1 00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:04,760 Speaker 1: A head on an American Sunrise early edition, an army 2 00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: sergeant opens fire on five of his fellow soldiers at 3 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: Fort Store, Georgia. Some other soldiers rush to tackle him, 4 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:13,120 Speaker 1: and the alleged shooters in custody. 5 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:15,800 Speaker 2: His five victims are expected to survive. 6 00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,919 Speaker 1: The suddenly interested in the Epstein case, Democrats float a 7 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:26,079 Speaker 1: story that Vice President Advance, FBI Director Pttel, and White 8 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 1: House Chief of Staff Suzie Wilds were planning a big 9 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: meeting to discuss the Trump team's next move in the 10 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 1: Epstein saga. Vice President Advance calls the story bogus. The 11 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: cracking down President Trump is warning that federal authorities may 12 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 1: take more control of Washington, d C. 13 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 2: If the city's. 14 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:49,480 Speaker 1: Crime problem doesn't get any better. Speaking of law and order, 15 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 1: President Trump floats the idea of having the FBI find 16 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 1: and bring back the runaway Texas Democrats who have fled 17 00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: the lone Star state in hopes of blocking a redistricting plan, 18 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,400 Speaker 1: and Apple CEO Tim Cook comes to the White House 19 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,479 Speaker 1: bearing gifts, in this case hundreds of billions of dollars 20 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:12,679 Speaker 1: in new manufacturing in the US, including some key components 21 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,320 Speaker 1: on the iPhone that will be American made. American Sunrise 22 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: Early Edition begins now. 23 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 3: Welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition, the show where faith, freedom, 24 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,119 Speaker 3: and the values that built this nation takes center. 25 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:31,839 Speaker 2: Stack your good, thieves and bad deeds. 26 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: That's how we're gonna judge you. 27 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 3: Join host Jake Novak is he breaks down the stories 28 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 3: that match. 29 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: He will be letting the public know regularly what we 30 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: have found. 31 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 3: American Sunrise Early Edition with your host Jake Novak starts now. 32 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: Hi, I am Jack Novak. Welcome to this Thursday and 33 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early Edition. A lot of stories breaking and developing. 34 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: Overnight I told you about the Fort Stewart shooting, which 35 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: of course was yesterday afternoon. 36 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 2: Still looking at the condition of those victims. 37 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: We have a name of the shooter according to the authorities, 38 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: Cornelius Radford. Will find out what his motivation was maybe, 39 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: but he is in custody and he is not injured 40 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: in any way, so we'll find out about that. And 41 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: also we heard overnight at least the Kremlin saying that 42 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 1: there will be a meeting between President Donald Trump and 43 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia in the coming days. 44 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: That's all we know so far. So we're looking at 45 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: those two developments right now. But joining us right now 46 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 1: to talk about some of the more enduring stories that 47 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: we really need to keep checking up on is RMG 48 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 1: Research President and the guy behind that Politan news network 49 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: at service, I should say, Scott Rasmussen. Scott, Look, you know, 50 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 1: we've got all these developing stories, but many of us, 51 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: and I think a lot of our viewers would agree 52 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: that the big story for so many Americans is these 53 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: continuing Are these continuing revelations and evidence being released about 54 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: the Russia Gate collusion? 55 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 2: Who was involved? 56 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: President Obama's involvement, Hillary Clinton's involvement, James Clapper, John Brennan, 57 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: on and on down the line. But as someone who 58 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: really understands the American voter, is this something that you. 59 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 2: Think that will move the needle as. 60 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: Far as voting is concerned. I'm not saying it's not 61 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: going to fire up a lot of people, but will. 62 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,119 Speaker 2: It change votes? Will it motivate people to vote? 63 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:17,839 Speaker 1: I mean, in your experience, I know you probably haven't 64 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: done a major pull in it yet, but in your experience, 65 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: how do these scandals play out? 66 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 4: It's likely to have less of an impact than many 67 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 4: of your viewers are hoping for or expecting. Let's start 68 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 4: with a very basic fact. Only twenty two percent of 69 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 4: Democrats know that Hillary Clinton's campaign paid for the dossier 70 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 4: that created the whole dynamic. We we live in a 71 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 4: world where people have different news sources, and we live 72 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 4: in a world. You know, there's a theory that scientists 73 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 4: float that when you look at something, only twenty percent 74 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 4: of what you see comes in through your eyes. Eighty 75 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 4: percent comes from what you expect to see your brain 76 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 4: to be efficient fills in the apps. 77 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 5: So if you're a Democrat and you look at all 78 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 5: of this, you. 79 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 4: Think the Republicans are just lying, they're making stuff up 80 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 4: because we've never heard of any of these things. And 81 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 4: if you're a Republican, you're looking at just the opposite. 82 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 4: You know what, people are skeptical about politics. Fifty two 83 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 4: percent of voters think Barack Obama was probably somewhat involved, 84 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 4: but well, he's a politician. So unless there are major, 85 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 4: major revelations, I don't think this is going to move 86 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 4: the needle a lot. It might fire up some Republican 87 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 4: turnout in the midterms, which obviously is significant. 88 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll talk a little about the in terms a 89 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 2: little bit later. 90 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: But this is another reason why I think there may 91 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: be an impetus for indictments, because at least then it'll 92 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: bleed into all the news sources. Again, it'll be very 93 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: it'll be spun in a very different way compared to 94 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: what you see on different channels and what you see 95 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: in different websites. 96 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 2: But that might be one of the indus inpetus for. 97 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 4: This, Jake, I got to tell you, you know, last year, 98 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 4: the Democrats were set saying if Donald Trump is indicted, it. 99 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 5: Will change everything. It didn't. 100 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 4: We did a poll right before the jury decided, right 101 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 4: after the number of people who had the view that 102 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 4: Donald Trump was less ethical than most politicians didn't move 103 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 4: a single point. It was already baked in. I suspect 104 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 4: we'll see the same thing. Yes, it might have some 105 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 4: news coverage impact, but again, this is something that is 106 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 4: going to be really hard to break through because this 107 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 4: is the behavior people expect of politicians. 108 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: All right, So there's your warning to do this investigation. 109 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: It's to do it for justice. That that's you know, 110 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: if you're really looking for that, not to move the polls, 111 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: because you got to do it independent of politics and 112 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 1: try to go from the justice angle of it, and listen, 113 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: this sounds like they're building a pretty good case, but 114 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: it may not be anything for the polls, and we 115 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 1: should all be aware of that. 116 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 5: Scott. 117 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: The other big enduring story of these last few weeks 118 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 1: is this Texas redistricting fight. You know, we all know 119 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 1: about the Democrat's hypocrisy over this this you know, Republican 120 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 1: hypocrisy too. Hypocrisy and politics go hand in hand. But again, 121 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: just to remind everyone, the Democrats have gerrymandered so many 122 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: blue states for themselves, and they've done mid decade redistricting 123 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 1: stuff too. The Democrats have in fact, they've did it first. 124 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: So we can point fingers all day. But I'd like 125 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: to expand on something you to expand on something I 126 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: saw you right, which is that this scandal is reminding us, 127 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: or at least the educating us for the first time 128 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: for those of us who haven't been paying attention, that 129 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 1: the politicians choose their voters, not the other way around. 130 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 2: What do you mean by that. 131 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 4: Right when you get to draw the districts the way 132 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 4: they are right now, the politicians draw districts. 133 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 5: We see that in all the news stories. 134 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 4: Now, well, if we draw this map, our state will 135 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 4: have eight Republicans instead of six. They are designing the 136 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 4: maps to reflect the outcome they want. 137 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 5: Why does this matter. 138 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 4: It's cutting the voters completely out of the loop. In 139 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 4: the last forty years, taking all the elections combined, when 140 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 4: an incumbent has run for reelection, they win ninety four 141 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 4: percent of the time. What this really means is that 142 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 4: for most Americans, they don't get to choose their congressman. 143 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 4: There's not really a big incentive to vote, and it's 144 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 4: cutting the voters out. That to me is the biggest 145 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 4: shame of all of this. I've done some other writing. 146 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 4: I stand with George Washington and James Madison and think 147 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 4: we should have much much smaller congressional districts than given 148 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 4: the behavior of politicians today. Probably have some kind of 149 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 4: proportional representation to make sure that in a state like Massachusetts, 150 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 4: if a third of the voters cast their ballot for 151 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 4: a Republican, a third of the representatives would be a Republican. 152 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 4: But we're a long way from that, and this is 153 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 4: really an indictment of our political system right now. 154 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 5: The fact that we're having these wars. 155 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, the way that they draw these districts to make 156 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: sure they have a favorable outcome. Reminds me of the way, 157 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: you know, Alabama, a scheduling Central Connecticut state state, those 158 00:07:58,160 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: cupcake games. 159 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 2: I think that's the that's their whole life. 160 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's talk about another race. The New York mayor's 161 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: race is exposing what many of us have known for 162 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: a long time, which is that the far left. I 163 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: don't like to call them progressive, that's my personal opinion. 164 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: I call them regressive because communism is an old idea 165 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: that's killed tens of millions, probably billions of people. I 166 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: don't understand why that is a progressive idea. It's old 167 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: and it didn't work. 168 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 2: But anyway, it. 169 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: Is exposing the fact that there's a civil war of 170 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: some sorts in the Democratic Party. I won't call the 171 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: people who are on the other side of Zoa Mamdani 172 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: moderate by any means compared to the most of the country. 173 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 1: But compared to Mamdani, you have other Democrats, including many 174 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: who are sitting on the sidelines not endorsing him, who 175 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: are don't like where he's going, don't like his ideas, 176 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 1: and feel that his victory if he does win in 177 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: New York will hurt the party nationally. Again, what are 178 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: you seeing on that score? I mean, when you do polling, 179 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: is there a down the middle split between people who 180 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: identify as Democrats between these kinds of ideas like communism 181 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: and stuff like that that Mamdanni proposes, or is it 182 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: really still more a majority, more in the sort of 183 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: normal side what we expect from Democrats. 184 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 2: I'll say over the last several decades. 185 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 4: Well, Jake, let me put it in perspective, and every 186 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 4: survey we've done since October of twenty twenty, we asked 187 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 4: a question, do you have if you had a choice 188 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 4: between four presidential candidates, would you prefer one on equal character, 189 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 4: equal competence. Would you prefer one who has policies like 190 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 4: Donald Trump, a traditional Republican, traditional Democrat, or and we've 191 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,079 Speaker 4: asked it now both ways, with somebody like Bernie Sanders 192 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 4: or AOC for years, going all the way back five 193 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,839 Speaker 4: years now. The Republican Civil War doesn't exist. It's an 194 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 4: overwhelmingly Republican preference for Trump like policies. But in every 195 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 4: one of those surveys, there was a split right down 196 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 4: the middle between the AOC Sanders Democrats and the more 197 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 4: traditional Democrats and they keep butting heads. I think what 198 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 4: we're seeing here is this is playing out. We're seeing 199 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 4: so several cities now begin to nominate some candidates who 200 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 4: are on the AOC side of that great divide in 201 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 4: the Democratic Party, and it's a gift to the Republicans. 202 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 4: I think that you'll see a lot of the imagery 203 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 4: from these candidates and perhaps the future mayor of New 204 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 4: York or likely the future mayor of New York. I'm 205 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 4: talking about issues that Democrats don't want to talk about 206 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 4: in the mid terms, and that's a huge deal. And 207 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 4: what it does is it forces the Democrats who are 208 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 4: caught in the middle of this to answer questions do 209 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 4: you agree with the New York mayor? Do you disagree 210 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 4: with the New York Mayor? And the minutes you have 211 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 4: that divide. The party is in a little bit of trouble. 212 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 4: I think the Democratic Party is going to be fighting 213 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 4: over this for as long as I'm polling. 214 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's there's always these kinds of movements within parties. 215 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 1: I always say people talk about third party stuff like 216 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 1: the Elon Musk thing. Actually history shows that changing a 217 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: party from within is much more effective. But I don't 218 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: think this is the chance that the Democrats naturally want 219 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: to see within their party and maybe they'll start voting 220 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 1: for a third party. Speaking of winning and losing and 221 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: how these things are going to affect the midterms, let's 222 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 1: talk about that just for a second, very early days. 223 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 1: We're still in August of twenty twenty five. Remember, everybody, 224 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: the midterm elections are not this year. It's next year, 225 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: twenty twenty sixth in November. But that said, this is 226 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: where we start seeing the green shoots, a little bit 227 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: of a sapling here and there, telling us where things 228 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: are going to grow and where they're going to go. 229 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: Where do you see things right now? As far as 230 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: the House and the Senators concerned? To remember, it's a 231 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: midterm election, no presidential election. So where are we right now? 232 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: At least where's the starting where's the starting line? 233 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,079 Speaker 4: Well, in all things midterm, the most important discussion is 234 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 4: about how is the economy performing. 235 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 5: James Carville had it right all those years ago. 236 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 4: People are feeling a little better about their finances than 237 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 4: they did earlier this year, but what matters is how 238 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 4: they feel about their personal finances at this time next year. 239 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 4: People are feeling positive Republicans are going to hold the Senate, 240 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 4: maybe at a seat or two. 241 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 5: If the economy goes the. 242 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 4: Other direction, well then we'll have a different type of discussion. 243 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 4: But the Senate looks pretty safe barring a real economic catastrophe. 244 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 4: Now the House always difficult to predict the House, especially 245 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 4: when the margins are so small, but this year it's 246 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 4: even harder because we have no idea what the districts 247 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 4: are going to look like. I would guess that right now, 248 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 4: barring any major redistricting changes, the Democrats are slightly favored 249 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 4: to take the House, but very slightly, and that's just 250 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,439 Speaker 4: because the out party always is more. 251 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 5: Enthusiastic about voting. 252 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 4: The party out of power has grievances, and they're more 253 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 4: likely to show up and get. 254 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 5: To the polls. 255 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,079 Speaker 4: But when you go on a district by district basis, 256 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 4: it's hard to see a lot of easy. 257 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,359 Speaker 5: Pickups for the Democrats. 258 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 4: There aren't a lot of seats that are held by 259 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 4: a Republican that were won by Kamalaha Eras, so we're in. 260 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 5: A very close race. There again comes down to the economy. 261 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 4: If the economy goes south in any way, if there's 262 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 4: even a mild mild recession early next year, the Democrats 263 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 4: win the House. If it's more upbeat, then the Republicans 264 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 4: have a shot. And again, let's figure out what the 265 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 4: districts are and how all of that looks before we 266 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 4: can give a final assessment. 267 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 268 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: Well, a lot of people in the mainstream media are 269 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 1: already a jumping the gun on that. The economic doom 270 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 1: and gloom on the headlines of all the liberal news 271 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: websites and TV stations. They are really jumping the gun 272 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: on it. But that's what you see if you open 273 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 1: up your into net this morning. Scott Rasmussen from RMG 274 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: Research Nepalitan News Service, thank you so much for joining us. 275 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: It's only Thursday, but have a great weekend you too. 276 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: Jake Okay, coming up. Ice tries a new tactic to 277 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: find illegal aliens and they have La Mayor Karen Bass 278 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: to thank for one new idea. Will and radical environmentalists 279 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 1: really do seem to want humanity to go away. If 280 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: you don't believe me, wait until you hear about a 281 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: brand new journal article in a medical journal begging doctors 282 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: to cut corners on your life. American Sunrise with Emily 283 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 1: Finn is going to be joining us. American Sunrise Early 284 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: Edition will be right back. 285 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 2: Welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition. Check out. 286 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: That's the best breeze we've had so far from that 287 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 1: White House live shot. That must be a really nice 288 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: breezy morning in Washington, DC this morning. Welcome again to 289 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: this Thursday edition of American Sunrise Early Edition. Thank you 290 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: so much for joining us on the getter and the 291 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 1: rumble chats and your comments looking at those. 292 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 2: Thank you so much. 293 00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: Joining us right now as she does every day at 294 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: this time Israel America's Voice contributor Emily Finn. And Emily, 295 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: I want to get your reaction to this nifty new 296 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 1: tactic being used by Ice. 297 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 2: We got some video here now. 298 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: You might remember a couple of weeks ago Mayor Karen 299 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: Bass went to MacArthur Park got all upset about ICE 300 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: agents looking for dangerous illegal aliens who were in the park, 301 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: and I think that gave them this idea. They pulled 302 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: up in a Penske rent a truck as you see 303 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: right there, looking like they were just a regular customer 304 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: at the home depot right near MacArthur Park, and then 305 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: they jumped out and went after some of those illegal aliens. 306 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 2: There a lot of. 307 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: Innovative ideas going on by the folks in ICE and 308 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 1: the folks in the Sheriff's department helping out. 309 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 2: You know, look, thank you, Karen Bass. You're giving us ideas. 310 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 1: You know, the fact that you show up at these places, 311 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: in these neighborhoods is just reinforcing the fact that this 312 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: is where we need to go and try a little 313 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 1: bit of trickeration like this. 314 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 6: Absolutely. I was reading a little bit more about this 315 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 6: area too, Jake, and this is a hotbed for MS 316 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 6: thirteen gang activity, and these are exactly the types of 317 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 6: people that Tom Holman said that ICE was going after 318 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 6: the criminals in our country. We want to get them, 319 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 6: get them out of here. I keep thinking about the 320 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 6: statistic that we discussed yesterday too, Jake. Seven hundred percent. 321 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 6: That's how much the attacks on ICE are up from 322 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 6: last year. I mean that it's just so shocking. So 323 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 6: of course they're having to get creative and having to 324 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 6: get innovative and having to drive a Penske truck in 325 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 6: to kind of hide themselves because they are being targeted. 326 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 6: There are people that are leaking information about ICE operations, 327 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 6: something that Tom Holman has said has been extraordinarily challenging 328 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 6: for them as they continue on with the Trump administration's 329 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 6: wishes here. So I think it's great to see them 330 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 6: getting a little creative with their tactics, but sad that 331 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 6: they have to do this. 332 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I like that this doesn't look very dangerous 333 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: and it also doesn't look like, you know, there's any 334 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: other people who are going to get hurt by it. 335 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 2: It's just a different way to operate. 336 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: Here's something speaking of operating that's completely different and I 337 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: think totally frightening. There's a new article in the Oxford 338 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: European Heart Journal that sounds the alarm about all the 339 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: carbon emissions. No, I'm not kidding, all the carbon emissions 340 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 1: that are produced from aortic valve replacement surgeries. This is 341 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 1: a common heart surgery all over the world, and it 342 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: urges doctors to consider other treatments instead of this surgery 343 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,439 Speaker 1: because it is so bad for the environment. Apparently has 344 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 1: a lot of admissions. Now, I can't think of a 345 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: scarier thing to put in a medical journal. I mean, 346 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: why not just kill, by the way, why not just 347 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 1: kill the patient that'll cut. 348 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:28,160 Speaker 2: Down on their emissions. 349 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: I mean, this is really are they even listening to 350 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 1: themselves right now. I mean, this is absolutely terrifying. 351 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 6: I can assure you, Jake, if I ever need heart surgery, 352 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 6: the last thing I will be thinking about is how 353 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 6: it's going to impact the environment. I mean, come on, 354 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 6: this is, like you said, this is a pretty scary 355 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 6: thing to put in a medical journal. We have way 356 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 6: more important things to think about that. There were scientists 357 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 6: that said that aliens are going to be coming in November. 358 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 6: We have a poll that is shifting the world is 359 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 6: going to end before any of this climate change stuff 360 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 6: even comes to fruition, in my opinion, So do the 361 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,880 Speaker 6: heart surgeries, keep people alive, keep doing the things that 362 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 6: the medical community needs. I don't know, this doesn't seem 363 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 6: like something that really needs to be focused on in 364 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 6: a medical journal. 365 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 5: Jake. Yeah. 366 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: And you know it's something else, Emily, you know something else. 367 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: It's also nothing new. Every pagan group and the environmentalist 368 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: groups out there act like they are a cult. They 369 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: always have like a religious cult, and every religious cult 370 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,919 Speaker 1: pagan group eventually turns to human sacrifice. 371 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 2: Look it up and here you go. 372 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 1: They don't want people to have children, and now they 373 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: want you to forego a life saving surgery for some 374 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: other treatment because of emissions. Emily Benn, thank you for 375 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: all of your emissions.

Coming up, Disney 401 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 1: is desperate to improve ESPN's sagging fortunes. 402 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 2: But will it's decision. 403 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: Yesterday to combine ESPN with the NFL network really pay off? 404 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: That story and Moving America are coming up next. When 405 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:18,679 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early Edition continues, It's a look at the 406 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: battery New York Harbor as we begin another trading day 407 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: on Wall Street, not far from where you are looking 408 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 1: right now at that live shot. It's take a look 409 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: at where the markets are going to begin today, and 410 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 1: we're looking at green across the board. A couple of 411 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 1: reasons for this one is the markets are relieved because 412 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: today the new tariff's go into effect. It's August seventh, 413 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 1: some new twists go into effect, and they're seeing now 414 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: that there have been a number of exceptions for some 415 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: computer chip companies. 416 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 2: That's what they were worried about. But they're also. 417 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,359 Speaker 1: Happy about what the Apple news that I'll talk about 418 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 1: in just a minute and a few other things. Is 419 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: look at also crude oil, which is up this morning, 420 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 1: but still now at the sixty four dollars a barrel 421 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,640 Speaker 1: level that is very very low priced for oil. Again, 422 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,400 Speaker 1: expect to see some relief at the game as pump. 423 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: If you live in the state that doesn't tax it, 424 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 1: tax it too bad. And now let's look at bitcoin, 425 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,199 Speaker 1: because we've had some movement there as well. We were 426 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 1: stuck at one fourteen for a couple of days. Now 427 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,439 Speaker 1: we're up to one sixteen. Still not back into that 428 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: one seventeen to one twenty one window that we were 429 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 1: in for a couple of weeks, but we're getting darn 430 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,159 Speaker 1: close for only three hundred and twenty nine. 431 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 2: Dollars away from getting back into that window. 432 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: So you see things are moving higher pretty much across 433 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: the board. 434 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 2: Right now on Wall Street, hey, Apple CEO Tim. 435 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 1: Cook and President Donald Trump announced that the company will 436 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 1: be spending an additional one hundred billion dollars on US 437 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: companies and suppliers over the next four years. That was 438 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 1: at the White House. A lot of you watch that 439 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: right here on Real America's Voice. 440 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 5: Now. 441 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: Apple says this will incentivize overseas companies other companies to 442 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,719 Speaker 1: buy more US made parts, not just the final product, 443 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 1: but parts. The commitment is on top of an already 444 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: five hundred billion dollar announcement that Apple made in February 445 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: about increasing its investment and activities here in the United States. 446 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: One of the most interesting aspects, by the way of 447 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: this program is that there will be a major partnership 448 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,360 Speaker 1: and expansion the Apple's going to be doing with Corning, 449 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: which makes the glasses for the glass for iPhones and 450 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: Apple watches and stuff like that. In Kentucky. Apple says 451 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:13,360 Speaker 1: all glass for iPhones sold anywhere, iPhones, Apple watches sold 452 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: all over the world, all that glass will now be 453 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: made in the United States at that Corning facility in Kentucky. 454 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: So hey, look, Grand Paul and Thomas Massey may be 455 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: given Donald Trump a hard time, but he's given them 456 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,679 Speaker 1: a big gift because this is a big gift to 457 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: the state of Kentucky. So that is an interesting little 458 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 1: caveat to this story. But there is still no deal 459 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: right now with India as far as the trade wars 460 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: are concerned. President Trump has now also doubled the tariffs 461 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: on Indian imports to fifty percent. Now he's talking about 462 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: it that will go into effects in a few weeks. 463 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: But he's telling them they're going to double it. Now 464 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: why is he doing this Because India continues to buy 465 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: either directly or through other avenues, oil from Russia and 466 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: President Trump wants to see Russian oil off a lot 467 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: of the markets, at least for our closest allies like India. Again, 468 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: the breaking news welding news overnight is at President Trump 469 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 1: and Vladimir Putin, according to the Kremlin, will be meeting 470 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: in the coming days face to face. We don't have 471 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: a lot more details besides that, but you can see 472 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: President Trump really getting tougher on Russia and its oil 473 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: trade right now. And India is unless they change their policies, 474 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: they're going to. 475 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:16,239 Speaker 2: Bear the front of it. 476 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: That is another interesting story from the media world, but 477 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: it's also a big business story. Disney is buying the 478 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 1: NFL network and it's going to combine it with its 479 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: ESPN channel. You know, Disney owns ABC and ESPN along 480 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 1: with all those other Disney properties. Now, in return, the NFL, 481 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: which owns the NFL Network, will get a ten percent 482 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: stake in ESPN. Now this sounds like a marriage made 483 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 1: in heaven. It makes sense ESPN heavy with sports content, 484 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: especially the NFL and the NFL Network, and on and 485 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: on down the line. But I have a word of 486 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: caution for the folks at Disney and for anyone who's 487 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 1: investing in Disney based on this investment. The NFL is 488 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: America's absolute most powerful entertainment addiction, rich, poor, white, black, 489 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: foreigner American born doesn't matter. The NFL is extremely popular. 490 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: But what is popular about the NFL The live games, 491 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 1: the warm up shows, the talk shows. The NFL Network 492 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 1: literally has a show called Good Morning Football. 493 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 2: All those shows. 494 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: I'm not saying they're not entertaining in some way or another, 495 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 1: but that is not anywhere near as popular as the 496 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,360 Speaker 1: live programming. And that is why the NFL network isn't 497 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 1: as big a cash cow as people thought it would be, 498 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: because they only have some live games on the NFL Network, 499 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: actually a very small number. It's the games we want 500 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: to watch, not all the warm up shows. I mean, 501 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: we'll watch it for a half hour, but not six hours, 502 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 1: and not six days a week, and then the game. 503 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: That's not what the public wants. That's not what the 504 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 1: market has been showing it likes. I don't know if 505 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,439 Speaker 1: ESPN is going to make is making such a smart 506 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: movie here by buying more chatter like this, buy more games. 507 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 2: That's great, but chatter. 508 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:48,479 Speaker 5: I don't know. 509 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 1: Maybe I'll be wrong.

I've reported on that here 527 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 1: for you here on Moving America in the last few 528 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: months to cut back on some of their EV production. 529 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 2: That's smart. 530 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 1: And it's also looking into adding third shifts at its 531 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: US plans to get more tariffree products to its customers. 532 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 2: Again, Honda not stupid. 533 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 1: They're looking at these numbers and it is adjusting and 534 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 1: this could be good for more jobs or at least 535 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: more overtime for a lot of the Honda workers here 536 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 1: in the United States. Okay, we now finally have a 537 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 1: list price for the twenty twenty six Chevy Corvette ZR 538 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 1: one X. Been talking a lot about this amazing vehicle 539 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: on this program. The coup will have a base price 540 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: of two hundred and seven thousand, three hundred and ninety 541 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 1: five dollars and the convertible will have a base price 542 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: of two hundred and seventeen thousand, three hundred and ninety 543 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 1: five dollars. Now, based on all the reviews, forget about 544 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: what I have to say. Based on all the reviews 545 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: by the car experts and the car magazines and websites, 546 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: this ZR one x is performing extremely well against much 547 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 1: more expensive brands. Many people, because of that are calling 548 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 1: the ZR one X a bargain because it's only at 549 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,199 Speaker 1: the two hundred thousand dollars range. It's less than half 550 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 1: the price of some of the cars it's competing against. 551 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: But it is the first ever GM car, by the way, 552 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: to list for more than two hundred thousand dollars. And Lord, 553 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: please make there be a day when I consider anything 554 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: at two hundred thousand dollars or more. 555 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 2: To be a bargain. 556 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 1: But that is what a lot of people are saying 557 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 1: about this amazing car, all right. Sometimes the mainstream media's 558 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 1: props come back to haunt it. 559 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 2: This is a problem about to show you. 560 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,679 Speaker 1: One of the key industry websites for auto Neews is 561 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: autonews dot com, and there you see it. 562 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 2: They have a graphic there every day. 563 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: It's very helpful actually, that shows the average marketed price 564 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,400 Speaker 1: of a car or truck in America, all the vehicles. 565 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 2: You can see right there. 566 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,679 Speaker 1: I say it a little bit under fifty thousand dollars, 567 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: and they tell you whether it's up or down for 568 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 1: the day. 569 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:44,679 Speaker 2: As you see there, it was. 570 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: Actually up zero point three percent just for that day, 571 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:51,120 Speaker 1: not much. And then they show you the change since 572 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: April first, against Sorry, that's the first graphic. Now here's 573 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 1: what I mean by coming back to buy it. Autonews 574 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:01,159 Speaker 1: is run by Cranes. It's a mainstream media operation, and 575 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,880 Speaker 1: they started this graphic using it to the April first day. 576 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 2: Can you guess why? 577 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 1: Because that is when that was the month that President 578 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: Trump announced all the tariffs. And I think that they 579 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 1: thought this graphic would be showing eye popping numbers like 580 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: twenty thirty percent increases in prices. 581 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,360 Speaker 2: And you can see from that graphic that I. 582 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: Just showed you only a zero point three percent increase 583 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:25,199 Speaker 1: in all vehicle prices in America since April, when the 584 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 1: month when those tarifs kicked in again. That kind of 585 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: is a backfiring to me, if I were the Trump administration, 586 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: I'd be publishing that number every day. I don't think 587 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 1: that's what Crane's and Auto News had in mind when 588 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: they started that graphic. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think 589 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: they were trying to stick it to them politically. 590 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 2: And it is backfired. 591 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: Okay, here's a question, are you good at naming new products? 592 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 1: Because Ford is looking for what it calls a nomenclature strategist. 593 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: That is, in other words, they're looking for people to 594 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: give names to some of their new cars and SUVs 595 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 1: that they that they have on the production line. Cool 596 00:28:56,240 --> 00:29:00,479 Speaker 1: names like Bronco, like Maverick, like the F one fifty Raptor, 597 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: but they don't want Spoiler Alert is another Edseel. I 598 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: don't know who would Ford decided to call it the EDSIL. 599 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: I think it was Henry Ford himself naming it after 600 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: his son. Not only was that a bad car, but 601 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: it is still like a punchline. If you're a certain 602 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,959 Speaker 1: age in America, the word Edsel makes you laugh as 603 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: soon as you hear it. So if you want to 604 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,239 Speaker 1: name a car Edseel, don't apply for that job. Think 605 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: about Bronco, raped or stuff like that. You're good at it. 606 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 1: Inquire within at Ford, All right, coming up? Is there 607 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: anything that we're trying to do to fix education in America? 608 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: Is there anything that we're trying to do to fix 609 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: the whole country gonna work if we don't fix education. 610 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:35,719 Speaker 2: First, I'm gonna talk about that. 611 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk about some solutions with someone who's been 612 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: making that now his entire life's mission. When American Sunrise 613 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: Early edition comes right back, It's Thursday, August seventh. 614 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 2: Here this morning's top story. 615 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: As an army sergeant opens fire on five of his 616 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: fellow soldiers at Fort Stewart, Georgia. Some other soldiers rush 617 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 1: to tackle him, and the alleged shooter is in custody. 618 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 1: His five victims are expected to survive. The suddenly interested 619 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 1: in the Epstein case, Democrats flowed a story that Vice 620 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: President Advance, FBI Director Patel, and White House Chief of 621 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: Staff Susie Wilds were planning a meeting to discuss the 622 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: Trump team's next move in the Epstein saga conspiracy. Well, 623 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 1: Vice President Advance calls the story totally fogus. Apple CEO 624 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 1: Tim Cook comes to the White House bearing gifts, in 625 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: this case, hundreds of billions of dollars in new manufacturing 626 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: in the US, including some key components of the iPhone 627 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 1: that will be American made in Kentucky. 628 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 2: And cracking down. 629 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: President Trump is warning that federal authorities may take more 630 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 1: control of Washington, d C. If the city's crime problem 631 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 1: doesn't get any better. American Sunrise Early Edition continues.

So wherever 637 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: you are in your day, thank you for joining us, 638 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 1: but especially those of you joining us live and commenting. 639 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: Joining us right now is Pastor Donald Eeson. He's the 640 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: president of CURE that stands for a Center for Urban 641 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 1: Renewal and Education. It's that letter E that really got 642 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,959 Speaker 1: my attention, because a renewal is a good thing to 643 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: be trying when it comes to our public education in 644 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: this country. Now, look, I talk about this all the time. 645 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 1: We can talk about racism in this country all we want, 646 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: but the real systemic racism that's still around. 647 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 2: I believe, is in the public school system. 648 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 1: Only in the public school system are Democrats really continuing 649 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 1: to be willing to let it continue to fail because 650 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: they feel like I guess, they have more allies in 651 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: the teachers' unions. And now is as bad as Baltimore, 652 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: But lately even President Trump has been giving Baltimore is 653 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: an example of what I was just talking about, because 654 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: Baltimore recently found out that in forty percent of their 655 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: public high schools, there isn't one single student who was 656 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: testing as proficient in math pastor Easton. This is a 657 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 1: This is the real systematic racism problem in America, isn't it. 658 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: This is where we need to stop talking about some 659 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,479 Speaker 1: of the other stuff going on, like what goes on 660 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 1: in Jean's commercial, and start addressing this. 661 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 2: Am I right? 662 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 7: You one under percent correct? Jack, Thank you so much 663 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 7: for having me on your show. Education is a huge 664 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 7: issue in our country. And I'm from Detroit and one 665 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 7: of the issues that you see is when it comes 666 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 7: to education. The statistics that you just mentioned, no one, 667 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 7: not one person is proficient in math and watch poord schools. 668 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 7: That says that Federal Department of Education has really failed 669 00:32:56,120 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 7: our students. It started in nineteen seventy nine and our 670 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:03,719 Speaker 7: scores have gone down since and so it's not working 671 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 7: for the American people, and parents are looking and you 672 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 7: can see why parents will be looking for a way 673 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 7: out because the school system is not working for them 674 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 7: now in most school systems. 675 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: You know, it could also I mean we're talking about policy, 676 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 1: and I know you mentioned nineteen seventy nine when we 677 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 1: created the Department of Education, and we'll talk more about 678 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 1: the new leadership there in just a moment. 679 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 2: But is this also. 680 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 1: About attitude more than anything else, the idea that people 681 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 1: of all political stripes in this country seem to be 682 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 1: okay with this. I mean, I know that there's people 683 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: who are outraged about it when their parents and their 684 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 1: kids are in a bad school system. But when I 685 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 1: talk to people on the street or at or community gathering, 686 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 1: I see them pounding the table about a lot of issues, 687 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: and a lot of them are very important. I'm not 688 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 1: discrediting any of it or throwing cold water on it, 689 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 1: But rarely do I see someone who's saying, like, oh 690 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 1: my god, the school only a couple of miles away 691 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: from me is putting out students who can't read. Or 692 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 1: I mean, is it an attitude thing that we need 693 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 1: to get people? I mean, I hate to get people 694 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: upset and angry. That's not I hate when people do 695 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 1: that in the news business. But maybe just to tell 696 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 1: people like this is as an urgent an issue as 697 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:13,280 Speaker 1: any other, maybe even more. I mean, we're talking about 698 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: billions of dollars, maybe trillions over the years, and we're 699 00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,920 Speaker 1: talking about thousands and thousands of kids just in your neighborhood. 700 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 7: Frankly, well, you know, it's a big issue. I don't 701 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 7: know if you're familiar with Thomas Soli wrote a book 702 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 7: back in twenty twenty called Charter School and Its Enemies, 703 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 7: and he said there are over all approximately one million 704 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,360 Speaker 7: students on waiting lists. So parents see it as a 705 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 7: big issue. And you're right, from the legislators or the 706 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 7: Democratic legislators kind of want to own the children. And 707 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 7: when you look at it from a scripture standpoint, the 708 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 7: Bible says parents raise up your child and the way 709 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 7: that should and when they are old, they will not 710 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 7: depart from it. It is the parents' responsibility to raise 711 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 7: their children. And really the public school system is partnering 712 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 7: with the parents. They don't own this student. They don't 713 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 7: own the child. The parents are the primary responsible person 714 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 7: for raising that student. And you can see that parents 715 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 7: are waking up and seeing something is wrong. 716 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:13,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. 717 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:18,720 Speaker 1: I love debunking mainstream media myths and lies and really 718 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: mainstream cultural lies in this country. And one of them 719 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,720 Speaker 1: is that the school voucher programs, that these school value 720 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 1: programs that are basically just for red Southern states, for 721 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:31,320 Speaker 1: religious fanatics. But let's talk about this brand new story 722 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 1: out of New Hampshire. That's not a southern state. That's 723 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 1: the state that's voted for Democrats in the presidential election, 724 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 1: at least we think they have. There might be some 725 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,440 Speaker 1: chicanery going on there, that's another story. 726 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,760 Speaker 2: But New Hampshire has recently. 727 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 1: Expanded the eligibility for certain families to get into a 728 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 1: school voucher program. Guess what, pastor Easton, It's sold out, 729 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 1: over subscribed in a minute. And I think that this 730 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 1: is another example of what you were just talking about. 731 00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 1: This is not just about some kind of trick to 732 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: steal the mind so that you can put it into 733 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,919 Speaker 1: a church school or just something that radical right wing 734 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 1: people care about. New Hampshire had an over subscription to 735 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:09,759 Speaker 1: their school that I mean, what does that tell you? 736 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 7: Well, I mean it's not surprising. As as we mentioned 737 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 7: earlier time of sold in this book over million over 738 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 7: million students on waiting lists, so it's not surprising that 739 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 7: it sold out almost immediately in one minute. I know 740 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 7: that program is set up in New Hampshire to increase 741 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 7: by twenty five percent once they reach a cab which 742 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 7: is a good thing to continue to increase it, but 743 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 7: parents will continue to look for options for their children 744 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 7: to get a better education, and that is one of 745 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:42,319 Speaker 7: the primary goals here in Detroit specifically. I know when 746 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,319 Speaker 7: you talk to parents, the number one thing is they 747 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:48,240 Speaker 7: want they want to put their students in safe schools 748 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 7: as well, and so that's what that all. That program 749 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 7: also allows them to take them out of school that 750 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 7: they feel is not safe and put them in a 751 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,360 Speaker 7: safe school. So I'm not surprised. 752 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, past Resent, I'm not here to demon people or 753 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 1: demonized folks, but I'm sorry you do have to talk 754 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 1: about the hurdle here, and that means I have to 755 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,440 Speaker 1: talk about the teachers unions in America led by people 756 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 1: like Randy Weingart, and she gets demonized and sometimes she 757 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,840 Speaker 1: deserves it and sometimes she doesn't. But I wonder if 758 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: this is even getting through their heads. Do they even 759 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: understand the point of view of a parent? And the 760 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,040 Speaker 1: reason why I'm asking the point of view about the 761 00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,239 Speaker 1: point of view of a parent is, you know, I 762 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,720 Speaker 1: know the history of the teachers' unions in this country, 763 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 1: and before the mid nineteen sixties, they were not like 764 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 1: an auto workers union or a factory union within that 765 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: way they are now. And what changed them was that 766 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 1: in the mid sixties here in New York, you started 767 00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 1: to have teachers getting attacked, often by parents. This was 768 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:45,800 Speaker 1: a definitely out of the ordinary thing, but of course 769 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 1: it really galvanized these unions. 770 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 2: They were being physically attacked in some cases. And that 771 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:51,400 Speaker 2: is why I believe. 772 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 1: The Teachers Union since then, because of the way they 773 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: were set up and the time that they were set 774 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: up and rejiggered. I should say, they are really not 775 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 1: really in partnership with parents, like you were talking about. 776 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,479 Speaker 1: They really see parents as enemies more than anything else. 777 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 1: I wonder if that's your experience as well. It just 778 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 1: feels like they're on the other side because they think 779 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:11,439 Speaker 1: that at the end of the day, we're against them 780 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,200 Speaker 1: and might even threaten them. 781 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 7: The administrative state has grown exponentially over the years. A 782 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 7: number of teachers have gone down, a number of students 783 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 7: have gone down, but the administrative state has increased, which 784 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 7: says that they are more about protecting themselves than protecting 785 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 7: and partnering with our students. So that is a big problem. 786 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 7: So that's why you see parents over the last several 787 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 7: years this big outcry about what's going on in their schools. 788 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,800 Speaker 7: I can remember when I was I was back in school. 789 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 7: I just want to say this from a ministry standpoint. 790 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 7: They gave us a Bible, there were some morality taught 791 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:54,440 Speaker 7: in schools. They've gone on a different track today, and 792 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 7: so absolutely the unions, and I don't like to deem 793 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 7: nize people either. However, the unions are or at least 794 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 7: appeared not to be on the side of the parents. 795 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 7: And since parents have the primary responsibility for raising their children, 796 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 7: they're really partnering with the parents, or they should be 797 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 7: partnering with the parents and listening to what the parents 798 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 7: have to say and what they want. 799 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 1: Pastor Let's talk about another person who's getting demonized these days, 800 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 1: and that is Secretary of Education Linda McMahon. They're basically 801 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,719 Speaker 1: getting on her because they are dismantling, as we know it, 802 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,319 Speaker 1: the Department of Education and getting rid of a lot 803 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 1: of the employees who, as you said, that department's been 804 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 1: around since nineteen seventy nine and our education quality in 805 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:42,360 Speaker 1: this country overall has not improved, certainly through no thanks 806 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 1: to the Department of Education in those few. 807 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,240 Speaker 2: Cases or schools where it has improved. 808 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 1: But you know what, she's being demonized. But here's what 809 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,520 Speaker 1: I see because I've been following what she's been doing. 810 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 1: I've been seeing her looking and visiting individual schools, alternative schools. 811 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: So she's been doing that quite a bit, looking at 812 00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 1: some of them, including one not far from my home 813 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,279 Speaker 1: here on Long Island that is an amazing place called 814 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 1: the Schoolhouse. 815 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 2: She's doing a bunch of things like this. 816 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: What would you tell her if you were in the 817 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,440 Speaker 1: room with her right now and say, here's what you 818 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:09,480 Speaker 1: should be also looking at. 819 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,440 Speaker 7: I would say, one, keep doing what you're doing. You 820 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,800 Speaker 7: can tell she cares about our students. She cares about 821 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:19,719 Speaker 7: our public school system. We want choice. She cares about 822 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 7: the parents having an opportunity for better education for their children. 823 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,400 Speaker 7: So I would tell her to continue going around the states, 824 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:30,800 Speaker 7: going around to the different states, having the conversations with 825 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 7: stick parents in local communities on what this mantle of 826 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 7: the Department of Education actually means, which means sending the 827 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 7: dollars back to the states, or the states having control 828 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:45,280 Speaker 7: of their education system. You know, before nineteen seventy nine, 829 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:49,879 Speaker 7: students will getting educated. So the Department of Education wasn't 830 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,399 Speaker 7: needed then, and it's I don't think it's needed now 831 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 7: to the great extent is being overrunning our states. States 832 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,759 Speaker 7: need more control than their schools because states know what 833 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:04,759 Speaker 7: they need. For example, here in Michigan, Detroit being at 834 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:08,239 Speaker 7: one time the auto industry capital of the world, Well 835 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 7: what do wash students. Students need here they need to 836 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,400 Speaker 7: learn in that area, and in other parts of the 837 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 7: country they should say, Iowa maybe is farming. I don't know, 838 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 7: but we just have to give more control back to 839 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 7: the states because it's just hard to run education over 840 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:23,799 Speaker 7: the entire country. From Washington, DC. 841 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I've always felt the Department of Education should be 842 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: merged with the Department of Labor. Let the people who 843 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:33,520 Speaker 1: are experts on employment and jobs tell the schools some 844 00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:34,879 Speaker 1: of the things that they might want to look into, 845 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 1: and not force it, but let them know that this 846 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:37,439 Speaker 1: is where things are going. 847 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:39,280 Speaker 2: That's really what should also happen. 848 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,439 Speaker 1: Pastor donnalleis and president of CURE, the Center for Urban 849 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:45,279 Speaker 1: Renewal and Education, thank you so much for joining us. 850 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 1: We're going to have you back on real soon, hopefully 851 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,840 Speaker 1: to talk about some improvements in education in America. Thank you, 852 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:53,480 Speaker 1: Thank you so much, Jake, thanks for having coming up. 853 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 1: Is Washington, DC about to become the first ever testing 854 00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 1: ground for a president trying to directly fights crime. DC 855 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,680 Speaker 1: area resident and hopefully not a crime victim. David Brody 856 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,439 Speaker 1: will join me to discuss that. When American Sunrise Early 857 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:21,280 Speaker 1: Edition comes right back, you're looking at. 858 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 2: A live shot of the White House. 859 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,279 Speaker 1: Here on American Sunrise Early Edition, you can see the 860 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 1: flag is blowing in the background, but not in the foreground. 861 00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 1: I'm always worried about the humidity in Washington, d C. 862 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,440 Speaker 1: I guess I'm a little bit over concerned about that. 863 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:36,880 Speaker 1: I should be more concerned about the crime in Washington, 864 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:39,440 Speaker 1: d C. Listen, it's not ever I can ever remember 865 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 1: time when in the actual district of Columbia there weren't 866 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 1: major crime concerns. I think it's gotten a lot better 867 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,560 Speaker 1: in some ways than it was thirty forty years ago, 868 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:50,000 Speaker 1: but apparently it's taking a turn for the worse in 869 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,360 Speaker 1: recent recent years. Joining us right now is David Brody, 870 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:54,799 Speaker 1: and I want to talk to him because he is 871 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 1: a DC area resident, hopefully not a DC area crime victim. 872 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 1: But I'm talking about maybe federalizing the cops doing something 873 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 1: because he was very rattled by that former. 874 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 2: Employee of DOGE who was. 875 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:10,319 Speaker 1: Jumped by some kind of gang of guys on the 876 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:13,920 Speaker 1: street not long ago and injured. Look, you know, to me, 877 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:17,359 Speaker 1: the issue in DC has always been that sure, it's 878 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:19,719 Speaker 1: you know they don't it's it's you know, they get 879 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,719 Speaker 1: three Electoral College votes. But it's really it is sort 880 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:24,880 Speaker 1: of fund It is completely funded by the federal government. 881 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,440 Speaker 1: They've always had a police force that was hit or miss. 882 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 1: I always thought it was a problem of accountability. You know, 883 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,400 Speaker 1: there was a mayor of d C, but usually it's 884 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 1: a one party city. You know, I have all these 885 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,400 Speaker 1: examples here. What you know, you're there, what are on 886 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 1: the ground. Is Is it as bad as it was 887 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 1: in the late seventies early eighties like I remember it? 888 00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 2: Or are we just back where we started? 889 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,879 Speaker 8: Well, first of all, when I say it's better, let's 890 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,319 Speaker 8: let's qualify better. Okay, I mean we're going to go 891 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 8: to back to Merriam Barry and some white powder and 892 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,440 Speaker 8: all that type of stuff. Okay, it's not that. 893 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:55,480 Speaker 1: Okay. 894 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 8: Actually a total violent crime down about thirty five percent 895 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 8: over last year, but juvenile crime is up. It's a 896 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 8: big problem. So that's some of the dynamic there. Look, 897 00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:10,479 Speaker 8: there's a lot to unpack here. First of all, Jake 898 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,840 Speaker 8: Let's be clear, Trump can easily just call him the 899 00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 8: National Guard. As a matter of fact, DC is the 900 00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:19,239 Speaker 8: only out of all the territory states and all that 901 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 8: it's the only one where the president they report to 902 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,480 Speaker 8: the President the DC National Guard. So he doesn't have 903 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 8: to go through mural battleser on the National Guard, on 904 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 8: the DC Police, it's different. He can do this under 905 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,560 Speaker 8: special circumstances for about thirty days. I say about it 906 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:35,360 Speaker 8: actually says in the statute Home Rule Acts has thirty days. 907 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:39,319 Speaker 8: He can call in the Metro DC Police and that's it. 908 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 2: Then he's done. Then he has to get an. 909 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 8: Act of Congress literally an Act of Congress to go 910 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,880 Speaker 8: forward after thirty days. So what I see what Trump 911 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:49,879 Speaker 8: doing here is once again, and it always filters back 912 00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:52,360 Speaker 8: to the art of the deal. Everything with Trump is 913 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 8: the art of the deal. It's all about negotiation, it's 914 00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:58,280 Speaker 8: all about a power play, it's all about staking after claim. 915 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 2: And this is what Trump is doing. He wants to 916 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 2: see movement, whether it. 917 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 8: Be from the DC City Council or just overall in 918 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,840 Speaker 8: general about making sure DC becomes quote great again. And 919 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,720 Speaker 8: the way he does that is he uses the bully 920 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,960 Speaker 8: pulpit to get a little bullyish, if you will, with 921 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 8: the folks in DC. Because here's the thing with Trump 922 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,200 Speaker 8: and the beauty of Trump, and this is the beauty 923 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 8: of the art. 924 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 2: Of the deal, is that he just might do it. 925 00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 5: They know it. 926 00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:28,360 Speaker 8: They know he'll do it because you know what, he 927 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 8: was on the roof the other day, So heck, what 928 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 8: the heck he'll do anything. I mean, this guy is 929 00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 8: one of a kind. So the point is is that 930 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 8: he knows where the leverage points are always and so 931 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,920 Speaker 8: I just think not that it's bluster, because bluster suggests 932 00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:42,440 Speaker 8: that he's not going to do anything. I think he 933 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:45,960 Speaker 8: will and can do something and will do something if 934 00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:48,919 Speaker 8: something doesn't move. But to get them to move, he's 935 00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:52,840 Speaker 8: got to start talking pretty provocatively. And this is definitely 936 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:53,719 Speaker 8: provocative talk. 937 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, and what a difference it is. I mean, again, 938 00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:59,080 Speaker 1: this continue do you talk about? Everything is the art 939 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:01,719 Speaker 1: of the deal. Much of what happens just keeps reminding 940 00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 1: me why this guy was able to win over the 941 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,920 Speaker 1: Republican Party first and then a majority of the American voters. 942 00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:08,239 Speaker 2: Remember George H. W. 943 00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,479 Speaker 1: Bush, George Bush Senior, talking about crime in DC, holding 944 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,080 Speaker 1: up a packet of crack cocaine that. 945 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,799 Speaker 2: He said this was. This was seized just a few 946 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 2: blocks from the White House. 947 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:19,520 Speaker 1: He was talking a talk, but nothing ever happened. He 948 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:23,319 Speaker 1: didn't ever threaten to federalize law enforcement in Washington, DC, 949 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:24,920 Speaker 1: and he certainly never did it. 950 00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 2: Love it or hate Trump. 951 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,479 Speaker 1: He does a lot of these things that he talks about, 952 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 1: and people like that action. 953 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:33,319 Speaker 8: Yeah, and just remember and not gonna be quick here. 954 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,720 Speaker 8: But of course during the campaign, we remember the famous 955 00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 8: line when he was talking to African American members and communities, 956 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 8: he come in and go, what the hell do you 957 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,640 Speaker 8: have to lose? I mean, this guy one of a kind. 958 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:47,920 Speaker 8: We're living We're living literally living history. Not like Hillary Clinton, 959 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 8: but we are living history. 960 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:53,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, listen, spoiler alert, voters like action, action, action, You're 961 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,080 Speaker 1: gonna get some more action in the next two hours. 962 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:59,840 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early edition comes back tomorrow.
