1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: Ahead on an American Sunrise early edition.

2
00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:06,560
Speaker 2: Jimmy Carter, America's thirty ninth president, has died at age

3
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:09,559
Speaker 2: one hundred and Even though he left office forty four

4
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,600
Speaker 2: years ago, much of his work is still very much

5
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:19,600
Speaker 2: an effect today, and that's mostly not a good thing. Meanwhile,

6
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,960
Speaker 2: America's upcoming forty seventh president is weighing in on a

7
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 2: healthy debate about immigration and tech jobs that included Elon Musk.

8
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:31,160
Speaker 2: Several groups inside the big tent Republican Party had some

9
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 2: spirited arguments, but now the focus is on a solution

10
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 2: spoiler alert that's called democracy. But there's been no internal

11
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 2: debates about what to do about illegal migrants who commit

12
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,919
Speaker 2: even more crimes when they get to America, and incoming

13
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 2: borders are Tom Holman refuses to bend to liberal pressure

14
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 2: on deportations.

15
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 1: Smile, Joe, you're on. We just proved you're a liar camera.

16
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,680
Speaker 2: After all these years of telling us he never met

17
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 2: with his son Hunter's business partners, here we have the

18
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 2: photographic evidence that he not only met them, he helped

19
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 2: introduce them to China's communist leaders.

20
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: But does Joe think that's a bad thing? I guess not.

21
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 1: As more and more.

22
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 2: Reports say he's starting to openly tell people he would

23
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 2: have won the election and he stayed in the race.

24
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 2: American Sunrise Early Edition is staying in the race, and

25
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:32,840

31
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 3: that matter.

00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: He will be letting the public know regularly what we

33
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: have found.

34
00:01:55,680 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 3: American Sunrise Early Edition with your host Jake no starts now.

35
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 2: Good morning, and welcome to American Sunrise Early Edition. I'm

36
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 2: Jake Novak, and I'm very grateful you're joining us today. Well,

37
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 2: we learned yesterday that former President Jimmy Carter passed away

38
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 2: at age one hundred. He had been in hospice care

39
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 2: for almost two years, so this was not a surprise,

40
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 2: of course, and of course we extend our condolences to

41
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 2: his family and to his friends. But this is a

42
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 2: news program, and I'm a political analyst, and we're going

43
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 2: to do our jobs and analyze Jimmy Carter's political legacy.

44
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: Joining me how to do that and more.

45
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 2: Is Grace Curley, the superstar host of the Grace Curley

46
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 2: Radio Show every Monday through Friday. And Grace, what comes

47
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 2: to mind when you hear Jimmy Carter's name? So someone

48
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 2: who's from a younger generation, I just wonder, Yet again,

49
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 2: we can't assume that everyone knows all the history, So

50
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 2: I wonder what comes to your mind when you hear

51
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 2: his name.

52
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 4: Jake, thank you for having me, and I also want

53
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 4: to send my condolences to the Carter family. But there's

54
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 4: no denying that when I hear Jimmy Carter, or especially

55
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 4: when it's been brought up over the last few years,

56
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 4: it's usually been in relation to Joe Biden's presidency and

57
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 4: the tougher parts of Joe Biden's presidency, Inflation, the cost

58
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 4: of living, the general malaise that people have been feeling

59
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 4: over the last four years. I think there has been

60
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:28,080
Speaker 4: a lot of throwbacks for people to the Carter years,

61
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 4: and then of course you have older people who share

62
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,959
Speaker 4: their stories about those years and right before Ronald Reagan

63
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 4: came in and changed things, people talk about gas lines.

64
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 4: I mean that's something that that's something that older people

65
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 4: love to tell younger people about.

66
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: You have no idea what it was like waiting in.

67
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 4: The gas lines, getting a number and having to figure

68
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 4: out if you could go that day. And so that

69
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 4: is for for me what I associate with Jimmy Carter.

70
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 4: And now it's nice today to hear all of the

71
00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 4: other parts of his life as a person, you know,

72
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 4: the the fact that he was married for seventy seven years,

73
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 4: the fact that he was by all accounts a great father,

74
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 4: a great husband. But there's no denying that when you

75
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 4: talk about the political aspects and his political legacy, that

76
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 4: that is what comes to mind for me.

77
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think this day will be certainly mixed with

78
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 2: the proper respect. There were a lot of people who

79
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 2: were saying, well, you know, you need to weigh a

80
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 2: day or so. The problem with that is this is

81
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 2: when history really gets recorded for many decades to come,

82
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 2: if not more, until a really smart historian author comes

83
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 2: and writes a really good book explaining the realities. But honestly,

84
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 2: this was a failed presidency, one that enabled the Islamist

85
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 2: terror that has really hurt the world since then.

86
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:44,799
Speaker 1: And he's been.

87
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 2: Someone as an ex president who, while he did do

88
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 2: some very important charity work, and I thank him for that.

89
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 2: I'm a monthly donor to Habitat for Humanity, which is

90
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 2: one of his big charities, So I certainly put my

91
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 2: money where my mouth is there. I've been a monthly

92
00:04:55,040 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 2: donor for thirty years. But he also embraced, literally embraced Hamas,

93
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 2: literally enabled a lot of people who said the most

94
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 2: incredible blood libels against Israel and the Jewish people. And

95
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 2: you can't really forgiven for that. And that'll be something

96
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 2: that we talk about today. But there's another thing going

97
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,919
Speaker 2: on today, Grace, because it's something that's unusual on sadly

98
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,679
Speaker 2: in America, and that's been happening for the last few days.

99
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 2: A group of politically active leaders and ordinary citizens are

100
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 2: having a debate.

101
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: Some of it was a little nasty, but.

102
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 2: No one was canceled or excommunicated or sent to wherever

103
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 2: Keith Olberman lives.

104
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: I'm talking about the h one B visa debate that.

105
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 2: Included Elon Musk, vivek Ramaswami, our own Steve Bannon, and

106
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 2: eventually President Trump weighed in. And now Elon Musk and

107
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 2: others are talking about solutions to a problem.

108
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: Grace. I know the regime.

109
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 2: News media is trying to call this a schism, and

110
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 2: it's like we have two popes. They're calling it a

111
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 2: schism in magaworld. But I have another word for it, democracy.

112
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 2: How about you?

113
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 4: No, I totally agree with you. And I was reading

114
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 4: a piece today by Marcus and he said the same thing.

115
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 4: But it's amazing because you when you start to see this, Jake,

116
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 4: and I was telling you about how on Friday this

117
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,479
Speaker 4: story was really brewing, and I'm mad at myself that

118
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 4: I didn't focus on it more. But it's crazy because

119
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 4: I at least hit the panic button a little bit,

120
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 4: because I my mindset is, oh gosh, we just we

121
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 4: just won this election. We're just starting to make a

122
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 4: lot of progress, and now we're going to start fighting

123
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 4: each other. What's wrong with us? Why can't we all

124
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 4: just shut up and get on the same page. And

125
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 4: that's me and that's not that's not the way it

126
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 4: should be. I have to kind of stop that instinct

127
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 4: of saying everyone get on the same page. Everyone, you know,

128
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,479
Speaker 4: march together here, like get your marching orders and just

129
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 4: make things happen. That's how the Democrats work. That's not

130
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 4: how we work. And there's a when you have a

131
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 4: giant tent like this, And that was one of the

132
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 4: most amazing ads when Trump was running for president was

133
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 4: when he had Rfk Junior, Tulci Gabbard, he had Alon Musk,

134
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 4: all of these people under this giant tent and you

135
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 4: had Kid Rock singing in the background, and you think, Wow,

136
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 4: these are some great minds and they're not going to

137
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 4: agree on everything, and that's okay. And that's how we

138
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 4: get to this place where, like you said, even in

139
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 4: the last twenty four hours, people have been offering solutions.

140
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 4: Do the visa programs in this country make sense in

141
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 4: in general?

142
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 5: Yes?

143
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 4: Do they need reform?

144
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: Absolutely?

145
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 4: And I think to have someone like Elon Musk, who's

146
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 4: benefited so much from these and who says, hey, I

147
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 4: wouldn't be here without this, to have him be able

148
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 4: to say I support this, but I hear you, and

149
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 4: I hear the changes that need to be that need

150
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 4: to go into effect, and I see how this is

151
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 4: being taken advantage of. That's really important too. And so

152
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 4: it's been really fun to watch over the last few

153
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 4: hours this kind of switch towards the positive. And also,

154
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 4: I will say it's a good reminder for all of

155
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 4: us that you do not want to squash out debate

156
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 4: and spirited discussion about difference as an opinion, because a

157
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 4: lot of things, and people forget this, in politics, a

158
00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 4: lot of things are nuanced. A lot of things are

159
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 4: not black. I think you lose a lot of that

160
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 4: on the Internet on Twitter, but a lot of things

161
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 4: have layers to them, and you be better off opening

162
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 4: up your mind a little bit and actually listening to people.

163
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I love how you have TV journalists talking

164
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 2: about how oh there's you know, these people are just

165
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 2: putting things just in black and white on the Internet

166
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 2: or on social media.

167
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: TV's been doing that.

168
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 2: For much longer because TV has time constraints, and you

169
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,119
Speaker 2: actually absolutely hear more voices and get more nuanced believe

170
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 2: it or not, on social media than you usually do

171
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 2: on TV news, with maybe this show and your show

172
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,319
Speaker 2: as an exception, all right, Grace. On the other hand,

173
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:41,559
Speaker 2: I see no real internal debate about the whole deportation

174
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 2: stuff about illegal migrants, especially the ones who commit further

175
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 2: crimes once they get here. Now and coming borders are

176
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 2: Tom Homan has been having the guts and I think

177
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 2: he's got a lot of guts to go on every

178
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,439
Speaker 2: regime news media show where they keep trying to demonize him,

179
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 2: They try to get him to back down on deportation,

180
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 2: but he never does. And Grace, how stupid and bad

181
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 2: will these people look when Homan makes violent criminal migrants

182
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 2: his first priority for deportation. They're gonna have to defend

183
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,559
Speaker 2: some of these horrific people. And I think he's setting

184
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 2: them up for that pretty well.

185
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I think one of the reasons, Jake, and

186
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 4: you're absolutely right on this, I think one of the

187
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 4: reasons that he's been able to be so steadfast in

188
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 4: his positions and not back down to this kind of

189
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 4: manipulative narrative that's put out there by the media, by

190
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 4: people in the network news where they try to paint

191
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 4: Republicans who want a strong border as somehow less humane

192
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 4: or less decent or less caring or compassionate than Democrats.

193
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,719
Speaker 4: Tom Holman knows the truth about that. And there was

194
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 4: a really interesting exchange a few years ago between him

195
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 4: and AOC or him and it might not have been AOC,

196
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 4: but it was a Democrat and a congressional hearing, and

197
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 4: he was explaining how if anyone knows the hurt that

198
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 4: is caused by these open borders. If anyone knows the

199
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:02,199
Speaker 4: pain that these children experience when they're sent here, sometimes alone,

200
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 4: sometimes at the hands of a coyote, it's Tom Holman,

201
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 4: and so he fully understands how having open borders, having

202
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 4: no law and order is actually the least humane way

203
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 4: to run a country for everyone involved. And that's been

204
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,839
Speaker 4: one of the biggest lies that has been pushed by

205
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 4: the left is that somehow Joe Biden, by coming in

206
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 4: and by eliminating a strong border and by welcoming everyone

207
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 4: to surge the border, that was his word, surge the border,

208
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 4: he's actually caused so much carnage and so much pain

209
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 4: unnecessarily to women, to children, to so many people who

210
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 4: have come here. And we're such a better nation, and

211
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 4: we're such a stronger nation, and we do so much

212
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 4: better for everyone when we have a strong border and

213
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:52,079
Speaker 4: when we enforce that border.

214
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, the compassion argument needs to be more

215
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 2: expanded again. We've allowed the left to get a monopoly

216
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:03,679
Speaker 2: on it. And there's nothing compassionate about massive illegal migration.

217
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 1: There's nothing.

218
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 2: It's almost like you would call it an attractive nuisance.

219
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 2: We bring people in, it's it's a sad situation. Grace Curley,

220
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 2: thanks so much.

221
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: For joining us here. Have a very happy New Year.

222
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 2: I know you're you're a prisoner of a blue state

223
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 2: like I am up there in Boston, but this is

224
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 2: where I think the best TV and radio commentary comes from.

225
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: So thank you so much for joining us.

226
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 4: Thanks for having me.

227
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 2: Jake all right, coming up, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is

228
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 2: a slow learner, or maybe he's just a never learner,

229
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 2: but we'll take a closer look at what his own

230
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 2: citizens are urging him to figure out when it comes

231
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 2: to illegal migrants on Chicago's streets.

232
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 1: And we'll also have.

233
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 2: The latest on this tragic plane crash in South Korea

234
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 2: that left almost two hundred people dead. American Sunrise early

235
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 2: edition will be right back.

236
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:15,559
Speaker 1: That is Portland, Maine.

237
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 2: My first job in TV was in Bangor, and that's

238
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,680
Speaker 2: how you pronounce it, by the way, Bangor, And that's

239
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 2: not that close to Portland. But when you've lived in

240
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 2: Maine for a while, you get to get.

241
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: You feel a little, you feel a little unique.

242
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,439
Speaker 2: By the way, they sell lobster everywhere in Maine, including

243
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 2: at the seven eleven and at the bookstores.

244
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 1: I think every business has the right to sell lobster.

245
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: So if you like lobster, go to me. All right,

246
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition.

247
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,559
Speaker 2: I'm Jake Novak, and this is a really tragic, some

248
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,599
Speaker 2: sad story. Just two two of the one hundred and

249
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 2: eighty one people aborted jetu Air seven thirty seven eight

250
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 2: hundred jets survived when the jet crashed off a runway

251
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 2: while trying to land in one, South Korea yesterday. Now,

252
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 2: investigators are still trying to determine what caused the crash.

253
00:12:58,200 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: But I want to make something clear.

254
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 2: This is not the Boeing seven thirty seven Max jet

255
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 2: that's had so many problems throughout the world over the

256
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,199
Speaker 2: last six or seven years. This is the Boeing seven

257
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 2: thirty seven eight hundred, which has a very good safety record.

258
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 2: But Boeing shares, by the way, right now are down

259
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 2: four percent. Not to be morbid and talk about money

260
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 2: right now, but Boeing shares are down four percent in

261
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 2: the pre market because there's just investors are worried that

262
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 2: there's another a jet problem at Boeing. All right, back

263
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 2: here in America, when will our blue state and blue

264
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 2: city politicians ever learn when it comes to welcoming illegal

265
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 2: migrants and using taxpayer money to house them, some politicians

266
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,079
Speaker 2: might start to learn the hard way. Here's what one

267
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 2: former border patrol agent had to say about it here

268
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 2: on Real America's Voice America Shines Donald Trump.

269
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 6: I worked under him. We had the most secure border

270
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 6: in the history, and we were about to have it

271
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 6: completely closed. And let me tell you something.

272
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: I'll bet a year's salary.

273
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,079
Speaker 6: I'll bet, in fact, I'll bet my whole pension on

274
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 6: Tom Homan walks into Chicago and if they tried to

275
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 6: put cuffs on him, he will run over everyone in Chicago. Him.

276
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 6: The Ice and other borbitral agents, and those Chicago ped

277
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 6: officers will turn on their own politicians and attack them

278
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 6: because they want those savages out of their city as well.

279
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 6: They have a problem. They have Venezuelan gangs destroying everything.

280
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 6: You're about to have a race riot in Chicago. I

281
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 6: did a documentary. I went down to the South Side.

282
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 6: I talked to all the gang members current and passed,

283
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 6: and they all told me we're going to war. Our

284
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 6: our Johnson and all the aldermen have turned on us

285
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 6: and are given all of the money and resources to

286
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 6: illegal aliens. Let me tell you some Tom Holman is

287
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 6: the best, absolute, best pick for the borders are. And

288
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 6: then over CBP Customs and Border Protection, the commissioner is

289
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 6: going to be Rodney Scott. He was the Border Patrol

290
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 6: chief under President Trump. You're talking about two men that

291
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 6: are completely aligned ideologically. They have different personalities and that's

292
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 6: what's going to make this partnership, with this marriage work

293
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 6: so well. And I'll echo what Tom Holman said, if

294
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 6: you're an illegal a, you better pack your bags.

295
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 2: America shines with Aubrey Shines airs every Saturday right here

296
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 2: at nine am Eastern time. Now, speaking of learning their lesson,

297
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 2: perhaps the mayor who needs to learn it the most

298
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 2: as we're talking about is Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson. Luckily

299
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 2: for him, he has lots of people in his town

300
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 2: willing to tell him off.

301
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: Check it out.

302
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 7: You're gonna spend our tax dollars to go, Michael rob Ready.

303
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 7: You said to take Trump to court to protect these illegals.

304
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 7: You said you gonna spend our tax dollars to take

305
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 7: Trump to court to protect these illegals if they trying

306
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 7: to come and yo yo here and your district. And

307
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 7: then you said they all of y'all and cahos with

308
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 7: each other to do with. Okay, so now we're about

309
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 7: to make y'all famous. We're gonna let all y'all con

310
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 7: stitions know who y'all bratt and for that, y'all wouldn't

311
00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 7: spend our tax dollars to protect illegals and to get

312
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 7: them legal services. So that's what we're doing. That's cool

313
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 7: because we're about to make all of y'all all the

314
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 7: this famous. Y'all think this has gone rat I think

315
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 7: not Pip Chicago Red. We're not playing.

316
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 1: By the way Mayor.

317
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 2: Mayor Johnson abruptly canceled the rest of that meeting not

318
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 2: long after those comments, because that woman had a bunch

319
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 2: of people following her with the same thing. But that

320
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 2: incident is just one example of how the tide I

321
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 2: really think maybe turning when it comes to sanctuary city

322
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 2: insanity and sadly the subway burning murder in New York

323
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 2: last week. I think that is what it will take

324
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 2: to create an unimpeachable argument against sanctuary cities.

325
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: Ask yourselves, at what.

326
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 2: Point will any New York City politician or any city

327
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 2: politician be able to defend using taxpayer money to keep

328
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 2: illegal migrants in the city without this horrific murder being

329
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 2: used as a counter argument against that. I don't think

330
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 2: that's ever going to happen. You have the video. Now,

331
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 2: everybody knows the story. Everybody knows how the person who

332
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 2: committed that crime most likely was deported and still came back.

333
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 2: It's one thing to accept these people, which was foolish

334
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 2: in the first place, but to use our tax money,

335
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 2: as that woman mentioned, to help keep them stay here,

336
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,400
Speaker 2: allow them to stay here when these things are happening.

337
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 2: I just don't think it's gonna last in America, Trump

338
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,360
Speaker 2: or no Trump, all right, there are still many other

339
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 2: outrages going on in our cities. And take Milwaukee for example.

340
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 2: A Jewish father and his son are facing serious charges

341
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 2: for tearing down this blatantly anti Semitic mural in the

342
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 2: middle of town.

343
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 1: Look at this.

344
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 2: Of course, the dozens of incidents where anti Semites have

345
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 2: torn down posters of hostages being held by Hamasa.

346
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: I faced no.

347
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 2: Legal consequences, but yeah, look at this mural with the

348
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 2: swasaka in the middle of the Jewish guitar. Milwaukee District

349
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,199
Speaker 2: Attorney John Chisholm has a lot to answer for if

350
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 2: he really decides to go through with prosecuting these Jewish

351
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 2: men for tearing down this incredibly offensive mural. It's part

352
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 2: of a long history, by the way, of creating a

353
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,160
Speaker 2: false equivalence between Jews and Nazis. It's what people who

354
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:10,360
Speaker 2: are guilty about the Holocaust do They like to tell themselves, Oh,

355
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 2: the Jews are just as bad. Can you imagine talking

356
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 2: about the victims of murder and saying, well, they kind

357
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 2: of had it coming. That's what's going on in Milwaukee

358
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 2: right now. John Chisholm, District Attorney in Milwaukee, needs to

359
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 2: drop that case.

360
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 1: All right.

361
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 2: Coming up here now on American Sunrise Early Edition, we

362
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 2: are winding up the year, and I have a question

363
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 2: for you. Which company do you think had the best

364
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 2: year in the stock market in twenty twenty four?

365
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:34,199
Speaker 1: You might be surprised by the answer.

366
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,239
Speaker 2: And speaking of high times, remember when they told us

367
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 2: that legalizing pot would bring great economic prosperity to all Wait,

368
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 2: don't see you hear how much of a drag marijuana

369
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 2: has been for investors this year?

370
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: Stay with us.

371
00:18:48,040 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 2: There's lots more American Sunrise Early Edition coming right up,

372
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,120
Speaker 2: all right, we're getting ready to start the final week

373
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 2: of trading for the stock market, and let's take a

374
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 2: look quickly where the markets are going to begin Today'm

375
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 2: going to start down. It's been a down month for

376
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 2: the stock market in December, but a.

377
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:19,400
Speaker 1: Very good year overall.

378
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 2: And still we're way up from where we were just

379
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 2: before President Trump was elected. Okay, what stock in all

380
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 2: of the S and P five hundred had the best

381
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,160
Speaker 2: year in twenty twenty four. No, it's not Ai, chip

382
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 2: maker in Nvidia, even though it's gotten.

383
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: Most of the news media attention.

384
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 2: Actually the winner this year is Defense Tech Innovator Volunteer.

385
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 2: For those of you who are Lord of the Rings fans,

386
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 2: you know where that name comes from. That was the

387
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:46,360
Speaker 2: little crystal ball type thingy. Its shares swored three hundred

388
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 2: and fifty three percent in twenty twenty four. Volunteer was

389
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 2: founded in two thousand and three by a number of

390
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 2: tech giants, including Trump supporter Peter deeal By the way.

391
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 2: It specializes in big data platforms for US defense. It's

392
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 2: got a lot of Pentagon contract. It trades at about

393
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 2: eighty dollars a share. Now you could have had it

394
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 2: for five bucks a share. Less than two years ago.

395
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 2: I know, I know, you missed.

396
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: Out, all right. Are you in the market for a

397
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:12,440
Speaker 1: new car, Well, you're in luck.

398
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 2: Prices have been stabilizing lately and experts are predicting even

399
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 2: better deals in twenty twenty five.

400
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 1: Why is that happening.

401
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 2: It's a simple matter of the law of supply and demand.

402
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 2: The major car makers are finally overcoming and their suppliers.

403
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 2: They're finally overcoming the supply issues that arose because of

404
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,439
Speaker 2: the COVID lockdowns a few years ago. Just wasn't enough supply.

405
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 2: Now they're getting the supply and they're coming along with

406
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 2: some decent financing deals. Also, if you're looking to buy

407
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 2: a car, you might want to wait just a few

408
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 2: more weeks. I think January is going to be a

409
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 2: big month for car sales.

410
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: Right.

411
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 2: The folks at Costco are jumping further into the DEI

412
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 2: pool when so many of their competitors are getting out

413
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 2: Walmart and some other major retailers. They've made announcements lately

414
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 2: that they're discontinuing DEI programming.

415
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: But Costco, for whatever.

416
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 2: Reason, is pushing back on activist shareholders who are trying

417
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 2: to pressure it to go the same way. Costco may

418
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 2: be feeling more strident about this because they've had a

419
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 2: really good year for its stock. It shares are of

420
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 2: forty two percent for twenty twenty four. But if the

421
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 2: bud Light boycott teaches us anything, those fortunes can change fast,

422
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 2: so Costco may want to watch itself.

423
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:20,879
Speaker 1: And then there's the big losers.

424
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 2: For twenty twenty four, And just about the worst sector

425
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:27,399
Speaker 2: of stocks this year has been the marijuana growers. The

426
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 2: leading fund for investing in cannabis is down a whopping

427
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,439
Speaker 2: fifty one percent this year and finishing up just at

428
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 2: about its all time lows.

429
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 1: The reasons, well, it turns out legal pot.

430
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 2: Sales are still underperforming just about everywhere, a lot of

431
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 2: people are still buying from illegal dealers, and there are

432
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 2: still plenty of legal hurdles to overcome, and people just

433
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 2: aren't all that interested in smoking pod all day. It's

434
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 2: not like coke or some other foods. I mean coca cola,

435
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 2: not cocaine. It's not like some other things when people

436
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 2: might have two or three a day and get about

437
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 2: their work, job, were applies.

438
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: You can't do that with pot. That's the way it goes,

439
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 1: all right.

440
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 2: Cable TV pioneer Charles Dolan has died at the age

441
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 2: of ninety eight. Dolan was one of the founders in

442
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 2: nineteen seventy two of Home Box Office that's what they

443
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 2: used to call HBO, by the way, and he founded

444
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 2: the Northeastern cable Giant Cable Vision in nineteen seventy three.

445
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 2: In nineteen eighty four, he started America's Movies Classics. He's

446
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 2: got a lot of things that he started that year.

447
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,880
Speaker 2: He also launched News twelve in suburban New York City.

448
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 2: That was the first twenty four hour cable news channel for.

449
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: Local news in the US.

450
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 2: Some of you watching may know about his son, James,

451
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 2: because he took over the family business and as a

452
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,679
Speaker 2: longtime owner of Madison Square Garden, the New York Rangers

453
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 2: and the New York Knicks. He's been hated by the

454
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 2: fans of those teams for a long time. But those

455
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 2: teams are doing better right now, though not the Rangers.

456
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 2: We'll talk about it another time. I know that's a

457
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 2: sore spot for our control room crews.

458
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,359
Speaker 1: I want to talk about all right.

459
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 2: Rock and roll and political pioneer Ted NuGen agrees with

460
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,639
Speaker 2: me that the Joe Biden pardons and clemencys in recent

461
00:22:55,640 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 2: weeks constitute a real national emergency and a constitute crisis.

462
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 1: Here's what Ted had to say.

463
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 2: About it right here on America's Real America's Voice this weekend.

464
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,160
Speaker 5: And if we had people in charge of our government

465
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:16,880
Speaker 5: that would actually think, they wouldn't let Joe Biden pardon rapists, torturers,

466
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 5: and murderers who rape and torture little girls in front

467
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:25,679
Speaker 5: of their mother, slice their throats, and.

468
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 8: Then kill them all. And this demonic punk, the hero

469
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:37,680
Speaker 8: of liberals and detment crafts, the king of.

470
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 5: The Baraco Obama whoopee Goldberg, Hillary Clinton fan club, Joe

471
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 5: Biden shows mercy and pardons people who rape, torture, and

472
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 5: decapitate people.

473
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 9: In front of their family members because they deserve mercy.

474
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 9: They don't deserve mercy. If they do deserve mercy, it

475
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,679
Speaker 9: would be just keeping them in a cage for the

476
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 9: rest of their lives and feeding them warm, tainted water

477
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:13,639
Speaker 9: with cold coffee and stale bread. Though I would rather

478
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 9: that the mother who was there watching this illegal invader

479
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 9: from Guatemala or Venezuela or wherever he's from, that our

480
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 9: government welcomed into our country instead of that mother being

481
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 9: forced to watch him rape and torture her daughters, she

482
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 9: should have pulled out a thirty eight and filled him.

483
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 1: Full of lead.

484
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 2: Morning everybody, Okay, Ted NuGen Spirit Campfire airs hear on

485
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,400
Speaker 2: Real America's Voice every Saturday at four pm Eastern Time.

486
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 1: But this is another opportunity.

487
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,479
Speaker 2: To discuss the realities about the death penalty in America.

488
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 2: Remember Joe Biden commuted the death penalties of these horrific murderers.

489
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,439
Speaker 2: And yes, you might say yourself, boy, that's still a

490
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,440
Speaker 2: tough punishment life in prison. Again, I have to remind

491
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 2: you that scenario that Ted was just talking about, where

492
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 2: they have just stale water and cold coffee. That's not

493
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 2: the life that they have in federal prison. I'm not

494
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 2: saying that they're in a spa either, but a lot

495
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,640
Speaker 2: of these are very very disturbed people who are now

496
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 2: in an environment with other very very disturbed people. And

497
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 2: the fact is their life in prison situation is not

498
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 2: like it would be for you and me.

499
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,640
Speaker 1: A lot of it is the perfect environment for them.

500
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 2: Sadly, it's good that they're behind bars, but the death

501
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 2: penalty in America is not being debated properly.

502
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 1: In fact, it's not being debated at all.

503
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 2: We had these Biden commutations under the cover of night,

504
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 2: and there's nothing we can really do about it unless

505
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 2: we can prove that someone else signed those commutations and

506
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 2: that Joe Biden really wasn't aware of it, and that's

507
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:51,639
Speaker 2: going to be a tough one. Hopefully someone will speak

508
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 2: up about that, but if they don't, there's nothing we

509
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:54,479
Speaker 2: can do about it.

510
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 10: Now.

511
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 2: I don't mind having the death penalty debate in America.

512
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,479
Speaker 2: I really don't. The fact is though they the anti

513
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,639
Speaker 2: death penalty forces don't want to have a debate.

514
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 1: They act in the shadows.

515
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,439
Speaker 2: They do things like harass the corporate boards of the

516
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 2: companies that make the chemicals for the humane lethal injections

517
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 2: that are used instead of firing squads are hanging, and

518
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,959
Speaker 2: they literally allow these drugs to become in short supply.

519
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 2: So what do the states who have lethal injection do well?

520
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 2: Some of them they sometimes they do delay the executions,

521
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 2: but other times they just go ahead with it with

522
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:30,199
Speaker 2: expire drugs, which apparently is much much more painful. This

523
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,119
Speaker 2: is what they do. They don't have a real debate,

524
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 2: and they claim they're being humane. Spoiler alert, they're not

525
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 2: being humane again. I'm willing to have the death penalty argument, folks,

526
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 2: but they're not. And that's a huge problem because this

527
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,439
Speaker 2: is an important policy, whether you're for it or against it.

528
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,919
Speaker 2: All right, coming up, a massive lawsuit has been filed

529
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 2: by the January sixth protesters based on civil rights violations,

530
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,120
Speaker 2: and they're still enduring them. By the way, wait until

531
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 2: you hear how much money they're asking for and just

532
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:01,160
Speaker 2: how much of Jimmy Carter's real legacy will be discussed

533
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 2: today and how much of it will be just fluffed.

534
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,640
Speaker 2: We'll dig into the truth when American Sunrise early edition

535
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:22,879
Speaker 2: comes right back. It's Monday, December thirtieth. Here are some

536
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,160
Speaker 2: of the top stories this morning. Jimmy Carter, America's thirty

537
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,160
Speaker 2: ninth president, has died at age one hundred. He will

538
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 2: be lionized by the regime news meeting today. He can

539
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 2: be respectful, but we're going to look at his real legacy. Meanwhile,

540
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 2: America's forty fifth and forty seventh president is weighing in

541
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 2: on a healthy debate about immigration and tech jobs that

542
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 2: included Elon Musk. Several groups inside the big tent Republican

543
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,919
Speaker 2: Party had some spirited arguments, but now the focus is

544
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 2: on a solution that is what we call democracy.

545
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,159
Speaker 1: Many of the January.

546
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 2: Sixth protesters, who face massive prosecution, have put together a

547
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,200
Speaker 2: class action lawsuit of their own against the Justice Department,

548
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 2: and the amount that they're asking for in this case

549
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:14,719
Speaker 2: is eye popping. After all those years of telling us

550
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 2: he never met with his son Hunter's business partners, here

551
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 2: we have the photographic evidence that Joe Biden not only

552
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,919
Speaker 2: met them, he helped introduce them to China's communist leaders.

553
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:25,400
Speaker 1: Oops.

554
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 2: And speaking of Joe Biden, he's reportedly telling everyone he

555
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 2: would have won the election had he stayed in the race.

556
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 2: Welcome back to American Sunrise early edition.

557
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 1: I'm Jake Novak.

558
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 2: Now today much of the nation will pause to remember

559
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 2: President Jimmy Carter, and we can all do that respectfully

560
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 2: without sugarcoating or just playing lying about the peanut farmer

561
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 2: from planes. Joining me now to do that is Kevin Smith.

562
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 2: He's the host of the Loud Majority on Rumble, and

563
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 2: Kevin I never met Jimmy Carter personally, so I don't

564
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 2: have anything bad to say him about him personally, but

565
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 2: as president and as a quasi diplomat for the forty

566
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 2: four years after he left the White House.

567
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 1: I think he was a disaster, how about you, Absolutely.

568
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 11: You know, honestly, And I just want to start off

569
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 11: by saying, you know, one hundred years, God bless him.

570
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 11: You know, that's an incredible feat. He seemed to do

571
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 11: great work when he left office, but as a president

572
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 11: he was an abject failure. Whether it was the gas

573
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 11: lines that we saw in nineteen eighty, whether it was

574
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 11: the four hundred and forty four days of the Iran

575
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 11: hostage crisis, he was an abject failure as a president. Now,

576
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 11: with that being said, that doesn't make him a bad person.

577
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 11: That doesn't mean that he didn't do good things afterwards.

578
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 11: He actually has a rather inspiring story for the people

579
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 11: like to call him the every man President. He went

580
00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 11: from state senator to president in thirteen really giving the

581
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 11: sort of mantra that you know, anybody can become president

582
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 11: if you're here in the right place at the right time.

583
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 10: You get a little bit lucky.

584
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 11: But perhaps maybe not everybody is cut out for that job.

585
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you listen, there were some things he did

586
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 2: as an ex president that were good. I said in

587
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 2: the other half hour you know, Habitat for Humanity I

588
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 2: think is a great is a great charity. I've been

589
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 2: a monthly giver to Habitat for Humanity. It's just an

590
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 2: automatic thing out of my bank account of my credit

591
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 2: card for almost like thirty years. So I'm certainly not

592
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 2: demonizing everything that he touched, but as an ex president,

593
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 2: in addition to that, and that's the good stuff.

594
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 1: In addition to that, he.

595
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 2: Literally embraced hamas he's literally responsible for this blood libel

596
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 2: that Israel is in apartheid state. He had a book

597
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 2: with that title. There's a lot of I'm sorry, there's

598
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 2: there's really a lot of blood on his hands. And again,

599
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 2: when people say you shouldn't speak ill of the dead,

600
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 2: they're talking about speaking ill of the dead at the funeral,

601
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 2: at the wake, in front of the family. I would

602
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 2: never do that. I'm just talking about a man who

603
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 2: had a public life. He was president of the United States,

604
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 2: then he acted as a diplomat, and he made errors

605
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 2: that cost many, many lives.

606
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 1: And unfortunately, this.

607
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 2: Is the day that we do have to talk about it,

608
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 2: because this is when the history is documented. This is

609
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 2: when they're going to write the obituaries and if you're

610
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 2: gonna have a history about you. You really have to

611
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 2: talk about your actual history. And again no, because respect

612
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 2: for that, but then you have to talk about the record.

613
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 10: No, you're absolutely right.

614
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 11: And obviously when it comes to somebody in public life

615
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 11: like this, you know, you have to be honest about

616
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 11: what they did. And you know, with any person there

617
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 11: was good. With any with every person there is bad.

618
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 11: But as you said, the legacy media is going to

619
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 11: gloss over all of the band, and you know they're

620
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 11: going to focus on the peanut farmer who became president

621
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 11: of the United States.

622
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 10: They're going to ignore, you know, all the stuff that

623
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 10: went on while he.

624
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 11: Was president and crushing recession, the Iran hostage crisis. Really

625
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 11: the speech he gave where he said, this is the

626
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 11: first time in American history people feel like next five

627
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 11: years is gonna be worse in the last five years.

628
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 11: One of the most demoralizing speeches in presidential history.

629
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, and there's ways to it that he could have

630
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 2: made that statement. He could have just said, let's make

631
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 2: America great again. He could have said that instead of

632
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 2: just leaving it at that. All right, Kevin, let's talk

633
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 2: about how President Trump. You know, there's a lot of

634
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,719
Speaker 2: talk about how he will pardon many of the unjustly

635
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 2: prosecuted and persecuted January sixth protesters very early in his presidency.

636
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 2: But on top of that, a group of the January

637
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 2: six ers have banded together to file a class action

638
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 2: lawsuit against the Justice Department for fifty billion with the

639
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 2: B dollars. Now, Kevin, do you think this lawsuit has

640
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 2: a chance or is this case really about something other

641
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 2: than money?

642
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 1: Maybe they'll get something else out of this.

643
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 10: Well, look, do I think they're gonna get their fifty billion?

644
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 10: Probably not.

645
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 11: However, getting the Department of Justice into discovery would be

646
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 11: a win in and of itself, because then we could

647
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 11: start to get some of those documents. Then we could

648
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,479
Speaker 11: start to see what the January sixth Committee was actually

649
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 11: up to behind closed doors.

650
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 10: What evidence did they hide?

651
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 11: What did people like Merrick Garland say in those private emails?

652
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 11: How is it that they found a way to keep

653
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 11: somebody like ray Epps off of the prosecutorial list for

654
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 11: so long while arresting grandmothers in Alaska. Nothing about these

655
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 11: prosecutions made sense. Some of the penalties, some of the

656
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 11: convictions and sentences seemed to be out of control based

657
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 11: on the severity of the crime. And so if they

658
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 11: can get this into discovery, I think that's a win

659
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 11: in and of itself.

660
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, Kevin, Joe Biden, Leslie Stall, and those

661
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 2: fifty one intelligence community folks all told us for years

662
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 2: that Joe Biden never met with Hunter Biden's Chinese business partners.

663
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 2: But there it is, good old Joe Biden as vice

664
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 2: president schmoozing with his son, Hunter's business partners in China.

665
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 2: People saw the photographic evidence of it just a couple

666
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 2: of days ago. We had it on earlier in the show,

667
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 2: and he's introducing them to all these communist leaders.

668
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 1: Kevin.

669
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 2: The regime media is insisting now they're saying this is

670
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 2: nothing new. So first they told us it wasn't true,

671
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 2: and now that we see the picture as you see

672
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:12,239
Speaker 2: right now, they're saying it wasn't true. That wasn't the

673
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 2: tone they took four years ago. I don't really know

674
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 2: how they're gonna continue with this. He's not gonna be

675
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,359
Speaker 2: president anymore. Just a few more days, they're still gonna

676
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 2: carry this guy's water.

677
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 1: I can't believe this.

678
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 11: Well, you know, they're really leading to their own demise

679
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:27,839
Speaker 11: with this sort of stuff, and any person that looked

680
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 11: at this rationally knew that he talked to his son

681
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 11: about business. I mean, if you're watching this, when you

682
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 11: go home to Sunday dinner with your children or with

683
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 11: your parents, you could say, hey, son, how's work? Like

684
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 11: every person does that. You don't think Joe Biden does

685
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 11: that when his son is making money in Kazakhstan, or

686
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:49,840
Speaker 11: in Mongolia or in the Ukraine.

687
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,839
Speaker 10: Hey, how was your trip to Kiev? Like?

688
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 11: Just to think that that's not a conversation happening at

689
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 11: the dinner table when every other person does that is

690
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:01,880
Speaker 11: pretty astounding.

691
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 10: But the media turning a blind.

692
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,840
Speaker 11: Eye to this for so long, for so long, just

693
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:11,400
Speaker 11: shows you that they were purposefully ignorant. They covered their ears,

694
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 11: and they didn't want to They didn't want to hear

695
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 11: any evidence to the contrary. And it's really the reason

696
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,360
Speaker 11: why we're seeing so many of these networks dying of

697
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 11: slow death.

698
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's not only partisanship, Kevin, it's also

699
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 2: you're missing on a great story. This is a great

700
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 2: story of corruption, a great story of a way to

701
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:32,719
Speaker 2: talk about how actually there may not have been many

702
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,480
Speaker 2: laws broken here, and that's the problem. We need to

703
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,279
Speaker 2: start passing some laws so that you can actually not

704
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:40,880
Speaker 2: bribe a politician by by getting money to the child

705
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 2: or to a friend. But they missed out on a

706
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 2: big story too. But Kevin, in the midst of all

707
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 2: of this, Joe Biden is sure America still loves him.

708
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,799
Speaker 2: In fact, we have reports that Joe is telling just

709
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,919
Speaker 2: about anyone who will listen these days, that he would

710
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 2: have defeated Donald Trump had he stayed in the presidential

711
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,440
Speaker 2: racist here, Kevin, is anyone buying this, Yes.

712
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 10: No, nobody's buying it.

713
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,400
Speaker 11: But Joe Biden is now left in that unique position

714
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,359
Speaker 11: where he can talk about what could have been. You know,

715
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,480
Speaker 11: he's the starting quarterback that got taken out for the backup,

716
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 11: and he could for the rest of his life, for

717
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 11: the rest of his legacy. He's now able to say, well,

718
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,760
Speaker 11: if he had stuck with me, things would have been different,

719
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 11: because nobody can refute that fact. Obviously, we saw he

720
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 11: was doing just as badly, if not as badly, in

721
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 11: the polls.

722
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:27,879
Speaker 10: Now, with that being said, I.

723
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:31,720
Speaker 11: Don't think I don't I genuinely don't think Democrats really

724
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 11: thought Kamala Harris was going to be as bad as

725
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 11: she was.

726
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,239
Speaker 10: But you know, I.

727
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 11: Gotta say, I don't think it would have went any differently.

728
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 11: In fact, I think that as we got more debates,

729
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:47,560
Speaker 11: as we got more public appearances, I think that the

730
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 11: decline would have been so obvious that they would have

731
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 11: been stuck with him.

732
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:55,720
Speaker 10: We could have seen a Reagan type victory for President Trump.

733
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:57,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

734
00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:59,800
Speaker 2: I mean, remember, folks, he dropped out or was forced

735
00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 2: out after that debacle of a debate on June twenty seven,

736
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 2: not before. Okay, there's no way he wins that election

737
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,160
Speaker 2: after that debate. All right, Kevin. Maybe I'm the exception,

738
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,239
Speaker 2: but I think the heavy debate Trump supporters have been

739
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 2: having over the last few days has been pretty healthy.

740
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,719
Speaker 1: I'm talking about this H one B visa debate. It

741
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 1: included Elon Musk, the.

742
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 2: Vek Ramaswami, our own Steve Bannon here at Ravin. Eventually

743
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,840
Speaker 2: President Trump weighed in, and now Elon Musker was talking

744
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,400
Speaker 2: about how the H one B is so so important

745
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 2: and that's why I'm here. Now he's talking about solutions.

746
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 2: I mean, one of the last things he said over

747
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 2: the weekend was, Hey, I'm not saying this program isn't broken.

748
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 2: We have to fix it. So look, the regime news

749
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,319
Speaker 2: media wants to call it a schism, wants to call

750
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,520
Speaker 2: it a civil war, although I've noticed they've had to

751
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,000
Speaker 2: tone it down because no one has really gotten that crazy.

752
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 2: But you know what, this is called democracy, and I

753
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 2: think that the reason why they're making a big deal

754
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,320
Speaker 2: at it is not only because they like to pile

755
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 2: on Trump and his supporters, but also because the left

756
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 2: has forgotten what democracy even looks like.

757
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:00,319
Speaker 10: You know what.

758
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,840
Speaker 11: Even more than that, I think it really refutes that

759
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 11: notion of the Maga cult that we've heard so much about.

760
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 11: President Trump and his top advisors like Elon Musk said something,

761
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 11: the base didn't like it, and we voiced our opinion

762
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:17,600
Speaker 11: on it, and now people are sitting there going, Okay,

763
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:19,840
Speaker 11: maybe we have to course correct, Maybe we have to

764
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,360
Speaker 11: adjust here, maybe we have to change things there, because

765
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 11: that is the Republican Party. I don't have to agree

766
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:28,239
Speaker 11: with Elon Musk on one hundred percent of things to

767
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 11: know that he's on the same side as me. I

768
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 11: don't have to agree with Vivek. I don't even have

769
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,279
Speaker 11: to agree with President Trump on everything. I agree with

770
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,880
Speaker 11: the the movement of the Make America Great again idea.

771
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 11: But if they say something that we don't like, it

772
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,120
Speaker 11: shows that they actually listen to us. They actually listen

773
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,240
Speaker 11: to the to the crowd on X, they actually listen

774
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 11: to the base, the people that put them there, and

775
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,439
Speaker 11: it's nice to see that they are beginning to course

776
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 11: correct when they have overstepped or or said something out.

777
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 10: Of line with what the America for Dates wants.

778
00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 2: Kevin Smith from the Loud Majority, thank you so much

779
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 2: for joining us. And for those of you who don't know,

780
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:09,440
Speaker 2: he had a little bit of a health scare this weekend.

781
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 1: He's fine, so thank God for that. Thank you so

782
00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:11,960
Speaker 1: much much.

783
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 2: And happy New Year, by the way, Mary, happy to you, Jake,

784
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 2: thank you. All right, coming up, the great David Brody

785
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,959
Speaker 2: will join us. We will bring our centuries centuries worth

786
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 2: of perspective on former President Jimmy Carter that you simply

787
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,239
Speaker 2: won't get anywhere else. Okay, we're not that old, but

788
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 2: you're gonna hear stuff you haven't heard elsewhere, I promise you.

789
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,960
Speaker 2: On that American Sunrise Early edition will be right back.

790
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 1: Montalk point the end of Long Island. That's where the

791
00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 1: show is coming from you today. Okay, now's the time.

792
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:02,920
Speaker 2: On American Sunrise early edition when David Brody from The

793
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 2: Big Show joins us right now, and David, obviously, you know,

794
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,760
Speaker 2: you know my first rule of journalism. You cannot ignore

795
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 2: the elephant in the room. And obviously, the big story

796
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 2: today is the passing away of former President Jimmy Carter.

797
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 2: And of course underline, of course we respectfully noted his passing,

798
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 2: certainly extend our condolences to those who knew him and

799
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 2: loved him and his family. But this was a public figure,

800
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 2: and there's an important day. This is when the obituaries

801
00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:31,440
Speaker 2: are going to be written. This is when a lot

802
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 2: of the historical record will be codified for Jimmy Carter.

803
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 2: And so we must look at his record as a

804
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:42,360
Speaker 2: public figure today honestly, fairly and critically. And I'm sorry,

805
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 2: I think that more than just being a failed president,

806
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,319
Speaker 2: I think that his years after president, despite some of

807
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,719
Speaker 2: his charity work, and I am a monthly donor to

808
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 2: Habitat for Humanity, so I have some respect for that,

809
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 2: but he also helped embrace terrorism.

810
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:57,720
Speaker 1: He helped embrace the blood libels.

811
00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:00,839
Speaker 2: Against the Jewish people in Israel, calling in an apartheid state,

812
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 2: which is just nothing could be further from the truth,

813
00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:05,319
Speaker 2: and so I'm sorry. I think that we do need

814
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:07,360
Speaker 2: to dig into the man's record. That's what being in

815
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:08,160
Speaker 2: public life.

816
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 1: Is all about.

817
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,279
Speaker 12: Well, I don't disagree with anything you said there, Jake.

818
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:14,719
Speaker 12: You know, yeah, there feels like there needs to be

819
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 12: a bit of a twenty four hour decorum in a way,

820
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,919
Speaker 12: but on the twenty fifth hour, let's knock ourselves out.

821
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:25,720
Speaker 1: But no, I think you're right things need to be said.

822
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 12: That may be uncomfortable, especially after you know we're doing

823
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,920
Speaker 12: the oh bit here, but I think look, we can

824
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:35,880
Speaker 12: say whatever we want. Historians can say whatever they want.

825
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,480
Speaker 12: But the American people had their verdict back in the

826
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 12: late seventies and they ushered Trump Trump listen to me,

827
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,200
Speaker 12: ushered Carter out of office back then, and they made

828
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,799
Speaker 12: the ultimate verdict. That's how history will remember Jimmy Carter

829
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:50,920
Speaker 12: not just as a failed president, but Americans saw a

830
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 12: week president.

831
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:53,840
Speaker 1: They saw a president they didn't trust. They saw a

832
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 1: president that just failed in.

833
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,759
Speaker 12: Every level, even with the Iran hostages when they tried

834
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,359
Speaker 12: to in essence free some of them.

835
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 1: We know about the botched helicopter response there as well.

836
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 12: And remember this is a president at the time Jake

837
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 12: who went talking about the oil and gas issues, and

838
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:12,799
Speaker 12: not just inflation, but just you know, we know about

839
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:13,680
Speaker 12: the long gas lines.

840
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:14,359
Speaker 1: I was in those.

841
00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:16,560
Speaker 12: I was about thirteen years old. I wasn't driving, but

842
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:20,000
Speaker 12: I was in a car, and I remember when the

843
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 12: oil and gas issues were such a big deal. He

844
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 12: was the one that put on a sweater, of course,

845
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 12: and said, listen, let's just turn down the thermostat a

846
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 12: little bit.

847
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 1: Huh.

848
00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:31,640
Speaker 12: And Americans were like, really, really, that's your answer, turned

849
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 12: down the thermostat. So I mean, you know, this is

850
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 12: the type of stuff. But there's so much more I

851
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 12: want to say. I will say quickly, and I'll try

852
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 12: to make this brief. But you can make the argument

853
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:44,279
Speaker 12: that the religious right, which was already on an ascendancy,

854
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 12: you know view if you will, really took had lift off,

855
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 12: if you will, after Jimmy Carter. Because remember Jimmy Carter

856
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:57,480
Speaker 12: would have to evangelical vote in the nineteen seventies when

857
00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:00,279
Speaker 12: he won in the late seventies, and then it just

858
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 12: cratered after that.

859
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 1: In nineteen eighty Reagan came along. And why was that Well.

860
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,480
Speaker 12: One of the reasons was is because Jimmy Carter took

861
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 12: away in nineteen seventy eight, his administration took away the

862
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:13,799
Speaker 12: tax exemption for private Christian schools. Now, I know there

863
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 12: was a segregation aspect to that in terms of what

864
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 12: they were saying at the time that many of these

865
00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:21,920
Speaker 12: Christian schools were, you know, just having white kids only,

866
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 12: and they wanted to kind of tamp down obviously and

867
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,719
Speaker 12: scale back on that. The private Christian schools will see

868
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 12: it differently. The bottom line is is that when he

869
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 12: did that, when he took away the tax exemption status

870
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:37,799
Speaker 12: for Christian schools in America, that turned many of those

871
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 12: religious right folks that actually voted for Carter in nineteen

872
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:42,960
Speaker 12: seventy six, it turned him against them in nineteen eighty,

873
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:44,440
Speaker 12: and of course Reigan came along and it was a

874
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:45,680
Speaker 12: perfect storm, if you will.

875
00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:49,280
Speaker 1: So those are some of my recollections. Yeah, no, that's

876
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:50,360
Speaker 1: a perfect point. You know.

877
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:52,239
Speaker 2: One of the things you own here elsewhere is that,

878
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 2: you know, Jimmy Carter ran for governor and won in

879
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:58,080
Speaker 2: nineteen seventy in Georgia, and they basically presented him as a.

880
00:43:58,080 --> 00:43:59,239
Speaker 1: Good old boy. Yeah.

881
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 2: I found all the campaign ads years ago that he ran.

882
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 2: They were scrubbed from the Internet for a while. They're

883
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:06,439
Speaker 2: back available now on YouTube you can find them. There's

884
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:08,840
Speaker 2: not one black person in any one of his ads.

885
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:10,880
Speaker 2: He's talking to a bunch of good old boys in

886
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,680
Speaker 2: all the video. And then he shocked all of Georgia

887
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,600
Speaker 2: in his inaugural address saying he was going to desegregate

888
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:16,919
Speaker 2: the state.

889
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:17,880
Speaker 1: Now, I'm all for that.

890
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:21,160
Speaker 2: I think that's actually his greatest achievement as a politician.

891
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:23,799
Speaker 2: But importantly, it should also be noted that he had

892
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:25,880
Speaker 2: to do it in a sneaky way, and so for

893
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,720
Speaker 2: the rest of his career he decided to virtue signal

894
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 2: himself for a bunch of stuff that wasn't good. I

895
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 2: think he was trying to make up with the fact

896
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:34,960
Speaker 2: that he had to be quiet about his one true achievement.

897
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:36,839
Speaker 1: That's something other people won't talk about.

898
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 2: Another thing people won't talk about is that actually he

899
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 2: was already very unpopular the day he took the oath

900
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:45,799
Speaker 2: of office. His polls started to crater, and had the

901
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,960
Speaker 2: election been two weeks later against Jerry Ford, I really

902
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:50,960
Speaker 2: think he would have lost because and by the time

903
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 2: he took the oath of all this, people already were

904
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:54,799
Speaker 2: not liking him. So people need to remember that he

905
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 2: already was kind of behind the eight ball. All right,

906
00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,680
