 Speaker 1: chain is back up and running and has been for 1530 01:43:13,720 --> 01:43:16,679 Speaker 1: some time a couple of years now, so we're able 1531 01:43:16,720 --> 01:43:21,120 Speaker 1: to keep up with what will be increased demand. But 1532 01:43:21,240 --> 01:43:25,639 Speaker 1: the biggest enemy the American economy has had for five years. 1533 01:43:25,680 --> 01:43:31,480 Speaker 1: Now is inflation? What is direct stimulus? Is that deflationary 1534 01:43:31,680 --> 01:43:35,759 Speaker 1: or is that inflationary? It's rather obviously inflationary. Biden proved 1535 01:43:35,760 --> 01:43:39,080 Speaker 1: that in spades in early twenty twenty one. Do you 1536 01:43:39,120 --> 01:43:43,479 Speaker 1: realize that within a month of the Biden stimulus checks 1537 01:43:43,560 --> 01:43:47,320 Speaker 1: going out in April of twenty twenty one, we had 1538 01:43:47,520 --> 01:43:51,920 Speaker 1: twenty year highs in year over year inflation. Three months 1539 01:43:51,960 --> 01:43:55,200 Speaker 1: after that, by July of twenty twenty one, we had 1540 01:43:55,400 --> 01:44:00,439 Speaker 1: forty year highs. Within about a year and three months, 1541 01:44:01,040 --> 01:44:05,240 Speaker 1: July of twenty twenty two, we had nine point two 1542 01:44:05,400 --> 01:44:10,560 Speaker 1: percent inflation year over year. That's among the highest ever recorded, 1543 01:44:10,680 --> 01:44:15,000 Speaker 1: rifled only by the hyperinflation of the Jimmy Carter era 1544 01:44:15,120 --> 01:44:19,880 Speaker 1: of the nineteen seventies. It was about as bad as 1545 01:44:19,880 --> 01:44:24,200 Speaker 1: it got. Trump is dealing with the after effects of that. 1546 01:44:25,680 --> 01:44:28,799 Speaker 1: But he has got to recognize that the single biggest 1547 01:44:28,920 --> 01:44:32,559 Speaker 1: issue facing Americans is the fact that they can no 1548 01:44:32,680 --> 01:44:36,680 Speaker 1: longer afford their lives. The thing, how many times, how 1549 01:44:36,720 --> 01:44:41,280 Speaker 1: many years on this program did I talk about how 1550 01:44:41,720 --> 01:44:46,479 Speaker 1: all of a sudden Americans had sixteen thousand dollars for 1551 01:44:46,520 --> 01:44:49,479 Speaker 1: the average family. Now I believe the number is over 1552 01:44:49,560 --> 01:44:53,400 Speaker 1: twenty thousand dollars just to pay for the exact same 1553 01:44:53,439 --> 01:44:58,320 Speaker 1: goods and services that they were before Joe Biden took office. 1554 01:44:58,400 --> 01:45:02,160 Speaker 1: For that reason alone, I think the Biden administration is 1555 01:45:02,200 --> 01:45:05,760 Speaker 1: going to go down as this single most ruinous in 1556 01:45:05,800 --> 01:45:11,160 Speaker 1: this country's history. And that's saying nothing about the millions 1557 01:45:11,160 --> 01:45:15,240 Speaker 1: and millions and millions of illegals, many of whom have 1558 01:45:15,360 --> 01:45:19,599 Speaker 1: been committing criminal acts in this country that were allowed in. 1559 01:45:22,160 --> 01:45:26,360 Speaker 1: Even the ones who are just trying to better their lives, 1560 01:45:27,000 --> 01:45:31,000 Speaker 1: they're working, they're contributing to society by their presence here. 1561 01:45:31,040 --> 01:45:34,920 Speaker 1: In the sudden influx of so many of them, they 1562 01:45:34,920 --> 01:45:40,439 Speaker 1: have contributed to this inflationary nightmare, especially in housing, because 1563 01:45:40,479 --> 01:45:46,280 Speaker 1: their mere presence ensures that there are fewer available housing units, 1564 01:45:46,320 --> 01:45:51,519 Speaker 1: whether it's apartments, whether it's condos, whether it's homes, single family, 1565 01:45:51,600 --> 01:45:56,559 Speaker 1: multifamily houses, duplexes, and so forth. Whatever it is, a 1566 01:45:56,600 --> 01:45:59,600 Speaker 1: sudden influx of a massive number of people. There was 1567 01:45:59,640 --> 01:46:02,360 Speaker 1: a study, i believe by the Urban Institute in twenty 1568 01:46:02,479 --> 01:46:07,560 Speaker 1: nineteen that found a one percent increase in immigration corresponds 1569 01:46:07,600 --> 01:46:11,679 Speaker 1: to a one percent increase in the price of housing. Well, 1570 01:46:11,760 --> 01:46:14,400 Speaker 1: this would make sense because you have got more people 1571 01:46:14,439 --> 01:46:20,120 Speaker 1: competing for the same available goods. It's really no more 1572 01:46:21,040 --> 01:46:26,560 Speaker 1: complicated than that. Why have home prices gone up so exponentially? 1573 01:46:26,560 --> 01:46:28,720 Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, folks, I hope you're all 1574 01:46:28,760 --> 01:46:31,920 Speaker 1: ready for the sticker shock that is coming. Did you 1575 01:46:31,960 --> 01:46:36,479 Speaker 1: see what happened in Chicago? Property tax levees increased by 1576 01:46:36,520 --> 01:46:41,760 Speaker 1: an insane amount. We just reported late last week Friday 1577 01:46:42,360 --> 01:46:47,479 Speaker 1: that West Alice West Milwaukee was levying a massive I 1578 01:46:47,520 --> 01:46:52,800 Speaker 1: believe it was thirty percent increase in property taxes in 1579 01:46:52,840 --> 01:46:56,200 Speaker 1: the West Alice West Milwaukee school district. We're going to 1580 01:46:56,240 --> 01:47:00,360 Speaker 1: see that all across Wisconsin because the value of homes 1581 01:47:00,479 --> 01:47:05,439 Speaker 1: has been artificially inflated by the bidding war that people 1582 01:47:05,479 --> 01:47:10,640 Speaker 1: are getting into. Because homes in certain desirable areas Brookfield, 1583 01:47:10,880 --> 01:47:15,600 Speaker 1: New Berlin, Muskego, areas with very very good public schools 1584 01:47:16,080 --> 01:47:21,679 Speaker 1: are just getting snapped up instantly. You are getting multiple 1585 01:47:21,760 --> 01:47:25,360 Speaker 1: offers well above asking price because nobody is selling it. 1586 01:47:25,400 --> 01:47:28,559 Speaker 1: A big reason for that is the only way that 1587 01:47:28,600 --> 01:47:32,640 Speaker 1: the Federal Reserve can get inflation out of an economic 1588 01:47:32,760 --> 01:47:37,519 Speaker 1: system is by raising interest rates to artificially choke off 1589 01:47:37,600 --> 01:47:41,679 Speaker 1: the supply of available capital or money so that people 1590 01:47:41,760 --> 01:47:45,800 Speaker 1: are not as easily able to gain access to the 1591 01:47:45,840 --> 01:47:52,519 Speaker 1: goods and services that they need to finance, particularly housing. Well, 1592 01:47:52,600 --> 01:47:55,599 Speaker 1: people who are locked into a two and a half 1593 01:47:55,760 --> 01:48:01,840 Speaker 1: percent mortgage would have to have if their economic circumstances 1594 01:48:01,960 --> 01:48:08,559 Speaker 1: dramatically improve or they're fiscally insane to get out of 1595 01:48:08,560 --> 01:48:10,439 Speaker 1: a two and a half percent mortgage to get in 1596 01:48:10,479 --> 01:48:13,160 Speaker 1: a six and a half percent mortgage for a house 1597 01:48:13,160 --> 01:48:17,639 Speaker 1: that is bigger and more expensive. Because wages haven't gone 1598 01:48:17,680 --> 01:48:22,960 Speaker 1: up exponentially, they have risen rather steadily, but because so 1599 01:48:23,200 --> 01:48:27,400 Speaker 1: many people are now competing for a dwindling housing supply, 1600 01:48:27,920 --> 01:48:30,439 Speaker 1: because people just aren't moving out of their houses. And 1601 01:48:30,600 --> 01:48:33,840 Speaker 1: add to that the fact that baby boomers, who are 1602 01:48:33,880 --> 01:48:37,439 Speaker 1: now expecting to live a whole lot longer than older 1603 01:48:37,520 --> 01:48:41,880 Speaker 1: generations in years past, they're not moving out of their 1604 01:48:41,920 --> 01:48:46,160 Speaker 1: bigger homes, or they are, but they're moving into slightly 1605 01:48:46,240 --> 01:48:49,360 Speaker 1: smaller homes. They're not going into a nursing home. If 1606 01:48:49,400 --> 01:48:52,599 Speaker 1: you're seventy five years old and you're totally with it, 1607 01:48:53,040 --> 01:48:56,000 Speaker 1: why would you move to a nursing home. That that 1608 01:48:56,160 --> 01:49:00,000 Speaker 1: was typically what people would do because they didn't anticipate 1609 01:49:00,240 --> 01:49:03,360 Speaker 1: living much longer. Well, if you're seventy five years old, 1610 01:49:04,360 --> 01:49:06,400 Speaker 1: if you're in good health. If you're in good shape, 1611 01:49:06,479 --> 01:49:12,200 Speaker 1: you're golfing every day. Realistically, you can probably expect to 1612 01:49:12,280 --> 01:49:15,720 Speaker 1: live to ninety or ninety five years old. It's changing 1613 01:49:16,520 --> 01:49:21,280 Speaker 1: the calculus for people at or well above retirement age. 1614 01:49:21,320 --> 01:49:25,200 Speaker 1: All of this is putting pressure on a housing market 1615 01:49:25,520 --> 01:49:30,360 Speaker 1: that simply wasn't built for ten million new people to 1616 01:49:30,479 --> 01:49:33,680 Speaker 1: come in in a very short period of time and 1617 01:49:33,760 --> 01:49:38,880 Speaker 1: put an artificial strain on the demand side, or excuse me, 1618 01:49:38,920 --> 01:49:43,720 Speaker 1: on the supply side for housing. Everything else sort of 1619 01:49:44,040 --> 01:49:47,360 Speaker 1: flows from that. We spent a lot of time on 1620 01:49:47,400 --> 01:49:50,920 Speaker 1: this show last week talking about America's new housing crisis 1621 01:49:51,200 --> 01:49:56,280 Speaker 1: from that perspective that because there just simply isn't enough supply, 1622 01:49:57,400 --> 01:50:02,400 Speaker 1: people are not buying houses, delaying pretty much everything. They're 1623 01:50:02,439 --> 01:50:07,880 Speaker 1: delaying having kids, they're delaying getting married, they're delaying, you know, 1624 01:50:08,040 --> 01:50:12,120 Speaker 1: moving to a different community in pursuit of a career advancement. 1625 01:50:12,439 --> 01:50:16,080 Speaker 1: Everything is getting delayed a because yes, people are expecting 1626 01:50:16,120 --> 01:50:19,720 Speaker 1: to live longer. People can now have children safely much 1627 01:50:19,800 --> 01:50:23,040 Speaker 1: much later in life. It's not nearly as risky to 1628 01:50:23,080 --> 01:50:26,080 Speaker 1: have a child at age thirty seven thirty eight, which 1629 01:50:26,560 --> 01:50:29,240 Speaker 1: generations ago would have been considered very risky because that's 1630 01:50:29,280 --> 01:50:34,120 Speaker 1: advanced maternal age. But because of these advances in medical science, 1631 01:50:34,160 --> 01:50:37,320 Speaker 1: you can do so much much more safely. Yes, they're 1632 01:50:37,360 --> 01:50:39,640 Speaker 1: doing that, but also they have so much debt. And 1633 01:50:39,640 --> 01:50:45,320 Speaker 1: here's another aspect of it. College costs. Tuition is absolutely 1634 01:50:45,400 --> 01:50:48,880 Speaker 1: out of control. People are getting degrees. Young people are 1635 01:50:48,880 --> 01:50:51,519 Speaker 1: going out in the world with a mountain of debt 1636 01:50:51,960 --> 01:50:55,200 Speaker 1: with a degree in gender studies that they couldn't ever 1637 01:50:55,439 --> 01:51:01,080 Speaker 1: possibly hope to pay that back. You've got a financial 1638 01:51:01,240 --> 01:51:03,880 Speaker 1: mess for a whole lot of people. And while this 1639 01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:07,320 Speaker 1: is most certainly not of Trump's doing, these are not 1640 01:51:07,479 --> 01:51:11,360 Speaker 1: Republican policies that led to all of this. They're the 1641 01:51:11,400 --> 01:51:14,559 Speaker 1: ones in charge now, and you'd better believe that they 1642 01:51:14,560 --> 01:51:16,719 Speaker 1: are going to be the ones. They're already the ones 1643 01:51:16,760 --> 01:51:20,120 Speaker 1: getting the blame, and voters will punish them at the 1644 01:51:20,160 --> 01:51:24,880 Speaker 1: ballot box in twenty twenty six. Unless this is gotten 1645 01:51:24,960 --> 01:51:29,439 Speaker 1: under control, and gotten under control very very quickly, we'll 1646 01:51:29,439 --> 01:51:32,680 Speaker 1: be back Dan O'Donnell's show more Tocon less than a 1647 01:51:32,760 --> 01:51:35,960 Speaker 1: day on the job, and new Interim US Attorney Brad 1648 01:51:36,080 --> 01:51:40,280 Speaker 1: Shimmel is already making news. He said today that plea 1649 01:51:40,360 --> 01:51:45,879 Speaker 1: negotiations are underway ahead of the expected December fifteenth trial 1650 01:51:46,000 --> 01:51:51,160 Speaker 1: date for Milwaukee County judge Hannah Dugan. She could potentially 1651 01:51:51,200 --> 01:51:55,120 Speaker 1: be pleading guilty to charges that she obstructed a federal 1652 01:51:55,120 --> 01:51:58,559 Speaker 1: investigation back in April. You might remember that we reported 1653 01:51:58,600 --> 01:52:01,760 Speaker 1: this exclusively on the day O'donnald's show. She was even 1654 01:52:01,800 --> 01:52:06,080 Speaker 1: caught on police body camera footage during an interview with 1655 01:52:06,200 --> 01:52:10,599 Speaker 1: her denying it and mentioning that some radical right wing 1656 01:52:10,760 --> 01:52:15,840 Speaker 1: radio provocateur was spreading lies about her. When I had 1657 01:52:15,880 --> 01:52:20,639 Speaker 1: a source in the courtroom who saw everything happen, Hannah 1658 01:52:20,720 --> 01:52:28,200 Speaker 1: Dugan absolutely did help an illegal alien, violent criminal escape 1659 01:52:28,360 --> 01:52:33,200 Speaker 1: ICE capture by smuggling him through her jury room exit 1660 01:52:33,720 --> 01:52:37,719 Speaker 1: and out a private elevator away from ICE agents. Thank Heaven's, 1661 01:52:37,760 --> 01:52:41,000 Speaker 1: one of those agents saw this guy get on the elevator, 1662 01:52:41,120 --> 01:52:45,040 Speaker 1: followed him, and ICE was able to arrest him. That 1663 01:52:45,200 --> 01:52:49,000 Speaker 1: guy was actually deported a couple of days ago. So 1664 01:52:49,240 --> 01:52:53,519 Speaker 1: poor Hannah Dugan's crimes were all for not Well. Now, 1665 01:52:53,880 --> 01:52:57,680 Speaker 1: Shimmel is saying that today actually he's not going to 1666 01:52:57,720 --> 01:53:01,360 Speaker 1: take an active role in prosecuting Dugan because the case 1667 01:53:01,479 --> 01:53:09,280 Speaker 1: is already well underway. Dugan is going to admit guilt. 1668 01:53:10,040 --> 01:53:14,440 Speaker 1: She is going to admit that, yes, everything we reported 1669 01:53:14,520 --> 01:53:20,000 Speaker 1: initially is correct in exchange for a lighter federal sentence. 1670 01:53:21,520 --> 01:53:24,400 Speaker 1: Now we don't know if they're going to come to 1671 01:53:24,439 --> 01:53:29,759 Speaker 1: an agreement. We don't know if the dinosaur federal judge, 1672 01:53:30,400 --> 01:53:35,679 Speaker 1: the looney one, lynn Abel Adelman, the farthest left judge 1673 01:53:35,720 --> 01:53:39,799 Speaker 1: perhaps in the entire federal judiciary, and that is saying 1674 01:53:39,880 --> 01:53:43,439 Speaker 1: something we don't know if he'll sign off on that 1675 01:53:43,520 --> 01:53:47,240 Speaker 1: plea agreement. Judges don't have to accept deals between US 1676 01:53:47,320 --> 01:53:51,360 Speaker 1: attorneys and defense attorneys, or state prosecutors and defense attorneys. 1677 01:53:51,920 --> 01:53:54,880 Speaker 1: But it certainly does sound like this case is not 1678 01:53:54,960 --> 01:53:58,360 Speaker 1: going to go to trial, which is absolutely stunning to me, 1679 01:53:58,560 --> 01:54:02,560 Speaker 1: because I thought for sure Adelman would rig the outcome 1680 01:54:03,040 --> 01:54:06,280 Speaker 1: so that there was no way that Dugan would be convicted. 1681 01:54:06,680 --> 01:54:09,559 Speaker 1: The only thing I can surmise from this is, as 1682 01:54:09,600 --> 01:54:14,880 Speaker 1: I originally suspected, the evidence against Dugan is so cut 1683 01:54:14,920 --> 01:54:18,360 Speaker 1: and dry, and in fact, we have spent months now 1684 01:54:18,400 --> 01:54:21,640 Speaker 1: going over that evidence, at least the evidence that is 1685 01:54:21,680 --> 01:54:27,599 Speaker 1: available publicly, but what was generated during discovery in this 1686 01:54:27,720 --> 01:54:33,320 Speaker 1: trial must just be absolutely devastating for Dugan because why 1687 01:54:33,400 --> 01:54:36,360 Speaker 1: wouldn't she want to roll the dice with one of 1688 01:54:36,400 --> 01:54:40,920 Speaker 1: her staunchest allies, a far left liberal who's undoubtedly going 1689 01:54:40,960 --> 01:54:44,120 Speaker 1: to want to make the Trump administration look bad. Remember, 1690 01:54:44,160 --> 01:54:46,480 Speaker 1: the entire left was saying, oh my gosh, this is 1691 01:54:46,600 --> 01:54:50,000 Speaker 1: judicial immunity. In any event, we will have to follow 1692 01:54:50,040 --> 01:54:52,400 Speaker 1: that at a later date because we are out of time. 1693 01:54:52,520 --> 01:54:55,480 Speaker 1: Talk to you tomorrow right here on the Dan o'donald's show.
