The President paid a personal visit to the 4 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: site of the big and expensive Federal Reserve renovation project, 5 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 1: but it's not really remodeling that's at the top of 6 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 1: his mind. Two top Senate Republicans are calling for a 7 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 1: special counsel to be named to look into unfolding revelations 8 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 1: about the Russia collusion hoax. Those two Senators, Lindsey Graham 9 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:37,879 Speaker 1: and John Cornyn, are both facing tough primary challenges next year, 10 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: so you can see just how important they believe this 11 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:46,160 Speaker 1: case is to the Republican base. The Justice Department interviews 12 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: longtime Jeffrey Epstein girlfriend is Lane Maxwell, but it seems 13 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: like everyone from House Speaker Mike Johnson to plenty of 14 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 1: folks on the left are asking whether anything. 15 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 2: She says can be trusted. 16 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: A major book pub is paying Joe Biden ten million 17 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: dollars for his memoirs. That's a lot less than the 18 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: deals Barack Obama and Bill Clinton made, but then again, 19 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: they actually had things they remembered. And wrestling star and 20 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: cultural icon Hulk Hogan has died. The Holkster made pro 21 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: wrestling a national fad, but he also created a lot 22 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: of controversy.

Right now is Jared Setman 42 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: to talk about all the harder news this week and 43 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: today especially, Jared, I want to start with that little 44 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 1: visit that had so had a big impact on Washington yesterday, 45 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 1: President Trump showing up at the Ecchos building. By the way, 46 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: that's the name of the building of the Federal Reserve, 47 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: that's their headquarters and of course the site of this 48 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:47,959 Speaker 1: big renovation project. 49 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 2: Look. 50 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: Of course, the real reason why President Trump was there 51 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: was to continue his pressure campaign on FED Shair J. 52 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 2: Powell to lower interest rates. 53 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: But in this clearly unrehearsed moment that you're about to see, 54 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: Chairman Powell was caught basically unprepared for what President's Trump 55 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 1: had to see. 56 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 2: You check it out. 57 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: They didn't exist or expanding them and a lot of 58 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: very expensive work, there's no question about it. And Tim 59 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 1: has been. 60 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 4: With me for a long time, and you're in charge 61 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 4: of the committee. 62 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 2: Indeed, one of the reason why I wanted to see 63 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 2: it was the overruns of the expenses. Wanted to figure 64 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 2: out why. 65 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, so we're. 66 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: Taking a look and it looks like it's about three 67 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 2: point one billion, went up a little bit or a lot, 68 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 2: so the two point seven is now three point one. 69 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, it just came out. 70 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I haven't heard that from anybody. Just said it 71 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 2: just came. 72 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 6: I noted about three point one as well. 73 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 2: It came from us. 74 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 4: Yes, I don't know who does that. You're including the 75 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 4: Martin renovation. 76 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 2: You just added the tire capital. You just said you 77 00:03:58,840 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 2: just added in a third build. 78 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 7: Is what that is. 79 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 2: That's a third building. It's a building that's being built. 80 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 2: I know it's been. It was built five years ago. 81 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 6: We finished Martin five years part of the old rule 82 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 6: so new. 83 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 5: So we're going to take a look. 84 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 4: We're going to see what's happening, and it's got a 85 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 4: long way. 86 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 2: Do you expect any more additional COURSEO. 87 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 6: Bones don't expect them. We're ready for him, but we 88 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 6: have a little bit of a reserve that we may use. 89 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 4: But no, we don't expect to be finished in twenty 90 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:30,239 Speaker 4: twenty seven. 91 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 2: We're well along as you can. 92 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 5: Seek. 93 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 4: Nice to take these off every once in a while 94 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 4: when we're not under too much danger. 95 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 1: Jared, that's a moment that only happens with President Trump. 96 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I really don't think that was rehearsed. I mean, 97 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: obviously President Trump was prepared with that piece of paper. 98 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: Jerome Powell wasn't I have to ask you, there are 99 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: a lot of people out there who are going to 100 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: respond to something like this Jared and say this isn't fair. 101 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: People who are working in government shouldn't have any of 102 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: these kinds of extra pressures. 103 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 2: Why not. 104 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 1: I've been working in the private sector my whole life, 105 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 1: and I have pressure from my employers and from the 106 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 1: people I'm trying to serve as their customers all the time. 107 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: If that's the worst pressure jrum Pale ever gets, considering 108 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: the prestige of his position, then he really should not complain. 109 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 5: No, he shouldn't. I mean, that's the problem with this 110 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 5: idea of this independent agency that's fully independent. I mean 111 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 5: nothing in the federal government should be fully independent. I mean, 112 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 5: after all, they work at the behest of the American 113 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 5: people and are elected representatives, so I think that they 114 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 5: have to answer questions too. They don't get to simply 115 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 5: be above everything in politics. The reality is the federal 116 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,280 Speaker 5: reserve policies have enormous impact on the every day lives 117 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 5: of Americans. It's very funny that President Trump is using 118 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 5: this message against federal reserves, very much like his hero 119 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 5: Andrew Jackson, who was very critical of the Second Bank 120 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 5: of the United States, which acted sort of as a 121 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 5: sort of precursor to the Federal Reserve. So history sort 122 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 5: of repeats itself. But the serious issue at stake here 123 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 5: is that President Trump thinks that without lowering interest rates, 124 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 5: he can't have the booming economy that he wants, that 125 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 5: he can't encourage more home buying in the United States, 126 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 5: and so there are very serious policies at stake here. Obviously, 127 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 5: President the President actually going to the Federal Reserve and 128 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 5: patting the chairman on the back is a little bit 129 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 5: of an unusual tactic to do so, but he's making 130 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 5: a political point to the American people that he wants 131 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 5: to change he thinks is important for the American economy, 132 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 5: and I think he has every right to do that. 133 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look, the President of the United States 134 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 1: is the only person in the federal government where the 135 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: people have directly elected him. Again, I know there's the 136 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: electoral college. We can get into the aspects of that 137 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: in another discussion. 138 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 2: But the idea that that. 139 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 1: Person who is really the one who's mostly directly accountable 140 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: to the people, of all the people in the federal government, 141 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: isn't checking up on some of the people who are 142 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: indemnified via different appointments and other things like that is 143 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: ludicrous to me. I also think the President United States 144 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,479 Speaker 1: should be getting and I know that they do. But 145 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,479 Speaker 1: I'm talking about a real serious discussion once in a 146 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: while with the Chief Justice of the United States, not 147 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 1: to pressure them to make a certain decision that he 148 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: particularly wants, but to ask them if they are considering 149 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: what the American people understand to be the law and 150 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: the Constitution and things like that. That isn't undue pressure. 151 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: That's basically having the kind of transparency and some form 152 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: of accountability for all of our government. This is not 153 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: an aristocracy that gets to run around like they're the 154 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:27,679 Speaker 1: Dukes of Norfolk. 155 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 2: Jarrett. 156 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: We had another interesting development yesterday. Senators Lindsey Graham and 157 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: John Cornyan, who I note here are both facing serious 158 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: challenges in their hopes to be re elected next year, 159 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: are the first two Senators to call for a special 160 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: prosecutor in this whole Russia collusion hoax and all the 161 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: information that's coming out from it. 162 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 2: This tells me two things. One is, listen the Republican base, 163 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 2: these people who they. 164 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: Believe may not be supporting them right now for their 165 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: upcoming Republican primaries might really like the fact that they 166 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: might take the lead on getting some account ability for this. 167 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: But also I think that there's a legitimate concern by 168 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: Republicans or people who are upset about this whole Russia 169 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: collusion oaks and the huge damage it did on this country, 170 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: are worried that people are going to get away with it. 171 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: I mean it really feels that way. 172 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, it does feel a way, especially given the scope 173 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 5: of what the scandal means for the country. I mean, honestly, 174 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 5: looking into the details as far as the reports have 175 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 5: been released by the Director of National Intelligence, I mean, 176 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 5: this would be this is bigger than Watergate. I mean, really, 177 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 5: when you look at the accusations at stake here, where 178 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 5: you have a potentially a president who basically work with 179 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 5: intelligence services to damage the next presidency of the United States, 180 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 5: I mean, that's a very terrible thing. That's a destruction 181 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 5: of the trust that Americans have in institutions. I think 182 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 5: President Obama is one of the reasons why there's a 183 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 5: lack of now trust in American institutions. Mister so called clean, 184 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 5: mister you know, no drama, Obama had no scandals. Well, 185 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 5: this is a huge scandal, and I think it's directly 186 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 5: tied to the second scal is the Biden presidency and 187 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 5: using the deep state against political enemies. So whether or 188 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 5: not this special prosecutor is the way to go about this, now, 189 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 5: that's I think an important question because I think many 190 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 5: people are concerned that they appoint a special prosecutor and 191 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 5: this case just it takes years and years and we 192 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 5: don't see anything from that. And I think that many people, 193 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 5: certainly in the conservative base, are very concerned that there've 194 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 5: been a lot of investigations, but there's been very few 195 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 5: people actually held to account through them. So if this 196 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 5: is going to continue and go forward, I think that 197 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 5: has to be the end goal here, because if there 198 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,079 Speaker 5: was this kind of abuse of trust and power, people 199 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 5: are going to expect some kind of repercussion from that. 200 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I like your point about the years and years. 201 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: You know, I hear the word special prosecutor, and that's 202 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: what I think of. I think it's like the big 203 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: dig of American legal juris pudents. It's going to take 204 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 1: ten times the amount of time and ten times the money, 205 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 1: and we may not get any result. 206 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 2: That's the way I feel speaking of a lot of money. 207 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: Jareded the Joe Biden book deal Hashet publishing the to 208 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: give him ten million dollars for his memoirs. You know, 209 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: I could do a whole segment about what does he 210 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: actually remember and what doesn't he and that could be 211 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: you know, maybe even for laughs. But in all seriousness, Jared, 212 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: this is a long running political scam which by the way, 213 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: a lot of Republicans have taken advantage of it as well. 214 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: This is a way for your supporters to put money 215 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: in your pocket. The publishers are used as basically a conduit. 216 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 1: I call it a money laundering operation. This is the 217 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,320 Speaker 1: way it's done. I mean, honestly, one of the things 218 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:30,599 Speaker 1: I say all the time is it's one of the 219 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 1: biggest falsehoods to say that political bribery is against the 220 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: law in America. 221 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,559 Speaker 2: It's actually that law on the books has. 222 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: Made it very very interesting, a lot of creative ways 223 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: to actually get around it. People work very hard to 224 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: get this done. I mean, this to me is infuriating 225 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: that this can happen. But you know, no one is 226 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: going to actually buy this book. Who wants to read it. 227 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: It's going to be just easily schools will be forced 228 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: to buy at something like that, or they won't get 229 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: any buyers at all. But the publisher, I promise you, 230 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 1: has been given the money, in other words, to hand 231 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,959 Speaker 1: over to Joe Biden, either by his donors or by 232 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: private act. 233 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 2: Basically, this is the way they do it. 234 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: And again a lot of Republicans did this all it 235 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: had done this in the past as well. You know, 236 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: do the American people are they aware of this? Do 237 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: they realize that this is just a scam? 238 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 5: I think maybe this is people who, especially those who 239 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 5: work in Washington, know how this works. I mean, frankly, 240 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 5: these memoirs, they I don't think they actually end up 241 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 5: selling very well at all. I mean, most of them 242 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 5: are terrible. I mean, if you've ever even tried to 243 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 5: read some of these, they're mostly parentous. 244 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 6: So it's very different. 245 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 5: I mean a lot of times when a statesman in 246 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 5: the nineteenth century would write a book, it would be 247 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 5: a very big deal, be very very excellent. But nobody 248 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 5: actually thinks that they actually write these books. So it 249 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 5: really does seem like a scam to a fund, of course, 250 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 5: the president and his family to maybe pay some ghostwriters, 251 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 5: which obviously in the case of Biden. One couldn't possibly 252 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 5: imagine even him dictating a book to a potential writer. 253 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 5: So this is going to be written by ghostwriters. And 254 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 5: it does feel very much like a scam. It's part 255 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 5: of the kind of corruption in American politics. And then frankly, 256 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 5: in President Joe Biden, who's spent his entire career politics 257 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 5: really did nothing else, is very much a part of 258 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 5: that game that politicians have used for a very long time. 259 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 5: It's very much like the lobbying kind of scam that 260 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 5: goes on in Washington too. So for somebody who's been 261 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 5: in Washington for a long time, who spent a long 262 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 5: time around Washington, it doesn't surprise me. This seems like 263 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 5: sadly business as usual. 264 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 2: It really is. 265 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: Jared, we run out of time, but I want everyone 266 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 1: to go to the Daily Signal and look up Jared 267 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: Stepman s ste P m An.

Check that out 270 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,559 Speaker 1: because that's another scam, kind of a money laundering thing, 271 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 1: it really actually is. 272 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 2: So check that out and Jared Stepman have a great week, 273 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 2: and thank you so much for joining me.

Archaeology have found the graves 278 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: and bodies of humans who lived one hundred thousand years ago. 279 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: They are believed to be the oldest intact graves and 280 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: bodies ever discovered. I'll have more details on that story. 281 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: An American Sunrise Early Edition. 282 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 8: Returns fight for the right of every man. 283 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 2: Welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition. 284 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Hull Cogan theme song they used 285 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: to play when he came out head to the ring. 286 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: That's a live look at the White House where President 287 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 1: Trump we're expecting to lead right at the end of 288 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: this program about eight am, on his way to Scotland 289 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: and stick with the real America's voice. 290 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 2: The next show, the American Sunrise Show. 291 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: After that, we'll certainly cover that as he leaves, and 292 00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: we'll give you all that information.

If you 297 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 1: were listening to the radio in nineteen eighty you could 298 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: not avoid that song and his trumpet playing still just 299 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: beautiful to listen to. 300 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 2: Sorry that he passed away as well. 301 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: We're still looking for some definitive answers about hul Cogan's death. 302 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: By the way, yesterday morning at age seventy one. Now, 303 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: he had reportedly been suffering from complications from a recent surgery. 304 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: We know that an ambulance was called to his home 305 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: in Clearwater, Florida. They tried to resuscitate him. He was 306 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: pronounced dead officially at the hospital not a long time 307 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: after that. But it's also a good time to remember 308 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: that this was someone who absolutely was the face of 309 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: and the personality behind the explosion of pro wrestling in America. 310 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: For those of you who are a little bit older 311 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: than I am, or maybe my age, remember that pro 312 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: wrestling used to be a local enterprise. He used to 313 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: be a different a group of matches that you to 314 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: go on all over the country in the nineteen seventies, 315 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: early nineteen seventies, every local television news station, almost ever, 316 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: everyone would have upstairs from their newsroom a little ring 317 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: and pro wrestling with maybe fifty people watching in the room. 318 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: And I know a lot of people who did television 319 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: news in the early seventies and they would hear the 320 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: booms and the crashes on top of them while they 321 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: were doing. 322 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 2: The morning or the evening news. 323 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: So hul Cogan was a big reason why this became 324 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: a national thing, an international obsession, and of course he 325 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: ended up becoming much more in the spotlight over it. 326 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 1: His cameo in Rocky three was a huge springboard for him, 327 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: but he. 328 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 2: Also got himself into trouble. 329 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 1: Sometimes made some racist comments that were leaked once and 330 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: he very much apologized for them. I want to make 331 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: sure everyone knows he very much apologized for them. And 332 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: of course he ended up suing Gawker for publishing a 333 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: sex tape that included him in and he won quite 334 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: a bit of money in that lawsuit, and it ended 335 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: up killing a big part of the gossip industry online. 336 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: Of course, it still exists, but they have to be 337 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: a lot more careful now because of hul Cogan. 338 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 2: Speaking of gossipy and salacious things. 339 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein's longtime girlfriend, Justlene Maxwell, spent six hours answering 340 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche's questions at a courthouse in 341 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: Tallahassee yesterday. Just Maxwell has been in prison since twenty 342 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: twenty two in Florida. Now at the same time, House 343 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has issued a subpoena for 344 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 1: Maxwell to give her to for her to give a 345 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: deposition at the prison for the House Committee, So she 346 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: won't leave prison for that that I guess would be 347 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: done by video. Remember, Maxwell was convicted of sex trafficking 348 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: and other charges and she was sent us to twenty 349 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: years in prison again in twenty twenty two. Don't know 350 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: how much we can trust what she says one way 351 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 1: or the other, but according to her lawyers, as of yesterday, 352 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: she had never really been interviewed to or asked for 353 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: a lot of information about Epstein before, which is really 354 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: really strange. I understand they didn't feel like they needed 355 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: that information to convict her, but why not get it 356 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: to at least find out the extent of the criminal enterprise. 357 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: So maybe they have it now. Six hours is a 358 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: long time. You can cover a lot of ground in 359 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: that amount of time. All Right, here's an interesting I 360 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 1: call this a g whiz story. A cave in central 361 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 1: Israel is the focal point of the entire archaeological and 362 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 1: maybe the historical world right now, as perhaps the oldest 363 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 1: burial site in the world has been found. It's a 364 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 1: a cave where the well preserved remains of early humans 365 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:23,400 Speaker 1: dating back more than one hundred thousand years ago were 366 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 1: carefully arranged in pits in particular burial positions. They also 367 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: had some items on them that basically the archaeologists believe 368 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: had no value financially, so they believe these were probably 369 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:38,360 Speaker 1: the first signs of organized religious symbols and icons. Now, 370 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 1: this has been an excavation that's been going on since 371 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, but this is absolutely in the last few days, 372 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 1: last few weeks, the biggest discoveries that they've made. It's 373 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: going to take a very long time for them continue 374 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: to excavate it. I understand from all the reading and 375 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 1: the videos that I've seen that there are actually literally 376 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 1: screaming bats all over that cave. So count me out 377 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,160 Speaker 1: of that excavation. I don't want to go to that excavation. 378 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 1: I admired the courage of the people who are doing it. 379 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,360 Speaker 1: But this is really fascinating that we have human beings 380 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 1: over one hundred thousand years old being found for the 381 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: first time, and all that we can learn from it. 382 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,360 Speaker 2: Hopefully we'll learn something that will help us today. 383 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 7: All right. 384 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,120 Speaker 1: Well, since President Trump was sworn in more than six 385 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: months ago now, his administration has made so many enormous 386 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: changes to our economy and our economic laws, and that 387 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: has really been putting us, mostly especially to look at 388 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: the stock markets and. 389 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 2: Our job market and the economy the GDP. 390 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: Most of it has been in the positive direction, but 391 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: that isn't anything that you can actually do for yourself 392 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 1: to change your personal finances. If you don't do anything yourself, 393 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,399 Speaker 1: youve got to take advantage of all these things that 394 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 1: are changing. 395 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 2: You have to do that. 396 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 1: One of the best ways to do that is to 397 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: look after your savings through diversification, particularly with gold.

It's a no tie Friday. 429 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: Looking at the markets right here, and also reading the 430 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: ghetter and the rumble chats. People reminded me also Connie 431 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: Francis passed away this week. Man, angel of death, give 432 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: us a break. Please look at the markets so you 433 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 1: can see very modest positive open still positive. Markets were 434 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: mixed yesterday, mostly higher, but the Dow was down a lot, 435 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 1: but the Nasdaq and the S ANDB five hundred will 436 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 1: open again at all time highs. You see gold still 437 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: at the thirty three hundred dollars per barrel mark, oil 438 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 1: very tame at the sixty six dollar valve. And I 439 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: want you to take a look at st sixty six 440 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 1: barrel gold. Why did I say gold a barrel gold 441 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,679 Speaker 1: per ounce? All right, I'm the angel of Death has 442 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 1: got me all mixed up too. Now let's take a 443 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,399 Speaker 1: look at bitcoin because of an interesting development there. I 444 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 1: want you all to look at We had been for 445 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks in the one hundred and seventeen 446 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: thousand to one hundred and twenty one thousand window. We 447 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 1: broke below it this morning. As you can see, we're 448 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: at one hundred and sixteen. Not too far off, but 449 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: it's possible. There's some selling going on in bitcoin right 450 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: now as they break below that window, so keep a 451 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: close eye on that. No, this is not eighteen ninety, 452 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 1: my friends, but there's actually railroad news and railroad merger news. 453 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 2: That's big news. Again. 454 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,159 Speaker 1: Again, this is also not an episode of the Gilded 455 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,199 Speaker 1: Age on HBO. It's really true. Railroads are still a 456 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 1: major part of our economy. I know they're not sexy, 457 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: but they are still a big part of our economy. 458 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: Union Pacific is in talks with Norfolk Southern to merge 459 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: the two companies that would create a two hundred billion 460 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: dollar coast to coast rail freight company. 461 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 2: Now a lot of people are looking. 462 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: At this very closely because this could really trigger more 463 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: consolidation in the industry, which would possibly drive up prices, 464 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: possibly put jobs in jeopardy. I wonder if you all 465 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: remember this feels like years ago, but it was just. 466 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 2: Twenty twenty two. 467 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: You might remember when then President Joe Biden blocked the 468 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: railroad workers from going on strike. He basically forced them 469 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,199 Speaker 1: off from going on the picket line. That got a 470 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,879 Speaker 1: lot of union members really angry at Joe Biden. And 471 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: now they may have their jobs lost because of this 472 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: potential merger. So keep a good eye on this. Remember 473 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 1: it's a frail industry. Sometimes they have good news and 474 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 1: bad news that happens to them. All Right, these last 475 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 1: eight months, I think it's pretty obvious, have been really 476 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: bad for United Healthcare, the America health insurance giant. Remember 477 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: their CEO was murdered on the sidewalks of New York 478 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: back in December. Then their stocks started to go down 479 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: because people are really looking at the business model of 480 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 1: health insurance in this country and scratching their heads and 481 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,919 Speaker 1: wondering how it's going to continue to make money. And 482 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 1: now United Healthcare is acknowledging what had been reported and 483 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 1: hinted at for months. It is indeed unh is indeed 484 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: the subject of a Justice Department Medicare fraud investigation. 485 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 2: Now it's all true. Now. 486 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: The crux of the accusations against UNHRS follows doctors reportedly 487 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 1: were pressured by United Healthcare to submit claims for certain 488 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: conditions and certain treatments that get bigger payments from Medicare 489 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 1: than others, even though they may not have been justified 490 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,159 Speaker 1: or actually even carried out. A lot of people have 491 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: been alleging this about Medicare for a long time. If 492 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,919 Speaker 1: this is true, and it's true on any wider scale, 493 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: United Healthcare and maybe the entire private health insurance industry 494 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: in this country is going to have to go through 495 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: some major, major reforms. It is not a sector that's 496 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 1: doing well for investors right now, to say the least. 497 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: All Right, and now for the toughest talk yet from 498 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: the Trump team on TikTok. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnik now 499 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: says TikTok will go dark for America unless China agrees 500 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: to give us more control over the popular app. Now again, 501 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: last month, President Trump extended the deadline for the third 502 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 1: time since he took office in January. Now, Byte Dance, 503 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 1: which is the owner of TikTok, has until September seventeenth 504 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: to divest from Tikstok's US businesses. I thought that when 505 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 1: President Trump engineered that merger between Nipon Steel and US 506 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 1: Steel where Nipon Steele's continued to have an ownership stake, 507 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: but US based executives and US based leaders had complete 508 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: control of US Steel would be the apps the model 509 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: that they could follow with TikTok as well. I don't 510 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 1: know if that's what they're trying to do here as well. 511 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 1: I assume it is, but I was surprised that that 512 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 1: wasn't immediately announced after that Nepon Steel US merger was 513 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 1: approved by President Trump and his administration. But I'll tell 514 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: you this, if they don't get a deal like that 515 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: with TikTok, I'm beginning to believe that TikTok will indeed 516 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: go dark in the US, and for a lot of 517 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 1: people in this country, that will be a major shock 518 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: to the system. 519 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 2: It isn't just something that kids look at. 520 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: There are a lot of businesses that are based on TikTok, 521 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: and I know that they're praying that something, some deal 522 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 1: has worked out here. Otherwise I got to move on 523 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: to another platform, and that may not be so easy. 524 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 1: All right, ladies and gentlemen, start your engines. This is 525 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 1: Moving America Sponsored by Artillery tea company artillerytcode dot com 526 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: use promo code rab for ten percent off your first order. 527 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: Artillery t is all natural, whole leaf, The tea bags 528 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: are chemical free and each TA bag can be used twice. 529 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: Artillery Tea Company is family and veteran known and operated, 530 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,719 Speaker 1: and a portion of your purchase goes to help veteran 531 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: and first responder charities.

Attention Porsche employees, 533 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 1: our business model no longer makes any sense. We hope 534 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: you don't have to fire. You have a nice day. 535 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: That's basically I'm paraphrasing, but that's basically what Porsche CEO 536 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: Oliver Bloom, who also told employees that additional cost counting 537 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 1: measures are planned for dwindling sales. That's basically what he 538 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: told employees yesterday in a company wide email. That's not 539 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: something I want to open in my inbox if I'm 540 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 1: working for a private company or anyone else. Now they 541 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:41,160 Speaker 1: are basically at Porsche blaming mostly sales in China. Sales 542 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:44,959 Speaker 1: in China have fallen off a cliff, and foreign companies 543 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 1: are often making huge bets on China because it's just 544 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: that huge population and it's a growing economy still and 545 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: people believe this is where your. 546 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 2: Money is going to be made. 547 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 1: Then they find out that the Chinese government really makes 548 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: it hard to continue to do business there after an 549 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: initial burst in the first couple of years. They're also, 550 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: of course blaming tariff stuff. But frankly, they made a 551 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 1: big bed on China. They're losing and they need to 552 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 1: figure out how to make this work. Although it's not 553 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,479 Speaker 1: all bad news for Porsche. As I mentioned last week, 554 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,400 Speaker 1: I was very wrong when Porscha went and started making 555 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: SUVs thirteen years ago. 556 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 2: That has been a very successful business for them. Maybe 557 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:19,880 Speaker 2: they need to. 558 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 1: Look into that a little bit more and a little 559 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: bit less into blaming tariffs. Self driving car programs, by 560 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 1: the way, are moving forward everywhere all over the world, 561 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: not just the United States, especially with these robotaxi. Companies 562 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 1: that are coming out, like you know, Uber and also 563 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 1: Tesla are very heavily invested in these things, and so 564 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 1: that's good news for a company called mobile Eye. You 565 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: might be familiar with Mobile Eye. It is like the 566 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: safety tech leader when it comes to helping whether you're 567 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 1: driving the car yourself or self driving mobilize. The company 568 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: that's behind those lane departures alerts that you get, or 569 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: when someone's in your blind spot you get a little 570 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 1: bit of a beep. That's all Mobile eye technology. Some 571 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 1: people have copied it. I understand that, but Mobile is 572 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 1: really the innovator there. They're doing very well with that. 573 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 1: And again, you guys all know my position about self 574 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: driving cars. I know a lot of people really don't 575 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 1: like them. But please don't make your final decision about 576 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 1: self driving cars until you talk to someone who is 577 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: disabled and has been let down by our government and 578 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: their local states and cities. When they don't get those 579 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 1: buses and bands that are supposed to help them get around, 580 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: they are very unreliable. They never come. The self driving 581 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,719 Speaker 1: car is a way to unshackle these people. By the way, 582 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: getting back to Mobile I, it may be a bargain 583 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: for you. Stockwise, it is way down from its fifty 584 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: two week high. Again, I don't make stock buying suggestions, 585 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 1: just letting you know you might want to take a 586 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,359 Speaker 1: look at Mobile I. That stock ticker symbol is mbl Y. 587 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: All right, I want to get back to EV's electric vehicles. 588 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: More and more studies show that electric vehicles spend more 589 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: time in repair shops and incur costlier repair bills than 590 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: gas powered cars. 591 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 2: Those of you who own evs know this already. 592 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 1: JD Power and Associates did the study and it blames 593 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: all the added technology in evs. There's added technology that 594 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 1: breaks down more often, more bells and whistles, more breakage. 595 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: I used to always think about that all the time, 596 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: but it really takes a long time to get them 597 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 1: out of the shop these days. 598 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 2: And of course the repairs are much more expensive. So 599 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 2: if you think you're. 600 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 1: Saving a lot of money by not having a buy 601 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: gas and just charging your car, remember you need to 602 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: factor in the cost of repairs. 603 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 2: All right. So who did you guess? 604 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:23,719 Speaker 1: One the drag race between the Tesla Model S plaid 605 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 1: and the Corvette ZR one. Well, the smarter motorheads among 606 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: you won't be surprised to. 607 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 2: Hear that the Tesla one. 608 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 1: And that's because EV's often can accelerate faster than gas 609 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 1: powered cars. After a little while, eventually a gas power 610 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 1: car can overtake them, but evs take less time to 611 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: hit that fast speed, so in a drag race, a 612 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: quarter mile drag race, they have an advantage. Now, and 613 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: the one that you're watching here, the plaid finished in 614 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: nine point two seconds compared to nine point eight seconds 615 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: for the Corvette. Now we just have to wait and 616 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: see what the all wheel drive hybrid ZR one X, 617 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: which is coming out soon, we'll do. Suggesting it can 618 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: do the quarter mile drag race in under nine seconds. 619 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: That'll be a thing to watch. I will keep my 620 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 1: eyes open for that. 621 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 2: Okay. Coming up in the Russia Gate. 622 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: Files release, we're learning more and more about President Obama, 623 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: James Clapper, John Brennan. 624 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 2: But what about Susan Rice. That's one name we haven't heard. 625 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 1: All that much, and there's one document connected to her 626 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: that may have told us about all of this all along. 627 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: And while Trump supporters are having fun laughing at Hunter Biden, 628 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 1: was there a more serious method to his recent podcast 629 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: interview Madness? 630 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 2: An alternative theory on what that's all about? Coming up next. 631 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: It's Friday, July twenty fifth. Here this morning's top stories. 632 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: Not knock, who's there? It's President Trump and his fifty 633 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: years of big time construction project experience. The President paid 634 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: a personal visit a lot with Senator Tim Scott to 635 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: the site of the big and expensive Federal Reserve renovation project. 636 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: Of course, he was there with Jay Powell the chairman 637 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 1: as well. It's not really about remodeling. Of course, President 638 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 1: Trump's wants interest rates down. Two top Senate Republicans are 639 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: calling for a special counsel to look into the unfolding 640 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: revelations about the Russia collusion hoax. Those two Senators, Lindsay 641 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 1: Graham and John Cornyn, not coincidentally, are both facing tough 642 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 1: primary challenges next year, so you can see just how 643 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 1: important they believe this case is. 644 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 2: To the Republican base. 645 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: The Justice Department interviews longtime Jeffrey Epstein girlfriend Jiseline Maxwell 646 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: for about six hours, but it seems like everyone from 647 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 1: House speaker Mike Johnson to plenty of folks on the 648 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 1: left are asking the same question, can we trust anything 649 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: she has to say? And wrestling star and cultural icon 650 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: Hulk Hogan has died. The Hulkster made pro wrestling a 651 00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: national fad, but he also created a lot of controversy. 652 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 1: He was seventy one years old. American Sunrise Early Edition continues. Now, 653 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: welcome back to this note time Friday.

You and I kind of knew a lot 667 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: of these details for years, and I think most of 668 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: the viewers knew a lot of the details, but now 669 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 1: more of America's learning about it. 670 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 2: And you told me something that was interesting. 671 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 1: We've heard a lot about John Brannan the last few 672 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: day as a former director of the FBI. We've heard 673 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: about James Clapper. Of course, we've had a huge focus 674 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 1: on President Obama, but you'd think that something that Susan Rice, 675 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 1: who was his National security advisor, You think something that 676 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 1: she wrote towards the end of his presidency is something 677 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 1: we should also focus on, tell me a little bit 678 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: more about. 679 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 6: That, ohios, Jakeson, that's where this past summer and anyway, yes, 680 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 6: right at the very very end, and I mean the 681 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 6: very end. I'm talking the last hour and a half 682 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 6: of the Obama administration, so January twentieth, twenty sixteen. At 683 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 6: that point, having worked in the White House, I can 684 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 6: tell you that the Secret Service is scurrying everyone out. 685 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 6: Even though your power doesn't end until noon. They want 686 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 6: you out of that building. But at ten thirty, Susan 687 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 6: Rice in the West Wing is pounding away on her 688 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 6: computer's screen to write a memo to file, a memo 689 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:05,719 Speaker 6: to file, because she's got an hour and a half 690 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,959 Speaker 6: to basically say, you know that, meaning that we had 691 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 6: nothing happened, you know that, meaning that we had the 692 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 6: President said do things by the book. Now, no one 693 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,839 Speaker 6: writes a memo to file like that unless you want 694 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 6: to do a little bit of cya for yourself and 695 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 6: your boss. I looked at that. I remember talking to you, 696 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 6: Jake at the time, and I said, it has to 697 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 6: do with Obama. Obama is the person who set this 698 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 6: in motion. Susan Rice writing that memo is to my 699 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 6: mind a smoking gun. You don't write a memo like 700 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 6: that unless there was some there was a little there there. 701 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 6: It's the opposite of Oakland. There is there there. 702 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 703 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 1: It reminds me a lot of one of the Watergate 704 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 1: tapes where President Nixon is talking about how he knows 705 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:58,280 Speaker 1: how a way that he can get a million dollars 706 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 1: to pay off the Watergate burglars, and then he suddenly says, 707 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: but that would be wrong because of course President Nixon 708 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,720 Speaker 1: knew that there was there was an you know, recording 709 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 1: device devices in the Oval. 710 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 2: Office and knew that would go. So it's the same thing. 711 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 6: You made me old enough to remember that. That became 712 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 6: sort of a joke meme with everyone for about a year. Yeah, 713 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 6: you'd say something and then you would go, like to 714 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 6: a plant or to a lamp ago, but that would 715 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 6: be wrong. 716 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:25,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a Kentucky Fried movie. By the way. 717 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: That was a joke in Kentucky Fried movie as well, which, 718 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 1: by the way, I highly recommend. All right, let's talk 719 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 1: about another big story of the last twelve hours eighteen hours. 720 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 1: President Trump's trip to the FED yesterday. It was definitely unique. 721 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I wonder if the moral of the story 722 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 1: is this that if you are a public official, the 723 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 1: whole quote, I should be able to do my job 724 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 1: with any outside pressure. I wonder if that whole myth 725 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 1: has been broken. Look, of course we want the FED 726 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:51,840 Speaker 1: to do it. It believes is right, the chairman believes 727 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 1: to be the best thing for America. 728 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,839 Speaker 2: But the idea that bureaucrats. 729 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: In Washington, even though they're not directly elected, don't have 730 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,240 Speaker 1: any accountability and seemed to be very very offended. 731 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 2: How dare you put pressure on me? I'm just so 732 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 2: tired of this. They're not the Dukes of Norfolk. This 733 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 2: is enough is enough already, and I can't meet people. 734 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,200 Speaker 1: May not like the way President Trump does it, but 735 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 1: I would be happy if any president put these people 736 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 1: in a little bit more of a spotlight, no more 737 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 1: on accountability, especially for a job that affects so many people, 738 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: like FED chairman. 739 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:25,760 Speaker 6: The whole notion behind sort of all of these bureaucrats 740 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 6: having independence is based on something that goes back all 741 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 6: the way to President Wilson, that there could be a 742 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:41,240 Speaker 6: group of technocrats who would make great decisions without regard 743 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 6: to political pressure. Well, guess what one they are regarded? 744 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:48,040 Speaker 6: They do have political pressure placed on them. Take a 745 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 6: look as to what Powell did prior to the election, 746 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 6: in which he lowered interest rates twice when there was 747 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 6: really no justification necessarily to do so, and how he 748 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,760 Speaker 6: is holding off and even though the data is demonstrating 749 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,799 Speaker 6: that tariffs are not inflationary, he said, yeah, but I 750 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 6: have to wait a little bit longer. Yeah, but I 751 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 6: have to wait a little bit longer. No, he's doing 752 00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 6: it because he doesn't like TIFFs, he doesn't like Trump, 753 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 6: and he's not going to lower interest rates. There was 754 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:20,800 Speaker 6: a comparison chart. I took a look just yesterday preparing 755 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 6: for our show, and if you look at interest rates 756 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:28,840 Speaker 6: in the United States versus Europe, versus Japan versus China, 757 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,359 Speaker 6: all of our major trading partners, the UK, we are 758 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 6: by far the highest. Now explain that given the fact 759 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,400 Speaker 6: that what we've seen in inflation numbers, it has to 760 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,840 Speaker 6: do with Powell. If I was Trump, I think it 761 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:46,360 Speaker 6: was a great photo op yesterday. But if I was Trump, 762 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 6: there is no limitation as to when you can name 763 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 6: the person who you're going to use as a successor 764 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 6: to Powell. I'd name him now. I let it be 765 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 6: well known he's going to be my my FED person, 766 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 6: and I will be nominating him. So you don't start 767 00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 6: the clock, because you can't start the clock just yet. 768 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 6: But once that happens, people like you, people like a 769 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:16,719 Speaker 6: show on another cable network that has four letters, will 770 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 6: be rushing to get this person on TV. In a sense, 771 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 6: you're going to have You're gonna make Powell immediately a 772 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,960 Speaker 6: lame duck, and everyone's going to be looking. Let's just 773 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 6: say I'm just choosing a name, Kevin Hassard. Let's say 774 00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,759 Speaker 6: they choose Kevin Hassard, and Kevin Hazard is on and 775 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 6: saying I'd reduce interest rates by twenty five points a 776 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,800 Speaker 6: point twenty five right, twenty five BIPs. At that point, 777 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 6: the market is going to be listening to Kevin Hassard. 778 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:49,000 Speaker 6: The market will be responding to Kevin Hassard. They're not 779 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 6: going to be responding to Powell because Powell basically will 780 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 6: have been lame duck if I was Trump. I know 781 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,919 Speaker 6: Bessett yesterday to the Secretary said that he was looking 782 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 6: at December for an naming the replacement. I'd move that 783 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 6: they've got a shortlist, I'd move that date up. I'd 784 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 6: move it up to September. Wait, for the August craziness 785 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:15,360 Speaker 6: to go away, and in September name him, and you 786 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:18,359 Speaker 6: know that the news media will be all over this 787 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 6: presumptive chairman. 788 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. I again, it's it's it's it's the thing. 789 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 1: I've been hitting so much on this program, particularly with 790 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 1: mortgage rates, but I don't talk enough about the interest 791 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 1: rates and the impact of businesses and they're borrowing. But 792 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 1: unless we get our home buying situation improved in this country, 793 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 1: we won't be able to have the strong that kind 794 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 1: of strong community you don't really want. 795 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,880 Speaker 6: If I can segue for just a second, ye, something 796 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 6: that was said by the President this week. If if 797 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 6: it comes to pass, well, unleash the sort of the 798 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 6: all of this desire to sell people homes, which is 799 00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 6: I mean, if you talk to real estate agents, the 800 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 6: issue isn't necessarily there aren't any buyers, There aren't any sellers. 801 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 6: No one can get properties listed. Well. The President this 802 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,720 Speaker 6: week said one of the things that he's thinking about 803 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 6: putting in the next sort of set of bills that 804 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 6: he puts out is that if you're a senior citizen, 805 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 6: which there is a huge number of boomers who happen 806 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 6: to own homes and we're going to make it having 807 00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:26,760 Speaker 6: no capital gains whatsoever in the sale of your primary residence. Now, 808 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,360 Speaker 6: if you're a senator, shift you've got a real problem 809 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 6: because you have multiple primary residences. But aside from senatorship, 810 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,359 Speaker 6: for the rest of us, if you're an older if 811 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 6: you're an older person, this unleashes your desire to sell 812 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:48,359 Speaker 6: your house. You don't have the capital gains. Frankly, I 813 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 6: don't know the cost numbers for that. I don't think 814 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:57,440 Speaker 6: it's particularly huge, but it's one of the things that 815 00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,359 Speaker 6: the president can do, and if he does that, I 816 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 6: agree with you, it will unleash a transfer of wealth 817 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:08,719 Speaker 6: and a transfer of assets from an older generation which 818 00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 6: is over because over protective of all their assets to 819 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:17,840 Speaker 6: younger generations. The housing stock would radically go up. So, yeah, 820 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 6: he can't control Powell just now, but there are other 821 00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,239 Speaker 6: things that he can do, and if he does them, 822 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 6: it'll be a huge win. 823 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:27,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think. 824 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 1: I think one of the nicknames for President Trump, if 825 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 1: we had honest historians in this country, will be President 826 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 1: work Around. 827 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:34,359 Speaker 2: He comes up with a lot of workarounds. 828 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 1: The biggest one, I think was his cutting in half 829 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 1: of the standard deduction for people who don't itemize their taxes. 830 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:42,919 Speaker 1: In twenty seventeen, those tax breaks were saved by. 831 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 2: The big beautiful Bill. 832 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,040 Speaker 1: But you make a lot of good points, Jim, Thank 833 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,080 Speaker 1: you so much for joining us as doctor James Nezzo. 834 00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:50,720 Speaker 2: Glad you're back with us.

I haven't talked about yet this hour, 841 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 1: and it takes aim at one of America's most enduring 842 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:16,280 Speaker 1: and most misunderstood problems of the last forty years. 843 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 2: Can you guess what it is? David Brody and I will. 844 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:22,000 Speaker 1: Discuss an American Sunrise Early Edition comes right back. 845 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:43,799 Speaker 2: Welcome back to. 846 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 1: American Sunrise Early Edition. Where As I like to call 847 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:50,440 Speaker 1: it the Abnormal Show inside joke.

Why not a one and forty 851 00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 1: year old friend, the statulated liberty. It's a great shot. 852 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,880 Speaker 1: By the way, thank you control room for dialing that 853 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:05,440 Speaker 1: up every once in a while. Though I understand the 854 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,280 Speaker 1: viewers on Getter and Rumble are asking for more small 855 00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 1: town shots, which we have done on a number of 856 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 1: occasions here on this program, and we'll do more of 857 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:14,240 Speaker 1: them in the coming weeks. 858 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 2: Not always available, there's the control room. Blame those guys. 859 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:19,239 Speaker 1: No, no, they do a great job, and they are 860 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:21,760 Speaker 1: a good example of how gen Z is not hopeless. 861 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 7: Folks. 862 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,839 Speaker 2: Not only do they work, but they wake up early 863 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,200 Speaker 2: in the morning to work. I most young people don't 864 00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 2: ever do that. 865 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 1: All right, David Brody joins us right now, and in 866 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 1: all seriousness, this was not an executive order I was 867 00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: expecting from President Trump late yesterday, but basically signing an 868 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:41,360 Speaker 1: executive order giving local municipalities and states the right to 869 00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 1: clear homeless people off of the streets. Now, look, the 870 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,279 Speaker 1: homeless situation is there are so many problems with it, 871 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 1: starting with the name. 872 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:52,360 Speaker 2: It's not really about homelessness. 873 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,319 Speaker 1: You say the word homeless and it sounds like, oh, 874 00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 1: there's just no place for this person to live. The 875 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:59,800 Speaker 1: homeless situation of this country should be called the mental. 876 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,759 Speaker 2: Illness and drug Addiction Program. Almost every person who is 877 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,880 Speaker 2: quote unquote living homeless, living on the street in America 878 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 2: is dealing with either severe mental illness or drug addiction. 879 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 2: And they're usually this both, and they're usually going on 880 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 2: and one often causes the other. 881 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 1: That's what's going on in America. It's a difficult problem 882 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 1: to solve because hospitalization is expensive. And it's also difficult, David, 883 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 1: because legal advocates, which is also a misnomer, have been 884 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 1: blocking people and blocking cities from trying to get these 885 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:31,640 Speaker 1: people off the streets for years. 886 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 2: But as I talk it to you just for a second, 887 00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 2: there is a ray of hope. 888 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,839 Speaker 1: There were cities that got this problem very much under 889 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:42,400 Speaker 1: control in the mid to late nineties. Rudy Giuliani and 890 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:45,440 Speaker 1: New York City did a lot to make this problem better. 891 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 1: And this really needs to If you don't tell these 892 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: people that it's going to be okay for you to 893 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 1: live outside like they do in San Francisco, in La 894 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 1: where they literally welcome these people to use drugs in 895 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:58,320 Speaker 1: open air areas, if you just say that that door 896 00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 1: is closed, you start the process towards making things better, 897 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 1: so it doesn't have to be all about rounding up. 898 00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 1: It could just be about discouraging people from coming in 899 00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:08,240 Speaker 1: the first place. Right now, the welcome mat is out 900 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:10,879 Speaker 1: for drug addicts and very mentally ill people to live 901 00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 1: on our streets. 902 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:13,840 Speaker 2: That's unconscionable in every way whatsoever. 903 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:16,680 Speaker 4: Oh, there's no doubt about that, Jake. And look, you 904 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:19,880 Speaker 4: can make the argument easily that this is a compassionate move. 905 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 4: I mean, if you think about what the Trump administration 906 00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:24,839 Speaker 4: is doing here, if you look inside the executive Order, 907 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 4: it talks about sobriety treatments, those type of things being 908 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:33,799 Speaker 4: prioritized for the states too, basically that that federal money 909 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,759 Speaker 4: will be helped in that area rather than just throwing them, 910 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 4: you know, and giving them shelter for the night or 911 00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 4: for the week or for the month and not having 912 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:44,880 Speaker 4: anything to do with sobriety and treatment. So it is 913 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:49,640 Speaker 4: a compassionate move looked at that way. You mentioned Rudy Giuliani. 914 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:52,160 Speaker 4: It's funny, you know, you and I just channel each other, Jake, 915 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:54,319 Speaker 4: we just channel each other. You know, you have me 916 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,440 Speaker 4: at hello. Wait, no, hold on, that sounds creepy. But 917 00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:01,279 Speaker 4: the point is is that I was researching Giuliani today. 918 00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:02,800 Speaker 4: I was curious about what he did in the nineties. 919 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 4: Of course, we you know, we lived through that, we 920 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:06,719 Speaker 4: know that, we know it was great what he did. 921 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:09,359 Speaker 4: And this was a quote from Juliani, and I love 922 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 4: this quote and I just wanted to read it too. 923 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:13,799 Speaker 4: This is from Giuliani quote in the nineties. Streets do 924 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:17,320 Speaker 4: not exist in civilized societies for the purpose of people 925 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 4: sleeping there. Bedrooms are for sleeping. And then he went 926 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 4: on to add that the right to sleep on the 927 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,920 Speaker 4: streets doesn't exist anywhere. The founding fathers never put that 928 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 4: in the constitution. And let me think, oh, yeah, he's right. 929 00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 4: So anyhow, it's not to say that we don't have 930 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 4: compassion for these people. But let's target the money in 931 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:36,600 Speaker 4: the right way if we're going to spend the money 932 00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 4: to begin with. 933 00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:39,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, and let's make it clear. 934 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 1: When cities like San Francisco in La tell you that 935 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 1: you can come and use drugs on their streets, the 936 00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:47,239 Speaker 1: drug prices become lower in those areas. People get the 937 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 1: drugs and they die. They're always dying on those streets. 938 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 1: This is not compassion, all right. 939 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,279 Speaker 2: That's American Sunrise Early edition for this week. The Real Show. 940 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:56,840 Speaker 2: The Big Show's coming up next i'll see you in 941 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:57,560 Speaker 2: the nine am hour.
