Speaker 1: This is America's Trucking Network with Kevin Gordon.
Speaker 4: Well them aboard.
Speaker 5: Thanks for tuning in on this Thursday morning. Who says
Speaker 5: nothing good happens after midnight, certainly not here on America's
Speaker 5: struck in Network.
Speaker 4: We prove that wrong every day.
Speaker 5: By the way, we got a little bit of a
Speaker 5: Weather News tropical Storm Jerry, actually Hurricane Jerry, topical storm
Speaker 5: a little stronger, expected to pass very near the northern
Speaker 5: Leeward Islands late later today and into tonight. So but
Speaker 5: the trajectory of this I mentioned yesterday that it looked
Speaker 5: like it was heading towards you know, Florida, and that
Speaker 5: it was the path looked like it was going to
Speaker 5: be heading north. But it is actually showing even more
Speaker 5: heading north and then east, so it's going to be
Speaker 5: heading out to sea. So hopefully all we're going to
Speaker 5: be getting is a little bit of storm surge and
Speaker 5: not a direct hit on America or you know, the
Speaker 5: continent of America.
Speaker 4: So that's good news.
Speaker 5: As if I needed another reason to eat more hamburgers.
Speaker 4: This is unbelievable.
Speaker 5: Fast food chain Steak and Shake has started installing large
Speaker 5: American flags at its outlets across the country. The company
Speaker 5: said on October the fifth post on X they are
Speaker 5: going to be installing the tallest and biggest American flags
Speaker 5: at restaurants nationwide. The flag installations have begun at Steak
Speaker 5: and Shake. The company said every Steak in Shake is
Speaker 5: getting the tallest and biggest American flag that local governments
Speaker 5: will allow. Stake and Shake proudly announced to supporters on
Speaker 5: American Values and Traditions. Proudly supports Americans values and traditions.
Speaker 5: The post went viral, garnering six point four million views
Speaker 5: and nearly two hundred thousand likes as of Monday. But
Speaker 5: I'm sure even more then, according to Elon Musk, he
Speaker 5: posted on X I'm ordering from there tomorrow. Steak and Shake,
Speaker 5: based in Indiana, employees more than ten thousand people. According
Speaker 5: to LinkedIn, As of August, there were three hundred and
Speaker 5: sixty three hundred and ninety seven Steak and Shake restaurants
Speaker 5: across twenty four state territories in the United States, according
Speaker 5: to an August twentieth report by data company Scrape. Hero
Speaker 5: Stake and Shake announced and came as after Donald President
Speaker 5: Donald Trump signed an executive order on August the twenty
Speaker 5: fifth directing Eternal Attorney General Pam Bondi to prosecute people
Speaker 5: caught burning the flag or desecrating it in other ways.
Speaker 5: According to his post in his order, our great American
Speaker 5: Flag is the most sacred and cherished symbol of the
Speaker 5: United States of America and as and of American freedom, identity,
Speaker 5: and strength. Over nearly two and a half centuries, many
Speaker 5: thousands of American patriots have fought, bled, and died to
Speaker 5: keep the stars and strike waving proudly.
Speaker 4: The order said, burning the national flag.
Speaker 5: Is a statement of contempt, hostility, and violence against our nation,
Speaker 5: the clearest possible expression of opposition to the political union
Speaker 5: that preserves our rights, liberty, and security. Burning this representation
Speaker 5: of America may incite violence and riot. Now there's been
Speaker 5: a lot of pushback on this. You know, they talk
Speaker 5: about this being people burning the flag is a matter
Speaker 5: of First Amendment rights, free speech and so on. Now,
Speaker 5: the burning the flag was a form of political protests
Speaker 5: that became prevalent during the Vietnam War. Subsequently, the Flag
Speaker 5: Protection Act of nineteen sixty eight was passed, which banned
Speaker 5: burning and defiling the flag. The Supreme Court overturned the
Speaker 5: law in nineteen eighty nine, but nineteen years later No
Speaker 5: twenty one years later declaring the desecration of the American
Speaker 5: Flag is protected under the First Amendment, and in August
Speaker 5: twenty fifth statement, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression FIRE,
Speaker 5: named the acronym FIRE, opposed the executive order. Now, the
Speaker 5: purpose of this and talking about this possibly inciting riot
Speaker 5: would be justification for putting this into effect. Now, again,
Speaker 5: First Amendment people, you know, they expressing their you know,
Speaker 5: First Amendment rights, freedom of speech, burning the American flag
Speaker 5: and all that sort of stuff. But you know what
Speaker 5: they'll say is that, hey, it's just a piece of cloth.
Speaker 5: You know, it's it's just a representation of America. It
Speaker 5: is not America, and all this sort of stuff. And
Speaker 5: my answer to that is, well, if it's so insignificant,
Speaker 5: why do you burn it in the first place, Because
Speaker 5: you're trying to make a point, and the point is stupid,
Speaker 5: and if it incites a riot, and you know, you know,
Speaker 5: if you aggravate people, they're going to react. And so
Speaker 5: the fact that this is being put in place, I
Speaker 5: applaud this, the fact that Steak and Shake is saying,
Speaker 5: you know what, we are a proud company. We are
Speaker 5: a proud American company, and we're going to stand by
Speaker 5: that as much as possible, and installing as large a
Speaker 5: flag as will be allowed by these individual communities show
Speaker 5: the positive patriotic spirit of that company towards America. And
Speaker 5: like I said, all I need is one more reason
Speaker 5: to go out and buy more hammers and eat more Hamburgers.
Speaker 5: Next thing you know, they'll be putting up flags at
Speaker 5: different pizza chains too, and so there goes my diet.
Speaker 4: But you know, I don't mind.
Speaker 5: Yesterday I mentioned that Donald Trump and Mark Carey, the
Speaker 5: Prime Minister of Great Britain, we're meeting and they were
Speaker 5: talking about the trade negotiations and so on, and there's
Speaker 5: been other stories. There have been some additional stories as
Speaker 5: a result of that. I'm going to follow up on that.
Speaker 5: President Donald Trump said he expects us and Canada can
Speaker 5: get there on a resolution to their dispute over sectoral.
Speaker 4: Tariffs on steel, aluminum, and autos.
Speaker 5: Trump made his remarks in an Oval Office meeting with
Speaker 5: Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney on August, well actually August
Speaker 5: October the seventh, two days ago, where the presidents described
Speaker 5: the disagreements between the countries as natural conflicts because they're
Speaker 5: competing for the same businesses. Quoted by Donald Trump, That's
Speaker 5: why I keep mentioning. One of the ways to solve
Speaker 5: that problem is the very easy way, Trump said, and
Speaker 5: an apparent reference to his suggestion that Canada should become
Speaker 5: the fifty first state, an idea that was widely opposed
Speaker 5: by Canadians.
Speaker 4: Well, I'm sure they would.
Speaker 5: But when he made that comment, watching the press conference,
Speaker 5: Carney smiled and kind of laughed a little bit, knowing
Speaker 5: that this is kind of a trolling, if you will,
Speaker 5: or just kind of a little bit of a nudge
Speaker 5: or something like it.
Speaker 4: And he gets the joke. And that's the important thing.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 5: Initially, when he met with Trump back in what was
Speaker 5: at April or May, it was confrontational and Trump was
Speaker 5: kind of needling him and he said, you know, certain
Speaker 5: things are not for sale, and you know as a
Speaker 5: real estate developer that that's not possible and we're probably
Speaker 5: not going to We're definitely not going to do that.
Speaker 5: What I didn't know, and I probably should have known
Speaker 5: at the time, is that with Carney just being elected
Speaker 5: in April, I didn't know his background. Mark Carney's second
Speaker 5: visit to the White House since becoming Prime Minister earlier
Speaker 5: this year, with a trading relationship worth nine hundred billion
Speaker 5: dollars on the line, the former central banker one election
Speaker 5: in April, so he is approaching this from a banking standpoint.
Speaker 5: He understands economics, and he understands what Donald Trump is
Speaker 5: trying to do. And the fact that Donald Trump needles
Speaker 5: him is he gets it. He gets the joke and
Speaker 5: he gets the idea and to the point where the
Speaker 5: two get along. I got to tell you, watching that
Speaker 5: press conference, I was very encouraged by the talks and
Speaker 5: how these two interacted to the point where they understood
Speaker 5: each other. They know where each other is coming from,
Speaker 5: and both want to have a deal that's good for
Speaker 5: their own countries.
Speaker 4: And this is the whole point.
Speaker 5: When you are the representative of a particular country, if
Speaker 5: you're the prime minister or if you're the president of
Speaker 5: a particular country, you want your country to succeed. You
Speaker 5: are not the president or the prime minister of Europe,
Speaker 5: You're not the Prime minister of France, You're not the
Speaker 5: president of any other country. You are the president of
Speaker 5: the United States. And he is the Prime Minister of Canada.
Speaker 5: Of course, they want both of their countries to do well,
Speaker 5: and they want to come to a mutual agreement.
Speaker 4: A lot of the stuff that they talked about.
Speaker 5: I just got the most comfortable feeling listening to these
Speaker 5: two talks. Carneal told Trump that Canada is the US
Speaker 5: largest foreign investor, suggested that the pace of investment may
Speaker 5: accelerate probably one trillion in the next five years as
Speaker 5: we get the agreement. There are areas where we compete,
Speaker 5: and those areas where we have to come to an
Speaker 5: agreement that works, as Carney said, but there are some
Speaker 5: areas where we are stronger together and that's what we're
Speaker 5: focused on. Pick this up coming up, I'm Kevin Gordon,
Speaker 5: america'struck a Network seven hundred WLW DO.
Speaker 1: This is the Reething report on America's trucking network on
Speaker 1: seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 7: There are reports that NASCAR is looking in to modify
Speaker 7: its playoff system to crown a champion in the future.
Speaker 7: It's a playoff system for the past few years, but
Speaker 7: for many years it was a points system. The King
Speaker 7: Richard Petty, in his longtime Hall of Fame crew chief
Speaker 7: Dale Enman, talks about this on the Petty Podcast.
Speaker 8: I still think to have a champion of NASCAR that
Speaker 8: is a year long championship. It's not a one race championship.
Speaker 8: It's not a four race championship. It should be if
Speaker 8: we were in thirty six races, who is the best
Speaker 8: out of those thirty six they should be the champion.
Speaker 9: I'm with Richard on that first race start at thirty
Speaker 9: six races, a in it and whoever's got the most
Speaker 9: points as a champion.
Speaker 7: Also, Chip Canassi Racing has announced it's expanding against indie
Speaker 7: NXT program to four cars for the twenty twenty six season.
Speaker 7: N HR officials have announced at Dodge and Direct Connection
Speaker 7: have been named the title sponsor of the upcoming fall
Speaker 7: race at the Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Speaker 1: Need This is the racing repard on America's Trucking Network
Speaker 1: on seven hundred WLW, say Dennis at ATN.
Speaker 4: You've got a ton of equity in your home. You're
Speaker 4: sitting on a gold mine.
Speaker 10: You can do so much with all that cash, like travel,
Speaker 10: invest it, or payoff debts, but you can't more.
Speaker 4: Yes, sir, But Mike, do you think people believe car
Speaker 4: over me? Well, you are the phantom tire buyers exactly.
Speaker 11: You're one stop for advertising called eight four four eight
Speaker 11: four four.
Speaker 4: iHeart.
Speaker 5: I'm Kevin Gordon, America's truck and Network seven hundred. WLW,
Speaker 5: continuing this discussion about Trump, says US Canada can get
Speaker 5: there on a tariff deal again.
Speaker 4: I gotta emphasize watching.
Speaker 5: The two of these two guys, Mark Carney and Donald
Speaker 5: Trump talking, it was just so refreshing to see. You know,
Speaker 5: you start off with that adversarial type of a situation
Speaker 5: back in May when they first met, and then they
Speaker 5: get over that and then get to the point where
Speaker 5: they start negotiating. That's how adults do things. Now there
Speaker 5: is this thought and there is this discussion as to
Speaker 5: how you approach a particular discussion. I go back to
Speaker 5: a movie and a play that I just absolutely love,
Speaker 5: and I watch it as often as I can it's
Speaker 5: called seventeen seventy six.
Speaker 4: It's a musical.
Speaker 5: It's a musical play and was adapted into a in
Speaker 5: nineteen seventy two about the signing of the Declaration of
Speaker 5: Independence and the discussion back and forth all the people
Speaker 5: and how they arrived at the decision. Very historically accurate
Speaker 5: on a lot of the stuff that was discussed in there.
Speaker 5: Two of the main characters, John Adams and Ben Franklin.
Speaker 5: John Adams was kind of a They describe him during
Speaker 5: the play and in a particular song as being obnoxious
Speaker 5: and disliked because he's one of these and history points
Speaker 5: out that he was kind of a very confrontational type
Speaker 5: of an individual. He was one of these people that
Speaker 5: would just go for it with full gusto. Ben Franklin,
Speaker 5: on the other hand, was the diplomat. He would try
Speaker 5: to work behind the scenes to get things done with
Speaker 5: the bombast of John Adams getting the ball moving that
Speaker 5: Ben frankl would come behind and try to smooth things over.
Speaker 5: I experienced that with a group that we formed here
Speaker 5: in well, in my home city or in my home
Speaker 5: county in northern Kentucky, Campbell County, when we formed a
Speaker 5: group group called the Independent Business Association of Northern Kentucky.
Speaker 5: We were trying to get certain things done, and get
Speaker 5: certain things done as far as the various county commissioners,
Speaker 5: trying to lower tax rates, trying to get certain things accomplished,
Speaker 5: trying to eliminate or actually eliminate the talk of having
Speaker 5: tolls in the Brent Spnz Bridge, and some other things
Speaker 5: that were going on.
Speaker 4: And I don't want to go into.
Speaker 5: All the details, but I found during those negotiations of
Speaker 5: dealing with the city commitssion or county commissioners and even
Speaker 5: the cities themselves that I am kind of more of
Speaker 5: the John John Adams type where I just want to
Speaker 5: go for I want to, you know, kind of rattle
Speaker 5: the things a little bit and point out to where
Speaker 5: the ignorance of these people are going. One of the
Speaker 5: members of the organization people kept referring to them as
Speaker 5: Switzerland because he would come in and try to make
Speaker 5: phone calls, go have lunch with the people, kind of
Speaker 5: smooth things over, and then try to arrange some sort
Speaker 5: of you know, off the books type of discussions. But
Speaker 5: the combination of the two of us we got an
Speaker 5: awful lot accomplished and got some things changed in all
Speaker 5: the counties in northern Kentucky as and you know, not
Speaker 5: only in Campbell County, with Kenton County and Boone County
Speaker 5: as well. And so it's kind of this contract. Donald
Speaker 5: Trump's more of a is more of a John Adams
Speaker 5: type of an individual where he will kind of, you know,
Speaker 5: kind of shock people at first with some of the
Speaker 5: stuff that he does, but then as a result in
Speaker 5: the negotiation, getting the negotiation started, and then as a
Speaker 5: result of looking at those negotiations, adapt and adjust where
Speaker 5: he's coming from in order to get something accomplished. And
Speaker 5: this is what I saw between the two of them
Speaker 5: when they were discussing this in the Oval Office. US
Speaker 5: tariffs on steel, auto lumber or battering key Canadian industries
Speaker 5: and UGUS. First, Trump raised levies on goods that don't
Speaker 5: comply with the US Mexico Canadian agreement to thirty five
Speaker 5: and thirty and twenty from twenty five percent. The trade
Speaker 5: war has caused losses and put a chill on business investment,
Speaker 5: pushing Canada's economy to contract in the second quarter.
Speaker 4: Again, when you look at the.
Speaker 5: Type of trade negotiations or what tariffs were in place,
Speaker 5: prior to April the second Liberation Day, when Donald Trump
Speaker 5: started announcing these various tariffs. Looking at the chart on
Speaker 5: some of the items that were charged, two hundred and
Speaker 5: ninety nine percent tariff on our dairy goods going into Canada,
Speaker 5: and we hardly charge any tariffs on their stuff coming
Speaker 5: into the United States.
Speaker 4: That's ridiculous.
Speaker 5: The fact that we don't sell much products over there
Speaker 5: creates problems as far as our economy is concerned, job
Speaker 5: losses or individual businesses not being able to expand as
Speaker 5: much as they could. And the fact that this market
Speaker 5: is just across the border should be a natural partner
Speaker 5: for us. And the fact that this was a trade
Speaker 5: in balance in the terraffs rout of whack. Something needed
Speaker 5: to be done. Now, I guess you could have done
Speaker 5: something more in the way of at Ben Franklin type
Speaker 5: of thing, a behind the scenes kind of soft negotiations
Speaker 5: and that type of thing, but a lot of times
Speaker 5: that takes more time. And by Trump coming in on
Speaker 5: Liberation Day and slapping these tariffs on pending the negotiation.
Speaker 5: Now remember when he did this, he was talking about
Speaker 5: the fentanyl increase, the drugs coming up from Mexico, and
Speaker 5: drugs coming in from Canada and kind of a penalty
Speaker 5: on that. They started clamping down in Canada, they started
Speaker 5: clamping down in Mexico. To comply with that, he rolled
Speaker 5: back and adjusted some of the terriffs and then kept
Speaker 5: some of the tariffs in place, trying to get more
Speaker 5: of a fair trade as opposed to free trade. You
Speaker 5: can have all the free trade you want, but if
Speaker 5: your products can be sold in these other countries because
Speaker 5: of the import duties and the trade negotiations and the
Speaker 5: problems with their import situation as well as tariffs, all
Speaker 5: the free trade in the world isn't going to do
Speaker 5: anything because you can't sell your products there. So by
Speaker 5: negotiating these tariffs and again it's more of a bombastic
Speaker 5: way of doing it bought up to this point has
Speaker 5: been effective, and especially with Canada the way carneye being
Speaker 5: a central banker, coming from a business background and understanding economics,
Speaker 5: realized this and said, Okay, you know.
Speaker 4: You've made your point. Now let's discuss these things.
Speaker 5: And I'm just amazed at how this is going on.
Speaker 5: Carney offered an olive branch to Trump in August when
Speaker 5: he announced lifting of most of Canada's retaliatory teriffs on
Speaker 5: imports from the US. Carney's predecessor, Justin Trudeau, imposed counter
Speaker 5: tariffs of about sixty billion dollars Canadian forty three billion
Speaker 5: dollars American American dollars of US products. Canada new policy
Speaker 5: on counter teriffs is to apply them to areas where
Speaker 5: the UF tariffs US tariffs are in place, such as
Speaker 5: steel and aluminum. This is the way stuff gets done
Speaker 5: between adults. You make your point, then you negotiate, you
Speaker 5: come back, and you make some sort of an agreement.
Speaker 5: We're working on formulas, according to Trump. He said, we're
Speaker 5: working on formulas, and I think we'll get there. Carney's
Speaker 5: top negotiators include Cabinet Minister responsible for US Trade Dominic LeBlanc,
Speaker 5: and Canada's ambassador in US, Kristin Hillman, and still pushing
Speaker 5: for a near term deal that would see some sectoral
Speaker 5: tariffs lowered or dropped. Dropped tariffs being dropped, big surprise,
Speaker 5: something that I don't think would be done by the
Speaker 5: soft approach and negotiating these things behind the scenes and
Speaker 5: trying to work here, trying to work there, but you
Speaker 5: get it out in front of everybody. Till everybody understands
Speaker 5: the unfairness, and then that puts them on the spot
Speaker 5: to negotiate and if their economy is suffering or which
Speaker 5: a lot of people are saying that these foreign countries,
Speaker 5: their economies are suffering because of the tariffs. Again, as
Speaker 5: I've been saying in the past, you guys are the
Speaker 5: ones that are in control.
Speaker 4: You are the ones that have the higher terriffs.
Speaker 5: You're preventing us from selling our goods into your country,
Speaker 5: which affects American jobs, affects the amount of goods that
Speaker 5: are transferred and trucked by our truckers. You out there
Speaker 5: in the audience, and it boosts your ability to transport
Speaker 5: more products for export purposes. And I probably the how
Speaker 5: would you say, the most delicate way of doing things,
Speaker 5: Probably the most soft way of doing things. But it's
Speaker 5: sure as hell has been effective. And what was funny
Speaker 5: also during this Oval Office press conference, Donald Trump was
Speaker 5: saying to the Prime Minister, he said, you know, our
Speaker 5: ambassador there was a comment, and the ambassador to Canada
Speaker 5: spoke up, and Trump paused in a moment while the
Speaker 5: guy was asking the question or making the comment, he goes,
Speaker 5: he goes, is he doing a pretty good job, because
Speaker 5: if he isn't, Mark, I'll fire him right now. And
Speaker 5: the two of them just laughed like it was like
Speaker 5: a couple of guys the way things normally are.
Speaker 4: It's just amazing.
Speaker 5: I just can't talk about how great it was to
Speaker 5: watch these two communicate and go back and forth. And
Speaker 5: there will be a deal done. It'll be fair for
Speaker 5: both countries. And because Mark Harney is concerned about his
Speaker 5: country doing well and Donald Trump is concerned about our
Speaker 5: company doing our country doing well. I'm Kevin Gordon, America's

Speaker 5: iHeartRadio app brought to you by our friends at Rush
Speaker 5: Truck Centers, and we certainly appreciate that. Talk about tariffs
Speaker 5: and continuing kind of the trend here, Trump delays US
Speaker 5: tariffs on heavy truck imports to November the first again.
Speaker 4: All these import trucks Volvo.
Speaker 5: And Diimer, Diaimler North America, these foreign countries bringing their
Speaker 5: trucks into the United States. Tariffs We're supposed to go
Speaker 5: on those trucks October the first again, based on the
Speaker 5: progress and negotiations, how things are moving forward. That talking
Speaker 5: about from the various dealers and the companies in the
Speaker 5: United States, how this affects them. These things are negotiated
Speaker 5: and then adjusted accordingly. When you start seeing some movement
Speaker 5: as far as the tariff's discussion and import discussions, then
Speaker 5: you start adjusting that and again. So he postponed this
Speaker 5: until November, the first before these tariffs would go into effect,
Speaker 5: to get more time to get some of these negotiations going.
Speaker 5: President Trump said the twenty five percent duties on medium
Speaker 5: and the heavy duty trucks would begin November one, the
Speaker 5: latest expansion of his tariff regime aimed at protecting domestic industry.
Speaker 5: I have a note here because this story was done
Speaker 5: by Bloomberg News. They are more than a bubble or
Speaker 5: two left of center. So they're one of the folks
Speaker 5: in the spoon feder regurgitators in the mainstream media that
Speaker 5: are always criticizing the Trump administration, criticizing his economic policies,
Speaker 5: and really the news agency itself along with the rest
Speaker 5: of the spoon federalcgurgitators.
Speaker 4: In the mainstream media.
Speaker 5: Ninety four percent of the coverage of Donald Trump and
Speaker 5: his economic policies have been trashed by them, even though
Speaker 5: they are very effective. And this is, you know, this
Speaker 5: is the problem is that when you see ninety four
Speaker 5: percent negative coverage, no wonder a lot of people have
Speaker 5: a bad idea or bad thoughts in terms of what's
Speaker 5: going on in the economy. But everything that we're seeing
Speaker 5: in terms of spending, retail sales, car sales, used truck
Speaker 5: sales and stuff, all these things are surprisingly unexpectedly better
Speaker 5: than expected.
Speaker 4: So you know, where is the negativity? Who's wrong?
Speaker 5: If things are going along well and they're talking about
Speaker 5: things going badly, I would say their credibility is more
Speaker 5: on the line as opposed to what the truth is
Speaker 5: as far as what's coming out of the Trump administration.
Speaker 5: But again, they have to throw these digs in there.
Speaker 5: The latest expansion of his tariff regime, let me see
Speaker 5: the proposal has been subject to intense lobbying campaign by
Speaker 5: Detroit's legacy automakers. Trump originally said last month that the
Speaker 5: heavy duty truck levies would start October the first, but
Speaker 5: that timeline slipped as officials heard appeals from companies concerned
Speaker 5: about the impact. Again, you adjust what you're doing based
Speaker 5: on the new information, data and progress of the talks.
Speaker 5: It's kind of almost like a football game. You go
Speaker 5: in with a particular game plan, you say that this
Speaker 5: is how we're going to go, and this is what
Speaker 5: the plays we're going to run in the first quarter.
Speaker 5: This is the defense that we're going to be using
Speaker 5: against what we anticipate the other team to do. But
Speaker 5: once you get on the field and things happen, you
Speaker 5: don't keep with the game plan if it ain't working,
Speaker 5: so you make adjustments. That's why you have during the halftime.
Speaker 5: You see sometimes in some of these games where the
Speaker 5: momentum is going in one way and because of adjustments
Speaker 5: done during halftime, the momentum switches the other way. So
Speaker 5: it's you know, like I said, it's like a football game.
Speaker 5: You adjust to what is going on. If they're doing
Speaker 5: certain things that you don't have a defense, you adjust
Speaker 5: your defense to maybe counterbalance that. If things aren't working
Speaker 5: as far as your offense is concerned, if your running
Speaker 5: game isn't doing well, then you switch to maybe a
Speaker 5: run pass the offense, play action passes, staying not staying
Speaker 5: in the pocket, rolling out, doing different things counterplace. All
Speaker 5: these kinds of things that you put into place in
Speaker 5: order to adjust your game plan to make a success.
Speaker 5: And this again is what's going on here. Beginning November one,
Speaker 5: twenty twenty five, all medium and heavy duty trucks coming
Speaker 5: into the United States from other countries will be tariffed
Speaker 5: at the rate of twenty five percent, the president posted
Speaker 5: October the sixth, without offering further details. Trump's announcement is
Speaker 5: tied to a probe launched in April by the Commerce
Speaker 5: Department into heavy truck imports. That investigation conducted under Section
Speaker 5: two thirty two of the Trade Expansion Act. The imposition
Speaker 5: of import taxes on goods deemed critical to national security.
Speaker 5: Our automobile manufacturers, our truck manufacturers, our American jobs are
Speaker 5: a matter of national security. And the stronger our businesses are,
Speaker 5: the better that we will be able to have commerce
Speaker 5: within this country and be able to have a strong economy.
Speaker 5: So it is a national emergency the fact that you
Speaker 5: put these in place. And again, if they don't want
Speaker 5: the tariffs on their products, then reduce your tariffs on
Speaker 5: stuff coming into your country so that we can balance
Speaker 5: out this trade and come to a mutual understanding. So
Speaker 5: again the ball is in their court. If they don't
Speaker 5: want twenty five percent increases on their trucks coming into
Speaker 5: the United States, then they can lower their prices and
Speaker 5: lower their tariffs. Trump's announcement, let's see tried the probe
Speaker 5: focused on medium and heavy duty trucks weighing more than
Speaker 5: ten thousand pounds, as well as parts, with Commerce stating
Speaker 5: that the smaller number of foreign suppliers made up the
Speaker 5: bulk of US imports due to predatory trade practices. One
Speaker 5: of the things, again Donald Trump pulling back the curtain
Speaker 5: and talking about certain things which had been going on
Speaker 5: for years. All of a sudden, you see how many
Speaker 5: companies or how much business has gone overseas, the manufacturing
Speaker 5: and stuff that we need here in the United States.
Speaker 5: How our Congress, Senate and presidents at the time allowed
Speaker 5: all these jobs to go overseas at at the cost
Speaker 5: of our businesses, our manufacturing businesses here in the United States.
Speaker 5: So trying to pull that back now, mind you, this
Speaker 5: is something remember when Trump first became president, or around
Speaker 5: the time that Trump was running in twenty sixteen and
Speaker 5: Obama was out.
Speaker 4: There says, what are you going to do?
Speaker 5: Wave a magic wand and have all these manufacturing jobs
Speaker 5: come back to the United States. It's never going to happen. Well, Barry,
Speaker 5: don't you get tired of being right all the time?
Speaker 5: Because it certainly is headed in that direction. We're bringing
Speaker 5: a lot of manufacturing jobs back to the United States
Speaker 5: and beefing up the automobiles businesses and the manufacturing in
Speaker 5: this country. The duties threatening an industry already reeling impacts
Speaker 5: from terriffs on steel, aluminum as well as tighter environmental regulations.
Speaker 5: Now again they have to throw this in on environmental regulations.
Speaker 5: A lot of these regulations that have been rolled back
Speaker 5: and stuff were not a matter of reality, and the
Speaker 5: fact that our businesses were suffering and our companies were
Speaker 5: being fined because of these unrealistic expectations was a drain
Speaker 5: on these companies and for no really benefit as far
Speaker 5: as the environment is concerned, because some of these regulations
Speaker 5: were ridiculous. And I point out the fact that again
Speaker 5: you take you know, when you're talking about environmental and
Speaker 5: talking about pollution, look at a truck. It takes sixty
Speaker 5: trucks today to equal the emissions of one truck back
Speaker 5: in nineteen eighty eight. That's how far we've come in
Speaker 5: terms of pollution control, pollution improvement, and eliminating of pollutants
Speaker 5: going into the air. Tailpipe emissions on cars are about
Speaker 5: ninety something around the range of ninety nine percent cleaner
Speaker 5: than what they were back in the beginning of the
Speaker 5: nineteen nineties. So we have come a long way, and
Speaker 5: there's still room to go, but we're heading in the
Speaker 5: right direction. Trump's planning terraff on import heavy duty trucks
Speaker 5: are a huge win for American auto workers and US manufacturing,
Speaker 5: according to Nick Aya Cavello, the Coalition for Prosperous Prosperous America. Now,
Speaker 5: of course they have to throw in here again, this
Speaker 5: is a bloomberg artic, a protectionist group. Well, if you
Speaker 5: are an American company, and if you are an American president,
Speaker 5: don't you want your company country to do well, and
Speaker 5: shouldn't you be doing things that protect the workers, protect
Speaker 5: your industries, protect your manufacturing. How was that? That's pro American?
Speaker 5: That's not protectionists. Pick this up in a little bit more.

Speaker 5: how's about some How's about some more good news?
Speaker 4: Okay?
Speaker 5: US chicken prices fall eighteen percent from summer peak. What
Speaker 5: they said inflation was going to continue, the terrorists, We're
Speaker 5: going to throw us into a recession. That all this stuff,
Speaker 5: the economic policies of this administration weren't going to be
Speaker 5: working again, don't theyk it't tired of being right all
Speaker 5: the time. As Americans had heated the catchphrase and indeed
Speaker 5: eight more chicken during beef spike, poultry producers raked in
Speaker 5: profits now falling chicken prices may be bringing that rally
Speaker 5: to an end. Spot Chicken prices in the US have
Speaker 5: fallen eighteen percent since the summer barbecue season peak. At
Speaker 5: key production indicators suggest supply is finally catching up with
Speaker 5: booming consumer demand. Some of the largest global meat producers,
Speaker 5: including JBS, Tyson.
Speaker 4: Foods and Cargill, Inc.
Speaker 5: Have leaned on poultry profits to cushion losses of their
Speaker 5: beef business, which have been impacted by the worst US
Speaker 5: cattle shortage in decades. So when you hear people talking
Speaker 5: about high beef prices, and I've had this conversation with
Speaker 5: some people, kind of a side note. Two weekends ago,
Speaker 5: there was a fiftieth fiftieth reunion of my class from
Speaker 5: Xavier University from nineteen seventy five, and some of the
Speaker 5: people that I ran into there heard that I was
Speaker 5: a radio talk show host. Went to my Facebook page
Speaker 5: and a couple of the back came up to me said,
Speaker 5: are you really that conservative? Yeah, and probably not as
Speaker 5: much as I put forth on Facebook. I can be
Speaker 5: a little bit more than that. Why and started talking
Speaker 5: about they wanted to talk about inflation. They said, oh,
Speaker 5: you know, we're paying all kinds of money for beef,
Speaker 5: and I said, well, you know there's alternatives to that.
Speaker 5: You can do certain other things, and it ain't a
Speaker 5: result of And of course they were saying, well, you know,
Speaker 5: beef prices are up because of tariffs. I said, no,
Speaker 5: if you look at our cattle, if you go dig
Speaker 5: into the numbers as I have done, you see that
Speaker 5: our cattle herds are at the levels of where they
Speaker 5: were back in the fifties and sixties, and so with
Speaker 5: the increase in population, they're not producing enough a cattle
Speaker 5: and they're not producing enough beef. This is starting to
Speaker 5: change a little bit, but again we are still doing
Speaker 5: some imports from other countries. But again this is a
Speaker 5: matter of the shortage in the United States has nothing
Speaker 5: to do with terriffs. It has more to do with
Speaker 5: not having the proper supply for the demand. And here
Speaker 5: it is showing this out the worst US cattle shortage
Speaker 5: in decades. A turn in chickens, futures or fortunes could
Speaker 5: leave companies more exposed to the prolonged beef slump, which
Speaker 5: isn't expected to improve significantly before twenty twenty eight. Well,
Speaker 5: I would suggest then to those countries companies rather that
Speaker 5: if they're having these problems, hey, you know, get.
Speaker 4: The cattle together, you know, hook up.
Speaker 5: The males, you know, with the females, and maybe produce
Speaker 5: a little bit more.
Speaker 4: You know. It's kind of a simple solution. You know.
Speaker 4: You've got to herd.
Speaker 5: You've got males, you got females, you got you know, cows,
Speaker 5: and you got you know whatever. Just go ahead and
Speaker 5: do some I don't know, take them with cattle singles,
Speaker 5: bar or something, I don't know, but improve your cattle production.
Speaker 5: US has seen an increase in the number of chicken plays,
Speaker 5: improved egg fertility rates, and seasonally strong poultry slaughtering numbers,
Speaker 5: all pointing to rising meat supply. The Department of Agricultures.
Speaker 5: So again you have higher meat supply, the chicken, higher supplies,
Speaker 5: the demand is there, prices start coming down. According to
Speaker 5: Banco Bradesco BBI analysts Enrique were Stolen and Pedro Fontana
Speaker 5: said in a note, we are seeing signs that the
Speaker 5: cycle could be heading down to a supply bottlenecks appearing
Speaker 5: to have increasingly solved. Meat suppliers shares have been under
Speaker 5: pressure too. JBS, the world's largest meat producer, has lost
Speaker 5: eighteen percent over the past month and falling to the
Speaker 5: lowess since July twenty twenty three. Pilgrim's Pride Corporation, which
Speaker 5: is controlled by JBS Tyson andrig Mar Frigg Global Foods
Speaker 5: Essay have also seen clients. So when you start adjusting
Speaker 5: your supply, and you start increasing your supply and the
Speaker 5: demand is there, then the prices start coming down. And
Speaker 5: as we've seen, people have adjusted if meat prices, if
Speaker 5: stake prices, if beef prices are.
Speaker 4: High, they switch to chicken.
Speaker 5: And when you switch to chicken, you know, in some
Speaker 5: cases a little bit healthier for you. And it's just
Speaker 5: a matter of adjusting your family diet or grocery purchases based.
Speaker 4: On what's available.
Speaker 5: And as we've seen, we've seen in certain areas where
Speaker 5: certain prices have been have gone up, people have stopped
Speaker 5: buying those products and then all of a sudden, miraculously,
Speaker 5: those prices start coming down. They start adjusting their game plan,
Speaker 5: if you will, back to what the market is doing
Speaker 5: and adjusting that accordingly. Let's take a look real quick
Speaker 5: at the oil and gas prices before we have to
Speaker 5: scoot out the door.
Speaker 4: Here.
Speaker 5: West Texas Intermediate CRUED currently is a sixty two dollars
Speaker 5: and seventy two cents a barrel. That is up almost well,
Speaker 5: actually a dollar or one point six percent or one
Speaker 5: point six oho percent. Brent crude currently is sixty six
Speaker 5: dollars and thirty nine cents. That is up almost a
Speaker 5: dollar or one point four to four percent. Now, just
Speaker 5: since January the twentieth, when Trump took office, West Texas
Speaker 5: intermediate crud is down fourteen dollars and seventeen cents a barrel,
Speaker 5: That is a eighteen percent decrease. Brent crude currently at
Speaker 5: sixty six thirty nine is down thirteen dollars and fifty
Speaker 5: one cents, or a seventeen percent decline in refiner or
Speaker 5: in oil prices. And I keep talking about the fact
Speaker 5: that I would like to see gas prices adjust accordingly,
Speaker 5: because again, if you've got oil going into the refinery
Speaker 5: at a cheaper price the refining process, Now there are
Speaker 5: certain increases in chemicals and stuff that they do at
Speaker 5: the refining process in order to produce gas, heating oil,
Speaker 5: and diesel. Those cost factors go into place, but they
Speaker 5: have been offset by the input in terms of oil prices.
Speaker 5: And I would like to see and we should be
Speaker 5: seeing or should have seen, about a ten percent or
Speaker 5: so decrease in my opinion as far as gas and
Speaker 5: diesel is concerned. And we're starting to see a little
Speaker 5: bit of break in that because current national average of
Speaker 5: gasoline had been riding around three. Now this is across
Speaker 5: the board writing around three dollars and fourteen cents and
Speaker 5: above on average per gallon throughout the United States. We
Speaker 5: are seeing that coming down. It's now down around three
Speaker 5: dollars and eleven cents thereabouts. Now, this is kind of
Speaker 5: that number is a little bit inaccurate, if you will,
Speaker 5: because when you look at the gasoline prices in California,
Speaker 5: when you look at gasoline prices in California averaging across
Speaker 5: the board California at four dollars and sixty six cents
Speaker 5: a gallon, that is going to throw off the national
Speaker 5: average because if you look at a state like Oklahoma,
Speaker 5: their average gasoline prices in that state are two dollars
Speaker 5: and sixty cents. California compared to Oklahoma is two dollars
Speaker 5: and six cents higher per gallon. We're talking about gasoline,
Speaker 5: and because of the restrictions, because of the stupidity of
Speaker 5: California with all the they basically have their own market
Speaker 5: over there where they require certain additives to the individual
Speaker 5: gasoline in order for pollution control, and this is driving
Speaker 5: up the prices there. Plus any of the this requires
Speaker 5: special refining, which some of these refiners in California are
Speaker 5: shutting down because of the environmental restrictions from California. So
Speaker 5: the supply that they have, they're putting the restrictions and
Speaker 5: additives on the gasoline. And this movement over there that
Speaker 5: they want to eliminate gas internal combustion engines by twenty
Speaker 5: thirty five is putting pressure on the prices over there.
Speaker 5: And then with all this environmental stuff that they've done
Speaker 5: over the last twenty thirty years or so, the wildfires
Speaker 5: in twenty twenty reduced all of their advancement as far
Speaker 5: as clean air, eliminated everything they did done up until
Speaker 5: twenty twenty. Then when you throw on top of that
Speaker 5: the fires and the pollution were caused back in January
Speaker 5: in Los Angeles.
Speaker 4: That further pushed that back. So if you just have left.
Speaker 5: Gasoline alone and those pollution controls and controlled your wildfires
Speaker 5: and controlled your forestation out there, you'd have been better
Speaker 5: off out there in California as far as pollution is concerned.
Speaker 5: But again, that would make you know, that would require
Speaker 5: some common sense and some business thinking and stop liberal
Speaker 5: nonsense on the part of Gavin Newsom and the nuts
Speaker 5: out there in California.
Speaker 4: Well, folks, that does it for US states.
